34725If it is something... suppose it is something that we ca n''t explain?
34725If it''s anything, Theo... it has nothing to do with us, you say?
34725If it''s something... if it''s something that we ca n''t explain, then...."Then what?
34725In what, resident?
34725Is it birds or insects?
34725Is it no use?
34725Is n''t this it, mem- sahib?

34725May I?
34725May we not have suggested it unconsciously?
34725Mina? 34725 Must we have the lights out?"
34725My activities? 34725 Nature, then?"
34725Nor I.... Only...."What?
34725Not real?
34725Not real?
34725Not so indifferent as I was?
34725Nothing?
34725Of that nonsense? 34725 Oh, really?"
34725Oh, what does it matter?
34725Oh, why not?
34725Oorip said the moaning came from the palace...."What do you mean?
34725Oorip... has anything happened... this afternoon?
34725Perhaps.... Tell me, am I not too old?
34725Physically: have n''t I changed physically?
34725Really? 34725 Rebellion?
34725Say, band playing to- night?
34725Say,whispered Doddie,"that papa... eh?
34725Sonny,she thought,"how will it be with you?
34725Tell me, do n''t you think India a horrible country?... 34725 Tell me,"she said,"am I a flirt?"
34725The eight of us?
34725The table has spoken.... What did it say?... 34725 Then why?"
34725There, what did I tell you?
34725To send soldiers?
34725To- morrow evening, resident, at your house?
34725Used I to be a bore?
34725Was it the residèn?
34725Well, regent,asked the resident, in Dutch,"how is the raden- aju pangà © ran?"
34725Well, then, the spacious material life?
34725Well, what about it?

34725Well?
34725Well?
34725Were you at the gate with your sister?
34725What about it?
34725What are the plans? 34725 What brought you here?"
34725What can one do, mem- sahib?... 34725 What custom is that?"
34725What danger?
34725What do I know? 34725 What do I know?"
34725What does it matter to you? 34725 What does wicked mean?
34725What for?
34725What have you put in this glass?
34725What is it, LÃ © onie?
34725What is it, LÃ © onie?
34725What is it, Saina?
34725What is it?
34725What makes you what you are, so curiously European? 34725 What sort of animal can it be?"
34725What''s the matter?
34725What? 34725 What?"
34725What?
34725What?
34725When does mamma arrive to- morrow?
34725When shall we have the first meeting, with the committee and the ladies?
34725Where are you going to?
34725Where are you, Oorip?
34725Where has she gone?
34725Where were you?
34725Where?
34725Where?
34725Where?
34725Which shall I begin with? 34725 Who threw that?"
34725Who was with you? 34725 Who''s suggesting those words?"
34725Why all this confusion and turmoil of mankind, when to- morrow perhaps everything may have ceased to exist?
34725Why am I supposed to have been with you at the gate?
34725Why attach any value to life when I may die to- morrow?
34725Why does n''t Mrs. van Oudijck do it herself?
34725Why not to- night, to- night at last?... 34725 Why not?"
34725Why not?
34725Why was n''t the child allowed to stay?
34725Why? 34725 Why?"
34725Why?
34725Why?
34725Why?
34725Why?
34725Will you see that there are flowers in mamma''s room to- morrow?
34725With mamma... you would, yes?
34725Wo n''t they bother you?
34725Yes, but then what is it?
34725Yes, excellency?
34725Yes, papa?
34725Yes, you have: you''re more jealous, more superstitious, more touchy.... What more do you want?
34725You? 34725 You?"
34725Your country? 34725 Your own activities?"
34725A colony in which there is always so much going on?
34725A hand now opened them cautiously.... She looked round smiling:"What is it, Theo?"
34725Addie,"she continued gently, in kind, motherly tones, as though addressing two children,"how can you behave like this and be out with Doddie so late?
34725Addie?
34725Addie?"
34725Am I not getting wrinkled?"
34725Am I really getting jealous?
34725And do you know the strange part of it?
34725And his watching eyes glided up and down the back of his master, who simply stood and gazed into the distance: what was he gazing at?...
34725And then at Ngadjiwa too there was the brother, the card- player, the gambler: why should just he be so unlucky in his regents?
34725And was everything actually known?
34725And what does the fellow want?"
34725And what happened?"
34725And where, asked Van Oudijck, had a regent, descended from an ancient race, ever behaved as the Regent of Ngadjiwa had at the race- ball?
34725And why the world and poor humanity?"
34725And you are going... in a week?
34725And, when she rose to go, saying that it was getting late, he felt very sad:"And so I shall never see you again?"
34725Are n''t you well?
34725Arranging theatricals?"
34725But how long would that yearning last?
34725But tell me; have n''t I changed more than that?"
34725But what of her?
34725But who then?
34725But, my God, mevrouwtje, tell me, what was it?
34725By whom?"
34725CHAPTER TWENTY- EIGHT"And how are you, mevrouwtje?
34725Could she then not always keep hidden the secrets of her mystery, the secrets of reality?
34725Did he know, did he suspect anything?
34725Did he suspect, behind this wall of invulnerability, the ironical feminine secrecy of her silently smouldering inner life?
34725Did n''t she save the poor child yesterday?
34725Do I look thirty- two?"
34725Do n''t you care for India any longer, do n''t you care for Labuwangi, where we all make so much of you?...
34725Do none of you feel the same?
34725Do you believe it was ghosts?
34725Do you ever see her?"
34725Do you feel it here?"
34725Do you know anything about it?"
34725Do you know?
34725Do you understand that expression?...
34725For from the new well the woman rises with the bleeding hole in her breast.... And Miss Doddie....""What of her?"
34725For what was she, what did she do?
34725Getting up parties?
34725Go and live at the Hague; join the Charity Organization Society... with a collecting- box at your door and a rix- dollar... how often?"
34725Had n''t she better warn Van Oudijck, like a kind, solicitous mother?...
34725Half of mankind was suffering poverty and struggling upwards out of that darkness... to what?
34725Have you ever spoken to him?"
34725Have you never been to Europe?"
34725He just wrinkled his brows; then he smiled again, with the jovial smile about his thick moustache, and looked up with inquisitive eyes:"What?"
34725He laughed almost aloud and asked:"But why?"
34725He laughed:"What next?
34725Her voice shook, but he did not hear it, blind to what she did, deaf to what she said, still absorbed in his papers:"What''s that?"
34725How are you, my god of beauty, the ruin of all good women?"
34725How could they avoid going to the fancy- fair?
34725How did people know?
34725How glad you will be to see your father and mother and to hear some good music?
34725How often did it not happen that a month went by at Ngadjiwa before the regent paid the native heads their salaries?
34725How''s the depression?
34725I believe I have it in me to enjoy Paris thoroughly....""Do I bore you too?"
34725I believe I have still quite a future before me, something very different....""In Paris?"
34725I should never want to go....""Not even when you reflect that there are hundreds of women in Europe whom you have never loved?"
34725I think it''s wonderful to have met you: I like you as a change.... Help me, ca n''t you?
34725I want to go to Paris.... Will you come too?"
34725I''m feeling for everything with my antennà ¦, like a wingless insect.... What is my life?...
34725In Europe?
34725In India?
34725In her despair she succumbed to a sort of nihilism that made her ask:"What is the reason of anything?...
34725Is India suiting you any better to- day?"
34725Is that papa?"
34725Is that the trouble?"
34725Is this all on account of the theatricals?"
34725It was an unlucky day.... And with the new well....""What about the new well?"
34725It''s all my fault, is n''t it?
34725It''s all right, is n''t it, resident, as long as it''s not a''reception''?"
34725Just at this time and on this spot?...
34725Live at Nice?
34725LÃ © onie entered:"Where is Mrs. van Does?"
34725Might the little girl come back to the damp cottage in the compound?
34725Mrs. van Does looked up delightedly:"There, what did I tell you?
34725Mrs. van Does returned the stones to the bottle:"A joke, yes, mevrouw?
34725My husband does n''t feel it; he works, as all you men do: what else is there to do in India but work, regardless of the heat?
34725Oh, why am I like this, sonny?
34725One of the good things in India?"
34725Oorip, wash me here, ca n''t you?...
34725Perhaps I''ve become more so.... Tell me, have I changed, lately?"
34725Prefer your step- mother?"
34725Quiet?
34725Si- Oudijck looked up suddenly:"Oh, is it really?"
34725So I can rely on you?"
34725Sonny, sonny, how will it be with you?"
34725Suppose that one day he began to believe things?
34725Tell me, do you understand me?
34725Tell me: is there anything I can do for you?"
34725The population is increasing steadily.... Declining?
34725The taps were counted and spelt:"LÃ ©... onie Ou... dijck....""What about Mrs. van Oudijck?"
34725Theo?
34725There''s a great deal of love- making in India, is n''t there, doctor?...
34725Things are stronger than men....""Might n''t it really be wild cats... and a man throwing stones?"
34725True, the gecko was gibing like a mocking imp, with a sort of dry humour; and the watchman, with his"Who goes there?"
34725Van Oudijck became red and angry:"To the band?
34725Van Oudijck pressed the thin fingers of the Javanese:"Can I trust you?"
34725Was it Oorip?
34725What can I help you in, resident?"
34725What could it have to do with us?
34725What did he see blowing up in the wind?...
34725What did it matter to her that Van Oudijck, thinking of the noble old pangà © ran, was grieved by his children''s visible decline?
34725What did she care: what harm could marriage do to her, LÃ © onie?
34725What else was there in life but to yield to one''s luxurious cravings?
34725What game were they playing?
34725What had become of his ambition?
34725What had happened to decrease his love of authority?
34725What is Mrs. van Oudijck?"
34725What is he thinking now?...
34725What next?
34725What then, in Heaven''s name, what then?"
34725What was inside them?
34725What was it, Mrs. van Oudijck wondered: sugar, crystals?
34725What will be your portion?
34725What''s her name?"
34725What''s upsetting you, what''s making you so unhappy?
34725When shall I cease to rave about Il Trovatore and manage to visit Bayreuth?
34725When shall I come within range of you, Eva?
34725When shall I see Europe?
34725Where to?"
34725Where, Doddie?
34725Where?
