9150 | A good distance, I suppose, from Lima? |
9150 | Am I heavy? |
9150 | And are you travelling through it alone? |
9150 | And at what rate have we been sailing? |
9150 | And do you say,inquired Mrs. Weldon,"that we have left it quite behind us?" |
9150 | And how does business go on? |
9150 | And how, all this time, my dear boy, has it fared with you? |
9150 | And leave us here? |
9150 | And may I ask what brings you here? |
9150 | And now,interposed Mrs. Weldon,"can you tell us where we are?" |
9150 | And upon what part of South America do you reckon we are likely to find ourselves? |
9150 | And was Uncle Toby an entomologist? |
9150 | And what brings you here, this hour of the night? |
9150 | And what do you propose to do next? |
9150 | And what is the name of that promontory? |
9150 | And what, Mr. Benedict, is your opinion of my proposal? |
9150 | And when, and how, may I ask, do you propose to manage this? |
9150 | And where are these sirafoos most generally to be found? |
9150 | And where''s Nan? |
9150 | And which of them built this ant- hill? |
9150 | And who would have thought it was you, Hercules, that carried us away? |
9150 | And will they be nice and elastic? |
9150 | And wo n''t they kill us? |
9150 | Are there any woods without wild beasts? |
9150 | Are you English? |
9150 | Are you not aware, sir, that my researches as an entomologist are confined entirely to the hexapoda? |
9150 | Are you quite sure, Dick, that Mr. Harris has deceived us? |
9150 | Are you ready, my lads? |
9150 | Ask your mamma, my boy,said Harris,"whether she ever heard of lions and tigers in America?" |
9150 | Before you had got rid of your cargo? |
9150 | Blocked up? |
9150 | Broken? |
9150 | But do n''t you know, Benedict,said Mrs. Weldon,"that Captain Hull is far too particular to allow any vermin on the deck of his vessel?" |
9150 | But do not the vessels which ply between Chili and Peru come within sight of this coast? |
9150 | But do you mean,asked Mrs. Weldon,"that you are not going yourself to take the schooner to San Francisco?" |
9150 | But do you not think,inquired Mrs. Weldon,"that you have made some error in your reckoning? |
9150 | But has Mrs. Weldon never visited these parts? 9150 But how is he to know the truth of your statement?" |
9150 | But is there no farm anywhere near? 9150 But on what part? |
9150 | But tell me, Hercules, how did you save him? |
9150 | But the profit is worth the risk, captain, is n''t it? |
9150 | But what will become of my boy? |
9150 | But what will happen if we fail to get a pilot? |
9150 | But where are we to go? |
9150 | But where? |
9150 | But why should we not make another opening above the water level? |
9150 | But you have no reason to suppose, Captain Hull, that Vernon ever owned a dog of this description? |
9150 | Ca n''t I help? |
9150 | Certainly, Captain Hull,she answered;"but why do you ask?" |
9150 | Certainly; why? |
9150 | Dick, is it you? |
9150 | Dick,said Mrs. Weldon, after looking round her,"where is Mr. Harris? |
9150 | Do n''t I tell you, my dear fellow, that it was more than time for me to give them the slip? |
9150 | Do n''t you think it very singular, sir, that this dog should have such a knowledge of the alphabet? |
9150 | Do you know this dog? |
9150 | Do you mean that great creatures like whales feed on such tiny things as these? |
9150 | Do you mean that he has gone on ahead? |
9150 | Do you mean that there is no other course to be taken, Dick? |
9150 | Do you suppose that he never knew where the animal came from, or to whom he had previously belonged? |
9150 | From Lima? 9150 Had we not better light a good large fire?" |
9150 | Have I come six thousand miles for this? |
9150 | Have I not understood correctly,he said,"that the pampas is similar to the North American savannahs, only less marshy?" |
9150 | Have you ever tasted them? |
9150 | Have you heard from papa? |
9150 | Have you never been on the coast of South America before? |
9150 | He would not hesitate to come; but how could he know we are here? |
9150 | How do you mean? 9150 How far is this,"she said, after bending a considerable time over the chart;"how far is this from the coast of America?" |
9150 | How far were we from land when we lost the captain? |
9150 | How long, then, do you reckon, Dick, we ought to be in arriving at the coast? |
9150 | How now? |
9150 | How? 9150 Hush,"he whispered,"did n''t you hear a rustling in that clump of papyrus?" |
9150 | I was thinking of your father, my child,she answered;"would you not like to see him?" |
9150 | I? 9150 I?" |
9150 | Is he at the market at Bihé? |
9150 | Is it not possible,asked Mrs Weldon,"that some poor creature may still survive on board, who can tell what has happened?" |
9150 | Is it really very curious? |
9150 | Is it venomous? |
9150 | Is the camp deserted? |
9150 | Is there nothing,said little Jack,"that I can learn to do?" |
9150 | Is this of any use to you? |
9150 | It is my business,replied Dick resolutely;"and I mean to have an answer; what brought you here?" |
9150 | Kill you? |
9150 | Know him? 9150 Negoro? |
9150 | No interest? |
9150 | North or South? |
9150 | O, I shall not pull very hard,said Jack;"but have n''t we nearly come to Mr. Harris''s farm?" |
9150 | Pardon me,she said presently;"but you do not seem to me to be a native of Peru?" |
9150 | Shall I put him overboard, captain? 9150 So soon?" |
9150 | Surely, you can not mean,cried Mrs Weldon,"that any one could be capable of such inhumanity?" |
9150 | Then do you mean to say that it was mere accident that brought you to the coast of Africa? |
9150 | Then what do you intend to do? |
9150 | Then what is to be done? |
9150 | Then where am I to get my orders from? |
9150 | Then why do you not write to him? |
9150 | Then why in the name of peace did n''t you take command of the ship? |
9150 | Then why should we not go south? |
9150 | Was it not over hazardous,asked the captain,"to venture upon a voyage of between 5000 and 6000 miles in so small a sailing- vessel?" |
9150 | Well, Benedict, how are you getting on? |
9150 | Well, Captain Dick, how are you? |
9150 | What about? |
9150 | What ails the brute? |
9150 | What animals? |
9150 | What are we to do, Tom? |
9150 | What are you expecting? |
9150 | What ever do you mean? |
9150 | What is it, Tom? |
9150 | What is the matter, Dick? |
9150 | What makes you so sad, mamma? |
9150 | What sort of tricks? |
9150 | What then, Dick, what then? |
9150 | What were you looking for under that bench? |
9150 | What you stole from the''Pilgrim''? |
9150 | What''s the matter now, captain? |
9150 | What''s the matter with them? |
9150 | What? 9150 What?" |
9150 | Where is the horse? |
9150 | Where''s Howick? |
9150 | Where''s the land? |
9150 | Where? 9150 Where?" |
9150 | Which shall you sell? |
9150 | Who''s that? 9150 Who, then, can it be?" |
9150 | Whom do you mean? 9150 Why did n''t you blow with your big mouth?" |
9150 | Why do n''t you send and search the underwood? 9150 Why? |
9150 | Will it please your majesty to take part in the business of the_ lakoni_? |
9150 | Will the king take pombé or mead? |
9150 | Write to him? |
9150 | Yes, yes; is he coming here? |
9150 | You are quite sure that it is safe to give it him? |
9150 | You do n''t mean that we are going to cross the Andes? |
9150 | You will see,answered Negoro significantly;"but first of all tell me something about our employer, old Alvez; how is he?" |
9150 | After I had called her by name several times she stared at me, and at last said,"Ah, Mr. Dick, is it you? |
9150 | Already one of his prisoners had eluded his vigilance, and was he now to see two more carried off before his eyes? |
9150 | And Cousin Benedict? |
9150 | And apparently glad to turn the subject, he said,"Now, madam, I am at your service; shall we start at once?" |
9150 | And can not fleas go through a drill and fire a gun as well as the most accomplished artilleryman? |
9150 | And is n''t this, too, the land of the golden- tipped calosomi? |
9150 | And turning to the old negro, he continued,--"Tom did n''t you say that this dog did not always belong to the captain of the''Waldeck''?" |
9150 | And why should we fear about finding a pilot? |
9150 | Are not the structures of ants the very models for the architects of a city? |
9150 | Are you ready, Howick?" |
9150 | Benedict?" |
9150 | But how was this return journey to be accomplished? |
9150 | But scarcely had the little troop advanced fifty yards upon their way, when Tom suddenly cried out,--"Where''s Dingo?" |
9150 | But were you caught by the English?" |
9150 | But you did n''t come back in the same fashion?" |
9150 | Catching sight of him, Dick roused himself in an instant, and said,--"You want to speak to me?" |
9150 | Dick almost shrieked;"where is her child?" |
9150 | Dick would perpetually ask himself: had he been sailing in a wrong direction? |
9150 | Dick, tell me, what do you think about it?" |
9150 | Dick?" |
