25803 | Ho, Mustaf,he said, in his queer coast Arabic,"where shall I look for my lord Tibbetti?" |
25803 | How did you do, Bones? |
25803 | How do you suppose you''re going to get out of the country? |
25803 | How is your head, Bones? |
25803 | How may the waters of the river be acceptable? |
25803 | How say you, Bosambo-- what man of the Kulumbini folk will hold these people in check? |
25803 | I beg your pardon? |
25803 | I presume he is in the palace? |
25803 | I suppose you know you''re exceeding your duty? |
25803 | I''d guess the date-- but what''s the use? |
25803 | I''d have gone into the Church only I had n''t enough-- enough----"Brains? |

25803 | Let me see, what is''do da''? |
25803 | Listen, black man,said Bosambo, and lapsed into his English;"hark um, you dam''black nigger-- what for you speak um so?" |
25803 | Look here, dear old Ham,wheedled Bones"ca n''t you pretend you asked me what a Vertical Interval was?" |
25803 | Lord King,said S''gono,"are there no M''gimi amongst us who have passed from the camp and have their women and their children? |
25803 | Lord,said S''gono,"is my word nothing? |
25803 | Lord,said S''kobi, a fat man and easily puzzled,"what shall be the answer to this strange riddle you set me?" |
25803 | Lord,said Wafa cheerfully,"what good comes to me if I speak?" |
25803 | Lord,said the woman, speaking slowly,"you shall go back to Sandi and say,''I have not seen the woman D''rona''--for, lord, is this not truth?" |
25803 | Lord? |
25803 | M''lama,he said gently, in the river dialect,"what shall Sandi say to this evil that you do?" |

25803 | May I come and see him? |
25803 | No, silly ass... shadings... direction of water-- am I right, sir? |
25803 | Not as violent a feud as O''ka and I have, I hope? |
25803 | Not trypnosomes? |
25803 | Now, Bones,said Patricia, appearing on the scene,"have you got the sandwiches?" |
25803 | Now, how am I going up? |
25803 | Now, what does this mean? |
25803 | O Ko- boru,hailed Sanders,"why do you come?" |
25803 | O man,said Bones, glaring at the offender through his eyeglass,"what evil ju- ju sent you to stop my fine ship?" |
25803 | Our end? |
25803 | Pardon the question-- did you feel a curious and unaccountable inclination to raise your right hand and salute me? |
25803 | Sanders about? |
25803 | Shall we be attacked? |
25803 | Shall we have dinner or take a taxi? |
25803 | Shall we men dig and sow for such as these? |
25803 | She''s torn up her clothes? |
25803 | Shut up talking to yourself,growled Hamilton,"and tell me what is meant by''Orienting a Map''?" |
25803 | Sir and captain,he said stiffly,"do you suggest I am a jolly old impostor? |
25803 | Sir,said Ali, shaking his head,"who can forget?" |
25803 | Sir,said the exasperated Bones,"how the dooce did you get here?" |
25803 | So I can go to- night, can I? |
25803 | So,he said, with dangerous calm,"all this staring and gaping of yours means that, does it? |
25803 | Surely,he asked irritably,"Bones is n''t sickening for measles again?" |
25803 | Tell me now,said Sanders in his even tone,"can such a man as you die? |
25803 | Tell me, how long will this river be full? |

25803 | What have you been saying to Bones? |
25803 | What is happening, dear old officer? |
25803 | What is happening? |
25803 | What is it? |
25803 | What is it? |
25803 | What is meant by''Orienting a Map''? |
25803 | What is that? |
25803 | What is the matter with Bones? |
25803 | What is the rest of his baggage like? |
25803 | What is the trouble? |
25803 | What is there to do to- day? |
25803 | What is too bad, dear? |
25803 | What is wrong, Baptisa? |
25803 | What made you think that? |
25803 | What on earth are they finding to talk about? |
25803 | What on earth is he doing? |
25803 | What other illusions do they suffer from? |
25803 | What shall I say, sir? |
25803 | What sort of conveyance would you like, sir? |
25803 | What the devil are you doing? |
25803 | What the dickens are you goggling at? |
25803 | What the dickens are you looking at? |
25803 | What the dickens does it matter what Bones says? |
25803 | What was Bones saying when he talked to that horrible man? 25803 What was I to do? |
25803 | What will he say when I kick him? |
25803 | What you write to Pinto may be interesting enough to print,said Dr. Sarabesta violently,"but what shall I write to London? |
25803 | What''s the idea? |
25803 | What''s wrong? |
25803 | What? |
25803 | Where does the news come from, sir? |
25803 | Where is Bones? |
25803 | Where is Tibbetti? |
25803 | Where is he? |
25803 | Which one-- Bones or Bucongo? |
25803 | Which way do you go, Muchini? |
25803 | Who else could I be referring to? |
25803 | Who says a joy- ride to the upper waters of the Isisi? |
25803 | Who''s going to carry my bag? |
25803 | Why did n''t you say so before? |
25803 | Why do I what? |
25803 | Why do you? |
25803 | Why not? |
25803 | Why the dickens should n''t I have a sister? |
25803 | Why''good- bye,''dear old Hamilton''s sister? |
25803 | Will it be a dangerous trip? |
25803 | Will there be any fighting? |
25803 | Will you allow me to produce scientific an''expert evidence? |
25803 | Would it be indiscreet to ask what your visitors wanted? |
25803 | Yet if I send them away,said the king,"how shall I protect this land against the warriors of the Akasava and the evil men of the swamp? |
25803 | You ca n''t open them, can you? |
25803 | You called me? |
25803 | You did n''t by chance discover anything about the missing cultures, Bones? |
25803 | You do n''t echo that wish? |
25803 | You got the wireless to work? |
25803 | You have heard of Soemmering''s process? |
25803 | You have n''t a sister, surely, dear old officer? |
25803 | Your King and your country,he said,"pay you seven and eightpence per diem----""Oh,"said Bones, a light dawning,"you mean_ work_?" |
25803 | _ Now_ are you ready? |
25803 | Also of the Ochori, who are four days''march across good ground?" |
25803 | And are not we M''joro folk men? |
25803 | And then, after a little pause:"Will you be hung or shot?" |
25803 | And where does the passage lead to?" |
