18357	And what do you think, Captain Carstairs?
18357	And where is that somewhere, do you think?

18357	But did not you know?
18357	But do you seriously think, major, that the king means to attack the Russians?

18357	But others are coming?
18357	But what on earth does it all mean? 18357 But what was the cause of Ben Soloman''s hostility to you?"
18357	But where is the Jew he put over you?
18357	But which way, Charlie? 18357 But who are the good fellows who helped you?"

18357	Did others come with you?
18357	Did they think my father was going to arm you all, and defend the place?

18357	Do you know him?
18357	Do you know this country well, Jervoise?
18357	Do you know what the colonel can want him for, at this time of the evening? 18357 Do you know what they are doing?"

18357	How do you feel today?
18357	How do you feel?

18357	How long is it since any of you saw him last?
18357	How many charges have you?
18357	How strong were you?
18357	How, indeed?
18357	Hullo, Banks, what is it? 18357 I suppose there is no word of the arrest of the man, or his accomplices?
18357	I suppose you will do it north of here?
18357	I wonder what he was doing in this forest alone? 18357 Is it a serious wound?"
18357	Is not the czar very fierce and cruel?
18357	Is there another gate to the city, on this side of the town, beside that by which the Swedes will enter? 18357 Is there not some mistake, young gentlemen?"
18357	It was a hunting party, was it not?
18357	Manage what, sir?
18357	May I ask what it was, Captain Carstairs, for it seems to me that you are full of happy ideas?
18357	No ill news, I hope, Charlie?
18357	Not Mat Jervoise, surely?
18357	Now, what have you in the hut? 18357 Oh, you have got a banker, captain?"
18357	Shall I go up with you, Charlie, or will you go alone?
18357	Shall we fire again?
18357	Shall we take the horse with us?
18357	So Jervoise, and his son, and that good fellow Jamieson are all back again? 18357 So you are Sandy Anderson,"he said heartily, with a merry twinkle in his eye,"my connection, it seems, and the friend of my dear classmate Jamieson?
18357	So you fought at the Dwina, too? 18357 So you have meddled in politics, eh?"
18357	So you heard the story, that I had killed Ben Soloman, before you left?
18357	The lad has not been getting into a scrape, I hope?
18357	The question is: how long has this been going on?
18357	Then I am really to be exchanged tomorrow, doctor?
18357	Then what would you do?
18357	Then why should we roll and toss about so much?
18357	Then you got my letter, Charlie?
18357	Then you were present at Charles''third victory? 18357 Then, even if I were known, in the city, to be in the Swedish service, there would be little danger, Stanislas?"
18357	Then, what would you do?
18357	Was the window open when he came?
18357	We could not arrest him now, I suppose?
18357	Well, Charlie, how have you succeeded?
18357	Well, Charlie, is all satisfactorily settled? 18357 Well, Doctor Kelly, when do you think the czar will be here?"
18357	Well, Jervoise, what do you think of the orders?
18357	Well, Master Charcoal Burner,the leader of the party said,"how is it that honest woodmen consort with rogues of the town?"
18357	Well, Master Englishman,Ben Soloman said, as he came up to his bedside,"what do you think of things?"
18357	Well, comrade, and who are you?
18357	Well, lads, and how did you feel when the shots were whistling about?
18357	Well, what is to be done? 18357 What are you going to do, Charlie?"
18357	What are you smiling at?
18357	What are you talking of, Allan?
18357	What are you then-- a Russian? 18357 What are you thinking of?"
18357	What can have scared them?
18357	What did the pig say?
18357	What did you think of my friend, Charlie?
18357	What do you think of that?
18357	What do you think of this expedition, Captain Carstairs?
18357	What have you been doing ever since you left Plescow? 18357 What have you to say, Captain Carstairs?"
18357	What is it, Charlie?
18357	What is it, father,Harry asked,"that the Swedes and Danes are going to fight about?"
18357	What is the joke, Harry?
18357	What mean you, lad?
18357	What regiment do you belong to?
18357	What say you, gentlemen? 18357 What sort of man was he?"
