17182 | Do you know your Rathunor? |
17182 | Have I the strength and manly courage to bear the disappointment born from a delusive hope? 17182 How is our new Sarthia?" |

17182 | My beloved Priestess, did you speak to me of the stars, those loving lights in the heavens? 17182 My child,"he said at length,"are you ready for the great change now already at hand?" |
17182 | My darling husband, are you beside me-- are you where I can speak to you, and are we alone? |
17182 | O, most Holy and Revered Father, tell me, am I wrong in not listening to the monitions that are racking my inmost being? 17182 To- morrow night will be the full, and must we indeed lose our Sarthia before another new Moon? |
17182 | What is the result, Venerated Father? |

17182 | Are they speaking to my darling child? |
17182 | Are you yourself again?" |
17182 | But, my child, if all these portents prove true, do you fear death? |
17182 | But, need we think by that, the blind forces of Nature can no more be controlled? |
17182 | Can my request be granted, O Priestess?" |
17182 | Can you hear me further?" |
17182 | Could she leave her Temple home, her opportunities for growth, her idolized Priestess, to go into the environments of Nu- nah? |
17182 | Did he dare for a moment listen to the whispering of the interior self? |
17182 | Did you so deeply love the Princess?" |
17182 | Do I make myself plain to you? |
17182 | Do you hear their silent voices and feel their subtle and powerful influences upon you?" |
17182 | Do you know, O my Rathunor, that our souls sustain that divine relation to each other that makes us immortal, because of being complete? |
17182 | Do you, dear Mother, and can you tell me?" |
17182 | Does he bring tidings from our revered Father? |

17182 | Have all our teachings been in vain? |
17182 | How came I to know the chants and music of the Temple Service?" |
17182 | I have heard it before, but where, O, where? |
17182 | Is it not that there is something to know-- something that our common brains can not grasp and analyze? |
17182 | Is it your desire to become a Vestal of Isis? |
17182 | Is there not that longing, too, within your bosom for something more real, more ennobling than the pastimes of worldly pleasures?" |
17182 | Know you not the divine relation that exists between Sarthia and myself? |
17182 | Know you the young Princess Nu- nah?" |
17182 | May I hope the love that is growing within my soul will be surely recognized and reciprocated by Nu- nah on her return to physical health? |
17182 | May this not be the stars that we see twinkling and motioning to us as we gaze into the midnight heavens?" |
17182 | My Rathunor, are you satisfied? |

17182 | Over and over he asked himself,"Can I wait to see my beloved sister?" |
17182 | Sarthia was bidden to rise, when the Priest, in measured and solemn tones, addressed her:"Do you come to pledge yourself to Temple Service? |
17182 | She turned and gazed upon her companion, mentally asking,"Can I become Nu- nah?" |
17182 | The Astrologer turned to Hermo and said,"Hear you the request of our Priestess here? |
17182 | They disappeared as mysteriously as they came, but where? |
17182 | Think you we have also fulfilled our promise that Rathunor shall love you?" |
17182 | Was it not worse by my decision to rob Nu- nah of her lover than to deprive her of continued physical life?" |
17182 | Was this change volitional? |
17182 | What did she see and hear that revived a faint memory of something in the past? |
17182 | What is the nature of these evil influences?" |
17182 | What magical force was it that drew her so irresistibly toward the Temple? |

636 | --"Well, then,"said John,"as we were sailing over the Line, what do you think we saw?" |
636 | Among the most conspicuous, was one inscribed,"John Bull against John Kemble.--Who''ll win?" |
636 | And after all, what was the grand result? |
636 | As old Drayton sings, in his Poly- olbion:--"Of Merlin and his skill what region doth not hear? |
636 | Broad and smooth was the river on which he embarked; rapid and pleasant was his progress; and who was to stay him in his career? |

636 | Do you forgive me?" |
636 | Every new comer into an alehouse tap- room was asked unceremoniously,"Who are you?" |
636 | He was then asked how many people he had killed with his own hands in the course of his life? |
636 | Henry, forgetting his assumed character of an antiduellist, carelessly, and as a mere matter of course, inquired whether the man lived? |
636 | How could we survive things like that? |
636 | How, after this, could we think to escape? |
636 | Is any man killed by man''s killing? |
636 | Is it not the hand of God that kills, and are we not the mere instruments in the hands of God?" |
636 | One of them was a caricature likeness of Mr. Kemble, asking,"What do you want?" |
636 | Suddenly the owner pounced upon him, and, with fury in his eyes, asked him if he knew what he had been doing? |
636 | The officiating Thug, turning to the spectators, and holding the axe uplifted, asks,"Shall I strike?" |
636 | The performances announced on the bills were the opera of"Love in a Village,"and"Who wins?" |
636 | The praise of his wit was in every mouth, and"Who are you?" |
636 | The title was too apt to the occasion to escape notice, and shouts of"Who wins? |
636 | Then it was of him demanded, whether he should be slaine or be deposed, or should voluntarily give over the crowne? |
636 | To put the wisdom of the young prophet most effectually to the test, the judge asked him if he knew his own father? |
636 | Upon this it was resolved, that both were alike agreeable to God, and that they should be used by turns in all the churches of Seville? |
636 | What traveller is unacquainted with the Santa Scala, or Holy Stairs, at Rome? |
636 | When this phrase had numbered its appointed days, it died away, like its predecessors, and"Who are you?" |
636 | Where shall we find such another set of practical philosophers who, to a man, are above the fear of death? |
636 | Who does not remember the division of England into the two great parties of Roundheads and Cavaliers? |
636 | Who does not remember the outcry against the science of geology, which has hardly yet subsided? |
636 | Who is there here that would betray him for his interest? |
636 | Who is there here that would not die for his friend? |
636 | and after dinner,"Do you know who fought this morning?" |
636 | and are not all our trades assigned us by Providence?" |
636 | and have you not been describing a number of murders in which you were concerned?" |
636 | and were we not ourselves both seized soon after? |
636 | of the wealthy of yesterday become the beggars of to- day? |
636 | replied Campbell,"will you mention before these gentlemen, was not everything fair? |
636 | said her husband;"is the Virgin unwilling to listen to your prayers?" |
636 | said his mother,"and what did the captain say?" |
636 | said the Abbe, smiling,"is that you?" |
636 | who wins?" |
37047 | And I ask you, of what order is that spirit? |
37047 | And here if the objectors return and say, who told you that there are spirits; Is not yours a precarious hypothesis? |
37047 | And is this, without laughing, true? |
37047 | And pray, replied Mr. Barnard, what reason have you beyond a pun to take him for a Jacobite? |
37047 | And shall a manifest experience be so easily exploded? |
37047 | And what sort of a boy is he? |
37047 | As big as you are? |
37047 | But then, say you, why can not those persons be cured by physicians? |
37047 | But what fools periods read for periods''sake? |
37047 | But what sort of a boy is that that meets you? |
37047 | Can we make it a scruple, whether God will permit innocent persons should be so traduced? |
37047 | Did the little boy appoint you? |
37047 | Do good spirits dwell so near us, or are they sent on such messages? |
37047 | Does he write? |
37047 | For how does a demon stir up raptures or ecstacies in men? |
37047 | For how many gipsies and pretenders to chiromancy have we in London and in the country? |
37047 | Hereupon, being much affrighted, he fell into an extreme sweat, so that his wife awaking and finding him all over wet, she asked him what he ailed? |
37047 | How many that are for hydromancy, that pretend in water to show men mighty mysteries? |
37047 | In what English book? |
37047 | Is not this hypothesis as precarious as any man may pretend that of spirits to be? |
37047 | Is not this like what you call hearing? |
37047 | Lying in his bed, pensive, Bocconi appeared to him; my Lord Middleton asked him if he were dead or alive? |
37047 | May not we have leave to recriminate in this place? |
37047 | Must he be so because his name is Perkin? |
37047 | Now the man that had the second- sight was to be tried; it was now to be put to the proof if he could tell names or no? |
37047 | Now what can be more infinitely profane than to use the prayer our Lord instituted in such a way? |
37047 | One of the fathers immediately asked him if he understood Latin? |
37047 | Or what should touch our consciences, being convicted by so many testimonies? |
37047 | Pray, who told Aristotle that there were intelligences that moved the celestial spheres? |
37047 | Shall his obstinacy confute the learned? |
37047 | Shall his want of faith be thought justly to give the lie to so many persons of the highest honour and quality, and of the most undoubted integrity? |
37047 | Shall we place him in the number of the rebels, whom their pride precipitated into the abyss? |
37047 | The reply Cantle made him was this; Does he not love ringing? |
37047 | Then it asked him whether he did not know him? |
37047 | This being thought extraordinary, and Sir Norman hearing one whisper him in the ear, asked who advised him so skilfully? |
37047 | To begin: how are children at first taught a language that can hear? |
37047 | To whom the fathers, being somewhat of an eager spirit, said; What should make us doubtful in this case? |
37047 | Upon this Sir Norman asked him how long it was since he had learned to play? |
37047 | What greater testimony would the most incredulous have? |
37047 | What interest could an earl and many noblemen have in promoting such an imposture? |
37047 | What noisy talker can thy magic boast? |
37047 | Will you imagine that you are in commerce with a spirit? |
37047 | _ My question._ But what was you staring at when I came in? |
37047 | _ My question._ How big is he? |
37047 | _ My question._ How does he do it? |
37047 | _ My question._ I will be sure to keep it secret; but how do you know you are to meet them there to- day? |
37047 | and what are those sounds, but tokens and signs to the ear, importing and signifying such and such a thing? |
37047 | and what sort of a lamb? |
37047 | and yet, retaining love to him, as Dives to his brethren, would have him saved? |
37047 | are they not taught by sounds? |
37047 | have aids from thee; Wilt thou, like witty heathens, lewdly given, To a Gehenna metamorphose Heaven? |
37047 | or is it his guardian angel? |
37047 | or is it the soul of some dead friend that suffers? |
37047 | or of the intelligences, who continued firm in faith and submission to their creator? |
37047 | though they are like other boys and other lambs which you see, they are a thousand times prettier and finer? |
37047 | will you not take time to translate that book which is sent unto you out of Germany? |
43237 | Did not you say that there was somebody down stairs that would be glad to see me? |
43237 | Did you build the pyramids? |
43237 | Do you know how long the first was built before Christ? |
43237 | Do you mean that it was built before the flood? |
43237 | How long have you been there? |
43237 | How will he do for provisions? |
43237 | I demand of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, our once crucified God, whether you are mortal or immortal? |
43237 | Is it not remarkable,says he,"that no record of them appears till_ quite recently_?" |
43237 | Mother,said the child,"will the devil forgive me if I neglect my prayers?" |
43237 | The leech,they say,"can cure those disorders; but who is capable of curing the evil eye?" |
43237 | Well,she replied, with great pertness,"is not Mrs. Mather always glad to see you?" |
43237 | Were there kings of Egypt so soon after the creation? |
43237 | Were you drowned in the Red Sea? |
43237 | Were you king of Egypt when Moses was there? |
43237 | What latitude does he lie in chiefly? |
43237 | What shall we say,says the late Professor Stuart,"of the excessive use that has been made of the passages that speak of his influence and dominion? |
43237 | What was the principal object of them? |
43237 | Where did you dwell till then? |
43237 | Where do you dwell now? |
43237 | Why? |
43237 | Will he be home next summer? |
43237 | Will he find the passage? |
43237 | _ Some._"Were any built before your time? |
43237 | ''Can I do you any good?'' |
43237 | ''Does John Thompson live in Vermont?'' |
43237 | ''Does he live in Massachusetts?'' |
43237 | ''How?'' |
43237 | ''Is John Thompson dead?'' |
43237 | ''The sick man is bewitched: who has bewitched him? |
43237 | ''_ Put it to my mouth._''I asked,''Where is your mouth?'' |
43237 | And I have seen a copy or two of a certain''Journal,''ostensibly advocating the great truths(?) |
43237 | And how are we to account for the Millerites and others being so raised, as they believed? |
43237 | And how can we free ourselves from this thraldom? |
43237 | And how shall the other 30 years be found? |
43237 | And how shall this great object be accomplished? |
43237 | And what now shall be done? |
43237 | And why so? |
43237 | And yet, who were ever more influenced by a belief in signs, omens, spectres, and witches? |
43237 | Are not these cases to be relied upon as much as those related by Mr. Sunderland? |
43237 | Are they not as much to be credited as those who profess a belief in the miracles of the"harmonial philosophers"? |
43237 | But how does the dog obtain this foreknowledge? |
43237 | But what are the facts? |
43237 | But what are the facts? |
43237 | But, pray, what is the"medium,"in these manifestations, but_ a visible human operator_? |
43237 | Can a man be without the law, and yet, touching the law, be blameless? |
43237 | Could not_ four_ respectable ladies tell whether they were_ actually_ carried through the air on a pole or_ not_? |
43237 | Do facts go to show that more disasters occur on this day than on any other? |
43237 | Does God part with the reins of his government, and employ wicked spirits to torment his creatures on this day? |
43237 | Does he make this day more unpropitious to human affairs than others? |
43237 | For a long time, answers could be obtained by any_ two_( why_ two_?) |
43237 | For who were ever better educated than the ancient Greeks and Romans? |
43237 | Have spirits any navels? |
43237 | His death( if he chance to die) has been brought about by evil spirits: who has sent the spirits upon him?'' |
43237 | How can that be? |
43237 | How shall the 75 years be made up to bring the end of the world to 1843? |
43237 | I asked it,''Are you unhappy?'' |
43237 | I have honored my father and mother; I never stole; what need he to steal who has so good an estate? |
43237 | If you say the animal is sent by God, how will you explain the fact that the sign so often fails? |
43237 | Is the Virgin Mary the mother of God? |
43237 | It must be gotten somehow, for who will believe it as it now stands? |
43237 | Now, does this look as though the answer came from spirits? |
43237 | Now, who could prove that the thing alleged was not_ actually_ done? |
43237 | Now, who has ever been up in the moon to ascertain whether it is so or not? |