25803 | And who are these?" |
25803 | And would it not be good service for a woman of my house to die in your hut?" |
25803 | And, if a man does not believe, how may you believe him? |
25803 | Are n''t you well?" |
25803 | But how did you get into your room?" |
25803 | But what is your trouble with Bones?" |
25803 | By the way, how did you get this letter?" |
25803 | Did I not say that I would raise spears more wonderful than the M''gimi? |
25803 | Did n''t I issue explicit an''particular instructions about grub?" |
25803 | Did n''t I tell you, you jolly old slacker, to have everything ready by daybreak? |
25803 | Do you think he is ill?" |
25803 | Does the leopard fight the lion or the lion the leopard? |
25803 | Feelin''better, sir?" |
25803 | For does not the river saying run:"The last measure of a full granary is a measure of blood"? |
25803 | For what other man would foresee with his wonderful eye that rains would come? |
25803 | Go up and ask the Bomongo, drop in on the Isisi, speak to the Akasava, an''what will they say? |
25803 | Ham, dear old feller, do you remember when I was brought down from the Machengombi River? |
25803 | How on earth is he going to feed them, Bones?" |
25803 | How''s that, umpire?" |
25803 | I''ll tell you a precious secret-- not a word to anybody-- honest?" |
25803 | May not these take the spear again? |
25803 | Not so much as a mustard plaster-- what was I to do, dear old Miss Hamilton?" |
25803 | Now who of these is right?" |
25803 | Now, what about conveyance, hey?" |
25803 | O Abiboo"--he spoke over his shoulder to the sergeant of Houssas--"tell me, how many of the magic white stones of Bonesi did you put in their drink?" |
25803 | Sanders?" |
25803 | Sanders?" |
25803 | Sanders?" |
25803 | Tell me, preacher, if this is the truth?" |
25803 | Tell me, shall my people serve my King, or shall they serve another?" |
25803 | That''s a rippin''little bit of persiflage, Miss Hamilton?" |
25803 | Therefore, who shall attack us since we have kinsmen of all amongst us?" |
25803 | They led the man away, and the girl, who had been a spectator, asked anxiously:"What is wrong, Bones?" |
25803 | Trying to mesmerize me?" |
25803 | Was he saying nice things?" |
25803 | What am I?" |
25803 | What are''Hachures''?" |
25803 | What man gave me this?" |
25803 | What the dickens do you want leave for?" |
25803 | What though Bones''s"hostile craft"was a dilapidated canoe, manned by one aged and bewildered man of the Isisi engaged in spearing fish? |
25803 | What though Cape M''Gooboori was the village of that name and the"calm sea"was no more than the placid bosom of the Great River? |
25803 | What was the general idea of the house, anyway?" |
25803 | What was the illness, Bones?" |
25803 | What would you do?" |
25803 | What would you do?" |
25803 | What would you go back for?" |
25803 | Where is Bones? |
25803 | Where is Bones?" |
25803 | Who denies this?" |
25803 | Who found''em?" |
25803 | Who rules this land?" |
25803 | Whose men are you?" |
25803 | Why the dickens are you making a mystery of the thing?" |
25803 | Why?" |
25803 | Would you like to hear our gramophone?" |
25803 | Yet, S''kobi, do not the Akasava and the Isisi, the N''gombi and the Lower River folk take their spears against me? |
25803 | You do n''t suggest,"said Hamilton, with ominous dignity,"that I would defraud the public by lying as to the qualities of a deficient character?" |
25803 | You know what I am, dear old officer, in moments of crisis?" |
25803 | he gasped,"do you want to set Portugal ablaze?" |
25803 | said Sanders impatiently,"what happened after all this dashing?" |
37588 | A captain, dear boy? |
37588 | Admiral, ye''re considerabul longer nor me in the legs and neck; could n''t ye wade out and make a dive for her? |
37588 | All alive? 37588 An''the big ziant was doin''to kill zem all? |
37588 | And Babs has been so good, has n''t she? |
37588 | And did he sit down? |
37588 | And did you go in those-- clothes? |
37588 | And now, gentlemen,added Halcott,"can you guess to what seas my barque shall sail next?" |
37588 | And oh, please, interesting boy,begged Eedie,"may I talk to Babs?" |
37588 | And that is--? |
37588 | And the sailor was dead? |
37588 | And their strength? |
37588 | And then he was saved? |
37588 | And what does father do? |
37588 | And what is your name, curious boy? |
37588 | And where can man die better, Than in facing fearful odds? |
37588 | And where do you live, my lad? |
37588 | And who is Babs, you droll boy? |
37588 | And why? |
37588 | And ye''ve never been here once since you put up the bit of marble slab to mark the spot where_ she_ lies? |
37588 | And you wo n''t give me Bob? |
37588 | And you''re not drowned? |
37588 | And you''re pretty nearly naked, are n''t you? |
37588 | And ze axe was all tovered wi''blood and ziant''s hair? 37588 And_ me_?" |
37588 | Are you afraid, dear? |
37588 | Are you like me, I wonder? 37588 Are you like me, I wonder?" |
37588 | Better than ever, daddy? |
37588 | But they do attack you at times, these natives? |
37588 | But whither? 37588 But will you care to land on the island we are in search of, with these fellows?" |
37588 | But you wo n''t go to the wars again, Captain Weathereye? |
37588 | But your family name? |
37588 | Can the place be haunted? |
37588 | Can you not guess? 37588 Daddy wo n''t be down for a long, long time?" |
37588 | Deep, deep down among the rocks,she would say to Ransey,"who lives there? |
37588 | Deep, deep,_ deep_ down,''Ansey? |
37588 | Did n''t I tell you I''d make a man of him, Miss Scragley? 37588 Did n''t you? |
37588 | Did she cry much? |
37588 | Did you ever hear psychologists mention the term or feeling` ecstasy''? 37588 Did you make that pretty ship?" |
37588 | Eh? 37588 Eh? |
37588 | Enchanted? 37588 Father,"he says presently, as they are near to a clump of tall trees,"is n''t it just_ here_ where mother was laid?" |
37588 | Flown quickly, father? 37588 Going on?" |
37588 | Had your island of gold a chimney to it? |
37588 | Halcott,said the latter, approaching the captain of the_ Sea Flower_--"Halcott, have you kept your secret?" |
