33754And how did you come to see the bag then?
33754And is it only the food you care for, Terry?
33754And leave me here?
33754And make ye ride in a carriage with glass sides, eh, mother?
33754And you were peeping, were you?
33754But where do you come in yourself? 33754 Did you see anything of the bag that has been stolen, Terry?"
33754Do you mean it, captain, or are you after foolin''me?
33754Do you think he''s fallen under the cars, and been killed?
33754Get on to the hat, will you?
33754I must only make the best of it for myself; but poor little Terry, who''s to look after him? 33754 If father did steal the money,"he said, keeping his eyes fixed on the drunken form,"where do you think he could have got it?"
33754It''s a big place this, is n''t it, Terry?
33754It''s fine, Terry, is n''t it?
33754Mr. Drummond''s not the man to forgit his word; and did n''t he say he''d do anything in the world for ye?
33754Now tell me, was that the last you saw of the bag? 33754 O captain,"he exclaimed, in a tone of deepest concern, plucking at his companion''s arm,"will you look at the poor creatures?
33754Oh, you want to get back to Halifax, do you?
33754Sure it''s a heap of money,he whispered;"and how could father get hold of so much?"
33754Sure, an''what do you mane by that?
33754Thank you very much, Terry,she said;"and you''ll think over what I''ve been saying to you, wo n''t you?"
33754Then you did see the bag before it was put in my desk?
33754Was that all you saw of it?
33754Well, then, how would you like to be taken into my office and taught to be a clerk?
33754What on earth possessed you to do that?
33754Whist, you young imp,he said in a deep whisper;"keep that to yourself, will you?
33754Why do n''t you answer me at once?
33754You''re not such a poor creature as that, are you?
33754And would his father strike him, as he had done more than once before when he had been away from home for a time?
33754Are you all safe?
33754But tell me this: did you mention to any person about having seen the bag?
33754But what''s that?
33754But who may you be, and where away?"
33754Can you come aboard at once?"
33754Did Mr. Drummond mean before it was put into the desk or after?
33754Did ye ever see the loike?"

33754How could he explain his position to this saucy- looking inquirer?
33754How could he have honestly come by it?
33754How is poor Terry to get along now?"
33754How much should he tell?
33754How would you like that?"
33754How would you like to go to a nice school?"
33754If old Mr. Drummond, whom he remembered seeing years before, had worked his way up so well, could not others do it also?
33754It is bad enough to be kilt in a row of your own raisin'', but what''s the sense of it when it''s not your fight at all?"
33754Just look at that, will you, captain?"
33754Must he betray his father, or had he the right to maintain silence?
33754Should he take them to the office in the morning, and tell the whole story?
33754The idea of informing upon his father seemed nothing short of horrible to him, and yet did not duty to his employer and to the truth demand it?
33754To get out of the difficulty he had only to disclaim any further knowledge, and who could gainsay him?
33754Try it again, will ye?
33754Was he going to turn him out?
33754We ca n''t walk all that way, can we?"

33754What''s the matter?"
33754Where are you yourself?"
33754Where have you been all this while?"
33754Who''s last?"
33754Who, then, could be the thief?
33754Wo n''t some one bring me water?"
33754Wo n''t we have a fine story to tell when we get back to Halifax?"
33754Wo n''t you do me the favour to come home with me to lunch?
33754Wo n''t you please be seated?"
33754Would n''t you like to try as they did?"
33754Would you like to come?"
33754are you all right?"
33754cried Terry, in keen alarm,"what will become of us now?
33754did ye ever see the like of that in your life before?"
33754he moaned, shaking his head dolefully;"and what''s to be done now?
33754is it yourself?"
33754laughed the captain, shaking his knife at him,"you know when you''re well off, do n''t you, now?"
33754she murmured, as though praying for strength; and then, after a moment''s pause, added in a hoarse whisper,"Could your father have stolen it, Terry?"

18681Well, then,Grandma suggested,"why do n''t we pull up stakes and leave?"
18681Well, why should n''t we?
18681What happened to Georgie?

4377When the last baby arrived, Billy had stood looking down at the small bundle and asked anxiously:"Are you goin''to have it fer a boy or a girl, ma?"
4377Where''s he at?"
4377Who is she?"
4377Why don''you set heah by de fiah an''bleach yer han''s fer de party to- might?"
4377Wiggs?"
4377You ai n''t gone an''sold it?"
4377You do n''t think you are dying do you?''
4377she exclaimed,"do you think I''d take an''go to a show, when Asia an''Australia ai n''t got a good shoe to their backs?"
4377what''s John Bagby a- bringing''in here?"
4377you ai n''t a- goin''?"
30368Am I?
30368Am_ I_ that man who lay upon the bed?
30368And how did little Tim behave?
30368And the Union workhouses?
30368And travelling all the time?
30368And what is that upon your cheek?
30368Are spirits''lives so short?
30368Are there no prisons?
30368Are there no prisons?
30368Are there no workhouses?
30368Are they still in operation?
30368Are you the Spirit, sir, whose coming was foretold to me?
30368But why?
30368Can you-- can you sit down?
30368Cold, is n''t it?
30368Could n''t I take''em all at once, and have it over, Jacob?
30368Do you know the Poulterer''s, in the next street but one, at the corner?
30368Dreadful apparition, why do you trouble me?
30368EH?
30368Even if I have grown so much wiser, what then? 30368 Have I ever sought release?"
30368Have never walked forth with the younger members of my family; meaning( for I am very young) my elder brothers born in these later years?
30368Have they no refuge or resource?
30368His blankets?
30368Home, little Fan?
30368How are you?
30368How are you?
30368How can I? 30368 How do you do?
30368I am in the presence of the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come?
30368I hope he did n''t die of anything catching? 30368 I want nothing from you; I ask nothing of you; why can not we be friends?"
30368If he wanted to keep''em after he was dead, a wicked old screw,pursued the woman,"why was n''t he natural in his lifetime?
30368In what, then?
30368Is it good,she said,"or bad?"
30368Is it?
30368Is that so, Spirit?
30368Is that the chance and hope you mentioned, Jacob?
30368Is there a peculiar flavour in what you sprinkle from your torch?
30368Knew what, my dear?
30368Long past?
30368Old Scratch has got his own at last, hey?
30368Or would you know,pursued the Ghost,"the weight and length of the strong coil you bear yourself?
30368Something, I think?
30368Tell me why?
30368The Treadmill and the Poor Law are in full vigour, then?
30368To whom will our debt be transferred?
30368Was I apprenticed here?
30368We are quite ruined?
30368What Idol has displaced you?
30368What do you call this?
30368What do you call wasting of it?
30368What do you mean by coming here at this time of day?
30368What do you want with me?
30368What evidence would you have of my reality, beyond that of your senses?
30368What has he done with his money?
30368What is it?
30368What is the matter?
30368What is the matter?
30368What place is this?
30368What right have you to be dismal? 30368 What then?"
30368Whatexclaimed the Ghost,"would you so soon put out, with worldly hands, the light I give?
30368What''s to- day, my fine fellow?
30368What''s to- day?
30368What, the one as big as me?
30368When did he die?
30368Where is he, my love?
30368Who are you?
30368Who was it?
30368Who, and what are you?
30368Who_ were_ you then?
30368Whose else''s do you think?
30368Why did you get married?
30368Why do you doubt your senses?
30368Why do you point away?
30368Why not?
30368Why to a poor one most?
30368Why, then, do n''t stand staring as if you was afraid, woman; who''s the wiser? 30368 Why, what was the matter with him?"
30368Why, where''s our Martha?
30368Why?
30368Would it apply to any kind of dinner on this day?
30368Would n''t you?
30368You are?
30368You do n''t mean to say you took''em down, rings and all, with him lying there?
30368You recollect the way?
30368You see this toothpick?
30368You seek to close these places on the Seventh Day?
30368You travel fast?
30368You wish to be anonymous?
30368You''ll want all day to- morrow, I suppose?
30368''Poor Robin Crusoe, where have you been, Robin Crusoe?''
30368Admiration was the universal sentiment, though some objected that the reply to"Is it a bear?"
30368Are these the shadows of the things that Will be, or are they shadows of the things that May be, only?"
30368Avarice, hard dealing, griping cares?
30368But he made a dash, and did it:"Is your master at home, my dear?"
30368But what did Scrooge care?
30368But why do spirits walk the earth, and why do they come to me?"
30368Dilber?"
30368Do you know whether they''ve sold the prize Turkey that was hanging up there?
30368Eh?"
30368Have I not?"
30368Have you had many brothers, Spirit?"
30368He thought, if this man could be raised up now, what would be his foremost thoughts?
30368How could it be otherwise?
30368If I was to stop half- a- crown for it, you''d think yourself ill used, I''ll be bound?"
30368If this had never been between us,"said the girl, looking mildly, but with steadiness, upon him;"tell me, would you seek me out and try to win me now?
30368Is it not?
30368Is its pattern strange to_ you_?"
30368Is that so much that he deserves this praise?"
30368Marley?"
30368Mr. Scrooge, are you serious?"
30368Nobody ever stopped him in the street to say, with gladsome looks,"My dear Scrooge, how are you?
30368Not the little prize Turkey: the big one?"
30368Not to sea?
30368Say that his power lies in words and looks; in things so slight and insignificant that it is impossible to add and count''em up: what then?
30368Scrooge knew he was dead?
30368Scrooge?"
30368Suppose we make up a party and volunteer?"
30368Tell me what man that was whom we saw lying dead?"
30368The Spirit did not tarry here, but bade Scrooge hold his robe, and passing on above the moor, sped whither?
30368The colour?
30368We''re not going to pick holes in each other''s coats, I suppose?"
30368What do_ you_ say, Topper?"
30368What good had it ever done to him?
30368What shall I put you down for?"
30368What then?
30368What was merry Christmas to Scrooge?
30368What''s the consequence?
30368Where had Scrooge heard these words?
30368Who suffers by his ill whims?
30368Who''s next?"
30368Who''s the worse for the loss of a few things like these?
30368Why did he not go on?
30368Why do you delight to torture me?"
30368Why give it as a reason for not coming now?"
30368Why show me this, if I am past all hope?"
30368Will you come and see me?"
30368Will you decide what men shall live, what men shall die?
30368Will you do me that favour?"
30368Will you let me in, Fred?"
30368Will you not speak to me?"
30368You went to- day then, Robert?"
30368You''re not a skaiter, I suppose?"
30368a world of fools as this?
30368are they yours?"
30368cried Fred,"who''s that?"
30368replied the Ghost,"do you believe in me or not?"
30368what reason have you to be merry?
30368what reason have you to be morose?
30368what right have you to be merry?
30368when will you come to see me?"
447Ah, what deh hell, Mag? 447 Ah, what deh hell?"

447An''dey''ve kicked yehs out?

447And the reader of sounds might have seen the reply go forth from the ragged people:"Where''s our soup?"
447Are yehs deaf?"
447Are yehs dere?"
447Come on, will yer?"
447Dat Johnson party on anudder tear?"
447Dear, dear, my cloud- compelling Pete, what are you coming to?"

447Do yeh wanna git me inteh trouble?"
447Do yehs want people teh get onto me?
447Don''che see?"
447Finally she asked in a low voice:"But where kin I go?"
447For how was he to know that there was a soul before him that needed saving?
447Give me a minute''s res'', ca n''t yehs?
447He turned about and bellowed at his wife:"Let the damned kid alone for a minute, will yeh, Mary?
447He''s the right kind an''we stay by him, do n''t we, girls?"
447Her life was a curse an''her days were black an''yeh''ll fergive yer bad girl?

447Is yer fader beatin''yer mudder, or yer mudder beatin''yer fader?"
447Let up, d''yeh hear?
447Nevertheless, he had, on a certain star- lit evening, said wonderingly and quite reverently:"Deh moon looks like hell, do n''t it?"
447Oh, yes, I will, wo n''t I?
447Play?
447Play?

447She stopped once and asked aloud a question of herself:"Who?"
447She thought of the collar and cuff manufactory and the eternal moan of the proprietor:"What een hell do you sink I pie fife dolla a week for?
447She''s her mudder''s purty darlin''yit, ain''she?
447Sure?
447That is a peculiar way the left corner of her mouth has of twitching, is n''t it?
447They invariably grinned and cried out:"Hello, Mary, you here again?"
447To her remarks, he replied,"It''s a fine evenin'', ai n''t it?"
447Two more beehs, d''yeh hear?"

447When women came in, and in the course of their conversation casually asked,"Where''s Maggie dese days?"
447Who?
447Why deh hell don''yeh come home earlier?
447Why do I come an''drin''whisk''here thish way?
447Why should I be concerned about it?"

