5367 | And, will you believe me, sir? |
5367 | And--will you hear more, sir? |

5368 | And I? |
5368 | And how came you in such a place? |
5368 | And your friends in Arlington Street? |
5368 | But he shall be rewarded nevertheless, eh, Richard? 5368 But where is the gallant seaman who saved you, Richard?" |
5368 | Did you not know you had friends in London, sir? |

5368 | Have you no other friends in London? |
5368 | Here? 5368 How do you know you would get your money again, Banks?" |
5368 | How know you I am a gentleman, Captain Paul? |
5368 | How much, I say? |
5368 | May I make so bold as to ask, sir, whether you are a patron of literature? |
5368 | Now by Saint Andrew,exclaimed he,"are ye kelpie or pirate?" |
5368 | Now may I tell these rogues begone, Richard? |
5368 | Now, sirs, whereaway? |
5368 | Postilion,he called,"which inn here is most favoured by gentlemen?" |
5368 | Pray, my good Goble, why all this fol- de- rol about admitting a gentleman to your house? |
5368 | Tell me, MacMuir,said I,"is not the captain in some trouble?" |
5368 | There is no chance of touching in the colonies? |

5368 | What quarrel is this, Richard? |
5368 | What''ll ye be doing now, Dickie lad? |

5368 | Why, my masters, why so glum? |
5368 | Ye''re not a- going to sell yereself for seven year, my lad? |
5368 | You are going to London with me? |
5368 | You? |
5368 | An'', Jamie, ye''ll see that nae harm cams to her when I''m far awa''?" |
5368 | And did the bees still give the same bonnie hiney, and were the red apples still in the far orchard? |
5368 | And is it not so of your redemptioners?" |
5368 | And then to his servant:"Colomb, is my writing- tablet unpacked?" |
5368 | And was Nancy, the cow, still i''the byre? |
5368 | And who the devil are you, sir, that you know my name?" |
5368 | And yet, I reflected secondly, why not? |
5368 | Are all young gentlemen from Maryland so fiery? |
5368 | But how to choose between fifty severe and imposing mansions? |
5368 | But how was his Lordship to know that he was dealing with no common sea- captain? |
5368 | But what the devil do you do in such clothes? |

5368 | Did Janet reca''the simmer nights they had supped here, wi''the bumclocks bizzin''ower the candles? |

5368 | Is there no one of your province in the town to attest your identity?" |

5368 | Manners''s family?" |
5368 | Manners?" |
5368 | May I ask your name, sir?" |
5368 | My God, Mr. Dix, do I look like a rogue?" |
5368 | The old porter recognized Paul by a mere shake of the head and the words,"Yere back, are ye?" |
5368 | Was he going to put the story in a magazine? |
5368 | What would John Paul say? |
5368 | What''s this?" |
5368 | When we had got within twenty feet or so of the landing, a dame in a red woollen kerchief called out:"What hae ye done wi''Mungo, John Paul?" |
5368 | cried mine host,"ye ken Ivie o''Maryland, Ivie my brither?" |
5368 | cried the captain when I returned;"have you seen your friends?" |
5368 | exclaimed Comyn, astonished;"and pray, what are you now, sir?" |
5368 | said the bailiff when we were got in beside one of his men, and burning with the shame of it;"to the prison? |
15130 | Are you free? |
15130 | Are you travelling any distance, my friend? |
15130 | Can thee read or write any, James? |
15130 | Do you know why these boys have not got home this morning yet? |
15130 | Have you got papers? |
15130 | I suppose, then, you are provided with free papers? |
15130 | If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him, but if a man sin against God, who shall entreat for him? |
15130 | Were you away yesterday? |
15130 | What are you rolling your white eyes at me for, you lazy rascal? |
15130 | --"What does thee know about that boy?" |
15130 | After an hour or two of such freaks of joy, a gloom would come over me in connexion with these questions,"But where are you going? |
15130 | And could He not also have given the gospel to us without making us slaves? |
15130 | And has a man no sense of honour because he was born a slave? |
15130 | Another said,"Who would have thought that rascal was so''cute?" |
15130 | Are you then, by sustaining the relation of a slaveholder, forming a character to dwell with God in peace? |
15130 | BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"How did thee find out that fact?" |
15130 | BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"What did he offer thee to find the boy?" |
15130 | BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"Where art thou from?" |
15130 | BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"Who did he run away from?" |
15130 | But what is generally the fate of such female slaves? |
15130 | But what treatment did you see fit to return me for all this? |
15130 | But what, my dear sir, is a reputation among posterity, who are but worms, compared with a destiny in the world of spirits? |
15130 | But why this enormous sum for two mere children? |
15130 | Could He not have made this a great and wealthy nation without making its riches to consist in our blood, bones, and souls? |
15130 | Has he no need of character? |
15130 | How do I know what precipices may be within its bounds? |
15130 | How do I know what ravenous beasts are in this wood? |
15130 | How shall I act so that he will reap the benefit of my time and talents? |
15130 | How shall I know when I am on the right road again? |
15130 | How would an untutored slave, who had never heard of such a writer as Archdeacon Paley, be likely to act in such a dilemma? |
15130 | I answered him politely; when the following occurred:--"Who do_ you_ belong to?" |
15130 | I can not rest in this wood to- morrow, for it will be searched by those men from whom I have escaped; but how shall I regain the road? |
15130 | I know that Pennsylvania is a free state, but I know not where its soil begins, or where that of Maryland ends? |
15130 | I ventured to ask the lad at the gate another question-- Which is the best way to Philadelphia? |
15130 | I was arrested, and the demand made upon me,"Who do you belong to?" |
15130 | If you ask me if I expected when I left home to gain my liberty by fabrications and untruths? |
15130 | If you ask me whether I had expected before I left home, to gain my liberty by shedding men''s blood, or breaking their limbs? |
15130 | If you ask me whether I now really believe that I gained my liberty by those lies? |
15130 | Is not my liberty worth more to me than two hundred dollars are to them? |
15130 | Is not this enough without the blood of some half- score of souls? |
15130 | Let me ask any one of Anglo- Saxon blood and spirit, how would you expect a_ son_ to feel at such a sight? |
15130 | Nay, is Christ divided? |
15130 | Now arose a serious query-- which is the right prong for me? |
15130 | On being informed that I was, I asked her if she knew where I could get employ? |
15130 | On the questions, What shall I do for the slave? |
15130 | PED.--"I belong in Conn."BROTHER- IN- LAW.--"Did thee see the boy''s master?" |
15130 | PED.--"I understand he had a black boy with him last winter, I wonder if he is there yet?" |
15130 | PEDLER.--"Do you know one W.W. somewhere about here?" |
15130 | Shall I call on my brother as I pass through, and shew him what I am about? |
15130 | The question may be asked, Why I have published anything so long after my escape from slavery? |
15130 | The question was, shall I hide my purpose from them? |
15130 | Then what will become of your own doubtful claims? |
15130 | What are you going to do? |
15130 | What kind of a man was he?" |
15130 | What substance is there in a piece of dry Indian bread; what nourishment is there in it to warm the nerves of one already chilled to the heart? |
15130 | What will you do with freedom without father, mother, sisters, and brothers? |
15130 | What will you do? |
15130 | What will you say when you are asked where you were born? |
15130 | Where did he come from?" |
15130 | Will not the whole family be sold off as a disaffected family, as is generally the case when one of its members flies? |
15130 | Will they not be suspected? |
15130 | Will this afford a sufficient sustenance after the toil of the night? |
15130 | Yes, sirs, many of our masters are professed Christians; and what advantage is that to us? |
15130 | You know nothing of the world; how will you explain the fact of your ignorance?" |
15130 | moreover, how will my flight affect them when I am gone? |
5371 | And Dorothy? |
5371 | And Tom? |
5371 | And any little ewe- lambs? |
5371 | And are they not here? |
5371 | And he is not suspected? |
5371 | And so you are turned Jew? |
5371 | And what if I tell you that I made friends with his Grace of Grafton, and Lord Sandwich, and was invited to Hichinbroke, his Lordship''s seat? |
5371 | And what say you, Richard? |
5371 | And who is that? |
5371 | And you are to spend it upon an actress? |
5371 | Are you Jack Carvel''s son, or are you an impostor? |
5371 | Are you or are you not to give me the money? |
5371 | Courtenay? |
5371 | Did I not know the lad? |
5371 | Have you not friends enough at home to care for you, sir? |
5371 | Have you seen her in The Orphan? 5371 How do you, Richard?" |
5371 | How do you, cousin? |
5371 | How do you? |
5371 | Is he to have his portion? |
5371 | Is it Richard? |
5371 | Is this your manor, Mr. Carvel? 5371 May I, too, bid you welcome, Richard,"said he, in his manly way;"and rejoice that I have got such a neighbour?" |
5371 | O Lord, Mr. Carvel, what has happened, sir? |
5371 | Our barrister is come, mother,we heard her exclaiming,"and whom do you think he has brought?" |
5371 | Richard, will you ever learn sense? 5371 So you like my surprise, girl?" |
5371 | That is you, Richard? |
5371 | Then Mr. Carvel died without knowing that I was safe? |
5371 | Then there is nothing to be got by contesting the will? |
5371 | What is going forward to- day? |
5371 | What said I, Henry? |
5371 | What say you to a game of billiards, Philip? |
5371 | What say you to that, gentlemen? |
5371 | Who is it owns your shop, my man? |
5371 | Why the devil was you not in Brook Street yesterday to tell me that your uncle had swindled you? 5371 Why, Jack, what are you doing here?" |
5371 | Will you come in for a moment, Richard? |
5371 | Will you do me the kindness, gentlemen,said she,"to leave me with my brother?" |
5371 | Will you look at them before you go? |
5371 | Worth your while? |
5371 | You are so-- high- strung,she said,"I was afraid you would--""I would--?" |
5371 | You have finished? |
5371 | You will do what I ask? |
5371 | You will have a feast, my good man? |
5371 | You will not worry over that senseless speech of Tom''s? |
5371 | Alone? |
5371 | And that reminds me, Richard,"said he, looking straight at me with his clear, dark eyes:"have you made any plans for your future?" |
5371 | Carvel?" |
5371 | Carvel?" |
5371 | Carvel?" |
5371 | Chipchase?" |
5371 | Did I not say so? |
5371 | Do you follow me?" |
5371 | Do you know that you will ruin your father in another year and you continue?" |
5371 | Do you think you can prove that?" |
5371 | Eh, Courtenay?" |
5371 | Eh, Courtenay?" |
5371 | Eh, doctor?" |
5371 | Had I seen him in London? |
5371 | Have you been to London?" |
5371 | Have you not heard of her among your tobacco- hills? |
5371 | Have you spoken of this?" |
5371 | He is to be factor of Gordon''s Pride?" |
5371 | How goes the crop, Richard? |
5371 | How would you like to be clerk this winter to the Committee of Correspondence?" |
5371 | Is there a possibility of any such document?" |
5371 | Lloyd?" |
5371 | Must I take orders from the likes o''him, sir?" |
5371 | Or have you a seat in Kent?" |
5371 | Was it not fair to fight a scoundrel with his own weapons? |
5371 | What say you, Philip? |
5371 | What would poor father do? |
5371 | Where a deuce have you been, sir?" |
5371 | Will you come, Richard? |
5371 | Would it not be better that Mr. Bordley or Mr. Lloyd should act?" |
5371 | Your grandfather''s coachman? |
5371 | he exclaimed,"you that have played with March and Fox?" |
5371 | he exclaimed;"you have heard already?" |
5371 | he said;"you will leave her?" |
5371 | what do you fear?" |
10401 | Daniel,he said, addressing me by my Christian name,"what are you doing here? |
10401 | In what position is the prisoner placed by the evidence? 10401 Who is this man? |
10401 | _ District Attorney_.--What newspaper is that from which the counsel reads? 10401 And does not this open a plain path for this prisoner out of the danger of this prosecution? 10401 And how did the slaves behave after they were captured? 10401 And, looking at those facts, is it necessary for me to open my lips in reply? 10401 Are you going to presume that the chickens run into his bag of their own accord, and without his agency? 10401 Are you to presume that the horse came to him of its own accord? 10401 Because the people in another land have arisen and triumphed over the despot, who had done-- what? 10401 But shall this prisoner be allowed to take advantage of his own wrong? 10401 But was not the vessel chartered in Philadelphia to carry off negroes? 10401 By what second- sight are you to look into this void space and time, and to say that Drayton enticed them to go on board? 10401 Can any man be a patriot who pursues such a course? 10401 Can you, without any evidence, say that Drayton enticed them, and that by no other means could they come onboard? 10401 Did he not know they were slaves? 10401 Did he, or not? 10401 Did not that show his authority over them,--that the slaves were under his control, and that he was the master- spirit? 10401 Do n''t you think he ought to? 10401 Do they get up a debate in Congress, and a riot in the city of Washington, every time a theft is committed or attempted in the District? 10401 Does that look as if he seduced them? 10401 For what have we rejoiced? 10401 Has he done anything to take this case out of the transportation statute, and to convert it into a case of stealing? 10401 Has the District Attorney, with all his zeal, pointed out a single particle of evidence of that sort? 10401 He came here from Philadelphia for them; they are found on board his vessel; Drayton says he would steal a negro if he could; is not that enough? 10401 He chartered the vessel to carry off negroes; and, if they were free negroes, or he supposed them to be, how was he to realize an independent fortune? 10401 How can you ask me to abandon it, and thus become a party to my own degradation? 10401 How is he introduced to the jury by his Philadelphia friends? 10401 If he had employers, who were they? 10401 If his confessions are to be taken at all, they are to be taken together; and do they not tend to prove such a state of facts? 10401 If they had been running away, would they not have been downcast and disheartened? 10401 Is he an enlightened friend of freedom, or even a judicious friend of those with whom he affects to sympathize, who adopts such a course? 10401 Is there any crowd or excitement here? 10401 It was all very well for the prisoner''s counsel to smooth things over; but was I, instead of calling him a liar, to say, he told a fib? 10401 Might not somebody else have done it? 10401 Might they not have gone without being enticed at all? 10401 Now, he can not be guilty of both; and which of these offences, if either, does the evidence against him prove? 10401 Now, is it the only possible means of accounting for the presence of Houver''s slaves on board to suppose that this prisoner enticed them? 10401 Now, what is possession of a slave? 10401 Now, which of these two acts is proved against this prisoner? 10401 Shall the record of this trial go forth to the world showing that you have found a fact of which there was no evidence? 10401 The question for you is, Does the evidence in this case bring the prisoner within the law as laid down by the court? 10401 The real question in this case was, Which had I done? 10401 The whole question in this case is, Were these slaves stolen, or were they running away with the prisoner''s assistance? 10401 The wood was a blind; besides he lied about it;--would he have ever come back to collect his note? 10401 There was the fact of their being under the hatches, concealed in the hold of the vessel,--did not that prove he meant to steal them? 10401 We now ask a categorical answer,--Will you remove your press? 10401 We now ask of you, Shall this be done? 10401 Were not these slaves found in Drayton''s possession, and did n''t he admit that he took them? 10401 When I call him a thief and a felon, do I go beyond the charge of the grand jury in the indictment? 10401 Where can the government produce positive testimony to the taking? 10401 Where is the least evidence that the prisoner seduced these slaves, and induced them to leave their masters? 10401 Who does not know that such men are, practically, the worst enemies of the slaves? 10401 Why discuss, when they can not act? 10401 Why first lay down an abstract principle, which they intend to violate in practice? 10401 Why had not these black people, so anxious to escape from their masters, as good a light to their liberty as I had to mine? 10401 Why say he knew he should end his days in a penitentiary? 10401 Why say he took them for gain, if he did not steal them? 10401 Why say if he got off with the negroes he should have realized an independent fortune? 10401 Why so, if the negroes were not slaves? 10401 Why, then, this sudden feeling in his behalf? 10401 Will not these wailings of anguish reach the ears of the Most High? 10401 Would not they have said, Now we are taken? 10401 Would they not exhaust the law- books to find the severest punishment? 10401 You are to look at the evidence; and where is the evidence that the prisoner seduced and enticed these slaves? 5366 And how is it you are so far from home, and alone, my little one?" |
5366 | And how went it, Miss Manners? |
5366 | And so he thinks he has found a divinity, does: he? |
5366 | And this is young Mr. Carvel, whom I hear wins every hunt in the colony? |
5366 | And what were they saying? |
5366 | And will you not have my chestnuts, sir, for your kindness? |
5366 | Are there not better methods for obtaining what you wish than those you practise? |
5366 | Are you glad to go? |
5366 | Are you not happy, Dolly? |
5366 | Are you not well, Richard? |
5366 | But you,I said, bending to her ear,"is it Fitzhugh, Dorothy?" |
5366 | But,I interrupted, when I was somewhat recovered,"why should you think me in love with Patty? |
5366 | Can you see the frigate, Stanwix? |
5366 | Do you mean Mr. Grafton, fellow? |
5366 | Do you mind how you once asked the favour of inviting her in the place of a present? 5366 Do you remember the place where I used to play fairy godmother, and wind the flowers into my hair?" |
5366 | England? |
5366 | Have you forgotten me, Richard? |
5366 | Have you heard the news from abroad, Richard? |
5366 | Have you not enough to wish you good- by, Dolly? |
5366 | Is it? |
5366 | Is your grandfather worse? |
5366 | Mr. Allen consents to that, sir? |
5366 | Now where a- deuce were you, Richard? |
5366 | Oh, Richard, is, there not something you can do? |
5366 | Plotting? |
5366 | Scipio,she cries,"why are we not served?" |
5366 | So you are the young barrister''s daughter? |
5366 | So you looked for her to be angry? |
5366 | Tidings, sir? |
5366 | What do you mean, Dolly? |
5366 | What said I say? |
5366 | What the devil do you mean, Hugo? |
5366 | What think you of the rector as a representative of heaven, Harvey? |
5366 | What was it, Betty? |
5366 | What was my prediction, Miss Dolly, when you stepped your first dance at Carvel Hall? |
5366 | What were you about, moping off alone, with a party in your honour, sir? |
5366 | Where have you been of late, sir? 5366 Who is this, Richard?" |
5366 | Who? |
5366 | Why did you lie, I say? |
5366 | Why do n''t you assert yourself, Richard? 5366 Why do n''t you make me jealous?" |
5366 | Why do you ask me? 5366 Why do you ask?" |
5366 | Why do you not coarse over, as you used to? |
5366 | Will you join us at catch and swing? |
5366 | Will you not, my dear? |
5366 | Will your Excellency confess likewise? |
5366 | Would you miss me if I went away, Richard? |
5366 | You do not care for Patty? |
5366 | You silly boy,said she,"ca n''t you see that she herself has prescribed for you? |
5366 | You wo n''t be wanting her now, your honour? |
5366 | After all these years have you dropped from the weight of a blow?" |
5366 | And at that moment perceiving me she added,"Why so disconsolate, my dear nephew? |
5366 | And in the Coffee House, and in every drawing- room in town, prophesy for her a career of conquest such as few could boast? |
5366 | Are they not all alike, mother?" |
5366 | Are you coming, mammy?" |
5366 | Because, forsooth, my hair is white now, does Bess flatter herself I do not know her secret? |
5366 | Could we wish for more? |
5366 | Have I ever been one to make pretences?" |
5366 | How does your grandfather? |
5366 | How now, Mr. Carvel? |
5366 | How now, sir? |
5366 | I thank Heaven you are big and honest and clumsy and--""And what, Dorothy?" |
5366 | In Gloucester Street?" |
5366 | Is it not enough to admit that the money I get for your instruction keeps me in champagne?" |
5366 | Is n''t she from Maryland?" |
5366 | Is she here?" |
5366 | Manners?" |
5366 | Or does Comyn believe that these old eyes can see no farther than the spectacles before them? |
5366 | Swain?" |
5366 | Tell me, is it your Uncle Grafton?" |
5366 | Was it Dorothy''s conduct that drove me? |
5366 | Was it possible? |
5366 | Was it strange that Dr. Courtenay should pride himself upon the discovery of a new beauty? |
5366 | Was it surprising that the Gazette should contain a poem with the doctor''s well- known ear- marks upon it? |
5366 | Was it worth while now, I asked myself, to disturb the peace of that mind? |
5366 | What be him and Mr. Grafton a- doing here, sir, plotting all kinds o''crime while the old gentleman''s nigh on his back?" |
5366 | What life ever worth living has been without its tender attachment? |
5366 | What need to ask? |
5366 | What people of consequence have we here? |
5366 | Where have you been hiding? |
5366 | Whether or no such characters make them one and the same, who can tell? |
5366 | Why were you not here to see Miss Manners tread a minuet? |
5366 | You deny her?" |
5366 | You were about to do me the honour of a communication?" |
5366 | he cried,"have you succumbed? |
5366 | says she;"how can you, when''tis you and mother, and Richard here, who make me go into the world? |
2008 | How shall I to myself alone, The weakness of my bosom own? 2008 Why pines my heart so wearily, Why heaves my aching breast, And why is sleep so far from me, When others are at rest? |
2008 | And a few years, in which to eat the fruit Of life''s strange tree, so bitter at its core, Then death, the quiet grave, sleep, and-- what more? |
2008 | And a nation''s grateful praise Given to thine after days? |
2008 | And have I not already said That these things are, that they are quick with life,-- Such life as disembodied spirits have,-- That they are deathless? |
2008 | And is thy mercy to their wailings deaf? |
2008 | And thus from varying year to year, The youthful chief has lingered here; Chief!--why is he so nobly named? |
2008 | And who by kith, and who by name, Is he, that lone, yet haughty one? |
2008 | Are thine acts As full of wisdom, and as free from blame? |
2008 | Be still, worn heart, be still; does not the cold And heavy clay-- clod mingle with her mould? |
2008 | Burns thy glance with victory? |
2008 | Canst thou not be content when thou art feared By those who rule a world? |
2008 | Did she curse or bless Thee with her frown or smile? |
2008 | Dost thou dream of conflicts done, Perils past and trophies won? |
2008 | Dost thou not fear to tread a path like this? |
2008 | Dost thou not pity now? |
2008 | Eternal-- is it not eternal-- this Our passionate love? |
2008 | Had earth yet one whose smile could stir, My spirit with deep love for her? |
2008 | Has thy breath made them quick with, breathing life? |
2008 | Has thy hand shaped them out the forms they wear? |
2008 | Hast thou too sinned? |
2008 | Hast though not heard her holy songs of peace And plenty warbled from each vocal grove, And murmured by her myriads of streams? |
2008 | Have I not answered thee? |
2008 | How Dealt Fortune with thee? |
2008 | How many warriors at his call, By Arcouski''s breath inflamed, Would with him fight, and for him fall? |
2008 | I have health, And strength, and food, and raiment, and employ, And should I not then have a joyous heart? |
2008 | If not, then why deny to her the life And spirit you possess? |
2008 | If there be, beyond This wall of blackness, aught of mystery, What power shall guide us to it? |
2008 | Is love the offspring of the will? |
2008 | Is not the justice which confines him here Akin to cruelty? |
2008 | Let us go nearer, Now what seest though? |
2008 | Mark ye not how across that eye so clear, Steals his eclipse? |
2008 | Or had life yet some genial ray, That wooed me in its warmth to stay? |
2008 | Pants thy soul for battle now? |
2008 | Shall life possess, and beauty deck again That withered form, and foul and dusky cheek? |
2008 | Shall we at last less calmly sleep, When in the narrow death- house pent, Because the bosom of the deep Shall be our only monument? |
2008 | She sang a mournful song of love, Of trusting love betrayed; Ah, why did he who won her, prove So faithless to the maid? |
2008 | She thirsted, too, for knowledge, and she gave Her innocence-- her home in Paradise-- The happiness of him-- who shared her lot-- To know-- what? |
2008 | Spirit, why dost thou Taunt me with my mortality? |
2008 | Still silent? |
2008 | That thus you come with flowers to deck the mournful home of death; And thou-- why darkens so thy brow with grief''s untimely gloom? |
2008 | The noontide hour goes by, and yet The bridegroom tarries-- why? |
2008 | Was it a coward fear of death, That bade me treasure up my breath? |
2008 | Was thy brow Graced with the poet''s, hero''s garland? |
2008 | Were these of thine immortal will conceived? |
2008 | What is there yet Which thy insatiate mind desires to know? |
2008 | What moves thee thus? |
2008 | What precious burden do they bear? |
2008 | What wouldst thou know? |
2008 | What wouldst thou of me? |
2008 | When shall its hour of renovation come? |
2008 | When the alarum first was sounded, Marshalling in arms the brave, Forth thy fearless spirit bounded, To obtain thee-- what? |
2008 | Whence came we? |
2008 | Whence comes that shriek of wild despair That rises wildly on the air? |
2008 | Whither shall we direct our journey now? |
2008 | Whose is the arm so fondly thrown Around the cold, unconscious clay, That can not its caress repay? |
2008 | Whose name is on yon lettered stone? |
2008 | Why gazest thou on me and not on him? |
2008 | Why move they with such cautious care? |
2008 | Why not? |
2008 | Why, mindful of my fame and pride, When my brave brethren had died; Why, with my friendly, ready knife, Drew I not forth my useless life? |
2008 | With every flow''r Of graceful form, and soft and downy leaf, And tender hue, and tint, that Beauty owns, To deck her gentle breast? |
2008 | Would''st learn immortal mysteries? |
2008 | Would''st see them? |
2008 | Ye know her pray''r, Was for the quiet of the tomb''s deep rest,-- Love''s sepulchre lay cold within her breast, Could peace dwell there? |
2008 | a thing that knows not death? |
