26723	Who''d take care of you, father?"
26723	Why did n''t you tell me that you had a gray kitten?
26723	Will you ask her, Faith?"
26723	Will you, Aunt Prissy?"
26723	Will your mother make pies again to- morrow?"
26723	Would n''t it be fun to have dolls that we could make up names for, and then have them do all sorts of things?"
26723	You shall have one as soon as they are baked; may she not, mother dear?"
26723	You will be Aunt Prissy''s little girl, wo n''t you?
26723	You wo n''t, will you?"
26723	You would n''t let me try that one on, would you?"
26723	and why did her aunt not have servants?
5347	And the schoolhouse-- that schoolhouse where I went today-- was that built THEN?
5347	Are n''t you ever afraid, Betsy, in the woods this way?
5347	Are you hurt, Molly?
5347	Aunt Abigail,she said,"how long ago was that?"
5347	Betsy, do n''t you want to pop us some?
5347	But honestly, Aunt Frances, WON''T it be a bother...?
5347	But how MUCH shall I put in?
5347	But how''ll''Lias know who to thank?
5347	But what do they burn in it, coke or coal or wood or charcoal? 5347 CAN I pick one up?"

5347	How much does it cost to go to Hillsboro on the cars?
5347	How''ll you ever do it?
5347	I can just hear those dogs yelping, ca n''t you?
5347	I wonder how long it takes for it to harden?
5347	Is he just living there ALONE, with that good- for- nothing stepfather? 5347 Is n''t this Betsy?"

5347	Was George Washington alive then?
5347	Well, folks,said Aunt Abigail,"do n''t you think we''ve done some lively stepping around, Betsy and I, to get supper all on the table for you?"
5347	Well, how''d you get on at school?
5347	Well, they ca n''t pour it right on a dirt road, can they?
5347	Well,said Aunt Abigail, looking up from the pan of apples in her lap,"I suppose you''re starved, are n''t you?
5347	Well,said Cousin Ann,"what has that got to do with''Lias knowing who did it?"
5347	What ails that cat?
5347	What color?
5347	What dress are you going to wear to the Fair, Betsy?

5347	Why, what''s the matter?
5347	Why, where IS the school?

5347	An older man leaned over from the next booth and said:"Will Vaughan?
5347	And I remember?
5347	And do n''t you think Molly would better be eight instead of six?"
5347	And do n''t you want one of those red apples from the dish on the side table?
5347	And how do they get any draft to keep it going?"
5347	And this is what came into her mind as a guide:"What would Cousin Ann do if she were here?
5347	And what''s the use of your reading little baby things too easy for you just because you do n''t know your multiplication table?"
5347	Are n''t these doughnuts good?"
5347	Are there a couple of H. P.''s carved on it?"
5347	Are ye all right?"
5347	As the little girl sat down by her, munching fast on this provender, she asked:"What desk did you get?"
5347	Aunt Abigail asked her now,"What do they do to the road before they pour it on?"
5347	Aunt Abigail looked up:"Finished your letter?
5347	Aunt Frances threw her arm around Betsy and asked again,"Are you SURE, dear?"
5347	Betsy took the cooky, but went on with the conversation by exclaiming,"HOW could ANY- body get along without matches?
5347	But as Molly had not had any notion of the contrary, she only said,"Of course, why not?"
5347	But what if they did n''t get back to the turn till it was so dark they could n''t see it...?
5347	But what of it?
5347	But what was the matter with Uncle Henry?
5347	CHAPTER V WHAT GRADE IS BETSY?
5347	Ca n''t I stay here?
5347	Ca n''t I stay here?"
5347	Cousin Ann broke into the discussion by asking, in her quiet, firm voice,"Why do you want''Lias to know where the clothes come from?"
5347	Cousin Ann looked up from her ironing, nodded, and said:"All through?
5347	Cousin Ann looked up from her rapidly moving iron, and said, in an astonished voice:"Your share?
5347	Cousin Ann shifted her ground and asked another:"Why did you make these clothes, anyhow?"
5347	Did n''t you ever see anybody doing that?
5347	Did you forget about that?"
5347	Did you hurt you?
5347	Did you lose your way?"
5347	Did you notice the deep groove in the top of it?"
5347	Do YOU go up there?
5347	Do n''t you love to run the butter- worker over it?
5347	Do n''t you want to give it some milk?"
5347	Do n''t you want to ride over on top of them, Betsy, and see''em made into cider?"
5347	Do n''t you want to watch and see everything I do, so''s you can answer if anybody asks you how butter is made?"
5347	Do n''t you wonder where we are going to live?"
5347	Do you know what she did, right off, without thinking about it?
5347	Elizabeth Ann looked up now at Aunt Abigail and said,"What is its name, please?"
5347	For my very own?"
5347	Get yourself a piece of bread and butter, why do n''t you?
5347	He from Hillsboro?
5347	He ran up to them, exclaiming,"Are ye all right?
5347	He said, in answer to Betsy''s inquiry:"Vaughan?
5347	He turned to Elizabeth Ann--"Say, little girl, did n''t your uncle say you were to get off at Hillsboro?
5347	How DID you get them open?
5347	How do they get enough to EAT?"
5347	How do they keep it hot?"
5347	How do they keep that stuff from hardening on them?
5347	How in the world DID you wash dishes?
5347	I wonder what was the matter with them?
5347	If I''m second- grade arithmetic and seventh- grade reading and third- grade spelling, what grade AM I?"
5347	Is it quite safe?"
5347	Is n''t that a joke?
5347	Little girls should n''t know about such things, should they, Betsy?"
5347	Or have n''t I told you yet?
5347	Shall I let her in?
5347	She felt-- what was it she felt?
5347	She had failed in her examination, had n''t she?
5347	She said:"Would n''t you better wash your dishes up now before they get sticky?
5347	She was horribly afraid to go up and speak to a stranger, and yet how else could she begin?
5347	She was surprised when the teacher said,"Well, Betsy, how did Molly do?"
5347	Some day they''ll run away on him and THEN where''ll he be?"
5347	Someone called to her,"Is n''t this Betsy?"
5347	Stashie suggested,"Could n''t your Aunt Abigail invite him up to your house for supper and then give him a bath afterward?"
5347	That''s quite a while ago, is n''t it?
5347	Then Ellen said, in a very small voice,"Do you like dolls with yellow hair the best?"
5347	Unless, indeed, old Mrs. Lathrop made her up for the occasion, which I think she would have been quite capable of doing, do n''t you?
5347	What are you doing''way off here?
5347	What could a young one like you do for me?"
5347	What did Aunt Abigail mean?
5347	What did that have to do with her arithmetic, with anything?
5347	What do you mean?"
5347	What does Frances say?"
5347	What have we got in this bookcase?"
5347	What was the matter?
5347	What you going to do?
5347	What''s that?"
5347	What''s the matter?"
5347	What''s the matter?"
5347	What''s the matter?"
5347	What''s the matter?"]
5347	Whatever should she do?
5347	Which one do you like best?"
5347	Which would you rather do, help Ann with the dinner, or me with the supper?"
5347	Who''s the happy man?"
5347	Why did she ask that?
5347	Why do n''t you finish that up first?"
5347	Why was she doing it?
5347	Will Vaughan?
5347	Will you let me play with her some time?"
5347	Would you like to stay?"
5347	You do it, will you?
5347	You do n''t suppose it could be Elizabeth Ann?
5347	You never heard of any other child who did that, did you?
5347	You never heard of such a thing as taking a doll to school, did you?
5347	You''ll always tell Aunt Frances EVERYTHING, wo n''t you, darling?"
5347	You''re just yourself, are n''t you?

13091	''But did n''t they lick you when you got home?'' 13091 ''Had n''t he ever tried to break away?''
13091	''To New York?'' 13091 ''To Paris?''
13091	''What did he paint?'' 13091 ''When did he go back to Paris?''
13091	''Why, Joey, how old be ye? 13091 A lonely Christmas would you spend By Galilee or Jordan''s tide When a child''s stocking you might fill And hang it by your own fireside?"
13091	Ai n''t it strange what can go on under your eyes and you never know it? 13091 Ai n''t that Warren, all over?
13091	Ai n''t you got no stand- up_ in_ ye?
13091	And the man was French?
13091	And what do you say?
13091	And you had a warm welcome there, I dare say?
13091	And, without really, so to speak, sensing what she was doing, did n''t she put her hand to the rim and start it up again? 13091 Are there not, Piper Tim?
13091	Are you and''Niram always to go on like this? 13091 Aunt Emeline?"
13091	Aye, lad, who else?

13091	Be you sick?
13091	But how,...another voice exclaimed,"air you goin''to get enough for''em to eat?
13091	But then you are the enemy of God-- the chosen one of Beelzebub----"Do they call me_ that_ in polite and pious Hillsboro?
13091	But what dog did you kill?
13091	But who is to dig the ground, and plant, and weed, and water, and all?

13091	But, boy, lad, what''s your name? 13091 But_ what?_"her parents wondered with an utter ignorance of the world outside of Woodville which astonished J.M.
