23371Where do you go first?

23371Why d''you think so?
23371Why did you not shoot it, professor?
23371Why not bring this man who claims to be her father_ here_?

23371Why not?
23371Why not?
23371Why should I''pologise?
23371Why so? 23371 Why you not look out?"
23371Why!--what-- how beautiful!--but-- but-- what do you mean?
23371Why, Verkimier, what are you after?
23371Why, do n''t your flossiphers say dat black am better dan white for''tractin''heat, an''ai n''t our skins black? 23371 Why, what''s the matter, Moses?"
23371Will it come again soon?
23371Will ye throw us a rope?
23371Winnie,said Nigel when they were alone,"does n''t it feel awesome and strange to be standing here in such intense darkness?"
23371Wo n''t you tell us what you intend to do, professor?
23371Would it be presumptuous if I were to ask why it is that this pirate had such bitter enmity against you?
23371Would n''t you like a trip in my brig to Anjer, my dear girl?
23371Yes-- well?
23371You don''want nuffin''more to- night, I s''pose?
23371You draw landscape also, I doubt not?
23371You enjoy this sort of thing?
23371You have heard of the saying, no doubt, that` all things are possible to well- directed labour?''
23371You knew it?
23371Your doubting me, father, does not correspond with your lately expressed opinion of my seamanship; does it?
23371All eyes were turned at once on Nigel, some boldly, others with a shy inquiring look, as though to say,"Can_ you_ tell stories?"
23371Am I not a first mate with a handsome salary?"
23371An''who is your frond?"
23371And what of Moses''opinion of the new home?
23371And who has been your other teacher?"
23371And why do you fear him?"
23371And-- and when may I start?"
23371Are you much hurt?"
23371Are you prepared?"
23371Are you there, boys?"
23371Besides, am I not your hired servant?"
23371Besides, is it not unkind to such hospitable people to bolt off after you''ve got all that you want out of them?"
23371But are you certain there will be another explosion?"
23371But how dare you, sir, venture to think of marryin''on nothin''?"
23371But why you call me Kathleen just now?"
23371But, excuse me-- v''ere did you come from, and vy do you come?
23371But, will you explain how I am to make sure of Winnie''s state of mind without asking her about it?"
23371But-- really-- are we to start at daylight?"
23371Can you keep a secret, Moses?"
23371Could reasoning be clearer or more conclusive?
23371D''ee feel_ that_?"
23371D''ye want a lift to- day?"
23371Do I not hear somet''ing?"
23371Do n''t you needlessly run considerable risk?"
23371Do''ee want to be smothered, roasted, and blown up?"
23371Do_ you_ know, Moses?"
23371Does he not run a very great risk of being discovered?"
23371Does n''t it strike you so?"
23371Does you really t''ink I would say or do any mortal t''ing w''atsumiver as would injure_ my_ massa?"
23371Has anything happened?"
23371Has not its owner a good bank account in England?
23371Have you ever been in England?"
23371Have you had breakfast?"
23371Have you observed these two strong ropes running all round our gunwale, and the bridles across with ring- bolts in them?"
23371Have you tasted zee Durian?"
23371Have you, Moses?"
23371He come in vis a moss--""A what?"
23371He felt inclined to add:"But why all this moving about?"
23371How came it to grow in this way?"
23371How did I get here?
23371How do you catch the turtle?
23371How''s''er head?"
23371How-- how''s old mother Morris?"
23371I have longed to visit Sumatra, ant vat better fronds could I go viz zan yourselfs?"
23371I have preparations to make, however, and I have no doubt you wo n''t object to remain till all is ready for a start?"
23371If you say it is, how are we to account for love at first sight?
23371Is it not so?"
23371Is not zat vonderful?"
23371Is there a bulkhead between it and_ your_ heels?"
23371Is there danger?"
23371It''s a considerable length to get, that, is n''t it?
23371It''s quite clear that she do n''t know what danger means-- and why should she?
23371May I ask what that service is to be, and where you think of going to?"
23371May I look now at what you have done?"
23371Moses, what are you talking to over there?"
23371Not hurt much, I hope?"
23371Now the thing is ridiculous-- impossible-- for how can I know your opinion on any subject until I have asked you?"
