17389--"Where do you live?"
17389A few weeks?
17389Ah--"What was the matter?
17389Alas, where had been his will that he had so soon forgotten his vow?
17389And what if he could get as far as Baltimore, would he care to go there?
17389And what would her life be without him, to whom had been offered up all her beauty and the stored sweets of her nature?
17389And why should he not be happy?
17389Are these the happy trio who lived for each other only in the Valley of the Many- Colored Grass?
17389At such times Mrs. Allan would say,"Eddie, what are you thinking about?"
17389But toward what part of the world should he turn his face-- to what market take his precious wares?
17389But where was that battle to be fought, and with what weapons?
17389But whither should he go?--whither?
17389But, as been said, why dwell upon the details of that bleak, despairing winter?
17389By what road should he escape?
17389Ca n''t you see that I must teach the boy to make you a better return for your kindness than lying to hide his mischief?"
17389Can that which began never and shall never end consider a few wretched years of its incarnate life?
17389Confession?
17389Could anything be more fitting-- more descriptive?
17389Could it be Eddie?--Alone?
17389Could it be possible that the question asked with that serious face, that quiet respectful air, was intended for a joke?
17389Could it be that God''s highest creation was a more perishable thing than the lifeless work of its own hand?
17389Could it be that he had been two years an exile from these homelike comforts or had it been only one of his dreams?
17389Could there be another such gentle, tender, flower- like woman on earth?

17389Graham, did you never feel like throwing yourself to the devil for no reason at all other than the desire to be perverse?
17389Had he failed to obtain employment?
17389Had he gone further-- to New York, perhaps, or Philadelphia?
17389Had his gift of the gods deserted him?
17389Had she heard her own cause so sweetly championed, her own name so sweetly cleared of opprobrium?
17389Had she, looking out from high Heaven, seen the gracious greeting of the beautiful being who was Madonna and Psyche in one?
17389Has Mrs. Whitman no friend in your knowledge that can faithfully explain Poe to her?"
17389He became more and more convinced that there was a reason,--what was it?
17389He had indeed found the end of the rainbow, but what did it amount to?
17389He that had always looked for signs in the skies, had he not found one?
17389Her home?
17389Her name?
17389His cherished comrade whose beauty, whose purity and innocence, the stored sweets of whose nature were for him alone?
17389His impulse was to run away-- but where could he go?
17389How could I?
17389How could he bear to leave her for even a little while?
17389How could he have so utterly forgotten it?
17389How could he leave her?
17389How could he leave her?
17389How could he plead for a return of his love?
17389How could he refuse them?
17389How indeed, was he to live when the only work he knew how to do had"no marketable value?"
17389How many heads, how many right hands had the man-- his readers asked each other-- that he could turn out such a mass of work of such high order?
17389How was a dreamer to breathe in a boarding- house?
17389How was one of the furtive eye and the black heart of a Rufus Griswold to understand love of woman of which reverence was a chief ingredient?
17389How''s the rheumatiz?"
17389I wonder will we ever dance to old Cy''s fiddle again?"
17389I''m dying of loneliness and the want of somebody to love and to love me-- somebody who understands me-- and you do, do n''t you, Myra, darling?"
17389In what fashion then, could he and his little bride proclaim their secret that would not do violence to their own taste or set a buzz of gossip going?
17389Is there anything more?"
17389It was to be their last walk together for who knew, who could tell how long?
17389Many a time, when he turned that abstracted gaze upon her, she had said to him,"What dat you lookin''at now, Honey?
17389Meantime the following conversation between Edgar and the old"Uncle:""Uncle Billy do you ever see ghosts now- adays?"
17389Might not Dr. Griswold be mistaken?
17389Nothing?
17389Now, Sir, tell me at once, where you have been and what you have been doing?"
17389Of what business of his( he fancied, out of the bitterness of his soul, the world saying) of what business of his was her death?
17389Or so exact in his dealings?
17389Or so refined in manners and speech?
17389She could not live and make a home for them always-- then, what would become of them?
17389Some minutes of tense stillness passed-- then,"Shall I read you her letter?"
17389Still his answer was as bitter as ever,"Oh, well, what does it all amount to?
17389That the impudent fellow could have been quizzing him?
17389The forlorn details of his last visit, his lack of right to cross that threshold uninvited-- what mattered such considerations now?
17389The new poem was unintelligible to the critics-- but what of that?
17389The poetic eyes that looked into hers mellowed, the cynical voice softened:"Do n''t you Myra?
17389Then why should he mind what the world calls poverty?"
17389They were busy with their various avocations and interests-- what room in their hearts and homes could there be for a wanderer like himself?
17389This flame was burned out, he told himself-- why rake its cold ashes?
17389Tremulously she penned her answer to his appeal, but was it Fate again, which caused the letter to miscarry?
17389Was he back in John Allan''s counting house?
17389Was he grateful?
17389Was he ill?
17389Was he in this second Helen, in this second garden, to find again the worshipped Helen of his boyhood?
17389Was he to know in reality the miracle he had imagined and written of in these two phantasies?--the reincarnation of personal identity?
17389Was his Virginia ill?
17389Was it just a notion of his( Mr. Graham wondered) that made him feel that here was poetry pure and simple?--_visible_ poetry?
17389Was it possible that an habitual drunkard could turn out such a mass of brilliant and artistic work?
17389Was it possible that the demure girl talking to her so seriously of love and marriage was her little Virginia-- her baby?
17389Was it the Imp of the Perverse that caused him to positively decline, and to persist that"Dreamland"was all he had to offer just then?
17389Was it_ her_ chamber?
17389Was she like the lady of the manor he remembered?
17389Was she, too, awake and alive to the beauty of this magic night?
17389Was the priest a wizard?
17389Was the sky always so blue in Spring Garden, he wondered?
17389Was there anything in the world so sweet as its odor, combined with that of the roses and the other flowers that filled the gardens?
17389Were his dreams of"Morella"and of"Ligeia"to come true?
17389What business had he to mourn?
17389What could have been more fitting than that the gracious words of"Helen of a thousand dreams"should come to him in Richmond?
17389What could he do that would bring him the price of a loaf?-- Did the question appal him?
17389What could it mean, this rising of the Star of Love upon the hour of his bitterest need but a sign of hope, of peace?
17389What could the man mean?
17389What difference did the taunts of schoolmates, the hardness of a foster- father make now?
17389What had led her into the moonlit garden when all the world slept?
17389What has happened?"
17389What has money to do with happiness?
17389What if he should not be able to make more?
17389What made it different from others of its neighborhood and character?
17389What manner of man was this?
17389What marked this quaint, small homestead?--set back from the quiet village street-- tucked away behind its garden- spot from the din of the world?
17389What mattered all the wounds, all the woes of his past life?
17389What should they find to say to each other now?
17389What was her name?
17389What was the new wife like, he wondered?
17389When one''s soul has been hurt, what matters mere physical pain?
17389When the questions,"What''s your name?"
17389Where was Edgar Poe?
17389Whither should he fly from their harrassments?
17389Whither should he go?
17389Whither should he turn his steps?
17389Who could tell what good fortune they might fall upon in New York?
17389Who could tell?
17389Who knew, who could tell, it questioned, how much might depend upon this meeting?
17389Who knows?
17389Who says there are not compensations in this life?"
17389Who would guard her from other eyes, that as her beauty and charm came to their full bloom might look covetously upon her?
17389Why not Philadelphia?
17389Why not a union between her children-- her all?
17389Why should he not be a publisher as well as a printer?
17389Why should he not be happy?
17389Why was this not what she would have chosen?
17389Will the boy ever amount to anything, I wonder?"
17389Would it always be his fate, he wondered, to love where untimely death was lying in wait?
17389Would it_ take_?
17389Would people like it?
17389Would you have him grow up into a vagabond?
17389Yet, what matter?--Was her sleep the less peaceful?
17389Yet-- was it not?
17389_ I want you._ What do you say to undertaking it?"
17389_ What should he wear?_ Still holding the open note in his hand, he looked down ruefully at his clothes-- his only ones.
17389he replied, with a shrug, as he took a seat beside her, under the roses,"Congratulate?
17389she cried?
23234''I, Louis Napoleon, take solemn oath Upon the honor of a man and king--''Shall I go on, my lord?