13091	Ca n''t the doctor do anything to relieve her?
13091	Ca n''t you see she''s got to a ticklish place on the quilt?
13091	Ca n''t you think of anything but Ev''leen Ann and her affairs?
13091	Children cried when you came away, and gave you dotty little things they''d made themselves?
13091	Did any of the horses in our town race?
13091	Did he die?
13091	Did n''t she have any_ folks_ to help her out?
13091	Did n''t she tell you anythin''''bout taxes?
13091	Did n''t you see it? 13091 Did you ever hear of a place called Vermont?"
13091	Did you really go?
13091	Did you tell the station agent to hold the trunk?
13091	Die? 13091 Do n''t th''ham smell good, ye spalpeens, fresh from runnin''th''hills?
13091	Do n''t you mean to have any service this Christmas?
13091	Do n''t you people know how hot and smelly it is in here?
13091	Do n''t you want to go on with that quiltin''pattern?
13091	Do you mean she''s stuck- up and wo n''t answer you?
13091	Do you mean you do not know why?
13091	Do you remember how surprised Aunt Su was when you made up a pattern?
13091	Do you think you are so big it takes the whole Necronsett valley to hold you?
13091	Eh, so? 13091 Farrar, what''s the_ matter_ with you lately?"
13091	For what goes she to the city?
13091	Found the old town in good condition?
13091	Good land, what time o''day do you suppose it can be? 13091 Happen?"
13091	Have n''t you heard men talk before?
13091	He was--?
13091	Heavens and earth, Vieyra, what beastly, ghastly, brutally tragic horror are you telling us, anyhow?
13091	How about the Leavitts? 13091 How about the preserves?"
13091	How can you sing and laugh and walk so lightly?
13091	How did you hear''twan''t so?
13091	How is the boy?
13091	How is your stepmother feeling to- day,''Niram?
13091	How looked he when they bore him out?
13091	How looked he when they bore him out?
13091	How many?
13091	How so?
13091	How so?
13091	How would you like to have brazen models and nasty statues made in the building where your own folks have always gone to church?
13091	How''d ye come to go there, Jed?
13091	How_ could_ you kill a great big dog like Jack?
13091	Indeed? 13091 Is Ivan that tall, shy, sad- looking boy who goes with his father to work?"
13091	Is it here?
13091	Is n''t it too bad?
13091	Is n''t there any hot water in the house?
13091	Is that the new quilt you''re beginning on?
13091	Is this the Indian herb- doctor?
13091	Is this the road to Woodburn?
13091	It''s in my blood to fight and fight and fight--"And then what?
13091	Little Frank worse?
13091	Master Doctor, will not Captain Winthrop absorb, perchance, some of the great virtue of the plant away from Ann Mary? 13091 May I-- may I see him once again?"
13091	Moira O''Donnell? 13091 Never known to drink, either, I suppose?"
13091	Nothing the matter with her other boy?
13091	Oh, Mr. Petrofsky, may I have a few minutes''talk with you about your son?
13091	Oh, did I wake you up?
13091	Oh, do you mean it is not_ true_?
13091	Oh, of course, your old home?
13091	Oh, sir,she cried to the doctor,"is it dear, your cure?
13091	Shall I send Ev''leen Ann out to get the pitcher and glasses?
13091	Some genuine Masaccio, picked up in a hill- town monastery-- a real Ribera?
13091	Susie all right?
13091	Taxes? 13091 That was quite a sight of money to come in without your expectin'', wa''n''t it?"
13091	The little Harris boy?
13091	Then do you think your God less merciful than you?
13091	They think a lot o''Joel, do n''t they?
13091	Timothy Moran, you''re not putting your foolish notions in the head of that innocent child o''God, Moira O''Donnell, are you?
13091	Twinty- one years? 13091 Two years ago, was''t?"
13091	Vat is_ zat_?
13091	Wa''n''t our tree good enough?
13091	Well, Mr. President, what can I do in the matter? 13091 Well, it was wuth it, warn''t it, Joey?"
13091	What became of the horns, Jed? 13091 What did the doctor from foreign parts ask?"
13091	What did you do?
13091	What did you tell him?
13091	What do you think killed him?
13091	What do you want to see_ them_ for?
13091	What does he mean?
13091	What had I to offer him?
13091	What in the world is he bringing me a letter for?
13091	What is that, LeMaury?
13091	What of it?
13091	What you doin''here?
13091	What''s it for?
13091	What''s the matter with you, Nat?
13091	What''s the matter with young folks nowadays, anyhow? 13091 What''s the matter, Aunt Amelia?"
13091	What''s the matter?
13091	What?
13091	What?
13091	What_ is_ the matter?
13091	What_ of_?
13091	Where did you ever get hold of_ that_ old name? 13091 Who did it look like?"
13091	Who? 13091 Why did you linger in the garden and forget your duty?"
13091	Why do n''t you send her to a school of design?
13091	Why do you sit on the Round Stone evenings?
13091	Why not? 13091 Why should she not sing?"
13091	Why sure, Timmy darlint, has n''t anybody; iver told ye I was married? 13091 Why, Mehetabel Elwell, where''d you git that pattern?"
13091	Why, Natty, what''s the trouble?
13091	Why, was it as bad as that paper said?
13091	Why, what''s Nathaniel doin''here?
13091	Why, who are they, anyhow?
13091	Why, you do n''t have to talk''bout foreign parts or else keep still, do ye?
13091	Would n''t I better go and see if Miss Hulett is at home?
13091	Yes, do, for goodness''sakes, haul me up, will ye? 13091 Yes, yes,"she cried;"who else?
13091	You can laugh now,whispered the boy, close at his knee,"but when you come to die?
13091	You did n''t find the little boy in the asylum?
13091	You do n''t suppose those great friends of yours, the nerve specialists, would object to my telling you a story, do you? 13091 You mean Mrs. Purdon, do n''t you?"
13091	You''ll see the president... you''ll fix it?
13091	You''re a trustee of the church, are n''t you? 13091 You''re_ not_ his Uncle Jerry,_ are_ you?"
13091	Young Everett, of all the people you have seen, is there one whom you would wish to have even a moment of the tortures of hell?
13091	Your great- grandfather?
13091	_ Do n''t_ it?
13091	''How about the picture?
13091	''Most eight, ai n''t it?
13091	''To leave them?
13091	''Where you be''n?''
13091	''Who can tell of life and death and a new birth?
13091	''You think you''re awful smart, do n''t you, making fun of poor old Jed as he lies a- dying?
13091	''_ What_?
13091	An''the children-- the boys, that is, that this is their room-- isn''t it out in the barn they''re sleepin''on the hay?
13091	An''what_ is_ ye''r pay, Tim?
13091	And had he not lived in prosperity with them ever since?
13091	And how under the sun and stars did you ever git your courage up to start in a- making it?
13091	And then he screamed out--''twas dreadful to hear:"''Why, did n''t you fellers_ believe_ me?
13091	And then what happens?
13091	And they had called him back from there--_here_?
13091	And would you rather hear Cathedral choirs in cities far Than one at bedtime, on your lap, Say''Twinkle, twinkle, little star''?"
13091	Are there not?
13091	Are ye fillin''her mind with your sidhe[A] and your red- hatted little people an''your stories of''gentle places''an''the leprechaun?"
13091	Are you sick?"
13091	As I went by the wood- pile, I grabbed up a big stick of wood----""What kind of wood?"
13091	As a boy he had prayed for the one thing he wanted, and what had it come to?
13091	As the Frenchman came into sight, the old man turned to Nathaniel,"Is this the gentleman who painted your willows?"
13091	But did he never try to sell any himself?
13091	But_ what_ wind?
13091	Ca n''t a neighbor send her in a few bottles of grape- juice without her thinking she must pay it back somehow?
13091	Ca n''t anybody help you?"
13091	Ca n''t ye niver just_ live_?"
13091	Can young master draw?
13091	Catalogue the books?
13091	Did any of_ my_ folks ever look so like a born fool?
13091	Did he never even show them to anyone?''
13091	Did n''t you_ see_ it?"
13091	Did the state pay part o''that?
13091	Did they answer?
13091	Did you think I was_ lyin_?''"
13091	Do n''t he beat_ all_?"
13091	Do n''t you think Sigurd is a real big boy for only six and a half?
13091	Do you know America, either of you?"
13091	Do you know why Uncle Grid lived so poor and scrimped and yet left no money?
13091	Dost thou repent thee of thy unbelief in the true faith?"
13091	Doth he know aught of_ chiaroscuro_?"
13091	Eliza felt dreadful about it, but what can they do?
13091	Finally,"But what did you start to tell me about him?"
13091	Finally,"Shall I tell''Niram-- What shall I say to Ev''leen Ann?
13091	From Jamaica where?
13091	Gran''ther Pendleton?
13091	Had he a wife?"
13091	Had he always painted?
13091	Had he never shown them to anyone?
13091	Has n''t it a foolish sound, now?"
13091	Have n''t you your flask with you?"
13091	He tried vainly to exorcise this anguish by naming it What was it?
13091	Honest, Mehetabel, did you think of it yourself?
13091	How about the law of gravity?
13091	How can I arrange not to lose this pearl among artists?"
13091	How can I tell you--?
13091	How can I tell you?"
13091	How far he wondered, could he go on that money?
13091	How much do the summer folks down to th''village know''bout the way we live?''
13091	How_ could_ your stepmother give such a thing away?
13091	However did you learn that there are painters in the world, here in this prison- house of sanctity?"
13091	However in the world did old Mrs. Purdon know about Ev''leen Ann-- that night?"
13091	I ate my lunch right there too, and I''m as glad as can be I did, too; for what do you think?"
13091	I heard Paul say,"What''s the matter?"
13091	I said again, shocked, and then tentatively,"Had he...?"
13091	I''ve come back for my pipes, and I''m goin''out to play to th''little people-- an''oh, shall old Piper Tim go without Moira?"
