1565 | ''But, hark ye, Stratonice,''said Lydon;''how didst thou come by so gentle and delicate a slave? |

1565 | ''Can I not visit him?'' |
1565 | ''Can admiration to one woman make me unworthy the friendship of another? |

1565 | ''Did I not tell thee that thou shouldst be my sister and friend? |
1565 | ''Did you learn these pretty gallantries at Rome?'' |
1565 | ''Did you say she was Athenian?'' |

1565 | ''Do you wish Fulvius to sing?'' |
1565 | ''Does not beauty constrain our admiration?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou claim the body of a priest of Isis as one of the Nazarene or Christian sect?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou fear?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou feel that, for his sake, thou couldst renounce pride, brave dishonour, and incur death? |
1565 | ''Dost thou not fear thy companion?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou not imagine, according to thy belief, that the evil- doer is punished hereafter, and the good rewarded?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou not remember my voice?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou recognize the Romans, my Clodius; are they among the celebrated, or are they merely ordinary?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou remember the words, my sister?'' |
1565 | ''Dost thou think, then, that he who is truly good should sacrifice every selfish interest in his zeal for virtue?'' |
1565 | ''Egyptian,''said the praetor, frowning,''thou didst, then, dare to imprison a priest of the gods-- and wherefore?'' |
1565 | ''Exactly like this water in appearance?'' |
1565 | ''For what purpose, then, thy herbs and thy potions, vain Saga?'' |
1565 | ''For what?'' |
1565 | ''Glaucus, I am a slave; what business have I with grief or joy?'' |
1565 | ''Glaucus, wilt thou take my poor flowers? |
1565 | ''Had the earthquake but a few nights since no warning?'' |
1565 | ''Has he forgotten,''she added, in a half- whisper,''his friends of the last year?'' |
1565 | ''Has it not a voice? |
1565 | ''Hast thou dwelt here long?'' |
1565 | ''Hast thou ever heard much,''asked she,''of this new sect of the Nazarenes, of which my brother spoke?'' |
1565 | ''Hast thou heard the news, old Medon?'' |
1565 | ''Hast thou seen the lion? |
1565 | ''Hast thou told living ear what thou didst witness?'' |
1565 | ''He has been accused publicly, then?'' |
1565 | ''He is too wealthy to divine for money?'' |
1565 | ''Hem!--say they that she is tall?'' |
1565 | ''Ho, my child, wait you for me?'' |
1565 | ''Ho-- what art thou?'' |
1565 | ''How can I judge?'' |
1565 | ''How do you find the ladies of Pompeii generally?'' |
1565 | ''How is he?'' |
1565 | ''How is that possible? |
1565 | ''How is the murderer?'' |
1565 | ''How is this? |
1565 | ''How is this? |
1565 | ''How mean you, Sallust?'' |
1565 | ''How much? |
1565 | ''How much? |
1565 | ''How now? |
1565 | ''How shall I thank thee, fair Nydia?'' |
1565 | ''I have not seen her this morning,''answered Nydia,''but...''''But what? |
1565 | ''I heard that thou wert purchased by the beautiful Greek Glaucus; is that true, pretty slave?'' |
1565 | ''I trust,''said Sosia, tremulously,''that there is nothing very frightful in the operation? |
1565 | ''I will seek him this very day,''resumed Julia;''nay, why not this very hour?'' |
1565 | ''If this be true, what-- what can be done to save her? |
1565 | ''If thou knowest me, canst thou not recall my features?'' |
1565 | ''If( he reasoned) I have the genius to impose laws, have I not the right to command my own creations? |
1565 | ''If, O Nazarene, thou disbelievest in Cybele, which of our gods dost thou own?'' |
1565 | ''In what legion have you served?'' |
1565 | ''In what?'' |
1565 | ''Ione,''said he, as he pressed her hand,''should you hear my name blackened and maligned, will you credit the aspersion?'' |
1565 | ''Ione?'' |
1565 | ''Is Nature ordinarily so unattractive?'' |
1565 | ''Is he a citizen or a slave?'' |
1565 | ''Is he thy son?'' |
1565 | ''Is he, too, an impostor? |
1565 | ''Is it an Athenian virtue, Glaucus,''said the merchant''s daughter,''to shun those whom we once sought?'' |
1565 | ''Is it he? |
1565 | ''Is it indeed so? |
1565 | ''Is it so?'' |
1565 | ''Is it thy zeal that has brought thee to this? |
1565 | ''Is she as handsome as they say?'' |
1565 | ''Is she young?'' |
1565 | ''Is the effect instantaneous?'' |
1565 | ''Is there no hope, then?'' |
1565 | ''Is this Clodius? |
1565 | ''Is thy mistress Julia within?'' |
1565 | ''It was from that feeling that you chose your summer retreat at Pompeii?'' |
1565 | ''Kind son, what is there in this scrip to tempt the robber? |
1565 | ''Knowest thou, then, blind Thessalian, of any love- charms?'' |
1565 | ''Knowest thou,''said she,''if Ione has any relative, any intimate friend at Pompeii?'' |
1565 | ''Letter!--which letter?'' |
1565 | ''Lodges she near this?'' |
1565 | ''Magic!--who doubts it?'' |
1565 | ''Man,''said Nydia, rising,''wilt thou become free? |
1565 | ''May I enter?'' |
1565 | ''May I visit thee afterwards to learn the result?'' |
1565 | ''May Julia rank among the number of his friends?'' |
1565 | ''Methinks I know thy voice? |
1565 | ''Methought when we entered,''said Clodius,''there was another man present?'' |
1565 | ''My child,''said Ione, a little more reservedly than before,''thou speakest warmly-- Glaucus, then, is amiable in thine eyes?'' |
1565 | ''My good fellow,''said he to his companion, it was a most awful judgment-- heigho!--it is not bad that kid, eh? |
1565 | ''My son,''said the Egyptian,''what has chanced that you desire to shun me?'' |
1565 | ''Nay, would you have me relate to you all the comments of the insolent coxcombs with which the story has circled through the town? |
1565 | ''Never fear, we''ll fill the purse, my Hector,''said Clodius:''let me see-- you fight against Niger? |