34725Who could have sent the letters?
34725Who hated her so much, who could be interested in writing like this to her husband?
34725Who''s going to rebel?"
34725Why all this tiny whirl of life?"
34725Why are you crying?
34725Why did n''t they tell Kario at once to ask me?
34725Why do we bring all the paraphernalia of our costly civilization with us, considering that it''s bound not to last?
34725Why do you begin so late?
34725Why do you go out walking so late?
34725Why is he behaving like this?...
34725Why should I have to work so hard in India, if things were quiet at Labuwangi?...
34725Why the world and the people in it and the mountains?...
34725Why-- if we must be here-- don''t we live simply and plant paddy and live on nothing?"
34725Will you help me once more?"
34725Will you look at, Mrs. van Oudijck, yes?
34725Will you make a careful note of that, doctor?"
34725With no money?
34725Would Oorip always hold her tongue?
34725Would it ever come to a match?
34725Would they end by proving her destruction, notwithstanding all her tactfulness?
34725Yes, what would he do, pensioned off?
34725You do n''t, do you?
34725You must help me, you will, wo n''t you?"
34725You think it''s quiet here?
34725You''ll promise, wo n''t you?"
34725Yours is still alive, is n''t she?
34725she said:"How can you?"
60751''Are you aware,''I continued still more hotly,''that I was actually required to send a poor innocent man into banishment?'' 60751 ''But, Resident,''I cried, in despair,''do you really know what Mrs. van Gulpendam did propose to me?''
60751''During the ingathering of the nests-- but how shall I get through it all? 60751 ''Have you any preference for that place?''
60751''How can you ask such a question?'' 60751 ''Meanwhile?''
60751''My dear Charles, what was I about? 60751 ''She spoke to you then of your future prospects, as well as on the subject of your present request?''
60751''So, so,''said he,''does the wind sit in that quarter? 60751 ''We saw some horrid sights at Kaligaweh, did we not?
60751''What was my intention?'' 60751 ''Will that take me far out of my way?''
60751''Would not Wonosobo do just as well?'' 60751 ''You do not therefore deprive me of hope?''
60751A Chinese wedding?
60751A girl like me?
60751A hiding place?
60751A lucky day?
60751A mistake,said the Resident;"what do you mean?"
60751A nonna, you say?
60751A pretty sum indeed-- Truly it is a lucky day, for added to what I have got--"What have you got?
60751A sad thing?
60751A secret remedy?
60751A severe case of what?
60751A telegram?
60751About Ardjan?
60751Ah, yes-- Muizenkop did catch it-- I say what has come of that business?
60751All right,said his wife,"let us have breakfast, but that will not, I hope, prevent you from answering my question?"
60751Am I then unlike all other girls that a marriage with me would be less possible?
60751An outrage?
60751An ultimatum,cried van Nerekool,"a declaration of war?
60751And I think the monopoly for the next three years will be granted some time this month?
60751And about beetles and snakes?
60751And all of it out of your opium contract, eh?
60751And are you quite ready now?
60751And can we do nothing? 60751 And did you make that proposal to Charles?--Yes?
60751And did you succeed in finding opium?
60751And does that work well?
60751And from whom has Miss Anna got all this information?
60751And have you grubbed up the floor?
60751And have you turned over the baleh- baleh and the cushions?
60751And her hair, ma?
60751And how did you get to know all this, Miss Meidema?
60751And how long,asked van Gulpendam, somewhat eagerly,"do the effects of such an urtication, as you call it, last?"
60751And how many oppassers do you intend to bring?
60751And in the ashes under the hearth?
60751And is it not then right and proper,continued van Rheijn,"that the Government should guard against possible fraud?
60751And may I beg you to tell me what are those names?
60751And my Anna,asked the young man,"does she also look upon me as a dreamer and an enthusiast?"
60751And my sonata in D dur,replied the young man,"what has become of it?
60751And now, may I reckon upon you, madam, to intercede for Lim Ho?
60751And now, mother,continued Anna, softly,"can you forgive your child for having obeyed the voice of her heart?"
60751And now, your rifle?
60751And tell me,continued the Resident,"will it leave any serious consequences?"
60751And that was the reason, I suppose, why you took Dalima with you?
60751And that woman?
60751And the Chinese eat such trash as that and like it?
60751And the Netherland''s Missionary Society?
60751And the moral of the story is?
60751And the opium was discovered, you say, close to the spot where Ardjan was picked up?
60751And the others?
60751And the tea?
60751And they found the djoekoeng in which he came ashore did they not?
60751And what about me, then?
60751And what became of the two coast districts, which the company Hok Bie had taken?
60751And what cause of complaint may he have?
60751And what course have you taken?
60751And what do the letters on those lanterns signify? 60751 And what happened next?"
60751And what is his letter about, Charles?
60751And what is it about?
60751And what is the chemist''s opinion?
60751And where did they take you to?
60751And where did you make this haul?
60751And where is Grenits?
60751And where is he now?
60751And who may the happy couple be?
60751And why, madam,replied he,"what may have led you to suppose that I would have denied myself the pleasure of presenting myself here to- night?"
60751And will they take rice for payment?
60751And you did not leave master Leo running about by himself in the garden?
60751And you found nothing?
60751And you have only had the contract for three years, I think, babah?
60751And you manage to be so pretty frequently?
60751And you will be the man to hold it, wo n''t you?
60751And you,said Laurentia, turning to another of her newly- arrived guests,"have not these sad tidings given you a great deal to do?
60751And,asked Verstork deliberately,"And-- your affection for this girl is, you say, very strong?"
60751And,persisted Grenits,"can you actually vouch for their efficacy?"
60751And--cried Anna,"to that condition of marriage he replied''never?''
60751And--?
60751And?
60751And?
60751And?
60751And?
60751Angry? 60751 Anna, dearest Anna, what do you think of me?
60751Anna, my dear child, now just tell me what could have induced you to walk about in the garden alone with Mr. van Nerekool last night?
60751Anything else?
60751Anything particular?
60751Are all your men here, Loerah?
60751Are children very expensive?
60751Are the courts so very busy just now?
60751Are they medicine?
60751Are we in a good position here?
60751Are you coming to bed?
60751Are you sure,asked Grashuis,"that we are going in the right direction?
60751At Karang Anjer?
60751Aye, aye,continued Grashuis,"I know that well; but we all of us intend to participate in the good work, do we not?"
60751Aye, aye,returned van Rheijn;"but is all this true?"
60751Aye,cried Verstork,"that is the very thing I have been cudgelling my brains about?"
60751Because, before Anna left me she made me promise her--"What, njaa?
60751Both dead,she kept repeating again and again,"what did they die of?
60751Bracelets, njonja? 60751 But Edward, I hope you do not distrust the Council of India?"
60751But I suppose,continued van Gulpendam--"you, Mr. Thomasz, will be able to tell us what happened?"
60751But I want to know,remarked August van Beneden,"is the use of opium really as injurious to the body as men say it is?
60751But do tell me, Meidema,asked his wife,"what can have happened that has so terribly unnerved you?"
60751But do you know for certain, Miss Anna,said van Nerekool, under cover of the noise,"that it was opium?"
60751But has not the Government other expenses to meet?
60751But have these grumblers really so very much to complain of?
60751But her parents?
60751But how long will he be?
60751But how so?
60751But how then did you manage to find me, Dalima?
60751But is that enough?
60751But ma, did you see her face?
60751But may I beg of you,continued he,"to let me know for what purpose you drew the parallel?
60751But meanwhile,repeated van Gulpendam,"what news has the girl to tell me?"
60751But was that opium brought ashore by Ardjan and Dalima?
60751But we shall have the moon to- night, shall we not?
60751But what can have become of that sonata? 60751 But what can you have against him?"
60751But what did she say to you, ma?
60751But what is the meaning of the quotation?
60751But what the deuce do you mean--''by your very sad thing?''
60751But what then am I to tell Lim Ho?
60751But what then does she intend to do?
60751But what ultimately became of the Bengawan contract after the farmer''s bankruptcy?
60751But what was I to do, Kandjeng toean? 60751 But what,"asked the other,"had we better do now with Ardjan?
60751But where is she now, njaa?
60751But where on earth can she be then?
60751But why not, njaa?
60751But why? 60751 But will you allow me for a few moments to watch your mother''s play and take a lesson from her?"
60751But yet?
60751But you knew that you would not find me at Karang Anjer?
60751But you know at least in which direction she went?
60751But, Anna,persisted her mother, speaking in her most honeyed and winning tones,"but, Anna, my dear girl, why should you talk thus?
60751But, Anna,said he,"why should you not become my wife?"
60751But, Dalima,objected Anna,"what is the time?"
60751But, Mrs. Steenvlak,said van Nerekool, adopting another tone,"supposing that I were prepared to accept the present circumstances as they are?"
60751But, Nana,asked Dalima,"whom do they look at then?"
60751But, Nana,she asked,"can it be necessary for you to work and to live thus?
60751But, Resident, what do you mean-- Do you not then think it a most infamous business?
60751But, can it be true?
60751But, can you be sure it was meant for a gift?
60751But, excuse me,asked van Rheijn,"is it not one of the first duties of every government to make an impost as productive as possible?"
60751But, how many of those chaps have we bowled over I wonder?
60751But, may I ask, why then does not the Kandjeng toean give me back the whole sum?
60751But, mother, do you then really wish me to try and persuade Charles to lend himself to an infamous breach of duty?
60751But, my dear girls, pray remember that a needlewoman would have to be paid, and pray where is the money to come from?
60751But, my dear sir,said van Nerekool,"why should he do such a thing?"
60751But, my dear,objected Laurentia,"do you think that at Batavia they will trouble themselves about the barking of the local papers?"
60751But, my father?
60751But, my friends,objected van Rheijn,"are you not rather one- sided in your view of the matter and rather too hasty in forming an opinion?
60751But, njaa, tell me, do you know where she has gone to?
60751But, van Gulpendam,said his wife,"what are you thinking about?
60751But, what has become of him?
60751But, where are we going to, Nana?
60751But, who has treated him so dreadfully?
60751But,asked Anna, anxiously, and folding her hands as if in prayer,"do you think papa will ever give his consent?"