23371Now, Moses, are you ready?"
23371Now, do you see the little island away there to the nor''-west?"
23371Of course you understand how to manage sails of every kind?"
23371Old Holbein?"
23371Our Maker has so ordained it as well as stated it, for is it not written,"The sleep of the labouring man is sweet"?
23371Shall I have to fetch any provisions with me for the voyage?"
23371Should I reveal my suspicions to Van der Kemp?"
23371There is a friend there who has just told me he met you on the Cocos- Keeling Island, Nigel Roy;--you start, Winnie?"
23371There was an indication of a tendency to flight on the part of the natives, but Nigel''s asking"Where_ are_ you?"
23371Vat is zat?
23371Vat say you, Van der Kemp?"
23371Vy you come here joost now?"

23371What has happened?"
23371What say you, Nigel?"
23371What would you say to charter a steamer and have a grand excursion to the volcano?"
23371Where are my comrades-- Nigel and the negro?"
23371Where did you pick him?
23371Where is she?"
23371Who has not experienced this, and felt himself to be a very hero of self- denial in the circumstances?
23371Why do ye ask?"
23371Why not?
23371Why, therefore, did he feel uncomfortable?
23371Why?"
23371Will my friend go by that?"
23371Wo n''t you go in, Miss Winnie?"
23371You and the hermit are goin''off to Krakatoa to- day, I suppose?"
23371You are not hurt, I hope-- are you?"
23371You hear?"
23371You know all about the brig, an''what a deal o''repair she''s got to undergo?"

23371echoed the youth,"are some of them wrong ones?"

23371laughed Moses, in guttural tones,"you soon see dat-- I''spose it time for me to get out de grub, massa?"
23371man, what d''ye mean?"
23371replied the negro, looking up with a somewhat stern frown and a pout of his thick lips, as much as to say--"Who are_ you_?"
23371said Nigel;"but how do you manage when the mountain comes between you and the sun, as I see it can not fail to do during some part of the day?"

15348But how,he asked,"am I to get zere ven ve reach zee sea- coast?
15348But how-- how-- why?
15348But is it wise in you to stay if you think an explosion so likely? 15348 But is not the cargo of the said ship safe in Batavia?
15348But seriously, Moses,he continued;"what do you think I should do?
15348But should we not hear them coming a long way off?
15348But what good will writing to my father do?
15348But what if I do n''t want to take service?
15348But what if Rakata itself should become active?
15348But what of the poor little girl?
15348But why did you go to live in such a strange place, dear father?
15348But why do you call her_ poor_ Kathy? 15348 But why do you love him, Moses?"
15348But-- where?
15348Can you guess what is the matter with him?
15348Can you run aft, Winnie?
15348Can you write shorthand?
15348Could n''t we lower a boat?
15348D''you think our old harbour will be available, Moses?
15348Did n''t I say so?
15348Did they_ all_ go in one direction?
15348Did you ever, during your search,asked Nigel slowly,"visit the Cocos- Keeling Islands?"
15348Do it always rain ashes here?
15348Do it? 15348 Do you alvays sneeze like zat?"
15348Do you expect''em back soon, sir?
15348Do you feel disposed for bed?
15348Do you hear anything?
15348Do you hear?
15348Do you know what makes him so sad?
15348Do you know, Moses, what business your master is going about?
15348Do you mean that we shall sleep in the canoe?
15348Do you not remember that my mother was ill when you spent a night in our hut, and my little sister was dying? 15348 Do you see that brass thing in front of you?"
15348Do you then think there is a possibility of an outbreak at some future period?
15348Do you think it safe to venture to visit your cave?
15348Do you think the people would object to my getting up into a tree with my rifle and watching beside the grave part of the night?
15348Do you think this is an attempt to deceive us?
15348Enchoy it? 15348 Had we not better run for the nearest land?"
15348Hallo?
15348Has he, then, done you such foul wrong?
15348Has she ever spoken to_ you_?
15348Have you ever travelled in the interior of the larger islands?
15348Have you never seen or heard of your daughter since?
15348Have you not told me that this is the first time for about two hundred years that Krakatoa has broken out in active eruption?