13091	If a stranger remarked,"Old man Chillingworth can tell a tale or two, ca n''t he?"
13091	Is it true that no one knows anything of his life?"
13091	Is that strange?
13091	Is''t all just work or play with ye?
13091	Is''t that ye''re the seventh son?
13091	Is''t that ye''ve second sight?
13091	Is''t that--_what_ is''t that makes ye so far away?
13091	It inter_est_ed you now, did n''t it, to have a chance really to see the old place?"
13091	It seems that... say, did you ever hear that Grandfather Gridley, the Governor, was such a bad lot?"
13091	It''s not possible, is''t, that the J. on your handkerchief stands for Jerry, too?"
13091	Italy, now... had she been there?
13091	Its last?
13091	May I ask what it was you promised her?"
13091	Miss Abigail quailed a little, but rallying, she brought out,"What''s the matter with the Bennetts?
13091	Mistress Everett fell back, her hand at her heart,"To_ that_ house?"
13091	Mr. Elwell asked,"What did you think of that big ox we''ve heard so much about?"
13091	Must one have much silver for it?"
13091	Nathaniel crept closer and whispered under cover of his father''s thunderings,"Oh, you are truly not afraid?"
13091	No?
13091	Oh,_ wo n''t_ you come in?
13091	Purdon?"
13091	Queer business, anyhow, was n''t it?
13091	She thought and she_ thought_, and all she could say was''olives,''Nothing else?
13091	Should She show herself or let them go on?
13091	Sure, somethin''ought to happen on such a day-- oughtn''t it?"
13091	The family noticed the old woman''s depression, and one day Sophia said kindly,"You feel sort o''lost without the quilt, do n''t you, Mehetabel?"
13091	The fog risin''too, likely?"
13091	The name slipped out unnoticed in her hospitable fervor"Was n''t it the least we could do when''twas our own Mike''s ball that came near killin''you?
13091	The other woman asked,"Well, what did she say?"
13091	The question is, will Nelse find a wife who will carry on his mother''s work, or will he not?
13091	Then Sophia returned again to the attack,"Did n''t you go to see anything else?"
13091	Then she asked the doctor:"And how long will it take?
13091	There was a silence and then,"Oh, Nathaniel, what was that?"
13091	This is how he told the story, always word for word the same way:"Wa''al, sir, I''ve had queer things happen to me in my time, hain''t I, boys?"
13091	To go back?''
13091	Virginia sat up, hesitating Were they only passing by, or stopping?
13091	WHO ELSE HEARD IT?
13091	Was he painting now?
13091	We were five little children, and the oldest not seven, and we were all very poor,''"''How old was your uncle then?''
13091	Were there many?
13091	Were there others?
13091	What are ye sayin''to me?
13091	What bad dream have we waked you from, you pretty boy?"
13091	What did he know of ordering your life, not only for yourself, but for your parents and grandparents?
13091	What did they raise there?
13091	What difference does it make a century from now, if the likeness is good?
13091	What does the author of a novel do for you, after all, even the best author?
13091	What frights you so?"
13091	What makes you think such a thing?"
13091	What possible reinforcements can you expect?"
13091	What was I livin''on?
13091	What was it?
13091	What would you think of a nurse who put paint and powder on her patient''s face, to cover up a filthy skin disease?
13091	What_ else_ are you planning to do?
13091	When he heard of the public library he inquired quickly how much it cost to run_ that_?
13091	Where be those young ones?"
13091	Where should he go?
13091	Where was the image of the ill- favored little old Jed, so present to my imagination?
13091	Where you goin''to put''em in this little tucked- up place?"
13091	Who else?"
13091	Who else?"
13091	Who''d ha''thought he was like that?"
13091	Who?"
13091	Why did he droop dully now that he was where he had so longed to be?
13091	Why did n''t ye bring''em along?"
13091	Why should I?"
13091	Why should n''t we?
13091	Why?"
13091	Will he not hurt her cure?"
13091	Will you cure her?"
13091	Without an instant''s pause,"How shall I do it?"
13091	Would it not be like heaven to live always in such a place?"
13091	Would n''t that beat all?
13091	Yea, all the dying village thrills With echoes of its cheerful past, The golden days of Salem Hills; Its only golden days?
13091	You brought him away?
13091	You poets and critics, why do you never write of him?
13091	You saw him?
13091	You''ll be ready to start tomorrow, wo n''t you?
13091	You''re not too busy?"
13091	everybody started up eagerly with the cry:"Oh, but have you heard him tell the story of how he rode the moose into Kennettown, Massachusetts?"
15562	''Butchered to make a Roman Holiday''?
15562	A dog?
15562	A real club, Paul?
15562	A week?
15562	About the room and--?
15562	About this afternoon-- with mother?
15562	After all, why should n''t he?
15562	Ai n''t that North Chamber called the''Washington room''?
15562	All ready?
15562	All ready?
15562	Am I in it?
15562	And is n''t it funny, bearing him called Phil?
15562	And it is n''t all gone?
15562	And now, even if it is telling on yourself, suppose you own up, old man?
15562	And please, Mrs. Shaw,Shirley coaxed,"when we come back, may n''t Patience Shaw, H. M., come down and have tea with us?"
15562	And the breaking up of the club, I suppose?
15562	And the girls-- you expect them to fit in, too?
15562	And the lavender dot, for Mother Shaw?
15562	And wear one of them blue- ribbon affairs?
15562	And why that, even? 15562 And will I be in it?"
15562	And yet it seems different, this year, does n''t it?
15562	And you do n''t know yet, what we are to do this afternoon?
15562	And you really think-- anyone could learn to do it?
15562	And you wanted to be here?
15562	And-- Impatience?
15562	Anything up, Paul?
15562	Are n''t they?
15562	Are the vases ready, Shirley?
15562	Are they city people?
15562	Are we going out in a blaze of glory?
15562	Are we going to the lake?
15562	Are we to have a club song?
15562	Are you conductor, or merely club president now?
15562	Are you going to get the new things now, Paul?
15562	Are you through?
15562	Beg pardon, Miss?
15562	But are you expecting company? 15562 But if he only has the tune and not the words,"Josie objected,"what use will that be?"
15562	But what else could it be?
15562	But what makes you think I''ve been writing letters?
15562	But why-- I mean, how did Uncle Paul ever come to send it to us?
15562	But,he expostulated,"what''s a fellow to think up-- in a hole like this?"
15562	But-- Oh, I''m afraid you''ve spent all the first twenty- five on me; and that''s not a fair division-- is it, Mother Shaw?
15562	Ca n''t I do it?
15562	Can I help choose?
15562	Can you do what you like with it, Paul?
15562	Did you go over to the manor to see Shirley?
15562	Do n''t you see? 15562 Do n''t you want to go find Captain, Impatience?"
15562	Do n''t you?
15562	Do you know,he said, as he and Hilary turned out into the wide village street,"I have n''t seen the schoolhouse yet?"
15562	Do you like Winton?
15562	Do you reckon you can show us anything new about that old fort, Paul Shaw?
15562	Do you suppose your father and I do not realize that quite as well as you do, Pauline?
15562	Does mother know about it?
15562	Each in his turn,Mr. Shaw remarked, adding,"and Pauline considers herself through school?"
15562	Fixed it up?
15562	For the new room? 15562 For what?"
15562	For whom?
15562	From where, Patience?
15562	Going away?
15562	Going to salt the colts?
15562	Good afternoon,she said cheerily,"was you wanting to go inside?"
15562	Good news, or not?
15562	Has anything happened?
15562	Has the all- important question been settled yet, Paul?
15562	Have you and Paul chosen all white?
15562	Have you been here long?
15562	Have you decided what we are to do?
15562	Have you decided?
15562	Have you seen any trace of Patience-- and Bedelia?
15562	Have you started a club, too?
15562	Have_ you_ been writing a letter to someone in New York?
15562	Hilary,Pauline said,"would you mind very much, if you could n''t go away this summer?"
15562	Hilary-- wouldn''t you truly rather have a room to yourself-- for a change?
15562	How do you know I have been writing-- anything?
15562	How do you know they''ll, or rather, she''ll, want to know me?
15562	How old are you, my dear?
15562	How perfectly lovely it all is-- but it is n''t for me?
15562	How soon do you suppose we can go over to the manor, Paul? 15562 I do n''t very often have a brand new, just- out- of- the- store dress, do I?"
15562	I hope you''ve worn old dresses?
15562	I suppose so, dear-- only where is the bench part to come from?
15562	I suppose you''re going this afternoon?
15562	I suppose you''ve been over to the forts?
15562	I wonder,Pauline said, more as if speaking to herself,"whether maybe mother would n''t think it good to have Jane in now and then-- for extra work?
15562	I wonder,she said slowly,"if you know what it''s meant to us-- you''re being here this summer, Shirley?
15562	I''m afraid we were rather late; it''s a pretty old church, is n''t it? 15562 I''m going down to the post- office, mother,"she said;"any errands?"
15562	If she knew-- she would n''t stay a single day longer, would she?
15562	Is it far?
15562	Is it-- alive?
15562	Is mine?
15562	Is mother home?
15562	Is n''t it a very-- queer sort of letter?
15562	Is n''t it fun, Paul? 15562 Is n''t it nice for Hilary, mother?
15562	Is n''t it rather-- run down?
15562	Is n''t it the quaintest old place?
15562	Is she pretty?
15562	Is that what you wrote and asked Uncle Paul? 15562 Is the membership to be limited?"
15562	Is there a hidden meaning-- subject to be carefully avoided?
15562	Is there anything more-- to see, I mean, not to eat?
15562	It does appear an excellent idea,he said;"but why should it be Hilary only, who is to try to see Winton with new eyes this summer?
