39808 | What has that to do with it? |
39808 | What have you done? |
39808 | Before I had seen her a few minutes she remarked:"I suppose you do n''t remember me, Lord Tredegar?" |
39808 | He got on very well, as she thought, and one day, meeting his professor, she said,"Oh, Professor, do you think my son will ever learn to draw?" |
39808 | I have put this question to myself many times in the last month or so--"What does it all mean? |
39808 | I said,"What have they found out about you?" |
39808 | I saw in a newspaper which does not hold the same opinions as I do, the question,"What on earth is Lord Tredegar made a Viscount for?" |
39808 | I was hunting in the Midland Counties and I asked,"Where is Tom?" |
39808 | One is''What is Home Rule?'' |
39808 | Remarking to the young lady that the martial air appealed to an old soldier, she said,"Why, Lord Tredegar, were you ever in the Army?" |
39808 | So why,"said they,"do you want to have more knowledge?" |
39808 | What are your charges for telling me what I can call anyone without getting into trouble?" |
39808 | What have I ever done to deserve this great tribute?" |

16627 | 27. Who that has sound reason can help seeing that the Divine is not divisible? |
16627 | 48. Who that is capable of discerning the essential character of love can not see this? |
16627 | Also that one who from justice does what is just and from what is right does right, has a conscience? |
16627 | Also that one whose life is good will enter the society of angels, and will there see, hear, and speak like a man? |
16627 | And because they are such, they are unwilling to hear anything about faith, saying, What is faith? |
16627 | And do they not grow warm in the measure in which this affection grows warm? |
16627 | But when you let your thought down into the natural lumen which derives from space, will not these things be seen as paradoxes? |
16627 | Can any man of unimpaired reason fail to see that these doings of the bees are not from the natural world? |
16627 | Can anything natural regard use as an end and dispose uses into series and forms? |
16627 | Can you conceive of it as something ethereal, or as something flaming? |
16627 | Do not thought, speech, and action, grow cold in the measure in which the affection which is from love grows cold? |
16627 | Does not affection also beam forth from the face, and there exhibit a type of itself? |
16627 | Does not the body do whatever the mind thinks and wills? |
16627 | Does not thought make the tongue speak, and affection together with thought make the body act? |
16627 | For they say, How can the spirit, when it is spirit, be the man, and how can the soul, when it is soul, be the man? |
16627 | For what is it to act from love without the understanding? |
16627 | For what is it to love self alone, instead of loving some one outside of self by whom one may be loved in return? |
16627 | For what is substance without form? |
16627 | From this who can not see what correspondence is between things spiritual and things natural? |
16627 | How can love and wisdom, which are life from the Lord, act upon what is not a subject, or upon what has no substantial existence? |
16627 | Is it anything? |
16627 | Is it consistent with reason to think that the body acts from obedience simply because the mind so wills? |
16627 | Is it not known by everyone from common perception that a man whose life is good is saved, but that a man whose life is bad is condemned? |
16627 | Is not affection, regarded in itself, spiritual, and the change of countenance, called the expression, natural? |
16627 | Is not the brain, where thought comes forth, complete and organized in every part? |
16627 | Is not this evident also in every living creature, even the smallest? |
16627 | Is not this separation rather than conjunction? |
16627 | Is the body, then, anything but obedience to its mind; and can the body be such unless the mind is in its derivatives in the body? |
16627 | Or how can He, from His place, speak the word, and as soon as it is spoken, creation follow? |
16627 | Reason affirms it: for who can not will and do what he thinks? |
16627 | Think of wisdom, and place it outside of man- is it anything? |
16627 | This a man of discernment can perceive when it is said: If you remove the affection which is from love, can you think anything, or do anything? |
16627 | What has that sun, from which nature springs, in common with a government that vies with and resembles the government of heaven? |
16627 | What is a thing that you do not see? |
16627 | What, in fact, is love unless there be something loved? |
16627 | What, then, would be the result if an angel were even to ascend toward the sun, and come into its fire? |
16627 | Who does not know that affection and thought are spiritual, therefore that all things of affection and thought are spiritual? |
16627 | Who does not know that evils and falsities of every kind can be confirmed? |
16627 | Who does not look before himself to God when he prays, to whatever quarter his face may be turned? |
16627 | Who in the world at the present day is aware that this love in itself is of such a nature? |
16627 | Who otherwise can retain it in himself? |
16627 | Will any one venture to deny that life has its origin where the fibers have their origin? |
16627 | Without organic forms, how can thought inhere; and from thought inherent in nothing can one speak? |
16627 | also that a plurality of Infinites, of Uncreates, of Omnipotents, and of Gods, is impossible? |
16627 | and if you let it down far, will you not reject them? |
16627 | and what is charity? |
16627 | is it not doing? |
16627 | is it not wisdom? |
36759 | An angel beside_ her_? |
36759 | And did she give you one? |
36759 | Can I give up my beautiful face, and become a poor little drudge, like Daisy? |
36759 | Carry her home to her cave; why did you bring her to me? |
36759 | Could n''t you do any better, Daisy, than this,she said,"for your mother''s friend and yours? |
36759 | Did he say any thing about me? |
36759 | Down where? |
36759 | Have you-- have you? 36759 How could I know that?" |
36759 | How could they? |
36759 | Is this all your gratitude, Susan? 36759 Look where? |
36759 | My sister? 36759 O, no-- what could tire him, Maud? |
36759 | Silly girl, where are your spectacles? |
36759 | Was she handsomer than I? |
36759 | Well, what shall I give you for risking your precious life? |
36759 | Well,said the shrill voice of the dame,"will you give me back my glasses now, and keep your tears?" |
36759 | Were her eyes black, or blue like mine? 36759 What can this rock be made of?" |
36759 | What dame? |
36759 | What folly is the meddlesome old dame about, I wonder? |
36759 | What more can he require of me? |
36759 | What was the man''s name? 36759 What''s that-- what''s that?" |
36759 | What''s that? |
36759 | What, ours-- up in heaven? |
36759 | Where was it? |
36759 | Who wants a house that every one else can enjoy as much as we, and a father that is not ashamed to call every dirty beggar his child? |
36759 | Why, Maud, what is this world but a great house that God has built for us? 36759 Why, am I not the same Daisy? |
36759 | Why, have you found so many wicked people, my poor child? |
36759 | Why? |
36759 | Am I changing to a fairy, like the dame?" |
36759 | And are you going to kill your child, out here, with the cold and damp, because your husband''s gone? |
36759 | And can not He who made the lightning govern it? |
36759 | And could you find my hut? |
36759 | And if the beautiful smiling vision was real, why did it always float away? |
36759 | And shall not Maud have some? |
36759 | And what kind of dresses did they wear?" |
36759 | And when you found your sister lying half dead by the roadside,--as you would have been but for my care,--what were you willing to do for her? |
36759 | Are you not ashamed, when I am so hungry and tired, to give me such mean food?" |
36759 | But how many stars do you suppose there are?" |
36759 | But the dame quickly silenced her by asking,"Who has fed, and clothed, and taken care of you and all your kith and kin? |
36759 | Could I find one of the paths, and so climb up to heaven, and find the beautiful Christ I am to love?" |
36759 | Daisy looked up at him then, and asked,"But will you take them away from my mother? |
36759 | Did he have wings?" |
36759 | Did n''t the shop- keeper tell us, at the fair, that one little speck of a pearl cost more than my new gown? |
36759 | Do n''t you know that, when Maud is drowned, there will be no one to separate you, and, as long as she lives, she will not let you be married?" |
36759 | Do you dare tell me that she would marry a cowboy?" |
36759 | Do you remember what the dame said, when she placed the spectacles on little Daisy''s breast? |
36759 | Does he think more of them than he does of us?" |
36759 | For the great God is her Father, and yours, and mine; she is my sister: should I not feel her grief?''" |
36759 | Has the dame been here again?" |
36759 | Have my glasses been of so little use that you put them in your pocket, and choose rather to look through tears?" |
36759 | Have you thought yet what can be the fairy''s name? |
36759 | If God can see through walls, ca n''t we, when we are looking after him?" |
36759 | If the flowers have the same God with us, why do they always look so happy, and beautiful, and young? |
36759 | If your brothers and sisters or parents die, whether by accident or sickness, are you sure that they would leave you such a comforter as Daisy had? |
36759 | May I try?" |
36759 | Now, what of the people?" |
36759 | O, why do not all people find out what a cheap comfort it is to help each other? |
36759 | Suppose we are wiser; why ca n''t we live as they do, mother, and think about God and heaven, instead of always ourselves?" |
36759 | Then Maud would toss her head, and ask,"What is mother but an old woodcutter''s wife, that has worked, perhaps, in my father''s kitchen?" |
36759 | Were any of them handsomer than the rest? |
36759 | What did he say to you?" |
36759 | What shall we name her? |
36759 | Who ever saw God? |
36759 | Who feeds the flowers, mother?" |
36759 | Who gave you the gown on your back and the beauty in your cheeks? |
36759 | Why did n''t you make the child wear my gift?" |
36759 | Yet I may possibly save her; shall I go or stay?" |
36759 | You would not tease a poor crazy man, I hope; and why, then, tease your brother or sister when their senses leave them for a little while? |
36759 | are you sure? |
36759 | do n''t you know I am hungry after all this work? |
36759 | is it you?" |
36759 | then it was I who tired him, and made him sorrowful,"thought Maud; then said, aloud,"But, Daisy, are you sure he took your hand? |
13407 | Among such phenomena,he asks,"how can we draw the line of demarkation, and say,''Here the physical ends, and there the physiological begins''? |
13407 | ''But,''you ask,''beyond all of this of which you have told me, what is there-- what is the Centre of it All?'' |
13407 | ( But where is what I started for so long ago? |
13407 | And if so, what information can you give regarding them? |
13407 | And in our bodies is the Will at work? |
13407 | And where can such a power be located if not in the form itself? |
13407 | And why is it yet unfound?)" |
13407 | And, how does It create? |
13407 | Are you doing this with your reason or with your personal will? |
13407 | But then you cry,''But what am I-- poor mortal thing-- lost among all this inconceivable greatness?'' |
13407 | But then, you ask us, from whence comes Force, Matter, and Finite Mind? |
13407 | But what is the Centre? |
13407 | But_ are_ they lost? |
13407 | Can anyone really believe this of The Absolute-- playing like a child, with men and women, worlds and suns, as Its blocks and tin- soldiers? |
13407 | Can it be Matter? |
13407 | Can the germ think, and plan, and move, and grow into a chicken? |
13407 | Can we conceive the Infinite Being as exercising the finite faculty of"dreaming"--is not this childish? |
13407 | Can you accept it? |
13407 | Can you not see the Will behind the curtain here? |
13407 | Can you think of Energy apart from material manifestation? |
13407 | Did you do it with your intellect? |
13407 | Did you never"lose yourself"in thought, or"forget yourself"in an idea? |
13407 | Do you grasp this idea? |
13407 | Do you know just what this Self- Consciousness is, and how it differs from the Physical Consciousness of the lower animals? |
13407 | Do you see the absurdity? |
13407 | Do you see the difference? |
13407 | Do you see the nature of the Final Question? |
13407 | Do you see this plainly? |
13407 | Do you see this? |
13407 | Does not Metempsychosis give us the only possible key? |
13407 | Does not all advanced research show us that in all Matter and Energy there are evidences of the operation of this"Something like Mind"? |
13407 | Does not all this Teaching seem to you like the repetition of some lesson learned long ago? |
13407 | Does not your mind leap ahead of the lesson, and see what is coming next, long before you have turned the pages? |
13407 | Does the leaf feel less important and real from this discovery? |
13407 | Extension of what? |
13407 | From whence could come such an action- causing Desire? |
13407 | From whom did Plato derive his wonderful thought? |
13407 | From whom did Shakespeare inherit his genius? |
13407 | Has not every bit of it been done without your conscious knowledge? |
13407 | Have you ever been foolish enough to open your soul to the crowd, and have it reveal the sacred Truth that rests there? |
13407 | Have you ever committed the folly of throwing spiritual pearls to material swine? |
13407 | Have you ever known of such a thing? |
13407 | Have you ever looked up its origin and real meaning, as given by the standard authorities? |
13407 | Have you not found yourself placed where you unexpectedly were made the bestower of favors upon some almost unknown persons? |
13407 | Have you not spoken of yourself as having been"wrapped in thought?" |
13407 | How did the plant know direction? |
13407 | How do the buzzards float in the air, and make speed without a motion of the wing? |
13407 | How is it that certain birds are able to fly directly against a strong wind, without visible movement of their wings? |
13407 | How, and Why? |
13407 | How? |
13407 | I said to myself,''What is this? |
13407 | I:"Is this annihilation, as some think? |
13407 | If there is any power not from and of the One, from whence comes such power, for there is nothing else outside of the One? |
13407 | In the first place, what"experience"could be gained by the Absolute and Infinite One? |
13407 | Is it Matter? |
13407 | Is it not like remembering something already learned, rather than the learning of some new truth? |
13407 | Is not this Speculative Metaphysics run wild? |
13407 | Is not this as childish as the childishness of the savage, and barbarians, in their Mumbo- Jumbo conceptions? |
13407 | Let us begin by a consideration of what has been called the"Questions of Questions"--the question:"What is Reality?" |
13407 | Manifesting in various forms, as the diamond, graphite, coal, protoplasm-- is it not entitled to respect? |
13407 | Now what causes this life action? |
13407 | Now what is this tendency? |
13407 | Of what can the Substance of the Infinite be composed? |
13407 | Or is the Will at work there? |
13407 | Passing on to the higher animal life-- how do eggs grow into chickens? |
13407 | Pure Energy? |
13407 | QUESTION 1:_"Are there any Brotherhoods of Advanced Occultists in existence, in harmony with the Yogi Teachings? |
13407 | QUESTION III:"_ Does the Yogi Philosophy teach that there is a place corresponding to the''Heavens''of the various religions? |
13407 | QUESTION V:"_ What is that which Occultists call''an Astral Shell,''or similar name? |
13407 | Space? |
13407 | Surely this looks like"Life,"does it not? |
13407 | The Infinite All could not become anything more than It already was-- so why the wish for expression? |
13407 | The immediate force may seem to be a mechanical force, but what is back of that force-- what is the essence of the force? |
13407 | Then how can this work of Creation be accomplished, in view of these difficulties which are apparent even to our finite minds? |
13407 | Then is it Pure Energy? |
13407 | Then this"substance"must be Mind? |
13407 | Then what is Real about ME, you may ask-- surely I have a vivid consciousness of Reality-- is this merely an illusion, or shadow? |
13407 | Then who else than the Infinite caused the Illusion, and why the necessity? |
13407 | Then, is it Force or Energy? |
13407 | To define a thing is to identify it with something else-- and where is the something else with which to identify the Infinite? |
13407 | To what end would such a wish tend? |
13407 | To what state or place does The Path lead? |
13407 | Well may it say to us:"Hast thou been so long time with me, and hast thou not known me?" |
13407 | Well, after a time Duhamel shook the dirt and growing beans out of the cylinder, and what did he find? |
13407 | Well, what is this"substance"of the Absolute? |
13407 | Were you not attracted to these studies, in the first place, by a feeling that you had known it all before, somewhere, somehow? |
13407 | What built you up from single cell to maturity? |
13407 | What could It expect to gain and learn, that it did not already know and possess? |
13407 | What does it all mean? |
13407 | What gives you the greatest Satisfaction and Content in Life? |
13407 | What have we done? |
13407 | What have we really done? |
13407 | What is the explanation of the movements of certain microscopic creatures who lack organs of movement? |
13407 | What is the power in the germ of the egg? |
13407 | What would be accomplished or gained? |
13407 | Which is the greater"miracle"--the Moneron or Man? |
13407 | Who has not been seized at times with the consciousness of a mighty"oldness"of soul? |
13407 | Who has not experienced the consciousness of having_ felt the thing before_--_having thought it some time in the dim past? |
13407 | Who has not gazed at some old painting, or piece of statuary, with the sense of having seen it all before? |
13407 | Who has not had these experiences-- we ask_? |
13407 | Who has not met persons for the first time, whose presence awakened memories of a past lying far back in the misty ages of long ago? |
13407 | Who has not witnessed new scenes that appear old, very old? |
13407 | Who or what exists outside of the One that can manifest even the faintest degree of power of any kind? |
13407 | Whose force, energy, power and motion? |
13407 | Why should the Infinite"play"?--does It need amusement and"fun"like a child? |
13407 | Why? |
13407 | Why? |
13407 | Why? |
13407 | Willis:"But what a mystery this erring mind? |
13407 | what''s that? |
4349 | Is happiness truly as happy as people imagine? |
4349 | Is that all? |
4349 | After all, what is a humble life? |
4349 | And are not almost all the morals, and heroism, and virtue of man summed up in that single choice? |
4349 | And besides, what are the joys to which we bid this somewhat affected farewell? |
4349 | And do you remember, too, that the hour of separation was upon us, and that the arrival of the last boat of all was to be our signal for departure? |
4349 | And further, what right have we thus to sum up an entire existence in the one hour of death? |
4349 | And how should you know, if you have not loved them and lived in their midst, as this soul has loved and lived? |
4349 | And is it not the first duty of those who are happy to tell of their gladness to others? |
4349 | And is not moral suffering the most tyrannical weapon in the armoury of destiny? |
4349 | And is there a thing in this world can be more reassuring, or nearer to us, more profoundly human, than an idea of justice? |
4349 | And though the body may often be powerless to add to its strength, can this ever be true of the soul? |
4349 | And truly, can we imagine that an event shall turn into tragedy between men who have earnestly striven to gain knowledge of self? |
4349 | And truly, viewed from without, what life could be more dreary and colourless, more futile and icily cold, than that of Emily Bronte? |
4349 | And was Eponina''s love other than a sudden lightning flash from this life of the soul, come to her, all unconscious and unprepared? |
4349 | And what alien power can expel from our soul a feeling and thought that we hurl not our selves from its throne? |
4349 | And when hesitation is conscientious, does it not often possess all the elements of duty? |
