33665 | ''That so? 33665 Also, do you feel any special antagonism to Marvel? |
33665 | And that is--? |
33665 | And what have you to do with Ruth, or her mother? |
33665 | Are you comfy? 33665 Ca n''t the washerwoman do that ironing?" |
33665 | Child!--Do you suppose it was an easy thing for me to come into your father''s life and take your mother''s place while she still lived? 33665 Courage?" |
33665 | Dear family, you do n''t_ want_ me to go? 33665 Dear people, what do you look so frightened for?" |
33665 | Did you ever hear that epigram of Disraeli-- that all men should marry, but no women? 33665 Did you ever know a Withacre to be lacking in words, Benjamin? |
33665 | Do n''t you care for me at all, Ruth? |
33665 | Do you know what Lucretia said to me, Mary? |
33665 | Do you mean it is my fault, Marvel? |
33665 | Do you mean to-- to_ leave_ Marvel and me? |
33665 | Do you think a woman who has suffered willingly gives her children over to the same fate? |
33665 | Do you think the antagonism lies{ 143} between you and me-- or between you and our circumstances? |
33665 | Do your family approve of this marriage? |
33665 | Eh? 33665 Have you ever saved any money{ 14} of your own earning, or have you any property in your own name?" |
33665 | How do you do, Mr. Lannithorne? 33665 How do you know it is just a whim, Lucretia?" |
33665 | I have been wondering if I unconsciously neglected Desire? 33665 Is coziness to be the end of our living?" |
33665 | It seems a little curious, does n''t it? 33665 Marvel-- don''t you_ love_ me at all?" |
33665 | Might n''t it be-- er-- a very violent attachment? |
33665 | Mr. Raynie, what do the women want? 33665 Mrs. Lannithorne, have you any objection to letting Ruth marry me?" |
33665 | Oh, what is the use of talking,she cried,"or of casting stones at other women? |
33665 | Oh,--mother? 33665 Oliver Pickersgill?" |
33665 | Pardon me, but are n''t you overdoing your generosity, Arnold? |
33665 | Really, Clarissa,_ that_ is the first sensible thing you have said this{ 149} afternoon,he forced himself to say.--"Why, what''s this?" |
33665 | Remember-- remember what? |
33665 | See here,I says,"I ai n''t going to let no mining man dictate to me, see? |
33665 | She knows what''s fair, does she? 33665 So you want to marry Peter Lannithorne''s daughter, do you? |
33665 | Then I take it mother is not scholarly? |
33665 | They sent you to me, did they, boy? 33665 They sound like fine things, do n''t they, Benjamin?" |
33665 | To--? |
33665 | Well, Marvel? |
33665 | Well, Stub, has Lucretia been here? |
33665 | What ails you, Clarissa? 33665 What became of Desire''s married happiness, Mary? |
33665 | What could I say, Uncle Ben? 33665 What does she say?" |
33665 | What has boarding to do with it? |
33665 | What is it, Desire? |
33665 | What is wrong in her married life? 33665 What right, I wish to know? |
33665 | What''s that? |
33665 | What_ right_ has she? |
33665 | When they have dethroned their God and repudiated their families, what is there left to worship and work for but themselves? |
33665 | Where did I get that name? |
33665 | Why cook when I hated it? |
33665 | Why, indeed?--but why drag in Humanity? 33665 Will you take me in, Uncle Ben?" |
33665 | You heard about the fire? 33665 You, too? |
33665 | ''How long you been here?'' |
33665 | ''What''s got_ you_ that you did n''t stay put?'' |
33665 | A Paul who could demand cheerfully as he took his second cup of coffee,"Well, Clarissa, am I the Tyrant Man this morning?" |
33665 | After all, did he dare say that his wife would never{ 18} suffer? |
33665 | Ai n''t it awful? |
33665 | Also, how could Desire be so guiltless of all the thousand scruples and delicacies that were her birthright? |
33665 | Am I to infer that you sympathize with Desire?" |
33665 | And then along comes the Westerner--""Where did they meet?" |
33665 | And what did they tell you to ask me? |
33665 | And why should I give up my work to stay here? |
33665 | Are n''t there really any happy times for married people, ever? |
33665 | Are there any men in the world who have n''t given way at least_ once_ about something or other?--are there, father?" |
33665 | Are you and mother miserable? |
33665 | Are{ 74} self- centred people ever capable of great passions?" |
33665 | At last he asked,--"What kind of a man is Peter Lannithorne?" |
33665 | But if Arnold Ackroyd likes me, I_ must_ be all right, must n''t I? |
33665 | But, the man was wondering dumbly, what became of other men to whom this thing really happened? |
33665 | Can money buy you too?" |
33665 | Can money buy you, too? |
33665 | Can you shelter her soul as well as her body? |
33665 | Could it really be that it was not the divine thing it seemed when he and Ruth looked into each other''s eyes? |
33665 | Did it crush them all like_ this_? |
33665 | Did n''t she throw us away, father and me, once{ 170} and for all? |
33665 | Did n''t thirty years of affection{ 96} and indulgence give me some rights in her life? |
33665 | Did that lecture you delivered before the Saturday Afternoon Club go to your head?" |
33665 | Did the Herr Professor send them?" |
33665 | Did the little red and yellow chrysanthemums do well this year? |
33665 | Did you have any in- laws?'' |
33665 | Do I make myself clear? |
33665 | Do I need to explain the Ackroyds to any one? |
33665 | Do n''t it seem perfectly ridiculous that when you want to shake a man you ca n''t just_ shake_ him, without all this to- do?'' |
33665 | Do n''t you realize that_ I can do good work for humanity?_ Everybody ca n''t do that. |
33665 | Do n''t you see I ca n''t bear it?" |
33665 | Do n''t you see what ails your father''s point of view, and my wife''s? |
33665 | Do n''t you understand it at{ 204} all,--the warm, comforted, easeful feeling that encompasses you when you come in the door, or raise the tent- flap? |
33665 | Do you forbid Ruth and me to marry-- is that it?" |
33665 | Do you remember old Mrs. Knowles saying that she loved to sit at the window and"see the people going pro and con in the street?" |
33665 | Do you suppose when that hour comes to you that you''ll want to remember his grandfather was a convict? |
33665 | Do you think I can have been at fault in this matter?" |
33665 | Do you think that you have shown{ 15} me that your qualifications are adequate?" |
33665 | Does it seem any better to you for being the finer variety?" |
33665 | Does she write?" |
33665 | Finally she demanded of me,"Marvel, what ails this flat?" |
33665 | For my children shall be their children.--Uncle Ben, will Arnold take me home?" |
33665 | Had she not chosen the better, though more barren, part? |
33665 | Had she not fought a good fight? |
33665 | He was a man used to getting what he wanted, and when he became bewitched-- can''t you see how it would all work together? |
33665 | Her club paper on"After the Home-- What?" |
33665 | How about that marigold border I planted in the kitchen garden? |
33665 | How am I to suppose that they know best about Ruth and me?" |
33665 | How can I possibly leave my work? |
33665 | How can you love anybody when you''re a hundred miles from a matinee? |
33665 | How could any one refuse to share such a radiant life when it was offered? |
33665 | How could she exhibit such poverty of spirit, bravely and unashamed? |
33665 | How did it happen that she, of all people, showed herself so ignorant of the things that can not be learned? |
33665 | How did they keep up hope, decency, honor? |
33665 | How did they preserve their interest in the game and make life worth living afterward? |
33665 | How do I know you are not like that?" |
33665 | How many men marry{ 19} without being sure that they have even so much to offer? |
33665 | How much ought he to be influenced by{ 34} Mrs. Lannithorne''s passionate protests and his father''s stern warnings? |
33665 | How should she know, poor, petted little scrap, any thing about the predestined pitfalls of all flesh? |
33665 | How was it possible to grow old without such memories to feed her withering heart upon? |
33665 | How will you face that down?" |
33665 | How would that suit you, Paul?" |
33665 | Humanity? |
33665 | I refuse to let them pay.--Will you help me, Uncle Ben? |
33665 | I wonder if we could n''t arrange with Myra Ann to come back in the fall? |
33665 | If she really wants to enrich life for others, and she says she does, why, in Heaven''s name, does n''t she hold up Arnold Ackroyd''s hands? |
33665 | If, as his heart told him, there was nothing to be afraid of, why were his elders thus cautious and terrified? |
33665 | In return, is it too much to ask that she be assured a roof over her head, food to her mouth, clothes to her body? |
33665 | In what long- forgotten hour of stress had she once seen the flame of daffodils burn{ 199} bright against an April sun? |
33665 | Is Marvel called to be motherless?" |
33665 | Is married life something to be afraid of? |
33665 | Is there anything more you want, mother?" |
33665 | Is your arm strong? |
33665 | Is your heart loyal? |
33665 | It may be miserable for other people, but how could it be miserable for Ruth and me?" |