23234( Touching him) But now, My friend?
23234( Touching his brow) O, where shall I hide it?
23234( Tries to write, stops, goes on, trembles, and looks up)... Can I know fear?
23234( Turns away) Can a soul''s_ eyes_ be dumb?
23234( Turns smiling to greet Carlotta who enters carrying flowers) So early out?
23234( Virginia is silent) Why are you so pale?
23234( Virginia peers around a shrub) Who could lock life''s door on such a face?
23234( With bitter scorn) And did the love that makes one prayer to Heaven Rule in that choice?
23234( Writes) You, too, rebel, old pen?
23234... Are these thy ways, ambition?
23234... Do you remember, Charles, the winter day He climbed to Valtelina''s ice- bound huts To bear the starving people food?
23234... Have you forgot Aseffa?
23234... You love my lord?
23234A false dawn, is it not?
23234A man most fair... of lordly form, and young?
23234A man whose hands are red With God''s own blood?
23234A slander on these lips?
23234Abdication?
23234Above all other men?
23234After a moment of agony, rises, goes to table and looks at papers) What is it I have ruined?
23234Again?
23234Ah, I am mistaken?

23234And dearer than-- You have a wife?
23234And do you care?
23234And give it up For a green lad fresh from the fields of Gazim?
23234And how, Mr. Brackett, may that knowledge be of interest to you?
23234And if I am you will love me always?
23234And is that all, O Heaven?
23234And she is beautiful as good?
23234And that-- is Khosrove?

23234And you are patient?
23234And you have made me a handkerchief?
23234And you will get well for me?
23234And you will sit up a little now, dear?
23234And you will take a warning from me in good part, wo n''t you?
23234And you would trust this devil with the life Of captive foes?
23234Any robbers on the way?
23234Are we not, good Charles?
23234Are you making holiday purchases?

23234Are you there, my devil?
23234Armenia is my friend?
23234Art ready for thy king?
23234Art thou not queen?
23234Ask all the waiting world,--ay, even God, To pause and count the heart- beats of a woman?
23234Asleep, my Lerdo?
23234At the door she meets Zurie who turns back and goes in with her) Mrs. C. Now, Nelson?

23234But what are we to do?
23234But what of me, Virginia?
23234But why say this To one who has lost all?
23234But will that sweet day come?
23234But you have loved?
23234But you will never be impatient with her, Edgar?