1565 | ''No matter, no matter-- he has been kind to me: thou knowest not, then, what they will do? |
1565 | ''No, no; tell me, dear Sosia, what is the hour?'' |
1565 | ''No: is it handsome?'' |
1565 | ''Oh? |
1565 | ''On whom then?'' |
1565 | ''Or me, who have conquered in fifteen fights?'' |
1565 | ''Or me?'' |
1565 | ''Or of Sappho?'' |
1565 | ''Pardon me, noble sponsor mine,''said Lydon, in a low voice to Glaucus:''but how much think you the victor will gain?'' |
1565 | ''Pardon me-- your name?'' |
1565 | ''Perhaps he would let me kill a slave for my reservoir?'' |
1565 | ''Poor fellow!--he has good counsel?'' |
1565 | ''Sallust,''said the magistrate,''where found you Calenus?'' |
1565 | ''Say you so?'' |
1565 | ''Sayest thou so? |
1565 | ''Seest thou no one?'' |
1565 | ''Shall I guess the object?--Is it not Diomed''s daughter? |
1565 | ''Shall I speak then to thee only of Isis?'' |
1565 | ''Shall the shadow disclose itself?'' |
1565 | ''Shall we within to your chamber, Arbaces?'' |
1565 | ''Shall yon blind girl sing to thee of the days of childhood? |
1565 | ''She is not yours yet, then?'' |
1565 | ''Since thou leftst me so abruptly,''said Olinthus,''hast thou been happy? |
1565 | ''So Glaucus denies his crime to the last?'' |
1565 | ''So she is a sort of client of yours, this child?'' |
1565 | ''Some conference touching the murder, doubtless,''replied Diomed;''but what was supposed to be the inducement to the crime? |
1565 | ''Some little lore have I indeed, treasured up,''replied Arbaces:''but in what can such serious and sterile secrets benefit the ear of beauty?'' |
1565 | ''Sosia, how much dost thou require to make up the purchase of thy freedom?'' |
1565 | ''Speak, prisoner, what sayest thou to the charge?'' |
1565 | ''Sphinx, no!--why sphinx?'' |
1565 | ''Sure, pretty one: but what is that to thee or to us?'' |
1565 | ''Talking of that, Diomed gives a grand feast next week,''said Sallust:''are you invited, Glaucus?'' |
1565 | ''Tell me, Clodius,''said the Greek at last,''hast thou ever been in love?'' |
1565 | ''Tell me,''said Glaucus, abruptly,''did I not hear thy name coupled with that of Apaecides in my trial? |
1565 | ''Tell me,''said she, suddenly, and after a long pause,''are ye brother and sister?'' |
1565 | ''The gods be praised!--and you will not admit me? |
1565 | ''Then I may stay over the night, and return to- morrow?'' |
1565 | ''Then, then, I am to go with you-- with you? |
1565 | ''There-- thou canst not see?'' |
1565 | ''They accuse the Athenian of murder: canst thou disprove the accusation?'' |
1565 | ''They tell me that Glaucus is here,''said she;''may I come in?'' |
1565 | ''Thine?'' |
1565 | ''Thinkest thou so? |
1565 | ''Thinkest thou that the gods above us or below hear the impotent ravings of dotage? |
1565 | ''This is kind, Apaecides,''said Ione, joyfully;''and how eagerly have I wished to see thee!--what thanks do I not owe thee? |
1565 | ''This young profligate, this Glaucus, how didst thou know him? |
1565 | ''Thou art grateful, and deservedly so; why should I blush to say that Glaucus is worthy of thy gratitude? |
1565 | ''Thou art late abroad; has the goddess revealed herself to thee in visions?'' |
1565 | ''Thou art provided as for a journey, father,''said he:''wilt thou leave us yet?'' |
1565 | ''Thou comest to me for advice in unhappy love,''said he;''well, turn that face on the ungrateful one: what other love- charm can I give thee?'' |
1565 | ''Thou didst behold the deed?'' |
1565 | ''Thou hast looked, they tell me, on the face of Christ?'' |
1565 | ''Thou knowest the banquets of the dead, stranger-- it pleases thee, perhaps, to share them-- would it please thee to have thy sister a partaker? |
1565 | ''Thou wert to tell me,''said Glaucus,''why for so many days thy door was closed to me?'' |
1565 | ''Thou wilt go to Ione,''answered Glaucus, in a tone that said,''What more canst thou desire?'' |
1565 | ''Thou, then, hast shared his lessons?'' |
1565 | ''To a magistrate? |
1565 | ''To be sure; where have you been not to hear that?'' |
1565 | ''To happiness or to woe?'' |
1565 | ''To the house of Arbaces-- of the Egyptian? |
1565 | ''To what dost thou bear me?'' |
1565 | ''To whom?'' |
1565 | ''To- morrow eve, then, order thy litter-- thou hast one at thy command?'' |
1565 | ''To- morrow? |
1565 | ''Was I young once, think ye?'' |
1565 | ''Well, Clodius, shall I take compassion on you, and accept your own terms with these Romans?'' |
1565 | ''Well, Nazarene,''replied the priest, and his face grew paler;''what wouldst thou?'' |
1565 | ''Well, Sosia, and art thou prepared? |
1565 | ''Well, but tell me, Clodius, is he really to be tried by the senate?'' |
1565 | ''Well, man, what is your weapon?'' |
1565 | ''Well, then, Calenus, what wouldst thou have me pay thee?'' |
1565 | ''Well-- ten to eight?'' |
1565 | ''What Pompeian has not heard of Arbaces?'' |
1565 | ''What art thou?'' |
1565 | ''What avails thy liberty now, blind girl?'' |
1565 | ''What campaign have you served?'' |
1565 | ''What can be worse policy,''said Clodius, sententiously,''than to interfere with the manly amusements of the people?'' |
1565 | ''What can he want with me? |
1565 | ''What could have been his inducement?'' |
1565 | ''What could have been the cause?'' |
1565 | ''What dost thou want, or whom Knowest thou not that the priests do not live in the temple?'' |
1565 | ''What hast thou to say?'' |
1565 | ''What if the sublime faith of the Nazarene be true? |
1565 | ''What is that to thee?'' |
1565 | ''What is the design?'' |
1565 | ''What is this?'' |
1565 | ''What is your name, fair girl?'' |
1565 | ''What mean you, Arbaces?'' |
1565 | ''What means this raving?'' |
1565 | ''What news from Rome?'' |
1565 | ''What now?'' |
1565 | ''What say you, Glaucus?'' |