4349 | And when his wisdom at length has revealed the profounder joys, will it not be in all unconsciousness that he renounces those of lesser worth? |
4349 | And yet, are not joys to be met with on the highways of life that are greater than any misfortune, more momentous even than death? |
4349 | And yet, was not Cato''s idea far greater than the disturbance, or death, that ensued? |
4349 | And, in the first place, why this disdain of to- day? |
4349 | Are we not almost teaching happiness if we do only speak of it; invoking it, if we let no day pass without pronouncing its name? |
4349 | Are we not contending with troubles and doubts of our own? |
4349 | Are we wiser than he as we waver betwixt the rights of human reason and those that circumstance claims? |
4349 | But are we not saddening ourselves, and learning to sadden others, if we refuse to accept all the happiness offered to man? |
4349 | But can the fact that disease is, unhappily, only too prevalent, render it wrong for us ever to speak of health? |
4349 | But how shall the sage, to whom happiness never has come, be aware that wisdom is the one thing alone that happiness neither can sadden nor weary? |
4349 | But if happiness lie yonder side of the wall, must despair and disaster of necessity dwell on the other? |
4349 | But if it be not our reason that chooses what suffering shall bring us, whereby is the choice then made? |
4349 | But if we can scarcely believe that"happiness in crime"be possible, have we more warrant for faith in the"unhappiness of virtue"? |
4349 | But is there a destiny in the world empowered to hold such language? |
4349 | But was this blindness inevitable? |
4349 | But what can the wisdom desire that declares itself thus disenchanted? |
4349 | But what may this wisdom be that we rate thus highly? |
4349 | But where is the sage in Oedipus? |
4349 | But where shall we take our stand, when we pass such a life in review, so as best to discover its truth, to judge it, approve it, and love it? |
4349 | Can any connection exist between such as these and a deep- rooted feeling, a boundless love for humanity, an interest time can not stale? |
4349 | Can any man be worthy of your love? |
4349 | Can not destiny be beautiful and complete in itself, without help from without? |
4349 | Can we conceive a situation in life wherein a man who is truly wise and noble can be made to suffer as profoundly as the man who follows evil? |
4349 | Can we live, it matters not where, and love, and hate, listening for no footfall, spurning no creature? |
4349 | Can you conceive Jesus Christ-- nay, any wise man you have happened to meet-- in the midst of the unnatural gloom that overhung Elsinore? |
4349 | Did not Christ Himself weep as He stood before Lazarus''tomb? |
4349 | Did not love and beauty, happiness and adventure-- did not all that we go in search of along the ways of life congregate in Emily Bronte''s heart? |
4349 | Do happiness and sorrow, then, only exist in ourselves, and that even when they seem to come from without? |
4349 | Do we know what we best had abandon, what we best had defend? |
4349 | Do we not all of us know of heroic deeds whose reward has been only misfortune? |
4349 | Do we not feel, even now, that Cato was right? |
4349 | Do you know a novel of Balzac, belonging to the"Celibataires"series, called Pierrette? |
4349 | Do you remember that one ship had a sail that was nearly black, and that she was the last to come in? |
4349 | Does death occupy more space in life than birth? |
4349 | Does it follow that they did the best that was to be done? |
4349 | Does not love bring more goodness to us than thought can ever convey? |
4349 | Does not the man who conceives it his duty to forswear all happiness renounce something as well that, as yet, has not turned into happiness? |
4349 | For, after all, was it not truth your illusion was seeking, assuming it to have been sincere? |
4349 | Have we indeed an inner life that yields not in reality to the outer life; that is no less susceptible of experience and impression? |
4349 | He who moves not a limb is persuaded, perhaps, he is wise; but was this the purpose wherefor mankind was created? |
4349 | He will believe these things much as wise men believe them; but do you think his manner of belief can be the same? |
4349 | If it be your one hope to meet with an ideal soul, would it not be well that you yourself should endeavour to draw nigh to your own ideal? |
4349 | If love has deceived you, do you think that it would have been better for you all your life to regard love as something it is not, and never can be? |
4349 | Is each deed of the hero not always outside the boundary of reason? |
4349 | Is it Tiresias? |
4349 | Is it fitting that the ray of light should desire to alter the lamp whence it springs? |
4349 | Is it necessary that we should conceive ourselves to be superior to the universe? |
4349 | Is it not a mistake to imagine that time only flies swiftly with those whose hearts are devoured by mighty schemes, which fret and fever their life? |
4349 | Is it not preferable sometimes to act in opposition to our thoughts than never dare to act in accord with them? |
4349 | Is it not the paramount duty of every human being to offer to his destiny all that can be offered to the destiny of man? |
4349 | Is it only to those whose conscience still slumbers that events can seem sad or sterile? |
4349 | Is it possible for a man to smile in his hatred and not borrow the smile of love? |
4349 | Is it to reason or wisdom that heroism should be ascribed? |
4349 | Is not every action of Hamlet induced by a fanatical impulse, which tells him that duty consists in revenge alone? |
4349 | Is not something of happiness to be found in our thus being able to pass by the side of our happiness? |
4349 | Is not the happiness that accident brought to the heart of Eponina within reach of every heart, so the will to possess it be there? |
4349 | Is not the very essence of human destiny, stripped of the details that bewilder us, to be found in the most ordinary lives? |
4349 | Is our true destiny to be found in the things which take place about us, or in that which abides in our soul? |
4349 | Is that conceivable? |
4349 | Is the elevation sufficient wherefrom he looks down on the crimes of Elsinore? |
4349 | Is the sage never to suffer? |
4349 | Is the soul self- sufficient; and is it always the soul that decides, a certain height once gained? |
4349 | Is there need of illusion to keep alive our desire for good? |
4349 | Is your own character, at thirty, the same as it was when you were ten years younger? |
4349 | May a happiness not be encountered that the eye can not see? |
4349 | May it be true then that the last word of an existence is only a word that destiny whispers low to what lies most hidden in our heart? |
4349 | Must his father not die, and his mother, his brothers, his sons-- must all these not die like the rest? |
4349 | Must the life be a failure, useless and valueless, that is not as completely happy as it possibly might have been? |
4349 | Must we take back all we have said? |
4349 | Of what avail to punish him? |
4349 | Or might we not say that it is with the roots of the happiness we cherish within as with roots of great trees? |
4349 | Ought we never to hesitate, then? |
4349 | Our thoughts of love, of justice and loyalty, our thoughts of bold ambition-- what are all these but acorns that fall from the oak in the forest? |
4349 | Shall angels stand guard at each highway through which sorrow can pass into man? |
4349 | Shall no storm ever break on the roof of his dwelling, no traps be laid to ensnare him? |
4349 | Shall we begrudge him such happiness, we, whose eyes can see further? |
4349 | Shall we strive for his consciousness of life, for the religion that pleases his soul, for the conception of the universe that justifies his cares? |
4349 | Shall wife and friends never fail him? |
4349 | Should we not invariably act in this life as though the God whom our heart desires with its highest desire were watching our every action? |
4349 | The children have acted unwisely, perhaps, in their exuberance of life; but why should this distress him? |
4349 | The immense forest is doubtless made up of ordinary branches and stems; but is it not vast, is it not as it should be, seeing that it is the forest? |
4349 | To disdain to- day is to declare oneself a stranger, and what can you hope to do in a world where you shall ever pass as a stranger? |
4349 | To such a question as this who shall dare to reply? |
4349 | Was it not truth that it sought? |
4349 | Was not destiny''s hand laid heavy on Paulus Aemilius, who was fully as wise as Timoleon? |
4349 | Was the penitent thief not saved; and that not alone in the Christian sense of the word, but in its fullest, most perfect meaning? |
4349 | We love to throw the dim light of our reason on to our unconsciousness: why not let it play on what we term the unconsciousness of the universe? |
4349 | Were the flames to retreat before such men, were the waters to open and death to hesitate, what were righteousness or heroism then? |
4349 | Were the gods defying the sage, and how would the sage reply? |
4349 | What becomes of the refuge, then, where wisdom keeps watch over happiness? |
4349 | What can be less abnormal than the ocean, which covers two- thirds of the globe; and yet, what is there more vast? |
4349 | What can we say? |
4349 | What is an act of virtue that we should expect such mighty reward? |
4349 | What matter whether the event fall on our neighbour''s roof or our own? |
4349 | What merit in being just ourselves if we be not convinced of the absolute injustice of fate? |
4349 | What shall she do? |
4349 | What soul that were sure of reward could ever claim to be good? |
4349 | What would Christ, all the heroes, have done had their reason not learned to submit? |
4349 | What would she have entrapped in her snares? |
4349 | When shall we cease to believe that death, and not life, is important; that misfortune is greater than happiness? |
4349 | Whence comes this rule that I thus propound? |
4349 | Where could the virtue of man find more everlasting foundation than in the seeming injustice of God?" |
4349 | Where do we find the fatality in"Hamlet,""King Lear,"in"Macbeth"? |
4349 | Where have we learned that death fixes the value of life, and not life that of death? |
4349 | Where shall the virtue of man find more everlasting foundation than in the seeming injustice of God? |
4349 | Where was it written that Laertes, Ophelia, Hamlet, Claudius, Gertrude, should die-- where, save in Hamlet''s pitiful blindness? |
4349 | Where was it, in body or soul, that grim fatality lurked? |
4349 | Where were the hearth, the bed, the table, stool, and basin? |
4349 | Which of us finds not, unsought, many thousands of reasons for sorrow? |
4349 | Which of us, had he to choose, but would rather be Pierrette than Rogron? |
4349 | Who knows? |
4349 | Who that has a heart within him can doubt the truth of her words, or think without longing of the darkness that so great a love illumined? |
4349 | Why conclude, from the fact that Socrates and Antigone met with unhappy ends, that it was their wisdom or virtue brought unhappiness to them? |
4349 | Why harass our soul with endeavour to locate the infinite? |
4349 | Why not speak as though mankind were always on the eve of great certitude, of great joy? |
4349 | Why seek justice where it can not be? |
4349 | Why should disillusion distress you, if you are a man of honest intention, if you strive to be just, and of service; if you seek to be happy and wise? |
4349 | Why should we not say that wisdom is the triumph of reason divine over reason of man? |
4349 | Why should we think that the woman I speak of would have known a more brilliant destiny in Venice, Florence, or Rome? |
4349 | Why speak of destiny when a simple thought had sufficed to arrest all the forces of murder? |
4349 | Why strive of our own free will to enlarge the domain of the inevitable? |
4349 | Why, when we try to sum up a man''s destiny, keep our eyes fixed only on the tears that he shed, and never on the smiles of his joy? |
4349 | Would it have dared to overstep the shining, denouncing barrier that his presence would have imposed, and maintained, in front of the palace gates? |
4349 | Would life be endurable if we did not obey many truths that our reason rejects? |
4349 | Would not the true happiness of virtue be destroyed? |
4349 | Would such an illusion not warp your most significant actions; would it not for many days hide from you some part of the truth that you seek? |
4349 | Would that noble sovereign''s soul have been hopelessly crushed? |
4349 | Would the hero be crushed by his sorrow, or would sorrow acknowledge its master? |
4349 | Would they have contained aught besides the pure light that streams from the lofty soul, as it grows more beautiful still in misfortune? |
4349 | Would you rather live on in the world of your dreams and your errors than in the world that is real? |
4349 | and does it need superhuman effort to recognise that revenge never can be a duty? |
4349 | and is it not of the nature of happiness to be less manifest than misfortune, to become ever less apparent to the eye as it reaches loftier heights? |
4349 | and is our duty most faithfully done when we ourselves are wholly unconscious that this thing that we do is a duty? |
4349 | and is there a truth that can stifle the love of truth in the depths of a loyal heart? |
4349 | and must not thousands and tens of thousands be lost and rot in the lichen ere a single tree spring to life? |
4349 | and where can it be, save in our soul? |
4349 | and yet, who would venture to say that the hero is not wiser by far than the sluggard who quits not his chair because reason forbids him to rise? |
4349 | did not both his sons die, one five days before his triumph in Rome, and the other but three days after? |
4349 | virtue that is happy because it is noble and pure, that is noble and pure because it desires no reward? |
4349 | was bewildered: do we know what ought to be done? |
3728 | A butcher, p''raps, or an undertaker? |
3728 | A dressmaker? 3728 And I suppose he ca n''t divorce her, because of that?" |
3728 | And he''d twigged right enough you were gone on him? |
3728 | And how often were you alone with him? |
3728 | And they never need to pretend anything, I suppose? 3728 And what about his old sketch of a wife?" |
3728 | And what do they teach you at college, miss, eh? |
3728 | And what else was there to say, but yes or no? 3728 And what news have you from your dear mother?" |
3728 | And who IS your ma, my dear? 3728 And you, Laura?" |
3728 | Another like the last? 3728 Arithmetic, eh? |
3728 | Blue? 3728 But as you are here, Robby said I had better stay at home to- day.--Now what would you like to do?" |
3728 | But she''s not a dressmaker, is she? |
3728 | But why not? 3728 Carrie Isaacs, what are you laughing like that for?" |
3728 | Change my room? |
3728 | Cricket''s a lovely game... do n''t you think so? |
3728 | D''you know, Miss Ra... Ra... Rambotham--he made as if he could not get her name out--"d''you know that I''m a great man for scent? |
3728 | DID you see Puggy''s boots again? 3728 DIDN''T she like her bread and butter, poor little thing?" |
3728 | Did n''t I SAY he was a bad''un? |
3728 | Did n''t Mrs. Gurley tell you what to do? |
3728 | Did you do it on purpose? |
3728 | Did you knock this jug over or did Pin? |
3728 | Do any of you know the song? |
3728 | Do n''t you know you''re not ALLOWED to stay upstairs? |
3728 | Do you know it, dear? 3728 Do you mean things like the AIR IN G WITH VARIATIONS? |
3728 | Do you play? |
3728 | Do you think I''m making it for my own pleasure? |
3728 | Do you think that would be better? |
3728 | Do you think trains give you dinners? |
3728 | Do you think you ever will? |
3728 | Embroidery? 3728 Ever seen a gondola?" |
3728 | Evvy, you''re not going to MARRY that horrid man? |
3728 | French? 3728 Getting hungry?" |
3728 | Got anything new in the way of clothes? |
3728 | Gracious!--whatever is it? |
3728 | Guess he''s pretty sick of being tied to an old gin like that? |
3728 | Have you seen the questions?--no? 3728 Her? |
3728 | Here, little one, have you learned your verse? |
3728 | How CAN you be so vulgar, Laura? 3728 How can you if you''re not here?" |
3728 | How dare you cut off your hair? 3728 How do you know? |
3728 | How many servants do you keep? |
3728 | How much have you got a year? |
3728 | How old are you? |
3728 | How on earth can you cry over a book? 3728 How on earth would you say:''We had not however rid here so long, but should have tided it up the river''? |
3728 | How''s that shy little mouse of a girl we had here a month or two ago? |
3728 | How''s your ma? |
3728 | Hullo, Ziely, what are you deep in? |
3728 | Hullo, you kid,she said,"what''s YOUR name?" |
3728 | Hullo, you two, what are you gassing about? |
3728 | I do n''t mean to, M. P.--But what IS truth, anyhow? |
3728 | I hope, Marina, you told Graves about those empty jam- jars he did n''t take back last time? |
3728 | I never heard anyone who could talk as well as he does when he likes.--Can you keep a secret, Laura? 3728 I s''pose you often come here?" |
3728 | I say, Chinky, what do you do when a boy''s gone on you? |
3728 | I say, what did you poke me so hard for? |
3728 | I say, who on earth trimmed your hat? |
3728 | I should n''t think you did.--But I say, does your mother let you wear other people''s clothes? 3728 I suppose you think no end of yourself going to boarding- school?" |
3728 | Is it really? |
3728 | It''s Melb''m you''ll be boun''for I dessay? |
3728 | It''s so difficult, is it not, to accompany oneself? |
3728 | Just look at that Laura Rambotham again, will you? |
3728 | Just positively scrumptious, and..."And what''d he do? |
3728 | Laura, good heavens, what are you doing at the window? 3728 Laura, how can you?" |
3728 | Laura, where are you? |
3728 | Let me see-- what was her name again? |
3728 | Look here, you surely do n''t expect me to be an old maid, do you?--ME? |
3728 | Me? 3728 Mine? |
3728 | Monkey, if you''re so sharp you''ll cut yourself!--Young lady, do you happen to come from Warrenega? |
3728 | Mrs. Gurley, please, do you think it would matter very much if I only took half this verb today? 3728 Not bad for the kid.--Come on, Kid, will you have a walk round the garden?" |
3728 | Of course-- didn''t you know? 3728 Oh, Dante, is it?" |
3728 | Oh, HOW do you know? |
3728 | Oh, I meant much-- if you played much? |
3728 | Oh, how CAN you say such a horrid thing? |
3728 | Oh, how COULD she buy such a thing? 3728 Oh, mother, wo n''t she really get any dinner?" |
3728 | Oh, that''s it, is it? 3728 Oh, what ARE you going to do, Laura?" |
3728 | Old Anne? 3728 Ooh!--wouldn''t you like to know? |
3728 | Or the Doge''s palace?--or a black- cloaked assassin?--or a masked lady? |
3728 | Perhaps one of the others would play for you? |
3728 | Perhaps you talked too much yourself-- and about yourself? |
3728 | Pray, are you not a dissenter? |
3728 | Sapphira up to her tricks again, is she? |
3728 | Second- hand? 3728 Soon, now?" |
3728 | Sorry for a thief? |
3728 | Sure he can afford to buy it? |
3728 | Then I''ve the pleasure of knowing your mother.--Tall dark woman, is n''t she? |
3728 | Then you''re not going to tell me? |
3728 | Think I could have seen her if I did n''t? |
3728 | Those? 3728 Tired?" |
3728 | To boardin''-school? 3728 Told you to be as dull and long- winded as that? |
3728 | Truly? 3728 WILL you, Maisie, be kind enough to allow me to know my own tastes best, and not dictate to me what I shall eat?" |
3728 | Well, I suppose you''re ready now? |
3728 | Well, and so this is the young lady fresh from the halls of learning, is it? |
3728 | Well, but I suppose he was alive once was n''t he, duffer? 3728 Well, perhaps you would n''t mind staying in then? |
3728 | Well, perhaps you would play us something yourself now? |
3728 | Well, then, what IS all the fuss about? |
3728 | Well, well, and so the little girl''s goin''to school, is she? 3728 Well, well, let''s call in the cats!--By the way, Miss Ra... Ra... Rambotham, are you aware that this son of mine is a professed lady- killer?" |
3728 | Well, what about him? 3728 Well, why in the name of all that''s holy did he take her?" |
3728 | Well... well, he''s just the most-- oh, I do n''t know how to say it, girls-- the MOST----"Just scrumptious, I suppose, eh? |
3728 | What IS the matter with you girls down there? |
3728 | What are you doing, Laura? |
3728 | What are you going to do, Laura? |
