53193 | And where is Intermere? |
53193 | But how do you achieve all these different results with apparently the same means? |
53193 | But it is an absolute mystery to you? |
53193 | But what are the constituents of the medium in the accumulator, and what are the formulas of the various combinations? |
53193 | How far have we traveled? |
53193 | If your flying machine and airship builders could do that, what would your people think? |
53193 | Is that supernatural? |
53193 | Shall he be permitted? |
53193 | What would you think of his conclusion? |
53193 | Would one, coming out of the depths of absolute ignorance of scientific achievement, as you call it, regard it as a supernatural agency? |
53193 | You communicate alike with friends and strangers hundreds of miles distant in an ordinary tone of voice? |
53193 | You have what you call the telephone? |
53193 | You would learn something of our educational system? |
53193 | Could we find anything that would contribute to our enjoyments, our hopes, our aspirations? |
53193 | Did we start on the journey? |
53193 | Finally I was able to frame a consecutive thought, in the interrogative form, and it was this:"Where am I? |
53193 | Have we halted just beyond the first milestone? |
53193 | Is not this the Atlantis which enthralled the Egyptian sage, philosopher and priest more than ten cycles ago? |
53193 | Is not this true, Maros?" |
53193 | Is this the Heaven my mother taught me to seek?" |
53193 | What would it profit us? |
53193 | Wherein do you differ from the untutored barbarian?" |
53193 | Will our remoter generations reach the Ultima Thule? |
53193 | Will the journey be resumed? |
53193 | Will you sell it me for five thousand rupees, Sahib? |
15454 | Are you in favor of it? |
15454 | But, Belton,broke in Bernard,"how does it happen that I have been excluded from all this?" |
15454 | Do you mean all that you say, Belton? |
15454 | Do you remember our bargain that we made about that nigger when he came about here? |
15454 | In your way? |
15454 | Is any body in my way? |
15454 | Is that so? |
15454 | May I be of any service to you, madam? |
15454 | Pray what do you mean? 15454 Sallie Ann ai n''t yer got wax in yer mouf?" |
15454 | The question remaining before us, then, is, How we are to obtain this freedom? 15454 Was this death? |
15454 | Well, Hannah, what is your brat''s name? |
15454 | What did it mean? |
15454 | What is your name? |
15454 | What is your opinion of the matter, Belton? |
15454 | What''s that he has been doing now? 15454 What''s that?" |
15454 | Where was he? 15454 Who is he? |
15454 | Whom will you have to take you out? |
15454 | A mulatto girl stepped up to Viola and with a merry twinkle in her eye said:"Theory is theory and practice is practice, eh, Vie? |
15454 | A picture of all that his innocent wife had suffered came before him, and he gasped:"O, God, what crime is this with which my soul is stained?" |
15454 | A questioner would then ask,"How many feet?" |
15454 | Ai n''t there any loop- hole where we can give it to Bernard, anyhow?" |
15454 | Belton looked up in astonishment,"Do you mean to say that I must stand up here and eat?" |
15454 | Ca n''t you trust a fellow?" |
15454 | Endeavoring to affect an air of indifference, he said:"What is the price for the young lady and the trunks?" |
15454 | Have you anything to say?" |
15454 | He''ll beat de brat to make him larn, and wo n''t dat be a blessed t''ing? |
15454 | If he knew of my marriage might not others know it? |
15454 | In an off- hand way Belton said:"Driver what is your fee?" |
15454 | Is all my labor in vain, my honors common dirt, my future one dreary waste? |
15454 | Is it wise to admire mortgaged property?" |
15454 | Is she married or about to be?" |
15454 | May I not rely on you?" |
15454 | Might not it be already generally known? |
15454 | See dis scar on side my head? |
15454 | Shall I lose that which has been an ever shining, never setting sun to me? |
15454 | Speaking to Mrs. Piedmont, he said:"What is your name?" |
15454 | Tell me plainly why we can not be man and wife, if you love me as you say you do?" |
15454 | The Chairman asked:"Are you ready to vote?" |
15454 | The boy said:"Papa, why do n''t you kiss Mama?" |
15454 | The questioner asked,"How many feet?" |
15454 | The questioner would then ask,"Whom will you have to take you out?" |
15454 | Viola looked up, her eyes swimming in tears, and said:"Would you kill God?" |
15454 | Was he dead or alive?" |
15454 | What did his strange experiences mean?" |
15454 | What did that assemblage mean? |
15454 | What will he do with it? |
15454 | When he had taken a seat in the corner of a room by the side of his friend he said:"Pray, who is that girl that met you at the door? |
15454 | When will all races and classes of men learn that men made in the image of God will not be the slaves of another image? |
15454 | Will you accept your life at such a low price?" |
15454 | Will you give yourself to a wretch like me? |
49207 | Am I wise? |
49207 | And who controlled them if not the houses of De Cardrosse? |
49207 | And you think to secure peace those sacrifices should be made? |
49207 | Are you sure of your own mind? 49207 But do you realise the sacrifices in all directions that have to be made?" |
49207 | But even so, what obstacle lies in the way of putting an end to the projected action, whatever its nature? |
49207 | But how could it be managed? |
49207 | But what do you mean about returning for my sake? |
49207 | But,said Lady Middlesex,"can you be sure that it always will be so?" |
49207 | Can I ever repay you for what you have done? |
49207 | Can you doubt it? |
49207 | Dare you affect to command me? |
49207 | Dare you threaten me,said she,"and in my own house?" |
49207 | Do I? |
49207 | Do you consider this a good reason? |
49207 | Do you remember,he proceeded,"the last time we were alone? |
49207 | Do you think, my lord,said the girl, very pale but still courageous,"that this course you have adopted is one that will commend you to my liking?" |
49207 | Have you your orders? |
49207 | How came you here? |
49207 | How dare you thus intrude? |
49207 | Is it not so? |
49207 | Is it so bitter a lot? |
49207 | Is this your deliberate decision? 49207 May I call you Phoebe? |
49207 | May I fetch her? |
49207 | My dear Hilda,she said,"why do you look so disturbed, and how is it you are idle? |
49207 | Reginald, dear Reginald, if your sad anticipation is to be realised, should you not cease to think of earthly things? |
49207 | Reginald,she faltered,"I fully, freely forgive you for all your wrongs to me; but can I forget that Colonel Laurient may also meet his death?" |
49207 | So, dear mamma, you were preparing me for this interview? |
49207 | Supposing,said the Empress,"he married an ambitious wife and had sons like you were, dear Albert, in your young manhood?" |
49207 | Then why finally reject me? 49207 Then you do not think that we should retreat from our position even if retreat were possible?" |
49207 | Then, Sir, may I ask, why do you hesitate? 49207 Then,"said Mrs. Hardinge, with some interest,"if the Emperor were to ask your opinion, you would try to persuade him to our side?" |
49207 | Then,said the Emperor,"the mover of the resolution that has occasioned so much trouble has not been consulted?" |
49207 | What can I do with it? 49207 What do I care for wealth?" |
49207 | What is it you wish, Albert? |
49207 | What is the use of it? |
49207 | Who is the traitor,she said,"you dare to compare with your Sovereign?" |
49207 | Who knows that he will not value the acknowledgment as you value the gift? |
49207 | Why do you wish to see me? |
49207 | Why else should I have asked such permission? |
49207 | Why not act yourself? |
49207 | Why not,said Miss Fitzherbert,"arrest them in the midst of their machinations?" |
49207 | Why not? 49207 Why not? |
49207 | Why should you talk of kindness? |
49207 | Why, may I ask, then does your Majesty hesitate? |
49207 | Why,he said,"should we learn ancient Italian any more than the Italians should learn the dialects of the ancient Britons?" |
49207 | Will you tell me what those sacrifices are? |
49207 | Would you have me,said the Emperor,"do such a wrong to my Canadian subjects? |
49207 | You love some one else, then? |
49207 | You surely,said Montreal,"do not care for Lord Reginald?" |
49207 | Your Majesty,said Miss Fitzherbert,"what am I to say? |
49207 | Your Majesty,said the girl, who as his agitation increased appeared to recover some presence of mind,"what would the world say? |
49207 | Am I to be told that, with all the power that has come to me, I am to be less free to secure my own happiness than the humblest of my subjects? |
49207 | And do you wish me to return?" |
49207 | And why do you call me Miss Buller?" |
49207 | As Colonel Laurient joined the throng Hilda said to him,"Why should I not equally congratulate you? |
49207 | But who could say that he did not see in a refusal to pass the necessary Act a means of escaping the distasteful nuptials? |
49207 | Can you spare me for ten days?" |
49207 | Do you recognise what it is you would renounce-- the position of foremost ruler on the wide globe?" |
49207 | Do you think that my Canadian volunteers are not able to perform this duty?" |
49207 | Do you think you can make me happy by tearing me from my friends by an artifice like this?" |
49207 | Does the Emperor give no reasons for his opposition?" |
49207 | He has not promised to support you?" |
49207 | Hilda, almost in tears, responded,"Dear Mrs. Hardinge, tell me, do tell me, what do you really think of Lord Reginald Paramatta?" |
49207 | How can I get rid of it?" |
49207 | How could they celebrate the independence and forget to commemorate the retrieval by their old mother- country of all her power and prestige? |
49207 | How were poor tradesmen to protect themselves? |
49207 | I suppose that the troops will at once proceed to Canada?" |
49207 | If you did not feel that there were possibilities for Reginald in conflict with your indifference, why should you trouble yourself with his removal?" |
49207 | In one word, will it suit you to supply them?" |
49207 | Lady Middlesex quickly rejoined,"Will you let me speak to you as woman to woman, and forget for a moment our official relations?" |
49207 | May I again do so?" |
49207 | May I,"she said in a tone of pathetic entreaty,"utter half a dozen words not officially, but confidentially?" |
49207 | My first, my only, love, will you be my wife?" |
49207 | Said a great lady once to an Australian gentleman,"Are not these easterly winds dreadful? |
49207 | Should I send for Lord Reginald and ask him to attempt to form a Government?" |
49207 | Should she write a letter of thanks? |
49207 | Some papers even went so far as to ask,"Was it a crime for a man to steal a loaf of bread to save his wife and child from starvation?" |
49207 | Tell me now,"he said, with a winning look,"as woman to man, not as subject to Sovereign, what does your heart dictate?" |
49207 | Tell me, my Lord, is it too late for your views to prevail?" |
49207 | The question then was mooted, Could not an aerial machine be devised to work although of higher specific gravity than the air? |
49207 | Then aloud,"Lady Cairo, what am I to do? |
49207 | They had nearly reached the level ground when at three feet distance a sentry stood before them and shouted,"Who goes there?" |
49207 | They spend much more time in learning Latin and Greek than their own language, but who ever buys a Latin or Greek book to read when he is travelling?" |
49207 | What do I doubt? |
49207 | What nation could be strong with pronounced disaffection festering in its midst? |
49207 | Who indeed could do justice to thy charms, sweet Waiwera? |
49207 | Who indeed shall say that he was aimed at? |
49207 | Why did not Lady Cairo consult him? |
49207 | Why do I doubt him? |
49207 | Why should I make a request I know can not be complied with? |
49207 | Why was he not sent for at first? |
49207 | Will you accept the conditions?" |
49207 | Will you be averse to my asking you to advise me on the subject?" |
49207 | Will you before I die give me a sister''s kiss and blessing?" |
49207 | Will you yourself not grieve to see them subordinate to their cousins, your sister''s children?" |
49207 | You are well again? |
42816 | A banquet would be rather tame without, would n''t it? 42816 Ah, they are waking up, perhaps?" |
42816 | Am I? |
42816 | And God sent His Only Son to the Earth, you say, to redeem your race from the consequences of their own acts? |
42816 | And I recognized her, too; she is that Madam Claris you introduced me to in the Auroras''Temple, is she not? |
42816 | And are they successful rulers? |
42816 | And do you parade? |
42816 | And do you? |
42816 | And do your women submit to such conditions,--do they not try to alter them, throw them off? |
42816 | And how about her counterpart of the other sex? |
42816 | And how are we to conduct ourselves during the visitation? |
42816 | And how do you employ your capital? |
42816 | And if one of these creatures is found out, what then? |
42816 | And it is tolerated, allowed, nobody objects? |
42816 | And not of man? |
42816 | And that this planet has different relations with God from what your planet has? |
42816 | And thrown an army of workers out of employment and the means of living, I suppose? |
42816 | And what are teachers of the highest rank, presidents of colleges? |
42816 | And what do they do with their cups,--I mean, how do they carry them about when they are not using them? |
42816 | And what does it mean? |
42816 | And what is that? |
42816 | And what, may I ask, does she do with her surplus,--your sister, I mean,--she must make a great deal of money? |
42816 | And why not your women? |
42816 | And you guard the city? |
42816 | And you make no discrimination in the kind of office? |
42816 | And you think the process eliminates individual traits? |
42816 | Any other women? |
42816 | Are you not rather unjust to the woman? |
42816 | Are your women inconsequent? |
42816 | But did you not tell me just now that your country is a republic? |
42816 | But do not the male relatives of these women object,--their husbands, fathers, brothers? |
42816 | But do they also concern themselves with science? |
42816 | But do you not find it horribly disagreeable, unbearable? |
42816 | But how? 42816 But if I pardon that?" |
42816 | But what constitutes citizenship? |
42816 | But why do you do these things? |
42816 | Certainly, when they choose to do so; what is there objectionable in that? |
42816 | Claris? |
42816 | Do n''t you believe in the Fall of Man? |
42816 | Do n''t you think you are a little unreasonable? |
42816 | Do no women in your country ever do these things,--parade and drink wine, and the like,--which you say you men are not above doing? |
42816 | Do not the men here have clubs? |
42816 | Do not your women engage in business? |
42816 | Do these women drink champagne at their banquets? |
42816 | Do they regard you as absurd? |
42816 | Do you believe in temples of worship? |
42816 | Do you mean that the place was planned for that purpose, or did the name get fastened upon it through accident? 42816 Do you often hear an upright man professing his honesty? |
42816 | Do you punish offenders? |
42816 | Do you wish to look in? |
42816 | Do your women hold office, other than in the school board and the council? |
42816 | Do your women realize what they have got to live up to? |
42816 | Does not its name and those naked imps sufficiently explain it? |
42816 | Does she not believe, then, in progress, development? |
42816 | Does the same idea of equality, or likeness rather, exist in Caskia that prevails here? |
42816 | Elodia,I ventured,"you asked me a very plain question a moment ago, will you forgive me if I ask you the same,--have you had amours?" |
42816 | Except in the management and directorship? |
42816 | Excuse me,I said,"but do I understand you to say that your women have the right of suffrage?" |
42816 | Has Severnius been entertaining you with our religious fables? |
42816 | Have you no houses of prostitution in your country, licensed by law, as this is? |
42816 | Have you nothing of the sort on the Earth? |
42816 | How do you mean? |
42816 | How do you vote here? |
42816 | How is it you are here? |
42816 | How should I know? |
42816 | How, a mistake? |
42816 | How?--by legislation? |
42816 | I hope you do not think we live in open and shameless lawlessness? 42816 I seem to see a vision, shall I tell it to you,--a vision of your Earth? |
42816 | I suppose, then, that only the rich and the aristocratic''vaporize''? |
42816 | If you would rather, you may take my place, sir? |
42816 | Is Elodia''s club a literary one? |
42816 | Is it a new idea to you? |
42816 | Is it not injurious to health? |
42816 | No, indeed, why should they? 42816 No? |
42816 | O, then, it is a charitable organization? |
42816 | On my account? |
42816 | Perhaps we are intruding? |
42816 | Salvation from what? |
42816 | She does not like,--or she does not believe in these Caskians? |
42816 | Since you put in yours? |
42816 | Tell me, Severnius, do women on this planet do everything that men do? |
42816 | Tell me,I said,"why is he called Master? |
42816 | Their interests are identical with ours,I replied,"so what is the difference? |
42816 | Then it must be a natural taste, among your women? |
42816 | Then they of course have a vote? |
42816 | Then why have servants at all? |
42816 | Then you really have some among you who believe in the higher truths? |
42816 | They what? |
42816 | This celebration? |
42816 | We have perhaps grown too frank with each other,she said,"but you are a being from another world, and that must excuse us,--shall it?" |
42816 | Well, a good many more women do not marry; what of those? |
42816 | Well, of course, I mean all those women,--why do they do such things? 42816 Well, surely you will agree with me that in this matter, at least, there should be discrimination?" |
42816 | Well, tell me how it applies in this question of service? |
42816 | Well, why not? 42816 Well, you are perhaps older than I am,"she said,"and you have doubtless had amours?" |
42816 | What are they fitting for? |
42816 | What are your qualifications and restrictions? |
42816 | What do you mean? |
42816 | What do you mean? |
42816 | What does this mean? |
42816 | What effect do you think it would have had? |
42816 | What is it? |
42816 | What is there peculiar about the religion of those people? |
42816 | What parade? |
42816 | What place is it, Severnius, and why have I never seen it before? |
42816 | What possible reason is there why men, more than women, should be privileged to indulge in vice? |
42816 | What sort of peace- offerings? |
42816 | What, even here? |
42816 | Who are they, pray? |
42816 | Who? 42816 Why are you so surprised?" |
42816 | Why does she take all these things upon herself? |
42816 | Why my sister in particular? |
42816 | Why not? |
42816 | Why should I marry? |
42816 | Why so,I asked;"do not women here ever take their husbands''advice?" |
42816 | Will they preach or lecture? |
42816 | Worse? |
42816 | Would it be a disgrace if we were found here? |
42816 | Would you mind telling me why? 42816 Yes, they have heard about you, and are extremely anxious to make your acquaintance?" |
42816 | Yes; but did you notice her cup? |
42816 | Yes? |
42816 | You believe in that life, do you not? |
42816 | You do n''t mean to tell me that these women have wines in their clubhouse? |
42816 | You mean children? 42816 You mean instead of being with the others?" |
42816 | You mean servants? |
42816 | A little later he said:"You spoke of the fall of man,--what did you mean?" |
42816 | A woman stooped down and whispered,"Do you want to go up and kiss Mamma''good- by''before they take her away?" |
42816 | After a moment, he remarked, turning to me with a smile,"We are not so far apart as we thought we were, when we first started out, are we?" |
42816 | And can you not, even yet, separate the spiritual meaning of Christ''s words from their literal meaning? |
42816 | Another silence fell upon us, which I broke by asking,"Who were those pretty youngsters we saw lounging about on the lawn back there?" |
42816 | Are they all angels?" |
42816 | Are they denounced, ostracized, sat upon?" |
42816 | Are we then too philosophical, too poetical,--and not practical? |
42816 | Are your women happy?" |
42816 | As I made no response she added:"Is it a new thing to you for a parent not to acknowledge illegitimate children?" |
42816 | Baptism, you say, is a token and a symbol, but do a people so far advanced in intelligence and perception, still require tokens and symbols? |
42816 | But tell me, is it really so?--do you upon the Earth not suffer the consequences of your acts?" |
42816 | But you exempt their property, perhaps?" |
42816 | By the way, have a cigar?" |
42816 | By- and- by, I appealed to him:"Tell me, Severnius, what does it mean?" |
42816 | Do n''t the waters ever get mixed?" |
42816 | Do not yours?" |
42816 | Do women never take a hand in state affairs on the Earth?" |
