59235said Pantagruel, at once interested,"were there as many wonderful things in your Land of Satin as there are in this Land of Pictures?"
59235what is this monster going to do with us?

23739I''ll rin past, and gie a knock at the door wi''the poker to rouse him up?
23739Is not that a gude ane noo?
23739Just look,he said, turning up the inside seam of the leg--"just see-- can any gentleman make a visit in such things as these?
23739Mansie Wauch, Mansie Wauch, hae ye gane out o''yere wuts?

23739Who''s murdering us?
23739Will you stand that?

23739Yes,said I;"and what for?"
23739''Where''s the horse and cart, then, my man?
23739--And what, said I to Benjie, did Jacob Truff the gravedigger tell ye by way of news?
23739And if no kirk casts up-- which is more nor likely-- what can a young probationer turn his hand to?
23739And what did they turn out to be, think ye?
23739Are you not aware that I could hand you over to the sheriff, on two special indictments?
23739But mightna we breed him a doctor?
23739But we have other things to fear; what think ye of highway robbers?"
23739But what is''t for, maister?"
23739But what remead?
23739But what will ye say there?
23739But what will ye say there?
23739But what, think ye, happened?
23739But why weave a long story out of the materials of sorrow?
23739But ye can have no earthly objection to making him a lawyer''s advocatt?"
23739But ye''ll mind Hornem, the sherry- officer wi''the thrawn shouther?"

23739Do ye dare to imagine that I am a Jerusalem spider, that I could be crammed, neck and heels, into such a thing as that?
23739Do ye imagine that, if he were made a sea- admiral, we could ever live to have any comfort in the son of our bosom?
23739Do ye mind, Maister,"she said,"when ye was so deep in love aince yoursell?"
23739Do ye no see the haill street in a bleeze of flames?
23739Do ye not see that long beard?
23739Do ye understand that?"
23739For what more can we do here below?
23739Give counsel in need, James: what is to be done?"
23739Hae ye a silver sixpence?
23739Have ye any bairns?"
23739Have you fallen, boy?
23739Hoo cam this man kimmer, And who can it be; Hoo cam this carle here, Without the leave o''me?
23739How far are we from Dalkeith?"
23739How shall I repay such kindness?
23739I aye landed in the kirkyard:--and where is the man of woman born proud enough to brag, that it shall not be his fate to land there at last?
23739I hear you are to be cried in the kirk on Sunday?"
23739I pitied him from the very bottom of my heart-- as who would not?
23739I saw her give him one of the apples; and, hearing him say, with a loud gaffaw,"Where is the tailor?"
23739I speired at the porter, if the gentleman with the velveteen breeches and powdered hair, that was dining with the Duke, had come up the avenue yet?
23739I thought of our both running away; and then of our locking ourselves in, and firing through the door; but who was to pull the trigger?
23739I wad rin awa hame, only I am frighted to gang out my lane.--Do ye think the doup of that candle wad carry i''my cap?"
23739I wonder who educates these foreign creatures?
23739In what direction do you think, Mansie, we should all take flight?"

23739Is n''t that very pretty?"
23739Is she loaded?"
23739It had only one sparred window, and there was a garden behind; but how was I to get out?
23739It was a terrible business, but what wool can ye get by clipping swine?
23739It''s true he''s caa''d a flunky, which does not sound quite the thing; but what of that?
23739Just look, what think ye of that now?
23739Nanse, who was, all time, standing behind, looking what I was after, asked me,"if I was going to shave without hot water?"
23739No, no-- what need had such wise pows as theirs of being taught or lectured to?
23739So, as he was just taking off his spectacles cannily, and saying to me--"And was not that droll?"
23739The de''il or spunkie, whilk o''them?"
23739The newspapers told us what it had done abroad; and what better could we expect from it at home?
23739The whole of us ran forward, but foremost was Bloatsheet, who seizing Magneezhy by the hand, cried, with a mournful face,"I hope you forgive me?
23739There''s naething here to harm us?"
23739This is an affair of honour, you take, do n''t ye?
23739This job being over to his mind as well as mine, and the money safely stowed into his big hinder coat- pocket-- would ye believe it?
23739V And art thou dead?
23739VII And art thou gone?
23739Wad ye like that?"
23739Was it not?
23739Weel, what came next?"
23739Wha''ll wager me that she wadna hae won?
23739What are ye about here with the door lockit?
23739What could I do?
23739What do ye think they did?
23739What else could they expect?
23739What need had such feelosophers of having a king to rule over, or a Parliament to direct them?
23739What should ye have done that ye should be ta''en to sic an ill place?"
23739What think you did the ne''er- do- weels do in return?
23739What was the upshot?"
23739What was to be done?
23739What will a body say there?
23739What will ye say there?
23739Where did ye happen to pick up all that knowledge?"
23739Where is the blood coming from?"
23739Where''s my son?--where''s my dear bairn Benjie?"
23739Which o''ye can lend me a hand, lads?
23739Who might that have belonged to, now, I wonder?
23739Wi''his blue bonnet on his head, And his doggie running?
23739Will I, maister?"
23739Would you believe it?
23739Ye dinna mean to shoot me, do ye?
23739Ye see-- as I asked ye before-- yon trees on the hill- head to the eastward; just below yon black cloud yonder?"
23739Ye''re surely joking me all the time?"
23739Yet where think ye did the ring go to?
23739[ Picture: The waiting girl, Jeanie Amos] What was to be done?
23739and where''s the cart, then?''
23739are ye whistling to yoursell?"
23739asked I;"and how did he live?"
23739cried Nanse--"are ye really serious?"
23739did onybody ever see or hear tell of the like o''that?
23739do ye not see that?"
23739how little will even the severest scrutiny enable us to discover?
23739maister; save us, maister; ay-- ay-- ay-- you have na cloured his harnpan with the guse?
23739or endeavour to paint feelings that have no outward sign, lying shut up within the sanctuary of the heart?
23739or has the French landed?
23739or have ye seen a ghost?
23739or is the fire broken out again?
23739quo''she, Saw ye Johnie coming?
23739quoth Isaac to me,"and no hearing what''s God''s truth?"
23739said I to him, rising up from my chair in a great hurry of a fright--"Has onybody killed ye?
23739said I,"and did he really and actually boil siccan trash to his dinner?"
23739said auld Paul laughing, and taking the pipe out of his cheek,"whose butler is''t that ye''re after?"
