32726 | ... What do you think of this; bring some humans up here and we''ll run a torture party for our fiends? |
32726 | But how can that be? |
32726 | Do you realize what you''re asking of us? |
32726 | I thought you said you were finding it hard to do? |
32726 | What difference does that make? |
32726 | What the heck we got them for anyway? 32726 Why all this fuss?" |
32726 | Why was n''t I told about it? |
32726 | Why? |
32726 | And a third asked:"Who?" |
32726 | And what is occupying your time now? |
32726 | Another said:"How, when...?" |
32726 | But have either of you two had any feelings for us?" |
32726 | But the oldest and wisest of them said:"Why ca n''t we be normal monsters and not act like we''re expected to? |
32726 | But what can a B. E. M. expect? |
32726 | But what in the name of all that was unmentionable was she doing in the Gloating Chamber? |

32726 | Ca n''t you see these things are n''t real? |
32726 | Children...?" |
32726 | Do I have to sit by myself every day? |
32726 | Everything is just horrible, is n''t it? |
32726 | Had she any idea of what that entailed? |
32726 | Have you even so much as gone to the forest of Evil Contractions to capture a giant in the past six months? |
32726 | In the first place have you ever met a human?" |
32726 | Is n''t peace enough for us? |
32726 | Jack, old boy, do you realize we''re setting science- fiction back a hundred years?" |
32726 | Must we look for trouble?" |
32726 | She started in even before he quite reached her side:"Where is everybody? |
32726 | Something about a picnic.... Then why had the wall slid back? |
32726 | The voice seemed to come from the very heart of this fog:"... Well, perhaps things will be different soon...?" |
32726 | There has n''t been a good torture since, since... when_ was_ the last time there was a torture party?" |
32726 | Where are the torturers? |
32726 | Where is everybody...?" |
32726 | _ Must_ you have your eyeballs massaged_ everyday_? |
29594 | And forage for yourselves? |
29594 | Are ye all ready? |
29594 | By the way, when we''ve caught our rebels, where is the prison to be? |
29594 | Charley,exclaimed the Colonel, severely,"what do you mean, sir? |
29594 | Does any one object? |
29594 | Is it possible we have been here a week? |
29594 | Mrs. Lockitt, where is papa? |
29594 | Murder, what_ shall_ we do? |
29594 | Noise? 29594 Oh, where have they gone to? |
29594 | Take me with you? |
29594 | Then we are friends again? |
29594 | What say? 29594 What shall I do?" |
29594 | Who''ll put me there? |
29594 | Why, Tom, how can you talk so? 29594 Why, Tom, what is the matter? |
29594 | Yes, but how''s General McClellan to hear anything about it? |
29594 | You hear what the Colonel says,said George, sternly;"will you retract?" |
29594 | Are you mad at us?" |
29594 | Arter a while he says,''Jerry, wo n''t you sing me the hymn as I taught you aboard the transport? |
29594 | But how am I to account for the presence of the military, mademoiselle?" |
29594 | Does that suit your ideas?" |
29594 | Fred, what''s the matter? |
29594 | Get into ranks? |
29594 | How dare you treat a young gentleman so on my place? |
29594 | I sarched an''sarched till my heart were almost broke, an at last I cried out,''Oh Bill, my mate, whar be you?'' |
29594 | I''m sure I have n''t taken advantage of being Colonel to be domineering; have I, boys?" |
29594 | Jerry, in his newest suit of regimentals, bustled about here and there, and presently his voice was heard shouting,"Are ye all ready now? |
29594 | Let us alone, will you?" |
29594 | Mamma, may n''t I recruit a regiment and camp out too?" |
29594 | So you are really going away?" |
29594 | The boys all burst out laughing at this dreadful disaster, and George said,"You were n''t lighting it with the end of your nose, were you?" |
29594 | There was perfectly dead silence for a moment; then the voice of Mr. Schermerhorn was heard calling,"Come, boys, are you ready? |
29594 | What had happened? |
29594 | What has become of Madame, please?" |
29594 | Where are you going, Tom?" |
29594 | Why do n''t you come to your boy?'' |
29594 | Will you let us do it, please?" |
29594 | Wo n''t that be splendid? |
29594 | You know old Jerry that I told you about? |
29594 | about the Lord our Captin?'' |
29594 | ca n''t you play like the rest of us? |
29594 | cried George, turning white with rage;"do you mean to say that you_ admire_ the South for seceding?" |
29594 | cried Tom, with sparkling eyes;"and, Fred, if you get promoted before me, promise you will have me in your regiment, wo n''t you?" |
29594 | exclaimed one of the ladies,"what in the world is all this?" |
29594 | he exclaimed,"how do you come to be here? |
29594 | interrupted Peter;"ca n''t you tell ma I''ve joined the army for the war? |
29594 | or have we paid well enough already for our court martial?" |
29594 | why on earth must they? |
29594 | why, what makes you think so?" |
29594 | why, you ca n''t think I would leave you, surely?" |
29594 | wot-- wrong agin? |
29593 | And you, George, will you? |
29593 | But what has become of Titehugge?'' 29593 Do n''t you know all the real Zouaves have their hair cut as short as anything? |
29593 | Do n''t you know, Doctor, that we''ve organized a regiment? |
29593 | Have you and George read all your books? |
29593 | Have you? 29593 Helen, do_ you_ know better than_ God_?" |
29593 | How many apples, by the way Peter? |
29593 | I say, Capting,said a tall Yankee in a fur hat, to Peter,"what may yew calculate dewing on Long Island?" |
29593 | Is there any end to the mischief of boys? |
29593 | Noble? 29593 Now then, boys, who''ll turn out?" |
29593 | Now, then, who''ll be scissorized first? |
29593 | Oh, is it? 29593 To be sure I will,"said Aunt Fanny,"but what is your plan?" |
29593 | What business has the country to be awake and getting into mischief in the middle of the night? |
29593 | What is that? |
29593 | Where could they have come from? |
29593 | Where is your encampment to be? |
29593 | Why what? |
29593 | Why, how, mamma? |
29593 | Why, how? |
29593 | Why, on the street corners-- real good ice cream, too-- don''t you know that? |
29593 | Why, was n''t I in a hurry to serve my country? 29593 Will you have some breakfast, Peter?" |
29593 | Yes, sir, the Dashahed Zouaves; have n''t you heard of them? |
29593 | Yew ha''n''t got no one to look arter you? |
29593 | ( here Freddy could n''t help cutting another caper,)"and cook our own dinners, and-- oh, mother, may n''t I go? |
29593 | All the other cubs in the wood can run about as they please, and why should we be kept in this poky old cave? |
29593 | But how was this difficult matter of sock and stocking to be settled? |
29593 | But what was that right opposite his bed? |
29593 | Did you ever see anything so splendid in your life? |
29593 | Do you happen to know that there is a tree near here, which is hollow from root to branches, and filled with wild bees''combs and honey?'' |
29593 | Guess what it is?" |
29593 | Have you any idea, Fred?" |
29593 | He was met by Helen at the door with an"Oh, George, what is it?" |
29593 | How can you suppose I would do such a shabby thing? |
29593 | How do you think you would like that?" |
29593 | How long is your father willing you should have it?" |
29593 | I remember well the first time I called upon his mistress, I inquired,"Does Mrs. Jourdain live here?" |
29593 | Its fortunate possessor, nothing abashed, went on,"But dew tell, wha-- at on airth_ dew_ you call yourselves?" |
29593 | May n''t I, mother? |
29593 | No one can, without constant watchfulness and prayer for help from above; but you can try, will you?" |
29593 | Suppose we try to get away the big log before the door?'' |
