30134	Have we ever heard of a plan more just, of a truth more inspiring?

14002	But who is there who can not see that each step in attainment of consciousness brings with it a corresponding freedom from suffering?
14002	Did Emerson predict a Millenium?
14002	Did Jesus teach the kingdom of God on earth?

14002	Does this imply that an unlettered mind is desirable?
14002	Does this"flesh"mean the physical body?
14002	From what was Buddha finally liberated?
14002	Had the ancient Hebrews any knowledge of Illumination and its results?
14002	Have the present- day Buddhists lost the key?
14002	Have you felt so proud to get at the meaning of poems?
14002	Have you longed for perfect, satisfying_ human_ love?

14002	He only asks"how much can I give?"
14002	His disciples said unto him:"When will thou be manifest to us, and when shall we see thee?"
14002	His_ guru_ stood beside him and gently asked:"What did you, my son?"
14002	How can it fail when we"seek not our own,"but only love for love''s own sake, without regard to compensation or gratitude?
14002	How may the Self acquire consciousness and yet become selfless?
14002	How may the Self realize a state of selflessness and yet not be lost in a sea of_ un_ consciousness?
14002	How might they know when they had found this great love that was to make them"a new creature"?
14002	How, then, would they know when they had attained to this state of consciousness, of which he spoke, and which they but dimly understood?
14002	I shuddered with fear when I became sure that it was indeed she, but why were the closed eyes so fallen in?
14002	If God is omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, how and where and in what manner can be explained the necessity of individual effort?
14002	If we admit the desirability of living in such a family, why not in such a world?
14002	If you melt butter in a pan over a fire, how long does it make a noise?

14002	Is the_ atman_ asleep?
14002	Is there a basis for belief in physical immortality?
14002	Is there any evidence that Cosmic Consciousness is possible to all?
14002	Seraphita answered:"Couldst thou love two beings at once?
14002	She who loves will she not quit the world for her lover?
14002	Should he not be the first, the last, the only one?
14002	Suddenly he started up and murmured in alarm:''What is this?''
14002	The persistence of the ideal of Perfected Man; Has it any basis in history?
14002	The worldly wise man or woman asks"how much do I get?"
14002	Then Salome said to him:"Then have I done well that I have not given birth?"
14002	These suspensions of life always found expression in the same problem,''Why am I here?''
14002	This being true, male and female must they return to the source from which they sprung, completing the circle, and gaining what?
14002	To Minna she used the term"Heaven,"and when Minna questioned:"But art thou worthy of heaven when thou despisest the creatures of God?"

14002	To what was due Tolstoi''s great struggle and suffering?
14002	WHAT IS NIRVANA?
14002	Was Paul changed by"conversion,"or what was the wonderful power that altered his whole life?