1565 | ''What story could he tell against me, vain Lydon?'' |
1565 | ''What think you of this new sect, which I am told has even a few proselytes in Pompeii, these followers of the Hebrew God-- Christus?'' |
1565 | ''What words are these?--Murder and Apaecides!--Did I not see him stretched on the ground bleeding and a corpse? |
1565 | ''What, Arbaces? |
1565 | ''What, parted in front, with the knot behind? |
1565 | ''What, you will not extinguish it?'' |
1565 | ''When is our next wild- beast fight?'' |
1565 | ''Where is my daughter Julia?'' |
1565 | ''Where is thy master? |
1565 | ''Which way lies Sallust''s mansion?'' |
1565 | ''Whither wouldst thou lead me, Arbaces?'' |
1565 | ''Who accuses him?'' |
1565 | ''Who are ye?'' |
1565 | ''Who art thou, whence comest thou, pale maiden?'' |
1565 | ''Who art thou? |
1565 | ''Who art thou? |
1565 | ''Who calls?'' |
1565 | ''Who calls?'' |
1565 | ''Who could be otherwise?'' |
1565 | ''Who is there?'' |
1565 | ''Who is yon cynic?'' |
1565 | ''Who is, when the object of them is so fair?'' |
1565 | ''Who sent to previse thee of it, my mistress?'' |
1565 | ''Who''s there?'' |
1565 | ''Who( it said) is my companion in this awful hour? |
1565 | ''Who,''said the Nazarene,''calls upon the son of God?'' |
1565 | ''Whom shall we get for him to eat?'' |
1565 | ''Why do I ever bet but at the dice?'' |
1565 | ''Why dost thou drink that unmixed water, Nydia? |
1565 | ''Why dost thou laugh, old crone?'' |
1565 | ''Why not take one of the new sect of Nazarenes?'' |
1565 | ''Why not?'' |
1565 | ''Why so?'' |
1565 | ''Why this delay? |
1565 | ''Why, Nydia?'' |
1565 | ''Why, Nydia?'' |
1565 | ''Why, thou seest, my slave Staphyla-- thou rememberest Staphyla, Niger?'' |
1565 | ''Will you not be avenged on your ill- fortune of yesterday? |
1565 | ''Will you read the letter, Sallust?'' |
1565 | ''Will you that I should sing of love?'' |
1565 | ''Wilt thou never have done?'' |
1565 | ''Wilt thou not wait the morrow?'' |
1565 | ''Wilt thou prove my knowledge, Ione, and behold the representation of thine own fate? |
1565 | ''Wilt thou save him?'' |
1565 | ''Wilt thou summon Davus? |
1565 | ''Wilt thou take me to her?'' |
1565 | ''With whom wouldst thou confer? |
1565 | ''Would you, indeed?'' |
1565 | ''Yes, wise Arbaces-- I trust my visit is not unseasonable?'' |
1565 | ''Yes; and placed some beautiful nuts and apples on a little table close by?'' |
1565 | ''Yet how canst thou contrive it? |
1565 | ''Yet more, fair maiden; wilt thou confide to me the name of thy lover? |
1565 | ''Yet,''he added, musingly to himself,''why confide more than is necessary, even in the blind-- Julia, canst thou trust thyself alone with me? |
1565 | ''You are early abroad?'' |
1565 | ''You are sure it will be as much?'' |
1565 | ''You have but lately returned?'' |
1565 | ''You have written to Glaucus?'' |
1565 | ''You often hint that he plays unfairly-- think you so really?'' |
1565 | ''You will see, my friend,''said he, with a wave of his hand,''that I am a little classical here-- a little Cecropian-- eh? |
1565 | ''Your cook is, of course, from Sicily?'' |
1565 | ''Your country?'' |
1565 | A voice from within returned,''Peace with whom?'' |
1565 | A weak voice answered--''Who calls on me? |
1565 | About evermore we bear thee; For who from the heart can tear thee? |
1565 | Against whom shall I contend? |
1565 | Ah, I need not ask-- for who that sees the earth, which they tell me is so beautiful, can be ill?'' |
1565 | Am I a man to think of--(hiccup)--pleasure, when-- when-- my friend is going to be eat up?'' |
1565 | Am I happy, ask you? |
1565 | Am I not the oracle of the amphitheatre and its heroes? |
1565 | Am I to believe with this man, that none whom for so many centuries my fathers worshipped have a being or a name? |
1565 | Am I to break down, as something blasphemous and profane, the very altars which I have deemed most sacred? |
1565 | Am I too bold? |
1565 | And Arbaces felt the voice leave his lips, without an impulse of his own; and the voice asked:''Who art thou, and what is thy task?'' |
1565 | And am I now to be lectured by a boy?'' |
1565 | And doth Glaucus visit her much?'' |
1565 | And for such a trifle wilt thou refuse liberty?'' |
1565 | And for what? |
1565 | And had she doubted his faith, and had she believed another? |
1565 | And hast thou left the garden- gate gently open?'' |
1565 | And have I not received the rod from the editor''s own hand as a sign of victory, and as a grace to retirement on my laurels? |
1565 | And having tarried so long, why revealest thou now that knowledge?'' |
1565 | And is not even thy bitterest tone sweeter to me than the music of the most artful lute? |
1565 | And now, what form steals yonder through the boughs? |
1565 | And tell me if there ever, even in the ages most favorable to glory, could be a triumph more exalted and elating than the conquest of one noble heart? |
1565 | And the gate is open now, so that the demon may pass through it?'' |
1565 | And this Egyptian, was he a priest himself? |
1565 | And thou lovest him who loves not thee?'' |
1565 | And thy name, stranger?'' |
1565 | And where a tyrant sterner? |
1565 | Arbaces felt himself tremble as he asked again,''Wherefore am I here?'' |
1565 | Arbaces is not one to be credulously trusted: can it be that he hath wronged me to thee? |
1565 | Arbaces shall be obeyed-- and his ward, Ione?'' |
1565 | Arbaces was the accuser of Glaucus; Arbaces had imprisoned her here; was not that a proof that her liberty might be serviceable to Glaucus? |
1565 | Arbaces-- thine? |
1565 | Are such things to be borne? |
1565 | Are they blue? |
1565 | Are they not all represented to you as the blackest of criminals? |
1565 | Are they not love- charms enough to dispense with magic?'' |
1565 | Are we thus torn asunder? |
1565 | Are you hurt? |
1565 | Are your faces then the same? |
