19342 | What does all this mean? 19342 All these make a body of evidence which will assist us in answering the question, What is hypnotism? 19342 And then, again, in the present day, has not the designation of an''hypnotical subject''become almost a social position? 19342 But after all, as it cures, let us make the most of it''? 19342 But is it enough to enable us to produce an a priori negation? 19342 Can we by plunging the subject in hypnotical sleep, feel sure of what he may affirm? 19342 Do n''t you see I correct these? 19342 Does it necessarily follow that discarnate spirits gave her the information? 19342 He said:You have no feeling in it, have you?" |

1638 | How are you to act? |
1638 | Is this not absolutely in accordance with psychic law as we know it? |
1638 | Now, of course, we are at once confronted with the obvious objection-- how do we know that these messages are really from beyond? |

34475 | CHAPTER X. MATERIALIZED FORMS-- HOW SHALL WE MEET THEM? |
34475 | Can it be, said I to myself, that this beautiful girl, so charming and graceful, so full of life and intelligence, is truly a spirit? |
34475 | I know how two got in, but where did the other two come from? |
34475 | I said,"For what?" |
34475 | I said,"I do not remember you; did I ever see you before?" |

34475 | Was I deceived,--laboring under a state of hallucination? |
34475 | Was it mind- reading? |

51743 | And who would now be so simple as to think of spirits when the medium was not searched? |
51743 | Are there not certain conditions for the appearance of all scientific phenomena, they ask us? |
51743 | Are we to see no spots on the egregious"Dr."Monck, who pretended that he was taken from his bed in Bristol and put to bed in Swindon by spirit hands? |

51743 | Blavatsky? |
51743 | Blavatsky? |
51743 | But does Sir Arthur never read the_ Proceedings of the Society for Psychical Research_? |
51743 | But how could it be done if the plate was never in the hands of the photographer? |

51743 | Has your child been torn from you? |
51743 | How had he smuggled them into the room? |
51743 | How is it possible, he will ask, that so many distinguished men have given their names to the movement if it is all fraudulent? |
51743 | IS SPIRITUALISM BASED ON FRAUD? |
51743 | Is not darkness a condition of certain scientific processes? |
51743 | Is there any need to settle whether we shall live after death? |
51743 | Must we forfeit this new hope that we may see them again? |
51743 | Now, which of these were ever"white"? |
51743 | Was Charles Williams white? |
51743 | Was Colchester, who was detected and exposed, white? |
51743 | Was Florence Cook, the pupil of Herne( the transporter of Mrs. Guppy at sixty miles an hour) and bewitcher of Sir W. Crookes, white? |

51743 | Was she ruined? |
51743 | Well, who are they? |
51743 | Were Bastian and Taylor white? |
51743 | What can be said for Sir W. Crookes? |
51743 | What chance has the ordinary inquirer, much less the eager Spiritualist, against guile of this description? |

51743 | Who could doubt either the word or the competence of the Chief Judge of the Supreme Consular Court of China and Japan? |
51743 | Who in England knew anything about Piet Botha and his death? |
51743 | Who is this mysterious lady? |
51743 | Why not simply_ imagine_ that the dead still live, and save the guinea? |
51743 | Will he ask why? |
44349 | ''Look; what is the matter with him?'' 44349 ''What is the meaning of this?'' |
44349 | Are you confident that the knots are securely tied? |
44349 | But if we are to reject this idea, which is the first which ordinary analogies would suggest, what are we to put in its place? 44349 Can he have forgotten me?" |
44349 | Can you perform such a miracle? |
44349 | Do you feel the table raising? |
44349 | Do you know the medium Slade? |
44349 | Have you prepared any slips with the names of friends, relatives, or others, who have passed into spirit life, with questions for them to answer? |
44349 | How did you do it? |
44349 | If a man die, shall he live again? |
44349 | My fate? |
44349 | What do you think of Dr. Slade''s slate tests? |
44349 | What is his name? |
44349 | What is the matter? |
44349 | ''You recognize that name, do you not?'' |
44349 | ( You may call him a_ wizard_, what does it matter to him?) |
44349 | Are we to regard the Creator''s work as like that of a child, who builds houses out of blocks, just for the pleasure of knocking them down? |
44349 | B.-- When and where did you die? |
44349 | Blavatsky, where was Mrs. Tingley? |
44349 | But how is the writing done on the slate in the second test? |
44349 | But how? |
44349 | But in this test the slate was not in his possession; how then could the writing be accomplished? |
44349 | But is this so? |
44349 | But suppose the medium relates facts that were never in the possession of the sitter, what are we to say then? |
44349 | But why go to science for such a demonstration? |
44349 | Can telepathy account for C''s knowledge? |
44349 | Can words describe it? |
44349 | He and his wife thought a great deal of my mother, and frequently stopped me on the street to inquire,"How is Mary?" |
44349 | He asked himself the question:"''Why was the sound of the silver bell not heard at once, but only after she had left the room and come back again?''" |
44349 | He looks at you and calls"Mary,--how is Mary?" |
44349 | He says:"Is this telepathic action an ordinary case of action from a center of disturbance? |
44349 | How did you get hold of it?'' |
44349 | How is it done? |
44349 | I replied,"but how are they done?" |
44349 | I sat down, whereupon he seated himself opposite me, remarking as he did so,"Have you brought slates with you?" |
44349 | If I should move my feet ever so little, you would know it, would you not?" |
44349 | If telepathy does not enter into these cases, what does? |
44349 | If this be so, why the attempts at_ disguise_, and bungling attempts at that? |
44349 | Is it equally diffused in all directions? |
44349 | Is it like the light of a candle or the light of the sun which radiates equally into space in every direction at the same time? |
44349 | Is there any such material guide in the case of telepathy? |
44349 | J.-- Where did you die, and from what disease? |
44349 | Now, tell me, is it an easy task for an amateur to tie a man up off- hand with a rope three yards long, in a very secure way? |
44349 | Sealed letters? |
44349 | The surprising feature about the above case was the alleged spirit communication,"Mary-- how is Mary?" |
44349 | Then how is it done? |
44349 | To B. G.-- Can you recall any of the conversations we had together on the B. and P. R. R. cars? |
44349 | To Len-- Tell me the cause of your death, and the circumstances surrounding it? |

44349 | What is Theosophy?_ 237_ III. |
44349 | When I finished it I went to her and said:''Where in the world did you get that quotation?'' |
44349 | Will you help me? |
44349 | said C--,"is there a spirit present?" |
439 | Raymondand"Do Thoughts Perish?" |
439 | And what is the punishment of the undeveloped soul? |
439 | And why? |
439 | Are these fruits from the Devil''s tree, you timid orthodox critic? |
439 | Are these the habiliments of heaven?" |
439 | CHAPTER V IS IT THE SECOND DAWN? |
439 | CONTENTS CHAPTER I THE TWO NEEDFUL READJUSTMENTS II THE DAWNING OF THE LIGHT III THE GREAT ARGUMENT IV THE COMING WORLD V IS IT THE SECOND DAWN? |
439 | Can any reasonable system of telepathy explain how Miss Cameron discovered the intimate points characteristic of young Gaylord? |
439 | Can any theologian give a reason for such an action? |
439 | Can we not see, then, what was the inner reason for the war? |
439 | Could our modern speculation, forced upon us by the facts, be more tersely stated? |
439 | Have you passed long? |
439 | How can this be explained? |
439 | How can you control the statement of this medium who is consciously or unconsciously pretending to inspiration?" |
439 | How did the Florida doctor see his friend? |
439 | How did the hashish victim see his own unconscious body? |
439 | How is any critic to get beyond these facts save by ignoring or misrepresenting them? |
439 | How, we may well ask, can it see without the natural organs? |
439 | Is it an unreasonable vision? |
439 | Is it in any way opposed to just principles? |
439 | Is it rather some coagulation of ether which introduces an absolutely new substance into our world? |
439 | Is not this the very strangest and most inexplicable thing that has ever yet been observed by human eyes? |
439 | Mr. O.: Anything more? |
439 | Mr. O.: How did you pass? |
439 | Mr. O.: What is it? |
439 | Mr. O.: What were you? |
439 | Now, what can the fair- minded inquirer say to such a story as that-- one of many, but for the moment we are concentrating upon it? |
439 | Now, what is this second body, and how does it fit into modern religious revelation? |
439 | The question then arises if Home concentrated all his force upon transferring such a power how long would that power last? |
439 | Was Mr. Crookes a blasphemous liar? |
439 | Was he honestly mistaken? |
439 | We may well ask why should such great results arise from such petty sources? |
439 | What are we to make of such phenomena? |
439 | What did He do? |
439 | What do the messages from beyond say about these? |
439 | What has any critic to say to that? |
439 | What weight has science of that sort? |
439 | Which has come out of it worst, the Lutheran Prussian, the Catholic Bavarian, or the peoples who have been nurtured by the Greek Church? |
439 | Who are you? |
439 | Why should some have this power and some not? |
439 | Why these particular ones? |
439 | Why was He groaning? |
439 | Why was this tremendous experience forced upon mankind? |
36730 | One can only answer:''How do you define a ghost?'' 36730 One morning, about ten days after, Mr E---- called and asked me:''Do you believe that at the moment of death you may appear to one whom you love?'' |
36730 | The Duchess said:''What Earl?'' 36730 A negative reply was given and then aWhy do you ask?" |
36730 | After I had finished seeing him we went into the drawing- room where the Duchess was, and the Duke said to me:''Oh, Cooper, how is the Earl?'' |
36730 | After we had waited a little while in vain, Mr Smith said to him:"Do you see something like a straw hat?" |
36730 | And if this is true of man in his present state, how much more does it apply to man in another and more advanced state? |
36730 | And supposing they, and such as they, continue incredulous-- is not incredulity a fixed quantity in any society? |
36730 | Are not his laws wonderful?''" |
36730 | But is this faculty restricted in its operation to a hypnotised subject? |
36730 | But she told us in her sleep that she had been very ill in the night, and repeatedly exclaimed:''Pourquoi M. Gibert m''a- t- il fait souffrir? |
36730 | But what other have we? |
36730 | By what means does it obtain its special knowledge? |
36730 | CHAPTER VII ON"HAUNTINGS"AND KINDRED PHENOMENA"Do I believe in ghosts?" |
36730 | DO THE DEAD DEPART? |
36730 | Do you see papa?'' |
36730 | Feeling a strange sense of fear I called out:''Who are these people coming?'' |
36730 | Has it been propounded? |
36730 | He said:''Will you promise to quit?'' |
36730 | He then said:''Why do n''t you quit it?'' |
36730 | He was planning a congratulatory letter to a friend, when the words"What, write to a dead man? |
36730 | I answered, looking and seeing nothing,''Who are you?'' |
36730 | I pointed to him and called out:''Who is that, please?'' |
36730 | Is it a spirit showing itself partially dissociated from the living organism; evincing independence, a certain intelligence and a certain permanence? |
36730 | Is it two children on a raft at sea?" |
36730 | Is not hypnotism a miracle? |
36730 | Is not telepathy a miracle? |
36730 | Is not the divining rod a miracle? |
36730 | May there not be an unknown, or at least an unrecognised, extension of human muscular faculty? |
36730 | Mr Smith asked:"What are they doing? |
36730 | My niece, who did not see the figure, in the course of a minute or two exclaimed:''Uncle A., what is the matter with you? |
36730 | Now, how do you account for it?" |
36730 | On one occasion when the key was not given up the doctor called out:"Wo n''t you send us down the key before we go?" |
36730 | Or is there yet an alternative explanation? |
36730 | Or is this a mere image of the agent, conceived in his own brain and projected telepathically to the brain of the percipient? |
36730 | Or, on the other hand, may not such faculty be regarded not as vestigial, but as rudimentary? |
36730 | Such candour disarms us: can there be any ground for the theory that here was a case of self- deception on a large scale? |
36730 | Suppose Faraday and Huxley, Spencer and Tyndall, were alive to- day, would they see reason to alter their opinions? |
36730 | The question arises, Does it explain all so- called Spiritualistic phenomena? |
36730 | To hypnotism must the miracle of telepathy now be added? |
36730 | What can that be up in the air? |
36730 | What did she die of?'' |
36730 | What is the net result of the evidence for all classes of supernormal phenomena? |
36730 | What new evidence exists which would make the mid- Victorian scientific men reconsider their position? |
36730 | What then is the explanation? |
36730 | What then is the secret of the dowser''s often remarkable success? |
36730 | What, then, is that operating intelligence? |
36730 | Where are my own experiences? |
36730 | Where the relation of my own personal contact with hypnotists, telepathists, mediums, mysteries? |
36730 | Why may not the impulse pass between men and the lower animals, or between the lower animals themselves? |
36730 | Would Sir William Ramsay or Sir James Crichton- Browne throw these manifestations into the limbo of humbug and charlatanism? |
36730 | Would not that have been of interest? |
36730 | Yet, is it not possible that we have laid hands upon a credible explanation of the eternal mystery of"ghosts"? |
36730 | write to a dead man?" |
36908 | '', I can only answer by asking,''Where is this"public opinion"and what does it look like?'' |
36908 | ''And, David,( is not that your Christian name?) |
36908 | ''Well, of course, if you deceive the spirits like that how can you expect the truth in return?'' |
36908 | ''What dug- out, sir?'' |
36908 | ( Feda(_ sotto voce_): Did he hop, Raymond?) |
36908 | ( N. M. L. asks):''Play what?'' |
36908 | ( No bite)--Georgina? |
36908 | A delightful example of Sir Oliver''s anxiety to help the medium occurs on page 256:-- O. J. L.:''Do you remember a bird in our garden?'' |
36908 | And any voice? |
36908 | At a London séance on December 20th, 1915, with the same medium there occurs the following:--( Question):''What used he to sing?'' |
36908 | At this she asked,''Which one?'' |
36908 | At this stage he was told,''You felt like that in France, what was it?'' |
36908 | But when I showed this spirit photograph to a friend, with a query as to sex, she answered,''But it_ is_ a woman, is n''t it? |
36908 | Can we voluntarily forget? |
36908 | Did you even know you were shifting it? |
36908 | Did you think,''My leg is beginning to feel tired, I''ll shift it?'' |
36908 | Do you see Papa?" |
36908 | Friends had told me of his gifts and had met my incredulity with''How do you explain this?'' |
36908 | He is which had reached England? |
36908 | Here are the important ones:-- O. J. L.:''Do you recollect the photograph at all?'' |
36908 | How did the word come to be selected? |
36908 | How did this joint error of observation arise? |
36908 | I can not answer either except by putting a new one, which is,''Do we ever forget?'' |
36908 | I mean was he standing up?'' |
36908 | I wonder how Mr. Carrington explains the failure of previous observers to detect the trickery? |
36908 | If by that is meant,''Can we voluntarily lose the power of voluntary recall?'' |
36908 | If one asks,''Where is this unconscious and what does it look like? |
36908 | If we specify the factors concerned in memory and say that it depends upon impression, retention, and recall, then what do we mean by''forgetting''? |
36908 | In the early stage of the disease some one examines the arm, pricks it, and asks,''Do you feel that?'' |
36908 | In the one place the old countryman said,"How can he get water there? |
36908 | Instead of this the procedure was:''I hear a name, is it George? |
36908 | Later on his chief asks him,''How did you spot this case?'' |
36908 | Next a yacht appears out of the spirit world, and O. J. L. asks:''What about the yacht with sails, did it run on the water?'' |
36908 | Not yet? |
36908 | O. J. L.''Did it go along?'' |
36908 | O. J. L.:''Did he have a stick?'' |
36908 | O. J. L.:''Does he remember how he looked in the photograph?'' |
36908 | O. J. L.:''Was it out of doors?'' |
36908 | She was a stranger to the photographer, so how could he produce the likeness even if he substituted his own plates? |
36908 | Surely an out- of- door family like this includes at least one fisherman; why not think out who he is and score another bull''s- eye to the medium? |
36908 | The first question was,''Who is Brown?'' |
36908 | The question is taken by the patient to mean that the doctor expects that the prick will not be felt-- or why should he ask? |
36908 | The second question may be compared with''Did you feel that?'' |
36908 | Then begins his conflict; like the patient who successfully feigns symptoms, he finds withdrawal difficult:--''You''d prove firmer in his place? |
36908 | Then, the medium having discovered that O. J. L.''s family had a tent by the water, O. J. L. asks:''Is it all one chamber in the tent?'' |
36908 | What are two failures against three and a half years''manifestations that''had grown more and more numerous and bewildering as time went on''? |
36908 | What can be more authoritative and confident than the manner of a man who believes what he says and knows that his hearers are willing to believe? |
36908 | What could be more convincing? |
36908 | What does it effect? |
36908 | What has been happening all this time in the mind of the patient? |
36908 | When Sir Oliver asks concerning a yacht,''Did it run on the water?'' |
36908 | Whence does he obtain his evidence that the medium had heard nothing of the incident? |
36908 | While a light whisked"..."Shaped somewhat like a star? |
36908 | Who can say that, in the days when Home- Rulers and anti- Home- Rulers abounded, the average voter was swayed by a reasoned knowledge of the subject? |
36908 | You mean yes, do n''t you?'' |
36908 | [ Illustration] How can we explain this belief on the one hand and the trickery on the other? |
61807 | Are there any spirits present? |
61807 | When will it? |
61807 | Will the spirit please to explain why it will not rap upon the table? |
61807 | Will the spirit please to rap now? |
61807 | Will the spirit please to rap now? |
61807 | Will the spirit please to rap? |
61807 | Will the spirit rap here? |
61807 | Will the spirit_ please_ to rap upon the table? |
61807 | Will the spirits please to tip the table? |
61807 | A new fluid, forsooth? |
61807 | Are these the fruits of legitimate and holy deeds? |
61807 | Are these your consolations while at your spiritual shrines? |
61807 | Are you not ministering encouragement to her hagship, and pursuing her very vocation, though under another name? |
61807 | Are you, Christian man or woman, one whit better for these doings than that woman with the familiar spirits, the Witch of Endor? |
61807 | DO SPIRITS WEAR PETTICOATS_ and long dresses_? |
61807 | Do you think that rappings and table- tippings give respectability to witchcraft? |
61807 | Does any one suppose that Arago ever entertained for a moment the idea of electrical action in this connection? |
61807 | Has a spirit_ bones, muscles, fingers, heels, toes, and sticks_? |
61807 | Has a"spirit flesh and blood?" |
61807 | His testimony was confirmed by several others, all witnesses of the highest respectability, and what was it all worth? |
61807 | If these pests of society are beyond the reach of earthly tribunals, will you countenance and encourage their career? |
61807 | Is it this? |
61807 | Is not this the inference, the inevitable conclusion? |
61807 | Mr. F.,& c.""We think it hard to impugn such testimony, and why should not their word in this matter go as far as yours?" |
61807 | Mr.*** propounded as follows: Will the spirit inform us of the spirit the gentleman is thinking of? |
61807 | One of my scientific friends then asked if they would not rap if they were suspended in a swing, or stood upon a pillow? |
61807 | Or were they far away on some errand of duty, or busy and monopolized for some_ special tippings_ elsewhere? |
61807 | Ought we not to infer that the paper and the ruler were pushed by the hand, since the hands followed them in their motion? |
61807 | Perhaps her mother saw this, for she rose from her seat and said,"You are not tricking, now?" |
61807 | Pointing to a name with a pencil, he asked, Is it this? |
61807 | Shall eternity be made subordinate to time; the immortal to the mortal? |
61807 | Shall it be said then that the Almighty is capable of trifling? |
61807 | Shall we be met here with the assertion that there are religious maniacs, that religious excitement makes madmen, and leads to deeds of violence? |
61807 | Spirits, do you say? |
61807 | Spirits, rapping upon doors, floors, and tables, upsetting tables and swinging them about the room? |
61807 | The rappers were then sitting some distance from the table, and we asked if the"Spirits would rap upon the table?" |
61807 | Were the spirits present, and not disposed to gratify a certain class of_ dilettanti_ who were present? |
61807 | Were they jesting and teazing, or in bad humor with our persons, our fixtures, or our espionage? |
61807 | What could have been the cause of this abortive conjuration? |
61807 | Will it inform us correctly? |
61807 | Without claiming any depth in biblical lore, we ask them where is the authority for any such conclusion in the Bible? |
61807 | [ 1] Are you not rather her disciple? |
61807 | _ A new power?_ It is a lawful subject of pursuit, to the very exhaustion of mental resources. |
61807 | _ A new power?_ It would frustrate his schemes in their very inception. |
61807 | a nervous force that acts exterior to, and independent of, its own tenement and rightful fulcrum? |
61807 | and is she not held up to you for an example and a warning? |
61807 | and what is all other testimony worth upon this_ aerial vaulting_ of tables? |
61807 | or that it should be the great reservoir of electricity, magnetism,"_ new fluid_,""_ od_,"or what not? |
61807 | that propels masses heavier than the_ body corporate_, without rending the latter in twain? |
36512 | _ Mrs. Veal had been, subject to fits, and she asks if Mrs. Bargrave does not think she ismightily impaired by her fits?" |
36512 | And I would also take the liberty to suggest that he should ask the ghost these questions:--"Who''s your tailor?" |
36512 | And also, if a_ goose_ would be frightened if it saw a ghost? |
36512 | And further-- If the Government were applied to, would they"lend the loan"of a proper and fitting building to exhibit the various works in? |
36512 | And out of whose"atmosphere,"or"life sphere"had the spirit made this hand? |
36512 | And then if the ghost of a chimney- sweep were to appear-- and why not the spirit of a sweep as well as anybody else? |
36512 | And then was this spirit_ dressed_ in his best? |
36512 | Are, or can these things be_ spiritual_? |
36512 | Can the believers in ghosts tell us that? |
36512 | Can this be a law or regulation amongst the ghosts? |
36512 | For instance, when Marcellus says to Horatio,"Is it not like the king?" |
36512 | Had they to return to purgatory by themselves-- had the heavy white walking- stick to walk off without its owner? |
36512 | If not, where did they go to? |
36512 | If the cloth is made out of stuff"_ permeated by our wills_"-- And further, if these ghosts are honest, and pay their tailors''bills? |
36512 | Mr. Owen here asks if the mastiff was cataleptic also? |
36512 | Now it will be as well here to inquire what good has ever resulted from this belief in what is commonly understood to be a ghost? |
36512 | Now one naturally asks here, why did not this old ghost go and point the place out to his son himself? |
36512 | One day at dinner he stood up, and said to those present,"Do n''t you see I''m going?" |
36512 | Query, If a horse is not frightened at a ghost, why should dogs be frightened at the sight of them? |
36512 | Query, What did the ghost come for, and was the second husband at all jealous of his coming? |
36512 | Query: How did Mr. H. know that this hand_ was so cold_? |
36512 | Suppose it was a_ spirit hand_, the hand of a soul that once did live on earth, could it be the_ spirit_ of a_ glove_? |
36512 | Then comes my_ clothes test_ again, where did the_ hand_ get the_ glove_? |
36512 | There now, there''s a secret for you-- what do you think of that? |
36512 | Well, some people will say that some little_ comfort_ was needed after so much_ dis_comfort and suffering-- but_ why_, all this suffering? |
36512 | Yes, why should a_ dog_, especially if he is a_ spirited_ dog, do so? |
36512 | [ 6] I should like to ask a question here-- Is Home by spirits lifted, or by"atmosphere?" |
36512 | and had it put the glove on because it felt itself so cold? |
36512 | and how is it that the same spirit can appear in_ several places_ at_ the same instant_? |
36512 | and if CLOTHED, of what those CLOTHES WERE MADE? |
36512 | and what A PAIR OF TOP- BOOTS are made of? |
36512 | and whether these materials are_ spiritualized_ by any process, or whether THE CLOTHES WE WEAR ON OUR BODIES BECOME A PART AND PARCEL OF OUR SOULS? |
36512 | and"Who''s your hatter?" |
36512 | and, further, whether the mutilation of the_ body_ can in any way affect the_ spirit_--the_ soul_? |
36512 | in turning their lights in the direction from which the sounds came, and advancing carefully, they discovered-- what do you think? |
36512 | oh dear!-- Are made in any kind of mould, Or how they trick''em out of our"life sphere?" |
36009 | In this connection did you ever think why it is that the devil is continually seeking the moral overthrow and eternal ruin of the human family? 36009 It is often asked in your intercourse with the world of spirits: What are the employments of spirits? |
36009 | What is the true theory of good and evil? 36009 ''Does the description fit her?'' 36009 ''Indianapolis?'' 36009 ''Is it Jeffersonville?'' 36009 ''New Albany?'' 36009 ''What was the cause of his death?'' 36009 ''Where does your mother live?'' 36009 ''Why, did you know Mary when she was living?'' 36009 Among them these: Do the people on Mars sleep? 36009 An early writer said:''If you can not love him whom you have seen, how can you love them whom you have not seen and be beloved in return?'' 36009 And do morals count for naught in the scale of being? 36009 And now others are earnestly talked of and advocated; and does this not teach you the plain lesson that your system is still imperfect? 36009 And the fathers and mothers who educated us, that directed and comforted us, where are they but just beyond the line of the invisible? 36009 And why? 36009 By whom settled, how and when? 36009 Can he gather and control the winds and the seasons as they come and go with all their powerful influences on the globe? 36009 Can it be rationally maintained that truth and justice require a discrimination to be made adverse to the female? 36009 Do you not know that the ox and the horse, for precisely the same reason, can largely discount you? 36009 Do you not perceive the sublimity of this condition? 36009 Does God do any thing without an allwise and beneficent purpose? 36009 Does it belong to and is it a reflex of your boasted Christian civilization? 36009 Does not this plain statement present a dangerous contingency and indicate a palpable weakness? 36009 Does this terrible history, so replete with evil, offer us evidences of Godlike excellence? 36009 From whence do you get this doctrine? 36009 If not, are these of no moment compared with mere physical brute force? 36009 If redface mighty and paleface weak, how then you like it? 36009 If so, how often and how much? 36009 If so, there must be ample reasons for it, and what are they? 36009 If so, when did this divinely appointed consummation take place? 36009 In what pertains to the finer sensibilities and spiritual pureties is woman inferior? 36009 Is hope gone? 36009 Is it not grand to be able to understand, and even more, to appreciate, this knowledge? 36009 Is it possible for Him to do a silly, foolish thing? 36009 Is it true that no adequate protection can be afforded except by judicial murder? 36009 Is man superior to woman morally? 36009 Is the claim true? 36009 Is there any thing to alarm us in this thought? 36009 Is this true? 36009 It is pertinent to inquire, What are the employments of the people of Mars still embodied? 36009 July 27, 1882:Why seriously discuss questions that are fast fading out of sight? |
36009 | My husband inquired,''Where is the fire at?'' |
36009 | Oh, why does man mourn over a law that was ordained for the benefit of all mankind? |
36009 | The Mosaic law demanded an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, but is this the doctrine of Jesus, the assumed founder of Christianity? |
36009 | The question necessarily arises, why is this so? |
36009 | The questions were then asked:''Is it Louisville?'' |
36009 | They have passed from us, but where are they? |
36009 | Was it made before or after man was made? |
36009 | Was it made for man or man for it? |
36009 | What are the duties of the citizen to the government, or what the government has the right to exact of and from the citizen? |
36009 | What are the duties of the government to the people, or what the people have the right to exact of and from their government? |
36009 | What can finite man do to control the Infinite? |
36009 | What does this mean?'' |
36009 | What generation can gather it and hold it in their embrace? |
36009 | What grand purpose, good and wise, can be accomplished by ending the existence of a planet that has as yet scarcely begun to live? |
36009 | What is the argument in its favor? |
36009 | When in the act of taking his departure, he suddenly turned around, and plaintively inquired:''Has Jim got any thing against me? |
36009 | Whence did they come? |
36009 | Where is it situate; who go there and why do they go there, and for what purpose? |
36009 | Whither had it gone? |
36009 | Why can not your statesmen be as patriotic and as true to the public? |
36009 | Why destroy this fair earth, daily and hourly becoming still fairer? |
36009 | Why is it that you require repose in sleep? |
36009 | Why tears fall when he stands where the form of some loved one is laid? |
36009 | Will it be maintained that the Lord would create any thing without a use and wise purpose? |
36009 | Yes, man still asks, with prayerful heart, what are his wants to be in the future? |
36009 | You need not grieve for earthly friendship; those ties have soon to be broken, but have your thoughts on spirit life and friends? |
36009 | _ First._ What is needed to be done? |
36009 | _ Second._ How shall it be done? |
36009 | and if so, pray tell wherein? |
36009 | and whence were their germinating and generating powers obtained? |
36009 | and why does he die? |
36009 | and why was he born? |
36009 | what are they about? |
36009 | what do they do? |
33506 | And about the manifestations at Hydesville in 1848 and the finding of bones in the cellar and so on? |
33506 | It is all a trick? |
33506 | Mrs. Jencken, are you willing to join with your sister in exposing the true modus operandi of Spiritualism? |
33506 | Then you will not deny that what she has said of Spiritualism is true? |
33506 | What can I add to the revelations of those letters? 33506 Why do n''t you come squarely out, then, with the truth, and make the public your friends? |
33506 | Will you greatly oblige me with an answer? 33506 You want to know what are the points of my coming exposà ©? |
33506 | ''Is the person living that injured you?'' |
33506 | *** Oh, Maggie, are you never tired of_ this weary, weary sameness of continual deceit_? |
33506 | And if it could not, does not this pretended"evidence"fall at once to the ground? |
33506 | Are the sounds produced in your room when you have no shoes on? |
33506 | Are there seven members of the Committee present? |
33506 | Are they all seated around one table? |
33506 | Are they seated at two tables? |
33506 | Are those the shoes which you usually wear? |
33506 | Are we likely to have any demonstration?'' |
33506 | Are you able to communicate with him now? |
33506 | Are you ever conscious of any vibration in your bones? |
33506 | As if the''Spirits''might or might not communicate? |
33506 | But can he not do it by trickery? |
33506 | But do you feel now, to- night, any untoward influence operating against you? |
33506 | By-- what? |
33506 | Could anything be more blasphemous, more disgusting, more thinly deceptive than that? |
33506 | Could one man''s hand cover them all? |
33506 | Do these raps always have that vibratory sound-- tr- rut-- tr- rut-- tr- rut? |
33506 | Do you know a man named Kellar, who is exhibiting in this city? |
33506 | Do you know that there is something behind the shadowy mask of Spiritualism that the public can hardly guess at? |
33506 | Do you not think so? |
33506 | Do you suppose that the present conditions are such that you can throw the raps to a part of the room other than that in which you are? |
33506 | He says further:"The inquiry was then addressed to Mr. Slade: Do you know a man named Guernilla, who, with his wife, gave sà © ances? |
33506 | How did Mr. Kellar do that? |
33506 | How does your hand feel when affected in that way? |
33506 | How in the world shall we test that? |
33506 | How many feet, pray you? |
33506 | I asked:''Is it a spirit? |
33506 | I asked:''Were you injured in this house?'' |
33506 | I have told my sister Leah over and again:''Now that you are rich, why do n''t you save your soul?'' |
33506 | I presume then, that it is Henry Seybert? |
33506 | I said,''Flat Foot, can you dance the Highland fling?'' |
33506 | I then asked:''Is this a human being that answers my questions so correctly?'' |
33506 | Is Mr. Seybert present? |
33506 | Is Mr. Seybert still present? |
33506 | Is any spirit present now? |
33506 | Is any spirit present whom I know, or who knows me? |
33506 | Is it Henry Seybert? |
33506 | Is the spirit the same that was present last night? |
33506 | Isolating you from the table? |
33506 | It was but natural:"Since you now despise Spiritualism, how was it that you were engaged in it so long?" |
33506 | Margaret Fox, the mother, used to say to her husband:"Now, John, do n''t you see that it''s a wonderful thing?" |
33506 | Not now? |
33506 | Now Mr. Seybert, can not you produce some raps? |
33506 | Now, Mr. Seybert, if your''spirit''is here, will you have the kindness-- I knew Mr. Seybert well in life-- to rap? |
33506 | Now, Spirits, will you rap on the floor? |
33506 | She says she will lecture, does she? |
33506 | She used to say when we were sitting in a dark circle at home:''Is this a disembodied spirit that has taken possession of my dear children?'' |
33506 | Spirits, is he not easily fooled?" |
33506 | The freer the raps come, the better for you? |
33506 | The glasses are not placed over the marble, are they? |
33506 | The"spirits"answered:"What do you think we require you to sit close to the table for?" |
33506 | Then it was not the regular triple rap? |
33506 | This shocked mother and she said:''O, Leah, how can you encourage that fiend by singing for him to dance?'' |
33506 | Thus the doctor wrote to Maggie in New York:"Is the old house dreary to you? |
33506 | Under what conditions can you influence them? |
33506 | Was there an answer to that? |
33506 | Well, how does he perform his wonderful exploits in''rappings,''etc.? |
33506 | Wells?" |
33506 | Were any of you gentlemen acquainted with Mr. Seybert in his lifetime? |
33506 | What are the rules? |
33506 | What are they to my wishes? |
33506 | What can they indicate in a spiritual way, except that the soul of man is descending to a lower point that it has ever reached while incarnate? |
33506 | What did we know? |
33506 | What will become of you? |
33506 | What would you do? |
33506 | Who am I? |
33506 | Who can doubt this who knows human nature? |
33506 | Will the Spirit rap here? |
33506 | Will the''Spirit''rap again? |
33506 | Will you communicate with him before Mr. Pepper leaves to- night? |
33506 | Will you give me a piece of paper? |
33506 | Will you rap on the floor? |
33506 | Will you repeat the raps we heard just now, assuming that there were some? |
33506 | Will you repeat your taps to indicate that you are present yet? |
33506 | You asked that question, I think? |
33506 | You say that in the generality of cases they are beyond your control? |
43346 | ''How?'' 43346 But how,"said I,"when morning comes, shall I know that your appearance to me has been real, and not the mere representation of my own imagination?" |
43346 | For Heaven''s sake,I exclaimed,"Lord Tyrone, by what means or for what reason came you hither at this time of night?" |
43346 | Have you then forgotten our promise? |
43346 | I may, then, infer that you are happy? |
43346 | May I not ask,said I,"if you are happy?" |
43346 | This gentleman then adjured the spirit in a variety of forms, and asked if it was not a bad spirit? 43346 What is the matter?" |
43346 | Will not the news of my death be sufficient to convince you? |
43346 | ''Do you believe,''said I,''that Christ died to save us from sin?'' |
43346 | ''Do you expect letters?'' |
43346 | ''In God''s Name, what do you want, or what can I do for you?'' |
43346 | ''In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,''said I,''are you the spirit of my child?'' |
43346 | ''In what shape shall it be?'' |
43346 | ''Well,''said a clergyman, one of the three,''I wonder, after all, if there is any future state or not?'' |
43346 | --"What of the Dead? |
43346 | 33?'' |
43346 | 35.--''While your body was lying in the coffin, was anything put in the hand? |
43346 | 36.--''What was it?'' |
43346 | 37.--''By whom was it put there?'' |
43346 | 38.--''Who else were present at the time?'' |
43346 | :--''Where was your body buried?'' |
43346 | :--''Will you spell the name of the place where we lived when you left this state?'' |
43346 | And tell me, most potent seigniors, what is the origin of these forces? |
43346 | And with whom resides the impulse of their action and the guidance of their control? |
43346 | Are you a bad spirit? |
43346 | Are you happy? |
43346 | But still, a thoughtful mind will venture to demand whence did these atoms derive their existence? |
43346 | By fire? |
43346 | Can we do you any good? |
43346 | Days? |
43346 | Did they make them feel them? |
43346 | Did they see them? |
43346 | Did you know any at this table? |
43346 | Did you live in this neighbourhood? |
43346 | Do you mean five days? |
43346 | Dr. Edmunds:"How were the names spelled out?" |
43346 | Has the spirit of my child_ ever_ been put in communication with myself or her mother through this or any other table?'' |
43346 | Have you been dead years? |
43346 | He inquired further, whether there was any of their old acquaintance in that place where he was? |
43346 | He then asked her if she had hurt her wrist:''Have you sprained it?'' |
43346 | How could any one be afraid of me? |
43346 | How did they know they were there? |
43346 | How long have you been dead? |
43346 | How many? |
43346 | I asked,''Are you my child?'' |
43346 | I exclaimed,"and can not I prevent this?" |
43346 | I had offered a glass of wine and water to my wife, when, on putting it to her lips, she paused and exclaimed,''Good God, what is that?'' |
43346 | I then said,''Are you from God?'' |
43346 | I then said,''In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, I command you to answer-- are you from God?'' |
43346 | In how many years? |
43346 | In the reign of her successor? |
43346 | Is he alive or dead? |
43346 | Is it displeasing to God? |
43346 | Is it the woman''s spirit, or the man''s, who haunts the house? |

21041 | ''A witness of what?'' 21041 ''All that you have told me is very sad and strange,''I said,''but now, will you allow me to ask you why you have appeared to me? |
21041 | ''And that of the lady opposite, my cousin, Lucretia Carbury?'' 21041 ''Have you anything more to ask?'' |
21041 | ''Who was the man?'' 21041 ''Why do you come to me?'' |
21041 | And curly and long? |
21041 | And what can I do about any young man? |
21041 | As soon as I was sure of this, I said:''You are Captain Richard Carbury?'' 21041 But ca n''t you account for it at all?" |
21041 | But what can_ I_ do in the matter, even if it be as you say? |
21041 | But what happened_ afterwards_--after I left Warwickshire, I mean? |
21041 | But you will join us on Wednesday at the meeting, I trust? 21041 Could you describe the man at all?" |
21041 | Did Frank never write? |
21041 | Did you want to know about anyone who lived here long ago? |
21041 | Did your brother Frank ever tell you of a letter he received from me in Oxford? |
21041 | Do n''t you remember my asking you if you had noticed anything curious, or heard or seen anything, during your visit? 21041 Do n''t you see that girl over there?" |
21041 | Do you know any William? 21041 Finish the text? |
21041 | Has anyone died here lately? |
21041 | How do you do, Jem? |
21041 | How long ago? |
21041 | I replied that I should gladly hear what he had to tell, but would he allow me to ask him one question? 21041 In what city?" |
21041 | Is any writing really coming? |
21041 | Is it that you are not happy? |
21041 | Is she mad? |
21041 | Miss Bates, I see? 21041 Oh yes; was n''t he just exasperating?" |
21041 | Really, dear? 21041 Shall I be able to hear? |
21041 | Shall I be able to write automatically? |
21041 | Still, I could put it with the others, and let it go to Warwick, and then tell the man not to do anything with it-- but what would Edward say? 21041 Then you have not had bad news?" |
21041 | What young man? |
21041 | Which room he slept in? 21041 Who could foretell when he might have another chance?" |
21041 | Why not say''_ I_''and have done with it? |
21041 | Will she give a name? |
21041 | Will that lady kindly sit down? 21041 Yes, of course, we know all that, you and I, but what is the use of making this fuss about it? |
21041 | _ Bien, Madame, qu''est- ce- que je vous ai dit?_demanded the Abbà ©, turning to me in triumph. |
21041 | _ Boston._"Was it in a private house, a hospital, a hotel, or_ where_ did you die? |
21041 | _ What business is it of yours?_was the constant reply to my questions. |
21041 | ''Can I be of use to you? |
21041 | ''Can not you speak?'' |
21041 | ''Is anything the matter?'' |
21041 | ''You are not frightened of me?'' |
21041 | -- Trumpington Street?" |
21041 | After wishing very fervently one night, Sister Margaret appeared dressed in mob cap and gown, saying:"Do n''t you see my dress? |
21041 | Again I ask: How about the"_ Cui Bono_"argument? |
21041 | Again I ask: How about the"_ Cui Bono_"argument? |
21041 | Are you at the same point of view? |
21041 | Are you not thinking of Mr Loseby?" |
21041 | Are you quite sure you mean Henry Halifax? |
21041 | Are you willing?'' |
21041 | As I remained silent she whispered:"Do n''t you know me?" |
21041 | At last, about three months ago, he turned round suddenly, and said:"''When are you going to send those pictures to be cleaned?'' |
21041 | B.--"Who do you mean by''_ them_''?" |
21041 | B.--Is there any help here for my constant problem: Why should one''s individual life be only_ now_ evolving in Eternity? |
21041 | B.--Why is Imperator so slow in throwing off his own spiritual limitations? |
21041 | But nothing more could be got out of him, so I dismissed him impatiently, saying:"What is the good of telling me such nonsense? |
21041 | But then again, how could I_ see_ her, since the room was quite dark? |
21041 | But what of it? |
21041 | Can you_ imagine_ his allowing the picture to be taken down upon this evidence?" |
21041 | Charlie Bates? |
21041 | Could Mr Kitchener or any other person present have had to do with the matter? |
21041 | Could it have creaked itself farther open? |
21041 | Could she find out what was the cause? |
21041 | Did this moment of intense desire for her, project itself into the appearance she saw in her room? |
21041 | Disappointed by this, I asked;"Can you not speak to us?" |
21041 | Do n''t you understand what I am saying? |
21041 | Do you see Truth in this idea, and can you tell me if it extends also to Space? |
21041 | Do you see what I mean? |
21041 | Do you suppose the master would have done such a thing?" |
21041 | H. D.--You want me to tell you just my position about the Imperator group before and since I passed to this side? |
21041 | Have you had any curious experiences since I saw you last?" |
21041 | He says:"Why do people in the earth life quote our words as if we were Delphic Oracles?" |
21041 | He thought for a moment, then said:''Chomley? |
21041 | His next remark was:"_ What does it matter what_ YOU_ think or what you mean to do or not to do? |
21041 | His reply was as follows:-- Time is really a form of perception,_ not a thing in itself_--do you understand? |
21041 | How could the hinges have creaked then, and whose cautious footsteps had I heard? |
21041 | How could we gain the real education of life were it otherwise? |
21041 | I can not talk, but I can listen; or do you think possibly you could get a little writing for me? |
21041 | I have been frequently asked:"Should you have recognised her as your friend had no name been given?" |
21041 | I whispered to my friend:"Shall I ask him?" |
21041 | If they do come they wo n''t stay-- why should they? |
21041 | In addition to this, the Hindoostanees consider( and who shall say without ample cause?) |
21041 | Is it not apparent, therefore, that there has been wisdom and goodness in our very theological mistakes and illusions? |
21041 | Is it strange that the same rule should apply to the universe that applies to the tiny portion of it that we know? |
21041 | Is it then permitted to mortals to have personal intercourse with spirits?'' |
21041 | Is that correct?" |
21041 | Is there any restitution to be made, or justice to be administered? |
21041 | Is there anything you want done on earth that I can do? |
21041 | Life is just the same on the outer; but on the_ inner?_ Well, I can not describe it!" |
21041 | Miss Boyle told me you wrote automatically sometimes?" |
21041 | My last question was:"What was your age when you passed over?" |
21041 | My next question naturally was:"Then shall I be able to_ see_ very soon?" |
21041 | On arrival there Miss Rowan Vincent said to me very kindly:"Can I do anything for_ you_ now, Miss Bates? |
21041 | Shall I become clair- audient?" |
21041 | Shall I try if I can see anything for you?" |
21041 | Shall you be afraid?'' |
21041 | She is still alive, however, and is to be taken to the hospital at one P.M.""But what has happened, Küntze?" |
21041 | She looked incredulous, and then said cheerfully:"Well, if it is as bad as that, do n''t you think you ought to go and see how she is?" |
21041 | Someone_ did_ come to my bedside last night, and said:''I am Gifford-- will you listen to me?'' |