14002	What caused Buddha the greatest anxiety?
14002	What is Nirvana?
14002	What is the law?
14002	What shall he say to God?
14002	What, then is the goal, and how may it be attained?
14002	Who is he that shall intercede with Him, save by His permission?"
14002	Who will not say that the bee is more satisfied when he has found and drank of the honey than when he is buzzingly seeking it?
14002	Why Buddha endured such terrible struggles; is suffering necessary to Cosmic Consciousness?
14002	Why have we prayed that the will of God which is Love,"be done on earth as it is in the heavens,"if we despise the planet and hope to leave it?
14002	Why not?
14002	Why should we be so careful when at the end of all things nothing remains of what was once Nicolai Tolstoi?
14002	Why stand shrinking there?
14002	Why was she so terribly pale, and why was there a blackish mark under the clear skin on one cheek?"
14002	Why?
14002	Will such a state ever exist on the earth?
14002	Would a lover be a lover if he did not fill the heart?
14002	and then''What next?''
14002	have you reckoned the earth much?
14002	or possessed by a devil?
21533	Is this a reason against it? 21533 Is this hypothesis so laughable merely because it is the oldest?
21533	What demon is this that has taken possession of me?
21533	What have I done?
21533	Why act at all, the objection will be urged, if everything is foreseen by the Law? 21533 A man clothed in soft raiment? 21533 A prophet? 21533 A reed shaken with the wind? 21533 And his disciples asked him, saying: Master, who did sin, this man or his parents, that he was born blind? 21533 And once more, why not another time all those steps, to perform which the views of Eternal Rewards so powerfully assist us? 21533 And that which even I must forget_ now_, is that necessarily forgotten for ever?
21533	And would this chastisement, multiplied millions of times without the faintest reason, never have stirred the conscience of the Church?
21533	And yet, who suspected this until he had gone out for a few minutes and then returned to the bed- room?
21533	As a final example, do not infant prodigies prove that men are not born equal?
21533	As children have in them no sin capable of meriting so terrible a punishment, tell me what answer can be given?"
21533	Because the human understanding, before the sophistries of the schools had disciplined and debilitated it, lighted upon it at once?
21533	But Herod said, John have I beheaded; but who is this of whom I hear such things?
21533	But what went ye out for to see?
21533	But what went ye out for to see?
21533	But why should not every individual man have existed more than once in this world?
21533	Can he have been in one and the self- same life a sensual Jew and a spiritual Christian?
21533	Can no reply be given to this terrible charge brought against Divinity?
21533	Can the millions of descendants of the mythical Adam have been chastised for a crime in which they have had no share?
21533	Could divine Law be less compassionate than human law?
21533	Could the assassin, who has lost all memory of the crime committed the previous evening, change his deed or its results in the slightest degree?
21533	Did he mention it only to ridicule the superstitions of his contemporaries, as seems evident from the_ Timæus_?

21533	Does forgetfulness efface faults or destroy their consequences?
21533	Does human justice, in spite of its imperfection, punish the offspring of criminals?
21533	Does not the man, who commits suicide, himself push forward the hand on the dial of life, setting it at the fatal hour?