15562	It is hideous, is n''t it, mother? 15562 It must n''t be a picnic, I suppose?
15562	It will be so-- necessarily-- won''t it?
15562	It would n''t do much good if I did, would it?
15562	It''ll be my turn next, wo n''t it?
15562	It''s a beautiful picnic, is n''t it?
15562	It''s a regular company room, is n''t it?
15562	It''s as if someone had waved a fairy wand over it, is n''t it?
15562	It''s like having a fairy godmother, is n''t it? 15562 It''s unspeakably delightful to have money for the little unnecessary things, is n''t it?"
15562	Just we three then?
15562	Know what?
15562	Like the model dinner party?
15562	Looks pretty nice, does n''t it?
15562	May I be excused, mother?
15562	May I come and have tea with you? 15562 May I come and see what you have done-- and talk it over?"
15562	May I get down here, please?
15562	May n''t I give you a lift? 15562 May n''t I, please, go with Paul and Hilary when they go to call on that girl?"
15562	May we, mother?
15562	Miss Brice?
15562	Miss Dayre, may I have the honor?
15562	Mother, do you suppose Miranda''s gone to bed yet?
15562	Mummy, is asking a perfectly necessary question''interrupting''?''
15562	Mummy, is blue or green better?
15562	Mummy,she asked, when later her mother came to take away her light,"father and Uncle Paul are brethren, are n''t they?"
15562	My dear, in this rain?
15562	My dear, who has said that they do not?
15562	Now how do you know that?
15562	Now,Tom asked, when that little matter had been attended to,"what''s the order of the day?"
15562	O Paul, is it-- nice?
15562	O Paul, really,Hilary sat up among her cushions--"Why, it''ll be-- riches, wo n''t it?"
15562	Oh, what have you all been up to?
15562	On whom, Patience?
15562	One of those blue paper things?
15562	Patience and Bedelia?
15562	Patience,Pauline called,"suppose we go see if there are n''t some strawberries ripe?"
15562	Paul, how did you ever dare?
15562	Paul, may n''t I go with you next time you go over to The Maples?
15562	Paul,Hilary asked suddenly,"what are you smiling to yourself about?"
15562	Paul,Hilary asked suddenly,"what are you thinking about?"
15562	Please, I am to sit up in front with you, ai n''t I, Tom?
15562	Please, Miranda, if it would n''t be too much trouble, will you bring Pauline''s bed in here?
15562	Please, may n''t I come?
15562	Please, will you take in a visitor for a few days?
15562	Really?
15562	Rested?
15562	She is n''t much like our old Thèrese at home, is she, Harry? 15562 Since how long?"
15562	So you and Paul are off on your travels, too?
15562	Society of Willing Females, I suppose?
15562	Terribly convincing, is n''t it?
15562	The what?
15562	Then Winton has possibilities?
15562	Then why do n''t they''dwell together in unity''?
15562	Then you''ll help us? 15562 They ca n''t have Fanny, can they, father?"
15562	They''d have to''put the frown away awhile, and try a little sunny smile,''would n''t they?
15562	This club''s growing fast, is n''t it? 15562 This is the Shaw residence, I believe?"
15562	Tired?
15562	To help us choose?
15562	Tom, however--"I beg your pardon, Miss?
15562	Wait and see; by the way, where''s that kitten?
15562	Was I smiling? 15562 Was Josie over yesterday, Hilary?"
15562	Was it a nice letter? 15562 Was that kind?"
15562	Was-- was that the letter-- you remember, that afternoon?
15562	We did get enough, did n''t we? 15562 We got our fun that way, did n''t we, Mother Shaw?"
15562	We had to wait for Paul to write a letter first to--"Are you alone?
15562	Well, mother?
15562	Well,he asked, looking up,"did you get your letter in in time, my dear?"
15562	Well?
15562	What are you doing?
15562	What brought you out in such a storm?
15562	What do you suppose it is, Paul?
15562	What do you think, mother?
15562	What do you want to do with it, Pauline?
15562	What do you want with Miranda?
15562	What else have you been doing for the past fifteen years, if you please, ma''am?
15562	What ever put that idea in your head?
15562	What is Uncle Paul going to do then?
15562	What is it, Hilary?
15562	What is the girl''s first name?
15562	What is the matter, Patience?
15562	What is this particular one?
15562	What sort of good times do you mean?
15562	What''s an honorary member?
15562	What_ are_ you talking about?
15562	When will they begin, and what will they be like? 15562 When will you tell her; or is mother going to?"
15562	Where are we going?
15562	Where are you off to this morning?
15562	Where did you get it?
15562	Where to?
15562	Where''s yours?
15562	Who is it, I wonder?
15562	Who''d want to be company?
15562	Who''s to belong?
15562	Who''s to do the deciding as to the unavoidableness?
15562	Who''s turn is it to be next?
15562	Why did n''t you bring her? 15562 Why did n''t you let her drive all the way, Paul?
15562	Why did n''t you tell me you were going out so I could''ve gone, too? 15562 Why did you not consult your mother, or myself, before taking such a step, Pauline?"
15562	Why do n''t they?
15562	Why not let her choose for herself, Paul?
15562	Why, dear? 15562 Why,"Patience exclaimed,"it''s like an out- door parlor, is n''t it?"
15562	Will anyone want supper, after so many cherries?
15562	Will it be nice-- very nice?
15562	Will they?
15562	Will you tell me,she demanded,"why father insisted on coming''round the lower road, by the depot-- he did n''t stop, and he did n''t get any parcel?
15562	Wo n''t she like it-- all, when she does know?
15562	Would n''t a cozy corner be delightful-- with cover and cushions of the chintz?
15562	Yes, or no, Mother Shaw?
15562	Yes?
15562	You ai n''t come after Hilary?
15562	You ai n''t had your supper yet, have you, Miss Shirley?
15562	You ai n''t took sick, Hilary?
15562	You and Hilary going to be busy tonight?
15562	You and Pauline are through here?
15562	You are better, are n''t you-- already?
15562	You did n''t expect to see me along, did you, Josie?
15562	You did n''t write to Uncle Paul?
15562	You do n''t suppose you could fix that up with mother? 15562 You do n''t think he''s looking around for a nephew to adopt, do you?"
15562	You see how beautifully she has us all in training?
15562	You told him that we could not manage it, Pauline?
15562	You will be able to go on this fall?
15562	You would n''t want to be the only little girl to belong?
15562	You''ll be over again soon, wo n''t you?
15562	You''ll be over soon, Paul?
15562	You''ll stay, Paul?
15562	You''re an artist, too, are n''t you?
15562	You''re having a fine time, are n''t you, Senior?
15562	You''re not going to take Patience home with you, Mrs. Shaw? 15562 You''re tired, are n''t you, Hilary?
15562	You''ve brought Hilary out to stop?
15562	You-- you have fixed it up?
15562	Your sister has been sick?
15562	_ Have_ you brought me something to read? 15562 ''Ai n''t the dining- room to your liking, miss?''
15562	About what, Pauline?"
15562	Ai n''t I, Paul?"
15562	And as if, if you did n''t hurry and get it in-- you wouldn''t-- mail it?"
15562	And did n''t you ask for us all to go?"
15562	And her father was content, too, else how could she have been so?
15562	And how we wanted to read it all?"
15562	And please, you do n''t want to pack me off again anywhere right away-- at least, all by myself?"
15562	And three wishes?
15562	And what have you been up to, Paul Shaw?
15562	And why did n''t father like your doing it?"
15562	Any contrary votes?"
15562	Are they for dresses for us?"
15562	Are we to have badges, or not?"
15562	Boyd?"
15562	But what has Jane to do with your going?"
15562	But, look here, Phil, you''ve got over that-- surely?
15562	But, oh, dear, however can we wait''til he gets back?"
15562	CHAPTER VI PERSONALLY CONDUCTED"Am I late?"
15562	Club''?"
15562	Did he mind your having written?
15562	Did n''t he know you were going to do it?"
15562	Did you ever feel that way about a letter, father?
15562	Do n''t you remember those bits we read in those odd magazines Josie lent us?
15562	Do you think she is, Paul?"
15562	Do you want to speak to them about anything particular?"
15562	Does he live in Winton?"
15562	Had n''t she, Captain?"
15562	Have you decided, Hilary?"
15562	Have you, Paul?"
15562	Her hands were trembling, she had never received a telegram before-- Was Hilary?
15562	Hilary asked, with one of those sudden changes of mood an invalid often shows,"or I her?
15562	Hilary, do n''t you like her?"
15562	How could she have thought him unheeding-- indifferent?
15562	How did one begin a letter to an uncle one had never seen; and of whom one meant to ask a great favor?
15562	How is Hilary to get a chance-- here in Winton?"
15562	I look the part, do n''t I?"
15562	I reckon Hilary''ll be looking for us, do n''t you?"
15562	I reckon you''re going?"
15562	I suppose you know all the wonderful surprises I found waiting me?"
15562	I suppose you live in that square white house next to it?"
15562	I wonder, if it''s more indignant, or pleased, at being dragged out into the light of day for a parcel of young folks?"