60751But,asked Anna,"what could have induced him to torture the poor fellow so unmercifully with the kamadoog?"
60751But,asked Grashuis,"who will provide the opium and the pipe?"
60751But,asked Verstork,"what brought you here at all?"
60751But,asked another,"why is Verstork to be removed, and to Atjeh, of all places in the world?"
60751But,asked the anxious mother,"may not all this do you a deal of harm?"
60751But,asked the president,"what reason does the Resident give for this prohibition?"
60751But,continued Anna,"what business had you there?"
60751But,continued he as cheerfully as he could,"but can we not think of some means of warding off the blow?
60751But,cried Gesina,"what can be the matter with her?"
60751But,cried Laurentia,"would you really give our dear, beautiful child to that sanctimonious young prig?"
60751But,cried Lim Ho, half mad with terror,"what have I done?"
60751But,cried Nerekool, in extreme perplexity,"what is it you require me to do?"
60751But,cried van Nerekool passionately,"what does she intend to do-- what kind of plans has she formed?"
60751But,he added, fixing a very strange look upon his inspector,"are you quite sure it is opium?"
60751But,he continued,"what did the secretary mean by alluding to that clause in the opium- law?
60751But,inquired van Rheijn,"ought we to blame the nation for all this?
60751But,insisted van Nerekool in a scarcely audible whisper,"what makes you fear that Ardjan will be suspected?
60751But,interrupted van Beneden somewhat impatiently,"which of us is to submit to the experiment?"
60751But,persisted van Gulpendam,"what do you want the oppassers and the dessa people to do?"
60751But,roared Lim Ho,"what has become of her, then?"
60751But,said Grashuis,"what toeans can she be calling to?"
60751But,said he,"that would hardly put a stop to the proceedings?"
60751But,said she somewhat impatiently,"what then do you want of me?"
60751But,they asked;"what harm have we done?"
60751By Allah-- what is it?
60751By Ardjan? 60751 By Kong, what will be her price if I should need her active help in the case of the girl''s refusal?
60751By all means, Theodoor,said Verstork,"what is it?"
60751By cunning?
60751By the way where can nonna Anna have got to? 60751 By whom?"
60751Can I not in any way move you to pity?
60751Can there be any question of greater moment,asked Henriette, somewhat sharply,"than that of speaking the truth before a judge?"
60751Can you not feel how wretched you are making him, Nana?
60751Can you see anything, Wedono?
60751Can you trust the fellows?
60751Cash down?
60751Certainly I did,replied the woman,"why not?"
60751Certainly,cried van Nerekool, with much warmth,"do you think I would--?"
60751Chicken''s blood?
60751Come, Charles,said Verstork, laying his hand on his friend''s shoulder,"come, Charles, you will come along with us, wo n''t you?"
60751Come, come, you will want some money on the road, eh?
60751Come,said Anna,"what is the matter with you?
60751Could the''djoekoeng''have turned over at sea?
60751Could you find out what business they have in the village?
60751Could you make it out?
60751Dalima''s injuries also?
60751Dalima?
60751Dead?
60751Dear mother,cried Anna,"have you not spoken to papa about it yet?"
60751Did anyone witness the finding of this box under the mat on the baleh- baleh?
60751Did n''t I tell you so?
60751Did n''t they? 60751 Did she get to land?
60751Did the obat have the desired effect?
60751Did you actually see the bandoelan find this box in the girl''s possession?
60751Did you fellows hear that?
60751Did you find that box in the girl''s possession?
60751Did you hear anything else?
60751Did you hear her say anything more, ma?
60751Did you hear my words?
60751Did you hear that? 60751 Did you make the coffee yourself, Miss Anna?"
60751Did you read that report?
60751Did you see him, Dalima?
60751Did you see them, nèh?
60751Did you succeed?
60751Do n''t I wish I may get it? 60751 Do n''t you remember Mokesuep''s business?"
60751Do n''t you see why?
60751Do n''t you think, mammy dear, that would be too great a blessing?
60751Do n''t you think,asked van Rheijn,"we had better get on as fast as we can?
60751Do tell us all about it,cried Henriette,"how is it done?"
60751Do they not again,continued Grenits,"overpass all reasonable limits, by encouraging and fostering the abuse of opium?"
60751Do they not,continued Grenits,"exceed all limits in the pitiful and niggardly way in which they treat their soldiers out here?"
60751Do you believe that?
60751Do you disapprove of my choice, mother dear?
60751Do you fellows now begin to understand?
60751Do you happen to know what the wedding breakfast and this evening''s banquet will cost me?
60751Do you happen to know,asked Grashuis, who was fond of statistics,"what percentage of the inhabitants is given to this abuse of opium?"
60751Do you hear me?
60751Do you intend her to stay long with the Steenvlaks?
60751Do you intend me to swallow that horrid stuff?
60751Do you intend to answer, yes or no?
60751Do you intend to bid for it, babah?
60751Do you intend to tell me then,cried van Gulpendam,"that no smuggling is carried on there?"
60751Do you know how to handle a rifle?
60751Do you know to whom this Kiem Ping Hin belongs?
60751Do you know who it is that has charged your son with ill- treating Ardjan?
60751Do you know, Meidema, what he came here for?
60751Do you know,said Mrs. Meidema,"that his son Lim Ho is about to be married?"
60751Do you make those things, yourself, Nana?
60751Do you not approve of my conduct, Resident?
60751Do you pay ready money? 60751 Do you plead guilty to these charges?"
60751Do you sell those''kains''you make, Nana?
60751Do you think, Drono,asked Lim Ho,"that Singomengolo is still at Santjoemeh?"
60751Do you think,he continued,"that we have pretty well exterminated them?"
60751Do you?
60751Does that pretty little thing look like a smuggler?
60751Eighty thousand?
60751Enough? 60751 Everything shall be in readiness, sir,"replied the secretary;"but will you allow me to make one remark?"
60751Faithful, you call them? 60751 For the bridegroom?"
60751For whom? 60751 Friends?
60751From Murowski?
60751From William Verstork?
60751From our Pole?
60751From our doctor?
60751Good morning, Mrs. van Gulpendam, do you intend to be present at our session?
60751Granted,replied Grashuis,"but, who made the inhabitants of the Indian Archipelago acquainted with that luxury?"
60751H''m,said the other,"why so?
60751Ha, Verstork-- you here?
60751Had n''t we better,said van Gulpendam,"submit that sample to a chemist for analysis?"
60751Had we not better have a drink first?
60751Has Drono gone yet?
60751Has anyone here any''sirihkalk?''
60751Has he told you so? 60751 Has he?
60751Has she gone to Europe? 60751 Has she got away?"
60751Has the Kandjeng toean any further orders for me?
60751Has the njonja no other orders for me?
60751Have they drowned her?
60751Have they heard nothing?
60751Have you any friends at Batavia,asked van Nerekool,"do you know any one there?"
60751Have you any further orders, sir?
60751Have you any other commands for me, Resident?
60751Have you any stuff with you?
60751Have you anything to say in reply?
60751Have you brought it along with you?
60751Have you ceased to love him then? 60751 Have you ever noticed Kjahi Wangsa, Nana?
60751Have you got any news that you are walking about with the Santjoemeh Herald?
60751Have you had any news from her?
60751Have you looked under the hearth?
60751Have you loved him long?
60751Have you noticed the njonja toean Resident?
60751Have you received an invitation yet?
60751Have you secured the surf- boat itself?
60751Have you seen the Resident lately?
60751Have you tried to obtain one?
60751He came ashore in a''djoekoeng,''I think you told me?
60751He is a notorious opium smuggler, is he not? 60751 Hear what?"
60751His help? 60751 His-- what was at fault, did you say, doctor?"
60751How about Ardjan then?
60751How are you? 60751 How can I tell why?"
60751How can you make that out?
60751How can you touch it, my dear madam?
60751How could I have forgotten that? 60751 How could she do so?"
60751How could there be? 60751 How could they have got into the parcel?
60751How did that come to pass?
60751How do you know that?
60751How do you know that?
60751How do you make that out?
60751How do you suppose a boy is to keep out of a tree?
60751How far is it from here?
60751How is he getting on at Atjeh?
60751How is he?
60751How is that, Resident?
60751How many do you hold now? 60751 How much do you say there was in that packet?"
60751How much may that be?
60751How old are you?
60751How should I know what ship?
60751How should I know?
60751How so, Loerah?
60751How so? 60751 How so?
60751How so?
60751How so?
60751How so?
60751How so?
60751How then did the stuff get there?
60751How then, and when did you discover that you were in love with him?
60751How will what end?
60751How, madam, do you mean to say the Resident applies such terms to me?
60751I confess, it is very stupid of me,replied van Nerekool;"but what news is there, Miss van Gulpendam?"
60751I daresay it is with opium very much as it is with drink; whence did we get the products of distillation? 60751 I daresay she also managed to tumble overboard?"
60751I daresay,said Laurentia;"but-- that horrid murderer-- they are sure to find him guilty, are they not?"
60751I have heard so,replied the young man;"but what of that?"
60751I know he wishes to speak to you about the contract-- it runs out I think with the current year?
60751I know that well enough,interrupted Meidema impetuously;"but did you not this morning call at my house?"
60751I overheard part of their conversation--"Oh,said he,"you listened just a little bit?"
60751I say, old girl, you look very serious, are the girls in the way?
60751I say,cried van Rheijn, not too civilly,"where the devil does a merchant like you get all that information from?"
60751I suppose,put in Grenits,"we must except the Preanger districts?"
60751I wonder how that is?
60751I wonder whom she is looking for?
60751I, Kandjeng toean?
60751I? 60751 I?"
60751I?
60751If I remember rightly, Mr. Meidema,observed van Gulpendam,"that boat is said to have held two persons, Ardjan and Dalima?"
60751If he had not done so,continued the secretary,"you would this day have presided-- would you not?"
60751In that case,continued the Resident,"I suppose there might have been room for the opium if carefully stowed away?"
60751In the Moeara Tjatjing,said van Gulpendam, musingly;"what brought him there, I wonder?"
60751In the morning?
60751In what way?
