60305 | But how could she toss aside everything in which she had believed for so long, on an impulse? |
60305 | But... well, tell me, Cholli, how is it done? |
60305 | Could she now betray the weapons that had served her so well and true? |
60305 | Could she turn now to the ways of other women, to dissemble, to shoot wide of the mark and put up a false defense? |
60305 | Had she made it plain to Cholli that only young men would be welcome? |

59157 | Could she be psychic? |
59157 | How''s Linda?" |

60694 | You coming? |
60694 | You think he might be disappointed when he sees me? 60694 Did the cold desert wear the humanity out of a man? 60694 Did you have to slash the bag, too? |

60694 | Is that it, Ben? |
60694 | Is that what you say to a person when you know you''re about to leave them to die? |
60694 | Or was it a shudder? |
60694 | Or was it her imagination? |
60694 | Spacesuit? |
60694 | Was n''t that just like Nora? |
60694 | Was she coming? |
60694 | Was that the dull roar of the storm through her stoppered ears or the rushing of her own blood? |

51286 | I said, where can I find Haron Gorka? |
51286 | Is that in the United States? |
51286 | Now? |
51286 | Ready? |
51286 | Ready? |
51286 | Then is this better? |
51286 | Was this the way? |
51286 | Well, why do n''t you tell me about some of your far travels? 51286 Well?" |
51286 | What about the other five women? |
51286 | What do you mean? |
51286 | What do you mean? |
51286 | What on earth are you doing up? |
51286 | What would you like me to talk about? |
51286 | What''s that? 51286 What''s that?" |
51286 | What? |
51286 | You know him? 51286 You sure?" |
51286 | Are you ready?" |
51286 | But how did you know? |
51286 | Gorka?" |
51286 | Gorka?" |
51286 | Gorka?" |
51286 | Gorka?" |
51286 | Is it-- ah-- a deal?" |
51286 | Making fun of you?" |
51286 | Matilda said,"Beg pardon?" |
51286 | Must you interrupt? |
51286 | That''s what you''re here for, is n''t it?" |
51286 | What say? |
51286 | What then?" |
51286 | What''s the quickest way to get there?" |
51286 | Where can I find him? |
51286 | Where does he live? |
51286 | Where is Herman''s engagement ring?" |

51286 | Why had n''t she thought of it before? |
51286 | You know Haron Gorka?" |
51286 | You know, of course, how frigid Deneb VII is?" |
51286 | You want to hear me talk, do you not?" |
57975 | A short step? 57975 Ah, you think that the late Captain was-- er-- a-- ah-- some good in the world?" |
57975 | And now where is the treasure? |
57975 | Can he live in a house on the land and sail on the sea at the same time? |
57975 | Captain Shannon''s place, eh? |
57975 | Did you note the significance of that? 57975 Did you say-- that you-- er-- found the portrait in a closet-- er-- and went to the trouble of framing it?" |
57975 | Do n''t that beat everything? 57975 Do you like John Silver?" |
57975 | Do you think Ocean View will completely restore your health? |
57975 | Eh? |
57975 | Feeling,--feeling? |
57975 | How do you know it''s just what we want? |
57975 | I suppose it is some years since you knew him? |
57975 | I think he''s just fascinating, do n''t you? |
57975 | I wonder if I''ve got the correct picture in my head of that knight of the waves hanging up in that library? 57975 I wonder if she''s found any more qualities in the old Cap''s picture? |
57975 | I-- er-- do you? |
57975 | Oh does it? |
57975 | So you have pressed Mr. Murphy into service, Joseph? |
57975 | What did I tell yuh? |
57975 | What you say is perfectly correct, but what were you going to say about the treasure? |
57975 | Where is the rest? |
57975 | Who''s goin''to foller me? |
57975 | Why do n''t he live in it himself, then, if it''s such a fine place? |
57975 | Why, Mr. Murphy, do you talk to yourself or are you reading aloud? 57975 Why, ai n''t I?" |
57975 | You remember that I read last night that Captain Shannon had been on Cocos Island? |
57975 | But have you any maps or plans or charts or whatever tells you where to look?" |
57975 | But would n''t you think there would be changes in the shore line since the time this chart was made?" |
57975 | Could it be that this stranger was a spy? |
57975 | Did you mean that you have actually sought a specific treasure?" |
57975 | Did you notice the style of this narrative, Joseph? |
57975 | Do you remember that he said that when he felt he was armed with the sword of the Lord and of Gideon he could face ten thousand foes?" |
57975 | Had he really known the Captain and suspected the existence of the treasure? |
57975 | How did Kate know this neighbor''s name? |
57975 | I do n''t suppose you have ever come across it?" |
57975 | I do n''t suppose you were ever taken that way?" |
57975 | I think it is a remarkable face, do n''t you?" |
57975 | In what direction I''d like to know?" |
57975 | Line for line, ai n''t they?" |
57975 | Murphy?" |
57975 | Now do n''t you think that''s the wisest course to pursue?" |
57975 | Now is n''t there somebody that could handle them Boulbys?" |
57975 | Now you know all about Captain Kidd?" |
57975 | Now, er, well really what is remarkable about the face?" |
57975 | Now, would there be an old iron- bound sea- chest, the kind sailors hide things in, in a corner here?" |
57975 | Page 55--omitted double closing quote added--"... Now you know all about Captain Kidd?" |
57975 | She had so often urged her brother to develop this quality, that now his utter lack of imagination made her reply crisply--"How do I know? |
57975 | Was he going to stay in the vicinity to keep watch upon them? |
57975 | Was n''t it a pity? |
57975 | Was she not in danger by remaining there with a lunatic? |
57975 | What about that chart? |
57975 | What do you think now, Joseph?" |
57975 | What had he been saying? |
57975 | Where was she to begin? |
57975 | Where was the bulk of it? |
57975 | Who''d have thought it? |
57975 | Would he fall from grace if he took a little rest? |
57975 | Would you happen to be fond of flowers, now?" |
57975 | Would you have any idea where he put the money and valuables, if he found them?" |
57975 | Would you tell me something more about him?" |
57975 | Would you-- ah-- could you consider a lodger, madam?" |
57975 | exclaimed Miss Katherine to her brother,"is n''t it delightful to find just what we want with so little trouble?" |
57975 | whispered Mrs. White to herself as she rose on trembling limbs,"what''s she after or is she crazy? |
27071 | Ah, my cousin, Mr. Dockerell,said Mrs. Manson,"you knew him, did you? |
27071 | Am I? 27071 Are you going to the Humphreys to- morrow?" |
27071 | But why ridiculous, Aunt Etta? |
27071 | But, after all, what is that Teachers''Society that Hilda belongs to( Hilda was another niece)"but a Trade Union? |
27071 | Ca n''t she be asked to give up meddling in the parish? |
27071 | Ca n''t you manage to make them decently contented? 27071 Did I?" |
27071 | Do n''t you want the gas lit,''m? 27071 Do you feel that you could tell me about them?" |
27071 | Do you really? 27071 Do you remember you said Charles I. deserved to have his head cut off because he was so stupid, and all the others gushed over him?" |
27071 | Ellen? |
27071 | How are you getting on with your paper, dear? 27071 I just came to say, Why_ are_ you such an idiot?" |
27071 | If there is any difficulty, could not my mother take one of you to- morrow night? |
27071 | If you ca n''t remember, what does it matter? |
27071 | Is it, dear? |
27071 | Me? |
27071 | Now you are happy, are n''t you, Miss Etta? |
27071 | Oh, ca n''t you find anything better to do than that? 27071 Reading Italian, my dear?" |
27071 | The lamp''m,said Annie;"but you do n''t want it for half an hour yet, do you,''m, it''s such a beautiful evening?" |
27071 | Were they? |
27071 | What is it? |
27071 | Whatever I do, I fail; what is the use of my living? 27071 Who do you think has come to live here, Henrietta?" |
27071 | Wo n''t they? |
27071 | Yes, but I think we must leave them to judge what they like to wear; it is not our business really, is it? 27071 Yes, why do you lose your temper like that? |
27071 | After the squalor of lodgings home was pleasant, and her father''s invitation was cordial:"Henrietta, why do n''t you stay with us? |
27071 | And the canary, Miss Etta-- do you remember that? |
27071 | As they said good- night, Louie whispered,"Have you forgiven me, Etty?" |
27071 | Can I be of any help?" |
27071 | Could n''t we call for you? |
27071 | Do you remember Sarah? |
27071 | Do you remember what you did for me in old days? |
27071 | Do you, Etta?" |
27071 | Dockerell?" |
27071 | Edward? |
27071 | Had any of the other Greek philosophers been more humane in their views on slavery? |
27071 | Had she ever really been that queer little girl? |
27071 | He was a commonplace young man, but what did that matter? |
27071 | He''s dead, poor man, had you heard? |
27071 | How can one be so foolish at nearly sixty?" |
27071 | I crushed-- see, what did I crush?--a little teeny- tiny piece of flounce one terrible evening; did n''t I, Henrietta? |
27071 | If her powers had already declined at forty, what was to happen in the twenty years of life that she might reasonably count upon as still before her? |
27071 | If she did not go out to parties, what was she to do? |
27071 | Nursing her mother? |
27071 | Oh, how is it that we''ve got apart?" |
27071 | One evening it came into her head, and she asked her sister,"By the by, who was Henrietta Symons?" |
27071 | Shall I just scratch that out? |
27071 | She was always saying,''Now, who shall we have to dinner? |
27071 | She_ did_ want you so; every time there was a ring it was,''Is that from her?'' |
27071 | The first time this occurred Miranda opened her large eyes very wide and said,"What''s come over my young friend, has it got the hydrophobia? |
27071 | The housekeeping? |
27071 | Then, of course, she could not go alone, and who was to go with her? |
27071 | They managed to construct a sentence for the priest, who was standing nodding by them:"Are there any pretty walks in the neighbourhood?" |
27071 | We''ve always been special, we two, have n''t we, ever since I can remember?" |
27071 | What was it you were going to say?" |
27071 | What was the use of twelve years in which she had sincerely tried to do her best, if she had not built up some little memorial of affection? |
27071 | What were they all so excited about? |
27071 | When she could speak, she said:"Evelyn, do you ever think of our children?" |
27071 | Where did she come from? |
27071 | Where should she live? |
27071 | Where was she to find relief? |
27071 | Where would the church and the poor be without them? |
27071 | Why had God sent her into the world, if she was not wanted? |
27071 | Why should n''t she go for some visits?" |
27071 | Why then, was she attending lectures on Aristotle? |
27071 | Why was Evelyn to have everything and she nothing? |
27071 | Why was I born?" |
27071 | Why, when I was young we should never----""And you do n''t object to their joining Trade Unions?" |
27071 | Why? |
27071 | Would the English ladies and gentlemen care to go? |
27071 | Would you care to talk them over with me after the class?" |
27071 | You see my point, do n''t you?" |
13522 | Advances? 13522 And how about Miss Quincey?" |
13522 | And how is_ Sordello?_he asked, the tone of his inquiry suggesting that there was something seriously the matter with_ Sordello_. |
13522 | And now,said she, pointing as she might have pointed to a monument,"will you kindly tell me the meaning of this?" |
13522 | And when we''ve opened all the doors as wide as ever they''ll go, what then? 13522 And why not for you? |
13522 | Are you sure you are perfectly well? |
13522 | But women must do something-- surely you see the necessity? |
13522 | Do n''t know_ me_, m''m,said Martha soothingly;"seems all of a white swoon, do n''t she?" |
13522 | Do n''t you know me, Jooley dear? |
13522 | Do you know what I would like to do with you, Miss Quincey? |
13522 | Do you mean that you''ll go no further unless you know? |
13522 | Do you mean the arsenic? 13522 Do you mean you are not going back to that place there?" |
13522 | Do you mean-- me then? 13522 Do you not approve of educated women then?" |
13522 | Do you not think the heart-- the heart is a little--? |
13522 | Do you realize what this means? 13522 Equal chances? |
13522 | Have you got a headache, Miss Quincey? |
13522 | How could you have it--''out with him''? |
13522 | How do you know? |
13522 | How will he receive me? |
13522 | Jooley-- Jooley-- don''t you_ know_ me? |
13522 | Juliana-- you do n''t mean to tell me that he invited himself? |
13522 | Nature? |
13522 | Oh, I am sure-- Do you mean Miss Cursiter? |
13522 | She? 13522 That''s hardly a thick enough wrap for this weather, is it?" |
13522 | The future? 13522 The system? |
13522 | Then is n''t it almost time that you should see one now? |
13522 | Well,she asked,"it_ is_ overwork, is n''t it?" |
13522 | What am I thinking of? 13522 What does that mean, Martha?" |
13522 | What if I did? 13522 What indeed? |
13522 | What should he come for? |
13522 | What''s wrong? |
13522 | What,said Miss Quincey,"do you not believe in equal chances for men and women?" |
13522 | What? 13522 Why, Laura?" |
13522 | Will you tell me the meaning of this? 13522 Will you-- will you want to see me again?" |
13522 | Would you? 13522 You are not worrying about St. Sidwell''s-- about your work?" |
13522 | You will look after her well, will you not? |
13522 | You, dear child? 13522 _ Your_ invitation? |
13522 | Again? |
13522 | And do you always know a St. Sidwell''s woman when you see one?" |
13522 | And do you feel it just here?" |
13522 | And had the hint implied that for the future all accounts with him were closed? |
13522 | And what if it were so?" |
13522 | And when they''re faint and weary with their day''s work?" |
13522 | Any system that unfits them for their proper functions--""And do we know-- have we decided-- yet-- what they are?" |
13522 | Are you going to turn your back on us?" |
13522 | But how was Juliana to know that? |
13522 | Cautley?" |
13522 | Did she know? |
13522 | Did she not know, she too, that the dream is the reality? |
13522 | Do n''t we give the same test papers to everybody?" |
13522 | Do you have creeps all down your back? |
13522 | Do you know what I''m going to be some day, when she''s married and gone away? |
13522 | Do you see_ her_?" |
13522 | Flighty? |
13522 | Flighty? |
13522 | Flighty? |
13522 | Had her aunt carried out her dreadful threat of giving him a hint to send in his account? |
13522 | Had n''t you better see"--she hesitated-- pausing with unwonted delicacy for her words--"a doctor?" |
13522 | He was the sort of man that any woman-- But who would have thought it of Miss Quincey? |
13522 | I thought you doctors were never happy until you''d found some mare''s nest in people''s constitutions? |
13522 | I''m so tired of hogsheads; may n''t it be firkins this time?" |
13522 | Is that the case?" |
13522 | It_ is_ a half- holiday?" |
13522 | Lost your self- respect, have you? |
13522 | Miss Quincey-- so they had let her come to this among them all? |
13522 | Miss Quincey-- when you like anything very much-- or any_body_--it does n''t matter which-- do you turn red all over? |
13522 | Moon and been received with crushing hostility? |
13522 | Moon observed suddenly one morning,"if that man is going to let his bill run on to the day of judgment?" |
13522 | Moon seemed to be permanently displeased)--"whatever possessed you to make such an exhibition of yourself? |
13522 | Not me?" |
13522 | On a half- holiday? |
13522 | Or had Martha permitted herself to say that she, Miss Quincey, was out when perhaps he knew for a positive fact that she was in? |
13522 | She did n''t see my verses, did she? |
13522 | She had, she was afraid that so much poison--"Poison?" |
13522 | She remembered-- things that he had said to her-- did they mean that he had seen? |
13522 | So he was coming again, was he? |
13522 | Stirred by a faint_ esprit de corps_ Miss Quincey asked him if he did not believe in the open door for women? |
13522 | Suppose you do away with it-- do away with every woman''s college in the kingdom-- have you anything to put in its place?" |
13522 | The question for me is-- how long am I to let her hamper our future?" |
13522 | Then when he met her again he would ask,"Have you been taking any more Browning, Miss Quincey?" |

13522 | Too late? |
13522 | Was it her fancy, or did his manner imply that he wanted to sink that humiliating episode of the tea- party and begin again where they had left off? |
13522 | Was the system so far in accordance with Nature that it was careless of the single life? |
13522 | Were they really, as Bastian Cautley put it, so engrossed in producing a new type that they had lost sight of the individual? |
13522 | What did he say to Miss Vivian then? |
13522 | What would my pupils do, and what would Miss Cursiter say?" |

13522 | Why, what would a procession be like without Miss Quincey to enliven it? |
13522 | You do n''t imagine he comes for the pleasure of seeing_ you_?" |
13522 | You really are getting strong again, are n''t you?" |
13522 | You''re just hysterical, and you just want--?" |
13522 | You''re not overdoing it, I hope?" |

32135 | Besides, there are very likely to be two, three, four, or more daughters in a house; how could a man of moderate means save for all of them? |
32135 | But how far love is to blame for these strange attractions, who can tell? |
32135 | But if the one be a blank, will that prove the other a prize? |
32135 | But if we are not sick, why should we take medicine? |
32135 | But there is no necessity for this insane competition; and why provide an unusual and special remedy for what is purely optional? |

32135 | Do we fear death? |
32135 | Do we fear that our work is beyond our strength? |
32135 | Do we not even put our rulers through a course of hand- shaking in order to divest them of any respect the office might bring? |
32135 | Do we think that God will not keep His word? |

32135 | If her husband tolerates the pretty woman''s vagaries, what right have I, what right has any one, to say a word about her?" |
32135 | If it were a matter of catechism, how many educated women would be capable of nursing good- naturedly for weeks a fretful, sick child not their own? |