33665 | Mary, how long have you known about this deplorable affair?" |
33665 | No love? |
33665 | No tenderness anywhere in life for him? |
33665 | Oh, do n''t you know what I mean? |
33665 | One does not marry for a playmate, does one? |
33665 | Ought n''t one to try to be safe?" |
33665 | Raynie?" |
33665 | Say, what does your husband do?'' |
33665 | She is philanthropic, or humanitarian, or something like that? |
33665 | She lectures? |
33665 | Still, if I were-- what is mother like? |
33665 | Surely-- why-- you_ ca n''t_ want me to go?" |
33665 | Take it from me that this{ 27} is gospel truth, ca n''t you? |
33665 | That day she told Paul she would leave him, he had brought her daffodils.--Had_ Paul_ felt like this? |
33665 | Then what does she say about marrying you?" |
33665 | Then, what use to live? |
33665 | There was something about her-- was it the length of curling lashes veiling her eyes? |
33665 | Uncle Ben, did n''t you ever long for a life that fitted you exactly,-- a life that was the flexible, soft garment of your very Self? |
33665 | Uncle Ben, do you think it has gone out? |
33665 | Was it not better to utter none of them? |
33665 | Was n''t he humanity? |
33665 | We now have an attractive set of eggless breakfasts.--Does all this sound like a model house keeper writing to a domestic journal? |
33665 | Well, now, what is there in the idea of marrying a jail- bird''s child that you find especially attractive?" |
33665 | Were n''t the evidences of her worth right under my eyes? |
33665 | Were you born so? |
33665 | What am I to do if I go to her?" |
33665 | What did this mean? |
33665 | What do they expect in this world, anyhow? |
33665 | What do you mean?" |
33665 | What does she expect? |
33665 | What kind of--? |
33665 | What made you change your mind? |
33665 | What right, indeed, had she to expect self- sacrifice, tenderness, cherishing, from the flesh of her flesh? |
33665 | What was it, after all, this adventure of the married life{ 32} whereof these seasoned travelers spoke so dubiously? |
33665 | What''d you think? |
33665 | When will it be most convenient for her to come? |
33665 | Where did those daffodils come from? |
33665 | Where did you get it? |
33665 | Where my victories? |
33665 | Where were my battles? |
33665 | Why do you wish to{ 172} make my going easy? |
33665 | Why not marry where there is no taint?" |
33665 | Why should I do what others can do better? |
33665 | Why should she think she could take me back any more than father? |
33665 | Will you ask Arnold to let me try again? |
33665 | Yet for what other end was their strength given them? |
33665 | You yourself, of what are you sure? |
33665 | _"You, too? |
33665 | or the exquisite color that came and went in her cheeks? |
33665 | or the tendrils of fair hair the warm wind lifted on her forehead? |
33665 | { 10}"Ought n''t I to speak to your mother?" |
33665 | { 137}"Do you mean you would rather_ board?_"Clarissa stared. |
33665 | { 13}"Mr. Pickersgill, what are your qualifications for the care of a wife and family?" |
33665 | { 145} Nevertheless, when he spoke, he only said,"And Marvel? |
33665 | { 171}"Are you quite sure you are completely finished, dear? |
33665 | { 21}"Mrs. Lannithorne, what do you wish me to understand from all this? |
33665 | { 30}"Father--?" |
33665 | { 69}"But what does it all amount to, anyhow?" |
33665 | { 70}"Who is the other man?" |
49579 | An earl,Mr. Havisham went on,"is frequently of very ancient lineage----""What''s that?" |
49579 | And I was the person who was kind to them-- was I? |
49579 | And he''s one of your acquaintances, is he? |
49579 | And what did she say to that? |
49579 | And what else would you do if you were rich? |
49579 | And what would you like to do for him? |
49579 | And what would_ you_ do in such a case? |
49579 | And who is Jake? |
49579 | And why? |
49579 | And you think I must be proud of it, do you? |
49579 | Are we here? |
49579 | Are you going to write him a letter now? |
49579 | Are you quite sure you want me? |
49579 | Are you the Earl? |
49579 | Been neglecting it-- has he? |
49579 | Ca n''t I go myself? |
49579 | Ca n''t they? |
49579 | Can I give it to her this minute? 49579 Can I have it now?" |
49579 | Can you write? |
49579 | D- does it j- jolt y- you? |
49579 | Dearest,he said,"this is a very pretty house, is n''t it? |
49579 | Did you get here, Mary? |
49579 | Did you sleep well? |
49579 | Do n''t you? |
49579 | Do you find it too large? |
49579 | Do you know her? |
49579 | Do you know,he said,"I do n''t know what an earl is?" |
49579 | Do you know,he said,"why I have come here?" |
49579 | Do you like the house? |
49579 | Do you miss your mother very much? |
49579 | Do you think I shall make a good companion? |
49579 | Do you think it will do? |
49579 | Do you think you could do it? |
49579 | Do you wish to see it? |
49579 | Do you? |
49579 | Do you? |
49579 | Do you_ never_ forget about your mother? |
49579 | Does she want me to go out with her, Mary? |
49579 | England is a long way off, is n''t it? |
49579 | Fauntleroy,he said at last,"what are you thinking of?" |
49579 | Glad to see me, are you? |
49579 | Have n''t? |
49579 | He does, eh? |
49579 | He need not go to- night? |
49579 | He will stay with me to- night? |
49579 | How do you do, grand- aunt? |
49579 | How do you do, ma''am? |
49579 | How do you feel? |
49579 | How far is it? |
49579 | I am a very little boy,he said rather wistfully,"to live in such a large castle, and have so many big rooms-- don''t you think so?" |
49579 | I suppose you think you are very fond of her? |
49579 | I suppose,said the Earl,"that you would much prefer that he should not be the Earl of Dorincourt?" |
49579 | In striking contrast to what his grandfather was, eh? |
49579 | Is it Dearest? 49579 Is it Lord Fauntleroy?" |
49579 | Is it because they like me, Dearest? |
49579 | Is it, indeed? |
49579 | Is not that enough? |
49579 | Is there anything you want,the Earl asked;"anything you have not?" |
49579 | It j- jolts a g- goo- good deal-- do- doesn''t it? |
49579 | It seems a pity my birthday was n''t on the Fourth, does n''t it? 49579 It''s a beautiful place, is n''t it?" |
49579 | It''s a very big house for just two people to live in, is n''t it? |
49579 | It''s a warm night, is n''t it? |
49579 | It''s an American game, is n''t it? 49579 May I come here again and talk this matter over?" |
49579 | May I go to Dearest now? |
49579 | May I pull that little table over here to your chair? |
49579 | May I whisper? |
49579 | Mine-- like the things up stairs? |
49579 | Mine? |
49579 | Mr. Hobbs,he said,"do you remember what we were talking about yesterday morning?" |
49579 | Mrs. Errol, I believe? |
49579 | Must I? |
49579 | No? |
49579 | None about female earls? |
49579 | Not-- not to see Dearest? |
49579 | Now,he inquired,"what must I say?" |
49579 | Ristycratic, is it? |
49579 | Shall I be your boy, even if I''m not going to be an earl? |
49579 | Shall I be your boy, just as I was before? |
49579 | Shall I bring you the pen and ink? 49579 Straight- limbed and well enough to look at?" |
49579 | That other boy,he said rather tremulously--"he will have to-- to be your boy now-- as I was-- won''t he?" |
49579 | That''s it, is it? 49579 That''s your opinion, is it?" |
49579 | Tired? |
49579 | Want to get off? |
49579 | Was it you who sent the cat? |
49579 | We always will like it, wo n''t we? |
49579 | We liked this little house, Dearest, did n''t we? |
49579 | Well,he said;"well, Havisham, come back, have you? |
49579 | Well,said Cedric,"we have been friends for a great many years, have n''t we?" |
49579 | Well? |
49579 | Wha-- what did you say your name was? |
49579 | What does his mother think of you? |
49579 | What does it say? |
49579 | What does that mean? |
49579 | What is it? 49579 What is it?" |
49579 | What is it? |
49579 | What is that? |
49579 | What is there? |
49579 | What shall you tell him? |
49579 | What was Mr. Hobbs''s opinion of earls? |
49579 | What would you get for yourself, if you were rich? |
49579 | What would_ you_ do in this case? |
49579 | What''s that? |
49579 | What''s that? |
49579 | What, Molyneux,she said,"is this the child?" |
49579 | Where did you get that? |
49579 | Where''s the child? |
49579 | Where''s your hat? |
49579 | Where,he said,"is Lord Fauntleroy?" |
49579 | Who are they? |
49579 | Who do they belong to? |
49579 | Who is Dearest? |
49579 | Who is your grandfather? |
49579 | Who''s Newick? |
49579 | Whose pony is it? |
49579 | Will it do if I write it? 49579 Will they take Dearest''s house away from her-- and her carriage?" |
49579 | Wo n''t he? 49579 Would he have loved me,"said the Earl dryly,"if you had told him why I did not receive you at the Castle?" |
49579 | Would you like me to help you? |
49579 | Would you like to see it? 49579 Yes,"said Cedric, rather hesitatingly,"and-- and earls; do n''t you know?" |
49579 | Yes,said Cedric;"but just when Mary came for me, you know?" |
49579 | You have, have you? 49579 You think you ca n''t put it off?" |
49579 | You think,said Mr. Hobbs,"there''s no getting out of it?" |
49579 | You_ must_ go and see your mother this afternoon? |