60751Indeed you have,rejoined Verstork,"and torn off her clothing in the process?"
60751Indeed you have? 60751 Indeed, and what may that mean?"
60751Indeed,replied the Pole,"I am much obliged to you for the information; but where may Bagelen be?"
60751Indeed,said Laurentia, with much assumed interest,"I hope there is no case of serious illness among our friends, doctor?"
60751Indeed,said the other,"what, then, is your opinion?"
60751Indeed,said van Nerekool,"what may that be?"
60751Indeed,said van Rheijn tartly,"am I to suppose that, where a woman''s good name is concerned, you would go by appearances?"
60751Indeed,said van Rheijn, sarcastically,"and how then about the Netherland''s Handelmaatshappij?"
60751Indeed-- bear witness to what?
60751Indeed-- now did I not tell you so? 60751 Is Mr. van Nerekool related to those poor people?"
60751Is he well?
60751Is it as much as that? 60751 Is it my fault, dearest mother,"continued Anna,"that I feel a distaste for all such society?
60751Is it not high time,asked van Nerekool anxiously,"to put a stop to this?
60751Is it possible,exclaimed Grashuis,"to conceive a more cynical confession of the fact that opium demoralises the people?"
60751Is it possible?
60751Is not that right, van Nerekool?
60751Is not the murderer,asked Henriette,"the father of baboe Dalima who accused Lim Ho of--?"
60751Is she in Java? 60751 Is such the case with me?"
60751Is that all?
60751Is that all?
60751Is that mentioned in his report?
60751Is that really the kris?
60751Is that the truth?
60751Is that true?
60751Is that true?
60751Is that true?
60751Is that why the Resident wants to see me?
60751Is that your final decision?
60751Is the lady dead?
60751Is there much more of the letter?
60751Is there no possible means of squaring it with the doctor?
60751It is not?
60751It seems to me then,said Zuidhoorn,"that you do not approve of my line of conduct?"
60751It seems to me we are but six-- Who is missing? 60751 Just so,"replied he;"I can quite understand that; but in what way can I possibly serve you unless you will trust me with all that took place?
60751Just so,replied van Rheijn;"but I have made provision for that?"
60751Karang Anjer? 60751 Leave from the njonja and from nonna Anna, you said?"
60751Lim Ho?
60751Lim Ho?
60751Lose an opportunity of a dance with pretty Miss Anna?
60751Lost his heart? 60751 May not the animals,"said the chief,"thus make their escape through the eastern side of the ravine?"
60751May we open one of these doors?
60751May you not be taking too partial and unfair a view of the situation?
60751Mentega sama ikan?
60751Mercy?
60751Might she be a nonna after all?
60751Might we not wait a few minutes longer?
60751Might you not perhaps have dropped some hint to Mr. van Nerekool, or may be to your mother? 60751 Modify my report, Resident?"
60751More important do you mean to tell me, than of giving solemn testimony upon which may depend perhaps the life or death of a human being?
60751Moreover, he is not given to opium smoking, is he?
60751Most undoubtedly it is, madam; but what I wanted to ask is-- Has this case of smuggling been properly brought home to them?
60751Move? 60751 Mr. Langeveld, do you pay cash down?"
60751Mr. van Nerekool,said she;"I am not at all sure that I have a right to--""But my dear Miss Anna, why then did you send for me?
60751Muizenkop? 60751 Murowski the butterfly hunter?"
60751Murowski the snake- charmer?
60751My dear girl, what are you thinking about?
60751My poor friend, my poor friend,he muttered almost inaudibly;"but is this all?"
60751Nearly one o''clock,he muttered to himself, and then aloud he added:"Than Loa, is the horse ready saddled?"
60751Never?
60751News?
60751No doing anything with him, you say? 60751 No other alternative than-- what?"
60751No, I do n''t,replied Mr. Zuidhoorn,"what is the matter?"
60751No, I tell you-- how should I, baboe?
60751No, Nana; but why do you look so strange? 60751 No,"said she;"how should I?"
60751Not at all, my dear sir, for by writing thus, what do you in fact tell me, in so many words? 60751 Not over the sea then?"
60751Not? 60751 Now are you ready to start?"
60751Now did you ever hear such a girl?
60751Now do you recognise me?
60751Now is this breakfast- time I ask you? 60751 Now then,"she continued in her wrath,"tell me, you young monkey, where have you been?
60751Now think it well over-- is that your last word?
60751Now, Nana,she asked as she looked around,"where is our table and the table- linen?
60751Now, Ong Kwat, is not that just about how you managed it?
60751Now, gentlemen,said van Nerekool,"are you all furnished with cigars?
60751Now, is there any one else in my way? 60751 Now, it is our turn, will you kindly offer me your arm?"
60751Now, what is it?
60751Now,asked Grenits,"you will not be offended if I give you a bit of advice in your own interest and in the interest also of the missionary?"
60751Of course not, Matilda,replied Gesina,"of course not; money is not everything-- look at us now, are we not happy?"
60751Of course, most certainly I do; but what took place next?
60751Of course, of course-- the baboe of nonna Anna, eh Charles-- cela va sans dire?
60751Of sounding him?
60751Of the climate?
60751Oh ho,muttered her master to himself, and then turning to the girl again, he said, aloud,"Where did they lay hands on him?"
60751Oh so,said van Gulpendam, with a laugh,"the babah has come on business, has he?"
60751Oh tell me-- where is she?
60751Oh yes,said Beneden--"that is, I suppose, for our experiment, is it not?
60751Oh, I have no doubt you are quite right there,sighed Murowski,"but where on earth is Gombong?
60751Oh, Nana,cried the poor girl, ready again to burst into tears;"how can you ask that?"
60751Oh, come,said van Gulpendam scornfully,"do you think I am not up to all the dodges by which the law may be evaded?"
60751Oh, indeed,laughed van Gulpendam,"that is your tack is it?
60751Oh, yes, I know that; but-- a black chicken? 60751 Oh, yes, most certainly I do; but the question is for whom?"
60751Oh, yes, of course, I had quite forgotten; he is in for ten days, eh?
60751Oh, yes; but who is the happy man, babah?
60751Oh, you believe the girl''s story then?
60751Oh, you sly fox,whispered one with a nudge,"that is why you took me up so sharply just now?
60751Oh, you think so?
60751Oh, you think so?
60751Oh,said Laurentia, carelessly,"is that all?"
60751Oh,said he,"you intend to give us the sonata before the waltz?"
60751Perhaps the Kandjeng toean will now allow me to retire?
60751Perhaps the rice harvest has failed or has not, this season, produced as much as usual?
60751Possibly I might be, but what if the Dutch papers were to take up the cry?
60751Quite so,rejoined the other;"but what does that matter?
60751Repent? 60751 Resident,"said Verstork,"may I beg leave to inquire against what you have been warned?"
60751Secrets, Matilda?
60751Setrosmito, how is it possible?
60751Setrosmito,continued the president,"do you know why you have been brought here before us?"
60751Shall we go to the club, it is close by?
60751Shall we go?
60751Shall we hear it, sir, right down at the bottom?
60751She is ill then?
60751She would not allow--"And it is you then,continued Verstork,"who have so shamefully ill- treated her?"
60751Since this remedy then is not a secret one, will you tell me what it is?
60751So darkly did you say? 60751 So early as this?"
60751So that to- morrow morning there will be nothing to detain you?
60751So that,continued the Resident,"after the cure there will be no visible proofs of the treatment he has received?"
60751So that?
60751So-- that is your report is it? 60751 Soeka maniesan?"
60751Supposing,continued he,"that in spite of her parents, in spite of all that has occurred, I should be prepared to make her my wife?"
60751Sure of Meidema? 60751 Take it?"
60751Tell me, Anna,he continued, passionately,"tell me, do you feel some such love for me?
60751Tell me, babah,asked the Resident''s wife,"what may be the meaning of that scribble on those red rags?"
60751Tell me, can you understand?
60751Thank you, and on that one yonder?
60751Thanks; you will stay to dinner?
60751That I think is plain enough, gentlemen, is it not? 60751 That I would let no one know-- no one, do you understand me, Dalima?"
60751That bit of information does not seem to affect you very much?
60751That is a pretty good number I think-- is it not, Wedono?
60751That is all very well,said August van Beneden,"but where shall we find these quarters?"
60751That is the proper course to take, is it not?
60751That shriek I heard?
60751That was plain speaking enough,--was it not William? 60751 That woman?"
60751That''s a good many, babah!--if ten additional licenses were granted, then I understand you to say that you are prepared to go up to two millions?
60751The Chinese assessors and the head- djaksa have received similar communications-- so that--"So that what?
60751The boat then was large enough to hold those two, eh?
60751The daughter of Ngow Ming Than-- is she not? 60751 The day before yesterday I went to Buitenzorg-- yesterday I went on to Tjipannas--""And--?"
60751The inspector?
60751The lever of what did you say? 60751 The man who is dead?
60751The session?
60751The usher disappeared?
60751The whole sum?
60751The word on that one signifies:''Lantern of Heaven?''
60751Then those two ladies will be able to bear witness to that I suppose?
60751Then why did you not call Anna? 60751 Then why did you not have your breakfast before?"
60751Then you suppose Ardjan is still there?
60751Theodoor? 60751 There is no danger, I hope, doctor?"
60751There was therefore no stu-- stu-- what did you call it?
60751There? 60751 These things,"he continued,"are called in Javanese, I think, Kamadoog-- are they not, doctor?"
60751These were the men, I think, who, a few moments before could discover nothing?
60751They found it at the same time that they discovered Ardjan?
60751They have caught Ardjan, you say,interrupted van Gulpendam,"who have caught him?"
60751They, they, who are they?
60751Thirteen guilders,cried the auctioneer,"who bids more than thirteen?"
60751Three Europeans?
60751To Lim Ho? 60751 To come and take my hand here as usual?"
60751To fit it up?
60751To heave to? 60751 To look for me?
60751To what it has led me, Resident?
60751Touch it? 60751 Treason, do you call it?"
60751Twenty- five what?
60751Two hundred and fifty guilders? 60751 Vanished?"
60751Very well,said Anna, quietly,"then take this note to Mr. van Nerekool, you understand?"