3728 | What business has she to have secrets with you? |
3728 | What did he die of? |
3728 | What did she want? |
3728 | What do you look so black for? |
3728 | What have they been saying to you, Laura? |
3728 | What is he? |
3728 | What is it, dear? |
3728 | What on earth did he marry her for? |
3728 | What on earth''s the matter with you? |
3728 | What on earth''s the matter? 3728 What on earth''s the matter?" |
3728 | What were you doing? |
3728 | What''n earth more d''you want? 3728 What''s AMARE?" |
3728 | What''s the matter with you? 3728 What''s up with you, old Tweedledum? |
3728 | What''s up? |
3728 | What''s your father? |
3728 | What''s yours? |
3728 | What, liar? 3728 What? |
3728 | What? 3728 What? |
3728 | Whatever is the matter? |
3728 | Where do you come from? |
3728 | Where does your uncle hang out? |
3728 | Wherever are you goin'', my dear, so alone? |
3728 | Wherever did YOU learn Latin? |
3728 | Who knows? |
3728 | Who made your dress? |
3728 | Who''s talking down there? |
3728 | Whoever did it? 3728 Why has she got so red?" |
3728 | Why not? |
3728 | Why, Laura, you''re not ashamed of it, are you?--that mother does sewing? |
3728 | Why, Miss Laura, do n''t you know your ma wants you? |
3728 | Why, goodness gracious, what''s this? |
3728 | Why, she''ll be in the train, stupid,''ow can she? |
3728 | Why, what is this? |
3728 | Why, you do n''t mean to say a kid like you''s in the Second Principia already? |
3728 | Whyever did you do it? |
3728 | Will you come up to the study? |
3728 | Wish? 3728 With MUTTON, Robby dear?" |
3728 | Would n''t you like to wear a ring on one of them? |
3728 | Would you wear it, if I did? |
3728 | Yes, bully.--I say, IS my waist all right? |
3728 | Yes, but s''pose one was awfully sweet on you and you rather liked him? |
3728 | Yes, what is it? |
3728 | Yes, you can be civil now, ca n''t you? |
3728 | You asked to have me? |
3728 | You do n''t imagine you''re a Scott, do you? 3728 You go to Scots''Church then, do you?" |
3728 | You know Latin, do n''t you? 3728 You soft, did n''t you hear what she said?" |
3728 | You''re one yourself.--What does she mean, Evvy? |
3728 | You? 3728 Your hat? |
3728 | ''s beginning already? |
3728 | ... Greek? |
3728 | ... Latin? |
3728 | ... any more than I do?" |
3728 | ... nasty tarradiddles about people who''d been so nice to you? |
3728 | ... who told you?" |
3728 | Ai n''t you ashamed of yourself"--he spoke to Pin--"pipin''your eye like that? |
3728 | All your clothes in there?" |
3728 | And Laura? |
3728 | And as Laura did not reply:"What was she doing, Jessie?" |
3728 | And besides, was not a boy, a handsome boy, waiting for her, and expecting her? |
3728 | And how''s your dear mother?" |
3728 | And she has a back drive, too, by Jove, that-- you play, of course?" |
3728 | And to Laura:"Did you say you did n''t know it, dear?" |
3728 | And you promise faithfully never to take it off?" |
3728 | Are those ghosts, those things behind the man, or what?" |
3728 | As poor as all that?" |
3728 | As she passed Laura, too, she put out her tongue and said:"Now then, goggle- eyes, what have you got to stare at?" |
3728 | Bertha only laughed at this, in a teasing way:"Yes, is n''t it?" |
3728 | But that does n''t mean that I''m never going to marry at all, does it?" |
3728 | But when the third girl put the regulation question:"What''s your name and what''s your father?" |
3728 | But you''ll send me all you write-- all YOUR books-- won''t you, Cupid? |
3728 | Can I come in next to you for a minute?" |
3728 | Can you do away with the Bible, pray?" |
3728 | Come, come, my dear, what''s the matter? |
3728 | D''you hear?--Why, whatever''s your ma thinkin''of to send such a little chick as you to boardin''-school? |
3728 | D''you want to be after gettin''sunstruck?" |
3728 | Did n''t you enjoy yourself?" |
3728 | Did you... hm... learn that piece here?" |
3728 | Do you think I''d have asked to have you, if I hated it so much?" |
3728 | Do you want to deafen me?" |
3728 | Do you want to tell me I do n''t know what length you''re to wear your dresses?" |
3728 | Does it want to know?--say, Laura, who''s your mash?" |
3728 | Dreaming? |
3728 | For he laughed quite briskly as he asked;"What''s a kid like you know about it?" |
3728 | For it''s my opinion I sha n''t have enough left to shampoo my eyebrows.--Bob, is it you?" |
3728 | For who believed in old nurses nowadays? |
3728 | Have you ever been in Venice?" |
3728 | Have you utterly no respect for the truth?" |
3728 | He could n''t have seen half he told about?" |
3728 | He wrote a book, did n''t he, called FAUST? |
3728 | How are you, dear?" |
3728 | How are you? |
3728 | How goes it? |
3728 | How much more?" |
3728 | However does she do it?" |
3728 | I hope I did right?" |
3728 | I say, you know about that ring? |
3728 | INFANDUM, REGINA, JUBES RENOVARE DOLOREM-- isn''t that the way of it? |
3728 | If nobody used it?" |
3728 | In the reception- room Marina remarked at once:"Hullo!--is THIS the new dress your mother wrote us about?" |
3728 | Is my finger dry? |
3728 | It was only yesterday I wanted to look at some embroidery on her apron-- a rather pretty new stitch-- and do you think she''d let me see it? |
3728 | Just like that one o''Sam MacFarlane''s that popped off last Christmas-- isn''t she, Peter?" |
3728 | Kayser, do you vant to buy a dawg?''" |
3728 | Laura, where are you? |
3728 | Like a parrot-- ain''t she?" |
3728 | Must she at every step put them out of countenance? |
3728 | Now where have I heard that name?" |
3728 | Or a big, arresting thing like the Retreat of the Ten Thousand, or Hannibal''s March over the Alps? |
3728 | Or have you gone in for yellow ochre this time?" |
3728 | Over the tummy, up to the chin.--Now, who''s been at it? |
3728 | P.?" |
3728 | Red and yellow, do n''t you think?" |
3728 | Robby? |
3728 | SEMPER EADEM... do you like that, Laura?" |
3728 | She? |
3728 | That child''ll come to a bad end yet.--How do you like that colour, Miss C.?" |
3728 | That dreadful man your uncle?" |
3728 | To parlezvous about old Shepherd''s sermons? |
3728 | Twisting her fingers, in and out, she moistened her lips with her tongue.--When, oh, when would it begin? |
3728 | Was here, now, before them all, and Bob in particular, the shameful secret of the embroidery to come to light? |
3728 | Was there ever such a name?" |
3728 | Was there ever such a tiresome child? |
3728 | Well then, why on earth try to write wooden, second- hand rubbish like that?" |
3728 | Well, I''m glad none of MY uncles are so rummy.--I say, does he leave it at front doors himself in the morning?" |
3728 | What did it matter now to anyone what his attitude had been, more than two hundred years ago, to all those far- away, dream- like countries? |
3728 | What do you mean?" |
3728 | What in all the world would she do next? |
3728 | What is it?" |
3728 | What made you tell them?" |
3728 | What on earth did she cry for? |
3728 | What on earth have you got on your back?" |
3728 | What scheme was the birdlike Lolo hatching against her? |
3728 | What shall I do if she does?" |
3728 | What sort? |
3728 | What was he before he was dead?" |
3728 | What would happen to her? |
3728 | What''s blue?" |
3728 | What''s hardest?" |
3728 | What''s the old fool mean by that?" |
3728 | What''s your name?" |
3728 | When am I to get it? |
3728 | Where did you say you were going to have the dress made?" |
3728 | Where would YOU get it?" |
3728 | Who says so? |
3728 | Who''s your sister?" |
3728 | Why could it not have been a question about Bourke and Wills, or the Eureka Stockade, or the voyages of Captain Cook? |
3728 | Why could she not have said Sarah, the servant, the maid- of- all- work? |
3728 | Why did n''t you come to me? |
3728 | Why do you never walk with me nowadays, Laura? |
3728 | Why do you want to change it? |
3728 | Why must I always be odd man out?" |
3728 | Why on earth had such a far- fetched excuse leapt to her tongue? |
3728 | Why, oh why, had she not foreseen this possibility? |
3728 | Would she perhaps be turned out of the house? |
3728 | Would to- morrow ever come? |
3728 | Yet what else could I do? |
3728 | You do n''t like them either, Evvy, do you? |
3728 | You do n''t want me to tell stories, I suppose?" |
3728 | You do n''t want to say, I hope, that he did n''t believe in the Bible?" |
3728 | You have n''t forgotten?" |
3728 | You want to put it on us now, do you? |
3728 | You want to stuff us you do n''t know why she''s gone?" |
3728 | You''re nearly sixteen.--Why not go on working for your B.A.?" |
3728 | cried Bertha, and dealt out a couple of her rough and friendly punches.--"I say, who''s on for a race up the garden?" |
3728 | have n''t I said they were n''t there? |
3728 | who?" |
18507 | 128. Who does not know from the Word that everyone is allotted a life after death according to his deeds? |
18507 | 212. Who does not talk of fortune? |
18507 | 224. Who can not see that it is the internal from which the external exists and that consequently the external has its essence from the internal? |
18507 | 27- 45) divine providence has a heaven from mankind for its purpose? |
18507 | 5. Who does not believe that his little ones are in heaven and that after death he will see his wife, whom he has loved? |
18507 | 6. Who contradicts when something is said about the lot or state of those who have passed from time into eternal life? |
18507 | 77. Who can not from his faculty called rationality understand that a given good is serviceable to society, and a given evil harmful to society? |
18507 | A man may ask:"What is light` in itself''? |
18507 | Again I inquired,"What is the nature of those enjoyments?" |
18507 | Against what manner of providence are the arguments valid? |
18507 | And acknowledge further that man is to remove evils of himself, but still acknowledge that he does so from the Lord? |
18507 | And also that the devil infuses evils into the thoughts and leads astray and incites one to commit evils? |
18507 | And as each relies on what rules him in order to become greater, and aspires to be greatest, how can he see that God exists? |
18507 | And does not much happen by chance? |
18507 | And finally from a first or from underived being? |
18507 | And is spiritual good anything other than the enjoyment and pleasure of perceiving the beauty and harmony? |
18507 | And the more he loves him, the more he fears hurting him? |
18507 | And what man, speaking in favor of divine providence and of God in his reasoning, is not speaking from the spiritual or internal man? |
18507 | And who can dispose the infinite varieties of life among men but He who is life itself, that is, love itself and wisdom itself? |
18507 | And who does not know by experience that the external can appear out of accord with the essence it has from the internal? |
18507 | Are the Father and He not one then, like soul and body? |
18507 | Are they to be believed or not? |
18507 | As this is man''s situation, what then is his proprium? |
18507 | Asked"What then is God? |
18507 | Asked,"Would you grant that divine love and wisdom are life itself?" |
18507 | But which is true, the latter or the former? |
18507 | But who does not see, if he opens his eyes, that these are empty words, without reality because nothing of good is in them? |
18507 | But who knows this today? |
18507 | Can I not make true whatever I will?" |
18507 | Can I not''acknowledge God when I learn for certain that God there is? |
18507 | Can anyone reasonably think that the Lord can enter where the devil reigns, or heaven be where hell is? |
18507 | Can anyone speak so unless he inwardly believes it? |
18507 | Can anything exist except from a prior self? |
18507 | Can it be called good if it is without affection and perception? |
18507 | Can it impart and then take away? |
18507 | Can man be saved without being reformed first? |
18507 | Can not a woman receive more than one without harm? |
18507 | Can not offspring be born of it, too? |
18507 | Can one believe in it until he sees it?" |
18507 | Can one deny that He has done so for the sake of the end in view, namely salvation? |
18507 | Can such a state in a man be changed except by the evils being removed in the external man? |
18507 | Can the idea exist in any other thought than thought about self and the world, and does it not really mean that the world is all and eternity nothing? |
18507 | Can there be anything in its progress which does not proceed with all constancy according to the laws of divine providence? |
18507 | Can there be anything in its progress which does not proceed with all constancy according to the laws of divine providence? |
18507 | Can these views be reconciled in any other way than this, that what the church teaches is the truth, and what the world teaches is the appearance? |
18507 | Can what is dead govern anything? |
18507 | Consequently that these evils are in themselves injuries, and those goods in themselves benefits? |
18507 | Do not bats and owls have eyes to see light as darkness and darkness as light? |
18507 | Do not each and all things in tree or shrub proceed constantly and wonderfully from purpose to purpose according to the laws of their order of things? |
18507 | Do not each and all things in tree or shrub proceed constantly and wonderfully from purpose to purpose according to the laws of their order of things? |
18507 | Does anyone know this? |
18507 | Does divine providence lie concealed in this? |
18507 | Does he think they exist? |
18507 | Does he want to know anything further about either truth or good? |
18507 | Does it not laugh then at prudence and wisdom? |
18507 | Does not one who loves another fear to hurt him? |
18507 | Does not the like occur between husband and wife? |
18507 | Does not the soul, which disposes the interiors, dispose the actions also which spring from them? |
18507 | Does not the world do so? |
18507 | Does not what is itself alive govern what is lifeless? |
18507 | Does one not have light in his dreams in the middle of the night? |
18507 | Does reason not insist that to be any of these and to love God is a contradiction? |
18507 | Does sound reason not dictate that such a man can not be saved? |
18507 | Does such a person think of God or of eternal life? |
18507 | Evil affections and the thoughts from them to make one devil which is hell, and good affections and the thoughts from them one Lord in heaven? |
18507 | For a person may think,"What does the acknowledgment effect when the Lord is omnipotent and wills the salvation of all? |
18507 | For instance, who would see a spiritual truth unless the Word taught it? |
18507 | For men may ask themselves and one another,"Why does divine providence, if it exists, reveal such things for the first time now?" |
18507 | For who can understand that the world could be created as there described? |
18507 | Further, how can divine essence from eternity beget another and produce still another who proceeds from them both? |
18507 | Has not this house been made a den of robbers? |
18507 | Have those with standing a larger measure of happiness than those with little standing or even the least standing, like farmers and their hands? |
18507 | How can a murderer, thief, adulterer, or false witness love God? |
18507 | How can it do so in deceptions and schemes? |
18507 | How does anything spiritual enter into this?" |
18507 | How else can there be any acknowledgment which in its essence is faith? |
18507 | How, then, can heaven enter hell when a gulf is fixed between them so great that there is no crossing from one to the other? |
18507 | I asked,"What shall I write?" |
18507 | I asked,"Why did you infest the good?" |
18507 | I then asked,"What is your enjoyment?" |
18507 | I then said,"Do you find them enjoyable?" |
18507 | If it is asserted that faith is the medium of salvation, what man can not have this faith? |
18507 | If one asks,"Is life not dissipated then on the death of the body?" |
18507 | If then he is rational and spiritual in external form only, and not at the same time in his internal form, is he man? |
18507 | If then you will think spiritually, as you can if you will, will you not see wisdom in all this? |
18507 | If you regard them then solely from the confirmations of them, will you not be seeing falsities as truth? |
18507 | If, however, you take away repentance, or what is the same thing, separate life from religion, what is left except the words,"Have mercy on me"? |
18507 | In fact, who does? |
18507 | In regard to the first essential of the church, which is an acknowledgment of God, they only think,"What is God? |
18507 | Indeed, could he receive it? |
18507 | Is He not life itself?" |
18507 | Is darkness not light, therefore, and light darkness?" |
18507 | Is he different from a player on the stage or from an ape with an almost human face? |
18507 | Is it anything but just an expression? |
18507 | Is it anything else or more than an expression which people get from a priest? |
18507 | Is it not by prudence, wisdom, cunning and malice that all things are done in the world? |
18507 | Is it not enough for him to know the externals and dispose them for health of body and mind? |
18507 | Is it not from Him who has it in its full might, that is, who possesses it in and from Himself? |
18507 | Is it not his state then that a pent- up fire of lusts of evil consumes the interiors of his mind and lays them waste even to the entrance? |
18507 | Is it not merely a thought? |
18507 | Is it not thought that He is God and Man, God from Jehovah the Father of whom He was conceived and Man from the Virgin Mary from whom He was born? |
18507 | Is not all else necessity or consequence? |
18507 | Is not light only something which appears in the eye according to the eye''s condition? |
18507 | Is not that true which I make true?" |
18507 | Is not the devil such? |
18507 | Is not the temporal relatively nothing and does it not become nothing when it is past?" |
18507 | Is not what is called beautiful truth to it, and what is called enjoyable good to it? |
18507 | Is not what is called harmonious truth to it, and what is called pleasing good to it? |
18507 | Is one person more blessed and happier than another for it? |
18507 | Is something different to be said in relation to the organic substances of the mind? |
18507 | Is spiritual truth anything other than beauty and harmony in spiritual matters and objects? |
18507 | Is there a church whose doctrine is not based on the precepts of the Decalog? |
18507 | Is there any evil in it? |
18507 | Is there love or mercy in those loves? |
18507 | Is there such a thing? |
18507 | Is this not in itself imaginary? |
18507 | It can be replied,"What of that? |
18507 | It is undeniable that all which one sees, hears, smells, tastes or feels flows in; why not then what he thinks and wills? |
18507 | It may be said that it is to be believed and not thought about; but who does not think about what he is told must be believed? |
18507 | Lest it be thought these are meant, Paul explains, saying at that point, Do we not then make the law void through faith? |
18507 | Let wisdom speak in you, and you will exclaim in astonishment,"Who does not see the divine in such things? |
18507 | May it not seem like one or two days? |
18507 | May its blackness not be said to be only a shading which is not the real fact? |
18507 | May not these enjoy more happiness when it is well with them and they are content with their lot? |
18507 | May one not know from this that only he is a human being who is inwardly what he desires others to think he is? |
18507 | Moreover, in the fervor of his belief he may ask,"How can God see so many condemned in hell when He can save them all in an instant from pure mercy?" |
18507 | Moreover, what is greater or less standing, or greater or less wealth? |
18507 | Moreover, who does not see that the difference between the two loves is like that between what is principal and what is instrumental? |
18507 | Must he not hate God? |
18507 | Must he not then acknowledge as a consequence that man is to do good and think truth of himself, yet always acknowledge that these are from the Lord? |
18507 | Must not a house be steady for a variety of things to be done in it by a person? |
18507 | Must not divine love do this, then, being infinite? |
18507 | Of truth he says,"What is truth except that which confirms this faith?" |
18507 | On the question,"Is providence only general or also detailed?" |
18507 | Or a graven image or statue?" |
18507 | Or an idea or fancy? |
18507 | Or the prior self exist except from one prior to it? |