447You are n''t goin''to leave me and go off with that duffer, are you?
40729(_ Makes sign to Bob, who extinguishes his candle and puts on his hat and enters._) You''ll want all day to morrow, I suppose?
40729And Martha warn''t as late last Christmas Day by half an hour?
40729Are there no work- houses?
40729B._ Mr. Scrooge?
40729B._ Oh, sir, how can we ever sufficiently manifest our gratitude for such unexpected generosity?
40729B._ To whom will our debt be transferred?
40729Bed curtains?
40729But why do spirits walk the earth, and why do they come to me?
40729But, however and whenever we part from one another, I am sure we shall none of us forget poor Tiny Tim, shall we?
40729C._ And how did little Tim behave?
40729C._ Knew what, my dear?
40729C._ What has ever got your precious father, then?
40729Cold, is n''t it?
40729Come, dine with us to- morrow?
40729Do you know whether they''ve sold the prize turkey that was hanging up there?
40729Do you remember this?
40729Eh?
40729Even if I have grown so much wiser, what then?
40729Have I not?
40729Have I the pleasure of addressing Mr. Scrooge, or Mr. Marley?
40729Have you had many brothers, Spirit?
40729I am not changed toward you,(_ She shakes her head._) Am I?
40729If I was to stop half- a- crown for it you''d think yourself ill- used, I''ll be bound?
40729If this had never been between us, tell me, would you seek me out and try to win me now?
40729Is it good or bad?
40729Is it not enough that you are one of those whose passions made this cap, and force me through whole trains of years to wear it low upon my brow?
40729Is its pattern strange to_ you_?
40729Is that so much that he deserves your praise?
40729Is that so, Spirit?
40729K._ Guess?
40729K._ How can I?
40729K._ Who was it?
40729Laughter and merriment to follow Scrooge''s speech.__ Spir._ Do you know it?
40729M._ And did you not sacrifice your love in releasing him?
40729M._ If he wanted to keep''em after he was dead, the wicked old Screw, why was n''t he natural in his life time?
40729M._ Is it a bear?
40729M._ Is it a pig?
40729M._ Whose else''s do you think?
40729M._ Why, then, do n''t stand staring as if you was afraid, woman; who''s the wiser?
40729M._ You wish to be anonymous?
40729May I make bold to enquire what business has brought you here?
40729My dear Mr. Scrooge, are you really serious?
40729Not the little prize turkey; the big one?
40729Ought we not demand an explanation?
40729Poor Robin Crusoe, where have you been, Robin Crusoe?
40729R._ What has he done with his money?
40729R._ When did he die?
40729S._ Why, what was the matter with him?
40729SCENE I.--_Scrooge''s chambers.__ Scrooge discovered upon his knees.__ Scro._ Can this be the Spirit of Christmas Future that I see approaching?
40729Say that his power lives in words and looks; in things so light and unsignificant that it is impossible to add and count''em up; what then?
40729Shall it be blind man''s buff?
40729So Old Scratch has got his own, at last, hey?
40729Spirit and Scrooge following, coming down front, and observing with interest all that passes.__ Bob._ Why, where''s our Martha?
40729Spirit, are they yours?
40729Suppose we have a game?
40729Suppose we make up a party and volunteer?
40729There, now guess?
40729Tiny Tim, what do you say to that?
40729Tut, do n''t I know(_ laughingly_), Mr. Scrooge?
40729We''re not going to pick holes in each other''s coats, I suppose?
40729Were there no poor houses to which its light would have conducted_ me_?
40729What do you mean by coming here?
40729What do you say to a game?
40729What do you want with me?
40729What do_ you_ say, Topper?
40729What news?
40729What odds, Mrs. Dilber?
40729What reason have you to be merry?
40729What reason have you to be morose?
40729What right have you to be dismal?
40729What right have you to be merry?
40729What say you to the charge?
40729What shall I do?
40729What shall I put you down for?
40729What then?
40729What''s the consequence?
40729Who suffers by his ill whims?
40729Who''s next?
40729Who''s the worse for the loss of a few things like these?
40729Why do you delight to torture me?
40729Why do you point away?
40729Why does he not go on?
40729Why give it as a reason for not coming now?
40729Why have shown me all that you have, if I am past all hope?
40729Why not?
40729Why?
40729Will you come and see me?
40729Will you do me the favor?
40729Will you let me in?
40729Will you not speak to me?
40729Would it apply to any kind of dinner on this day?
40729You do n''t mean that, I''m sure?
40729You see this tooth- pick?
40729You went to- day, then, Robert?
40729You''re not a skater, I suppose?
40729[_ Exeunt._]_ Scro._ Spirit, is there a peculiar flavor in what you sprinkle from your torch?
40729[_ Shakes chain and wrings his hands._]_ Scro._ You are fettered; tell me why?
40729_ Enter Mr. Barnes_, L.,_ passes across stage; Scrooge follows and stops him.__ Scro._ My dear sir(_ taking both, his hands_), how do you do?
40729_ Fred._ But why?
40729_ Fred._ I want nothing from you; I ask nothing of you; why can not we be friends?
40729_ Fred._ What is it?
40729_ Gho._ Man of the worldly mind, do you believe in me, or not?
40729_ Gho._ Slow?
40729_ Gho._ What evidence do you require of my reality beyond that of your senses?
40729_ Gho._ Why do you doubt your senses?
40729_ Gho._ You do n''t believe in me?
40729_ Joe._ His blankets?
40729_ Joe._ What do you call wasting of it?
40729_ Joe._ You do n''t mean to say you took''em down, rings and all, with Old Scrooge lying there?
40729_ Joe._(_ Opening bundle._) What do you call this?
40729_ Julia._ Is it a tiger?
40729_ Mrs B._ We are quite ruined?
40729_ Mrs M._ But, mother, did you really love him?
40729_ Sarah._ Is it a cat?
40729_ Sarah._ What is it?
40729_ Scro._ And the union work- houses-- are they still in operation?
40729_ Scro._ Are spirit''s lives so short?
40729_ Scro._ Are there no prisons?
40729_ Scro._ Can you-- can you sit down?
40729_ Scro._ Could n''t I take''em all at once, and have it over, Jacob?
40729_ Scro._ Do you know the poulterers in the next street but one, at the corner?
40729_ Scro._ Going to church, eh?
40729_ Scro._ Have they no refuge or resource?
40729_ Scro._ How long since you contracted the debt?
40729_ Scro._ Is it?
40729_ Scro._ Is that the chance and hope you mentioned, Jacob?
40729_ Scro._ Long past?
40729_ Scro._ Spirit, tell me if Tiny Tim will live?
40729_ Scro._ The tread- mill and the poor law are in full vigor, then?
40729_ Scro._ To- night?
40729_ Scro._ What else can I be when I live in such a world of fools as this?
40729_ Scro._ What right have you to be passing here to remind me that it is Christmas?
40729_ Scro._ What would you have me do?
40729_ Scro._ What''s to day my fine fellow?
40729_ Scro._ Where have I heard those words?
40729_ Scro._ Who are you?

40729_ Scro._ Why did you get married?
40729_ Scro._ Why to a poor one most?
40729_ Scro._ Why, James, how much do you owe me?
40729_ Scro._ You travel fast?
40729_ Spir._ Are there no prisons?
40729_ Spir._ Have never walked forthwith the younger members of my family, meaning-- for I am very young-- my elder brothers, born in these later years?
40729_ Spir._ What is the matter?
40729_ Spir._ What is the matter?
40729_ Spir._ You remember it?

40729_ Young S._ What idol has displaced you?
40729_ Young S._ What then?
40729_ Young S._ You think not?
40729dreadful apparition, why do you trouble me?
40729may I come in?
40729not coming, on Christmas Day?
40729who''s that?
40729would you so soon put out, with worldly hands, the light I give?
40729you boy in your Sunday clothes, what''s to- day?
19337Am I?
19337Am_ I_ that man who lay upon the bed?
19337And how did little Tim behave?
19337And the Union workhouses?
19337And travelling all the time?
19337And what is that upon your cheek?
19337And your brother, Tiny Tim? 19337 Are spirits''lives so short?"
19337Are there no prisons?
19337Are there no prisons?
19337Are there no workhouses?
19337Are they still in operation?
19337Are you the Spirit, sir, whose coming was foretold to me?
19337Bed- curtains?
19337But why?
19337Can you-- can you sit down?
19337Cold, is n''t it?
19337Could n''t I take''em all at once, and have it over, Jacob?
19337Do you know the Poulterer''s in the next street but one, at the corner?
19337Dreadful apparition, why do you trouble me?
19337EH?
19337Even if I have grown so much wiser, what then? 19337 Have I ever sought release?"
19337Have never walked forth with the younger members of my family; meaning( for I am very young) my elder brothers born in these later years?
19337Have they no refuge or resource?
19337His blankets?
19337Home, little Fan?
19337How are you?
19337How are you?
19337How can I? 19337 I am in the presence of the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come?"
19337I hope he did n''t die of anything catching? 19337 I want nothing from you; I ask nothing of you; why can not we be friends?"
19337If he wanted to keep''em after he was dead, a wicked old screw,pursued the woman,"why was n''t he natural in his lifetime?
19337In what, then?
19337Is it good,she said,"or bad?"
19337Is it?
19337Is that so, Spirit?
19337Is that the chance and hope you mentioned, Jacob?
19337Is there a peculiar flavour in what you sprinkle from your torch?
19337Is your master at home, my dear?
19337Knew what, my dear?
19337Long Past?
19337My dear Mr. Scrooge, are you serious?
19337My dear sir,said Scrooge, quickening his pace, and taking the old gentleman by both his hands,"how do you do?
19337Old Scratch has got his own at last, hey?
19337Or would you know,pursued the Ghost,"the weight and length of the strong coil you bear yourself?
19337Something, I think?
19337Tell me why?
19337The Treadmill and the Poor Law are in full vigour, then?
19337To whom will our debt be transferred?
19337Was I apprenticed here?
19337We are quite ruined?
19337What Idol has displaced you?
19337What do you call this?
19337What do you call wasting of it?
19337What do you mean by coming here at this time of day?
19337What do you want with me?
19337What evidence would you have of my reality beyond that of your own senses?
19337What has ever got your precious father, then?
19337What has he done with his money?
19337What is it?
19337What is the matter?
19337What is the matter?
19337What odds, then? 19337 What of that, my dear?"
19337What place is this?
19337What right have you to be dismal? 19337 What then?"
19337What''s to- day, my fine fellow?
19337What''s to- day?
19337When did he die?
19337Where is he, my love?
19337Who and what are you?
19337Who are you?
19337Who was it?
19337Who_ were_ you, then?
19337Whose else''s do you think?
19337Why did you get married?
19337Why do you doubt your senses?
19337Why do you point away?
19337Why not?
19337Why to a poor one most?
19337Why, what was the matter with him?
19337Why, where''s our Martha?
19337Why?
19337Would it apply to any kind of dinner on this day?
19337You do n''t mean that, I am sure?
19337You do n''t mean to say you took''em down, rings and all, with him lying there?
19337You recollect the way?
19337You see this toothpick?
19337You travel fast?
19337You wish to be anonymous?
19337You''ll want all day to- morrow, I suppose?
19337''Poor Robin Crusoe, where have you been, Robin Crusoe?''
19337Admiration was the universal sentiment, though some objected that the reply to"Is it a bear?"
19337And what''s his name, who was put down in his drawers, asleep, at the gate of Damascus; do n''t you see him?
19337Are these the shadows of the things that Will be, or are they shadows of the things that May be only?"
19337Assure me that I yet may change these shadows you have shown me by an altered life?"
19337Avarice, hard dealing, griping cares?
19337But what did Scrooge care?
19337But why do spirits walk the earth, and why do they come to me?"
19337Dilber?"
19337Do you know whether they''ve sold the prize Turkey that was hanging up there?--Not the little prize Turkey: the big one?"
19337Eh?"
19337Have I not?"
19337Have you had many brothers, Spirit?"
19337He thought, if this man could be raised up now, what would be his foremost thoughts?
19337How are you?
19337How could it be otherwise?
19337If I was to stop half- a- crown for it, you''d think yourself ill used, I''ll be bound?"
19337If this had never been between us,"said the girl, looking mildly, but with steadiness, upon him,"tell me, would you seek me out and try to win me now?
19337Is it a foot or a claw?"
19337Is it not enough that you are one of those whose passions made this cap, and force me through whole trains of years to wear it low upon my brow?"
19337Is it not?
19337Is its pattern strange to_ you_?"
19337Is that so much that he deserves this praise?"
19337Marley?"
19337Merciful Heaven, what is this?"
19337Nobody ever stopped him in the street to say, with gladsome looks,"My dear Scrooge, how are you?
19337Not a dead man, I suppose?"
19337Not to sea?
19337Say that his power lies in words and looks; in things so slight and insignificant that it is impossible to add and count''em up: what then?
19337Scrooge knew he was dead?
19337Scrooge?"
19337Suppose we make up a party, and volunteer?"
19337Tell me what man that was whom we saw lying dead?"
19337Thackeray wrote of it:"Who can listen to objections regarding such a book as this?
19337The Spirit did not tarry here, but bade Scrooge hold his robe, and, passing on above the moor, sped whither?
19337The colour?
19337Tut, do n''t I know?"
19337We''re not going to pick holes in each other''s coats, I suppose?"
19337Were there no poor homes to which its light would have conducted_ me_?"
19337What business had_ he_ to be married to the Princess?"
19337What do_ you_ say, Topper?"
19337What good had it ever done to him?
19337What reason have you to be merry?
19337What reason have you to be morose?
19337What right have you to be merry?
19337What shall I put you down for?"
19337What then?
19337What was merry Christmas to Scrooge?
19337What''s the consequence?
19337When will you come to see me?"
19337Where had Scrooge heard those words?
19337Who suffers by his ill whims?
19337Who''s next?"
19337Who''s the wiser?
19337Who''s the worse for the loss of a few things like these?
19337Why did he not go on?
19337Why did his cold eye glisten, and his heart leap up as they went past?
19337Why do you delight to torture me?"
19337Why give it as a reason for not coming now?"
19337Why show me this, if I am past all hope?"
19337Why was he rejoiced beyond all bounds to see them?
19337Will you come and see me?"
19337Will you decide what men shall live, what men shall die?
19337Will you do me that favour?"
19337Will you let me in, Fred?"
19337Will you not speak to me?"
19337You are not a skater, I suppose?"
19337You went to- day, then, Robert?"
19337[ Illustration:_"You recollect the way?"
19337are they yours?"
19337cried Fred,"who''s that?"
19337cried a cheerful voice._]"What else can I be,"returned the uncle,"when I live in such a world of fools as this?
19337exclaimed the Ghost,"would you so soon put out, with worldly hands, the light I give?
19337replied the Ghost,"do you believe in me or not?"
19337the one as big as me?"
35359''Hath everlasting life'', then, means that we have it now, do n''t it, doctor?
35359A new what?
35359Ai n''t He got der power der save everybody?
35359All right,said Jimmie,"if He kin save der chief of sinners, ca n''t He save Dave Beach?"

35359Do n''t that mean you?
35359Do yer mean she can board here?
35359Do you mean he''s goin''ter die?
35359Do you think she would come to live with us while she is sick? 35359 Do?
35359Does he come here much now, Mike?
35359Gee, where yer git der lid?
35359Git''em? 35359 God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever----""Who?"
35359God so loved the world----"Loved der what?
35359Guess I''s hard to wake up, was n''t I, Dave?
35359Had yer supper, Jim?
35359Has Bill Cook been down to the Mission?
35359Has he gone daffy?
35359Hello, Bill, yer up, are yer? 35359 How do you s''pose I know?"
35359How''s Dave Beach getting on?
35359How''s the old man, Jimmie?
35359I''ll do it, yer bet,said Jimmie,"''cause Jesus loves every one of us, do n''t he, Dave?"
35359If I should take you out of here and help you to get on your feet, would you like to make a try for a better life?
35359If she''ll do et, will yer let her?
35359If they''re tryin''to do good, why do n''t they come in and talk to us? 35359 Is Fred in jail now, Jimmie?"
35359Is dat booze?
35359Is dis all fer us, Dave? 35359 Is he sick?"

35359Now, what in the world do you want with a thing like that?
35359O Mr. Fagin, wo n''t you please give Fred a chance to stay sober? 35359 Oh, Jimmie, what are you doing in this awful place?"
35359Please, how many kin I have of''em, missus?

35359Well, what is she?
35359Well, what''s your name and where do you live?