49579 | And then Dick----""Who is Dick?" |
49579 | And then he added:"Well, what is it this morning, Mordaunt? |
49579 | And you see Michael had the fever----""Who''s Michael?" |
49579 | At last he looked up"Does Newick know all about the people?" |
49579 | But you know all about it, do n''t you?" |
49579 | Ca n''t I_ not_ be one?" |
49579 | Can I go and look at it?" |
49579 | Did you tell Dearest that? |
49579 | Do n''t you?" |
49579 | Do you know,"with some delicate hesitation,"that people are sometimes mistaken about earls when they do n''t know them? |
49579 | Do you think it would amuse you, or do you think it would bother you?" |
49579 | Does your foot hurt you very much this morning?" |
49579 | Healthy and well grown?" |
49579 | Higgins?" |
49579 | How big was it? |
49579 | How can I teach him to use it well? |
49579 | How do you feel?" |
49579 | How early in the morning might he get up and see it? |
49579 | How old was it? |
49579 | I do n''t care about the mother; what sort of a lad is he? |
49579 | I do n''t think any people could be better friends than we are, do you?" |
49579 | I say, what''s the matter?" |
49579 | Is Mrs. Higgins well now?" |
49579 | Is it something like cricket?" |
49579 | Is n''t he good?" |
49579 | Is n''t that fine, Ceddie? |
49579 | Is that exactly the right way to spell''interfered''?" |
49579 | Shall I order it to be brought round?" |
49579 | That is just the way you are, is n''t it?" |
49579 | That was right, was n''t it?" |
49579 | The woman is an ignorant, vulgar person, you say?" |
49579 | Then, after a second''s pause, in which his face brightened visibly,"_ You_ can do anything, ca n''t you?" |
49579 | This is a hot day-- isn''t it?" |
49579 | What colour was it? |
49579 | What did it like to eat best? |
49579 | What did you buy with it? |
49579 | What else does an earl do besides being created?" |
49579 | What else?" |
49579 | What else?" |
49579 | What has your news to do with Lord Fauntleroy?" |
49579 | What kind of a lad is he? |
49579 | What was its name? |
49579 | What was the extraordinary event, if I may ask?" |
49579 | What''s the news?" |
49579 | Where''s the mistress?" |
49579 | Where''s your hat?" |
49579 | Who gave them to me?" |
49579 | Who is in trouble now?" |
49579 | Who was Michael?" |
49579 | Whose lie is this?" |
49579 | Why do they belong to me? |
49579 | Why should not that indulgence be used for the good of others? |
49579 | Would you like me to go and get my game and show it to you? |
49579 | You do n''t mean the mother has n''t told him?" |
49579 | You give me_ everything_, do n''t you?" |
49579 | _ Been... he_= Has he been neglecting it? |
49579 | _ Straight- limbed_, hat er seine geraden Glieder? |
49579 | _ Want a shine?_ Stiefel wichsen? |
49579 | _ Want a shine?_ Stiefel wichsen? |
49579 | _ Want_= do you want? |
49579 | he asked;"and ca n''t I go faster?" |
49579 | he cried,"could you believe it? |
49579 | he exclaimed,"d''ye know him yerself?" |
49579 | he exclaimed,"d''ye know him yerself?" |
49579 | he exlaimed,"d''ye know him yerself?" |
49579 | he said, at length,"from the gate to the front door?" |
49579 | he said,"I have been kind to you, have I?" |
49579 | he said;"you want to make a builder of model cottages of me, do you?" |
49579 | said the Earl in his deep voice,"that was one of the things you did for yourself, was it? |
49579 | said the Earl,"you like them, do you?" |
49579 | she said;"will he have to be taken away from me? |
10540 | ''Art thou married, lady?'' 10540 ''Parlor car seat, Miss?'' |
10540 | ''Wilt delay the nuptials until I am eighteen and the castle is set in order?'' 10540 Ai n''t they the greatest?" |
10540 | All your time? |
10540 | And people paint fruit, and dead fish on platters, and pitchers of lemonade with ice in,--why do n''t you try things like those? |
10540 | And what became of the money you put in Uncle Allan''s business? |
10540 | And will my Peter- bird be good and make Nancy no trouble? |
10540 | Any of my time? |
10540 | Are n''t your legs in good working order? |
10540 | Are the rest of you at home? 10540 Are you afraid your mother''ll be too small, sweet Pete?" |
10540 | Are you coming to the family council, sweet Pete? |
10540 | Are you''most ready to come home, Muddy? |
10540 | Are you''my son Tom''? |
10540 | Are_ you_ a good bird? |
10540 | At about what hour? |
10540 | Be careful with it, wo n''t you? |
10540 | But if you do n''t share my way of thinking, why do you keep fretting yourself to come and see us? 10540 But they''re too faded out to leave''s they be, ai n''t they, Mis''Carey? |
10540 | But what did mother do? |
10540 | But, Muddy dear, you were n''t in earnest? |
10540 | Ca n''t you_ see_ him, mother? 10540 Can I walk back, Colonel?" |
10540 | Can a naughty bird show a good bird the way home, Addy? |
10540 | Come and help me, Muddy? |
10540 | Did n''t you write the date in Lallie Joy''s book? |
10540 | Did she tell the truth, Aunt Margaret? |
10540 | Did the Admiral tell your son Tom I called him the Yellow Peril? 10540 Do I act as if I did?" |
10540 | Do I remember? 10540 Do n''t they keep anything but magenta?" |
10540 | Do n''t you believe in a college education, mother? |
10540 | Do n''t you like to look at pretty things? |
10540 | Do n''t you love the rooms your father has finished here? |
10540 | Do you care partic''larly where you set, nights, Ossian? |
10540 | Do you hear the frogs? |
10540 | Do you know who could make the walls look as they used to? 10540 Do you like magenta against your hair?" |
10540 | Do you love me next to mother? |
10540 | Do you mean that you are going to have Julia come and live with us,--be one of the family? |
10540 | Do you suppose it ever''rambled,''Muddy? 10540 Doctor of what?" |
10540 | Does n''t the House of Carey need another prop? |
10540 | Done? 10540 Have I not felt it from the beginning?" |
10540 | Have you seen anybody in the cities that could play any faster''n she can? 10540 Hide the body in the corner, Gilly,"said Nancy;"and say, Gilly--""Yes, what?" |
10540 | How about Julia? 10540 How could I grudge you anything when you give us so much,--so much more than we ought to accept, so much more than we can ever thank you for?" |
10540 | How did you chance to bring the butter to- day instead of to- morrow, Lallie Joy? |
10540 | How did you come by your name, Lallie Joy? |
10540 | How did you know it was my birthday? |
10540 | How do you like''em? |
10540 | How does she do that? |
10540 | How much a year does it make, Nancy? |
10540 | How much? |
10540 | How should I know? |
10540 | However, you will agree, modest parent as you are, that your Olive is a genius? |
10540 | I am_ my_ Mr. Hamilton''s son Tom; or shall we say_ our_ Mr. Hamilton''s? 10540 I can read''Up- up- my- boy- day- is- not- the- time- for- sleep- the- dew- will- soon- be- gone''with the book upside down,--can''t I, Muddy?" |
10540 | I mean my Mr. Hamilton''s son Tom? |
10540 | I suppose you think I''m crazy? |
10540 | I suppose you wo n''t come to Buffalo? |
10540 | I, on the wrong train? |
10540 | I? 10540 If there is any real trouble remember to telegraph your Uncle Allan-- did you write down his address, 11 Broad Street, New York? |
10540 | If we show you the painted chamber will you promise not to be too unhappy? |
10540 | Is he going back to China after his visit? |
10540 | Is n''t Mr. Bossy lovely? |
10540 | Is n''t mother the most interesting''scolder''you ever listened to? 10540 Is she fashionable?" |
10540 | Is the illumination for Thanksgiving, I wonder? 10540 Is the mother dead?" |
10540 | Is the news good enough to warrant opening a jar or a can of anything? |
10540 | Is the pain gone? |
10540 | It''s The Tempest; do you know it? |
10540 | It''s a little early for you to be talking about rich noblemen, is n''t it? |
10540 | It''s partly your fault, is n''t it? |
10540 | Land o''Goshen, you''re_ loaded_, hain''t you? |
10540 | Like it? |
10540 | May I read Cousin Ann''s aloud? |
10540 | May I send my bag to the Mansion House and stay a while with you? |
10540 | May we throw this away? |
10540 | Might I inquire what you think of that? |
10540 | Mis''Carey, will you play for me? 10540 Not any more than that?" |
10540 | Oh, Muddy,_ is_ it our duty to write to Mr. Hamilton and tell him about them? 10540 On the wrong train?" |
10540 | Prithee, poppet, what hast dropped into the dish to- day? |
10540 | Quit talkin'', Pop, will yer? |
10540 | Really? 10540 Shall I go to South America, or shall I not?" |
10540 | The only question before the council is, does logic belong at the top, in the scale of reasons why we do certain things? 10540 Then it goes on thus,"laughed Nancy:--"''And who are they? |
10540 | Then may I go? |
10540 | Was it ever so green before? |
10540 | Was it my fault, mother? |
10540 | Was that the Bible, Osh? |
10540 | We have n''t heard lately,said Mrs. Carey;"but he should return within a month or two, should he not, Nancy? |
10540 | We''ll never speak of''last times,''Gilly, or where would any of us be? 10540 We''ve got to leave this place, and where could we live on less than in that tiny village? |
10540 | Well, how would this do? |