10548 | ''Forgot? 10548 ''Is it quite open?'' |
10548 | A board? |
10548 | A cartel? |
10548 | Ah, Mademoiselle, what poet taught you that? |
10548 | Ah, so that is what you two have been conspiring over? 10548 And that is--?" |
10548 | And you really need me to point out how prettily those turtles were befooling you? |
10548 | Anything wrong? |
10548 | Are you quite sure last night did, not over- tire you? 10548 As you say,''to the dogs''hein? |
10548 | But do n''t you see that we prisoners are-- forgive me-- just like women? 10548 But had he nothing to say at the time?" |
10548 | But if you love me? |
10548 | But why could n''t we? |
10548 | But why could n''t we? |
10548 | But why? 10548 But you?" |
10548 | But, surely the note itself would not be called for? |
10548 | But,urged Dorothea,"could n''t we tell the truth of what happened without anyone''s wanting to know more? |
10548 | By the way,Dorothea asked, after a short pause,"what is happening at''The Dogs''tonight? |
10548 | C''est son_ gilet_--his little Waistcoat-- Ã chauffer la poitrine--"Des visiteurs, dit il? 10548 Can we see him?" |
10548 | Can you guess who sent me that story? |
10548 | Dead? |
10548 | Dites donc, mon petit,--but the cheerful epithet he bestowed on Raoul is unquotable here--"Elle ne fume pas, votre Anglaise? |
10548 | Do they suffer much in these winters? |
10548 | Do you know him? |
10548 | Do you know the air? 10548 Do you know?" |
10548 | Do you think we can entertain at dinner next Wednesday? 10548 Do? |
10548 | Eh? 10548 Eh? |
10548 | Eh? |
10548 | Eh? |
10548 | Eh? |
10548 | Eh? |
10548 | For that poor fellow Raoul? |
10548 | Forgot? 10548 Has anyone thought of sending for Doctor Ibbetson? |
10548 | Have they sent for Mudge? |
10548 | Have you burnt the note? |
10548 | I am sure, sir, I could not guess, even if I possessed--"A board, for example? |
10548 | I take, you must know, a somewhat broad view on such matters-- may I, without offence, term it a liberal one? 10548 I-- ah-- beg your pardon?" |
10548 | In love--she smiled, but passing faintly--"it''s the little things, is it not? |
10548 | Indeed, Miss? |
10548 | Indeed? 10548 Is it highway robbery? |
10548 | Is it that which has annoyed General Rochambeau? |
10548 | Know him? 10548 May I ask you if you seriously propose to familiarise Axcester with all the orgies of a Continental Sabbath? |
10548 | Miss Westcote is not dancing tonight? |
10548 | My dear Dorothea, are you quite insane? |
10548 | Next Wednesday? |
10548 | Oh, what is that to me? |
10548 | Really, after the request I was obliged to make to Narcissus last night-- you were present, I believe? 10548 So M. Raoul has been telling you all about us?" |
10548 | So here is the source of your inspiration? 10548 The concert, for instance?" |
10548 | The guests, do you mean? |
10548 | Tired, Miss? |
10548 | To whom were you talking? |
10548 | To whom were you talking? |
10548 | Was Zeally mounting guard tonight? 10548 Well,"demanded Narcissus, after exchange of greetings,"and what did he say about the drawings?" |
10548 | Were you the gentleman she danced with, at''The Dogs,''the night of the snowstorm? |
10548 | What does it mean? |
10548 | What has happened? 10548 What was she saying?" |
10548 | What will you do? |
10548 | Will you remember your promise, Monsieur, and allow me to examine a little more closely? 10548 You do n''t mean to say that Zeally suspects you?" |
10548 | You do not agree with my view? |
10548 | You have made all arrangements, of course? |
10548 | You have not seen it since the decorations began? 10548 You have not seen the Orange Room, Miss Dorothea?" |
10548 | You know M. Raoul? 10548 You know, of course, sir,"Endymion Westcote addressed the prisoner coldly,"to what such a confession commits you? |
10548 | You like it? |
10548 | You prefer that he should be fetched at once? |
10548 | You say my brother is at''The Dogs,''Monsieur? 10548 You will not help me, then?" |
10548 | You wish, of course, to see him alone together? |
10548 | _''Mais quel rapport y a- t- il? 10548 ''Bacchus and Ariadne''? 10548 --he gave Endymion his full title--My dear sir, this is indeed-- And Miss Westcote?" |
10548 | After a pause she added:"I suppose you''d like me to go now? |
10548 | Am I to show him in?" |
10548 | An_ Ovid_? |
10548 | And Dorothea? |
10548 | And now, how about me? |
10548 | And seeing your brother admired by all, so strong and prosperous and confident, can I ask that he should feel as we who have forfeited these things?" |
10548 | And this next? |
10548 | And to whom, General, are we indebted for this-- ah-- treat?" |
10548 | And you wo n''t sit up late and set fire to the house? |
10548 | Are you not dancing tonight?" |
10548 | Before luncheon? |
10548 | But had she been wholly wrong? |
10548 | But how was I to guess?" |
10548 | But my grandmother was a Frenchwoman, and that gives me a kind of-- sympathy, shall we say? |
10548 | But what are you doing to the book?" |
10548 | But what difference could its ending make? |
10548 | But what then was it? |
10548 | But why were they, all so darkly terrible? |
10548 | But, as Shakespeare says,''What''s in a name?'' |
10548 | Can love( she had asked) draw near and pass and go its way unrecognised? |
10548 | Come now-- as Commissary, what''ll you take to work it for us? |
10548 | Could n''t the drawings be conveyed to him, in due form, through the Commandant of the Prison? |
10548 | Could she not in some way add to their comfort, or their pleasure? |
10548 | Did he talk of Avignon, for instance? |
10548 | Did you tell it for me?" |
10548 | Does one hear of any surviving? |
10548 | Eh? |
10548 | Endymion?" |
10548 | For whom but my brother would these poor men have worked as they did upon the Orange Room-- and all to show their gratitude? |
10548 | Forgot the drawings? |
10548 | Forgot your_ parole? |
10548 | Had she, being young, been afraid to die? |
10548 | Have you brought the India- ink?" |
10548 | He has not been complaining, I trust?" |
10548 | He picks up a few shillings by painting portraits; but you English are shy of sitting-- I wonder why? |
10548 | He rubbed his head, and added with a twinkle:"Why, what have you been doing?" |
10548 | Her husband will have just ground for complaint, and it might-- I need not point out-- be a little awkward, eh?" |
10548 | Here came the coach-- did it hold a letter for Raoul? |
10548 | How could you do it? |
10548 | How could you? |
10548 | How could you?" |
10548 | How it brings up old school- days At Winchester-- old swishings, too, General, hey?" |
10548 | How many would you guess, now?" |
10548 | I hope, by the way, you have brought a great- coat?" |
10548 | I suppose, now, there was nothing between him and that girl Polly? |
10548 | Is a poor lady''s heart to be in combustion for a while and then-- pf!--the flame expelled at a blast, with all that fed it? |
10548 | Is he-- is M. Raoul outside?" |
10548 | Is it possible that I failed to make plain my distaste?" |
10548 | Is it wicked?" |
10548 | My brother, sir,"she turned to Raoul,"has no conscience when once set going on his hobby; for, of course, you were discussing the pavement?" |
10548 | No doubt, you and Miss Westcote would prefer to break the good news to him in private? |
10548 | No? |
10548 | Now if your sweetheart--""Who told you I had one?" |
10548 | Of what? |
10548 | Perhaps you can suggest a more suitable one?" |
10548 | Raoul!--to M. Raoul? |
10548 | Raoul?" |
10548 | Still, that scarcely explains--""And you will be good, and take your meals regularly when Mudge beats the gong? |
10548 | Time went on, repeating these assemblies; and the question became, Will they ever marry? |
10548 | What are you doing?" |
10548 | What became of his happy colonists in the end? |
10548 | What does Milliton say?" |
10548 | What have we here? |
10548 | What have you been eating?" |
10548 | What in the name of wonder could the fellow have to discuss with you at that hour? |
10548 | What is it?" |
10548 | What is that? |
10548 | What so easy now as to suspect the two women who were never known to buy either bread or butcher''s meat? |
10548 | What''s his name?" |
10548 | What? |
10548 | Who could have guessed that this quiet spinster, who, as a rule, held herself and walked so awkwardly, would prove the best partner in the room? |
10548 | Why did he do it?" |
10548 | Will you step into the surgery, Miss Westcote?" |
10548 | Would you wish me to stay here, or to come with you?" |
10548 | Would_ her_ letter never arrive? |
10548 | Yes, it has happened to you; but why? |
10548 | You do not know that we have a genius at work on the painting?" |
10548 | You have come for a book? |
10548 | You will, perhaps, wish to consult your brother though?" |
10548 | You wo n''t be wanting your hair done to- night?" |
10548 | You, a woman of thirty- eight( or is it thirty- nine? |
10548 | _ Nom de tonnerre_, what had he done? |
10548 | how?" |
22047 | Am I called an Old Maid? |
22047 | Baby loves her mother, does n''t she? 22047 But is this your view of what is right?" |
22047 | Can you fall in love to order? |
22047 | Can you tell me why such a bitter experience should have been sent to me so early in life? |
22047 | Did you ever read such foolishness? |
22047 | Did you love him then so much? |
22047 | Do you suppose any of them withhold anything from such a fear? |
22047 | Do you suppose it is possible for a man ever to thoroughly understand a woman? |
22047 | Do you think so? |
22047 | Do you think-- you know me better than any one else does-- do you think_ I_ could, if I gave my whole mind to it? |
22047 | Honest and manly enough to confess myself a rascal? 22047 How came you to love such a weak man?" |
22047 | I am honest,say they,"so you must not be offended, but is it true that your grandfather was hanged for being a pirate?" |
22047 | I dare say you are right, but what am I to do? |
22047 | I suppose you have heard the news, have n''t you? |
22047 | I suppose you have tried to love your husband? |
22047 | Is n''t it horribly immoral in me to sit here and talk in this way about a married man? 22047 Is n''t it strange to see the kind of men who love clever women like you? |
22047 | Is that really so? |
22047 | Look at his chin,said Rachel;"could a man be strong with a chin like that?" |
22047 | My dear Pet,I exclaimed,"what is the matter?" |
22047 | Noble? 22047 Now, what ailed them all? |
22047 | Oh, Ruth, how could I? |
22047 | Oh, must you go? 22047 Tell Louise? |
22047 | Tried? 22047 Well, may I talk to you? |
22047 | What are a man''s debts of honor? |
22047 | What did I tell you? |
22047 | What do you mean? |
22047 | What if you should be run over and killed,she says,"or should faint away in church? |
22047 | What''s the use of being engaged to a man that you can keep on hand without? |
22047 | Why are n''t women the choosers? |
22047 | Why ca n''t clever women marry, and make just as good wives as the others? 22047 Why do n''t you ask me why I said that?" |
22047 | Why do n''t you talk this over with your husband? |
22047 | Why mention blame in connection with yourself? 22047 Why, child, how old are you?" |
22047 | Why, my dear Pet,I said in an unguarded moment,"which do you love?" |
22047 | Why_ do n''t_ you marry somebody? |
22047 | ''Why do you shine so?'' |
22047 | ''Why do you spit at me?'' |
22047 | ( Query, but is it constancy where there is no temptation to be fickle?) |
22047 | A pretty box, so that one who runs may read? |
22047 | And did n''t Grace Beck''s airs with Mr. Whitehouse amuse you? |
22047 | And whenever he said anything, I could look innocent and say,''Is that Platonic friendship?'' |
22047 | Are n''t girls queer? |
22047 | Are you quite sure that foolish notion is out of your head too? |
22047 | But I like honesty myself, do n''t you?" |
22047 | But could you make her lover believe that? |
22047 | But did you ever consider what an honor the love of such a man as your husband is? |
22047 | But do you realize how I should insult her if I went to her? |
22047 | But does n''t it seem to you that people marry from very mixed motives? |
22047 | But he does n''t care, so why should I? |
22047 | But how could I? |
22047 | But why? |
22047 | But, then, does n''t every one who marries at all, Jew or Gentile, black or white, bond or free, make an experiment? |
22047 | But, with so many different kinds of women, how is a man to know anything?" |
22047 | By the way, did you notice how red Frankie Taliaferro''s eyes were last night? |
22047 | Can you form any idea of how I felt? |
22047 | Can you picture the thing to yourself? |
22047 | Could anybody under heaven be noble with such a name as Flossy? |
22047 | Did you ever hear of such impertinence? |
22047 | Did you ever notice, when he talks, how Rachel turns her head away? |
22047 | Do I seem old to you, kitty? |
22047 | Do I want to just sit still and watch myself turn? |
22047 | Do n''t you consider him odd? |
22047 | Do n''t you think I''m sensible?" |
22047 | Do n''t you think it has a lonesome sound to- night? |
22047 | Do n''t you think that was noble? |
22047 | Do you imagine that Biology kills blushing in a woman? |
22047 | Do you know how he is admired by great men? |
22047 | Do you remember this, from Beaumont and Fletcher,"''Of all the paths that lead to woman''s love Pity''s the straightest''? |
22047 | Do you suppose because I know Greek that I can not be in love? |
22047 | Do you suppose because I went through higher mathematics that I never pressed a flower he gave me? |
22047 | Do you suppose for an instant that you could continue to deceive her after you were married? |
22047 | Fallen into it? |
22047 | Frost, have n''t you? |
22047 | God bless me, what have I done? |
22047 | Has any trouble come between you? |
22047 | How bored Asbury looked, did n''t he? |
22047 | How can I tell her?" |
22047 | How can any one be happy in looking back? |
22047 | How can girls of my sort love so hopelessly beneath us? |
22047 | How can you have the courage to shut out love? |
22047 | How can you see the happiness of all your friends and not want a share of it yourself? |
22047 | How could I? |
22047 | How could anybody who knew all about it? |
22047 | How could even Charlie Hardy so persistently misunderstand the grandeur of Louise King? |
22047 | How dare men and women trifle with the Shekinah of their lives? |
22047 | I am sorry for Brandt, too, for he honestly loved Alice and might have proved the hundredth man-- who knows? |
22047 | I could love one I was proud of, or afraid of, but one I pitied? |
22047 | I exclaimed, now really worried,"what is it?" |
22047 | I read them, I fairly study them, so that it shall not escape me; but, if it does come out, what shall we do for Nellie? |
22047 | I say, how can you not tell her?" |
22047 | I suppose you can look back ages and ages and remember when you had lovers, ca n''t you? |
22047 | I''d take it off and show it to you, only I think it would look rather pronounced, do n''t you?" |
22047 | I? |
22047 | If she did n''t want me I could come back, but what if she did want me and I was not there? |
22047 | Is it strange that I like Percival? |
22047 | Is n''t it rich? |
22047 | Is n''t she the prettiest thing you ever saw? |
22047 | Is n''t that sweet of her? |
22047 | Is n''t your love sweeter and truer for having grown and expanded? |
22047 | Is there some one you love? |
22047 | May I tell you about it? |
22047 | Most of all, why do I ever try to keep a secret?" |
22047 | Mr. Norris Whitehouse is a great friend of yours, is n''t he? |
22047 | Names? |
22047 | Nice state of affairs, is n''t it?" |
22047 | No? |
22047 | No? |
22047 | No? |
22047 | No? |
22047 | Now, which would you take?" |
22047 | Oh, I am going too far, am I? |
22047 | Or have you forgotten? |
22047 | Rich, is n''t it? |
22047 | Ruth, Ruth, what was the matter with it?" |
22047 | Ruth, were you ever in love?" |
22047 | Ruth, what is that woman made of?" |
22047 | Sallie Cox? |
22047 | Should_ you_ feel that way? |
22047 | Sister says bad things to poor sick mamma, and mamma ca n''t love her, can she? |
22047 | So when I met Payson, I said,''What do you say to a Platonic friendship?'' |
22047 | Still, how can they help it at times?" |
22047 | Supposing she found out afterwards, then what? |
22047 | Surely it must be for my husband?" |
22047 | Tabby, did you ever hear me speak of Charlie Hardy? |
22047 | Tabby, did you ever? |
22047 | Tell me,_ do_ you know?" |
22047 | That is high treason, is n''t it? |
22047 | The next day the man wishes he were well out of it, I suppose?" |
22047 | Then you do not blame me?" |
22047 | Then, after she told me that she loved me, how could I tell her that, in spite of what I had said, I was engaged to another girl? |
22047 | They are not all in the japanned box, are they? |
22047 | They would have admired you in dumb silence, until they grew tired of feeling your superiority; after that-- what?" |
22047 | This grieves her wofully, but leaves her with no mode of redress, for who dare offer balm to wounded vanity? |
22047 | VI THE LONELY CHILDHOOD OF A CLEVER CHILD"Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood?... |
22047 | Was he realizing that he had helped to shatter his ideals with his own hand? |
22047 | Was it a weakness in him? |
22047 | Was n''t Brian Beck dreadful, and did n''t you think you would go to sleep under Frank Mayo''s stories? |
22047 | What am I talking about? |
22047 | What boots it if the laughter is a trifle hollow? |
22047 | What has she done to me? |
22047 | What is his unworth compared with your worth? |
22047 | What is it, Ruth?" |
22047 | What news?" |
22047 | What will such men have to answer for? |
22047 | Whatever possessed him to say such a thing? |
22047 | Who knows? |
22047 | Who would think that that bright, saucy, clever little flirt, who rides on the crest of the wave always, could have such a heart history? |
22047 | Why ca n''t people let me alone, and why do n''t I let them alone? |
22047 | Why ca n''t you be satisfied to have some of them friends, and not all sweethearts?" |
22047 | Why change? |
22047 | Why do women of great intelligence, of intellect even, blush with pleasure at the implication of youth? |
22047 | Why do you cry so, my dear? |
22047 | Why have I never thought of it before? |
22047 | Why is it that all the brightest men we know have selected girls who looked pretty and have coddled them? |
22047 | Why is it that everybody gives mamma and the baby so much love, when they never cared for it, and I care so much and never get a single bit? |
22047 | Why is it that men expect an old sweetheart to take an active interest in their bride- elect, and are so deadly sure that they will like each other?) |
22047 | Will it hurt you?" |
22047 | Would n''t she have thought I was a rascal? |
22047 | Would you want it to? |
22047 | Yes-- how- de- do, Miss Culpepper? |
22047 | Yet how could such a glorious girl imagine herself in love with nice, weak, agreeable Charlie Hardy? |
22047 | You can remember when Missis received love- letters, ca n''t you? |
22047 | You have seen Sallie Cox, have n''t you? |
22047 | You know the story of the Whitehouse money, do n''t you? |
22047 | You know why she hates me, and understand why she treats me so abominably? |
22047 | Your honor is involved in this, is it? |
22047 | _ Are_ you poorer for having loved him? |
22047 | _ Then_ who''ll help you out?" |
22047 | and their letters-- must they too be destroyed? |
22047 | she cried,"did I frighten you? |
22047 | what is the matter?" |
22047 | who would have suspected that she had such a worthy motive for her ball? |
31266 | ( ARTHUR_ goes briskly for the cane, and she hits the desk with it._) Arthur, surely that terrifies you? |
31266 | ( MISS SUSAN''S_ rapt face alarms her._) Oh, Susan, was he as dreadful as that? |
31266 | ( MISS SUSAN_ gathers her knitting, looks at_ PHOEBE,_ and is preparing to go._) You are not going, ma''am, before you know what it is? |
31266 | (_ As if_ VALENTINE_ were present._) Oh, sir, how dare you look so pityingly at me? |
31266 | (_ Breaking down._) Susan-- his arm-- have you seen? |
31266 | (_ Brushes carpet._) Sergeant, I am wishful to scold you, but would you be so obliging as to stand on this paper while I do it? |
31266 | (_ But he is very determined, and she is afraid of him._) Will you excuse me, sir, while I talk with Susan behind the door? |
31266 | (_ But he knows, and he turns away his face._) Are you laughing, sir? |
31266 | (_ Eagerly_) Now, Phoebe, what is it you have to tell me? |
31266 | (_ Eagerly_) Sergeant, who? |
31266 | (_ Passionately._) Sister, am I as changed as he says I am? |
31266 | (_ Remembering how strange boys are._) Was it for the honour of the school? |
31266 | (_ She has to ask him the ten years old question._) Do you opinion that this makes her action in allowing it less reprehensible? |
31266 | (_ She reclines._) But tell me, is not Miss Phoebe to join us? |
31266 | (_ What is it that_ MISS PHOEBE_ begins to see as she sits there so quietly, with her hands pressed together as if upon some treasure? |
31266 | (_ Wistfully._) May I stand beside you, Miss Susan? |
31266 | A bride? |
31266 | A gentleman of this town enlisted? |
31266 | A soldier? |
31266 | Am I dashing, Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | Am I not the ideal recruit, ma''am: a man without a wife or a mother or a sweetheart? |
31266 | Am I then to understand that you had foreseen it all, Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | Am I to understand, sir, that you are intimating disparagement of the moon? |
31266 | And did-- did I amuse you also? |
31266 | And how could you acquaint him with this poor sport? |
31266 | And how do you find Miss Livvy, sir? |
31266 | And if he refuses? |
31266 | And my other friends, I hope I find them in health? |
31266 | And that I am not a garden? |
31266 | And who was Livvy? |
31266 | And you and Miss Susan will write to me when occasion offers? |
31266 | Are they paying you no attentions, my dear? |
31266 | Are they the world, Susan, or is there anything beyond them? |
31266 | Are we so disagreeable that no one will dance with us? |
31266 | Are you angry with me, Miss Livvy? |
31266 | Are you ashamed of yourself? |
31266 | Are you implicating, ma''am, that I have a follower? |
31266 | Are you laughing, sir? |
31266 | Arthur, why did you fight with that street boy? |
31266 | Because I have had to work so hard,--is it a crime when a woman works? |
31266 | Because I have tried to be courageous-- have I been courageous, Susan? |
31266 | Because your face was wet? |
31266 | Both, ma''am? |
31266 | But I do n''t, do I? |
31266 | But oh, sister, I am sure they suspect, else why should they be here? |
31266 | But she remembers, and how often do you think the shameful memory has made her face wet since? |
31266 | But the gentleman recruit? |
31266 | Can it be our old pupil-- Ensign Blades? |
31266 | Cloak? |
31266 | Dear Phoebe Throssel, will you be Phoebe Brown? |
31266 | Did I? |
31266 | Did Miss Phoebe say that? |
31266 | Did his eyes flash fire? |
31266 | Did you surmise it was something else? |
31266 | Did you? |
31266 | Do you foresee the cobwebs gathering and gathering, Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | Do you propose making a long stay in Quality Street, ma''am? |
31266 | Do you refer, Miss Susan, to V. B.? |
31266 | Do you remember, Patty? |
31266 | Do you think he was quizzing me? |
31266 | Do you think so, Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | Do you wish to be caned? |
31266 | Father says, will you or wo n''t you? |
31266 | Fifteen years, and still you are hopeful? |
31266 | For King and Country, ma''am? |
31266 | Going away? |
31266 | Good God, ma''am, is it possible? |
31266 | Good God; but why? |
31266 | HARRIET_ has a moment''s hope._) How do you do, sir? |
31266 | Have you ever seen a vivandiere, sir? |
31266 | Have you one for me, Miss Susan? |
31266 | He does not know? |
31266 | He is infatuate----(_ She hesitates._) Sister, you are not partial to him still? |
31266 | How do you do, sir? |
31266 | How do you do, sir? |
31266 | How do you do? |
31266 | How do you do? |
31266 | How do you find yourself, dear Miss Livvy? |
31266 | How do you think she is looking? |
31266 | How is Mary, Fanny? |
31266 | I am exceedingly funny at times; am I not, Susan? |
31266 | I ask your pardon? |
31266 | I conceive it to be a nervous disorder? |
31266 | I had not meant to speak of it, but why should not I? |
31266 | I hear Miss Livvy is indisposed? |
31266 | I never look at it but I say to myself,''Who is to be the lucky man?'' |
31266 | I suppose men are like that? |
31266 | If he had really had one, think you I could have been so wicked as to personate her? |
31266 | Is it sport to wish she may be my wife? |
31266 | Is it that Miss Livvy is an obstacle? |
31266 | Is it that you desire to make sport of me? |
31266 | Is it true that the Corsican Ogre eats babies? |
31266 | Is not that it? |
31266 | Is she asleep? |
31266 | Is she gone? |
31266 | Is she very poorly, sir? |
31266 | Is that what you think I am doing, Miss Willoughby? |
31266 | Is that you, Aunt Susan? |
31266 | Is there some mystery about Miss Livvy? |
31266 | Is this right, Phoebe? |
31266 | Latin-- shall we say algebra?'' |
31266 | Latin? |
31266 | Lost? |
31266 | Luck? |
31266 | Ma''am, may I have the honour? |
31266 | Ma''am, tell me, do you think there is any hope for me? |
31266 | May I ask, ma''am, what you mean by an obstacle? |
31266 | May I go in to see her? |
31266 | May I say there are differences of opinion about it? |
31266 | May I sit on this chair, Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | May I solicit of you, Miss Susan, is Captain Brown Miss Livvy''s guardian; is he affianced to her? |
31266 | May I solicit, sir, for how long you have been attached to Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | May I take you to some very agreeable ladies? |
31266 | Miss Livvy, do you think there is any hope for me? |
31266 | Miss Livvy, ma''am, what is this about the moon? |
31266 | Miss Livvy, you go to the ball? |
31266 | Miss Livvy? |
31266 | Miss Phoebe, it is you? |
31266 | Miss Phoebe, what did you omit from your letters that you had such young blackguards as that to terrify you? |
31266 | Miss Phoebe, when did you cease to care for me? |
31266 | Miss Susan, I rejoice to find no change in you; and Miss Phoebe-- Miss Phoebe of the ringlets-- I hope there be as little change in her? |
31266 | Miss Susan, can not we turn all these maps and horrors out till the vacation is over? |
31266 | Miss Susan, do you mean that V. B. has declared? |
31266 | Miss Susan, do you see who accompanies me? |
31266 | Miss Susan, does she care for me still? |
31266 | Miss Susan, how do you do, ma''am? |
31266 | Mr. Brown, I wonder why you have been so kind to my sister and me? |
31266 | Mr. Brown, is it a jest? |
31266 | Mr. Brown, what is it you have to tell us? |
31266 | My dear, it is hard for you, but have you any right to keep them apart? |
31266 | My dear, what is to be done about her? |
31266 | My love, has he offered? |
31266 | My love, my dear, what terrible thing has he said to you? |
31266 | My passion for Miss Livvy? |
31266 | Nay, ma''am, how do you do? |
31266 | No sweetheart? |
31266 | Not even you? |
31266 | Not to be able to tell him all, would it not be hard? |
31266 | Not yet? |
31266 | Noticing what, Miss Livvy? |
31266 | Oh, Susan, what did he say? |
31266 | Oh, Valentine Brown, how could you? |
31266 | Oh, sir, do you think some pretty gentleman might be partial to me at the ball? |
31266 | Oh, where are my pretty curls?'' |
31266 | Or Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | Perhaps I may venture to present myself, Miss-- Miss----? |
31266 | Phoebe, did you see who it is? |
31266 | Phoebe, has Captain Brown been apprised of Miss Livvy''s illness? |
31266 | Phoebe, how are we to live with the quartern loaf at one and tenpence? |
31266 | Phoebe, how can you be so cruel? |
31266 | Phoebe, how many are fourteen and seventeen? |
31266 | Phoebe, how much have we left? |
31266 | Phoebe, if a herring and a half cost three ha''pence, how many for elevenpence? |
31266 | Phoebe, why not marry him? |
31266 | Phoebe? |
31266 | Please, ma''am, may I take it off now? |
31266 | Sergeant, have you killed people? |
31266 | Shall we draw up the advertisement for the reopening of the school? |
31266 | She is not here? |
31266 | Sir? |
31266 | Sister, did his face change? |
31266 | So I am dashing, Miss Susan? |
31266 | So that he might offer to me out of pity, Susan? |
31266 | Surely not Captain Brown? |
31266 | Surely you remember little Livvy, Mary? |
31266 | Susan, another offer[ Transcriber''s note: officer?] |
31266 | Susan, what was it? |
31266 | Susan, why does thirty seem so much more than twenty- nine? |
31266 | The heroic Brown? |
31266 | The money; why did you not let me tell him? |
31266 | The picnics? |
31266 | The recruiting sergeant? |
31266 | The remark was humorous, was it not? |
31266 | The spinet, ma''am, seems quite herself to- day; I trust the ottoman passed a good night? |
31266 | Then by what right, ma''am, does he interfere? |
31266 | Then why do you do it? |
31266 | Then why fight him? |
31266 | They-- they did not go in to see Livvy? |
31266 | To begin with, what is Miss Livvy''s malady? |
31266 | To spoil it? |
31266 | To your sister? |
31266 | To- day? |
31266 | Under the shock, would he have surrendered his palm for punishment? |
31266 | V. B.? |
31266 | Was I born to be confined within these four walls? |
31266 | Was he not most silent and gloomy when we said she was gone out? |
31266 | We are not to see your niece? |
31266 | We know not, sir, whether to offer you our felicitations? |
31266 | What am I to do? |
31266 | What book is it, Phoebe? |
31266 | What can you mean? |
31266 | What do you know of love? |
31266 | What girls? |
31266 | What has Thomas done? |
31266 | What has happened? |
31266 | What is algebra exactly; is it those three cornered things? |
31266 | What is it? |
31266 | What is that? |
31266 | What is too horrible? |
31266 | What will you do now? |
31266 | Where am I? |
31266 | Who is this happy man? |
31266 | Who is to take off their wooden legs of an evening, Miss Susan? |
31266 | Who would dare? |
31266 | Why do they delay with the cordial? |
31266 | Why do they not say Miss Livvy has gone home? |
31266 | Why do you look at me so strangely? |
31266 | Why has she done this? |
31266 | Why has this deception been kept up so long? |
31266 | Why have they departed so hurriedly, sir? |
31266 | Why impossible? |
31266 | Why is this trick being played upon me? |
31266 | Why not, ma''am? |
31266 | Why will they admit no physician into her presence? |
31266 | Will you leave the army now? |
31266 | William Smith says it is fifteen; and he is such a big boy, do you think I ought to contradict him? |
31266 | Would it be seemly, Miss Fanny? |
31266 | Would you like to see it? |
31266 | Yes? |
31266 | You are going to the wars? |
31266 | You are not distraught, are you? |
31266 | You are sure of that? |
31266 | You are to take me? |
31266 | You call this home? |
31266 | You do not deny, ma''am, that you are Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | You false woman, what do you mean? |
31266 | You have come to recall old memories? |
31266 | You have seen Miss Phoebe, sir? |
31266 | You have summoned the apothecary at last, I trust, Phoebe? |
31266 | You know everything? |
31266 | You mean-- a follower-- in the kitchen? |
31266 | You remember me, do n''t you? |
31266 | You seem surprised? |
31266 | You suggest our retiring, sir? |
31266 | You think they did not see you? |
31266 | You who are torturing me with every word, what have you done to Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | You will wear it, my love, wo n''t you? |
31266 | You, Miss Phoebe? |
31266 | You, ma''am, or me? |
31266 | You_ think_? |
31266 | Your sweetheart? |
31266 | _ Still_, ma''am? |
31266 | sister, who am I? |
63045 | And I shall give up everything? |
63045 | And about the inscription? |
63045 | And did you,asked Miss Mason grimly,"assist him?" |
63045 | And has it all,she asked,"been just as delightful as I prophesied?" |
63045 | And how are you? 63045 And how did you find out that the child''s real name was Philippa?" |
63045 | And if I refuse? |
63045 | And later? |
63045 | And loving it like that you give it up? |
63045 | And may I have a cup? |
63045 | And may we accept this invitation wholesale? |
63045 | And not attempt to see me-- you promise? |
63045 | And now you''ll take one? |
63045 | And now,she said,"are you ready for the metamorphosis-- to re- paint me as a blue lady?" |
63045 | And so,he ended, smiling,"you mean to keep this waif?" |
63045 | And till then? |
63045 | And what, my dear,she said,"did you know of him?" |
63045 | And when the artist is found,queried Christopher,"may I ask what are your intentions towards him? |
63045 | And where is he now? |
63045 | And where,he asked,"did you find the child?" |
63045 | And who next? |
63045 | And who,she asked,"is this?" |
63045 | And why,asked the Duchessa,"is he not taking London by storm?" |
63045 | And,said Barnabas, speaking in a low voice,"you brought us in here because of Pippa?" |
63045 | Are you going to take an unfurnished studio? 63045 Are you-- content?" |
63045 | Barnabas wo n''t mind, will you, Barnabas? 63045 Barnabas, is n''t it beautiful, but, oh, very beautiful?" |
63045 | Because-- of what I said? |
63045 | Been lonely, little girl? |
63045 | But ca n''t one be mistaken in the belief that one can do something? |
63045 | But what have you done with the picture? |
63045 | But where does she live? |
63045 | But you''re not lonely now? |
63045 | But, Paul, dear,she said,"why did n''t you tell me long ago?" |
63045 | But, dearest,he said, when she had ended,"do you realize what you are giving up? |
63045 | But,asked Christopher,"you are not thinking of again entering the holy bonds of matrimony?" |
63045 | But,she went on,"you do n''t understand the rest of my action?" |
63045 | But-- but-- I simply couldn''t----"But, my dear, why not? |
63045 | By the way,he said suddenly,"did you read the account of the exhibition of pictures at the Grafton Galleries? |
63045 | By the way,said Barnabas,"what is your mistress''s name?" |
63045 | Ca n''t you get out of it, though? |
63045 | Can it be fairly said that one has been given the opportunity if it is truly impossible to accept it, which I imagine''too late''would signify? |
63045 | Can the woolly jackets be put on one side, and may I fetch my palette? |
63045 | Can we get a four- wheeler? |
63045 | Can you understand it? |
63045 | Christopher, darling,she cried,"is that you? |
63045 | Christopher,said Sara, suddenly and quite seriously,"do you think I shall ever marry again?" |
63045 | Could I see her for a moment? |
63045 | Dear aunt,_ cui bono_? 63045 Did n''t you?" |
63045 | Did you have a good time in Devonshire? |
63045 | Did you see her eyes? |
63045 | Do you count my love as little as that? |
63045 | Do you do anything yourself in that way? |
63045 | Do you ever notice my moods? 63045 Do you ever talk sense?" |
63045 | Do you know the man? |
63045 | Do you live here always? |
63045 | Do you see it? |
63045 | Do you think she might come? |
63045 | Does n''t a likeness strike you? |
63045 | Does n''t the opportunity sometimes arrive too late? |
63045 | For me? |
63045 | For the poor? |
63045 | From a painter to a----? |
63045 | God, why did n''t you let me die with my baby? |
63045 | Going away? |
63045 | Got a young man? |
63045 | Had he got a violin? |
63045 | Have you been lonely? |
63045 | Have you,asked Miss Mason,"any idea where the child was left?" |
63045 | He bought it, then? |
63045 | Hope you did n''t overwalk to- day? |
63045 | How can you live if I do n''t know where you are? |
63045 | How did Jasper come to tell you our story? |
63045 | How did you find out? |
63045 | How did you know? |
63045 | How do you know all this? |
63045 | However, if you wo n''t go, where is my knitting? 63045 I only wanted to know if we were near the address I gave you?" |
63045 | I suppose people will always laugh at me? |
63045 | I suppose,she said slowly,"that Jasper told you our story-- it''s a sordid little story, is n''t it-- and you wanted to help?" |
63045 | I wonder,she said quietly,"who was her mother?" |
63045 | I? |
63045 | In what way? |
63045 | Is Mrs. Merton at home? |
63045 | Is it not wonderful? |
63045 | Is it the influence of the morning, the wings of a white butterfly, or the wild- rose face of that child? |
63045 | Is n''t it? |
63045 | Is n''t one ever too old? 63045 Is n''t that rather ridiculous?" |
63045 | Is that a gentle reminder to me of my manners, or a query as to my health? 63045 Is there anything more I can do for you, ma''am?" |
63045 | It''s hardly worth while to trouble, is it? 63045 May I further ask to whom the portrait is to be presented?" |
63045 | May I keep it? |
63045 | May I now give you my reasons and my excuse for my action? 63045 May I smoke?" |
63045 | May I,said Barnabas,"say just how the situation strikes me?" |
63045 | May she? |
63045 | More beautiful than the others? |
63045 | More than you care for me? |
63045 | Mr. Treherne,she said,"are n''t you longing to say''I told you so''?" |
63045 | My dear,said Miss Mason quietly,"are you sure he would n''t? |
63045 | My dear,she then said suddenly,"what is the matter?" |
63045 | No? |
63045 | Paul and Michael? |
63045 | Paul,she said steadily,"what is it?" |
63045 | Paul? |
63045 | Permanently? |
63045 | Pippa lives in studio number seven with Miss Mason, do n''t you, Pippa? 63045 Pippa?" |
63045 | Read the account of the wedding? |
63045 | Ready? |
63045 | Return or single, ma''am? |
63045 | Sall I pose for you? |
63045 | See who it is, will you? |
63045 | Shall I be in the way? |
63045 | Shall I go away? |
63045 | Shall we paint this infant? |
63045 | Shall we say Tuesday afternoon for our call? |
63045 | She cared for him then? |
63045 | She not paint se altogezzer? |
63045 | So you saw the likeness too? |
63045 | So you will come? |
63045 | Studio let? |
63045 | Sugar? |
63045 | Tell me,said Bridget,"what Jasper told you?" |
63045 | That you, Pippa? |
63045 | The Benevolent refused it, did n''t they? |
63045 | The Duchessa di Corleone at home? |
63045 | The colour? |
63045 | The question is, will you spare her? |
63045 | The will? |
63045 | Then she is unhappy, too? |
63045 | Then the child,asked Barnabas,"is no relation of yours?" |
63045 | Then where is it? |
63045 | Then you are married? |
63045 | Then you are prepared,he asked,"to tell your husband everything? |
63045 | Then you''ll buy new things? |
63045 | Then you''re not angry? |
63045 | Then,she said,"it is the colour of the dress that is wrong?" |
63045 | Then----? |
63045 | There is n''t,she said with a note of anxiety in her voice,"anything wrong with Jasper?" |
63045 | There was no entail on the estate? |
63045 | They were going to Biarritz, were n''t they? |
63045 | Think so? |
63045 | Think so? |
63045 | To find an artist for you? |
63045 | Unaccustomed? |
63045 | Was-- was I horrible? |
63045 | We met-- when was it-- last May? |
63045 | Well, Pippa,asked Sara,"and what do you think of my portrait?" |
63045 | Well, why should n''t it be? |
63045 | Well? |
63045 | Well? |
63045 | Well? |
63045 | What am I to do? |
63045 | What do you mean? |
63045 | What do you mean? |
63045 | What do you think of it? |
63045 | What do you think? |
63045 | What happened next? |
63045 | What is he doing at the moment? |
63045 | What is he like? |
63045 | What is his name? |
63045 | What is it, Kiddy? |
63045 | What is to be the end of it? |
63045 | What must we do? |
63045 | What name shall I say,''m? |
63045 | What was your idea when you came to me? |
63045 | What would I have looked like if I''d been caught? |
63045 | What''s funny? |
63045 | What''s going on here? |
63045 | What''s inside? |
63045 | What''s to be done? |
63045 | What, ze garden? |
63045 | What? |
63045 | When did you last have food? |
63045 | Where did you learn to make curtsies, child? 63045 Where did you lose him?" |
63045 | Where is she? |
63045 | Where is yours? |
63045 | Where on earth have you two been? |
63045 | Where will you take your studio? |
63045 | Where''ave you been? |
63045 | Which would you value most-- my opinion or the opinion of those two girls? |
63045 | Who did it? |
63045 | Who is it? |
63045 | Who is the portrait? |
63045 | Who sent you to me? |
63045 | Who''s taken the studio? |
63045 | Who,she asked,"is Pippa?" |
63045 | Who,she asked,"is that?" |
63045 | Who,she asked,"was Stella?" |
63045 | Why do n''t you get a new one,he said half irritably,"or at least cover it with a tea- cloth? |
63045 | Why do n''t you go and see her? |
63045 | Why do n''t you take her out of her surroundings then? |
63045 | Why do you hope so, Christopher? |
63045 | Why not? |
63045 | Why not? |
63045 | Will you come again and see me? |
63045 | Will you come inside? |
63045 | Will you have it,he asked,"in memory of your visit here?" |
63045 | Will you have it? |
63045 | Will you not,said the old man courteously,"follow Pippa''s example and enter the garden by the door? |
63045 | Wo n''t the lady be a trifle overwhelmed? |
63045 | Wonder why this has been sent? |
63045 | Wot is it, mum? |
63045 | Would you like to give your time to the work? |
63045 | Would you like to see the place where he worked? |
63045 | Yes, dear? |
63045 | Yes, ma''am; but----"Does he live in London? |
63045 | Yes? |
63045 | Yes? |
63045 | Yes? |
63045 | Yes? |
63045 | Yes? |
63045 | You are sorry? |
63045 | You do n''t mean to say Pippa climbed up here? |
63045 | You do n''t often see it, do you? |
63045 | You guessed? |
63045 | You hate me? |
63045 | You knew Philippe? |
63045 | You know that oil- portrait that hangs by my mantelpiece? |
63045 | You mean----? |
63045 | You mean----? |
63045 | You still remember our conversation long ago? |
63045 | You think that after all there may be some advantage in her baptism? |
63045 | You were thinkin''to offer the chance to me? |
63045 | You will accept, Paul? |
63045 | You''ll be meanin''----? |
63045 | You''re cold? |
63045 | You''ve sold this portrait, have n''t you? |
63045 | You-- you could never care? |
63045 | Your mistress at home? |
63045 | Your mistress in? |
63045 | _ Bien?_she queried. |
63045 | _ Quel domage!_ You could n''t climb, ze wall ver''much too''igh? |
63045 | ''Where?'' |
63045 | And again, when painting some piece of flame- coloured drapery, he would hear the words:"How did you try to help me? |
63045 | And now, little girl, how about bed?" |
63045 | And once more I ask you, how can one attain to the distinction of portrait painter if one does not paint portraits?" |
63045 | And then she added quietly,"and your wife died too?" |
63045 | And then suddenly:"What is your name?" |
63045 | And will you think me a pig if I run away for a little while and tell Paul?" |
63045 | Anything I can get for you? |
63045 | But did you ever see such a garden?" |
63045 | By the way,"he went on,"no one has called to claim the ring yet, I suppose?" |
63045 | CHAPTER XXIX SOME TWISTED THREADS"Barnabas,"said Miss Mason one day-- it was the fourteenth of October--"what''s the matter with Paul?" |
63045 | Corner seat facing the engine, did you say?" |
63045 | Did you ever know such a trying situation for a luxury- loving and curious woman in your life?" |
63045 | Did you give her ze ring?" |
63045 | Do the others know?" |
63045 | Do you still care for your wife?" |
63045 | Do you think I care what the world would say of me?" |
63045 | Do you think creation is slither? |
63045 | Ever made bread and milk in your life before?" |
63045 | Had he left behind him this scrap of humanity, holding perhaps a spirit as poetical and intense as his own, to battle with the world? |
63045 | Have you ever heard her? |
63045 | Have you ever posed before?" |
63045 | Have you stuck the Messonnier painting on an envelope in mistake for a postage stamp and put it in the pillar- box? |
63045 | Higgins?" |
63045 | I----""How did you try to help me?" |
63045 | If it is not impertinent of me, may I congratulate you on it?" |
63045 | If you believe as I do that we belong to each other for time and eternity, then how can you----?" |
63045 | Is everything perfectly clear?" |
63045 | Is he as nice as his name?" |
63045 | Is it worth while to you, for your husband''s sake, to give me the pleasure of arranging it?" |
63045 | Is n''t vat a nice story?" |
63045 | Is not that enough? |
63045 | Is there a good fire? |
63045 | It does n''t make much difference to us, does it?" |
63045 | It makes it difficult to believe in an over- ruling Providence, does n''t it? |
63045 | It seemed forced from her:"Did you have a child?" |
63045 | It''s odd, is n''t it?" |
63045 | Luke did not know him?" |
63045 | My dear, was I wrong? |
63045 | Paper or anything? |
63045 | Shall you be busy to- morrow?" |
63045 | She is bound to have a studio somewhere if she wants to paint, and why not among us? |
63045 | So he merely said lightly:"Where is she now?" |
63045 | So the Jenkinses have gone, have they? |
63045 | Suppose there''s room in that ridiculous kitchen for you both?" |
63045 | The colour''s all right, but what on earth is the thing worth? |
63045 | The question is whether you will be too bored with further sittings?" |
63045 | Then she turned to Miss Mason"What sall I call you?" |
63045 | There are a good many in Italy, are n''t there?" |
63045 | Therefore, will you permit me, from the regions of the peaceful dead, to offer to you my felicitations? |
63045 | What do you hope to find on this side?" |
63045 | What does your work cost you? |
63045 | What is yours?" |
63045 | What name''m?" |
63045 | What use else to write? |
63045 | What was ze boy''s name?" |
63045 | What were your plans? |
63045 | What''s the trouble? |
63045 | Where are the others?" |
63045 | Where did you say the house was?" |
63045 | Where was I before you interrupted?" |
63045 | Which do you want most-- your child whom you have never seen or your husband?" |
63045 | Who was he to sit in judgment on his fellow- men? |
63045 | Who was he?" |
63045 | Why make another representation of them?" |
63045 | Why on earth did n''t your friend Shottover take the place? |
63045 | Why should n''t you accept them now?" |
63045 | Will you come inside''m?" |
63045 | Will you come into the sitting- room? |
63045 | Window up or down? |
63045 | You do n''t understand what I mean? |
63045 | You know he has lost a good bit of money?" |
63045 | You shudder? |
63045 | You will still let me come and see you?" |
63045 | You wo n''t mind if we keep on the tour till the end of June, will you? |
63045 | and will you have some of the furniture sent up from your old home?" |
63045 | asked Alan,"or by the day?" |
63045 | asked Barnabas, looking at Miss Mason,"or may I stay?" |
63045 | little girl?" |
63045 | said Paul, standing near the luncheon table while Pippa gazed upon the portrait,"what do you think of it?" |
63045 | she asked, and her voice was truculent because her spirit was quaking,"and wot can I do for you, sir?" |
63045 | what''s this? |
41801 | A parson''s wife? |
41801 | A professional nurse? |
41801 | Along the road? |
41801 | And she sent you here? |
41801 | Are we? |
41801 | Are you going to have a party? |
41801 | Are you going to have baby brought down here this afternoon? |
41801 | Are you willing I should have it? |
41801 | Arrange, is it? |
41801 | But do n''t you want me to finish the chapter? |
41801 | But has anybody spoken to Deacon Richards? |
41801 | But how should anybody know anything about his affairs? |
41801 | But its mother? |
41801 | But suppose she cries herself sick? |
41801 | But supposing the baby cries? |
41801 | But what about her? |
41801 | But what can I do? |
41801 | But what did she expect you to do? |
41801 | But what for is ye tellin''me that, when ye do n''t belave it''s wrong? |
41801 | But why do n''t you have a fire? |
41801 | But why should she write to you? |
41801 | But would she give the baby up? |
41801 | But, Mrs. Webbe,I said as gently as I could,"do n''t you think the fact that baby has no mother, and must bear that, will make her need love more?" |
41801 | By the town authorities? |
41801 | Ca n''t you pick up the room a little while I feed the baby? |
41801 | Ca n''t you see I am fighting for you? 41801 Cousin Mehitable?" |
41801 | Deacon Richards,I said,"why do you freeze the people so in the vestry?" |
41801 | Deacon Webbe,I said at last, when I could not bear the silence any longer,"what is the matter?" |
41801 | Did he say why he was going? |
41801 | Did she understand? |
41801 | Did you ever hear of such foolishness? |
41801 | Did you expect me to go down and nurse the girl? |
41801 | Did you know Tom Webbe''s gone off? |
41801 | Did you speak to her? |
41801 | Do n''t you know about the Brownrigs that live in that little red house on the Rim Road? |
41801 | Do n''t you see everybody else knew it was a case to be let alone? |
41801 | Do n''t you think, Miss Ruth,she said to me yesterday,"that you could persuade your mother to see Mr. Saychase? |
41801 | Do n''t you think, Mrs. Webbe,I asked, trying to look as sunny as a June day,"that baby is rather young to get harm from me or my heresies? |
41801 | Do they train''em? |
41801 | Do you believe that? |
41801 | Do you feel set up because you have seen the West that so few of us have visited? |
41801 | Do you know where he has gone? |
41801 | Do you suppose after that I''d have her for my wife? 41801 Do you suppose that I should have come of myself?" |
41801 | Do you suppose,he asked doggedly,"now I am free I''d consent to marry any woman but you? |
41801 | Do you tell me not to marry her? |
41801 | Do you think I could have ruined any man''s life for that? 41801 Do you think I want her to live? |
41801 | Do you think then,I asked him, doing my best to keep back the tears,"that it can give any pleasure to a kind Heavenly Father? |
41801 | Do you think,he said,"that I would have an illegitimate brat near you? |
41801 | Do you write to Tom? |
41801 | Does that mean that your life is regulated by the gossips? 41801 From Boston?" |
41801 | George,I asked, entirely at random,"did n''t you say that the Miss West you met at Franklin is a cousin of the Watsons?" |
41801 | Get by what? |
41801 | Give it to her how? |
41801 | Has anybody been to see you? |
41801 | Has anything happened? |
41801 | Has the Brownrig girl a child? |
41801 | Have you thought, Miss Ruth,the Deacon asked at length in the growing dark,"what a responsibility you are taking upon yourself in having that baby?" |
41801 | Her mother has gone off? |
41801 | How dare you drag me about? |
41801 | How did it happen? |
41801 | How did you dare to say that my son was the father of your brat? 41801 How did you hear that?" |
41801 | How did you know about it? |
41801 | How do you dare to do it? |
41801 | How do you like going out nursing? |
41801 | How is your mother to- day? |
41801 | How long is it that we have been engaged? |
41801 | How long is it that we have been engaged? |
41801 | How much is it for her father''s sake? |
41801 | How should I know what time it went to bed? |
41801 | I am fond of you and I am fond of baby; but if baby were big enough and talked this silly way about you, do you suppose I would allow it? 41801 I do n''t know, George,"was my reply,"what business it is of everybody''s; and if it were, why should I not be fond of Tom?" |
41801 | I should have passed pretty quickly then; but what did Tom Webbe do? |
41801 | I thank you, Ruth,he said,"but do n''t you see I had better not give folks any occasion to think of me at all just now? |
41801 | If it has to bear a shame all its life, whose fault is it, its own or yours? 41801 If it is n''t your business,"she demanded sharply,"what are you here for? |
41801 | Is he Overseer? |
41801 | Is n''t it a glorious day? |
41801 | Is n''t it a pleasure to see you? |
41801 | Is she going to die? |
41801 | Is the baby gone? |
41801 | Is the favor to be a reward for the fault or for confessing it? |
41801 | It is n''t my fault that I''m his son, is it? |
41801 | It''s a pity, of course; but you would n''t have us so little interested in each other as not to notice the things we hear, would you? |
41801 | It''s the business of the neighbors that she''s sure to ruin her husband if she keeps on with her extravagance, is n''t it? 41801 John Deland, that owns the smoke- houses?" |
41801 | Judge Privet took you abroad several times, did n''t he? |
41801 | Jule? 41801 Kathie,"I asked,"did you see Mr. Weston coming when you jumped in?" |
41801 | Kathie,I said,"do you mind staying here with baby while I take a little walk? |
41801 | Kathie,said I,"how much of that performance yesterday was real, and how much was humbug? |
41801 | Keeping her? |
41801 | Lawk- a- marcy, child,she said, coming up to the bed,"if you was dying do you think you''d have strength to holler like that?" |
41801 | Look here, Ruth, what''s the good of pretending? 41801 Meaning that I can talk of nothing but books?" |
41801 | Meant? |
41801 | Miss Ruth,she burst out,"ai n''t you going to marry George Weston?" |
41801 | No intention of marrying her? |
41801 | No worse than to break one''s word, is it? |
41801 | O Tom,I asked in despair,"why do n''t you help me? |
41801 | Of course not; why should you? |
41801 | Oh, Miss Ruth,she cried out, as soon as I turned,"oh, wo n''t you come out here? |
41801 | Oh, Tom,I said,"are you quite sure this is what you ought to do?" |
41801 | Oh, ca n''t you do something for me? 41801 Oh, ca n''t you pray and keep me from hell, Miss Ruth?" |
41801 | Oh, dear,I asked,"what is it now? |
41801 | Oh, here you are, are you? |
41801 | Oh, where do such trash come from ever? |
41801 | Oh, you ca n''t, ca n''t you? |
41801 | Or do you only wish to believe it? |
41801 | Pleases me? |
41801 | Rosa,I said severely,"have you been walking Thomasine to sleep? |
41801 | Rosa,I said,"do n''t you believe in your church?" |
41801 | Ruth,he asked me at last, with an odd hoarseness in his voice,"do you want George Weston to marry that woman?" |
41801 | Ruth,he cried out,"what''s the use of all this talk? |
41801 | Ruth,the deacon asked, almost before we had shaken hands,"did you know Tom had gone away?" |
41801 | Sent to Boston for a nurse for that creature? 41801 Sent you here?" |
41801 | She has written to you about me? |
41801 | She''ll get me well? |
41801 | Sitting here alone? |
41801 | So as not to follow it? |
41801 | So he has taken advantage of your mothering his baby, has he? |
41801 | Suppose the husband had lived? |
41801 | That Brownrig girl? |
41801 | The blacksmith? |
41801 | Then I shall get well? |
41801 | Then what for''s she all the time twitting me about Ranny Gargan? |
41801 | Then why do you do it? |
41801 | Then you do n''t write to him? |
41801 | Then you do think it''s better for baby to be with me than with her grandmother? |
41801 | Then you refuse to let me have her? |
41801 | Think what was Miss West? |
41801 | To blame me? |
41801 | To know what? |
41801 | To you? |
41801 | Tom Webbe said that? 41801 Tom,"I asked him desperately,"are you never going to get over this bitter feeling? |
41801 | Tom,I broke out at last, when I could endure it no longer,"did you know that Mrs. Weston is here, very ill?" |
41801 | Tom? |
41801 | Well? |
41801 | Well? |
41801 | What Brownrig girl? |
41801 | What are you doing? |
41801 | What are you knitting? |
41801 | What can I do, Miss Charlotte? |
41801 | What did Mrs. Weston say? |
41801 | What did he say? |
41801 | What did they do? |
41801 | What do you know about how I feel? |
41801 | What do you know about marrying anyhow, Hannah Elsmore? 41801 What do you mean?" |
41801 | What do you mean? |
41801 | What do you mean? |
41801 | What do you want me to do? |
41801 | What for do n''t I mean it? |
41801 | What for would I have somebody making my marriage? 41801 What has Aunt Naomi sent you for now?" |
41801 | What has happened? |
41801 | What has she been doing? |
41801 | What if she had? |
41801 | What in the world do you mean? |
41801 | What is before her? |
41801 | What is it now? |
41801 | What is it now? |
41801 | What is it, Aunt Naomi? |
41801 | What is it? |
41801 | What is that? |
41801 | What is the matter, Ruth? |
41801 | What is the matter? |
41801 | What made you think anything had happened? |
41801 | What makes you think that it was Miss West? |
41801 | What pleases you? |
41801 | What pleases you? |
41801 | What shall I do? |
41801 | What was he doing there? 41801 What''s George Weston taking that West girl over to Canton for?" |
41801 | What? |
41801 | When you live in Boston,she said,"I shall"--"Suppose I should not live in Boston?" |
41801 | Where do you keep yourself, Tom? |
41801 | Where''s he gone? |
41801 | Where''s the baby? |
41801 | Which Deacon Daniel? |
41801 | Who gave you a right to order me round, Ruth Privet? 41801 Who said anything had happened?" |
41801 | Who''s wanting to have their own way, Miss Privet? |
41801 | Why did n''t she come herself? |
41801 | Why do n''t you have a fire in the vestry? |
41801 | Why do n''t you put up a sign? 41801 Why not go down to his mill in broad daylight?" |
41801 | Why not let somebody else take care of the vestry then, if you want a fire? |
41801 | Why should n''t he beat his own wife when she deserved it,Rosa demanded,"and she nothing but a hateful, sharp- nosed pig?" |
41801 | Why should n''t he take her? |
41801 | Why, Kathie,I asked,"what is the matter?" |
41801 | Why, Kathie,I said, amazed at her excitement,"what in the world are you saying? |
41801 | Why, who ever thought of anything so preposterous? |
41801 | Will she come in here? |
41801 | Will they? 41801 Will you be quiet?" |
41801 | Wo n''t remarry her? |
41801 | Would Tom Webbe want to have anything to do with the child? |
41801 | You are not afraid of wills, then? |
41801 | You are not angry, Ruth? |
41801 | You are willing to share her with her father even if you do adopt her? |
41801 | You can keep the child if you are so determined,he said,"though why you should want to I ca n''t conceive; but why need you adopt it? |
41801 | You did n''t mean for me to come, did you? |
41801 | You do n''t call this living, do you? 41801 You do n''t mean,"I burst out before I thought,"that you would n''t have had Tom marry her?" |
41801 | You do n''t mean,he pleaded piteously,"you''ve stopped caring for me?" |
41801 | You do n''t suppose,was her response, with a chuckle,"that he''d give up the key to anybody else, do you?" |
41801 | You have n''t any of you traveled in the West, have you? |
41801 | You have no more business, have you, George? |
41801 | You mean,I returned, full of fun and mischief,"that the idea of my offering myself to you was too horrible? |
41801 | You what, Ruth? |
41801 | You will keep her? |
41801 | You wo n''t try to stop him? |
41801 | You would n''t let her die with Mrs. Bagley, then? |
41801 | Your own or somebody''s else? |
41801 | About what sort? |
41801 | After all, what was there to suspect? |
41801 | Am I so changeable that if I had been his wife I should have tried him by my severe standards, and then judged him unworthy? |
41801 | And yet-- What is the use of all this? |
41801 | But then-- has he not been happy? |
41801 | Ca n''t you save me? |
41801 | Can you fool yourself into thinking that you have n''t had a lucky escape from a man that''s in every way your inferior? |
41801 | Can you forgive me for being baby''s father?" |
41801 | Could n''t the whole matter at least be left till she is old enough to know the meaning of words?" |
41801 | Could n''t you persuade her she''s too young to think about such things?" |
41801 | Cousin Mehitable is the only near relative I have in the world, and why should I not be with her? |
41801 | Did you make a shroud or put on a dress?" |
41801 | Do I mean that the time has come when George would not mind hurting my feelings? |
41801 | Do n''t I know that for this ten years you and Aunt Martha have n''t spent half your income? |
41801 | Do n''t you remember Maria Harmon used to say that to a pious soul a funeral was a heavenly picnic?" |
41801 | Do you agree?" |
41801 | Do you think I''d ever forgive her for dragging Tom into the mud? |
41801 | Do you think I''ve no human feelings? |
41801 | Do you think we had better call on her?" |
41801 | Do you think you are doing a favor to Tom by keeping this disreputable thing alive?" |
41801 | Do you want to kill her?" |
41801 | Do you?" |
41801 | Does she think any person with style would let her into the house?" |
41801 | Does this mean that married love goes through such a change? |
41801 | Even if I were convinced he would be happier and better with me,--and how can I tell that?--what is there I could do? |
41801 | Father would say,"Why should we?" |
41801 | Have you seen Aunt Naomi this week? |
41801 | How can I run the risk of having another scene like the one on Friday? |
41801 | How could one reason with her, or what was there to say? |
41801 | How dare you decide what God will do?" |
41801 | How do the skates work?" |
41801 | How does she think I''d get anything better? |
41801 | How long is it since you heard any music, or saw a picture, or went to the theatre, or had any society?" |
41801 | How soon do you go to Franklin to the annual conference?" |
41801 | I am ready to do anything I can do, but what is there? |
41801 | I beg your pardon, Mr. Thurston, but does n''t what has happened prove she is too high- strung to be troubled with theology yet? |
41801 | I had almost forgotten her yearly missionary effort, so that when she appeared I said with the utmost cheerfulness and unconcern,"What is it, Hannah?" |
41801 | I have taken out this book to try to set down-- to set down what? |
41801 | I hope you do n''t put her on a level with real folks, do you?" |
41801 | I might bring back that other talk out of the dull blur of pain, but where would be the good? |
41801 | I must do something; but what can I do? |
41801 | I must work it out alone; but what can I say? |
41801 | I remembered the question he asked me when he came back from Franklin after he had seen her:"How long have we been engaged?" |
41801 | I was ashamed of him and ashamed of myself, and very angry; and when he said he''d make me marry him sometime, I told him"--"Well?" |
41801 | I wonder if a woman can ever be entirely just to another woman who has been praised by the man she cares for? |
41801 | I wonder if he had any notion of my feeling? |
41801 | I wonder what I ought to do? |
41801 | I wonder what I should do? |
41801 | I wonder why it is that nature, which makes almost any other ruin picturesque, never succeeds in making the wreck of humanity anything but hideous? |
41801 | I wonder-- Well, George has shown that he is not what I thought him, and do I care for him less? |
41801 | I would have given anything I possessed to comfort him, but what could I say? |
41801 | I''ll show you a daguerreotype some time; though, after all, what difference does it make? |
41801 | If Providence is willing to take the creature out of the way, what are you trying to keep her alive for?" |
41801 | If he should,--if by a pretty face he forgets all the years that we have belonged to each other, what is there to do? |
41801 | Is it a boy or a girl?" |
41801 | Is this your house?" |
41801 | May I say something that may sound impertinent?" |
41801 | Or is it that I have been so happy myself I have not realized how the long engagement was wearying him? |
41801 | Shall I tell Julia you have come?" |
41801 | The answer to the question in the New England Primer,''Who is the meekest man?'' |
41801 | The girl watched me with eager eyes, and at last, as I came near the bed, she asked suddenly,--"Did he send you?" |
41801 | To that crowd?" |
41801 | We certainly hail the thought of new experiences in the body; why not out of it? |
41801 | What affair of yours is it, anyway?" |
41801 | What can I do for her? |
41801 | What can I do to influence George''s wife? |
41801 | What can I say? |
41801 | What could I say to a father mourning the sin and the disgrace of his only son? |
41801 | What could there be? |
41801 | What did he tell me that night? |
41801 | What did you put on her? |
41801 | What did you say to him?" |
41801 | What do I know about it anyway? |
41801 | What do I know of the intolerable life that has not self- respect, not even cleanliness of mind or body? |
41801 | What does she know about it, anyway?" |
41801 | What else should you do?" |
41801 | What is the matter?" |
41801 | What is there she can hope for? |
41801 | What right have you to interfere? |
41801 | What time has been settled on for the church fair?" |
41801 | What tramp or beggar or clodhopper have you picked out? |
41801 | What''s happened?" |
41801 | When I had finished she lay quiet for some time, and then she said,--"May I say one thing, Ruth, about George?" |
41801 | Where are all the Christians and church members? |
41801 | Where did they come from?" |
41801 | Where there are''many mansions,''do n''t you think there may be one even for those who did not see the truth, if they were honest in their blindness?" |
41801 | Where''s that baby going to get any religious training from you, Ruth Privet?" |
41801 | Whether I concealed anything from her or not I can not tell; but after all why should I care? |
41801 | Why do n''t you ask Tom Webbe?" |
41801 | Why do n''t you have a fire?" |
41801 | Why should I want her alive? |
41801 | Why should I write it? |
41801 | Why should I?" |
41801 | Why should he give his address to me? |
41801 | Why should he know more about it than you do? |
41801 | Why should he not like to talk of a pretty girl? |
41801 | Why should it tease me so? |
41801 | Why should n''t they? |
41801 | Why should we be more ready to think of the unknown as dreadful than as delightful? |
41801 | Why should we not be afraid? |
41801 | Why, can you honestly think now for a moment of marrying him without feeling your backbone all gooseflesh?" |
41801 | Will eight o''clock do? |
41801 | Will he by and by have lived through his first love for his wife, and if so what will be left? |
41801 | Yet what can I do to help it? |
41801 | Yet why not put it down fearlessly, since I have begun? |
41801 | You remember about that, do n''t you? |
41801 | You would n''t let the girl die alone, would you?" |
40735 | A long journey,I repeated;"and why not?" |
40735 | A million of them? |
40735 | And further_more_,said Mr. Shears, insinuatingly,"what I want to know is: why has she got them pitchers a- hanging around the school- room walls? |
40735 | And if they do-- what then? |
40735 | And the great stone of Iris- Iris? |
40735 | And the subscription price? |
40735 | And what did you prophesy, Uncle Weatherby? |
40735 | And what was that? |
40735 | And what was that? |
40735 | And where,I ask,"was that?" |
40735 | And who is Maggie? |
40735 | And who_ was_ Michael the Angelo? |
40735 | And why? |
40735 | And yet,said the scientist,"you-- you are quite unattached, are you not?" |
40735 | And you have already--? |
40735 | Are they not? |
40735 | Are you quite sure about it, Bertram? |
40735 | At Rug--"What will visitors say? 40735 B- what?" |
40735 | Been up the Statue of Liberty, I suppose? |
40735 | Bertram,said my wife one evening as we sat together by the lamp,"what do you think Letitia says?" |
40735 | But I mean-- don''t you think she may have loved him? |
40735 | But are you sure they are primroses? |
40735 | But do n''t you remember Robin Hood and his merry men? |
40735 | But how did you do it? |
40735 | But how? |
40735 | But the cost? |
40735 | But what are they for? |
40735 | But when did you think of it? |
40735 | But who will buy it? |
40735 | But why do n''t you ask God to send you a little boy all your own, just four years old like me, so we could play together? 40735 But why, Bertram?" |
40735 | But why? |
40735 | But you''ll come, father? |
40735 | But you? |
40735 | But,I said,"do you trust--""Trust her? |
40735 | Child,he said, looking her keenly in the eyes,"do you find it so hard to brave that lion?" |
40735 | Come,I said,"have you no faith, Letitia?" |
40735 | Daughter,she would say,"where is your hat?" |
40735 | Dictionary''s handy, is n''t it? |
40735 | Did Mr. Bob send them? |
40735 | Did Mr. Bob send these Bombay papers? |
40735 | Did anything famous happen there? |
40735 | Did n''t you guess? |
40735 | Did n''t you know? |
40735 | Did she always tell you that? |
40735 | Did she really remember you? |
40735 | Did she tell you that? |
40735 | Did what? |
40735 | Did you guess where you were going? |
40735 | Did you look in the P''s? |
40735 | Did you notice any bobolinks? |
40735 | Did you say Miss Peggy Neal, suh? |
40735 | Did, hey? 40735 Do I look forlorn? |
40735 | Do I look like an ogress? |
40735 | Do they fill the box? |
40735 | Do they smoke at your parties? |
40735 | Do you know what I asked him? |
40735 | Do you know what I asked that man? |
40735 | Do you like''Sordello''? |
40735 | Do you object,I asked,"to your aunt''s best Sunday hat?" |
40735 | Do you remember how I called to you, and came running back? |
40735 | Do you remember me? |
40735 | Do you remember this ancient dame? |
40735 | Do you remember when I went to school to you? 40735 Do you remember, Letitia, how you and Robin rested here?" |
40735 | Do you suppose Tom put in his name like that? |
40735 | Do you? |
40735 | Doctor,he said,"how does a man perform some marvellous surgical feat, which no one had ever done, or dreamed of doing, before? |
40735 | Doctor,said Peggy Neal, rising again,"you wo n''t mind waiting outside a moment? |
40735 | Does he ever grumble at you? |
40735 | Father,he said, doggedly,"it''s about-- it''s about--""Yes?" |
40735 | Had you thought of that? |
40735 | Have we not Sun Dial? |
40735 | Have you cloth,she asked,"of the shade called Lincoln green?" |
40735 | Hiram must be getting on then? |
40735 | Hm-- what, father? |
40735 | How cool_ are_ the moors? |
40735 | How do you get on with your Latin? |
40735 | How is it you''re here? 40735 How many did you swallow?" |
40735 | How old are you? |
40735 | How shall I know? |
40735 | How shall we fill it? |
40735 | How then shall you escape sadness and regret? 40735 I be the horsey?" |
40735 | I beg pardon? |
40735 | I dread the winter-- don''t you? |
40735 | I thought my legs were so short? |
40735 | I? 40735 I?" |
40735 | If I may be permitted,he said,"to repeat my humble question-- may I ask, was it your money-- that bought-- the pictures?" |
40735 | Indeed? |
40735 | Is Miss Neal at home? |
40735 | Is Mr. Hiram Ptolemy in? |
40735 | Is it a battle- field? |
40735 | Is it a castle? |
40735 | Is it customary here, Peggy? |
40735 | Is it just a town, then? |
40735 | Is it thinking, then? |
40735 | Is my father dead? |
40735 | Is n''t it? |
40735 | Is she--? |
40735 | Is there another Mills Hotel? |
40735 | It''s hard always trying to be-- dominant,she remarked,"is n''t it?" |
40735 | Latin and Greek, of course? |
40735 | Let''s see, that''s Poe, is n''t it? |
40735 | Letitia was fond of Robin, was she not? |
40735 | Letitia,I said, sharply,"what nonsense is this?" |
40735 | Light green or dark green? |
40735 | Loving no one in particular, I have had the time to love every one, do n''t you see? 40735 Might it not incite them to sling- shots?" |
40735 | Miss Neal? |
40735 | Miss who? |
40735 | Mother,I said, coolly,"will you put up some sandwiches? |
40735 | Mr. Butters, what kind of type is this? |
40735 | Mr. Percival,I said, cordially, looking at my watch,"wo n''t you come to dinner?" |
40735 | Must I give up all my fun because a mere girl''s coming? |
40735 | Neal? |
40735 | Never been up the--"What did he say? |
40735 | New York is a great place, is n''t it? |
40735 | No patients, doctor? |
40735 | No? |
40735 | Not much of a talker, though? |
40735 | Now, if the idle young gentleman drawing_ pictures_--"_ Tertia vigilia eruptionem fecerunt_--oh, they did, did they? |
40735 | Of course, of course,he interposed,"but did you ever take up ancient matters to any extent?" |
40735 | Oh, Mr. St. John,she said, while we all sat listening,"I''ve wanted to ask you: how did you come to write_ Sleepington Fair_?" |
40735 | Oh, what is the matter? |
40735 | Oh, would it? |
40735 | Oh,I said,"and did he go to Rugby, sir?" |
40735 | Oh,said he,"is that you, father?" |
40735 | Oh,she answered,"those?" |
40735 | Old friends? |
40735 | Only an hour? 40735 Only six slices, Bertram? |
40735 | Peter, who''s that? |
40735 | Print it, child? 40735 Regular jungles-- eh, father?" |
40735 | Robin Saxeholm? |
40735 | Robin told you? |
40735 | Robin,I said one day, and as casually as I could make my tone,"did you want to tell me anything? |
40735 | Rough? |
40735 | Said? 40735 Say, what do you think I am? |
40735 | Shall I nail the cover on? |
40735 | Shall I write to Peggy? |
40735 | So he lives at a Mills Hotel? |
40735 | So long, father? 40735 So?" |
40735 | Still hatching poems, I suppose? |
40735 | Still,I insist,"you do not prefer it to your own?" |
40735 | Suppose,said Dove,"it should be a girl who bears away sacred fire from your shelf, Letitia?" |
40735 | Surprising? |
40735 | Tavistock? 40735 Tavistock?" |
40735 | Tell me,she urged,"did I presume too much? |
40735 | Tell whom? 40735 The Doone Valley,"I remarked,"would be Devon, would n''t it?" |
40735 | The figure? 40735 The grapes?" |
40735 | Then shall you alter it? |
40735 | Then why not stay? |
40735 | This trip? |
40735 | Those? 40735 To what, then,"piped Jimmy Gallows,"do you attribute your success?" |
40735 | Unattached,he repeated,"by ties of-- the affections?" |
40735 | Was it a conundrum? |
40735 | Well, I rather hoped--"Yes? |
40735 | Well, now, how did you guess it? 40735 Well,"he would say, stopping them as they walked together arm in arm,"if you seek Peter, look for Bertram-- eh?" |
40735 | Well? 40735 Well?" |
40735 | Well? |
40735 | What about water? |
40735 | What are the red lines, father? |
40735 | What can I get for you, dear? |
40735 | What can we do for you this morning? |
40735 | What could he say, my love? |
40735 | What did he say? |
40735 | What did you ask, Bertram? |
40735 | What do I want with a husband then? |
40735 | What do you mean by the next name to Robin? |
40735 | What do you think that little-- that man wants? |
40735 | What do you want? |
40735 | What does he want to choose_ our_ year for? 40735 What does my son care about Michael the Angelo?" |
40735 | What for? |
40735 | What good''11 it do to tell you? 40735 What have I done?" |
40735 | What have_ I_ done? |
40735 | What is wanted? |
40735 | What luck, Bertram? |
40735 | What made you do it? |
40735 | What type? |
40735 | What was the matter with him? |
40735 | What was the promise she made you? |
40735 | What would you like? |
40735 | What''s the difference? |
40735 | What,I asked,"is the figure meant for?" |
40735 | What,he asked,"are drawin''-books_ for_?" |
40735 | What,_ never_? |
40735 | What? |
40735 | When do we start? |
40735 | When were you rough, Bertie? |
40735 | When,I asked,"will it be out?" |
40735 | Where Robin is? |
40735 | Where have you been so long, Letitia? |
40735 | Where is it, Bertram? |
40735 | Where''s Tavistock? |
40735 | Whiskers? |
40735 | Who buys them? |
40735 | Who is this woman? |
40735 | Who knows, my boy? 40735 Who said I did n''t know how to spell it?" |
40735 | Who told you that? |
40735 | Who was Robin? |
40735 | Who wrote them? |
40735 | Who''s that, Peter? |
40735 | Who''s there? |
40735 | Who-- if I may be so bold--and here he raised his voice to the insinuating higher register--"who, may I inquire, paid for them?" |
40735 | Who? 40735 Who_ is_ Miss Primrose?" |
40735 | Who_ was_ this here Michael the Angelo? |
40735 | Whom do we know in New York, Letitia? |
40735 | Why I am going to New York? |
40735 | Why not? |
40735 | Why should you know one? |
40735 | Why tell an idyl, when you can live one, little Chloe, little wild olive? 40735 Why, at Rugby, sir--""And what, pray, has Rugby, or a thousand Rugbys, to do with your wilful disobedience?" |
40735 | Why, confound you, what do you mean by telling me I do n''t know my own business? |
40735 | Why, darn your skin,said Colonel Shears,"why not? |
40735 | Why, do n''t you remember Hiram Ptolemy and Peggy Neal? |
40735 | Why, gentlemen? 40735 Why,"said his mother,"do n''t you know? |
40735 | Will I die? |
40735 | Will I? 40735 Will you come in, suh?" |
40735 | Wouldst thou love God? |
40735 | Yes,said Letitia,"did you know him, too?" |
40735 | Yes? |
40735 | Yes? |
40735 | Yet in lieu of these,Dove once replied,"she has her day''s work and her church and books--""But are they enough for a woman, do you think?" |
40735 | You are? |
40735 | You did? |
40735 | You have heard from him then? |
40735 | You hear from her often, I suppose? |
40735 | You here again? |
40735 | You here, Bertram? |
40735 | You will go, Letitia? |
40735 | You will go? |
40735 | You, Letitia? |
40735 | Your own? |
40735 | _ Did_ I? |
40735 | _ I?_"You,I repeated. |
40735 | _ I_ made you swallow them? |
40735 | _ Rugby!_ And what of Rugby? |
40735 | _ This_ June? |
40735 | _ Us_, Letitia? |
40735 | ''You hear often, I suppose?'' |
40735 | ''_ Are n''t_ you playing, Brown?'' |
40735 | Ablative of what? |
40735 | And Mr. Ptolemy-- why can I never remember the name of his hotel?" |
40735 | And if I refuse''em, why, then, they just naturally up and say,''Well, you printed Primrose''s; why not mine?'' |
40735 | And what d''I do it for? |
40735 | And what did he say to that?" |
40735 | And why not kiss me? |
40735 | And, in conclusion, I want to ask right here: who''s a- payin''for them there decorations?" |
40735 | Are you hurt? |
40735 | Are you-- are you interested-- in science?" |
40735 | Bob?" |
40735 | Bob?" |
40735 | Bob?" |
40735 | Bob?" |
40735 | But can you tell me, please, if Mr. Hiram De Lancey Percival lives here?" |
40735 | But the addresses?" |
40735 | Butters?" |
40735 | Butters?" |
40735 | Butters?" |
40735 | Butters?" |
40735 | Butters?" |
40735 | Ca n''t you guess, my dear? |
40735 | Ca n''t you speak?" |
40735 | Can you remember that?" |
40735 | D''you think I''ve got time to be talking to every young sprig like you?" |
40735 | Did I not, my son?" |
40735 | Did n''t you know?" |
40735 | Did she never yearn for little old Grassy Ford again? |