35359Where in the world have you been, Jimmie?
35359Where is Jesus?
35359Where shall we go, Jimmie? 35359 Where was you?"
35359Where''d yer git''em?

35359Worser dan dis guy? 35359 Yer means Pollie Gainey, that lived over Fagin''s last year, do n''t yer?"
35359Yes, he''s up and he ai n''t had a drink ter- day nor las''night, have yer, Bill?
35359You can have anything I can give you, my boy; but what is it?
35359''Do yer know Floe?''
35359''Do you want a dollar''s worth of her?''
35359''Who is that?''
35359( Did you hear him say''it''?
35359After our marriage-- well, it''s the same old story; why should I tell it again?
35359Ai n''t He takin''care of us, and did n''t He send der Mission Guy ter help us?
35359Are yer hurted much?"
35359As they got back to the barn Dave looked at the slick, fat team that belonged to the young man and said,"Where did you get that pair of farm horses?
35359At last Hank ventured to say,"Are yer any good, Dave?
35359Baby and myself have had nothing to eat to- day and I can not stand this strain much longer; for our sake, wo n''t you give him a chance?"

35359Does he think we''re so good we do n''t need it?"
35359Does that mean you, doctor?"
35359Drunk agin?
35359Fagin?"
35359Go''long with me?"
35359Have you had a drink this morning?"
35359He ca n''t love no kid like me, kin he?"
35359He fell in love with her on the way to the barn and said to Dave,"How much do you want for her?"
35359He said he got saved, an''now they''re happy, and he works in der wholesale house and----""Who saved him?
35359He says it''s wrong; why do n''t he say somethin''ter the church members?
35359He stood lookin''at me and, pointin''his finger at me, says, says he,''What''s dis?''

35359I got''em, ai n''t I?
35359I have a good mother, but I''ll never meet her there like you sing about in the song, the way I''m goin''now; what will I do?"
35359If yer sure it''s not fer yer, how kin it be fer me?
35359Is Gene Dibble here?
35359Is it any wonder that Jimmie was interested when he heard Floe scream?
35359Is that nice house bad, an''what''s Floe doin''dere if it is?"
35359It''s a sure thing anyhow, and what difference does an hour or two make?
35359Jimmie looked up and said,"Der yer mean yer are goin''ter get saved?"
35359Kin I have her?"
35359Kin I see him?"
35359Looking with wide- open eyes, he inquired,"Be yer goin''ter call der bull?
35359Morton?"
35359Morton?"
35359Morton?"
35359Mr. Morton and Jimmie came along and to them he said,"Paper, Mister?"
35359No man starts out to be a drunkard; no girl starts out to be a harlot; why are there so many?
35359No, I guess I ai n''t ready ter die, but, oh, Jimmie, what made yer mention Freddie?
35359Not him; he''s drinkin''other kind er booze, eh, Bill?"
35359Old Dad Hamlin said to the Colonel,''What are you going to start, Colonel?''
35359Say, Doc, do n''t you ever expect to be a Christian?
35359Say, Mose, which you''d rather have, sweet potates and possum or watermelon an''''lasses?"

35359Seventy- two thousand girls enter upon a life of shame every year; again, allow the question, where do they come from?

35359The question so often asked to- day, Why are there no conversions in our church?

35359When did he get into this game?
35359When my eye caught sight of the motto there,''How long since you wrote Mother?''
35359When some one said they thought the singing was fine, Mrs. Kinney said,"Hum, you call that singin''?
35359Where der yer suppose she got that hat she''s wearin''?
35359Who said watahmelon?

20201A novel? 20201 Afterwards?
20201Ah, you feel it?--you feel it like that, Mary? 20201 Am I afflicting you, Mary?"
20201Am I horribly loquacious?
20201Am I overwhelming you? 20201 Am I?"
20201And afterwards, Nell?
20201And at last you have decided that the plenty of time is up?
20201And how do you feel?
20201And the little dog-- is he your own? 20201 And when did my Nelly become discontented?"
20201And you are very happy?
20201And you are very happy?
20201And, tell me now, do you teach them to be good daughters and wives and mothers?
20201Are you crying because I am going, my darling?
20201Are you sure, Bel? 20201 As for the dogs, did you intend to exclude them, too, from the fine new house?
20201But what is that,he asked,"up there at the top of the Tree?
20201But you were engaged to your cousin, were n''t you, when Godfrey left?
20201Ca n''t you smell the sap and the earth?
20201Can you find your way, Miss Gray?
20201Can you oblige me with a few slices of bacon?
20201Can you tell me, Miss Gray, how it is that I who have always seen you in London yet always think of you in fields and woods?
20201Dear Nell, what''s up?
20201Did you come together?
20201Do you know if the_ Sutlej_ has sailed?
20201Do you know, Uncle Denis, I believe that if my father had been a politician he would have been a Radical? 20201 Do you notice anything there, papa?"
20201Do you notice anything?
20201Do you propose to live with them, ma''am?
20201Do you suppose they understand each other, Nell?
20201Do you suppose they went away together, Jane?
20201Do you teach them their duties to their husbands and children, ma''am, may I ask?
20201Do you think Nelly will soon be back?
20201Do you think you will ever manage it, Bel?
20201Does she approve of the country trip?
20201For how long?