10540 | Well, it''s been a long time sence we heard anybody say that, eh, Colonel? 10540 Well, you should n''t; have n''t you any other?" |
10540 | Were the trees ever so lace- y? 10540 What are mothers for, but to do just that, and more than all, for the motherless boys?" |
10540 | What colored trimming did you get? |
10540 | What do you know about this great cause, Nancy dear, at your age? |
10540 | What do you mean? |
10540 | What do you scrub your face with, that makes those shiny knobs stick right out on your forehead and cheek bones? |
10540 | What do you want? |
10540 | What does it matter about us when mother has the long journey and father is so ill? |
10540 | What has he done to make him so unpopular? |
10540 | What has mother been doing, now? |
10540 | What is the dinner, Kitty? |
10540 | What is the matter, child? |
10540 | What is the precious thing, anyway? |
10540 | What would be your advice, Colonel? |
10540 | What would the yellow house be without Peter? |
10540 | What''ll we do with all the milk? |
10540 | What''s the matter with Lowell? 10540 When did it get to be different, I wonder? |
10540 | Where did you come from? 10540 Where does it go, then?" |
10540 | Where will this go? |
10540 | Who do you think sent it,--all the way from China? |
10540 | Why did n''t you tell me? 10540 Why did n''t you try blue for a change?" |
10540 | Why do n''t people make inquiries? |
10540 | Why do n''t you buy some with the money you earn here? |
10540 | Why do n''t you do flowers and houses, Olive? |
10540 | Why do n''t you get Mr. Popham to sharpen it? 10540 Why do you strain it back so tight?" |
10540 | Why does she have to be accounted for? |
10540 | Why not now? 10540 Why not, when you consider her specialty?" |
10540 | Why should n''t they be, considering you? |
10540 | Why, pray? |
10540 | Will Peter go too? |
10540 | Will it take both of you? |
10540 | Will you ask Mr. Lord if he will see me for a moment? |
10540 | Will you come inside, Mis''Carey? |
10540 | Will you kindly tell Miss Olive and Master Cyril Lord that their father has called for them? |
10540 | Will you please head that up before you begin work? |
10540 | Wo n''t you give me a rose? |
10540 | Would n''t he put any professional beauty out of countenance? 10540 Would you want it for more''n this summer?" |
10540 | Wrong train? 10540 Yes, and we are still eating the grand piano at the end of two months, but it''s about gone, is n''t it, Muddy?" |
10540 | You do n''t? |
10540 | You never did notice a birthday; why should you begin now? |
10540 | You see he''s in two pieces? |
10540 | You slave enough for us, as it is, but you shall never slave for anybody else; shall she, Gilly? |
10540 | You will all be in Washington then,she said,"and your son Tom with you, of course?" |
10540 | _ Do you like Julia Carey_? |
10540 | _ What do you say to making him four, or more_? |
10540 | _ What_ specialty? |
10540 | ''Have n''t you any sense of propriety?'' |
10540 | ''How many? |
10540 | ''Wilt go to the yellow castle with me, sweet lady?'' |
10540 | ( Responsibility and care also, but what is the use of discouraging circles when there are not enough of them anyway?) |
10540 | --There is surely something strange in that, do n''t you think so? |
10540 | Ai n''t this the 3.05?" |
10540 | Alone, Cousin Ann?" |
10540 | Also, what rational family could mourn the loss of an irregularly shaped instrument standing on three legs and played on one corner? |
10540 | Am I everything? |
10540 | Am I nothing? |
10540 | And Jo you ever ketch her landin''on a black note when she started for a white one? |
10540 | And do n''t you think you could make a''new beast''out of Mr. Henry Lord, or is he too old a beast even for Mother Carey?" |
10540 | And is n''t the boatful of people coming to the haymaking, nice, with the bright shirts of the men and the women''s scarlet aprons? |
10540 | And what Hamilton could be persuaded to live in the yellow house? |
10540 | And who will know about the planting,--for we are only''women folks''; and who will do all the hammering and carpenter work? |
10540 | Are we foolish? |
10540 | Are you engaged to be married to a little- footed China doll, or anything like that?" |
10540 | Ca n''t I paste those on while you talk to us?" |
10540 | Ca n''t my boys be anything that their brains and courage fit them for, whether they make their own associations or have them made for them? |
10540 | Ca n''t my girls be fine women, fit for New York or Washington, London or Paris, because their young days were passed in Beulah? |
10540 | Ca n''t you feel the wind blowing my hair and dress? |
10540 | Close the barn door carefully behind you!--Am I understood?" |
10540 | Could any of us write a chronicle of any house we ever lived in, and leave you out?" |
10540 | Could anybody give up this painted chamber if it belonged to him?" |
10540 | Could n''t you_ help_ it, mother?" |
10540 | Did we_ have_ to have him for a father? |
10540 | Did you drop anything? |
10540 | Did you notice how Julia_ withered_ when mother said we were not to look upon Beulah as a place of hiding?" |
10540 | Do n''t you love the white horse in the haycart, and the jolly party picnicking under the tree? |
10540 | Do n''t you see that the calf is chewing his cud and is going to move in just a minute? |
10540 | Do two''mys''make one''our''?" |
10540 | Do you know, dear little Miss Nancy, what brought the tears to my eyes in your letter? |
10540 | Do you like it, Muddy dear?" |
10540 | Do you remember once, years and years ago, before Peter it was, that father took us on a driving trip through some dear little villages in Maine?" |
10540 | Do you remember where Kingsley''s redoubtable Tom the Water Baby swims past Shiny Wall, and reaches at last Peacepool? |
10540 | Does this lot o''stuff have to be shifted''tween here and Greentown?" |
10540 | Had the Paragon, the Pink of Propriety and Perfection, confessed a fault? |
10540 | Had the creature never seen Olive sketching, nor noted her choice of subjects? |
10540 | Had the heart of the smug one, the prig, melted, and did she feel at last her kinship to the Carey chickens? |
10540 | Had the heavens fallen? |
10540 | Has it any roses on it? |
10540 | Have you ever lifted a stone and seen the pale, yellow, stunted shoots of grass under it? |
10540 | Have you got all the props you need?" |
10540 | He handed his ticket to the conductor with a broad smile, saying in an undertone,"What kind of passengers are we carrying this afternoon?" |
10540 | How are Gilbert and Kathleen and Julia and Peter? |
10540 | How do the people manage that ca n''t love like that, or have n''t anybody to love?" |
10540 | How else, if they had not learned themselves, could Mother Carey''s chickens go out over the seas and show good birds the way home? |
10540 | How is it with you? |
10540 | How long was yours to him?" |
10540 | How, especially, is Mother Carey?" |
10540 | How_ can_ you?" |
10540 | I allers say, when folks grumble,''Now if you was given the materials, could you turn out a better world than this is? |
10540 | I feel that I know you all, from the dear mother who sits in the centre--"What does he mean by that?" |
10540 | I well know that your income will not support your own children; what therefore shall we do with Julia? |
10540 | I wonder how we could find out about it? |
10540 | I''ve heerd o''paintin''the town,--I guess you''re paperin''it, ai n''t you?" |
10540 | If you had met your mother would n''t you have wanted to marry her?" |
10540 | In the midst of the mystery the solemn young creature is sighing to herself,"What am I meant for? |
10540 | Instead of going herself to spy out the land of Beulah, why not send Gilbert? |
10540 | Is it you who keeps the village store?" |
10540 | Is n''t it all as wonderful as a fairy story?" |
10540 | Is n''t it rather like the process in mathematics where we reduce fractions to a common denominator? |
10540 | Is n''t it the White Mountain train?" |
10540 | Julia, will you show Mr. Hamilton the barn a little later, while Nancy and I get supper? |
10540 | Lady Nancibel trips up the steps after them and, turning, says graciously to her Knight,''Would you just as soon marry somebody else? |
10540 | Let''s us do it; shall we?" |
10540 | May I ask if you are, or have been, a teacher?" |
10540 | May I smoke my cigar under the famous crimson rambler?" |
10540 | Mebbe you marked''em someway so''t you know which to unpack first? |
10540 | Mr. Harmon says she''s too homely to live; now what do you think?" |
10540 | Must I wait till my future comes to me, or must I seek it?" |
10540 | Must we love her, mother, or can we just be good and polite to her, giving her the breast and taking the drumstick? |
10540 | Now do you think you''ve got grit enough-- all three of you-- to bear up for your mother''s sake, when she first comes in? |
10540 | Now will you go into your mother''s room and find your way downstairs by yourself? |
10540 | Oh, Julia, could you shake hands with me, just to show me you know how I despise myself?" |
10540 | Oh, my littlest Peter- bird, how can mother leave you?" |