18507 | So he neglects all until he does not know what evil is; what then is he to search out and see in himself? |
18507 | Some of them remark,"What is truth? |
18507 | Some therefore ask,"What is truth? |
18507 | Suppose thought is sustained for ten or twelve hours; may not the length of time seem like one or two hours? |
18507 | Tell someone farther along in years,"Do not do this because it is contrary to the Decalog"and who gives heed? |
18507 | Tell someone, not that a given thing is good, but simply say"good"--is good anything? |
18507 | That there is talk of the kind in the church is known, but who believes that it is so? |
18507 | The external senses died with the body, did they not? |
18507 | The reply can be,"What of it? |
18507 | The sense- ridden ask,"How can the soul be anything else? |
18507 | Therefore the Lord says, Why do you call Me Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say? |
18507 | They ask,"How can anyone be wise of himself or do good of himself?" |
18507 | They ask,"What does acknowledgment accomplish? |
18507 | They say to themselves,"Why should I search out evil or good? |
18507 | They still think,"What is the spiritual except a finer natural?" |
18507 | They tell themselves,"What is this to me? |
18507 | Thinking more deeply, one asks oneself, How can the divine essence, which is infinite, be divided? |
18507 | To be saved, must he not first be led away from these evils and thus be reformed? |
18507 | To fit a world of laws must not the divine care have its laws, too? |
18507 | To what else can He look from His infinite being? |
18507 | To what else in mankind of which He forms His heaven? |
18507 | Was it not that they might know what evils are sins to be shunned? |
18507 | Was it only that they might know and believe, but do nothing? |
18507 | Was it such or such? |
18507 | What are truth and good to the hearing? |
18507 | What can exist apart from being, and what can being be from which is all other being except being itself? |
18507 | What do they intend?" |
18507 | What does it mean to say that it is contrary to God?" |
18507 | What else can divine providence then have for its end than the reformation and salvation of mankind? |
18507 | What else is"This I will,"or"This I understand,"or"I love this,"or"I think this"? |
18507 | What eulogizer, mourning the dead, does not exalt them to heaven and place them among the angels conversing with them and sharing their joy? |
18507 | What has the heat in common then with what is evil and noxious? |
18507 | What heretic can see his falsities unless he welcomes the genuine truth of the church? |
18507 | What indeed is faith without its laws? |
18507 | What is black in itself but white? |
18507 | What is good but enjoyment, and divine good but eternal blessedness? |
18507 | What is left except necessities, consequences and the fortuitous in which there is no semblance of divine providence? |
18507 | What is life without joy and pleasure? |
18507 | What is light when the eye is closed? |
18507 | What is more easily done? |
18507 | What is more unquiet at heart, more often provoked, or more violently enraged than self- love? |
18507 | What is"universal providence"then but a metaphysical term, and nothing but a term? |
18507 | What life has he then? |
18507 | What man of you, if his son shall ask bread, will give him a stone? |
18507 | What man, speaking in favor of nature and of human prudence in his reasoning, is not speaking from the natural or external man? |
18507 | What more is needed than this ocular proof? |
18507 | What need then to do more than cry,"Have mercy on me, O God"? |
18507 | What priest does not speak so to the dying? |
18507 | What then will the Lord not do, who is mercy itself? |
18507 | What would be the point in considering them before what providence is has been considered? |
18507 | What would eternal life be without this? |
18507 | What would they do with the light in which the spiritual sense of the Word is? |
18507 | What, again, is good which has no relation to anything? |
18507 | What, then, are standing and riches to the wicked but stumbling blocks? |
18507 | What, then, is standing except an idea, unless it attaches to the office or the use? |
18507 | When he can not do this, what would happen if he disposed internals also? |
18507 | When one sees angels in paintings or statuary does he not recognize them as such? |
18507 | When the natural sense is, why not the spiritual sense? |
18507 | When you do those abominable things? |
18507 | Which is? |
18507 | Which of you moreover can by taking thought add a cubit to his stature? |
18507 | Who can believe that unless man had full liberty, he not only could not be saved but would even perish utterly? |
18507 | Who can communicate what is divine and implant it in the heart except the Divine Himself from whom it is and of whom it treats? |
18507 | Who can feel the cruelty of vengeance except one who is in good from love to the neighbor? |
18507 | Who can feel this pleasure unless what he is affected by seems to be his? |
18507 | Who can not see that those who do such things do not love the neighbor as themselves? |
18507 | Who can not think and speak so, with trust and confidence, too, even when he is thinking of hell and eternal condemnation? |
18507 | Who can not understand, if he will, that what is being perfected to eternity can not possibly be made perfect in an instant? |
18507 | Who can repulse it if it opposes him? |
18507 | Who can sense the spiritual uncleanness of adultery except one who is in the cleanliness of chastity? |
18507 | Who can think of it otherwise? |
18507 | Who can think that He was conceived from two Divines, and if from His own that this was His Father? |
18507 | Who can wish to know or to understand anything except that an affection of his takes pleasure in it? |
18507 | Who does not acknowledge it by speaking of it and know something of it by experience? |
18507 | Who does not acknowledge that everyone leaves external things behind with the body and enters into internal things on becoming a spirit? |
18507 | Who does not feel a heightening of enjoyment in them as he succeeds in them and practices them uninhibited? |
18507 | Who does not perceive it within himself when he hears that the internal man is to be purified first and the external by it? |
18507 | Who does not see that a judge is to serve justice, a magistrate the common welfare, a king his kingdom, and that it is not to be the other way around? |
18507 | Who does not see that conjunction with God is life eternal and salvation? |
18507 | Who does not see that good should be the head, and that when it is, the Lord is there? |
18507 | Who does not see that man would have no freedom then? |
18507 | Who does not see that the cause is not in the heat but in the recipient subject? |
18507 | Who does not see that when evil is the head, the devil is there? |
18507 | Who else can bring about this unity? |
18507 | Who else can combine affections into a form? |
18507 | Who feels that it is evil to love himself above others? |
18507 | Who gives thought to the enjoyments of his love? |
18507 | Who has seen Him?" |
18507 | Who is admitted to Holy Communion without this admonition and precept? |
18507 | Who knows even what an affection of the love of good is, or that these affections are innumerable, in fact, infinite? |
18507 | Who of himself can believe otherwise? |
18507 | Who sees anything of it? |
18507 | Who should know the divine guidance if not the men and women in heaven who have obviously enjoyed it? |
18507 | Who that knows anything about man''s life does not see the impossibility of this? |
18507 | Who then can not know that so far as man shuns and is averse to evil he shuns and is averse to hell? |
18507 | Who then can not make this a matter of his reason if only he will? |
18507 | Who thinks that God and Man in Him, or His Divine and His Human, are one person, and are one as soul and body are? |
18507 | Who thinks that they are spectres, still less souls or minds hovering in the universe? |
18507 | Who thinks then that they are bodiless spirits or airy entities or clouds, as do some of the erudite? |
18507 | Who, on hearing a Gentile say he will not do this or that evil because it is contrary to his God, does not say to himself,"Is this person not saved? |
18507 | Who, then, knows that this is an evil, though it is the head of evils? |
18507 | Why evil, when it does not condemn me? |
18507 | Why good, when it does not save me? |
18507 | Why is it said that this is new? |
18507 | Why should not spiritual intelligence and wisdom increase as well? |
18507 | Why should not the supreme end, a heaven from the human race, proceed in similar fashion? |
18507 | Why should not the supreme purpose, a heaven from the human race, proceed in similar fashion? |
18507 | Why then do not Reformed Christians believe it, who know it from the Word? |
18507 | Why, indeed, should English not be allowed its own sentence structure and word order? |
18507 | Will you find fifty in a thousand who are loves of God, among whom, moreover, only a few aspire to eminence? |
18507 | Would he not be like one called a dullard or a clod? |
18507 | Would man not be an empty nothing then? |
18507 | Would that not be to give what will perish, what in itself is nothing, coming to nothing when it perishes? |
18507 | Would that not be turned into darkness? |
18507 | Would there not be darkness that could be dispelled only by the light in which the Word is, and only with one who wishes to be enlightened? |
18507 | Would this not amount to calling the Lord unmerciful? |
18507 | Yet who does not know that only God is to be invoked, and not any dead person? |
18507 | Yet who does not see that a person, whatever his function or standing, is to serve the affairs which he administers, and not they him? |
18507 | Yet who knows what it is? |
18507 | [ 2] But consider: what is universal providence when the details are taken from it? |
18507 | [ 2] First:_ The external can not compel the internal, but the internal can compel the external._ Who can be forced to believe or love? |
18507 | [ 2] Many also, as they listen to others, think to themselves,"Do those speaking think inwardly in themselves as they think in utterance? |
18507 | [ 2] Today is not the Decalog like a small, closed book or document, opened only in the hands of children and the young? |
18507 | [ 2] Who can not see from reason that other things are meant than those recorded literally like history? |
18507 | [ 2] Who can possibly have a perception of one God unless He is one in person? |
18507 | [ 3] But what is thought of the Lord today? |
18507 | [ 3] I asked again, Why have you taught your children the Decalog? |
18507 | [ 5] But what was done? |
18507 | [ 5] Who does not know that a man is what he is inwardly? |
18507 | [ 7] But one may ask, What are affection and thought then? |
18507 | [ 7] I asked,"What more shall I write from you?" |
18507 | and in your name done many mighty things? |
18507 | and of good,"What is good except what is in me from this faith? |
18507 | if then you are unable to do what is least, why do you take thought for the rest? |
18507 | one says to himself,"This man is not saved, is he? |
18507 | they answer,"What are love and wisdom?" |
18507 | will you then come to stand before Me in this house which is called by My name and say, We are delivered? |
13815 | A truce? |
13815 | Afraid? 13815 Ah, Reynard, may I relieve you, then? |
13815 | And are you not afraid of trusting yourself to an element that has proved thus fatal to your family? |
13815 | And wherefore so? |
13815 | And why, then, are you not afraid of trusting yourself to your bed? |
13815 | And you, Jackal, what is your father? |
13815 | And you, Mule, what is your father? |
13815 | Answer this question-- Do our people ever hurt your people? 13815 Are you sure I shall have all the corn at once?" |
13815 | As big as this then? |
13815 | As big as this, my children? |
13815 | As big as this? |
13815 | As this, then? |
13815 | But do you know my little ones? |
13815 | But know you mine? |
13815 | But the Lion held his head high with pride and anger and said,''What are you, oh, small of the small? 13815 But wherein is the wonder?" |
13815 | But which do you think is the greater, the number of the stars or of the fools? |
13815 | But, my dear friend,Vaska says to the Pike,"do you understand that kind of work? |
13815 | Can you prove it? |
13815 | Certainly not,said the Tiger;"why, how in the world could Friend Mouse- deer swallow_ Me_? |
13815 | Dear cousin,said he to her,"how do you do? |
13815 | Do you think I shall be able to see you, at least, in the wood to- morrow? |
13815 | Elf dost thou call me, vile pretender? |
13815 | Go quickly,said the Lion in a rage,"and show me where this vile wretch may be found?" |
13815 | Has not my service glorious Made both of us victorious? |
13815 | Have you no more wit,said a passerby,"than for you and your Son to trudge on foot and let your Ass go light?" |
13815 | Have you seen a Fox pass this way? |
13815 | How are you silly, Reynard? |
13815 | How can I help grieving, unhappy one that I am? |
13815 | How can that strong intrepid mind Attack a weak defenceless kind? 13815 How do you feel to- day, friend Lion?" |
13815 | How many are they? |
13815 | How nothing? |
13815 | How shall I place confidence in thee? |
13815 | How so? |
13815 | How so? |
13815 | How spent you the summer? |
13815 | How strong is the lion? 13815 How?" |
13815 | Hullo, you there,said he,"where do you come from?" |
13815 | If I could paint,said Fox,"I should delight T''anticipate your pleasure at the sight; But come; who knows? |
13815 | If my monotony of song Displeases you, shall I be wrong,The Cuckoo answered,"if I find Your comb has little to my mind? |
13815 | Is he a stouter one than we? |
13815 | Is it because spring has passed away from us, and love with it; that the sun has sunk lower, and that we are nearer to the winter? |
13815 | Is it not hot enough? |
13815 | Is it possible,said the Ass, shaking its ears,"that you do n''t know how it has succeeded in making itself liked, and in becoming distinguished? |
13815 | Is n''t it its tusks that have gotten it into favour? |
13815 | Is''t this? |
13815 | Lion, who is your father? |
13815 | May I depend upon your word? |
13815 | May we depend upon your word? |
13815 | No; do you not remember the woodcutter who could put down five strong men? 13815 Now, friends, can you not see that this place and this food all belong to the Master? |
13815 | Pray, what are you seeking for here? |
13815 | Reynard,said the Peacock,"what have you been doing?" |
13815 | Shall I,says he,"of tender age, In this important care engage? |
13815 | Then how can you expect your little ones to care for you? |
13815 | Then what was the smallest of all creatures of the wilderness that battled with a lion? |
13815 | Thine,says the Lion;"who art thou?" |
13815 | Think you,said he,"your royal name To me worth caring for? |
13815 | This fruit so large, on vine so small,Surveying once, exclaim''d a bumpkin--"What could He mean who made us all? |
13815 | Was it as big as this? |
13815 | Well, Reynard,Said he,"and what scent do you discover here?" |
13815 | Well, not quite always,said the Mastiff;"but what can that matter?" |
13815 | Well, what does that matter? 13815 What death?" |
13815 | What did Ceres do? |
13815 | What do I hear, friend? 13815 What do you mean by muddling the water I am going to drink?" |
13815 | What do you mean? |
13815 | What do you mean? |
13815 | What foe, to frustrate my designs, My schemes thus nightly countermines? |
13815 | What ill fortune have you had, that you have sold nothing all day? |
13815 | What is our food? 13815 What is that mark?" |
13815 | What is to be the stake? |
13815 | What need is there to go to Rhodes for witnesses? |
13815 | What shall I have to do? |
13815 | What sort of a scrape? |
13815 | What sort of protection can you hope for here? 13815 What then?" |
13815 | What then? |
13815 | What use, I pray, of this expense? |
13815 | What was the stake? |
13815 | What will be your reward? |
13815 | What? 13815 Where are you now?" |
13815 | Where is your brilliancy now? |
13815 | Where will you go hereafter? |
13815 | Who art thou? |
13815 | Who art thou? |
13815 | Who is his friend? |
13815 | Who is that one? |
13815 | Who would venture to deny the fact? 13815 Whose voice is that which growls at mine?" |
13815 | Why art thou so sad, dear friend? |
13815 | Why do you do that? |
13815 | Why does the Master treat us so? |
13815 | Why were you turned out? |
13815 | Why, how now, my Son? |
13815 | Why, was it not foolish of me to count the stars in the sky, when I could have counted the stars in your brilliant plumage to better advantage? |
13815 | Why, your majesty, what can be more wonderful than for Fish to escape in lots, each exceeding the other by one? |
13815 | Will you tell your people not to break down the fences and spoil the place and eat our food? 13815 Wo n''t you come inside a little while? |
13815 | Your axe must not be lost,said he:"Now, will you know it when you see? |
13815 | ( The Linnet warbled on)--"D''ye hear? |
13815 | ("When,"cry the botanists, and stare,"Did plants call''d Sensitive grow there?" |
13815 | --"But say, why doom yourself to sorrow so?" |
13815 | A great cry, however, arose from the people,"And Ceres? |
13815 | A weary theme, and full of pain; For where''s the shade so cool and sweet, Protecting strangers from the heat, But might of such a wrong complain? |
13815 | Am I not active, strong and supple? |
13815 | Am I to blame If men in morals are the same? |
13815 | And how comes it that Moles dare to meddle in the affairs of the king of Birds? |
13815 | And presently the Shark said:"Why have you made the line fast to my tail?" |
13815 | And she asked the King,"Where are all my Chickens?" |
13815 | And since that I have not power even to take leave, how can I endure the load of separation?" |
13815 | And soon he met with the Black Ape, and Friend Ape asked,"Why running so hard, Friend Tiger? |
13815 | And yet I ask the whole world-- Whose work is the finer, mine or that Merchant''s?" |
13815 | And, lest the guilty hear and dread, Shall not the decalogue be read?" |
13815 | Are you hungry? |
13815 | As she went across to the pigs''yard, all the young ones jumped up and grunted,"What are you coming here for? |
13815 | At length, being tired, as well he might, Of standing such a time upright, He to a Monkey near advancing, Exclaimed:"What think you of my dancing?" |
13815 | At this Friend Heron said:"Why does the boat fall off? |
13815 | Bird, where is the Bezoar- stone you promised to bring me, the one that was worth at least a thousand?" |
13815 | Brahmin, what is the reason thou carriest it upon thy shoulder?" |
13815 | But am I free to choose my employment? |
13815 | But could one expect that wise counsel could possibly come from a miserable Mole?" |
13815 | But hence what moral can I bring? |
13815 | But is it becoming that an Eagle should accept advice coming from a Mole in a hole? |
13815 | But tell me, have you already brought up your little ones? |
13815 | But the Mouse- deer answered,"What, Friend Shark, you''ll make a meal off me? |
13815 | But what do I care? |
13815 | But what happens? |
13815 | But what is the good of it if there''s neither warmth nor wear in it?" |
13815 | But what of that? |
13815 | But what then? |
13815 | But whom should he entreat, or compel, or induce by rewards, to instruct the czarevitch to become a czar? |
13815 | But why do you come here, Sii? |
13815 | But why on me those curses thrown? |
13815 | But why should he ponder long over it? |
13815 | By no means; why, we must all die; is not your father dead?" |
13815 | Can I do anything for you?" |
13815 | Can you not always run where you please, then?" |
13815 | Canst thou see the wale of a stick? |
13815 | Did it not tell thee what it was told by me, that thou art still sitting at home although it has become day?" |
13815 | Did not you give us leave to take from the Sheep a trifling contribution for our pelisses in winter? |
13815 | Did you know that you are really a very slow, stupid creature? |
13815 | Do you know that? |
13815 | Do you know what it was?" |
13815 | Do you not think it a good plan to give a Peace Party and settle this trouble?" |
13815 | Do you remember that not long ago our master brought three turtle eggs to feed your children? |
13815 | Do you remember the great lion we saw one day, which Ah- Kay caught? |
13815 | Do you suppose I like to be in jail? |
13815 | Do you want to fight?" |