23739said the old Doctor, who was near- sighted, staring at Magneezhy''s bloody face through his silver spectacles--"what''s the matter?"
23739what''s in a name?
23739what''s that"?
23739what, in the name of wonder, has done this?"
23739who ever saw a sheep''s head with straight horns, and a visnomy all colours of the rainbow-- red, blue, orange, green, yellow, white, and black?"
23739will ye not send for the town- officer?"
23739you man, de ye ken onything about that?"
23739you man, do ye ken onything about that?"
20767''But where''s the horse? 20767 ''That''s the best news I''ve heard the nicht, my man.--Goodwife, I say, Goodwife; are ye deaf or donnart?

20767But what is''t for, maister?"
20767But what remead?
20767But what will ye say there?
20767But what will ye say there?
20767But what, think ye, happened?
20767But why weave a long story out of the materials of sorrow?
20767But ye can have no earthly objection to making him a lawer''s advocatt?"
20767But ye''ll mind Hornem, the sherry- officer wi''the thrawn shouther?"
20767Can I get a horse and boy to ride express to Edinburgh for a ready- made article?"
20767Can ye tell me ought of that?''
20767Div ye keep rotten- fa''s about your premises, Maister Wauch?
20767Do ye dare to imagine that I am a Jerusalem spider, that I could be crammed, neck and heels, into such a thing as that?
20767Do ye imagine that, if he were made a sea- admiral, we could ever live to have any comfort in the son of our bosom?
20767Do ye mind, Maister,"she said,"when ye was so deep in love aince yoursell?"
20767Do ye no see the haill street in a bleeze of flames?
20767Do ye not see that long beard?
20767Do ye understand that?"
20767For what more can we do here below?
20767Give counsel in need, James: what is to be done?"
20767Hae ye a silver sixpence?
20767Have ye any bairns?"
20767Have you fallen, boy?
20767Hoo cam this man, kimmer, And who can it be; Hoo cam this carle here, Without the leave o''me?
20767How far are we from Dalkeith?"
20767How shall I repay such kindness?
20767I aye landed in the kirkyard:--and where is the man of woman born proud enough to brag, that it shall not be his fate to land there at last?
20767I hear you are to be cried in the kirk on Sunday?"
20767I pitied him from the very bottom of my heart-- as who would not?
20767I saw her give him one of the apples; and hearing him say, with a loud gaffaw,"Where is the tailor?"
20767I speired at the porter, if the gentleman with the velveteen breeches and powdered hair, that was dining with the Duke, had come up the avenue yet?
20767I thought of our both running away; and then of our locking ourselves in, and firing through the door; but who was to pull the trigger?
20767I wad rin awa hame, only I am frighted to gang out my lane.--Do ye think the doup of that candle wad carry i''my cap?"
20767I wonder who educates these foreign creatures?
20767In what direction do you think, Mansie, we should all take flight?"
20767Is n''t that true, Isaac?"
20767Is n''t that very pretty?"
20767Is she loaded?"
20767It had only one sparred window, and there was a garden behind; but how was I to get out?
20767It was a terrible business, but what wool can ye get by clipping swine?
20767It''s true he''s caa''d a flunky, which does not sound quite the thing; but what of that?
20767Just look, what think ye of that, now?
20767Nanse, who was, all the time, standing behind, looking what I was after, asked me,"if I was going to shave without hot water?"
20767No, no-- what need had such wise pows as theirs of being taught or lectured to?
20767Saw ye Johnie coming?
20767She would have won for a hunder pounds, if she hadna broken her leg.--Wha''ll wager me that she wadna hae won?
20767So, as he was just taking off his spectacles cannily, and saying to me--"And was not that droll?"
20767The de''il or spunkie, whilk o''them?"
20767The newspapers told us what it had done abroad; and what better could we expect from it at home?
20767The whole of us ran forward, but foremost was Bloatsheet, who seizing Magneezhy by the hand, cried, with a mournful face,"I hope you forgive me?
20767There''s naething here to harm us?"
20767This is an affair of honour, you take, do n''t ye?
20767This job being over to his mind as well as mine, and the money safely stowed into his big hinder coat- pocket-- would ye believe it?
20767V. And art thou dead?
20767Wad ye like that?"
20767Was it not?
20767Weel, what came next?"
20767What are ye about here with the door lockit?
20767What could I do?
20767What do ye think they did?
20767What else could they expect?
20767What need had such feelosophers of having a king to rule over, or a Parliament to direct them?
20767What should ye have done that ye should be ta''en to sic an ill place?"
20767What think you did the ne''er- do- weels do in return?
20767What was the upshot?"
20767What was to be done?
20767What was to be done?
20767What will a body say there?
20767What will ye say there?
20767Where did ye happen to pick up all that knowledge?"
20767Where is the blood coming from?"
20767Where''s my son?--where''s my dear bairn Benjie?"
20767Which o''ye can lend me a hand, lads?
20767Who might that have belonged to, now, I wonder?
20767Will I, maister?"
20767Would you believe it?
20767Ye dinna mean to shoot me, do ye?
20767Ye see-- as I asked ye before-- yon trees on the hill- head to the eastward; just below yon black cloud yonder?"
20767Ye''re surely joking me all the time?"
20767Yet where think ye did the ring go to?
20767and where''s the cart, then?''
20767are ye whistling to yoursell?"
20767asked I;"and how did he live?"
20767cried Nanse--"are ye really serious?"
20767did onybody ever see or hear tell of the like o''that?
20767do ye not see that?"
20767how little will even the severest scrutiny enable us to discover?
20767maister; save us, maister; ay-- ay-- ay-- you have na cloured his harnpan with the guse?
20767or endeavour to paint feelings that have no outward sign, lying shut up within the sanctuary of the heart?
20767or has the French landed?
20767or have ye seen a ghost?
20767or is the fire broken out again?
20767quo''she, Saw ye Johnie coming?
20767quoth Isaac to me,"and no hearing what''s God''s truth?"
20767said I to him rising up from my chair in a great hurry of a fright--"Has onybody killed ye?
20767said I,"and did he really and actually boil siccan trash to his dinner?"
20767said auld Paul laughing, and taking the pipe out of his cheek,"whose butler is''t that ye''re after?"
20767said the old Doctor, who was near- sighted, staring at Magneezhy''s bloody face through his silver spectacles--"what''s the matter?"