10540 | Peacepool, where the good whales lie, waiting till Mother Carey shall send for them"to make them out of old beasts into new"? |
10540 | Perhaps he had better, on the whole, keep one lamp burning in the lower part after this, to show that the place was inhabited? |
10540 | Peter? |
10540 | Popham?" |
10540 | Popham?" |
10540 | Prithee, is the other lady bespoke, she of the golden hair?'' |
10540 | Shall I sign any papers?" |
10540 | Shall I tell you what more the Careys may do for me, they who have done so much already? |
10540 | She had washed the dishes that night, would wash them again in the morning, but what of that? |
10540 | So on this occasion did Mrs. Carey repeat, as she set Peter down,"Do n''t we belong to Beulah, dear?" |
10540 | Still the dream went on in bewildering circles, and Nancy kept hearing mysterious phrases spoken with a new meaning,--"Will you dance with me?" |
10540 | THE BROKEN CIRCLE V. HOW ABOUT JULIA? |
10540 | The bills are all paid; what''s the matter?" |
10540 | The chorus of"Where shall we put this, Muddy?" |
10540 | The river is our river; the village is our village; the people are our neighbors; Beulah belongs to us and we belong to Beulah, do n''t we, Peter?" |
10540 | The stranger lifted the foreign- looking hat with a smile and said,"My little friend and correspondent, Nancy Carey, I think?" |
10540 | Then the river on clear days, the glimpse of the sea from Beulah''s hill tops, the walks in the pine woods,--could Paradise show anything to compare? |
10540 | Two for the Navy, eh?" |
10540 | V HOW ABOUT JULIA? |
10540 | Was any river ever so clear, or any moon so yellow? |
10540 | Was she not seventeen? |
10540 | Was the hearth fire kindled in the Yellow House sending its glow through the village as well as warming those who sat beside it? |
10540 | We little thought we should find such friends here, did we?" |
10540 | Well, what''s the verse?" |
10540 | What are they requesting you to do,--fly?" |
10540 | What are you doin''out there anyway? |
10540 | What do you say, Peter?" |
10540 | What do you say?" |
10540 | What do you think I am made of that I could ever forget?" |
10540 | What do you think, Julia?" |
10540 | What for?" |
10540 | What for?" |
10540 | What if I should die and leave you?" |
10540 | What if the world was to be a work- a- day world? |
10540 | What mattered it that the years just ahead( for aught she knew to the contrary) were full of self- denial and economy? |
10540 | What shall we do?" |
10540 | What was its quaint little name,--Mizpah or Shiloh or Deborah or something like that?" |
10540 | What would the Pathfinder have done if she had gone, instead of her brother?" |
10540 | What wouldst thou suggest?" |
10540 | What_ do_ you suppose would wake her up? |
10540 | When do you expect the Admiral back? |
10540 | Where is the celebrated crimson rambler, please?" |
10540 | Where is there a sweeter Peter, a fleeter Peter, a neater Peter, than ours, I should like to know, and where a better adviser for the council?" |
10540 | Where was the timid eye, the"hangdog look,"the shrinking manner, he so disliked in his son? |
10540 | Who can say how rich we shall be next summer? |
10540 | Who was the young stranger? |
10540 | Why did n''t the Fergusons adopt her before mother had made her over?" |
10540 | Why did n''t you tell us beforehand? |
10540 | Why do you tie the braids with strings?" |
10540 | Why else should we have made sacrifices to send you? |
10540 | Will you dance the next dance with me, please?" |
10540 | Would the words never stop ringing in his ears? |
10540 | Would you like an old student lamp? |
10540 | You do n''t grudge me bed and board, I suppose?" |
10540 | You remember that Dr. Holmes says of certain majestic and dignified trees that they ought to have a Christian name, like other folks? |
10540 | You''ll have to cover''em up with new paper, wo n''t you, or shall you let me put a coat of varnish on''em?" |
10540 | asked Mrs. Carey, looking away from the letter again,"did you say anything about your Cousin Ann?" |
10540 | did you have to borrow money?" |
10540 | she asked hospitably,"or do you want Lallie Joy to set you a chair on the grass, same as you had last time?" |
10540 | the aged one asks courteously,''and if not, wilt thou be mine?''" |
10540 | what are you whispering about?" |
10540 | when you see Olive nowadays, smiling and busy and happy, are n''t you glad you stretched your wings and took her under them with the rest of us? |
9507 | ''Edward''s view''? |
9507 | ''Hunted?'' 9507 ''If my son takes to him a wife of the daughters of Heth, what good shall my life be unto me?''" |
9507 | A reply, of course, to the Martover meeting? |
9507 | About the Glenwilliam affair? 9507 Act? |
9507 | After all, do I really care what he thinks? |
9507 | Am I disturbing you? 9507 And as to pleasing your mother, I know somebody who has only to put out her hand--""To please mother-- and somebody else?" |
9507 | And ca n''t stick it? |
9507 | And pray why should Liberal women be ascetics any more than any other kind of women? |
9507 | And the actual words of our Blessed Lord, Betts, matter nothing to you? |
9507 | And then-- Marcia? 9507 And what the deuce is going to happen?" |
9507 | And where shall I come in? |
9507 | And why? |
9507 | Another letter, father? |
9507 | Are n''t women in this world to help each other? 9507 Are n''t you-- aren''t you sorry for those two people?--and do n''t you understand that I-- I hoped I might have helped them?" |
9507 | Are n''t you? 9507 Are you afraid of the grass? |
9507 | Are you any nearer caring for him-- really-- than you were six weeks ago? |
9507 | Are you coming to see me on Sunday? |
9507 | Are you going to be at the Frenshams''dance? |
9507 | Are you going to say anything about Lord Coryston''s letter, William? |
9507 | Are you really in love with this man, Marcia? |
9507 | Are you speaking of Coryston? |
9507 | Arthur, my boy, what''s up now? |
9507 | Arthur? |
9507 | Because of your mother? |
9507 | Because you have so much of it? |
9507 | Because-- Lady Coryston-- I am my father''s daughter? |
9507 | Because-- you think-- divorce is wrong? |
9507 | But it_ was_ Arthur Coryston, was n''t it, who sent you that extra order for to- day, Enid? |
9507 | But of course, Waggin, they were n''t alone? |
9507 | But there are exceptions in the New Testament? |
9507 | But they''ve told you-- he and Arthur-- they''ve told you what''s happened? |
9507 | But what Church? 9507 But where is James?" |
9507 | But wo n''t you put on these roses, miss? |
9507 | But you think other things matter more than politics? |
9507 | By telling him whom we were expecting? 9507 By the way, what are mother and Marcia after, this Sunday? |
9507 | Ca n''t I behave myself? |
9507 | Ca n''t she discriminate between the politician and the private friend? |
9507 | Ca n''t we get him to go away? |
9507 | Can what? |
9507 | Can you come and see me? 9507 Could n''t he go and stir up people somewhere else? |
9507 | Could n''t they? 9507 Could n''t you take to desiring something else, mother, than my''good''as you call it? |
9507 | Darling!--is there anything wrong-- anything that troubles you? |
9507 | Darling!--you did n''t mind? |
9507 | Dear me!--is it really chapel- time? 9507 Did I choose my post in life for myself?--its duties, its responsibilities? |
9507 | Did Lord Coryston tell you to say that? |
9507 | Did you know that Mr. and Mrs. Betts are trying to get at Marcia? |
9507 | Did you see Enid Glenwilliam, mother, in Palace Yard? |
9507 | Did you see my husband as you came? |
9507 | Did you--the girl fidgeted--"did you tell him about Coryston?" |
9507 | Did you? |
9507 | Do I look like joking? |
9507 | Do n''t I know it? |
9507 | Do n''t take the chair for Glenwilliam? |
9507 | Do n''t you dine at half past eight? 9507 Do they put you up there? |
9507 | Do you mean-- let them stay on at the Farm? |
9507 | Do you suspect anything? |
9507 | Do you think I ca n''t keep my temper-- when it''s_ your_ brother? 9507 Do you think I''ve forgotten you for one moment, while I''ve been away?" |
9507 | Do you think he will do what he threatens? |
9507 | Do you think,he said, with deliberate gentleness,"that I feel nothing-- that life can ever be the same for me again-- after this? |
9507 | Do your father and mother really approve? |
9507 | Do? 9507 Edward Newbury''s kind of church?" |
9507 | Edward!--ought you-- to take things for granted about me-- like this? |
9507 | Eh!--what? |
9507 | Especially-- for women? |
9507 | Even between mothers and sons? |
9507 | Even if he''s rude and violent? |
9507 | For what they have done? 9507 Has James been talking to him?" |
9507 | Has Lady Coryston found out yet? |
9507 | Has he just come in? |
9507 | Has he told you? |
9507 | Has she? 9507 Have n''t other people as good a right to live their beliefs as you?" |
9507 | Have n''t you heard of me? |
9507 | Have they drawn it? 9507 Have you at all made up your mind, Enid, what you are going to say?" |
9507 | He can be such a buffoon, ca n''t he? |
9507 | He defended himself? |
9507 | Heard? |
9507 | Heavens, what do I care? 9507 Hm-- does he?" |
9507 | How can I make you happy? |