20201Have n''t you kept me waiting long enough, little girl?
20201Have n''t you waited long enough? 20201 Have the Working Women been more unsatisfactory than usual to- day?"
20201He has never had it before, has he?
20201How could you put me off till September? 20201 How d''ye do?"
20201How did you know I was in town? 20201 How do you do, Captain Langrishe?"
20201How is he?
20201How should I know? 20201 I beg your pardon, Miss Gray, do you happen to have any methylated spirit?"
20201I never took you about much, did I? 20201 I shall not be interfering with your work?"
20201I will, my lady,said Mrs. Gray;"and, my lady, would you please not to mention to Mr. Gray about the charwoman?
20201I wonder if he will take it from you?
20201I''ve been very patient, have n''t I? 20201 If she is at home, why should n''t she come back with me?
20201If we are going to discuss her, need she stay?
20201Is it Miss Gray, my lady?
20201Is it likely?
20201Is it not rather whenever you will? 20201 Is that you, papa?"
20201Is this your little dog, madam?
20201It is n''t possible you did n''t know? 20201 It is not a fine lady''s caprice?"
20201It_ is_ nine- thirty at Fenchurch Street, is n''t it?
20201Let you have her, Lady Anne? 20201 Mary?"
20201Mean it, my lad? 20201 Might I call at Sherwood Square for the lamb, do you think?"
20201My dear Belinda, all what time?
20201Nelly, how do I know that she will look at me?
20201No one been, Nell?
20201Not really, Nell?
20201Of whom?
20201Robin,she said suddenly,"what are you waiting for?"
20201Shall I stay the night?
20201She comes back to dinner?
20201She saved my Fifine? 20201 She wanted to put in her spies and satellites, did she, Nelly, my girl?
20201Supposing I were to say that you must go on now since you have gone so far, Nell?
20201Supposing they made a runaway match of it, ma''am, where should we be?
20201Sure, what would you do without me?
20201Then why is he going?
20201There is no fear of Lady Anne disappointing you?
20201These are yours?
20201Thinking of how oddly we in the world talk of the friends we go to visit? 20201 Waiting for?"
20201Was it good?
20201Well, Mary and I get on very well together-- don''t we, Mary?
20201Well, Nell, when is it to be?
20201Well, Nell,he said,"do you know what I came here in the mind to ask you?"
20201Well,said Lady Anne, turning round, and touching Walter Gray''s arm,"I have not made too bad a fairy godmother, have I, now?"
20201What are you going to do?
20201What are you thinking, child?
20201What can I say--he laughed awkwardly--"that I have not already said?
20201What did you do on Good Friday, after all?
20201What did you find to do?
20201What do you mean, Nell? 20201 What do you mean, Nell?"
20201What do you mean, my pet?
20201What do you suppose is going to become of us? 20201 What do you think of him, Mary?"
20201What do you think, Nell? 20201 What happened when you went to Tilbury?"
20201What has become of Mary?
20201What has clouded over my girl, the light of the house? 20201 What is it, Nell?"
20201What is it?
20201What is the matter, Nell?
20201What is wrong between you and Langrishe, Nell?
20201What time do you leave?
20201What time is that?
20201What would poor Gerald have said?
20201What would she do with a fellowship? 20201 What, Nell?
20201What, Nell?
20201What?
20201When is the next train?
20201When was your ladyship ever anything but indiscreet? 20201 Whenever I will?"
20201Where but here?
20201Where do I come in?
20201Where?
20201Who would have thought of seeing you? 20201 Why did I let him go?"
20201Why did n''t you tell me before?
20201Why do n''t you tell her to leave us alone, papa?
20201Why not have dinner with Mary in the garden?
20201Why not take a''bus?
20201Why not, O Cassandra?
20201Why not, indeed?
20201Why should you be anxious? 20201 Will you go to church?
20201Will you let me pay for my dinner? 20201 Will you let me say,"she said,"how sorry I am for the pain and trouble this must be to you?"
20201Wo n''t you sit down and tell me about it?
20201Wo n''t you sit down?
20201Yes, indeed; why not beauty?
20201Yes, was n''t it? 20201 Yes?"
20201You are glad to be free?
20201You are not angry with me?
20201You are quite sure he wants me: I mean soon?
20201You are sure that neither the Captain nor Miss Drummond left a message?
20201You did n''t let her get over- tired?
20201You do n''t mean to say, Nell, that Robin is in love with Miss Gray?
20201You have heard what has happened?
20201You have met my daughter, I think?
20201You know he is with the punitive expedition against the Wazees for the murder of Major Sayers and his companions? 20201 You like your quarters?"
20201You mean, because Nelly has-- has chucked me?
20201You never wanted that old frock, and you her ladyship''s companion? 20201 You really mean it, Sir Denis?"
20201You recognise it? 20201 You think it very odd of me?
20201You were engaged to your cousin, were you not, just as you are to- day?
20201You will let him know?
20201You wo n''t make my Mary accustomed to better things than I could give her and then send her back to be a drudge?
20201You''re not going to let Mary go without speaking to her?
20201--(meaning Captain Langrishe)--"What did he mean by making Nelly unhappy?"
20201A woman ran out of the lodge, screaming"Patsy, Patsy; where are you, Patsy?"
20201Ah, is this basket yours, too?"
20201Ah-- Sir Robin Drummond, how do you do?
20201All what time?"
20201Am I not their degenerate descendant?"
20201And Mary-- what is to become of Mary?"
20201And added,"Indeed, what can we do for sorrow except give the body a sedative?"
20201And how was he going to do it for all those weeks to come?
20201And now he asked himself what was he going to do for the next month or six weeks till his mother and Nelly came home?
20201And now, Nelly, when are you going to be well enough to come to see my mother?
20201And now, why did n''t you come to Sherwood Square?"
20201And then, with a change of tone:"Do you suppose I am going to let you go over there a free woman?"
20201And where am I to visit my patient?"
20201And who could it be, I ask you, unbeknownst to us that has watched over her from a babby?"
20201And you will keep house for me when I am gone?
20201And you-- on your way to it?
20201And you?"
20201Are you also privileged to know about the wonderful book?"
20201Besides, she lives in her basket, does n''t she?
20201Bournemouth?
20201But I thought you were going abroad?"
20201But am I to spend my Good Friday here, in this room?
20201But what was it Mrs. Rooke was saying?
20201But what, after all, could you know about girls?"
20201But, to be sure, why should she be?
20201By the way, do you know that Mrs. Morres is in town?"
20201By the way, she is not your daughter?"
20201By the way, what have you got for me to do on Friday?
20201Ca n''t you imagine the soft, delicious downpour of it?
20201Can not my girl have her frocks made where she likes?
20201Can you come to her?
20201Captain Langrishe, will you give this little packet to my Nelly?
20201Carruthers?"
20201Could I have the heart to be angry with you?"
20201Did you ever hear such stuff and nonsense?
20201Do n''t you wonder at me, Miss Gray?
20201Do you care so much as all that, Nelly?
20201Do you feel equal to walking ten miles?
20201Do you know that I am writing a book?"
20201Do you know that I was bidding this room and you and Bunny a long good- bye five minutes ago?
20201Do you know that my girl has looked for you day after day?"
20201Do you know why I did n''t read them?
20201Do you know, Mary, that though his mother and sister have taken me to their hearts, he has not written me a line?
20201Do you like Kerry cows?
20201Do you like puppies?
20201Do you remember the puppy you sent me-- the Clumber spaniel?
20201Do you think I am going to let that-- a lie, a mistake-- stand between us?
20201Do you think I have n''t known that you were in love with her all the time?
20201Do you think I ought not to have consented?"
20201Do you think I shall go off suddenly, or shall I have to lie, panting, like those poor creatures I''ve seen at the hospital, labouring for breath?
20201Do you think we might come?"
20201Father, why did you keep from me the fact that Captain Langrishe was fighting the Wazees?
20201Five years-- after all, what were five years?
20201Five- thirty?
20201For the matter of that, why do n''t you go away?
20201Gray?"
20201Had n''t the hideous official room that held her been heaven to him?--the singing of the naked gas- jets the music of the spheres?
20201Has anyone been making mischief?"
20201Have n''t you heard how she suffered?
20201Have n''t you noticed that she is pulled down to earth?
20201Have you any more?"
20201He is not ill, is he?"
20201He is too old for the Navy, but why should he not learn the seaman''s trade on the yacht?
20201How could I doubt that it was true?"
20201How could he have been so mad as to think of letting Mary go away with nothing settled between them?
20201How could she hate the girl who loved Bunny and had remembered to bring him from Paris a lamb that walked about by itself?
20201How could she, at this stage, contemplate the breaking of her engagement?
20201How could she?
20201How could you possibly have consented when the house could not get on without me?
20201How did you leave Hazels?"
20201How do you do, Lady Agatha?
20201How do you find her?"
20201How do you suppose things are getting on without you?"
20201How is it possible, with fifty shillings a week and eight children?
20201How long will you take to get ready?
20201How long would it be before the terrified pony shook herself free of the carriage altogether, or upset it on one of those mud- banks?
20201How long?
20201How many words did I dictate to you yesterday?"
20201How was he going to put the barrier between them that this plan to which he had given his consent would surely mean?
20201How was he to know when the worn- out heart would cease to perform its functions, and after what manner?
20201How was she going to listen to his name, to talk of him calmly?
20201How will you do without her?"
20201How would she look, with her tear- stained visage and the disorder of her appearance?
20201I daresay you wo n''t want to cut your visit short?"
20201I have a delusion, or do I really smell-- violets?"
20201I suppose he is, since you nearly gave your life for him?"
20201I wonder if she is marrying against her will?"
20201I wondher what they''d think of us at home?"
20201I''ve seen the light of battle in her eye-- haven''t you?"
20201If you and Mr. Jardine could dine, Colonel Brind?"
20201Is it a mild joke, Nell dear?"
20201Is she an upstart?
20201Is she set above her family?
20201Is she spoilt?
20201Is she to go bending her back and dimming her eyes while the lambs are at play in the fields and the primroses thick in the woods?"
20201Is the girl mad?"
20201It can do no harm to anybody, my having it-- may I keep it?"
20201It is n''t possible you did n''t know?
20201It is next month, is it not?"
20201It''s a horrible flood, is n''t it?"
20201May I keep it still?
20201May I smoke?"
20201Morres?"
20201Mrs. Langrishe?
20201Never seemed to want to gad about, did we?
20201Now that she is better, Sir Robin, why do n''t you go away?
20201Odd, is n''t it, Mary, how those thoroughly disagreeable women can make themselves feared?"
20201Only, where would Mary go to but home?
20201Poems?"
20201Shall I send up Fanny to call her?"
20201She had entered the room, but how was she to leave it?
20201She told me-- do you know what she told me?"
20201She was calling to her dog,"Fifine, Fifine, where can you be?"
20201Supposing that man were Ilbert?
20201Supposing-- Miss Gray, will you do me the honour of dining with me?"
20201Tell me, does Clotilde marry Mark, after all?"
20201Tell me: what is the mystery about your brother?
20201To ask her to come round and see Nell to- morrow, if the sister fails?
20201Was Caroline Ilbert mad?
20201Was Heaven empty that such things happened?
20201Was he going to refuse, as Mary had suggested?
20201Was his Nelly to suffer the torture of an engagement to a man who would presently be every hour in danger of a horrible death?
20201Was his little girl to be married out of hand to Robin Drummond without being given the chance to see the world and other men?
20201Was it possible that Langrishe had been playing fast- and- loose with his girl?
20201Was it possible that the mistress of so much magnificence could grudge a visitor''s coachman his tea?
20201Was it possible-- this was more incredible still-- that he did not return her innocent passion?
20201Was n''t I far- seeing to bring it?"
20201Was n''t he as yellow as the curry itself with chronic liver?
20201Was n''t it generous of him, because there is so little of it he can agree with?"
20201Was she, poor child, to suffer like Mrs. Sayers?
20201Was that how women showed their happy agitation when their lovers claimed them?
20201Was there a word with it, perhaps?
20201Was there any chance of his being there in time?
20201Was this young inquisitor his Nell?
20201We can put him up-- hey?"
20201We do n''t want her to be a spinster, hey?
20201Well, have you packed?"
20201Well, supposing it were so, what business had he to resent it?
20201Well, was not the breakdown of the train a sign that his best was not God''s best?
20201Were you very lonely?"
20201What are we to do?"
20201What bee in his bonnet?
20201What chill was in the boy''s blood?
20201What could I do only go on?
20201What could a man wish for sweeter and prettier beside his hearth than little Nelly?
20201What crook in his character?
20201What did it matter if the case was unlovely since it held her?
20201What did she mean?
20201What did you say was the train?
20201What do you mean by making my tenants discontented?
20201What do you propose to do?
20201What do you say now?"
20201What do you think of it, child?"
20201What do you think of that?"
20201What do you want to do for them, Miss Gray?"
20201What had come over his mother?
20201What had come to him?
20201What had she to do with the Ilberts, or they with her?
20201What has she been doing to herself?
20201What have you had in your mind?
20201What have you to give her but a life of drudgery under which she will break down-- die, perhaps?"
20201What is it, Nell?"
20201What new love could ever be as true and tender as his?
20201What on earth had become of Mary?
20201What should I do, Mary, if he never spoke?
20201What trouble could there possibly arise after a friendship of nine years?
20201What was it the General had heard about Langrishe?
20201What was it the creature was shouting?
20201What was the good of letting you know, Nell?
20201What were things coming to?
20201What were you waiting for?"
20201What will people say?
20201What will the Dowager say?
20201What would you do with my Mary?"
20201What''s going to become of the Court?"
20201What, after all, were five years?
20201What, do you say, child?
20201When are you going to fix a date for our marriage?"
20201When had the fellow shown any impatience?
20201When had they wanted anyone but each other?
20201When were you ever anything but good?"
20201Where could his Nelly find greater security for happiness than in the keeping of Gerald''s son?
20201Where do you come in?"
20201Where have you been, child?"
20201Where would you find pleasanter thin MacGeoghegan or McGroarty or Magillacuddy?
20201Who could believe that Wistaria Terrace was over the wall?"
20201Who could look upon such a scene and not praise the Designer?
20201Who else could it be?"
20201Who else was so likely to make mischief?
20201Who knows if I shall be here to- morrow?
20201Why are you marrying your cousin?
20201Why ca n''t we stay at home and let the territories be for their own people?"
20201Why did you?"
20201Why has he not been to see us?"
20201Why not beauty if you are inclined to flatter?"
20201Why should I, Mary, now when it is full summer, and the trees are dark?"
20201Why should he go?
20201Why should he, when the wedding was fixed for the twenty- third and everything ordered, even the bridesmaids''dresses and the wedding- cake?
20201Why should n''t Miss Nelly have a headache?
20201Why should n''t Robin and Nelly have the house just as it stood?
20201Why should n''t he?
20201Why should n''t her old father keep her for the years to come?
20201Why should not I?"
20201Why should one of those meddlesome fine ladies choose for the hour of her empty, unimportant visit his last hour with Mary Gray?
20201Why should she refuse Ilbert?
20201Why should they not all go abroad together and escape the east winds of spring?
20201Why should we have all those thousands of miles of frontiers to defend?
20201Why was it that Robin Drummond thought suddenly of the nightingale who leans his breast upon a thorn?
20201Why would n''t Miss Nelly have Quality ways?"
20201Why would n''t you be his coachman as well, Pat?
20201Why would we be callin''him''Old Blood and Thunder''if''twas to be like an image he was?
20201Why, that first day I saw her I said to myself in amazement,''Where were his eyes that he could have chosen you before her?''"
20201Why, then, why, in the name of Heaven, did you let him go?
20201Will you come to the Good Friday service at St. Hugh''s with me, Mary?"
20201Will you come?"
20201Will you look after my mother?"
20201Will you order tea for half- past four?
20201Will you tell your husband that I shall be glad to see him when he comes home this evening?"