21041 | Something induced me, quite against my will, to say:"Do you ever get messages by writing, Miss Vincent?" |
21041 | Suddenly she looked up, and said:"_ Ã � propos des bottes._""How about that young man, ma''am? |
21041 | Surely we are one large family, whether here or there? |
21041 | Surely you must feel how much you have gained since you faced your own facts? |
21041 | The father guessed the letter from the child''s description, and asked me if the first one were correct? |
21041 | The impression was so vivid that I called out instinctively:"What is it, Mabel? |
21041 | The matter did not specially interest me; but on arrival at Rangoon, the only decent(?) |
21041 | The old lady(?) |
21041 | Then I asked:"In what country did you pass away-- Europe or America, or elsewhere?" |
21041 | Then swiftly came the second idea:"And how in the world does it happen that I do n''t feel a bit frightened?" |
21041 | Then turning round carelessly, she remarked:"I suppose_ you_ have not seen or heard anything, Miss Bates, since you came? |
21041 | Thinking I would verify Miss Whiting''s story if possible, my first question was:"Can Stead''s Julia give me her surname?" |
21041 | This message gave me a hard problem to solve:"What should I do with it?" |
21041 | Was it a seducing spirit or a friendly intelligence who reminded me that my opponent had only quoted half the text--_the half that suited him_? |
21041 | Was it another case of mental affinity which had induced him unconsciously to choose a gold brooch with two swallows in gold and pearls? |
21041 | What are you going to do about him?" |
21041 | What can I do for you?" |
21041 | What could he be doing or_ waiting for_? |
21041 | What do you mean?" |
21041 | What horrors, to justify such awful shrieks, could be taking place at this quiet hour and in this quiet, respectable hotel? |
21041 | What more can any of us say? |
21041 | What_ should_ I do?" |
21041 | When I suggested that the judgment was at least very flattering to the Burmese, this Burmese gentleman laughed, and said:"Flattering? |
21041 | When people say to me:"How can a sensible woman like yourself be so foolish as to think such things?" |
21041 | When the doctor arrived, his first question was:"Have you had any special shock lately? |
21041 | Where did it go to? |
21041 | Where did_ you_ know him?'' |
21041 | Which of us has not groaned under these self- conscious euphemisms? |
21041 | Who can say? |
21041 | Why did he appear with flesh like a living man? |
21041 | Why not ask the UNSEEN themselves for a decision in the matter? |
21041 | Why, indeed? |
21041 | You have noticed my portrait in the gallery?'' |
21041 | You never saw it again? |
21041 | _ Where was the man?_ The door had not closed again, so far as I could hear. |
21041 | so interested in everything-- a_ clergyman_, my dear Miss Bates, and so_ good!_ How could there be anything painful connected with his death?" |
21041 | you remember my telling you about her the other day, and how her manager had run away with all that money? |
42318 | And what,we inquired,"is this something that you have attained?" |
42318 | Do you know who will be the next U. S. Senator from this State? |
42318 | In the hall of thieves,said the lady;"what on earth can be the meaning of that? |
42318 | Of what must I take care? |
42318 | What were they eating and drinking? |
42318 | When did I hurt thee? |
42318 | Where did she_ formerly_ live? |
42318 | Where? |
42318 | Will you try that over again? |
42318 | ''But how does friction produce heat in this case?'' |
42318 | ''But it flows from the Gulf of Mexico?'' |
42318 | ''But the Gulf Stream flows north; how, then, can the icebergs accumulate at its source?'' |
42318 | ''Is she happy?'' |
42318 | ''Is she in fault, or others?'' |
42318 | ''That,''said I,''is false;''but not having heard from the family for several years, I asked again,''How many_ did_ she have?'' |
42318 | ''Then why do n''t you go on?'' |
42318 | ''What are you going to do with me?'' |
42318 | ''What for?'' |
42318 | ''What is the name of the living one?'' |
42318 | ''What is your occupation?'' |
42318 | ''What makes her unhappy?'' |
42318 | ''When?'' |
42318 | ''Why?'' |
42318 | ''Will he ever pay me anything?'' |
42318 | ''_ Three._''''Where are the other two?'' |
42318 | And again, what of that spicy colloquy in which Planchette writes the words"devil,""devil''s brother,""stir fires,""broil you,"etc.? |
42318 | And how? |
42318 | Are not many of the usages and familiar forms of speech of modern Christendom a return to old heathenism? |
42318 | Are these the fruits of the misunderstood doctrine of total depravity?] |
42318 | Are they not what St. Augustine calls a repudiation of the Christian faith? |
42318 | At last I asked,''How many brothers has she?'' |
42318 | At this point she inquired:"Who is this that is giving this caution?" |
42318 | But Satan can work only through human agents; and who were his instruments for the affliction of these children? |
42318 | But is it a fact, then, that the great enemy whom Christ so constantly spoke of is dead? |
42318 | But what is this doctrine? |
42318 | But why should the devil connect himself with Planchette?... |
42318 | Can you cite me some familiar fact to prove that man is actually surrounded and pervaded by a sphere such as you describe? |
42318 | Curious, is it not? |
42318 | DR. DODDRIDGE''S DREAM[ In concluding these Psychological discussions, what is there more appropriate than the following? |
42318 | Do they believe they are united by intimate bonds with all Christ''s followers? |
42318 | For example, she on one occasion said to it:"Planchette, where did you get your education?" |
42318 | For illustration, suppose a man asserts at noonday that there is no sun, does he teach you there is no sun? |
42318 | Green?'' |
42318 | Has it not looked with a jealous eye upon the progress of science generally? |
42318 | He has been appointed to serve the world, and the world does not regard him; the negroes, and( who could believe it?) |
42318 | He says:"How, then, shall we account for the writing which is performed without any direct volition? |
42318 | How does that consideration stand? |
42318 | How does that sound to you, my ingenious friend? |
42318 | How so? |
42318 | I then said:''Who are you?'' |
42318 | If I am not an intelligence, in the name of common sense what am I? |
42318 | If a table may be made to spin around the room, why may not a wheel be made to turn as well?" |
42318 | If it be called only a dream, or, even a delusion, what harm can come of it? |
42318 | If thou believest the things which thou sayest to be true, why dost thou weep and lament and make a pageantry and a mock of thy singing? |
42318 | If thou believest them_ not_ to be true, why dost thou play the hypocrite so much as to sing?" |
42318 | In Planchette, public journalists and pamphleteers seem to have caught the"What is it?" |
42318 | In justice to my little friend, however, I must not omit to state that in respect to questions as to the kind of weather we shall have on the morrow? |
42318 | Is it anything more than the sheerest assumption? |
42318 | Is it not in keeping with Scripture teachings, as now interpreted? |
42318 | May I not, then, expect from_ you_ a solution of the mysteries which have thus far enveloped you? |
42318 | May it not be spiritual food, of which their mother, the Church, has abundance, which she has neglected to set before them? |
42318 | My friend C. here asked:"Ought she to go to Kentucky and attend to the matter?" |
42318 | My question was,_ Can you tell me anything about my nephew?_''_ Mr. |
42318 | Nevertheless, I am curious to know how you justify yourself in this disparaging remark on the theology and religion of the day? |
42318 | Pray, how do you account for that fact? |
42318 | She said to him:"For a further test, will you be kind enough to tell me where I last saw you?" |
42318 | St. Chrysostom, speaking of funeral services, quotes passages from the psalms and hymns that were in common use, thus:"What mean our psalms and hymns? |
42318 | Such were the answers to the questions:"How many brothers_ did_ she[ Mary C----] have?" |
42318 | Such, for instance, is the answer"Nobody knows,"to the question"Where is Mary C----?" |
42318 | Thinkest thou that I can not now pray to my Father, and he will give me more than twelve legions of angels?" |
42318 | Well, by what description of intelligence? |
42318 | Well, then, what is the way to deal with spiritualism? |
42318 | What is this communion which death can not prevent, and which with prayer can impart consolation? |
42318 | When this theory is offered in seriousness as a final solution of the mystery in question, we are tempted to ask, Who is electricity? |
42318 | Where is the shadow of proof? |
42318 | Why should we not hasten and run after them that we too may see our fatherland? |
42318 | Why? |
42318 | Will you have the kindness to gratify me in this particular? |
42318 | Would not a sermon conceived in the terms of this standard treatise excite an instant sensation as tending toward the errors of Spiritualism? |
42318 | [ 2] Query: Have we here the_ spiritus mundi_ of the old philosophers? |
42318 | _ I._ And what of the changed aspects of science that is to grow out of this alleged peculiar Divine manifestation? |
42318 | _ I._ I see the point, and acknowledge it is ingeniously made; but do you not see that the argument fails to meet the whole difficulty? |
42318 | _ I._ Of course they do; how otherwise? |
42318 | _ I._ On what ground do you assert that the religion of the day stands in a position"negative"to other influences? |
42318 | _ I._ Pray tell us what you mean by the dream- region that lies between the two worlds? |
42318 | _ I._ Well, I should say he would teach the latter; but what use would the knowledge that he is such a fool be to us? |
42318 | _ P._ Can you, then, bear an announcement still more startling than any I have yet made? |
42318 | _ P._ Did not the heathens consult familiar spirits as petty divinities, or gods, and as such, follow their sayings and commands implicitly? |
42318 | _ P._ May you not, then, from all this learn a rule which will always be a safe guide to you in respect to the matters under discussion? |
42318 | and how and where did he get his education? |
42318 | and is this the road our ancestors had to travel in their pilgrimage in quest of freedom and Christianity? |
42318 | and was not that the reason, and the only reason, why the practice was forbidden? |
42318 | and would not the Israelites to whom the Old Testament was addressed have violated the first command in the decalogue by adopting this practice? |
42318 | is my money in jeopardy?" |
42318 | or does he teach you that he is blind? |
42318 | or shall I see, or do this, that, or the other thing? |
42318 | so great an event heralded by so questionable an instrumentality as the rapping and table tipping spirits? |
42318 | that is to say, between mere verbal utterances and phenomenal demonstrations? |
42318 | what is his mental and moral_ status_? |
42318 | will such person go, or such a one come? |
11950 | Behold this ruin,''tis a skull Once of etherial spirit full--"Par quel ordre du Ciel, que je ne puis compendre Vous dis- je plus que je ne dois? |
11950 | Does he know who is now speaking? |
11950 | Is he satisfied with the Commission? |
11950 | Will it answer to the alphabet? |
11950 | ''And do you remember the sweet years of old?'' |
11950 | ''And do you remember, Olive dear, whose names were carved on it?'' |
11950 | ''And do you, oh, do you remember that you fell asleep under the oak, and that a little acorn fell into your bosom and you tossed it out in a pet? |
11950 | ''But Rosamund, Fair Rosamund, what made you drink that bowl? |
11950 | ''But, my dear sir,''I cried,''what_ can_ I ask about? |
11950 | ''Certainly I will, dear Uncle, and wo n''t you bring me a necklace, too?'' |
11950 | ''Did n''t you see what Eleanor had in her other hand?'' |
11950 | ''Do you remember,''I continued,''the old oak near Sumner- place?'' |
11950 | ''How did she find you out?'' |
11950 | ''Oh, Effie dear,''I said,''is that you?'' |
11950 | ''Pray, tell me,''I said,''is that motion of your forefinger voluntary or involuntary?'' |
11950 | ''Stop,''he cried,''is it Maria?'' |
11950 | ''Stop,''he cried,''is there a"Saint"about it?'' |
11950 | ''Well, how does he perform his wonderful exploits in rappings, etc.?'' |
11950 | ( Resuming): I presume then it is Henry Seybert? |
11950 | ( Resuming): Is the Spirit the same one that was present last night? |
11950 | ( Resuming): Will you communicate with him before Mr. Pepper leaves to- night? |
11950 | ( Resuming, from notes): The inquiry was then addressed to Dr. Slade,''Do you know a man named Guernella who, with his wife, gave séances?'' |
11950 | ( To Mr. Furness): Do you not think so? |
11950 | And do you know that it has grown into a fine young oak?'' |
11950 | Answer:''Soon,''''Will you write for the gentlemen?'' |
11950 | Are there more Spirits than one present? |
11950 | Are they visible before you? |
11950 | Are we likely to have any demonstration? |
11950 | Are you able to communicate with him now? |
11950 | Are you happy now? |
11950 | But did it not behoove the Acting Chairman of the Seybert Commission to yield himself a willing victim to the cause of Psychical Research? |
11950 | But had not the envelope been opened? |
11950 | But what other possible way have I of finding out who the Spirits are, when they do not tell me in advance, but by asking them? |
11950 | But why should I anticipate deceit at Spiritual hands? |
11950 | But why should we talk of''loss?'' |
11950 | Can it be that the faculty of observation and comparison is rare, and that our features are really vague and misty to our best friends? |
11950 | Can you indicate on the table your presence, Mr. Seybert? |
11950 | Can you tell me anything about the owner, when alive, of the skull here in the Library? |
11950 | Could this have been a lure to tempt me to knock again at the Spiritual door of which Dr. Mansfield is the porter? |
11950 | Did I ever evince the slightest mistrust of Indian''braves?'' |
11950 | Did I give her a ring? |
11950 | Did I not very much disappoint a young lady over there? |
11950 | Did you really want to come back?'' |
11950 | Do I not go often into a building where many persons work at chemistry? |
11950 | Do you move this pencil? |
11950 | Do you remember it, dear one?'' |
11950 | Do you remember it, dear?'' |
11950 | Do you remember who gave you that bowl just before you died?'' |
11950 | Does it gratify her, as a Spirit, that it is mounted on black marble? |
11950 | Does not a hen sit for three weeks? |
11950 | Does she ever hover over it?'' |
11950 | Dr. Koenig: What would that mean-- that he only sees some of us, or that he sees none of us entirely, but only partially? |
11950 | Dr. Leidy asked the question:"Is any Spirit present?" |
11950 | Dr. Leidy asked:''When and where did you die?'' |
11950 | Dr. Leidy: Is Mr. Seybert present? |
11950 | Dr. Leidy: Is any Spirit present whom I know, or who knows me? |
11950 | Dr. Leidy: Is any Spirit present? |
11950 | Dr. Leidy: Who am I? |
11950 | Dr. Leidy: Will you repeat your taps to indicate that you are present yet? |
11950 | Dr. Leidy:"To the right?" |
11950 | Dr. Leidy:"Will you confer with the man to left of the Medium?" |
11950 | Had you no suspicions?'' |
11950 | Have I been smitten with color- blindness? |
11950 | Have I ever failed in respectful homage to General Washington? |
11950 | Have I never seen the Medium before? |
11950 | Have I not been across the water where people had the cholera and turned black and died? |
11950 | Have you any message to send to your wife, M---- F----? |
11950 | He asked, with somewhat of a sneer,''How did you expect to investigate it?'' |
11950 | I arose as it approached and asked:''Is this Rosamund?'' |
11950 | I sat down and wrote,"Has Marie St. Clair met Sister Belle in the other world?" |
11950 | I sat down at my table and wrote:''Is it really true that Sister Belle''s body was sold to three doctors?'' |
11950 | I thought,''are not the four Cardinal virtues, Temperance, Justice,_ Prudence_ and Fortitude?'' |
11950 | I wrote upon a slip of paper my question,"Will Dr. H. advise me what to do for Juliet( an old colored patient)?" |
11950 | If William Shakespeare can appear to me, why not Fair Rosamund? |
11950 | If it be not the Spirit that I name, will it not, if it has a shred of honesty, set me right? |
11950 | In answer to the question,''Are you ready to lift the gentleman?'' |
11950 | In answer to the question,''Will you try to lift the chair?'' |
11950 | Is it Henry Seybert? |
11950 | Is it that the Medium exercises some mesmeric influence on her visitors, who are thus made to accept the faces which she wills them to see? |
11950 | Is not a Medium worth more than a chicken? |
11950 | Is the gentleman opposite a Medium? |
11950 | Isolating you from the table? |
11950 | It was asked whether Mr. Seybert would meet us on the next evening? |
11950 | It was asked: Will the Spirits answer questions? |
11950 | Le Conte-- are you engaged now in the study of Coleoptera?'' |
11950 | Medium requests that the piano be moved against the door( to keep off illicit Spirits?). |
11950 | Moreover, I thought, are there not to be found in Anatomical Museums skeletons of infants with one body and two heads? |
11950 | Mr. Fullerton( to the Medium): How does your hand feel when affected in that way? |
11950 | Mr. Fullerton: Then it was not the regular triple rap? |
11950 | Mr. Furness( applying his right hand, by her permission, to the Medium''s head): Are you ever conscious of any vibration in your bones? |
11950 | Mr. Furness: Do these raps always have that vibratory sound-- tr- rut-- tr- rut-- tr- rut? |
11950 | Mr. Furness: Do you suppose that the present conditions are such that you can throw the raps to a part of the room other than that in which you are? |
11950 | Mr. Furness: How in the world shall we test that? |
11950 | Mr. Furness: The freer the raps come, the better for you? |
11950 | Mr. Furness: Under what conditions can you influence them? |
11950 | Mr. Furness: You say that, in the generality of cases, they are beyond your control? |
11950 | Mr. Pepper: Harry, would you like to know something about this investigation of Spiritual manifestations, which you had so much at heart while living? |
11950 | My fourth, and last, question therefore ran:''Do you think that by any chance Dina Melish would know?'' |
11950 | My third question immediately followed:"Can you give me any information as to where even a portion of the body is?" |
11950 | Need I say that this document, in Marie''s own handwriting, invests the skull with even added interest? |
11950 | Need it be added that I gratefully remitted to Medium Number Three a double fee, and do yet consider myself many times her debtor? |
11950 | Now, Mr. Seybert, can not you produce some raps? |
11950 | On two occasions, when I suggested that I recognized the form by asking,"Is it----?" |
11950 | Or is it, after all, only the dim light and a fresh illustration of_ la nuit tous les chats sont gris_? |
11950 | Pepper:"Do you remember the year in which you made the promise?" |
11950 | Professor Thompson( interposing): Do you remember the Medium''s remarks about the resistance of the Spirits? |
11950 | Professor Thompson( who was the person indicated):"Is the Spirit male?" |
11950 | Professor Thompson: But did not the Medium make that statement at the very first séance? |
11950 | Sellers asked the Medium,"Dr. Slade, will you allow me to see that slate?" |
11950 | Sellers here described at length Mr. Kellar''s trick with the fastened slates, and in concluding, asked:] How did Mr. Kellar do that? |
11950 | Sellers( addressing the Spirit): Will you repeat the raps we heard just now, assuming that there were some? |
11950 | Sellers( after a notification from the Medium to proceed): Is Mr. Seybert still present? |
11950 | Sellers( to the Medium): As if the Spirits might or might not communicate? |
11950 | Sellers): Was not that slate the one that I held at the time referred to? |
11950 | Sellers): Was there an answer to that? |
11950 | Sellers): You asked that question, I think? |
11950 | Sellers, being requested to write a question on the back of the slate near him, wrote the following,''What is the time?'' |
11950 | Sellers, complying with the Medium''s request to write a question on the back of the slate, wrote"Do you know the persons present?" |
11950 | Sellers: Are there only three? |
11950 | Sellers: Are there seven members of the Committee present? |
11950 | Sellers: Are they all seated around one table? |
11950 | Sellers: Are they seated at two tables? |
11950 | Sellers: Are those the shoes which you usually wear? |
11950 | Sellers: But can he not do it by trickery? |
11950 | Sellers: But do you feel now, to- night, any untoward influence operating against you? |
11950 | Sellers: Do you know a man named Kellar, who is exhibiting in this city? |
11950 | Sellers: Do you, Mr. Seybert, at the present time, see the persons present? |
11950 | Sellers: Is any Spirit present now? |
11950 | Sellers: Then the sounds will be just beneath your feet, will they? |
11950 | Sellers: What are the rules? |
11950 | Sellers: Will the Spirit rap again? |
11950 | Sellers: Will the raps be produced under such circumstances? |
11950 | Sellers: Will you communicate with Mr. Pepper by raps or by writing? |
11950 | Sellers: Will you please rap the number of the members of the Committee who are present at this time? |
11950 | Sellers:"Does Mr. Seybert know the names of the Commission?" |
11950 | Sellers:"Will Henry Seybert make the raps at this end of the table?" |
11950 | Stifling atmosphere breathed for 1- 1/2 hours, for what? |
11950 | Tell me, you little witch, who were you thinking of all that time?'' |
11950 | Tell us if you will play the accordion, or try to to- day? |
11950 | The Medium( repeating): Will you rap on the floor? |
11950 | The Medium( to Dr. Leidy): Ask if that is Mr. Seybert? |
11950 | The Medium( to Mr. Furness): The glasses are not placed over marble, are they? |
11950 | The Medium: Now, Mr. Seybert, if your Spirit is here, will you have the kindness-- I knew Mr. Seybert well in life-- to rap? |
11950 | The Medium: Now, Spirits, will you rap on the floor? |
11950 | The Medium: Well, by-- Mr. Furness: By-- what? |
11950 | The Medium: Were any of you gentlemen acquainted with Mr. Seybert in his lifetime? |
11950 | The Medium: Will the Spirit rap here? |
11950 | To regain my lost position, therefore, I said hastily,''But can it be Effie?'' |
11950 | Upon one slate the following interrogatories and responses were recorded:''Spirits, are you ready to work?'' |
11950 | Was to be, or not to be, a Medium so evenly balanced that the turning of a hair, or of a whole head of hair was to repel me? |
11950 | What hinders it from telling me just who it is? |
11950 | When a Spirit called for her husband, Mrs. Thayer, the interpreter, asked,"Has anyone here a wife on the other side?" |
11950 | When a Spirit comes out of the Cabinet especially to me, how am I to know, or to find out, who it is but by asking? |
11950 | When we resumed our seats, I could not help asking her:''Are you_ sure_ you recognized him?'' |
11950 | Where a hen gives a week, shall not I give a month? |
11950 | Whereupon she instantly retorted, with much indignation,''Do you mean to imply that I do n''t_ know_ my_ husband_?'' |
11950 | Who can truthfully describe a juggler''s trick? |
11950 | Why had no one ever told me of that row of books? |
11950 | Why may not this have been an instance of one head and two bodies? |
11950 | Will you communicate by raps? |
11950 | Would not it be advisable, when you say it was thrown up, to add that it was thrown from the side at which the Medium was sitting? |
11950 | You''ll surely come and see me again the next time I come here, wo n''t you?'' |
11950 | you never believed in them, did you?'' |
12353 | Can you read them, or tell me the name of the author? |
12353 | What is he doing? |
12353 | Where is he? |
12353 | Whom is he writing to? |
12353 | ''About ten minutes past[ to?] |
12353 | ''And what is the evidence for the truth of Coleridge''s legend?'' |
12353 | ''And wherefore should a breach be made in the laws of nature, yet its purpose remain unknown?'' |
12353 | ''Both heard, at the same time, an[ objective?] |
12353 | ''Cagn made all things, and we pray to him,''thus:''O Cagn, O Cagn, are we not thy children? |

12353 | ''IV.--On Thursday, March--? |
12353 | ''In default of any experimental evidence''( how about Mr. William Crookes''s?) |

12353 | --"Of what colour,"I asked,"is the stuff which he pours out?" |
12353 | After Miss Angus had described the large building and crowds of men, some one asked,''Is it an exchange?'' |
12353 | Ah, say what Spirit, or Body, is this Body, That fills the world around, Speak, man, ah say What Spirit, or Body, is this Body?'' |
12353 | And what have we to oppose to such a cloud of witnesses, but the absolute_ impossibility, or miraculous nature_ of the events which they relate? |
12353 | And what is the''mind''? |
12353 | And who was El? |
12353 | And why was that manifested to the eye, which could not unfold its tale to the ear?'' |
12353 | Are the things bound to be''connected in fact''? |
12353 | As Frank and the native were cross- cutting a tree, the native stopped suddenly, and said,"What are you come for?" |
12353 | Asked,''what substance?'' |
12353 | But how did it come to be thought that a spirit dwelt in a lifeless and motionless piece of stone or stick? |
12353 | But how does it apply when, as by the Kurnai, the Supreme Being is reckoned an ancestor? |
12353 | But the word in the latter case would react on the thought, till the Roman inhaled( as his life?) |
12353 | But this is arguing in a circle; What is''a properly receptive state''? |
12353 | But we can both say''the ultimate form of the religious consciousness is''( will be?) |
12353 | But what do we mean by''hysterical''? |
12353 | But wherefore do they crystallise round Zeus? |
12353 | But, had they a God( on the Australian pattern) whom they have forgotten, or have they not yet evolved a God out of Animism? |
12353 | By what other considerations? |
12353 | Can you tell me what book it is?" |
12353 | Do his experience and their belief coincide by pure chance?] |
12353 | Do these produce, or probably produce, many empty hallucinations_ not_ coincident with death or any great crisis? |
12353 | Do you not see us hunger? |
12353 | Does Mr. Payne mean that a great creative spirit is_ not_ a god, while a spirit kept on board wages in a tangible object is a god? |
12353 | Does Mulungu, as Creative God, receive sacrifice, or not? |
12353 | First, what was the process of development? |
12353 | Frank replied,"What do you mean?" |
12353 | Frank said,"Where is he?" |
12353 | Given Animism, then, or the belief in spiritual beings, as the earliest form and minimum of religious faith, what is the origin of Animism? |
12353 | Granting a primal religion relatively pure in its beginnings, why did it degenerate? |
12353 | Granting the belief in souls and ghosts and spirits, however attained, how was the idea of a Supreme Being to be evolved out of that belief? |
12353 | Has fetishism one of its origins in the actual field of supernormal experience in the X region? |
12353 | Have critics and manual- makers no knowledge of the science of comparative religion? |
12353 | He does not ask''Are the phenomena real?'' |
12353 | He is called"Dendid"( great rain, that is, universal benediction?).'' |
12353 | How are these to be explained? |
12353 | How can we know that he was envisaged, originally, as_ Spirit_? |
12353 | How did it work? |
12353 | How do we explain his lack of adoration? |
12353 | How else, thinkers would say, can the seer visit the distant place or person, and correctly describe men and scenes which, in the body, he never saw? |
12353 | How in the world can you deify a person whom you do n''t remember? |
12353 | How were these contradictions to be reconciled? |
12353 | How were they evolved out of the notion of a confessed artificial bogle? |
12353 | How, then, did men come to believe in_ him_ as a terrible, all- seeing, all- knowing, creative, and potent moral being? |
12353 | I say''creative''because''he made all things,''and( as the bowler said about a''Yorker'')''what else can you call him?'' |
12353 | If so, where, precisely, ends its power of carrying facts? |
12353 | If we are not to call it''degeneration,''what are we to call it? |
12353 | If you can not have''an established ancestor- worship''till you abandon nomadic habits, how, while still nomadic, do you evolve a Supreme Being? |
12353 | In any case we ask for evidence how, in the''impenetrable forests''did a new Supreme Deity become universally known? |
12353 | In heaven''s name, why not? |
12353 | Is Mtanga evolved out of an ancestral ghost? |
12353 | Is it because, in a sufficient ratio of cases to provoke remark, early man has found the appearance and the death to be''things connected in fact''? |
12353 | Is it not certain that such a being could be conceived of by men who had never dreamed of ghosts? |
12353 | Is the idea that, by loosing the bonds, the seer demonstrates the agency of spirits, after the manner of the Davenport Brothers? |
12353 | It is a logical creed, but how was the Supreme Being evolved out of the ghost of a''people- devouring king''like Powhattan? |
12353 | Langlois?" |
12353 | Lastly, when were medicine- men such notable moralists? |
12353 | Miss Angus now asked,''Where is my little lady?'' |
12353 | Mr. Bissett asked,''What is the man''s expression?'' |
12353 | Mr. Oxford know? |
12353 | Now, how does this theory of false memory bear on coincidental hallucinations? |
12353 | On any such theories as these the belief in a moral Supreme Being is a very late( or a very early?) |
12353 | On what does he suppose that the belief of the savage is based? |
12353 | One of John Nicholson''s native adorers killed himself on news of that warrior''s death, saying,''What is left worth living for?'' |
12353 | Otherwise we might ask: Does Mr. Clodd prefer to be considered not''competent''or not''veracious''? |
12353 | Supposing that the arguments in this essay met with some acceptance, what effect would they have, if any, on our thoughts about religion? |
12353 | Surely you quite understand my reasoning?'' |
12353 | The South Guinea Creator, Anyambia(= good spirit? |
12353 | The question thus arises, Is there any truth whatever in these world- wide and world- old stories of inanimate objects acting like animated things? |
12353 | The real question is, Do such events occur among lower and higher races, beyond explanation by fraud and fortuitous coincidence? |
12353 | The remoteness of the occurrences is more remarkable, for, if these things happen, why were so few recent cases discovered? |
12353 | The watcher of conduct, the friendly, creative being of low savage faith, whence was he evolved? |
12353 | Then, of course, Nyankupon would receive the best sacrifices of all, as the most powerful deity? |
12353 | Therefore a corpse is not a thing( within the meaning of my General Law)''? |
12353 | This is very plausible, is it not? |
12353 | This_ must_ be so, because the Danites asked the young Levite whether it was not better to be priest to a clan than to an individual? |
12353 | To Mr. Tylor''s arguments, when I read them, I replied in the''Nineteenth Century,''January 1899:''Are Savage Gods Borrowed from Missionaries?'' |
12353 | To the psychologist who objects that our modern instances are mere anecdotes, we reply by asking,''Dear sir, what are_ your_ modern instances? |
12353 | Tom said to me,"Will you go with us to Joe''s, and you will see something you have never seen before?" |
12353 | Was He? |
12353 | Was there a coincidence at all in the Society''s cases printed in the Census? |
12353 | Was this simply a coincidence?'' |
12353 | We meet our old problem: How has this God, in the conception of whom there is so much philosophy, developed out of these hungry ghosts? |
12353 | What do you know of"Mrs. A.,"whom you still persistently cite as an example of morbid recurrent hallucinations? |
12353 | What do you want?" |
12353 | What is their practical tendency? |
12353 | What kind of creature was man when he first conceived the germs, or received the light, of Religion? |
12353 | What led Herr Parish, an honourable and clearheaded critic, into this maze of incorrect and contradictory assertions? |
12353 | What were the processes of the conversion of Twanyirika? |
12353 | What, not even if all hallucinations, or ninety- nine per cent., coincided with the death of the person seen? |
12353 | What, then, is the origin of Animism? |
12353 | Whence came the moral element in the idea of Jehovah? |
12353 | Where did she live? |
12353 | Where shall we find such a number of circumstances, agreeing to the corroboration of one fact? |
12353 | Who vouches for her, who heard her, who understood her? |
12353 | Why did Association choose that day, of all days in my life, for her solitary freak? |
12353 | Why do you not name a few out of the distinguished crowd? |
12353 | Why does he not take care when he pours it out?" |
12353 | Why on earth is association so fond of dying people-- granting the statistics, which are''another story''? |
12353 | Why only that once? |
12353 | Why was Nyankupon, the supposed new god of a new powerful set of strangers, left wholly unpropitiated? |
12353 | Why, or how, did a silly buffoon, or a confessed''bogle''arrive at being regarded as a patron of such morality as had been evolved? |
12353 | Why, then, is the phantasm supposed by savages to announce death? |
12353 | Why, then, when the wraith is seen, is the owner believed to be dying? |
12353 | Yet again, whence comes the moral element in Jehovah? |
12353 | Yet is this true, or are such experiences only ignored and put aside without serious consideration?'' |
12353 | [ 14] What, then, is the cause of the belief that a phantom of a man is a token of his death? |
12353 | [ 22] Who is right? |
12353 | [ 9] Here is the scientific explanation of Herr Parish:''The shimmer of a reflecting surface[ the sideboard?] |
12353 | _ C''est là le miracle!_''How much for this little veskit?'' |
12353 | _ Why_ do they perform these rites? |
19376 | Are you going? 19376 But do they give satisfaction?" |
19376 | But then,it will be said,"if she lives for the time being in the other world, why does she not relate her impressions when she wakes?" |
19376 | Can you bring Stainton Moses here? |
19376 | Do n''t you remember D.? |
19376 | Do n''t you remember, James, that we often talked of your brother and the trouble he gave us? 19376 Do you recognise this book?" |
19376 | Do you recognise this? |
19376 | Do you remember old Dyruputia( Dupuytren)? |
19376 | George, where did you know my son? |
19376 | George, where did you stay with us? |
19376 | Hear the whistle? |
19376 | I wanted to know if you remembered anything about the dogs killing sheep? |
19376 | Is that a blessing? 19376 No, James, I know you very well, but this one"( speaking again to Dr Hodgson),"Did you know the boys? |
19376 | Was this after you went west? |
19376 | Well, why do you not come out and say, Give me my step- mother''s name, and not confuse him about anything except what you really want? 19376 What, in their corrections?" |
19376 | When? |
19376 | Where''s Thompson? 19376 Why do you say that?" |
19376 | Yes, was there anything else the matter? |
19376 | A little later on, the following dialogue takes place between Miss Vance and George Pelham:"Now, whom do you have to correct your writings?" |
19376 | After all, are there not famous men of science who declare that genius itself is only a neurosis? |
19376 | An interesting question arises at the point we have reached--"What is Phinuit? |
19376 | And now, can there be a conclusion to this work? |
19376 | And what do they think of our life upon earth? |
19376 | And why does it make just the mistakes that an imperfect, finite spirit would make? |
19376 | Another time Robert Hyslop asks,"Do you remember the penknife I cut my nails with?" |
19376 | Another time she says, quite at the end,"Is that my body? |
19376 | Are these only analogies? |
19376 | Are these traits thrown in intentionally by the communicator, the better to prove his identity? |
19376 | At one of the first sittings he says, for example,"Do you remember what my feeling was about this life? |
19376 | At one sitting he asks,"Where is Tom?" |
19376 | At the 44th sitting,[28] Professor Lodge asked his Uncle Jerry, who is supposed to be communicating,"Do you remember anything when you were young?" |
19376 | At the end, Mrs Piper often asks this odd question,"Did you hear my head snap?" |
19376 | At this moment Dr Hodgson said,"Do you remember Mrs Warner?" |
19376 | But if this is so, why does not Phinuit own it? |
19376 | But presently George Pelham recognises him, and says,"How is your son? |
19376 | But then why should the communicators grow clear with time? |
19376 | But then, from whence did she take the other characters? |
19376 | But, when the communication is not direct, when an intermediary is speaking through the organism, what should we think? |
19376 | C. F. W.--"Have you any relatives living in Marseilles?" |
19376 | C. F. W.--"Was Dupuytren alive when you passed out?" |
19376 | C. F. W.--"What influence has my mind on what you tell me?" |
19376 | CONTENTS PAGE Preface by Sir Oliver Lodge xi Objects of the Society xix Chapter I 1 Mrs Piper''s mediumship-- Is mediumship a neurosis? |
19376 | Ca n''t you see me? |
19376 | Can it be said that there were no inexact statements made by the communicator during all these sittings? |
19376 | Can we say that the communicator George Pelham has never made a partially or wholly erroneous assertion? |
19376 | Did you know me?" |
19376 | Did you see the light? |
19376 | Did you think I was no longer friend of his? |
19376 | Do n''t you hear me? |
19376 | Do n''t you know his name is Henry? |
19376 | Do n''t you remember what a trouble I had to breathe? |
19376 | Do you know Dr Clinton Perry? |
19376 | Do you see the man with the cross shut out everybody?" |
19376 | Do you see the man with the cross[87] shut out everybody? |
19376 | Do you suppose that the swarms on the ground of the cave will run? |
19376 | Do you?" |
19376 | Does Phinuit better justify the title of doctor which he assumes? |
19376 | Does not their silence on this point indicate that they are only secondary personalities of the medium? |
19376 | Dr F. asked,[37]"Have you ever prescribed_ chiendent_ or_ Triticum repens_?" |
19376 | Dr H.--"He wants to see me?" |
19376 | Dr Hodgson asks,"What man?" |
19376 | Dr Hodgson.--"Well, do you see that there is a conflict, because the brain substance is, so to speak, saturated with her tendencies of thought?" |
19376 | Dr Hodgson.--"What about it?" |
19376 | Each spirit is not so dim(?) |
19376 | Finally, in order to attain to any result in these studies, money is needed-- why not say so? |
19376 | For pity''s sake, are you her little daughter?" |
19376 | G. P.--"Well, have you forgotten all I told you before?" |
19376 | George Pelham is asked,"Could you not tell us something which your mother has done?" |
19376 | H. W.--"How is Alice?" |
19376 | H. W.--"How''s the Society, Lucy Stone and all of them?" |
19376 | H. W.--"Where is my big silk handkerchief?" |
19376 | H. W.--"Where is my thimble?" |
19376 | H. W.--"Where''s William and doctor?" |
19376 | H. W.--"Who''s Sarah?" |
19376 | Have they any reason to be ashamed? |
19376 | He asked,"Do you know what the trouble was when you passed out?" |
19376 | He asks Dr Hodgson,"Do you know where the Hospital of God is( Hospital de Dieu)?" |
19376 | He asks him,"Why do n''t you write on this subject?" |
19376 | He asks,"What is Rogers writing now?" |
19376 | He has very curious ideas about things and people; he receives a great deal about people from themselves(? |
19376 | He said to her at a sitting,"Katharine, how is the violin? |
19376 | He sends them expressions of affection,"Have I forgotten anybody, James, my son? |
19376 | He welcomes Mr and Mrs Howard in a characteristic way:"Jim, is that you? |
19376 | He will say,"Do you remember our being together in such a place?" |
19376 | Here''s a little child called Stevenson-- two of them-- one named Mannie( Minnie?) |
19376 | How can an infinite power seem at times so limited, so finite, when the conditions remain unchanged? |
19376 | How could Phinuit guess this by simply touching a lock of hair? |
19376 | How is it that telepathy, which can do so much, owns itself incapable, or nearly so, of determining the moment when an action has been performed? |
19376 | How should such puny creatures as ourselves hope to solve the problems of the universe by_ a priori_ reasoning? |
19376 | How then should the shape we men have in this world persist in the next? |
19376 | How''s Mary? |
19376 | How''s father and all the folks? |
19376 | Howard.--"Our conversation, then, is something like telephoning?" |
19376 | I do not remember any trouble-- tell me what it was about? |
19376 | I feel so weak.... Is that my handkerchief?" |
19376 | I made theories all my life, and what good did it do me? |
19376 | If they are, as they say, disincarnated spirits, who formerly lived in bodies, why do they not say who they were? |
19376 | Is it a woman or a man?" |
19376 | Is it justified by the facts of experimental or spontaneous observation among psychologists? |
19376 | Is n''t he writing something about me?" |
19376 | It will come to that, without doubt, but will it be soon? |
19376 | John Hart, at the first sitting at which George Pelham appeared, gave some sleeve- links he was wearing, and asked,"Who gave them to me?" |
19376 | Mr Carruthers suddenly perceives the presence of Dr Hodgson and says,"You are not Robert Hyslop''s son, are you? |
19376 | Mr E.[17]--"Lodge, how are you? |
19376 | Mr Howard.--"Vernon?" |
19376 | Mr T.--"What does your father do?" |
19376 | Mrs B.--"Can you tell me where that letter is now that you wrote?" |
19376 | Mrs B.--"Can you tell me, sister, how many brothers you have in spirit life?" |
19376 | Mrs B.--"Can''t you tell me more about it?" |
19376 | Mrs B.--"How long has he been?" |
19376 | Mrs B.--"Sarah Grover?" |
19376 | Mrs B.--"What Alice?" |
19376 | Mrs B.--"What lot?" |
19376 | Mrs Blodgett says,"Hannah, tell me whose and what is that?" |
19376 | Mrs H.--"Well, what does he want to say to me? |
19376 | Mrs H.--"Yes; which Aunt Ellen?" |
19376 | Mrs Piper and the Society for Psychical Research CHAPTER I Mrs Piper''s mediumship-- Is mediumship a neurosis? |
19376 | Must we believe in it? |
19376 | Must we suppose that Dame Telepathy is a mere incarnation of the demon of fraud and deceit? |
19376 | Nevertheless, George Pelham asks her at once,"How is the society getting on?" |
19376 | O. L.--"Is it bad for the medium?" |
19376 | O. L.--"What sort of person is this Dr Phinuit?" |
19376 | O. L.--"You have seen my Uncle Jerry, have n''t you? |
19376 | Of what use, then, are the small objects given to the medium? |
19376 | Phinuit jokingly felt the mouth with his hands and asked,"What is this thing with a tube?" |
19376 | Phinuit likes to say,"Bonjour, comment vous portez vous? |
19376 | Phinuit seemed much surprised, and said,"What is the English of that?" |
19376 | Phinuit.--"Do you know Mr Clark-- a tall, dark man, in the body? |
19376 | Phinuit.--"How are you, Alfred? |
19376 | Phinuit.--"It is a gentleman; and do you remember your Aunt Ellen?" |
19376 | Phinuit.--"Oh, you did? |
19376 | Professor Hyslop asks,"Do you know why she grieves?" |
19376 | Professor Lodge.--"Can she send her name any better?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"Can you tell me what he said?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"Did you tell Hodgson this?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"Is he asleep?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"Is he far advanced?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"Stainton Moses has been nearly three years in the spirit.... Do you mean to say that he is not yet free from confusion?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"Was he a true medium?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"Was not he good?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"What do you mean?" |
19376 | Professor N.--"You mean about progression by repentance?" |
19376 | Professor Newbold.--"Did you ever know of him or know what he did?" |
19376 | Professor Newbold.--"You taught that evil spirits tempt sinners to their own destruction?" |
19376 | Professor Newbold[75] then asked,--"Do you know of Stainton Moses?" |
19376 | Shall we say that while he was holding hands he had laid in a provision of knowledge for the whole half- hour? |
19376 | Should we each admit conditionally the spiritualist hypothesis? |
19376 | Should we follow them? |
19376 | Something cold, is n''t it?" |
19376 | Ted''s mother and.... And how''s Susie? |
19376 | The final phrases are always Mrs Piper''s own questions and remarks: When she says,"Did you see the light?" |
19376 | The one that lost the purse?" |
19376 | The question was,"Do you remember Samuel Cooper, and can you say anything about him?" |
19376 | Then how shall we understand the errors and confusions of the communicators? |
19376 | Then why does it make mistakes? |
19376 | Then, what interest could they have in deceiving us? |
19376 | These speeches bring into the foreground the question:"What becomes of the medium''s spirit during the trance, if there is a spirit?" |
19376 | To begin with, what is the origin of this telepathic hypothesis? |
19376 | What can this"influence"be? |
19376 | What does he mean by this? |
19376 | What is it? |
19376 | What made the man''s hair all fall off?" |
19376 | What man living has not made a hundred such mistakes? |
19376 | What should such mediums fear? |
19376 | What''s his name?" |
19376 | What, on the telepathic hypothesis, has had the power to create them? |
19376 | Whence did the medium take them? |
19376 | Whence does he come? |
19376 | Whence his name? |
19376 | Where are my glasses"( the medium passes her hands over her eyes)? |
19376 | Where is the little outhouse?" |
19376 | Where''s brother?" |
19376 | Where''s doctor? |
19376 | Where''s my comb? |
19376 | Who was it went to Finland, or Norway?" |
19376 | Whom shall we believe? |
19376 | Why does he do that?" |
19376 | Why is that?" |
19376 | Why should they become lucid at the time when they ought to be still more confused, if the telepathic hypothesis is the correct one? |
19376 | Why were the results so poor? |
19376 | Why? |
19376 | Why?" |
19376 | Will it be said that these small dramas resemble the creations of the same kind which occur in delirium or dreams? |
19376 | Will you comfort her? |
19376 | Would it not have been wiser of Phinuit to hold his tongue than to tell us a mass of improbabilities? |
19376 | You are not a great one for mathematics, are you?" |
19376 | You certainly must remember it?" |
19376 | You do not mean with me, do you?" |
19376 | You have just learned, have n''t you? |
19376 | You know me, do n''t you?" |
19376 | You remember about my dress? |
19376 | You remember all about my money? |
19376 | You remember his big chair where he used to sit and think?" |
19376 | You''ll know best and correct(?). |
19376 | Your Uncle Jerry tells me to ask.... By the way, do you know Mr E.''s been here; did you hear him?" |