42816 | Do you people never drink wine at your social gatherings?" |
42816 | Do you wonder, sir, that a world should love the man who brought love into that world,--who brought peace, good- will, to men?" |
42816 | He smiled as he went on,"This labor problem the Creator gave us was a knotty one, was n''t it? |
42816 | How do you get such wonderful results? |
42816 | How shall I describe that house? |
42816 | I asked;"to what end?" |
42816 | I cried, as the wonder of it broke upon my understanding,"and how many millions of years has it taken your race to attain to this perfection?" |
42816 | I disregarded this, and returned:"Did he not get a divorce?" |
42816 | I finally asked, nodding toward the beautiful enclosure still in view:"How do they manage about this business; do they practice any secrecy?" |
42816 | I looked at her aghast; did she know what she was saying; did she mean what her words implied? |
42816 | I may not do that which is proper for another to do,--why? |
42816 | I often asked myself,"Why is it that we are always looking at her with a kind of inquiry in our glances?--what is it that we expect her to do?" |
42816 | I presently broke the silence with a bold, perhaps an inexcusable question,"Elodia, do you intend ever to marry?" |
42816 | I responded, and inquired,"What kind of standing have these men in the outside world?" |
42816 | I saw you look into that car; did you observe the lady in blue?" |
42816 | I was thinking of this when Elodia suddenly put the question to me:"Are you married?" |
42816 | Is This Your Son, My Lord? |
42816 | Is a man liable to arrest or condign punishment, if he happens to burlesque any of the higher callings under the impression that he is a genius?" |
42816 | Is it a formal title, or was it bestowed in recognition of the quality of the man?" |
42816 | Is it because they are incapable, or-- unreliable?" |
42816 | Is not that a pretty fable?" |
42816 | Is she to favor us?" |
42816 | Is the club you speak of composed entirely of women?" |
42816 | My look of prolonged amazement called out the usual question:"Have you no such class in any of your highly civilized countries?" |
42816 | Pray You, Sir, Whose Daughter? |
42816 | Severnius startled me suddenly with another question:"What, may I ask, is your theory of Man''s creation?" |
42816 | Shall you pray for a personal blessing or favor which might mean disaster or injury to another? |
42816 | She withdrew her eyes from my face with a faint smile and covered the question by another:"You intend to marry, I suppose?" |
42816 | Suppose she should repent? |
42816 | Tell me, Severnius, when did your women wake up?" |
42816 | Tell me, what is it that usually prompts people to marry?" |
42816 | There seemed to be a regret in his voice, and I asked:"Why did not you remain there?" |
42816 | This prompted me to ask the familiar question:"And how do you manage the labor problem?" |
42816 | We belong to the same system, and why should not the people of Mars have the sentence for sin revoked, as well as the people of Earth? |
42816 | What does she do with her evenings?" |
42816 | What does the saying mean,''I asked for bread, and ye gave me a stone?'' |
42816 | What is the camellia beside the rose? |
42816 | What is the name of the superlative creature you were so charmed with, Severnius?" |
42816 | What of the Morrow? |
42816 | What would be the result of such a marriage, based upon simple sex- love?" |
42816 | When I could command my voice again I asked:"Does this little one know that she is your child,--does any one else know?" |
42816 | Who Lies? |
42816 | Why could they not accept the truth from his lips?" |
42816 | Why does she not give her time and attention to the softer graces, to feminine occupations?" |
42816 | Why should not we have been provided with an intercessor? |
42816 | Why should the free wish for fetters? |
42816 | You would not have me think that there are two varieties of human nature on your planet, corresponding with the sexes, would you? |
42816 | and how do you manage it,--how, for instance, can you prevent them from voting?" |
42816 | but how?" |
42816 | but"--a curious expression touched her face, a questioning, doubting, puzzled look--"we are speaking honestly, are we not?" |
42816 | call them what you like, but tell me, what happens when there is an_ exposà ©_? |
42816 | do the women propose?" |
42816 | does an honest man-- a gentleman-- ever marry such a woman as that?" |
42816 | has not Elodia told you? |
42816 | have you no tenderness, Elodia? |
42816 | no heart- need of these ties and affections,--which I have always been taught are so precious to woman?" |
42816 | then you must all be rich?" |
42816 | what shall we do?" |
55505 | ''But,''asked the attorney,''what if she should suspicion something, and drop a letter to Ganoe into some street box? 55505 ''You worked it well,''said the stranger,''but what shall I write to Ganoe? |
55505 | Am I to understand that you have an old world here, and is this the new, just as we have it in the outer world? |
55505 | And do you not intend,asked Oqua,"to reveal your identity to him in some way so that when you return, no concealments will be necessary? |
55505 | And do you tell me this as sober truth? |
55505 | And from this,I said,"am I to infer that you think America is about ready for such an uplifting of the masses? |
55505 | And how could I get along without assistance? 55505 And how,"I asked,"would you state these purposes so as to include all you have given me, in the fewest possible number of words?" |
55505 | And now Dr. Day,continued my visitor,"will you undertake to discharge the trust committed to you by Jack Adams?" |
55505 | And was it,I asked,"necessity that compelled the founders of this district to organize this system of community life?" |
55505 | And what is that greater work? |
55505 | And what preparation do you advise? |
55505 | And why should I not have? |
55505 | And,I asked,"what is to hinder you from telling me something about these ruins now, and what they have to do with Norrena''s economic lessons?" |
55505 | But are we not under obligations to those who assist us when in trouble? |
55505 | But how am I to develop this God- like character? |
55505 | But how are all these numerous employes on your railroads, in your stores and the various departments of industry paid? |
55505 | But how is it,I asked,"that you have such a realizing sense of the horrors of poverty, when you have always had an abundance?" |
55505 | But how is this? |
55505 | But how long do you think it will be,asked the Captain,"before we will have an opportunity to get the ship clear of the ice?" |
55505 | But how,I asked,"can you get at them?" |
55505 | But how,I asked,"do you account for the change?" |
55505 | But the question is, How can they make the change while bound hand and foot under the profit system? |
55505 | But was there not some danger that designing people might get control and defeat the purposes of the organization? |
55505 | But what do they use? |
55505 | But what if I object to the arrangement? |
55505 | But what observations can we make,I asked,"that could not be made from the surface? |
55505 | But what''s the matter? |
55505 | But where is the light, and what can I do to shed it broadcast among them? |
55505 | But why,I asked,"do you now, after centuries of abundance, still make these lessons so prominent in your educational system?" |
55505 | But why,I asked,"is it that this concave sphere does not shut off the light from the sun?" |
55505 | But would you,I asked,"discourage these specific measures at this time because the masses are poor?" |
55505 | But,I asked,"on what grounds do you expect him to object?" |
55505 | But,I asked,"why should you give up this work, now that you have it so far completed, into my inexperienced hands? |
55505 | But,I asked,"why this equality of dividends? |
55505 | But,asked the Captain,"do you permit no private ownership of property at all in these communities?" |
55505 | But,asked the Captain,"have you no arrangement by which a man and his wife could get out on these wild lands and make a home for themselves?" |
55505 | But,said Norrena,"if she was a person he could not love and respect as a wife, was it not better that he should refuse to consummate the relation?" |
55505 | Do you intend to say,I asked,"that this is the original boat that found its way into the inner world a thousand years ago? |
55505 | Do you not often find this difficult? |
55505 | Do you propose to go alone? 55505 Do you think the danger so pressing as that?" |
55505 | Do you think they would refuse to make the change from profit to equity, if they had the opportunity to do so? |
55505 | Have your new surroundings led you to believe that we can set aside the laws of nature? |
55505 | How can a people who are bound hand and foot, save themselves? |
55505 | How could he reproach you, Nequa, when he realized that it was all for love of him? |
55505 | How far will it be? |
55505 | How is it,I asked,"that you now take the birds for our guide, something you have never done before?" |
55505 | How is this? |
55505 | How so? |
55505 | How,I asked,"can that be, when millions are asking to hear them read all at once?" |
55505 | If all these ideals have been realized, is it not a promise, or a prophecy, that our ideals of to- day, will be realized in the future? 55505 If they were indeed so poor,"I asked,"how was it possible for them to break the chains by which they were bound?" |
55505 | Is this the same plan that you outlined in your address? |
55505 | Is this true? |
55505 | My God,I exclaimed,"this can not be, it must not be, but how can I prevent it? |
55505 | Then it seems,I said,"that this was something of a religious as well as a business organization?" |
55505 | Then you are not a total stranger to these scenes? |
55505 | Then, do you believe this theory? |
55505 | Then,I said,"would you have me ignore this, to me, most singular system of commencing the education of children before they are born?" |
55505 | Well Jack, what do you think of it? |
55505 | Well, what of that? |
55505 | Were these exchanges incorporated as joint stock companies? |
55505 | Were you not talking Altrurian philosophy all the time we were together on the Ice King? 55505 What is that?" |
55505 | What''s that? 55505 Where can I find him?" |
55505 | Why feel under such obligations to anyone? |
55505 | Why go by way of the tunnel? |
55505 | Why hopeless? |
55505 | Why not? |
55505 | Why should they get more than people who are engaged in laborious occupations? |
55505 | Why what is the matter? |
55505 | Why,I asked,"have you had any intimation of the kind?" |
55505 | Will you please explain how this is done? |
55505 | Will you,I asked,"please explain just what you regard as the natural law of human development?" |
55505 | Wo n''t you give me the particulars? |
55505 | Would they expect any such sweeping results from selling their trade to the firm that would give them the largest rebate on prices? 55505 You certainly do not mean to say that mentally active people are not liable to get sick in this inner world?" |
55505 | A country or a city?" |
55505 | A strange voice asked:"''Where is your young wife?'' |
55505 | Addressing Battell, Captain Ganoe asked:"What do you think of the situation?" |
55505 | Am I to be brought into the presence of not one, but a world full of these God- like characters?" |
55505 | And Yankee like I said:"I reply by asking, what do you think, Captain? |
55505 | And why had the usual decrepit appearance of age disappeared from view? |
55505 | And,"turning to me, he continued,"what do you have to say, Jack? |
55505 | Anything going wrong?" |
55505 | Are you willing to register and assume the duties incumbent upon citizenship?" |
55505 | As I stepped on board, I met an officer who accosted me with the familiar salutation:"Hello Jack, what will you have?" |
55505 | At the request of the applicants for registration as man and wife, I have invited you as witnesses and will ask if any one objects to their union?" |
55505 | Battell looked his astonishment as he asked:"Is this heaven? |
55505 | But Captain, how many do you have with you?" |
55505 | But is it really necessary for us to be numbered and labeled? |
55505 | But what can you do, and what evidence have you to offer that you can render valuable service in an expedition of this character? |
55505 | But what do you infer from that?" |
55505 | But what had become of the crew? |
55505 | But what of this excursion beneath the waters of the lake? |
55505 | But what shall be done with your baggage when it arrives?" |
55505 | But when was it built? |
55505 | But where in the world did all that sand come from? |
55505 | But whither would they carry us? |
55505 | But who will go with me? |
55505 | But why are the others still helpless? |
55505 | But why did you risk your life to save mine?" |
55505 | But why speculate? |
55505 | By what means can this be accomplished?" |
55505 | Can you explain it to me?" |
55505 | Can you explain the change in his case while the others are still helpless?" |
55505 | Can you explain to me why I can not turn my glass to the zenith and see the opposite side of the concave?" |
55505 | Can you undertake the work?" |
55505 | Can you, Captain Ganoe?" |
55505 | Captain Battell, who was walking by my side, broke in upon my meditations by asking:"What do you think of it, Jack? |
55505 | Could this earth be a hollow shell with an outer and inner surface? |
55505 | Could we escape? |
55505 | Did you know him?'' |
55505 | Did you not meet an officer who could attend to your wants?" |
55505 | Do you see that herculean sailor rushing around down there and evidently making himself useful in caring for his comrades?" |
55505 | Have I been asleep?" |
55505 | Have you ever thought of these strange effects which flow from trivial causes?" |
55505 | Have you forgotten what I told you last evening? |
55505 | Have you no opinions to offer, and nothing to suggest?" |
55505 | How are the prices fixed, what is the standard and how are balances settled?" |
55505 | How did the multitudes, especially in this city and on this coast, escape the grasp of these money- kings who also owned the real estate? |
55505 | How do you account for it?" |
55505 | How do you expect to get up steam without fuel?" |
55505 | How do you like this enchanted land?" |
55505 | How is it that they have all merged into one type, ranging in complexion from blonde to brunette?" |
55505 | How is this?" |
55505 | How long have I been here?" |
55505 | How much are you willing to do toward this work of saving the world? |
55505 | How was it possible to preserve it so long?" |
55505 | How will it suit you?" |
55505 | I aroused him from his reverie with the inquiry:"Is this Captain Ganoe?" |
55505 | I felt the need of just such sympathy as hers, and why should I spurn it from me? |
55505 | I had traversed every latitude from Greenland to the South frigid zone and was now mentally asking"Where shall I go next?" |
55505 | I met MacNair in the dining hall and in his usual cheerful manner he asked:"Well, Jack, how did you rest?" |
55505 | I thought Battell intended that two of your sailors should go with you?" |
55505 | If the movement here was started by the very poor, how did they get money for the necessary cash capital?" |
55505 | In San Francisco--"Where shall I go next?" |
55505 | Is he still living?" |
55505 | Is not this putting on a little too much style for these regions of eternal ice?" |
55505 | Oqua then raising her eyes with a mischievous twinkle, asked with a comical expression of countenance:"Shall it be Jack Adams?" |
55505 | Recovering himself, he advanced and grasped Captain Ganoe by the hand exclaiming:"How did you get here? |
55505 | Shaking his hand again I asked:"Will we ever have a world of truth such as has been the dream of every altruist?" |
55505 | The question was, Who got the difference between the amount received by the actual producer and the price paid by the consumer? |
55505 | Then turning to Captain Ganoe he asked:"What do you think of our prospect of success?" |
55505 | Then why was it that I could not compose myself to read or write? |
55505 | Was it fair to those who purchased large quantities of goods, to require them to share equally with those who purchased on a small scale?" |
55505 | We were more than a little mystified at the turn the conversation had taken and as it related to us Captain Ganoe asked:"What does this mean? |
55505 | What I want to know is, why these gaseous contents at the center, are opaque while the air at the surface is not?" |
55505 | What could it mean? |
55505 | What could it mean? |
55505 | What do you think of it?" |
55505 | What is Orbitello? |
55505 | What is the matter? |
55505 | What is to come next? |
55505 | What right have we to the fruits of the labor of others to whom, as yet, we have been of no benefit whatever?" |
55505 | What shall I say to him?'' |
55505 | What was it that had so entirely taken possession of my consciousness? |
55505 | What were you thinking about?" |
55505 | What will be your address?" |
55505 | When this time comes, what would you do?" |
55505 | Where are we? |
55505 | Where are your men, that women are permitted to engage in these hazardous enterprises?" |
55505 | Where did they come from?" |
55505 | Where did you come from and whither are you going? |
55505 | Where did you come from, and what is all this rigging for?" |
55505 | Who could tell? |
55505 | Why should I be continually thinking of him? |
55505 | Why such a contrast between humanity here in this great communal home, and humanity in the tenement houses in the large cities of the outer world? |
55505 | Why was it I felt this restless longing for something that seemed just beyond my reach? |
55505 | Why were the people in this communal home more robust, more beautiful and more kind and cheerful than the people of the outer world? |
55505 | Why would not mental suggestion have the same effect on them?" |
55505 | Will Captain Ganoe and yourself, with your external world experience and observation be there to superintend the work?" |
55505 | Will you come to Lake Byblis and start from there? |
55505 | Would not the tendency of such a movement be, to still further curtail the demand for labor, by depressing the the price of products?" |
55505 | You certainly can not think that women are out of place when they are protecting their own offspring?" |
55505 | You have women commanding fleets in the air, and if so, why not have them navigating the ocean and commanding your armies and navies?" |
55505 | and for what purpose? |
55505 | asked Captain Ganoe,"and should we not repay them for the burdens we impose on them?" |
55505 | or shall I send it to some other point? |
7401 | A little while ago you told me that you loved me: has that feeling faded so soon, or do you take any pleasure in wounding those you love? |
7401 | Ah, my daughter,he said with a smile,"shall I guess what has inspired you to- day? |
7401 | And after you have told her, Edra, shall you make known her reply to me? |
7401 | And are there no more of them-- have you told me the names of_ all_ the great people you have ever known or heard of? |
7401 | And do you love me, Yoletta? |
7401 | And do you not know that you have offended me? |
7401 | And have you ever undergone that sad punishment of being shut up by yourself for many days, Yoletta? |
7401 | And if you know that,I pleaded,"why do you not now impart the knowledge that can make me whole? |
7401 | And is it not sweet to kiss when you love? 7401 And seriously, honestly, you are thirty- one years old?" |
7401 | And when did this happen? |
7401 | And why do you look so sad? |
7401 | And you, my darling, how long is it since you closed those sweet eyelids that seem so heavy? |
7401 | Are you alone so ignorant of these things that you speak of building and of pulling down a house? |
7401 | Are you happier now? |
7401 | Are you not, then, able to read-- have you been taught absolutely nothing? |
7401 | Are you, then, going to condemn me without hearing me speak, or telling me anything about it? 7401 Are you? |
7401 | But do you know, Yoletta, that you have not said anything about them? 7401 But she was a mother, Smith, do you not understand? |
7401 | But surely your name is Smith? |
7401 | But the trees of the forest, to which you compare a house, spring from seed, do they not? 7401 But why do you care so much for me?" |
7401 | But why has she that strange, haunting expression on her face? 7401 Can you not read the letters?" |
7401 | Can you tell me,I said pleasantly,"what is the name of your nearest town or city? |
7401 | Come with me to her now: if you feel like that, she will be kind to you-- how should it be otherwise? |
7401 | Dear mother, may I say something? |
7401 | Did I not tell you so? 7401 Did you know that?" |
7401 | Do you know that I am enjoying two distinct pleasures at one and the same time? |
7401 | Do you mean to say,she answered,"that you do not know I have a mother-- that there is a mother of the house?" |
