21731 | Will you take me to your mother''s house, lad? |
21731 | Wot d''ye mean, youngster, by goin''on in that there fashion all the mornin'', a- botherin''everybody, and makin''a fool o''yourself like that? 21731 Yes; what is the glass?" |
21731 | You see, Bob Ledbury,said he, beginning to fill his pipe,"young fellers like you do n''t know nothin''about the weather--''cause why? |
21731 | ` Then why did you ask?'' 21731 Bob, wot''s the matter? |
21731 | But what have you been a- thinkin''of, Tom?" |
21731 | But, dear me, you are very warm; will you take a cup of tea to cool you?" |
21731 | Has war been and broke out with the French?" |
21731 | I say, what sort o''brute was that, that had hold of him? |
21731 | I''m not very learned on this matter, and ca n''t explain myself very well; but what think you, lads, shall we give the whales a rest on Sundays?" |
21731 | Is n''t that true, Tom?" |
21731 | That was a good fish we got last, sir, was n''t it?" |
21731 | To which I reply,"Tom, can it all be true?" |
21731 | What does he kill him for?" |
21731 | You heer''d the captain say he''d go an''take a squint at the glass?" |
21731 | You''re a sharp fellow, and have been in these seas before, what say you?" |
21731 | and without any warning?" |
21731 | ran out frequently from the mast- head, and the answering cry from the captain,"Where away?" |
21731 | wot have ye got there that makes ye look as wise as an owl? |
21731 | wot''s wrong now?" |
23260 | And what sort of man is the captain? |
23260 | Are you going to sea, youngster? |
23260 | Are you much hurt, Jack? |
23260 | But you will let my young friend, Jack Kemp, and your other apprentice, Medley, go with me? |
23260 | Can you be brother Bill? |
23260 | Can you tell me, sir, the names of the English vessels the pirates are supposed to have plundered? |
23260 | Could not you send for them? |
23260 | Do you think so? |
23260 | How could you hear that? |
23260 | The` Lady Alice''are you speaking of? |
23260 | Then what will your wife and daughter do? |
23260 | Were the people on board ill- treated? 23260 What am I to do without my barber and clerk and storekeeper, I should like to know?" |
23260 | What business have we to interfere with the quarrels of foreigners? |
23260 | What can he have seen to alarm him? |
23260 | What can the old man be about? |
23260 | What do you think of those black clouds out there? |
23260 | What if on board that schooner there were others than her crew-- prisoners taken from any vessel they might have pillaged? 23260 What is it you want here, my men?" |
23260 | What is that? 23260 Who are you that''s afther spakin''to me in that way? |
23260 | Who has gone? |
23260 | Who says that? |
23260 | Will they remain on board, or take a passage home in the first full ship they fall in with? |
23260 | Wo n''t you give it up and come on shore with us? |
23260 | And you!--are you brother Jack? |
23260 | Are my wife and daughter well?" |
23260 | Can it come from a ship?" |
23260 | Can you tell me where she is? |
23260 | Did the ruffians take any of them away, or did they merely carry off such valuables and stores and provisions as they could lay hands on?" |
23260 | Directly afterwards the watch on the quarterdeck came hurrying forward with the third mate, who sang out, in a tone of alarm,"Where is that boy?" |
23260 | In what direction could they have been driven? |
23260 | It must ere long come up again-- but could we hold on till then? |
23260 | Should we go back to the Galapagos, look into their harbours, and cruise about those islands? |
23260 | The moment he said this the thought flashed across my mind,"What if she should have fallen in with the` Lady Alice''?" |
23260 | The question was in what direction we should steer? |
23260 | The stranger passing within hail, a voice inquired,"What ship is that?" |
23260 | Was it on account of some unseen danger threatening us? |
23260 | We were just about to rise from our knees when I heard Dan Hogan''s voice exclaim,"Arrah now, you young psalm singers, what new trick are you after?" |
23260 | What could have become of the"Lady Alice"?--had any accident happened to her? |
23260 | What if the pirates had, as I dreaded, attacked the` Lady Alice'', and carried off Mrs Bland and Mary?" |
23260 | What if, while we were congratulating ourselves on being safe on shore, any misfortune should happen to those in whom we were so deeply interested? |
23260 | What resistance could the five or six people left on board offer, even though they might have suspected her character before she got up to them? |
23260 | What was even now going forward on board her, who could tell? |
23260 | have n''t you brought Jack Kemp with you?" |
23260 | what for come ober her now?" |
63211 | Any difference between a bowhead and a right whale? |
63211 | Dead? |
63211 | Do n''t you know that a boat that gets fast to a whale in that ice will be smashed, sure? |
63211 | Do you want to get us all killed? |
63211 | Ever been a sailor? |
63211 | Have you noticed that pile of stones with a cross sticking in it on the harbor head? |
63211 | How do you head? |
63211 | Humph, you do n''t believe I smell whale, eh? |
63211 | No? |
63211 | Now for fine ride behind Arctic race horse-- eh? |
63211 | Oho, Gabriel,Mr. Winchester laughed contemptuously,"you think your boat can out- pull us, eh? |
63211 | See how dat spout slant up in de air? |
63211 | Sick, eh? |
63211 | Slim,he sang out,"what''s the matter with you?" |
63211 | Want to collect a little ivory? |
63211 | What can we make? |
63211 | What''s the matter with that man? |
63211 | What? |
63211 | Where away? |
63211 | Where is he? |
