10222	''Am I not,''he exclaimed, in a loud voice,''Masasoyt, the great king?
10222	''And have we not such an offering here?''
10222	''And will the Sachem give him into my charge until the morning dawns?''
10222	''And you would read it to me, my brother?
10222	''Are you angry with your red brother?''
10222	''But is Uncas there?''
10222	''But where is Henrich?--where is my boy? �''He also is safe, Helen.
10222	''Child, are you talking again of Henrich leaving us?
10222	''Could I hear him speak?''
10222	''Did he not follow with you?
10222	''Do not you worship the Great Mahneto-- the Mighty Spirit from whom every good gift comes?''
10222	''Do you pray to the Great Spirit?''
10222	''Does your Mahneto speak to you?''
10222	''Has accident or violence quenched his young spirit?''
10222	''Have we not here a victim, sent by Mahneto himself, at the very moment when Terah''s life seems hanging on a breath?
10222	''Is it thus that you are taught in that book which the Great Spirit has dictated?
10222	''Is it thus you have learned of Brewster?''
10222	''Is my brother there?
10222	''Is my son dead, then?''
10222	''Must I know that you are in the battle- field; and wounded perhaps, and wanting my aid, and I far away?
10222	''Rodolph, my old fellow, is it you?''
10222	''Tell me,''cried the distracted father again,''what dire calamity has befallen my boy?''
10222	''Then if I worship your_ Keechee- Mahneto_[*] eagerly asked Jyanough, will he give back to me my brother Uncas?
10222	''Then my ears did not deceive me?''
10222	''What is that distant cloud, Henrich?''
10222	''What was that cry of joy, Oriana?''
10222	''Where are you off to so early? � he inquired of Henrich; and why is Coubitant not leading our warriors on their way?''
10222	''Where are you off to so early? � he inquired of Henrich; and why is Coubitant not leading our warriors on their way?''
10222	''Where is that fearful form, and those eyes of unearthly fire that glared on me just now?
10222	''Why did he go, when I knew that danger was near?''
10222	''Why do you talk of dying, Mailah?''
10222	Am I not lord of all the people of the Lowsons; and of such and such places?
10222	And bounded o''er the plain?
10222	And did those manly limbs tremble as he clasped his hands over his face, and sank on the rustic seat beneath the tulip- tree?
10222	And is not my father his father also?
10222	And must he dwell with savages, and lead a savage life?
10222	And were they wrong in thus looking upon it as an answer to their prayers, from a prayer- hearing God?
10222	And where is refuge?
10222	And where was Henrich?
10222	And why does she now behold Ludovico running wildly, and alone, down the path, with terror depicted in his countenance?
10222	Bat where were all her fears and apprehensions?
10222	Bright jewels of the mine?
10222	But I owe all the happiness of my life to that cruel deed-- and can I regret it?
10222	But can you bear to feel the agitation of hope?
10222	But her own happy and grateful feelings were painfully interrupted by her friend''s exclamation of agony--''Where is my Lincoya?''
10222	But how have you learned anything of Indian sports, or of the Indian tongue?''
10222	But was it so?
10222	But what was that distant cry that sounded from the wood in the direction in which her brothers had gone?
10222	But where is he whose smile once fell on thee as sunshine-- thy father, Lincoya?
10222	But where was Edith?
10222	But where was Lincoya?
10222	But whither should he direct his steps?
10222	But why did that bound of pleasure change instantaneously into a convulsion of agony?
10222	Can you discern that rising smoke, and tell us its cause?''
10222	Could he stand and see the noble Briton thus fall by a secret and unresisted attack?
10222	Could his parents, then-- could even his broken- hearted sister-- bear to disturb his angelic calmness by any display of their own grief?
10222	Could it ascend unheeded?
10222	Did he see treachery in that eye of fire?
10222	Did she again fancy?
10222	Did ye not know-- or, knowing, did not heed-- Those solemn words of His, when death was nigh, And He bequeathed a_ legacy of"peace"_ To His disciples?