7401 | Do you need to ask, Yoletta? 7401 Do you not know that you are giving me pain?" |
7401 | Do you not know-- can you not guess? 7401 Do you not not know, sweetest, why I kiss you in that way? |
7401 | Do you not remember going to sleep on my breast? |
7401 | Do you not then know that it is unlawful to entertain such a thought as you have expressed? |
7401 | Do you see how badly it is colored? 7401 Do you think that you will be able to teach me to sing also?" |
7401 | Do you wonder why I smile? |
7401 | Does it never happen that a house is overthrown by some natural force-- by floods, or subsidence of the earth, or is destroyed by lightning or fire? |
7401 | Edra? 7401 Europa? |
7401 | Forgive you, my daughter? 7401 Have I made another mistake?" |
7401 | Have I? 7401 Have you any doubts on the subject?" |
7401 | Have you indeed? |
7401 | Have you never seen any like them before? |
7401 | Have you nothing more to ask? |
7401 | Have you nothing to tell me? |
7401 | How can I tell you?--how could you imagine it if I were to tell you? |
7401 | How can you love any one more than that, Smith? |
7401 | How should I know, Yoletta? |
7401 | I am so sorry I hurt you, Yoletta-- may I call you Yoletta? |
7401 | I have not heard you address any one as mother; besides, how is one to know anything in a strange place unless he is told? |
7401 | If I bind myself to work one year,said I,"shall I have to wait until the end of that time before I get the clothes?" |
7401 | If you know,said I,"that I am grieving for Yoletta, can you not also guess why I hesitate and hide my face from you?" |
7401 | Is it a statue of some one who lived in this house? |
7401 | Is there any other person dearer to your heart than I am? |
7401 | Is there no decay, then, of the materials composing a house? |
7401 | It is very pretty work-- may I look at it? |
7401 | May I explain my meaning? |
7401 | May I kiss the other cheek now? |
7401 | May I put it to some useful purpose-- may I do what I like with it? |
7401 | May I read to you from this book? |
7401 | May I sit down near you? |
7401 | Mine for ever, without a doubt, darling? |
7401 | Must you go? |
7401 | My daughter, tell me how and why you did this? |
7401 | No; why is it? 7401 Oh no; what do you mean, Smith?" |
7401 | Oh yes, quite different-- have you never looked at yourself? 7401 Oh"--she laughed--"do you think it will be so pleasant sitting by me here? |
7401 | Oh, I can not tell you how glad; but am I not here in your arms to show it? 7401 Oh, Smith, can you not guess so simple a thing?" |
7401 | Oh, Smith, how do you know? |
7401 | Oh, how dark it is-- where am I? |
7401 | Oh, may I? |
7401 | Once I thought that you only of all in the house would never love me: what has changed your feelings towards me, for I know that they have changed? |
7401 | Surely,I said,"you have heard of such cities as Paris, Vienna, Rome, Athens, Babylon, Jerusalem?" |
7401 | Tell me why, Edra? |
7401 | Tell me, Yoletta, who is this? |
7401 | Tell me, child,he said, putting his hand on her head, and regarding her with misty eyes,"who shall attend you in your seclusion?" |
7401 | The words? |
7401 | Was he your father? |
7401 | Well, listen for one moment, and tell me how long does a year last? |
7401 | What I meant to ask was, will you let me kiss you where I like-- on your chin, for instance, or just where I like? |
7401 | What are you thinking of, Yoletta, that you look so serious? |
7401 | What do I mean? 7401 What do you mean by that? |
7401 | What do you mean, Edra? 7401 What is it that you wish?" |
7401 | What is it you wish to say to me? |
7401 | What is the matter, Smith, you seem ill? |
7401 | What is the rainbow lily? |
7401 | What made you have those feelings? |
7401 | What shall I do alone?. |
7401 | What, then, do you mean by a city? |
7401 | What, then, happened to earth, and how long did that undreaming slumber last from which I woke to find things so altered? 7401 Where have you been all the evening, for you were not at supper?" |
7401 | Who are all these people you have named? |
7401 | Why are you troubled, Smith- have I said anything to hurt you? |
7401 | Why did you not come in to supper, Smith? |
7401 | Why do you kiss my hand? |
7401 | Why do you kiss my mouth in that violent way? |
7401 | Why is green the principal color in my clothes, when no other person in the house wears more than a very little of it? |
7401 | Why is your mind troubled, my son? |
7401 | Why, look at the color of my eyes and skin-- would this green tint be suitable for me to wear? |
7401 | Why, that is my name-- what else should you call me? |
7401 | Why? |
7401 | Will you lead the singing? |
7401 | Will you not tell me? |
7401 | Will you sing something now? |
7401 | Will you sit by me here, resting your head on me, and sleep a little now? |
7401 | Would you really do that, Yoletta? |
7401 | Yes, certainly-- did you not know that? |
7401 | Yes, often; for what other punishment is there? 7401 Yes; but is that strange-- are not all people beautiful?" |
7401 | Yes; but oh, why did you not wake me sooner? 7401 Yes? |
7401 | You ask me, How, then, do we know this thing? 7401 Your singing? |
7401 | A month is called a year with you, and that would make you, let me see-- how much is twelve times thirty- one? |
7401 | A painful silence ensued, then, lifting her tear- stained face, she said:"Oh father, what must my punishment be?" |
7401 | And all for what, since it pleases not heaven nor accords with our own desires? |
7401 | And are you not glad to be loved?" |
7401 | And if a whole year''s labor was only sufficient to pay for a suit of clothing, how many years of toil would be required to win Yoletta''s hand? |
7401 | And then, remembering Yoletta''s words on the hills, I added:"Do you not know of more than one kind of love?" |
7401 | And was she not a being of a higher order than myself? |
7401 | And were these people all really brothers and sisters? |
7401 | And who will then inherit our place? |
7401 | And why do you not kiss that?" |
7401 | And, most important of all, can you present it in a narrative or romance which will enable me to pass an idle hour not disagreeably? |
7401 | As she made no reply, I added somewhat lamely:"May I-- keep on holding it?" |
7401 | At length the old gentleman, pointing to the gold pieces, said:"What are these?" |
7401 | At length, to my surprise, the father, who had been regarding me for some time, said:"Will you lead, my son?" |
7401 | But am I so different from you all?" |
7401 | But ca n''t you answer me-- who were they, and what did they do? |
7401 | But how had mortals always fared when they aspired to mate with celestials? |
7401 | But how was I to lead up to it? |
7401 | But the statue-- when was that made and placed here?" |
7401 | But what have these small pieces of metal to do with the question of your garments? |
7401 | But what in the name of goodness was I to say to this beautiful woman who was sitting by me? |
7401 | But why do you turn your face from me?" |
7401 | But you have not said one word about my singing-- did you not like it?" |
7401 | But-- but do n''t you think you can draw it mild? |
7401 | Can you bear me in your arms?" |
7401 | Can you explain to us what you mean by dressing in accordance with the fashion?" |
7401 | Can you not understand that-- has no man ever loved you with a love like that, my sister?" |
7401 | Did she not understand my meaning now-- had not my words brought back some sweet and sorrowful memory? |
7401 | Did you not see that we were astonished and grieved at your silence when you came, and we waited in vain for you to speak?" |
7401 | Do I look nice; and will you like me any better now?" |
7401 | Do tell me what you mean, Yoletta?" |
7401 | Do you know what love is, darling? |
7401 | Do you love me a thousand times more than any one else in the world?" |
7401 | Do you not know what that means?" |
7401 | Do you not think I love you enough? |
7401 | Do you not understand that?" |
7401 | Do you remember that evening on the hill, when you vexed me with questions, and I could not understand your words? |
7401 | For are not all houses, like the forest of trees, the human race, the world we live in, eternal?" |
7401 | Good heavens, what does it mean? |
7401 | Have you lived in the moon, Smith, that I have to tell you these things?" |
7401 | He inclined his head and said,"Yes?" |
7401 | How old are you, dear?" |
7401 | How would she look after that long seclusion? |
7401 | How, then, am I to pay for them if all I possess is not considered of any value?" |
7401 | How, then, do we know this thing? |
7401 | I exclaimed, sitting bolt upright on my straw bed,"am I a rational being or an inebriated donkey, or what, to have consented to such a proposal? |
7401 | I know it is awfully rude to inquire a lady''s age, but what am I to do? |
7401 | I suppose you have heard the names of Napoleon, Wellington, Nelson, Dante, Luther, Calvin, Bismarck, Voltaire?" |
7401 | I was never good at guessing, but the result of my cogitations was one happy idea-- to ask Yoletta whether she had a living mother or not? |
7401 | Is it not so, Yoletta?" |
7401 | Is it sinful to wish for any adornments other than wisdom and sobriety, a meek and loving spirit, good works, and other things of the kind? |
7401 | Is it strange you should have a taste common to all human beings?" |
7401 | It almost frightens me to ask another question, but do tell me how old your father is?" |
7401 | It is just the contrary-- how many twelves in thirty- one? |
7401 | Nevertheless we can not suppress all curiosity, or help asking one another, What is your dream-- your ideal? |
7401 | Not that I care two straws about the question myself, and I only hope they''ll never get it; but then I think it is so illogical-- don''t you?" |
7401 | Now I wonder whether the matter will be complicated with Leah-- that is, Edra? |
7401 | Oh, Smith, do you love me so much?" |
7401 | Oh, dear father, will you forgive me?" |
7401 | One day, after looking long and earnestly into my face, said my gentle teacher to me;"Do you know that you are changed? |
7401 | Pale, and sad too perhaps; and her sweet, soulful eyes-- oh, would I now see in them that new light for which I had watched and waited so long? |
7401 | Shall I tell you why? |
7401 | Shall I tell you----""My face? |
7401 | Tell me if this is not so?" |
7401 | Tell me, have I not done as you wished, and given myself to you, body and soul? |
7401 | The old man looked at me with a grave smile-- that smile was fast becoming intolerable-- and said:"Are you so fond of honey, Smith? |
7401 | Then, with a half- puzzled smile, he added:"How could you possibly know unless you were told? |
7401 | This being so, why am I not overwhelmed at the thought of it? |
7401 | Was it a very contemptible ambition on my part? |
7401 | Was she unhappy?" |
7401 | What can you do in return for the garments you are anxious to possess? |
7401 | What had I to give in return for such a boon as that? |
7401 | What is money?" |
7401 | What lie have I told?" |
7401 | What was the meaning of this condition? |
7401 | What were their names, and what did they do to those who loved them-- can''t you tell me?" |
7401 | What would become of me, and of all those bright dreams of happiness, if she were to die? |
7401 | What you have told me has made me very happy-- what more can I wish to know?" |
7401 | Where were those talents now? |
7401 | Who has suffered like me in the house? |
7401 | Who is that strange- looking man watching us from behind the bushes?" |
7401 | Why ca n''t I forget its miserable customs, or, at any rate, stick to my own resolution to hold my tongue about them?" |
7401 | Why is this?" |
7401 | Why was this large family-- twenty- two members present, besides some absent pilgrims, as they are called-- composed only of adults? |
7401 | Will it ever vanish, like a mere phantom-- a wolf of the brain-- or will it come nearer and more near, to spring upon and rend me at the last? |
7401 | Will you kindly tell me Edra''s age?" |
7401 | Would it always be so-- would my heart consume itself to ashes, and kindle no fire in hers? |
7401 | Would it always be thus-- would she continue to embrace me, and speak words that simulated passion while no such feeling touched her heart? |
7401 | Would it not have been strange if I had not felt extremely unhappy?" |
7401 | Would not that be better than this cure-- this calm contentment held out to me? |
7401 | You love me also, though not with so great a love; but we_ do_ love each other, Smith, and you can confide in me?" |
7401 | You love your people with one kind of love, but me with a different love-- is it not so?" |
7401 | do you know what you are saying?" |
7401 | how far it is from this place, and how I can get there?" |
7401 | or have you only that general knowledge of the various arts which would enable you to assist the more skilled in preparing materials?" |
7401 | that was a vain dream, I could not be deceived by it; for who can say to the demon of passion in him, thus far shalt thou go and no further? |
6037 | After your announcement to the world, and all that has passed between us, would you humiliate me by the withdrawal of your gift? |
6037 | Am I a slave, to sit in solemn rapture at your feet and await your nod? |
6037 | Am I not your serene- browed Grecian goddess whose untamed eyes of primeval womanhood proclaim the end of slave marriage? |
6037 | Am I only to preach the truths that pay? |
6037 | Am I really losing my grasp of truth because I am giving up traditional dogmas? 6037 And a bachelor?" |
6037 | And if a man can work and will not work? |
6037 | And my boy told you to-- take-- this-- money, Ruth? |
6037 | And stooped to ask an usher instead of asking me? 6037 And then what?" |
6037 | And what are we doing? 6037 And what has Ruth to say?" |
6037 | And who would be the State? 6037 And will you be the only priest with her in the Temple of Humanity?" |
6037 | And would the oil of anointment of your new king, the walking delegate, be strong enough to temper the onion in his breath? 6037 And would you civilise it by giving free rein to impulses of nature that are subconscious, that lead direct to the reign of lust and murder? |
6037 | And yet you have faith? |
6037 | And you dare bring this message to me? 6037 And you have gone through with this every day for ten years?" |
6037 | And you love me like this when another has robbed my soul and body of their treasures and cast me aside? |
6037 | And you see all this in me? |
6037 | And you think me fit for such priesthood? |
6037 | And you will marry this other woman while Ruth lives? |
6037 | And you will not even give me a hint of this dream? |
6037 | And you''re not angry? |
6037 | Anderson, do you know anything of this case? 6037 Angry? |
6037 | Are we all ready? |
6037 | Are you hurt? |
6037 | Are you not my beloved daughter? 6037 But I have begun to question, father, whether our civilisation is civilised and worth preserving?" |
6037 | But how can I ever reconcile Van Meter''s commercialism with any living religion? |
6037 | But if he were dead you might love me? |
6037 | But may you not be mine in a nobler way than the cheap surrender to our senses? 6037 But why did they do it?" |
6037 | But why did you do this thing? 6037 Ca n''t stand the rustle of a woman''s dress?" |
6037 | Ca n''t you guess? |
6037 | Can such happiness be eternal? |
6037 | Can you forget the sunlit days of our past? |
6037 | Dare? 6037 Did I seek your wife? |
6037 | Do n''t you know that the triumph of Socialism will destroy the monogamic family? |
6037 | Do you ever get tired of preaching? 6037 Do you know an honest lawyer, dear?" |
6037 | Do you know the old legend of the opal? |
6037 | Do you know what you are saying? |
6037 | Frank, dear, have you gone mad? |
6037 | Frank, my darling, what is it? |
6037 | Frank, my darling, you can not think me so base? 6037 H''m; what are you going to do? |
6037 | Harness broken anywhere? |
6037 | Have you seen Kate? |
6037 | Have you told her? |
6037 | Hotel? 6037 How can I help it, Morris, if I love him?" |
6037 | How dare you crawl into this room to spy on me? |
6037 | How do you endure it? 6037 How do you know?" |
6037 | How long can you hold such a delusion, I wonder? |
6037 | How much are your stocks worth? |
6037 | Humiliate you? 6037 I suppose we will have to fight it out?" |
6037 | I wonder if she will promptly sue for a divorce? |
6037 | I wonder if they know when they go they sometimes leave my soul as empty and as lonely as those vacant pews? 6037 I wonder if you do?" |
6037 | I wonder if you know the meaning of such words; or if you are thinking of one thing and I of another? |
6037 | I wonder what pretty speeches you said to the stranger to- night? 6037 I wondered if you had felt that?" |
6037 | I''ll bet you had another quarrel with your wife last night? |
6037 | If men ask a sign to- day whether the Church of the living God exists in New York, what is our answer? 6037 Is it not so?" |
6037 | Is n''t it beautiful? |
6037 | Is that all? |
6037 | Is that your lawyer''s name? |
6037 | It does break one''s heart to see such children, does n''t it? |
6037 | Kate, are you crazy? |
6037 | May I ask, Doctor, if it is your intention to demand a vote to- night on this building scheme? |
6037 | May I kiss you, Governor? |
6037 | Must the strength of manhood be forever throttled by the impulses and mistakes of youth? 6037 No; but you will promise?" |
6037 | Pretty far apart for a pastor and deacon, then, do n''t you think? |
6037 | Religion? 6037 Shall we, too, desert? |
6037 | So fine as that? 6037 So tragic?" |
6037 | Surely not all so ugly and wretched as these? |
6037 | That load of red hay about to fall? |
6037 | Then who will save him? 6037 Then why not?" |
6037 | Think you could have talked back to- day? |
6037 | This is Doctor Gordon? |
6037 | Well, how many halves are there to you? 6037 Well, what is it?" |
6037 | Well, who cares? 6037 What could have possessed her to- night?" |
6037 | What difference if your master be changed by an election now and then? 6037 What do you mean?" |
6037 | What does Nature care? |
6037 | What is it? |
6037 | What is it? |
6037 | What is it? |
6037 | What is the charge against the woman? |
6037 | What shall I do? |
6037 | What was the matter with that man? |
6037 | What will they do to you, Frank? |
6037 | What woman, Ruth? |
6037 | What would you like to hear? |
6037 | What''s the matter? |
6037 | What''s the use to talk about mustard plaster? 6037 What''s the use? |
6037 | What? 6037 Where are you going down here?" |
6037 | Where have you been, Papa? 6037 Where is Frank?" |
6037 | Which wife? |
6037 | Who was that woman, Frank? |
6037 | Why ask it, Ruth? |
6037 | Why did n''t you come back to see me this week? |
6037 | Why did n''t you tell me that, Frank? |
6037 | Why did you keep your maid and send no answer to me? |
6037 | Why not? 6037 Why such childish terror? |
6037 | Why, Ludlow, what ails you? |
6037 | Why, what ails you, my dear? |
6037 | Why? |
6037 | Will she let him come back? |
6037 | Will you bear it, dear? |
6037 | Will you come to see me and meet my wife? |
6037 | Wo n''t you sit down? |
6037 | Yes; what were they doing there? |
6037 | Yet how can I control the beat of my heart? 6037 Yet, if you feel this for me, and I thus wait in love on another, how can I live the lie?" |
6037 | You do forgive me? |
6037 | You promised to call, of course? |
6037 | You see these hands? 6037 You think so?" |
6037 | You took the pains to find that out? |
6037 | You will keep it secret, Doctor? |
6037 | You will not kill me? |
6037 | You will not remember the foolish things I said to- night, dear? |
6037 | You wish me to be perfectly frank? |
6037 | You wish to know the whole truth? |
6037 | You''ll do it? |
6037 | You''ll help us, Doctor? |
6037 | You''re not afraid of losing me? |
6037 | ''Goest thou to see a woman? |
6037 | Ah, my boy, do you doubt my love?" |
6037 | Ai n''t none of your family got shoes?" |
6037 | Am I clear?" |
6037 | Am I not the mother of your children?" |
6037 | And do not your babies call me grandfather? |
6037 | And for what? |
6037 | Are you a king? |
6037 | As he came down from the pulpit, Ludlow took him by the hand and, with trembling voice, said:"Pastor, you know how I love you?" |
6037 | As they left, he said to Kate:"Did you see that crowd of two hundred men waiting at his door?" |
6037 | But what did he mean by an army of cripples greater than the havoc of war?" |
6037 | CHAPTER XV GOEST THOU TO SEE A WOMAN? |
6037 | Can gold pay for my heart''s desire? |
6037 | Can you guess what it is?" |
6037 | Could he continue to live with one woman if he loved another? |
6037 | Could she control herself? |
6037 | Could you love the Executive Officer of a Bureau for the Enforcement of Labour? |
6037 | Did we, Ma?" |
6037 | Do convicts become infatuated with their keepers? |
6037 | Do you know the one thing I asked when the past and present and future flashed before me in a moment?" |
6037 | Do you like me thus?" |
6037 | Do you remember?" |
6037 | Do you think that I will give her up? |
