61696But the keys-- how did you get them?

61696But-- this cavern... the machines: what do they mean?
61696Can we do it in forty- five minutes?

61696Have n''t you done with persecuting us for one night?
61696How do they operate? 61696 How do we move the blessed thing?"
61696How?
61696Irak, you''re telling the truth?
61696Irak-- what the devil are you doing here?

61696What good will you be to them dead?
61696What miserable errand brings you here?
61696What''s the meaning of this? 61696 What?"
61696Where do you come in?
61696Who would n''t be, after eighteen years of blistering Martian suns? 61696 Who''s going to carry it off?
61696Would that suit you better?
61696Would this be possible? 61696 You admit conspiracy with this rebel?"
61696You mean Arzt has decreed our death?
61696You said-- a fellow_ Venusian_? 61696 And why would they let me hold such a responsible position?
61696Are you deceiving yourself that these damned Venusian dogs are good enough for a Martian officer?"
61696Arzt grunted, puzzled,"You wouldn''t--?
61696But as a favor-- would you mind taking the black cross off my quarters?"
61696But do they receive it?
61696But the joke may backlash....""And you?"
61696But... was the door moving?
61696Ca n''t a man and his daughter call on their friends without being watched like criminals?"
61696Could anyone get that close to it without being caught?"
61696Could that not be arranged too?"
61696Draw on the Martian power station, I suppose?"
61696Had he heard aright?
61696Irak, who could be a more fitting ruler for Venus than the prince we lost and gained again?"
61696Now, you bag of bones--"he roared suddenly,"where is that map?"
61696She said softly:"That was your only reason?"
61696Someone gruffed:"Who is it?
61696Starting from that basis, would you mind explaining your remarks?"
61696The_ radite_ is guarded, is it not?"
61696Were-- were we in time?"
61696What do you want?"
61696What would they think of us if we ran out now?"
61696What''s the matter with you, Lolan?
61696Where are we going?"
61696Who''s got it-- one of you, or Lugo?"
61696Why fight it any longer?
61696Why not, you grinning, ugly little ape?"
61696Why were they needed especially now-- because of a coming revolution?
61696Why?"
61499Are you crazy? 61499 Are you sure Zeburzac was missing his left hand?"
61499Carlton? 61499 D''you think that''d stop them?
61499Explosion? 61499 Governor?"
61499Have many of us arrived?
61499How are the others doing?
61499How come?
61499How did you do it?
61499How do we rate as your enemies?
61499How do you like that one?
61499How do you now know my name?
61499Into where?
61499Joke? 61499 Me?
61499My loyalty? 61499 Oh, yeah?
61499Oh-- do you know what this Serono Zeburzac looks like?
61499Oh-- rebels? 61499 Old mines?
61499Rebel? 61499 Sure, but how can I get down?"
61499That all, chief? 61499 Tomorrow morning?
61499Wait a minute, how do we get out of here?
61499Well, now what?
61499Well, what are we waiting for? 61499 Well, what do we do now?
61499Well, what do you think?
61499Well, what the dickens does he look like?
61499What are we stopping here for?
61499What do we do? 61499 What do you mean by leading them here?"
61499What do you mean?
61499What do you want?
61499What do you want?
61499What the devil are you doing here?
61499What the devil do you want? 61499 What''s that?"
61499Where are we heading for?
61499Where does that lead to?
61499Where the dickens are we?
61499Where? 61499 Wherethehell''s who?"
61499Who are you?
61499Who are you?
61499Who built it?
61499Who did this to you?
61499Who is it, Max?
61499Who was that crazy coot and what is this place?
61499Who''s here?
61499Why, McHague, my dear friend, you did n''t think I would overlook a simple thing like this?
61499Why? 61499 Yeah, I said rebel, an''where is she?"
61499You did n''t think I was going to leave the ship where Zeburzac could find it, did you?
61499You knew?
61499--he flexed the fingers of his own left hand for emphasis--"and not-- his right?"
61499But now that we''ve made a mess of the old homestead, what do we do?"
61499But-- what made you come to this place?
61499Can we get there?"
61499Can you handle it?"
61499Did you say rebel?"
61499Do you know who could have done it?"
61499Do you want to get us shot?"
61499Gon na quit now?"
61499Have n''t you caused enough blasted trouble already?"
61499Hide here?"
61499How in thunder can you do it?"
61499How is he?"
61499How long have you been in with that bunch?
61499I wonder how the devil they traced us?
61499Is that girl as good- looking as they say she is?"
61499Is there any other way of getting out of this place?"
61499Just stand here?
61499That was just... Pete said... rebel?
61499This Mr. Hanson--""Hanson?
61499Us with one projector against what they''ve got?"
61499Want to go and interview them?"
61499Was she one of the old Venusian family of James?"
61499What about yours?
61499What do you think this revolution is about?"
61499What old mines?"
61499What the devil had that flat- foot been smirking about?
61499What the--""Where is she?"
61499What''s going to happen?"
61499What''s that?"
61499Where can we go?"
61499Where does this corridor lead to?"
61499Where was Zeburzac heading?
61499Where''s a hole to get out through?"
61499Where''s this Five Valleys place?
61499Where''s this ladder?"
61499You do n''t think I was going to have women running around in here, do you?"
61499You do n''t think we have a chance of getting away from here, do you?"
62377After that, we''ll be taken care of?
62377Aladdian warned us against Luhor, remember? 62377 Aladdian,"Mark spoke worriedly,"is n''t it a risk for you to broadcast at all?
62377Aladdian,he said,"do you know much of their plans and what is being done with this new metal?"
62377All through?
62377And I suppose either the ore, or the smelted metal''s being shipped to secret bases on Mars and Venus?
62377And Luhor? 62377 And the system of caverns-- how far does it extend?
62377And then?
62377Are you still a guest? 62377 Around a spaceship?
62377But Aladdian and Mark? 62377 But how?
62377But how? 62377 But this Luhor,"Mark asked,"what is his real status?
62377But what is it all about, Aladdo?
62377But why?
62377Can we? 62377 Did they pick you up at the swamp, too?"
62377Do you suppose, Earthman, any of the other men saw you find it? 62377 Do you think,"he said slowly,"if there were any way out, I would be here?
62377Does this mean we''re actually going to attempt a landing on Vulcan?
62377First,came the Coordinator''s voice,"how are_ you_ to prevent that fiend Luhor from pursuing his course?
62377Have you any concrete knowledge of their plans?
62377How did you get here?
62377How far is that range of hills, Commander?
62377How long since we left Venus?
62377How-- how do you know this?
62377How-- how do you know?
62377How? 62377 How?
62377I suppose they''re mining that metal here?
62377I wonder if it will be safe to arm the men?
62377Metal? 62377 Now I wonder why he wanted to eliminate me?"
62377Out of Paradim?
62377Revolt fanned by Marnik?
62377The hills... are those the hills? 62377 They let you have this?"
62377Vulc? 62377 What are you mumbling about to yourself?"
62377What are you waiting for?
62377What do you ask?
62377What do you care?
62377What is all this? 62377 What was Earth''s Government thinking of?
62377What was it the Commander gave him before we left?
62377What''s that?
62377What''s the purpose behind all this? 62377 What?
62377When do we start?
62377Who''s Vulc?
62377Who''s at the controls?
62377Why does any man want to leave there? 62377 Why were you sent there?"
62377Why?
62377Will... will I be pardoned?
62377With us?
62377You and Commander Cynthia?
62377You had only been there a few months?
62377You know each other?
62377You mean... you''re not in sympathy with their plans? 62377 You wo n''t find_ that_ type of navigation in the''Advanced Principles,''eh, Earthman?"
62377*****"What did you mean by''ambassador of peace,''Carston?"
62377A new alloy?"
62377And I''d go with you, Carston, but how is it possible now?
62377And second, what guarantees will we have that Venus will not build more of the allotropic cruisers to attack?"
62377And the metal?..."
62377And who is that girl?
62377Are n''t those hills practically honeycombed their entire length?
62377But what was that bit of information you received?"
62377Cynthia, I''ve loved you from the very first... did n''t you know?
62377Do you suppose Venus will ever be content now with anything short of war?"
62377Escape?
62377How had this criminal been able to escape the swamp and travel to Callisto, millions of miles away?
62377How much backing can you expect from Venus, Aladdian?"
62377How?
62377I understand that you worked hard there?"
62377It is a small universe after all,"he added, turning to Carston,"eh, Colonel?"
62377It would not be that you seek to gain time for your people to rally to you, now that they know you have escaped the Prison Swamp?
62377Luhor, is this the last one?"
62377Remember Aladdian, the corridors-- a honeycomb of caverns?
62377She left a daughter, about five years old, whom they had named Cynthia... do you follow me?"
62377That you wo n''t serve as a rallying point to sway the masses of Venus?"
62377V"Only twenty- two men, Luhor?"
62377What can we do?"
62377What can you do?"
62377What do you mean,''Princess''?
62377What sort of speed has this Spacer?"
62377Where are they keeping you?
62377Where did you ever dig up_ that_?"
62377Who among you knows how to repair that breach?"
62377Who''s with me?"
62377Why?"
62377Will someone explain?"
62377Would it not mean death, or worse, for them both?"
62377Would n''t he have picked up your beam on the Spacer and heard you?"
62377Yes, you have the formula for the allotropic metal-- but what good is it to you without a source of supply?
62377You Venusian demon-- where have you been?"
62377You have the location of the asteroid-- but do you suppose your fleet can stand against such a mobile fortress as Luhor will make it?
62377You would n''t have believed it possible, eh?
62377You''ve caught someone''s thought vibrations?"
62377Your crime... was it political?"