1565 | Art thou happy?'' |
1565 | Art thou not the priest Apaecides?'' |
1565 | Art thou well advised of this?'' |
1565 | At length, with an inward groan, Glaucus turned away, drew his hand across his brow, sunk back, and muttered:''Am I still dreaming?'' |
1565 | Athenian Glaucus, it is thou?'' |
1565 | But I desire to confer with you relative to him and to other matters: you can admit me into one of your less sacred apartments?'' |
1565 | But does Sallust entertain to- night?'' |
1565 | But for the method of my vengeance? |
1565 | But for what can you seek Glaucus?'' |
1565 | But say, shall Julia be indeed your friend?'' |
1565 | But speak out-- what shall be the sum?'' |
1565 | But tell me, Arbaces, hast thou seen my brother of late? |
1565 | But think you, young man, that if they had not deceived their kind they could have served them? |
1565 | But what are the doubtful virtues of the Athenian, to the bright, the undisputed, the active, the unceasing, the devoted holiness of Christ? |
1565 | But what desirest thou to learn?'' |
1565 | But what fear of that? |
1565 | But what hath the fate of the Athenian to do with thine?'' |
1565 | But what matter? |
1565 | But what merit in courage, when that atheistical hound, Olinthus, manifested the same?'' |
1565 | But what words can paint the intolerable woe, the sinking of the whole heart, which was now visible on the features of the Thessalian? |
1565 | But who is Ione?'' |
1565 | But why, my child, wert thou so suddenly angry? |
1565 | But, pray what has become of the poor girl who was to have we d the Athenian-- the sister of the murdered priest?'' |
1565 | But, woman,''he added, lifting himself upon his arm, and gazing curiously on her face,''tell me, I pray thee, wherefore thou wishest to live? |
1565 | By- the- by, your son is a gladiator, a handsome man and a strong, can you not persuade him to fight the tiger? |
1565 | Calenus-- seekest thou me?'' |
1565 | Can I make to him the same confidences that he would repose in me-- of banquets and garlands-- of Parthian steeds, and the chances of the dice? |
1565 | Can he be Pompeian, and despise wealth, even if blind to beauty?'' |
1565 | Can thy gods, whosoever they be, look with wrath on a conflict with such as these, and in such a cause? |
1565 | Can we not get him amongst us, and teach him the charms of dice? |
1565 | Can you conceal, can you even regulate, your love for Ione?'' |
1565 | Canst thou confound me with them? |
1565 | Canst thou forgive thy friend, Ione?'' |
1565 | Canst thou not recognize something kindred to thine own energy-- thine own courage-- in this high and self- dependent soul? |
1565 | Canst thou save the Athenian Glaucus from the charge against his life?'' |
1565 | Come hither!--place your hand on his heart!--sure it beats yet?'' |
1565 | Could I hear thy groans, could I witness thy mysterious horrors, thy constant anguish, and remain inactive? |
1565 | Could it distress thee if she were away from thy side? |
1565 | Couldst thou feel when she was present? |
1565 | Dark haired?'' |
1565 | Daughter of Etruria, whither wendest thou?'' |
1565 | Did I hear aright? |
1565 | Did it not say to us all,"Prepare for death; the end of all things is at hand?"'' |
1565 | Did not Ariadne dote upon Bacchus?'' |
1565 | Did not the stars foretell the only crisis of imminent peril to which I was subjected?--Is not that peril past?'' |
1565 | Did thy parents love, or didst thou? |
1565 | Did thy slow blood circulate more gladly when thou didst creep to the side of thy wedded one? |
1565 | Did you not hear the trumpets and the trampling feet?'' |
1565 | Didst thou know aught of the Egyptian?'' |
1565 | Didst thou not complain to me that thou wert compelled to offices that were not odious to thee as a slave, but guilty as a Nazarene? |
1565 | Didst thou not feel the earth quake, Nydia, where thou wert seated last night? |
1565 | Didst thou not tell me this? |
1565 | Do I offend thee? |
1565 | Do I overrate thy skill? |
1565 | Do I say that on the tablet which my tongue has hesitated to breathe? |
1565 | Do they her beauty keep? |
1565 | Do thy fellow- slaves tell thee she is handsome? |
1565 | Do you imagine that they have eyes to see, or ears to hear, or hands to help ye? |
1565 | Do you sup with Glaucus to- night?'' |
1565 | Does any rich patron give away alms or viands to- night?'' |
1565 | Does he find her handsome?'' |
1565 | Does the veil of Vesta hide the vices of the prostitute?'' |
1565 | Does this man, so plain and simple in life, in garb, in mien-- does he too, like Arbaces, make austerity the robe of the sensualist? |
1565 | Dost thou believe me guilty?'' |
1565 | Dost thou hear them drag yon heavy body through the passage? |
1565 | Dost thou interest thyself for him? |
1565 | Dost thou remember how we went into the fields by Baiae, hand in hand together, to pluck the flowers of spring? |
1565 | Dost thou see the likeness-- or is it only to my fancy?'' |
1565 | Eh?'' |
1565 | Endymion, sleepest thou so soundly? |
1565 | Enjoy while ye may the present-- who can read the future? |
1565 | Enough!--Is the morning fair?'' |
1565 | FATE WRITES HER PROPHECY IN RED LETTERS, BUT WHO SHALL READ THEM? |
1565 | Fair Julia, look in the mirror; saw you ever anything so lovely as yourself?'' |
1565 | Fie!--is this seeming thy sex or years? |
1565 | Five-- six-- sixty years? |
1565 | For where a mien more gently sweet? |
1565 | For where is the charm expelling Thy thought from its sacred dwelling? |
1565 | Forget not this hour,--what are the pleasures and the pomps of life? |
1565 | Give it no name-- earth has no name for it-- it is not of earth-- why debase it with earthly epithets and earthly associations?'' |
1565 | Greek?'' |
1565 | Had not the great Dorian Apollo expiated a mystic sin by descending to the grave? |