6037 | Do you understand?" |
6037 | Federate the hobos of all tongues and demand better straw in empty freight cars and shorter stops at sidings for express trains to pass?" |
6037 | For Ruth or Kate? |
6037 | Founded another church already?" |
6037 | Goest Thou to See a Woman? |
6037 | Gordon turned pale, nervously fumbled at his watch- chain and stammered:"Kate, you do n''t mean this?" |
6037 | Had he outgrown his first love? |
6037 | Had she not thought too much of her own rights and wrongs and too little of his hopes and burdens? |
6037 | Had they not been really united by that vital process which sometimes makes married people grow to look alike, and often to die on the same day? |
6037 | Has God given to her soul the power to look inside my heart and find its secret thoughts? |
6037 | Has he no rights-- have I no rights you must respect under such conditions?" |
6037 | Has he not a soul? |
6037 | He began to ask himself had not their being mingled somehow in essence? |
6037 | He raised his head, looked away, and softly said:"Ruth, could you never love me?" |
6037 | He sprang to his feet, suddenly exclaiming:"Well, what the devil is the matter?" |
6037 | He was so excited he could not speak for a moment, and again the low soft voice called,"What is it? |
6037 | He wondered why? |
6037 | Here-- now-- to- day-- die? |
6037 | Hogan?" |
6037 | How could I help the accident of such a meeting? |
6037 | How could I keep you from seeing it in my eyes, when you were free at last, and I knew you might be mine?" |
6037 | How could I prevent it if I wished?" |
6037 | How could such a thing be?" |
6037 | How is it possible?" |
6037 | How is the work going?" |
6037 | How many years of such life would it take to crush out of the human soul the last spark of hope and aspiration and reduce man to a beast?" |
6037 | I noticed you never preach now from the old text,''What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and forfeit his life?'' |
6037 | I wonder if you have weighed marriage in the balances and found it wanting?" |
6037 | I wonder if you recalled the decline of the French nation in modern times, and its causes, in arranging for your conquest of France? |
6037 | Insanity? |
6037 | Is Mrs. Gordon not coming?" |
6037 | Is it not so?" |
6037 | Is not man more than brute? |
6037 | Is that a reasonable request?" |
6037 | Is that you and the children in that car?" |
6037 | Is the spirit a delusion? |
6037 | Is this your boasted freedom-- freedom for man''s desires alone?" |
6037 | Love as many women as you like, but for decency''s sake-- can''t you honour your wife with a polite lie?" |
6037 | May I repeat your ceremony? |
6037 | May it not be better to die a man than live a beast? |
6037 | McDonald?" |
6037 | Now, I wish you to tell me honestly, face to face, why you object to me as the pastor of your church?" |
6037 | Now, will you do it?" |
6037 | Overman took her hand and, still trembling, said:"Do you know what that means?" |
6037 | Ruth fixed on him a look of melting tenderness and asked:"Do you not long for the open fields, the sky and sea, my dear?" |
6037 | Ruth,"he cried, bitterly,"why do you cling to this man? |
6037 | Shall I call at your home or office?" |
6037 | Shall I take the bull by the horns now and throw him and his Mammon- worshiping satellites out, or try to work such material into my future plans? |
6037 | She turned on him in a sudden flash and asked with frowning emphasis:"I wonder why you dragged me off on this idiotic trip?" |
6037 | Suppose under your maudlin cry of brotherhood you set up your fool''s paradise, where would reside the authority of your Commonwealth?" |
6037 | Surely there is yet one spark of love for him in your heart?" |
6037 | The employers ask,''Am I my brother''s keeper?'' |
6037 | The old man glanced uneasily about and said:"Son, is n''t this car going down the avenue?" |
6037 | The people inside, who had been halted, stretched their necks to see over the heads of those in front, crying:"What is it?" |
6037 | The price for my beloved? |
6037 | Was not sham and hypocrisy now the law of life, and was not Society perishing because of it? |
6037 | Was not this the one unpardonable sin and shame? |
6037 | Was she dead or alive? |
6037 | Was this power a threat to human liberty, or the highest expression of its hope? |
6037 | We thought you were never coming? |
6037 | What can endure?" |
6037 | What can we expect from such courts?" |
6037 | What did they care? |
6037 | What have you to say to this?" |
6037 | What if she found him with his arms about her and his lips on hers? |
6037 | What is it?" |
6037 | What is money between us? |
6037 | What is there to live for?" |
6037 | What more can you ask?" |
6037 | What principles? |
6037 | What sense of honour? |
6037 | What will be its name at Police Headquarters?" |
6037 | When he found his voice he whispered in wonder:"Mama, who is she?" |
6037 | Where will it end? |
6037 | Which division of this grand army will lead the movement in Gaul?" |
6037 | Which love? |
6037 | Who can bear witness to this miracle?" |
6037 | Who is it?" |
6037 | Who knows? |
6037 | Why did n''t you come? |
6037 | Why did you not say this to him?" |
6037 | Why does she keep asking me if I have lost faith in marriage? |
6037 | Why preach hell to people who expect to better their condition in the next world whether they go up or down? |
6037 | Why save the world if you destroy man?" |
6037 | Why was that woman in your study alone with you last night at half- past ten o''clock?" |
6037 | Why? |
6037 | Will he live, do you think?" |
6037 | Will you go?" |
6037 | With slow vehemence he said:"And do you think the man lives who will dare to take you from me?" |
6037 | Would she, womanlike, at the last moment contradict herself and withhold the full surrender of life? |
6037 | You asked me once for help-- did I fail you?" |
6037 | You both refuse, you who walk with your head among the stars, What then? |
6037 | You do forgive me?" |
6037 | You do n''t mean to apply such tommyrot to your own wife now that she''s yours?" |
6037 | You do n''t mean to tell me that your Socialist poppy plant has borne its opium fruit so soon? |
6037 | You know the way to the hotel, or shall I ring for my maid to show you?" |
6037 | You will not forget that I love you? |
6037 | You, who boldly say to the world that I am your free comrade, the mate and equal of man?" |
6037 | because he''s gone?" |
624 | A woman does not, then, necessarily leave the industrial service on marriage? |
624 | Am I never to know? 624 And is this merely a sample store? |
624 | And what was the motive of these great organizations? |
624 | And, in heaven''s name, who are the public enemies? |
624 | Are credit cards issued to the women just as to the men? |
624 | Are not the schools flooded with young men whose only motive is to avoid work? |
624 | Are the clever workmen content with a plan that ranks them with the indifferent? |
624 | Are the members of the liberal professions eligible to the presidency? 624 Are they France, England, Germany, or hunger, cold, and nakedness? |
624 | Are they not also men? |
624 | Are we not your friends? 624 Are you sure it is not you who are blind?" |
624 | Are you sure,she asked,"that you are quite done with those terrible sensations you had that morning?" |
624 | Bach must be at the keys of that organ; but where is the organ? |
624 | But did not ladies find that very impertinent? |
624 | But does it not come over you as astounding to sit at table with me, seeing who I am? |
624 | But having no control over the labor of their people, or means of hiring it, how can they do anything? |
624 | But how about mere pleasure trips; tours of observation? 624 But how are the prices of foreign goods settled, since there is no competition?" |
624 | But how do you manage it? 624 But how do you recompense these assistants, since you have no money?" |
624 | But how is it with us who stand on this height which they gazed up to? 624 But say there were a thousand shops in a city, hundreds, perhaps, of the same sort, how could even the idlest find time to make their rounds?" |
624 | But what are the balances finally settled with, seeing that you have no money? |
624 | But what if a nation, having a monopoly of some natural product, should refuse to supply it to the others, or to one of them? |
624 | But who defends the accused? |
624 | But why did you put up with such a shockingly inconvenient arrangement when you saw its faults so plainly? |
624 | But with no state legislatures, and Congress meeting only once in five years, how do you get your legislation done? |
624 | But you have at least municipal governments besides the one central authority? |
624 | But,said I,"if the government prints the papers at the public expense, how can it fail to control their policy? |
624 | By the way,said I,"talking of literature, how are books published now? |
624 | Decidedly I shall not,I replied,"but how is it practicable?" |
624 | Decoration Day? |
624 | Did I understand you rightly,I inquired,"that this musical programme covers the entire twenty- four hours? |
624 | Did you only just guess that? 624 Did you suppose that we consider the incapable class we are talking of objects of charity?" |
624 | Did you think I was going to play or sing to you? |
624 | Did you, indeed? |
624 | Do I understand,I said,"that it is a judge who states each side of the case as well as a judge who hears it?" |
624 | Do the waiters, also, volunteer? |
624 | Do you ask what we look for when unnumbered generations shall have passed away? 624 Do you know your genealogy well enough to tell me who your forbears were in the Boston of my day?" |
624 | Do you mean that all the clerks misrepresented their goods in your day? |
624 | Do you mean your memory is gone? |
624 | Do you possibly mean that all have the same share? |
624 | Do you really think it necessary to ask me that? |
624 | Does it indeed seem so to you? |
624 | Does it, indeed, seem so to you? |
624 | Exactly; but what made the strikes so formidable? |
624 | Excuse me,replied my host,"but do you smoke?" |
624 | Had you many to mourn you? |
624 | How about periodicals and newspapers? |
624 | How am I to hear it if I stay at home? |
624 | How are these magistrates selected? |
624 | How came I here? |
624 | How can prices be regulated in a country where there is no competition between buyers or sellers? |
624 | How can that possibly be? |
624 | How can you do that, I should like to know, when no two men''s powers are the same? |
624 | How do you carry on commerce without money? |
624 | How do you feel? |
624 | How do you manage in the thinly settled rural districts? |
624 | How do you manage,I asked,"when the books of any two nations do not balance? |
624 | How happened it,was Dr. Leete''s reply,"that your workers were able to produce more than so many savages would have done? |
624 | How is he chosen? |
624 | How is it,I asked,"that this difference is consistent with the fact that all citizens have the same income?" |
624 | How is the staff of contributors recompensed, since they can not be paid in money? |
624 | How is this class of common laborers recruited? |
624 | How is this distribution managed? |
624 | How, then, do you avoid a revolution every pay day? |
624 | How, then, do you regulate wages? |
624 | I admit the claim of this class to our pity, but how could they who produced nothing claim a share of the product as a right? |
624 | I am to understand, then, that the lame, the blind, the sick, and the impotent, are as well off as the most efficient and have the same income? |
624 | If you do n''t spend your allowance, I suppose it accumulates? |
624 | If you wanted to buy something of your neighbor, could you transfer part of your credit to him as consideration? |
624 | Is it Sunday, then? |
624 | Is not that ruinous to the discipline of the guild, by tempting the candidates to intrigue for the support of the workers under them? |
624 | Is the term of service in this industrial army for life? |
624 | Is there such an arrangement in the room assigned to me? |
624 | It was a good idea, was it not, Mr. West? 624 May I ask how you knew that you might not have found something to suit you better in some of the other stores? |
624 | May I ask of what year? |
624 | Not strange? |
624 | Now, do you know, that seems very curious to me? 624 Of what year?" |
624 | Oh, Mr. West, where have you been? |
624 | On myself? |
624 | On what? |
624 | Only perhaps? |
624 | Pardon me, the 30th of what? |
624 | The army is not allowed to vote for President? |
624 | The clerk has, then, nothing to say about the goods he sells? |
624 | We shall see,replied my companion;"you say that it was May 30th when you went to sleep?" |
624 | Were sidewalk coverings not used at all? |
624 | What are your grounds for believing that the red flag party was subsidized? |
624 | What can I possibly do? |
624 | What certainty can there be that the value of a man''s labor will recompense the nation for its outlay on him? 624 What concern could it possibly be to the clerks whether people bought or not?" |
624 | What do you mean? |
624 | What if you have to spend more than your card in any one year? |
624 | What is that word''menial''? 624 What may this badge be?" |
624 | What should I have done if you had not cared for me? |
624 | When there are more who want to enter a particular trade than there is room for, how do you decide between the applicants? |
624 | When you want a doctor,I asked,"do you simply apply to the proper bureau and take any one that may be sent?" |
624 | When? |
624 | Where am I? |
624 | Where is the clerk? |
624 | Who does determine it, then? |
624 | Who does your house- work, then? |
624 | Who is capable of self- support? |
624 | Who sells you things when you want to buy them? |
624 | Why in the world should it? |
624 | Why on earth should she? 624 Why, last night, of course; I said so, did n''t I? |
624 | Would you like to see her picture? |
624 | Yes, of what year, if you please? 624 You are not sure, then?" |
624 | You do n''t mean that the man who pleads not guilty is thereupon discharged? |
624 | You do not, then, believe that this is the year 2000? |
624 | You have given up the jury system, then? |
624 | You remember your first waking, no doubt,he pursued,"and your surprise when I told you how long you had been asleep?" |
624 | ''What shall I eat and drink, and wherewithal shall I be clothed?'' |
624 | Am I to understand that crime is nowadays looked upon as the recurrence of an ancestral trait?" |
624 | And now can you tell me a little more explicitly when it was that you fell into that sleep, the date, I mean?" |
624 | And were not these others, these unfortunate and crippled brothers whom you cast out, joint inheritors, co- heirs with you? |
624 | Are you strong enough to follow me upstairs?" |
624 | Are you sure that you quite forgive Edith Bartlett for marrying any one else? |
624 | But are you so blind as not to see why they are not enough to make me happy? |
624 | But did they think only of themselves? |
624 | But do you blame me for being curious?" |
624 | But how could I live without service to the world? |
624 | But it is over now, is it not? |
624 | But would you really like to hear some music?" |
624 | By what title does the individual claim his particular share? |
624 | Ca n''t I do something for you?" |
624 | Can you conceive of such a thing as living a hundred years in four days? |
624 | Can you ever forgive us?" |
624 | Can you see how such a thing might be?" |
624 | Can you think of any service constituting a stronger claim on the nation''s gratitude than bearing and nursing the nation''s children? |
624 | Could he take more than a very limited satisfaction, even in a palatial apartment, if the windows on all four sides opened into stable yards? |
624 | Could it be that I was the victim of some sort of conspiracy? |
624 | Did they live in Boston?" |
624 | Did you ever think, Mr. West, that the bank is the heart of the business system? |
624 | Do n''t you care more about what we think of you than what he does who never saw you? |
624 | Do n''t you see that it is because I have been mad enough to love you?" |
624 | Do n''t you see that, however unsatisfactory the first adjustment might be, the mistakes would soon correct themselves? |
624 | Do none of you know what sights the sun and stars look down on in this city, that you can think and talk of anything else? |
624 | Do you find it as complex as you expected?" |
624 | Do you not believe that spirits sometimes come back to the world to fulfill some work that lay near their hearts? |
624 | Do you not know that close to your doors a great multitude of men and women, flesh of your flesh, live lives that are one agony from birth to death? |
624 | Does it also hold of those who can do nothing at all?" |
624 | Finally she whispered,"Had we not better go out now? |
624 | Had the organization of the nation as an industrial unit done away with the states? |
624 | Had they no compassion for fellow beings from whom fortune only distinguished them? |
624 | Have the societies of the Old World also been remodeled?" |
624 | How came I here? |
624 | How can I convince you how different our feeling for you is from what you think?" |
624 | How do you feel?" |
624 | How do you feel?" |
624 | How does he pay his way?" |
624 | How have you disposed of the problem of domestic service? |
624 | How is it that you have so much more?" |
624 | How is the amount of the credit given respectively to the workers in different lines determined? |
624 | How, in the first place, was it conceivable that she should know any secret about me, a stranger from a strange age? |
624 | How, then, are they selected from those who are to serve as farmers and mechanics? |
624 | Hung them all, perhaps, as the anarchists wanted to do in my day?" |
624 | I replied,"when? |
624 | I sat in silence until Edith began to rally me upon my sombre looks, What ailed me? |
624 | I who had lived in those cruel, insensate days, what had I done to bring them to an end? |
624 | If people eat with a spoon that leaks half its contents between bowl and lip, are they not likely to go hungry? |
624 | In the second place, even if she should know such a secret, how account for the agitating effect which the knowledge of it seemed to have upon her? |
624 | Is a man satisfied, merely because he is perfumed himself, to mingle with a malodorous crowd? |
624 | Is n''t it anything to you, that we who know you feel differently? |
624 | Is that also done by the nation?" |
624 | It seems to on this card, certainly; but who is there to listen to music between say midnight and morning?" |
624 | May I ask you when that was?" |
624 | May I not hope so?" |
624 | May I tell my great- grandmother''s picture when I go to my room that you quite forgive her for proving false to you?" |
624 | Or has human nature itself changed, so that no man looks upon his own things but''every man on the things of his neighbor''? |
624 | Really, does n''t it seem a little hard that a person in my position should not be given all the information possible concerning himself?" |
624 | Shall we take dinner at the dining- house to- day?" |
624 | That blue ribbon winding away to the sunset, was it not the sinuous Charles? |
624 | The anguish of those moments, during which my brain seemed melting, or the abjectness of my sense of helplessness, how can I describe? |
624 | The cultured society of the nineteenth century-- what did it consist of but here and there a few microscopic oases in a vast, unbroken wilderness? |
624 | The people who stood looking on with kindling faces,--could it be that the sight had for them no more than but a spectacular interest? |
624 | Then he observed,"And you tell me that even then there was no general recognition of the nature of the crisis which society was nearing? |
624 | There only remained the will, and was any human will strong enough to say to such a weltering sea,"Peace, be still"? |
624 | To make a beginning somewhere, for the subject is doubtless a large one, what solution, if any, have you found for the labor question? |
624 | To tell people what they wanted?" |
624 | Was it because men in those days were angry when girls loved them? |
624 | Was it strange that I did? |
624 | Were these human beings, who could behold the wretchedness of their fellows without so much as a change of countenance? |
624 | Were these serious men I saw about me, or children, who did their business on such a plan? |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | West?" |
624 | What administrative talent can be equal to determining wisely what trade or business every individual in a great nation shall pursue?" |
624 | What can I say to you? |
624 | What did you do with their share? |
624 | What do you care about him, to let yourself be vexed by anything he said? |
624 | What do you think? |
624 | What does he fancy would be his own experience? |
624 | What does he know of you? |
624 | What had I done to help on the deliverance whereat I now presumed to rejoice? |