9150 | Did I not direct you to keep to your cabin?" |
9150 | Did not the horses of Nicomedes, Scanderberg and Oppian die of grief for the loss of their masters? |
9150 | Do you understand?" |
9150 | Do you understand?" |
9150 | Harris, who had been a silent spectator of the whole scene, now asked coolly,--"What makes that animal have such an inveterate dislike to you?" |
9150 | Harris?" |
9150 | Has Hercules nothing more to communicate? |
9150 | Has the diving- bell of the aquatic argyroneta ever been surpassed by the invention of the most skilful student of mechanical art? |
9150 | Have there not been instances of donkeys with wonderful memories? |
9150 | He understood their meaning; of what avail was flight when the savages would be upon their track in a few minutes after? |
9150 | He would of course endeavour by all means to get the schooner on by incessant tacking; but was there not the certainty of a most hazardous delay? |
9150 | II-14-a Dr. Livingstone II-14-b With none to guide him except a few natives II-14-c"You are Dr. Livingstone, I presume?" |
9150 | In a moment or two afterwards, he said,--"I suppose, sir, you acknowledge that Sir John Franklin was an eminent member of your profession?" |
9150 | Is it a sea- weed that is making the water so strange a colour? |
9150 | Is your speed really what you have supposed?" |
9150 | Little Jack put in his word,--"And you will try and catch the whale without hurting him much?" |
9150 | May I not declare it a lucky chance that has brought you here?" |
9150 | May I not indulge the hope of seeing them at Kazonndé? |
9150 | Might not that light canoe, floating bottom upwards, be made the means for yet another grasp at life? |
9150 | Mrs. Weldon had hardly begun to express her thanks for the proposal when he said abruptly,--"Are these negroes your slaves?" |
9150 | Mrs. Weldon interposed;"but are you not satisfied with the result of your explorations in New Zealand?" |
9150 | Must not the chase be abandoned? |
9150 | Nothing to be seen of Nan; was she, poor creature, one of those that the crocodiles had got? |
9150 | She reflected for a considerable time, and then asked,--"And who is to undertake the task of exploring?" |
9150 | Tired, but could not sleep; heard a rustling in the grass; felt sure that something was going to attack me; what could I do? |
9150 | Turning round, he said abruptly,--"Did you meet a Portuguese last night, named Negoro?" |
9150 | Was he dreaming? |
9150 | Was it absolutely impossible that her liberation should be effected by some different means altogether? |
9150 | Was it asleep? |
9150 | Was it not likely that Harris or Negoro might be with him? |
9150 | Was it not possible even now that by sacrificing his own life he could save the lives of those that were entrusted to him? |
9150 | Was it not possible for the unfortunate men, bleeding and wounded as they were, still to save themselves by clinging to some floating spar? |
9150 | Was it not possible that some natives, attracted by the wreck, would assault them in hopes of plunder? |
9150 | Was it possible that the animal recognized the coast? |
9150 | Was she not, after all, on friendly soil? |
9150 | Was the beast going to escape again? |
9150 | Was the fatiguing pursuit all to come over a second time? |
9150 | Weldon?" |
9150 | Weldon?" |
9150 | What are you going to do with me and my friends?" |
9150 | What could be done? |
9150 | What could be the solution of the mystery? |
9150 | What could they do against a hundred natives? |
9150 | What had been the career, what could be the motives of a man who was capable of such vile machinations? |
9150 | What has become of Hercules? |
9150 | What have you been doing since? |
9150 | What measures could he take to prevent the schooner being dashed to pieces against it? |
9150 | What should he do in such a case? |
9150 | What was he to imagine? |
9150 | Where were the bright green macaws? |
9150 | Will the little man let me kiss him too?" |
9150 | Would not the prize have to be given up? |
9150 | Yet, in what manner would the odious stratagem be accomplished? |
9150 | You could hardly want to catalogue him with the diptera or hymenoptera?" |
9150 | [ Illustration: Jack cried out in the greatest excitement that Dingo knew how to read]"Is nothing known about this traveller?" |
9150 | [ Illustration:"I suppose Weldon will not mind coming to fetch you?"] |
9150 | [ Illustration:"You are Dr. Livingstone, I presume?"] |
9150 | all this time, where was he? |
9150 | and of the prickly- legged goliaths of Guinea and Gabon? |
9150 | and what had he been doing? |
9150 | and worse than this, was there not a likelihood of the"Pilgrim"being once again driven far out to sea? |
9150 | are we near Peru?" |
9150 | asked Benedict;"did he ever really live?" |
9150 | asked Dick eagerly;"what is the meaning of all this noise?" |
9150 | assented another sailor;"parrots talk, and magpies talk; why should n''t a dog? |
9150 | cried Benedict, at once warmed into enthusiasm;"why, are they not the very orthoptera that roused the imprecations of Virgil and Horace? |
9150 | cried Mrs. Weldon incredulously;"what island can it be?" |
9150 | cried Mrs. Weldon,"Ah, I have had a fancy lately that there has been something wrong: but why? |
9150 | cried the negro,"then what can it be?" |
9150 | exclaimed Dick;"are we anywhere near the desert of Atacama?" |
9150 | from a boy of fifteen?" |
9150 | had he failed to steer aright? |
9150 | has Dick been telling you about Negoro?" |
9150 | he cried out in sudden alarm;"what are you doing, sir?" |
9150 | he cried:"have I endured storm and shipwreck only to be cast where not a hexapod is to be seen? |
9150 | is she dead?" |
9150 | might they not follow after and overtake Mrs. Weldon in the forest? |
9150 | no shelter?" |
9150 | no village? |
9150 | no; why should I?" |
9150 | or has any mishap befallen him? |
9150 | repeated the captain thoughtfully;"are not those the letters that form the initials on his collar?" |
9150 | roared Negoro;"do you suppose there is a single soul to care about you? |
9150 | said Benedict contemptuously;"do you imagine they would be afraid of you? |
9150 | said Dick to the old man, who continued in a lower voice,--"It is just as if Negoro had followed us; do you think it is likely?" |
9150 | said Mrs. Weldon firmly;"you know you are making an idle threat; who do you suppose would purchase people of white blood?" |
9150 | shall we make the venture? |
9150 | she cried;"what do you mean?" |
9150 | was he mad? |
9150 | was he to lose the whole of the expected ransom? |
9150 | what can be their motive?" |
9150 | what do you mean?" |
9150 | what do you think? |
9150 | what great harm could Harris perpetrate against her or her belongings? |
9150 | what had become of them? |
9150 | what is it?" |
9150 | what island? |
9150 | what''s the matter?" |
9150 | what? |
9150 | what?" |
9150 | where were the gaudy aras with their bare white cheeks and pointed tails, which seem never to light upon the ground? |
9150 | where were they? |
9150 | where''s Negoro?" |
9150 | whither had this incessant hurricane driven them? |
9150 | who is Negoro?" |
9150 | who will concern himself with what befalls you? |
9150 | who''s there? |
9150 | why did not the expected coast appear? |
9150 | why not?" |
9150 | why? |
9150 | you refuse?" |
38296 | A book of adventure? |
38296 | Ah? |
38296 | All the way to the North Pole? 38296 And echo answers,` Where?''" |
38296 | And has n''t it got much colder? |
38296 | And is it inside the volcano,cries Rory,"you''d be taking us to warm us? |
38296 | And so you tell me,said the younger,"that the work still goes bravely on?" |
38296 | And so you''ve been in Spitzbergen, have you? |
38296 | And the clergyman, captain, the clergyman, the poor girl''s father? |
38296 | And the people enjoy it? |
38296 | And what did he do? |
38296 | And what kind of a monster is this Greenland shark? |
38296 | And what says Rory? |
38296 | And where do they go after that? |
38296 | And where do you sleep at night, Jim? |
38296 | And whither were you bound for when we overtook you, my poor girl? |
38296 | And why not? |
38296 | And yet how strange that a pirate should, cruise in these far northern seas? |
38296 | And yet who else can it be? |
38296 | And you have never written a word to him about our new ship and our purposed voyage? |
38296 | And you''re wondering,said Nat,"where a piece of elongated mortality like myself stretches himself of a night on board the_ Highflier_?" |
38296 | And,''deed, indeed,replied Rory,"there is little to choose betwixt the pair of you; so what can I do but be sorry for you both?" |
38296 | Any more of them? |
38296 | Are there many? |
38296 | Are you better? |
38296 | Are you done with my log? |
38296 | Are your eyes shut? |
38296 | Ay, ay, sir? |
38296 | Ay,says Silas,"and a whole week without seeing a seal-- isn''t it astonishing?" |
38296 | Back to Jan Mayen? |
