19966Why have you thus deserted the lifelong friend of your father?''
19966Why, he is the biggest man in the House-- a great swell-- money to throw at the birds; and he''s been a throwin''it, hey?''
19966Will there never be any let up?
19966Worse by far than the affairs with the little Italian, or the fat Princess, eh, Bobby, my boy?
19966Would I have kissed you else?
19966Would n''t that everlastingly unsettle you?
19966Yes?
19966You are not afraid to speak out, eh?''
19966You could turn me over to the first cop that heaves in sight, and there''s one over there now-- why do n''t you do it?
19966You get a little dippy toward morning, do n''t you?
19966You hear me?
19966You know we are living in New York this winter?''
19966You remember Archie-- and the day he was drowned?
19966You shiver and shake----""For drinks?"
19966You''ve all heard of him-- haven''t yer?
19966You''ve twenty- three cents, hey?
19966Youth, my dear, is a great thing; what is there to compare with it?
19966and still higher?
19966he pointed upward,''higher yet?
15278A little more bile left over from yesterday?
15278About you, you little fool? 15278 All of you think now that a fellow like that will make a pretty good sort of a representative, do n''t you?"
15278Am I impudent, and all the things your grandfather said? 15278 And I was n''t to take any ordinary, human, business precautions about looking out for myself in any way, then?"
15278And how do you do to- day, Harlan Thornton?
15278And how is that old gorilla of a grandfather of yours? 15278 And kill his party?"
15278And the session still as calm as a millpond?
15278And what fault do you find with me after all these years?
15278And what will you say to Dave Everett and his friends, all of whom you''ll need at the polls?
15278And you construe that to mean that I''m pulling him into this thing so as to be able to work him in the interests of the machine, eh?
15278And you knew I''d hurry to come across the long bridge? 15278 And you never heard of anybody except patriots in politics, eh?"
15278And you''re pretty sure they can swing the organization when the caucus is called?
15278And you_ are_ going back to the woods? 15278 And, furthermore, what business of yours is it, anyway?"
15278Any choice?
15278Are you going to apologize?
15278Before what happens, Clare? 15278 Believe what?"
15278Bub, do you think Vard Waymouth, lawyer that he is, did n''t know just about how much that act would amount to after it got to operating? 15278 Busy?"
15278But he was right, was n''t he-- fundamentally right?
15278But why ca n''t you do the same in politics?
15278By Saint Mike, do you think you''ll tell me how to run my house?
15278By- the- way, I did n''t lie to you any about Luke''s girl, did I?
15278Ca n''t they be handled now that they''re in here?
15278Ca n''t you mention the name of that innocent girl without a slur or an insult? 15278 Ca n''t you see that I''m all stirred up by the excitement of this convention?"
15278Ca n''t you tell me what this means, Mr. Kavanagh? 15278 Can you give me a few minutes of your time?"
15278Cares of State, young man?
15278Did I say so?
15278Did you ever know a man to get anywhere in politics if he did n''t play the game-- honesty or no honesty?
15278Did you ever stop to think, boy, that human nature is a queer thing?
15278Did you ever_ see_ anything like it, did you ever_ hear_ anything like it, Honor''ble?
15278Did you tell the boys we''d settle promptly, and for them to keep away from the lawyers?
15278Do n''t you have the least idea?
15278Do n''t you remember that old Brad Dunham wrote to New York one spring and asked a commission man if he would take a million frogs''legs? 15278 Do n''t you suppose I knew what I was doing when I took you with me that night?
15278Do you intend to enforce the prohibitory law?
15278Do you mean that?
15278Do you realize how that sounds?
15278Do you think for a moment that I, the chairman of the Republican State Committee, am going into a convention with blinders on?
15278Do you want any of these gentlemen inside, General?
15278Eh?
15278Explain to me, Mr. Thornton, what is meant by your assault on a decent and honest citizen? 15278 Finding your old State campaign sicker than you thought for, hey, Luke?"
15278General Waymouth, have you a few moments to give me if I come to your room now?
15278Go in this way? 15278 Going to court my daughter, are you, according to the Thornton style of grabbing anything in sight that they want?"
15278Going to start a reform party, young man?
15278Harlan, how do you stand with the Kavanagh girl?
15278Has this lying scoundrel dared to bring his dirty scandal to you?
15278Have I ever said I wanted to marry your grandson? 15278 Have you another engagement?"
15278Have you asked her to marry you?
15278Have you been talking to this poor little girl as she tells me you have talked?
15278Have you decided? 15278 Have you got that right kind picked out for me-- along with the rest?
15278He has set you on me, has he, to pull me away from what I think is right? 15278 Hold a proxy from the ramrodders, eh?"
15278How about taxes? 15278 How do you like the sound of that, grandfather?"
15278How in blazes have they pulled over the sheriff?
15278How long have you been suspecting that?
15278How? 15278 I am sorry to ask you to do it, my boy, but if it is merely a social engagement, will you not beg to be excused?
15278I am? 15278 I ask you again, Thelismer, if there is no other way?"
15278I do n''t suppose you care to go over the plans with me to night?
15278I''d like to know what''s come over you to- day?
15278I''ve said enough now, have n''t I?
15278I--"My dear Harlan, you do n''t mean to say that you are proposing to me here in the face and eyes of this crowd?
15278If it''s a lie why are you afraid of telling Mr. Presson the whole truth and explaining the matter?
15278If it''s yours will you inform me what you intend to do with it?
15278If this is the way it all turns out, and I ca n''t have your friendship any longer, what is it that you''re going to do or I''m going to do?
15278If you find her?
15278If you wanted to start me, and start me fair and right, why did n''t you let my name go before that caucus to- day, and then hold off your hands?
15278Is Harlan down from the woods yet?
15278Is Mr. Spinney afraid of visitors?
15278Is Senator Pownal dictating the platform?
15278Is it?
15278Is n''t there any decency anywhere, in any man, General Waymouth, when he gets mixed into such things?
15278Is n''t there any good in the other side? 15278 Is that true about Spinney?"
15278Is there any reason why you ca n''t tell me where we are going?
15278Is there anything I can do, General Waymouth?
15278Is there anything the matter with my grandson?
15278It''s a beautiful game, hey, my boy?
15278It''s a party exigency, is n''t it?
15278It''s business for you and it''s business for us, and there''s no reason why you should n''t talk business, is there?
15278Just how was I to go about giving you that right?
15278Know? 15278 Led by a buck sheep and a human windmill, eh?"
15278Let''s see, you have n''t met Madeleine, Luke''s girl, since she was little, have you?
15278Like the seven years''itch, eh?
15278Linton, did n''t I tell you last night that you were circulating a lie?
15278May I?
15278Meaning that you''re going to keep up this dilly- dally business whether I allow you to or not?
15278Meaning?
15278Memorialize you, Mr. Representative, or throw it at you from the House gallery, concealed in a bouquet?
15278Mr. Harlan coming out here to meet me, or am I going in and hunt him up?
15278Mr. Thornton, will you kindly inform those people at the door that this is my room, and that I command them to withdraw?
15278My boy,he asked,"has the enemy captured you while you''ve been resting on your arms?
15278Now do you want to let it go further?
15278Now what is he going to say in his address?
15278Off where?
15278Oh, Harlan, do n''t you understand? 15278 Operate in a queer way, do I?"
15278Politics?
15278Pretty expensive, eh?
15278Pull him out-- that what you mean? 15278 Raising a few reliable Republicans from the dead, are you, elder?"
15278Reformers, eh?
15278So it took down three stands of buildings, did it, Harlan?
15278So now that you''ve become a very big man you''ve decided that grandfathers shall no longer be indulged in tyranny?
15278So you do get lonesome sometimes, Vard?
15278So you''re loaded with that, are you?
15278So, if I were n''t Thelismer Thornton''s grandson you would n''t take any interest in me at all?
15278Sort of ashamed of me, are n''t you?
15278Spinney, eh?
15278Still dwelling on visions of reform, eh?
15278That bunch of mangy pups out there for_ me?_ Why, Luke, that''s opposition. 15278 The boys right in the village, here, our own bunch, are all right, of course, Sylvester?"
15278Thelismer, why have you waited till now before saying this? 15278 Then what are you?"
15278Then you are all for reform-- one of the new reformers, eh?
15278Then your honesty puts you in opposition to my father, does it, sir?
15278Thinks he''s running with the pack, eh? 15278 To date the session has hardly been what you hoped-- perhaps that''s too strong a word-- what you expected it would be, has it?"
15278Universal salvation according to the new political creed?
15278Vard, you do n''t mean to tell me-- seriously, at this hour-- that you mean to be a candidate?
15278Waiting for me? 15278 Was n''t it Governor Waymouth who signed the first prohibition bill in this State?"
15278Well, my boys, what''s the programme?
15278Well, was n''t it your own suggestion that we use these men right?
15278Well, what did he say?
15278Well, why did you back- district chaps come in here yesterday and try to lick him in the caucus?
15278Well?
15278What am I to be down to that legislature-- myself, or Thelismer Thornton''s grandson?
15278What are you after here, Niles?
15278What did you stab him for-- how much?
15278What do you mean?
15278What do you need in the way of help?
15278What kind of a crazy- headed, lumber- jack performance are you perpetrating here?
15278What kind of a girl?
15278What kind of a trick is this, standing up here at the eleventh hour and putting the knife into your party?
15278What kind of laws are you going to make?
15278What reforms?
15278What sort of business is it?
15278What would you expect him to do-- join in, and be just like the others? 15278 What''s all this about?"
15278What''s that? 15278 What''s the matter, Tom?
15278What''s this Aunt Charette''s you''re talking about?
15278Where is she?
15278Where''s the crowd that''s backing you-- your own boys?
15278Where?
15278Who else could have pulled it off as you have, Thelismer? 15278 Who''s going to jump?"
15278Whose human nature are you referring to-- yours or mine?
15278Why did I say it?
15278Will ye talk to her through the air or over the telephone?
15278Will you be my adviser for the rest of my life?
15278Will you send for it?
15278With all due respect to your greatness, General, is n''t it true that he turned the convention-- has made you Governor?
15278Would n''t it be a good idea, Squire Thornton, to let us run our own business awhile? 15278 Yes; but, grinning Jehosaphat, how much time have you got to do it in?
15278You admit there are two sides?
15278You declare yourself an enemy, then, do you?
15278You defend Linton, then? 15278 You do n''t have any idea, do you, that Vard Waymouth is going to play politics with sugar- plums instead of with the chips he finds on the table?
15278You do n''t know much about the practical end of politics, do you?
15278You do n''t mean to say you''d do that?
15278You do n''t mean to tell me that''Fog- horn''Spinney is a dangerous candidate, do you?
15278You do n''t mean to tell me,he demanded,"that you''re going to take this time of all others to swap horses?
15278You do n''t pay much attention to my wishes, do you, Harlan?
15278You do n''t take exceptions to honest efforts to develop our State, do you, General Waymouth?
15278You do?
15278You feel the cold water on your feet and you lay it to me rocking the boat, hey?
15278You say that to me after the sort of a caucus you sprung to- day? 15278 You sent word to him, you red- headed Irish cat?
15278You think it looks expensive, taking the thing right now at apparent face value?
15278You understand me, do n''t you, Madeleine?
15278You want to be Governor, do n''t you? 15278 You wo n''t stop and listen to what may be for the actual best interests of our State, then?"
15278You''d call it a fair understanding, would you, to come here and tell me to get off my own doorstep because you claimed the place?
15278You''ll allow that I do?
15278You''re going to desert the General?
15278You''re looking at that map, eh? 15278 You''re willing to leave it to me?"
15278You''ve been hearing the old man cussed thoroughly and scientifically, eh?
15278Young lady-- child? 15278 _ For_ me?"
15278_ What?_roared the Honorable Thelismer, jarred out of his baleful calm.
15278''How did she end out?''
15278A little eccentric, eh?"
15278After refusing?
15278And do n''t you suppose I know how it''s all arranged?"
15278And how many times more have I got to tell you not to be impertinent to me?"
15278And where does he get money to buy automobiles with?
15278And where''s your party, then?
15278And, by- the- way, I understand he''s making a politician out of you, too, to- day?
15278Are we going to get that resubmission plank in the platform this year?"
15278Are you going to let both the other candidates be put in nomination before you spring the trap?"
15278Backing reformers?"
15278But I wonder whether you know just what it was you shied at?"
15278But is n''t it time, gentlemen, to have a test of the_ practice_ of prohibition?
15278But the world looks better now, does n''t it, son?"
15278But what is there I can do in politics, just now, different from what I''m doing?
15278But you do n''t see him in jail, do you?"
15278But your grandfather?"
15278By simply talking about it?
15278Ca n''t you use your pull, and get me a job as waiter or something down there for the session?
15278Can you afford to be jealous and mad when you''ve got a fellow like Harlan Thornton willing to go down to the legislature and work for you?
15278Did n''t think I''d be running around the room on all fours, eh, or climb the wall, or growl and try to bite you?"
15278Did you hear him just rip into those ramrodders?
15278Did you?"
15278Do n''t you know, Thornton, why you ca n''t take Madeleine Presson into public, this whole State looking on?
15278Do n''t you see that I ca n''t listen to you now?
15278Do you call a trick to steal my nomination away from me at the last moment gentlemanly or decent?
15278Do you feel that an honest Governor would help your self- respect?"
15278Do you hear me, Kyle?"
15278Do you know any ill of me?"
15278Do you mean to tell me that all the men in politics in this State are wrong except you and old General Waymouth?"
15278Do you propose to be sheep any longer?"
15278Do you propose to put my name before that caucus?
15278Do you realize how you have insulted both of us?
15278Do you understand me?"
15278Do you understand?"
15278Do you understand?"
15278Do you want him?"
15278Do you want one of those blatherskites to represent you?
15278Do you want that for this State, Vard?"
15278Do you want to see a man like Enoch Dudley representing this district?
15278Duke?"
15278Every one seems to be satisfied, eh-- even the radicals in the prohibition movement?
15278Got you jealous and suspicious and mad?
15278Harlan, are you the kind of a fellow that would hold your grandfather up before the people of this State in any such light?
15278Harlan, what have you to say to that?"
15278Harlan, you think too much of your grandfather to do such a thing as that, do n''t you?"
15278Has he ever said he wanted to marry me?
15278Has he got home yet?"
15278Have I known him all my life without finding that out?
15278Have n''t you made him change his mind?"
15278Have they finished drafting the platform?"
15278Have you second sight, little Clare?"
15278He glared down the long street and grunted,"Grinding their knives, eh?"
15278He shamed and insulted me because I''m a girl-- and ca n''t a girl have a friend that''s tender and good to her?"
15278He wants me to be like the rest of''em, eh?
15278How much money do you and your neighbors make boarding the scholars?
15278I''m pretty frank, ai n''t I?
15278If they could it would be better, would n''t it?"
15278In order to be honest, do you find it necessary to oppose all the things my father wants to do?
15278Is he presenting your name?"
15278Is it because you have such a wicked old mind that you think we can not always be the true friends we have been?
15278Is it true what I hear?
15278Is it yes, my young friend?"
15278Is n''t that so?
15278Is that it?"
15278Is that the kind of a girl for any young chap?
15278Is that the kind of a man you hold up as a success, Miss Presson?"
15278Is that what you are trying to do?
15278Is the party going to be honest?
15278It did n''t work-- now, did it?"
15278It''s his party, is n''t it, that puts him on the job?"
15278It''s on those terms, is it, that I''m to get the help of the men the Republican party has selected as its executives?"
15278It''s strange, is n''t it, that what sounds so innocent should be so bitter?"
15278Let me ask you-- is General Waymouth offended, very much so, because I withdrew my support this morning?"
15278Now I want to ask you one question: Do you want Arba Spinney for the next Governor of this State-- sitting in the chair that you honored?
15278Now answer me, young man-- or I''ll say, young_ men_ of the State?"
15278Now what are you going to do?"
15278Now what do you know about it?
15278Now what do you suppose I''m sneaking up on Varden Waymouth in this way for?"
15278Now will you take a little advice from me, on the condition that I''ll follow up that advice with some practical help?"
15278Now, how about that?"
15278Now, what''ll I say so''s to give him what''s comin''and still be legal?''
15278Oh, my God, why have I grown up a fool-- why have I wasted the long days?"
15278Presson, is the State Committee behind me?"
15278Say, Mr. Harlan, what do you say?
15278See?
15278See?
15278Shall it be for all of us: honesty in principle and unswerving obedience to every party profession we make?
15278So what are you growling about?"
15278Still more humbly he asked her:"If you have been thinking the matter over, Miss Presson, what advice do you give me?"
15278Tell me what she knows; and how does she talk?"
15278That so?"
15278That what you wanted me to do?"
15278That''s man to man-- understand?
15278That''s politics according to the code, is it, grandfather?"
15278They got you going, did n''t they, when they went around telling that I thought I owned you in this district, body and soul?
15278Thornton?"
15278Was I chosen in the caucus to- day?
15278Well, Briggs, what is it?"
15278Well, if you''ve asked her and mean it, have you got anything to do with that Kavanagh girl being around this State House to- day?"
15278Well, which is she?"
15278What are we to do, then?"
15278What are you afraid of?
15278What are you going to do with that steer team-- no, mule team-- that''s better?"
15278What are you going to do?"
15278What are you talking about, child?"
15278What did I just tell you?"
15278What did you tell her?"
15278What do you mean by Canibas moose?"
15278What do you mean by teaming him from the hotel to this convention hall with a body- guard to insult men who have business with him?"
15278What do you mean, then, by coming here in this fashion?"
15278What do you mean?"
15278What do you mean?"
15278What does he say to you, on the side?"
15278What in the devil is the matter with the young men nowadays, anyway?
15278What''s the matter with me?
15278What''s the matter with you, Professor?"
15278What''s the matter with you?
15278What''s the matter with you?"
15278What''s your plan?
15278Where did General Waymouth go?"
15278Where would any good come out of anything?"
15278Which has he eaten, do you know-- the raven of contention or the dove of peace?"
15278Who''ve you got in mind?"
15278Why are you letting the boy do it, Varden?"
15278Why ca n''t we do it in State affairs?
15278Why do n''t you help us make a break in this thing?
15278Why is it the big men of this State-- men like you, that have the influence to set things straight-- won''t back the man that''s honest and right?"
15278Why not call to order?"
15278Why should not I practice a little divination?
15278Why the devil should he?
15278Will you accompany me, Harlan?"
15278Will you agree to some middle ground, if it can be shown that more men can be made sober and less men hypocrites?"
15278Will you come?"
15278Will you inform them that I do n''t intend to wait much longer?"
15278Will you let us come to you at the right time and make it plain?"
15278Will you release me from that promise?
15278Will you stand?"
15278Will you tell me what you have done?"
15278Will you tell me?"
15278Would that suit you?"
15278You are not going to let them send you away where you''ll forget your best friends?"
15278You ask me how I stand?
15278You dirty pup, do you dare to intimate-- are you lunatic enough to take stock in any such story about me?"
15278You do n''t dare to insist on the pledges-- now, do you?"
15278You do n''t want Spinney, do you?"
15278You got fooled, now, did n''t you?
15278You have something to ask me?
15278You hear me?
15278You intend to marry Madeleine Presson, do n''t you?"
15278You put Governor Waymouth and your politics first, do you?"
15278You remember Pod McClintock and his epileptic fits?
15278You say you have asked her to marry you?
15278You say you have n''t suggestions, Vard?"
15278You sneaked back to Fort Canibas last summer to see her-- now did n''t you?"
15278You think I''ve stolen land, do you?
15278You thought I''d pitch in and pull you over to the machine-- you were afraid of that, now, were n''t you?"
15278You were n''t afraid of this old chap, were you?
15278You''re asking men to support you and back you with money?
15278You''re going to vote against me, are you?"
15278You''ve got a lobby and a legislature, have n''t you?"
15278_ You_ forgotten by the younger generation of this State?
41130A false name and address, of course?
41130An extraordinary house, Johnson-- eh?
41130And he resolved to say good- bye to the Bar and devote himself entirely to politics?
41130And he was not the swarthy, thick- set young man who had gone to Horsham?
41130And her ladyship?
41130And his name?
41130And how long would that be?
41130And that little thing?
41130And the next step when you got to London?
41130And the portrait of Lady Gladys that was sent me? 41130 And the solution?"
41130And their motive?
41130And what became of Mr Monkton that night?
41130And what can I do for you, Mr Wingate?
41130And what then?
41130And when did he retire from his profession?
41130And when was it that you went to Forest View, and masqueraded in the guise of a parlourmaid?
41130And who was the instigator?
41130And whose was the devilish mind that conceived this awful thing, and what was the motive?
41130And you are quite positive it was Mr Monkton?
41130And you went?
41130Any chance of getting a peep at a photograph of her ladyship?
41130Any message, sir?
41130Are you quite certain? 41130 But on what charge?"
41130But who could have sent it? 41130 But why do you ask that question?"
41130But would that be impossible?
41130But you have something more to tell me, surely?
41130But, dearest, what was his motive for such a dastardly deed?
41130By whom were those instructions given?
41130Can not a statesman, worn out and weary with hard work, take a brief holiday without letting loose all these absurd rumours?
41130Can you account for his repeating the word` Moly''before he died?
41130Can you describe this visitor to me?
41130Can you give me a description of the person who bought them?
41130Can you give me any clue to these letters on the envelope, I wonder?
41130Can you recall any occasion on which he failed to notify you?
41130Dearest, if I have been able to comfort you now, could you let me comfort and cherish you all my life? 41130 Did he give you the impression of a man of means?"
41130Did n''t I tell you this morning that I fell in love with you a long time ago? 41130 Did they take all the furniture?"
41130Did this_ fracas_ to which you allude take place before or after his marriage?
41130Did you bring away from your business any documents or memoranda that would throw light upon this particular transaction?
41130Did you learn anything about his private affairs, his profession or occupation?
41130Did you not see him at lunch; you were both there?
41130Did you notice the man?
41130Did you receive a portrait of a friend of yours, Lady Gladys Rainham, the envelope containing it directed in a strange handwriting?
41130Do you know his friend''s name?
41130Do you know where Millington went when he left?
41130Do you make this paper nowadays?
41130Do you mind telling me how you first made his acquaintance, Mrs Saxton?
41130Do you think they gave him anything, any drug to hasten his death?
41130Do you think you could recognise both of them again-- eh?
41130Does he have anybody to see him?
41130Does n''t Lord Wrenwyck know? 41130 Eh-- what?
41130Excuse me, sir, but can you oblige me with a match? 41130 Has he any acquaintances in the place?"
41130Has he, to your knowledge, ever made any active enemies?
41130Has that young woman called?
41130Have you any of those old note- books left?
41130Have you formed any opinion about it?
41130He kept up the_ role_ of the informer I suppose?
41130He never mentioned to you that he had left Camberwell?
41130How are things out at Hendon?
41130How do you stand, Mr Wingate, as regards time? 41130 How should I possibly know?
41130I am speaking to Miss Monkton, am I not? 41130 I believe I have the honour of addressing Lady Wrenwyck?"
41130I daresay I could smuggle one out for you for half- an- hour, but it''s exciting suspicion, is n''t it? 41130 I have been of some help to you, then, dearest?"
41130I presume you had several clerks in your employ?
41130I see by your card you are from Scotland Yard-- eh? 41130 I suppose it''s the old man you''re after, this time?"
41130I suppose you ca n''t help me with any dates?
41130I suppose you had not heard of it?
41130I take it he is not speaking the truth when he says that he knew Mr Monkton intimately?
41130I take it, from that remark, that he has had a somewhat chequered career?
41130I wonder if Farloe has any of his papers, or, more likely still, has abstracted any?
41130I''ll not whisper a word, but-- well, do you happen to know anyone of the name of Stent?
41130I''ve just missed Mrs Saxton-- eh?
41130If he could only throw some light upon this awful mystery?
41130In other words, men like yourself-- eh? 41130 In other words, that Mr Monkton has been done away with, for motives we do not know, by the person or persons who put the man into the taxi?"
41130Is Mrs Marsh at home?
41130Is it far?
41130Is it important, do you think?
41130Is it too much to ask you to give us the benefit of any theory you have formed, Mr Smeaton?
41130Is that all you know, my good lad?
41130Is your name Herbert, may I ask?
41130It was a clue worth following, was n''t it?
41130It was you who sent it, was it not?
41130May I speak my mind plainly?
41130Mr Smeaton was very peculiar to- day, was n''t he, Austin? 41130 No news of Mrs Saxton, I suppose?"
41130Not my father?
41130Now, do you remember, or did you ever know, the name of this fussy person who was so hard to please?
41130Now, what''s the next move? 41130 Now, who is Herbert, that''s the question?"
41130Oh, Austin, what can this mean?
41130Oh, that, sir? 41130 Secrets, I suppose?"
41130Shall I ever forget it?
41130Shall I go on with my notes?
41130Shall we ever learn the part he played in this mystery?
41130So she got clear away?
41130Something has happened quite recently?
41130Stent? 41130 That gentleman who went out just now-- isn''t he Mr Emerson, the well- known barrister?"
41130The husband of the popular Lady Wrenwyck, who in her youth was a celebrated beauty?
41130Then all of this particular paper came from Grimmel and Grice''s?
41130Then something is being concealed from the nation?
41130Thirsty with your ride-- eh, sir?
41130To be in time for the Paris train in the morning?
41130To which of the two do you attach the greater importance?
41130Was he on the Chancery or the Common Law side?
41130Well, Austin?
41130Well, Varney?
41130Well, this is not the infernal news, I suppose? 41130 Well, what does it all mean?"
41130Well, you came to see me, because you have remembered something-- or found something fresh-- eh?
41130Were you able to give him any information?
41130What did you do with the car?
41130What do you know about him? 41130 What do you make of it?"
41130What do you say to an hour or two at the Empire? 41130 What has Mr Farloe told you?"
41130What has she to do with it?
41130What household has he? 41130 What is called a skeleton in the cupboard, you mean-- eh?
41130What is his address?
41130What is the use of resting? 41130 What name shall I say, please?"
41130What name shall I say?
41130What rumour?
41130What sort of a person is she? 41130 What was the connection between him and the man whom they have identified as Bolinski?
41130What would be the present age of this lady?
41130When did he die, sir?
41130When did he die?
41130Where did you put them down?
41130Where does he live, and what''s his name?
41130Which meant that you were left to amuse yourself alone, eh?
41130Who is the oldest assistant in the shop?
41130Who ran tell? 41130 Who says that he has disappeared?"
41130Who shall I say, please?
41130Who then is Mr Williams?
41130Whose car is that big grey one, third in the row yonder?
41130Why beat about the bush? 41130 Why should I tell you an untruth?"
41130Would it be inconveniencing you to spend a few more hours down there?
41130Would ten pounds be too much?
41130Yes-- and then?
41130Yes?
41130You are interested in Mr Stent? 41130 You are quite certain of that-- eh, Farloe?"
41130You are quite positive that he is not acquainted with Mr Monkton in some peculiar and mysterious way?
41130You are quite sure that the police have not traced you yet?
41130You did n''t look at the envelope, I suppose?
41130You fear the worst?
41130You have n''t forgotten that young beggar Varney is on the track?
41130You know Mr Monkton by sight, I presume? 41130 You know nothing of its nature?"
41130You know the story of the removal in the dead of night?
41130You refuse to tell me anything?
41130You wanted to know if--?
41130You were on very early in the scene, were you not?
41130You will be sure to come to- morrow?
41130You would say that was something to work on, would n''t you?
41130A man trained to the law, versed in public affairs, was he likely to wear his heart upon his sleeve?
41130After the noble way in which you have behaved to- night, is it likely I should refuse such a trifling thing?"
41130All work and no play-- you know the old proverb, sir-- eh?
41130And I suppose you do n''t want to take too many people into your confidence?"
41130And Sheila had put no questions herself, although she was burning to ask her:"Who is that man at Brighton to whom you sent the telegram of warning?"
41130And for what motive?
41130And having gone there, why had he alighted at the corner, instead of driving up to the house?
41130And is he a widower, or bachelor, or married?"
41130And the greatest point of all was the whereabouts of the Stolen Statesman: was he dead, or was he still living?
41130And what had become of the other inmates of Forest View?
41130And what part did your brother play in it all?"
41130And why--"she broke suddenly into a low wail--"is father not home?"
41130And yet who could be sure?
41130As he waited in the hall, he wondered whether she would refuse to see him?
41130Breakfast at half- past nine-- eh?"
41130But I suppose you do n''t take guests?"
41130But do not all young girls?
41130But how the devil are we to get at Mrs Adair?
41130But if the money had been taken, why not the watch?
41130But was there ever a spendthrift yet who would admit as much?
41130But what would be the good?
41130But why did you distress yourself with the journey?
41130But why do you come to me about this?"
41130But why,"he added,"do you ask about this man Stent?"
41130Can you come to lunch-- or before, if possible?"
41130Can you guess what he is coming for?''
41130Can you oblige me with her address?"
41130Can you spare me the whole of the day?"
41130Can you tell for whom those letters were cut, and what they stand for?"
41130Could I refuse you anything on such a night as this?"
41130Did he want to pump him as to what he knew concerning Roselli, whom of course, he did not know was dead?
41130Did she once know, and had she forgotten?
41130Did the hall- porter recognise him?
41130Did you ever receive any letters from him?"
41130Did you get a good look at the faces of the two men?"
41130Did''e really die afterwards?"
41130Do get here as quickly as you can-- wo n''t you?
41130Do not be offended-- will you?"
41130Do you happen to know anything of the man Boyle?"
41130Do you know where he lives?"
41130Do you tumble?"
41130Gentlemen of your profession do not generally interest themselves in other persons without some strong motive, I presume?"
41130Had he ever an entanglement of any kind, the effects of which might pursue him in later life?"
41130Had he told the truth or were his statements pure invention?
41130Had it not enjoined her to the strictest secrecy?
41130Had the shock been too much for the old man''s reason?
41130Has that really been done?"
41130Have you any news?
41130Have you many people stopping here?"
41130Have you rung up Monkton''s clubs?
41130Have you seen enough?
41130Have_ you_ anything to suggest?"
41130He looks ghastly, does n''t he?
41130He ruminated for a few moments, and then said, abruptly,"You have brought it with you?"
41130How came it that Mr Strange''s parlourmaid wore the clothes of a servant, and spoke in the tones of a highly educated young woman?
41130How can it be otherwise?
41130How could I have borne it without you?"
41130How could he ever aspire to the hand of"Monkton''s daughter?"
41130How could she keep such an important thing from him, from the lover who had encompassed her with such tender devotion through this terrible time?
41130How did she outwit the detective?"
41130How did you guess?"
41130How should she get through the interval?
41130How would you class her?
41130I suppose she''s likely to be pretty punctual?"
41130I suppose you did not notice the number?"
41130I take it, we know nothing of him in connection with this case?"
41130I wonder if this Mr Stent happens to be a friend of yours, or your father''s?"
41130I wonder where he is?
41130I''ve kept the taxi waiting; shall I give you a lift to Horsham?
41130If I knock at the door in the course of half- an- hour or so, do you think I''m likely to find him in?"
41130If it was Monkton, as he believed, why had he gone to Chesterfield Street?
41130If she wanted to get to Piccadilly Circus, why had she taken this roundabout route?
41130If that is the case, would you let his daughter look through them, in the hope of finding something that might throw a light upon the case?"
41130Is he a quiet sort of Anarchist, or what?"
41130Is he what we should call a gentleman?"
41130Is she alone?"
41130Is this Stent-- or not?
41130It was not a very cheering interview, certainly, but how could there be any chance of hopefulness at present?
41130May I beg you to come to the point, and state the object of your visit?
41130May I walk with you a little way?
41130Might he take the liberty of coming over to Southport during the day at some hour convenient to himself?
41130Miss Monkton?"
41130Miss Monkton?"
41130My young woman knows the handwriting, and the postmark will tell you what you want-- eh?"
41130No difficulty in finding her ladyship, I suppose?"
41130Now, Mrs Saxton, will you tell us who was the dying man they put into the taxi and what was their object in putting him into Mr Monkton''s clothes?"
41130Now, can you carry your mind back, and give me any particulars of the transaction?
41130Now, do you recognise this handwriting?"
41130Now, in what way can I assist you, Mr Smeaton, beyond confirming that fact?"
41130Oh, that somebody here could understand me?"
41130Or did they suspect him?
41130Or should they refer him to the detective- inspector who had the case in hand?
41130Or was she debating whether she would feign ignorance?
41130Perhaps he might take you just a little way-- once round the aerodrome-- eh?"
41130Roselli tells us we can find his man in Manchester?"
41130Shall we say five o''clock?
41130Should they trust this singular young man, who spoke with such apparent frankness?
41130Smeaton put an obvious question:"Have they heard anything from Stent?"
41130So he has turned up again-- eh?
41130Stent?"
41130The important one remained: where was she at the present moment?
41130The important thing remained: what was the reason of his hurried flight?
41130The maid interrupted his reflections by calling over the banisters,"Will you come up, please?"
41130The question I am going to ask you, dear, is this: Have you ever had any cause to suspect there was some hidden mystery in your father''s life?
41130Then I will bring you back home, I wonder if you remember that day-- it seems such a little while ago-- when we first met?"
41130Then, when you feel you can take up your life again, may I come to you, and repeat what I have said to- night?"
41130They had made a discovery, but what were they to do with it?
41130They walked together in silence for a few paces, and then Wingate suddenly blurted out:"What has become of Reginald Monkton?
41130They''re still inside, eh?"
41130Those would be useless for your purpose?"
41130To reiterate the slenderness of her knowledge of the man Stent, so that the fact would be communicated to Smeaton?
41130To whom could he apply?
41130WHO WAS MONKTON''S ENEMY?
41130Was Reginald Monkton dead, or still alive?
41130Was he going to discover anything useful?
41130Was he honestly puzzled as he appeared, or shielding the writer of that threatening epistle with his assumption of ignorance?
41130Was he on the right track at last?
41130Was he really Stent?
41130Was he really ill and abroad?
41130Was he speaking the truth or not?
41130Was it an envelope from the company''s office?
41130Was it fancy, or did he see an expression of relief steal across Strange''s impenetrable mask?
41130Was it possible Mrs Saxton had caught sight of her at the post- office in Edgware Road after all, and had come with the intention of pumping her?
41130Was it possible that anybody who had once lived decently, could draw a breath in this musty and abominable hole?
41130Was the feather- headed fool right, and he, Smeaton, upon the wrong road?
41130Was the man simply an original kind of beggar, and was all this the preface to a request for a modest loan?
41130Was the man who had had the cipher engraved the actual writer of the letter?
41130Well, Sheila,"he asked merrily, turning to his daughter,"what have you been doing this morning?"
41130Were you acquainted with your customer''s handwriting?
41130What can I do for you?"
41130What did that surreptitious excursion portend?
41130What do you know about him?"
41130What do you want us to do?"
41130What does it mean?"
41130What does she do for cash on these jaunts?"
41130What had become of Monkton?
41130What had been the motive of her visit?
41130What have they got to go upon?"
41130What is your business with me?"
41130What is your name?"
41130What lover could refuse such an invitation, proffered by such sweet lips?
41130What object had he in meeting your father at all, when to all appearances they had carefully laid their plans in another direction?
41130What of the Italian who died at Forest View, and the man Whyman who disappeared after Smeaton''s visit to him at Southport?"
41130What the devil have I to do with such a place?"
41130What then?"
41130What was she doing at this particular moment?
41130What was the explanation of his being dressed in her father''s clothes?
41130What was the motive underlying the scheme?
41130What would they think-- what would they say?''"
41130When he had completed his purchase, he asked in as cordial a voice as he could assume:"Are there any letters or telegrams for the name of Herbert?"
41130Which one is it?
41130Who''s that?"
41130Who''s that?"
41130Why did my father dine at the Italian restaurant with Bolinski?"
41130Why do n''t you go and see the landlord, Mr Clarke?
41130Why had Mrs Saxton, object of suspicion as she knew herself to be, ventured so near her?
41130Why had his name disappeared from the Parliamentary reports?
41130Why had this sudden recollection of an old conversation come to her in the dead of the night, if not for some purpose?
41130Why is this man wearing father''s clothes?
41130Why on earth had Mrs Saxton and her companion driven to Chesterfield Street?
41130Why the devil do you want to go to the House at all for, laying yourself open to be cross- examined by anybody and everybody you meet?
41130Why was he no longer in his place in the House of Commons?
41130Will you give me a note to him, and I will ask him to hand them over to you?"
41130Will you kindly examine it, and tell me if you recognise it as your handiwork?"
41130Will you sit down?"
41130Will you take''i m?
41130Will you tell me, as briefly as you like, and in your own time, what you know of your father''s habits?"
41130Would I take her place?
41130Would he come back to consciousness and be able to answer questions, or would those be his last words on earth?
41130Would it not be natural that, under such circumstances, he would come to you for advice?"
41130Would she come in and wait?
41130Would the young woman come back to- morrow, he wondered?
41130Would you like me to run through them?
41130Would you recognise his handwriting, if you saw it?"
41130You are staying the night, I hope?"
41130You attach some importance to it-- eh?"
41130You have failed, and do you know why?"
41130You have shown her into the drawing- room, I suppose?
41130You know of him, of course?"
41130You know, that was your first thought-- was it not?"
41130You love me a little?"
41130You smoke?
41130You will let me offer you some tea?"
41130You will let us be happy?"
41130he asked,"have you done anything in the Monkton mystery-- eh?"
7931A disturbance?
7931Ai n''t it in you? 7931 Ai n''t there any way of your making that infernal old tin soldier up at the State House lay his paws off our paving crew?"
7931All the waltzes for me, eh?
7931Amos, what are you waiting for?
7931Amos, what kind of a fool have you been making yourself with your orders?
7931And speaking of the calendar, Lana, may I have a peep at your dance- list?
7931And there''s nothing the matter with my muscle, is there?
7931And what did he say when he called you this time?
7931And what did he say?
7931And what have you been doing to stop''em, after all your promises of what you''d do?
7931And what say if you wait till then, Governor, to confer with the mayor-- if you really find that there is need of a conference?
7931And what''s the answer?
7931And you are sure she is not in the ballroom?
7931Any other gentlemen wish to offer more remarks? 7931 Anything stirring down- stairs?"
7931Are n''t you and Mayor Morrison friendly?
7931Are such humble persons as North and I are entitled to be let in on any details of your contract, Mister Boss- in- Chief?
7931Are you admitting now that you were wrong in the stand you took about the water- power and-- and-- well, about everything?
7931Are you as devilish green as you pretend to be, Blanchard? 7931 Are you going with that dress on?"
7931Are you grooming a man?
7931Are you putting that notion in your confounded report?
7931As a newsmonger, you say, do you, that minutes are valuable?
7931Billy, who else is there with the Governor?
7931Both plans meaning the same thing?
7931Breaking election laws to keep sore- heads smooth? 7931 Building up a political machine?"