43237 | Or, in other words, how shall we best lend a helping hand to hasten the downfall of ignorance, error, and sin? |
43237 | Seeing the evils of popular superstitions, what course shall we adopt for their banishment? |
43237 | Shall we not gather from this, that in the spirit world they have their bands of music and companies of artillery, the same as in this world? |
43237 | She then said,"Will you tell the age of Cathy?" |
43237 | Some one in the company asked,''Is John Thompson alive?'' |
43237 | Some will ask the question,"If these things be true, why have we not heard of them before?" |
43237 | The following dialogue then ensued between Mrs. Cooper, her adopted sister, and the young lady:--"''Will you sit close to the table, miss?'' |
43237 | The lamb thy riot dooms to bleed to- day, Had he thy reason, would he skip and play? |
43237 | Then why should we account Friday to be an unlucky day? |
43237 | These sounds were so unusual, that Miss Margaretta Fox, who was present, became alarmed, and said,"What does all this mean?" |
43237 | Treatise after treatise was composed on such subjects as the following: How many angels can stand on the point of a needle? |
43237 | Well, what of that? |
43237 | Were such miracles ever wrought in favor of Millerism? |
43237 | What are his enemy''s fires and incantations to him? |
43237 | What gave that delusion so much success? |
43237 | Whence came such an opinion? |
43237 | Who can say it is not so? |
43237 | Who can wonder that they rise in the morning with wearied limbs, languid and listless, with a furred tongue, parched mouth, and headache? |
43237 | Who sends him on this solemn errand? |
43237 | Why did he not begin the reckoning from the date of the vision itself? |
43237 | Why not as well apply your plaster to a tree as to a pitchfork? |
43237 | Why not as well drink the heart of a lamb as a woman? |
43237 | Why not as well have the touch of a slave as a king? |
43237 | Why should not all mediums be alike? |
43237 | Why was it not then witnessed simultaneously in all parts of the earth? |
43237 | Why? |
43237 | _ Could_ they be deceived? |
43237 | _ Ques._"By whom were you murdered?" |
43237 | _ Ques._"What, then, are you?" |
43237 | _ Ques._"Where does your body lie?" |
43237 | and yet who will_ believe_ that it was? |
34825 | ''Are n''t you pretty near ready for breakfast, Stephen?'' 34825 ''Um- m. How do you know? |
34825 | ... Well, sir, what is it? |
34825 | A spring night in Kentucky-- hot, damp, starlit-- shall I ever forget that terrible night of_ A Tribute to Art_? 34825 About that dictated letter?" |
34825 | Ah, how should I know? 34825 And did you remember Vhruebert in that fairy luncheon together?" |
34825 | And how did you learn of his coming? |
34825 | And is n''t it great the way the papers treated it? 34825 And so you two have been writing letters?" |
34825 | And what''s that big dug- out thing behind? |
34825 | And you really think Pelée may not hold out? |
34825 | And you will not go to the wine- shop, before you see me-- in the morning? |
34825 | And-- you are able to ride? |
34825 | Are you going? |
34825 | Before I got to the gate where the star- stuff passes through? |
34825 | Bob,he called down shakily,"have you got any whiskey?" |
34825 | But have n''t you heard from him? |
34825 | But how can one choose the real, if all are not admitted at first? 34825 But how could you know?" |
34825 | But if I should go far away? |
34825 | But is n''t Melville acknowledged to be the headwaters of inspiration for all later sea- books? |
34825 | But why, oh why, do you always think of me with Bellingham? |
34825 | By the way,Selma Cross retorted,"did you notice that word''love''in either of his recent books-- except as a generality?" |
34825 | Can he not stop that kind of devouring? |
34825 | Can it be that women in general encounter influences-- of this kind? |
34825 | Can you imagine, Paula, that it was an instant of singular glory to me-- that climax?... 34825 Dear Paula, do you think it will really turn out-- that you are to have no relation with Bellingham?" |
34825 | Did any woman ever tell you that you''re rather a mean sort, Quentin Charter? |
34825 | Did ever suicidal genius conceive of corrupting such majesty of force with his pygmy purpose? |
34825 | Did ever the body of a man clog the crater of a live volcano? |
34825 | Did n''t he write? |
34825 | Did you arrange at the post- office to have your mail sent care of the Hotel? |
34825 | Did you get the leviathan alongside and study the bewildering chaos of a ninety- foot nervous system? |
34825 | Did you know I was n''t a Catholic? |
34825 | Do n''t you see, it is the strength you give me!--that girds me to say such things? |
34825 | Do n''t your sentences register? |
34825 | Do you always shape your philosophy to meet the objections of your disciples-- so? |
34825 | Do you happen to know of any reason why an idle ship should not be used for some such purpose? |
34825 | Do you honestly believe that-- that which feels the attraction of earth, and becomes a part of earth after death-- is the stuff of immortality? |
34825 | Do you know that means something-- from a woman like you? 34825 Do you mean that old Villiers paid the night- bird to watch us-- to learn where we went, and possibly what we said?" |
34825 | Do you think hell is worse than this, Ernst, barrin''the effrontery of the question? 34825 Do you think this is big- man stuff?" |
34825 | Early next week, then? |
34825 | Ever been in Pittsburg? |
34825 | Father,Paula said, remembering the words of the washer- woman, as they emerged into the street,"when one is sick of soul-- does one knock here?" |
34825 | Have a little touch, Lafe? |
34825 | Have n''t you discovered that Skylarks are not of the insisting kind-- even when they need new plumage? 34825 Have you the strent'', sir, to do the overhand up the chain?" |
34825 | He had said he loved you? |
34825 | How can he? |
34825 | How far do you go with the_ Panther_? |
34825 | I just wanted to tell you-- Tim will take you back to the city to- night, grateful for the chance, but do you really have to go? 34825 I know no writer by that name-- but how did you know that I did not meet him, Child?" |
34825 | I like the calm, conquering voices of the prophets better.... Immortality of the body?... 34825 I shall go and see what is wanted, Miss Wyndam, and hurry back-- if I may?" |
34825 | I wonder if ever there was a humiliation so artistically complete as mine? |
34825 | I wonder if the long white face with the pain- lit eyes could ever mean to any one else what it does to me? |
34825 | I''ve always wanted to know if you believed-- what an apprentice I really was in love-- give- and- take-- when you came? |
34825 | In other words-- if the mountain wo n''t recede from Miss Wyndam, we''d better snatch up Miss Wyndam and make a getaway from the mountain? |
34825 | Is he well? |
34825 | Is that to the point? |
34825 | Is there really no fact by which his age can be determined? |
34825 | It has been strange to be with you again-- almost like-- those early mornings.... Did you ever hear me calling you--''way off there in the West? 34825 It was always hard for me to call you Wyndam----""Harder to hear, Quentin Charter....""But are you sure you are not badly burned?" |
34825 | It''s altogether too good to be hurt.... Do you realize you''ve never had your hat off in this office? |
34825 | It''s very good of you,he said dully,"but what of my people?" |
34825 | Love me? |
34825 | Magician-- surely? |
34825 | Much that my life has misunderstood is made clear to me-- by this love of yours and his----"''And his,''Father? |
34825 | My dear Paula, you felt the need of me?... 34825 Past all doubt, ca n''t Bellingham turn back?" |
34825 | Pere Rabeaut''s wine- shop in the_ Rue Rivoli_?... 34825 Processes which these poor Islanders could understand?" |
34825 | Some one you know? |
34825 | That was easily believed, Selma----"Then you grant I was n''t acting-- when I gave myself to you? |
34825 | The other reason is not a pretty matter, and doubtless you will call any repugnance of mine an affectation----"Repugnance-- what do you mean? |
34825 | Then the old martyrs and saints who macerated themselves wove great folds of spirit? |
34825 | Then you think it is inevitable that the end of man is-- the clouds? |
34825 | There was a writer here-- a young man very dear to me-- of whom you reminded me at once----"Of whom I reminded you, Father? |
34825 | Vine leaves, indeed,said Paula,"Did M. Mondet tell you he would print this warning?" |
34825 | Was it a man''s way to give me no chance to explain? |
34825 | What are you doing''way up here alone-- in this dreadful suffocation? |
34825 | What are you thinking? |
34825 | What do you make of it, sir? |
34825 | What does the man want? |
34825 | What else would you look for-- here at the very fut av the mountain? |
34825 | What for? |
34825 | What have you been doing with Old Man Pelée, Father? 34825 What is to prevent me from never seeing him? |
34825 | What must it be down in the city-- when we suffer so here? 34825 What relation could I have? |
34825 | What was it, you could not forgive? |
34825 | What? |
34825 | When did you see her last? |
34825 | Where do you live? |
34825 | Who''s Bellingham? |
34825 | Why do you teach only women? |
34825 | Why, what do you mean, Miss Wyndam? |
34825 | Why, yes, Child-- who are you? |
34825 | Will the visitation be repeated? 34825 With all his worldly knowledge, and knowing his own doom, can he not turn back-- far back, a lowly- organized soul, but on the human way?" |
34825 | Wo n''t somebody say something? |
34825 | Wo n''t you tell me about that, too? |
34825 | Would there not be hope-- if he battled with that-- put_ that_ vampirism behind? |
34825 | Yes, I confess I have n''t been so consumed in years----She drew close to him...."It has been dramatic, if not literary, has n''t it?" |
34825 | Yet where can you find such temperamental happiness? |
34825 | You are Miss Linster? |
34825 | You attended the first of my Prismatic Hall lectures ten days ago?... 34825 You do n''t actually believe-- to the contrary?" |
34825 | You do not believe in the wild torrents, the forked lightnings, and the shocking thunders of the poets? |
34825 | You have been impelled to go to him, Paula? |
34825 | You mean because I spoke of another writer? |
34825 | You mean volcanic ash? |
34825 | You regard this as an entertainment worth waiting for? |
34825 | You say he was drinking-- when you knew him? |
34825 | You think, then, that the spirit grows as the body wastes? |
34825 | You thought much of him then, Father Fontanel? |
34825 | You what? |
34825 | You what? |
34825 | You''ll stay a day or two, wo n''t you? |
34825 | ''What was it, once more, that you mean to do?'' |
34825 | *****"Did you follow_ Moby Dick''s_ whale tracks around the wet wastes of the world?" |
34825 | ... Do you know, I really like to write to you? |
34825 | Add to this, a woman who has come up from the dregs-- for years in the midst of the slum- blooms of the chorus? |
34825 | Am I given the present serenity as a resting- time before meeting a more subtle and formidable enemy? |
34825 | And I know that the wolves shall have been slain, when he comes again----""And the angels, Father?" |
34825 | And the great work? |
34825 | And what of Skylark, the lovely, the winged?..." |
34825 | And who can say that his royal mate will not laughingly unfold wings for him, when they stand together in the radiant altitude? |
34825 | Are there fangs and hackles and claws which I have not yet uncovered? |
34825 | Are you going-- beyond New York?" |
34825 | Are you hurted, sir?" |
34825 | Are you sure he can not prove that false?" |
34825 | As for Madame Nestor, might she not have reached a more acute stage of a similar derangement? |
34825 | Bellingham was calling:"Come to me-- won''t you come and help me in my excellent labors? |
34825 | Bellingham?... |
34825 | But are not these great forces splendid fuel for the mind? |
34825 | But do you mean that now when you do n''t need him any longer-- you told him to go away?" |
34825 | But it is n''t altogether a novelty, is it, for the mountain to behave this way?" |
34825 | But would n''t it be rather severe on the other boys and girls, if the usual formula of perpetuating self is used? |
34825 | By the way, did you hear what happened yesterday, during the darkness and racket while we were at dinner?" |
34825 | Ca n''t you see how it hurt when he turned out to be-- well, that name you refuse to utter?" |
34825 | Can you imagine a colder reception? |
34825 | Did not the latter still dip here, there, and everywhere in the occult and weird? |
34825 | Did she pass on the street men and women in whom the process of soul- starvation was complete or completing? |
34825 | Did some one send for you?" |
34825 | Did you see it?" |
34825 | Do I wake or sleep?" |
34825 | Do n''t you remember, the greatest moment of all-- coming downstairs, partly dressed, into the room_ They_ had made ready? |
34825 | Do you know that we live in the time of a spiritual high- tide? |
34825 | Do you remember the rock in the desert on which you sat and waited long ago? |
34825 | Do you think I can not resist?" |
34825 | Do you wonder that the life from which you have risen to one of the regnant queens has become inseparable in my mind with shuddering aversion?" |
34825 | Does any one happen to know who owns the beautiful ship in the harbor?" |
34825 | Does it not seem very clear to you?... |
34825 | Faintly her heart answered, but quickly,"Yes, if they are forever nameless....""Specific abandonments?" |
34825 | Flowers bloom to catch a bug-- such girls, to catch a man-- perpetuate-- oh God, what for? |
34825 | From the number, I think you must overlook the Park-- don''t you?... |
34825 | Had New York called him? |
34825 | Has my vitality miraculously been preserved for some final battle with a champion of champions of the flesh? |
34825 | Have you a drop left in the heel av the flask, Adele, dear?" |
34825 | Having consented to the trick,_ might she not be listening_?... |
34825 | Her inward joy was to study in Peter Stock the unacknowledged influence of Father Fontanel-- or was it an unconscious influence? |
34825 | How far do you go with the_ Panther_?" |
34825 | How shall she repay man for brutalizing her so long?" |
34825 | How strange, I have always thought of you so? |
34825 | How very strange that you should have heard what I said.... You will join one of his classes, I presume?" |
34825 | I am near.... Come to me, Paula Linster, of plentiful treasures.... Do you not see the open way-- how near I am? |
34825 | I ask you, how is a woman, for the first time alone with a man-- to know that he is different from other men? |
34825 | I ask you-- how did I know he was an exception-- rather than the rule among the Glowworms?" |
34825 | I have symbolized the whole struggle of our race in your personal struggle-- don''t you see this, Paula?... |
34825 | I mean, would he not have to restore his vitality from the others?" |
34825 | I said I was celebrating for two things----""Pray, what is the other?" |
34825 | I wanted to ask if it ever occurred to you that even the_ Morne d''Orange_ might fall into the sweeping range of Pelée''s guns?" |
34825 | I wonder if there ever was a fight that can match mine? |
34825 | I wonder if there is any authority or precedent for such a hope?" |
34825 | I would n''t open any letter from Danube now-- but he shall have his chance----""What do you mean to do?" |
34825 | I''d better get her ready, had n''t I, sir?" |
34825 | If you interest them sexually-- they will hear what you have to say----""Is n''t that a reckless talk?" |