38296 | Bears, did you say? 38296 Boat gone, is it?" |
38296 | But concave at the top? |
38296 | But stay, my son, stay,continued this weird little man, holding up a warning finger;"those rushing winds--""Yes, Magnus?" |
38296 | But suppose, Jim, we went far away-- as far as the North Pole? |
38296 | But the frost is n''t likely to go for a week, is it now? |
38296 | But the ship-- this pirate? |
38296 | But there''s a deal o''palaver about it, do n''t you think so, sir? |
38296 | But what is that in the middle of yonder ice- floe to the south and west? |
38296 | But what is this? |
38296 | But where in the name of wonder are we now? |
38296 | But where is the foe, sir? |
38296 | But where will ye get the ox? 38296 But wherever do you think he means cruising to at all, at all?" |
38296 | But,said Rory,"did n''t you go a trifle too near that time, Mister de Vere?" |
38296 | Can it be night so soon? |
38296 | Can this be,said McBain,"the self- same pirate that attacked the_ Snowbird_?" |
38296 | Can you build barrows? |
38296 | Captain,said Ted, firmly,"we did n''t sign articles to fight, did we, mates?" |
38296 | Captain,said one of the men, stepping forward,"will you let me speak to you? |
38296 | Come on I come on? |
38296 | Could we not,said Ralph,"all snowblind as we are, try to grope our way upwards?" |
38296 | D''ye know,said Ralph, looking smilingly towards Seth,"it is quite like old times to see Seth once more in the midst of us?" |
38296 | De minor ole gem''lam,replied the boy;"but do n''t dey fit, sah? |
38296 | Dear me? |
38296 | Did I make the ship? |
38296 | Did n''t you hear me tapping on the pane for you? |
38296 | Distress? 38296 Do n''t tell him?" |
38296 | Do n''t you call that graphic? |
38296 | Do n''t you long to join them? |
38296 | Do you keep a djin? |
38296 | Do you know the_ Stemmatopus cristatus_? |
38296 | Do you know what I have done? |
38296 | Do you know,said Rory,"I feel for all the world like being in an enchanted cave? |
38296 | Do you mean to say you are going to catch sharks in earnest, you know? |
38296 | Does it smell badly? |
38296 | Down south here,said McBain--"if we can call it south-- the seals have their young on the ice, do n''t they?" |
38296 | Fear? |
38296 | Fenders? 38296 Fenders?" |
38296 | Freezin''Powders, at your service, sah-- your under- steward and butler, sah? |
38296 | From which you infer--? |
38296 | Funny old stick,said Silas, joining in his merriment,"ai n''t I?" |
38296 | Fust- rate,said Silas--"just fust- rate; but where is Ralph and the captain?" |
38296 | Good night,asks Ray,"but how do you do it?" |
38296 | Ha? |
38296 | Ha? |
38296 | Had I now? |
38296 | Happy reunion, wo n''t it be? |
38296 | Have you a surname, Jim? |
38296 | Have you any money, Jim? |
38296 | Have you wound your watch, Ray? |
38296 | Heaven help us? |
38296 | Hey? 38296 High- water about half- past two, is n''t it, Stevenson?" |
38296 | How do they bore the holes, I wonder? |
38296 | How is the glass now, Mr Stevenson? |
38296 | How long d''ye think,said Captain Cobb, one morning, while at breakfast in the_ Arrandoon_--"how long d''ye think this state of affairs''ll last? |
38296 | How mindful of the captain? |
38296 | How now, Stevenson? |
38296 | How soon,he asked the former,"can you get up steam?" |
38296 | Hurrah for the foretop? |
38296 | Hurrah? |
38296 | I beg your pardon, Captain McBain,said Rory, at once; and with all becoming gravity he saluted, and continued,"Please, sir, may I go on shore?" |
38296 | I daresay you fellows are glad to get home? |
38296 | I declare,he said,"I feel just like a schoolboy home for a holiday?" |
38296 | I mean, Jim, have you a second name? |
38296 | I say, siree? |
38296 | I shall remember this to my dying day? |
38296 | I wonder how old Tweed is getting on? |
38296 | I''m afraid so, sir,replies Mitchell;"but--"and here he eyes the bellowing canvas--"it do seem a pity, sir, do n''t it?" |
38296 | I_ could_ get up steam in twenty minutes,he said;"those American hams, sir--""Oh, bother the hams?" |
38296 | If what? |
38296 | In bow? |
38296 | Is dinner all laid? |
38296 | Is n''t it funny? 38296 Is n''t that pretty, Ray?" |
38296 | Is she snug? |
38296 | Is supper ready? |
38296 | It is fenders to throw overboard when the ice is too obtrusive, is n''t it, sir? |
38296 | It is strange, is n''t it, sir? |
38296 | It is strange,said McBain;"and from this what do you anticipate?" |
38296 | It is the_ Scymnus borealis_, is n''t it? |
38296 | Jim is what they call you, is n''t it? |
38296 | Just like my luck, now, is n''t it? |
38296 | Keep it up, keep it up, keep it up? |
38296 | Make a kind of harbour, you mean? |
38296 | Man-- Rory? |
38296 | Matie,said Silas, pointing skywards,"do you see any difference in the colour yonder?" |
38296 | More hands, Ap? |
38296 | Mr Stevenson, when will the moon rise? |
38296 | Much to be done? |
38296 | No rum, gentlemen? |
38296 | No, Row? 38296 Now the finale?" |
38296 | Now, Magnus, old man,continued McBain,"d''ye mind the time, some years ago in the_ Snowbird_, when you rid us of that troublesome pirate?" |
38296 | Och, botheration? |
38296 | Odd, is n''t it? |
38296 | Oh yes,said De Vere, laughing in turn;"very dark; as dark as--""Hush?" |
38296 | Oh? |
38296 | On deck there? |
38296 | Reikjavik? |
38296 | Remember, gunners,cried McBain,"we''ve got to take that ship, and not to sink her; so waste not a shot between wind and water?" |
38296 | Return? |
38296 | Risk, Stevenson? |
38296 | Shall we risk taking the ice again? |
38296 | So you will, so you will,said Magnus,"if--""What, another` if,''Magnus?" |
38296 | So you''ve been a millionaire, Rory? |
38296 | Spin you a yarn, d''ye say? 38296 Suppose we try to break it with a song? |
38296 | Tell us,said Rory:"troth, it''s a treat to hear ye talking?" |
38296 | That we will, sir, at all events,said the mate;"but see, sir, what is that yonder?" |
38296 | The postman? |
38296 | The top of the morning to you, friend Silas,said Rory;"how do you feel after your blow- out at Captain Cobb''s?" |
38296 | The what? |
38296 | The what? |
38296 | They are slow in their movements, are n''t they? |
38296 | Think of it, sir? 38296 Think of it?" |
38296 | To- night? |
38296 | Told ye it would, hey? 38296 Was it funny?" |
38296 | Wash him, sah? |
38296 | We are positively under steam again, Sandy? |
38296 | We are-- under-- way? |
38296 | We sailed around the island next day but saw no signs of him? |
38296 | We wo n''t have much sport, though,said Rory, with a sigh,"if we have to remain here long, for the bears will follow the seals, wo n''t they?" |
38296 | We''ll spend a bucket or two of paint over him, wo n''t we, boys? |
38296 | Well, Freezing Powders,said McBain,"and pray what are you sighing about?" |
38296 | Well, Jim,said McBain, laughing,"would you like to sail in a big ship with me, and-- and-- black my boots?" |
38296 | Well, duckie? |
38296 | Well, duckie? |
38296 | Well,replied the skipper,"what have you to say?" |
38296 | Well,said Silas,"you would n''t, imagine that a fellow with such an ugly chunk o''a figure- head as that had feelings, eh? |
38296 | Well? |
38296 | Well? |
38296 | Well? |
38296 | Were these the only times that I was cast away? 38296 What are you going to be doing after lunch?" |
38296 | What are you grinning at now? |
38296 | What cheer, Mr Ap Ewen? |
38296 | What do they know? 38296 What do you think, sir?" |
38296 | What do you think,said McBain, one morning just after breakfast--"what do you think, Rory, I''m going to make to- day?" |
38296 | What does it look like, Mr Stevenson? |
38296 | What does it mean? |
38296 | What does this new` if''refer to? |
38296 | What for I sigh? |
38296 | What fun? |
38296 | What have you done with the young lady? |
38296 | What more malley- shooting? |
38296 | What now, Rory? 38296 What prospects?" |
38296 | What ship, my boy? |
38296 | What''ll the old woman say, hey? 38296 What''s all the to- do about? |
38296 | What''s the row? 38296 What''s the row? |
38296 | What? 38296 What?" |
38296 | What? |
38296 | What? |
38296 | What_ is_ the matter? |
38296 | What_ would_ my owners say, boy? 38296 Whatever can it be?" |
38296 | When can you start, my dear Silas? |
38296 | When did I hear from Allan and Rory? |
38296 | When did you hear from Allan and Rory? |
38296 | Where are the sugar- plums, doctor? |
38296 | Where away? |
38296 | Which of you troglodytes is going with me to- morrow to see the sun rise? |
38296 | Who in the name of all that is marvellous have we here? |
38296 | Who''s coming? |
38296 | Who? |
38296 | Whustle, will ye? |
38296 | Why the guard? |
38296 | Why, it is music, it is life? |
38296 | Why, my dear, who_ can_ it be from? |
38296 | Will you go, Allan,he cried,"and bag a bear? |
38296 | Wo ho, my beauty? |
38296 | Wo n''t the green ginger fly? |
38296 | Wordsworth''s_ We are seven_? |
38296 | Yes, Row? |
38296 | Yes,cried Rory;"where are the plums? |