7931Business in my line, you say, sir?
7931But did she talk high and flighty to you, bairnie?
7931But do I have your solemn promise, Senator Corson, that this gentleman will be returned to me by you at the earliest possible moment?
7931But is n''t Lana with you?
7931But sha''n''t I send in what Lanigan says?
7931But what are they trying to do up on Capitol Hill, sir? 7931 But what are you going to do about it?"
7931But what?
7931But why all the excitement? 7931 But why do you assume that attitude on account of what I told you?"
7931But why worry so much when the night is still young?
7931But you''re not intending to make him of any especial importance in affairs, are you? 7931 By whose permission?"
7931Come where?
7931Conference about_ what_?
7931Contrary- minded?
7931Corson, what''s going to be done with that blue- blazed understudy of Ananias?
7931Den vhere-- vhere is dot zertificate dot should show to Karl Trimbach dot he shall valk into der State House und sit on his seat? 7931 Did he condescend to intimate in what capacity he proposes to land on us this time?"
7931Did he say anything about coming?
7931Did you expect that I was going to join you and your mob of lawbreakers?
7931Do I get-- you?
7931Do n''t you know better than to tangle my lines when I''m playing a fish? 7931 Do n''t you know the difference between that and a fish- peddler''s horn?
7931Do n''t you realize that, according to the technical stand you take, you have no more official right in this Capitol than I have, just now?
7931Do n''t you realize what it means to have a United States Senator come to a formal conference?
7931Do ye allow such feckless loons to coom and beard ye in yer ain castle?
7931Do ye let whigmaleeries flimmer in yer noddle at a time like this?
7931Do ye think it''s all closed and that ye''re weel out of it?
7931Do you absolutely refuse to give me a courteous hearing?
7931Do you bromise me dot Karl Trimbach gets dot seat?
7931Do you dare to ignore these telegrams-- the opinions of the justices of the supreme judicial court of this state?
7931Do you dare to stand there and intimate that I have n''t got principle behind me? 7931 Do you dare, I say?"
7931Do you hear''em, Totten? 7931 Do you know exactly the provisions of the constitution relating to your office, sir?"
7931Do you mean to tell me that you''re going back for another turn among those jiu- jitsu experts?
7931Do you see any joke to this, Calvin?
7931Do you think I''m airy and notional and stuck up?
7931Do you think I''m posing as a know- it- all because I have been about in the world and have seen and heard?
7931Do you think for one minute that I believe all that Righteous Rollo rant?
7931Do you threaten?
7931Do you want me to keep the telegrams with the record? 7931 Do you work in this city?"
7931Does that settle it? 7931 Doris, what are you saying to me?"
7931Eh? 7931 Eh?"
7931Eh?
7931Exactly on the same lines?
7931Father, it''s wonderful-- perfectly wonderful, is n''t it?
7931Father, what''s the matter? 7931 For mercy''s sake, have n''t you been proving that you''re not afraid of him?"
7931Grabbed off for what?
7931Has n''t the gentleman anything to say about goats? 7931 Has your father asked you to talk to me on the subject of that business?"
7931Have n''t you joined your rabble yet, Morrison?
7931Have they been put to any test of their courage and reliability? 7931 Have you gone crazy over this protection- of- the- people idea?"
7931Have you heard something about it?
7931He asked you to talk to me, then?
7931He did n''t say anything, you tell me?
7931He does?
7931He faked all that stuff?
7931How about those cops?
7931How about three cheers for the boys?
7931How did it happen-- that you''re here, Lana?
7931How in the devil''s name could that be?
7931How much influence can he wield as an agitator, as he threatens to become?
7931How''s that, Mister Mayor?
7931How-- in what way?
7931How?
7931I happened to be in the rotunda when the--"How did you happen to be in the rotunda, sir-- past the guards?
7931I mean, has n''t she been with you?
7931I''d be carrying out my contract, would I, by disbanding that militia and opening this State House to the mob?
7931I-- I do n''t know,he stammered,"You''re not going back on your own statement about an angry man, are you?"
7931If one man and a settee can show up your soldiers in that fashion, Totten, what will a real affair do to them?
7931In politics? 7931 In what capaceety do you serve, Master Morrison?"
7931Is it peaceful?
7931Is it three cheers that your brother rattlesnakes are giving ye in the natural hissing way of''em?
7931Is it to be a hitch, as the gossip runs?
7931Is that the blood o''yer race speaking?
7931It has got to you, Lana-- this coming home again, has n''t it?
7931Just what is this_ people_ idea that you''re making so much of all of a sudden, Morrison? 7931 Keep''em out of the dirt for me, will you, brother?
7931Lick myself-- is that what you mean, sir?
7931Matthewson, what''s on your mind? 7931 May I be pardoned, Mrs. Stanton, for consulting my hostess''s card first?"
7931May I come in?
7931Morrison, did you say that? 7931 Need help, Commander?"
7931Not much like honest, real business-- this, eh, Andy?
7931Nothing to be hidden, then?
7931Now that you''re in politics for yourself, Stewart, you can see the point, ca n''t you?
7931Now you do n''t need any words, do you? 7931 Now, Bill the Bomber,"demanded Lanigan,"tell me and the bunch what''s the big idea of the arsenal, in a peaceful American city?"
7931Now, Captain, you''re in the office of the mayor of Marion, and the mayor officially asks you why the militia has been ordered out in his city?
7931Of what, sir?
7931Officer, do you know what part of the mill Mayor Morrison is in?
7931Oh, did n''t you?
7931On what ground, may I ask?
7931Orders-- my orders?
7931Outside of this petty mayor business, does Morrison cut any figure-- have any special power in state politics?
7931Partners how?
7931People be damned?
7931Picking out another politician for my special consideration, after what I have been through?
7931Promising what?
7931Reception, say you? 7931 Right down to the last technical letter of it?"
7931Rumors are prevalent, are they?
7931She ca''d wi''her father at the mill this day, eh? 7931 So private that I must n''t listen?
7931So? 7931 Something busted out in Patagonia needing the attention of a League of Nations army?"
7931Stewart Morrison, why do n''t you say something?
7931That''s North''s idea of that game he was talking about, is it?
7931Then why is Morrison so dangerous, if he''s only doing what you do?
7931Then you got a look outside?
7931They wo n''t take your word on the matter, you say? 7931 Until after it has been officially announced?"
7931Was I not justified in buying in all the public timber- lands at the going price?
7931Was Joe Lanigan in sight?
7931Was it necessary for you to do so much talking before you got a line on his opinions?
7931Well, Mister Public Works, how about the last lap of paving on McNamee Avenue? 7931 Well, what are they-- what are they?"
7931Well?
7931What about those soldiers and those machine- guns in there?
7931What am I to understand from that?
7931What did I tell you?
7931What did he say?
7931What do you find down below, Andy?
7931What do you mean?
7931What does it mean?
7931What excuse could they give for sending their snap opinions over the wire on the inquiry of a fool?
7931What has happened, Lana?
7931What have they been trying to put over with that militia, anyway?
7931What in blazes is that business? 7931 What in hell is the matter with us, anyway?"
7931What in the devil do you claim we are now?
7931What is it that''s in you?
7931What kind of a damnable fool has been giving off orders to those soldiers? 7931 What kind of a devilish basis does he think he''s been operating on?"
7931What legislation is contemplated under that report that you will submit?
7931What other kind of gossip would I be interested in, this day?
7931What the devil is this all about?
7931What the mischief ails''em, down here? 7931 What then?"
7931What''s amiss?
7931What''s going to be done with that report, Corson?
7931What''s it all about?
7931What''s it all about?
7931What''s on your mind, Jeff?
7931What''s that bull- headed fool been stirring up down- town?
7931What''s that devilish policeman doing at my door?
7931What''s the matter with you down there?
7931What''s the matter with your brains, Rellihan?
7931What''s wrong with you, Danny? 7931 What''s your name?"
7931What''s, all the row, Joe? 7931 What?
7931What? 7931 What?"
7931What?
7931Whaur''s the fire o''yer spunk, Stewart Morrison?
7931When was this?
7931Where are you going, Senator?
7931Where are you going?
7931Where do you get your appointment as general manager of the matter, Dorrie? 7931 Where is he right now?"
7931Where is he?
7931Where is my father? 7931 Where is this infernal folly of yours heading you?"
7931Where is your car?
7931Who called you?
7931Who else is there?
7931Who gave off such orders?
7931Who is taking those men from their work?
7931Who?
7931Why are they starting it now?
7931Why have a gang of politicians got to barricade our State House against the people?
7931Will Governor North tell those soldiers to shoot and kill?
7931Will you not drop the topic?
7931Will you not permit me to go in debt to you, madam?
7931Will you please step up here where I''ll not be obliged to shout at you?
7931Will you wait a moment, sir?
7931Word o''what?
7931You are sure of the right legislative committee, are you?
7931You crazy girl, what-- after that-- why-- what are you trying to do?
7931You do n''t expect that Governor North and myself are going to stand here and give you guaranties as to proposed legislation, do you?
7931You do n''t suppose that I''ll run away from the mice instead of after''em, do you?
7931You have heard things-- and still you allowed me to go on and empty my basket in front of him?
7931You have interviewed Mayor Morrison on the situation, have n''t you?
7931You have saved the state from disgracing itself, have n''t you? 7931 You have, eh?"
7931You hear that, do you, sir? 7931 You say you told him all your plans in full?"
7931You''d get to that leak and plug it mighty quick, would n''t you?
7931You''ll protect the people, eh? 7931 Afraid the reception- spread will be squeezed? 7931 Ah-- er-- do we require a countersign in order to get out of the building?
7931Ai n''t a spark of it in you?"
7931And the power has n''t been developed by the infernal, dear, protected people, has it?"
7931And why not another?"
7931And you do n''t misunderstand me any more, do you?"
7931Are n''t you going to say so, Stewart?"
7931Are they going to introduce legislation to abolish my commission and turn the whole water- power matter over to the public utilities commission?"
7931Are you and Lana formally engaged?"
7931Are you going to keep it?"
7931Are you going to order them to march out of this State House?"
7931Are you going to run for Governor next election?"
7931Are you naturalized?"
7931Are you still on the job?
7931Boys, you heard what I said, did n''t you?"
7931But I want to know now what_ you''re_ going to do?"
7931But can you tell me what this''people- partners''thing is?"
7931But do I have your co- operation in the name of law and order?"
7931But do you really think you can get into the State House?"
7931But if it''s to put the water- power of this state on a bigger and broader basis, you and the storage commission are with us, are n''t you?"
7931But the other orders hold good, do they, politeness or no politeness?"
7931But what I want to know is, can we depend on you to tend to Capitol Hill?
7931But what''s the big idea of the surprise party?"
7931Ca n''t you find the mayor of the city in a time like this?"
7931Ca n''t you go back to the old times-- and speak from your own soul?"
7931Can I tell''em that you''re still on the job?"
7931Can we open up to- morrow?
7931Can you?"
7931Corson?"
7931Could he do anything in a case like this?"
7931Coventry, what kind of a man is Morrison?"
7931Did n''t he preach to you on the text of that infernal people- partner notion of his?"
7931Did n''t he?"
7931Did you see Morrison rush to the Senator''s daughter?
7931Do I receive the same pardon?"
7931Do I seem forward?"
7931Do it after what he promised me in the way of co- operation for law and order?
7931Do n''t you hear that?"
7931Do ye see who''s listening?"
7931Do you get me?
7931Do you know, these fellows with poetic, chivalrous natures are hard boys to bring to reason in certain practical matters?"
7931Do you let a smirking ruler bluff all the courage of real men out of you?
7931Do you mean to tell me that there''s a man down there who did n''t recognize you-- who refused to allow you to pass without question?"
7931Do you promise me your aid and your co- operation?"
7931Do you think he can afford to be bothered with unfinished business?"
7931Do you think he is a coward and has run away?"
7931Do you think you can depend on them to keep out real intruders?"
7931Do you think you will need the officers on duty at your residence any longer, Senator Corson?"
7931Does Karl Trimbach his seat haf in der State House vhere der Socialists haf elected him?"
7931Does it mean what it seems to mean?"
7931Does n''t Duchesne''s battle to the death with a settee get even a grin?
7931Does the objecting gent down there in the corner need any further instruction from here, or shall I come down and whisper in his ear?"
7931Eh, Mister Mayor?
7931Eh, Mister Mayor?"
7931Go find out for me, will you, what the blue mischief they''re up to?"
7931Has any news come to you lately?"
7931Has he completely lost his mind, Senator Corson?"
7931Have n''t you anything really important to say, now that I''m giving you the floor?"
7931Have they been up against any actual threats from the outside, this evening?"
7931Have you any explanation to give me?"
7931Have you done that?"
7931Have you got''em smoothed down, according to our understanding?"
7931He''s an especially avaricious Scot, is n''t he?
7931How about your word to us in another matter?
7931How are we going to find out?"
7931How did you get in and who came with you?"
7931How do you dare to involve the judges?
7931How do you expect to make good that promise?"
7931How much chance do you think there is of starting a civil war among men who are laughing like that?"
7931How much is he lying?"
7931How much more shall I offer him?"
7931Humor me in a little conceit, wo n''t you?
7931I have been listening and--""Father, do you confess that you have been eavesdropping?"
7931I want to ask you-- while you have been away from me have you been reflecting on what I said?"
7931If some gent would like to hoot another hoot on that subject will he kindly step up here and hoot?"
7931In just what capacity do you appear here?"
7931Is he a heavy borrower?"
7931Is n''t he right?"
7931Is n''t that so?"
7931Is n''t that what you have done-- you yourself?"
7931Is that your idea of politics?"
7931Is there an actual and formal engagement, I ask?"
7931Is this trouble you speak of as imminent-- is it due to the question of letting certain members of the House and Senate take their seats to- morrow?"
7931It puts hell into a man, does n''t it, Peter?"
7931Jodrey Wadsworth Corson, on this day and date, is crowded with strictly new business?
7931Lana Corson, do n''t you know the difference between a reception and a political rally?"
7931Lana dear, why do n''t you come here and sit down and confide in a friend and assure her that you''re safe and sane from now on?"
7931Lass, are ye gone daffie wi''the rest?"
7931May I speak it?"
7931May n''t we let the matter stand till later?"
7931May we have a word with you?"
7931Morrison, have you turned Bolshevik?"
7931Morrison, what''s it all about, anyway?"
7931Morrison, you''re not advocating the soviet doctrine that the state can break existing contracts, are you?"
7931Morrison?"
7931Now are you going to spoil everything by dropping right back into the conventional, every- day way of doing things?
7931See?"
7931Shall I hand him over to you?"
7931Shall I hand''em the rifle- fire first or let loose with the machine- guns?"
7931Shall you follow the constitution absolutely, in every detail?"
7931She paused in her walk, hesitated, and then blurted,"What part is Stewart Morrison playing in all this?"
7931So you think I''m wholly selfish, do you, Despeaux?"
7931So, how about her New England conscience in the matter of a promise in love?"
7931Some other gentleman like to ask a question?"
7931Sounds better than howls of a crowd bored by machine- gun bullets, eh?
7931Statute law, election law?"
7931Strike hands with a ringleader of a riot-- do it under a violated roof?
7931Such boys have been showing their mettle in one city in this country, have n''t they?
7931Suppose you boys keep all quiet and calm for the good name of the city and let me find out how the thing stands?"
7931Take that attitude toward a mob in his own city?
7931Talk it over after you have been reckless enough to spoil everything?
7931The Senator is on to his job, but did you see Morrison''s mug when he had to leave the girl?"
7931The question is, should I believe anything he said?"
7931The voice that inquired"Who''s there?"
7931This Morrison man is n''t leaving you any illusions in regard to himself, is he?"
7931Ticketed as what, Brother Despeaux?"
7931Under those circumstances, what view would Miss Lana Corson take of the man who had stayed in Marion?
7931Warson is making a demonstration, is he?
7931Was it anything-- Did you want to speak to me?"
7931What are you putting out yourself this morning in the way of statements?"
7931What did he mean by saying that I ought to be ashamed of myself?
7931What did the mayor say, you ask?
7931What do I get out of this prospective, bigger life, Lana?"
7931What do you expect me to do?"
7931What do you want?"
7931What does it all mean?"
7931What else have you on your mind?"
7931What else?"
7931What else?"
7931What else?"
7931What for?
7931What happened?"
7931What has happened below, I ask you?"
7931What has happened?"
7931What if he should still be in love with Miss Lana, spite of her being away among the great folks all this long time?"
7931What insult did I offer you?"
7931What is it?
7931What is the idol?"
7931What is the trouble at the State House?"
7931What say if you come along with me and pick up a few facts?
7931What say, Governor North?"
7931What trouble is he in?"
7931What we want to know is, what about up- town-- up on Capitol Hill?"
7931What would happen if I did n''t keep my head?"
7931What would you do if you happened to glance out of your office window and saw a leak spurting big as a lead- pencil from the base of the Conawin dam?
7931What''s behind''em?
7931What''s it all about?"
7931What''s the big notion in keeping it so secret?"
7931What''s the contract?"
7931What''s the matter with all of you?"
7931What''s the matter with throwing wide the doors to- morrow and saying''Come along in, people, and we''ll talk this over''?"
7931What''s the use of all the full- dress nonsense?"
7931What''s your dose in this case?"
7931What''s yours?"
7931What?"
7931Whaur''s yer een for the tickit gillie?"
7931Where are you, Senator Corson?"
7931Where do ye work, or do n''t ye work?"
7931Where is your private office?"
7931Where''s the mayor of Marion?"
7931Who is he?"
7931Who is the lunatic who is threatening my father and bringing disgrace on this state?"
7931Why ca n''t they use business horse- sense?"
7931Why do n''t you do it?
7931Why don''d dey send it?"
7931Why not keep things smooth?"
7931Why should I talk about such things to anybody?"
7931Why should n''t I lobby for the people for nothing?"
7931Why should n''t he have his seat?"
7931Why should n''t you be as candid to me as you seemed to be with those men when you were talking to them?
7931Why the infernal blazes do n''t you wake up?"
7931Will you allow me to ask a question, Commander Lanigan?"
7931Will you please wait a moment while I glance at this?"
7931Will you send General Totten below to investigate?"
7931Will you take my word and let it stand that way between us?"
7931Wo n''t you allow me?
7931Wo n''t you come back here to the table?"
7931Wo n''t you take some advice, Lana?"
7931Wonderful, is n''t it-- admission like that?
7931You are employed by him?"
7931You are n''t going to deny''em a square deal-- you do n''t mean that, do you, sir?"
7931You have n''t any silly notions, have you?
7931You saw it go, did n''t you?"
7931You''d know the leak would be as big as a hogshead in a few minutes, would n''t you?"
7931You''re ready to seize every opportunity to make a grand success in business, the way the great men do, are n''t you?"
7931declared Mrs. Stanton, aghast,"Have n''t you had enough experience with mobs for one evening?"
7931what do you mean by asking me such fool questions?"
7374''Pretty angel,''they would say,''why do you stay all alone in this dreary place?'' 7374 A civil service, a little tariff reform-- that is enough to inaugurate the reign of honor, truth, and justice?"
7374About what, Miss Thorn?
7374According to you they were right, were they not?
7374All that, of course, you know,said Miss Thorn, in answer to some remark of John''s,"but what sort of things do you really care for?"
7374And Sam Wyndham?
7374And an American?
7374And for that aim,said Joe, slowly,"you would sacrifice everything?"
7374And have you changed your mind?
7374And pray, who are the half dozen people who procure us the honor of your presence?
7374And where should we all be without principles, Mr. Ballymolloy? 7374 And you do not want to marry him?
7374Angry? 7374 Any answer?"
7374Any one else?
7374Are there any nice rides?
7374Are you going away?
7374Are you going down the hill?
7374Are you going to begin?
7374Are you not coming?
7374Are you really quite sure you have not offended her?
7374Because he has not got the white fur?
7374Because if it is you might-- Sarah, I think you could tell Miss Josephine that Mr. Surbiton is in the parlor, could not you?
7374Besides, free trade has nothing to do with Democratic principles, has it? 7374 Besides, you know, this is-- you are really going away?"
7374Business here?
7374But I mean, how does he strike you?
7374But I suppose it is useless to ask you for a dance?
7374But I thought you said when the House and the Senate did not agree, the General Court met next day and elected a senator?
7374But do you know exactly what you want?
7374But do you like it?
7374But has he no defects at all? 7374 But have you any reason to think it might be the truth?"
7374But it is uncertain, then?
7374But of course lots of people go out to see her, do they not?
7374But then it is what he said about that ridiculous Navigation Act that you object to?
7374But what is the use of friends if they do not take a part in one''s quarrels?
7374But when do people shoot and ride?--do they ever hunt?
7374But where is the kingdom?
7374But who is to decide just how much belongs to each man?
7374But you are glad, are you not?
7374But you are not an iron man, now, are you?
7374But you will not, will you? 7374 But, Ronald,"retorted Joe laughing,"if you were desperately in love with some one else, how could you still be just as fond of me?"
7374But-- by the bye, this is the season here, is not it?
7374By the bye,he added with a smile,"Vancouver takes it all very comfortably, does he not?
7374Charlie Brandon''s daughter? 7374 Cold, you think?"
7374Cream and sugar, Miss Schenectady?
7374Did I not make it clear to you, Ronald? 7374 Did I?
7374Did I? 7374 Did I?"
7374Did either of you ever know a man called Vancouver?
7374Did you? 7374 Do you believe what he said was true?"
7374Do you dare to stand there and tell me that you are Mr. Harrington''s friend?
7374Do you know how to skate?
7374Do you know,Joe began presently,"when your cable came I felt very guilty at having written to you that you might come?"
7374Do you know,he said,"there are times when I regret it all very much?
7374Do you know?
7374Do you mean to say he has lost the election?
7374Do you mean to say that is Miss Thorn?
7374Do you mind very much, dearest?
7374Do you not feel as though we were much more like brother and sister now?
7374Do you not think I am right?
7374Do you not think it is possible sometimes to aim too high? 7374 Do you still go to Sherwood often?
7374Do you think I can ever be bored when I come to see you, Joe?
7374Do you think it would bore you dreadfully to live in the country?
7374Do you?
7374Does it make very much difference?
7374Excuse the anxiety I show,he said simply,"but may I ask whether Miss Thorn is at home?"
7374Glad? 7374 Gone?"
7374Hallo, Harrington, how are you?
7374Has anything gone wrong?
7374Has anything gone wrong?
7374Has he figured it out?
7374Have you become reconciled to our methods of amusement, Miss Thorn?
7374Have you read it all? 7374 He made himself pretty comfortable with Sybil, did he not?
7374How are you?
7374How can you possibly say such a thing?
7374How do you do, Miss Thorn?
7374How do you mean?
7374How does she come to know?
7374How so?
7374How-- like this?
7374I dare say; all that about making a Civil Service, I suppose?
7374I suppose he has come over to marry his cousin-- has not he?
7374I think you are inclined to make it personal?
7374I? 7374 I?
7374I?
7374I?
7374If it is not a rude question, did not that dress come from Egypt?
7374In what way?
7374Indeed?
7374Is it anything very interesting?
7374Is it nice, like that, skating about in couples?
7374Is it not just perfectly splendid?
7374Is it not the most crowded supper you ever saw?
7374Is it possible that I can be so heartless?
7374Is not she beautiful?
7374Is that ironical?
7374It was very fine, was it not, Miss Thorn?
7374Joe,he said at last, with something of his usual calm, though he was still red,"of course you are really perfectly serious?
7374Joe-- do not you think it would be very pleasant to be always like this?
7374Joe? 7374 Joe?
7374May I give you my arm, Miss Thorn?
7374May I have another cup?
7374May I tell you something?
7374Mind? 7374 Miss Schenectady?"
7374Miss Thorn, what can I get you?
7374Mr. Harrington-- did you read that article about you, the day after the skating party?
7374Must I go over it all again?
7374My aunt?
7374Never at any other time?
7374Never?
7374No, really? 7374 No, there is nothing wrong,"John answered presently;"what made you think so?"
7374No-- how could I be? 7374 No; what was it?"
7374No? 7374 No?
7374Not quite?
7374Not really?
7374Nothing wrong, Joe?
7374Now Mr. Harrington, you''ll not believe that I could go to the House and vote against my own party, surely, will you now?
7374Oh, are you? 7374 Oh, bother the carpet, my dear,"said Sam good- naturedly;"tell me about that young fellow-- what is his name?--Surbiton, is not it?"
7374Oh-- are you going too, Joe?
7374One lump of sugar?
7374Perhaps you find it cold here?
7374Poor little thing-- she has nobody else belonging to her, has she?
7374Really? 7374 Really?"
7374Really?
7374Really?
7374Really?
7374Really?
7374Really?
7374See here-- is this all right?
7374Seldom; why should I? 7374 Shall I ever see him?"
7374Shall I see you to- morrow night at Mrs. Wyndham''s dinner?
7374She is your aunt, I presume, Miss Brandon?
7374She must have been very ill; what has been the matter?
7374So you are going to condole with him? 7374 Surely you do n''t think I doubt that, Mr. Harrington?
7374Sybil, dear,Mrs. Wyndham began again, presently,"why did you refuse Vancouver?
7374Tell me, Ronald,said Joe, insisting a little,"how is Sybil?"
7374Tell me,said Joe, when Pocock was gone,"do you like Mr. Vancouver?
7374Tell me-- for God''s sake tell me,John said in low, trembling tones,"have I hurt you?
7374The matter? 7374 Then he has really lost the election?"
7374Then what do you believe? 7374 Then why do you defend him?"
7374Then you do not believe it all?
7374Then, if you do,she said with some hesitation--"if you do, this is good- by, is it not?"
7374They are pretty enough for anything, are they not?
7374This is better than the Music Hall, is it not?
7374Thorn here?
7374Was I?
7374Was he very angry?
7374Was it anything so very bad?
7374Was there? 7374 Well,"said Sam Wyndham to his wife when everybody was gone, and he had lit a big cigar;"well, it was a pleasant kind of an evening, was not it?"
7374Well?
7374Well?
7374Well?
7374What are''things''?
7374What did you think when you got my telegram?
7374What difference? 7374 What do you go to Paris for?"
7374What do you mean?
7374What do you say?
7374What do you think about him, Miss Brandon?
7374What do you think it was, Joe, dear?
7374What for, Miss Thorn?
7374What has become of those girls?
7374What has he done?
7374What is it that you regret so much?
7374What is it then?
7374What is it?
7374What is that?
7374What is the latest news?
7374What is the matter, Joe?
7374What is the news about the election, Sybil?
7374What is the result of all this? 7374 What is the story?"
7374What is truth-- in this instance?
7374What kind of novels do you like best?
7374What makes you say that?
7374What other side?
7374What should I do here, in a strange place, where I know so few people?
7374What sort of a fellow is he?
7374What sort of a journey did you have?
7374What style? 7374 What time is it in Boston?"
7374What, Aunt Zoà «?
7374What? 7374 What?"
7374What?
7374Whatever is the General Court?
7374When did he come-- where has he been all this time?
7374When do they get to be real?
7374When is he coming?
7374When is she coming?
7374When you called me? 7374 When you have quite done praising the tea, will you please tell me what you believe about Mr. Harrington''s speech?"
7374Where-- where are you going?
7374Where_ did_ you get that beautiful fur, my dear? 7374 Which do you like better, Miss Brandon, boating in Newport or skating on Jamaica Pond?"
7374Which paper?
7374Which? 7374 Who are''ourselves''--exactly?"
7374Who is Mrs. Wyndham, to begin with?
7374Who is Ronald?
7374Who is exaggerating now?
7374Who is that?
7374Who is this Irishman?
7374Who?
7374Who?
7374Who?--what?
7374Why do n''t you marry her?
7374Why do you ask?
7374Why do you say politics are dirty work?
7374Why in the world should it injure me?
7374Why not marry Sibyl Brandon to John Harrington?
7374Why not?
7374Why not?
7374Why not?
7374Why not?
7374Why should I not believe you?
7374Why should not people be perfectly natural, and show when they feel anything, or be cold when they do not?
7374Why''of course''?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Why?
7374Will you not come and dine too, to- morrow night?
7374Will you not speak to me? 7374 Will you please take me back to my aunt?"
7374Will you please tell me who he is?
7374Will you take my plate? 7374 Without asking Miss Brandon?"
7374Without shooting back? 7374 Wo n''t you call me Joe, aunt Zoruiah?
7374Would it not?
7374Would it please you? 7374 Would you not like to take a turn, Miss Thorn?"
7374Yes, dear?
7374Yes; but how could you have time to look about and recognize people? 7374 Yes?
7374Yes?
7374Yes?
7374Yes?
7374You and my cousin are very intimate, Miss Brandon, I believe?
7374You do not care to be happy, you only care to be useful?
7374You have a great many friends, have you not?
7374You have been away again?
7374You have seen him?
7374You know how he always talks about John Harrington?
7374You mean about the senatorship?
7374You think I may be right?
7374You think, perhaps, that some man of your own party may be elected who will not turn out to be honest?
7374You were in England most of the time, were you not?
7374You were not hidden under the seats of the sleigh, were you?
7374You will be senator, of course?
7374You, the writer of articles in the''Daily Standard,''calling him a fool and a charlatan? 7374 Youth and beauty?
7374A set of Irishmen in the Legislature who are not sure they can manage to vote for a Democratic senator?"
7374About what?"
7374Ah, John Harrington, what have you done?
7374And do you mean to tell me that you like these people who rush madly about the country and hunt in summer, and those sort of things?"
7374And then?"
7374And will you please to tell me what you will do about free trade, when you''re in the Senate, sir?"
7374And yet, how has this campaign been hitherto conducted?
7374Anybody know?"
7374Are not you?"
7374Are we to strut and plume ourselves upon our unhampered freedom, while we act like slaves?
7374Are you angry?"
7374Are you going to fight it out?
7374Are you quite sure?"
7374Ballymolloy?"
7374Between what?"
7374But I do n''t expect that interests you much?"
7374But how was it possible that in all these years she had never before understood that she could not marry him?
7374But if you did, you would go against him, would not you?"
7374But in any case, I am exceedingly obliged to you for the information"--"You are not angry?"
7374But now the sun is over the hill, Sybil dear, is it not?"
7374But the city"--"You do not like the city?"
7374But what do you mean to do now?
7374But what kind do you like best?
7374But when is the election to come off?"
7374But where do you think our power comes from?
7374But why?"
7374But you are not?"
7374By the bye, do you know you have a fanatic admirer in Sybil Brandon?"
7374Can I do anything at all to help you?"
7374Can a man be strong if he has an internal disease, or is his strength any use to him if his arms and legs are out of joint?
7374Could you tell me, if it is not a rude question, why so many people here are never certain of anything?
7374Dark?"
7374Did she give any especial reason why she would inevitably refuse me?"
7374Did you ever read Bulwer''s''Coming Race''?"
7374Do n''t you see?
7374Do n''t you think yon might say something to him that would be of some use?
7374Do not you think so?"
7374Do you believe that such ideas as you tell me of are really and seriously held by any body of men?"
7374Do you care for that sort of thing, Miss Thorn?"
7374Do you know, I do not think men really care so much; do you?"
7374Do you mean in regard to Vancouver?"
7374Do you mind lighting those candles?
7374Do you not believe me?"
7374Do you not think so?"
7374Do you remember Sybil Brandon?"
7374Do you remember his flirtation with Sybil Brandon at Saratoga and then at Newport?"
7374Do you remember?"
7374Do you think we are much further from it now than we were in 1860?
7374Do you think we were far from it in 1876?
7374Does he go to Paris to convert the French, or to glean materials for converting other people?"
7374Dreadful weather, is not it?"
7374Go and try and cheer her up a little, ca n''t you?"
7374Harrington?"
7374Harrington?"
7374Harrington?"
7374Harrington?"
7374Harrington?"
7374Have we not seen all this before?
7374Have you heard from home?"
7374Have you nothing else to do?"
7374He would come to her so full of hope and gladness; how could she tell him she did not love him?
7374He would say-- what would he say?
7374How about withdrawing Harrington?"
7374How are you, Joe dear?
7374How do you do?
7374How is Miss Thorn?"
7374How is Sybil?"
7374How is"--"What steamer did you come by?"
7374I am certain it was all done by some horrid stealing, or something, now, was not it?"
7374I am rich, Ronald-- you did not know it?"
7374I mean, you have thought about it?"
7374I never really meant it; did I?"
7374I think you must be naturally fond of fighting"--"Fond of a row?"
7374I told you so, do you remember?"
7374I''m in the iron business, Mr. Harrington, and you wo n''t be after thinking me such an all- powerful galoot as to cut my own nose off, will you?"
7374Is any man so despicable, so lost to honor, that in such a case he will put aside the welfare of a nation for the miserable sake of party popularity?
7374Is everything rechristened in that way?
7374Is her mother dead too?"
7374Is it all over?"
7374Is it all true?"
7374Is it not?"
7374Is it too much that I ask?"
7374Is not she the most extraordinary creature?"
7374Is that it?"
7374Is that true?"
7374Is the carriage there?"
7374Is there any one among us all who would not give up his individual views about a local election rather than see the country go to pieces?
7374Is there nothing in the world worth while save that?"
7374Is this all that so many millions of free citizens can do for the public good and for public harmony?
7374Is this to be the life of our Republic in future?
7374It is not such a bad place after all, is it?"
7374It speaks volumes for the characters of both of them, does it not?"
7374Now is not that just about the queerest thing you ever heard of?
7374Now the question is, who owns Patrick?
7374Now, do not you think, Mr. Ballymolloy, that all this talk about free trade is great nonsense?"
7374One could not live without lots of society, could one?"
7374Or did you think it was not worth while to disturb your peace of mind for anything so trivial?"
7374Orators always study their speeches, with all the gestures and that, before a glass, do n''t they?"
7374Perhaps you could bring us a little cake, Sarah?
7374Promise me, will you not?"
7374Shall I?"
7374Should he?
7374So you came on right away from New York without stopping?"
7374Splendid ice, is it not?"
7374Surbiton?"
7374Surbiton?"
7374Surbiton?"
7374Sybil bent down and kissed her soft hair, and whispered gently in her ear,--"Was it very hard, dear?"
7374That is fair, is not it?"
7374That is true, is it not?
7374That sort of thing?"
7374That was graceful, was it not?"
7374The English girl?"
7374The fact is, I was so anxious-- so very anxious to"--"What hotel are you at here?"
7374The question is broadly, what effect will be produced by suddenly throwing eight or ten millions of English money into an American enterprise?"
7374The sad ones, or those that end well?"
7374Then turning to Vancouver, she added,"Why should I send you away?"
7374Vancouver?"
7374Vancouver?"
7374Vancouver?"
7374Vancouver?"
7374Vancouver?"
7374Vancouver?"
7374We all know about him, I expect?"
7374We are the greatest nation on earth-- I suppose you have heard that?"
7374Well, our friend is not elected, anyway"--"Has Mr. Harrington been defeated?"
7374Were you there?"
7374What are the great merchants doing who owned those fleets?
7374What are they so angry about?"
7374What did you think?"
7374What does anybody go abroad for?"
7374What have you been doing with yourself?"
7374What is he?"
7374What is power?
7374What is the use?
7374What must inevitably happen?
7374What possible right could she have to say such things?
7374What time?"
7374Where are the fleets of noble ships that lay side by side along the great docks, the ships that did half the carrying trade of the world?
7374Where are the great merchantmen that used to sail so grandly away to the East and that came home so richly laden?
7374Where is the real difference?
7374Where was the use?
7374Where would all beauty and sweetness be found among the thorny bushes and the withering old shrubs and the rotting weeds, were it not for you?
7374Who was he?"
7374Whom did she tell you about?"
7374Why are you going away so suddenly?"
7374Why do n''t you go and lie down before dinner?"
7374Why do you ask especially?"
7374Why do you ask?"
7374Why had it come over her so suddenly too?
7374Why should it?"
7374Why should we think about it now?
7374Why?
7374Will you not give to me some word-- some hope?
7374Will you please give this cup to Miss Schenectady?"
7374Will you please take me back to my aunt?"
7374Will you tell me, Joe?
7374Would any man be such a coward as to be afraid to change his mind in order to prevent another Rebellion, another Civil War?
7374Would it?"
7374Would you like to go for a walk?"
7374Wyndham?"
7374You always like"--"Of course you have heard about Harrington?"
7374You are great friends, are you not?"
7374You are not vexed, are you?"
7374You do not mind my having asked, do you?"
7374You do not mind telling me, do you?"
7374You do not mind, Joe, do you?"
7374You do not suppose I would mention such a publication in my house?"
7374You have been to see Mrs. Wyndham, then?"
7374You know who his opponent is, I suppose?"
7374You will always remember that, will you not?"
7374You, who have done your very best to defeat him in this election?
7374_ Vril_, and that sort of thing, you mean?
7374but then there were no men, and so you could n''t have been, could you?
7374cried Mrs. Wyndham;"you are not in love with the man yourself, are you, my dear?"
7374ejaculated Ronald,"and who is Harrington?"
7374exclaimed Joe, starting a little nervously,"have you come up?
7374he asked,"or shall we devise something different from the everlasting sleighing and five o''clock tea, and dinner parties and''dancing classes''?"
7374or are we to act like free men, exerting our united forces in one harmonious body for the immediate good of the whole country?
7374or''Perhaps this is New York?''
7374why should I be vexed?
40834A daughter?
40834A ward in Chancery, I suppose?
40834All of it?
40834Am I to understand that you wish to pay me compliments, Miss Mortimer?
40834And I am the woman, of course?
40834And all that philosophy is directed against me?
40834And are none safe for me?
40834And by what means are you able to get them secretly out of the country?
40834And do you chance to be acquainted with a woman named Mortimer-- a young woman, Muriel Mortimer?
40834And especially to Vienna, I presume?
40834And for what reason, pray?
40834And for what reason, pray?
40834And have you discovered nothing of her birth, or who she is?
40834And have you really no idea whatever as to the nature of the secret?
40834And he brought you some bad news? 40834 And how do you know that?"
40834And how much would it cost me?
40834And if I did-- if I allowed you to strive on my behalf? 40834 And if I did-- what then?"
40834And if I live you will remain as witness of my agony, and of my degradation?
40834And if I married this fair unknown, what then?
40834And if I promise, what do you promise me in exchange?
40834And if a woman pays me that compliment, is it not a misfortune for her?
40834And is every woman who glances prettily at a man from behind her fan, or chats to a fellow in a conservatory, to be condemned?
40834And is it this secret which prevents you from making the compact I have just suggested?
40834And is that elderly woman with white hair Lady Meldrum? 40834 And may I not go with you?"
40834And now?
40834And that is?
40834And the Embassy in London that is aware of the truth is not in Chesham Place?
40834And the man? 40834 And the only relic of the bygone romance is that lock of hair?
40834And there exists somewhere or other a document which inculpates Dudley Chisholm?
40834And what followed?
40834And what is that?