29593 | The doctor asked a boy,"Where is Shanghai situated?" |
29593 | There are to be eight of''em-- isn''t that gay, Fred? |
29593 | They greeted him directly with a shout of"Well, Fred, what does your father say?" |
29593 | To obey your parents immediately, without asking''why?'' |
29593 | Underneath_ that_ was-- what do you think? |
29593 | Up they both sprang, exclaiming,"Something for us? |
29593 | Was there any end to wonders this morning? |
29593 | What can it be?" |
29593 | What could he have gone there for, I wonder? |
29593 | What_ do_ you think the boys in our school are going to do?" |
29593 | Where_ did_ they come from?" |
29593 | and do you think the President will really send for us? |
29593 | and then betaken himself to the police station in B---- street? |
29593 | cried Freddy,"I say, fellows, what do you think of the Dashahed Zouaves for a name?" |
29593 | cried Titehugge,''is there? |
29593 | dear me, what do I mean?" |
29593 | exclaimed Bella,"where can you get ice cream for a cent?" |
29593 | exclaimed the cook,"I hopes you do n''t mean to play no trick on me; will it bite?" |
29593 | he said, in a dandified way,''whawt business have you, I should like to know, in the-- aw company of a bearah of fashion? |
29593 | was n''t that noble?" |
29593 | what does that mean, mamma?" |
29593 | what have you been doing?" |
29593 | what_ shall_ I do?" |
26430 | Under what condition, in a symphonic work, is the visual image, introduced by the psychic image, produced? 26430 ''What time are vespers sung in your town?'' 26430 After this, is it necessary to remark that belief depends peculiarly on the motor elements of our organization and not on the intellectual? 26430 And why so? 26430 Are not these dispositions of the mind fertile in artifices, stratagems, inventions of all kinds? 26430 Are there characters peculiar to each one? 26430 Are there races or groups of men totally devoid of myths? 26430 Are these images complete, in the strict sense of the word? 26430 Are these two views irreconcilable? 26430 Besides, has an experiment, in the strict sense of the word, ever been made at thepsychological moment"? |
26430 | But is there a criterion other than that? |
26430 | But what is the nature of this work? |
26430 | But what is their nature? |
26430 | By what positive signs do we recognize it? |
26430 | CHAPTER II THE CREATIVE IMAGINATION IN THE CHILD At what age, in what form, under what conditions does the creative imagination make its appearance? |
26430 | CHAPTER V LAW OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE IMAGINATION Is imagination, so often called"a capricious faculty,"subject to some law? |
26430 | CONCLUSION I THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE CREATIVE IMAGINATION Why is the human mind able to create? |
26430 | Classifications are made according to the essential dominating attributes; but, as regards the varieties of the creative imagination, what are they? |
26430 | Consequently, is it not paradoxical to relate it to plastic imagination, as species to genus? |
26430 | Dare we hold that hypochondria and insanity following upon the delirium of persecution are devoid of imagination? |
26430 | Difficulties of the subject.--The degree of imagination in animals.--Does creative synthesis exist in them? |
26430 | Do not people discuss seriously the objective value of certain myths, and of metaphysical theories? |
26430 | Does experimentation, strictly so called, teach us anything on this point? |
26430 | First of all, do all representations include motor elements? |
26430 | Flechsig''s theory.--Physiological conditions: are they cause, effect, or accompaniment? |
26430 | Greatness is altogether a relative idea; and would not our great creators seem, to beings better endowed than we, very small? |
26430 | Has it not often been said that the religion of one is superstition to another, and_ vice versâ_? |
26430 | Has the creative power of the human mind also analogous antecedents, a physiological equivalent? |
26430 | Have not psychologists distinguished, according as one or another of image- groups preponderates, visual, auditory, motor and mixed types? |
26430 | Have they inspired myths? |
26430 | He was so absorbed in the matter that he did not notice a man coming toward him, and at the question,''M......, if you please--?'' |
26430 | Here is an idea_ A_; it is the center of a network; it can radiate in all directions--_B, C, D, E, F, etc._ Why does it call up now_ B_, later_ F_? |
26430 | How are we to determine these varieties? |
26430 | How draw a dividing line so as to assign to the imagination only its rightful share? |
26430 | How many creators have been wrecked because the conditions necessary for their inventions were lacking? |
26430 | How may we rightly assert that a form of imaginative life is clearly pathologic? |
26430 | If, for example, some lower type had the power of arresting pain, how could it lose it? |
26430 | In conclusion, I anticipate a possible question:"Does the unconscious factor differ in nature from the two others( intellectual and emotional)?" |
26430 | In passing, let us put the opposite question, Why is one_ not_ imaginative? |
26430 | In short, should we look for his representative character within him or without? |
26430 | In what respect does this mode of creation differ from others, at least in the practical order? |
26430 | Is a psychology of great inventors possible? |
26430 | Is association by resemblance, which Wundt calls internal, strictly speaking, an elementary law? |
26430 | Is it based on a special structure in the brain, or rather on special irritability? |
26430 | Is it only a superficial likeness, a hasty judgment, a metaphor, or does it rest on some positive basis? |
26430 | Is it psychological? |
26430 | Is it purely physiological? |
26430 | Is it useful or hurtful? |
26430 | Is not the way clear and is it not well enough to go in this direction? |
26430 | Is the stick that he bestrides perfectly identified with a horse? |
26430 | Is there a connection between the development of the generative function and that of the imagination? |
26430 | Is there a"seat"of the imagination? |
26430 | Is there not an art frankly and deliberately pessimistic? |
26430 | Is this sometimes found in the animal kingdom? |
26430 | Judging from this, how refuse them invention altogether? |
26430 | Let us now study the psychology of this creative activity, reducing it to these two questions: How are myths formed? |
26430 | May the type of imagination, the chief manifestations of which we have just enumerated, be considered as identical with the idealistic imagination? |
26430 | Need we mention the Middle Age practice of charms, which even in our day still has adherents among cultured people? |
26430 | Plato and More-- would they have wished to realize their dreams? |
26430 | Shall we say that it is"instinctive,"consequently unconscious? |
26430 | Then they have been led to ask: Which of these two elements is the primitive one? |
26430 | There are some associations based on contiguity and on resemblance which one may foresee, but how about the rest? |
26430 | They are helpers of inspiration.--Is there any analogy between physical and psychic creation? |
26430 | This method aside, since the determination must be made according to the individuality of the architect, what method shall we follow? |
26430 | This much admitted, let us return to our special question, which Flechsig asks in these words:"On what does genius rest? |
26430 | To begin with, is it necessarily inherent in the human mind? |
26430 | To keep even to esthetic creation, is it necessary to recall the saying_ facit indignatio versum_? |