20767what''s in a name?
20767what''s that?"
20767what, in the name of wonder, has done this?"
20767who ever saw a sheep''s head with straight horns, and a visnomy all colours of the rainbow-- red, blue, orange, green, yellow, white, and black?"
20767will ye not send for the town- officer?"
20767you man, do ye ken onything about that?"
20767you man, do ye ken onything about that?"
8374A pleasant story, is n''t it? 8374 Abstract rights?
8374Affect ye? 8374 Again I ask, why do you assume the very point in question?
8374Ah, well-- this little taste of British justice will thicken his hide for him, eh?
8374Alton, you fool, why did you let out that you were a snip?
8374An artilleryman?
8374An''ai n''t that all over the same?
8374An''did n''t the blessed Jesus die for all?
8374An''hoo much o''thae gran''objectives an''subjectives did ye comprehen'', then, Johnnie, my man?
8374An''ran oot sarkless on the public, eh? 8374 An''so he has no objection to a wee playing at Papistry, gin a man finds it good to tickle up his soul?"
8374An''wha''s Meester Windrush, then?
8374An''what for then? 8374 An''you''re a going to lend us a hand?
8374Anan?
8374And are there any men,I said,"who believe this?
8374And have you been drinking arter all?
8374And have you tried to write? 8374 And he will, but not the one I want; and he could not buy me reputation, power, rank, do you see, Alton, my genius?
8374And if I did,I answered, more and more excited,"have I not slaved for you, stinted myself of clothes to pay your rent?
8374And if it is refused?
8374And is n''t everything fair in a good cause?
8374And it is for that that you will sell your soul-- to become a hanger- on of the upper classes, in sloth and luxury?
8374And she wo n''t see me? 8374 And that is really in the Bible?"
8374And this,I said,"is your idea of a vocation for the sacred ministry?
8374And what business have they to let themselves be ordered? 8374 And what else?"
8374And what gospel is there in a moral teaching? 8374 And what is The Cause?"
8374And what sort of a man was he?
8374And what sort of a preacher was his parson?
8374And who are you?
8374And who was the landlord of this parish?
8374And who''s made''em savages? 8374 And why ai n''t they?"
8374And why,asked I, more vexed and disappointed than I liked to confess--"why did you not tell me before?"
8374And will the country join us?
8374Are you a farmer?
8374Aristocrats? 8374 Aw yow knawn Billy Porter?
8374Aw? 8374 Ay, a live dean-- didn''t you see the cloven foot sticking out from under his shoe- buckle?
8374Ay, and more-- and how''s a man ever to pay that?
8374Ay, he did speak of that-- what did he call it? 8374 Ay, my lassies; but ha''ye gotten na fire the nicht?"
8374Big enough to make fighters?
8374But after all,I said one day,"the great practical objection still remains unanswered-- the clergy?
8374But are you so ill off?
8374But does n''t it ruin their health? 8374 But how can I, till I know what sort of a style it ought to be?"
8374But is not beauty,I said,"in itself a good and blessed thing, softening, refining, rejoicing the eyes of all who behold?"
8374But the law?
8374But the time?--so infinitely shorter than that which Nature usually occupies in the process?
8374But what is it?
8374But what sort of handwriting was it?
8374But what was the postmark of the letter?
8374But where did you get the money? 8374 But where is the cover?"
8374But who will teach me Latin?
8374But,I asked again, half- laughing, half- disgusted,"do you know what your duty is?"
8374But,I asked, as a jealous pang shot through my heart,"how did you contrive to get this same footing at all?
8374But,I asked,"have you read much for ordination, or seen much of what a clergyman''s work should be?"
8374But,I said,"Mr. Mackaye, do you think it right to sell books of the very opinions of which you disapprove so much?"
8374By what?
8374Can ye do that same, laddie?
8374Can you ask the question? 8374 Charles the First?"
8374Come on,he said, peevishly clutching me by the arm;"what do you want dawdling?
8374Conjuring-- to strike a perpendicular, noo, or say the Lord''s Prayer backwards?
8374Conspiracy? 8374 Could you find un, dee yow think, noo, into Lunnon?
8374Dee yow consider, now, that a mon mought be lost, like, into Lunnon?
8374Dee yow think, noo, yow could find out my boy out of un, by any ways o''conjuring like?
8374Destruction?
8374Did he teach you to disobey your mother?
8374Did n''t I see you take it out o''the old un''s pocket, you young villain?
8374Did you not know it? 8374 Do n''t his mother know he''s out?"
8374Do n''t you know what came of the strike a few years ago, when this piece- work and sweating first came in? 8374 Do n''t you see they''re leaving?
8374Do n''t you see, stupid?
8374Do you call a sweater''s man a free man?
8374Do you expect me to live on your charity, on condition of doing your dirty work? 8374 Do you know this man?"
8374Do you mean to call me a profligate?
8374Do you not believe me? 8374 Do you think that I monopolize the generosity of England?
8374Do you upbraid me with that?
8374Doctor? 8374 Does it want so very much wisdom to understand the rights and the wrongs of all that?
8374Does n''t the parish allow the old lady anything?
8374Ely?
8374Faix, an''ai n''t we all brothers?
8374Faix, thin, Misther Mackaye, darlint, an''whin did I desarve to pawn me own goose an''board, an''sit looking at the spidhers for the want o''them?
8374From the counthry?
8374Government-- government? 8374 Ha''ye looked into the monster- petition?"
8374Hallo, young''un, come to your senses? 8374 Have I hit him?"
8374Have n''t I been taking down every one of these lectures for the press?
8374How are you, my dear fellow? 8374 How came I here?
8374How did you learn all this?
8374How do ye ken what I may ha''thocht gude to read in my time? 8374 How lang ha''ye learnit that deil''s lee, Johnnie?
8374How long have I slept? 8374 How lost?"
8374How shall I answer him? 8374 How shall I help you?"
8374How so, if they break the laws of Nature?
8374How so?
8374How wad I ken that you had need o''t? 8374 How''s that?"
8374How?--how does a hound get a footing on a cold scent? 8374 Hullo, Alton, how are you?
8374Hullo, Poleax-- Costello-- What''s that? 8374 Hullo, young''un, and what do you want here?"
8374Hum, hum, widow, eh? 8374 Hymns for******?"
8374I am the dog, then?