40834And what is that?
40834And what kind of double game is Lady Richard playing?
40834And what may your business be with me?
40834And what more?
40834And what was her answer?
40834And when people have forgotten-- then you will return to me? 40834 And who has been putting all these absurd ideas into your head, my dear Dudley?"
40834And why do n''t you, Dudley?
40834And why do you wish to speak with me? 40834 And why not?"
40834And will you not promise to follow it?
40834And yet you come here to- night and ask me to take you to the Duchess''s?
40834And you absolutely refuse to accept the alternative?
40834And you are also in the service of the Signorina Mortimer?
40834And you are aware of the nature of this secret, which, according to what you tell me, must some day or other bring about his utter downfall?
40834And you are really Captain Cator?
40834And you believe them?
40834And you decline to reconsider them?
40834And you destroyed the despatch I sent you to Wroxeter?
40834And you fear that the teacup tittle- tattle of my enemies may endanger your official position and retard your advancement, eh?
40834And you have not seen him for some years?
40834And you refuse to tell me its nature?
40834And you will never desert me-- never? 40834 And you will tell me absolutely nothing?"
40834And you wish every one to know that we have quarrelled?
40834And your determination is never to see me?
40834And your message? 40834 Annoyed by my actions, or by my words?"
40834Are n''t you going to bed, sir?
40834Are you certain that Mayne Lennox went abroad?
40834Are you quite certain it is to- night?
40834Are you quite certain that it was official, and did not concern yourself?
40834At Fernhurst? 40834 Because you mistrust me?"
40834But before we go further may I not know who it is I have the pleasure of addressing?
40834But dare I face exposure?
40834But have n''t you met their ward, Muriel Mortimer? 40834 But how came you here at this hour?"
40834But how can she have learnt my secret?
40834But how could they be?
40834But not too queer to go to the Duchess''s ball?
40834But surely none have?
40834But this woman who-- well, who is attracted towards me? 40834 But whatever made you ask such a question?"
40834But who is she?
40834But who were her parents?
40834But why are these men, whoever they are, watching me? 40834 But why did you burn it?"
40834But why trouble your head about me?
40834But why? 40834 But you can not cast me off, Dudley?"
40834But you have told me many other things of a delicate nature concerning yourself-- why may I not know this, and help you to bear your trouble?
40834But you''ve done now-- haven''t you?
40834Ca n''t you see this coldness of yours is driving me to despair-- killing me? 40834 Ca n''t you tell me your business now?"
40834Can not you tell me more regarding the plot? 40834 Can you direct me to the mutual friend at whose rooms you met him, for he might possibly be able to tell us his whereabouts?"
40834Can you honestly and truthfully say before your Maker that you entertain no love for Lady Richard-- that she is never in your thoughts?
40834Captain Cator, I believe?
40834Certain? 40834 Confession?"
40834Could a really smart woman possess any nice sense of honour?
40834Could he say otherwise?
40834Did he say any nice things of me?
40834Did he say when he had met me?
40834Did she explain to you the manner in which the truth had been revealed?
40834Did you never think of it in the past?
40834Do you happen to know that fellow''s name?
40834Do you know absolutely nothing more concerning her?
40834Even if it must be as you have said, surely it is unnecessary to exhibit your heart upon your sleeve in public?
40834Fernhurst is comparatively modern, is it not?
40834Folly?--you call my love folly, Dudley?
40834For how many years?
40834For what reason?
40834From Lady Richard-- eh?
40834From Stockbridge, or one of the other Ministers, I suppose?
40834Has it really ended?
40834Have n''t you been out?
40834Have you heard anything of the Meldrums?
40834Have you received no further despatch from Vienna?
40834He did n''t say they were important, or make any remark?
40834He discussed my merits before we met at the duchess''s, I presume?
40834He gambles at Monte Carlo, I suppose?
40834He was n''t a foreigner?
40834Her name?
40834How can I allow your memory to pass from me when for so many years you have been my all in all?
40834How can I be sorrowful when I know that I possess your love?
40834How can I? 40834 How can you hope to rescue me?"
40834How did the signore know when I have only spoken in my faulty English?
40834How did you first become acquainted with this estimable pair, Claudia? 40834 How do you know that?"
40834How do you know?
40834How?
40834How?
40834How?
40834How?
40834However much you may despise me for my frivolity and vanity, you surely do not think me capable of betraying your confidence, do you?
40834I beg the signore a thousand pardons, but may I be permitted to have a parolina[ little word] with him?
40834I wonder what''s on his mind?
40834I wonder why?
40834I''m in an awful state-- aren''t I? 40834 If she were here I wonder what would be her advice?
40834In that case you must believe that, even though I possess all the defects which you have enumerated, I nevertheless love you?
40834In what manner has she been reckless?
40834In what way does her parentage concern either you or me?
40834Is it possible that they, a most respectable family, can actually be aware of this woman''s fraud?
40834Is that you, Dudley?
40834Is the matter serious?
40834It has nothing to do with any woman who has come into your life?
40834It will be used for a political purpose, you mean?
40834Love you, Claudia?
40834Marucci?
40834May I ask under what circumstances you met this person?
40834May I ask what is your object in discovering him?
40834Mentioned me?
40834Muriel? 40834 Now, tell me honestly, is St. Petersburg the capital you refer to?"
40834Object? 40834 Of what?"
40834Of what?
40834Of what?
40834Oh, are n''t they? 40834 Oh, she''s a ward, is she?"
40834On what occasion?
40834Our reputations? 40834 Perhaps?"
40834Really? 40834 Really?"
40834Remember them?
40834Sent by whom?
40834Shall I continue to speak frankly?
40834Shall I leave her a letter confessing all and asking forgiveness?
40834Shall I tell you at what cost?
40834Shall I tell you one thing?
40834Shall I tell you the actual truth?
40834Shall I write to Claudia?
40834She dresses too well to suit your old- fashioned tastes, eh? 40834 Slow at the telephone, quick at the keyhole, eh, Parsons?"
40834Something about her?
40834Something very confidential, then?
40834Surely Wroxeter is as free as Charles Street, is n''t it?
40834Surely the truth can not possibly be known? 40834 Tell me, then,"he demanded at last,"what do you advise?
40834Ten thousand pounds, eh?
40834The Duchess''s ball? 40834 The Grand- Duke?"
40834The world should, I think, know, for your own sake? 40834 Then I am actually forgiven?"
40834Then I am unwelcome here?
40834Then Lady Meldrum gave no reason why Muriel was her husband''s ward?
40834Then he is acquainted with you?
40834Then if that is so, dear, why not be perfectly frank and tell me the reason of your sadness?
40834Then if you consider the matter of sufficient importance, why not ask Lady Meldrum herself?
40834Then if you know, Dudley, why do n''t you take my advice and cut her?
40834Then it still exists?
40834Then she is with them?
40834Then since you hold me in such esteem, why not act in my interests?
40834Then we are to be enemies?
40834Then what is your private opinion?
40834Then why do you refuse to repeat your promise, when you know, Dudley, that I love you?
40834Then you actually mean what you''ve said?
40834Then you believe in what is really proved?
40834Then you do n''t believe that I really have within my heart one atom of real affection for you?
40834Then you have already endeavoured to find out?
40834Then you have seen him?
40834Then you know something distinctly to her detriment?
40834Then you really intend to abandon me?
40834Then you really intend to prevent me?
40834Then you, Signor Marucci, are really my friend?
40834Then-- well, to put it plainly-- you believe all these scandalous tales that have been circulated about me of late? 40834 This is a rather unusual hour for a visit, is it not?"
40834To Muriel?
40834To go to her? 40834 To go where?"
40834To see me-- at this hour? 40834 To speak quite candidly you intend to blackmail me-- eh?
40834To whom?
40834To whom?
40834Was Muriel with her at the bazaar?
40834We are friends-- very old friends-- surely you can at least tell me the truth?
40834We have been-- close friends, shall I say? 40834 Well, Parsons, anything more?"
40834Well, and if they have?
40834Well, and what of that? 40834 Well, and what then?"
40834Well, is it not true that this foreigner was with you so constantly that it became a matter of serious comment?
40834Well, what do you want?
40834Well?
40834Well?
40834Were no instructions given you as to the mode in which I should escape? 40834 Were you ever acquainted with a man named Lennox?"
40834What are the allegations? 40834 What did I say?
40834What do you know of her?
40834What do you mean? 40834 What do you mean?"
40834What do you mean?
40834What do you think of little Muriel Mortimer? 40834 What kind of man?"
40834What matters? 40834 What reputation has either of us to lose?"
40834What secrets have you from me? 40834 What statements are made?"
40834What tales?
40834What the dickens do you mean, speaking in enigmas like this? 40834 What will the world say of me, I wonder?"
40834What woman?
40834What''s her name?
40834What''s that you''re so careful to burn?
40834What, the young fellow now speaking to Lady Meldrum? 40834 What?
40834What? 40834 What?
40834Whatever is in your mind? 40834 Whatever strange ideas are you entertaining, Claudia?"
40834Where are they now?
40834Who and what is she that you should be her intimate friend? 40834 Who is taking an interest in my movements?"
40834Who told you?
40834Who was the culprit? 40834 Who was the lady who accompanied her ladyship?
40834Who''s she?
40834Why between ourselves?
40834Why did n''t you answer?
40834Why did you do so? 40834 Why do n''t you tell me what is the matter?
40834Why do n''t you tell me?
40834Why do you speak of Mam''zelle Mortimer?
40834Why folly? 40834 Why not make full confession to her?"
40834Why should I be? 40834 Why should we?
40834Why, Parsons? 40834 Why, surely you keep a note of your engagements, or Wrey does for you?
40834Why, whatever is the matter with you, Dudley? 40834 Why, whatever is the matter?
40834Why? 40834 Why?"
40834Why?
40834Why?
40834Why?
40834Why?
40834Why?
40834Will they declare that I was a coward?
40834Will you make me your wife?
40834Will you not have one last dance with me, if only as a tribute to the old happiness?
40834Will you not promise me, your oldest man friend, to cut all these people and return to the simple, dignified life you led when Dick was still alive? 40834 Will you swear that?"
40834With whom?
40834Yes,he said,"a question to which you gave a very neat, but altogether unintelligible reply-- eh?
40834Yes,she answered,"that is only too true?
40834You are actually one of Cator''s agents?
40834You are enjoying it?
40834You are jealous-- eh?
40834You are mine, Dudley, and you will ever remain so-- won''t you?
40834You came here to spy upon me?
40834You desire that it should end?
40834You had never met her, or known her before?
40834You have been in this room the whole time?
40834You have heard my words, and witnessed all my actions?
40834You intend to leave me?
40834You know that we love each other, so what''s the use of kicking against the pricks? 40834 You know the object of my visit to Penge, eh?"
40834You know, then, that I intend to drink the contents of that glass and end my life?
40834You only tell me that we can not marry, that is all? 40834 You prefer the revelations that I intend to make?"
40834You promised not to divulge the direction in which danger lies?
40834You really love me, Dudley?
40834You refuse to tell me more?
40834You signed the receipt?
40834You surely do n''t mean that I have changed towards you?
40834You will lose no time in visiting the house indicated upon the card, will you?
40834You''re not so young as you used to be, eh?
40834You''ve both spoken as friends, and I''ve told you the plain truth, so what more need be said?
40834You, my friend, believe all these lying inventions of my enemies?
40834You?
40834Your decision is not owing to the scandal which you say is talked everywhere? 40834 A silence had fallen between the pair, but it was at length broken by Claudia, who said:Tell me, Dudley, what is it that is troubling you?"
40834And Claudia?
40834And how had he fared?
40834And then?
40834And those ugly scandals whispered here and there?
40834And who in the name of fortune is Muriel?"
40834And yet, what credential could be more convincing than that innocent- looking love- token of the past?
40834And yet, would they envy him if they were aware of the terrible truth-- if they were aware of that awful secret ever burdening his conscience?
40834And, after all, who was this pretty Muriel?
40834Are you blind?
40834Are you going abroad?"
40834Are you going to enter a monastery, or something?"
40834As he was a man, what did it matter?
40834As his doom was fixed, what did it matter who called upon him now?
40834As this waltz was their last, why should he spoil it?
40834At what cost?"
40834At what had he hinted?
40834At what had the colonel hinted in that very room months ago, when he had warned him to beware of her?
40834But do n''t altogether forget me, will you?"
40834But had she actually thrust herself upon him, or was her presence there, as she had alleged, a mere freak of fortune?
40834But how could he when he had made that strange, unholy compact with that woman, her rival, who now held his future in her hands?
40834But how was it, Parsons, that if the door was closed, you overheard this very edifying conversation?"
40834But if the truth became known?
40834But is it regarding Major Lennox that you are making inquiries?
40834But surely you will let me have my own way just once more?"
40834But who''s been chattering to you about her?"
40834But, as my place in your heart has long ago been usurped, why should we, intimate friends as we are, make a hollow pretence that it still exists?"
40834But,"he added,"can you tell me nothing more of this man Lennox-- of his antecedents, I mean?"
40834Can I have no further explanation?"
40834Can it be that your thirst for knowledge is due to a vague idea that Muriel might one day be the_ chatelaine_ of this place, eh?"
40834Can not you see for yourself, dear, that I am yours-- entirely yours?"
40834Chisholm?"
40834Could he ever forget the woman whom he loved, and yet despised?
40834Could her visit to Italy have any connection with the task which she had taken upon herself to fulfil?
40834Could it be that the blow which he had expected for so long had at length fallen?
40834Did he really love her, he asked himself for the thousandth time?
40834Did she really love him?
40834Do n''t you see that I love you, Dudley?"
40834Do n''t you understand?
40834Do you chance to know in Italy a man named Marucci?"
40834Do you deny it?"
40834Do you happen to know him?
40834Do you happen to remember any one among your acquaintances named Lennox-- Major Mayne Lennox?"
40834Do you recollect that your answer to that embarrassing question in the House was supplied to you after a special meeting of the Cabinet?"
40834Do you recollect your vows of eternal friendship to me-- unworthy though I may be?"
40834Do you remember how, beneath the stars that sweet- scented night in July, we swore eternal friendship and eternal love?"
40834Do you remember those days, long ago, when at Winchester we were boy and girl lovers?
40834Do you remember what you told me when we walked together in the park at Wroxeter that morning last summer?
40834Do you remember?"
40834Do you think there can possibly be any eavesdroppers?"
40834Do you understand, Dudley?"
40834Dudley,"said the old man,"you''ll forgive me for speaking plain, wo n''t you?
40834Eight o''clock already?"
40834For what reason?
40834Forget?
40834Forgive me for speaking as I have done, wo n''t you?"
40834Forgive me for speaking plainly, wo n''t you?"
40834From which_ Chancellerie_ did the document emanate?"
40834Had she not promised in the most emphatic manner that no word of his terrible secret should pass her lips?
40834Had they arranged all this between them?
40834Had you ever seen her before?"
40834Has it ever occurred to you, my reader, what a terrible sameness marks the careers of front- bench men?
40834Has some other woman usurped my place in your heart?
40834Have I given you offence?
40834Have you anything to suggest?"
40834Have you met her?"
40834Have you no suspicion of its nature?"
40834He surely had no political connections?"
40834He was in the diplomatic service, you say?"
40834How can it?
40834How could he act?
40834How could he endure to feign an affection and fill her heart with unrealisable hopes?
40834How long would it be deferred?
40834How many days of grace would his secret enemy give him?
40834How; would she act if she knew the truth?
40834I have not exaggerated his qualities, have I?
40834I know that odious reports have reached you regarding me, but surely you will trust me?
40834I presume she owes all her social success to you?"
40834I thought I understood you that there were only vague hints?"
40834I wonder what it can all mean?
40834I wonder why the Meldrums invited her?
40834If Muriel Mortimer amuses you, as apparently she does, what does her parentage matter?
40834If she knew of the secret compact that he had made with Muriel Mortimer what would she say?
40834Is he an official messenger?"
40834Is it an actual reality that I''m standing here to- night for the last time, or is it a dream?
40834Is this so?"
40834Let''s see, has n''t Lady Meldrum a daughter?"
40834Murray- Kerr?
40834Of what character?"
40834Oh, do n''t you know?
40834Perhaps you have heard?"
40834Probably you''ve been working too hard, or perhaps you''ve made a long speech to- day-- have you?"
40834Shall I give you proof that I am cognisant of the truth?"
40834Shall I tell you?
40834She loved him; but would she love him any longer when she knew the appalling truth?
40834She surely could not expect you to stand sponsor for a girl of whom you knew nothing?"
40834Should he conciliate her, or should he, on the other hand, defy her and refuse her assistance?
40834Should he mention it, or should he reserve to himself the knowledge of her inexplicable resolve to effect his marriage with an unknown girl?
40834Should he return to Albert Gate and speak with Claudia for the last time?
40834Should he return to Claudia?
40834Surely if we, by mutual consent, remain apart, we may still remain in_ bon accord_?"
40834Surely it''s hardly the proper thing to speak of a lady as` that woman''?"
40834Surely you can speak straight out?"
40834Surely you do not doubt me?"
40834Surely you know my nature well enough?
40834The amiable gossips have coupled my name quite falsely with a dozen different men during the past twelve months, and am I a penny the worse for it?
40834The man glanced suspiciously at the door by which Dudley had entered, and asked:"Are we alone?
40834Then he touched the bell, and of the man who entered he asked:"Did a messenger from London leave anything for me this morning, Riggs?"
40834Then, when they had finished, he put a question to her, point- blank:"Who is Muriel Mortimer?"
40834To what cause, pray, do I owe this nocturnal visit to my study?"
40834To whom is it?"
40834Was it not his duty to extricate her?
40834Was it possible that she was thinking of the unknown Muriel, whom she had declared he must marry?
40834Was it uttered in sarcasm, or was she in real earnest?
40834Was not that a freak of Fate?
40834Was she actually to lose him?
40834Was there any wonder that such a woman was the leader of the smart world, or that every fad or fancy of hers should become the mode?
40834Was this man telling the truth?
40834Well, I wonder what''s in the wind?"
40834Well, perhaps I was foolish, but if I promise never to see him again, will you forgive me?"
40834Well, who''s been offending you now?"
40834What can I do?"
40834What could he reply to that despatch?
40834What could he reply?
40834What could it be?
40834What did it matter?
40834What do you mean?"
40834What does it matter to me?
40834What foolish nonsense did I utter in my madness?"
40834What harm could there possibly be in their meeting?
40834What has upset you?
40834What have I done wrong this time?"
40834What if he had watched and recognised me?
40834What interest can they possibly have in my movements?
40834What is her name?"
40834What is it that troubles you?"
40834What is it?"
40834What is it?"
40834What is she?"
40834What matter if people gossiped about them?
40834What of them?
40834What possible object could Claudia have, he wondered, in bringing there a strange woman and suggesting to her that he should marry a third person?
40834What then?"
40834What was she suggesting?
40834What words of mad despair, he wondered, did it contain?
40834What would she think of him-- she who had been just as much a part of his life as he of hers?
40834What, he wondered, could she suspect?
40834What, she was wondering, had Colonel Murray- Kerr said about her?
40834When do you return to the Continent?"
40834When he had allowed a servant to hand him some refreshment he joined?
40834Where can I see you?"
40834Where is he?"
40834Where was it now?
40834Wherever have you been?"
40834Who is this mysterious ward?
40834Who, he wondered, was his visitor?
40834Why can not she come to England?"
40834Why do n''t you come?
40834Why do n''t you get rid of him, and have some one less fossilised?"
40834Why had he been persuaded to visit her?
40834Why had she been planning for him to marry a girl who was unknown to him?
40834Why in the world had the colonel so distinctly warned him?
40834Why is it?"
40834Why not admit the truth?"
40834Why not now?
40834Why should I?
40834Why, I wonder, has Fate directed me here?"
40834Why, he wondered, had the colonel spoken in so forcible a fashion, and yet refused a single word of explanation?
40834Why, you ask?
40834Why?
40834Why?"
40834Why?"
40834Why?"
40834Wife of a big iron- founder in Glasgow, is n''t she?"
40834Yet is it not the truth?
40834Yet what would that avail him?
40834You are in the British Secret Service?"
40834You can not deny that?"
40834You do not believe me so black as I am painted-- do you?"
40834You follow me?"
40834You give your word of honour that it is not?"
40834You married the man who was my best friend; but for what purpose?
40834You recollect your sudden refusal to see me last autumn?
40834You will recollect it, and how nearly it resulted in war?"
40834_ Pourquoi non_?"
40834he cried, his hand stroking her beautiful hair;"how can you ever doubt me?
40834he replied with affected carelessness next moment,"the tall shabby man who called on the night of the dance you mean?
40834repeated the captain;"Francesco Marruci, I presume you mean?
40834she asked quickly,"even though you must be aware how deeply this extraordinary matter affects me?"
40834she cried;"why not at once confess what I believe is the truth, that you have grown tired of me?"
40834so you would condemn me unheard?
15788Youmeaning, for instance... what authorities in the Church?
15788A priesthood of women too?
15788After all he''s not there in the room, is he?
15788After six years of office, who would n''t?
15788All I ask of myself is... can I pay Fate on demand?
15788Am I?
15788And Trebell...[_ He speaks through his teeth._]... do you think your accession to power in the party is popular at the best?
15788And am I to conclude that you do n''t want Charles to change his mind?
15788And are you the power behind your brother, Miss Trebell?
15788And been suspected of the malpractice myself if he''d found it out?
15788And do they still think it worth while to administer an oath to your witnesses?
15788And if I do n''t fight... it''d be no fun for you, I suppose?
15788And is that a reproach or a compliment?
15788And that speech at Leeds was the crowning move I suppose; just asking the Nonconformists to bring things to a head?
15788And then what we must do is to give the children power over their teachers?
15788And then?
15788And they do n''t?
15788And think now... whatever love there may be between us has neither hatred nor jealousy in it, has it, Henry?
15788And was n''t your bill going to be such a good piece of work?
15788And what exactly do you mean by that?
15788And what has become of your ideal?
15788And what would be left of me at all I should like to know?
15788And what''s all this nonsense about going to the country again next year?
15788And you took all the adventures as seriously as the Don did?
15788And... oh, was n''t I right?...
15788Anyone coming?
15788Are n''t they coming to dinner?
15788Are there to be facilities for_ any_ of the teachers giving dogmatic instruction?
15788Are we so incompetent?
15788Are you busy, Henry?
15788Are you doctoring him for once?
15788Are you in for perjury, too?
15788Are you in trouble?
15788Are you joking?
15788Are you serious?
15788As well here as by moonlight?
15788Because of...?
15788Been here long?
15788Billiards, Lucy?
15788Bit of a charlatan, do n''t you think?
15788But are we never to be happy and irresponsible... never for a moment?
15788But do both of you consider how valuable, how vital Trebell is to us just at this moment?
15788But how long do you think the spirit stays near the body... how long?
15788But marriage is a very general and complete sort of partnership, is n''t it?
15788But since Mrs. O''Connell is dead what is the excuse for a scandal?
15788But supposing Mallaby and the Nonconformists had n''t been able to force the Liberals''hand?
15788But tell me this... what education besides marriage does a woman get?
15788But what did Nature care for that?
15788But what has been the matter?
15788But what makes you so sure?
15788But you saw him, Farrant... and he gave you his opinion, did n''t he?
15788But you would admit, would n''t you, that we can only deal with temporal things?
15788But, again... have I been wrong to shrink from personal relations with Mr. Trebell?
15788Ca n''t you open your heart like a child again?
15788Ca n''t you see any wrinkles?
15788Can I do nothing?
15788Can I see him?
15788Can nothing further be done?
15788Can one impose a clever idea upon men and women?
15788Can she?
15788Can you accept thoroughly now the secular solution for all Primary Schools?
15788Can you forecast the opinion you will have of it six months hence?
15788Can you understand that?
15788Can you?
15788Can you?
15788Can your cousins and aunts make it so awkward for you, Horsham?
15788Cantelupe... what does perjury to that extent mean to a Roman Catholic?
15788Could n''t you have kept the true state of the case from Sir Fielding?
15788Could we not go and stay there only for a few days?
15788D''you know her husband?
15788D''you know why really I went back on the Liberals over this question?
15788D''you think I have n''t tried?
15788D''you think I--?
15788D''you think life is a bit like them?
15788Dead because she was afraid to bear your child, is n''t she?
15788Demonstrating something with a... what''s that thing?
15788Did her husband arrive in time?
15788Did n''t Lord Charles want you to send the boys there till they were ready for Harrow?
15788Did n''t you say she came to you first of all?
15788Did she mind much?
15788Did you expect Mr. Blackborough to get on well with Henry?
15788Did you expect Percival''s objection to the finance of the scheme?
15788Did you have a good holiday?
15788Did you hear Lord Horsham at dinner on the lack of dignity in an irreligious state?
15788Did you notice the light in my window as you came in?
15788Do n''t I look a wreck?
15788Do n''t you leave them to Mr. Kent?
15788Do n''t you like her, Lady Davenport?
15788Do n''t you see it''s only now that you''ve become a person of some importance to the world... and why?
15788Do n''t you think an aristocracy of brains is the best aristocracy, Miss Trebell?
15788Do n''t you think that is only sarcasm, Mr. O''Connell?
15788Do n''t you think you''d better go and finish dressing?
15788Do n''t you think, Cyril, it would be wiser to prevent your man coming into the room at all while we''re discussing this?
15788Do people know?
15788Do they place any time- limit to the effect of a mortal sin?
15788Do you all mean to out- face the British Lion with me after to- morrow... dare to be Daniels?
15788Do you expect me to go through with this?
15788Do you feel justified in making public use of it?
15788Do you find me so?
15788Do you hear Aunt Mary wants to sell the Burford Holbein?
15788Do you know how empty I feel of all virtue at this moment?
15788Do you never wonder if it is n''t steering you?
15788Do you really think everyone has gone to bed?
15788Do you remember?
15788Do you think I did n''t know that I was heartless and that she was socially in the wrong?
15788Do you think he''d develop into anything else... but for me?
15788Do you think it right, Julia, to finish with that after an hour''s Bach?
15788Do you think it wise to leave agnostic science at the side of the plate?
15788Do you think my daughter has been wasting her time and her tact?
15788Do you think the things you like to have taught in schools are any use to one when one comes to deal with you?
15788Do you think the world is grown up enough to do without dogma?
15788Do you think they do n''t take their revenge sooner or later?
15788Do you think they''ve met...?
15788Do you want the chances?
15788Do you want the curtains drawn back?
15788Do you?
15788Does he definitely disagree?
15788Does he drink too?
15788Does he like leading his party?
15788Does he think so now?...
15788Does it matter so much to you that I should have wished to be the father of your child?
15788Does it work?
15788Does my unworthiness then... if you like to call it so... make you unworthy now?
15788Does n''t Blackborough mean to turn up at all?
15788Does yours, Charles?
15788Eh... O''Connell?
15788Eh?
15788Evans?
15788Evans?
15788FRANCES TREBELL... Cantelupe?
15788Fanny... how fond are you of Amy O''Connell?
15788Fanny... will it leave you so very lonely?
15788Farrant, you do n''t seriously think that... outside his undoubted capabilities... Trebell is an acquisition to the party?
15788Forward to what?
15788Four years?
15788From what motives have we thrown Trebell over?
15788Full of dust?
15788Had I better give you a sleeping draught?
15788Had I better go round myself and see him?
15788Had I the right to choose or had I not?
15788Had Trebell any foreknowledge of what she did and the risk she was running and could he have stopped it?
15788Has she told you so?
15788Have I anything else in the world?
15788Have I found you in this the beginnings of a new one?
15788Have I stolen from Robespierre too?
15788Have n''t we always preferred it to the undenominational?
15788Have you anything better to do?
15788Have you made up your mind to that?
15788Have you not?
15788He goes quickly as if it were an answer to his anxiety._"Yes?"
15788He should have enquired into my character first, should n''t he, Cantelupe?
15788He''s Roman Catholic, is n''t he?
15788He''s very fond of me, if that''s what you mean?
15788Henry, have you at last managed to overwork yourself?
15788How are you, Cantelupe?
15788How are you, Dr. Wedgecroft?
15788How are you, Mrs. O''Connell?
15788How are you?
15788How can a man understand?
15788How d''you do, Doctor?
15788How d''you do?
15788How do you do, Miss Trebell?
15788How do you do?
15788How do you know you''ve the power of recovery?
15788How does he stomach me in prospect as a colleague, so far?
15788How else could I tell Horsham that my work matters?
15788How else?
15788How ill is he?
15788How long have I before Lord Charles--?
15788How long were we together that night?
15788How should I know?
15788How was Trebell''s guilt discovered?
15788How?
15788Hullo... waiting?
15788I could n''t have stopped it, could I?
15788I did... of that affair of his with Mrs. Parkington... years ago?
15788I do deserve them, do n''t I?
15788I do n''t think I have been the cause of your dropping Trebell, have I?
15788I have n''t been long there and back, have I?
15788I have n''t been much of an interruption now, have I?
15788I know that if your God did n''t make use of men, sins and all... what would ever be done in the world?
15788I mean, till this election is over Trebell counts still as one of them, does n''t he, Miss Trebell?
15788I mean... still nothing need come out?
15788I presume Lord Charles thinks it''ll hand the Church over to him and his... dare I say''Sect''?
15788I suddenly came over Chopinesque, Fanny;... what''s your objection?
15788I wonder?
15788If I accept your tests will you accept mine?
15788If neither you-- nor Percival-- nor perhaps others will work with him... what am I to do?
15788If this affair were twenty years old would you do as you are doing?
15788If you do n''t grudge your own strength, why should you be tender of other people''s?
15788If you had been in her place?
15788Is he going to die?
15788Is it the prospect of Disestablishment suddenly makes him so accommodating?
15788Is it with your husband?
15788Is it worth while?
15788Is it?
15788Is it?
15788Is it?
15788Is n''t Death divorce enough for her?
15788Is that Tory cynicism or feminine?
15788Is that a complaint?
15788Is that difficult?
15788Is that how you''re thinking of it?
15788Is that sufficient?
15788Is that true, Julia?
15788Is the curse of barrenness to be nothing to a man?
15788Is there any record of a speech that ever did?
15788Is this a matter for intellectual jugglery?
15788Is this what you call being in love?
15788It''s not altogether a pleasant thing, is it... the selfishness of the hard worked man?
15788Jude''s?
15788Julia, Julia... is n''t it unbelievable?
15788Just come?
15788Let me see... do you know my cousin Charles Cantelupe?
15788Mamma, have you ever discussed so- called anti- Christian science with Lord Charles?
15788Mamma... how many people, do you think, believe that Cyril''s_ grande passion_ for me takes that form?
15788May I ask, Cyril, why are we concerning ourselves with this wickedness at all?
15788Mrs. O''Connell gone?
15788My dear Horsham, what had it to do with our request to O''Connell?
15788My discovery must be what to do with the men who think more of the state than their Church... the majority of parsons, do n''t you think?
15788Need there be more suffering and reproaches?
15788Never mind... you''re here now to hand me half the responsibility, are n''t you?
15788No Chopin?
15788No doubt you use the words Love and Hatred; but do you know that love and hatred for principles or persons should come from beyond a man?
15788No matter what they teach?
15788No one knows about you and poor Amy?
15788Not founded with church money?
15788Now shall we finish the conversation in prose?
15788Now, what made your husband marry you?
15788O''Connell?
15788O''Connell?
15788Of course, I''ve enough money to live on... so I could take up some woman''s profession... What are you smiling at?
15788Oh, about dinner?
15788Oh, are you to be here?
15788Oh, my dear Horsham, ca n''t you see that if O''Connell had blabbed to- morrow it really would have been a blessing in disguise?
15788Oh, my dear... what is wrong?
15788Oh, what about Wedgecroft?
15788Oh... am I in your way...?
15788Oh... do n''t you think it was cruel of him?
15788Oh... how do you do?
15788Oh... you can do without compliments, ca n''t you?
15788On what grounds?
15788Or will they make a Tory of you?
15788Praise is the greatest of luxuries, is n''t it, Henry?
15788Providence limited... eh?
15788Putting Appropriation, the Buildings and the Representation question on one side for the moment?
15788Shall I bring him up here?
15788Shall I carry you?
15788Shall I drop you at Grosvenor Square?
15788Shall I offer to give evidence at the inquest this morning?
15788Shall you come, Aunt Julia?
15788She must work through men, must n''t she?
15788Should I have grown a beard and travelled abroad and after ten years timidly tried to climb my way back into politics?
15788So I have provided just a first step, have I?
15788So Justin lives at Linaskea alone?
15788So far as you''ve made up your minds?
15788So late?
15788So late?
15788So you need not have let them into the secret?
15788Statutes?
15788Suppose they convert me?
15788Switch off some light, will you?
15788Take Amy O''Connell that lace thing, will you, Lucy?
15788That night we were together... it was for a moment different to everything that has ever been in your life before, was n''t it?
15788That rather begs the question of your very existence, does n''t it?
15788That seems simple enough, does n''t it?
15788That''s always such a difficult sort of point to determine, is n''t it?
15788That''s dead and buried now, is n''t it?
15788That''s priggish, is n''t it?
15788The Bill ca n''t be brought into the Lords... and who''s going to take Disestablishment through the Commons for us?
15788The fear of life... do you think it was... which is the beginning of all evil?
15788The little fool, the little fool... why did she kill my child?
15788The rest is just mutual attraction?
15788The rule of them is the same for all, is it not... from the tramp and the labourer to the plutocrat in his car?
15788Then comes the test... have we faith enough to go on... to go through with the unknown thing?
15788Then what did he say?
15788Then why do you want to kiss me?
15788Then why should she value your gift?
15788Then you''d leave us, Trebell?
15788There''d be others?
15788There''s nobody that need be suspecting, is there?
15788They wo n''t have to be answered now... will they?
15788This looks like popularity and the great heart of the people, does n''t it?
15788To get what I want, without paying more than it''s worth to me....?
15788To the other inquest?
15788To- night?
15788Trebell, what did you want to come here for?
15788Under public control?
15788Walter?
15788Want me to...?
15788Was he told of the whole business?
15788Was that before Lord Horsham wrote to you?
15788Was that wrong... ought n''t I to have touched it?
15788Was the end very sudden?
15788We can stop thinking of this dead woman, ca n''t we?
15788We''re a common sense couple, are n''t we?
15788Wedgecroft, what is the utmost O''Connell will be called upon to do for us... for Trebell?
15788Well now... will you explain to me this project for endowing Education with your surplus?
15788Well, Mamma, can we do without Mr. Trebell?
15788Well, what does that care as long as scandal''s its own copyright?
15788Well, what''s to become of my bill?
15788Well... he did n''t?
15788Well... in here?
15788Well... we could n''t carry a bill you disapproved of, could we?
15788Well?
15788Were n''t we doing our best?
15788What about a messenger?
15788What age are you now... forty- six... forty- seven?
15788What are men to do when this is how women use the freedom we have given them?
15788What are you writing?
15788What are yours?
15788What did it matter what I thought her?
15788What do you do... just slide the bolt?
15788What do you mean to do?
15788What do you say to that?
15788What do you start thinking of once the shock''s over?
15788What do you think Trebell will do now?
15788What does he propose?
15788What does it matter?
15788What does she say?
15788What else can it be?
15788What fool?
15788What had Percival to say on the subject, Farrant?
15788What has all that to do with it?
15788What has it to do with you anyhow?
15788What have I to do at all with Mr. Trebell as a man?
15788What have you been working at?
15788What have you to say about that?
15788What is his point?
15788What is it you''re worried about... if a mere sister may ask?
15788What is it, Simpson?
15788What is it?
15788What is it?
15788What is more crushingly finite than knowledge?
15788What is to be said to Mr. O''Connell when he comes?
15788What made them bring in Resolutions?
15788What made you take up with me at all?
15788What time did you ask him to come, Horsham?
15788What time did you say, Wedgecroft?
15788What will you have?
15788What would you do with it?
15788What''ll the Nonconformists say?
15788What''s Now- a- days?
15788What''s a woman to do?
15788What''s beneath trust deeds and last wills and testaments, and even acts of Parliament and official creeds?
15788What''s the test of godliness, but your power to receive the new idea in whatever form it comes and give it life?
15788What''s this, Kent, about Trebell''s making you his secretary?
15788What''s your brother working at?
15788When did you last use that nursery name?
15788When will you, then?
15788When''ll he be up and about?
15788Who ever proposed to insist on pillorying every case of spasmodic adultery?
15788Who is going to put out a finger to make it less awkward for Horsham to stick to you if there''s a chance of your going under?
15788Why ca n''t women take love- affairs so lightly?
15788Why ca n''t you make up your mind?
15788Why did you never believe in any woman?
15788Why do n''t you tell me?
15788Why has Lord Horsham thrown you over then... or has n''t that anything to do with it?
15788Why have you been talking to me as if I were someone else?
15788Why is it always the highest who fall?
15788Why not turn all those theology mongers into doctors or schoolmasters?
15788Why not?
15788Why offensive?
15788Why should I flinch?
15788Why should they question her on such a point if O''Connell says nothing?
15788Why should you cry out at a proof now and then of what''s always in the hearts of most of us?
15788Why, is Walter a fool?
15788Why... it is n''t known that he will definitely ask me to join?
15788Why?
15788Will the afternoon do?
15788Will they...?
15788Will you allow me that it is statecraft to make a profession profitable?
15788Will you decide to- night?
15788Will you dictate?
15788Will you please to make allowance, Lord Charles, for a mediaeval scholar''s contempt of modern government?
15788Will you take charge of the bill, Blackborough?
15788Will you wear my skirt?
15788Wo n''t he sell or wo n''t they purchase?
15788Wo n''t it comfort you to think of drunkenness as a beautiful thing?
15788Wo n''t it?
15788Wo n''t you go in?
15788Wo n''t you tell me whom to go to?
15788Would they have thought of that and stopped whispering about the scandal?
15788Yes, Charles?
15788Yes... our minds have been much relieved within the last half hour, have n''t they?
15788Yes... the scandal would smash you, would n''t it?
15788Yes... what exactly do you propose we shall say to O''Connell, Wedgecroft?
15788Yes?
15788You are forming it to carry disestablishment, are you not, Cyril?
15788You did n''t...?
15788You have n''t very nice ideas, have you?
15788You have sent for me, Lord Horsham?
15788You know how this misery began?
15788You make little treaties with Truth and with Beauty, and what can disturb you?
15788You mean if they''d had to throw you over?
15788You realise that, do n''t you?
15788You think I''ve a mind to put an end to that same?
15788You think Life''s an important thing, do n''t you?
15788You think so?
15788You value your work more than anything else in the world?
15788You''d have me first your plaything and then Nature''s, would you?
15788You''d marry me, would n''t you?
15788You''ll dine at home?
15788You''ll stand by and do what you can, wo n''t you?
15788You''ll tell me what to do, wo n''t you?
15788You''re in town, are n''t you, Farrant?