63211 | Where''s Slim? |
63211 | Where''s my brudder? |
63211 | Who''s that overboard? |
63211 | Why did n''t you get my rifle and shoot him? |
63211 | You do n''t know you freeze to deaf up here in winter time, no? |
63211 | You know why it do n''t shoot straight up? |
63211 | You want to give me a bad name with Captain Shorey when he takes command, do you? |
63211 | You want to make it appear I have been hard on my men, eh? 63211 You wo n''t come?" |
63211 | Your boat can beat us, eh? |
63211 | ''Where do you feel bad?'' |
63211 | As he swung himself into the shrouds to climb to the mast- head, he shouted to me,"Did n''t I tell you I could smell''em?" |
63211 | But say, will I have the law on him when we get back to Frisco? |
63211 | Ca n''t you smell it yourself?" |
63211 | Can you pull an oar?" |
63211 | Did she expectorate? |
63211 | For instance:"You wear no clothes in winter?" |
63211 | Gabriel:"And what do you think they had for dinner? |
63211 | Gabriel:"And what do you think they had for supper? |
63211 | Gabriel:"And who do you think was second greaser? |
63211 | Gabriel:"And who do you think was skipper of her? |
63211 | Had she found an opening? |
63211 | I sits down and the captain says,''Well, my boy, what''s the matter with you?'' |
63211 | Know what a lay is? |
63211 | Now how were we going to find our whale again? |
63211 | Should he allow that fortune in whales to escape him without a try for it? |
63211 | Stow us away, wo n''t you?" |
63211 | Was it possible, I wondered in an instant''s flash of surprise, that the forecastle was laid with a velvet carpet? |
63211 | What could it mean? |
63211 | What did it matter that I had passed all my humdrum days on dry land? |
63211 | Which would it be? |
63211 | Will I?" |
21202 | ''Then why did you ask?'' 21202 All the money gone, Mother?" |
21202 | And have ye really seen the whales, my boy? |
21202 | And how big is it? |
21202 | And what''s the meaning of barometer? |
21202 | And who will look after my mother when I''m away? |
21202 | Aye, who wos it that throw''d that fire overboard? |
21202 | Bob Ledbury,said he,"have you got your cutting- in gear in order? |
21202 | But how do they shine like that, sir? |
21202 | But, I say, how much is that? |
21202 | Can_ wot_ be true? |
21202 | Do n''t you know? |
21202 | Do n''t you? |
21202 | Do you think we''ve any chance, Tom? |
21202 | Hold on, lads, did anyone hear a cry? |
21202 | How big? 21202 How much is billions, mate?" |
21202 | How was that, sir? |
21202 | I say, Bill Blunt, I think this consarns_ you_,cried Tom:"is n''t your sweetheart''s name Susan Croft?" |
21202 | Read''em out, then, ca n''t ye? |
21202 | Right off the lee- bow-- there, do n''t you see it? |
21202 | Robert, how big is a whale? |
21202 | Seen them? 21202 That''s a fact,"said Bill, looking up from his paper,"and who has got a word to say agin the prettiest lass in all Liverpool?" |
21202 | Tom,said I,"what like is a whale?" |
21202 | Well, what is it? |
21202 | What does he mean by that, Tom? |
21202 | What does she look like? |
21202 | What is it, Tom? |
21202 | What''s a microscope? |
21202 | What''s that floating on the water? |
21202 | What''s that to you? |
21202 | What''s that you say about the Emperor, Bill? |
21202 | Where away? |
21202 | Where away? |
21202 | Where away? |
21202 | Where away? |
21202 | Where is it, Tom? 21202 Will you take me to your mother''s house, lad?" |
21202 | Wot d''ye mean, youngster, by goin''on in that there fashion all the mornin'', a- botherin''everybody, and makin''a fool o''yourself like that? 21202 Yes; what is the glass?" |
21202 | You see, Bob Ledbury,said he, beginning to fill his pipe,"young fellers like you do n''t know nothin''about the weather--''cause why? |
21202 | Bob, wot''s the matter?" |
21202 | But what have you been a- thinkin''of, Tom?" |
21202 | But, dear me, you are very warm; will you take a cup of tea to cool you?" |
21202 | Has war been and broke out with the French?" |
21202 | I say, what sort o''brute was that that had hold of him? |
21202 | Is n''t that true, Tom?" |
21202 | That was a good fish we got last, sir, was n''t it?" |
21202 | To which I reply,"Tom, can it all be true?" |
21202 | What does he kill him for?" |
21202 | You heer''d the captain say he''d go an''take a squint at the glass?" |
21202 | You''re a sharp fellow, and have been in these seas before; what say you?" |
21202 | and without any warning?" |
21202 | wot have ye got there that makes ye look as wise as an owl? |
21202 | wot''s wrong now?" |
1356 | ''Sides,persisted Goliath,"wa''yew gwine do wiv''him? |
1356 | But what about the wages? |
1356 | But why do n''t we harpoon him? |
1356 | D''yew think, sir,said Nat,"THET''S proper grub for men?" |
1356 | Do the big whales give much more trouble than the little ones? |
1356 | Hold him up, Louey, bold him up, cain''t ye? |
1356 | Lookin''fer a ship, stranger? |
1356 | S''pose no got more? |
1356 | See anythin'', Louey? |
1356 | Then,said the colonel,"how is it you find yourself fighting for these accursed Yankees?" |
1356 | Well, Cap''n George,said one of the men,"you shorely do n''t think we k''n eat shells, do yer?" |
1356 | Where away-- where? |
1356 | Wot for? |
1356 | Yes; do you want a hand? |
1356 | You my flem? |
1356 | ''Cawse ef you bin hangin''on to dat ar wale ev''sence you boat smash, w''y de debbil you hain''t all ter bits, hey?" |
1356 | And the allied forces aft-- what of them? |
1356 | As soon as he saw me, he said,"Can you steer?" |
1356 | At last he blurted out,"Whar you bin all de time, ennyhaow? |
1356 | Beneath that mass every thought, every feeling, fled but one--"How long shall I be able to hold my breath?" |