8374I can quite understand your feeling deeply on one point,I said, as I took it,"after the sad story you told me; but why so bitter on all?
8374I dare say the vulgarity of that school has, ere now, shaken your faith in all that was holy?
8374If I must go, then, why so far? 8374 Is that any reason ye should write it?
8374Is that anything good to eat? 8374 Is this true?"
8374Is this,she said to Lord Lynedale,"the young person of whom you were speaking to me just now?
8374It seems so indeed-- but what do you mean?
8374Join them?
8374Leave the boy alone,growled Crossthwaite;"do n''t you see he''s crying?"
8374May I ask what is the subject of it?
8374May I go into your wood?
8374May I take the liberty of recommending my cousin here?
8374Michaelsh? 8374 Monster?
8374Need it be quenched there? 8374 Not enough?
8374Och, thin, and would n''t I just go mad if ever such ill luck happened to yees as to be taken to heaven in the prime of your days, asthore?
8374Och, were not abuses notorious? 8374 Of what?"
8374Oh, I am perfect in that character, I suppose? 8374 Oh, is it weed, or fish, or floating hair-- A tress o''golden hair, O''drowned maiden''s hair, Above the nets at sea?
8374Or a few efreets?
8374Ow, well, yow moi soy that- mak''th''em cruel thin then, it do; but what can bodies do i''th''ago? 8374 Parson?
8374Perhaps my learned brother would like a jury of rioters?
8374Perhaps the heathens are grown better than they used to be?
8374Poetic element? 8374 Porter or ale, sir?"
8374Power? 8374 Really, my good fellow, how can you wonder if our friends suspect you?
8374Set fire to the stones? 8374 Shall I pray, then?
8374Shure, thin, and ye''re a tailor, my young man?
8374Sloth and luxury? 8374 So ye gied the ministers a bit o''yer mind?
8374So you are one of these new Tractarians? 8374 So you keep a leader because he''s descended from ancient kings, do you?
8374Spy is he, thin? 8374 Tell me, then-- to try the Socratic method-- is disease, or health, the order and law of Nature?"
8374Them''s a sight o''larned beuks, Muster Mackaye?
8374Then why did you never say a kind word to me?
8374Then why, in Heaven''s name, did you introduce me to such a scoundrel?
8374Then you are implicated in this expected insurrection?
8374Then you believe in the Malthusian doctrines?
8374Then, do you believe in the old doctrines of Christianity?
8374Then, would one who healed diseases be a restorer, or a breaker of order?
8374They had all left town that morning,"Miss-- Miss Winnstay-- is she ill?
8374Vot''s that row?
8374Wad ye ha''them set up a dancing academy for working men, wi''''manners tocht here to the lower classes''? 8374 Wadna ye prefer a meeracle or twa?"
8374Was Paley,I asked,"a really good and pious man?"
8374Was he a cannibal, to drink out o''that pump hard- by, right under the kirkyard?
8374Was he a relation of yours?
8374Was it wrong in him to give himself such trouble about the education of a poor young fellow, who has no tie on him, who can never repay him?
8374Wellsaid I to myself, smiling in spirit,"what would my Chartist friends say if they saw me here?
8374Well, but,asked Crossthwaite,"was not that man, at least, splendid?"
8374Well, my young''un,recommenced my tormentor,"and how do you like your company?"
8374Well, young man, all right again? 8374 Well,"I said,"my dear cousin, and have you no high notions of a clergyman''s vocation?
8374Well,he said, as soon as we were out of the shop,"which way?
8374What are you a- grumbling here about, my man?--gotten the cholera?
8374What did he say to you about gentlemen being crammed by tutors and professors? 8374 What do you mean by grumbling at the whole thing in this way, Mr. Mackaye?
8374What do you mean?
8374What do you mean?
8374What do you mean?
8374What drives the Frenchman to suicide?
8374What for, then? 8374 What harm have they done you?"
8374What is that, sir?
8374What on earth do you mean? 8374 What on earth do you mean?"
8374What right have you,I asked, bristling up at a sudden suspicion that crossed me,"to use such words about me?"
8374What road?
8374What then remains? 8374 What war ye greeting about, then?
8374What was it that you adored? 8374 What would you like, sir?
8374What''s elevation?
8374What''s that about brotherhood and freedom, Lillian? 8374 What''s the matter, boys?"
8374What''s the matter?
8374What''s this?
8374What''s trade?
8374What, not become what Nature intended you to become? 8374 What, the little beauty somewhere near Cavendish Square?"
8374What,I said,"was it not proved upon my trial, that I exerted all my powers, endangered my very life, to prevent outrage in that case?"
8374What--(in the other place)--do you mean by giving me the trouble of re- writing it? 8374 What?
8374What? 8374 What?
8374What? 8374 What?"
8374What?
8374What?
8374When did he die?
8374Where else can we get any? 8374 Whereby you mean that you are on your way to her now?
8374Who dared to put such a thought into your head?
8374Who denies it? 8374 Who told you, my dear young friend, that to break the customs of Nature, is to break her laws?
8374Who was this lady?
8374Whose? 8374 Why are we weigh''d upon with heaviness, And utterly consumed with sharp distress, While all things else have rest from weariness?
8374Why for suld I speired? 8374 Why have I not as good a right to speak to her, to move in the same society in which she moves, as any of the fops of the day?
8374Why not go to my uncle?
8374Why wo n''t you let a cove die? 8374 Why, did n''t they tell us, before the Reform Bill, that extension of the suffrage was to cure everything?
8374Why, hav''n''t you a right to aspire to a college education as any do- nothing canon there at the abbey, lad?
8374Why, then, in the name of reason and mercy?
8374Why, then?
8374Why, was he not rich?
8374Why, yow told o''they sweaters-- dee yow think a mon might get in wi''one o''they, and they that mought be looking for un not to vind un?
8374Why?
8374Will ye, noo? 8374 Will you sign the protest, gentlemen, or not?"
8374With me?
8374Would a change in the franchise cure that?
8374Would that other dream have ever given you peace, even if it had ever become reality?
8374Would they be a blessing to me now? 8374 Wud I tell ye?
8374Ye''ll be wanting work, thin?
8374Yell be coming the- morrow? 8374 Yer do n''t?
8374Yes, it is Locke; and surely you''re my old friend Jemmy Downes? 8374 You a sweater''s man?"