62377_ Our hills?_"Carston nodded dumbly.
38982But why,asks Kautsky,"did you not summon a new Constituent Assembly?"
38982But, in that case, in what do your tactics differ from the tactics of Tsarism?
38982Wherein, then, does your Socialism,Abramovich cries,"differ from Egyptian slavery?
38982(_ What are the Bolshevists doing?_ Published by Dr. Nath.
38982All this is splendid-- only why do not the Mensheviks offer us several hundred boards?
38982And after all, how should he think of them?
38982And at what moment?
38982And why?
38982And, first of all, whence does this come?
38982And, if the collegiate principle is not a sacred gospel for the workshops, why is it compulsory for the factories?
38982Are we depriving ourselves of Cadet and Menshevik criticisms of the corruption of the working class?
38982Are we not dealing here with"shades of opinion"in the proletarian or the Socialist movement?
38982But did we not hear exactly the same criticism, at bottom, when we had recourse to extensive mobilizations for military problems?
38982But does this mean that Trotsky had to be rash enough to continue the war against Germany?
38982But how are we to get at it?
38982But in that case, what happens to the class struggle altogether?
38982But in this connection there was always less thought"( amongst whom?
38982But it is quite justifiable to ask: Did the latter correspond to the balance of power?
38982But then, why have Soviets sprung up in Germany?
38982But what does the art of exegesis exist for?
38982But what then becomes of the sacredness of human life?
38982But where is your guarantee, certain wise men ask us, that it is just your party that expresses the interests of historical development?
38982But will the partners agree?
38982But with what did we begin?
38982But, perhaps, we are expected to consider them"intolerable"?
38982By what other path then can it be attained?
38982By whose decision?
38982Can it be otherwise?
38982Can it, without a fight, abandon its booty altogether?
38982Did we, by our conduct, give the European workers even the shadow of a ground to place us in the same category as German imperialism?
38982Do you grasp this... distinction?
38982Does Kautsky desire to insist that we should allow the parties which support Denikin to come out into the open?
38982Economic pressure or legal compulsion?
38982Firstly: Why did we summon the Constituent Assembly when we had in view the dictatorship of the proletariat?
38982How are we practically to begin the utilization of labor- power on the basis of compulsory military service?
38982How are we productively to organize it?
38982How are we to apply it?
38982However, even here it is permissible to ask: Does the policy of Clemenceau himself really correspond to the balance of power?
38982If collegiate administration is a"school,"why do we not require an elementary school?
38982In what way?
38982In what, however, lies the difference between them?
38982Is an insurrection of oppressed slaves against their masters permissible?
38982Is it permissible to purchase one''s freedom at the cost of the life of one''s jailers?
38982Is it permissible to suppress newspapers?
38982Is it still necessary to confute Kautsky theoretically?
38982Is there still theoretical necessity to justify revolutionary terrorism?
38982Is this true?
38982It is true that compulsory labor is always unproductive?
38982May one kill the murderer to save oneself?
38982Or does he reduce the whole question to the_ degree_ of repression, and recommend in all circumstances imprisonment instead of execution?
38982Ought one not absolutely to repudiate them in the Ebert Republic?
38982Perhaps Kautsky has invented other methods?
38982Since what time has this been admitted by our Kautskians?
38982The whole question is, did we allow ourselves to be utilized?
38982The whole question is: who applies the principle of compulsion, over whom, and for what purpose?
38982The working class or the landlord class, Pharaohs or peasants, White Guards or the Petrograd proletariat?
38982There is a difference, gentlemen, and it is defined by a fundamental test: who is in power?
38982To dismiss them to the four corners of the earth, saying"seek for better conditions where you can find them, comrades"?
38982We ask what does compulsory labor mean here, that is, to what kind of labor is it opposed?
38982What State, what class, in what conditions, by what methods?
38982What are the conclusions to be drawn from that experience?
38982What are we to understand, in that case, by free labor?
38982What did I say in reality?
38982What does this mean?
38982What happened in reality?
38982What methods have we, then, for the re- education of the workers?
38982What tasks?
38982What thoughts have they in common with us?
38982What would Kautsky say to this rank betrayal, Kautsky, the foremost disciple of Marx, Kautsky, the foremost theoretician of the Second International?
38982What, however, will be the"constitutional"position of the Soviets in the republic of Zeiz, Renner and company?
38982When a murderer raises his knife over a child, may one kill the murderer to save the child?
38982When it came to a real struggle, and to the creation of a real army against the real enemies of the working class, what did you do then?
38982When suggesting to us the election of a Constituent Assembly, does Kautsky propose the stopping of the civil war for the purpose of the elections?
38982Whence have they appeared?
38982Where is the difference?
38982Why do we speak of_ militarization_?
38982Why should we not introduce boards into the workshops?
38982Why?
38982Will he at least speak up?
38982Will it come, the seeming inevitable?
38982Will not thereby the principle of the"sacredness of human life"be infringed?
38982Will there be any need of it then?
38982Would it pay for itself?
38982Would not the fate of the Russian Revolution long ago have been sealed?
38982Would the Red soldiers work?
38982Would their work be sufficiently productive?
38982Yes?
38982You do not understand this, holy men?
38982_ How could their lives be spared any longer_ after the blood- bath with which MacMahon''s Pretorians celebrated their entry into Paris?"
61845All right, where is it? 61845 And have them see us swing?"
61845Any of the crew with weapons?
61845Are the crew members allowed to be armed?
61845Are you all right?
61845Are you going to tell?
61845Bentley murdered? 61845 But what are we going to do?"
61845But, my dear little lady, do you want me to kill Penelle? 61845 By the way, have you seen Mr. Polter?
61845Do n''t you see I''d rather not kill you?
61845Do you smell it already? 61845 Down there-- see him?
61845Ever been down there, Jim?
61845Going to the Moon, for what?
61845Have you had enough, Captain?
61845How is the revolution going? 61845 How many in the crew?"
61845How many passengers this voyage?
61845If anything happens to me-- or him--Him?
61845Inspired by the moonlight?
61845Is-- is Nina all right?
61845Jim Durk? 61845 Nina, did he hurt you?"
61845Nina, what''s the matter?
61845Oh, so you''re the one who''s willing to tell?
61845Oh, you Penelle? 61845 Or have you, Set Mokk?"
61845See it, Captain?
61845So you''re going to try that too?
61845That Martian? 61845 That hunchback-- that fellow Durk-- have you seen him?"
61845The Purser, sir? 61845 The little Earth- girl fascinates you, eh, Torio?
61845Think you can work it all right?
61845We are now just about here, Captain?
61845Well, Georg Blake died, quite mysteriously, a few days ago--"Murdered?
61845What I know about what?
61845What are we going to do?
61845What do you think we ought to do? 61845 What is it?"
61845What''s all this got to do with me, and the_ X-87_?
61845What''s that got to do with me?
61845What''s the matter, Captain?
61845What''s your name?
61845What-- what is it?
61845Who are you?
61845Who''s that?
61845Why not?
61845Why, little lady, did n''t you know? 61845 Would n''t that precipitate whatever it is they''re planning to do?"
61845Would that be most swift? 61845 Yes?
61845You armed?
61845You can all go to hell-- you murderers-- bandits--"Back to Earth?
61845You do not trust me?
61845You''re afraid of that fellow, Nina?
61845Your first flight, Penelle?
61845_ X-87?_I murmured.
61845***** As I started for the door I gripped him, whispered:"Captain-- where have you got the T- catalyst hidden?"
61845*****"So you are going to the Moon to work for the Blake Company?"
61845And of the ship''s officers, whom could we trust?
61845Are you hungry?"
61845Bentley''s there dead-- drilled through the chest--""Bentley killed?
61845But if they win, I expect you''ll call them patriots?"
61845But would that be quick enough?
61845Ca n''t you find your cubby?"
61845Could he by any wild chance, have been the figure I saw climb out of Nina''s window?
61845Did his sudden appearance strike terror into Nina?
61845Did that mean that the captain and the others in the control turret had been killed?
61845Did they really think I was a mathematics clerk?
61845Dr. Fyre, the Surgeon?
61845Five of the crew-- that would include the hunchback Durk... Mokk, the Martian?
61845Frye?"
61845Frye?"
61845Had he been sent away, so that Torio now might be alone with Nina?
61845Had that fact leaked out?
61845Have you seen Mokk?"
61845How many of the mutineers were there?
61845How much time had passed?
61845If I could catch Bentley at it-- force him to explain-- Or was it someone else tampering with the complex gravitational mechanisms down there?...
61845James Polter, the Purser?
61845Nina said suddenly,"This silence everywhere about the ship-- where are the passengers?"
61845Nina''s voice came echoing back into my mind...."No-- no Jim, don''t--"Was this the fellow who had climbed out of her window just a few moments ago?
61845No, Jim-- don''t--"James Polter, the Purser?
61845Nothing?
61845Oh, what shall we do?
61845Ollog Torio, the pallid Venus man?
61845Or was it my own pounding heart?...
61845Perhaps only coincidences--""Such as what?"
61845Pressure porte?"
61845Safe?
61845See him?"
61845See the ship?"
61845So this was one of the criminals; the fellow who had tried to melt into the helio room?
61845Some of the other passengers maybe?
61845Someone looking in?
61845Ten minutes?
61845The eavesdropper?
61845The engines of their mining equipment--""You mean it''s being stolen from them?"
61845The man who had been in Nina''s room?
61845The sort of voice one might use to disguise its natural tone?
61845Then I had another thought: young Len Smith, the helio man-- could he be trusted?
61845These damnable murderers--"Then he swung at me; lowered his voice:"Mackensie has the catalyst?"