1356 | But grumbling was dangerous, so I gulped down the dirty mixture mis- named coffee, ate a few fragments of biscuit, and filled up(?) |
1356 | But what of that? |
1356 | Going up to him, I looked at the coin, and said,"Belitani money?" |
1356 | Guess thet''s so, ai n''t it, Johnny?" |
1356 | He came out of the cabin at once, saying,"Well, boys, what''s the matter?" |
1356 | He is not at all particular as to his diet; but what sea- fish is? |
1356 | He looked at me pityingly for a moment before he replied,"You go chapella Belitani? |
1356 | He stared at me for a minute, and then, with an indescribable intonation, said,"How de ol''Satan yew fink yew gwain ter get''m, hey? |
1356 | How could we know any better? |
1356 | Look out, indeed? |
1356 | Meanwhile, what of the daring Irishman and his old barrel of a ship? |
1356 | NOW what''s the matter, I thought, when to my amazement the chief addressing me said,"Wonder why we''ve hauled up, do n''t ye?" |
1356 | No go Davy Jonesy dis time, hay?" |
1356 | No put bes''close on top?" |
1356 | Now, one thought was uppermost--"What if he should breach?" |
1356 | Perhaps his presence had something to do with it? |
1356 | Perhaps it is not so different in other professions nearer home? |
1356 | Rapacious the shark certainly is; but what sea- fish is not? |
1356 | Reads funny, does n''t it? |
1356 | See?" |
1356 | Shall I be laughed at when I confess that our musical efforts were confined to Sankey''s hymns? |
1356 | So the port watch, in their best(?) |
1356 | The skipper looked, saying, inquiringly,"Well?" |
1356 | Then one man turned his back on the carver, who holding up each portion, called out,"Who''s this for?" |
1356 | They both hated these weapons, nor ever used them if they could help it; but what was to be done? |
1356 | To us, though, they bore no terrific aspect; for were they not the turning- point from which we could steer north, our head pointed for home? |
1356 | True, they are lazy; but what inducement have they to work? |
1356 | Turning his happy face to me, he shouted exultingly,"How''s dat fer high?" |
1356 | Up from below came the deep growl of the skipper,"Foremast head, there, what d''ye say?" |
1356 | Was n''t Mr. Count mad? |
1356 | What need to say more? |
1356 | Whatever could it be? |
1356 | Why, you old sinner, you do n''t mean to say you''re goin''to growl about havin''chicken for dinner?" |
1356 | Would he never be quiet? |
1356 | Yet, but for them, how would such great creatures as the sperm whale be fed? |
1356 | You savvy duff?" |
1356 | and to me,"Haul that main sheet, naow haul, why do n''t ye?" |
1356 | says somebody, within a few miles of Hong Kong? |
21711 | ''Ow did you lose the fish, sir? |
21711 | ''Ow''orribly''eavy it is, hain''t it? |
21711 | Ah, then, is it yerself, darlint? |
21711 | Ah, then, ye do n''t onderstand me? 21711 Ai n''t it glorious?" |
21711 | An''do n''t ye think it''s worth makin''enquiries about_ me_? |
21711 | And do n''t they_ never_ melt? |
21711 | And what am I to do, Captain? |
21711 | Are you quite sure, Frederick? |
21711 | Arrah, then,_ do n''t_ ye onderstand me? |
21711 | Ba- a- ck ye- e- r to- o- psails, will ye? |
21711 | Bad luck to ye,cried O''Riley,"wo n''t ye spaake?" |
21711 | But how can this be put right, Tom? |
21711 | Ca n''t ye lead us a better road? |
21711 | Can you make her out, Mr Bolton? |
21711 | Did ye see yon? |
21711 | Do n''t you? |
21711 | Do you hope to effect much? |
21711 | Do you know I feel quite sad at quitting this dreary spot? |
21711 | Does he? |
21711 | Good- day, old chap,said the last who made his exit;"tiller''s fixed agin-- nailed amidships? |
21711 | Hallo, West, are you hurt? |
21711 | Have n''t I bin workin''like a naagur for two hours to git out of that hole, and ai n''t I playin''a tune on me pipe now? 21711 Have ye, Capting? |
21711 | Have you seen Dumps or Poker anywhere? |
21711 | Heavy? |
21711 | How many is there, an''ye plaze? |
21711 | How so? 21711 How was that, Jack?" |
21711 | How''s her head, Mr Bolton? |
21711 | How''s her head? |
21711 | I say, Fred, before we go on deck, will you promise to do what I ask you? |
21711 | Ig-- what? |
21711 | Is it to sail on the ice ye''re goin'', boy? |
21711 | Is that not another tomb? |
21711 | Is there any danger, Buzzby? |
21711 | Is there much? |
21711 | Is''t away? |
21711 | Let it go, poor thing? |
21711 | Look here, Mivins,said O''Riley, as the captain went below,"can ye point out the mornin''star to me, lad?" |
21711 | May they not have got some of the stores of the brig we saw nipped some months ago? |
21711 | Mayhap there''s some o''them asleep inside,suggested Tom Green, the carpenter''s mate;"suppose we go in and see?" |
21711 | Och, where''s the ball? 21711 Oh, but it''s good, is n''t it?" |
21711 | Oh, you''re there? 21711 Please, sir, may I remain?" |
21711 | Sky- larking, are you? |
21711 | The morning star? |
21711 | Then why did he not say what he meant? 21711 Tom,"said Fred, after another long silence,"has not the thought occurred to you that God made it all?" |
21711 | Tom,said Fred, breaking another long silence,"you''re very tiresome and stupid tonight; why do n''t you talk to me?" |
21711 | Very good, and who else, think''ee? 21711 Waes me,"cried the big Scotch mate, as he ran up and down the quarter- deck wringing his hands,"what_ is_ to be done noo?" |
21711 | Well, what''s to be done? 21711 What a jolly style of travelling, is n''t it?" |
21711 | What are they? |
21711 | What can yonder mound be? |
21711 | What do you mean, you young rascal? |
21711 | What do you think of her, Buzzby? |