21533	Goethe writes as follows to his friend Madame von Stein:"Tell me what destiny has in store for us?
21533	Have such arguments ever been justified by the voice of conscience?
21533	Have travelled over in one and the same life?
21533	Have you never had remembrances of a former state?...
21533	How can such frightful inequalities be made to appear consistent with the infinite wisdom and goodness of God?...
21533	How can we be said to have been banished from a place in which we never were?
21533	In the lineage of these prodigies has there been found a single ancestor capable of explaining these faculties, as astonishing as they are premature?
21533	Is it not rash for us, in our profound ignorance, to criticise the workings of a boundless Wisdom?
21533	Is it not sheer blasphemy to attribute such folly to the Soul of the world?
21533	Is it possible to attribute to the influence of surroundings alone a degree of moral poverty so profound as this?
21533	Is it the Church which has always imposed_ the letter_ of the Bible and condemned all who have attempted to set forth_ its spirit_?]
21533	Is man to remain in a state of dejection and discouragement, as though some irreparable catastrophe had befallen him?
21533	Is not the Law strong enough to save him, if he is not to die; and if he is, have we any right to interfere?...
21533	Is or is not that which is called magnetic effluvia a something, a stuff or a substance, invisible and imponderable though it be?...
21533	Is there a previous life the elements of which have prepared the conditions of the life now being lived by each of us?
21533	Is this another instance, like the one just mentioned, of tampering with the writings of this Father of the Church?
21533	Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see?
21533	On Charpignon recommending that she should try to turn_ her_ aside from her purpose, she replied:"What can I do?
21533	Or because I forget that I have been here already?
21533	Ought not baptism to have been instituted immediately after the sin, and should it not have been placed within the reach of all?
21533	St. Augustine said:"Did I not live in another body, or somewhere else, before entering my mother''s womb?
21533	The question, however, might be asked: How is the transition made from one kingdom to another?
21533	To every awakened soul the question comes: Why does evil exist?
21533	WHY DOES PAIN EXIST?
21533	What is the missing link?
21533	What soul could admit that the innocent should be punished for the guilty?
21533	When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I, the Son of man, am?
21533	Where in Nature can there be found such lack of proportion between cause and effect, crime and punishment?
21533	Where lingers eternal justice then?
21533	Wherefore are thrift and foresight lacking in so many men, who are consequently condemned to lifelong poverty and wretchedness?
21533	Wherefore has it bound us so closely to each other?
21533	Who is to interpret the Bible if it is an allegorical book?
21533	Who would affirm that the dimensions of space are limited to four?
21533	Why does the astral body leave the physical during sleep?
21533	Why hast thou made me thus?''
21533	Why may not even I have already performed those steps of my perfecting which bring to men only temporal punishments and rewards?
21533	Why not try and understand the true meaning of the figurative statement before criticising?
21533	Why should I not come back as often as I am capable of acquiring fresh knowledge, fresh expertness?
21533	Why stretch out a hand to the man who falls into the water before our very eyes?
21533	Why this excess of intelligence, used mainly for the exploiting of folly?
21533	Would not this delay in itself be an injustice?
21533	[ Footnote 196: Does this obscure passage refer to the resurrection of the body?]
21533	genus attonitum gelidæ formidine mortis, Quid Styga, quid tenebras, quid nomina vana timetis, Materiam vatum, falsique piacula mundi?
5772	Ah, how can I answer you? 5772 And where go the fires of men when they despair"?
5772	But beyond this illusive light and these ever- changing vistas-- what lies? 5772 But what is pain if there is this love?"
5772	But who would leave joy for sorrow, and who being one with Brahma may return to give council?
5772	But why do you say it is universal? 5772 Can they not be stayed?
5772	Can you forget pain so easily? 5772 Can you not understand?"
5772	Did he say aught further?
5772	Did you come up to the mountains for this,I asked,"to increase your knowledge of the Eocene age?
5772	Did you really dream all that?
5772	Do you go to the theatre?
5772	Do you not know,said Conail sternly,"that one lies ill here who must not be disturbed?"
5772	Do you not see?
5772	Do you now understand?
5772	Do you read much?
5772	Do you really believe all that?
5772	Do you see our old neighbour there?
5772	Has Emer come?
5772	Have you never felt pity as universal as the light that floods the world? 5772 How came you here?"
5772	How then shall we go to the plains of Murthemney? 5772 I say, Harvey,"he said,"how do you spend your evenings?"
5772	Is it not pitiful? 5772 Is it these pitiful spectres we must wage war against?
5772	Is it to meet that fury of fire when he sinks back blind and oblivious? 5772 May I go with you?"
5772	Merodach, must we then give up love?
5772	Never?
5772	Oh, Fountain I seek, thy waters are all about me, but where shall I find a path to Thee?
5772	Oh, yes, why not? 5772 Primaveeta, who can understand you?"
5772	Shall we not go and welcome him when he returns?
5772	Shall we not take you to Dun Imrish, or to Dun Delca, where you may be with Emer?
5772	Tell me, for I would know, why do you wait so long? 5772 There is that fantastic fellow who slipped by me-- could your wisdom not keep him?
5772	Was Fand there?
5772	Was it one such guided me thither?
5772	What are the triumphs of earthly battles to victories like these? 5772 What do I think?"
5772	What have I to do with God, or He with me?