19376 | [ 34] C. F. W.--"What medical men were prominent in Paris in your time?" |
19376 | [ 67] Professor Newbold.--"Does the soul carry with it into its new life all its passions and animal appetites?" |
19376 | and as James Hyslop did not understand what Tom he was speaking of, the communicator added,"Tom, the horse, what has become of him?" |
19376 | have lost a child, have n''t they? |
19376 | little Minnie Stevenson? |
19376 | they will say,"is that all that spirits who return from the other world have to say to us? |
19376 | why do n''t you speak? |
30540 | And I, then, as the most unworthy part of it? |
30540 | And that? |
30540 | And the child? |
30540 | Are you a stranger in the country-- but newly come to us? |
30540 | But have you no sick here? |
30540 | Canst thou administer holiness to a sinful soul? |
30540 | Canst thou heal a sick spirit? |
30540 | Did Charley live? |
30540 | Did something really ail him that night when his mother-- that miserable night? |
30540 | Did the child_ die_? |
30540 | Do n''t you_ feel_ me? 30540 Do n''t you_ want_ to see Him?" |
30540 | Do you not hear? 30540 Do you wonder now?" |
30540 | Do you? |
30540 | Does he ever stay late at the office? |
30540 | Esmerald--"Oh, what? |
30540 | Have I ever fretted you about coming, Esmerald? 30540 Have you seen the Lord?" |
30540 | Helen? 30540 How does it happen that Mrs. Thorne-- You say this message was dated at midnight?" |
30540 | How is it she did n''t_ know_ by that time? 30540 Is it a kind of game?" |
30540 | Is it, Doctor? 30540 Is the boy yours?" |
30540 | Jason,he said, after an instant''s pause,"pick up the''Herald,''will you? |
30540 | Mrs. Decker dead? 30540 Oh,"I said indifferently,"is that all?" |
30540 | Oh,she said joyously,"have you seen Him_ yet_?" |
30540 | Papa, who is worship? |
30540 | Tell me,I said, turning toward him who had brought me thither,"how shall I make compensation for my entertainment? |
30540 | Was n''t he a quick- tempered man? |
30540 | Was she conscious to the end? |
30540 | Was there by chance nothing more? |
30540 | What did you say? 30540 What do you desire for him?" |
30540 | What had you? |
30540 | What is Christ, papa? 30540 What is that dog about?" |
30540 | What were your possessions in the life yonder? |
30540 | What_ did_ you bring with you? |
30540 | When did this dispatch come, Jason? |
30540 | Where are you hurt? |
30540 | Where''s the baby, Helen? |
30540 | Who is? 30540 Why do n''t you tell him it was I?" |
30540 | Why do you not answer the child, Esmerald Thorne? |
30540 | Wo n''t you speak to me? |
30540 | Yes, sir? |
30540 | 25 What Can She Do? |
30540 | 51 Odd or Even? |
30540 | A chance to endow him with every social opportunity, every educational privilege, such as it is a father''s pride to enrich his child wherewith? |
30540 | A father''s personal position? |
30540 | Alas, what art had I, in that high science so far above me, that my earth- bound gaze had never reached unto it? |
30540 | All those forms of personality which go with intellectual position and the use of it? |
30540 | Alone in all that blessedness, was I bereft? |
30540 | And how should I be understood if I told the story? |
30540 | And wherefore? |
30540 | Are you gone deaf and blind? |
30540 | Art Thou verily that ancient Myth which we were wo nt to call Almighty God?" |
30540 | As the young do? |
30540 | Brake? |
30540 | But they are terribly cut up about it.... Chowder? |
30540 | Ca n''t you have it attended to? |
30540 | Ca n''t you help me? |
30540 | Can you not see? |
30540 | Can you step? |
30540 | Chivalry for the helpless? |
30540 | Command of science? |
30540 | Developed skill? |
30540 | Devotion to a therapeutic creed? |
30540 | Did I love her the less, because the distance of the worshipper had dwindled to the lover''s clasp? |
30540 | Did I this or that? |
30540 | Did she ask for me?" |
30540 | Did these, and only these, sources of conduct_ explain_ the great hospital? |
30540 | Did you think I would remember_ that_?" |
30540 | Do n''t you hear a word I say? |
30540 | Do n''t you hear me?" |
30540 | Do n''t you see? |
30540 | Do n''t you suppose I know how to drive? |
30540 | Do you mean to say you do n''t know who the child_ is_?" |
30540 | Drayton?" |
30540 | Emotion? |
30540 | Enthusiasm for an important professional cause? |
30540 | Even the love of science? |
30540 | Extended fame? |
30540 | Faith,"did I startle you? |
30540 | Friendship to the friendless? |
30540 | Frost, last night, was n''t there? |
30540 | Gazell?" |
30540 | Generosity to the poor? |
30540 | Habit? |
30540 | Had I been so much less that was noble, so much more that was low? |
30540 | Had my goddess departed from her divinity, my queen from her throne, my star from her heaven? |
30540 | Had the miracle gone out of it? |
30540 | Have you seen this abominable canard? |
30540 | Have you seen_ that_?" |
30540 | Helen?" |
30540 | How are sick folks going to get along without their doctor? |
30540 | How came it? |
30540 | How did the sensitiveness to self, the passion for fame, the joy of power, amalgamate with all that noble feeling? |
30540 | How does it strike you?" |
30540 | How know we what law of selection our memories will obey in that system of mental relations which we call"forever"? |
30540 | How shall I express the sickening aspect of the scene to a man but newly dead? |
30540 | How shall I obey, who am the most unworthy of any soul upon whom has been laid the burden of the higher utterance? |
30540 | How shall I tell the story unless I be understood? |
30540 | How was I to foster him? |
30540 | How was I, being at discord from it, to bring my child into harmony with it? |
30540 | How would she hold me to account for him? |
30540 | How, now, was I to compass this national kind of happiness for my son? |
30540 | I answered,"how can I teach you that which I myself know not?" |
30540 | I caught myself thinking this preposterous thing: Suppose it were all over? |
30540 | I cried, as she made a signal of farewell,"are you not going to help me-- is nobody going to help me take care of this child?" |
30540 | I cried,"_ you_ know me, do n''t you? |
30540 | I cried,"what is the meaning of this? |
30540 | I have been thinking that possibly you may be able-- and willing-- to approach her for me?" |
30540 | I might be a spiritual outcast, but what was to become of Boy? |
30540 | I must say to her-- I must tell her-- Why, who in all the world but me could do_ anything_ for Helen now? |
30540 | I pleaded,"no hospitals or places of need? |
30540 | I was silenced by being gently asked: What could I do? |
30540 | I wonder if we have any scale of measurement for what women suffer?" |
30540 | If I cherished her as my own soul, what could I give her back, who had given herself to me? |
30540 | If in the body, where was the common element between that attenuated invalid and my robust organization? |
30540 | If in the soul, between the suffering saint and the joyous man of the world, where again was our common moral protoplasm? |
30540 | If she tripped upstairs? |
30540 | If the child''s crib took fire and she put it out, and herself received one of those deadly shocks from burns not in themselves mortal? |
30540 | If the last, what species of vigour? |
30540 | In a world of souls, what was mine-- miserable, ignorant, half- developed, wholly unfit-- what was mine to do with his? |
30540 | In that spot, in that way, of all others, why was I withheld? |
30540 | Is it people''s Mother? |
30540 | Is n''t that dinner ready? |
30540 | Is there no use for it all, in this state of being which I have come to?" |
30540 | Is there_ no one_ in this place who hears? |
30540 | It said:"_ Have you seen my husband, to- night?_"and it was signed,"_ Helen Thorne._"Oh, poor Helen!... |
30540 | It seems to me impossible in any set of conditions that memory could blot that experience from my being; but of that what know I? |
30540 | Loving influence? |
30540 | Might not a woman_ love_ herself into continued existence who felt for any creature what she did for that child? |
30540 | Oh, how can they?" |
30540 | Or am I struck dumb? |
30540 | Or sees me,_ either_?" |
30540 | Or selection? |
30540 | Or shall I get a waggon, and a farm- hand? |
30540 | Or the surgeon who had created and sustained it? |
30540 | Passed beyond the old system of suffering, why should he? |
30540 | Power to push the little fellow to the front? |
30540 | Public power? |
30540 | Quail? |
30540 | Rather, I might say, when does the blue become the violet, within the prism? |
30540 | Sacrifice for a surgical doctrine? |
30540 | So much of self and gain? |
30540 | So wholly did she rule my soul-- how could I stoop to care the more for hers, because she was beyond my reach? |
30540 | So?--Will you try it? |
30540 | Suppose Helen thought that my unaccountable absence had something to do with that scene between us? |
30540 | Suppose my wife were to die? |
30540 | Suppose some accident befell her? |
30540 | Suppose somebody had got the news to her that the horse had been seen dashing free of the buggy, or had returned alone to the stable, panting and cut? |
30540 | Suppose we never saw each other again? |
30540 | Sympathy with the wretched? |
30540 | Tell me, Doctor, what do you think of this place? |
30540 | The love of healing? |
30540 | The relief of suffering? |
30540 | The sum of the false so large? |
30540 | The''Herald''says-- Where is that paper?" |
30540 | Thought? |
30540 | To what had all those old attainments come? |
30540 | To- night? |
30540 | Vigour? |
30540 | Was it possible that I could stand by and see Charley_ die_? |
30540 | Was it thus, I said, or so? |
30540 | Was the balance of motives so disproportionate after all? |
30540 | Was the item of the true so small? |
30540 | Was there so little love of wife and child? |
30540 | Were it for me to expect to be successful in that solemn effort which is as old as time, and as hopeless as the eyes of mourners? |
30540 | Were these the motives, all the motives, the_ whole_ motives, of him who had in my name ministered in that place so long? |
30540 | What does this mean?" |
30540 | What fine, unclassified senses had the highly- organized animal by which he should become aware of me? |
30540 | What has become of your wisdom and your power? |
30540 | What is it for?" |
30540 | What is the custom of the country? |
30540 | What is the sum of wealth represented within these walls to- day? |
30540 | What is to be said? |
30540 | What knew I of the system of things on which a blow upon the head had ushered me all unready, reluctant, and uninstructed as I was? |
30540 | What shall I call that difference with which the man''s love differs when he has won the woman? |
30540 | What shall I say? |
30540 | What she, for instance, by that time was suffering, oh, who in the wide world else could guess or dream? |
30540 | What then? |
30540 | What was death? |
30540 | What was that in the individual which gave it strength to stay? |
30540 | What was the life- force in this new condition of things? |
30540 | What went I out, with the heavenly, happy people, for to see? |
30540 | What word is there to say? |
30540 | What worse punishment were there, verily, than the consciousness of having done the sort of deed that I had? |
30540 | What would Helen say? |
30540 | What would Helen think by this time? |
30540 | What wouldst Thou with me? |
30540 | What young creature ever loved like that? |
30540 | What_ made_ us go on living? |
30540 | When does the dawn become the day upon the summer sky? |
30540 | When does the high tide begin to turn beneath the August moon? |
30540 | Whence came that awful order? |
30540 | Whence came the reproductive power which was able to carry on the species under such terrible antagonism as the fact of death? |
30540 | Where did the alloy come in? |
30540 | Where did the motive deteriorate? |
30540 | Where gainest Thou Thy force upon me? |
30540 | Where has it all gone to, Doctor? |
30540 | Where is that advertisement of Grope County Iowa Mortgage? |
30540 | Where was the central cell? |
30540 | Where was the highly organized one of all my patients, who had baffled death for love of me? |
30540 | Who and what are you, that make of death a bitterer thing than life can guess? |
30540 | Who but me could understand? |
30540 | Who could be? |
30540 | Who ever thought anything could happen to the_ Doctor_? |
30540 | Who had the clairvoyance or clairaudience, or the wonderful tip in the scale of health and disease, which causes such phenomena? |
30540 | Who knew better than he what would be the professional significance of the circumstance that Dr. Thorne was seen intoxicated down town at midnight? |
30540 | Who notices when the useful thing gets too full? |
30540 | Who of us has not felt at the Play, the strong allegorical power in the coming of the first actress before the house? |
30540 | Whom, for very rapture, did they melt to welcome? |
30540 | Why, Doctor, are_ you_?" |
30540 | Why, then, should he not the better love? |
30540 | You''re in my way-- don''t you see? |
30540 | do n''t you_ see_ me, Brake?" |
30540 | exclaimed the broker sharply,"what is this? |
30540 | said a low, sweet voice,"Doctor?" |
39212 | And are you glad to see me, Gertie? |
39212 | And do you care for me still? |
39212 | And if you touched and handled them? |
39212 | And see you? |
39212 | And the same silk? |
39212 | And what can I do, May? |
39212 | And what is your name? |
39212 | And will it? |
39212 | And your famous knots? |
39212 | Anything wrong? |
39212 | Are there any letters from China? |
39212 | Are those your daughters, sir? |
39212 | Are you Kate''s friend? |
39212 | Are you any relation to Major M----? |
39212 | Are you coming to see us to- morrow? |
39212 | Are you my little Gertie, darling? |
39212 | Are you_ quite sure_,I asked,"that it is the same paper in which you wrapt it?" |
39212 | But how about the arterial silk? |
39212 | But how can I marry again unless he dies? |
39212 | But if you heard them speak? |
39212 | But where are your sisters? |
39212 | But where is''Yonnie''? |
39212 | But why should it make her ill? |
39212 | But why? 39212 But your crest and seal?" |
39212 | But_ when_ do you see me? |
39212 | But_ when_? |
39212 | Ca n''t you tell us who you are? |
39212 | Can not you see? |
39212 | Can you tell me why that gentleman left so suddenly? |
39212 | Did I weep? |
39212 | Did n''t I say it was in the church at----? |
39212 | Did you know the spirit? |
39212 | Do n''t you remember I cut it off just before I left this world? |
39212 | Do you expect to see any friends to- night? |
39212 | Do you know who_ I_ am? |
39212 | Do you mean to tell me you are frightened of your medium? 39212 Florence, my darling,"I said,"is this_ really_ you?" |
39212 | Good gracious,they said,"do n''t you know that that hotel was built on the site of the old barracks? |
39212 | Had she any peculiarity about her feet? |
39212 | Has not the coffin left my house? |
39212 | Has not the death you spoke of taken place_ now_? |
39212 | Have you come for me, my friend? |
39212 | Have you ever seen anybody whom you recognized? |
39212 | Have you ever seen your grave? |
39212 | Have you never lost a relation of her age? |
39212 | How can I tell this is_ your_ hand? |
39212 | How could she come to me then? |
39212 | How did you meet him? |
39212 | How do you account for it? |
39212 | How long will it take you to do so? |
39212 | How was it your body was never found? |
39212 | Is it my husband''s? |
39212 | Is it you, Emily? |
39212 | Is there anyone here who recognizes the name of''Bluebell''? |
39212 | Is_ this_ the death you prophesied? |
39212 | It is, indeed,said the man;"and it is in the church at----?" |
39212 | It seems too marvellous to be true; but how_ can_ I disbelieve it, when_ here she is_? |
39212 | Jones,she falters,"are you happy?" |
39212 | Katieenjoyed my surprise, and asked me,"Ai n''t I prettier than Florrie now?" |
39212 | May I take you in my arms? |
39212 | My darling child,I said, as I embraced her,"why did you ask for''Bluebell''?" |
39212 | Nor your seal been tampered with? |
39212 | Of what was my chasuble made? |
39212 | Pourquoi, Valerie? |
39212 | QUI BONO? |
39212 | Sha n''t I come soon, darling? |
39212 | Stop a minute,I said,"this person whom you have alluded to so often-- have I ever met him?" |
39212 | Surely you are not suffering still? |
39212 | Then by what means,I argued,"do you know that I am Florence Marryat? |
39212 | Then will you open the packet? |
39212 | To which medium shall I go? |
39212 | Was there foul play? |
39212 | What a mother? |
39212 | What are_ graves_ to us? 39212 What did you do to me last night?" |
39212 | What do you make of it? |
39212 | What do you wish me to do for you? |
39212 | What is the matter with me, Sir John? |
39212 | What is the matter, dear? |
39212 | What is the matter? |
39212 | What is your own name? |
39212 | What is your real name? |
39212 | What necktie? |
39212 | What shall I call you, then? |
39212 | What was his name? |
39212 | What was his object in doing so? |
39212 | What where you doing there? |
39212 | What''s a dog? |
39212 | What''s the matter, Peter? |
39212 | When did he murder you? |
39212 | Where am I to send? |
39212 | Where did you meet him? |
39212 | Where is my chasuble? |
39212 | Where is your dress, Katie? |
39212 | Whereabouts? |
39212 | Who are you? |
39212 | Who are you? |
39212 | Who has told you of it? |
39212 | Who is he, Dewdrop? |
39212 | Who is it for? |
39212 | Who_ can_ it be? |
39212 | Whom have you seen? |
39212 | Whom will you bring? |
39212 | Why do you wish to know? |
39212 | Will you come to me, darling? |
39212 | Will you explain your meaning to me? |
39212 | Will you fetch some one for us, Charlie? |
39212 | Yes, I do recognize you, my dear child,I replied;"but what makes you come to me?" |
39212 | You do n''t want to come back then, Ted? |
39212 | You know her name, do n''t you? |
39212 | Your knots have not been untied? |
39212 | _ Forgive!_I repeated,"What have I to forgive?" |
39212 | _ Not alive!_she echoed;"did n''t God make it?" |
39212 | _ You do n''t recognize him?_she repeated in an incredulous tone,"then you must be very dull. |
39212 | ( At this juncture I asked,"How can I prevent it?") |
39212 | ("Did the trouble I had before your birth affect your spirit, Florence?") |
39212 | ("Do you ever see your father?") |
39212 | ("Do you know your sisters, Eva and Ethel?") |
39212 | ("What can I do to bring you nearer to me?") |
39212 | Abrow?" |
39212 | And did it ever strike you that there is something else recorded in the Bible? |
39212 | And if Mr. Haxby has played a trick on me, as you suppose, why did you not discover the slit when you examined the box, before opening?" |
39212 | And what_ good_ does it do? |
39212 | And which, amongst the philosophers I have alluded to, could suggest a simpler mode of communication? |
39212 | Are you quite happy?" |
39212 | At this remark I laughed; and Mr. Abrow said,"Is she come for you, madam? |
39212 | But do we not often ask the same question with respect to those still existent here below? |
39212 | But how did I know of the occurrence the_ night before_ it took place? |
39212 | But shall I gain it?" |
39212 | But what has Religion given us instead? |
39212 | But why afraid of an impossibility? |
39212 | Ca n''t you stop them?" |
39212 | Did you ever pay Johnson the seventeen pounds twelve you received for my saddlery?" |
39212 | Did you suppose I was going to let you waste all your power with them, when I knew I was going home with you and Mrs. Ross- Church? |
39212 | Do n''t you wish you had my garden? |
39212 | Do you answer to the description?" |
39212 | Do you know who I am?" |
39212 | Do you see that it is Florrie lying there?" |
39212 | Do you suppose that we poor mortals have been thus abandoned? |
39212 | Do you think I have never seen you since that time, nor heard anything about you? |
39212 | Do you think it is possible he may not have sailed after all?" |
39212 | Does the cap fit?" |
39212 | Fitzgerald?" |
39212 | For whom do you come?" |
39212 | Have they been ordered back? |
39212 | Have they perished? |
39212 | Have you been playing any of your tricks upon me?" |
39212 | Have you quite forgotten?" |
39212 | He kept on reiterating,"Who brought me here? |
39212 | He replied,"Forgotten little Flo? |
39212 | He says,''Is Mrs. Ross- Church at home?'' |
39212 | He seemed quite delighted to be able to manifest so indisputably like himself, and remarked more than once,"I''m not much like a girl now, am I, Ma?" |
39212 | Her incessant questions of"What''s a father?" |
39212 | How was that?" |
39212 | How_ dared_ you send for me?" |
39212 | I am sure when she let it fall again there must have been thirty or forty holes, and"Katie"said,"Is n''t that a nice cullender?" |
39212 | I asked her,"Are you cold?" |
39212 | I asked her,"When will my husband die?" |
39212 | I asked the influence,"Who are you?" |
39212 | I asked,"Are you_ quite_ sure that the packet could not be undone without your detecting it?" |
39212 | I asked,"By what name shall we pray for him?" |
39212 | I asked,"Is it my own coffin?" |
39212 | I asked,"Who are you?" |
39212 | I asked,"and for whom do you come?" |
39212 | I exclaimed,"have you come back to see me at last?" |
39212 | I exclaimed,"is anything wrong with her?" |
39212 | I exclaimed,"where is your beard?" |
39212 | I had never set eyes on him till that moment; but I said at once to Mr. Grossmith,"Do you see that officer in the undress uniform? |
39212 | I said,"What''s the good of my coming here? |
39212 | I said,"_ Who is this?_"and she whispered,"_ Florence_,"and laid her head down on my shoulder, and kissed my neck. |
39212 | I said,"after all these years?" |
39212 | I said,"why did you come to me last night in a green riding habit?" |
39212 | I said;"ca n''t you speak to me to- night?" |
39212 | I suppose you are a Catholic?" |
39212 | I whispered,"Who is this?" |
39212 | If I had not been convinced before, how could I have helped being convinced then? |
39212 | If her story was untrue,_ who_ had so minutely informed her of a circumstance which it was to the interest of all concerned to keep to themselves? |
39212 | In"Young Mr. Ainslie''s Courtship"he has written a story which is charming, witty? |
39212 | Is it to be wondered at? |
39212 | Is that the case?" |
39212 | Is that the certificate you want?" |
39212 | Is this logical? |
39212 | Is this_ your_ room? |
39212 | Is_ this_ belief in the existence of a tender Father and a blessed home waiting to receive them on the other side? |
39212 | Johnny Cope, is it you?" |
39212 | Lean,"she said, hurriedly, noting my surprise,"do n''t you know me? |
39212 | May I take it away with me?" |
39212 | Mr. Stacke said to me,"Who is this?" |
39212 | Mrs. Holmes said to me,"Can not you remember_ anyone_ of that age connected with you in the spirit world? |
39212 | Necromancy is a terrible word, is it not? |
39212 | No cousin, nor niece, nor sister, nor the child of a friend?" |
39212 | Presently a soft voice said,"Aunt Flo, do n''t you know me?" |
39212 | Presently he turned to me and said, rather sheepishly,"Do you believe in this sort of thing?" |
39212 | Presently she asked me,"Who are you?" |
39212 | Prince Albert whispered to me,"Have you got anything?" |
39212 | Several times he exclaimed with knitted brows,"What is the matter with that door? |
39212 | Shall I ever hear from you again?" |
39212 | She and I were quite alone in the drawing- room, and after a little while I whispered softly,"Bessie, are you asleep?" |
39212 | She said to me,"Is that_ you_, Miss Marryat?" |
39212 | The only question appears to be,"_ What_ is it, and_ whence_ does the power proceed?" |
39212 | The priest started, but continued--"Who put it there?" |
39212 | Then Mr. Eglinton said to Mr. Lee,"Have you any friend in the spirit- world from whom you would like to hear? |
39212 | They were negroes without doubt; but how about the negro bouquet? |
39212 | Towns prognosticated on that occasion) Page 201,"conducter"changed to"conductor"("Did you know the spirit?" |
39212 | What are you doing?" |
39212 | What becomes, in the face of this story, of the impassable gulf between the earthly and spiritual spheres? |
39212 | What good do they do? |
39212 | What good is it to have one''s faith in Immortality and another life confirmed in an age of freethought, scepticism and utter callousness? |
39212 | What has become of them? |
39212 | What is more wonderful than the hatching of an egg? |
39212 | What is there to prevent your senses misleading you at the present moment?" |
39212 | What were they born for? |
39212 | When it came to my turn to question him, I said,"Do you see where I shall be to- morrow morning?" |
39212 | When we asked him what he was doing, he turned to us and said,"Are you ladies Spiritualists?" |
39212 | Wherein, then, lies the terror of the idea that these liberated spirits will have the privilege of roaming the universe as they will? |
39212 | Who brought me here?" |
39212 | Who can account for such things? |
39212 | Who can say where it dwells, or that it is not permitted to return to this world, perhaps to live in it altogether? |
39212 | Who does not remember the picture of the afflicted widow, for whom the medium has just called up the departed Jones? |
39212 | Who has fixed the abode of the spirit after death? |
39212 | Why ca n''t I speak at other places? |
39212 | Why do you never write to me?" |
39212 | Why has n''t Johnson received that money?" |
39212 | Why should I be disbelieved? |
39212 | Why should I be so? |
39212 | Why should I? |
39212 | Why should I? |
39212 | Why should he expect to be more kindly welcomed by a spiritual one? |
39212 | Why should it be? |
39212 | Why should what was_ then_ not be_ now_, and what more harm is there to apply for their aid now than a few thousand years ago? |
39212 | Why should you deceive him by saying so? |
39212 | Why should you suppose that they were permitted on the earth then and not permitted now? |
39212 | Why should you trust your senses in one case more than in the other? |
39212 | Why were they ever permitted to come? |
39212 | Why? |
39212 | Will he die?" |
39212 | Will you be my wife?'' |
39212 | Will you forgive too?" |
39212 | Will you not come to me?" |
39212 | Women would be told they should look after their own interests in the one case-- so why not in the other? |
39212 | You are not afraid of me, are you?" |
39212 | You''ll come here again, wo n''t you?" |
39212 | _ What is it?_"There, my friends, I confess you stagger me! |
39212 | _ What_ was it that had made this old lady foresee what no one else had seen? |
39212 | _ whom_ have you there? |
39212 | and I replied,"Yes; did n''t you send for me?" |
39212 | and she said,"Would n''t you be cold if you had nothing but this white thing on?" |
39212 | and the answer came back,"Do n''t you know me? |
39212 | do n''t you know me?" |
39212 | does it seem strange to you to hear your''baby''say things as if she knew them? |
39212 | is it really you? |
39212 | is n''t it lovely? |
39212 | is this really you?" |
39212 | mamma, why did you go away?--why did you go away?" |
39212 | may I try if your hair is a wig?" |
39212 | she exclaimed,"I said I would come with you and look after you-- didn''t I?" |
39212 | to where?--to heaven? |
39212 | what did Captain Gordon die of?" |
39212 | what did you do that for? |
39212 | what do you see?" |
39279 | And how did you write your name on this piece of paper? |
39279 | And you? |
39279 | Are you happy? |
39279 | Art thou there, spirit? |
39279 | Bound? |
39279 | But we shall perhaps have raps, at any rate? |
39279 | But where is he? |
39279 | Can we not then keep the golden mean between negation, which denies all, and credulity, which accepts all? 39279 Can you get a reply to a question I am going to ask you?" |
39279 | Can you see to read this newspaper? |
39279 | Did you hear? |
39279 | Does it wish to communicate? |
39279 | Faith? 39279 For what purpose?" |
39279 | From what point did your balloon start? |
39279 | Have you something to say to us? |
39279 | How many numbers are there on the page that I have been looking at? |
39279 | How shall we find it? |
39279 | How should I dare,said she,"to enter your chamber during the night?" |
39279 | I? 39279 If there is a hand there,"says M. Flammarion,"could it perhaps grasp an object?" |
39279 | If you could take me in the evening--"But, madame, it is impossible--"Why? 39279 In a spontaneous somnambulistic state?" |
39279 | In her normal state? |
39279 | In what book? |
39279 | In what country? |
39279 | In what epoch did you live? |
39279 | In what month did the event take place? |
39279 | In what year did you die? |
39279 | Is he willing to give his name? |
39279 | Is it really you, Krishna? |
39279 | Is there a single known example of movement produced without a force acting from the outside? 39279 Is there a spirit there?" |
39279 | Is there a spirit there? |
39279 | Of what color? |
39279 | Oh,cries the king, in great surprise,"why do you alone confront me without bending the knee?" |
39279 | On what shelf? |
39279 | Sire,said the unknown,"must I be frank? |
39279 | Stitched? |
39279 | The aeronaut? |
39279 | Then it is a materialization? |
39279 | Then the volume is bound in boards? |
39279 | Was it the chambermaid? |
39279 | Was it the medium herself? |
39279 | Was she in the trance state? |
39279 | What do you mean by that? |
39279 | What month? |
39279 | What were you hunting for in our sleeping- room? |
39279 | Where did you fall? |
39279 | Where did you know me? |
39279 | Where? |
39279 | Who are you? |
39279 | Why do you take my hand? |
39279 | Will you please tell me why? |
39279 | [ 46]Oh, what is he going to say to us?" |
39279 | _ Astronomia._"Of what date? |
39279 | ''Can you tell me,''I asked him,''why the satellites of Uranus make their revolution from east to west and not from west to east?'' |
39279 | --"Did you see?" |
39279 | --"To never make use of any remedies except those of the learned faculty of medicine, even should the patient burst and die of his disease?" |
39279 | A moment after, returning in thought to our last séance, she says,"Were you completely satisfied?" |
39279 | And how about last wills and testaments stolen away, and the last will of the dead ignored and their intentions purposely misinterpreted? |
39279 | And how? |
39279 | And if it did, might it not amuse itself thus? |
39279 | And in a hundred thousand years? |
39279 | And might this mirror also not receive and reproduce impressions, or influence, from a soul at a distance? |
39279 | And those inverted dictations? |
39279 | And was not the little centre- table, in its climbings acting under the physical and pyschical influences of the medium? |
39279 | And( to take a simple instance), without departing from our common and normal condition of life, how is it that we raise our arm? |
39279 | And, in that case, shall I get what I have been promised?" |
39279 | And, in truth, why should not his mind as well as his fluidic force be haled out of his body and be exhausted in external work? |
39279 | And, likewise, in the experience which Wallace has just cited, were not the dictated names latent in the brain of the questioner? |
39279 | And, when the sombre curtains of night are let fall from the sky, can you tell whether you will see the dawn of another morn?" |
39279 | Another person asked,"What is faith?" |
39279 | Are they actual apparitions of the dead? |
39279 | As to beings different from ourselves,--what may their nature be? |
39279 | At the foot of the staircase she says,"What did M. Richet say to you? |
39279 | At this moment the nurse entered and innocently asked,"Did you ring, sir?" |
39279 | But do we understand any better how a spirit can have hands? |
39279 | But how can she do this when she is all the while seated tranquilly in her chair? |
39279 | But how could a being without acoustic nerve and without a tympanum hear? |
39279 | But how could the will, conscious or unconscious, lift a piece of furniture of that weight? |
39279 | But how? |
39279 | But if the mind of the medium may liberate itself and appear in an extra- normal state, why might it not be this mind which acts? |
39279 | But is it sufficient to explain all the observed phenomena? |
39279 | But the others, the unconscious souls, are they more advanced the day after death than the day before? |
39279 | But what is it that takes place within them? |
39279 | But what is matter? |
39279 | But what is the essential nature of gravitation? |
39279 | But why so many oddities and incoherences? |
39279 | But why so many puzzling incoherences and solecisms? |
39279 | But why? |
39279 | But, as it stands, it is necessary to stretch it considerably to make it explain the rappings( for who raps? |
39279 | Can the observations be confirmed and justified by assuming the mind of the living merely as the active agents? |
39279 | Can we explain the observed phenomena, or at least any portion of it? |
39279 | Can we not possess at once the humility which becomes the weak and the dignity which becomes the strong? |
39279 | Collective hallucination? |
39279 | Could not Eusapia''s departure be put off? |
39279 | Could you give us a proof of identity to show us that you are really the daughter of Victor Hugo, the wife of Charles Vacquerie? |
39279 | D----?" |
39279 | Did the beard really exist, or was it only a case of tactual and visual sensations? |
39279 | Did this boy( he says)_ will_ what took place, as the theory of M. de Gasparin would require us to admit? |
39279 | Do latent faculties of the human organism suffice to explain these intentional actions? |
39279 | Do they belong to beings like ourselves? |
39279 | Do we not find in the different ancient literatures, demons, angels, gnomes, goblins, sprites, spectres, elementals, etc? |
39279 | Do we not have several distinct personalities in our dreams? |
39279 | Do you not agree that the same executive power can give to the fluid the directions it gives to the muscles? |
39279 | Do you remember the place where you died?" |
39279 | Do you remember the year of your death?" |
39279 | Does a poet always write verses of equal worth? |
39279 | Does the will act directly upon the nerves? |
39279 | Does this characteristic defect prove that hysteria does not exist? |
39279 | Does this fact prove that the soul of the father of the experimenter actually performed the act with his hand? |
39279 | Does this preparation consist in a modification that takes place in the operator, or in the inert body on which he acts, or in both? |
39279 | Does this remarkable fact prove with certainty the action of a spirit other than that of the medium? |
39279 | E----?" |
39279 | Eusapia cries,"What is this that is passing over me?" |
39279 | For in what does the attraction of the earth consist? |
39279 | Has my memory played me false?" |
39279 | Has space only three dimensions? |
39279 | Have the writing mediums given any more convincing proofs of it than these? |
39279 | Have you nothing more refined than this to say to us?" |
39279 | How can this double, this fluidic body have the consistency of flesh and of muscles? |
39279 | How can this thing be? |
39279 | How can we help admitting, after the reading of this new official report, the following things? |
39279 | How could it make a good man out of a bad one? |
39279 | How could it make a shining light out of an intellectual nobody? |
39279 | How does it act? |
39279 | How explain this tangle of contradictions? |
39279 | How is it that a particle of iron grips so firmly to the loadstone when brought near it? |
39279 | How is it that a stick of sealing- wax or a lamp- chimney, when rubbed, attracts bits of paper or elder pith? |
39279 | How is it that the thunderbolt strips the clothes from a man or a woman with its characteristic nonchalance? |
39279 | How many legs and arms has she? |
39279 | How many times do apparitions, or manifestations occur? |
39279 | How old were you when you died?" |
39279 | How shall we name the mystery? |
39279 | How then can it enter into relation with our senses? |
39279 | How? |
39279 | I repeat it again, the muscles have not changed; then why this sudden incapacity? |
39279 | I said aloud:"Am I to show how the alarm is operated?" |
39279 | I said to the table, which had been put in movement by the little manoeuvre ordinarily used,"Does a spirit desire to communicate?" |
39279 | I then ask the following questions:"Is it you, John, who came into our sleeping chamber last night?" |
39279 | I therefore said to this intelligence,"Can you see the contents of this room?" |
39279 | If they could dynamically appear, would they not act somewhat in this way? |
39279 | If this were so, why did not muscular action lift the free leg as well as those fastened tight to the table? |
39279 | If we admit the survival of individual souls, what becomes of these souls? |
39279 | In fine what are we all seeking? |
39279 | In five hundred years, in a thousand years, in two thousand years, what will these sciences of ours be? |
39279 | In making my request, had I overstepped the limits of its powers? |
39279 | In other words, will the_ animistic_ hypothesis suffice to solve the problem and to do away with the_ Spiritualistic_ hypothesis? |
39279 | Is a man of genius always a man of genius? |
39279 | Is it a doubling of her personality? |
39279 | Is it a melange or combination of fluids? |
39279 | Is it an auto- suggestion of hers or of the dynamic ensemble of the experimenters that creates a special force? |
39279 | Is it an unheard- of thing that we transmit movement to matter that is outside of ourselves? |
39279 | Is it another kind of invisible beings? |
39279 | Is it not due to an intuitive perception of the presence of these invisible personages, or forces, against which they are helpless? |
39279 | Is it not the same, moreover, in assemblies, large or small, in conferences, in salons, etc.? |
39279 | Is it sufficient to entirely satisfy us? |
39279 | Is it the condensation of a psychic_ milieu_ in the midst of which we live? |
39279 | Is it the intelligence of the medium, of any of the other persons in the room, or is it an exterior intelligence? |
39279 | Is it the medium who herself acts, in an unconscious manner, by means of an invisible force emanating from her? |
39279 | Is it within us or outside of us? |
39279 | Is it worth while at the present time to combat such a theory? |
39279 | Is the composer of music master of his inspiration? |
39279 | Is there not enough of the unknown in these mysterious phenomena? |
39279 | Is this a mental transmission? |
39279 | Is this thought simply that of the medium, of the chief experimenter, or the resultant of the thoughts of all the sitters united? |
39279 | It is a hand, it is fingers, which have just pressed upon me so; but whose? |
39279 | Let us call it, if you please,"telekinetsis"; but does that get us any farther along? |
39279 | M----?" |
39279 | May I hope that the reader will have got a clear idea in his mind of the experiments and observations set forth in the previous pages of this work? |
39279 | May it not be possible that, in exerting ourselves, we give rise to a detachment of forces which acts exteriorly to our body? |
39279 | Might it not be a_ double_ of the medium, a product of her psychic force? |
39279 | Might it not be that the influence of the experimenters seated around the table puts in special movement the molecules of the wood? |
39279 | Might not a molecular movement counterbalance the effect of gravity? |
39279 | Movement of what? |
39279 | Movements without contact._--Question:"Would the table now be moved without contact?" |
39279 | Must he then admit an unknown disturbing force? |
39279 | Must one have faith? |
39279 | Nevertheless--? |
39279 | Now are these forces spirits? |
39279 | Now in what way is it possible for the contact of a light dress- stuff with the lower extremity of the foot of a table to assist in the levitation? |
39279 | Of course, I allowed my arm to remain passive, and here is what I read:"You wish to know what our occupations are? |
39279 | Or does there exist, around and about us, an intelligent medium or atmosphere, a kind of spiritual cosmos? |
39279 | Or, finally, is it possible that the spirits of the dead may survive, and wander to and fro, and hold communication with us? |
39279 | Perhaps our conscious or sub- conscious thoughts spoke in them? |
39279 | Persons condemned to death, in consequence of judicial errors, and executed, should they not return to protest their innocence? |
39279 | Question--"Can you see the book which I have just been looking at?" |
39279 | S----?" |
39279 | Some one asked,"Why have you dictated thus?" |
39279 | Souls of the dead? |
39279 | Still, after all, who can trace the limits of science? |
39279 | Still, does that constitute proof of an independent spirit? |
39279 | That is the fact: what is the best hypothesis to explain it? |
39279 | The cause remaining identically the same, whence comes it that the effect varies to such a degree? |
39279 | The question arises, Whence come these noises? |
39279 | The question at present resolves itself into this: Does this dynamism belong wholly to the experimenters? |
39279 | The question is, Do these facts exist, and do they enter into the category of known physical forces? |
39279 | The table dictated as follows:[12]"When the shining sun scatters the stars, know ye, O mortal men, whether ye will see the evening of that day? |
39279 | The victims of''93, should they not have returned to disturb the sleep of the conquerors? |
39279 | Then why might not other radiations emanate from our hands and from our whole being? |
39279 | This hand opens and closes three times, sufficiently long to permit me to say:"Whose hand is this?--yours, Monsieur Mangin?" |
39279 | This last request of hers was as follows:"What has become of the soul of my father?" |
39279 | W----?" |
39279 | Was I going to be the cause of all the well- proved phenomena of which we have had testimony losing the half of their value? |
39279 | Was it not an expression of the collective thought of the company? |
39279 | Was it not imperative to prove to our opponents that they have not even the pretext of"a scientific impossibility"? |
39279 | Was this apparition what it claimed to be? |
39279 | We think: what is thought? |
39279 | We walk: what is that organic act? |
39279 | Were we going to have the inevitable indisposition of the rare tenor, on the day when he was to be heard on the stage? |
39279 | What do you think of that? |
39279 | What has become of it? |
39279 | What have we seen? |
39279 | What is it in the bullet that kills? |
39279 | What is the absolute action of the soul or mind? |
39279 | What is the brain? |
39279 | What is the human body? |
39279 | What is the intelligent force that directs this fluidic body and makes it act in such or such a way? |
39279 | What is the mediator between mind and muscle? |
39279 | What is this being? |
39279 | What is this environment? |
39279 | What is this intelligence? |
39279 | What light will the study of these still unexplained forces shed upon the origin of the soul and upon the conditions of its survival? |
39279 | What shall be done to remove their noble and pharisaical indolence? |
39279 | What sustains the earth in space? |
39279 | What was science a hundred years ago, two hundred years, three hundred? |
39279 | What were you speaking of?" |
39279 | What, then, sustains the knife, annihilates its weight? |
39279 | When illusions, auto- suggestions, hallucinations, are eliminated, what remains? |
39279 | Where are they? |
39279 | Where did the puff of wind come from? |
39279 | Whether I have reached absolute conviction as to the existence of one or of several_ spirits_? |
39279 | Who is there so bold as to predict whither the scientific study of the new psychology will lead, and what the results will be? |
39279 | Who knows whether my friends and I, who laugh at Spiritualism, are not in error, just as hypnotized persons are? |
39279 | Who makes them? |
39279 | Who of us is always master of his impressions and of his faculties? |
39279 | Who or what adjusted this elastic spring? |
39279 | Who or what wound up this watch once for all? |
39279 | Who will say then, that there are not around us invisible beings? |
39279 | Why amplify? |
39279 | Why choose a table? |
39279 | Why could it not sound the alarm of this watch? |
39279 | Why do not children whose death is lamented by their parents ever come to console them? |
39279 | Why do our dearest attachments seem to disappear forever? |
39279 | Why do we wish to explain these phenomena at all hazards? |
39279 | Why does not our involuntary impulse always make the table turn? |
39279 | Why does the medium so often try to release her hand? |
39279 | Why seek to press on so eagerly and prematurely into regions to which our poor powers can not yet attain? |
39279 | Why should death bestow upon them any perfection? |
39279 | Why should it make a genius out of an imbecile? |
39279 | Why should it turn an ignoramus into a wise man? |
39279 | Why should not our"fraud"always procure such a triumph? |
39279 | Why should the souls of the dead amuse themselves in this way? |
39279 | Why this dark cabinet? |
39279 | Why, as a general thing, do we only succeed in effecting that which is mechanically impossible? |
39279 | Will you allow one of us to put a hand_ upon_ yours, without touching the table?" |
39279 | Would it not be reasonable to suppose that persons put to death in such a way that violence was not suspected would return to accuse the assassins? |
39279 | Would there be anything impossible in this? |
39279 | X., the medium? |
39279 | Yes, in a hundred thousand years, what will human intelligence be? |
39279 | Z? |
39279 | [ 29] To what cause may we attribute the levitation of the table? |
39279 | [ 39] Why was an astronomer chosen to give an account of the experiments at Genoa? |
39279 | [ 43] Who of us can at will put himself into such and such a physical condition and such and such a moral state? |
39279 | [ 4] Now how are these levitations and movements produced? |
39279 | [ 89] What is it that is active in us in telepathic phenomena? |
39279 | [ 94] But why are there manifestations the result of the grouping of five or six persons around the table? |
39279 | _ Reflection, reflex action?_ That is perhaps the true expression. |
39279 | and those in which we are obliged to skip every other letter? |
39279 | is not_ doubt_ the most_ certain_ result of mediumistic experiments?) |
39279 | or the ability to know, two days in advance, of the death of a person about whom one was not thinking at all? |
39279 | why are you not present with us? |
22593 | ''Did you recognize the spirit?'' 22593 ''Does any one recognize this"party"?'' |
22593 | ''How many bars are in it?'' 22593 ''Who are you?'' |
22593 | ''Who are you?'' 22593 A male psychic? |
22593 | Absorbing business, is n''t it? |
22593 | After she passed, my friend opened her eyes as before, clearly, smilingly, and said,''Have you had enough?'' 22593 After that superb test, why did n''t he frankly say the discarnate had been proved?" |
22593 | Am I right? |
22593 | And how about your own subconscious self? 22593 And not in me? |
22593 | And this was done? |
22593 | Are n''t there any fixed rules to the game? |
22593 | Are n''t we sitting right? |
22593 | Are there other spirits present? |
22593 | Are there other''spirits''here? |
22593 | Are you present,''Wilbur''? |
22593 | Are you satisfied with the conditions? |
22593 | Are you sure the writing was there as she drew the slate out? |