15562	If you please, who said anything about your choosing?"
15562	Impatience-- couldn''t we do the spare room over-- there''s that twenty- five dollars?
15562	Is it for us_ all_ to have good times with?
15562	Is n''t it a veritable''chamber of peace,''Hilary?"
15562	Is n''t the poor pater exempt?"
15562	Looking for the old gentleman up, later, be you?"
15562	Lovely day, is n''t it?"
15562	Made pictures are nicer, are n''t they?"
15562	Miranda stood still, her hands in the dish water--"That''s your pa''s own brother, ai n''t it?"
15562	Mother Shaw?
15562	Mother''s home, is n''t she?"
15562	Mother, could n''t we have Jane in for the washing and ironing this week, and let Miranda get right at this room?
15562	Mother, what are you smiling over?"
15562	Must I take a trunk, mother?"
15562	Must I, mother?"
15562	Now she''ll be contented to stay a week or two, do n''t you think?"
15562	O Paul, could n''t we afford chocolate layer cake_ every_ time, now?"
15562	Of course, he knew about the letter; and how could he go on talking about stupid, uninteresting matters-- like the Ladies''Aid and the new hymn books?
15562	Only, I simply had to come home, I felt somehow-- that-- that--""We were expecting company?"
15562	Or just Hilary?"
15562	Paul, do you suppose Mrs. Boyd would mind letting me have supper in here?"
15562	Paul, would n''t it be a''good time,''if Miranda would agree not to scold''bout perfectly unavoidable accidents once this whole summer?"
15562	She wondered now, if Pauline or Hilary would enjoy a studio winter, as much as she was reveling in her Winton summer?
15562	Should she confess at once, or wait until Uncle Paul''s answer came?
15562	Suppose we were all to do so?"
15562	That she is coming to visit us?
15562	That sort of counterbalances the other, does n''t it?"
15562	That was some good out of being bad, was n''t it?
15562	The girls to home?"
15562	The sunsets from that front lawn are gorgeous, do n''t you think so?"
15562	There comes Hilary-- doesn''t look much like an invalid, does she?"
15562	Tom, how ever did you manage it?"
15562	Uncle Paul does live in New York, does n''t he?"
15562	We can have fun now, ca n''t we?"
15562	We may have Fanny some afternoon, may n''t we, father?"
15562	We thought, maybe, you''d like to?"
15562	What are you going to do with them?"
15562	What put that into your head?"
15562	Wherever did you pick up such a lot of town history, Tom?"
15562	Why did n''t we guess?"
15562	Why did n''t you call me?"
15562	Will you come in, or shall we wait out here?
15562	Would Uncle Paul treat her letter as a mere piece of school- girl impertinence, as father seemed to?
15562	You come right''long in, both of you: you''re sure you ca n''t stop, too, Pauline?"
15562	You have n''t been over to the manor lately, have you?
15562	You remember, Hilary?"
15562	You was n''t looking to find company of that sort so near, was you?"
15562	You''ll be up to a ride by next Thursday, Hilary?
15562	You''ll both come and see me soon, wo n''t you?"
15562	You''ll come over now, wo n''t you-- the club, I mean?"
15562	You''re sort of timid''bout things, are n''t you, Hilary?"
15562	You-- I may tell mother-- that you are sorry-- truly, Patty?"
15562	does n''t she?"
15562	she demanded,"is n''t that something more?"
14957	''Twan''t so hard as you thought''twas goin''to be, was it?
14957	A history of_ Ashley_?
14957	A return of hide- bound scruples about the children? 14957 About ready for Henry?"
14957	All done, Arthur?
14957	All ready?
14957	And have you ever had the same sensation in your waking moments? 14957 And what kind of a critter is he?"
14957	Any relation to the lively old lady who brings our milk?
14957	Anybody sick at your house?
14957	Anything the matter, Paul?
14957	Anything you can tell Mother?
14957	Are n''t you awfully hot to go on doing that?
14957	Are n''t you going to answer me?
14957	Are n''t you going to_ tell_ us?
14957	Are n''t you tired?
14957	Are there any things he specially likes?
14957	Are there_ three_ of them?
14957	Are you there, Paul?
14957	Are you?
14957	As though he were sick?
14957	Both?
14957	But look- y- here, the howl about profiteers, is n''t that something new? 14957 But why_ should_ she respect her teacher if her teacher does not deserve that sort of respect?
14957	Ca n''t you ask Mother Powers for whatever it is?
14957	Can you even promise that we wo n''t lose each other there?
14957	Can you sit down and take a second batch right now? 14957 Did Neale_ tell_ you this man had secured the Powers woodlot for him, for Neale, for our mill?"
14957	Did their father tell them the news of Cousin Hetty''s death? 14957 Did you ever use to_ live_ in that house?"
14957	Did you have a good walk, all by yourself, dear?
14957	Do n''t you believe that, Neale, that we would have come together somehow, anyhow?
14957	Do n''t you feel well?
14957	Do n''t you think Henry is a_ very_ handsome pig?
14957	Do n''t you think maybe you''re too much bothered about other people, anyhow?
14957	Do n''t you turn out the lamp, or lock the door, or_ any_thing?
14957	Do you know if Miss Hetty had any favorites?
14957	Do you see how I show this, say this anywhere, tell this to you here, now, where anyone could hear me? 14957 Do you still have those dreams once in a while, Marisette, and do you still love them as much?"
14957	Do you suppose you little folks can get yourselves to bed without me?
14957	Do you think that?
14957	Do you think you know where we are going, across that plain?
14957	Does he get_ you_ to talk?
14957	Does he think I''m trying to put something over on him?
14957	Does n''t he like Crittenden''s? 14957 Does n''t it depend on what you mean by''beauty''?"
14957	Does the other one?
14957	Elly, do n''t you want me to sit by you?
14957	For goodness''sakes, what''s he find up there?
14957	French or Vermont incarnation?
14957	Have a cigarette? 14957 Have you got to the Civil War, in your history yet, Paul?"
14957	Here?
14957	How about it, Paul?
14957	How about it, anyhow, Arthur? 14957 How about it?
14957	How does he like it, anyhow?
14957	How in the world shall I get through the winter?
14957	How_ can_ you think such things without their making you perfectly miserable, without making you want to go straight and cut your throat?
14957	I do n''t know what people do as a rule,she answered, and then asked,"How did Miss Hetty like best to have it, herself?"
14957	I have to think whatever I''m convinced is true, whether it makes me miserable or not, do n''t I?
14957	I wonder if_ my_ voice quivered and deepened like that, when I was courting Annunziata?
14957	If it is not that, what is it?
14957	In the Ford? 14957 Is n''t it funny,"she mused,"that I should know so much more about it than you?
14957	Is n''t it perhaps ostentatious to call the family saw- mill a''mighty machine''?
14957	Is that a train, at this hour?
14957	Is that masculine jealousy, or real affection?
14957	Is that you, Marise?
14957	It''s too beautiful to be real, is n''t it?
14957	Like Henry James, perhaps?
14957	Like Milton''s Satan, is n''t it?
14957	Marise,he said roughly,"what under the sun is it?"
14957	May I have a little more of the_ blanquette_, if I wo n''t be considered a glutton?
14957	May I sit down for a moment?
14957	May I smoke? 14957 Maybe we might have time to have me show you the back- road by Cousin Hetty''s, and get back by the men''s short- cut before breakfast, maybe?
14957	Mother, are n''t you and father afraid of anything?
14957	Mother, may we tell Touclà © to put the syrup on to boil?
14957	Mother,she asked, urgently, in a loud, frightened whisper,"Mother, do we die like that?
14957	Neale,she challenged him,"do n''t you put_ any_ limits on this?
14957	Now what is the matter about the oil you ca n''t put on? 14957 Oh, Mr. Welles,"Marise appealed to him,"do you think that is the truth of the facts?"
14957	Oh, do n''t you think maybe there''s a drift the other way among decent business people now? 14957 Oh, how_ could_ you think that?"
14957	Oh, you do, do you?
14957	Paul, can you be trusted to pour the hot chocolate?
14957	Please what?
14957	Ready to turn over, dears?
14957	Say, Mother,he said in her ear,"would you just as soon get in back with me for a while?"
14957	See here, Mark,his mother put it to him as man to man,"do you think you ought to sit down to the table looking like that?"
14957	She was born in Arkansas, and brought up in Minnesota, what did you suppose? 14957 Strenuous, three of them at once, are n''t they?"
14957	That''s the way saints usually run their business, is n''t it?
14957	To speak about it first, or to wait till he does?
14957	Upon my word, who''s idealizing the Yankee mountaineer now?
14957	Vincent,he asked,"do you remember the address of that Mr. Schwatzkummerer who grew nothing but gladioli?"
14957	Well, even so, who knows what notion a kid will take into his head? 14957 Well, how does it begin, anyhow, and what''s it got to do with us?"