2008 | and where? |
2008 | hast though not beheld Her weaving, in the sunny springtide hours, A fairy web of emerald- bladed grass To robe her valleys in? |
2008 | hath He not written that Death has dominion only over sin? |
2008 | is there aught still more remote than these From the great centre of the universe,-- The fair domain of life and living things? |
2008 | or is it, like a flower, So frail that it may fade and be forgotten in an hour? |
2008 | other watchers here at this lone hour? |
2008 | tell me if what I see is more Than a delusion; if it be, whence came These shades? |
2008 | what are they? |
2008 | what pow''r shall part us twain? |
2008 | what-- what are they now? |
2008 | where are they? |
2008 | where is mind, or heart, or soul, That has not bowed to its control? |
2008 | where, abide they now? |
2008 | whither go we? |
2008 | whose ashes rest beneath? |
2008 | why yet tarries he, and where? |
2008 | will she make Her home in thee, and shall these poor remains Share with her heaven''s pleasures or hell''s pains? |
5370 | Allen? |
5370 | Am I false to my own father? 5370 And Miss Manners? |
5370 | And are we to keep it? |
5370 | And how is she now, Comyn? |
5370 | And so you wish me to stop drawing? 5370 And then,"added his Lordship, facing me with absolute fierceness,"and then, Richard, why the devil did she weep? |
5370 | And what has happened to- day? |
5370 | And you call that worse than losing my dearest friend on earth? |
5370 | Any one with him? |
5370 | Are they all like you? |
5370 | Are you better, Dorothy? |
5370 | Are you in a hurry, sir,she asked at length, turning on me with a smile,"are you in a hurry to join my Lord March or his Grace of Grafton? |
5370 | Could you not see that I have been trying to get a word with you for ever so long? |
5370 | Did you ever know George Wrottlesey, of the Suffolk branch? |
5370 | Do you mean that Grafton has got possession of the estate? 5370 Do you think the house will hold you both?" |
5370 | Egad, Richard,said my Lord, when we had got to my lodgings,"I made him change colour, did I not? |
5370 | Have you ever thought much of the men we have in the colonies? |
5370 | His name, Fred? |
5370 | How do you feel, Richard? |
5370 | How do you know? |
5370 | Is Mr. Carvel dead? 5370 Is this so?" |
5370 | May I speak to your Grace alone? |
5370 | Sooner than he looked for? |
5370 | Tell me, is it, or is it not, true? |
5370 | The flowers you gave me on your birthday,--the lilies of the valley, do you remember? 5370 Then why,"cried his Lordship, hotly,"why before refusing me did she demand to know whether you had been in love with Patty Swain? |
5370 | Was she, now, my Lord? |
5370 | Well? |
5370 | What do you mean by that? |
5370 | What do you say to a drive behind those chestnuts of mine, for a breath of air? 5370 What have they said?" |
5370 | What is it, Richard? |
5370 | What is it? |
5370 | What time is it? |
5370 | Where did you see the duke? |
5370 | Where is our gallantry? 5370 Who?" |
5370 | Why should you think that I have been ill? |
5370 | Why, Richard,says the dog,"what do you think some wag has done now? |
5370 | Will you sit, sir? |
5370 | Will you sit? |
5370 | Worse? |
5370 | You have heard from Maryland? |
5370 | You have heard? |
5370 | You love the place? |
5370 | You once mentioned a name to me--"Yes? |
5370 | You went to his house? |
5370 | An hour and a half, did you say, sir? |
5370 | And I am afraid--""Of what?" |
5370 | And Mr. Marmaduke? |
5370 | And have you writ Captain Clapsaddle and your Whig friends at home of your new intimacies, of Mr. Fox and my Lord Sandwich?" |
5370 | And my reply,--what was that to be? |
5370 | And pray, how did this pretty subject come up?" |
5370 | Are you enjoying London, Richard? |
5370 | Are you going away without a word for me?" |
5370 | But where are you to stop? |
5370 | Can you bear it?" |
5370 | Carvel?" |
5370 | Carvel?" |
5370 | Carvel?" |
5370 | Carvel?" |
5370 | Carvel?" |
5370 | Do I understand your Lordship to question my courage?" |
5370 | Do you know how the little fool looks to me? |
5370 | Do you remember the argument you used when you had got me out of the sponging- house? |
5370 | Garrick,"Carlisle puts in, very solemn,"what have you done to offend the Terrible Unknown? |
5370 | Garrick?" |
5370 | Granting, indeed, that she had refused to marry me, was that any reason why I should desert my life- long friend and playmate? |
5370 | Have you enjoyed it?" |
5370 | Have you ever been mobbed, Richard?" |
5370 | Have you not seen your newspaper this morning?" |
5370 | How does that prospect sit?" |
5370 | Is she well?" |
5370 | Is that what you mean, sir?" |
5370 | Is that what you''re thinking?" |
5370 | Now I have confessed myself, and what is the result? |
5370 | Oh, tell me, is Mr. Carvel dead?" |
5370 | Pray, how did the duke appear as he was going into the Serpentine?" |
5370 | Richard, what have you done?" |
5370 | That hurts, does it? |
5370 | There was no need,"she exclaimed;"there was no need, do you hear? |
5370 | There, sir, was I not right to beg Sir John Fielding to put you in safe keeping until your grandfather can send for you?" |
5370 | Tyers?" |
5370 | Was she to speak of the Duke of Chartersea? |
5370 | What am I saying?" |
5370 | When will you get over your provincial simplicity?" |
5370 | Where is he?" |
5370 | Who had he else in the world to bear him affection on his death- bed? |
5370 | Why did you? |
5370 | Will you dine with Lady Carlisle in St. James''s Place next Friday?" |
5370 | You are asked?" |
5370 | You never made one in your life, Tell me,"I cried, shaking him until his teeth smote together,"was it not put up between you?" |
5370 | You wonder why I am of the King''s party?" |
5370 | and have you fallen out with my lady?" |
5370 | exclaimed Mr. Fox,"now what the devil can the hound want?" |
5370 | he cried;"what the devil do you here, sir?" |
5370 | says my Lord, very serious;"do I jest, Carlisle?" |
5370 | she repeated, raising her eyebrows a trifle;"and Comyn and Mr. Fox? |
5370 | she whispered, catching her breath;"what are you saying?" |
5370 | sniffed the''ostler;"ride''i m is it, yere honour? |
5370 | yelled the captain,"you question my horsemanship, my Lord? |
5372 | ''Ods, have you no invention? 5372 ''Slife, then, what have you been doing,"he cries,"seeing her every day and not asking her to marry you, my master of Carvel Hall?" |
5372 | ''Will your Grace spare me a minute in the drawing- room?'' 5372 An''will ye be aff to the wars?" |
5372 | And Dorothy? 5372 And did I speak of aught else?" |
5372 | And did he speak of the bargain he tried to make with our old friend, his Grace of Chartersea? |
5372 | And does my Lord feel better after-- after his excitement to- day? |
5372 | And how do you feel, sir? |
5372 | And how the devil did Mr. Dix know? |
5372 | And is the commodore still at the Texel? |
5372 | And never of Dolly? |
5372 | And now, Mr. Allen,I said,"to what do I owe the pain of this visit?" |
5372 | And pray, how did he discover I was in London, sir? |
5372 | And she knew it was from Commodore Jones? |
5372 | And so you are now an American? |
5372 | And think you that gentlemen of such spirit and resources will lack either for long? |
5372 | And to what is this an introduction? |
5372 | And what am I to pay for this information? |
5372 | And what news do you hear from London? |
5372 | And where have you been these days gone, Miss Will- o''the- Wisp, since the doctor has given me back my tongue? |
5372 | And will you give me some account of this last prodigious turn you have done her? |
5372 | And you agreed to marry him, Dolly? |
5372 | And you heard rumours of me, Dorothy? |
5372 | And you, Jack,I asked,"how is it that you are not in arms for the King, and commanding one of his frigates?" |
5372 | And you? |
5372 | Are you going to the war-- to leave us, Richard? |
5372 | Are you happy, Dolly? |
5372 | But you, Captain Paul,I said,"is-- is there no one?" |
5372 | Can you not see that Mr. Allen desires to do us-- to do you-- a service? |
5372 | Did you wish anything more, sir? |
5372 | Do you feel strong enough for a journey, Richard? |
5372 | Do you hear us? |
5372 | Do you know what he wishes, Dorothy? |
5372 | Do you really want me, sir? |
5372 | Dolly had n''t told you? |
5372 | Grafton Carvel in London? |
5372 | Has the risk you ran getting me into England ever occurred to you, Jack? |
5372 | Has your Uncle Grafton called to express his sympathies, Richard? |
5372 | Have you struck, sir? |
5372 | He tried to sell her again? |
5372 | How am I to piece words enough together to thank you for this supreme act of charity? |
5372 | How may you be directed to? |
5372 | How was I to suspect that you loved a provincial booby like me, when you had the choice of so many accomplished gentlemen with titles and estates? |
5372 | How were you to perceive, indeed, that you had qualities which they lacked? |
5372 | In Arlington Street? |
5372 | Is all the world turning virtuous? 5372 Is-- is it Dorothy?" |
5372 | Out of Holland? |
5372 | Richard, do you love me? |
5372 | Scared you? |
5372 | So he''s back, is he? |
5372 | Then he appears to be a landowner? |
5372 | What Israelite brickmaker of Pharaoh''s dreamed of Solomon''s temple? 5372 What am I to say to you, Jack?" |
5372 | What appearance does the man make? |
5372 | What have you there, Richard? |
5372 | What plan would you pursue, sir? |
5372 | What ship is that? |
5372 | When you consider all the harm you have done me, and all the double- dealing I may lay at your door, can you blame me for my feelings? |
5372 | Where are you going, sir? |
5372 | Where away? |
5372 | Where is Miss Dolly? |
5372 | Where-- where is Miss Dolly? |
5372 | Who is to mend my waistcoats now? |
5372 | Why, Jack,said I,"what have we there? |
5372 | Will you see a visitor, Richard? |
5372 | Yes, Marse Dick? |
5372 | You are not going? |
5372 | --"Mr. Allen, who was the rector of St. Anne''s? |
5372 | Again came the hail:"What ship is that?" |
5372 | Allen?" |
5372 | Already, sir? |
5372 | And I let her come in, will you give me your honour as a gentleman not to speak more than two words to her?" |
5372 | And do you recall the teamster we met by the Park, and how he arrested his salute when he saw who it was? |
5372 | And how much of that money do you suppose I get, sir? |
5372 | And how was I to repay them? |
5372 | And suddenly I heard you cry:''Patty, when I return will you be my wife?'' |
5372 | And what may that be?" |
5372 | And what says Mr. Congreve? |
5372 | And who should come bursting in at the door but my Lord Comyn? |
5372 | And who was he, that stood so straight upon the quarter- deck, to instil this scum with love and worship and fervour to blind them to such odds? |
5372 | And why was the hair now of a whiteness with the lace of the cap? |
5372 | And would you break our commander of her rank? |
5372 | Another prize?" |
5372 | But why did it appear so old and sorrow- lined? |
5372 | Carvel?" |
5372 | Did I not pull you into the coffee- room of the Star and Garter years ago, and tell you that same?" |
5372 | Do you know how she may be directed to?" |
5372 | Do you know what her answer was, Dorothy?" |
5372 | Do you think I will allow the hope of all England to be staked for a pirate? |
5372 | Eh, madam, must he not shut his eyes?" |
5372 | Even my voice sounded in the distance as I continued:"Will you be the mistress of Carvel Hall, Dorothy? |
5372 | For what is hell if it is not hope dead and buried, and galling regret for what might have been? |
5372 | Had it not been for her happiness do you imagine I would have picked you out of that crew of half- dead pirates in the Texel fort?" |
5372 | Had time changed her? |
5372 | Has your imagination left you, captain?" |
5372 | His name? |
5372 | How can we hope to compete with England on the sea?" |
5372 | How could you so have misunderstood me, Richard?" |
5372 | I said, holding him out,"now where the devil got you that?" |
5372 | Is it the bliss you pictured?" |
5372 | Is it the generations which decide? |
5372 | Is the millennium arrived?" |
5372 | Jones?" |
5372 | Manners?" |
5372 | Manners?" |
5372 | Manners?" |
5372 | May I not see Dorothy? |
5372 | Mr. Allen in London, and here?" |
5372 | Need I say that that woman is you, Dorothy? |
5372 | Patty, if I return, will you be my wife?" |
5372 | Remarking the pain in my face, he added, with a concern which may have been comical:"And she is not married?" |
5372 | Richard,"she said,"do you recall my asking you in the coach, on the way from Castle Yard, for the exact day you met my father in Arlington Street?" |
5372 | She has been watching with me?" |
5372 | So you want to see her? |
5372 | Stephen''s?" |
5372 | Tell me if she is gone away?" |
5372 | Then, as we sat talking in low tones, the door opened, and a hearty voice cried out:"Now where is this rebel, this traitor? |
5372 | Was this but one more of those thousand voices, harsh and gentle, rough and tender, to which I had listened in vain this age past? |
5372 | What''s I done tole you, Miss Dolly? |
5372 | What''s I done tole you, honey?" |
5372 | Where had my fine nobleman been at the critical point of his friend''s misfortunes? |
5372 | Who were they to fight the bone and sinew of the King''s navy in a rotten ship of an age gone by? |
5372 | Why not the sea, indeed? |
5372 | Why should you? |
5372 | Will you tell him so for me, Dorothy?" |
5372 | could you go no higher? |
5372 | has the puppy told you?" |
5372 | have I not always sworn that she loved you? |
5369 | ''An American, Mr. Walpole, and from Maryland?'' 5369 ''Is it true that Richard Carvel was in love with Miss Swain?'' |
5369 | And Grafton? |
5369 | And afterward--"And afterward? |
5369 | And are you not, then, to see London now you are here? |
5369 | And did he stand in need of much persuasion, captain? |
5369 | And has Mr. Lloyd said nothing of my uncle? |
5369 | And my grandfather? |
5369 | And now, will you go to Maryland and be a fool? |
5369 | And pray where did you get your learning? |
5369 | And pray, Richard, why not''? |
5369 | And proof? |
5369 | And she refused you? |
5369 | And when do you sail? |
5369 | And where is the tail of this comet? |
5369 | And who may Whipple be? |
5369 | And why? |
5369 | And you are still sailing at the ebb? |
5369 | And-- and what did he say? |
5369 | Are you never coming back, Dolly? |
5369 | Are you sure my father saw you? |
5369 | But did you think I would require of you the sacrifice of leaving London now? |
5369 | But your clothes? 5369 Can you blame me for wishing to see you before I leave, Dolly?" |
5369 | Captain Paul,I said, sitting down beside him,"have I deserved this from you? |
5369 | Did you imagine I would let him escape so easily? 5369 Do all the women cheat in America too?" |
5369 | Do you know why I stayed? |
5369 | Drury Lane, sir,he replied, giving me just the corner of a glance;"shall I fetch a coach, sir?" |
5369 | Egad, Charles, is this he the Beauty rescued from Castle Yard? |
5369 | Exguse me, your honour,said the person,"but haf you seen Mister Fox?" |
5369 | Faith, and why not, sir? 5369 Have you ever acted, Captain Paul?" |
5369 | Have you met the Duke of Chartersea? 5369 He would have murdered you-- you, Richard?" |
5369 | How about his honour with whom you supped at Windsor? 5369 How in the name of lineage did she come to have such a father?" |
5369 | If we should take a wherry, Richard,said Dolly,"who would know of it? |
5369 | Is not what so, my dear young lady? |
5369 | Mr. Fox,I said, when he had paused,"before God, do you believe what you are saying?" |
5369 | Mr. Richard Carvel? |
5369 | Now where the devil has your captain flown to? |
5369 | Pray, how did you know? |
5369 | Pray, my dear, whom have you invited to- day? |
5369 | Richard,she said sadly,"why, why did you ever tell me? |
5369 | The commission? |
5369 | To save me from the Duke of Chartersea? |
5369 | What ails you, Richard? |
5369 | What are you saying, Richard? 5369 What is the matter with you, Richard?" |
5369 | What nonsense has Comyn put into your head? |
5369 | What, you will not eat, either, Richard? |
5369 | When was this? |
5369 | When? |
5369 | Where are we? |
5369 | Which would you rather be, Richard,said Dolly to me, under her breath,"Horace Walpole or Captain John Paul? |
5369 | Who put those frightful skulls upon Temple Bar? |
5369 | Who the deuce is he? |
5369 | Who told you of this, Dolly? |
5369 | Why bother over matters that are past and gone? 5369 Why did n''t you go home with your captain?" |
5369 | Why let the little cur stand in the way? |
5369 | Willingly, willingly, my Lord,said Mr. Dix, and added immediately:"Your Lordship will not object to putting that in writing? |
5369 | Win a thousand pounds every night at Brooks''s, or improve your time and do your duty, and get Miss Manners out of his Grace''s clutches? 5369 Would you fight him?" |
5369 | You are going to take the captain to Maryland, Richard? |
5369 | You say that Patty has been ill? |
5369 | You will come, Richard? |
5369 | Your Ladyship believes me versed in no other subject? |
5369 | ''What d''ye think I met at Windsor, Miss Manners?'' |
5369 | Ah, London Town, by what subtleties are you tied to the hearts of those born across the sea? |
5369 | And had you not strength enough to lift a knocker, sir,--you who can raise a man from the ground with one hand?" |
5369 | And the cause? |
5369 | And what, my dears, do you think he said to him? |
5369 | And when are you coming back?" |
5369 | And who was responsible for all this luxury and laxity? |
5369 | And will you tell me that story of your adventures which I long to learn?" |
5369 | And you know what you are doing?" |
5369 | Are all merchantmen so clean?" |
5369 | Are they likely to be pacified now that we have taken off all except the tea? |
5369 | But where is your captain?" |
5369 | But why had she made me stay in London? |
5369 | But you have written him?" |
5369 | But, sir,"I continued curiously,"what do you know of John Paul''s abilities as an officer?" |
5369 | CHAPTER XXVII IN WHICH I AM SORE TEMPTED"Who the devil is this John Paul, and what is to become of him?" |
5369 | CHAPTER XXX A CONSPIRACY"Banks, where is the captain?" |
5369 | Ca n''t you think of any other way of getting her? |
5369 | Can you or can you not answer a simple question?" |
5369 | Carvel?" |
5369 | Carvel?" |
5369 | Could Mr. Walpole tell him of this club of both sexes just started at Almack''s? |
5369 | Damn it, sir, do n''t you see that it is you, and no one else, who has procured this commission? |
5369 | Damn that fellow Eiffel, and did he thrust you into the Jerusalem Chamber?" |
5369 | Did Captain Paul know him? |
5369 | Did you find the benches hard? |
5369 | Do you know what you are doing? |
5369 | Do you suppose Rigby was appointed Paymaster of the Forces because of his fitness? |
5369 | Et quel dessin, monsieur?'' |
5369 | For Dorothy had vowed it was her pleasure to see John Paul off, and who could stand in her way? |
5369 | For his abilities?" |
5369 | For is it not true, gentlemen, that the great masses of England are against the measures you impose upon us? |
5369 | Had his pain been the less because he had not loved her from childhood? |
5369 | Have I shown a desire to desert you now that my fortunes have changed? |
5369 | He must have thought me cursed ascetic, eh, Fitz? |
5369 | How does that strike you for a demi saison, Mr. Buckskin? |
5369 | How is it that you were in prison?" |
5369 | I exclaimed;"gone where?" |
5369 | I suppose you are not making your accusation without cause?" |
5369 | I whispered; for I feared Mr. Marmaduke might appear at any moment;"or do you wish to remain in England always?" |
5369 | If I recommend you, why not, sir?" |
5369 | Is he to live like a Lord of the Treasury upon a master''s savings?" |
5369 | Is it not so, Miss Manners?" |
5369 | Is it possible?" |
5369 | Manners was forcing her to marry Chartersea? |
5369 | Tell me, do they really mean to go as far as rebellion?" |
5369 | Tell me,"says she, pointing at the royal yard of a tall East Indiaman,"did you go as high as that when it was rough?" |
5369 | The messenger--""Yes?" |
5369 | Then came a voice from beyond, calling:--"That you, Carvel? |
5369 | To Rotherhithe-- Redriff? |
5369 | Walpole?" |
5369 | Walpole?" |
5369 | Was it, indeed, possible that I could prevent her marriage with this man? |
5369 | What are you saying?" |
5369 | What interpretation might be put upon a score of little acts of hers that came a- flooding to mind, each a sacred treasure of memory? |
5369 | What is your inference, when he fights a duel about a Miss with my Lord Comyn?" |
5369 | What would he think? |
5369 | What''s he to do? |
5369 | Where were the whims of the quality to lead them next? |
5369 | Which would you rather have been, I say, William Shakespeare or Sir Francis?" |
5369 | Why can we not always be playmates?" |
5369 | Why had she spoken so to Comyn? |
5369 | Why had they ever taken her to London? |
5369 | Why was North himself made Prime Minister? |
5369 | Why was it that he feared my presence in London? |
5369 | Why wo n''t you come back to Maryland?" |
5369 | Why, otherwise, had she come to the sponging- house? |
5369 | Will you come with me?" |
5369 | Would my honour not have Mrs. Marble cook my dinner, and be dressed for Lady Pembroke''s ball? |
5369 | You speak of a young lady in Maryland?" |
5369 | You tell me he will allow Mr. Carvel to see no one?" |
5369 | a new Caribbee?" |
5369 | and"What have you there? |
5369 | are you, too, going to Maryland?" |
5369 | how about the landlord you spun by the neck? |
5369 | said Fox,"you refuse? |
12402 | And was this bright-- this fair domain-- With all its beauty, formed in vain? 12402 No answer still? |
12402 | What if they meet this side the goal? |
12402 | A step at the gate, in the path, on the sill; Did the postman return? |
12402 | A world is waiting for thee: And shall it be deceived? |
12402 | Ah, then, who''d dream that aught so fair, Was fleeting as the Summer air? |
12402 | And archly she said as she gave him his tea,"Where''s the valentine Archy, you promised to me? |
12402 | And if he sometimes noisy grows, What matter, if he''s right? |
12402 | And is not such a scene as this the spell, That lulls the restless passions into peace? |
12402 | And lightnings glared those towering trees among? |
12402 | And who are those men, daughter, helping him down? |
12402 | And will he come and mock me with his booty, And twirl my visions round his bony finger? |
12402 | And will he tell my heart no other beauty Upon the earth is mine-- no other duty, Than for his mandate linger? |
12402 | Are there no duties there to do? |
12402 | Are they our kindred? |
12402 | But avails it aught? |
12402 | But that''s not all-- the horse I ride, The ox I yoke, the dog I chide, The flesh and fish and fowl we feed on Are kindred, too; is that agreed on? |
12402 | But why thus chide-- why not with gratitude Receive and cherish ev''ry gleam of joy? |
12402 | But, slowly she revives-- when, quick as light, His cloak and wig are instantly thrown by-- And what is that that greets her''wildered sight? |
12402 | But, who than Jackson ever yet Has filled a prouder grave? |
12402 | By yon steep stair of ruddy light The sun is climbing fast aloft; What makes the stealthy, creeping chill That hangs about the morning still?" |
12402 | Call back the pure, forgiven, To such a world as this? |
12402 | Can bleeding hearts refrain? |
12402 | Can earthly commerce hush the music of the heart, and shut the door of memory on a friend? |
12402 | Can you know All the good I owe to you? |
12402 | Canst thou read his inmost soul? |
12402 | Canst thou search his secret feelings? |
12402 | Canst thou tell the hidden motives Which his actions here control? |
12402 | Death have hush''d The music that endears, And makes this chill''d existence tolerable? |
12402 | Did angels with snow- white wings come down And hover about her dying bed? |
12402 | Did friends who had left it, to greet her, advance And joyfully lead her to dwell with them, there? |
12402 | Did her gaze rest on valleys and pastures green, Where roses in beauty supernal, bloom? |
12402 | Did she cross the deep Jordan without any fears For all were now calmed on her dear Saviour''s breast? |
12402 | Did strains of sweet music her senses entrance While Earth, with her loved ones, receded in air? |
12402 | Did they bear a white robe, and a starry crown To place on their sainted comrade''s head? |
12402 | Do lilacs bloom in the wild green wood? |
12402 | Do roses drop from the bilberry bough? |
12402 | Dost thou mourn for the hoary- headed sage Who has sunk to the grave''neath the weight of age? |
12402 | Dost thou mourn that the gray and mouldering door Swings back to the reverent crowd no more? |
12402 | Dost thou mourn, that from sacred desk the word Of life and truth is no longer heard? |
12402 | Doth a watcher, pale and patient, Folded from the tempest''s wrath, Wait the coming of my footsteps Down the grave''s long, lonesome path? |
12402 | Earth, air and sky, in dire commune, Demand-- what hand shall guide them now? |
12402 | For the bride''s decay? |
12402 | For the bridegroom''s fall? |
12402 | For the light of youth quenched in the tomb? |
12402 | For the vanquished pride of manhood''s bloom? |
12402 | Giant, young and strong, What impulse heaves thy throbbing breast? |
12402 | Hath the queen of all blossoming beauty Come forth with the early dawn? |
12402 | Have I return? |
12402 | Have we grown wiser? |
12402 | Heed the voice that asks in scorn,-- Thou liv''dst and reign''dst for what? |
12402 | Hey? |
12402 | Hold I the slightest part Within the boundless realm of thy confiding heart? |
12402 | How are you, George, my rhyming brother? |
12402 | How have we used this fleeting year? |
12402 | How long has that hand lain in dust? |
12402 | How long, and yet how long, must this frail bark be driven, While these unsteady, fitful hope- lights given, One after one expire? |
12402 | How long? |
12402 | How stands the case to- day? |
12402 | How, poor frail and erring mortal, Darest thou judge thy fellow- man And with bitter words and feelings, All his faults and frailties scan? |
12402 | I see her soul in yonder star, I see the soft lines of her face, And could God so unkindly mar That angel beauty and its grace? |
12402 | Is he erring? |
12402 | Is it chiming in woe or gladness, Its symphonies sweet and grand? |
12402 | Is it hung in an ancient turret? |
12402 | Is it rung for a shadowy sorrow, In the shadowy phantom land? |
12402 | Is it swung by a mortal hand? |
12402 | John A. Calhoun, my Joe John,"I wonder what you mean?" |
12402 | Just ask the wisest, What is matter? |
12402 | Let me see, Yes;"Can Christians consistently Engage in war against a brother And at the same time love each other?" |
12402 | List-- do you hear that mother speak For her son that is doom''d to die? |
12402 | Lying in your chamber low, Neath the daisies and the dew, Can you hear me? |
12402 | Must it be That all the fools in all creation, And knaves and thieves of every station In life, can call me their relation? |
12402 | No clothes to mend, that you could sew, No beer that''s worth the brewing? |
12402 | On pinions of light did she mount to the spheres Where all is contentment, and pleasure, and rest? |
12402 | Or dost thou ever give to me one thought? |
12402 | Or dost thou mourn that the house of God Has ceased to be a divine abode? |