26430 | Was Sully''s child, that showed its doll a series of engravings to choose from, completely deceived? |
26430 | We might just as well ask why does man have eyes and not an electric apparatus like the torpedo? |
26430 | We shall try later( in the Conclusion) to answer the question,_ Why_ is one imaginative? |
26430 | What business has this affectation this morning in a classic and dull building, in a common environment of poor workmen? |
26430 | What could he accomplish? |
26430 | What does it produce in the practical, esthetic, scientific, moral, social, religious field? |
26430 | What is superstition? |
26430 | What line does their evolution follow? |
26430 | What more have poets and artists done? |
26430 | What more then is needed? |
26430 | What then shall we do with the emotional geniuses-- the poets and artists? |
26430 | What theory was more clinging, more fascinating in its applications, than that of phlogiston? |
26430 | What, indeed, could it be? |
26430 | Whence, then, comes this persistent and in some respects seductive idea that creation is an instinctive result? |
26430 | Where does it begin, and where does it end? |
26430 | Where, indeed, find more favorable conditions for knowing it? |
26430 | Which is the chief process here? |
26430 | Who created those legends and tales of adventure constituting the subject- matter of mythology? |
26430 | Who does not know of Newton''s apple, Galileo''s lamp, Galvani''s frog? |
26430 | Who does not know the symbolism of the cathedrals, and the vagaries to which it has given rise? |
26430 | Why are people inclined to believe that our present subject, if not entirely foreign to the imagination, is only an impoverished form of it? |
26430 | Why does a man create? |
26430 | Why does he perceive changes of odors but not magnetic changes? |
26430 | Why does he perceive directly sounds but not the ultra- red and ultra- violet rays? |
26430 | Why is one called up rather than another, and at such a moment rather than at another? |
26430 | Why, then, the view above mentioned? |
26430 | Why? |
26430 | Would it be improper to consider as a variety of the genus a mode of representation that could be expressed as_ clearness in simplicity_? |
26430 | Would it be possible? |
26430 | Yet is it not the mother of phantoms, of numberless superstitions, of altogether irrational and chimerical religious practices? |
26430 | [ 39] Has not chorea itself been called a muscular insanity? |
26430 | that is, according to our present notions, on chemical factors? |
26430 | the action of a novel or drama as though it were a matter of real events? |
26430 | the character of the_ dramatis personae_ as though they were living flesh and blood? |
26430 | which is a slightly different question from that usually asked,"Are there tribes totally devoid of religious thoughts?" |
30974 | ... if you would come and play Rabbits with us? |
30974 | A practical one? |
30974 | Almost a ruin, is n''t it? |
30974 | And are you--_dead_? |
30974 | And how did you get on all this time? |
30974 | And its rhyme? |
30974 | And now, please, what comes next? |
30974 | And the first jump? |
30974 | And then----? |
30974 | And they can never escape? |
30974 | And we shall escape together? |
30974 | And well educated? |
30974 | And what else? |
30974 | And what happens in the ether, please? |
30974 | And where to? |
30974 | And who is he? |
30974 | And why, pray, should I not understand? |
30974 | And you never told me all this time? |
30974 | Anyhow, we shall escape together when the chance comes, sha n''t we? |
30974 | Are you ready? |
30974 | Atone,he asked,"what does''_ atone_''mean?" |
30974 | Bad Things? |
30974 | But do you remember_ me_? |
30974 | But how are_ you_ going to escape? |
30974 | But how did you get in? |
30974 | But if I miss----? |
30974 | But the stars,he went on,"have they got things they send out too-- forces, I mean, like the trees? |
30974 | But why ca n''t we escape at once? |
30974 | But, now tell me,she added, in a more serious voice,"have you had any pain yet?" |
30974 | Come now, little man,he said more gently,"what''s the matter, eh?" |
30974 | Come, children, do n''t you hear me? 30974 Do you_ really_ think so, father?" |
30974 | Does he know we''re going? |
30974 | Does n''t it belong to your father, then? |
30974 | Escape from what? |
30974 | Hard- headed? |
30974 | Have you_ all_ lost your tongues? |
30974 | Have_ you_ got any circulation? |
30974 | How can I be so old and so ignorant? 30974 How could it be?" |
30974 | How could you? |
30974 | How do you know? |
30974 | How in the world did you get out? |
30974 | How long have I been uncon----? |
30974 | How old am I_ really_? |
30974 | Hunting what? |
30974 | I can get thinner though, ca n''t I? |
30974 | I mean, has_ your_ heart stopped beating? |
30974 | I mean, if we escape and I get back into my body,he whispered,"will you get back into yours too?" |
30974 | I never saw you before, did I? 30974 I sha n''t touch the ground then?" |
30974 | Is he such a fright? |
30974 | Is it_ very_ difficult to use them? |
30974 | Is that the person who brought me in here this morning at such a frightful pace? |
30974 | Is the mystery so_ very_ great? |
30974 | James, why did n''t you come and play with your brothers and sisters just now? |
30974 | James,said the Colonel in a serious tone,"do n''t you know that you are getting too old now for that sort of thing? |
30974 | Jimbo, dear, where have you been? 30974 No one actually eats or drinks here----""But I''m solid,"he said,"am I not?" |
30974 | None at all-- anywhere? |
30974 | None_ there_? |
30974 | Oh, then I''m dead, am I? |
30974 | On me? |
30974 | So we can start----? |
30974 | Then are you dead, too? |
30974 | Then is the body younger than the soul? |
30974 | Then the moment you call I''m to start? |
30974 | Then what''s_ your_ name? |
30974 | Then you are beginning to love me a little, are n''t you? |
30974 | Then you ca n''t have it pulled down? |
30974 | Then you do n''t remember me at all? |
30974 | Watching? |
30974 | Well, Nixie, child, what do you want now? |
30974 | What is its history, and who used to live in it? |
30974 | What is the matter? 30974 What new nonsense is this now?" |
30974 | What will come to- night? |
30974 | What will happen, though, if I do n''t find you? |
30974 | What''s that? 30974 What''s the matter, child?" |
30974 | What''s the matter, darling child? |
30974 | When can we try? |
30974 | Where am I, mother? |
30974 | Where''s Jimbo? |
30974 | Where''s he been all night, then? |
30974 | Where-- what-- making pictures? |
30974 | Where? |
30974 | Who am I? 30974 Who are you, please, and how_ did_ you get in?" |
30974 | Who told you there were bad things in the Empty House? |
30974 | Who''s watching? |
30974 | Why are you all so mysterious about it? |
30974 | Why did n''t he come and play too? |
30974 | Why drips the rain so cold? |
30974 | Why hangs the moon so red? |
30974 | Why not for sleeping? |
30974 | Why not? |
30974 | Why not? |
30974 | Why? 30974 Wo n''t you come to me?" |
30974 | You mean Things that could hurt? |
30974 | You must wait till you hear me calling----"But sha''n''t we start together? |
30974 | You''re not a trick of His, like the voices, I mean? |
30974 | You''ve quite forgotten? |
30974 | After a moment he added,"Am I an old man? |
30974 | Am I-- going off somewhere-- where you ca n''t follow? |
30974 | And a third called with a distant laughter from behind a star--"Why sings the wind so shrill?" |
30974 | And what''s been done to you?" |
30974 | Are you one of them?" |
30974 | But the body is no older than itself-- of course, how could it be?" |
30974 | But was he being carried? |
30974 | But what in the world was this? |