8374You arn''t the king of the Cannibal Islands, as I know of, to cut a cove''s head off?
8374You do n''t mean it? 8374 You find the room quiet?"
8374You have never trusted me,I cried,"you have watched me--""Did you not deceive me once already?"
8374You know the opinion of the physicians?
8374You seem to be deeply interested in that picture?
8374You seem to be very intimate here,said I,"with all parties?"
8374You speak out boldly and well; but how can you judge what I may please to fancy? 8374 You wrote?
8374Your cousin?
8374Your love? 8374 Yow maun ha''got a deal o''scholarship among they, noo?"
8374''Cause why?
8374''Tak''a drap o''kindness yet, for auld langsyne?"
8374''Verra weel, father,''says the puir skellum;''and wha''s wife shall I tak?''
8374***** But what became of our protest?
8374***** But who was my benefactor?
8374***** But, the reader may ask, where was your Bible all this time?
8374*****"Did ye ever gang listering saumons by nicht?
8374--Do ye think, noo, we sall ha''knowledge in the next warld o''them we loved on earth?
8374--he burst out suddenly in his old ranting style--"what is there left on earth to live for?
83749d.?
8374A conversation which passed between us years ago at D**** on the antithesis of natural and revealed religion-- perhaps you recollect it?"
8374A demp unpleasant body?"
8374A murdered man?
8374Abstract rights?
8374After a short pause he said, quite abruptly,"Tom, do you want to live to be old?"
8374Again I ask, who knows what really are the laws of Nature?
8374Again I ask-- who will go forth and preach that Gospel, and save his native land?
8374Ai nt that logic and science, Orator?"
8374All things have rest: why should we toil alone?
8374Altogether, a joyous, genial bit of-- Nature?
8374An''gin they didna sae intend, wad it be coorteous o''me to gang speiring an''peering ower covers an''seals?"
8374An''what''s the use o''intellect?
8374And as I went out of the village, I accosted a labourer, who was trudging my way, fork on shoulder, and asked him if that was the parson and his wife?
8374And can you expect to eat your cake and keep it too?
8374And did n''t she know it?
8374And did n''t she know that you knew it too?"
8374And had he not a right to dispose of my person, having bought it by an allowance to my mother of five- and- twenty pounds a year?
8374And how came I to lie down without undressing?"
8374And how can you have too much of a good thing?
8374And how did you intend to spend it?"
8374And how ought it to be done?
8374And if I did, who''d fetch''em home?
8374And if I die, what better thing on earth can happen to me?"
8374And if the workmen chose to take lower wages, he was not bound actually to make them a present of more than they asked for?
8374And if there, why not elsewhere?
8374And if those who have, like you, still covet more, what wonder if those who have nothing covet something?
8374And is she after all, like Pantagruel''s ship, to be loaded with hemp?
8374And is that word a dream, a lie, the watchword only of rebellious fiends, as bigots say even now?
8374And is this not the truth?
8374And my cousin?
8374And need I say, too, that I was as utterly disgusted at my attempt to express her in words, as I had been at my trial with the pencil?
8374And now comes the question-- What is to be done with these poor tailors, to the number of between fifteen and twenty thousand?
8374And now for your''but''--""The raising of the dead to life?
8374And now, what shall I say to you, my friends, about the future?
8374And so I let them go on their own way, conscious of but one thought-- was Lillian in the court?
8374And so on through weary weeks of moping melancholy--"a double- minded man, unstable in all his ways?"
8374And the strong and the cunning said,"What can we do with all this might of ours?"
8374And then more villas and palings; and then a village;--when would they stop, those endless houses?
8374And then will you show us a few tardy improvements here and there, and ask us, indignantly, why we distrust you?
8374And then, if a boy does show talent in school, do they help him up in life?
8374And were we to free ourselves from it by any frantic means that came to hand?
8374And what comes of it?
8374And what else, in Heaven''s name, ye fine gentlemen-- what else can a working man do with his imagination, but dream?
8374And what have you read on these subjects?"
8374And what the dickens do you want to be educating yourself for, pray?"
8374And what''n, think yow, be gone wi''un?"
8374And what-- what-- have I seen equal to her since?
8374And which?
8374And who are they?
8374And whose fault is it that THEY are not members of the Church of England?
8374And ye want to read books?"
8374And yet, were there no excuses for us?
8374And yet, what if she was with him-- what to me?
8374And you, too, I hear, are taking your share in this projected madness and iniquity?"
8374Are the people represented?
8374Are there no differences of rank-- God''s rank, not man''s-- among us?
8374Are they not doing you good at this moment?
8374Are we to throw ourselves into their hands after all?
8374Are ye a Cockney or a Cannibal Islander?
8374Are you a nursery- maid, that you must stare at those red- coated butchers?"
8374Are you convinced, once for all?"
8374Are you represented?
8374Are you, too, going to shrink back from The Cause, now that liberty is at the very doors?"
8374Arn''t it yourn?
8374Ask my mother when I ever disobeyed her before?
8374Ay, how indeed?
8374Ay-- the few wilful, triumphant wicked; but the millions of suffering, starving wicked, the victims of society and circumstance-- what hope for them?
8374Barn''t accoostomed to tramp, then?"
8374Be''est thee honest man?"
8374Because why?
8374Bloodshed?
8374But come, find me some starving genius-- some græculus esuriens--""Who will ascend to the heaven of your lordship''s eloquence for the bidding?"
8374But gin ye daur, why dinna ye pack up your duds, and yer poems wi''them, and gang till your cousin i''the university?
8374But has He not taught me all these very things_ by my_ parish priest life?
8374But have I not paid the penalty?
8374But have they given life to a single bone or muscle of his limbs?
8374But have you no guess as to where he is?"
8374But how came you here to visit him?
8374But how is the wound in your back the day?"
8374But if he had work, ca n''t he get victuals?"
8374But if they have succeeded so well, may there not be hundreds more in England who would succeed equally?
8374But she answered only with a quiet smile:"So you are a Chartist still?"
8374But she who lived beneath them?
8374But still, who could be prouder, more imperious, more abrupt in manner, harsh, even to the very verge of good- breeding?
8374But the king said,"Wherefore?
8374But to be shamed, and know that I deserved it; to be deserted by my own honour, self- respect, strength of will-- who can bear that?
8374But was the sum of knowledge, human and divine, perfected at the Reformation?