12402 | Or shall the journey henceforth take A brighter phaze for me? |
12402 | Or shout for war? |
12402 | Or who shall hope, or friend, or foe, E''er to forget that hour? |
12402 | Reason return:--let strife be o''er? |
12402 | Saw ye in your solemn marches From the citadel of death, In our bridal halls of beauty Burning still the lamp of faith? |
12402 | Shall I next six- and- twenty make My journey, love, with thee? |
12402 | Shall warrior plumes bedeck thy crest? |
12402 | She cried--"within thy hidden hands What recompense is waiting me Beyond these naked wintry sands? |
12402 | She held her breath in silent dread, The crimson from her soft cheek fled, Low at her feet he knelt;--"No welcome for the leal and true? |
12402 | She is not dead, she''s shining In robes of spotless white; Why then are we repining? |
12402 | She is not dead-- O never Will sorrow cross her track; She''s passed Death''s darksome river, And who would have her back? |
12402 | That pastor and people have passed away, And the tears of night their graves bedew By the funeral cypress and solemn yew? |
12402 | That the gentle shepherd, who to pasture bore His flock, has gone, to return no more? |
12402 | That the tall and waving grass defiles The well- worn flags of the crowdless aisles? |
12402 | That the wild fox barks, and the owlet screams Where the organ and choir pealed out their themes? |
12402 | Then let me turn, and return too, For I have wandered from my text,-- Well, Mr. Steele, how do you do? |
12402 | Thus I behold thy wondrous arm And own thy works divine: Then what in life or death can harm So long as thou art mine? |
12402 | Thy mistress,--fair Beatrice,--dwells she here? |
12402 | To distant lands to roam and then Dead lips to welcome me again? |
12402 | To gain a life of shipwrecked bliss? |
12402 | To rise no more? |
12402 | Turning the lumbering, mumbling wheel; Which moans and groans as tho''t could feel?" |
12402 | WHAT IS MATTER? |
12402 | We can bear so much in youth; Who cares for a swift sharp pain? |
12402 | What ails the sunshine and the day?" |
12402 | What am I? |
12402 | What say''st thou? |
12402 | What startled you? |
12402 | What though the o''er- labored limbs are weary? |
12402 | When will the flood of human woe, That flows from folly, pride, and sin, Subside, and ever cease to flow? |
12402 | When will the reign of peace begin? |
12402 | When wilt thou come with thy tiny feet That bounded my glad embrace to meet? |
12402 | Where Nature, a paradise to grace, Hath loved her every charm to trace, That man, enamored of distress Should mar it into wilderness?" |
12402 | Where is the Divine compassion That God has shown to me? |
12402 | Where lilies in snowy and golden sheen Fill the air with their heavenly, rare perfume? |
12402 | Where then shall we poor mortals go? |
12402 | Who doubts, that ever saw him strike, He aimed to strike for right? |
12402 | Who never yield or quit the field, Can you blame Charlie then? |
12402 | Why dost thou pour thy sad complaint On the evening winds from a bosom faint? |
12402 | Why flee me, like a debtor in arrears? |
12402 | Why have I lived for this? |
12402 | Why rake out from time''s dull ashes, And before the world display Deeds, it may be, long repented And forgiven, ere this day? |
12402 | Why spend thy zest on barren sands? |
12402 | Wilt peal the bugle- blast afar And urge the cannon''s madd''ning roar? |
12402 | Wilt plead for right, or bleed for wrong? |
12402 | Wilt whisper peace? |
12402 | Years six and twenty have been mine To journey on alone: Shall I as many more repine, Before I am undone? |
12402 | Yet, when he deigned to raise it, Who could resist its power? |
12402 | and the sweets are free-- Wilt thou trill to the touch of outwearied fingers? |
12402 | and to his arm I''ll trust my destiny; For what in life or death can harm The soul that leans on thee? |
12402 | did you not hear that loud shriek? |
12402 | do you not see that wild eye? |
12402 | laughed the miller,"he pauses not and why-- In the sunshine pausing and musing I? |
12402 | may not my body rest Beneath that sod my heart loves best? |
12402 | my letter forget? |
12402 | my love, oh, why No answer to my pleading cry?" |
12402 | oh try to strengthen; Sad? |
12402 | seek in kindness, Then, to win him back to peace; Is he weak? |
12402 | the scene has turned, Where burn those fires now? |
12402 | what have I been doing?'' |
12402 | what shall dry that country''s tears Fast falling o''er his fall? |
12402 | when will slumber cease to hold The limbs that lie so still and cold? |
12402 | whose heavy plaint Drifts down the deathly shadows faint, Why weep ye for this risen saint? |
37369 | And now, Master Cadger, what wilt? 37369 And what say you, Arnold?" |
37369 | Are we set upon? 37369 Art reasonable again? |
37369 | Ay, to Warrington on the Cliffs; good!--and warily to be borne? 37369 Benedict-- nephew,"interposed the Lady Maria,"why dost thou fling thy bird so rudely? |
37369 | But you have seen the world, Doctor, and studied, and served in good families? |
37369 | Can this be true, Arnold? |
37369 | Can you describe its virtues, Doctor? |
37369 | Did you not steal that lob, my husband, from me, thief? |
37369 | Dost thou not know that I can put thee in the dust and trample on thee as a caitiff? 37369 Frents, how do you do?" |
37369 | Good lack, Mistress Dorothy, wife, why dost thou bear thyself in such a sort as this? |
37369 | Hast thou an elixir that shall expel a lumbago? |
37369 | Have I not said I could not? 37369 Have you e''er a good cleansing purge for a moulting hawk?" |
37369 | Have you heard the news, mistress? |
37369 | How came you by so rich an inventory, Rob? |
37369 | How dost, friend Rob? |
37369 | How fares it, gentlemen? 37369 How looks the night, Garret?" |
37369 | How many fingers, dame? |
37369 | How should it be other than ready? 37369 I know his name-- they told it to me there-- but his quality and condition, father?" |
37369 | I pray you, Master Captain,inquired the publican, having now regained his self- possession,"what speed at the Chapel? |
37369 | I pray you, what o''clock is it, mistress? |
37369 | If such a thing might be, where wouldst thou take it, Nichol? |
37369 | In the devil''s name, what have we here? |
37369 | In what force, did they say? |
37369 | Indeed!--there is probability in that report,said the Proprietary:"well, and how had they sped? |
37369 | Is it more seemly I should waste my strength on the fruitless labour to clamber up that rough slope, or thou come down to me? 37369 Is the dame likely to be angry, Captain?" |
37369 | Is your breviary needful when you go forth to practise a laneret? |
37369 | Master Shortgrass told me you had need of me,said Garret Weasel, as he now entered the door;--"what wouldst with me, wife Dorothy?" |
37369 | Old, did she say? 37369 Or a nostrum that shall be sure work on a horse with a farcy?" |
37369 | Then thou shouldst do well to despatch a messenger to him,interrupted the Lady Maria, playfully;"dost thou not think he might forget?" |
37369 | Then, in brief,said Nichol Upstake,"I would fain know if you could supply me with Antigua to- day, or aqua vitæ, I care not which?" |
37369 | There is a lie in thy face, John Alward;--the Mattapany road is the broadest and best of the two-- is it not so, Pamesack? |
37369 | There is something far off like the howl of a dog and yet more devilish I should say-- did ye not hear it, masters? 37369 They fired upon you, Captain?" |
37369 | Thou, who hast no more to do than a stray in the pound, what are you fit for, if it be not to do as you are commanded? 37369 Upon what condition?" |
37369 | What brought thee here, Garret Weasel? |
37369 | What can she say, when all is come and gone, but, perchance, that thou wert rash and hot- headed? 37369 What can that signify?" |
37369 | What dost thou mutter? |
37369 | What has become of that man Weasel? |
37369 | What hast thou seen, Captain? 37369 What is that?" |
37369 | What more? |
37369 | What news do you bring us from the old world? |
37369 | What was it? |
37369 | What would you with my husband, Master Baldpate? 37369 When does your provincial court hold its sessions?" |
37369 | Where are we, Pamesack? 37369 Wherein might it be obeyed, my Lord?" |
37369 | Who and what is this Master Secretary that hath set the maiden of the Rose Croft to look upon me with an evil spirit? 37369 Who be these, sir?" |
37369 | Who dwells here? |
37369 | Whose can it be else? |
37369 | Why dost thou not join in the burden? |
37369 | Why not? |
37369 | Why was I not told of this? |
37369 | Why, Garret, vintner, art asleep, man? |
37369 | Will you, mistress? 37369 Would you have the gauger''s wife, sister?" |
37369 | You are sure, Doctor Debor, these were Sinniquoes you saw? |
37369 | You give credence to these idle tales? |
37369 | You have late news from England? |
37369 | You have witnessed this yourself, Arnold? |
37369 | You will obey this high behest? 37369 You will speak to my father?" |
37369 | And did he not bring his sobriety with him from the very bosom of the land you rail against?" |
37369 | And then the woods!--what pallet hath colours for the forest? |
37369 | And, besides, what sort of an enemy do we fight? |
37369 | Are you not steeped in wickedness and abomination by evil- consorting with this copper Captain, and this most horrid wood ranger? |
37369 | Art thou such a dizzard as to tempt my anger? |
37369 | But these whirring and whizzing ghosts and their cronies, that fly about one''s ears like cats, and purr and mew like bats-- what am I saying? |
37369 | But who the countless charms can draw That grac''d his mistress true? |
37369 | But you must have heard it before this?" |
37369 | Can you suspect such intercourse?" |
37369 | Canidius, That from Terentum, and Brundusium, He could so quickly cut the Ionian sea, And take in Toryne? |
37369 | Did I not say true when I tell you it is not my nature to soar in de clouts?" |
37369 | Did I not see the very cask on''t at Trencher Rob''s? |
37369 | Did n''t I see both him and his trumpeter last night at the Crow and Archer, with all their jin- gumbobs in a pair of panniers? |
37369 | Did they find it easy to purchase their powder and lead in Albany? |
37369 | Did you not beguile me last night with a base lie? |
37369 | Did you not hear that shot, woman?" |
37369 | Did you not practice upon me, you faithless, false- hearted coward?" |
37369 | Did your instructer In the dear tongues never discourse to you Of the Italian mountebanks?" |
37369 | Do you admit the promise, my child?" |
37369 | Doth not the devil keep his quarters there?" |
37369 | Fairly, I hope, as you deserve? |
37369 | For my sake, pretty hostess, you will allow him to sup with us? |
37369 | Friends, you all saw these things?" |
37369 | Garret, how comes it that you did not tell this matter to your wife, as I charged you to do?" |
37369 | Had he come hither before you sailed? |
37369 | Has Fendall, or any of his confederates had commerce with this house, Captain Dauntrees? |
37369 | Has your goodman, honest Garret, come home yet, dame?" |
37369 | He lives near this troubled house?" |
37369 | He remembers me?--a blessing on his head!--and he wears well, Master Skipper?" |
37369 | Hither, Natta-- there is the wench on the pillion-- who could serve thee with a better grace than that?" |
37369 | How can you look me in the face, knowing him, as you do, for a most shallow vessel, Captain Dauntrees?" |
37369 | How dar''st thou reprove me, boy?" |
37369 | How does the world use thee? |
37369 | How fares it with thee, Master Skipper?" |
37369 | How goes the night with you dame?" |
37369 | How is it, Arnold? |
37369 | I do not soar in de clouts?" |
37369 | I were a fool to be vexed because I could not read the riddle of a maiden''s fancy: how should such fish of the sea be learned in so gentle a study? |
37369 | Is he more personable in shape or figure?--goes he in better apparel? |
37369 | Is he taking in sail?--is he seeking an anchorage? |
37369 | Is it not so, Arnold?" |
37369 | Is it not well named, my lady, and superlative cheap? |
37369 | Is it that he hath a place in the train of his Lordship? |
37369 | Is n''t that a bird? |
37369 | Is the Chapel ready for our service?" |
37369 | Lend me thy lantern quoth a? |
37369 | Look around you: is Anthony Warden so incapable, or so hurtful to your service that you might find plea to dismiss him?" |
37369 | Look at Arnold there: is there a more temperate, orderly, well- behaved liegeman in the world than the ranger? |
37369 | Nine, said you? |
37369 | Now to what wench, ask you? |
37369 | Now what scent art thou upon, Nichol Upstake? |
37369 | Now, what set thee to jogging so early, Dickon? |
37369 | The Lieutenant at the fort, doubtless, told thee that we were absent last night on special duty at his Lordship''s command?" |
37369 | The Proprietary remained for some moments silent: at last, turning to the ranger, he inquired--"What dost thou know of this house, Arnold?" |
37369 | The hostess bent her head down, as the Captain desired, when he said in a half whisper,"Send me a flask of the best,--you understand? |
37369 | Thou dost not spurn the strong waters, Kate of Warrington,--nor the giver of them?" |
37369 | We were thronged to- day; was it not so, Arnold?" |
37369 | Were it safe, think you, to wake him?" |
37369 | What call you your great compound, Doctor? |
37369 | What crotchet is this?" |
37369 | What devil of mutiny is abroad now? |
37369 | What do you seek on the wold?" |
37369 | What does Kate of Warrington in this neighbourhood? |
37369 | What dole hath he done this flight?--what more wealthy knave than himself hath he robbed? |
37369 | What have you to do with the flavour of the news? |
37369 | What makes you here? |
37369 | What new commodity, honest mistress, shall I find with Rob? |
37369 | What point of duty calls on us to baulk the skipper in his trade? |
37369 | What reason was given by the Northern Indians for joining in this scheme?" |
37369 | What servant would your Lordship displace? |
37369 | What will she say in the morning?" |
37369 | Whence comes he?" |
37369 | Where do you say you have spent the night?" |
37369 | Where dost thou come from?" |
37369 | Which of us has not, dame? |
37369 | Who is this Secretary of my Lord''s private chamber? |
37369 | Who showed them the path to my cabin, that I must be driven out at this hour?" |
37369 | Why are you angry, that you scowl so, Master Rob?" |
37369 | Why do you loiter there?" |
37369 | Why is not Albert in your train? |
37369 | Why should my birth- day be so remembered that all the town must be talking about it?" |
37369 | Will that content you, Blanche?" |
37369 | Would''st thou play at thine old game, and sack the town, and take the daintiest in it for ransom? |
37369 | You agree with me in this, Mistress Weasel?" |
37369 | You comprehend?" |
37369 | You dullards, could n''t I have told you it was the Dutch Doctor,--if your fright had left you but a handful of sense to ask a question? |
37369 | You have no counsel for me? |
37369 | You have the eatables safe and the wine sound, worthy Weasel?--Nicholas,"he said, speaking to the Lieutenant--"are our horses saddled?" |
37369 | You have, doubtless, had great experience?" |
37369 | You heard of this,--father?" |
37369 | You said you would be merry; shall we not have a song? |
37369 | You will spare me Garret, dame? |
37369 | You would have a peep at my aurum potabiles in dat little casket-- my multum in parvo? |
37369 | Your hand, Master Verdun-- I think so you said?" |
37369 | _ Martin._ And what is that? |
37369 | are we set upon, comrades?" |
37369 | exclaimed Dauntrees, with affected astonishment,"would you tarry to do your duty to Mistress Dorothy? |
37369 | exclaimed the Cripple, as a frown gathered on his brow;"what is he? |
37369 | exclaimed the Cripple;"what''s in the wind?" |
37369 | exclaimed the priest, with the alacrity of his native French temper, as he took the assailed damsel by the hand,"what have they to say against you? |
37369 | exclaimed the skipper,"you have lost no whit of that railing tongue I left with you at my last venture? |
37369 | inquired Dauntrees;"when have we the moon?" |
37369 | no hawk''s eye upon thy path?" |
37369 | or is that broken English of his more natural to the province than my plain speech, that he should claim the right to chide me for my behaviour? |
37369 | said Rob with a low- toned chuckle that shook his figure for some moments, and almost closed his eyes;"hath he not his court in the Chapel? |
37369 | said the Proprietary;"with what weapons?" |
37369 | she shouted at the top of her voice:"friends, are ye? |
37369 | that I can drive thee from the province as a vile outlaw? |
37369 | were the publican''s first words.--"Does she suspect us for a frisk to- night? |
37369 | what have I done to redden thy brow?" |
37369 | what was their success?" |
37369 | where do you come from?" |
37369 | why was I seduced upon this fool''s errand?" |
37369 | you pelieve yourself on a bank, up on a stage, before de rabble rout? |
5729 | A BRIDAL veil? |
5729 | Ai n''t she jist one fair clipper? |
5729 | All within twelve hours of New London, are n''t they? |
5729 | And YOUR name? |
5729 | And YOUR name? |
5729 | And the young man with her? |
5729 | And what is it you so wish to do, Filiola? |
5729 | And what is your name? |
5729 | And which is to be mine? |
5729 | And you are going to let me know you better, are n''t you, dear? |
5729 | And yours? |
5729 | Any more than YOU do, miss? |
5729 | Are you going to jump ship too, little captain? |
5729 | Are you in the habit of chasing whirlwinds? |
5729 | Are you prejudiced, my dear? |
5729 | But how do you expect to drive back all that distance with only one horse? 5729 But your companions?" |
5729 | Can you carry ALL OF US? |
5729 | Can you skate, Peggy? |
5729 | Could n''t you come out on the electric car every morning? |
5729 | Daddy, will you make a truce with me? |
5729 | Did n''t know I was an esquire, did you, Jerome? 5729 Did n''t she do it beautifully?" |
5729 | Do I look the maiden all forlorn as the result? |
5729 | Do you hear me? 5729 Do you mean to tell me that there are many as heedless and foolish as she is?" |
5729 | Do you think I am likely to? |
5729 | Do you want to sell Pepper too? |
5729 | Does n''t he make a perfectly darling girl, though? |
5729 | Eh? 5729 Eh? |
5729 | Fo''de Lawd''s sake, Miss Peggy, what yo''bown''fer ter do? 5729 Ginger? |
5729 | Golly, but she''s one breeze, ain''she, sah? |
5729 | Good Lord, where DO they all come from, Peggy? 5729 Have you any orders, miss, about her?" |
5729 | He is Julius, JUL- I- US, do you understand? |
5729 | How could he help it? |
5729 | How do you do, Mr. Bolivar? 5729 How do you know there are stockings there, anyway?" |
5729 | How does the tide set in that middle arch, coxswain? |
5729 | How''s that, Stewart? 5729 Howyo''gwine mak''dat colt drink?" |
5729 | I sign the truce, sweetheart, for one year, but I want a detailed report every week, do you understand? |
5729 | I wonder if I shall know a horse''s hock from his withers? 5729 I''d do anything, ANYTHING for you-- you know that, do n''t you?" |
5729 | In heaven''s name who IS that girl? |
5729 | Is he her brother? |
5729 | Is n''t he the dearest brother a girl ever had? |
5729 | It all sounds most enticing, but do you know I have another girl to think about? 5729 Kyant yo''just give her a hint dat yo''s a yo''ng lady and we- all''s mistiss?" |
5729 | Leave Severndale and all this and go away to a SCHOOL? |
5729 | May I really? |
5729 | Minerva, Minerva, HAVE you ordered your mourning? 5729 Mr. Dove, do you know a man named Steinberger?" |
5729 | My gracious, Peggy, do you nearly break your neck every time you take a fence? |
5729 | NOW will you try to get away from us? |
5729 | Not one? |
5729 | Now what yo''gwine do wid him, honey? |
5729 | Oh, Compadre, when did you come? 5729 Oh, HAVE you seen Pepper and Salt?" |
5729 | Oh, Peggy, is n''t it the dearest place you ever saw? |
5729 | Oh, Tanta, could n''t we make some sort of a bargain? 5729 Oh, Tanta, may I?" |
5729 | Oh, does n''t it make you just want to cry to see them? |
5729 | Oh, has anything happened to Salt, Dad? |
5729 | Oh, my bonny one, my bonny one, how can I send you away? |
5729 | Oh, ought I? |
5729 | Oh, there are so many we love best,she laughed,"that we''d never dare ask them all, would we, Polly?" |
5729 | Oh, would you really let me teach her? |
5729 | Peggy Stewart, why will you have so many good things all at once? 5729 Peggy, dear, can you enlighten us?" |
5729 | Playing OUT? 5729 Please, sah, wha''s his name ef taint Jule?" |
5729 | Salt? |
5729 | Shelby, Shelby, how did it happen? 5729 So this is heyday and holiday, dear heart, is it? |
5729 | Thank me? 5729 That bright red stone in the buckle; how can you consider THAT MOURNING? |
5729 | Them? |
5729 | Then you are exactly five months older than I am, are n''t you? |
5729 | Then you''re Miss Stewart from Severndale, ai n''t ye? |
5729 | Was this little person who talked in such a matter- of- fact way abouttaking on new hands"his little Peggy? |
5729 | Well what did you hope to get for her? |
5729 | Well, I guess I have, and are n''t they wonders? 5729 Well, what SHALL I do with you?" |
5729 | Well, why not? |
5729 | Well, you have a black skirt, but have you a waist and hat? 5729 What SHALL I do with all three of you?" |
5729 | What ails that blunderbuss? 5729 What are you hatching for your old Dad''s undoing, you witch?" |
5729 | What changed yours? |
5729 | What does Nell most need? |
5729 | What for? |
5729 | What has happened, son? |
5729 | What is it, Little Mother? |
5729 | What the mischief is he trying to do with that tub anyhow? |
5729 | What will the ladies say? |
5729 | What''s doing? 5729 What''s stirred you up, old man?" |
5729 | What? |
5729 | Where is home? |
5729 | Where is she? |
5729 | Who is Nell? |
5729 | Who said fried chicken? |
5729 | Who said we could n''t eat any more? |
5729 | Who says Severndale is n''t all right? |
5729 | Why who in this world can that little chap be? |
5729 | Why''m, ain''we jist right? 5729 Why, Minervy,"cried Peggy, really distressed,"How COULD you?" |
5729 | Why, what under the sun do you want, Happy? |
5729 | Will he really come? |
5729 | Will it not be possible for you and your aunt to grow very deeply attached to one another? 5729 Will they be good to you out yonder? |
5729 | Will you come to the carriage? |
5729 | Will you go into the market and get what you''d like from Mr. Bodwell? 5729 Wo n''t yo''jump, missie?" |
5729 | Would you mind calling me just Peggy? 5729 Yes, HOW old are you?" |
5729 | Yes, and you? |
5729 | Yes-- I''ll tell you later, but is n''t it too funny for words? |
5729 | You want me, miss? |
5729 | ''What''s done happen? |
5729 | Ai n''t she a clipper? |
5729 | An''Miss Peggy, honey, Johanna she gwine be ma bride''s maid, an''does yo''reckon yo''s got any ole finery what yo''kin giv''her? |
5729 | And Polly Howland? |
5729 | And how is the knee?" |
5729 | And is n''t she beautiful? |
5729 | And it is such a beauty, is n''t it? |
5729 | And on the old Olympia? |
5729 | And the Olympia''s personnel? |
5729 | And the eyes? |
5729 | And the handsome girl? |
5729 | And where the mischief do YOU come in on this show- down? |
5729 | And you would better buy a black veil; not crape, it is too perishable; get nun''s veiling, and--""Nun''s veilin''? |
5729 | And yours?" |
5729 | As Peggy and Polly looked out over the bay and up the river that perfect morning Peggy cried:"Oh, Polly COULD anything be lovelier than this day? |
5729 | As she ran up the four steps giving upon the lawn she asked half laughingly, half seriously:"Heavy weather, Daddy Neil? |
5729 | At first, Mrs. Howland was not aware of their absence, then becoming alive to it she asked:"Connie, dear, what has become of Aunt Janet and Polly?" |
5729 | Barometer falling?" |
5729 | But WHERE did he get those clothes? |
5729 | But WHO can she be?" |
5729 | But is n''t he a dear? |
5729 | But may I offer you something more? |
5729 | But please ma''am, is YO''a widder''oman? |
5729 | But who must decide the question, dear?" |
5729 | But you, my child? |
5729 | Ca n''t you hear me?" |
5729 | Can Minervy''s"mourning"be described? |
5729 | Can they spoil a girl? |
5729 | Can you join us?" |
5729 | Could n''t Peggy come to us three days of the week and work with Captain Pennell and me, and then I come out three to learn to ride?" |
5729 | Could n''t you have spread it out over several meals and let us have it on the instalment plan?" |
5729 | Could she, Polly, ever hope to do so? |
5729 | Could there, after all, have been any kindred drop of blood in their ancestry? |
5729 | De Empress daid? |
5729 | Did you coat the bit with the melted sugar as I told you?" |
5729 | Did you sell the other, or only lend him?" |
5729 | Do n''t you envy me? |
5729 | Do n''t you know Katherine? |
5729 | Do n''t you know me? |
5729 | Do n''t you love them, every inch of them, from the fighting top to the very anchor chains? |
5729 | Do n''t you want to come and see them?" |
5729 | Do what?" |
5729 | Do you hear?" |
5729 | Do you know they are to be entered in the horse- show and the steeple- chase this fall? |
5729 | Do you know what it means? |
5729 | Do you mean to tell me you wrote those letters''?" |
5729 | Do you want to yank me out of my coat?" |
5729 | Great, is n''t it?" |
5729 | Guarded? |
5729 | Harold?" |
5729 | Have n''t they any better sense than to let her clamber up on that rail?" |
5729 | Have they all been born since my last visit? |
5729 | Have you been teaching your girl navigation?" |
5729 | Have you ever seen a more magnificent figure? |
5729 | Have you lived here long, Miss Stewart?" |
5729 | Have you, too?" |
5729 | He knew perfectly well what to expect, but why that strange groaning and creaking? |
5729 | He say, please ma''am, come quick as Shazee kin fotch yo''fo''de Empress, she mighty bad an''--""What has happened to her, Bud?" |
5729 | He''s saying-- what''s that? |
5729 | House afire?" |
5729 | How about it?" |
5729 | How about too many names, old boy? |
5729 | How are you planning to see it?" |
5729 | How are you?" |
5729 | How could I a- been so light- minded?" |
5729 | How could they have been guilty of thus slighting their adored young mistress? |
5729 | How could they help it? |
5729 | How could we help it? |
5729 | How dey gwine know yo''s our young mist''ess? |
5729 | How did ye guess it?" |
5729 | How had she ever done it? |
5729 | How shall you get back to your place?" |
5729 | I ca n''t leave that child vegetating here any longer, yet who will come to live with her or where shall I send her?" |
5729 | I dare say you will think it odd, but my companions are mostly four- footed ones, though I am-- what shall I call it? |
5729 | I wonder if other girls''names can be twisted around into as many picture puzzles as mine can? |
5729 | I wonder if she would want a literally''broken''horse? |
5729 | I wonder why it IS so, Polly? |
5729 | I''ll never forget you and I wonder if I shall ever hear of you or see you again?" |
5729 | If so wisely ordered in some respects, why not in all? |
5729 | If so, where? |
5729 | Is it possible after all these years? |
5729 | Is n''t it pretty?" |
5729 | Is n''t it queer how just a little thing will sometimes turn your plans all around?" |
5729 | Is n''t she a beauty? |
5729 | Is there any end to my nicknames? |
5729 | Is this your carriage? |