61845This Ollog Torio-- was he what he seemed, just a wealthy traveler?
61845Up there with you in the turret, is n''t it?"
61845Was he going to kill me now out of hand?
61845Was it Mokk?
61845Was it that one of them wanted to observe Nina and me alone?
61845Was it that?
61845Was someone here able to watch me?
61845Was the terror still upon her?
61845Was there something artificially invisible stalking here?
61845What can we do?"
61845What could financiers back at their desks in Great- New York have to do with us, embattled out here in Space, barricaded in our little chart room?
61845What do you say?"
61845What ghastly hold could this fellow have upon Nina?
61845What the hell of it?
61845What was the huge coffin- like trunk, which sounded like a time- bomb?
61845What was this?
61845What was this?
61845What was this?
61845What''s the matter?
61845What''s your idea?
61845Where is it?"
61845Where is the T- catalyst?
61845Who is it?"
61845Who were they?
61845Who?
61845Why was Bentley experimenting with his controls?
61845Why was Nina so terrified of that ugly hunchback?
61845Why was the beautiful little Nina Blake so flooded with secret terror?
61845Would it bring an attack from them?
61845Would it make any sound and alarm Torio in the chart room under it?
61845Would n''t it?
61845Would that give us time enough?
61845Would the leaden cylinder of the catalyst still be here?
61845Would the pirates be aware of our efforts?
61845Would this be a good time to try and talk with him?
61845You and I can trust each other, eh?
61845You heard them?"
61845You know about that, Fred?"
61845You''re a new man, are n''t you?"
62395A delegation from the women of the city--"What do they want?
62395A triangular scar? 62395 Adjacent?
62395And then?
62395Azt--?
62395But then,stammered Dirk,"if not on Nadron, where_ is_ your new plane of existence?"
62395Confusing at first, is n''t it? 62395 Council?"
62395Dead? 62395 Destruction?"
62395Dirk,he begged,"for the last time... let us share this with you?
62395Do n''t you trust me, Corporal? 62395 Earth, perhaps?
62395Eh?
62395Furthermore, it is ridiculous to assume--The Emperor stopped abruptly, his brow congealing--"Eh?
62395Have you forgotten your promise?
62395Have you forgotten,asked Slador,"the strangeness of your own existence here?
62395Have you gone mad?
62395How came you here?
62395How could it be?
62395If you will look through this--?
62395Is this,he asked hoarsely,"the image you saw?"
62395Lost homeland? 62395 Maybe hold too tight?"
62395Me? 62395 Morris was afraid of nothing; man, beast, nor devil--""And..._ and we_?"
62395Neighboring world?
62395Now you understand and believe, my boy?
62395Oh, you mean... then, you... you saw?
62395Price?
62395Receipt? 62395 Someone make a complaint?
62395Sure?
62395Surely_ you_ should know, Dirk Morris, that one can not pass with impunity from one universe of vibration to another?
62395Then we can never see you again, Dirk?
62395There are?
62395Trap?
62395W- who said that?
62395Was that explosion,demanded Shaughnessey,"imagination?
62395Well, Dirk Morris?
62395Well, Marta?
62395Well, Marta?
62395Well, Morris?
62395Well, my friend?
62395Well... now that you know, what are you going to do about it?
62395Well?
62395Wh- where are you?
62395What do we do, Dirk?
62395What is it, Tandred? 62395 What means of propulsion brought you hither?"
62395What means this, my parent? 62395 What price do you ask?"
62395What way, Dirk Morris?
62395What ways, Ptan Slador?
62395What? 62395 What?"
62395Where are you?
62395Where--?
62395Who dares enter the boudoir of the Princess Lenore?
62395Why must they fret me with their miserable woes? 62395 You are sure--"hesitated the girl--"this is not a trap of some sort?"
62395You dare bargain with the System''s Emperor?
62395You do let business interfere with pleasure, do you, Dirk Morris?
62395You mean to use our world as the breeding- place for conflict on yours? 62395 You mean,"cried the girl,"one man has dared grasp so much power?
62395You mean--?
62395You plan to kill them all, Dirk?
62395You will keep your promise? 62395 You''re sure, Neil?"
62395You... you mean,choked Neil,"you can make yourself visible if you wish?"
62395Your plans were successful?
62395_ I so dare, Princess._"And... and who are you?
62395_ Send them away, eh, Princess? 62395 _ You''ll bring the guard down upon us!_""Us?"
62395*****"Faking?
62395A thousand credits, was n''t it?
62395And for a long time two remarkably similar heads, both in physiognomy and mentality, bent close together in conference.... VI"Tonight?"
62395And how, even more strangely, does it come about that you of Nadron and we of Earth are identical in physical structure?
62395And the death I promised you lies in store for me?
62395And whence comes she, that she dares enter the stronghold of the Emperor?"
62395Anything wrong?"
62395Are these all you live for, then?
62395Are you so sure of that, my father?"
62395Are you too proud to buy your life at the expense of rebellion?
62395Before he died, Morris told it to--"Hardesty interrupted coldly,"Am I to understand, Garroway, that this man is no longer under your protection?"
62395Brian, are you sure it was--?"
62395But how--?"
62395But surely, sir, you do n''t mean--?"
62395But the... the receipt, sir?"
62395But... where are you?"
62395Cold stones?
62395Could a nervous reaction account for the theft of my jewels, or the shattering of my mirror?"
62395Did you say... a small scar above his right eyebrow?"
62395Dirk said,"You mean that you, as I did, have become a... a wraith to your own world?
62395Dirk--""Do about it?"
62395Do n''t you know what it means to hunger and be without bread, to want and be without hope, to love and be without love?
62395Do you see?"
62395Do you think the Princess saw you in this mirror?"
62395Do you understand?_""No!"
62395Does she love you enough to join you in the new world which is the only one whereon you now can live?
62395Enough to join you on Nadron?"
62395For what?"
62395Hardesty asked,"Far planets, Dirk?
62395Hardesty whispered,"It... it is over?"
62395Has it not occurred to you to wonder that we, the people of a foreign world, know your language?"
62395Have you decided to tell your secret?"
62395Have you forgotten the medical science of which your attendants are capable?
62395He asked,"How is it, Ptan Slador, you know so much about the history of Earthmen?
62395He demanded hoarsely,"Who is this woman?
62395He said,"Must... must I, then, be the one to judge, Rima?
62395He whispered:"This, then, is the end?
62395Here, as elsewhere, a frightened populace began by asking,"Why?"
62395How dare you--?"
62395How many miles... or light years... are we from my native Earth?"
62395I can not allow so dangerous a foe to live--""No?
62395I join my father in exile?"
62395If you must have this man--"He turned to Morris--"Well, what say_ you_, rebel?
62395In all your life, have you known only the icy caress of gems?
62395In as level a voice as he could muster he said,"So we meet again, Overlord of scavengers?"
62395Is n''t that what you mean, Dirk?"
62395Is that your meaning, Graed Garroway?
62395Is that your thought?"
62395Is_ that_ the great invention we''ve been risking our lives for?
62395It was, perhaps, quartz?"
62395Look, my young friend... your Earth science knows of the atom?"
62395Meanwhile--""Yes?"
62395My companions go free when I die?"
62395Not this--?_"And harshly, stunningly, the cries of the Princess Lenore were stifled by the crush of male lips upon her own.
62395Now, what must be done?"
62395Or is it that you do not yet see how this can be bent to use?
62395Or must your fortresses continue to fall because of all on earth, I alone know how this phantom may be caught?"
62395Or will you accept life at the price of a new existence of loyalty... to me?"
62395Our planet will become your new world?"
62395Perhaps you are joking--?"
62395Rima said,"Dirk... you have laid careful plans for tonight?
62395Rima, my dear--?"
62395Shaughnessey said,"Huh?
62395She asked,"And I?
62395She drawled, half amusedly,"Lies?
62395So much evil power?"
62395So that was your secret, eh?
62395Suppose we_ did_ have it?
62395Tell me... have you never heard of the land of Aztlan?"
62395That henceforth you have no true existence on Nadron, as I none on Earth?"
62395That it?"
62395Then the ancient religions were true?
62395Then you... you found Dr. Townsend''s chamber?"
62395This mirror... it was not plain, silvered glass?
62395Vurrth grunted, and Brian Shaughnessey husked,"You see?
62395Vurrth said thoughtfully,"But Dirk dead, no?"
62395Well, Dirk?"
62395Well... now that you know the identity of the Ghost, what are you going to do?"
62395What better place?"
62395What better time to bring an abrupt end to his tyranny?"
62395What did you say?
62395What does it mean?"
62395What good would it do us?
62395What''s he got to thank_ you_ for, Fred?"
62395What''s that?
62395Where did it go?
62395Where was it... or is it?"
62395Which can compare with him in audacity and daring?"
62395Who amongst them can match in strength and vigor the spirit of Dirk Morris?
62395Who is he?"
62395Why do you call the guards?"
62395Why is this?"
62395Why was that?"
62395Why?
62395Why?"
62395Will you give me the man, Dirk Morris, and put an end to these depredations?
62395Yet, if it were not a disintegration machine, then what--?
62395You are certain of that?"
62395You can do this from concealment?"
62395You can leave Nadron, then?"
62395You have plotted every move you will make?"
62395You have succeeded here, too?"
62395You mean in Space?"
62395You were telling me of your adventures--?"
62395You... you will come soon, my Princess?"
62395Your late leader succeeded in perfecting a disintegration chamber?"
62395Your system lies just where in relation to the galactic center?
62395and rapidly changed its query to the more daring,"Why not?"
62395he began--"where on earth--?"
50906Ah,said Lucile impetuously,"whither are you hurrying us in the future,--to revolution?"