30974 | But why, oh, why did they keep shouting these horrid snatches of the song through the sky? |
30974 | Can you remember anything?" |
30974 | Could it be some animal like a horse after all? |
30974 | Dare you fly out alone Through the shadows that wave, When the course is unknown And there''s no one to save? |
30974 | Do they send out something that makes us feel sad, or happy, or strong, or weak?" |
30974 | Have n''t I been born yet, or something funny like that?" |
30974 | Have n''t you seen them yet? |
30974 | He glanced at his sisters, gaining so much support from their enigmatical faces that he added, for their especial benefit,"How could she?" |
30974 | How can I remember you? |
30974 | How could the moon dwindle so suddenly to the size of a mere lamp flame? |
30974 | How could the whole expanse of the heavens shrink in an instant to the limits of a little, cramped room? |
30974 | How do you know that there''s anything inside? |
30974 | How in the world had the children got in and out? |
30974 | How in the world it got in was the principal thought in his mind, and after that: what in the world was it? |
30974 | Is this the only way I can save you-- by losing you?" |
30974 | Oh, when would the governess call to him? |
30974 | Oh, why did not the governess come for him? |
30974 | Or was it the voices of children all singing together very low? |
30974 | She took another long look round the room, and then, in a still lower whisper, bent over him, and asked:"Have you any pain?" |
30974 | Tell me, are they getting ready for you at last, and am I to lose you after all? |
30974 | Then the white face came close over the pillow, and a voice full of tenderness whispered,"My darling boy, do n''t you know me? |
30974 | Was he actually out of his body, and was his name really Jimbo? |
30974 | Was he, perhaps, over a range of high mountains, and was this the sound of the tumbling torrents? |
30974 | Was it going to sit there for ever watching him? |
30974 | Was it the wind he heard? |
30974 | Was that a voice borne on the wings of some lost wind? |
30974 | We can fly in the ether----""Where''s that?" |
30974 | We can, because----""Is that why it was good for me to get lighter and thinner?" |
30974 | Were all these things really true that she told him? |
30974 | Were not the words associated with something in his past that had been unpleasant? |
30974 | Were these things real or were they not? |
30974 | What for?" |
30974 | What in the world d''ye mean, I wonder?" |
30974 | What in the world did it all mean? |
30974 | What''s he doing?" |
30974 | What''s that funny name you call me?" |
30974 | When would he be able to dash through the open window and join her in the sky? |
30974 | Where had he come from? |
30974 | Where have you gone to? |
30974 | Where in the world had he spent the other years of his life, the forgotten years? |
30974 | Who was he? |
30974 | Why all this about the moon? |
30974 | Why is it?" |
30974 | Why should his heart beat so tumultuously all at once? |
30974 | Why was it a cruel moon, and why should it attract and persuade and entice him? |
30974 | Why was there no voice in the sky? |
30974 | Would he be able to keep up the start he had? |
30974 | Would it chase him? |
30974 | Would it run like a man or like an animal, on four legs or on two? |
30974 | Would this awful creature hunt him all night long into the daylight, or would he be forced back into the Empty House in sheer exhaustion? |
30974 | You are giving up everything to save me, are n''t you? |
30974 | You will save me, wo n''t you?" |
30974 | he added, looking up bravely into the black visage,"because the doors are both locked on the outside, and I could n''t get out?" |
30974 | he asked,"or nearly dead?" |
30974 | he cried half aloud to himself upon the bed,"why are n''t you here to- night? |
16731 | A glorious morning, is n''t it? 16731 A kind of-- PUPPY?" |
16731 | A reflection? |
16731 | A sort of_ dog_? |
16731 | A-- kind of-- puppy? |
16731 | Ai n''t you going to go after it and ketch it? 16731 And I agreed, did n''t I?" |
16731 | And poetry? |
16731 | And the mumps? |
16731 | And then, when it''s all over,continued Avrillia,"I make waffles( are n''t they good, Sara?) |
16731 | Are n''t they? |
16731 | Are you interested in relations? |
16731 | Are you sure you wo n''t faint from loss of air? |
16731 | Avrillia? 16731 But how can you get along without your step?" |
16731 | But how will they get back the lovely grass and flowers? |
16731 | But she''s nice? |
16731 | But the candles? 16731 But what is it?" |
16731 | But-- but what shall I do? |
16731 | Can you really, Schlorge? |
16731 | Did it stick? |
16731 | Did n''t you announce yesterday that you were older than the Snoodle? |
16731 | Do n''t know how I happened to forget it,he said,"but I-- well, fact is, I''m-- where''s a stump? |
16731 | Do n''t you know your own laugh when you see it? |
16731 | Do n''t you remember that you dropped poems over the Verge all day? |
16731 | Do n''t you remember, Sara? |
16731 | Do you hear that? |
16731 | Do you know where she lives? |
16731 | Do you know who Schlorge is? |
16731 | Do you mean you''re sick? |
16731 | Do you throw your poems down there? |
16731 | Do-- do you like them as well as dimples? |
16731 | Does a little girl wear her dimples in The House? |
16731 | Does she? |
16731 | Even fairies? |
16731 | Have a pleasant day? |
16731 | Have you had the measles? |
16731 | How are the children? |
16731 | How many? |
16731 | How old are they? |
16731 | How''s the painting? |
16731 | I forgot-- where''s a stump? |
16731 | Is n''t it? |
16731 | Is-- is that what is meant by step- relations? |
16731 | Is-- isn''t he lovely? |
16731 | Mad or sad? |
16731 | Mad or sad? |
16731 | May-- may I see them? |
16731 | Might-- might I go in? |
16731 | Need some repairs? |
16731 | Now, Sara,she asked,"is there any other simple little thing you''d like to have? |
16731 | Now,said Pirlaps,"how many hands for the bellows? |
16731 | Oh, is she? |
16731 | Oh, what is it? |
16731 | Oh, what is it? |
16731 | Snow? |
16731 | Some fractured dimples, maybe? |
16731 | Then it was n''t Sara this morning-- the strange child with the tears? |
16731 | Was that Sara? |
16731 | Well, Sara, should you like to see the cousins? |
16731 | Well, Sara,said the pleasant fairy- gentleman, taking her hand,"how are you? |
16731 | Well, and are you going to stand there all day staring? |
16731 | Well, do you take me for a human? 16731 Wh- what?" |
16731 | Wh- where? |
16731 | What are rules for, my dear? |
16731 | What are you going to do, Schlorge? |
16731 | What did n''t? |
16731 | What do I want with her old nettle? 16731 What in the world shall I do?" |
16731 | What in the world? |
16731 | What is it? |
16731 | What is it? |
16731 | What is it? |
16731 | What''s down there? |
16731 | What''s in your bag? |
16731 | What''s that? |
16731 | Where are the forceps? 16731 Where did you come from?" |
16731 | Where is the suet? |
16731 | Where''s a stump? |
16731 | Where''s the Snimmy? |
16731 | Where''s the rest? |
16731 | Where''s the stump? |
16731 | Where''s the stump? |
16731 | Who are they? |
16731 | Whose orders? |
16731 | Whose palace is this? |
16731 | Why in Zeelup? |
16731 | Why will they persist in doing it? 16731 Why, did n''t you bring them with you?" |
16731 | Why-- a--he began, and then, remembering, he cried excitedly,"Where''s the stump-- where''s the stump? |
16731 | Will it ever be able to fly again? |
16731 | Will that bring the grass and leaves back? |
16731 | Will you come with us, dear Madame Plynck? |
16731 | Will-- will she fly? |
16731 | Would you like a marshmallow? |
16731 | You like Avrillia? |
16731 | You said it was a good morning, did n''t you? |