15788You''re not ill... interviewing a doctor?
15788Your choices in life have made you what you want to be, have n''t they?
15788Your neuralgia better?
15788Your own life is sufficient unto itself, is n''t it?
15788Your trouble is nothing to do with Amy O''Connell, is it?
15788[_ A little impatient._] What''s the good of that?
15788[_ A little malicious._] Is there any particular reason he should treat her well?
15788[_ A little subtly._] Still... now you and Horsham are cousins, are n''t you?
15788[_ Affected; not quite convinced._] Do you think you can buy a tradition and transmute it?
15788[_ After a little scrutiny of her- face._] Well, if marriage is only the means to an end... what''s the end?
15788[_ Alert and cautious._] You want to endow colleges?
15788[_ All show of resistance gone._] Did he?
15788[_ Almost ill- temperedly._] How could he have stopped it?
15788[_ Almost provokingly._] What about him?
15788[_ Almost reprovingly._] No question of politics?
15788[_ Angry, remorseful, rebellious._] When will men learn to know one woman from another?
15788[_ As he bows over her hand._] And what has Education to do with it?
15788[_ As if half his life depended on her answer._] Is that true?
15788[_ Asking from real interest in her._] Was yours a deliberate choice and do you never regret it?
15788[_ At the telephone._] Yes, bring him up, of course... is n''t Mr. Kent there?
15788[_ Beckoning with her eyes._] What''s this, Mr. Trebell?
15788[_ Brought to his mundane self_] Well... are you sure?
15788[_ Clicking off all but his reading lamp._] So?
15788[_ Coming nearer without haste or excitement._] Well?
15788[_ Crying out._] Why... why did no woman teach you to be gentle?
15788[_ Curiously._] Are you afraid of death?
15788[_ Cutting her short, bitingly._] Has a time ever come to you when it was easier to die than to go on living?
15788[_ Dealing out justice._] I find her quite charming to look at and talk to... but why should n''t Justin O''Connell live in Ireland for all that?
15788[_ Dealing with the impertinence in her own fashion._] What would make you marry me?
15788[_ Dismissing that subject._] Well... how''s Percival?
15788[_ Disregardful._] And what is it makes my pressing attentions endurable... if one may ask?
15788[_ Feeling that he must take part._] For instance?
15788[_ Flashing at him, revengefully._] Why?
15788[_ Forbiddingly commonplace._] What''s that letter?
15788[_ Forcing the issue._] What meaning do you attach to it?
15788[_ Forlornly sticking to his point._] What has all this to do with Trebell?
15788[_ Gentle and ironic._] Have you ever, for one moment, thought in that sense of anyone else?
15788[_ Glowing to white heat._] Is this a time to count the consequences to ourselves?
15788[_ Going to the window as she buttons her gloves._] Were you on deck early this morning?
15788[_ Gravely._] What does your father say?
15788[_ Grimacing sweetly, her eyes only half lifted._] Does he?
15788[_ Hardly._] May I ask you to interfere on my behalf no further?
15788[_ He corrects himself smiling._] I mean, my dear Blackborough, why not stick to the Colonies?
15788[_ He draws her from the window; then does not let her go._] May I kiss you again?
15788[_ Her tone expressing quite wonderfully her sentiments towards the owner._] Do n''t you think she''d sooner catch cold?
15788[_ His eyes shift beyond her; beyond the room._] What is it in your thoughts and actions which makes them bear fruit?
15788[_ His face set in thought._] Where have you been since we met?
15788[_ His thoughts shifting their plane._] Was she so very mad?
15788[_ Humouring him._] Ought we to burn the house down?
15788[_ Imploring comfort._] But should we have held together through Trebell''s bill?
15788[_ In sudden agony._] D''you think I want it to be true?
15788[_ Including_ HORSHAM_ now in his appeal._] Does anyone think he knows me now to be a worse man... less fit, less able... than he did a week ago?
15788[_ Ironically._] Has he been pleased with the prospect?
15788[_ Irritably._] Why are you picking me to pieces?
15788[_ Kindly._] And you''re sure of yourself, are n''t you?
15788[_ Kindly._] Why do you pretend to be callous?
15788[_ Leaving the fellow to his subtleties._] Well, what about the maid?
15788[_ Letting it be a fairy tale._] Is your mother the Wide World nothing to you?
15788[_ Lifting the subject off its feet._] Not if I come out of the cabinet and preach revolution?
15788[_ Listlessly._] Does it matter why?
15788[_ Looking at_ FRANCES_ a little curiously._] Did n''t your instinct lead you to marry... or did you fight against it?
15788[_ Losing her patience, childishly._] What do you mean by the World?
15788[_ Measuring_ TREBELL_ with his eyes._] And by which shall I help you to a solution... telling lies or the truth to- morrow?
15788[_ Not to be put down._] What is the prose for God?
15788[_ Not too shocked to be curious._] Are there really?
15788[_ Not without mischief._] And what was the effect on the pupils?
15788[_ Only half humorously._] But what else is one to do with them?
15788[_ Proceeding with her cynicism._] Humanity achieves... what?
15788[_ Protesting._] No more?
15788[_ Pugnaciously._] D''you mean I''m just pretending not to attack him personally?
15788[_ Quite inexorable._] Would n''t any other woman have served the purpose... and is it less of a purpose because we did n''t know we had it?
15788[_ Readily._] Do n''t you think I''m taking it in a way... by marrying Walter?
15788[_ Really puzzled._] What do you mean?
15788[_ She comes in._] Is it very late?
15788[_ She puts a square envelope at his hand._] Is a letter marked private from the Education Office political or personal?
15788[_ She remembers the doctor._] Oh... have you been attending her?
15788[_ Shrill even at a momentary desertion._] What do you mean?
15788[_ So bored by these metaphysics._] Faith in what?
15788[_ So pleasantly sceptical._] Do you think they''d have outlasted the second reading?
15788[_ Soft and friendly._] How far are you actually pledged to him?
15788[_ Sotto voce._] Why did you ever make it?
15788[_ Startled._] Who else?
15788[_ Stealthily._] Is it, Horsham?
15788[_ Struck with the idea._] Well... why not?
15788[_ Struggling... with herself_] Oh, why do you rouse me like this?
15788[_ Suddenly a thought strikes him._] D''you think it was Horsham and his little committee persuaded O''Connell?
15788[_ Suddenly with nervous caution._] Walter, you do n''t know, do you?
15788[_ Taking another path._] Shall I tell you something I believe?
15788[_ The little snub almost bewildering her._] Anything private?
15788[_ Then he breaks away again into great bitterness._] No... what do they make of this woman''s death?
15788[_ Then hysterically._] God can make you believe in Him when he likes, ca n''t he?
15788[_ Then surveying his three glum companions, bursts out._] Well...?
15788[_ Then, as for the second time she reaches the door._] Do n''t take away my razors, will you?
15788[_ They both get up, cheered considerably._] You wo n''t forget this, will you?
15788[_ Thinking of those moments._] Did I?
15788[_ Throwing in the monosyllable with sharp youthful enquiry._] Why?
15788[_ Turning back enlightened a little._] That''s more the trouble then than the Cabinet question?
15788[_ Vigorously making his point._] Then what would be the conditions of your remaining?
15788[_ Waking to_ BLACKBOROUGH''S_ line of action._] Why on earth should you leave us, Trebell?
15788[_ Who has been listening, sharp- eyed._] Contrariwise, he would n''t have liked a Radical Bill though, would he?
15788[_ With a half smile._] Have you a vein of romance for holiday time?
15788[_ With a twist of his mouth._] Promised, has he?
15788[_ With an effort._] Kent?
15788[_ With an incredulous grin._] You''re not going back to extending old- age pensions after turning the unfortunate Liberals out on it, are you?
15788[_ With answering bitterness._] When will all women care to be one thing rather than the other?
15788[_ With charming insinuation._] And have you calculated, Blackborough, what may become of us if Trebell has the pull of being out of it?
15788[_ With coquetry._] You''re not interested in my character?
15788[_ With cynical humour._] Which I''m not to tell him either?
15788[_ With full voice._] But in the creed I''ll lay down as unalterable there shall be neither Jew nor Greek.... What do you think of St. Paul, Gilbert?
15788[_ With keenness._] Do you mean superhuman?
15788[_ With no trace of self- consciousness._] Well... how are you, after this long time?
15788[_ With reasoning in his tone._] Well... why not?
15788[_ Working up his protest._] Why on earth not?
15788[_ Yielding._] If I do... do n''t let me go mad, will you?
15788_ He is gone,_ TREBELL_ battles with uneasiness and at last mutters._"Oh... why did n''t she wait?"
15788and am I to write my prescriptions in English?
15788whose has been the real offence against Society... hers or mine?
19752A Queen among women?
19752A good''un, eh?
19752A sort of trimming to the leg of mutton? 19752 A spec?"
19752A swell?
19752About those great schemes that he''s filled poor dear Dick''s head with? 19752 About''we''?
19752Ah,said Morewood,"now what is it when you''re married?
19752Alliance becomes union, and union leads to fusion?
19752Altogether? 19752 Am I one of them?"
19752Am I to come, then?
19752An insider?
19752And do n''t do it?
19752And fusion leads where?
19752And go away, and let you coddle him?
19752And he''s against you?
19752And how have you three been amusing yourselves?
19752And if I do n''t do as you say?
19752And it will work?
19752And it would seem rather dull now to lose him?
19752And she ca n''t? 19752 And she''ll nurse me?
19752And that was where you were all the time Weston Marchmont was looking for you?
19752And we''ve won, have n''t we? 19752 And what did he say?"
19752And why are none of us perfect-- except perhaps the Mildmays? 19752 And why?"
19752And you both think I''m done for? 19752 And you wo n''t show it to the directors?"
19752And you''ll grow rich against your wedding, Jimmy?
19752And you''re as happy as you expected to be?
19752And you''re glad in spite of----?
19752And you, Jimmy?
19752And you? 19752 And you?"
19752Any news?
19752Anyhow I''m good for a little while?
19752Anything against him, eh?
19752Anything wrong?
19752Are n''t you going to allow me to give you anything?
19752Are you all agreed on your figures?
19752Are you importing metaphorical meanings into my hills?
19752Are you never really well?
19752Are you pleased?
19752Are you rebuking me? 19752 Are you sure there''s nothing else, Alexander?"
19752Are you sure there''s nothing wrong with him?
19752Are you? 19752 Are you?"
19752As a matter of fact now, had the Crusade much to do with it?
19752At least, I was till----He hesitated, and then went on slowly,"Do n''t you suppose I''ve been thinking about what you said?"
19752But do you think that''s the only way to look at people, any more than it is at books? 19752 But he wo n''t live?"
19752But if he wo n''t change his opinion?
19752But suppose they proved right? 19752 But that''s all consistent, is n''t it?
19752But they all agree, do they?
19752But why does n''t Quisanté like the old gentleman''s picture, and why do you keep it there if he does n''t?
19752But wo n''t Sir Winterton----?
19752By God, why have n''t I a fair chance?
19752Ca n''t you help us?
19752Can you wonder?
19752Charming, most charming, but full of politics and that sort of thing, eh?
19752Did Quisanté help you? 19752 Did n''t I?"
19752Did you hope it meant I was dead?
19752Do n''t you think being forgiven''s rather tiresome work?
19752Do n''t you think it all makes any difference?
19752Do n''t you think so? 19752 Do people marry on understandings?"
19752Do you believe people are bound to be always just what they are now?
19752Do you ever feel,she went on, apparently by way of amendment,"as if you might be dishonest-- under stress of circumstances, you know?"
19752Do you know what I hope?
19752Do you like him?
19752Do you really believe that?
19752Do you really mean what you say?
19752Do you think me very absurd? 19752 Do you think you could share my life?
19752Does even one thing?
19752Does he defy yours?
19752Does she think him above all laws?
19752Does she want to kill him?
19752Embarrasses you? 19752 Even Winterton felt it, and Mr. Quisanté never seems to rest, does he?"
19752For whom are you speaking?
19752Funny, is n''t it?
19752Go home? 19752 Hallo, are you in it too?"
19752Has he fainted?
19752Has the Mildmay woman been here again?
19752Have you had any talk with Quisanté about it?
19752Have you made friends?
19752Have you put in Professor Maturin''s report?
19752Have you told him that?
19752Have you turned stupid, or do n''t you see that you must leave me alone, or-- or I shall say all sorts of things I must n''t? 19752 He only talked to you about it?"
19752He was helping you, I suppose?
19752He''d defile me?
19752He''s a great man, is n''t he?
19752He''s a little too much of a politician, is n''t he?
19752He''s coming to- morrow, is n''t he?
19752He''s in love with you, of course?
19752How about that, Blair? 19752 How are Mr. Williams''feelings?"
19752How are you painting him?
19752How can he lie by now?
19752How can you be so blind?
19752How comes it that you, his wife, have n''t seen it too?
19752How did you hear of that?
19752How long does it last?
19752How many?
19752How much do you want?
19752How shall we ever stick to our year?
19752I gather that he put nothing in writing?
19752I hope you''re not offended? 19752 I hope your ladyship will let us see you very often in the town?"
19752I sha n''t outlive Methuselah anyhow, I suppose?
19752I stuck to it as long as I could,he said,"but you would n''t have me risk everything for it?"
19752I suppose Lady May''s not what you''d call a very domestic woman?
19752I suppose you preached your miserable Crusade, as you call it?
19752I thought you were supposed to tell the-- I mean, to state all the facts in a prospectus?
19752I wonder if my cause is a good one?
19752I''m done then, eh?
19752I''m to tell her that?
19752I-- I-- I spoke well?
19752If I go on defending him,she murmured,"shall I end by getting like him and really think it all right?
19752In fact-- shut one eye and go ahead?
19752In spite of my manners?
19752In talk or in conduct?
19752In the Alethea? 19752 Is he liable to such attacks?"
19752Is he so very important to us?
19752Is he still as devoted to Sandro?
19752Is he then a curriculum?
19752Is it likely I should suggest it or permit any of my friends to do so? 19752 Is it necessarily disreputable?"
19752Is it your own?
19752Is n''t it magnificent, parts of it anyhow?
19752Is n''t that rather rough on Aunt Maria?
19752Is our dear young friend a great woman, though?
19752Is there any truth at all in what Dick Benyon thinks? 19752 Is there anything worse?"
19752It was fine, was n''t it?
19752It was on the night of my-- when I was taken ill?
19752It''s a little hard, is n''t it?
19752Jews?
19752Knows how to fetch the women, does n''t he?
19752Last instructions?
19752Like her? 19752 Look here, you do n''t mean me, do you?"
19752May I? 19752 May''s kept you posted up?
19752Meanwhile you feel the temptation to dishonesty?
19752Metaphors again?
19752Might he? 19752 More truth here?
19752Mr. Williams''active conscience at work again?
19752Mrs. Baxter,said Morewood suddenly,"have you ever thought what would happen if you stopped making petticoats?"
19752No, no, did I? 19752 Nothing to be said, eh?
19752Nothing''s the worse for a bit of putting, is it?
19752Now is n''t he too elegant, May?
19752Now is the Church to swallow the State, or the other way round, or are they to swallow one another, or what?
19752Now, Dick, what is it?
19752Of course not-- or what would you have to say next time?
19752Of your husband''s?
19752Oh, and before you go, just pick up that book and give it me again, will you?
19752Oh, and do you already? 19752 Oh, and my dear aunt does n''t agree with them?"
19752Oh, but we should be clever enough not to be found out, should n''t we?
19752Oh, dear, why does he talk like that?
19752Oh, it has?
19752Only if I lose it?
19752Or are you only trying to be kind, to put me at my ease?
19752Or are you proposing to tip me a fiver?
19752Or even anything?
19752Or with Lady May?
19752Parables, my lady?
19752Porcine?
19752Quisanté did say something of the sort to me, but how in the world did you know? 19752 Reliability?"
19752Sails a little near the wind, do n''t it?
19752Sandro''s caught you too, has he?
19752Seems like making mistakes, does he?
19752Seen anything of the Benyons lately?
19752Shall I give my authority?
19752She''ll like that, wo n''t she?
19752She''s handsome, I suppose?
19752Sir Winterton must look out for the detectives, must n''t he?
19752Smoothed him down this time, sir?
19752So dishonest as-- as to get into trouble and be sent to prison and so on?
19752So he may be able to understand Alexander? 19752 Substitutes for conscience?"
19752Suppose we are, and by Jove, is n''t he what we are n''t? 19752 Supposing it was all true, what could I do?"
19752Surely neither Mr. Quisanté himself nor any of you would wish to win through such an occurrence as this? 19752 That happens best when Amy''s away?"
19752The Dean''s very forgiving,she said,"and Alexander''s doing well now, anyhow, is n''t he?"
19752The country, yes, but how about some of the party?
19752The directors did n''t?
19752The money?
19752The other side has always prevented your doing it?
19752The position''s very critical, is n''t it, then?
19752The views of his supporters----"In a matter like this?
19752Then if churchmen are politicians too----?
19752Then why trundle it?
19752There''s nothing the matter with Sandro, is there?
19752Think so?
19752Think they''re still on the top of the hill, jawing, Lady Richard?
19752Thinking him over in the light of a relation, perhaps?
19752This Mr. Williams is an honest man, I suppose?
19752To make some money?
19752To urge him to do what he thinks a mistake?
19752Was he?
19752Was it insulting? 19752 Was it that?"
19752We are friends again, are n''t we?
19752We gave them the slip beautifully, did n''t we?
19752We had whimsy- whamsies last night, had n''t we?
19752We shall be full of congratulations for days now, sha n''t we?
19752We''ve done it, have n''t we?
19752Well, I mean, what do you see in him?
19752Well, who said I was going to die?
19752Well, who''s your authority?
19752Well, why have n''t you been to see him?
19752Well, you''ve known what you say for a long while, have n''t you?
19752Well?
19752Well?
19752What a tangle of''worses''I''ve tied it up in, have n''t I?
19752What about?
19752What are they? 19752 What are you going to do?"
19752What did he do?
19752What did he say? 19752 What did you say?"
19752What do you mean?
19752What does he want?
19752What does the Dean say?
19752What does the silly creature mean?
19752What for?
19752What has she done? 19752 What have you done this morning?"
19752What that placard says, sir?
19752What was the quarrel?
19752What''ll he do?
19752What''ll it be when you''re married?
19752What''ll you do now?
19752What''s Mr. Williams going to do?
19752What''s the matter then?
19752What''s the matter?
19752What''s the matter?
19752What, after sending back the five hundred?
19752What, after the Crusade?
19752What, already?
19752What, are you going too?
19752What?
19752What?
19752What?
19752When did you come to disbelieve in it?
19752When you''re tired of a rosy apple, you like a bite at a bitter cherry? 19752 Which was he, dear?"
19752Who from?
19752Who the deuce is Susy Sinnett?
19752Who to?
19752Who was talking?
19752Who''s the funny old woman?
19752Whom do you talk to?
19752Why do I do what?
19752Why do n''t you want her to come?
19752Why do you come and tell this to me?
19752Why does n''t Sandro believe in it so much?
19752Why does n''t this man stop?
19752Why have you come? 19752 Why in the world did you listen to him, May?"
19752Why should I? 19752 Why?"
19752Will they brush off? 19752 Worn out?
19752Would you see this in any country except England?
19752Wrong with him? 19752 Yes, and lock it, and----""Give you the key?"
19752Yes?
19752You and Jimmy?
19752You both love me so much?
19752You do hate it as much as I do, do n''t you?
19752You do n''t like her?
19752You do n''t love me? 19752 You do n''t mean,"he said at last openly and bluntly to Dick Benyon,"that you think it''s possible she''ll marry him?"
19752You do n''t suppose he''s going into retirement without a display of fireworks? 19752 You do n''t suppose he''s really fainting, my dear, do you?
19752You do n''t understand a bit, do you?
19752You do want her for that? 19752 You go to Ashwood?"
19752You know Dick''s gone in too?
19752You know Henstead?
19752You know what I mean? 19752 You mean that that''s at the bottom of the trouble?"
19752You mean that?
19752You mean----?
19752You really think so, Jimmy?
19752You think he''s like that?
19752You think it all right?
19752You understand? 19752 You were always very frank, were n''t you?"
19752You were pleased, were n''t you, to- night?
19752You wo n''t kiss my lips?
19752You would n''t have me risk another of those damned strokes, would you?
19752You''ll forget it all when we''re settled down at-- where was it?--Torquay or somewhere-- in our villa, like two old tabby- cats sitting in the sun? 19752 You''ll never come back, will you?"
19752You''re going to Dick''s on Friday, are n''t you?
19752You''re sorry?
19752You''re very gay, I suppose?
19752You''ve got a thousand? 19752 You''ve heard of our difference with poor Dick Benyon?"
19752You''ve read his speech?
19752Your mark? 19752 ''So am I,''I told him;''but where''s the harm? 19752 77, honest and inglorious? 19752 77, thus splendidly championed, vindicated, and almost sanctified? 19752 77?
19752A moment later she went on,"What does it all come to, after all?
19752About what?"
19752After a pause of a minute or two Quisanté said,"Cried about it?
19752Again he leant forward and said almost in a whisper,"May thinks I''m done for?"
19752Am I to sit in judgment on my husband?
19752An old promise too?
19752And are you in love with him?"
19752And he has n''t?"
19752And on the other side?
19752And then you must-- Oh, why do you?"
19752And though friends were all very well, yet where was the use of them if a man deprived himself of all the sources of entertaining conversation?
19752And to Mr. Foster she said,"They must elect him, they ca n''t help it, can they?"
19752And why was he rebellious?
19752And, once again, what was Lady May Quisanté thinking of?
19752Are we never to discuss the obvious or to deplore the inevitable?
19752Are we wanted, though?"
19752Are you contemptuous?
19752As a help, I mean?"
19752At the new- learnt chance of that happening, how did she feel?
19752Available?"
19752Banker and client, debtor and creditor, actor and audience?
19752Baxter?"
19752Baxter?"
19752Baxter?"
19752But Jimmy did n''t?"
19752But did she repent?
19752But had she ever so felt as to be confident that if Omnipotence had offered to undo the past, she would have had the past undone?
19752But has n''t May been trying to convert you?"
19752But how can I change?"
19752But if she were quite different in her heart?
19752But presently he said, with a half- embarrassed, half- vexed laugh,"Need we sit so far from one another?"
19752But swift came the question-- Was he wrong?
19752But then, as she had hinted to Morewood, what of life?
19752But then, what will he do to other people?"
19752But you forgive me, do n''t you?"
19752But, as it is, what''s left?
19752But-- well, you can argue against what a man does, but what''s the use arguing against what he is?"
19752Can none of you do anything with him?"
19752Coming up to her he said,"I know you want to be alone, do n''t you?"
19752Could Quisanté not only make himself live but make Aunt Maria live too?
19752DONE FOR?
19752DONE FOR?
19752Dean?"
19752Dick was not a fool; here ended his likeness to Quisanté; here surely ought to end his sympathy with that aspiring person?
19752Did gentlemen need to have the proper thing pointed out to them?
19752Did he feel himself a mere tool, always an outsider, in the end friendless?
19752Did he mean to win Henstead with that?
19752Did his moments always end like that?
19752Did she go to Manitoba?"
19752Did she really love him?
19752Did she repent?
19752Did the contemptible always follow in a flash on the entrancing?
19752Did they fade before a breath, like the frailest flower?
19752Did they not see it for themselves and do it?
19752Did you ever hear of what Dick calls the Crusade?
19752Do n''t I earn that by my thousand a year?"
19752Do n''t you know what I mean?
19752Do n''t you see?
19752Do n''t you think so?"
19752Do you suppose she''d ever have taken him if he''d been going to keep quiet?
19752Do you think you have?"
19752Does any duly qualified person wish to answer the question?"
19752Does he think my husband ill?"
19752Entirely in concession to him-- for the subject had passed from her own thoughts-- she asked,"Well, how''s your genius going on?"
19752FOR LACK OF LOVE?
19752FOR LACK OF LOVE?
19752Fingering the prospectus carelessly, she asked,"I suppose it sets out all the wonderful merits of the Alethea, does n''t it?
19752For what was the meaning of it to her, declared by her perverse determination to keep it there and plain enough to her husband''s quick wit?
19752Foster?"
19752Had Alexander Quisanté''s chisel altered the features beyond recognition and till true identity was gone?
19752Had he divined the thought which the Dean''s talk had put into her head?
19752Had he not asked her to dinner, had he not brought her to the Imperial League banquet, had he not incited Lady Richard to have her at Ashwood?
19752Had not Japhet himself been understood to be reconsidering his political opinions?
19752Has he said it to you?"
19752Have you got the money?"
19752He almost won her; his soft"Can you love me?"
19752He asked her abruptly,"You''ll go to Henstead and help him, I suppose?"
19752He leant over a little nearer to her and asked,"Have you had any talk with my wife about it?"
19752He paused and added impatiently,"Have you no influence over him?
19752He paused for a moment before he said,"You wo n''t go, I suppose?"
19752He reaches me still from where he is-- Ah, and what is he doing?
19752He''d saved out of what he got for the game, eh?"
19752He''s not strong though, is he?"
19752He''s to have your seat, is n''t he?"
19752Her voice had become troubled again; she was very anxious for her husband''s success; but was she anxious about something else too?
19752Here was happiness for her and for him, but where else?
19752How do we get governed even as well as we do?"
19752How should he be, when both parties contemptuously showed his dear Crusade the door?
19752How were the scales to be held, which way did the balance incline?
19752I do n''t eat many of those, do you?"
19752I have n''t spoilt your life as well as my own?
19752I hope he''s going to keep quiet after this?"
19752I hope you see my point of view as well as his, Lady May?"
19752I once thought of him as a mountain range; that''s fine- sounding and dignified, is n''t it?
19752I ought to live in gilded halls and scatter largesse, ought n''t I?"
19752I prefer to call it inevitable, do n''t you, Lady Mildmay?"
19752I suppose my own aunt''ll be still more anxious, and my own wife too?"
19752I suppose, as you''re on the war- path, you wo n''t come over?"
19752I talk to Miss Quisanté-- You''ve met her?
19752I wonder if you understand that?"
19752I''m not happy about it; how can I be happy about it?
19752If he felt all this for Aunt Maria, what would he not feel for the world, and for that wife of his?
19752If that happened, how would she feel?
19752Is he interested in it?"
19752Is it fate?
19752Is it really two years ago?
19752Is n''t the hope of that worth something?"
19752Is sincerity just stupidity?"
19752It might be sin to wish him dead; but was it sin to wish him either alive or dead, either in vigour or at rest?
19752It was bad enough; who could tell when it might become worse?
19752It was on the tip of his tongue to say again"Your husband''s?"
19752It would change the centre of my life, would n''t it?
19752It would n''t have lasted?
19752Like Quisanté?
19752Make a note of that, will you?"
19752Marchmont''s words had brought back what Quisanté could be; surely a man''s best must be what he really and truly is?
19752May Gaston was silent for a moment; then she said meditatively,"Oh, do n''t you think so?
19752May had a sense of treachery in listening, but how should she not listen?
19752Meanwhile let''s be----""Friends?"
19752Must I give myself, my own self, too?
19752Must I lose that for him?"
19752Must the outlines of that picture be followed if-- well, if Sandro was to live?
19752Need it fall?
19752No time to think it all over then?
19752Now do n''t you, Miss Quisanté?"
19752Old Foster caught him by the wrist, crying with a laugh,"Why, Doctor, what are you doing here?
19752Old Foster ran in again, calling,"Are you ready, sir?"
19752Only the other night, as Sir Winterton drove by, one of them shouted out,''Where''s Susy Sinnett?''"
19752Or could n''t I?
19752Or had she a little misunderstood the mere man?
19752Or is it possible that I loved him without knowing it, and hated him sometimes just because of that?
19752Or is it that in the end there''s a-- a solution of sympathy, a break somewhere, so that you stop just short of finding them absolutely satisfying?"
19752Or was she coming to think as he did, and to ask little concerning honesty?
19752Or were the doctors idiots?
19752Presently he asked,"Did I say anything wrong?"
19752Quisanté seconded her invitation with more than adequate enthusiasm; if Marchmont were converted to him, who could still be obstinate?
19752Quisanté?"
19752Quisanté?"
19752Quisanté?"
19752Real love is so beautifully undiscriminating, is n''t it?
19752Relicts, is n''t it?
19752Shall I hear of all he''s done some day?
19752Shall I use my discretion?"
19752She acquiesced indeed( as who would not?)
19752She laughed again, asking bitterly,"Does God forbid what Alexander wants-- except one thing?
19752She leant forward, asking in a lower voice,"Do they hurt you?"
19752She rose, gathering her lace scarf closer round her neck, and saying,"Do you hear the wood crying for us?
19752She said to herself,"Supposing this is true, or that more than this is true, supposing his heart is unsound, what does it mean to me?"
19752She''s not born a nurse; and how in the devil''s name is she to be expected to love him?"
19752Should she say that he would not tell anything to the House of Commons for many days, probably not ever, that his voice would not be heard there?
19752Six to four?
19752So it is; and since it is so, how can I come to you?
19752Surely a man facing death could have forgotten all this?
19752Take me to some infernal invalids''place, full of bath- chairs, and walk beside mine, eh?"
19752Talking''s no use, is it?"
19752The change came at Ashwood?"
19752The friendly task performed, Morewood went on,"You''re friends again, are n''t you?"
19752Then do n''t you understand?
19752Then she turned to him and said with a laugh,"How you hate him, do n''t you?"
19752Then, having shouted for Quisanté, would they not in the peaceful obscurity of the ballot put their cross opposite Mildmay''s name?
19752These were the signs of one of his moments; but what brought about a moment now?
19752They expect us to win then?"
19752Tillman?"
19752Was Marchmont infallible, as Fanny had said?
19752Was all that to go, and to go on no great issue, but just because Sir Winterton was bluff and cheery and Lady Mildmay kind and sweet?
19752Was he thinking over the opportunity that offered, and the instrument that presented itself?
19752Was his image gone indeed?
19752Was it a characteristic of the man''s to produce these sudden and startling changes of mood towards himself?
19752Was it not conclusive as to the merits of that also?
19752Was it not then the part of a courageous man to face his instinctive wish, and to accept it boldly?
19752Was it possible that he was remembering the peculiar qualities of Mr. Japhet Williams?
19752Was n''t he splendid?"
19752Was n''t there?"
19752Was she blind, was she careless?
19752Was such a coincidence of opinion conclusive?
19752Was that leader to be Quisanté?
19752Was that possible?
19752Was the fault all hers?
19752Was the town to be judged by its rowdies?
19752Was there enough to acquit the other defendant who stood arraigned?
19752Was there no possibility of compromise?
19752We''ve played fair anyhow-- pretty fair, have n''t we?"
19752Well, do n''t I know that every now and then I-- I do n''t see those either?"
19752Well, shall I get one with five hundred a year?"
19752Were a few ribald cries and the folly of a wrong- headed old Japhet Williams to outweigh all their loyalty and devotion?
19752What are the personal considerations?"
19752What are you going there for?"
19752What are you thinking about?
19752What are you?"
19752What became of the girl?
19752What became of the man, Dan?"
19752What did that mean?
19752What do you mean?"
19752What does he care about it?"
19752What does she think, though?
19752What had he said?
19752What is it they call widows on tombstones and in the_ Times_?
19752What mark?
19752What purpose, then, did Mrs. Baxter''s traditional motherliness serve?
19752What should be his course then?
19752What sort of life promised to form itself out of this state of affairs?
19752What was left then?
19752What was the good of telling you?"
19752What was the meaning of it?
19752What was there in the mention of the Alethea to disturb a conversation so harmonious?
19752What was this strangeness of which she spoke?
19752What would Mrs. Baxter or Lady Richard have made of him at the times when he woke to greatness?
19752What would Weston Marchmont think of the affair?
19752What''s Sandro got to do with your Church?
19752What''s left now?
19752What''s the good of reading a man''s puff of his own wares?
19752What, now?
19752When the end came, what would he be?
19752Where was the radiance of triumph that had lit up her face as she signalled to them from the platform?
19752Where''s Quisanté?"
19752Who asks a lawyer to disbelieve his own client, who asks a citizen to be extreme to mark what is done amiss in his country''s quarrel?
19752Who could blame Lady Richard for murmuring,"There, my dear, now you see!"?
19752Who could doubt his sincerity, who question the injured honour that rang like a trumpet through his words?
19752Who could not congratulate him, who could not praise him, who could not feel that he was a man to be proud of and a man to serve?
19752Who could then?
19752Who could wonder that Aunt Maria looked cynically indifferent?
19752Who shall I have?"
19752Who should be, if you were not?
19752Who would n''t?
19752Who''s coming?"
19752Why ca n''t Mildmay say it for himself?
19752Why did he snub them?
19752Why do you like him?"
19752Why do you want to tell me about him at all?"
19752Why should it?"
19752Why wo n''t he answer?"
19752Will he tell me himself, and watch my lips and my eyes as I listen to him?
19752Will they always brush off?"
19752Will you tell me that I may utterly disbelieve that at all events?"
19752Williams?"
19752Withdrawn, disclaimed, apologised for?
19752Would he pursue the Professor beyond Charon''s stream?
19752Yet he could not quite understand her look; did she pity him or did she entreat for herself?
19752Yet what did the man know, what could he do?
19752You brought him up; why did n''t you bring him up better?"
19752You call us Philistines now, I expect, do n''t you?"
19752You do n''t like him?"
19752You get on very well with him?"
19752You knew we had Jewish relations?"
19752You know how he treated us over the Crusade?
19752You know the difference, I mean?"
19752You know what I mean?"
19752You know what those fools of doctors say?"
19752You like or dislike a novel, perhaps; but you do n''t like or dislike-- oh, what shall I say?
19752You must see that?"
19752You remember you told me about it?"
19752You say a lot of people''ll vote for us because Sir Winterton would n''t let Lady Mildmay come to the town?"
19752You''ll say just a word to them from the steps, sir?
19752You''ll say just a word?
19752You''ll take a small profit, I suppose?
40837A friend?
40837A good dinner and your wife''s smiles were of more consequence to you than England''s prestige with the Sultan,--oh?
40837A romance?
40837Against Ella Laing?
40837Ah, the same lame story?
40837Ah, you did not enter?
40837Ah, you will try, will you not?
40837All?
40837Alone?
40837Always?
40837Am I to understand that you refuse to tell me anything?
40837And I presume I may say that there is no rupture of diplomatic negotiations with St Petersburg?
40837And did you not succeed in breaking asunder this mysterious bond?
40837And even if that were so, is it such a very remarkable fact that a man should carry a seal?
40837And he has been here?
40837And his profession?
40837And how have you employed your time?
40837And is yours a paying profession?
40837And my assassin would have been the woman I love, I suppose, you are going to tell me?
40837And no incident other than what you have related occurred at the Foreign Office? 40837 And she captivated you, eh?"
40837And what causes you to believe this?
40837And what do you intend doing?
40837And what have you discovered?
40837And what is Sonia doing at present?
40837And what is that?
40837And what of Beck?
40837And where did you find this seal?
40837And you actually accuse me without the slightest foundation?
40837And you expect me to again repose confidence in you, notwithstanding your steady refusal to explain anything?
40837And you find it an adventurous game-- eh?
40837And you forgot that in your escritoire there remained the stolen agreement?
40837And you got ten years?
40837And you wish me to pay toll like the others?
40837Andrew Beck?
40837Andrew Beck?
40837Another aunt-- eh?
40837Anything else?
40837Anything further?
40837Anything more?
40837Are you aware whether Mr Deedes had any knowledge that the deceased was his rival for Miss Laing''s hand?
40837Are you certain of this; have you absolute proof?
40837Are you certain that the servant''s suspicions were devoid of foundation?
40837Are you ready to sacrifice your own home and husband in order to ascertain the truth regarding a crime?
40837At seven- thirty?
40837At what scandal do you hint?
40837Back again, then?
40837Before marriage?
40837But can diplomacy do nothing to avert the catastrophe?
40837But can not I help you to search and investigate?
40837But can we be invaded?
40837But did she tell you anything?
40837But does not London swarm with Russian agents?
40837But how came you possessed of the original of the convention?
40837But how can you account for giving back to me a blank sheet of paper in an envelope secured by a forged seal?
40837But how did you become acquainted with her?
40837But how do you know I intend to marry her?
40837But how were you aware that Russia was our enemy?
40837But if circumstances have so conspired to produce a problem, why not remain patient until its natural elucidation is effected? 40837 But is it not very strange that she should have left the stolen convention behind?
40837But is it safe for you to return?
40837But is not the assassination of those who have paid for guidance into Germany quite unjustifiable?
40837But surely I may be permitted to clear myself?
40837But the Press assist us in many ways, and if you are averse to a statement in the House why not make one to_ The Times_, or to a news agency? 40837 But what can have induced Ella to associate with her?"
40837But what did he do-- why was he down here?
40837But what do you know about her intentions?
40837But what will happen?
40837But why did you masquerade in that manner?
40837But why do you remain here, in a peaceable household?
40837But you can manage to give me a false passport for her, ca n''t you?
40837But you knew something of its whereabouts?
40837But you will be patient, will you not?
40837By what means?
40837By whom?
40837By whom?
40837Can not you confide in me? 40837 Can you assign any motive whatever for their flight?"
40837Can you never again trust me?
40837Candidly speaking, have you any suspicion that Dudley Ogle was her lover?
40837Could he have seen the envelope sticking out of your pocket?
40837Did Her Highness pass under another name in London?
40837Did I not tell you that she was concealing the truth?
40837Did I not, a moment ago, promise you I would never again deceive you by word or action? 40837 Did I?"
40837Did he know who you really were?
40837Did he open it?
40837Did he protest his innocence?
40837Did n''t expect me, I suppose, old fellow?
40837Did not Dudley trace my writing?
40837Did she have any rouge or anything of that sort in her possession?
40837Did she say where she was going?
40837Did she tell you anything?
40837Did you ever suspect him to be a spy?
40837Did you expect he would be there?
40837Did you fear that the papers might have been examined in transit?
40837Did you speak?
40837Do I know him?
40837Do her friends know of her hiding- place?
40837Do n''t know?
40837Do the frontier- guards ever trouble you?
40837Do you actually suspect poor Dudley of having been in the pay of the Russian Government?
40837Do you allege that the pair actually murdered him?
40837Do you deny having written that letter?
40837Do you deny it?
40837Do you know her intimately?
40837Do you know her whereabouts? 40837 Do you know her?"
40837Do you know him, sir? 40837 Do you know him?
40837Do you know the words?
40837Do you know the-- the girl who is to be his wife?
40837Do you know who was his friend at the Hall?
40837Do you live here, in this house, alone?
40837Do you mean, sir, that madame has-- has run away?
40837Do you refuse to do what I ask?
40837Do you tell me that Ella Laing is not what she represents herself to be?
40837Do you think they went up to the Hall when they went out walking?