50906All?
50906And Savrola?
50906And he?
50906And if we refuse to comply?
50906And modern civilisation?
50906And that moment?
50906And then?
50906And this is the moment?
50906And this----?
50906And what then, Sir?
50906And when,she asked merrily,"do we declare war?"
50906And you believe all this that you have said?
50906And you think I shall have to pay for this excitement and enthusiasm? 50906 And you will not?"
50906Are you going to release them?
50906Are you not playing with mighty forces?
50906Are you wounded, Sir?
50906Betrayed? 50906 But are these things so?"
50906But the troops?
50906But why do you claim a higher origin for beauty and honesty?
50906But why should they block the channel now,--why not wait?
50906But why?
50906But your wound?
50906By whose authority?
50906Can I do nothing, nothing?
50906Can I not help you?
50906Can you do nothing?
50906Captain Lecomte,said the Colonel,"what is the name of the right- hand man of your company?"
50906Certainly, when shall I start?
50906Come?
50906Could you get along the wires?
50906Danger? 50906 Dare I plunge two nations into war for the sake of a waltz?"
50906Did he tell you anything?
50906Do we choose? 50906 Do you despise me very much?"
50906Do you mean in the way I forbade you to suggest, Sir?
50906Do you mean that she should implore him to hold his hand?
50906Do you suppose they cut up the wounded?
50906Do you think there is any chance of war?
50906Do? 50906 Finished, Miguel?"
50906For me? 50906 Has Colonel Sorrento come yet?"
50906Has he started?
50906Have I played my part? 50906 Have you arranged about an opposition?"
50906Have you reflected that you have forty human lives to answer for? 50906 Have you the report of the Agricultural Committee for last year?
50906How can we induce Savrola to speak? 50906 How could it be?"
50906How did it happen?
50906How do you know these things?
50906How do you know?
50906How do you mean?
50906How far are we away from the Plaza San Marco?
50906How?
50906I think the end is coming,he continued;"perhaps quite soon-- unless----?"
50906If you were to find him guilty of conspiracy, of plotting revolution, what would you do?
50906In what way?
50906Indeed?
50906Is he going to make a speech to- morrow?
50906Is it there you watch the stars?
50906Is she in this house?
50906Is that the triumph of moral superiority?
50906Is the regiment ready to move off?
50906Is there a mounted orderly?
50906Is there anything else to do? 50906 It is terrible to have power like that,"she replied earnestly; and then after a pause,"Where are we going to?"
50906May I ask,he said,"to what we are indebted for this welcome to our native city?"
50906More business?
50906My darling,said Molara,"why should you spoil your life by mixing in the darker side of politics?
50906My dear Moret, what should make you think that? 50906 My dear,"he said,"where have you been all this time?"
50906My husband?
50906Now tell me,he said,"do you call that a hot fire?"
50906Of what?
50906On the contrary, I am greatly interested; what then?
50906Perhaps the Romans in the summit of their power thought that too?
50906Public matters I suppose?
50906Really, and what is this that you are wearing?
50906Shall we go out?
50906Sir,he said,"you will allow me to go with my squadron to the front?
50906So you are glad there is to be war and that people are to be killed?
50906Surely there are many exceptions?
50906Suspects what?
50906That? 50906 There is a great meeting to- night, is there not?"
50906Thursday?
50906To what purpose then are all our efforts?
50906Too late?
50906Was that,she asked her mistress curiously,"the great Agitator?"
50906We must part,he said;"when shall we meet again,--Lucile?"
50906Well, what is it?
50906Well,he said,"when will you speak?"
50906What am I to do, then?
50906What are you writing?
50906What do you mean? 50906 What do you propose?"
50906What happened at the Senate?
50906What happened to him?
50906What has happened, Antonio? 50906 What has happened, Antonio?"
50906What has happened?
50906What have I done?
50906What have you got for me?
50906What is beauty,said Molara,"but what we choose to admire?"
50906What is it, Miguel?
50906What is it, mate?
50906What is the matter, Antonio? 50906 What is the use of throwing away your life, of waiting to taunt them?"
50906What is to be done, Savrola?
50906What of him?
50906What officer has charge of the prison?
50906What right had he to come without authorisation? 50906 What time is the meeting to- night?"
50906What time was Moret killed?
50906What will Strelitz say? 50906 What will Your Excellency wear?"
50906What will you do?
50906What''s going to happen now?
50906What, without a trial?
50906What?
50906When can you?
50906Where did this come from?
50906Where does that door lead to?
50906Where have you played?
50906Where is the President?
50906Where to, Sir?
50906Where to, Sir?
50906Where were you?
50906Which two are fit, Colonel?
50906Which way, then?
50906Who has committed this murder?
50906Why are they stopped?
50906Why did you stop me, Miguel?
50906Why do you assume that this triumph is permanent? 50906 Why do you sneer at honour?"
50906Why has he done this?
50906Why not Drogan?
50906Why not?
50906Why not?
50906Why should I?
50906Why should not the same laws hold good all over the universe, and, if possible, beyond it? 50906 Why should we try?"
50906Why will you cause further loss of life? 50906 Why will you persist?"
50906Why, may I ask?
50906Why?
50906Will you move, or must we move you?
50906With Savrola?
50906Would it sparkle as brightly in the Winter Palace?
50906Would you rise in the world? 50906 Yes?"
50906You are not going to declare that constancy is a series of changes? 50906 You are prepared to plunge the country in a civil war?"
50906You are still determined to drive us out?
50906You dislike Miguel?
50906You do not then believe in God?
50906You had no difficulty with the crowd?
50906You have a ticket for it?
50906You have informed me that Her Excellency has consented to ask Señor Savrola for information on this point?
50906You like the stars?
50906You mean that in your own case human caprice has been sufficiently constant? 50906 You mean that the crowd will accept no surrender?"
50906You mean that when the ships are gone you will no longer fear to rise?
50906You realise,she said earnestly and with an entire change of manner,"that we have to consider the political situation here?
50906You refuse all terms?
50906You think I ought to have been in the streets? 50906 You think they have done it on purpose?"
50906You think we are of no importance?
50906You think you can do all this?
50906You will accept Molara''s hospitality,--enter his house,--eat his food?
50906You will continue to try and find out his political intentions?
50906You will insult him, then?
50906You will talk to him?
50906You wrong me,said Savrola;"but will you do as I ask?"
50906Your power can rouse the multitude; but can you restrain them?
50906Above all, what course would he propose?
50906After all, why should his party dictate to him how he should rule his private life?
50906All this must fall on his name; what would Europe think, what would the world say?
50906Am I their master or their slave?
50906And all for what?
50906And for what?
50906And you,--will you forget?
50906Are we become barbarians in a morning?"
50906Are you desirous of a reputation for courage?
50906Are you there?--The President of the Executive Committee of the Council of Public Safety-- do you hear?
50906But what other course remained?
50906But will he come?"
50906Can you do this?"
50906Can you,--will you do this?"
50906Could he spring in under the shot?
50906Do we deny it now?"
50906Do you think I am what I am, because I have changed all those minds, or because I best express their views?
50906Do you think there is danger?"
50906Do you think you can hold them?"
50906Had he been hooted or cheered?
50906Had he read deeper into her heart than she herself had dared to look?
50906Have all the Ministers accepted?"
50906Have the people risen?
50906Have we the power?"
50906Have you a bedroom ready?"
50906Have you many non- commissioned officers like that?"
50906He dismissed them from his mind; why should he be always oppressed with matters of fact?
50906He went with them and showed them the way straight enough,--but I bore you?"
50906Her life was ruined,--was he the cause?
50906How could you come alone to such a crowded place at night?
50906How did it sound?
50906How do you know that it will not be reversed, as all others have been?"
50906How far would it carry them, the unborn inhabitants of an embryo world?
50906How much of what he had said had he believed?
50906How would he bear the crushing defeat that had fallen upon them?
50906I should not care to prophesy; but do you wish for it?"
50906I suppose the troops have been ordered to be under arms?
50906I trust you were not hurt in the throng?"
50906If I send for you, you will come?"
50906In the meanwhile, what was there to complain about?
50906Is all well?
50906Is it not so, Princess?"
50906Is it not, Colonel?"
50906Is it strong enough?"
50906Is my carriage there?
50906Is the best of life over?"
50906Is there a man here that has a wound?
50906It is a strange riddle, is it not?"
50906No-- how could there be?"
50906None of the revolutionaries in the city have moved, have they?"
50906Now on what did this system of alliance depend?
50906Now what about the Line regiments in the city?
50906Now, who is to command?"
50906Poor soul, why should she feel the force of the struggles of ambitious men?
50906Probably there will be some street- fighting and some people will be killed, but----""But why should you drive them like this?"
50906She would go and hear him; women went to these meetings; why should she not go, closely veiled?
50906Supposing they could read our hearts for instance?"
50906That was a point; could not tautology accentuate it?
50906The man who had authorised Moret to accept their surrender had power with the crowd; he would be at the Mayoralty,--he must be sent for,--but how?
50906The other members of the deputation had not yet arrived; in the meantime would he take a chair?
50906The struggle, the labour, the constant rush of affairs, the sacrifice of so many things that make life easy, or pleasant-- for what?
50906They crowded round the carriage crying:"What has happened?
50906To hear my speech?
50906Vengeance must be taken; but how?
50906Was it wonderful the people followed him?
50906Was it worth it?
50906Was there no possible way of repairing the harm?
50906We have no news from the Commandant at Turga; who is he?"
50906We should have heard from-- who is it commands the post?"
50906What are we stopping for?"
50906What can I do?"
50906What can we do?"
50906What could I do?