5729 | Is yo''know de time?" |
5729 | It did not seem possible, yet how COULD two people look so alike and not have some kinship to account for it? |
5729 | It does n''t seem just right, does it?" |
5729 | It is a Russian wolfhound, is n''t it?" |
5729 | Kin YO''see de clock, Mis''Jones?" |
5729 | Let those lobsters from the''Chi''beat us out? |
5729 | Like the very dickens? |
5729 | MOST need? |
5729 | Ma Lawd, wha''Massa Neil gwine do to we- all when he hyar DAT? |
5729 | Most need? |
5729 | Mrs. Harold blushed like a girl as she asked:"Have my sins found me out?" |
5729 | Mrs. Harold pulled a love- lock as she answered:"You train your colts, girlie, and they are the better for their training, are n''t they?" |
5729 | Mrs. Harold smiled approvingly and Polly cried:"Yes, does n''t it? |
5729 | Must the old order of things which she so loved, and all the precious freedom of action, give way to something entirely new? |
5729 | Neil Stewart paused, looked at her a moment and asked abruptly:"Peggy, how would you like to go to a boarding school?" |
5729 | No? |
5729 | Nun''s veilin''?" |
5729 | Oh, Dad, did you know they could jump and run like that?" |
5729 | Oh, Shashai, Shashai, is thy heart reached only through thy stomach?" |
5729 | Oh, Shashai, will you never learn manners?" |
5729 | Oh, how did it?" |
5729 | Old Jerome who was serving her in the pretty delft breakfast- room took an old retainer''s privilege to ask:"What''musin''you, honey- chile?" |
5729 | Peggy, baby, what have you done with my little girl?" |
5729 | Please do n''t think me inquisitive, but would you mind telling me something about your horses? |
5729 | Poor little Peggy, how could she analyze it? |
5729 | Presently he asked Peggy:"Do you think you could handle a launch, little girl?" |
5729 | Pulling up her own span she said to Jess:"Oh, Jess, how CAN any one treat them so? |
5729 | Shall I call him?" |
5729 | Shall you ride cross or side? |
5729 | She must have slipped in while we were sound asleep, and oh, I do n''t wonder we slept after that dance, do you?" |
5729 | She--""What dat yo''tellin''me, baby? |
5729 | Shelby will bear me out in that, wo n''t you?" |
5729 | Should Peggy be sent to school? |
5729 | Slipping to his side she said:"Are n''t you proud to be the very first to wear it? |
5729 | Something doing? |
5729 | The admiral of the fleet, the captain and the officers straight down to the very stokers? |
5729 | The colt shook his head impatiently as though asking:"Wherefor the need? |
5729 | Then the young girl broke into a perfect ecstasy of delight as she cried:"Oh, how do you do it? |
5729 | Then, it changed suddenly as she asked:"But where is Doctor Claudius?" |
5729 | Then:"How do you do, Aunt Katharine? |
5729 | Thought you''d get off scot- free, did you? |
5729 | WE all do, do n''t we? |
5729 | Was not Daddy Neil beside her, and in her private opinion the finest looking officer present? |
5729 | We''ve got to get around that, have n''t we? |
5729 | Well why not? |
5729 | What do you call ten people besides yourself?" |
5729 | What do you say, sons?" |
5729 | What do you think? |
5729 | What fo''yo''bring Roy up hyer? |
5729 | What kill her?" |
5729 | What sort of people can they be, any way?" |
5729 | What was it in the girl''s voice which commanded obedience? |
5729 | What''s de matter? |
5729 | What''s that?" |
5729 | What''s the hour?" |
5729 | What? |
5729 | What? |
5729 | When breakfast ended Mrs. Harold said:"Can you young people give me about two hours out of your day? |
5729 | When did you do it? |
5729 | Where de Empress at?" |
5729 | Who had taught her to ride like that? |
5729 | Who under the sun would take his part? |
5729 | Who''gwine feed an''clothe and shelter dose pore lambs? |
5729 | Whoever taught ye?" |
5729 | Whom should he choose? |
5729 | Whose sons are you? |
5729 | Why does n''t he head inshore?" |
5729 | Why have we never known of Severndale? |
5729 | Why not? |
5729 | Why, Nelly, have you been ill?" |
5729 | Will they understand what a prize they have got? |
5729 | Will you come to the surrey?" |
5729 | Will you give me just one more year of this glorious freedom? |
5729 | Will you shake hands with me, miss? |
5729 | Will you wire your people that you''re going with us? |
5729 | Wonder if there are any more? |
5729 | Would n''t I have been ashamed of myself now?" |
5729 | Would you like to try Star, Miss Polly? |
5729 | Yet how solve the problem? |
5729 | Yo''gwine start hawsestealin''?" |
5729 | Yo''hear ME?" |
5729 | You and Tzaritza and Shashai? |
5729 | You dear, dear boy, were n''t you simply petrified when you saw that darling child plunge overboard? |
5729 | You mean ginger? |
5729 | _ I_ can put it into words, or sing it, but you two? |
5729 | _ I_''S a cullured person, but she''s jist pure nigger, yo''hyar me?" |
5729 | cared for? |
5729 | chaperoned? |
38477 | A disappointment then to the Thanefords? |
38477 | A week? |
38477 | About what time of the day was that? |
38477 | About what? |
38477 | Am I to pass or not? |
38477 | An accident? |
38477 | An assailant then? |
38477 | And that is your last word? |
38477 | And then? |
38477 | And was the second will, the one in my favor, also kept in this box? |
38477 | And when you again came to the library door Miss Trevor was standing there and Effingham was gone? |
38477 | And yet the cypher had certainly started to uncode; what could have thrown me off the track? 38477 Any marks of violence?" |
38477 | Any particular questions? |
38477 | Are you going to be at home within an hour or so? 38477 At Miss Trevor''s request?" |
38477 | At my return, or because I am seeking you out at the''Hundred?'' 38477 Brief?" |
38477 | But about the arrest? |
38477 | But afterwards? |
38477 | But how and why? |
38477 | But there is a door from the pantry into the short passage that leads to the library, is n''t there? |
38477 | But without the key- word where would you get off? |
38477 | But you would n''t put her down-- I mean on the strength of your general observation-- as predisposed to that sort of thing? |
38477 | By the way, have you dined? |
38477 | By whom? |
38477 | Can you assign a cause? |
38477 | Can you spare me a few moments? |
38477 | Can you walk? |
38477 | Cocaine powder? |
38477 | Could you tell how long? |
38477 | Did Eunice offer any objection to the change? |
38477 | Did anyone, besides Mr. Eldon, know that a later will-- the one in my favor-- had been made? |
38477 | Did he give you any reason to think that he did n''t know his own mind, or that the time would ever come when he would n''t know it? |
38477 | Did she ask you for anything? |
38477 | Did you ever hear,he asked,"that in his younger days Fielding Thaneford was considered to be an expert in the science of optics? |
38477 | Did you know of the master- key? |
38477 | Did you notice that no allusion was made, on either side, to that singular metal rest? |
38477 | Did you see him? |
38477 | Do n''t you see it in his face? |
38477 | Do you happen to recall the medical testimony given at the coroner''s inquest by Doctor Williams of John Hopkins? 38477 Do you make anything of it?" |
38477 | Do you mean for a visit? |
38477 | Do you mind opening up the room? |
38477 | Do you notice anything peculiar about those dates? |
38477 | Do you remember the story of Christian and his fellow pilgrim, Hopeful, imprisoned in Giant Despair''s stronghold of Doubting Castle? 38477 Do you remember,"she asked,"a series of numbers that I got from Mr. Thaneford the day he died?" |
38477 | Do you suppose that anyone else-- especially among the other servants-- knew about the master- key and where it was kept? |
38477 | Do you think I ought to go to the hearing and testify? |
38477 | Do you want to tell me what the numbers were? |
38477 | Five minutes perhaps? |
38477 | For example? |
38477 | For how long? |
38477 | For what purpose? |
38477 | Granting all your premises-- why? |
38477 | Had you ever noticed any premonitory signs-- you know what I am trying to say? |
38477 | Had you not been warned by Mr. Francis Graeme not to trespass upon his property? |
38477 | Has Mr. Eldon been acquainting you with the particulars of the family history? |
38477 | Have you any theory about the Sigma ray itself? |
38477 | He bought some article, or articles, from you? |
38477 | He wants to say something? |
38477 | His tardiness then excited no surprise? |
38477 | How about Effingham''s master- key; did you ever hear of it? |
38477 | How about Thaneford himself? |
38477 | How about it, Jem? |
38477 | How about the pridellas in the windows-- the little ventilating apertures? |
38477 | How about you? |
38477 | How can anyone say? 38477 How did Mr. Graeme''s matchbox come into your possession?" |
38477 | How do you know? 38477 How do you translate the cypher?" |
38477 | How does it strike you? |
38477 | How long have the Hildebrands been at the''Hundred''? |
38477 | How long were you away? |
38477 | How long were you in the house? |
38477 | How so? |
38477 | How so? |
38477 | How would_ you_ like it settled? |
38477 | I ca n''t read a word of it; what does it mean? |
38477 | I do n''t want to run any risk,I said,"How about coming back to- morrow to make a thorough job of it?" |
38477 | I found it in the road nearly opposite S. Saviour''s Church? |
38477 | I wonder how much he really knew about the whole affair? |
38477 | I wonder if you would mind spending a few days here at the''Hundred?'' |
38477 | I''m John Thaneford-- what then? |
38477 | Indenting? |
38477 | Is it John? |
38477 | Is that it? |
38477 | Is there any use in going on with the inquiry? |
38477 | Just what are the conditions under which exposures to the rays of the sun may be dangerous? 38477 Just what do you want?" |
38477 | Mis''Eunice, she done tole me to- gib''er----"The master- key? |
38477 | Mr. Graeme''s funeral? |
38477 | My dear Cousin Hugh, are you oblivious of the fact that this is the South, and that we are kin? |
38477 | Not necessarily caused by the blow on the temple? |
38477 | Nothing has been heard of John Thaneford, I suppose? |
38477 | Now tell me, you black scoundrel, where the secret door is? |
38477 | Now then, Hugh, do you see? |
38477 | Oh, then it was not in his immediate possession after all? |
38477 | On your second visit to the room? |
38477 | Or anybody else? |
38477 | Or perhaps you would prefer rye or bourbon? |
38477 | Or rather its effect upon the physical organism? |
38477 | Or would you be willing that Little Hugh should enter upon his inheritance with this cloud hanging over it? |
38477 | Possibly, you have forgotten that Betty is now my wife? |
38477 | Rather fortuitous, do n''t you think? 38477 Ready?" |
38477 | Remember that? |
38477 | Shall I have your traps sent over to the''Court?'' |
38477 | So that is what killed him? |
38477 | The making of the first will, or the fact that he had determined to alter it? |
38477 | The series of numbers, you mean? 38477 Then I''ll have to take the risk?" |
38477 | Then it did n''t occur to you that you might use the master- key? |
38477 | Then it is a perfectly plain case? |
38477 | Then it was no particular secret, the master- key and its hiding place? |
38477 | Then you did give it to Miss Eunice? |
38477 | Then you were in the house? |
38477 | Then, according to your theory, it is the Sigma ray which is the active lethal agent in sunlight? |
38477 | To whom? |
38477 | Was Eunice persistent in her endeavor to change Mr. Graeme''s resolution? |
38477 | Was Mr. John Thaneford aware that there had been a will drawn in his favor? |
38477 | Was there an autopsy? |
38477 | Well, how is this for an hypothesis? |
38477 | Well? |
38477 | Well? |
38477 | Well? |
38477 | Were you with Campion all the time he was in the house? |
38477 | What are you doing on this property? |
38477 | What did he mean then by stupefying you with whiskey, and placing you, bound and helpless, in the big swivel- chair? |
38477 | What did you buy of him? |
38477 | What did you do then? |
38477 | What do you say to our walking over there and making a reconnaissance? |
38477 | What do you suppose is the meaning of that contraption? |
38477 | What is the answer? |
38477 | What man? |
38477 | What more do you want of me? |
38477 | What new evidence? |
38477 | What next? |
38477 | What proof can you give that the article in question was lost and a reward offered for its return? |
38477 | What right had you to force such an issue? |
38477 | What sort of business? |
38477 | What then? |
38477 | What then? |
38477 | What time was that? |
38477 | What was it that killed all the Hildebrands throughout two generations? |
38477 | What was the ninth letter, the alphabetical rock upon which my fine theory had gone to pieces? 38477 What was there to say?" |
38477 | When Miss Eunice sent you up stairs to get the ammonia was she wearing any kind of a wrap? |
38477 | When and where? |
38477 | When did all this happen? |
38477 | When did that particular conversation take place? |
38477 | When? |
38477 | Where are you going? |
38477 | Where did Miss Trevor go? |
38477 | Where is he? |
38477 | Where is it? |
38477 | Where was Effingham? |
38477 | Where was I? 38477 Where was that box when you first came in the room and knelt by my-- my father?" |
38477 | Which implies that she must have paid a previous visit to the room and carried the box away? |
38477 | Which is it to be? |
38477 | Who is it then? |
38477 | Who is the man, and what were the circumstances of his arrest? |
38477 | Who knows? 38477 Who unlocked the library door when Doctor Marcy returned with my Cousin Betty?" |
38477 | Who was it that gave the alarm? |
38477 | Whuffer you pick on ole Effingham? |
38477 | Why did you disregard that injunction? |
38477 | Why not? |
38477 | Why should I be? |
38477 | Why should it be any more than with our own class? |
38477 | Why should n''t it have been the very combination we are looking for? |
38477 | Why the right- of- way? |
38477 | Why? |
38477 | Will you go on and tell me, Betty? |
38477 | Will you_ tell_ me? |
38477 | Would n''t they knock off for dinner at noon? 38477 Yardley and Randall and Horace and Richard, and Francis Graeme? |
38477 | Yes, and then? |
38477 | Yes, the Terror had entered the room; do n''t you recall how close I kept to the wall when I was trying to reach you? 38477 Yet you summoned enough courage to knock?" |
38477 | You are quite sure that Mr. Thaneford does n''t object? |
38477 | You don''t-- you do n''t mean? |
38477 | You got no reply to your knock? |
38477 | You knew that you were breaking the law? |
38477 | You mean about cutting out John and putting in Mr. Hugh Hildebrand? |
38477 | You mean that I must accept, or let everything go to the younger Thaneford? |
38477 | You mean that her death recalls the mystery of Francis Graeme''s taking off? |
38477 | You mean that you wo n''t keep your promise? |
38477 | You mean that you''ve had the funeral? |
38477 | You mean whiskey? |
38477 | You remember the day Marse Francis died? |
38477 | You say that you left Effingham to guard the library door while you went to meet my Cousin Betty? |
38477 | You wo n''t tell me? |
38477 | A pretty girl? |
38477 | Admitting the possibility that the ghost has not been truly laid, would you still insist upon remaining master of''Hildebrand Hundred''?" |
38477 | An atmosphere of heavenly peace and quiet that I must needs disturb with the blunt question:"And now what was it that killed John Thaneford?" |
38477 | And now he was lingering for that maddening hundredth part of a second over Betty''s hand; I heard him whisper:"The supper waltz then?" |
38477 | And what then?" |
38477 | And yet I knew that I had found a real clue; how in the world had I lost it again? |
38477 | And yet he was of her class; they must have been playmates from childhood, the Thaneford acres marched with the Hildebrand holdings-- why not? |
38477 | Are there any traps leading to the cellar, any scuttle- panels in the dome?" |
38477 | Are you ready, Eunice?" |
38477 | But I suppose that hypothesis is open to the same objection-- the continued presence of the two men who were mowing the lawn?" |
38477 | But how to find the key to the mystery? |
38477 | But surely if someone took the lead-- well, why not yourself?" |
38477 | But what sort of a purpose? |
38477 | By the way, you never received Betty''s telegram?" |
38477 | Cynical? |
38477 | Did you receive it?" |
38477 | Do you carry a watch?" |
38477 | Do you realize, by the way, that we are now on Thaneford property?" |
38477 | Do you recall how I kept close to the wall, so as to avoid getting in the path of the direct sunlight? |
38477 | Do you remember my speaking of the supreme distinction of her handclasp; how it seemed to fit so perfectly? |
38477 | Do you remember?" |
38477 | Do you understand?" |
38477 | Do you?" |
38477 | Eldon?" |
38477 | Exactly when?" |
38477 | Except one thing: Would it be a cloudy day? |
38477 | For perhaps half an hour we sat quietly thinking and smoking; then----"There is nothing I can say or do; understand?" |
38477 | For what could any sensible person make of THANECOUICDD- FKL? |
38477 | Graeme?" |
38477 | Has it ever been intimated to you that there was anything peculiar about the death of your cousin?" |
38477 | Have you ever suffered the unutterable pangs of jealousy, you who read these words? |
38477 | Honestly now, Hugh, do you think you would have been clever enough to have figured it out?" |
38477 | How could the Terror be always ready to strike, and yet, in one case at least, wait half a century for the opportunity? |
38477 | How do I know? |
38477 | How much did she know concerning the mystery of Francis Graeme''s death? |
38477 | I admit the justice of your censure, dear reader, but have you ever endured even the smallest pang of the jealous man''s agony? |
38477 | I do n''t suppose, Hugh, that I need to particularize any further in this direction?" |
38477 | I followed the direction of his glance, and read the initials in one corner--"J. T.""What do you make of it?" |
38477 | I murmured an unintelligible assent; what was coming now? |
38477 | Is n''t that so, doctor?" |
38477 | Is that true?" |
38477 | Is that what you had in mind?" |
38477 | Lovely view, is n''t it?" |
38477 | Miss Trevor had fainted----""When? |
38477 | Of course he must be speaking to somebody; who could it be? |
38477 | Only it''s curious----""Yes?" |
38477 | Or was he dead at that particular moment? |
38477 | Or was it that neither fact had any real relation to the death of Francis Graeme? |
38477 | Poor Eunice, you say, died here?" |
38477 | So the old man died?" |
38477 | Thaneford?" |
38477 | That is your idea?" |
38477 | The florists call it----""Yes?" |
38477 | Then came the reactionary thought:"But what can she be thinking of me?" |
38477 | Then she took the master- key from him----""Why did she wait so long?" |
38477 | Then, as though a bit ashamed of his boorishness, he added:"You will have no objection, I suppose, to my coming over to the''Hundred''to see him?" |
38477 | To what extent was she an accessory to the crime, if crime it could be proved? |
38477 | Understand?" |
38477 | Was it the accident of his falling and striking his head on that same iron box, or was he attacked from behind? |
38477 | Was the postern- door closed?" |
38477 | Well what was I to do? |
38477 | Well, what would have been the use? |
38477 | What had happened? |
38477 | What if five men had died, under unexplained circumstances, in that particular room? |
38477 | What more could the heart of man desire? |
38477 | What more do you want to know?" |
38477 | What particular article did you sell to Zack Cameron?" |
38477 | What possible hypothesis can we establish to account for Richard Hildebrand''s half century of immunity? |
38477 | What put you back on the track?" |
38477 | What sort of flowers did you cut on your visit to the garden?" |
38477 | What was I to do? |
38477 | What was the impression that was being made upon me? |
38477 | What word could it be but''Thane Court,''the ancestral home of the Thanefords? |
38477 | What would have been the use, since the line of communication had been broken? |
38477 | What''s the answer?" |
38477 | When was it that he hunted you up in Philadelphia?" |
38477 | Where is it?" |
38477 | Where on earth does the company procure such tasteless provender? |
38477 | Where was that iron despatch- box when you first entered the room, and saw-- well, what you saw?" |
38477 | Which was the predetermining cause, and which was the final effect? |
38477 | Who is the coroner, Doctor Marcy?" |
38477 | Who knows....""What?" |
38477 | Why had I never realized before that, in spite of my urban upbringing, I was a born countryman? |
38477 | Why is it that smiles and tears lie so close together in the lilt and swing of a fine waltz tune? |
38477 | Why? |
38477 | Why? |
38477 | Why?" |
38477 | Will you come back to dinner this evening?" |
38477 | Yes, and I would have accepted it like everyone else-- only for one thing----""Yes?" |
38477 | Yet why should I feel any particular degree of surprise? |
38477 | You are willing?" |
38477 | You have heard of''coke''?" |
38477 | _ Where was that despatch- box when I first entered the room and found Francis Graeme lying dead upon the floor?_ I do n''t know, do you?" |
38477 | _ Where was that despatch- box when I first entered the room and found Francis Graeme lying dead upon the floor?_ I do n''t know, do you?" |
38477 | a telegram? |
38477 | what''s that?" |
46195 | ''Puddin''Tame''? |
46195 | ''Where do you live?'' |
46195 | A julep? 46195 About Danton and the possibility of a duel?" |
46195 | About your wedding, old man? |
46195 | Above mine? 46195 After all, are you so_ very_ old?" |
46195 | Am I the man, may I ask? |
46195 | And Aunty Landis? |
46195 | Any man? 46195 Are they engaged?" |
46195 | Are you angry with me about anything? |
46195 | Are you awfully disappointed? 46195 Are you dodging?" |
46195 | Are you looking for me? |
46195 | Are you''tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor''? |
46195 | Aw, who said it was? 46195 Betty, are you awake?" |
46195 | Betty,he said,"do you mind my remarking that you look adorable to- day?" |
46195 | Betty,he said,"has it yet occurred to you that you are really my wife?" |
46195 | But I understood their falling- out was due to outside influence-- wasn''t it? |
46195 | But what can you expect of a man who''s never been on the Eastern Shore? |
46195 | But why should n''t I carry you into the house? |
46195 | But_ why_ did you do it-- masquerade in the Landis farmhouse? 46195 By whom?" |
46195 | Can you see the compass? |
46195 | Charlie Danton? 46195 Did any one ever tell you that you talk as a prima donna ought to talk, but never does--''soft, gentle, and low''?" |
46195 | Did n''t I say? 46195 Did you call me, Bob White?" |
46195 | Did you dream for a moment I would n''t? |
46195 | Did you sleep well? |
46195 | Did you stock the_ Wisp_ for a polar expedition, Bob White? |
46195 | Disobedient? |
46195 | Do n''t you? |
46195 | Do you deny that you have an appointment with some one near here? |
46195 | Do you know about Miss Yarnell? |
46195 | Do you know, Bob White, I''ve often thought it would be delightful to sail like this with a ra- ther good- looking-- comrade? |
46195 | Do you know, I made a remark something like that to Miss Yarnell the other day, and she took it quite seriously? |
46195 | Do you like me-- my clothes, I mean? |
46195 | Do you see the dunes there-- the second hill? 46195 Do you think that sort of arrangement is dignified?" |
46195 | Does the foot hurt? |
46195 | Does the poor boy want a bite to eat? |
46195 | Eh? 46195 From Sandywood Station?" |
46195 | Good!--but what? |
46195 | Have n''t I told you about my teacher? 46195 Have you a pistol?" |
46195 | Have you been waiting long? |
46195 | Have you finished? 46195 Have you hurt yourself, dearie? |
46195 | His district? |
46195 | How are we heading? |
46195 | How could she guess? |
46195 | How do you know it was n''t about this very thing? |
46195 | How is the sprained ankle? 46195 How''s the foot?" |
46195 | Hum- m."Can you say as much? |
46195 | I frightened you, did n''t I? 46195 I''m not welcome, then?" |
46195 | If I tell you that, will you tell me why you wo n''t take me? |
46195 | If we reach Cape Hatteras in the dark like this-- abruptly-- what will happen? |
46195 | In three days? |
46195 | Is any man foolish enough to decline an invitation from you? |
46195 | Is it a game you want to play, kiddy? |
46195 | Is n''t it about time to come about? |
46195 | Is that a compliment? |
46195 | Is that all? |
46195 | It isn''t-- very likely, is it? |
46195 | Land? 46195 Madge and Charlie Danton,"she went on--"do you think they''re really in love? |
46195 | Marry her? 46195 May I ask_ what_ wo n''t do?" |
46195 | May I come to- morrow evening to see how you''re getting on? |
46195 | Miss Yarnell? |
46195 | Must I ask you again? 46195 Not Landis?" |
46195 | Not if I bent''on bended knee''to you? |
46195 | Now we are in the pirates''den,said Betty,"and that log is a treasure- chest full of-- of what?" |
46195 | Of him? |
46195 | Oh, yoah daughtah? 46195 One at each end-- do you see, Polly? |
46195 | Only to- day? |
46195 | Phidias? |
46195 | Please take me with you when you go sailing this afternoon? |
46195 | Rather lively, was n''t it? 46195 Really? |
46195 | Really? |
46195 | Sandywood? |
46195 | Shall we bring the luncheon? |
46195 | She eyed me in that brooding, blazing way of hers-- you remember how she looked when she tried to ride over us on the road the other day? |
46195 | She was outside? |
46195 | She''s rather a headlong sort, do n''t you think? |
46195 | The envelope? 46195 The handsome cousin Polly spoke of the other day?" |
46195 | The ocean? |
46195 | The other ankle, then? |
46195 | Then it was real? |
46195 | Then you admit-- that I do n''t? |
46195 | Then you intend to sail off again to-- to do what you like? |
46195 | Then you''re Elizabeth Cary-- the Miss Cary of Baltimore that people made such a fuss about when you came out last year--''the''Cary of''the''Carys? |
46195 | There may not be any harm_ yet_, but wo n''t there be? |
46195 | Thieves? |
46195 | To put me ashore? |
46195 | Was it as near a thing as that? |
46195 | Was she afraid of the pirate chief? |
46195 | Well? |
46195 | Were you making fun of me, Mr. Puddin''Tame? |
46195 | What did she mean? |
46195 | What do you think of the cook? |
46195 | What is it? |
46195 | What is it? |
46195 | What is your pleasure? |
46195 | What the devil do you mean? |
46195 | What was that I heard? |
46195 | What was that? 46195 What''s her name?" |
46195 | What''s the matter? |
46195 | What''s up, Miss Yarnell? |
46195 | What? 46195 Where are we bound?" |
46195 | Where did you get this gorgeous dinner- set? |
46195 | Where did you learn Emerson? |
46195 | Where do you live? 46195 Where''s Betty?" |
46195 | Which way did you say she went? |
46195 | Who is it, then? |
46195 | Who would n''t be kind to you, Betty? 46195 Who''s there?" |
46195 | Who''s to go? |
46195 | Who? |
46195 | Who? |
46195 | Why bother with the sloop? |
46195 | Why not? |
46195 | Why''celebrated''rather than''beautiful''or''stunning''or downright''handsome''? |
46195 | Why''celebrated,''Miss Yarnell? |
46195 | Why? |
46195 | Will there be a picnic, really? |
46195 | Will you be afraid to face a head sea going home, Betty? |
46195 | Will you come, then, at half- past six? |
46195 | Will you marry me, Betty? |