20201Will your wife be at home to- morrow afternoon?
20201Wo n''t he come for the day?
20201Wo n''t you come inside and have some tea?
20201Would Sir Denis see him?
20201Would it not be like a disparagement of Nelly if he were to confess that he had never loved her?
20201Would you believe it that all the time she has been engaged to that gawky cousin of hers?"
20201Yet what would she do with us?
20201You are Dr. Carruthers, are you not?
20201You are not very busy?
20201You can spare him, ma''am?"
20201You can spare the time?"
20201You do n''t mean to say that Miss Gray could have had Ilbert?"
20201You do n''t mind waiting?"
20201You do n''t suppose, Mary, that he could be going to keep silence_ now_?"
20201You have had nothing to eat, have you?
20201You know that people will laugh at Robin?"
20201You took the big house at the corner of Magnolia Road a year ago?"
20201You will help me to persuade her?"
20201You will keep the places ready against our return?
20201You will oscillate between Hazels and town?
20201You will take care of the dogs for me?
20201You''ll give me the pleasure of your company?"
20201Your brother''s address is----""You are going to him?"
20201and who has made indiscretion adorable like you?"
20201and who is this young lady?"
20201he asked with playful tenderness,"that I should be anxious to shorten the time in which you are mine and not Robin Drummond''s?"
20201how was she to bear it?
20201like poor old Mrs. Mordaunt?
6334''King''s daughters?'' 6334 A burrd a- talkin''the likes o''thot?
6334A companion?
6334A gentleman? 6334 A party?
6334Adopt Molly?
6334Ah, Robare, how can we go back to those doll- childs at the hotel, with their so fine costumes, and so of- this- world- weary airs, now? 6334 Ah, Robare, my too impatient one, could I then help you?
6334Ah, indeed? 6334 Ah, well, Robare,"she said at last,"this is then your last evening here?"
6334Am I cold and proud?
6334An angel?
6334And are not you the party my brother told me of yesterday? 6334 And be they to thet little stuck- up Mis''Gurney''s naow?"
6334And does it for you have interest then?
6334And has n''t she spoken at all?
6334And have you a spare room, or two; do you ever take in strangers for a few days?
6334And nothing since?
6334And who may this wise and epigrammatic Sara be, I''d like to know?
6334And why to him especially, Miss Olmstead?
6334And you are her little girl?
6334Are there, then, no banks with drafts, or notes of post in Killamet?
6334Are you sure, Morton? 6334 Ashamed?
6334Aunt Felicie, do you hear that?
6334Aunt Felicie,he said abruptly,"what am I waiting for?"
6334Been gunning lately?
6334Besides, what business has that Glendwing, or whatever his high- falutin name may be, to mix himself up with our affairs? 6334 Blame him?
6334Brave, I brave?
6334Burnt money''s worse''n spilt milk, Sara; but I''ll tell you what, when the coddies are all gone, I''ll go lobster- catching, ca n''t I? 6334 But I''m not making fun, Miss Prue, indeed and indeedy I''m not, only she_ does!_""Well, like what, Molly?"
6334But come, Molly dear, where are those nice fried potatoes we''re to have for supper? 6334 But have you stopped to think?
6334But how could you think so? 6334 But how will you manage about baby?
6334But if you knew it included you-- Mr. Garth, do you believe in omens?
6334But no, it ees quite right, you zee? 6334 But the oldest is a rare one, and"--"Ze oldest?
6334But they''re going away soon, are they not?
6334But thou art cross, then, my poor boy? 6334 But what else is there for you here, safe at home?"
6334But what rooms have I?
6334But what shall I say?
6334But where does he live?
6334But you''ll come with me, Sara?
6334But, Morton, you did n''t tell Mrs. Norris, did you?
6334But, Mrs. Macon,she whispered once, in alarm,"are n''t you ordering more than I need of that silk?
6334But, dear Mrs. Macon, what shall I wear? 6334 But, mother, might n''t these things happen, do n''t they happen often, and nothing come of it?
6334But, my dear, could n''t you cut to better advantage by turning this a little? 6334 Cain''t we do nothin''?"
6334Child? 6334 Come, what are you sparkling over now?"
6334Could I get you to do an errand for me?
6334Could you really bear to see that little darling suffer, Morton? 6334 Crossin''the street-- where?
6334Daddy hopes there''ll be suthin''for him to do not quite so tough as facin''March sou''-westers; but then, who kin tell? 6334 Did he say so?
6334Did n''t I get rid of her slick, though? 6334 Did n''t you?"
6334Did they all wear crape tied round their arms? 6334 Did you answer it?"
6334Did you ever use one?
6334Did you have many engaged couples on the train?
6334Did, hey? 6334 Do n''t you long to hear what wish I made?"
6334Do n''t you think, friends, it is possible that seeing so many makes her worse? 6334 Do we live with the faculty?"
6334Do you ever hear from Cousin Jane nowadays?
6334Do you know, Molly, I shall be more than happy to be just her-- husband?
6334Do you mean Sara? 6334 Do you suffer?"
6334Do you tell me that is a window, in the middle of the chimney, or only some wonderful picture? 6334 Does she?"
6334Doing? 6334 Gittin''to be a big boy, ai n''t he?"
6334Go on, dear; what''s the use in trying to read when there''s a party going on? 6334 Good enough for four, Robert?
6334Good? 6334 H''m, I should think likely,"said the young man in a musing tone, then, as Morton turned a sharp corner,"What, that way?"
6334H''m; got any flannils onto him?
6334Have you any word to send to Aunt Felicie?
6334Have you been tattling? 6334 Have you lost something?"
6334Have you made acquaintance with Mrs. Searle and Bertha?
6334He d they railly been to my haouse?
6334He looks like a fine fellow; does he come here often?
6334He wants to go gunning with us in the morning, Uncle Adam, may he?
6334Here we are at-- now, what is that name, my lad?
6334Hey? 6334 Hey?
6334How can I that thing tell, my nephew? 6334 How could I leave him?"
6334How d''ye do, Sairay?
6334How did you know me?
6334How long did it take you?
6334How old are you, Molly?
6334How old''s Morton?
6334How''s your folks?
6334I always go to bed early, Mr. Glendenning, only when Sara wants me to sit up, like last night: you do n''t blame me for that, do you?
6334I am Sara Olmstead, a King''s daughter,touching the cross on her breast;"can I do anything for you?"
6334I have a Father; why do n''t I put it in his hands?
6334I have n''t any money of your father''s-- don''t you know? 6334 I know your name because you gave it when you first came out of your faint, and how could I help caring?
6334I presume so, and suck lobster- claws too, do n''t you? 6334 I suppose you are used to the management of boats; you can row or sail one?"
6334I thort as how ye mought be lonesome, so I come over an''brung my knittin''a while; you got some on hand tew, I s''pose?
6334I thought perhaps-- didn''t your stepmother have any relatives?
6334I was so busy, mother; were there many there?
6334I was thinking, ma''am, how does this froth get inside the cake?
6334I wo n''t?
6334I''d hate to do either, but I fear it will never be our home again, so why cling to it? 6334 I''ll tell you, Miss Plunkett, but you musn''t tell anybody, will you?"
6334I?
6334Indeed I do want a peep at her, Henry; she''s the fisher- girl with the family on her hands, that Madame Grandet told us about, is n''t she?
6334Is any life well lived, however humble, quite lost to the world? 6334 Is it Dolly Lee?"
6334Is it possible? 6334 Is it to- day you have an engagement with the dressmaker?"
6334Is it wrong to be indifferent to these petty things about me, and to love books better than people? 6334 Is n''t it right to say''seven and six_ are_ twelve?"
6334Is she coming to- morrow?
6334Is that all?
6334Is that its name?
6334Is that what ails them?
6334Is this Mrs. Maloney''s room?
6334It''s very kind of you all to care, and if you are sure she would not be annoyed--"Annoyed?
6334Jap''s wife?
6334Jasper?
6334Kill her? 6334 Kin ye shoot?"
6334Know anything about his family?
6334Let me take your hood and shawl, wo n''t you?
6334Master, eh?
6334May I always use it?
6334May I ask what you wrote about?
6334May I look at this, Miss Prue?
6334Molly, I''m_ so_ cold, ca n''t I have another blanket?
6334Molly, are you_ sure?_springing up in excitement.
6334Molly, when that babby squirms so, is it pins or worms?
6334Money? 6334 My who?"
6334No,answered Sara with a smile, remembering their conversation over it;"are you ready to make it now?"
6334No; has he? 6334 Not much longer; but is n''t it early to start, father?
6334Now, Sara Olmstead, how do you know that? 6334 Now, who cares for the Mary Jane?"
6334O father, the Nautilus? 6334 Of course I will; where''s the knife?"
6334Of what are you thinking?
6334Of what use to argue with a man so enamoured? 6334 Oh!--_that_?"
6334Oh, that?
6334Perhaps you may some day; who knows? 6334 Really, Miss Molly, I never thought-- in fact, I do n''t know of any, do I?
6334Really? 6334 Robert?"
6334Sara,he cried,"have you been to dinner?"
6334She could n''t have torn up the floor, could she?
6334She does, eh?
6334So?
6334Sounds like a death- wail, do n''t it?
6334Stay,he said,"what are you doing since school closed?
6334Such a mere girl, and yet talks like a wise- acre, eh? 6334 That is,"with a laugh,"you were twelve last month; now in ten years how old will you be?"
6334That seems odd enough, may n''t I ask your reasons?
6334That? 6334 The what?"
6334The what?
6334Then I am-- not dead?
6334Then we''d both be''bound,''mother, would n''t we?
6334Then what is to hinder?
6334Then will you tell her, Sara? 6334 Then you think she''s coming out of it all right?"
6334Then, are you crazy, child? 6334 This is the second time I''ve had to ask your pardon; will you make up, and be friends?
6334This? 6334 Up yet?"
6334Waal, he orter be; some boys o''twelve airns their own livin'', do n''t ye know?
6334Waal, what-- tame turkeys?
6334Waal, while I set; is the babby''s well as usual?
6334Wall,she said in her shrillest tone, as the door closed behind the girl,"you''ve come at last, hev you?
6334Was you studyin'', Sairay? 6334 We can boil it to- morrow, Sara, then I''ll have the claws to suck; where shall we put it so''t it wo n''t grip the baby?"
6334Well, I like being welcomed with open arms,laughed a manly voice outside;"but there is such a thing as too hearty a greeting, eh, Morton?"
6334Well, Molly, what is it?
6334Well, Molly?
6334Well, Morton, we''ll have to be pretty sure about things then, wo n''t we? 6334 Well, have n''t I a right to please myself?"
6334Well, of what?
6334Well, then, what makes them hide so behind those red curtains? 6334 Well, there''s one thing, Robert, I can write: you wo n''t object to that?"
6334Well, there''s something in that I''ll admit; but do you need a piece of my dress to recall my personality to your memory always, Betty? 6334 Well, to tell the truth,"bending forward confidentially,"is n''t it awfully dry and uninteresting?
6334Well, well,he said briskly, rubbing his hands before the freshly kindled blaze,"caught cold, has she?
6334Well, what do you s''pose Hester looks like?
6334Well, what of it? 6334 Well, what''s the difference?
6334Well, what, I''d like to know?
6334Well, why not? 6334 Whar''d ye get yer gun?"
6334What can I do?
6334What can it be?
6334What can the child want?
6334What does that insufferable puppy mean? 6334 What else was pa?"
6334What in the world were you doing?
6334What is it, dear? 6334 What is the book you read, my dear young lady, may I ask?"
6334What is there to_ do?_"Nothin'',sniffed Mrs. Updyke solemnly,"least- wise, not now.
6334What kind of one?
6334What makes you care?
6334What makes you go, Sara? 6334 What shall I do with all these bits and papers, anyhow?"
6334What will you do with this, if I''ll give it to you?
6334What would I have to pay for such rooms?
6334What''s that? 6334 What, Bertha?"
6334When you do n''t even know who he is? 6334 Where could it have been?"
6334Where did the rain overtake you, mother?
6334Where did you live, then, Miss Olmstead?
6334Who are you? 6334 Who are-- you?"
6334Who is it? 6334 Who with?"
6334Who''s drowned?
6334Why not, just for the summer? 6334 Why should she?"
6334Why, Jap, that you? 6334 Why, Jap, what are you doing there?"
6334Why, certainly,began Sara obliviously, when the guest interposed,--"How''ll seven and_ five_ do, Molly?
6334Why, child?
6334Why, what does he know of me?
6334Why, what is it?
6334Why, what is this?
6334Why, what''s that for, Morton?
6334Why, what''s that?
6334Will she stan''it, cap''n, think ee?
6334Wo n''t it do in the morning, Sara? 6334 Wo n''t we?
6334Wo n''t you be-- ashamed of me? 6334 Wo n''t you come in and rest a moment?
6334Wo n''t you come in and stay to supper, Jasper?
6334Would you take the baby?
6334Would you, Morton? 6334 Write her everything, and let her counsel you, will you?"
6334Ye did, hey? 6334 Ye did?
6334Yes, Morton?
6334Yes, Sara,was the reply,"I have come-- were you waiting for me?"
6334Yes, at three; why?
6334Yes, her''love and reverence;''ca n''t you imagine just how she said it, with that little Priscilla touch which is so quaintly charming?
6334Yes, indeed; did you ever read it? 6334 Yes, ma''am, I will; but you will keep me posted?"
6334Yes, sir; there''s Uncle Adam now, sitting on his bench smoking, and he looks good- natured; are n''t you glad?
6334Yes, that''s it,with entire oblivion of her sister''s accent;"and now I begin to see, when I''m twenty- two I wo n''t be a girl?"
6334Yes,recovering herself,"but I''m nearly well now-- how are they all in Killamet?"
6334Yes; Jasper always was forehanded, and he has laid by quite a snug little sum; then of course his father helps him; you never hear from him?
6334Yes; but I''ll be a woman, and that''s worse, is n''t it? 6334 Yes; but it wo n''t take so very long to finish my little capital, then what will I do if there is no work to be got?
6334You ask why?
6334You did n''t shoot it, Morton?
6334You liked my little by- way?
6334You look better,she remarked, as she returned the sick girl''s smile;"tell me, Bertha, was it from hunger that you fainted?
6334You said something about one,--''A Trip through Siberia,''was n''t it?
6334You spoke of leaving here, why not do so now, soon? 6334 You t''ink?
6334You''ll teach her, auntie?
6334You''ve had a new set of book- shelves put in, have n''t you? 6334 You, Sara?
6334You?
6334_ Ca n''t_ you think of another place, Molly?
6334_ Must_ I, auntie?
6334_ Who_ is it, Sara? 6334 ''What shall you wear?'' 6334 ''twould tear the old house all to pieces, would n''t it? 6334 ), and what do you suppose they talked about every minute? 6334 And I''m to have Mrs. Hoffstott''s pretty old china, with the blue forget- me- nots, and-- well, is n''t everybody kind, anyhow?
6334And Sara,"earnestly,"where would you find a better husband, a truer heart?
6334And did she hev on them queer furrin''presarves, with ginger an''spices in''em, or only home- made?"
6334And does not God know better than I where to put her?"
6334And have he not hear of this trouble?"
6334And he is thy brother, then?
6334And how does she appear, very provincial?"
6334And now, if all your objections have been properly overruled, will you give me the answer I desire?"
6334And were you going to sew those long seams by hand?"
6334And what was its quality to be?
6334And you, Mrs. Updyke, and Mrs. Shooter,-- were you going to look after the cooking, and so on?
6334And your name, does it mean something good also?"
6334Are n''t they becoming?"
6334Are they very, very poor, Robert?"
6334Are you content?"
6334Are you going that way?
6334Are you left so well off that you can afford even to think of this thing?
6334Are you sure you know more than your Maker?
6334Are you working at anything?"
6334Be thet some o''your college sass, naow?
6334Be you at them books agin?"
6334Beg pardong, then-- have I deesturb you?"
6334Bertha, have you a mother?"
6334But did n''t she tell you where she''d put it before she died?"
6334But do you live here quite alone, you and the babee?"
6334But how does it happen that Jasper is at home now?"
6334But nothing more was said till, bethinking herself, Sara asked,--"Could you eat anything now?"
6334But really, do you suppose any city family would be satisfied with this?"
6334But why do I think about it?
6334But, fortunately for his embarrassment, the domestic just then announced dinner, and Mrs. Macon said,--"Henry, will you give your arm to madame?
6334By the way, Sara, have you had to fight moths much?"
6334Can we ever do it again?
6334Can you go?
6334Can you not sit down once again while I continue?"
6334Cats, too, and dogs, did you say?
6334Could it be she only cared for Miss Prue because she was richer and better born than the others?
6334Could she greatly blame the child?
6334Did Mis''Norris use her rale chany that the cap''n brung over, or only the gold- banded?
6334Did either of you see Neddie when he picked it up?"
6334Did she really feel above the other girls, that they failed to interest her?
6334Did she to me send any special word?"
6334Did you ever see a mountain top that could be reached without a hard scramble, Sara?"
6334Did you ever think, Sara, that you might get up a circle of ten here?"
6334Did you miss him much, eh?"
6334Did you pilot my Uncle Leon up that steep place?"
6334Did you yourself find them?"
6334Do I look for defects rather than virtues, I wonder?