50906What could she do to help him, now that he was so hard pressed?
50906What course shall we adopt?"
50906What day did you say you had arranged it for?"
50906What did he mean?
50906What did she mean?
50906What did you think I meant?"
50906What do I care?
50906What does he care about a community of goods?"
50906What else can we do?
50906What else?"
50906What has happened about the English affair?"
50906What have we done?
50906What if the rebels should see him in mid air?
50906What is that blue one that Sir Richard, the British Ambassador, is wearing?"
50906What is there at Lorenzo?"
50906What is your great inducement to fight?"
50906What is your proposition?"
50906What of him?"
50906What of the night?
50906What was the good of it all?
50906What was there to say?
50906What was this?
50906What, more still, Miguel?"
50906Where can I hide?
50906Where can you find an escort?"
50906Where do I dine to- night?"
50906Where had she been all that terrible night?
50906Where''s that translation of the cipher telegram, Miguel?
50906Which are the worst?"
50906While you are in so good a mood, tell me what has happened; is there danger?"
50906Whither?
50906Who is there will see the matter through,--to the end?"
50906Who was it spoke to them?"
50906Why are you glad that the Admiral and the fleet are prevented from carrying out my orders?"
50906Why did you tell me to come here?"
50906Why have they been firing?"
50906Why is there no news?
50906Why not?"
50906Why should it be necessary to say so?
50906Why should these records, be preserved for the curious eye of unsympathetic posterity?
50906Why should you assail it merely because it does not harmonise with your theories?"
50906Why, what do you mean?"
50906Why?
50906Will you conduct her?"
50906Will you please accompany me to the palace?
50906Will you send the carriage back as soon as you have done with it?
50906Would he be angry or sad or cynical?
50906Would he despair of the movement?
50906Would he ever see her again?
50906Would the men obey the summons?
50906Would you be strong morally or physically?
50906You are not hurt?
50906You think I have paid nothing so far?"
50906You understand the game?"
50906Your husband knows it; why has he not sent you away to the country?"
50906Your speech was useless,--what good could it do?
50906and then, with a hot wave of petulant resolve,"I will do it,--but what?"
50906asked the President;"you have some papers for me?"
50906he said to Sorrento,"what have you done?"
50906when did this come?"
37582After what you must have seen,he asked,"do n''t you agree that there are advantages in keeping in smooth water?"
37582Am I to tell my father what I have promised?
37582And Calder Hall? 37582 And can not one have sympathy with these?"
37582And do you think I am ready now?
37582And if I tell you-- all?
37582And lingers there?
37582And that will be all?
37582And what else?
37582And what speed can you get out of her?
37582And yet you''re not quite satisfied?
37582And you took the excellence of my intentions on trust?
37582And you would not have expected to find him cooking and cleaning engines on a boat like this?
37582And your comrade is with you?
37582And, if it did, you could help us?
37582Are n''t we going slowly?
37582Are n''t you painting her an unusual color? 37582 Are n''t you rash, señor?"
37582Are these things true?
37582Are ye a mechanic then?
37582Are you alone?
37582Are you satisfied?
37582Blanca, will you give Grahame your pistol?
37582But do these talents run in the blood?
37582But has he not some news for us, perhaps?
37582But how did the play go off?
37582But how did you and your father come to meet Mr. Walthew, and what is the_ Enchantress_ doing on the coast?
37582But if it''s no''a watch, what way can I serve ye?
37582But if you like the mountains, could n''t you enjoy them now?
37582But perhaps not a good plotter?
37582But suppose your customers get killed?
37582But this is Rio Frio, is n''t it? 37582 But what about your daughter?"
37582But what is likely to happen to Grahame?
37582But what is the business that makes you so careful?
37582But what''s the news?
37582But when the building is tottering and rotten?
37582But where do you come from?
37582But why did Don Martin send you?
37582But why?
37582But would n''t that have been easier at New Orleans or Galveston?
37582But you do n''t feel it now?
37582Can I get a fresh mule here and perhaps something to eat?
37582Can ye no''talk instead o''glowering like a death''s- head?
37582Can you get her off?
37582Could he pass them by making a round?
37582Did he recognize me?
37582Did n''t you say you might make a short business trip to the West Indies?
37582Did you deliver the President''s despatches?
37582Did you find it hard?
37582Did you tell Mr. Grahame this?
37582Did you think it worth having?
37582Did you think of nothing else?
37582Did you?
37582Do I speak it charmingly?
37582Do n''t they? 37582 Do they talk about me in such places?"
37582Do you expect us to get into any difficulty?
37582Do you know Don Martin Sarmiento?
37582Do you know Señor Gomez?
37582Do you know what his orders to Gomez were?
37582Do you know where he gets it?
37582Do you know where we are?
37582Do you mean Mr. Grahame rather despises money- making?
37582Do you mean that they may let him go?
37582Do you mean to be guided by me?
37582Do you mean to live in Cuba?
37582Do you mean to prevent my going?
37582Do you not think Señor Walthew has answered well?
37582Do you reckon the half- breed pilot meant to pile her up?
37582Do you think I would leave you to get into fresh difficulties? 37582 Do you think the man''s an agent of the government we''re up against?"
37582Do you think the pilot will turn up to take us out then?
37582Do you think we shall meet him?
37582Do you think you can keep that check?
37582Do you want him to come here?
37582Hard? 37582 Has n''t he men enough?"
37582Have n''t you come to a decision rather suddenly?
37582Have you felt this?
37582Have you just come out of one of the rooms?
37582Have you known your partner long?
37582Have you met the gentleman yonder?
37582Have you rested enough? 37582 How did I know?"
37582How did you come to learn Castilian?
37582How do you come to speak English so charmingly?
37582How do you feel about it?
37582How do you feel?
37582How do you_ know_ I have n''t money? 37582 How have you been getting on since we last met?"
37582How heavy is the risk?
37582How it come loose?
37582How long have you called her Evelyn?
37582How much?
37582How will you get across to Jamaica?
37582How''s business?
37582How-- if it was really meant for me?
37582I do n''t understand very much; but who is Don Martin Sarmiento?
37582I suppose if I had done what I was asked and pocketed the reward, I should have met with an accident shortly afterward?
37582I suppose we wo n''t be required to meddle with dago politics?
37582I suppose you are waiting for dinner now?
37582I suppose you do know the place?
37582I suppose you do n''t expect this calm to last?
37582I suppose you mean to start home as soon as you can?
37582I suppose your man will be here in the morning to take us out?
37582I wonder where that path is leading us?
37582I wonder whether there are many of them about? 37582 I wonder why you decided to cross in this little boat, when we could have gone by one of the big passenger liners?"
37582I wonder why you thought I could be trusted?
37582In one act?
37582Is Castillo still at liberty?
37582Is Castillo strong enough to rule your people?
37582Is n''t that a free translation? 37582 It would hurt to find you had been deceived?"
37582Looks very small; I s''pose she''s safe?
37582May I ask how you got that hold?
37582May I ask what you would do with the cases? 37582 May I hope that this adds to your satisfaction?"
37582Miss Cliffe''s boat, is n''t it?
37582Mooning all alone?
37582Must I remind you, señorita, of a little affair at the Hotel International?
37582No sign o''that steamboat yet?
37582No, señor; why should I fear? 37582 Now,"said Macallister,"where did you get the_ anisado_?"
37582One o''they half- dressed hussies from the hotel? 37582 Perhaps you are not using the_ diario_?"
37582Señor Gomez? 37582 Shall we call the boys and put the truck on board?"
37582Shall we look for a seat here? 37582 Shear the flock instead of guarding it?
37582So you have some business here? 37582 So you sailed to look for better fortune somewhere else?
37582Sometimes you are able to send the señora a few dollars?
37582Suppose you go home in twelve months with a profit on the money he gave you?
37582Take me with you, wo n''t you?
37582That is for you to judge, but are you not inconsistent, señorita? 37582 That means the sea- birds, does n''t it?
37582That the people may choose another President? 37582 The quickest road?"
37582The steamer is yours, I suppose?
37582The very small, lead- colored steamer? 37582 Then Calder Hall now belongs to you?"
37582Then are you not afraid of a revolution?
37582Then he is in Havana?
37582Then it''s your honest opinion the thing''s a good business chance?
37582Then perhaps you have heard your father speak of him?
37582Then the_ Enchantress_ is n''t here?
37582Then what do you expect me to do? 37582 Then what is to be done?"
37582Then where has she gone?
37582Then who is Señora Garcia?
37582Then why did you leave her?
37582Then you have a house? 37582 Then, why do you not reform your administration and put in straight men?"
37582This meets with your approval?
37582Tries to fire the mine before things are ready?
37582Was it useful?
37582We must hope our messenger arrives in time to stop him, but for all that----"Do you wish him to come?
37582We seem to be in safe quarters; but how did we get here?
37582Well, what happened afterward?
37582Well?
37582What are they doing at the council?
37582What are they waiting for?
37582What are those marks on your neck?
37582What are we going to do?
37582What could prevent him?
37582What do you know about Calder Hall?
37582What do you mean by that?
37582What do you mean?
37582What do you reckon has been going on inland?
37582What do you think of the other fellow?
37582What do you want?
37582What has that got to do with it?
37582What is it?
37582What is the best?
37582What is the matter?
37582What kind of engines has your boat?
37582What made you get up so soon?
37582What on earth have you been doing?
37582What was in it, then?
37582What was the danger?
37582What would they gain? 37582 What would ye expect?
37582What''s a watch compared with the human body?
37582What''s likely to happen to him if he''s been corralled by the dictator''s rural- guards?
37582What''s that?
37582What''s the fire outside?
37582What''s the lady wanting-- is it her watch mending?