21711 | What have you got there? |
21711 | What if it should be my father''s brig? |
21711 | What is a water- sky, Captain? |
21711 | What is''t all about? |
21711 | What line was that, Buzzby? |
21711 | What mane ye by that, ye blubber- bag? |
21711 | What mean you, girl? 21711 What means all this mystery?" |
21711 | What of your theatricals, Fred? 21711 What think you, Saunders?" |
21711 | What think''ee, Meetuck? |
21711 | What''ll ye bet it was Dumps as did it? |
21711 | What''ll you do, Tom, you''ve no gun? |
21711 | What''s that ahead of us? |
21711 | What''s to be done noo? |
21711 | What''s wrong with O''Riley? |
21711 | What''s wrong, boy? 21711 When shall we sink the canisters, sir?" |
21711 | Where away? |
21711 | Where have you seen such poor wretches, Tom? |
21711 | Where is my husband?--my boy? |
21711 | Where''s my hatchet? |
21711 | Whereabouts is he? |
21711 | Who can accompany you? |
21711 | Why do n''t I, is it? 21711 Why do n''t you answer?" |
21711 | Why do n''t you kick with your right leg, then, stupid, like other people? |
21711 | Why so? |
21711 | Why, ma''am, in coorse I do,replied Buzzby vehemently;"for why? |
21711 | Why, what are you at there, Meetuck? |
21711 | Why, what put_ them_ into your head? |
21711 | Wot a jolly game football is, ai n''t it? |
21711 | Wot is it? |
21711 | Wots come o''Dumps and Poker? |
21711 | ''Tis very cold,"( Grim shuddered here tremendously)"and-- and-- what''s next?" |
21711 | Any fun going?" |
21711 | But can you tell me, Mr Saunders,''ow it is that them''ere hicebergs is made? |
21711 | But when a thought about them strikes you, will you always_ think it out_, and, if possible,_ act it out_, as God shall enable you?" |
21711 | But where were Fred Ellice and Tom Singleton all this time? |
21711 | But why do you run down my father''s ship? |
21711 | But you are talking nonsense, boy; do you think that I will believe a man means to say a thing is good when he calls it cracked? |
21711 | Come off, will ye, and take yer turn at the right time, wo n''t ye?" |
21711 | Come, West, lind a hand to fix the dogs, will ye?" |
21711 | Did I sleep many hours?" |
21711 | Did you ever see such a miserable set of creatures as the old Esquimaux women are, at Uppernavik?" |
21711 | Do n''t you think it would be worth while communicating your views on the subject to one of the scientific bodies when we get home again? |
21711 | Do n''t you think so?" |
21711 | Do you see the high cliffs yonder away to the nor''-east? |
21711 | Do you think I''m going to stand that? |
21711 | Does it not seem like a dream, Fred?" |
21711 | Fred fired instantly, and the bear stopped, and looked round, as much as to say:"Did you speak, gentlemen?" |
21711 | Fred, Fred, can you not tell us in which direction we ought to go to search for them?" |
21711 | Have not these women feelings like other women? |
21711 | Have you ever been in these seas before, Buzzby?" |
21711 | How came you to know this?" |
21711 | How say you, Meetuck, shall we take to it again when we get through this place?" |
21711 | I can make nothing of this knot; try what you can do with it, messmate, will you?" |
21711 | I misremember exactly who fired it; wos it you, Meetuck?" |
21711 | I see; is the hut finished? |
21711 | If I kill the two bears you speak of, will you marry me?" |
21711 | Is it not_ very_ strange that the idea of the Creator is so seldom, and so slightly, connected with his works in our minds?" |
21711 | Is n''t it quare?" |
21711 | Is the soup in the coppers, David Mizzle?" |
21711 | Now I, on the contrary, am always--""Inclined to talk too much, and think too little; eh, Fred?" |
21711 | Now, I never saw such a miserable old woman as that before; did you?" |
21711 | Now, is n''t it, West? |
21711 | Now, lads, will you agree to that?" |
21711 | Poker sprang forward, wagging the stump of his tail, and turned his head to one side, as if to say:"Well, what''s up? |
21711 | Seizing Isobel by the shoulder he gasped, rather than said:"Speak quick-- is-- is she alive?" |
21711 | That''s not the morning work, is it? |
21711 | Think you that there are not amongst them those who have` known better times?'' |
21711 | Wake up, sir, d''ye hear me?" |
21711 | We start at 10 o''clock a.m., do n''t we?" |
21711 | Well, well, now, is n''t that strange? |
21711 | Were not the goods at Store Island all right this morning, Mr Bolton?" |
21711 | What can be the cause of it?" |
21711 | What do you think of the health of the men, Doctor?" |
21711 | What time is it?" |
21711 | What was to be done? |
21711 | Where did you leave them, say you?" |
21711 | Where have ye comed from, now; tell me, dear,_ doo_ now?" |
21711 | Who d''ye think might go?" |
21711 | Why, do n''t you know that there hain''t no_ morning_ star when it''s_ night_ all round?" |
21711 | Will you take that part, Buzzby?" |
21711 | Write to me, darling Isobel, wo n''t you? |
21711 | Your first harpoon, you know, was a little wide of the mark, if I recollect right, was n''t it?" |
21711 | _ me_?" |
21711 | and I''m sure nobody would say a cracked tea- pot was as good as a whole one; but tell me, Buzzby, do you think they ever_ will_ come back?" |
21711 | and did n''t I hear one of the sailors say that she was a crack ship, a number one? |
21711 | are you ready?" |
21711 | begin to spin the whole yarn o''the voyage afore I''ve had time to say` How d''ye do?''" |
21711 | cried Buzzby, whose appearance was such that you would have hesitated to say whether his breadth or length was greater,--"heavy, d''ye say? |
21711 | did I iver expect to ride in a carriage and six?" |
21711 | do you know what time it is?" |