5772	What is it?
5772	What should I do?
5772	Where did Liban take you this time, Laeg? 5772 Whither must I go with you, strange woman?"
5772	Who are these?
5772	Who are you down there in the darkness who sigh so? 5772 Who are you?"
5772	Why do I come? 5772 Why do they not listen?"
5772	Why do you intrude upon our seclusion here? 5772 Why do your white limbs shine with moonfire light?"
5772	(?)
5772	--August 1895 Content Who are exiles?
5772	--July 15, 1894 The Man to the Angel I have wept a million tears; Pure and proud one, where are thine?
5772	--July 15, 1896 The Chiefs of the Air Their wise little heads with scorning They laid the covers between:"Do they think we stay here till morning?"
5772	--March 15, 1897 Priest or Hero?
5772	A voice came up from the depths chanting a sad knowledge--"What of all the will to do?
5772	After all, what else could the soul do after death but think itself out?
5772	After freedom can you dwell in these gloomy duns?
5772	Ah, very well they are; well to know and to keep, but wherefore?
5772	And in what future will be born the powers which are not quick in the present?
5772	And now, changing from particular types, how do we look upon Theosophy as a power in Ethics?
5772	And we, who professed to bring such wisdom, what have we to say?
5772	And what of the other sheep?
5772	And why?
5772	Answer me, priestess, where go the fire- spirits when winter seizes the world?"
5772	Are her darlings forgotten where they darkly wander and strive?
5772	Are not its ideas on a level with, if not higher than, what his most sublime moments of feeling can bring before him?
5772	Are not the lives of all her heroes proof?
5772	Are the rocks barren?
5772	Are these conditions, social and mental, which some would have us strive for really so admirable as we are assured they are?
5772	Are they gay or sad together On that way who go?"
5772	Are they worth having at all?
5772	Are we to acknowledge that Christianity or Agnosticism is more practical, easier for the men in the street to grasp?
5772	Are we to confess Theosophy is a doctrine only for the learned, the cultured, the wealthy?
5772	Are we to say that Theosophy is not a gospel for to- day?
5772	Are you all alone there?
5772	Art thou a magian, or in thee Has the divine eye power to see?"
5772	Born out of the womb of the earth long ago in the fulness of power-- what shadow had dimmed his beauty?
5772	But how are we to hope for this progress?
5772	But if it does do so, what does it substitute?
5772	But what gardens are these?"
5772	But whence came the two maidens who were walking toward him along the glistening sand?
5772	But who is there may set apart his destiny from the earth which bore him?
5772	But who of the old bards would have described nature other than as she is?
5772	But who thinking what he is would call back the titan to this strange and pitiful dream of life?
5772	Can not we get this ideal or some other ideal so essential a part of our thought that it colours all our feelings, emotions and actions?
5772	Can they not be stayed?"
5772	Can we not do something to allay the sorrow of the world?
5772	Can we reject him or any other as comrades while they offer?
5772	Closer I heard voices and a voice I loved: I listened as a song came"Tell me, youthful lover, whether Love is joy or woe?
5772	Could he be initiated deeper in the chambers of the temple than in those great and lonely places where God and man are alone together?
5772	Could the fire of the altar inspire more?
5772	Cuchullain was silent awhile and then said reflectively:"Do you think we could find Liban again?"
5772	Cuchullin, whose hair, dark( blue?)
5772	Deep down in our hearts have we not all longed, longed, for that divine love which rejects none?
5772	Do the war- songs of the Ultonians inspire thee ever like the terrible chant of fire?
5772	Do we not treasure most their words which remind us of our divine origin?
5772	Do you call those miserable myriads a humanity?
5772	Do you sigh at the long, long time?
5772	Does it seem very vast and far away?
5772	Does not Theosoophy afford the very best outlet for his soul force?
5772	Does the glory fade away before thee?
5772	Does this seem to slight a guarantee for sincerity, for trust reposed?
5772	Earth- breath, what is it you whisper?
5772	Father, what is it they tell me?
5772	Father, why do I hear the things others hear not, voices calling to unknown hunters of wide fields, or to herdsmen, shepherds of the starry flocks"?
5772	For their own sake?
5772	Full of scorn it spake,"You, born of clay, a ruler of stars?
5772	Had he not written of it?
5772	Has he not done it over and over again, as here?
5772	Has she also become one of the Sidhe that she journeys thus?"
5772	Has thou not degraded me before all the maidens of Eri by forsaking me for a woman of the Sidhe without a cause?
5772	Have they not come forth in every land and race when there was need?
5772	Have we uttered with equal confidence such hopes, or with such daring and amplitude of illustration?
5772	Have you brought back a message from the Sidhe?"
5772	His spirituality, beauty and tenderness, are these fostered in the civilizations of today?
5772	How can it accomplish its high mission in the world if we seem to ignore in our ranks the presence of the insincere person or fraud?"
5772	How is it, father, that the pouring of cool water over roots, or training up the branches can nourish Zeus?
5772	How shall he now escape?
5772	I hardly had rested, My dreams wither now: Why comest thou crested And gemmed on they brow?
5772	I knew the faces of the day-- Dream faces, pale, with cloudy hair, I know you not nor yet your home, The Fount of Shadowy Beauty, where?
5772	I murmured?
5772	I stood before one of this race, and I thought,"What is the meaning and end of life here?"
5772	I suppose you have some theory about it all-- as wonderful as your gardens?"
5772	I thought,"To what end is this life poured forth and withdrawn?"