15348Have you reason to think he would take your life if he could?
15348How comes it,he said,"that you are so much interested in me?
15348How d''ee know_ she_ will wait?
15348How did you escape?
15348How much time have you to spare?
15348How so?
15348How!--Do you get them to tow you?
15348How? 15348 I suppose the larger islands are densely wooded?"
15348I suppose you have plenty of other kinds of food besides this?
15348I suppose,he said,"that there is no fear of the Dyaks of the village being unable to beat off the pirates now that they have been warned?"
15348I''n''t it awrful?
15348If the volcano seems quieting down,said Nigel to his host,"shall you start to- morrow?"
15348If you tumbles a t''ousand feet into de water how much t''ink you will be lef to pick up?
15348Indeed? 15348 Is Baderoon the enemy whom you saw on the islet on our first night out?"
15348Is Winnie going?
15348Is he harsh, then?
15348Is he not apt to be suffocated?
15348Is he so very bitter against you?
15348Is he then so fierce?
15348Is it daylight yet?
15348Is it far?
15348Is it often as dark as this in the daytime, an''is the sun usually green?
15348Is n''t dat enuff?
15348Is n''t you a goin''to take nuffin''wid you? 15348 Is that all?"
15348Is that the lad Baso I see down there with the crew of the prau?
15348Is that what he is doing?
15348Is this then the craft in which you intend to voyage?
15348Is, then, the orang- utan so powerful and savage?
15348Is-- is-- Van der Kemp safe?
15348Look''ere now, whitey,returned Moses,"what you take me for?"
15348May I ask, sir, what sort of cargo you expect there?
15348May I venture to ask for a fuller account of the injury he did you?
15348May not the cause be presentiment?
15348Mr. Moor,said the captain somewhat excitedly, as he reached the deck of his vessel,"are all the men aboard?"
15348Need I say,continued the hermit,"that revenge burned fiercely in my breast from that day forward?
15348Nigel,said the captain, in a tone and with a look that were meant to imply intense solemnity,"have you ever spoken to her about love?"
15348Not dead?
15348Not in years,he returned;"but old,_ very_ old in experience, and-- stay, what was it that you were asking about?
15348Not widout arms?
15348Now, Moses, are you ready?
15348Now, Moses; what d''ye think of all that?
15348Now, are you ready?
15348Now, boy,said the captain when their host had gone,"what''ll''ee do?
15348Of course you have agreed?
15348Passionate?
15348Risk what? 15348 Seen who?"
15348Shall I light de lamp?
15348Shall we have a stormy night, think you?
15348Shall we manage it, Moses?
15348Strong?
15348Surely you''re not afraid of his giving you a licking, Moses?
15348The Keeling Islands?
15348The cone from which I observed smoke rising?
15348The gasometer?
15348The right hole?
15348Then that is the girl who is now here?
15348Then you have resided here for some time?
15348Then you wo n''t arrive as a stranger?
15348Then, may I call you Kathleen?
15348Vare? 15348 Vat must ve do_ now_?"
15348Vat shall I do? 15348 Vat you mean by zat?"
15348Vat_ shall_ I do?
15348Vere? 15348 Vy did I not shot it?"
15348Well now, what do you propose to do, as you refuse to leave me?
15348Well, I do n''t see much use ob two, but which does you like to be called by-- Nadgel or Roy?
15348Well, now,continued the captain,"what about Black Sam?"
15348Well, what of that?
15348Well?
15348Well?
15348Well?
15348Were you born in this region, Van der Kemp?
15348What brought you here, my son?
15348What cheer, Van der Kemp? 15348 What d''ee say to my soundin''her on the subject?"
15348What d''you mean, father?
15348What does he say?
15348What have you got?
15348What if the wind were to change and blow it all this way?
15348What is it?
15348What is to be done?
15348What must be the dwelling- place of the Creator Himself when his footstool is so grand?
15348What o''that? 15348 What other matter?"
15348What part of the shore are we near, d''you think, father?
15348What said you?
15348What was her name?
15348What was it, then?
15348What you want wi''_ me_, sar?
15348What''s wrong, massa?
15348What''s wrong, my girl?