14957	Well, what do they_ do_ with themselves, two great hulking men set off by themselves?
14957	Well, what does it matter if I do? 14957 Well, what was_ that_, do you suppose?"
14957	Well, what''s_ he_ like?
14957	Well, why should n''t we?
14957	Well, you goin''?
14957	Well, you have n''t for hers, have you?
14957	Were n''t there very many on the bushes?
14957	Were the biscuits good?
14957	Were you able to sleep at all, Marise? 14957 What did you want, dear?"
14957	What do you suppose Freud would make out of such dreams?
14957	What do you think of our aboriginal folk- dancing? 14957 What do_ you_ know about your uncle?"
14957	What does she want?
14957	What has happened to you?
14957	What has happened?
14957	What in the world are wool- hetchels?
14957	What is that great cliff of bare rock called?
14957	What is the best thing to do?
14957	What is this delicious dish?
14957	What made it fall? 14957 What must you got to do?"
14957	What nationality is she, herself?
14957	What possible reason in the world have you for not wanting to?
14957	What shall I have for lunch today?
14957	What sort of a man, do you remember?
14957	What time did you say it is?
14957	What was it she asked me then? 14957 What was the matter?"
14957	What was your letter?
14957	What''s the news from your father?
14957	What''s the trouble? 14957 What''s the use?
14957	What''s the vibration- cure?
14957	What? 14957 What_ is_ a night- blooming cereal?"
14957	When will Mr. Crittenden be back?
14957	When''s he going to get through his business, up there?
14957	Where do they come from anyhow, the men who work in your father''s mill?
14957	Where do they live? 14957 Where do you want your personally conducted to begin, dear?"
14957	Where does she go?
14957	Where is he going?
14957	Where is the big world?
14957	Where is the drawing- room car?
14957	Which hen is his mother, Elly? 14957 Who is satisfied with the verdict now?"
14957	Who''s that come bursting into the kitchen?
14957	Whose name?
14957	Why ca n''t you?
14957	Why did you say that about what a modern, free European woman would do in your place? 14957 Why do n''t they stand up for themselves?"
14957	Why do n''t you say it, if that is what you mean?
14957	Why must he stop being so pure, so_ safe_? 14957 Why yes, why not?
14957	Why, Elly darling, what''s the matter?
14957	Why, Mother, how_ could_ you be any better than you are?
14957	Why, Mr. Welles,cried Marise again,"what do you say to such talk?
14957	Why, darling, what''s the matter?
14957	Why, do you drink coffee?
14957	Why, what''s the matter, dear?
14957	Whyn''t you sit down over there and undo the lunch- basket? 14957 Wo n''t you take him downstairs, please, and give him a dish of porridge for me?"
14957	Would all you children like that best?
14957	Would n''t Eugenia and Vincent Marsh love this conversation?
14957	Would n''t you like to come, too?
14957	Would you like to go quite close and look at it, children?
14957	Yes, ai n''t it great?
14957	Yes, but in Heaven''s name, why_ do_ we send her to school? 14957 Yes, dear, what is it?
14957	Yes, quite a flight of fancy for me, was n''t it?
14957	Yes, what is it?
14957	You do n''t mean to say that my Uncle Benton had pep enough to have a scandal in his life?
14957	You know where to find the cookies, do n''t you, Elly?
14957	You think I''m just silly and childish, do n''t you?
14957	You were about eleven years old when you saw it last, were n''t you?
14957	You would n''t tell anybody?
14957	You''re not pretending that you get Vermonters to make music?
14957	You''re sure you are n''t going to be sorry to go back to America to live, to leave all that?
14957	Your feet are n''t wet, are they?
14957	''If they get their dividends all right, what more do they want?''
14957	''Why should n''t he?''
14957	''lying down''?"
14957	***** Elly had been staring at her mother''s face for a moment, and now said,"Mother, what_ makes_ you look so awfully serious?"
14957	***** Was that really Melancholy?
14957	***** What miraculous thing happened then?
14957	*****"Or would you think an Easter one, like''The Strife Is O''er, the Battle Won,''more appropriate?"
14957	*****"What in the world are we going to see?"
14957	?
14957	?
14957	?
14957	?
14957	?
14957	?"
14957	?"
14957	?"
14957	A neighbor leaned from her chair to say to Mrs. Crittenden,"Warm for this time of year, ai n''t it?"
14957	About marriage I mean, and all relations between men and women and between parents and children?"
14957	After this, did she close her eyes for a moment, or did it come to her while she continued to gaze wide- eyed at the stern greatness of the universe?
14957	Agnes''voice behind her asked tremblingly,"Did you call me, Miss Marise?"
14957	Agnes, did you bake any cookies this morning?"
14957	And I fairly open my mouth to ask her,''Now Miss Hetty, what shall I do next?''
14957	And another remarked, looking at Mark''s little trousers,"That material come out real good, did n''t it?
14957	And do you know what was really there?
14957	And heard the murmuring answer,"Why should the children suffer because of something they ca n''t change?"
14957	And if he did n''t have a deep interest in their curious quaint ways, what else could he give as a reason for staying on in the valley?
14957	And if we did, why break one''s heart in the vain effort to do the impossible, to get from human beings what they could not give?
14957	And now, what is it I am afraid of?
14957	And then,"But how am I ever going to know what they''re like if I do n''t analyze them?"
14957	And what answer had he got?
14957	And what had he found?
14957	And what if they did?
14957	And what on earth did I want to do with them?
14957	And what''s he doing it for?
14957	And what''s the use of having lived honestly, if you have n''t grown brave enough to do whatever needs to be done?
14957	And when you''ve gone, do n''t you find that your world everywhere is about as big as you are?"
14957	And where''d he git it, if he was?
14957	And why?
14957	And yet she heard her voice asking, urgently, peremptorily,"What was the name of the man from New Hampshire?"
14957	And yet why should I care?
14957	Anything?
14957	Are n''t you afraid to be here all alone, just you and me?
14957	Are the children all right?"
14957	Are you afraid of being fooled?
14957	Are you trying to play up to some trumpery notion of a rôle to fill?
14957	As she looked at it wondering, it came into her mind had somebody told her, or had she overheard it somewhere?
14957	Aunt Hetty shut up a drawer in a dresser, turned to Elly, and said,"Mercy, child, what''s the matter?
14957	Bayweather?"
14957	But Agnes shrank away, drew hastily closer to Marise, and whispered in a sudden panic,"Oh, do n''t it scare you?
14957	But after all, how would they dare?
14957	But after all, wood is something that people have to have, is n''t it?
14957	But apparently Eugenia had found something understandable there, for she now said sharply, startled,"Wo n''t that mean less income for you?"
14957	But do n''t you see any signs that lately maybe the same idea is striking lots of people in America?"
14957	But had he any certainty that he had put them together right?
14957	But honesty only asked her neutrally,"Is it really growth and freedom, and generous expansion of the soul?"
14957	But it was with all her faculties awakened and keen that she sat down before the piano and called out to them,"What would you like?"
14957	But this had gone, entirely, in a moment, and she was rushing on,"And, Neale, what_ do_ you think?
14957	But what did she get out of her successful shirking?
14957	But what emotion?
14957	But what is there to say?
14957	But what was mere proof against human certainty?
14957	But when they look at me, do they see any of that?
14957	But would she_ be_ Elly any more, when she was grown up?
14957	Ca n''t I get into bed with you?"
14957	Ca n''t I get into bed with you?"
14957	Ca n''t you just feel the smouldering, primitive fire hidden under that scornful silence of hers?"
14957	Ca n''t you stand any more information about early times in Vermont?
14957	Can anybody do more than try with all his might?"
14957	Could it be that, having spent the heritage of youth, she could not have it again?
14957	Could it be that?
14957	Could it have been worse if we had all just grabbed what we could get for ourselves, and had what satisfaction we could out of the baser pleasures?"
14957	Could the woodchucks be getting so close to the house as that?
14957	Could you do that, with Eugenia fashion- plating herself on the sofa?
14957	Crittenden?"
14957	Did n''t they teach you there are certain elements that just_ will_ come together, no matter how you mix them up with other things?"
14957	Did n''t you ever study chemistry?
14957	Did she understand it herself?
14957	Did their entire freedom from drudgery give them a keener sense of the beauty and delicacy of existence?
14957	Did we really live on desert islands, cut off so wholly from each other by the unplumbed, salt, estranging sea?
14957	Did you ever see anybody go off more sudden than Miss Hetty?
14957	Do I believe in myself?
14957	Do n''t you ever admit that we ought to try to make other people act the way we think best, even when we_ know_ we''re right and they''re wrong?"
14957	Do n''t you feel like playing again?"
14957	Do n''t you feel that?
14957	Do n''t you find him perfectly preposterous?"
14957	Do n''t you remember?
14957	Do n''t you suppose he would have thought they managed those things a great deal more artistically in Persia?"
14957	Do n''t you think it a pretty name?
14957	Do n''t you think that I love you?"
14957	Do n''t you_ know_ whether we hate each other, you and I?"
14957	Do n''t you_ know_ whether you really love Elly and Mark and Paul?
14957	Do they need money, the school?"
14957	Do you believe in yourself at all?"
14957	Do you find it very interesting?"
14957	Do you really know their_ names_?"
14957	Do you remember the day when a lot of us sat outdoors and ate a picnic dinner, just as we do now?
14957	Do you suppose it would be fair?"
14957	Do you think_ that_, which is only a little trickle and a harmless and natural and healthy little trickle, could unsalt the great ocean of its savor?
14957	Does n''t he like it?"
14957	Does n''t she look the image of that old daguerreotype of Grandmother?
14957	Druid?"
14957	Elly spoke in a low voice,"But, Mother, how_ can_ he be dead, just so quick while we were looking at him?
14957	Elly, what wo n''t you be up to, next?
14957	Eugenia said,"What man from New Hampshire?"
14957	Find it dull?"
14957	Florida?"
14957	Get along with you out into the mill- yard and play on the lumber- piles, why do n''t you?
14957	Had Frank and''Gene quarreled, or had''Gene crept up behind Frank as he sighted along the compass?
14957	Had a man ever before held out his strong hand to a woman to help her forward, not to hold her fast?
14957	Had anything been decided about hymns?
14957	Had n''t he the right, the duty, he who knew her better than anyone else, to protect her against herself?
14957	Had she not known?
14957	Had she seen anything which could give evidence on that?
14957	Had she thought the loss of the amusing trinket of physical newness could stand against the gain of an affection ill massy gold?