13815 | Friend Tiger replied,"What do you mean by''so much noise''? |
13815 | Hare comes; he finds them talking; says:"Why are you quarrelling?" |
13815 | Have I come to the vile well of the silly Mosquitoes for wisdom?'' |
13815 | Have you any questions to ask? |
13815 | He says:"How shall I do? |
13815 | He was just about to kill and eat it when the bird cried out,"O Grandfather, surely you are not going to eat me? |
13815 | Her friend said:"What dost thou want that thou art come to me?" |
13815 | Hong- Mo said,"What are you doing? |
13815 | How came you to fall in? |
13815 | How can one tell? |
13815 | How can we get our music right? |
13815 | How is this, that you, who are blessed with hands and feet, yield to such sufferings?" |
13815 | How is your helm, Friend Mouse- deer?" |
13815 | How long have you been in the water? |
13815 | How many feet and legs have you? |
13815 | How shall I do?" |
13815 | How shall I punish your impudence?" |
13815 | How shall we kill him?" |

13815 | Look at the cells-- through every one Does not unvaried sameness run? |
13815 | May I hope to get a pension, and other privileges? |
13815 | My humble friend from danger free, While, weltering in my gore, I''m dying?" |
13815 | Nianga says:"What has done this to thee?" |
13815 | Nianga says:"Where shall I find food?" |
13815 | Not knowing how to guard your own?" |
13815 | Now, how do you wish that I should hold my tail?" |
13815 | Oh, such caressing was there ever? |
13815 | On seeing the little red Ants, our Lord asked them,"Why did you kill the man?" |
13815 | Or melody with such a quaver? |
13815 | Our Lord attended to the request of the Insects, and said to them,"Who will give notice that to- morrow all the Insects are to come?" |
13815 | Presently Father Elephant arrived, and Mother Elephant asked:"What were you sobbing for, Father? |
13815 | Presently the old man said:"Where has that bird got to? |
13815 | Presently, therefore, the Tiger asked the Elephant,"Well, Friend Elephant, would you like to try your luck again?" |
13815 | Said the King- crow to himself:"Who can it be coming up- stream that exclaims so loudly at the rapids? |
13815 | Said the old man,"Do you really mean it?" |
13815 | Seek ye to thrive? |
13815 | Shall every fowl the waters skim Because we Geese are known to swim? |
13815 | Shall haughty man my back bestride? |
13815 | Shall the sharp spur provoke my side? |
13815 | Shall we our servitude retain Because our sires have borne the chain? |
13815 | Shall, then, our nobler jaws submit To foam, and champ the galling bit? |
13815 | Should he choose the Panther? |
13815 | Should he trust him to the Mole? |
13815 | Should it in forward paws be taken, Or roll''d along, or dragg''d? |
13815 | So he turned to the Tiger and said,"Will you have some of this fine grass for your breakfast?" |
13815 | So they said to a Fox, who had been watching the race:"Will you tell us which of us is superior, and which inferior, in the race?" |
13815 | Some people said:"How shall we kill it?" |
13815 | Soon after, he was accosted by one of them in this manner:"Is not that a dog? |
13815 | Suppose I lead him after another Lion? |
13815 | The Cat asked the Hen''s child,"Why did thy mother send thee to me?" |
13815 | The Cat of the old woman inquired:"What sort of a thing may fat meat be? |
13815 | The Cat said to the Hen''s child,"Go and tell thy mother to arise and come at the cockcrowing; for what should eat her?" |
13815 | The Cat said to the Hen,"What art thou afraid of that thou sayest,''I will never come out at night''? |
13815 | The Cattle said:"Who will be the leader of our party and do the inviting? |
13815 | The Crab said:"Would you like to run a race with a stupid creature like me? |
13815 | The Crabs in the holes around came up to him and said:"Friend, why are you wailing so loud?" |
13815 | The Fox bowed respectfully, and stood before the king, who said:"So you are to tell us stories without ceasing?" |
13815 | The Fox said:"Have you ever been out for a walk in the moonlight?" |
13815 | The Goat rose up and, advancing to the mouth of the cave, said,"Will you come back to- morrow?" |
13815 | The Hen arose, and asked it:"Thou child of the Cat, dost thou come to me in peace?" |
13815 | The Hen replied to the Cat:"Dost thou like me for a friend?" |
13815 | The Hen said to her child,"What did the Cat say? |
13815 | The Hen''s child said,"My mother said I must come and ask thee how early shall we go to the neighbouring town?" |
13815 | The Man of Luck and the Man of Pluck A King in the East said to his Minister;"Do you believe in luck?" |
13815 | The Mule asked,"Shall we go to any other place?" |
13815 | The Partridge, void of fear, Begins her friend to jeer:--"You bragg''d of being fleet; How serve you, now, your feet?" |
13815 | The Proud Fox and the Crab One day a Fox said to a Crab:"Crawling thing, did you ever run in all your life?" |
13815 | The Snake replied:"Who deserves more to grieve than I, whose maintenance was from hunting frogs? |
13815 | The Tortoise rejoined;"How can it be that ye should speak with a view to my advantage, and I fail to perform a compact which is for my own good?" |
13815 | The Tortoise wept at the intelligence and piteously exclaimed,"What words are these, and how can existence be supported without sympathizing friends? |
13815 | The bulk which makes a child afraid? |
13815 | The man replied,"''Tis true; And did the Lark to you?" |
13815 | The man said to the Tiger:"If I let you out of the trap will you promise not to attack me?" |
13815 | The people said:"This fellow, how shall we do? |
13815 | The people said:"What shall we kill him with?" |
13815 | The thief asked him:"Who art thou, and whither goest thou?" |
13815 | The young that through your teeth have passed, In file unbroken by a fast, Had they nor dam nor sire?" |
13815 | Then Friend Mouse- deer said,"When does your promise expire?" |
13815 | Then he said,"Do you think I came here myself? |
13815 | Then the King- crow asked:"And what will you stake?" |
13815 | Then the Mule asked his mother,"Will you allow me to go with Sii to see his friend?" |
13815 | Then the Toad said to the Rat,"Didst thou see me? |
13815 | Then they said to him,"Why do you live here so long? |
13815 | There the Hen was standing and the people of the town said to her:"Foolish one, didst thou, a Hen, arise and go to befriend a Cat? |
13815 | They gather, saying:"Why didst thou send for us?" |
13815 | They returned home, called a council together and said:"What shall we do? |
13815 | Think you I tremble at your power or fame? |
13815 | This is all thy run; and wilt thou say that thou canst do more than I?" |
13815 | This is my story which thou hast heard; now, tell me, who art thou and what is thy story?" |
13815 | To this, however, the Mouse- deer replied:"What is the use of eating me, when there''s already plenty of butcher''s meat and to spare?" |
13815 | Was it a bird?" |
13815 | Was it such a return that I expected from them? |
13815 | Were Geese set off with half that show, Would men admire the Peacock? |
13815 | Were we designed for daily toil; To drag the ploughshare through the soil; To sweat in harness through the road; To groan beneath the carrier''s load? |
13815 | What are you complaining about? |
13815 | What are you that you should have a place you call your home and tell me that I may or I may not?'' |
13815 | What could be better than a king as the tutor for a prince? |
13815 | What harm had e''er my victims done? |
13815 | What have you done to yourself?" |
13815 | What is it that thou dost want?" |
13815 | What is the cause of it?" |
13815 | What is there in the way?" |
13815 | What makes a bird, I pray? |
13815 | What makes your hair so smooth and beautiful? |
13815 | What more proofs do you want?" |
13815 | What on earth is the matter with him? |
13815 | What see ye, men, in this parade, That food for wonder need be made? |
13815 | What shall we do?" |
13815 | What!--dare_ you_ challenge me to sing, When there''s no voice, however fine, Can match the melody of mine?" |
13815 | When did you find time to build a nest? |