1565 | Had they confined their researches to Nature-- what of knowledge might we not already have achieved? |
1565 | Happy should I be to receive his friendship; but what can I give him in return? |
1565 | Has he not convinced thee of the wisdom of deluding the people and enjoying ourselves? |
1565 | Has it begun-- the amphitheatre? |
1565 | Has she not money, and youth, and loveliness? |
1565 | Hast thou ever heard the name of Ione?'' |
1565 | Hast thou laid flowers at the feet of the dead? |
1565 | Hast thou seen him often?'' |
1565 | Hast thou that feeling which the poets describe-- a feeling that makes us neglect our suppers, forswear the theatre, and write elegies? |
1565 | Hast thou the bowl of pure water?'' |
1565 | Hath she been uttering foul magic to the moon, or culling( as her pauses betoken) foul herbs from the venomous marsh? |
1565 | Have I seemed to shun him? |
1565 | Have not events already proved it? |
1565 | Have not the Romans sworn never to obey a king? |
1565 | Have they detected thy noble purpose, and by death prevented their own shame?'' |
1565 | Have they slandered me to thee, Ione? |
1565 | Have they smiled on thee? |
1565 | Have you ever seen my wine- cellars, by- the- by?'' |
1565 | He paused a moment:''Why,''he muttered,''should I hesitate? |
1565 | He who had defied the grave for another-- what was the grave to him? |
1565 | He, too, was reprieved from the tiger by the hand of the gods; should he be left to a no less fatal death in the neighboring cell? |
1565 | Hear you that, Medon? |
1565 | Her heart beat: was it to be her proud destiny to preserve her idolized-- her adored? |
1565 | His friends-- the sister of his youth-- could he expect justice, though he might receive compassion, from them? |
1565 | His heart!--who, in our happier age, can even imagine its struggles-- its commotion? |
1565 | His vows of austerity and celibacy echoed in his ear; his thirst after holiness-- had it been quenched at so unhallowed a stream? |
1565 | How can I swear by Cybele then?'' |
1565 | How could he escape? |
1565 | How heard you this base slander?'' |
1565 | How is the fair Julia?'' |
1565 | How then came this evil? |
1565 | I am but a child, I am blind-- is not that punishment enough?'' |
1565 | I could not divine the cause?'' |
1565 | I have a pretty trade, else how could I live in these hard times? |
1565 | I have known him only within this last week or so: but why these questions?'' |
1565 | I have the Egyptian''s life in my power-- what will he value it at?'' |
1565 | I have thee-- eh?'' |
1565 | I may have erred-- but who amongst ye will not acknowledge the equity of self- preservation? |
1565 | I say, art thou ill or in pain? |
1565 | I spoke to her, though with a faltering voice--"Art thou not, too, Athenian?" |
1565 | I thought thou saidst a visitor?'' |
1565 | IV How its love can the Wind reveal? |
1565 | If I thus fulfilled my object with Apaecides, what was my design for Ione? |
1565 | In counting the girls that we kiss, eh? |
1565 | In the very hour when my mind could devise no clue to the goal of vengeance, have ye sent this fair fool for my guide?'' |
1565 | In this dilemma, what was to be done? |
1565 | In this state all wisdom consists necessarily in the solution of two questions:"What are we to believe? |
1565 | In wonder and sudden hope, Glaucus arose--''Nydia still? |
1565 | Ione here?'' |
1565 | Ione''s hair is dark, mine light; Ione''s eyes are-- what color, Ione? |
1565 | Ione, deign to see me; thou art gentle to strangers, wilt thou be less merciful to those of thine own land? |
1565 | Ione,''he continued rapidly,''dost thou not see that we are born for each other? |
1565 | Is Ione ill? |
1565 | Is he not handsome, Clodius?'' |
1565 | Is he so base a villain? |
1565 | Is it for a dream that thou wouldst wrong the innocent, and hazard thy sole chance of saving thy lover''s life?'' |
1565 | Is it not so?'' |
1565 | Is it the injustice of men that hath taught thee to deny the providence of the gods?'' |
1565 | Is it the voice of the Shades? |
1565 | Is not Burbo my kinsman Pansa''s client? |
1565 | Is not thy knowledge the very gossip theme of Pompeii?'' |
1565 | Is that fair? |
1565 | Is that like a gentleman and a gladiator? |
1565 | Is this a thing to worship?'' |
1565 | It was true that the request was remarkably silly; but what was that to him? |
1565 | It was you who taught me to disdain adulation: will you unteach your pupil?'' |
1565 | May I speak then as a friend, without reserve and without offence?'' |
1565 | May I withdraw?'' |
1565 | Mighty Hermes, have I ministered to thee cunningly?'' |
1565 | My brother''s blood is unavenged: who slew him? |
1565 | Nay, I will atone the insult-- I ask thy sister in marriage-- start not-- consider-- what is the alliance of yon holiday Greek compared to mine? |
1565 | Next, supposing that be true, shall I possess myself of that snug taberna among the Myropolia, which I have long had in my eye? |
1565 | Niger, how will you fight?'' |
1565 | No aperture? |
1565 | No vain chiromancer, no juggler of the market- place, but some more potent and mighty magician of India or of Egypt?'' |
1565 | No-- it is a dead man?'' |
1565 | None of my people have gone to the spectacle?'' |
1565 | Now, which way could they wend? |
1565 | Nydia sighed, and after a short pause, without answering the remark, said:''But do I weave too many roses in my wreath, Glaucus? |
1565 | Nydia, I have no sister-- wilt thou be one to me?'' |
1565 | O Nemesis, can I even sell, for the life of Glaucus, thy solemn trust? |
1565 | Of what peril?'' |
1565 | Oh, I am mad still?'' |
1565 | Oh, are they black? |
1565 | Oh, can these men love, my Clodius? |
1565 | Oh, is it in truth come to this? |
1565 | Oh, what can Rome give me equal to what I possess at Athens? |
1565 | Or loves not the sun? |
1565 | Or the cups that we empty at dinner? |