37582What''s your name and business?
37582What''s your opinion? 37582 When do you expect my father?"
37582When do you wish me to start?
37582When shall we reach Rio Frio?
37582When?
37582Where are the others?
37582Where are we now?
37582Where are you going when you leave Havana?
37582Where did this come from?
37582Where is the señor Grahame?
37582Where is the señorita Cliffe?
37582Where kept ye, ye drunken swine?
37582Where were you going and why did you come here?
37582Where''s Walthew?
37582Where''s your partner, and what are the rebel bosses doing now?
37582Which one of you looks after business matters?
37582Who can tell? 37582 Who can tell?"
37582Who comes?
37582Who is Señor Gomez?
37582Who warned you not to call at the_ hacienda_ Perez?
37582Who was that fellow talking to Watson?
37582Why are you amused?
37582Why did you fix on Havana for the wedding?
37582Why did you help Altiera?
37582Why did you hope so?
37582Why did you interfere?
37582Why did you refuse in the beginning?
37582Why do you come in, in this dramatic way?
37582Why should I not go there?
37582Will things be very much better afterward?
37582Will you get down and wait for her?
37582Will you give us your word not to tell any of the President''s supporters that you have met us?
37582Wo n''t you come down and walk to the beach? 37582 Would n''t the small one at the back be safer?"
37582Would that be wise?
37582Would you be safer, señorita, if you got some of your friends to hide you?
37582Yes,said the priest;"but where does the money go?
37582Yes?
37582Yonder, abreast of the mast?
37582You are sure?
37582You bring the goods all right?
37582You come from the Canaries, do n''t you, Miguel?
37582You do not know?
37582You doubt his staying power?
37582You find this amusing?
37582You get bad weather, then?
37582You have learned that she is willing?
37582You know my country?
37582You like a drink?
37582You mean she ran away? 37582 You mend the steamboat screw?"
37582You refuse to seize it?
37582You thought he would come to help you?
37582You understand what you risk by your exactions?
37582Your interest is flattering, señor; but what is it you understand?
37582_ Cariña mia_, how do we know such things? 37582 And when you go to sea?
37582Are n''t you?"
37582Are you content?"
37582Are you hurt?"
37582Are you quite fit to travel?"
37582Are you surprised that I''m a conspirator?
37582At high tide he would have to return to take the boat out of Mangrove Creek; what better place to wait than_ La colina del sol_?
37582But I must ask who gave you the password?"
37582But I suppose you have Don Martin''s permission to be frank with us?"
37582But are you safe here?
37582But did you mean-- if it was not unsafe?"
37582But how did the beginning of the first act strike you?"
37582But how did you come to take a part in this affair?"
37582But may I ask why you object to me?
37582But what turned you against him-- the dash of dark blood?"
37582But where did you get the rose?"
37582But where is its owner?"
37582But why do you think he gave them the_ anisado_ afterward?"
37582But you believed him when he said he did not know where your daughter is?"
37582But you think like Cervantes?
37582Ca n''t you get a move on?"
37582Can not you close your ears?"
37582Can ye no''open the throttle and give her steam?"
37582Did he say they had the deputation arrested and its leader shot?"
37582Do n''t you think you had better tell me what it''s all about?"
37582Do you carry a good cook?"
37582Do you feel up to running the engine, Mack?
37582Do you generally swing round in that alert manner when you hear somebody behind you?"
37582Do you know many of my countrywomen?"
37582Do you want to see him?"
37582Grahame?"
37582Had he betrayed her?
37582Had the wild sea- hawk got her message, and was he already coming to her rescue?
37582Had you never a longing for something different, something out of the usual run?"
37582Have I your promise that you will not try to escape?"
37582Have we no guide except what he says?"
37582Have you been having a good time?"
37582Have you come to tell me that I can go away?"
37582Have you made any plans?"
37582Having brought her to Rio Frio by trickery, why did he wish her father to know that she felt alarmed?
37582How did you get here?"
37582How is Mack to run the boat alone?"
37582How much a day does it cost you to run this ship?"
37582I believe you are to be trusted, señores?"
37582I suppose you mean to marry Miss Sarmiento?"
37582I understand that your father would take you back?"
37582I wonder if I might ask for some supper?"
37582I wonder whether Castillo got away?"
37582I wonder whether you would stay and dine with us this evening?"
37582If so, what was he doing in the_ Enchantress''s_ engine room?
37582If you should meet with any difficulty at Rio Frio, will you send me a message through the man whose name I''ve written down?
37582In the meanwhile, I understand you have decided not to let me have the money that we need?"
37582Is a man''s face a mask?
37582Is it one of the rude stone towers you see pictures of?"
37582Is it safe to take it off?"
37582Is n''t that dangerous?
37582Is one ever satisfied?"
37582Is that a great distinction?"
37582Is there gold worth mining in the country?"
37582It is a big relief to see you safe, but where have you been?"
37582May I point out that in generously offering help you threw in your lot with the Government and made our interests yours?"
37582May I suggest that the concessions we offer you are valuable?"
37582S''pose you''re ready for us?"
37582Suppose he rescued Miss Cliffe, what then?
37582Suppose you get the concession?
37582Then your friends have finished him?"
37582Wait until it''s smooth?"
37582Was it by accident?"
37582Were you scared?"
37582What about the peon?
37582What about your parents?
37582What becomes of it if the thing falls through?"
37582What do you think of trading in?"
37582What do you think your few cases are worth to us?"
37582What do you wish to understand?"
37582What does he say?"
37582What else do you want?"
37582What is the rest?"
37582What led you to this absurd conclusion?"
37582What was the note about?"
37582What you load?"
37582What''s the matter with me, anyhow?"
37582Where are you going?"
37582Who takes care of it while you are away?"
37582Whom am I up against?"
37582Why did n''t they search Sarmiento''s house?"
37582Why did she do so?"
37582Why did she leave Valverde?"
37582Why did you refuse?"
37582Why do you want to go?"
37582Why not wait for a passenger boat?"
37582Will you be here long?"
37582Will you come along?"
37582Will you send him to me?"
37582Will you tie up the animal, Grahame?"
37582Wo n''t the President''s friends suspect?"
37582Would he have that carefree look in, say, two months?
37582Would you like a drink before you start?"
37582You bring the President''s orders?"
37582You do n''t suppose he''d take a hand in a risky job like this entirely for the benefit of the owners?"
37582You hope to go back to San Sebastian some day?"
37582You sneer at romance?"
37582You suggest that the men who came with you from San Lucar have no plans?"
37582You will be here some time?"
37582You would take a risk to rescue him?"
403A carriage?--yes-- and what did you tell him?
403A what?
403All foolishness, eh?
403And Los Bocos-- it is a village, is n''t it, and the landing must be in sight of the Custom- house?
403And after that?
403And are you going to help him?
403And do you think she will be in danger-- any personal danger, if the revolution comes?
403And have you come out of the West, knowing me so well, just to tell me that I am wasting myself?
403And how are the mines progressing, eh?
403And how does this strike you?
403And if the other one, General Rojas, gets into power, will he seize the mines, too?
403And then you headed Granville Prior''s expedition for buried treasure off the island of Cocos, did n''t you?
403And what did you do after Balmaceda was beaten?--after I last saw you?
403And what had I better do?
403And what lies over there?
403And your father?
403Are any of you hurt?
403Are n''t you going to make sure first that Kirkland is on the other side of the fort?
403Are we so near as that?
403Are you from the States?
403Are you going to get yourself into a dress- suit to- night?
403Are you not coming, too?
403But I agree with you about Captain Stuart; only, why is he down here? 403 But do n''t you want to go back?
403But how long have you entertained this feeling for the enslaved Macedonians, Mac?
403But you would n''t mind if we sat it out, would you?
403But, Hope-- Father,said the elder sister, stepping out of the carriage and turning to Mr. Langham,"you did n''t intend that Hope should go, did you?
403Ca n''t you see? 403 Can you fix it on some one that you can fight?"
403Can you tell me who is in command here?
403Captain Burke, I believe?
403Come away; for God''s sake, what are you doing? 403 Could n''t we share it?"
403Did you ever hear of a Mr. Robert Clay?
403Did you ever know me to go into anything of this sort for the sentiment of it? 403 Did you know it?"
403Did you lie to me? 403 Do I look cool?
403Do n''t you live anywhere, Ted?
403Do n''t you think I might see the review if I went on horseback?
403Do the conquering heroes come?
403Do you know we have n''t had anything to eat since yesterday at breakfast?
403Do you mean you do n''t believe that story?
403Do you mean you think they have telegraphed to Los Bocos already?
403Do you remember that chap in the''Last Ride Together''?
403Do you see that long line of lamps off our port bow?
403Do you see these?
403Do you think that driver is taking us the right way?
403Do you think that road- agent will keep his word?
403Do you-- are you interested in that company?
403Does Mr. Clay know that you are?
403Does anybody here know how to gag a man?
403Does n''t it? 403 Does one man and a dance- card and three bonbons constitute your idea of a ball?"
403Does she do that?
403Engineers? 403 Excuse me-- are you the three gentlemen who took her to the yacht?
403Good God, child, have I not enough to answer for without dragging you into this? 403 Got any more?"
403Has anybody any criticism to make?
403Has he?
403Have you got any of them?
403Have you told any one of this?
403He had a shorter run than ours, and he wired you he was ready to start when we were, did n''t he?
403He may not be so bad, after all; and I''ll put Reginald King on your other side, shall I?
403How dare you talk of resigning? 403 How did I treat you abominably?"
403How did you do it? 403 How did you get the Legion of Honor?"
403How do you mean?