22593 | Are_ you_ the only one competent to study these facts? |
22593 | As a test? |
22593 | Because he is a sceptic? |
22593 | But how will he account for the difference in size between Eusapia''s hands and the_ large black hand_ that she saw and felt? |
22593 | But were they? 22593 But what about the voices?" |
22593 | But where does all this lead to if not to spiritualism? |
22593 | But who are you? |
22593 | But your mind is perfectly normal? |
22593 | Ca n''t you speak? |
22593 | Ca n''t you tell us about it more particularly? |
22593 | Ca n''t you write? |
22593 | Can it be that the good old theory of the permanence of matter is a gross and childish thing? 22593 Can you deceive''them''?" |
22593 | Candidly, Garland, what is your own belief? |
22593 | Could you see this hand? |
22593 | Did he get the records? |
22593 | Did he manufacture a double out of you? |
22593 | Did it succeed? |
22593 | Did n''t Crookes afterward repudiate that early report? |
22593 | Did she look like the medium? |
22593 | Did some one blow on my hands? 22593 Did the medium look at the music?" |
22593 | Did the writing appear to be supernormal? |
22593 | Did you accept his invitation? |
22593 | Did you mean you did n''t want Mrs. Fowler unaccounted for? |
22593 | Do n''t you believe in them? |
22593 | Do they speak to you directly? |
22593 | Do you always have that sensation? |
22593 | Do you believe in the guides? |
22593 | Do you ever have any perception of a physical connection between yourself and the sitters? |
22593 | Do you feel any motion in your thread, Fowler? |
22593 | Do you feel faint? |
22593 | Do you intend to convey that they considered the medium dishonest? |
22593 | Do you mean that the man and the ghost were united in some way? |
22593 | Do you mean that they did this to punish you for your peeping? |
22593 | Do you mean that you will believe in spirits? |
22593 | Do you mean they sound like actual people? |
22593 | Do you mean to say spirits speak through that horn? |
22593 | Do you mean to say that this''Katie King''phantom actually_ talked_ with the people in the room? 22593 Does he find this sandwiching of the sexes helpful?" |
22593 | Does he not say that, in spite of all his proof, he will not even hazard an affirmation of the phenomena? |
22593 | Does this theory cover the whispering personalities we heard? 22593 Essentials such as what?" |
22593 | Even in the''Katie King''episode? |
22593 | Fowler,I said,"are you controlling your wife''s hands?" |
22593 | Garland, will you purvey another psychic and conduct the pursuit? |
22593 | Has she been in the business long? |
22593 | Has that ever been done? |
22593 | Have you ever had any convincing evidence of this psychic force-- such as movement of objects without contact? |
22593 | Have you ever seen it done? |
22593 | Have you ever seen these forces at work? |
22593 | Have you ever witnessed any materializations? |
22593 | Have you tried to secure more of the music? |
22593 | How could Dolly have known that he held his pen in just that way? 22593 How do we go at it?" |
22593 | How do you account for a thing of that sort? |
22593 | How do you account for it, Miller? |
22593 | How do you account for it? 22593 How do you feel?" |
22593 | How does she do it? |
22593 | How does the scientific gentleman explain it? |
22593 | How was she dressed? |
22593 | How? 22593 I gently asked:''Who are you? |
22593 | I thought from what you had said that these''dark shows''were of no value? |
22593 | If you do not believe in tacks, will you believe in the touch of your fingers? |
22593 | Is anybody present? |
22593 | Is it the bishop? |
22593 | Is n''t it incredible? 22593 Is n''t the latest word of science to the effect that matter like the human body is only a temporary condition of force?" |
22593 | Is she a psychic? |
22593 | Is she married? |
22593 | Is the house ready for the question? |
22593 | Is the psychic speaking to us,he asked,"or are these voices independent of her?" |
22593 | Is there anything sacred in error? 22593 It is the clay,"I said, quickly;"will you make the impression of a face?" |
22593 | Just who is Bottazzi? |
22593 | May I come forward? |
22593 | Mrs. Smiley was about that age, was n''t she? |
22593 | Must we keep still? |
22593 | Now will some one sing''Annie Laurie,''or any other sweet, low song? 22593 Now, just to show you that the psychic is not doing this, ca n''t you hold up a book between me and the light? |
22593 | Now, which of us did that? |
22593 | Oh, come now, you do n''t expect us to believe a miracle like that, even on your serious statement? |
22593 | Ross laughed, and the''influence,''thrusting her face close to his, blurted out, menacingly:''Do n''t know me, hey? 22593 Sands?" |
22593 | Shall I change with Miller? |
22593 | Shall I go now? |
22593 | Suppose it''s all the work of an''astral''who ca n''t abide the light? |
22593 | Suppose you had been able to find that musical fragment, would it have converted you? |
22593 | Tell us more about yourself,''Wilbur''? |
22593 | That is good talk,said Miller in reply,"but the question is, Does he really experiment in that condition of mind? |
22593 | That would seem to prove a sort of universal mind reservoir, would n''t it? |
22593 | The first requisite is a small table--"Why a table? |
22593 | The question with me is not, Do these forms exist? 22593 The word means feeling at a distance, does it not, professor?" |
22593 | Then why go on? 22593 Was this the climax of his series? |
22593 | We have heard of Lombroso, but who is Paladino? |
22593 | Well, Garland, what do you intend to do with the facts obtained this afternoon? 22593 Well, how will you explain this performance? |
22593 | Well, now,said Cameron,"the practical question is this: are we to go on with our investigation?" |
22593 | Well, what do you suggest as the proper method for the society? |
22593 | Well, what luck? |
22593 | Were not the notions of Galileo and Darwin also subverting? |
22593 | Were there three doctors present? |
22593 | Were you conscious of groaning and gasping? |
22593 | What I would like to know at this point,Harris quickly interposed,"is this: were the fingermarks lined like Bottazzi''s or like the medium''s?" |
22593 | What about it? 22593 What about that, Miller?" |
22593 | What about the other messages? 22593 What about the process?" |
22593 | What are you reading from? |
22593 | What are you saying? 22593 What did Alexander''s family think of the music?" |
22593 | What did it look like? |
22593 | What do you do with that? |
22593 | What do you know about this learned doctor? |
22593 | What do you mean by speaking? |
22593 | What do you mean by that? |
22593 | What do you mean by''physiological determinism''? |
22593 | What do you mean by''the playing of a closed piano''? |
22593 | What do you wish to imply? |
22593 | What does he mean? 22593 What does she do?" |
22593 | What happened to you? |
22593 | What happened? 22593 What happened?" |
22593 | What have you been doing to me? |
22593 | What is her''phase,''as you call it? |
22593 | What is she about now? |
22593 | What is she talking about? |
22593 | What is telepathy, then? |
22593 | What is the matter? |
22593 | What is your reason for that? |
22593 | What was Blake''s conclusion? 22593 What was that work?" |
22593 | What was the psychic doing all this time? |
22593 | What was the''Katie King''experience? |
22593 | What were the conditions? 22593 What''s the matter, Dolly?" |
22593 | What_ is_ a real hand? |
22593 | Where is the medium? |
22593 | Where is the pad? 22593 Where was Paladino meanwhile?" |
22593 | Who are you? 22593 Who are you?" |
22593 | Who is Maxwell? |
22593 | Who is it? |
22593 | Who is she? |
22593 | Who''s doing that? 22593 Why are you doing this?" |
22593 | Why attempt to reduce her manifestations to natural magic? 22593 Why did n''t these wonders take place in our presence?" |
22593 | Why did n''t you bring her to dinner? |
22593 | Why disturb her belief in the spirit world? |
22593 | Why illusory? |
22593 | Why not accuse the arch- conspirator of us all, our director? |
22593 | Why not? 22593 Why should you and Brierly be so favored?" |
22593 | Why? |
22593 | Why? |
22593 | Why? |
22593 | Why? |
22593 | Will you be able to do something more for us? |
22593 | Will you tell me how that final movement was made? 22593 Wo n''t you tell me who you were on the earth- plane?" |
22593 | Wo n''t you tell us all about it? |
22593 | Would you have us accept the word of any one man when that word contradicts the experience of all mankind? |
22593 | Would''they''bat me if I were to peek? |
22593 | You admit being a prestidigitator? |
22593 | You are sure the piano was closed? |
22593 | You believe''they''are spirits? |
22593 | You did n''t see anything like that, did you? |
22593 | You had that experience, did you not? |
22593 | You mean, of course, that some of these highly cultured ladies would develop hysteria? |
22593 | You must be very tired, poor thing? |
22593 | You sometimes seem to go far away, do you not? |
22593 | You were pretty well convinced that night in your study, were n''t you? |
22593 | _ All right._"What are you going to do for us to- night? 22593 _ I was a soldier._""In the Civil War?" |
22593 | _ I was invalided home to Jefferson City, and passed out there._"How do you happen to be''guide''to this little woman? |
22593 | _ I''m doing it._"How can you see? |
22593 | _ Wilbur Thompson._"Oh, it is you, is it? 22593 _ Yes._""On which side?" |
22593 | _ Yes; many._"Ca n''t''they''write their names on the pad? |
22593 | ''"[ 2]"I wonder why the spirits are always clothed in that luminous gauze?" |
22593 | ''Are you controlling the psychic''s hand?'' |
22593 | ''As many as sixty?'' |
22593 | ''But the message concerning your mother can be tested, can it not?'' |
22593 | ''Ca n''t you keep time while I whistle?'' |
22593 | ''Can a man lift himself by his boot- straps?'' |
22593 | ''Can the subconscious self act in several places at once?'' |
22593 | ''Can you tell me the places?'' |
22593 | ''Do you know what you''ve said?'' |
22593 | ''Forty?'' |
22593 | ''How many persons were there?'' |
22593 | ''How, then, can we consider it to be a spirit hand-- an immaterial hand-- when a wire- netting can stop it?'' |
22593 | ''Oh, where am I?'' |
22593 | ''Presently she asked:"What is that round object? |
22593 | ''Shall I publish it?'' |
22593 | ''To whom does this hand belong?'' |
22593 | ''What are you all doing here? |
22593 | ''What do you want done with this fragment,"Isinghere"?'' |
22593 | ''What do you want of me?'' |
22593 | ''Why do you wilfully blind your eyes? |
22593 | ''Wilbur,''can you put the cone back on the table?" |
22593 | A light, fumbling noise followed, and I called out:"Is every hand in the circle accounted for?" |
22593 | A moment later she opened her eyes, and, smiling rather wanly, asked of me:"Did anything happen?" |
22593 | A.''?" |
22593 | Accepting this law as proved by our illustrious fellow- experimenters abroad, are you ready to try again along the lines they have marked out?" |
22593 | Aksakof told him all he needed to do was to go round the corner, did n''t he?" |
22593 | Almost immediately faint raps came upon the table, and I asked:"Are you there,''Mitchell''?" |
22593 | Am I right, Miller?" |
22593 | And Mrs. Quigg, much shaken, called out:"Frank Howard, are you doing this?" |
22593 | Another little colloquy: Editor:"Shall I draw the bar where it belongs?" |
22593 | Are we not forced to conclude that the table was moved by some supernormal expenditure of force? |
22593 | Are we sitting right?" |
22593 | Are we sitting right?" |
22593 | Are you addressing me?" |
22593 | Are you conscious of being in the upper part of the room, for instance, and do you see your body below you?'' |
22593 | Are you not holding one hand and Miss Brush the other? |
22593 | Are you still with us,''Wilbur''?" |
22593 | Are you still with us,''Wilbur''?" |
22593 | Are you sure of Blake?" |
22593 | As I paused, Harris said:"Was all that in his report to the Royal Society?" |
22593 | At last I asked,"Has any one here lost a little child?" |
22593 | At length she recovered her voice and asked,''Are you speaking to me?'' |
22593 | At the end of the song I asked, matter- of- factly:"Are the conditions right? |
22593 | But is n''t that a staggering hypothesis? |
22593 | Ca n''t you do something decisive at this moment?" |
22593 | Ca n''t you pluck the bass strings?'' |
22593 | Ca n''t you prove that she is independent of your voice? |
22593 | Ca n''t you see how necessary it is that we should proceed with her full consent? |
22593 | Ca n''t you tell us your name?'' |
22593 | Can you bring that to me,''Wilbur''?" |
22593 | Can you do that for me?" |
22593 | Can you imagine any reasonable person believing such things?" |
22593 | Can you raise the table?" |
22593 | Can you tell me who they were?'' |
22593 | Can you tell us,''Wilbur''?" |
22593 | Composer:"_ No._"Editor:"There?" |
22593 | Composer:"_ Yes, if you please._"Editor:"Here?" |
22593 | Composer:"_ Yes._"Editor:"Is the G- sharp, then, to be regarded as a suspension?" |
22593 | Could any trickster perform in the dark with such precision and gentleness? |
22593 | Did Bottazzi get these things done?" |
22593 | Did anything happen?" |
22593 | Did he put the same value upon it all that you did?" |
22593 | Did she get the books with her feet? |
22593 | Do the dead tell tales, after all? |
22593 | Do you object?" |
22593 | Does Sir William Crookes say that?" |
22593 | Does he mean that Eusapia performed all these movements with her''astral hands''?" |
22593 | Does it not seem to you a case of the''psychic force,''such as Crookes and Richet describe?" |
22593 | Does she perform for a living? |
22593 | Dolly, what have you been doing?" |
22593 | Finally I asked:"Are you still with us,''Wilbur''?" |
22593 | Fowler struck in:"But what will you do with materializations such as Dr. Richet studied at the Villa Carmen in Algiers? |
22593 | Garland?" |
22593 | Garland?" |
22593 | Have I been asleep?" |
22593 | Have they all been on the physical plane?" |
22593 | Have you had other messages written in that wonderful way?" |
22593 | Here I interposed:"The only question that concerns me at this stage is: Does the table tip and the brush really fly? |
22593 | How about it, Garland?" |
22593 | How about it, Miller?" |
22593 | How about the books? |
22593 | How about the broad hand which I saw? |
22593 | How about the candy- box which was moved from a point seven feet away? |
22593 | How can a thought in the brain of man contract a set of muscles and lift a cannon- ball? |
22593 | How can letters within closed slates be formed so beautifully and so precisely without some form of seeing?" |
22593 | How can she possibly reach and handle that cone?" |
22593 | How could it be correct otherwise?_"Another example. |
22593 | How could she slip from her bonds? |
22593 | How did you happen to get into this shadow world?" |
22593 | How do you account for that, Miller?" |
22593 | How do you account for the writing? |
22593 | How do you feel?" |
22593 | How do you feel?" |
22593 | How does she handle the cone? |
22593 | How does she write on the pads on the table, and how does she whisk them away? |
22593 | How else could the cone be handled with such precision as was shown at your house, Miller? |
22593 | I am inclined to think they are produced by some force within ourselves--''""Just what does he mean by that?" |
22593 | I asked:"Who are you? |
22593 | I glanced about the table at my silent listeners, and added:"Could anything be more dramatic than this sad farewell? |
22593 | I meant to take it away, but did I? |
22593 | I met him twice._''""''Can you tell me where?'' |
22593 | I say facts, for I am opposed to the theory._''""Did Lombroso say that?" |
22593 | I then asked:"''Wilbur,''do you want me to change with Fowler and control Mrs. Fowler''s hands?" |
22593 | I was a brigadier- general._""Where were you killed?" |
22593 | I was so badly off mentally that I do n''t know whether I did or not._''Whereupon Blake said:''Do you mean Schumann the publisher?'' |
22593 | I''m like the old man''s chickens( you''ve heard the story? |
22593 | If it were a mere matter of deception, would there not be thousands at the trade? |
22593 | In pursuit of this idea, I then asked:''Are you conscious of your body which you have left behind? |
22593 | Is every hand accounted for?" |
22593 | Is it Mrs. R., of Vermont?" |
22593 | Is it not rather suggestive that the number of practising mediums does not materially increase? |
22593 | Is it something analogous to the pteropod of an amoeba, which projects itself from the body, then retreats into it only to reappear in another place? |
22593 | Is it the hand of a monstrous long arm which liberates itself from the medium''s body, then dissolves, to afterward"materialize"afresh? |
22593 | Is she nice? |
22593 | Is that what you mean?" |
22593 | Is this just? |
22593 | Is this_ all_ he is willing to affirm?" |
22593 | Is''Wilbur''your surname?" |
22593 | May I do so?" |
22593 | Miller was silent for a moment, then asked:"You''re sure it was done after you took the slates in hand?" |
22593 | Miller, will you watch me?" |
22593 | Miller?" |
22593 | Mitchell would like to have you tie the threads to the legs of the table._""Are you''Maud?''" |
22593 | Mrs. Quigg caught me up on this:"What do you mean by''traditions of mediumship''?" |
22593 | Mrs. Quigg sharply queried,"Whom are you talking to?" |
22593 | Nevertheless, how many"_ knowing_ people and_ savans_"have formed a judgment on phenomena after séances such as this one?''" |
22593 | Remember Geny? |
22593 | Remember the night on the door- step? |
22593 | Shall I try?" |
22593 | She brought books, shook the table, touched us-- How?" |
22593 | Smiley?" |
22593 | Smiley?" |
22593 | Smiley?" |
22593 | Smiley?" |
22593 | Smiley?" |
22593 | Suppose Flammarion is right? |
22593 | Suppose that the psychic can extend her arms beyond their normal proportions? |
22593 | Suppose the whisper were only a bit of clever ventriloquism, how did the psychic secure the information conveyed in this dialogue? |
22593 | Tap, tap, tap--"_Yes._""Are we sitting right?" |
22593 | The answer was but a sibilant sigh:"_ Yes._""Who are you?" |
22593 | The following colloquy ensued: Editor:"Does the piece begin with the tonic chord of A?" |
22593 | Then all turned to Miller as though to ask:"What do you think of that?" |
22593 | There was a loud outcry:"What do you mean? |
22593 | Thereupon I said:''Ca n''t you play a tune?'' |
22593 | Thus far to- night we have_ proved_ that Mrs. Smiley is not concerned with the drumming on the cone, have n''t we?" |
22593 | To sustain this contention, let me ask if you have ever read the account of Sir William Crookes''s experiments with psychic force?" |
22593 | Two or three times the whispering voice called,''_ Is Garland here?_''and once it asked:''_ What is Garland doing? |
22593 | Two or three times the whispering voice called,''_ Is Garland here?_''and once it asked:''_ What is Garland doing? |
22593 | Was it light?" |
22593 | Was the woman crushed?" |
22593 | We sat in silence for a few moments, and at last I asked:"Is any spirit present?" |
22593 | Were they all disappointing?" |
22593 | What about the tacks, the threads, the tapes that bound her? |
22593 | What about''Wilbur''and''Maudie''?" |
22593 | What are your sensations now?" |
22593 | What can you do for us to- night?" |
22593 | What did you do on the earth?" |
22593 | What do you want us to do-- announce ourselves converted?" |
22593 | What does he mean to infer?" |
22593 | What have you been about?" |
22593 | What is it?" |
22593 | What is your verdict, Mr. Cocksure Scientist?" |
22593 | What kind of a person are we to expect?" |
22593 | What then? |
22593 | What time is it?" |
22593 | What time is it?" |
22593 | What will you do with the photographs of the spectre of the helmeted soldier which he obtained under what he declares were test conditions?" |
22593 | What you going to do about it?'' |
22593 | When and where shall we meet?" |
22593 | When this had finished, I said,"Did you succeed?" |
22593 | Where does she live?" |
22593 | Where''s Jim?'' |
22593 | Which of us is doing this?" |
22593 | Who is she? |
22593 | Who is she? |
22593 | Who knows but the conclusions of Venzano and Morselli, of Bottazzi and Foà, have opened new vistas in human nature? |
22593 | Whose is the eye that directs this instrument? |
22593 | Why did n''t he handcuff her, or nail her down? |
22593 | Why doubt that which would comfort you?'' |
22593 | Why not admit the truth? |
22593 | Why not perform in the light?" |
22593 | Why not stop now and save ourselves the trouble of investigation?" |
22593 | Will I like her?" |
22593 | Will she be able to discharge a gold- leaf electroscope without touching it?" |
22593 | Will she be able to illuminate a screen treated with platino- cyanide of barium? |
22593 | Will the medium be able to impress a photographic plate? |
22593 | Will you be able to permit conditions more convincing?" |
22593 | Will you be one of them?" |
22593 | Will you do that,''Wilbur''?" |
22593 | Will you permit that?" |
22593 | Will you permit this test?" |
22593 | Wo n''t somebody help me? |
22593 | Would n''t our deserters be chagrined if we should now proceed to enjoy a really startling session?" |
22593 | Would that necessarily make the spiritist theory untenable? |
22593 | You are not doing this, Miller?" |
22593 | You believe in her?" |
22593 | You do not stand out against wireless telegraphy or the Röntgen ray?" |
22593 | You have had other sittings with her, have n''t you? |
22593 | _ Tap, tap, tap._"Are you moving the table?" |
22593 | _ Tap, tap, tap._"To get it out of reach of the psychic?" |
22593 | at times represented an opposing will?" |
22593 | but, What produces them? |
22593 | had_ spoken_ these things to you face to face-- what then?" |
22593 | he asked--''this hand, a half a yard away from the medium''s head, seen while her visible hands are rigorously controlled by her two neighbors? |
22593 | queried the painter;"who is Sands?" |
22593 | questioned Fowler--"that he disputed certain passages with Blake, and that he finally carried his point in opposition to every mind in the circle?" |
22593 | replied; and I said:''And you want the manuscript recalled from Schumann and given to Smart?'' |
22593 | she cried out, and Mrs. Cameron stared at her in blank dismay as she asked,"Are you talking to me?" |
22593 | turned toward me and asked, with anxious haste:''_ Where''s Garland?_''''I am here,''I answered. |
36312 | ''Hath she brought the book to you( the accusing girls)?'' 36312 ''How can you say you know nothing, when you see these tormented and accuse you?'' |
36312 | ''Is this folly to see these so hurt?'' 36312 ''Of what sin?'' |
36312 | ''Sarah Good, do you not see now what you have done? 36312 ''Sarah Good, what evil spirit have you familiarity with?'' |
36312 | ''Well, sir, would you have me confess what I never knew?'' 36312 ''What did you think of the actions of others before your sisters came out? |
36312 | ''What do you say to this?'' 36312 ''What do you say; are you guilty?'' |
36312 | ''What do you think ails them?'' 36312 ''What have you done to these children?'' |
36312 | ''What_ creature_ do you employ, then?'' 36312 ''Why did you go away muttering from Mr. Parris''s house?'' |
36312 | ''Why, do you not think it is witchcraft?'' 36312 Can you not,"we asked,"find him through her?" |
36312 | How did you afflict folks? 36312 I do not hurt poor children? |
36312 | O, star- eyedFancy,"hast thou wandered there, To waft us back the message of"--_credulity_? |
36312 | Sarah Good being then asked, if that_ she_ did not hurt them, who did it? 36312 She_ pretended_ that the evil[?] |
36312 | TheWhy have you done it?" |
36312 | Were you to serve the devil ten years? 36312 What does she eat or drink?" |
36312 | Who is it then? |
36312 | Who made you a witch? 36312 Why did you say the magistrates''and ministers''eyes were blinded,"and"you would open them? |
36312 | Why did you say you would show us? 36312 Why make an alternative? |
36312 | _ Q._ At first beginning with them, what then appeared to you? 36312 _ Q._ But what did they say unto you? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did he ask you no more but the first time to serve him? 36312 _ Q._ Did you ever go with these women? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did you go with the company? 36312 _ Q._ Did you never practice witchcraft in your own country? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did you see them do it now while you are examining( being examined)? 36312 _ Q._ Do you never see something appear in some shape? |
36312 | _ Q._ Elizabeth Hubbard, who hurts you? 36312 _ Q._ How long since you began to pinch Mr. Parris''s children? |
36312 | _ Q._ Is that the same man that appeared before to you, that appeared last night and told you this? 36312 _ Q._ Susan Sheldon, who hurts you? |
36312 | _ Q._ Tell us true; how many women do you use to come when you ride abroad? 36312 _ Q._ What appearance, or how doth he appear when he hurts them?" |
36312 | _ Q._ What clothes doth the man appear unto you in? 36312 _ Q._ What did he say you must do more? |
36312 | _ Q._ What do you say to this you are charged with? 36312 _ Q._ What familiarity have you with the devil, or what is it that you converse withal? |
36312 | _ Q._ What hath Osburn got to go with her? 36312 _ Q._ What made you hold your arm when you were searched? |
36312 | _ Q._ What other creatures have you seen? 36312 _ Q._ What other likenesses besides a man hath appeared unto you? |
36312 | _ Q._ What? 36312 _ Q._ When did he say you must meet together? |
36312 | _ Q._ Who was that appeared to Hubbard as she was going from Proctor''s? 36312 _ Q._ With what shape, or what is_ he_ like that hurts them? |
36312 | _ Q._ Would they have had you hurt the children last night? 36312 _ Q._''What did it propound to you?'' |
36312 | _ Q._''What lying spirit is this? 36312 _ Q._''What lying spirit was it, then?'' |
36312 | _ Tituba, the Indian woman, examined March 1, 1692.__ Q._ Why do you hurt these poor children? |
36312 | ''Are you certain this is the woman?'' |
36312 | ''Are you not willing to tell the truth?'' |
36312 | ''Do you think they are bewitched?'' |
36312 | ''Doth this woman hurt you?'' |
36312 | ''Have you made no contract with the devil?'' |
36312 | ''Have you made no contract with the devil?'' |
36312 | ''How came they thus tormented?'' |
36312 | ''How comes your appearance just now to hurt these?'' |
36312 | ''How do I know?'' |
36312 | ''Then,''said I,''how can all these things be done by him?'' |
36312 | ''What God do you serve?'' |
36312 | ''What commandment is it?'' |
36312 | ''What do you laugh at?'' |
36312 | ''What is it you say when you go muttering away from persons''houses?'' |
36312 | ''What psalm?'' |
36312 | ''Who do you employ, then, to do it?'' |
36312 | ''Who do you employ, then?'' |
36312 | ''Who do you serve?'' |
36312 | ''Who do you think is their master?'' |
36312 | ''Who was it, then, that tormented the children?'' |
36312 | ''Why do you hurt these children?'' |
36312 | ''Why, who was it?'' |
36312 | 70),"Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is_ a devil_?" |
36312 | :"What does she eat or drink? |
36312 | A trifle, was that? |
36312 | And especially who"improved her tongue to express what was never in her mind"? |
36312 | And how was it with the others? |
36312 | And what is involved in that? |
36312 | And when was he first seen? |
36312 | And which boy did he see? |
36312 | And who was_ the black man_? |
36312 | And whose emotions mantled her face with smiles in the stern and frowning presence of"authority"? |
36312 | And why"_ greater_ cruelty"? |
36312 | And why? |
36312 | And why? |
36312 | Are expert tricksters accustomed to disown their own powers to astonish? |
36312 | Are the results of your course to be lamented? |
36312 | But is there probability either that he dictated any part of her testimony, or that she fabricated anything? |
36312 | But seemingly the court could not wait for an answer, because, in the same breath, it asked, What did your visitant tell you? |
36312 | But the magistrate seemingly doubted its truth or its sufficiency, for he next asked,--"_ Q._ Why have you done it? |
36312 | But the_ cui bono_, the what good? |
36312 | But what did her master require her to"stand to"? |
36312 | But what did she say by way of confessing or accusing? |
36312 | But which, among the human faculties, did that delusion spell- bind, stultify, and make sanguinary? |
36312 | But who was genuine author of playful proceedings at a time when the business was so grave and solemn? |
36312 | But why she? |
36312 | But why to Thomas Putnam''s? |
36312 | But with what eyes? |
36312 | By whom was it seen? |
36312 | Can any one doubt that she conceived herself to be speaking to the same being, though in dog form, that she had yielded to before in form like a man? |
36312 | Can reflection find her competent to all that was ascribed to her? |
36312 | Community called such matters witchcrafts, and why should not these children do the same? |
36312 | Confessed to what? |
36312 | Could Ann Foster''s gray- haired man have been Tituba''s white- haired visitant-- the originator and enactor of Salem witchcraft? |
36312 | Could firm, true men, holding then prevalent beliefs, have done less? |
36312 | Dadie thought I spoke, and said,''What''m?'' |
36312 | Did he believe that_ demons_ acted within her, held her back, and made her something like three times heavier than she normally was? |
36312 | Did he offer you any paper? |
36312 | Did he say you must write anything? |
36312 | Did he see, hear, and feel all that he testifies to? |
36312 | Did he tell you who they were? |
36312 | Did such observable effects occur as Mather described? |
36312 | Did supernal prescience select and post agents peculiarly fitted to perform the witchcraft tragedy? |
36312 | Did the historian himself who quoted those words and let them appear to be accurately descriptive of facts, believe that they were such? |
36312 | Did they, or did other agencies, produce the mysterious disorders which seemed to devil- dreading beholders like diabolical obsessions? |
36312 | Did you think it was witchcraft?'' |
36312 | Do such feats bespeak their origin in_ delirium tremens_? |
36312 | Do you get those cats, or other things, to do it for you? |
36312 | Does he believe that such things were actually performed either by or through her? |
36312 | Does he believe that such were the literal facts even in appearance? |
36312 | Does the hugeness which debars them from entering contracted domiciles to- day prove their existence to be but fabulous? |
36312 | Doth the devil tell you that he hurts them? |
36312 | Doth the devil tell you that he hurts them?" |
36312 | Elizabeth Knap''s visitant-- the one to whom she said,"What cheer, old man?" |
36312 | Especially do they ever spontaneously avow that the devil or any_ evil spirit_ is helping them? |
36312 | For who, in any community, would ever count one_ a saint_ who manifested such offensive qualities to any great extent as he ascribed to her? |
36312 | For,--"_ Q._ What did you say to him, then, after that? |
36312 | From whom came the things put forth through her which"she knew nothing of"? |
36312 | From whom came the tones, if not the words, of languages which this possessed girl had never learned? |
36312 | Had he met Tituba? |
36312 | Had it less sagacity than his own? |
36312 | Had she divulged her knowledge, what heed would have been given to the word of the ignorant slave? |
36312 | Had she made a_ covenant_ with the devil, or any devotee of his? |
36312 | Has he left record of a series of facts, or only of fictions which he set forth as facts? |
36312 | Has the Great Permitter of the many sufferings which war has engendered been"shockingly wicked"? |
36312 | Hath the devil ever deceived you and been false to you?'' |
36312 | He said,''Miss Perkins, can I go out and see who''s there?'' |
36312 | He was stating facts, which, in his apprehension, were harmless, and why should he not let them out? |
36312 | Her patients promiscuously? |
36312 | His only question was, did the thing occur? |
36312 | How can the occurrence of such facts be explained, or rather_ who_ produced them? |
36312 | How could he? |
36312 | How did the historian account for such-- for those seeming"more than natural"? |
36312 | How did you set your hand to it? |
36312 | How else can thought inhere?" |
36312 | How far have you complied with Satan whereby he takes this advantage of you?'' |
36312 | How far up, down, around, do natural forces and agents extend and operate? |
36312 | How much beneficence did one then need to perform before public sentiment, would reprobate its author? |
36312 | How much did this import? |
36312 | How old are you now? |
36312 | How_ know_ that she or her case was the then all- engrossing topic? |
36312 | How_ know_ that their manner was expressive of any particular topic of conversation? |
36312 | Hutchinson says,"The most remarkable occurrence in the colony in the year 1655[ 1656?] |
36312 | Hutchinson states that Mr. Dane himself"is_ tenderly_ touched in several of the examinations, which"( the tenderness?) |
36312 | I presently asked her, what letter? |
36312 | I said to him,''Can you say your lesson?'' |
36312 | If he resembled an Indian, is not the inference very fair that he was an Indian? |
36312 | If there be a fixed limit to nature''s domain, where is it? |
36312 | If we presume( and why may we not?) |
36312 | If_ entranced_, was the girl, then, a voluntary seer and speaker? |
36312 | Indeed, how can any other than perverted vision see harm in the girl''s filial compact? |
36312 | Indeed, who among men could possibly have taught or helped her to prophesy correctly, to hear the far distant, or to embody a spirit child? |
36312 | Is crabbed temper there? |
36312 | Is ignorance of, or is knowledge of, nature''s forces and inhabitants the greater blessing? |
36312 | Is it possible that the mind of man should be capable of such strong prejudices as that a suspicion of fraud should not immediately arise? |
36312 | Is she a witch or a cunning woman? |
36312 | Is slander there? |
36312 | Is that idea conveyed in calling her a successful practitioner? |
36312 | Is there only one kind of mental power throughout the whole animal kingdom, differing only in intensity and range of manifestation? |
36312 | Is this the woman?'' |
36312 | Little Sarah was asked,--"How long have you been a witch? |
36312 | May not natural endowments sometimes be ample qualification for admitting the evolvement through one''s form of very great marvels? |
36312 | Modern wisdom(?) |
36312 | Most seriously we ask whether forces which can be and have been measured by palpable scales, are"beyond the legitimate boundaries of human knowledge?" |
36312 | Mrs. Morse''s possession of their secret was so unaccountable that the husband in astonishment asked,"Is she a witch or a cunning woman?" |
36312 | My husband presently said, What? |
36312 | Now, then, there are some persons_ so constituted_ that they perceive these shadows(?) |
36312 | On that Wednesday night"Abigail first became ill.""_ Q._ Where was your master then? |
36312 | Or the second time? |
36312 | Perhaps he did; and yet on what rational grounds could he? |
36312 | She cried out to him,"What cheer, old man?" |
36312 | She had penetration enough to_ conjecture_"( why say_ conjecture_?) |
36312 | Should they be called outgrowths from"fraud and imposture,"as they were by another? |
36312 | Should they be left unadduced and unalluded to, as they were by one elaborate historian? |
36312 | The external or the internal one-- the boy material or the boy spiritual? |
36312 | The girl''s confession? |
36312 | The outer or the inner-- his material or his spiritual ones? |
36312 | The question was repeated thus:"_ Why_ did you never visit these afflicted persons?" |
36312 | The same question, partially, is up to- day-- viz., Can any but willing devotees to Satan be used in the processes of spirit manifestations? |
36312 | The_ confessions_(?) |
36312 | The_ only_ charge_ proved_? |
36312 | Then what did you answer him? |
36312 | Then why write? |
36312 | Therefore our fathers would with conscious propriety ask any one whom they supposed to be under"an evil hand,""Who hurts you?" |
36312 | This begs the primal question, viz.,_ Did_ he undertake to torment them? |
36312 | This weakness(?) |
36312 | To whom can they refer, if not to spirits of some grade? |
36312 | Was clear statement of what its senses had witnessed evidence of its credulity? |
36312 | Was he a faithful and true witness, or not? |
36312 | Was it causing iron to swim? |
36312 | Was it foolish in him to state the truth? |
36312 | Was it only her_ pretense_? |
36312 | Was it so? |
36312 | Was its belief in the testimony of its own senses a proof of its_ credulity_? |
36312 | Was she so generous as to give credit to another, and that other an"evil spirit,"for help which she did not receive? |
36312 | Was that a condition of things in which the younger two would join the elder in sly additions to the distress around them? |
36312 | Was that a_ deluded_ court, representative of a_ deluded_ people, which condemned Margaret Jones to"hang high on the gallows- tree"? |
36312 | Was that a_ playful_ moment? |
36312 | Was the former generation less truthful than his own? |
36312 | Was their perception of him nothing more than the product of the imagination of the witnesses? |
36312 | Was there any_ fraud_? |
36312 | Was there anywhere a prior institution of that kind? |
36312 | Were Braybrook''s statements true as to the main fact? |
36312 | Were all the declarations false? |
36312 | Were all those youthful females shockingly wicked? |
36312 | Were horses, vehicles, and drivers, or were even saddle- horses, regularly at the command of such girls for conveyance to and from such meetings? |
36312 | Were its senses less reliable? |
36312 | Were the external senses of a whole community so disordered that the character and dimensions of sensible acts were grossly misapprehended? |
36312 | Were these doings by Mather foolish and useless? |
36312 | What amount of success in alleviating the sufferings that flesh is heir to would invoke public vengeance? |
36312 | What beatings might she not well fear if she confessed to any dealings with invisible beings? |
36312 | What did he say you must do? |
36312 | What did he tell you?" |
36312 | What do you ride upon? |
36312 | What had you there? |
36312 | What harm have they done unto you? |
36312 | What if it was? |
36312 | What is fit treatment of such facts and testimony from such a source? |
36312 | What is_ he_ like? |
36312 | What miracle did he concede that the devil can work? |
36312 | What more common than for attendants to offer and urge upon a suffering and agonized person any stimulant or cordial at hand? |
36312 | What next? |
36312 | What persons would be summoned into court to testify concerning her when such was the charge? |
36312 | What qualities give better_ a priori_ promise of correct testimony than do sincerity and a sound understanding? |
36312 | What started, and extended, and intensified that tongue if it did wag? |
36312 | What then? |
36312 | What then? |
36312 | What then? |
36312 | What though all spectators failed to see the Indian? |
36312 | What though the agitation of Christendom brings its latent iniquities and impurities to the surface? |
36312 | What though the counterparts of publicans, sinners, and harlots float numerously into view? |
36312 | What unseen power? |
36312 | What was it like that got you to do it? |
36312 | What was the character of the Goodwin children themselves? |
36312 | What was their duty? |
36312 | What were the accusations against him? |
36312 | What were those feats? |
36312 | What would you have me do?'' |
36312 | What, therefore, must be done? |
36312 | What, therefore, was the historian''s necessity? |
36312 | What_ lies_ were or could be fabricated against such a woman, the nature of which the common sagacity of society there and then would not detect? |
36312 | What_ lies_ which the truthfulness of society there and then would not decline to repeat against her? |
36312 | When I ceased working upon my patient, her husband said,''Do you suppose you can affect_ me_ in the same way?'' |
36312 | When her master hath asked her( Tituba?) |
36312 | When she perceived and called out to some personage invisible to her companions, saying,"What cheer, old man?" |
36312 | Whence the excitement itself-- such excitement as could regard an accurate guess as necessarily the offspring of diabolical insight? |
36312 | Whence the impulse? |
36312 | Where are they? |
36312 | Where did they find him? |
36312 | Wherein lurks anything which indicates that the witnesses in this case stated anything that was not substantially true? |
36312 | Which is most dutiful to God and friendly to man? |
36312 | Which is most scientific? |
36312 | Which shall we do? |
36312 | Which? |
36312 | Which? |
36312 | Which? |
36312 | Which? |
36312 | Which? |
36312 | Who and what was he? |
36312 | Who but visible or audible spirits, proving themselves to be such, can give decisive response to that momentous question? |
36312 | Who first appeared to her? |
36312 | Who helped the little clergyman lift and hold the heavy gun? |
36312 | Who knows? |
36312 | Who knows? |
36312 | Who sees either mind, or the force by which an aching toe reports to the brain and excites the sympathy of the whole organism? |
36312 | Who sees electricity, magnetism, gravitation, attraction, cohesion, repulsion? |
36312 | Who was the prime mover? |
36312 | Who was"my Indian man"? |
36312 | Who, next to Powell, among those present at the manifestations, was most likely to have made a covenant with the Evil One? |
36312 | Why afraid of such result? |
36312 | Why call that a_ pretense_, and make her a liar? |
36312 | Why did any intelligent being, whether mortal or spirit, thus woefully invade and disturb the homes of able, honored, worthy Christian men? |
36312 | Why did n''t you take the words of your own witnesses as corroborative of the man''s statement? |
36312 | Why did the people of his time take his life? |
36312 | Why do you not tell us the truth? |
36312 | Why do you thus torment these poor children?'' |
36312 | Why not put some confidence in the words of this religiously educated girl? |
36312 | Why say_ pretended_? |
36312 | Why should they lead to, or rather why fix upon, the beloved and venerated Mrs. Nurse? |
36312 | Why was such a one an enterer of complaints against neighbors, whether high or low, good or bad? |
36312 | Why, said she, hadst not thee such a letter from such a man at such a time? |
36312 | Why? |
36312 | Why? |
36312 | With''eagerness of mind''she asked them,''Does she tell you what clothes I have on?'' |
36312 | Yes,_ what_ unseen power? |
36312 | Yes; who that baker whose cake raised the devil, and caused apparitions to become exceeding plenty? |
36312 | _ Ans._''What do I know? |
36312 | _ Ans._''Would you have me accuse myself?'' |
36312 | _ Beyond a doubt?_ Perhaps not in some minds. |
36312 | _ Mortal._"How do spirits materialize?" |
36312 | _ Q._ And what book did he bring, a great or little book? |
36312 | _ Q._ And what did he say to you when you made your mark? |
36312 | _ Q._ And when would he come then? |
36312 | _ Q._ But did he tell you the names of the other? |
36312 | _ Q._ But why did not you do so before? |
36312 | _ Q._ Can you look upon these and not knock them down? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did he get it out of your body? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did he not make you write your name? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did he show you in the book which was Osburn''s and which was Good''s mark? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did he tell you the names of them? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did he tell you where the nine lived? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did they do any hurt to you or threaten you? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did they write their names? |
36312 | _ Q._ Did you go into that room in your own person, and all the rest? |

36312 | her course of fraud and imposture? |
36312 | her frolic? |
36312 | or of acts called witchcraft of old? |
36312 | or was it such lifting of Margaret Rule as had been sworn to? |
36312 | see the devil?" |
37917 | A test? 37917 A tip?" |
37917 | Ah, that is it? |
37917 | Ah, you force me to say it, do you? 37917 Am I going to die?" |
37917 | Am I ill, Blessington? |
37917 | And Abracadabra, now? |
37917 | And are we to take your corpse back to England to- morrow? |
37917 | And did n''t you know that to take what is n''t yours is stealing? |
37917 | And does he do other things as well as he dances? |
37917 | And have n''t I? |
37917 | And if he asks? |
37917 | And is Archie there too? 37917 And is this Archie?" |
37917 | And it''s jolly for you, is n''t it, Blessington, having Archie here so long? |
37917 | And may I ask you one thing? 37917 And shall I be forgiven now I''ve told you?" |
37917 | And shall I enter all the invitation you accept in your engagement- book, Cousin Marion? |
37917 | And shall we have a talk this evening again before dinner? |
37917 | And she wo n''t hurt Blessington either? |
37917 | And those scribbles of Archie''s? |
37917 | And what does she do when she blows her nose? |
37917 | And what other news? |
37917 | And what''s the news? |
37917 | And who is that? |
37917 | And who was you visitor? |
37917 | And why have n''t I got a bone in my leg? 37917 And why is he so particularly here?" |
37917 | And you do n''t want me to take your ridiculous mother away? |
37917 | And you''ll be joining up too before long, wo n''t you? 37917 And you, Archie?" |
37917 | And you, Jessie? |
37917 | Any tea left? |
37917 | Archie, are n''t you going to wish me happiness? |
37917 | Archie, do you really believe that it is the spirit of Martin that makes you write? |
37917 | Archie, who has been telling you about Martin? |
37917 | Archie, why do you smoke before breakfast? |
37917 | Archie,she cried,"are_ you_ there? |
37917 | Are n''t I? |
37917 | Are n''t you being horribly unkind to me? |
37917 | Are n''t you going to work this morning? |
37917 | Are you in love with him? |
37917 | Are you quite certain? |
37917 | Are you tired, dear? |
37917 | Bradshaw? |
37917 | But did n''t you know it was n''t yours? |
37917 | But does Martin never write to you? |
37917 | But does n''t Sapum enter into girls, too? |
37917 | But he wo n''t keep you in London? |
37917 | But is n''t there any other Martin? |
37917 | But marriage? 37917 But may n''t I skate?" |
37917 | But may n''t I wear a flower from Tom, Dick, or Harry for that reason? 37917 But what are you going to do?" |
37917 | But what does it matter to him what we are like? |
37917 | But what play could we act? |
37917 | But you keep your opinion? |
37917 | But you wo n''t have a fit or anything, will you? |
37917 | But, my dear, how will Archie begin to know unless you tell him? |
37917 | But, wherever that is, may n''t we be together? 37917 But-- but sha n''t Archie come too?" |
37917 | Ca n''t you hear what I say? |
37917 | Certainly, but why beg my pardon? |
37917 | Crying? 37917 Did I say anything?" |
37917 | Did she love me or did n''t she? |
37917 | Did you put those coals on your mother''s hearthrug? |
37917 | Did you see him? |