9507 | How can I, till I know what_ she''s_ going to say? |
9507 | How could she help it? 9507 How could we?" |
9507 | How do you do, Lady Coryston? |
9507 | How do you get on with her ladyship? |
9507 | How do you know? 9507 How do you know? |
9507 | How long have you been concocting this, mother? 9507 How much do you know of this Betts business?" |
9507 | How much mischief will you get into to- day? |
9507 | How? 9507 How?" |
9507 | I hear mother and Marcia are away? |
9507 | I say, Marcia-- it''s true-- isn''t it? 9507 I say, who''s taking my name in vain?" |
9507 | I suppose Corry has been attacking my mother? |
9507 | I suppose my brothers have been here? |
9507 | I suppose she''s pressed you into the service-- makes you help Arthur? |
9507 | I thought you were out for justice-- and freedom of conscience? |
9507 | I''m to make it appear a bargain-- between you and me? 9507 If they separate, you mean?" |
9507 | If you make a solitude and call it religion, what can you expect? |
9507 | If you''re so critical of my clothes, why do n''t you come and look after them and me? |
9507 | Is Miss Glenwilliam here? |
9507 | Is Mr. Arthur here? |
9507 | Is it fair to keep us on tenter- hooks? 9507 Is it so plain that no Conservative mother could endure me? |
9507 | Is that what her note says? 9507 Is the Christian conscience-- alone-- excepted? |
9507 | Is there such a thing as_ matria potestas_? 9507 Laying a stone?" |
9507 | Let me finish? |
9507 | Let''s ask ourselves once more, Herbert-- is it really a wise thing to do? |
9507 | Life wo n''t spare her its facts-- why should we? 9507 Look here, Arthur!--can''t you make a last effort, and get free?" |
9507 | Look here, Marcia, do you think-- do you honestly think-- that I''m the aggressor in this family row? |
9507 | Look here, old boy? 9507 Marcia Coryston? |
9507 | Marcia-- is it really true? 9507 Marcia?" |
9507 | Marcia? |
9507 | Marion, when did you say that you expected Enid? |
9507 | May I come with you, mother? |
9507 | May n''t I? |
9507 | May n''t women care for politics just as strongly as men? |
9507 | Miss Glenwilliam, I believe? |
9507 | Miss Glenwilliam,began Lady Coryston,"you must no doubt have thought it a strange step that I should ask you for this conversation?" |
9507 | Mother!--why do n''t you rest a little? |
9507 | Mr. Betts''s farm? |
9507 | My dear, what''s Edward got to do with it? 9507 Nobody else about? |
9507 | Not bad? |
9507 | Of course-- he was furious? |
9507 | Oh dear, oh dear, what am I to do? |
9507 | Oh, Marcia, am I worthy-- shall I make you happy? |
9507 | Oh, she came, did she? 9507 Oh,_ have_ you heard--?" |
9507 | Ought we to set up these standards for other people? 9507 Perhaps I ought n''t to risk his chances?" |
9507 | Rather hard on your sister, is n''t it? |
9507 | Rather unusual, this, is n''t it? |
9507 | Say anything to his mother? 9507 So far? |
9507 | Something I had ordered? |
9507 | Suppose she was very unhappy with her first husband? |
9507 | Suppose you come to see the seamy side of me-- as you do of everybody? |
9507 | Suppose you get bored with me-- as you have with the Liberal party? |
9507 | Sure of her? 9507 That Coryston is my son?--and has always been regarded as my heir? |
9507 | That we get on? 9507 The boy?" |
9507 | The view of Lord Coryston and yourself? |
9507 | Then James will have them? |
9507 | Then it is still your ultimatum-- that we must separate? |
9507 | Then you have heard? 9507 Then you have refused him?" |
9507 | Then you wo n''t try to persuade your father-- even for my sake, Edward? |
9507 | Then you_ will_ let him stay? |
9507 | Then-- if Arthur married me-- he would be a pauper? |
9507 | There would be no reconciling her to the notion of such a marriage? |
9507 | They did n''t ask anybody to marry them in church, did they? |
9507 | They''re not engaged? |
9507 | They_ are_ married? |
9507 | Was that kind? |
9507 | Well, Enid, how did you get through? 9507 Well, James, are n''t you going to congratulate me?--And why do n''t you do it yourself?" |
9507 | Well, how are you feeling? |
9507 | Well, not bad, was it? 9507 Well, what about him?" |
9507 | Well, what did you think of it, Lester? |
9507 | Well? |
9507 | What about? |
9507 | What are we supposed to do? |
9507 | What are your chances? |
9507 | What did Miss Glenwilliam say to you? |
9507 | What do you mean? |
9507 | What do you mean? |
9507 | What do you think of it? |
9507 | What do_ you_ think? 9507 What does all this mean?" |
9507 | What does it mean for_ me_? 9507 What does that prove? |
9507 | What else could he expect? 9507 What else could it have been? |
9507 | What else should I call it? 9507 What good does it do to anybody?" |
9507 | What had Lord Coryston to do with it? |
9507 | What have you been doing? |
9507 | What have you_ really_ been doing? |
9507 | What is Benediction? |
9507 | What is Lady Coryston doing? |
9507 | What is it, Marcia? |
9507 | What is the matter? |
9507 | What is the matter? |
9507 | What on earth can I do? |
9507 | What on earth do you mean by that? |
9507 | What right has he to be furious? |
9507 | What!--Marcia!--have you seen Arthur? |
9507 | What''s that? |
9507 | What''s the good of being distressed? 9507 What''s the good of it? |
9507 | What''s the matter, Patterson? |
9507 | What''s wrong with Arthur? |
9507 | What''s wrong with Marcia? 9507 What-- get up a subscription for Mr. and Mrs. Betts, and settle them somewhere here? |
9507 | What-- to give up the other meeting? 9507 What?" |
9507 | When can I see Coryston? |
9507 | Where is Arthur? 9507 Where is Edward?" |
9507 | Where''s my hat? |
9507 | Where-- when? |
9507 | Who are the parties? |
9507 | Who are you? |
9507 | Who else should I be thinking of!--after all you told me last week? |
9507 | Who is that lady in the corner-- do you mind telling me? |
9507 | Who is that? |
9507 | Who''s going with you? |
9507 | Who''s tyrannizing now? |
9507 | Who-- Marcia? 9507 Who? |
9507 | Who? 9507 Why did n''t you make him stay?" |
9507 | Why did you give up what you had? |
9507 | Why do n''t you apply to Coryston? |
9507 | Why do n''t you see what Miss Coryston can do? |
9507 | Why not Marcia? 9507 Why should I? |
9507 | Why should n''t Corry respect his mother''s convictions? 9507 Why should n''t they? |
9507 | Why should women set up a new want-- a new slavery-- that costs money? |
9507 | Why? 9507 Why?" |
9507 | Why? |
9507 | Why? |
9507 | Will she have him? |
9507 | Will that do, father? 9507 Will you tell me why you sent for me? |
9507 | With Arthur Coryston? |
9507 | With her? 9507 Wo n''t you hand him on to me? |
9507 | Wo n''t you sit down? 9507 Would you like to upset them again? |
9507 | Yes? |
9507 | You are afraid of being misunderstood? |
9507 | You darling!--what can I do? |
9507 | You expect to see Edward Newbury? |
9507 | You have heard from the Cloan Sisters? |
9507 | You have not even acknowledged it? |
9507 | You have seen my brother? 9507 You know the farm, Jackson?" |
9507 | You love him? |
9507 | You mean they''re so unmeasured? |
9507 | You read it, I presume? |
9507 | You regard me as a nuisance? 9507 You remember how_ terrified_ I was-- lest mother should know? |
9507 | You remember what I told you of Father Brierly and the Community of the Ascension? 9507 You saw who that young lady was?" |
9507 | You think she has done wrong? |
9507 | You think she will change her mind again? |
9507 | You think so, father? |
9507 | You think the arrangement we now propose-- would still compromise you? |
9507 | You will let me come and see you to- morrow? |
9507 | You''ll see that Miss Glenwilliam treats her decently? |
9507 | You''ll write to Corry-- won''t you? 9507 You''re not staying for the rest of the debate?" |
9507 | You''re thinking of Edward Newbury? |
9507 | Your life? 9507 ''How much can I get out of you?--and you?'' |
9507 | *****"You have n''t tackled Coryston yet?" |
9507 | --he put both elbows on the table, and looked sharply into Marion''s plain and troubled countenance--"don''t you agree with me?" |
9507 | --her tone was a tone of battle--"was it not an outrage on your father''s memory-- that you should even entertain the notion of such a connection? |
9507 | A motor? |
9507 | A wretched actress on the boards, did she yet possess some subtle perception which came into play at this crisis of her own personal life? |
9507 | Ah!--what is n''t she doing?" |
9507 | All the same, why should n''t we talk about her? |
9507 | Aloud she said,"You do n''t think his being such a Radical, so dreadfully extreme and revolutionary, justifies her?" |
9507 | Am I becoming a beast? |
9507 | Am I to give him what he says he hates-- land and money-- to use for what_ I_ hate-- and what his father hated? |
9507 | Am I to shirk it because I am a woman? |
9507 | And as for right, who else had a right, if not I? |
9507 | And as to that nice but rather stupid fellow Arthur, what on earth could he be doing at the Atherstones''? |
9507 | And can toleration in the active- spirited be ever anything more than approximate? |
9507 | And he is just hanging on the arrival of a letter--""From Enid Glenwilliam?" |