46195 | Will you promise to wake me in an hour? 46195 With me?" |
46195 | With whom? |
46195 | Would you like to go over her? |
46195 | Yes, that''s so-- even for you? |
46195 | You are n''t bashful, are you, Mr. Puddin''Tame? |
46195 | You did? 46195 You do n''t know Baltimore, then?" |
46195 | You do n''t suppose she''ll think we''re drowned? 46195 You mean that Madge Yarnell ran away with Charlie Danton, and solved the problem?" |
46195 | You''ll be sure to wake me soon? |
46195 | You''ll dog me across country? |
46195 | You''re going back? |
46195 | You''re really married? |
46195 | You''re the man, ai n''t you? 46195 You''ve never been on the Eastern Shore before?" |
46195 | You''ve talked to her-- as Danton talked to me? |
46195 | You-- that dreadful knife!--you are n''t hurt? |
46195 | You? |
46195 | Your wife? |
46195 | A drop of water? |
46195 | A man who helped me make fast the_ Wisp_ says this is Currituck Sound, and the city(?) |
46195 | A_ billet doux_ already?" |
46195 | Am I rushing in where angels fear to tread?" |
46195 | And did Madge Yarnell''s peculiar conduct have any connection with the matter? |
46195 | And do you know that for the last two or three days I''ve been thinking I''d give my hope of salvation to sail like this with Betty Landis?" |
46195 | And even if she did, what is it to her?" |
46195 | And impertinent Harry Cleborne? |
46195 | And what''s this cunning cubby- hole between the rooms?" |
46195 | Are n''t you talking about her?" |
46195 | Are you a witch?" |
46195 | Are you content?" |
46195 | Are you tired?" |
46195 | Betty, what do you know about her?" |
46195 | Betty, who taught you to dress like that?" |
46195 | Betty? |
46195 | Bob White, do you know it was only the day before yesterday you picked me out of the brook?" |
46195 | Bob White, you have n''t come around here like a Romeo to-- to say good- by, have you?" |
46195 | But how do you know that? |
46195 | But is she old enough-- is she in a position-- to understand?" |
46195 | But is there any harm in that?" |
46195 | But what if I have? |
46195 | But what reason can there be except that I do n''t care to risk your life in a boat I know nothing about?" |
46195 | But what will Betty say?" |
46195 | But what''s the reason?" |
46195 | But why did you pretend?" |
46195 | But, Betty, why tell a tarradiddle, even to get rid of her?" |
46195 | By the way, where did you learn French? |
46195 | Ca n''t I do something?" |
46195 | Ca n''t you see it?" |
46195 | Can you came down a minute?" |
46195 | Can you imagine why she pursued me so? |
46195 | Can you-- mean what you say?" |
46195 | Cresap?" |
46195 | Critic?" |
46195 | DEAR MR. PUDDIN''TAME: Shall we have it for a secret that you''re coming to supper at our house to- morrow? |
46195 | Dear-- will you kiss me?" |
46195 | Did you know that?" |
46195 | Do n''t I know it''s a nickname? |
46195 | Do n''t you like it?" |
46195 | Do n''t you see?" |
46195 | Do they teach that in the''little red- roofed schoolhouse''in Maryland?" |
46195 | Do you ask me?" |
46195 | Do you know anything about her?" |
46195 | Do you know what it is?" |
46195 | Do you mind my asking who your mother was, Betty?" |
46195 | Do you remember it? |
46195 | Do you see that cape two or three points south of east? |
46195 | Do you see that little oil- stove, there? |
46195 | Do you suppose she really recognized your writing paper? |
46195 | Do you think you can drink a cup of hot coffee?" |
46195 | Do you think you can get away?" |
46195 | Do you think you''re strong enough to hold the wheel, Betty?" |
46195 | Does n''t he dare show himself?" |
46195 | Fessenden?" |
46195 | For how long?" |
46195 | Have you broken your leg?" |
46195 | Have you everything you want? |
46195 | Have_ I_ done anything?" |
46195 | Her and you- all come togethah, did n''t yo''?" |
46195 | His friends on the big yacht? |
46195 | Hot coffee? |
46195 | How would Madge Yarnell judge him? |
46195 | I give you my word I never dreamed of a trick-- who would?" |
46195 | I mean, do you think their love will last?" |
46195 | I''m afraid you''ll be sick-- and then what should I do?" |
46195 | If you had n''t screamed in time----""Did I scream?" |
46195 | Is it anything important?" |
46195 | Is it your ankle, dearie? |
46195 | Is n''t it fair you should have confidence in me, a little?" |
46195 | Is n''t she the girl who tore down the flag?" |
46195 | Is n''t that so?" |
46195 | Is n''t this just too tiresome? |
46195 | Is she waving at us, do you think?" |
46195 | Is that yo''all, Miss Betty? |
46195 | It''s our marriage certificate, is n''t it?" |
46195 | Madam, may I ask if he is so attractive that you wish he had come instead of me?" |
46195 | Mr. Thomas Fessenden, do you realize that you signed that document some twelve hours ago and did n''t even read the name just above your own?" |
46195 | Near here anywhere?" |
46195 | No? |
46195 | North is where that mark is, is n''t it? |
46195 | Not a man, but_ you_?" |
46195 | Now do you understand why I want to go with you?--why I_ must_ go?" |
46195 | Or is it a joke?" |
46195 | Perhaps you''re in his confidence?" |
46195 | Pinck, why_ did n''t_ you remind me? |
46195 | Please, what''s your name?" |
46195 | Say, Mister, ai n''t your name Puddin''Tame?" |
46195 | Say, ai n''t you Puddin''Tame?" |
46195 | She was almost a child, true; but was she near enough to childhood to be beyond the breath of scandal? |
46195 | That''s rather-- pronounced, is n''t it?" |
46195 | Then what in the world has become of-- of-- ah--""Of a certain other lady?" |
46195 | Then whom could his dark hints be about? |
46195 | Trust you? |
46195 | Was n''t it perfectly shameless?" |
46195 | Was she merely whimsical, he wondered, or had she acted with a motive? |
46195 | Was the Virginian a subtle joker, acting at the instigation of Polly or Mrs. Dick? |
46195 | We can all go honeymooning together, eh, Madge? |
46195 | We''re through supper by half- past seven, and----""Supper?" |
46195 | Well,_ were_ you afraid-- afterward?" |
46195 | What could he do? |
46195 | What could that idiot, Cleborne, have been driving at in his talk of Betty? |
46195 | What did that mean?" |
46195 | What did these things mean? |
46195 | What do you see, Little Brighteyes?" |
46195 | What in the world is all this about?" |
46195 | What is it? |
46195 | What was the fellow talking about? |
46195 | What will she do?" |
46195 | What would thoughtless Polly Cresap say when she learned that he and the farmer''s pretty daughter were not drowned after all? |
46195 | What''s come over you?" |
46195 | What''s that? |
46195 | What''s the matter?" |
46195 | What''s up?" |
46195 | What_ is_ all this? |
46195 | Where is he? |
46195 | Who are you, I say?" |
46195 | Who are you? |
46195 | Who was she?" |
46195 | Why did you do that? |
46195 | Why do you want so much to go?" |
46195 | Why?" |
46195 | Will you put a cushion under it for me?" |
46195 | Will you? |
46195 | Will-- will you kiss me?" |
46195 | Wo n''t you''light down, ma''am?" |
46195 | Would the intimacy wrought of the night''s peril and companionship avail? |
46195 | Would you care to come to supper with us, really?" |
46195 | Yo''''member Jersey Molly, Miss Betty? |
46195 | Yoah friends beat you- all consid''abul, did n''t they?" |
46195 | You are n''t afraid?" |
46195 | You are n''t vexed with me still, are you?" |
46195 | You did n''t see her at Sandywood Station, did you, Tom? |
46195 | You did?" |
46195 | You did?" |
46195 | You heard what Pinckney Cresap said just now?" |
46195 | You know it, of course?" |
46195 | You mean you think I ought to marry her?" |
46195 | You''ll meet me there, honest Injun, Betty?" |
46195 | You''re a Marylander, then?" |
46195 | You''re a Northern man, are n''t you?" |
46195 | You-- married? |
46195 | You_ did_ steal away, did n''t you, ve- ry quietly?" |
46195 | demanded Cleborne,"Betty?" |
46195 | do n''t I know that smile? |
22113 | A Southern ranch? |
22113 | A responsibility, Aunt Katherine? |
22113 | Ai n''t they a- goin''with you, Miss Peggy? |
22113 | An''what_ she_ been a- sayin''ter yo''? |
22113 | And Rosalie? 22113 And do you expect to cling to childish habits all your days, Peggy dear? |
22113 | And do you suppose there can ever be anything like it again? |
22113 | And have I ever ordered any changes made in her rules? |
22113 | And what, may I inquire, is your very worst then? 22113 And you really raised those splendid horses yourself? |
22113 | Are n''t we to wait until Daddy Neil comes back? |
22113 | Are n''t you even going to tell Polly? |
22113 | Are they to go to the hop? |
22113 | Are you apprehensive of her becoming so? |
22113 | Are you ready, Aunt Katherine? |
22113 | Are_ ours_ abused, Polly? |
22113 | Assembly? 22113 At stake? |
22113 | At what time do you start? |
22113 | But how did you know she wished you? |
22113 | But when will they learn about their leave? 22113 But why do you call him by that absurd name? |
22113 | But, Mrs. Harold, are n''t first classmen really-- well-- don''t they come in for greater privileges? 22113 Ca n''t the boys ever get leave to visit their friends?" |
22113 | Ca n''t you and Peggy give it to us on a small scale? 22113 Could n''t she have telephoned? |
22113 | Could n''t ye just knot hup them tails a bit, and mebbe braid that fly- away mane down along the crest? 22113 Do n''t you think Juno Gibson is handsome?" |
22113 | Do you always give them sugar? 22113 Do you mean to say they understand and will really bring Jess here?" |
22113 | Do you really wish me to show you something of their intelligence, Mrs. Vincent? 22113 Do you think I''m going to let this side- wheeler shipwreck me? |
22113 | Do you think they always live up to the agreement? |
22113 | Do you think we are a lot of crazy schoolboys and expect to settle our disagreements with a regular fist- a- cuff bout? 22113 Do you want to try it again?" |
22113 | Does Polly know? |
22113 | Eh? 22113 Going in for the trapeze? |
22113 | Had he seen the cab? |
22113 | Has she ever attacked anyone before, Peggy? |
22113 | Have I been a responsibility to you since you came here? 22113 Have you ever had a_ boy_ cover your hands with kisses?" |
22113 | Honest? |
22113 | How about Stella Drummond? |
22113 | How long have you been observing this wonderful wonder? |
22113 | How many five- stripers are there? |
22113 | How''d I know, Mist''ss? 22113 I wonder why not?" |
22113 | If I go to the Columbia Heights School what will Ralph say? 22113 If you had no other, what could you do?" |
22113 | Is n''t it funny you girls never saw him while you were at Severndale? |
22113 | Is n''t it good just to be alive on such a day? |
22113 | Making a list of all your dances and Christmas frolicings, little- er- ahem--, Miss? |
22113 | Miss Howland, what was the cause of the wild shrieks which disturbed me a moment since? 22113 Occupy_ this_ suite?" |
22113 | Oh, Daddy, did you really meet Mrs. Harold and Polly, and who was with them? |
22113 | Oh, Polly, will you? 22113 Oh, are they such, wonders as all that?" |
22113 | Oh, are you a- speakin''to me, ma''am? |
22113 | Oh, how did you make them do it? 22113 Oh, indeed? |
22113 | Oh, my bonny one, how could you? |
22113 | Oh, was he a man? 22113 Oh, what is it all about?" |
22113 | Oh, what is it? 22113 Oh, who does it? |
22113 | Oh,_ where_ did they come from? |
22113 | Peggy, how_ can_ you have such a savage creature near you? 22113 Polly, what happened?'' |
22113 | Poor Tzaritza, you did what you believed to be your duty, did n''t you? 22113 Poor Tzaritza, you got into trouble because I lost my temper, did n''t you? |
22113 | Shall I? |
22113 | Shall you go home at Easter? |
22113 | Snap says he''s just wise to everything, and did you ever see anything so absurd as those clown tricks the jackies taught him? |
22113 | So you have come into the school to set its standards and correct its shortcomings, have you? 22113 Suppose we did shout and screech? |
22113 | Tanta,asked Polly,"do you know that Lily Pearl Montgomery and Helen Doolittle are here at Wilmot with Helen''s uncle? |
22113 | Those wavering, clear, electric beams, Who''ll guess how much their message means? 22113 To win and hold a love so pure, A faith so stanch, so strong, so sure-- To gain a confidence so rare-- What honors can with these compare? |
22113 | Understanda horse? |
22113 | Well, we''re_ here_,was Polly''s undisputable statement as she snuggled down under her bed- covers,"and now that we are what do you think of it?" |
22113 | Well, what is it to be this morning? |
22113 | What I gwine do wid all dis hyer truck, Missie- honey? |
22113 | What dat yo''say? 22113 What did you say to her, baby?" |
22113 | What for? 22113 What is it, Polly?" |
22113 | What is it-- Little Mother? |
22113 | What is this? |
22113 | What time are we to go to Severndale tomorrow, Little Mother? |
22113 | What you a- talking about, you little fool nigger? |
22113 | What''s brought you down here, honey? |
22113 | What''s that? |
22113 | What''s the matter? 22113 Where is Helen tonight?" |
22113 | Where is John? |
22113 | Where''s Jess? |
22113 | Which, the midshipmen or the stripes? |
22113 | Why did n''t you tell me you''d never ridden? |
22113 | Why do they start at night? |
22113 | Why must they rush back on the very minute? |
22113 | Why not? 22113 Why, he wants you and the Little Mother and Durand and Ralph and Jean and Gordon--""Gordon?" |
22113 | Why, what do you mean, Helen? |
22113 | Why? 22113 Will a fish swim?" |
22113 | Will they stand like that without being tied? |
22113 | Would you really like to know, dear? 22113 Yes, are n''t they just the dearest ever? |
22113 | Yes, it is exceedingly damp today, but do you think we ought to allow externals to affect us? |
22113 | Yes, what_ did_ she want? |
22113 | _ Are n''t_ we doing something? 22113 _ Not yet?_"emphasized Miss Sturgis. |
22113 | A lump of sugar awaited each obedient animal, and Jess asked:"What yo''wantin''ob Jess, baby- honey?" |
22113 | A real_ man_? |
22113 | Ai n''t she done come in fer her breckfus yit? |
22113 | Am_ I_ all wrong, or is Aunt Katherine different from everybody else? |
22113 | An''ma chile gotter wait a hull hour pas''her breckfus time jist kase Madam Fussa- ma- fiddle ai n''t choose fer ter git up? |
22113 | And Juno? |
22113 | And Nelly? |
22113 | And all the others, too? |
22113 | And big? |
22113 | And if they are to go out to Severndale tonight how will they manage?" |
22113 | And that west wing and its contents? |
22113 | And was n''t Tzaritza regal with Rhody?" |
22113 | And was the experiment a red letter one? |
22113 | And what of Nelly? |
22113 | And who''s taken Gumshoe''s place this year? |
22113 | And you surely do not think I do it to invite observation? |
22113 | And you''re out for basketball too? |
22113 | Are n''t we encouraging him and helping on a good show?" |
22113 | Are you ready for your breakfast, Aunt Katherine?" |
22113 | Are you so very superior to your companions-- you and your protà © gà © e?" |
22113 | As he settled Rosalie in her seat he asked:"How many Miss Boylstons have you got at Columbia Heights?" |
22113 | Bol''var?" |
22113 | But are_ you_ going to dust?" |
22113 | But had she ever given that fact a serious thought? |
22113 | But what is wrong, Miss Peggy? |
22113 | But what under the sun did Mrs. Vincent want of you, Peggy?" |
22113 | CHAPTER XV IN SPRING TERM"Well, we all came back to earth with a thud, did n''t we? |
22113 | Ca n''t we go right out there?" |
22113 | Ca n''t_ you_ show me how, Dawson? |
22113 | Can they all do that? |
22113 | Did he say yes? |
22113 | Did he wear a moustache? |
22113 | Did n''t it take you forever and ever to teach them? |
22113 | Did she"understand"those in her stable? |
22113 | Did they"love"her? |
22113 | Did you notice it, girls?" |
22113 | Did your ears burn this afternoon, Peggy? |
22113 | Did your father find it out, and what did he say?" |
22113 | Do Peggy and Polly resemble''meal sacks?'' |
22113 | Do n''t you perfectly dote on her girls? |
22113 | Do n''t you think the study of one''s fellow beings intensely interesting?'' |
22113 | Do you know what it will mean if I report you at Annapolis? |
22113 | Do you remember Fräulein Shultz who was here the first year school opened, Marjorie?" |
22113 | Do you think she will tell me?" |
22113 | Do you understand it?" |
22113 | Does n''t she seem an awful lot older than the rest of us? |
22113 | Find the outlook inspiring?" |
22113 | Good Lord, are you going to let drive with a gatling? |
22113 | Great Scott, do you think I''m going to let_ this_ beat me out, or that yelling mob out yonder see me put out of commission? |
22113 | Had Helen''s cousin returned, but when? |
22113 | Had she miscalculated the depth of the pool after all? |
22113 | Has she become incapable of voluntary locomotion?" |
22113 | Have you ever seen one_ do_ it?" |
22113 | Have you lost your ability to sit at the head of my table, daughter?" |
22113 | Have you never heard them? |
22113 | Have you no street cleaning department in your illustrious city?" |
22113 | Have you not done a great deal for them? |
22113 | Her father? |
22113 | How about it? |
22113 | How am I ever to be a co- ed in Annapolis and a pupil here at the same time? |
22113 | How are you, Doctor? |
22113 | How did you come out in Math and Mech? |
22113 | How do you keep them so ravishingly white and your nails so absolutely faultless? |
22113 | How far ahead do you reckon they are?" |
22113 | How is Lily?" |
22113 | How many women ever think of doing so? |
22113 | How under the sun came I here?" |
22113 | How would it fit with skirts all bunched up under it? |
22113 | How would it seem to have no Severndale to run out to? |
22113 | Howsoever, some folks seem to think they have, and what I am trying to get at is,_ have they_? |
22113 | I know her and she knows me, do n''t you, old girl?" |
22113 | I wish I were that Indian- Chinese- Jap god, what''s his name? |
22113 | I wonder why?" |
22113 | If you wish to know why I carried Helen out of the room I did it because she was running--""Doing what? |
22113 | Is n''t it about time you began to think about growing up? |
22113 | Is n''t it always better to believe a person honest until we prove him a thief, than to go the other way about it? |
22113 | Is n''t that too good to believe?" |
22113 | Is that what you say down here?" |
22113 | Is there a weak face among them? |
22113 | It was all said half- jestingly, half- seriously, but Juno gave her head a superior little toss as she answered:"And go looking like a meal sack? |
22113 | It was jist gwine ter make some of dem pots bile over if it had a- kep''on, yo''hyer me? |
22113 | July, August, and, let me see, twenty- five days of September since I left you? |
22113 | Just as a sample of what we may hear some day? |
22113 | Just then Mammy Lucy stuck her white- turbaned head in at the door to ask:"Whar dat chile at? |
22113 | Keep Tzaritza out of the house and relegate the Sultana to the servant''s quarters? |
22113 | Kingdom- come, is yo''think I''se come ter ma dotage? |
22113 | Let''s see, which have we had most to do with since we came here twenty- four hours ago? |
22113 | Lily, did the milliner put the trimming on the box and forget to send home the hat?" |
22113 | Llewellyn?" |
22113 | Llewellyn?" |
22113 | Llewellyn?" |
22113 | Mammy, is Aunt Katherine ready?" |
22113 | May I walk to the gate with her?" |
22113 | Mrs. Stewart laughed a low, incredulous laugh, then queried:"And you the daughter of Neil Stewart and a little Navy girl? |
22113 | Mrs. Stewart looked about her in undisguised disappointment and asked:"Is_ this_ the capital city of the State of Maryland? |
22113 | Mrs. Vincent had more than once said to herself:"Well, I certainly have four oddities to deal with:_ Who_ is Marjorie? |
22113 | Mrs. Vincent nodded forgiveness, then turning to Stella, asked:"Were you here all the time, Stella?" |
22113 | Mrs. Vincent smiled as she slipped an arm across Polly''s shoulder and asked:"Are you to be my newest girl? |
22113 | My Lawd, what done possess Massa Neil fer ter''vite her down hyer? |
22113 | My little girl, my little girl, have you needed Daddy Neil as much as this?" |
22113 | My little girl, will you accept some suggestions regarding your toilet?" |
22113 | No Peggy to pop into Middie''s Haven? |
22113 | No boon companion to ride, walk, drive, skate with, or lead the old life which they had both so loved? |
22113 | Now that''s the limit, ai n''t it? |
22113 | Now, Polly, what is it?" |
22113 | Of course, it is all wounded pride and affection, but who is to correct it? |
22113 | Oh, which girls are you going to invite? |
22113 | Oh, why ca n''t the parents think of the children they have brought into the world but who did not ask to come? |
22113 | Or dream the wondrous tale they tell? |
22113 | Or was it something in the fine, strong face which children and animals in common all trust with subtle intuition? |
22113 | Pardon me if I make a note of it, and-- and--_how_ do you spell accomplished, Captain Stewart? |
22113 | Peggy and Polly flew to him crying:"Did he say yes? |
22113 | Peggy asked:"Are our horses ready, Dawson?" |
22113 | Peggy slipped her arm about her and asked:"What makes you look so sober, Nellibus?" |
22113 | Peggy was not ungrateful, but what had befallen the usual order of things? |
22113 | Peggy, has she ever been separated from you before, dear?" |
22113 | Peggy, were n''t you petrified when you struck''eight bells''at the hop, for the death of the old year? |
22113 | Poor little Nelly Bolivar would have been a modest, sleek little Junco compared with the birds of paradise(? |
22113 | Rate more? |
22113 | Sat on a pin?" |
22113 | Say, how is it to get out of my coat, Bantam?" |
22113 | Shall I hail him?" |
22113 | Shall I say anything to Shelby?" |
22113 | Shall I tell you the message the flashes carry? |
22113 | She might be Polly''s and Peggy''s friend-- well and good-- but who was she? |
22113 | Slipping an arm about each girl as they sat beside her she asked:"What do you think of our horses, and of Dawson? |
22113 | So now smiling across the table she said:"So you have decided to consider my suggestion, Neil?" |
22113 | So you accept the bargain? |
22113 | Stella, is your chafing- dish ready?" |
22113 | That you never have and never could do anything to invite criticism? |
22113 | The following Tuesday was Hallow E''en and where is your school- girl who does not revel in its privileges? |
22113 | The horse''s well- being or mine? |
22113 | The next second she was holding Peggy in her arms and almost sobbing herself as she besought her to tell"who done hurt ma baby? |
22113 | Then Peggy asked:"What do you think of the girls? |
22113 | Then after a moment she resumed:"O Shashai, what_ is_ the matter with everything? |
22113 | Then she asked:"Wo n''t your father come East this spring for commencement? |
22113 | Then the self- elected dictator spoke:"Peggy, dear, are you not to drive with me?" |
22113 | Then with a guileless smile remarked:"Now you do n''t sesso? |
22113 | There are-- how many of us? |
22113 | There was a slight pause, in which Juno gave an impatient toss of her handsome head and asked in a bitterly ironical voice:"Are they? |
22113 | This year''s? |
22113 | To be"loved"by one? |
22113 | Turn her over to your discipline, or crush her with one snap of my jaws?" |
22113 | Twenty- four? |
22113 | Understand?" |
22113 | Vincent?" |
22113 | Was n''t she the limit? |
22113 | What are they trying to do now?" |
22113 | What could she do alone? |
22113 | What do they mean?" |
22113 | What does become of all the children of divorced parents in this land of divorces? |
22113 | What is it for? |
22113 | What is likely to become of_ her_, poor child? |
22113 | What is to become of that little pepper pot with all her loving impulses and self- will? |
22113 | What makes you so tight with your news, any way? |
22113 | What more could a conscientious school Principal ask of her riding master? |
22113 | What possessed the woman to antagonize everyone with whom she came in touch? |
22113 | What was the meaning of it? |
22113 | What''s at stake, Little Mother?" |
22113 | What''s rattled you like this? |
22113 | What? |
22113 | What?" |
22113 | When is I see you a cryin''like dis befo''? |
22113 | When they reached her corridor she said to Juno:"Little girl, will you come into my room a moment?'' |
22113 | Where did you and Peggy catch and bottle up all your worldly wisdom?" |
22113 | Where did you come from?" |
22113 | Which is the particular He, Peggy? |
22113 | Which of these fellows will be there?" |
22113 | Who but she could fill that office? |
22113 | Who could help loving them?" |
22113 | Whose could it be? |
22113 | Why could it not have gone on? |
22113 | Why did you carry Helen from the room? |
22113 | Why do n''t you quote Helen Taft to us instead of Queen Mary? |
22113 | Why does n''t that man drive him out?" |
22113 | Why in this world should they? |
22113 | Why not? |
22113 | Why not? |
22113 | Why should they? |
22113 | Will any horse come if you know how to call him? |
22113 | Will you let him do so by coming down here with Peggy?" |
22113 | Will you show us? |
22113 | Will you?" |
22113 | With a pious"Ma Lawd- God- Amighty, what done happen?" |
22113 | Within a few moments two girls appeared in the doorway, the taller one asking:"Did you wish to see us, Mother?" |
22113 | Would it be fair? |
22113 | Would it be scorching hot? |
22113 | Would she find a welcome among the Delacys, the Vanderstacks, the Dryers and heaven knows which- or- whats of New York''s glitterers? |
22113 | Would there be moon- light nights? |
22113 | Would you like to drive in?" |
22113 | Yet did you ever_ see_ anything so graceful as those two girls and that magnificent dog when they went over? |
22113 | Yet if she lost sight of them what might not take place? |
22113 | Yet, why not? |
22113 | Yo''hyer me?" |
22113 | You are planning a house- party? |
22113 | You see it is only two weeks off and the Little Mother has not said anything about it, has she, Polly?" |
22113 | You think I am too sweeping in my assertion? |
22113 | You will come again-- yes, often-- and where I can help, count upon me-- always? |
22113 | _ This_ little town?" |
22113 | cried Peggy, aghast,"Tzaritza attacked_ you_, Polly?" |
22113 | who brought you?" |
35195 | A F E."What do you want to do? |
35195 | A F E? |
35195 | All what, Pierre? |
35195 | An''I suppose you know who they war? |
35195 | An''so, Mr Bill Buck, you think thet Jerry Rook hez been a humbuggin''ye? |
35195 | An''why thet, I shed like to know? 35195 An''why? |
35195 | An''ye tell me, Dick Tarleton, they find these sort o''nuts in Kaliforny lyin''right on the surface o''the groun''? |
35195 | An''ye war thar all the time, war ye? |
35195 | And I hope, Afton,retorted the captain, with a jesting smile,"that you have no intention of getting nervous about the matter?" |
35195 | And if he''s let go? |
35195 | And who told you? |
35195 | And why wo n''t it? |
35195 | And--"An''what? |
35195 | Angry with you, Pierre? |
35195 | Arapahoes? 35195 Are they all loaded?" |
35195 | Are they human? |
35195 | Bound for Kaliforny, air ye? |
35195 | But are you sure the noose would close upon his neck? 35195 But how are Marston and myself to get home this evening?" |
35195 | But is he a nigger? |
35195 | But tell me, Pierre, why did you stay from me, and for such a time? |
35195 | But what is the use of it? 35195 But what kept Pierre among''em?" |
35195 | But, Alf; you forget the_ body_? |