37588 | Have you noticed the glass lately, Tandy? |
37588 | How do_ you_ know, madam? 37588 I mean, where was your gentle mother buried?" |
37588 | I wonder will he_ ever_? |
37588 | Is it in your power to tell us, James, where these vessels of gold were made, or where the gold was obtained? |
37588 | Is n''t it possible to build one? |
37588 | Is there no toast this morning? |
37588 | Is there, for honest poverty, That hangs his head, and a''that? 37588 It was just here, was it not,"said Halcott,"where the entrance was? |
37588 | Kaik-- kaik-- kay-- ay? |
37588 | May I ask you a question or two, you most interesting boy? |
37588 | May I look on while you cook? |
37588 | Miss Nelda? |
37588 | Never, never,''Ansey? |
37588 | Nor the Admiral? |
37588 | Now, would you like to go to school? |
37588 | O Jane, are you here? |
37588 | O daddy,she cried, kissing his weather- beaten face,"are we safe?" |
37588 | O father,said Babs one autumn evening,"are n''t_ you_ frightened at the roaring of the sea?" |
37588 | Of course we would stay all night? 37588 Oh, will the morning never come? |
37588 | Oh, will ye, though? |
37588 | Oh, ye wo n''t, wo n''t ye? 37588 Oh, you dear, droll''Rallie,"cried the child, smiling through her tears,"and so you''re not drowned?" |
37588 | Oh, you''ve been to church, then? |
37588 | Oh,she said,"you''s tome back, has''oo?" |
37588 | Poor Hallie,cried Babs, sympathisingly,"does your headie ache?" |
37588 | Secret? |
37588 | Seen them before? |
37588 | Shall we go below and talk a little? |
37588 | Six''oung ladies, all stlung up by ze hair o''zer heads? 37588 Sleep? |
37588 | So ye ca n''t see no signs o''father, or the barge, eh? 37588 So you''re very happy all of you, and always were?" |
37588 | Stones and ashes? 37588 That wady[ lady] wo n''t take Babs away,''Ansey?" |
37588 | The exact longitude and latitude? |
37588 | The other shares are in the market then? |
37588 | The ship did go to the bottom though, did n''t it,''cause I heard the water all rush down? |
37588 | Then, cusses on you, why do n''t ye speak? 37588 There was n''t a coal mine or a factory of any kind on it, was there? |
37588 | They are coming again? |
37588 | They think they''re going to leave me behind, do they? 37588 Three years? |
37588 | To- morrow? 37588 Very prettily put, Mr Davies,"said Miss Scragley;"do n''t_ you_ think so, Dr Fairincks?" |
37588 | Was there only one? |
37588 | Well, how''s all the family? |
37588 | Well, mum, I could n''t go with nuthin''on-- could I, now? 37588 Well, shall I come up and bring a bigger glass?" |
37588 | What could these have been, think you, James? |
37588 | What do you make of her, sir? |
37588 | What is it, old heart? 37588 What is to be done?" |
37588 | What is your theory, Halcott? |
37588 | What may a` call- crow''be, Halcott? |
37588 | What mean you, Durdley? |
37588 | What on earth can it be? |
37588 | What think you, men,he said, looking round him,"came up with the fire and the smoke from the throat of that volcanic hill?" |
37588 | What was it? 37588 Where is he? |
37588 | Which dog, do you think, began the fight? |
37588 | Who knows,said James, with far more cheerfulness in his voice than usual--"who knows but that our deliverance is already at hand? |
37588 | Who told you so? |
37588 | Who will be the next to die? 37588 Why do n''t you throw me overboard?" |
37588 | Why not, Captain Weathereye? |
37588 | Why, Tandy, my dear fellow, this is n''t a ship any more; it''s a yacht? |
37588 | Why, Tandy, what see you? |
37588 | Why, dear? |
37588 | Ye mebbe do n''t see nuthin''o''father, do ye? |
37588 | You are quite, quite sure father is n''t drownded? 37588 You do n''t mean in the canal, surely?" |
37588 | You think, then, they will return? |
37588 | You_ hear_? |
37588 | ` And what saw you, James?'' 37588 ` And you know this cave, Fitz?'' |
37588 | ` Anything wrong, James?'' 37588 ` But why not steer northwards?'' |
37588 | ` Did you hear it?'' 37588 ` Going to by- by am I? |
37588 | ` I''m not a merman, or anything, am I, mother? 37588 ` Is that what you call them, captain?'' |
37588 | ` James,''I said,` have n''t you made some mistake?'' 37588 ` Never been here before?'' |
37588 | ` Off, James?'' 37588 ` What are you doing, or trying to do, Charles Halcott?'' |
37588 | ` What on earth,''I said once to him,` do you use the specs for, my friend?'' 37588 ` Will you speak first?'' |
37588 | ''Oo''s_ twite_ sure o''zat?" |
37588 | ''Oo''s_ twite_ sure zer was six?" |
37588 | A sailor? |
37588 | Ai n''t got ne''er a bit o''baccy about ye, has ye, miss?'' |
37588 | An''may I enquiah if you are the-- the-- the waggamuffin who saw Miss Scwagley in the wood yestah- day?" |
37588 | And are we all drowned?" |
37588 | And where does your mother sleep, Ransey?" |
37588 | And will Babs go with you?" |
37588 | And you are sure no awful beasts have come up with long arms? |
37588 | And-- and then? |
37588 | Are they sharks? |
37588 | Are ye on board, Admiral?" |
37588 | Are you all willing?'' |
37588 | Are you not wise enough to know that, even if you procure this photograph, you will have to keep it a secret from honest James Malone? |
37588 | Away to the woods? |
37588 | Before now, Charles Halcott, I''ve seen a ship sunk in the twinkling of a marling- spike by a--''"` By striking against a berg, James?'' |
37588 | But could any boy, or girl either, be really poor who had so many friends in field and forest, and by the winding stream? |
37588 | But what will you dwink-- sherry, port, champagne-- wum? |
37588 | But where, think you, do I mean to sail to next? |
37588 | But would the gold be of any use to them? |
37588 | But, before going further, tell me what is your Christian name?" |
37588 | Can a millionaire enjoy sport or play any better than you or I, reader? |
37588 | Can it climb up and swallow us?" |
37588 | Can you read?" |
37588 | Consult the captain, did you say?" |
37588 | Could we expect or dare, as a last resource, to reach the far- off land in two open boats? |
37588 | Did_ you_ see the beautiful vision-- the lovely child?'' |