60751Was I not right?
60751Was I right after all in keeping my word to Anna? 60751 Was it perhaps Kiem Ping Hin?"
60751Was not the''djoekoeng''upset when the pair of you tried to run away in her? 60751 We have a good long ride before us to get back to Banjoe Pahit,"remarked Theodoor Grenits,"and to- morrow morning it will be light very early, eh?"
60751Wedono, will you see to it that Mr. Mokesuep is called early to- morrow morning?
60751Well gentlemen,asked Grenits,"am I exaggerating?
60751Well then,continued the simple Javanese girl,"why be so cruel?"
60751Well what does the Council say, Theodoor?
60751Well, Charles,cried Verstork, as he flung the letter upon the table,"what do you think of that?"
60751Well, I do n''t know,replied van Gulpendam,"but might not the notes have got mixed up with the samples of silk purely by accident?
60751Well, Nana, how shall I tell you that? 60751 Well, and what happened then?"
60751Well, and where are they going to send you to?
60751Well, babah,asked the Resident,"in what manner can I assist you?"
60751Well, but what?
60751Well, gentlemen,cried the bluff but kind- hearted soldier as he caught sight of them,"have you had any luck?"
60751Well, that is a curious tale certainly; and now what about Ardjan-- did you leave him behind you at the Moeara Tjatjing?
60751Well, what is it?
60751Well, what of that?
60751Well, yes,continued Charles,"and kissing her; but should you perhaps think that we had purposely selected this spot, then--""Well, what then?"
60751Well,asked van Rheijn,"but must we not look upon that as the expression of a mere private opinion?
60751Well,said Charles,"and suppose that should happen?"
60751Well,said Grenits,"what does history say?"
60751Well,said Laurentia, in no mood to humour her husband,"do you call that so very quick?
60751Well,said Laurentia,"what then?"
60751Well,said Mr. Zuidhoorn,"you know, I suppose, that I have applied for leave of absence on account of my health, and that I am going to Holland?"
60751Well,she said at length, after having for a few moments stared at Dalima;"well, and what happened then?"
60751Well,stammered the coward, whose lips were still white with fear;"it is all right, is it not?"
60751Well-- and did you get it?
60751Well?
60751Well?
60751What I feel?
60751What I intend to do? 60751 What Karang Anjer in Bagelen?
60751What about?
60751What are we going to do there, Nana?
60751What are you frightened at?
60751What are you thinking about, Nana?
60751What brought you there?
60751What business had you at the Moeara? 60751 What business?"
60751What can have become of Edward van Rheijn?
60751What can have brought all this crowd of people together?
60751What can you mean?
60751What circumstances?
60751What colour was it, ma?
60751What company then?
60751What could the company make of them? 60751 What did I tell you?"
60751What did Theodoor say?
60751What did you hear?
60751What did you say?
60751What do you feel? 60751 What do you intend to do?"
60751What do you intend to do?
60751What do you mean by at last,she rejoined,"I suppose that is to be my good- morning?"
60751What do you mean, Nana?
60751What do you mean, Resident?
60751What do you mean-- do you take me for a quack- doctor?
60751What do you mean? 60751 What do you mean?"
60751What do you say?
60751What do you want?
60751What does that matter?
60751What else could the money have been meant for?
60751What had he to do with it?
60751What has become of our babahs?
60751What has he got to do with it? 60751 What have you got to do with her?"
60751What have you got to tell me?
60751What he came here for? 60751 What in the world has happened to you, Dalima?"
60751What in the world is the good of all that hocus- pocus?
60751What in the world is the matter with you, old fellow?
60751What in the world is the matter with you?
60751What induced you to go there?
60751What invitation?
60751What is a pity?
60751What is all this confusion about?
60751What is he saying?
60751What is that for?
60751What is that to me?
60751What is that, Resident?
60751What is the matter now, babah?
60751What is the matter? 60751 What is the matter?
60751What is the matter?
60751What is the use of my trying to guess?
60751What is your difficulty?
60751What is your name?
60751What kind of bitters is that?
60751What makes me think that?
60751What makes you look so serious then?
60751What makes you think that?
60751What may that be, Resident?
60751What mercy did you show poor Dalima and old Setrosmito? 60751 What money are you talking about?"
60751What money?
60751What must I do, Resident?
60751What must you do? 60751 What of that?"
60751What on earth can all this mean, Loerah?
60751What on earth may that be?
60751What ship?
60751What ten thousand guilders?
60751What then could it have been about to offer the money?
60751What then may be the cause of the distress you speak of, Radhen Adipattie?
60751What was it then?
60751What will the Steenvlaks say to this sudden change of plan?
60751What''s all this about?
60751What''s the matter, what''s up?
60751What''s up?
60751What, all night?
60751What, old Setrosmito? 60751 What,"fell in van Gulpendam, somewhat taken aback,"did the dessa folk see them as well as you?"
60751What? 60751 What?
60751What? 60751 What?
60751What? 60751 What?
60751What? 60751 What?
60751What? 60751 What?
60751What?
60751What?
60751When I do nothing more than lay my finger upon the wound?
60751When could I have done such a thing?
60751When is the contract to be renewed?
60751When that opium came ashore,said he,"did anyone happen to be present?"
60751Where are these samples?
60751Where are you going to?
60751Where are you running to, Nana?
60751Where can August van Beneden have got to?
60751Where can she be?
60751Where did they find the horrid stuff?
60751Where do you live?
60751Where have you come from?
60751Where have you sprung from?
60751Where is Dalima?
60751Where is Dalima?
60751Where is Grashuis?
60751Where is Leendert Grashuis?
60751Where is nonna Anna?
60751Where is the opium?
60751Where is the pain?
60751Where was the girl drowned?
60751Where were you born?
60751Where? 60751 Where?"
60751Which sessions?
60751Who I am? 60751 Who are they?"
60751Who are those with him?
60751Who gave that order?
60751Who is I?
60751Who is he?
60751Who is running Amokh?
60751Who is the buyer?
60751Who is there?
60751Who is there?
60751Who is there?
60751Who knows?
60751Who, do you say, found these things?
60751Whose evidence? 60751 Whose ship was that?"
60751Why are you lawyers,rejoined the other,"always fencing with scraps of Latin?
60751Why did you not tell me this at once?
60751Why do you look so strangely at me?
60751Why do you think so?
60751Why not touch it? 60751 Why not, pray?"
60751Why should I do so, Resident? 60751 Why should I have done so?
60751Why should I not be?
60751Why should I? 60751 Why should she?"
60751Why should we not both go together?
60751Why should we put it off?
60751Why so?
60751Why you, rather than anyone of us?
60751Why, Mr. Thomasz, have you taken leave of your senses?
60751Why, do n''t you know? 60751 Why, do n''t you know?"
60751Why, now your father and mother are dead--"What? 60751 Why, what was he doing there?"
60751Why,said Grenits,"I hope, Edward, you do not doubt my word?"
60751Why? 60751 Will you allow me?"
60751Will you bet me a rix- dollar that I do n''t manage to find some?
60751Will you make that promise, Dalima?
60751Will you then give me the right to call you Miss Anna, or, shorter still-- simply Anna-- dear, darling Anna?
60751Wo n''t hear of it?
60751Would it be indiscreet to ask what made our host bend his head so anxiously over his desk?
60751Would not Monday morning have done just as well?
60751Would the Kandjeng toean condescend to accept them at my hands?
60751Would you not like,said van Beneden,"just merely for the sake of experiment, to try opium smoking?
60751Would you,continued Anna,"would you have me deliberately widen the gap which is already growing between us?
60751Would you,he asked as he pointed to Ardjan,"leave this fellow here alone and unwatched?"
60751Wrong?
60751Yes, I am quite ready,answered his friend;"but how about horses?"
60751Yes, I sent him with it, where is it?
60751Yes, and Grenits, where is he? 60751 Yes, and to- day you promised you would let me know why--""Now tell me, Charles,"said Verstork,"is there any need for me to say anything more?
60751Yes, but babah, you know Mr. Meidema, do you not?
60751Yes, but tell me,she insisted,"from whom is it?"
60751Yes, but what do they mean?
60751Yes, he does-- don''t you like them?
60751Yes, njaa; but where is she?
60751Yes, yes,cried van Rheijn, full of curiosity,"we grant you that; but what important communication had he to make to you?"
60751Yes,cried a couple of others,"where has Mokesuep got to?"
60751Yes,said Matilda,"and to complete the comparison, could anyone be happier even in the Residence itself?
60751Yes,said she,"we must get out of this place; but, can you swim?
60751Yes,said van Nerekool;"what if he did?"
60751Yes,thought Dalima,"it is she;"and then she continued aloud:"She asked you no other question, ma?"
60751Yes-- and then?
60751Yes; but,continued he,"what did they talk about?"
60751You are going eh?
60751You are going to leave us?
60751You are not? 60751 You are quite right, Resident, nothing ever escapes your eagle eye; but yet--''il y a des accommodements avec le ciel,''and therefore--""But how?"
60751You are sure, there was nothing in the djoekoeng when you got into her? 60751 You are very late,"said van Nerekool--"have you been very busy?"
60751You are very mysterious, babah,said he,"have you come to bother me again about that confounded opium?"
60751You ask me what you have done? 60751 You ask me,"replied Meidema,"what I accuse you of?
60751You asked her how far Pembanan was from the dessas Sikaja and Pringtoetoel-- did you not?
60751You confess to having killed a bandoelan and wounded an officer?
60751You did not tell him what you were going to do?
60751You give me leave then to call you dear-- dearest Anna?
60751You have been here some time then?
60751You have, I presume,continued the Resident,"well weighed and thoroughly understood what I said?"
60751You here, Dalima,cried she;"where in the world have you been?
60751You know what has happened, mother?
60751You know, mamma, do you not? 60751 You mean to Lim Ho, the bridegroom?
60751You mean to tell me,cried van Gulpendam in amazement,"that the inspector has told you all that?"
60751You now pay twelve hundred thousand guilders for your monopoly, do you not? 60751 You question me and I am obliged to answer-- and further--""Well, what else?