14957	Had she thought"indifference"?
14957	Had that last one moved?
14957	Had there been enough bread left in the house till someone could drive the Ford to Ashley and buy some more?
14957	Had there been in truth an element of such trashy copying of the conventional pose of revolt in what had seemed so rushingly spontaneous?
14957	Had there ever before been any man who refused to let the woman he loved weaken herself by the use of his strength?
14957	Has the teacher been scolding you?"
14957	Have n''t you seen him yet?
14957	Have you a clean handkerchief?
14957	He asked helplessly,"Well, why_ are_ you marrying me?"
14957	He asked her gravely,"Do n''t you love me?
14957	He began,"But, dear, why do you care so much about it?
14957	He had been listening with an appreciative grin to her nimble- witted chatter, but at this he brought her up short by an astonished,"Who had?
14957	He said with a whimsical suspicion of this,"Why so?"
14957	He stopped short and asked,"What you got on your head, Mark?"
14957	He waited a moment, during which time Mark announced that he was going out to the sand- pile, and then said, in a pleasant tone,"What can I do?"
14957	He was startled by this, and asked quickly with a change of tone,"Whatever made you think of that?
14957	He went back and said again,"Mr. Bayweather said your idea of business is service, like a doctor''s?"
14957	He went on,"He sort of taints an honest idea, does n''t he, by his high- falutin''way of going on about it?"
14957	He''d asked himself, if that''s so,_ then_ what?
14957	He''s going to do harm, in all probability, mix up a situation already complicated beyond solution, and why is he?
14957	Her husband making no comment on this, she went on,"Neale, do n''t you think that people are saying horrid, distressing things nowadays?
14957	How about it?"
14957	How can I live when I am no longer strong enough to protect him?"
14957	How could any woman say"I find I am too old"with that unregretting accent?
14957	How could she not have seen that his presence left her wholly unmoved, indifferent now?
14957	How could she think of anything else till that had been answered?
14957	How could they feel as cold as that, without being wet, as though they were magicked?
14957	How did people go on living?
14957	How did she ever happen to marry''Gene, anyhow?"
14957	How did they take it?
14957	How do I know that I''m not being fooled by Nature and fooling you with fine words?"
14957	How do you know what you have to deal with if you wo n''t look to see?
14957	How had she ever lived before, under the shadow of that coward fear?
14957	How near had he been to them in the black night while they talked of his wife''s mismated beauty?
14957	How old could she be?
14957	How would it be?
14957	How would they get Cousin Hetty''s friends from the station at Ashley, out to the house, such feeble old people as they were?
14957	How would they look?
14957	How would they speak, and how could they listen to anything but their own thoughts?
14957	How''d you happen to be so early?
14957	However does it happen that the best- looking women are always caught by that sort of chimpanzees?
14957	I was going to say, just for the sake of saying something,''Laying your plans for next deer- week?''
14957	I wonder if I could grow one like it?
14957	If I go and live there and just am one more person who respects them when they deserve it, it''ll help_ that_ much, maybe, do n''t you think?"
14957	If all is not right between us, what would it avail them to be with us?
14957	If she had no special favorites, I think that''Lead, Kindly Light, Amid th''Encircling Gloom''is always suitable, do n''t you?"
14957	If that was all that was left, was not that enough?
14957	Impatiently she proposed to herself,"But while I''m trying to figure it out, would n''t I better just go ahead and have beefsteak today?"
14957	In a world so filled with awful and portentous and glorious human possibilities, how could you bother about such things?
14957	In fact, it was on that very expedition that you got formally engaged, do n''t you remember?
14957	Intent on what?
14957	Is it going to work out all right?"
14957	Is it, Mother, fair to have Elly keep us from singing one of the nicest songs we have, just because she''s so foolish?"
14957	Is n''t it all in the way you look at it?"
14957	Is n''t our love deep enough to absorb that a million times over, like the water of a little brook flowing into the sea?
14957	Is n''t that a dumb sort of application to business of the doctor''s standard of service?
14957	Is n''t that good news?"
14957	Is n''t that the only reason you''re marrying me?"
14957	Is n''t there_ any_where you''d stop out of sheer respect?
14957	Is that the best thing for them?"
14957	Is there the slightest justification for it?
14957	Is this the way you use it?"
14957	It does not seem too much to ask, when we are willing to give up everything else for it, even happiness?"
14957	Marise said, after a pause,"Do you know what she goes off for?"
14957	Marise wondered if someone with second- sight could have seen Frank Warner, there between the husband and wife?
14957	Marise, have you explained who Eugenia is?"
14957	Marsh?"
14957	Mother, ca n''t we begin now?
14957	Mother, if I practise_ good_, wo n''t you come afterwards and look at them?"
14957	Mother, what in the world_ is_ the Doctrine of the Trinity?
14957	Mother, will_ you_ die like that?
14957	Mother,_ is n''t_ Mark too little?
14957	Neale nothing to her?
14957	Neale, what do you suppose has been in his mind all this time we''ve been thinking him so happy and contented here?"
14957	Neale,"she turned to him with a sudden idea,"do you remember how Victor Hugo''s''Waterloo''begins?"
14957	Never for a moment from the time they are born, to be free from the thought,"Where are they?
14957	No matter, no matter, this was life or death; what was a lie when life and death hung in the balance?
14957	Not at all?"
14957	Notions again?"
14957	Notions again?"
14957	Of all the million, million love- affairs that have happened, does anybody ever claim any one to have been happy?"
14957	Of whom had she been thinking?
14957	Oh, Miss Marise, do n''t you see anything standing in that corner?
14957	Oh, from what did it come, this rest from that sore bitterness?
14957	Oh, what did that bring to mind?
14957	On the train?"
14957	Or does he only seem to do that, because I have grown so morbidly conscious of their existence as the only thing vital in life?
14957	Or had he dreamed it?
14957	Or on another day,"I wonder if it''s a twist of the absurd mediaeval ascetic perversity left over?"
14957	Ought even a little child to respect anything or anybody merely because of a position of authority and not because of intrinsic worth?
14957	Ought she to wear mourning for Cousin Hetty?
14957	Paul stirred and asked,"Mother, where_ is_ Mark?
14957	Perhaps?"
14957	Powers on?
14957	Powers went on,"If''twouldn''t bother you, could you put them in your jar now, and let me take the pan back with me?
14957	Powers, are n''t you going to dance with me, too?"
14957	Powers, could you do something for me?
14957	Powers?
14957	See here, Mark, who said you could trail that sword out here?
14957	Seems''sthough he ca n''t do enough for Nelly, do n''t it?"
14957	She added with a greater accent of wonder,"How in the world are_ you_ going to get through the winter?"
14957	She asked him in a low voice,"Could n''t you do more for me than for yourself?
14957	She asked him,"Did you ever think that old carven- image had that in her?
14957	She called across to Frank Warner, standing very straight with Nelly Powers''hand on his arm,"Frank, you call off, wun''t ye?"
14957	She clasped her hands together and said,"Ca n''t you do_ any_thing?"
14957	She drew a long breath, brushed all this away with an effort, asking herself defiantly,"Oh, what has all this to do with_ us_?"
14957	She drew a long troubled breath and said,"You_ do_ think we can always have between us that loyalty to what is deep and living?
14957	She flashed out indignantly at him,"How can you help taking it personally when it shakes the very foundations of our life?"
14957	She heard him ask his mother,"Frank Warner been here?"
14957	She looked away and remarked,"I suppose you will inherit the furniture of this house?
14957	She made an effort to speak quietly, and heard herself say,"Do you happen to remember if Mr. Crittenden was alone as he drove away?"
14957	She pinned the bandage in place at the back of Mark''s head,"Or, dear Madam, have you settled To live single all your life?"
14957	She protested sharply,"But if their father wo n''t work steadily, when there is always work to be had?"
14957	She said to the little boys mischievously,"What did Mother say?
14957	She said urgently, as if in alarm,"Neale, you do n''t believe that we could have passed all our lives and never have_ seen_ each other?"
14957	She says to him,''For the Lord''s sake,''Gene, what_ ails_ you?''
14957	She turned to him now, again, and said,"Is this your very first call in Ashley?
14957	She went on with a heavy, mock solemnity, in the loud voice,"Oh, hark, I hear the church- bells ringing; Will you come and be my wife?"
14957	She''d like to know what more he wanted?
14957	Still drowned in sleep, Marise cried out,"What?
14957	Suppose I''d never come to Rome at all?
14957	Suppose all the time there had been a way out besides beating the retreat to the women, the children, and the gardens?
14957	Suppose all you seemed to be accomplishing was to be able to hand over to the sons of the directors more money than was good for them?
14957	Suppose that were to happen to Mark, or Paul?
14957	Suppose you saw Aunt Hetty just about to take poison, or Frank Warner getting Nelly Powers to run away with him?"
14957	Suppose you saw a little child about to take hold of the red- hot end of a poker?"
14957	The old man looked at him very hard and asked,"Mr. Crittenden, do you know anything about the treatment of the Negroes in the South?"
14957	Then in a gust of deep anger, instantly come, instantly gone,"Why do I tolerate this for a moment?
14957	Then she asked him,"Neale, how do_ you_ manage about all this?
14957	Then she remembered,"Is Mr. Crittenden here?"
14957	Then,"Neale, where shall I get the strength to do that?"
14957	To herself she thought, as her face was close to the child''s,"I wonder if I look to my little girl as Cousin Hetty used to look to me?"