624 | What has become of Sawyer?" |
624 | What has happened to me? |
624 | What has happened to you? |
624 | What have you done with the merchants and bankers? |
624 | What is the basis of allotment?" |
624 | What right had I to hail a salvation which reproached me, to rejoice in a day whose dawning I had mocked? |
624 | What should you name as the most prominent feature of the labor troubles of your day?" |
624 | What supreme authority determines what shall be done in every department, so that enough of everything is produced and yet no labor wasted? |
624 | What were these clerks thinking of? |
624 | What would become of personal liberty and dignity under such an arrangement? |
624 | What would you say if I were to introduce you to some very nice people of your own times, whom I am sure you used to be well acquainted with?" |
624 | Where had I been, and what had I seen to make such a dull fellow of me? |
624 | Where have you been? |
624 | Who appoints the editors, if not the government?" |
624 | Who are willing to be domestic servants in a community where all are social equals? |
624 | Who would ever dine, however hungry, if required to eat everything brought on the table? |
624 | Why did they think it such a shame to love any one till they had been given permission? |
624 | Why should the world have supported in utter idleness one who was able to render service? |
624 | Why this effort to induce people to buy? |
624 | Will you never tell me?" |
624 | Will you oblige me by taking a couple of swallows of this mixture? |
624 | Will you tell me how I came to be indebted to your hospitality? |
624 | With what have you stopped your ears that you do not hear these doleful sounds? |
624 | Would n''t it be interesting if I should chance to be able to tell you all about your great- grandfather, for instance?" |
624 | Would not the word, in that connection, fill you with indignation?" |
624 | You have told me in general how your industrial army is levied and organized, but who directs its efforts? |
624 | You inherited it, did you not? |
624 | You were quite done with national religious establishments in the nineteenth century, and did you fancy we had gone back to them?" |
624 | and if so, how are they ranked with those who pursue the industries proper?" |
624 | he repeated,"where is the extension?" |
624 | what must you think of me almost to throw myself in the arms of one I have known but a week? |
624 | you say,"eighteen fifty- seven? |
1971 | ''Well, well,''I shall say,''have you any kidneys?'' 1971 ''You have no mother?'' |
1971 | Afforestedtoo? |
1971 | Am I to go on or stop? |
1971 | And Panky-- what about him? |
1971 | And did not this heartless wretch, knowing how hungry you must both be, let you have a quail or two as an act of pardonable charity? |
1971 | And he must have changed his dress? |
1971 | And he never said anything about the other money he left for me-- which enabled me to marry at once? 1971 And he?" |
1971 | And how about Hanky? |
1971 | And how many skeletons do you suppose are lying at the bottom of this pool? |
1971 | And now please, how long have you been married? |
1971 | And now, my boy,he said to a very frank and ingenuous youth about half way up the class,"and how is truth best reached?" |
1971 | And our father planned all this, without saying a word to me about it while we were on our way up here? |
1971 | And that is why you tried to find me at Fairmead? |
1971 | And the people at Sunch''ston? 1971 And the third man?" |
1971 | And what are you going to do about the four black and white horses? |
1971 | And what do they say in Sunch''ston about our father''s second visit? |
1971 | And what, pray, have you done with all these things? |
1971 | And what, pray, my man,he said somewhat peremptorily to my father,"are those two plucked quails doing? |
1971 | And what,said George,"did my father, as I shall always call him, say to all this? |
1971 | And who, in the name of all that we hold most sacred, do you take him to have been-- for I see you know more than you have yet told me? |
1971 | And why not? |
1971 | And yet, is there not reason? 1971 And you are not yet quite twenty?" |
1971 | And you have duly punished her for it? |
1971 | And you said? |
1971 | Any family? |
1971 | Are we to foster the belief that it was indeed the Sunchild who interrupted Hanky''s sermon? |
1971 | Are you going to say anything to the Professors? |
1971 | At what o''clock? |
1971 | Because yesterday-- was it not?--was the first of the two days agreed upon between you and our father? |
1971 | Bless my heart-- what? 1971 But did he,"I asked,"try to prick the bubble of Sunchildism?" |
1971 | But he saw that even though Higgs were to shew himself and say who he was, it would mean death to himself and no good to any one else? |
1971 | But surely you believe me? |
1971 | But this,said Yram,"being gold, is a large sum: can you indeed spare it, and do you really wish George to have it all?" |
1971 | But were there,I said,"any storks?" |
1971 | But where and how? |
1971 | But you did not know this when I was walking with you on Friday? |
1971 | But you knew who I was when you called me Panky in the temple? |
1971 | But, Mayoress,said Panky, who had not opened his lips so far,"are you sure that you are not too hasty in believing this stranger to be the Sunchild? |
1971 | Can you ask Mrs. Humdrum to bring her grand- daughter with her to- morrow evening? |
1971 | Can you not trust me to take everything as said? |
1971 | Did the King,I asked,"increase your salary?" |
1971 | Did you examine the man''s boots? |
1971 | Did you go to Erewhon, and were you ill- treated there? |
1971 | Did you really see him ascend? |
1971 | Do I understand, then,said Yram, as I suppose we may as well call her,"that you were out all last night? |
1971 | Do you know how he had been spending the last two days or so before he got down to your hut? |
1971 | Do you mean to say that my father left me this by his will? |
1971 | Do you think we shall ever get rid of Sunchildism altogether? |
1971 | Have you met any suspicious characters between here and the statues? |
1971 | How can I look him in the face? |
1971 | How did you know,said she,"that he was Professor Panky? |
1971 | How do you do, Professor Panky? |
1971 | How long did he stay with you? |
1971 | How long,he said to himself,"will it be before they are at one another''s throats?" |
1971 | I intend to report every word of it; but that is not the point: the question is what you gentlemen will swear to? |
1971 | I know the tree; have you got the nuggets here? |
1971 | I know you would; but you remember Mrs. Humdrum? 1971 I suppose he had a dark complexion and black hair like the rest of us?" |
1971 | I suppose the blanket and the rest of the kit are still in the tree? |
1971 | I understand, then,said George, appearing to take no notice of Hanky''s innuendo,"that you will swear to the facts as you have above stated them?" |
1971 | I will be obedience itself-- but you will not ask me to do anything that will make your mother or you think less well of me? |
1971 | If Satan himself is at times transformed into an angel of light, are not angels of light sometimes transformed into the likeness of Satan? 1971 In what part of the preserves?" |
1971 | Is my father with you? |
1971 | It is a pity you should do that,said Hanky musingly:"the things are interesting as curiosities, and-- and-- and-- what will you take for them?" |
1971 | My dear Mayoress, how can you ask such a question? 1971 No one in the house knows of your having run this errand for me?" |
1971 | Now tell me,said George, glad to change the subject,"what will those three men do about what you said to them last night? |
1971 | Now, my boys,he said,"Why is it so necessary to avoid extremes of truthfulness?" |
1971 | Of course he was swarthy like the rest of us? |
1971 | On the other hand, what business have I with''would be''or''would not be?'' 1971 Or when we are waking, how powerfully does not the life we are living in others pain or delight us, according as others think ill or well of us? |
1971 | Shall I have to see him? |
1971 | Shall I say more now,she said, seeing how grave he looked,"or shall I leave you, and talk further with you to- morrow?" |
1971 | Talking of the Sunchild,said Panky;"did you ever see him?" |
1971 | Tell the King? |
1971 | That you are to be canonised at the close of the year along with Professors Hanky and Panky? |
1971 | The light hurts you? |
1971 | Then the poacher is still at large? |
1971 | Then you have come all this way for me, when you were wanting to get married? |
1971 | Then you would have us uphold Sunchildism, knowing it to be untrue? |
1971 | Then, sir, had I not better leave you? |
1971 | There is nothing in it; but what were your measurements? |
1971 | This,he said,"is a solemn covenant, is it not?" |
1971 | Was his manner friendly? |
1971 | What are you doing here among the common people? 1971 What could we do? |
1971 | What did he say to this? |
1971 | What do you think, Panky,he added, turning to his brother Professor,"had we not better stay here till sunrise? |
1971 | What gift can be more invaluable? |
1971 | What have I done to deserve so much goodwill? 1971 What if they are? |
1971 | What is the matter? |
1971 | What monstrous absurdity is this? |
1971 | What were his words? |
1971 | What, my dearest mother, does all this mean? 1971 What,"he said to me, very coherently and quietly,"was I to do? |
1971 | When did you tell the King? |
1971 | When shall you see him? |
1971 | Where did you meet him? |
1971 | Who ever heard the Sunchild claim relationship with the air- god? 1971 Who, sir, will believe anything else? |
1971 | Why, can you not see? |
1971 | Will you hold up yours, Professor Hanky,said George,"if I release you?" |
1971 | Would that be a bargain? |
1971 | Yes( with a blush),"and are you?" |
1971 | Yes, but where in the world were you? |
1971 | Yes,was the answer,"but a man can dye his hair, can he not? |
1971 | Yesterday? 1971 You are sure they had been killing quails?" |
1971 | You hear that, Hanky? 1971 You know me?" |
1971 | You say your wife is dead, and that she left you with a son-- is he like George? |
1971 | ''Can this man,''he asked,''be said to have been truly born till many a long year after he had been reputed as truly dead? |
1971 | *****"Now what,"said Panky as they went upstairs,"does that woman mean-- for she means something? |
1971 | 3, and the hour noon as near as may be?" |
1971 | After a time he said,"And what do you good people hereabouts think of next Sunday''s grand doings?" |
1971 | After some little silence my father said,"And may I ask what name your mother gave you?" |
1971 | After such a day, and such an evening, how could any one have slept? |
1971 | Almost immediately, Dr. Downie said,"And now, Mr, Higgs, tell us, as a man of the world, what we are to do about Sunchildism?" |
1971 | Am I on my head or my heels?" |
1971 | Am I, or am I not, to have the sworn depositions of both you gentlemen to the fact that the prisoner is the man you saw with quails in his possession? |
1971 | And how about the quails he had so innocently killed? |
1971 | And how many more had he not in like manner brought to the verge of idiocy? |
1971 | And how was he to get enough Erewhonian money to keep him going till he could find some safe means of selling a few of his nuggets? |
1971 | And how, my dearest boy, as I look upon you, can I feign repentance? |
1971 | And now, may I tell my mother that you will put yourself in her, and the Mayor''s, and my, hands, and will do whatever we tell you?" |
1971 | And should he have to be thrown into the Blue Pool by George after all? |
1971 | And that son? |
1971 | And the young? |
1971 | And what bird did those bones belong to which I see lying by the fire with the flesh all eaten off them? |
1971 | And why had Coldharbour become Sunchildston? |
1971 | Are the under- rangers allowed not only to wear the forbidden dress but to eat the King''s quails as well?" |
1971 | As for current gossip, people would talk, and if the lad was well begotten, what could it matter to them whose son he was? |
1971 | As soon as it was over George said:-"Are you quite sure you have made no mistake about the way in which you got the permit out of the Professors?" |
1971 | As soon as my father could speak he said,"But how did your mother find out that I was in Erewhon?" |
1971 | As the singers kept on repeating the question, I kept on saying sorrowfully to myself--''Ah, where, where, where?'' |
1971 | At any rate you will have sausages?'' |
1971 | But I hope you had enough provisions with you?" |
1971 | But I suppose the snow is all gone by this time?" |
1971 | But on Friday evening? |
1971 | But what about the Mayor?" |
1971 | But who can say? |
1971 | But why would not my mother let your father tell me? |
1971 | But would you not like to send some present to the Mayor, Yram, their other children, and Mrs. Humdrum''s grand- daughter?" |
1971 | By the way, you have received no illumination this morning, have you?" |
1971 | CHAPTER IX: INTERVIEW BETWEEN YRAM AND HER SON"What did you think of Panky?" |
1971 | Can any one believe that he would go on rolling that stone year after year and seeing it roll down again unless he liked seeing it? |
1971 | Can there be a doubt that the vicarious life is the more efficient? |
1971 | Can you do this? |
1971 | Can you interpret?" |
1971 | Did he say anything about Higgs?" |
1971 | Did he say in what part of the preserves he had been?" |
1971 | Did he talk to you about me?" |
1971 | Did he tell you so?" |
1971 | Do they believe as you and I do, or did they merely go with the times? |
1971 | Do we mind this? |
1971 | Do you mean to Blue- Pool the Professors or no?" |
1971 | Do you remember the drink you taught us to make of corn parched and ground? |
1971 | Do you see him? |
1971 | Do you see the head- boy-- the third of those that are coming up the path? |
1971 | Do you think they would have stood his being jobbed into the rangership by any one else but Yram?" |
1971 | Does the child never break anything by accident?" |
1971 | For had it not been irresistible, was it to be believed that astute men like Hanky and Panky would have let themselves be drawn into it? |
1971 | For to live is to be influenced, as well as to influence; and when a man is dead how can he be influenced? |
1971 | George laughed, and said,"On purpose to hide?" |
1971 | Had their views about machinery also changed? |
1971 | Had this been the meaning of his having followed him to Fairmead? |
1971 | Has it got well about among them, in spite of your admirable article, that it was the Sunchild himself who interrupted Hanky?" |
1971 | Has yours been different?" |
1971 | Have I said enough, or shall I say more?" |
1971 | Have you any decided opinions upon the subject?" |
1971 | Have you any red mullets?'' |
1971 | He then added, appealing to Panky, who was on the Mayoress''s left hand,"but we had rather a strange adventure on our way down, had we not, Panky? |
1971 | He then turned to his class and said--"And now tell me what did the Sunchild tell us about God and Mammon?" |
1971 | How can I thank you?" |
1971 | How can she detect lying in other people unless she has had some experience of it in her own practice? |
1971 | How could it be that when the means of resistance were so ample and so easy, the movement should nevertheless have been irresistible? |
1971 | How could she doubt? |
1971 | How could your mother have found out by that time that I was in Erewhon? |
1971 | How did he know but that Hanky and Panky might have driven over from Sunch''ston to see Mr. Turvey, and might put up at this very house? |
1971 | How do you know that the foot- tracks were made by the prisoner?" |
1971 | How many such stories, sometimes very plausibly told, have we not had during the last twenty years? |
1971 | How, again, had they converted the King-- if they had converted him? |
1971 | How, he wondered, were they getting on, and what had they done with the things they had bought from him? |
1971 | Humdrum?" |
1971 | Humdrum?" |
1971 | I have done you nothing but harm?" |
1971 | I must not stay another moment; but tell me this much, have you seen any signs of poachers lately?" |
1971 | I remember having heard an anthem in my young days,''O where shall wisdom be found? |
1971 | I wonder which of them it was? |
1971 | If the devil is not so black as he is painted, is God always so white? |
1971 | If they had been wrong in thinking such a thing impossible, in how much else might they not be mistaken also? |
1971 | In what part of the preserves did you fall in with him?" |
1971 | Is it because you think I am like your son, or is there some other reason?" |
1971 | It a man and a woman might rise from the earth and disappear into the sky, what else might not happen? |
1971 | Let us now talk about this morning-- did you mean to declare yourself?" |
1971 | Look at this thigh- bone; was there ever a quail with such a bone as that?" |
1971 | Luncheon being over I said--"And are you married?" |
1971 | May I ask which of you two gentlemen is Professor Hanky, and which Professor Panky?" |
1971 | Might they not be as mistaken, as they had just proved to be about the tracks? |
1971 | Miss La Frime to Mrs. Humdrum:"You know how he got his professorship? |
1971 | No? |
1971 | Now what does the man"( who on enquiry my father found to be none other than Mr. Turvey himself)"say about honesty?" |
1971 | Now, how, I wonder, did he find that out?" |
1971 | Now, tell me what I asked you-- Why are you here?" |
1971 | On what dust- heap had it not been thrown how many long years ago? |
1971 | On which side of Panky did Hanky sit, and did they sit north and south or east and west? |
1971 | Or was there an exception made about any machine that he had himself carried? |
1971 | Panky assented, but then, turning sharply to my father, he said,"My man, what are you doing in the forbidden dress? |
1971 | Panky did not hold up his, whereon Hanky said,"Hold up your hands, Panky, ca n''t you? |
1971 | Presently Hanky said to my father quite civilly,"And what, my good man, do you propose to do with all these things? |
1971 | Presently Yram turned to Hanky and said--"By the way, Professor, you must have found it very cold up at the statues, did you not? |
1971 | Presently he smiled, and said,"Of course I do, but it is you who should forgive me, for was it not all my fault?" |
1971 | She laughed genially as she added,"Can you throw any light upon the question whether I am likely to get my three dozen? |
1971 | Should I not speak out, come what may, when I see a whole people being led astray by those who are merely exploiting them for their own ends? |
1971 | Should the body prove, as no doubt it would, to be that of the Sunchild, what is to become of Sunchildism?" |
1971 | Should we not first settle, not what, but who, we shall allow the prisoner to be, when he is brought up to- morrow morning? |
1971 | Something, therefore, he would say, but what? |
1971 | The felt or the unfelt? |
1971 | Then I may say to my mother that you will be good and give no trouble-- not even though we bid you shake hands with Hanky and Panky?" |
1971 | Then how about the watch? |
1971 | Then she had never forgotten him? |
1971 | Then the Mayor doubtless had light hair too; but why did not those wretches say in which month Yram was married? |
1971 | Then to my father,"How many brace have you got?" |
1971 | Then turning to his grandfather, he said,"You have the record of Mr. Higgs''s marks and measurements? |
1971 | Then, turning to my father, he said,"You can see this, my man, can you not, as soon as it is pointed out to you?" |
1971 | Then, turning to the Ranger, he said,"I gather, then, that your mother does not think so badly of the Sunchild after all?" |
1971 | Though I could do but little, ought I not to do that little? |
1971 | To- day is Thursday-- it is the twenty- ninth, is it not? |
1971 | To- morrow we can rest; what, I wonder, can we do on Saturday? |
1971 | Was he being lured on to his destruction by some malicious fiend, or befriended by one who had compassion on him and wished him well? |
1971 | Was there anything strange about his way of talking?" |
1971 | Was there ever any lunatic, and was he found?" |
1971 | Were you to deliver them plucked? |
1971 | What can I say to thank you?" |
1971 | What completer proof can we have that livingness consists in deed rather than in consciousness of deed? |
1971 | What could an eagle matter on the liver of a man whose body covered nine acres? |
1971 | What could it all mean? |
1971 | What could it matter to them whether the sieves got full or no? |
1971 | What could she think? |
1971 | What day of the week do you make it?" |
1971 | What did my own instinct answer? |
1971 | What did that good fellow''s instinct-- so straight from heaven, so true, so healthy-- tell him? |
1971 | What evidence can you have of this but the word of a foreign devil in such straits that he would swear to anything?" |
1971 | What is coming?" |