37588 | Do n''t those shoes pinch a bit?" |
37588 | Eh? |
37588 | Ever hear these lines, Miss Scragley? |
37588 | Fire? |
37588 | Food? |
37588 | For a''that, and a''that, Our toils obscure, and a''that; The rank is but the guinea stamp, The man''s the gowd for a''that?" |
37588 | Has I been afeep[ asleep],''Ansey?" |
37588 | Has he a better appetite from the fact that he can afford to coax it with every costly dainty that cash can purchase? |
37588 | Has some beautiful bird brought you a letter from home?" |
37588 | Have you a mother?" |
37588 | Have you ever experienced the effects of a volcanic eruption in any of these islands?" |
37588 | Having smashed the postman with a mushy turnip? |
37588 | His last word was` Victory;''and well may we now add,` O death, where is thy sting? |
37588 | How best could the Crusoes repel boarders if the palisade were carried, and a rush made down the embankment with the view of attacking the ship? |
37588 | How is it that sailors so often resemble one another? |
37588 | How to make sure? |
37588 | Human blood looks ghastly on white coral sands, but was Tandy to blame? |
37588 | I am never sorry for the downfall of speculators; for, after all, what is speculation but a species of gambling-- gambling for high stakes? |
37588 | I do n''t end in ling, do I, mother?'' |
37588 | I mean, do many save yourself know of the existence of gold on that island of blood?" |
37588 | I''m goin''to run wild for a bit, are you?" |
37588 | Is he more happy? |
37588 | Is he more healthy? |
37588 | Is n''t it just too awfully jolly for anything?" |
37588 | Is not the image of the lady who has bewitched you indelibly photographed upon your soul? |
37588 | Is that right?" |
37588 | Is this all? |
37588 | James, will you bear us company?'' |
37588 | Land, eh?" |
37588 | Live, brother, live?" |
37588 | May I ask if this is the doag that neahly killed the postman fellah?" |
37588 | Mrs Mac, where are you? |
37588 | Music been too much for you? |
37588 | Need I tell you what they were thinking about? |
37588 | Not so very old, am I? |
37588 | Now will you be better than usual?" |
37588 | O grave, where is thy victory?'' |
37588 | Physic? |
37588 | Please, may I come again? |
37588 | Ransey here can make his way in the world.--Can''t you, Ransey?" |
37588 | Rum? |
37588 | Shall the plague be stayed? |
37588 | Shall we, reader? |
37588 | Should they get the largest boat ready, provision her, and put to sea? |
37588 | So you missed your old father, little lass, did you? |
37588 | So, what would you like to be? |
37588 | Such remarks as the following fell upon our ears at every corner:--"` Well, you''ve got back again, James?'' |
37588 | Surely the stranger sailors would dance? |
37588 | Tell me, tell me,"wept the wee lass,"is the ship at the bottom? |
37588 | The big haul of fish he had caught? |
37588 | The conversation seemed to be somewhat as follows:--"You and I are about the same size, are n''t we?" |
37588 | There''s no good in schools, Miss Scragley, that I know of, except that the flogging hardens them.--Well, lad, you wo n''t go to school? |
37588 | Too young, Miss Scragley? |
37588 | Was he not a guard? |
37588 | Was it marooning, I wonder? |
37588 | Was it the heat of internal fires, or was it terror-- I know not which-- that made the perspiration stand in great beads on their now pale faces? |
37588 | Was there any way of accounting for this? |
37588 | Was there nothing to break the dread stillness? |
37588 | Were the savages all killed, and shot, and drowned? |
37588 | Whales? |
37588 | What about making overtures of peace to them, brother James?" |
37588 | What could it mean? |
37588 | What could such things as these have to do with the red man of the wild West, the solitary scalp- hunter of the boundless prairie? |
37588 | What did he see when he woke up again?" |
37588 | What did that signify to those determined gold- seekers? |
37588 | What is a promise, even on oath, from such bloodthirsty villains as these? |
37588 | What is the matter? |
37588 | What mattered it? |
37588 | What may be the naychure of your business?" |
37588 | What should you propose, Weathereye?" |
37588 | Whatever is that,''Ansey?" |
37588 | Where do you sail from?" |
37588 | Who can tell? |
37588 | Who indeed?'' |
37588 | Why did it run away anyhow?" |
37588 | Why do n''t you raise your standard? |
37588 | Will you come and live with me?" |
37588 | Would it not be as well, I advanced, to attempt to rescue the ladies by force? |
37588 | Would n''t us, Bob?" |
37588 | Would the strangers dance? |
37588 | Would they come back again? |
37588 | Would you dare to stab your captain? |
37588 | Would you disobey your mother?'' |
37588 | You love the_ Sea Flower_?" |
37588 | ` Now, sir, shall we call all hands, and see to rifles and ammunition?'' |
37588 | ` Why have you left us? |
37588 | ` Will I_ ever_ have a home on the green earth, I wonder, or shall I die on the blue sea?'' |
37588 | and can they talk to you?" |
37588 | and leave Babs? |
37588 | and will the sun never shine again? |
37588 | at sea? |
37588 | away?" |
37588 | broke his head?" |
37588 | exclaimed Eedie;"may n''t I kiss it, auntie?" |
37588 | he began haughtily,"am I right in my conjecture that this is''Angman''s''All?" |
37588 | he cried,` ye do n''t seem an over- lively lot here, I must say, but has e''er a one o''ye got sich a thing as a bit o''baccy?'' |
37588 | he said quickly;"where is she, and how is she, Jane?" |
37588 | he said to himself, which being interpreted seemed to signify,"What do_ they_ want here, anyhow? |
37588 | mother?'' |
37588 | she said, solemnly now;"does''oo fink[ think]''Ansey''as fallen in and dlowned hisself?" |
37588 | she used to remark to herself, when she had finished saying her prayers and was preparing to undress--"ever--_ever_?" |
37588 | the war, Captain Weathereye?" |
37588 | what_ am_ I to do with you?'' |
37588 | why have you left the seas? |
37588 | you here, Lord Fitzmantle?" |
39061 | ''Pon my soul, I''d forgotten my own birthday, and I have n''t the ghost of a notion what the day of the month is; have you, Barney? |