16731 | You think so? |
16731 | Your plump friend, here, sitting on''em? |
16731 | --In Zeelup?" |
16731 | After trying to start several times, she finally managed to ask of one of the pleasantest Smiles,"Do you-- do you sell them?" |
16731 | And how was she to get anything to anybody without getting up? |
16731 | And then what do you think happened? |
16731 | And then, what do you think the Teacup saw? |
16731 | And your Paw?" |
16731 | And"anaesthetize"? |
16731 | Any city was a wide- eyed place to Sara; so what of the wonder of a fairy city? |
16731 | Are n''t they nice?" |
16731 | Are you strong enough to wield a pair, Sara?" |
16731 | Avrillia, have you plenty of rose- leaves?" |
16731 | Besides, how could she ever get all that furniture home on the boat? |
16731 | Besides, what time does a bird sing by? |
16731 | But Sara cried out, clapping her hands again with impunity( try doing it that way, sometime-- it''s great fun),"Oh, are there children?" |
16731 | But Sara echoed delightedly,"On rose- leaves?" |
16731 | But before the Multiplicand could answer, his henchman, the Multiplier, called out,"And what do you know of art, Oaf? |
16731 | But presently she could n''t stand not knowing any longer, so she whispered to Pirlaps,"Is-- is it a sort of birthday?" |
16731 | But what can be keeping Avrillia?" |
16731 | But what in the world shall I do about the onions?" |
16731 | Come, what shall it be?" |
16731 | Did n''t you blow as hard as any of''em?" |
16731 | Did you come to see Avrillia?" |
16731 | Do n''t I know Croton capita turn when I see it? |
16731 | Do n''t you hear the Plynck breaking them?" |
16731 | Do n''t you know that modern art is colored geometry?" |
16731 | Do you suppose I''d be without, and him subject to such fits?" |
16731 | Do you think I might?" |
16731 | Has any mortal but Sara ever seen Avrillia? |
16731 | Have you ever seen the quaint rose- jars some old- fashioned ladies have in their parlors? |
16731 | How did it happen?" |
16731 | How''s the poetry, Avrillia?" |
16731 | I did n''t do any harm, did I?" |
16731 | I have n''t any money with me,"she went on doubtfully,--"or any postage stamps,--or any ginger- snaps-- Do you-- do you like kisses?" |
16731 | Is it all gone? |
16731 | It''s never been done, has it?" |
16731 | Now, however, she remembered Sara, and asked,"Would you like to look over?" |
16731 | Ought she not to have told the Snimmy''s wife? |
16731 | Presently the Snimmy, who had been sniffing about the fallen invaders, suggested,"What''s to be done with the remains, begging everybody''s pardon?" |
16731 | Run for Schlorge-- won''t somebody please run for Schlorge?" |
16731 | Shall I call?" |
16731 | She just asked, eagerly,"Is he a-- a sort of-- dog?" |
16731 | She slipped her hand into his as she would into her own father''s, and, looking up into his face, said, enthusiastically,"Oh, is n''t she lovely?" |
16731 | She was almost ready to cry; and to keep from being quite ready, she suggested, tremulously,"Do you suppose I could go after the onions?" |
16731 | She was just about to say, humbly,"Please, might I have a little bread?" |
16731 | Sheep- bells? |
16731 | So she asked the Koopf, quite respectfully,"What ought I to do with them, when I shut the doors and come in?" |
16731 | So she ran up to him and touched his elbow and asked, almost crying,"What is it, Schlorge? |
16731 | So that was the doleful noise she had been hearing, up in the little pine- trees? |
16731 | So the Snimmy said, almost tearfully,"Why did n''t we think to bring some lunch?" |
16731 | So, as she stood and gazed, she said, more in wonder than with any idea of correcting Avrillia,"And you said there were just seventy?" |
16731 | That''s music, ai n''t it?" |
16731 | The Snimmy''s, of course, was sad-- even heartrending; and he was sniffing before he had finished saying,"How do you do, Toast?" |
16731 | The only question in my mind is, How shall we apply it? |
16731 | Then she continued, still more patiently,"Is n''t it just as easy to imagine sides as a bottom? |
16731 | Then, drawing a deep breath, he rubbed his hands and smiled at her, saying,"What''s the next thing you''d like to do?" |
16731 | Then, with a start,"But the suet, Avrillia?" |
16731 | They know nothing of poetry, music or art-- So why in Sam Hill should they think they''re so smart?" |
16731 | Was it possible that she brought anything like this on her own dear, self- willed Mother every time she indulged in a few natural tears? |
16731 | Was there ever such haste and excitement? |
16731 | We have him, have n''t we?" |
16731 | What had happened to her lovely Garden in the night? |
16731 | What new affliction was this? |
16731 | What was it her voice was like? |
16731 | What were those? |
16731 | What will they think of me?" |
16731 | What would Father think when he told her his funniest story and she did not laugh? |
16731 | What''ll your Maw say if you come home without your laugh? |
16731 | Where are the tongs? |
16731 | Where did you get the table? |
16731 | Where shall we go?" |
16731 | Where''s a stump?" |
16731 | Who was Schlorge, for example? |
16731 | Why did n''t I bring my step?" |
16731 | Why should anybody be so dismal? |
16731 | Wo n''t my dress catch?" |
16731 | Wo n''t you learn, Sara? |
16731 | Would it be too much trouble-- could you take me this way? |
16731 | Would you like to go with us? |
16731 | Would you like to see it?" |
16731 | You would n''t think, yourself, that she''d want to sit there, day after day, if there wasn''t-- would you?" |
16731 | You''ve never been there, have you?" |
16731 | and the Plynck bowed( much more gracefully) and responded,"How do you do, Toast?" |
16731 | asked Sara, softly, looking up into the tree; and"Do you think you could stand it?" |
16731 | squeaked the Quotient, fiercely,"Do n''t poets have to count their feet to write poems?" |
42961 | And this is the baby, is it? |
42961 | And you know God gave him to the world? |
42961 | Are you sure, Judge, that you did n''t bring a fan with you? |
42961 | But how shall we get down into the closets? |
42961 | But what shall we do with the Judge and the baby? |
42961 | But where did you keep your legs all the time? |
42961 | Child, what did you say it was? |
42961 | Dear me, what is that queer noise? |
42961 | Did n''t you see the registers? |
42961 | Did you say these were all the children? |
42961 | Did you see the man in the moon as we came into church? |
42961 | Did you see the man in the moon? |
42961 | Do n''t you like the name? |
42961 | Do n''t you see it''s Mrs.''Judge''that''s come back to see you? |
42961 | Do n''t you think it''s time to call the children? |
42961 | Do n''t you think we might visit the closets now? |
42961 | Do what? |
42961 | Do you see those things under the stairs? 42961 Do you think the team will stand?" |
42961 | Do you think you could bring all of us a very great deal of sweetness of disposition? 42961 Have n''t we been singing''Rise, Shine?'' |
42961 | Have you a flock of birds inside of you? |
42961 | Have you got one of those fires in the cellar? |
42961 | Here you give that to me, will you? |
42961 | How did you get out? |
42961 | How do you do? 42961 How do you do?" |
42961 | How do you feel? |
42961 | How do you get along? |
42961 | How many are there? |
42961 | How many children did that man say he had? 42961 How would you like to have the dinner served, Ruth?" |
42961 | How''d''do, ma''am? |
42961 | I think Greece smells bad, do n''t you? |
42961 | I think the Judge ought to have something solemn on, do n''t you? |
42961 | I wonder if it''s a thought? |
42961 | I wonder what they did with the old box pew that belonged to me? 42961 Is n''t it fine?" |