403How far,Clay began, in a strained voice,"how far,"he asked, more steadily,"could you trust me?"
403How long?
403How many of Mendoza''s soldiers have we in the mines, Mac?
403How''d you do it?
403I do n''t awe you, do I?
403I know it,said Mendoza;"why should the stock go out of the country when those living here are able to buy it?"
403I left my fan in the carriage-- do you think you could manage to get it for me without much trouble?
403I suppose you know there''s an answer to that, do n''t you?
403I think it''s going to be fine down here; do n''t you, Alice?
403I thought she was n''t coming for a week?
403I told him he was on the road to Los Bocos, and he turned back and--"You are sure he turned back?
403I was always telling him that, was n''t I?
403I wonder if he knows that?
403I''m not asleep,said MacWilliams, sitting up;"what is it?
403Indeed?
403Is Hope with you, is she safe?
403Is it King''s boat? 403 Is it the King I met at dinner that night?"
403Is n''t there some place where we can go to get out of this heat?
403Is not that San Lorenzo?
403Is our Captain Stuart in danger, too?
403Is that all?
403Is there going to be trouble?
403Is there no possible way of getting Hope out of this and back to the Palms?
403Is this mutiny?
403It''s demoralizing, is n''t it?
403Keep back, ca n''t you?
403Mr. Clay,she began abruptly and leaning eagerly forward,"would you think me very rude if I asked you what you did to get all those crosses?
403Mrs. Porter tells me that you know her son George?
403Must we leave him,she pleaded,"must we leave him-- like this?"
403My dear Hope,she said,"is every one to be sacrificed for Madame Alvarez?
403Not going?
403Not in your watch?
403Not working?
403Now then, old man,he demanded briskly,"what''s up?
403Now what would I say to that if I were out?
403Now will you kindly tell me what that was?
403Now, what are you going to do,--make it unpleasant for us and force our hand, or drive down quietly with our friend MacWilliams here? 403 Oh, I do n''t know,"she heard Clay say, doubtfully;"I do n''t have to go just yet, do I?
403Oh, he did, did he?
403Oh, how can you?
403Oh, is that it?
403Oh, is that it?
403Oh, that?
403Oh, you know that, do you?
403Oh, you''re sure of that, are you?
403Really,exclaimed the elder sister,"is n''t he afraid that some one will marry him for his title?"
403Really?
403Say, how long have we got to keep up this fake game?
403Shall I tell him?
403Since eight o''clock?
403Sit down, wo n''t you? 403 So she''s been out every day, has she?
403Supper?
403Suppose they''ve torn the track up?
403Tell me?
403Tell that peon to get my coat, will you?
403Then he does expect trouble?
403Then why did you come?
403Then why does n''t Alvarez pay them?
403Then you''re thinking of turning professional filibuster yourself?
403There were three of us,he said,"and one got shot, and one got married, and the third--?
403There, again, what did I tell you?
403They did, did they?
403They do, eh?
403Was I once like that?
403We have heard of your victories, General, yes,he said;"and on your return you say you found things had not been going to your liking?"
403We''ve no time for girls at present, have we?
403Well, Alvarez can stop that, ca n''t he?
403Well, and now that you have met me,said Miss Langham, looking at him in some amusement,"are you sorry?"
403Well, what is it?
403Well, why not?
403Well, you''re not running the town, too, are you?
403Well,he asked,"is she ready?"
403Well?
403Were you one of those who assisted at that important function? 403 What am I going to do?"
403What am I going to the cuartel for?
403What are we waiting for?
403What are you going to do?
403What are you waiting for?
403What did you say?
403What do you know of me?
403What do you mean by that-- this time?
403What do you mean by that?
403What do you mean to do?
403What do you mean? 403 What do you mean?"
403What do you mean?
403What do you mean?
403What do you think, Alice?
403What does it say?
403What does that mean?
403What does this mean?
403What does this mean?
403What does this mean?
403What does this mean?
403What fault do you find with my surroundings?
403What good can you do your husband here? 403 What have you done so far?"
403What have you got to do with it?
403What is a military dictatorship without soldiers? 403 What is it?"
403What is it?
403What is it?
403What is what?
403What men?
403What shall we do now? 403 What would you have done--?"
403What''s up?
403What?
403What?
403Where are your servants; why are they not here?
403Where did she pick it up?
403Where do you suppose those men sprang from? 403 Where have you been?"
403Where is it now?
403Who answers?
403Who is the leader of the fight against her?
403Who lives?
403Whose carriage is this, and where is it going?
403Why are the men guarding the Palms, and why did you go to the Plaza Bolivar this morning at daybreak? 403 Why are they so good to me?"
403Why are you so good to me? 403 Why did n''t you go?"
403Why did n''t you speak of this sooner?
403Why did you treat me like this? 403 Why do n''t you drive her to the Palms at once?"
403Why do n''t you stop him?
403Why have you no home?
403Why not?
403Why should you turn your back on civilization when it comes to you, just because you''re not going back to civilization by the next steamer? 403 Why, Alice, why not?
403Why, damn you,he cried,"what do you mean?"
403Why, my dear child,said her sister,"you''re not thinking of going with us, are you?"
403Why, old man? 403 Why, what have we to do with all of this?"
403Why?
403Why?
403Why?
403Will you consider it an act of devotion?
403Wo n''t it?
403Wo n''t you take me with you, please?
403Would they fight for me?
403You all right?
403You and Hope all right up there, Clay?
403You are not offended with me?
403You can have another wish, Mac, you know,urged Langham,"ca n''t he, Clay?"
403You got left, did n''t you?
403You have come to finish that story?
403You may smoke, if you choose; and would you like something cool to drink?
403You see nothing in it then,she asked,"but a source of amusement?"
403You taking orders from Mr. Clay, to- day, Captain Stuart?
403You think, then,said Clay,"that if your friends were given an opportunity to subscribe to the stock they would feel less resentful toward us?
403You what--cried Clay,"you resign?"
403You''re not armed, are you?
403You''ve lived abroad yourself; how does it strike you?
403And we wo n''t talk of range finders, will we?
403And wo n''t Alice want her fan?"
403And you never got a cent for it; did you, Burke?"
403And, oh, yes,"Mrs. Porter added,"I''m going to put him next to you, do you mind?"
403Are n''t the men you meet generally audacious?"
403Are n''t you ashamed?"
403Are the gentlemen who want to buy stock in the mine the same men who are in the Senate?
403Are you men all ready down there?"
403Between them-- which will you choose?"
403But I should like to hear the end of that adventure; wo n''t you tell it to me in the other room?"
403But what''s the use?
403But why do you hate yourself?
403Ca n''t he see that the army is with Mendoza?"
403Can not you see it that way, too?"
403Can you make her out, MacWilliams?"
403Can you tell me this, General?
403Captain Stuart?"
403Clay thought,"Why could it not have been the other?"
403Could they tell him if there was any one in the village from whom he could hire a mule, as he must push on to the capital that night?
403Did Alice send you?"
403Did you ever know me to back the losing side?
403Did you hear what he said to- day?
403Did you meet any one on your way?"
403Did you meet with any one on your ride here from Los Bocos?"
403Do I look happy or comfortable?
403Do n''t you remember we measured it when we thought of laying the double track?"
403Do n''t you remember what the President said, that he would trust him with the command of his army?
403Do n''t you see the lighthouse on Cape Bon?
403Do n''t you see what I mean, something crouching?"
403Do you agree with me?"
403Do you expect him here?
403Do you hear?"
403Do you know any of them?"
403Do you know that we are lost?"
403Do you want to go?"
403Does n''t Hope want to come back here and go to sleep?"
403Does n''t she look like a phantom ship in the moonlight?"
403For heaven''s sake, how did it begin?"
403Forgive me, wo n''t you?"
403Go back, or wait here, or run the blockade?"
403Have n''t you seen it yet?
403Have you any further orders for us-- can we deliver any messages to General Rojas?"
403Have you any idea at all where you are?"
403Have you been down in the engine- room yet?"
403Have you been fine, and strong, and sincere?''
403Have you everything you want-- have you your jewels?"
403Have you had one?
403Have you noticed the effect of the moonlight on the walls of the convent?"
403Have you reason to?"
403Have you such a pass?"
403He has done more exciting things--""Who?
403He is not a creature of sentiment; are you, Burke?
403He pulled the card from his coat- pocket and said,"May I have this dance?"
403Her own mind approved, and as her heart was not apparently ever to be considered, who could say that it did not approve as well?
403How can I help you?"
403How do you know I am fitted for anything else but just this?
403How is it you''ve been there, while you have never been in New York?"
403How many have you?"
403How''s your shoulder?"
403I beg your pardon,"he asked, interrupting himself,"does your orderly understand English?"
403I hate balls and dances anyway, do n''t you?
403I like to see a man play his part properly, do n''t you?
403I love to travel, but I do n''t love to travel that way, would you?"
403I suppose you know,"he asked sternly,"that you''re not good enough for Miss Hope?
403I was sent down here to take charge of a mine in active operation, and I find-- what?
403I wish I could just drop in at home about now; do n''t you, MacWilliams?
403If Mr. Clay, for instance, would like her better?
403If he is a gentleman, why is he not in his own army?
403In the name of Liberty now?"
403Is Madame Alvarez on board your ship?"
403Is it explicit?
403Is it fair?"
403Is it very bad?"
403Is n''t she smart- looking?
403Is that it?
403Is that what you mean, damn you?
403Is there going to be trouble?
403It asks what can be expected of a President who is as blind to the dishonor of his country as he is to the dishonor of his own home?"
403It makes them think--""How long did you expect to stay here?"
403It sounds easy, does n''t it?"
403It spoils you for tortillas and rice, does n''t it?