38296 | Yes,reiterated Rory, stopping in front of the doctor;"as you say, doctor,` Wha wouldna''be a sea- bird?'' |
38296 | Yonder is the stage, boys,cried Rory;"but where are the performers?" |
38296 | You are a bold man,he said;"you will come with me to- day in de balloon?" |
38296 | You are quite right, Sandy,said Rory in reply--"quite right; and do you know what it will be, Sandy?" |
38296 | You have forgiven your men, have n''t you? |
38296 | You have n''t been drinking, matie,said Silas, glancing gloomily upwards,"have you?" |
38296 | You see, Captain Grig,McBain had observed,"we must have you as much with as now as we can, for we soon go different roads, do n''t we?" |
38296 | You think, then, that that end is inevitable? |
38296 | You''ll fight? 38296 You''ve seen the sea- lion, I suppose, Captain Grig?" |
38296 | You''ve something to ask me, I think? |
38296 | ` Adventure''you mean, do n''t you? |
38296 | ` All alone, are you, Silas?'' 38296 ` Did ever you do anything clever in your life, Sandy?'' |
38296 | ` What use would you be?'' 38296 ***** But where are now the festive board, The martial throng, and midnight song? 38296 ------------------------------------------------------------------------How far do you intend to bring her out?" |
38296 | A fast train? |
38296 | A flying train? |
38296 | A likely thing I''d have them open, is n''t it?" |
38296 | A sail in sight at last; and how many of us, think you, were alive to see it? |
38296 | Ah, ladies, how are you? |
38296 | All ready, eh? |
38296 | Allan, boy, ca n''t you tell me? |
38296 | Allan? |
38296 | Am I right, mates?" |
38296 | And every bush and shrub and flower is all a- quiver with a strange, indescribable motion, which greatly heightens their magical beauty; and why? |
38296 | And every"hey?" |
38296 | And if you were to ask me,"Was he, too, brave?" |
38296 | And now,"he continued,"what think you of the prospect? |
38296 | And round spun the bird, keeping time to the merry air, and every now and then giving a"whoop?" |
38296 | And so, you say, in all your experience-- and it has been very vast, has n''t it, my friend?" |
38296 | And why not? |
38296 | And you saw the blood?" |
38296 | Any tidings?" |
38296 | Ask me rather what I_ augur_? |
38296 | Bear- and- ham pie, engineer; how will that eat, eh?" |
38296 | Breakfast all ready, is it, Peter? |
38296 | But I say, Row, d''ye remember the proverb about Claudius? |
38296 | But I say, Row--""Well, Ray?" |
38296 | But I''m sent out here to make a voyage, and what can I do? |
38296 | But is n''t it high enough you are now, aroon? |
38296 | But is she a man- o''-war, I wonder?" |
38296 | But see yonder, is that a seal on the ice that is creeping closer and closer up behind the bear? |
38296 | But see, what aileth our hero, boy Rory? |
38296 | But what is that strange, mournful cry that is heard among the hills far up above them? |
38296 | But what is the something more that makes our men so happy?" |
38296 | But where was the ship? |
38296 | But why did n''t she wait for the train? |
38296 | But why do n''t you speak more, Rory, as your messmates call you?" |
38296 | But, I say,"he added, after a moment''s pause,"I do n''t suppose there will be any refreshment- stalls down there-- eh?" |
38296 | But, doctor,"he continued,"what say you to some music?" |
38296 | But, talking of brewin'', I wonder how the soup is getting on?" |
38296 | But,"he added, turning to Allan and Rory,"you''ll look after the lad, wo n''t you?" |
38296 | By the way, do the people still flock down on Friday afternoons to look over the ship?" |
38296 | By` the minor ole gem''lam''I suppose you mean honest Magnus? |
38296 | Captain Grig, may I trouble you again?" |
38296 | Come, what shall we sing--`The wearing o''the green''?" |
38296 | Could n''t they stop a month? |
38296 | D''ye hear? |
38296 | D''ye hear?" |
38296 | D''ye play at all? |
38296 | Did ever you see a sky more blue before, or cloudlets more fleecy and light? |
38296 | Did n''t I? |
38296 | Do n''t dey become dis chile? |
38296 | Do n''t ye remember robbing my nest last year? |
38296 | Do you fear?" |
38296 | Do you know what, Ray?" |
38296 | Do_ you_ seal on Sunday? |
38296 | Does not Sir Walter Scott tell us that they laugh in their ranks as they go forward to battle-- that they--"Move to death with military glee?" |
38296 | Down into the crater, to toast our toes at Vulcan''s own fireside? |
38296 | Dreaming of what? |
38296 | Eh? |
38296 | Eh? |
38296 | Extempore, did you ask? |
38296 | Freezing Powders, you young rascal, drop on to your other end; do n''t you see you''re making Polly believe the world is upside down? |
38296 | Funny, ai n''t it, sir?--queer, is n''t it, cap''n?" |
38296 | Get down topgallant masts, it will be a bit of exercise for the men; let us have all the steam we can command, and--""Batten down, sir?" |
38296 | Had not he dubbed himself Queen o''the May? |
38296 | Has it not been said that the greatest pleasure on earth is felt on the sudden surcease of severe pain? |
38296 | Has the reader ever been to sea? |
38296 | Have they a secret, we wonder? |
38296 | Have you any favourite instrument?" |
38296 | Have you any more in store for us? |
38296 | He wo n''t take his eyes off the book, nor move as much as one drowsy eyelid, but he manages to say,--"What are they about on deck, Rory?" |
38296 | Heigho?" |
38296 | Hey, boys? |
38296 | Hey, matie? |
38296 | Hey? |
38296 | Hey? |
38296 | Hey?" |
38296 | How d''ye like it, eh?" |
38296 | How do you like the prospect of living here for three months without ever catching a blink of the sun?" |
38296 | How do you like the prospect?" |
38296 | How is the glass, Rory?" |
38296 | How is the weather?" |
38296 | How know you there is wealth of ivory lying there?" |
38296 | Hurrah?" |
38296 | I can assure you, I would have liked, well enough, to run away, but with all the ship''s crew looking at me--? |
38296 | I envy-- yes, I envy the dead in their quiet graves, and even wish it were all past-- all, all over?" |
38296 | I lay on my face for five minutes, with no more breath in my old bellows than there is in a dead badger?" |
38296 | I say, Ray, would n''t it be glorious to go surging over the ice- fields drawn by a hundred fleet- footed hounds?" |
38296 | I say,"he added, after a pause,"you know my mate?" |
38296 | I should answer,"Are not poets and Irishmen always brave? |
38296 | I was right?" |
38296 | I wonder will ever we return, or will the great sea swallow us up? |
38296 | If not--""Well, Magnus, well?" |
38296 | Is breakfast all ready, old man?" |
38296 | Is everybody dead on board?" |
38296 | Is it dreaming I am? |
38296 | Is it my head or my heels that I''m standing on? |
38296 | Is it not glorious, Silas? |
38296 | Is it possible that our quiet surgeon has won the heart of this beautiful fair- haired Danish maiden? |
38296 | Is it thunder? |
38296 | Is not this true friendship? |
38296 | Is the adjective"dead,"then, not unnecessary? |
38296 | It has been nothing but flay, flay, flay, for the last two rounds of the sun, and there is n''t such a very long night now, is there? |
38296 | It is n''t exactly a fair wind for you to bear up, is it?" |
38296 | It is nice, though, is n''t it, to hear the old screw rattling round again?" |
38296 | It was only a trifle over three miles; there were cabs to be had in abundance, but what young man would ride if he had time to walk? |
38296 | It''s come to that, has it? |
38296 | Lend us a hand with your fellows, will you?" |
38296 | Look sharp?" |
38296 | Meanwhile, how fared it with our boys? |
38296 | Meanwhile, what might not happen? |
38296 | Men, are we in danger?" |
38296 | Mitchell,"he continued, as the second mate next entered hat in hand,"what''s in the wind now, man?" |
38296 | Need I say, then, that he was an artist? |
38296 | No idlers, d''ye hear?" |
38296 | No wonder the cockatoo cried,--"De- ah me?" |
38296 | Now then, Donald, bustle about, will you? |
38296 | Now what do ye say to try to sleep? |
38296 | Now wo n''t I have a blow- out just?" |
38296 | Oh?" |
38296 | Puffed? |
38296 | Queer, ai n''t it?" |
38296 | Return? |
38296 | SANDIE MCFLAIL, M.D.--"WHA WOULDNA''BE A SEA- BIRD?" |
38296 | Said the spider to the fly?" |
38296 | Shall I hit him on the head, or shoot him in the chest? |
38296 | Shall I land in de regions of desolation?" |
38296 | Shall I make my descent here? |
38296 | Shall I pull vat Monsieur Rory call de valve halyard? |
38296 | She''ll have more of it; wo n''t she, matie mine?" |
38296 | Silence did I say? |
38296 | Since when did you learn to read with your book upside down?" |
38296 | Size? |
38296 | Splash? |
38296 | Sure, they were worth a million of money?" |
38296 | Tell me that, eh?" |
38296 | The classification is handy, say you? |
38296 | The mate laughed and commenced to sing--"` Wo n''t you walk into my parlour?'' |
38296 | The men among ye that know a seal- club from a toastin''-fork, or a lowrie- tow from a bell- rope, just elevate a hand, will ye?" |