10222	Fire is behind them: fire is, around them: Black is the sky?
10222	Has he not also said that he will never leave or forsake you and his boy?
10222	Have you perished in the flames, with none to help you?''
10222	Henrich was gratefully thanking her; and as the Sachem entered, he heard him exclaim in mournful accents-- � But why do you thus so kindly treat me?
10222	Her husband lived; and he was suffering hardship-- and could she remain separated from him, now that her own strength had been restored?
10222	His request was readily granted by Chingook; for of what value was a squaw in the eyes of these Indian braves?
10222	How can I think that I may, perhaps, never see all these again, and not be sad?''
10222	How could it be otherwise?
10222	In amazement and indignation at this rude action, Roger now caught his arm, and in the Indian tongue, inquired hastily--''Who are you?
10222	Is he a friend of yours?''
10222	Is he not Sachem of my warriors, and do they not look to him as their leader and their father?
10222	Is it not so? �''I would be Chief myself,''replied the savage, in a deep, undaunted voice.
10222	Is it some one who will save you from the power of the evil spirit Hobbamock-- the enemy of the red men?''
10222	Look on me, my Henrich, and say, do you not recognise the English soldier whom your generous interference preserved from a dreadful death?''
10222	None can Save but Thou?''
10222	Now, who shall prevent my being Sachem of the tribe, and leading my warriors to the destruction of the detested white invaders of our land?
10222	Shall we not meet more of those dreadful savages who have taken away my brother?
10222	Should I have pity on his son?''
10222	Should he behold his friends, and his teacher, no more?
10222	The wealth of seas, the spoils of war?
10222	Then, fixing his penetrating eyes on Henrich again, he hastily inquired:''And can you use the fire- breathing weapons of your countrymen?
10222	These natives had recognized their friend Williams, and now shouted out, in broken English, the welcome words, � What cheer?''
10222	Thy step was swift and graceful as the roe upon the mountains-- why didst thou leave me?
10222	To follow his companions that night was hopeless, for how could he traverse that red- hot plain?
10222	Was he then taken for ever from his parents, and his brother, and sister?
10222	Was he true to me and mine until you returned to put evil thoughts into his heart?
10222	Was it a tear that glittered in that warlike stranger''s eye, as a ray from the western sun fell on his face through the thick overhanging foliage?
10222	Was it by your arts that Salon''s soul was turned away from his lawful Chief, and filled with thoughts of murder?
10222	What can he desire more than to be a Nausett warrior?''
10222	What could Edith do?
10222	What then could Helen do?
10222	Whence could they arise?
10222	Where did they fall?
10222	Where is that little being?
10222	Where was Rodolph now?
10222	Where was that true- hearted woman while her husband was thus struggling with difficulties and privations?
10222	Where was the brave young stranger?
10222	Where was the youth whose mother mourned him as dead?
10222	Which was the braver man of the two?
10222	Whither, O, whither?
10222	Who could deliver you from the evil intentions of these cruel men?
10222	Who in Boston would stand up to defend your cause?
10222	Why did he now utter a low uneasy moan, as if he dreamt of danger?
10222	Why do you say you will leave your child, and go to the land of spirits?''
10222	Why does he yet tarry so long?
10222	Why, then, do you make your heart sad?
10222	Why, then, had he come to the aid of an enemy?
10222	Why, then, should you spurn from you the means of safety that have been so mercifully afforded, and tempt Providence to leave you to your fate''?
10222	Will the pale- face be the friend of him who has now no friend; for four moons are guile and Uncas does not answer to my call?''
10222	Will your Mahneto forgive him, Henrich?
10222	Would you drive me to distraction, by thus throwing yourself into the power of your bitter and relentless enemies?
10222	Would you leave me, my brother?''
10222	You never feared to go with me before; and why should you fear this evening?
10222	[ Footnote: Cape Cod]''Must I leave you, Henrich?''
10222	[*] But what do you mean by a Savior?
10222	and can you teach me to make them?