37917 | Do n''t give me up, will you? |
37917 | Do n''t they have lots of funerals? |
37917 | Do n''t you know, when the two couples wander about? 37917 Do n''t you remember how you and Jeannie made up a story about them?" |
37917 | Do they not make it more difficult for you to tell him about Martin now? 37917 Do you like her better than Miss Helena?" |
37917 | Do you mean you''ve accepted him? |
37917 | Do you mean...? |
37917 | Do you mean...? |
37917 | Do you really want to know what I think, Archie? |
37917 | Do you remember what I told you about the messages I used to have from Martin when I was a child? |
37917 | Do you want a clock- work train? |
37917 | Do you want very much? |
37917 | Do you? 37917 Does that affect you?" |
37917 | Does that mean that you do n''t? |
37917 | Dual personality? |
37917 | Eh? 37917 From Helena or mother?" |
37917 | Get the balls out, will you? |
37917 | Hammering? |
37917 | Harry, will you open the door and see what it is? |
37917 | Has he been quite quiet? |
37917 | Have women got bones in their legs and not boys? 37917 Have you saved me again, Jessie?" |
37917 | Helena is married on the 10th of August, is n''t she? |
37917 | Helena, have I offended you? |
37917 | How are you madame Seiler? |
37917 | How are you, Archie? |
37917 | How do you think Jessie is? |
37917 | How many half- crowns is that? |
37917 | How''s the headache? |
37917 | I answer to my name, do n''t I? |
37917 | I did n''t dress,he said,"for where''s the use of dressing if you are going to undress again almost immediately?" |
37917 | I say, father,he said,"shall I tell her, or would she think it not quite...?" |
37917 | I''m nothing at all just now; I''m dead, but will you watch by the corpse? 37917 If I make an effort, will you make one, too?" |
37917 | If you tell me you are in love with him..."Do you think I should marry him if I was not? |
37917 | In this house? |
37917 | Including the Bradshaw? |
37917 | Is Miss Schwarz very ill? |
37917 | Is it Martin? |
37917 | Is it a joke? |
37917 | Is it another train? |
37917 | Is n''t it fun? 37917 Is that you, Archie?" |
37917 | Is the fish there still? |
37917 | Is there an answer, my lord? |
37917 | It is bed- time, is n''t it? |
37917 | It''ll get all right, wo n''t it? |
37917 | It''s ridiculous, is n''t it? 37917 Martin, are you here? |
37917 | Martin, are you here? |
37917 | May I come to the meeting, Miss Bampton? |
37917 | May I get down? |
37917 | May I help myself on the way? |
37917 | May I pick one? |
37917 | May I say''we''also? |
37917 | May n''t I come? 37917 My dear, have n''t you got further than that?" |
37917 | No? 37917 Not gone to bed yet?" |
37917 | Now shall I show you the test? 37917 Oh Archie, how do you know it was he?" |
37917 | Oh, Archie, are you going to talk to Martin? |
37917 | Oh, Blessington, is n''t it fun? |
37917 | Oh, Blessington,he said,"look at me, and they''re just as easy to manage as the old ones, and may I go to see Harry after breakfast and show him?" |
37917 | Oh, Helena, were we doing that all by ourselves? |
37917 | Oh, William, what''s happened? |
37917 | Oh, and may it have a cris-- a crisantepum? |
37917 | Oh, are n''t we behaving like idiots? |
37917 | Oh, er-- what? |
37917 | Oh, is it Abracadabra? |
37917 | Oh, mummy, may I go to the meeting? |
37917 | Oh, mummy, what_ is_ happening? |
37917 | Oh, ought girls to fall down and not boys? |
37917 | Oh, was Helena frightened? |
37917 | Oh, who is it? |
37917 | Or do you think that I ought to behave like William, and serve my country? |
37917 | Ought we to say a prayer, Jeannie? |
37917 | Send that at once, will you? |
37917 | Shall I laugh? |
37917 | Shall I say''ninety- nine''? |
37917 | Shall I tell you why I do n''t? |
37917 | Shall you tell Lord Davidstow? |
37917 | She''s rather silent and preoccupied, is n''t she? |
37917 | Slum? |
37917 | That was a bad business, was n''t it, Blessington? 37917 That''s something left, is n''t it? |
37917 | The dream? |
37917 | The white statue of Helena and the worms? |
37917 | Then did you behave improperly? |
37917 | Then how did you know they were there? |
37917 | Then what is there to be ashamed of? |
37917 | There''s time before we need dress, is n''t there? 37917 Think of what?" |
37917 | Twelve and six? |
37917 | Was I good as a rule? |
37917 | Was it the cupboard underneath the stairs in the hall here? |
37917 | Was she always like that? |
37917 | Was there any thunder? |
37917 | We''ll make some rule, shall we, father? 37917 We?" |
37917 | Well, mother darling? |
37917 | Well? |
37917 | What are you going to do now? |
37917 | What are you going to do? |
37917 | What are you going to do? |
37917 | What can have put that into your head? |
37917 | What did you do when you were six? |
37917 | What did you do with it? |
37917 | What do you want? |
37917 | What does that mean? |
37917 | What else? |
37917 | What evenings those birthdays evenings were, were n''t they? 37917 What for?" |
37917 | What had we better do? 37917 What have you and your father been talking about?" |
37917 | What is it, Archie? |
37917 | What is it? |
37917 | What is it? |
37917 | What is there to cry about? 37917 What made you do it? |
37917 | What right has a mangy brute like that to stop us? |
37917 | What would you feel if you found your father had been setting William to spy and report on you? |
37917 | What''ll that do? |
37917 | What''s happened? |
37917 | What''s quicksilver? |
37917 | What''s the matter with her then? |
37917 | What_ do_ you mean, Blessington? |
37917 | When did you bet me twelve- and- six? |
37917 | Where''s your darling face then? |
37917 | Which of us shall go and see what it is? |
37917 | Which room? |
37917 | Who ever heard such a thing? |
37917 | Who from? |
37917 | Who sent you them, Helena? 37917 Who''s going to shoot us? |
37917 | Who? |
37917 | Why are you crying? |
37917 | Why did Cyrus kill it, Jeannie? |
37917 | Why did Helena treat me like that? |
37917 | Why did n''t you slow down, Archie? |
37917 | Why did n''t you speak to her, mummy? |
37917 | Why do you speak like that? |
37917 | Why does he never come to see me now, Miss Jessie? 37917 Why not? |
37917 | Why not? |
37917 | Why should I forgive you? |
37917 | Why should n''t I take you away in my basket and put you in the Tower of Toads? |
37917 | Why''poor''? 37917 Why, dear?" |
37917 | Why, what do you mean? |
37917 | Will Miss Schwarz be better in the morning? |
37917 | Will he come again? |
37917 | Will you and Jessie be very kind and let me have two minutes with him? |
37917 | Will you come for a stroll, Jessie? |
37917 | Wish you happiness? |
37917 | Yes, but what''s mischief? |
37917 | Yes, darling, why not? |
37917 | Yes, my dear, will you? 37917 Yes; and they have ceased altogether for years, have n''t they?" |
37917 | Yes; is n''t it usual between friends? |
37917 | Yes? |
37917 | You did n''t sleep very long, Archie, did you? |
37917 | You do n''t want to go there, do you? |
37917 | You down already? 37917 You love her, do n''t you? |
37917 | You mother''s come, has n''t she? |
37917 | All that Martin said sounded divinely comforting and uplifting, but did there not lurk in it the whole gospel of Satanism? |
37917 | And are n''t you sorry for having burned my hearthrug? |
37917 | And are we to say anything to him about it?" |
37917 | And could that have been sunshine down there? |
37917 | And did you really hear conversation going on? |
37917 | And has everybody slept as serenely as I?" |
37917 | And how is my dear Madame Blessington?" |
37917 | And how long shall I have to wait before it begins again?" |
37917 | And if he could speak like that to a young and innocent child, why should he not continue to speak to his brother when he grew up? |
37917 | And what do you think of it all?" |
37917 | And where will you be? |
37917 | And where''s Jessie? |
37917 | And you''ll wait with me, dear, wo n''t you? |
37917 | And, if you''re right about her not loving anybody, do you mean that she does n''t love the Bradshaw?" |
37917 | Archie does n''t tell me everything, why should he? |
37917 | Are missionaries born or made, by the way? |
37917 | Are you going to bed?" |
37917 | Are you sure he has never heard of him? |
37917 | Besides, did you ever hear of such an unwarranted assumption? |
37917 | Besides, who knew that he did not give that as a test, as a proof of his identity, for surely nothing could have been devised so convincing? |
37917 | Blessington''s love, Helena''s love... which was real? |
37917 | Blue? |
37917 | But a voice from inside had said:"Is that you, darling? |
37917 | But about Helena: how is she bearing it?" |
37917 | But are n''t you an idiot, too? |
37917 | But he was rather rude, was n''t he? |
37917 | But if he kills another, may we have another funeral?" |
37917 | But may I be your Bradshaw?" |
37917 | But mummy, why did Cyrus kill the thrush? |
37917 | But there had been other factors as well, and who knew whether below this engaging exterior there were not planted the seeds of tragic outcome? |
37917 | But was n''t it divine? |
37917 | But was n''t it lovely? |
37917 | But we''ll help each other-- eh, Archie? |
37917 | But what had inspired those strivings and despairs and exultations? |
37917 | But what is thought- reading? |
37917 | But what proof is there that there is such a thing as the subconscious self? |
37917 | But who was this dear person called"Martin,"and where was Martin? |
37917 | But why had he not kissed her, when they sat on that last evening in the dark garden at Silorno? |
37917 | But you were n''t really anxious, were you?" |
37917 | But, later, may I borrow my Bradshaw again?" |
37917 | Ca n''t you tell me at all what caused it? |
37917 | Can there be a more obvious duty than that? |
37917 | Can you forgive me?" |
37917 | Can you imagine not looking forward to the delicious things you want?" |
37917 | Can you?" |
37917 | Certainly she aroused the ardour of his senses, but how long would that last? |
37917 | Certainly she looks well: do you think she has anything on her mind?" |
37917 | Chuck me over the evening paper, will you?" |
37917 | Contradiction go?" |
37917 | Did any one ever go there? |
37917 | Did he mind much?" |
37917 | Did n''t she know? |
37917 | Did n''t you think that Archie was very fond of her?" |
37917 | Did she have a brain- wave, do you think, and know that you were coming?" |
37917 | Did they come just ordinarily, like other clothes? |
37917 | Did you invent something about that too?" |
37917 | Did you know that you are the most outrageous flirt, Helena?" |
37917 | Do forgive me for questioning you, but-- but are you intending to marry Lord Harlow if he asks you? |
37917 | Do n''t you like him? |
37917 | Do n''t you want to see it? |
37917 | Do you believe in the possibility of Martin''s having made a communication to Archie?" |
37917 | Do you forgive me?" |
37917 | Do you mean that?" |
37917 | Do you really think that when I was a poor little consumptive chap at Grives I was really possessed by an evil spirit? |
37917 | Do you remember how sordid and horrible the discovery was?" |
37917 | Do you remember one night our finding that my father was breaking the contract he made with me about drinking? |
37917 | Do you think I have a very delightful life down here, all alone with him? |
37917 | Do you understand now?" |
37917 | Do you want to go?" |
37917 | Do you-- do you think your father will keep to it?" |
37917 | Does it sound likely?" |
37917 | English papers? |
37917 | For, if things had been the other way about, and Helena had been engaged to him, would she have allowed the Bradshaw to kiss her? |
37917 | Had n''t I given you leave to sit in my room, and look at my treasures? |
37917 | Has n''t Martin been here too?" |
37917 | Have n''t I told you?" |
37917 | Have n''t you ever seen a house like that? |
37917 | Have n''t you seen the immense change in me?" |
37917 | He could not have solidified them himself, but if any one capable of presenting them to him in actual words had asked him,"Is it this you mean?" |
37917 | He''s dining with us to- night, is n''t he? |
37917 | How are you, Archie?" |
37917 | How dare you?" |
37917 | How was it possible that Archie, who so few weeks ago was in such depths of misery and bitterness, could honourably suggest so dangerous a plan? |
37917 | How would that be?" |
37917 | I could n''t put on yours now, could I? |
37917 | I daresay you''ve got arms and legs as well as me, have n''t you?" |
37917 | I do n''t grant the reason for a moment; but, even if I did, what then? |
37917 | I may count on it always, may n''t I?" |
37917 | I must always think of that, must n''t I?" |
37917 | I say, did you ever have any lovers once upon a time?" |
37917 | I say, shall I drive with you to the station just as I am? |
37917 | I say, she is a devil, is n''t she?" |
37917 | I say, that is funny, is n''t it? |
37917 | If Martin can come to you, why should not other spirits? |
37917 | If he could say that, what credence could possibly be placed in the picture he had drawn of himself as his father''s last hope? |
37917 | If you want a test("Test?" |
37917 | In any case, was there another girl in London who had so attractive a second string to her bow? |
37917 | In the interval there was another surprise: how would Blessington wake him? |
37917 | Is Archie quite black yet from bathing? |
37917 | Is he not ministering to it? |
37917 | Is it shocking for a young lady to see a young gentleman''s bare feet and his pyjamas? |
37917 | Is it the sap? |
37917 | Is it you?" |
37917 | Is n''t it clearly for me to save my father? |
37917 | Is n''t it lovely, and that''s Martin''s photograph, is n''t it?" |
37917 | Is n''t it lucky that one does n''t feel like that?" |
37917 | Is n''t it sweeter to kiss Helena than to curse her?" |
37917 | Is n''t it, Miss Bampton?" |
37917 | Is n''t that rather too horrible an imagining? |
37917 | Is n''t there some nice young lady, Master Archie?" |
37917 | Is that it?" |
37917 | Is that why they ca n''t run properly? |
37917 | It is no use pressing for confidence, is it? |
37917 | It was sweet of her to want me, but how could I remain when Daddy was here? |
37917 | It would be rude not to, do n''t you think?" |
37917 | Just now I know you''re unhappy, and a bottle of wine makes things more tolerable, does n''t it?" |
37917 | Martin, Martin?" |
37917 | May I ask why I revolt you?" |
37917 | May I do that, Cousin Marion?" |
37917 | May I get some flowers for Archie''s room and Jessie''s? |
37917 | May we do it again soon? |
37917 | Mummy, when I grow up, may I be a clergyman?" |
37917 | Now I ask you, as a reasonable female, does that look like a message from a devil? |
37917 | Oh, Harry, do you remember how you used to come to tea in the nursery and Blessington made us behave properly till tea was over?" |
37917 | Oh, Miss Bampton, what does it mean, and who is Martin?" |
37917 | Oh, and what is a test? |
37917 | Oh, there''s tea; shall we have tea?" |
37917 | Or are they a birthday present?" |
37917 | Or are you and Jessie engrossed in something I sha n''t understand?" |
37917 | Or shall I go to bed? |
37917 | Or what in the image of himself as one who must silently bear cruel misconception? |
37917 | Or will Helena put him off? |
37917 | Or will they have nothing but crawlings?" |
37917 | Pass me that bottle, will you?" |
37917 | Shall I run upstairs and get a box to bury it in?" |
37917 | Shall we go into the hall? |
37917 | She wants to be loved, is n''t that it? |
37917 | She was at his wound again, taking off the bandages, seeing how it was getting on..."And how are you, darling?" |
37917 | She-- what''s the phrase?--she pulls the strings in this piece, does n''t she? |
37917 | So it was best to leave them, was n''t it?" |
37917 | So what on earth prevented a little dinner at a restaurant and an hour at a music- hall and a little supper somewhere and anything that turned up? |
37917 | So why should I be frightened at the thought that he could communicate with Archie? |
37917 | Sometimes a little delicate adjustment was necessary, but she seldom got caught out..."Darling daddy,"she said,"may I pay you a little visit? |
37917 | Supposing I had felt wicked and had burned you stylograph pen, should n''t I be sorry for having injured you? |
37917 | Tea?" |
37917 | That is part of Helena, is n''t it?" |
37917 | That made the thought of telling him not unpleasant to her; there was an excitement in the thought of seeing his blank face-- would it be blank? |
37917 | That will convey my good wishes in the usual manner, wo n''t it? |
37917 | The game in question was"Animal, Vegetable, or Mineral?" |
37917 | The hot weather did not really suit Cousin Marion, so why should not Cousin Marion go back to England with herself, Helena, as travelling companion? |
37917 | Then his father''s voice said:"Are you there, Archie?" |
37917 | There was a lot about the sea, but why on earth had he taken the trouble to write it? |
37917 | They''re still playing cards, are n''t they? |
37917 | Usually it did n''t want to do anything, and there was the sun and the snow, and would n''t it be jolly to go there? |
37917 | Was it my fault that I fell in love with him? |
37917 | Was it so? |
37917 | Was n''t it cruel of him? |
37917 | Was she being unreasonable, full of fear where no fear was, twittering with groundless and superstitious fancies? |
37917 | What dance is it, by the way?" |
37917 | What did he say?" |
37917 | What did that mean? |
37917 | What did you do with your bottles? |
37917 | What do you mean? |
37917 | What do you think put it into my head to empty the fire on to it?" |
37917 | What do you think she''ll bring you?" |
37917 | What had I done to deserve that? |
37917 | What have you done all day?" |
37917 | What if England did go to war with Germany? |
37917 | What made you come and tell me so long after?" |
37917 | What other explanation is there, unless indeed you imagine that I have merely perpetrated a silly hoax? |
37917 | What shall we sing?" |
37917 | What was his warning, after all? |
37917 | What was it? |
37917 | What will she do, do you think? |
37917 | What will you do with yourself?" |
37917 | What would you choose, Blessington?" |
37917 | What''s happening in that foolish England, if you''ve read the papers?" |
37917 | What''s that?" |
37917 | What?" |
37917 | Where are they?" |
37917 | Where have you been?" |
37917 | Where, then, do you think my duty lies, Jessie? |
37917 | Which is you, the surprise or the Archie that I know?" |
37917 | Who cares for what happens in England? |
37917 | Why did he want to hurt it and kill it? |
37917 | Why did she encourage me? |
37917 | Why did you hurt me?" |
37917 | Why should I be cross and unpleasant to people, as if it was wicked to like them?" |
37917 | Why should I suppose that there is anything of the sort? |
37917 | Why should n''t I? |
37917 | Why should n''t I? |
37917 | Why, then, should he bother about it, since he was not a sailor? |
37917 | Will that do?" |
37917 | Will you try to feel a little more kindly towards me? |
37917 | Without swagger, it was rather a good piece of work, do n''t you think?" |
37917 | Wo n''t you give me a kiss?" |
37917 | Wo n''t you really come, father?" |
37917 | Would n''t it be vastly easier for me to join my friends and go out alongside of them? |
37917 | Would she perhaps like to come down here? |
37917 | Yes; what is it?" |
37917 | Yet where, if she examined it more closely, was the unnaturalness? |
37917 | Yet who could they be for, if not for him? |
37917 | You like him, do n''t you? |
37917 | You wo n''t be vexed, will you?" |
37917 | You wo n''t go out to the war, will you? |
37917 | You wo n''t mind a gurgling cistern next door, will you? |
37917 | You wo n''t play me false with your friendship, will you?" |
37917 | You''re getting to be part of me, are n''t you? |
37917 | Your man, William, too, he''s gone and enlisted, has n''t he? |
37917 | he said,"when you saw her in the High Street?" |
37917 | thought Archie,"what''s that?") |
13319 | Are the Dead Alive? |
13319 | What shall the wedding breakfast be? 13319 _] Who has been at the desk? |
13319 | --the rest of them? |
13319 | ... And with that child? |
13319 | ... Ca n''t I make my presence known to_ you_? |
13319 | ... No word?... |
13319 | ... What did you mean, Andrew? |
13319 | ... What made you think of it just then? |
13319 | ... You believe that? |
13319 | A busy girl about the house, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | A circus? |
13319 | A compact? |
13319 | A cup of coffee, sir? |
13319 | A scene took place, eh? |
13319 | A what? |
13319 | Ah, but who lays out my linen? |
13319 | Am I going to be a bone setter in the next life and he a tulip man?... |
13319 | An M--? |
13319 | An offer? |
13319 | And could I hear you? |
13319 | And he died believing you? |
13319 | And how many times do you think_ you''ve_ been a spook yourself? |
13319 | And some day, should your children wander far away and my gardens blossom for a stranger who may take my name from off the gates,--what_ is_ my name? |
13319 | And then? |
13319 | And why were n''t we_ all_ told?... |
13319 | And you want to stay here? |
13319 | Anybody in this house come to their senses yet? |
13319 | Anything distressing you this morning, Mrs. Batholommey? |
13319 | Are you feeling better? |
13319 | Are you going... after all? |
13319 | Are you in your senses? |
13319 | Are you really going to sacrifice yourself because of-- Am I really losing you?... |
13319 | Are you sure he''s dead? |
13319 | Are you sure you remember that? |
13319 | Are you sure you''ll want to come back to live here? |
13319 | Are your feet wet? |
13319 | As for the Colonel, who spent half his time with Mr. Grimm, what is his reward? |
13319 | As_ PETER''S_ eyes rest on_ MARTA,_ he nods and smiles in recognition, waiting for a response._] Well, Marta?... |
13319 | B.--er? |
13319 | But better than all that-- who brings youth into my old house? |
13319 | But did you want her to be happy simply because_ you_ are happy, sir? |
13319 | But you hear me? |
13319 | Ca n''t my love for you outlive_ me_? |
13319 | Ca n''t you even hope? |
13319 | Ca n''t you say it politely? |
13319 | Ca n''t you wait a little while? |
13319 | Ca n''t you_ think_ I''m trying to help you? |
13319 | Ca n''t_ you_ understand one word? |
13319 | Can you hypnotize a thermometer? |
13319 | Can you see me, William? |
13319 | Can you, James? |
13319 | Catherine, have you asked James to be present at the ceremony to- morrow? |
13319 | Circus music? |
13319 | Come, Katie, tell me, on this fine spring morning, what sort of husband would you prefer? |
13319 | Could you talk to me? |
13319 | Dear old gentleman-- and er-- yes? |
13319 | Did I disturb you, James? |
13319 | Did he seem inclined to stay? |
13319 | Did it cross over?... |
13319 | Did n''t you? |
13319 | Did you never hear the story of the lady who flattened her nose-- sticking it into other people''s business? |
13319 | Did you see him, too? |
13319 | Did you, William? |
13319 | Did you-- er-- tell him that we intend to leave to- morrow? |
13319 | Do n''t you call that sweating? |
13319 | Do n''t you consider William much better? |
13319 | Do n''t you hear it, sir? |
13319 | Do n''t you know your old master?... |
13319 | Do n''t you want her to be happy because_ she_ is happy? |
13319 | Do you believe that you could come back here into this room and I could see you? |
13319 | Do you expect nothing to change in your house? |
13319 | Do you feel it? |
13319 | Do you know how I was cured? |
13319 | Do you know what I should like to say to your uncle? |
13319 | Do you know where Annamarie is? |
13319 | Do you know why I was sent away? |
13319 | Do you know why-- of all this household-- you are the only one to help me?... |
13319 | Do you like your new work? |
13319 | Do you mean it? |
13319 | Do you mean it? |
13319 | Do you mean to tell me that any young girl should be freer? |
13319 | Do you really believe such stuff? |
13319 | Do you remember the clown that sang:"Uncle Rat has gone to town?" |
13319 | Do you think he could have seen Uncle Peter? |
13319 | Do you think it did n''t get on my nerves? |
13319 | Doctor, you''ve seen a good many cross to the other world; tell me-- did you ever see one of them come back-- one? |
13319 | Does the whole damned town know it? |
13319 | Done for you? |
13319 | Eh? |
13319 | Eh?... |
13319 | F--? |
13319 | Free? |
13319 | Free? |
13319 | Give Katie more freedom, eh? |
13319 | Grow up to fail? |
13319 | H''m.... You both ask the same question, eh? |
13319 | Had it anything to do with my little girl? |
13319 | Happy, eh? |
13319 | Happy? |
13319 | Has it ever occurred to you that Katie is not happy? |
13319 | Has my journey been in vain?... |
13319 | Have you noticed how she''s coming out lately, James? |
13319 | Have you seen our orchids? |
13319 | He gabbed, eh? |
13319 | He tosses his cap, coat and book on the sofa._] What''s the matter? |
13319 | His eye is suddenly riveted on the telegram resting against the candlestick on the desk._] Is that telegram for me? |
13319 | His watch fob? |
13319 | How are you, Frederik? |
13319 | How are you, Mr. Hicks? |
13319 | How are your plum trees? |
13319 | How can it turn out otherwise? |
13319 | How do you do, Hartman? |
13319 | How do you feel, laddie? |
13319 | How do you know? |
13319 | How do you think I got the money? |
13319 | How ever did it find its way here? |
13319 | How is he, Doctor? |
13319 | How would you mount it?''" |
13319 | How''s William? |
13319 | How? |
13319 | However, I think I''ve done away with them, for the whole town understands that Katie has n''t a penny-- doesn''t it, James? |
13319 | Hy''re you, Mrs. Batholommey? |
13319 | Hy''re, Henry? |
13319 | I know you''ve set your heart upon her marrying Frederik, and all that sort of nonsense, but will it work? |
13319 | I mean-- what would Katie''s position be in this house? |
13319 | I must know more of this--[_Pauses abruptly._] Think, William, who came to the house? |
13319 | I must n''t cry... others have troubles, too, have n''t they? |
13319 | I''ll be back in the morning.... Wo n''t you... see me to the door? |
13319 | I''m finished? |
13319 | I''ve virtually given up my business for him, and what have I got out of it? |
13319 | I-- suppose it_ is_ a little too late, is n''t it?... |
13319 | I? |
13319 | If my voice can be heard from San Francisco over the telephone, why can not a soul with a God- given force behind it dart over the entire universe? |
13319 | If not, who had the picture?... |
13319 | If she''s happy, why should I care? |
13319 | If the rest of them only knew what they''re missing, eh? |
13319 | If you can not make your presence known to me-- I know there are great difficulties-- will you try and send your message by William? |
13319 | Is Hicks willing to make it worth while? |
13319 | Is Thomas Edison greater than God? |
13319 | Is it for this you hauled us out in the rain, Frederik? |
13319 | Is it healthy-- that''s the idea-- is it healthy? |
13319 | Is it... Peter? |
13319 | Is n''t it curious... to hear your name and turn and...[_ Unconsciously, she looks in_ PETER''S_ face._] no one there? |
13319 | Is n''t it here in the home?... |
13319 | Is n''t my message any clearer to you? |
13319 | Is n''t the news splendid? |
13319 | Is that all? |
13319 | Is that clear? |
13319 | Is that so? |
13319 | Is there anything you need to- day, Katie? |
13319 | Is there no one in this house to hear me? |
13319 | Is there no second chance in this world? |
13319 | Is_ that_ what he left to_ Henry_? |
13319 | It did?... |
13319 | It popped out; did n''t it, William? |
13319 | It sounds so respectable and sane, does n''t it? |
13319 | It would be-- er-- unusual to do it now, would n''t it? |
13319 | It''s all guess work, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | James Hartman? |
13319 | James, do you know how I happened to meet Katie? |
13319 | James, it has just occurred to me-- that--[_James pauses._] What was your reason for wanting to give up your position? |
13319 | James? |
13319 | James? |
13319 | Letter?... |
13319 | May I go with you? |
13319 | May I have a drink of his plum brandy, Frederik? |
13319 | Mine? |
13319 | Mr. Frederik, where''s_ old_ Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | My hat? |
13319 | My home? |
13319 | Need you go right away-- Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Never have, eh? |
13319 | Never since? |
13319 | No letter? |
13319 | No one? |
13319 | No? |
13319 | No? |
13319 | No?... |
13319 | No?... |
13319 | Nothing remarkable in_ that_, is there? |
13319 | Now? |
13319 | Of course I do, and why not? |
13319 | Of course, she does; and why not, why not, dear friend? |
13319 | Or why did n''t he_ continue_ his work? |
13319 | Or, still worse-- to succeed-- to be famous? |
13319 | Pastor? |
13319 | Pastor? |
13319 | Perhaps you think the camera was hypnotized? |
13319 | Peter Grimm''s gardens? |
13319 | Peter, have you provided for everybody in this house? |
13319 | Really? |
13319 | Said to you, eh? |
13319 | Said to you? |
13319 | See it? |
13319 | Sell out? |
13319 | Sell out? |
13319 | Settle your worldly affairs? |
13319 | So this is the end of Peter''s great work? |
13319 | So you want to go downstairs, eh? |
13319 | Something new, eh? |
13319 | Supposing you do find her and learn that it''s all true: what do you prove? |
13319 | Swallowed up? |
13319 | Tell me, William-- you heard the Doctor say that? |
13319 | Than I_ was_? |
13319 | That little tattler? |
13319 | That you do n''t love him? |
13319 | The junk, you mean? |
13319 | The lovers are in the shadow, but_ PETER''S_ figure is marked and clear._] Why did you go away? |
13319 | The old man''s aging; do you notice it? |
13319 | The persistent personal energy must continue, or what_ is_ God? |
13319 | The question_ every man wants the answer to_: what''s to become of me--_me_--_my work_? |
13319 | Then how''d that picture get into the house? |
13319 | Then it all comes to this: are you going to live up to your promise? |
13319 | Then why tell me? |
13319 | There are kisses tangled in her hair where it curls... hundreds of them.... Are you going to let her go? |
13319 | There... you caught that.... Why ca n''t you take my message to Catherine? |
13319 | They laugh at my hat? |
13319 | Think before you speak, my boy; what did Mr. Grimm say to you? |
13319 | This is better than"Puss in Boots,"is n''t it, Katie? |
13319 | To wear a heavy laurel wreath? |
13319 | To whom does this picture belong?" |
13319 | To- morrow? |
13319 | Was Frederik the man that came to see Annamarie? |
13319 | Was William present? |
13319 | Was he? |
13319 | Was it Frederik Grimm? |
13319 | Was n''t it nice where you were? |
13319 | Was there ever a girl who did n''t cry?... |
13319 | We must show her to everybody in the house, so that everybody will say:"How in the world did she ever get here? |
13319 | We''ll print it, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | We''re all about you.... Look at the gardens: they''ve died, have n''t they? |
13319 | Well? |
13319 | Were n''t you too small? |
13319 | Were you speaking of-- of ghosts, Doctor? |
13319 | What I really wish to consult you about is this: should n''t the card we''re going to send out have a narrow black border? |
13319 | What I wish to ask is this: would you have any objection to the name of Mrs. Batholommey being used as a witness? |
13319 | What are you doing here? |
13319 | What are you doing? |
13319 | What are you talking about, William? |
13319 | What chance has the beginner compared with a fellow who knew his business before he was born? |
13319 | What chance have I had to answer? |
13319 | What claim has he on you-- on any of us? |
13319 | What could he say? |
13319 | What do you intend to do? |
13319 | What do you know? |
13319 | What do you mean, Doctor? |
13319 | What do you mean, Uncle Peter? |
13319 | What do you mean? |
13319 | What has he been saying to you? |
13319 | What is it, after all? |
13319 | What is it? |
13319 | What is it? |
13319 | What made you think someone called you? |
13319 | What makes you say that? |
13319 | What makes you think he was delirious? |
13319 | What man made Annamarie cry? |
13319 | What man? |
13319 | What more can a fellow do to earn his money? |
13319 | What occurred the last time you saw her? |
13319 | What of to- morrow? |
13319 | What question? |
13319 | What should I know of her? |
13319 | What''s that? |
13319 | What''s the matter? |
13319 | What, William? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What? |
13319 | What?... |
13319 | What?... |
13319 | What_ will_ become of William? |
13319 | When I''m a little old leaf ready to curl up, eh, Fritz? |
13319 | When a bachelor wants to order a three- rib roast, who''s to eat it? |
13319 | When did you last see Annamarie? |
13319 | When, William? |
13319 | Where are you going? |
13319 | Where are you? |
13319 | Where do you get these extraordinary ideas? |
13319 | Where''s Uncle? |
13319 | Where''s the bosom of Abraham, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Where''s your mother, William? |
13319 | Where? |
13319 | Where? |
13319 | Who can tell? |
13319 | Who could resist her smiles? |
13319 | Who gets up at dawn to eat breakfast with me? |
13319 | Who is arranging the marriage, you or I? |
13319 | Who knocked? |
13319 | Who opened the door? |
13319 | Who puts flowers on my desk every day? |
13319 | Who sees that I have my second cup of coffee? |
13319 | Who tore it up? |
13319 | Who was he? |
13319 | Who''s got to die? |
13319 | Who''s in this room? |
13319 | Who? |
13319 | Who_ was_ the other one? |
13319 | Whose business is it? |
13319 | Why I quarrelled with your uncle? |
13319 | Why are you unhappy, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Why ca n''t a telegram travel on a fence instead of on a wire? |
13319 | Why did you ask it? |
13319 | Why did you come back, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | Why did you do it? |
13319 | Why did you lie to me? |
13319 | Why did you tell Marta that you''d had no message-- no news? |
13319 | Why did you tell me that you''d never seen her since she went away? |
13319 | Why do n''t you have more light? |
13319 | Why do n''t you tell the name, William? |
13319 | Why do you ask me? |
13319 | Why do you dislike him, Frederik? |
13319 | Why do you dislike him? |
13319 | Why do you hate that child? |
13319 | Why do you want to stay in this old cottage-- with its candles and lamps and shadows? |
13319 | Why do you wish to ship me off to Florida? |
13319 | Why does he always look towards that door? |
13319 | Why have n''t you told Frederik the truth? |
13319 | Why is he unhappy?... |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not? |
13319 | Why not_ now_? |
13319 | Why sell? |
13319 | Why should you carry out your uncle''s plans? |
13319 | Why should you worry over William? |
13319 | Why? |
13319 | Will nobody hear me? |
13319 | Will you have a glass of my plum brandy? |
13319 | Will you?... |
13319 | William, I want you to try to understand that you''re to help me, will you? |
13319 | William, do you think you could deliver a message for me... a very important message?... |
13319 | William, what makes you think that Mr. Grimm is in this room? |
13319 | William? |
13319 | With that sick child? |
13319 | Wo n''t you try and take it for me, eh? |
13319 | Would n''t you like a cup, Doctor? |
13319 | Would you mind handing me that telegram? |
13319 | Would you sell your great, great grandfather? |
13319 | Yes, Andrew?... |
13319 | Yes, yes....[_ Listens at the''phone._] The dear old man told you his plans never failed, eh? |
13319 | Yes, you_ did_ promise Uncle Peter you''d marry me, did n''t you? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | Yes? |
13319 | You ask me why? |
13319 | You ca n''t call Sir Charles Crookes, the inventor of Crookes Tubes,--a waster? |
13319 | You do n''t feel well, you say? |
13319 | You feel what I am saying.... You could n''t live without her, could you? |
13319 | You heard the Doctor say that? |
13319 | You mean that I-- You mean that I might... die? |
13319 | You mean that-- you-- you love her? |
13319 | You really do believe, Doctor, that the dead can come back, do n''t you? |
13319 | You remember many things, William... things that happened when you lived with Annamarie, do n''t you? |
13319 | You simply must live where things grow, must n''t you, James? |
13319 | You think so, my boy? |
13319 | You''ll be glad to see me, dear, wo n''t you? |
13319 | You''re a terrible man for planning, Peter; but what have you done? |
13319 | You''re looking me in the face, Andrew; can you see me? |
13319 | You''re not afraid now, William? |
13319 | You''re thinking of it, are n''t you? |
13319 | You''re very contented here with me, are you not? |
13319 | You''ve noticed it, too? |
13319 | You, too? |
13319 | Your uncle? |
13319 | [ FREDERIK,_ amused, listens in silence._] What should I be now-- a rough old fellow-- a bachelor-- without youth in my house, eh? |
13319 | [ FREDERIK_ gives_ PETER_ a glance as though to say,"Now, do you believe it? |
13319 | [ FREDERIK_ is silent._] What are you going to do for William? |
13319 | [ JAMES_ politely thanks him, but does n''t take one._] It''s a pleasure to talk to some one who''s interested; and you_ are_ interested, James? |
13319 | [ MARTA_ re- enters from_ WILLIAM''S_ room and closing the door comes down the stairs and passes off._] What_ are_ we to do with that child? |
13319 | [ PETER_ eyes him-- a faint smile on his lips._] If I got my price? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ has taken another piece of cake which he nibbles at-- now holding a piece in each hand._] Pretty substantial dream, eh? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ lays down the cake and, clasping his hands, thinks._ PETER_ answers his thoughts._] What? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ nods assent._]_ Old_ Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | [ WILLIAM_ nods._] Sure of that, William? |
13319 | [_ A rap sounds._] Who will that be at this hour?... |
13319 | [_ After a long pause._] Is it settled, sir? |
13319 | [_ After a shorter pause._] Is n''t she very young to marry, sir? |
13319 | [_ Alone._]"What shall the wedding breakfast be? |
13319 | [_ Aloud._] James, will you have dinner with us to- day? |
13319 | [_ Amazed._] Selling out? |
13319 | [_ Amused._] Why, James, what do you know about girls? |
13319 | [_ As though he recognizes the unseen guests._] I''ve been gone so long that you came for me, eh? |
13319 | [_ Astonished._] Sell? |
13319 | [_ At the''phone._] How are you, my old friend?... |
13319 | [_ Changing suddenly._] James: why do n''t you try to please Uncle Peter Grimm? |
13319 | [_ Covering the letter with his hand._] From whom?... |
13319 | [_ Echoing the_ DOCTOR''S_ words._] A sensitive? |
13319 | [_ Echoing._] Do I propose to live that long? |
13319 | [_ Echoing_ HICKS''_ words._] What would he say if he knew? |
13319 | [_ Enraged, raising his voice._] What? |
13319 | [_ Entering with a lamp._] Did someone call me? |
13319 | [_ Entering._] Did you wish to see me? |
13319 | [_ Enters-- evidently highly wrought up by the events of the evening._] Who was that? |
13319 | [_ For the first time fully realizing the situation._] Oh, must we stand or fall by the mistakes we made here and the deed we did? |
13319 | [_ Gives_ WILLIAM_ some pennies as he goes._] How he shoots up, eh, Marta? |
13319 | [_ Good- naturedly._] James? |
13319 | [_ Gruffly._] Why are n''t you in bed? |
13319 | [_ Her curiosity aroused._] What is it, Uncle?... |
13319 | [_ Hesitates._] What do you mean? |
13319 | [_ Hesitating._] Are you certain? |
13319 | [_ Ignoring her._] What did you tell Mr. Grimm when he asked you? |
13319 | [_ In a low voice._] Where''s Catherine? |
13319 | [_ Interested._] Yes? |
13319 | [_ Jots down a couple of notes._] Did you ever have this impulse before-- to give up Catherine-- to let her have the cottage? |
13319 | [_ Laughing._] Ah, Uncle Peter, have I made you take a liking to all the rest of the ladies? |
13319 | [_ Lightly._] Yes, yes, yes, let others take my work.... Why should_ we_ care? |
13319 | [_ Listens._] Bad, eh? |
13319 | [_ Listens._] To- night? |
13319 | [_ Listens._] You''ll come to- night?... |
13319 | [_ Looking towards the door of the office._] Did Hartman come? |
13319 | [_ Looks about uneasily, then glances towards the door leading into the hall._] Who is at the door? |
13319 | [_ Losing his temper._] What do you mean? |
13319 | [_ Nobody enters._] Where''s a light? |
13319 | [_ Not understanding the last word-- puzzled._] Eh? |
13319 | [_ Not understanding._] But what could Peter have to say to_ me_ concerning Annamarie? |
13319 | [_ Noticing an old gold- headed walking- stick in the hall._] Oh, er-- what are you going to do with all the old man''s family relics, Frederik? |
13319 | [_ Opening the door._] Yes? |
13319 | [_ Picks up the receiver._] Hello?... |
13319 | [_ Pointing to a glass of water on a tray._] Can I have a drink of water, please? |
13319 | [_ Pooh- poohing._] Crying? |
13319 | [_ Prints a kiss on her cheek._] Ca n''t you think I''m with you, dear child? |
13319 | [_ Puts his hand on_ PETER''S_ hand, which is still on his head._] But where''s your hand? |
13319 | [_ Putting his hand on_ WILLIAM''S_ head._] Now?... |
13319 | [_ Puzzled-- awed-- his voice almost dropping to a whisper._] How do you account for it, Doctor? |
13319 | [_ Questioningly-- dazed._] Dead? |
13319 | [_ Raises his hand for silence._] How did he look, William? |
13319 | [_ Recovering._] What''d he leave me? |
13319 | [_ Rising quickly._] Yes, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | [_ Rising to get his shawl-- gruffly._] Thought over what I told you concerning this marriage? |
13319 | [_ Seeing_ FREDERIK_ lay down the paper and rise._] Is that all? |
13319 | [_ She notices the lamp._] The night lamp for William? |
13319 | [_ Signing the letter._] Happy? |
13319 | [_ Slaps_ FREDERIK_ on the back._] You''re satisfied now, I hope? |
13319 | [_ Snapping his fingers._] What was the last offer the old man refused from Hicks, of Rochester, Jim? |
13319 | [_ Sticking her head in the door._] Ready for coffee? |
13319 | [_ Still dazed._] A prayer- book.... Me? |
13319 | [_ Suddenly changing-- dazed._] His prayer- book... me? |
13319 | [_ Suddenly noticing that_ CATHERINE_ seems more cheerful._] What''s happened? |
13319 | [_ Surprised._] Eh? |
13319 | [_ Surprised._] What? |
13319 | [_ Suspiciously._] Has Hartman been talking to you? |
13319 | [_ Taking her hand, drawing her towards the table with a change of manner._] Have you seen all the wedding presents, Kitty? |
13319 | [_ Taking the boy on his knee._] What makes you think Peter Grimm is in this room? |
13319 | [_ Taking the letter._] Prescribed? |
13319 | [_ The_ DOCTOR_ turns, facing_ PETER,_ looking directly at him as he puts his hand in his coat pocket._] You heard that, eh?... |
13319 | [_ Then changing._] Is it-- er-- a good offer? |
13319 | [_ To himself._] What in the world is the matter with me to- night? |
13319 | [_ Very low, as though afraid to interrupt_ WILLIAM''S_ train of thought._] What other? |
13319 | [_ Who has been looking down at the letter-- suddenly feeling_ PETER''S_ presence._] Who''s that? |
13319 | [_ Who has entered, saying carelessly to_ JAMES_ as he passes him._] Hy''re you, Jim? |
13319 | [_ With suppressed excitement-- half to herself._] Why are you afraid of him? |
13319 | [_ Without looking up, his hands folded in his lap._] Take me back with you, Mr. Grimm? |
13319 | _ Can_ it be true? |
13319 | _ Our_ gardens? |
13319 | _ in a satisfied way, brushes the crumbs off his lap, and sits back in his chair._] Have you had enough? |
13319 | whatever put this notion into your head? |
34988 | ''How did these wretches escape? 34988 ''Shall we permit these things to be so? |
34988 | Ah, the Saints preserve us, what''ll we do now, with Mr. Tabor away in the city an''that black villain of mine runnin''around the country after us? 34988 All right?" |
34988 | An''who''s to be takin''care av me poor lamb up- stairs all the while? |
34988 | And not a soul knows where you are? 34988 And that is why-- do you understand now?" |
34988 | Are we both going to be disguised? |
34988 | Are we making up time? |
34988 | Are you all right? |
34988 | Are you all right? |
34988 | Are you expecting any one to meet you? |
34988 | Are you in the secret too? |
34988 | Are you sure this is the place? |
34988 | Are you sure? |
34988 | Are you sure? |
34988 | Are you-- sure you know me, mother? |
34988 | Bob, what on earth will the neighbors think of you? 34988 But her heart, man, her heart,"objected Reid,"what about her heart, and the shock?" |
34988 | But how are we-- how am I-- going to get home? 34988 But what are you doing here in the world in July? |
34988 | But what can they do? |
34988 | But who is he? |
34988 | But who is''her''--his wife? |
34988 | But, after all, is n''t it just as empty as the rest? 34988 Ca n''t you make it go?" |
34988 | Can I--? 34988 Can you find a mirror?" |
34988 | Carucci? |
34988 | Carucci? |
34988 | Chauffeur? 34988 Crimped? |
34988 | Did Reid have some affair abroad before his marriage, or not? |
34988 | Did you see anything wrong at my sittings? 34988 Do n''t I?" |
34988 | Do n''t things enough happen to people without their seeking them out? |
34988 | Do n''t you love me? |
34988 | Do you feel that way about it, too? |
34988 | Do you know anything about a car? |
34988 | Do you know your way out of this? |
34988 | Do you mean to say,I demanded,"that now that my reputation is cleared that makes no difference?" |
34988 | Do you prefer to have my opinion in private? |
34988 | Do you think she is dead? |
34988 | Do you think that she-- that she is dead? |
34988 | Do you understand now? |
34988 | Do you want some one in particular, or will you leave a message? |
34988 | Do you wish me to refuse to sit for her? |
34988 | Fake? |
34988 | George, dear,she asked piteously,"what is the matter? |
34988 | George,she asked sharply,"what is Mr. Crosby doing here?" |
34988 | Giovanni Scalpiccio been in to- night? |
34988 | Had n''t I better go and leave you all free? |
34988 | Happened? |
34988 | Has Lady told you--? |
34988 | Has anything happened? |
34988 | Has he been back? 34988 Has that nothing to do with the trouble in the family? |
34988 | Have you heard anything further from your friend? |
34988 | Have you known them long? |
34988 | Have you no loyalty? |
34988 | Hello, Mr. Crosby? 34988 Here I am-- mother-- why did-- you-- bring me here?" |
34988 | How about the police? |
34988 | How about you? |
34988 | How do I know what he says? |
34988 | How do you know? |
34988 | How would you like it, Mr. Crosby,she added,"if you could never go out for even a walk all alone? |
34988 | Hurt? |
34988 | I thought we were going up to town? |
34988 | I understand, then, that Mr. Tabor did n''t suggest this to you? |
34988 | I wonder what Carucci will do? |
34988 | If I had, or could have, the faintest belief in anything really bad about you, do n''t you see that I should n''t be here? 34988 Is Miss Tabor at home?" |
34988 | Is anything the matter? |
34988 | Is anything the matter? |
34988 | Is he all right? |
34988 | Is it a fake, then? |
34988 | Is it burglary, or is somebody taken suddenly ill? |
34988 | Is it for me? |
34988 | Is n''t there a chance of a permanent cure for her by removing her from this spiritualism business? 34988 Is n''t this a coincidence?" |
34988 | Is not that the motor- car now at the door? |
34988 | Is some one else following? |