38296 | The old question, chief-- How soon can you get us under way?" |
38296 | Then comes a hail from the crow''s- nest,--"Below there?" |
38296 | Then these questions chased each other through my brain:"How near will I let the beggar come before I fire? |
38296 | Then, after a pause, he added, more heartily,"But we''ll meet again, wo n''t we?" |
38296 | There may not be another ship within hundreds of miles; the wind may be rising or the wind may be falling-- what do you care? |
38296 | There?" |
38296 | Those clouds ai n''t natural this time o''the year, and do n''t you see the spots in the sun? |
38296 | Was a storm raging beneath them? |
38296 | Was it not possible that they might meet with a similar fate? |
38296 | We are not going to assist you in this; we are sportsmen, not butchers, Captain Grig?" |
38296 | We''ll lie close together, you know, and it''s warm we''ll be in a jiffey?" |
38296 | We''ll reach the Isle of Alba, sir, if--""If what, good Magnus?" |
38296 | Well then, a fortnight? |
38296 | Well, suppose your torpedoes were to be floated in under my ship, and went bursting off there?" |
38296 | Well, well; but d''ye think you''ll find it?" |
38296 | Wha wouldna''be a sea- bird?" |
38296 | What about Seth? |
38296 | What care I that my tenantry--`the foinest pisintry in the world''--haven''t paid up? |
38296 | What cheer, Mr Ap Ewen?" |
38296 | What could McBain say, what argument adduce, to prevent this rough old tar from risking his life in what he considered a matter of duty? |
38296 | What could it mean, that low, deep, long- continued thunderpeal? |
38296 | What else can a carcass or crang be but"dead"? |
38296 | What evidence have I before me, do you ask? |
38296 | What is in it-- sandwiches?" |
38296 | What is that?" |
38296 | What is the mystery? |
38296 | What is to be done?" |
38296 | What need you care? |
38296 | What shall he be done to, Allan?" |
38296 | What shall we do with him, Ralph? |
38296 | What''s all the to- do about?" |
38296 | What''s the row? |
38296 | What''s the row? |
38296 | What''s the row?" |
38296 | What''s the row?" |
38296 | Whatever made you think of this? |
38296 | Whatever shall I do at all, at all? |
38296 | When you wants a mouf- ful of hemp just hop down for it, else de blood all run to your poor head, den you die in a fit?" |
38296 | Where are the games? |
38296 | Where are the may- poles, with their circles of rosy- cheeked children dancing gleesomely around them? |
38296 | Where are the revels? |
38296 | Where do I get them? |
38296 | Where was it that that blood was not? |
38296 | Where, it may be asked, did the fuel come from? |
38296 | Which of our heroes shall we start with first? |
38296 | Who but Rory-- who but an artist- poet could have painted that? |
38296 | Who knows but that after that you may get a fair wind to carry you right away south into summer weather in little over a week?" |
38296 | Who would go with De Vere in this first great trip over the regions of perpetual snow? |
38296 | Who would have thought that Peter of Arrandoon would have lived to play his own coronach?" |
38296 | Why, what is that green- looking stuff in those glasses, doctor?" |
38296 | Why, who dressed you, my little Freezin''Powders?" |
38296 | Will she float? |
38296 | Would you like to wash your hands?" |
38296 | Ye thought I''d scupper him, did n''t you, soon''s the ship was taken? |
38296 | Ye thought this child was your slave, did n''t ye? |
38296 | Yes, fair France, go to Berlin if you choose, only first and foremost you have to overthrow-- what? |
38296 | You don''t-- hullo?" |
38296 | You not hear de wild winds roar, and de wave make too much bobbery? |
38296 | You see this little bag?" |
38296 | You wo n''t be afraid, will you, Freezing Powders?" |
38296 | Young men, sir, dinna enter Aberdeen University stirks and come out cuddies?" |
38296 | _ Can_ you guess, little wife? |
38296 | ` But,''says the aigle,` do n''t you see that it is sinking you are?'' |
38296 | and what about my little wife, eh?" |
38296 | and, What shall I do if the rifle misses fire?" |
38296 | can you?" |
38296 | cried Sandy, the surgeon, looking curiously overboard,"what''s this noo? |
38296 | cried Sandy;"what next, I wonder?" |
38296 | cries Danny,` to that bit av a thing like a raping- hook? |
38296 | cries the captain;"starboard?" |
38296 | d''ye hear that?" |
38296 | de- ah, what my ole mudder say den?" |
38296 | from honest English Ralph; but Rory murmurs"Moore?" |
38296 | ha?" |
38296 | ha?" |
38296 | he asked with a puzzled look,"and what_ can_ it be about? |
38296 | he said, clutching his friend by the shoulder to keep himself from falling,"what if I had killed you?" |
38296 | he said,"are ye takin''leave o''your wuts? |
38296 | hey?" |
38296 | hey?" |
38296 | how can you make so vile a pun? |
38296 | is it not all beautiful? |
38296 | it''s you, is it, Row? |
38296 | laughed Silas;"would you clap your balloon top of her, and lift her out like?" |
38296 | more salmon and another egg? |
38296 | said Freezing Powders;"is dat de''xpression you make use of, sah? |
38296 | said McBain,"that''s it, is it?" |
38296 | said Rory at dinner that day,"will you fellows never have done eating? |
38296 | said Silas;"well, you do astonish_ me_; but you''ll taste my wife''s green ginger wine, and drink her health?" |
38296 | said the surgeon,"liver a bit out of order, eh?" |
38296 | so you''re fairly caught?" |
38296 | the green paling, to be sure; how could I have forgotten that? |
38296 | the little fellow was shrieking;"what for you kickee my shins so? |
38296 | troth it''ll be fire- irons you''ll be making next, sir; but what do you want with fenders?" |
38296 | troth?" |
38296 | wah- o?" |
38296 | well, surely one short week? |
38296 | what can they teach a man? |
38296 | what now, boy?" |
38296 | what would he say? |
38296 | what''ll I do?'' |
38296 | what''ll become av me at all at all?'' |
38296 | what_ would_ long Cobb say now? |
38296 | where was their lordly_ Arrandoon_? |
38296 | who will feed de cockatoo When I is dead and gone?'' |
38296 | you''ll fight?" |
12051 | A camp, is it not? |
12051 | A captain of fifteen years? |
12051 | Am I very heavy? |
12051 | An entomologist? |
12051 | An old affair? |
12051 | And I,said little Jack,"will I not be able to help my friend, Dick, a little?" |
12051 | And Nan? |
12051 | And at what distance is it from the American coast? |
12051 | And business is lively? |
12051 | And have you not added that the captain of the''Waldeck''had picked up this dog on the western coast of Africa? |
12051 | And her child? |
12051 | And how is that, my young friend? |
12051 | And if we do not meet a pilot? |
12051 | And lions? |
12051 | And may I know, my young friend,he asked,"how you find yourself on this coast?" |
12051 | And my friend Dick? |
12051 | And my friend Hercules? |
12051 | And now,said he,"what are you going to do with those people?" |
12051 | And that perhaps,added Cousin Benedict,"some penetrating or irritating flea-- of a new species----""Do you understand, Dingo?" |
12051 | And that ship, after the collision, did it not return to pick you up? |
12051 | And that was all the secret? |
12051 | And the horse? |
12051 | And then this dog? |
12051 | And this fly is not venomous? |
12051 | And those_ guaras_, they bite? |
12051 | And we have already left it behind? |
12051 | And what has been the ship''s speed? |
12051 | And what is the matter with you? |
12051 | And what will you do with them? |
12051 | And when do you propose to make this business operation? |
12051 | And where are these_ sirafous_ commonly observed? |
12051 | And which of us shall go to explore? |
12051 | And who would buy a white woman? |
12051 | And why did it detest you so much, comrade? |
12051 | And why not, sir? 12051 And will you be able to put the ship in the right direction?" |
12051 | And you do not fear going astray in these forests, which you cross for the first time? |
12051 | And you took command of the ship? |
12051 | And you travel alone? |
12051 | And you would have worked alone? |
12051 | And you, Mr. Benedict,asked Dick Sand,"what do you think of this project?" |
12051 | Another? |
12051 | Are there not pilots who do service along this coast? |
12051 | Are they bad? |
12051 | Are we not, then, in the region of the quinquinas? |
12051 | Are we ready, boys? |
12051 | Are we then on the borders of the desert of that name? |
12051 | Are you not satisfied, then, with the conquests that you have made in New Zealand? |
12051 | Are you very sure, Mr. Harris,asked Mrs. Weldon,"that this fruit can do no harm?" |
12051 | At last,asked Dick Sand,"will you tell us, Mr. Benedict, what is this fly?" |
12051 | Before or after having delivered your cargo? |
12051 | But Mr. Harris''s farm? |
12051 | But at last will you be able to take some rest? |
12051 | But at that period what distance were we from the coast? |