40735 | Did you never hear of the_ Vicar of Wakefield_?" |
40735 | Did you see her dress? |
40735 | Did you see the rings on her fingers? |
40735 | Do I look so helpless?" |
40735 | Do all Devonshire roads lead up to Tavistock?" |
40735 | Do n''t you remember those books you left for us?--in our old school- room?--on the shelf?" |
40735 | Do n''t you remember? |
40735 | Do you remember where I sat-- there by the window? |
40735 | Do you want to be speckled like your ugly old mother- hen?" |
40735 | Do you wonder, Bertram?" |
40735 | Does Aunt Letty know?" |
40735 | Eh? |
40735 | Eh?" |
40735 | Good Lord, what hat?" |
40735 | Had ever man so exasperating an antagonist? |
40735 | Had she not spread that slice on Sun Dial, never to forget? |
40735 | Had the modern schools produced an Abraham Lincoln, he wished to know? |
40735 | Have you your grip with you?" |
40735 | He said it was a pity you would never be knighted, and once he drew for you your escutcheon-- you do n''t remember? |
40735 | How did she like New York? |
40735 | How did you guess it?" |
40735 | How had her health been? |
40735 | How is my mother?" |
40735 | How then should any one so coolly virtuous know trial or passion? |
40735 | How''s that?" |
40735 | How''s the old gentleman?" |
40735 | If not quite dead, why were they kept so long a- dying there? |
40735 | Is father home?" |
40735 | Is the first number ready yet?" |
40735 | It was a wonderful journey, I then admit, and I do not blame them for their pridefulness, but what, I ask, would they have done without my map? |
40735 | It would teach them the beauty of manly-- Why do you laugh?" |
40735 | It''s about-- father,_ you''ll_ tell her--""Tell her?" |
40735 | It''s my old sermon of environment, I know; but why are you here?--and why am I? |
40735 | Lord?" |
40735 | Me she ignored at pleasure; could it be possible, I wondered, that she was determined to renounce the whole round world as well? |
40735 | Meanwhile, wo n''t you be seated?" |
40735 | Might not summer- boarders, Letitia asked, bear a surer, more golden harvest than those worn- out fields? |
40735 | Mr. Bob in India?" |
40735 | No school, Letitia?" |
40735 | No? |
40735 | Now what could be troubling the lad, I wondered? |
40735 | Now, that''s nice, is n''t it? |
40735 | Now, who in thunder cares a tinker''s damn for Theocritus, in Grassy Ford? |
40735 | Percival?" |
40735 | Percival?" |
40735 | Percival?" |
40735 | Question: how do authors get their books accepted?_""Yes-- how do they?" |
40735 | Question: how do authors get their books accepted?_""Yes-- how do they?" |
40735 | Remember how Velveteens caught Tom up a tree?" |
40735 | Shall we go into the other room?" |
40735 | She might, perhaps, make a tale or two of the Archer in Lincoln Green, but what is the romance of an archer without the lady in it? |
40735 | Surely so young a saint could have no warm impetuous hours to remember, no sweet abandonment, no pretty idyls-- had she even a spring- time to recall? |
40735 | Tell Aunt Letty what?" |
40735 | Tell what?" |
40735 | That night, when the last guest had departed, I asked Letitia,"Well, what do you think of the author?" |
40735 | The brooks run on so gayly as before, and why not they as well? |
40735 | Then may I ask when you_ made_ them a part of it, Miss Primrose?" |
40735 | To leave at four o''clock, to return at nine and find one open which had been shut before!--is it not the gardener''s morning joy? |
40735 | VI AN OLD FRIEND OF OURS"Oh, I know the town,"I had told them confidently-- had I not been there in 18--? |
40735 | Was I wrong to ask her without consulting you?" |
40735 | Was she quite happy? |
40735 | What could this discord be? |
40735 | What did I say? |
40735 | What do girls talk so long about? |
40735 | What do you say to a summer in England, boy?" |
40735 | What had I to do with tombs? |
40735 | What had they expected, he asked at home? |
40735 | What have I done? |
40735 | What is it? |
40735 | What is it?" |
40735 | What of that?... |
40735 | What right had any one to assume that I had not long planned to go a- fishing that very morning? |
40735 | What right have you to avoid the burdens your fellows bear?--to be in bliss, while they are suffering? |
40735 | What was the lion roaring of so gently there? |
40735 | What were the formulæ? |
40735 | What were the rules and their exceptions? |
40735 | What will your parents say if they come, as parents should, to see the property for which they pay a tribute to the state?" |
40735 | Where are you?" |
40735 | Where have I heard that name? |
40735 | Where?" |
40735 | Which one to- night, Suzanne?" |
40735 | Who knows what befell the edition of that memorable_ Gazette_ which contained"Jerusalem,"set solid, a mighty column of Alexandrine lines? |
40735 | Why ablative of time? |
40735 | Why ca n''t he wait till next?" |
40735 | Why do n''t you?" |
40735 | Why does a fellow learn such stuff? |
40735 | Why not hunt old friends? |
40735 | Why, I asked, and as reproachfully as I could make the question-- why had she never told me? |
40735 | Why, I wondered, had she been so curious about long journeys? |
40735 | Why, always, did the whole school turn so knowingly to you? |
40735 | Will you never grow up?" |
40735 | With what balm of sympathy and cheer would the new Letitia heal those wounds? |
40735 | Would Letitia be as mild, I wondered? |
40735 | Would no kind, sunny soul in mercy free them from their pallid misery? |
40735 | Would she not publish it, she was asked, pleadingly? |
40735 | You admit it, then? |
40735 | You''re so pale, Peggy-- and your eyes-- and your hair-- Peggy, what_ have_ you done to your hair?" |
40735 | _ How_ does a fellow know_ eruptionem_? |
40735 | _ You_ paid for them?" |
40735 | we asked ourselves-- this strange impassiveness, this disapproval, as it seemed to us-- negative, but no less obvious for that? |
40735 | whose little boy is this?" |
10429 | ''See,he said,"how long have they been married?" |
10429 | A civil wedding? 10429 Ai n''t it nice with nobody home?" |
10429 | Ai n''t you been to that big hotel in Savannah, Georgia? |
10429 | An inheritance-- really? 10429 And Bobby Larkin?" |
10429 | And get turned out of this house, as you would be? |
10429 | And what instruments do you play? |
10429 | And what of that? 10429 Anything about Lulu?" |
10429 | Are you going to take Jenny and Bobby too? |
10429 | Are you serious, Nin? |
10429 | Bedtime,his wife elucidated, and added:"Lulu, will you take her to bed? |
10429 | Bobby,said Di,"are you going to let her lead you home?" |
10429 | But if we do n''t tell, what''ll they think then? |
10429 | But is it him? |
10429 | But then how can you tell what songs to order? |
10429 | But why not? |
10429 | But you''re not so very used----Oh, was n''t he? |
10429 | But, Dwight-- is it_ nice?_from his Ina. |
10429 | But, Lulu, do n''t you think it might be better to keep, well-- out of sight for a few days? |
10429 | Ca n''t I make her a little milk toast? |
10429 | Ca n''t you get mother to come out? |
10429 | Ca n''t you remember? |
10429 | Ca n''t you understand anything? |
10429 | Can I sell you an upright? |
10429 | Can we? |
10429 | Can you imagine how such a ridiculous report started? |
10429 | Could you give me the address of Mr. Ninian Deacon? |
10429 | Could you risk it with me? |
10429 | Could you tell me,she said timidly,"the name of the principal hotel in Millton?" |
10429 | Di,she said,"if you and Bobby want to get married, why not let us get you up a nice wedding at home?" |
10429 | Did n''t I just tell you? |
10429 | Did n''t he write to you? |
10429 | Did n''t it occur to you,said Dwight,"that he might have told you that because he did n''t want to have to go on with it?" |
10429 | Do n''t I? |
10429 | Do n''t I? |
10429 | Do n''t you like ragtime? |
10429 | Do you know of any job that I could get me? 10429 Do you know something?" |
10429 | Do you know why you think that? 10429 Do you need this?" |
10429 | Do you think I want everybody to know my brother did a thing like that? |
10429 | Do you think you could possibly stay here with me? |
10429 | Dwight darling, are you sure there''s no danger? |
10429 | Dwight-- I thought if you would n''t mind if I opened it--"Opened it? |
10429 | Eh, Lulu? |
10429 | Filling teeth? |
10429 | For pity sakes,she said,"do n''t you know how to do anything?" |
10429 | Gave you your choice? |
10429 | Had it up in the city, on expense? |
10429 | Had n''t we all better get the four- thirty to Warbleton? |
10429 | Have good weather? |
10429 | Have you been buying flowers? |
10429 | Her satchel? |
10429 | How I do what? |
10429 | How did you know? |
10429 | How does it? |
10429 | How long till another train? |
10429 | How much is salmon the can now? |
10429 | How the dickens did you think of pianos for a line? |
10429 | How would it hurt Di? |
10429 | How''s that, Lulu-- what are_ you_ wearing a bridal robe for-- eh? |
10429 | Hungry_ now?_Mrs. Bett was hungry now. |
10429 | I do n''t think you ought to-- holy things----what''s the_ matter_, Dwightie? |
10429 | I? |
10429 | If everything is over between you, why should you? |
10429 | If there was anything I could do at any time, you''d let me know, would n''t you? |
10429 | Ina,said Lulu,"first ca n''t we hear something about your visit? |
10429 | Is he coming? |
10429 | Is it Miss Lulu Bett? |
10429 | Is it about getting work? |
10429 | Is n''t he here? 10429 Is n''t he?" |
10429 | Is n''t it a pretty city? |
10429 | Is n''t it understood that my mail ca n''t wait like this? |
10429 | Is n''t she coming to her supper? |
10429 | Is n''t that like a woman? |
10429 | Is that all you can think of? |
10429 | Is that what it is, papa? |
10429 | Is that why you made fun of me all the time? |
10429 | It would mean running away, would n''t it? |
10429 | It''s Ina, is n''t it? |
10429 | It''s nothing to you that we have a brother who''s a bigamist? |
10429 | Just a little? 10429 Last night?" |
10429 | Leave your mother? 10429 Let''s see-- you mean Dwight Deacon, I guess?" |
10429 | Letters-- documents of any sort? 10429 Look here,"Dwight went on persuasively,"had n''t you and he had some little tiff when he told you?" |
10429 | Look here,said Dwight Herbert,"who is it sits home and has_ ice_ cream put in her lap, like a queen?" |
10429 | Look here,said Ninian,"are n''t you going?" |
10429 | Lulie, was your husband married? |
10429 | Lulie,she said,"was his other wife-- was she_ there_?" |
10429 | Lulu sing? 10429 Lulu,"said Dwight,"on Di''s account will you promise us to let this thing rest with us three?" |
10429 | Lulu,said Dwight,"really? |
10429 | Lulu? |
10429 | Mamma,Di whispered then, like escaping steam,"is n''t Uncle Ninian coming too?" |
10429 | Married? |
10429 | Marrying folks, then? |
10429 | Me too? |
10429 | Me? |
10429 | Mother,said Lulu,"when Di went away just now, was she carrying a satchel?" |
10429 | My dear Lulu, now why revive anything? 10429 Nice? |
10429 | Nothing else? |
10429 | Nothing whatever? |
10429 | Of course,said Lulu,"of course you won''t-- you wouldn''t--""Say anything?" |
10429 | Oh, Bobby, will you pump while I hold this? |
10429 | Oh, how''d you get along last night? |
10429 | Oh,she said,"what will mamma say?" |
10429 | Or Mrs.? |
10429 | Proofs? |
10429 | Really, darling? |
10429 | See that? 10429 See them to talk to?" |
10429 | See-- where were they then? |
10429 | See? 10429 Shall I wait for the butter- woman or get some creamery?" |
10429 | Should you, Miss Lulu? |
10429 | So I can come in, ca n''t I? |
10429 | Sue him? 10429 Suitors?" |
10429 | Sure you liked it, Miss Lulu? |
10429 | Sure? |
10429 | That is very nearly salmoney, is n''t it? |
10429 | That your apology? |
10429 | Then what are you going to do? |
10429 | Then you care nothing for our feelings in this matter? |
10429 | They were? |
10429 | They''re so-- so--"You have n''t had but two, have you? |
10429 | To have a thing like that in the family? 10429 To the city?" |
10429 | Truly, Lulu,said Ina,"would n''t that be best? |
10429 | Vanilly or chocolate? |
10429 | Was he-- about the letter, you know? |
10429 | Was n''t she married when she thought she was? |
10429 | Was n''t you expecting anybody to meet you? |
10429 | Was there anything to prevent your speaking of that before? |
10429 | Well then, what are you doing here? |
10429 | Well, but he''s here with you, is n''t he? |
10429 | Well, but mercy,said Ina,"could n''t he find out now?" |
10429 | Well, ca n''t I tell Bobby and Jenny she''s here? |
10429 | Well, then, why did n''t he say so here? |
10429 | Well, what have we on the festive board to- night? |
10429 | Well, where have_ you_ been? |
10429 | Well, why do n''t you say what for? |
10429 | Well,said Ina practically,"what does he say?" |
10429 | Well--"I mean, did Ninian give you any money? |
10429 | Well? |
10429 | What about_ my_ pride? |
10429 | What are you two whispering about? 10429 What can anybody be thinking of to call just at meal- time?" |
10429 | What did they say? |
10429 | What did you think it was? 10429 What did you wish to see me about?" |
10429 | What difference does it make what they think?. |
10429 | What do I think of him? 10429 What do people say to people,"she wondered,"when it''s like this?" |
10429 | What do you mean? |
10429 | What do you think I came for to- night? |
10429 | What do you think I have to tell you? |
10429 | What else? |
10429 | What excuse have you to offer? |
10429 | What if I brought him up to- night? |
10429 | What if it was Di? |
10429 | What is it, Lulu? |
10429 | What made him conclude, by then, that you ought to be told? |
10429 | What may we expect? |
10429 | What next do you say? |
10429 | What on earth did you do it for? |
10429 | What say? |
10429 | What time did you get home? |
10429 | What would the folks think of me, going on so? |
10429 | What would you have me do? |
10429 | What you talking? |
10429 | What''d he say? |
10429 | What''s that to you? |
10429 | What''s that? |
10429 | What''s the use of finding fault with Inie? 10429 What''s them?" |
10429 | What''s this? |
10429 | What''s this? |
10429 | What''s this? |
10429 | What''s your name? |
10429 | What? |
10429 | Where did you get a wheel- chair, for mercy sakes? |
10429 | Where did you go? |
10429 | Where is little daughter to- night? |
10429 | Where were you two-- since you make such a mystery? |
10429 | Where you been mostly? |
10429 | Where''d you have it? |
10429 | Where''s Di? |
10429 | Where''s Lulie? |
10429 | Where''s my beautiful straw hat? 10429 Where''s your mother, Ina?" |
10429 | Where? |
10429 | Where? |
10429 | Which kind of a Mr. are you? |
10429 | Who said he''s here? |
10429 | Who said we wanted to be married? |
10429 | Who, me? |
10429 | Who? |
10429 | Whom did you see? |
10429 | Whose Bert? |
10429 | Why could n''t I have said that? |
10429 | Why did he tell you at all, then? |
10429 | Why did you do it? |
10429 | Why do n''t she? |
10429 | Why do n''t she? |
10429 | Why not all walk down? 10429 Why not say the wedding service?" |
10429 | Why not? |
10429 | Why not? |
10429 | Why set people wondering till we have to? |
10429 | Why should I have anything to do about Lulu? |
10429 | Why, Di,she said,"do you feel that way too?" |
10429 | Why, not till you tell me I can,said Cornish,"but wo n''t everybody know now?" |
10429 | Why, what would they think? |
10429 | Why? |
10429 | Why? |
10429 | Will you be more careful of your grammar or shall I speak to you again? |
10429 | Wo n''t you please write it down for me? |
10429 | Would it, Ina? 10429 Would n''t it be fun to elope and surprise the whole school?" |
10429 | Would you have done that? |
10429 | Would you? |
10429 | Yes, but, Dwight, what do you think of him? |
10429 | Yes, but, Dwight, where has she gone? 10429 Yes-- well, what did he_ say_?" |
10429 | You certainly did not so far forget us, Lulu, as to go on the street in that dress? |
10429 | You do n''t mean just the cooking? |
10429 | You do n''t? 10429 You dress for me; Ina, are n''t you jealous? |
10429 | You folks expect me? |
10429 | You know that, do n''t you? |
10429 | You like sacred music? |
10429 | You opened the letter? |
10429 | You sure? |
10429 | You tell me this: Do they know? 10429 You think that?" |
10429 | You want me to promise what? |
10429 | You were with her-- where in the world had you been? 10429 You will?" |
10429 | You will? |
10429 | You wo n''t give it to me? |
10429 | You''ll be all right, mother? |
10429 | You_ bought_ it? |
10429 | You_ picked_ the flower on the plant? |
10429 | Your feeling? |
10429 | Your new one? |
10429 | _ Di?_He had Lulu''s eyes now. |
10429 | _ No_ salmon? |
10429 | _ What''s_ this? |
10429 | _ Where_ are you going? |
10429 | ***** When Di and Monona had been excused, Dwight asked:"Nothing new from the bride and groom?" |
10429 | A very little?" |
10429 | After waitin''so long?" |
10429 | Ai n''t this Ina?" |
10429 | And Ina?" |
10429 | And Nin into-- say, Nin, what are you, anyway?" |
10429 | And before they left Lulu said:"Dwight-- you ca n''t tell how long you''ll be gone?" |
10429 | And he had n''t seen Dwight? |
10429 | And how should she deal? |
10429 | And of course I said,''What?'' |
10429 | And on hearing that Lulu had an errand, added still more sisterly;"Well, but mercy, what you so dressed up for?" |
10429 | And some one"made up a likely story to soothe her own pride-- you know how they do that?" |
10429 | And then cried rudely:"What are you here for?" |
10429 | And was he not a magistrate? |
10429 | And what did Lulu care what Ina liked? |
10429 | And where did he really hope to get? |
10429 | And whose disgrace is it, pray?" |
10429 | And,"Whose dog?" |
10429 | Any sort of assurance that he was speaking the truth?" |
10429 | Are n''t_ you_ going to sing?" |
10429 | Are you a little girl or are you our grown- up young lady?" |
10429 | Assistant justice or assistant dentist-- which? |
10429 | At length she was obliged to say,"Like me to- day?" |
10429 | Bobby now first spoke:"Who''s glum?" |
10429 | But I did n''t think--""You did n''t think what?" |
10429 | But Ina said tensely:"_ Is_ it nonsense? |
10429 | But at length she did say:"Why does n''t Di come? |
10429 | But what else could I do?" |
10429 | But what was she to_ do_? |
10429 | But when all this had spent itself, what was she herself to do? |
10429 | But why not let Dwight do it in his own way? |
10429 | But_ how_ did she do that?" |
10429 | Ca n''t we have a secret if we want one?" |
10429 | Ca n''t you run up and slip on another dress?" |
10429 | Come on and hear my prayers, why do n''t you?" |
10429 | Cornish cried warmly,"then everything_ was n''t_ all right last night?" |
10429 | Could Dwight and Ina come to her while she was still able to visit? |
10429 | Could anything be more pleasant?" |
10429 | Di had no answer save her furious flush, and Mrs. Bett went on:"Did n''t I tell you? |
10429 | Did Di Deacon take that train?" |
10429 | Did Mr. Cornish come to see you?" |
10429 | Did he give you any proofs?" |
10429 | Do n''t you ever go anywheres?" |
10429 | Do n''t you think mamma knows best?" |
10429 | Do n''t you want to? |
10429 | Do you have to work like this all the time? |
10429 | Do you like me?" |
10429 | Do you?" |
10429 | Dwight''s eyes narrowed:"My dear Lulu,"he said,"are you_ sure_ of that?" |
10429 | Have n''t I been trying and trying to find out where the black satchel went? |
10429 | Have n''t you noticed that?" |
10429 | Have you no delicacy?" |
10429 | He had found the house all right? |
10429 | He said he thought about telling us right there in the restaurant, but of course that''d been hard-- wouldn''t it? |
10429 | Her and Di? |
10429 | Her first question was:"Who''s going to do your work?" |
10429 | Her"Could you leave me another bottle of milk this morning?" |
10429 | His whole manner was a mute testimony to his participation in the eternal query: How did I get into it? |
10429 | How long was it? |
10429 | How much, Dwight?" |
10429 | How should I tell?" |
10429 | How was she to go on? |
10429 | I ca n''t....""You''d rather they''d know he fooled you, when he had another wife?" |
10429 | I mean about your going after her?" |
10429 | I mean that I''d know how to do? |
10429 | I s''pose because I''m most thirty- four and new things ai n''t so easy any more-- but what have I got or what''ll I ever have? |
10429 | I take it you do n''t intend to sue Ninian?" |
10429 | I''ve often watched you there--""You have?" |
10429 | III JUNE On a June morning Dwight Herbert Deacon looked at the sky, and said with his manner of originating it:"How about a picnic this afternoon?" |
10429 | If it was Dwight-- and they did n''t know whether he had another wife, or not, and you wanted to ask him-- oh, do n''t you see? |
10429 | If_ this_ was why Di was leaving home...."But, Di,"she cried,"do you love Bobby Larkin?" |
10429 | In October he might be heard asking:"Where''s my beautiful fall coat?" |
10429 | Ina''s conception of hostess- ship was definite: A volley of questions-- was his train on time? |
10429 | Ina, with her blank, upward look, exclaimed:"To-_day?_""First class day, it looks like to me." |
10429 | Is he?" |
10429 | Is it all right?" |
10429 | Is n''t everybody?" |
10429 | Is n''t it?" |
10429 | Is there anything to this absurd tale?" |
10429 | It was as if the sound shattered a thousand filaments-- where? |
10429 | Know what?" |
10429 | Lulu said:"I thought it was Di that you--""Miss Di? |
10429 | Lulu was thinking:"What shall I say? |
10429 | Nature''s tonic-- eh? |
10429 | Ninian made a great show of selecting a table, changed once, called the waiter"my man"and rubbed soft hands on"What do you say? |
10429 | No good can come by--""But why should n''t I have his address?" |
10429 | Oh, but wo n''t he bring up some songs some evening, for them to try over? |
10429 | Oh, could he? |
10429 | Oh, would Ina like that? |
10429 | Or were her own eyes new? |
10429 | Or,"W- well, it_ is n''t_ Lulu Bett any more, is it? |
10429 | Say, why do n''t you send it to his brother? |
10429 | Say, why in time do n''t you come in the other room?" |
10429 | See?" |
10429 | Shall it be lobster?" |
10429 | She caught his speculative look-- he had heard a tale or two concerning her return, as who in Warbleton had not heard? |
10429 | She cut a fresh cake, filled a plate, called to Di, saying:"Take some out to that Bobby Larkin, why do n''t you?" |
10429 | She had been there but once, years ago-- how could she ever find anybody? |
10429 | She heard Dwight''s concerned"Is that so?" |
10429 | She put it to her sister fairly: Now, no matter what Dwight''s way was, would n''t that be better? |
10429 | So at last Dwight said tentatively at lunch:"What if I brought that Neil Cornish up for supper, one of these nights?" |
10429 | So that after all it was a relief to Lulu to hear Dwight ask casually:"By the way, Lulu, have n''t I got some mail somewhere about?" |
10429 | Take off your hat, why do n''t you?" |
10429 | Teasing her about him, were they? |
10429 | The dog- kennel part-- wasn''t that the queerest thing? |
10429 | The evening had been to her a light from heaven-- how could she find anything to say? |
10429 | The less you say about it the better, for all our sakes--_you_ see that, do n''t you?" |
10429 | Their progeny will not eat? |
10429 | Then he found himself looking off the page, stabbed by a reflection which always stabbed him anew: Was he really getting anywhere with his law? |
10429 | There, by Jove, now have we entertained you, or have n''t we?" |
10429 | These details Dwight interrupted: Could n''t Lulu remember that he liked sage on the chops? |
10429 | To Lulu he said kindly,"Do n''t you play, Miss--?" |
10429 | To every one with whom they spoke in the aisle after church, Ina announced their news: Had they heard? |
10429 | Was he not taking her to the city? |
10429 | Was it possible that Di was suffering in the air of that home as she herself suffered? |
10429 | We_ did n''t_ elope, did we?" |
10429 | Well, but whom has she got to blame for it?" |
10429 | Well, ca n''t you see how it''d hurt her?" |
10429 | Well, what are you doing here? |
10429 | Well, where you hiding that handsome husband of yours? |
10429 | Well, why ca n''t they know the truth?" |
10429 | Well, you are a funny....""You wanted me to lie?" |
10429 | What am I going to do?" |
10429 | What can be supplied? |
10429 | What did it mean? |
10429 | What do you s''pose? |
10429 | What do you say, Ina-- considering Di and all?" |
10429 | What has she done?" |
10429 | What have you got that for?" |
10429 | What is this? |
10429 | What was one to think? |
10429 | What was she going to do? |
10429 | What was this, was their progeny hurt? |
10429 | What you going to say to that?" |
10429 | When Dwight inquired playfully,"Do n''t we look like company?" |
10429 | When only strange names and strange writing presented themselves there, he said:"Tried the parlour?" |
10429 | When they had gone on,"What do you mean by my having to put up with you?" |
10429 | When was he coming and what was he coming for? |
10429 | Where could she go? |
10429 | Where had she gone, with whom had she talked, what had she told? |
10429 | Where had you and Aunt Lulu been with mamma''s new bag?" |
10429 | Where is he?" |
10429 | Where were you both?" |
10429 | Where were you?" |
10429 | Where''d you been if she had n''t married?" |
10429 | Which way did she go?" |
10429 | Who was it that had lived in a boat throughout youth if not he? |
10429 | Who would have thought it of her? |
10429 | Why did n''t you tell them you''re not?" |
10429 | Why do n''t I send her over a baked apple? |
10429 | Why indeed?" |
10429 | Why not be sensible and leave this alone? |
10429 | Why, do n''t the disgrace--""What disgrace?" |
10429 | Would Bobby consider taking charge of the grass? |
10429 | Would it hurt Di?" |
10429 | Would n''t that be better?" |
10429 | Would she be adult if she were let alone? |
10429 | Yes, it made a man feel a certain confidence...."_ Do n''t_ it?" |
10429 | You ai n''t been and got married twice, have you? |
10429 | You came to see me?" |
10429 | You have it, have n''t you, Dwight?" |
10429 | You hear him? |
10429 | You know the kind of girl?" |
10429 | You said I must n''t tell the truth till I had the proofs...""Tell who?" |
10429 | You see that, do n''t you?" |
10429 | You think the disgrace of bigamy in this family is something the whole town will have to know about?" |
10429 | You wo n''t? |
10429 | You would n''t mind if I did open it?" |
10429 | You''d like that, would n''t you-- going South?" |
10429 | You''ll be sure,"she added,"not to say anything about what was in the letter?" |
10429 | You_ will_ have to tell now, wo n''t you? |
10429 | _ Lulu_?" |
10429 | _ To- night_? |
32920 | Ah, what have I done? 32920 And Robert? |
32920 | And am I the first? 32920 And for two whole years you propose to shut yourself up in a hospital?" |
32920 | And never flirted, nor run after a pretty girl? |
32920 | And pray, what did you talk about? |
32920 | And so she is going to run away, a make- believe little journey of two or three hours? 32920 And why not? |
32920 | And-- afterwards? |
32920 | And-- when you_ do n''t_ marry? 32920 Are n''t you going to congratulate me, Jean?" |
32920 | Are you by any chance a soldier? |
32920 | But are you blissfully, ecstatically, unspeakably happy-- almost too happy to live? |
32920 | But you do n''t believe, you ca n''t seriously believe that that is possible? |
32920 | Ca n''t you, Miggles? 32920 Could n''t you contrive to reduce work while you are laid up, dear? |
32920 | Dearest boy, I''m sorry-- dreadfully, dreadfully sorry for all those poor people; but you and I have not much to lose, have we? 32920 Did you,` tell things''to Aunt Mary?" |
32920 | Do you mind? 32920 Doubt is forbidden, I suppose, with other repinings? |
32920 | Fine or superfine? |
32920 | Gloucester? 32920 Had n''t you better take some cooking lessons, or something?" |
32920 | Have you come at last? 32920 Have you fallen in love with me for my looks?" |
32920 | Have you really just arrived, or is that merely a figure of speech? 32920 Have you thought, dear; have you any idea what you will do?" |
32920 | He admires her desperately, does n''t he? 32920 He had told you-- you knew? |
32920 | How are you now, dear? 32920 How can I live, looking on, always looking on, having no part? |
32920 | How can you be engaged? 32920 How could we not? |
32920 | How did she help you, dear? 32920 How do you do, Miss Strangeways? |
32920 | How do you do? 32920 How shall I bear it?" |
32920 | I was not an elf then-- one of the number who was honoured by your attentions? |
32920 | Is he_ sure_, dear? 32920 Is it a girl or a boy?" |
32920 | Is it because you are--_tired_ of me, Piers? |
32920 | Is it serious? |
32920 | Is it? |
32920 | Is n''t it lovely? 32920 Is n''t that partly physical, do n''t you think? |
32920 | Is that all you have to say? 32920 May I ask what Piers has to say?" |
32920 | May I give you some advice? |
32920 | Miggles, how can you be so callous? 32920 Miggles, how would you like it if I came down to live with you at Seacliff? |
32920 | Mrs Rendall? 32920 My Heart, why worry about Jean? |
32920 | Not? 32920 Piers, my dear,"said Mrs Rendall primly,"will you ask a blessing?" |
32920 | Robert, are you ill? 32920 Service in what capacity? |
32920 | Shall I_ never_ feel? |
32920 | Shall we? |
32920 | Snake- charming, you mean, the boy in the basket, the mango trick? 32920 So you have pleasant anticipations concerning our glen? |
32920 | The Happy Land? |
32920 | Then why is she leaving town so suddenly? |
32920 | Then, what do you say-- shall we go to the balcony? 32920 Tired? |
32920 | Vanna helped you? |
32920 | Vanna, you remember what I said to you about Miggles? 32920 Was I blind and deaf? |
32920 | Was that_ you_ laughing just now? 32920 What did they want this time, Miggles? |
32920 | What do you mean? |
32920 | What do you take me for, Jean? 32920 What do you think it means to me? |
32920 | What does it matter to me if every soul belonging to you were mad? 32920 What does it mean?" |
32920 | What is it that makes the difference, the yawning, illimitable difference between just one person and all the rest of the world? 32920 What is it, dearie? |
32920 | What is the matter with that girl? |
32920 | What is the matter? 32920 What should I do without you, child?" |
32920 | What time was that? 32920 What would you think if I asked the same promise of you? |
32920 | What would_ you_ do if you were in our place? 32920 What, darling? |
32920 | What_ is_ it? |
32920 | When were you warned? 32920 When will lunch be ready, mother? |
32920 | Where is he? |
32920 | Where shall you go? |
32920 | Who the dickens? |
32920 | Why not? 32920 Why should I, dear child? |
32920 | Why should you not? 32920 Why this fervour? |
32920 | Will I write? 32920 Will you give it to me? |
32920 | You are sure you want us? 32920 You did n''t like him, then?" |
32920 | You refuse to be prudent in regard to the most important happening of your life? |
32920 | You wo n''t take my advice? |
32920 | You would find it easier to leave me? |
32920 | _ How_ much do you love me? |
32920 | _ To- day_? |
32920 | _ What_ did you call me? |
32920 | _ Why did we ever meet_? |
32920 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ How does one live through the first days of an intolerable grief? |
32920 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------"The happiest moment of my wedding day?" |
32920 | A day or two more or less-- what does it matter? |
32920 | A female Piers?" |
32920 | A good haul?" |
32920 | A ring? |
32920 | After all, would she have been more content if Piers had_ not_ rebelled? |
32920 | Am I not more to thee than ten sons?" |
32920 | Am I not right, sir?'' |
32920 | And Piers Rendall? |
32920 | And if they did, is it all joy to be a father? |
32920 | And if they''re matted,_ can_ they bloom? |
32920 | And it''s always the same description:` do you mind if I bring a man home to dinner to- night? |
32920 | And now? |
32920 | And one day, Piers,_ you_ came along-- do you remember? |
32920 | And when she queried blankly,"Her headache?" |
32920 | And you really like it-- this buried- alive existence? |
32920 | And you remember those dining- room curtains that I sent to be dyed? |
32920 | And you went on playing? |
32920 | And you''ll stay until it is over, wo n''t you, and keep house, and look after Robert, when I''m upstairs? |
32920 | Are n''t you anxious; are n''t you curious? |
32920 | Are n''t you pleased? |
32920 | Are n''t you well?" |
32920 | Are n''t you, dear?" |
32920 | Are the stories true, for instance, that one hears of these native jugglers?" |
32920 | Are you glad to be back in England; and how does it look to you after your long absence? |
32920 | Are you going to stay at home?" |
32920 | Are you quite sure that you can make her happy? |
32920 | Are you sorry to leave India and settle at home? |
32920 | Are you sure that the joy equals the pain? |
32920 | Are you thinking of some one you know, some particular person who is included in this happy category?" |
32920 | Are you tired, dear? |
32920 | Better so than to run the risk of satiety, and the hastening of that day when the dread question might arise:"What next?" |
32920 | But are you quite sure you wo n''t be bored? |
32920 | But how to do it?" |
32920 | But however-- what was I talking about? |
32920 | But when it is only to bring a worse pain upon you, how can I help regretting? |
32920 | But why? |
32920 | But you-- if_ you_ hadn''t!--Robert, what should I have done? |
32920 | Ca n''t we be content just to be together-- like this? |
32920 | Ca n''t we be content to wait-- to suffer if it must be, in the hope of all that is to come? |
32920 | Ca n''t we follow their example? |
32920 | Ca n''t we lift our love above the ordinary human conception? |
32920 | Ca n''t we manage it, somehow, Rob? |
32920 | Ca n''t we stick to the truth?" |
32920 | Ca n''t you give me credit for as much consistency as yourself? |
32920 | Ca n''t you hear her requiem? |
32920 | Ca n''t you hear?" |
32920 | Ca n''t you trust me still?" |
32920 | Can anything be more pitiful than the position of a woman who loves, and finds herself passed over in favour of a chosen friend? |
32920 | Can ten and sixpence buy peace, while a continent perishes? |
32920 | Can you believe it, Vanna;_ can_ you? |
32920 | Can you deny it?" |
32920 | Can you ever forget? |
32920 | Can you ever forgive me?" |
32920 | Can you imagine my suffering?" |
32920 | Can you tell me about them? |
32920 | Can you understand in the faintest degree that it is just because you have shown me what love can mean that I can not live my life alone? |
32920 | Could I see you, and talk to you, and listen to your praises from far and near, and keep my head? |
32920 | Could n''t we three go off together, and do something_ nice_? |
32920 | Could she not bear to stand aside, and say"God speed"? |
32920 | Could she not realise, and be consoled? |
32920 | Could you fancy a nice cup of tea?" |
32920 | Could you have discussed Robert with me while you were waiting? |
32920 | Darling, can you be brave?" |
32920 | Dear, good, kind little soul, why trouble yourself to find trouble? |
32920 | Dearest, is any human being really content? |
32920 | Did you ever try it with marmalade? |
32920 | Do all engaged lovers marry and live happily ever after? |
32920 | Do n''t you go about daily waiting to see what will happen?" |
32920 | Do you believe that I shall really grow old?" |
32920 | Do you despise me? |
32920 | Do you despise soldiers so heartily?" |
32920 | Do you find it a difficulty? |
32920 | Do you imagine I shall give her up?" |
32920 | Do you know in the least what you are like? |
32920 | Do you know_ why_ I cried? |
32920 | Do you need to ask? |
32920 | Do you remember Jean when she was engaged? |
32920 | Do you remember saying that it was little use to possess a Happy Land so far away that you could rarely see it? |
32920 | Do you think I want to refuse? |
32920 | Do you think it would not be bliss to me to give way too? |
32920 | Do you think me a faithless hound? |
32920 | Do you, can you, by any possible chance, belong to_ me_?" |
32920 | Does a woman wait all those months to be cheated at the end? |
32920 | Does he continue to smile through all the upsets, and forgettings, and domestic crises, such as you described to us at Seacliff? |
32920 | Does it interest you at all? |
32920 | Does n''t he look well? |
32920 | Does one grow tired of the sun?" |
32920 | Does she imagine that she can hide herself so easily? |
32920 | Does she reign by merit or by chance?" |
32920 | Does the girl expect to be immortal? |
32920 | Engaged_ not_ to be married? |
32920 | For how long?" |
32920 | Grieving after Jean, and feeling lonely to be left without your friend? |
32920 | Had anything been said to arouse her wrath? |
32920 | Had she convinced him against his will? |
32920 | Had she not already received her instructions-- that she was to feign an accident as an excuse for obliterating herself for the others''benefit? |
32920 | Have my strings marked my neck? |
32920 | Have we been here nearly an hour? |
32920 | Have you any definite idea of what is to happen-- or when?" |
32920 | Have you never loved any one before?" |
32920 | Have you never noticed how one child in a family seems to have inherited all the weaknesses and failings, while the others get off scot free? |
32920 | Have you seen a doctor? |
32920 | Have you seen her lately? |
32920 | Have you visited our glen in another incarnation, Miss Strangeways, that you remember its details so distinctly?" |
32920 | He admired her, of course-- what man would not admire Jean? |
32920 | He bit his lip, frowned, and demanded suddenly,"How long do you mean to stay?" |
32920 | He is a fine man; I like him-- but for Edith? |
32920 | He says,` What is the matter, dear?'' |
32920 | He--""Yes?" |
32920 | Honestly-- we are both her devoted slaves-- but honestly, is it by any virtue of her own? |
32920 | How are you feeling?" |
32920 | How can I grumble after that? |
32920 | How can it? |
32920 | How can you be so cold, so cruel? |
32920 | How can you insult me with such words? |
32920 | How can you meet? |
32920 | How can you talk about dying in that matter- of- fact way, as if it were a removal from one house to another? |
32920 | How could she go on tending Miggles, sitting quietly in the house, separated from Piers, seeing him with another? |
32920 | How could she realise the hunger of one who had stood continually outside the feast? |
32920 | How could we be engaged when we can never marry?" |
32920 | How could you explain? |
32920 | How could_ she_ bear it for his sake? |
32920 | How dare I shut them out?" |
32920 | How did he look when he first saw you alone?" |
32920 | How did the fishing go this morning? |
32920 | How did you guess? |
32920 | How did you know? |
32920 | How do I look? |
32920 | How do you feel?" |
32920 | How do you manage to decide these knotty points?" |
32920 | How has he come?" |
32920 | How is he? |
32920 | How is she looking? |
32920 | How long are you going to stay this time?" |
32920 | How long had she loved him? |
32920 | How long must I wait?" |
32920 | How long would Jean allow so unsatisfactory a state of affairs? |
32920 | How many parents and children-- grown- up children-- do you find who live together in sympathy and understanding? |
32920 | How many times have you visited your domain since we were here together in summer?" |
32920 | How much of Miggles''s happiness did she owe to this blessed capacity for sympathy in the interests of others? |
32920 | How shall I bear it? |
32920 | How shall one dare to put a limit to what is possible even in material things? |
32920 | How soon, and in what fashion would the dramatic meeting take place? |
32920 | How would he bear it if there were no escape? |
32920 | I am very grateful, but, but ca n''t you say you are_ glad_? |
32920 | I have loved you, I have given you my life-- how can I be free? |
32920 | I have too much sense of fitness to sport` Louis quinze''in country roads; but why do English bootmakers set their faces so sternly against insteps? |
32920 | I''m sorry for parents; but why do they grow so old? |
32920 | If Edith wished to appropriate this man for herself, why had she so hastened to bring him into the temptation of Jean Goring''s presence? |
32920 | If I ask,` is he a gentleman, Robert?'' |
32920 | If Jean were like me, and you loved her, but could not marry?" |
32920 | If he had fallen short of the ideal, was not she herself open to the same reproach? |
32920 | If we can never marry, why did we ever meet?" |
32920 | If you are contented to talk--""You mean it? |
32920 | If you could have heard them talking when they were alone, you would have found that it was almost always about the future-- When shall we be married? |
32920 | If you love me, how can you regret having given me the great joy of my life?" |
32920 | India?" |
32920 | Is he_ meant_ to be content? |
32920 | Is it agreed?" |
32920 | Is it possible that I could grow tired of_ you_?" |
32920 | Is it really possible?" |
32920 | Is n''t it wonderful? |
32920 | Is n''t the present rich enough to content us? |
32920 | Is that what is troubling you now?" |
32920 | Is there much credit in being calm and resigned over a thing you do n''t_ feel_? |
32920 | Is there no chance?" |
32920 | Is_ that_ what you want?" |
32920 | It is settled then? |
32920 | It would be fun, would n''t it, dear? |
32920 | It''s impossible that your life should be cold or bald--""Is it, Jean, is it? |
32920 | It''s the spirit that matters, is n''t it, dear-- the spirit, not the letter? |
32920 | It_ was_ you?" |
32920 | Lately? |
32920 | May I keep it?" |
32920 | May I speak to you for a moment?" |
32920 | Men are so fussy about capital... Vanna, do you realise that it is a whole year since I''ve seen you? |
32920 | More, a thousand times more, than when we were married; but, Vanna, can you believe it? |
32920 | Not Robert Gloucester? |
32920 | Not if you try very hard? |
32920 | Now are you content?" |
32920 | Now what was this? |
32920 | Of course every woman does not suffer as I have done; but then how many have a husband like Robert? |
32920 | Of what avail to rail against fate, when the effort could only revert on one''s own head in weariness and remorse? |
32920 | Of what use were sweet words if understanding were lacking? |
32920 | Ought she not to be grateful too? |
32920 | Our old landlord over at Sutton-- did you know the Dixons? |
32920 | Perhaps-- who knows? |
32920 | Piers and you? |
32920 | Piers, how_ can_ you love me with that knowledge in your mind? |
32920 | Piers, what have I done? |
32920 | Piers? |
32920 | Really absolutely settled?" |
32920 | Really? |
32920 | Really? |
32920 | She knows? |
32920 | She struggled with the oppression in her throat and breathed a breathless,"Where?" |
32920 | She was silent, smiling mischievously to herself for several minutes, then burst out suddenly:"Can you imagine it, Vanna? |
32920 | Should we think of each other any the less because we were at opposite ends of the world? |
32920 | Since I was here last? |
32920 | So you do n''t remember being here before, Vanna? |
32920 | Such a beautiful thought, was it not?" |
32920 | Surely Jean would not blame her, because when happiness had been placed into her hand she had not had strength to thrust it away? |
32920 | Surely out of the riches of her own wealth she would rejoice that some crumbs had fallen to her friend? |
32920 | Tell me, have you seen anything, had any extraordinary experiences? |
32920 | Thank me for_ what_? |
32920 | That you are attracted by her face, and her face alone? |
32920 | That''s the very_ latest_ from Paris, I suppose, miss?" |
32920 | The difference it makes-- the astounding difference--"_ What_ difference was it which her presence made? |
32920 | The doctor came at twelve, and said Joyce was perfectly well, but I looked feverish; could n''t I lie down and rest? |
32920 | The effect of that nap on the mossy ground? |
32920 | The future was desolated; and the past? |
32920 | The gravy was quite white... Why did the pudding fall to pieces?'' |
32920 | The half- hour, was n''t it-- half- past one? |
32920 | The lesson of her death? |
32920 | The poor fellow smiled and said:` ca n''t you hurry it on a bit?'' |
32920 | The question is,_ Am I justified_? |
32920 | There will be moments when I shall be gnawed with envy, but perhaps, who knows? |
32920 | There will be others..."But what woman fresh from her fiery trial can take comfort in that thought? |
32920 | This climax of bliss-- what could it be but a presage of the end? |
32920 | Those other lovers that you speak of, do they trouble their heads about marriage the first moment they are alone with their love? |
32920 | To take her to that lonely place, away from all her friends: can it be right? |
32920 | Vanna looked up at him, a wealth of devotion in the depths of her eloquent eyes, but her lips trembled over the words:"What can I say? |
32920 | Vanna, is it so hard?" |
32920 | Vanna, knowing the uncertainty of life, dare you,_ dare_ you refuse me my joy? |
32920 | Vanna, what do you say to running off to the country to- morrow-- you and I? |
32920 | Vanna-- do you think I am a beast?" |
32920 | Was he about to take her at her word? |
32920 | Was it not he who had first preached the beauty of a spiritual love? |
32920 | Was it true? |
32920 | Was it_ this_ you felt-- a foretaste of this joy-- when you walked into your kingdom and read its message? |
32920 | Was not the glen dedicated to happy thoughts? |
32920 | Was she by chance annoyed at this interruption to the visit? |
32920 | Was she too beginning to realise the bearing of this week upon her own life? |
32920 | Was that fair? |
32920 | Was that just? |
32920 | Was this the"little cry"which was to act as the prelude to the"nice cup of tea"? |
32920 | We talked about our last meeting, and he said:"` You remember what that fellow said to me? |
32920 | Well, what would_ you_ expect from that description? |
32920 | Well-- flourishing-- giving satisfaction-- as nice as ever?" |
32920 | Were n''t_ they_ gloriously happy?" |
32920 | Were you bored? |
32920 | What are you thinking about?" |
32920 | What brought you away from the gay capital before the end of the season?" |
32920 | What can you expect if they never get any attention? |
32920 | What can you have been? |
32920 | What can you say to comfort me?" |
32920 | What can you say to me, Vanna? |
32920 | What comfort had Vanna to offer? |
32920 | What could be done? |
32920 | What could he mean? |
32920 | What could it be? |
32920 | What could it be? |
32920 | What could she do? |
32920 | What could the future hold for her? |
32920 | What could you say? |
32920 | What did she say?" |
32920 | What do you propose to_ do_?" |
32920 | What do you say?" |
32920 | What does it matter what country one does it in? |
32920 | What for? |
32920 | What form does it take-- this presentiment of yours? |
32920 | What had he to say? |
32920 | What has gone? |
32920 | What has happened to her?" |
32920 | What have I left if you cast me off? |
32920 | What have we done to be cursed and set aside? |
32920 | What have_ you_ left? |
32920 | What is Jean to think? |
32920 | What is it? |
32920 | What is it?" |
32920 | What is it?" |
32920 | What is she like-- this mamma? |
32920 | What is so funny about bulbs?" |
32920 | What is the use of keeping up pretences-- you and I? |
32920 | What is troubling you to- day?" |
32920 | What must you think of me? |
32920 | What right have you on our holy ground?" |
32920 | What sort of heels are you wearing this afternoon, Jean?" |
32920 | What then? |
32920 | What was I saying, dear? |
32920 | What was it to her if Piers Rendall loved and wedded another woman? |
32920 | What was it? |
32920 | What was she like?" |
32920 | What words of comfort would she offer in her turn? |
32920 | What would Jean have to say to her great news? |
32920 | What would Robert say? |
32920 | What would people think?" |
32920 | What would she say? |
32920 | What would she think? |
32920 | What''s the good of sitting there like a mummy? |
32920 | When did you see her? |
32920 | When in the history of woman did she appreciate a service thus offered by a member of the opposite sex? |
32920 | When shall we be alone?" |
32920 | When? |
32920 | Whence came this sudden tide of happiness; this swift rush of blood through the veins? |
32920 | Whence had come the change? |
32920 | Where could she live? |
32920 | Where does that mean? |
32920 | Where in the name of mystery did you evolve it? |
32920 | Where is my baby?" |
32920 | Where is that old oak, I wonder? |
32920 | Where is your settled home?" |
32920 | Where now was the peace and conquest on which she had congratulated herself during the last few months? |
32920 | Where shall we go for our honeymoon? |
32920 | Where shall we live? |
32920 | Where will you live? |
32920 | Where? |
32920 | Who gave you that?" |
32920 | Who was your partner, by the way? |
32920 | Why ca n''t I take a leaf out of his book and be content and happy? |
32920 | Why can every one be happy except us? |
32920 | Why did he not use it? |
32920 | Why do n''t you speak? |
32920 | Why do we love each other like this? |
32920 | Why dwell upon the picture of a soul in torment? |
32920 | Why had Piers elected to stay on? |
32920 | Why has not one thought of that before? |
32920 | Why is he sure? |
32920 | Why is it not in the room?" |
32920 | Why not, if you wish it? |
32920 | Why not? |
32920 | Why not? |
32920 | Why on earth could they not have introduced him to me, instead of to you?" |
32920 | Why should I be sacrificed, a live woman, with all my powers strong within me, for the sake of problematic infants who may never arrive? |
32920 | Why should I be?" |
32920 | Why should I squander more weeks to satisfy a convention? |
32920 | Why should she be beautiful, and strong, and happy, and adored, while I am lonely, and sad, and tainted by disease? |
32920 | Why should such differences exist? |
32920 | Why were you so bleak and crusty to Piers yesterday? |
32920 | Why? |
32920 | Why?" |
32920 | Will you care to write to me still? |
32920 | Will you come to see us sometimes, and let us do what we can to help your life?" |
32920 | Will you graciously explain?" |
32920 | Will you write to me when you are away?" |
32920 | Women admired and loved her, and constantly asked of each other,"Why is she not married?" |
32920 | Would I be able to keep her for an hour while she promenaded with Lorna? |
32920 | Would I like to look at it? |
32920 | Would Vanna be justified in marrying? |
32920 | Would all the gratitude in the world cheer you if Robert went away?" |
32920 | Would he pine? |
32920 | Would it not, my dear?" |
32920 | Would she understand? |
32920 | Would you like to have me with you, dear? |
32920 | Would you like to have me?" |
32920 | Would you rather tell me now, or wait till later on? |
32920 | Yet what shame can there be in the acknowledgment of a natural magnetic force? |
32920 | You are engaged? |
32920 | You are not_ sorry_ that she is happy? |
32920 | You are so much better this afternoon-- what do you say? |
32920 | You ca n''t get away-- Vanna, does it strike you that we are doing a wrong, a wicked thing? |
32920 | You did not trouble about him; why should I give up everything for the sake of possible children?" |
32920 | You do n''t grudge her her good fortune? |
32920 | You feel that, do n''t you-- the absolute goodness and sincerity of the fellow?" |
32920 | You have known all these months when you have been happy and gay? |
32920 | You have never been here before?" |
32920 | You have not been dancing at all?" |
32920 | You have not been lonely?" |
32920 | You have not changed your hair?" |
32920 | You know my craze for furniture? |
32920 | You mad creature, what do you mean?" |
32920 | You will never understand, but ca n''t you believe me? |
32920 | You wo n''t find it too lonely?" |
32920 | You would n''t have me love you less?" |
32920 | You_ mean_ it? |
32920 | _ Was_ he in love with Jean? |
32920 | _ What_ is in her face?" |
32920 | _ Why have I not come home to you_? |
32920 | _ Would_ she have me, I wonder?" |
32920 | ` Was n''t it wet?'' |
32920 | and how many coffers of gold did you squander in the purchase?" |
32920 | and if so, how did it affect herself? |
32920 | asked Vanna suddenly,"are you happy?" |
32920 | he looks at me with his biggest eyes, and asks,` would I ask any one to meet_ you_, who was not?'' |
32920 | is n''t it sad? |
32920 | what have you to say? |
32920 | whispered Jean weakly,"where is my baby?" |
23124 | Always providing that her husband was the chief consideration, and came before everything else? |
23124 | And all this time you have heard nothing? 23124 And now? |
23124 | And should Mr Edwards--(the innocent inquiry of my voice was growing more and more marked)--"was it his duty to have told you?" |
23124 | And the settlement? 23124 And what about themselves?" |
23124 | And what is your verdict, Mr Manners? 23124 And why would n''t I be liking him, Miss Evelyn? |
23124 | And will Miss Wastneys keep on the house alone? |
23124 | And will you allow me to wish you much happiness and prosperity in your beautiful home? |
23124 | And you objected that I would wish to come first? 23124 And you? |
23124 | Are you sorry to be here? |
23124 | Billy''s father, I believe? |
23124 | Bridget, do you really mean-- do you honestly mean that you like him, too? |
23124 | But during those two weeks_ after_ you were married, he still seemed to--_care_? 23124 But he knows? |
23124 | But why London? |
23124 | But you couldn''t-- You were never tempted? |
23124 | But-- but-- how_ could_ he be there? 23124 But-- what about the other people? |
23124 | Charmion, are n''t you the least little bit inclined to be hard? |
23124 | Could n''t you try that, Charmion? 23124 Delphine, would you like to have a run in the car for a couple of hours or so before dinner?" |
23124 | Delphine? |
23124 | Did she? 23124 Do you approve?" |
23124 | Do you imagine that the landlord will be able to make children sleep beyond their usual hour? |
23124 | Do you know the feeling? 23124 Do you think I deserve it?" |
23124 | Do you think I should? |
23124 | Does she intend to join Mrs Fane in America? |
23124 | Does the same argument apply to local domestics? |
23124 | Er-- what do you think of-- the other one? |
23124 | Evelyn Wastneys, will you take this man to be your wedded husband? |
23124 | Evelyn-- Miss Wastneys is your niece, I believe? |
23124 | Even at twenty- six? |
23124 | General, shall_ we_ go hunting-- you and I? 23124 Harding?" |
23124 | Have n''t you a man friend who would take you away? |
23124 | Have you enjoyed your drive? |
23124 | Have you had enough reading for to- day, or would you care to hear one of the articles in this review? |
23124 | He says to me,` Is Miss Harding at home?'' 23124 He-- he spoke of Mr Hallett''s wife--""And you were not aware that he had a wife? |
23124 | He? 23124 His wife? |
23124 | How are we going to manage it? |
23124 | How could I? 23124 How much?" |
23124 | How much? |
23124 | How was the General when you saw him last? |
23124 | How? 23124 I believe you and-- er-- Mrs Fane are strangers to this neighbourhood?" |
23124 | I hope the tenants at` Pastimes''are well, and the Vicar and his wife-- that pretty little` Delphine''of whom Evelyn is so fond? |
23124 | I keep asking myself,` In my place, what would Evelyn have done?'' 23124 I suppose,"he began tentatively,"you have had an easy life?" |
23124 | Incomplete? 23124 Is he going to be ill? |
23124 | Is there any necessity for them to shriek at the pitch of their voices? |
23124 | Lend you Bess? 23124 May I ask if she has confided in you-- told you the history of our acquaintance?" |
23124 | May I ask who gave you that information? |
23124 | May I have a few minutes''conversation? 23124 Minus a maid and appliances?" |
23124 | Miss Wastneys, would you care to see the picture we were talking about at dinner? |
23124 | Mr Thorold, I believe? |
23124 | My dear, has it ever occurred to you to think what you are going to_ do_? |
23124 | My dear, what kind of joy_ can_ there be in such places? |
23124 | Now that you''ve stayed here, and seen for yourself what it''s like, truthfully, are n''t you just a little sorry for me? 23124 Of course I can make no definite offer without consulting Mrs Fane, but-- would you like it if we lent our grounds for the fete? |
23124 | Oh, Mr Maplestone, what is the use of arguing? 23124 Oh, has n''t he? |
23124 | Oh, how did you guess? |
23124 | Perhaps Miss Wastneys-- Is there any special place you would like to see? |
23124 | Pray what makes you think so? |
23124 | Pretty condemning, eh? 23124 Quite heroic, is n''t it?" |
23124 | Really? 23124 Rich? |
23124 | She needs change, does n''t she? 23124 She?" |
23124 | Sure, d''ye reminder Miss Kathleen when she play- acted the ould lady, the last Christmas party? |
23124 | Then, of course, under the circumstances, you will not be inclined to come with me to town? |
23124 | This-- this reunion will make a difference to your life? 23124 Tired, dear, and-- cross? |
23124 | Travers? 23124 Tried to find her? |
23124 | Was Ralph civil? 23124 Was it necessary to wait until we had actually arrived, before letting us know that you had changed your mind?" |
23124 | Was that your husband''s name? |
23124 | We ought to strike a happy mean between us, eh, Evelyn? 23124 Well, and why not? |
23124 | Well, dear little girl, if your present crack- brained mission is not working out to your satisfaction, if your neighbours in the` Mansions''(?) 23124 Well, young lady, and how are you to- day? |
23124 | Well-- suppose we talk of the drawing- room walls? 23124 Well?" |
23124 | What about General Underwood for` Pastimes''? |
23124 | What about hers? 23124 What about that hat? |
23124 | What are your faults? |
23124 | What did he say, how did he look, when you told him about your money and the settlement? 23124 What did you talk about? |
23124 | What do you mean? 23124 What exactly_ is_ forgiveness? |
23124 | What have I to remember? 23124 What men?" |
23124 | What sort of a gentleman is he? 23124 What was he like?" |
23124 | What was it? 23124 What was-- is-- your favourite man''s name?" |
23124 | What would be the good of minding? 23124 What''s forty- foive, but the proime of life? |
23124 | What? |
23124 | What? |
23124 | Where shall I go? 23124 Where_ are_ the stairs?" |
23124 | Which is? |
23124 | Who spoke of blame? 23124 Who? |
23124 | Who? |
23124 | Why are you laughing, Miss Harding? |
23124 | Why do you laugh? |
23124 | Why do you smile? |
23124 | Why not make it a general holiday? 23124 Why not-- both? |
23124 | Why not? 23124 Why not?" |
23124 | Why not? |
23124 | Why should n''t_ I_ take the children out this afternoon, and let you go home and rest? 23124 Wo n''t your husband object? |
23124 | Would it be likely, Kathie, in our very first talk? |
23124 | You can really love me? 23124 You did not ask for estimates in advance?" |
23124 | You do n''t deny, I suppose, that you joined with matron in abusing me as a monster of wickedness? |
23124 | You do n''t recognise me in the latter_ role_? |
23124 | You had n''t taken another place then? 23124 You have known all the time? |
23124 | You have no-- er-- special link or attraction? |
23124 | You like your own way, do n''t you? 23124 You mean-- about your husband?" |
23124 | You refuse to show any consideration for an invalid returning home-- after many years? |
23124 | You refuse to tell me where to find her? |
23124 | You told him, of course, that you were in treaty with another tenant? |
23124 | You understand that my cousin is an invalid, and that he has a special reason for wishing to live in this neighbourhood? |
23124 | You would like that? |
23124 | You? 23124 Your mother?" |
23124 | _ Do_ I look the sort of person to wheel out prams, and give tea parties to widowers, and be looked upon as a prop and support by my neighbours? |
23124 | _ What''s that_? 23124 _ What_ best things, for example?" |
23124 | ( So the Squire would"want,"would he? |
23124 | --he glared at me reproachfully--"you are probably not aware that I have asked Miss Wastneys to be my wife?" |
23124 | --she winced in irrepressible misery--"is it_ possible_--is it_ possible_ that any man could act so well? |
23124 | ... Did I tell him you were coming?" |
23124 | A pretty hat apiece, and a frock, and stockings to match-- that would n''t break the bank, would it? |
23124 | About us? |
23124 | All that time? |
23124 | Am I dreaming, or is this real life? |
23124 | And besides,"added Bridget shrewdly,"wo n''t he be all the keener for doing without me a bit?" |
23124 | And did n''t she look charming, too? |
23124 | And he said lucidly:--"Well, there would have been more to catch, would n''t there? |
23124 | And if there is no one else, why should I try? |
23124 | And in my case, for instance, to whom would you suggest I should proceed to cling?" |
23124 | And the prevailing colour?" |
23124 | And what can he mean? |
23124 | And what had Travers to say? |
23124 | And what would she find? |
23124 | And when we were settled, what should I find to say? |
23124 | And you argued with him, you say? |
23124 | And_ then_, Evelyn,_ then_ what are you going to do? |
23124 | Approaching him on the unsheltered road, torn by the problem,"Will he bow? |
23124 | Are you brave enough, strong enough, unselfish enough to give up all that has hitherto made your life, and to be satisfied with living through others? |
23124 | Are you in love-- engaged?" |
23124 | Are you shocked?" |
23124 | Are you speaking figuratively, Mr Maplestone? |
23124 | Ask her if she feels to me as she does towards other men? |
23124 | Associations!--so precious, are n''t they, to a woman''s heart? |
23124 | Aunt Eliza had some suggestion to make, then? |
23124 | But at night? |
23124 | But still--"Are you sorry, Charmion? |
23124 | But what of the children who shriek, and have holes in their stockings? |
23124 | But what?" |
23124 | But-- what did you think about the life in this little place?" |
23124 | But-- why should Mr Maplestone-- I gaped at him, and said:--"_ Why_?" |
23124 | Ca n''t you evolve a_ real_ Miss Harding, who will look after me and my poor bairns?" |
23124 | Ca n''t you imagine whom it is about? |
23124 | Ca n''t you leave business, and just be` homey''with me for an hour or two, after all this time?" |
23124 | Ca n''t you see how such an attitude must affect her character and development?" |
23124 | Ca n''t_ you_--isn''t there something else?" |
23124 | Can you do the same? |
23124 | Can you find it now?" |
23124 | Can you wonder that I am hard and cold-- that I have so little sympathy for outside troubles? |
23124 | Can you_ hear_?" |
23124 | Charmion, ca n''t you guess? |
23124 | Could I banish the housekeeper, and introduce a variation by paying to take her place?" |
23124 | Could I have helped doing so, when I was asked? |
23124 | Could I sit still where I was? |
23124 | Could I work in a visit to friends? |
23124 | Could n''t you make it your home instead of the flat? |
23124 | Could n''t you"--he looked at me apologetically--"carry on the same work in the country in your own name? |
23124 | Could you ever respect yourself again if, having put your shoulder to the wheel, you drew back and lapsed into selfish indifference?" |
23124 | Delphine, we shall meet at the Parish Room at twelve?" |
23124 | Did he say anything about me?" |
23124 | Did it begin--_soon_--Charmion?" |
23124 | Did the Vicar know? |
23124 | Did you keep it? |
23124 | Do I look as if I had strength enough to push a pram?" |
23124 | Do I look as if I would kidnap babies? |
23124 | Do I think his perambulator gets damp in the basement store- room? |
23124 | Do n''t you believe it is true?" |
23124 | Do n''t you two--?" |
23124 | Do we show it in our faces?" |
23124 | Do women-- can women-- is it possible to-- to_ care_ at forty- five?" |
23124 | Do you admire it? |
23124 | Do you always forget so quickly?" |
23124 | Do you consider yourself justified in acting in direct opposition to her wishes?" |
23124 | Do you imagine, if I choose to look for you, you can hide yourself from ME?" |
23124 | Do you realise that_ nothing_ is settled, and that nothing need be, unless you are absolutely, whole- heartedly_ sure_?" |
23124 | Do you remember the old fairy story about the unfortunate king who had three iron bands clamped tightly round his heart? |
23124 | Do you remember when you said you would give me my own way-- in reason?" |
23124 | Do you suppose I could leave England without seeing you again? |
23124 | Do you think any clergyman''s wife ever felt the same before?" |
23124 | Do you think she will talk?" |
23124 | Do you understand? |
23124 | Does he draw that still?" |
23124 | Does it make it better or worse, I wonder, that I am rich, and the question of money does not enter in? |
23124 | Does n''t it strike you as wrong and dishonourable to show such a want of concern for other people''s convenience?" |
23124 | Does n''t it worry you, Charmion, to feel yourself unjustly accused?" |
23124 | Does n''t that seem queer?" |
23124 | Does she think me an ugly brute?" |
23124 | Does that mean anything wrong with the spine? |
23124 | Does your head ache, dear? |
23124 | Edward? |
23124 | Evelyn, are n''t you the least little bit in the world inclined to wear your heart on your sleeve?" |
23124 | Evelyn, did you notice that she never spoke of her husband? |
23124 | Evelyn, do you imagine for one moment that I am going to let you go?" |
23124 | Evelyn, do you think she suspected? |
23124 | Evelyn, is n''t it strange how he dislikes you?" |
23124 | For whom?" |
23124 | From the very beginning?" |
23124 | Good news from Switzerland, was n''t it? |
23124 | HOSTILITIES? |
23124 | Had I been to blame in the past? |
23124 | Had I had bad news? |
23124 | Had he heard from Delphine of my coming and rushed to town for the express purpose of returning in my company? |
23124 | Had he noticed? |
23124 | Had he seen? |
23124 | Had the silly little thing ordered, and never_ asked_? |
23124 | Hallett''s wife? |
23124 | Have I ever seemed to pry into your affairs?" |
23124 | Have you anything to suggest?" |
23124 | Have you-- have you been making inquiries to find out what I am worth?" |
23124 | He bowed too, and said:--"Miss Harding, I believe?" |
23124 | He knows I am here?" |
23124 | He opened his lips and spoke:--"Evelyn, will you be my wife?" |
23124 | He recognised the name?" |
23124 | He said,"Would I kindly specify one or two of the` heaps''?" |
23124 | He says to me,` Is Miss Evelyn Wastneys at home?'' |
23124 | He was not at all rich-- did I tell you that? |
23124 | How can I stay here, and let you go? |
23124 | How can I turn round all in a moment and look upon you as a-- a lover? |
23124 | How can I? |
23124 | How can you care? |
23124 | How can you possibly know that you would like me as a wife?" |
23124 | How could I ever return to"Pastimes"? |
23124 | How could you be so mad?" |
23124 | How dare you attend to your own comfort at the expense of your neighbours overhead? |
23124 | How did you do it? |
23124 | How do I know? |
23124 | How do I look?" |
23124 | How do you come to know her?" |
23124 | How do you find the small man, Miss Harding?" |
23124 | How do you suppose_ he_ treated his wife?" |
23124 | How does he seem now?" |
23124 | How long has Mr Merrivale really been ill?" |
23124 | How long is this tomfoolery to go on_?" |
23124 | How much do you charge?" |
23124 | How much will you take?" |
23124 | How will it help him if its hair curls? |
23124 | How will it work out, dear, after paying expenses?" |
23124 | How would it be to drop some of the most boring duties and concentrate upon the things that you could do with all your heart? |
23124 | How would you like to take that house with me for the next two or three years, and furnish it between us with our best` bits''? |
23124 | How?" |
23124 | I cried suddenly,"are n''t you_ thankful_ to be rich?" |
23124 | I do n''t know if you are particular as to address?" |
23124 | I drew back; but, before I had time to protest, he hurled another crisp, sharp question at my head:--"Do you love your niece?" |
23124 | I felt for her hand and held it tight? |
23124 | I imagined them talking together about me, and saying,"Have you seen the new lady in the basement? |
23124 | I looked from one sulky face to another, and asked confidently:--"Now, which of you is the better cook?" |
23124 | I said as much, and he said,"Certainly; but how? |
23124 | I said faintly:--"Has he tried?" |
23124 | I said, with an air of polite inquiry:--"And-- did you part good friends?" |
23124 | I said,` What name shall I say, please?'' |
23124 | I see quite well how hard and bitter I am, but--""You ca n''t forgive?" |
23124 | I shall see you again before you sail?" |
23124 | I should be interested to know in what way you hold me responsible for Delphine''s shortcomings?" |
23124 | I smiled, a slow, superior smile, and spoke in a forbearing voice:--"Do you think you-- er--_really_ understand very much about women?" |
23124 | I think he was contemptible beyond words; but--_isn''t_ it possible that he has regretted, that he has not taken the money because he was_ ashamed_?" |
23124 | I thought of the Vicar''s pensive"Darling, is n''t this very high?" |
23124 | I turned to the Squire and asked solemnly,"_ Do_ I?" |
23124 | I wanted to ask--_Whats the matter_?" |
23124 | I was just wondering-- have you any engagement for the mornings?" |
23124 | I wondered what Charmion was doing, I wondered how Delphine was faring, I wondered-- did he really care so much? |
23124 | I_ ached_ to ask,"When?" |
23124 | If I made a remark, he disagreed; if I was silent,"Was there_ no_ news?--_nothing_ going on to tell a poor wretch tied to his bed?" |
23124 | If I really loved Evelyn, and cared for her welfare, how could I stand aside? |
23124 | If forgiving seems beyond you for the moment, could n''t you take the first step?" |
23124 | If it were to be done at all, why could it not have been done before?" |
23124 | If my faults are so many and so obvious, why on earth does he--? |
23124 | If so, would she be so very kind as to take Billie''s temperature, as he seemed restless and feverish? |
23124 | If the ladies are across with the Squire, how''ll he take it if he hears my daughter''s in their service? |
23124 | If there had been any possibility of doubt I would have gone straight to her, and demanded the truth, but-- what was the use? |
23124 | If there seems no difference between us? |
23124 | If this particular man was so much more understanding, why had she summoned me from town? |
23124 | In the meantime, what about dinner?" |
23124 | In the meantime, you''ll get a habit?" |
23124 | In what possible way is Evelyn to blame?" |
23124 | In what way has she` launched out''?" |
23124 | Is Mrs Fane called Charmion? |
23124 | Is it another man?" |
23124 | Is it coincidence, Miss Harding?" |
23124 | Is it his?" |
23124 | Is it necessary to tell one''s whole life history to-- er-- an--""An acquaintance? |
23124 | Is it possible? |
23124 | Is n''t he the fine figure of a man, and as pleasant a way with him as if he''d been Irish himself?" |
23124 | Is n''t it a duck?" |
23124 | Is n''t it glorious?" |
23124 | Is n''t that a little unreasonable?" |
23124 | Is n''t that enough? |
23124 | Is n''t there_ any_ room in the house you could have for your own, and furnish just exactly as you like?" |
23124 | Is n''t this rather a dull corner for you? |
23124 | Is that abuse?" |
23124 | Is there any way in which I can help? |
23124 | Is there anything in the world more depressing than a third- rate English suburb? |
23124 | Is there_ anyone_, Evelyn, who may swoop down upon us at a moment''s notice, and carry you off to share_ his_ house?" |
23124 | Is this a life for a girl of my age?" |
23124 | Is your mother quite well?" |
23124 | It all seemed so real-- so real--""Charmion, after you had read that letter and understood all that it meant, what did you do?" |
23124 | It goes against the principles of any right- minded female to give away tawdry fineries, and yet-- and yet--_Could_ I bear to destroy them? |
23124 | It is Jacky''s work-- his vocation; but for me, a girl of twenty- two, do you think it is quite_ fair_?" |
23124 | It is not enough? |
23124 | It was a wonderful letter, written straight from the heart--"I interrupted in breathless haste:--"Have you got it? |
23124 | It was just--""What?" |
23124 | It would be a relief to be rid of her, but-- who would take charge while she was away? |
23124 | It''s so hard for you, is n''t it, dear, having no other brother or sister? |
23124 | Later on-- after a blissful interlude-- I began to ask questions:--"What will your mother say? |
23124 | Make the house a country resort for lame dogs who need a rest, for example? |
23124 | May n''t they be hurt instead?" |
23124 | Meantime you understand, do n''t you, Bridget, that they are not_ cheerful_ places that we are going to see? |
23124 | Might n''t they like me better just because I_ am_ young and look nice?" |
23124 | Mr Hallett, disappointed of a hoped- for holiday with his friend as companion, shrugged his shoulders, and inquired dismally:"What can you expect? |
23124 | Mr Manners, may I say exactly what I think?" |
23124 | Mr Thorold, will you answer just one question? |
23124 | Mrs Merrivale paused and cocked an interrogative eye at me, and her husband said gently:--"Dear, are n''t you too ambitious? |
23124 | Must I tell Charmion? |
23124 | My brain seethed with curious questions, but there seemed only a moment''s pause before I spoke again:--"Have you been staying in town?" |
23124 | Need we go on?" |
23124 | Nice little flat, is n''t it?" |
23124 | Nothing has happened?" |
23124 | Now I suppose you are horribly shocked?" |
23124 | Now what did she mean by that? |
23124 | Now, are you coming, or are you not?" |
23124 | Obviously the insinuation was meant to go home, but how and where had we been to blame? |
23124 | Odd, is n''t it, that the season should affect` Weltham Mansions''? |
23124 | Oh, but_ why_ did he pretend? |
23124 | Ought she to lie down flat? |
23124 | Pause to wonder if it might not be better to make a man happy rather than to live alone, even if one were not really in love? |
23124 | Poor strugglers, clinging on to the fringe of society, squeezing out the extra pounds so badly needed for necessities, for-- what? |
23124 | Probably it has-- well, it has made you bad- tempered, has n''t it? |
23124 | Ralph"--she went to his side and stared eagerly in his face--"did you mean what you said the other day, about teaching me to ride?" |
23124 | Several men wanted to marry me, but I never met anyone whom it was possible to think of as a husband until--""Your husband?" |
23124 | Shall I pretend?" |
23124 | Shall we leave it for another day? |
23124 | Shall_ I_ bow? |
23124 | She smiled at me in wan acknowledgment, and I said,"May I help?" |
23124 | She thought it so queer to have your own Christian name printed on your cards--""Did she?" |
23124 | Short of being absolutely brutal, what else could I say? |
23124 | Should he tell her-- should he confess? |
23124 | So all this time you have believed that I was a happy widow?" |
23124 | Some girls would--""What?" |
23124 | Still not enough? |
23124 | Suppose I had cared, too? |
23124 | Suppose he did n''t? |
23124 | Suppose he did? |
23124 | Suppose we hear your bird for a change?" |
23124 | Tell me the truth?" |
23124 | Thankful? |
23124 | That committee? |
23124 | That may all be quite true, but what on earth has it got to do with what we were talking of last?" |
23124 | That''s the feeling, is n''t it? |
23124 | That''s what you heard, I suppose?" |
23124 | The disguise was good, but was it good enough? |
23124 | The great, all- absorbing question is--_where_ and_ how_ to begin? |
23124 | The money you made over to him? |
23124 | Then Mr Maplestone turned to the valet, and roared at him:--"Why the dickens could n''t you_ come_, instead of hanging about all day?" |
23124 | Then he turned to Mr Maplestone, and roared at him:--"What on earth did you_ mean_ by letting go?" |
23124 | Then what was the urgent need?" |
23124 | Then with an eagerness which could not be suppressed,"You know her? |
23124 | There has some letters come--''He says,` When will Miss Harding be in?'' |
23124 | There''s no doubt but we''ve done good, but what I say is-- why not do it with your own face?" |
23124 | They are so fond of you already; but--""Well?" |
23124 | This is the letter:--"Evelyn, Dear,--How is it faring with you, I wonder, in your grey London world, while I laze beneath Italian skies? |
23124 | This was all very well, but what next? |
23124 | This week, to- morrow-- what are conventions to us? |
23124 | To see those little white gloves shrivel up in the flames, the high heeled little slippers crumple and split? |
23124 | Truly? |
23124 | WHY NOT? |
23124 | Was I ill? |
23124 | Was I quite well? |
23124 | Was it a deep and laborious plan? |
23124 | Was it a disappointment like? |
23124 | Was it chance? |
23124 | Was it coincidence? |
23124 | Was it fancy which read a note of reproach in her intonation? |
23124 | Was it my fault for having given the address? |
23124 | Was it possible that with his small stipend he could afford such extravagances? |
23124 | Was n''t it your express desire to be sociable, and to know your neighbours?" |
23124 | Was there anything he could do? |
23124 | We grew intimate, comforting one another, waiting day after day--""You mentioned me? |
23124 | Well, shall we go upstairs and see the bedrooms?" |
23124 | What I want to know now is, why, with your temperament, did you come to marry a country parson?" |
23124 | What about me? |
23124 | What are you going to do, my dear, with your blank new life?" |
23124 | What could I say? |
23124 | What could I say? |
23124 | What could be a finer testimony to Miss Harding''s verisimilitude than the blandishments of these sweet innocents? |
23124 | What could he do to cut down expenses? |
23124 | What did you expect? |
23124 | What did_ I_ think? |
23124 | What do you suppose? |
23124 | What do you think of that? |
23124 | What does he look like?" |
23124 | What does it matter whether their hair curls or not? |
23124 | What does she look like? |