18357	What sport have you had, father?
18357	What was I saying when that confounded stone interrupted us?
18357	What was his name?
18357	What were the party you were with doing in the wood?
18357	What''s the news?
18357	What, not Charlie Carstairs?
18357	When am I to start?
18357	When were you there last?
18357	Where am I, how did I get here?
18357	Where are you, my boy? 18357 Where did you come from?"
18357	Where does he go to?
18357	Where does this pathway lead to?
18357	Where shall I send to you, sir, if I have any news that it is urgent you should know of?
18357	Which of you speaks Swedish?
18357	Which of you will tell the story?
18357	Who would ever be the wiser? 18357 Why did you not tell me before, Doctor Kelly?
18357	Why not? 18357 Why should I care about what they say?
18357	Why should n''t I go to the house?
18357	Why the last three days, Norman?
18357	Why, Charlie,Sir Marmaduke Carstairs exclaimed as he entered,"who would have thought of seeing you?
18357	Why, Norman, do n''t you know me?
18357	Why, gentlemen, you are not thinking of going on such a day as this? 18357 Will it be soon?"
18357	Wondering how we are to get across, lieutenant?
18357	Would it be possible to get my father out of prison, sir? 18357 You are sure he said that you were to ask for him, if you were a second time taken prisoner?"
18357	You do n''t belong to the king''s party, count?
18357	You do n''t remember us, I suppose, my man?
18357	You do n''t suppose we are going to have a battle of Narva once a week, do you? 18357 You do not feel nervous, I hope?
18357	You guess who I am, I suppose?
18357	You have a horse, Stanislas?
18357	You have got another step?
18357	You have heard the news, I suppose, of the action of the parliament last month?
18357	You have n''t settled on the night yet, I suppose, captain?
18357	You have no documents, father, that the man could have found?
18357	You have not heard anything, from your father, of our being wanted, have you?
18357	You have not seen these gentlemen yet, Sarah?
18357	You know no one else who could move in your matter?
18357	You know what that means?
18357	You know why I have sent for you, Carstairs?
18357	You slept well and breakfasted well, Captain Carstairs?
18357	You understand what I want?
18357	You will take me with you, too, father?
18357	You wo n''t tell your father?
18357	You would not say that it was to Narva?
18357	''Where is Master Charles Carstairs?''
18357	And do you think the king was really in earnest?"
18357	And how have you been getting on, father?"
18357	And how is it that you have lived through the night?
18357	And what is it you are doing here, as a Swede, at all?"
18357	And what is your name?
18357	And you have been wounded, and a prisoner among the Russians?
18357	And you like Charles of Sweden?"
18357	Are you better pleased, now you have thought the matter over?"
18357	Are you hurt anywhere else?"
18357	Are you in pain?
18357	Are you the person in question, sir?"
18357	At what time shall I come this evening?"
18357	At which port will you land?"
18357	Bad taste, was n''t it?
18357	But how is it to be done?"
18357	But how is it to be proved, sir?
18357	But it will take years to complete, and it will surely be terribly unhealthy here?"
18357	But what am I to say to the fellows?
18357	But what has that to do with Nicholson, for that is the man''s name who came out just now?"
18357	But whether he may think fit to do so in one year, or in twenty years hence, who can say?
18357	But who would not get into passions, when there is so much work to be done, and everyone tries to hinder instead of to help?
18357	But why was I brought here, instead of being taken to my lodgings?"
18357	But, even if all the papers should be put into the hands of the authorities, what would come of it?
18357	By the way, why did you not ask for me at once?"
18357	Did he kill Ben Soloman?"
18357	Did n''t they get up an insurrection, only because he wanted them to cut off their beards?
18357	Did you see my father at Gottenburg?"
18357	Do the men join in them willingly?"
18357	Do you know Warsaw?"
18357	Do you know that?"
18357	Do you not think so?"
18357	Do you think I would run away?"