39061 | A boy, did you say, Barney? 39061 A fluke, was it? |
39061 | A machine gun? |
39061 | A steamer, eh? |
39061 | A wicked uncle, eh? |
39061 | All well? |
39061 | And I suppose you''ve alarmed the camp? |
39061 | And Lokolobolo? |
39061 | And Makoko? |
39061 | And are there pigmies in that forest-- little men, you know? |
39061 | And are your parents still chained to the tree? |
39061 | And did the cratur''give ye the slip, then? |
39061 | And go at them with a rush, uncle? |
39061 | And is she buried under them? |
39061 | And is that the way, sorr, they make the giants at the pantomime? |
39061 | And they have been killed-- not dying by the sleeping sickness? |
39061 | And what do you make of this? |
39061 | And what sort of feeling is now consuming ye, sorr? |
39061 | And what then, sorr? |
39061 | And what''ll ye be afther doing yourself, sorr? |
39061 | And where''s the pipe, sorr? 39061 And wo n''t it be aisy, sorr? |
39061 | And you did not get a pain? |
39061 | And you have not been attacked since? |
39061 | Another alarm, eh? |
39061 | Anything happened? |
39061 | Are we on the right road? |
39061 | Are you going? |
39061 | Are you sure none of the other men know enough English to serve my turn? |
39061 | Arrah thin, ye spalpeen, where''s Samba? |
39061 | Bandoka is sure the white officers are not coming through the forest? |
39061 | Bedad, sorr, is n''t it me that knows ye''d niver do it? 39061 Bedad, why should n''t we have a little rifle practice at''em, sorr? |
39061 | Begorra, I would, sorr; do they deserve any betther? 39061 But Samba, uncle?" |
39061 | But how came he here? |
39061 | But how could you tell that in the dark? |
39061 | But we have seen nothing of Samba; where is he? |
39061 | But what if I never come back, Barney? |
39061 | But what of their courts, Uncle? 39061 But what''ll we do wid the overflow, sorr? |
39061 | But where''s the gold, uncle? |
39061 | But who did it? 39061 Can not we get the people out uv the scoundhrel''s clutches widout fighting, sorr? |
39061 | Can they reach Ilola to- day, coming through the forest? |
39061 | Could n''t we do something to hould the attention uv those villains at the outpost while Samba and the chief are doing their job? |
39061 | Could n''t we leave all the licking to him, uncle? |
39061 | D''you see what has happened? 39061 D''you think we could do it, Barney? |
39061 | Dead, monsieur? |
39061 | Did I? |
39061 | Do n''t you ever have a fit of the dumps, Barney? 39061 Do you know anything of Samba, the son of Mboyo and nephew of Boloko, one of your master''s men?" |
39061 | Do you think it was a move of that Belgian fellow, uncle? |
39061 | Eh? 39061 Faith,''tis Irishmen that speak the best English,"returned Barney;"did I not hear them wid me very own ears in the house uv Parlimint?" |
39061 | Go on the stump like Gladstone? |
39061 | Has he killed many people? |
39061 | Have you called him? |
39061 | He dies, O Lokolobolo? |
39061 | He will not go yet to the Great Spirit, O Lokolobolo? |
39061 | Hi, now, Nando, what are you about? |
39061 | How are you now, Samba? |
39061 | How can that be? 39061 How did they come?" |
39061 | How did you find your way back in the dark? |
39061 | How far now? |
39061 | How many are the villains? |
39061 | How many fighting men are left to escort the canoes? |
39061 | How old is he, Nando? |
39061 | How will you do it? |
39061 | How''s that? |
39061 | I suppose you are going to take us there? 39061 I suppose you are very tired now, Samba?" |
39061 | I suppose you told him our men are not armed? |
39061 | I suppose you''ll just say''Go and be hanged''in answer to that? |
39061 | If he is so very sick, how did he come from the river into the forest? |
39061 | Is it far, Lofundo? |
39061 | Is it quite clear? |
39061 | Is it the fifteenth Psalm? 39061 Is that Ilombekabasi?" |
39061 | Is that the fashion uv keeping gyard? |
39061 | Is the boy getting better? |
39061 | It is the hand of Boloko, who whipped us and killed us, who can say how many? 39061 Just in revenge for not getting the baumba?" |
39061 | Lepoko speaks English, does he? |
39061 | Me fink dis plenty bad; what for man lib for hide in tree and look at Nando? 39061 Might it not be to prevent reinforcements from reaching us, sorr?" |
39061 | Mr. Elbel? 39061 Now I wonder if he could tell us all about it?" |
39061 | Now what are we to do with him? |
39061 | Now, Lepoko,he said, putting himself between the chiefs and sitting on the buffalo''s head,"what is all this about?" |
39061 | O kend''o? |
39061 | Only what could he do, if he came? |
39061 | Perhaps he was fishing? |
39061 | Samba? 39061 Say, was n''t it Macaulay who said he''d write a nation''s history from its ballads? |
39061 | Send him to Oxford? |
39061 | Shall we admit Makole? |
39061 | Shall we go back and send a party to cut him up? |
39061 | Shall we let him go, Barney? |
39061 | Spoiling for a fight, eh? 39061 Suppose the talk of gold turns out to be wind, uncle?" |
39061 | That is the truth, Ifumi? |
39061 | That''s the scout of Massa Barney''s who was captured, is n''t it? |
39061 | The dog has gone too, eh? 39061 The fire is burning out; what does it matter if it burns a little more quickly? |
39061 | The whipping is to be to- morrow? 39061 Then why not take the offensive, uncle?" |
39061 | They taught you history at Rugby, did they? 39061 Three men will certainly be killed; are not the scouts Makoko, Lianza, and Lingombela, three of the best marksmen in Ilombekabasi? |
39061 | Tow him, eh? 39061 True; how did you get away, Samba?" |
39061 | Very good, sorr,said Barney;"but what''ll become uv Ilola? |
39061 | Well, and what is it wid ye thin? |
39061 | Well, do n''t you think that, now our numbers are reduced, it would be as well to move our camp nearer to Imbono''s village? 39061 Well, what are the lines?" |
39061 | Well, what are you driving at, Barney? |
39061 | Well, what is it? |
39061 | Well, what''s become of them, then? 39061 Well, who are you, and what do you want?" |
39061 | Well? |
39061 | Were many of your people killed? |