34825 | Inscrutable, but thrilling-- isn''t it, my dear Paula?" |
34825 | Is he not bright and clean and pretty? |
34825 | Is it because the sting is gone from my scar- tissues that I feel so strong and so white to- night? |
34825 | Is n''t it a dear world?" |
34825 | Is n''t it glorious?" |
34825 | It always spoils-- oh, what am I saying? |
34825 | It had been a hard moment for her, but he sprang high among the nobilities of her heart, and was sustained.... What if it were just a throat- singing? |
34825 | It is not well to be a day late...."And did you notice how Felix Larch uncoiled?" |
34825 | It is quite possible that the values of my instruction are over- estimated by many.... Do you mind if I sit down a moment? |
34825 | It would not do, not to go to Father Fontanel-- would it?" |
34825 | Listen, Paula, to New York below-- treading the empty mill of commerce----""New York has not chosen yet?" |
34825 | Macready questioned, and added in a ghost''s whisper,"with the fairest of tin thousand waitin''at the top?" |
34825 | Many times she asked:"Where is the undiscovered master of my heart?" |
34825 | Might she not have something to do with the projectiles of Desire? |
34825 | Might she not have watched for him or be near him now? |
34825 | Mine is a lineage of Kentucky poor white trash, who knows, but a speck of''nigger''? |
34825 | Mondet?" |
34825 | My dear young woman, does n''t a ride on the ocean sound good for this afternoon? |
34825 | My launch is at the Sugar Landing.... On second thought, I''ll go back down- town with you.... Miss Wyndam-- later in the day-- a chat with you?" |
34825 | No other man suffices----""But why-- why do you prepare_ me_? |
34825 | Oh, why must we keep our gods so far away-- lest we lose them? |
34825 | Ointments and bandages were applied before the owner said:"We must be getting pretty close in the harbor?" |
34825 | One thought apart from these effects, Paula could not shake from her mind: Were there human beings with dead or dying souls? |
34825 | Only at its highest speed does the top sing its peace with God.... Had not the finest glow of his powers been reserved until her coming?... |
34825 | Or must there always be this dim, hurting thing? |
34825 | Paula exclaimed...."You think this Bellingham has made the evil choice?" |
34825 | Pelée''s muzzle is turned toward the city----""I sent you many cheers and high hopes-- did they come?" |
34825 | Portions of some of the later letters follow: Did you know, that without the upward spread of wings-- there can be no song from the Skylark? |
34825 | Shall I show you?" |
34825 | Shall I tell you what added thought came to me, as you crossed the floor so unsteadily-- looking so white?" |
34825 | She called him back,"Come and see me-- at my best-- at the_ Herriot_--won''t you?" |
34825 | She had found an old picture of his in a magazine and commented on it deliciously...."I wonder if you think of me as I am-- plain,_ plain_?" |
34825 | She noted the instant contraction of his brows, and shrank inwardly at the hard, rapid tone, with which he darted the question:"Are you a Catholic?" |
34825 | Should she not be thankful that a beyond- devil had been required to test her soul? |
34825 | So_ A Damsel Came to Peter_?" |
34825 | Some brivate vire of yours?'' |
34825 | Some time-- who knows? |
34825 | Stay, wo n''t you please, and share a bite of supper with me, Madame Nestor? |
34825 | Stay, wo n''t you?" |
34825 | Still, do n''t you see it-- how wonderful was your victory to- day?" |
34825 | Stock?" |
34825 | Tell me, can scar- tissue ever be so fine? |
34825 | That moment, before you actually see-- just as you enter the mingled dawn and fire- light and catch the first glisten of the tree?... |
34825 | The American''s further activities unfolded:"By the way, have you been reading the French paper here--_Les Colonies_?" |
34825 | The club type she preferred to know from a sort of middle distance...."Wo n''t you, please?" |
34825 | The critic grasped the low shoulders of a bald, thin- lipped acquaintance, exclaiming:"Where did you get that diadem, Lucky One?" |
34825 | Then he heard:"What is this dripping darkness?" |
34825 | Then she uttered an unforgettable question:"_ Can a tiger eat grains?_"Vast ranges of terrible understanding were suggested. |
34825 | There is a dress- maker-- and_ we_ breakfast together.... Root for me-- for us, to- night-- won''t you, dear girl?" |
34825 | There shall be no note from me----""But did you write to him, Paula?" |
34825 | There was a low, husky laugh, and then plainly these words:"She makes your goppers sizzle-- eh?... |
34825 | There was a mystery left upon the face by the intervening years,"while the tireless soul etched on...."Should she ever know? |
34825 | There was a suggestion of world- wisdom here, or was it world- wear? |
34825 | There''s no fun in giving something you do n''t want.... Are you going to hear Bellingham to- night?" |
34825 | They left her in a dark-- that was madness.... And if they were false, what was the meaning of her exaltations? |
34825 | This is certainly Ash- Wednesday, is n''t it?" |
34825 | Through the ends of these two, had some essential balance of power been preserved in the world? |
34825 | To what god or devil had he sold his soul that he was thus condemned to eternal scrivening? |
34825 | True, as man and woman, they had made no covenant, but to her( and had he not expressed the same in a score of ways? |
34825 | Vite- Apron?'' |
34825 | Was it all the etching of the_ soul_--that this later print revealed?... |
34825 | Was it not good to live, since the sun was trying to shine again and the mountain did not answer the ringing of the bells? |
34825 | Was n''t it monstrous?" |
34825 | We shall_ remember_ then.... And so you live alone? |
34825 | What can happen to a body that continually makes of itself a lying instrument? |
34825 | What could a mind like his_ not_ build about months of communion( eyes and ears strained toward flashing skies) with a Skylark ideal?... |
34825 | What does this mean-- this desire of woman to bring out the latent powers of a stranger''s child? |
34825 | What law, human or divine, was disordered by two human grown- ups with clean minds communing together intimately in letters? |
34825 | What other purpose could he have? |
34825 | What right had she to say that the world- mind was in error and she normal-- she and the unreckonable Madame Nestor?... |
34825 | What, thin, must it be in that pit of destruction?" |
34825 | Where is his valor now, his taking of cities, his smiling deaths for honor? |
34825 | Why should he rush off alone? |
34825 | Why was he so eager for the dawn? |
34825 | Wing often to my window-- won''t you? |
34825 | Wo n''t you let me hear at once, please? |
34825 | Would she ever write again?... |
34825 | Would the City crush him into a trifler, with artificial emotions, or was this a Daniel come to interpret her evil dreams?... |
34825 | You bring the thing home to a room in a New York apartment... Ca n''t you see how hard to adjust, this is? |
34825 | You have come wonderfully and differently into the glare, but let me ask where is Martha Boardman to- night-- a few short years later?" |
34825 | You know him?" |
34825 | You see how I could have spoiled_ The Thing_ last night-- if I had let the passion flood through me like a torrent through a broken dam? |
34825 | You two have had me soaring.... Charter, you do n''t mean to tell me you called Miss Wyndam to meet you in the wine- shop?" |
34825 | You will be here in the morning-- the first thing in the morning?" |
34825 | You work while we sleep-- eh? |
34825 | You, who used to be-- singing flames?" |
39906 | A dragon? |
39906 | A whisky- and- potash? |
39906 | After what you have seen of the rest of the house, this strikes you as being more homelike, does it not? |
39906 | An end of what? |
39906 | And at what hour was that? |
39906 | And does he know that you have come to me now asking me to forgive? |
39906 | And how long will you be here? |
39906 | And knowing that, you would still wish me to pardon him? |
39906 | And now that he has asked you to call upon him what are you going to do? |
39906 | And now that you have plotted and planned, and suffered so much to obtain possession of this book, what use has it been to you? |
39906 | And pray who may Miss Trevor be? |
39906 | And the neatest? |
39906 | And those conclusions were? |
39906 | And what about the other fellow? |
39906 | And what do you think of it, my friend? |
39906 | And what were his first words to her? |
39906 | And you have seen the miserable result? |
39906 | And you help them? |
39906 | And you think I may be able to help you? |
39906 | And you think we shall be there in time to prevent the meeting? |
39906 | And you will come? |
39906 | And you would allow her to die for the sake of a few paltry pounds? |
39906 | And you? |
39906 | And your reply would be? |
39906 | And your wife? 39906 Are you aware that Sir Richard Hatteras was here on the same errand this afternoon?" |
39906 | Are you aware when he will return? |
39906 | Are you quite sure that you have had a pleasant day? |
39906 | Art thou sure''twill be safe, love? |
39906 | As you are such a globe- trotter,I said,"I suppose there is scarcely a portion of the world that you have not visited?" |
39906 | At what time do you dine? |
39906 | But I should like to know, how is he going to marry the best wife in the world? |
39906 | But I was bound to come-- don''t I tell you I could not remain away? 39906 But how do you know the Don is such a good shot?" |
39906 | But now that you know it, can you not avert it? |
39906 | But surely you do n''t suppose that what happened in this room upwards of three hundred years ago could have any effect upon a living being to- day? |
39906 | But what does it all mean, Dick? |
39906 | But what have I done wrong? |
39906 | But what is the letter about? |
39906 | But what possible misfortune could befall you? |
39906 | But what would you ask of me? |
39906 | But who are they? |
39906 | But will it not be necessary for you to take some drugs with you? |
39906 | But you have not told me where you are living now? |
39906 | By the way, I suppose you saw what took place back yonder? |
39906 | Ca n''t you? |
39906 | Can not we persuade you to give us a little more of your society? |
39906 | Can not you guess? |
39906 | Confound you,he answered;"why do you talk like that?" |
39906 | Could I do otherwise? |
39906 | Dear girl,I answered,"are you not a little unreasonable? |
39906 | Did you not notice his manner towards her on the night of our excursion? 39906 Did you not say, only a moment ago, that if he did not know where to find the best wife in the world he was unfit to sit in the House of Lords? |
39906 | Did you not see that she preferred my company to his? |
39906 | Do n''t you know me, Dick? |
39906 | Do n''t you think we had better bid each other good- night? |
39906 | Do you mean the fellow who shot those unfortunate young men? |
39906 | Do you mean to say,I asked,"that you really think that in time it will be possible for us to see things which at present we have no notion of? |
39906 | Do you think I''m going to drink whisky on the night that she has accepted me? 39906 Do you think it will please her to remember that she owes her life to_ me_?" |
39906 | Do you think she will do that? |
39906 | Do you think she will forgive me? |
39906 | Does it not seem that you can hear them now? 39906 Does it require so much bravery, do you think? |
39906 | Don Josè de Martinos? |
39906 | From the way you speak it would appear that_ you_ do not care for Martinos? |
39906 | Good gracious, man!--then why are you so downcast? |
39906 | Good gracious,I cried, in well- simulated amazement,"why on earth to Nikola?" |
39906 | Had not what happened? |
39906 | Has he grown any more commonplace, think you, since you last saw him? |
39906 | Have I not pledged you my word that your friend shall not be hurt? 39906 Have you a gondola below?" |
39906 | Have you any objection to raise, Duke? |
39906 | Have you been long in Venice? |
39906 | Have you enjoyed it, Hatteras? |
39906 | Have you met Doctor Nikola lately? |
39906 | Have you not noticed that they_ both admire Gertrude Trevor_? |
39906 | He does n''t surely suppose she is going to ask him? |
39906 | He is a gambler, then? |
39906 | How could you treat the poor fellow so badly? |
39906 | How do you know that Nikola admires her? |
39906 | How do you know that she is ill? |
39906 | How do you know where the meeting is to take place? |
39906 | How is the patient this morning? |
39906 | How long ago it seems, does it not? 39906 How long do you contemplate remaining in Venice?" |
39906 | How shall we ever be able to reward you, Nikola? |
39906 | How should I know it? |
39906 | I presume you mean because I refuse to allow him to flirt with my wife? |
39906 | I trust I have not tired you? |
39906 | I trust you are looking forward to your excursion, Miss Trevor? |
39906 | If it is the Lord''s will that I lose her, what can I do but submit? |
39906 | If you are proceeding in the direction of the piazza, will you permit me to accompany you? |
39906 | Is he teasing you again, Gertrude? |
39906 | Is it likely that I should be angry with you, Miss Gertrude? |
39906 | Is it likely that I should think of going there just now? 39906 Is it permissible to ask where you are staying?" |
39906 | Is n''t it nice to see them together? |
39906 | Is she asleep, or have you brought your diabolical influence upon her? |
39906 | Is she usually of an excitable disposition? |
39906 | Is your master not well? |
39906 | It was this,she answered--"''_Remember that I have forgiven; it is for you to forget._''What could he have meant?" |
39906 | Lady Hatteras, may I help you into the gondola? |
39906 | Look, Gertrude, are they not beautiful? |
39906 | Look,she answered,"can you see the table a little to the right of that at which those officers are seated?" |
39906 | May I remind you,I said,"that you have known her barely a week? |
39906 | Might it not be the association that is responsible? |
39906 | Miss Trevor? |
39906 | My God, Dick,he said,"did you see what happened in that room? |
39906 | My dear boy,I said, as we walked along,"why on earth did you do it? |
39906 | My dear little woman,I said in reply,"will nothing convince you that you are playing with fire? |
39906 | Nikola,I said;"you do not happen to have met him, I suppose?" |
39906 | Oh, dear,she began, hesitating in pretended consternation,"is there never to be an end of it?" |
39906 | Otherwise how am I to account for this late call? |
39906 | Our little party of four was so happily arranged, and who knows but that a fifth may upset its peace altogether? |
39906 | Perhaps we might be able to persuade you to give us the pleasure of your company? |
39906 | Perhaps you can tell me which is the Palace Revecce? |
39906 | Perhaps your Excellency would like to see the other Senor? |
39906 | Perhaps, Lady Hatteras, you will permit me to do myself the honour of calling upon you? |
39906 | Poor girl, I wonder what on earth it can be? |
39906 | Pray what part of Central America does he know? |
39906 | Pray who were the people we saw there? 39906 Richard, how can you stand there and say such things?" |
39906 | Shall I take it or shall I not? |
39906 | Sir Richard,she said,"would you mind very much if I were to ask you a most important question? |
39906 | So it has come to this, has it? 39906 So it was only of yourself you were thinking?" |
39906 | So the Senor Nikola has gone away never to return? |
39906 | So you have travelled as far as that, have you? |