40837Do you think they will discover the cause of poor Dudley''s death?
40837Does she live here?
40837Ella?
40837Even at the cost of the life of the man you deceived?
40837Far from here?
40837For what reason was it desired to imitate my handwriting?
40837For what reason?
40837For what?
40837Fortunately for us-- eh?
40837Found it?
40837From whom?
40837Geoffrey,she repeated,"why are you angry with me without cause?"
40837Going? 40837 Going?"
40837Has anything serious occurred, do you know?
40837Has it never occurred to you that I alone can free you from the bond that has held you aloof from your husband?
40837Has my wife returned, Juckes?
40837Has my wife taken her jewels?
40837Has she a lover?
40837Has she explained, then, the character of the secret existing between herself and Ogle?
40837Has-- has she actually dared to marry you?
40837Have I not already told you that he was not your enemy, Geoffrey?
40837Have I, then, no cause to object to your acquaintance with this man?
40837Have they ever been in Russia?
40837Have those urgent dispatches come in from Berlin, Deedes?
40837Have we not had ample evidence of that lately?
40837Have you any further question to ask Mr Deedes?
40837Have you any idea whether Dudley had any occupation?
40837Have you any knowledge where she is?
40837Have you any reason to suppose, Miss Laing, that Mr Ogle''s declaration of love to you had aroused the enmity of Mr Deedes?
40837Have you any reason to suspect that he was a victim of foul play?
40837Have you any suspicion that he had an enemy?
40837Have you been home long?
40837Have you been shopping, as usual?
40837Have you ever seen Dudley with this in his hand?
40837Have you made a_ post- mortem_?
40837Have you no idea of the reason?
40837Have you no idea who this strange fellow is?
40837Have you not already seen the careful attempts made to copy the formation of my letters and figures?
40837Have you not the slightest clue to the culprit, even now?
40837Have you quarrelled?
40837Have you seen them?
40837He complained of no pain during the evening, I suppose?
40837He did this because he loved you?
40837He dined here?
40837He is an assassin, then?
40837He never told you that he had any enemy, I suppose?
40837He sent you here?
40837He spoke to you casually in the street, I suppose?
40837He wished you to marry him?
40837How came she to confide this secret of hers to you?
40837How can you give me my freedom?
40837How can you tell?
40837How could our enemies have learned the truth?
40837How did he take it? 40837 How do you know that?"
40837How do you know? 40837 How long have you known the deceased?"
40837How long must I remain in doubt and ignorance?
40837How much?
40837How, pray, are you aware that any document has been stolen?
40837How?
40837How?
40837How?
40837I shall therefore be spared the indignity of having my house searched, sha''n''t I?
40837I thought you said once you would like to go to Russia?
40837I wired you last night, and expected you by the 9:18 this morning, Why did you not come?
40837If I fly you will not follow?
40837If you intend to marry her it concerns you also, does it not?
40837In cipher?
40837In my interests? 40837 In other words, Ogle has paid the death penalty, eh?"
40837In the enemy''s camp-- eh?
40837In what manner?
40837In what way do you suspect him of being my enemy?
40837In what way is she my enemy?
40837In what way?
40837In what way?
40837Into the country? 40837 Is Diamond Eyes a pet name?"
40837Is his name Juckes?
40837Is it not best that I should know the truth?
40837Is it not strange that they should both have fled in this extraordinary manner?
40837Is it not strange that you, of all men, should be in Skerstymone?
40837Is it not your duty to the people to allay their apprehensions of a coming war?
40837Is it on Foreign Office business that you are compelled to leave us?
40837Is it really wise of you to make a woman vain?
40837Is it then absolutely necessary that you should attain this end?
40837Is it true that she sometimes goes into the low quarters of the city and gives money to the poor?
40837Is it wise to run such risk?
40837Is n''t Ella''s company sufficient inducement?
40837Is not that a rather curious fact-- if true?
40837Is she such a mysterious person, then? 40837 Is she such a well- known person?"
40837Is that an act such as can be overlooked without explanation?
40837Is that the absolute truth?
40837Is that your wife?
40837Is the death of a friend any account when the interests of the country are at stake? 40837 Is the dispatch from Paris very remarkable?"
40837Is there anything more I can say, your Lordship?
40837Is there no scandal regarding her?
40837Is this the route you take with the fugitives?
40837Is your love for me so utterly dead, then, that you should say this?
40837Is your man absolutely trustworthy?
40837M''sieur gives no card?
40837May I ring for the servants?
40837May I use your own words, your Lordship?
40837Mr Deedes was your lover, was n''t he?
40837My explanation?
40837No accident is reported in the papers, I suppose?
40837No proofs?
40837Not at home?
40837Now, have you any suspicion that any secret affection existed between her and the deceased?
40837Now, what explanation have you to offer?
40837Occupation? 40837 Of what do you suspect her-- of a crime?"
40837Of what kind?
40837Of what? 40837 Of what?"
40837Oh?
40837Our people at home have recently been playing an amusing little game at your expense, have n''t they?
40837Perhaps you will recognise this picture?
40837She acknowledged herself unfaithful to you, I presume?
40837She is your leader-- eh?
40837Some of the facts certainly point to such a conclusion; but, now tell me, did Ogle enter your room at the Foreign Office on that day?
40837Something shady, oh? 40837 Sonia?"
40837Stifling hot, is n''t it? 40837 Surely no misfortune of yours is due to her?"
40837Surely they can not be already known?
40837Suspect?
40837Tell me,I urged earnestly,"do you know anything of her movements?
40837That does n''t appear like perfect confidence, does it?
40837That woman is not in England, surely?
40837The deceased was your friend, I believe?
40837The result would be detrimental?
40837The woman who passed as Mrs Laing was not, of course, your mother?
40837Then it was actually this message of yours that prevented war?
40837Then the writing is yours, eh?
40837Then war is not declared?
40837Then what is your contention?
40837Then who was it?
40837Then why did this woman-- what''s her name?--Ella Laing,he said, referring to the letter,"why did she allege foul play?"
40837Then why did you not tell him of Mr Ogle''s declaration?
40837Then why did you practise such base deception?
40837Then why do you seek revenge?
40837Then you are not engaged at the present moment? 40837 Then you decline to allow any explanation to be given?"
40837Then you do not wish to live?
40837Then you entirely agree with me?
40837Then you intend to denounce me?
40837Then you regretted?
40837Then you still love me, Geoffrey?
40837Then you still suspect me of being a spy?
40837Then, as far as you are concerned, you are unable to determine the cause of death?
40837There are some remains of the food left, I presume?
40837This has, of course, not been out of your possession, Deedes?
40837To Sonia?
40837To Warnham?
40837To be your companion-- eh?
40837To whom shall we make our statement?
40837Unnecessary? 40837 Upon what subject?"
40837Upon what?
40837Was it she who alleged that your friend Ogle was the victim of foul play?
40837Was it sufficient to cause death?
40837Was there any reason why he should call for you at the Foreign Office and ask you to lunch with him? 40837 Was there anything remarkable in that fact?"
40837Was there, as far as you are aware, any affection between them?
40837Was this the only occasion you had met?
40837We have not met, madame, for quite an age-- three months, is it?
40837Well, Denman,I said,"you do n''t seem to grow very much older, eh?"
40837Well, and what do you allege?
40837Well, sir,he exclaimed, with an expression of displeasure when he saw me,"to what, pray, do I owe this intrusion?"
40837Well, what else?
40837Well, what if I have?
40837Well, what is it? 40837 Well, what is it?"
40837Well,I exclaimed at last,"where does this aunt live-- at Highgate?"
40837Well,asked Cargill, turning to me with a smile a moment later,"have you been reading all about her?"
40837Well,he exclaimed calmly at last,"what else?"
40837Well?
40837Well?
40837Well?
40837Well?
40837Well?
40837Well?
40837Were you alone the whole time?
40837Were you aware of any-- er-- unpleasant fact prior to marriage?
40837Were you aware that Ella was acquainted with her?
40837Were you with him at the day of his death?
40837What are ambassadors for but to avert such catastrophes as this?
40837What are they?
40837What are your plans?
40837What can I do to give you proof that I love no other man?
40837What can I offer?
40837What causes you to believe this?
40837What did I say? 40837 What did you do after lunch?"
40837What do you know of Diamond Eyes?
40837What do you know of him?
40837What do you mean, Ella? 40837 What do you mean?
40837What do you mean? 40837 What do you mean?
40837What do you mean?
40837What do you mean?
40837What do you mean?
40837What do you mean?
40837What do you mean?
40837What do you think of Ella''s statement?
40837What else?
40837What has happened? 40837 What has she said?
40837What is his name?
40837What is is your explanation, sir?
40837What is it?
40837What is its nature?
40837What is its nature?
40837What is that man crying? 40837 What is the best course?"
40837What is the cause of death?
40837What kind of crimes were they?
40837What kind of man was he?
40837What made you think that, eh?
40837What offence has he committed?
40837What other excuse?
40837What shall we do with him, little mother?
40837What the deuce do you mean, Denman? 40837 What time in the day did she call?
40837What was Beck persuading you to do?
40837What was his Christian name?
40837What was his name?
40837What was his name?
40837What was his name?
40837What was it; tell me?
40837What was it?
40837What was its object?
40837What was the name of the man you loved?
40837What was the object of your visit? 40837 What were these facts?"
40837What will she do in return?
40837What''s her name?
40837What''s the trouble? 40837 What''s this, I wonder?"
40837What, do you not remember?
40837What, then, is the best course to pursue?
40837What?
40837When did my wife pack those two trunks she took with her this evening?
40837When did she go?
40837When we were at Pont Street this afternoon, Helmholtz was there, was n''t he?
40837When you referred to it, what was her attitude?
40837Where are you from, Lawley?
40837Where did you find it?
40837Where does the Grand Duchess live?
40837Where from?
40837Where have you been to- day?
40837Where have you been?
40837Where is his hat?
40837Where is she now?
40837Where is she?
40837Where is she?
40837Where''s her father? 40837 Where?"
40837Who have placed us in power but that public?
40837Who was his father?
40837Who was the man you loved?
40837Who was the message from?
40837Who?
40837Whose aid have you sought? 40837 Why are you so anxious to have a complete record of my doings?"
40837Why are you so certain of this?
40837Why are you so confident?
40837Why are you so confident?
40837Why can not you tell me the truth instead of evading it? 40837 Why did he do so?"
40837Why did he go to London?
40837Why did she utter such unfounded calumnies?
40837Why did she want to leave secretly?
40837Why did you associate with a woman of such doubtful reputation as Sonia Korolenko?
40837Why did you leave me and cast aside my wedding- ring?
40837Why did you not accompany him?
40837Why did you not tell me that it was in your keeping?
40837Why is Renouf in Paris? 40837 Why never?"
40837Why not in daylight?
40837Why not leave that wretched affair to the police and secure our own happiness?
40837Why not make an official declaration?
40837Why not?
40837Why should I hate her?
40837Why should I? 40837 Why should the happiness of both of us be wrecked by a mere misunderstanding?"
40837Why should you strive to elucidate this mystery alone, now that you are my wife?
40837Why, what''s the matter, old chap?
40837Why, what''s the matter?
40837Why? 40837 Why?
40837Why? 40837 Why?"
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Why?
40837Will England be invaded and battles fought here in the manner prophetic writers have foretold?
40837Will you break the dreadful news to her?
40837Will you never forgive?
40837Will you try?
40837With the document in your pocket?
40837With whom?
40837Would you not call the loss of the man you love, misfortune?
40837Yes,he answered, adding after a moment''s reflection,"but why have you come to me now that we are officially at daggers drawn?"
40837Yet you declare that you never loved him?
40837You absolutely refuse?
40837You anticipate I am doomed, then?
40837You believe that she met this mysterious individual-- eh?
40837You believe, however, that Ogle was a spy?
40837You do n''t believe her lies about Miss Laing, eh?
40837You do n''t believe, then, he has been a victim of foul play?
40837You fully understand the position, Deedes?
40837You guarantee to put them on German soil, or bring foreigners into Russia for a fixed sum?
40837You had a reason? 40837 You have no suspicion whatever that the deceased had an enemy?"
40837You have not, then, heard from her?
40837You intend to avenge Dudley''s death?
40837You knew him, then?
40837You knows Mr Macandrew what''s steward for Mr Thornbury? 40837 You mean to imply that you are unworthy of the love of an honest man?"
40837You suspect some person of having been guilty of murder?
40837You taunt me, do you?
40837You think so?
40837You want me to believe that he held you irrevocably in his power, I suppose?
40837You will perhaps deny that here, within six yards of this very spot, you stopped and burst forth into tears?
40837You will remember that the dummy envelope you took from your safe bore an imitation of your private seal?
40837You''re not jealous, are you?
40837Your emancipation?
40837Your question? 40837 A lady?
40837A message from your indefatigable chief?"
40837A private inquiry agent?"
40837Again, why did Ella visit her?
40837Against yourself?"
40837Ah, shall I ever forget that night?
40837Ah?"
40837And how have you shown your gratitude?"
40837And she has gone, you say?"
40837Anything startling?"
40837Are the symptoms those of poisoning?"
40837At which table did you sit?"
40837But is your business so very urgent?"
40837But surely you do not suspect me of being a spy?"
40837But was he unknown?
40837But what do you know of her?"
40837But wo n''t you come into the parlour, sir?"
40837But, tell me,"he added gravely, a moment later,"why do you interest yourself in her welfare?
40837Can you ever forgive me?
40837Can you never have confidence in me?"
40837Can you, now you know of my unworthiness, ever say that you love me as truly as you did in those bygone days at` The Nook''?
40837Could I leave without seeing her?
40837Did not this fact force home once again the truth of Sonia''s disregarded denunciation that Ella was not my friend?
40837Did you overhear their conversation while driving them to Horsham?"
40837Do speak to me?"
40837Do you deny it?"
40837Do you fear that the same tragic fate that has overtaken Dudley will overtake you?"
40837Do you know her past?"
40837Does my wife use any carmine to give artificial colour to her cheeks?"
40837Dudley''s murder?"
40837Facing Sonia, she drew herself up haughtily, and demanded in French in a harsh, angry voice,--"To what, pray, do I owe this intrusion?
40837For what reason?"
40837Geoffrey, how are you?"
40837Going?"
40837Had Ogle been talking to her angrily, do you think?"
40837Has she been again weaving for your benefit any more of her tragic romances?
40837Has she given you her reasons for declaring that Ogle has been murdered?"
40837Have they gone?"
40837Have you any idea?"
40837Have you had any visitors down from London?"
40837Have you had bad news?"
40837Have you seen this alarming news?"
40837How can either of us forget?"
40837How could I place upon you-- the man who was all in all to me-- the stigma of having traitorously sold your country''s secrets?
40837How had I been able to bear the suspicion and suspense so long?
40837How should we be parted?"
40837How''s that?"
40837How, I wondered, had she borne the news of Dudley''s tragic and mysterious end?
40837How, I wondered, would she greet me when next we met?
40837How?"
40837I suppose you want an introduction to her-- eh?
40837I--""My lover?"
40837If Ella''s fears were well grounded, why had he been murdered, and by whom?
40837If a Foreign Minister allowed the Press and public to know all his doings, how could diplomacy be conducted?
40837If it is a rotten reed, what remains?
40837Is he really as impetuous and strange in private life as he is in public?"
40837Is his Excellency with you this evening?"
40837Is it not in your own hand?"
40837It is all very well for people to talk about England''s maritime power; but is it what we believe it to be?
40837It was a romantic story that Sonia told me, but what evidence did I possess that she was actually a political refugee?
40837Jolly gentleman, is n''t he?
40837No doubt she has told you a most touching story of persecution, and all that; but can anyone be surprised if our police endeavour to arrest her?
40837Now, from your own observations, have you seen anything that would lead you to the belief that he loved Miss Laing?"
40837Of what?"
40837On the card was the pencilled query,"Can you come and lunch with me?"
40837On what ground were your suspicions founded?"
40837Perhaps there''s been a burglary at the Hall?"
40837Presently, however, the Prime Minister, turning to me, asked,--"Are any of the reporters your personal friends, Deedes?"
40837Presently, when Ella was again alone with me, her first question was,--"What bad news have you received, Geoffrey?"
40837Quick, ai n''t it?"
40837She likes you to dine with her, eh?"
40837She was a Nihilist, I suppose, or some interestingly romantic person of that sort, eh?
40837Suddenly he halted before me where I stood, and abruptly asked,--"What did you say was the name of that friend who lunched with you yesterday?"
40837Surely you can explain that?"
40837Surely you did n''t heed what she said, did you?"
40837Surely you have confidence in her, or you would not have asked her to be your wife?"
40837Tell me?"
40837That Ella is my enemy?"
40837The Coroner, to bring matters to a conclusion, asked,"Now, knowing Mr Ogle as intimately as you did, do you suspect that he might have been murdered?"
40837The Earl slightly raised his shaggy grey brows, then continued,--"How long have you known this friend?"
40837The arrival of the police in her house had apparently filled her with dread, for almost the first question she asked me was,--"Have they gone?
40837Then he slowly asked,--"Did you ever refer to those earlier incidents, such as the death of that young man Ogle?
40837Then she added quickly,--"But who told you?
40837Turning to me, he said,--"I believe I am right in assuming that you are engaged to be married to Miss Laing, am I not?"
40837Viennese society would suit you, would n''t it?"
40837Was he in the habit of doing this?"
40837Was not this the second time I had detected Ella walking alone with a man in lover- like attitude?
40837Was not, however, his refusal only what I might have expected?
40837We saw you?"
40837Well, it is, oh, so very difficult?"
40837Well, what ground has she for her allegation?"
40837Well, what was the allegation?
40837Were the words she had uttered lies, I wondered?
40837What can I do?"
40837What can I give?"
40837What character does Sonia Korolenko bear?"
40837What do you expect her to reveal?"
40837What do you fear?"
40837What do you know of Ella''s past?"
40837What do you mean?"
40837What have I done?"
40837What have I to lose?"
40837What is it?"
40837What makes you think so?"
40837What motive could he have, I wondered, in thus declaring that she had never loved me?
40837What of that?"
40837What of?"
40837What power do you hold over her, pray?"
40837What sort of a girl was she?
40837What story has she been telling you this time, eh?"
40837What was the name of this pretty Russian who made these mysterious allegations against Ella?"
40837When did she go out?"
40837Where did they go?"
40837Where did you get those flowers?"
40837Where did you obtain it?"
40837Where else have you been?"
40837Where shall we lunch?"
40837Who is he?"
40837Who is this young woman, Ella Laing, who at the inquest alleged murder?"
40837Who will believe such a woman?"
40837Who would believe it?"
40837Who''s the woman?"
40837Why did he not tell me?"
40837Why do you inquire about her past?"
40837Why should I strive for the happiness of one to whom I owe all my grief and despair?"
40837Why was the match broken off?"
40837Why?"
40837Why?"
40837Will Russia actually dare to challenge us?"
40837Will they search it?"
40837Yet had I not a right to demand full explanation of her extraordinary statement?
40837Yet, after all, is it not best to know now, instead of hereafter?"
40837You are quite certain of this?"
40837You decline to reveal to us the nature of your curious friendship with the Grand Duchess-- eh?"
40837You mean to rob me?"
40837You suspect him, of course, to be the man she met in Kensington Gardens?"
40837You understand?"
40837` Are you Mr Macandrew?''
40837cried Beck;"what''s the matter?"
40837cried Ella, starting up in alarm and rushing towards me,"what''s the matter?
40837had I not a right to seek the truth of her relations with this loud- spoken parvenu?
40837he asked, with a sorry endeavour to remain cool,"why are you all here?
40837what were they?"
40837you mean the daughter of Anton Korolenko who escaped from St Petersburg?--eh?"
5164What friend?
5164Where was he going?
5164Who says you do n''t take it with you?
5164''"How did I come here?"
5164''"Where am I?"
5164''''Ow was I to know that, Dr Glossop?
5164''A bundle?''
5164''A burnoose do you mean?''
5164''A stranger?''
5164''A woman?--Oh.--How do you mean?''
5164''A young man?''
5164''Acquaint!--whom should I acquaint?''
5164''After the ball,--eh?''
5164''Ai n''t yer seein''someone in authority?''
5164''Ai n''t you got no money?''
5164''All night you have wanted me,--do I not know?
5164''All of which is granted, but-- how far was it from Hammersmith Workhouse?''
5164''Am I going mad?''
5164''Am I not coming to it?
5164''Am I to understand, Mr Atherton, that this has been done with your cognisance?
5164''And did you propose?''
5164''And do you regard her as a sister?
5164''And do you suppose that I would have sat still while a cat was being killed for my-- edification?''
5164''And do you suppose that my removal will clear the path for you?''
5164''And he would hang?''
5164''And pray what was your notion of an illustration?''
5164''And should anyone come upon me while engaged in these nefarious proceedings,--for instance, should I encounter Mr Lessingham himself, what then?''
5164''And then what followed?''
5164''And then?''
5164''And what diabolical mischief do you imagine that he proposes to do to her?''
5164''And what did you say?''
5164''And where do you think they have been taken?''
5164''And where is Miss Lindon now?''
5164''And you are Mr-- Who?--how did you come here?
5164''And you did n''t take the cabman''s number?''
5164''And you,--are you kind?
5164''And you,--do you think marriage would colour your convictions?''
5164''And, once more, sir, who are you?''
5164''And, pray, what is the common feeling which we have for him?''
5164''Anyone in there?''
5164''Are you cross with me?''
5164''Are you deaf and dumb?
5164''Are you not his friend?''
5164''Are you off?--can I give you a lift?''
5164''Are you serious?''
5164''Are you sure that the ward is full?''
5164''Are you sure that this man, Robert Holt, is the same person whom, as you put it, you saw coming out of my drawing- room window?''
5164''Are you sure this is Miss Linden''s dress?''
5164''Are you sure those were the words he used?''
5164''Are you sure, Atherton, that there is no one at the back?''
5164''Are you sure?''
5164''Are you sure?''
5164''Are you sure?''
5164''Are you sure?''
5164''Are you the guard of the 12.0 out from St Pancras?''
5164''Are you the sort of clerk who is always out of a situation?
5164''Are you?
5164''As-- how?''
5164''Atherton, what is the matter with you?--Have I done something to offend you too?''
5164''Atherton, what is your actual position with reference to Marjorie Lindon?''
5164''Before all men?''
5164''Before, or after death?''
5164''Beg pardon, sir, but was that a Harab you was a- talking about to the Hinspector?''
5164''But I do n''t understand what cause there has been for secrecy,--why should there have been any secrecy from the first?''
5164''But as yet you are not one.--Is my cause so hopeless?''
5164''But have you acquainted no one with the cause of your non- attendance?''
5164''But how shall I open it if it is locked?''
5164''But if mademoiselle is so tired, will she not permit me to assist her?''
5164''But what am I to do?''
5164''But what am I to do?''
5164''But what has become of Miss Lindon?''
5164''But what is the taradiddle?--don''t you see I''m burning?''
5164''But why?''
5164''But, if there''s room, are n''t they bound to let me in?''
5164''But-- where?
5164''By the way, what was the secret history, this morning, of that little incident of the cockroach?''
5164''By what spell shall I prevent him?''
5164''Can I trust you to respect my confidence?''
5164''Can I trust you?''
5164''Can you describe him?''
5164''Can you describe the person?''
5164''Can you not guess?''
5164''Can you tell me what were the exact tenets of the worshippers of Isis?''
5164''Certainly I am;--but would you, on that account, wish me to share his political opinions, even though I believe them to be wrong?''
5164''Champnell, have n''t you got that dashed hat of yours yet?
5164''Come, my lad, this wo n''t do!--Wake up!--What''s the matter?''
5164''Coming with me?--I am delighted to hear it,--but where?''
5164''Could you describe the two men?''
5164''Did I tell you last night about what took place yesterday morning,--about the adventure of my finding the man?''
5164''Did Marjorie tell you about the fellow she found in the street?''
5164''Did he take anything?''
5164''Did n''t I tell you to say that I did n''t wish to see him?''
5164''Did nothing happen to attract your attention between the young lady''s going back into the house and the coming out of this young man?''
5164''Did the noise keep on?''
5164''Did you acquaint your father with the addition to his household?''
5164''Did you hear anything?''
5164''Did you notice any signs of packing up?''
5164''Did you see him?''
5164''Did you see how he was dressed,--or, rather, undressed?''
5164''Did you think it was a woman?''
5164''Did your servants see him?''
5164''Do I understand that this announcement has been made to me as one of the public?''
5164''Do clerks come through the window?''
5164''Do n''t I tell you that I love her?''
5164''Do n''t tell fibs.--Something is the matter,--tell me what it is.--Is it that I am too early?''
5164''Do you always receive visitors in here?''
5164''Do you hear me?--do you hear what I say?--do you hear me, miss?''
5164''Do you know Paul Lessingham?''
5164''Do you know that as a fact?''
5164''Do you know this man?''
5164''Do you mean about the Arab?
5164''Do you mean that they say it''s full when it isn''t,--that they wo n''t let me in although there''s room?''
5164''Do you mean to say that you do n''t know that you were indebted for that to your Oriental friend?''
5164''Do you not feel for him the same as I?''
5164''Do you not run an equally great risk of being ruined by staying away?''
5164''Do you really mean that you take an interest in-- in my work?''
5164''Do you resent it?''
5164''Do you seek to catch me tripping?
5164''Do you swear that?''
5164''Do you think I ca n''t see that you know all about what Mr Holt has been telling us,--perhaps more about it than he knows himself?''
5164''Do you think he''s in a fit, miss?''
5164''Do you think so,--why?''
5164''Do you think that I ca n''t see your face and read in it the same thoughts which trouble me?
5164''Do you wish me to understand that you do come from Miss Lindon?''
5164''Do you yourself believe that she''ll be like that,--untouched, unchanged, unstained?''
5164''Do you-- do you believe in witchcraft?''
5164''Doctor, if there is any of that brandy left will you let me have it for my friend?''
5164''Does he strike you as being a-- foreigner?''
5164''Does she love another man?''
5164''Done much of this sort of thing?''
5164''Driver, where''s the casual ward?''
5164''Drunk?--dead?
5164''Due!--Yes, I was due,--but what does it matter?''
5164''Each time after you have returned from a late sitting in the House of Commons?''
5164''Excuse me, sir, but who''s the old gent?''
5164''Fanchette!--Is there something with us in the room?''
5164''Flown!--How?''
5164''Friends?''
5164''From a friend of mine?--Are you sure it was from a friend of mine?''
5164''From whom?''
5164''Gentlemen, I fear that I have here something which will distress you,--is not this Miss Lindon''s hair?''
5164''God save us!--who is that?''
5164''Had n''t the followers of Isis a-- what shall I say?--a sacred emblem?''
5164''Had n''t they an especial regard for some sort of a-- wasn''t it some sort of a-- beetle?''
5164''Has Mr Lindon no notion of how things stand between you?''
5164''Has he escaped?''
5164''Has he told you so?''
5164''Has n''t he been a great traveller?''
5164''Has that other young man gone?''
5164''Haunted?''
5164''Haunted?''
5164''Haunts me?''
5164''Have I offended you?''
5164''Have I seen whom?''
5164''Have you been spending the night in this-- wizard''s cave?''
5164''Have you forgotten that this is our dance?''
5164''Have you forgotten what I came for?''
5164''Have you got any brandy in the house?''
5164''Have you heard of Obi?''
5164''Have you hypnotised him?''
5164''Have you no home?''
5164''Have you now?''
5164''Have you seen her?''
5164''He has what, my lad?
5164''He is good to look at, Paul Lessingham,--is he not good to look at?''
5164''He shall never have her,--eh?''
5164''He went up the chimney, as all that kind of gentlemen do.--Why the deuce did you let him in when I told you not to?''
5164''He would be shamed?''
5164''He''s only one of the paupers,--has he any right to act as one of the officials?''
5164''Help me?--How?''
5164''His side is my side, and my side is his side;--you will be on our side?''
5164''Hollo, Holt, what''s the matter with you?
5164''Holt?--Is he an Englishman?''
5164''How am I to know what the thing''s called?
5164''How are you going to get a bed then?''
5164''How are you going to manage it,--have you got any money?''
5164''How close were you to him?''
5164''How do you know it''s his?''
5164''How far is it to Kensington?''
5164''How is it hard?
5164''How is it that you have forgotten that you asked me to come?--didn''t you mean it?''
5164''How long ago do you say this was?
5164''How long ago is it since you left?''
5164''How long ago was it?''
5164''How shall I find it?
5164''How was that?''
5164''How, then, shall I escape his righteous vengeance?
5164''How?''
5164''I am afraid that that I am not one of those persons who ever do appear to much advantage,--did I not tell you so last night?''
5164''I am by no means prepared to admit that I have this feeling which you attribute to me, but, even granting that I have, what then?''
5164''I am not a thief, I am an honest man,--why should I do this thing?''
5164''I am not disturbing you?''
5164''I am now going to show you that little experiment of which I was speaking!--You see that cat?''
5164''I beg your pardon, Marjorie, but this is of the nature of an unparalleled experience,--didn''t you hear something then?''
5164''I daresay.--Do you think I do n''t know you''ve been deceiving me all the time?''
5164''I fancy I have some faint recollection of your being so good as to say something of the kind, but-- where''s the application?''
5164''I know no more than the man in the moon,--how the dickens should I?
5164''I say, Atherton, have you seen Miss Lindon?''
5164''I say,''he remarked, not at all unreasonably,''where am I?''
5164''I see,--a new projectile.--How long is this race to continue between attack and defence?''
5164''I see.--Am I to understand that you do not choose to answer me, and that I am again to use my-- magic?''
5164''I see.--How did the thief escape,--did he, like the delineation, vanish into air?''
5164''I see.--It''s like that, is it?--Suppose she loved another man, what sort of feeling would you feel towards him?''
5164''I suppose I am.--Is anything harder than to be intruded on by an undesired, and unexpected, guest?''
5164''I suppose I shall.--You wo n''t mind being left alone?''
5164''I suppose that the marvels which are told of it are purely legendary?''
5164''I suppose that you did n''t keep a constant watch upon the premises?''
5164''I suppose there is no doubt that you did leave it open?''
5164''I suppose you have to keep this sort of thing secret?''
5164''I suppose, Mr Lessingham, that there is no doubt that this mysterious stranger was not himself an optical delusion?''
5164''I take it that you are a reminiscence of the Rue de Rabagas,--that, of course;--is it not of course?
5164''I thought that you were at the Duchess''?''
5164''I thought you looked as if you was a bit fresh.--What are yer goin''to do?''
5164''I want to know, Mr Stone, if, in the course of the day, you have issued any tickets to a person dressed in Arab costume?''
5164''I wish it were only a bee, I wish it were.--Sydney, do n''t you feel as if you were in the presence of evil?
5164''I''m going to the House of Commons,--won''t you come?''
5164''If I had spoken before?''
5164''If it was all bluff I never saw a better piece of acting,--and yet what sort of finger can such a precisian as St Paul have in such a pie?
5164''If what I guess is what you mean is not that a cause the more why silence would be unfair to her?''
5164''In Heaven''s name, what is the matter with you, man?
5164''In a sense, is n''t that in his favour?''
5164''In men''s clothing?''
5164''In the belief that a priest of Isis-- or anyone-- assumed after death the form of a scarabaeus?''
5164''In the very act of dying?''
5164''In what belief?''
5164''In what respect?''
5164''Indeed.--And pray how is this consummation which is so devoutly to be desired to be brought about?''
5164''Indeed?--What have you gone through?''
5164''Into whose arms,--a constable''s?''
5164''Is Arab with companion in train which left St Pancras at 13.0?
5164''Is Mr Lessingham ashamed of you?''
5164''Is he dead?''
5164''Is he dead?''
5164''Is he great?--well!--is he great,--Paul Lessingham?
5164''Is he mad?''
5164''Is it not sufficient to be yours?''
5164''Is it possible that you imagine that I came here to see something killed?''
5164''Is it some kind of an exhauster?''
5164''Is it yours?''
5164''Is not the fact that I do so pride myself proof that I am not likely to make assertions wildly,--proof, at any rate, to you?
5164''Is papa down yet?''
5164''Is that one of the facts with which you propose to tickle the public ear?''
5164''Is that so?''
5164''Is that so?--Will your past bear the fullest investigation?''
5164''Is that the meaning of the marks upon your neck?''
5164''Is that the only explanation which you have to offer?''
5164''Is there an empty chair?''
5164''Is there anybody in this house?
5164''Is this the person who wished to see me?''
5164''It''s a bargain?''
5164''It''s you, Mr Phillips, is it?''
5164''It?--What do you mean by it?''
5164''Last night you invited me to come and see you this morning,--is that one of the follies of which your tongue was guilty?''
5164''Lessingham!--It''s only a picture!--Are you stark mad?''
5164''Lessingham!--come, man, what''s wrong with you?''
5164''Lessingham,''I said,''you''re either mad already, or you''re going mad,--which is it?''
5164''Like a thief you went into his house,--did I not tell you that you would?
5164''Love her?''
5164''Mademoiselle is not well?''
5164''Marjorie Lindon?''
5164''Marjorie Lindon?''
5164''May I ask how you found your way into my back yard?''
5164''May I ask if I may rely upon your preserving your presence of mind?''
5164''May I ask, sir, to what I am indebted for the pleasure of your company?''
5164''Miss Linden''s-- or the glove girl''s?''
5164''Miss Lindon?''
5164''Money?''
5164''Mr Atherton!--is that you?''
5164''Mr Atherton?''
5164''Mr Atherton?''
5164''Mr Champnell, do you know that I am on the verge of madness?
5164''Mr Champnell,--who do you think this person is of whom the report from Vauxhall Station speaks as being all in rags and tatters?''
5164''Mr Lessingham''s cat?''
5164''Mr Lessingham, I believe?''
5164''Much damage done?''
5164''My blood?''
5164''My dear Marjorie, why will you persist in treating me with such injustice?
5164''My dear chap, how on earth am I to know?''
5164''My dear papa!--do you intend me to spend the remainder of my life in the drawing- room?''
5164''My forgiveness?''
5164''Nice bloke, ai n''t he?''
5164''No!--Have you?--By Jove!--Where?
5164''No?--really?--what do you mean?''
5164''Not in the East?''
5164''Not moved?--Is he still insensible?''
5164''Nothing could give me greater pleasure, but-- might I point out?--Mr Holt has to find it yet?''
5164''Now what''s to be done?
5164''Now, candidly, would you recommend me to place myself in the hands of a mental pathologist?''
5164''Of course I do,--what do you suppose I''ve come for?
5164''Of course I''m sure,--you can go and see for yourself if you like; do you think I''m blind?
5164''Of what?''
5164''Officer, I will have this man taken into my father''s house.--Will some of you men help to carry him?''
5164''Oh!--It''s you, is it?--What the deuce are you doing here?''
5164''Oh, is it nothing?
5164''Oh, was it?
5164''On whom-- on you, or on Paul Lessingham?--Who, at any time, has shown mercy unto me, that I should show mercy unto any?''
5164''On your side,--or Mr Lessingham''s?''
5164''One party only?''
5164''One''s eyes are apt to play us tricks;--how could you see what was n''t there?''
5164''Or a follower of Isis?''
5164''Or does he fear your father?''
5164''Ostensibly, there''s a vacuum,--which nature abhors.--I say, driver, did n''t you see someone come up the steps?''
5164''Papa!--Do you really think that Sydney''s opinion, or your opinion, is likely to alter facts?''
5164''Pardon me, it''s true,--else how comes it that, at this time of day, I''m without a friend in all the world?''
5164''Paul Lessingham''s?''
5164''Peter, what is the matter in the street?
5164''Pray how do you happen to know?''
5164''Pray, sir, are you a magician?''
5164''Pray, sir, who are you, and on whose invitation do I find you here?''
5164''Precisely, what do you mean?
5164''Quite.--You forgive me?
5164''Revolvers?--whatever for?''
5164''Says it''s full, does''e?
5164''Seen a priest of Isis assume the form of a beetle?''
5164''Seen a sign of anything?''
5164''Shall I dismiss the cabman,--or do n''t you feel equal to walking?''
5164''Shall you go with me?''
5164''She is good,--he is bad,--is it not so?''
5164''She went away with Lessingham,--did you see her?''
5164''Sheet of paper and all?''
5164''Should it be locked?''
5164''So you have come, after all!--Wasn''t it splendid?--wasn''t it magnificent?
5164''So you''ave come,''ave you?
5164''So!--Do you always come through a window which is open?''
5164''So!--Through the window again!--like a thief!--Is it always through that door that you come into a house?''
5164''Something of what kind?''
5164''Something tripped me up,--what''s this?''
5164''Something with us in the room?--Mademoiselle?--What does mademoiselle mean?''
5164''Sorry that I love you!--why?
5164''Tell me, Percy,--honest Indian!--do you really love her?''
5164''That is what you do mean, is it?
5164''That you swear?''
5164''The Arab party?''
5164''The Inspector wants to know how you got here, has anyone been doing anything to you?
5164''The blame was mine,--what sort of side do I show you?
5164''The deuce you have!--From whom?''
5164''The inventor?''
5164''The same.--Do you know him?''
5164''Then for what did you come?''
5164''Then how comes he here?''
5164''Then how is it you''ve forgotten?''
5164''Then perhaps you can tell us what was in the bundle?''
5164''Then that''s all right.--Do I understand that you propose to come in with me?''
5164''Then was there silence?''
5164''Then what do you mean?''
5164''Then what do you suggest?''
5164''Then what happened?''
5164''Then what sort of a clerk are you?''
5164''Then what will serve?''
5164''Then where can this mysterious old gentleman have got to,--can you suggest an explanation?
5164''Then where''s the next stoppage?''
5164''Then why did n''t you do as I told you?''
5164''Then why do n''t you let me help you?''
5164''Then why through this?''
5164''Then will you do this for me?
5164''Then you think that-- juggling villain did get hold of her?''
5164''There!--Can''t you hear it droning?''
5164''This friend of Holt''s-- am I not telling you?
5164''This is Commercial Road, sir,--what part of it do you want?''
5164''This is''Ammersmith Workhouse, it''s a large place, sir,--which part of it might you be wanting?''
5164''This mention of the shrieks on the railway, and of the wailing noise in the cab,--what must this wretch have done to her?
5164''This that you''re engaged upon,--is it a projectile or a weapon?''
5164''Three in a hansom?''
5164''To commence with, may I ask if you have come through London, or through any portion of it, in that costume,--or, rather, in that want of costume?
5164''To hear Paul Lessingham?''
5164''To what do you allude?''
5164''To what marvels do you particularly refer?''
5164''To which of the clerks, Mr Champnell, do you wish to put your questions?''
5164''Upset?''
5164''Very well.--Do you happen to know if there are any revolvers in the house?''
5164''W- w- what the d- devil''s the-- the m- m- meaning of this?''
5164''W- what was that tomfoolery she was talking to you about?''