23124 | What does your husband say?" |
23124 | What else could you expect?" |
23124 | What had I done? |
23124 | What is this` work''of which you talk? |
23124 | What kind of a man can he have been to make a woman leave him in a month?" |
23124 | What next? |
23124 | What right had he to waste good canvas? |
23124 | What sort of things were_ you_ thinking about?" |
23124 | What was I to do in the future? |
23124 | What was her Christian name?" |
23124 | What was it_ possible_ to say? |
23124 | What was the use of making a fuss? |
23124 | What was there to say? |
23124 | What was to happen when the half- hour was up, and Delphine went off to her library books and left us alone? |
23124 | What were Miss Wastneys''plans for the summer? |
23124 | What would you like? |
23124 | What''s the matter? |
23124 | What''s the trouble, Evelyn?" |
23124 | What''s this nonsense of leaving no address? |
23124 | What? |
23124 | When are you coming again?" |
23124 | When are you coming back to` Pastimes''?" |
23124 | When shall you call?" |
23124 | Where could the men sleep?" |
23124 | Where did you buy your bonnet, Evelyn? |
23124 | Where is she? |
23124 | Where_ are_ your things, Charmion?" |
23124 | Which way shall we go?" |
23124 | Who abuses her?" |
23124 | Who could compare a darkened life on earth with the perfected powers, the unimaginable glories of eternity? |
23124 | Who else could I mean?" |
23124 | Who has been talking about my affairs? |
23124 | Who says I am rich? |
23124 | Who? |
23124 | Why and wherefore? |
23124 | Why are you so sure the Squire does not?" |
23124 | Why did I never marry? |
23124 | Why did n''t I think of it before? |
23124 | Why had he asked me? |
23124 | Why not? |
23124 | Why should I be cross? |
23124 | Why should I distress myself about a man I have never seen?" |
23124 | Why should I keep a name which was given to me under false pretences? |
23124 | Why should I not wish to be reassured on my own account? |
23124 | Why should I think of her any more?" |
23124 | Why should a man stint his wife to give the money away to outsiders? |
23124 | Why should it be wrong for me to force confidences, when she herself had led the way? |
23124 | Why should it? |
23124 | Why should n''t I settle a few of the bills for Billie''s illness and say nothing about it?" |
23124 | Why should n''t I take a little flat in some unfashionable block, and play good fairy to my neighbours? |
23124 | Why should we be so very hard on other people because theirs are a different brand from our own?" |
23124 | Why waste it here? |
23124 | Why would n''t I help him? |
23124 | Why? |
23124 | Why? |
23124 | Why? |
23124 | Why? |
23124 | Will he pretend? |
23124 | Will she be surprised?" |
23124 | Will they be starving around us, Miss Evelyn, and the little children crying out for bread?" |
23124 | Will you be on my side?" |
23124 | Will you explain?" |
23124 | Will you forgive me if I am perfectly frank and honest, and tell you exactly what is in my mind?" |
23124 | Will you kindly listen to that?" |
23124 | Will you really take the girls? |
23124 | Will you really?" |
23124 | With your looks--""What have my looks to do with it?" |
23124 | Wo n''t the time come when nature will rebel, and demand a turn for yourself? |
23124 | Worth more, I presume, than the entrance shilling?" |
23124 | Would I be so very good as to stay to hear his verdict? |
23124 | Would I go to Ireland? |
23124 | Would I recommend sending the children to live in the country? |
23124 | Would he ask me to change seats? |
23124 | Would he expect me to suggest it? |
23124 | Would he go on caring? |
23124 | Would n''t I help him? |
23124 | Would n''t he have been happier with one?" |
23124 | Would n''t that first hour in the garden be glorious enough to repay you for all the exile?" |
23124 | Would n''t to- morrow morning--?" |
23124 | Would n''t you like to be moved?" |
23124 | Would the time ever come, when I was really old, when I should sit by a lonely hearth and look back and regret? |
23124 | Would you be an angel of meekness if you had to go through what I am bearing now?" |
23124 | Would you be sorry? |
23124 | Would you care to see our garden? |
23124 | Would you do it yourself, Mr Maplestone-- for the sake of a stranger you had never seen?" |
23124 | Would you do it? |
23124 | Would you mind telling me exactly what it was?" |
23124 | You agree? |
23124 | You and I will have sunshine and light at Pastimes-- you wo n''t mind putting up with dullness for part of the year?" |
23124 | You are Miss Harding? |
23124 | You are n''t by any possibility going to marry Wenham Thorold?" |
23124 | You are not--""What?" |
23124 | You are sure you have told me everything, Delphine? |
23124 | You believed in him still?" |
23124 | You can really manage to care?" |
23124 | You can surely pull yourself together for five minutes?" |
23124 | You could n''t tell what it was like?" |
23124 | You did n''t accept?" |
23124 | You feel the same? |
23124 | You have been cruelly treated, but-- do n''t be vexed-- aren''t you in the wrong, too, in feeling so bitter after all these years?" |
23124 | You have met, and-- spoken?" |
23124 | You have never been in love?" |
23124 | You know what this means?" |
23124 | You shared it together? |
23124 | You think I dare?" |
23124 | You understand, do n''t you, that it is only a loan? |
23124 | You will allow me to sit down?" |
23124 | You will speak honestly, and-- let me speak honestly to you?" |
23124 | You would enjoy that?" |
23124 | You yourself? |
23124 | You-- you will go to your flat, Evelyn?" |
23124 | You? |
23124 | You_ did_ say so?" |
23124 | You_ do_ want him, do n''t you, Miss Harding?" |
23124 | Your husband?" |
23124 | _ And_--the poor feet?" |
23124 | _ Blood_?" |
23124 | _ Care_--are you asking? |
23124 | _ How could I manage to look old_? |
23124 | _ Why_ did n''t he tell her that he knew about the money?" |
23124 | _ Why_ did you do it? |
23124 | _ Why_ will you speak of such things when I have begged you not?" |
23124 | _ Why_? |
23124 | _ You_ who are always talking of wanting to help--""But could I help him? |
23124 | ` Pastimes''is its name; is n''t it quaint and suggestive? |
23124 | and"How?" |
23124 | and"Where?" |
23124 | but when I left, he asked,"When will you come again?" |
23124 | what is it? |
23124 | what should we ever find to say? |
23124 | you have been getting into debt?" |
33353 | ''E ai n''t much good, is''e? |
33353 | ''E was n''t expecting me; but''e asked me the other night if I''d call in when I was passing, and as I was passing I called in, see? |
33353 | ''Ow''s that, me dear? |
33353 | A cormorant? |
33353 | A what? |
33353 | Am I as tedious as that? |
33353 | Am I your friend, Miss Brent? |
33353 | Am I? |
33353 | And Lady Meyfield, does she know? |
33353 | And now what do you think of me? |
33353 | And shall we all be asked to the wedding, Lord Bowen? |
33353 | And what did you do? |
33353 | And what did you do? |
33353 | And what did you say? |
33353 | And what do you think of Peggy''s whirlwind methods? |
33353 | And where were you wounded? |
33353 | And who is to receive these explanations? |
33353 | And why was I not told, her sole surviving relative? |
33353 | And why, may I ask? |
33353 | And will you dine to- night, Pat? |
33353 | And-- and--she concluded,"what do you think of me?" |
33353 | Are n''t we a nuisance? |
33353 | Are you a major? |
33353 | Are you cold? |
33353 | Are you going to be mean? 33353 Are you mad?" |
33353 | Are you mad? |
33353 | Are you playing the game, do you think? |
33353 | Are you serious? |
33353 | Are you sure, me dear? |
33353 | Are you sure? |
33353 | Are you-- are you sure it''s nothing else? |
33353 | As your sole surviving relative it is my duty----"Do n''t you think,interrupted Patricia,"that just for once you could neglect your duty? |
33353 | Busy with what? |
33353 | But are n''t you going to open them? |
33353 | But are n''t you pleased? |
33353 | But ca n''t we----? |
33353 | But do n''t you believe in love? |
33353 | But do they? |
33353 | But for how long, Tan? |
33353 | But how much will that help us? |
33353 | But how? |
33353 | But if someone''s dress is awry, or their hair is not on straight, would you announce the fact to the whole table? |
33353 | But is n''t it true, Miss Brent? |
33353 | But is n''t it true? |
33353 | But then, how do you----? |
33353 | But what on earth have I to do with your singing in your bath? |
33353 | But what will she think? |
33353 | But what''as money got to do with it? |
33353 | But why did n''t he----? |
33353 | But why do you think I am lonely? |
33353 | But why has she changed her mind? |
33353 | But why,questioned Patricia,"were you going away if you knew that-- that everything would come all right?" |
33353 | But why----? |
33353 | But why? |
33353 | But-- but-- that would leave_ The Morning Post_ announcement and P- Peter----"Do n''t you think they might both be left, just for the moment? 33353 Call him?" |
33353 | Can not we agree to share Miss Brent? |
33353 | Can not we go to your room? |
33353 | Can you imagine Tan in love, Patricia? |
33353 | Can you not see Godfrey choosing a wife? |
33353 | Can you, Mrs. Morton, seriously regard marriage in this country as a success? 33353 Can you,"continued Lady Tanagra, who was in a wilful mood,"can you imagine Godfrey in love? |
33353 | Caught what? |
33353 | Colonel Bowen? |
33353 | Could n''t you say I''ve been promoted? |
33353 | D''you like it? |
33353 | Did I look as bad as that? |
33353 | Did I? 33353 Did he-- did he-- er-- tell you?" |
33353 | Did n''t I? |
33353 | Did n''t Jacob serve seven years for Rachel? |
33353 | Did n''t he tell you he had seen me? |
33353 | Did n''t you do that? |
33353 | Did you get my message? |
33353 | Did you know Colonel Bowen was coming? |
33353 | Did you ring me up to ask after my health? |
33353 | Did you say you were going there? |
33353 | Did you tell her so? |
33353 | Dining at the Quadrant? |
33353 | Do I look as bad as all that? |
33353 | Do n''t you see how horribly awkward it is? 33353 Do n''t you think he is a little like the Scotsman we were talking about just now?" |
33353 | Do n''t you think that half the troubles of the world are due to people wanting to understand? |
33353 | Do n''t you think we had better just talk the thing out? 33353 Do n''t you understand that nothing can possibly be built up on such a foundation as-- as----?" |
33353 | Do you appreciate that you are talking in parables? |
33353 | Do you appreciate that you''ve made me extremely ridiculous with your telegrams, messenger- boys, conservatories, and confectioner''s- shops? 33353 Do you know what I told''er?" |
33353 | Do you know why I''ve come? |
33353 | Do you like him? |
33353 | Do you like them? |
33353 | Do you really mean it? |
33353 | Do you refer to Uncle or to me? |
33353 | Do you regret it? |
33353 | Do you think I would marry----? |
33353 | Do you think I''m a cormorant, as well as an abandoned person? |
33353 | Does Lady Tanagra know? |
33353 | Does it make you feel particularly virtuous to be charitable with another''s money? |
33353 | Does one reason with a woman, Peel? |
33353 | Does she keep canaries then? |
33353 | Does that imply that he is a drug upon the market? |
33353 | Does that mean that he is a food or a stimulant? |
33353 | Does the girl know that you are-- that I am to throw myself into the breach? |
33353 | Ever hear that song''My Old Dutch''? |
33353 | Finished? |
33353 | Found whom? |
33353 | Galvin House? |
33353 | Going out? |
33353 | Had the man suddenly gone mad? |
33353 | Has it ever struck you what we shall look like when we grow very old? |
33353 | Have I any engagements to- day? |
33353 | Have I been here long? |
33353 | Have n''t you seen_ The Morning Post_? |
33353 | Have you ever been to Eastbourne, Peel? |
33353 | Have you nothing to say? |
33353 | How are you? |
33353 | How can anyone be serious in this heat? |
33353 | How can you prevent it? |
33353 | How did they find out? |
33353 | How did you get round here; did you bring the car? |
33353 | How did you know? |
33353 | How long have I known her? |
33353 | How''s Patricia? |
33353 | How? |
33353 | How? |
33353 | I beg pardon, my lord? |
33353 | I do not think I am qualified to express an opinion, am I? |
33353 | I repeat,proceeded Miss Brent,"where did you meet Colonel Bowen?" |
33353 | I suppose you are a friend of the family? |
33353 | I think,she said, indicating an old woman selling matches,"we''ll give her the shilling for the taxi, Peter, shall we?" |
33353 | I wonder what you are thinking of me? |
33353 | I wonder why I let him do that? |
33353 | I''m very much at your mercy now, Peter, are n''t I? 33353 I-- I----""Jump in, wo n''t you?" |
33353 | I----"Do n''t you think you''ve done enough mischief already, Aunt Adelaide? |
33353 | Interested in politics? |
33353 | Is Lord Peter Bowen in? |
33353 | Is Lord Peter Bowen in? |
33353 | Is he a first or a second lieutenant? |
33353 | Is he steady? |
33353 | Is his knapsack number 99? |
33353 | Is it indiscreet to ask where you are taking me? |
33353 | Is it true that you are engaged to Lord Peter Bowen? |
33353 | Is it worth it? |
33353 | Is it? |
33353 | Is n''t he a darling? |
33353 | Is n''t he a dear? |
33353 | Is n''t that Godfrey all over? |
33353 | Is n''t that just like a man? |
33353 | Is that Lord Peter Bowen? |
33353 | Is that an apology, or merely a statement of fact? |
33353 | Is that you, Patricia? |
33353 | Is what worth what? |
33353 | Is your fiancé in the army? |
33353 | It does n''t sound very respectable, does it? |
33353 | It is my duty as your sole surviving relative,how Patricia deplored that word"surviving,"why had her Aunt Adelaide survived? |
33353 | It is n''t what? |
33353 | It was rather funny, was n''t it? |
33353 | It''s difficult, is n''t it, Patricia? |
33353 | Like it? |
33353 | Look here, Daddy, if you steal my friends I shall----she paused, then turning to Elton she said,"What shall I do, Goddy?" |
33353 | Love, me dear? |
33353 | Made a what, me dear? |
33353 | Married, me, Mr. Triggs? 33353 May I ask what it is?" |
33353 | May I call? |
33353 | May I come in, dear? |
33353 | May I pay for the taxi? |
33353 | May we smoke? |
33353 | Mean by what? |
33353 | Might I enquire who Aunt Adelaide is, please, Patricia? |
33353 | Must you? |
33353 | No room for her own son? |
33353 | Not remember the number of the battalion in which your fiancé is? |
33353 | Not say it? |
33353 | Now you''ve spoiled it,cried Lady Tanagra,"and it was----""Spoiled what?" |
33353 | Now, father,said Mrs. Bonsor,"will you come into the morning- room? |
33353 | Off to- morrow? |
33353 | Oh, Mr. Triggs, how could you? |
33353 | Oh, but I ca n''t,said Patricia;"I-- I----""Why ca n''t you?" |
33353 | On your side? |
33353 | Only----"Only what? |
33353 | Patricia, when did you-- care? |
33353 | Patricia, where did you meet this Colonel Peter Bowen? |
33353 | Patricia,continued Miss Brent,"I repeat, what is this I hear about your being engaged?" |
33353 | Patricia,she demanded,"what is all this I hear?" |
33353 | Please forgive me, I was rather a beast, was n''t I? |
33353 | Please try and understand,she said,"and now will you drive me home?" |
33353 | Quarrelled,''aven''t they?'' |
33353 | Rang who up, father? |
33353 | Shall I come round? |
33353 | Shall I want anything warmer than this? |
33353 | Shall we put it in their tea? |
33353 | Shall we say Friday? |
33353 | Shall you be tired? |
33353 | She is a little overpowering at first, is n''t she? |
33353 | Sir? |
33353 | Sir? |
33353 | Sir? |
33353 | Spoiled everything? |
33353 | Tell him I''m busy, will you please? |
33353 | Tell you what? |
33353 | That one over there, see''i m eating a nut? |
33353 | That the Quadrant Hotel? |
33353 | That you asked who what? |
33353 | That you, Patricia? |
33353 | That''s delightful; but who is me? |
33353 | The what? |
33353 | Then I may forgive him, you think? |
33353 | Then is n''t it true? |
33353 | Then the letter to Peter would hurt him because-- you must forgive me-- it is rather brutal, is n''t it? |
33353 | Then what on earth do you call him then? |
33353 | Then you decline to tell me? |
33353 | Thinking? |
33353 | To the Zoo? |
33353 | Understand what? |
33353 | Was he? |
33353 | Was n''t it strange we should see you to- night? |
33353 | Was she annoyed? |
33353 | Was she really too undressed? |
33353 | Was the message undesirable? |
33353 | We all have our weaknesses, do n''t you think? |
33353 | Well, if he''s never been tiresome I''m sure you would n''t like to hurt him, would you? |
33353 | Well, may I be the physician for to- day? |
33353 | Well, me dear, how goes it? |
33353 | Well, now, will you do something just to please me? |
33353 | Well, where shall I see you? |
33353 | Well, you see, Mr. Triggs, he''s rising, and you ca n''t rise and be risen at the same time, can you? |
33353 | Well,continued Lady Tanagra,"what do you say if we destroy them both?" |
33353 | Well,said Patricia gaily,"what are the old tabbies doing this afternoon?" |
33353 | Were they getting full value for their money? |
33353 | Were they not all lonely-- the left of God? |
33353 | Were they----? |
33353 | What am I to tell Aunt Adelaide at half- past five to- morrow evening? |
33353 | What battalion? |
33353 | What did you say? |
33353 | What do you mean by it? |
33353 | What do you mean? 33353 What do you mean?" |
33353 | What do you mean? |
33353 | What do you think of her, Goddy? |
33353 | What do you think of it,''Ettie? |
33353 | What do you want me to say? |
33353 | What else should it be? |
33353 | What else? |
33353 | What have I got to fret about? |
33353 | What have I to fret about? |
33353 | What have you got to fret about? |
33353 | What is it? |
33353 | What on earth do you mean? |
33353 | What will people think? |
33353 | What will''Ettie say? |
33353 | What work? |
33353 | What would they think if they heard the man you''re engaged to call you Miss Brent? |
33353 | What''ave I done? |
33353 | What''ave I done? |
33353 | What''s he in? |
33353 | What''s that you say? |
33353 | What''s that? |
33353 | What''s the matter, me dear? |
33353 | What''s the time, Peel? |
33353 | What''s true? |
33353 | What? |
33353 | Whatever shall we do? |
33353 | When does he go? |
33353 | When is it to be, Lord Peter? |
33353 | When shall we get married? |
33353 | When? |
33353 | When? |
33353 | Where are you? 33353 Where did I meet him, Aunt Adelaide?" |
33353 | Where to, sir? |
33353 | Where will you have the flowers, Miss Brent? |
33353 | Where''s''Ettie? |
33353 | Who are they? |
33353 | Who did?'' |
33353 | Who inserted that paragraph? |
33353 | Who is Godfrey Elton? |
33353 | Who was that? |
33353 | Who''s Miss Sikkum? |
33353 | Who''s she? |
33353 | Who''s the man? |
33353 | Who, Patricia? |
33353 | Who, Peter? |
33353 | Who? |
33353 | Who? |
33353 | Why ai n''t you talking, me dear? |
33353 | Why ca n''t they let potatoes grow without writing about them? |
33353 | Why did she not reproach him, why did she thrill at his touch, why----? |
33353 | Why did you come? |
33353 | Why did you suddenly leave me all alone, Peter? |
33353 | Why do you say that? |
33353 | Why does n''t he live here? |
33353 | Why had not Bowen written? |
33353 | Why had she given the boy sixpence? |
33353 | Why hesitate at the first step? |
33353 | Why is it that we Englishmen dislike each other so at breakfast? |
33353 | Why not ask her to lunch here to- morrow? |
33353 | Why not tell her the truth? |
33353 | Why not? |
33353 | Why not? |
33353 | Why on earth must the ridiculous people put it at the top of the column? |
33353 | Why was she allowing him to do this? |
33353 | Why, do n''t you see that you have implied that all the luck is on her side, and that will make her simply furious? |
33353 | Why? |
33353 | Why? |
33353 | Why? |
33353 | Why? |
33353 | Will you dine with me? |
33353 | Will you give him my message, please, Fellers? |
33353 | Will you say that I''m engaged? |
33353 | Will you take pity on me, Patricia? 33353 Will you?" |
33353 | Wo n''t you and your friend share my table, Patricia? |
33353 | Wo n''t you have some tea? |
33353 | Working who too hard? |
33353 | Would you mind telling me what you propose doing? |
33353 | Yes, Aunt Adelaide? |
33353 | Yes, I see him,said Patricia;"but who was just like him?" |
33353 | Yes, are n''t I getting acid and spinsterish? |
33353 | Yes, are n''t they? 33353 Yes, sir; but wot about my petrol?" |
33353 | Yes, who is speaking? |
33353 | You broke off the engagement with a nice young chap like''i m? |
33353 | You do n''t approve of them? |
33353 | You do n''t like it? |
33353 | You going to marry''er? |
33353 | You got the flowers? |
33353 | You have been wounded? |
33353 | You have n''t fainted, have you? |
33353 | You heard, Gustave? |
33353 | You insist? |
33353 | You know Betty''s such a sport? |
33353 | You know Lady Tanagra? |
33353 | You know Lord Peter? |
33353 | You know all about Colonel Bowen, do n''t you, dear? 33353 You think we should take happiness where we can find it?" |
33353 | You told_ The Morning Post_ people that it was correct when you knew that it was wrong? |
33353 | You will forgive me, wo n''t you? |
33353 | You wo n''t be hard on us, will you? |
33353 | You''ll explain to Mr. Bonsor that I''ve been kidnapped, will you not? |
33353 | You''ll take champagne? |
33353 | You''re Patricia Brent, are n''t you? |
33353 | You''re not angry with me, Patricia, are you? |
33353 | You''re not going to say you ca n''t both dine with me? |
33353 | You''re not very gracious, Patricia, are you? |
33353 | You? |
33353 | Your fiancé? |
33353 | Your petrol? 33353 --it had become with her a habit to address her reflection in the mirror--shall we carry an umbrella, or shall we not?" |
33353 | After a moment''s silence he continued:"Been sowing wild oats there?" |
33353 | After all, she would ask herself indifferently, what did it matter? |
33353 | After his cheery"How goes it, me dear?" |
33353 | Again he paused, then added with a gulp,"Could n''t I lend you some?" |
33353 | Are you going to play the game?" |
33353 | As for telling Patricia, could he immediately on meeting her blurt out,"I''m a lord?" |
33353 | B., what''ave you got to say?" |
33353 | Bonsor?" |
33353 | But where are you going, and why all this splendour?" |
33353 | By the way, where shall you be if I want to get at you?" |
33353 | CHAPTER XI THE DEFECTION OF MR. TRIGGS"Well, me dear, how goes it?" |
33353 | CHAPTER XV MR. TRIGGS TAKES TEA IN KENSINGTON GARDENS I"Well, me dear,''ow goes it?" |
33353 | Ca n''t you share her with me, just for this evening?" |
33353 | Can I see you?" |
33353 | Come in a taxi or shall I come and fetch you?" |
33353 | Could n''t we go somewhere else?" |
33353 | Could she explain? |
33353 | Could they lunch at the Carlton? |
33353 | Did God make people in His own image and then leave the rest to them? |
33353 | Did they ever get mixed? |
33353 | Do n''t you like knowing Lord Peter and Lady Tanagra, Mr. Elton and all the rest of them?" |
33353 | Do n''t you think so, Miss Wangle?" |
33353 | Do you understand?" |
33353 | Had Mr. Triggs told her? |
33353 | Had he thought she would be dazzled? |
33353 | Had she bathed? |
33353 | Had she met any nice people? |
33353 | Have n''t you got a whistle?" |
33353 | Have you ever felt like that?" |
33353 | He had promised to see her through; but how was he going to do it? |
33353 | Her thoughts ran in a circle, coming back inevitably to the maddening question,"What does he really think of me?" |
33353 | How did she know? |
33353 | How had he classified her? |
33353 | How is it you are dissipating in town?" |
33353 | How many times had Bowen been down? |
33353 | How would you like to live among them all? |
33353 | I must be going to----""Have you got a luncheon engagement?" |
33353 | I wonder what the major- man will think?" |
33353 | I?" |
33353 | If he were Lord Peter, why on earth had he not told her? |
33353 | If it rained, did they think it would clear up? |
33353 | If it were cloudy, did they think it would rain? |
33353 | If it were fine, did they think it would last? |
33353 | If she let Peter go? |
33353 | If she made it the Friday night, would it arouse suspicion? |
33353 | If there is anything I can do, you will tell me, wo n''t you? |
33353 | Is he really Lord Peter?" |
33353 | Is it worth it?" |
33353 | Is n''t it absurd?" |
33353 | Is n''t that so?" |
33353 | Is that not so?" |
33353 | Is that right?" |
33353 | Is there a quiet corner where we shall not be overheard?" |
33353 | It had been Patricia''s intention to go by bus but at the entrance of the lounge she saw Gustave who ingratiatingly enquired,"Taxi, mees?" |
33353 | It was to escape such drab existences that girls went on the stage, or worse; and why not? |
33353 | Lady Tanagra was getting them out of the tangle into which they had got themselves; but was she not involving them in a worse? |
33353 | Miss Brent, are n''t you happy?" |
33353 | Miss Brent,"she said, addressing Patricia,"would you not like to take your aunt into my boudoir? |
33353 | Mr. Cordal, a heavy man who seldom spoke, but enjoyed his food with noisy gusto, actually exclaimed,"What?" |
33353 | Now ca n''t we talk about something pleasant?" |
33353 | Now if she''s in love with him she will want to hear about him, and----""But ai n''t she going to see''i m?" |
33353 | Now shall we talk about something else?" |
33353 | Now what are the old cats-- I beg your pardon, what have the-- lambs been saying?" |
33353 | Of what use would her pride be then? |
33353 | One day he had asked Patricia rather suddenly,"Why do n''t you get married, me dear?" |
33353 | Our epidermises are too thick, or should it be epidermi?" |
33353 | Patricia tore open the envelope and read:"DEAR PATRICIA,"Wo n''t you let me see you? |
33353 | Patricia wondered was she lucky? |
33353 | Perhaps he had already started for----"Who is that?" |
33353 | Perhaps they would take tea with Mrs. Bonsor at the Ritz one afternoon? |
33353 | See? |
33353 | Shall I bring the car?" |
33353 | Shall I run you down to Whitehall?" |
33353 | Shall I tell you what I was thinking?" |
33353 | Shall we drop the subject of Colonel Bowen for the time being?" |
33353 | Shall we get on with the letters?" |
33353 | She had not gone many steps when the big car slid silently up beside her, and she heard a voice say,"Ca n''t I give you a lift to Galvin House?" |
33353 | She must see him, but how? |
33353 | Should she go into the lounge, where she was sure Galvin House would be gathered in full force, or should she go straight to bed? |
33353 | Should she or should she not enlarge the surface of exposure? |
33353 | Somewhere at the back of her mind was the unuttered thought, What would Little Milstead think of such conversation? |
33353 | Suppose Patricia were to marry her father? |
33353 | That''s only fair, is n''t it?" |
33353 | Then a moment after, drawing his cigarette- case from his pocket, he enquired,"Shall we smoke?" |
33353 | Then back again her thoughts would rush to the inevitable question, what did he really think? |
33353 | Then suddenly turning to Miss Wangle, she said,"Do you think I shall do, Miss Wangle, or do I look too wicked for a major?" |
33353 | Then with a sudden change of mood she cried,"Was n''t it clever of me capturing you to- day? |
33353 | Then with a sudden change she added,"But you will come, wo n''t you? |
33353 | There were the"Haven''t- we- met- before?" |
33353 | This gentleman,"he looked at the card,"Mr. Triggs, is----""Oh, Mr. Triggs, how do you do?" |
33353 | Triggs?" |
33353 | Triggs?" |
33353 | Triggs?" |
33353 | Triggs?" |
33353 | Triggs?" |
33353 | Turning to Patricia she demanded,"Can you imagine Godfrey in love?" |
33353 | Turning to Patricia she said:"Do you think it would matter if you put off what you are doing until to- morrow, Miss Brent?" |
33353 | Uncle, how are you?" |
33353 | Was Betty pretty? |
33353 | Was Mr. Triggs expected? |
33353 | Was ever man so persistent? |
33353 | Was it really, as Aunt Adelaide had told her, because the heart missed a beat? |
33353 | Was it true that the costumes of the women were disgraceful? |
33353 | Was she always to be a drudge to the Bonsors, a victim of the Wangles and a target for the Boltons of life? |
33353 | Was she going to faint? |
33353 | Was she going to faint? |
33353 | Was she really the sort of girl who might be taken for an inveterate old maid? |
33353 | Was that where free will came in?" |
33353 | Was the chair really moving away from her? |
33353 | Was there no escape? |
33353 | Was this all that life held for her? |
33353 | We never give special invitations to the friends we want, do we, Peggy? |
33353 | Well, Uncle, how''s the wound?" |
33353 | Were the dresses pretty? |
33353 | Were they----? |
33353 | What St. George would rescue her from this dragon of----? |
33353 | What am I writing?" |
33353 | What could it mean? |
33353 | What could she say? |
33353 | What did he think of her for being there? |
33353 | What did it hold for her? |
33353 | What do you say, Patricia?" |
33353 | What had happened? |
33353 | What had happened? |
33353 | What had she been dreaming of to make her cry? |
33353 | What had she done? |
33353 | What if he thought her different from what she actually was? |
33353 | What must he be thinking? |
33353 | What must he think of her? |
33353 | What on earth could she tell her aunt? |
33353 | What then?" |
33353 | What time does she leave Eaton Square?" |
33353 | What was Bowen going to do to save the situation? |
33353 | What was happening to her? |
33353 | What was he thinking of Galvin House refinement? |
33353 | What was pride? |
33353 | What was she going to do or say? |
33353 | What was she to do? |
33353 | What was she to do? |
33353 | What were her plans? |
33353 | What would Mr. Triggs say? |
33353 | What would Peel do? |
33353 | What would happen that afternoon? |
33353 | What would you do? |
33353 | What would you do?" |
33353 | What would your poor dear father have said?" |
33353 | When they had been served and both were smoking, Bowen remarked casually,"Got any engagement for this afternoon, Tan?" |
33353 | When was she likely to get married? |
33353 | Where did she propose to get her trousseau? |
33353 | Where had she been? |
33353 | Where had she heard it? |
33353 | Where was the wedding to take place? |
33353 | Where?" |
33353 | Wherever did you learn so much?" |
33353 | Who was to provide the wedding- cake? |
33353 | Why above all things could n''t women be reasonable? |
33353 | Why could n''t Patricia be sensible? |
33353 | Why did guns sound exactly as if large plank were being dropped? |
33353 | Why did not she accept the opening of escape that now presented itself and marry Bowen? |
33353 | Why did people faint? |
33353 | Why did silly women expect every girl to marry? |
33353 | Why did the report seem as if something were bouncing? |
33353 | Why did you do it?" |
33353 | Why did you?" |
33353 | Why had Fate been so unkind as to undermine a possible friendship with that damning introduction? |
33353 | Why had an undiscriminating Providence given her an Aunt Adelaide at all? |
33353 | Why had he not written after what had occurred? |
33353 | Why had it not bestowed this inestimable treasure upon someone more deserving? |
33353 | Why had she not met these people in a conventional way so that she might preserve their friendship? |
33353 | Why had she not written to him instead of endeavouring to express verbally what she knew she would fail to convey? |
33353 | Why must she take up this absurd attitude, contorting every action of his into a covert insult? |
33353 | Why on earth do we know so many people, Goddy? |
33353 | Why should people lose all sense of dignity and proportion at a set period of the year? |
33353 | Why should she be made ridiculous in this fashion? |
33353 | Why was he behaving like a schoolboy? |
33353 | Why was it assumed because a woman did not marry that no one wanted to marry her? |
33353 | Why was she hurrying home? |
33353 | Why was she there? |
33353 | Why? |
33353 | Why?" |
33353 | Will half- past eight do?" |
33353 | Will you dine with me to- night and when may I take you to Grosvenor Square? |
33353 | Will you tell us about-- about----?" |
33353 | Wo n''t you let me pick you up? |
33353 | Would he be content with his dismissal? |
33353 | Would her knees play her false and cheat her? |
33353 | Would it never end? |
33353 | Would n''t we, Goddy?" |
33353 | Would not Miss Brent bring Lady Tanagra to tea or to luncheon one day? |
33353 | Would she go abroad for her honeymoon? |
33353 | Would the King and Queen be present at the wedding? |
33353 | Would you tell them?" |
33353 | Yes, he''s quite a decent- looking old thing, and he''s given Galvin House something to talk about, has n''t he?" |
33353 | You will forgive me, dearest, wo n''t you?" |
33353 | You wo n''t let me ever regret it, will you?" |
33353 | You wo n''t think me inquisitive, will you?" |
33353 | have you seen your beautiful presents?" |
33353 | how can you suggest such a thing?" |
33353 | said Elton with a smile,"shall we continue our talk over lunch, if you have no engagement?" |
33353 | said Patricia, light dawning upon her and turning to Tanagra with a smile,"Then you''re the solution?" |
33353 | she added,"that''s almost legal in its ambiguity, is n''t it?" |
33353 | simpered Miss Sikkum,"are n''t you going to say good night to him?" |
33353 | what are you thinking of me? |
33353 | what do you mean?" |
33353 | what is the matter?" |
33353 | what would''Ettie say if she knew?" |
33353 | whatever is the matter? |
33353 | where are my manners?" |
33353 | why will you persist in being a cold douche? |
33353 | you wo n''t do it again, will you?" |
284 | A flirtation? 284 A great deal more? |
284 | A great deal of money? 284 A quarter past ten? |
284 | A-- hem-- nothing of this, eh, Selden? 284 ARE you, though, Lily-- to the point of rejecting my offer?" |
284 | Ah, but I do n''t suppose that: have n''t I told you that your genius lies in converting impulses into intentions? |
284 | Ah, is that George''s version? 284 Ah, you are as bad as the other sectarians,"she exclaimed;"why do you call your republic a republic? |
284 | Ah-- but will he find you in the end? 284 Alone--? |
284 | An hotel-- HERE-- that you can go to alone? 284 And Americana are horribly dull, I suppose?" |
284 | And Americana-- do you collect Americana? |
284 | And at this hour of the day I do n''t suppose you''ve a single one left, have you, Lily? |
284 | And having to work-- do you mind that? |
284 | And how,she said, leaning forward,"are you getting on with your Americana?" |
284 | And supposing I wo n''t ring for one-- what''ll you do then? |
284 | And that nice little balcony is yours? 284 And yet they fetch fabulous prices, do n''t they? |
284 | And you have come to it now? |
284 | Angry with you? 284 Another dividend?" |
284 | Are you ill? |
284 | At seven? |
284 | Be able to manage it? 284 Been up to town for a little shopping, I suppose?" |
284 | Bertha never turned up at all? 284 Borrow-- easy for me to borrow?" |
284 | Bridge? 284 But do n''t you want me to see you to the station?" |
284 | But do you mind enough-- to marry to get out of it? |
284 | But have n''t I? |
284 | But how am I to get home? 284 But in what capacity? |
284 | But is n''t it possible that, if I had the opportunities of these people, I might make a better use of them? 284 But see here-- if that''s the case, it cleans you out altogether?" |
284 | But there must be some one----"Some one to whom I can go? 284 But what IS your story, Lily? |
284 | But what can they do-- the Miss Silvertons? 284 But why are you going? |
284 | But why ca n''t we be friends-- why not, when I''ve repented in dust and ashes? 284 But you belittle ME, do n''t you,"she returned gently,"in being so sure they are the only things I care for?" |
284 | Buy the dirty sheet? 284 By Jove,--but is n''t she about somewhere?" |
284 | By not having the superhuman cleverness to discover you in that frightful rush for the train? 284 Can they cook terrapin? |
284 | Cards-- you''ve played cards for money? 284 Come off-- you ai n''t serious, are you?" |
284 | DENOUEMENT-- isn''t that too big a word for such a small incident? 284 Dear me, am I late?" |
284 | Dearest Lily,it ran,"if it is not too much of a bore to be down by ten, will you come to my sitting- room to help me with some tiresome things?" |
284 | Did n''t he intend to, Judy? 284 Did she? |
284 | Did you notice the women? 284 Did you really come to Bellomont to see me?" |
284 | Disappointed? 284 Do I look ill? |
284 | Do n''t I just? 284 Do n''t they always go from bad to worse? |
284 | Do n''t you ever mind,she asked suddenly,"not being rich enough to buy all the books you want?" |
284 | Do n''t you see that I wish to go by? 284 Do you know of a quiet hotel? |
284 | Do you know,she exclaimed after a long pause,"I believe I''ll call up Lawrence on the telephone and tell him he simply MUST come?" |
284 | Do you mean that I owe you money? |
284 | Do you mean that Judy is not in the house-- not in town? |
284 | Do you mean to say that Judy''s not well enough to see me? 284 Do you mean, like Gerty Farish, to recommend the unfailing panacea of''a good man''s love''?" |
284 | Do you remember what you said to me once? 284 Do you see him often?" |
284 | Do you think I am uncomplimentary? 284 Do you wish to see me?" |
284 | Dreadful things-- what things? |
284 | Either? 284 Every one heard, of course, that there had been some disagreement-- some misunderstanding----""Did she hear that Bertha turned me off the yacht?" |
284 | Freedom? 284 From the beginning?" |
284 | Furious with you? 284 Gambling debts? |
284 | George Dorset? 284 Gerty, are people going to cut me?" |
284 | Good Lord-- YOU? 284 Gus Trenor?--Lily and Gus Trenor?" |
284 | Hallo, Selden, going too? 284 Have I time? |
284 | He went to find me? 284 Hints-- from me to you?" |
284 | How can you talk so, Lily? 284 How do you know the other women do n''t go to my dress- maker?" |
284 | How do you know what I should be doing if you were not here? |
284 | How on earth could Judy think you would do such a thing? 284 I do n''t understand; if this parcel is not mine, why have you asked for me?" |
284 | I hope you''ve managed to make yourself comfortable, dear? 284 I wonder if you''ll cry out just as loud if I say-- Sim Rosedale?" |
284 | I''m afraid I have n''t any cream, you know-- shall you mind a slice of lemon instead? |
284 | I''m dying for tea-- but is n''t there a quieter place? |
284 | If they are not true,she said,"does n''t THAT alter the situation?" |
284 | Including ME? |
284 | Is it quite right-- I have n''t made it too strong? |
284 | Is it so very bad? |
284 | Is it-- need it be? 284 Is n''t everything beautifully done?" |
284 | Is n''t marriage your vocation? 284 Is that the name of this building?" |
284 | Is that what you would do in such an emergency? |
284 | Is the feeling so rare with you? |
284 | Is there any final test of genius but success? 284 It does n''t sound very amusing, does it? |
284 | It''s charming of you to remember me, dear; but really----"You''re already so well provided for? |
284 | It''s over, then? 284 It''s understood, then?" |
284 | Keeping together? 284 Late for what?" |
284 | Lecture you-- I? 284 Lily!----PERCY? |
284 | Lily, dear, if you''ve nothing special to do, may I tell Carry Fisher that you intend to drive to the station and fetch Gus? 284 Lily-- can''t I help you?" |
284 | Lily-- what is it? |
284 | Lily? 284 Look here, Lily: wo n''t you give me five minutes of your own accord?" |
284 | Lose her? |
284 | Making love to me without asking me to marry you? |
284 | May I come in and smoke a cigarette over your fire? 284 Me?" |
284 | Miss Bart!--You''ll shake hands, wo n''t you? 284 Miss Bart? |
284 | Mrs. Fisher''s? 284 My dear Gerty, you would n''t have me let the head- waiter see that I''ve nothing to live on but Aunt Julia''s legacy? |
284 | My dear, you do n''t mean to say you''re still in town? 284 My genius?" |
284 | My idea of it? 284 No; but the being tied down: the routine-- don''t you ever want to get away, to see new places and people?" |
284 | Not a drop of brandy or whiskey first? 284 Not for luncheon, certainly-- but perhaps you had an earlier engagement?" |
284 | Not yet up? 284 Not your fault that Bertha did n''t turn up? |
284 | Nothing will, I am sure; but while there''s even a doubt left, how can you think I would leave Bertha? |
284 | Nothing? 284 Now what on earth does that mean? |
284 | Of course you''ve heard that he''s perfectly devoted to Evie Van Osburgh? 284 Oh, Lily-- are you going to Bellomont? |
284 | Oh, Mr. Gryce, is it you? 284 Oh, Mr. Rosedale-- how are you?" |
284 | Oh, is she, though? 284 Other things being equal, I think I should prefer a half- husband: who is he?" |
284 | Out of spirits? 284 Owe it? |
284 | PEAS? |
284 | Pay up? |
284 | Pays her bills-- her bills? |
284 | People ca n''t marry you if they do n''t see you-- and how can they see you in these holes where we''re stuck? |
284 | Really? 284 Ruined----?" |
284 | Shall we go over to Sherry''s for a cup of tea? |
284 | Six dozen what? |
284 | So soon? 284 Success-- what is success? |
284 | Success? |
284 | That rests with you, does n''t it? 284 That''s what Bertha means, is n''t it?" |
284 | The Benedick? |
284 | The Trenors''? |
284 | The afternoon is so perfect-- don''t you want to drive me a little farther? 284 The privilege of driving me home? |
284 | The reason for what? |
284 | The whole truth? |
284 | Then the best you can say for me is, that after struggling to get them I probably sha n''t like them? |
284 | Then why do we never see each other? 284 Then why go?" |
284 | Then you have come now because you think you can be of use to me? |
284 | This is n''t the place? 284 To leave--? |
284 | To stop here? 284 To support themselves? |
284 | To take me out of my friends''way, you mean? |
284 | Twelve dollars-- twelve dollars a day for flowers? 284 Unhappy at being with the Gormers?" |
284 | Waited for the one- horse cab? 284 Waiting for me, I hope?" |
284 | Walking? 284 Was it? |
284 | Was n''t it a soft berth? |
284 | Was n''t it dear of Lily to get me an invitation? 284 Was n''t she too beautiful, Lawrence? |
284 | Well, is n''t that a tribute? 284 Well, then----?" |
284 | Well, what''s the use of mincing matters? 284 Well, why not, dear? |
284 | Well, why not? 284 Well,"he said,"did it make you want to see more? |
284 | Well-- have you never foreseen it for yourself? |
284 | Well-- why should n''t you hear my reasons for doing it, then? 284 Well----?" |
284 | Well? 284 Were you serious?" |
284 | What IS, then? 284 What are you thinking of, you incorrigible missionary?" |
284 | What do you mean by her gambling debts? |
284 | What happened-- an accident to the train? |
284 | What is it that you wish? |
284 | What is the matter, Hudson? 284 What is truth? |
284 | What is your idea of being good friends? |
284 | What more have you to say? |
284 | What on earth have you been buying? 284 What sort of things do they say? |
284 | What things? 284 What''s become of Dillworth?" |
284 | What? |
284 | Whatever happens? 284 When I was Judy''s friend? |
284 | When is Lady Cressida going? |
284 | When may I come to you? |
284 | Whereas, in reality, you think I can never even get my foot across the threshold? 284 Which are your windows? |
284 | Which way are you going? 284 Who are one''s friends at such a time? |
284 | Who told you that my niece played cards for money? |
284 | Who''s that? 284 Why did n''t she look me up herself, then?" |
284 | Why do we call all our generous ideas illusions, and the mean ones truths? 284 Why do you do this to me?" |
284 | Why do you make the things I have chosen seem hateful to me, if you have nothing to give me instead? |
284 | Why do you talk of saying goodbye? 284 Why limited? |
284 | Why must you go, I should like to know? 284 Why not Selden? |
284 | Why not? 284 Why not? |
284 | Why not? 284 Why not?" |
284 | Why should I have come, unless I thought I could be of use to you? 284 Why such unnatural abstinence? |
284 | Why, do n''t you smoke? 284 Why, what''s the matter, Miss Lily? |
284 | Why? |
284 | Will you let her stay with you? |
284 | Would n''t it be too lovely for anything if she could grow up to be just like you? 284 YOU in trouble? |
284 | Yes, that''s the name: I believe it''s an old word for bachelor, is n''t it? 284 You collect, do n''t you-- you know about first editions and things?" |
284 | You did n''t know Jack had become our social censor? |
284 | You do n''t mean--? 284 You do n''t sleep at night? |
284 | You do see, do n''t you? 284 You do?" |
284 | You have found something belonging to me? |
284 | You have something to tell me-- do you mean to marry? |
284 | You heard I had gone to her as her secretary? |
284 | You know Mrs. Hatch, I think? 284 You mean that she''d shock him and he''d bore her? |
284 | You mean to say that I''m not as desirable a match as you thought me? |
284 | You missed us? 284 You play cards on Sunday?" |
284 | You show such an intimate acquaintance with my affairs that I suppose you mean-- till my aunt''s legacy is paid? |
284 | You stupid dear, why do you say such odious things to me? 284 You think me horribly sordid, do n''t you? |
284 | You understand what the doctor has gone for? 284 You were as kind as possible; but I have had to get a few things since----""What kind of things? |
284 | You will do as I tell you? 284 You''ll let me stay? |
284 | You''re quite sure,she added solicitously, as the latter extricated herself,"that you would n''t like me to telephone for Lawrence Selden?" |
284 | You''re sure you wo n''t let me warm up a drop of coffee for you, Miss Bart? 284 You''re wondering how I found out about''em?" |
284 | Your FRIENDS, Lily-- how can you think it? |
284 | Your coat''s a little shabby-- but who cares? 284 Your engagement to go to church with Muriel and Hilda?" |
284 | Your street? 284 After all, Grace could come any other day; why should she mind being put off? 284 After all, this was an unexpectedly easy way of acquitting her debt; and had she not reasons of her own for wishing to be civil to Mr. Rosedale? 284 After all, what did he know of her life? 284 After that she had a right to retaliate-- why on earth did you interfere with her? 284 Ah, in New York, is she? 284 Ai n''t we going to be good friends all the same? |
284 | All this in confidence, of course? |
284 | Almost at once he answered quite simply:"But you do care for them, do n''t you? |
284 | Am I not her friend still? |
284 | And Aunt Julia--?" |
284 | And I suppose most of the owners of Americana are not historians either?" |
284 | And Lord Hubert has promised to tell us who all the awful people are at the other place-- hasn''t he, Carry? |
284 | And again:"Be good to her, Gerty, wo n''t you?" |
284 | And besides, I suppose she''ll be off herself before long-- the first of August, you say? |
284 | And besides, what was there to go home to? |
284 | And even could it have been found, how were the ladies on whose approval she depended to be induced to give her their patronage? |
284 | And is the other person coming home this way?" |
284 | And so why not take the plunge and have it over?" |
284 | And so you gave him the sack, and that''s the reason why he lit out by the first train this morning?" |
284 | And then what can I do-- how on earth am I to keep myself alive? |
284 | And to divert her companion''s attention she added, with an attempt at lightness:"And your second candidate? |
284 | And to what degree was her dread of a catastrophe intensified by the sense of being fatally involved in it? |
284 | And was he to be there for a whole week? |
284 | And was it her fault that the purely decorative mission is less easily and harmoniously fulfilled among social beings than in the world of nature? |
284 | And was not Dorset, to whom his glance had passed by a natural transition, too jerkily wavering between the same extremes? |
284 | And what hand but hers could drag him up again to a footing of sanity and self- respect? |
284 | And who could consent to be bored on such a morning? |
284 | And who else is there? |
284 | And why should Bertha Dorset have turned into an enemy at the very moment when she so obviously needed the support of her sex? |
284 | Are there actually two?" |
284 | Are they so hard up?" |
284 | Are you going to become one of us?" |
284 | Are you ill?" |
284 | As she handed back the reins, she said sympathetically:"Did you have such a lot of tiresome things to do?" |
284 | At sight of Lily the glow deepened to an embarrassed red, and she said with a slight laugh:"Did you see my visitor? |
284 | Between my niece and a married man? |
284 | But I thought Mr. Gryce was to stay for the rest of the week?" |
284 | But WERE such apparitions unwonted on Selden''s stairs? |
284 | But ca n''t I at least appeal to your pity? |
284 | But could photography capture that light? |
284 | But for her, what ear would have been open to his cries? |
284 | But he remained mutely resistant, and she added:"What are you going to do? |
284 | But he''s horribly shy, and easily shocked, and-- and----""Why do n''t you say it, Judy? |
284 | But how could she trust herself to keep her footing? |
284 | But how destroy them so effectually that there should be no second risk of their falling in such hands? |
284 | But if anything should, why be in the way of it?" |
284 | But it''s usually the other way round, is n''t it? |
284 | But meanwhile, what do you say to putting a few things in a trunk and coming down with me to the Sam Gormers''tonight?" |
284 | But of course I won''t-- why did n''t you give me a hint last night? |
284 | But sometimes she was forgetful-- and sometimes, could it be that she was proud? |
284 | But there''s such a thing as fair play-- and interest on one''s money-- and hang me if I''ve had as much as a look from you----""Your money? |
284 | But were n''t you sure that I should come?" |
284 | But what HAVE you done to her, Lily? |
284 | But what did she intend to do with its contents? |
284 | But what did that matter, now that a new day had come? |
284 | But what for? |
284 | But what manner of life would it be? |
284 | But what was there that Rosedale did not hear? |
284 | But whose fault was it? |
284 | But why ai n''t you straight with me-- why do you put up that kind of bluff? |
284 | But why had she failed? |
284 | But wo n''t you eat something? |
284 | But you could n''t, eh? |
284 | Ca n''t I move you if I ask you to think of me as a prisoner-- a prisoner you alone can set free?" |
284 | Ca n''t some one be put somewhere else? |
284 | Can you imagine looking into your glass some morning and seeing a disfigurement-- some hideous change that has come to you while you slept? |
284 | Clothes? |
284 | Could Selden picture her in such an interior? |
284 | Could it be that her aunt suspected anything? |
284 | Could one never do the simplest, the most harmless thing, without subjecting one''s self to some odious conjecture? |
284 | DO you say so, Miss Lily?" |
284 | Did I tell you that Lily had given us three hundred dollars? |
284 | Did Judy really think you could bring yourself to marry that portentous little ass? |
284 | Did he really mean to ask her to marry him? |
284 | Did she think that only the payment of the legacies had been delayed? |
284 | Did the cheque to Trenor explain the mystery or deepen it? |
284 | Did you ever see such jewels? |
284 | Did you ever taste anything more delicious than that MOUSSE of lobster with champagne sauce? |
284 | Did you ever watch Trenor eat? |
284 | Dining here? |
284 | Do n''t you feel strong enough to walk on a little ways now?" |
284 | Do n''t you like her best in that simple dress? |
284 | Do n''t you see how beautifully it would work out for you both?" |
284 | Do people say he''s in love with her?" |
284 | Do you dislike him so much?" |
284 | Do you know at what time she came on board? |
284 | Do you know if he found him?" |
284 | Do you know, Lily, he told me he had never seen a girl play cards for money till he saw you doing it the other night? |
284 | Do you live here?" |
284 | Do you mean to say you''ve actually done it?" |
284 | Do you owe two? |
284 | Do you see where I''m coming out? |
284 | Do you take me for a saint on a pillar?" |
284 | Does he mind bridge, too? |
284 | Does my face show it?" |
284 | Does n''t she want me to go upstairs?" |
284 | Does n''t this room look as if it was waiting for the body to be brought down? |
284 | Does one go to Caliban for a judgment on Miranda? |
284 | EVIE VAN OSBURGH? |
284 | Especially if he marries my clever cousin----"Selden dashed in with the query:"And the Wellington Brys''? |
284 | Ever forget, and feel as they did before?" |
284 | Ever try orangeine?" |
284 | Every one knows, as you say, that Lily is too handsome and-- and charming-- to devote herself to a man like Gus Trenor unless--""Unless?" |
284 | Every sleepless night leaves a new one-- and how can I sleep, when I have such dreadful things to think about?" |
284 | Evie Van Osburgh and Percy Gryce? |
284 | Freedom from worries?" |
284 | Gerty cried in a strange voice,"how could you get here so quickly?" |
284 | Goddesses? |
284 | Grotesque? |
284 | HAS it started, do you know?" |
284 | Had he returned to the Sabrina? |
284 | Had it been produced, she wondered, by her chance meeting with Selden? |
284 | Had she gone to bed? |
284 | Had she lacked patience, pliancy and dissimulation? |
284 | Had she shown an undue eagerness for victory? |
284 | Had you known her before?" |
284 | Have you a fire?" |
284 | Have you noticed that ALL the husbands like her? |
284 | Have you seen Evie? |
284 | He DIDN''T lose? |
284 | He added tentatively, after pausing to grope for a cigarette:"Miss Bart''s an old friend of yours, I believe? |
284 | He''s a lawyer is n''t he? |
284 | He''s such a nice boy-- I wonder what drove him away? |
284 | Her voice sank to a whisper:"And if she refuses?" |
284 | How about the irreclaimable ones, though? |
284 | How could he lift Lily to a freer vision of life, if his own view of her was to be coloured by any mind in which he saw her reflected? |
284 | How do they mean to support themselves?" |
284 | How many have you broken for me?" |
284 | How much did he know of what was going on, and how much, for his purpose, was still worth finding out? |
284 | How much have you spent? |
284 | How much of it was owing to the spell of the perfect afternoon, the scent of the fading woods, the thought of the dulness she had fled from? |
284 | How should she have distrusted her powers? |
284 | How then would he use his power when her expression of contempt had dispelled his one motive for restraint? |
284 | How''d I know? |
284 | How, moreover, can a young woman who has never been ignored measure the pang which this injury inflicts? |
284 | I did n''t tell you I had a baby, did I? |
284 | I do so enjoy the quiet-- don''t you, Lily? |
284 | I have n''t kept you up too late, Gerty? |
284 | I have the reputation of being on the hunt for a rich husband?" |
284 | I sha n''t mind when daylight comes-- Is it late? |
284 | I was punished enough at the time-- is there to be no respite for me?" |
284 | I''ll be there sharp, remember; you wo n''t go back on me, Lily?" |
284 | IF SHE DID NOT MARRY HIM? |
284 | If her aunt turned such a stony ear to the fiction of the gambling debts, in what spirit would she receive the terrible avowal of the truth? |
284 | If the girl was afraid, was she afraid for herself or for her friends? |
284 | If you really want to see me, why should n''t we take a walk in the Park some afternoon? |
284 | In fact, people are inclined to excuse her on that account----""To excuse her for what?" |
284 | In this house?" |
284 | Is it a celibate order?" |
284 | Is n''t it a jolly little house? |
284 | Is n''t it a sufficient condemnation of society to find one''s self accepting such phraseology? |
284 | Is n''t it fairer to look at them both as opportunities, which may be used either stupidly or intelligently, according to the capacity of the user?" |
284 | Is n''t it hard that you should condemn me to suffer for the falseness, the treachery of others? |
284 | Is n''t it what you''re all brought up for?" |
284 | Is n''t that what she told Gwen Stepney?" |
284 | Is n''t that your idea of it?" |
284 | Is that any excuse? |
284 | Is that the last creation of the dress- maker you go to see at the Benedick? |
284 | Is the night nearly over? |
284 | Is there any one else? |
284 | Is your last box of Doucet dresses a failure, or did Judy rook you out of everything at bridge last night?" |
284 | It was Rosedale, fur- coated, glossy and prosperous-- but why did she seem to see him so far off, and as if through a mist of splintered crystals? |
284 | It was a hateful fate-- but how escape from it? |
284 | It was her turn to look at him with surprise; and after a moment--"Do you want to marry me?" |
284 | It would scarcely have carried the four of us, do you think?" |
284 | It''s settled? |
284 | It''s too late to walk there, you say? |
284 | Jewelry? |
284 | Let me light a cigar, will you? |
284 | Lily flushed at the suddenness of the attack; then she stiffened under it and said coldly:"And may I ask where you mean me to go?" |
284 | Lily''s glance fell on a word here and there-- then she said in a low voice:"What do you wish me to pay you?" |
284 | Lily''s inward start betrayed itself in a quick blush: was it possible that this was really the sense of Carry Fisher''s adumbrations? |
284 | Lily?" |
284 | Lily?" |
284 | Limited by luncheon?" |
284 | Look me straight in the face, Gerty, and tell me: am I perfectly frightful?" |
284 | Luckily I had foreseen the risk I was taking----""So that you really did n''t care----?" |
284 | Mattie Gormer told me that Morpeth wanted to paint you-- why do n''t you let him?" |
284 | May n''t I tell the florist to send a few every day?" |
284 | Might n''t there be circumstances----?" |
284 | Mrs. Dorset, examining her between lowered lids, met this with the immediate query:"Who told you that?" |
284 | Not so bad for a beginner, eh? |
284 | Now did n''t she?" |
284 | Now, what has changed in the interval? |
284 | Now, what have you got to say against that?" |
284 | Of course-- any number-- but at THIS hour? |
284 | Oh, by Jove-- you do n''t mean Gryce? |
284 | Oh, how do you do, Mr. Gryce? |
284 | Oh, my dear, did you ever see such pearls?" |
284 | Oh-- the reason they chucked Sicily and rushed back? |
284 | One sits out a cotillion-- why not sit out a train? |
284 | Only, with such a doom impending, why waste time in these childish efforts to avert it? |
284 | Or could Bertha-- the dread alternative sprang on her suddenly-- could Bertha, left to herself, have gone ashore to rejoin him? |
284 | Or would he pity me, and understand me, and save me from loathing myself?" |
284 | Percy Gryce? |
284 | Perhaps I am in the way, then? |
284 | Rather clever of its kind, do n''t you think?" |
284 | Rather original of them, do n''t you think so? |
284 | Shall we walk a bit?" |
284 | She could bear it-- yes, she could bear it; but what strength would be left her the next day? |
284 | She felt a thrill of vexation: what right had he to touch her? |
284 | She had been fashioned to adorn and delight; to what other end does nature round the rose- leaf and paint the humming- bird''s breast? |
284 | She had been so contented, life had seemed so simple and sufficient-- why had he come to trouble her with new hopes? |
284 | She had heard of my break with the Dorsets?" |
284 | She had made the caramel custard with her own hands? |
284 | She paused, and went on, dropping her glance from Lily''s:"He would n''t stay with her ten minutes if he KNEW----""Knew----?" |
284 | She was too self- engrossed to penetrate the recesses of his shyness, and besides, why should she care to give herself the trouble? |
284 | Since when have you given it up? |
284 | Since when?" |
284 | Something has happened-- an accident? |
284 | Something has happened-- can''t you tell me?" |
284 | Stay for supper? |
284 | Talk of jewels-- what''s a woman want with jewels when she''s got herself to show? |
284 | Tell me-- do they ever pick themselves up? |
284 | That Farish boy? |
284 | That he means to get a divorce and marry her?" |
284 | That it is apt to be hampered by material necessities or complicated by moral scruples? |
284 | That man is a perfect barometer-- he always knows when Bertha is going to----""To fall?" |
284 | That you could help me only by loving me? |
284 | The Trenors are at Bellomont, of course? |
284 | The lines in her face came out terribly-- she looked old; and when a girl looks old to herself, how does she look to other people? |
284 | The one with the green Paradise? |
284 | The puerility of the attempt disarmed Lily''s indignation: did it not prove how horribly the poor creature was frightened? |
284 | The whole ten thousand?" |
284 | The words rang out on a note of contempt-- was it possibly of contempt for himself? |
284 | Then how on earth did she get back?" |
284 | Then she had been planning to marry Percy Gryce-- what was it she was planning now? |
284 | Then you ca n''t let me have your seat, I suppose? |
284 | Then you thought you could do better; now----""You think you can?" |
284 | There would be a perilous moment, perhaps: but could she not trust to her beauty to bridge it over, to land her safe in the shelter of his devotion? |
284 | There''s a lad just setting out to discover the universe: is n''t it a pity he should end by finding it in Mrs. Fisher''s drawing- room?" |
284 | There''s nothing grimmer than the tragedy that wears a comic mask.... Where was he? |
284 | Think it''s funny I should say that? |
284 | Thinner--? |
284 | This vast mysterious Wall Street world of"tips"and"deals"--might she not find in it the means of escape from her dreary predicament? |
284 | Those with the awnings down?" |
284 | Was it a growing distaste for her task, or actual physical disability? |
284 | Was it her own fault or that of destiny? |
284 | Was it love, she wondered, or a mere fortuitous combination of happy thoughts and sensations? |
284 | Was it mad with mommer for getting its supper so late? |
284 | Was it merely the expression of her displeasure at Miss Bart''s neglect, or had disquieting rumours reached her? |
284 | Was it only ten years since she had wavered in imagination between the English earl and the Italian prince? |
284 | Was it possible that her old beast of an aunt had actually cut her off? |
284 | Was it possible that she belonged to the same race? |
284 | Was it possible, after all, that he had come for Bertha Dorset? |
284 | Was it to see herself or Bertha Dorset? |
284 | Was n''t it splendid of her? |
284 | Was n''t she wonderful last night?" |
284 | Was she not, indeed, too free, too fluent, for perfect naturalness? |
284 | Was there not a promise of rescue in his love? |
284 | Well, what''s the harm? |
284 | Well-- what had brought him there but the quest of her? |
284 | What WILL happen?" |
284 | What am I to do with you?" |
284 | What are you chucking it away for?" |
284 | What can one do when one finds that one only fits into one hole? |
284 | What chance could such a simpleton have against her if she chose to exert herself? |
284 | What choice had she? |
284 | What debt did she owe to a social order which had condemned and banished her without trial? |
284 | What did he mean by looking at her in that way? |
284 | What did the creature suppose? |
284 | What do you mean? |
284 | What do you mean? |
284 | What do you think he said to me after her TABLEAU? |
284 | What does that matter, when it''s so light and alive? |
284 | What else is there?" |
284 | What had brought her to this pass? |
284 | What has happened?" |
284 | What have I to do with your money? |
284 | What if she made him marry her for love, now that he had no other reason for marrying her? |
284 | What if she now chose to exert the power which, even in its passive state, he had felt so strongly? |
284 | What if the effect of the drug should gradually fail, as all narcotics were said to fail? |
284 | What is going to happen?" |
284 | What is the name? |
284 | What made her so much more clumsy than usual? |
284 | What more have you done than any friend might do, or any one accept from a friend?" |
284 | What prevented her from saying:"He is like other men?" |
284 | What right had she to dream the dreams of loveliness? |
284 | What sweet shall we have today, dear-- COUPE JACQUES or PECHES A LA MELBA?" |
284 | What was the use of living if one had to live like a pig? |
284 | What was this outpouring of senseless bitterness but the tracked creature''s attempt to cloud the medium through which it was fleeing? |
284 | What weakness had placed her so abominably at her enemy''s mercy? |
284 | What will she think?" |
284 | What wind of folly had driven her out again on those dark seas? |
284 | What''s on tonight? |
284 | What, that horrid man? |
284 | What, then, if the passion persisted, though the other motive had ceased to sustain it? |
284 | What-- you do? |
284 | What-- you never---- And you do n''t either, Mr. Gryce? |
284 | When had Lily ever really felt, or pitied, or understood? |
284 | When he was with us?" |
284 | When it was you who seized the first opportunity to rush off with the Duchess and her friends? |
284 | When, in such matters, are a woman''s perceptions at fault? |
284 | Where was Lily to find such support? |
284 | Where was she going, by the way? |
284 | Where was the drug that could still this legion of insurgent nerves? |
284 | Who but Selden could thus miraculously combine the skill to save Bertha with the obligation of doing so? |
284 | Who can have given it?" |
284 | Who said she was in town, by the way? |
284 | Who wants a dingy woman? |
284 | Who, but you, you poor trustful darling? |
284 | Why ca n''t we be friends? |
284 | Why ca n''t you come back to Bellomont this evening? |
284 | Why could one never do a natural thing without having to screen it behind a structure of artifice? |
284 | Why did n''t you call on me to share your vigil?" |
284 | Why do n''t you come oftener?" |
284 | Why do n''t you tell me frankly that I''m a wreck? |
284 | Why else did you ask me to let you off bridge, and to keep away Carry and Kate Corby? |
284 | Why else had she suddenly grown interested in Selden? |
284 | Why had he come? |
284 | Why had she been writing to Trenor-- writing, presumably, just after their parting of the previous evening? |
284 | Why must a girl pay so dearly for her least escape from routine? |
284 | Why on earth should you ever be out of spirits? |
284 | Why should I mind saying I want to get into society? |
284 | Why should she have been angry? |
284 | Why wo n''t you sit down and let me make you comfortable?" |
284 | Why, do n''t you like it? |
284 | Why, what on earth are you doing?" |
284 | Why? |
284 | Why?" |
284 | Will you come tomorrow? |
284 | Will you join us on a cruise in Mediterranean?" |
284 | Would she still reject them if they were offered? |
284 | Yes-- but what if the letter to Trenor had been written afterward? |
284 | You can frighten her fast enough-- but how are you going to keep her frightened? |
284 | You do n''t mean that you wo n''t help me?" |
284 | You do n''t want to keep me bound fast in hell, do you? |
284 | You have been frightened-- what has frightened you? |
284 | You remember what fun Lady Skiddaw was? |
284 | You saw it, then?" |
284 | You say she was dining there? |
284 | You understand? |
284 | You waited for us at the station?" |
284 | You wo n''t take a drop, just for sociability? |
284 | You''re sure?" |
284 | You''ve known Lawrence Selden for years-- why did you behave as if you had just discovered him? |
284 | and:"She has it in her to become whatever she is believed to be-- you''ll help her by believing the best of her?" |
284 | he exclaimed; and to her murmur of"Ah, we do NOW,"he retorted with a sudden burst of violence:"I suppose it''s because the letters are to HIM, then? |
284 | what could I do-- wasn''t I powerless? |
284 | what has happened? |
284 | you know the noise of their wings-- alone, at night, in the dark? |
41646 | ''"In what way, Sir?" |
41646 | ''"Is it news from Jamaica then? |
41646 | ''A cold?'' |
41646 | ''Ah, tell me, my sister, what hopes are there that Emmeline will pardon me? |
41646 | ''Alive and well?'' |
41646 | ''And Lord Montreville?'' |
41646 | ''And are all the family there?'' |
41646 | ''And did he not object,''enquired Lady Adelina,''to your quitting England, since he is himself returned to it?'' |
41646 | ''And do you mean that we should begin our journey to- morrow?'' |
41646 | ''And does he tell you no news,''asked Lady Montreville? |
41646 | ''And from thence to East Cliff?'' |
41646 | ''And from whence,''enquired Emmeline,''did he come?'' |
41646 | ''And has she not preferred a request to you?'' |
41646 | ''And he had every assistance?'' |
41646 | ''And he has brought you, I fear, some ill news of your family?'' |
41646 | ''And how happened you to be where he found you, Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | ''And how long do you think,''said she, again recurring to Delamere--''how long may he linger before the event will be known?'' |
41646 | ''And how,''enquired Godolphin,''did you accomplish it?'' |
41646 | ''And if Bellozane should enquire whither you are going? |
41646 | ''And is Adelina so thin and pale,''asked her Ladyship,''as she is here represented?'' |
41646 | ''And is it anger and resentment only have raised in your heart this decided enmity to my poor brother? |
41646 | ''And is it possible you are ignorant of his having left London this morning, immediately after he returned from visiting you?'' |
41646 | ''And not one word,''cried he,''not one parting good wish to your little_ protegà ©_--to my poor William?'' |
41646 | ''And shall he who has wounded it,''slowly and sternly replied Godolphin--''shall he who has wounded it so basely, escape me?'' |
41646 | ''And what business could Sir Richard Crofts possibly have with you?'' |
41646 | ''And what has a man to answer for, who thus comes to insult his victim, and to rob her of the little tranquillity time may have restored to her?'' |
41646 | ''And when are they expected?'' |
41646 | ''And where do you expect to get money?'' |
41646 | ''And where is Mr. Delamere wandering to?'' |
41646 | ''And whither would you go, Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | ''And who, Madam, has said that I dare not own her? |
41646 | ''And why not to herself? |
41646 | ''And why not? |
41646 | ''And why not?'' |
41646 | ''And will you leave me, then, Emmeline?--leave me too in anger?'' |
41646 | ''And will you not write to my sister?'' |
41646 | ''And you allow me, then, to go instantly to Lord Montreville?'' |
41646 | ''And you dine alone, and will allow me the happiness of dining with you?'' |
41646 | ''And you will allow me to see you safe thither?'' |
41646 | ''And_ is_ he,''enquired Lady Westhaven,''so_ very_ charming as his brother and his family represent him?'' |
41646 | ''Are they all well?'' |
41646 | ''Are you acquainted then with Miss Mowbray, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''Are you acquainted with her?'' |
41646 | ''Are you going immediately to London?'' |
41646 | ''Are you going then, Sir, before my Lord and Lady?'' |
41646 | ''As what, Sir, should I remember you, but as my persecutor? |
41646 | ''At Woodfield, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''Before I am sure he desires it?'' |
41646 | ''But Lord Delamere, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''But how do you know, Barret, that your lady employs herself in writing verses about her own unhappiness?'' |
41646 | ''But it is very cold,''remarked he:''had not you better take a cloak?'' |
41646 | ''But may he not immediately return thither from Geneva or any other place? |
41646 | ''But since you are so tenderly disposed towards your own family, would it not be well if you were to enquire after my mother? |
41646 | ''But they are well, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''But what-- what is to be done, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''But whence comes it that you sail only to- night, if your friend was so much hurried?'' |
41646 | ''But you will come with us, brother?--Surely you will now come home?'' |
41646 | ''But, Sir, when may they be expected in England?'' |
41646 | ''But, Sir,''enquired Mr. Lawson,''after what you have told me of your father, have you no apprehension of a pursuit?'' |
41646 | ''By way of Paris?'' |
41646 | ''Can nothing be done for these poor creatures?'' |
41646 | ''Can you then suppose I will leave her? |
41646 | ''Crofts''wife?'' |
41646 | ''Delamere, still on his knees, looked sorrowfully up, as if to enquire what reparation he could make? |
41646 | ''Delamere,''said she, in a low and tremulous voice,''Delamere, why is all this? |
41646 | ''Did I not hear him groan, and see him die? |
41646 | ''Did it? |
41646 | ''Did you answer it?'' |
41646 | ''Did you not tell me he was in tolerable health?'' |
41646 | ''Did you observe,''said Emmeline,''the phaeton which drove in just now?'' |
41646 | ''Do n''t tell me of Mrs. Ashwood-- but tell me where is my son? |
41646 | ''Do not, Emmeline-- do not, I conjure you, refuse me this favour?'' |
41646 | ''Do you know whether they have ever corresponded?'' |
41646 | ''Do you know,''said the Chevalier, addressing himself to Emmeline,''that I have had some trouble, my fair friend, to find you?'' |
41646 | ''Do you suspect that he wavers then?'' |
41646 | ''Do you then hope, Sir,''said Emmeline,''that I shall patiently become the victim of your rashness? |
41646 | ''Do you think I can assist you home?'' |
41646 | ''Do you think she is a French woman?'' |
41646 | ''Do you,''reassumed Mrs. Stafford--''do you not recollect the voice?'' |
41646 | ''Does Miss Mowbray go with my sister?'' |
41646 | ''Engagements with Mr. Maloney, my Lord? |
41646 | ''For London, my Lord?'' |
41646 | ''For impertinence?'' |
41646 | ''For mercy''s sake tell me,''Godolphin, as he took the cold and trembling hands of Emmeline in his--''for mercy''s sake tell me what all this means? |
41646 | ''For what purpose?'' |
41646 | ''Has Adelina had any previous knowledge of the proposals Fitz- Edward intends to make?'' |
41646 | ''Has my Lord, Sir,''said Emmeline to Delamere,--''has my Lord Montreville been so good as to honour me with any commands?'' |
41646 | ''Has she not written to you?'' |
41646 | ''Has, then, any thing happened?'' |
41646 | ''Have I deserved to be your uncle? |
41646 | ''Have I then found you, my lovely cousin?'' |
41646 | ''Have you cleaned and loaded my pistols?'' |
41646 | ''Have you found-- Delamere?'' |
41646 | ''Have you seen Mr. Delamere, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''Have you then a portrait of Adelina,''enquired Lady Clancarryl,''and have not yet shewn it me?'' |
41646 | ''Have you, in one little week,''said the faultering Emmeline,''occasion to ask that question?'' |
41646 | ''He is dead then?'' |
41646 | ''How can I refuse him?'' |
41646 | ''How can I, dearest Madam-- how can I, with any propriety, go where Lord Delamere is? |
41646 | ''How do you, Madam?'' |
41646 | ''How is Adelina, my dearest Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | ''How is the young lady you was so good as to assist on shore, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''I do promise then,''said he,''to take you to Mrs. Stafford''s; but''----''But what?'' |
41646 | ''I enquired after the unhappy Trelawny? |
41646 | ''I hope not,''answered Emmeline, without knowing what she said--''Surely you do not mean it?'' |
41646 | ''I hope, however, you, my Lord, have had no dispute on my account with the Marquis?'' |
41646 | ''I should be glad to know( if it were worth my while to enquire) what business Bellozane has with_ her_?'' |
41646 | ''Impossible!--Surely you can not have made such a resolution?'' |
41646 | ''Is he not in London then?--is he not married?'' |
41646 | ''Is he not one of the best creatures in the world?'' |
41646 | ''Is it not possible to listen?'' |
41646 | ''Is it not remarkable,''said Mrs. Stafford,''that you should voluntarily have conducted us to France, and by chance escort us home?'' |
41646 | ''Is it then probable any one can forget her? |
41646 | ''Is my Lord or Mr. Delamere arrived?'' |
41646 | ''Is she a young lady?'' |
41646 | ''It snows too much,''said he,''for a comfortable conference, unless you will give me leave to sit by you; where are you going to?'' |
41646 | ''Let him-- Of what consequence is it to us what such a puppy thinks? |
41646 | ''Let me then, thus encouraged, go farther-- and ask if I have a place in your esteem?'' |
41646 | ''Lord Delamere is, I conclude, much better?'' |
41646 | ''Lord, Miss,''cried the servant,''did you ring? |
41646 | ''Loveliest Miss Mowbray, how thoughtlessly have I alarmed you!--Can you forgive me?'' |
41646 | ''Merciful Heaven, what can be done? |
41646 | ''Miss Mowbray is fatigued with her voyage,''said he, tenderly approaching her--''The night air I am afraid has affected her health?'' |
41646 | ''My dear boy here?'' |
41646 | ''My-- love to them both, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''No death, I hope?'' |
41646 | ''No message-- no letter-- not one kind word,''said he, gently detaining her,''to poor Adelina? |
41646 | ''No, no, child,''said her mother,''I shall not send you, indeed-- but Crofts, do you think we should be able to make it out?'' |
41646 | ''No-- what was there remarkable about it?'' |
41646 | ''No-- why do you ask?'' |
41646 | ''Not part with it? |
41646 | ''Of what nature is it?'' |
41646 | ''Of which nation is she, Le Limosin?'' |
41646 | ''Of whose death, dear Madam?'' |
41646 | ''Oh, yes,''said he,''I saw them all at Paris, and asked them if they had any commands to you? |
41646 | ''Oh, your name is Mounseer, is it?'' |
41646 | ''Only-- are you known at Bath?'' |
41646 | ''Pray who is Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | ''Pray, Sir,''said the bar maid to Elkerton,''who is that young gentleman?'' |
41646 | ''Pray, do you know where he now is?'' |
41646 | ''Shall I answer for Lord Montreville,''said a voice behind them,''as his immediate representative?'' |
41646 | ''Shall I bring up a gentleman to see you who I am assured is able in his profession? |