6334Do n''t hurry away, Professor Grandet; ca n''t you sit down a while, also?"
6334Do n''t you remember?"
6334Do n''t you see how careful we must be?
6334Do n''t you see, dear?"
6334Do n''t you think it is wonderful how those long- buried veins of rock are made to tell us God''s own plans and workings?
6334Do not all your ships return each Saturday?"
6334Do you call_ that_ good English, Morton?"
6334Do you know what I''d like to sing to- night?"
6334Do you know what the''King''s Daughters''are?"
6334Do you know"--solemnly--"it''s an awful thing to get so hungry?
6334Do you know, I can row-- yes, and swim-- as well as anybody, and I know all your old nooks, and"-- She paused suddenly, and Sara cried,--"All mine?
6334Do you know, I''m half tempted to write Professor Grandet what we have discovered?
6334Do you know, that whole affair has always seemed providential to me?
6334Do you observe over this way, to our right, a wide, wide arch with a statue above?
6334Do you remember whether she took her heavy shawl, Molly?"
6334Do you see the sunbonnet just above your head?
6334Do you suppose I knocked the conceit out of him with my talk of big game?"
6334Do you think it''s very bad to just look''round at the clock sometimes?
6334Do you think you can?"
6334Do you wonder I was sorry when I found you were n''t a real angel, and heaven was still far away?"
6334Do-- do you s''pose it''ll make her-- turn agin me?"
6334Does he treat us as I sometimes do baby-- corner us all up till there''s only one way to go, and so make us walk straight?
6334Does n''t that make you sisters?
6334Does the verb have a dishonest meaning here in Killamet, my boy?"
6334Finally Adam set down the gun with a contented air, and observed,--"Haow airly kin ye git up?"
6334Garth?"
6334Glendenning?"
6334Glendenning?"
6334Goin''to hev it fer dinner, I s''pose?"
6334Guess when you tell me a river runs west I ai n''t a- going to say it runs east, am I?
6334Had n''t you better get right to bed?"
6334Has anybody noticed the sunset to- night?"
6334Have I kept you too close?
6334Have n''t got a rope to give me a lift, have you?"
6334Have you a house?"
6334Have you any objections to taking a look at it, to see if it is safe?
6334Have you got the baby washed, and the braided rug over the broken board in the floor?"
6334He lifted his hat politely as he saw her, and, holding out the bonnet, said,--"I presume this is your property?"
6334He nodded to them and puffed away, saying between his whiffs,--"How d''ye do, stranger?
6334He''s a likely little chap, eh, Sairay?"
6334He''s too young, and has n''t had half schooling enough; and, Molly, are you certain he went there?"
6334Henry, you''re not having any of those horrid dinornis things brought to the house, are you?"
6334Here are the children; they must be cared for, and the baby above all,--what can one do when there''s a baby to look after?
6334His reference to Morton reminded her of their difference, which for a time she had forgotten, and she told him about it, adding,--"What can I do?"
6334How are you going to manage?"
6334How d''ye do?
6334How did you come to such want?"
6334How did you make it?
6334How do you like Bertha?"
6334How do you take your tea, please?"
6334How does she look?"
6334How long''ll it take to finish up thet air net, darter?"
6334How often must I tell you not to sing those coarse sailor songs?
6334I ca n''t understand,"with a little burst of confidence,"why you are all so good to a poor fisherman''s daughter like me?"
6334I can''t"--"Robert,"said his aunt severely,"how can I then read if you do thus make a jack- that- jumps of yourself?
6334I cried all the next night, for, do n''t you remember?
6334I do not know enough, only sometimes I find a specimen; I have a few inside, if you would care to see them?"
6334I have n''t eaten since-- what day is this?"
6334I say, what am I waiting for?
6334I suppose some is for Morton?"
6334I suppose some would say, ask her people to take him; but who is there?
6334I want to remember that always now, no matter how sorrowful we may be; will you help me, Morton?"
6334I was going to see you soon, to invite all three of you to dine with us that day; will you come?
6334I wonder if it''s wrong to feel so?
6334I would n''t dare lisp it before my husband, but is n''t there a good deal of-- of-- well, humbug, about it?"
6334I''m meat cook in a restaurant, and I must git there by four; it''s''most that now; can you stay?"
6334If it is to be as the wife of my Robare that she reaches it, have I any right to keep her back?"
6334If she should often be ill, who would care for them?
6334If there were only something I could do; but what can I?
6334If you it will zell, I s''all be mos''happy to buy, eh?"
6334Is Vanity Fair all that way?"
6334Is it not pretty?"
6334Is it possible we ever bent our backs to such a load?
6334Is it such a sin to walk with a student on the street?"
6334Is it then that you, too, are a geologist?"
6334Is n''t that a scheme?"
6334Is n''t that an idea?"
6334Is she then born to trouble, as the sparks do fly upward?
6334It was n''t the baby''s hair you thought of cutting, I hope?"
6334It was then to Killamet that you have been?
6334It would be dull here if''tweren''t for Polly, would n''t it?
6334It''s doubtless better thanks than I deserve, but I wo n''t refuse anything so good; and now what shall it be to- day, more Russia?"
6334Jasper has a schooner of his own now, did you know it?"
6334Jest below?"
6334Kin ye fix it, Sairay?"
6334Look at his innocent little face this minute; could you see it grow thin and pale for lack of the food he craves?"
6334Lungs sore?
6334May I not here sit on the step of the door by yourself?"
6334May I not know thy name also, my fair young mees?"
6334Might we look at your rooms?"
6334Miss Olmstead, are you ready?
6334Miss Prue knitted two or three rounds in silence, then remarked, with elaborate carelessness,--"You and Jasper have always been good friends?"
6334Molly and I ca n''t complain with such a man to look after us, can we?
6334Molly gave way to an agony of crying; Morton said brokenly,"Oh, what will we do?"
6334Molly, frightened at her sudden pallor, cried out,--"What is it, Sara?
6334Morton looked at the stranger askance; was he making fun of him?
6334Morton, why will you be so tantalizing?
6334Mrs. Deering, you''re so good with children, why not take the twins home with you for to- day?
6334Must I then run upon him the very first minute of my meeting you?"
6334No one but Miss Prue would thoroughly sympathize with, and stand by her, and what were she and Miss Prue against so many?
6334No; if she loves you, then what is it to matter if there may be a hundred of fine young men about her now?
6334Now tell me all the news,--who''s married, and to whom have the storks brought the blessed babies?"
6334Now, Sairay, I''m goin''over to my cousin Lizy''s a while, an''if baby-- why, he''s gone to sleep, ai n''t he?"
6334Now, answer me truly, of what earthly use is it to you?"
6334Now, have you any supper had?"
6334Now, what can I do for you?"
6334Oh,_ why_ ca n''t people mind their own affairs?"
6334One of the professors?"
6334Pass it''round, ca n''t you?
6334Rather better than Uncle Jabez''s old cabin on the Mary Jane, is n''t it?"
6334Really an article in the_ Science Made Popular?_ Well, Miss Olmstead, you are to be congratulated!"
6334Sara burst into one of her rare laughs, and Betty called out,--"What''s the fun, Sairay?
6334Sara gently wiped it away, thinking pitifully,"Where can her mother be?"
6334Sara''s eyes, bent upon him, discovered something in his expression which made her cry out,--"Morton, what have you been doing?"
6334Say, Sara, what does she make you think of?"
6334Say, mother,"tremulously,"will it-- kill her?"
6334She did not love him; did she dare to tell him that she did?
6334She turned; what now?
6334She''ll be awful cold to pay for it, wo n''t she, Sara?"
6334So you know the''Mermaid''s Castle,''and the pine walk, and all?"
6334Some friend of the Macons?"
6334Tell me one thing, is your life any happier, broader, better, amid these new surroundings?"
6334That old tub?
6334That you, up there?
6334The absence of any adults in the house suddenly struck the latter, and she asked,"Where is then the mother, Mees Sara?"
6334The ice is hardly broken up, is it?"
6334Then you know them?"
6334Then you will pass near the yacht, wo n''t you?
6334Then, after a long, silent gaze into the fire,--"God certainly knows all about it; he could help me if he would; I wonder why he does n''t?
6334There are a great many forks and spoons to manage, are n''t there?"
6334Twice she counted it; could it be possible?
6334Uncle Jabez, will you give him till to- morrow?"
6334Uncle''s on geology, and auntie on babies; do n''t you see?"
6334Waal, good- day; why do n''t ye come over ever?
6334Want to borrow a little, eh?
6334Want to buy?"
6334Was he here about a month ago?
6334Was it a sunstroke?"
6334Was it black silk, or green cashmere?
6334Was it him sent you?"
6334Was it pride that made her long for quiet, and her books, rather than for the society about her?
6334Was she taken ill on the street?"
6334Was that all''t ailded her-- jest hunger?"
6334Was_ he_ the answer to her repining thoughts?
6334We look like king''s daughters, do n''t we?"
6334We''d all remember you, of course, but there''s some, now"--"Silly Jane, for instance?
6334Well, I guess I could accommodate you; how much?"
6334What are they?"
6334What are you thinking?"
6334What can a girl do all alone in this great, wicked world?"
6334What did Miss Prue hev to say?"
6334What did they find to amuse them?
6334What did this departure portend?
6334What do I know about fancy cooking?"
6334What do you think of it?"
6334What for?"
6334What have I done?
6334What omens?"
6334What was it?"
6334What was she doing?
6334What was there against it?
6334What was to prevent Bertha''s experience from becoming her own, or possibly Molly''s, in case of evil fortune?
6334What would you with it then?
6334What''d she giv ye?"
6334What, indeed, have I to be proud of?"
6334What_ would_ my lonely life be without them?"
6334When would she ever again be so fortunately situated to entertain her pleasantly?
6334When, at the end of that time, there was a pause for breath, Sara said,--"And how about the students?"
6334Where am I?"
6334Where are you?"
6334Where does that doctor live, anyhow?"
6334Where you been, anyhow, Sairay?"
6334Where''s pa?"
6334Where''s uncle?"
6334Where''s your geography?
6334Who say child?"
6334Who, Sairay?
6334Why ca n''t you come now?
6334Why do n''t you give him some more of your rambles?"
6334Why do n''t you help me out of this, instead of tormenting me so?"
6334Why do n''t you praise these muffins, Morton?
6334Why do n''t you set your cap for him, and the corals?"
6334Why do n''t you try and help this beautiful plan, instead of hindering it?"
6334Why had he come?
6334Why should n''t he?
6334Why should n''t you be asked, I''d like to know?"
6334Why should she fret, or worry, or dread?
6334Why, are n''t you both daughters of the King?
6334Why, what''s baby got?
6334Why, who told you?
6334Why, you are through with yours, are n''t you?"
6334Why-- as Molly would say-- did n''t she"jump at the chance"?
6334Why?
6334Why?
6334Will you conduct me to this Diogenes of a gunner, and have him tell you, without a lantern, whether I am the man he is looking for, or no?"
6334Will you now obey your good_ tante_, or not?"
6334Wo n''t you join us?"
6334Would it break up their life- long friendship?
6334Would she lie to him?
6334Would you like to study Latin and French?"
6334Would you really burden yourself with my brother and sister?
6334You agin, Mort?
6334You are too loyal to forget easily; but still you would not go back, would you?"
6334You did not write to auntie?"
6334You do n''t know much about fishing with a jack- light, do you?
6334You have some means?"
6334You have then seen him?"
6334You said a spoonful every half hour?"
6334You say Mis''Jedge Peters from Weskisset was there;_ kain''t_ you tell what she wore?
6334You spoke of going West just now; do you go soon?"
6334You will let me give to him the orange?"
6334You would n''t make fun of good old Hester, would you?"
6334You''ll cook it for dinner, wo n''t you, Sara?"
6334You''ll find tea and bread in this cupboard, see?
6334You''ll look after father?
6334You''re going to make a fine man some day, did you know it?"
6334You''re warmer now?"
6334You-- you''re sure you know your mind?"
6334Your father is one of the best types of his class, Sara,--brave, honest, and true,--did you know it?"
6334_ I_ take boarders?
6334and do think if she had on a cap, kain''t you?"
6334and how many white horses did you see?"
6334and is she very sick?"
6334and may I have the table trimmed, and flowers all around?
6334and may I make the cake?
6334and was the sleeves coat, or mutton- leg?
6334but that is what you would then do, if our friends had not so kindly invite us here, Robare; are not your uncle and myself also in a boarding- house?"
6334but where will you find a stouter heart, or a steadier hand and eye, than belong to good old Reuben Olmstead?
6334child, of what are you thinking?
6334clasping her hands together,"may I have Mr. Hoffstott freeze some cream?"
6334could I create that love?
6334gasped Sara in desperation,"why-- why do n''t you speak?"
6334had you a private word to say?"
6334how can they?"
6334how shall I act?"
6334is it not?"
6334is this the place we''re bound for?"
6334is this the place?"
6334it''s you, sonny?
6334murmured the lady in her own language, then in English,"But what is it you speak,--the''long fish''?
6334must I?
6334she cried in the doorway,"what have you done to her?"
6334she cried,"is n''t it nice to find everything in such good condition?
6334she said eagerly,"it is Professor Grandet''s hand; what can he have sent me?"
6334she said;"is n''t that a fine baritone?
6334that reminds me, Sara, I want you to be sure to go to Betty''s quilting- bee; you will, wo n''t you?"
6334then aloud,"Bertha, how would the place of a companion suit you?"
6334then aloud,"If you can hold the cup, I''ll make you some more toast; shall I?"
6334was Sara''s approving comment;"and here, did n''t I promise you something?"
6334what is it?
6334what mean you, Leon?"
6334would you?"
6334you know how I love you-- I''ve always loved you, and what is the use in your working so when I''d give my very eyes to take care of you?
6334you''re on Russia, are n''t you?
6334your lungs?
2153''And why are we to be molested?'' 2153 A sub- poena-- what is that?"
2153A what?
2153Ahem!--What''s your name? 2153 All''s right now, young woman?"
2153All? 2153 And I''m to tell him that, am I, next time I see him?"
2153And Mary? 2153 And can you see pretty well with th''other?"
2153And did that kill him?
2153And did they never see her again?
2153And did you wait all that time in the street?
2153And do n''t you think he did it?
2153And do you know aught about them, too?
2153And do you think one sunk so low as I am has a home? 2153 And have I heard you aright?"
2153And he''ll prove that thing for my poor lad, will he? 2153 And he''s sailed?"
2153And how did he take it?
2153And in course thou plucked the pillow away? 2153 And is it thee that dares set foot in this house, after what has come to pass?
2153And is this the end of all my hopes and fears? 2153 And now, dear Mrs. Wilson, can you remember where he said he was going on Thursday night?
2153And pray, may I ask, which was the favoured lover? 2153 And that''s your last word?"
2153And what about the gun? 2153 And what did you put on?"
2153And what do you find so amusing, Sally?
2153And what does the doctor say?
2153And what good have they ever done me that I should like them?
2153And what was the substance of your conversation? 2153 And what''s Mary Barton to thee, that thou shouldst be running after her in that- a- way?"
2153And what''s made this change, Mary?
2153And where did you say you lived?
2153And why ca n''t you cherish her, even though she is happy?
2153And why shouldst thou know?
2153And yet, dear, if it would not put you out o''your way,--I would work hard to make it up to you;--but would not your grandfather be vexed?
2153And yet, how could it be managed otherwise? 2153 And you never spoke to him again?"
2153And you want Will Wilson to prove an_ alibi_--is that it?
2153And you''ve no clue to the one as is really guilty, if t''other is not?
2153Are not you well?
2153Are you aunt Hetty?
2153Ask, or not ask, what care I? 2153 At the same rate of wages as now?"
2153Ay, ay, and is it so?
2153Ay; donno ye know what wishing means? 2153 But how was your daughter when you got there?"
2153But what can be done? 2153 But what must I do?"
2153But what was the name of their boat?
2153But why did they turn you off, when the jury had said you were innocent?
2153But you do n''t think her fit to go to Liverpool?
2153But you have seen young Mr. Carson since your rejection of the prisoner?
2153But you,--what could they get but good from you? 2153 But--"said Mr. Duncombe, smiling,"you would like to be a married man before you go, I suppose; eh, Wilson?"
2153Ca n''t; and he is well, you say? 2153 Can you come to see her to- morrow?
2153Could not you and Will take mother home? 2153 D---- you, I ask you again where you''re bound to?
2153Davenport-- Davenport; who is the fellow? 2153 Dear Mary, is that you?"