35195 | But, what have you done with-- the-- the body? |
35195 | But, why not? 35195 But,"objected Captain Marston,"perhaps they are only the initials of it; and in that case, the question arises, what do they stand for? |
35195 | By one hand or both? |
35195 | Can it be that they have abandoned me to this cruel death? |
35195 | Can you explain to me,asked John,"why I was captured, and why I am held as a prisoner?" |
35195 | Can you make out her hull? |
35195 | Captain,exclaimed Afton,"what is the use of bandying words with this fool? |
35195 | Carry what off? 35195 Choc?" |
35195 | Come, then,said the captain,"are you ready? |
35195 | Did n''t he kum back from Helena along wi''ye? |
35195 | Do n''t you remember,asked Marston,"the English story, which we read together when we were schoolboys, about a mysterious secret society? |
35195 | Do n''t you see the twinkle in the fellow''s eyes? 35195 Do you consider that fact as of not much importance?" |
35195 | Do you dare,he cried,"to call our captain a coward?" |
35195 | Do you see now? |
35195 | Do you think any one might have come along in time to save him? |
35195 | Do you think there''s a coffin? |
35195 | Do you wish it, Choc? |
35195 | Ef it warn''t, what ked a purvoked them to this drefful deed? 35195 For heaven''s sake, madam,"he said, in low but earnest tones,"what are you doing here? |
35195 | Had n''t we better ride back? |
35195 | Had we not better, captain,asked Seacome,"keep as near as we can to the ship until this gale has fallen, and then make the assault? |
35195 | Has your father any family besides yourself-- a son, or_ son- in- law_? |
35195 | Have they ever really made such captures? |
35195 | Have ye seed any one that know''d ye? |
35195 | He will soon be here? |
35195 | How air the thing to be done? 35195 How are you, John? |
35195 | How can I stay there,she said,"while these horrible scenes are taking place? |
35195 | How did you manage to get your card or note into my room? |
35195 | How do you propose to do, Alf? |
35195 | How is it to be? |
35195 | How much longer can you stand it, Choc? |
35195 | How will this answer? |
35195 | How''s best for the hint ter be konvayed to''em? 35195 How_ are_ you, Harry?" |
35195 | I can not tell, that is a mystery to me; and so too his sending me away, and so too several other things; but-- Whose voice is that? |
35195 | I suppose you have heard of my affliction, Miss Rook? |
35195 | I thought I remembered-- or had heard-- something--"Heard what, sir? |
35195 | Injun or nigger, what''s the difference? |
35195 | Is he at home now? |
35195 | Is not your health improving? 35195 Is that true, Rook? |
35195 | Is that you, Harry Marston? |
35195 | Is your gun loaded again? |
35195 | Madam,asked John,"is that man''s arm broken?" |
35195 | May I claim the honour of knowing your name? |
35195 | Most done, ai n''t ye? |
35195 | My father living? 35195 Now, how it came abeout?" |
35195 | Of course,pursued Jerry, after another pause of reflection,"ye heerd all that passed atween me an''that lot o''diggers?" |
35195 | Oh, a bar, war it? 35195 Oh,''tair you, Pierre, is it? |
35195 | Plotting some kind o''a conspyracy, air ye? 35195 Prisoner?" |
35195 | Shall I cross over and make inquiry? |
35195 | Shall we accept the invitation of this unknown friend? |
35195 | Skinned it, too, did they? |
35195 | Some boys, perhaps? |
35195 | Suppose, captain,said Afton, addressing Marston,"we range the` Long Tom''to bear upon her, and give her a shot?" |
35195 | Tell us what do you mean? 35195 The body? |
35195 | The challenger, or the challenged? |
35195 | The men who went out just now then,remarked the elderly man, in an interrogative manner,"were sent to catch him?" |
35195 | The place designated, I suppose, is the Spout on Saint Leonard''s Creek? |
35195 | There was some one, then? |
35195 | Villain yourself? |
35195 | Wal, and what did yur hear? |
35195 | Well, Billy,said the captain,"what luck?" |
35195 | Well, Mr Afton,said Captain Vance, in a pleasant tone, addressing this individual,"where is your prisoner?" |
35195 | Well, he''d bring that up, would n''t he? |
35195 | Whar away? |
35195 | Whar''s Pierre? |
35195 | Whar_ kin_ the gurl be? 35195 What Pierre?" |
35195 | What air Dick Tarleton to me? 35195 What condishun?" |
35195 | What do you mean by that? 35195 What do you mean to do?" |
35195 | What do you propose, Alf? |
35195 | What do you say, John? |
35195 | What do you say, Marston? |
35195 | What do you want? |
35195 | What has happened? |
35195 | What have we got to do with your affairs at this time? |
35195 | What is it, Jerry? |
35195 | What is it? |
35195 | What is that, Rook? |
35195 | What is the cause of the disturbance overhead, Captain Johnson? |
35195 | What is the matter, Captain Vance? |
35195 | What is your plan? |
35195 | What news, father? |
35195 | What o''her? |
35195 | What the ole Nick air ye whisperin''''beout? |
35195 | What then? 35195 What was it about Alf Brandon?" |
35195 | What way? 35195 What weapons do you choose, Mr Coe?" |
35195 | What will you bet you can? |
35195 | What you got thar? |
35195 | What''s fust to be done? 35195 What''s that?" |
35195 | What''s the meaning of all this fine talk? |
35195 | What''s the use of all this argufying? |
35195 | What''s to be done, boys? |
35195 | What''s to be done, boys? |
35195 | What, Alf? |
35195 | What, then? |
35195 | When? |
35195 | Where are Captain Dempster and Captain Marston? |
35195 | Where are the other two? |
35195 | Where can the darned thing be? |
35195 | Who are you, and what do you want? |
35195 | Who can hang longest by the neck? 35195 Who could have told them that Pierre Robideau still lived?" |
35195 | Who goes first? |
35195 | Who is there? |
35195 | Who is this friend of ours who wants to see us, Mr Bowsprit-- I mean Mr Brown? |
35195 | Who made you my master, I should like to know? |
35195 | Who mout they be? |
35195 | Who of ye remembers the spot? |
35195 | Who''d iver sispect? 35195 Who''ll go, then?" |
35195 | Why do you suppose,asked Mr Durocher,"that the stranger is in pursuit of you?" |
35195 | Why shedn''t I? |
35195 | Why, Dempster,said young Coe, seeing that they had passed Drum Point Harbour,"you are not going out upon the bay, are you?" |
35195 | Will you steer, Captain Marston, if you please? |
35195 | Wonder how deep the old skunk has buried him? |
35195 | Ye woud, woud ye? 35195 Yer war, war ye? |
35195 | You do n''t mean to say,said the boatswain,"that Leftenant Bowsprit and them others there have turned agin us?" |
35195 | You do n''t suppose that the old Shylock will yield without a trial? 35195 You here?" |
35195 | You say you knew this place well, sir? 35195 You seem to consider it as granted, by that remark,"observed our hero,"that you will be successful?" |
35195 | You''ll make it appear suicide? 35195 Your father? |
35195 | Yur wo n''t wonder, then, why I tuk so much pains, six years ago, to send yur out o''the way? 35195 ` All for Each?''" |
35195 | A long, low, black and rakish vessel, say you? |
35195 | A prisoner, didst thou say? |
35195 | After some further conversation upon the subject, young Coe asked--"Do you still advise me, madam, to accept this position which is offered to me? |
35195 | After"drinks all round,"Brandon had said:--"Well, boys, I''ve sent for you to meet me here, and here we are, guests; you know why?" |
35195 | Ai n''t he a nice looking gallows bird just now? |
35195 | Air ye in airnest?" |
35195 | Air ye sure''beout it?" |
35195 | All agreed, boys?" |
35195 | Am I to lose six hundred dollars pre- annum, jess for the satisfakshun o''his spite? |
35195 | An''I''spose all the same if I war to tell ye o''t? |
35195 | An''shurly she ai n''t goed across the crik? |
35195 | An''that''s the hole in which ye war hidin'', is it? |
35195 | An''what mout ye a been doin''? |
35195 | An''ye tuk arter the bar, and let the poor young fellar swing?" |
35195 | And what stranger episode had kept them bound in a confidence neither seemed desirous of divulging? |
35195 | And what their purpose? |
35195 | And you have been to California? |
35195 | Are you speaking the truth? |
35195 | But tell me, why did you go there at all?" |
35195 | But there are cares also belonging to the possession of riches; and how will an inexperienced young girl like you know how to meet these?" |
35195 | But what about him? |
35195 | But what knew she of California? |
35195 | But what was this in comparison? |
35195 | Can he not throw up his feet, and by them elevate himself upon the branch? |
35195 | Can you recollect the initials of their password?" |
35195 | D''ye know what refusin''means?" |
35195 | D''ye mean that, Pierre Robideau?" |
35195 | Danger, say you? |
35195 | Dare any of you try that?" |
35195 | Did one of them carry that thin circlet of gold to show she was lost to him for ever? |
35195 | Did you find him dead?" |
35195 | Do it astonish ye to see a man by the side o''his own gurden? |
35195 | Do ye consent?" |
35195 | Do you know his name, captain?" |
35195 | Do you remember Ada Ashleigh, who was one of your schoolmates at the old Manor Quarter school- house situate between Millmont and Drum Point?" |
35195 | Do you surrender?" |
35195 | Doin''a bit of dissinterry as they call it? |
35195 | Ef''t kim to thet, what then? |
35195 | Else why their stealthy movements, and their talking in low tones, scarce louder than a whisper? |
35195 | For what were they going to dig? |
35195 | For what? |
35195 | Has it occurred to you that we have not the password to admit us to the rendezvous?" |
35195 | Has it passed away so soon? |
35195 | Hastily returning to the tree, and stopping in front of the dark entrance, he continued--"Somebidy inside thar? |
35195 | Have you any salts?" |
35195 | Have you got anything better to propose? |
35195 | Have you not a pair of pistols? |
35195 | Hez anybody been hyar?" |
35195 | Himself? |
35195 | His karracktur, I s''pose?" |
35195 | His scheme had fallen through? |
35195 | How are you, friends? |
35195 | How could you doubt me? |
35195 | How d''ye know, gurl, thet they killed a bar?" |
35195 | How had Jerry Rook, a poor white, become a proprietor? |
35195 | How kim ye to be hyar?" |
35195 | How should I? |
35195 | I hain''t no spare beds, or I''d ask you all in; but I s''pose ye''ll be a goin''back wi''Mr Slaughter thar, an''havin''a drink by way o''night cap? |
35195 | I hope that you are not offended with the_ ruse_ which I used to bring you to see me for a short time? |
35195 | I hope you wo n''t be disturbed by my early coming?" |
35195 | I know a way, myself, maybe you''d like to hear it?" |
35195 | I may take''it, may I, by way o''earnest to the bargain?" |
35195 | I need n''t ask whether you are all willing?" |
35195 | I suppose you''re satisfied I''ve won?" |
35195 | I wonder if that is not the password in this case?" |
35195 | I wonder who they are? |
35195 | I''spose ye do n''t want to take that wi''ye? |
35195 | I''ve foun''you at last, hev I? |
35195 | If not, what''s the use of all this palaverin''?" |
35195 | In coorse the hole thing''ud leak out, an''whar''d this chile be''beout his six hundred dollars?" |
35195 | In coorse you''re gwine to take your young''un along wi''ye?" |
35195 | In what other manner could I have spoken? |
35195 | Is that not so?" |
35195 | Is that what you mean?" |
35195 | Is there no hope from hearing? |
35195 | Is your father still living?" |
35195 | Lena, gurl, is''t you?" |
35195 | Let him tell his story, and what evidence can he bring to support it? |
35195 | Maybe she''s strayed up behint the stable or the corn- cribs? |
35195 | Mr Bowsprit,"he exclaimed, turning to that officer,"have you reloaded your gun?" |
35195 | Never say` die''--heh, boys?" |
35195 | No doubt yur did wonder at that?" |
35195 | No hope of his being rescued from his perilous situation? |
35195 | Now, d''ye unnerstan''me?" |
35195 | Now, name yur price; or, shall I fix it for ye? |
35195 | Of course we did n''t mean that; and who''d a thought o''a bar runnin''straight into us in that way? |
35195 | Often had the questions recurred to him:"What is her real position on board of this vessel? |
35195 | Or is it only kept under by the keener agony of revenge? |
35195 | Pierre watched her with eager eyes, with heart beating impatiently, until he felt hers beating against it? |
35195 | Refuse? |
35195 | Retire without showing himself, and seek information elsewhere-- some one living near who could tell him all? |
35195 | Should he return to it and stay till circumstances favoured him with an_ eclaircissement_? |
35195 | Suppose he does swear, what then? |
35195 | Suppose we call back the girl, and let her have a look at him? |
35195 | Suppose you put in too, and see what you can do?" |
35195 | Supposing we have the old scoundrel, and dare him to do his worst, what evidence has he got against us only his own oath?" |
35195 | Tell me-- do tell me quickly-- what has happened?" |
35195 | Tell us?" |
35195 | The girl-- Rook''s daughter?" |
35195 | The grief he should feel for his lost son-- where is it? |
35195 | The hound ai n''t killed that varmint himself?" |
35195 | The precious old pirate; has n''t he bilked us nicely? |
35195 | Then, observing the dust upon his garments, she added,"If I mistake not, you''re a stranger to this part of the country?" |
35195 | To be plain, then, what is the price of such an explanation?" |
35195 | Turning to the latter, he at length spoke--"How long''ve ye been back, Pierre?" |
35195 | Wal, I hope ye foun''what ye hev been rootin''for?" |
35195 | Was Jerry Rook the owner of the pretty house that had supplanted his rude sheiling? |
35195 | Was he a stranger who had taken the wrong fork that had conducted him to a blind trace now run out? |
35195 | Was he never going to return? |
35195 | Was he not your brother?" |
35195 | Was his enemy in earnest, or was it only a grim jest? |
35195 | Was it a long time ago?" |
35195 | Was it the form of a fair girl dimly outlined under the shadow of the trees? |
35195 | Was this certain? |
35195 | We''ve been having a trial of strength here-- who can hang longest by one arm to this branch? |
35195 | Whar kin she be?" |
35195 | Whar kin the gurl hev gone? |
35195 | Whar''s the other four?" |
35195 | Whar?" |
35195 | What answer could she have made to that question her father had asked? |
35195 | What are they?" |
35195 | What are you doing behind me?" |
35195 | What are you going to do?" |
35195 | What can he do? |
35195 | What can it mean? |
35195 | What could he do but make such answer as the lady had sought to obtain? |
35195 | What d''ye intend doin''?" |
35195 | What do you propose doing with him?" |
35195 | What do you want?" |
35195 | What else could they have thought? |
35195 | What for?" |
35195 | What good would it do him? |
35195 | What good''ud thet do ye? |
35195 | What had brought Alfred Brandon back to the cottonwood? |
35195 | What had detained her? |
35195 | What had he best do? |
35195 | What hev they got to do wi''bar- huntin''--a parcel o''brats o''boys? |
35195 | What hev yur get agin him? |
35195 | What is her history?" |
35195 | What ked he hev done, to hev engered them? |
35195 | What say you, boys?" |
35195 | What signify that? |
35195 | What strange chance has brought two such men together? |
35195 | What war they a doin''?" |
35195 | What was seen in that last glaring look? |
35195 | What was to be done? |
35195 | What was to be done? |
35195 | What''s the hurry? |
35195 | When did you get back home?" |
35195 | When did you leave it? |
35195 | Where was the hand to have done it? |
35195 | Who air it? |
35195 | Who air ye anyhow?" |
35195 | Who are these men, sir? |
35195 | Who are you? |
35195 | Who art thou, fair and gentle princess? |
35195 | Who can hang longest with one hand? |
35195 | Who can spring up, seize hold of it, and hang on longest? |
35195 | Who comes from Helena? |
35195 | Who could have cut the rope? |
35195 | Who could they be? |
35195 | Who is he?" |
35195 | Who ked it be? |
35195 | Who the divvel cud a done it?" |
35195 | Who the durnation hez been trespassin''''mong my peach trees?" |
35195 | Who the durnation kin it a- been?" |
35195 | Who the red thunder kin he be? |
35195 | Who''s been squrrl shootin''this time o''day?" |
35195 | Who''s better''n Alf Brandon?" |
35195 | Who, then, could have been the informer? |
35195 | Why do you ask?" |
35195 | Why not at once? |
35195 | Why not have it at once; and from her? |
35195 | Why shedn''t I meet him?" |
35195 | Why should you force me to this?" |
35195 | Why was he avoiding the road? |
35195 | Why was she so late? |
35195 | Will you believe it, Pierre, he once told me you were dead? |
35195 | Will you promise this?" |
35195 | Wonder what it kin mean? |
35195 | Would she accept the title, or correct it? |
35195 | Would she still permit herself to be called"Miss?" |
35195 | Ye hear that?" |
35195 | Ye see how it air, Dick? |
35195 | Ye''ll be knowin''then why this chile ai n''t livin''any more in the ole shanty, but in a good, comftable frame- house, wi''a clarin''roun''it?" |
35195 | Ye''ll stay all night? |
35195 | You are too weak, I suppose, to get upon deck yourself, Mr Durocher?" |
35195 | You have some business, perhaps?" |
35195 | You remember the lad who took charge of your and Captain Marston''s notes and horses?" |
35195 | You''re a gwine to berry somebidy, air ye?" |
35195 | an''by the Eturnal, ye shall be no longer my darter? |
35195 | and what was the use of my speaking with excitement? |
35195 | father, do you think he is dead? |
35195 | he continued, going back towards the porch, still occupied by his daughter;"d''ye mean to say ye seed nobody beout hyar to- day?" |
35195 | he exclaimed, adding a fearful oath;"it''s all very well for them, but what matters the money to me? |
35195 | hev ye tuk leave o''yur senses? |
35195 | how are you, Harry?" |
35195 | is there no alternative? |
35195 | or was it only that same form conjured up by a fancy flickering on the edge of eternity? |
35195 | said the young planter, affecting ignorance of the suggested scheme,"carry the collector off? |
35195 | surely you do not call it good news?" |
35195 | what have you ever done to make him your enemy?" |
35195 | what''s that dog a draggin''out from''mong the peach trees? |
35195 | ye''d speil my plan, wud ye? |
35195 | ye''re agreed beout thet, air ye? |
35195 | ye''ve been a grave- diggin'', hev ye? |
35195 | you''re come to that, are you? |
46367 | A nice sort of somebody, is she? |
46367 | A trunk? 46367 A trunk?" |
46367 | Ai n''t it de troof? |
46367 | Ai n''t nobody comin''to eat suppah with yuh? |
46367 | Ain''it de troof? |
46367 | An''w''ar dat nice floppity white frock? |
46367 | An''yuh has uver so many nice young gem''mans come to see yuh? |
46367 | And am I not to see this mysterious stranger? 46367 And disappoint Phebe? |
46367 | And do you believe there really was a great- grandfather? |
46367 | And give up teaching? 46367 And have you established your facts?" |
46367 | And how goes the school? 46367 And it is yours?" |
46367 | And leave dear old Mammy to her lonesome? 46367 And of course you hurried before that?" |
46367 | And that is what makes you look so happy? |
46367 | And that is why you wanted to consult Judge Goldsborough? |
46367 | And the picked out person does n''t know he is picked out? |
46367 | And their father was? |
46367 | And this time? |
46367 | And what is it you like best? |
46367 | And what is the other? |
46367 | And who do you think is? 46367 And why did you do it? |
46367 | And you are very glad that you can feel an undisputed ownership of the old home? |
46367 | And you have sworn off? |
46367 | And you think Berkley Matthews is like that? |
46367 | And you? |
46367 | Any flaw in the title to Jim Talbot''s property? 46367 Are n''t you glad, Berk?" |
46367 | Are n''t you glad, Linda,she went on,"that you are making a place for yourself in the world? |
46367 | Are you feeling very high and mighty? 46367 Are you going to tell her?" |
46367 | Are you hurt, old man? |
46367 | Are you ill? 46367 Are you really going soon?" |
46367 | Are you really, Berk? 46367 Are you sleepy? |
46367 | As much as you do now? |
46367 | At the eleventh hour? 46367 Aunt Ri,"began Linda as soon as they had turned from the house,"did you dream it was Talbot''s Angles?" |
46367 | Before? 46367 Berk, dear, were you very unhappy, then? |
46367 | Berk,said the girl,"I would n''t live anywhere but on this blessed old Eastern Sho''for the world, would you?" |
46367 | Bound for a walk? |
46367 | Boys or girls do you have? |
46367 | But about the papers; what could be in them? |
46367 | But does the matter of a few months or even years, when you were yet in a state of infantile bewilderment, make any difference? |
46367 | But the cravat? |
46367 | But what are you going to do? |
46367 | But what can we do? |
46367 | But who will get dinner to- day? |
46367 | But, Mammy, what can I do? 46367 By the way,"she added,"are n''t you feeling well these days? |
46367 | By yose''f? 46367 By''us''you mean Mr. Matthews and yourself?" |
46367 | Can I see you privately? |
46367 | Can you wait a few minutes? 46367 Could anything so obvious be dignified by the name of a hint? |
46367 | Could you believe that she would so fail in hospitality? |
46367 | Cousin is it? 46367 Dat bo''ds wi''Miss Parthy an''feeds de chickens?" |
46367 | Dat up in town? |
46367 | Did I? |
46367 | Did he? 46367 Did n''t you have a pleasant drive? |
46367 | Did n''t you promise to sing for me, if I played for you? |
46367 | Did you ever hear of the girl who slept with her head at the foot of her bed and who was roused by feeling something cold on her toes? 46367 Did you ever meet such beautiful hospitality, and is n''t it worth while to find out that it has not entirely disappeared from the land?" |
46367 | Did you find everything all right? |
46367 | Did you have a good trip, Miss Ri? |
46367 | Did you leave everything all right at the farm? |
46367 | Did you see that there was a crocus by the side of the walk? 46367 Do n''t you hear every bit of town news from Miss Ri? |
46367 | Do n''t you think he was actually heroic to give up the claim? |
46367 | Do you know if he took any papers from his trunk to leave behind? |
46367 | Do you know,continued Bertie,"whether Mr. Jeffreys intends to live there? |
46367 | Do you like it here? 46367 Do you mean I shall poison her or use a dagger, Lady Macbeth?" |
46367 | Do you really mean, Miss Ri, that you get everything you want in this world? |
46367 | Do you suppose I doubted the truth of your feeling for her? |
46367 | Do you suppose he has gone to fetch the keys of the city? |
46367 | Do you suppose it will be cough medicine this time? |
46367 | Do you think I''ve been unkind, unfair to Mr. Jeffreys? 46367 Do you want to do that?" |
46367 | Does n''t Mr. Jeffreys make his appearance about this time? |
46367 | Does n''t saving a man''s life come about as near settling any existing score as a thing could? |
46367 | Ducks or no ducks? |
46367 | For good? |
46367 | Give it up? 46367 Glad? |
46367 | Good morning, ladies,the voice came with pleasant eagerness;"you''re the ladies from Sandbridge? |
46367 | Have I been speaking for Phebe all these years to be deprived of her now on account of so slight a thing as Verlinda Talbot? 46367 Have you sent out any more of your work?" |
46367 | He did? 46367 He has a perfect right, has n''t he, Aunt Ri?" |
46367 | He has? |
46367 | How did you manage to do it? 46367 How do you know that opportunity will ever be afforded me?" |
46367 | How do you know? |
46367 | How is it you are taking Miss Parthy''s tasks upon yourself? |
46367 | How long since you came? |
46367 | How many acres are there? |
46367 | How was yours sent? |
46367 | How were you going? |
46367 | How would it do to follow up Berk? 46367 I could n''t,"returned Berkley meekly,"for I have n''t seen you since, and-- Do you happen to know Mr. Jeffreys? |
46367 | I do n''t know; yet, if he removed the papers, how could he help seeing whose they were? 46367 I do n''t suppose there is any chance of my catching Mr. Matthews in town before he leaves?" |
46367 | I may be wrong, but it does seem to me rather like turning Linda out of house and home, Grace, does n''t it? |
46367 | I wonder if he started from the Jackson House or his office? 46367 If she could n''t care for such a man as Jeffreys why should I expect her to care for me? |
46367 | In perjuring himself, for example? |
46367 | Is I happy? 46367 Is he something pleasant? |
46367 | Is it only because you are busy? 46367 Is n''t he a fine old fellow?" |
46367 | Is n''t she wonderful? |
46367 | Is that honestly said? |
46367 | Is that so? 46367 Is thy servant a dog, that he comes merely to be fed?" |
46367 | It is in Hartford? |
46367 | It just suits the day, does n''t it? |
46367 | It might make her really ill, and then who would cook for us? 46367 It was generous of him, do n''t you think?" |
46367 | It was n''t a pistol? 46367 It was?" |
46367 | It would, would it? 46367 J. S. D.? |
46367 | Let me see-- Monroe? 46367 Linda, dear,"she said,"would you mind seeing if there is more wood? |
46367 | Lovina, was n''t it? |
46367 | May I go with you? |
46367 | Miss Hill, are you sure? 46367 Miss Hill, could it be possible that it is my trunk? |
46367 | Miss Lindy, yuh ai n''t gwine ma''y dat man, is yuh? |
46367 | New books, are they? |
46367 | No, I do n''t say so? 46367 No? |
46367 | Nor when he will be back? |
46367 | Not Miss Parthy? |
46367 | Not even to Miss Ri? |
46367 | Not very complimentary, is she? |
46367 | Now is n''t that just the way? 46367 Now is n''t this hard luck?" |
46367 | Now, Aunt Ri, what for? |
46367 | Now, Miss Linda,Berkley expostulated,"have n''t I known you as long as Miss Ri has?" |
46367 | Now, what is he driving at? |
46367 | Now, what is it you want? |
46367 | Of course, Mr. Jeffreys, we can be positive now, do n''t you think? |
46367 | Oh, Aunt Ri, it would be perfectly delightful, but--"But what? |
46367 | Oh, but do you think we ought to go? |
46367 | Oh, dear me, the masculine mind does work more deliberately than ours, does n''t it? 46367 Oh, is he? |
46367 | Oh, you have? 46367 On Broad Creek? |
46367 | One of your mysterious errands, Miss Ri? |
46367 | Really, Berk? |
46367 | Really? 46367 Really? |
46367 | Sale? 46367 Shall you be working long?" |
46367 | So it is a serious subject to your mind? |
46367 | Sounds rather ghastly, does n''t it? 46367 Talbot''s Angles? |
46367 | Tell me, Miss Ri, did he bring any sort of credentials with him? |
46367 | That Miss Carroll is quite a pretty girl, is n''t she? |
46367 | That would be expecting a little too much, would n''t it? |
46367 | That you''d rather go with Bertie? |
46367 | That--"That he had asked you to marry him? 46367 Then am I or am I not to consider that you have performed a selfish act in coming all the way to Boxford for me in all this rain?" |
46367 | Then would you go down there to live? |
46367 | Then you probably know all about her home, Talbot''s Angles, do they call it? |
46367 | Then, will you accept it as I offer it? 46367 There''s no need of your knowing, is there?" |
46367 | There''s only one Verlinda Talbot, is n''t there? 46367 Things have happened in this blessed sleepy old place? |
46367 | Tired, Linda? 46367 To do some shopping? |
46367 | To me? |
46367 | Truly? 46367 Unexplored? |
46367 | Verlinda, Verlinda,she said,"I wish I could turn a search- light on that heart of yours?" |