21711 | do you mean to say it was_ yesterday_ when we started, and that we''ve been walking all night, and got into_ to- morrow morning_ without knowing it?" |
21711 | he exclaimed in an earnest tone;"who calls me father?" |
21711 | is that a bear I sees before me?" |
21711 | is that you? |
21711 | messmates, wot''s ado now? |
21711 | no passage, I suppose?" |
21711 | what''s to be done now?" |
21711 | what''s wrong there for''ard?" |
21711 | where are the rest of you?" |
21711 | where''s Mr Saunders?" |
21711 | where?" |
21711 | ye wo n''t take it, wo n''t ye? |
21714 | A slave- dealer? |
21714 | A what, Bumble? |
21714 | A wot? |
21714 | Ai n''t it beautiful? |
21714 | Ai n''t we all pursooers? 21714 All for_ one_ fish?" |
21714 | An''are they a- crownin''of him now? |
21714 | An''so you expec''s they''re goin''to make you a king for all that? |
21714 | An''the boat? |
21714 | An''warn''t the doctors right? 21714 And all,"continued Martha,"in consequence of his resolutely and obstinately, and wilfully and wickedly going to sea?" |
21714 | And do you think he''d be so mean as to tell? |
21714 | And how much is` so''much, Ailie? |
21714 | And so, sir,said Captain Dunning,"you call this your` misfortune?''" |
21714 | And they''ve got something to say to you about going to sea-- would you like to go? |
21714 | And what, my pretty one,he said,"what should we do with the fellow in the stern? |
21714 | And when are ye to be crowned, Bumble? |
21714 | And when''s that? |
21714 | And who''s to pay for our foretopsail- yard? |
21714 | Are not all serpents poisonous? |
21714 | Are you quite sure of that? 21714 Are you quite sure of that?" |
21714 | Ay, greedy; has any o''you lads got a dickshunairy to lend him? 21714 Been to sea as a cook?" |
21714 | Blowed away? |
21714 | But are you sure your messmates are as willing as you are to witness against the captain? |
21714 | But have you not seen Rokens or Briant? |
21714 | But what''s the fire for? |
21714 | But where did ye come from, an''why are they arter ye, lad? |
21714 | But, I say, lads,interposed Jim Scroggles, seriously,"wot''ll we do if it comes on to blow a gale and blows away all our purvisions?" |
21714 | By the bye, Millons, did n''t you once fall into a whale''s skull, and get nearly drowned in oil? |
21714 | Can it be? |
21714 | Can it have been Glynn? |
21714 | Can you? 21714 Can_ you_ get un for us?" |
21714 | Come now, avic, wot''s the raisin ye wo n''t go? 21714 Could n''t we have the tipple first?" |
21714 | Could you not,she said, in a half- whisper,"cut the rope, and then paddle away back while_ they_ are paddling down the river?" |
21714 | D''ye hear? |
21714 | D''ye see it, Ailie? 21714 Dear child, what can you possibly know about law?" |
21714 | Did anybody else ever see it? |
21714 | Did n''t you, ma''am? |
21714 | Did ye ever see that word in Johnson? |
21714 | Did you ever see_ three_ kittens together? |
21714 | Did you hear that? |
21714 | Did you not tell me a few minutes ago that the water was almost done? |
21714 | Do n''t I know wot''s best for ye? 21714 Do n''t ye know that_ we_ is the purshooers,''cause why? |
21714 | Do n''t you see your drogue has broke loose? |
21714 | Do n''t you think it will be required? |
21714 | Do n''t you think our house will fall, dear papa? |
21714 | Do n''t you think, dear, Martha, that there''s some more of that word on the next line? |
21714 | Do whales go to school? |
21714 | Do you ever swear? |
21714 | Do you see that mountain? |
21714 | Do you think that we can continue to exist if our daily allowance is reduced one- fourth? |
21714 | Does God work miracles still? |
21714 | Eh? 21714 Eh?" |
21714 | Even suppose we were strong enough to punish them, what good would it do? 21714 Fat you say, sare?" |
21714 | George,said Martha, drying her eyes, and speaking in tones of deep solemnity,"did you ever read_ Robinson Crusoe_?" |
21714 | Girl,said the captain, turning suddenly towards her,"is breakfast ready?" |
21714 | Harm? 21714 Have whales got brains?" |
21714 | Have you a madman on board your ship? |
21714 | Have you really anything to say to me about that ship? |
21714 | He said that, did he? 21714 Here you are, lassies; how are ye?" |
21714 | Here''s a puzzler wot''ll beat it, though,observed Tim Rokens;"suppose we all go on talkin''stuff till doomsday, w''en''ll the boat be finished?" |
21714 | How are you so sure it was n''t that? |
21714 | How can you, brother? |
21714 | How can you? |
21714 | How deep is it, Glynn? |
21714 | How do you know? |
21714 | How far? |
21714 | How many casks did you bury? |
21714 | How much do you claim for damages, George? |
21714 | How much? |
21714 | How so, Ailie? 21714 How would you like to go with me to the whale- fishery?" |
21714 | How? 21714 I ax yer parding, sir,"said Tim Rokens, addressing Dr Hopley;"but I''m curious to know if crocodiles has got phrenoligy?" |
21714 | I s''pose I may set here till ye come back? |
21714 | I say, Dr Hopley,remarked Captain Dunning, as he gazed intently into the gloom astern,"did you not hear voices? |
21714 | I suppose you mean a suggestion, eh? |
21714 | I think we may say, what has brought_ you_ here? |
21714 | I wonder why God made them? |
21714 | I''ll be the death o''that brute yet,said Gurney, wiping the perspiration from his forehead;"but go on, Rokens; what was it you saw?" |
21714 | I''m sorry for that,replied the child;"for a fire is_ so_ nice and cheery; and it helps to keep off the wild beasts, too, does n''t it?" |
21714 | If you are Jacko''s self- appointed uncle, and Miss Ailie is his adopted mother, wot relation is Miss Ailie to you? |