42961 | Is n''t she pretty? |
42961 | It looks to me like a-- what is it you call it, when you look into a mirror? 42961 It makes you nervous to walk much, does n''t it? |
42961 | My dear, do you see the clock? |
42961 | My dear, have you my fan in your pocket? |
42961 | My dear,the Judge was now speaking to his wife,"do n''t you think you could get up a little party for the children to- night? |
42961 | Not your father and mother,--the minister and the minister''s wife? |
42961 | Now, what is this for Samuel? 42961 See?" |
42961 | That would be dreadful, would n''t it? |
42961 | The what? |
42961 | Well, do n''t you think it''s nice for us to give things to each other on that day? 42961 What can it be?" |
42961 | What color do you call this? |
42961 | What did your boys die of? |
42961 | What do you want? |
42961 | What does this mean? |
42961 | What have you got to put around him? |
42961 | What is this? |
42961 | What next? |
42961 | What''s become of the old portico? |
42961 | What''s in it? |
42961 | What? 42961 Where are we?" |
42961 | Where is she? |
42961 | Where is that letter that you read us at the last meeting? |
42961 | Where is the old meeting- house? |
42961 | Where''s the feed? |
42961 | Who''ll nurse him? 42961 Why do n''t you say something?" |
42961 | Why do n''t you take the quill and the paper that you hold in the portrait, and use them? |
42961 | Why, Judge, we are n''t here, are we? 42961 Why, how do you do?" |
42961 | Why, what has become of my bedroom? |
42961 | Why, you do n''t mean it, do you? |
42961 | Would n''t you like to go over the house? |
42961 | Would the house go down if the wine- cellar caved in? |
42961 | You do n''t keep an old- clothes exchange, do you, child? |
42961 | You do n''t mean that you really wear whole birds on a hat or a bonnet, do you? |
42961 | You do n''t mean to say that they gave you hot baked potatoes with butter in meeting, and that was the way you kept warm? |
42961 | You do n''t mean to say you have another meeting- house, do you? 42961 You had a baby boy once, did n''t you? |
42961 | You know a great deal about history and things, do n''t you? |
42961 | You know that Jesus was born on the twenty- fifth of December? |
42961 | You mean night, do n''t you, Judge? |
42961 | You used to give away a great deal, did n''t you? |
42961 | [ Illustration: I] THINK it would be real nice for us to take a little ride about the town, do n''t you? |
42961 | And what did you say you called him?" |
42961 | And what will the church committee say? |
42961 | And what''s my tongue for if it is n''t to use in talking?" |
42961 | And where are all the nice little closets under the stairs? |
42961 | And who does not like to be remembered with such loving words and beautiful praises? |
42961 | Are n''t they nice and fresh?" |
42961 | But I do n''t think that would be a very nice present, do you?" |
42961 | But if this is a mark of genius, what shall we say when it comes to keeping track of all the closets and their contents? |
42961 | But what kind of stuff is it?" |
42961 | But what was to be done? |
42961 | But what would you expect from a big boy who knows so much, and has such a host of children to live with? |
42961 | But you could n''t call that a present, could you? |
42961 | Can one help feeling kindly and grateful? |
42961 | Can you sit here by this hole in the clock?" |
42961 | Could it be possible that all these things belonged to them? |
42961 | Could you bring something of that sort to him?" |
42961 | Could you send it to him? |
42961 | Could you? |
42961 | Daughters of the American Revolution? |
42961 | Did he beam with the joy of the Christ- life? |
42961 | Did n''t you hear me say so? |
42961 | Did the good man lift his hands in benediction? |
42961 | Did you ever see anything like it? |
42961 | Did you ever see such a lot of nicked, broken, mismatched, cracked, blackened, ugly old ware as they keep on my shelves? |
42961 | Did you hang up your stocking when you were a little girl?" |
42961 | Did you write it Judge?" |
42961 | Did you write it down?" |
42961 | Do n''t they keep butter in you?" |
42961 | Do n''t you like it? |
42961 | Do n''t you see that there is hardly anything left of me? |
42961 | Do n''t you think it will be nice? |
42961 | Do n''t you think that is a nice way to remember the coming of Jesus and God''s gift to all of us?" |
42961 | Do n''t you think we''re smart?" |
42961 | Do n''t you think you''d better write the things down as I tell them to you? |
42961 | Do n''t you?" |
42961 | Do you think she will star it? |
42961 | Do you think there is any sin in it?" |
42961 | Do you think you are as good and wise and great as people say? |
42961 | Do you think you could fill her up for once?" |
42961 | Do you wonder that Ruth''s eyes were dazzled? |
42961 | Do you wonder that this important man and his family gazed with surprise and alarm at the sight? |
42961 | Does n''t he look cute?" |
42961 | Does n''t it look elegant? |
42961 | Had they not been buying presents for each other these ten days? |
42961 | Have I mentioned them all but Ruth? |
42961 | Have n''t I heard Samuel and Elizabeth and the older ones talk about high ideals?" |
42961 | Have n''t you any sense?" |
42961 | Have you come back to stay?" |
42961 | How did you do it?" |
42961 | How in the world can he ever get that inside of him where it belongs?" |
42961 | How many does that make? |
42961 | How rich we shall be?" |
42961 | How should I learn how old a girl or a lady is if I did n''t ask? |
42961 | How they flutter and sing, do n''t they?" |
42961 | I wonder if she''ll have all the clothes she wants in heaven?" |
42961 | I wonder if that will be enough?" |
42961 | I wonder what that is? |
42961 | Is he the Judge''s namesake or the Judge his namesake? |
42961 | Is n''t it a wonder she did n''t die?" |
42961 | Is n''t it cunning? |
42961 | Is n''t it grand? |
42961 | Is n''t it lovely? |
42961 | Is n''t it queer that we ca n''t have a baby with curls? |
42961 | Judge, did you know that our folks now keep Christmas in their churches and their homes? |
42961 | Judge, will Miriam be a star herself now? |
42961 | Let me see; there are twenty- seven rooms and sixty closets, are n''t there?" |
42961 | Now, how shall I carry them?" |
42961 | Now, that''s what you''ve sent to father, is n''t it? |
42961 | Ruth, of course, was right; for was n''t there a big room in the top of the clock? |
42961 | That would be a queer sight, would n''t it? |
42961 | Then, here''s a broad purple ribbon for a necktie; and I''ll put this ermine boa around his neck, for do n''t judges sometimes wear ermine? |
42961 | There, does n''t she look well?" |
42961 | There, now, do n''t I look just too nice for anything?" |
42961 | They are-- what is it you call them? |
42961 | They would have been awful old if they had lived till now, would n''t they? |
42961 | Two of''em, did n''t you?" |
42961 | Was it an earthquake, or what? |
42961 | Was it possible ever to get the house and the family settled down to plain, every- day living again? |
42961 | Was it the skeleton? |
42961 | Well, now, is n''t that queer? |
42961 | Were the ten acres of lawn, garden, orchard, field, and pasture really for their use and pleasure? |
42961 | Were you trying to correct me, Judge? |
42961 | What did you say they were called? |
42961 | What makes you look so solemn? |
42961 | What''s become of the old one?" |
42961 | What''s the news?" |
42961 | When I said sense did I mean( what is it they call it), oh, singular, not plural? |
42961 | When did you come? |
42961 | Whenever the children stood before the pictures, they asked questions: Who was the Judge? |
42961 | Who ever heard of giving away closets? |