41646 | ''Shall I send one of the carriages for her?'' |
41646 | ''Shall I speak to him?'' |
41646 | ''Shall I take him from you, Ma''am?'' |
41646 | ''Shall we then see Lady Adelina in town?'' |
41646 | ''Shall you return again to London, Sir, before you proceed into Hampshire?'' |
41646 | ''Should I take Master, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''Sir, I hope you, and my Lord and Lady Montreville, have been well since I had last the honour of seeing you?'' |
41646 | ''Sir,''said he,''have you seen Miss Mowbray to- day?'' |
41646 | ''Steady!--Has your Lordship forgotten Miss Otley?'' |
41646 | ''Stupid dog!--why should you care whether you meet him or no?'' |
41646 | ''Surely he will not attempt it?'' |
41646 | ''Surely,''cried Emmeline, alarmed,''you have heard nothing unpleasant from France?'' |
41646 | ''Surely,''said he,''surely she knows I am here?'' |
41646 | ''Tell me, Emmeline, have I really only dreamed, or was a stranger here yesterday? |
41646 | ''Tell me, Miss Mowbray-- will she after a proper time refuse, do you think, her consent to see me? |
41646 | ''Tell me, colonel, what ought I to do?'' |
41646 | ''Tell me, first, whether your journey remains fixed for Thursday?--whether you still hold your generous resolution of going to Adelina?'' |
41646 | ''Tell me,''said she,''before I die with terror-- tell me with what intention you come to- morrow?'' |
41646 | ''That he has a fortunate rival?'' |
41646 | ''Then you know, perhaps----But you are undoubtedly well acquainted with Colonel Fitz- Edward?'' |
41646 | ''To drive him to despair? |
41646 | ''To her father, puppy?'' |
41646 | ''To his family?'' |
41646 | ''To his fortune?'' |
41646 | ''To kill you?'' |
41646 | ''Was you even then thus indifferent? |
41646 | ''Well, my Lord,''continued she, addressing herself to her husband,''what do you intend to do about this unhappy, infatuated boy?'' |
41646 | ''Were it not best to enquire after her?'' |
41646 | ''Were not all preparations for your marriage in great forwardness, Sir, when you left England? |
41646 | ''What answer do you mean to give it? |
41646 | ''What can I do with her?'' |
41646 | ''What can I refuse you?'' |
41646 | ''What can be the meaning of this?'' |
41646 | ''What designs, Lord Delamere?'' |
41646 | ''What disturbs Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | ''What does she say, Fanny?'' |
41646 | ''What information, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''What is it?'' |
41646 | ''What is that, my Lord?'' |
41646 | ''What say_ your_ letters from England, my fairest cousin?'' |
41646 | ''What then does she do?'' |
41646 | ''What then?'' |
41646 | ''What will you say, my dear Adelina, if I bring you the best news you can possibly hear?'' |
41646 | ''What would you have me do? |
41646 | ''What would you have me do?'' |
41646 | ''What, Sir, can I say?'' |
41646 | ''What, brother?--what are you speaking of?'' |
41646 | ''What?'' |
41646 | ''Whatever it is Sir,''said his Lordship impatiently,''let me hear it at once.--Is it a dismission from my office?'' |
41646 | ''When was he expected?'' |
41646 | ''When?'' |
41646 | ''Whence is it,''said she, after a pause of some moments, that I see you here? |
41646 | ''Whence then, these tears?'' |
41646 | ''Where does she live?'' |
41646 | ''Where have I on earth such a friend but in my Emmeline? |
41646 | ''Where is he then?'' |
41646 | ''Where is she?'' |
41646 | ''Where is she?'' |
41646 | ''Where, then, is he?'' |
41646 | ''Who is so good as to recollect me?'' |
41646 | ''Who is this young person, Sir?'' |
41646 | ''Who told you I have done so-- Godolphin?'' |
41646 | ''Who, my Lord?'' |
41646 | ''Whose sweet little boy are you, my love?'' |
41646 | ''Why distress yourself in this manner, Miss Mowbray? |
41646 | ''Why do_ you_ not speak to him, Emmeline?'' |
41646 | ''Why does Mr. Delamere certainly return in March?'' |
41646 | ''Why should I be unhappy? |
41646 | ''Why so, pray?'' |
41646 | ''Why stop?'' |
41646 | ''Why then do you not quit it?'' |
41646 | ''Why this terror? |
41646 | ''Why will he not come in, then?'' |
41646 | ''Why, my dear Emmeline, how is this? |
41646 | ''Why, my dear Miss Mowbray, do you suffer this man''s folly to affect you? |
41646 | ''Why, where in the world can she be?'' |
41646 | ''Will it content you if I promise you_ not_ to write to Lord Montreville, nor to cause him to be written to; and to see you again?'' |
41646 | ''Will you dine with us, Delamere?'' |
41646 | ''Will you do me the honour to peruse them, my Lord?'' |
41646 | ''With whom?'' |
41646 | ''Would you go then,''answered Mrs. Stafford,''to confirm her fears and to drive her to deeper desperation? |
41646 | ''Yes; and wherefore are you terrified?'' |
41646 | ''Yet one thing, Captain Godolphin, allow me to entreat of you?'' |
41646 | ''You are acquainted, Sir, with a lady of the name of Ashwood, who lives at Clapham?'' |
41646 | ''You are ill, Emmeline?'' |
41646 | ''You dread it!--and why dread it?'' |
41646 | ''You have heard no unfavourable news, I hope, of Lady Adelina or your little boy?'' |
41646 | ''You have not, then, been with her?'' |
41646 | ''You intend then,''said James Crofts, unable entirely to conceal his chagrin--''you intend to begin a suit with my Lord Montreville?'' |
41646 | ''You promise me then?'' |
41646 | ''You then positively reject the overtures of Maloney?'' |
41646 | ''_ Comment? |
41646 | ''_ If_ it ever takes place at all?'' |
41646 | ( advancing towards her)''is it thus you fulfil the promise you gave me? |
41646 | A man''s voice asked who it was? |
41646 | A smartish piece of goods upon my word for Pembrokeshire; quite a London lady, eh, Miss?'' |
41646 | After a long pause, Emmeline, in faultering accents, asked''if the situation of Lord Delamere was absolutely desperate?'' |
41646 | After remaining a few moments, she came out again, and asked Mrs. Stafford if she wanted the woman of the house? |
41646 | After the separation which has now so decidedly and irrevocably taken place between us, shall I intrude again on his Lordship''s sight? |
41646 | Alpin?'' |
41646 | Alpin?] |
41646 | And are not they enough? |
41646 | And do you suppose I mean to sacrifice the happiness of my whole life to the narrow policy or selfish ambition of my father?'' |
41646 | And if Mr. Godolphin refuses----''''What, if he refuses?'' |
41646 | And in that event how was she herself to act? |
41646 | And is it thus you intend to atone for all the insults of your family which you have so repeatedly protested you would never forgive? |
41646 | And to what could such an extraordinary change be owing, if not to his attachment to Emmeline Mowbray? |
41646 | And will she refuse to come to me? |
41646 | And you, Mr. Delamere-- do you still obstinately persist in this ridiculous, this unworthy attachment?'' |
41646 | Are you not now nearly as independant as you will be then?'' |
41646 | Ask her whether she can divest herself of all regard for me? |
41646 | At dinner, Delamere enquired''whether his charming cousin was always to remain a prisoner in her own room?'' |
41646 | At length Fitz- Edward stopped, and said--''At what hour to- morrow, Sir, may I have the honour of some conversation with you?'' |
41646 | Avarice asked whether he could depend on modesty, reserve, and a retired turn, in a girl not yet eighteen? |
41646 | Besides, my sweet coz, pray consider a moment, what else can you do? |
41646 | But avarice enquired how he could offer to marry a woman without a shilling? |
41646 | But how could she determine to become an inmate at the house of Godolphin, even tho''he was himself to be absent from it? |
41646 | But how happens it that he knew not, Sir, of your return? |
41646 | But if you continue to harden your heart against me, of what advantage will it be to them? |
41646 | But if you please I will enquire of him?'' |
41646 | But pray what relation to them can this Miss Mowbray be?'' |
41646 | But pray where is she?'' |
41646 | But prithee, my old friend, is this young lady your ward?'' |
41646 | But tell me, Emmeline, do you think if I apply to Lord Montreville he will allow you to pass some time with me?'' |
41646 | But tell me,''continued he,''what I am to say to poor Maloney?'' |
41646 | But to what do we owe the happiness of seeing you here, when we thought you on the point of sailing for France by another route?'' |
41646 | But what is all this to the purpose? |
41646 | But what is it to me? |
41646 | But what shall we do with Adelina?'' |
41646 | But what would you receive in the widow of Trelawny? |
41646 | But when he found he could not avoid him, he turned fiercely towards him--''Why do you follow me, Sir? |
41646 | But whence comes it that I find you, Madam, here? |
41646 | But wherefore that air of defiance which Mr. Fitz- Edward thought it necessary to assume? |
41646 | But who is it? |
41646 | But why did you indulge her in this melancholy taste?'' |
41646 | But will he not carry it too far, if now that his sister is released from her detested marriage he still persists in dividing us?'' |
41646 | But, but''added he, as if recollecting himself,''may I not apply for information on that head to her physician?'' |
41646 | Can you quit at pleasure the affluent and high- born heiress as you quitted the deserted and solitary orphan?'' |
41646 | Can you yourself be happy under such circumstances? |
41646 | Can your Lordship again fly from your promises? |
41646 | Colonel Fitz- Edward, would it not be better for you now to leave us?'' |
41646 | Could she go where he was, and conceal her partiality? |
41646 | Could you hereafter have any dependance on one, who holds her integrity so lightly? |
41646 | Crofts, my Lord; Mr. Crofts is, I find, married--''''To_ my_ daughter, Sir Richard.--Is it not so?'' |
41646 | Crofts? |
41646 | Delamere is here, Madam, and begs to know whether he may see you?'' |
41646 | Delamere is your near relation?'' |
41646 | Delamere, very much alarmed at her altered looks, anxiously enquired the cause? |
41646 | Delamere?'' |
41646 | Delamere?'' |
41646 | Delamere?'' |
41646 | Delamere?--what of my son?'' |
41646 | Did I not come hither on the assurance you gave me that you would long be detained in or near London by the business of your sister?'' |
41646 | Did he not abandon me to my destiny? |
41646 | Do me the favour to say from whom you apprehend she may receive such treatment?'' |
41646 | Do n''t you think he was, Bellozane?'' |
41646 | Do n''t you think so, George?'' |
41646 | Do you design to kill me?'' |
41646 | Do you know all? |
41646 | Do you think that a rebellious and unfeeling son is likely to make a good husband, a good father?'' |
41646 | Does not the same blood run in our veins? |
41646 | Emmeline flew to the stairs--''Is it Lord Delamere?'' |
41646 | Emmeline soon satisfied Lady Adelina on that head, who then asked when she heard of Delamere? |
41646 | Emmeline, white and faint, leaned on Godolphin--''Where is he, where is my brother?'' |
41646 | Fitz- Edward gone to France?'' |
41646 | Fitz- Edward,''cried Godolphin,''will you walk with me into another room?'' |
41646 | Forgive, Sir, if I ask what particular circumstance has been the cause of the uneasiness under which she appears to labour? |
41646 | Give me a moment''s time to consider; if indeed the young lady could''--''What, Sir? |
41646 | God!--but what?'' |
41646 | Godolphin too!--whither would Godolphin go? |
41646 | Godolphin, is it not?'' |
41646 | Godolphin, with a countenance paler than death, caught her in his arms--''Whither would you go?'' |
41646 | Godolphin?'' |
41646 | Godolphin?'' |
41646 | Had I no place in your heart, Madam, when you would have given me your hand?'' |
41646 | Had you not better quit us?'' |
41646 | Has she proper advice?'' |
41646 | Have I offended beyond all hopes of pardon?'' |
41646 | Have I taken any medicine that has confused my head, or how happens it that I appear to have been in a long and most uneasy dream? |
41646 | Have you no salts? |
41646 | Have you nothing to give her?'' |
41646 | He blushed deeply, and his voice faultering with anxiety, he cried--''What?--who, Sir?--a young lady?--what young lady?'' |
41646 | He checked his horse, and said, somewhat sternly,''So, Sir, where have you been?'' |
41646 | He has only a fever?'' |
41646 | He read them twice over in silence; then looking with astonishment at Emmeline, he asked her from whence she had these papers? |
41646 | He started up, and said fiercely to Crofts--''Well, Sir!--have you any commands here?'' |
41646 | He then asked her,''whether, if the consent of Lord and Lady Montreville could be obtained, she would continue averse to him?'' |
41646 | He then left the room, desiring Emmeline to comfort and compose his sister, who soon afterwards asked hastily what was become of him? |
41646 | He therefore asked Lady Montreville, whether she really wished to see Miss Mowbray, and when? |
41646 | His Lordship, ever anxious for his son, gazed eagerly at it while Fitz- Edward read it; and trembling, asked from whom it came? |
41646 | How could Emmeline account for one without revealing the other? |
41646 | How long has she been gone?'' |
41646 | How_ could_ you be so cruel, so inconsiderate?'' |
41646 | I asked what was the matter? |
41646 | I can not imagine, my Lord, what you have been saying to her?'' |
41646 | I hope the person who now fills her place has supplied it to your satisfaction?'' |
41646 | I spoke to the man, and asked him from whence he brought it? |
41646 | I was told you were alone: may I beg the favour of a few minutes conversation?'' |
41646 | If you do not marry this rich city- man, what do you think is to become of you?'' |
41646 | In this distress( the first she had ever known) how should she act? |
41646 | Is he not a perfect character?'' |
41646 | Is he not at your Lordship''s house?'' |
41646 | Is it not enough that you have broken through the ties of honour and friendship in betraying me to my father? |
41646 | Is it possible?'' |
41646 | Is my sister, Lady Westhaven, to be present at the ceremony?'' |
41646 | Is my sister, my poor Adelina dead?'' |
41646 | Is she not now at liberty? |
41646 | Is she not worthy, from her personal merit, of a throne if I had a throne to offer her? |
41646 | Is she then out of danger? |
41646 | Is this the protection you have so often told me I should find from you? |
41646 | Is this the respect you have sworn ever to observe towards me? |
41646 | Lady Montreville observed him, and then said--''Surely, Frederic, you are not well?'' |
41646 | Lady Montreville, you hear what your son engages for; do you agree to the terms?" |
41646 | Lady Westhaven, your''s are, I presume, from Berkley- square?'' |
41646 | Madam,''cried the woman,''what is the matter with the young gentleman?'' |
41646 | May I ask her name?'' |
41646 | May I ask, are you quite determined?'' |
41646 | May I dare enquire whether she is yet to be moved in my favour?'' |
41646 | Milor Mowbray?_''''_ Oui Milor-- regardez s''il vous plait. |
41646 | Milor croit''il qu''on peut subsister dans cette espece d''enfer? |
41646 | Miss Mowbray; such a lad as that is but an indifferent guardian; pray where does his father live?'' |
41646 | Mrs. Stafford gave him her hand, saying--''Have you then forgotten your friends?'' |
41646 | Mrs. Stafford gave it to her, saying--''From France, by the post mark?'' |
41646 | My dear brother, do you then pardon and pity the poor Adelina?'' |
41646 | My poor sister-- my unhappy, devoted Adelina!--have I then found you only to destroy you? |
41646 | Nothing to your little_ protegà ©_?'' |
41646 | Of what else, indeed, could she speak, in a solitude where his goodness made all her consolation and his conversation all her pleasure? |
41646 | Ought I then to repine? |
41646 | Our little boy-- do you not long to embrace him? |
41646 | Pray Sir, does Lady Montreville know of this marriage?'' |
41646 | Pray how d''ye like our new housekeeper? |
41646 | Pray how does he do?'' |
41646 | Pray what amends can you ever hope to make to my Lord, and me, for the trouble you have been the cause of?'' |
41646 | Pray what was your master''s name?'' |
41646 | Prithee, dear boy, whither are you going?--perhaps we are travelling the same road?'' |
41646 | Shall I tell you what he has said to me? |
41646 | Shall we go towards home?'' |
41646 | She answered his enquiries-- and then desired to hear what news Sir Richard or his other correspondents had sent him? |
41646 | She asked herself, however, whether it was possible to be insensible of the merit of Godolphin? |
41646 | She determined then to open the window and speak to him: yet if it should not be Fitz- Edward? |
41646 | She observed it; and asked if they knew him? |
41646 | She seemed happy to see them; and desiring her to sit down by the bed side, said--''Tell me truly what has happened? |
41646 | She sighed deeply; and seeing the doctor still sitting by her, she asked if he would still perform his promise, and let her see her son? |
41646 | She then enquired why he had concealed himself from his father, and where he had been? |
41646 | She then returned to the parlour, and very reluctantly delivered the answer to Mr. Delamere; who asked if Emmeline was really ill? |
41646 | Since you can form no decided objection; since you have undoubtedly allowed me to hope; why do you thus cruelly prolong my sufferings? |
41646 | Sir,''cried he at length,''what would you have me do?'' |
41646 | Sir,''exclaimed Emmeline,''why will you thus persist in distressing me? |
41646 | So here you are? |
41646 | Somebody opened the door.--But there was no light; and Emmeline retiring a step from it, the person again asked who it was? |
41646 | Stafford?'' |
41646 | Such complicated and incurable misery must overwhelm me, and then-- what will become of my children?'' |
41646 | Suddenly, however, awakening from his reverie, he said--''Does your Lordship think Miss Mowbray_ ought_ to go to meet Lord Delamere?'' |
41646 | Suppose we go together, if your destination is the Winchester road?'' |
41646 | Surely he could never assert that I have ever formed engagements with him?'' |
41646 | Surely it can not be Miss Mowbray, that allows me such happiness?'' |
41646 | Surely you do not, you can not mean finally to refuse and desert me, after having permitted me so long to speak to you of my passion?'' |
41646 | Tell me then, dearest and loveliest Emmeline, may I venture to hope that tender bosom is not wholly insensible? |
41646 | Tell me, I conjure you tell me, what you have met with, and to what is owing the extraordinary appearance of Mr. Fitz- Edward here?'' |
41646 | Tell me, does this picture resemble him?'' |
41646 | Tell me, how is your sister Augusta?'' |
41646 | Tell me, how long in that month may Adelina direct to Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | Tell me, madam-- what do you wish Mr. Delamere to say?" |
41646 | Tell me-- could you ever be reconciled to yourself if you should be the cause of a catastrophe equally fatal?'' |
41646 | The fiery Frenchman recovering his footing, turned fiercely to Delamere, and asked, in French, what he meant? |
41646 | The man stopped, and asked if she wanted a coach? |
41646 | Then addressing herself to her, she said--''Lady Adelina, are you better?'' |
41646 | This then is what I have to propose-- You are acquainted with Mr. Rochely, the great banker?'' |
41646 | To the question, from the maid,''how she did?'' |
41646 | To this he again repeated, that his opinions he would correct; his residence should be settled by herself.--''Had she any objection to his person?'' |
41646 | To whom can I then appeal? |
41646 | Torn-- torn for ever from this outraged heart-- never, never shall this sight blast me again!--But what?'' |
41646 | Watkins?'' |
41646 | What am I to fear? |
41646 | What am I to suppose?'' |
41646 | What can I do?'' |
41646 | What excess of madness and folly has tempted you to violate the retirement of Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | What has he been saying to you?'' |
41646 | What should Emmeline now do? |
41646 | What you was coy? |
41646 | What? |
41646 | When did she go? |
41646 | When they were alone, he conjured Mr. Lawson to tell him what he thought of the lady? |
41646 | Where is Delamere?'' |
41646 | Where is Delamere?'' |
41646 | Where is he now?'' |
41646 | Wherefore traverse the garden of a night, and suffer appearances to be so much against you, and what is yet worse, against Lady Adelina?'' |
41646 | While he was indulging these sanguine and delicious hopes, he heard a bell ring, and flew to enquire if it was that of Emmeline? |
41646 | Why do you think so?'' |
41646 | Why not stay at least to see the event?'' |
41646 | Why should I deceive you? |
41646 | Why should the Chevalier de Bellozane stay here?'' |
41646 | Why should your Lordship now suppose me guilty of it? |
41646 | Will my Emmeline, generous and gentle as she is to others, be inexorable only to him? |
41646 | Will no penitence, no sufferings obtain your pity?'' |
41646 | Will you assure me you will not seek it?'' |
41646 | Will you dine with me?'' |
41646 | Will you hear me with patience, and even with pity?'' |
41646 | Will you refuse once more to bless and relieve, by your presence, my unhappy sister?'' |
41646 | William!--and are_ you_ grown cruel? |
41646 | Would you please I should call him?'' |
41646 | Yet could she submit to the appearance of seeking a man who had so lately renounced her for ever, with coldness, contempt, and insult? |
41646 | Yet if you suffer me to believe my attachment not disagreeable to you, how shall I wholly conceal it? |
41646 | You are a clever fellow; can not you contrive for us a private meeting?] |
41646 | You certainly would not wish to stay here? |
41646 | You go then?'' |
41646 | You know, I suppose, how very ill she is; how much worse''tis feared she may be?'' |
41646 | You remember him, to be sure?'' |
41646 | You will not, then, leave me?--You will see my poor brother?'' |
41646 | You, on whom I depended for pity and protection?'' |
41646 | Your father''s memorandum says that he had forwarded a duplicate of it to Francis Williamson; do you know whether that person is yet living?'' |
41646 | [ Footnote 13: Why not stay there?] |
41646 | [ Footnote 20: Your name?] |
41646 | [ Footnote 6: How? |
41646 | [ Footnote 8: Do you speak English, my friend?] |
41646 | and have you no blood to answer for, on my account? |
41646 | and having reason to believe you have yourself formed those that are very different?'' |
41646 | and is that all the praise you allow to such a man? |
41646 | and must not your consent have been previously obtained before Lord Montreville would have made them? |
41646 | and not yet enchained by that villainous fellow Hymen? |
41646 | and said,''Would you have her sit down, Madam?'' |
41646 | and shall I suffer any other consideration to come in competition with your peace?'' |
41646 | and should you not with great reason suspect that with her, falsehood and deception might become habitual?'' |
41646 | and solicit a return of that regard with which I most sincerely wish he had forborne to honour me?'' |
41646 | and what is there so extraordinary in that? |
41646 | and what would become of my dear little boy?'' |
41646 | answered he familiarly,''what are you the lady''s Cicisbeo? |
41646 | answered he,''since you refuse to hear me?'' |
41646 | answered she--''Aye, I thought so-- What would you please to have, Mounseer?'' |
41646 | are you ill?--have I then terrified and alarmed you? |
41646 | are you then well acquainted with the English?] |
41646 | ask her whether she can condemn me to eternal regret and despair?'' |
41646 | asked Mrs. Stafford,''or are you disposed to hear more poetry? |
41646 | by what right do you insult and detain me?'' |
41646 | can I not speak to you, but in the presence of a third person?'' |
41646 | can tranquil nature give_ me_ rest, Or scenes of beauty, soothe me to repose? |
41646 | can you, Emmeline, persist in such cruelty?'' |
41646 | comment?_''answered his Lordship--''_comment? |
41646 | comment?_''answered his Lordship--''_comment? |
41646 | continued he, speaking with more quickness,''what? |
41646 | continued he, with looks that encreased her confusion--''what obligation does not our little boy-- do we not all owe you?'' |
41646 | cried Delamere, unable to express his anxiety--''at Woodfield!--And what does he say of Woodfield?'' |
41646 | cried Godolphin, turning angrily towards him--''Do you come hither to tell me your crimes, or to triumph in their consequence?'' |
41646 | cried Lord Montreville, hastily interrupting him.--''Is Delamere married?'' |
41646 | cried he, hastily interrupting her--''Speak, Madam-- is it not so?'' |
41646 | cried he--''You allow me, then, to hope?'' |
41646 | cried she, disengaging herself from his support--''how came you here, and from whence?'' |
41646 | cried she, trying to rise,''what shall I say to Lady Westhaven?--How disclose to her such intelligence as this?'' |
41646 | did he leave me nothing-- not even his forgiveness?'' |
41646 | did he not plunge headlong into follies from which he resented even an effort to save him? |
41646 | did he not wish to see his misjudging father? |
41646 | did not he tell me, I know not what, of my Lord Westhaven? |
41646 | eagerly answered Delamere,''you have been crying-- who was the person who called on you yesterday?'' |
41646 | exclaimed Emmeline; trembling,''am I to meet my uncle on Monday on this business?'' |
41646 | exclaimed Godolphin in a transport--''Is then the safety of Godolphin so dear to that angelic bosom?'' |
41646 | exclaimed Godolphin,''what can have made her talk in this manner?'' |
41646 | exclaimed Lady Westhaven,''what will become of him when he hears this?'' |
41646 | exclaimed he, breaking suddenly from his discourse and rising--''Good God, what can I do?'' |
41646 | exclaimed he--''Is it indeed Miss Mowbray?'' |
41646 | exclaimed his mother--''Why then do you not go to bed?'' |
41646 | exclaimed the officious landlady,''what can you mean now by that? |
41646 | for of you I may ask and be forgiven-- has he seen his son?'' |
41646 | go for to refuse seeing such an handsome young man, who is a Lord, and the like of that? |
41646 | has a father no right to decide to whom he will entrust the happiness of his son, and the honour of his posterity? |
41646 | how appear as not_ daring_ to avow that, which is the glory and happiness of my life? |
41646 | how are you? |
41646 | impossible!--but is she really so very ill?'' |
41646 | it might have been worth preserving had I----But wherefore presume I to trouble you on a subject so hopeless? |
41646 | loudly exclaimed Lady Westhaven, with a dreadful shriek--''Who shall dare to announce these tidings to you?'' |
41646 | must you still persecute me with your insidious friendship?'' |
41646 | my Lord?'' |
41646 | my dear madam,''said she, sobbing,''what will now become of me? |
41646 | no!--Does not Lord Montreville depend upon my honour?--can I betray a trust reposed in me?'' |
41646 | no,''answered Rochely,''how came you to think she was?'' |
41646 | or carry her back by the same road, where it is probable he will meet me? |
41646 | or how does it happen that you have left my brother and sister, and the happy Delamere?'' |
41646 | or what was the family and what the fortune of the person who now occupied most of his time and a great portion of his thoughts? |
41646 | que voudriez vous avec vos pistolets?_''''Shoot_ you_ perhaps, you blockhead!'' |
41646 | repeated Emmeline--''has he a fever then?'' |
41646 | repeated Lady Adelina--''Does then any doubt remain of it?'' |
41646 | said Emmeline, with quickness;''for then,''continued she, hesitating and blushing,''what would poor Lady Adelina do? |
41646 | said he, addressing himself to Mrs. Stafford,''rather than with his mother?'' |
41646 | sly little prude-- who would think that you, who always seem so cold and so cruel, made an excuse only to stay at home to meet Fitz- Edward? |
41646 | tell me, if on that esteem I may presume to build those hopes which alone can give value to the rest of my life?'' |
41646 | tell me, then, where?--how?'' |
41646 | thought Emmeline,''what can have prevented his writing to me all this time?'' |
41646 | to be driven into the arms of Rochely? |
41646 | unfeeling!--am I then_ so_ worthless,_ so_ detestable in your eyes?'' |
41646 | vehemently continued the Chevalier--''what then, charming Emmeline, occasions this long reserve, this barbarous coldness? |
41646 | what am I to expect from a preface so cold and cruel? |
41646 | what is bodily health when the mind is ill at ease? |
41646 | what is it I am to know?'' |
41646 | what is it I hear?'' |
41646 | what is it you expect of me?'' |
41646 | what_ can_ be done? |
41646 | when I see him, and when he tells me that you are well; and that affluence, and with it, I hope, happiness will be your''s? |
41646 | when?--where?--how?'' |
41646 | where shall I find words to thank you as I ought?'' |
41646 | wherefore did you leave him? |
41646 | wherefore is it then that you look thus? |
41646 | wherefore should she refuse it? |
41646 | who is this?'' |
41646 | why are there such unhappy impediments to your being really so? |
41646 | why this haste?'' |
41646 | why would you come hither? |
41646 | why would you do this, Sir?'' |
41646 | will you not there hear me? |
41646 | will you still refuse to hear and to forgive me? |
41646 | will_ you_, my lovely friend, undertake to plead for me? |
41646 | would you strike him again? |
45623 | ''A what?" |
45623 | ''An estimate of the profits?" |
45623 | ''Are you a lunatic?" |
45623 | ''Are you an idiot? |
45623 | ''But how can they estimate the profits?" |
45623 | ''But what profits? |
45623 | ''But what will''Olotutu''be?" |
45623 | ''But who_ is_ going to manufacture''Olotutu''then?" |
45623 | ''Do you mean to say----?" |
45623 | ''Have what?" |
45623 | ''How? |
45623 | ''Oh, I see you will get the syndicate to do it?" |
45623 | ''Then you refuse half the profits?" |
45623 | ''What for?" |
45623 | ''And what would_ you_ do under this beautiful scheme?'' 45623 ''But look at the position you will be in?'' |
45623 | ''Can you wonder, then, that I was born with a congenital craving for springing mysteries upon the public? 45623 ''Does it give his address?'' |
45623 | ''Hang- ho: Out, Fu- sia, does your mother know you are? 45623 ''How dare you say that?'' |
45623 | ''How do you mean?'' 45623 ''How?'' |
45623 | ''Is n''t it wonderful the news should be in London before me?'' 45623 ''Is there need to prolong the story? |
45623 | ''Is this true?'' 45623 ''Oh, you would like me to, would you?'' |
45623 | ''That you may flee the country?'' 45623 ''Were you waiting for me?'' |
45623 | ''What for? 45623 ''What is it? |
45623 | ''What is the matter?'' 45623 ''What is this?'' |
45623 | ''What would be the good of that? 45623 ''What''s that?'' |
45623 | ''Where?'' 45623 ''Who is"dearest"?'' |
45623 | ''You will submit to being taken by the police?'' 45623 A memorial brass then?" |
45623 | A patent medicine, a tobacco, a soap, a mine, a comic paper, a beverage, a tooth- powder, a hair- restorer? |
45623 | A what? |
45623 | About my discovery in the algebra of love? |
45623 | Ah, have you heard of that? 45623 Ah, then you''re not a novelist yourself?" |
45623 | Ah, then, there is some regularity about the time of day at least? |
45623 | Algebra of love? |
45623 | An unhappy ending? |
45623 | And do you agree with him? |
45623 | And he has always this nervous air? |
45623 | And how do you know this is false sentiment? |
45623 | And if neither succeed? |
45623 | And must I talk to them? |
45623 | And must this be the end? |
45623 | And so she wishes to be an object lesson in female celibacy, does she? |
45623 | And so you did not dare marry the composer? |
45623 | And still you do not intend to marry? |
45623 | And then you will marry me? |
45623 | And vat vould you haf done in--_was sagt man_--in my shoes? |
45623 | And what became of Richard? |
45623 | And what did he do when he learnt it? |
45623 | And what have you heard of it? |
45623 | And what was in the note? |
45623 | And what will be the subscription? |
45623 | And what would you like me to be? |
45623 | And when is your lordship''s next book coming out? |
45623 | And where is the Old Maids''Club? |
45623 | And who elects her? |
45623 | And who put you into that position, I should like to know? |
45623 | And why not? |
45623 | And why not? |
45623 | And why? |
45623 | And you have decided to enroll in our ranks? |
45623 | And you have not been able to discover anything about him, though he has given it you in twelve? |
45623 | And you really love me? |
45623 | And you will give up your bad habits? |
45623 | Another love- song to Chloe? |
45623 | Any relation to the Mendozas of Highbury? |
45623 | Are there any Old Maids here? |
45623 | Are you a widow? |
45623 | Are you an English Sephardi or a native Sephardi? |
45623 | Are you sure_ you_ do? |
45623 | Are you, then, a painter or a musician? |
45623 | As a visitor? 45623 Ay, but what shall it be?" |
45623 | Because you are not what I should like you to be? |
45623 | But could you never learn to love me? |
45623 | But do you propose to accept Wee Winnie? |
45623 | But do you want to join us? |
45623 | But how can you be a member of the Junior Widows''? |
45623 | But how have you remembered him from year to year? |
45623 | But how shall I know the result? |
45623 | But how----? |
45623 | But how? |
45623 | But if you join us, had n''t you better go back to your maiden name? |
45623 | But is n''t the outside in need of renovation? |
45623 | But is n''t there any improvement that you would like? |
45623 | But is n''t there-- I mean there is-- such a thing obtainable as a dumb wife? |
45623 | But is there no hope for me? |
45623 | But is there no way of getting a wife with a gift of categorical conversation? |
45623 | But of course you_ have_ had your romance? |
45623 | But suppose we both succeed? |
45623 | But surely he wants the world to enjoy his work? |
45623 | But surely_ you_ have nothing to complain of in the way of loveliness? |
45623 | But what does that matter? 45623 But what is it you object to in me?" |
45623 | But what right have we to take away their lives? 45623 But what, I wonder, has caused this tide of applications?" |
45623 | But where are you going? 45623 But why should he exist at all?" |
45623 | But why take the words in their natural meaning? |
45623 | But would you have had me defy the probabilities? |
45623 | But would you, if you could? |
45623 | But you have n''t yet told me how it is done? |
45623 | But you love me a little, too? |
45623 | But you never lived in Tartary? |
45623 | But you will never believe that again, when I tell you mine? |
45623 | But you will not carry out your threat? 45623 But you would not love me more, if I were a great writer?" |
45623 | But, sir, how can we inaugurate a Club which has never had any members? |
45623 | By the way, you did not come across Mr. Fladpick in Tartary? |
45623 | By what right, sir,said Mr. Wilkins, who had been struggling with an attack of speechlessness,"do you persecute me like this? |
45623 | Can you doubt it? |
45623 | Can you give me a copy of the song? |
45623 | D- do you m- m- ean,asked Lord Arthur,"''how happy could I be with either, were t''other dear charmer away?''" |
45623 | Dead? |
45623 | Dearest? |
45623 | Diana? |
45623 | Did I hear aright? |
45623 | Did n''t they withdraw their custom from you instanter? |
45623 | Did n''t we lift you up into it on the point of our pens? |
45623 | Did you catch any Tartars? |
45623 | Did you ever really love that actress? |
45623 | Did you like the play? |
45623 | Did you see her? 45623 Do n''t you remember Wilkins, the_ Moon_-man that I was up in a balloon with? |
45623 | Do n''t you see I''m busy? |
45623 | Do you call that charity? |
45623 | Do you dare to say that you saw my poor father, who was righteousness itself, breaking his fast in a restaurant on the Day of Atonement? 45623 Do you mean here-- this afternoon?" |
45623 | Do you mean to say,he said at last,"that because you love a man, he ca n''t love you?" |
45623 | Do you not feel the perfect pathos of those two lines, the infiniteness of incisive significance? 45623 Do you not see it is impossible? |
45623 | Do you see anything strange in my appearance? |
45623 | Do you see anything, Princess? |
45623 | Do you see anything, Princess? |
45623 | Do you suppose the syndicate will have any capital? 45623 Do you think so? |
45623 | Do you too hold that false theory that womanliness consists in childishness? |
45623 | Does he always come on the same date? |
45623 | Does he always slink out if anybody sits down opposite to him? |
45623 | Does n''t it want anything done to it? |
45623 | Eh? 45623 Figure you to yourself that I speak at the foot of the letter? |
45623 | Flirt? |
45623 | Frank, is this true? |
45623 | Good gracious, father, have n''t you gone? |
45623 | Has he been dead long? |
45623 | Have I the pleasure of speaking to Miss Dulcimer? |
45623 | Have I the pleasure of speaking to Miss Dulcimer? |
45623 | Have they given good reasons for their refusal to marry their lovers? |
45623 | Have you it with you? |
45623 | Have you never been to a circus? 45623 Have you no faith and trust in me?" |
45623 | Have you nothing better than this to say to me, after I have shown you my inmost soul? |
45623 | Have you read Mr. Gladstone''s latest? |
45623 | Have you seen it, Lord Silverdale? |
45623 | How about a reredos? |
45623 | How are you, everybody? 45623 How can anybody write as well as yourself? |
45623 | How can you talk so irreligiously? 45623 How could I? |
45623 | How did you know that? |
45623 | How do you climb? |
45623 | How do you expect me to amuse myself in the library? |
45623 | How do you expect me to bother about details? 45623 How do you know?" |
45623 | How do you mean? |
45623 | How long ago was it? |
45623 | How many will you be? |
45623 | How should I know it? |
45623 | How so? |
45623 | How so? |
45623 | How so? |
45623 | How then? |
45623 | How? 45623 How_ do_ you get it?" |
45623 | I-- I am-- I-- that is to say, Fladpick-- oh how can I explain what I mean? |
45623 | I-- I----? |
45623 | If I told you, you would try to become it? |
45623 | If you have n''t read it, why should you abuse it? |
45623 | If you know, why should I tell you? |
45623 | In a restaurant? |
45623 | In bad taste, is it? |
45623 | Indeed? 45623 Indeed? |
45623 | Indeed? |
45623 | Is he as careful to conceal his body as his soul? |
45623 | Is he gone already? |
45623 | Is it not obvious? |
45623 | Is it not? |
45623 | Is it to join the Old Maids''Club that you have called? |
45623 | Is it true that your lordship has been converted to Catholicism? |
45623 | Is it worth while saying such commonplace things? |
45623 | Is it yours? |
45623 | Is n''t it rather_ vice versâ_? 45623 Is not that a place in nature to be vain of? |
45623 | Is she also beautiful? |
45623 | Is she really beautiful, et cetera? |
45623 | Is she? 45623 Is that a joke? |
45623 | Is there any way of finding out? |
45623 | Is there no way over the difficulty? |
45623 | Is there none on the church? |
45623 | Is this the time-- when I am busy feeling the pulse of the Bazaar? |
45623 | Is this the way all match- games are played? |
45623 | Is this woman going to be a success? |
45623 | It''s a lot of sentimental rot, is n''t it? 45623 Knocked you, old man, this time, eh?" |
45623 | Libel the dead? 45623 Lillie, what''s this I see in the_ Moon_ about Clorinda Bell joining your Club?" |
45623 | Mad-- when you love me? |
45623 | Madly in love with you? |
45623 | May I ask if that is to be the uniform of the Old Maids''Club? |
45623 | May I come in? |
45623 | May I send you in a hundred- weight of chocolate creams? |
45623 | Miscalculated them? |
45623 | Miss Sybil Hotspur? |
45623 | Miss Winifred Woodpecker? |
45623 | My dear Fanny, what in Heaven''s name is it? |
45623 | My father did n''t tell you? |
45623 | N- n- no, y- y- y- y----"What is it, Captain Athelstan? |
45623 | No, why John P. Smith? 45623 No,"he said;"has Mr. Gladstone ever a latest?" |
45623 | No-- what did you-- I mean you did think what? |
45623 | No? 45623 Not of any kind?" |
45623 | Oh, Frank, this is no cruel jest? |
45623 | Oh, by the way, have you seen anything of that-- that-- the man in the Ironed Mask, I think they call him? |
45623 | Oh, is there a leader? |
45623 | Oh, then you are of the school of Addiper? |
45623 | Oh, where did you spring from? |
45623 | Oh,_ warum_ was n''t the Club founded before I married? |
45623 | Once a year? |
45623 | Original composer? |
45623 | P- p- p- rincess what? |
45623 | Pretty well, thank you; how''s yourself? |
45623 | Rather taking an unfair rise out of your partner, is n''t it? |
45623 | Shall I have time? 45623 Shall I show him in?" |
45623 | Shall you be present at the trials? |
45623 | So_ this_ is your mother? |
45623 | Tell me what? |
45623 | That is all a heap of galimatias,replied the Parisienne with the flaming hair"If I kiss a man, I, surely he may call me Alice without demanding it? |
45623 | The English Shakespeare? 45623 The English Shakespeare?" |
45623 | The Princess''s compliments,he was told to say,"and how is it to- day?" |
45623 | The Sunday School Fund-- how is that? |
45623 | The rules will not allow it, will they, Miss Dulcimer? 45623 The song or the singing?" |
45623 | Then I did not hear aright before? |
45623 | Then how does your lordship account for the rumor? |
45623 | Then to- day is the first time he has behaved so strangely? |
45623 | Then what''s to be done? |
45623 | Then why do you neglect him? |
45623 | Then why do you say it? |
45623 | Then why does he object to me, when he does n''t object to anybody else? |
45623 | Then why give her two by contradicting it? |
45623 | Then why object to servants? |
45623 | Then you_ will_ marry him? |
45623 | Thinking of the little fishes-- or of the gods? |
45623 | This is not one of the cliques of the shrieking sisterhood? |
45623 | This is not one of your teasing jokes? |
45623 | This year? |
45623 | Too sweet for you? |
45623 | Was Ellaline the girl who has just gone? |
45623 | Well, Lillie,he said,"when are you going to give the_ soirée_ to celebrate the foundation of the Club? |
45623 | Well, but,put in Harry Robinson,"if none of us is to be the English Shakespeare, why should we give over the appointment to an outsider? |
45623 | Well, have you seen this Fanny Radowski? |
45623 | Well, what in the name of angels or devils is your objection then? |
45623 | Well, what is it you do n''t like? 45623 Well,"I said, unimpressed and uncomprehending,"and what of it?" |
45623 | Well? 45623 Well?" |
45623 | Were you ever really simple enough to suspect me of having a mother? |
45623 | What about that actress you are painting now? |
45623 | What are you telling me there? |
45623 | What book is that you are reading? |
45623 | What can I do for you? |
45623 | What do I think? |
45623 | What do you say, Lord Silverdale? |
45623 | What do you suggest then? |
45623 | What do you think of my stepmother? |
45623 | What do you want? |
45623 | What do_ you_ think? 45623 What does it matter now, dearest?" |
45623 | What does it matter? |
45623 | What have I to do with science? 45623 What have you been doing to yourself, Princess?" |
45623 | What is fame, reputation, weighed against love? 45623 What is it, dearest?" |
45623 | What is its name? |
45623 | What is that? |
45623 | What is that? |
45623 | What is the matter with the bells? |
45623 | What is the matter? |
45623 | What is the matter? |
45623 | What is the use of my trying the candidates if you''re going to admit the plucked? |
45623 | What is this woman''s name? |
45623 | What is your lordship''s opinion of the best fifty books for the working man''s library? |
45623 | What name? |
45623 | What of it? |
45623 | What question? |
45623 | What reply would you make to that, Miss Nimrod? |
45623 | What runs in the family? |
45623 | What''s my being married got to do with it? |
45623 | What''s that-- the belief of old maids that they''ll get married? |
45623 | What''s that? 45623 What''s that? |
45623 | What''s the matter? |
45623 | What''s the matter? |
45623 | What''s the piece like? |
45623 | What''s the time- limit? |
45623 | What''s this? |
45623 | What-- smoking? |
45623 | What_ are_ you talking about? 45623 When are you going to lend me your face?" |
45623 | When do you propose to be proposed to by him? |
45623 | When you have n''t read it? |
45623 | Where are we to get the capital from? |
45623 | Where is the Shakespearean quality? |
45623 | Where''s the harm? |
45623 | Where? |
45623 | Who is he? |
45623 | Why can you not explain what you mean? |
45623 | Why do I want to join you? |
45623 | Why do you call me Rainbow? |
45623 | Why have sunstroke in India? |
45623 | Why not a competition? |
45623 | Why not? 45623 Why not? |
45623 | Why not? 45623 Why not?" |
45623 | Why not? |
45623 | Why not? |
45623 | Why should I embrace a profession to which I feel no call? 45623 Why should you be afraid?" |
45623 | Why so? 45623 Why, are you a member of that? |
45623 | Why, are you allowed to have men? |
45623 | Why, did the hieroglyphists use to brag? |
45623 | Why, do you believe in a future state? |
45623 | Why, has he done anything strange before to- day? |
45623 | Why, have you any difficulty about getting enough? 45623 Why, is this the candidate you were telling me about?" |
45623 | Why, what is this, father? |
45623 | Why? 45623 Why? |
45623 | Why? |
45623 | Why? |
45623 | Why? |
45623 | Why? |
45623 | Why? |
45623 | Why? |
45623 | Why? |
45623 | Wilkins? 45623 Will all your Old Maids be young?" |
45623 | Will it be poetry or prose? |
45623 | Will you back your incredulity with a pair of gloves? |
45623 | With whom? |
45623 | Wo n''t you come and talk it over, whatever it is, another time? |
45623 | Would n''t you like a colored window to somebody? |
45623 | Would you have love a Burlesque? 45623 Yes or no?" |
45623 | Yes, but what am_ I_ to call you, dearest? |
45623 | Yes, but why does n''t he speak? |
45623 | Yes, have you read it? |
45623 | Yes, miss; who shall I say, miss? |
45623 | Yes, wo n''t it be awful fun? |
45623 | Yes, wo n''t it be fun to run her to earth? |
45623 | Yes-- do you think the Old Maids''is the only one in London? 45623 You are Fladpick?" |
45623 | You are not yourself married? |
45623 | You do n''t? |
45623 | You envy them? |
45623 | You got my letter, I suppose? |
45623 | You got my verses this morning, Rainbow mine? |
45623 | You know not his name even? |
45623 | You know one romance per head is our charge for admission? |
45623 | You mean the great dramatic critic''s? 45623 You suspect her, then, of being herself responsible for the statement that she was going to join the Club?" |
45623 | You thought what? |
45623 | You threaten? |
45623 | You want us to commit suicide together? |
45623 | You what? |
45623 | You will have a little refreshment before you go? |
45623 | You? |
45623 | _ He!_ What? |
45623 | _ Mine?_}"Dead heat,"I murmured, and fell back in a dead faint. |
45623 | _ Which?_"_ Leave you to guess_,answered the electric current. |
45623 | _ Wife?_} the two travellers exclaimed together. |
45623 | _ You_ are not a literary man? |
45623 | ''Ah, but where should I find a man of like mind, a man to whom leisure for the cultivation of his soul was the one great necessity of life?'' |
45623 | ''Am I really the only woman you ever loved?'' |
45623 | ''But how am I to take it?'' |
45623 | ''Can not you see that, as my future wife, you will also suffer?'' |
45623 | ''Goodness gracious, Silverplume,''I said,''is this the way you poets go on?''" |
45623 | ''How can you say that? |
45623 | ''How should you? |
45623 | ''W-- w-- here did you get that from?'' |
45623 | ''What can you do?'' |
45623 | ''What for?'' |
45623 | ''What is this?'' |
45623 | ''Why not rather keep a mistress? |
45623 | ''Why?'' |
45623 | ''Why_ must_ you keep a servant?'' |
45623 | ''Wo n''t you say"yes"and make me the happiest man alive? |
45623 | *****"Have you seen Patrick Boyle''s poem in the_ Playgoers''Review_?" |
45623 | A Cassandra at sea- trip and_ soirée_, Or Proserpina visiting earth? |
45623 | A good mortgage, perhaps?" |
45623 | After so decisive an avowal from the essence of candor, what remained to be said? |
45623 | Ah, what Harpy pursued her as quarry To strangle so mirth? |
45623 | Ah, why I call you"Rainbow,"sweet? |
45623 | Aloud she said:"Under the circumstances may I venture to ask you to see my mother at the house? |
45623 | Am I to risk ruining three- fourths of my life, in defiance of the unerring dogmas of the Doctrine of Chances? |
45623 | And am I to give up all this, merely because I love you?" |
45623 | And are you sure it is admiration?" |
45623 | And art thou-- here''s my last, if not my stiffest-- As good a bouncer as the hieroglyphist? |
45623 | And do n''t you see that, as I love him, the odds are that he does n''t love me?" |
45623 | And how about grub?" |
45623 | And now may I see your mother? |
45623 | And several people had known it all along, for what but fraternal interest had taken him so often to the_ Lymarket_? |
45623 | And so I sadly turn away: How_ can_ I love a clod of clay, Doomed to grow earthlier day by day? |
45623 | And so, Miss Woodpecker, you have thought about joining our institution for elevating female celibacy into a fine art?" |
45623 | And their owner, was she A Swinburnian Lady Dolores, Or a sprite from some shadowy sea? |
45623 | And was I to depart like the rest, doomed to cudgel my brains till they ached like caned schoolboys? |
45623 | And yet what are you but another Helmer? |
45623 | And yet what can be more evident than that the art of criticism was never in such a critical condition? |
45623 | And yet, was this to be the end of all that sweet idyllic interlude, a jarring note and then silence for evermore? |
45623 | And yet-- what was the meaning of that significant invitation:"_ We are waiting only for you?_""I thought you were a stranger,"he replied. |
45623 | And you still wish to cry off?" |
45623 | Anyhow I resolved to know what_ I_ had been summoned for? |
45623 | Are n''t there plenty of candidates without them? |
45623 | Are old maids a sacred subject?" |
45623 | Are the members of the Savage Club savages, of the Garrick Garricks, of the Supper Club suppers?" |
45623 | Are there any more candidates to- day?" |
45623 | Are they on view?" |
45623 | Are you going to poke and pry into the concerns of the very journalist? |
45623 | Are you sure it is love you feel, not admiration?" |
45623 | But about this appointment?" |
45623 | But are you sure you are willing to renounce all mankind because you find one man unsatisfactory?" |
45623 | But did anyone grumble? |
45623 | But do you really think you would be happy if you lost her?" |
45623 | But may I ask, Miss Nimrod, why you did not enrich the book with more sketches? |
45623 | But then according to the story she does n''t know he''s a Catholic?" |
45623 | But then would n''t it be the truth?" |
45623 | But was it too late? |
45623 | But were we created merely to gratify man''s vanity?" |
45623 | But what are these weighed against the cramping of her individuality? |
45623 | But what had I come to do in that galley? |
45623 | But what of Paul Horace?''" |
45623 | But what then?" |
45623 | But whom can we discover?" |
45623 | But why are you so concerned about my church?" |
45623 | But why not have told_ me_ that you were Fladpick?" |
45623 | CRITICUS IN STABULIS(?). |
45623 | Can you still disbelieve that I suffer from an hereditary tendency to advertise in the agony column? |
45623 | Come now, would you give up your genius, your reputation, just to marry me?" |
45623 | Could n''t you call again to- morrow?" |
45623 | Could n''t you lean against something else?" |
45623 | Damn it all, sir, is there to be nothing private? |
45623 | Dead? |
45623 | Did I, though you had just called me a modern Buddhist with the soul of an ancient Greek and the radiant fragrance of a Cingalese tea- planter? |
45623 | Did Robinson, though the edition was sold out the day after? |
45623 | Did n''t I tell you I had the story from her own mouth, though I have put it into Mendoza''s?" |
45623 | Did she not love John Beveridge? |
45623 | Did the stern Priesthood strive thy cult to smother, Or wast thou worshipped, like thy purring brother? |
45623 | Do many people give charity except to advertise themselves? |
45623 | Do n''t you know that a combination of maid and mother is the newest thing in actresses''wardrobes? |
45623 | Do n''t you see that there is a fortune in''Olotutu''?" |
45623 | Do n''t you think it would be unfair to him to take my vows without giving him a chance?" |
45623 | Do n''t you understand that Miss Bell was good enough to engage me as mother and travelling companion when you left me to starve? |
45623 | Do n''t you understand that your charm to me is your being just yourself-- your simple, honest, manly self? |
45623 | Do n''t you understand? |
45623 | Do we ever complain when you call us cataclysmic, creative, esemplastic, or even epicene? |
45623 | Do you expect him?" |
45623 | Do you know me so little as to consider me capable of flippancy? |
45623 | Do you know of any? |
45623 | Do you know that you could be prosecuted?'' |
45623 | Do you like it?" |
45623 | Do you mean to say there''s any bad taste about that?" |
45623 | Do you think I could peep at him from the wing?" |
45623 | Do you think I would hoax you thus-- to dash you to earth again?" |
45623 | Do you think there is still a danger of her marrying to get someone to advertise her?" |
45623 | Does n''t he ride or dance well?" |
45623 | Does she hope to achieve recognition by it, I wonder?" |
45623 | Does she long to be of service in the world?" |
45623 | Doth he frisk in glee In Aahlu, or lives he, transmigrated, The lower life Osiris did decree, Of fowl, or fly, or fish, or fox, or flea? |
45623 | Equally aghast and excited, Lillie wired back,"_ How?_"and prepaid the reply. |
45623 | Every now and again she asked,"Do you see anything, Princess?" |
45623 | For what but to forget the wiles and treacheries of women of the town had he buried himself here? |
45623 | Good looks? |
45623 | Great heavens, can it be?" |
45623 | Had I not still to discover for what end we were leagued together? |
45623 | Have you anything worthy of you in your pocket to- day?" |
45623 | Have you had a desirable proposal of marriage?" |
45623 | Have you heard anything to her disadvantage?" |
45623 | He comes not always on the same date of the month, but he comes, perhaps, on the same day of the week, eh?" |
45623 | He says:''Miss Leroux-- Alice; may I call you Alice?''" |
45623 | Her father? |
45623 | Ho, some brandy-- is it handy? |
45623 | How can I, the President of the Old Maid''s Club, be the first recreant?" |
45623 | How can we face Wee Winnie?" |
45623 | How can you say so? |
45623 | How could I now explain that it was her father who was the renegade, not I? |
45623 | How did even these know that what they saw_ was_ the Emperor? |
45623 | How does it run? |
45623 | How few persons actually saw the Emperor? |
45623 | How is it Boyle managed to crack up our plays without being driven to any of this new- fangled nonsense?" |
45623 | How is the old gentleman? |
45623 | How many girls do you suppose Silverdale has met in his varied career?" |
45623 | How stands the account with the new young womanhood? |
45623 | How was he to explain to this fair young thing that she loved nobody and could never hope to marry him? |
45623 | How?" |
45623 | How?" |
45623 | However, if Miss Woodpecker feels these fine ethical shades, wo n''t she be ineligible?" |
45623 | I asked Guy if he would have a chop with me at the club this evening, and what do you think? |
45623 | I become your sister by rejecting you, do I not?" |
45623 | I beg your pardon?" |
45623 | I forgot the sardines must be caught first, before they are tinned, must n''t they?" |
45623 | I had sundry valuables about my person, but then they included a loaded revolver, so why refuse the adventure? |
45623 | I presume you know all about Miss Dulcimer''s scheme?" |
45623 | I say, how will you get them to wear stuff gowns?" |
45623 | I went to him and I said:"How is the church?" |
45623 | I wonder,"he added irrelevantly,"why the number nine always goes with cats-- nine lives, nine tails, nine muses?" |
45623 | I wondered whether perhaps he could be teething-- or should I say, tusking? |
45623 | If this is so before marriage, what will it be after, when her opportunities of buttonholing me will be necessarily more frequent?" |
45623 | Is he too modest, too timid?" |
45623 | Is n''t he here?" |
45623 | Is n''t it awful? |
45623 | Is n''t it better to take the bull by the horns?" |
45623 | Is n''t one of the rules that candidates shall not believe in Women''s Rights? |
45623 | Is n''t that a lovely face?" |
45623 | Is that easier?" |
45623 | Is that the logic? |
45623 | Is that the_ Saturday Slasher_ you have there?'' |
45623 | Is there any entrance fee?" |
45623 | Is there anything in that passage in the least calculated to bring a blush to the cheek of the young person?" |
45623 | It makes me miserable, but what can I do? |
45623 | It was lucky he was not in a bank; for he had only a moderate income, and who knows to what he might have been driven? |
45623 | It would require a genius to really prove such a connection, and as he would, on his own theory, be a lunatic, what becomes of his theory?" |
45623 | It''s by that new woman who came out last year and calls herself Andrew Dibdin, is n''t it?" |
45623 | Know you not the idioms of your own barbarian tongue? |
45623 | Leave me, I pray you; or, must I ring the bell?" |
45623 | Let me see, was it Campbell or Belfort who shot himself? |
45623 | May I ask what are the peculiar experiences you speak of?" |
45623 | May I ask what it is?'' |
45623 | May I trust it is now re- established, and that"Olotutu"has washed away the apparent stain on my character? |
45623 | May I wait to see Clorinda?" |
45623 | Meantime as it is getting very late, and as I have finished my lemonade, I will bid you good afternoon-- have you used''Olotutu?''" |
45623 | Might I have another egg?'' |
45623 | Mine is the Lady Travellers''--do you know it, Miss Dulcimer?" |
45623 | Moreover, was he not responsible for Fladpick''s being, and thus for all the evil done by his Frankenstein? |
45623 | Must they not be true of herself? |
45623 | Need we feel a less genuine passion Because we{ shall} live in May- fair? |
45623 | Oh, when are they going to make that tunnel?" |
45623 | On page 112, a quotation mark was removed after"then silence any more?". |
45623 | On page 23, a double quotation mark was added after"What do men think?" |
45623 | On third thoughts I went on in my best English,"May I in return be favored with the pleasure of knowing your name?" |
45623 | Once we begin to break the law where are we to stop? |
45623 | Or shall we say the 11- 15 from Paddington, Popsy?'' |
45623 | Or was it some deeper impulse? |
45623 | Or why not get a music- master or a professor of painting?" |
45623 | Or would you like some lemonade?" |
45623 | Or, fallen deeper, is he politician, Stumping the land, his country''s quack physician? |
45623 | Original, is n''t it, to have your hero hungry in the first chapter? |
45623 | Ought I to entertain that?" |
45623 | Out of a sack containing three thousand coins, what are the odds that a man will draw the one marked coin?" |
45623 | Presently she murmured:"But think what you are asking me to do? |
45623 | Say, when thy popularity shall fade? |
45623 | Shall I tell it you?" |
45623 | Shall I write you a recommendation?" |
45623 | Shall we say 11.15 from Paddington since the sea will not give up its dead? |
45623 | She rolled up the MS."But,"said Lillie excitedly, breaking in for the first time,"what is the way you want them to come?" |
45623 | Should I tell him my real name? |
45623 | Smythe?" |
45623 | So I shall not need to try Miss Radowski?" |
45623 | So why should I suffer for the sins of my predecessors? |
45623 | Still can it ever be a serious success? |
45623 | Suppose I had never been born?" |
45623 | The first words of love comes from his mouth-- and what think you that he say? |
45623 | The retiring candidate does not state_ what_ Providence has granted, does she?" |
45623 | The twenty- fourth of October, did you say?" |
45623 | Then there is no chance at all for me on your paper?'' |
45623 | Then you will come to- morrow and tell me your final decision?" |
45623 | To pepper them with pellets of platitude?" |
45623 | To which, Lillie,"Why do you say such obvious things? |
45623 | True, it was a heavy burden to sustain, but what will a man not dare or suffer for the woman he loves? |
45623 | Truly, was there ever an age which had so much light and so little sweetness? |
45623 | Under such circumstances is not marriage a contract entered into under false pretences? |
45623 | Unless he is in need of money, why should he concern himself with the outside universe? |
45623 | Vain, vain the hope from Fate to flee, What special Providence for me? |
45623 | Vill you, in return, take_ mein frau_ into de Old Maids''Club?" |
45623 | Was I not saved by one? |
45623 | Was he to let the woman he loved fret herself to death for a shadow? |
45623 | Was it not imprudent for him to alienate the leading critic by marrying her? |
45623 | Was it that Ellaline was all these things incarnate? |
45623 | Was it that I resembled someone this man knew? |
45623 | Was n''t it invented in the States? |
45623 | Was she the unwilling accomplice of their discreditable designs? |
45623 | Was this to be the end of all my beautiful visions? |
45623 | Watchman, what of the night? |
45623 | Well, what will you wager?" |
45623 | Were it not better to possess my soul in peace and to cultivate it nobly and wisely and become a shining light of the higher spinsterhood?" |
45623 | Were n''t you in the accident?'' |
45623 | Were they human at all, these dusk glories Of eyes? |
45623 | What are you saying?" |
45623 | What are you talking about?" |
45623 | What certainty was there my singer was a hunchback? |
45623 | What do you conclude?" |
45623 | What else have you written?" |
45623 | What had they been doing to bring suffering to this fair girl, before whom all bowed in mock homage? |
45623 | What had they been plotting? |
45623 | What hands, now tinct with substances balsamic, Have set thee leaping like the sportive kids, What time the passers- by did close their lids? |
45623 | What in the name of all the saints could he possibly want with me? |
45623 | What is a social lion? |
45623 | What is a successful reception? |
45623 | What is it for which people barter health, happiness, even honor? |
45623 | What is it to be on the World''s lips, if the lips we love are to be taken away?" |
45623 | What is social ambition? |
45623 | What is the glory of doing compared with the glory of being? |
45623 | What is this terrible mystery? |
45623 | What makes you ask?" |
45623 | What next, sir? |
45623 | What other attraction have I? |
45623 | What part had I been playing in these uncanny transactions? |
45623 | What pleasure is there in such a conquest? |
45623 | What was the use of marrying a milksop like that? |
45623 | What? |
45623 | What_ do_ men think?" |
45623 | When are you going to let me have_ your_ face to paint?" |
45623 | When he comes home and finds Little Dolly is an old maid, wo n''t he be sorry, poor Philip? |
45623 | When is the wedding to be?" |
45623 | When you come to analyze it, what more does the greatest author do? |
45623 | Where do you hope to find this man?" |
45623 | Where from?" |
45623 | Where is the Shakespearean quality of this, which is, you say, the whole of Act Thirteen? |
45623 | Where is the youth by whom thou wast created And tipped profusely? |
45623 | Where would be the fun of a union without mutual recriminations and sweet reconciliations? |
45623 | Where?" |
45623 | Which are they?" |
45623 | Which of the jaws would touch me first? |
45623 | Who are these people?" |
45623 | Who but herself knew that she was not?" |
45623 | Why are you so pale and agitated? |
45623 | Why can you no longer think of me?" |
45623 | Why does your lordship ask?" |
45623 | Why indeed? |
45623 | Why should I allow myself to be viewed in the refracting medium of alien ink? |
45623 | Why should I expect immunity from the general fate? |
45623 | Why should I marry to gratify a man''s vanity, his cravings after cheap quixotism?" |
45623 | Why should he not become"the English Shakespeare?" |
45623 | Why should he show the cloven hoof just to- day? |
45623 | Why should weddings have a monopoly of presents? |
45623 | Why simply if she acquired an enamelled complexion, it might be the salvation of her, do n''t you see? |
45623 | Why, a question lies at the very threshold of marriage--''Wilt thou have this woman to be thy wedded wife?'' |
45623 | Will you be mine?" |
45623 | Will you promise to read the book if I lend it you?" |
45623 | Will you tell me, Miss Jack, what marriage has to offer to a woman like me?" |
45623 | Will you, or will you not, become Honorary Trier of the Old Maids''Club?" |
45623 | With young and beautiful girls?" |
45623 | Wo n''t you come to tea to- morrow?" |
45623 | Wo n''t you have a chocolate cream before you commence?" |
45623 | Wo n''t you sit down?" |
45623 | Would you be so good as to epitomize your scheme in twenty words? |
45623 | Would you sacrifice these things to your love for me?" |
45623 | Wretched woman, what have you done?'' |
45623 | Yes, why not? |
45623 | You agree with me?" |
45623 | You are there-- and there you_ are_, do n''t you know? |
45623 | You remember that book you liked so much--_The Cherub That Sits Up Aloft_?" |
45623 | You smile in your superior way, A Rainbow has no feet, you say? |
45623 | You will believe that, dearest?" |
45623 | You would n''t like her to be indifferent to what you were doing, saying, feeling?" |
45623 | You''re selling''Olotutu''to me, are n''t you? |
45623 | You, a plunderer of the dead, a harpy, a ghoul, ask what for?'' |
45623 | [ Illustration:"_ Is that the uniform of the Old Maids''Club?_"]"Is it to me you are referring as an unconventional female?" |
45623 | [ Illustration:"_ Is that the uniform of the Old Maids''Club?_"]"Is it to me you are referring as an unconventional female?" |
45623 | [ Illustration:"_ Knocked you, old man, this time, eh?_"]"Yes, all to pieces!" |
45623 | [ Illustration:_ Driven to Drink._]"And have you then finally decided to abandon Platonics?" |
45623 | [ Illustration:_ He was willing to become a Mormon._]"And what was your reply?" |
45623 | [ Illustration:_ I encircle him with my arms and speak with my lips._]"I love you?" |
45623 | [ Illustration:_ I pulled the paper from the dead hand._]"Died?" |
45623 | [ Illustration:_ The Old Maid arrives._]"Then he said in low tones:''Maggie, can I never become anything to you but a stranger?'' |
45623 | [ Illustration:_ The office boy edits the paper._]"Why? |
45623 | _ De mortuis nil nisi bonum._ Why reveal his breach of etiquette to the world? |
45623 | _ No!_ Will it be believed that( such is the heart of woman) I felt a sensation of relief on finding the issue still postponed? |
45623 | _ You_ reading_ Threepenny Bits_?" |
45623 | cried Lord Silverdale,"do you mean to say this is why you were so cold to me all those long weary months?" |
45623 | here it is--"The pocket- book contained letters addressed to Josiah Twaddon, Esquire, and----"''"''Twaddon, did you say?'' |
45623 | shrieked the_ Moon_-man, as the balloon began to free itself on its upward flight,"How far off is it?" |
45623 | to your baseness? |
45623 | what do you suppose they''re chartered for? |
45623 | who told you she was going to join?" |
45623 | why not? |
45623 | why should he not sacrifice himself to save this delicate creature from a premature tomb? |
45623 | you will nevermore eat fish?" |
4313 | ''A hymn?'' |
4313 | ''A month? |
4313 | ''A partner in your activity?'' |
4313 | ''A private gentleman?'' |
4313 | ''A walk? |
4313 | ''After all this, what have you to say to me, Rhoda?'' |
4313 | ''After all, that is_ not_ your ideal?'' |
4313 | ''After all, what ambition should he have?'' |
4313 | ''After all, you doubt of your love for me?'' |
4313 | ''Ah, that kind of person, is she?'' |
4313 | ''Ah, you went to Seascale, did you?'' |
4313 | ''Alice? |
4313 | ''Alice? |
4313 | ''Am I anything like this to_ you_? |
4313 | ''Am I never to advise?'' |
4313 | ''Am I right or not? |
4313 | ''And all''s well?'' |
4313 | ''And do you dread the voyage back?'' |
4313 | ''And do you feel better?'' |
4313 | ''And do you suppose,''asked Everard, with a smile of indulgence,''that I could marry on four hundred and fifty a year?'' |
4313 | ''And how is it likely to turn out?'' |
4313 | ''And how long have you been in London?'' |
4313 | ''And if you are sent for shall you go?'' |
4313 | ''And in London you will be alone too?'' |
4313 | ''And is it my business to discover that explanation?'' |
4313 | ''And it did n''t occur to you that it would be a kindness, not inconsistent with your dignity, to make me in some way acquainted with this fact?'' |
4313 | ''And now you will make up to me for it, Monica?'' |
4313 | ''And that was the immediate cause of his father''s leaving him poorly provided for?'' |
4313 | ''And we stand as when we quitted each other that night-- do we?'' |
4313 | ''And what can the old bear do to show that he''s sorry?'' |
4313 | ''And what did happen? |
4313 | ''And what did you tell her about me?'' |
4313 | ''And what did_ he_ say, when you''d said that?'' |
4313 | ''And what is the appointment you have got?'' |
4313 | ''And what is your latest paradox, Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | ''And what''--she laughed a little--''are the sure signs of worthiness? |
4313 | ''And what,''was her question at length,''would you be thinking of paying?'' |
4313 | ''And what_ has_ been the result?'' |
4313 | ''And where is your sister?'' |
4313 | ''And will you tell me where you are going to live?'' |
4313 | ''And you can still behave to me with indignation? |
4313 | ''And you did really speak about me? |
4313 | ''And you resolutely class yourself with them?'' |
4313 | ''And you seriously think, Miss Nunn, that by persuading as many women as possible to abstain from marriage you will improve the character of men?'' |
4313 | ''And you will let me see you again before long? |
4313 | ''And you wo n''t talk about being kept a prisoner?'' |
4313 | ''And you would ask me to wait on and on for one of these wonderful chances?'' |
4313 | ''And_ still_ you believe her innocent?'' |
4313 | ''Another cup of tea, Everard?'' |
4313 | ''Any difficulty of that point?'' |
4313 | ''Are we friends?'' |
4313 | ''Are we to part to- day, and never again see each other?'' |
4313 | ''Are we travelling the same way?'' |
4313 | ''Are you afraid I shall be robbed or murdered?'' |
4313 | ''Are you at leisure, Mrs. Conisbee? |
4313 | ''Are you quite sure about the distances?'' |
4313 | ''Are you really so ill- tempered?'' |
4313 | ''Are you so very tired? |
4313 | ''Are you sure she prefers it?'' |
4313 | ''Are you telling me the truth?'' |
4313 | ''At your age?'' |
4313 | ''Away?'' |
4313 | ''Axbridge? |
4313 | ''Back already?'' |
4313 | ''Because you are too proud, or because the mystery is still a mystery?'' |
4313 | ''Before or after that news came?'' |
4313 | ''Bevis? |
4313 | ''But do n''t you employ yourself in any way?'' |
4313 | ''But how long does it take?'' |
4313 | ''But how?'' |
4313 | ''But suppose marriage in no way interfered with your work?'' |
4313 | ''But surely you find no pleasure in that kind of thing, Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | ''But surely you grant the force of what I say?'' |
4313 | ''But surely, Miss Nunn,''cried the widow, turning to Rhoda,''we work for the abolition of all unjust privilege? |
4313 | ''But was there anything gross in the proceeding?'' |
4313 | ''But what are our arrangements? |
4313 | ''But what did he say about_ me_, dear?'' |
4313 | ''But what do you understand by enjoyment?'' |
4313 | ''But what have I done that you should love me less, dearest?'' |
4313 | ''But what_ have_ you told me? |
4313 | ''But who is she?'' |
4313 | ''But why not send a message, and ask her to come here?'' |
4313 | ''But why will she offer no explanation?'' |
4313 | ''But why?'' |
4313 | ''But you ca n''t honestly praise it?'' |
4313 | ''But you do n''t care for the thought?'' |
4313 | ''But you of course select the girls whom you instruct or employ?'' |
4313 | ''But you would not make it a mere deception?'' |
4313 | ''But, after all,_ is_ Mary wrong? |
4313 | ''But, putting love aside,''went on the other, very gravely,''what do you really know of Mr. Widdowson? |
4313 | ''But,''he urged,''if we became acquaintances in the ordinary way, and knew each other''s friends, would n''t that be most satisfactory to you?'' |
4313 | ''But,''urged his wife,''do you mean to break with her altogether? |
4313 | ''But-- didn''t it bring you friends as well as comfort?'' |
4313 | ''But-- do we speak the same language?'' |
4313 | ''But-- you do n''t think she could deceive him?'' |
4313 | ''But--''the girl hesitated--''don''t you approve of any one marrying?'' |
4313 | ''By the Orient Express?'' |
4313 | ''By the inquest?'' |
4313 | ''By- the- bye, under the head of detestable habit you would put love of children?'' |
4313 | ''Can I speak to you, please, miss?'' |
4313 | ''Can it be mine?'' |
4313 | ''Can it be--? |
4313 | ''Can you gratify my not unnatural curiosity?'' |
4313 | ''Can you honestly repeat to me what Barfoot was saying to- day, when you were on the seat together?'' |
4313 | ''Can you love me in return?'' |
4313 | ''Can you wait and take me with you?'' |
4313 | ''Come and see me, will you?'' |
4313 | ''Come on Sunday, will you? |
4313 | ''Convince you? |
4313 | ''Could n''t you have found some other example?'' |
4313 | ''Dare I? |
4313 | ''Dare you-- dare you do that?'' |
4313 | ''Despise you?'' |
4313 | ''Did he offer to go away?'' |
4313 | ''Did n''t I always use to be alone?'' |
4313 | ''Did n''t he behave gruffly last night to his little girl?'' |
4313 | ''Did n''t you know that?'' |
4313 | ''Did she give you any reason for the separation from her husband?'' |
4313 | ''Did the fog keep our guest away?'' |
4313 | ''Did you believe him when he denied--''''But what does it matter whether I believed him or not?'' |
4313 | ''Did you ever read any of Ouida''s novels?'' |
4313 | ''Did you know me before I happened to look round?'' |
4313 | ''Did you know that poor girl?'' |
4313 | ''Did you quarrel much?'' |
4313 | ''Did you see the light of sunset on the mountains?'' |
4313 | ''Did you? |
4313 | ''Did you?'' |
4313 | ''Dislike? |
4313 | ''Do I?'' |
4313 | ''Do allow me to go a short way with you?'' |
4313 | ''Do come next Saturday-- could you?'' |
4313 | ''Do n''t you blame the institution of marriage with what is chargeable to human fate? |
4313 | ''Do n''t you like the scent of burning peat from that cottage?'' |
4313 | ''Do n''t you think it best that we should take some step before our happiness is irretrievably ruined?'' |
4313 | ''Do n''t you think we might go out for half an hour?'' |
4313 | ''Do you feel any impulse to try for it?'' |
4313 | ''Do you know anything about Arromanches? |
4313 | ''Do you know my son, Mrs. Widdowson? |
4313 | ''Do you like Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | ''Do you like this neighbourhood, Miss Madden?'' |
4313 | ''Do you live in Guernsey?'' |
4313 | ''Do you love me any the less, Everard?'' |
4313 | ''Do you love me? |
4313 | ''Do you mean,''she said,''that Miss Nunn seems to disguise her feelings?'' |
4313 | ''Do you need a life of excitement?'' |
4313 | ''Do you play?'' |
4313 | ''Do you pretend you are innocent of any crime against me?'' |
4313 | ''Do you remember my saying in the letter how I hungered to taste your lips? |
4313 | ''Do you seriously think of leaving the shop?'' |
4313 | ''Do you smoke here-- in this room?'' |
4313 | ''Do you think I can leave you?'' |
4313 | ''Do you think he will really cane his sister- in- law?'' |
4313 | ''Do you think she has any acquaintance that he dislikes?'' |
4313 | ''Do you think she smoked?'' |
4313 | ''Do you think so?'' |
4313 | ''Do you think you can? |
4313 | ''Do you think,''asked the visitor,''that she regrets the step I persuaded her to take?'' |
4313 | ''Do you, by chance, know the Hodgson Bulls?'' |
4313 | ''Do you? |
4313 | ''Do you?'' |
4313 | ''Do you_ wish_ me to leave you?'' |
4313 | ''Does Mrs. Widdowson come to see you?'' |
4313 | ''Does he aim at nothing whatever?'' |
4313 | ''Does he complain about his wife?'' |
4313 | ''Does he? |
4313 | ''Does n''t it strike you that you take an advantage of me, as you did once before? |
4313 | ''Does she consent to go?'' |
4313 | ''Does she think of going into business?'' |
4313 | ''Does that really meet the case?'' |
4313 | ''Doing? |
4313 | ''Edmund, suppose you go home, and let me come back by myself? |
4313 | ''Edmund,''she said to him one evening, as they talked by the fireside,''do n''t you think you take life rather too gravely?'' |
4313 | ''Encouragement to refuse marriage?'' |
4313 | ''Even to inspiring the girls with zeal for an independent life?'' |
4313 | ''Everard, dearest--''Was that Rhoda''s voice, so low, tender, caressing? |
4313 | ''Everard, do you know Somerset at all?'' |
4313 | ''Evil? |
4313 | ''Excitement? |
4313 | ''Expense? |
4313 | ''Faithful to you?'' |
4313 | ''Fiction?'' |
4313 | ''For how many weeks, for how many months, have you been dishonouring me and yourself?'' |
4313 | ''Freedom?'' |
4313 | ''Freedom?'' |
4313 | ''Gravely? |
4313 | ''Had a long talk with Virginia, I suppose?'' |
4313 | ''Had you rather I did n''t come?'' |
4313 | ''Had your brother any children?'' |
4313 | ''Happened? |
4313 | ''Hard- hearted? |
4313 | ''Harm? |
4313 | ''Has Mr. Widdowson given her any cause for disliking him?'' |
4313 | ''Has he behaved brutally to you, dearest?'' |
4313 | ''Has he done so?'' |
4313 | ''Has it been going on for very long?'' |
4313 | ''Has n''t he wished to appeal to_ me_?'' |
4313 | ''Has she any one capable of taking your place?'' |