39906 | Spoil what? |
39906 | Suffered? |
39906 | Surely that is very singular, is it not? |
39906 | Surely to see him once more could do no harm? 39906 Surely you could not find it in your heart to treat a fellow- creature so?" |
39906 | That would be so nice, would n''t it? |
39906 | Then it was the yacht you were thinking about? 39906 Then why on earth does n''t Martinos keep out of my way?" |
39906 | Then you admit that she was only playing her fish? |
39906 | Then you are not able to give me any encouragement? |
39906 | Those were dear old days, were they not? 39906 To Central America?" |
39906 | To fight a duel? |
39906 | Very likely, but would any man make her happy? |
39906 | Was I to put up with that? |
39906 | Was she surprised when she regained consciousness to find Nikola at her bedside? |
39906 | Well, what is your opinion of Nikola now? |
39906 | What about this dinner at Nikola''s house to- night? 39906 What became of the boy at last?" |
39906 | What could have made the Duke behave like that? |
39906 | What do you mean? |
39906 | What do you mean? |
39906 | What do you mean? |
39906 | What do you say if we run down to Rome next week? |
39906 | What do you say now? |
39906 | What do you say to the invitation? |
39906 | What do you say? |
39906 | What do you think of her condition now, doctor? |
39906 | What do you think of your friend now? |
39906 | What do you think you see? |
39906 | What does he say about her? |
39906 | What has the cat seen in this room that is so strange? |
39906 | What have they to quarrel about? |
39906 | What have you done? |
39906 | What if I do admit it? |
39906 | What if your dream were correct? 39906 What is it can not be possible?" |
39906 | What is it she fears will happen if she goes away from Venice? |
39906 | What is it you have to say? |
39906 | What is it, Henry? |
39906 | What is that? |
39906 | What is the question you wish to ask me? |
39906 | What makes you think that? |
39906 | What news? |
39906 | What of it? |
39906 | What was it? |
39906 | What? |
39906 | When I know that there are? |
39906 | When shall I be allowed to see her? |
39906 | Where is Doctor Nikola? |
39906 | Where on earth have you been? 39906 Who can it be?" |
39906 | Who is the most unlikely person you would expect to see in Venice at the present moment? |
39906 | Who would know of it? |
39906 | Why am I absurd? |
39906 | Why did the woman allow it to continue? 39906 Why do you urge him now to do it?" |
39906 | Why not? |
39906 | Why on earth does he not try his fortune upon the stage? |
39906 | Why should I be? 39906 Why should I be?" |
39906 | Why should I? |
39906 | Why should you? 39906 Why, what is the matter? |
39906 | Will you smile upon him again? 39906 Will you tell me what it is?" |
39906 | Wo n''t you come up- stairs, Sir Richard? |
39906 | Would it be indiscreet to ask what is the matter with the Don? |
39906 | Would it be safe to try Nikola? |
39906 | Would it be such a very mad thing if I did fall in love? |
39906 | Would it not be as well, do you think, for you to preserve those pretty little prevarications until you are in the gondola? 39906 Would you call the man who shot down those innocent young men of Equinata, before their mothers''eyes, a fellow- creature? |
39906 | Would you care to see it? |
39906 | You are determined? |
39906 | You are not worrying about that wretched fellow''s rudeness, I hope? |
39906 | You are perhaps a believer in dreams? |
39906 | You are surprised? 39906 You can give me no explanation, then?" |
39906 | You confess then that the whole business has been one long scheme to entrap this wretched man, and to get him into your power? |
39906 | You have come to the conclusion, then, that I am responsible for that also? |
39906 | You have never been in South America then? |
39906 | You have not asked her, how therefore can you tell? |
39906 | You have other patients? |
39906 | You have saved him? |
39906 | You of course heard how he insulted the Duke? |
39906 | You really wish it? |
39906 | You think so, do you? |
39906 | You were in opposition to Balmaceda, then? |
39906 | ''Why on earth does n''t he marry this American? |
39906 | ''_ Noch niemand entfloh dem verhangten Geschick._''""And you were brave enough to look?" |
39906 | And for what?" |
39906 | And now, since our cigars are finished, what do you say to bed? |
39906 | And what did you say?" |
39906 | And why should n''t I? |
39906 | And why was so much secrecy observed?" |
39906 | And yet, I asked myself, why should I worry so much about it? |
39906 | Are you also aware that it was at the very moment of his arrival in the house that Gertrude was taken ill? |
39906 | Are you to be tempted to see your own end?" |
39906 | As I had not rung the bell, but had been admitted by the old man- servant, how could he have become aware of my presence? |
39906 | As I looked at the latter I wondered whether Nikola were in the room, and if so, what he was doing? |
39906 | As I understand the Duke of Glenbarth is with you, will you not bring him also? |
39906 | As it is the last time I shall be likely to see him for many years, I feel sure you will not mind my accepting his invitation?" |
39906 | As she had never looked behind her, how had she known this also? |
39906 | At the same time, will you tell me whether you deem it necessary for me to summon her father from England?" |
39906 | But if so, what was he doing here under our windows? |
39906 | But if this were so, why had she chosen this particular house? |
39906 | But why did he let me see it? |
39906 | But why was he coming to us? |
39906 | By the way, have you seen our friend, Don Martinos, since you dined together at my house?" |
39906 | CHAPTER VII"You surely are not going to dine with Doctor Nikola in that strange house?" |
39906 | Ca n''t you picture the pride of that worthy gentleman''s family when they produce the album on Sunday afternoons and show it to their friends? |
39906 | Ca n''t you understand how I feel? |
39906 | Can not you and your wife dine with us to- night?" |
39906 | Can you imagine the scene? |
39906 | Can you not think of anything? |
39906 | Could my dream have been true, after all? |
39906 | Could she be a somnambulist? |
39906 | Could the life you offer me give me the power I possess now? |
39906 | Could the respectability of Clapham recompense me for the knowledge with which the East can furnish me?" |
39906 | Did I not tell you then that our Destinies were inextricably woven together? |
39906 | Did he not cure my child?" |
39906 | Did my eyes deceive me, or was this the man who had accompanied the Police Agent to Nikola''s residence on the previous evening? |
39906 | Did n''t I tell you that those other medicos did not know what they were doing, and that Nikola is the greatest doctor in the world?" |
39906 | Did you not say that he ought to be ashamed of himself if he did not ask her to be his wife? |
39906 | Did you notice his infirmity?" |
39906 | Did you notice with what respect he was treated by everybody we met, and how anxious they were not to run the risk of offending him?" |
39906 | Do n''t you feel a bit nervous about it yourself?" |
39906 | Do n''t you think it would be wiser if you were to stick to plain facts?" |
39906 | Do n''t you think we had better send for the doctor?" |
39906 | Do you agree?" |
39906 | Do you happen to be aware, Dick, that Doctor Nikola called at this hotel at exactly eleven o''clock?" |
39906 | Do you mean to tell me that you live alone in it?" |
39906 | Do you notice how prettily she gives him her hand so that he may help her into the boat?" |
39906 | Do you recall the gusto with which Nikola related it?" |
39906 | Do you remember the story of the Revolution in the Republic of Equinata?" |
39906 | Do you think I am bothering myself at such a time about that wretched Mitchell? |
39906 | Do you think I can not see through it and read between the lines? |
39906 | Do you think Lady Hatteras and Miss Trevor will care about such an excursion?" |
39906 | Do you think that I did not notice the expression that came into your face whenever you looked at him? |
39906 | Do you think that we have returned to the times of the Borgias, and that Nikola will poison us? |
39906 | Do you think you can grant it?" |
39906 | Do you understand?'' |
39906 | Does he altogether reside in Venice?" |
39906 | Even if my suspicions were correct what could I do, and what chance could I hope to have of being able to induce Nikola to confide in me? |
39906 | Had he then intended calling to see her, even supposing I had not come to ask his assistance? |
39906 | Had she known the terrible suspicion that was growing in my own mind, I wonder what she would have said, and also how she would have acted? |
39906 | Has she not the second prettiest hands, and the second neatest ankle, in all Europe?" |
39906 | How could I reveal to him the awful fear that was slowly but surely taking possession of me? |
39906 | How could I tell him the thought that was in my own mind? |
39906 | How could she have become aware of this fact? |
39906 | How dare you say, Dick, that I flirt with the Duke?" |
39906 | How did you get here?" |
39906 | How is she now?" |
39906 | How is your wife, how are you, and what sort of holiday are you having?" |
39906 | I believe Lady Hatteras takes my side?" |
39906 | I could not let the Duke and Martinos go alone, so what can I do?" |
39906 | I could sympathize with him, for had I not seen the same thing myself? |
39906 | I do hope that Doctor Nikola and the Duke wo n''t quarrel?" |
39906 | I do n''t want to discourage you, but is not your affection of rather quick growth?" |
39906 | I felt that I needed help, but to whom should I apply for it? |
39906 | I have told you that I love her, do you think there is any chance of her taking a liking to me?" |
39906 | I held open the door for her, and as she passed I said--"You will do what I ask? |
39906 | I hope you are satisfied that I have done all I can in her interests?" |
39906 | I inquired whether his master was at home, and, if so, whether I could see him? |
39906 | I inquired, when I had finished reading,"shall we go?" |
39906 | I suppose there is no fear of his repeating it to- night?" |
39906 | I suppose your man has discovered it by this time?" |
39906 | I then inquired whether Nikola had seen him? |
39906 | I trust Lady Hatteras and Miss Trevor are well?" |
39906 | If not, what were his reasons for so doing? |
39906 | If she had known the truth, I wonder what she would have said? |
39906 | If she has made no other arrangements, at what hour shall we start?" |
39906 | If you will allow me I will call for you, shall we say at half- past eight? |
39906 | In that case what was to be done? |
39906 | In that case, as we monopolized the whole of the corridor, who could it be? |
39906 | Is it so difficult to learn?" |
39906 | Is it your Grace''s opinion that a husband should of necessity take upon himself the properties of a dragon?" |
39906 | Is n''t it splendid of him?'' |
39906 | Is the poor dragon to receive nothing? |
39906 | Is your life of so little value to yourself or to your friends, that you try to throw it away in this reckless fashion?" |
39906 | Just to please me?" |
39906 | Let it suffice that there are times even now, when the mere thought of it is sufficient to bring-- but there-- why should I continue in this strain? |
39906 | Like Glenbarth I could only ask the same question-- Why? |
39906 | May not debauchery tell its own tale?" |
39906 | Miss Gertrude, if I may hazard a guess, I should say that you have been dreaming about Doctor Nikola again?" |
39906 | Miss Gertrude, will you not intercede for me?" |
39906 | My dear old Dick, how are you?" |
39906 | Now how am I likely to be able to do so, considering that you''ve told me nothing about it? |
39906 | Now tell me, what is your most pleasant recollection of a meal?" |
39906 | Oh, why did he come here to spoil our holiday?" |
39906 | One was undoubtedly the Don, but who was the third? |
39906 | Perhaps you can not recall that day at Capri?" |
39906 | Should I enter behind her and accuse Nikola of having enticed her there, or should I wait outside and overhear what transpired between them? |
39906 | Since he had owned to it, what was I to do? |
39906 | Surely he did not mean to speak to us? |
39906 | Surely the Authorities of a State which prided itself upon its enlightenment, even in those dark ages, would not have tolerated such a thing?" |
39906 | Surely you will not allow that brave young life to be sacrificed by that Spaniard?" |
39906 | Take another week, or shall we say a fortnight? |
39906 | That we shall be able to look into the world we have always been taught to consider Unknowable?" |
39906 | The other doctors do n''t like my interference, I suppose?" |
39906 | The writing will not be suspected, and I will drop it in the Lion''s Mouth myself,--and then?" |
39906 | Then he added, with what was intended to be a touch of sarcasm,"I hope you have spent a pleasant evening?" |
39906 | Then she added,"I wonder what the Duke will say when he hears the news?" |
39906 | Then turning to Miss Trevor, he said,"I hope you will grant me your gracious intercession, Miss Trevor?" |
39906 | Then turning to me he continued,"Do you know who that is? |
39906 | Then turning to me, she added,"You are going to smoke, I suppose?" |
39906 | Then what have you discovered?" |
39906 | Then why allow him to continue in his wrong- doing? |
39906 | There is one thing, however, that puzzles me; how did he become aware of my arrival in Venice? |
39906 | There was not one who did not do her honour, and among the women who were her guests that night, how many were there who envied her good fortune? |
39906 | To prove it, let me ask you how you received that long scratch that shows upon your neck and throat?" |
39906 | Was it kindness that had induced the latter to take him in? |
39906 | Was it possible that Glenbarth was jealous of Nikola? |
39906 | Was it true, as he had said, that in his hour of distress Nikola had afforded him an asylum? |
39906 | Was she mad that she did not summon assistance? |
39906 | Was she quite sure that she was comfortable? |
39906 | Was this a trick of Nikola''s, or had her terrible dreams taken such a hold upon her that she was not responsible for her actions? |
39906 | Well, what do you want me to do?" |
39906 | What are you doing in Venice, Dick?" |
39906 | What could I do? |
39906 | What could I say? |
39906 | What could be more natural? |
39906 | What did Gertrude Trevor think of it?" |
39906 | What did he say about it?" |
39906 | What difference would it make?" |
39906 | What do you say?" |
39906 | What do you think his appearance in Venice means?" |
39906 | What do you think is the reason of it?" |
39906 | What do you think of that? |
39906 | What do you think of that?" |
39906 | What do you think will happen to me? |
39906 | What does Schiller say? |
39906 | What does she say?" |
39906 | What does the doctor say is the matter with her?" |
39906 | What have you to say to my proposal?" |
39906 | What if I do admit the truth of all you say?" |
39906 | What is it?" |
39906 | What is the use of my waiting even a week when I know my own mind already?" |
39906 | What is this man to you that you should befriend him? |
39906 | What on earth have you to be so unhappy about?" |
39906 | What was I to do? |
39906 | What were we going to see next? |
39906 | What would my position be if Nikola''s presence should exercise a bad effect upon the patient, or if he should decline to render us assistance? |
39906 | What would they have said and thought? |
39906 | What, therefore, am I to believe? |