46367 | Verlinda,she said presently,"how would you like to go up to the city for your holiday? |
46367 | Was ever a girl so lucky? 46367 Was n''t it your trunk?" |
46367 | Well, Jeffreys, old man, how goes it? 46367 Well, and how did it go to- day, Verlinda?" |
46367 | Well, child, has your young man gone? |
46367 | Well, shall we go? |
46367 | Well, who was blushing like a sixteen- older when I came in? 46367 Well, yes, I did; for who would n''t have almost anyone rather than eat alone? |
46367 | Were we going anywhere to- night? |
46367 | Wha''de matter, honey? |
46367 | Whar yuh been? |
46367 | Whar yuh gwine live? |
46367 | What am I thinking of? |
46367 | What are we to do, Aunt Ri? 46367 What are you back here for?" |
46367 | What are you going to do? |
46367 | What color would you suggest? |
46367 | What did Berk have to say besides mentioning that he was proud of you? |
46367 | What did I do that for? |
46367 | What did he have to say? |
46367 | What do you mean, Verlinda Talbot, by trying to get me to tell my secrets? |
46367 | What do you mean, man? |
46367 | What do you mean? |
46367 | What do you mean? |
46367 | What do you think of a man who would put such questions to a perfect stranger? |
46367 | What does all this mean? |
46367 | What does it all mean? |
46367 | What if I do? 46367 What in the world are you doing prowling around here at this time of night, trying our bolts and bars?" |
46367 | What in the world are you up to? 46367 What is in the trunk?" |
46367 | What of the papers? |
46367 | What other reason could there be? |
46367 | What right had you to try to frighten us, I demand? |
46367 | What sort of chump would I be if I had n''t done it? 46367 What were you saying, Aunt Ri?" |
46367 | What yuh mean, chile? |
46367 | What''s the matter, Linda? |
46367 | What? |
46367 | When are you going to announce your engagement? |
46367 | When''s Ri coming back? |
46367 | Where are those papers? |
46367 | Where are you going? |
46367 | Where are your thoughts, Berk? |
46367 | Where can I get a match? |
46367 | Where do you suppose the postoffice is? |
46367 | Where were you walking? |
46367 | Where, as in Sandbridge, they are always ready to welcome strangers cordially? 46367 Which do you think would be the easier to live with?" |
46367 | Which were? |
46367 | Who do you think is over there, just across from us, a little to your rear? 46367 Who is talking about Aunt Ri?" |
46367 | Who is vehement now, Verlinda Talbot? 46367 Who told you?" |
46367 | Whose fault? 46367 Why bat?" |
46367 | Why did n''t you make yourself known before? 46367 Why did n''t you send me word you were here? |
46367 | Why did you let her have it? 46367 Why do you ask?" |
46367 | Why has Linda gone to town? |
46367 | Why is n''t it? 46367 Why not?" |
46367 | Why remind me of such things? 46367 Why, Aunt Ri?" |
46367 | Why, Verlinda, my dear child, what do you mean? 46367 Why, my child, did he ask you to marry him?" |
46367 | Why, sweet? |
46367 | Why? |
46367 | Why? |
46367 | Wo n''t it be very expensive? |
46367 | Would n''t the impetuous man be more difficult, more trying, for the very reason of his impetuosity? |
46367 | Would n''t you have done so? |
46367 | Would you have even one saint? 46367 Yes, I thought so when we met her the other day at''Mary''s Delight,''It was nice of them to bring her, was n''t it? |
46367 | You are happy in your work, Berk, are n''t you? |
46367 | You did n''t? 46367 You did? |
46367 | You do n''t imagine he has fallen in love with Grace, do you? |
46367 | You do n''t want another boarder? |
46367 | You have climbed into fame, have n''t you? |
46367 | You have n''t a sweetheart in the city, Berk Matthews? 46367 You poor darling child,"said Miss Ri, bending over her,"was it so hard?" |
46367 | You think there is a chance for me, do you? 46367 You were? |
46367 | You''d have me give up my independence, Aunt Ri? 46367 Your friend? |
46367 | Yuh got some cu''ant jelly, is yuh, Miss Ri? 46367 ''That''s right fur, ai n''t it?'' 46367 ''Well, Mr. Hill,''he said;''if t- a- x do n''t spell tacks, what do it spell?'' 46367 ''Where ye been?'' 46367 ''Why, it''s a pretty good place, why should n''t I stand it, Aaron?'' 46367 115YOU DON''T IMAGINE HE HAS FALLEN IN LOVE WITH GRACE, DO YOU?" |
46367 | A really good man would never go so far unless--""Unless?" |
46367 | Ai n''t it de troof now? |
46367 | Ai n''t it yo''home''fore it hers? |
46367 | Ai n''t yo''gran''daddy an''you gre''t- gran''-daddy live hyar? |
46367 | Ai n''t yuh de one dat has de mostes''right?" |
46367 | Am I never to be anything more, Linda? |
46367 | And goes around taking photographs? |
46367 | And he married the other girl? |
46367 | And is n''t he more to be approved than the man who sacrifices his integrity, or does a wrong thing for love''s sake?" |
46367 | And you?" |
46367 | Any more light on the case, Berk?" |
46367 | Any news up town?" |
46367 | Anything wrong?" |
46367 | Are n''t we proud of her, Miss Ri? |
46367 | Are n''t you?" |
46367 | Are they paying you well for it?" |
46367 | Are you domestic?" |
46367 | Are you going to give it up?" |
46367 | Are you going with him, Verlinda?" |
46367 | Are you happy, Mammy?" |
46367 | Are you making a family tree for Linda?" |
46367 | Are you on your way to the city?" |
46367 | Are you sure it is Talbot''s Angles?" |
46367 | At what hour?" |
46367 | Aunt Ri, do you suppose Berk could have found that out? |
46367 | Been away a right smart of a time, have n''t you?'' |
46367 | Berk said he had seen Grace Talbot, did n''t he?" |
46367 | Berkley did not answer, but instead asked,"Did Jeffreys tell you of his determination not to follow up his claim?" |
46367 | By the way when did you turn poet?" |
46367 | By the way, Linda, did you ever hear the way old Aaron Hopkins interprets that?" |
46367 | CHAPTER V THE ALARM"Have I interrupted a musicale?" |
46367 | CHAPTER VII WAS IT CURIOSITY? |
46367 | CHAPTER XIX OF WHAT AVAIL? |
46367 | Ca n''t you stay home with your little Gracie this afternoon?" |
46367 | Can I take you anywhere, first, Jeffreys?" |
46367 | Confound it all, why did it have to happen so? |
46367 | Could he ever expect to win Linda''s love and respect, if he had won her by such unworthy means? |
46367 | Could he supply it? |
46367 | Dared she understand it so? |
46367 | Dick, will you take out Miss Talbot?" |
46367 | Did Jeffreys know before he left?" |
46367 | Did Mr. Jeffreys come?" |
46367 | Did he help me over a gutter, or up a steep curb? |
46367 | Did n''t I send you the first fruits of my chase? |
46367 | Did n''t you know it would have made a difference to me-- to us all, if you belonged, even remotely, to one of the old families?" |
46367 | Did you ever happen to know of a Madison Talbot who lived-- let me see-- about 1812 or thereabouts?" |
46367 | Did you ever hear of Lovina Talbot?" |
46367 | Did you ever know such a talker as she is? |
46367 | Dinner, did you say, Julia? |
46367 | Do n''t you believe that you have your brother still? |
46367 | Do n''t you know it is my lack of conceit which prevents my harboring the belief that I could induce anyone to help me to make a home?" |
46367 | Do n''t you think chickens are very amusing? |
46367 | Do n''t you think he acted queerly, Aunt Ri?" |
46367 | Do n''t you think that some day you might learn to love me a little?" |
46367 | Do the Talbots come from that neighborhood?" |
46367 | Do you know Mrs. Hill, Miss Linda? |
46367 | Do you like my verses, Berk?" |
46367 | Do you mean I could induce Phebe to accept the place of head cook at the hotel?" |
46367 | Do you mean by yourself?" |
46367 | Do you mind if I ask that you do not repeat what I have been telling you?" |
46367 | Do you suppose they are off for the city to- night?" |
46367 | Do you think I have no pride? |
46367 | Do you think he has known all this time?" |
46367 | Do you think you''re the only man who can do a brave thing? |
46367 | Do you think--?" |
46367 | Does a war- whoop discover the foes? |
46367 | Does he say anything about the trunk?" |
46367 | Does the verse- making continue?" |
46367 | Ducks ready? |
46367 | Had he arrived? |
46367 | Had he seen Berk? |
46367 | Hallo, Berk, what has brought you here, I''d like to know? |
46367 | Has Berk been here?" |
46367 | Has her sister come?" |
46367 | Have you good warm flannels, Uncle Moke?" |
46367 | Have you met him?" |
46367 | Have you met the mysterious stranger, Bertie?" |
46367 | Have you said anything to Miss Grace about going?" |
46367 | Have you seen Mr. Jeffreys? |
46367 | Have you seen her, Matthews?" |
46367 | He is too honest and straightforward, and besides, what would be his object?" |
46367 | He was a good honest man enough, and afterward became a builder, but he never put on any airs, as why should he? |
46367 | He was met by the question:"What report?" |
46367 | He was silent a moment before he asked:"What did the judge have to say to you, Linda?" |
46367 | Here, Jeffreys, I want to present you to Miss Talbot and-- who is with you, Linda?" |
46367 | How are you getting along, Linda, by the way?" |
46367 | How could he know that her smiles covered a jealous, grasping nature? |
46367 | How did that miserable usurper look?" |
46367 | How do you like the idea of such a trip?" |
46367 | How do you manage to keep it so beautifully polished?" |
46367 | How is Grace bearing up?" |
46367 | How is the school going?" |
46367 | How is your wife?" |
46367 | How was Parthy and how were the dogs, and what was going on? |
46367 | How will that do?" |
46367 | How would it do for me to adopt you as one, Verlinda? |
46367 | However, that is an old subject, is n''t it? |
46367 | I am permitted only a place to sleep and enough to eat, and if she elects not to stay here, what am I to do? |
46367 | I can not keep up an establishment on nothing, can I? |
46367 | I could persuade Miss Ri to spend part of the year there, maybe, and-- oh, would n''t it be lovely?" |
46367 | I do n''t suppose you could stay now?" |
46367 | I have n''t recovered from my scare yet, have you, Jeffreys? |
46367 | I know I do n''t deserve it, but do you think you could ever learn to care a little for me? |
46367 | I would n''t have blamed him, for he was not to blame, was he? |
46367 | If he were in Europe, in China, in India, would n''t you still have him? |
46367 | If you''re not first, who is?" |
46367 | Invited I, did she?" |
46367 | Is it that, Miss Ri, that keeps you almost always so bright and happy? |
46367 | Is n''t my house big enough for plump me, skinny you, and fat Phebe? |
46367 | Is n''t that just like him? |
46367 | Is n''t that provoking?" |
46367 | Is she making a recluse of you?" |
46367 | Is that the only reason?" |
46367 | Is that true?" |
46367 | Is this where we part?" |
46367 | It is losing her the comfort of living again in her old home, and, dickens take it, how do I know that I am any better off? |
46367 | It is n''t morning, is it?" |
46367 | It would be sad, would it not, Miss Hill, if, after my effort to do what would seem best for Linda, the property should pass into other hands?" |
46367 | James, son of Martin, son of Madison, son of James; that''s it, is n''t it?" |
46367 | Jeffreys?" |
46367 | Jeffreys?" |
46367 | Jeffreys?" |
46367 | Jeffreys?" |
46367 | Jeffreys?" |
46367 | Just to make Verlinda unhappy?" |
46367 | Let me see; what have I heard? |
46367 | Linda obeyed, and Miss Ri gave an account of the pursuit of clues, ending up with,"Now, what do you think of it?" |
46367 | Linda was silent for some time; then she spoke again, following out her thoughts:"Aunt Ri, do you think that is why Berk has avoided me? |
46367 | Linda, dear, is that you? |
46367 | Linda, why did we ever treat him so well? |
46367 | Matthews?" |
46367 | Matthews?" |
46367 | May I come in?" |
46367 | May I come to- morrow afternoon? |
46367 | May I know the name of my knight?" |
46367 | Meanwhile, what difference does it make? |
46367 | Miss Ri leaned forward and asked earnestly:"What were they?" |
46367 | Must you go?" |
46367 | No piece of news of any importance?" |
46367 | No? |
46367 | OF WHAT AVAIL? |
46367 | Of what?" |
46367 | Oh, dear, why should we have such contrary hearts?" |
46367 | Oh, did you hear that the trunk had been found, and that mine was the great mind that happened to realize its value?" |
46367 | Oh, you went to a sale? |
46367 | Once invited, always invited, you see, so I repeat my anxious query: what''s for supper?" |
46367 | One does n''t expect to meet three such coincidences and gain no result, does one? |
46367 | See here, children, why ca n''t you both come here and live with me till I can find an orphan who wants an Aunt Ri? |
46367 | Shall I hand you back your papers?" |
46367 | Shall we see his sister and mother, do you think?" |
46367 | She is as bad as Becky, and did you hear Lauretta? |
46367 | She will have to cook for herself, and why not for you? |
46367 | Should she arouse Bertie? |
46367 | So you are a confessed matchmaker, Miss Ri? |
46367 | Suppose we slip that card and necktie back, Mr. Jeffreys? |
46367 | Suppose we stop by and see what Mrs. Baker can tell us?" |
46367 | Tell me plainly, what do you think of my new cousin?" |
46367 | Tell me such a thing? |
46367 | The lad hesitated when she asked,"Could we go up to the little room?" |
46367 | Then suddenly,"Good heavens, man, you do n''t mean that''s the place you are thinking to claim? |
46367 | Then what in the world was it?" |
46367 | There was some talk upon trifling matters, then Grace, turning to Linda, said,"Oh, by the way, what about that Mr. Jeffreys? |
46367 | There, how do you like it?" |
46367 | They remind me of grandmother''s, do n''t they you, Lauretta? |
46367 | This is your sister, is n''t it? |
46367 | This your niece?" |
46367 | Tired, are you?" |
46367 | Very fitly named, is n''t it? |
46367 | WAS IT CURIOSITY? |
46367 | Was ever a better son, or brother, if it comes to that?" |
46367 | Was he able to buy Talbot''s Angles supposing it were for sale? |
46367 | Was n''t Timber Neck theirs at one time?" |
46367 | Was n''t it just like Linda to go off by herself to church instead of walking with them? |
46367 | Was there a confession? |
46367 | We accept your excuses since they seem moderately reasonable, do n''t we, Verlinda?" |
46367 | We know that, do n''t we, Aunt Ri? |
46367 | Well, anything new?" |
46367 | Well, he walked up to me and said,''Do n''t you want me to take some photographs of your house and grounds? |
46367 | Well, well, how on airth could you stand it?'' |
46367 | Well, what has she been telling you?" |
46367 | Were there some papers of yours, Miss Ri? |
46367 | Were they up for a shopping expedition? |
46367 | Were you-- were you engaged to Mr. Dick Goldsborough?" |
46367 | Wha''she been a doin''to Mammy''s honey chile?" |
46367 | Whar all yo''beaux, honey chile?" |
46367 | What I gwine do?" |
46367 | What a turn of fate, to be sure, and now what was to be done? |
46367 | What am I to do?" |
46367 | What are you going to do next, pending Berk''s return? |
46367 | What are you going to have for supper?" |
46367 | What are you talking about, Verlinda Talbot?" |
46367 | What could Berkley answer? |
46367 | What did I tell you, Verlinda? |
46367 | What did he say about the trunk?" |
46367 | What did you learn from Bertie?" |
46367 | What do you say to it?" |
46367 | What do you suppose is the matter?" |
46367 | What do you want that you ca n''t get?" |
46367 | What else did he say?" |
46367 | What have I done?" |
46367 | What have you to put in his side of the scales?" |
46367 | What is that old quotation? |
46367 | What next, Aunt Ri?" |
46367 | What odds, now, what Linda thought? |
46367 | What right had I to expect that I could throw a sop to my conscience by asking her to marry me? |
46367 | What right have I to be glad anyway? |
46367 | What shall we do with ourselves?" |
46367 | What was I thinking of? |
46367 | What was it?" |
46367 | What was the meaning of that saying? |
46367 | What were you talking about to make you forget it?" |
46367 | What were you two saying about me? |
46367 | What''s for supper, Miss Ri?" |
46367 | What''s the trouble?" |
46367 | When are you going to make up your mind to come and live with me, Phebe?" |
46367 | When did you get back?" |
46367 | When did you get in?" |
46367 | When do you start?" |
46367 | When would he be back? |
46367 | When yuh gwine, Miss Lindy?" |
46367 | Where did you drive from?" |
46367 | Where did you get these oysters, Miss Ri? |
46367 | Where is he from, Miss Ri?" |
46367 | Where is our paragon, now?" |
46367 | Where is this place that you found it? |
46367 | Where is your buggy? |
46367 | Where was he going next? |
46367 | Who dat come to de gate wi''yuh?" |
46367 | Who do you mean? |
46367 | Who is this young man, Maria, who says he is the great grandson of Cyrus Talbot? |
46367 | Who say I cain''t go see Miss Ri? |
46367 | Who was he to be gallanting her young lady around town? |
46367 | Why did he come here to disturb our peace?" |
46367 | Why did n''t she send you one plain fine handkerchief, if she did n''t want to spend her money for something handsome? |
46367 | Why did n''t you, Linda?" |
46367 | Why do you rattle on in such a brainless way?" |
46367 | Why in the world should you wait? |
46367 | Why should Jeffreys not possess the property as well as Grace? |
46367 | Why should n''t he take the case? |
46367 | Why should she interest herself in a stranger? |
46367 | Why should this ordeal be his to meet? |
46367 | Why?" |
46367 | Will you believe me when I say that you are the first woman I have ever wished to make my wife?" |
46367 | Will you take my other arm, Linda?" |
46367 | Will you tell me all the details? |
46367 | With myself? |
46367 | Wo n''t you come to the fire after your drive?" |
46367 | Would he not always be playing a false part, and would not the result fail of good to him and to her? |
46367 | Would you like one looking out on the river or on the road?" |
46367 | Yet, after all, it would be less lonely with Miss Ri, for had not the dear woman made this a true home for her? |
46367 | You could live in the old home and be happy ever after, only, Verlinda, Verlinda, what would become of Berk?" |
46367 | You do n''t know what''old horse''is? |
46367 | You do n''t mean he thinks_ that''s_ the place to which he lays claim? |
46367 | You have sent it back to the owner?" |
46367 | You see how I discriminate between my size and Phebe''s?" |
46367 | You surely do n''t mean to sit down and twiddle your thumbs?" |
46367 | You who have lost all your nearest and dearest, too? |
46367 | You would n''t deprive him of it?" |
46367 | You''ll be back by then?" |
46367 | You''ll report progress, of course, when you get back?" |
46367 | Your brother sold off Talbot''s Addition, did n''t he?" |
46367 | Your great- grandfather on the Talbot side, is it, Verlinda? |
46367 | Yuh reckon she think I''bleedged to stay? |
46367 | Yuh stay at de big hotel?" |
46367 | [ Illustration:"YOU DON''T IMAGINE HE HAS FALLEN IN LOVE WITH GRACE, DO YOU?"] |
46367 | and did you ever hear what her sister, Mrs. Phil Reed says of her?" |
46367 | and have to use a knife to dissect him before you could find out what he really felt about anything? |
46367 | that is trying, is n''t it? |
48294 | ''Mistress_ Elinor_ Calvert?'' 48294 ''They?'' |
48294 | ''Tis a pretty device, is it not, Thir Chrithtopher? 48294 ''Well,''quoth the friar,''have you a whetstone?'' |
48294 | Accused of what? |
48294 | Ah, do those bright eyes feel the weight of sleep so early? |
48294 | Ah, thou didst never think I had known what it was to love? |
48294 | Ah? |
48294 | Alas,thought the mother,"when did ever my boy find it hard to speak with me before?" |
48294 | Am I in thy way? |
48294 | Am I like to forget it? |
48294 | An innocent man? |
48294 | An''what''s that, pray? |
48294 | And Reuben Early-- was he in liquor too? |
48294 | And after what fashion was that? |
48294 | And canst thou forgive one who can not lay claim to that mantle of love that covers all sins? |
48294 | And cleared in safety? |
48294 | And did you go about it the right way? |
48294 | And didst show it to Neale or Cornwaleys? |
48294 | And didst thou? |
48294 | And hard? |
48294 | And his name? |
48294 | And how do you know, little Peggy, that that is not just the reason why I have asked for your company? 48294 And my stockings with the clocks of gold? |
48294 | And my thilver- broidered doublet? |
48294 | And never told me? |
48294 | And she is very wise too? |
48294 | And she is virtuous and tender and true? |
48294 | And spent much time on the wharf? |
48294 | And stopped at St. Gabriel''s Manor? |
48294 | And then did you see him? |
48294 | And thou wilt help thy mother to go on liking me? |
48294 | And thou? |
48294 | And what changed your purpose? |
48294 | And what did you then? |
48294 | And what dost thou think of when thou art thinking of nothing? |
48294 | And what harm if it do? |
48294 | And what will you do about it? |
48294 | And who is the doer of the deed? |
48294 | And who is to be the leader? |
48294 | And why not, pray? 48294 And why?" |
48294 | And with such pretty points, knowst thou any other that wears points as fine? |
48294 | And you? |
48294 | Are you Captain or I? |
48294 | Are you come as Governor Brent''s messenger? |
48294 | Are you from the charnel- house or from Hell itself? |
48294 | Are you ready for a fight, my men? |
48294 | Are you satisfied with the prisoner''s promise? |
48294 | Art sure it will not try thine endurance too far to dwell so on the past? |
48294 | Art sure thou hast strength to hear it? |
48294 | Art thou really? |
48294 | At what hour does he sup? |
48294 | Ay or no? |
48294 | Ay, but how comes it he is so friendly with that rascal brother of his? |
48294 | Ay, but there is dinner to come, and''tis best to make allowance for this future; besides, who is this at the wharf in the in- bound boat? |
48294 | Ay, but what''s the use of telling a droll story if it be not droll? 48294 Ay, so I would have sworn two hours since; but tell me one thing-- did he and the priest quarrel here at St. Gabriel''s last night?" |
48294 | Ay, the twentieth; and what night was that? |
48294 | Ay,said Elinor, smiling,"but the question is, art thou up to my meaning? |
48294 | Ay,said his wife, laying down the purse she was netting,"and what is that?" |
48294 | Brother,she had answered,"my house is open to all who seek its shelter, and shall I shut its doors to the priests of our Holy Church?" |
48294 | But did he? |
48294 | But how can one tell when one is-- is in love? |
48294 | But how couldst thou have joined in a death struggle and brought home no trace of conflict? |
48294 | But how to follow it? |
48294 | But how to mount the bluff? |
48294 | But how were you on the road to a bishop''s see? 48294 But how, when, where?" |
48294 | But if we find them, what then? 48294 But thou didtht promise, and how oft have I heard thee say,''A promise is a promise''?" |
48294 | But thou wilt stand my friend even if Father Mohl like me not? |
48294 | But who will lock the door? |
48294 | But why was it necessary that thou shouldst be caught in the toils? 48294 But, Humphrey, what can be keeping him?" |
48294 | By what token? |
48294 | Can I be of service to you? |
48294 | Captain Ingle, will you come ashore and try the quality of Romney cheer? |
48294 | Christopher Neville, do you know this knife? |
48294 | Come, then,called Neville more cheerfully, feeling his point half won;"why not come in and smoke with me? |
48294 | Could I not be of use if I went too to the Governor? |
48294 | Couldst not make thy decidence now? |
48294 | Dick,said Ralph Ingle as the two brothers were left alone together,"what treatment might a prisoner look for if brought aboard this ship?" |
48294 | Did that settle it? |
48294 | Did ye hear no noise? 48294 Did ye know Philpotts, then?" |
48294 | Did you ever hear of the miracle of the buttered whetstone? |
48294 | Did you ever tell your love? |
48294 | Did you not ask my help? |
48294 | Did you not say I was worth any twenty Virginians in this expedition? |
48294 | Didst fancy I was like to mithtake thy hands? |
48294 | Do I know him? |
48294 | Do I stand on the platform at the end of the hall where Couthin Mary stands when her tenants come in? |
48294 | Do they? |
48294 | Do ye know what those are? |
48294 | Do ye think, Master Cecil, the black would come off if ye touched one? |
48294 | Do you admire her as much as the other men do? |
48294 | Do you believe this calumny? |
48294 | Do you think I could so escape Hell? |
48294 | Do? 48294 Does Ralph Ingle come here often?" |
48294 | Does Richard Ingle take his meals on board ship or ashore? |
48294 | Does he come alone? |
48294 | Does it bring happiness? |
48294 | Does-- does any one else suspect thee? |
48294 | Done? 48294 Dost know what manner of thing love is?" |
48294 | Dost thou like him? |
48294 | Dost thou mind, Elinor,she said, quickly,"how we were wo nt to make merry on Candlemas Eve at home in England?" |
48294 | Dost thou remember, Betty, the day I set sail from James City in_ The Red Fox_? |
48294 | Dost thou truly? 48294 Elinor, is that thou?" |
48294 | Elinor, what is it to thee what befalls a man whom thou didst meet but yesterday? |
48294 | Father Fisher? 48294 Father, is it a sin to love?" |
48294 | Father, must thou be gone so soon? |
48294 | Fool he is,answered Neale;"who ever knew Dick Ingle other than a fool? |
48294 | For the love of God, talk no more in riddles, but tell me plainly, what is it has changed thee so? 48294 For what purpose?" |
48294 | Gentlemen, are you ready for the test? |
48294 | Girls, have any of you seen this Maryland maid who is staying with Mistress Huntoon? |
48294 | Governor Brent,Ingle spoke in slow, reluctant tones,"did you chance to read the name of the larger packet as we passed?" |
48294 | H''m? |
48294 | Has Sir Christopher Neville left us also? |
48294 | Hast thou ever looked on death? |
48294 | Hast thou seen him? |
48294 | Hast thou spent the morning in the open? |
48294 | Hast thou-- is there any clue? |
48294 | Hath some woman promised thee aught and failed thee? |
48294 | Have I not heard thee say any one might have the training of a child after seven if thou couldst have the teaching of him till then? |
48294 | Have you no feeling? 48294 He doubted_ thee_?" |
48294 | Heard ye that? 48294 Here, in Maryland?" |
48294 | How can I say''ay''or''no''to that? |
48294 | How could she know thee so long, and credit any such base slander? 48294 How dare they?" |
48294 | How dare you? |
48294 | How did the village lie, and what is its name? |
48294 | How did you leave affairs there? |
48294 | How do I know but you want to set the tobacco- house afire? 48294 How do I know? |
48294 | How do you know it is a lie? |
48294 | How far away is she? |
48294 | How goes it? |
48294 | How say you, Huntoon, has your walk given you a zest for an hour''s rest and a bite of good victual? |
48294 | How say you, Mistress Brent, are the terms accepted, and are we ready for the ceremony of investiture? |
48294 | How''s that? 48294 How''s this?" |
48294 | How? |
48294 | Humphrey, thou dost love to argue, but answer me one question, Dost thou put trust in them? |
48294 | Huntoon--? 48294 Hush, Cecil,"said his mother;"where are thy manners? |
48294 | I did not when I was your age,--that''s sure; but I have seen so many worse things since then--"What? |
48294 | I must doff my finery, for who knows when I may need it to receive another tenant? |
48294 | I put thee down? 48294 I?" |