14957	Touclà © was saying,"Have you got one of your headaches?
14957	Touclà ©?"
14957	Touclà ©?"
14957	Twenty years ago, would anybody have thought of doing anything but uneasily admiring a grocer who made all the money he could out of his business?
14957	Very deep down, at the edge of consciousness, something asked her,"Why did you try to hide that photograph?"
14957	Vincent asked her casually,"What''s the idea of making a family party of it and bringing the children too?"
14957	Vincent now asked irrelevantly,"Do you go to church yourself?"
14957	Was he in old Versailles or Vermont?
14957	Was her attitude towards her beloved music a lazy, self- indulgent one, to keep it to herself and the valley here?
14957	Was it complacent to say that?
14957	Was it deep in eternal values?
14957	Was it made up of a constant recurrence of sensitive aliveness to what is most worth responding to?
14957	Was it not the worst of calamities for all women to grow old?
14957	Was it she who had leaned out from the window and felt herself despised by the height and vastness of the stars?
14957	Was it still daylight?
14957	Was it true that Elly cared nothing about her, that children did n''t, for grown- ups, that she was nothing in Elly''s life?
14957	Was it worth while to do it at all?
14957	Was n''t he deceiving himself by fantastic notions?
14957	Was n''t he fooling himself with words, with priggish phrases?
14957	Was she at all more fit than anyone else to try to give Elly the unknowable answer to that dark question?
14957	Was she awake or sleeping?
14957	Was she too old for passion?
14957	Was that growing indifference of hers to dress and trips to the city, and seeing Eugenia''s smart crowd there, a sign of mental dry- rot?
14957	Was that what had come of the great hour on Rocca di Papa?
14957	Was their sense of beauty deeper and more living because of it?
14957	Was there any deep spiritual reality which counted at all, which one human being could give to another?
14957	Was there anything so pretty, anyhow, as a fine- leather shoe with a nice pointed toe, and a pretty, curved- in heel?
14957	Was this only habit, routine, dulled lack of divining imagination of what another life could be?
14957	Was this the comfortable you meant?
14957	Well, for goodness''sake, where was she?
14957	Well, had he buried it and forced himself to think no more about it?
14957	Well, what could the matter be,_ now_?
14957	Well, what_ was_ deepest and most living in her?
14957	Welles?"

14957	What do I have a guard rail there for, anyhow?"
14957	What do you feel about all the capacity for being low and bad, that everybody has?

14957	What had it made of them?
14957	What had it meant, that refrain?
14957	What had made it seem so queer, all of a sudden?
14957	What had she left behind?
14957	What had?
14957	What if she were?
14957	What if you are, when it''s life as we feel it now, such a flood of it, every instant brimming with it?

14957	What made it fall?"
14957	What made it fall?"

14957	What now?

14957	What ought I to do?
14957	What possible escape was there from the tragic net he had wrapped stranglingly around himself?

14957	What''s that?"
14957	What''s the matter, dear?
14957	What''s the matter?
14957	What''s the use of going miles out of your way, I say, out of the station to which it has pleased God to place us?
14957	What''s the use of pretending that it could n''t to you, as to anybody else?
14957	What''s the use?"
14957	What_ do_ I want?
14957	What_ made_ it fall?
14957	Where before had he endured this eternity of waiting?
14957	Where did Cousin Hetty keep her towels?

14957	Where does he think he''s living?
14957	Where had she come to, without thinking a single thing about it?
14957	Where now was that high tide?
14957	Where was real life for her?
14957	Where was that lucent sunset air?
14957	Where were the real depths, where the real food for the whole woman she had grown to be?
14957	Where were they going?
14957	Where would it lead them?
14957	Where would it lead them?
14957	Where, after all, were those traditional, troubling, insoluble intricacies of human relationships which had been tormenting her and darkening her sky?
14957	Whether I knew the way across the dark plain?
14957	Which ones had the most raisins?
14957	Who are you making fun of to yourself?
14957	Who can help being miserable at the spectacle of such rich possibilities as human life is full of, mismanaged and spoiled and lost?"
14957	Who could have made the faintest guess at that?
14957	Who else could do any better?
14957	Who ever has?
14957	Who first got off that lovely speech about the refining influence of church?"
14957	Who knows if there is anything else?"
14957	Who was she to blame Vincent for his blindness?
14957	Who was this moping in the dark like a boy?
14957	Why did not Eugenia go away?
14957	Why did she bother?
14957	Why did she walk so carefully, she wondered?
14957	Why do it?
14957	Why do n''t I do the honest thing by her and say to her that all that is poppy- cock?"
14957	Why do n''t I simply send him about his business, as I would any other bold meddler?"
14957	Why do n''t you just give up for a while?
14957	Why do you ask?"
14957	Why had n''t he thought of it in time?
14957	Why had n''t she thought of that before?
14957	Why had she come?
14957	Why had she not thought of that the instant Eugenia had begun to speak?
14957	Why had they gone away and left her alone to face this deadly peril which advanced on her step by step without mercy, time after time?
14957	Why in the world should n''t she love a fine, ardent,_ living_ man, better than that knotty, dead branch of a husband?
14957	Why not enjoy the ineffable sweetness of what he could have?
14957	Why not let it ebb entirely?
14957	Why not?"
14957	Why should he do that?
14957	Why should he?
14957	Why should n''t you?"
14957	Why should she have this unmistakable prescience of something stale and tainting which she had never felt?
14957	Why should she not have said that?
14957	Why should she only see it in this quiet, silent, neutral moment?
14957	Why was it not a natural thought to have had?
14957	Why was it she was always so_ much_ hungrier just as she got out of school, than ever at meal- times?
14957	Why was there so often a note of anger in his voice?
14957	Why would n''t Neale do it for her?
14957	Why would n''t he put out that strength of his and crush out this strange agitation of hers,_ forbid_ it to her?
14957	Why, when everything seems all right, pry into the deep and hidden roots of things?
14957	Why_ did_ she get so frightened each time?
14957	Will you believe me when I say I know all about Ashley?"
14957	Will you have your spinach now, or later?
14957	Will you take me for your lover?
14957	With a determination as firm as his own, she made her face and eyes opaque, and said on a resolutely gay note,"What''s the matter?
14957	Wo n''t you and Mr. Marsh come and join us?"
14957	Wo n''t you have a cigarette, yourself?"
14957	Wo n''t you, now we''re close to it, put the final touch to our delightful lunch- party by letting us hear it?"
14957	Would Vincent come back at all?
14957	Would it be enough for her?
14957	Would it be enough?
14957	Would n''t you better sit down and rest a moment more?"
14957	Would you mind waiting here for perhaps half an hour till I could get to the mill and back?
14957	You do n''t suppose for a moment I''ve any idea what I''ve done to deserve mine?"
14957	You remember, do n''t you, how the Powers lost the title to their big woodlot?
14957	_ Are n''t_ there things in life so high and delicate that they ca n''t stand questioning?"
14957	_ Dare_ you promise me we will not lose our way?"
14957	_ How_ can she tell?
14957	_ Was_ there anything he could do for her?
14957	_ What did you do?_"She could see that he was surprised by her fierce impatience, and for an instant taken aback by the roughness of the interruption.
14957	_ What had she been thinking about, that other little girl who had been Mother?_"Why".
14957	_ thought_ him?
14957	_ what had that staff been?_ At the thought, the master- words came to her mind again; and all fell quiet and in a great hush waited on her advance.
14957	and"satiety"?
14957	as researches into which provinces of France used half- timber houses, and how late?"
14957	but I do n''t see how we ever could have met, do you, dear?"
14957	chicken and butter and honey and fruit and coffee, all good but so profuse and jumbled that they make you turn away?"
14957	did n''t he know Paul was in the seventh grade?
14957	everybody''s so weak and horrid in this world, who knows what may be before us?
14957	for what?
14957	give her the love she wanted from them, in answer to her gift of her life to them?
14957	he asked himself with a passing astonishment,"or is he trying to put something over on me?"
14957	he said proudly to Mrs. Crittenden,"how''s that for fine?"
14957	he suggested, mildly;"whether they''re stupid or have said things or not?
14957	how can I say it?"
14957	how should I know?
14957	motherhood for instance, and marriage?"
14957	nothing?"
14957	now how could Marise meet this little problem in family equity, he wondered?
14957	of course you''ve heard of that?"
14957	oh,_ what for?_ She was a little scared.
14957	or was that a shadow?
14957	she asked him painfully;"even where we are to_ try_ to go?"
14957	she asked,"even if you had gone straight back from Genoa to Ashley?
14957	then, Neale, you do n''t believe any of that sort of talk?
14957	thought Marise, and"What was that expression on her face I could not name?"
14957	was it a flicker?
14957	was it only yesterday morning?
14957	was there ever such a friend as that rough old German who had died so long before she was born?
14957	what did they mean?
14957	what else is love for, but to give greater strength than we have?"
14957	what was all her money for?
14957	what was it she had felt?
14957	what was it?
14957	what was the thing to do for Mark?
14957	what?
14957	what_ had_ she said to fix it?
14957	what_ was_ that sort of smell that made you know the sugaring- off had begun?
14957	which lace?
14957	who knows but that we are being fooled again when we try for the higher planes of life?
14957	why in the world was she here?
14957	why not?
14957	why should not a woman grow up to other valuations of things as well as her comrade in life?
14957	why, Marise dear, what are you talking about?
14957	yet why should it give off the betraying clink of something flawed and cracked?