39061 | What are they singing, Lepoko? |
39061 | What can you do, my boy? |
39061 | What d''you mean? |
39061 | What did I say at all at all? |
39061 | What did he mean by that? |
39061 | What do they say now, Lepoko? |
39061 | What do you make of this? |
39061 | What do you mean-- a bit of her? |
39061 | What do you mean? 39061 What do you say at all?" |
39061 | What do you say, uncle? 39061 What do you think of this, Barney? |
39061 | What does that matter? 39061 What have you been doing?" |
39061 | What have you got in those bundles? |
39061 | What is it, uncle? |
39061 | What is this, Makole? |
39061 | What might that be, sorr? |
39061 | What on earth for? |
39061 | What was the firing? |
39061 | What would be the good uv doing anything else, sorr? 39061 What would be the good uv it, sorr? |
39061 | What would he be doing that for, sorr? 39061 What would ye have any truck wid Elbel''s scoundhrels for?" |
39061 | What''s that? |
39061 | What''s the matter with you, man? |
39061 | What''s the matter, Nando? |
39061 | What''s the meaning of it, I wonder? |
39061 | What''s this? 39061 What''s to be done, my boy?" |
39061 | What? |
39061 | Where are they? |
39061 | Where are they? |
39061 | Where are you going? |
39061 | Where is Samba then? |
39061 | Where is he? |
39061 | Where''s that villain Nando? |
39061 | Which one? |
39061 | Who are you? |
39061 | Who is he? |
39061 | Who is he? |
39061 | Who on earth''s Pat? |
39061 | Who was the chief of these bad men? |
39061 | Why did he send you? 39061 Why do you say that?" |
39061 | Why do you wish to leave Limpoko? |
39061 | Why does he smile? |
39061 | Why not say Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, uncle? |
39061 | Why not, sir? 39061 Why, sorr, why not drop down some uv them boulders we keep for repairing the wall? |
39061 | Why? 39061 Why?" |
39061 | Will you tell? |
39061 | Would it be indiscreet to ask your reasons? |
39061 | Would you be meaning to go for them, sorr? |
39061 | You are the servants of Mutela? |
39061 | You did not provoke Bomolo? |
39061 | You have another white man with you now, besides Elobela? |
39061 | You leave to- morrow? |
39061 | You mean that I''m deserting my ally, eh? |
39061 | You mean that the enemy might try to divert the stream if they attacked our camp? |
39061 | You mean? |
39061 | You refuse me, Ngondisi? |
39061 | You see what they are at, Barney? |
39061 | You think so, monsieur? |
39061 | You told me that none of the men speak English but yourself,said Mr. Martindale;"is that true?" |
39061 | You zink so? 39061 _ Reductio ad absurdum_, uncle?" |
39061 | ''An''what would ye be afther, Mike?'' |
39061 | ''An''who is it this time but that same Patsy?'' |
39061 | ''Bedad,''says he,''what will have come to Biddy at all?'' |
39061 | ''Catch him?'' |
39061 | ''Catch what?'' |
39061 | ''He that walketh uprightly----''I can not remember, Jack.--Is that boy Samba better? |
39061 | ''Is n''t it meself that''s just got a penny for that same news?'' |
39061 | ''Ku? |
39061 | ''What is it ye''d be maning?'' |
39061 | --don''t ye hear him, sorr?--''what in the world will I want wid all these disgraceful lookin''objects? |
39061 | --here Barney helped out his meaning with pantomime--"nor dream all that terrible wild stuff you have just been telling us?" |
39061 | ... are your practices legal, Mr. Elbel? |
39061 | A directorate-- a few directorates-- a snug place at Court-- who knows? |
39061 | And Barnio!--was it not Barnio who had led them to the stockade with that wild war- cry of his? |
39061 | And bedad, if he''d had good things to say uv the State officers, would n''t he have said''em? |
39061 | And besides, did he not writhe and groan with every blow? |
39061 | And did he not try to murder ye before the fight began? |
39061 | And how will ye go to work wid the bogie, sorr?" |
39061 | And is n''t it all his deeds that prove it, with his whips and his forest guards-- blagyards I call''em-- and all? |
39061 | And the white man, the Son of Heaven, wanted_ botofé_; it had some value for him? |
39061 | And the white men of Bula Matadi-- did not they sometimes seize black boys, and make them soldiers or serfs? |
39061 | And what could he say to convince Imbono that he was no friend of the white men who authorized or permitted such things? |
39061 | And what would his uncle say to it? |
39061 | And what''s this blood brother business anyway? |
39061 | And who are you?" |
39061 | And who is this? |
39061 | Any other men in the hut?" |
39061 | Are not these things happening every day? |
39061 | Are you absolutely inhuman? |
39061 | Arlington?" |
39061 | As for right, what right has the Inglesa to interfere? |
39061 | As soon as they came in sight the leader of Jack''s escort cried--"O etswa? |
39061 | Barney, Barney, will you never come? |
39061 | Bimeby man come down like snake, creep, creep,''long,''long; me go too, what for? |
39061 | But Samba''s the ould wan himself at schaming; will I fetch him?" |
39061 | But are we near Banonga, Nando?" |
39061 | But are ye sure Imbono would be willing to have us for close neighbours?" |
39061 | But the young fellow was certainly very polite; why not humour him by letting him talk? |
39061 | But they knew Lokolobolo; had he not time and again brought Elobela''s schemes to nought? |
39061 | But what can we do, O Lokolobolo? |
39061 | But what do you think of the idea?" |
39061 | But what does it all mean, anyway?" |
39061 | But what on earth did the fellow want with the boy?" |
39061 | But what thin? |
39061 | But what was this animal they had brought with them? |
39061 | But what was this? |
39061 | But what will you be after doing at all, sorr?" |
39061 | But where are the huts?" |
39061 | But where are the people?" |
39061 | But who are the two white men wid him, thin? |
39061 | But who is in the litter?" |
39061 | But why did ye not bring it, me darlint?" |
39061 | But you talk of fighting Elbel; have you thought of the risk?" |
39061 | But''tis the morning for Lingombela to go to the village for eggs; could he not find out what you wish to know?" |