5164''W-- what do you mean by here?--wh-- where''s the carriage?''
5164''Was he a maniac?''
5164''Was he alone then?''
5164''Was he alone?''
5164''Was he alone?''
5164''Was it open when you returned from your pursuit of Holt?''
5164''Waterloo Railway Station,--you are sure that was what he said?''
5164''Well then?''
5164''Well!--this is a pretty fix!--now what''s to be done?''
5164''Well!--why not?--would you have him injure the cause he has at heart for want of a little patience?''
5164''Well, nurse, how''s the patient?''
5164''Well, sir, is your continued silence part of the business of the role you have set yourself to play?''
5164''Well, sir, what''s the matter now?
5164''Well,--was it beetle, then?''
5164''Well?''
5164''Well?''
5164''Well?''
5164''Well?--I see,--Paul Lessingham.--What then?''
5164''Well?--to what?''
5164''Were n''t supernatural powers attributed to the priests of Isis?''
5164''Were n''t the priests of Isis-- or some of them-- supposed to assume, after death, the form of a-- scarabaeus?''
5164''Were there any other noises?
5164''Were there any signs of a struggle?''
5164''What Paul Lessingham?''
5164''What ails you?
5164''What are you going there for?''
5164''What are you?''
5164''What can be the matter with me?
5164''What did he look like,--this old gent of yours?''
5164''What did he say and do?''
5164''What did they understand by transmigration?''
5164''What did you see?''
5164''What do you call your cause?--are you thinking of that nonsense you were talking about last night?''
5164''What do you know of Mr Lessingham?''
5164''What do you know of this man Lessingham?''
5164''What do you mean by that?
5164''What do you mean by that?''
5164''What do you mean by upset?
5164''What do you mean by you do n''t know?
5164''What do you mean by you''re wrecked?''
5164''What do you mean by"of a kind?"
5164''What do you mean with your old gent at the window?--what window?''
5164''What do you mean, it''s yours?''
5164''What do you mean?''
5164''What do you mean?''
5164''What do you mean?''
5164''What do you mean?''
5164''What do you mean?''
5164''What do you mean?''
5164''What do you mean?--was it furnished when you left?''
5164''What do you think has happened?''
5164''What do you want to know?''
5164''What does it matter?''
5164''What else are you?''
5164''What has happened to her?''
5164''What has he done to you that you should wish to be revenged on him?''
5164''What has the Englishman''s law to do with me?''
5164''What have you come to see me about?''
5164''What have you put it there for?''
5164''What is it I am being warned against,--the beetle?''
5164''What is it that you mean, sir?''
5164''What is it you do not know?
5164''What is it?''
5164''What is that?''
5164''What is the matter with the man?''
5164''What is the nature of the delusion?
5164''What is the nature of your objection to Mr Lessingham?''
5164''What is the question?''
5164''What is the story in your life of which you stand in such hideous terror?''
5164''What is the story?''
5164''What is this curious arrangement of glass tubes and bulbs?''
5164''What is this?''
5164''What is your name?''
5164''What matter?''
5164''What old gent?''
5164''What on earth do you mean?''
5164''What on earth do you mean?''
5164''What reason have you for suspecting that Mr Atherton has seen this individual of whom you speak,--has he told you so?''
5164''What sort of a clerk are you?''
5164''What sort of a looking person was he?''
5164''What sort of a man is he to look at, this patient of yours?''
5164''What sort of a thing?''
5164''What sort of looking bloke is it who''s been murdered?''
5164''What sort of man is he to look at?''
5164''What sort of peril?
5164''What then?
5164''What use would he be likely to make of them?''
5164''What was that?--It was nothing.--It was my imagination.--My nerves are out of order.--I have been working too hard.--I am not well.--WHAT''S THAT?''
5164''What was there peculiar about his clothes and his walk?''
5164''What was this you found upon your study table,--merely a drawing?''
5164''What were the words?''
5164''What wo n''t let you?''
5164''What words are they?''
5164''What would Marjorie think of me if she saw me now?''
5164''What would you feel like?''
5164''What!--Not when I am going to be his wife?''
5164''What''s he mean about a beetle?''
5164''What''s he mean?''
5164''What''s in the wind?''
5164''What''s that on his neck?''
5164''What''s that?''
5164''What''s that?''
5164''What''s that?''
5164''What''s that?''
5164''What''s the matter with him?''
5164''What''s the matter with this confounded blind?
5164''What''s the matter with you?''
5164''What''s the matter with you?--Aren''t you well?''
5164''What''s the matter?
5164''What''s the matter?''
5164''What''s the matter?''
5164''What''s the matter?--What have I been saying now?''
5164''What''s the meaning of this little caper?--Where do you think you''re going now?''
5164''What''s the meaning of this, Mrs Henderson?
5164''What''s this?''
5164''What''s wrong with you?''
5164''What?''
5164''Whatever for?''
5164''Where are these-- what shall I call them-- delineations?''
5164''Where are you off to?''
5164''Where are you off to?''
5164''Where have you come from?
5164''Where the devil are we?''
5164''Where''s that?''
5164''Where''s your train?
5164''Where?''
5164''Where?''
5164''Where?''
5164''Where?''
5164''Which is the next nearest workhouse?''
5164''Which is the window which served you as a door?''
5164''Which may I have?''
5164''Who are you?--Do you hear me ask, who are you?
5164''Who are you?--In God''s name, who are you?''
5164''Who calls you?''
5164''Who has he killed?''
5164''Who is the----gentleman you are alluding to?''
5164''Who is this man?''
5164''Who is this-- individual whom you speak of as my-- Oriental friend?''
5164''Who is your Oriental friend?''
5164''Who is your Oriental friend?''
5164''Who put it there?''
5164''Who the deuce are you?''
5164''Who the devil are you?''
5164''Who was that?''
5164''Who was the individual, practically stark naked, who came out of your house, in such singular fashion, at dead of night?''
5164''Who''s the him?''
5164''Who''s there?''
5164''Who''s there?''
5164''Who-- who''s your Oriental friend?''
5164''Who?--Is there more women in the world than one for me, or has there ever been?
5164''Why are you staring at me like that?
5164''Why did you come through the window?''
5164''Why did you leave the door open when you went?''
5164''Why do n''t you?''
5164''Why do you ask?''
5164''Why do you ask?''
5164''Why do you keep on snubbing me?''
5164''Why do you laugh-- do you think that being threatened with the police is a joke?
5164''Why do you lie to me?''
5164''Why is it singular?''
5164''Why not?
5164''Why on him?''
5164''Why should I be?
5164''Why should I let it go?--Do you know whose cat that is?
5164''Why should I?--what does it matter?
5164''Why should she not?''
5164''Why the old gent peeping through the window of the room upstairs?''
5164''Why were they not detained?''
5164''Why, in particular, not to Miss Lindon?''
5164''Why, just as I was going to say,"Miss Lindon, may I offer you the gift of my affection---"''''Was that how you invariably intended to begin?''
5164''Why?''
5164''Will you answer a question?''
5164''Will you be my wife?''
5164''Will you come to my laboratory to- morrow morning?''
5164''Will you let me pass, please?''
5164''Will you let me see it once more?''
5164''With your aunt?''
5164''Wo n''t''e let yer in?''
5164''Would it yours?''
5164''Would she now?''
5164''Would there be time for a wire to reach St Albans?''
5164''Yes, Sydney, what do you feel for me in your heart of hearts?''
5164''Yes,--but how?
5164''Yes,--but of the soul or of the body?''
5164''You are Mr Atherton?''
5164''You are Mr Champnell?''
5164''You are my friend,--are you not my friend?''
5164''You are quite sure this is the house?
5164''You are sure he asked for three tickets?''
5164''You are sure he had a bundle on his head?''
5164''You are sure he was indoors?''
5164''You are sure this thing of beauty was a man?''
5164''You call me thief?''
5164''You can''t.''--Why?''
5164''You come from Miss Lindon?''
5164''You could not?--How do you mean you could not?''
5164''You could wire to St Albans to inquire if they were still in the train?''
5164''You did n''t see who were his companions?''
5164''You did n''t speak to him,--or to the cabman?''
5164''You do not know French?--nor the patois of the Rue de Rabagas?
5164''You do not know?''
5164''You do not understand?--no!--it is simple!--what could be simpler?
5164''You had forgotten?''
5164''You have your own way of conducting a conversation, Mr Atherton.--What are the events to whose rapid transit you are alluding?''
5164''You kept it in your inner drawer, Paul Lessingham, where none but you could see it,--did you?
5164''You know his house,--the house of the great Paul Lessingham,--the politician,--the statesman?''
5164''You know the fellow I saw coming out of your drawing- room window?''
5164''You look English,--is it possible that you are not English?
5164''You mean Scarabaeus sacer,--according to Latreille, Scarabaeus Egyptiorum?
5164''You mean that business of last night?
5164''You never saw anything of her again?--Are you sure she went back into the house?''
5164''You promise me?''
5164''You remember that last night I told you that I might require your friendly services in diplomatic intervention?''
5164''You saw Paul Lessingham,--well?--the great Paul Lessingham!--Was he, then, so great?''
5164''You say he booked to Hull,--does the train run through to Hull?''
5164''You shall see.--You observe how happy it is?''
5164''You think she did?''
5164''You think so?
5164''You think so?''
5164''You think that she still is worshipped?
5164''You will be on my side?''
5164''You''d like to tell him so?''
5164''You''re sure it''s nothing to do with this?''
5164''You''ve been with Miss Lindon all the afternoon and evening, have n''t you, Mr Holt?''
5164''You, Mr Atherton,--are you also a magician?''
5164''You?--Alone?''
5164Ai n''t there a cupboard nor nothing where he could hide?''
5164Am I going mad?
5164And also, and at the same time, who the devil are you?''
5164Are you aware that the purport of my presence here is to ask you how that picture found its way into your room?''
5164Are you better?''
5164Are you driving at something in particular?
5164Are you not well?
5164Are you stark, staring mad?
5164Are you sure the whiskers are real?''
5164Are you under a vow of silence, or are you dumb,--except upon occasion?
5164Are your sentiments towards her purely fraternal?''
5164As Sydney would phrase it,--am I going to make an idiot of myself?''
5164As for there being any revolvers in the house, papa has a perfect arsenal,--would you like to take them all?''
5164As he himself suggested, what inducement could he have had to tell a lie like that?
5164Be advised by me, and do not compel me to resort to measures which will be the cause to you of serious discomfort.--You hear me, sir?''
5164But, as you will perceive for yourself, until I am able to give that information every moment is important.--Where''s the Station Superintendent?''
5164But, on the other hand, what could have become-- in the space of fifty seconds!--of his''old gent''?
5164But, suppose the place was empty, what would be the use of knocking?
5164But, then, what track?''
5164But-- let us begin at the right end!--what''s your name?''
5164By the way, were n''t you due to speak in the House to- night?''
5164CHAPTER XIII THE PICTURE''I wonder what that nice- looking beggar really means, and who he happens to be?''
5164CHAPTER XVII MAGIC?--OR MIRACLE?
5164Can the objection be political?
5164Can you bear to think of him in her arms?''
5164Can you tell me if anything has been seen of the person in question by the men of your division?''
5164Cheer up!--one never knows!--Who is this that''s coming?''
5164Come,--tell us all about it!--what are you afraid of?''
5164Could he give me as much instruction in the qualities of unknown forces as I could him?
5164Did you try to stop him?''
5164Directly I knelt down beside him, what do you think he said?''
5164Do n''t you want to get away from it, back into the presence of God?''
5164Do you dare to insinuate anything against-- Paul?''
5164Do you know that a fellow has jumped out of your drawing- room window?''
5164Do you know that as I am sitting here by your side I am living in a dual world?
5164Do you stand in terror of the minions of the law,--at last?''
5164Do you suppose I live in an atmosphere of fairy tales?''
5164Do you think I am a boy to be bamboozled by every bogey a blunderer may try to conjure up?
5164Do you think I could mistake them,--especially after what has happened since?
5164Do you think I''m mad?--I wonder if I''m going mad.--Sydney, do people suddenly go mad?
5164Do you think I''m quite an idiot?''
5164Do you think that I do n''t know you?
5164Do you think that this is a performance in a booth, and that I am to be taken in by all the humbug of the professional mesmerist?
5164Do you think that''s possible?''
5164Does it take the shape of a-- beetle?''
5164Does the body die, and the brain-- the I, the ego-- still live on?
5164Doubtless my face revealed my feelings, because, presently, he said,''Are you aware how strangely you are looking at me, Atherton?
5164For instance, were there any sounds of struggling, or of blows?''
5164For that alone I could have you punished, and I will!--and try to play the fool?
5164For you are my slave,--at my beck and call,--my familiar spirit, to do with as I will,--you know this,--eh?''
5164Has a message been received from me from the Limehouse Police Station?''
5164Has anyone been assaulting you?''
5164Has anyone been hurting you?''
5164Has the scoundrel attempted violence?''
5164Have I offended you so irremediably that it will be impossible for you to dance with me again?''
5164Have you any news for me?
5164Have you ever seen a clairvoyant?''
5164Have you forgotten something else which you said to me last night?''
5164Have you got those wires?''
5164Have you received any communication from Scotland Yard to- night having reference to a matter in which I am interested?''
5164He is not the man to suffer a midnight robber to escape him scatheless,--shall I have to kill him?''
5164He merely waited till Mr Lindon was well off the steps; then, turning to me, he placidly observed,''Interrupting you again, you see.--May I?''
5164He shouted, as he peered at us in the darkness,''Who done that?''
5164Her life was bidding fair to be knit with his,--what Upas tree of horror was rooted in his very bones?
5164How are you feeling?''
5164How could I come to think I saw something when I did n''t?''
5164I am not even afraid to remember,--you perceive it?''
5164I am not jesting,--I am in earnest; wo n''t you take my word for it?''
5164I ask you!--Is it not good to be dead?
5164I felt it alight upon the coverlet;--shall I ever forget the sensations with which I did feel it?
5164I had not noticed it there previously, I had not put it there,--where had it come from?
5164I instructed them to tell you to have a special ready,--have you got one?''
5164I know better.--Once more, are you going to give me that revolver and those letters?''
5164I said,"How do you know it was he?"
5164I said,"What do you know about any Arab?"
5164I said,"Who?--Baxter?--or Bob Brown?"
5164I say what I mean,--I always have said, and I always shall say.--What do you know of him outside politics,--of his family-- of his private life?''
5164I shall not fail to do what should be done.--Give me your promise that you will not hint a word to her of what you have so unfortunately seen?''
5164I stared,--as who would not?
5164I stood and listened,--what was it that hovered so persistently at my back?
5164I suppose you have no sort of doubt that the person you saw in the Broadway was the one in question?''
5164I was still,--what would my contradiction have availed me?
5164I''d been downstairs it might''ave been''arf a hour, when I''ears a shindy a- coming from this room--''''What sort of a shindy?''
5164If he was n''t indoors, where was he then?''
5164If the man, with whom I had just been speaking, was gone, where had he gone to?
5164If the thing had been a trick, I had not the faintest notion how it had been worked; and, if it was not a trick, then what was it?
5164If this glittering creature was there, in his stead, whence had it come?
5164Is it absolutely certain that there could be no shred of truth in such a belief?''
5164Is it not sweet to stand close at my side?
5164Is it possible that you can enlighten me as to their source?''
5164Is it possible, that, all the time, you have actually been concealed behind that-- screen?''
5164Is it so common for a woman to come across a man who would be willing to lay down his life for her that she should be sorry when she finds him?''
5164Is n''t that something like a weapon, sir?''
5164Is n''t there some superstition about evil befalling whoever shelters a homeless stranger?''
5164Is she mad?''
5164Is that all you have to say?''
5164Is that so, madam?''
5164Is there a better thing than to be his wife?
5164Is there for a woman a happier chance?
5164Is there still the piano?
5164It is n''t a very far cry to Hammersmith,--don''t you think you are well enough to drive there now, just you and I together in a cab?''
5164It would seem out of place in a Cairene street,--would it not?--even in the Rue de Rabagas,--was it not the Rue de Rabagas?''
5164It''s a worry,--you understand?''
5164Its forelegs touched the bare skin about the base of my neck; they stuck to it,--shall I ever forget the feeling?
5164Let me consider,--what has Lessingham done which could offend the religious or patriotic susceptibilities of the most fanatical of Orientals?
5164Like a thief he found you,--were you not ashamed?
5164Like an idiot I followed, leaving Marjorie to wait for me--''''Alone?''
5164Miss Lindon is disguised in your old clothes, is n''t she?''
5164My dear Sydney, are you not aware that it is an attribute of small minds to attempt to belittle those which are greater?
5164Now, why was that?''
5164O''course that ai n''t all I''ve got to say,--ain''t I just a- comin''to it?''
5164Of me he asked in a whisper,''Did you bring a revolver?''
5164Of what wretched folly have you been guilty?
5164Oh yes!--I tell you!--do I not know?
5164Once more I ask, how did you find your way into my back yard?''
5164Only thieves come through windows,--did you not come through the window?''
5164Or should I push my researches further?
5164Or-- could it be a beetle?
5164Perceiving us, she drew a little back''Who''s them''ere parties?
5164Perhaps he remembers me.--Do you?''
5164Shall I advise detention?''
5164She looks upon me as a brother--''''As a brother?''
5164Should I, now I had ascertained that-- the room was, at least, partially furnished, beat a retreat?
5164Since, like a thief he found you, how comes it that you have escaped,--by what robber''s artifice have you saved yourself from gaol?''
5164Sydney, do n''t torture me,--let me stop here where I am,--don''t you see I''m haunted?''
5164That was the question which I had already asked myself, in what condition would she be when we had succeeded in snatching her from her captor''s grip?
5164That while you suffered me to pour out my heart to you unchecked, you were aware, all the time, that there was a listener behind the screen?''
5164The little house with the blue- grey Venetians, and the piano with the F sharp missing?
5164Then he said aloud,''Can you see it now?''
5164They ai n''t coppers?''
5164Think I''ve nothing better to do than to wait upon the likes of you?''
5164This morning did I not say,--if you want me, then I come?''
5164Very good,--then what is it that you do know?
5164Was ever rejected lover burdened with such a task?
5164Was it something new in scientific marvels?
5164We looked upstairs, and downstairs, and everywhere-- where could he have been?''
5164Well, has the beetle done anything to you?''
5164Well,--how does it feel to be dead?
5164What are you then-- French?
5164What could be in the room, to have suffered me to open the window and to enter unopposed?
5164What did he mean by his allusion to lunatics in politics,--did he think to fool me?
5164What do you know against Lessingham, apart from his politics?''
5164What do you know of him besides this?''
5164What do you say has happened?''
5164What do you suppose I sent for you here for?''
5164What does it make you feel like, this love you talk so much about?''
5164What had she not been made to suffer to have kept up that continued''wailing noise''?
5164What has the man, Holt, to do with the errand on which we are bound?''
5164What is in the thing?
5164What is this?''
5164What man''s life has?
5164What the devil are you doing here, what''s wrong?
5164What unimaginable agony had caused them?
5164What was I to do?
5164What would you have thought-- and said-- if I had attempted to play the spy on you?
5164What''s happened?''
5164What''s the matter with the girl?''
5164What''s the matter?''
5164What''s up there?''
5164What''s your information?''
5164What''s your little game?
5164When a man speaks with an Apostle''s tongue, he can witch any woman in the land.--Hallo, who''s that?--Lessingham, is that you?''
5164Where''s it now?''
5164Where''s my servant?''
5164Where''s that brandy?''
5164Where''s that dashed hat of yours,--or are you going without it?
5164Who among men can claim to be without sin?
5164Who but a fanatic would have attempted burglary in such a costume?''
5164Who is this man, and how did he come in here, and who came in with him, and what do you know about it altogether?
5164Who knows what mystery''s beneath?''
5164Who t- takes a nameless vagabond into the house and con- conceals his presence from her father?
5164Who''s been worrying you,--your father?''
5164Who''s that?''
5164Who''s the lady?''
5164Who, with a heart in his bosom, would deny it me?
5164Why did n''t you send for me directly you found him?''
5164Why did n''t you stop him?''
5164Why do you ask?''
5164Why do you beat about the bush,--why do n''t you speak right out?''
5164Why should I not do it then?
5164Why should n''t they be real?''
5164Why should she think of a man like you, when she has so much better fish to fry?''
5164Why should you be sorry that you have become the one thing needful in any man''s eyes,--even in mine?
5164Why will you come where you''re not wanted?''
5164Will you see me to the carriage, Mr Atherton?''
5164With luck you ought to get there pretty nearly as soon as the express does.--Shall I tell them to get ready?''
5164Would Paul not come down with a run?
5164Would you be willing to resign her to him without a word?''
5164Yet what do you think she does?
5164Yet, in that strange and inhospitable place, where was I to get food at that time of night, and how?
5164You are not likely to find it so.--Have you suddenly been bereft of the use of your tongue?''
5164You are small, but he is smaller,--your great Paul Lessingham!--Was there ever a man so less than nothing?''
5164You know me do n''t you?
5164You say you do not know it?
5164You understand?''
5164You will be cold, your feet will be cut and bleeding,--but what better does a thief deserve?
5164You will find it interesting,--as an instance of a singular survival.--Didn''t the followers of Isis believe in transmigration?''
5164You, with your white skin, if I were a woman, would you not take me for a wife?''
5164and where?''
5164as the Marjorie I have known, as I saw her last,--or how?''
5164do n''t all the facts most unfortunately point in one direction?''
5164even the vagabond warns her against the r- rascal Lessingham!--Now, Atherton, tell me what you think of a girl who behaves like that?''
5164his well- beloved?
5164is it necessary that you should come and play these childish tricks with me?
5164tell me who you are?''
5164the light of his eyes?
5164what concern have you with me?
5164what do you want?
5164what on earth should make her do a thing like that?
5164what speechless torture?
5164what''s this?
5164who sent you here?
5164why?
5164why?''
14126''Good''--''loving''?
14126''Ruy Blas''in Italian? 14126 A hard fight?
14126A parcel of idiots, nurse, are n''t we?
14126A touch of the_ folie des grandeurs?_"Well, who escapes it?
14126A touch of the_ folie des grandeurs?_"Well, who escapes it?
14126A very ineffective statement Ashe made to- night-- don''t you think so?
14126About America? 14126 About that silly affair with Prince Stephan?"
14126About the ministry? 14126 About what?"
14126About your literary work?
14126Adelina, need we wait any longer?
14126Afraid of her? 14126 Ah!--what have you been discovering?"
14126Ah, then,she said--"_then_ he could n''t have suffered-- could he?
14126Alice?
14126All the novels that are written about politics nowadays-- except Dizzy''s-- are such nonsense, are n''t they? 14126 Also I gather,"said Cliffe, with a smile,"that Lady Parham has her say?"
14126Am I henceforth to live and die on Lady Parham''s ample breast?
14126Am I not to the minute?
14126Am I?
14126Am I?
14126Am I?
14126And Ashe?
14126And Fanchette is to make it?
14126And I understood that I was to be taken into respectable cousinly counsel?
14126And Lady Kitty is flirting with him at this particular moment? 14126 And Lady Kitty, I understand, is a scandal to gods and men, and the most fashionable person in town?"
14126And Lord Parham?
14126And Mr. Ashe-- do you know if he is going, after all?
14126And a most brilliant writer?
14126And cruelty?
14126And do you include me among the wolves?
14126And if it does n''t give me pleasure?
14126And in fact they are rare-- and detested? 14126 And it always amuses people-- doesn''t it?"
14126And it''s all so awkward, is n''t it?
14126And it''s in that spirit you''re going back into the House?
14126And may I tell her, too,he said, pausing--"that you forgive her?"
14126And meanwhile Lady Kitty has no dealings with her step- sister?
14126And shall I tell you what mother said?
14126And some day you will be Lord Tranmore?
14126And take his seat this evening?
14126And that-- you are not prepared to do?
14126And the devils?
14126And the goal?
14126And the party?
14126And then?
14126And this,said the Dean,"is all?
14126And who lives there?
14126And you knew he was coming home?
14126And you remember the green garibaldi-- last week? 14126 And you scorn success?"
14126And you want sympathy?
14126And you-- are you horribly tired?
14126And you?
14126And you?
14126And your mother?
14126And-- and you start to- morrow morning?
14126And-- you know what I told you about my bad temper?
14126Are n''t the true Church the people who are justified by the event?
14126Are n''t they?
14126Are n''t you as sorry for her as I am?
14126Are n''t you dining out somewhere to- night?
14126Are n''t you wandering too far, Lady Kitty?
14126Are there many parties like this in London? 14126 Are they in the library?"
14126Are we?
14126Are you a Catholic?
14126Are you coming, Markham?
14126Are you going back?
14126Are you going to marry her at last?
14126Are you going to tell me about them also?
14126Are you going with Lady Parham?
14126Are you going with the Crashaw''s party?
14126Are you quite determined I sha''n''t get_ any_ joy out of my holiday?
14126Are you soon shutting up?
14126Are you very tired, my lady?
14126Are you, perhaps, interested in the Ricci? 14126 Are you?
14126Are you?
14126As much as a_ friend_ cares to know?
14126Because, you mean, of Tranmore''s condition? 14126 Because,"he hesitated,"your own life has been so happy?"
14126Before Lord Parham said-- what annoyed you?
14126Besides, William never minds being abused a bit-- does he?
14126Between the past and the present? 14126 But I ca n''t have no more--""No more ructions?"
14126But I came to find--"Miss Lyster? 14126 But as for the tales that people who hate her tell of her, and will go on telling of her--""They are merely the harvest of what she has sown?"
14126But ca n''t you see that-- just now especially-- you ought to think of nothing--_nothing_--but William''s future and William''s career?
14126But if I do mind it?
14126But if I tell nobody who wrote it-- and you tell nobody?
14126But if you buy it up-- and stop all the papers that matter,she faltered--"why should you resign, William?
14126But is there really any truth in it? 14126 But why did you throw at all?"
14126But you wo n''t go, Blanchie, will you?
14126But you_ ca n''t_ mean that-- that you''ll resign because of that book?
14126But-- you wo n''t resign your seat?
14126But--She considered--"Would you like to see the Palazzo Vercelli?"
14126By- the- way, do you know that Geoffrey Cliffe is in Venice?
14126By- the- way-- where is Lady Kitty?--and are there many people here?
14126Ca n''t Lady Tranmore do anything?
14126Can I have an answer to this note?
14126Can he?
14126Can they hear the balls?
14126Chère madame, will you present me to your daughter?
14126Courage to break rules? 14126 Did I give you any advice?"
14126Did I? 14126 Did I?
14126Did I?
14126Did William say he forgave me?
14126Did Wilson feed him?
14126Did he? 14126 Did it never occur to you,"said Ashe, interrupting,"that it might get you-- get us both-- into trouble, and that you ought to tell me?"
14126Did n''t I throw straight?
14126Did n''t I?
14126Did n''t her ladyship try to persuade you to stay?
14126Did n''t you get the message about dinner?
14126Did she give you any explanation,said Ashe, presently, in a voice scarcely audible--"of their meeting at Verona?
14126Did she really do such dreadful things?
14126Did she see Geoffrey?--and does she mean me to understand that she did? 14126 Did she tell Lady Tranmore anything of Lady Kitty''s state of mind?"
14126Did she? 14126 Did you believe me?"
14126Did you ever tell William you were corresponding with him?
14126Did you guard her as you might?
14126Did you have a pleasant walk?
14126Did you have any breakfast, William?
14126Did you hear what I said?
14126Did you like it?
14126Did you put me into your book?
14126Did you? 14126 Did you?
14126Did you?
14126Did you?
14126Do I?
14126Do I?
14126Do n''t you agree, Polly?
14126Do n''t you think I''m old enough by now to have a man friend?
14126Do n''t you think that jealousy will soon be as dead as-- saying your prayers and going to church? 14126 Do you ever lie down-- alone-- and read a book?"
14126Do you ever see So- and- so?
14126Do you forbid me, William?
14126Do you know that mother is convinced Mary Lyster has made up her mind to marry Cliffe?
14126Do you know what that phrase-- that name of abomination-- always recalls to me?
14126Do you know? 14126 Do you like it?"
14126Do you never think that you have it in your power to help me or to ruin me?
14126Do you often go to San Lazzaro?
14126Do you remember that you promised to see me home?
14126Do you remember the mask in the''Tempest''? 14126 Do you remember the night when I told you those things, Kitty?"
14126Do you see that?
14126Do you want me to be nice to her?
14126Do you?
14126Does Ashe generally study the Scriptures of an afternoon?
14126Does Lady Kitty like society?
14126Does it? 14126 Does it?"
14126Does mother expect me to chaperon her?
14126Does she ever rest?
14126Does she love him?
14126Does she mean me to understand that she is not happy?
14126Does she see much of anybody?
14126Does she? 14126 Does she?"
14126Does that mean you chaps are going to win at the next election? 14126 Does that mean-- that you still think of him-- still wish to see him?"
14126Does the Ricci hire them?
14126Duty?
14126Eighteen-- or eighty?
14126Est- il possible? 14126 Even when he mocks at missionaries?"
14126Extraordinarily bewitching!--unlike other people?
14126Fanchette can make your dress?
14126Find yourself?
14126For Lady Kitty? 14126 For me?"
14126For their party next week?
14126Geoffrey? 14126 Good Heavens!--if this was their decay, what was their bloom?"
14126Gracious, Kitty, where do you get all these stories from?
14126H''m, sir-- So you did n''t believe a word of your own speeches?
14126Had you?
14126Half the county-- that kind of thing?
14126Has William ever interfered?
14126Has he got it in him?
14126Has he?
14126Has she seen it?
14126Has there been a row?
14126Have I lost much of you?
14126Have n''t I?
14126Have you another volume on the way?
14126Have you been fretting?
14126Have you been worried?
14126Have you heard anything more about Tuesday?
14126Have you seen William? 14126 Have you seen the babe?"
14126Have you seen your letters, my lady?
14126Have you? 14126 Have you?"
14126He proposed to you to throw me over?
14126Her ladyship says, my lady, would you please go up to her room?
14126Her mother!--what, that disreputable woman?
14126Home? 14126 How are you, madame?"
14126How are you?
14126How can I tell? 14126 How can such a child know or guess anything?
14126How did you know I wrote it?
14126How do you do, Cliffe?
14126How do you do, Kitty? 14126 How do you do, Lady Kitty?
14126How do you do?
14126How do you expect me to dress for dinner?
14126How do you know that, Lady Kitty?
14126How do you know what he used to tell her?
14126How does she get all those people together? 14126 How is he?"
14126How is she?
14126How long has it taken?
14126How long have you known-- that woman?
14126How long must I wait?
14126How many years left-- to enjoy it in-- before one dies-- or one''s heart dies?
14126How old are you?
14126How will she punish us?--and why?--for what?
14126How_ could_ you remember it all?
14126How_ dare_ we mention his name here at all?
14126However, I imagine Lady Kitty-- by- the- way, how much longer shall we give her?
14126Hullo, what''s that?
14126I ca n''t do it here, can I?
14126I did n''t admit that I was,said Kitty,"but if I am, why are you sorry?"
14126I do n''t know what you mean, Kitty-- but we must n''t stay arguing here any longer--"No!--but-- don''t you remember? 14126 I hope I talked some sense--""Oh, but why?"
14126I must find him-- but-- what shall I say to him?
14126I should have thought-- from my old recollections of her-- she would have been a match for twenty?
14126I suppose you mean Geoffrey Cliffe?
14126I suppose you mean for the successful?
14126I suppose you-- everybody-- thinks her very agreeable?
14126I suppose your English dining- rooms are all like this? 14126 I think you know,"began the Dean, clearing his throat,"why I asked you to see me?"
14126I understand she passed as his wife?
14126I want you to come and see my mother?
14126I went to the Alcots''this morning, and--"--the butler told you Madeleine was in bed? 14126 I wish I knew what could have been your possible object in writing it?"
14126I wonder if he''ll come?
14126I wonder why you want to please us?
14126I? 14126 I?"
14126If I wrote and told him it was all my doing, William?--if I grovelled to him?
14126If you make me speeches,said Kitty,"I must reply, must n''t I?
14126If you were in Ashe''s position, would you rather your wife neglected or supported your political interests?
14126In October? 14126 In any case,"said Ashe,"it''s your duty to please us?"
14126In any case,said Cliffe,"I suppose our friend here is sure of one or other of the big posts?"
14126In half an hour?
14126In the way of literary material?
14126Including Lady Kitty?
14126Is Lord Parham behaving well to you-- now-- William?
14126Is Mrs. Alcot at home?
14126Is he cross about William''s letter?
14126Is he worth it?
14126Is he? 14126 Is it all right?"
14126Is it settled?
14126Is it the Parhams? 14126 Is it to be a large party?"
14126Is it true that Lord Parham may possibly give him an appointment?
14126Is n''t it better to forget old griefs? 14126 Is n''t it fun?"
14126Is n''t it horrible?
14126Is n''t it piteous?
14126Is n''t it strange?
14126Is one allowed to find out?
14126Is she a friend of yours?
14126Is that man going to marry her-- at last? 14126 Is that one of the inventions going about?"
14126Is the gap filled?
14126Is the gondola there?
14126Is there a quiet corner anywhere?
14126Is there anything in the world that he really cares about?
14126Is there anything in which Lady Kitty or I could help you?
14126Is there no hope of Lady Kitty?
14126Is there?
14126It gives one such an unfair advantage, though, does n''t it? 14126 It seemed to me it was the end--""The end of what?"
14126It''s so true, it''s hardly worth saying-- isn''t it? 14126 It''s the other thing that''s hard-- isn''t it?"
14126Je vous demande--_who_?
14126Jolly, is n''t it?
14126Kitty!--- you regret--"That man? 14126 Kitty!--what do you mean?"
14126Kitty!--why did you do this?
14126Kitty, do you know that I had a letter from your mother, this morning?
14126Kitty, what are you about?
14126Kitty, why did you say that?
14126Kitty-- what do you mean?
14126Lady Kitty not arrived?
14126Lady Kitty, do you ever rest?
14126Lady Kitty,he said, taking a seat beside the pair,"have you forgotten you promised me some French?"
14126Lady Parham told me yesterday-- you do n''t mind my repeating it?
14126Lady Tranmore was dreadfully anxious--"Lest she should cut us at the last?
14126Lord Parham being the end and aim? 14126 Lord Parham would pass you over?"
14126Lord Parham!--coming here?
14126May I ask-- stop me if I seem impertinent-- how much you know of the history of the winter?
14126May I be allowed to see it?
14126May I have that?
14126May I look?
14126May I speak to you a moment, Kitty?
14126May I speak to you-- with a full frankness? 14126 May I?
14126May n''t one play the piano here on Sundays?
14126May we come in, Kitty?
14126May we go back into the garden a little?
14126Meanwhile, have you put him up in my dressing- room? 14126 Might I walk with you a little, or do you forbid me?"
14126Miss Lyster?
14126Must he go?
14126Must you?
14126My dear Kitty!--why talk about it?
14126My dear Miss Lyster,he said, presently, finding himself near that lady,"did you ever hear anything better done?
14126My dear, what did you look at me like that for? 14126 My dear-- do you know that William has been for eight years-- since he left Trinity-- one of the idlest young men alive?"
14126My own family at least, do n''t you think, might omit that?
14126My sister Alice? 14126 My sister?"
14126My sister?
14126Natural!--when she knows--"How can she know?
14126Nobody thinks of the book now, do they, William?
14126Not much shyness left in that young woman-- eh?
14126Not strong? 14126 Now tell me, Lady Kitty"--he roused himself to look at her with some attention--"what do you want me to do?"
14126O my God, what matter that I should grow wise-- if Kitty is lost and desolate?
14126Object?
14126Of course you did n''t mean that, William?
14126Of what importance is it to anybody that Geoffrey Cliffe should telegraph his doings and his opinions every morning to the English public?
14126Oh!--the Grosvilles complain?
14126Oh, Harry; is he there?
14126Oh, you mean that nonsensical thing last night?
14126On Sunday--_here_?
14126Or government by country- houses-- which? 14126 Oui?"
14126Perhaps I ought to talk to him?
14126Playing the great lady? 14126 Pray, is he not a great traveller?--_a very_ great traveller?"
14126Really?
14126Scarcely his repose?
14126Scotland?
14126Shall I open it?
14126Shall I take him up- stairs?
14126Shall I?... 14126 Shall we draw out and come to you?--or will you just join on where you are?"
14126Shall we order lunch?
14126Shall we try our dance?
14126Shall you-- shall you go and see Lord Parham?
14126She is not ambitious?
14126She is trying to run too many horses abreast?
14126She''s left school? 14126 She_ is_ better?"
14126Should I? 14126 Should n''t I?
14126So you admit you did it?
14126So you got my note?
14126So you worship nonsense, Lady Kitty?
14126So you would prevent me from taking the only honorable, the only decent way out of this thing that remains to me?
14126So you''re in? 14126 Some nonsense, was n''t it?
14126Some-- some--she cudgelled her memory--"some Théophile Gautier?"
14126Spirit? 14126 Tell me, are you with Lady Tranmore?"
14126That hardly seems time enough-- does it?
14126That magnificent place on the Grand Canal? 14126 That was hardly what caused the tears, was it?"
14126That was marvellous, that light on the Salute, was n''t it?
14126That''s my extravagance, is n''t it? 14126 That''s not generally expected of Under- Secretaries, is it?"
14126That''s what I want to know-- worth the fuss that some people make?
14126That''s what you meant, is n''t it? 14126 The Parhams?"
14126The Ricci? 14126 The Vicomtesse D---, the lady of the poems?
14126The brother who has had an operation? 14126 The doctor declares there is no danger, unless--""Unless what?"
14126The government?
14126The old passions, you mean?
14126The way Lord Parham recommends?
14126The weather?
14126Then suppose you take the boy-- and Margaret French-- to Haggart till I can join you?
14126Then? 14126 These domesticities should be kept out of sight, do n''t you think?"
14126They are greater brutes than she thought?
14126They seem to have reached Marinitza in November If I understood aright, Lady Kitty had no maid with her?
14126To what do you allude, Lady Kitty?
14126To whom?
14126To you? 14126 Very plain, is n''t it?
14126Vous parlez Français?--vous êtes Française? 14126 War?
14126Was it her wish that you should come to me?
14126Was it?
14126Was our''great- great''the same person?
14126Was there anything to forgive? 14126 We must allow everybody their own ways of doing things, must n''t we?
14126We wo n''t talk any more about it now, Kitty, will we?
14126We''ll manage him between us, wo n''t we?
14126We''re such a happy lot, are n''t we? 14126 We''re very old friends, are n''t we?"
14126Well!--and what else?
14126Well!--how have the speeches gone? 14126 Well, Kitty, how''s the bruised one?"
14126Well, anyhow, we''re going to sample the garden to- morrow morning, are n''t we?
14126Well, mother, are you pleased?