21714 | In course I do n''t; how should I? |
21714 | Is any one inclined to try it? |
21714 | Is everything snug, Mr Millons? |
21714 | Is he dead? |
21714 | Is it good? |
21714 | Is it? |
21714 | Is n''t Tim Rokens very funny, papa? |
21714 | Is n''t it strange, Glynn, that there are such ugly beasts in the world? |
21714 | Is n''t what funny? |
21714 | Is she? |
21714 | Is that a bit o''the wreck? |
21714 | Is that all? |
21714 | Is that another on ahead? |
21714 | Is there nobody to look arter these matters in Christian lands? |
21714 | Is your mistress at home? |
21714 | Is_ this_ your favourite tipple? |
21714 | Is_ who_ dead? |
21714 | It was rather odd,replied Glynn;"but where did you go after that?" |
21714 | It''s meself ca n''t tell,replied Briant;"d''ye know, Tim?" |
21714 | Like what, papa? |
21714 | Looking at the fish, Ailie, as usual? |
21714 | May he? |
21714 | Me ketch''i m? |
21714 | Me tell a story? 21714 Messmates,"said Tim Rokens, who for some time had leaned with both elbows on his oar and his face buried in his hands,"wot d''ye say to a bath? |
21714 | No, never,replied the captain;"what has that got to do with it?" |
21714 | Not goin''to be king? 21714 Not ready for supper?" |
21714 | Now, what am I to do with it? 21714 Now, what''s wrong?" |
21714 | O, why did ye kill her? |
21714 | Obey orders, will you? |
21714 | Oh, Glynn, is that you? 21714 Oh, it''s_ him_ you mean, is it? |
21714 | Oh, nonsense, why not? |
21714 | Oh, thank you, Glynn; but why did you go down so quick and stay so long? 21714 Oh, that''s a pity, is n''t it, Glynn?" |
21714 | Oh, then we went on, and on again, until we came to--"It''s your turn at the wheel, lad, ai n''t it? |
21714 | Oh, then you did_ not_ see the drogue attached to the whale? |
21714 | Plaze, sir, may I shoot him? |
21714 | Say, is it? 21714 See who?" |
21714 | Shall I give the order, sir? |
21714 | Shall we ever see land again? |
21714 | Shall we go back an''pick it up, sir? |
21714 | Shall we sleep here till morning? |
21714 | So he does,said Ailie;"is n''t it funny?" |
21714 | So much? 21714 Sure? |
21714 | Tell both of''em I''m here, then,said the captain, stepping into the little parlour without further ceremony;"and is my little girl in?" |
21714 | The eggs? |
21714 | Then I suppose you have no objection to try a glass of my favourite tipple, have you? |
21714 | Then why ai n''t Bibles sent to''em at once? |
21714 | Then why do n''t they git more funds? |
21714 | Then,argued Martha,"will you, can you, George, contemplate the possibility of your only daughter coming to the same dreadful end?" |
21714 | There''s ever so many Johnsons in the world; which on''em all do you mean? |
21714 | Too bad, indeed; yes, is n''t it? |
21714 | W''y? 21714 We are certain of nothing,"replied the captain;"but even suppose we were, how are we to get hold of them?" |
21714 | Well, Ailie,said Glynn, cheerfully, as he opened the door and peeped in;"how d''ye get on, dear? |
21714 | Well, Millons, what news? |
21714 | Well, and what does skulking mean, and shirking work? |
21714 | Well, it''s so long ago since I sung that song, shipmates,replied Gurney,"that I''ve bin and forgot it; but Tim Rokens knows it; where''s Rokens?" |
21714 | Well, we came up with a big whale, and fixed an iron cleverly in him at the first throw--"An iron? |
21714 | Well,began Ailie;"but where was I?" |
21714 | Were the other men as eager for the fight as you were? |
21714 | Werry good,returned Rokens;"but wot makes ye for to expect it?" |
21714 | What are they saying to you to- night? |
21714 | What are you going to do with the wood, papa? |
21714 | What d''ye say to dig a hole and stick the things in it? |
21714 | What do they spear them for? |
21714 | What do you mean by striking that fish? |
21714 | What has detained you, eh? |
21714 | What have you got to say, then? |
21714 | What is it? |
21714 | What is that? |
21714 | What mean you by stopping me? |
21714 | What mean you, sir? |
21714 | What mischief have you been about? |
21714 | What nonsense you talk, George; but I suppose you really do use pretty large hooks and lines when you fish for whales? |
21714 | What now? 21714 What right have you to ask?" |
21714 | What''s come of Glynn? |
21714 | What''s that? |
21714 | What''s that? |
21714 | What''s the very ticket? |
21714 | What? |
21714 | What? |
21714 | What_ can_ have done it? 21714 Where away now?" |
21714 | Where away? |
21714 | Which is it, doctor dear? |
21714 | Who from? |
21714 | Who''s Johnson? |
21714 | Who''s that? |
21714 | Who''s the` pursooers?'' |
21714 | Who, then? 21714 Who? |
21714 | Why did n''t you heave- to when I ordered you,he said,"and so save all this trouble and worry?" |
21714 | Why do n''t you go away when you''re told, eh? |
21714 | Why not? |
21714 | Why not? |
21714 | Why, Glynn, what has kept you, lad? |
21714 | Why, what have you got there? |
21714 | Why, what would you do with it, Dick? |
21714 | Why, what''s the matter, man? |
21714 | Why, what''s wrong? |
21714 | Why? |
21714 | Will it do you much harm, dear, papa? |
21714 | Will no one call out murder? |
21714 | With or without capers- sauce? |
21714 | Wo n''t I? |
21714 | Wo n''t he? |
21714 | Wo n''t we leave it, dear papa,said she,"to go up yonder?" |
21714 | Wo n''t you come in and say it here? |
21714 | Wos he a big or a little feller? |
21714 | Wot can it be a- doin''of here? |
21714 | Wot can it be? |
21714 | Wot then? |
21714 | Wot was it? |
21714 | Wot''s a Solon? |
21714 | Wot''s he bin doin''? |
21714 | Wot''s that there soup made of? |
21714 | Wot, do n''t ye know who Johnson is? |
21714 | Wot? |
21714 | Would you like a little more tart? |