60751You refuse then,continued Verstork coldly,"to furnish me with the explanations I require?"
60751You remember,he laughed,"how Than Khan and Liem King tumbled down from top to bottom?
60751You said two witnesses-- who is the other?
60751You spoke to her then, ma?
60751You think so, do you?
60751You think therefore--?
60751You thought me very ill?
60751You were at Kaligaweh?
60751You? 60751 You?
60751You?
60751Your bride? 60751 ''How can you suspect me of jesting, when I ask you whether you can surmise to what decision I am about to come with regard to your question?'' 60751 --Is that all?"
60751A rare feast for the boajas, eh?"
60751Above all things I wish to keep you here with me; but you must promise that you will not let anyone know where I am hiding-- will you promise that?"
60751After what my secretary told me?
60751Again I ask you, what proofs have we that this box was discovered under the pandan- mat of the couch in Setrosmito''s dwelling?
60751Am I not right, Charles?"
60751Am I not right, van Nerekool?"
60751And again, might not the girl honestly imagine that in bringing the lovers together she was promoting the happiness of both?
60751And did you get any good specimens?"
60751And drawing his daughter to him, he said to her, as he patted her smooth cheek,"I am right, Anna, am I not?
60751And how did he attempt to prove that charge?
60751And how then about the rice which you have just brought home?
60751And pray, may I be allowed to ask my proud and independent daughter what plans she may have formed for the future?
60751And then''high time to get away?''
60751And turning to his servant, he went on:"You carry out my orders to the letter; do you hear?
60751And why?
60751And yet we are all of us morally convinced that a gross outrage was perpetrated, but-- when shall we see justice dealt out fairly in India?"
60751And you Tilda?"
60751And you say that she has smuggled opium?"
60751And you, when you get to be head of a firm, will you give up all trade in spirits, and all the profits it brings in?"
60751And, may I add to that request, the prayer that you will kindly intercede on my behalf, with Mr. van Gulpendam?"
60751And-- pardon me the question-- have you in this particular case acted up to that principle?"
60751Anyone else?"
60751Anything to do with them eh?
60751Are these feelings to be accounted for by the obstacles which my love to Anna has encountered?
60751Are these the principles which animate our rulers?
60751Are you aware that Mrs. van Gulpendam asked me to violate my oath and my duty?''
60751Are you listening to me, Charles?"
60751Are you quite sure that you are not just a little too sanguine?"
60751Are you trying to make a fool of me?
60751As he entered the hut, he did not deign so much as to cast a look at Ardjan; but abruptly asked him:"What made you run away?"
60751As he stood there hesitating, van Gulpendam asked:"Do the landowners pay the labourers reasonably well?"
60751As soon as Liem King had made his report, he asked in a tone of assumed indifference:"Was the fellow alone when you came upon him?"
60751As soon as she was gone Laurentia in feverish haste and with heaving bosom turned to Dalima and said:"Well, what then?"
60751As van Gulpendam made his appearance in the pandoppo he was greeted with the words, somewhat sternly uttered:"What business has that pajoeng here?
60751At Gombong?"
60751At her last words however he sprang up from his chair, he took her hand and said:"A lonely life you say?
60751At length Grenits said:"Well, doctor, is my carcase in pretty good order?"
60751At length he spoke, turning to Than Khan and Liem King, and said:"Well, what have you to say to all that?"
60751At length the Chinaman despairing of success, and very angry at his failure, cried out in a rage:"Where are your children?"
60751At the sound the young girl gave a sudden start, she dropped her book and springing up from her seat,"Siapa ada?"
60751Auctioneer?"
60751Aye indeed; how was it all to end?
60751Band an opponent of opium?
60751But I ask you this one question:--Has the Government any right whatever to reckon upon the fulfilment of that duty?
60751But I need not ask, you look like a fresh- blown Devonshire rose, so charming, so--""Will you take tea or coffee?"
60751But all such reflections were roughly interrupted by Liem King, who asked him,"Where did you come from on so wild a night as this?"
60751But how do you know that, Theodoor?"
60751But is it a fact that I am an unpractical fellow, and one who will never make his way in the world?
60751But now for William; what does he write about?"
60751But now the opium?
60751But now the question was: could they hope to get over the distance between that mountain of water and the next one before it also would break?
60751But the sound had not quite passed away, when Grashuis, as if suddenly moved by some spring, raised himself upon his elbow:"Did you hear that?"
60751But what are we to do?
60751But what can there be in that telegram from the Hague, to put you out so?"
60751But what has that to do with it?"
60751But what may they have cost you altogether?"
60751But what objection can he have to me?"
60751But what of that?"
60751But what''s up now?"
60751But who could it be?
60751But who then are the consumers?
60751But you will ask perhaps:''How about Miss van Gulpendam?''
60751But, Resident, why all these questions?
60751But, are not industry and agriculture the very life- blood of a State?
60751But, just consider, how could you have undertaken that journey?
60751But, let me ask you, upon what grounds has the prosecution founded this most serious charge?
60751But, the question was, would she listen to her story, would she help her?
60751But, what to do with oneself at Gombong?
60751But, what would Babah Lim Yang Bing think of it?
60751But, why do I talk of exulting over his death?
60751But,"continued he,"can any of you tell me where the shots came from?"
60751But-- what can be the drift of all this?
60751But-- what is up with Anna?
60751But-- what to do now?
60751But--""But what?"
60751But--""Yes-- but what?"
60751By force or by cunning?
60751By whom?"
60751By- the- bye, did you receive the parcel I sent you?"
60751Can I do anything for you to help you on your journey back?"
60751Can it be some misanthropist, I thought, who is living there so far away from the haunts of men?
60751Can we not manage to avoid even the least of these misfortunes?"
60751Can you be quite sure that the five thousand guilders were concealed in that parcel of silk samples for the purpose of bribery?"
60751Can you make that out?"
60751Charles, Charles, what am I to believe?"
60751Come, speak up, will you?
60751Could he have expected more lenient treatment at the hands of the white men?
60751Could he venture to go on?
60751Could such a thing ever have happened at home?
60751Could you manage to get me a horse?"
60751Could you possibly suspect me of not doing my utmost to secure your happiness?"
60751Dalima''s father has, I suppose, been got rid of at least for a few weeks?"
60751Dalima, who was beginning to fear that Anna was really displeased, at length broke the silence and said:"You are not angry with me, Nana?"
60751Did Mrs. Steenvlak really not know what had become of Anna?
60751Did he repent of having thus honestly spoken his mind?
60751Did my eyes play me false altogether?
60751Did the young men there assembled pay any heed to this mysterious melody?
60751Did you ever see a Javanese so degrade himself?
60751Did you ever see a native act so meanly, even when pleading for his life?
60751Did you ever see anything more neatly put together?
60751Did you examine her?"
60751Did you not say just now, van Rheijn, that you also had an opium tale to tell?"
60751Did you not?"
60751Did you notice how cleverly all the witnesses who might have spoken in Dalima''s favour were got out of the way?
60751Did you partake of anything in the way of spirits?"
60751Did you pick her up also floating about?
60751Do n''t you remember Amy''s letter, when we had sent her our congratulations on her engagement?
60751Do n''t you remember what we saw in the den at Kaligaweh?"
60751Do n''t you see that the remnant of the herd will get clear away?
60751Do n''t you think so, dearest?"
60751Do n''t you think so?"
60751Do n''t you understand me, nènèh?
60751Do you ask what I intend to do?
60751Do you happen to remember it?"
60751Do you hear me?"
60751Do you hear?"
60751Do you know Miss van Gulpendam?"
60751Do you love me, dearest?
60751Do you love me, dearest?
60751Do you not approve of my plan?"
60751Do you really love Ardjan, and are you anxious to save him?"
60751Do you still ask me what you have done?
60751Do you think a pretty girl like Dalima is destined to be the bride of a Javanese dog like you?
60751Do you think that I would throw fresh difficulties in her way?
60751Do you think van Kempen in the Hague could turn out anything better than that?"
60751Do you understand me, Mr. van Nerekool?
60751Does not the Company trade in gin?
60751Does not your own firm deal in alcohol?
60751Does the wind sit in that quarter?
60751During all these festive rites, did Lim Ho bestow even one passing thought upon his victim, baboe Dalima?
60751Eh?"
60751Eh?"
60751Eh?"
60751Etait- ce donc un ange, une femme, Qui venait d''embraser mon âme?
60751Etait- ce donc un ange, une femme, Qui venait d''embraser mon âme?
60751For, whom can I protect out here in Atjeh?
60751Grenits, however, at once broke in and said:"What?
60751Grenits?"
60751Had Mr. van Gulpendam ever, thought she, thus declared his love to her-- had he ever spoken of her in such terms?
60751Has anything else happened then?"
60751Has he given you any hint to that effect?"
60751Has it not neglected, in the most shameful manner, its duty towards that army?
60751Has it then come to this that we are to be deprived of every means of stemming the national evil?"
60751Have the members refused to sit?
60751Have they drowned her, then?"
60751Have they had an offer?
60751Have you any objection?"
60751Have you any others?"
60751Have you cast him out of your heart?"
60751Have you not often felt the same aversion-- tell me, mother dear?"
60751Have you noticed that cock over the altar yonder?"
60751Have you then no money at all?"
60751He gave her one penetrating look:"You here yet?"
60751He put his hands on his wife''s shoulders and steadily looking her in the face he said cheerily:"I say, mammy dear-- is there any news?"
60751How are the cards serving you this evening?
60751How can my simple words have moved you so?
60751How can that possibly be?"
60751How can you gentlemen like that nasty smoke?"
60751How can you possibly dare to undertake such a journey, Dalima?"
60751How could a man like William Verstork have ever admitted such a fellow into his company?
60751How could they have had the audacity of daring to disregard the express command of the Mighty Lord?
60751How did Dalima happen to be on the fatal spot at that early hour?
60751How do they manage to keep body and soul together?
60751How far is it from here to Karang Anjer, captain?"
60751How is it possible that amid such surroundings Anna has remained spotless and pure?
60751How is it you are not on board of her?"
60751How is it,"she continued,"that you took so coolly what I just now told you about Anna?
60751How long was that peaceful life to last--?