9507 | And he''s told you his precious plan?--of coming to settle down at Coryston-- in our very pockets-- in order to make mother''s life a burden to her?" |
9507 | And may I have a cigarette?" |
9507 | And now? |
9507 | And what else are you doing with mamma?" |
9507 | And what have you to wait for? |
9507 | And what on earth have I taken Knatchett for, except to blazon abroad what our dear mother has been doing?" |
9507 | And what''s this they say about a letter?" |
9507 | And when the law says so too, Edward?--Won''t everybody think it_ very_ hard?" |
9507 | And who knows if I sha''n''t after all be able to make my living out of what I like best? |
9507 | And why_ should_ he go? |
9507 | And you''re going to give it to Marcia?" |
9507 | Are n''t you a friend?--her friend?--our friend?--everybody''s friend?" |
9507 | Are n''t you afraid of his cutting up rough?" |
9507 | Are you prepared to take her into your confidence?" |
9507 | Are you really going to see mother this afternoon?" |
9507 | Are you really so lost to all decency-- all affection-- that you can speak to your mother like this?" |
9507 | Are you sure of her? |
9507 | Are you upset?" |
9507 | Arthur, are you open to any sort of advice from an old friend?" |
9507 | At least, if people do n''t ask me to things I''m insulted, and when they do--""You''re bored?" |
9507 | Because of politics? |
9507 | Betts?" |
9507 | Betts?" |
9507 | But dear Marcia, I hope it''s not true-- I hope to God, it''s not true!--that you''ve quarreled with Newbury?" |
9507 | But did it very much matter? |
9507 | But every now and then little Mrs. Frant threw her an odd look, as much as to say,"Am I really taken in?" |
9507 | But meanwhile the"game,"as Coryston was playing it?--what was to be done as to this episode and that? |
9507 | But perhaps you''ve seen her-- to- day?" |
9507 | But the women!--oughtn''t they to be in the shrine-- tending the mystic fire? |
9507 | But what can she have to do with the Bettses themselves? |
9507 | But what on earth''s up, mother?" |
9507 | But what really held her was the question:"Can I move Edward? |
9507 | But what''s up, now? |
9507 | But when indeed had he not been their delight and treasure from his youth up till now? |
9507 | But who made you a judge and divider over them? |
9507 | But why attack us personally-- call us names-- because of what we believe?" |
9507 | But why''a man,''Waggin?" |
9507 | But wo n''t you trust me? |
9507 | But-- is it my birth, or my poverty, that you most dislike?" |
9507 | By the way, I did not know Mr. Arthur was acquainted with those strange people the Atherstones?" |
9507 | By what dramatic instinct did she thus present herself for this interview? |
9507 | Can I do anything for you?" |
9507 | Can I play my part in it?" |
9507 | Can you manage that stile?" |
9507 | Can you order it for me?" |
9507 | Could n''t I lead you to look at things as I do? |
9507 | Could n''t I make you happy? |
9507 | Dearest, you''re going to trust me with your whole life? |
9507 | Did he blame himself? |
9507 | Did he remember how she had implored him to"take care"? |
9507 | Did n''t you know?" |
9507 | Did she trample on you-- did she scratch and spit? |
9507 | Do I love him? |
9507 | Do I want to do the elder generation any damage? |
9507 | Do you dare to say you do n''t know what it means?" |
9507 | Do you really like the young man? |
9507 | Do you see Miss Glenwilliam pursuing love in a garret-- a genteel garret-- on a thousand a year? |
9507 | Do you see any objection?" |
9507 | Do you see where he is? |
9507 | Do you see?" |
9507 | Do you suppose that business is all settled by now?" |
9507 | Do you think I''d do it for any other woman in the world? |
9507 | Do you think a girl of any spirit whatever would put herself in your clutches after that? |
9507 | Do you think he''s good enough for her?" |
9507 | Do you want to shoot your future son- in- law for taking her from you?" |
9507 | Do you wish to speak to her, sir? |
9507 | Does Coryston, either? |
9507 | Does n''t that throw some light on the ideal function of women? |
9507 | Edward?" |
9507 | Even bad people"--her voice broke--"may rejoice in that, may n''t they? |
9507 | Fear of whom?--of Arthur? |
9507 | For in this book, this locked book, may I not call her by her name? |
9507 | For instance:"What is happening, or what has probably already happened, yesterday or to- day, at Hoddon Grey? |
9507 | For what and whom? |
9507 | Freedom for every one else-- but none for us?" |
9507 | Had she, after all, mismanaged her life? |
9507 | Had that infatuation begun even then, which had robbed her of her dearest-- her Benjamin? |
9507 | Had that infinitely pitiful Christ in whom Newbury believed, received the two tormented souls?--were they comforted-- purged-- absolved? |
9507 | Had they simply ceased to be-- to feel-- to suffer? |
9507 | Has he told you what''s happened?" |
9507 | Have I seen that dress before?" |
9507 | Have n''t we eyes to see this ruin that''s coming, and minds to baffle it with? |
9507 | Have n''t you been scolding and advising me for weeks? |
9507 | Have n''t you got a remark to contribute?" |
9507 | Have you been dishing me altogether?--cutting me finally out of the estates? |
9507 | Have you ever let me, in anything-- for one day, one hour-- call my soul my own-- since I went into Parliament? |
9507 | Have you heard what mother wants me to do? |
9507 | Have you seen Arthur?" |
9507 | His mother!--up?--at seven o''clock in the morning? |
9507 | His wife could not help the sudden thought,"But if we had had an infidel or agnostic son?" |
9507 | How can I begin anywhere else? |
9507 | How can he start again? |
9507 | How can they go against all they''ve ever preached? |
9507 | How could he? |
9507 | How could she think of such things, when her mind was full of Arthur? |
9507 | How does the catalogue get on?" |
9507 | How long did James stay?" |
9507 | How long had she known him? |
9507 | How much longer will this rich, leisurely, aristocratic class with all its still surviving power and privileges exist among us? |
9507 | How was she to meet it? |
9507 | I do n''t often miss, do I? |
9507 | I say, Lester, are you a Suffragist?" |
9507 | I suppose my last speeches have contributed?" |
9507 | I suppose you would n''t like it if I were to make a friend of her?" |
9507 | I wager she got as good as she gave? |
9507 | I was engaged-- yesterday-- and have you said one nice, brotherly word to me?" |
9507 | I wonder if she has a right to anything?" |
9507 | ILLUSTRATIONS"HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN CONCOCTING THIS, MOTHER?" |
9507 | If I lose John who will ever give me a kind word-- a kind look again? |
9507 | If I make Corry rich?--and help thereby to throw England to the dogs? |
9507 | If Mrs. Betts withdrew from the scene, from the estate, would not this satisfy everybody? |
9507 | If he were_ very_ rich-- By the way, is he coming this afternoon? |
9507 | If landlordism was the curse of England, why be angry that you were not asked to be a landlord? |
9507 | If not--""Well, if not?" |
9507 | If you love me, would n''t it be right, that-- I should influence you?" |
9507 | In love? |
9507 | Is he really any more tolerant than his mother? |
9507 | Is it in any sense my fault?" |
9507 | Is it serious?" |
9507 | Is n''t God good? |
9507 | Is n''t it a tyranny"--she brought the word out bravely--"when it causes so much suffering!--to insist on more than the law does?" |
9507 | Is n''t life wonderful?" |
9507 | Is that what you mean? |
9507 | Is there a detail of my private or public life that you do n''t meddle with-- as it pleases you? |
9507 | Is there anything I can do for you?" |
9507 | Is your car waiting?" |
9507 | It meant in her--"I am young-- I am handsome-- the world is all on my side-- who shall thwart or deny me?" |
9507 | It vaguely crossed the mother''s mind that her daughter was depressed or annoyed-- perhaps with her? |
9507 | It''s you and I, is n''t it, against the world?" |
9507 | James murmured,"Corry-- old man?" |
9507 | James, did you open your mouth while mother was here? |
9507 | Just because he is my son-- my flesh and blood? |
9507 | Lady Coryston broke out:"I repeat-- you propose to me, Arthur, a bargain which is no bargain!--""A quid without a quo?" |
9507 | Lady Coryston, will you come?" |
9507 | Land!--what does he know about land?--what does a miner-- who wo n''t learn!--know about farming? |
9507 | Lester?" |
9507 | Lester?--Schumann''s''Carnival''? |
9507 | Lord!--what does it matter? |
9507 | Marcia, troubled, intimidated, watched her in silence a few moments and then said:"How can I possibly help you, Mrs. Betts? |
9507 | May I ask-- does that mean that you yourself are still undecided?" |
9507 | Need you have any other relations with them at all? |
9507 | Newbury began:"Will you take a message from me to your sister?" |
9507 | Newbury took his leave immediately afterward, saying to Lady Coryston,"So we expect you-- next Sunday?" |
9507 | No sane man could have written the letter I received last week?" |
9507 | Nobody here, you think, need know anything about you? |