39061 | Can you lend me an interpreter?" |
39061 | Can you stomach native food? |
39061 | Could he get down the gully side, I wonder?" |
39061 | Could he have done otherwise than he had done? |
39061 | Could he trust Barney to continue his work if he should be removed? |
39061 | Could he venture to build a fire? |
39061 | Could his sudden departure from the village, Jack wondered, have been his first move in this direction? |
39061 | Could n''t we persuade Boloko to keep his men in order-- bribe him, perhaps?" |
39061 | Could n''t we wait an hour or two and see if he appears?" |
39061 | Could they pick it up again-- trace him to the tree and follow him up? |
39061 | Could this be Bula Matadi, Samba wondered, the white man whom his grandfather, the chief Mirambo, had seen long ago at Wanganga? |
39061 | Could we rush the camp before the main body could be brought to its relief?" |
39061 | D''you know you''ve thrown away a nugget worth I do n''t know how many dollars?" |
39061 | Dat is de English vay-- de boxe, hein?" |
39061 | Did not Samba say that Lokolobolo gave him his last bottle of devil water?" |
39061 | Did the forest contain_ botofé_? |
39061 | Did they not say the Great White Chief loved us and wished to do us good? |
39061 | Did ye, or did ye not, eat a big supper uv anything at all last night?" |
39061 | Did you ever see such a big man? |
39061 | Did you explain that we do n''t belong to the Great White Chief, Nando?" |
39061 | Do n''t the streets uv London prove it whin the County Council has been taking up the drains?" |
39061 | Do n''t you think, Barney, a lighted candle behind the paper would make a very decent sort of bogie?" |
39061 | Do the spalpeens think they''ll catch us napping, begore?" |
39061 | Do ye think Barney O''Dowd would have hung out a white rag and surrindered? |
39061 | Do you blame me now, sir?" |
39061 | Do you know what I would do in your place, sir? |
39061 | Do you remember I said at Banonga that I was n''t a philanthropist and was n''t set on starting a crusade? |
39061 | Do you think anything has happened to him? |
39061 | Does n''t it seem to you odd that Uncle says nothing about the rubber question? |
39061 | Eh? |
39061 | Elbel?" |
39061 | Elbel?" |
39061 | Even Samba, forest- bred, had barely survived the perils of a solitary journey: how could a white man expect to fare so well? |
39061 | Even if he escaped the former, what chance was there of success? |
39061 | For how many maimings and murders had this man been responsible? |
39061 | For why are the niggers here not lazy, sorr? |
39061 | Getting a little appetite, eh? |
39061 | Had Elbel at last fathomed the secret of his water supply? |
39061 | Had Providence, moving in mysterious ways, arranged all this-- that one should suffer for the sake of many? |
39061 | Had Samba escaped the clutches of his enemy and got back to the fort? |
39061 | Had Samba escaped? |
39061 | Had he fallen into the enemy''s hands? |
39061 | Had he to contend with a regular officer of the State as well as an official of the Concession? |
39061 | Had his movement been detected? |
39061 | Had his ruse succeeded? |
39061 | Had news of the storming of the camp been carried, he wondered, by fugitives to the flotilla? |
39061 | Had not he, Mirambo, seen Bula Matadi, the friend of the black man? |
39061 | Had not many of them tried in vain to discover the secret which Samba would be forced to betray? |
39061 | Had not the Arabs of the Soudan shown this? |
39061 | Had the enemy taken advantage of the sudden flood to organize an attack in force? |
39061 | Had the white men no fathers? |
39061 | Has Mutela arrived?" |
39061 | Has he not made big puddle in massa''s canoe? |
39061 | Have you any food about you, Nando?" |
39061 | He had never heard Pat whine; the dog barked at everything; why had he changed his manner of speech? |
39061 | Here, Nando, are you sure of this?" |
39061 | Him say how massa get him?" |
39061 | How can I rush? |
39061 | How can he help knowing of it? |
39061 | How can we get him into the fort? |
39061 | How can we praise him-- Lokolobolo? |
39061 | How could the negro distinguish? |
39061 | How could they do it? |
39061 | How does it go on? |
39061 | How is the rubber to be paid for?" |
39061 | How long must he remain helpless here, unable to lift a hand in defence of the oppressed? |
39061 | How many huts did it contain? |
39061 | How supply the strangers too? |
39061 | How would he find his uncle? |
39061 | I do n''t want Uncle to fall into Elbel''s hands, but how can I stop it?" |
39061 | I have learn dat your men have rifles; I see dem myself; dey even hold deir rifles at de salute, dey have military training, hein? |
39061 | I shall certainly go; the question is, shall I go armed?" |
39061 | I think I have the pleasure of addressing Monsieur Elbel?" |
39061 | I''ve too little flesh on me bones now; what would I be if I grizzled?" |
39061 | If he could capture the stores, would he not have the main body at his mercy? |
39061 | If that happened, Samba wondered, would he be able to disengage himself from the tangle of branches and swim clear? |
39061 | If the canoe did not meet with disaster from without, why not from within? |
39061 | Ilombekabasi? |
39061 | Is it fire? |
39061 | Is it legal to incite a night attack on peaceable travellers?" |
39061 | Is it legal to shoot and maim the natives as you have been doing for a hundred miles and more along the river? |
39061 | Is it water? |
39061 | Is n''t the cause of the negroes every bit as good as the cause of the Bulgarians or Macedonians or Armenians? |
39061 | Is there any such freedom? |
39061 | It was very foolish, he thought; they were both such good fellows: it was quite clear that they ought to be friends; but what was a dog to do? |
39061 | Jack, are you there?" |
39061 | Lepoko fink bofe make two holes-- how can do uvver way?" |
39061 | Lokolobolo had brought water into their camp; but who had made water run in a swift river where no river had ever been before? |
39061 | May I make you a proposal? |
39061 | Monsieur Elbel summoned us----""Where is Monsieur Elbel, monsieur?" |