42961 | Why could n''t we have one over at the house to- night?" |
42961 | Why did n''t you think of it before? |
42961 | Why do n''t you ask the Judge and me to play church with you and the rest of the children some of the times when you come into the parlor?" |
42961 | Why, what a little thing it is? |
42961 | Will this make George soft- hearted and tender- hearted and good- hearted? |
42961 | Will you send it to the baby?" |
42961 | Will you, please, tie this bow of nile- green velvet about my neck? |
42961 | Would n''t you like to stop at the church and go inside? |
42961 | Would you put it on the top of his head? |
42961 | You did n''t send the curls, did you?" |
42961 | You have got used to it, have n''t you? |
42961 | You want him to season things with cheerfulness, do n''t you, and make himself and all the rest of us fragrant? |
42961 | You''d think we all belonged to her, would n''t you? |
42961 | and Samuel said, with a nudge of the arm,"Keep still, ca n''t you?" |
42961 | and did n''t the Judge and his wife know all about it? |
42961 | and do n''t you believe that Santa Claus comes down the chimney and brings us lots of presents?" |
42961 | and so to- night is the very night, is it? |
42961 | and was not every closet in the house made the hiding- place for some treasure? |
42961 | and we never should have lived in this house if they had lived, would we?" |
42961 | and would she see it? |
42961 | are n''t you hungry?" |
42961 | did he like children? |
42961 | exclaimed Samuel, who had drawn near the young inquisitor, and felt it was time to stop her;"are n''t you ashamed of yourself?" |
42961 | how much of a family did he have? |
42961 | how shall I get it back?" |
42961 | what became of his things? |
42961 | what did he do? |
42961 | what is this?" |
42961 | what will you and the Judge wear? |
42961 | what?" |
42961 | when did he die? |
42961 | where was he buried? |
42961 | who attended the funeral? |
42961 | wo n''t it be fun?" |
42961 | wo n''t this be nice on rainy days? |
26322 | ''And did n''t he tell you, you were wrong when he looked at the tickets before you started?'' |
26322 | ''And did the young gentlemen you were speaking of never come, after all?'' |
26322 | ''And did you see Miss Bogle?'' |
26322 | ''And have you been planning all these days to run off to see the parrot again?'' |
26322 | ''And have you got money enough?'' |
26322 | ''And is the-- the little girl the only little girl or boy in_ her_ house?'' |
26322 | ''And was that all that happened?'' |
26322 | ''And what did the Polly parrot talk about?'' |
26322 | ''And what is mamma doing?'' |
26322 | ''And what_ is_ she like?'' |
26322 | ''And when was that?'' |
26322 | ''And where will you go to?'' |
26322 | ''And you did run straight home, did n''t you?'' |
26322 | ''And you wo n''t be long?'' |
26322 | ''Boys,''she said,''not asleep yet? |
26322 | ''But I have never heard you mention it since, Peterkin?'' |
26322 | ''But have you got the exact address? |
26322 | ''But how did he come to have an envelope with"Miss Wylie"on?'' |
26322 | ''But what are we to do, then?'' |
26322 | ''But what do you think the spell is?'' |
26322 | ''But what will your grandfather say when he knows you''ve run away?'' |
26322 | ''But will he understand what we say?'' |
26322 | ''But would n''t he have said"London"?'' |
26322 | ''Can you give me Mrs. Wylie''s address?'' |
26322 | ''Can you tell me where Enderby Street is, if you please?'' |
26322 | ''Clem,''I said,''do you think there can really be anything the matter?'' |
26322 | ''Could n''t you have got something less stary to tie up your things in?'' |
26322 | ''Could we-- could we possibly be sent to prison?'' |
26322 | ''Did n''t she explain about it, at all?'' |
26322 | ''Did n''t she explain it at all? |
26322 | ''Did n''t you mind awfully?'' |
26322 | ''Did you hear?'' |
26322 | ''Did you, my boy?'' |
26322 | ''Do n''t you see,''I went on, touching the envelope,''this must be the house of some of Mrs. Wylie''s relations? |
26322 | ''Do you remember, Margaret, how many stations there are between the Junction and yours?'' |
26322 | ''Do you think she was n''t asked to your christening, or anything like that?'' |
26322 | ''Do you think she''s going to enchanter you?'' |
26322 | ''Giles and Peterkin will be delighted to go to you on Saturday, wo n''t you, boys?'' |
26322 | ''HOW''S THIS?'' |
26322 | ''HOW''S THIS?'' |
26322 | ''Has he learnt_ that_ from next door?'' |
26322 | ''Has mamma come back?'' |
26322 | ''Has n''t Clement come in?'' |
26322 | ''Has there been an accident? |
26322 | ''Have n''t you been to sleep yet?'' |
26322 | ''How about the flowers we meant to get for her?'' |
26322 | ''How can there not be something the matter?'' |
26322 | ''How could she not have been frightened?'' |
26322 | ''How do you know that she does n''t turn into a frog half the day?'' |
26322 | ''How do you mean? |
26322 | ''How far?'' |
26322 | ''How is Margaret?'' |
26322 | ''How long will there be to wait for the Hill Horton train?'' |
26322 | ''How much will it be? |
26322 | ''I did get him to talk, did I not?'' |
26322 | ''I wonder,''he went on, after a moment or two''s silence,--''I wonder how much she knows?'' |
26322 | ''I''d like to know who could go on sleeping with you wishing them awake?'' |
26322 | ''Is any one coming to fetch you?'' |
26322 | ''Is it that that you are worrying about?'' |
26322 | ''Is mamma really frightened about Peterkin, nurse?'' |
26322 | ''Is n''t he good?'' |
26322 | ''Is n''t it very queer?'' |
26322 | ''Is n''t she a kind lady?'' |
26322 | ''Is she at home?'' |
26322 | ''Is your name Giles?'' |
26322 | ''It''s only a shilling, I suppose?'' |
26322 | ''Let me see,''he went on,''which side is Mrs. Wylie''s? |
26322 | ''Mamma will take us home, of course,''I said,''but what do you think will be done about Margaret?'' |
26322 | ''Miss Blanchie, my dear, will you look after Miss Elvira, and see that she does n''t spill her tea?'' |
26322 | ''Mummy, mummy,''he said,''they''re not going to send her back to the witch, are they?'' |
26322 | ''Nineteen, did n''t you say?'' |
26322 | ''No, but she is a princess sort of little girl, is n''t she?'' |
26322 | ''No, no, come in, please,''this was to me; I suppose I seemed to hesitate,''and tell me what you want, and who you are?'' |
26322 | ''Oh, Clem, Clem,''she wailed,''could he have been stolened?'' |
26322 | ''Oh,''I exclaimed,''you do n''t think it will make her cough worse, do you?'' |
26322 | ''Oh,''answered Peterkin,''he said,"How d''ye do?" |
26322 | ''Oh,''said Margaret,''do you know Mrs. Wylie? |
26322 | ''Perhaps what? |
26322 | ''Really, does he?'' |
26322 | ''The person I''m living with-- Miss Bogle-- isn''t her name witchy?'' |
26322 | ''Then why do you think she wo n''t talk about the little girl, or invite her, or anything?'' |
26322 | ''They are queer names; do n''t you think so? |
26322 | ''Was he in the carriage?'' |
26322 | ''We''ve been awfully comfortable, thank you,''I said, getting up,''and-- will you please tell us what you think we''d better do? |
26322 | ''Well, it''s a very nice day, and you will take good care of Peterkin, wo n''t you, Giles? |
26322 | ''Well?'' |
26322 | ''Well?'' |
26322 | ''What did he say?'' |
26322 | ''What do you mean, James? |
26322 | ''What do you suppose your bad fairies, or whatever they are, have done to her?'' |
26322 | ''What do you think about it?'' |
26322 | ''What do you think there is to know?'' |
26322 | ''What do you want to talk about?'' |
26322 | ''What does she mean?'' |
26322 | ''What happened after that?'' |
26322 | ''What is it, then? |
26322 | ''What is the matter?'' |
26322 | ''What shall we do?'' |
26322 | ''What''s that you''ve got there?'' |