13815 | Who can say? |
13815 | Who dares the inference to blink, That beasts possess wherewith to think? |

13815 | Who knows how that may turn out for me? |
13815 | Who put me here, do you know? |
13815 | Who told you such a lie? |
13815 | Why did you not give it to me?" |
13815 | Why do some try and not succeed; while others do not try and yet they do succeed? |

13815 | Why do you come?" |
13815 | Why do you not go back to your own place? |
13815 | Why do you not leave me in peace? |
13815 | Why do you want to keep it all to yourself?" |

13815 | Why should I go on suffering here in rain and mud, while our Diamond is, men say, in honour there? |
13815 | Why should I with this burden couple? |
13815 | Why so much noise, and why, just when the Rains are upon us, too, do you go fetching such lofty bounds?" |
13815 | Why was it, that, not fearing to sin, the Cuckoo praised the Cock? |
13815 | Why, have I even got the strength to lift it?" |
13815 | Why, then, am I not worthy of confidence?" |
13815 | Why, then, should we seek to die? |
13815 | Wilt play?" |
13815 | Would you not like to take a walk with me? |

13815 | cried the next person they met;"are you not ashamed to ride and let your poor old Father go on foot?" |
13815 | demanded the Elephant,"and whence comest thou?" |
13815 | do you dare,"she said,"to creep in The very bed I sometimes sleep in, Now, after all the provocation I''ve suffered from your thievish nation? |

13815 | my dear brother,"cried he, with affected concern,"can it really be you that I see down there? |

22019 | And wheer may he lie? |
22019 | And when he leaves you? |
22019 | And when that ship sails without you? 22019 And why do we want to have anything to do with them?" |
22019 | And you have given yourself up to us that by your death you may purchase a messenger from us for this errand? |

22019 | How much work have you done, Annémie? 22019 How wur''t?" |
22019 | I canna tell; but for sure it is well with him? |

22019 | The power of vision? 22019 Then there is no use in a stage at all?" |
22019 | Then why give the wealth of your intellect to men? |
22019 | Was it because you were afraid of dying in your prime that you would never woo Fame then yourself? |
22019 | Well, if they do? 22019 Were you guilty?" |
22019 | What am I worth that you should perish for me? 22019 What are you thinking of to- night?" |

22019 | You believe in public penance? |
22019 | You care for art yourself, M. Della Rocca? |
22019 | You come from the Roman Emperors? |
22019 | You have chapel and chaplain yonder at your château, I believe? 22019 You have sworn to take my body, sawn in two, to Ben- Ihreddin?" |
22019 | You mean that superiority has its attendant shadow, which is calumny? 22019 You think very ill of men?" |
22019 | You will not, I believe, seek to enforce your title to dispute them with me? |
22019 | You would not lose''those thoughts that wander through eternity,''to gain in exchange the peace from ignorance of the peasant or the dullard? |
22019 | _ A m''effacer_? 22019 _ You_ are of the people of Rubes''country, are you not?" |

22019 | *** Do n''t you know that whilst broad, intellectual scepticism is masculine, narrow, social scepticism is feminine? |
22019 | *** Do you know the delicate delights of a summer morning in Italy? |
22019 | *** Ever and anon the old, dark, eager, noble face was lifted from its pillow, and the withered lips murmured three words:"Is she come?" |
22019 | *** Have I been cruel, my child? |
22019 | *** How should we have great Art in our day? |
22019 | *** I never knew quite whether I liked her-- how can you with those women of the world? |