15348What, the fish?
15348What_ can_ he be up to now, I wonder?
15348When do you start?
15348When you are almost terrified of your wits do n''t you pretend that there''s nothing the matter with you?
15348Where I puts your bed, massa?
15348Where am I? 15348 Where are you?"
15348Where do you go first?
15348Where is the professor, Baso?
15348Where''s Verkimier?
15348Whereabouts are you?
15348Who can tell? 15348 Who''s Van der Kemp?"
15348Why are you so anxious not to meet this man?
15348Why d''you think so?
15348Why did you not shoot it, professor?
15348Why not bring this man who claims to be her father_ here_?
15348Why not?
15348Why not?
15348Why not?
15348Why should I''pologise?
15348Why so? 15348 Why you not look out?"
15348Why!--what-- how beautiful!--but-- but-- what do you mean?
15348Why, Verkimier, what are you after?
15348Why, do n''t your flossiphers say dat black am better dan white for''tractin''heat, an''ai n''t our skins black? 15348 Why, what''s the matter, Moses?"
15348Will it come again soon?
15348Will ye throw us a rope?
15348Winnie,said Nigel when they were alone,"does n''t it feel awesome and strange to be standing here in such intense darkness?"
15348Wo n''t you tell us what you intend to do, professor?
15348Would it be presumptuous if I were to ask why it is that this pirate had such bitter enmity against you?
15348Would n''t you like a trip in my brig to Anjer, my dear girl?
15348Yes-- well?
15348You don''want nuffin''more to- night, I s''pose?
15348You draw landscape also, I doubt not?
15348You enjoy this sort of thing?
15348You have heard of the saying, no doubt, that''all things are possible to well- directed labour''?
15348You knew it?
15348Your doubting me, father, does not correspond with your lately expressed opinion of my seamanship; does it?
15348_ I_ wish you would turn your eyes towards me for I''m convinced they would give some light--? 15348 ''Cause why? 15348 ART ON THE KEELING ISLANDS,_ facing page_ 36 THEY DISCOVER A PIRATES''BIVOUAC, 164DO YOU HEAR?"
15348All eyes were turned at once on Nigel, some boldly, others with a shy inquiring look, as though to say, Can_ you_ tell stories?
15348Am I not a first mate with a handsome salary?"
15348An''what did she say with her eyes?"
15348An''who is your frond?"
15348And what of Moses''opinion of the new home?
15348And who has been your other teacher?"
15348And why do you fear him?"
15348And-- and when may I start?"
15348Are you much hurt?"
15348Are you prepared?"
15348Are you there, boys?"
15348Besides, am I not your hired servant?"
15348Besides, is it not unkind to such hospitable people to bolt off after you''ve got all that you want out of them?"
15348But are you certain there will be another explosion?"
15348But how dare you, sir, venture to think of marryin''on nothin''?"
15348But why you call me Kathleen just now?"
15348But, excuse me-- v''ere did you come from, and vy do you come?
15348But, will you explain how I am to make sure of Winnie''s state of mind without asking her about it?"
15348But-- really-- are we to start at daylight?"
15348CONVERSATION: WHY DON''T WE DO MORE GOOD BY IT?
15348Can you keep a secret, Moses?"
15348Could reasoning be clearer or more conclusive?
15348D''ee feel_ that_?"
15348D''ye want a lift to- day?"
15348DAPHNE''S DECISION; OR, WHICH SHALL IT BE?
15348Do I not hear somet''ing?"
15348Do n''t you needlessly run considerable risk?"
15348Do''ee want to be smothered, roasted, and blown up?"
15348Do_ you_ know, Moses?"
15348Does he not run a very great risk of being discovered?"
15348Does n''t it strike you so?"
15348Does you really t''ink I would say or do any mortal t''ing w''atsumiver as would injure_ my_ massa?"
15348FREAKS ON THE FELLS: and Why I did not become a Sailor?
15348Has anything happened?"
15348Has not its owner a good bank account in England?
15348Have you ever been in England?"
15348Have you had breakfast?"
15348Have you observed these two strong ropes running all round our gunwale, and the bridles across with ring- bolts in them?"