1565 | Our morality? |
1565 | Our religion? |
1565 | Pretty one, thou dost not grieve now?'' |
1565 | Seest thou these bracelets and this chain? |
1565 | Shall I be enabled to purchase my freedom next year? |
1565 | Shall justice be delayed now, that it may be frustrated hereafter? |
1565 | Shall the blood of Apaecides yet cry for vengeance? |
1565 | Shall the lion be cheated of his lawful prey? |
1565 | Shall the mirror live for ever, and the form itself be broken as the potter''s clay? |
1565 | Shall we be less free than your ancestors? |
1565 | Shall we within?'' |
1565 | She is rich, my friend; why dost thou not proffer thy suit to her?'' |
1565 | Sometimes she utters imprecations on the murderer-- then suddenly stops short-- then cries,"But why curse? |
1565 | Speak I frankly and as a friend?'' |
1565 | Still more, have I not the right to control-- to evade-- to scorn-- the fabrications of yet meaner intellects than my own?'' |
1565 | Tell me then, first, art thou unmarried, as thy dress betokens?'' |
1565 | Tell me, then, who is the fortunate virgin?'' |
1565 | The Neapolitan trembled; she thought of Glaucus, and sighed as well as trembled: were their destinies to be united? |
1565 | The Thessalian kissed the hand of Ione, and then said, with some embarrassment:''One favor, fair Ione-- may I dare to ask it?'' |
1565 | The dream lied not, then? |
1565 | Then she begins again, and again stops short, and mutters awfully to herself,"Yet if it were indeed he?"'' |
1565 | There is no pannier under thine arm; hast thou sold all thy flowers?'' |
1565 | There, Servilius, does it not become her?'' |
1565 | Think you that He needeth sacrifice from you: He who made heaven and earth?" |
1565 | Thinkest thou her chaste eyes are ripe for such scenes? |
1565 | Thou comprehendest, Nydia; thou art yet a child-- have I said more than thou canst understand?'' |
1565 | Thou knowest the long range of subterranean cellars beneath the basement-- that shelter, what shower can penetrate?'' |
1565 | Thou wouldst not have the bracelet yestermorn-- wilt thou take the bottle?'' |
1565 | To what question is it to vouchsafe a reply?'' |
1565 | Two years and a half-- three-- four? |
1565 | Unfeeling wretch!--do you not see my sorrows? |
1565 | WHITHER? |
1565 | WILL SHE ESCAPE AND SAVE THE ATHENIAN? |
1565 | Was it a sin to love her countryman? |
1565 | Was there no spot in which she could hide? |
1565 | We met first at the shrine of Pallas; shall we not meet before a softer and a more ancient altar? |
1565 | Weepest thou still, fond fool? |
1565 | Well, then, have not forgotten our conversation of to- day?'' |
1565 | Were I to embrace thy creed, and cast down my father''s gods, should I not be bribed by thy promise of heaven, or awed by thy threats of hell? |
1565 | Wert thou capable of affection? |
1565 | What ails my poor child?'' |
1565 | What are the meaner deities but imitators of his vices? |
1565 | What are those gods, even according to yourselves? |
1565 | What can the great Arbaces want with so poor a thing as I am?'' |
1565 | What chance hath he to claim them? |
1565 | What could he do? |
1565 | What does she do? |
1565 | What has Glaucus insinuated? |
1565 | What has the moon said to thee? |
1565 | What hast thou to reveal?'' |
1565 | What have I done? |
1565 | What if God be a monarch-- One-- Invisible-- Alone? |
1565 | What if these numerous, countless deities, whose altars fill the earth, be but evil demons, seeking to wean us from the true creed? |
1565 | What is it thou wouldst meditate? |
1565 | What is it you would say?'' |
1565 | What is that letter yonder on the table?'' |
1565 | What is the morality my religion teaches? |
1565 | What is to be done? |
1565 | What marvel that the earth heaved so fearfully last night, anxious to reject the atheist from her bosom?--An atheist, do I say? |
1565 | What more can he desire?'' |
1565 | What need had they of words to say they loved? |
1565 | What need to shrink, When the lambs alone can see us? |
1565 | What new dishes have you discovered?'' |
1565 | What say you, Lepidus?'' |
1565 | What say you, Lydon?'' |
1565 | What say you?'' |
1565 | What slave was ever destitute of cunning? |
1565 | What sweets dost thou discover in existence?'' |
1565 | What their actions, what their attributes? |
1565 | What was the travail of his own Alcmena''s son, whose altars now smoked with the incense of countless cities, but a toil for the human race? |
1565 | What would become of merchants, or jewellers either, if such notions were in fashion?'' |
1565 | What, Nydia, dost thou not like the bauble? |
1565 | What, is this the largest? |
1565 | What, then, with such destinies beyond the peril, shall I succumb to the peril? |
1565 | What, what can she say to thank thee, now thou art come at last?'' |
1565 | When do they suffer?'' |
1565 | When will Christ descend to protect his own?'' |
1565 | Where are all these good folks thronging?'' |
1565 | Where is the murderer? |
1565 | Wherefore should I dread?'' |
1565 | Whither fliest thou?'' |
1565 | Whither should they fly? |
1565 | Who are these?'' |
1565 | Who cares now-- who sees now-- whether thou art a priest or not? |
1565 | Who comes forth? |
1565 | Who could deny it? |
1565 | Who could sever the father from the son?'' |
1565 | Who could think of the babe in such an hour, but she who bore it? |
1565 | Who else will know they are in my possession?'' |
1565 | Who hath so fair a plea Our welcome Guest to be, As thou, whose solemn hall At last shall feast us all In the dim and dismal coast? |
1565 | Who in that hour spared one thought to his neighbor? |
1565 | Who shall disturb the brave, Or one leaf on their holy grave? |
1565 | Who will debase his name to save his life? |
1565 | Who will take the odds?'' |
1565 | Why did he not proclaim my guilt when I proclaimed that of Glaucus? |