12051 | But have you at least explored the coasts of Colombia, those of Chili, or of Patagonia? |
12051 | But is it not true that this Dingo, though it be of the New Zealand race, was picked up on the western coast of Africa? |
12051 | But perhaps Mrs. Weldon has visited this part of the new continent? |
12051 | But then the''Pilgrim''has not sailed, if we are still so far from the continent? |
12051 | But what are they? |
12051 | But what do you want? 12051 But what is it, then?" |
12051 | But where could she be? 12051 But why?" |
12051 | But will he get that idea? |
12051 | But, Dick,returned Mrs. Weldon,"you well understand, do you not, that this catastrophe may, and indeed must, modify our first projects? |
12051 | But, sir,said the novice,"is it not very astonishing that a dog should know the letters of the alphabet?" |
12051 | But,observed Mrs. Weldon,"do you know if this French traveler was accompanied on his departure by a dog? |
12051 | By a serpent? |
12051 | By the English? |
12051 | By the same road, Dick? |
12051 | Can I help you? |
12051 | Can you have any doubt about that? |
12051 | Captain Sand,said the giant,"do you want me to throw this rascal overboard? |
12051 | Could Dingo have followed Harris? |
12051 | Could we not make a hole in the wall above the level of the water? |
12051 | Could you not be deceived, Dick,returned Mrs. Weldon,"in estimating the''Pilgrim''s''speed?" |
12051 | Dick,remarked Mrs. Weldon,"you are sure that this Harris has betrayed us?" |
12051 | Dick,she asked, after a steady glance,"where is Harris? |
12051 | Dick,she said to the young novice,"Do you see that singular color of the waters of the Pacific? |
12051 | Did she then go down herself? |
12051 | Dingo,he asked,"did you save our friend Dick?" |
12051 | Dingo,said she,"Dingo, is that the way you encourage your friends? |
12051 | Dingo? |
12051 | Do those two letters, then, awake some remembrance? |
12051 | Do you know this dog? |
12051 | Do you see, Negoro? 12051 Do you understand, my dog? |
12051 | Do you want me to go with you, sir? |
12051 | Doctor Livingstone, I presume? |
12051 | Either Negoro does not know this country,went on Dick Sand,"and then he would have every interest in not losing sight of us----""Or?" |
12051 | For what motive? |
12051 | From the South? |
12051 | Handsome ones, very elastic? |
12051 | Harris,said he, lowering his voice,"was there not a trembling in that papyrus bush?" |
12051 | Harris? 12051 Has he never been here?" |
12051 | Has he, then, gone ahead? |
12051 | Has papa written to you? |
12051 | Have not your eyes deceived you, my young friend, and are not those animals more likely to be ostriches? |
12051 | Have they not brought her here? |
12051 | Hercules,said Mrs. Weldon,"tell me, how did you save Dick Sand?" |
12051 | How could he get as far as this? |
12051 | How, then? |
12051 | I shall ask Mr. Harris in what port he thinks we shall be able to find a ship to bring us back to San Francisco? |
12051 | I? 12051 I?" |
12051 | I? |
12051 | If it is not Negoro, where can he be? |
12051 | Is he at the Bihe market? |
12051 | Is he dead? |
12051 | Is it possible that such little beasts can feed such large ones? |
12051 | Is it possible? 12051 Is it practicable?" |
12051 | Is it, then, so difficult? |
12051 | Is the cone, then, entirely under water? |
12051 | Is there, then, on board some shipwrecked one who has survived? |
12051 | It is, then, very precious? |
12051 | Land? |
12051 | Let go? |
12051 | Like that? |
12051 | Meanwhile, cousin,replied the intractable entomologist,"when I perceive an insect?" |
12051 | Mr. Dick,asked Bat,"would you like me to go out of the ant- hill? |
12051 | Mr. Harris,said he,"instead of traveling for one hundred and twenty miles in the Desert of Atacama, why not follow the coast? |
12051 | Mr. Harris,said he,"when do we set out?" |
12051 | Must we then clear the Andes range? |
12051 | Negoro? |
12051 | Never? |
12051 | Now, Dick, can you tell where the''Pilgrim''is? |
12051 | On what must we pull? |
12051 | One does not escape from the gallows,replied Negoro;"but from prison--""You were able to make your escape?" |
12051 | Or,replied Dick Sand,"he does know it, and then he----""But how should Negoro know this country? |
12051 | Perhaps we may try to approach than-- those hissing antelopes? |
12051 | Shall we not light a large fire for the night? |
12051 | So,asked Captain Hull,"it has never been known to whom this dog had belonged, nor whence it came?" |
12051 | That is so,replied Harris,"and meanwhile----""Meanwhile?" |
12051 | That vessel which went ashore on the coast of Angola? |
12051 | The camp is abandoned? |
12051 | The desert of Atacama? |
12051 | The horse? 12051 The money stolen from on board the''Pilgrim?''" |
12051 | The name of this man? |
12051 | The sea? |
12051 | The ship which carried you was run into? |
12051 | The ships which go from Chili to Peru, do they not pass, then, in sight of this coast? |
12051 | Then it was chance that led this ship to the coast of Africa? |
12051 | Then there are serpents? |
12051 | Then was Samuel Vernon alone when he left the sea- coast of the Congo? |
12051 | Then we will go to see him again? |
12051 | Then what is that cape? |
12051 | Then what is your idea, Dick? |
12051 | Then who commands on board now? |
12051 | Then you are going to write to him, mother? |
12051 | Then you are not slaves? |
12051 | Then you do not count on bringing the''Pilgrim''to San Francisco? |
12051 | Then you have never been on the coast of South America? |
12051 | Then, was the crew able to jump on board the ship which struck the''Waldeck''? |
12051 | Tigers, then? |
12051 | Very strange, indeed,murmured Mrs. Weldon; then, continuing,"what is Negoro doing?" |
12051 | We should be very near the farm,replied Harris, hesitating,"and I do not recognize----""You are then astray?" |
12051 | Well, Tom? |
12051 | Well, at what point of the coast shall we arrive, my dear Dick? |
12051 | Well, what is to be done? |
12051 | Well? |
12051 | What are you doing there? |
12051 | What can be the matter with that dog? |
12051 | What did you ask Dingo then? |
12051 | What do I see there? |
12051 | What do they wish to do with my companions and me? |
12051 | What do you conclude from it? |
12051 | What do you expect me to look for, if not insects? |
12051 | What do you mean? |
12051 | What does he want? 12051 What has happened to them?" |
12051 | What have I seen there, a quarter of a mile off? |
12051 | What is it then? |
12051 | What is it, old Tom? |
12051 | What is that?'' |
12051 | What is the matter with Dingo? |
12051 | What is the matter, Dick? |
12051 | What is the matter? |
12051 | What is the matter? |
12051 | What is this hexapode? |
12051 | What must be done? |
12051 | What must be done? |
12051 | What then, has friend Dick promised? |
12051 | What will I do with them? |
12051 | What will become of you if your strength gives out? 12051 What will you do?" |
12051 | What would you have? |
12051 | What''s the good? |
12051 | What''s the matter? |
12051 | What, then? |
12051 | Where are they, the large beasts? |
12051 | Where are we? 12051 Where can he be?" |
12051 | Where is it situated? |
12051 | Where? |
12051 | Where? |
12051 | Which will you sell? |
12051 | Which, then, comrade? |
12051 | Who can be there? |
12051 | Who is this Negoro? |
12051 | Who is this man to whom you will pretend to sell me? |
12051 | Why has he brought us to Kazounde? |
12051 | Will we set out again? |
12051 | Will you permit me to kiss him on his pretty cheeks? |
12051 | With my friend Dick-- and Hercules-- and old Tom? |
12051 | Without doubt,replied Dick Sand;"but where will this level stop?" |
12051 | Would he really separate me from my child? |
12051 | Yes; what is your advice? |
12051 | You are English? |
12051 | You are alone in Kazounde, mistress; alone, in the power of the''Pilgrim''s''old cook-- absolutely alone, do you understand? |
12051 | You are in great grief, mother? |
12051 | You have done all that depended on you, Dick? |
12051 | You have heard? |
12051 | You have seen the land? |
12051 | You refuse? |
12051 | You see nothing yet, Dick? |
12051 | You see something, Jack? |
12051 | You think yourself so strong that you would be dangerous to these courageous insects? 12051 You wish to speak to me?" |
12051 | After all, the African savages have no pockets, and how could they have any? |
12051 | Ah, why had he hesitated to do it? |
12051 | Am I, then, changed to that extent? |
12051 | And meanwhile, what interest could Harris have in deceiving them? |
12051 | And now, why these odious actions? |
12051 | And still, did he not ask his friend, Alvez, to renew his supply of brandy just exhausted by large libations? |
12051 | And why not my glasses? |
12051 | And you think, Dick, that he is in league with Negoro?" |
12051 | And, meanwhile, could suspicion rest on any other? |
12051 | And, meanwhile, what could they hope for the fugitive? |