10222	and did her tearful eyes now convert the bushes into the figures of two dark Indians, in the costume of the dreaded Nausetts?
10222	and what can cause this freedom?''
10222	and why did the noble creature fall by his master''s side and look so earnestly up into his face?
10222	he exclaimed in the Nausett tongue, � is it, indeed, you whom I have thus slain unknowingly?
10222	or fail to bring down, in His own good time, an answer of peace?
10222	or had pride and jealousy already crept in there, which you have only fostered?''
10222	said Oriana, in reply to this unconscious utterance of his feelings;''would you leave me again alone, to mourn the brother I have lost?''
10222	thy voice was to me as a sweet song, or as the summer breeze among the tall cypress trees-- why didst thou leave me?
10222	when shall I hear thy step, and see thy bright glancing eye?
10222	where is safety now?
10222	why did he leave me?''
10222	why was this?
10222	will Mahneto let him thus avoid my vengeance?''
10222	� What men were they?
10222	� Where is he?''
10222	� Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?
62684	A gypsy, eh? 62684 Again, my friends, what has happened?
62684	Also why did he not tell us that he had done so? 62684 An old man say you?"
62684	And she scorned the offering when it was brought to her?
62684	And thou performed the service?
62684	And why do you not know?
62684	Are the bark- eaters fish that they remain in the water? 62684 Are they Française?"
62684	Art thou Chebacno or Wabensickewa?
62684	Art thou certain that one among them is so called?
62684	But if not a gypsy, to what race can he lay claim, with that tinge of color and with hair of such raven blackness?
62684	But who is his father?
62684	By what right does he make such a claim?
62684	Chain?
62684	Comes he from the west, and is he the Wild- Cat of the Oneidas?
62684	Did not that one also claim to be a son of Canonicus?
62684	Did you, then, know me also?
62684	Does my brother think so meanly of me as to believe that I would let him face a danger alone while I remained in safety?
62684	Dost remember the tale told us in London by my cousin Edward concerning an arrival from the New World in whom he had taken an interest?
62684	Dost thou not remember, Massasoit, the time when she bade thee fetch water?
62684	For twenty pund did you think to get him, me lud? 62684 Good my masters,"he cried,"what seek you?"
62684	Has he seen a vision of the spirit land to which all of us will go before the setting of another sun?
62684	Have not the Lenni Lenape learned that Longfeather has gone the great journey?
62684	Have they thunder- sticks?
62684	Have you seen the belt that he bears?
62684	How came he inside our walls?
62684	How can that be?
62684	How many are there?
62684	How may such a thing be?
62684	How may that be, when he looks like other men? 62684 How, then, Kaweras, will this plan of mine succeed, and shall we thus rid ourselves of the wolves whose howling has so long troubled our ears?"
62684	How?
62684	Hurons?
62684	If one should come----?
62684	Is he alone?
62684	Is he loved and respected as was Longfeather?
62684	Is it certain that they shot after us with arrows?
62684	Is it not what my young brother would have done?
62684	Is it safe to trust these white men?
62684	It is certain that he is handsome,whispered Otshata;"but is not his condition dreadful?
62684	May a man have two fathers?
62684	Mayhap those be the very things I also vould do by the young heathen; who knows?
62684	My dear,said Sir Amory,"will you favor us by glancing at yonder gypsy and telling if ever you have set eyes on him before?"
62684	My sister, why does Aeana hate me?
62684	Now, my friends, what has happened? 62684 Remembering that, art thou still at a loss to know why she now refuses to meet thee?"
62684	Saw you trace of other gypsies at or near that place?
62684	See you not that he is desperate, and that if you try to bind him there will be bloodshed? 62684 Shall we not turn back at once,"asked Nahma,"and give to Sacandaga a warning of the true state of affairs?"