34988 | Is that a message from Miss Tabor or an objection on the part of the family? 34988 Is that all, or do you really want me to watch the Caruccis?" |
34988 | Is that all? |
34988 | Is that the secret, then? |
34988 | Is that you, Walter? |
34988 | Is the man still around here? |
34988 | Is the trouble no more than their fear that Mrs. Tabor is insane? |
34988 | It could n''t have been either of your Italian detectives, for instance? |
34988 | It is true,he said,"she is like the description; but then, how did she come here?" |
34988 | It sounds pretty wild and theatrical,said I,"but could n''t we reach the root of the trouble by making the cure come from the same source? |
34988 | It''s a gang of social lights that''s runnin''these stunts as a fad, you see? 34988 It''s like this, Laurie, you see? |
34988 | Just what does Doctor Paulus say? |
34988 | Know? |
34988 | Lady, Lady dearest,I cried,"ca n''t you see what it all means? |
34988 | Lady, dear,she cried,"what on earth has made you so late?" |
34988 | Lady,I cried,"why ca n''t I know? |
34988 | Look after things? |
34988 | Look here, why do n''t you smoke if you want to? 34988 Lost?" |
34988 | Mac,I asked,"who and what is Doctor Immanuel Paulus?" |
34988 | Mean? 34988 Miriam, did I understand what-- what I saw the other day?" |
34988 | Miriam, what are you saying? |
34988 | Mr. Crosby-- are you awake? |
34988 | My mother? |
34988 | No,said I,"what about them?" |
34988 | Not the chauffeur? 34988 Of course, you know the exact nature of the fellow''s blackmailing story?" |
34988 | Oh, anything I please-- it''s quite easy-- Do n''t you begin to understand? |
34988 | Oh, what do you mean? 34988 Oh-- might I speak with Mrs. Tabor, please?" |
34988 | Or is it only the festive motorman? |
34988 | Out with it, ye dhrunken beast,she said,"where is she?" |
34988 | Pardon; have you a match? |
34988 | Pretty comfortable place, eh? |
34988 | Really, Mr. Crosby, are n''t you rather overstating the case? 34988 Really? |
34988 | Reid? 34988 Reid? |
34988 | Safe? 34988 Say, Mac,"I asked him,"what did you make of that dago story?" |
34988 | Say,he asked hoarsely,"is yous all right? |
34988 | Say,he began,"do you remember that guinea that was here the other day and started the argument with the old gent out in front? |
34988 | Say,said the bartender, sliding my change down to me,"you''re the guy that asked about the guinea, ai n''t yer?" |
34988 | Secret? 34988 See here, Laurie,"he stammered,"I''m a newspaper man, you see? |
34988 | See here,I said,"did you people drug that fellow, Reid?" |
34988 | She is in town, is she not? |
34988 | Sheila,I said, as I rose to go,"is all you have told me true?" |
34988 | Sheila? |
34988 | So much as that? 34988 Talks all chokey, do n''t he? |
34988 | That was several years ago? |
34988 | That''s more like yourself than anything I''ve heard you say-- George, did you hear? 34988 The other day--? |
34988 | Then it''s just a question of getting rid of this fixed idea? |
34988 | Then who is Miriam? |
34988 | Then why are three of your cylinders all right and one all wrong? |
34988 | Then you are after Antonio Carucci? |
34988 | Then you''d_ lie_ about me? |
34988 | This guinea did n''t put the cops on, because he wanted to get you himself, you see? 34988 Thrue?" |
34988 | True? |
34988 | Was he by any chance also a sailor? |
34988 | Was it Miriam? 34988 Was n''t it a jolly week?" |
34988 | Was n''t there a bed in that room? |
34988 | Was that Doctor Paulus who just came in? |
34988 | Well, but that''s begging the whole question, Crosby, do n''t you see? 34988 Well, do you know where I can find our friend? |
34988 | Well, sir, what''s happened him? |
34988 | Well? |
34988 | What about my things? |
34988 | What am I to be frank about? 34988 What are we to do now?" |
34988 | What are you doing here? |
34988 | What are you going to do? |
34988 | What are you going to make out of it? |
34988 | What do you know of my mother? |
34988 | What do you mean? |
34988 | What do you mean? |
34988 | What do you mean? |
34988 | What do you think I am-- delegate from the organ- grinders''union? 34988 What do you think they are?" |
34988 | What do you think we had better do? 34988 What for?" |
34988 | What happened? |
34988 | What has happened? 34988 What have you told me?" |
34988 | What in the world are you ragging Miss Tabor about? |
34988 | What is it-- valves? |
34988 | What is it? |
34988 | What is it? |
34988 | What is it? |
34988 | What is that-- Mrs. Tabor? 34988 What is the matter with you all?" |
34988 | What is this idea, then? |
34988 | What makes you think so? |
34988 | What marriage notice? 34988 What of that?" |
34988 | What on earth are we to do now? |
34988 | What on earth do you want of him? |
34988 | What shall we do now? |
34988 | What sort of a crowd is this? |
34988 | What was it all about? 34988 What way? |
34988 | What will he think of us? |
34988 | What''s that? |
34988 | What''s the best chance? 34988 What''s the matter, sir? |
34988 | What, sir? |
34988 | What? 34988 What?" |
34988 | Whata you want? |
34988 | Where does your shady story come in? |
34988 | Where is Miss Tabor? |
34988 | Where is Walter? |
34988 | Where is the doctor? |
34988 | Where, O where are the Hebrew children? |
34988 | Who else could it possibly be? |
34988 | Who is this? |
34988 | Who was it that died? |
34988 | Who was it wanted to see him, sir? |
34988 | Who? 34988 Who?" |
34988 | Whom do you mean? |
34988 | Why did you search the side of the house, then? |
34988 | Why do n''t you let me go and rest? |
34988 | Why do you conclude that she has for some time been attending spiritualisms unknown to her family? |
34988 | Why have you taken her from me? |
34988 | Why on earth did n''t you''phone before? |
34988 | Why, Walter,Lady cried;"when did you come?" |
34988 | Why, what do you mean? 34988 Why?" |
34988 | Why? |
34988 | Would n''t it be wiser to make friends of us? |
34988 | Would you have me lie to her even for her good? |
34988 | Yes, I know; but who''s there? 34988 Yes; are you?" |
34988 | You do n''t think there''s any chance that Carucci--? |
34988 | You look hot,she said, glancing up,"what is the matter? |
34988 | You mean I''m to leave this minute-- in the middle of the night? |
34988 | You must tell me one thing more than that,said I;"is there-- is there any one else?" |
34988 | You''re a strange man,she muttered; then with her sudden smile,"Are n''t you coming in to breakfast? |
34988 | Yu''re a fly cop, ai n''t yu? |
34988 | _ If yu do nt giv her back she wil be taken._"What on earth does that mean? |
34988 | A circle that seems as well to begin at one point as at another, is it not so? |
34988 | A couple of other men came forward threateningly, and a bejeweled woman, who seemed to be the hostess, cried acidly:"Mercy on us, who is the fellow? |
34988 | A marlinespike, is n''t it? |
34988 | A young gentleman in the library-- who on earth could he be, and what did the fellow want? |
34988 | After all, I thought, as I reached my room, what business was it of mine? |
34988 | After another long silence I ventured:"Has n''t she always been worse after she has been away?" |
34988 | After some meditating she said,"Are you as irresponsible as that about everything?" |
34988 | All clear in there? |
34988 | Am I making this explicit enough?" |
34988 | And goodness gracious, what are you good people standing there so stiff and solemn for? |
34988 | And how, after the ordinary announcement in the press, could the marriage have become a secret at all? |
34988 | And if this house were in some way divided against itself, on what side was I? |
34988 | And in any case, why should the marriage be concealed and the husband retained as a member of the family, masquerading as a brother? |
34988 | And why did it matter so much? |
34988 | And yet-- was the explanation so perfect, after all? |
34988 | And you now bring me eagerly this information, so that you are with the Tabors much interested, which may prove-- you are no relation, is it not so?" |
34988 | Another man somewhere in the circle stammered uncomfortably:"I-- well-- er-- I beg your pardon, but-- could you move something quite beyond our reach? |
34988 | Are n''t you happy?" |
34988 | Are we all right now?" |
34988 | Are you free this morning, so that you can give us a few hours of your time? |
34988 | Are you quite sure?" |
34988 | Are you ready?" |
34988 | Are you sure it is n''t ignition?" |
34988 | Are you the judge of my right to close my own door?" |
34988 | As if the first plunge of the year were a sort of sacred rite?" |
34988 | But if I was the bearer of a plague, why had Lady been allowed to talk with me in the hall? |
34988 | But inside of that, you get''em all kinds, you see? |
34988 | But it is better to have the truth now, is it not so? |
34988 | But the detectives, I knew, were off the case; and besides them and Sheila, who could have the slightest interest in Carucci? |
34988 | But then, whose could it be? |
34988 | But what was the situation? |
34988 | But why not effect rather than cause? |
34988 | By the way, whom do you know there?" |
34988 | By what conceivable design or accident had I been made a prisoner? |
34988 | Ca n''t we take her as she is?" |
34988 | Can you come with me?" |
34988 | Can you doubt now after that?" |
34988 | Can you find some water? |
34988 | Can you hear? |
34988 | Can you see your way down?" |
34988 | Can you-- what? |
34988 | Could he have broken into the house, locking the bedrooms against interruption, and fled upon being discovered? |
34988 | Could there be any reason why my card had not been taken to her? |
34988 | Could there be possibly any connection between it and that chain with its hidden pendant? |
34988 | Crosby?" |
34988 | Crosby?" |
34988 | Crosby?" |
34988 | Crosby?" |
34988 | D''you remember?" |
34988 | Did Reid lie to me when he said so, or did Carucci lie when he said that Reid was married to Lady?" |
34988 | Did n''t you used to feel the same way about Lady when she was little and getting over the measles?" |
34988 | Did you hear the name, or recognize the voice?" |
34988 | Did you see those two ginks that we ran into in the door back there?" |
34988 | Did you see us stop your fat friend?" |
34988 | Do n''t come, do you hear? |
34988 | Do n''t you know how dangerous it is to turn on light that way?" |
34988 | Do n''t you see now? |
34988 | Do n''t you sometimes call yourself Lady?" |
34988 | Do n''t you want to come along? |
34988 | Do they know you''re coming?" |
34988 | Do ye think I look like a dead woman?" |
34988 | Do you doubt it? |
34988 | Do you mean that the some one else, the person who stands between you and me, is your mother?" |
34988 | Do you remember Humpty Dumpty''s objection to Alice''s face, that it was just like other faces-- two eyes above, nose in the middle, mouth under? |
34988 | Do you suppose any one that was actually held up and robbed of his fortune would think of the robber as merely a pleasant thrill?" |
34988 | Do you suppose they interviewed him?" |
34988 | Do you think it is nearly ready? |
34988 | Do you think that she could climb that bank, even if you could?" |
34988 | Do you think that you have been fair? |
34988 | Do you think the truth can ever be wrong?" |
34988 | Do you think there will actually be any extra search because of that?" |
34988 | Do you think you should have risked following me? |
34988 | Do you think you would enjoy the memory of a railroad accident-- even if you were n''t hurt yourself?" |
34988 | Do you understand what I mean? |
34988 | Do you understand?" |
34988 | Do you want any more?" |
34988 | Doc Reid, you know whom I mean? |
34988 | Does she love him?" |
34988 | Does this place trouble you?" |
34988 | Excuse me, but you have really nothing to sell, have you?" |
34988 | Fainted before the lights went on, you see? |
34988 | Five dollars apiece would about cover my fine, would n''t it?" |
34988 | For the love of God, what''s that?" |
34988 | For why shud he harm my man?" |
34988 | Had I touched upon some personal sorrow of her own? |
34988 | Had some general order gone out against me? |
34988 | Has Lady got back yet?" |
34988 | Have a cigarette? |
34988 | Have we been such very great friends? |
34988 | Have you any notion who did it?" |
34988 | Have you anything against me, that you''d swear to, yourself?" |
34988 | Have you been running?" |
34988 | Have you got the car outside?" |
34988 | Have you lost anything in your fall?" |
34988 | He frowned suddenly:"How much do you know?" |
34988 | He is a reporter--""A_ what_?" |
34988 | Honestly, do n''t you think we''re wastin''time?" |
34988 | How about Miss Tabor''s warning me off for all time, and then meeting me here as if she had n''t seen me since Christmas?" |
34988 | How about my door being locked? |
34988 | How about the dago sailor at the inn? |
34988 | How could she rest quiet after that, an''half her life callin''to her, an''the mother that would n''t let her go, an''had the power to see? |
34988 | How long ago may we possibly date the commencement of this practice?" |
34988 | How much truth is there in what your husband says?" |
34988 | I ca n''t see faces yet, can you?" |
34988 | I could not answer for a moment; then, as she drew her hand from mine,"What have I done?" |
34988 | I cried,"how in the world did you get here?" |
34988 | I have to know this now: Do you mean that it is true you have a sister, that her name is Miriam, and that she is-- that she was Doctor Reid''s wife?" |
34988 | I intend to be certain that he has left the country; do you understand?" |
34988 | I mean, whether Mrs. Mahl is a fake or not, ca n''t she be made to undo the work she has done, and discredit the dangerous belief she has taught?" |
34988 | I said savagely,"what is it?" |
34988 | I said,"and Mrs. Carucci-- is she badly hurt?" |
34988 | I want to know who they''re after, you see?" |
34988 | I want to talk to him?" |
34988 | I''m trying to get a little truth about people we both care for; and if you say things like that, how can you expect me to believe anything?" |
34988 | I''ve been having luncheon with Mr. Crosby,''You would n''t take the edge off of that disclosure?" |
34988 | If the mother''s madness of bereavement were at the root of all, what had the family to conceal? |
34988 | If we could reach that-- but how to make her not thus believe?" |
34988 | Is he coming now?" |
34988 | Is it Europe this summer, or the great libraries of America?" |
34988 | Is it not because of your mother that you say these things?" |
34988 | Is it not so?" |
34988 | Is it so far clear?" |
34988 | Is n''t it reckless of me?" |
34988 | Is n''t it terrible? |
34988 | Is that all?" |
34988 | Is that clear?" |
34988 | Is the car still at the door?" |
34988 | Is there any water in there?" |
34988 | It ca n''t be that you think her insane just because she believes in spiritualism? |
34988 | It certainly could not be her own and yet-- whose was it, anyway? |
34988 | Kin you look after things till Joe an''me git back?" |
34988 | Laurie, where is that bag? |
34988 | Look there-- the lady had fainted, you see? |
34988 | Mahl?" |
34988 | Mr. Crosby? |
34988 | Mrs. Mahl, what is happening?" |
34988 | Mrs. Tabor repeated, raising her brows,"lost? |
34988 | No, what chauffeur? |
34988 | Now are you satisfied? |
34988 | Now tell me how you can reconcile it with your conscience, to bring me up here to listen to such a proposal as this?" |
34988 | Now tell me,"he took me confidentially by the elbow,"w''at is it you want with Antonio Carucci?" |
34988 | Now, what do you know about that?" |
34988 | Now, will you meet all trains until further notice, and keep your eyes open? |
34988 | Oh, ca n''t you understand? |
34988 | On your word, is Miriam Tabor alive, or not?" |
34988 | One of those reporters?" |
34988 | One of those things on the bookcase, for instance?" |
34988 | Or if one of themselves had been stricken, why had she denied me for all time, or indeed made any mystery of the matter? |
34988 | Or meeting any one?" |
34988 | Or was it only by accident that her hand went to it in her moments of brooding? |
34988 | Or why should not the remaining daughter marry whom she chose? |
34988 | Say, you ai n''t sore, are you?" |
34988 | Shall I go first?" |
34988 | Shall I go in?" |
34988 | Shall I knock somebody up? |
34988 | Shall we allow the wealthy to avoid those punishments which we impose upon the poor? |
34988 | She turned to Mr. Tabor appealingly:"How can I deny my own faith? |
34988 | So he marries the Tabor girl, you see? |
34988 | Tabor?" |
34988 | Tabor?" |
34988 | Tabor?" |
34988 | Tabor?" |
34988 | Tell Mr. Tabor of this conversation, will you? |
34988 | That clears the atmosphere pretty thoroughly, does n''t it?" |
34988 | That crowd''s more afraid of the leadin''dailies than they are of the devil, you see?" |
34988 | That''s all, you understand? |
34988 | That''s what they let him out for, to watch him, you see? |
34988 | The gum- shoes think he croaked his old woman, an''they''re waitin''for him to give himself or somebody else away, you see? |
34988 | The incongruously matter- of- fact voice of the professor asked:"Are the hands all here?" |
34988 | The trolley--""Well?" |
34988 | Then Lady''s voice:"Mr. Crosby? |
34988 | Then all at once, her coolness gave way, and she flung herself around upon us in a flood of tears:"You''re a nice crowd of men, are n''t you?" |
34988 | Then as he helped me to raise Mrs. Tabor from her chair, he muttered:"Darn you, Laurie, what in blazes was bitin''you anyhow?" |
34988 | Then with an astonished look about the room,"Why, where is she?" |
34988 | There''s some nigger in this wood- pile that we do n''t know anythin''about, you see?" |
34988 | There''s this gang of Psychics or Spiritualists or whatever they are, up the line here, you see? |
34988 | They looked as if-- Does she love him, Miriam? |
34988 | They send me out on these things because I generally make good, you see?" |
34988 | They''re after the same dago, or else they''re after us, you see? |
34988 | This Mr. Crosby? |
34988 | Turn the lights on, Sheila-- and-- Lady, what have you done with my ring?" |
34988 | Was I to cut you there? |
34988 | Was I to explain to mutual friends that I did n''t want to meet you? |
34988 | Was n''t there an ancestor of yours who went to sea in a bowl?" |
34988 | Was that true?" |
34988 | Was that true?" |
34988 | Was that you?" |
34988 | Was there not surely some connection here? |
34988 | Was this her way of verifying her father''s opinion of me? |
34988 | Well, are you comin''?" |
34988 | Well, what about him?" |
34988 | Well, what did you make of that feller, anyway?" |
34988 | Were you the cheese that lugged the murdered scrubess down three flights of stairs?" |
34988 | What am I to report? |
34988 | What are you going to do next?" |
34988 | What are you going to do with him?" |
34988 | What business had he to behave as if he resented my being with her-- or for that matter, to resent anything she did? |
34988 | What can we do?" |
34988 | What difference does it make? |
34988 | What difference does it make?" |
34988 | What for?" |
34988 | What has come to you all?" |
34988 | What has happened?" |
34988 | What have ye done with her, you an''your silly revenges? |
34988 | What have you with her to do?" |
34988 | What is there in darkness and the sense of night to make even the plainest woman so lovely? |
34988 | What kind of a lookin''feller is he?" |
34988 | What possible claim had I upon even the least of her thoughts? |
34988 | What secret? |
34988 | What should I be but safe? |
34988 | What should make you think I was lost?" |
34988 | What''s the matter?" |
34988 | Where are the crew, and was n''t there another passenger?" |
34988 | Where do you live?" |
34988 | Where shall I put her?" |
34988 | Where was Miriam? |
34988 | Where''s mother?" |
34988 | Where''s your gallantry? |
34988 | Who did it? |
34988 | Who in Heaven''s name was the man? |
34988 | Who is he, anyway, and what the devil right has he to come and drag her away like this in the middle of her visit?" |
34988 | Who is there?" |
34988 | Who is this speaking?" |
34988 | Who was I that I should question her? |
34988 | Why are you all so nervous about me?" |
34988 | Why ca n''t God let us live like other people?" |
34988 | Why has it anything to do with us?" |
34988 | Why is a train less romantic than a stage- coach? |
34988 | Why on earth should he be rude to me? |
34988 | Why should I? |
34988 | Why should such a patent terror fill her at the thought of its loss? |
34988 | Why should you ask these things again?" |
34988 | Why was it again so finally and so quickly hidden away? |
34988 | Why were they not apprehended? |
34988 | Why, of course; but why doesn''t-- why do n''t you take some one else?" |
34988 | Will she be out around the garden anywhere, I wonder? |
34988 | Will some one turn down the light?" |
34988 | Will you come down- stairs as soon as you can, very quietly?" |
34988 | Will you do it, or not? |
34988 | Will you go to New York, too, and keep an eye on them until Carucci has gone? |
34988 | Will you please signal to the conductor?" |
34988 | Will you shake hands?" |
34988 | Will you tell her that I am here?" |
34988 | Wo n''t they be shocked and surprised when they miss you?" |
34988 | Wot''s de game, havin''yu''re pal chase along so far behind?" |
34988 | Would it trouble you too much to walk along with me? |
34988 | Would you mind looking, sir, while I''ll be seeing if she''s in the house?" |
34988 | Ye''re only in the city for the day?" |
34988 | You ca n''t tell whether it''s muck- rakin''or mud- slingin'', but it''s bound to be partly both, you see? |
34988 | You can''ta fool Antonio,_ non cio- è_?" |
34988 | You just want to cut out the comedy- chorus- man, you see? |
34988 | You know that Doctor Reid that''s in with the Tabors?" |
34988 | You know where to find him, Sheila, I suppose?" |
34988 | You understand that?'' |
34988 | You''ll hang out at the Club, wo n''t you?" |
34988 | You''re not going away, are you? |
34988 | [ Illustration:"Do ye think I look like a dead woman?"] |
34988 | _ But_, he''s just out of the jug, you see? |
34988 | he chanted,"Safe now in the promised land-- where''s your bag?" |
34988 | whined the voice,"you would n''t believe it anyway-- I do n''t want to talk to you-- Is mother there?" |
34988 | you have lost something?" |
34250 | All that sounds very romantic; and yet young men do win wealth and fame right here-- and why not you? |
34250 | Always? |
34250 | Am I dreaming? |
34250 | Am I to be a son of my mother? 34250 And leave Lucy unguarded?" |
34250 | And she would n''t do it? |
34250 | And the letter-- have you forgotten that? |
34250 | And yet how can I defend her? |
34250 | And you accept that? |
34250 | And you had a message from_ Altair_? |
34250 | And you took all that in? |
34250 | Are we starting back? 34250 Are we starting now?" |
34250 | Are you prepared now-- to- night? |
34250 | Are you related to this woman? |
34250 | Are you still out of the body, Lucy? |
34250 | Are you sure? |
34250 | Are you there, Lucy? |
34250 | Are you there, Margaret? |
34250 | Boy, am I? |
34250 | But did you? 34250 But have I prospered from these advices?" |
34250 | But how can they? |
34250 | But suppose you find my powers real? |
34250 | But what becomes of the infallible Voices? |
34250 | But what exactly do you intend to do with my mother? |
34250 | But you heard the whisper, did you not? |
34250 | By the way, who is Miss Wood? |
34250 | Ca n''t we go now? |
34250 | Ca n''t we sell something? |
34250 | Ca n''t you go on with your studies here and pass your examination? |
34250 | Ca n''t you see it? |
34250 | Can any one accuse me of getting rich out of my''work''? 34250 Can it be that yesterday I was behind the bat?" |
34250 | Can you ride a horse? |
34250 | Can you, my own son, accuse me of trickery? |
34250 | Can you? 34250 Could n''t you_ learn_ to love me?" |
34250 | Could you see her? |
34250 | Dark blue or light blue? |
34250 | Did The Voices tell you that I was turned down everywhere on account of my mother''s reputation as a medium? |
34250 | Did he know you had The Voices when he married you? |
34250 | Did n''t you visit her during vacations? |
34250 | Did n''t you? |
34250 | Did she give her name? |
34250 | Did some one drive up? |
34250 | Did that man Pettus call just now? |
34250 | Did you do that? |
34250 | Did you fold her hands and put her in the position she occupies? |
34250 | Did you formerly? |
34250 | Did you see how that man produced that message? |
34250 | Do many go to her for help of this kind? |
34250 | Do n''t you see how intolerable all that is going to be for me? |
34250 | Do n''t you? 34250 Do you call yourself an unprejudiced person?" |
34250 | Do you expect me to call this place home? 34250 Do you mean that you quarreled?" |
34250 | Do you mean the maid led you from the room? |
34250 | Do you mean to say that the dead speak in voices audible to others than yourself? |
34250 | Do you mean to tell me that_ you_ advise her how to invest her money? |
34250 | Do you read Italian? |
34250 | Do you realize that this failure means almost as much of a loss to you as it does to Louise? |
34250 | Do you really believe that the dead speak to us? |
34250 | Do you really hold stock in my mother''s Voices? |
34250 | Do you think it possible? |
34250 | Do you want to go to your room? |
34250 | Do you wish to be tried here and now on this charge? |
34250 | Does that shake your faith in the medium? |
34250 | Father, are you here? 34250 From whom?" |
34250 | Ghost- room? |
34250 | Have the controls consented? |
34250 | Have you any idea what the tests are to be? |
34250 | Have you been here all day? |
34250 | Have you called a doctor? |
34250 | Have you read this thing, Frens? |
34250 | Have you seen her? |
34250 | Have you? 34250 He did n''t warn you of the coming of the reporter, did he?" |
34250 | He said so much-- Where is mother? |
34250 | He''s a ripping good fellow and a wonder at the bat, but what can we do? 34250 Heavenly is the word; but who did it? |
34250 | Home? 34250 How about it, Vic?" |
34250 | How are you? |
34250 | How came the rose here? 34250 How can I go about this town seeking work to- morrow? |
34250 | How can we do that? 34250 How can you believe that? |
34250 | How can you help it? |
34250 | How can you tell? |
34250 | How could he help knowing it? 34250 How could we do that?" |
34250 | How could you? 34250 How did you learn that?" |
34250 | How do I get there? |
34250 | How do they punish you? |
34250 | How do you know? |
34250 | How is she, Doctor? |
34250 | How is she? |
34250 | How is that? 34250 How is your mother?" |
34250 | How much do you suppose you can borrow on it? |
34250 | How still it all is? |
34250 | How_ do_ you work that? |
34250 | Husky chap, ai n''t he? |
34250 | I am hoping she''s right, but I''m afraid that the doctors--"Is there anything I can do? |
34250 | I do n''t see why? 34250 I hope you are not going to be angry with me?" |
34250 | I hope you have n''t put your money into anything Pettus has control of? |
34250 | I suppose people_ do_ go to St. Joe for other purposes than marriage? |
34250 | I thought you were n''t going to discuss these subjects? |
34250 | I wonder if that_ is_ a fly? |
34250 | I wonder what is coming next? |
34250 | I''m crazy to know what he did last night, and what he really thinks of us? |
34250 | If I had ten dollars I''d ask you''why not?'' |
34250 | If mother still lives,he said to the nurse,"where is she? |
34250 | In what way? |
34250 | Is any one with your mother? |
34250 | Is it Altair? |
34250 | Is it Walter Bartol? |
34250 | Is it Watts? |
34250 | Is it as physical as that? |
34250 | Is it smoke? 34250 Is n''t it horrible that I should be here without a dollar and without a single relative? |
34250 | Is n''t that little man magnificent? 34250 Is n''t that smooth?" |
34250 | Is she more cunning than I thought? 34250 Is that his picture up there on the wall? |
34250 | Is that true? |
34250 | Is the electric out, Ferguson? |
34250 | Is this true? |
34250 | Is this your son? |
34250 | Is your curiosity satisfied? |
34250 | Just what does he want to do, Victor? |
34250 | Lucy, are you present? 34250 May I flashlight now?" |
34250 | May I not sit for Louise? |
34250 | May I sit? |
34250 | May I take your name? |
34250 | May I touch her? |
34250 | Mother, are you going to sit for Pettus to- night? |
34250 | Mother, are you sick? |
34250 | Mother, did you speak? |
34250 | Mother, how could you let me in for all of this? 34250 Mother, tell me this-- haven''t you noticed that your controls generally advise the things you believe in?" |
34250 | Mother, what do you suppose he wants of me? |
34250 | Mother, what is the matter? 34250 Mother,"he said, earnestly,"if Mr. Bartol gets us out of this scrape will you go away with me into some new country and give up this business?" |
34250 | Mrs. Joyce, you are a believer in Mrs. Ollnee''s powers? |
34250 | My niece, Leo, will be there-- surely you will respond to that lure? |
34250 | No relation to Mrs. Ollnee, the medium? |
34250 | No; who is_ Altair_ supposed to be? |
34250 | Now who is doing that? |
34250 | Now, what does that mean? |
34250 | Now? |
34250 | Of course not-- but--"What? |
34250 | Oh, I am a brute now, am I? 34250 Oh, my boy, do you doubt me? |
34250 | Oh, the suggestion came from The Voices, did it? |
34250 | Oh, why ca n''t she quit this business? 34250 One of the servants may have dropped it there,"he now admitted;"and yet how could that be? |
34250 | Really now, what can I do? 34250 Red ones, blue ones, brown ones-- which shall we begin on?" |
34250 | See here, Gil,called Macey, holding up an illustrated page,"do you suppose this woman is any relation to Vic?" |
34250 | Shall I fire? |
34250 | Shall I flashlight that? |
34250 | Shall we clasp hands, Lucy? |
34250 | Shall we go home? |
34250 | Shall we try another set? |
34250 | She said danger threatened-- did she tell you what the danger was? |
34250 | She was subject to trances, then? |
34250 | She_ was_ beautiful, was n''t she? 34250 Since I have been grown up?" |
34250 | So you are the son they spoke of? |
34250 | Suppose mother should be recognized as we enter? 34250 Suppose you should advise buying the wrong thing?" |
34250 | Taken? 34250 The bailiff?" |
34250 | Then did you take to making a living out of the ghost- room? |
34250 | Then you went to the library and read for a long time? |
34250 | There''s a paper at the foot of the stairs; is that yours? |
34250 | To be some man''s household drudge or pet? |
34250 | To me? |
34250 | Vic, what do you know of this business? |
34250 | Was I calm and efficient? 34250 Was n''t it beautiful? |
34250 | Well then-- will you remain here with me? |
34250 | Well, just how did your separation come about? |
34250 | Well, now, suppose these voices should turn out to be real? 34250 Well, why did n''t you sense the cause?" |
34250 | Well, why do n''t you experiment with her? 34250 What about Pettus?" |
34250 | What about the figure of your grandsire? |
34250 | What am I fitted for? 34250 What are you going to do?" |
34250 | What can I do? |
34250 | What can we do? |
34250 | What can we do? |
34250 | What did he say to you? 34250 What did he say?" |
34250 | What did she do? |
34250 | What did you think your mother would do? |
34250 | What do you expect me to do? |
34250 | What do you expect to do? |
34250 | What do you intend to do to- day? |
34250 | What do you know of your mother''s power as a medium? 34250 What do you mean by courage?" |
34250 | What do you mean by that? |
34250 | What do you mean by''controls''? |
34250 | What do you mean? |
34250 | What do you mean? |
34250 | What do you mean? |
34250 | What do you suppose came to him? |
34250 | What do you think ailed her? |
34250 | What do you want with her? |
34250 | What does he say? |
34250 | What does it explain? |
34250 | What does it say? |
34250 | What does she want of me? |
34250 | What has happened? |
34250 | What have you been doing this morning? |
34250 | What is his explanation? |
34250 | What is it all about? |
34250 | What is my strong point? |
34250 | What is your reason for asking? |
34250 | What is your will with me? |
34250 | What kind of a den was this ghost- room? |
34250 | What luck? |
34250 | What makes you think that? |
34250 | What powers? |
34250 | What right have you to pass judgment on your mother without examining her? 34250 What sort of fiction do you read?" |
34250 | What was the use? 34250 What will she say to me when we meet?" |
34250 | What will you do with her Voices? |
34250 | What''s that for? |
34250 | What''s that? |
34250 | What''s the excitement? |
34250 | What''s the matter between you and Victor? |
34250 | What''s the use of going to books? 34250 What''s the use?" |
34250 | What? 34250 When did Altair first come?" |
34250 | When did she die? |
34250 | When did you discover your mother''s present condition? |
34250 | When do we try? |
34250 | When will you try this again? |
34250 | Where are you now? |
34250 | Where did that come from? |
34250 | Where did they take her? |
34250 | Where do you expect to find so much money? |
34250 | Where does the form seem to be? |
34250 | Where is the nearest''phone? |
34250 | Where_ shall_ we go? |
34250 | Who are here? |
34250 | Who are you? 34250 Who are you?" |
34250 | Who are you? |
34250 | Who are you? |
34250 | Who are you? |
34250 | Who came for you? 34250 Who gets breakfast, you or I?" |
34250 | Who is it? |
34250 | Who told you anything was the matter? |
34250 | Who touched me? |
34250 | Whose fault is it? |
34250 | Why are n''t you youngsters out on the lawn? |
34250 | Why did n''t he tell us the truth before we voted him in here? |
34250 | Why did n''t you make me a medium? |
34250 | Why did you send me away from it all? |
34250 | Why did you stay? 34250 Why do n''t we go back to La Crescent? |
34250 | Why do n''t we have a sitting now? |
34250 | Why do n''t you go to bed? |
34250 | Why do you keep this rickety old thing? |
34250 | Why does this vivid and cultured woman seek my mother''s society? 34250 Why not drive an automobile? |
34250 | Why not join the league? |
34250 | Why not? |
34250 | Why not? |
34250 | Why should I be disciplined? 34250 Why should they? |
34250 | Why should you hate it? 34250 Why should you offer to do all that for us?" |
34250 | Why should''they''know anything about business? |
34250 | Why so, Victor? |
34250 | Why? |
34250 | Why? |
34250 | Will you let me see her? |
34250 | Will you wait till to- morrow before reporting? |
34250 | Would you experiment with your own mother? |
34250 | Would you mind taking my car and going to my home to tell Leonora where I am? 34250 Yes, do n''t you?" |
34250 | You accept money for your services, do you not? |
34250 | You believe in this woman''s Voices? |
34250 | You distinguish between the Voices of your friend and her own personality, do you? |
34250 | You do n''t intend to go out and nurse among strangers? |
34250 | You do n''t mean to read books,protested Mrs. Joyce, energetically,"when you''ve the very source of all knowledge right here in your own house? |
34250 | You do n''t seem to mind my loss of a degree? |
34250 | You have a conviction? 34250 You mean Mr. Bartol has asked you?" |
34250 | You mean a dead financier? |
34250 | You mean everybody that went to my mother for advice? |
34250 | You mean she has done this as-- as a medium? |
34250 | You must have noticed how much like my mother she was? 34250 You will lose heavily in this traction swindle, if it is a swindle, will you not?" |
34250 | You will not deny that you advised these investments? |
34250 | You would not? 34250 You''ll surely come after dinner, Victor?" |
34250 | You''re sure he wanted me? 34250 You''ve had no reason to doubt the genuineness of these messages?" |
34250 | You? 34250 You_ think_ you''re honest, mother-- but do n''t you see you''ve become an_ unconscious hypnotist_? |
34250 | Young people,he called, in a voice that somehow voiced a deep emotion,"do you realize that it is midnight?" |
34250 | _ Do n''t you know me? 34250 _ Does this not prove the medium innocent of ventriloquism?_""Stinchfield-- what about this?" |
34250 | _ Does this not prove the medium innocent of ventriloquism?_"Stinchfield-- what about this? |
34250 | _ Father._"Who is speaking? |
34250 | _ Grandfather?_"_ No._He hesitated before asking the next question. |
34250 | _ Is this sufficient?_asked the unseen. |
34250 | _ Mamma is here-- and Walter._"Can they speak? |
34250 | _ Margaret._"Margaret? 34250 _ Matter, the strongest steel, is but a form of motion._""What is all that to me?" |
34250 | _ Mysterious Psychic Forces._ Know this tome? |
34250 | _ Victor_; what are you doing? |
34250 | _ Wait._"Is there anything you want to say to Victor? |
34250 | _ Will you swear the psychic did not do it?_asked the Voice. |
34250 | _ Yes, I have come to speak to my grandson._"Do n''t you see him now? |
34250 | _ Yes, yes, yes!_"Do you wish to speak to me? |
34250 | _ Yes._"About your father? |
34250 | _ Yes._"Through my mother? |
34250 | _ Yes._"What shall we do? |
34250 | _ Your father._"What have you to say to me? |
34250 | A boy''s voice answered,"What ye want, maw?" |
34250 | A policeman?" |
34250 | A sibilant whisper replied,"_ Yes, soon._"A moment later, another and distinctly different voice called softly,"_ My son._""Who is it?" |
34250 | After looking down into the silent face for a long time he asked, in stately fashion,"May I make momentary examination of the body?" |
34250 | Aiken?" |
34250 | Aiken?" |
34250 | Altair._""I wonder who Altair is,"he mused, staring at the bit of paper,"and what is the danger that threatens?" |
34250 | Am I not an inmate here?" |
34250 | Am I right?" |
34250 | Am I to hear voices and see visions?" |
34250 | And finally, why should he employ"foreigners"? |
34250 | And now may I see her?" |
34250 | And yet all this seemed so difficult to believe-- and besides, if the girl came in her sleep, did it not prove her love quite as conclusively? |
34250 | And, most important of all, why do''they''permit you to be hounded this way? |
34250 | Are we to see Altair?" |
34250 | Are you comfortable, mother?" |
34250 | At last she said,"I''m hungry, are n''t you?" |
34250 | At last she said:"Where is the morning_ Star_? |
34250 | At length he asked,"Who is it-- Father?" |
34250 | At seven o''clock she was forced to interrupt:"What_ are_ you children up to?" |
34250 | Bartol said to Mrs. Ollnee:"Would you mind dressing for the performance? |
34250 | Bartol?" |
34250 | Bartol?" |
34250 | Blodgett?" |
34250 | But never mind-- where will I find your mother?" |
34250 | Ca n''t I head him off somehow?" |
34250 | Ca n''t you come over at once? |
34250 | Ca n''t you persuade him to go back? |
34250 | Can it be possible that I took it from her room?" |
34250 | Can you prove your identity?" |
34250 | Can you see me?" |
34250 | Come, Victor, why do you shrink? |
34250 | Come, what do you say?" |
34250 | Could it be his mother''s breath? |
34250 | Could it be that Leo had been his visitor? |
34250 | Could it interpenetrate matter? |
34250 | Could it project an etheric double of itself? |
34250 | Could n''t you think of a newer one?" |
34250 | Did Paul, or any one, advise you last night?" |
34250 | Did he advise your uncle to go into this same transportation company?" |
34250 | Did he believe in this thing?" |
34250 | Did he ever study a wonderful psychic like your mother? |
34250 | Did n''t he mean my mother?" |
34250 | Did she long for human companionship? |
34250 | Did she really exist, or was it merely some sort of hallucination?" |
34250 | Did you catch it?" |
34250 | Did you ever plague an ant or a bug by putting something in its way, checking its advance, no matter in which direction it went?" |
34250 | Did you know that?" |
34250 | Did you notice it?" |
34250 | Did you, the night after our walk on the drive in the moonlight-- did you dream of me?" |
34250 | Do n''t the belief in these things wipe out everything you have been taught at school? |
34250 | Do n''t you feel it?" |
34250 | Do n''t you hear me?" |
34250 | Do n''t you hear them? |
34250 | Do n''t you see I ca n''t take another cent of my mother''s money now that I know how it''s earned?" |
34250 | Do n''t you see it?" |
34250 | Do n''t you see that makes it impossible for either of us to remain here another day?" |
34250 | Do n''t you think we''d better go in? |
34250 | Do not touch her._""Mother, do n''t you know me? |
34250 | Do you believe that story?" |
34250 | Do you believe what they say against me?" |
34250 | Do you believe what you saw and heard last night?" |
34250 | Do you doubt?" |
34250 | Do you expect me to hang about this scrubby hole to be disciplined by your Voices?" |
34250 | Do you hear me? |
34250 | Do you know that these Voices will not permit her to retain more than a scanty living out of all the wealth she makes for others? |
34250 | Do you know what I think she was?" |
34250 | Do you realize that?" |
34250 | Do you share her faith?" |
34250 | Do you suppose I''m going back there where all the fellows are laughing at me? |
34250 | Do you think my mother unconsciously cheats?" |
34250 | Does it explain Altair to you?" |
34250 | Does n''t it show that there is no peace or security for either of us so long as we remain here? |
34250 | Does she believe in your-- your Voices?" |
34250 | For what reason does she lavish money upon her? |
34250 | Has he candidly examined these phenomena? |
34250 | Has she done so?" |
34250 | Have n''t we had a heavenly day?" |
34250 | Have you called a doctor?" |
34250 | Have you had breakfast?" |
34250 | Have you seen her slate- writing''stunt''?" |
34250 | Have you seen it?" |
34250 | Have you seen your mother this morning?" |
34250 | Have you talked with your mother about our sitting?" |
34250 | Have you thought of that, Doctor?" |
34250 | He did not reply for a moment, and Mrs. Joyce eagerly called,"Did you hear that whisper, Victor?" |
34250 | He hesitated a moment, then answered:"I''ve been mending that old table-- I suppose you heard about my smashing it?" |
34250 | He laid his own vital, magnetic palm upon her arm, and finding it still cold and pulseless, called out:"Mother, do you hear me? |
34250 | He sat in silence for a few moments, then burst out wildly:"Are we all going crazy together? |
34250 | He went to her then, still in a daze, and to her question,"Did your father come?" |
34250 | He will raise you high!_''""What do you mean by that?" |
34250 | Her sudden return proved this-- and his hair rose at the thought of her clairvoyancy, and in answer to Mrs. Joyce''s question,"Why did you do it?" |
34250 | Her voice was deep and full of dramatic fervor as she said:"You are Victor Ollnee?" |
34250 | His mother was waiting for him on the porch, and as he came up, asked with shining face:"Is n''t this heavenly, Victor?" |
34250 | How am I to pay my way? |
34250 | How came she there? |
34250 | How can I?" |
34250 | How can they be anything but a delusion?" |
34250 | How can they direct me in what I am to do?" |
34250 | How could I convince them that I was not sharing in the profits of my mother''s business? |
34250 | How could he continue to brood over his future with a lovely girl by his side and a sweet and tender spring landscape unrolling before him? |
34250 | How could he refuse it? |
34250 | How did he find you?" |
34250 | How did that come about?" |
34250 | How did you sleep?" |
34250 | How do I know who is speaking to me? |
34250 | How do they do that?" |
34250 | How does Lucy take the promise of a test?" |
34250 | How else can you explain these Voices?" |
34250 | How was it possible for such service to go on during the master''s absence with apparently the same unerring precision of detail? |
34250 | How was that bit of pencil moved? |
34250 | How''s that?" |
34250 | I have a reason for asking-- did you?" |
34250 | I live._""Who are you?" |
34250 | I suppose he gave me a bad name? |
34250 | I suppose it is too much to expect that they will come up to- day?" |
34250 | I think all that should be counted in on her side, do n''t you? |
34250 | I wonder how many more such visitors we are to have? |
34250 | I wonder if it emits heat?" |
34250 | If I bring back a belief in immortality do I not make fullest recompense to my host? |
34250 | If he knows so much about the future why did n''t he warn my mother against that reporter that came in the other day to do her up? |
34250 | Is it Margaret?" |
34250 | Is it because of her personal charm? |
34250 | Is n''t it heavenly out here?" |
34250 | Is n''t that true?" |
34250 | Is she an aunt or a sister?" |
34250 | Is she playing a more complex game than appears?" |
34250 | Is she rich also?" |
34250 | Is that right, Paul?" |
34250 | Is that true?" |
34250 | Is this the usual method of your communications?" |
34250 | It humbled him, made him wonder if he were worth the risk she had run? |
34250 | It''s too disturbing for them-- don''t you think so?" |
34250 | Joe?" |
34250 | Joyce?" |
34250 | Leo, breathing a sigh of sad ecstasy, exclaimed:"Is she not beautiful? |
34250 | Leo, will you stretch out, too?" |
34250 | Let me take it?" |
34250 | Let me tell you? |
34250 | May I see them?" |
34250 | Mrs. Joyce exclaimed,"You do not intend to cage her in that?" |
34250 | Mrs. Ollnee and Mrs. Joyce came in as he was speaking, and Mrs. Joyce, after disposing herself comfortably, said,"Well, what is your report?" |
34250 | Mrs. Ollnee, how will you have us sit?" |
34250 | Of what avail to call it"material"? |
34250 | Oh, Victor, you must promise me that should I pass out suddenly you will try to keep the spirit- way open between us-- will you promise this?" |
34250 | Ollnee?" |
34250 | Ollnee?" |
34250 | Ollnee?" |
34250 | Oppressed by the silence, Victor called out,"Mother, are you here?" |
34250 | Or do I imagine it?" |
34250 | Ought I to step in and stop it?" |
34250 | Science?" |
34250 | Shall I bring him in and give her over to all?" |
34250 | Shall I flash my camera?" |
34250 | She has sacrificed herself to keep me at school-- why should she deceive me?" |
34250 | She knew enough of baseball slang to catch his meaning and she smiled as she asked,"Why do n''t you go back?" |
34250 | She read an unmitigable opposition in his eyes and sadly said,"You''ll come here to sleep, wo n''t you?" |
34250 | She turned her face upward, and, listening intently, asked,"What is the reason, father?" |
34250 | Stinchfield?" |
34250 | Suppose these messages have been from the dead?" |
34250 | The man at the door wore an expression of well- governed concern, which led Leo to sharply ask:"What is it, Ferguson? |
34250 | The question was simple: Could the human organism put forth from itself a supernumerary hand or arm? |
34250 | The renowned lawyer gazed at the medium with eyes that burned deep, and presently he asked,"What have you to say to me?" |
34250 | The tick counted one, two, three--"_Yes._""Some one to speak to me?" |
34250 | Their minds are just the same as they were, are n''t they?" |
34250 | Then his filial self answered:"But what has she to gain? |
34250 | There was a little silence before Victor was able to ask,"Where did he go?" |
34250 | They were both a little dashed by Victor''s appearance as he queried, with scowling brow,"What do you want?" |
34250 | They''ve made Louise and Leo rich-- I suppose you know that?" |
34250 | To test it, he asked,"Are you a spirit?" |
34250 | Victor called out to his mother:"Can you hear The Voices, mother? |
34250 | Victor sat down beside his mother, whispering,"What is it all about?" |
34250 | Wait._""Who spoke?" |
34250 | Was Altair but a transitory flower of the dark-- aloof, intangible, and sad? |