5772	If he could only find it, what might he not dare, to what might he not attain?
5772	If our humanity fails us or become degraded, of what value are the rest?
5772	In the many cases where the suffering is unavoidable, and can not be otherwise received, what are we to do?
5772	Is it by any of these dear and familiar names?
5772	Is it by wishing for it that this state will come about?
5772	Is nature to be lost; beauty to be swallowed up?
5772	Is not that a frightful thought?"
5772	Is the brown earth unbeautiful?
5772	Is there no everyday way of getting forward?
5772	Is this the only way for us as a people?
5772	Is thy wisdom of no avail?
5772	It is now the Hour of the King,"Who would think this quite breather From the world had taken flight?
5772	No clubs, classes, music- halls-- anything of the sort, eh?"
5772	Of what power are spear and arrow beside the radiant sling of Lu?
5772	Or does it appear hopeless to you who perhaps return with trembling feet evening after evening from a little labour?
5772	Or will they assimilate the aged thought of the world and apply it to the needs of their own land?
5772	Others have explained intellectually tattvas, principles and what not, but who like him has touched the heart of a hidden nobility?
5772	Others may have been more eloquent and learned, but who has been so wise?
5772	Others may have written more beautifully, but who with such intimations of the Secret Spirit breathing within?
5772	Out of these as from a fountain will spring-- what?
5772	Perhaps he is ill. Are you not well, sir?"
5772	Perhaps you could tell us a real dream?"
5772	Pitiful toiler with the pen, feeble and weary body, what shall make of you a spirit?"
5772	Sad or fain no more to live?
5772	Shall I not say the truth I think?
5772	Shall we go invisibly, or in other forms?
5772	She cried out,"Laeg, Laeg, do you see anything?"
5772	Should we not waken him?"
5772	Show, form, appearance and seeming, what force have they?
5772	Some questions we ought to ask ourselves about this movement: where its foundations were laid?
5772	Tell me-- you dream-- have you ever seen a light from the sun falling upon you in your slumber?
5772	That you knew some one who knew the Masters?
5772	The Glory Why tremble and weep now, Whom stars once obeyed?
5772	The Shadow Who art thou, O Glory, In flame from the deep, Where stars chant their story, Why trouble my sleep?
5772	The children looked without talking Till Roray spoke again,"Are those our folk who are walking Like little shadow men?
5772	The flame of Beauty far in space-- When rose the fire, in Thee?
5772	The rill to its bed came splashing With rocks on the top of that: The children awoke with a flashing Of wonder,"What were we at?"
5772	The voices from the earthly ways Questioned him still:"What dost thou here, If neither prophet, king nor seer?
5772	Then Apollo said,"What wisdom shall we give to children that they may remember?
5772	To the question,"What have we to do with God?"
5772	Twilight of amethyst, amid The few strange stars that lit the heights, Where was the secret spirit hid, Where was Thy place, O Light of Lights?
5772	Was not this apartness the very thing he had just been bitterly feeling?
5772	Was the gloom of the great warrior because he was but the shadow of his former self, or was that pale form indeed empty?
5772	We write that in letters, in books, but to the face of the fallen who brings back remembrance?
5772	Were not these enough for him?
5772	Were they not giants long ago, mighty men and heroes?
5772	What are the princeliest of them beside the fiery halls of Tir- na- noge and the flame- built cities of the Gods?
5772	What are we to do to realize these ideas?
5772	What did you think the links were?
5772	What had he been in her presence that could teach her otherwise?
5772	What has Theosophy to offer to the Roman Catholic?
5772	What is love but a breath of their very being?
5772	What is one to do?"
5772	What is poetry but a mingling of some tone of theirs with the sounds that below we utter?
5772	What is rule over a thousand warriors to kingship over the skyey hosts?
5772	What is the ideal of Ireland as a nation?
5772	What is the love of shadowy lips That know not what they seek or press, From whom the lure for ever slips And fails their phantom tenderness?
5772	What love?
5772	What of all the heart to love?
5772	What of all the hope to climb?
5772	What of all the soul to think?
5772	What of the heroic best of man; how does that show?
5772	What place had he amid these huge energies?
5772	What power is kindled by they might?"
5772	What shall be done to quiet the heart- cry of the world: how answer the dumb appeal for help we so often divine below eyes that laugh?
5772	What shall draw him up?"
5772	What the gain of all your years That undimmed in beauty shine?
5772	What to the average dweller in cities are stars and skies and mountains?
5772	What was he amid it all?
5772	What was his delusion?
5772	What was the mysterious glamour of the Druid age?
5772	What was this old wisdom- religion?
5772	What were they, these figures?
5772	What were they?
5772	What were we to do in the long evenings?
5772	What, I wonder, would these antique heroes say coming back to a land which preserves indeed their memory but emulates their spirit no more?
5772	Where is the ancient image of divinity in man''s face: where in man''s heart the prompting of the divine?
5772	Who announces the ages of the moon?
5772	Who calls him by his secret name?
5772	Who can forget that memorable day when its last great chief was laid to rest?
5772	Who gave thee such a ruby flaming heart, And such a pure cold spirit?
5772	Who is it throws light into the meeting on the mountain?
5772	Who is there who has not felt in some way or other the rhythmic recurrence of light within?
5772	Who teaches the place where courses the sun?"
5772	Why did he not hear their voices?
5772	Why does he linger now?
5772	Why is it that the spirit of daring, imaginative enquiry is so dead here?