12051 | And, moreover, how explain that Negoro would venture alone into that unknown country? |
12051 | And, now, how are these various business affairs regulated between buyers and sellers? |
12051 | And, seeing that Dick Sand did not reply:"What, captain, do you no longer recognize your old cook? |
12051 | Are we ready, Howik?" |
12051 | Are you willing?" |
12051 | As to Dick Sand''s feelings, what pen could do them justice? |
12051 | At this place was the_ manticore_ going to clear the enclosure with a bound, and put a wall between its adorer and itself? |
12051 | Benedict?" |
12051 | Benedict?" |
12051 | Benedict?" |
12051 | Benedict?" |
12051 | Benedict?" |
12051 | Besides, what good would it do? |
12051 | But Mrs. Weldon, this mother, and this young child-- what would the wretch do with them? |
12051 | But are we here in some southern province of Peru, that is to say on the least inhabited part which borders upon the pampas? |
12051 | But does he still live? |
12051 | But had they become so by use? |
12051 | But how, then, explain the break in the branches at such a height? |
12051 | But might not the ant- hill be torn from the ground and overthrown by the inundation, to the extreme danger of those within it? |
12051 | But on what part of the African continent had an inexplicable fatality landed him? |
12051 | But refuge, where would they seek it in this low desert, without a tree, without a bush? |
12051 | But the figures of these odious exportations, are they still considerable? |
12051 | But then, how find Mrs. Weldon again? |
12051 | But then, if Cousin Benedict had escaped voluntarily, why had he not let her into the secret of his escape? |
12051 | But then, what had Alvez done with him? |
12051 | But then, where would he search? |
12051 | But was it not too much to ask from the most enthusiastic of entomologists? |
12051 | But was that miracle to be hoped for? |
12051 | But was there any probability that Dr. Livingstone would soon visit that part of the continent? |
12051 | But what could Dick Sand and his companions do against a hundred Africans, who surrounded them on all sides? |
12051 | But what could be Harris''s secret end? |
12051 | But what could be done to ward off that contingency? |
12051 | But what could she attempt? |
12051 | But what did this miserable Portuguese intend? |
12051 | But what happened after the crime? |
12051 | But what matter, at present? |
12051 | But what, then, was this miserable man? |
12051 | But who was carrying the still sick child? |
12051 | But who will tell him?" |
12051 | But why be astonished at the sight of such myriads? |
12051 | But, are there not other four- footed wanderers, that the sight of a fire would help to keep at a distance?" |
12051 | But, had it been evacuated for some time, or had the voracious newroptera but just quitted it? |
12051 | But, then, that land, had it disappeared? |
12051 | But, then, was that sufficient? |
12051 | But, then, what was Cousin Benedict? |
12051 | But, to effect this return to the coast, should they take the road already passed over? |
12051 | Could fishermen let such an occasion escape them? |
12051 | Could not Queen Moini''s caprice prevent them? |
12051 | Could the little party escape during its return to the coast? |
12051 | Could they, without running the danger spoken of by Dick Sand, pierce that hole? |
12051 | Could you yet explain to me, how, wishing to land on the American coast, you have ended by arriving in Angola, where you are?" |
12051 | Cousin Benedict,"asked Mrs. Weldon,"do you keep well?" |
12051 | Dick--?" |
12051 | Did he not or would he not understand the question put to him? |
12051 | Did he perceive that his auditors, propped up in their cells, had gradually fallen asleep during his entomological lecture? |
12051 | Did he, then, know this country? |
12051 | Did it flee before the"Pilgrim?" |
12051 | Did she not think herself on hospitable ground? |
12051 | Did the clouds cease to rise on the eastern horizon and veil the tropical sun? |
12051 | Did the dog then know and recognize the master cook? |
12051 | Did they vanish before the exorcisms of this new wizard? |
12051 | Dingo, did Hercules save our captain?" |
12051 | Distance for distance, would it not be better worth while to seek to reach the nearest town, either north or south?" |
12051 | Do you wish to remain here one day or two? |
12051 | Does it come from Hercules? |
12051 | Does it not seem to you also-- which would confirm my idea-- that that spout contains more water than condensed vapor? |
12051 | During all this time what had become of Cousin Benedict? |
12051 | For what fate am I reserved? |
12051 | Great God, where would we be without him? |
12051 | Had Cousin Benedict devoted himself to the study of the vertebrates, mammals, birds, reptiles, and fishes? |
12051 | Had he been a sailor and known so well how to hide the fact? |
12051 | Had he had time to recognize what the roof covered, and was he going to alarm his comrades? |
12051 | Had he incarcerated him in one of the barracks of the large square? |
12051 | Had he received any instruction? |
12051 | Had he refused to believe that his son and she had perished at sea? |
12051 | Had he remarked Harris''s disappearance? |
12051 | Had he some interest in putting the second compass out of service also? |
12051 | Had he then lost his way, and on this dark night was he vainly seeking the way to the grotto? |
12051 | Had the faithful animal perished in some fruitless attempt? |
12051 | Harris?" |
12051 | Harris?" |
12051 | Has misfortune overtaken it or Hercules? |
12051 | Has there not existed a parrot, worth a hundred gold crowns, that recited the Apostle''s Creed to the cardinal, his master, without missing a word? |
12051 | He would have started for the African coast, and, once there, who can tell to what dangers, to what treachery, he would have been exposed? |
12051 | How can so much electricity be collected in the clouds? |
12051 | How can such quantities of vapor be accumulated? |
12051 | How could they?" |
12051 | How has it been able to find me again? |
12051 | How has the faithful animal, that we believed dead, met either the one or the other? |
12051 | How is it restored to me? |
12051 | How many will have ceased to suffer before then? |
12051 | How then has she arrived here?" |
12051 | How, then, had he not yet made the coast? |
12051 | How? |
12051 | Hull, that he would hesitate to embark on the''Pilgrim,''in company with his wife and child?" |
12051 | Hull?" |
12051 | I cannot-- unless the indications of the compass have been false? |
12051 | If Dingo had been able to penetrate the ranks of the caravan once, why did not Hercules let him try it a second time? |
12051 | In bending over him in his rage, had Negoro slightly loosened the bands that till then had rendered all movement impossible? |
12051 | In case the bad weather should oblige him to seek a port of refuge, what should he do, because that coast was to him absolutely unknown? |
12051 | In fact, might it not have been Dingo?" |
12051 | In order to live I had to follow all trades--""Even the trade of an honest man, Negoro?" |
12051 | In seeing him thus, in observing these brave, devoted blacks, wife and mother, she could not yet despair; and, besides, why was she abandoned? |
12051 | In this condition, how could it avoid the shock which threatened it? |
12051 | Is he going to come?" |
12051 | Is it a plan of escape that it brings me? |
12051 | Is it due to the presence of a marine herb?" |
12051 | Is it necessary to say now that Mrs. Weldon had found no help in her large child, Cousin Benedict? |
12051 | Is it not a mere supposition on your part?" |
12051 | Is she in the central group? |
12051 | It is not impossible to find on board some specimen of----""Cousin Benedict,"said Mrs. Weldon,"do you then slander Captain Hull? |
12051 | It is then by the Portuguese''s orders that he acts and treats me differently from my companions in misfortune? |
12051 | May he not have put it out of order?" |
12051 | May it not be that he has followed our steps?" |
12051 | May we not call these beings"unfortunates,"who were treated only as domestic animals? |
12051 | Must he wait or suddenly announce the probable result of the situation, after ascertaining the condition of things? |
12051 | Must he, then, renounce all hope of finding them at Kazounde? |
12051 | Must not Negoro desire, as they all desired, to land on the American coast as soon as possible? |
12051 | My poor Dingo, can you escape them? |
12051 | Negoro, doubtless, will prefer to remain here?" |
12051 | No human succor could come to him except from outside, and whence could it come to him? |
12051 | Now, would they not see it, and at their cries might not the whole village be alarmed? |
12051 | Once arrived at that top, why would it not descend to the base? |
12051 | One would think he scented in the distance----""Negoro, is it not so?" |