2153Dear nurse, what is the matter?
2153Dearest Mary,--"What, Jem?
2153Did yo hear where the wife lived at last?
2153Did you ever hear tell,said he to Mary,"that I were in London once?"
2153Did you know Mr. Carson as now lies dead?
2153Did you know the chap?
2153Did you never see her again, Alice? 2153 Didst thou mark how poorly Jane Wilson looked?"
2153Do n''t you know them brats never goes to sleep till long past ten? 2153 Do n''t you think she''s happy, Margaret?"
2153Do you remember Esther, the sister of John Barton''s wife? 2153 Do you think Harry means any thing by his attention to her?"
2153Don ye think He''s th''masters''Father, too? 2153 Father, do you know George Wilson''s dead?"
2153Going-- art thou going to work this time o''day?
2153Han they ever seen a child o''their''n die for want o''food?
2153Han yo known this chap long?
2153Han[ 16] ye had no money fra th''town?
2153Has he left her much to go upon?
2153Has it been a dream then?
2153Have I done any thing to offend you?
2153Have I had no inward suffering to blanch these hairs? 2153 Have n''t I?
2153Have ye been to see his mother of late?
2153Have you heard any more of this horrid affair, Miss Barton?
2153Have you not heard that young Mr. Carson was murdered last night?
2153He would not listen to me; what can I do? 2153 Here we are, wife; didst thou think thou''d lost us?"
2153How can I best find her? 2153 How can I tell?"
2153How can he find it out when he''s at Halifax?
2153How can you know, wench? 2153 How did he die?
2153How did he die?
2153How do you think her?
2153How far does the pilot go with the ship?
2153How gone? 2153 How is he?"
2153How is she? 2153 How many hands had she?"
2153How shall you like being cross- examined, Mary?
2153How should I know?
2153How soon would he come back?
2153How?
2153Hurt? 2153 I wonder if one little lie would be a sin as things stand?
2153Is he not come back from the Isle of Man?
2153Is it a dream?
2153Is mamma ill?
2153Is no one gone for a ladder?
2153Is she so very bad?
2153Is that you, Mary Barton?
2153Is your father at home, Mary?
2153Is your grandfather a fortune- teller?
2153It is his hand- writing-- isn''t it?
2153It would n''t be better for thee to be scarce a bit, would it, and leave me to go and find out what''s up? 2153 It''s very sudden, is n''t it?"
2153Let me in, will you?
2153Margaret,said Mary, who had been closely observing her friend,"thou''rt very blind to- night, arn''t thou?
2153Mary, is Jem your brother, or your sweetheart, that you''re so set upon saving him?
2153Mary, they say silence gives consent; is it so?
2153Mary, what''s come o''er thee and Jem Wilson? 2153 Mary,"--beginning to speak again,--"did you ever hear what a poor creature I were when he married me?
2153May I make bold to ask if this gun belongs to your son?
2153No, wait a minute; it''s the teagle hoisting above your head I''m afraid of;--and who is it that''s to be tried?
2153No; where?
2153Now, how in the world can we help it? 2153 O Mary, canst thou wreck his peace, Wha for thy sake wad gladly die?
2153Oh Margaret, have ye heard this sad news about George Wilson?
2153Oh, father, what can I do for you? 2153 Oh, how much do you want?
2153Oh, tell us what you see?
2153Oh, why did n''t you come in for my pretty pink gingham?
2153Perhaps he''s your cousin, then? 2153 Please, sir, Davenport''s ill of the fever, and I''m come to know if you''ve got an Infirmary order for him?"
2153Pray what do you want, young woman?
2153Shall I take him to the lock- ups for assault, sir?
2153So the old governor is back again, eh? 2153 So thou''rt off to Glasgow, art thou?"
2153So, John, yo''re bound for London, are yo?
2153Tea is ready, is it?
2153Tell me, Margaret,said Mary, taking her apron down from her eyes, and looking at Margaret with eager anxiety,"what can I do to bring him back to me?
2153The mother of the prisoner at the bar?
2153The rich man dines, while the poor man pines, And eats his heart away;''They teach us lies,''he sternly cries,''Would_ brothers_ do as they?''
2153Then he''s come fra Halifax, is he?
2153Then what did you say when you had this final conversation with Mr. Carson? 2153 Then you are going?"
2153Then you give it up, do you? 2153 Then you mean to give her up, sir?
2153Then you think him guilty, sir?
2153Then you''ve heard nothing of Esther, poor lass?
2153There are no little boats about, and I thought I was to go in a little boat; those ships are never meant for short distances, are they?
2153There''s a change comed over him sin''yo left, is there not?
2153There''s no one else who can prove what you want at the trial to- morrow, is there?
2153Thou''st never left Mrs. Wilson alone wi''poor Alice?
2153Uncle who?
2153Was it a pretty place?
2153Was it afore Will had set off?
2153Was she any ways different in her manner?
2153Was she very bad?
2153Well, Jem, he''s gone at last, is he?
2153Well, John, how goes it with you?
2153Well, Wilson, and what do you want to- day, man?
2153Well, but what did your grandfather say?
2153Well, father, but did you see th''Queen?
2153Well, my fine fellow, and what have I to do with that? 2153 Well, neighbour,"said Wilson,"all that may be very true, but what I want to know now is about Esther-- when did you last hear of her?"
2153Were you aware that he knew of Mr. Henry Carson''s regard for you? 2153 What accident, father?"
2153What am I saying? 2153 What are you copying it for?"
2153What brought him to life at first?
2153What could we do, darling?
2153What did he say he wanted it for?
2153What did he say, sir, if I may be so bold as to ask?
2153What did you do?
2153What do they say?
2153What do you call a handsome reward?
2153What do you mean?
2153What do you want me to do, nurse? 2153 What do you want?"
2153What does he say?
2153What does he say?
2153What don ye want?
2153What is it about?
2153What is it? 2153 What is it?"
2153What is it?
2153What is the pilot- boat?
2153What is this? 2153 What made her think there were a letter?"
2153What mun I answer? 2153 What o''clock is that?"
2153What pier did she start from?
2153What things are these?
2153What was it like?
2153What was it?
2153What was she like?
2153What will mother say? 2153 What you say is very true, no doubt,"replied Mr. Carson;"but how would you bring it to bear upon the masters''conduct,--on my particular case?"
2153What''s the matter, my wench?
2153What''s the old fellow after?
2153Whatten''s all I can do, to what he''s done for me and mine? 2153 When are you going to sail?"
2153When are you going, father? 2153 When art starting?"
2153When did he-- when did they bring him home?
2153When does thy father start, Mary?
2153When may I go home? 2153 When?"
2153Where am I to go to?
2153Where are the engines?
2153Where are you bound to? 2153 Where had he been till that time o''night?"
2153Where have I been? 2153 Where have you hidden yourself?
2153Where is he? 2153 Where is he?"
2153Where is she?
2153Where is the young woman now?
2153Where was Jem? 2153 Where''s yo''r father?"
2153Who is she, Ben?
2153Who''s it all for, for if you told me I''ve forgotten?
2153Who''s there?
2153Why are we here?
2153Why did you let Jem Wilson go twice?
2153Why have you never been in all these many years?
2153Why need you go?
2153Why not?
2153Why, Sally, had you any idea she was going to fly out in this style?
2153Why, how old is he?
2153Why, if I''d come up by thee, who''d ha''caught the creature, I should like to know?
2153Why, what can you wear? 2153 Will and Margaret are married?"
2153Will she come back by hersel?
2153Will you come and see her, Job? 2153 Will you tell me?"
2153Wishing him?
2153With thee?
2153Wo n''t you?
2153Yes-- oh, yes-- can we not cross now?
2153You little thought when you were so ill you should live to have such a fine strapping son as I am, did you now?
2153You say no one crosses the threshold but has something sad to say; you do n''t mean that Margaret Jennings has any trouble?
2153You were in the room the whole time while Barton was speaking to me, I think?
2153You''re going to see mother?
2153You''ve never said where you come from?
2153You''ve not got a bit o''money by you, Barton?
2153Your father''s out I suppose?
2153''Is it hers?''
2153''Whatten business have yo to do that?''
21538, Back Garden Court, where there''s friends waiting for her?
2153A frozen lump of snow, lingering late in one of the gnarled tufts of the hedge?
2153A nasty, smoky hole, bean''t it?
2153Abhorring what they considered oppression in the masters, why did they oppress others?
2153After a minute or two, he asked,"Mary, art thou much bound to Manchester?
2153After you had given up going with him, I mean?
2153And now, where was Mary?
2153And she must do it; for was not she the sole depository of the terrible secret?
2153And the Valentine I sent you last February ten years?"
2153And what am I to do with Alice?
2153And who so quick as blind Margaret in noticing tones, and sighs, and even silence?
2153And who was he, the questioner, that he should dare so lightly to ask of her heart''s secrets?
2153And will you give me a certificate of her being unable to go, if the lawyer says we must have one?
2153And yet, why dread?
2153And( strange, stinging thought) could he be beloved by her, and so have caused her obstinate rejection of himself?
2153Any thing more, missis?"
2153Ar''n''t them lawyers impudent things?
2153Are all safe, Margaret?"
2153Are not you worn out, Helen?"
2153Are there boat- stands?"
2153Are we worshippers of Christ?
2153Are you bound to live there?"
2153Art thou going to faint?"
2153At last Sally Leadbitter asked Mary if she had heard the news?
2153At last she ventured to whisper,"Is there any chance for the other one, think you?"
2153At length he replied,"Where did you see Esther lately?
2153Because I''ve heard fine things of Canada; and our overlooker has a cousin in the foundry line there.--Thou knowest where Canada is, Mary?"
2153Besides you go when your father''s at home, without letting on[ 26] to him, and what harm would there be in going now?"
2153Besides, how could I hear o''a place there?
2153Besides, was it not enough to know that he was guilty of this terrible offence?
2153Bless me, Will, that''s sudden, is n''t it?"
2153But are we near the boats?
2153But by what train?"
2153But could no doctor be had?
2153But don ye know Ben Davenport as worked at Carsons''?
2153But have you taught them the science of consequences?
2153But how could I do that, Mary?
2153But if I should find her, how can I make her come with me?
2153But if you did think of marrying her, why( if I may be so bold as to ask) did you go and tell her you had no thought of doing otherwise by her?
2153But it was only the weakness of an instant; for were not the very minutes precious, for deliberation if not for action?
2153But the gentleman; why did he, with his range of choice among the ladies of the land, why did he stoop down to carry off the poor man''s darling?
2153But to- morrow,--would she not come in to- morrow?
2153But unable to wait another instant she called out herself,"Can you see the_ John Cropper_?
2153But what availed his sympathy?
2153But what would be Mr. Carson''s course?
2153But what''s up with you, Mary?
2153But where?
2153But who was he, that he should utter sympathy or consolation?
2153But will he thank me for it?
2153But yo are not Esther, are you?"
2153But you want to be told it again and again, do you?"
2153But you''ll ha''heard all this, Mary?"
2153But, how comed you by it?
2153But, who knows"( falling back into the old desponding tone)"if he really went?
2153Ca n''t you stop at home quiet with me?"
2153Can my prayers be heard?
2153Can you bear to hear it?
2153Can you help me, Margaret?"
2153Can you not guess?
2153Can you say there''s nought wrong in this?"
2153Could he have overheard her conversation with Sally Leadbitter?
2153Could his mother mar it?
2153Could it be--?
2153Could she break into it with her Martha- like cares?
2153Could this man be a lover of Mary''s?
2153Could you have thought it?
2153D''ye believe there''s such a thing as the Mermaidicus, master?"
2153D''ye think folk could be led astray by one who was every way bad?
2153Dearest Mrs. Wilson, may n''t I stay?"
2153Did I ever tell yo what th''Infirmary chap let me into, many a year agone?"
2153Did I ever tell you, Mary, what she said one day when she found me taking on about something?"
2153Did Jem really care for Molly Gibson?
2153Did he die easy?"
2153Did he go on horseback to town?
2153Did he make a fine end?"
2153Did not you hear where he''d been?
2153Did you ever tell the prisoner at the bar of Mr. Henry Carson''s attentions to you?
2153Did you ever try to excite his jealousy by boasting of a lover so far above you in station?"
2153Did you know he were in Halifax, Mary?"
2153Did you never go home while she was alive?"
2153Did you not see the_ John Cropper_ sail down the river this morning?
2153Did you see my clerk as you came up- stairs?
2153Did you tell him you found you preferred his rival?"
2153Did your father set him to look after you while he was away?
2153Do n''t you know they will stain, and make it shabby for ever?
2153Do n''t you understand me now?
2153Do you guess, Mary?"
2153Do you hear me, Jem?"
2153Do you know"The Oldham Weaver?"
2153Do you not believe that as long as hope remained I would be up and doing?
2153Do you see how you''ve hurt the little girl?
2153Do you think if I could help it, I would sit still with folded hands, content to mourn?
2153Do you?"
2153Does he not remind you of some of the busts of Jupiter?"
2153Does it haunt the minds of the rich as it does those of the poor?
2153Dost thou know where Jem is, all through thee?"
2153Dost thou know where he is, thou bad hussy, with thy great blue eyes and yellow hair, to lead men on to ruin?
2153Errands of mercy-- errands of sin-- did you ever think where all the thousands of people you daily meet are bound?
2153Flesh and blood gets wearied wi''so much work; why should factory hands work so much longer nor other trades?
2153For sure, there''s no more mischief up, is there?"
2153For, brothers, is not them the things we ask for when we ask for more wage?
2153Had he given her up?
2153Had he not promised with such earnest purpose of soul, as makes words more solemn than oaths, to save Mary from becoming such as Esther?
2153Had they not loved her?--and who loved her now?
2153Han they done as they''d be done by for us?"
2153Han ye heard o''his good luck?"
2153Han ye heard where I was last night?"
2153Harry Carson''s mother had been a factory girl; so, after all, what was the great reason for doubting his intentions towards Mary?
2153Harry?"
2153Hast thought of that?"
2153Have not I toiled and struggled even to these years with hopes in my heart that all centered in my boy?
2153Have you got it down, Mary?"
2153Have you had a long walk?
2153Have you much to do?"
2153Have you sent for a doctor?
2153Have you sent for a doctor?"
2153He had evidently got possession of some gun( was it really Jem''s; was he an accomplice?
2153He interrupted his earnest gaze into her face, with the exclamation--"And who can yo be to know Mary Barton, or to know that she''s ought to me?"
2153He kissed her again and again, but looking round as if searching for some one he could not find, the first words he uttered were still,"Where is she?"
2153He loved me above a bit; and am I to leave him now to dree all the cruel slander they''ll put upon him?
2153He saw the short- sightedness of falsehood; but what could he do now?
2153He was out when Alice was taken ill; and he did not come home till early in the morning, or, to speak true, in the night: did he?"
2153He''ll bear witness that Jem were with him?
2153His raven hair( his mother''s pride, and so often fondly caressed by her fingers), was that too to have its influence against him?
2153How can I tell what is right?
2153How comes it they''re rich, and we''re poor?
2153How could I hold up if thou wert gone, Jem?
2153How could I sleep till I knowed if Will were found?"
2153How could I?"
2153How could she, the abandoned and polluted outcast, ever have dared to hope for a blessing, even on her efforts to do good?
2153How did you hear, mother?"
2153How did you like standing witness?
2153How do you know the wild romances of their lives; the trials, the temptations they are even now enduring, resisting, sinking under?
2153How is Miss Simmonds?
2153How long is it ago?"
2153How shall I clear him to strangers, when those who know him, and ought to love him, are so set against his being innocent?"
2153How shall I save her?
2153How shall I save her?
2153How?
2153However, I''ve just been going over the principal points again to him; may be you saw us?
2153I asked him, and he has got the Rose,_ sans reproche_; but do you know, little Miss Extravagance, a very small one is half- a- guinea?"
2153I could live it down if I stayed in England; but then what would not Mary have to bear?
2153I did not speak of them, but were they not there?
2153I forget what your name is?"
2153I know all your clothes as well as I do my own, and what is there you can wear?
2153I mun know where to find you-- where do you live?"
2153I must see him,--it''s a matter of life and death: he can save the innocent from being hanged,--he can not be gone,--how gone?"
2153I named your name with the view of unlocking his confidence, but--""What did he say?"
2153I seemed hard and cold; and so I might be to others, but not to him!--who shall ever imagine the love I bore to him?