39906 | When they had gone, Nikola, who was standing at the window, turned to me, saying--"What do you think of my conjuring?" |
39906 | Where is he now?" |
39906 | Who do you think is in Venice?" |
39906 | Who is she?" |
39906 | Who knows that better than yourself? |
39906 | Who was Nikola''s mysterious caller, and what made him come at such an hour? |
39906 | Why had Nikola invited the Don to his house? |
39906 | Why had he shown him the picture of that terrible crime? |
39906 | Why not leave this terrible gloom? |
39906 | Why on earth does that troublesome man come between them?" |
39906 | Why should I be so anxious to interfere on the wretched Spaniard''s behalf? |
39906 | Why should I not be able to make her happy? |
39906 | Why should he not be punished as he deserved, and why should not Nikola be his executioner? |
39906 | Why should he?" |
39906 | Why should it not be done? |
39906 | Why should the fact that he was so doing produce such a result? |
39906 | Why should you attribute Miss Trevor''s illness to Nikola''s courtesy to our friend the Don?" |
39906 | Why? |
39906 | Why? |
39906 | Why? |
39906 | Why? |
39906 | Will you excuse me if I go down and find out the meaning of it?" |
39906 | Wo n''t you come and dine with us?" |
39906 | Would Miss Trevor like another cushion? |
39906 | Would she have preferred a gondola to a barca? |
39906 | Would you therefore have me suppose that it was on account of his arrival that you were taken ill? |
39906 | Yet I feel that I am hiding so much-- can you understand what I mean?" |
39906 | Yet, I had to ask myself, if he were in Nikola''s employ, why should he have been anxious to do so? |
39906 | You do n''t mean to say that you have seen Nikola again?" |
39906 | You seemed to be very keen on going last night; are you of the same mind this morning?" |
39906 | You will make an allowance for me, will you not?" |
39906 | You wo n''t tell Lady Hatteras, will you?" |
39906 | You would? |
39906 | You''ll take a revolver with you of course?" |
39906 | _ The house to which I had followed her was the Palace Revecce, and she was on her way to Nikola!_ But for what reason? |
39906 | and if so, why was the latter doing so? |
39906 | he said, moving forward to greet her,"what does this mean? |
37775 | A geyser? |
37775 | A walrus? |
37775 | A whale? |
37775 | Ah,he said;"then you wish to modify your assertion-- you only believe what others have seen?" |
37775 | Am I destined to deal with these problems? |
37775 | Am I not speaking? 37775 Am I to infer from your remarks that, in the course of time, man will be able to economize this force, and adapt it to his wants?" |
37775 | Am I to leave you? |
37775 | And I am not to receive the remainder of your story? |
37775 | And I have been referred to you as a conscientious scientific teacher,I said;"why do you speak so facetiously?" |
37775 | And am I really to take an important part in this scheme? 37775 And heat?" |
37775 | And is that all that could be learned? |
37775 | And may I go? 37775 And so you believe only what you see?" |
37775 | And that my experience was illusory, the result of vertigo, or some temporary calenture of the brain? |
37775 | And what of gravitation? |
37775 | And why should n''t you? |
37775 | And you make this assertion, and then ask me to go no further into the subject? |
37775 | Are pain, pleasure, and living, imaginary creations? |
37775 | Are still greater wonders before us? |
37775 | Are we nearing humanity again? |
37775 | Are you not mistaken? |
37775 | Are you ready to challenge my statements? |
37775 | Are you ready to listen? |
37775 | Are you sure that my guide did not lead me through the space between the bubbles? |
37775 | Are you sure? |
37775 | Are you to be mine? |
37775 | Are you willing to relinquish your former associations, to cease to concern yourself in the affairs of men? 37775 Back, I say, back to earth, or--""Or what?" |
37775 | Binding me to an oath of secrecy? |
37775 | But I have understood that drunkenness is a vice inherent only in civilized people; are not you mistaken? |
37775 | But do you expect to extend your call until morning? |
37775 | But we approach the earth''s surface? 37775 But what are you?" |
37775 | But where can I find such works? 37775 But why are you here? |
37775 | By what authority do you make this assertion? |
37775 | Can any man prove either of these premises? |
37775 | Can not you understand that I have led you continually down a steep descent, and that for hours there has been no step upward? 37775 Can not you understand that you are not now on the surface of the earth? |
37775 | Can philosophers more than speculate about that which they have not experienced if they have no data from which to calculate? 37775 Can that be a surface of water?" |
37775 | Can this oscillation ever end? 37775 Can you not tell me, comrade, how long our journey will last? |
37775 | Could you then have snapped a pencil? 37775 Did I assert,"he questioned,"that your experiences were scattered over that entire period?" |
37775 | Did not Shakspeare write,''There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy''? |
37775 | Did the aborigines know how to make intoxicants, and were barbarians intemperate before contact with civilized nations? |
37775 | Did what? |
37775 | Did you ever calculate the tensile strength of the material from which you blew the bubble? |
37775 | Did you ever observe a bubble resting on a bubble? |
37775 | Did you ever place a pipe- stem in a partly filled bowl of soap water, and by blowing through it fill the bowl with bubbles? |
37775 | Did you ever see Greenland? |
37775 | Did you not question the possibility of the description I gave of my grotesque drunkards, and of the form of my subterranean guide? |
37775 | Disturbances of what? |
37775 | Disturbances of what? |
37775 | Do any of the subjects of our dreams or visions leave tangible evidences of their presence? |
37775 | Do you accept my history? |
37775 | Do you assert that the prism is capable of only partly analyzing the sunlight? |
37775 | Do you dispute the assertion seriously? |
37775 | Do you give up? |
37775 | Do you know that I perceived between you two men an unconscious display of mind- language, especially evident on your part? 37775 Do you know,"I interrupted,"that if these statements were made to men they would not be credited? |
37775 | Do you mean that, among men, there are a few persons possessed of powers such as you have mentioned? |
37775 | Do you not remember that you ceased to respire, and were not conscious of the fact? |
37775 | Do you not see that the stone recedes from beneath us, that we stand on the edge of a wedge overhanging bottomless space? |
37775 | Do you say that the atmosphere is composed of substances unknown to man? |
37775 | Do you take me for a fool? |
37775 | Dried bed? |
37775 | England? |
37775 | Exactly at the earth''s exterior surface? |
37775 | France? |
37775 | Has any man of your acquaintance seen the middle of Africa? |
37775 | Has liquid iron strength? |
37775 | Have I not demonstrated that, by properly connecting the liquids, the lighter flows into the heavier, and raises itself above the former surface? |
37775 | Have I won the wager? |
37775 | Have not I strength? |
37775 | Have not men demonstrated, and is it not accepted beyond the shadow of a doubt, that sound is produced by vibrations of the air? |
37775 | Have others overcome the instinctive terrors to which you allude? |
37775 | Have you not already investigated some of the statements I previously made? |
37775 | Have you not occasionally felt,he asked,"that in your former life your mind was a slave in an earthly prison? |
37775 | Have you not read history? 37775 Have you seen the stomach of any of your friends?" |
37775 | Heat, light, electricity? |
37775 | How am I to descend into that abyss? |
37775 | How can I believe you? |
37775 | How can a thin stratum of water give rise to a volcanic eruption? |
37775 | How can there be others here? |
37775 | How do you explain the fact that incidents occupying a large portion of the night, occurred in an interval which you describe as a flash? |
37775 | How long does it require for pure prussic acid to produce its physiological action? |
37775 | How long shall we continue in this carriage? |
37775 | How long will this continue? |
37775 | I beg of you, I implore of you, not to abandon me now; have you no compassion, no feeling? 37775 Iceland?" |
37775 | In what else than energy( sunshine) does it differ from food? |
37775 | In what respect? |
37775 | Is it as strong as before? |
37775 | Is it not self- evident that a fountain can not rise above its source? |
37775 | Is it still matter? |
37775 | Is it the material of the iron, or is it the energy called heat that qualifies the strength of the metal? 37775 Is manure a food?" |
37775 | Is not manure matter? |
37775 | Is not the truth, the truth? |
37775 | Is not this delightful? |
37775 | Is not this experiment a natural one? |
37775 | Is not this matter? |
37775 | Is not this salt? |
37775 | Is that a mortal? |
37775 | Is there a madman who does not imagine, as facts, what others agree upon as hallucinations peculiar to himself? 37775 Is there any argument that can be offered to controvert the assertion that man is ignorant of many natural laws?" |
37775 | Is there any danger to the earth itself? 37775 Is there any doubt that a force, distinct and separate from matter, influences matter and vivifies it into a living personality?" |
37775 | Is this another hallucination? |
37775 | Is water, then, the universal cause of volcanoes? |
37775 | Listen, does not my voice resemble that of your escaped prisoner? |
37775 | Listen,he said,"have you not observed that these creatures do not seek to harm you? |
37775 | May it not become a food again, as the part of another plant, when another season passes? |
37775 | Mine forever? |
37775 | Misery of what? |
37775 | Motion of what? |
37775 | Must I go with you into an unknown future without a farewell kiss from my little child or from my babe scarce three months old? |
37775 | My God,I shouted,"what have I done that you should murder me?" |
37775 | No,I said musingly;"she is a creature of other climes; the Scriptures tell of no such being; she is neither human nor angelic, but--""But what?" |
37775 | Now, do you see the reflection? |
37775 | Of what are they composed? |
37775 | Or all possible narcotics? |
37775 | Rapid motion produces friction, I believe? |
37775 | See; is not the shadow flattened, as your earth is, at the poles? |
37775 | Shall I proceed? |
37775 | Shall I proceed? |
37775 | Shall I teach them of what you have shown me? |
37775 | So you think that I am in need of out- door exercise? |
37775 | Suppose two such globes of energy, covered with dust, were to be telescoped or attached together, would you marvel at the fact? |
37775 | Tell me, then, could you not have performed this experiment in my room, or in the dark cellar of my house? |
37775 | Tell me, what is this barrier? |
37775 | Tell me,I cried in alarm,"is this to be a living tomb? |
37775 | Tell me,I said,"how long will those beings rest in these caverns?" |
37775 | That would be dangerous,I answered;"can not we descend at some point where it is not so deep?" |
37775 | That your heart had stopped beating, your blood no longer circulated, while you were in ignorance of the change? |
37775 | The back of your head? |
37775 | The center of the earth? |
37775 | The material is the same, is it not? |
37775 | The opposite side of the moon? |
37775 | The soul of man? |
37775 | Then I can return if I so elect? |
37775 | Then what have you gained by your stupid perversity? |
37775 | Then why should you have expected any of them to describe our surroundings? 37775 Then you do not believe that Africa has a midland, the earth a center, the moon an opposite side, man a soul, force an existence?" |
37775 | Then you do not believe that these conditions, countries, and animals have an existence? |
37775 | Then,said the old man,"how can I use words with established meanings to convey to your senses an entirely new idea? |
37775 | There is no wind to ruffle this aqueous surface,--why should it not be quiescent? 37775 They are certainly very simple; do you accept?" |
37775 | They have no eyes,I exclaimed, forgetting that I spoke to an eyeless being;"how can they see?" |
37775 | This I will surely do; what shall it be? |
37775 | To what do you allude? |
37775 | To what? |
37775 | Well, then, what is to prevent your expected guest from awaiting your return? 37775 Well,"he said, ignoring my remark;"what do you believe?" |
37775 | Well? |
37775 | Well? |
37775 | What can I offer as a retribution? |
37775 | What do you desire? |
37775 | What do you mean? |
37775 | What have I to fear? |
37775 | What have you done? |
37775 | What have you done? |
37775 | What if I decide to return? |
37775 | What is food? |
37775 | What is this? |
37775 | What of this ether? |
37775 | What part of the narrative do you question? |
37775 | What shall I call you? |
37775 | What strength has charcoal? |
37775 | What then should prevent this force from existing separate from the body if it be capable of existing in it? |
37775 | What will be the end? |
37775 | What would happen if a crevice in the bottom of the ocean should conduct the waters of the ocean into a deposit of metallic bases? |
37775 | When will that hour come? |
37775 | Where are we now? |
37775 | Where have you been during the wretched epochs that have passed since I last saw you? |
37775 | Where is the bar of iron? |
37775 | Who created the steam engine? 37775 Who has pronounced this sentence?" |
37775 | Who is more free to criticise religion than the materialistic man of science? |
37775 | Who places the infidel in possession of arguments to combat sacred teachings? 37775 Why are they so distorted?" |
37775 | Why call me aught? 37775 Why did not your boat become heated even to redness? |
37775 | Why did you make an appointment at all, in the face of the fact that you not only expected a visitor, but were anxious to meet him? |
37775 | Why did you make an appointment for ten o''clock instead of eight, if you wished to keep away from your apartments? |
37775 | Why do you call me Father? |
37775 | Why does brittle, cold zinc, when heated, become first ductile, and then, at an increased temperature, become brittle again? 37775 Why have you treated me so inhumanly? |
37775 | Why is it,I asked,"that parts of these creatures shrink away as some special organ increases?" |
37775 | Why not give it to such persons? |
37775 | Why not go home and receive your guest in becoming style? |
37775 | Why? |
37775 | Why? |
37775 | Why? |
37775 | Will you inform me concerning the nature of the obstacle I have to overcome, that you indicate by your vague references? |
37775 | Will you tell me how the vibration of any of these bodies impresses the seat of hearing? |
37775 | With great rapidity? |
37775 | Would not your material body have been intact? |
37775 | Would you have me view the soul of man as I would a material being? |
37775 | Would you murder me? 37775 Would you surely know him if you met him?" |
37775 | Yes,I replied;"but tell me further, now that you have excited my interest, have I seen and learned all that man can discover in this direction?" |
37775 | Yes; but can you conceive of any method by which such voluntary motion can now be acquired? |
37775 | You do not mean an exact globe? |
37775 | You have not explained the phenomenon; how does that tympanic membrane communicate with the brain? |
37775 | You have used the term sunshine freely; tell me what is sunshine? 37775 You must admit, however, that it is necessary?" |