18357	Do you wish to be transferred from the service of Sweden to that of her majesty?
18357	Does Sir Marmaduke think, then, that he will be arrested?"
18357	Had you the honour of any personal intercourse with the king?"
18357	Harry was the first to gasp out:"Has my father arrived?"
18357	Has he been asked about my exchange, and is the Swedish officer still here?"
18357	Has he not saved me from the loss of about four or five thousand men, and probably a total defeat?
18357	Has the scoundrel hurt you?"
18357	Have I your permission to do so, or is it to be kept a close secret?"
18357	Have all escaped in safety?"
18357	Have you any idea who he was?"
18357	Have you grown tired of doing nothing, and is it a desire to see something of a stirring life that has brought you over here?"
18357	Have your own men had food yet?"
18357	He is still alive and well, I hope?"
18357	Here, for years, has he been working to make an army, and the first time they meet an enemy worthy of the name, what do they do?
18357	How can I argue with them?
18357	How can I express my thanks to you?"
18357	How can trade be carried on, if the country is to be disturbed by plots, and conspiracies?"
18357	How could they tell that, at daybreak, the general would not have given orders for the left wing to attack the Swedes?
18357	How did he get you down, lad?"
18357	How did you get away without being noticed?"
18357	How far do you intend to march?"
18357	How far is it to the next village?"
18357	How is your dear father?"
18357	How will that meet the views of the English and Scotch Jacobites?"
18357	I do not doubt that you will do your business well, and you know that you will be well paid for it; what can either of us require more?"
18357	I suppose you have leave at present?"
18357	If they do n''t, what is the use of being brothers?
18357	Is that so?
18357	Jervoise?"
18357	No bad news, I hope?"
18357	Now what is to be done?"
18357	Now, tell me, how did they treat you?"
18357	One of the women said:"Why do you trouble poor people like us?
18357	Perhaps it is n''t too late to change, eh?"
18357	Still, the life is a pleasant one, and unless we disbanded soldiers took to it, what would there be for us to do?
18357	That is good news, Charlie; and you have been promoted?
18357	The Russian was silent for a moment, then he asked:"Who was the officer in command?"
18357	The first question is, will he stay here for the night or not-- and if he does not, which way will he go?"
18357	The question is, are there any intrenchments ahead?
18357	Then I may mention the matter to Major Jervoise?"
18357	They say there are at least twenty thousand Russians round the town, and where is an army to come from that can compel them to raise the siege?
18357	Think you, that when we get farther to the east, we shall be able to make our way more easily up into Livonia?"
18357	Well, well, who would have thought he would have climbed the tree so quickly?"
18357	Were you well treated at Bercov?"
18357	What can I do for you?
18357	What can he have to say to your father?"
18357	What could have been more easy?
18357	What do you desire next?''
18357	What do you think of the proposal?"
18357	What does Alured want to make enemies for?
18357	What has happened to you?"
18357	What have they brought me here for?
18357	What induced you to make this confession?"
18357	What is the best way to set about it?"
18357	What is the fellow''s name and description?"
18357	What storm?
18357	What was it brought you to that window?
18357	What will be the consequence?
18357	When is there a ship sailing, father?"
18357	Where do you suppose that you are going?"
18357	Where would you rather ride-- after us, or behind the escort?"
18357	Which is your best company of infantry?"
18357	Who could believe that such a matter as this would be confided to a lad of my age?"
18357	Who is this Scotch- looking lad with you?"
18357	Who would have thought that two Jews and a Pole would have been cheated by an English lad?
18357	Why do I choose him?
18357	Why, my brave fellow, what brings you here?"
18357	Will you name your price for them?"
18357	You have got pen and ink and paper, I suppose?"
18357	You have heard of his death?"