21714 | Would you? |
21714 | Yes, Ailie; the one in the middle, you mean, do n''t you? 21714 You ai n''t afraid, air you?" |
21714 | You are quite sure that you saw it? |
21714 | You do n''t mane to tell me, now, that_ whalers_ comes in here for slaves, do ye? |
21714 | You do n''t mean it? |
21714 | You do n''t suppose I''d go fur to tell lies, do you? |
21714 | You do n''t, do n''t you? |
21714 | You may sit there till they turn you out; but come and take breakfast with me at the same hour to- morrow, will ye? |
21714 | You no tell what I go to say? 21714 You wants a cook, I b''lieve?" |
21714 | You''ll stay a long time with me before you go away to sea again, wo n''t you, dear papa? |
21714 | You''re a cook, are you? |
21714 | You''re quite sure of that? 21714 _ Quite_ dead?" |
21714 | ` We''ve been all''--I ca n''t make this word out, can you, dear? |
21714 | ` Why do n''t you ask himself?'' 21714 ` Will ye come an''see it this night?'' |
21714 | ` Wot''s all to do?'' 21714 ` Would n''t I?'' |
21714 | A dog- kennel, eh?" |
21714 | Ai n''t it? |
21714 | All ready?" |
21714 | And did n''t I hear the convarse o''all the doctors in the place? |
21714 | And did n''t they go through adventures that would have made the hair of mortals not only stand on end, but fly out by the roots altogether? |
21714 | Anything more?" |
21714 | Are you one?" |
21714 | Are you ready, my pet? |
21714 | At last Ailie held her hand towards it and said--"Wo n''t it come to me, dear, sweet pet? |
21714 | At last he emitted several strong puffs of smoke, and said--"Young man, did you ever_ see_ your own mind?" |
21714 | Being apparently satisfied with the man''s account of himself, Captain Dunning put to him the question--"Do you drink?" |
21714 | Besides, the rascals in front might take it into their heads to paddle after us, you know, and what then?" |
21714 | Both ladies exclaimed,"What point, George?" |
21714 | Business first, and pleasure, if ye can get it, arterwards-- them''s my notions, Nip-- Nip-- Nippi-- what''s your name?" |
21714 | But tell me, Ailie, how was it that you managed to keep afloat so long? |
21714 | Can you, Jane?" |
21714 | Come, Jim Scroggles, you can tell him what it means-- you''ve been to school, I believe, hain''t you?" |
21714 | D''ye see that whale now?" |
21714 | D''ye think the bottle o''brandy stole his- self?" |
21714 | Dear me, Martha, you and Jane-- look as if you had been running a race, eh? |
21714 | Did Glynn speak to you within the last ten minutes?" |
21714 | Did I niver tell ye o''the Widdy Morgan, as had a ghost come to see her frequently?" |
21714 | Did any of ye iver study midsin?" |
21714 | Did n''t I say that I''d tell ye a story as would prove to ye that ghosts drink, more especially Irish ghosts? |
21714 | Did n''t he lamp two on''em with a rope''s- end once till they wos fit to bust, and all for nothin''but skylarkin''? |
21714 | Did n''t he make them talk, as mortals never talked before; and sing as mortals never dreamed of? |
21714 | Did n''t yer poor owld mother tell ye, Phil, that ye''d come to a bad end-- she did--""Are ye badly hurt?" |
21714 | Did you find out who the poor fellow is yet?" |
21714 | Do n''t they look so_ very_ like as if they were all painted black?" |
21714 | Do n''t you observe it''s''cause he han''t got none at all to see? |
21714 | Do n''t you think, captain, that we might have our breakfast to- night? |
21714 | Do you know which part of the whale struck your boat? |
21714 | Do you think it was the Holy Spirit who put them into my mind? |
21714 | Doctor, can you tell me now, which is the easiest of digestion-- a hard egg or a soft one?" |
21714 | Else, wherefore does the Father love it and care for it so tenderly? |
21714 | Glynn, Glynn Proctor,"roared the first mate from the deck--"where''s that fellow? |
21714 | Glynn,"exclaimed Ailie, in a whisper-- for she felt that things were beginning to look serious--"what_ are_ we to do?" |
21714 | God would not make me feel so happy if we were going to be lost, would He?" |
21714 | Have ye sich an article in these parts?" |
21714 | Have you breakfasted?" |
21714 | Have you caught any codlings, Bumble?" |
21714 | Have you had a glass this morning?" |
21714 | Have you thought?" |
21714 | He han''t got even the ghost of one, so how could ye expect anybody to see it?" |
21714 | He''ll take such famous care of me; now_ wo n''t_ you let me go, papa?" |
21714 | How came you to leave your cabin, dear? |
21714 | How d''ye know that?" |
21714 | How wos it, now, that you so mistook yer trade as to come for to go to sea?" |
21714 | I could only just make out the winder by the pale starlight that shone through it, but the moment I set my two eyes on it, wot does I see? |
21714 | I looks round in all directions, but I could n''t see nothin''--cause why? |
21714 | I was born at sea, d''ye see? |
21714 | I wonder if it was a poisonous serpent?" |
21714 | I''ve found ye, have I? |
21714 | Is floating on your back a miracle?" |
21714 | Is n''t that the usual way of serving these fellows out?" |
21714 | Is there a chorus to it?" |
21714 | It treats every one ill.""Wo n''t it treat Captain Dixon well, if he wins, aunt?" |
21714 | Jim says he never seed his own mind-- very good; and he says as how nobody else niver seed it nother; well, and wot then? |
21714 | Kit stowed and anchor tripped? |
21714 | Let me go, will ye?" |
21714 | Might it not have been the part of the fish near the tail, now, that struck you, or the fin just under the tail?" |
21714 | Not love our fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, wives? |
21714 | Now, what say you? |