34250 | Was ever such a week of trial and perplexity thrust upon a youth? |
34250 | Was it possible that thought could be precipitated like dew upon a sheet of paper? |
34250 | Was it you, Lucy?" |
34250 | Was she unhappy in the icy realms from which she came? |
34250 | We are agreed that she is not_ consciously_ deceptive?" |
34250 | We ca n''t exhibit her in a trance?" |
34250 | Well, and you believe''the great commodore''comes to our little hole of a home to advise us? |
34250 | What I can not understand is this-- Why did your father and his band permit these treacherous personalities to intervene? |
34250 | What Margaret?" |
34250 | What about Miss Wood? |
34250 | What can you know of me in so short a time?" |
34250 | What caused it?" |
34250 | What claim have we on this big, busy man? |
34250 | What did The Voices give you?" |
34250 | What did he do for a living?" |
34250 | What did he think?" |
34250 | What did they advise you to do?" |
34250 | What do I care? |
34250 | What do they know of this great city? |
34250 | What do you want here?" |
34250 | What does he know about it? |
34250 | What does it all mean? |
34250 | What form has she taken?" |
34250 | What has happened to you?" |
34250 | What has happened?" |
34250 | What has she done to make you bitter?" |
34250 | What have I done?" |
34250 | What have we who are young and vigorous to do with the dead, anyway? |
34250 | What have you been doing?" |
34250 | What have you to say to that?" |
34250 | What is it all about?" |
34250 | What is it?" |
34250 | What kind of a session did you have? |
34250 | What meant the wistful sweetness of her smile? |
34250 | What right have we to sit here?" |
34250 | What shall I do?" |
34250 | What the youth was really saying to the maid was this:"What did you get out of it all? |
34250 | What time do you suppose it is?" |
34250 | What time is it?" |
34250 | What was he? |
34250 | What were ghosts, inventions, theories, compared to the satin- smooth curve of the maiden''s cheek or the delicate flutter of her lashes? |
34250 | What were these invisible, intangible barriers which confined him? |
34250 | What will he find?" |
34250 | What will you do, boy?" |
34250 | What would you do in my place? |
34250 | What? |
34250 | When will my mother''s case come up?" |
34250 | Where are Aunt Louise and your mother? |
34250 | Where are you going to have this performance?" |
34250 | Where is Leo?" |
34250 | Who brought it?" |
34250 | Who had planned and organized this wide- walled, low- toned room, this marvelously effective cuisine? |
34250 | Who have taken her?" |
34250 | Who is this great financier who is so willing to help you decide what to do with other people''s money?" |
34250 | Who organized it?" |
34250 | Who was my father? |
34250 | Who was she? |
34250 | Who? |
34250 | Why did his mother''s left hand quiver-- and how could that writing shape itself? |
34250 | Why did n''t he permit me to stay on at Winona and get my degree?" |
34250 | Why did n''t you go before?" |
34250 | Why did n''t you go in for civil engineering or chemistry?" |
34250 | Why did n''t you tell me?" |
34250 | Why did n''t''they''warn you? |
34250 | Why did they not defend her from these demons?" |
34250 | Why did you send me to college, knowing that sooner or later exposure must come?" |
34250 | Why do n''t you go for a ride in the park? |
34250 | Why do n''t you go in for that?" |
34250 | Why do n''t''they''help me?" |
34250 | Why do you look so sad?" |
34250 | Why does fire burn and water run? |
34250 | Why had he bought the place? |
34250 | Why is her work less honorable than singing, for example? |
34250 | Why not find out something about it? |
34250 | Why not?" |
34250 | Why should a poor farmer like my grandfather by just merely dying become a great financier?" |
34250 | Why should a woman''s career mean only marriage?" |
34250 | Why should father or grandfather know any more about stocks now than he did before he died?" |
34250 | Why should his life be thrown into the midst of such cheap and ill- odored drama? |
34250 | Why should it? |
34250 | Why should she attract and hold a lady like Mrs. Joyce? |
34250 | Why should you?" |
34250 | Why slam into Vic?" |
34250 | Why, after it was bought, should he spend so much money on it? |
34250 | Why?" |
34250 | Will you help me?" |
34250 | Will you listen to me? |
34250 | Will you make this synopsis to- day?" |
34250 | Will you permit this?" |
34250 | Will you promise that?" |
34250 | Will you wear it for me?" |
34250 | Would anything so beautiful ever come again? |
34250 | Would her interest be the same if The Voices had not enriched her? |
34250 | Would she come again? |
34250 | Would the_ Star_ forego its malignant assault upon her character now that she was gone beyond its reach? |
34250 | Would those who threatened her with arrest be remorseful? |
34250 | Would we not all go back again to this sweet land of love and longing-- if we could? |
34250 | Would you have your mother seek him out to convince him? |
34250 | Would you marry a man like Stainton Moses or David Home?" |
34250 | You mended it, did n''t you?" |
34250 | You''re her son, eh?" |
34250 | You''ve seen him? |
34250 | _ Will_ you come again?" |
34250 | _ mother!_ Are you ill?" |
34250 | called Mrs. Joyce; and then with true motor spirit, addressed the driver:"What''s the time, Denis?" |
4251 | -he queried, glancing at me--Does she''express''herself in radiance?" |
4251 | Afraid? |
4251 | Am I rude? |
4251 | Am I? 4251 And afterwards?" |
4251 | And can you? |
4251 | And humility? |
4251 | And one of these two was--? |
4251 | And that is-- what? |
4251 | And then? |
4251 | And to what did your severe ordeal lead? |
4251 | And to- night--? |
4251 | And what did he say? |
4251 | And you think he has won? |
4251 | And--here Mr. Harland hesitated, then went on--"Are you married?" |
4251 | Are you in dreamland? |
4251 | Are you quite sure of that? |
4251 | Are you ready to start now? |
4251 | Are you speaking Gaelic? |
4251 | Are you sure of that? |
4251 | Are you sure you do not? |
4251 | Are you sure? |
4251 | Are you? |
4251 | As a gift? |
4251 | But do you not see that you are shutting yourself out from love? |
4251 | But suppose they are beautiful and happy memories? |
4251 | But surely,--I said, with some hesitation--"Phoenician is no longer known or spoken?" |
4251 | But what''s the use of telling me this? |
4251 | But you asked me,I went on--"did you not, to tell you why it is that I am contented and happy? |
4251 | But, after all, is this not a truth? |
4251 | But-- if others stand in the way? |
4251 | By what? |
4251 | Can you deny it? |
4251 | Can you read people''s thoughts? |
4251 | Can you say it wrongly? |
4251 | Captain, will you get the boat lowered, please? |
4251 | Catherine,I went on, abruptly--"Will you let me leave you in a day or two? |
4251 | Could you not explain? |
4251 | Curable by outward applications of electricity? |
4251 | Did I not tell you and others long ago that for me there is no such thing as time, but only eternity? 4251 Did the''wild Highland fellow''name me?" |
4251 | Do I laugh at serious things? |
4251 | Do I look like a man that has failed? |
4251 | Do you consider his influence harmful? |
4251 | Do you endorse that verdict, Miss Harland? |
4251 | Do you hear me? |
4251 | Do you know I am rather disappointed in you? |
4251 | Do you like his theories? |
4251 | Do you mean to tell me,--do you DARE to tell me--he said--"that you see any''aura,''as you call it, round my personality?" |
4251 | Do you not know? |
4251 | Do you not? 4251 Do you think God ever gets tired?" |
4251 | Do you think it is a REAL yacht? |
4251 | Does he consider himself immune from the common lot of mortals? |
4251 | Does it still beat? |
4251 | Dr. Brayle tells you that? |
4251 | Everlastingness? |
4251 | Excuse me, sir,--he said, suddenly--"but may I ask how it is you sail without wind?" |
4251 | Father is vexed you are going,--she went on--"He says it is all my silly nonsense and hysterical fancies-- do you think it is?" |
4251 | Has he any special treatment for you? |
4251 | Has it not, even in your pursuit and attainment of wealth, brought you more pain than pleasure? 4251 Have you come to fetch me?" |
4251 | Have you no curiosity? |
4251 | Have you not left yourselves out? |
4251 | How can I help you when you leave me? |
4251 | How can it be Santoris? |
4251 | How can you say so? |
4251 | How did you know? |
4251 | How do you know you have not lost him already? |
4251 | How has life wronged me? |
4251 | I am-- but how can you tell? |
4251 | I ca n''t see what you mean,--she said--"How can I love? |
4251 | I do n''t know,she answered--"I scarcely heard--"""Your father does n''t believe in love,"he said--"Do you?" |
4251 | I have two patients on board,--he answered, smiling--"Which one?" |
4251 | I hope you''re quite comfortable on board,--she resumed, presently--"Have you all you want in your rooms?" |
4251 | I look it, do n''t I? |
4251 | I mean, do you like the idea of there being no death and that we only change from one life to another and so on for ever? |
4251 | I never heard of him till your father spoke of him,--and never saw him till--"Till when? |
4251 | I see Mr. Harland''s yacht has returned to her moorings,--he said, after a while, addressing his men,"When did she come back?" |
4251 | I suppose he is paid a good deal for his services? |
4251 | I suppose if Aselzion told her the truth she would go at once? |
4251 | I think I do,--I answered--"But is it possible always to make this effort of the Will?" |
4251 | I think I do,--I said--"You mean that I must stand alone?" |
4251 | I think YOU knew him,he went on, addressing me directly, with a straight glance--"You met him some years back, did you not?" |
4251 | I understand,he said--"that you are interested in the lighting of my yacht?" |
4251 | I wonder if I shall ever meet you again? |
4251 | I''m sure you are convinced that Santoris is honest,he said--"Are you not?" |
4251 | I? 4251 If I give you a straight answer, such as I feel to be the truth in myself, will you be offended?" |
4251 | If I have any psychic force at all,I responded,--"where do you suppose it should come from but that which gives vitality to all animate Nature? |
4251 | If we made mistakes, could we altogether help it? |
4251 | If you should not return to this room,--he said, slowly--"is there any message-- any communication you would like me to convey to your friends?" |
4251 | In what way should I doubt him? |
4251 | Is admiration of the beautiful a special privilege of men only? |
4251 | Is he such a very terrible gentleman, then? |
4251 | Is it a time for compliments? |
4251 | Is it not something more than beautiful? |
4251 | Is n''t it too late to talk about such things to- night? |
4251 | Is n''t that so? |
4251 | Is that a sign of grace and consolation? |
4251 | Is that your experience? |
4251 | Is your curious conception or ideal of love the reason, why you have never married? |
4251 | It amuses you, does n''t it? |
4251 | It has not occurred to you-- I suppose you have not thought-- that-- that it may be an illusion? |
4251 | It is frequently very selfish,--she said--"I want to tell you my love- story-- may I?" |
4251 | It''s curious you should meet him again like this,--said Catherine--"But surely, father, he''s not as old as you are?" |
4251 | It''s rather strange, is n''t it? |
4251 | Master--he said,"would it not be better to die than to grow old? |
4251 | May I go on smoking? |
4251 | Miss Harland, pray go back to your cabin-- you are not strong enough--"What''s the matter, Catherine? |
4251 | Must the glory fade? |
4251 | My enemy? |
4251 | Mystery? |
4251 | No, I do not,--she said, with quick, almost querulous? |
4251 | No? 4251 Not in you, surely?" |
4251 | Oh, do you call it resignation? |
4251 | Oh, do you not? 4251 On me?" |
4251 | One may feel a pardonable curiosity,he said,"And a desire to know--""To know what?" |
4251 | Or too little? |
4251 | Ought we? |
4251 | Quite regular, is n''t it? |
4251 | Really not? 4251 Really?" |
4251 | Results? 4251 Say, Donald,"he began, invitingly--"did you see the big yacht that came in last night about ten o''clock?" |
4251 | Shall I not see you again? |
4251 | Shall we put it off? |
4251 | Should I? |
4251 | So am I,I answered--"But, after all-- you would hardly want him to stay, would you? |
4251 | Something of the country we are in,--said Mr. Harland--"Don''t you know any of those old wild Gaelic airs?" |
4251 | Strong? |
4251 | Suppose we say noon? |
4251 | Surely she''s very large for a sailing vessel? |
4251 | Surely that is not what you think at the bottom of your heart? |
4251 | Surely you do not maintain that a man is responsible for his own ailments? |
4251 | Surely you know how difficult it is for me? |
4251 | Tell me,--I half whispered--"Have I failed?" |
4251 | Tell me,he persisted, softly--"Is there very much that we do not, if we are true to each other, know already?" |
4251 | Tell me,he said,--"and be perfectly frank about it-- what is it you see in Brayle that rouses such a spirit of antagonism in you?" |
4251 | That is so, is n''t it? |
4251 | That is your desire?--to help him and to be all in all to him? |
4251 | The gentleman? 4251 The largest I''ve ever seen,"--he replied--"But how did she sail? |
4251 | The woman here is the latest victim of his hypnotic suggestions, is n''t she? |
4251 | The yacht? |
4251 | Then how did she get here? |
4251 | Then why do you trouble about me? |
4251 | Then why not end it? |
4251 | Then-- is Creation a lie? |
4251 | Then? 4251 There''s nothing remarkable in that, is there?" |
4251 | To business men they are--"And business itself? 4251 Transformed?" |
4251 | Vexed? 4251 Was he?" |
4251 | Was it a compliment? |
4251 | Was it? |
4251 | Well, Catherine, then,--I said, smiling a little--"Surely you know why I am contented and happy?" |
4251 | Well, Harland, how are you? |
4251 | Well, are you willing? |
4251 | Well, what is it? |
4251 | Well, why do you not give me the obvious answer? |
4251 | Were you? 4251 What about our little friend''s''aura''? |
4251 | What accusation do you bring against life? |
4251 | What are these? |
4251 | What are those opinions? |
4251 | What can I do? |
4251 | What did I tell you the other day? |
4251 | What do you mean by that? |
4251 | What do you mean by that? |
4251 | What do you mean? |
4251 | What do you say to leaving me on board while you and my little friend go and see your sunset effect on Loch Coruisk by yourselves? |
4251 | What do you say? 4251 What do you think about it?" |
4251 | What does all this mean? |
4251 | What does the world seek most ardently? |
4251 | What is it? 4251 What is your opinion of Santoris?" |
4251 | What sort of an interview did you have with that gentleman when you got on board his yacht? |
4251 | What then? 4251 What whole thing?" |
4251 | What will happen if I fail? |
4251 | What would you call proper care? |
4251 | What wouldst thou do for Love? |
4251 | What''s his name? |
4251 | What''s the use of gaining anything if it is to be lost at a moment''s bidding? |
4251 | When you married,I said, at last--"did you not marry for love?" |
4251 | Who arranged these rooms? |
4251 | Who denies your right to go far if you have the strength and courage? |
4251 | Who is responsible,--I said to myself--"for the sense of fear? |
4251 | Who speaks of losing the way? |
4251 | Why a princess? |
4251 | Why did you wish me to explain, then? |
4251 | Why do you laugh? |
4251 | Why do you look at me like that? |
4251 | Why do you not let him try? |
4251 | Why do you say that Catherine will be better when you are gone? |
4251 | Why do you say that? |
4251 | Why do you want to go by the steamer? |
4251 | Why does n''t he write a novel? 4251 Why for me in particular?" |
4251 | Why not apply it yourself? |
4251 | Why not exchange courtesies? |
4251 | Why not? 4251 Why should it seem to you so wonderful?" |
4251 | Why, what''s the matter with you? |
4251 | Why,--I murmured to myself, for I did not suppose anyone could or would hear me--"why should we and our world perish? |
4251 | Why,I pursued--"should you come to me with warnings against those whom God or Destiny has brought into my life? |
4251 | Why? 4251 Will you go in and rest for a while till luncheon?" |
4251 | Will you meet Santoris again, do you think? |
4251 | Without wind, eh? |
4251 | Would it not rather depend on the particular choice each one of us might make? 4251 Would you LIKE to meet him again?" |
4251 | Would you be sorry if I could? |
4251 | Yes? 4251 You are really going away?" |
4251 | You are resolved, then? |
4251 | You are satisfied with your researches, then? |
4251 | You are seeking the Master? |
4251 | You are something of a spiritualist, I believe? |
4251 | You believe in that? |
4251 | You can ask that? |
4251 | You do n''t care for sunsets? |
4251 | You do not-- you will not misjudge me? |
4251 | You enjoyed yourself at Loch Coruisk, did n''t you? |
4251 | You have never met your ideal, I suppose? |
4251 | You know he is very ill,--she went on--"and that he can not live long?" |
4251 | You mean occult mysteries and things of that sort? |
4251 | You prefer to believe Brayle, of course? |
4251 | You really and truly think Brayle an impostor? |
4251 | You surely did n''t think she was in any danger? |
4251 | You think so? 4251 You went abroad from Oxford?" |
4251 | You were not afraid of him, then? |
4251 | You will not say,he interrupted me--"that you have no dislike of me?" |
4251 | You will take these, I hope? |
4251 | You wish to speak to me alone,said Santoris, then--"Do you not? |
4251 | You wo n''t come, then? |
4251 | You''re not vexed with me for speaking as I have done? |
4251 | You''re sure you do not mind? |
4251 | Your men are not Highlanders? |
4251 | Your task is not finished, then? |
4251 | ''I do n''t see it,''I blurted out, angrily--''What of the other fellows? |
4251 | ''What''s the matter with you, Harland?'' |
4251 | --I answered--"Why should I be offended?" |
4251 | --I echoed, smiling--"In what way?" |
4251 | --I said, almost pleadingly--"Why should it not remain with us?" |
4251 | --She paused.--"Shall I tell it to you?" |
4251 | --and his eyes were full of kindness as he looked at me--"and I want to know if you thoroughly realise the importance of the lesson we have taught?" |
4251 | --he cried--"Of what use then is life? |
4251 | --he stammered--"And-- er-- if there should be no one--""What do you mean?" |
4251 | A curious resentment awoke in me at her words-- had I indeed no lover? |
4251 | A shadow of something like sternness clouded his brows, and I began to be afraid-- yet afraid of what? |
4251 | After a little the tension of suspense became unbearable and I spoke again--"How did I escape?" |
4251 | After all, what was the use of my anger or excitement? |
4251 | Ah!--but they spoke of the death of him whom I loved!--must I not listen? |
4251 | All these questions should have answer,--for nothing is without a meaning,--and nothing ever HAS BEEN, or ever WILL BE, without a purpose? |
4251 | Am I touching on some old memory? |
4251 | Among your many accomplishments do you count the art of medicine?" |
4251 | And I smiled a little--"Why?" |
4251 | And I''m not a Christian Scientist either?" |
4251 | And Santoris gave him a quick, straight glance--"But what do you mean by''imaginary''and''transcendental''? |
4251 | And can she not serve you as an object lesson?" |
4251 | And her voice had no tremor--"With you?" |
4251 | And his brows knitted perplexedly--"If we knew, would we take the necessary trouble? |
4251 | And if those two souls were destined lovers, COULD they be divided, even by their own rashness? |
4251 | And in my foolish pride I had voluntarily severed myself from him!--was this my punishment? |
4251 | And now-- had the answer come? |
4251 | And of Aselzion''s splendid prime when he should be old and feeble? |
4251 | And of Love? |
4251 | And she turned to the old man beside her with an appealing gesture--"Is it not so?" |
4251 | And that love of woman?--was she your true mate?--or only a thing of eyes and hair and vanity? |
4251 | And the captain''s look expressed volumes--"Where is she?" |
4251 | And the deep answering tones were full of music,--the music of a grave and infinitely tender compassion--"Why did you doubt it? |
4251 | And to what purpose?" |
4251 | And what did they signify? |
4251 | And why call upon God? |
4251 | And why should you attempt it? |
4251 | And why? |
4251 | And yet-- who were those persons, if persons they were, who talked of him with such easy callousness? |
4251 | And yet-- why should we listen to them? |
4251 | And you-- you will meet Mr. Santoris again, do you think?" |
4251 | And-- had I yielded to the temptation? |
4251 | Are you bent on the very highest and most unselfish ideals of life and conduct? |
4251 | As I sat by the window thinking and dreaming, I began to wonder what would be the nature of that''last fear''of which Aselzion had spoken? |
4251 | At any rate, you have no distrust of him? |
4251 | At last I spoke--"I would rather die, if death were possible, than lose his love"--I said--"And where there is no love, surely there must be death?" |
4251 | But ARE you? |
4251 | But I wish you would tell me--""All about myself?" |
4251 | But if this were so, what could be his object? |
4251 | But if you would consider the point logically-- you might enquire what motive could he possibly have for playing the humbug with me?" |
4251 | But is n''t this Miss Harland''s cabin?" |
4251 | But that secret which you are reported to possess-- the secret of wonderful abounding exhaustless vitality-- how does it happen that you have it? |
4251 | But then the question presented itself-- What had I gained? |
4251 | But was ever love so expressed?--and had it ever before such a far- off beginning? |
4251 | But what does it matter after all? |
4251 | But where? |
4251 | But why should I or you or anyone else think about it? |
4251 | But with me it is different-- perhaps when I am away I shall be able to think more calmly--""You are going away?" |
4251 | But, had I not the testimony of my own eyes? |
4251 | But-- had it come to this? |
4251 | But-- was it wise? |
4251 | Can it be the influence of Santoris? |
4251 | Can you put up with my company for an hour or two and allow me to be your guide to Loch Coruisk? |
4251 | Can you wonder that I refuse to be''drawn''?" |
4251 | Canst thou listen to falsehood bearing witness against truth, and yet love on? |
4251 | Captain Derrick waited for someone to hazard a remark, then, as we remained silent, he addressed Mr. Harland--"Well, sir, what do you make of it?" |
4251 | Come, are we all ready?" |
4251 | Could I explain it, even to myself? |
4251 | Could it be possible that what they said was true? |
4251 | Could it kill me with sheer terror? |
4251 | DOST THOU BELIEVE IT?" |
4251 | DOST THOU BELIEVE IT?" |
4251 | Dared I trust to these suggestions which the worldly- wise would call mere imagination? |
4251 | Days or weeks? |
4251 | Dear Miss Harland, do you really believe in that way of administering electricity?" |
4251 | Did I believe in my lover''s love, or did I doubt it? |
4251 | Did the whole responsibility rest with me, I wondered? |
4251 | Did you see the yacht?" |
4251 | Did you seek to know whether that Soul had ever wakened within her, or were you too well satisfied with her surface beauty to care? |
4251 | Did your passion touch her body only, or did it reach her Soul? |
4251 | Directly I entered her cabin she said:"Where did you get that bright bit of heather?" |
4251 | Do you believe in the actual immortality of your soul, and do you realise what it means? |
4251 | Do you know how long we have been separated already?" |
4251 | Do you really want to know?" |
4251 | Do you seek to be one of them?" |
4251 | Do you truly think that when death shall come to you it is really NOT death, but the simple transition into another and better life? |
4251 | Does this teach no lesson on the resurrection of the dead? |
4251 | For a moment I could not realise what had been said and tried to repeat both question and answer--''Where did the yacht go down?'' |
4251 | For here she suddenly leaned forward and took my hand, looking earnestly in my face--"How can you imagine such a thing possible?" |
4251 | For instance, you are in pain now?" |
4251 | For what avails the power of man if he may not bend a woman to his will? |
4251 | For what was Rafel Santoris to me? |
4251 | Gone down? |
4251 | Had I been long absent from this room, I wondered? |
4251 | Had I failed? |
4251 | Had I failed? |
4251 | Harland, will you all come over to the yacht to- morrow? |
4251 | Have you not watched us long enough to make discovery easy? |
4251 | Have you seen her?" |
4251 | Having read thus far, I paused-- the little room in which I sat appeared darker-- or was it my fancy? |
4251 | He does enjoy it, and why? |
4251 | He rubbed his hand wearily over his brows-- then asked--"Did you sleep well?" |
4251 | Here he turned to me--"Will you come on deck for a little while before bedtime, or would you rather rest?" |
4251 | How can I choose-- yet? |
4251 | How can I do otherwise, seeing that it is the Key to the Soul of Nature?" |
4251 | How could I say otherwise? |
4251 | How dare I say that I scarcely knew one who had been known to me for ages? |
4251 | How dared these people restrain my liberty? |
4251 | How did he know, how could he know, the intimate details of a life like Catherine''s which could scarcely be of interest to a man such as he was? |
4251 | How do you know that you have not been deceiving yourself ever since your gradual evolvement from subconscious into conscious life? |
4251 | How do you know?" |
4251 | How does he manage that business?" |
4251 | How has life wronged me? |
4251 | How shall we find each other? |
4251 | How was that?" |
4251 | How will you endure these trials?--what will be your method of action?" |
4251 | How?" |
4251 | I answered him--"Did you see nothing of it?" |
4251 | I answered--"Don''t you see people moving about on board?" |
4251 | I answered;--"If you feel like that, why not give it up at once?" |
4251 | I asked him, quickly--"Why do you want to find out that something in me which baffles both Dr. Brayle and yourself?" |
4251 | I asked, and looking up in the moonlight to my companion''s face I saw that it wore a puzzled expression--"Hardly conventional, I suppose?" |
4251 | I asked, and my voice trembled in spite of myself--"To you as well as to me?" |
4251 | I asked, laughingly,"Was she a real yacht or a ghost?" |
4251 | I asked, with some warmth--"How can you obtain what you are secretly craving for, if you persist in denying what is true? |
4251 | I asked--"Does it not seem that we tried for the best?" |
4251 | I asked--"Who saved me when I fell?" |
4251 | I began to wonder how long I had been a''probationer''in the House of Aselzion? |
4251 | I demanded-"What right has HE to judge me?" |
4251 | I echoed--"And why?" |
4251 | I exclaimed--"Surely you will not go--""I must,"he answered, quietly,--"Are not YOU going? |
4251 | I exclaimed--"To make a misery of what should have been a gladness? |
4251 | I had sought long and unwearyingly for the clue to the secret of life imperishable and love eternal,--was the mystery about to be unveiled? |
4251 | I had struggled against the terror of its first spectral appearance, and had conquered my fears,--why was I now shaken from my self- control? |
4251 | I half whispered-"What is it I must know? |
4251 | I murmured--"Will you come to me?--or shall I go to you? |
4251 | I pressed my hands to my eyes to try and cool their burning ache-- was it possible that what these voices said could be true? |
4251 | I queried--"To consider yourself?" |
4251 | I queried--"When the mischief is in the mind? |
4251 | I repeated--"Surely where life exists there is no end?" |
4251 | I said, hotly--''So you consider me and my friends crooked pigstyes in your landscape?'' |
4251 | I said, suddenly,--"Here we are-- two yachts anchored near each other in a lonely lake,--why should we not know each other? |
4251 | I said--"May I come on the bridge?" |
4251 | I said--"Or why not let me go away? |
4251 | I said--"You are quite certain of that?" |
4251 | I say again-- Will you THINK with me? |
4251 | I spoke the words aloud-- then went on reading--"What is Heaven? |
4251 | I was full of doubts and imagined evils-- and why? |
4251 | I wonder how you manage it? |
4251 | If I am in danger how shall I escape from it?" |
4251 | If I were indeed an utter stranger to him, why should he take this trouble? |
4251 | If so, why such waste of brain and heart and love and patience? |
4251 | If that was true how came he here? |
4251 | If the happiness of the one I loved was obtained through other means than mine, ought I to grudge it? |
4251 | If, as you teach us, there is no real death, should there be any real decay? |
4251 | In every great lesson of life or scientific discovery people ask first of all''How can_ I_ benefit by it?'' |
4251 | In fact, my dear Harland, as you have schooled yourself to believe NOTHING, why urge me to point out a truth you decline to accept? |
4251 | In what way?" |
4251 | Instinctively I pressed my hand against my heart and felt the letter my''lover''had given me-- surely that was no dream? |
4251 | Into the rosy grace Of the sun''s deep setting- place? |
4251 | Is it for such a monotonous, commonplace way of life and purpose as this, that humanity has been endowed with''infinite faculty''? |
4251 | Is it for the many or only for the few? |
4251 | Is it not I alone who am the instigator of my own dread?--and can this dark, dumb Spectre do more to me than is ordained for my blessing in the end?" |
4251 | Is it not also from some points of view a''nothing''?" |
4251 | Is it not best to yield to the insistence of the music of life while it sounds in our ears? |
4251 | Is it not possible to avoid the errors of the past?" |
4251 | Is it not so?" |
4251 | Is it not so?" |
4251 | Is it not strange that even the eager spirit, craving for its preordained mate, is subject to error? |
4251 | Is it not too often a mere blasphemy and affront to the majesty of the Divine? |
4251 | Is it pride, defiance, or ambition with you?--or is it all love?" |
4251 | Is it the sea air, the sunshine, or-- Santoris?" |
4251 | Is not the Deity Himself the Supreme Lover?--and wouldst thou have me a castaway from His holiest ordinance? |
4251 | Is that agreed?" |
4251 | Is that quite candid?" |
4251 | Is that settled?" |
4251 | Is the Soul to be moved from its centre by casual opinion? |
4251 | Is the boat ready?" |
4251 | It may be asked how I dare to make such an assertion? |
4251 | It''s most kind of you to offer to stay with me and to give up an evening''s pleasure-- for I suppose it IS a pleasure? |
4251 | It''s not much of a climb; will you feel equal to it?" |
4251 | It''s such a lonely place,"--and a slight tremor ran through me as I played a few soft chords--"What shall I sing to you?" |
4251 | Just to think that I am not merely wilful or rebellious in parting from you for a little while-- for if it is true--""If what is true?" |
4251 | Let the savage lusts and treacheries and cruelties of merely brutish and unspiritualised humanity bear witness? |
4251 | May I ask you to follow me?" |
4251 | May I go on?" |
4251 | May I say good- night?" |
4251 | My heart beat quickly as he spoke; something rose up in me like a response to a call, and I wondered-- Did he assume to master ME? |
4251 | Now they have come back into his possession--""Father, who told you all this?" |
4251 | Now we have talked enough about all these theories, which are not interesting to anyone who is not prepared to accept them-- shall we go up on deck?" |
4251 | Now, do you begin to understand?" |
4251 | O Soul that seekest the way to wisdom and to power, what dost thou make of Love?" |
4251 | O crown of my best manhood!--when wilt thou come to me?" |
4251 | O my genius!--my angel!--am I so hard to read?--so difficult to win?" |
4251 | Of Death? |
4251 | Of the''new form of matter''and the''radio- activity as a concomitant of the CHANGE OF FORM''? |
4251 | Of what avail then is the struggle of human life? |
4251 | Of what use, then, is the struggle we are for ever making in our narrow and limited daily lives to resist the wise and holy teaching of Nature? |
4251 | Oh, can you not see this in me?" |
4251 | Oh, what can I do to help you?" |
4251 | One of the reasons that made me so anxious to have you come on this trip with us is that you always seem contented and happy,--and I want to know why? |
4251 | Or foolish? |
4251 | Or would you, too, rather not see the sunset? |
4251 | Ought that to make any difference in my love for him? |
4251 | People often try to meet again and never do-- haven''t you noticed that? |
4251 | Perhaps you have met each other before?" |
4251 | Pity him? |
4251 | Presently she said:"Are you going on deck now?" |
4251 | Santoris?" |
4251 | Shall I go on with my own story, or have you heard enough?" |
4251 | Shall we go on deck now?" |
4251 | Shall we walk a little?" |
4251 | She is hysterical, of course,--but what has caused it? |
4251 | Should I never see him again, I wondered? |
4251 | Should I not hear? |
4251 | Should it be obeyed? |
4251 | Some think they are finding it--""You, for example?" |
4251 | Something cold seemed to send a shiver through my blood-- was it some stray fragment of memory from the past that stirred me to a sense of pain? |
4251 | Stay!--how foolish of me!--''a great part of my life''?--then what part of it? |
4251 | Such as--?" |
4251 | Suddenly Santoris spoke:"Now shall I tell you where we last met?" |
4251 | Surely in that case the terror would be my own fault, for why should I be afraid? |
4251 | Surely these are not barbarous beliefs?" |
4251 | Surely this was a sufficient proof that I was not forgotten by him who had professed to love me?--and that his aid might still be depended upon? |
4251 | Surely you see the connection?" |
4251 | Tell me where? |
4251 | Tell me, what are my''wicked theories''?" |
4251 | The moon and the sea?--or any other mystery as deep and incomprehensible?" |
4251 | The owner of the yacht, you mean?" |
4251 | The so- called''practical''person would have said to me:--''Why are you happy?'' |
4251 | The thing called Death being no more than a Living Change did it matter so much when or how the change was effected? |
4251 | Then the voice put this question--"Dost thou truly believe in God, thy Creator, the Maker of heaven and earth?" |
4251 | Then the voice spoke once more--"Dost thou believe in Love, the generator of Life and the moving Cause and Mind of all created things?" |
4251 | Then was it a real love that I felt, or merely a blind obedience to some hypnotic influence? |
4251 | Then where had I known luxury? |
4251 | Then you can return to your own home and forget--""Forget what?" |
4251 | Then, do you live as one convinced of it? |
4251 | There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body"? |
4251 | There was some actual danger in store for me, then? |
4251 | They spoke of rescue,--rescue from what? |
4251 | This was the end, then? |
4251 | To help you?" |
4251 | To that one I address myself and say: Will you, to begin with, drop your burden of preconceived opinions and prejudices, whatever they are? |
4251 | To the glittering rainbow strand Of Love''s enchanted land? |
4251 | True, I was locked up in my own room like a naughty child, but did it matter so very much? |
4251 | Unsuitable, to say the least of it?'' |
4251 | Was I not myselt the witness of his altered mind? |
4251 | Was this fearful suggestion a temptation or a test? |
4251 | Was_ I_''a faithful student''? |
4251 | We feared-- did we not?" |
4251 | We knew so little at the beginning, and we know so little now,--is it altogether our fault if we have lost our way?" |
4251 | What can I tell you?" |
4251 | What did it mean?--The yacht? |
4251 | What did they mean? |
4251 | What difference could a few years more or less bring, if we were bound, by the eternal laws governing us, to become united in the end? |
4251 | What do YOU think of him?" |
4251 | What do you say, Harland?" |
4251 | What do you say?" |
4251 | What do you say?" |
4251 | What do you think of the mystery now?" |
4251 | What does Life matter if Love be untrue? |
4251 | What have they really to do with us? |
4251 | What is Happiness? |
4251 | What is it to me that this person or that person approves or disapproves my actions? |
4251 | What is it you would have me do?" |
4251 | What is it? |
4251 | What is it? |
4251 | What is the primary object of Living? |
4251 | What is the problem solved by Dying? |
4251 | What mad idea has she got into her head about a murder?" |
4251 | What more could Faust desire than love?" |
4251 | What now?" |
4251 | What of him?" |
4251 | What path of the flashing sea Seems best for you and me? |
4251 | What time is it?" |
4251 | What view of the divine passion do they take as a rule? |
4251 | What was the cause? |
4251 | What yacht? |
4251 | What''s the use of our trying to encourage''health- working microbes''? |
4251 | What, after all, can I offer you? |
4251 | What, after all, could this Phantom-- if Phantom it were-- do to work me harm? |
4251 | When shall we attune our lives together in that harmonious chord which shall sound its music sweetly through eternity? |
4251 | When will you realise that there is no such thing as''coincidence''but only a very exact system of mathematics?" |
4251 | Where did the yacht go down?" |
4251 | Where had I heard those words? |
4251 | Where is Love?" |
4251 | Where is it satisfied? |
4251 | Where is she?" |
4251 | Where would it be? |
4251 | Which of us was to blame? |
4251 | Whither? |
4251 | Whither? |
4251 | Whither? |
4251 | Whither? |
4251 | Who asked you to count them or to consider them? |
4251 | Who can slay a hope but him in whose soul it was born? |
4251 | Who could, who WOULD live for ever quite alone in an eternity without love? |
4251 | Who frustrated any great ambition of yours but yourself? |
4251 | Who is it that darkens life with sorrow?--who is it that creates the delusion of death?" |
4251 | Who is it that so mistrusts the Divine order of the Universe as to doubt the ultimate intention of goodness in things which appear evil? |
4251 | Who is it that speaks of losing the way, when the way is, and has been and ever shall be, clear and plain?" |
4251 | Why art thou lost in a Silence without Song?" |
4251 | Why can not nations resolve on peace and amity, and if differences arise agree to settle them by arbitration? |
4251 | Why could I not let myself go? |
4251 | Why could I not speak frankly and tell him that I knew as well as he did that now there was no life anywhere for me where he was not? |
4251 | Why did I not give the fluttering spirit within me room to expand its wings? |
4251 | Why do you look so amazed? |
4251 | Why have the monstrous forces of Evolution thundered their way through cycles of creation to produce so infinitesimal a prodigy? |
4251 | Why is his existence judged to be necessary? |
4251 | Why not rather teach us how to die soon?" |
4251 | Why not? |
4251 | Why should I be disturbed by rumours, or frightened by ill report? |
4251 | Why should I doubt him? |
4251 | Why should I need rescue?" |
4251 | Why should he not cease to be? |
4251 | Why should she remain? |
4251 | Why should the word''fear''be mentioned, when there was no cause for fear of any kind? |
4251 | Why should you have conquered difficulties which we have still to overcome? |
4251 | Why should you, O Aselzion, teach us how to live long? |
4251 | Why, even with the underlying flattery of his words, should he call me a dreamer? |
4251 | Why, then, do I add an undesired note to the chorus of rejected appeal? |
4251 | Why? |
4251 | Will my leddy wear it for luck?" |
4251 | Will that be any comfort to you?" |
4251 | Will they solace you wholly, the days that were? |
4251 | Will you come to luncheon?" |
4251 | Will you detach yourself from your own private and particular surroundings for a space and agree to THINK with me? |
4251 | Will you ever get tired, I wonder?" |
4251 | Will you lift up your eyes between sadness and bliss, Meet mine and see where the great love is? |
4251 | Will you present me to the ladies?" |
4251 | Will you set aside the small cares and trifles that affect your own material personality? |
4251 | Will you try to forgive me?" |
4251 | Will you, for instance, think of Life? |
4251 | Would n''t Mr. Harland perhaps like to see her?" |
4251 | Would you tell Dr. Brayle that I shall be ready for him in ten minutes?" |
4251 | Wouldst thou also be a Christian? |
4251 | Wouldst thou have Eternal Life? |
4251 | YOU can ask that?" |
4251 | You are not afraid?" |
4251 | You are quite sure? |
4251 | You brought it with you this evening to show to me and ask my opinion of its value, did you not?" |
4251 | You do? |
4251 | You have not heard from Santoris?" |
4251 | You like him?" |
4251 | You may perhaps say that you yourselves have been sent by God-- but does Deity contradict Itself? |
4251 | You may probably say and you probably WILL say--"What does that matter to us? |
4251 | You say my ordeal is not over?" |
4251 | You understand?" |
4251 | You would not call it''strange''if the discovery made by Mr. Santoris were generally adopted?" |
4251 | You''re not anxious?" |
4251 | You''re sorry, I suppose?" |
4251 | Your apparent youth--""Oh, is it only''apparent''?" |
4251 | and Mr. Harland shook him warmly by the hand--"What time shall we start the race?" |
4251 | and can there be any real unhappiness so long as our Souls are in tune with the complete harmony of Creation? |
4251 | and the unhappy man threw up his hands with a gesture of desperation--"You, who profess to read thought and gauge the soul, can you ask? |
4251 | asked Santoris, with sudden sternness--"Harland, would you have me tell you ALL?" |
4251 | asked Santoris--"How is the pain?" |
4251 | exclaimed Catherine--"You mean unlucky?" |
4251 | he asked, very gently--"And may I show you the reasons why we meet again?" |
4251 | he asked--"How has life wronged you?" |
4251 | he asked--"Is there anything that so completely dominates the life of a man as the love of a woman? |
4251 | he asked--"Why not go with us back to Rothesay, for example?" |
4251 | he called to me--"Was it a good sunset?" |
4251 | he demanded--"Don''t you want to know his opinion?" |
4251 | he echoed--"What need I care for it? |
4251 | he queried--"Why do you not say that if women are half souls, men are the same,--and that the two halves must conjoin to make one? |
4251 | he said, softly--"What have you been thinking of? |
4251 | he said--"Are you beginning to remember the happiness we have so often thrown away for a trifle?" |
4251 | he said--"Are you not a prisoner in the House of Aselzion?" |
4251 | he said--"Could YOU cure her?" |
4251 | he said--"Did I not call you the princess of a fairy tale? |
4251 | he said--"Life is agreeable as long as it lasts--""Have you found it so?" |
4251 | he said--"Why did you not realise this ages ago? |
4251 | interpolated Catherine, feebly--"How could you, father?" |
4251 | interposed Captain Derrick--"Like your friend the''shentleman''? |
4251 | it asked--"when the way is, and has ever been, clear and plain? |
4251 | it demanded--"The Love of God?--or the Love of Self? |
4251 | it said--"To what end wilt thou adventure for the sake of Love?" |
4251 | its voice again enquired--"Wouldst thou bear all things and believe all things? |
4251 | murmured Miss Catherine, pleadingly--"What''s the good of making any enquiries to- night?" |
4251 | or''How will it affect ME?'' |
4251 | queried Mr. Harland--"Or simply life lastingness?" |
4251 | said Mr. Harland, breaking his silence at last--"But is n''t it rather late to pay a call? |
4251 | said the Voice,--"What is all thy searching and labour worth without Love? |
4251 | she exclaimed, hotly--"What right have you--""How can he call ME an atheist?" |
4251 | she repeated--"Have you not seen?--do you not know? |
4251 | she said, faintly--"I hope we have not offended you?" |
4251 | was it POSSIBLE to so sever them? |
56713 | ''A gentlemen''s or a ladies''school?'' 56713 ''Are you sure of this?'' |
56713 | ''I have a letter in my pocket from Mr. Beecher''s successor, if that is what you mean?'' 56713 ''What part of Brooklyn?'' |
56713 | A man, did you say? 56713 A penny for your thoughts?" |
56713 | A sprat to catch a mackerel, eh? |
56713 | A thousand pardons, but has not monsieur forgotten his pocket- book a few moments ago? |
56713 | Agency of Spirits, did you say? 56713 Ah, and what had he to say?" |
56713 | Ah, where would Paris be without its restaurants, and where would the restaurants be without their chefs? |
56713 | Am I to understand then that you are innocent of both these deeds? |
56713 | And Renée? |
56713 | And did he say anything to you, Marcel? |
56713 | And his name? |
56713 | And how am I to know when that is? |
56713 | And how does monsieur know it? |
56713 | And is not that a very delightful frame of mind to be in? |
56713 | And my wife? 56713 And pray, what was I doing there?" |
56713 | And the others? |
56713 | And then what will happen? |
56713 | And then? |
56713 | And what am I then? 56713 And what are you keeping for yourself, professor?" |
56713 | And what is your opinion about it all? |
56713 | And what town, may I ask, has been so fortunate as to claim mademoiselle as a citizen? |
56713 | And what will happen then? |
56713 | And where did you live, mademoiselle, if I may be so bold as to ask? |
56713 | And where do you hail from, Monsieur, I suppose you come from Paris judging from your accent? |
56713 | And you intend to get it almost immediately? |
56713 | Are all the people playing, and do they all play the same way? |
56713 | Are there any spirits present? |
56713 | Are these what you found in the envelope? |
56713 | Are you acquainted with the deceased? |
56713 | Are you fishing for compliments? |
56713 | Are you hurt? |
56713 | Are you ill? |
56713 | Are you not sarcastic, professor, or do you mean it? |
56713 | Are you perfectly sure of that? |
56713 | Are you prepared to swear this to me on oath? 56713 Are you quite sure he will not remember what has occurred?" |
56713 | Are you quite sure? |
56713 | Are you really so gone on her as all that? |
56713 | Are you serious, professor? |
56713 | Are you sure of this? |
56713 | Are you sure that he will go to heaven? |
56713 | Are you sure that it is necessary to do that? |
56713 | Are you sure you do n''t feel cold? |
56713 | Are you weary of the fight? 56713 At a future sitting Mr. Funk said to George,''Why could you not tell me his name right away?'' |
56713 | Beast,she hissed,"why did n''t you hold your silly tongue? |
56713 | Bien-- but is that all you intend to tell us? |
56713 | But are there no poisons which are beyond your powers to detect? |
56713 | But ca n''t you tell me of something which will defy detection even by means of your animals? |
56713 | But did n''t you try to find the fellow? |
56713 | But does it mean that we shall be separated again? |
56713 | But how are we to be sure that the mediums do not cheat? |
56713 | But how are we to obtain the convincing proof which you seek? |
56713 | But how could that have possibly been brought about? |
56713 | But how did you contrive to come here so early? 56713 But how did you possibly know of our engagement? |
56713 | But how do you account for the lock of hair? |
56713 | But how on earth is he able to know when he is not there to see? |
56713 | But how? 56713 But if they are so enormously valuable, why do you sell them at all?" |