8374But were there no excuses for the mass?
8374But what was to become of Susan?
8374But when did they unite in any name but that?
8374But where to get the books?
8374But why is the badness of the clergy any reason for pulling down the Church?
8374But why was the law broken in order to restore it?
8374But would I, that am an honest woman, go to live with they offscourings-- they"--(she used a strong word)--"would I be parted from my children?
8374But yet, why do we need the help of the clergy?"
8374But, Johnnie, lad-- guide us and save us!--whaur got ye a''these gran''outlandish words the nicht?"
8374But, after all, what else could it be?
8374But, if it were I, would not that be only another reason for submitting?
8374But--"Martyrdom?"
8374By what strange ascetic perversion has_ that_ got to mean"keeping holy the sabbath- day"?
8374By- the- by, that coat ours?
8374By- the- by, would you like me to tell our friends at D**** that I met you?
8374Can not God find champions for them when you are gone?
8374Can ye sing?"
8374Can ye tak long nose, an''short nose, an''snub nose, an''seventeen Deuks o''Wellington out o''my puddins?
8374Can you deny that you''ve been off and on lately between flunkeydom and The Cause, like a donkey between two bundles of hay?
8374Canna ye see it there?
8374Canst thou administer to a mind diseased?
8374Clergymen of England!--look at the history of your Establishment for the last fifty years, and say, what wonder is it if the artisan mistrust you?
8374Coral Islands?
8374Could I die while they were unfulfilled?
8374Could her prayers alter that?
8374Crossthwaite, are not children a blessing?"
8374Crossthwaite?"
8374Crossthwaite?"
8374Curse the old villain!--who''ll help to disappoint him''o that?
8374D''ye ken a medicamentum that''ll put brains into workmen--?
8374Dare I write my history between those two points of time?
8374Did He not love us, too, even as we loved each other?
8374Did He, too, let me become a strong, daring, sporting, wild man of the woods for nothing?
8374Did I envy him?
8374Did I rejoice?
8374Did not the priesthood, in the first ages, glory not in the name, but, what is better, in the office, of democrats?
8374Did not you, too, neglect the work which the All- Father had given you, and run every man after his own comfort?
8374Did she look as calm, as grand in death as he who lay there?
8374Did she remember my features, as I did hers?
8374Did she turn away in indignation?
8374Did you find that your method of thought received any benefit from it?"
8374Did you hear anything that astonished your weak mind so very exceedingly, after all?"
8374Did you not hear me just now praising the monasteries, because they were socialist and democratic?
8374Didst ever know one called Porter, to yowr trade?"
8374Dinna ye see what be the upshot o''siccan doctrin''?
8374Do n''t a girl know when she''s pretty, without asking her neighbours?"
8374Do n''t they squires tax the land twenty or thirty shillings an acre; and what do they do for that?
8374Do ye gie us a turn, please?"
8374Do you believe?"
8374Do you call me a profligate because I wish to educate myself and rise in life?"
8374Do you comprehend noo?"
8374Do you delight in God?
8374Do you fancy that you can alter a fallen world?
8374Do you feel like a man that''s got any one to fight your battle in parliament, my young friend, eh?"
8374Do you know where you are?".
8374Do you love Jesus Christ?
8374Do you mean to condemn, just now, the Church as it was, or the Church as it is, or the Church as it ought to be?
8374Do you think I should be so open with it, if I meant anything very diabolic?
8374Do you think I will have my daughter polluted by the company of an infidel and a blasphemer?"
8374Do you think the working men forget them?
8374Do you think warm hearts beat only in the breasts of working men?
8374Do you want un yourself, eh?
8374Does not nine- tenths of the blame of that lie at your door?
8374Does not that argue ill for the facts themselves?
8374Does that look like the invention of tyrants, and prelates?
8374Does the supply of mercy meet the demand of misery?
8374Drink?
8374Eavesdropping?"
8374Eh?
8374Else, why in Heaven''s name do you pay him poor''s rates?
8374Even if the wages did depend entirely on the amount of competition, on whom does the amount of competition depend?
8374Fear, of course, was the only motive she employed; for how could our still carnal understandings be affected with love to God?
8374First floor''s Ashmy Ward-- don''t you hear''um now through the cracks in the boards, a puffing away like a nest of young locomotives?
8374For instance, am I to consider it the exception or the rule, when I am told that you, a journeyman tailor, are able to correct these proofs for me?"
8374For the last time, who will go up with me to the mountain?"
8374For what could he make me but a tailor-- or a shoemaker?
8374For what?
8374Forgot the latch- key, you sucking Don Juan, that''s it, is it?
8374Gave a barrister as good as he brought, eh, Mr. Mackaye?
8374God or the devil?
8374Got a holiday?
8374Grand triumphs those, eh?"
8374Gude guide us!--What was yon, Alton, laddie?"
8374Ha''ye been to Exeter Hall the while?
8374Had I not hopes, plans, desires, infinite?
8374Had he actually heard of the omissions in my poems?--and if he once touched on that subject, what could I answer?
8374Had he been in the room when my visit to D**** was determined on?
8374Had he come there as a spy on me?
8374Had invasion threatened us at any period between 1815 and 1830, or even later, would any ministry have dared to allow volunteer regiments?
8374Had it not been decided from all eternity?
8374Had not freedom, progressive, expanding, descending, been the glory and the strength of England?
8374Had not the Queen''s counsel been trying all day to murder me, as was their duty, seeing that they got their living thereby?
8374Had she ever even thought of me, from that day to this?
8374Has he not found them already?
8374Has not priestly pandering to tyrants made the Church, in every age, a scoff and a byword among free men?"
8374Has she really cast me off?"
8374Has the mind power of creating sensations for itself?
8374Has their conduct to the masses for the last century deserved that we should do so?
8374Have I not confessed my own weakness?
8374Have I not run to and fro for you like a slave, while I knew all the time you did not respect me or trust me?
8374Have I not surely had practice enough already?"
8374Have not you as good a right to them as any gentleman?"
8374Have they done so?
8374Have they not all seemed to consider it a sacred duty to keep themselves, as far as they could, out of party strife?"
8374Have you done with him, governor?"
8374Have you forgotten that, after all, you are my-- guest, to call it by the mildest term?"
8374Have you larger stomachs, as well as stronger arms?
8374Have you not done mischief enough already?"
8374Have you not neglected our meetings?