21714 | Now, wot then?" |
21714 | Serves him right; do n''t it, Glynn?" |
21714 | So again I say, who cried` Shame?''" |
21714 | So it wos you stole the brandy, wos it? |
21714 | Tarquin?" |
21714 | The mate came close to the captain''s side and said,"Did you see, sir, the way them men on the mainyard were scramblin''down?" |
21714 | Then he thought,"What if I have turned just as I was coming up with her?" |
21714 | There ai n''t no ghosts, is there?'' |
21714 | W''at say you, doctor?" |
21714 | Was it grand, Glynn?" |
21714 | Was it not the_ third_ oar, now?" |
21714 | Was it the head?" |
21714 | Was n''t it funny? |
21714 | Was n''t it odd?" |
21714 | Was n''t it strange? |
21714 | Was n''t we all pursooing the whale together?" |
21714 | Was the drogue attached when the boat came up? |
21714 | Well, now, what have you to tell me about the_ Termagant_? |
21714 | Well, reader, and why not? |
21714 | Well, wan evenin''I wint to see her, an''says I,` Mrs Morgan, did ye iver hear the bit song called the Widdy Machree?'' |
21714 | Well, would ye b''lieve it, shipmates, at that same moment up starts the ghost again as bold as iver? |
21714 | Were the other men in your boat in a similarly unobservant condition?" |
21714 | What a very pretty bit of coral I see over there, close to the white rock; do you see it? |
21714 | What d''ye say, boys; shall we beat''em?" |
21714 | What do you say to go with me and Ailie on our next trip, sisters? |
21714 | What is that?" |
21714 | What more can you tell me? |
21714 | What say you?" |
21714 | What sort o''baccy d''ye smoke, Rokens?" |
21714 | What think you, Ailie, my pet, will you be able to stand it?" |
21714 | What was to be done? |
21714 | What''s that?" |
21714 | What_ is_ it, doctor?" |
21714 | Where have you been?" |
21714 | Where is he?" |
21714 | Where is it?" |
21714 | Who are you, and where bound?" |
21714 | Who are you, and where from?" |
21714 | Who has not? |
21714 | Who is it, did you say?" |
21714 | Who is? |
21714 | Who made it?" |
21714 | Why wo n''t ye, now?" |
21714 | Why, what are you making? |
21714 | Why?" |
21714 | Why?" |
21714 | Will you trust me?" |
21714 | Wot is to be done?" |
21714 | Wot more would ye have? |
21714 | Wot''s a ship without a''elm? |
21714 | Wot''s a song without a chorus? |
21714 | Wot''s plum- duff without the plums? |
21714 | Wot''s wrong wid ye, Bumble?" |
21714 | Wot-- supposin''ye had the chance-- would ye give, at this good min''it, for a biled leg o''mutton?" |
21714 | Would your lordship be so good as to note that? |
21714 | Yes or no?" |
21714 | Yes, well?" |
21714 | Yet why should I conceal from her the danger of our position? |
21714 | You know what fire- flies and glow- worms are?" |
21714 | ` Wot,''says I,` keep a garding, and plant taters, and hoe flowers an''cabidges?'' |
21714 | ` Would ye like to hear it, darlint?'' |
21714 | ` Ye ai n''t a- goin''to take spasms?'' |
21714 | ai n''t it swate?" |
21714 | am I?" |
21714 | and then followed it up with the abrupt question--"Do you drink?" |
21714 | at it yet? |
21714 | but I would like to have''em up in a row-- every black villain in the place-- an''a cutlass in my hand, an''--an''would n''t I whip off their heads? |
21714 | came down- stairs like an echo, from the region of Miss Martha Dunning''s bedroom, and was followed up by a"What is it?" |
21714 | capting,"exclaimed the wrathful Irishman, reproachfully,"sure ye would n''t spile the fun?" |
21714 | cried Ailie, laughing,"how can you?" |
21714 | cried Tarquin, looking fiercely round on his shipmates,"who cried shame? |
21714 | cried the captain, with lively interest;"and her captain?" |
21714 | do n''t he pull? |
21714 | do n''t you feel hungry?" |
21714 | doctor, have ye strength to set disjointed limbs?" |
21714 | echoed Rokens, in disgust;"why did n''t ye say, so at first? |
21714 | exclaimed Martha;"to whom do you refer?" |
21714 | exclaimed Phil Briant, all his blood rising at the mere mention of the horrible traffic;"could n''t we land, capting, and give them a lickin''? |
21714 | exclaimed Tim Rokens, withdrawing his pipe from his lips;"do you_ sell_ niggers?" |
21714 | he said,"that''s your game, is it? |
21714 | interrupted Glynn;"what''s that?" |
21714 | more wanting to go ashore?" |
21714 | morther, could n''t I burst?" |
21714 | not give our warmest affections to all these?" |
21714 | observed Rokens;"and d''ye suppose he''d give ye the right name?" |
21714 | said Aunt Jane indignantly;"but what could we expect? |
21714 | said Rokens;"d''ye mean, a ruler of this here country?" |
21714 | says I;`''av coorse ye are, bliss yer purty face; do n''t I know that ivery boy in the parish is after ye?'' |
21714 | shouted Tim Rokens;"wot boat''s that?" |
21714 | the bright, beautiful world that was made by God to be enjoyed? |
21714 | then ye married the widder, did ye?" |
21714 | what a funny bay that must be--`My dearest Sisters''--the darling fellow, he always begins that way, do n''t he, Jane dear?" |
21714 | what air they doin''wid the poor cratur now?" |
21714 | what can that be? |
21714 | what on airth--?" |
21714 | what''s wrong?" |
21714 | what, where?" |
21714 | what_ can_ that be, Jane?" |
21714 | when? |
21714 | where away, Phil?" |
21714 | where, child? |
21714 | who has been with you?" |
21714 | who''d ha''thought it? |
21714 | why, what about?" |
21714 | will ye take_ me_?'' |
21714 | willin''to go? |
21714 | wot you tink?" |
21714 | ye''ve bin to school, no doubt, have n''t ye?" |
21714 | yelled the bereaved one,"do n''t I know ye?" |
21714 | you prefer big spoons to little ones, my man, do n''t you?" |
21714 | you''re a to- teetler?" |