26322 | ''What''s the matter, Giles?'' |
26322 | ''What? |
26322 | ''Where has he been?'' |
26322 | ''Where have you been, Peterkin?'' |
26322 | ''Which is the train for Hill Horton? |
26322 | ''Who''s"they"?'' |
26322 | ''Why could n''t you have stayed in the cab?'' |
26322 | ''Why?'' |
26322 | ''Yes, that''s what we heard,''I said,''but what was the lot more?'' |
26322 | ''Yes?'' |
26322 | ''You can hear what I say, even though I do n''t speak very loudly, ca n''t you?'' |
26322 | ''You do n''t think she is going to be badly ill?'' |
26322 | ''You mean,''said she, in a shaky voice,''we should have to go all the way back, and I''d be sent to the witch again?'' |
26322 | ''You wo n''t let her go back there?'' |
26322 | ''You wo n''t, oh, you wo n''t send me back to the witch? |
26322 | ''You''re sure I''m not going to get a talking to, after all?'' |
26322 | ''Your father and mother leaving you, I mean?'' |
26322 | ''_ Who?_''we asked eagerly. |
26322 | ''a shut- up princess?'' |
26322 | = RHYME? |
26322 | After a bit Margaret said to me, in a half- frightened voice--''What shall we do when we get to London, Giles? |
26322 | All the same, my heart did beat in rather a funny way, thinking to myself what could or should we do if she did n''t come? |
26322 | And Pete actually said--''May we come again soon, please?'' |
26322 | And how would you feel then?'' |
26322 | And may we fix the day now, dear Mrs. Lesley? |
26322 | And then she said,"Wo n''t you come in for a few minutes? |
26322 | And then we both went off laughing at the idea of a frog jumping down from Mrs. Wylie''s drawing- room sofa, and saying,''How do you do, my dears?'' |
26322 | And then-- what_ do_ you think happened? |
26322 | And you will tell their mamma not to be vexed with them, wo n''t you? |
26322 | And,''she touched Margaret gently,''this small maiden? |
26322 | And-- please-- how much was the cab?'' |
26322 | And-- yes-- isn''t that a big cage on the little balcony, Giles? |
26322 | And-- you are quite certain you can find your way home? |
26322 | Are you on your way home from school?" |
26322 | Are you sure she would n''t?'' |
26322 | But had n''t we better go at once? |
26322 | But, Clem, what shall I do about school to- morrow? |
26322 | But,''and the bright look went out of her face,''you do n''t think she''d make me go back to the witch, do you? |
26322 | Ca n''t you tell me what you''re talking about? |
26322 | Did your old lady tell you that?'' |
26322 | Do n''t you think we''d better go with you in it to Mrs. Wylie, and perhaps she''d lend us money to go to the Junction by the first train? |
26322 | Do you know the parrot in Rock Terrace?'' |
26322 | Do you know what station to go to, and all that sort of thing?'' |
26322 | Do you remember the names of any between the Junction and Hill Horton, Margaret?'' |
26322 | Do you think perhaps the guard would help us to go back again to the Junction, when he sees it was a mistake? |
26322 | Do you think we are in the_ London_ train? |
26322 | Has she been there a long time? |
26322 | Has your aunt come?'' |
26322 | He waited for my grunt, but it turned into--''What on earth do you mean?'' |
26322 | Her father and mother were in India, as I have said, have I not? |
26322 | His ideas of politeness were rather original, were n''t they? |
26322 | How do you like the idea?'' |
26322 | How much is there in it?'' |
26322 | How were we to find our way to Enderby Street? |
26322 | How''s this?'' |
26322 | I ca n''t remember about Elf''s christening feast; can you, Gilley?'' |
26322 | I exclaimed,''if we stay away all night, what_ will_ mamma do?'' |
26322 | I exclaimed,''why on earth did n''t you say so before?'' |
26322 | I know what he had been on the point of saying,--''Are you a princess?'' |
26322 | I may go home to my nursey quite early, may n''t I? |
26322 | In the first place, who are you? |
26322 | Is Clem there?'' |
26322 | Is he making up fairy stories about it?'' |
26322 | Is it in yet?'' |
26322 | Is n''t there enough over?'' |
26322 | Is there any sort of mystery? |
26322 | It is awfully jolly to know that you are trusted, is n''t it? |
26322 | Mamma calls her''Brough''sometimes, but we always call her''nurse,''of course,--''If you please, Mrs. Brough, is Master Peterkin here?'' |
26322 | May n''t I go again to see her?'' |
26322 | Might n''t it very likely be that, Giles?'' |
26322 | Mummy, you will let me go to see that old lady again, wo n''t you?'' |
26322 | Oh dear, oh dear, what shall I do?'' |
26322 | Promise,--both of you-- eh?'' |
26322 | Second- class, I suppose?'' |
26322 | She did n''t say me alone, did she?'' |
26322 | She looked down at us, looked us well over for a moment or two, and then she said--''Are you talking to the parrot?'' |
26322 | She said,"Are you talking to the parrot, my dear?" |
26322 | So I contented myself with just saying--''Why should Miss Bogle want to turn you into anything?'' |
26322 | So I said to mamma--''It''s mostly that we want to go out as soon as ever we''ve had our dinner; you know you gave us leave to go?'' |
26322 | So shall we go downstairs?'' |
26322 | So where he''s got to, who can say?'' |
26322 | Supposing the fog made her very ill? |
26322 | Supposing you go out and do n''t get back as soon as you expect? |
26322 | That was what you and Clement heard, was n''t it?'' |
26322 | The first thing she did was to send in to the next- door house''--(''The parrot''s house?'' |
26322 | Then I said--''What''s this, Margaret? |
26322 | Then she said--''Have you been to see the parrot already?'' |
26322 | Then, what would Dads and Mummy say to_ him_ for having lost me?'' |
26322 | There''s really something very misterist-- what is the proper word, Gilley?'' |
26322 | WHAT_ CAN_ HAVE BECOME OF HIM? |
26322 | Was n''t I thankful? |
26322 | Was n''t it kind of her? |
26322 | We glanced at each other, and the same thought ran through us-- had Mrs. Wylie got some plan in her head about the little girl? |
26322 | We heard the front- door bell ring several times, and once I was sure I caught Beryl''s voice calling,''Auntie, is it you?'' |
26322 | What are you doing all alone in the dark? |
26322 | What are your names?'' |
26322 | What is her name-- she is not your sister?'' |
26322 | What time do you need to get home by?'' |
26322 | What was it, Pete?'' |
26322 | When can you come again?'' |
26322 | Who are these-- children?'' |
26322 | Who is"she"that''s in the drawing- room? |
26322 | Why could n''t you be kind and friendly to those nice boys who came to see you?'' |
26322 | Why did Mrs. Wylie leave off talking about Margaret, and you too, I think, all of a sudden? |
26322 | Will you be so very good as to lend us money to go back to the Junction? |
26322 | Will you come about four o''clock, or even earlier, my dears? |
26322 | Will you come again? |
26322 | Will you give me leave to go out for half- an- hour or so? |
26322 | Will you tell your dear mamma so, and say that I shall come to see her on my return, and then we must fix on another afternoon? |
26322 | Wylie''s?'' |
26322 | Wylie?'' |
26322 | Wylie?'' |
26322 | You did n''t wake him, I hope, Giles?'' |
26322 | You do n''t mind my coming, do you, Clem?'' |
26322 | You do n''t suppose I''ve been enjoying myself these two days, do you?'' |
26322 | You do n''t think she''ll send me back to the witch, do you, Giles?'' |
26322 | You told her what you had heard, did n''t you? |
26322 | and I said,"No, I''m only listening to him, thank you"; and then she looked at me again, and she said,"You do n''t live in this terrace, I think?" |
26322 | he exclaimed,''is that you, Gilley? |
26322 | it said;''Giles?'' |
26322 | she exclaimed, with a little scream,''is it_ that_ you are afraid of, Giles? |