14126Well, now, I suppose to- morrow will see your ship in port?
14126Well, what can I do for you, Lady Kitty?
14126Well, who does?
14126Well, you know the story of Madame d''Estrées''step- daughter-- old Blackwater''s daughter?
14126Well-- anybody else?
14126Well-- you do n''t object?
14126Well?
14126Well?
14126Well?
14126Were you very unhappy when you were a child, Kitty?
14126Were you?
14126What Endymion are you calling?
14126What are we doing it for?
14126What are you waiting for?
14126What are your deserts? 14126 What can I do?"
14126What did he reply?
14126What did that mean?
14126What did you think of her?
14126What do you mean, darling?
14126What do you mean?
14126What do you mean?
14126What do you mean?
14126What do you mean?
14126What do you mean?
14126What do you mean?
14126What do you mean?
14126What do you think about it, eh, Blanche?
14126What do you want for William?
14126What does it matter to you?
14126What does it matter,cried Ashe, angrily,"whether he were a blue- faced baboon!--for two nights?
14126What does it matter? 14126 What does it matter?
14126What does that matter? 14126 What does that matter?"
14126What does that mean?
14126What else should I think?
14126What has happened to them?
14126What have I done?
14126What have the Bishops been doing, my lord?
14126What have you to do with Ashe, Kitty, any longer? 14126 What in the name of fortune are you doing, Kitty?"
14126What is it in me,he thought,"that has made the difference between my life and that of other men I know-- that weakened me so with Kitty?"
14126What is really wrong with Lord Parham, William?
14126What is she?
14126What is the matter with you?
14126What is the matter?
14126What is the subject?
14126What kind of things did you say?
14126What note?
14126What obligation?
14126What on earth have we got into this beastly conversation for? 14126 What possible excuse can you invent?"
14126What right had I to expect anything?
14126What time?
14126What will she do?
14126What would have been the good?
14126What''s he been doing now, Kitty?
14126What''s his name?
14126What''s the good of being mealy mouthed about it? 14126 What''s the good of trying?"
14126What''s the matter with her?
14126What''s the matter with you, miladi?
14126What''s the matter?
14126What, indeed?
14126What, not a match for one Lady Parham?
14126What-- that they''re thinking of giving me Hickson''s place? 14126 What-- there were no pretty girls-- not one?"
14126What?
14126What_ is_ the matter with me?
14126What_ is_ the matter? 14126 When I wrote to you, I was at death''s door-- wasn''t I?"
14126When did you arrive?
14126When did you have the first idea of this book, Kitty?
14126When did you invent that? 14126 When did you know?"
14126When do you lunch there?
14126When do you see Lord Parham?
14126When will you be ready?
14126Where are the limits there?
14126Where are we?
14126Where are you? 14126 Where can I find a doctor?"
14126Where can we talk?
14126Where else would you expect to find Madame d''Estrées?
14126Where have you been-- all the time-- before America?
14126Where have you been? 14126 Where have you been?"
14126Where have you been?
14126Where is Kitty?
14126Where is William?
14126Where is the_ Times_?
14126Where shall we go?
14126Where were you going to?
14126Where were you?
14126Where-- if I may ask-- is the poet?
14126Whether I''m worth knowing?
14126Which means that you wo n''t tell me anything more?
14126Who are my victims?
14126Who are you?
14126Who is it?
14126Who is that?
14126Who made your English Sunday?
14126Who was Madame d''Estrées?
14126Who was it you saw last night in that ridiculous singing affair?
14126Who''s going to separate between maman and me? 14126 Who?"
14126Whose tales have you been listening to, Lady Kitty?
14126Why are n''t you at the Foreign Office?
14126Why are there no ladies?
14126Why are we so early?
14126Why are you so ill?
14126Why did you attack William so fiercely?
14126Why did you come in to visit me, Kitty?
14126Why did you say those foolish things to me yesterday?
14126Why do n''t you come, too?
14126Why do n''t you read the French papers, papa? 14126 Why do you see so little now of Elizabeth Tranmore?"
14126Why is he here? 14126 Why not now?
14126Why not? 14126 Why should I?"
14126Why should anybody be good?
14126Why should n''t I?
14126Why should n''t she be happy?
14126Why should we talk of forgiveness? 14126 Why should you be in despair?"
14126Why should you deign to ask?
14126Why should you do anything dreadful, please? 14126 Why should you torment yourself so?"
14126Why''poor child''?
14126Why, I thought that Lady Kitty--"Had vowed vengeance? 14126 Why, indeed?
14126Why? 14126 Why?"
14126Why?
14126Why?
14126Why?
14126Why_ did_ you bring him, Kitty? 14126 Will it?"
14126Will you call on maman to- morrow?
14126Will you come a walk with me to- morrow morning?
14126Will you show this signor the way out?
14126William Ashe? 14126 William, is the list out?"
14126With Ashe''s sanction?
14126Without our hostess?
14126Wo n''t she always be in his way?
14126Working as hard as usual, Lady Parham?
14126Would you damn me?
14126Would you like to know-- who is the best-- the noblest-- the handsomest-- the most generous-- the most delightful man I have ever met?
14126Yes, but--"But what?
14126Yes, my lady?
14126Yes-- isn''t it bad luck?
14126Yes?
14126You are very rich, are n''t you?
14126You brazen it out,said Ashe;"but how are you going to appease Lady Grosville?"
14126You ca n''t wait for your newspaper?
14126You discussed it with the Bishop?
14126You do n''t believe it? 14126 You do n''t mean-- that-- you hear from him?"
14126You do n''t mind him?
14126You find it in the tragedy of your sex?
14126You foolish child,he answered, slowly,"do you think I could forget you for an hour, wherever you were?"
14126You know how I abused you about my hair, Blanche? 14126 You know the French word_ panache_?
14126You like it?
14126You mean he has grown ambitious?
14126You mean people are tired of her?
14126You mean the man who distinguished himself in the Crimea? 14126 You mean the traveller?"
14126You mean your public duty stands in the way?
14126You mean,said Kitty, calmly,"that I am not to talk so much to Geoffrey Cliffe?"
14126You mean-- to leave me alone?
14126You mean?
14126You remember about my mother-- about Alice?
14126You remember that fellow at Univ.?
14126You remember the tales of old Lord Blackwater?
14126You remember? 14126 You shall have the whole of it before you go-- Friday, is n''t it?"
14126You think I am not worthy to know?
14126You think I have made a failure of it?
14126You think so?
14126You think society is the better for shocks?
14126You think they''ll last till Whitsuntide?
14126You were at the serenata?
14126You wo n''t come down and see me take my seat?
14126You''d like to see the Palazzo?
14126You''ll be home early?
14126You''ll buy it all up? 14126 You''re going, of course?
14126You-- you really and actually-- want to marry me?
14126Your cousin? 14126 Your cousin?"
14126Your_ taste_, Kitty!--where was your taste? 14126 ***** Ah!--could he have done such a thing himself? 14126 *****How do you do, my dear Dean?"
14126*****"What are you three gossiping about?"
14126*****"Will the signora have her dinner outside or in the_ salle- à- manger?
14126--Ashe hesitated--"that her own position is too doubtful?"
14126--he turned his head--"are we not forgotten, or just remembered-- which?"
14126A better prayer, do n''t you think?"
14126A faithless wife, blotted from her place?--made infamous forever by the veil which hid from human eye the beauty she had dishonored?
14126A great future?
14126A letter?
14126After it?
14126Ah, Mary!--how do you do?"
14126An accident?
14126An injury?
14126And all this time had he been the mere spectator and reporter, or fighting, himself?
14126And as to interest, when was it ever to serve him if not now-- through his old friendship with Ashe?
14126And had she not only checked or ruined his career-- was he to be also dishonored, struck to the heart?
14126And how could_ he_ doubt the love shown in this clinging penitence, these soft kisses?
14126And meanwhile what new and dolorous truths had Lady Kitty been learning as to her mother''s history and her mother''s position?
14126And now--?
14126And she is to act something, is n''t she, with that young De La Rivière from the embassy?
14126And the book''s worth some money, is n''t it?"
14126And then?
14126And what in Heaven''s name was the reason why old friends like Lady M---- were beginning to look at him coldly, and avoid his conversation?
14126And what on_ earth_ is the matter?"
14126And who comes worst off?
14126And why not?
14126And yet-- yet?
14126And-- in the distance-- the slender figure of a woman walking-- stopping often to gather a flower-- or to rest?
14126Any commissions?
14126Anything else?"
14126Anything else?"
14126Are n''t you going home-- because of politics?"
14126Are the ladies asked, and do n''t come?
14126Are you difficult to know?"
14126Are you happy in your marriage?"
14126Are you staying in Venice?"
14126As for loftier things,"self- reverence, self- knowledge, self- control"--duty-- and the passion of high ideals-- who was he to prate about them?
14126At Haggart?"
14126At his inn, some few hundred yards away, between her and the Piazzetta, was Geoffrey Cliffe waking too?--making his last preparations?
14126At last she said:"So you think, William, I had better leave Kitty alone?"
14126At last!--was she going to bed?
14126At the bottom of her soul was she, indeed, afraid of the man beside her?
14126Be kind to her-- won''t you?"
14126Between six and seven weeks ago, was it?
14126Both were tired, and their talk drifted into the characteristic male gossip--"What''s---- doing now?"
14126But I thought there was good news?"
14126But Kitty''s mother?
14126But at Haggart-- in seclusion?"
14126But does one find Ashe himself in the middle of the day?"
14126But his mother?--his friends?--his colleagues?
14126But look here, Kitty, do n''t you think you''ll come home?
14126But now-- how can any individual, he asked himself, with political work to do, affect to despise the opinions and prejudices of society?
14126But short of resignation how was it to be done?
14126But this something-- does it really exist-- or am I only cheating myself by fancying it?
14126But this you probably know?"
14126But we have let enough be known--""Enough?--enough to damn Madame d''Estrées?"
14126But what does it matter?
14126But what encouragement had been given him to play so Quixotic a part?
14126But what good will that be to me if you are to use my absence for that purpose to bring us both to ruin?
14126But what is the use?
14126But what''s the use?
14126But where?
14126But will your cousin be there?"
14126But you do n''t believe I shall carry my point?"
14126But you have other children?"
14126But you mean that_ Lord_ Parham is to be allowed to make his peace?"
14126But you''ll help me through, wo n''t you?"
14126But"--she shivered--"but yet-- if he were sitting there--""You would be once more under the spell?"
14126But, after all, to what may not general ability aspire-- general ability properly stiffened with interest?
14126But, after all, what did such garbage matter?
14126By- the- way, I suppose you have already seen her-- at that woman''s?"
14126By- the- way, did you hear your son''s speech the other night?
14126By- the- way, have you found out where they are?"
14126By- the- way-- the glass here seems to be at''Set Fair''?"
14126Ca n''t you go to sleep, you little whirlwind?--What''s to be done?
14126Can we go to the Lido?"
14126Can you deny that?"
14126Can you help me?"
14126Can you not persuade-- Kitty"--he looked up urgently--"to accept her offer?"
14126Can you stay for dinner?"
14126Cliffe?"
14126Cliffe?"
14126Come for a stroll before dinner?"
14126Conveyed by mademoiselle?
14126Could I lift a finger to harm a mother that has lost her child?
14126Could anything be more pathetic-- more touching?"
14126Could he without cruelty impose upon her such a daughter as Kitty Bristol?
14126Could she carry him off-- trouble Mary''s possession there and then?
14126Could she love no one, cling faithfully to no one?
14126Could she, must she face it?
14126Could you ever teach me how to behave?"
14126Did Kitty''s lips move?
14126Did he know, she asked him, that three more guests were coming that afternoon-- Mr. Darrell, Mr. Louis Harman,_ and_--Mr. Geoffrey Cliffe?
14126Did it all point merely to some mental state-- to the nervous effects of her illness and her loss?
14126Did not all intelligent people read and admire?
14126Did nothing-- did no one warn you-- if you were determined to keep such a secret from your husband, whom it most concerned?"
14126Did she also avoid him, shrink from speaking out her real mind to him?
14126Did you come out-- may I ask-- determined to talk nonsense?"
14126Did you mean to put me to a last test?--or did your hard little heart misgive you at the last moment?
14126Did you take your task seriously enough?--did you give Lady Kitty all the help you might?"
14126Do I?"
14126Do n''t you think her very pretty?"
14126Do you help him?"
14126Do you know him?"
14126Do you know that Pitt once wrote a speech in the library?"
14126Do you know why I was such a wild- cat at school?
14126Do you know, Kitty, how clever you are?"
14126Do you know, William, she was awake all last night thinking of her brother?"
14126Do you mind telling me-- have there been special difficulties just lately?"
14126Do you remember my hurrying you and Margaret into the garden?
14126Do you think-- he suffered?"
14126Does n''t all the world?"
14126Federigo must have shut the great gates by this time-- as she had bade him?
14126For if the creature to be saved had not possessed such a pair of eyes-- so slim a neck-- such a haunting and teasing personality-- what then?
14126For who that had known her could think of such a being, alone, in a world of strangers, without a peculiar dread and anguish?
14126Get a doctor''s certificate and go away?"
14126Had he been still writing during the summer for the newspaper which had sent him out?
14126Had he dealt with it as he ought-- made Kitty feel the gravity of it?
14126Had he had time to feel despair-- the thirst for life?
14126Had he really been in love with that French woman?
14126Had he really liked her, in those boy- and- girl days?
14126Had he seen and recognized her-- slipping away afterwards into the mouth of a side canal, or dropping behind in the darkness?
14126Had he, perhaps,_ doubted the soul?_ He groaned aloud.
14126Had he, then, no right to speak?
14126Had n''t you better put down the dog and come and be introduced to Mr. Rankine, who is to take you in to dinner?"
14126Had she any idea of the sort of fold towards which Warington-- at once Covenanter and man of the world-- was carrying his lost sheep?
14126Had she designs-- material designs-- on behalf of Miss Amy or Miss Caroline?
14126Had she indeed been making a foolish fuss about nothing?
14126Had she, indeed, been confiding all her home secrets to this stranger?
14126Had the French cousin with whom she rode stag- hunting ever seen her like this?
14126Had the passion any reference to her?--or was it merely part of the man''s nature, as inseparable from it as flame from the volcano?
14126Had there been a quarrel?
14126Had there not been rumors of his being wounded-- or attacked by fever?
14126Had they not both trifled with the mysterious test of life-- he no less than she?
14126Has she?"
14126Have you seen him?
14126Have you--""Did maman ask her to come to- night?"
14126He died last year-- at Naples, was n''t it?"
14126He tried to comfort her; but what comfort could there be?
14126His political future?
14126How can they?
14126How could she have cared so much?
14126How do you do?"
14126How do you know?
14126How much money did he offer you, Kitty?"
14126How old was he?"
14126How shall I get a copy?"
14126How was he to deal with it-- he, William Ashe, with his ironic temper and his easy standards?
14126How was it possible to take an important share in steering the ship of state, and to look after a giddy wife at the same time?
14126How would she ever maintain her faith against William-- William, who knew so much more than she?
14126How would the Turk theory of marriage, please, have done any better?
14126How''s it to be done?"
14126However--""However, what?"
14126I have hardly slept at all-- since we talked-- you remember?
14126I suppose it was the way I behaved to Lord Parham?"
14126I suppose she thought that for her boy''s sake she''d better keep a bad business to herself as much as possible--""Wensleydale-- Wensleydale?"
14126I suppose you promised them everything they wanted-- from the crown downward?"
14126I suppose-- the nearest you could get to buskins?
14126I wonder whether it''s hardship I''ve been thirsting for all my life-- even when I seemed such a selfish, luxurious little ape?
14126I''ll just tell you everything in a lump, and then that''ll do-- won''t it?
14126I''ve put myself in, and--""And Ashe?"
14126IX"Was n''t I expected?"
14126If I had only known we were to have had the pleasure of meeting you-- Do you know, I think she is looking decidedly better?"
14126If William had cast her off, was there still one man-- wild and bad, indeed, like herself, but poet and hero nevertheless-- who loved her?
14126If he had already turned homeward?
14126If not, then I shall be--""Kitty''s husband?"
14126If so, was it just?
14126If they were going sight- seeing, might he not come with them?"
14126If we did n''t like clothes, if we did n''t like being admired-- where would you be?"
14126If what she madly dreamed were true, had she herself been seen-- and recognized?
14126If you and I are taken by surprise, what will the public be?
14126If you support us in this-- as I gather you will-- this walk will have been worth a debate-- now wo n''t it?"
14126If you would just put me in communication?"
14126In the first place, would she not let his mother be of use to her?
14126Ineffable beauty, offering itself-- and in the human soul, the eternal human discord: what else makes the poignancy of art-- the passion of poetry?
14126Is it as good as you expected?"
14126Is it getting late?"
14126Is it libellous?"
14126Is it possible even that you have seen her before?"
14126Is it true?"
14126Is it, as all the sages have said, the pursuit of some eternal good, the identification of the self with it-- the''dying to live''?
14126Is n''t it delightful?"
14126Is n''t she a darling?
14126Is n''t she pretty?"
14126Is she a bore?
14126Is that a bargain, Blanchie?"
14126Is there any woman in England who would not do her best to be civil to him under the circumstances?"
14126Is there anything left of you?
14126It is all so singular,--isn''t it?"
14126It simplifies things so-- doesn''t it?"
14126It was merely the effect of a hot summer, surely, and of a constant nervous fatigue?
14126It was that fellow Cliffe with whom the scandal was last year, was n''t it?"
14126It was what I deserved, of course; only just at that moment-- If there is a God, William, how could He have let it happen so?"
14126It''s a humbugging world-- isn''t it?"
14126It''s wild, and it''s also-- I beg your pardon--""In bad taste?"
14126Kitty, have you no heart-- and no conscience?
14126Lady Parham came closer, apparently, and said, confidentially:"What on earth made that man marry her?
14126Lady Tranmore''s eyebrows went up, and she could not restrain the word:"Alone?"
14126Lady Tranmore, are you or are you not a Christian?"
14126Loraine?"
14126Margaret French, perhaps?
14126May I call?"
14126Might n''t a man dare-- on that guarantee?"
14126More fools they, do n''t you think?"
14126My dear mother, what''s the good of paying any attention to what people like Lady Grosville say of people like Kitty?
14126Nobody could blame you, could they?
14126Nobody knows--""Not even William?"
14126Now, shall we go down?"
14126Oh, Kitty, have I ever failed you?--have I ever been hard with you?--that you should betray our love like this?
14126Oh, by- the- way, what''s Mary going to be?
14126On the other hand, what favor did he want of anybody?
14126Or a beloved mistress, on whom the mourning lover could no longer bear to look-- the veil an emblem of undying and irremediable grief?
14126Or is it mere gossip?"
14126Or"--she made a quick step in pursuit of her aunt--"shall I come and sing, Aunt Lina?"
14126Otherwise, who would condescend to politics?
14126Ought Mr. Ashe to have left her, and left her apparently in anger?
14126Ought she to have opposed it more strongly?
14126Partly, no doubt, a childish love of excitement-- partly revenge?
14126Perhaps she''ll tell William-- or write home to mother?"
14126Political?"
14126Poor child!--it all came back to that-- poor child!--what was to be done with her?
14126Presently, however, she looked up, to ask, in a voice that tried for steadiness:"What do you mean to do-- exactly-- William?"
14126Query, will Cliffe take the leap to- night?
14126Shall I find you?"
14126Shall we call this afternoon?"
14126Shall we go down to lunch?"
14126Shall we go on?
14126She has the art to perfection-- hasn''t she?
14126She has told one or two other relations and friends, and--""And the relations and friends have told others?"
14126She laid an emphasis on the last name, which made Ashe say, carelessly:"You want to meet him so much?"
14126She made no answer, but she was conscious of a sudden movement-- was it of terror?
14126She was going back to town-- to the Holland House party--""Where she probably met mother?"
14126Should she hear, perhaps, in a week or two that he had been seized with some mysterious illness, like the witch- victims of old?
14126Should she tell William she had seen him?
14126Should she?
14126Since when do they take young girls to see that kind of thing in Paris?"
14126So to allow her to share your life again-- however humbly and intermittently-- is impossible?"
14126So you saw Mademoiselle Ricci?"
14126So you-- believe evil things-- of Madame d''Estrées?"
14126So, in this French world the child had found time for other things than hunting, and the flattery of her cousin Henri?
14126Some Alfred de Musset?"
14126Somehow Ashe winced before the wreck of the handkerchief; what need to ruin the pretty, fragile thing?
14126Stones which the builders of life reject-- do they still avenge themselves in the old way?
14126Surely it depends on something infinitely more primitive and fundamental than Christianity?--something out of which Christianity itself springs?
14126Surely it was incredible that she could in any way blame Mary for the incident at Verona?
14126Surely-- though as to this he had his qualms-- she could not have spoken with this abandonment to any other of her new English acquaintances?
14126Tell me!--did you ever hunt in France?"
14126That first night, at Madame d''Estrées'', was not her madness written in her eyes?
14126That man behaved to you like a villain?"
14126That would be a kind of separation, would n''t it?"
14126The worry was over; why think of it again?
14126Then for a few minutes her mind surrendered itself wholly to the question,"Will he be here?"
14126Then the optimist in him asked impatiently what was"the good of exaggerating the damned business"?
14126Then they both fell into reverie, from which Darrell emerged with the remark:"I gather that last year some very important person interfered?"
14126Then, after a pause--"Do you still wonder why I should have chosen her society?"
14126Then, as the butler departed--"How''s father, mother?"
14126Then, with another tone of voice--"How long, William, do you give the government?"
14126Then-- as to politics?
14126There was silence a moment, then Lord Grosville inquired:"What do you think of her?"
14126This is, in fact, your answer to me?"
14126Though my boy-- you remember my boy?
14126Though, of course, you must know--""That I flirted with him abominably all the afternoon?
14126Three years, was it, since the marriage?
14126Till, with a sudden movement, she turned to him and said, smiling, quite in her ordinary voice:"Do you know why I shall never be happy?
14126To whom?
14126Was I hard when we parted-- a month ago?
14126Was Lady Kitty amenable?"
14126Was Lady Tranmore there?"
14126Was he a villain to have taken advantage of it?
14126Was he ashamed to face her-- or angered by the reminder of her existence?
14126Was he in love with her?
14126Was he prepared now to make the statement with the same simplicity, the same whole- heartedness?
14126Was it Ashe''s fancy, or had she grown pale?
14126Was it a hard fight?"
14126Was it because she had no intellectual disinterestedness?
14126Was it because some one else had come between you?
14126Was it fancy, or was the gathering itself aware of the change which had passed over it?
14126Was it really recovery?
14126Was it rouge?--or was it the strong air?
14126Was it so that she went through her pious exercises?--by- the- way, she was, of course, a Catholic?--said her lessons, and went to her confessor?
14126Was it the mere advancement of his fortunes-- or something infinitely subtler and sweeter?
14126Was it the perception of this pity beside her that drove Kitty to solitude and flight?
14126Was it true, as she knew was said, that William had no high sense of honor, that he failed in delicacy and dignity?
14126Was it true, indeed, that his natural indolence could not rouse itself even to the defence of a young wife''s reputation?
14126Was n''t it an extraordinary, an indelicate thing to do?"
14126Was n''t it hellish of me?
14126Was n''t it like William?"
14126Was n''t that justification enough?
14126Was that astonishing young lady in truth identical with the pensive figure of the morning?
14126Was there a signal?
14126Was there any good to be got out of apologizing?
14126Was there, indeed, some unsound spot in Kitty?
14126Was your sister unkind to you?"
14126Well"--addressing herself to Cliffe--"are you come home to stay?"
14126Well, at any rate, let''s_ be_ cousins-- whether we are or no, shall we?"
14126Well, it was her own affair; but while there was a Greek play, or a Shakespeare sonnet, or even a Blue Book to read, who could expect him to listen?
14126Well, then, what would be his future?
14126Well, what can you expect of such a temperament-- such a race?
14126Well, what was he to do?
14126What are the men about, not to marry her?"
14126What consideration had Ashe shown for_ him_?
14126What could be done for this poor child in her strange and sinister position?
14126What course of action remained to me?
14126What did William do for her?
14126What did the child mean?
14126What did the girl''s expression mean?--what was she thinking of?
14126What did you think of your father?"
14126What do you do with yourself?"
14126What do you mean, Kitty?"
14126What do you mean, Polly?
14126What does that mean?"
14126What else could have induced him to burden himself with a woman on such an errand and at such a time?
14126What else, what better_ could_ she have asked of him?
14126What good can she be to him now?
14126What had Kitty, indeed, been doing with herself this six weeks?
14126What had he to do with her any more?
14126What had moved him to such an act?
14126What had old Lady Grosville been about?
14126What had she been plotting?
14126What had she been talking of all these hours to mademoiselle?
14126What harm?
14126What has Kitty got hold of now?"
14126What has he done with himself all these eight years?
14126What have I done?
14126What have you been doing with yourself?"
14126What have you been doing?--dancing-- riding, eh?"
14126What if he tempted Kitty to this escapade-- and the rough life killed her?
14126What if she tried religion?--recalled what she had been taught in the convent?--gave herself up to a director?
14126What other characteristics have they?"
14126What part, however, could he-- Darrell-- play in such a transaction?
14126What shall I say?
14126What sort of man ought she to marry-- what sort of man could safely take the risks of marrying her-- with that mother in the background?
14126What tragedy was passing between them?
14126What was he going to say?
14126What was he to say?
14126What was she to do with her half- sister, stranded and dishonored as she was?--How content or comfort her?--How live her own life beside her?
14126What was the net result of those years?
14126What was the real truth of Madame d''Estrées''situation?
14126What was there vile in that?
14126What was to be done with a temperament and a disposition like this?
14126What was wrong with her and with himself?
14126What was wrong with it?
14126What''ll you do?
14126What''s he got to do with other people''s quarrels?"
14126What''s wrong with her?"
14126What''s wrong with me?"
14126What-- what did you do-- last night?"
14126What_ reality_ has all that?
14126What_ really_ were her motives?
14126When did she ever see Kitty except with a jaundiced eye?
14126When did you come?"
14126When did you show it him?"
14126When it came could William save her?
14126Where are the castanets, I wonder?"
14126Where are you staying?
14126Where shall we go?"
14126Where shall we sit it out?"
14126Where was Geoffrey?
14126Where was Kitty?
14126Where was he?
14126Where was she, and with whom?
14126Where''s William?"
14126Whither were he and Kitty going?
14126Who knows?
14126Who was the lady?
14126Who_ had_ sent that message?
14126Why are we made so?
14126Why could he not deal with that fellow Cliffe as he deserved?
14126Why could n''t he have taken it with a laugh, and so turned the tables on Kitty?
14126Why did n''t his mother interfere?
14126Why did you hide from me?"
14126Why did you never come and talk to me this afternoon?
14126Why did you send her, William?
14126Why do you want to know, madame?"
14126Why had Cliffe been invited by these very respectable and straitlaced people the Grosvilles?
14126Why had she given it?
14126Why had she treated Lord Parham so?
14126Why have we people dining?
14126Why have you never spoken in the House, or written anything?"
14126Why not leave her to her French friends and relations?--or relinquish her to Lady Grosville?
14126Why not try the opposite?"
14126Why on earth should he?
14126Why should England be agreeable to you?"
14126Why should I spoil or hamper it?
14126Why should he take any particular thought for Ashe''s domestic peace, or Ashe''s public place?
14126Why should he wince so at the girl''s name?--in that hard mouth?
14126Why should n''t I?"
14126Why should n''t Kitty spend it?
14126Why should n''t Lady Kitty spend the summer with her in Scotland?
14126Why should n''t she?
14126Why should n''t the government make use of him?
14126Why should not Lady Kitty be left at Haggart when the next session began?
14126Why should one go to bed?
14126Why such a panic!--such a hurry to leave her!--when she was ill-- and sorry?
14126Why were n''t you at the embassy last night?"
14126Why, I was a mere school- boy then, and I had a passion for their society, and their books-- for their_ plays_--dare I confess it?"
14126Why, at any rate, was_ he_ in this chafing irritation and discomfort?
14126Why-- why should we speak at all?
14126Why?
14126Why?
14126Will madame have a_ thé complet_ as before?"
14126Will you bring disgrace on that little grave?
14126Will you dig between us the gulf which is irreparable, across which your hand and mine can never touch each other any more?
14126Will you kindly take a seat?"
14126William, do you know what that child has been doing?"
14126Would Lady Kitty meet him in the old garden at eleven- thirty, or would she not?
14126Would Lord Parham venture it?
14126Would he come home?
14126Would the cabinet be reconstructed without a dissolution, or must there be an appeal to the country?
14126XIV"What does Lady Kitty do with herself here?"
14126XVIII The following morning, early, a note was brought to Kitty from Madame d''Estrées:"Darling Kitty,--Will you join us to- night in an expedition?
14126Yet how could he himself go to young Helston?
14126Yet how induce her to go with any one else?
14126You can sympathize with these things?"
14126You confided in him?"
14126You do n''t imagine I should try and write like Thackeray, do you?
14126You have only_ one_ poet, have n''t you-- one living poet?
14126You have the letter?"
14126You have tried life together and what have you made of it?
14126You know her old friendship for us, William?
14126You know very well it would be much better for you if--""If what?"
14126You know, of course, she is close to you to- day-- just the other side the park-- with the Sowerbys?"
14126You promise?
14126You remember that poor cousin of mine who died at Tokio?
14126You see, you tell the public so much--""That you think you have the right to guess the rest?"
14126You think she looked ill?"
14126You went there, did n''t you?"
14126You wo n''t go to their dinner?
14126You would have preferred ankles_ au naturel_?
14126You would n''t like a great gawk to dress, would you?"
14126You''ll soon care--""More for politics than for you?
14126You''ll stop it, William?"
14126You''re not fit for this mincing, tripping London life-- nor am I?
14126You, I hear, are to be Diana?"
14126Your gardens, Ashe-- is there time?"
14126_ He''d_ never pay out his enemies, but he could n''t help enjoying it if some one else did-- could he?"
14126_ May_ he sit on my knee?
14126_ Panache_?
14126_ We_--you and I-- are a little bit cousins too-- aren''t we?
14126answer me-- I wo n''t tell tales-- now do you--_really and truly_--believe in God?"
14126are we governed by the proper people, or are we not?"
14126by his first marriage?
14126cried Ashe,"why ca n''t you behave like a reasonable woman?"
14126cried Ashe--"what are you about?"
14126dear Lady Grosville, why should n''t they?"
14126does he?"
14126he said to himself--"must you put a woman through her theological paces at this time of night?
14126he said, bending forward with a sudden alertness--"who is that lady?"
14126he said, in a low voice--"and with whom?"
14126he said, standing still-- then in the kind voice which endeared him to the servants--"I am afraid your brother is worse?"
14126how d''you do?"
14126it''s come?"
14126must we all talk like this at last?"...
14126my dear Lady Kitty, let Renan alone,"cried the Dean-- then with a change of tone--"but are you speaking truth-- or naughtiness?"
14126or was he merely the scribe carelessly binding on other men''s shoulders things grievous to be borne?
14126said Cliffe, raising his eyebrows--"do I want to know?"
14126said Kitty, impatiently--"what do you think?
14126said Kitty, still frowning--"eh, Blanche?"
14126save what work and"knowing more than the other fellows"might compel?
14126she asked--"or up- stairs?"
14126she gasped--"what note?"
14126she said, quietly--"or may I join your conversation?"
14126telegram to Worth?"
14126tell me--"--Lady Tranmore gripped Miss Lyster''s hand with some force--"are you going to marry him?"
14126what-- what will Lady Tranmore say?"
14126when did it come?"
14126where was she now?
14126you are interested in these things, Lady Kitty?
14126you mean Kitty?
38796''Er? 38796 ''Pray what is that to you?''"
38796A lecture, was it, Miss Vintry?
38796A post- matrimonial flirtation?
38796About Harry?
38796About what?
38796Accustomed to waiting for me?
38796Ah, Jack, how are you? 38796 Ah, miss,"said the butler, who had just come to lock up,"so you''d missed it?
38796All you''ve ever had? 38796 Am I different from the days of the lame pony and Curly?
38796Am I the first person who has ever dared to make such an insinuation? 38796 Am I?
38796An old friend too? 38796 An opportunity for what?"
38796An unlimited supply of the water of Lethe, pater? 38796 And Harry?"
38796And I suppose that since the old man made his pile--?
38796And Isobel?
38796And Miss Vintry? 38796 And able to cry?"
38796And because we''re both very attractive-- aren''t we?
38796And did they chuck him?
38796And father would n''t let you?
38796And how about dust and dirt, and getting very hot?
38796And if I made you unhappy?
38796And if nobody had any spare cash, what would become of them, either?
38796And in your holiday you''re going to help Harry, I hear?
38796And she''s a good girl''erself too, ai n''t she, Tom?
38796And this is n''t a passing sort of thing?
38796And what have you been doing with yourself, Andy?
38796And what might you be going to sing in London next, miss?
38796And what, or who, is your ideal?
38796And what,asked Belfield, with an air of turning to less important matters,"about the life of this Parliament?"
38796And why you think that the pony--?
38796And you would n''t mind? 38796 And you''re not goin''to shame her by refusin''the money now, are you?"
38796Another cup?
38796Any hidden meanings, Miss Vintry?
38796Any reward?
38796Are you doing anything to- night? 38796 Are you goin''to stay at home, or goin''back?"
38796Are you going to marry her?
38796Are you going to marry him?
38796Are you going to try and put your oar in?
38796Are you in love with him?
38796Are you never going to give me an opportunity?
38796Are you quite sure they brought the claret you ordered, Billy?--What''s that you said?
38796Are you ready, Wellgood?
38796Are you thinking of match- making, like a good father?
38796As far as a respectful kiss?
38796At any rate you''ll give me a good character?
38796At what hour will you require the car, Miss Flower?
38796Been to hear her?
38796Being able to ride-- having the opportunity-- and not caring-- that''s pearls before--?
38796Business doin''well?
38796But do n''t you want to go on?
38796But if you do, why do you stay?
38796But is n''t there a terrible lot of misery, father?
38796But pearls by no means always pearls?
38796But the rest?
38796But what is there for you to want here?
38796But what''s the matter, Mr. Rock? 38796 But when a-- a person like you says that sort of thing to me--""A person, like me?"
38796But where are you going to set up house, Jack?
38796But who was it told you?
38796But you believe it?
38796But you like me? 38796 But you wo n''t go away altogether, will you, Andy?
38796But you''ll be there in this too, so far as you can, wo n''t you? 38796 By the way, I''m afraid I drive your friend away?
38796Ca n''t I? 38796 Ca n''t you leave Harry Belfield out of it?"
38796Came to tell you about it, did he? 38796 Can I?
38796Can it be because of poor old Sally?
38796Could anything be more nicely exact to my parallel?
38796Could n''t you take just one turn with Vivien''s companion? 38796 Dear Andy, have you learnt what we have, I wonder?
38796Dear, you really are happy?
38796Did she say that?
38796Did they join you?
38796Did we? 38796 Did you come only to tease me?"
38796Did you ever know a marriage where each partner did n''t say,''I give, you take''? 38796 Did you ever know such a fool?"
38796Did you gather whether Lady Lucy was a married woman?
38796Did you like the speeches, Seymour?
38796Dined at Halton, did you?
38796Disgusted? 38796 Do I look all right, Seymour?"
38796Do n''t you now and then feel like backing out of it?
38796Do n''t you, Harry?
38796Do things between men and women change much, in spite of all the talk? 38796 Do you come often?"
38796Do you find it helps?
38796Do you happen to remember that it was you who gave me the germ of that idea?
38796Do you know that Miss Vintry well?
38796Do you know what it is to see somebody asking for help?
38796Do you know, that''s sentimental?
38796Do you mean--?
38796Do you mind very much?
38796Do you never break rules, Miss Vintry? 38796 Do you really think so?
38796Do you see Wellgood before you go to bed?
38796Do you think it would be painful to Miss Wellgood to see me?
38796Do you two men want to be alone together?
38796Do you, Jack?
38796Do you?
38796Does Vivien know yet?
38796Does Vivien take it like that, do you think?
38796Does he say anything else?
38796Does it hurt so much if they do?
38796Does n''t it?
38796Does n''t love come first-- when once it has come?
38796Does n''t thinking about me help you there? 38796 Does the dashing Mr. Harry Belfield need to have chances given him?
38796Dropped your sixpence in the pond, Miss Vintry?
38796End it? 38796 Even if Master Harry was disposed to play tricks, I do n''t think he''d get much encouragement from--""''T''other dear charmer?''
38796Ever coming to bed?
38796Excited and anxious, is she? 38796 Flourishing, Hayes?"
38796Foot''s brother was there-- Gilly Foot-- and--"Did they ask what she was like?
38796For my good? 38796 For nothing?"
38796From Montreal? 38796 From a quarter''s salary downwards?
38796Gad, is it?
38796Going for a walk, Jack?
38796Going to take a cab, Billy?
38796Got over it?
38796Had enough of it?
38796Had they heard about me?
38796Half of it''s their own fault, and for the rest-- hasn''t there always been? 38796 Harry, are you quite-- quite happy?"
38796Harry?
38796Has anybody got a copy-- well, another copy of''Coriolanus''?
38796Has he any plans?
38796Have I got to go to the Lion, Mr. Rock? 38796 Have I put you on your mettle?
38796Have they done well with their speeches?
38796Have you any notion of what I feel? 38796 Have you been helping?"
38796Have you been there long?
38796Have you been to call on Mrs. Harry Belfield?
38796Have you called there?
38796Have you considered that this arrangement--"Which we have supposed--"Would make you my mother- in- law?
38796Have you got any friends you could stay a month with?
38796Have you heard it, or did you guess, Doris?
38796He does n''t want me to come to Meriton--"I say, Doris, did Harry Belfield ever try to--?
38796He wants me-- outside? 38796 He''ll have much more trouble with me, wo n''t he?"
38796He''s like that?
38796Heavens, Andy, you would n''t think of sacrificing yourself-- and perhaps her-- to an idea like that?
38796How are you, Miss Vintry? 38796 How did you hear of that?"
38796How do you like the scheme?
38796How do you--?
38796How does it-- er-- take you?
38796How far would you carry the doctrine?
38796How long has Lady Lucy lasted?
38796How shall I persuade you that I care?
38796I beg pardon, Harry?
38796I beg your pardon, Miss Flower?
38796I beg your pardon, Miss Vintry? 38796 I beg your pardon; anything wrong?"
38796I did n''t say anything about it then, did I?
38796I do n''t know that it''s much good trying to deny it, is it, Jack?
38796I do n''t mind saying it,she observed, and to Andy''s astonishment she asked him,"What about your old friend the butcher?"
38796I hope you told them I meant business?
38796I hope you''ve been making yourself amusing, Andy?
38796I reserved the right to change my mind-- you remember?