15348Have you tasted zee Durian?"
15348Have you, Moses?"
15348He come in vis a moss----""A what?"
15348He felt inclined to add:"But why all this moving about?"
15348How came it to grow in this way?"
15348How did I get here?
15348How does he live?"
15348How''s''er head?"
15348How-- how''s old mother Morris?"
15348How_ do_ you catch the turtle?
15348I have longed to visit Sumatra, ant vat better fronds could I go viz zan yourselfs?"
15348I have preparations to make, however, and I have no doubt you wo n''t object to remain till all is ready for a start?"
15348If you say it is, how are we to account for love at first sight?
15348Is it not so?"
15348Is not zat vonderful?"
15348Is there a bulkhead between it and_ your_ heels?"
15348Is there danger?"
15348It''s a considerable length to get, that, is n''t it?
15348It''s quite clear that she do n''t know what danger means-- and why should she?
15348May I ask what that service is to be, and where you think of going to?"
15348May I look now at what you have done?"
15348Moor?"
15348Moor?"
15348Moses, what are you talking to over there?"
15348None ob de books or t''ings?"
15348Not hurt much, I hope?"
15348Now the thing is ridiculous-- impossible-- for how can I know your opinion on any subject until I have asked you?"
15348Now, Moses, are you ready?"
15348Now, do you see the little island away there to the nor''-west?"
15348Of course you understand how to manage sails of every kind?"
15348Old Holbein?"
15348Our Maker has so ordained it as well as stated it, for is it not written,"The sleep of the labouring man is sweet"?
15348Roy?"
15348Roy?"
15348Shall I have to fetch any provisions with me for the voyage?"
15348Should I reveal my suspicions to Van der Kemp?"
15348THE QUESTION OF QUESTIONS:"WHAT THINK YE OF CHRIST?"
15348There is a friend there who has just told me he met you on the Cocos- Keeling Island, Nigel Roy;--you start, Winnie?"
15348There was an indication of a tendency to flight on the part of the natives, but Nigel''s asking"Where_ are_ you?"
15348Vat is zat?
15348Vat say you, Van der Kemp?"
15348Vy you come here joost now?"
15348WILL IT LIFT?
15348Was he asleep?
15348Was it nightmare?
15348Well-- where was I?"
15348Whar you comes fro''?"
15348What cause better zan frondship?
15348What has happened?"
15348What say you, Nigel?"
15348What would you say to charter a steamer and have a grand excursion to the volcano?"
15348Where are my comrades-- Nigel and the negro?"
15348Where is she?"
15348Who has not experienced this, and felt himself to be a very hero of self- denial in the circumstances?
15348Why do ye ask?"
15348Why not?
15348Why, therefore, did he feel uncomfortable?
15348Why?"
15348Will my friend go by that?"
15348Wo n''t you go in, Miss Winnie?"
15348You and the hermit are goin''off to Krakatoa to- day, I suppose?"
15348You are not hurt, I hope-- are you?"
15348You hear?"
15348You know all about the brig, an''what a deal o''repair she''s got to undergo?"
15348You wo n''t miss them, I daresay?"
15348[ Illustration:"DO YOU HEAR?"
15348_ I_ know,"cried the cheeky boy;"you means Johnson?
15348a moth-- well?"
15348are you awake?"
15348came at that moment from the other side of the obstruction,"are you there-- all right?"
15348cried Nigel, interrupting him,"do you really mean to tell me that you''ve brought me here as a hired servant?"
15348echoed the youth,"are some of them wrong ones?"
15348father?"
15348is she Moses too?"
15348laughed Moses, in guttural tones,"you soon see dat-- I''spose it time for me to get out de grub, massa?"
15348man, what d''ye mean?"
15348replied the negro, looking up with a somewhat stern frown and a pout of his thick lips, as much as to say--"Who are_ you_?"
15348said Nigel;"but how do you manage when the mountain comes between you and the sun, as I see it can not fail to do during some part of the day?"
15348say you so, mine frond?

15348still king?"

15348what do you mean?"
15348what you gwine to do with massa?"
15348what''s his name, and what does he do?
15348where are''ee bound for?"
15348who could sleep with such wonders going on around?