9507 | Now he knows her for what she is-- now that he has"looked into her soul"--must he lose her?--is it all over? |
9507 | Now then-- a fortnight next Wednesday?" |
9507 | Now what is it exactly you want me to do? |
9507 | Oh, Waggin!--you_ did n''t_ see them alone?" |
9507 | Oh, dear Marcia, why do you make me say these things? |
9507 | Oh, father, why, why did he ever come-- to be my death? |
9507 | Or because of the gossip that Arthur is to have the estates? |
9507 | Or did some stern doom await them-- still-- after all the suffering here? |
9507 | Or was it all still plain to him that he had done right? |
9507 | Page?" |
9507 | Shall I have time to show Mr. Coryston the view from the wood- path before tea?" |
9507 | Shall he?" |
9507 | Shall men brave all for women and their fatherland?--and shall one life, one little life, stand in their way? |
9507 | She began abruptly to question Marcia as to whether she had seen Arthur the night before-- or that morning? |
9507 | She broke out impetuously:"You think he''s been badly treated?" |
9507 | She could have lived near them, and Betts could have seen her from time to time--""They refused?" |
9507 | She remembered vaguely that Marcia had come to her that morning in trouble about what? |
9507 | She seemed to be measuring her resources against some hostile force-- to be saying to herself:"Which of us is to yield? |
9507 | She simply lifted her eyes to him, like a miserable child-- saying under her breath:"You know-- I saw them-- the night before last?" |
9507 | She took no notice of Coryston''s,"Well, mother, what''s up? |
9507 | She wants to prove that women ought n''t to shrink from fighting for what they believe, even--""Even with their sons?" |
9507 | She would hardly ever leave the house-- and so long as he does his work-- his scientific work-- need anything else trouble you? |
9507 | Should she go down? |
9507 | Since Christmas only? |
9507 | Sir Wilfrid spoke first:"Are we really, Arthur, to take the statement you have just made seriously?" |
9507 | So now you understand, do n''t you-- what I wanted to ask you?" |
9507 | So this was love?--the supreme of life? |
9507 | Some new development of the Betts trouble? |
9507 | Somebody to be tried and executed?" |
9507 | Surely between them they would make him hear reason, before any suspicion reached their mother? |
9507 | That''s all anybody need know?" |
9507 | That''s what you mean, is n''t it? |
9507 | The Glenwilliams?" |
9507 | The Government? |
9507 | The question is, might n''t she have to put up with me?" |
9507 | Then Sir Wilfrid asked:"When do you go down to Coryston?" |
9507 | Then he said, with evident difficulty:"Dear Marcia-- do you ever think of my father in this?" |
9507 | Then, after a pause,"Do you know that I''m always hearing about you, Miss Atherstone, down in those villages?" |
9507 | They''d suppose you''d separated? |
9507 | Until-- until? |
9507 | Was he going to allow his sister to marry out of her rank-- even though the lover were the best fellow in the world? |
9507 | Was he in any money difficulties? |
9507 | Was her mother ill?--dead? |
9507 | Was it news to him?" |
9507 | Was this rough- mannered, rough- voiced man, Arthur?--the tame house- brother, and docile son of their normal life? |
9507 | We can make room, ca n''t we?" |
9507 | Well now"--Coryston gave a great stretch--"can''t we have a drink? |
9507 | Well now, what were we to do?" |
9507 | Well!--he peered at them-- has she got anything whatever out of young Tartuffe? |
9507 | Well, it was Enid''s way; and after all, who could wonder? |
9507 | Were n''t you here when he was speaking?" |
9507 | Were prophecies to which she had always refused to listen-- she seemed to hear them in her dead husband''s voice!--coming true? |
9507 | What could be the matter? |
9507 | What could he expect? |
9507 | What could he see in her?--what was there in her-- to deserve it? |
9507 | What could she do for her-- how could she help her? |
9507 | What do we_ care_ about the people, our contemporaries, with whom we are always fighting and scuffling in what we are pleased to call_ action_? |
9507 | What do you mean?" |
9507 | What else can you say? |
9507 | What explanation can you possibly give? |
9507 | What fault have I in Paris''s sin? |
9507 | What further scandal could there be? |
9507 | What had become of that early antagonism and revolt which she had expressed to"Waggin"? |
9507 | What if the fire goes out-- if the heart of the nation dies?" |
9507 | What is it? |
9507 | What is that paper, for instance? |
9507 | What is there fresh, dearest? |
9507 | What on earth do they mean by bundling us into chapel like that?" |
9507 | What shall I read?" |
9507 | What sort?" |
9507 | What things? |
9507 | What was happening to them all? |
9507 | What was her mother about to say or do? |
9507 | What was it all about? |
9507 | What were Tory principles worth if they did not some time, at some stage, secure an eldest son, and an orthodox succession? |
9507 | What were they all going to meet for after dinner-- her mother, her three brothers, and herself? |
9507 | What will he say to me?" |
9507 | What will they make of her?" |
9507 | What''s he doing here?" |
9507 | What''s the reason-- the_ justice_ of it?" |
9507 | What''s the sense of it? |
9507 | What''s their religion good for, if it ca n''t do that? |
9507 | What''s up?" |
9507 | What''s wrong with mother?" |
9507 | When had she not fought him? |
9507 | When shall we''resume the conversation,''as you put it?" |
9507 | When will he be at Coryston?" |
9507 | Where are you going to live, and what are you going to do?" |
9507 | Where was he, that she might praise him for his speech? |
9507 | Where would it lead?--how would it work out? |
9507 | Who asked you to be the dispenser for them of blessing and cursing?" |
9507 | Who began it? |
9507 | Who gave you leave?" |
9507 | Who lives there?" |
9507 | Who, she asked, was a tall, fair girl whom she had seen with Mr. Arthur,"a week ago"at the National Gallery? |
9507 | Why ca n''t they leave the rotten things to us? |
9507 | Why did n''t you ask to see my mother?" |
9507 | Why did no letter come for her, no reply? |
9507 | Why do n''t they withdraw-- and let_ us_ take the stage? |
9507 | Why does n''t that girl fly to meet him? |
9507 | Why had she driven matters to this extremity? |
9507 | Why not? |
9507 | Why not? |
9507 | Why on earth should Marcia take this morbid and extravagant interest in the affairs of such people? |
9507 | Why should a girl in her first love- dream be harassed with such a problem-- be brought face to face with such"old, unhappy, far- off things"? |
9507 | Why should he not make himself a_ writer_, like other people? |
9507 | Why should n''t he vote for Arthur? |
9507 | Why should n''t he vote for Arthur? |
9507 | Why should she?" |
9507 | Why, Lady Coryston''s coming--""To trample on her? |
9507 | Why, what''s the matter, my girl? |
9507 | Why? |
9507 | Will she fit herself to this medieval household? |
9507 | Will you allow me to say it?" |
9507 | Will you please do something for my boy? |
9507 | Will you show me that letter? |
9507 | Wo n''t you come and sit down quietly-- and talk the whole matter over? |
9507 | Wo n''t you trust me-- Won''t you believe that neither father nor I would cause these poor things one moment''s pain-- if we could help it?" |
9507 | Wo n''t you?" |
9507 | Would it be too much for you, too tiring?" |
9507 | Would n''t everybody understand-- wouldn''t everybody know you''d done it for pity?" |
9507 | Would n''t you like me to read to you-- or something?" |
9507 | Would n''t you put those first?" |
9507 | Would she come to meet him? |
9507 | Would you give me-- would you give me the greatest joy you could give me, before our marriage? |
9507 | Yet how disobey the Church!--and how ignore the plain words of her Lord--"_He that marrieth her that is put away committeth adultery_''"? |
9507 | Yet was it his mother? |
9507 | You are prepared none the less, apparently, to wreck his happiness and mine, in order--""I do n''t love him? |
9507 | You do n''t expect me to chum with her father?" |
9507 | You do n''t imagine I confine myself to him?" |
9507 | You do n''t regret him?" |
9507 | You have heard of the business with the Baptists?" |
9507 | You have heard, of course, the gossip about the estates?" |
9507 | You know how keen my father is about experimenting with the land? |
9507 | You know that John is to be turned out of his farm unless he will give me up?" |
9507 | You know the great Government farm near Ottawa? |
9507 | You know what they want? |
9507 | You think that ungrateful-- disrespectful? |
9507 | You want it directly?" |
9507 | You''re coming?" |
9507 | You''re engaged to Newbury?" |
9507 | Your mother tells me it''s to be Henry the Seventh''s chapel-- isn''t it? |
9507 | _ Must_ he discuss this melancholy business again with her-- with Marcia? |
9507 | _ Who_ do you say she was?" |
9507 | did n''t you hear something?" |
9507 | she said, wondering--"forbid him to speak out-- speak freely?" |
9507 | what on earth do you mean?" |
9507 | will you come to me-- will you be my wife?" |
9507 | would n''t you like to know? |