4313 | ''Have I ever denied the force of such feelings? |
4313 | ''Have n''t they made up their mind yet about the school? |
4313 | ''Have you a formal society, with rules and so on?'' |
4313 | ''Have you accepted Mrs. Luke''s invitation to dinner?'' |
4313 | ''Have you been here often?'' |
4313 | ''Have you been into the country?'' |
4313 | ''Have you been out this afternoon?'' |
4313 | ''Have you enjoyed your drive?'' |
4313 | ''Have you had bad news-- in the City?'' |
4313 | ''Have you no love for me? |
4313 | ''Have you planned a route after your stay at Seascale?'' |
4313 | ''Have you seen Everard since you went away?'' |
4313 | ''Have you still to dine?'' |
4313 | ''Have you undertaken to save him the expense of private detectives? |
4313 | ''Have you? |
4313 | ''He came? |
4313 | ''He declared that he was n''t to blame?'' |
4313 | ''He did n''t think of staying for my return?'' |
4313 | ''He has written to you?'' |
4313 | ''He informs you of that?'' |
4313 | ''He went there and told them everything?'' |
4313 | ''He''s often there, then?'' |
4313 | ''Her husband knows of this, of course-- of what you have told me?'' |
4313 | ''Hid? |
4313 | ''How about worship in a parochial sense?'' |
4313 | ''How about your new algebra?'' |
4313 | ''How am I to prove it?'' |
4313 | ''How are you to do that?'' |
4313 | ''How can I help thinking so?'' |
4313 | ''How can it matter?'' |
4313 | ''How can we help her, Monica? |
4313 | ''How can you ask such a question?'' |
4313 | ''How could I help? |
4313 | ''How did Miss Nunn look? |
4313 | ''How did you find this out?'' |
4313 | ''How did you make this lady''s acquaintance?'' |
4313 | ''How do you know that she is wrong?'' |
4313 | ''How do you suppose I got the thing published?'' |
4313 | ''How does Mary get on without you?'' |
4313 | ''How does the day stand with you?'' |
4313 | ''How is she?'' |
4313 | ''How is your patient?'' |
4313 | ''How long do you want to stay here?'' |
4313 | ''How shall I entreat you? |
4313 | ''How shall I put it?'' |
4313 | ''How was he to see that?'' |
4313 | ''How would it be possible for you to support a wife?'' |
4313 | ''How would that affect Mr. Micklethwaite''s betrothed?'' |
4313 | ''How,''asked Virginia timidly,''did the news first of all reach you?'' |
4313 | ''How?'' |
4313 | ''How?'' |
4313 | ''How_ could_ I think of marrying any one of that kind?'' |
4313 | ''I do n''t understand-- why has Alice come to- night?--what''s the time?'' |
4313 | ''I may write to you,''said Widdowson, his face set in an expression of anxiety,''and make an appointment, if possible, for the Sunday after next?'' |
4313 | ''I spoke rather exultantly, did n''t I? |
4313 | ''I suppose you would never have written to me?'' |
4313 | ''I thought you expressed a conviction that I was in the right?'' |
4313 | ''I? |
4313 | ''I? |
4313 | ''I? |
4313 | ''If I go to Rutland Street,''said Monica, without heeding this admonition,''could n''t you leave me there for an hour?'' |
4313 | ''If you ca n''t explain this letter, who can?'' |
4313 | ''In other words, then, you have ceased to love me?'' |
4313 | ''In plain words, Mr. Widdowson thinks he has cause for jealousy?'' |
4313 | ''In the day time?'' |
4313 | ''In the first proposal? |
4313 | ''In your own life, you mean?'' |
4313 | ''Indeed, mum?'' |
4313 | ''Indeed? |
4313 | ''Indeed?'' |
4313 | ''Is Miss Madden awake?'' |
4313 | ''Is Miss Nunn really such a determined enemy of marriage?'' |
4313 | ''Is Mr. Widdowson at home?'' |
4313 | ''Is emancipation getting as far as that? |
4313 | ''Is it a good place?'' |
4313 | ''Is it all in vain? |
4313 | ''Is it long since you went to live apart from them?'' |
4313 | ''Is it over?'' |
4313 | ''Is it possible that I can be of any service to you?'' |
4313 | ''Is it possible?'' |
4313 | ''Is it so bad as that? |
4313 | ''Is it too late?'' |
4313 | ''Is it-- is it possible--?'' |
4313 | ''Is mine as agreeable to you?'' |
4313 | ''Is n''t it allowed me to disapprove of what your conscience dictates?'' |
4313 | ''Is n''t it better?'' |
4313 | ''Is n''t it enough to be free oneself?'' |
4313 | ''Is n''t it true? |
4313 | ''Is n''t the spectacle of existence quite enough to occupy one through a lifetime? |
4313 | ''Is she an educated person?'' |
4313 | ''Is she well?'' |
4313 | ''Is she?'' |
4313 | ''Is such a life worthy of the name?'' |
4313 | ''Is that really true?'' |
4313 | ''Is there anything very good in the new Gilbert and Sullivan opera?'' |
4313 | ''It is possible she even thinks me a liar?'' |
4313 | ''It''s the child she''s anxious about?'' |
4313 | ''Just because I had to stand at a counter?'' |
4313 | ''Legal marriage,''she said, glancing at him,''has acquired some new sanction for you since then?'' |
4313 | ''MY DEAREST MONICA,''--the missive began--''Why have you not written before this? |
4313 | ''Married?'' |
4313 | ''Mary was fond of this girl?'' |
4313 | ''May I not hope to see you some day, when you are walking? |
4313 | ''May n''t I take her a word of forgiveness?'' |
4313 | ''Misled? |
4313 | ''Miss Madden is better to- day, I hope?'' |
4313 | ''Miss Nunn not at home?'' |
4313 | ''Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | ''Miss Royston had a certain cleverness, I grant; but do you think I did n''t know that she would never become what you hoped? |
4313 | ''Monica!--what is there before us? |
4313 | ''Monica--''''Well?'' |
4313 | ''Must you really know?'' |
4313 | ''My own darling, think what it would mean if our secret were discovered--''''Discovered? |
4313 | ''Need we talk of it?'' |
4313 | ''Need you answer?'' |
4313 | ''No matter at whose expense?'' |
4313 | ''No one writes to you?'' |
4313 | ''No, not since?'' |
4313 | ''No? |
4313 | ''Nobody that I know, I suppose?'' |
4313 | ''Nor even to work together?'' |
4313 | ''Not at home this evening?'' |
4313 | ''Not at home--? |
4313 | ''Not if I beseech you to, Monica? |
4313 | ''Not much difference? |
4313 | ''Not quite serious? |
4313 | ''Not that? |
4313 | ''Not very well? |
4313 | ''Not worth while?'' |
4313 | ''Nothing else-- you are sure?'' |
4313 | ''Now that''s rather a strange thing-- isn''t it? |
4313 | ''Now, what do you really want? |
4313 | ''Now, when are_ you_ going to marry?'' |
4313 | ''Now, why ca n''t we always live like this? |
4313 | ''Now, wo n''t you be glad? |
4313 | ''Of course you have no doubt of her guilt?'' |
4313 | ''Of the lower classes, then?'' |
4313 | ''Of what?'' |
4313 | ''Oh, but that''s among the foreigners, is n''t it?'' |
4313 | ''Oh, do you think she would?'' |
4313 | ''Oh, is it_ you_, Edmund? |
4313 | ''Oh, is she?'' |
4313 | ''Oh, well, if you''re going to be narsty?'' |
4313 | ''Oh, what does it matter? |
4313 | ''Oh, who knows? |
4313 | ''Oh, why not? |
4313 | ''Oh, why not?'' |
4313 | ''Oh-- why? |
4313 | ''Oh? |
4313 | ''On Saturday? |
4313 | ''Or are you doubtful of your own love?'' |
4313 | ''Or do you just tolerate me out of good- nature?'' |
4313 | ''Ought they? |
4313 | ''Plainly-- you will tell me nothing?'' |
4313 | ''Poppleton? |
4313 | ''Practically, his father disinherited him?'' |
4313 | ''Pray, did you go to the Savoy?'' |
4313 | ''Pray, who ever distinguished in such a case between reason and inclination?'' |
4313 | ''Quite well?'' |
4313 | ''Really? |
4313 | ''Really? |
4313 | ''Rhoda, what comfort have you for the poor in spirit?'' |
4313 | ''Scoundrel enough? |
4313 | ''Sent for? |
4313 | ''Seriously ill, do you mean?'' |
4313 | ''Shall I ask the landlady to help me up with the luggage?'' |
4313 | ''Shall I be a burden to you?'' |
4313 | ''Shall I find a lodging for you till Tuesday?'' |
4313 | ''Shall I leave you to your meditations?'' |
4313 | ''Shall we go home again?'' |
4313 | ''Shall you go first, or shall I?'' |
4313 | ''Shall you stay here all the week?'' |
4313 | ''Shall you take me to see her?'' |
4313 | ''She came to your wedding? |
4313 | ''She consented?'' |
4313 | ''She has a very striking face-- don''t you think so?'' |
4313 | ''She has never been there before?'' |
4313 | ''She has said so?'' |
4313 | ''She knows you sent for me?'' |
4313 | ''Should you think me a poor creature if I resented any kind of unfaithfulness?--whether love, in any noble sense, had part in it or not?'' |
4313 | ''So it is your birthday? |
4313 | ''So long as that? |
4313 | ''So there''s an end of our misery-- isn''t it, darling? |
4313 | ''So you have come after all?'' |
4313 | ''So young? |
4313 | ''So your brother always refused to help you?'' |
4313 | ''So,''he proceeded,''Miss Nunn regards me as a proved scoundrel?'' |
4313 | ''Some one you have been in correspondence with?'' |
4313 | ''Something that has been troubling you since morning, is n''t it?'' |
4313 | ''Something that''s going wrong?'' |
4313 | ''Something to do? |
4313 | ''Sorry? |
4313 | ''Speaking as a woman, should you say that Rhoda had reason on her side-- in the first instance?'' |
4313 | ''Stay with my-- my husband?'' |
4313 | ''Summer holidays are unknown to you, I suppose?'' |
4313 | ''Surprised you? |
4313 | ''Tell me-- I have every right to ask-- what you most fear?'' |
4313 | ''Tell me-- do you think it right for me to live with my husband when I ca n''t even regard him as a friend?'' |
4313 | ''That affair you told me about some years ago?'' |
4313 | ''That comes as a surprise?'' |
4313 | ''That is by no means impossible for you, I think?'' |
4313 | ''That letter you wrote to me at Ostend-- did it represent Rhoda''s mind as well as your own?'' |
4313 | ''That was why you could n''t see me?'' |
4313 | ''That was your purpose--?'' |
4313 | ''The lady took it ill?'' |
4313 | ''The reason.--Because you have no faith in me?'' |
4313 | ''The school? |
4313 | ''Then how can you ask me to believe your assurance that she is n''t guilty?'' |
4313 | ''Then how could you have hoped to see me?'' |
4313 | ''Then what is the difference?'' |
4313 | ''Then why did you insist upon it?'' |
4313 | ''Then why not ask her? |
4313 | ''Then why were you so particular to forbid me, Monica?'' |
4313 | ''Then will you let me ask you a rude question?'' |
4313 | ''Then your sisters will go to Guernsey?'' |
4313 | ''Then, please, how is she to judge her acquaintances?'' |
4313 | ''They compelled her to?'' |
4313 | ''This is your birthday?'' |
4313 | ''To Cumberland?'' |
4313 | ''To be used in the next world?'' |
4313 | ''To do? |
4313 | ''To hear about her? |
4313 | ''To hear what?'' |
4313 | ''To part? |
4313 | ''To shop work again?'' |
4313 | ''To- morrow we go to Coniston?'' |
4313 | ''To- morrow you leave here?'' |
4313 | ''Tom? |
4313 | ''Was he a swell?'' |
4313 | ''Was it really moral censure that kept you from writing to him?'' |
4313 | ''Was it? |
4313 | ''Was there anything you wished particularly to speak about?'' |
4313 | ''We shall go to her, of course?'' |
4313 | ''Wednesday is the forbidden evening, is it not?'' |
4313 | ''Well, do n''t you think you''ve had about enough of it-- experience and all?'' |
4313 | ''Well, what has that to do with money- making?'' |
4313 | ''Well,''he continued,''what have you to say to me?'' |
4313 | ''Westward?'' |
4313 | ''What about your holiday this year?'' |
4313 | ''What are you going to do?'' |
4313 | ''What are you talking about?'' |
4313 | ''What can have caused this? |
4313 | ''What can this letter mean? |
4313 | ''What can we possibly do for the older ones?'' |
4313 | ''What chance is there that this girl will marry suitably?'' |
4313 | ''What comparison is there? |
4313 | ''What could you possibly say that would offend me?'' |
4313 | ''What did Virginia say? |
4313 | ''What do I care? |
4313 | ''What do the words matter?'' |
4313 | ''What do you advise?'' |
4313 | ''What do you mean by that?'' |
4313 | ''What do you mean? |
4313 | ''What do you mean?'' |
4313 | ''What happened them?'' |
4313 | ''What happened?'' |
4313 | ''What harm in my holding your glove? |
4313 | ''What has happened?'' |
4313 | ''What have I said or done to put you in such a state? |
4313 | ''What have you been doing, Virgie?'' |
4313 | ''What have you heard?'' |
4313 | ''What if I did? |
4313 | ''What in the world am I to do?'' |
4313 | ''What is it, dear?'' |
4313 | ''What is it,''she asked,''that you most fear?'' |
4313 | ''What is it?'' |
4313 | ''What is the matter? |
4313 | ''What is the use of such questions?'' |
4313 | ''What is your objection?'' |
4313 | ''What law do you mean?'' |
4313 | ''What man lives in celibacy? |
4313 | ''What possible harm is there in Mr. Barfoot, when he meets me by chance in a public place, having a conversation with me? |
4313 | ''What reasonable hope have you?'' |
4313 | ''What rent should you ask?'' |
4313 | ''What shall I do, Miss Nunn? |
4313 | ''What sort of life have you imagined for me? |
4313 | ''What time would it be?'' |
4313 | ''What tone? |
4313 | ''What? |
4313 | ''What? |
4313 | ''What_ could_ have been better?'' |
4313 | ''What_ do_ you think? |
4313 | ''What_ is_ your work? |
4313 | ''What_ might_ that be, I wonder?'' |
4313 | ''What_ was_ it?'' |
4313 | ''Whatever she tells me-- how can I believe it? |
4313 | ''When are you silly young people coming to an end of your honeymoon? |
4313 | ''When did you see me?'' |
4313 | ''When did your lies begin? |
4313 | ''When you say that,''Monica answered,''do you ever ask yourself whether you try to make me love you? |
4313 | ''When your letter came, could I very well have acted otherwise than I did? |
4313 | ''When, in fact, it had happened?'' |
4313 | ''Where are you going?'' |
4313 | ''Where are you going?'' |
4313 | ''Where did you meet him?'' |
4313 | ''Where does he appear from?'' |
4313 | ''Where is Monica employed?'' |
4313 | ''Where is Mrs. Widdowson living?'' |
4313 | ''Where is the impossibility? |
4313 | ''Where were you? |
4313 | ''Whereabouts?'' |
4313 | ''Who can that be?'' |
4313 | ''Who can this be from, Alice?'' |
4313 | ''Who first used the word, Rhoda?'' |
4313 | ''Who is the source of your information about me?'' |
4313 | ''Who knows any one well enough to say that a charge_ must_ be unfounded?'' |
4313 | ''Who knows? |
4313 | ''Who knows? |
4313 | ''Who''s that?'' |
4313 | ''Who-- who is it?'' |
4313 | ''Why are you here at this time?'' |
4313 | ''Why are you so cruel to me?'' |
4313 | ''Why are you talking in this tone?'' |
4313 | ''Why did n''t you speak of it before we left home? |
4313 | ''Why do n''t you go as well?'' |
4313 | ''Why do you encourage that fear of your life coming to an end?'' |
4313 | ''Why do you say that?'' |
4313 | ''Why do you want me to repeat exactly what I said?'' |
4313 | ''Why does n''t she aim at some better position?'' |
4313 | ''Why have you come to- night?'' |
4313 | ''Why have you come? |
4313 | ''Why have you not been to see me before this?'' |
4313 | ''Why have you thought of it?'' |
4313 | ''Why not? |
4313 | ''Why not? |
4313 | ''Why not?'' |
4313 | ''Why not?'' |
4313 | ''Why not?'' |
4313 | ''Why not?'' |
4313 | ''Why not?'' |
4313 | ''Why should mother say what she does n''t mean?'' |
4313 | ''Why should you ask that? |
4313 | ''Why should you doubt it?'' |
4313 | ''Why should you wish to tell_ me_?'' |
4313 | ''Why will men marry fools?'' |
4313 | ''Why"of course"? |
4313 | ''Why, indeed?'' |
4313 | ''Why? |
4313 | ''Why? |
4313 | ''Why? |
4313 | ''Will it do?'' |
4313 | ''Will you allow me to walk a little way with you?'' |
4313 | ''Will you answer me a question with perfect truthfulness?'' |
4313 | ''Will you ask her to come and see me?'' |
4313 | ''Will you cease coming to look for me when I do n''t know of it?'' |
4313 | ''Will you come and see Miss Barfoot?'' |
4313 | ''Will you give me a few minutes now?'' |
4313 | ''Will you give me the piece of music?'' |
4313 | ''Will you go with me to Mrs. Cosgrove''s this evening?'' |
4313 | ''Will you have the kindness to tell me,''he said more gravely,''whether my cousin was suffering only from that cause?'' |
4313 | ''Will you hear what I have to say, Miss Nunn? |
4313 | ''Will you kiss me?'' |
4313 | ''Will you let me shake hands with you?'' |
4313 | ''Will you marry me?'' |
4313 | ''Will you please to give me your cousin''s letter?'' |
4313 | ''Will you please to tell me,''he asked''whether Mrs. Widdowson is here?'' |
4313 | ''Will you tell me about them?'' |
4313 | ''Will you tell me in plain terms what it was that your cousin did when he disgraced himself?'' |
4313 | ''Will you tell me something more about the"experience"you are getting? |
4313 | ''Will you tell me, Miss Nunn, why you behave so coldly to me?'' |
4313 | ''Will you? |
4313 | ''Will you?'' |
4313 | ''With Mr. Bullivant? |
4313 | ''Without sympathy, of course?'' |
4313 | ''Wo n''t it make our life so much simpler and happier?'' |
4313 | ''Wo n''t you come out again after supper?'' |
4313 | ''Work? |
4313 | ''Would it be possible? |
4313 | ''Would it be right if I ceased to care for every one else? |
4313 | ''Would n''t it be better still if you left me?'' |
4313 | ''Would n''t you like to smoke a cigar before we start again?'' |
4313 | ''Would you be willing to pay five and sixpence?'' |
4313 | ''Would you have received us?'' |
4313 | ''Yes, but I can not think-- isn''t that just a little narrow?'' |
4313 | ''Yielding in one point that did n''t matter to you at all? |
4313 | ''You always take coffee, I think?'' |
4313 | ''You are Miss Vesper?'' |
4313 | ''You are absolutely sure that this is the case?'' |
4313 | ''You are conscious of no difference?'' |
4313 | ''You are going?'' |
4313 | ''You are leaving? |
4313 | ''You are on friendly terms with such people?'' |
4313 | ''You are resolved never to marry?'' |
4313 | ''You are returning to him?'' |
4313 | ''You are still doubtful of me, Rhoda?'' |
4313 | ''You are sure you can leave home to- morrow-- without being suspected?'' |
4313 | ''You are sure you have n''t exaggerated Mr. Barfoot''s failings?'' |
4313 | ''You are-- really?'' |
4313 | ''You are?'' |
4313 | ''You ca n''t say that you love me?'' |
4313 | ''You confess it? |
4313 | ''You could hardly believe it, I dare say? |
4313 | ''You could n''t imagine Miss Nunn in such a costume?'' |
4313 | ''You dare not face Mary?'' |
4313 | ''You do n''t find them very pleasant company?'' |
4313 | ''You do n''t think it would be an improvement?'' |
4313 | ''You do pardon me, Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | ''You expect me to believe you?'' |
4313 | ''You go on Monday?'' |
4313 | ''You go to her house sometimes?'' |
4313 | ''You had quite lost sight of her, had n''t you?'' |
4313 | ''You hate it?'' |
4313 | ''You have been away-- out of England?'' |
4313 | ''You have left the shop?'' |
4313 | ''You have n''t been waiting here long, I hope?'' |
4313 | ''You have n''t had dinner?'' |
4313 | ''You have n''t made Mr. Barfoot''s acquaintance yet?'' |
4313 | ''You have n''t seen each other?'' |
4313 | ''You have n''t seen him more than once before?'' |
4313 | ''You have never been there?'' |
4313 | ''You have no inclination to study now?'' |
4313 | ''You have seen him then?'' |
4313 | ''You have?'' |
4313 | ''You knew he was going to Cumberland?'' |
4313 | ''You know that Miss Nunn has gone down into Cumberland?'' |
4313 | ''You know we could n''t go on living like this-- don''t you, Monica?'' |
4313 | ''You left this morning, and have only just returned?'' |
4313 | ''You love me?'' |
4313 | ''You mean about the school?'' |
4313 | ''You mean that he has task enough in striving to be an honourable man?'' |
4313 | ''You mean that we are to go through the lakes together-- as we have been to- day?'' |
4313 | ''You mean that you believe everything Mr. Widdowson has said?'' |
4313 | ''You mean that?'' |
4313 | ''You mean_ him_?'' |
4313 | ''You must feel rather lonely in your lodgings sometimes?'' |
4313 | ''You notice it? |
4313 | ''You prefer driving?'' |
4313 | ''You promise faithfully? |
4313 | ''You really have?'' |
4313 | ''You regret that it is n''t done?'' |
4313 | ''You say you were never at that man''s rooms before to- day?'' |
4313 | ''You talked to him, did n''t you?'' |
4313 | ''You think I have behaved rather badly-- let us say, harshly?'' |
4313 | ''You think it natural? |
4313 | ''You think the person at Southend wo n''t write again?'' |
4313 | ''You thoroughly approve all this, Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | ''You went when Miss Nunn was there?'' |
4313 | ''You were at the Savoy?'' |
4313 | ''You were born at Cheddar?'' |
4313 | ''You will bring this girl back, and continue teaching her as before?'' |
4313 | ''You will forgive me?'' |
4313 | ''You will have it?'' |
4313 | ''You will take me away with you?'' |
4313 | ''You wish me to?'' |
4313 | ''You wish to know still more of me, personally?'' |
4313 | ''You wo n''t be hard upon a starving man?'' |
4313 | ''You would n''t allow him to?'' |
4313 | ''You would n''t care to tell me about-- anything? |
4313 | ''You would n''t mind telling me what your married name may be?'' |
4313 | ''You? |
4313 | ''Your sisters are not here to- day?'' |
4313 | ''Your sisters are older than yourself?'' |
4313 | ''Your view of the fitness of things is that I should request her to wait upon you for that purpose?'' |
4313 | ''Your work? |
4313 | ''_ A propos_,''said Everard,''did you ever read"The City of Dreadful Night"?'' |
4313 | *** Arromanches, in Normandy--? |
4313 | After a week of convalescence, she said one morning,--''Could n''t we go away somewhere? |
4313 | After all, was he not behaving in the very way she ought to desire? |
4313 | After glancing at her once or twice, he said reprovingly,--''Have you finished your Sunday book?'' |
4313 | All days and times are the same to me; but I am afraid it is only on Sunday that you are at leisure?'' |
4313 | Am I not your father in mathematics?'' |
4313 | Am I to make my bow, and abandon in resignation the one chance of perfecting my life?'' |
4313 | And Rhoda Nunn? |
4313 | And because you were disappointed, did n''t you wait about, and go there a second time?'' |
4313 | And do you really feel better?'' |
4313 | And have you really taken a house there, Edmund? |
4313 | And how can I blame him? |
4313 | And how long did it take you to write this little book?'' |
4313 | And how would it result? |
4313 | And if for him it became earnest, why what did he seek but strong experiences? |
4313 | And is your work as successful as ever?'' |
4313 | And it is really your birthday? |
4313 | And may I smoke?'' |
4313 | And might not an avowal of the whole truth elicit from her counsel of gratitude-- some solace, some guidance? |
4313 | And now we may really be friends, I hope?'' |
4313 | And take lodgings, you mean? |
4313 | And were you quite serious in_ anything_ you said?'' |
4313 | And when are you coming to see them again?'' |
4313 | And why had she consented? |
4313 | And why should this love ever have an end? |
4313 | And wore a wedding garment?'' |
4313 | And yet we_ were_ happy, were n''t we, my beautiful? |
4313 | And you will meet me a little oftener?'' |
4313 | And your sisters?'' |
4313 | Are female teachers to be vowed to celibacy?'' |
4313 | Are they still the same?'' |
4313 | Are you alone?'' |
4313 | Are you going far?'' |
4313 | Are you here for the whole winter?'' |
4313 | Are you in bed yet?'' |
4313 | Are you living quite alone?'' |
4313 | Are you married?'' |
4313 | Are you obliged to go anywhere?'' |
4313 | Are you really sorry? |
4313 | Are you so blind as to imagine that any good will ever come of such a person? |
4313 | As you have always spoken with pleasure of your old home, Clevedon, suppose we give up this house and go and live there?'' |
4313 | As you have no particular engagement, Mr. Bullivant, would n''t it be kind to--?'' |
4313 | At this moment, was she not contending with herself? |
4313 | Barfoot wo n''t leave before ten, I suppose?'' |
4313 | Barfoot would think so? |
4313 | Barfoot?'' |
4313 | Barfoot?'' |
4313 | Barfoot?'' |
4313 | Barfoot?'' |
4313 | Barfoot?'' |
4313 | Bending slightly forward, with an anxious expression, she said in confidential tones--''Can you help to put my mind at rest about Monica? |
4313 | Bevis?'' |
4313 | Bullivant?'' |
4313 | Bullivant?'' |
4313 | Bullivant?'' |
4313 | But come now, is n''t there any way in which I could help?'' |
4313 | But could n''t I see her for a moment?'' |
4313 | But could n''t one open a preparatory school, for instance? |
4313 | But do you know that there are half a million more women than men in this happy country of ours?'' |
4313 | But for what? |
4313 | But had she really the least chance of marrying a man whom she could respect-- not to say love? |
4313 | But how can we think of that? |
4313 | But how do you develop and fortify yourself?'' |
4313 | But how if Everard resisted such tendencies? |
4313 | But how would it affect his thought of her? |
4313 | But how? |
4313 | But if I write a line to you, say on Friday, would you let me know whether you can come?'' |
4313 | But if his intellectual sympathy became tinged with passion-- and did he discern no possibility of that? |
4313 | But is n''t it true that your health has a graver importance than if you yourself only were concerned?'' |
4313 | But might I not change your views of it-- in some respects?'' |
4313 | But must not Everard''s conception of her have suffered? |
4313 | But of course I shall see you again before the end of July? |
4313 | But since then? |
4313 | But suppose she still meets me with the remark that things are just as they were-- that nothing has been explained?'' |
4313 | But was there anything more-- any new power? |
4313 | But what about the great number of girls who are claimed by domestic duties? |
4313 | But what can a man do, unless he has genius?'' |
4313 | But what is_ your_ love worth?'' |
4313 | But when we get back again, how will it be? |
4313 | But why should n''t you respect and love a girl who belongs to good society?'' |
4313 | But why were you sure about it?'' |
4313 | But will you assist us to find a suitable place?'' |
4313 | But would n''t it be possible to make a better use of that money? |
4313 | But you would hardly dream of taking her back again?'' |
4313 | But, Miss Madden, may I not be on terms of friendship with you?'' |
4313 | But, by- the- bye, how did it come about?'' |
4313 | But-- were you thinking of abroad?'' |
4313 | But--''''But?'' |
4313 | Can not I persuade you, dear? |
4313 | Can you explain Monica''s behaviour-- not only on that one occasion, but the deceit she practised at other times? |
4313 | Can you give me certainty? |
4313 | Can you remember?'' |
4313 | Carr?'' |
4313 | Conisbee?'' |
4313 | Constraining him to legal marriage, would she not lower herself in his estimation, and make the endurance of his love less probable? |
4313 | Copying with a type- machine, and teaching others to do the same-- isn''t that it?'' |
4313 | Could I have a little conversation with you?'' |
4313 | Could he be right in the interpretation which at once suggested itself to his mind-- or perhaps to his vanity? |
4313 | Could he not even now retrace his steps? |
4313 | Could it be that this man reciprocated, and more than reciprocated, her complex feeling? |
4313 | Could n''t they have a talk at the place in Great Portland Street, when no one else was there? |
4313 | Could n''t you help us, dear Miss Nunn? |
4313 | Could she even think of it? |
4313 | Could such a marriage as this be judged a marriage at all, in any true sense of the word? |
4313 | Could we not agree upon terms within my-- within my power?'' |
4313 | Could you have imagined anything so disgraceful?'' |
4313 | Did I frighten you with those joking confessions in my letters? |
4313 | Did I understand you to say that you go away tomorrow? |
4313 | Did he not love her? |
4313 | Did it matter what he might think? |
4313 | Did it signify mere jealousy, or a profounder view of things? |
4313 | Did n''t the day''s perfection end before there was any word of marriage?'' |
4313 | Did n''t you go to that man Barfoot''s door and knock there? |
4313 | Did she herself do any kind of artistic work? |
4313 | Did she say anything, or give any sign, that might make one really uneasy on her account?'' |
4313 | Did she take enough exercise? |
4313 | Did she tell you anything about her wonderful son?'' |
4313 | Did you come to keep me in sight?'' |
4313 | Did you ever have piano lessons?'' |
4313 | Did you expect me?'' |
4313 | Did you seriously wish me to know him?'' |
4313 | Did you?'' |
4313 | Do I seem to you a shallow optimist?'' |
4313 | Do ladies enter into that kind of union?'' |
4313 | Do n''t I seem to enjoy myself?'' |
4313 | Do n''t you envy her, Monica? |
4313 | Do n''t you feel ever so little regret that your severe logic prevailed?'' |
4313 | Do n''t you know, my dear boy, that there are heaps of ladies, real ladies, waiting the first decent man who offers them five or six hundred a year? |
4313 | Do n''t you know, sir, that my invitations are like those of Royalty-- polite commands?'' |
4313 | Do n''t you love me enough to face whatever may happen?'' |
4313 | Do n''t you regret giving me permission to call upon you? |
4313 | Do they give you any summer holiday?'' |
4313 | Do you abandon them, with a helpless sigh, to be moping and mawkish and unhealthy?'' |
4313 | Do you advocate polygamy? |
4313 | Do you care for books?'' |
4313 | Do you know any man that would dream of marrying her?'' |
4313 | Do you know it?'' |
4313 | Do you know that he has taken a house at Clevedon-- a beautiful house? |
4313 | Do you know what it is to be in love?'' |
4313 | Do you really love me?'' |
4313 | Do you remember the name of Micklethwaite-- a man who used to cram me with mathematics? |
4313 | Do you say it with the ordinary meaning?'' |
4313 | Do you sit here day after day and call each other pretty names? |
4313 | Do you still intend--''''Intend? |
4313 | Do you suppose I drink? |
4313 | Do you think now that we know one single girl who in her heart believes it is better never to love and never to marry?'' |
4313 | Do you think of me as your servant, Edmund?'' |
4313 | Do you think of me with less friendliness than when we had our evening on the river?'' |
4313 | Do you think she is sorry?'' |
4313 | Do you wonder that I would walk the diameter of the globe to win her love?'' |
4313 | Does any one suspect--?'' |
4313 | Does he interest you?'' |
4313 | Does it strike you as so very bad?'' |
4313 | Does she ever speak of me?'' |
4313 | Does that name convey anything to you? |
4313 | Does that please you?'' |
4313 | During the past month-- the past three months-- have you made profession of love-- have you even pretended love-- to any woman?'' |
4313 | Eight hundred pounds is, to be sure, a sum of money; but how, in these circumstances, was it to be applied? |
4313 | Even if her strength sufficed for simulating a natural manner, could she consent to play so base a part? |
4313 | For instance, what time is given you for meals?'' |
4313 | Had she been suffering long? |
4313 | Had she ever loved him? |
4313 | Had she not anguish enough to endure without the addition of frantic jealousy? |
4313 | Had she or not a vein of sentiment in her character? |
4313 | Had she wholesome variety of occupation? |
4313 | Had the new revelation prepared itself? |
4313 | Had the patient any mental disquietude? |
4313 | Had the poor little woman-- doubtless miserable with her husband-- actually let herself fall in love with him? |
4313 | Has it, or has it not, occurred to you to see Mrs. Widdowson herself? |
4313 | Has n''t he cause for jealousy? |
4313 | Has she come to a decision?'' |
4313 | Has she spoken to you of any?'' |
4313 | Have n''t you an early- closing day?'' |
4313 | Have n''t you broken the understanding three or four times?'' |
4313 | Have n''t you known it?'' |
4313 | Have the girls told you that there''s a nightingale in Mr. Williams''s orchard?'' |
4313 | Have you any doubt of me?'' |
4313 | Have you bathed?'' |
4313 | Have you been followed? |
4313 | Have you begun to hate me?'' |
4313 | Have you ever been in love with any man?'' |
4313 | Have you never thought of employing it in some practical enterprise?'' |
4313 | Have you promised never to let me go out of your sight?'' |
4313 | Have you still the same pleasure in living there?'' |
4313 | Have you told her any scandal about me?'' |
4313 | Have you-- have you ventured to tell her?'' |
4313 | Having lost one purpose in life, dignified, absorbing, likely to extend its sphere as time went on, what other could she hope to substitute for it? |
4313 | He added, in an undertone,''I hope I may include you, Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | He asked you to marry him?'' |
4313 | He believed she had been a pupil of Miss Barfoot''s at one time? |
4313 | He did not look round, but said carelessly,--''So you are back?'' |
4313 | He refused to say more, and what am I to believe?'' |
4313 | He seemed to be reproving himself for a blunder, and after a short silence asked in a tone of kindness,--''Do you prefer the town?'' |
4313 | He smiled constrainedly, and said in a low voice,--''You wish for that old, idle form--?'' |
4313 | Houghton?'' |
4313 | How can I go back there, with your kisses on my lips? |
4313 | How can I help them so effectually as by living among them, one of them, and showing that my life is anything but weariness and lamentation? |
4313 | How can I leave you?'' |
4313 | How can I live until--? |
4313 | How can we hope that any one will take her as a companion? |
4313 | How can you doubt it?'' |
4313 | How can you think Monica--? |
4313 | How can you think of such a thing? |
4313 | How could she expect to find him? |
4313 | How could she have got the address?'' |
4313 | How did he meet the charge Mr. Widdowson made against him?'' |
4313 | How did she speak?'' |
4313 | How do you understand it? |
4313 | How else can I behave to_ you_--conscious of my innocence, yet in the nature of things unable to prove it?'' |
4313 | How had this stiff, stern fellow with the grizzled beard won such a wife? |
4313 | How have you spoken of me to Miss Nunn?'' |
4313 | How is he going on?'' |
4313 | How is my cousin to- day?'' |
4313 | How many hours''genuine happiness of soul had that love afforded him? |
4313 | How many marriages were anything more than mutual forbearance? |
4313 | How old are you, Monica?'' |
4313 | How old might he be? |
4313 | How shall we go home?'' |
4313 | How to get at the secrets of this woman''s heart? |
4313 | How would such practical heresy affect Everard''s position? |
4313 | How, indeed, was he to defend himself? |
4313 | How_ could_ you?'' |
4313 | How_ dare_ I remain with a man I hate?'' |
4313 | I am sure you will sit down with me?'' |
4313 | I ca n''t live without you--''''But, if that is true, why have n''t you the courage to let every one know it? |
4313 | I ca n''t talk--''''And you do n''t really know nothing about_ him_?'' |
4313 | I do n''t know how I have refrained so long--''''What is your love worth?'' |
4313 | I may perhaps come to feel you as a girl ought to when she marries, and how else can I tell unless I meet you and talk with you? |
4313 | I mean, what woman above the level of a petted pussy- cat?'' |
4313 | I myself do n''t think it was very delicate, but have n''t you worried me to say something of the kind?'' |
4313 | I repeat what I said then: Rhoda, will you marry me?'' |
4313 | I spoke without thinking--''''But_ why_ should you speak like that? |
4313 | I suppose he is in some profession?'' |
4313 | I think-- will you permit me to sit down? |
4313 | I told her that there was no truth in--''''But how did she look?'' |
4313 | I wonder what she is doing? |
4313 | If I am so unhappy as to fail, how would you be anything but quite free?'' |
4313 | If I have not perfect trust in you what will become of me?'' |
4313 | If Micklethwaite''s Algebra got accepted in all the schools, what would that mean to Mick? |
4313 | If Monica persisted, what means had he of confining her to the house-- short of carrying her by main force to an upper room and there locking her in? |
4313 | If a man merely travelled, could he possibly exhaust all the beauties and magnificences that are offered to him in every country? |
4313 | If any such connection existed, might it not help to explain Bevis''s half- heartedness? |
4313 | If it damaged his prospects and sundered him from his relatives, how could she hope that his love of her, the cause of it all, would long endure? |
4313 | If she discerned any serious change, any grave indication of disappointment-- What was her life to be? |
4313 | If she rejected his proposal of a free union, was he prepared to marry her in legal form? |
4313 | If the eagerness were simple and honest, would she not have accepted his suggestion and have gone in the morning? |
4313 | If the elder woman could fall into this degradation, might there not be possibilities in Monica''s character such as he had refused to contemplate? |
4313 | If this was to be his experience of matrimonial engagement-- What rubbish had Mary been communicating? |
4313 | If you ca n''t and wo n''t trust me, how can I possibly love you?'' |
4313 | If you would only just tell me, darling, when you were first introduced?'' |
4313 | In real life, how many men and women_ fall in love_? |
4313 | In winning her had he obtained the woman of his desire? |
4313 | Indeed, we shall both be better for the exertion of such an undertaking-- don''t you think so?'' |
4313 | Is it published?'' |
4313 | Is it the result of her being falsely accused?'' |
4313 | Is n''t Miss Nunn able to rejoin us?'' |
4313 | Is n''t he still there?'' |
4313 | Is n''t it account- book morning?'' |
4313 | Is n''t it for you to decide?'' |
4313 | Is n''t it fortunate?'' |
4313 | Is n''t it natural that Mary should repent of having been guided by you, and perhaps say rather severe things?'' |
4313 | Is n''t there anywhere you could go, and meet me afterwards?'' |
4313 | Is not this a strange, a brutal thing?'' |
4313 | Is that lady an old acquaintance?'' |
4313 | Is this the result of Mary''s talk?'' |
4313 | It is eight hundred pounds, I think? |
4313 | It is_ your_ birthday?'' |
4313 | It sounds incredible, does n''t it? |
4313 | It was n''t very cheerful, was it? |
4313 | It was time for Virginia to make herself ready, and here arose a new perturbation; what had she suitable for wear under such circumstances? |
4313 | It would be a great kindness to us--''''Does she declare that she will never return to her husband?'' |
4313 | It would be enjoyable, would n''t it?'' |
4313 | Kind of him, was n''t it? |
4313 | May I remind you that you promised me some flowers from Cheddar?'' |
4313 | Micklethwaite?'' |
4313 | Might he not reasonably count on ten or fifteen more years of activity? |
4313 | Might it not be true that he was a changed man in certain respects, and that a genuine emotion at length had control of him? |
4313 | Miss Barfoot angry with_ you_?'' |
4313 | Monica, we are not saying good- bye for ever?'' |
4313 | More decidedly one of the new women than you yourself-- isn''t she?'' |
4313 | Mr.--what was the name?'' |
4313 | My darling, how shall I ever believe it? |
4313 | My love-- what is my love? |
4313 | Need he entertain that worst of fears-- the dread that his independence might fail him, subdued by his wife''s will? |
4313 | Neither spoke until they were in the shelter of the streets; then Widdowson asked suddenly,--''Who_ is_ that person?'' |
4313 | No sitting down behind the counter, I suppose?'' |
4313 | Now if any one speaks to you about_ me_, when I have left England, will you find some nice word? |
4313 | Now it has occurred to me, Mrs. Conisbee, that-- that I would ask you whether you would have any objection to her sharing my room with me? |
4313 | Now, why did n''t you come and ask me to find you a wife? |
4313 | Now, would you have done the same, or not?'' |
4313 | Obstinate? |
4313 | Of course she has told you all about it?'' |
4313 | Of course you will let your friends make inquiries for you?'' |
4313 | Oh, and have you given notice, darling?'' |
4313 | Oh, and what did Monica decide about-- about-- really, what_ was_ I going to ask? |
4313 | Oh, but I wanted to ask you, Do you think women ought to sit in Parliament?'' |
4313 | Or so old? |
4313 | Or would his strong instinct of lordship urge him to direct his wife as a dependent, to impose upon her his own view of things? |
4313 | Or, if there are insuperable objections, why not see Miss Madden? |
4313 | Or, loving ardently, would she renounce a desired happiness from dread of female smiles and whispers? |
4313 | Ought she, did she dare, to return home at all? |
4313 | Pathetic, do n''t you think? |
4313 | Perhaps it rather upset her?'' |
4313 | Perhaps she will refuse to admit me?'' |
4313 | Perhaps you aim at an income equal to my own?'' |
4313 | Perhaps, if I went at once to Mrs. Cosgrove''s, I might be fortunate enough to find her still there?'' |
4313 | Poppleton?'' |
4313 | Poppleton?'' |
4313 | Pray, what do you wish to hear?'' |
4313 | Rather than that, would it not be preferable to break with her husband, and openly live apart from him, alone? |
4313 | Really? |
4313 | Rhoda looked into her teacup for a second or two, then said with a smile,--''You also are a reformer?'' |
4313 | Rhoda moved her eyebrows, and asked calmly,--''Are you serious?'' |
4313 | Seriously desiring her aid, he looked at her with a grave smile, and asked,--''Do you believe her capable of falling in love?'' |
4313 | Shall I ask them to try and get you a cab?'' |
4313 | Shall I run down to Sheffield to see you, or is there any chance of the holidays bringing you this way? |
4313 | Shall I tell you what happened when I went to Seascale?'' |
4313 | Shall we go quickly-- some distance, or only just a little quicker than the tide would float us?'' |
4313 | Shall we walk this way?'' |
4313 | Shall you be able to do so?'' |
4313 | Shall you not henceforth be at leisure on other days besides Sunday? |
4313 | Shall_ you_ be?'' |
4313 | She does n''t wish me to go to her?'' |
4313 | She found they had left Herne Hill; if this letter reached him, would not Edmund come and see her at her house in Wimpole Street? |
4313 | She had determined on making a confession to Rhoda; but would she benefit by it? |
4313 | She had great qualities; but was there not much in her that he must subdue, reform, if they were really to spend their lives together? |
4313 | She had lied to him so resolutely before; was she not capable of elaborate falsehood to save her reputation and protect her child? |
4313 | She had money, but how to obtain possession of it? |
4313 | She has forbidden me to say anything-- and how could I, Miss Nunn? |
4313 | She has sowed her wild oats-- why should n''t a woman as well as a man? |
4313 | She has the honesty to say what she is, but you-- Where were you yesterday when you were not at your sister''s? |
4313 | She says that she will take the pledge of total abstinence, and I encouraged her to do so; it may be some use, do n''t you think?'' |
4313 | She shunned him purposely beyond a doubt, and did not that denote a fear of him justified by her inclination? |
4313 | She wishes me to ask you--''''What?'' |
4313 | Should you fear for her prudence?'' |
4313 | Show me over the premises, will you?'' |
4313 | So you did n''t come straight home from Japan?'' |
4313 | So, if I disapprove of your becoming the kind of woman that acknowledges no law, you will cease to love me?'' |
4313 | Some day,''his voice was all but extinguished,''some day-- who knows?'' |
4313 | Some whimsey? |
4313 | Still, I hope you were not-- displeased?'' |
4313 | Still, under the circumstances-- surely she ought to return to him?'' |
4313 | Suppose he pushed his joke to the very point of asking her to marry him? |
4313 | Suppose we have that walk to- morrow? |
4313 | Supposing her incapable of bowing before him, of kissing his feet, could he not be content to make of her a loyal friend, a delightful companion? |
4313 | Tell me then-- is there at this moment any woman living who has a claim upon you-- a moral claim?'' |
4313 | Ten years hence, would she have subdued her soul to a life of weary insignificance, if not of dishonour? |
4313 | That sounds shameless to you? |
4313 | That takes one''s breath away.--Are many of the girls ladies?'' |
4313 | That''s all very well for a matter- of- fact person like cousin Mary, but_ I_ have a strong vein of poetry; you must have noticed it?'' |
4313 | The air of Walworth Road is pure and invigorating about midnight; why should the reposeful ramble be hurried by consideration for weary domestics? |
4313 | The girl brought her face near, and snarled in the true voice of the pavement--''Is it a name as you''re ashamed to let out?'' |
4313 | The music was nice, was n''t it?'' |
4313 | The perfect day-- wasn''t it?'' |
4313 | The question is-- Will you accept my word?'' |
4313 | The usual kind of drudgery, was it?'' |
4313 | Then how did you get away at last?'' |
4313 | Then you are really under the impression that there''s some one she-- prefers to her husband?'' |
4313 | Then you have heard the accusation he makes?'' |
4313 | Then-- Surely that was a knock at her door? |
4313 | This was asking much of nature and civilization; did he grossly deceive himself in thinking he had found the paragon? |
4313 | To give him the lifelong reflection that, for love of him, a woman excelled by few in qualities of brain and heart had died like a rat? |
4313 | To make it up?'' |
4313 | To steam the back of the envelope-- would it not leave marks, a rumpling or discoloration? |
4313 | To think that I missed you when you called and left that note-- for it was you yourself, was it not? |
4313 | To us, is not a woman a woman?'' |
4313 | To what end? |
4313 | To- morrow, and back on Saturday?'' |
4313 | Under cover of independent thought, of serious moral theories, did he conceal mere profligacy and heartlessness? |
4313 | Unless you have come to defend yourself against a false accusation, is there any profit in our talking of these things?'' |
4313 | Was Rhoda doing this on purpose? |
4313 | Was Rhoda generous enough to appreciate her motives? |
4313 | Was flawless faith possible to Everard Barfoot? |
4313 | Was he in truth capable of respecting her individuality? |
4313 | Was he not helping her to hate him? |
4313 | Was he worse than she had imagined? |
4313 | Was it a bad sign that he carried neither gloves nor walking- stick? |
4313 | Was it conceivable that Monica had taken advantage of the liberty he had of late allowed her? |
4313 | Was it impossible to move her as other women are moved? |
4313 | Was it not a bad beginning to rule him against his conscience? |
4313 | Was it possible that he had heard her? |
4313 | Was it possible? |
4313 | Was it too bold a thought? |
4313 | Was it when you told me you had been to hear Miss Barfoot''s lecture, and never went there at all?'' |
4313 | Was n''t Alice here?'' |
4313 | Was not her honesty, her dignity, struggling against the impulses of her heart? |
4313 | Was not that a beginning of evil augury? |
4313 | Was she capable of the love which defies all humiliation? |
4313 | Was she not an intimate friend of Miss Nunn? |
4313 | Was she not getting to be a very lax- minded girl? |
4313 | Was such revival of disheartened love a likely or a possible thing? |
4313 | Was there not terrible reason for mistrusting her? |
4313 | Was this the first time that he had come to look at the place where she lived-- possibly to spy upon her? |
4313 | Was trouble of any kind( the doctor smiled) weighing upon her? |
4313 | Was_ she_ not in danger of forgetting these watchwords, which had guided her life out of youth into maturity? |
4313 | Was_ she_ responsible for this? |
4313 | We are separated, and perhaps shall never see each other again, but may not our hearts remain for ever true? |
4313 | We fall in love it is true; but do we really deceive ourselves about the future? |
4313 | We have to ask ourselves: What course of training will wake women up, make them conscious of their souls, startle them into healthy activity?'' |
4313 | We must n''t travel together, but you shall come-- when I am settled there--''''Why ca n''t I go with you?'' |
4313 | Well, have you seen him?'' |
4313 | Well, what does the word mean? |
4313 | What I wish to know is, whether you can still employ me with any satisfaction?'' |
4313 | What are you doing here?'' |
4313 | What are you going to do, child?'' |
4313 | What became of the girl?'' |
4313 | What better opportunity, if he had not dismissed her memory from his thoughts? |
4313 | What business has he to desert his wife and children?'' |
4313 | What can be expected? |
4313 | What can possibly have happened? |
4313 | What change would you make?'' |
4313 | What contemptible woman''s folly was this? |
4313 | What could be more proper?'' |
4313 | What could he do to show how he appreciated Monica''s self- denial on his behalf? |
4313 | What could he do? |
4313 | What could he or I do but patiently give ear? |
4313 | What could possibly have been more villainous? |
4313 | What courage is needed? |
4313 | What did she mean by her message to Virginia? |
4313 | What does it mean?'' |
4313 | What earthly prospect was there of my being able to marry?'' |
4313 | What else was I to do?'' |
4313 | What has happened since we parted this morning?'' |
4313 | What has he said? |
4313 | What have we to do with other people? |
4313 | What have you to say to it?'' |
4313 | What if Mr. Barfoot happened to encounter her as she ascended the stairs? |
4313 | What if she took an interest in other men, perchance more her equals than he? |
4313 | What interest have you in learning my name?'' |
4313 | What is Mary doing at Faversham?'' |
4313 | What is it that will last? |
4313 | What is its importance to you?'' |
4313 | What is more vulgar than the ideal of novelists? |
4313 | What is the address? |
4313 | What is the sanction for this judgment?'' |
4313 | What is your word worth? |
4313 | What kind of work? |
4313 | What matter that they were alone? |
4313 | What motive could he possibly have for playing a part? |
4313 | What now? |
4313 | What other motive have you?'' |
4313 | What path of spiritual health was discoverable? |
4313 | What plans have you for to- day?'' |
4313 | What redemption could there be for her? |
4313 | What right have I to ask anything of the kind? |
4313 | What should we gain? |
4313 | What temptation? |
4313 | What the deuce do you mean? |
4313 | What was Rhoda Nunn doing? |
4313 | What was the hour? |
4313 | What woman is? |
4313 | What would become of him? |
4313 | What would become of the encouragement I am able to offer our girls?'' |
4313 | What would he do? |
4313 | What would your answer be?'' |
4313 | What wrong was she committing? |
4313 | What''s four hundred and fifty? |
4313 | What''s the matter?'' |
4313 | What, she asked herself again, would be the end of it all? |
4313 | What_ can_ you have to tell me, Monica?'' |
4313 | What_ does_ it all mean? |
4313 | What_ does_ it mean? |
4313 | What_ will_ Alice say? |
4313 | When I reach there I shall be met at the station by one of our people, and-- just think, how could we manage? |
4313 | When a few minutes had passed in silence, he asked,--''Do you feel that I am no longer quite a stranger to you, Miss Madden?'' |
4313 | When do you wish to be home?'' |
4313 | When once a woman has lied how can she ever again be believed? |
4313 | When quite close to her, he exclaimed,--''Well, Rhoda?'' |
4313 | When she was gone, Rhoda looked steadily at Barfoot, and asked--''Have you really been out of town?'' |
4313 | When they shook hands,--''You will really bring me the flowers?'' |
4313 | When would you like to have dinner?'' |
4313 | Where did you get them, I wonder?'' |
4313 | Where did you go with Mr. Bullivant this morning?'' |
4313 | Where do you come from?'' |
4313 | Where have you been all the time?'' |
4313 | Where shall I live till Tuesday?'' |
4313 | Where was her holiday to be spent? |
4313 | Where were those hours spent? |
4313 | Where were you this afternoon? |
4313 | Where were you this afternoon?'' |
4313 | Where''s Alice? |
4313 | Whether she can ever break herself of it, who knows? |
4313 | Which do you like best, the Savoy operas or the burlesques at the Gaiety?'' |
4313 | Which part of the theatre do you prefer?'' |
4313 | Which?'' |
4313 | Who else bears herself as you do-- with splendid disdain of common mortals?'' |
4313 | Who is this gentleman? |
4313 | Who knows? |
4313 | Who knows? |
4313 | Who knows?'' |
4313 | Who was the young lady you did n''t introduce me to?'' |
4313 | Why are you so unreasonable? |
4313 | Why could n''t she stay with us, and keep her liberty? |
4313 | Why did n''t he help you?'' |
4313 | Why did n''t he take a train back at once?'' |
4313 | Why did you come and interfere with me? |
4313 | Why did you ever come to such a place?'' |
4313 | Why do n''t I encourage girls to become governesses, hospital nurses, and so on? |
4313 | Why do n''t I marry? |
4313 | Why do n''t we confine ourselves to this ground? |
4313 | Why do you ask?'' |
4313 | Why do you say what you know is disagreeable to me? |
4313 | Why do you stay at such a place, Monica?'' |
4313 | Why do you tell me this?'' |
4313 | Why do you wish to know?'' |
4313 | Why does it mean disgrace?'' |
4313 | Why had she left him in despondency, in doubt whether he would ever again see her? |
4313 | Why had they not thought of this long ago? |
4313 | Why has his wife left him?'' |
4313 | Why have n''t you made another appointment? |
4313 | Why have n''t you used the opportunities that you knew I could put in your way?'' |
4313 | Why is it anti- social?'' |
4313 | Why is the man who toils more meritorious than he who enjoys? |
4313 | Why may n''t I tell you that you interest me very much, and that I am afraid to trust only to chance for another meeting? |
4313 | Why not ask her simply to be his wife, and so remove one element of difficulty from his pursuit? |
4313 | Why not take her away to some place where only foreigners and strangers would be about them? |
4313 | Why not?'' |
4313 | Why scoundrel?'' |
4313 | Why should he hide?'' |
4313 | Why should he hold by a resolve of which he did not absolutely approve the motive? |
4313 | Why should it?'' |
4313 | Why should n''t I?'' |
4313 | Why should n''t Miss Nunn and I go to the theatre?'' |
4313 | Why should she go to your rooms?'' |
4313 | Why should she live here in lodgings, when a comfortable house is at the disposal of you all? |
4313 | Why should you fancy that?'' |
4313 | Why should you say_ allow_? |
4313 | Why should you waste your time? |
4313 | Why this spirit of avarice all at once?'' |
4313 | Why was she not more politic? |
4313 | Why, Edmund? |
4313 | Why, had he not just been thinking of another woman, reflecting that she, or one like her, would have made him a more suitable wife than Monica? |
4313 | Why?'' |
4313 | Why_ would_ he attempt the impossible? |
4313 | Widdowson gazed at the pleasure- boats lying below on the strand, and said diffidently,--''Would you care to go on the river?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Widdowson?'' |
4313 | Will it bear putting into words?'' |
4313 | Will you allow me to be very frank with you?'' |
4313 | Will you allow me to call at some hour when I could speak to you in private? |
4313 | Will you allow me to keep silence about your call, Mrs. Widdowson? |
4313 | Will you allow me to meet some friend of yours whom you trust?'' |
4313 | Will you believe me?'' |
4313 | Will you come and give your help?'' |
4313 | Will you come for a drive?'' |
4313 | Will you come in?'' |
4313 | Will you give me the opportunity of making things between us more regular? |
4313 | Will you hear it as a friend? |
4313 | Will you take this chair, Mrs. Widdowson? |
4313 | Will you tell me how that unpleasantness came to an end?'' |
4313 | Will you tell me if there is anything I can say or do to make your consent possible? |
4313 | Will you tell me something about yours?'' |
4313 | Will you think quietly over it all? |
4313 | Will you write to me?'' |
4313 | With more kisses? |
4313 | With nothing but references to past employers, what can one expect? |
4313 | With salary continued? |
4313 | Wo n''t it be better in every way?'' |
4313 | Wo n''t you come for that drive with me next Sunday? |
4313 | Wo n''t you let me be of use?'' |
4313 | Wo n''t you make a sacrifice for the poor girl''s sake? |
4313 | Would Miss Barfoot be able to get back at all? |
4313 | Would he not have been a much happier man if he had married a girl distinctly his inferior in mind and station? |
4313 | Would he write again? |
4313 | Would it not be well if she spent an hour a day in sewing or fancy work? |
4313 | Would it not have been possible to gratify him, and yet to gain his consent to legal marriage? |
4313 | Would it profit her to make confession and be humbled before him? |
4313 | Would n''t you like to go to church, dear? |
4313 | Would she have the courage to urge one grave difficulty that he left aside? |
4313 | Would you be willing to make her acquaintance?'' |
4313 | Would you care to come back and dine with us at half- past seven?'' |
4313 | Would you object to my doing so in this room? |
4313 | Would you rather that I came to your lodgings or you to mine? |
4313 | Yet how did he think of that obligation? |
4313 | Yet how was she to utter this? |
4313 | Yet is n''t it your duty to live as though some hope were before you?'' |
4313 | Yet why might she not have been in Bevis''s flat when he himself was absent? |
4313 | Yet would not an offer of marriage be too commonplace? |
4313 | You admit that, I dare say?'' |
4313 | You are going to be married, Monica? |
4313 | You are going to get married?'' |
4313 | You are very friendly with me nowadays, but I suppose your estimate of my character remains very much the same as years ago?'' |
4313 | You ca n''t regard me with any respect?'' |
4313 | You ca n''t, I am sure, repent of having done me that kindness--?'' |
4313 | You deliberately intend to waste your life?'' |
4313 | You do n''t feel that my company would be enough for you?'' |
4313 | You do n''t mind the expense, do you, Edmund?'' |
4313 | You do n''t think it would make your mind easier?'' |
4313 | You go time after time to the private chambers of an unmarried man-- a man such as that-- and it means no harm?'' |
4313 | You have decided to make the change you spoke of?'' |
4313 | You have discovered what it all meant?'' |
4313 | You have n''t seen her?'' |
4313 | You have n''t seen my wife lately?'' |
4313 | You know, by- the- bye, that my relatives consider me a blackguard?'' |
4313 | You know-- of course you know what has happened?'' |
4313 | You mean, how do I propose to employ myself? |
4313 | You never suspected me of that, I dare say?'' |
4313 | You permit me to call upon you now and then?'' |
4313 | You play, I hope?'' |
4313 | You really did n''t care in the least how much I suffered?'' |
4313 | You really have n''t been yet?'' |
4313 | You remember Tennyson''s lines about the old church at Clevedon? |
4313 | You remember my mentioning in a letter his horse- accident? |
4313 | You remember?'' |
4313 | You say you have not the least love for me; if you had, should I like you to confess it instantly? |
4313 | You spoke so strangely--''''Did I? |
4313 | You will come some other afternoon?'' |
4313 | You will come?'' |
4313 | You will leave Seascale to- morrow week?'' |
4313 | You will make yourself unutterably wretched, and all for what?'' |
4313 | You will not oblige me to take all sorts of trouble merely to avoid useless and painful conversations?'' |
4313 | You will really make the attempt?'' |
4313 | You wo n''t be angry with me? |
4313 | You would n''t mind, for once? |
4313 | You, at all events, agree with me, Winifred?'' |
4313 | Your headache soon went away, I hope? |
4313 | do n''t you love me?'' |
4313 | would it be possible? |
35587 | A brain fever upon him-- delirious? |
35587 | A brother, I suppose? 35587 A coquette, I suppose?" |
35587 | A glass of whisky and water, if you please? |
35587 | A hossback? |
35587 | A letter carrier, you think? 35587 A mustang trap?" |
35587 | A mustanger? |
35587 | A separation? |
35587 | A shot? |
35587 | A slight service, you call it? 35587 A troop of their_ rangers_ scouring the country for Comanches, I suppose? |
35587 | A young lady? |
35587 | About Loo? 35587 About what?" |
35587 | Accepted, do you suppose? |
35587 | Admire them? 35587 After that?" |
35587 | After what, Mr Stump? |
35587 | Ah-- why? 35587 Ai n''t thar though?" |
35587 | Ai n''t ye riddy, surgint? |
35587 | Ai n''t yur master inside, too? 35587 Alone? |
35587 | Alone? |
35587 | Am I dead, or living? |
35587 | Am I too old? 35587 Among trees, and picturesque?" |
35587 | An American lady!--out here? 35587 An American lady?" |
35587 | An Indian trick? |
35587 | An''what shed I mean? |
35587 | An''yur young Master Henry-- air he gone too? |
35587 | And Wild Cat himself-- what of him? |
35587 | And could you have done it sooner? |
35587 | And has been very kind to Mr Maurice Gerald? |
35587 | And has n''t he done murder? |
35587 | And if I had, what would it have mattered? 35587 And if there_ was_ a quarrel,"argued the officer of infantry,"what then? |
35587 | And the body, too; where can_ it_ be? |
35587 | And the money with which you paid him? |
35587 | And the woman? |
35587 | And to stay there? |
35587 | And what for a signal? |
35587 | And what of that? 35587 And who do you suppose_ he_ is?" |
35587 | And why not now, uncle? |
35587 | And why not, Mr Stump? 35587 And why not? |
35587 | And why not? |
35587 | And why, major? |
35587 | And you are now the most skilled in all Texas? |
35587 | And you have? |
35587 | And you, sir? 35587 And you, sir?" |
35587 | And-- and-- Henry? |
35587 | Anyhow; who the devil could find his way out of an ashpit like this? 35587 Are you speaking the truth, sir? |
35587 | Are you sure, Mr Gerald, that your modesty is not prompting_ you_ to overrate your rivals? 35587 Are you sure?" |
35587 | Are your mules doing their best? |
35587 | Aristocracy? |
35587 | Arrah, now, how could I be mistaken? |
35587 | Asleep? |
35587 | At your orders, s''norita? |
35587 | At your orders, s''norita? |
35587 | Beside himself? |
35587 | Besides, his own shindy with the same man is suggestive of suspicion-- is it not? |
35587 | Besides, why had the head been cut off? 35587 Bitten you, you say-- where?" |
35587 | Burn my throat, ye say? 35587 But are you sure you can sit her over it?" |
35587 | But before your brother came upon the ground, was there not some one else in your company? |
35587 | But fwhat diz it all mane? |
35587 | But how, and why? 35587 But how-- when-- you''ve not told me?" |
35587 | But how? |
35587 | But much prettier, of course? 35587 But the mowstanger? |
35587 | But to- day-- when you left-- was there any fresh news in the Settlement? 35587 But whar''s he now? |
35587 | But what did they have a difficulty about? |
35587 | But what is it? |
35587 | But what then? 35587 But what''s cut the hole in the door, an why''s the tother broken out at the back? |
35587 | But what_ does_ it mean? 35587 But where did you see this, Mr O''Neal?" |
35587 | But where is he? |
35587 | But which woman, I wonder? 35587 But who could have betrayed us? |
35587 | But who could have fired it? 35587 But who?--what others?" |
35587 | But whom? |
35587 | But why should the stranger have deceived us? |
35587 | But why, senor? 35587 But why, sir?" |
35587 | But you are sure, sir, he is not badly injured? 35587 But your father? |
35587 | But, Captain Calhoun,protested the overseer, in response to the gentleman who had reproached him in such chaste terms;"how air we to find the way?" |
35587 | But, Cassius: if we should lose our way? |
35587 | But, Miss Poindexter,stammered the guide, still doubting the powers of the spotted mustang,"suppose she can not? |
35587 | But, Misther Stump, did n''t yez till me to do it? 35587 But, Mr Gerald; why should we not ride off at once, in the opposite direction?" |
35587 | But, senor; surely I can see him? |
35587 | But,said he, after a speechless pause,"you do n''t mean to say that you could have controlled-- that the mustang was not running away with you? |
35587 | But-- but, how came_ you_ to be here? |
35587 | By what authority do you command me? 35587 By whom fired, do you think?" |
35587 | By whom? |
35587 | Can you speak French, mademoiselle? |
35587 | Can_ you_ tell us, miss? |
35587 | Come, Zeb; what''s the use of talking about my going back by myself? 35587 Cyan_ you_ give them, Misther Cashius Calhoun?" |
35587 | Dan Marryshow, yez say? 35587 Dead?" |
35587 | Did n''t I see Masther Maurice, as plain as I see yourself at this minnit? 35587 Did n''t yez heear somethin''? |
35587 | Did you follow us any farther? |
35587 | Did you know the man? |
35587 | Did you notice Calhoun as he came back? |
35587 | Did you notice whether repeated strokes had been given? 35587 Did_ you_ leap it?" |
35587 | Div yez think they waren''t Indyins, afther all? |
35587 | Div yez? 35587 Do n''t ye see that the shod tracks air kivered by them o''the maars? |
35587 | Do you intend us to start now? |
35587 | Do you mean this, Maurice Gerald? 35587 Do you remember her name?" |
35587 | Do you suppose it likely that there''s one of them would condescend to speak to the person you''ve named? |
35587 | Do you think it''s an Indian in disguise? |
35587 | Do you think she can do it? |
35587 | Do you wish me, Maurice? |
35587 | Does n''t that bate Banagher? |
35587 | Dreaming, or awake? 35587 Durn it, then, who ked a tuk him out? |
35587 | Durn you, nigger, do n''t ye remember me? 35587 Except the mansion?" |
35587 | Except the-- the--"Exceptin''the man- wuman, ye mane? |
35587 | Fwhare''s the tother-- the young chap, or lady, or wuman-- whichsomiver she art? 35587 Fwhat is it, Gertrude?" |
35587 | Fwhat rayzun? 35587 Going out for a ride, Louise?" |
35587 | Good day, Miss Poindexter? |
35587 | Had we not better silence_ him_? |
35587 | Had you any suspicion why, or by whom, the foul deed had been done? |
35587 | Hain''t I, though? |
35587 | Have I done so? |
35587 | Have they any other weapons? |
35587 | Have you come direct from there? |
35587 | Have you met, or seen, any one, miss-- out here, I mean? |
35587 | He did look rather unhappy,replied the major;"but surely, Captain Sloman, you do n''t attribute it to--?" |
35587 | He has been here, then? |
35587 | He has recovered from his wounds? |
35587 | He is ill? 35587 He may be dangerously wounded-- perhaps even to death?" |
35587 | He moutn''t have the mateerils riddy? 35587 He must be dead not to have heard us?" |
35587 | He''s coming this way, is he not? |
35587 | His horse at the gate? 35587 His name?" |
35587 | How are we to get him back? 35587 How can you tell that?" |
35587 | How could I help it? |
35587 | How do you know they have escaped it? |
35587 | How is Phaylum Onale to know that? 35587 How long ago was that?" |
35587 | How long have I been lying here? 35587 How long? |
35587 | How long? |
35587 | How should I know, cousin Cash? 35587 How should I know?" |
35587 | How was that? |
35587 | How, sir? |
35587 | I hope, sir, you will favour us with your name? |
35587 | I ought to have asked him his name? |
35587 | I suppose you are determined upon fighting? |
35587 | I wonder if I could ever learn to fling it? |
35587 | I wonder if coaxing would do any good? |
35587 | I wonder what puts such nonsense into my head? |
35587 | I wonder who''s brought the beast here? |
35587 | I wonder,muttered he, on re- entering the_ patio_,"whether the blubbering baby be in earnest? |
35587 | I? 35587 If I killed her, what would it avail? |
35587 | If a contrivance, why and to what end? 35587 If the lady be as attractive as you say, I suppose we''ll have Captain Cassius out here also, before long?" |
35587 | Impossible? |
35587 | In that case, ye know whar ye air? |
35587 | In what way can it concern you, Don Miguel Diaz? |
35587 | In what way? |
35587 | In your opinion, was the shot sufficient to have caused death, without the mutilation that, you think, must have been done afterwards? |
35587 | Is he asleep? |
35587 | Is he at home? 35587 Is it modesty?" |
35587 | Is that renegade Indian to be trusted, who appears to be as much an enemy to the whites as to the people of his own race? |
35587 | Is that the danger of which you have been speaking? |
35587 | Is that why the guards have been doubled? 35587 Is the major sure of the Indians being up? |
35587 | Is there a danger? |
35587 | Is there no chance of escape? |
35587 | Is there no chance of shaking him off? 35587 Isidora?" |
35587 | It appears to be a man? 35587 It frightened the others off, you think, and they followed no further?" |
35587 | It might be somebody I would n''t care to encounter? 35587 It might be-- who knows?" |
35587 | It mout be a man? |
35587 | It was the same, then, who visited the jacale at night-- the same Phalim saw? |
35587 | It will kill me, if I stay here? |
35587 | It_ should_ be somethin''of that kind: for what else_ can_ it be? 35587 Judging by your frankness, Miss Poindexter, you will not refuse to inform the Court who that person was?" |
35587 | Kicked? |
35587 | Let me hear it? 35587 Let me look at that card, Henry?" |
35587 | Like?--like? |
35587 | Louises what means this? 35587 Mass Poindex''er, sar? |
35587 | Mass''Tump, you it hab mix wif water? |
35587 | May I ask if this meeting was accidental, or by appointment? |
35587 | May I ask the name of the individual? |
35587 | May I ask where you live? |
35587 | May I ask, if on that night you went into the garden? |
35587 | Maybe the sound of a man''s voice would bring the animal to a stand? 35587 Me pay?" |
35587 | Monongahela? 35587 Mr Poindexter, you mean?" |
35587 | My horse? |
35587 | Na, now; you know what dis chile mean? |
35587 | Name? 35587 Need I tell you that I took that hand? |
35587 | Neither of you can object? |
35587 | No use waiting for that beauty to go to bed? 35587 No, kan''t ye? |
35587 | Now dear old Zeb, you will take this to Mr Gerald? 35587 O''what night air ye palaverin'', Plute?" |
35587 | Odd he should always make back there? |
35587 | Of her, and him? 35587 Of what young fellow do you speak?" |
35587 | Of what, sir? |
35587 | Of whom are you speaking? |
35587 | Of whom do you speak? 35587 Oh, Mr Zebulon Stump, is it you?" |
35587 | Oh; some vaqueros have seen it? |
35587 | On foot, Mr Stump, as usual? |
35587 | On horseback, then? |
35587 | On second thoughts-- perhaps-- better not have him taken? 35587 On the Rio Grande, senor?" |
35587 | On what charge? |
35587 | On your hospitality, perhaps? 35587 Only Phelim you expect to meet? |
35587 | Or is this man mocking me? 35587 Part of it there was some one with you?" |
35587 | Perhaps he is not well waited upon? 35587 Perhaps you are anxious to get back to your party?" |
35587 | Perhaps you will be good enough to inform the Court at what hour? |
35587 | Perhaps,said he,"I might manage to hobble a bit, if I only had a crutch? |
35587 | Poindexter? |
35587 | Prandy und pitters, you calls for, Mishter Calhoun? |
35587 | Prom whom? |
35587 | Ready for what? |
35587 | Save you from what? |
35587 | She''s outside, you say? 35587 Should we not be trespassing on the patience of your people?" |
35587 | Sign? |
35587 | Size? |
35587 | So soon? 35587 Some decoy to draw us into an ambuscade?" |
35587 | Some other danger? 35587 Standing solitary?" |
35587 | Surely I can see him? |
35587 | Surely he is not abed till this hour? 35587 Surely it ca n''t be that? |
35587 | Surely you are jesting, Mr Stump? |
35587 | Surely,said Poindexter, after making an examination of the captured mustang,"this must be the animal of which old Zeb Stump has been telling me?" |
35587 | Tell me, dear Zeb,said she, after directing her maid to withdraw,"why have they arrested this Mexican-- Miguel Diaz I mean? |
35587 | The Lafourche ball? 35587 The aristocratic father, then? |
35587 | The colour? |
35587 | The other? |
35587 | The other? |
35587 | The others? |
35587 | The same? 35587 Then you think the fellow may have killed Poindexter in a fair fight?" |
35587 | Then you''ve come from his place, direct? 35587 Then, no doubt, you have heard that there has been a-- murder-- committed?" |
35587 | There can be no harm in our seeing how the_ Irlandes_ has housed himself out here? |
35587 | There have been Indians, then? |
35587 | There was a reconciliation, then? |
35587 | There''s too many of them fellows coming after-- some that can track, too? 35587 They appear to have made a circuit, and come round again?" |
35587 | They may have crossed at some other place, and continued the pursuit? |
35587 | Three or four mile? 35587 Thur air sommeat amiss? |
35587 | Thur''s jest a posserbillity the skunk mout sneak out i''the night? |
35587 | To whom does it belong-- this_ jacale_? |
35587 | To whom? |
35587 | Trath, yez may;--but how Misther Stump? 35587 Two-- who were they?" |
35587 | Unpleasant news, papa? |
35587 | Upon what? |
35587 | Wal, ye see thet ere prickly cacktis plant growin''cloast to the edge o''the openin''? |
35587 | Wal-- don''t ye see they air kivered wi''them o''the mowstanger''s hoss? |
35587 | Wal; do you remember ever to hev seed it afore? 35587 Was he still in the same temper? |
35587 | Was it a clean out-- as if done by a sharp- edged weapon? |
35587 | Was it she who has done this? |
35587 | Was there a snake at all? |
35587 | Waterspouts? |
35587 | We had better go inside, and make sure? |
35587 | We keep our distance, do n''t we? |
35587 | Well, Spangler, my good fellow; what do you make of it? |
35587 | Well, that-- some of the boys here think there''s been a struggle between him and--"Atween him an who? |
35587 | Well; since you think me so worthless, it wo n''t, I suppose, better your opinion of me, when I tell you what I''m going to do with you? |
35587 | Were you alone? |
35587 | Wha night? 35587 Whar?" |
35587 | What am I to do? 35587 What are we to do?" |
35587 | What are we to do? |
35587 | What are we to do? |
35587 | What can it mean? |
35587 | What can papa have heard? 35587 What can the major have written to him? |
35587 | What can the man be after? |
35587 | What can the masther mane? 35587 What d''ye call this?" |
35587 | What did you do, after making the observations you have described? |
35587 | What did you hear, Mr Calhoun? |
35587 | What div I mane? 35587 What do the fellows mean by their gibberish?" |
35587 | What do ye call this? |
35587 | What do you mean by that? |
35587 | What do you mean, Mr Stump? |
35587 | What do you mean, girl? |
35587 | What do you want, Pluto? |
35587 | What does it all mean? |
35587 | What dress? |
35587 | What durned tom- foolery''s this, boys? |
35587 | What evidence of the generosity you are so good as to ascribe to me? |
35587 | What facts? |
35587 | What fear of them? 35587 What fellur air ye talkin''o''? |
35587 | What game? |
35587 | What have I done? 35587 What have you done with it, sirrah?" |
35587 | What have you seen, that you talk so loudly? |
35587 | What hev ye been hearin''? |
35587 | What hoss? |
35587 | What if I lose sight of her? 35587 What insinuation, sir?" |
35587 | What is causing the commotion? |
35587 | What is it for? |
35587 | What is it, Cash? |
35587 | What is it, Crespino? |
35587 | What is it, Loo? |
35587 | What is it, Mr Sansom? |
35587 | What is it, Pheelum? 35587 What is it, anyhow?" |
35587 | What is it, father? |
35587 | What is it, you confounded fellow? |
35587 | What is it? |
35587 | What is it? |
35587 | What is it? |
35587 | What is it? |
35587 | What is it? |
35587 | What is that? 35587 What is the woman going to do?" |
35587 | What is to be done? |
35587 | What makes her a_ maar_? 35587 What makes ye think he travelled two hunder mile?" |
35587 | What man? 35587 What mattered that? |
35587 | What matters it, if we know he''s guilty? 35587 What matters that? |
35587 | What mean you, Cash? |
35587 | What means this, Don Miguel Diaz? |
35587 | What means this? |
35587 | What means those things I''ve heard-- myself seen? 35587 What news?" |
35587 | What of all that? |
35587 | What of yourself? |
35587 | What proof have you of what you say? 35587 What proof?" |
35587 | What reason did he give for saying that I should pay? 35587 What reason have you to think they were Mexicans?" |
35587 | What sort of a lady? |
35587 | What sort of weapon would you say? |
35587 | What sum? |
35587 | What the deuce is the matter with your heels-- to- day of all others? 35587 What the devil are you talking about? |
35587 | What the devil can that mean? |
35587 | What the devil has got into you, Phelim? 35587 What then?" |
35587 | What varmints, Misther Stump? 35587 What war it?" |
35587 | What would you do for_ him_? |
35587 | What young fellow? |
35587 | What''s a pity? |
35587 | What''s been a doin''hyur? 35587 What''s that you''ve been saying? |
35587 | What''s the use, Sam Manly? 35587 What''s to be did? |
35587 | What''s to be done? 35587 What''s up anyhow? |
35587 | What''s your explanation, Mr Stump? |
35587 | What, then? |
35587 | What? |
35587 | What_ do_ you make of it, gentlemen? |
35587 | What_ kin_ it be? |
35587 | When is it to take place? |
35587 | Where are you going? |
35587 | Where can the boy be? |
35587 | Where did it take place? |
35587 | Where did you meet the lady you speak of? |
35587 | Where is he? |
35587 | Where is it? 35587 Where is my horse?" |
35587 | Where is she? |
35587 | Where is the horse? 35587 Where were you, Miss Poindexter, on the night when your brother was last seen?" |
35587 | Where, Henry-- where? |
35587 | Where? 35587 Where?" |
35587 | Where? |
35587 | Whet sort o''a mustang? |
35587 | Which on''em shed I foller fust? 35587 Which way was she going? |
35587 | Which? 35587 Who can that woman be?" |
35587 | Who cares whether Mr Cassius Calhoun be a dangerous man, or a harmless one? 35587 Who could have helped liking him? |
35587 | Who did you then think it might be? |
35587 | Who does the shoein''o''yur cattle? 35587 Who ever heard of Comanches playing cards?" |
35587 | Who had him out thet night? |
35587 | Who has been heeur? |
35587 | Who has been here since then? |
35587 | Who knows but the cause of quarrel-- if there''s been one-- might not be this splendid senorita so much talked about? 35587 Who knows?" |
35587 | Who then ked it be; unless it war the owner o''the hoss hisself? 35587 Who wants me?" |
35587 | Who war it, then? 35587 Who''s inside the shanty?" |
35587 | Who''s insoide? 35587 Who, then, is the black beast, or what is it-- if not a human?" |
35587 | Who? 35587 Who? |