403It was pretty exciting, was n''t it?
403MacWilliams?"
403May I not stay here a little while?"
403Miss Langham has n''t been to the mines but once, has she?"
403More explicit than that?"
403My God, what have I to live for now?"
403Not like the man in''Under Two Flags''?"
403Now, is n''t that much more instructive?"
403Now, who is the Government party?"
403Porter?"
403Send them word to run me down on an engine at five- thirty, will you?
403So, instead of a sharp command, he asked,"What is it?"
403Tell me, did Alice say that?"
403That''s ten per cent on nothing, for the mines really did n''t exist, as far as you were concerned, until we came, did they?
403The friends who help us the most are not always those who consider us perfect, are they?"
403The men who are objecting to the terms of our concession?"
403The sort you pull?"
403There was a pause, and Clay turned his eyes to the street, and then asked, abruptly,"What are you doing now?"
403They will ask you''What have you made of yourself?
403They would think it was fairer to all?"
403To- morrow?
403Was he forced to leave it?"
403We have rich men in Olancho, why should not they benefit first of all others by the wealth of their own lands?
403Were they following us all the time?"
403What can she want here at this hour of the night?
403What do they say about me?"
403What do you mean to do?"
403What do you say, Burke, to taking a ride with me to Stuart''s rooms, and having a talk there with the President and Mr. Langham?
403What do you say?
403What has he done?"
403What have you been doing?"
403What is it?
403What is the matter with you?"
403What possible use could you be to her at such a time?
403What road is this?"
403What will they care whether you built railroads or painted impressionist pictures?
403What will you be to- morrow?
403What would n''t we give to know all this little piece of copper knows, eh?"
403What would you like, MacWilliams?"
403When are you going to take us over the mines?
403When are you going to take us to the mines, for instance, and who was Anduella, the Liberator of Olancho, on that pedestal over there?
403Whenever I am blue or down she makes fun of me, and--""Why should you ever be blue?"
403Where is Miss Hope?"
403Where is she?
403Where''s MacWilliams?
403Who is it that complains of the terms of our concession?"
403Who knows how long the present Government will last?
403Who knows what may not happen in a year?
403Why do n''t you quit him?"
403Why do you hate yourself?"
403Why not?"
403Why should I go?
403Why should he expect a woman to find interest in that hive of noise and sweating energy?
403Why should he take it upon himself to correct a man as old as my father?"
403Why was it not put on the market, that any one might buy?
403Why, I am really much older than he is in everything but years-- why is that?"
403Why?"
403Will you take me there?"
403You do n''t mind, do you?"
403You know that, do n''t you?"
403You wo n''t be lonely, will you?
403You''d like that, would n''t you?"
403You''ll surely come, wo n''t you?"
403You''ve heard of that, have n''t you?"
403asked Clay, smiling--"that I do n''t use the wrong forks?"
403demanded Langham, indignantly,"and starving?
403demanded Stuart, anxiously,"and take her on board the yacht there?
403he demanded, suddenly, looking up at the driver,"are you afraid?"
403said Mr. Langham;"did he take us for highwaymen?"
403she asked;"is anything wrong?"
403they cried;"is he wounded, is he hurt?"
1397And if you die to prove that they make five, will that make them five?
1397And in what respect are you more worthy than we?
1397And what is the natural law?
1397And what is this luminous doctrine that fears the light? 1397 And what right have you, more than we,"said the Imans,"to constitute yourselves the representatives of God?
1397Be it so,replied the legislator;"but if they contradict each other, who shall reconcile them?"
1397Besides, what addition or diminution will it make to our existence, to answer yes or no to all these chimeras? 1397 Besides, why resort forever to incomplete and insufficient miracles?
1397By what right do you constitute yourselves mediators between God and us?
1397Do you love pleasure and hate pain?
1397Farther, what is believing, if believing influences no action? 1397 First, considering the diversity and opposition of the creeds to which you are attached, we ask on what motives you found your persuasion?
1397How dare you speak of morals,answered the Christian priests,"you, whose chief lived in licentiousness and preached impurity?
1397How prove you that?
1397If error has its martyrs, what is the sure criterion of truth? 1397 If his justice,"replied the simple men,"is not like ours, by what rule are we to judge of it?
1397If that law is sufficient, why has he given any other? 1397 If the evil spirit works miracles, what is the distinctive character of God?
1397If the knowledge of these things is so necessary, why have we lived as well without it as those who have taken so much trouble concerning it? 1397 Is it because you pretend to have issued from the head of Brama, and the rest of the human race from the less noble parts of his body?
1397Is it not, then, demonstrated that truth is not the object of your contests? 1397 Is it to you or to God I am to confess?"
1397Is sugar sweet, and gall bitter?
1397Now, tell us, is there a cavern in the centre of the earth, or inhabitants in the moon?
1397We understand them not,said the simple men;"and how came this just God to give you this privilege over us?
1397What, then, is your persuasion to prove, if it changes not the existence of things? 1397 Where is the proof of these orders?"
1397Who is this man,cried all the groups,"who thus insults us without a cause?
1397''Who knoweth,''said he,''the spirit of a man that it goeth upwards?
1397* And is not the testimony of our fathers and our gods as valid as that of the fathers and the gods of the West?
1397* What is a people?
1397*** Of what real good has been the commerce of India to the mass of the people?
1397After reading this performance it will be asked, how it was possible in 1784 to have had an idea of what did not take place till the year 1790?
1397Alas, if man is blind, shall his misfortune be also his crime?
1397Am I not an unbeliever?

1397And do the plants no longer bear fruit and seed?
1397And for what reason are their books to be preferred to ours?

1397And how did its first authors propagate it, when, being alone possessed of it, their own people were to them profane?
1397And if it treats us with forbearance, what authority have you to be less indulgent?
1397And if the first obstacles are overcome, why should the others be insurmountable?
1397And if we should be deceived, how will that just God save us contrary to law, or condemn us on a law which we have not known?"
1397And if, in the anguish of their miseries, they see not the remedies, is it the ignorance of God which is to blame, or their ignorance?
1397And of what concern the subtleties with which their folly torments itself?
1397And the large body said to the little one: Why are you separated from us?
1397And those nations which call themselves polished, are they not the same that for the last three centuries have filled the earth with their injustice?
1397And what action is influenced by believing, for instance, that the world is or is not eternal?"
1397And what is doubt, replied he, that it should be a crime?
1397And what, said I, are those mad animalculae, which destroy each other?
1397And when, after the destruction of crops, famine has ensued, is it the vengeance of God which has produced it, or the mad fury of mortals?
1397And who shall assure us that you are not in error yourselves, or that you will not lead us into error?
1397And who will attest what no one has seen?
1397And will you grant them privileges of belief to our detriment?"
1397And yet, are not these the children of the prophets?
1397And you call God just?
1397And you, learned doctors, we call you to witness; is not this the unanimous testimony of all ancient monuments?
1397And you, rebel and misguided nation, perceive you not that your new leaders are misleading you?
1397And, moreover, why all these laws, and what is the object proposed by them?"
1397And, what do you expect, oh vanquished, from useless groans?
1397Answer, generation of falsehood and iniquity, hath God deranged the primitive and settled order of things which he himself assigned to nature?
1397Are all the nations still in that age when nothing was seen upon the globe but brutal robbers and brutal slaves?

1397Art thou disposed to think that the human race degenerates?
1397Before adopting this doctrine, rather than that, did you first compare?
1397Besides, how can you answer for us?
1397But being born ignorant, is not ignorance a law of nature?
1397But can man individually acquire this knowledge necessary to his existence, and to the development of his faculties?
1397But does not even this prove that our sensations can deceive us respecting the end of our preservation?
1397But does not this necessity of preservation engender in individuals egotism, that is to say self- love?
1397But if a man is born strong, has he a natural right to master the weak man?
1397But is not society to man a state against nature?

1397Disciple of Truth, knowest thou that object?
1397Do such orders exist in nature?
1397Do the mountains withhold their springs?
1397Do the seas no longer emit their vapors?
1397Do thus perish then the works of men-- thus vanish empires and nations?
1397Do you endure the ardor of the sun, and the torment of thirst, to reap the harvest or thrash the grain?
1397Do you give growth to the plants of the earth, that you may waste them?
1397Do you look upon opulence as a virtue?
1397Do you not give them arbitrators?
1397Do you see, said the Genius, those flames which spread over the earth, and do you comprehend their causes and effects?
1397Do you suppose that all men hear equally, see equally, feel equally, have equal wants, and equal passions?

1397Doth sanctity consist in destruction?
1397Everything that tends to preserve, or to produce is therefore a good?
1397From what you say, one would think that poverty was a vice?
1397Give me some examples?

1397Has not God endowed us, as well as him, with eyes, understanding, and reason?
1397Hath God the heart of a mortal, with passions ever changing?
1397Hath heaven denied to earth, and earth to its inhabitants, the blessings they formerly dispensed?
1397Have not virtue and vice an object purely spiritual and abstracted from the senses?

1397If he is just, will he be the accomplice of your crimes?
1397If he likes to believe without examination, must we therefore not examine before we believe?
1397If he wishes to punish, hath he not earthquakes, volcanoes, and thunder?

1397If infinite, can your homage add to his glory?
1397If it be uncertain or equivocal, how is he to find in it what it has not?

1397If the faith of one man is applicable to many, what need have even you to believe?
1397If the law of nature be not written, must it not become arbitrary and ideal?

1397The Bramins stopping short at these words:"How can we admit your doctrine,"said the legislator,"if you will not make it known?
1397The Mussulman, Christian, Jew, are they not the elect children of God, loaded with favors and miracles?