22019 | ***"You think any sin may be forgiven?" |
22019 | And for the future who cares,--save these madmen themselves? |
22019 | And the old dame, she said, Weel, sir, I dinna b''lieve tha Almighty would ever spite a poor old crittur like me, do n''t''ee think it? |
22019 | And those who held that sublime code of yours, that cleaving to truth for truth''s sake, where are they? |
22019 | And were it ours, should we give him the nameless mystic mercy which all men live to crave-- give it as the chastisement of crime? |
22019 | And without your settlements, where are you in Society? |
22019 | And would you summon it as your hardest cruelty to sin? |
22019 | And yet, what is gain except love, and what better than joy can we have? |
22019 | And you count that gain? |
22019 | And you know it is not age with_ me_, Annémie?" |
22019 | Answer me-- is the compact fair? |
22019 | Are you not glad for me, O Sun?" |
22019 | Are you possessed? |
22019 | Are you quite sure you are better to- day?" |
22019 | Artificial? |
22019 | Because the multitudes have it, such as it is, instead of the units? |
22019 | Bichât gave himself to premature death for science''sake; does the world once in a year speak his name? |
22019 | But Bac the cobbler, who was with me,--it was a fête day-- Bac,_ he_ said,''Do you not believe that, Bébée? |
22019 | But even if-- if-- I only remembered him by wounds, what would that change in me? |
22019 | But how many on the miserable stage of this country have ever had either humility to perceive, or capability to achieve this?" |
22019 | But if a wanton stone from a boat passing by break the shell, where is the nautilus then? |
22019 | But if we''re no to help oursells i''this world, what for have He gied us the trouble o''tha thrid to spin? |
22019 | But the lips moved still, though no voice came, with the same words:"Is she come?" |
22019 | But this man? |
22019 | But what could she know of this? |
22019 | But what do you think the reed felt then?--pain to be so sharply severed from its fellows?" |
22019 | But what is the use of talking? |
22019 | But what music do we ever have in the churches? |
22019 | But what of that? |
22019 | But who is there to care? |
22019 | But why do you look at me so? |
22019 | But why not show yourself at them? |
22019 | But with Barabbas-- what was the end? |
22019 | But you seem to envy that reed-- so long ago-- that was chosen?" |
22019 | But_ you_ must come out of Rubes''land-- at least, I think so; do you not?" |
22019 | By his own hand alone would his future be fashioned; would he hew out any shape save the idol that pleased him? |
22019 | Can you not see that if every man took heed of the guilt of his own thoughts and acts, the world would be free and at peace? |
22019 | Can you read my parable? |
22019 | Can you tell me?" |
22019 | Can you think that I shall be its informant?" |
22019 | City of Pleasure you have called her, and with truth; but why not also City of the Poor? |
22019 | Could it destroy the past? |
22019 | Could she see the blank despair that blinded my sight? |
22019 | Could she see the frozen hand that I felt clutching at my heart and benumbing it? |
22019 | Could she see the tears of blood that welled up in my eyes? |
22019 | Dear mother Annémie, are you better? |
22019 | Death? |
22019 | Did he?" |
22019 | Did her great men spring up full- armed like Athene, or was it the pure, elastic atmosphere of her that made her mere mortals strong as immortals? |
22019 | Did she like the new weekly journal that was electrifying Paris? |
22019 | Did you never find out the value of their words? |
22019 | Do you ever wonder at revolutions? |
22019 | Do you know what I mean? |
22019 | Do you know what the good priests would say?" |
22019 | Do you never think how horrible it is, that mockery of woe? |
22019 | Do you not know? |
22019 | Do you often think of them? |
22019 | Do you remember how he read it that night after Mozart amongst the roses by the fire? |
22019 | Do you remember those pictures of Vittario Carpacio and of Gentile? |
22019 | Do you say the merle was glad?" |
22019 | Do you understand?" |
22019 | Does the sun shine less often, have the flowers less fragrance, does sleep come less sweetly to you than to them? |
22019 | Does this sound a fanciful folly? |
22019 | Estmere looked at this wayside wit, this wine- house philosopher, with a regard that asked plainly,"Are you fool or knave?" |
22019 | For what do you know? |
22019 | For what hast thou bartered to me the golden rod of thy wealth and thy dominion over the flocks and the herds? |
22019 | For what if he came and found me away? |
22019 | For when do men forgive force in the woman? |
22019 | Forest King had done so much, could he have stay and strength for this? |
22019 | Good? |
22019 | Great? |
22019 | Gudule and St. Michael had set the church down in the night all ready made-- why not? |
22019 | Had she read the new French story"Le Bal de Mademoiselle Bibi?" |
22019 | Have you the face to make it? |
22019 | Her love was deathless: how could she know that his was mortal? |
22019 | Hev''''ee e''er heerd on her?" |
22019 | How can I say how right I think your system with these children? |
22019 | How can one care for a God since He lets these things be?" |
22019 | How can we tell what Byzantium might have become under one mighty hand? |
22019 | How could one say to her the thing that he had made her in man''s and woman''s sight? |
22019 | How have they fared in every climate and in every age? |
22019 | How have you the poor with you? |
22019 | How is that any fault of mine? |
22019 | How many of my bravest have fallen in death; and shall I be afraid of what they welcomed? |
22019 | How, then, can it be art, which is only great in proportion as it escapes from the physical life into the spiritual?" |
22019 | I love my hut, and the starling, and the chickens-- and what would the garden do without me?--and the children, and the old Annémie? |
22019 | I think if I could hear great music once-- if I could go to Florence----""To Florence?" |
22019 | I want some one who will tell me,--and if you come out of Rubes''country as I think, no doubt you know everything, or remember it?" |
22019 | I was on the lower hill, so I ran up-- is all right with you?" |
22019 | I, whose whole life is one restless impatience, one petulant mutiny against circumstance? |
22019 | I-- a dog?" |
22019 | I?--the mind of a man, the breath of a god?" |
22019 | If ever you have children, I suppose you will rear them on science and the Antonines?" |
22019 | If it be not, how comes it that women have given you no great poet since the days of Sappho? |
22019 | If it were of any use who would mind? |
22019 | If this woman took the lad away from him, where was there any mercy or justice, earthly or divine? |
22019 | In answer she wrote back to him:"I do not urge you to have my faith: what is the use? |
22019 | In the Grand Stand the Seraph''s eyes strained after the Scarlet and White, and he muttered in his moustaches,"Ye gods, what''s up? |
22019 | In those days the impossible was possible-- a paradox? |
22019 | Indeed, who can tell? |
22019 | Is he grieved to live? |
22019 | Is he who did them shut out from all hope?" |
22019 | Is it not well to clothe a distasteful and barbaric necessity in a refining guise and under an elegant nomenclature?" |
22019 | Is it true?--if the world''s choice were wrong once, why not twice?" |
22019 | Is not my Venetian glass with its iridescent hues of opal as real every whit as your pot of pewter? |
22019 | Is there any threnody over a death half so unutterably sad as that one jest over a life? |
22019 | Is there no glory at all worth having, then? |
22019 | Is this the meaning of civilisation-- to make privacy impossible, to oblige every one to live under a lens? |
22019 | Is your foot less swift, your limb less strong, your face less fair than theirs? |
22019 | It seems that they loathe and despise him?" |
22019 | It was the Corso di Gala that afternoon, would she not go? |
22019 | It will all_ end_ now, will it not? |
22019 | May we not trust that at the bottom of it, as at the bottom of Pandora''s, there may be hope? |
22019 | Me? |
22019 | Men can bridle the ass and can drive the sheep; but who can drive the eagle or bridle the lion? |
22019 | More than Alexander ever grasped at-- what might not have been done with it? |
22019 | No doubt you are come in to see it all?" |
22019 | No: what was the use of reading novels of society by people who never had been in it? |
22019 | Now- a- days, science makes a great discovery; the tired world yawns, feels its pockets, and only asks,"Will it pay?" |
22019 | O child, do not pine for the glass house that would ennoble you, only to force you and kill you? |
22019 | Oh, all that? |
22019 | Oh, my dear, my heart is broken; how can I tell you? |
22019 | Old Age?--Is there not white and red paint, and heads of dead hair, and even false bosoms? |
22019 | Once he asked her--"Are you tired?" |
22019 | Pain? |
22019 | Pain?--Are there not chloral and a flattering doctor? |
22019 | People were talking of a clever English novel translated everywhere, called"In a Hothouse,"the hothouse being society-- had she seen it? |
22019 | Renan asks,''O God, when will it be worth while to live?'' |
22019 | Shall I ask higher payment than the God of the sun and the violets asks for Himself? |
22019 | Shall I be Nothing?--like the muscle that rots, like the bones that crumble, like the flesh that turns to ashes, and blows in a film on the winds? |
22019 | Shall I die so? |
22019 | Shall I perish with the body? |
22019 | Shame?--Is it not a famine fever which never comes near a well- laden table? |
22019 | She must content, or how will she be countenanced? |
22019 | She said it was well done, but what charm was there in it? |
22019 | Singing how? |
22019 | So she dubs us"cynics"and leaves us-- who can wonder if we wo n''t follow her through the rain? |
22019 | So she thought,"Surely, my dew will best fall where such glorious water dances?" |
22019 | Sorrow?--Are there not a course at the Baths, play at Monte Carlo, and new cases from Worth? |
22019 | Still-- to see so great a gift as yours wasted----""Wasted? |
22019 | Surely it is best bestowed where it will change to a jewel?" |
22019 | Take care of the old man-- he will not trouble long-- and of Vole- qui- veut and Etoile, and Boule Blanche, and the rat, and all the dogs, will you? |
22019 | That is the sort of dinner we make all the year round, morally-- metaphorically-- how do you say it? |
22019 | That is your friend who bends over me here?--is it not? |
22019 | That rose now, is it well done?" |
22019 | The Book of the Christians is the very manual of Socialism:''_ You_ read the Gospel, Marat?'' |
22019 | The Huron Indians pray to the souls of the fish they catch; well, why should they not? |
22019 | The Veglione on Sunday-- would she not go to that? |
22019 | The martyr, the liberator, the seeker of truth, may deserve its peace; how has the traitor won them? |
22019 | Then she thought,"Surely my gift will be best given in succour to the first and lowliest thing I see in pain?" |
22019 | There might be paradise for virtue and hell for crime, but what in the name of the universe was to be done with creatures that were only all Folly? |
22019 | There was another world, and saints and angels and eternity; yes, of course-- but how on earth would all those baccarat people ever fit into it? |
22019 | They love their darkness best-- why not leave them to it? |
22019 | They write of love, and who forgets the Lesbian? |
22019 | Think you I would exchange them for the gold showers and the diamond boxes of a Farinelli?" |
22019 | Though it fall, err, betray, be mocked of others and forsaken by itself, what does this matter? |
22019 | To be great? |

22019 | Was that death to the reed?--or life? |
22019 | Was the bell tower yonder set in a ducal garden or in a public place? |
22019 | Well, what have we gained? |
22019 | Well?" |
22019 | Were they? |
22019 | What business have you here, who do neither the one nor the other?" |

22019 | What does he care? |
22019 | What does it matter if everybody looks after you when you pass down a street, what they say when you pass?" |

22019 | Why do you not set yourselves to make us more abundant in those joyless homes, in those sunless windows? |
22019 | Why have you ever bade me desire the light and seek it, if for ever you must thrust me into the darkness of negation? |
22019 | Why is it that in a polished life a man, whilst becoming incapable of sinking to crime, almost always becomes also incapable of rising to greatness? |