12051 | Or does it only give me news of those dear to me? |
12051 | Our poor ship is lost, and the tempest can no longer reach us?" |
12051 | Should he bring me another word from Hercules? |
12051 | Should they envy him his fate? |
12051 | So, you have been taken?" |
12051 | Strong as he was, what would become of him in that inhospitable country, where hunger, solitude, savage beasts, natives, all were against him? |
12051 | Tack about? |
12051 | That America, on which his vessel would go to pieces, perhaps, where was it, if it was not there? |
12051 | Then what chance had the prisoners in the ant- hill to escape the most terrible of deaths, death by slow asphyxia? |
12051 | Then, continuing:"Whence came the''Waldeck?''" |
12051 | Then, did Negoro know this point of the continent where the winds were driving the"Pilgrim?" |
12051 | Then, how should hunters of elephants and fishers of whalers feel? |
12051 | These arrangements made, Dick Sand was going to set out, when Mrs. Weldon said to him:"You do not fear being carried away by the falls, Dick?" |
12051 | This river which he was seeking, which he hoped to find, would it conduct them to the shore with more safety, and with less fatigue? |
12051 | To what plank of safety will not an unfortunate being cling? |
12051 | To what species of ant was due, then, the prodigious style of architecture of these cones? |
12051 | Was Cousin Benedict wrong? |
12051 | Was he capable of contriving this odious plot which had thrown the ship on the coast of Africa? |
12051 | Was he not mistaken? |
12051 | Was it a man? |
12051 | Was it an animal? |
12051 | Was it one of those"right"whales, which the fishermen of the Northern Ocean seek most particularly? |
12051 | Was it possible to make that hole large enough for Dingo to put in its head? |
12051 | Was it to the mollusks, from the cephalopodes to the bryozoans, that he had given his preference, and had malacology no more secrets for him? |
12051 | Was it, as Dick Sand must suppose, on the shore of Peru? |
12051 | Was it, then, Negoro''s interest for the magnetic needle to return to its true direction? |
12051 | Was it, then, the true pampas of which Harris had spoken? |
12051 | Was old Tom strong enough to support such misery? |
12051 | Was she then going to take flight again, and must they take up this interminable pursuit again on the surface of the waters? |
12051 | Was the return made under the same circumstances?" |
12051 | Was, then, the cone abandoned? |
12051 | We were asleep----""But the men of the''Waldeck''--what has become of them?" |
12051 | Weldon?" |
12051 | Weldon?" |
12051 | Weldon?" |
12051 | Weldon?" |
12051 | Well, why should not a dog do as much if he took it into his head? |
12051 | Were these, then, the"ais,"or some other tardi- graves, whose feet had thus marked the soil? |
12051 | Were they talking of him and his companions, so treacherously joined to the persons in the convoy? |
12051 | Were they then addressed to some sailors or passengers imprisoned in this ship? |
12051 | Were they then shut up under their tents, so as to let the storm pass, or was the camp abandoned? |
12051 | What could Dick Sand do that had not been already done at the first signal from the captain? |
12051 | What could Dick Sand imagine if, in fact, neither Mrs. Weldon nor her enemies were there? |
12051 | What could he expect from a man who had tried to make him take giraffes for ostriches? |
12051 | What could that interest be? |
12051 | What did Dick Sand know of this country where treason had thrown him? |
12051 | What did the head cook intend to do there? |
12051 | What does Harris and Negoro want to do with them? |
12051 | What fatality then had brought that whale in the"Pilgrim''s"course? |
12051 | What future, then, awaited the survivors of the"Pilgrim?" |
12051 | What had happened since the beginning of this frightful tempest? |
12051 | What had he done? |
12051 | What has become of Hercules? |
12051 | What have you done to that animal?" |
12051 | What is he waiting for?" |
12051 | What is the current coin? |
12051 | What is this letter going to tell me? |
12051 | What is your opinion on this subject, Dick?" |
12051 | What matter? |
12051 | What must we do?" |
12051 | What passed within him? |
12051 | What resolution was he going to take? |
12051 | What shall we say of Dick Sand and of Hercules? |
12051 | What should he do with a contrary wind? |
12051 | What still greater fatality had urged the unfortunate Captain Hull, generally so wise, to risk everything in order to complete his cargo? |
12051 | What to do? |
12051 | What was still going on, as that coast, whether it should prove salvation or destruction, did not appear? |
12051 | What was this Alvez, the real sovereign under the reign of an imbruted negro, whose vices he had developed and served? |
12051 | What would become of Mrs. Weldon and her companions, if they did not find a shelter? |
12051 | What would become of her? |
12051 | What would have become of you, alone with that wicked man, in whom you can not have confidence? |
12051 | What would his future be? |
12051 | What would they do with them? |
12051 | What? |
12051 | What?" |
12051 | When he should once make the land, how should he act, if he did not encounter some pilot, some one who knew the coast? |
12051 | When one falls, why get up again? |
12051 | Where can we be?" |
12051 | Where was she? |
12051 | Where were they leading them? |
12051 | Where would they take them, if not to Kazounde? |
12051 | Where? |
12051 | Where? |
12051 | Where? |
12051 | Who could have given such orders, if not Harris or Negoro? |
12051 | Who had merited his hatred? |
12051 | Who has written it? |
12051 | Who knows but he has his reasons for avoiding us forever?" |
12051 | Who would believe that, instead of sacks of coffee or casks of sugar, they were talking of human beings to export like merchandise? |
12051 | Who, then, except Negoro, had been able to visit the ship before them and to lay hands on Captain Hull''s and Mrs. Weldon''s reserve? |
12051 | Why did he take that direction? |
12051 | Why had they not been able to follow Hercules in his flight? |
12051 | Why such care on the part of such a man as Negoro? |
12051 | Will not the eyes of the condemned seek to seize any ray of hope, no matter how vague? |
12051 | Will they abandon them? |
12051 | Will you find that I trot too hard?" |
12051 | Would he not fall on the road like old Nan? |
12051 | Would he not soon regret his companion''s fate? |
12051 | Would he succeed in saying those words? |
12051 | Would her old servant ever see her again? |
12051 | Would instinct be sufficient to explain such miracles of fidelity? |
12051 | Would it come from Mrs. Weldon? |
12051 | Would it dare force an entrance into the camp? |
12051 | Would it last eight days or a month? |
12051 | Would not Heaven come to their assistance? |
12051 | Would not the situation be aggravated by it? |
12051 | Would the hexapode ascend again beyond the line of the eyes, or would it descend below? |
12051 | Would the_ manticore_ come to the ground again to rest, after having traced a few capricious circles around Cousin Benedict''s bald head? |
12051 | Would they ever reach there, through the most unhealthy and the most dangerous countries of Central Africa? |
12051 | Yes, Negoro was an evil being, but must they conclude from that that he was a criminal? |
12051 | Yes, my child, what would have become of you?" |
12051 | You are afraid of me, my good little man?" |
12051 | You do not seem to be of Peruvian origin?" |
12051 | You understand?" |
12051 | You will come to my help, old Tom?" |
12051 | You would be very glad to see him again?" |
12051 | asked Mrs. Weldon, giving Dick Sand a look which was only understood by him;"and if it is not he, who, then, is it?" |
12051 | but what?" |
12051 | cried Mrs. Weldon,"did you, then, hope to be able to classify it in the order of the dipters or the hymenopters?" |
12051 | is it not more likely to be some marine animal-- some mammifer of great size?" |
12051 | my boy,"replied Captain Hull,"little grains of vermicelli, of flour, of fecula powder, do they not make very good porridge? |
12051 | nobody to speak to?" |
12051 | or has she perished during that frightful night? |
12051 | ought I to praise God? |
12051 | said Harris,"you do not want me to embrace you? |
12051 | said Mrs. Weldon,"Dick Sand has told you that we have not seen Negoro again?" |
12051 | said the American,"the Portuguese, the ship''s cook of whom you have already spoken to me?" |
12051 | what can that be?" |
12051 | what will become of him?" |
12051 | what''s the matter?" |
12051 | where was his poor friend, Dick Sand-- he who had brought him so high up in the"Pilgrim''s"masts? |
12051 | while waiting, do you want a good fruit to take away your thirst?" |
12051 | why not, my friends?" |
12051 | you are not an entomologist, sir?" |
12051 | you wish to have this whale, my boy? |