1565 | Why do n''t they give him to the lion?'' |
1565 | Why hast thou waited till the eve of the Athenian''s condemnation before thou hast ventured to tell me that Arbaces is a murderer? |
1565 | Why not take refuge in my villa? |
1565 | Why should I suspect him? |
1565 | Why should the slavery that destroys you be considered the only method to preserve us? |
1565 | Why that term?'' |
1565 | Why thinkest thou so highly of yon dark Egyptian? |
1565 | Why, it was merrily done; when the old hag set her serpent at me, and Hecate stood by laughing from ear to ear-- what could I do? |
1565 | Why, my Apaecides, has not the Egyptian convinced thee of the necessity of our dwelling together in unity? |
1565 | Will he confess?--can he not be persuaded that in his delirium he struck the blow? |
1565 | Will he ever vouchsafe to be my friend?'' |
1565 | Will you sell her to me?'' |
1565 | Wilt thou not do for me this kindness?'' |
1565 | Wilt thou then come and behold thy doom, so that thou mayest enjoy it beforehand?'' |
1565 | Woman, how camest thou here, and wherefore?'' |
1565 | Would it please thee that Arbaces was her host?'' |
1565 | Yet how, when thou obtainest it, canst thou administer to him this potion?'' |
1565 | Yet if I could succeed-- if I could rescue and set him free-- wouldst thou be mine-- my bride?'' |
1565 | Yet this Ione is handsome, eh?'' |
1565 | Yet, hark you, Arbaces-- why so gloomy and unsocial? |
1565 | Yet, who will dare to touch a hair of his head?'' |
1565 | You are sure I shall not see the demon? |
1565 | You are sure of that?'' |
1565 | You are to we d Ione; is it not so?'' |
1565 | again, Lydon? |
1565 | and What are we to reject?" |
1565 | and how have you slept on your good fortune?'' |
1565 | and how is thy fair mistress?--recovered, I trust, from the effects of the storm?'' |
1565 | and not constantly with you? |
1565 | and was it not the fear that it occasioned thee that made thee weep?'' |
1565 | and what then shall I say? |
1565 | and what want you with him?'' |
1565 | and wherefore am I caged here? |
1565 | and why?'' |
1565 | and wouldst thou persuade me that I did the deed? |
1565 | answered Nydia, simply:''dost thou?'' |
1565 | answered the slave,''art thou silly enough to ask the question? |
1565 | are its rites commenced?'' |
1565 | are there gods? |
1565 | art thou offended?'' |
1565 | avails to thee now the discovery? |
1565 | can we believe it? |
1565 | canst thou tell me of Glaucus?'' |
1565 | continued the Christian, raising his voice:''can you believe in images of wood and stone? |
1565 | cried Arbaces, passionately;''why these mysterious words?--why dost thou couple my name with the thought of thy brother''s death?'' |
1565 | cried Calenus, almost weeping with joy,''canst thou thus forgive my injurious doubts of thy justice, thy generosity?'' |
1565 | cried Calenus, turning round to the people,''shall Isis be thus contemned? |
1565 | cried Glaucus:''are ye blind, then, even in the dark? |
1565 | cried Lydon,''art thou turned sphinx?'' |
1565 | cried the bystanders, with one accord;''is it even credible?'' |
1565 | cried the girl, wringing her hands;''and why am I thus imprisoned? |
1565 | cried the poor orphan, falling upon the couch;''thou whom the worm on thy path feared not-- what enemy couldst thou provoke? |
1565 | cried the widow Fulvia to the wife of Pansa, as they leaned down from their lofty bench,''do you see that gigantic gladiator? |
1565 | cried the young priest, striking his breast passionately,''from what regions shall my eyes open to the true Olympus, where thy gods really dwell? |
1565 | dark form, why risest thou like a cloud between me and mine? |
1565 | didst thou dream I should come to this?'' |
1565 | do all that are beautiful resemble each other? |
1565 | do you not hear the widow Fulvia clapping her hands? |
1565 | do you not know me? |
1565 | do you think he would prefer any of you to Niger?'' |
1565 | does the water bubble? |
1565 | doth she, too, as the credulous imagine-- doth she, too, learn the lore of the great stars? |
1565 | exclaimed Glaucus as he read the letter of Ione,''whitest robed messenger that ever passed between earth and heaven-- how, how shall I thank thee?'' |
1565 | exclaimed the goldsmith, in horror;''are there any of these wretches in Pompeii?'' |
1565 | gay as ever?'' |
1565 | girl, and how durst thou? |
1565 | groaned Clodius to himself;--or why can not one cog a gladiator?'' |
1565 | groaned the merchant, recovering with some difficulty his equilibrium;''have you no eyes? |
1565 | growled Niger, savagely:''many an honest gladiator has been compelled to a like combat by the emperor-- why not a wealthy murderer by the law?'' |
1565 | has thy heart found contentment under these priestly robes? |
1565 | hast thou looked at his teeth and fangs, and wilt thou call that a chance? |
1565 | hast thou, still yearning for the voice of God, heard it whisper comfort to thee from the oracles of Isis? |
1565 | have I not fought twenty years in the ring, and never lowered my arms once? |
1565 | have ye seen him?'' |
1565 | have you seen the new house of Fulvius, the dear poet?'' |
1565 | he asked of his nearest neighbor, a young artificer;''what now? |
1565 | he cried, in new alarm;''what spectre-- what dread larva, calls upon the lost Calenus?'' |
1565 | he cried, placing his hands before his eyes, as to shut out the grisly vision,''do I dream still?--Am I with the dead?'' |
1565 | he said, in a low voice,''what reverse is this? |
1565 | he whom they call the Atheist? |
1565 | his name?'' |
1565 | how are you? |
1565 | how can they quarrel so? |
1565 | how canst thou prove That bright love of thine? |
1565 | how could it be otherwise; who could be unkind to Glaucus?'' |
1565 | how shall I while the hours till then?'' |
1565 | how should I? |