8374Have you not picked all the spice out of your poems?
8374Have you perused therein the priceless Chapter"On the Probable Futurity of the Labouring Classes"?
8374Have you read any Latin?"
8374Have you read any logic?"
8374Have you read the story of Abou Zennab, his horse, in Stanley''s''Sinai,''p. 67?
8374He could say, with the old Moslem,"God is great-- who hath resisted his will?"
8374He did not shake hands with me, it is true;--was I not a poor relation?
8374He says, if the Oxford Tracts did wonders, why should not we?
8374He went through Cavendish Square, up Harley Street-- was it possible?
8374He writes--?
8374Headache, eh?
8374Hech?
8374Henry was not arbitrary; arbitrary men are the most obstinate of men?
8374Here the manager broke in,"Why did n''t our Government step in then, and buy largely, and store in public granaries?"
8374Homer''s heroes did so, Why not such as we?
8374How came you here?
8374How can yow do that then?
8374How could He be my Father till I was converted?
8374How did I know that she had not felt for me?
8374How did she come here?"
8374How did the court know that there was not one?
8374How do ye expect ever to be happy, or strong, or a man at a'', as long as ye go on looking to enjoy yersel-- yersel?
8374How do ye ken that the auld Scot eats a''he makes?
8374How do you know that my idea of carrying out Eleanor''s sermons in practice were just what I could not-- and if I could, dared not, give?
8374How lang, O Lord, before thou bring these puir daft bodies to their richt mind again?"
8374I always thought him a gracious youth, madam, did n''t you?
8374I answered, passionately,"will you rob us poor creatures of our only faith, our only hope on earth?
8374I axes you,"he cried fiercely, raising his voice to a womanish scream--"where are they?"
8374I believed, I loved to believe, that every face I passed bore the traces of discontent as deep as was my own-- and was I so far wrong?
8374I blushed scarlet, between pleasure and a new feeling; was it ambition?
8374I die?
8374I do not think we are quite big enough to make fighters; and if we were, what have we got to fight about?"
8374I had raised the spirit; could I command him, now he was abroad?
8374I said,"give up the very ideas for which we have struggled, and sinned, and all but died?
8374I saw them.--How can I write it?
8374I seized her hand, covered it with adoring kisses-- Slowly she withdrew it, and glided from the room-- What need of more words?
8374I tried to call to him to move; but how could a poor edentate like myself articulate a word?
8374I wonder whether Isaiah began to write before his beard was grown, or Dawvid either?
8374I would educate myself; I would read-- what would I not read?
8374I would have plunged across-- but there were three objections-- first, that I could not swim; next, what could I do when I had crossed?
8374I zay, could yow do''t?"
8374I''ve got no bread-- where should I?
8374I''ve got no fire-- how can I give one shilling and sixpence a hundred for coals?
8374I, the only Chartist there?
8374If I can get it, why ca n''t you?"
8374If any man is scoundrel enough to carry tales, I''ll--""Do what?"
8374If it be asked, how can they be so confined?
8374If not from Him, good readers, from whom?
8374If not in their fathers''cause, yet still in theirs, were it so great a sin to die upon a barricade?"
8374If she had cared for me-- if she had a woman''s heart in her at all, any pity, any justice, would she not have spoken?
8374If the party of order cares so much for the millions, why had they left them what they are?
8374If the plan does not pay, what then?
8374If they had wished to be kind, why had I grudged them the opportunity of a good deed?
8374If thou hadst a self, thou wouldst but lie in denying it-- and would The Being thank thee for denying what he had given thee?
8374In showing the individuality of the man swamped and warped by the routine of misery and discontent?
8374In thunder, and storm, and garments rolled in blood?
8374Interfere with the food and labour of the millions?
8374Is it because these aristocrats are more intellectual than I?
8374Is it because they are more refined than I?
8374Is it flesh or spirit?
8374Is it not even now farther off than ever?"
8374Is it not noteworthy, also, that it is in this vein that the London poets have always been greatest?
8374Is it not written, that the days shall come when the forest shall break forth into singing, and the wilderness shall blossom like the rose?
8374Is it not"speaking evil of dignities"?
8374Is it so indeed?
8374Is it their fault if God has placed them where they are?
8374Is it their fault, if they refuse to part with their wealth, before they are sure that such a sacrifice would really be a mercy to you?
8374Is it too strong to be resisted now?
8374Is n''t he the man to pitch into the Mammonites?
8374Is no the verra idea of the classic tragedy defined to be, man conquered by circumstance?
8374Is not the Church of England the very purest form of Apostolic Christianity?"
8374Is that fault of others to be visited on me?
8374Is the knife or the bludgeon, then, the only foul play, and not the cesspool and the curse of Rabshakeh?
8374Is there anything about one idle day in seven to be found among the traditions of Mammon?
8374Is there no the heeven above them there, and the hell beneath them?
8374Is this a time to listen to the voices of singing men and singing women?
8374Is this true?"
8374It is God''s cause, fear not He will be with us, and if He is with us, who shall be against us?"
8374It is for this, that you, brought up a dissenter, have gone over to the Church of England?"
8374It must be the same unknown friend who had paid my debt to my cousin-- Lillian?
8374It must be true!--Was not the power of it around her like a glory?
8374It was but a corner of a gable, a scrap of garden, that I could see beyond intervening roofs and trees-- but could I mistake them?
8374It was too far to distinguish features; the dress was altogether different-- but was it not she?
8374Johnnie, my Chartist?"
8374Late home from the Victory?"
8374Let me see-- what can I recollect?
8374Liberty, equality, and brotherhood?
8374Liberty?
8374Look at any place of worship you like, orthodox and heretical.--Who fill the pews?--the outcast and the reprobate?
8374Lord Lynedale?
8374Mackaye''s?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?"
8374Mackaye?--eh?"
8374Man the master of the brutes?
8374Men?
8374Merely negative?"
8374Merely on the gross numbers of the workmen?
8374Might there not have been dozens of them?--emissaries from London, dressed up as starving labourers, and rheumatic old women?
8374Might we not, after all, be happy together, in some little hole in Chelsea, like Elia and his Bridget?
8374Mr. Elliot, where are you?
8374Mr. Power has an_ alibi_, then?
8374My heart beat fast and fierce, but he ran on--"Do you think I''d have eaten all this dirt if it had n''t lain in my way to her?