1971 | What man of ordinary feeling would not under these circumstances have tried to dissuade them from deposing as they have done?" |
1971 | What o''clock do you make it?" |
1971 | What other children has she besides yourself?" |
1971 | What other like fatal error might he not ignorantly commit? |
1971 | What then had been its inner history? |
1971 | What though Tantalus found the water shun him and the fruits fly from him when he tried to seize them? |
1971 | What was he to say when people asked him, as they were sure to do, how he was living? |
1971 | What were the Danaids doing but that which each one of us has to do during his or her whole life? |
1971 | What will you swear to?" |
1971 | What would have happened if he had tried to sell them in Coldharbour? |
1971 | What would the conscience of any honourable man answer? |
1971 | When the servants had left the room, Yram said to Hanky,"You saw the prisoner, and he was the man you met on Thursday night?" |
1971 | When you were born he took to you at once, as, indeed, who could help doing? |
1971 | Where do you think I may be mistaken?" |
1971 | Where is the Act?" |
1971 | Where is your dear mother? |
1971 | Which is his truest life-- the one he is leading in them, or that equally unconscious life residing in his own sleeping body? |
1971 | Which will carry the day?" |
1971 | Which, then, of this man''s two lives should we deem best worth having, if we could choose one or other, but not both? |
1971 | Who can doubt? |
1971 | Who could tell but that he might see Panky too? |
1971 | Who did he say he was?" |
1971 | Who has ever partaken of this life you speak of, and re- entered into the womb to tell us of it? |
1971 | Why are you not in ranger''s uniform, and what is the meaning of all those quails?" |
1971 | Why bring a smaller charge when you must inflict the death penalty on a more serious one? |
1971 | Why did you not send me word when you found what had happened? |
1971 | Why do you wish us all well so very heartily? |
1971 | Why have you come here?" |
1971 | Why have you not taken your place in one of the seats reserved for our distinguished visitors? |
1971 | Why not have left us to find it out or to know nothing about it? |
1971 | Why should I? |
1971 | Why was this?" |
1971 | Why, I wonder, could not the Queen have put the clothes on a dummy that would show back from front? |
1971 | Will they pay any attention to it?" |
1971 | You do not know who they were? |
1971 | You here, again, Mr. Higgs? |
1971 | You know, perhaps, that Professor Hanky, whose name I see on your permit, tried to burn her alive?" |
1971 | You like her as a wife for George?" |
1971 | and is it not God- given as much as instinct? |
1971 | but why?" |
1971 | he asked;"and what, pray, do you think it all was?" |
1971 | he had said with a laugh,"what does it matter?" |
1971 | look at his blue eyes and his eyelashes?" |
1971 | or come after me? |
1971 | said I,"what have you been telling the King?" |
1971 | shouted Hanky;"do you mean to murder us?" |
1971 | what temple?" |
1971 | what was that? |
44307 | Again those words''Central Sea;''what does it mean? 44307 Ah, Hugh; why say the United States? |
44307 | And I am to go with him, you understand? |
44307 | And I have lain here since June 22d? |
44307 | And Rawolle; where is he? |
44307 | And are you the great- grandson of Hugh Craft, my dear old friend of 1887? |
44307 | And can you not have that? |
44307 | And day after to- morrow, at 12 dial, we sail for the north pole? |
44307 | And do you call that a painless death, being crushed upon the earth below into a shapeless mass? |
44307 | And do you mean to tell me that Chicago is a greater city than New York? 44307 And federal appointments, the patronage of the party, as it was formerly called-- how are they made?" |
44307 | And go wherever I wish? |
44307 | And has no effort been made to rediscover this secret? |
44307 | And have no accidents ever happened to these stations from ice- floes, collisions, or faulty construction? |
44307 | And how about the rates of postage? |
44307 | And how do you feel? 44307 And how have you accomplished this great change?" |
44307 | And how long does it take to gain this full momentum? |
44307 | And how long has this been the custom? |
44307 | And is all of this of malleable glass? |
44307 | And is not the country somewhat crowded by this great mass of people? |
44307 | And our elevation now is 10,000 feet, you say? |
44307 | And steam is n''t used any more? |
44307 | And that pole is where? |
44307 | And the government pays these men? |
44307 | And the officers-- how are they appointed? |
44307 | And the term of office? |
44307 | And their duties, what are they? |
44307 | And to- night is your last with us? 44307 And was I also asleep as long?" |
44307 | And was the principle never divulged by the inventor? |
44307 | And we are going north, to the extremity of the earth? |
44307 | And what are our chances for promotion? 44307 And what does my hubby get?" |
44307 | And what is considered good speed for the electric roads? |
44307 | And what will Hugh say when he returns and finds me gone? |
44307 | And where may that south point be? |
44307 | And who is President now? |
44307 | And why dare we not, Miss Timidity? |
44307 | And why may we not? |
44307 | And you have investigated? |
44307 | And you knew that a letter would be found in that cairn? |
44307 | And you mean to tell me that this paper is the newspaper of the whole country? 44307 And you personally knew the man who left that letter here in this desolate waste?" |
44307 | And you reproach me not that I see in you my former love? |
44307 | And you say the quantity that I asked for is nearly ready? |
44307 | And you want her, Hugh? |
44307 | And you will obey this order? |
44307 | And you will send for her to- morrow? |
44307 | And you, too, Hathaway? |
44307 | And yours the same? |
44307 | Any news at the club? |
44307 | Are the rates of passage high? |
44307 | Are there any changes in the method of electing Senators, Representatives, and chief magistrate? |
44307 | Are there any laws relating to the holding of real estate? |
44307 | Are they expensive? 44307 Are you displeased at meeting me?" |
44307 | Are you engaged? |
44307 | Are you not too cold, Junius? |
44307 | Are you sure? |
44307 | Bad, eh? |
44307 | But I had forgotten; is she engaged, or in love? |
44307 | But can we not help you? |
44307 | But can you not carry material to keep your supply of hydrogen up to the amount required? |
44307 | But could n''t she come as somebody else? 44307 But dare I?" |
44307 | But did not those who were not injured by the shocks and falling buildings have time to move their effects before the waters overtook them? 44307 But does not this convict labor compete with the labor of the masses?" |
44307 | But does this not work more harshly against those of otherwise good reputation than against the habitual criminal? |
44307 | But has it always worked well? |
44307 | But how are the artillery regiments kept full? |
44307 | But how are these men found? 44307 But if I were to show you that it was a fact, an accomplished fact, you would, of course, admit it?" |
44307 | But is it not a little confusing to you, this change from the old to the new style? |
44307 | But may not the choice of the people be defeated, where the election is in the hands of so few? |
44307 | But suppose one is dissatisfied with his trial; what then? |
44307 | But tell me, Rawolle, why do you speak of 16 dial and 13 dial? 44307 But the heading reads:''America, September 19, 2000?''" |
44307 | But were you? |
44307 | But will you not be adding too much weight for buoyancy? |
44307 | But, Junius, does Marie know this? 44307 But,"asked Cobb,"does not this oil congeal upon the rail in cold weather?" |
44307 | But,musingly inquired Cobb,"is not there a difference in operating the roads? |
44307 | By whom was this wonderful instrument invented? 44307 Can I help it? |
44307 | Can man forswear his soul? |
44307 | Can you explain why it is that the pole has never been reached by land parties? |
44307 | Chief of Ordnance? |
44307 | Colchis, how can I ever repay you for the time you have given to the manufacture of these crystals? |
44307 | Craft, did you say? |
44307 | Did she leave any word for you? |
44307 | Did you hear it, Marie? |
44307 | Did_ you_ know Jean Colchis? |
44307 | Do I remind you of some old friend, some old love? |
44307 | Do I? 44307 Do n''t you know in which direction south is?" |
44307 | Do n''t you see how anxious I am? |
44307 | Do you comprehend the advance in science that has been made in a hundred years? |
44307 | Do you have any accidents on the roads? 44307 Do you intend to make direct for the pole from Cape Farewell?" |
44307 | Do you wish to earn twenty dollars? |
44307 | Do you wish to go? |
44307 | Do you, indeed, make this request? |
44307 | Does it differ much from the Morse system? |
44307 | Does not this system give opportunities for bribery and jobbery? |
44307 | Does this law not tend to deprive the State and nation of the services of tried and capable men? |
44307 | Easy enough to say,''Take your bearings,''he returned,"but how? |
44307 | Father, dear; I wish to visit aunt Lora in San Francisco; can I go? |
44307 | Father, have I been a good, true daughter to you? |
44307 | Given us the slip, eh? |
44307 | Glass? |
44307 | God is all powerful; but by man? |
44307 | Have I slept a hundred and thirteen years? 44307 Have you any nitric acid?" |
44307 | Have you been over the ship? |
44307 | How about pardons from these prisons? |
44307 | How can it? 44307 How do you make that out, Junius?" |
44307 | How far apart are these stations? |
44307 | How have you done this, pray? |
44307 | How is that? 44307 How is that?" |
44307 | How is the course? 44307 How long has this sleep continued?" |
44307 | How long has this system been in operation? |
44307 | How long have these works been in operation? |
44307 | How many pairs of these sagacious little instruments have you in the system? |
44307 | How much have I had already? |
44307 | How much will the hydrogen which is used to inflate that bag weigh? |
44307 | How so, Mollie? |
44307 | How so? 44307 How?" |
44307 | Hugh,said Cobb, rising from his chair,"will you take the latitude from Polaris? |
44307 | I presume,said Cobb,"that there can be but few changes in the general management, supervision, etc., of the roads from those in vogue in my time?" |
44307 | I should imagine that the system is very expensive-- the salary of so many judges? |
44307 | I think I was informed by Mr. Rawolle that the government owns all of the railroads in the country? |
44307 | I was engaged the past two nights, and it was impossible for me to get here; but how progresses the work? 44307 I, Lester? |
44307 | IS IT A HOAX? 44307 Is it a private concern?" |
44307 | Is it to be so? |
44307 | Is n''t he a young man to have lived so long? |
44307 | Is the nation in debt? |
44307 | Is the plaster ready to set? |
44307 | Is this now the prevailing style? |
44307 | It is funny, is it not, to hear me talking of having been the friend and chum of this man''s great- great- grandfather? |
44307 | It must take powerful engines to exhaust the air from such a long tunnel, does it not? |
44307 | Listen,he exclaimed, as their glasses were laid upon the table;"are you ready to give me your strictest attention?" |
44307 | Master, this is the 25th of August, is it not? |
44307 | Mr. Rawolle, I am prepared for many new and, to me, quite startling statements, but this of yours is a little too strong, is it not? 44307 No doubt you would like to hear of the prison system as it exists to- day; for it is directly connected, of course, with the law?" |
44307 | No letter in which you are recognized? |
44307 | Perhaps not,smiling;"but I may have known his great- grandfather; in fact, I may possibly have been an intimate friend of his-- who knows?" |
44307 | Perhaps? |
44307 | Playing billiards in the other room-- at least he was there a minute ago; but do you want us to- night? |
44307 | Simple, is n''t it? |
44307 | So long? |
44307 | Such an immense basin must have required a considerable time to fill up? |
44307 | Surely, he taught you how to make the instruments? |
44307 | Tell me one other thing,said Cobb;"has the pneumatic railroad superseded all other kinds?" |
44307 | That would be terrible intriguing, would n''t it? |
44307 | The metropolis? |
44307 | The sympathetic system, did you say? |
44307 | Then, I take it that a Republican house would surely elect a Republican, and vice versa? |
44307 | Then, I understand that, if you could manufacture this gas in sufficient quantities on the ship, and by light apparatus, you could go anywhere? |
44307 | Then, how can you account for the power of attraction which draws you to me? |
44307 | Then, judging from your remarks, there is practically no limit to the speed which can be obtained by this method of propulsion? |
44307 | Then, life without your lover is worse than death? |
44307 | Then, that light away down near the horizon is nearly 150 miles from us? |
44307 | Then, the towns, excepting the great centers, are connected by electric railroads for inter- transportation? |
44307 | There are none but sailing vessels in the harbor; will madame have use for one of them? |
44307 | They must be very rich and powerful corporations, these which own such lines as this? |
44307 | This is, no doubt, an electric carriage? |
44307 | Truly, Mollie? |
44307 | Twice? |
44307 | Well, Mr. Lane, what is it? 44307 Well, did I say anything about going to New York?" |
44307 | Well, have n''t I tried to make him love me? 44307 Well, why do n''t you make them?" |
44307 | Were you ever in love, Mollie? |
44307 | What are considered among the gravest crimes? |
44307 | What did you pay for the telegraph system? 44307 What does it mean?" |
44307 | What have n''t you done? |
44307 | What is it now, pet? |
44307 | What is it? |
44307 | What is the next act in this drama? |
44307 | What is the rate of taxation-- national and municipal? |
44307 | What is the strength of the army required to protect the country from internal violence, and for a cadre of a full army? |
44307 | What is the volume of gas as compared with the solid base? 44307 What is this? |
44307 | What is your pay? |
44307 | What more can man desire than a name great to the world; a name honored, respected and loved? |
44307 | What next? |
44307 | What will Lester say when he does not find me in the conservatory to- night? |
44307 | What will you do? 44307 What''s the matter with you? |
44307 | What, doctor? |
44307 | What? |
44307 | When did you say these were invented? |
44307 | When do you desire to start, Miss Craft? |
44307 | Where is the electricity for these powerful engines generated? |
44307 | Where is the evidence of his skill, of his ingenuity? 44307 Where?" |
44307 | Who knocks? |
44307 | Who will not? |
44307 | Whose order? |
44307 | Why did I not think of that? |
44307 | Why did you bring so much meteorite and acid? |
44307 | Why must you seek me thus stealthily, Lester, you ask? 44307 Why, you have told me that New York has over four million inhabitants; has Chicago more than that number?" |
44307 | Will I see you here to- morrow evening? |
44307 | Will he know me? 44307 Will you get the nomination again, do you think?" |
44307 | Will you not smoke, also? |
44307 | Will you show me one of these milag cartridges? |
44307 | Will you take a look at the work of the day? |
44307 | Will you tell me what kind of arms are now used? |
44307 | Will you work all night for that amount? |
44307 | Will you? |
44307 | Would you do more if you could? |
44307 | Yes, I know; but are you going to work so soon? 44307 Yes,"said Cobb;"but would you rather play cinch to remaining here and listening to what I have to say?" |
44307 | Yes,said Hathaway;"but why have you gone to all this trouble with that compass, when you could have put in good- sized springs, as well?" |
44307 | Yes; and you? |
44307 | Yes; but why does it seem to interest you so much? 44307 Yes; have you seen this explosive? |
44307 | Yes; what was it? |
44307 | Yes? |
44307 | Yes? |
44307 | Yes? |
44307 | You are under orders to join your regiment, are you not? |
44307 | You certainly will not ask me to make an attempt which others have declared impossible? |
44307 | You have n''t changed the seasons, have you? |
44307 | You met Mr. Cobb at breakfast, did you not, Irwin? |
44307 | You want her, Lester? |
44307 | You will marry none other than me? 44307 You will pardon my doubts, will you not, Miss Craft?" |
44307 | ''Why not send that daughter to him?'' |
44307 | 2000?" |
44307 | 2000?" |
44307 | 2000?" |
44307 | A few years, and you will come and claim me, will you not, Junius?" |
44307 | A strange statement, is it not? |
44307 | Am I now alive? |
44307 | Am I tedious?" |
44307 | Amid the sobs which came from her heart, she asked:"And will I always be Marie Colchis to you, Junius? |
44307 | And Marie-- what were her thoughts and feelings? |
44307 | And his kindred, where were they? |
44307 | And how had their love ripened, these two of years so wide apart? |
44307 | And if this arctic current could be checked, or driven off, then what?" |
44307 | And she? |
44307 | And the other-- Junius Cobb? |
44307 | And then, was she not now informed of his mission? |
44307 | And why this haste, my daughter?" |
44307 | Are not some more expensive to the government than others?" |
44307 | Are there not other newspapers besides this?" |
44307 | Are we in 1800 or 1900?" |
44307 | Are we really to believe that you have in that case an animal undergoing the treatment you have spoken of?" |
44307 | Are you aware that you are now traveling at the rate of two hundred and forty miles per hour, or four miles per minute?" |
44307 | Are you tired?" |
44307 | As Hugh spoke, he gave the other a severe look, as if to say,"How do you like it?" |
44307 | Both were now prepared for anything which Cobb might advance, for it seemed to each of them that it was no longer a question of"Is it true?" |
44307 | But Cobb had no ill- feeling against the man; he had died long years ago; and what did this theft avail him at that moment? |
44307 | But do you know in which direction the meridian of ten degrees runs, for that is the meridian which passes through Behring Strait?" |
44307 | But does not this extra day interfere in many ways with the dates of bills, notes, and other legal documents?" |
44307 | But have you read this?" |
44307 | But he had taken a dislike to Junius Cobb-- and why? |
44307 | But one other thing troubled him very much, and that was why did the compass- needle mark 899 instead of 260, as it ought to do? |
44307 | But the other-- Junius-- how ran his thoughts? |
44307 | But what battle is this in which he died?" |
44307 | By what misfortune am I thus disturbed and my plans upset? |
44307 | By whose authority do you come? |
44307 | Can you do this?" |
44307 | Can you explain it?" |
44307 | Can you love me in return, for her sake?" |
44307 | Can you make anything out of it?" |
44307 | Chicago, an inland town, to compete with and excel New York, a sea- port city?" |
44307 | Cobb will excuse us for a few minutes, will you not?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Cobb?" |
44307 | Could anyone have dreamed of such a power as this?" |
44307 | Deliberately came the words:"Have you anything to prove your relationship to the President?" |
44307 | Did he ever think of little Marie Colchis? |
44307 | Did n''t I ask you to come here and win the love of Junius Cobb so as to free me from the pain of seeing his love for me unreturned? |
44307 | Did n''t you agree to throw yourself away for Lester''s sake and mine? |
44307 | Did the experiment come up to the ideal? |
44307 | Do they voluntarily enlist?" |
44307 | Do we know it to be worse than the present? |
44307 | Do we know what the future is? |
44307 | Do you believe in the immortality of the soul?" |
44307 | Do you comprehend the drift of my remarks?" |
44307 | Do you comprehend?" |
44307 | Do you hear it? |
44307 | Do you indeed know me?" |
44307 | Do you love Junius Cobb as fondly now as when you were a girl, on the night when he said good- bye and left you? |
44307 | Do you mean that these lights are on stationary vessels in the ocean?" |
44307 | Do you not have them now?" |
44307 | Do you not think it would be cozy and happy?" |
44307 | Do you understand it all now?" |
44307 | Does she know you are going away forever?" |
44307 | Even if collusion brought about a certain nomination, who could tell that that nominee would be elected by the two houses? |
44307 | Feeling this to be the case, he framed his next words accordingly:"Tell me what you mean? |
44307 | Had they all deserted him, that he was thus left alone? |
44307 | Handing one to Craft, he said:"Do you notice anything peculiar about that cartridge?" |
44307 | Has Lester Hathaway any connection with this undertaking?" |
44307 | Has everything been a dream? |
44307 | Hathaway; on time, I see; but where is Craft?" |
44307 | Hathaway?" |
44307 | Have I been asleep since 1887?" |
44307 | Have I been sick? |