1565 | how will ye meet the last day?'' |
1565 | is it indeed thou?'' |
1565 | is it not already destined to all things bright and fair? |
1565 | is it only to be among men that freedom and virtue are to be deemed united? |
1565 | is it you? |
1565 | is that you-- is that Glaucus?'' |
1565 | it is in our lives!--sinners we all have been; who now can accuse us of a crime? |
1565 | might he not be won by the bribe of freedom itself? |
1565 | muttered the disdainful,''Arbaces are ye less homicides than I am? |
1565 | no cavity? |
1565 | not more? |
1565 | of what color is the draught?'' |
1565 | or am I to think with Arbaces-- what?'' |
1565 | or do you think I have no feeling? |
1565 | or rather, in what do you suppose he has offended?'' |
1565 | or thinkest thou that we are dying of silence here, and only to be preserved, like the infant Jupiter, by a hullabaloo?'' |
1565 | or, if thou wilt speak, what hast thou heard of the state of Glaucus?'' |
1565 | pardon my interruption; and inform me, I pray you, which is the house of Sallust?'' |
1565 | repeated Ione, rising:''thine!--thy bride? |
1565 | replied Julia, timidly;''dost thou really think there is anything to dread? |
1565 | returned Sallust, in rather a melancholy tone,''what do we know more than this-- life is short-- beyond the grave all is dark? |
1565 | returned the hag, quickly;''and am I old, and hideous, and deathly now? |
1565 | said Arbaces,''can unrequited love be the lot of so fair a form, whose modelled proportions are visible even beneath the folds of thy graceful robe? |
1565 | said Burbo, rising reluctantly,''What turmoil is all this about a slave? |
1565 | said Fulvia, as the merchant''s daughter joined them;''have you seen the tiger yet?'' |
1565 | said Lepidus:''and with whom?'' |
1565 | said Olinthus, with bitter fervor; and art thou sad and weary, and wilt thou turn from the very springs that refresh and heal?'' |
1565 | said Pansa;''do you not know that Clodius is employed at the house of Diomed in blowing hard at the torch? |
1565 | said she, speaking quick and low;''art thou indeed Apaecides?'' |
1565 | said the grave praetor--''who is there?'' |
1565 | said the merchants:''what can be less equivocal than her prediction?'' |
1565 | said the slave in attendance, opening the door; art thou bit by a scorpion? |
1565 | said the slave, half aloud,''is it for things like this thou art to be butchered? |
1565 | saw you that? |
1565 | shall woman feel thus for man, and man feel less devotion to his God?'' |
1565 | she said, shrinking back;''it is only within the last two days that dull, deep light hath been visible-- what can it portend?'' |
1565 | shouted Arbaces, rising to his fullest height;''dare not tell me that-- dare not mock me-- it is impossible!--Whom hast thou seen-- whom known? |
1565 | shrieks? |
1565 | speak low-- bend near-- give me thy hand; knowest thou Arbaces? |
1565 | that love can defy custom, and be eternal? |
1565 | that thy soul was torn by a perpetual struggle? |
1565 | they can look upon his face-- who will be cruel to the Athenian!--Yet was not Love itself cruel to him?'' |
1565 | they have borne her off-- we will save her-- where is my stilus? |
1565 | think you the gods place their bliss-- eh?-- In playing the spy on a sinner? |
1565 | thinkest thou Arbaces will brook a rival such as this puny Greek? |
1565 | thou cheerest me: and wherefore?'' |
1565 | thou lookest pale-- thou hast kept late revels? |
1565 | thou mayest be overheard, and if other ears than mine had drunk those sounds-- why...''''Dost thou threaten?--what if the whole city had heard me?'' |
1565 | thy hand is cold-- hark yet!--hast thou taken the awful vow?'' |
1565 | to make up the deficiency in the course of this year? |
1565 | to the house of the Eastern stranger?'' |
1565 | torn from me in the first month of our nuptials,''shall I not see thee yet, and ere many days be past? |
1565 | was he interested in recruits to the sacred band? |
1565 | was she not nearly rich enough to purchase it? |
1565 | we know each other-- what are the gods to us?'' |
1565 | what are oaths to men like us?'' |
1565 | what can I do for thee?'' |
1565 | what danger threatens me?'' |
1565 | what dost thou here at this late hour? |
1565 | what fool is this? |
1565 | what hast thou been doing with my slave, brute?'' |
1565 | what have we done not to attend to this before? |
1565 | what is this but a mockery of the holiest part of man''s nature, which is faith? |
1565 | what is this?'' |
1565 | what mean you? |
1565 | what mean you?'' |
1565 | what message can he send?'' |
1565 | what news?'' |
1565 | what of her?'' |
1565 | what wickedness dost thou utter?'' |
1565 | when Nepimus is untried? |
1565 | when shall our toil be o''er? |
1565 | when shall we rest with thee? |
1565 | where?'' |
1565 | whither, can we direct ourselves through the gloom? |
1565 | whither? |
1565 | who can tell the tale in this hour? |
1565 | who could have guessed it?'' |
1565 | who could have supposed he was so dexterous or so lucky?'' |
1565 | who exchange clear thoughts for sullen days? |
1565 | who is here?'' |
1565 | who should shed his blood but one of those who feared his witness? |
1565 | who the murderer?'' |
1565 | who will belie himself to shame, and stand blackened in the eyes of love? |
1565 | whom hast thou here? |
1565 | why did he permit it-- nay, why invent, why perpetuate it? |
1565 | why had he left his far and sunny clime-- the olive- groves of his native hills-- the music of immemorial streams? |
1565 | why so rough?--tell me-- ugh-- ugh!--are the baths at Rome really so magnificent?'' |
1565 | why will she not admit me? |
1565 | wilt thou send me from thee?'' |
1565 | wouldst thou rob thy father?'' |
1565 | ye gods, yet Glaucus loves her?'' |
1565 | yet stay-- thou hast not spent all the moneys I gave thee for the marketing?'' |