48294 | If I go, wilt thou come up after supper to see me? |
48294 | If my temper did me no credit, who drove me to it? |
48294 | Indeed,sneered his brother,"have a few months in the Brent household turned thee into such a white- livered fellow, half prude, half priest? |
48294 | Is Neville''s knife falling from his garments my own imagining? |
48294 | Is it a falsehood or a truehood? |
48294 | Is it all your fancy painted-- this ride through the forest? |
48294 | Is it indeed illness, or grief? |
48294 | Is it not a pity, my good host, to be shut indoors when the sunshine lies on the river bank and the air is like mellow wine? |
48294 | Is it not enough that there be a dozen here who are convinced of thy guilt? |
48294 | Is it not silly to fear the dark? |
48294 | Is it really so long? |
48294 | Is it too late now to repent? 48294 Is not the ammunition of my providing?" |
48294 | Is not this enough like Hell? |
48294 | Is the name you seek_ Elinor_--_Elinor Calvert_? |
48294 | Is this all? |
48294 | Is this the flower of that confidence through love which you so much admire, Sir Christopher? |
48294 | Is your aunt at home? |
48294 | It is like the days at old Romney Hall, is it not, sweetheart? |
48294 | It is not the same thing as being my tenant? |
48294 | Let us hear, then; who is he that has such poor taste in likings? |
48294 | Master Huntoon,cried Peggy, turning to Romney with a merry eye but a trembling lip,"thinkst, then, thou couldst get up a massacre? |
48294 | Master Ingle? |
48294 | May I come in for nutth? |
48294 | May I tell you? |
48294 | Mistress Brent? |
48294 | Mother, dost take thy son for a baby or a popinjay? |
48294 | Mother, wilt thou sing me a song as thou dost every Candlemas? |
48294 | Mother,broke in Cecil,"wilt thou we d Thir Chrithtopher?" |
48294 | Must it be that, Cecil? 48294 My daughter,"he continued,"is your heart wholly at peace-- firmly stayed upon the living rock?" |
48294 | Nay, I''d stake my life that if we find the tag we find the murderer--"What gives you such assurance? |
48294 | Nay, Margaret, are there not men enough? |
48294 | Nay, no_ ifs_--ay or no? |
48294 | Nay, who shall say what is a clue? 48294 Nay,"answered Romney,"else how account for this?" |
48294 | Neville, so that is her name? |
48294 | No, he is well-- he sent me hither; but-- there has been an accident--"Are you hurt, that you look so white? |
48294 | No,answered the child, gravely,"elthe how could I keep my food in when I eat? |
48294 | Nor any carnal affection threatening to draw thy soul away from the path of salvation? |
48294 | Nor any unworthy wish? |
48294 | Not Master William Claiborne? |
48294 | Not a prick; only a mighty satisfaction that the devil looks so well after his own-- or-- hold-- art thou going to tell all this to God? 48294 Now, Giles,"said his sister,"art thou satisfied at last who is the guilty man?" |
48294 | Now, do you ask for it? |
48294 | Of what art thou thinking? |
48294 | Oh, Margaret, do you think there is any ray of light? |
48294 | Oh, Romney, is it gone so far, in one little fortnight? 48294 Oh, may I really? |
48294 | Oh, only little boys? |
48294 | Oh, what is it? |
48294 | Oh, you mean Mother''s picture; why, of course you may have it, and mine too, which has larger pearls round it,--may he not, Mother? |
48294 | One_ l_ and two_ t''s_? |
48294 | Peggy dear, wilt thou not go below and keep warm? |
48294 | Peggy, Peggy, what have you done? |
48294 | Philpotts, can you see how we are heading? |
48294 | Rather, I should say, of a mind filled with some one person--"Do I look like a love- sick maid? |
48294 | Ready to make a bonfire of yonder town? |
48294 | Ready to open the bung- holes in the tavern barrels? |
48294 | Richard Ingle,said he,"are you drunk or sober?" |
48294 | Richard Ingle? |
48294 | Robin Hood''s Barn? 48294 Said he so indeed? |
48294 | Say? 48294 Say? |
48294 | Shall I not be afraid of her? |
48294 | Shall there be no liberty of conscience? |
48294 | She is living, then? |
48294 | Should I not feel honored by the confidence? |
48294 | So I do not look well enough as I am? |
48294 | So the Maryland picture of poor Claiborne supplies him with all the attributes of the devil, except the horns and hoof? 48294 So you are come to take me to Hell, are you?" |
48294 | So you could not go on living with Mary? 48294 So-- thou-- art-- the son of Master John Neville of Frome House?" |
48294 | Somerset? |
48294 | Still harping on escape? 48294 Swim? |
48294 | Tell me, did the old crone predict aught about-- about your marriage? |
48294 | Tell me, thou dear, wise Mistress Huntoon, can a woman truly love and yet be fain to laugh at herself and her love and her lover? |
48294 | That can not be; and why shouldst thou need pity? |
48294 | That could not be--"No, I feared that was asking too much,Neville said humbly,"but at least thou wilt let me have the boy?" |
48294 | That? |
48294 | The knife came down, and ere I could pull it out I heard steps near by and did run for my life--"Whither didst run? |
48294 | The question is, rather, are you willing to allow my claim upon your far- famed hospitality? |
48294 | Then I may come to see you? |
48294 | Then the winter will be long? |
48294 | Then where comes in the point of thy words? |
48294 | Then why ask his pardon? |
48294 | Then why not give it to him? |
48294 | Then,said Peggy with the characteristic stamp of her foot,"then why say such hard things? |
48294 | Think you all souls are as sensitive as thine? |
48294 | Thinkst thou I would defeat justice, and make myself sharer in such a guilty secret as that? |
48294 | This Indian-- who was he-- did ever you see him before? |
48294 | This night? |
48294 | This very night? |
48294 | Thou dost defend them? |
48294 | Thou knowest? 48294 Thou wilt come with me?" |
48294 | To love purely, with a high and unselfish devotion? |
48294 | To_ pack_? |
48294 | Truly? |
48294 | Understood what? |
48294 | Verily? 48294 Was I smiling? |
48294 | Was he not drowned in a cowardly attempt to escape from a trial he dared not face? |
48294 | Was it all worth while? |
48294 | Was it good news? |
48294 | Was it not under authority of Virginia that I made a settlement at Kent Island? |
48294 | Was the girl English? |
48294 | Wath Couthin Giles ever little-- really little-- like me? |
48294 | Well? |
48294 | Were you bred to the sea? |
48294 | Were you two alone? |
48294 | Wert thou_ sure_? |
48294 | What always changes a man''s purpose? 48294 What am I?" |
48294 | What are these for? |
48294 | What are they doing? 48294 What can I do?" |
48294 | What fools utter such imbecile slander? |
48294 | What for? |
48294 | What for? |
48294 | What if Ellyson prove the better man of the two? |
48294 | What if the maid lose hers with looking at him? 48294 What is the jest?" |
48294 | What is wrong with my nose? 48294 What justice were there in punishing the innocent with the guilty? |
48294 | What matter what befalls me? 48294 What mought his first name ha''been?" |
48294 | What of that? 48294 What part did he play?" |
48294 | What said she? |
48294 | What say ye now, Neale? |
48294 | What stands between us? |
48294 | What thing? |
48294 | What wall? |
48294 | What was it to my father when thou wert in trouble yonder in James City? |
48294 | What would you want if you''d been shut up in this cold hole for a night and a day? |
48294 | What''s that? |
48294 | What''s this talk of witches and witch knives? |
48294 | What''s wanted within there? |
48294 | What? 48294 What?" |
48294 | What? |
48294 | When I came back I was torn with brambles and stained with blood-- of a beast, I told them-- but who could know if I spoke truth? |
48294 | When Mistress Neville grants her gracious permission; and, Cecil, do you think ever you could gain her consent to another thing? |
48294 | Where am I? 48294 Where did she learn it,"wondered Romney,"and she never at Court?" |
48294 | Where did you leave the two? |
48294 | Where''s your voice, man? 48294 Wherefore abroad so early?" |
48294 | Whither art thou bound? |
48294 | Who are concerned in your present plan? |
48294 | Who are mine accusers? |
48294 | Who could have believed it of_ him_ of all men? |
48294 | Who could have thought it? |
48294 | Who cried for help? |
48294 | Who goes there? |
48294 | Who is it? |
48294 | Who is that? |
48294 | Who is the doer of the deed? |
48294 | Who is the man? |
48294 | Who told thee? |
48294 | Why art thou come hither? |
48294 | Why didst thou not stay to speak with him? |
48294 | Why do you not take a chair once more? |
48294 | Why do you think that? |
48294 | Why does he not ask her for the galliard? |
48294 | Why dost thou seek to become my tenant? |
48294 | Why dost thou seek to hurry me so? 48294 Why must you go?" |
48294 | Why not Neville as well as Ingle? 48294 Why not go straight to Governor Brent and give them the lie?" |
48294 | Why not keep it yoursel'', Master? |
48294 | Why not stay now, since''tis already day? |
48294 | Why not? |
48294 | Why take the risk again? 48294 Why, Peggy? |
48294 | Why, how''s this? |
48294 | Why, where is Captain Ingle''s ship? |
48294 | Why? |
48294 | Will he never come? |
48294 | Will it help ye? |
48294 | Will you do something for me? |
48294 | Will you pass by the road where Father Mohl was murdered? |
48294 | Without fail? |
48294 | Would Couthin Mary tell a lie? |
48294 | Wouldst have the bear eat thy mother? |
48294 | Ye remember the murder of Father Mohl? |
48294 | Yes, Poppet, what is it? |
48294 | Yes, but how is it that he is gone? 48294 Yes, but--""Did not Kent belong to Virginia by right of a charter antedating the patent of that upstart, Calvert?" |
48294 | Yes,said Romney, eagerly;"and what like was he?" |
48294 | Yet you would not have the guilty escape? |
48294 | You cared a little for me, then, in the old days? |
48294 | You found it? |
48294 | You have been at St. Mary''s for some days? |
48294 | You knew the blasphemer, then? |
48294 | You know him? |
48294 | You think so? |
48294 | You were in love once? |
48294 | You will give me an answer to take to him? |
48294 | You would not care to dance with a girl from Maryland, would you, Captain Snow? |
48294 | You? |
48294 | _ Forgive?_ Dearest,_ I love thee_! |
48294 | _ Good!_--I to thee? 48294 _ Her?_"asked Romney, with a fine show of indifference. |
48294 | _ The Reformation?_exclaimed Huntoon. |
48294 | ''So you''re come to take me to Hell, are you?'' |
48294 | ''Tis no baby thou hadst thought me, Mother, hadst thou seen me wrestling with Ralph Ingle? |
48294 | ''Twas spoken like a man, and Peggy-- what said she?" |
48294 | A soft voice from Richard Ingle''s right answered,"Think you not''twere as well to leave the name of God out of the business? |
48294 | After a pause given to meditation he resumed,--"What makes folks die?" |
48294 | Ah, Cecil, how fares it with thee?" |
48294 | Ah, what''s that beyond the headland? |
48294 | Ah, what? |
48294 | All she said was,--"Then why did she ask thy help?" |
48294 | Aloud he said,"And did the disappointment drive you out of England, the country named after your forefathers?" |
48294 | Am I to wear my morocco shoes with the red satin roses?" |
48294 | And Thir Chrithtopher Neville must kneel before me; and how if I tickle him on the neck when he bends, and make him laugh out before them all?" |
48294 | And everlasting damnation to the enemies of-- shall we say the King, or the Parliament?" |
48294 | And how do you know that Mistress Brent desires your company?" |
48294 | And pray what of it?" |
48294 | And those purple eyes, why were they so sad? |
48294 | And thou wilt come with Cecil to see how the land fares from time to time?" |
48294 | And what do you say to the silver flagons fine? |
48294 | And what say you, then, to this? |
48294 | And who are they who have faced all these things for their religion? |
48294 | And who was that beside him-- Ralph Ingle? |
48294 | Answer me, Peggy,"and holding her face between his hands he gazed deep into her eyes,"Dost thou love Romney Huntoon?" |
48294 | Are you glad?" |
48294 | At length looking up timidly she asked,--"Think you I could ever be like her?" |
48294 | At length the child gave up the search and called aloud,--"Where art thou?" |
48294 | At length, making the sign of the cross, he spoke aside to Father White,--"Have I leave to depart?" |
48294 | Begin then!--What first?" |
48294 | Besides, men never forget the obedience to women they learn at their mother''s knee-- or over it--"Is it not so, Father?" |
48294 | But of the quarrel-- did you see Richard Ingle after?" |
48294 | But thou-- what wilt thou do?" |
48294 | But what hath put this fancy in thy head?" |
48294 | But what?" |
48294 | But why do I dwell at such length upon a trifle? |
48294 | But why under heaven did he conceal the whole business from me?" |
48294 | CHAPTER VII IN GOOD GREEN WOOD"Now what say you, Mistress Peggy?" |
48294 | CHAPTER XIX THE ROLLING YEAR"Is he better to- day?" |
48294 | CHAPTER XXII CANDLEMAS EVE"Couthin Marget, dost think the ground- hog can see his shadow when he comes out of his hole to- morrow?" |
48294 | Call you that hospitality, to keep the best for himself?" |
48294 | Can I help in lifting the body?" |
48294 | Can I lie with him at night and eat and drink by day with my arm locked in his? |
48294 | Canst thou wonder that he accuses me?" |
48294 | Cease thy jesting and tell me is that_ The Lady Betty_, or is it not?" |
48294 | Claiborne, how many have you in your command?" |
48294 | Considering the nature of the matter in hand, is it not just possible that He might take offence?" |
48294 | Couldst not choose some gentler name?" |
48294 | Cousin!--art thou hurt?" |
48294 | Did he or did he not start out into the night after the quarrel with Father Mohl?" |
48294 | Did not the old masters paint Our Lady from the women around them, and none so fair as you?" |
48294 | Did the devil tell you? |
48294 | Did you think you were the only person honored with an invitation? |
48294 | Did you?" |
48294 | Didst thou quarrel with Father Mohl?" |
48294 | Do ghosts walk nowadays dost thou think, Cecil?" |
48294 | Do yonder fellows know anything of the prospect of the arrest?" |
48294 | Do you bring any news of that good- for- nothing brother of mine?" |
48294 | Do you hear? |
48294 | Do you or do you not recognize my authority?" |
48294 | Do you think I ought?" |
48294 | Do you think they are all like that?" |
48294 | Dost think Cousin Giles would ever speak with me again if I deserted thee? |
48294 | Dost thou know what a tenant is?" |
48294 | Dost thou love me, dear, still? |
48294 | Dost thou think he did it?" |
48294 | Doth it not smack of deceit and treachery?" |
48294 | Durst thou expose him to the influence of such an example?" |
48294 | Elinor would not? |
48294 | Elinor, are there fire- arms in the house?" |
48294 | Finally she broke the pause, saying,"Do you remember what night the last was?" |
48294 | Gabriel''s?" |
48294 | Gabriel''s?" |
48294 | Giles,''tis but a little while since thou didst urge my taking Christopher Neville for my tenant yonder at Cecil Manor; and why? |
48294 | Governor Brent-- is he killed?" |
48294 | Had he so nearly reached the goal to fail at last? |
48294 | Had her nature sharp peaks, crevasses, and unsunned slopes? |
48294 | Hast thou brandy?" |
48294 | Hast thou lived to nigh forty years, to be hurt like a boy by a woman''s inconstancy? |
48294 | Have I a black smooch on my nose, or did I talk too much or laugh too loud that you look so-- so-- so righteously disapproving?" |
48294 | Have I deserved this?" |
48294 | Have I room in my heart for pity of any save myself?" |
48294 | Have you not deserved death at my hands?" |
48294 | He smiled, but he repeated the question;"How dost thou know it is a lie?" |
48294 | How can I when I know every word will be twisted to one fell purpose?" |
48294 | How can he?" |
48294 | How can it be that thou who hadst the wit to deal with Ingle shouldst so have lost thy head here?" |
48294 | How canst thou talk so bold?" |
48294 | How could Brent have heard of the quarrel when he was absent? |
48294 | How could you manage your home- coming? |
48294 | How say you, Cecil,--wilt thou lend me those cheeks of thine for cushions?" |
48294 | How say you, Master Boniface, would it not be well to compel the traitor to drink himself to death at the expense of the Lord Proprietary?" |
48294 | How wouldst thou have prospered in a Puritan colony?" |
48294 | How_ can_ you smile?" |
48294 | Huntoon started up; but Peggy checked him:"Master Huntoon, will you take me to my brother? |
48294 | I ask once more, have you any confession to make?" |
48294 | I do not like the dark, do you?" |
48294 | I thank you all heartily; and now will you please put your helm about, and head the ketch for St. Mary''s with what speed you may?" |
48294 | If I do, I''ll send you word-- and by the way, so that I may not forget, what is your name?" |
48294 | If that condemns me, protests are vain; if that acquits me, who in the end shall be able to stand against me?'' |
48294 | If the adorable is to be adored and the lovable to be loved, why was not the kissable to be kissed? |
48294 | In God''s name, how didst thou know?" |
48294 | Ingle must look a deal like Lucifer; and Michael-- Mother, dost not think Michael must look rather like Master Neville?" |
48294 | Inigo''s?" |
48294 | Is a man to sit still and listen in silence to a pack of lies told about his friend?" |
48294 | Is he within?" |
48294 | Is not that a sign of a vacant mind?" |
48294 | Is not that reason enough?" |
48294 | Is not this all true so far, Cousin?" |
48294 | Is she with you?" |
48294 | Is that his knock at the door?" |
48294 | Is that true?" |
48294 | Is the murder of yonder priest of my own imagining?" |
48294 | Is there any reason why I should not kill you? |
48294 | Is''t not a silly verse?" |
48294 | It must be the left garter too, so I took it, and knit three knots in it, and then with my eyes shut I said the rhyme--""What rhyme?" |
48294 | Just now Cecil was pressing close to her side and whispering in her ear,--"Mamma, did Thir Chrithtopher Neville kill the priest? |
48294 | Kiss me and say, dost not feel it so?" |
48294 | Know you anything of his family?" |
48294 | Landlord, bring out your ale, and all good fellows shall drink with me a health to-- let me see; shall it be Charles, or Oliver? |
48294 | Let me ask but one question, Do you hold with your brother in his treason?" |
48294 | Margaret Brent had entered unperceived, and now her questioning eyes said,"Who wore it?" |
48294 | Mary''s?" |
48294 | Mary''s?" |
48294 | Mary''s?" |
48294 | May I hope that Flora will tread the pavan with me later?" |
48294 | May I talk of it now?" |
48294 | May not I too be a bidden guest?" |
48294 | May not our course take me past her window, that I may at least wave a good- bye?" |
48294 | May we count on you and your son to be on the wharf with your firearms to- morrow, an hour or so past noon?" |
48294 | Mistress Brent, is the ceremony ended?" |
48294 | Mother, if Thir Chrithtopher Neville married thee would he bear the Calvert crest?" |
48294 | My regards to Sir William Berkeley when you return-- and when is that to be?" |
48294 | Neale, you have your eye to the chink in the shutter?" |
48294 | None feel responsibility for those who are neither kith nor kin save where they--""Where they what?" |
48294 | Now what befell the ketch?" |
48294 | Now what say you to''God and the Parliament''?" |
48294 | Now, Mary, have I not told thee and Giles that I would hear of no such plan? |
48294 | Now, one more question: when you came in that night did you, or did you not, crave blessing and absolution from Father White?" |
48294 | Now, was it all worth while?" |
48294 | Now, what is a poor maid to do under such distracting confusions?" |
48294 | Now, what say you? |
48294 | Now, where is dear old Philpotts?" |
48294 | Of law and leases? |
48294 | Of what was Neville thinking as he knelt there on the step of the dais? |
48294 | Of what, then? |
48294 | Oh, Christopher, canst thou forgive me?" |
48294 | Oh, my daughter, hast thou not before found comfort at the confessional, at the foot of the altar? |
48294 | Oh, what?" |
48294 | Peggy rushed on, all in confusion--"not in beauty, of course, nor in mind, but could I make my character like hers? |
48294 | Perhaps''tis too much to ask, but could you find it in your heart to bear me company in one more troublous time, one more life- risk?" |
48294 | Philpotts, will you kindly put about that helm?" |
48294 | Related to Robert Philpot of Kent?" |
48294 | Saidst thou not so in bed this morning, Mother?" |
48294 | Say now, was I not scratching and biting valiantly?" |
48294 | Say you not so?" |
48294 | Say, Elinor, wilt thou take this man for thy tenant? |
48294 | See you not why I can not bear to have you think ill of me?" |
48294 | Shall I go in her, Captain Ingle?" |
48294 | Shall I name thee one?" |
48294 | Shall I swear by these and doubt the laws that rule a soul?" |
48294 | Shall I tell thee whose picture dwells in my soul by day and night, Elinor?" |
48294 | Shall we wipe the slate and begin again?" |
48294 | Show me Fate and I will show you the will of a man; but what have you there in your hand?" |
48294 | Sir Christopher, will you hear the evidence against you?" |
48294 | Tell me first what do they say? |
48294 | The gentleman that came last night? |
48294 | The wretch did make confession to Father White, and of what, thinkst thou?" |
48294 | Then aloud,"Cecil, wilt thou close thine eyes and come down to me when thou hast counted a hundred?" |
48294 | Then as soon as they were out of hearing,"Romney, what is the matter? |
48294 | Then as though the question were the most natural and casual one she asked,--"When are you to marry?" |
48294 | Then, breaking off and looking toward the staircase, he exclaimed,"In the name of Venus and Cupid, who is_ that_?" |
48294 | Then, with great impressiveness,"_ It was the Eve of St. Agnes._""And what of that?" |
48294 | There, go back and tell that to the devil, will you?" |
48294 | Think you I shall ever find it?" |
48294 | Think you could we draw the lips more together and close the eyelids above that horrible stare?" |
48294 | Thinkst thou a man''s soul is changed in a day or two days or a week? |
48294 | Thir Chrithtopher, why doth God care more for the heart than for the head and legs?" |
48294 | Was Richard Ingle drunk or sober?" |
48294 | Was any with thee when thou didst find the knife?" |
48294 | Was ever any one in your family hung?" |
48294 | Was he glad or sorry? |
48294 | Was it likely that the heart of the young man who walked with the rein over his arm was less jubilant than the scene around him? |
48294 | Was it luck or fate that guided him? |
48294 | Was it of Cecil and his manor? |
48294 | Was she really Elinor Calvert, or a corpse like the one which lay scarcely more white in the middle of the room? |
48294 | Was this the pattern of perfection she had wasted so many thoughts upon,--this woman whose faith broke at the first trial? |
48294 | What are the Calverts themselves? |
48294 | What does it mean?" |
48294 | What gypsy would ever get her palm crossed with silver twice by a maiden, if she failed to promise her a husband?" |
48294 | What have they found, seen, imagined?" |
48294 | What hour o''the clock is it?" |
48294 | What in God''s name can I do or say more?" |
48294 | What is a poor man to do, when asking is presumption, and not asking is dulness?" |
48294 | What is all this tale of thine when sifted? |
48294 | What is he to us? |
48294 | What is it, then, but jail- breaking?" |
48294 | What is your love to mine? |
48294 | What plea are you fain to enter,''guilty''or''not guilty''?" |
48294 | What reason have they? |
48294 | What said she of his looks?" |
48294 | What was it all to thee?" |
48294 | What was the fun of having men struggle for the privilege of talking with her? |
48294 | What was this the men were bearing to her door? |
48294 | What wilt thou have me sing?" |
48294 | What''s that craft yonder by the wooded point?" |
48294 | What''s the use of weeping when thou hast me here safe and sound? |
48294 | What?" |
48294 | When Brent had finished Huntoon said,--"Did he-- was death natural?" |
48294 | When he fell, two men picked him up and one asked,''Whither shall we carry him?'' |
48294 | Where are the gentlemen? |
48294 | Where are you?" |
48294 | Where is he? |
48294 | Where is she?" |
48294 | Who could say what was passing? |
48294 | Who else had that bearing, with its strange blending of a dignity too unconscious to be majestic, with a simplicity too dignified to be wholly simple? |
48294 | Who ever heard of the Brents till they sprang up like mushrooms in this new world? |
48294 | Who is he? |
48294 | Who is that outside the door? |
48294 | Who knows but my love may draw him into the right path?" |
48294 | Who shall say? |
48294 | Who, then, hath taken him by force?" |
48294 | Who?" |
48294 | Why did all present suddenly shrink back as if a leper stood among them? |
48294 | Why do these impulses so often come too late to all of us? |
48294 | Why dost thou look so white and strange?" |
48294 | Why not make it''Wives for us all''?" |
48294 | Why will he never give the other fellow a chance?" |
48294 | Why, all of a sudden, was his brow cleared of its furrows, and his mind of its worries for the moment? |
48294 | Will he have horns and a tail like the devil?" |
48294 | Will that bring Christopher Neville to life? |
48294 | Will that save his poor heart one of the pangs my distrust dealt, or his faithful soul one hour of the weary years my cold disdain cost him? |
48294 | Will you not tell me why?" |
48294 | Wilt thou have me for thy tenant on shares-- three quarters of the harvest to go to thee and one quarter to me?" |
48294 | Wilt thou in good earnest condemn me to despair?" |
48294 | Would she chide him if she did? |
48294 | Would she feel it, he wondered? |
48294 | Years ago he loved me and I loved him, and we would have wedded but for--""But for what, Elinor?" |
48294 | You do mean to ask her again?" |
48294 | You killed Father Mohl?" |
48294 | [ Illustration] With a mocking smile he thrummed and sang:"''Pray, what are women like unto? |
48294 | and pray what dost think of me? |
48294 | and why?" |
48294 | cried Cecil, anxious to be a hero, but conscious of a painful sinking at the pit of his stomach,"what manner of man is this Ingle? |
48294 | exclaimed Cecil,"wert thou once as beautiful as that?" |
48294 | exclaimed Father White,"was thy conscience so dead thou didst feel no pricks at accepting hospitality,--thou, a murderer?" |
48294 | he murmured,"were not things in this unhappy colony tangled enough without this new trouble? |
48294 | he said, pointing Huntoon to the eastward;"is that yonder Watkins Point or a bank of fog?" |
48294 | he thought to himself,"so the wind blows from that quarter, does it? |
48294 | is this not she coming down the path?" |
48294 | is''t not writ as I have said?" |
48294 | queried Peggy,"and just seen Mistress Calvert? |
48294 | said Neville aloud, as if the writer of the note were near; and may not souls draw near as well as bodies? |
48294 | sighed Romney, in the folly of his youth,"what care I what the_ King_ might say, if the_ Queen_ will not listen to me?" |
48294 | then jealously,"Perhaps you think she''s too good for me?" |
48294 | would those dark- fringed eyes never open? |
48294 | you say; and how, pray, am I to hold him when I have no jail save my two hands? |