37775 | You speak in enigmas; what is this Sphere of Rest? 37775 You trifle with me; I weigh over one hundred and fifty pounds; how have I lost weight? |
37775 | Your stomach? |
37775 | ''What is it that animates this frame? |
37775 | A sudden impulse seized me, and I said:"May I ask one question?" |
37775 | After a pause my pilot asked me abruptly:"What do you most desire?" |
37775 | After a time the old man removed the candle from my hand, and said:"Do you accept the fact? |
37775 | Aluminum is a light metal, gold a heavy one; what reason can you offer to explain the facts other than the inadequate term density? |
37775 | Am I not a freeman of America?" |
37775 | And may not their efforts at communication fail because of our ignorance of a language they can read? |
37775 | And why do you doubt?" |
37775 | And yet--""And yet what?" |
37775 | Are not such lakes saline, even though the source of supply is comparatively fresh? |
37775 | Are we to remain suspended here forever, and if not, by what method can we hope to extricate ourselves from this state of perfect quiescence?" |
37775 | Are you ready?" |
37775 | Are you sure that your conceptions of these results are justified by normal perception? |
37775 | Are you willing to go on this journey of exploration? |
37775 | Art thou, Gravitation, a voice? |
37775 | Assuming that you know him, may I ask how long it is since you have seen him?'' |
37775 | Attempt to originate an idea, and see if you can escape your word- master?" |
37775 | Before we proceed further, however, can you think of any point on which you need enlightenment? |
37775 | Believe ye that I conceal the art out of envy? |
37775 | Besides, did I not several times in the past bring experimental proof to dispel your incredulity? |
37775 | Besides, why should not science be judged by the rule she applies to others?" |
37775 | But was it a ghost? |
37775 | But what need of many words? |
37775 | CHAPTER L. MY WEIGHT ANNIHILATED.--"TELL ME,"I CRIED IN ALARM,"IS THIS TO BE A LIVING TOMB?" |
37775 | Can any man outline the bridge that connects the intellect with nerve or brain, mind, or with any form of matter? |
37775 | Copper produces green or blue salts; nickel produces green salts; have you ever been told why they observe these rules? |
37775 | Could I not, by some method, convince my friends of my identity? |
37775 | Could any man from the data of my past experiences have predicted such a scene? |
37775 | Could it be possible that I was really so changed? |
37775 | Could not my self- existence be blotted out in like manner? |
37775 | Could you even have blown the down from a thistle bloom?" |
37775 | Could you have broken a reed? |
37775 | Did I assert that he had never lived among mortals of upper earth? |
37775 | Did I fancy, or was it real? |
37775 | Did I not tell you that after the fact had been made plain it was easy to see how Columbus stood the egg on its end? |
37775 | Did I say that he was always a cavern being? |
37775 | Did you ever stop to think that the mind can not now bring to the senses the configuration, or nature, of the substance in which mind exists? |
37775 | Did you not obligate yourself before man, and on your sacred honor promise to preserve our secrets?" |
37775 | Did you not voluntarily ask admission into our ancient brotherhood, and in good faith were you not initiated into our sacred mysteries? |
37775 | Did your''philosophy''never lead you to think of this?" |
37775 | Do you accept that material bliss is impossible, and that while humanity is working towards the undiscovered land, man is not, can not be satisfied?" |
37775 | Do you conceive my meaning?" |
37775 | Do you consent?" |
37775 | Do you know, Mr. Cicero, that this statement is not sound? |
37775 | Do you mean to assert that I can not think without using words?" |
37775 | Do you not hear them? |
37775 | Do you see what you think you see? |
37775 | Each volume adds to the oppression, each old tome casts the influence of its spirit over the beholder, for have not these old books spirits? |
37775 | HEARING WITHOUT EARS.--"WHAT WILL BE THE END?" |
37775 | Had I not alternately begged for and then cursed each gift of God? |
37775 | Had I not prayed for heat, cold, light, and darkness, and anathematized each? |
37775 | Had I not previously, in the most solemn manner, before these words had been imparted to my keeping, sworn to keep them inviolate and secret? |
37775 | Had not my peculiar habits of isolation, irregular and intense study, erratic living, all conspired to unseat reason? |
37775 | Had the old book some mesmeric power? |
37775 | Have I been set apart to explore a section of the unknown for a bit of hidden knowledge, and to return again?" |
37775 | Have I demonstrated the truth of the assertion?" |
37775 | Have I not been courteous?" |
37775 | Have I not heard your voice, and that, too, since you asserted that we had left the atmosphere?" |
37775 | Have I not suffered enough from your persecutions to make me reject that word as applied to yourselves? |
37775 | Have chemists explained why one object is transparent, and another of equal weight and solidity is opaque? |
37775 | Have chemists told you why the prism disarranges or distorts sunlight to produce the abnormal hues that men assume compose elementary rays of light? |
37775 | Have men any data on hand to show exactly how matter is distributed below the limited zone that is accessible to their investigations?" |
37775 | Have not all of them spoken kindly, have any offered violence?" |
37775 | Have we not been permitted to do his bidding well?" |
37775 | Have you forgotten that your motion is continuously accelerated, and that without perceptible exertion you move rapidly? |
37775 | Have you learned that facts are fallacies, and physical existence a delusion? |
37775 | Have you never heard of what men call artesian wells?" |
37775 | Have you never thought of the connected tribulations that the wear and tear of respiration alone inflict upon the human family? |
37775 | Have you never, especially in your dreams, experienced a sensation of mental confinement?" |
37775 | Have you not betrayed your trust, and merited a severe judgment? |
37775 | Have you not shuddered at the crimes recorded in the name of the religions of man?" |
37775 | Have you not taken from me all that men love or cherish, and undone every tie of kith or kin? |
37775 | He explained:"Did you not sometime back experience that your own voice was thrown from your body?" |
37775 | He lowered the weapon, and calmly asked:"Suppose that I had crushed your skull-- where then would be your vaunted strength?" |
37775 | Hearing Without Ears--"What Will Be the End?" |
37775 | How can men so circumscribed construct a new idea or teach a new science?" |
37775 | How could I, unaided, recross that glassy lake, and pass through the grotesque forests of fungi and the labyrinth of crystal grottoes of the salt bed? |
37775 | How does the maple- tree secrete a sweet, wholesome sap, and deadly nightshade, growing in the same soil and living on the same elements, a poison? |
37775 | How does the tree- frog change its color? |
37775 | How else could the will of men and animals impart voluntary motion to earthy bodies? |
37775 | How often are we courageous in daylight and timid by night? |
37775 | How often does one sit in wintry evening musings, and trace in the glowing embers the features of an absent friend? |
37775 | I cried aloud in amazement:"Am I sane, is this a dream?" |
37775 | I stretched out my hand, I leaned over almost into the other vehicle, and earnestly said:"Do you not know me? |
37775 | If not all true, where did fact end and fancy begin? |
37775 | If the man on the seat was a prisoner, why was he so reticent? |
37775 | If these remarkable episodes were true, could there be such a thing as fiction? |
37775 | If you should try to impress on mankind the facts that you have learned in this journey, what would be the result?" |
37775 | In reply to this my mental ejaculation, my guide said:"Can not you perceive that the darkness is becoming less intense?" |
37775 | In this case I unwittingly said:"Why do you say that our language will not permit of clearer conceptions than you give?" |
37775 | Indeed, could it have been a part of time if it were instantaneous?" |
37775 | Is it not rational to suppose it possible for this sequence to be reversed? |
37775 | Is it not true that in the direction in which you question my power, some men by cultivation often become expert beyond their fellows? |
37775 | Is it true that by mental cultivation a new sense can be evolved whereby darkness may become as light?" |
37775 | Is not man capable of following where animals lead? |
37775 | Is not man unfortunate in having to risk so much on so frail an organ? |
37775 | Is not that your predicament?" |
37775 | Is not the day of the allegorical"white elixir"nearly at hand? |
37775 | Is other argument necessary? |
37775 | Look at the mud with which I am covered, and consider the return trip which yet lies before me, and which must prove even more exhausting?" |
37775 | Lost in contemplation, I unconsciously asked the mental question:"Where are the shadows?" |
37775 | Many of these specimens are probably thousands of years old, and are still growing; why should they ever die? |
37775 | May it not be riven into fragments from such a convulsion?" |
37775 | May not the greatest scientist be the most apt skeptic?" |
37775 | May you not be in an exalted state of mind that hinders clear perception, and compels you to imagine and accept as fact that which does not exist? |
37775 | Mercury at ordinary temperature is a liquid; can your scientist tell why it is not a solid? |
37775 | Name the student in science who has reached this depth in earth, or has seen a man to tell him of these facts?" |
37775 | Need it have been a part of either second, or of time at all? |
37775 | Now that you have warned me of my doom, do you imagine that anything, even sudden death, can swerve me from my journey? |
37775 | Now what resemblance is there between the vagaries of a hysterical, weak- minded woman, and my case?" |
37775 | On and over the trackless waste of glass- like water we sped, until the dead silence became painfully oppressive, and I asked:"Whither are we bound?" |
37775 | One child has black hair, another brown, a third red; why? |
37775 | One species of turtle has a soft shell, another a hard shell; has your authority in natural history told you why this is so? |
37775 | Or, what assurance have you that he will not encounter you in the street, under circumstances that will provoke or, at the least, embarrass you?" |
37775 | Oscillating Through Space-- The Earth Shell Above Us, 333 L. My Weight Annihilated--"Tell me,"I cried in alarm,"is this a Living Tomb?" |
37775 | Regarding me attentively, he said:"What is it that impels a mortal towards this fruit?" |
37775 | Search your physiology for the answer and see if your learned authority can tell you why the life- current makes these distinctions? |
37775 | Shall the subtle ears of future scientists catch yet lighter echoes? |
37775 | Should I permit the slender youth to carry me away as a prisoner? |
37775 | Should productions of surface earth have a monopoly of nature''s methods, all the flavors, all the perfumes? |
37775 | Silver is sonorous, lead is not; why these intrinsic differences? |
37775 | Some nerve excitants known to you act slowly, others quickly; why not others still instantaneously? |
37775 | Such an answer evades the issue; why do they so readily exert this action? |
37775 | Suppose that a vicious life were ended, could it escape the inevitable critical point? |
37775 | Surely the pressure of a gas in confinement is the same in all directions, is it not?" |
37775 | That earth- bound science is science only with surface- earth men? |
37775 | That it is a contradiction in itself, for if a man is alone he is alone, and that settles it?" |
37775 | That it is unworthy the position you occupy in history as a thinker and philosopher? |
37775 | The guide seized me by the hand,"Hold, hold,"he cried;"where would you go, fickle mortal?" |
37775 | The past to me is a painful, melancholy recollection; the future is--"I shuddered, for who could foretell my future? |
37775 | Then he added:"Have you accepted that whatever seems to be is not, and that that which seems not to be, is? |
37775 | Then he added:"Is there any other subject you wish to argue?" |
37775 | Then he continued, seemingly not having noticed my personal allusion:"Have you ever seen your heart?" |
37775 | Then, in a smooth, captivating, entrancing manner, he continued:"Can you not see that food is not matter? |
37775 | There is no other object to push against,--but why do you continue to hold me so tightly?" |
37775 | Think you that earth substance really presents an obstacle to the passage of the sun''s energy? |
37775 | Try, if you believe I am mistaken, try to think of any subject outside of words?" |
37775 | U. L."But what has this phenomenon to do with the volcano?" |
37775 | U. L."Have you investigated all possible anæsthetics?" |
37775 | Under stress of his strong alchemic convictions, Thomas Dalton placed his head on the block by order of the virtuous(?) |
37775 | Was there a necessity for this journey, these mysterious movements, this physical exertion? |
37775 | What can be the cause of this phenomenon? |
37775 | What could explain the paradox? |
37775 | What evidence can any man produce to prove that his idea of life is not a madman''s dream?" |
37775 | What had I to do with seven, or seven with me? |
37775 | What is it that enables the nerve in the nose to perform its discriminative function? |
37775 | What is present in a grain of diamond that is not present in a grain of charcoal?" |
37775 | What is the nature of this mysterious halo that surrounds us?" |
37775 | What is your business?" |
37775 | What lies inside to give it life?'' |
37775 | What might it be?" |
37775 | What think you, I repeat, becomes of the torrent of light and heat and other forces that radiate from the sun, the flood that strikes the earth? |
37775 | What was I to do with seven? |
37775 | What will be the result of this eventful journey?" |
37775 | What would be the end of this marvelous journey? |
37775 | What, think you, becomes of the flood of light energy that unceasingly flows from the sun? |
37775 | What, to the mother, can replace the babe that has been lost?" |
37775 | When shall we reach our destination?" |
37775 | Where is it?" |
37775 | Who creates improved artillery, and explosives? |
37775 | Who evolves improved machinery? |
37775 | Who is he? |
37775 | Who would not feel elated at the prospect of an exploration, such as I foresaw might be pursued in my immediate future? |
37775 | Why am I forbidden? |
37775 | Why and how has this been accomplished? |
37775 | Why are the salts of aluminum astringent, the salts of magnesium cathartic, and the salts of arsenicum deadly poison? |
37775 | Why did he not answer my questions? |
37775 | Why did not some kind angel withhold my hand from the rash and wicked deed? |
37775 | Why do the cells of the liver secrete bile, and those of the mouth saliva? |
37775 | Why does any cell secrete anything? |
37775 | Why does the dog lap and the calf drink? |
37775 | Why does the nerve in the tongue respond to a sensation, and produce on the mind the sense of taste? |
37775 | Why does the newly- born babe cry for food before its intellect has a chance for worldly education? |
37775 | Why does the robin hop, and the snipe walk? |
37775 | Why does the vapor of sulphuric ether inflame, while the vapor of chloroform is not combustible, under ordinary conditions? |