8374My mother often said that the room was"too small for a Christian to sleep in, but where could she get a better?"
8374No one asserts that nothing is done; the question is, is enough done?
8374No?
8374Not to know that they first set the example, by getting the army and navy clothes made by contractors, and taking the lowest tenders?
8374Nothing else?
8374Now, who''s to suffer for that?--the farmer as works, or the labourer as works, or the landlord as does nothing?
8374Now, you fat gentleman up there, have you done a qualifying of yourself for Newgate?"
8374Often, turning round suddenly in the workroom, I caught him watching me with an expression which seemed to say,"Poor boy, and art thou too one of us?
8374One real lady, who should dare to stoop, what might she not do with us-- with our sisters?
8374Only, as I am asking questions, who will write us a"People''s Commentary on Shakspeare"?
8374Or for its realization?
8374Or like the dew on the mown grass, and the clear shining of the sunlight after April rain?
8374Or was it that black- edged letter which lay waiting for me on the table?
8374Or was she neither, and yet all-- some ideal of the great Arian tribe, containing in herself all future types of European women?
8374Or, if you must be a poet, why not sing of nature, and leave those to sing political squabbles, who have no eye for the beauty of her repose?
8374Ox- tail soup, sir, or gravy- soup, sir?
8374Pacific?
8374Perhaps I had helped Jourdan Coupe- tête at Lyons, and been king of the Munster Anabaptists-- why not?
8374Perhaps an_ alias_ too?"
8374Perhaps there is competition among the angels, and Gabriel and Raphael have won their rank by doing the maximum of worship on the minimum of grace?
8374Profligate too?
8374Pulse?
8374Put any conceivable sense you will on the word, and then say-- are they free?
8374Religion?
8374Romantic?
8374Science had revealed the irrevocability of the laws of nature-- was man alone to be exempt from them?
8374Shall I curse the profligate?
8374Shall I punish the robber?
8374Shall I, after all, lay my bones among my own people, and hear the voices of freemen whisper in my dying ears?
8374Shall no the Judge of all the earth do right-- right-- right?"
8374Shall we try?
8374She glanced at the book, clutched it with one hand and my arm with the other, and sternly asked,"Where did you get this heathen stuff?"
8374She-- so frail, tender, retiring-- how could she speak?
8374Slightly comato- crapulose?
8374So I made my first attempt at poetry-- need I say that my subject was the beautiful Lillian?
8374So you expect to have time to read?
8374So you would have the monopoly of talent, too, exclusive worldlings?
8374So you''re going down to D****, to see after those poor starving labourers?
8374So, representative institutions are the talismanic palladium of the nation, are they?
8374Somehow I blushed, and could not altogether meet his eye, while he went on,"--An''gin ye could, whaur would ye do''t?
8374Special prawvidences!--wha can doot them?
8374Stilton cheese, sir, or Cheshire, sir?
8374Study after sixteen hours a day stitching?
8374Study, when you can not earn money enough to keep you from wasting and shrinking away day by day?
8374Study, with the black cloud of despair and penury in front of you?
8374Study, with your heart full of shame and indignation, fresh from daily insult and injustice?
8374Stuff!--are these tailors free?
8374Sublime and strong?
8374Such a fund of information-- such excellent English-- where did they get it all?"
8374Summat heavy, then?
8374Surely not for the mere charm of novelty?
8374Tailor a- tramp?
8374Tak a drappie, Billy Porter, lad?"
8374Take a caulker?
8374That auld body owre the fire, wi''her''an officer''s dochter,''is there na poetry there?
8374That puir lassie, dying on the bare boards, and seeing her Saviour in her dreams, is there na poetry there, callant?
8374The People''s Friend?
8374The face was Lillian''s?
8374The footman came out smiling,"What did I want?"
8374The inward reality or the outward symbol, which is only valuable as a sacrament of the loveliness within?"
8374The meeting was sufficiently public to allow of his presence, but how had he found out its existence?
8374The most complete perhaps of his fugitive pieces of this kind is the pamphlet,"Who are the friends of Order?"
8374The night is past-- behold the sun!-- The cup is full, the web is spun, The Judge is set, the doom begun; Who shall stay it?''"
8374The omnibus- horses were racers, and the drivers-- were they not my brothers of the people?
8374The strong and the weak have been matched for the same prize: and what wonder, if the strong man conquers?
8374Their worldliness, their being like the world, like the laity round them-- like you, in short?
8374Then I arose and said,"How is this?"
8374Then I ran out, and cried to them,"Fools I will you do as these rich did, and neglect the work of God?
8374Then came the question,"What had brought me to Cambridge?"
8374Then one said,"Are we not better off as we are?
8374Then the doors were put up-- were they going to finish that handsome tower?
8374Then why do they leave the men who make their clothes to starve in such hells on earth as our workroom?
8374Then you call yourself one?"
8374There''s a time to speak the truth, and a time not, is n''t there?
8374There''s draining and digging enough to be done as''ud keep ye all in work, arn''t there?"
8374There''s lots o''victuals in their larders now; have n''t you as good a right to it as their jackanapes o''footmen?
8374They are always crying''Ireland for the Irish''; why ca n''t they leave England for the English?"
8374They are customs, but who has proved them to be laws of Nature?
8374They believe the gospel?
8374They may misjudge the clergy; but whose fault is it if they do?
8374They, too, who did not appreciate, adore that beauty as I did-- for who could worship her like me?
8374Those starving millions of Kennington Common-- where are they?
8374To sit down was impossible; my only thought was-- where was Lillian?
8374To what thinking man is it not a life- long battle?
8374To which I answered,"Very well"--and turned stupidly back upon that nightmare thought-- was Lillian in the court?
8374To which St. John answers pertinently''He who loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?''
8374True, she had cast me off; but had I not rejoiced in that rejection which should have been my shame?
8374Warn''t he as turned five on yer off last week?
8374Was I delighted?
8374Was I mad, sinful?
8374Was I not a Chartist and an Infidel?
8374Was I not bound to preach the cause of my class wherever I went?
8374Was I so far wrong either in the gloomy tone of my own poetry?
8374Was I so very wrong?
8374Was I to lose her, too?
8374Was Shakespeare a politician?
8374Was he a Popish saint?"
8374Was it consistent with justice for the government to pay for making a pair of trousers( four or five hours''work) only 2- 1/2d?