60751How many more do you want?"
60751How much opium have you there?"
60751How shall we find out?"
60751How then did Dalima get to the spot where now we find her, at so great a distance from Kaligaweh, and what was the object of her journey?
60751How will all this end?"
60751How would you like to be out on such a night as this?"
60751How?
60751How?
60751I am quite ready to admit that your quotation is accurate; but was the Council properly informed when it gave that opinion?"
60751I am right, am I not?"
60751I am waiting for you-- what is your answer?"
60751I ask you again: is such conduct in any way excusable, while the girl''s parents are left in ignorance of this passion?"
60751I ask, why were not these papers laid before us?
60751I fancy, Anna,"she continued,"I fancy I have some right to your confidence, have I not?"
60751I know you keep a pretty good galley, do you accept my offer?"
60751I may call you so, may I not?"
60751I often ask myself how can such a child have sprung from such parents?
60751I said, however, as quietly as I could,''Well, doctor, is there any particular spot to which you advise me to go?''
60751I say, Verstork, how in the world did you manage to get hold of such a sneak as that?"
60751I say, mother, do you think that jacket is worth patching up?"
60751I started and--""Does toean van Nerekool know of all this?"
60751I suppose that even on Saturday last you knew that Resident van Gulpendam was not at all well disposed towards me?"
60751I take it then, Anna, that you absolutely and finally refuse to accede to your mother''s suggestion?"
60751I think I am right there?''
60751I think I am right, Charles?"
60751I will tell you further, that in her despair, the poor girl has told me everything-- you understand me, do you not, when I say everything?
60751I, madam?"
60751If I had to choose, I would--""And will not Mrs. Meidema make her choice?"
60751If he does not wish to play what does the booby want to come here for at all, I wonder?"
60751If you please, Miss Anna, may I ask you for a cup of tea?"
60751In that case with what intention did you put that question to me?''
60751In that costume?"
60751In the face of what we have heard and seen can anyone deny or doubt that opium lies as a curse upon our poor Indian possessions?"
60751In these numberless butterflies were fluttering about; but, will you believe me?
60751In what manner, then, are those places filled?
60751Is he with you here?"
60751Is it a mere friendly feeling towards a pretty and accomplished child, or is it perhaps love which is beginning to nestle in my heart?
60751Is not that true?
60751Is she in India?"
60751Is that a bargain?"
60751Is that the question, Resident?
60751Is that the right word do you think?"
60751Is that then the reason why you all look so solemn?
60751Is that true or not, babah?"
60751Is that why you have come all the way from Santjoemeh?
60751Is that, may I ask, a secret remedy?"
60751Is there anything in that letter about butterflies?"
60751Is there anything wrong with her?"
60751Is there anything wrong?
60751It was a sore disappointment; the stall- keepers were ready to sell, but where was the money to come from?
60751It was not opium-- what was it then?"
60751It was so strange, was it not?
60751It was, however, my duty to investigate the matter--""And?"
60751Just ask yourself that question?"
60751Just fancy, ladies,"he continued, turning to the others,"a comical clerk, who ever heard of such a thing?"
60751Just smell it, Kandjeng toean, is it not delicious?"
60751Just think-- what if they dismissed me from the service altogether?"
60751Let me see, which was it?
60751May not our wild boars, if there are any at all in this ravine, have got away by some other road?"
60751Meanwhile what had been going on inside?
60751Meanwhile, what had befallen Dalima that she thus managed to come up at the right moment of time to rescue Ardjan from compulsory exile?
60751Meidema?"
60751Meidema?"
60751Meidema?"
60751Might she perhaps have mentioned to him only part of the bribe she had received, just to see how he would take it?
60751Might she perhaps have some suspicion that Dalima had been sent on her errand by van Nerekool?
60751Might the pursuit have been given up?
60751Might they have missed the road and gone off on some wrong track?
60751Moreover--""What else?"
60751Murowski the Pole?"
60751Must they leave van Nerekool to perish without an effort?
60751Must they then give up all hope?
60751My ultimatum, that is what they call the last word before a declaration of war, do n''t they, colonel?"
60751No sooner had the creaking door given admittance to the woman than he called out sharply to her:"Where have you been all this time?
60751No, I can not guess-- do tell me, babah?"
60751No?
60751No?"
60751Not stay with you?
60751Nothing can come to it-- unless--""Yes, unless what?"
60751Now I ask you, what am I to think of the vaunted purity of your love?
60751Now I think I am coming to it-- now a light dawns in upon me; and the next case?
60751Now could you give a guess at the price of one of those copper lanterns?"
60751Now do you begin to see why all our hospitals are overcrowded?
60751Now pray let me know, whose evidence may you have heard?"
60751Now that is agreed upon, eh?"
60751Now we were in hopes that we might have met Mr. van Nerekool half way in this matter-- But--""But-- what mamma?
60751Now what do you think of that?
60751Now what else is there?
60751Now will you allow me to see your parents to- morrow and lay before them my formal request for your hand?"
60751Now would you like to know what I have put down in my log, eh?''
60751Now, Mr. Meidema, will you allow me to give you a piece of good advice?"
60751Now, are you really and seriously in love with her?''
60751Now, how can the native be induced, for such utterly inadequate pay, to face this perpetual and deadly risk?
60751Now, how on earth did he manage to get here in that''djoekoeng?''
60751Now, should that happen-- why then all may be well-- You understand me, Laurie, do n''t you?
60751Now, the question is, how can such persons manage to live at all in even the most frugal manner?
60751Now, the question was: where were they to look for Resident van Gulpendam?
60751Now, what is the most serious obstacle?
60751Now, what was I to do?
60751Oh, I beg and pray you, have pity upon me and deliver me from this fearful suspense?"
60751Oh, that cursed Javanese, he threatened me with his kris, did he?
60751On the very morning when I set out with Grenits--""With Grenits?"
60751One day, as they were thus merrily talking, Anna said to her friend:"What if it were the Kjahi who gave us that fright the other day?"
60751One of the very last to give way was Laurentia--"who had a right to interfere with her-- the Resident''s wife?
60751Ought we not rather to find fault with the Government which countenances such abuses?"
60751Partly carried out you said?"
60751Perhaps you take some special interest in the man?"
60751Presently van Nerekool said to Verstork:"Are we not running the risk of hitting some of the men in the rear?"
60751Quite impossible; is it not, Loerah?"
60751Reijnaals-- the son- in- law of the member of the Indian Council?"
60751Said Grashuis:"What untold misery does that detestable opium- policy bring upon this, in other respects, so richly blessed island?
60751Separately?
60751Shall I be able to purge him of that accusation as I know that I have cleared him of the former?
60751Shall I mention these names which are even now on every lip?
60751She jumped up,"May I light it for you, father?"
60751She surely must be aware that she can not quarter herself for an indefinite period of time upon the Steenvlaks?"
60751Should you not rather cast the blame upon me?
60751So I took it for granted that you would be much too busy to--""Do what, madam?"
60751Soon the whole booth was full of men blindly intent upon tempting fortune, while outside the cymbal resounded, and the voices of the actresses(?)
60751Speak, I am prepared to hear what explanation you have to offer for conduct so insubordinate?
60751Starting up Verstork sat up and cried:"Who is there?"
60751Steenvlak?"
60751Such scum as that must be severely dealt with-- do you hear?"
60751Tell me who are you?"
60751Tell me, dearest Anna, may I hope?"
60751Tell me, dearest Anna, tell me, may I hope for some return of my love?"
60751Tell me, have we Dutch any feeling at all for our fellow- creatures?
60751Tell me, pray, what condition did you propose to van Nerekool?"
60751That gadabout has come home at last, has she?"
60751That is a settled question, is it not?"
60751That is agreed upon, is it not?"
60751That is it-- is it not?"
60751That is natural enough; but what I want to know is how you managed to get the native chiefs on your side?"
60751That is the question I would ask you?"
60751That week is up to- day-- is it not?"
60751That will be a step for you, will it not?"
60751The girl stopped at once:"Worse than that?"
60751The inspector tore it open, and, in his excitement he cried,"Where is it?"
60751The native population?
60751The opium?
60751The question you now ask me is this:''To whom do you intend this grave censure to apply?''
60751The rice, of course, how was it that they had never thought of that?
60751The world might, you know-- But no, you love my daughter do you not?"
60751Then a hoarse cry escaped from her lips,"My God, my God,"she sobbed,"has it come to this?
60751Then comes the question, where shall I be sent to?
60751Then how did it come about?"
60751There was but one of the little party who ventured to ask:"Is it quite safe, do you think?"
60751There, Nana?"
60751There?"
60751They must have cost a pretty penny I should think?"
60751This case will be an interesting one, I think?"
60751Thomasz?"
60751Thomasz?"
60751Thomasz?"
60751Thomasz?"
60751Thomasz?"
60751Thomasz?"
60751Thomasz?"
60751To the daughter of that rich old Chinaman-- is it not?"
60751To- morrow you mean to sail in the Emirne, eh?
60751Together?
60751Van Nerekool made an impatient gesture as one who would say:''What is that to me?''
60751Verstork?"
60751Was I forbidden any longer to attempt the rescue of the infatuated wretches around me?
60751Was I now to desist?
60751Was it a kind of dread of being alone for the first time with him whom she loved, and to whom she had just now spoken her faithful and trustful"yes?"
60751Was it a woman''s hand at all?
60751Was it all a mere delusion?
60751Was it natural modesty?
60751Was it the hope which began to dawn within me, or had a reaction already set in?
60751Was it the light in my eyes?
60751Was that the reward for the many years of anxious work which he had bestowed upon his office?
60751Was that then the impression which his long and conscientious services had made upon his superiors at head- quarters?
60751Well, never mind, we will come and look you up now and then-- won''t we, gentlemen?"
60751What are you driving at now?"
60751What are you talking about?
60751What are your orders?"
60751What can it all mean?"
60751What can you expect from such people--?
60751What could I do?
60751What did he gain by it?
60751What did she give you?"
60751What do you say?"
60751What do you taste?"
60751What has become of our merry Theodoor?"
60751What has that booby come on board for I wonder?"