2153I''m speaking as if she cared for me, and would marry me; d''ye think she does care at all for me, Mary?"
2153I''ve caught you, have I?"
2153If he presented himself before her while this idea of his character was uppermost, who might tell the consequence?
2153If it please God she recovers, will you take her to you as you would a daughter?"
2153If it was n''t Jem, who was it?"
2153If you come home to- morrow night, and Will''s there, perhaps I need not step up?"
2153In the wilderness of a large town, where to meet with an individual of so little value or note to any?
2153Is Harry come in?
2153Is Jem proved innocent?
2153Is Margaret very well?"
2153Is Miss Alice Wilson alive, then; will that please you?
2153Is he bound for th''shooting gallery?
2153Is he ill?
2153Is he thrown?
2153Is he_ dead_, did you say?
2153Is it not enough to have robbed me of my boy with thy arts and thy profligacy, but thou must come here to crow over me-- me-- his mother?
2153Is it wi''crying?
2153Is n''t it called an_ alibi_, the getting folk to swear to where he really was at the time?"
2153Is she here?
2153Is she there yet?"
2153Is th''canting old maid as was his sister alive yet?"
2153It is true they who thus purchase it pay dearly for their oblivion; but can you expect the uneducated to count the cost of their whistle?
2153It keeps him silent, to be sure; but so long as I see him earnest, and pleased, and eager, what does that matter?
2153It was but too clear, some way or another, he had learnt all; and what would he think of her?
2153It''s Jem, is it?
2153It''s very sad, is n''t it, father?"
2153Jacob Butterworth had said a good word for me, and they asked me would I sing?
2153Jem?"
2153Job, and wo n''t you ever believe me when I tell you he''s innocent?
2153Jones''s?"
2153Just ask''em that, Barton, will ye?"
2153Look, who is this letter from?"
2153Lord, what is it to Life?
2153Margaret did not know he was at home: had he stolen like a thief by dead of night into his own dwelling?
2153Margaret had the great charm of possessing good strong common sense, and do you not perceive how involuntarily this is valued?
2153Margaret, do you think he can be saved; do you think they can find him guilty if Will comes forward as a witness?
2153Margaret, you can tell me; you were there when he came back that night; were you not?
2153Mary, ar''n''t you ready?"
2153Must he be told of Mary''s state?
2153My dears, poor Mr. Harry is brought home--""Brought home--_brought_ home-- how?"
2153My hairs are gray with suffering, and yours with years--""And have I had no suffering?"
2153Not doomed by us to this appointed pain-- God made us rich and poor-- of what do these complain?"
2153Not your old plaid shawl, I do hope?
2153Now did n''t you, Mary?
2153Now suppose I know-- I knew he was innocent,--it''s only supposing, Job,--what must I do to prove it?
2153Now what''s he after next?
2153Now, would you not, dear mother?"
2153O awful is it in the hushed mid night, While gazing on the pallid, moveless form, To start and ask,''Is it now sleep-- or death?''"
2153Oh, Jem, is it true?
2153Oh, sir, may not I go down?"
2153Oh, what shall I do to save Mary''s child?
2153Oh, why did she ever listen to the tempter?
2153Once before she refused, and said she could not break off her drinking ways, come what might?"
2153Or canst thou break that heart of his, Whase only faut is loving thee?"
2153Or why did not Job go?
2153Papa will give it me, wo n''t you, dear father?
2153Poor soul, she''s gone dateless, I think, with care, and watching, and over- much trouble; and who can wonder?
2153Sailed?"
2153Says I,''Good woman, may we rest us a bit?''
2153Shall toil and famine, hopeless, still be borne?
2153Shall you, or I, receive such blessing?
2153She added, hesitatingly,"Is any one else at Job''s?"
2153She must speak; to that she was soul- compelled; but to whom?
2153She to judge him?
2153She wo n''t hearken to warning, or heed it more than I did; and who loves her well enough to watch over her as she should be watched?
2153Should I write to him?"
2153Should he shrink from the duties of life, into the cowardliness of death?
2153So I went out into the street, one January night-- Do you think God will punish me for that?"
2153So giving Jennings a sharp nudge( for he''d fallen asleep), I says,''Missis, what''s to pay?''
2153So he''s ill, eh?"
2153So says I,''And, missis, what should we gie you for the babby''s bread and milk?''
2153So she wisely paused in their delivery, and said in a more sympathetic tone than she had heretofore used,"Do tell me, Mary, what''s fretting you so?
2153So why ca n''t he make a law again poor folks''wives working in factories?"
2153So, will you give it to her, Mary, when I''m gone?
2153Some of the masters were rather affronted at such a ragged detachment coming between the wind and their nobility; but what cared they?
2153Speak out, man, ca n''t ye?
2153Speak, child, ca n''t you?"
2153Stay, Mary, has your mother got any nettles for spring drink?
2153Still, where to find her again?
2153Th''Union is paying for your father, I suppose?"
2153The clerk was gabbling over the indictment, and in a minute or two there was the accustomed question,"How say you, Guilty, or Not Guilty?"
2153The cloud- shadows which give beauty to Chat- Moss, the picturesque old houses of Newton, what were they to Mary, whose heart was full of many things?
2153The first question sobbed out by his choking voice, oppressed with emotion, was,"Where is she?"
2153The gentleman she had just beheld would see and question Jem in a few hours, and what would be the result?
2153The morning of the day on which it was to take place he had lain late in bed, for what was the use of getting up?
2153The_ John Cropper_?
2153Then a shrill cry was heard, asking"Is the oud man alive, and likely to do?"
2153Then may I trouble you to ask him to step up immediately?"
2153Then what in the name of goodness made him shoot Mr. Harry?
2153Then you wo n''t help me, Job, to prove him innocent?
2153Then, should she apply to Jem himself?
2153There stood-- could it be?
2153They get interest on their capital somehow a''this time, while ourn is lying idle, else how could they all live as they do?
2153Thou''lt may be like to see her?"
2153Thou''rt taking it in, Mary; thou''rt to call on him in Liverpool at two, Monday afternoon?"
2153Thou''st found her at Mrs. Jones''s, Job?"
2153To Glasgow, did you say?
2153To his surprise the dark, sturdy- looking artisan stopped him by saying respectfully,"May I speak a word wi''you, sir?"
2153To whom could she speak and ask for aid?
2153To whom shall the outcast prostitute tell her tale?
2153True, his vengeance was sanctioned by law, but was it the less revenge?
2153Ungracious enough on the whole, was it not, Mr. Legh?
2153Was he afraid you''d be on again?"
2153Was it not she who had led him to the pit into which he had fallen?
2153Was it then so; that Mary was a flirt, the giddy creature of whom he spoke?
2153Was it you, then, that killed my boy?
2153Was na it a good thing they did na keep me from Liverpool?
2153Was she not lonely enough to welcome the spirits of the dead, who had loved her while here?
2153Was she to blame him?
2153We said,''Where are they?''
2153We spoke up again[ 33] it; but every body said it were the rule, so what could two poor oud chaps like us do again it?
2153Well, the regiment was ordered to Chester( did I tell you he was an officer?
2153Were a few hasty words, spoken in a moment of irritation, to stamp her lot through life?
2153Were the delegates empowered to accept such offer?
2153Were there any means by which he might be persuaded to spare John Barton''s memory?
2153What are you copying, Amy?"
2153What are you looking at me so strangely for, Sophy?"
2153What are you stopping for?"
2153What better sentence can an emperor wish to have said over his bier?
2153What boots thy pity now?
2153What can he want, Jem?"
2153What could a fellow who had never been many miles from home know about the wonders of the deep, that he should put him down in that way?
2153What could he do for him?
2153What could her father be doing up- stairs?
2153What could she answer?
2153What d''ye mean by trouble?
2153What did she want there?
2153What did ye say about that?"
2153What do they say?"
2153What do you say, mother?"
2153What do you think, Helen?"
2153What gown are you going in, Mary?"
2153What had she done to deserve such cruel treatment from him?
2153What has Jem done?
2153What have I been doing?
2153What have I done, Mary?
2153What if Mary should implicate her father?
2153What is it?"
2153What must I say?"
2153What news?"
2153What rustled under her hand in the pocket?
2153What shall I do?
2153What should he do to tempt her?
2153What should he say?
2153What use could it be of to a landsman?
2153What was it?
2153What was she to think?
2153What were these hollow vanities to her, now she had discovered the passionate secret of her soul?
2153What were you fretting about, first place?"
2153What would Mary say?"
2153What would you have me do?"
2153What''s he going to do in Glasgow?--Seek for work?
2153What''s the matter?
2153What''s the use of watching?
2153What''s up that he ca n''t come home and help me nurse?
2153Whatten you want it for?"
2153When do you go?"
2153When it''s a matter of life and death to Jem?"
2153When they had ended, he said,"Where was he shot?"
2153When?
2153Where are you bound to?"
2153Where are you going to?"
2153Where did they find him?
2153Where did you see her?
2153Where han ye been this many a year?
2153Where han ye been wandering that we none of us could find you out?"
2153Where have you been to, first place?"
2153Where is Jem?"
2153Where is she, Charley?
2153Where is the wisdom that shall bridge this gulf, And bind them once again in trust and love?"
2153Where was it?
2153Where''s Jem Wilson?"
2153Where''s your father going?
2153Where''s your father?
2153Where?
2153Which business is of most consequence i''the sight o''God, think yo, our''n or them gran ladies and gentlemen as yo think so much on?''
2153Which did you prefer?"
2153Which was the favoured lover?
2153Who cared for her?
2153Who could resist her voice, her tones of misery, of humility?
2153Who could tell how maddened he might have been by jealousy; how one moment''s uncontrollable passion might have led him to become a murderer?
2153Who did she go with, lad?"
2153Who is to believe me,--who is to think him innocent, if you, who know''d him so well, stick to it he''s guilty?"
2153Who so likely as Margaret to treasure every little particular respecting Will, now Alice was dead to all the stirring purposes of life?
2153Who will give her help in her day of need?
2153Who would refuse the kindness for which she begged so penitently?
2153Who would then guard Mary, with her love and her innocence?
2153Whose doing is it?
2153Why did he not come down?
2153Why did n''t he go for the doctor?"
2153Why did she ever give ear to her own suggestions, and cravings after wealth and grandeur?
2153Why do you torment me with questions like these?
2153Why does she not come to bed?
2153Why had she singled him out?
2153Why had she thought it a fine thing to have a rich lover?
2153Why have we made them what they are; a powerful monster, yet without the inner means for peace and happiness?
2153Why should he alone suffer from bad times?
2153Why should not we?"
2153Why should you think I''ve only room for one love in my heart?
2153Why were the masters offering such low wages under these circumstances?
2153Why, this very night she roused me up, and''Job,''says she,''I ask your pardon for wakening you, but tell me, am I awake or dreaming?
2153Will would have proved an_ alibi_,--but he''s gone,--and what am I to do?"
2153Will you be clemmed, or will you be worried?''
2153Will you have the kindness to inform the gentlemen of the jury what has been your charge for repeating this very plausible story?
2153Will you tell him this, Sally?
2153Will you tell me?"
2153With a husky voice that trembled as he spoke, he said,"I think, sir, yo''re keeping company wi''a young woman called Mary Barton?"
2153With all the glories of the garden at his hand, why did he prefer to cull the wild- rose,--Jem''s own fragrant wild- rose?
2153Wo n''t that be a good_ alibi_?"
2153Would Mary care?
2153Would Mary like to see her?
2153Would Mrs. Davenport and the little child go home with Mary?
2153Would it grieve thee sore to quit the old smoke- jack?"
2153Would n''t that be nice?
2153Would she care in the very least?
2153Would somebody with a wig on please to ask him how much he can say for me?"
2153Would you not be glad to forget life, and its burdens?
2153Yo''ve seen th''hearses wi''white plumes, Job?"
2153You know Mary Barton, do n''t you?"
2153You know them two letters, Margaret?"
2153You recollect aunt Esther, do n''t you, Mary?"
2153You remember the reward Mr. Carson offered for the apprehension of the murderer of his son?
2153You remember, do n''t you, love?
2153You say he''s sailed; what can be done?"
2153You wo n''t even say you''ll try and like me; will you, Mary?"
2153You would not fancy this I have on, more nor the scarf, would you?"
2153You''d like me to have some one to make me as happy as you made father?
2153You''ll have heard of old Jacob Butterworth, the singing weaver?
2153You''ll not tell her, Mary?"
2153You''ll often speak of me to her, Mary?
2153You''re one of th''Union, Job?"
2153You''re sure, girls, you''re under no mistake about Will?"
2153You''ve never been quarrelling wi''Jem, surely?"
2153[ 41] But I knew blind folks must not be nesh about using their tongues, so says I,''Jem Wilson, is that you?''
2153_ He did not know what he was doing_, did you, little boy?
2153and did not Margaret tell yo what he''d done wi''it?
2153and do n''t you see what a sacrifice I was making to humour her?
2153and everybody?"
2153and have n''t you a shawl, under which you can tuck one lad''s head, as safe as a bird''s under its wing?
2153and what brings you here?"
2153and why on earth are you walking?
2153and yet what can I do?
2153and, in a lower voice, he added,"Any news of Esther, yet?"
2153are you sure he is dead?"
2153art thou there?"
2153asked Barton, the latent fire lighting up his eye: and bursting forth, he continued,"If I am sick, do they come and nurse me?
2153asked I,''going decently about our business, which is life and death to us, and many a little one clemming at home in Lancashire?
2153but how did she know?
2153but what has that to do with remembering Alice?"
2153ca n''t we get past?"
2153child, what''s the matter?
2153did n''t you know it?
2153did you say?
2153do n''t go on talking a- that- ns; how can I think on dress at such a time?
2153do n''t tell me it''s not the Queen as makes laws; and is n''t she bound to obey Prince Albert?
2153do you know I sometimes think I''m growing a little blind, and then what would become of grandfather and me?
2153do you mean fair by Mary or not?
2153do you think we may ring for tea?
2153do you think you could just coax poor Will to walk a bit home with you, that I might speak to mother by myself?"
2153donna ye see the fire- light?
2153else where''s the use?
2153have I heard you aright?
2153have you gotten a spare night- cap?''
2153how should I know?
2153how should he bear it?
2153is Will Wilson here?"
2153is n''t an_ alibi_ a proving where he really was at th''time of the murder; and how must I set about an_ alibi_?"
2153is that you?
2153muttered he,"who''d ha''thought of my turning out such an arrant liar in my old days?"
2153muttered she,"what have you done?--What must I do?
2153my only son?"
2153of your acquaintance, in short?
2153one would think you were the first girl that ever had a lover; have you never heard what other girls do and think no shame of?"
2153or of Alecto?
2153or what brings the old chap here?
2153or when?"
2153perhaps he might have given it away; but then must it not have been to Jem?
2153said he feebly,"is it thee?
2153said he, almost angrily,"why did you not state the case fully at first?
2153said the boy, impatiently,"why, have not I told you?
2153see him at his trial?
2153speak out, ca n''t ye, and ha''done with it?"
2153tell me, is he ill?"
2153the aunt to Mary?
2153then, was that man whose figure loomed out against the ever increasing dull hot light behind, whenever the smoke was clear,--was that George Wilson?
2153wailed forth his wife,"have you no thought for me?
2153was there no other little thought of joy lurking within, to gladden the very air without?
2153what am I saying?"
2153what could be the matter with him?
2153what could we_ not_ do, if we could but find her?
2153what mun I say?"
2153what terrible thought flashed into her mind; or was it only fancy?
2153what think yo of a lawyer?
2153what was birth to a Manchester manufacturer, many of whom glory, and justly too, in being the architects of their own fortunes?
2153what''s the matter with you?
2153when would it come?
2153where was he, Margaret?"
2153who might have made them different?)
2153who would comfort her?
2153who''s she?
2153whose word hast thou for that?"
2153why do you hold me so tight?
2153why do you shake your head?
2153why had Esther chosen him for this office?
2153will you bless me on my errand?
2153will you tell me?"
2153wo n''t that much do?"
2153you and Margaret will often go and see her, wo n''t you?
2153you''re tired already, are you?
2153you_ will_ save her?"