56713 | But is Delapine really going to play at the Casino? |
56713 | But is the poor pig never allowed to have any of them? |
56713 | But suppose that she loves Delapine? |
56713 | But supposing, for the moment, that these phenomena were true,said Riche,"of what use are they? |
56713 | But surely you believe in a Divine Being? |
56713 | But surely, professor, you are not going to waste your time in playing at the Casino? |
56713 | But tell me, doctor, what proofs have they that he is not dead? |
56713 | But tell me, how are you, mother? 56713 But the motive-- the motive?" |
56713 | But what can have upset Renée so much as to make her cry like that? |
56713 | But what evidence is there,said Riche,"that these apparitions and marvellous phenomena really occur? |
56713 | But where is this prodigy to be found? |
56713 | But why did you call it the New Jerusalem? |
56713 | But why do you do it at all, Violette? 56713 But why suggest such things?" |
56713 | But will you love me very much? |
56713 | But you will give us the promised séance at our next party? |
56713 | But, Doctor, if he is not really dead, you wo n''t surely allow him to be buried, will you? |
56713 | But, before I begin, perhaps monsieur will settle my little account? |
56713 | But, father, do you really mean it? |
56713 | But, monsieur, how is one to know what a word means if it may imply anything and everything? |
56713 | By the way, have you no friends at all who can help you, mon ami? |
56713 | By the way, have you noticed a General in full uniform in the hotel? |
56713 | By the way, ladies and gentlemen,said the professor,"what do you say to a little music? |
56713 | By the way, mademoiselle, did Delapine ever give you any packets or letters to take care of for him? |
56713 | By the way, monsieur, where did you live in Buenos Aires? |
56713 | By the way, what has become of Delapine? 56713 By the way, wo n''t you take a glass of port?" |
56713 | By the way,said the General,"I do n''t suppose you''ll have any objection to joining me in a glass of wine? |
56713 | Can I depend on you? |
56713 | Can I do anything more for madame? |
56713 | Can you describe the man? |
56713 | Can you explain how you managed to play? |
56713 | Can you give us the recipe? |
56713 | Can you keep a secret? |
56713 | Can you perceive anyone besides us, professor? |
56713 | Can you recommend me a good text book to commence my studies with? |
56713 | Certainly, my dear fellow, but why the word''serious''? |
56713 | Certainly, why not? |
56713 | Cheating at the tables, what do you mean? |
56713 | Comment ça va, monsieur le docteur? 56713 Confound that fellow,"said Payot, shaking his fist at the retreating carriage of the General,"what did he mean by running away with that concession? |
56713 | Could you find out nothing more? |
56713 | Delapine? 56713 Did he fall down the steps then?" |
56713 | Did he pick the lock, or had you forgotten to shut the door when you went the time before? |
56713 | Did he refer in any way to his fight with you? |
56713 | Did the lady look like this? |
56713 | Did you hear what he said, doctor? |
56713 | Did you notice anything peculiar about Pierre Duval''s manner? |
56713 | Did you notice my fingers jerking? |
56713 | Did you really play the piano? |
56713 | Did you recognise him, professor? |
56713 | Did you say vulgar? |
56713 | Dis donc, mon cher Marcel, what is that you are saying about a flock of parrots? |
56713 | Do n''t you believe in a hell and eternal damnation? |
56713 | Do n''t you feel well? |
56713 | Do n''t you know anyone else-- come now think? |
56713 | Do n''t you remember Delapine''s words when he hypnotised him? |
56713 | Do n''t you remember he told Renée that when he recovered he intended to dictate his memoirs? |
56713 | Do you always succeed in detecting the poison? |
56713 | Do you believe in God? |
56713 | Do you have to shake him, or what do you do? |
56713 | Do you hear me? 56713 Do you imagine for a moment that the jury will believe that story? |
56713 | Do you know if anyone called to see her before that hour? |
56713 | Do you know the number of the watch? |
56713 | Do you mean to say he is not dead then? |
56713 | Do you mean to say that you employ all these things? |
56713 | Do you mean to say that you knew that father had been storming at me and hit me? |
56713 | Do you mean to tell me that Delapine has been here during the whole of the last hour? |
56713 | Do you mean to tell me that you require me to muzzle your mouth with gold in order to secure your silence? |
56713 | Do you mean to tell me that you were ordered by the Parquet to make a post- mortem examination, and you do n''t know whether he is dead or not? 56713 Do you notice Delapine''s fingers?" |
56713 | Do you notice that rather handsome young man with fair curly hair, and a pointed glossy beard just standing behind her? |
56713 | Do you really love me, George? |
56713 | Do you really mean it, professor? 56713 Do you really mean it? |
56713 | Do you really mean to say that Henri is back again, and that he will be the same old darling he was before? |
56713 | Do you really mean to say that this blessed mine is going to cost us £ 120,000 a year to keep going? 56713 Do you really think he will ever forgive me?" |
56713 | Do you really think she will let me put it on her finger? |
56713 | Do you see that steep stony path near the funicular railway leading down the hill from La Turbie? |
56713 | Do you see that? |
56713 | Do you suffer pain like you used to so often, mother? |
56713 | Do you think Pierre has had anything to do with this? |
56713 | Does he suppose that I, a General of the French army, am to be kept waiting by a mere servant? |
56713 | Does monsieur wish to insult me then? |
56713 | Does n''t he remind you of a Bengal tiger lying in ambush and turning his head slowly round to watch the movements of his prey? 56713 Does your heart ache, Renée dear? |
56713 | Dr. Villebois, are you there? 56713 Eh, what was that I heard about a letter that the professor managed to read without seeing it?" |
56713 | Entonces usted es Porteno? |
56713 | Excuse me,said Pierre,"but where were you half an hour ago?" |
56713 | For example? |
56713 | For good, mother? 56713 François,"he added in a hoarse whisper,"not a word, not a word of what I do, do you hear me?" |
56713 | Good God,he said to himself,"however could the police have found it out? |
56713 | Good,replied Payot,"and then?" |
56713 | Half an hour ago,said Monsieur Biron, astonished;"but what could have killed him?" |
56713 | Has anyone seen him? |
56713 | Has he ordered any arrest to be made? |
56713 | Has monsieur endured this calamity for long? |
56713 | Has monsieur got many? |
56713 | Have I not been by your side off and on ever since I left you, my child? 56713 Have I not put it clearly then?" |
56713 | Have I not said enough? |
56713 | Have any thieves got into the house? |
56713 | Have n''t you finished with that place yet? 56713 Have n''t you made enough already?" |
56713 | Have you a letter for me? |
56713 | Have you any further orders, sir? |
56713 | Have you anything left? |
56713 | Have you been to see''Les Fiançailles Forcées''which has just been put on at the Vaudeville? |
56713 | Have you been to the comédie lately? |
56713 | Have you ever heard the story of the Widow''s Mite? |
56713 | Have you ever lent the key to anybody? |
56713 | Have you examined his arms, monsieur? |
56713 | Have you lived a long time in Paris, mademoiselle? |
56713 | Have you lost your senses? 56713 Have you never seen her since?" |
56713 | Have you nothing else to tell me? 56713 Have you then so soon forgotten what I told you?" |
56713 | He told Renée and me so, did n''t he, Renée? |
56713 | How can I prove that you are correct? |
56713 | How can you be so cruel as to laugh at me, Jean,she said to her husband,"when you see me insulted like this? |
56713 | How could Pierre have done it? 56713 How could he, when we could not inform him who the culprit was? |
56713 | How dare you disobey your father''s wishes? |
56713 | How dare you take a mean advantage of me like that? 56713 How dare you trifle with me in this manner? |
56713 | How dare you? 56713 How did he get in?" |
56713 | How did you manage it, professor? |
56713 | How do you do, Payot? |
56713 | How do you know that? |
56713 | How do you know that? |
56713 | How do you mean, discuss? |
56713 | How do you shy at the tables? |
56713 | How long has he been in that state? |
56713 | How was the fellow dressed? |
56713 | Hullo, Pierre my boy, where have you been? |
56713 | Hullo, what on earth are you doing with that Venus''s fly- trap? |
56713 | Hullo,he cried,"what''s this?" |
56713 | I am sure these gentlemen will not mind, and I know she wants to know the worst, do n''t you, Renée? |
56713 | I have already told you so,said Villebois,"Do you doubt my word?" |
56713 | I have the honour to address Monsieur le Docteur Villebois, I presume? |
56713 | I hope it is not too chilly for you out here? 56713 I hope it is nothing serious, my dear Marcel? |
56713 | I hope the business proved satisfactory? |
56713 | I hope,continued Delapine,"you have sold your property and shares to the best advantage, and realized enough money to pay off your liabilities?" |
56713 | I must have it-- I mean, may I bring it to you? |
56713 | I presume I have the distinguished honour and good fortune to address M. Felix Payot, am I correct? |
56713 | I say, Marcel,said Riche,"who is that charming young lady I saw you chatting with just now?" |
56713 | I say, professor, where have you sprung from? |
56713 | I suppose that Renée will consent to marry Pierre? |
56713 | I suppose you are going into the Casino? |
56713 | I suppose you have come in obedience to my request? |
56713 | I suppose you think that is the proper way to call on gentlemen of my rank in the evening, is it? |
56713 | I suppose you wish to have time to warn Pierre? |
56713 | I suppose,he said,"you are living by yourself just now?" |
56713 | I think it would be more accurate to say that the music kept time with my fingers, eh? |
56713 | I think we will sit up to- night and watch him, what do you say to that, Riche? |
56713 | I trust you have fully recovered from your indisposition of the last evening? |
56713 | I wonder whether Delapine will be able to do it? 56713 I wonder who he can have in his mind? |
56713 | I wonder,he said, as a sudden thought occurred to him,"what made the two doctors stop you in such a hurry? |
56713 | I wonder,said Marcel,"why the conservatory blinds are drawn?" |
56713 | I? 56713 If it will please monsieur to pay me----""Pay you for what?" |
56713 | In fact why should we have a body at all? |
56713 | In what way? |
56713 | In your father''s wine- cellar? 56713 Is Monsieur Pierre at home?" |
56713 | Is Villebois on the telephone? |
56713 | Is he ill, or in a trance, or what? |
56713 | Is it likely that I, your own son, would dream of doing mad acts like that? 56713 Is it not exactly like yours?" |
56713 | Is it really true... what can it mean? |
56713 | Is it so serious then? |
56713 | Is it very serious? |
56713 | Is that really your opinion? |
56713 | Is that you, Henri? |
56713 | Is that you, darling mother? |
56713 | Is there any purpose in our being born in a frail body like this? |
56713 | Is this the room where the tragedy took place? |
56713 | Is this the way you repay me for all my love and affection? 56713 Is this your watch?" |
56713 | Listen, this is what he says:Is it raining little sister? |
56713 | Look here, Roux, do you see this little bottle? |
56713 | Look here, father,he said after a pause,"ca n''t we get old Villebois to tell the professor he has to leave the house at once?" |
56713 | Mademoiselle requires that I dress her? |
56713 | Mademoiselle will permit that I may regard it, n''est ce pas? 56713 Marie, what do you mean? |
56713 | May I be permitted to look at him? |
56713 | May I not be allowed to receive it from your fair hands? |
56713 | May I take a photograph with a flashlight? |
56713 | May n''t I come with you? |
56713 | May we accompany you? |
56713 | May we come and see you at once? |
56713 | Me? 56713 Mon Dieu, but why did n''t you tell me all this before?" |
56713 | Mon Dieu, what is this? |
56713 | Mon Dieu,cried out Riche,"Try again, mademoiselle, can you see anything else?" |
56713 | Monsieur le Commissaire de Police with two sergeants have arrived, and demand admittance in the name of the law; what am I to do? |
56713 | Mother dear, wo n''t you give me some keepsake? |
56713 | My God,said Payot,"how did you learn all these things?" |
56713 | My dear Delapine,said Riche,"you surely do not believe in clairvoyance, thought- reading, telepathy, apparitions, and all that sort of thing?" |
56713 | My dear General, how can you ask such a question? 56713 My dear Marcel, what is the matter with your eye?" |
56713 | My dear Villebois, would you mind touching the bell? |
56713 | My dear child, what does that matter? 56713 My dear child, whatever is the matter with you? |
56713 | My dear father, what on earth are you talking about? 56713 My dear little girl, why do you worry your pretty head over such things? |
56713 | My dear,she whispered to her husband,"how could you invite an infidel to our house who does not believe in anything?" |
56713 | My fight with Marcel? 56713 My name? |
56713 | My poor little Pinson, what would you do without your Renée? |
56713 | My vot, sir? 56713 Nonsense,"cried Renée,"you surely do n''t mean to say he wants to injure Delapine?" |
56713 | Not even in the dependent parts? |
56713 | Not of much consequence, you idiot? 56713 Nothing to wear? |
56713 | Now, sir, once for all, did you or did you not kill Delapine, and set fire to Villebois''s house? |
56713 | Now,said the professor to his friend Payot,"do you still doubt my powers? |
56713 | O go on, Tennyson did n''t really write that, did he? |
56713 | Of course I do; what else could it be? |
56713 | Of course, I like pretty frocks, what girl does n''t? 56713 Oh fie, so you''ve been over there to see the pretty bird in its cage, have you? |
56713 | Oh, Renée, ma chérie,she called out,"whatever is the matter with you? |
56713 | Oh, but you surely do not mean to go there to play at the tables? |
56713 | Oh, doctor, how could I? 56713 Oh, doctor, tell me quickly, what is the matter?" |
56713 | Oh, father, why ca n''t you leave me alone to be happy in my own way? 56713 Oh, father, why do you ask me such ridiculous questions?" |
56713 | Oh, madame, how can you be so cruel? 56713 Oh, papa,"she cried,"whatever shall we do, is n''t it dreadful? |
56713 | Oh, this cruel, cruel world,she said to herself,"why can not they leave people alone to enjoy themselves?" |
56713 | Oh, this wretched ring how am I to get it off? |
56713 | Oh, you are referring to her not coming down to dinner? |
56713 | One of the firemen who assisted in extinguishing the flames-- am I right in my suspicions? |
56713 | Only a trifle? |
56713 | Out of date? 56713 Pardon, monsieur, who told you that?" |
56713 | Pierre, I ask you for the last time, do you still persist in your statement that it is all a lie? |
56713 | Please leave me,she said in a scarcely audible voice,"and do n''t allow anyone to see me on any pretence whatever, do you understand? |
56713 | Professor, you are a wonder, but how in the name of all that is marvellous did you manage to read it? 56713 Pulling ze vot?" |
56713 | Really, is that a fact? |
56713 | Regardez- la, monsieur,he said to Villebois whom he knew by sight, holding up some of the half- burnt shavings,"do n''t you smell the naphtha?" |
56713 | Remember what I have said, for I shall not be able to help you, although I shall be with you always-- what could Henri mean? |
56713 | Renée dear, may I be your protector? 56713 Renée, ma chérie,"she said,"why are you lying on the bed? |
56713 | Renée, ma mie, it is terrible to see you like this, what can the mystery be? 56713 Riche, come here,"said Villebois, looking at Delapine,"do you notice anything unusual about him?" |
56713 | Riche,he called out as a sudden idea struck him,"my nerves are so unstrung I feel I need a drop of cognac; will you share a liqueur with me?" |
56713 | Riche? |
56713 | Robert,he thundered,"what the devil does this mean? |
56713 | Sacr-- r-- re bleu? |
56713 | Shall I join you soon, mother? |
56713 | Shall we go? |
56713 | Since I am unable to play and sing to Mademoiselle, may I perhaps have the great pleasure of hearing her play and sing to me? |
56713 | So you have the money ready? |
56713 | Surely you know what''shy''means? |
56713 | Tell me quickly, have you found out who could have stolen the liquid? 56713 Tell me, what is it?" |
56713 | Tell me,he said,"what was the fluid which the fellow injected into the professor''s arm?" |
56713 | Thank you so much, Céleste, and look here, dear, when we are married you must come and stay weeks and weeks with us, wo n''t you? |
56713 | That reminds me, do you remember our discussions in the little room on the third floor at the corner of the Rue Saint André des Arts? |
56713 | That reminds me,said Paul,"wo n''t you take something? |
56713 | That''s the very reason we have come, mon ami,said Roux;"but first let me ask you what the Commissaire de Police has done?" |
56713 | The finest thing that could have happened? 56713 The next day Mr. Funk called in the cashier and said''Do you remember an old coin called"The Widow''s Mite"which we used for the Dictionary?'' |
56713 | The red ribbon of a Chevalier of the Legion of Honour, eh? 56713 Then he asked George again,''Can you tell me to whom I have to return it?'' |
56713 | Then how will you find the money? |
56713 | Then you mean to say that he really has been murdered? |
56713 | Then you will trust me, wo n''t you? |
56713 | There you are,he replied,"what did I tell you? |
56713 | There, Dr. Roux, what do you make of that? |
56713 | Villebois, mon ami,said Delapine,"will you oblige me by ringing the bell once more?" |
56713 | Was he finishing his coffee, or what? |
56713 | Was it not enough to frighten me to death? |
56713 | We must find an answer to the questions put by the immortal Heine:Sagt mir was bedeutet der Mensch? |
56713 | Well then, ca n''t we send Renée away somewhere? 56713 Well then, might not the light interfere with the success of the phenomena of a séance in the same way? |
56713 | Well, Delapine, mon brave, how is it that you are here so early? |
56713 | Well, and pray who are you, and what do you want to see me about at this time in the evening? |
56713 | Well, do you notice where it leads to? |
56713 | Well, gentlemen, what do you say to our all going to bed? |
56713 | Well, gentlemen, what is the crime you charge us with? |
56713 | Well, how in the name of heaven could he know all this? 56713 Well, is n''t it possible to get Payot to forbid her speaking to the professor?" |
56713 | Well, mon ami, how has the world been treating you since I saw you last? |
56713 | Well, monsieur le docteur, you have not forgotten me then? |
56713 | Well, my child, have you made up your mind yet? |
56713 | Well, well, surely there are some decent ones left? |
56713 | Well, well, we shall see n''est- ce pas? |
56713 | Well, what brings you here? |
56713 | Well, what do you make of it? |
56713 | Well, you remember Delapine? |
56713 | Well,said Delapine,"and did our friend wake up?" |
56713 | Well,said Delapine,"are you satisfied now?" |
56713 | Well,said Delapine,"what brings you here in such a state of excitement?" |
56713 | What a splendid evening to be sure, how I do enjoy these moonlight nights, do n''t you? |
56713 | What are ten million worlds compared with thee? 56713 What are you doing here?" |
56713 | What are you doing with those two gentlemen? |
56713 | What are you gentlemen doing here, you, Villebois, and you, Riche? 56713 What are you staring at, you idiot?" |
56713 | What are you thinking of, my dear professor? |
56713 | What are you thinking of, my son? 56713 What are you two people talking about?" |
56713 | What can have caused the fire? |
56713 | What did you say that gentleman''s name was who is arguing with our friend the poet? |
56713 | What did you say? 56713 What do you like best among the arts?" |
56713 | What do you mean by occasions like this? 56713 What do you mean, mother?" |
56713 | What do you mean, professor? |
56713 | What do you mean? |
56713 | What do you mean? |
56713 | What do you think about him? |
56713 | What do you think of that, mon cher, for a gold mine? 56713 What do you want it for?" |
56713 | What do you want? |
56713 | What does that mean? |
56713 | What has kept you so long, Céleste? |
56713 | What has made you change your mind so quickly? |
56713 | What have I done with it? 56713 What have those Allemands done?" |
56713 | What have you been doing to your head? |
56713 | What have you been doing with yourself for the last hour? |
56713 | What is amusing you? |
56713 | What is his little game now? |
56713 | What is it, what is it? |
56713 | What is that? |
56713 | What is the matter with Delapine? |
56713 | What is the matter with him? |
56713 | What is the matter with you, are you mad? |
56713 | What is the matter? |
56713 | What is the matter? |
56713 | What is the matter? |
56713 | What is the matter? |
56713 | What is the matter? |
56713 | What is the meaning of this? |
56713 | What is the nature of this impulse? |
56713 | What is the town still further away on our right? |
56713 | What is your name and address? |
56713 | What is your name? |
56713 | What is your recipe for happiness, doctor? |
56713 | What makes you think that he has been killed? 56713 What makes you think that?" |
56713 | What name could be more appropriate? 56713 What number would you like the ball to fall into?" |
56713 | What on earth are you talking about? |
56713 | What on earth can Henri have done,she asked herself,"to have effected such a wonderful change in my father? |
56713 | What on earth do you mean, my child? |
56713 | What on earth do you want this menagerie for? |
56713 | What on earth is he up to? |
56713 | What on earth is the matter with him? |
56713 | What on earth is the matter? |
56713 | What on earth is this huge crowd here for? |
56713 | What service may I have the pleasure to render you? |
56713 | What shall I play, Monsieur Delapine? |
56713 | What the devil do you mean, sir? 56713 What time was it when you found her crying?" |
56713 | What was it again? 56713 What were you doing in Delapine''s house to overhear this conversation? |
56713 | What were you doing there, if it is not a rude question? |
56713 | What will you accept now to reveal your system to me? |
56713 | What!--what did you say, doctor? 56713 What''s the matter, doctor?" |
56713 | What''s the matter? |
56713 | What''s the matter? |
56713 | What''s up? 56713 What, something happened to Renée?" |
56713 | What, that youthful professor who gave such a wonderful course of lectures on physics in the laboratory at the Sorbonne? |
56713 | What, when we nearly came to blows over our differences of opinion about what you were pleased to call mysterious psychic forces? 56713 What,"cried Riche, bounding up from his seat as if he had been shot,"did you say it was sealed?" |
56713 | What? 56713 What? |
56713 | What? 56713 What?" |
56713 | Whatever are you laughing at? |
56713 | When did he find this envelope? |
56713 | When was it built, Henri? |
56713 | Where am I? |
56713 | Where are we going when the rest of the party returns? |
56713 | Where are we now? |
56713 | Where did you get that from, Marcel? |
56713 | Where did you meet her? |
56713 | Where do the plungers come in, professor? |
56713 | Where is the professor? |
56713 | Where shall I drive to now? |
56713 | Where shall I drive to? |
56713 | Where shall I drive to? |
56713 | Where, where? |
56713 | Where? |
56713 | Which class does she belong to? |
56713 | Which of the two is the greater man? |
56713 | Who are you, sir, that you speak to me in this way, and forbid me to obey my orders? |
56713 | Who? 56713 Whoever said such nonsense?" |
56713 | Whoever would have thought of it, but tell us, how did you manage to know where we were? |
56713 | Whoever would have thought that the coffee would have had such an effect? |
56713 | Whom did you say? |
56713 | Whom do you refer to? |
56713 | Whom have we the honour of addressing? |
56713 | Why did you not bring me this before? |
56713 | Why did you put a red screen round the lamp, and turn the light down low like that? |
56713 | Why did you take her photograph? |
56713 | Why do you always take Monsieur Marcel''s part? |
56713 | Why do you ask? |
56713 | Why do you develop your photographic plate in the dark and not in broad daylight? |
56713 | Why do you sigh? |
56713 | Why do you surround yourself with such thick white stuff? |
56713 | Why do you think so? |
56713 | Why is he going to Beaulieu of all places in the world? |
56713 | Why not? 56713 Why not? |
56713 | Why not? 56713 Why not?" |
56713 | Why not? |
56713 | Why not? |
56713 | Why not? |
56713 | Why, you surely do n''t mean Mademoiselle Beaupaire? |
56713 | Why? 56713 Why?" |
56713 | Will he ever get the use of it again? |
56713 | Will you always love me, Henri? 56713 Will you take some more whisky, professor?" |
56713 | Wo n''t you accompany her? |
56713 | Would mademoiselle like the blue trimmed with black velvet? 56713 Would you like me to look into it for you? |
56713 | Yes, what of it? |
56713 | Yes, who are you? |
56713 | Yes, who can tell? |
56713 | Yes, why do you ask? |
56713 | You can trust me, ca n''t you? |
56713 | You did n''t mean to do it, then why did you do so? 56713 You do n''t suppose I am going to give away the source of all my jokes to you?" |
56713 | You do n''t surely mean-- that he is dead? |
56713 | You insulted me at Maxim''s Café only a short time ago-- do you remember the scene? 56713 You know him well, do you not?" |
56713 | You love your father, do n''t you? |
56713 | You silly boy, how can you? 56713 You will be sure and come, wo n''t you?" |
56713 | You? |
56713 | [ 5]Do we not find Marian Capella at the beginning of the Christian era mentioning Mind as being the fifth or fundamental element? |
56713 | ''"[ 8]"Are these wonderful phenomena described in books?" |
56713 | ''Go''may mean''to die,''as in the phrase( he is going)--to succeed( the scheme did not go)--to fare( how goes it?) |
56713 | ''How could light penetrate opaque screens?'' |
56713 | ''Stop, in Heaven''s name, stop,''he cried,''do you want to commit murder?'' |
56713 | A chance, mon ami, to have a husband like my son can only come to her once in a lifetime, n''est- ce pas?" |
56713 | A few minutes afterwards his quarry appeared, and Emile, walking up to him, hat in hand:"Excuse me sir, are you Monsieur Marcel?" |
56713 | Again, how could the medium know from Mr. Funk''s mind that he had not returned it, when he was certain that he had done so? |
56713 | Ah,"he said as he rose to leave,"you are admiring my watch- chain? |
56713 | And after that what shall we suggest? |
56713 | And again, why should the leaves reopen the very moment that the plant has had a sufficient meal? |
56713 | And how could he have pointed out the exact spot where the coin was to be found, a spot where no one ever dreamt of looking for it? |
56713 | And of course you felt it your duty to suspend operations?" |
56713 | And pray, where is madame?" |
56713 | And what am I then? |
56713 | And what are you here for?" |
56713 | And what, pray, is the nature of this urgent business that calls him away at this time of day I should like to know?" |
56713 | Are the honourable members agreed? |
56713 | Are we to doubt a thing merely because it is contrary to our experience? |
56713 | Are you aware of the seriousness of this charge?" |
56713 | Are you aware that they happen to be particular friends of mine, and belong to the Embassy? |
56713 | Are you aware, professor, that Pierre attempted to murder you by injecting a subtle poison into your arm?" |
56713 | Are you blind to your own interests? |
56713 | Are you mad or what?" |
56713 | Are you not satisfied?" |
56713 | Are you very happy?" |
56713 | Are you without a spark of gratitude? |
56713 | Armand?" |
56713 | Besides, did n''t he point out to us the fallacies of their systems?" |
56713 | But it looks favourable, does n''t it? |
56713 | But tell me, are these psychic forces part of the same system?" |
56713 | But tell us what the parrots had to do in the matter?" |
56713 | But the imposture sans motif? |
56713 | But what could he be doing in the territory of the Prince of Monte Carlo, which does not belong to Italy, and how could he possibly know us?" |
56713 | But what did they mean? |
56713 | But what does it mean?" |
56713 | But what the deuce did that fellow want in my cellar? |
56713 | But where has he gone to?" |
56713 | But why have you changed your mind at the last moment?" |
56713 | But wo n''t you have a bed made up here?" |
56713 | But, not a word, not a word, eh, professor?" |
56713 | But, tell me, what did you do to her to put her in such a rage?" |
56713 | By the way, I think you said you had taken to writing poetry?" |
56713 | By the way, Riche, did you find out the whereabouts of that gentleman I sent you to follow out of the Casino?" |
56713 | By the way, Villebois, how is the General getting on?" |
56713 | By the way, did you shut the door when you left?" |
56713 | By the way, professor, now that we are all here quietly, will you give us an exhibition of your thought- reading powers?" |
56713 | C''est entendue?" |
56713 | CHAPTER XI A REMARKABLE CONVERSATION"Who will absolve you bad Christians? |
56713 | Ca n''t you give me any hope?" |
56713 | Ca n''t you recognise me?" |
56713 | Ca n''t you see that I am arranging a marriage for you which will at once introduce you into all the best circles in Paris? |
56713 | Can it not be a simple case of heart failure?" |
56713 | Can that struggle be in vain? |
56713 | Can you account for it, doctor?" |
56713 | Can you explain it to me, doctor?" |
56713 | Could anything tell a tale better? |
56713 | Delapine?" |
56713 | Delapine?" |
56713 | Developed into an exponent of psychic forces has he? |
56713 | Did any of them bid adieu to life in the superb manner of Vatel? |
56713 | Did he leave any message?" |
56713 | Did n''t you get my letter, Renée, in which I pointed it all out to you, and entreated you not to allow me to be touched or buried?" |
56713 | Did n''t you hear him tell us he would?" |
56713 | Did n''t you hear of it? |
56713 | Did not England become a Protestant country simply because the Pope refused to allow Henry the Eighth to divorce his wife Katherine?" |
56713 | Did they think he was not dead?" |
56713 | Did you not see me send your daughter into the library to work the bellows?" |
56713 | Did you not see when she sat down that she gave a little sigh? |
56713 | Do n''t you agree with me?" |
56713 | Do n''t you agree with me?" |
56713 | Do n''t you see that this contained the liquid which the fellow injected into Delapine''s arm? |
56713 | Do n''t you smell something?" |
56713 | Do n''t you think so, mon docteur?" |
56713 | Do n''t you think, papa, that the professor must have some wonderful power of seeing into the future? |
56713 | Do you consider it a really safe speculation?" |
56713 | Do you expect me to pay over four louis for those worthless flowers? |
56713 | Do you hear me? |
56713 | Do you hear me?" |
56713 | Do you hear what I say?" |
56713 | Do you insinuate that I murdered the professor? |
56713 | Do you mean Professor Henri Delapine of the Sorbonne?" |
56713 | Do you mean that Henri is alive?" |
56713 | Do you mean to say that you actually have it here, in your portfolio?" |
56713 | Do you mean to say that you have pacified her?" |
56713 | Do you not approve?" |
56713 | Do you really mean it?" |
56713 | Do you remember pinning the orchid in my button- hole to- day?" |
56713 | Do you remember the passage I have just quoted?" |
56713 | Do you remember what the envelope looked like?" |
56713 | Do you see that great isolated rock towards Nice, standing out all by itself surmounted by a great ivy- coloured castle? |
56713 | Do you see this ear?" |
56713 | Do you see with Röntgen Rays?" |
56713 | Do you suppose a mother can ever forget her daughter?" |
56713 | Do you take me for a damned fool or what?" |
56713 | Do you think you can get me the concession for flotation?" |
56713 | Do you think, Marie, that he will tell you all this for a small pourboire?" |
56713 | Does he take me for a robber? |
56713 | Does not Almanni say''Le cose victate fan crescere la voglia?'' |
56713 | Eh, doctor?" |
56713 | Even when I am old and wrinkled?" |
56713 | FOOTNOTES:[ Footnote 22:"Oh, tell me now what meaning has man, Or whence he comes, and whither he goes, Who dwells beyond upon the golden stars?"] |
56713 | FOOTNOTES:[ Footnote 9: Ah, who will give the lost one her vanished dream of bliss?] |
56713 | Father, what are you doing? |
56713 | Feel its weight, sir, eh?" |
56713 | For instance, you may ask me what is light, or electricity, or magnetism, or gravity, or matter even? |
56713 | Garçon,"he said, after table d''hote was over,"bring me the evening paper-- are there any good plays at the theatre to- night?" |
56713 | Get out, I say, do you hear me?" |
56713 | Get up this instant, do you hear me, sir?" |
56713 | Good God,"he suddenly exclaimed,"can it be possible?" |
56713 | Grey Mullets Meunière, or do you prefer Escalopes de Mostele écossaise just brought in fresh this morning, with a little dry hock? |
56713 | Had Payot seen her smile? |
56713 | Had n''t we better rouse him up?" |
56713 | Has anyone told you?" |
56713 | Has he become a Medium I wonder? |
56713 | Has she no natural affection left I wonder? |
56713 | Have I not toiled all these years to give you, my only child, a fortune and a position? |
56713 | Have n''t you seen it? |
56713 | Have you carried out my instructions and obtained information from Dr. Villebois''s servants?" |
56713 | Have you ever read Dumas Fils''''La Dame aux Camelias''? |
56713 | Have you no feelings left?" |
56713 | How can you ask me to marry such a brute?" |
56713 | How can you provide a dot out of your slender income?" |
56713 | How can you say such dreadful things? |
56713 | How could Delapine marry her when she was without a sou? |
56713 | How could any girl be insensible to his charms with his wealth and his talents? |
56713 | How could he face poverty with its lean fleshless hands and sunken eyes, the single, cold, comfortless room, and the pangs of hunger? |
56713 | How could it be possible? |
56713 | How could she earn her living except as a despised and pitied governess? |
56713 | How dare you sit down in the presence of a General of the French army, and without leave too? |
56713 | How dare you take liberties with men? |
56713 | How does one body attract another at a distance, with nothing but the invisible and intangible Ether between them? |
56713 | How else could he possibly guess what was going to happen to him?" |
56713 | How long has he been dead?" |
56713 | How much?" |
56713 | How on earth is the ordinary person to learn it?" |
56713 | How then are we to account for this revelation except by some intelligence on the other side of the Veil?" |
56713 | How? |
56713 | How? |
56713 | How? |
56713 | I am here as his friend if----""If what?" |
56713 | I am sure that you had something horrid on your mind, because as soon as I had gone you rose and locked the door; you can not deny it, can you?" |
56713 | I can not remember anything; have I been ill, or what has happened?" |
56713 | I have it in my portfolio?" |
56713 | I know there was some other reason, now was n''t there?" |
56713 | I see it is nearly dinner time; will you have dinner with me? |
56713 | I suppose it was a common thief coming to steal my wines, eh? |
56713 | I suppose you have come here for the pigeon match?" |
56713 | I suppose you have still kept the house?" |
56713 | I want to know if you have any clue as to the man who injected the fluid into Professor Delapine''s arm?" |
56713 | I wish to hear from your own lips; is it true or not?" |
56713 | I wonder what his serious play will be like?" |
56713 | I wonder whether Renée''s strange conduct had anything to do with his coming? |
56713 | I would not have been the cause of this accident for worlds, is that not so, my good friend Marcel? |
56713 | If I might trespass on your kindness, and ask you to drive me?" |
56713 | If the one can be formed in twenty years, why not the other in twenty seconds? |
56713 | If the performers were not tricksters could they not show these things in full daylight?" |
56713 | In God''s name what more can you want? |
56713 | Is his soul destroyed outright or does it escape unaltered and manifest itself in other surroundings? |
56713 | Is it because I refuse to marry a man I detest?" |
56713 | Is it dissipated into illimitable space and lost for ever? |
56713 | Is it just to assert that a man must be bereft of his senses who believes in it, and has the courage to announce it publicly? |
56713 | Is it not superb?" |
56713 | Is it possible that her father or young Pierre could have said anything to her?" |
56713 | Is n''t it the truth, Villebois?" |
56713 | Is n''t that so, Monsieur Duval?" |
56713 | Is n''t that your opinion, Mademoiselle Renée?" |
56713 | Is n''t that your opinion?" |
56713 | Is not that a proof of mind, eh? |
56713 | Is not that your opinion?" |
56713 | Is that a lie also?" |
56713 | Is that not so, baron?" |
56713 | Is that well understood?" |
56713 | Is the soul too subtle for the senses to perceive, or is it only seen when it acts through our bodies?" |
56713 | Is there not some poet who says,''Beauty lends enchantment to the view''?" |
56713 | It is a dream-- a dream, n''est- ce pas? |
56713 | It is really very touching, n''est- ce pas?" |
56713 | Just suppose that they came and killed me in my bed, what would become of me then? |
56713 | Just think of it? |
56713 | Just to see if it will tell us something of your past, or what has happened to you, or some of your friends perhaps?" |
56713 | Let go, do you hear me?" |
56713 | Let me see, now what about Marcel? |
56713 | May I ask if you are going to Monte Carlo to play?" |
56713 | May I substitute for the word''legs,''''inferior extremities,''or lower limbs?" |
56713 | Mon Dieu, what are we to do?" |
56713 | My dear doctor, seeing that both he and his father have been guests at our house what could we do? |
56713 | My dear madame, surely you must be dreaming? |
56713 | N''est ce pas, p''tit papa?" |
56713 | New Jerusalem-- descending from Heaven-- gates of pearls-- streets of shining gold-- my mine to a T. What could be finer as an illustration? |
56713 | No? |
56713 | Novels?" |
56713 | Now what do you consider a fair return for doing me this service?" |
56713 | Of course she may have had a real headache, but people do n''t go into violent fits of weeping on that account, do they?" |
56713 | Oh dear, oh dear, why can not he leave me in peace? |
56713 | Oh, dear, what shall I do? |
56713 | Oh, what is the matter? |
56713 | Oh, why did my poor mother die so soon? |
56713 | Only think of it, my dear friend, and ask yourself what will all this wealth have cost you? |
56713 | Or perhaps the lovely pink gown that Madame Louise said fitted you à merveille?" |
56713 | Payot asked himself,"I wonder whether it has anything to do with his promise to restore my fortune? |
56713 | Read it carefully and to- morrow, my dear friend, I shall come again, if you will be good enough to fix a time?" |
56713 | Renée?" |
56713 | Rushing into the vestibule he enquired breathlessly:"Is the doctor at home? |
56713 | So what do you think I did? |
56713 | Still, who knows?" |
56713 | Surely you do n''t mean to say that you have enemies who come to my house?" |
56713 | Sydney Smith even asked the inventor whether he would not like to store his gas in the dome of St. Paul''s Cathedral? |
56713 | Tell me what does it all mean, and what am I doing here? |
56713 | That is if mademoiselle will pardon a stranger?" |
56713 | There are''--what was it she said? |
56713 | There is one God and one Joseph, and the latter is the king of chefs, n''est- ce pas?" |
56713 | There you are,"cried Riche as they approached the conservatory,"did I not tell you where we would find him?" |
56713 | Villebois?" |
56713 | Was he mistaken? |
56713 | Was it for joy?" |
56713 | Was it not then natural that such a beautiful prize should be competed for by the ladies to grace their receptions? |
56713 | We know the laws of gravity, but what is the cause of it? |
56713 | We were unable to prove that Pierre was concerned in it, and supposing he turned out to be innocent? |
56713 | Well, we must outmanoeuvre him, n''est- ce pas? |
56713 | Well, who knows? |
56713 | Wer wohnt dort oben auf goldenen Sternen? |
56713 | Were you invited there?" |
56713 | What are they pulling you about for?" |
56713 | What are we to do?" |
56713 | What are you doing standing still like a born fool that you are? |
56713 | What brings you in here, mon ami, on a filthy day like this of all others?" |
56713 | What could be finer? |
56713 | What could she do? |
56713 | What did he die of?" |
56713 | What do you mean, Céleste? |
56713 | What do you mean? |
56713 | What do you mean? |
56713 | What do you mean?" |
56713 | What do you say to crême d''orge à l''allemande? |
56713 | What do you say to that?" |
56713 | What else could he want me for? |
56713 | What have you three been doing since dinner?" |
56713 | What instrument do you play?" |
56713 | What is life? |
56713 | What is the force which enables me to do it? |
56713 | What is the plot?" |
56713 | What on earth can Renée find to admire in a mad fossil like Delapine? |
56713 | What on earth does this mean?" |
56713 | What on earth gave you that idea?" |
56713 | What originates force or energy? |
56713 | What reason could anyone have to seek his death? |
56713 | What shall I do?" |
56713 | What shall we call them-- globes of crystal light? |
56713 | What then becomes of the remaining stupendous energy? |
56713 | What then have I to fear, if after death I shall either not be miserable, or shall certainly be happy?" |
56713 | What was I saying? |
56713 | What was it she told him when she steadily gazed on it? |
56713 | What was the cause of the Franco- German war? |
56713 | What was the rascal like, do you know his name?" |
56713 | What would he be doing now? |
56713 | What would my adored mother have said to all this? |
56713 | What would old Duval have given to have a third share in it? |
56713 | What would she think of him now? |
56713 | What would the Duvals think of us? |
56713 | Whatever do you mean?" |
56713 | When I learnt that thou wast dead, Say wast thou conscious of the tears I shed? |
56713 | When a man dies, will he live again? |
56713 | When a man flatters himself that he understands a woman, he----""Merely flatters himself?" |
56713 | When are you going to keep that promise?" |
56713 | Where are you going to?" |
56713 | Where can I find out all about it? |
56713 | Where did you manage to learn these things?" |
56713 | Where may you be staying?" |
56713 | Where was it I heard it?" |
56713 | Where was the dot he promised his daughter for her marriage portion? |
56713 | Where?" |
56713 | Which do you prefer,"he continued,"some coffee or a liqueur? |
56713 | Who could have taken it? |
56713 | Who would ever have thought it possible? |
56713 | Why are séances held in the dark, or in merely a dull red light? |
56713 | Why ca n''t you go to your own room?" |
56713 | Why do you address me?" |
56713 | Why do you ask?" |
56713 | Why do you speak evil of my darling mother who is in the grave? |
56713 | Why do you treat me in this way? |
56713 | Why have you not given it up as I have so often implored you? |
56713 | Why hesitate any longer? |
56713 | Why is it that you have never shown yourself to me before, except for a moment when Henri was in a trance?" |
56713 | Why then should the things you have just mentioned be less credible? |
56713 | Why then should you take the one for granted, and absolutely refuse even to examine the other? |
56713 | Why, what more do you want? |
56713 | Will not monsieur le docteur be seated while my daughter allows him to regard the ring?" |
56713 | Will you do me a special favour?" |
56713 | Will you help me, Mademoiselle Céleste? |
56713 | Will you listen to me or not? |
56713 | Will you share your lot with me, darling? |
56713 | Wo geht er her? |
56713 | Wo n''t you like to come and hear it? |
56713 | Wo n''t you, let me?" |
56713 | Wohin ist er gekommen? |
56713 | Would the morning never break? |
56713 | Would you oblige me, Monsieur Payot, with the loan of your watch?" |
56713 | Would you screen an incarnate fiend from justice?" |
56713 | Yes, I remember, but surely you have outgrown all that?" |
56713 | You are assistant medical analyst to the Government, are you not?" |
56713 | You dare to simper and smile after this?" |
56713 | You dare to tell me that you wo n''t marry the son of my old comrade- in- arms?" |
56713 | You do n''t mean to say that I shall not see you any more?" |
56713 | You do n''t mean to say that you know her?" |
56713 | You do n''t mean to say that you were the General?" |
56713 | You do want to help your old father, do n''t you? |
56713 | You have not been fighting with anyone surely?" |
56713 | You have not seen me crying to- day, have you?" |
56713 | You have some trouble,"she continued,"and I want to help you to bear it, may I? |
56713 | You idiot, why did n''t you attack him, or at least run back and lock the door after you, and then come and call me? |
56713 | You know I have always maintained there is a great deal of truth in it, have n''t I, Marcel?" |
56713 | You know I never told you a lie, and why should I tell you one now?" |
56713 | You must have had a little too much wine, which no doubt made you drowsy, eh?" |
56713 | You will forgive me, wo n''t you? |
56713 | You will promise me to come and sing, wo n''t you?" |
56713 | You, professor? |
56713 | are you in love with her then?" |
56713 | asked Renée,"why is he so eager to get the packet? |
56713 | cried Villebois,"Is it really a fact that you have succeeded in twisting her round your little finger as well?" |
56713 | dear,"she exclaimed,"whatever shall I do? |
56713 | do n''t you know her? |
56713 | doctor, do tell me, is there anything the matter?" |
56713 | enquired Payot,"have you not bought any? |
56713 | exclaimed Duval,"Do you mean to tell me that she actually hit you?" |
56713 | he exclaimed,"Professor Delapine, the renowned professor at the Sorbonne?" |
56713 | mother, darling mother, why did you leave me? |
56713 | said one of the great men,"what can we do? |
56713 | she cried,"Is that really you?" |
56713 | she cried,"where are you? |
56713 | she whispered to Céleste who was sitting between her and Riche,"whatever will become of me?" |
56713 | surely you are not sorry that you accepted him?" |
56713 | they all exclaimed with looks of horror on their faces,"do you really mean that Pierre did the dastardly act?" |
56713 | they all exclaimed,"What adventures? |
56713 | they all exclaimed,"to Monte Carlo?" |
56713 | too well; would it not be a thousand times more interesting if you were to test its wonderful powers by letting me see a little way into the future?" |
56713 | what are we coming to? |
56713 | what have you done?" |
56713 | what is that fellow Charles doing? |
56713 | what is the matter-- what have they been doing to you?" |
56713 | what shall I do? |
56713 | what were you so interested about when I came in?" |
56713 | what will become of me?" |
56713 | what will my confessor say when I tell him?" |
56713 | you dare to tell me that you refuse?" |