14378	And does each mineral monad eventually become a vegetable monad, and then at last a human being?
14378	And if Jesus was a true prophet despite existing confusion of authorities, why on the same lines may not Buddha have been one?

14378	But how many marriages do we find that are really spiritual and not based on beauty of form or other considerations?

14378	Is it meant that these subsidences are so sudden and unforeseen as to sweep away great nations in an hour?

14587	... Or was it the supreme mistake of his life.... one would say the only mistake?
14587	; and no doubt there were plenty then where it was pompous 1919.--Can anyone tell me, by the bye, what year it happens to be in Europe now?
14587	A man came in from the ramparts;--"What news with you?"
14587	A neat compliment, thinks good externalist Wuti, may improve things.--"If nothing can be called holy,"says he,"who is it then that replies to me?"
14587	Above all, in place of the cry of bewilderment that closes the_ Choephori_--''What is the end of all this spilling of blood for blood?''

14587	An unreal lot, with not the ghost of a Man between them;--what should the one Great Man of the age find in them to disturb the least ofhis dreams?
14587	And Arthur said to him,''Hast thou news from the gate?''
14587	And for what end do I toil?
14587	And how much, desiring it, would he possess?
14587	And now?
14587	And of the infinite knowledge at his disposal, would the Man of Tao choose to burden himself with one little item of which there was no present need?
14587	And the Odyssey?
14587	And the meaning of it all?
14587	And what shall we know of ancient Athens and Rome?
14587	And where should you look, back of 850 B. C., to find actual history-- human motives, speech and passions-- or what to our eyes should appear such?