35587 | Who? |
35587 | Who_ can_ she be? |

35587 | Why do ye weesh that? 35587 Why do you ask that, Loo? |
35587 | Why do you ask the question, Louise? |
35587 | Why do you think so, papa? 35587 Why do you think that?" |
35587 | Why have you brought it forth? |
35587 | Why have you thus armed yourself? |
35587 | Why not? |
35587 | Why should I not do the same with the body of Henry Poindexter? 35587 Why should I? |
35587 | Why should I? 35587 Why the hell do n''t you haul?" |
35587 | Why you be go''way in dat big hurry? 35587 Why, Major Ringwood? |

35587 | Yes; how was she dressed? |
35587 | Yez be goin''there, masther Maurice? 35587 Yez do n''t? |
35587 | You admire these wild scenes, Miss Poindexter? |
35587 | You appear impatient to go forward? 35587 You are jesting, Don Miguel?" |
35587 | You are perhaps not aware, Mr Stump,rejoins the Regulator Chief, in a calm voice,"of what we''ve just been hearing?" |
35587 | You are sure he is dead, then? |
35587 | You are sure of it? |
35587 | You changed your mind about its being Indians? |
35587 | You do n''t know her? 35587 You do n''t suppose they leaped it?" |
35587 | You do n''t tink, Pluto, he been gone kill Massa Henry? |
35587 | You expect to be pursued? |
35587 | You hain''t seed nuthin''o''the young lady, hev ye, Mister Calhoun? |
35587 | You have been to his room? |
35587 | You have one? |
35587 | You know my reasons, nephew? |
35587 | You know the old hacienda has a flat roof, I suppose? 35587 You know the spot of open ground at the top of the hill-- where the three roads meet?" |
35587 | You mean the place where some blood was found? |
35587 | You mean the storm of that name? |
35587 | You mean to say my daughter has been here? |
35587 | You meant--? |
35587 | You must ha''been dreemin? |
35587 | You never hunt on horseback, I believe? |
35587 | You promise it? |
35587 | You said you could easily do it, if there was any Indian trouble going on? |
35587 | You saw me, then? |
35587 | You saw the body? |
35587 | You saw the chase then? |
35587 | You say none ob dem gen''l''m you care for? 35587 You see that, major?" |
35587 | You see, gentlemen, the ball is still in the animal''s body? 35587 You think that he and my cousin crossed here together?" |
35587 | You think you might discover some traces? |
35587 | You think, with my hair upon your head, you would be invincible among the men? |
35587 | You use it with great skill? 35587 You wanted to be alone?" |
35587 | You will not marry me then? |
35587 | You will not refuse me now? |
35587 | You wish me to speak further? |
35587 | You''ll admit,rejoined Crossman, of the Rifles,"that the circumstances are strong against him? |
35587 | You''ll have something to eat? 35587 You''re not afraid, ai n''t you?" |
35587 | You''ve lost the way, Cash? |
35587 | You''ve lost the way, nephew? |
35587 | You, major? |
35587 | You,_ alannah_? 35587 You?" |
35587 | You? |
35587 | You_ air_ in a hurry? 35587 Your father may be alarmed by your long absence? |
35587 | Your fellow tenant of the jacale might not like being intruded upon by visitors-- more especially a stranger? |
35587 | Your foster- brother? |
35587 | Yur good to keep a seecret, Maje? 35587 _ Have you anything to say why sentence of death should not be pronounced upon you_?" |
35587 | _ Is_ it the masther? 35587 _ Quien sabe_?" |
35587 | _ Quien sabe_? |
35587 | _ Quien sale_? 35587 _ Si, senor-- si_--yes, of Don Mauricio Zyerral, this the-- house?" |
35587 | ` Yis''again? 35587 ''Tain''t so durnation eezy to kill turkey gobbler arter sun- up, wi''a clamjamferry like this comin''clost upon a fellur''s heels? 35587 ''Tis the third time I''ve seen her passing within this week? 35587 ''Twas a trick got up to try us!--perhaps himself in sight, a witness of our disgraceful flight? 35587 ''tain''t Mass''Tump--''t use to fotch de ven''son an de turkey gobbla to de ole plantashun? 35587 A real rude hut, you say? |
35587 | A simple promise would scarce be sufficient in a crisis like that? |
35587 | A solicitude like that shown for him by the Mexican senora, could scarce spring from simple friendship? |
35587 | A thief?" |
35587 | After all he might have been misinformed? |
35587 | After all, what can Zeb Stump say, or do? |
35587 | After that, where should the assassins be sought for? |
35587 | Ah, then; what would life be to me? |
35587 | Air ye in airnest, nigger?" |
35587 | Alone?" |
35587 | Am I right, senora? |
35587 | Am I to be turned adrift upon the prairie, or shut up in a convent? |
35587 | Am I to take it as a type of this still untraced destiny?" |
35587 | Am I to tell the old gentleman what I think o''t?" |
35587 | Am I to tell_ him_?" |
35587 | An fwhat''s afther them? |
35587 | An fwhere is she now?" |
35587 | An unexpected sight: who could have looked for human being in such a place? |
35587 | An''fwhat div yez think I''ve heerd Owld Duffer talkin''about below?" |
35587 | An''now, as ye know it, what air to hinder you from ridin''past it agin; and follering the trail o''the maars back''ard? |
35587 | An''supposin''I wuz to say yis, fwhat ud yez be afther wantin''wid him?" |
35587 | An''where cyan the masther be, if it was n''t him? |
35587 | An''why air the big gate shet an barred-- in the middle o''breakfist time? |
35587 | An''why shed he have dud it? |
35587 | An''yit, who knows? |
35587 | And after all, there may be nothing to be known? |
35587 | And did n''t he forget to take it? |
35587 | And the woman-- this Mexican-- Isidora? |
35587 | And then what must follow? |
35587 | And then-- what then? |
35587 | And this you call justice? |
35587 | And were you able to tell by that?" |
35587 | And where, and when, did you hear it?" |
35587 | And where, may I ask?" |
35587 | And who could this man be? |
35587 | And why not?" |
35587 | And why should she have interposed to save him-- him, the murderer of my son-- her own brother? |
35587 | And why this?" |
35587 | And why was she riding at such a perilous pace? |
35587 | And why, pray, do you grieve about that?" |
35587 | And why? |
35587 | And will God permit this red- handed ruffian to escape? |
35587 | Another letter?" |
35587 | Anywhere near where we''ve been to- day?" |
35587 | Are his wounds of a dangerous nature?" |
35587 | Are not the Comanches_ en paz_ at present? |
35587 | Are they still continuing on? |
35587 | Are they to be pursued? |
35587 | Are ye ready?" |
35587 | Are ye riddy?" |
35587 | Are you desirous of hearing them?" |
35587 | Arrah now me honey; fwhat ud be the use av consalin''it? |
35587 | Arrah, now, fhwat''s the use av yer stayin''here, wastin''the best part av yer days in doin''nothin''? |
35587 | Arrah, now;_ you_ would n''t be afther havin''a little flask upon yer sweet silf? |
35587 | At this hour? |
35587 | At this season they herd together, and keep apart from the horses; unless when--""When what?" |
35587 | Av coorse they hav, else fwhy is it not in its place? |
35587 | Being up there, how could I avoid seeing you as you passed-- that is, so long as you were not under_ the shade of the acacias_?" |
35587 | Besides fwhat ud be the use? |
35587 | Besides, it wudn''t be raal honest av me to take it widout lave-- wud it, Tara?" |
35587 | Besides, what can I say myself-- the only witness? |
35587 | But did you follow them to-- to-- how far did you follow them?" |
35587 | But did you say you have heard of the animal-- I mean since you left us?" |
35587 | But how did you know of this place? |
35587 | But if he_ should_ come at that time,_ you_ detain him-- won''t you?" |
35587 | But tell me what has caused it? |
35587 | But the man-- the rider? |
35587 | But the man-- what was he doing? |
35587 | But the mare? |
35587 | But to what end? |
35587 | But to what purpose? |
35587 | But true: I think I''ve heard you say you prefer that sort of thing?" |
35587 | But what could that thing have meant? |
35587 | But what of that? |
35587 | But what signify ten miles? |
35587 | But what were you going to say? |
35587 | But what would you have me do?" |
35587 | But when? |
35587 | But who air the young gen''leman yur speakin''o''? |
35587 | But who could have done it? |
35587 | But who do ye_ think_ it war? |
35587 | But who is the lucky individual who accomplished the capture?" |
35587 | But why is Louise Poindexter there-- alone-- unaccompanied by white or black, by relative or slave? |
35587 | But why is he still absent? |
35587 | But why shed it temp him to the killin''o''her brother? |
35587 | But why should Henry Poindexter have been excited too? |
35587 | But your mount? |
35587 | But, Miss Poindexter, may I ask how you knew that I have been this way at all?" |
35587 | By keeping to the former, he might find out much; but by changing to the latter he might learn more? |
35587 | By my faith, I''m in a serious scrape? |
35587 | By whom?" |
35587 | Can I?" |
35587 | Can any one have told him? |
35587 | Can any one suggest what it is to be?" |
35587 | Can it be that she is taken? |
35587 | Can it be the red- skinned marauders? |
35587 | Can it be, that she has been overtaken and captured? |
35587 | Can the charge be true? |
35587 | Can we do nothing to avoid it?" |
35587 | Can we do so?" |
35587 | Can you explain, Louise?" |
35587 | Clinging to her tail? |
35587 | Could it be Louise Poindexter? |
35587 | Could it be the young Creole-- the cousin of his direst enemy as well as his reputed sweetheart? |
35587 | Could the lady have ridden out to meet him, or Maurice gone in? |
35587 | Could there be a doubt of it? |
35587 | D''you s''pose any man o''sense believes in sech varmint as them? |
35587 | Dan Marryshow? |
35587 | Daylight? |
35587 | De ole massr, or de young''un?" |
35587 | Dear Zeb, you promise me?" |
35587 | Did I not tell you to go home? |
35587 | Did any one know where the horse- hunter had his home? |
35587 | Did he tell ye o''nothin''else he seed hyur?" |
35587 | Did he wish to show his zeal by going alone? |
35587 | Did n''t I cut the pisen out, soon''s I killed the critter, by cuttin''off o''its head?" |
35587 | Did n''t I fill it for Masther Maurice to take wid him the last time he went to the sittlements? |
35587 | Did n''t I tell yez there was another snake? |
35587 | Did n''t yez save her life into the bargain?" |
35587 | Did n''t yez see nothin''av a wuman, Miss Pointdixther?" |
35587 | Did some one say, name? |
35587 | Did you ever see anything so beautiful as she is, Phelim-- I mean in the way of horseflesh?" |
35587 | Did you hear him state any?" |
35587 | Did you?" |
35587 | Did your vaqueros get close enough to know what it was?" |
35587 | Div yez mane a rattle- snake?" |
35587 | Div yez mane is for the same now? |
35587 | Div yez mane that it''s dangerous?" |
35587 | Do n''t I till ye that the masther''s in bid?" |
35587 | Do n''t ye see them thur bruises on the grass?" |
35587 | Do n''t ye see thur toe- marks, both on this side an the t''other? |
35587 | Do n''t yez think so, Tara?" |
35587 | Do n''t yez, misthress?" |
35587 | Do n''t you see a coal- black cloud spreading over the sky? |
35587 | Do n''t you think so, Miss Poindexter?" |
35587 | Do not tell me that he is ill?" |
35587 | Do you expect to meet any one there?" |
35587 | Do you know if she has often visited him?" |
35587 | Do you know that we''ve been chased by a drove of wild steeds, and had actually to ride for our lives?" |
35587 | Do you mean it?" |
35587 | Do you mean to say that the despatch- rider-- if he be one-- is leading us into-- into an ambuscade?" |
35587 | Do you not know me? |
35587 | Do you see anything there?" |
35587 | Do you speak the truth,_ nor capitan_?" |
35587 | Do you think she can carry you over--""Over what, sir?" |
35587 | Do you wish me to intercede, and make up your quarrel with Pluto?" |
35587 | Do you?" |
35587 | Does he knew that we have met?" |
35587 | Drunk, or dreaming? |
35587 | Entiende, V_?" |
35587 | Even if going in the direction of the doubtful streamlet, he might never succeed in reaching it? |
35587 | Even if he should not succeed in concealing himself within the thicket, who is there to overtake him? |
35587 | Father of fifty years old, why reason in this foolish fashion? |
35587 | Fetch them to your feet? |
35587 | Fetch whom?" |
35587 | Fo what you ask, Mass Tump?" |
35587 | For the latter, who ever really loved that cared a straw for class, or caste? |
35587 | For what div yez want me to do that?" |
35587 | For what do you ask forgiveness?" |
35587 | For what purpose? |
35587 | For what reason should the young fellow be leading us astray?" |
35587 | For what reason?" |
35587 | For what reezun? |
35587 | For what, nephew?" |
35587 | For what?" |
35587 | For what?" |
35587 | Freshly killed, he appears? |
35587 | Further proofs?" |
35587 | Fust place what do ye make o''the young fellur bein''wownded hisself? |
35587 | Ghost it could not be; flesh and bones I grasped myself; so did Vicente on the other side? |
35587 | Go to slape agane? |
35587 | Gone, yez say? |
35587 | Gratitude do n''t get out of its bed in the middle of the night-- to keep appointments at the bottom of a garden? |
35587 | Grief-- fear-- jealousy-- what must be the state of the soul in which these emotions are co- existent? |
35587 | Had he been only restrained by the presence of his sister from attacking me? |
35587 | Had she grown fonder of the society of her Texan relatives-- fonder as they grew older? |
35587 | Had they killed one another? |
35587 | Hain''t ye seed thet afore, ye greenhorn? |
35587 | Hain''t yo forgot to fetch yur head wi ye?" |
35587 | Has any one else been to this place?" |
35587 | Has he taken advantage of your-- your-- unfortunate passion?" |
35587 | Has it bitten him?" |
35587 | Has it left any, I wonder?" |
35587 | Has met with some misfortune? |
35587 | Has she who addressed it succumbed to the pursuer? |
35587 | Has some other had the offer, and earned the thousand dollars? |
35587 | Has the whole day been a dream? |
35587 | Has there been a quarrel with any one?" |
35587 | Have I spoken like one who jests?" |
35587 | Have a little sugar, or honey, along with it?" |
35587 | Have n''t you met a woman astride a grey horse?" |
35587 | Have you any names here? |
35587 | Have you ever been in a hunting- field, at home, with riding habits trailing the sward, and plumed hats proudly nodding around you? |
35587 | Have you got any?" |
35587 | Have you heard anything of the pretty creature?" |
35587 | Have you heard anything, miss?" |
35587 | Have you made any discovery in this queer affair? |
35587 | Have you nothing more to communicate?" |
35587 | Have you seen a ghost?" |
35587 | Have_ you_ a house?" |
35587 | He could not be sure of their not burning his fingers-- those queer cards? |
35587 | He is riding at the rate of twenty to the hour; and in half an hour he may find shelter in the chapparal? |
35587 | He looks as if you had been riding a long race-- like ourselves?" |
35587 | He may be in some poor place-- perhaps uncourteously treated-- perhaps neglected? |
35587 | He may have ridden out again? |
35587 | He may not come? |
35587 | He may not have any delicacies-- such as an invalid stands in need of? |
35587 | He might capture the Headless Horseman, and ascertain from_ him_ the why and wherefore of his wild wanderings? |
35587 | He might not be going in the right direction? |
35587 | He rud out somewhar, and the hoss kim back''ithout him? |
35587 | He s a snake bit ye?" |
35587 | He saw me in company with-- Can it be that? |
35587 | He sed, that his life moight depend upon it? |
35587 | He sees them; but what of that? |
35587 | He''s at home, ai n''t he?" |
35587 | He''s near enough for your_ escopette_, is he not?" |
35587 | He''s only the girl''s cousin, you say?" |
35587 | He_ is_ in earnest, else why that row in the stable? |
35587 | He_ may_ be in his room? |
35587 | Henry thrown from his horse? |
35587 | Her beauty may have lost some of its bloom?" |
35587 | Her father-- can he? |
35587 | Her name is--""Is?" |
35587 | Here goes?" |
35587 | Hev they gone that way agin?" |
35587 | His case might not be so hopeless? |
35587 | His fingers were fearfully lacerated in the act; but what mattered that, when weighed against the life of his beloved master? |
35587 | His head cut off?" |
35587 | His rival will soon be no more; but what matters it? |
35587 | His wounds-- they are not dangerous?" |
35587 | His''n I serpose? |
35587 | Hiv yez any about ye?" |
35587 | How air it to be done? |
35587 | How am I to git his feet up?" |
35587 | How am I to lit yez know, if you''re beyant hearin''av me voice? |
35587 | How are they to find their way? |
35587 | How are we to live, if the gun goes?" |
35587 | How came I into it? |
35587 | How came the cousin of Louise Poindexter to be astir at that late hour of the night, or, as it was now, the earliest of the morning? |
35587 | How come you to be here? |
35587 | How could I have remained in ignorance of it? |
35587 | How could it be otherwise, with such a sorrow at her heart? |
35587 | How do you live? |
35587 | How fur d''ye reck''n?" |
35587 | How had El Coyote got hold of it? |
35587 | How is he? |
35587 | How is she to know that their intent is not hostile? |
35587 | How long do it take him to put on a kupple?" |
35587 | How long since I saw it first? |
35587 | How long was it to continue? |
35587 | How long''s it since he shod any o''yourn?" |
35587 | How much did Don Miguel pay you for your treason?" |
35587 | How on earth can you know all that?" |
35587 | How shall I explain it? |
35587 | How the hell could they have come into the possession of the other?" |
35587 | How then should he have prepared such an infernal surprise? |
35587 | How thin?" |
35587 | How was it to terminate? |
35587 | How was the engagement to be given? |
35587 | How, Zeb?" |
35587 | How, Zeb?" |
35587 | How? |
35587 | How?" |
35587 | I can speak to you in Spanish, if you prefer it; but I dare say you will understand me better in English: which, I presume, is your native tongue?" |
35587 | I do n''t see him nowhar''beout the premises; an I reck''n he ai n''t rud out, seein''as the sorrel''s hyur?" |
35587 | I fear you are taking leave of your senses, or have left them behind you in Louisiana? |
35587 | I have no longer a son?" |
35587 | I hope there''s nothing--""The matther wid him, yez wur goin''to say? |
35587 | I hope they hain''t--""Have n''t what?" |
35587 | I hope thur hain''t nuthin''gone astray?" |
35587 | I know not how I shall ever be able to reciprocate your kindness?" |
35587 | I know the worthless wretch that''s driven you to this denial--""Who?" |
35587 | I liked him from the first-- you know I did? |
35587 | I mean it-- before this time_ to- morrow_, you shall stand in the witness- box?" |
35587 | I must have been aslape, an dhramin? |
35587 | I never told you I did-- did I?" |
35587 | I presume I have guessed aright: you meant the Indians?" |
35587 | I reckon we can cross a piece of scorched prairie, without wheel- marks to guide us? |
35587 | I said brown sherry, did n''t I?" |
35587 | I suppose a man must n''t fight, however much aggrieved, without first obtaining a licence from Major Ringwood? |
35587 | I suppose the horse has his head upon him? |
35587 | I suppose there is a question about that?" |
35587 | I suppose we can travel over a black prairie, as safely as a green one? |
35587 | I suppose you understand me?" |
35587 | I think I saw a jar inside, that''s intended to go?" |
35587 | I think you said you would prefer whisky?" |
35587 | I was beginning to be alarmed about--""About what, sir?" |
35587 | I wonder if he hev left any o''the licker? |
35587 | I wonder what has become of Zeb Stump?" |
35587 | I wondher now if them Indyins has come acrass av the dimmyjan? |
35587 | I''ve been told that the Mexicans commence almost in childhood; that that is why they attain to such wonderful skill?" |
35587 | If I kill him? |
35587 | If he could but overhear what they were saying? |
35587 | If it be he, why should he be going that way?" |
35587 | If not she, who else could it be? |
35587 | If not, what was her motive? |
35587 | If not, what was it? |
35587 | If she has caused humiliation to the woman she hates, along with it she may have brought ruin upon the man whom she loves? |
35587 | If the former, was Don Silvio aware of it? |
35587 | If the latter, was he at home-- an approving party to the assignation? |
35587 | If there has, owld dog, fwhat''ud become av you an me? |
35587 | If there was that--""You have not heard the news, then?" |
35587 | If there''s anything asthray wid me imaginashun, fhwat is it that''s gone wrong wid your own? |
35587 | If these_ men_--_Los Reguladores_--the dreaded judges I''ve heard of-- if they should find him guilty, where may it end? |
35587 | If you have any doubts, had you not better abandon her? |
35587 | In all likelihood it stayed not where it was sent, but was lost in the secret recesses of the chapparal? |
35587 | In coorse he hated yur cousin Cash-- an who does n''t, I shed like to know? |
35587 | In doubt she advanced to address him:"I may have made a mistake?" |
35587 | In either case, it might be days before he could use the limb; and what, meanwhile, was he to do? |
35587 | In fact I did so: you saw it?" |
35587 | In other words, was he an eavesdropper by accident, or a spy acting upon information previously communicated to him? |
35587 | In the strife, whose sounds had indistinctly reached her, there may have been a third party-- Maurice Gerald? |
35587 | In what direction? |
35587 | In what way?" |
35587 | Indians? |
35587 | Into the corral, wid the others?" |
35587 | Is he about to unburden his conscience of the weight that must be on it? |
35587 | Is he at home? |
35587 | Is he dead, or is it a_ ruse_ to get me near? |
35587 | Is he inside?" |
35587 | Is it a Mexican word? |
35587 | Is it but his suspicions? |
35587 | Is it fear? |
35587 | Is it from training; or does a horse run faster when ridden? |
35587 | Is it he-- Henry?" |
35587 | Is it imperative you should go?" |
35587 | Is it man, or demon, that mocks me? |
35587 | Is it mockery, this seeming contempt of court? |
35587 | Is it on fire_ now_?" |
35587 | Is it so, Mr Gerald?" |
35587 | Is it so?" |
35587 | Is it something to be alarmed about?" |
35587 | Is it surprising that in such a land women should be found, endowed with those qualities that have been ascribed to Isidora? |
35587 | Is it the hand of God that directs this enemy on his track? |
35587 | Is it the mere instinct of the animal, giving way to a blind unreasoning effort at impossible escape? |
35587 | Is it the way he is wanted to go? |
35587 | Is it to be an acknowledgment of guilt? |
35587 | Is it to prove so again? |
35587 | Is it true that your brother parted in anger with the prisoner at the bar?" |
35587 | Is it true, Gerald? |
35587 | Is it yours? |
35587 | Is n''t there the smell av swate fingers about it? |
35587 | Is she straying? |
35587 | Is she there of her own accord-- by her own free will? |
35587 | Is she willing to have you? |
35587 | Is that all you know about it? |
35587 | Is that beauteous form in the embrace of a paint- bedaubed savage? |
35587 | Is that so, girl?" |
35587 | Is that so? |
35587 | Is that to be the law of the land?" |
35587 | Is the macho coming on?" |
35587 | Is the old maje really afraid of his getting out of the guard- house?" |
35587 | Is the trial to be further postponed? |
35587 | Is there a boding in the behaviour of the birds? |
35587 | Is there a dead body?" |
35587 | Is there any house on the other side?" |
35587 | Is this the thought that sustains him? |
35587 | It accounts for his cold indifference to me? |
35587 | It air the hoss''s throat ye mean, I s''pose?" |
35587 | It could not be a man? |
35587 | It could not be anything relating to young Poindexter''s sister?" |
35587 | It could scarce be caused by the absence of her brother from the breakfast- table? |
35587 | It cyan''t be smothered up in the blankyet? |
35587 | It cyant be yersilf, Miss Pointdixther? |
35587 | It is broken by the formalised interrogatory of the judge? |
35587 | It is his? |
35587 | It might be the individual whose form had just faded out of sight? |
35587 | It might be there again? |
35587 | It seemed a most unpropitious place for playing eavesdropper; and yet there might be a chance? |
35587 | It ud do it no good; nayther cyan it do him any harm to spake about it? |
35587 | Kin ye promise me three days?" |
35587 | Know ye not that some must suffer-- must work and starve-- that others may enjoy the luxury of idleness? |
35587 | Know you where you are, sir? |
35587 | Lazoed in his saddle and dragged to the earth? |
35587 | Let me enter, and watch over him? |
35587 | Let me see? |
35587 | Like themselves, it could only be going towards the Leona: perhaps some government convoy on its way to Fort Inge? |
35587 | Listened she to the voices of the birds, from garden and grove swelling harmoniously around her? |
35587 | Masther Maurice? |
35587 | Maurice Gerald never--""Did the deed, you are going to say? |
35587 | May I ask what it was, Mr Gerald?" |
35587 | May I have your permission to introduce this Hibernian fashion into the settlements of Texas?" |
35587 | May be it''ll be comin''this way in purshoot av them?" |
35587 | Maybe he was about to commit_ murder_? |
35587 | Maybe the overseer? |
35587 | Maybe yez do n''t know that the whisky''s on the idge of bein''out? |
35587 | Mexicano_?" |
35587 | Might there not remain some trace of that clandestine correspondence in the place where it had been carried on? |
35587 | Miss Looey, you so''peak?" |
35587 | Mout it be thet ere individooal yur inquirin''abeout?" |
35587 | Much more might the thief? |
35587 | My cousin, a young lady, betrayed by a common scamp-- a horse, trader-- who would have said a word against it? |
35587 | No doubt you can identify it at some distance?" |
35587 | No, they are not near? |
35587 | Not at the tavern, I hope?" |
35587 | Not in his sleeping- room, I suppose?" |
35587 | Not me, I hope?" |
35587 | Nothin''happened to yur young mistress, I hope? |
35587 | Now, sir, I hope you are satisfied?" |
35587 | Now, sir, will that be agreeable to you?" |
35587 | O blissed Mother, what will become av me? |
35587 | O, sir, tell me, what is the nature of his illness-- what has caused it?" |
35587 | One o''two things it air boun''to be: eyther a bunnel o''rags, or ole Harry from hell?" |
35587 | One who can keep my secret-- who? |
35587 | Only a mile you say?" |
35587 | Only him?" |
35587 | Only say ye''ll streetch a pint, an gi''me three days?" |
35587 | Only the Comanches could have been so cruel? |
35587 | Only the hoss comin''home wi''some rid spots on the seddle?" |
35587 | Or am I mad-- mad-- mad?" |
35587 | Or go on and brave the dark storm that is fast gathering around him? |
35587 | Or had Diaz met him on the way, and forced the letter from him? |
35587 | Or had she become conscious of playing a part open to the suspicion of being unfeminine? |
35587 | Or had the severance been effected by a single cut?" |
35587 | Or how heartily I pressed it? |
35587 | Or is it his tail that is missing?" |
35587 | Or is it the breathing of the horse? |
35587 | Or it may have been the bud of a young love, blighted ere it reached blooming-- by absence, oft fatal to such tender plants of passion? |
35587 | Or was it another chapter of incongruous impossibilities, like that still fresh before his mind? |
35587 | Or, is it only me imaginayshin that''s desavin''me? |
35587 | Or, perhaps, it was but a casual thing-- the encounter of which he had been told, between his daughter and Maurice the mustanger? |
35587 | Or, was it the whisky that did it? |
35587 | Perceiving it, the planter approached, and accosted him with the inquiry:"Is there still a danger?" |
35587 | Perhaps Phelim along with him? |
35587 | Perhaps a second day and night-- or longer-- who can tell how long? |
35587 | Perhaps he''ll repeat his visit, when he thinks I''m in a proper state to receive him? |
35587 | Perhaps it can only be answered by God and himself?" |
35587 | Perhaps it may be a prison?" |
35587 | Perhaps they may have been successful? |
35587 | Perhaps you are yourself interested in Miss Poindexter, notwithstanding your pretensions to be considered a Joseph? |
35587 | Perhaps you do not live_ alone_? |
35587 | Perhaps you will still further assist me by helping me into the saddle? |
35587 | Perhaps you''d like to ride off along with that swaggering fellow? |
35587 | Poindexter to one of the party, who understands Spanish:"_ A jacale_?" |
35587 | Preehaps ye want to see the master o''t?" |
35587 | Pwhat wud the blue- eyed colleen say, if she knew yez were in such danger heeur?" |
35587 | Relieved of this, had he come after me to demand satisfaction for the injury he supposed her to have sustained? |
35587 | S''norita_, who''d have expected to find your ladyship in this lonely place-- wasting your sweetness on the thorny chapparal?" |
35587 | Saint Patrick presarve us, whare is it? |
35587 | Sant Pathrick and all the others to boot, fwhat am I talkin''about? |
35587 | Sant Pathrick protict me, but fwhat was it thin? |
35587 | Sartin the lead struck agin somethin''solid; an I reck''n thur''s nothin''solid in the karkidge o''a ghost?" |
35587 | Senor, what name?" |
35587 | Shall I go back, and dare her to deadly strife?" |
35587 | Shall he plunge back into the thicket, and hide himself from the eyes of men? |
35587 | Shall we move forr''ad, major?" |
35587 | She may yet kick against the traces, if she find the harness not to her liking; and then what am I to do-- poor I?" |
35587 | She was here scarce two weeks ago, was she not? |
35587 | Should he continue along the trail he was already deciphering; or forsake it for that of the steed that had just swept by? |
35587 | Should she make a retreat through that, undignified as it might be? |
35587 | Shure now it cyant?" |
35587 | Shure now, it is n''t wan av them Mixikin girls--_mowchachas_, as they call them? |
35587 | Shure now, yez wudn''t till upon me, if I gave yez a thrifle av a kiss? |
35587 | Shure thare''s somethin''detainin''him? |
35587 | Shure yez do n''t make more than a bare livin''by the horse- catchin''; an if yez did, what mathers it? |
35587 | Shure yez wo n''t object to my doin''that?" |
35587 | Shurly ye know what a maar is?" |
35587 | Snakes, div yez mane?" |
35587 | So-- you''ve let him off?" |
35587 | Some closer tie must have been established between them? |
35587 | Some grand senora, I suppose? |
35587 | Some other shares your-- jacale-- as you call it?" |
35587 | Somebody''s promised him his costs? |
35587 | Something passed between them?" |
35587 | Surely he is breathing?" |
35587 | Surely he would n''t object to a quartering with the Hancocks?" |
35587 | Surely it ca n''t be? |
35587 | Surely it can not be human_?" |
35587 | Surely it could not be human? |
35587 | Surely it could not be human? |
35587 | Surely it could not be human? |
35587 | Surely it is sufficient if he be allowed to proceed with his_ very plausible tale_?" |
35587 | Surely it was? |
35587 | Surely the crisis had come? |
35587 | Surely there''s no danger of his making an attempt to steal out of his prison?" |
35587 | Surely they would n''t have molested me, gallant fellows as they are? |
35587 | Surely to God he do n''t intend making his way across into the garden? |
35587 | Surely you are joking?" |
35587 | Surely you can_ convince_ her?" |
35587 | Surely you have n''t allowed them to get away? |
35587 | Surely you know her-- Louise? |
35587 | Surely you will allow me to give you something better?" |
35587 | Surely''tis as much so as archery, or skating? |
35587 | Surely, gentlemen, this ca n''t be the man we''re in search of?" |
35587 | Surely_ she_ should know-- she who had penned the appointment, and spoken so confidently of his keeping it? |
35587 | Taken with his stylish dress, I suppose? |
35587 | Tara had returned? |
35587 | Tell me, miss; have you seen anybody out here-- that is-- have you met any one, riding about, or camped, or halted anywhere?" |
35587 | Tell me-- is he in great danger?" |
35587 | Texan justice? |
35587 | Thar do n''t''pear to be anythin''arter him? |
35587 | Thar''s none under the blanket, is thar?" |
35587 | Thars some o''the hands air a smith, I reck''n?" |
35587 | That some must be slaves, that others may be free?" |
35587 | That uncourteous start could scarce be an intention-- except on the part of the spotted mustang? |
35587 | That was the danger to be dreaded?" |
35587 | That''s it, ai n''t it?" |
35587 | That''s it, is it? |
35587 | The Comanches have done it?" |
35587 | The Dona Isidora here?--on the Leona, I mean?" |
35587 | The Indians are not here? |
35587 | The Indians? |
35587 | The cause? |
35587 | The cyabin div yez mane?" |
35587 | The dress-- but why need we describe it? |
35587 | The faithful creature could not transport him from the spot; and to stay there would be to die of hunger-- perhaps of the wounds he had received? |
35587 | The head? |
35587 | The horses you mean?" |
35587 | The invalid that lay below, almost under her feet, in a chamber of the hacienda-- her cousin Cassius Calhoun? |
35587 | The mare, standing saddled by his side, might still have betrayed him? |
35587 | The mustanger must be mad? |
35587 | The neighing of her steed has betrayed it? |
35587 | The prisoner is asked, according to the usual formality,--"_Guilty, or not guilty_?" |
35587 | The river must be on the other side? |
35587 | The tongue of scandal takes delight in torturing; and he may have been chosen as one of its victims? |
35587 | There can be little harm in it: since he has gone astray in good company?" |
35587 | There can not be?" |
35587 | There is no certainty that the backwoodsman knows anything of the circumstance that is troubling him? |
35587 | There might have been nothing in it, beyond the simple acknowledgment of her gratitude? |
35587 | There was an interruption to the nocturnal chorus; but that might have been caused by the howling of the hound? |
35587 | There''s but a patch of this, I suppose? |
35587 | Therefore, I move we postpone the trial, till--""What''s the use of postponing it?" |
35587 | They all belong to that cuss arready; an why shed he want to get shot o''the cousin? |
35587 | They are changed, and why? |
35587 | They may be riding to get round her-- in order to advance from different sides, and make sure of her capture? |
35587 | They may be the rear- guard of four hundred? |
35587 | They may have discovered her position? |
35587 | They may have met by accident in the chapparal? |
35587 | They might belong to the devil? |
35587 | They must engage not to begin firing till we have got out of their way?" |
35587 | They''d find his carcase, sure,--maybe hear the shot? |
35587 | Thim I saw too, but was n''t shure about eyedintifycashin; for who kud till a face all covered over wid rid blood? |
35587 | Three long hours, and then what would be the use of him? |
35587 | Thus did they speak to each other, the lady taking the initiative:--"To- morrow night you will meet me again-- to- morrow night, dearest Maurice?" |
35587 | To the question,"Who has done this?" |
35587 | To what was he indebted for his strange deliverance? |
35587 | To whom did he belong? |
35587 | To you, however, it is not so solitary, I presume?" |
35587 | Too well dressed for those ragged_ vagabundos_? |
35587 | Trath have I. Besoides, if I had been the worse for the liquor, why am I not so still? |
35587 | Traveller through the Southern States of America you; can not fail to remember him? |
35587 | Unless that little tell- tale be discovered, he has nothing to fear; and what chance of its being discovered? |
35587 | Upon the instant? |
35587 | Urged by affection, was he going forth to trace the mystery of the murder, by finding the body of the murdered man? |
35587 | Wal, air ye riddy to take the back track?" |
35587 | War it him d''ye think?" |
35587 | Was I really so?" |
35587 | Was he dead? |
35587 | Was her servant a traitor? |
35587 | Was it a change for the better upon the estate of Casa del Corvo? |
35587 | Was it a phantom? |
35587 | Was it a phantom? |
35587 | Was it a phantom? |
35587 | Was it an accident? |
35587 | Was it in correspondence with the form? |
35587 | Was it quite severed from the body?" |
35587 | Was it seen by human eyes in this fresh phase-- with the wolves below, and the vultures above? |
35587 | Was it such as to secure the love of a man so much master of his passions, as the mustanger appeared to be? |
35587 | Was it the Irlandes himself, dead, decapitated, carrying his head in his hand? |
35587 | Was it the sight of the disabled arm, or the pallid face: for the glass had enabled her to distinguish both? |
35587 | Was it the thought that she had been acting wrongly in keeping her father, her brother, and friends in suspense about her safety? |
35587 | Was it this that was stirring them to such excited action-- apparently making them mad? |
35587 | Was it this? |
35587 | Was it, that he feared humiliation by disclosing the part he had himself played? |
35587 | Was she herself happy? |
35587 | Was she looking at a landscape, that could scarce fail to challenge admiration? |
35587 | Was the man dead? |
35587 | Was the scene real? |
35587 | Was the sleeping, or awake? |
35587 | Was there another, who has gone away with the woman? |
35587 | Was this, too, a fancy? |
35587 | We have n''t lost it-- have we?" |
35587 | We may have been seen, and our purpose suspected? |
35587 | We rode close past it while in pursuit of the wild mares?" |
35587 | We''d better keep on arter them?" |
35587 | We''ve come more than five miles-- six, I should say-- and where''s the tree? |
35587 | Well, taking this for granted, you would n''t hang a man without first hearing what he''s got to say for himself? |
35587 | Well; who else was likely to have done it? |
35587 | Well?" |
35587 | Were both dead? |
35587 | Were they at that moment in the woods, or within the walls of the house? |
35587 | Were they listening for that fatal formulary:--One-- two-- fire? |
35587 | Wha power on earth can be appealed to after this? |
35587 | Whar air he?" |
35587 | Whar kin I find Miss Lewaze?" |
35587 | Whar''s he boun''for now? |
35587 | Whar''s_ she_ comin''from?" |
35587 | What air any dung- hill fowl to compare wi''a wild turkey o''the purayra; an how am I to shoot one, arter the sun hev clomb ten mile up the sky? |
35587 | What am I thinkin''o''? |
35587 | What am I to do?" |
35587 | What are them divvils afther? |
35587 | What are they?" |
35587 | What are you now? |
35587 | What are you raving about? |
35587 | What because? |
35587 | What can four Comanche Indians want with Maurice the mustanger? |
35587 | What could be the interpretation of such a tableau? |
35587 | What could be the motive? |
35587 | What could be the purpose of the strange proceeding? |
35587 | What could have caused their scampering? |
35587 | What could have frightened them off? |
35587 | What could have taken her there-- twenty miles across the country-- alone-- in the hut of a common horse- trader-- standing by his bedside? |
35587 | What could it be but Indian jargon? |
35587 | What could it be? |
35587 | What could it be? |
35587 | What could they have quarrelled about?" |
35587 | What did you hear? |
35587 | What do I put the rope roun''me for? |
35587 | What do it say for hisself?" |
35587 | What do yez think it is?" |
35587 | What do you mean, Phelim?" |
35587 | What do_ you_ make o''it, Mister Cash Calhoun?" |
35587 | What do_ you_ make o''it, Sam Manly?" |
35587 | What does he say, uncle?" |
35587 | What does it mane, Tara?" |
35587 | What does it mean, Captain Sloman-- you who know so much of this fellow and his affairs? |
35587 | What does that prove?" |
35587 | What else but keep straight on? |
35587 | What else could he be after? |
35587 | What else could it be? |
35587 | What had all this to do with the question before the council? |
35587 | What had caused_ it_? |
35587 | What had he carried off? |
35587 | What happened this mornin''to change yur tune?" |
35587 | What has challenged the stag to such protracted scrutiny? |
35587 | What have I to fear?" |
35587 | What have you got in the larder?" |
35587 | What have you heard me say?" |
35587 | What have you learnt?" |
35587 | What he did say was:--"You''re not in earnest, Loo?" |
35587 | What if I were to take to it myself? |
35587 | What if he be hunting it? |
35587 | What if he should catch it? |
35587 | What if we stop here a while, and let her have a little rest? |
35587 | What is it he has been saying?" |
35587 | What is it you have to say?" |
35587 | What is it your business, we''d like to know? |
35587 | What is it, sir? |
35587 | What is it? |
35587 | What is it? |
35587 | What is that, Mr Stump? |
35587 | What is this purpose? |

35587 | What kin they be? |
35587 | What makes this mustang a ma- a- r?" |
35587 | What makes you think there is?" |
35587 | What man? |
35587 | What matters-- so long as it is innocent, and gives one a gratification?" |
35587 | What mean you, Cassius? |
35587 | What more do you want to show that the skunk''s guilty? |
35587 | What name?" |
35587 | What next? |
35587 | What of her?" |
35587 | What of that? |
35587 | What on earth can he be after?" |
35587 | What proof hez been found? |
35587 | What protection could there be in a shut door, barred and bolted besides, against that which was not earthly? |
35587 | What say ye to examinin''_ him_?" |
35587 | What say you, Miss Poindexter?" |
35587 | What say you?" |
35587 | What signified his shape, so long as it wanted that portion most essential to existence? |
35587 | What sort of person? |
35587 | What the old Scratch can be his intention? |
35587 | What then?" |
35587 | What time air he expected hum? |
35587 | What was bringing her back? |
35587 | What was it you saw?" |

35587 | What was she to think of that sudden desertion? |
35587 | What was the meaning of that? |
35587 | What was the next step to be taken? |
35587 | What will Florinda say? |
35587 | What will you eat, Mr Stump?" |

35587 | What''s tuk him thur? |
35587 | What''s wrong? |
35587 | What''s your opinion of it, Spangler?" |
35587 | What, then, hinders him from sinking under despair, and at once resigning himself to what must be his ultimate destiny? |
35587 | What, then, was the_ punctilio_ that restrained him? |
35587 | When? |
35587 | When?" |
35587 | Whence came that horse? |
35587 | Whence come they? |

35587 | Whither was he bound? |

35587 | Whither? |
35587 | Who air the individooal that objecks?" |

35587 | Who but Indians could have spilled such innocent blood? |
35587 | Who but Maurice the mustanger? |
35587 | Who but she could protect him? |
35587 | Who can describe the sweetness of such embrace-- strange to say, sweeter from being stolen? |
35587 | Who can he be? |
35587 | Who can paint the delicious emotions experienced at such a moment-- too sacred to be touched by the pen? |
35587 | Who can say that this is not something of the same sort?" |
35587 | Who can show this, to satisfy the jury? |
35587 | Who can unravel it?" |
35587 | Who care fo''dat? |
35587 | Who cares to play carnival on the prairies-- except myself, and my camarados? |
35587 | Who could blame him if he has? |
35587 | Who could have foretold such an interruption as that occasioned by the encounter between Cassius Calhoun and Isidora Covarubio de los Llanos? |
35587 | Who could help noticing it?" |
35587 | Who could it be? |

35587 | Who, or what is it? |
35587 | Who, then, can come up with him? |
35587 | Why are you not free to say it?" |
35587 | Why did I not ask him the name? |
35587 | Why did he refrain from giving a narration of that garden scene to which he had been witness? |
35587 | Why did n''t they go thar? |

35587 | Why should Cassius Calhoun have killed his own cousin? |
35587 | Why should I be angry with you, child? |
35587 | Why should I conceal it from you-- you up here, who know everything that''s down there? |
35587 | Why should I fear_ you_? |
35587 | Why should his fair companion wish to linger there with him? |
35587 | Why should she? |
35587 | Why should they? |
35587 | Why should_ he_ skulk from a visionary danger, that did not deter a man in Mexican garb? |
35587 | Why that anguished utterance? |
35587 | Why that hanging back, as if the thong of horse- hide was a venomous snake, that none dares to touch? |
35587 | Why that took of spiteful hatred? |
35587 | Why was Calhoun concealing what had really occurred? |
35587 | Why wish to watch the_ iodons_, engaged in their aquatic cotillon-- amorous at that time of the year? |
35587 | Why you no let her fill her belly wif de corn? |
35587 | Why, then, had he done the"deal?" |
35587 | Why, then, this antipathy against the respited prisoner, for the second time surging up? |
35587 | Why? |
35587 | Why? |
35587 | Why?" |
35587 | Will God permit the red- handed ruffian to escape? |
35587 | Will He not stretch forth His almighty arm, and stay the assassin in his flight? |
35587 | Will He not stretch forth His almighty arm, and stay the assassin in his flight? |
35587 | Will she take Benito? |

35587 | asks the State prosecutor,"where did you get--?" |
35587 | by the Indians, of course? |
35587 | can I be his nurse till then? |
35587 | can it be true that he has become-- a-- a_ salteador_? |
35587 | can it be true? |
35587 | cried his master, without waiting for him to speak,"is he there?" |
35587 | cried she, removing her hands, and confronting the stalwart hunter with an air of earnest entreaty,"promise me, you will keep my secret? |
35587 | cried the lady, betraying more of pique than surprise;"you there? |
35587 | d''ye call me, Mass''Woodley? |
35587 | do n''t I? |
35587 | do n''t you see them?" |
35587 | echoed Calhoun, chagrined at the slight effect his speeches had produced;"I suppose you understand me?" |
35587 | exclaimed he in the corduroys, fraternally interrogating the hound;"had n''t yez weesh now to be back in Ballyballagh? |
35587 | exclaimed the black,"what am de matter wif de ole hoss? |
35587 | exclaimed the half- drunken horse- hunter, cutting short the explanation,"why waste words upon that? |
35587 | exclaimed the latter,"shoo dat de name ob de brave young white gen''l''m-- he dat us save from being smodered on de brack prairee?" |
35587 | fwhat am I to do now? |

35587 | have n''t you come out to meet us? |
35587 | have you any suspicion as to who the other may be?" |
35587 | he continued, turning to the mare,"ye thort ye wur a goin''hum, did ye? |
35587 | he continued, with his eye measuring the mustanger from head to foot,"you an Irishman? |
35587 | he cried out in a tone of surprise in which pleasure was perceptible--"you here?" |
35587 | he cried, in a quivering voice,"what can it mean? |
35587 | he exclaimed, dropping both snake and tomahawk, and opening his eyes as wide as the lids would allow them;"Shure I must be dhramin? |
35587 | he was with you? |
35587 | hear that? |
35587 | how came you in possession of this?" |

35587 | my daughter; do you mean to disobey me? |

35587 | not the Indiana, I hope?" |
35587 | of Maurice the mustanger? |
35587 | protests the young lady,"why should I no wait for you? |
35587 | rejoined Louise, her colour going and coming as she spoke,"how could I help knowing it? |
35587 | says she, pointing over the plain;"you see that black spot on the horizon? |
35587 | she continued,"what is this threat? |
35587 | surely you ca n''t drink it that way? |
35587 | that wud be a misforthune; an thwat wud she say-- the purty colleen wid the goodlen hair an blue eyes, that lives not twinty miles from Ballyballagh?" |

35587 | why did I mount, without making sure of the rein? |
35587 | why did you insult him?" |
35587 | why do ye clamour against it? |
35587 | why do you say that, Spangler?" |
35587 | why you no holla too: you no friend ob de massr?" |