60751What if that high and mighty one were to take up the cause of his servant?
60751What if they should take it up?
60751What in the world about?"
60751What in the world are you doing here?"
60751What in the world is he doing here?"
60751What is it?"
60751What is the matter?"
60751What mercy did you show to me and to my old father?
60751What might be said at Batavia should it be suspected that he felt the slightest distrust or fear?
60751What must be your answer?
60751What news may she have to tell me?"
60751What reason had they for flinging about these suspicions?
60751What right has he to offer my wife and daughters presents of five thousand guilders?"
60751What shall I say in excuse of my indiscretion?
60751What then had been his fate?
60751What was I to do?
60751What was it you saw, Theodoor?"
60751What was the use of troubling you to no purpose?"
60751What will be the end of it all?
60751What will mamma say?"
60751What worse misfortunes can overtake me?
60751What would Santjoemeh be without its chronique scandaleuse?"
60751What would be the use of them?"
60751What would you think of me if I were to take back my report?
60751What, have you been in his power?"
60751What, then-- why, then?
60751What?
60751What?
60751What?
60751When all were seated and the fragrant Manillas were lighted, he continued:"Gentlemen, what do you say to a glass of beer?"
60751When did you last partake of food?"
60751When the girl had come close to the hut, she asked again:"What is the matter?
60751Whenever did a white man keep his promise to us Javanese?
60751Where can she be?
60751Where can she have got to?"
60751Where can you have got to, my child?"
60751Where did that take place?
60751Where have you come from?"
60751Where in the world did you get that from?
60751Where is the rest of the money?"
60751Where might the dear girl be now?
60751Where was now the pleasant little cottage with its neat hedge of golden- yellow bamboo and its clean dark- brown roof of thatch made of leaves?
60751Who are the people that bring this so- called profit to our national chest?
60751Who first discovered them?
60751Who is she?"
60751Who pays that lawyer?"
60751Who will bid for them?
60751Who would be so mad as to declare war against you?
60751Who would have protected my child if I had not done so?
60751Whom else did you examine?"
60751Whose order is that?"
60751Why I held--""Will Mr. van Nerekool take tea or coffee?"
60751Why do you give me that advice?"
60751Why not?"
60751Why should I do so?
60751Why should there be no joy for you in this life?
60751Why, do n''t you know-- he is in the lock- up?"
60751Why?
60751Will anyone bid higher?
60751Will the Kandjeng toean do me the favour of having a look at it?"
60751Will this circumstance be of any use to me at the trial?
60751Will you come with me?
60751Will you please try to recall our conversation on the very evening of the discovery?"
60751William Verstork shook his head doubtfully at this communication,"Is there any truth in all that?"
60751William, my dear friend, you recollect our conversation of last Saturday night at Santjoemeh?"
60751With a loud scream she made an effort to start up,"You, you here?"
60751With what result who could tell?
60751Wonosobo, as you probably know, is 73 miles from Karang Anjer; but what were they in my eyes?
60751Would not the testimony of all the bandoelans, the opium- hunters, the opium- den keepers,''et hoc genus omne,''much rather lie open to suspicion?
60751Would she have to give up all hope of entangling that young man if he could be made to despair of ever obtaining Anna''s hand?
60751Would the Kandjeng toean ever forgive them for it?
60751Would they ever have arisen in my breast if the course of my love, like that of so many of my fellow- men, had run smoothly along?
60751Yes or no?"
60751Yes, he has disappeared-- where can he have got to?"
60751Yes-- but-- might it not have been her breathing somewhat quickened by the exertion of dancing?
60751Yes?
60751You ask what you have done?
60751You ask who are they?
60751You can all understand that-- can you not?"
60751You had an interview yesterday evening with my wife, had you not?''
60751You have heard of the story of Lim Ho and the pretty baboe Dalima?"
60751You have understood me, Wedono, have you not?"
60751You heard the head- djaksa''s prosecution?
60751You knew well enough, did you not, that I wanted the girl?
60751You know Ludovic''s charming duet, do you not?"
60751You know the laws of the Company, do you not?
60751You know, I suppose, where it came from?"
60751You may ask perhaps why make that distinction between the two cases?
60751You must be tired out, and I do n''t suppose you care to return to your hut to- night?
60751You remember in what manner I received your communication last week?"
60751You remember what he said, do you not?
60751You said clause 92?"
60751You tell me that you have been holding an inquiry-- do you not?
60751You will allow that I think?"
60751You will ask then, perhaps, how can people be found to venture on so hazardous an undertaking?
60751You will be there, I presume?"
60751about Anna, you know, and van Nerekool?"
60751adjourned?
60751again cried Singomengolo,"Dalima, where are you hurrying to?"
60751and what did you say to that?"
60751asked Anna,"Theodoor Grenits?
60751asked Charles, somewhat hastily,"what do you mean?
60751asked Dalima in pitying accents,"you, the daughter of a kandjeng toean Resident?"
60751asked another,"Charles van Nerekool going away-- what in the world is that for?"
60751asked the officer, quite surprised,"what do you mean?
60751asked van Nerekool,"what do you mean?"
60751began the auctioneer,"who will make a bid for them?"
60751but I mean before you went to prison?"
60751but what can one expect from a wretched speculator in opium?
60751by Ardjan?"
60751can all this be justly put to the account of my successor?
60751can one expect as much from all the foreigners, which have been shipped out hither?
60751continued Anna,"did he see you?"
60751continued Laurentia,"and what are those blessings?"
60751continued Liem King;"how about her?
60751could she be guilty of smuggling opium?"
60751cried Anna in the greatest excitement;"not love him?
60751cried Anna now really frightened,"Lim Ho?
60751cried Anna, in dismay,"who was he?"
60751cried Anna,"what might that be?"
60751cried Dalima beside herself with terror,"what are you about?"
60751cried Dalima breathless with excitement:"are you sure of that?"
60751cried Grenits in surprise;"have you an outfitting store here in this out- of- the- way place?"
60751cried Grenits,"did ever man hear such an argument as that?
60751cried Meidema, utterly taken aback,"what on earth can the fellow mean?"
60751cried Mrs. van Gulpendam scornfully,"by whom, pray?"
60751cried Than Khan as he roughly tore the veil from the girl''s face,"what have we here?
60751cried Verstork,"what has he got to do with all this?"
60751cried Zuidhoorn,"is that the case with me?"
60751cried one of them,"what to do now?"
60751cried one,"still at it?"
60751cried the Chinaman,"may I beg the Kandjeng toean to accept that little sample as an offering to the njonja?"
60751cried the auctioneer,"Who bids higher?
60751cried the baboe,"how so?
60751cried the echo,"who bids higher?"
60751cried van Gulpendam,"and who are you that you dare to prate about justice, even while you are planning sedition and preparing for murder?
60751cried van Nerekool--"Do not be in a hurry!--And what if meanwhile she should again disappear?"
60751cried van Rheijn somewhat contemptuously,"what does a merchant know about such things?
60751cried van Rheijn,"and then?"
60751does he want the thing to fail altogether?"
60751eh?"
60751exclaimed Dalima, folding her hands in sorrowful wonder,"you, the child of a kandjeng toean?"
60751exclaimed Grenits, sarcastically,"do n''t you think it is about time to cry''Shut up?''"
60751exclaimed Henriette with a laugh,"do you call that so very serious a matter?"
60751exclaimed Laurentia,"the lover of your baboe?"
60751exclaimed van Gulpendam,"do you think I am afraid of burning my hands in cold water?"
60751exclaimed van Nerekool,"and what--?"
60751exclaimed van Nerekool,"how can you bring yourself to suspect William Verstork of illicit traffic?"
60751exclaimed van Rheijn contemptuously,"they say!--and pray who are they?"
60751exclaimed van Rheijn,"with your''dirty source of profit?''
60751eyes?"
60751father and mother dead?"
60751for the opium contract?"
60751has that slut come in again?"
60751he continued, after a few puffs at his pipe,"by cunning?
60751he continued,"what have we here?"
60751he cried,"Grenits, do you hear me; tell me, do you hear me?"
60751he exclaimed,"what have we here?"
60751how could I?
60751inquired Anna,"what place may that be?"
60751interrupted van Gulpendam,"they managed to get one in tow at last?"
60751is that his Excellency''s opinion?"
60751just at this time, when there is so much work on hand?"
60751mercy on such brutes as you?"
60751need I tell you who are the men that thus defraud the revenue?
60751no; Mr. van Nerekool,"said she,"I do not mean that; but will this wretched business compromise him in any way?"
60751not many weeks ago he promised to help me in saving the lover of my baboe and would he now--?"
60751of Chinamen?"
60751of what kind?"
60751on that side?"
60751repeated Mr. Zuidhoorn, surprised in his turn,"is there anything very remarkable about it?"
60751retorted van Rheijn,"does not every one pray for his daily bread?
60751said Meidema, sarcastically,"I suppose you came to offer silk dresses to the njonja Resident?
60751said Mrs. Meidema very coolly,"and who is the young lady?"
60751said she at last amidst the sobs which convulsively shook her entire frame,"can it be true?
60751said the Resident;"and what may be the cause of this sad state of things, Radhen Adipattie?"
60751said the crafty woman,"and what, pray, may be the value of the things?"
60751said van Gulpendam,"what do you women know about business?"
60751said van Nerekool,"where in the world must I get all these things from?
60751shall I take you to your seat?"
60751she asked,"tell me, is he dead?"
60751shouted Lim Ho turning to Ardjan;"do you know what has become of her?"
60751the Opium farmer?"
60751the fellow is right after all!--that''s where the coast lies, is it?
60751unfettered?"
60751was the question of all of them as soon as they had made inquiries after their friend''s health,"well?"
60751what for?"
60751what has become of them?
60751what has he to do with it?"
60751what might that be?"
60751what, to the son of the opium farmer?"
60751where is Mokesuep?"
60751where is that?"
60751where must all this end?
60751whispered the major in a warning voice,"she is standing just there talking to the young judge; what can she have to say to him?"
60751who is I?"
60751why not?"
60751why?"
60751why?"
60751with that''djoekoeng?''"
60751would you take that scoundrel''s word?"
60751you wish me--?"