38796I say, you ca n''t mean--?
38796I shall get you into trouble if I come in, shall I? 38796 I shall see you soon in London, Andy?"
38796I suppose it all seems uncommon queer to you, Andy?
38796I suppose it was Nellie who was to have the small cheque?
38796I suppose no woman has ever been to Nutley lately? 38796 I suppose there is n''t a hotel in this place, Miss Flower?"
38796I suppose you could n''t give me an opinion, Miss Wellgood?
38796I suppose you do n''t see much of those chaps now?
38796I thought Mrs. Belfield was always so punctual?
38796I''m afraid that''s awfully presumptuous?
38796I''m still that to you?
38796I? 38796 If Andy--?"
38796If a frontispiece is of any use to you, Gilly--?
38796If marriage demanded mutual understanding, what man or woman could risk it with eyes open?
38796If we''ve got them?
38796If winning meant the kiss?
38796In a large glass, eh, Andy?
38796In fact you''ll do your best to get him boycotted?
38796Is he friendly when you meet?
38796Is it as much to you as that?
38796Is it nothing if you think you could feel safe with me?
38796Is it true, Isobel?
38796Is it-- real?
38796Is lame enough to let me risk going home? 38796 Is my opinion to be as wrong as all that?
38796Is she very pretty?
38796Is that all you claim to be-- to any of those boys?
38796Is that so sad, if the religion is proved not to be true?
38796Is there any good in breaking them-- for nothing?
38796Is this action of yours really best for Miss Wellgood, or what she would wish?
38796Is this-- nice?
38796It does make his position seem-- just rather betwixt and between, does n''t it?
38796It has got a little bit of-- of the feeling, has n''t it?
38796It is n''t possible to feel quite comfortable about it, is it?
38796It seems silly, does n''t it? 38796 It was about-- Harry?"
38796It was n''t hard to guess, last night, was it? 38796 It''s a bit of a waste, is n''t it?"
38796It''s a promise?
38796It''s beautiful, but is n''t it-- just a little priggish?
38796It''s no use trying to unsay things, is it?
38796Jack Rock? 38796 Join us?
38796Just time, Wilson?
38796Know her, Andy?
38796Lady? 38796 Looks like it, do n''t it?
38796Lost your nerve, Harry?
38796Lucky there''s somebody ready to take her place, then, is n''t it?
38796May I be a little bit of your riches?
38796May I speak to you-- or am I no better than one of the wicked?
38796Meriton''s?
38796Mother and daughters? 38796 Much armour?"
38796My dear girl, are you out of your mind? 38796 No reason to suppose it wo n''t, is there?"
38796No, is he?
38796No, surely I did n''t? 38796 Nobody except yourself-- who else should?"
38796None of what? 38796 Not frightened now?"
38796Not going to take it down yourself, are you?
38796Nothing more than that?
38796Now Wellgood''s back?
38796Occurred to us, Vivien?
38796Of Kensington?
38796Of course it-- well, it sort of defines matters-- ties you down, eh?
38796Of something then? 38796 Oh yes, you worship Harry, do n''t you?
38796Oh, I say, may I come?
38796Oh, I''m sorry: There''s always so much to look at at the other tables, is n''t there?
38796Oh, Jack, would n''t you have been jealous? 38796 Oh, are people gossiping about that?
38796Oh, are you? 38796 Oh, but must you go just yet?
38796Oh, did n''t he?
38796Oh, not particularly well?
38796Oh, so that''s it?
38796Oh, that''s the word you''ve been thinking suits me?
38796Oh, that''s your idea, Jack? 38796 Oh, what the devil''s the good of trying to talk business here?"
38796Oh, your feelings have n''t developed?
38796Or a carrier pigeon? 38796 Or as we thought he was?"
38796Or by not being Vivien''s_ fiancé_ any longer?
38796Or did you tell them? 38796 Or even drunk too much?"
38796Or ought to be, to a man not so slow as I am?
38796Out of what?
38796Patriotic-- Who are the heaviest creditors?
38796Perhaps I''ve had a wireless telegram?
38796Perhaps you''ll forgive me if I say that I''m not altogether taken by surprise either?
38796Perhaps you''re just a little bit partial to Andy?
38796Playing lawn- tennis at Nutley, were n''t you?
38796Pray what is that to you?
38796Rather a disturbed evening, eh, Andy?
38796Rather a silly thing to have in this world, is n''t it?
38796Religiously strict? 38796 Risk what?"
38796Seen somebody?
38796Shall I break the rules?
38796Shall I walk back with you?
38796Shall we call it settled?
38796Shall we move, pater?
38796Shall you see Harry?
38796Shall you tell him that?
38796She hates them both, you think? 38796 She''s very nice about it, is n''t she?
38796Should you like it?
38796Should you object?
38796Sleepy, was n''t it? 38796 So have a lot of things been lately, have n''t they?
38796So they''ve done it, have they?
38796So you and Gilly are making it go? 38796 So your teasing is to be considered as a compliment?"
38796Something I did n''t like? 38796 Sort of thing they like, is n''t it?"
38796Sounds ridiculous, does n''t it? 38796 Splendid of him, is n''t it?
38796Still lingering?
38796Sudden?
38796Suppose I said yes-- and changed my mind?
38796Suppose we say to- morrow morning?
38796Surely nothing but what''s happy and peaceful and pleasant can ever happen here?
38796Surely some discretion is left to the trusty guardian?
38796Tales out of school? 38796 That accounts for the foolishness of the sentiments?"
38796That sounds very reasonable, but--"The best thing to hope about reason is to hope you wo n''t need it? 38796 That was what you were lookin''so happy about, was it?"
38796That''ll be all right to- morrow morning?
38796That''s the name of the town, is n''t it? 38796 The dear old Rector''s a little tiresome, Harry, is n''t he?
38796The delight of the eyes?
38796The feeling which I''ve always understood you never felt?
38796The horse might be heard neighing?
38796The natural end?
38796The oldest question since men had sons and women had lovers, is n''t it?
38796The usual place?
38796There, Isobel, are n''t we good?
38796Things getting on?
38796Thinking of enlisting me in your own service?
38796This woman here in love with him? 38796 To a girl?"
38796To dinner then?
38796To him that hath shall be given, eh?
38796To meet Meriton and Wigram?
38796Too complete a realization of matrimonial solitude_ à deux_ before marriage-- Is that advisable?
38796Towards me?
38796Treadmill again, old boy? 38796 Vivien"--a jerk of his head told that Vivien was in the drawing- room--"has sent me to say''How do you do?''
38796Was I in good voice?
38796Was I serious? 38796 Was he?"
38796Was that what you were crying about?
38796We shall never catch them, shall we? 38796 We wo n''t talk of the old things any more, will we?"
38796We''ve not been taught to think that in this house, have we, Vivien?
38796Well, Sally, been amusing yourself?
38796Well, a wire''s not always absolute secrecy in small towns, is it? 38796 Well, do n''t you know, what would a fellow do without him?"
38796Well, have the lovers bored you to death with their spooning since I''ve been away?
38796Well, he ca n''t see her himself, can he?
38796Well, how is she? 38796 Well, if he''d have no chance anyhow, could n''t you sort of let him know that?"
38796Well, if it is natural, why should n''t he think so?
38796Well, if that is the meaning of it, it certainly seems rather-- rather a rum start, eh, Andy? 38796 Well, is it all right?"
38796Well, it''s the safe thing, is n''t it, old chap?
38796Well, lad?
38796Well, miss, no offence, I hope? 38796 Well, she is about with you a good deal, is n''t she?
38796Well, waiting for a wedding''s tiresome work for all concerned, is n''t it?
38796Well, we shall be married soon, sha n''t we, mother?
38796Well, what do you think of her?
38796Well, what have you got to say, Vivien?
38796Well, why do n''t you come down too? 38796 Well, why not talk to Gilly?"
38796Well, you''ve been behind the scenes, have n''t you? 38796 Well, you''ve had it out, have n''t you?"
38796Well?
38796What Gilly thought?
38796What about Parliament? 38796 What about lunch?"
38796What about the great cause I sang for?
38796What about yours?
38796What am I? 38796 What are you going to do after we''re-- after the break- up here?"
38796What are you two talking about?
38796What brings her here?
38796What can have become of Harry?
38796What did you say his name was?
38796What did you say? 38796 What did you see?"
38796What do you ask?
38796What do you mean by--?
38796What do you mean, Doris?
38796What do you think really, Harry?
38796What do you want with supper after a good dinner?
38796What does Billy know about it?
38796What does he want to do it down here for? 38796 What else is there to take?"
38796What happens?
38796What has Vivien got to do with single lives?
38796What has all this got to do with the practical problem?
38796What have we done to you?
38796What have you against Kensington?
38796What house?
38796What is it, Andy?
38796What made you afraid of that?
38796What made you tell me you loved me to- night?
38796What made you think that?
38796What the devil can they want?
38796What''ll old Jack say?
38796What''s happened?
38796What''s it got to do with me?
38796What''s it worth to you?
38796What''s that?
38796What''s the matter with him, I wonder? 38796 What''s the use of this?"
38796What''s this new fad, Isobel? 38796 What''s worrying him, I wonder?"
38796What, Harry love? 38796 What, are you going to retire, Jack?"
38796What, he wanted to marry you too once?
38796What, you''d really think of it?
38796What? 38796 What?
38796When are you going to be married?
38796Where did you find it?
38796Where do you come from?
38796Where to now?
38796Where''s Harry?
38796Where''s Vivien?
38796Where''s the hurry?
38796Which did you say was Harry''s?
38796Which for the husband, which for the wife?
38796Who is she?
38796Who told you about Sally? 38796 Who''d have thought of that?"
38796Who''s got what style?
38796Who''s put that idea in your head?
38796Whose peace of mind are you destroying down here?
38796Why did you let me meet him, Andy?
38796Why do you go on repeating''Vivien''s father''?
38796Why do you say that it''s incongruous, coming from me?
38796Why do you think so? 38796 Why does it amuse you?"
38796Why not?
38796Why not?
38796Why should n''t I be? 38796 Why should n''t it be the policeman?"
38796Why the deuce ca n''t he say what he means?
38796Why, how do I look?
38796Why, it''s never--?
38796Why, of saying how awfully sorry and-- and ashamed I am that I yielded--"What''s the use of saying anything about it? 38796 Why?
38796Will I come? 38796 Will they get her out of the way?
38796Will you now? 38796 With Jack Rock?"
38796With her?
38796Would n''t she be? 38796 Would that be the best way to win you back?
38796Would you like me to come with you?
38796Would you mind looking at my pony''s right front leg?
38796Would you think me wrong if I did?
38796Yes, Mr. Belfield; the old gentleman would have been proud, would n''t he?
38796Yes, and the result-- when you''re ready?
38796Yes, but do you remember a talk we had about it once?
38796Yes, but it''s the way a man''s mind grows, is n''t it?
38796Yes, he''s getting no end of a swell, is n''t he?
38796You brought one of the girls to hear me one night, did n''t you?
38796You can never tell about that, can you, Mrs. Belfield? 38796 You come back to supper, after the meetin'', miss, and taste; but maybe you''ll be goin''back to London, or takin''your supper at Halton?"
38796You did? 38796 You do n''t mean to- night?"
38796You do n''t mind my asking your father to let me come and swim, if I''m here in the summer?
38796You do n''t seem to consider being engaged a very joyful period?
38796You do n''t think much of us, do you, Sally?
38796You do n''t want him to kill himself with work, Isobel?
38796You do n''t want to stay here alone, do you?
38796You do n''t?
38796You draw that distinction? 38796 You eat meat, do n''t you?"
38796You have thought of the other thing-- and you''re sure of that?
38796You know? 38796 You like all that sort of thing, Andy?"
38796You like the fellow, do you, Vivien?
38796You love me?
38796You mean he was n''t pleased?
38796You mean he''s spoilt? 38796 You mean it all depends on Harry, then?"
38796You mean she does n''t really appreciate her advantages? 38796 You really advise it?"
38796You really think I sha n''t make a fool of myself?
38796You remember him, girls? 38796 You saw him on Thursday?
38796You seem to manage to keep heart- whole, Andy?
38796You think I ought to be looking out for another situation? 38796 You think I shall?"
38796You think I''m very impudent?
38796You think it''s safe, though, anyhow?
38796You think the world of Andy, do n''t you, Doris?
38796You want it all over, do n''t you?
38796You wanted to go, Isobel?
38796You wo n''t ask me to go any further, if I admit that?
38796You wo n''t give me one chance?
38796You wo n''t think it necessary to mention to Mr. Harry all I''ve told you? 38796 You wo n''t upset all my notions of you, because you''ve become a great man now, will you, Andy?"
38796You''d guessed my feelings, Vivien? 38796 You''ll come to me first-- you wo n''t go to any one before me?"
38796You''ll excuse me, miss?
38796You''ll have tea with me, miss?
38796You''ll walk with me, wo n''t you?
38796You''re enjoying it, are n''t you?
38796You''re goin''to the meetin'', miss? 38796 You''re not looking out elsewhere?"
38796You''re really going to take rooms there?
38796You''re surprised to see me out so early, Mr. Hayes? 38796 You''re thinking of-- of coming to Meriton?"
38796You''re-- you''re Miss Flower?
38796You''re-- you''re not very disappointed, Andy? 38796 You''ve been here longer than I have-- do you know anything?
38796You''ve been in no hurry about it up to now-- and you seem in none to say''How do you do?'' 38796 You''ve forgiven me-- quite?"
38796You''ve heard that Harry''s married to Miss Vintry?
38796You''ve not refused?
38796''Did he, dear?
38796( Could despair sound more despairing?)
38796A Tory at home, why was he to be a democrat-- or a Socialist-- at the Antipodes?
38796A permanent reconciliation with these it could not, and dared not, ask; but a_ modus vivendi_ till it, transitory thing as it was, should pass away?
38796A stolen kiss may mean very different things-- almost nothing( not quite nothing, or why steal it?
38796A vague protest stirred in him; were they not too serene, too comfortable, too fortunate?
38796After him?
38796After you got my wire?
38796Am I preventing you?"
38796And I gather that they have husbands?
38796And I should think it did you good?"
38796And I''m sent home too, as usual?"
38796And Isobel?
38796And after school?
38796And all for what?
38796And at any rate I suppose you''ll admit I did the right thing when-- when the trouble came?"
38796And at it here too, I suppose?
38796And even then-- the attempt to make it practical?
38796And for her-- how if his approach seemed a rude intrusion, the invasion of a desolate yet still holy spot, sacrilege committed on a ruined shrine?
38796And he dotes on her?"
38796And he would go on like that indefinitely?
38796And how are Vivien and I to get through all this business of the wedding?"
38796And how are you?
38796And how could anybody help being fond of her?"
38796And if he did, could he bring her-- at all events so long as Miss Wellgood''s at Nutley?
38796And in what connection?
38796And into his father''s?
38796And into his own?
38796And must not acceptance, after all, breed some return?
38796And never ought to have been bought?
38796And that pretty girl, Miss Flower-- does she go back too?"
38796And that was his conclusion about his hero, the man to whom he owed, as he had said, almost everything he prized?
38796And the same in Harry''s?
38796And then we could keep him here instead of his going back to Canada; we should all be so pleased with that, and so would you, would n''t you?
38796And to try to tell Harry so again to- morrow?
38796And what will it be?"
38796And where lies the difference between selling wood and selling meat-- wood from Canada and meat in Meriton?
38796And why should n''t you?
38796And why will other stupid people laugh at them when so presented?
38796And you saw him off?
38796And you wo n''t forget to come round and see me in my dressing- room afterwards, will you?
38796And you''ve been searching for it, miss?"
38796And, after all, it may be as well to give the lady time to get quite sure too-- eh?"
38796Any chance of your being there-- as a family man?"
38796Any favourite song, Jack?"
38796Are n''t you starting rather big subjects?"
38796Are we to be driven out of our home?"
38796Are you ambitious?
38796Are you at the Lion?"
38796Are you fond of bathing?"
38796Are you likely to see Mr. Harry this morning?"
38796Are you off anywhere for Whitsuntide?"
38796Are you?"
38796At any rate she''s got the best right now, has n''t she?"
38796At least I suppose you mean--?"
38796At whose challenge was the shaken fortress like to fall?
38796Been away since?"
38796Being with Harry, loving Harry, being loved by--?
38796Besides, why should they want my advice?"
38796Bought at a great cost?
38796Burnt to death for a witch, poor girl, was n''t she?"
38796But Harry himself-- was he quite to forget those two walks to the gate?
38796But I suppose even to ask questions about him is treason to you?"
38796But I''m sure you do n''t feel like that about it, do you?
38796But Mr. Harry''s been in love before, has n''t he?"
38796But an attitude of independence, without any particular desire to pay the bills?
38796But as a lover-- a wooer?
38796But do n''t they look fools too?
38796But for a lover yet unmated, a bride still to be, a girl in her first love?
38796But if you''re going to stay-- and I hope you are, old fellow-- you''ll want some sort of a place of your own, wo n''t you?
38796But is n''t it splendid?"
38796But is to take nigh on five hundred pounds a year to undervalue yourself-- you who are making a precarious two?
38796But it does look a little queer, does n''t it?"
38796But it was being rather absurdly touchy, was n''t it?"
38796But meanwhile-- the time before the wedding?
38796But perhaps you ca n''t conceive life at Nutley being dull?"
38796But supposing-- merely supposing-- Mr. Wellgood did n''t agree?"
38796But the love- making men marry?"
38796But what if the chances did not come one''s way?
38796But what of London, Miss Isobel?
38796But what?
38796But when you next see Miss Dutton, will you tell her I sha n''t forget her kindness?
38796But where was her old friend Harry with his congratulations?
38796But which of''em does anything for me there?
38796But who had put into his hand the standard whereby to assess Isobel?
38796But you''re different, are n''t you, Harry?"
38796But"--he smiled and lifted his brows--"it''s a trifle sudden, is n''t it?"
38796But-- well, what''s up?"
38796But-- would you sing to us, miss, same as you did at that meetin''?"
38796But--""Well, where were you?"
38796By riding you mean--?"
38796By- the- bye, how did you hear about it?"
38796Calculated to recommend him to his friends, and to the constituency?"
38796Chance had put a marked florin on the mantelpiece for Wellgood; what were the chances of its being stolen, and of the theft being traced?
38796Come, Isobel, you see now you''ve no cause to be afraid of me, do n''t you?"
38796Competition and self- interest were the golden rule in England; was there to be another between England and her colonies?
38796Could he risk discovering that, after all, Harry-- and Harry''s friends-- thought of him like that?
38796Could not work command success?
38796Could she carry out her dangerous programme?
38796Could she have heard-- and Harry uttered them?
38796Could that idea give Andy a rag of comfort to wrap about his wound?
38796Could there be such words?
38796Could unpopularity go further or take any form more glaring?
38796Could you share a heart, Miss Vintry?"
38796Cuts up well, does n''t he?
38796D''ye see that sign?"
38796Did he forget?
38796Did he not want her to know Miss Wellgood, his_ fiancée_?
38796Did he tell you what-- what passed?"
38796Did n''t you think her pretty?"
38796Did n''t you want to give me my lesson to- day?"
38796Did not one offer itself now?
38796Did she think it nothing?
38796Did she think that, was she honest about it?
38796Did she wish that it offered yet more?
38796Did she-- or only he himself, the man he was?
38796Did the fox?
38796Did these exhaust the subject?
38796Did they not give cause enough for a father''s anger, deep and righteous, demanding vengeance?
38796Did you find the atmosphere too romantic?
38796Did you go to the churchyard, Andy?"
38796Did you like my speech?"
38796Did you notice that?
38796Did you say anything about it?"
38796Do n''t forsake me, will you?
38796Do n''t you see him, Sally?"
38796Do n''t you want to take me up to see her?"
38796Do you feel sure of it?"
38796Do you remember?"
38796Do you suspect any particular Kensingtonian?"
38796Do you think he''ll rush on his fate?
38796Do you think you can face her?"
38796Does your wife like being managed so much?
38796Doris, did he ever make love to you?"
38796Eminent authoress?
38796Even foolishly in love with her?
38796Even if Andy had seen, how could he interfere?
38796Every day after that-- when he must come to woo Vivien?
38796Everything seems going on very pleasantly?"
38796Excellent hotel, is n''t it, Mr. Rock?
38796Father had the offer-- you know that?
38796Follow the hounds on foot?
38796Foot?"
38796From the beginning Harry had found nothing to say; what was there?
38796From the one he had given her?
38796From those he had given Vivien before?
38796Getting the fat off?"
38796Gilly Foot--""I expect they were a bit surprised, were n''t they?"
38796Gilly pleased with you?"
38796Going straight again, do n''t you know?
38796Going to buy a Derby winner?"
38796Going to do anything about it?"
38796Going to find another place?"
38796Grubbing away?"
38796Had he been at Nutley-- at Halton-- only on sufferance?
38796Had he halted midway between honest truth and useful lying?
38796Had he, then, any right to the conclusion, right in the abstract though it might be?
38796Had he?
38796Had it come about-- so soon after the stolen kiss?
38796Had not Isobel all the difficult virtues which it was her own woeful task to learn?
38796Had she lost her power to disturb it?
38796Had the wind taken it?
38796Harry?
38796Harry?"
38796Has anything happened?"
38796Has n''t husband and wives become a more appropriate parallel?"
38796Have n''t I always trusted you?"
38796Have you ever been in love yourself?"
38796Have you just got here?"
38796Have you seen anything that would make Mr. Wellgood savage if he saw it?"
38796Have you seen the girl at the Empire-- the Nun?
38796Have you?
38796Havin''your fling, are you, Andy?
38796Hayes?"
38796Hayes?"
38796Hayes?"
38796He felt almost insulted-- did she not think him gentleman enough to apologise?
38796He felt amazed-- had she no anxiety about Andy?
38796He felt curious-- did she not feel the desire for an apology herself?
38796He paused a moment and asked, with an air of being rather ashamed of the question,"Is the sinner himself very desperate?"
38796He paused a moment, then added,"If I get down for a week- end, may I come and see you?"
38796He took out his watch and, as he looked at it, exclaimed with great irritation,"Why the devil does n''t this woman come?"
38796He wants just what a steady- going sensible fellow, as everybody says you are, can give him-- a bit of ballast, eh?"
38796He''s filled out, eh, Simpson?"
38796Help him, how?"
38796Her Kerchy was of holland clear, Tied to her bonny brow, I whispered something in her ear; But what is that to you?"
38796How are things at Meriton?
38796How could affectionate and loyal instincts stand against it?
38796How could he have thought to hold it in for an hour longer?
38796How could it be in any legitimate way Harry''s business what Wellgood wanted of Isobel Vintry?
38796How could she refuse to forgive the thing which alone gave her the right to be aggrieved?
38796How could they have timed his entrance so exactly as to suspect?
38796How could you think of me when you were quite wrapped up in Vivien Wellgood?
38796How did I find out about that?
38796How did it all happen?"
38796How did you leave Harry?"
38796How do you mean?"
38796How far do you think it is to Nutley?"
38796How if the buffer, forsaking its protective function, encroached on its own account?
38796How many doors would it not have shut?
38796How many uglies go to make one beautiful?
38796How much do you think Wellgood knows, or suspects?"
38796How much will that mean with Harry Belfield?"
38796How was Vivien bearing the encounter?
38796How?"
38796How?"
38796I ca n''t be hard on poor old Harry, can you?
38796I expect you ride fourteen, eh?"
38796I hate this waiting till October, do n''t you?
38796I hope Mrs. Belfield is all right?"
38796I hope she''s not too much cut up?"
38796I know it is rather an unusual thing to do, but I do n''t mind doing unusual things when they''re sensible, do you?
38796I said nothing wrong, did I?"
38796I say, I suppose I ought to-- to think it over?"
38796I say, I-- I suppose I ought to accept?
38796I say, will you come and meet Amaranth?"
38796I say-- I suppose you-- you have n''t heard anything of Vivien Wellgood?"
38796I should be so much obliged if you''d take it; and will you give it to him yourself?"
38796I suppose she got her knife into me, did n''t she?"
38796I think you''d like to help me there, would n''t you?"
38796I wonder if I may say two, Vivien?
38796I wonder if you would ever care to hear me sing?
38796I''m really afraid we''re not amusing Miss Dutton?"
38796If Sally or I behave badly, who cares?
38796If he seemed to them a possible leader, ought he to turn his back on the battle?
38796If misogyny is bad, is misandry any better?
38796If the opportunity were offered to me, do n''t you think I should be wise to accept?"
38796If there were any man at all, who could it be but Harry Belfield?
38796If this were Vivien''s mood in the light of her study of what her lover was, how would she stand towards the knowledge of what he did?
38796If you were engaged, would you like every word-- absolutely every word-- you said to another girl to be repeated to your_ fiancée_?"
38796If your pearls are indifferent as pearls, and your swine admirable as swine?
38796In this case she had used it only to send him a little faster whither he was going already; but did that touch the limits of it?
38796In three weeks now, is n''t it?"
38796Is it of something I might do-- or say?"
38796Is it the policeman again?"
38796Is it to be supposed that bride and bridegroom are putting the matter quite that way in their hearts?
38796Is n''t it-- usual?"
38796Is she alarming?"
38796Is that comprehensible?"
38796Is that enough?"
38796Is that nature''s view, even as it is so often art''s?
38796Is that why you''re out hunting?"
38796It might have been arranged on purpose, might n''t it?
38796It seems absurd?"
38796It was the worst fate of all; yet what other refuge had the despair of his friends?
38796It''s all settled then-- and you''re to be the M.P.?"
38796It''s funny, Jack, that both you and I should have chosen the single life, is n''t it?"
38796It''s not so terrible after all, is it?"
38796It''s not the least use going on, is it?"
38796Jeany daintily can kiss; But what is that to you?"
38796Know and not like-- in Vivien''s fashion?
38796Less for the sake of her peace, or greater for her enlightenment''s?
38796Let''s see, you''re--?"
38796Life was taking chances?
38796Lord Meriton''s compliments, and would Miss Flower oblige him and delight the meeting by singing the National Anthem at the close of the proceedings?
38796Might n''t you just ignore it?"
38796Mother and Daughters-- nothing in that?
38796Must I go on doing it?
38796Must he accept it whether he would or not?
38796Must he be considered in the game she was playing, or could he safely be neglected?
38796Must you go, Harry?"
38796Must you shiver, or blush, for him?
38796NO GOOD?
38796NO GOOD?
38796Never feel that way?"
38796Never mind playing second fiddle?"
38796No cause of complaint then?
38796No doubt; but should not the fight be fair?
38796No end of a grind-- and what do you get out of it?
38796No-- I mean-- are you?
38796Not only for the match?"
38796Not seen her?
38796Now was n''t this good-- that she should be here, having tea, getting at him like that?
38796Now you see quite a number of young men, I daresay?"
38796Oh, Andy, why ca n''t people think what they are doing to other people?
38796Oh, but you''re a late- dinner man, eh?"
38796Oh, my dear, you do n''t think I should change to you just because of a little unhappiness?
38796Oh, you''re thinking of the fastidiousness?
38796Oh, you''re tired to death-- do you ever sleep?
38796One of the heap of friends Mrs. Harry is making?"
38796Only we''re friends now, are n''t we?
38796Only-- do you never mind it?
38796Or a stolen victory?
38796Or could she not bear to speak of it, because it was so much more?
38796Or did you think I said London''s?"
38796Or is it only pity, only chivalry?
38796Or is it your choice?"
38796Or is this not business?
38796Or like that one?
38796Or the depths of the first and the depths of the second poured into the depths of the third to make immeasurable profundity?
38796Or was she provocative?
38796Or was she to arrogate to herself the privilege of being the only thief?
38796Or why marry her?
38796Or why should n''t Mr. Wellgood?
38796Or would the response to his parley be that, though the faithless might be faithless, yet the faithful must be faithful still?
38796Or would you rather I went away?"
38796Or-- or what time do you have tea?"
38796Ought n''t he to be thankful for the chance?
38796Oxon?
38796People who work well are well treated at Nutley; people who work badly--""Are n''t exactly petted?
38796Perhaps you''ve seen my picture in the papers?
38796Pretty good, Andy?"
38796Rather liked it, did n''t they?"
38796Rather silly, but that''s not her fault, is it?"
38796Rather spoonily, as some might think?
38796Really?
38796Rock?"
38796Rock?"
38796Rock?"
38796Said he''d resign from the hunt if your boy showed up, did he?
38796Seems strange, do n''t it?
38796Shall I call again on your reminiscences?"
38796Shall we go into the drawing- room, Vivien?
38796Shall you be back to tea?"
38796She asked him a sudden question:"Do you think Harry Belfield a selfish man?"
38796She had heard no tread, but what could she have heard save the beating of her own heart?
38796She must get used to things, must n''t she?"
38796She turned her eyes to Andy, and, to his great astonishment, asked,"Would you like to come too?"
38796She was impatient with Andy-- would Harry never come back from that path?
38796She''s not going with you?"
38796So I-- may I stay a few minutes with you, Doris?
38796Soberly now-- soberly now-- had he ever expected to be a part of all this?
38796Still it taught you a thing or two, I daresay?"
38796Still, it''s a ripping fine country, is n''t it?
38796Suddenly from the other side of it came a voice:"Hallo, is that you, Hayes?
38796Suppose she did not assent?
38796Suppose she followed the way of her feelings, if so be that they led her towards Harry Belfield?
38796Suppose she fought for herself, treachery or no treachery?
38796Suppose she put forth what strength she had to upset Wellgood''s plan, to fight for herself?
38796Surely Harry would never send him to the butcher''s shop?
38796Surely I, if anybody, ought to know it?"
38796Surely if she spoke like that-- actually recalling the critical occasion-- she could have no suspicion?
38796Surely she could be honest?
38796Surely she had resolution to withstand it and to do what was wise?
38796Surely that ought to bring sympathy?
38796Surely, that ought to draw some question or remark-- that"at last"?
38796Take the chance-- the bare chance-- that he had not seen anything, or not seen all?
38796Talk rules the world-- eh, Wellgood?"
38796Tell me-- you saw her off-- well-- how?"
38796That arrangement of the tables of comparison?"
38796That does it?"
38796That does n''t count?
38796That does n''t sound quite so oppressive, I hope?"
38796That''ll be all right, wo n''t it?
38796That''ll look well on the sign, wo n''t it?
38796The best thing in the world-- was it actually to be hers?
38796The engagement seemed but victory in the first bout; was it forbidden to try the best of three?
38796The fox ran straight now-- but had he never a thought in his mind?
38796The saying goes that words are given us to conceal our thoughts; has anybody ever ventured to say that lips and eyes are?
38796The shoe pinched there, did it?
38796The sooner you go in the better, is n''t it?"
38796The world of Meriton?
38796Then is she to come with him?
38796Then it was not all to the bad?
38796Then she asked abruptly,"Are you ever afraid?"
38796Then what to do?
38796Then why ca n''t you say yes?
38796Then why not be true?
38796Then-- did they suspect?
38796There was my old seat, between Chinks and the Bird-- you know?
38796There''s no particular hurry, is there?"
38796There''s times in a young chap''s life when bein''able to put up a bit o''the ready makes all the difference, eh?
38796This penetration was new; should he wish that it might become less or greater?
38796To allow herself to remember, to muse, to long-- for whom?
38796To break his engagement?
38796To forget him-- what could that be?
38796To give lectures?"
38796To know in future only Vivien''s companion, Miss Vintry?
38796To put it more brutally-- how much of a bore was she to make herself?
38796To tell Wellgood, too, that from to- morrow there was only Miss Vintry?
38796To what state of things might he any evening come back?
38796To- morrow, when she had promised to meet Harry?
38796Too much love- making for your taste?"
38796Vivien seems to like him, does n''t she?"
38796W''ere''s the''arm?''
38796Was Andy in the end right in leaving her utterly out of consideration?
38796Was blood nothing-- race, colour, memories, associations, the Flag, the Crown, and the Destiny?
38796Was he ashamed of her?
38796Was he going to send her away-- now?
38796Was he never to feel quite sure of her?
38796Was he to throw the last chance away?
38796Was he, Doris?"
38796Was her department in good order?
38796Was it more sensible to do nothing-- which was to favour the"row"--or to attempt something-- which was to work for the marriage?
38796Was it really as long ago as that since he had been in Meriton?
38796Was it the butcher''s shop?
38796Was it wonder, or contempt, or such sheer horror as the devotee has for atheism?
38796Was life taking chances?
38796Was n''t it enough for a chap like him to earn a good living honestly?
38796Was n''t it lucky?
38796Was oblivion a necessity?
38796Was she not blessed among the daughters of women?
38796Was that art or accident?
38796Was that coming about?
38796Was that what the little shake of her head had meant?
38796Was the concrete-- the personal-- form significant?
38796We do n''t do what we can for one another out of kindness, but for love?"
38796We get on together?"
38796We like him so much, and you must be very fond of him, are n''t you?
38796We''ll both be in it, wo n''t we, Andy?
38796Well, by the most wonderful chance, Billy Foot''s brother( you know Billy, do n''t you?
38796Well, could he be expected to be pleased?
38796Well, if men choose to take off fine new shoes and leave them lying about?
38796Well, old boy, how do you like it in the House?
38796Well, was not this a more agreeable state of things than that Isobel should be simply a bore to him, and he simply a bore to Isobel?
38796Wellgood?"
38796Wellgood?"
38796Wellgood?"
38796Wellgood?"
38796Were not they pearls?
38796What are we to say to her?
38796What are ye to do with''em, Jack?"
38796What brought Belfield to town?
38796What business was it of Wellgood''s if Andy did forget his manners and stare too hard at the girls?
38796What business was it of hers?
38796What chance has she of forgetting Harry here at Meriton?"
38796What could you expect with a Liberal Government in office?
38796What did he expect anyhow?
38796What did they say?"
38796What did you think of the speeches?"
38796What do think she said?"
38796What do you mean, old fellow?"
38796What do you say?"
38796What does it matter?"
38796What else can there be of a public nature affecting me?
38796What else could one be engaged to?
38796What else had he to show for a good deal of time-- to say nothing of wear and tear of the emotions?
38796What happened?"
38796What have you been afraid to speak to me about?"
38796What have you got?"
38796What makes you--?"
38796What might happen while he was away?
38796What on earth was he waiting for?
38796What other comment was there to make?
38796What shall we do when it''s over?
38796What the deuce are you doing there?
38796What then?
38796What was the use of listening to so much nonsense?
38796What was the use, when there was only one question to be asked about him-- who was the latest woman?
38796What was there to be frightened at?
38796What was to be done?
38796What would Vivien think?
38796What would become of literature and the drama?"
38796What would everybody think?
38796What''ll you bet me?"
38796What''s that about not being Vivien''s_ fiancé_ any longer?"
38796What''s the difference between timber and meat?"
38796What''s the difficulty?"
38796What''s the good of it all?
38796What''s the matter with it?"
38796What''s the matter, Sally?
38796What''s the matter?
38796What-- you''re not going back?"
38796When Andy sat down, without any peroration, she said to Billy,"Was he good?
38796When did it happen-- and when is it going to happen?"
38796When did you say they were going to be married?"
38796When you were about town-- don''t you remember?"
38796Where are you off to?"
38796Where does the fun come in, Andy?"
38796Where have you been all this time?"
38796Where is one to go for quiet if things happen in Meriton?"
38796Where is she?"
38796Where the great success of which Vivien had been wo nt to talk shyly?
38796Where was ambition going to stop?
38796Where was the brilliant career?
38796Where''s Vivien?"
38796Which side is he?"
38796Whither?
38796Who at Halton had once talked about pearls and swine?
38796Who can take what fate never offers?
38796Who do you think came in while we were at tea?"
38796Who else sees her-- who else goes to Nutley?"
38796Who else was there?
38796Who first had undermined that accepted view of destiny, had disordered that well- schooled, almost Sunday- schooled, scheme of her life?
38796Who knows?"
38796Who should not listen if Harry loved to hear?
38796Who tempted him?
38796Who''s Lady Lucy?
38796Who, if not she, should know that neither his plighted word nor his hottest impulse could be relied upon to last?
38796Who, if not she, should know that you never could be sure of Harry?
38796Whose shawl?"
38796Why deceive when he loved?
38796Why did n''t he own up about Miss Vintry?"
38796Why did n''t you come in?"
38796Why do n''t you bring him here, Harry?"
38796Why does n''t he come in?
38796Why had Andy gone out-- and Harry Belfield not come in?
38796Why had she mocked, why had she hinted?
38796Why look at me?"
38796Why not a friend?
38796Why not?
38796Why should it not stand for them still, just as well as, or better than, London?
38796Why talk of happiness being murdered?
38796Why these heroics and this despair?
38796Why was the answer obvious?
38796Why waste him?
38796Why will people make our own most reasonable thoughts ridiculous by their silly way of putting them?
38796Why, you''re--""What am I?"
38796Will you bet me a kiss?"
38796Will you call Sally?"
38796Will you come?"
38796Will you keep me company indoors, and forgive my cigar, Miss Vintry?"
38796Will you stroll with me as far as Halton?"
38796Will you take them-- without reserve?"
38796Will you, lad?"
38796Wo n''t you give me just three minutes?"
38796Wo n''t you really let us have ten minutes more?
38796Worth that, is it now, really?
38796Would Harry accept the conclusion?
38796Would he brave the shot, or what hand would turn away the threatening barrel?
38796Would n''t you like a little on your own account?"
38796Would the flag dip and the gates open at his summons?
38796Would the interval of a few brief weeks have wrought a like change in her?
38796Would the mail from Montreal bring a remittance for the rent of the London office?
38796Would the visit come into play after all, unless she consented?
38796Would you like time to consider?"
38796Would you like to have another look in the shop?"
38796Yes, yes; or where lay the marvel of this repentance?
38796Yet he had come hot of heart, resolved-- resolved on what?
38796You did n''t know I was in town, did you?
38796You had n''t thought of that?
38796You have n''t pressed me, have you?"
38796You know he wo n''t hurt you, do n''t you?"
38796You know him?"
38796You know who I am, do n''t you?"
38796You know?
38796You leave the other side to put their three points?"
38796You remember I always said you''d make your way?
38796You remember?"
38796You said the timber was worth about two hundred a year to you?"
38796You think there''s that other motive?
38796You wanted Andy to have the shop, did n''t you?"
38796You were at the meeting last night, were n''t you?
38796You would n''t like to come too?"
38796You''ll attend to anything that turns up, wo n''t you, old chap?"
38796You''ll be seeing Mr. Belfield soon?
38796You''ll go on being the old Andy we all know, who never makes any claims, who puts up with everybody''s whims, who always expects to come last?"
38796You''re Mr. Hayes, are n''t you?
38796You''re not afraid of me?"
38796You''re not surprised or-- or shocked?"
38796You''ve heard him talk about the Pentathlon?
38796You''ve something in your mind, have n''t you?
38796You-- you would n''t think it--?"