35587 | you''re not going to be scared from your duty by such swagger as this? |
35587 | you''re not going to sleep outside?" |
35587 | you, cousin Cash? |
26156 | ''A Mameluke rushed in with a scimitar streaming with blood, and--''''Take care; do you want help over this fence?'' |
26156 | ''A merry- andrew?'' |
26156 | ''A new set of faculties called into play?'' |
26156 | ''About the picture? |
26156 | ''All very well by the river, but there''s no beauty in things out of place, like your Louis in Egypt-- well, what was the end of this predicament?'' |
26156 | ''Alone with Rashe?'' |
26156 | ''Alone?'' |
26156 | ''Am I humbled enough?'' |
26156 | ''Am I in disgrace with you, too, Phoebe? |
26156 | ''Am I likely to be in play?'' |
26156 | ''Am I not humbled enough?'' |
26156 | ''Am I to spend my life as a steward? |
26156 | ''And Humfrey Charlecote has never married?'' |
26156 | ''And I suppose you have been reading all manner of books?'' |
26156 | ''And Mervyn was brought up to it--''''That is not my concern,''said Robert, too much in the tone of''Am I my brother''s keeper?'' |
26156 | ''And Robert?'' |
26156 | ''And all that grieves Robin and Miss Charlecote must be shocking, eh? |
26156 | ''And are you about to head the mission?'' |
26156 | ''And are you certain that you would find Miss Charlecote in town? |
26156 | ''And be all the stiffer to- morrow? |
26156 | ''And did you see Robert?'' |
26156 | ''And for all I never intended to do?'' |
26156 | ''And have you seen me eating worms?'' |
26156 | ''And he tells you?'' |
26156 | ''And how is this to change my opinion,''asked Robert,''except by showing me that no right- minded woman could trust herself with him?'' |
26156 | ''And how was it no one ever missed you?'' |
26156 | ''And in the meantime? |
26156 | ''And it was to avoid countenancing my vagaries that you stayed away?'' |
26156 | ''And little Elizabeth?'' |
26156 | ''And may I have them?'' |
26156 | ''And me?'' |
26156 | ''And pray how is that to be helped? |
26156 | ''And pray who pays for them? |
26156 | ''And prayed?'' |
26156 | ''And shall you?'' |
26156 | ''And she has liked no one since?'' |
26156 | ''And that was the offence?'' |
26156 | ''And the family are aware of the attachment?'' |
26156 | ''And then shall we go home?'' |
26156 | ''And this was all? |
26156 | ''And to those that are?'' |
26156 | ''And was not he very wise, mamma?'' |
26156 | ''And what did she do?'' |
26156 | ''And what did you do, then? |
26156 | ''And what has he said to you? |
26156 | ''And what is bright Cynthia doing? |
26156 | ''And what is to explain my absence? |
26156 | ''And what will your husband say to that?'' |
26156 | ''And when is that?'' |
26156 | ''And where are you going?'' |
26156 | ''And where is he? |
26156 | ''And where was the window where you saw the horse and cart? |
26156 | ''And who is to be at the cost of this?'' |
26156 | ''And would these have made you content to be a backwoodsman all your life?'' |
26156 | ''And you are not going to lead Phoebe to believe that you think it indifferent whether those observances be Christian or Pagan?'' |
26156 | ''And you could not feel sure of your Sweet Honey''s welcome?'' |
26156 | ''And you liked him?'' |
26156 | ''And you think I can do that by fortifying myself with Miss Charlecote? |
26156 | ''And you went on when he was there?'' |
26156 | ''And you went to sleep?'' |
26156 | ''And you will write to me-- even when I go back to the Ottawa?'' |
26156 | ''And, Robert, may we stay here?'' |
26156 | ''Another-- another servant?'' |
26156 | ''Are not you going to have an interview?'' |
26156 | ''Are not you going to play to- night, my dears?'' |
26156 | ''Are not you satisfied, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''Are the Fulmorts doing a great deal?'' |
26156 | ''Are these your sentiments, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''Are they coming in?'' |
26156 | ''Are we highly educated women?'' |
26156 | ''Are you certain it is so, Rashe?'' |
26156 | ''Are you crazy, Phoebe? |
26156 | ''Are you insane, Cilly? |
26156 | ''Are you sure?'' |
26156 | ''Are you the lady? |
26156 | ''As he thinks?'' |
26156 | ''As your chief ambition?'' |
26156 | ''Beautiful ruddy gold?'' |
26156 | ''Because a stranger asked who we were?'' |
26156 | ''Before you act spy on me, I should like to know who paid for your fine salmon- fly gown, and all the rest of it?'' |
26156 | ''Bertha,''he began,''Bertha, I have sent for you, Bertha-- it is not possible-- What''s that?'' |
26156 | ''Bertha? |
26156 | ''Besides, having been told my wits would go, how did I know but that they were a symptom of my second childhood?'' |
26156 | ''Betting?'' |
26156 | ''Betting?'' |
26156 | ''Bless me, Phoebe, what could have put that into your head? |
26156 | ''Bless them, mother,''said Robert, bending over her, and she evidently accepted this as what she wanted; but''How-- what?'' |
26156 | ''Boil soup in the coppers; bake loaves in the furnaces? |
26156 | ''But about my going to London?'' |
26156 | ''But all ladies do not seem willing to believe as much, shame on them,''said Honor;''and, tell me, Phoebe, have people called on you?'' |
26156 | ''But ca n''t I wear a red coat too?'' |
26156 | ''But did n''t you want to feel like a lady?'' |
26156 | ''But did you not see how little he was surprised, and how much preoccupied?'' |
26156 | ''But do you indeed mean that you could think of it?'' |
26156 | ''But how am I to be strict when poor little Owen never does anything wrong?'' |
26156 | ''But how can I think of filling up Mrs. Charteris''s house, without the least acquaintance?'' |
26156 | ''But how is it, Cilla: ca n''t you make him forgive?'' |
26156 | ''But how was I to know it?'' |
26156 | ''But is that the motive Miss Fennimore puts before you?'' |
26156 | ''But it is true?'' |
26156 | ''But the others?'' |
26156 | ''But what can I do?'' |
26156 | ''But what? |
26156 | ''But where''s Miss Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''But who was here? |
26156 | ''But why not? |
26156 | ''But why should you think of deserting her?'' |
26156 | ''But why-- what do you mean?'' |
26156 | ''But you will write to us now? |
26156 | ''But, Bertha, how could you ever see him or speak to him?'' |
26156 | ''But, Lucy, what can you mean? |
26156 | ''But, you go?'' |
26156 | ''But,''he objected,''what is the use of building new churches in the City, when there is no filling those you have?'' |
26156 | ''But-- but how can you tell that he would be caught and pinned?'' |
26156 | ''Ca n''t I make up for it?'' |
26156 | ''Ca n''t you conceive that a man may have reasons for wishing to be put in possession of the family place when he can enjoy it, and she ca n''t? |
26156 | ''Ca n''t you stay? |
26156 | ''Can I be of use?'' |
26156 | ''Can I help you find your party?'' |
26156 | ''Can not you tell me what was the matter without being sure so often?'' |
26156 | ''Can that wretched little Cilly have been teasing him? |
26156 | ''Can you let us hope that this whole affair came from an affection of the brain?'' |
26156 | ''Cawthorne? |
26156 | ''Cecily? |
26156 | ''Certainly not; but pray how does Peter mean to avoid the new field of duty, if he be sure of turning out on the Dean''s death? |
26156 | ''Child as you are, Phoebe, had you not sense to know, that no woman could endure to have that said, which should scarcely be implied? |
26156 | ''Cilla, Cilla, how can I answer how it will be brought up?'' |
26156 | ''Cilla, how can you?'' |
26156 | ''Cilla,''said Mr. Prendergast, at the window,''can I have a word with you?'' |
26156 | ''Come to see me and my children?'' |
26156 | ''Coming? |
26156 | ''Could Honor treat me the same after that? |
26156 | ''Could I not obtain some advice for Miss Charteris?'' |
26156 | ''Could he really have meant it all in play?'' |
26156 | ''Could you have believed, Owen,''said Rashe, plaintively,''that she was so absurd as never even to tell him to inquire for our boxes?'' |
26156 | ''Could you reach the moral without the religious?'' |
26156 | ''Dear Owen?'' |
26156 | ''Did Honor make such a liberal remark? |
26156 | ''Did Honor tell him so, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''Did I ever say so?'' |
26156 | ''Did I not hear he was some sort of relation?'' |
26156 | ''Did Robert consent to Maria''s going to Hampstead?'' |
26156 | ''Did he leave his card?'' |
26156 | ''Did he seem in tolerable spirits?'' |
26156 | ''Did he tell you so?'' |
26156 | ''Did mamma see her?'' |
26156 | ''Did n''t I tell you she spoilt the taste of every other transaction of the sort? |
26156 | ''Did n''t I tell you the young lady was with her, and the brother?'' |
26156 | ''Did n''t you hear me, Owen? |
26156 | ''Did n''t you sting your fingers?'' |
26156 | ''Did the angels come and sing to you?'' |
26156 | ''Did you always live at Lakeville?'' |
26156 | ''Did you ever know me have any?'' |
26156 | ''Did you ever play at bagatelle?'' |
26156 | ''Did you ever see her before, so as to observe the little hesitation in her speech?'' |
26156 | ''Did you keep him? |
26156 | ''Did you know us at first?'' |
26156 | ''Did you never hear of the_ Merchant of Venice_?'' |
26156 | ''Did you never see the ball go joggling about before it could settle into its hole, and yet abiding there very steadily at last? |
26156 | ''Did you not see the currant wine?'' |
26156 | ''Did you say anything there?'' |
26156 | ''Did you say she was in the garden? |
26156 | ''Did you try to call?'' |
26156 | ''Do I belong to you now?'' |
26156 | ''Do n''t I?'' |
26156 | ''Do n''t he wish he may get it? |
26156 | ''Do n''t they? |
26156 | ''Do n''t you know I have the good luck to be a minor?'' |
26156 | ''Do n''t you think you may, Peter?'' |
26156 | ''Do not you understand? |
26156 | ''Do what? |
26156 | ''Do you call that a real experience?'' |
26156 | ''Do you call that preparation?'' |
26156 | ''Do you expect that he will wish you to go out with him?'' |
26156 | ''Do you know anything of this?'' |
26156 | ''Do you know him, Lucy?'' |
26156 | ''Do you know what Owen intends?'' |
26156 | ''Do you mean that Mervyn wants to employ him?'' |
26156 | ''Do you mean that she has offered it to Robert?'' |
26156 | ''Do you mean that you have not observed how ill she is looking?'' |
26156 | ''Do you mean to say that this was the case with yourself, my dear? |
26156 | ''Do you never talk about grievances?'' |
26156 | ''Do you really think so? |
26156 | ''Do you remember the hideous muddles of last summer? |
26156 | ''Do you remember what she said about the two wills contending?'' |
26156 | ''Do you take early walks still, Humfrey?'' |
26156 | ''Do you think I have nerves of brass?'' |
26156 | ''Do you think her strong enough for the risks of a hurried journey, with perhaps a worse shock awaiting her when the steamer comes in? |
26156 | ''Do you think that throwing aside Phoebe''s little services will make you fitter to go among the little children?'' |
26156 | ''Do you think they will not?'' |
26156 | ''Do you want it?'' |
26156 | ''Do you want to try your pistols on me? |
26156 | ''Do you wish to see him? |
26156 | ''Do you, Robert? |
26156 | ''Do your friends arrive to- night?'' |
26156 | ''Does Dr. Martyn attend you? |
26156 | ''Does Lucy know this?'' |
26156 | ''Does he go to London, at all events?'' |
26156 | ''Does mamma know it?'' |
26156 | ''Does she think seriously?'' |
26156 | ''Does the little boy amuse him?'' |
26156 | ''Doubt?'' |
26156 | ''Drowned in the fountain?'' |
26156 | ''Edie and Reggie want to know if she is the lady that put out the light?'' |
26156 | ''Eh? |
26156 | ''Eh?'' |
26156 | ''Eh?'' |
26156 | ''Ever since when?'' |
26156 | ''For my sake, or theirs?'' |
26156 | ''For us all?'' |
26156 | ''Forgive_ you_?'' |
26156 | ''Going away?'' |
26156 | ''Going on well, I trust? |
26156 | ''Going out as a governess? |
26156 | ''Going to do it out of sight?'' |
26156 | ''Ha?'' |
26156 | ''Had the man been written to?'' |
26156 | ''Had you not heard? |
26156 | ''Happy wife?'' |
26156 | ''Harm? |
26156 | ''Has Robert, then?'' |
26156 | ''Has he any expectations?'' |
26156 | ''Has he had advice?'' |
26156 | ''Has it been a comfort to her? |
26156 | ''Has no one thought it worth while to tell you?'' |
26156 | ''Has she never been sensible?'' |
26156 | ''Hastings must have learnt by some means that the speculation was not what he had imagined; for though he met her at Paddington--''''He did?'' |
26156 | ''Have n''t I? |
26156 | ''Have you a subscription list?'' |
26156 | ''Have you been awake long?'' |
26156 | ''Have you been playing any tricks?'' |
26156 | ''Have you brought the pig''s wool?'' |
26156 | ''Have you called?'' |
26156 | ''Have you considered? |
26156 | ''Have you ever seen anything in London?'' |
26156 | ''Have you got through your shopping?'' |
26156 | ''Have you made out how she passed the last two days?'' |
26156 | ''Have you not been telling this young lady that a gentleman has been asking after us, and desiring to be informed what route we intended to take?'' |
26156 | ''Have you not learnt that whatever he dislikes she forwards?'' |
26156 | ''Have you seen her?'' |
26156 | ''Have you spoken to her?'' |
26156 | ''He call Derval to account for all the tricks of his fiddlers and singers? |
26156 | ''He did n''t tell you he had taken a vow of celibacy?'' |
26156 | ''He does not expect them to give him the living? |
26156 | ''He has told you? |
26156 | ''He is a very excellent man,''began bewildered Honor;''but I can not understand--''''His oddity? |
26156 | ''He says nothing of a change?'' |
26156 | ''Her decision of what you are to be?'' |
26156 | ''Her spirits?'' |
26156 | ''Hit off at last, is n''t it, aunt? |
26156 | ''Home? |
26156 | ''Honey, Honeypots,''and a pull at her hand when she did not immediately attend,''why do n''t the little crabs get black legs like mine?'' |
26156 | ''How am I to speak, Lucy,''said Honora,''if you come with the avowed intention of disregarding what I say?'' |
26156 | ''How can I help it, when I see you throwing away happiness-- welfare-- the good opinion of all your friends?'' |
26156 | ''How can that be? |
26156 | ''How can you be so silly? |
26156 | ''How can you expect trust when you go beyond the bounds of discretion?'' |
26156 | ''How can you, on such a day as this, with the air, as it were, loaded with cheiranthus smell? |
26156 | ''How could any one have been so cruel as to utter such a horrible presage?'' |
26156 | ''How could you bear it?'' |
26156 | ''How could you know it?'' |
26156 | ''How could you tell that?'' |
26156 | ''How could you think of anything else?'' |
26156 | ''How could you? |
26156 | ''How did he manage to give no suspicion? |
26156 | ''How did you come to think of it?'' |
26156 | ''How did you get on with the backwoodsman, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''How did you spend the evening?'' |
26156 | ''How do I know what he thinks?'' |
26156 | ''How do you get on with them?'' |
26156 | ''How do you know what good use I may make of my opportunities?'' |
26156 | ''How is she?--where is she?'' |
26156 | ''How long has this been going on?'' |
26156 | ''How much do you think I have touched of that? |
26156 | ''How now?'' |
26156 | ''How old is he?'' |
26156 | ''How old is he?'' |
26156 | ''How old is your daughter?'' |
26156 | ''How on earth did you know about them?'' |
26156 | ''How recently?'' |
26156 | ''How shall I convince you?'' |
26156 | ''How should I?'' |
26156 | ''How soon shall you be sufficiently repaired for a start, Ratia?'' |
26156 | ''How was he?'' |
26156 | ''How was it, my dear?'' |
26156 | ''How?'' |
26156 | ''Humfrey Charlecote, my dear? |
26156 | ''I am afraid your colonial education translated that into pounds s. d.''''Then you are not poor?'' |
26156 | ''I beg your pardon, a sign of what?'' |
26156 | ''I believe you know,''she said,''that I have no nearer relation than yourself?'' |
26156 | ''I have heard Lolly plays as deeply as Charles, does not she? |
26156 | ''I honour your motives; but would n''t it be for the convenience of all parties, if you took_ Punch''s_ celebrated advice--"don''t"?'' |
26156 | ''I know you''ll oblige me; eh, Fanny Blake?'' |
26156 | ''I mean, whether, as the person whose decision has the most worth in this family, you are satisfied to leave your sisters under my charge? |
26156 | ''I say, Robert, where''s the Bannerman carriage? |
26156 | ''I say,''he hoarsely cried,''what''s all this? |
26156 | ''I should be delighted-- but is it not arranged?'' |
26156 | ''I should hate the business myself,''said the baronet;''but do n''t you see it in a strong light?'' |
26156 | ''I suppose all English houses can scarcely be like this?'' |
26156 | ''I thought the reverse was clearly understood?'' |
26156 | ''I thought you called him Randolf?'' |
26156 | ''I thought--''she said, apologetically,''Did my servant say Miss Sandbrook?'' |
26156 | ''I wish I may; but, bless me, Phoebe, she is a perfect little nun, and what is she to do with a graceless dog like me?'' |
26156 | ''I wo n''t miss them,''said Robert, eagerly; then, with a sudden, puzzled look--''Did he send you?'' |
26156 | ''I wonder if those were ball- room manners? |
26156 | ''I wonder whether the Charterises will take any notice of Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''I-- I?'' |
26156 | ''I? |
26156 | ''I? |
26156 | ''If I am not trusted, what''s the good of affection?'' |
26156 | ''If I knew it willed to the County Hospital, should n''t I wish as much to be with her as before? |
26156 | ''If it be all my bad management, can not it be set right?'' |
26156 | ''If it is too smart, ca n''t you give her a hint?'' |
26156 | ''If she had, do you think that I should go back?'' |
26156 | ''If so, why the secrecy?'' |
26156 | ''If you did not know it, why did you call me_ that_?'' |
26156 | ''If you know that letter is for me, why did you meddle with it?'' |
26156 | ''In London?'' |
26156 | ''In spite of the obloquy of a poor man paying court to wealth?'' |
26156 | ''In the time of the Indians?'' |
26156 | ''In there? |
26156 | ''Indeed?'' |
26156 | ''Into whose?'' |
26156 | ''Ireland?'' |
26156 | ''Is Hiltonbury bigger than the castle?'' |
26156 | ''Is Miss Charlecote aware of-- what has been going wrong?'' |
26156 | ''Is Mr. Henderson still alive?'' |
26156 | ''Is Sandbrook at the Holt?'' |
26156 | ''Is he quite sensible?'' |
26156 | ''Is he there?'' |
26156 | ''Is it Owen''s wish?'' |
26156 | ''Is it Wrapworth, nursey?'' |
26156 | ''Is it not enough to have one''s throat cut, but must one do it with one''s own hands? |
26156 | ''Is it possible that you did not know what I have been doing all this week?'' |
26156 | ''Is it quite well judged, unless it were his strong desire? |
26156 | ''Is it to be at that place in Cicely Row?'' |
26156 | ''Is it true that you understand me, and are willing to be-- to be my own-- darling charge?'' |
26156 | ''Is it true, then?'' |
26156 | ''Is it?'' |
26156 | ''Is n''t it their work to make people more good?'' |
26156 | ''Is not this more shame than sullenness?'' |
26156 | ''Is she come down?'' |
26156 | ''Is she demented?'' |
26156 | ''Is she very pretty-- prettier than Lucilla Sandbrook?'' |
26156 | ''Is that any reason you should go ramping about, prying into people''s affairs?'' |
26156 | ''Is that the mistress? |
26156 | ''Is there an end of all these mysteries?'' |
26156 | ''Is there nothing I can do for you?'' |
26156 | ''Is there nothing more that I can do for you?'' |
26156 | ''Is there to be dancing?'' |
26156 | ''It is no concern of mine, I know; but what is to become of the business if you go giving away the houses?'' |
26156 | ''It is not about Ireland?'' |
26156 | ''It is settled, then?'' |
26156 | ''It is too generous to be talked of, and these are not matters of choice, but duty; but is it not possible to make some compensation?'' |
26156 | ''It is very good in you; but have you not troubles enough already? |
26156 | ''It must have been a great mortification--''''To Owen? |
26156 | ''It will be very cruel to you, and to the poor people, if he will not,''said Phoebe, warmly;''what will papa and Mervyn say?'' |
26156 | ''Let me ask one question-- why was this explanation never offered before to those who had more right to decide?'' |
26156 | ''Let me see-- was he the one that won the steeple- chase? |
26156 | ''Let the house? |
26156 | ''Like a grown- up lady, like mamma and my sisters?'' |
26156 | ''Like it? |
26156 | ''Liked the nasty genie?'' |
26156 | ''Little Cilly left behind, to serve for food to the Rouge Dragon? |
26156 | ''Lucilla, are you distracted, or is it your object to make me so?'' |
26156 | ''Lucy, have you no pity?'' |
26156 | ''Lucy; how could you know? |
26156 | ''May I come home?'' |
26156 | ''May I come to see you?'' |
26156 | ''May I dare to tell you what you are to me? |
26156 | ''May I go in there?'' |
26156 | ''May I go on?'' |
26156 | ''May I have some white mice? |
26156 | ''May it not be to his better feelings like sunshine to morning dew?'' |
26156 | ''May not I be unhappy if I like, with my brother in this state?'' |
26156 | ''Mean it? |
26156 | ''Mercy, what have I gone and said?'' |
26156 | ''Mervyn, how can I go? |
26156 | ''Mervyn, what do you mean? |
26156 | ''Miss Charlecote, how are you? |
26156 | ''Miss Charlecote, is he talking in earnest?'' |
26156 | ''Miss Charteris, is not that a little too strong?'' |
26156 | ''Must I not sketch, then?'' |
26156 | ''Must she be told?'' |
26156 | ''My Phoebe,''he said tenderly,''how are you? |
26156 | ''My dear, am I disturbing you?'' |
26156 | ''My dear, what shall I do with the others without you? |
26156 | ''My dear, you noticed the mark on his hand,''said Honora;''you do not know the cause?'' |
26156 | ''My mallard''s tail hat is odd"go to meeting"head- gear,''said Cilla,''but one can not lapse into heathenism; so where, Rashe?'' |
26156 | ''My news from Paris?'' |
26156 | ''My sisters do not,''said Phoebe;''but he told me, when-- when he hoped--''''And now you will help me?'' |
26156 | ''My thoughts? |
26156 | ''Nay, dearest, is not the new one instituted by Heaven? |
26156 | ''Never?'' |
26156 | ''No explanation, Phoebe; what''s the use? |
26156 | ''No objection on your side, certainly, so I perceive; but suppose there were no desire on the other?'' |
26156 | ''No, indeed; you did n''t?'' |
26156 | ''No, my dear; clergymen do n''t go out hunting; or how could they teach the poor little children?'' |
26156 | ''No? |
26156 | ''No? |
26156 | ''None?'' |
26156 | ''Nor for that of the three flaxen- haired princesses, with religious opinions to be accommodated to those of the crowned heads they may marry?'' |
26156 | ''Nor this?'' |
26156 | ''Nor this?'' |
26156 | ''Not Hastings? |
26156 | ''Not Sandbrook?'' |
26156 | ''Not before?'' |
26156 | ''Not even the old beech that was scathed with lightning? |
26156 | ''Not fully_ best_ yet, is it?'' |
26156 | ''Not like Sally Page? |
26156 | ''Not one message to me?'' |
26156 | ''Not right for Owen to make full compensation? |
26156 | ''Not to be a Mahometan?'' |
26156 | ''Not without your consent?'' |
26156 | ''Not?'' |
26156 | ''Nothing can clear me but an appeal to the fountain,''said Owen;''will you come and look in, Phoebe? |
26156 | ''Now my pa is come, sha n''t I be a gentleman, and ride in a carriage?'' |
26156 | ''Now who told you that? |
26156 | ''Now, Owen, are you sure?'' |
26156 | ''O Robin, how can he be so hard?'' |
26156 | ''O no, no, I could not leave papa and mamma; but some time or other--''''Is this arranged? |
26156 | ''O, Cilla, what would your father feel?'' |
26156 | ''O, why was not I at home? |
26156 | ''Of Moorcroft?'' |
26156 | ''Oh, are you come home, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''Oh, is she going to help you on?'' |
26156 | ''Oh, very well; and pray when does he summon you from among the ungodly? |
26156 | ''Oh, you silly, silly person, why could n''t you come here?'' |
26156 | ''Old woman''( his favourite name for her),''do you know what a spectacle I have been witnessing?'' |
26156 | ''One moment, Robert-- the child?'' |
26156 | ''One thing more,''said Charles, in his character of head of the family;''should n''t you look up Miss Charlecote, Cilly? |
26156 | ''Only one thing I must ask,''she said, presently;''is he well?'' |
26156 | ''Or did he only make them learning and ornament, instead of a joy and devotion?'' |
26156 | ''Or if their Ladyships thought otherwise,''he said, with a twinkle in his eye,''why did they not come down themselves?'' |
26156 | ''Owen, for instance?'' |
26156 | ''Owen, where have you hidden yourself? |
26156 | ''Owen? |
26156 | ''Phoebe, are you crazy?'' |
26156 | ''Phoebe, how do you like all this?'' |
26156 | ''Phoebe, my dear, are you here?'' |
26156 | ''Phoebe,''he said, turning with her into her room,''what is the matter with Lucy?'' |
26156 | ''Poor Cecily, what will she do? |
26156 | ''Poor lad, is he much cut up?'' |
26156 | ''Poor little fellow,''she said, rocking him, as she sat on the step and folded her shawl round him,''have you been here all night? |
26156 | ''Pray where did this scene take place?'' |
26156 | ''Pray, Phoebe, how came you to tamper with people''s letters?'' |
26156 | ''Pray, in which class do you reckon the Sandbrooks?'' |
26156 | ''Proposed by deputy?'' |
26156 | ''Quite right, Miss Charlecote; private pupils are a delusion? |
26156 | ''Refused Laneham!--that capital college living!--with no better dependence than his fellowship, and such a curacy as Wrapworth?'' |
26156 | ''Right? |
26156 | ''Robert, where are you?'' |
26156 | ''Robert-- what has he to do with it? |
26156 | ''Robert? |
26156 | ''Safe, my child? |
26156 | ''Sha n''t I, then?'' |
26156 | ''Shall I do?'' |
26156 | ''Shall I try whether he can see you?'' |
26156 | ''Shall I?'' |
26156 | ''Shall we come here in the early morning, and set it to rights?'' |
26156 | ''Shall you sleep?'' |
26156 | ''Shall you tell her?'' |
26156 | ''She is all kindness and forgiveness, and what can it be but my old vixen spirit that makes this hard to bear?'' |
26156 | ''She is coming home, then?'' |
26156 | ''She wants you to finish Smith''s_ Wealth of Nations_, eh?'' |
26156 | ''Should not I have patience to wait while he is at his real glorious labour? |
26156 | ''Should you live in London?'' |
26156 | ''Sir John''s daughter?'' |
26156 | ''So he will get his reduction?'' |
26156 | ''So that it ca n''t expand to your grand intellect?'' |
26156 | ''So they hunt you out to be bullied by Juliana, or slaved to death by Augusta, which is it to be? |
26156 | ''So you are a great admirer of dear old Charlecote, Phoebe: you ca n''t remember him?'' |
26156 | ''So you are not grown wiser?'' |
26156 | ''So you mean to leave me here alone?'' |
26156 | ''So you were not aware of the dissent?'' |
26156 | ''So, Phoebe, it is all right, and you are satisfied?'' |
26156 | ''Spanish place? |
26156 | ''Still after your out- of- doors life of bodily exercise, do you not find it hard to be always shut up in London?'' |
26156 | ''Suppose it were Calthorp himself?'' |
26156 | ''Taking you at your word?'' |
26156 | ''Terribly hot here,''he said, restlessly;''suffocating, are n''t you, Honor? |
26156 | ''Thank you,''said Phoebe; then turning to her brother,''Mervyn, do you, too, cast off poor Maria?'' |
26156 | ''Thank you,''she said;''have I made a fuss--?'' |
26156 | ''That enabled you to think and act?'' |
26156 | ''That is not required; it is your fate, Phoebe; why do n''t you speak, or are you under an embargo from any of the wicked enchanters? |
26156 | ''That woman?'' |
26156 | ''That you are Humfrey''s ward?--my legacy from him? |
26156 | ''The Fulmorts? |
26156 | ''The facts? |
26156 | ''The goggle or the squint?'' |
26156 | ''The matter?'' |
26156 | ''The old lady wanting you to make her will?'' |
26156 | ''The parsonage?'' |
26156 | ''The prisoner?'' |
26156 | ''The rest?'' |
26156 | ''The what?'' |
26156 | ''The witch for the lost children? |
26156 | ''Then are not you a Charlecote?'' |
26156 | ''Then had n''t you better not?'' |
26156 | ''Then he did not give his name?'' |
26156 | ''Then if you are so uncertain of her movements, do you not think you had better let me learn them before you start? |
26156 | ''Then if you have an afternoon to spare, could not we take Mr. Randolf to the Tower?'' |
26156 | ''Then is it my doing? |
26156 | ''Then it is an engagement?'' |
26156 | ''Then it was a bite, Uncle Kit?'' |
26156 | ''Then must we lose you,''said Phoebe,''when you are doing Bertha so much good?'' |
26156 | ''Then she is very good?'' |
26156 | ''Then what brought you here? |
26156 | ''Then what could you do with such a child as my Owen if it were all to come over again? |
26156 | ''Then what is to be done? |
26156 | ''Then what''s the use of having thirty thousand pounds?'' |
26156 | ''Then where did you see her?'' |
26156 | ''Then why did n''t he take me?'' |
26156 | ''Then would n''t it be using her ill to disappoint her now? |
26156 | ''Then you are distressed about him?'' |
26156 | ''Then you are not obliged?'' |
26156 | ''Then you can bear with me? |
26156 | ''Then you can not come with us?'' |
26156 | ''Then you could not gain consent to it?'' |
26156 | ''Then you did not care for him?'' |
26156 | ''Then you do know something?'' |
26156 | ''Then you do n''t mean it?'' |
26156 | ''Then you do not come from her?'' |
26156 | ''Then you have been unwell?'' |
26156 | ''Then you know that she cares for you?'' |
26156 | ''Then you saw Mervyn?'' |
26156 | ''Then you think he is shaken out of it?'' |
26156 | ''Then you think he ought not to change his mind?'' |
26156 | ''Then you think it all nonsense?'' |
26156 | ''Then your past misfortunes have not given you a distaste to farming?'' |
26156 | ''Then, my child, you never traced my unsettled faith?--my habit of testing mystery by reason never perplexed you?'' |
26156 | ''Then, what gentleman has been here, making inquiries about us?'' |
26156 | ''Then,''with some sulkiness,''you wo n''t be content without beggaring me of my trumpery twenty- five hundred as soon as I am of age?'' |
26156 | ''There''s still time,''said Owen, with his hand on the check- string;''which do you patronize? |
26156 | ''They-- not you?'' |
26156 | ''This is the reason you tell me?'' |
26156 | ''This to be sold?'' |
26156 | ''Thought what? |
26156 | ''To diffuse the widest amount of happiness?'' |
26156 | ''To look at a living?'' |
26156 | ''To take Owen to sea? |
26156 | ''To what point, dear Lucy?'' |
26156 | ''To- morrow? |
26156 | ''Turning you out?'' |
26156 | ''Was Mr. Charlecote fond of natural history?'' |
26156 | ''Was he at Winchester?'' |
26156 | ''Was he like this?'' |
26156 | ''Was it from his master?'' |
26156 | ''Was it? |
26156 | ''Was n''t it that which your mother disapproved, Fanny, because it was worshipping idols to sing about great Diana of the Ephesians?'' |
26156 | ''Was n''t it very tiresome?'' |
26156 | ''Was she alone?'' |
26156 | ''Was that Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''Was that why he was so good?'' |
26156 | ''Well, Curlylocks, how much mischief did you do yesterday?'' |
26156 | ''Well, Edna, how are you getting on? |
26156 | ''Well, Humfrey,''she said, after some pause,''do you think I am fit to be trusted with my two poor children?'' |
26156 | ''Well, Phoebe, how do you like it?'' |
26156 | ''Well, Phoebe, how''s Bertha? |
26156 | ''Well, according to your theory, what is her name?'' |
26156 | ''Well, and is not it more respectful?'' |
26156 | ''Well, at what?'' |
26156 | ''Well, but who is the fellow? |
26156 | ''Well, but who is the shy man? |
26156 | ''Well, we never thought to meet in such a place, did we? |
26156 | ''Well, what do you think of him?'' |
26156 | ''Well, what do you want me to do?'' |
26156 | ''Well, what do you want?'' |
26156 | ''Well, what is it?'' |
26156 | ''Well, what now?'' |
26156 | ''Well, what then? |
26156 | ''Well, what would you do?'' |
26156 | ''Well, what?'' |
26156 | ''Well, why not, when she has not had one_ real_ experience?'' |
26156 | ''Well, you were not wanted to nurse the sick man, were you? |
26156 | ''Well; what is it?'' |
26156 | ''Well?'' |
26156 | ''Well?'' |
26156 | ''Well?'' |
26156 | ''Well?'' |
26156 | ''Were you not preparing a house for your brother?'' |
26156 | ''What about her?'' |
26156 | ''What are we to do if both brothers turn us out?'' |
26156 | ''What are you doing? |
26156 | ''What are you going to do to- day, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''What are you going to sketch, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''What are you listening to, Lucy?'' |
26156 | ''What are you looking for, Mervyn?'' |
26156 | ''What are you shaking your head for, Owen? |
26156 | ''What are you thanking me for?'' |
26156 | ''What bet will you take, Lord William, that, maiden aunts and all, I appear on the 3rd, in a dress of salmon- flies?'' |
26156 | ''What bet will you take, Miss Sandbrook?'' |
26156 | ''What can have happened to him?'' |
26156 | ''What can you have been doing then?'' |
26156 | ''What could I do with such a drain upon me; the old woman for ever clamouring for money, and threatening exposure? |
26156 | ''What did mamma say?'' |
26156 | ''What do you mean by that, Horatia?'' |
26156 | ''What do you mean, Bertha, by such a correspondence as this?'' |
26156 | ''What do you mean?'' |
26156 | ''What do you take me for, Cilla? |
26156 | ''What do you think of doing?'' |
26156 | ''What do you think, then?'' |
26156 | ''What does Phoebe say?'' |
26156 | ''What does it matter to me who comes or goes? |
26156 | ''What gentleman?'' |
26156 | ''What had they to do with my cornfields? |
26156 | ''What have I done that you should refuse to believe in the feelings that prompted me?'' |
26156 | ''What have you done?'' |
26156 | ''What is it for? |
26156 | ''What is odd?'' |
26156 | ''What is the difference?'' |
26156 | ''What is the matter?'' |
26156 | ''What is the matter?'' |
26156 | ''What is the result of your reflection now?'' |
26156 | ''What is the use of telling such things, Acton?'' |
26156 | ''What is this harm, Robin?'' |
26156 | ''What is your letter, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''What kind of impressions?'' |
26156 | ''What kind of things?'' |
26156 | ''What of that, little one?'' |
26156 | ''What of that?'' |
26156 | ''What of that?'' |
26156 | ''What should I do with him?'' |
26156 | ''What should an old distiller know of landed property?'' |
26156 | ''What sort of scrape?'' |
26156 | ''What was it?'' |
26156 | ''What was only a dream?'' |
26156 | ''What was that duet I heard you practising?'' |
26156 | ''What was that? |
26156 | ''What was the name, ma''am, if you please?'' |
26156 | ''What were you doing here?'' |
26156 | ''What were you waiting for?'' |
26156 | ''What would Honor''s feelings be?'' |
26156 | ''What would you do if I told you not?'' |
26156 | ''What would you do if you did not find her?'' |
26156 | ''What young lady, Edna? |
26156 | ''What''s that you are writing?'' |
26156 | ''What''s that?'' |
26156 | ''What''s the matter now?'' |
26156 | ''What''s the matter?'' |
26156 | ''What''s this? |
26156 | ''What, Robert?'' |
26156 | ''What, all her sanctimonious ways? |
26156 | ''What, not to give pleasure at home, and profit by opportunities?'' |
26156 | ''What, that I was made a fool of?'' |
26156 | ''What, when you do n''t know what you are talking of, and are still trembling all over?'' |
26156 | ''What, you pretend to deny? |
26156 | ''What-- what-- what''s the matter?'' |
26156 | ''What? |
26156 | ''What? |
26156 | ''What?'' |
26156 | ''What?'' |
26156 | ''What?'' |
26156 | ''What?'' |
26156 | ''What?'' |
26156 | ''What?'' |
26156 | ''What_ did_ she say?'' |
26156 | ''When I knew that before, why may I not know that there are others not in the same case?'' |
26156 | ''When can she?'' |
26156 | ''When did you come?'' |
26156 | ''When may I come?'' |
26156 | ''When she speaks in that way, can you still--? |
26156 | ''Where are they?'' |
26156 | ''Where are they?'' |
26156 | ''Where are you, stewardess? |
26156 | ''Where did you get that, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | ''Where does Mr. Hastings lodge, sir?'' |
26156 | ''Where have you been, you Robin? |
26156 | ''Where is your friend?'' |
26156 | ''Where shall I find one?'' |
26156 | ''Where shall we go? |
26156 | ''Where?'' |
26156 | ''Where?'' |
26156 | ''Where?'' |
26156 | ''Whether what is?'' |
26156 | ''Which way is he gone?'' |
26156 | ''Which?'' |
26156 | ''White comes out hideous,''said Lucilla;''I suppose you would not have a copy, if I took one off for you?'' |
26156 | ''Who could have forgotten you?'' |
26156 | ''Who do you think is here?'' |
26156 | ''Who is it that ca n''t wait?'' |
26156 | ''Who is it? |
26156 | ''Who is taking care of the parish?'' |
26156 | ''Who told you so?'' |
26156 | ''Who told you that I did? |
26156 | ''Who was it?'' |
26156 | ''Who, Sir John?'' |
26156 | ''Who? |
26156 | ''Who?'' |
26156 | ''Who?'' |
26156 | ''Who?'' |
26156 | ''Who?'' |
26156 | ''Who?--why, who should it be? |
26156 | ''Whom has he married?'' |
26156 | ''Whom have you here for mistress?'' |
26156 | ''Whom were you with?'' |
26156 | ''Whose voice was that?'' |
26156 | ''Whose writing is this?'' |
26156 | ''Whose? |
26156 | ''Why ca n''t he come here?'' |
26156 | ''Why could he not have told me?'' |
26156 | ''Why did I let it out, and make him think me a vixen? |
26156 | ''Why did he not come out to find me? |
26156 | ''Why did you never tell me so?'' |
26156 | ''Why do you call me poor?'' |
26156 | ''Why do you stand there laughing?'' |
26156 | ''Why not, poor fellow? |
26156 | ''Why not?'' |
26156 | ''Why not?'' |
26156 | ''Why not?'' |
26156 | ''Why so?'' |
26156 | ''Why were you not at dinner?'' |
26156 | ''Why, Phoebe,''cried Robert, as the door closed,''how could you not tell me this?'' |
26156 | ''Why, are not you coming in?'' |
26156 | ''Why, what do you call it?'' |
26156 | ''Why, what do you think I found? |
26156 | ''Why, what does the child mean? |
26156 | ''Why, what has she taught you but the ologies and the Rights of Women?'' |
26156 | ''Why, what would become of you? |
26156 | ''Why?'' |
26156 | ''Why?'' |
26156 | ''Will He give me His own goodness?'' |
26156 | ''Will fifty do? |
26156 | ''Will he get it?'' |
26156 | ''Will it not annoy your cousins?'' |
26156 | ''Will the man be satisfied with the two hundred?'' |
26156 | ''Will the young lady take my hand? |
26156 | ''Will there be a pony to ride on?'' |
26156 | ''Will you help me to carry home this poor invalid warrior, Owen?'' |
26156 | ''Will you look at this letter?'' |
26156 | ''Will you tell me your name, my dear?'' |
26156 | ''Without seeing her?'' |
26156 | ''Wo n''t you look into school, and see how we go on? |
26156 | ''Would n''t it be fun to look into a Roman Catholic affair?'' |
26156 | ''Would n''t it have been naughty?'' |
26156 | ''Would n''t she, though?'' |
26156 | ''Would you like anything before breakfast?'' |
26156 | ''Would you like for me to do so?'' |
26156 | ''Wrapworth? |
26156 | ''Yes, I am; what am I good for but such things? |
26156 | ''Yes, my dear; did you not know? |
26156 | ''Yes, that''s it, and it''s not fair,''cried the poor child again;''why could n''t he tell me? |
26156 | ''You are content, my unselfish one?'' |
26156 | ''You are glad?'' |
26156 | ''You are going to Sutton?'' |
26156 | ''You are going to recommend me?'' |
26156 | ''You are not frantic enough to want to do it out of your own money? |
26156 | ''You are quite sure she prefers it?'' |
26156 | ''You are sure it is not too far for you?'' |
26156 | ''You can not leave her to me? |
26156 | ''You can not return to your profession?'' |
26156 | ''You did n''t?'' |
26156 | ''You do n''t mean that we are going to be ruined?'' |
26156 | ''You do n''t mean that you did n''t know what she went with the Merivales for?--five thousand a year and a baronetcy, eh?'' |
26156 | ''You do n''t mean that you do n''t know wheat stubble?'' |
26156 | ''You do n''t mean that you''ve seen him?'' |
26156 | ''You do not mean to wait for years?'' |
26156 | ''You do not really mean it?'' |
26156 | ''You had advice?'' |
26156 | ''You have not heard? |
26156 | ''You have not proposed sending him to her?'' |
26156 | ''You here, Cilla? |
26156 | ''You here?'' |
26156 | ''You know the alternative?'' |
26156 | ''You larking, Phoebe? |
26156 | ''You like your cousins better than you expected?'' |
26156 | ''You long for it?'' |
26156 | ''You never guessed?'' |
26156 | ''You show it, do n''t you?'' |
26156 | ''You think Mr. Randolf like him?'' |
26156 | ''You think it will be a bad illness?'' |
26156 | ''You think well of Bertha?'' |
26156 | ''You went up to see him skate?'' |
26156 | ''You were married then?'' |
26156 | ''You will not be of those, my Phoebe, who suffer and are worn by a long engagement?'' |
26156 | ''You would rather she did it than I?'' |
26156 | ''You''ll write? |
26156 | ''You''ve done it?'' |
26156 | ''You, Owen?'' |
26156 | ''You, too? |
26156 | ''You? |
26156 | ''You? |
26156 | ''You?'' |
26156 | ''Your boxes? |
26156 | ''Your cloth? |
26156 | ''Your little boy?'' |
26156 | (''Does he not? |
26156 | (''Have I? |
26156 | (''Where did she find that grand sentence?'') |
26156 | --in a whisper, not unheard by Phoebe, and affording her so much satisfaction that she only said, in a grave, puzzled voice,''The hooks?'' |
26156 | ? |
26156 | A few months ago, how could I have borne it?'' |
26156 | A governess? |
26156 | A little happiness might have patched me up, but--''''The symptoms are recurring? |
26156 | Acting for my mother, as you will have to do, how are you to deal with the servants?'' |
26156 | After all, it could not be, or why should Owen have been bent on returning, and be so independent of her? |
26156 | After having miserably infused my own temper of rationalism, how could I, as a novice and learner, fitly train that poor child? |
26156 | Ai n''t I wretched enough already to please you?'' |
26156 | Alarmed perhaps, but certainly not confounded, Bertha put her hands before her, and demurely said--''What do you mean?'' |
26156 | All alone?'' |
26156 | Alone as she stood, without a tie, was not she marked out to take such an office of mere pity and charity? |
26156 | Am I actually in a room 360 years old?'' |
26156 | Am I not talking Fennimorically, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Am I to give away girl, land, and all to the fellow I raked out of his swamps? |
26156 | Am I to pester poor Honey if she does prefer the child she bred up to a stranger? |
26156 | And Honor Charlecote? |
26156 | And as Phoebe hesitated, with cheeks trebly beneficial to the Londoners, he kindly added,''Well, what is it? |
26156 | And did she? |
26156 | And even so, would not this be very soon?'' |
26156 | And how about this lad? |
26156 | And how was the spiritual to be brought before her? |
26156 | And may I have a whale?'' |
26156 | And must my trumpery thousand a year stand in the way? |
26156 | And now, Phoebe, is there anything you want to do? |
26156 | And now, if poor Lucy come, and it be not too late--''''Did he say anything?'' |
26156 | And now, what remains? |
26156 | And pray how do you prove this?'' |
26156 | And pray what more am I to do? |
26156 | And then the thought grew on her, why, since they were so thoroughly each other''s, why should they not marry, and be together to the last? |
26156 | And verily, but that Cilly takes it so easily, I should imagine it was her singing prodigy-- eh? |
26156 | And what am I going to do now? |
26156 | And what are you after next?'' |
26156 | And what did you do?'' |
26156 | And whenever you want me, let me be your son? |
26156 | And where was Mervyn himself? |
26156 | And who could quarrel with that fairy vision? |
26156 | And why are you to be saddled with Maria?'' |
26156 | And will you take me to Cilly and the sea? |
26156 | And yet, after this, what right have I to say I_ know_? |
26156 | And you like her the better?'' |
26156 | And you never spoke to one, did you, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Another verse, and she read:''Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols?'' |
26156 | Answer me, will that content you? |
26156 | Are n''t they inordinately clever?'' |
26156 | Are you come to fetch us because any one is ill?'' |
26156 | Are you going to join the_ menage_, and teach the A B C?'' |
26156 | Are you greatly displeased with me, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Are you mad?'' |
26156 | Are you satisfied now?'' |
26156 | Are you such a worldling base as to depend for your respectability on a paltry leathern trunk?'' |
26156 | Are you sure there was no drowning in the lake?'' |
26156 | Are you sure whether he went by Bray?'' |
26156 | Are you wet? |
26156 | As it is, my bond is-- what is it for, Lucy?'' |
26156 | As to Robert''s folly, have not I given up all that any rational being could stick at? |
26156 | At least he was the child of many prayers, and had not Lucilla returned to her changed beyond her hopes? |
26156 | Augusta, has Miss Charlecote been here this morning?'' |
26156 | Ay, but might not, said caution, her assumption of the charge lead their father to look on her as willing to become their mother? |
26156 | Bertha had waited for her sister, and clinging round her, said,''Well, Phoebe, are n''t you glad of us? |
26156 | Bertha, who slept in the same room with Phoebe, awoke her in the morning with the question,''What do you think is Miss Holmby''s name?'' |
26156 | But conveyance from the station for nearly two thousand? |
26156 | But do not you remember his carrying you into Woolstone- lane? |
26156 | But first, how are we to put off that fellow Fenton? |
26156 | But how are the two to live together when there is no natural conformity-- only undeserved benefits on one side and gratitude on the other?'' |
26156 | But how could he have guessed that she had rather not? |
26156 | But how good of you to come, Humfrey: where are you?'' |
26156 | But is Phoebe to go?'' |
26156 | But knowing this, and thinking it possible that an undoubting believer might have influenced Bertha, are you willing to trust your sisters to me?'' |
26156 | But the three days''fast--''''Two days, was it not?'' |
26156 | But what said cool morning? |
26156 | But what were you saying about the Holt?'' |
26156 | But what will become of the children?'' |
26156 | But what would that entail? |
26156 | But who dried Ponto''s?'' |
26156 | But who have they got with them?'' |
26156 | But wo n''t that best be done by minding your sister? |
26156 | But, Miss Charlecote, is Lucilla coming home for the Horticultural Show?'' |
26156 | But, Phoebe, how could you be so stupid as to go and do all this heap? |
26156 | But, will you go? |
26156 | By the bye, how is the old thing?'' |
26156 | By the bye, what do you think of this Irish scheme?'' |
26156 | CHAPTER XXIX Have you seen but a bright lily grow, Before rude hands have touched it? |
26156 | CHAPTER XXVII When will you marry? |
26156 | Ca n''t I tell him to catch a chaperon for me? |
26156 | Ca n''t you do it? |
26156 | Ca n''t you see how it is a part of the general disbelief in me to suppose that I come here only for London seasons, and such like? |
26156 | Call it January? |
26156 | Calthorp?'' |
26156 | Can you bear to talk of her when you know how you are treating her?'' |
26156 | Can you make her understand that Owen is far too ill to see them to- night? |
26156 | Can you not stay with me?'' |
26156 | Cecily at last spoke,''When will he come?'' |
26156 | Charlecote was his godfather, was he not?'' |
26156 | Charlecote?'' |
26156 | Conscience? |
26156 | Could he be ageing? |
26156 | Could he be unwell? |
26156 | Could not the estate be charged with an annuity to him?'' |
26156 | Could she have mortified him, or displeased him? |
26156 | Could she have refused him? |
26156 | Could that man, who looked so like Humfrey, be thinking how those firs would cut up into sleepers? |
26156 | Could the nameless one be Robert Fulmort? |
26156 | Could we not let him do the same by his lot at Beauchamp?'' |
26156 | Could you find out nothing, or did you not think it worth while to look?'' |
26156 | Could you possibly have been called Augusta, and did not Katherine quite pervade Miss Fennimore?'' |
26156 | Dear Miss Charlecote, do n''t you think, if the worst had been the marriage, you would have tried everything to comfort him? |
26156 | Dear little thing-- won''t you come to me?'' |
26156 | Depend upon it, every house in Wrapworth rings with it; and wo n''t it be more improving to have the poor thing''s grave to point the moral?'' |
26156 | Did ever a more innocent mischief- maker exist? |
26156 | Did he feel himself lonely? |
26156 | Did he underrate the Holt, the wretch, or was it civility? |
26156 | Did n''t I row them for using you so abominably? |
26156 | Did n''t I tell you I''ve got them here?'' |
26156 | Did n''t you get up into the pulpit?'' |
26156 | Did n''t you tell us that you had been to see the old party on business, and had spied the hackles walking about in his yard?'' |
26156 | Did not the case cry out to her to follow the promptings of her heart? |
26156 | Did she ask you?'' |
26156 | Did she know how completely her whole spirit and soul were surrendered to the worship of that devotion? |
26156 | Did you ever hear of anything so preposterous as this Irish business?'' |
26156 | Did you go and condemn any of my pets?'' |
26156 | Did you hear, Rashe? |
26156 | Did you know that I had been a fast young lady?'' |
26156 | Did you meet him?'' |
26156 | Did you mention the vacancy at Hiltonbury?'' |
26156 | Did you not know that he married my next neighbour, Augusta Mervyn, and that our properties touch? |
26156 | Did you not understand that we set up housekeeping separately upon his marriage?'' |
26156 | Did you see her face at the station?'' |
26156 | Did you tell him I was close by?'' |
26156 | Do n''t you feel yourself in Ireland, Rashe? |
26156 | Do n''t you know I''m the ninth, instead of the nineteenth- century man, under your wing? |
26156 | Do n''t you know how your uncle only wants to do him good, and to make him get well?'' |
26156 | Do n''t you remember her darling at Wrapworth? |
26156 | Do n''t you see? |
26156 | Do n''t you see?'' |
26156 | Do n''t you think it enough?'' |
26156 | Do n''t you think that''s a sign, Miss Fennimore?'' |
26156 | Do n''t you wish you may get it? |
26156 | Do not you think with me, Nora?'' |
26156 | Do you know anything of those, Miss Sandbrook? |
26156 | Do you know it, Humfrey?'' |
26156 | Do you know what we are? |
26156 | Do you mean that you could come out with me?'' |
26156 | Do you mean that you have been ferreting out some old scrape of mine?'' |
26156 | Do you not like him to make a sacrifice?'' |
26156 | Do you not see how names impress their own individuality? |
26156 | Do you remember what a swamp it was?'' |
26156 | Do you think I can help loving the creatures?'' |
26156 | Do you think I did not hear Mervyn storming like a lion?'' |
26156 | Do you think I do n''t know my way to Hiltonbury, or that I should not get welcome enough-- ay, and too much-- there?'' |
26156 | Do you think Miss Charlecote''s society will appreciate me, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Do you think anything will happen to me?'' |
26156 | Do you think he ought? |
26156 | Do you think there is any hope for us?'' |
26156 | Do you think those foreign wines would bring me down a little, or that they would make me low and sinking?'' |
26156 | Does Mrs. Prendergast hold the prejudice against pretty governesses?'' |
26156 | Does Robin like it?'' |
26156 | Does he guess?'' |
26156 | Does not Robert say so?'' |
26156 | Does not that prove what it costs me?'' |
26156 | Does your father know it?'' |
26156 | Eh, Juliana, what''s that?'' |
26156 | Fickle to her, or a falterer to my higher pledge? |
26156 | First or second? |
26156 | Five o''clock, Saturday?'' |
26156 | Fulmort, how are you?'' |
26156 | Giving a constrained smile, he asked,''Well, what next?'' |
26156 | Go on, Rashe; what were you saying?'' |
26156 | Great harm I have done this creature, eh?'' |
26156 | Grown old? |
26156 | Had he been taken with a fit of diffidence, and been less precipitate than he intended? |
26156 | Had she been infected by Bertha''s hesitation? |
26156 | Had she encouraged deceit by credulous trust? |
26156 | Had she lived to hear Humfrey''s new barn, with the verge boards conceded to her taste, called ramshackle? |
26156 | Had she never been tired before, that her heart should sink in this unaccountable way? |
26156 | Had the line snapped? |
26156 | Had you time for yours, Bertha?'' |
26156 | Has Mr. Calthorp been calling here?'' |
26156 | Has Robert mentioned her?'' |
26156 | Has a Mr. Calthorp been inquiring for us to- day?'' |
26156 | Has any one been putting things in your head?'' |
26156 | Has any one surmised who it can be?'' |
26156 | Has it made her very grim?'' |
26156 | Has n''t Owen turned up? |
26156 | Has the Fennimore got to her old tricks?'' |
26156 | Hastings?'' |
26156 | Have I brought a tremendous host to invade you? |
26156 | Have I made mischief between you, and put you apart?'' |
26156 | Have I not had enough to tame me?'' |
26156 | Have Mervyn and Cecily been there all the time of the evening service? |
26156 | Have n''t you seen how Cilly has run restive from babyhood? |
26156 | Have you a watch?'' |
26156 | Have you been washing your hands all this time after the murder?'' |
26156 | Have you brought the pig''s wool? |
26156 | Have you considered the feelings of Mr. Prendergast or your relations?'' |
26156 | Have you forgotten what it is to be under twenty- five?'' |
26156 | Have you seen F---?'' |
26156 | Have you seen a living creature?'' |
26156 | He did not seem to hear, and she demanded,''Is anything the matter? |
26156 | He offered himself to go to meet Owen, but Honor could not quite forgive the''_ Is that all_?'' |
26156 | He particularly dislikes--''''What?'' |
26156 | He stopped her with''Going to bed, eh? |
26156 | He was too ill to say much afterwards?'' |
26156 | He, the unworthy one? |
26156 | Highly proper in the old girl, is n''t it? |
26156 | Honor Charlecote?'' |
26156 | Honor to write up and say"the specimen is tame"? |
26156 | Honora sighed, but playfully said,''In which case he would have stayed?'' |
26156 | How about the endowment?'' |
26156 | How came it to be devised? |
26156 | How can I be wishing such things when I have promised to devote myself to Maria? |
26156 | How can you be such an ass, Charles? |
26156 | How could she, when her misery had been inflicted by such hands? |
26156 | How d''ye do, Miss Fulmort? |
26156 | How did he achieve it?'' |
26156 | How did it occur?'' |
26156 | How did you find her?'' |
26156 | How do you know? |
26156 | How has it been, my dear?'' |
26156 | How have you heard it?'' |
26156 | How is any one to believe in her fortune if she dresses in that twopenny- halfpenny fashion? |
26156 | How is the old dame, this summer?'' |
26156 | How much do you want? |
26156 | How was it with that inmost shrine where dwelt her heart and soul? |
26156 | How was the awaking to be managed? |
26156 | Humfrey Charlecote a wise man? |
26156 | Humfrey, how could you bring me to see such havoc? |
26156 | I am not so conceited as--''''As what?'' |
26156 | I have not slept into to- morrow, have I? |
26156 | I longed after it when it was out of reach, but now--''''What, my dear?'' |
26156 | I may tell her?'' |
26156 | I might have gone in for rank or fortune, as I liked; and how did I know that I was such a fool that I could not forget her? |
26156 | I only did not ask you, because I thought you had not hit it off with Rashe, or have you made it up?'' |
26156 | I say, Phoebe, can you bear the burden of a secret? |
26156 | I say, Phoebe, would you object to my taking Brown and Clay-- my two head boys? |
26156 | I say, Robin, shall you be man enough to read the service over me, just where we stood at poor Edna''s funeral?'' |
26156 | I say, what''s this about Miss Charlecote; will she do anything for him?'' |
26156 | I say,''she added at the door,''housemaids always come to be hired minus crinoline and flowers, is it the same with governesses?'' |
26156 | I suspect the principal parties settled it on that snowy Twelfth- day--''''But which of them, Owen?'' |
26156 | I want to know if Owen Sandbrook did n''t call you little Miss Precision?'' |
26156 | I wonder if I made too light of the line he took; yet what difference could I have made? |
26156 | If the secrets of every guest at a_ fete_ were told, would any be found unmixedly happy? |
26156 | If they cared for each other one rush, would not they have floated to bliss even on streams of gin?'' |
26156 | If you cast aside esteem and reliance, how can you expect to retain the affection you sometimes seem to prize?'' |
26156 | If you have erred, as I can not but fear, will you not let me try and smooth the way back?'' |
26156 | If you would not come and tell us, what could we do?'' |
26156 | Is Honor here?'' |
26156 | Is it all gossip?'' |
26156 | Is it my chastisement, or is it my training? |
26156 | Is it that you want a home, Lucy? |
26156 | Is it the little Henniker, who used to look as if he would dive under the table when you brought him from Westminster?'' |
26156 | Is it you?'' |
26156 | Is it your brother''s thought?'' |
26156 | Is n''t he a beauty?'' |
26156 | Is n''t it fun?'' |
26156 | Is not something visible behind the broad smooth bole of yonder beech tree? |
26156 | Is that all?'' |
26156 | Is that it?'' |
26156 | Is that rascal not paying his rent?'' |
26156 | Is that the carriage? |
26156 | Is that too far for you? |
26156 | Is there any harm in that? |
26156 | Is this weak? |
26156 | Is your sister quite well again? |
26156 | It is only second best, to be sure; but do n''t you see your own emancipation?'' |
26156 | It is settled?'' |
26156 | It is very uncharitable of me, but why will he look at me as if he were asking my pardon? |
26156 | It looks on the Thames?'' |
26156 | It was true, then? |
26156 | It was, then?'' |
26156 | It will be right--''''But''( and a very different but it was this time)''what am I thinking about? |
26156 | L.?'' |
26156 | Let''s hear all, Cilly-- how, when, and where?'' |
26156 | Lucilla, laying her hand on the victim''s arm, said,''Come, do n''t be nervous, or what will you do to- morrow? |
26156 | Matter enough, is n''t it? |
26156 | Matthew''s?'' |
26156 | May I come for them at five o''clock?'' |
26156 | May I take him for a little while to my brother? |
26156 | May I?'' |
26156 | May we not stay till that time, and spend our Christmas together?'' |
26156 | Mervyn, how could you?'' |
26156 | Miss Charlecote is not going away?'' |
26156 | Miss Fennimore says it is the safest way--''''Where is it?'' |
26156 | Miss Honora, when will it be convenient to you to take my account of the plate?'' |
26156 | Miss Sandbrook, do you class me among your ordinary acquaintance?'' |
26156 | Miss Sandbrook, shall you be far away from me?'' |
26156 | Mr. Prendergast, why did you not come sooner?'' |
26156 | Mrs. Jones? |
26156 | Music? |
26156 | Must your brothers be consulted?'' |
26156 | My allowance? |
26156 | My father''s?'' |
26156 | My throat is like a turnpike road? |
26156 | Nay, what does it contain that I have a right to care for now? |
26156 | Nay, who could tell what was best for him after all? |
26156 | Never mind that-- let me hear of Honor-- are you with her?'' |
26156 | No one else?'' |
26156 | No; lovers were inexplicable people, and after all, what could she say? |
26156 | No? |
26156 | Not dead?'' |
26156 | Not given up the old fashion?'' |
26156 | Not the married sisters, I suppose? |
26156 | Not the one with the auburn hair?'' |
26156 | Not-- Lucy?'' |
26156 | Nothing? |
26156 | Now, I put it to you, Phoebe, has she any right to be cast off in this fashion?'' |
26156 | Now, Robert, on your honour, has not the mother been working on you?'' |
26156 | Now, ca n''t you see that I may want the house to myself?'' |
26156 | Now, seriously, my good cousin Honor, do you candidly expect any harm to befall us?'' |
26156 | O Robin, can you bear it?'' |
26156 | O what is the matter with poor Maria?'' |
26156 | Of course he will be honourable about it-- and-- and perhaps never dare to say another word till he has made his fortune-- and when will that ever be? |
26156 | Oh, why did I go? |
26156 | Oh, will you bear with me again, though I do n''t deserve it?'' |
26156 | On the very platform, in that moment of bustle, Phoebe conscientiously and reasonably began,''Will you tell me how much you mean by that?'' |
26156 | Once Phoebe inquired in a low, awe- struck voice,''Shall I be put on oath?'' |
26156 | One of their wild notions, is not it? |
26156 | Or suppose he had forgotten his cover, and then should think the absence of a letter her fault? |
26156 | Or was it a plot of Lady Acton''s malevolence for hunting Phoebe away from her home? |
26156 | Ought I to give you a specimen of my pronunciation?'' |
26156 | Owen dear, come back, do n''t you see the mud? |
26156 | Owen stepped back to judge of the paleness, and Robert contrived to say,''Can not you grant me a few words, Lucy?'' |
26156 | Owen, what should you think of managing the property for me?'' |
26156 | Papa?'' |
26156 | Parsons?'' |
26156 | Pendys?'' |
26156 | Perhaps I had better make it Mrs. Honora Charlecote at once, and get a high cap, a rod, and a pair of spectacles, eh? |
26156 | Perhaps you can bear it, but does not your mind ache, as if it had been held down all this time?'' |
26156 | Phoebe gave a faint smile, and said,''What was Mr. Charlecote like, mamma, whose brass was put up the day Robert was locked into the church?'' |
26156 | Phoebe, do you still think me as hateful as I used to be?'' |
26156 | Phoebe, till we come to the infinite, how shall the finite pronounce what is wrong?'' |
26156 | Phoebe, what interloper have you caught? |
26156 | Phoebe? |
26156 | Pilate''s question,''What is truth?'' |
26156 | Poor Mr. Prendergast humbly apologized for his betrayal; but had not Owen been told of the engagement? |
26156 | Poor child, how am I to tell her?'' |
26156 | Pray what may be the occupation of your more serious moments?'' |
26156 | Pray, what would Augusta say to you?'' |
26156 | Prendergast?'' |
26156 | Ready to leave this hot- vapour- bath of a hole?'' |
26156 | Robert pressed her to him and kissed her fervently, and she found voice to say,''What is it? |
26156 | Robert, were you displeased with me?'' |
26156 | Robert, when dancing would be one chance?'' |
26156 | Robin, do you think we could have dear Miss Fennimore again?'' |
26156 | Robin, is it not delightful?'' |
26156 | Sandbrook?'' |
26156 | Seriously, what damage did you anticipate from a little civility?'' |
26156 | Set my heart on them? |
26156 | Shall I advance your September allowance?'' |
26156 | Shall I feel as if he would laugh at me for my shrinking, or approve me for my resolution?'' |
26156 | Shall I go to Miss Charlecote? |
26156 | Shall I leave a message as I go home?'' |
26156 | Shall I meet him at the beginning of the vacation, and see what he can do with Lucy? |
26156 | Shall I tell Miss Fennimore? |
26156 | Shall you dislike looking on?'' |
26156 | She flirted with him all the winter; but I fancy she did n''t give you much trouble when he came to the point, eh, sir?'' |
26156 | She gave it up at last, and contented herself with asking,''And where do you come from?'' |
26156 | She had met the Baronet in the passage, and was accosted by him with,''Do you ever do such a thing as take a turn on that terrace?'' |
26156 | She had nearly given up listening in despair, when she heard,''Pistols? |
26156 | She lets lodgings, does not she?'' |
26156 | She longed for a sight of St. Matthew''s; and what would it not have been to see the two brothers there like brothers indeed? |
26156 | She must feel that, Phoebe, must not she? |
26156 | She says I sha n''t be afraid when the time comes; but oh!--so many, many faces-- all their eyes looking; and where is he?--why does n''t he look? |
26156 | She turned her words into''Do you think I am doing so-- in a wrong way?'' |
26156 | She was sure that his attention was far away from Rashe''s long story, and she abruptly interrupted it with,''How came you here, Owen?'' |
26156 | Should she venture a letter to him? |
26156 | Should you like to see it?'' |
26156 | Should you object to tell me under what circumstances?'' |
26156 | Shouting and waving of hats will never cease, the gentlemen are as crazy as the boys, and what will become of the train? |
26156 | So Miss Charlecote has taken a fancy to you, has she? |
26156 | So when the waiter came up, Miss Charteris demanded,''Has Mr. Calthorp been calling here?'' |
26156 | So you had my telegram?'' |
26156 | Some of her misery was for Owen, but would the sting have been so acute had Robert Fulmort been more than the true friend? |
26156 | St. Cecilia''s? |
26156 | Still, did the test of idolatry lie here? |
26156 | Strangely enough, the question,''What would Mr. Charlecote have thought?'' |
26156 | Surely, having a right to think about you can not do so?'' |
26156 | Take away that Robin, will you, Owen?'' |
26156 | Taken at once from the heavenly Feast on earth to the glory above, could this be called sudden death? |
26156 | Tell me, is not my brain softening or weakening? |
26156 | That Robin has not flown to Wrapworth and back since three o''clock?'' |
26156 | That cousin Horatia, to whom she is so much attached, losing both her parents, how could she do otherwise than be with her?'' |
26156 | That the others should be written to? |
26156 | That was what made her stay so quietly, was it?'' |
26156 | The balance must not be weighted by a woman''s hand, when ready enough to incline to her side; and why should she add to his pain, if he must refuse? |
26156 | The poor man''s sallowness had become almost livid, and in half- sobbing words he exclaimed--''Is it so? |
26156 | The repentance was proving itself true by its fruits, and who could be anxious because the gladness of forgiveness overpowered the pain of contrition? |
26156 | The wearisome visit was drawing to a close when Captain Charteris began--''Well, Miss Charlecote, have you thought over my proposal?'' |
26156 | Then I am afraid it must have been--''''What?'' |
26156 | Then Maria, who was unusually demonstrative, put another question--''Are you ill? |
26156 | Then you are not satisfied? |
26156 | Then you did not know he was with us?'' |
26156 | Then, after a longer stammer than usual,''How should you like a French sister- in- law?'' |
26156 | Then, as he made no reply,''Tell me, do you think my acquiescence did harm?'' |
26156 | Then, if I am asked out anywhere, may I go?'' |
26156 | There was a silence, broken by this strange girl saying,''Well, what are you going to do to me?'' |
26156 | There, help Miss Charlecote in; where can Owen be dawdling? |
26156 | There, sir, are you satisfied?'' |
26156 | There; are you satisfied?'' |
26156 | They both laughed, and turning to him, she said,''Now, could I? |
26156 | They were man and woman, and what availed his muscles against her will? |
26156 | They''ve cut you?'' |
26156 | This is my bonny little housekeeper,''he added,''and here''s a sturdy fellow for four years old, is not he?'' |
26156 | To Mary Cranford''s? |
26156 | To Wrapworth? |
26156 | To keep us all?'' |
26156 | Very sagacious-- eh, Pheebe?'' |
26156 | Vineyards? |
26156 | Virtue or vice?'' |
26156 | Was Lucy ever bent upon a naughty trick without being doubly incited by the pleasure of showing that she cared not for her younger brother?'' |
26156 | Was he not very glad?'' |
26156 | Was he repenting at the sight of what he had done? |
26156 | Was it Colonel Cawthorne, of the Royal Hussars, ma''am? |
26156 | Was it a misfortune to Phoebe to have been so much refined by education as to be grated on by the vulgar tone of those nearest to her? |
26156 | Was it a relief to that irreflective nature to believe the die irrevocably cast, and the responsibility of decision over? |
26156 | Was it a shark or a mad dog?'' |
26156 | Was it a very affecting parting, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Was it all poor Honor''s tender softening that took off the edge to our imaginations?'' |
26156 | Was it coming? |
26156 | Was it for this that she had risked the love that had been her own from childhood, and broken with the friend to whom her father had commended her? |
26156 | Was it real improvement? |
26156 | Was it the mere effect on her sympathies that bore in on her mind that Truth existed, and was grasped by the mother and daughter? |
26156 | Was it true that they had packed up all the liqueurs?'' |
26156 | Was it wrong to feel so ungrateful to a person exclusively devoted to her entertainment for that entire evening? |
26156 | Was not she one made to learn; to lean; to admire; to support; to enhance every joy; to soften every sorrow of the object of her devotion? |
26156 | Was not some chaff going on one day about the heiresses boxed up in the west wing? |
26156 | Was not that enough to go to Ireland and write a witty tour for? |
26156 | Was she humbled enough? |
26156 | Was she only good- humoured because nothing touched her? |
26156 | Was she only making Miss Charlecote an excuse? |
26156 | Was she still unforgiving for Mervyn''s rejection, or had she a feeling against visiting those who had not taken notice of her family before? |
26156 | Was she studying''come- out''life as she watched her sisters surrounded by the gentlemen who presently herded round the piano? |
26156 | Was the letter to be answered? |
26156 | Was this courting him? |
26156 | Was this forgiving Cecily really fancying that her sorrows had been nothing worse than those incidental to a long attachment? |
26156 | Was this what he had sacrificed everything for? |
26156 | We like to be magnanimous, do n''t we? |
26156 | Well, at least you dried them? |
26156 | Well, but the Honor-- the old sweet Honey-- is she her very self?'' |
26156 | Well, did you not think of the bells?'' |
26156 | Well, what''s the use of having a governess, if you do n''t know how to write a letter?'' |
26156 | Were there not thoughts and prayers for another bride, elsewhere kneeling? |
26156 | Were they lilies of the valley for little Mary?'' |
26156 | Were they not given us for better uses?'' |
26156 | Were you afraid?'' |
26156 | What are the Fulmorts? |
26156 | What are you going to do to- morrow? |
26156 | What are you looking at?'' |
26156 | What are you talking of? |
26156 | What became of her? |
26156 | What can Mr. Saville mean?--The supplies? |
26156 | What can be the matter with me?'' |
26156 | What can she have to say?'' |
26156 | What could he do? |
26156 | What could that imply? |
26156 | What could this encounter have done to her? |
26156 | What did he say? |
26156 | What did he think of us for coming here?'' |
26156 | What did she say?'' |
26156 | What do you advise me to do, Miss Fennimore? |
26156 | What do you know? |
26156 | What do you mean should become of you? |
26156 | What do you think Owen did?'' |
26156 | What do you think of Howth and Ireland''s Eye, the place where Kirwan murdered his wife?'' |
26156 | What do you think of an invitation to Castle Blanch?'' |
26156 | What do you think, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | What does that mean? |
26156 | What had she been about? |
26156 | What has Rashe been doing to herself? |
26156 | What has brought you back?'' |
26156 | What have you to say for yourself?'' |
26156 | What if she had delayed till too late? |
26156 | What is it? |
26156 | What is the matter with her?'' |
26156 | What is time to trust?'' |
26156 | What is your name?'' |
26156 | What made Owen raise his eyes at that moment, just so that she met them? |
26156 | What made every one seem so dull and stupid, and the comings and goings so oppressive, as if everything would be hateful till Christmas? |
26156 | What made you go out in that strange manner?'' |
26156 | What made you think so?'' |
26156 | What may not be passing even now? |
26156 | What more is there to do?'' |
26156 | What next?'' |
26156 | What now, what frightens you?'' |
26156 | What o''clock is it?'' |
26156 | What reasonable person heeded what a young man might have done when he was sowing his wild oats? |
26156 | What right has she to be pining and complaining after him? |
26156 | What shall I do when you have left?'' |
26156 | What shall I do with it? |
26156 | What shall you want for the journey?'' |
26156 | What use is it to see her as undisciplined-- as unfit as ever? |
26156 | What was it?'' |
26156 | What was so natural as for her to go at once to talk over the two weddings with her dear old friend? |
26156 | What was the use of a wise man, if he were not to be let alone to make up his mind? |
26156 | What was the use of thinking? |
26156 | What was the use of trying to disguise from her the witchery of her piquant prettiness? |
26156 | What was there in those faltering accents that impressed her with reality? |
26156 | What was this one doing wool- gathering in Egypt?'' |
26156 | What will come of it?'' |
26156 | What would St. Dunstan have been minus the black gentleman''s nose, or St. Kevin but for Kathleen? |
26156 | What would become of his wild scholars without him, and who would superintend his buildings? |
26156 | What would have become of me if I had been left to the poor Castle Blanch people? |
26156 | What would she gain by it?'' |
26156 | What would the Miss Berrilees have said, where I was at school at Bath, if one of their young ladies had talked of wanting to marry a wise man?'' |
26156 | What''s all this, coming in at the omnibus windows? |
26156 | What''s all this?'' |
26156 | What''s become of Rashe?'' |
26156 | What''s come to me, that I ca n''t go on so contentedly? |
26156 | What''s that worth? |
26156 | What''s the harm? |
26156 | What''s the matter? |
26156 | What''s the post- mark? |
26156 | What, Fulmort, not quite grilled in the Wulstonian oven?'' |
26156 | What, Phoebe, taking it to heart? |
26156 | What, have n''t you done that, yet?'' |
26156 | What, not now? |
26156 | What, tired and giving in?'' |
26156 | What, where poor Anne Acton was boarded? |
26156 | What, you came for the sake of a brown study? |
26156 | What, you, the preacher of sacrifice, wishing to see your best pupil throw up your pet work for the sake of a little trumpery crushed fire- fly?'' |
26156 | What_ is_ truth? |
26156 | When am I to be trotted out for inspection?'' |
26156 | When are you coming again?'' |
26156 | When shall I come back?'' |
26156 | When the sounds ceased, Owen looked up to listen, and Robert said,''Still no consciousness?'' |
26156 | When will that be? |
26156 | Where are those ivy- leaves you had yesterday-- real, were n''t they?'' |
26156 | Where are you?'' |
26156 | Where can she be? |
26156 | Where could it have been?'' |
26156 | Where did Juliana tell me she had heard of Lucy Sandbrook?'' |
26156 | Where do you draw an obvious border line? |
26156 | Where had erst the image of Owen Sandbrook stood? |
26156 | Where has he been all this time? |
26156 | Where is she?'' |
26156 | Where should he go? |
26156 | Where was I? |
26156 | Where was now the image of the boy? |
26156 | Where was the heart that could fail of being touched by so long a course of forbearance and consideration? |
26156 | Where''s my little niece?'' |
26156 | Which is it?'' |
26156 | Which of you two ladies am I to believe?'' |
26156 | Which part did you inhabit?'' |
26156 | Who but my wise sister and Rashe? |
26156 | Who can be of use here? |
26156 | Who can have telegraphed about Augusta?'' |
26156 | Who can it be?'' |
26156 | Who could it have been?'' |
26156 | Who has been telling infamous tales of my house?'' |
26156 | Who is doing it? |
26156 | Who is going to take you? |
26156 | Who is going? |
26156 | Who told you otherwise?'' |
26156 | Who would have thought you would be so heedless of her?'' |
26156 | Who?'' |
26156 | Whom is she expecting?'' |
26156 | Why ca n''t I help it? |
26156 | Why ca n''t people let girls dress dolls and trundle hoops, as they used to do?'' |
26156 | Why could she not be more glad that her sisters were coming home, and dear Miss Fennimore? |
26156 | Why could she not have stayed away, instead of meddling where she was not wanted? |
26156 | Why did I never find it out before? |
26156 | Why did Lucilla repeat those words so often? |
26156 | Why did you not tell us before?'' |
26156 | Why do I believe it only too late? |
26156 | Why do n''t they ask me to go to Paris with them? |
26156 | Why do n''t you build a model farm- house, and let me make the design?'' |
26156 | Why had not my father the sense to have married her? |
26156 | Why had she not written a note about that hideous hearth- rug? |
26156 | Why is this trial sent me, since I am bound to the scheme that precludes my marriage? |
26156 | Why should he be left to his solitude for this final year? |
26156 | Why should you deprive me of that satisfaction? |
26156 | Why should you now?'' |
26156 | Why, have you no individuality, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Why, of all her many instructors, had none touched her like poor, ignorant, feeble- minded Mrs. Fulmort? |
26156 | Why, otherwise, did he seem so sorry I was not poor? |
26156 | Why, where''s the boy gone? |
26156 | Will Miss Fennimore kindly let you have a walk with me this evening?'' |
26156 | Will not she go, Charles?'' |
26156 | Will not you be the same?'' |
26156 | Will nothing else satisfy her?'' |
26156 | Will that do, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Will the next train be soon enough?'' |
26156 | Will you be mine, too, and let me help you, if I can? |
26156 | Will you be so very kind? |
26156 | Will you come and show me what to do? |
26156 | Will you come with us, Lucy?'' |
26156 | Will you find out what it shall be, and let me know? |
26156 | Will you give me the addresses where I may inquire, sir?'' |
26156 | Will you let me go alone? |
26156 | Will you not credit the anxiety that irresistibly impelled me to be ever at hand in case you should need a protector?'' |
26156 | Will you not help me? |
26156 | Will you not let me?'' |
26156 | Will you oblige me with her name?'' |
26156 | Will you stay and keep house for me at home, or be Augusta''s companion? |
26156 | Will you tell Phoebe?'' |
26156 | Wo n''t I soon have him repenting of his outbreak?'') |
26156 | Wo n''t you shake hands, and tell me you are sorry for me?'' |
26156 | Wo n''t you, Phoebe? |
26156 | Worship? |
26156 | Worthy man, did he think that Wrapworth needed that sight to assure them of what each tongue had wagged about for many a day? |
26156 | Would I have him give up his aims, and settle down in the loveliest village in England? |
26156 | Would Robert?'' |
26156 | Would it announce an engagement, or would it promise a visit on which her fate would turn, or would it be only a business letter on her money matters? |
26156 | Would it be Sabbath- breaking to perpetrate a sketch?'' |
26156 | Would it be dutiful, so young as I am?'' |
26156 | Would n''t Miss Charlecote see it so?'' |
26156 | Would no one stand up for him? |
26156 | Wulstan''s?'' |
26156 | Yes, but did her dear old friend want her, when these two young men had put an end to her solitude? |
26156 | Yes, you see I know that story; which was your window?'' |
26156 | Yet do I repent? |
26156 | Yet how could you forgive his declaration from so unequal a position?'' |
26156 | Yet it was at the words of Moses that the king''s heart was hardened; and what was the end? |
26156 | Yet what costly gift could have fulfilled its mission like that one? |
26156 | Yet who would have suspected that rosy, honest apple face of any grievance, save that her partner was missing? |
26156 | Yet, will it be believed? |
26156 | You appreciated his self- denial, I thought? |
26156 | You are both come to tea?'' |
26156 | You are coming home with me?'' |
26156 | You are doing so, returning me good for-- shall I say evil?'' |
26156 | You are not vexed?'' |
26156 | You coming?'' |
26156 | You did not know that my aunt Holmby is my mother''s sister? |
26156 | You do n''t favour it, Phoebe? |
26156 | You do n''t mean that you exist without pale ale?'' |
26156 | You do n''t mean that? |
26156 | You do n''t think God will be hard with me, do you? |
26156 | You do not mean to imply that I have not his perfect confidence, or do you think I have managed him wrongly? |
26156 | You have all the power and consequence here, and are fully master of all; but why should not poor mamma live in her own house?'' |
26156 | You have not consented to this Hampstead scheme?'' |
26156 | You little simpleton, do you imagine that we distil the juices of little babies?'' |
26156 | You made no arrangement for her getting home last night?'' |
26156 | You must have advantages, or how are you to marry?'' |
26156 | You never listened to him?'' |
26156 | You saw that it was earnest, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | You see everything, I know; but has Miss Fennimore guessed?'' |
26156 | You think you have the whip- hand of me, do you? |
26156 | You were not going to London to- night?'' |
26156 | You will give me holidays here, wo n''t you? |
26156 | You will let her be your friend?'' |
26156 | You will not desert Bertha? |
26156 | You''ll go?'' |
26156 | You''re not getting wet, I hope?'' |
26156 | Your brothers?'' |
26156 | Your first quadrille is promised to Owen, is it not?'' |
26156 | Your friends go to- day, do n''t they? |
26156 | Your nosegay, is it? |
26156 | _ Idylls of the King_''Can you come and take a turn in the Temple- gardens, Phoebe?'' |
26156 | a family council, or Honor Charlecote?'' |
26156 | and if your papa and mamma give leave, come and see me, and play with the little girl and boy who live with me?'' |
26156 | are you cold?'' |
26156 | asked Phoebe;''why have you not been to her? |
26156 | because it is not exactly a pretty flower?'' |
26156 | but did not I tell you all about him-- your cousin, Honor? |
26156 | but ere she had made three bounds towards him, his face brought her to a pause, and, in an awe- struck voice, she asked,''Robert, what is it?'' |
26156 | but if it be his work to try? |
26156 | but she still shivered; then striving to catch hold of the broken threads of her philosophy,''How one''s imagination is a prey to-- to-- what is it? |
26156 | but, Phoebe, if I''m to grieve nobody, what''s to become of poor Rashe, you little selfish woman?'' |
26156 | can this be falling in love? |
26156 | continued Mr. Fulmort, puzzling, as he held the letter far off--''engagement to dear-- dear Devil, does she say?'' |
26156 | could that have come to anything?'' |
26156 | cried Bertha, petulantly,''believe what?'' |
26156 | cried Phoebe;''what put that into your head?'' |
26156 | did I ever teach you it was not?'' |
26156 | did they make you cry? |
26156 | did you not know the living was in Miss Charlecote''s gift?'' |
26156 | do n''t you know the feeling of wanting to have one''s treasure all to oneself for a little moment before showing it? |
26156 | eh?'' |
26156 | from you who know all about it; but did n''t I tell her plenty about Mervyn''s kindness to me? |
26156 | had she got well?'' |
26156 | he is a child whom it is a privilege to train, and I do n''t think I have spoilt him yet, do you?'' |
26156 | how came you to think of it?'' |
26156 | how did I miss him?'' |
26156 | how does he get on? |
26156 | is Lolly really moving before I have softened down the edge of my ingratitude?'' |
26156 | is it childish indifference? |
26156 | it''s you, is it?'' |
26156 | may I tell Bertha?'' |
26156 | must it be so?'' |
26156 | no alteration in consequence of the invitation? |
26156 | no finery required? |
26156 | only do n''t you know how quiet and good any one belonging to a clergyman should be?'' |
26156 | or was her frivolity preying on his spirits? |
26156 | photograph or not?'' |
26156 | said Bertha, meeting her on the stairs,''do you know what you missed?'' |
26156 | said Lucy;''and now,''turning away as usual from sentiment,''what shall I say to Mrs. Bostock? |
26156 | said she, turning round to the gaping and discontented collection,''have we used you so ill? |
26156 | she said, with mournful playfulness,''or that my uncertain tenure does not make them the greater darlings?'' |
26156 | she will only want a word of kindness; but if you are so fanciful, will it do if I put a cover in the post? |
26156 | sir, without grace, where are we? |
26156 | smiled Mr. Prendergast, pressing her caressing hand in his great, lank grasp;''what for?'' |
26156 | so it was you, was it? |
26156 | so the godly mean to rescue you, do they?'' |
26156 | that intolerable woman is here, is she? |
26156 | the distiller?'' |
26156 | the old story-- the other f-- flirting, is it?'' |
26156 | there, mamma; do you hear that?'' |
26156 | very much,''rather ruefully;''at least it would be if--''''If you had any partners, eh, poor child? |
26156 | was he going to run away on family likenesses? |
26156 | were you not sensible of your own value in that respect?'' |
26156 | what are last feelings and words? |
26156 | what did Mr. Parsons say? |
26156 | what did you put out the light for?'' |
26156 | what more is wanting?'' |
26156 | what should I feel if not for you? |
26156 | what will become of it?'' |
26156 | what will he do? |
26156 | what''s this? |
26156 | what''s up?'' |
26156 | what, alone?'' |
26156 | where do you lodge? |
26156 | where''s the young lady? |
26156 | who will save me?'' |
26156 | why can not Mervyn be like Robert? |
26156 | why do n''t they treat the Thames as they do the Liffey?'' |
26156 | why should their meetings be so prudentially chaperoned? |
26156 | with a good- humoured air of affront,''you thought me serious? |
26156 | would I not?'' |
26156 | would not she miss her little moonbeam? |
26156 | you do n''t guess who it was?'' |
26156 | you had no fits nor struggles?'' |