44307 | Have I your word?" |
44307 | Have you any more business?" |
44307 | Have you completed everything that is necessary to be done? |
44307 | Have you had a good rest?" |
44307 | Have you no door, or mode of entrance?" |
44307 | He admired Mollie Craft; did he love her? |
44307 | He beamed with the thought, for might he not hear from Marie? |
44307 | He did want it; but for whom? |
44307 | He was living, but where were they? |
44307 | Hear you the word? |
44307 | Holding aloft the empty bullet, he exultingly cried:"Was I not right when I claimed a knowledge of this explosive?" |
44307 | How came you here?" |
44307 | How can you ever say such a thing?" |
44307 | How could it be possible to lose the secret of such a discovery as this?" |
44307 | How is this to be accomplished? |
44307 | How would he be received when he reached there? |
44307 | How, then, does the current pass?" |
44307 | Hugh Craft bowed, and moved behind his sister''s chair, and whispered:"Is he dangerous?" |
44307 | I gave you the weights a few minutes ago; what did I make them?" |
44307 | I have had relatives in the army for many years; I wonder if this man could have been one of my ancestors?" |
44307 | I have seen your aërial ships, large and stanch; why ca n''t you go in one of them?" |
44307 | I have some work to attend to, and I know Junius will excuse me-- will you not?" |
44307 | I hope you do n''t think a man can sleep three months without being satisfied, do you?" |
44307 | I hope you slept well, and are ready for the trip to Pittsburgh?" |
44307 | IS IT TRUE? |
44307 | If I fail, what is the consequence? |
44307 | Is it indeed that year? |
44307 | Is it to be life or death?" |
44307 | Is that perfectly understood?" |
44307 | Is the captain on board?" |
44307 | Is there a secret about it? |
44307 | Is there an inland sea?" |
44307 | Is there anything strange in the name, that you should look at me so doubtingly?" |
44307 | Is this the principle you have been speaking of? |
44307 | It is a remarkable one, is it not?" |
44307 | It is now the 20th of June, A. D. 2000; quite a long time after that set by Mr. Cobb for giving him assistance is it not? |
44307 | It is simple and sure; why, then, should I seek for anything different?" |
44307 | Look here, old fellow,"pettishly exclaimed Hathaway, rising from his chair,"what is all this about, anyway?" |
44307 | Looks funny, does n''t it?" |
44307 | Lost in the ecstasy of the moment, he was rudely awakened to a sense of the reality by the President remarking:"It is a grand sight, is it not?" |
44307 | May not the vision have been given for such an interpretation? |
44307 | Mr. Lyman, will you come along, too?" |
44307 | Not himself? |
44307 | Now, have I not? |
44307 | Now, what would be our velocity falling from this point upon reaching the surface of the earth below?" |
44307 | Of course, I know you refer to the time; but what has been the change in the calendar that you should employ such terms?" |
44307 | On this earth, a human being dies every second; does it interfere with the steady and slow movement of the machinery of life? |
44307 | Once more the eyes opened, and she spoke, but in a stronger voice:"Who are you? |
44307 | Pausing to light a cigar, he then resumed:"How do you feel-- sick or languid?" |
44307 | President?" |
44307 | Scared at a skeleton, eh? |
44307 | She wished to test the man she loved; and why? |
44307 | Tell me, what is the year? |
44307 | Thanking Secretary Fowler for his kindness, Cobb turned to the President and asked:"Is it time to take our departure?" |
44307 | Then aloud:"Is this Miles, who is signed here as Secretary of State, any relation to Brigadier- General Miles, of 1887?" |
44307 | Then starting up with fire in her eye, she cried:"Why not make the attempt ourselves?" |
44307 | Then, after a pause:"Why not open it, Mollie? |
44307 | Then, inquiringly:"Will you show me your finest aërial ship to- morrow?" |
44307 | Then, why care if we die to- day or to- morrow? |
44307 | Turning to Mr. Irwin, he asked:"But where is your steersman-- your lookout, I mean? |
44307 | Turning to his friends, he exclaimed:"Am I not a coward, thus to seek energy and strength in that bottle of liquor? |
44307 | Was he crazy? |
44307 | Was he satisfied to die and live again? |
44307 | Was he to be satisfied with things as he should find them now? |
44307 | Was he to find such changes in the world as he had anticipated? |
44307 | Was he, indeed, crazy? |
44307 | Was he, too, imposing upon the girl''s innocence? |
44307 | Was it a play- thing that he had discovered? |
44307 | Was it known where he was? |
44307 | Was it possible that he was not dreaming? |
44307 | Was the light worth the candle? |
44307 | Was there any harm? |
44307 | Was this the Montgomery street he had so often walked upon? |
44307 | We are all poor, impecunious gentlemen, are we not?" |
44307 | We are now 10,000 feet above the ocean, are we not?" |
44307 | Weak as he was, Cobb sprang toward the opening through which Rawolle was speaking, and excitedly cried:"Is it not 1887? |
44307 | Were I to stop now, what would you think of me? |
44307 | Were you ever in love?" |
44307 | What did he mean by those words? |
44307 | What do you think of my scheme?" |
44307 | What had become of it? |
44307 | What has kept you away?" |
44307 | What is the use of doing anything to- night? |
44307 | What shall I do?" |
44307 | What shall we do?" |
44307 | What should I do? |
44307 | What time will we get there?" |
44307 | What was he standing upon? |
44307 | What was that sound? |
44307 | What were the secrets it contained? |
44307 | What would be his reputation in Washington? |
44307 | What would he do with this power? |
44307 | What''s this?" |
44307 | What''s wanted?" |
44307 | When the Secretary had received them, he gave one to Cobb, saying:"This small bullet does not look much like a cartridge, does it?" |
44307 | When would he come? |
44307 | Where can I behold the work of his loved mind?" |
44307 | Where is my father?" |
44307 | Where was America? |
44307 | Which is the superior of the two? |
44307 | Who is President Craft? |
44307 | Who is this divinity that can hold your thoughts so enthralled when_ I_ am near?" |
44307 | Who knows? |
44307 | Whom would he meet? |
44307 | Why are you so sad to- night?" |
44307 | Why do you look at me in such a manner?" |
44307 | Why must I thus always beat about the bush to seek your society?" |
44307 | Why should I falter? |
44307 | Why was he thus descending into a barren, icy plain miles yet from the pole? |
44307 | Why was it not opened at the proper time? |
44307 | Why was it sent to the Treasurer of the United States, with instructions not to be opened before a hundred years had passed? |
44307 | Will he still love me?" |
44307 | Will it give you pleasure if I tell you that I swear to be true to you-- to wait until you have grown to womanhood? |
44307 | Will you always bear me the love you profess for that other?" |
44307 | Will you give me life? |
44307 | Will you go with me and aid me? |
44307 | Will you not make a confidant of me and tell me all about your loves?" |
44307 | Will you stop the drag a moment?" |
44307 | With a quick, shaking movement, Cobb raised his head, and turned toward the speaker:"What is it, Hugh? |
44307 | With wealth, position, wit, and beauty, what more can you desire? |
44307 | Without replying to the questions, Cobb simply asked:"Will you get the authority for a few simple changes in the construction of this vessel? |
44307 | Words prophetic of what? |
44307 | Would he give up his great undertaking, and live and marry this Hebe, this angel? |
44307 | Would he use it for good, or for evil? |
44307 | Would she not die, if yet alive? |
44307 | Would she quickly forget him, and receive with pleasure the advances of other suitors? |
44307 | Would the woman live through another year? |
44307 | Would there be any difficulty in proving that he was what he claimed to be-- a man who had lived in 1887? |
44307 | Would they succeed? |
44307 | You do not blame me, Mollie, do you?" |
44307 | You do not mean to tell me that these magnificent buildings are built of glass?" |
44307 | You have lived a hundred years; why may you not have known him?" |
44307 | You ought to be ready to get up by this time, I must admit; but that is not to the point: are you in condition to start for Washington to- day?" |
44307 | You will excuse us a few minutes, will you not, Mr. Cobb? |
44307 | You will pardon my rudeness to you this morning, will you not, Colonel Cobb? |
44307 | You will wait until I can claim you from your father? |
44307 | _ Was_ she yet alive? |
44307 | and did her father think that he still remembered his old friends in Duke''s Lane? |
44307 | and how long will their batteries last?" |
44307 | and is it cheaper and as efficient as vapor of water?" |
44307 | and was she not watching and praying for his safe return? |
44307 | and were they the listeners to a lunatic''s chattering discourse? |
44307 | and what would his future be? |
44307 | and where are we now?" |
44307 | can you doubt it?" |
44307 | did I not ask you to meet me here?" |
44307 | did I understand you to say meteorite?" |
44307 | did I? |
44307 | for what is life without him? |
44307 | have I lain here long? |
44307 | he asked again;"are you not joking me? |
44307 | he said, half aloud; then turning to Lieutenant Sibley, he exclaimed:"You spoke of water cylinders; where are they?" |
44307 | is it time to get up? |
44307 | murmured Cobb,"are there no true friends on earth?" |
44307 | or am I awake in the new era?" |
44307 | or are there some few things yet to be gotten ready?" |
44307 | or had he worked out this problem for some great and grand undertaking? |
44307 | or is this some terrible nightmare? |
44307 | or must I go alone?" |
44307 | or, rather, is A. D. 2000 this year?" |
44307 | see it? |
44307 | seeing Cobb so quiet;"or would you like a drink of something to warm the inner man?" |
44307 | she exclaimed; then pointing her delicate finger to a line, she cried:"Do you see that? |
44307 | that I will marry no other woman living but you?" |
44307 | that an-- an-- another is going to take you away from your little girl?" |
44307 | up and down, changeable as a weather- vane; who could expect a stable government? |
44307 | was he not to be envied? |
44307 | what is the matter?" |
44307 | what is this?" |
44307 | you did?" |
44307 | you did?" |
44307 | you spoke to me, did you not?" |
44307 | your friend, for instance, at school?" |
7303 | ''And the people answered,How shall we go about to do this thing, for it seemeth good to us?" |
7303 | ''And when the capitalists saw that the water overflowed, they said to the people:''"See ye not the tank, which is the Market, doth overflow? |
7303 | ''But the people answered, saying:How can we buy unless ye hire us, for how else shall we have wherewithal to buy? |
7303 | Am I to understand that maternity now is unattended with risk or suffering? |
7303 | Am I to understand that there was actually no violent doings in connection with this great transformation? |
7303 | Am I to understand,I asked,"that this is a fair sample of your youth, and not a picked assembly of the more athletic?" |
7303 | Am I to understand,I finally inquired,"that handwriting, and the reading of it, like lock- making, is a lost art?" |
7303 | And are there really cases,I said,"of individuals who thus voluntarily abandon society in preference to fulfilling their social duty?" |
7303 | And can you take your vacation when you please? |
7303 | And did interest represent any economic service to the community on the part of the interest taker in lending his money? |
7303 | And did the European nations fare as well when they passed through the same crisis? |
7303 | And did the people elect the capitalists? |
7303 | And do I understand that there was no compulsion upon anybody to join the public service? |
7303 | And do not these shoes leak in winter? |
7303 | And do you mean to say that there are actually no locksmiths to- day who could open this safe? |
7303 | And has it not occurred to you to wonder why our dress was not like theirs-- why we wear skirts and they do not? |
7303 | And how about other things besides land? |
7303 | And how was it with the men? |
7303 | And so you thought I was shirking? 7303 And the majority, I understand, were the poor, not the rich-- the ones who had the wrong side of the inequalities that prevailed?" |
7303 | And there was no war? |
7303 | And was it only among the wage- earners and the small producers that this glut of men existed? |
7303 | And was this a very large cause of waste? |
7303 | And were they then, at last, enlisted by force? |
7303 | And were you the only person whose property came to him by descent without effort of his own? |
7303 | And what is that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And what was that? |
7303 | And why would they have lacked employment? 7303 And would you call that voluntary service? |
7303 | And you say this amazing depopulation took place at once after the Revolution? |
7303 | Are there any public baths open so late as this? |
7303 | Are these stuffy- looking papers what you used to call wealth? |
7303 | Are you, then, a magician? |
7303 | At about what date,I asked,"do you consider that the revolutionary movement began to pass from the incoherent into the logical phase?" |
7303 | Beyond protecting the capitalist system from its own effects, did the political government do absolutely nothing? |
7303 | But does not the reputation of particular teachers attract students to special universities? |
7303 | But how about the care of children, of the home, etc.? |
7303 | But how about the children? |
7303 | But how about the elaborate statistics on which you base the calculations that guide production? 7303 But how about the married women?" |
7303 | But how about the workmen employed by the capitalists in ministering to their luxuries? 7303 But how do you get it up to this level?" |
7303 | But how is the duty of society to safeguard the lives of its members interfered with when one person, has more capital than another? |
7303 | But is it possible that Edith has not shown you the electroscope? |
7303 | But the citizen also has relations with the public stores from which he supplies his needs? |
7303 | But to the diminution, I suspect, of the picturesqueness of the social panorama? |
7303 | But was he as well off? 7303 But what became of the churches and the clergy when the people found out what blind guides they had been?" |
7303 | But what do you do with such persons? |
7303 | But what has become of all the diamonds and rubies and emeralds, and gold and silver jewels? |
7303 | But what is this that he has been telling you? |
7303 | But what was there,I said,"about 1873 which has led historians to take it as the date from which to reckon the beginning of the Revolution?" |
7303 | But when was the use of animals for food discontinued? |
7303 | But where are the cripples, the deformed, the feeble, the consumptive? |
7303 | But who paid for the votes? |
7303 | But why did not the people elect officials and representatives of their own class, who would look out for the interests of the masses? |
7303 | But why do you attribute this miracle,I exclaimed,"for miracle it seems, to the effect of economic equality on the relation of men and women?" |
7303 | But why not? |
7303 | But would not the rate of profits have been much reduced in the case supposed? |
7303 | But you certainly do not use paper kettles? 7303 But, after all, who was it who started and kept up the quarreling over religion in former days?" |
7303 | But-- but,I exclaimed,"what if it should come on to rain on these paper clothes? |
7303 | By what is the possible production of wealth limited? |
7303 | By whom, then, were they appointed? |
7303 | CAN A MAID FORGET HER ORNAMENTS? |
7303 | Certainly, if you say so,said I, with a shiver,"but are you sure that it is not a trifle cool? |
7303 | Come, doctor,I protested,"do n''t you think a man in my position has enough riddles to guess, without making them up for him?" |
7303 | Did it buy them of the owners, or as to the plants did it build them? |
7303 | Did not men who owned property in a country-- a millionaire, for instance, like myself-- have a stake in it? |
7303 | Did the new order get into full running condition so quickly as that? |
7303 | Did this rent represent any economic service of any sort rendered to the community by the rent receiver? |
7303 | Did you think we were going to give you your death? |
7303 | Do not the histories say so? |
7303 | Do you know, Mr. West,said the former,"it strikes us as very odd that you should have that idea? |
7303 | Do you know, my boy,he said,"it is not often that the whirligig of Time brings round his revenges in quite so dramatic a way as this?" |
7303 | Do you know,I said presently,"that one feature which is missing from the landscape impresses me quite as much as any that it presents?" |
7303 | Do you mean my dress? |
7303 | Do you mean that a form of government which seems to have been the most irresponsible and despotic possible was defended in the name of liberty? |
7303 | Do you mean that the whole United States is laid out in this way? |
7303 | Do you mean that they also are made of paper? |
7303 | Do you mean that you really are afraid you will dream of the old times again? |
7303 | Do you mean that you take regular exercise in a gymnasium? |
7303 | Do you see that snakelike cord trailing away over the broken ground behind each machine? 7303 Do you see that young man yonder in the chair with so many of the others about him?" |
7303 | Does that list exhaust the number of women''s occupations in your day? |
7303 | Evidently,I said,"these are plows, but what drives them?" |
7303 | For example? |
7303 | From what source? |
7303 | HOW COULD WE INDEED? |
7303 | Has this belief,I asked,"been thus far practically confirmed by any progress actually made in the assurance of what is true as to these things? |
7303 | Have n''t you some real money to show us,said Edith,"something besides these papers-- some gold and silver such as they have at the museum?" |
7303 | Have we had enough of economics for the day? |
7303 | Have you any idea,I asked,"how much this credit of$ 4,000 would have been equal to in purchasing power in 1887?" |
7303 | Have you ever looked over any of the treatises which our forefathers called political economies, at the Historical Library? |
7303 | How about public holidays; have you abandoned them? |
7303 | How about the condition of the masses in a country thus reduced to commercial vassalage to the capitalists of another country? 7303 How about the women?" |
7303 | How could it have been true? |
7303 | How did the Government acquire the lands and manufacturing plants it needed? |
7303 | How did the capitalists resist inventions? |
7303 | How did they make that out? |
7303 | How do you make that out? |
7303 | How does our banking system strike you as compared with that of your day? |
7303 | How does the integrated character of the economic system affect our attitude toward improvements or inventions of any sort in economic processes? |
7303 | How far does this park extend? |
7303 | How long does this public gymnastic education last? |
7303 | How long is it since people ceased to call themselves Catholics, Protestants, Baptists, Methodists, and so on? |
7303 | How near was the world-- that is, of course, the nations whose industrial evolution had gone farthest-- to this condition when the Revolution came? |
7303 | How so, precisely? |
7303 | How so? |
7303 | How too late? |
7303 | How was it in the United States? |
7303 | How? |
7303 | I beg your pardon,she said, raising her eyebrows a little,"what did I understand you to ask for?" |
7303 | I should suppose so, but why, then, did the poor so eagerly seek to serve the rich when the rich refused with scorn to serve one another? 7303 I suppose you refer to competition?" |
7303 | I understand that in your day hay was the main crop of New England? |
7303 | If all the landlords and money lenders had died over night, would it have made any difference to the world? |
7303 | If men go on,I said,"growing at this rate in the knowledge of divine things and the sharing of the divine life, what will they yet come to?" |
7303 | If, then, the majority did not like any existing arrangement, or think it to their advantage, they could change it as radically as they wished? |
7303 | In just what way,I asked,"did the new order tend to decrease exchanges with foreign countries?" |
7303 | In short,said I,"while under our system we conformed men to things, you think it more reasonable to conform things to men?" |
7303 | In such a race, which crew was likely to fare worse, that of the winning or the losing galley? |
7303 | In what respect, then, were the rich and poor equal? |
7303 | In what way did this law operate? |
7303 | Is it possible that Dr. Leete has not told you of our universal language? |
7303 | Is it possible that the improvement had been so small that there could be a question raised whether there had been any at all? |