62684	Then how may one know a Huron?
62684	Think you the creature is dumb?
62684	Thou, then, art authorized to fill his place?
62684	Vat vould you have done mit him yourself had your purse been as full as your stomach?
62684	Were you on land or on the water?
62684	What are they like, these tongues? 62684 What are you going to do with him?"
62684	What do they call their tribe?
62684	What do you intend to do with him?
62684	What hast thou to say in thy own behalf, scoundrel?
62684	What have we here?
62684	What is it? 62684 What is the material of the prisoner''s dress?"
62684	What is the sum?
62684	What know you of these wide waters? 62684 What mean you by an Oki?"
62684	What pleases my brother?
62684	What things?
62684	What will you now do with him?
62684	When did he die, and how? 62684 Where did it happen?"
62684	Where is Grinning Beaver, thy companion? 62684 Where is he?
62684	Which one, sir?
62684	Whither would you go, and what should we do without our hunter? 62684 Who are your friends?"
62684	Who calls?
62684	Who is it?
62684	Who killed him?
62684	Who, then, wears the Belt of Seven Totems?
62684	Who, then----?
62684	Why did you kill him?
62684	Why have you remained away from me these many hours?
62684	Why should Longfeather have intrusted the Belt of Seven Totems to one so young and inexperienced as Nahma instead of to us?
62684	Why, then, dost thou not wear the Peacemaker''s badge of authority, the great Belt of Seven Totems?
62684	Why, then, was he allowed to assume authority?
62684	Will you sell him to me?
62684	Wo n''t eat, eh?
62684	Yes, I reckon he''ll sweat fine,replied the other, with a grin;"but did iver thou see bear chained afore?"
62684	A poacher, caught red- handed, and a dog- killer, is he?"
62684	Also why had they in the first place attempted to sail to the southward, if his country was the place they were seeking?
62684	Are they indeed as terrible as represented?"
62684	Are they the Saganaga of the south, the Oneidas of the west, or wast thou born among the fish- eaters who dwell in the country of sunrising?
62684	Are you ready?
62684	But tell me quickly how knew you we were pursued by Hurons?
62684	But think you, Squanto, that they have any furs left?"
62684	But what of that?
62684	But, Amory, what is he doing here?
62684	Can you persuade him?"
62684	Can you remember the name?"
62684	Canst thou not do this, and by hard thinking recall some one thing?
62684	Did he do this?
62684	Did he utter the war- cry of the Iroquois that came to us as we were entering our canoes for a night of travel?"
62684	Do you not remember?
62684	Do you think because the governor chooses to absent himself for a while that no one is left here to maintain his authority?
62684	Doth it resemble ours so that one may comprehend their words?"
62684	First I would know who exercises authority in place of the great Wampanoag?
62684	For a moment the other hesitated, then his face lighted joyously as he grasped the proffered hand in both of his, crying,--"Massasoit?
62684	Furthermore, she regarded him with a proprietary interest, for had she not discovered him and rescued him from almost certain destruction?
62684	Gazing steadfastly at Miantinomo, he said, sternly,--"Why dost thou come here?
62684	Hast thou not caught some word that we may hear?"
62684	Have you been to them?"
62684	Having found a forest, might he not also hope to discover people of his own kind?
62684	He felt that he could afford to abide his time, for was he not almost within reach of his own people?
62684	He would at least die in possession of the freedom for which he had longed, and, after all, what had he to live for?
62684	How say you, Massasoit?
62684	How was he called?
62684	I will take it to my own people, and when it shall lead them in battle who will be able to stand before them?
62684	If there were forests in this strange land and bears, why should there not also be Indians?
62684	If they call themselves men, why do they not come on shore and accept the welcome awaiting them?"
62684	Is it a bargain?"
62684	Is it not so?"
62684	Is it well?"
62684	Is it well?"
62684	Is that all?
62684	It is incredible.--My young friend, who taught you the tongues of the Old World?
62684	Knew you not that his whiteness is caused by the washing of the waters in which he lives?"
62684	Left he a son to rule in his stead?"
62684	Now, what say you?
62684	See you not how he shines with wetness?"
62684	See you not that the river is flowing backward and that its waters are rising?