39061 | Mr. Arlington, you are no longer a member of Parliament, I believe?" |
39061 | Mr. Martindale-- I zink dat is de name-- have found de gold he sought?" |
39061 | Muss see; s''pose he go fetch bad man and shoot massa? |
39061 | Nando go to Boma with old massa; what den? |
39061 | Nando, when shall we get to this Banonga we''ve heard so much about?" |
39061 | Nando, where''s Samba?" |
39061 | Nando?" |
39061 | No father and mother!--Barnard said there was gold; why ca n''t he find it?--No, that''s not a nugget, that''s---- Only a dog, eh? |
39061 | No mercy had been shown to them: why should they show mercy? |
39061 | Now Mr. Nando, would you plase tell us if you ate a big supper uv maniac last night?" |
39061 | Now, Jack, ready? |
39061 | Of what good are knives against guns? |
39061 | On the way the shouts of the paddlers became more coherent; what was this they were saying? |
39061 | Only a few escaped-- they wander in the forest, who knows where? |
39061 | Only wan thing, sorr; ye would not have any inshuperable objection to Pat, sorr?" |
39061 | Or perhaps his eyes had deceived him? |
39061 | Or say, Jack, d''you think we are being watched?" |
39061 | Or would they be so much alarmed that nothing but flight would occur to them? |
39061 | Ought he in any case to leave the fort? |
39061 | Ought he to think of it? |
39061 | Rubber and parrots; what next, I wonder? |
39061 | Samba hab got Nando him knife: what for Nando no hab nuffin at all?" |
39061 | Savvy?" |
39061 | See?" |
39061 | Shall I fish for that nugget?" |
39061 | Shall we go and get some hippo meat? |
39061 | Shall we join hands in this? |
39061 | She gave me a screech and went black in the face, an''sure''twas for the same fun I''m here this blessed minute?'' |
39061 | Should he let them loose, to work their will upon their oppressors? |
39061 | Should he risk all, spring overboard, and swim for the bank? |
39061 | Should he take him? |
39061 | So it had happened to other villages: how could he hope that Banonga would be spared? |
39061 | So that when Barney met him as he re- entered the fort, and asked eagerly,"Well, sorr, and did the patient swallow the pill?" |
39061 | Something must be done; yet what? |
39061 | Suppose we shot Elbel? |
39061 | Supposing he failed, what would happen to the hundreds of people who depended on him? |
39061 | Surely, surely, he was not in danger-- he would not die? |
39061 | The huts will not hold half of us; and who are you?" |
39061 | The intruder was alone, and a negro; Why not try to capture him? |
39061 | The other continued--"Well, monsieur, what is the position? |
39061 | The sentries are arranged for the night, eh?" |
39061 | Then a thought occurred to him: Why wait upon chance? |
39061 | There are no cannibals in these days-- eh, Jack?" |
39061 | There''s Elbel himself, do you see? |
39061 | These people were strangers; why should they have better habitations and stronger defences than they themselves? |
39061 | This boat''s rather low down now, but d''you think we could make a bump?" |
39061 | Vat good is de American or de English in de Congo Free State? |
39061 | Ve must not be indiscreet, hein? |
39061 | Was he hurt, he wondered? |
39061 | Was he very ill? |
39061 | Was it a wild beast, he wondered, prowling for food? |
39061 | Was it because Samba was going away? |
39061 | Was it he, Lieutenant Jennaert, who was being called upon to surrender? |
39061 | Was it possible that the crocodile, though wounded, was still following? |
39061 | Was it possible to cut off the main body from its stores? |
39061 | Was not his place at the fort, at Ilombekabasi, with Barney and Imbono and Mboyo, the people for and with whom he had already toiled and fought? |
39061 | Was the fort, indeed, still there? |
39061 | Was there much forest about it? |
39061 | Was there not enough of it and to spare in the forest? |
39061 | Was this the Captain Van Vorst, he wondered, who, Elbel had told him, was coming up the river? |
39061 | Was this the end of the bright young life, so full of promise? |
39061 | Was this villain to remain unpunished? |
39061 | Was this, apparently his only opportunity, to be lost? |
39061 | We''ll aim at the nearest, as you say; are you ready?" |
39061 | Well, it does n''t raise my opinion of Mr. Elbel; you know a man by the company he keeps, eh?" |
39061 | Well, that''s settled, eh? |
39061 | Well, what does it mean when they return? |
39061 | Were not the drumsticks in his village made of_ botofé_? |
39061 | Were these atrocities going on throughout the Congo Free State? |
39061 | Were they indeed a part of the system of government? |
39061 | What about your bet, eh, Jack?" |
39061 | What about your wound?" |
39061 | What am I to do with the boy, supposing he gets better? |
39061 | What can he do?" |
39061 | What can we do for him, Barney?" |
39061 | What can we do with him? |
39061 | What can we do with him?" |
39061 | What can we do? |
39061 | What cared they if several of their number fell before the tyrants''rifles? |
39061 | What chance was there of fulfilling his uncle''s wishes there? |
39061 | What could have happened? |
39061 | What could he do? |
39061 | What could it be? |
39061 | What d''ye think that little varmint has done now?" |

39061 | What do you suggest?" |
39061 | What do you think of this? |
39061 | What do you think, Jack?" |
39061 | What does he want now?" |
39061 | What does the white man mean by talking to us? |

39061 | What had startled them? |
39061 | What has happened? |
39061 | What has he to gain by routing the little band behind? |
39061 | What hope was there of his parents''rescue now? |
39061 | What if the man''s assurances were false, and there had never been any intention of seeking his father? |
39061 | What is he doing here?" |
39061 | What is it about wicked doers? |
39061 | What is that? |
39061 | What is the good of you? |
39061 | What of the natives who for so many months had looked to him for guidance and leadership? |
39061 | What on earth can we do? |

39061 | What''s the good of firing when you ca n''t take aim? |