7303 | Is it possible you have not guessed that? 7303 Is it possible,"I exclaimed,"that you mean to say people no longer quarrel over religion? |
7303 | Is she to compete in anything? |
7303 | Is this Arlington the same town that was a suburb of the city in my time? |
7303 | It sounds like a riddle, does n''t it? 7303 It sounds so, does n''t it? |
7303 | May I ask what kind of rings, for what sort of use? |
7303 | May not production fall short of possible consumption? 7303 Meanwhile, you see that great building with the dome just across the square? |
7303 | No doubt,I said,"since you preserve our churches as curiosities, you must have better ones of your own for use?" |
7303 | Not wash them!--why not? |
7303 | Now tell us about interest; what was that? |
7303 | Now, what is the explanation? 7303 Of course,"replied the superintendent,"but did it not have the same in your day? |
7303 | Of what use indeed was it that coal had been discovered, when there were still as many fireless homes as ever? 7303 On the other hand, what were the theory and practice pursued by the capitalists in carrying on the economic machinery which were under their control? |
7303 | Opportunities for what? |
7303 | Said not the serpent in the old story,''If you eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge you shall be as gods''? 7303 Should you have supposed that it would so operate?" |
7303 | Since you furnish so much on public or common account, why not furnish everything in that way? 7303 So much for the intellectual qualities that marked the victors in the race for wealth under the miscalled competitive system; what of the moral? |
7303 | Talking about housework,I said,"how did they manage about houses? |
7303 | Talking of paper,said Edith, extending a very trim foot by way of attracting attention to its gear,"what do you think of our modern shoes?" |
7303 | Tell us, Julian,said the doctor,"did the rich go to one another and ask the privilege of being one another''s servants or employees?" |
7303 | Tell us, Robert, did not our ancestors recognize the facts of the situation you have described? 7303 That is to say, one sex paid too much attention to dress and the other too little?" |
7303 | That means, I suppose, that rubbers too as articles of wear have been sent to the museum? |
7303 | The Greater Self-- what does that mean? |
7303 | The least progressive of arts? 7303 Then anybody can set the fashion?" |
7303 | Then if not, and if the examination is to begin in five minutes, are we not likely to be late? |
7303 | Then, on the whole, competition was not a palliative of the profit system? |
7303 | This, you say, is what the nineteenth- century economists themselves taught concerning the outcome of the profit system? |
7303 | To what cause did they ascribe the crises? |
7303 | To what has the struggle of the nations for foreign markets in the nineteenth century been aptly compared? |
7303 | To what have our historians been wo nt to compare the condition of the community under the profit system? |
7303 | Very good,said the doctor;"it will doubtless be very short, and what do you say to attending it this time in person? |
7303 | Was it meant by this expression that there had been actually more food, clothing, and other good things produced than the people could use? |
7303 | Was this so before the great Revolution? |
7303 | Well, and has not such a collection a value to the student of history? |
7303 | Well, to begin with,I said, as the dome of the Statehouse caught my eye,"what on earth have you stuck up there? |
7303 | Were adulteration and scamped work the only devices by which sham reductions of prices was effected? |
7303 | Were farmers the only class of small capitalists who were injured rather than helped by labor- saving machinery? |
7303 | What are the other things that would not be equal? |
7303 | What are you thinking about? |
7303 | What caused the change? 7303 What did that mean?" |
7303 | What do you do? |
7303 | What do you mean by the great bonfire? |
7303 | What do you mean? |
7303 | What do you mean? |
7303 | What do you suppose it is made of? |
7303 | What have you to say of the moral aspect of this expenditure for luxury? |
7303 | What is Edith''s specialty? |
7303 | What is in the safe? |
7303 | What is it that is missing? |
7303 | What is it? |
7303 | What is that about Masters of the Bread? |
7303 | What is that building which we are just passing over that has so much glass about it? |
7303 | What is that you say? |
7303 | What is that? |
7303 | What is that? |
7303 | What is the ranking? |
7303 | What is the topic they discuss? |
7303 | What is the use of going further? |
7303 | What is this mystery? 7303 What is this?" |
7303 | What name did our ancestors give to the various economic disturbances which they ascribed to overproduction? |
7303 | What sort of a feeling? |
7303 | What was rent? |
7303 | What was the excuse? |
7303 | What was the general economic effect of competition? |
7303 | What was the general effect of rent and interest upon the consumption and consequently the production of wealth by the community? |
7303 | What was the idea of it? |
7303 | What was the market? |
7303 | What was the reforesting? |
7303 | What was the term by which they most commonly described the presence in the market of more products than could be sold? |
7303 | What were some of the modes of luxurious expenditure indulged in by the capitalists? |
7303 | What were the methods which the capitalists engaged in production and exchange made use of to bring trade their way, as they used to say? |
7303 | What, on the other hand, will happen if I run through my credit before the year is out? |
7303 | What, on the other hand, would be the effect on consumption of an unequal division of consumable products? |
7303 | Where had the progress been? |
7303 | Who are these? |
7303 | Who is to be the new teacher? |
7303 | Who were they? |
7303 | Why any more than a woman''s? |
7303 | Why could not the world receive earlier the revelation it seems to find so easy of comprehension now? |
7303 | Why did the peace require such a great amount of keeping? 7303 Why not?" |
7303 | Why not? |
7303 | Why should I not? 7303 Why so?" |
7303 | Why then? |
7303 | Why, yes; it is a man''s dress I suppose, is it not? |
7303 | Would not the judges even ask me by what right or title of ownership I claimed my wealth? |
7303 | Would such a thing be possible nowadays as full storehouses and a hungry and naked people existing at the same time? |
7303 | Yes,I said,"it is indeed all there, but why were we so long in seeing it?" |
7303 | You are easily the mistress of my waking thoughts,I said;"but can you rule my sleeping mind as well?" |
7303 | You mean garments made of sheep''s hair? 7303 You mean that it was only the pressure of want or the fear of it that drove the poor to the point of becoming the servants of the rich?" |
7303 | ''If a man love not his brother whom he hath seen, how shall he love God whom he hath not seen?'' |
7303 | --Now, Frank, will you tell us exactly what this proposition means?" |
7303 | Am I saying too much, Julian?" |
7303 | And they said:"''"Behold, what need have ye at all of these capitalists, that ye should yield them profits upon your labor? |
7303 | And were the rich and poor equal in the courts? |
7303 | And why have ye no money? |
7303 | Are they the faces of philosophers? |
7303 | Are ye not our men to do our embassies?" |
7303 | Besides, what is the need? |
7303 | But am I wrong in assuming that ill health was a general condition among your women? |
7303 | But how about the economic operation of this plan?" |
7303 | But the capitalists said to the people:"Shall we hire you to bring water when the tank, which is the Market, doth already overflow? |
7303 | But the capitalists, you say, did not even pretend to feel any responsibility for the welfare of their subjects?" |
7303 | But was it true that all had equal opportunities for getting rich and bettering themselves?" |
7303 | But what assumption could have been more regardless of facts than this? |
7303 | But what is the use of lengthening a list which might be made interminable? |
7303 | But who, think you, were the true friends and champions of private property? |
7303 | But, for that matter, how do you prepare soles of paper that will last?" |
7303 | Ca n''t you tell us,"I added, turning to the superintendent--"how do you moderns diagnose the fashion mania that made our lives such a burden to us?" |
7303 | Can it be that God sends sweeter souls to earth now that the world is so much fitter for them? |
7303 | Can you forgive us, Julian, for taking such an advantage of your ignorance?" |
7303 | Can you reassure us on this point?" |
7303 | Could there conceivably be but one answer to that question? |
7303 | Curious, is n''t it, when one comes to think of it, that the riper civilization has grown, the more perishable its records have become? |
7303 | Did it never occur to you why the families of the well- to- do and cultured in your day were not larger?" |
7303 | Did our great- grandfathers recognize in this excess of goods over buyers a cause of economic disturbance?" |
7303 | Did the individual pursuit of riches under your system necessarily tend to increase the aggregate wealth of the community? |
7303 | Did they not see that this glut of men indicated something out of order in the social arrangements?" |
7303 | Did they receive the same treatment?" |
7303 | Did this first and essential condition of any true competitive struggle characterize the competitive system of your day?" |
7303 | Do I understand that this modern religion is considered by you to be the same doctrine Christ taught?" |
7303 | Do n''t tell me that they have been given up, like wool?" |
7303 | Do tell us what the secret was, Julian?" |
7303 | Do you consider that you really know more about them than we did, or that you know more positively the things which we merely tried to believe?" |
7303 | Do you know that this new social order of which I have so strangely become a witness has hitherto had something of this mirage effect? |
7303 | Do you mean to say that the competition of capitalists for trade never operated to reduce profits?" |
7303 | Do you remember his name?" |
7303 | Do you see the inference?" |
7303 | Do you see the point?" |
7303 | Do you suppose we want to be shut up here forever?" |
7303 | Do you think you would ever have guessed that?" |
7303 | Does not that imply, practically, a governmental control or initiative in fashions of dress?" |
7303 | Doth nothing come out of much?" |
7303 | Doth plenty breed famine? |
7303 | Doubtless I am overlooking some important fact, but did you not say that all the people, at least all the men, had a voice in the government?" |
7303 | Finally, what is implied in the equal right of all to the pursuit of happiness? |
7303 | Fine- looking young people, are they not? |
7303 | HOW ABOUT THE WOMEN? |
7303 | Had you not noticed that you were offered no such food?" |
7303 | Has that process gone on, or has it possibly been reversed?" |
7303 | Has the sculptor idealized them? |
7303 | Have I erred in describing the working of your system in this particular, Julian?" |
7303 | Have we not painted too black a picture? |
7303 | Have you anything to say on that point beyond what has been said?" |
7303 | Have you reflected that if I had dreamed it all you would have had no existence save as a figment in the brain of a sleeping man a hundred years ago?" |
7303 | How can men be free who must ask the right to labor and to live from their fellow- men and seek their bread from the hands of others? |
7303 | How cometh it that ye may not come by the water in the tank? |
7303 | How could we ever bring ourselves to eat you?'' |
7303 | How do you manage that now?" |
7303 | How does this theory agree with the facts stated in the histories?" |
7303 | How else could it have assessed and collected taxes or exacted a dozen other duties from citizens? |
7303 | How is it about that?" |
7303 | How is it that our profits are become unprofitable to us, and our gains do make us poor? |
7303 | How many of the great fortunes heaped up by the self- made men of your day, Julian, would have stood that test?" |
7303 | How was he going to go about it? |
7303 | How was it in this respect under the rule of the rich? |
7303 | How was it settled who should have the good houses and who the poor?" |
7303 | How was that managed? |
7303 | How was that?" |
7303 | How were they able to make so much trouble?" |
7303 | I asked,"that the workers in each trade regulate for themselves the conditions of their particular occupation?" |
7303 | I sincerely hope you will forgive me, in consideration of my motive, and not----""Not what?" |
7303 | I whispered-- for, in spite of his assurance, I could not realize that they did not hear me--"are we here or there?" |
7303 | If she ever was his equal, why did she cease to become so, and by a rule so universal? |
7303 | If such a person should flatly refuse to render any sort of industrial or useful service on any terms, what would be done with him? |
7303 | In that case what was the result?" |
7303 | Is it not because ye have no money? |
7303 | Is it not so?" |
7303 | Is not that what we have been talking about?" |
7303 | Is that too much to say? |
7303 | Is that what you mean?" |
7303 | Just when was it discontinued?'' |
7303 | May not the demand for consumption exceed the resources of production?" |
7303 | Most of the farmers of the West were pulling in it toward the end of the nineteenth century.--Was it not so, Julian? |
7303 | No doubt there is a compulsory side to your system for dealing with such persons?" |
7303 | Now can the English workman live on less wages than before? |
7303 | Now tell us, Julian, was your million dollars the result of your economic ability, the fruit of your industry?" |
7303 | Now what could an apologist of private capitalism and the profit system possibly have to say about the science of wealth? |
7303 | Now, Emily, what would be the natural effect of such a lack of correspondence between the inlet and the outlet capacity of the cistern?" |
7303 | Now, did the capital wasted in these two ways represent all that the profit system cost the people?" |
7303 | Now, how do you account for that? |
7303 | Now, is it not possible that we have done it injustice? |
7303 | Now, the making of garments is carried on, I suppose, like all your other industries, as public business, under collective management, is it not?" |
7303 | Now, were not our clergymen justified in counting on the continued support of women, whatever the men might do?" |
7303 | Now, what notable characteristic and main feature of the business system of our forefathers resulted from the glut thus produced?" |
7303 | Now, what will compel the people to exercise vigilance as to the public administration? |
7303 | On what ground would you refuse to return me my million, for I assume that you would refuse?" |
7303 | Presently she said:"What were we talking about? |
7303 | See ye not how by this means the tank must overflow, being filled by that ye lack and made to abound out of your emptiness? |
7303 | Shall you consider it impertinent if I try to make the matter a little clearer to them?" |
7303 | Tell me, were the families of the well- to- do and cultured class in the America of your day, as a whole, large?" |
7303 | That would have made a more difficult problem to deal with, would it not?" |
7303 | The prospect of rising as a motive to reconcile the wage- earner or the poor man in general to his subjection, what did it amount to? |
7303 | The question first suggested by this statement is: To whom, to what class did these contrasts tend to make life more amusing? |
7303 | To their question, Who was to pay them for what the people had taken from them? |
7303 | To what was this outburst of inventive genius due?" |
7303 | To whom, then, properly belongs that two hundredfold enhancement of the value of every one''s labor which is owing to the social organism?" |
7303 | Was it a conviction that health would be favored by avoiding flesh?" |
7303 | Was it because the poor so loved the rich?" |
7303 | Was it necessarily worse than the condition of the masses of the superior country?" |
7303 | Was it not so?" |
7303 | Was it your statesmen, perchance your economists, your scholars, or any other of your so- called wise men? |
7303 | Was the old system of property distribution, by which the few held the many in servitude through fear of starvation, an exception to this rule? |
7303 | Was this claim well based?" |
7303 | Was this of the same nature?" |
7303 | Well might Americans say to themselves''If such things are done in the green tree, what shall be done in the dry?'' |
7303 | Were not the odds against him far greater in the latter struggle than they could have been, if he were a tolerably good shot, in the former? |
7303 | Were they bigoted also? |
7303 | Were they tools of the ecclesiastics?" |
7303 | What are you turning so red for?" |
7303 | What chattel- slave system ever made a record of such wastefulness of human life, as that? |
7303 | What could be expected save what resulted-- a dwarfed and enfeebled physique and a semi- invalid existence? |
7303 | What did I say to the theater for that evening? |
7303 | What did the new order do with them? |
7303 | What did the world, as a rule, think of the great fortune- makers of your time? |
7303 | What do you see down there to suggest a question?" |
7303 | What do you suppose, now, this costume of mine cost?" |
7303 | What great thing do they wherefore ye render them this tribute? |
7303 | What has Julian been telling you?" |
7303 | What have you to say as to the merits of this controversy?" |
7303 | What is liberty? |
7303 | What is life without its material basis, and what is an equal right to life but a right to an equal material basis for it? |
7303 | What is that ground?" |
7303 | What is the difficulty?" |
7303 | What need for excuses or defenders had a system so deeply based in usage and antiquity as this? |
7303 | What sort of human types did they represent? |
7303 | What useful work could have been got out of such people as we were, however well disposed we might have become to render service? |
7303 | What was competition and what caused it, referring especially to the competition between capitalists?" |
7303 | What was his plan?" |
7303 | What was luxury?" |
7303 | What was that?" |
7303 | What was the basis of final settlement?" |
7303 | What was there about the old system of private capitalism to account for a_ fiasco_ so tremendous?" |
7303 | What was to be left even to the next generation?" |
7303 | What were the facts?" |
7303 | What were the other two?" |
7303 | What were the qualities and practices which the successful seeker after great wealth must systematically cultivate and follow? |
7303 | What wonder that their riches became a badge of ignominy and their victory their shame? |
7303 | Where could we have been fitted into any sort of industrial service without being more hindrance than help?" |
7303 | Who indeed would not have been impatient in their place, and cried as they did,''How long, O Lord, how long?'' |
7303 | Who settles the question what you shall wear?" |
7303 | Who was there to fight on the other side? |
7303 | Why add reproach to the burden of such a failure as that? |
7303 | Why are they not mine now, and why should they not be returned to me?'' |
7303 | Why did n''t I feel that way about the duty of working in the nineteenth century? |
7303 | Why did n''t it keep itself, as it does now?" |
7303 | Why did not the farmer, as a sort of capitalist, pile up his profits on labor- saving machinery like the other capitalists?" |
7303 | Why did their censures effect no change?" |
7303 | Why do you laugh? |
7303 | Why not? |
7303 | Why should we not? |
7303 | Why so?" |
7303 | Why was this?" |
7303 | Will it be said that at least the later theory of inheritance was more humane, although one- sided? |
7303 | Will ye mock us? |
7303 | Will you tell me who or what sets the fashions?" |
7303 | Wo n''t you please tell me, then, what they meant by calling themselves free and equal?" |
7303 | Would they not have been thrown out of work if luxury had been given up?" |
7303 | Would they not melt, and at a little strain would they not part?" |
7303 | You are Julian West?" |
7303 | exclaimed Mr. Barton, when I told him this;"who would have expected it? |
7303 | he asked as we left the house,"or would you like to attend the afternoon session the teacher spoke of?" |
7303 | how can you possibly warm such great bodies of water, which are so constantly renewed, especially in winter?" |
7303 | no, why should they? |
7303 | said I,"do n''t you write letters any more?" |
7303 | said the doctor,"what has so suddenly dried up the fountains of your pity? |
7303 | there is then at least one invalid?" |
7303 | why not?" |
7303 | why should we give you of the water which we have gathered, for then we should become even as ye are, and perish with you? |