37775 | Why is common salt white and charcoal black? |
37775 | Why should this part of the earth prove an exception to the general rule? |
37775 | Why will some substances absorb moisture from the air, and liquefy, while others become as dry as dust under like conditions? |
37775 | Will you never learn that the philosophy of your former life is not philosophy here? |
37775 | Would he speak again? |
37775 | Would not dissolution, so far as the separation of matter and spirit is concerned at its critical point be instantaneous?" |
37775 | Would not that life in its previous journey create its own sad eternity? |
37775 | Would you have me believe that such a being has an existence outside an abnormal thought- creation?" |
37775 | You are thankful that it was all an illusion as you deem it now; what would you think had only the heavenly part been spread before you?" |
37775 | You believe only what_ you_ can do?" |
37775 | You could not make them believe that hundreds of miles beneath, both their vessel and its crew had been reproduced in fac simile, could you?" |
37775 | You discredit Marco Polo? |
37775 | am I free now?" |
37775 | and are you brave enough to meet the trials you have invited?" |
37775 | and had I not deliberately broken that sacred vow, and scattered the hoarded sentences broadcast? |
37775 | and is not the same amount of the same material present in each, a grain of diamond and a grain of charcoal? |
37775 | go forth in my freedom? |
37775 | how did he enter without my notice, and why? |
37775 | no strength?" |
37775 | what is he? |
37775 | what is his business? |
37775 | why did my evil genius prompt me to write it? |
37775 | would it not be best to thrust him aside, if necessary, crush him to the earth? |
41071 | A Brother of the Shadow? |
41071 | A legacy? 41071 A loss of expected money,"he muttered,"and Lucy is ill.""Who is Lucy?" |
41071 | Ah, my young sir, men always call women so before marriage; but what do they call them afterwards? |
41071 | Alice, how can you live here? |
41071 | Am I a fool? 41071 Am I cruel? |
41071 | Am I dealing with a gentleman or a scoundrel? |
41071 | Am I? 41071 And as he is a servant of Christ as you are, what does it matter?" |
41071 | And does he know anything about clairvoyance? |
41071 | And how do you know we have met for the first time to- night? |
41071 | And if I am flirting? |
41071 | And if I refuse? |
41071 | And if I refuse? |
41071 | And if they renounce Self? |
41071 | And the inner teaching? |
41071 | And those who do not find it are lost? |
41071 | And what are we to live on? |
41071 | And what do you say? |
41071 | And what explanation did you give her? |
41071 | And what more do you want? |
41071 | And why not if they get them in the right way? |
41071 | And would you? |
41071 | And you trust me even though you have known me such a short time? 41071 And you understand my position?" |
41071 | And you? |
41071 | And you? |
41071 | And your father? |
41071 | Are any marriages made in heaven? |
41071 | Are they puppets? |
41071 | Are you against me also? 41071 Are you aware that you are speaking to your father?" |
41071 | Are you clairvoyant? |
41071 | Are you ill? |
41071 | Are you so sure? 41071 Are you sure that I make you afraid?" |
41071 | Are you then incomplete? |
41071 | Are you tired of all this, Alice? |
41071 | Are you very angry, Julian? |
41071 | At what price? |
41071 | Better? |
41071 | Brunhild or Brynhild-- what do you call that Norse goddess you said you so admired until you met me? |
41071 | But are there really such men? |
41071 | But can not you tell, Master? 41071 But can religion be proved logically?" |
41071 | But how can that golden heart help? |
41071 | But how do you know? |
41071 | But how was this found out? |
41071 | But if he has more power than you----? |
41071 | But if you would only advise me what to do? |
41071 | But is he guilty? |
41071 | But is it a crime? |
41071 | But the danger which threatens me? |
41071 | But the teaching you are giving me? |
41071 | But what am I to do? |
41071 | But what can the vicar do, Douglas? 41071 But what?" |
41071 | But when are you going to move in the matter? |
41071 | But why has n''t he come to help you? |
41071 | But why not? |
41071 | But why this night of all nights? |
41071 | But you believe in the doctrine of reincarnation? |
41071 | But your father----? |
41071 | Ca n''t you understand, Douglas? 41071 Ca n''t you understand?" |
41071 | Can I not help? |
41071 | Can he do this? |
41071 | Can not you understand? 41071 Can that be done?" |
41071 | Can_ you_ leave your body consciously? |
41071 | Did The Adversary strike you down? |
41071 | Did father send the carriage? |
41071 | Did you attempt to convert him? |
41071 | Did you come after us? |
41071 | Did you guess then? |
41071 | Did you kill Hardwick? |
41071 | Did you make an invisible third at my interview with Cane? |
41071 | Did you strike him down? |
41071 | Did you want me? |
41071 | Do epigrams require explanations? |
41071 | Do n''t I tell you that if I thought your feeling for me was really genuine I should not be so wicked as to risk your unhappiness? 41071 Do n''t you feel fire running through your veins when I touch you, Julian?" |
41071 | Do n''t you see what I mean, Enistor? 41071 Do the Chaldeans worship the Stars themselves?" |
41071 | Do what? |
41071 | Do you accuse me of killing the man? |
41071 | Do you call me a child? |
41071 | Do you indeed? 41071 Do you intend to give him that vitality?" |
41071 | Do you know who the other two people are? |
41071 | Do you like my father for his own sake or for mine? |
41071 | Do you live in the Temple of Mars? |
41071 | Do you mean to kill Hardwick? |
41071 | Do you mean to say that she does not know what she told Narvaez and her father? |
41071 | Do you not see the light that is brighter than the sun? |
41071 | Do you really regard yourself as Christ''s steward? |
41071 | Do you reckon knowledge by Time? |
41071 | Do you reckon knowledge by Time? |
41071 | Do you see Hardwick? |
41071 | Do you see any change in the ground? |
41071 | Do you see me? |
41071 | Do you think he will die to- night? |
41071 | Do you think it right to let Don Pablo give you such presents? |
41071 | Do you think that I have nothing to do but to waste my time in that way? 41071 Do you think that I shall surrender you to him?" |
41071 | Do you think that knowledge should make one happy? |
41071 | Do you think that my looks are due simply to a short season of pleasure in London? |
41071 | Do you want me? |
41071 | Do you wish him to die at all? |
41071 | Do? |
41071 | Does Douglas carry you away? |
41071 | Does any woman ever listen to reason? |
41071 | Does n''t Shelley say something like that in''Adonais''? |
41071 | Does n''t your heart beat nineteen to the dozen: have n''t you the feeling that this is heaven on earth? |
41071 | Does the trouble you predicted come from that quarter? |
41071 | Don Pablo is? |
41071 | Don Pablo? 41071 Elementals?" |
41071 | Every one knows that, do n''t they, doctor? |
41071 | Experienced? |
41071 | Feel anything? |
41071 | For what purpose? |
41071 | Has each Angel a temple? |
41071 | Has he not returned? |
41071 | Has it gone as far as that? |
41071 | Have you any brandy? |
41071 | Have you any proof? |
41071 | Have you come here to measure your strength against mine? |
41071 | Have you come to give yourself up? |
41071 | Have you indeed? |
41071 | He does not follow the Left- hand Path then? |
41071 | He is a friend of yours? |
41071 | He is a man then? |
41071 | He is not dead? |
41071 | He is----"Wo n''t you sit down and explain? 41071 Her best friend?" |
41071 | His murder of me in Chaldea? |
41071 | How are you going to manage? |
41071 | How can I be that when my sister has cheated me in this way? |
41071 | How can I explain? 41071 How can I when I do n''t know why we are enemies?" |
41071 | How can I when the fishing''s been bad and Job ca n''t earn enough to keep things going? 41071 How can that be when you were struck down in your moment of triumph?" |
41071 | How can we get time? |
41071 | How can you ask me to take up such a position when you know that I love you, Alice? |
41071 | How can you bear a fire on this hot day? |
41071 | How can you get the vitality? |
41071 | How can you talk so? 41071 How did he know that I was here?" |
41071 | How did you guess? |
41071 | How do you intend to act? |
41071 | How do you know that I can explain, doctor? |
41071 | How do you know that my father is aware of our engagement? |
41071 | How do you know that? |
41071 | How do you know? |
41071 | How does he know? |
41071 | How is it some people repel while others attract? |
41071 | How long were you in the library? |
41071 | How-- how-- did-- you-- come here? |
41071 | I am a fraud, am I? 41071 I do feel tremendously hungry,"admitted the patient;"and your father?" |
41071 | I do n''t look like a man who is able to enjoy a legacy, do I, Alice? |
41071 | I must if I must,he admitted grudgingly;"there is n''t another man, I suppose?" |
41071 | I see that you do n''t love him,said Douglas, his brow clearing;"but does Hardwick-- that is his name, is n''t it?--love you?" |
41071 | I thought that was spiritual strength? |
41071 | I thought you did not care for the money, father? |
41071 | I wonder what is behind all this amiable behaviour, Julian? |
41071 | I wonder what you mean? |
41071 | I wonder why? |
41071 | I? |
41071 | If I and others did not come to you where would your practice be? |
41071 | If he does n''t mean it, why does he do it? |
41071 | If so, why are n''t you plain with me? |
41071 | If that is the case why do n''t you thwart his schemes? |
41071 | Ill, sir? 41071 Impossible?" |
41071 | In the first place,said Montrose, asking a counter- question,"am I to be arrested for murdering Narvaez?" |
41071 | In what way? |
41071 | In what way? |
41071 | Into_ all_ religions? |
41071 | Is Dr. Eberstein religious then? |
41071 | Is Montrose the other man you spoke of at dinner last night? |
41071 | Is he good- looking? |
41071 | Is he ill? |
41071 | Is he mad to say so? |
41071 | Is he or Narvaez the liar? |
41071 | Is he very powerful? |
41071 | Is it foolish? |
41071 | Is it necessary for you to put that into words? |
41071 | Is it necessary to- night? |
41071 | Is n''t that a selfish way of looking at the matter? |
41071 | Is n''t that rather irrelevant? |
41071 | Is she in danger? |
41071 | Is that a hit at me? |
41071 | Is that all you have to say? |
41071 | Is that so strange? |
41071 | Is that the Squire? |
41071 | Is that the sole reason? |
41071 | Is there a Temple to the Earth- Angel? |
41071 | Job? 41071 Julian, how can you say such a thing?" |
41071 | Let you know who he is? |
41071 | Likewise in other lives? |
41071 | Mr. Montrose being the pear? |
41071 | Mr. Montrose,said the vicar, who looked more solemn than ever and was certainly more stiff,"are you wise to walk through the village just now?" |
41071 | Must I, father? 41071 My father?" |
41071 | My sin? |
41071 | Narvaez rules you, and will you bend to him rather than to the Holy One? |
41071 | Narvaez? 41071 Narvaez?" |
41071 | Need I explain? |
41071 | Not even to save his own neck? |
41071 | Now how can I give you an answer, when you have not the capability of grasping the answer, Julian? 41071 Oh hang him, who is he?" |
41071 | Oh, Alice,in a tone of deep reproach,"do you love him and not me?" |
41071 | Oh, Amy, what about Romeo and Juliet? |
41071 | Oh, Rose, why have you not been up to see me? |
41071 | Oh, doctor, how are you? 41071 Oh, my dear,"said Mrs. Barrast in despair,"what is the use of that? |
41071 | Oh, my dog is showing his teeth, is he? 41071 Oh, what a doubtful compliment,"said Alice gaily;"am I then, or rather was I, an ugly duckling?" |
41071 | Perhaps Job Trevel? |
41071 | Pooh, what has love to do with marriage? 41071 Poor soul, why blaspheme? |
41071 | Rather whimsical, do n''t you think? |
41071 | Say? 41071 Selfish? |
41071 | Shall I permit a fool to triumph over me? 41071 Shall we see my father now?" |
41071 | Should I take it, Miss Alice? |
41071 | Still he may want to escape? |
41071 | Stronger than I am? 41071 Tell me, dear, what does he say to you?" |
41071 | That is the name of Mrs. Barrast''s brother, is it not? |
41071 | The Adversary then is not absolutely certain of success? |
41071 | The enemy''s country? |
41071 | The law of love? |
41071 | The name of the Star- Angel? |
41071 | The question is,''Would Don Pablo marry you?'' 41071 The shadow-- the man?" |
41071 | The whole fortune of your sister? |
41071 | The will----? |
41071 | Then I take it that Eberstein has already declared war by bringing Montrose and Alice together? |
41071 | Then Montrose is not the guilty man? |
41071 | Then Mr. Enistor truly was my enemy? |
41071 | Then he has proposed? |
41071 | Then he has recovered? |
41071 | Then who can have murdered Narvaez? |
41071 | Then why ask him? |
41071 | Then why could we not come together? |
41071 | Then why does your father wish you to marry him? |
41071 | Then why not take up the new life at the point where the old one left off? |
41071 | Then you do n''t want me to ask him to dinner? |
41071 | There is a danger then? |
41071 | There is great room for improvement, is n''t there? |
41071 | There never was such a woman as you are,cried Douglas brokenly,"but oh, my darling heart, how can you love me when I lurk here so shamefully?" |
41071 | They then bring death with them? |
41071 | This is indeed a surprise,smirked the elderly lover, bowing;"are you on your way to see me?" |
41071 | To tempt you? 41071 Was your first impression of him pleasant?" |
41071 | We shall see you again, I hope? |
41071 | Well then,he cried impetuously,"my soul and your soul?" |
41071 | Well then-- all the same? |
41071 | Well, Alice, how are you? |
41071 | Well, Master, what is to be done? 41071 Well, do n''t you think his recovery is wonderful?" |
41071 | Well, sir,said Enistor shortly,"what have you to say for yourself?" |
41071 | Well? 41071 Well? |
41071 | Well? |
41071 | Well? |
41071 | Well? |
41071 | What about Job Trevel? |
41071 | What about her love for this Montrose? 41071 What about her?" |
41071 | What about ourselves? 41071 What about the chronology of the Bible? |
41071 | What are you doing? |
41071 | What are you then? |
41071 | What can I say but that I trust you? 41071 What can they do?" |
41071 | What chance? |
41071 | What did he mention to father? |
41071 | What did she tell you? |
41071 | What do you call proper behaviour on his part? |
41071 | What do you know about him? |
41071 | What do you know of this? |
41071 | What do you mean by temporary? |
41071 | What do you mean by that? |
41071 | What do you mean, Miss Enistor? |
41071 | What do you mean, father? |
41071 | What do you mean? |
41071 | What do you mean? |
41071 | What do you see? 41071 What do you see?" |
41071 | What does a child such as you are know about such things? 41071 What does he say?" |
41071 | What does his consent matter when you have hooked a rich man? |
41071 | What does it all mean? |
41071 | What does it matter what other people think? |
41071 | What does that matter? |
41071 | What else have you done? |
41071 | What game? |
41071 | What has come to you? |
41071 | What has she got to do with it, or with me, or with anything? |
41071 | What have you seen in me to lead you to make so infamous a proposition? |
41071 | What if it does? |
41071 | What is a true marriage, you silly girl? |
41071 | What is it: oh, what is it? |
41071 | What is it? |
41071 | What is that secret? |
41071 | What is that? |
41071 | What is the cause of the quarrel? |
41071 | What is the knowledge? |