14587	But as reasoning human beings, does it not appeal to you?
14587	But can you not equally hear the voice of Confucius:"too far is not better than not far enough"?
14587	But come to India, and alas, where are you?
14587	But how far do you think the Legions of the Rhine are going to support this young revolting- habited madman against the first general of the age?
14587	But now for the Sixth Root- Race: is that to figure mainly on the plane of intellect?
14587	But now you begin to leave regions where Normans can be remembered or imagined at all:"Spake the youth,''Is there a porter?''
14587	But one of his ministers dissuaded him thus:"Has your majesty,"said he,"any diplomatist in your service like Tse Kung?
14587	But suppose a man, as they say one with Tao, in which all knowledge rests in solution: what knowledge would he desire?
14587	But the summer was icumen in; and what were consuls and Senate for?
14587	But then, where was it more manifest, in Pope or in Keats?
14587	But what about the standpoint of the Gods?
14587	But what could a song do?
14587	But what, against a man so golden- panoplied?
14587	But where does this Homeric mood lead us?
14587	But where in Europe was there national consciousness?
14587	But while the world endured, and the Last Trump had not sounded, of course the Roman empire would stand.--Christianity?
14587	But who, except enthusiasts, was to treat religion seriously?
14587	But whose is the greatest name in it?
14587	But why bother about it?
14587	But why did he not stay at Rome for his orgies: doing at Rome as the Romans did, and thereby perhaps earning a measure of popularity?
14587	But, you say, no Aeschylus or Shakespeare?
14587	Can music be a mere thing of drums and bells?"
14587	Can you conceive that their appearance, all in that one epoch, was a matter of chance?
14587	Can you fancy Latona and her children so received by Greekish or Latin monks into the Communion of Saints?
14587	Can you nourish men upon poisons century by century, and expect them to retain the semblance of men?
14587	Ch''iu asked,''Shall I do all I am taught?''
14587	Could he have known the teachings, had he not been instructed in a school where they were known?
14587	Could he have urged such a plea, had it not been known he was uninitiated?
14587	Did he go to break a way into India, perhaps there to find a light beyond any that was in Rome?
14587	Did he go to reap glory that he might have used, or thought he might have used, in his grand design?
14587	Did he hide it away, lest others should be as happy as himself?
14587	Did not experience show that opposites proceed from opposites?
14587	Did she mean by that merely an initiate of the Official Mysteries as they still existed at Eleusis and elsewhere?
14587	Did some echo of ancient wisdom, Druidic, survive in Britain from Pre- roman days?
14587	Did someone ask:''What shall we name this God- given thing?''

14587	Do you see where these leads?
14587	Does anyone know what place in history he is to fill?
14587	Does it not seem as if that great Far Eastern note could not be struck without this little far western note vibrating in sympathy?
14587	Does not this satisfy you?
14587	Even Tse Lu was shaken.--"Is it for the Princely Man,"said he,"to suffer the pinch of privation?"
14587	Even if Spain should set herself to the Gods''work of union- making, what path should she take towards it?
14587	For what had he to do with what followed?
14587	Greatly capable in action, saintly in life and ideals: what could Rome ask better?
14587	Had that last known, how should he escape being bowed down with grief: then in those years when all his powers and energies were needed?
14587	Has Your Highness no mind to acquire such a secret as this?"
14587	Have any of you heard of literary savages?
14587	Have not our school and its principles a Chinese smack about them?
14587	He did n''t see why we Romans should not have our ancient greatness sung in epic; were n''t we as good as Homer''s people, anyhow?
14587	He did, I believe;--but why?
14587	He looked at them in blank amazement.--"What is this you are telling me?"
14587	He proceeded with the utmost severity against such as betrayed their[ proscribed?]
14587	He was an impostor, was he?
14587	He went unnoticed; Drusus was the pet of all; under such conditions how much harmony as a rule exists between two brothers?
14587	Heavy- hearted, Tse Kung followed him in.--"What makes you so late?"
14587	His stables having been burnt, the Master, on his return from court, said:''Is anyone hurt?''
14587	How dare we pretend, because we can do a few things with a piston or a crucible, that we know the limits of natural and spiritual law?
14587	How do they loose such fragments of old inspiration?
14587	How does he manage it?
14587	How much Numa may have given his Romans, who can say?
14587	How much merit may I be supposed to have accumulated?"
14587	How old?
14587	How shall we compare him with those others, his great compeers on the Mountain of Song?

14587	Liehtse said:--"Will you explain what you mean by the Theory of Consequents?"
14587	May it not have been-- as Sicily was to be-- a mainly European country under Egyptian influence, and a seat of Egyptianized culture?

14587	Neither Augustus, nor yet Livia, then, had Agrippa killed; must we credit it to Tiberius?

14587	Some queer uncouth Italian nature- spirit gods?
14587	Supposing that there were some such scheme of evolution here, as in the world- chain?
14587	Supposing the Octave_ West Asia_ were under the fingers of the Great Player, would not the corresponding note in Europe vibrate?
14587	Supposing the note_ China_ is struck in the Far Eastern Octave; would there not be a vibration of some corresponding note in the octave Europe?

14587	They had the Kilkenny Catterwauling in their ears daily; would they have allowed to any Pagan times a quieter less dissonant music?
14587	This show of ministers, when I have none,--whom will it deceive?