41071 | What is the use of calling names? 41071 What is the use of hiding one''s light under a bushel?" |
41071 | What is the worship? |
41071 | What is your miracle? |
41071 | What need? |
41071 | What of that? 41071 What of that? |
41071 | What other self is there? |
41071 | What other word can I use to you when we have only known each other for a single week? |
41071 | What will he do? |
41071 | What will you do? |
41071 | What''s he been saying? |
41071 | What''s the row? 41071 What''s the-- the matter?" |
41071 | What, sir, shall the clay say to the potter what it wants to be? |
41071 | What, you know----? |
41071 | What? |
41071 | When did Mrs. Boyce discover the body? |
41071 | When will it be gratified? 41071 Where have you been these last few hours?" |
41071 | Where is Hardwick''s soul? |
41071 | Where is the boasted power of Christ? |
41071 | Where is the life that has been given? |
41071 | Where is the light? |
41071 | Who are they? |
41071 | Who is he? |
41071 | Who is she? |
41071 | Who is the Father? |
41071 | Who is the Son of Perdition? |
41071 | Who is the man? |
41071 | Who killed him? |
41071 | Who said I was going to get into trouble? 41071 Who saved me?" |
41071 | Who told you that? |
41071 | Who will win, you or Narvaez? |
41071 | Who-- who-- who are you? |
41071 | Whom did you come with? |
41071 | Whom or What do I worship then? |
41071 | Whose hatred? |
41071 | Why are you in the dark? 41071 Why did n''t you let me know?" |
41071 | Why did n''t you let me twist his neck? |
41071 | Why did you save my life? |
41071 | Why do n''t you get a new one? |
41071 | Why do n''t you smash Narvaez? |
41071 | Why do they come together? |
41071 | Why do you use my Christian name? |
41071 | Why has Señor Narvaez done this? |
41071 | Why not say with Douglas? |
41071 | Why not sell all we have and give it to the poor? |
41071 | Why not take his advice? |
41071 | Why not, Mr. Montrose? 41071 Why not, if the knowledge be rightly applied?" |
41071 | Why not, when such personality is myself? |
41071 | Why not? 41071 Why not? |
41071 | Why not? 41071 Why not? |
41071 | Why not? |
41071 | Why not? |
41071 | Why not? |
41071 | Why should I be? |
41071 | Why should I be? |
41071 | Why should I not? |
41071 | Why should it be? |
41071 | Why should it not be? |
41071 | Why should she require discipline rather than a millionaire? |
41071 | Why should sorrow come? |
41071 | Why should they try to rise? |
41071 | Why should you obey him? |
41071 | Why should you want protection, Douglas? |
41071 | Why to- morrow? |
41071 | Why trouble about other people? |
41071 | Why was Señor Narvaez lying on the floor? |
41071 | Why will not the parsons take this teaching? |
41071 | Why, what can I do? |
41071 | Why? 41071 Why?" |
41071 | Why? |
41071 | Why? |
41071 | Why? |
41071 | Why? |
41071 | Why? |
41071 | Will it arise? |
41071 | Will it ever come to light? |
41071 | Will there be no more trouble? |
41071 | Will they harm Alice? |
41071 | Would you do something for nothing yourself, Don Pablo? |
41071 | Would you have married him had he been poor? |
41071 | Would you have me sneak away like a cur? |
41071 | Would you have obeyed him if he had told you to give my father the money? |
41071 | Wrongly used to cure the sick? 41071 You appear to know a lot about these things, Montrose?" |
41071 | You are a priestess in the Temple of Mars? |
41071 | You are sure Alice has n''t suffered? |
41071 | You call him Julian-- Mrs. Barrast''s brother? |
41071 | You can feel my touch, can you not? |
41071 | You dare to set your will against my will? |
41071 | You do n''t pity me? |
41071 | You do n''t regret the loss? |
41071 | You feel it also? |
41071 | You fool, have I no means of searching other than in the physical? |
41071 | You inherit the fortune of my sister? |
41071 | You knew me as what? |
41071 | You know what I am thinking about? |
41071 | You know what took place? |
41071 | You mean her innocence? |
41071 | You mean to have me arrested on a charge of murder? |
41071 | You refused him? 41071 You spoke civilly to me when you thought I had lost my power, did n''t you?" |
41071 | You threaten, do you? |
41071 | You understand what? |
41071 | You will come to Cornwall? |
41071 | You will help me? |
41071 | You wish to speak to me about Douglas, father? |
41071 | Young and handsome and wealthy? |
41071 | Your father is in danger of death, you say? |
41071 | Your father? |
41071 | Your own city? 41071 A nice bribe for you to turn into a silly saint, is n''t it, my friend? 41071 Across his mind flashed insistently the question of Ahab,Hast thou found me, O mine enemy?" |
41071 | Alice laid a trembling hand on his arm;"have you felt that also?" |
41071 | Alice, clinging to Montrose, murmured incoherently:"Do you see Him: do you see Him? |
41071 | Alice, will you give me your arm to my lodgings? |
41071 | Alice, will you----?" |
41071 | All my life I have been lonely: all my life I have wanted to meet you, to adore you, to----""How could you when you did n''t know that I existed?" |
41071 | Although I do not know if you believe in reincarnation?" |
41071 | Am I a genius?" |
41071 | Am I blind?" |
41071 | Am I right?" |
41071 | And if he did not murder Narvaez, who did? |
41071 | And then?" |
41071 | And what had she to do with either of the two men? |
41071 | And who has done service? |
41071 | And why, may I ask?" |
41071 | And why? |
41071 | And why?" |
41071 | Are we free?" |
41071 | Are you about to become a pupil of The Adversary as I suggested when you taunted me in the cottage?" |
41071 | Are you bent upon following the feeble Christianity of Eberstein?" |
41071 | Are you going mad?" |
41071 | Are you not aware that God is the One manifesting Himself in us, the Many? |
41071 | Barrast?" |
41071 | Barrast?" |
41071 | But Julian is at least human, so----""Is n''t Don Pablo human?" |
41071 | But could a peaceful life be built up upon a crime? |
41071 | But do you think it was quite fair of her to leave the money away from her own family?" |
41071 | But do you think it was right that she should leave it away from her relations?" |
41071 | But he''s very nice, is n''t he, Alice? |
41071 | But how had Alice come so swiftly from the cave? |
41071 | But is Señor Narvaez the man to train it?" |
41071 | But of course, dear, if you are jealous----""I-- jealous?" |
41071 | But suppose he does n''t approve?" |
41071 | But what does it matter? |
41071 | But why did n''t you lat her as is to be his wife alone?" |
41071 | But why should you not when it is said,''Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God''?" |
41071 | Ca n''t you see now how wise I was to refuse you?" |
41071 | Can nothing be done?" |
41071 | Can you not trust me?" |
41071 | Children,"Montrose spoke half to himself and half to his companion,"what else? |
41071 | DAWN 386 CHAPTER I LOVE IN IDLENESS"How can any one hope to transfer that to canvas?" |
41071 | Did I not scheme to place this young fool in your power, and did I not do so? |
41071 | Did not one of your poets say:''We mortal millions live alone''? |
41071 | Did you feel anything just now?" |
41071 | Do I not deserve gratitude in return?" |
41071 | Do you believe it, Alice?" |
41071 | Do you hear? |
41071 | Do you hear? |
41071 | Do you hear?" |
41071 | Do you think that during the past three weeks I have left you and that nice boy together without guessing the truth ages and ages ago? |
41071 | Do you think that what I suffered from the darkness last night has exhausted me?" |
41071 | Do you understand now why I insulted Alice so that Montrose might publicly quarrel with me?" |
41071 | Do you understand?" |
41071 | Do you want to see Montrose murder me?" |
41071 | Does he practise love and unselfishness and all the rest of the necessary requirements?" |
41071 | Does not the Great Master tell us to love our enemies?" |
41071 | Eh? |
41071 | Eh?" |
41071 | Enistor?" |
41071 | Enistor?" |
41071 | Enistor?" |
41071 | Good Lord, how can any man be angry with another man, when he knows that his enemy is but a child? |
41071 | Hardwick?" |
41071 | Has Douglas proposed?" |
41071 | Has he said anything?" |
41071 | Has my father asked you down to Tremore?" |
41071 | Have I not rendered you a great service? |
41071 | Have you met the man who wanted to marry Alice?" |
41071 | He believes in reincarnation, does n''t he?" |
41071 | He hinted the other day that he----""Loved you? |
41071 | How can I be?" |
41071 | How can we do that?" |
41071 | How could he do so without a rope and lacking assistance? |
41071 | How dare you insult my daughter yesterday?" |
41071 | How did you do it?" |
41071 | How did you do it?" |
41071 | How did you see these fairies?" |
41071 | How do you do? |
41071 | How do you feel, Alice?" |
41071 | How do you like that, my dear friend?" |
41071 | How many?" |
41071 | How much money have you lost?" |
41071 | How often am I to tell you that it is impossible to hurry things? |
41071 | I advised you to get back your aunt''s money by marriage, did n''t I?" |
41071 | I do n''t know exactly how to put it, but in some way I saw----""Saw what?" |
41071 | I like pretty things, and if an old gentleman gives them to me, where''s the harm, I should like to know?" |
41071 | I? |
41071 | I?" |
41071 | If you loved me, would you have chatted about this, that and the other thing so lightly after I had rejected you?" |
41071 | If you turn to his foolish ways will he save your life?" |
41071 | In the first place, where did you meet my father?" |
41071 | Is age to protect him from being punished? |
41071 | Is he as often at Tremore as ever?" |
41071 | Is it in the library, father?" |
41071 | Is it then any wonder that opposing wills clash, when all are so ignorant? |
41071 | Is that it?" |
41071 | Is your head aching?" |
41071 | It is n''t Lent or any of their confounded Church feasts, is it?" |
41071 | It_ is_ Mr. Montrose, is n''t it? |
41071 | Love on one hand, wealth on the other: which will she choose, do you think? |
41071 | May I see Miss Enistor to comfort her and offer up a prayer in her present sorrow?" |
41071 | Montrose?" |
41071 | Montrose?" |
41071 | Montrose?" |
41071 | Montrose?" |
41071 | Montrose?" |
41071 | Montrose?" |
41071 | Montrose?" |
41071 | My dear, where did you learn such awful nonsense?" |
41071 | My sister has sold me in favour of this-- what do you say his name is?" |
41071 | Oh, my dear,"he went on entreatingly,"is there so much love in the world that you and I can afford to throw what we possess away? |
41071 | Oh, what''s to be done?" |
41071 | Only this can give you power, and will you consent to be a slave in the petty kingdom of this man, which will be destroyed when his measure is full?" |
41071 | Shall I see you again?" |
41071 | Shall I then not come when your life depends upon my coming?" |
41071 | Shall you ask Señor Narvaez?" |
41071 | So the young man is coming to Tremore to be put through his paces?" |
41071 | So you are the spider?" |
41071 | That is so satisfactory, is n''t it?" |
41071 | The question is, will you give me the money to save your neck?" |
41071 | Then it was this Montrose beast who made her change her mind?" |
41071 | Then you admit that I am right?" |
41071 | Then you can give your consent to the marriage----""What about your desire to marry Alice?" |
41071 | Then you see, dear-- oh, Dr. Eberstein, how are you? |
41071 | Then your knowledge is as wide as that of-- shall we say Narvaez?" |
41071 | Then----""Well, what then?" |
41071 | There,"he kissed her hand twice,"is it better, darling?" |
41071 | They''re lots cleaner than engineers, are n''t they? |
41071 | To tempt you, sir?" |
41071 | Was Montrose his victim, or his accomplice? |
41071 | Was he an honest man, or a schemer? |
41071 | Was not the warning given last night in this very room enough to shake your faith in his powers?" |
41071 | Was this another miracle in this life of miracles? |
41071 | We are brother and sister, are we not?" |
41071 | We are friends, are we not?" |
41071 | We quite understand one another, do n''t we?" |
41071 | Well, Don Pablo has been paying great attention to Rose; giving her presents and----""Does she accept his attentions?" |
41071 | Well? |
41071 | Well? |
41071 | Well?" |
41071 | Well?" |
41071 | What about your interview with this lawyer? |
41071 | What can we do with the rest of the evening?" |
41071 | What devil made her change her intentions?" |
41071 | What do you do? |
41071 | What do you know of temptation, or of life at all? |
41071 | What do you mean?" |
41071 | What do you mean?" |
41071 | What do you say to that?" |
41071 | What do you think yourself?" |
41071 | What does her ruin or his matter to you? |
41071 | What does this miserable money matter?" |
41071 | What have you got here?" |
41071 | What have you to say?" |
41071 | What is the matter?" |
41071 | What is the result, Alice?" |
41071 | What is the use of men if they do n''t give us things?" |
41071 | What is there she could tell?" |
41071 | What kind of a blow?" |
41071 | What now?" |
41071 | What of your Master who saved the lives of those past human aid?" |
41071 | What right has he to give her presents and talk about taking her to London? |
41071 | What says the Blessed Son of the Most High God?" |
41071 | What then?" |
41071 | What''s that about the Squire?" |
41071 | What''s the row?" |
41071 | When do you return?" |
41071 | When the people asked:''Who is this Son of Man?'' |
41071 | Where did that civilisation come from?" |
41071 | Where is she?" |
41071 | Where is your baggage?" |
41071 | Who are you, and who are those you mingle with? |
41071 | Who can afford to throw a stone at any one?" |
41071 | Who can protect you against me? |
41071 | Who is he?" |
41071 | Why am I cruel?" |
41071 | Why ca n''t you rely on your own strength? |
41071 | Why did you meddle?" |
41071 | Why do you blame me for Alice going to London?" |
41071 | Why do you seek to limit your powers, to circumscribe your knowledge?" |
41071 | Why fence, as if we now meet for the first time? |
41071 | Why not explain more fully?" |
41071 | Why not hide until we can find out the truth?" |
41071 | Why not?" |
41071 | Why should I? |
41071 | Why should an old man of eighty run after a girl of nineteen?" |
41071 | Why should he save one who designed his disgrace; who desired his death? |
41071 | Why should n''t I mean what I say?" |
41071 | Why should n''t my father approve, now that he evidently has given up his idea of my marrying Don Pablo? |
41071 | Why should n''t reincarnation be a great truth?" |
41071 | Why should you help others? |
41071 | Why the deuce could n''t he stay in the next world after taking the trouble to go there? |
41071 | Why?" |
41071 | Will you?" |
41071 | Wo n''t that do harm?" |
41071 | You believe in our having lived before also? |
41071 | You keep certain things from me, so if you are not entirely frank, how can you expect me to aid you?" |
41071 | You know how dull the people are?" |
41071 | You know what work you are appointed to do?" |
41071 | You love me, Alice?" |
41071 | You talk about my having insulted your daughter, Enistor: what about the insult of a married man coming to woo the girl in so shameless a fashion?" |
41071 | You were surprised when your father told you?" |
41071 | Your errand?" |
41071 | answered Alice, very much puzzled by this unusual behaviour;"but why do you ask Mr. and Mrs. Sparrow to dinner? |
41071 | capture my own city?" |
41071 | cried Douglas generously,"can I not see him?" |
41071 | do you know me?" |
41071 | my will has been shattered? |
41071 | said Alice ironically,"does my father call me that?" |
41071 | said Montrose indignantly,"how can you talk so?" |
41071 | she whispered,"that sense of doom and dread?" |