22019 | echoed Bruno aghast;"what are you about, child? |
22019 | everybody cries with eager zest; but when they have only to say"Oh, was n''t it so?" |
22019 | he muttered;"shall I never muzzle and yoke you ever again?" |
22019 | how can I thank you? |
22019 | let your mother die rather than allow her to eat the bread of your dishonour: which choice between the twain do you not think a mother would make? |
22019 | or would yer damn him hard?" |
22019 | said the girl--"why should it vex you? |
22019 | she echoed, with less languor and more of impetuosity than she had ever displayed,"are you ever in love, any of you, ever? |
22019 | she said at last,"that means something that one has not, and that is to come-- is it so?" |
22019 | she would have said,"what did that mean in''15? |
22019 | that is simple enough, is n''t it? |
22019 | what can I say to you? |
22019 | what have I done to be worthy of such love?" |
22019 | what matter when or how each bubble of it bursts? |
22019 | what shall these profit thee now?" |
22019 | whatever is there that stands the test of knowing it well? |
22019 | who cares to be bored? |
11248 | Can nature, let me ask, regard use as an end, and dispose uses into orders and forms? 11248 Can you finish it within the year?" |
11248 | In what then,said they to the angel,"does heavenly joy consist?" |
11248 | Is not heaven,they argued,"before our eyes in a particular place above us? |
11248 | We can not approach:and he said,"Why not?" |
11248 | What is the origin of beauty but love, which, when it flows into the eyes of youths, and sets them on becomes beauty? 11248 Who are you? |
11248 | _ Philip said, Shew us the FATHER: Jesus said unto him, He that seeth me, seeth the FATHER; how sayest them then, Shew us the FATHER_? |
11248 | _ Where is the hill of thy MOTHER''S divorcement, whom I have put away_? |
11248 | 43; for you make conjugial love and adulterous love the same thing; and do these two cohere any more than iron and clay? |
11248 | 6- 11? |
11248 | After attending some time to this sight, we approached the table, and asked him what he was then writing? |
11248 | After this I gave the conversation a serious turn, and asked them, whether they had ever thought that adultery is sin? |
11248 | After this, as I looked around, I saw their tabernacle as it were overlaid with gold; and I asked,"Whence is this?" |
11248 | Afterwards I said,"How can you subsist upon this earth, when you are void of any love truly conjugial, and also when you worship idols?" |
11248 | Afterwards those who were seated on the grassy couches, asked the angels"Whence are the innumerable and ineffable delights of conjugial love?" |
11248 | Again I asked,"What other miracles shall I do?" |
11248 | Again I enquired,"How can he, who is emperor of emperors, so submit himself, and how can you receive adoration?" |
11248 | Again they were asked,"What is the quality of those delights?" |
11248 | Again we asked,"What are your religious notions respecting whoredoms?" |
11248 | Also remove the feathers and quills, and look at its skin; is it not white? |
11248 | Also, how can a man live eternally, unless he be conjoined to an eternal God? |
11248 | And I asked,"Are not the things above- mentioned miracles?" |
11248 | And are not our bodily senses the only evidences of truth? |
11248 | And are not those things entirely distinct from each other? |
11248 | And as by this time we were ready to depart, I asked,"Did any of you, during your abode in the natural world, live with more than one wife?" |
11248 | And can a bony skeleton that has been parched in the sun, or mouldered into dust, be introduced into a new body? |
11248 | And can nature make angels of men, and heaven of angels? |
11248 | And can such super- eminent principle derive its existence from any other source than from God himself, the Creator and Preserver of the universe? |
11248 | And how can there be conjunction with God by love and wisdom, unless a man have some reciprocity of conjunction? |
11248 | And how could the cadaverous and putrid materials be collected, and reunited to the souls? |
11248 | And if he never learnt to speak, would he ever be able to express his thoughts? |
11248 | And instantly upon the heads of some of the audience there appeared wreaths of flowers; and on their asking,"Why is this?" |
11248 | And it was asked them,"Are those things delightful to you?" |
11248 | And must not all the intercourse of youths and virgins, in such case, consist of dry insipid joys? |
11248 | And on being asked,"What further account can you give?" |
11248 | And one of the ten asked,"How for the sake of relatives?" |
11248 | And presently, when he was turned to me, I asked him what he heard? |
11248 | And they added,"What do you wish us to tell you on the subject?" |
11248 | And they looked at each other, and said,"Which of you has seen him?" |
11248 | And they replied with a hissing,"What do you mean by one wife only? |
11248 | And they replied,"What do you mean by holiness? |
11248 | And we answered,"Are they not also works of the spirit? |
11248 | And we asked thirdly,"Does your religion teach that marriages are holy and heavenly, and that adulteries are profane and infernal?" |
11248 | And what harm can come to a man? |
11248 | And what have actions to do with religion? |
11248 | And what is a woman? |
11248 | And when some of the women said that they were their wives, they replied,"What is a wife? |
11248 | And who can discover, let him make what inquiry he pleases, any other cause of this than that he has devoted his soul and heart to one woman? |
11248 | And who does not know that that concupiscence is not imputed, while from natural he is becoming spiritual? |
11248 | Are not adulteries as prolific as marriages? |
11248 | Are not all things therein organically formed to produce the things which the love wills and the understanding thinks? |
11248 | Are not illegitimate children as alert and qualified for the discharge of offices and employments as the legitimate? |
11248 | Are not marriages works of the flesh and of the night?" |
11248 | Are not the angels of heaven principled therein? |
11248 | Are not the atmospheres and all things which exist on the earth, as surfaces, and the sun their centre? |
11248 | Are not the organs of the body from nature, and love and thought from life? |
11248 | Are not there instances of adulterous presbyters and monks? |
11248 | Are not these the delights of true conjugial love in their fulness?" |
11248 | Are not they adulterous?" |
11248 | Are not your heads in nature, and is there any influx into the thoughts of your heads but from nature? |
11248 | Are there not instances of men who are so wild and foolish, that they are no more like men than those who have been found in forests? |
11248 | Are they not in the meantime mere vaporous and unsubstantial souls residing, in some place of confinement(_ in quodam pu seu ubi_)?" |
11248 | Are they not mere creatures of the brain?" |
11248 | As he said this, I saw a great light upon the hill in the middle of the tabernacles; and I inquired,"Whence is that light?" |
11248 | As wisdom is a principle of life, and thence of reason, as was said above, it may be asked, What is wisdom as a principle of life? |
11248 | At length I asked him,"How long do you two hundred thus glory among yourselves?" |
11248 | At length I said,"Although you do not fear divine laws, do you not fear civil laws?" |
11248 | At that instant two angelic spirits happening to meet them, accosted them, saying,"Whence are you?" |
11248 | At this also they murmured, saying,"What have you to do here with whoredoms? |
11248 | At this the crowd murmured, and said,"What have you to do here with marriages? |
11248 | At this the novitiate laughed, saying,"What are heaven and hell? |
11248 | At this they smiled and said,"What is a wise one or a wisdom without a woman, or without love, a wife being the love of a wise man''s wisdom?" |
11248 | At this we smiled and said,"Are they not contraries? |
11248 | Being questioned whether they saw any sin in it? |
11248 | But I replied,"I know that you are a wise one; and what has a wise one or a wisdom to do with a woman?" |
11248 | But I said,"Do not you know that to live well is charity, and that to believe well is faith? |
11248 | But at this several who were present laughed, saying,"What is spiritual good?" |
11248 | But being much terrified, they did not answer; and I said,"Do you see the dreadful sight? |
11248 | But he then asked,"Whence comes the fire of the sun of the world, or of nature?" |
11248 | But instantly, as before, his internal sight was opened, the external being closed, and he was asked what he then saw? |
11248 | But the legate replied,"Does not the raven appear black to the sight?" |
11248 | But the men said,"Whence has a man honor from his wife but by her magnifying his intelligence?" |
11248 | But they said,"How can there be any love, which is not from creation? |
11248 | But what are the delights of the bodily senses without those of the soul? |
11248 | But who does not know that good and truth are two distinct principles, like love and wisdom? |
11248 | Can any human being know and decide who is in heart an adulterer, and who a conjugial partner? |
11248 | Can light be one with the eye, or sound with the ear? |
11248 | Can love be forced? |
11248 | Can the love of the sex, when it enters by the eyes into the thoughts, stop at the face of a woman? |
11248 | Can these possibly be one in any other sense than as principal and instrumental are one? |
11248 | Consequently how can a man be a man without such a likeness of God in him?" |
11248 | Consequently what were they all before the sun, or how could they subsist? |
11248 | Do not adulteries take place with devils in hell, and marriages with angels in heaven? |
11248 | Do you not know, that the soul of a man is in his seed?" |
11248 | Does it not descend instantly into the breast, and beyond it? |
11248 | Does not each derive life from heat, and understanding from light, by the operation of nature?" |
11248 | Does not he who perpetually loves a married partner, love her with the whole mind and with the whole body? |
11248 | Does not that which is posterior subsist from what is prior, as it exists from what is prior? |
11248 | Does this love, as to its ultimate effect with a wife, differ at all from love as to its effect with a harlot? |
11248 | For is not the nature of his life determined by the nature of the instruction he receives? |
11248 | Has not every one the strength of this love either hereditarily, or from bodily health, or from temperance of life, or from warmth of climate? |
11248 | Have you forgotten the Lord''s words, that whosoever would be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven must be the least of all, and the servant of all? |
11248 | Have you known any thing heretofore about heaven and hell, or the light and heat of this world? |
11248 | Have you known anything about the sun of this world from which our light and heat proceed? |
11248 | Have you known anything till now concerning a life after death? |
11248 | Have you never heard that the understanding is without any sense or discernment in mysteries, which constitute the whole of religion? |
11248 | Have you not till now denied such a life, and degraded yourselves to the beasts? |
11248 | He afterwards asked how I proved the SECOND,"that a saving faith is to believe on him?" |
11248 | He departed, and came to them, and told them the reason of his coming, and requested that they would teach him what delight is? |
11248 | He inquired,"What?" |
11248 | He looked at me; upon which I said,"Why do you look at me?" |
11248 | He said,"I heard,''Do you know anything concerning heaven, salvation, and happiness in heaven?''" |
11248 | He then took his leave of them, and inquired where he might find the wise? |
11248 | Hereupon I asked,"What do the circles about the head represent?" |
11248 | Hereupon his companions smiled and said,"You conjecture right: who can behold such beauties near and not feel some excitement?" |
11248 | Hereupon some of the bystanders asked,"What is the chaste love of the sex?" |
11248 | Hereupon the ancient sages asked,"What do the people on the earth think of such information?" |
11248 | Hereupon the men rejoined,"Are you not females as before?" |
11248 | Hereupon the men were silent; nevertheless they murmured,"What is conjugial love?" |
11248 | Hereupon the novitiates observed,"If there be a love of the sex devoid of all allurement, what in such cases is the love of the sex?" |
11248 | Hereupon the two novitiates asked,"Are there in heaven human forms altogether similar to those in the natural world?" |
11248 | Hereupon they all asked,"What is the delight of the soul, and whence is it derived?" |
11248 | Hereupon they turned themselves away and muttered,"What harm can this do her?" |
11248 | How can a love that is not created be implanted in any one?'' |
11248 | How can any one know whether he performs uses from self- love, or from the love of uses? |
11248 | How can posterior things produce prior, or exterior things produce interior, or grosser things produce purer? |
11248 | How can the chaste love of the sex be the sweetest of all loves, when chastity deprives it of its sweetness? |
11248 | How can there be a love which divides and separates? |
11248 | How can you utter a question which so wounds our ears? |
11248 | How then can they excite the idea of one God?" |
11248 | I again asked,"What miracles then do you mean?" |
11248 | I also asked,"Why are there two marriage- chambers?" |
11248 | I also went thither in spirit, and asked the keeper who was standing at the entrance, whether I also might enter? |
11248 | I approached them, and, greeting them with a salutation of peace, respectfully asked them,"For what purpose are you here below?" |
11248 | I asked also, whether those wives afterwards return to their husbands and live with them? |
11248 | I asked further,"How many are there in your society?" |
11248 | I asked him again,"Do you know what befalls those who sink under ground?" |
11248 | I asked him,"What have you preached?" |
11248 | I asked the wives,"Why are you unwilling, and consequently can not say so?" |
11248 | I asked therefore what they were conversing about? |
11248 | I asked, why they do not hire for themselves unmarried women? |
11248 | I asked,"Whence have you this wisdom?" |
11248 | I heard a sweet sound; and I asked the angel, what was the subject of their glorification in that quarter respecting the Lord? |
11248 | I inquired the reason of this? |
11248 | I inquired,"How is a feminine principle produced from a male soul?" |
11248 | I inquired,"Where are the priests? |
11248 | I inquired,"Why do you say_ one_ arcanum; when I came here to learn several?" |
11248 | I next asked him,"How could you so speak, when you are yourself a fraudulent dealer, an adulterer, and a devil?" |
11248 | I replied,"I intend to do so: what harm can come from it?" |
11248 | I replied,"Why should I not? |
11248 | I replied,''Is not this heaven? |
11248 | I said further, that a revelation has been made at this day by the Lord concerning the life of man after death? |
11248 | I said,"Are they beasts then?" |
11248 | I said,"I demonstrate it thus: Is not God one and individual? |
11248 | I said,"What do you mean by following the light?" |
11248 | I take upon me to say, their reply will be,''What do you mean? |
11248 | I then asked him again,"Are not your idols of different forms? |
11248 | I then asked the angels,"Whence have devils such rationality?" |
11248 | I then asked the other,"What do you say to this?" |
11248 | I then asked the wives, Whether the white dove in the window afterwards appeared? |
11248 | I then asked them whether marriage was distinguishable? |
11248 | I then asked them,"What do you see?" |
11248 | I then asked,"Do you know anything more respecting the wisdom of your husbands which gives you delight?" |
11248 | I then asked,"If such a union exists, is it possible for you to look at any other woman than your own?" |
11248 | I then asked,"Since conjugial love dwells there, where then does conjugial cold dwell?" |
11248 | I then asked,"What is within in that sanctuary, from which so great a light proceeds?" |
11248 | I then asked,"What must be the nature of that religion by which a man is saved?" |
11248 | I then asked,"Whence arises that which you call conjugial cold?" |
11248 | I then asked,"Why did the little boy call you Maidens of the fountain?" |
11248 | I then said to him,"Do you not see that you are insane from the phantasy of super- eminence?" |
11248 | I then said to him,"How can you be so insane? |
11248 | I then said,"Since you were cast down, how can you rise again out of hell?" |
11248 | If God be one and individual, is not he one person? |
11248 | If any man had the eyes of an owl, which would he call light and which darkness? |
11248 | If chastity be predicated of the love of the sex, is not this destroying the very thing of which it is predicated? |
11248 | If he be one person, is not the trinity in that person? |
11248 | If it be not reciprocal, does it not rebound and become nothing?" |
11248 | If our husbands possess any portion of it, still we do not; whence then come its delights to us? |
11248 | If such be a man''s lot after death, would it not be better to be born an ass than a man? |
11248 | If you should ask the females in heaven,''What is love extra- conjugial?'' |
11248 | If you should then ask them,''What is love truly conjugial?'' |
11248 | In like manner, what are love and wisdom without their use? |
11248 | In the meantime I asked the husbands,"Have you a like sense of conjugial love?" |
11248 | Is he not born in a state of greater ignorance than the beasts? |
11248 | Is it a vapor, or some wind floating in the atmosphere, or some thing hidden in the bowels of the earth? |
11248 | Is it any thing or nothing? |
11248 | Is it anything? |
11248 | Is it not a contradiction in terms to talk of such a love? |
11248 | Is it not also contrary to reason to believe, that the soul can be re- clothed with its body? |
11248 | Is it not heaven where any one is free; and is not he free who is allowed to love as many as he pleases? |
11248 | Is it not its beginning, its support, and its fulfilment? |
11248 | Is it not joy and gladness? |
11248 | Is it possible that nature from any principle of love, by any principle of wisdom, should provide such things? |
11248 | Is not conjugial love a chaste, pure, and holy love? |
11248 | Is not conjugial love alone mutual and reciprocal? |
11248 | Is not conjugial love from creation; and does not this love exist between two who are capable of becoming one? |
11248 | Is not every man such as instruction makes him,--insane from false principles, or wise from truths? |
11248 | Is not it the catechism? |
11248 | Is not light changed into shade when the eye comes out of sunshine, and also when it is kept intensely fixed on the sun? |
11248 | Is not love with a married partner the love of the sex, which is so universal that it exists even among birds and beasts? |
11248 | Is not our spiritual light, which enlightens the sight of the mind, become thick darkness with them? |
11248 | Is not subsistence perpetual existence? |
11248 | Is not such love barren and devoid of life?" |
11248 | Is not the act alike?" |
11248 | Is not the body eaten up by worms, mice, and fish? |
11248 | Is not the case similar with the brute creation, especially with birds which unite in pairs? |
11248 | Is not the fruit good?" |
11248 | Is not the lust similar, and the delight similar? |
11248 | Is not the soul made blessed by the muttering of words from a devout heart concerning expiation, satisfaction, and imputation, and not by works?" |
11248 | Is not the whole human race, and thence the whole angelic heaven, the seed of that love? |
11248 | Is not there a trinity? |
11248 | Is not this a mere fiction? |
11248 | Is not this climbing above the sphere of every one''s intelligence?" |
11248 | Is not this love with every one according to the state of his potency? |
11248 | Is not this marriage spiritual, which enters the natural marriage of husband and wife?" |
11248 | Is not this subject above the sphere of all human understanding?" |
11248 | Is not this the case with such as have been deprived of memory? |
11248 | Is not this vigor the very measure, degree, and basis of that love? |
11248 | Is she not born subject to man''s will; to serve, and not to domineer? |
11248 | Is there any wisdom that can bring conviction that to love another person''s wife merits eternal damnation?" |
11248 | Is there anything true in the nature of things, but what a man makes true? |
11248 | It is well known that religion is called a bond; but it is asked, for whom? |
11248 | It was next said to him from behind,"Do you know that those who are in hell are insane from falses?" |
11248 | It was then asked them,"Why have you infested the good?" |
11248 | It was then said to me,"Do you wish to see them where they now are?" |
11248 | Lastly they asked,"Is it not expedient that a priest be present and minister at the marriage ceremony?" |
11248 | May not their lot in such a case be compared with that of prisoners bound hand and foot, and lying in a dungeon? |
11248 | Moreover families, otherwise barren, are provided with offspring; and is not this an advantage and not a loss? |
11248 | Moreover, is not this love carnal? |
11248 | Moreover, what is conjugial love but heat, which becomes virtue or potency, if the heat supplied from the sun be added to it?" |
11248 | Moreover, without these three doctrines there can be no religion: for does not religion relate to life? |
11248 | Must he not learn to walk and to speak? |
11248 | Must not the love of the one know and acknowledge the love of the other, so that when they meet they may unite of themselves? |
11248 | Nevertheless I was still urgent, and said,"What is more detestable than for a man to mix his soul with the soul of a husband in his wife? |
11248 | Nevertheless all the three, infatuated by their own intelligence, burned with a desire to eat of it, and said to each other,"Why should not we? |
11248 | On hearing this I asked,"How can any one know whether he performs uses from self- love, or from the love of uses? |
11248 | On hearing this account, some of the ancient_ sophi_ asked,"What were the conjectures and conclusions formed from the circumstances you have related?" |
11248 | On hearing this exclamation, the hundreds of the wise ones turned themselves, and said one among another with loud laughter,"Is this gross stupidity? |
11248 | On hearing this, I asked the two angels from what society of heaven they were? |
11248 | On hearing this, I asked,"What he meant by the darkness of the north, the fires of the west, and the delusive lights of the south?" |
11248 | On hearing this, the two young novitiates rejoiced, and said,"There still exists in heaven a love of the sex; what else is conjugial love?" |
11248 | On seeing him I was alarmed, and cried out,"Approach no nearer; tell me, whence are you?" |
11248 | On seeing this, the conducting angel followed them, and asked why they retired so suddenly without entering into conversation? |
11248 | On the ancients in Greece, who inquired of strangers, What news from the earth? |
11248 | On their consenting, I asked,"How do you wives know that the delights of conjugial love are the same as the delights of wisdom?" |
11248 | One of us five, who is a priest, has also added predestination as a cause of that virtue or potency, saying,''Are not marriages predestinated? |
11248 | Some time ago, when meditating on this subject, I asked the zealous angels concerning the seat of jealousy? |
11248 | Supposing anything of a man to live after death, must it not resemble a spectre? |
11248 | Supposing he never learnt to walk, would he ever stand upright? |
11248 | THIRD, What is signified by the tree of life, and what by the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and what by eating thereof? |
11248 | Take away nature, and can you think at all? |
11248 | Tell us, therefore, how a love, which not only is not from creation, but is also contrary to creation, could possibly exist? |
11248 | The angels asked,"Have the inhabitants of the earth had no previous knowledge respecting correspondences?" |
11248 | The angels inquired whether any other things have been revealed? |
11248 | The angels inquired,"What do they know concerning our world, and concerning heaven and hell?" |
11248 | The angels said,"Did not they know this heretofore?" |
11248 | The angels said,"What concerning the life after death? |
11248 | The angels said,"Who does not know that the delights of conjugial love exceed those of all other loves? |
11248 | The confirmator answered,"Will you, who are a man, think in any case from appearance? |
11248 | The first inquiry shall be, Whether religion be anything? |
11248 | The first, who were determined adulterers, replied,"What is God?" |
11248 | The men on seeing us hastened towards us and said,"Whence are you; and how came you here? |
11248 | The president answered,"WHAT NEWS IS THERE FROM THE EARTH CONCERNING OUR WORLD AND HEAVEN?" |
11248 | The satyrs who as to the feet appeared as panthers, spoke concerning NATURE, and said,"What is there but nature? |
11248 | The second, who were confirmed adulterers, said,"Are not all things of nature? |
11248 | The strangers on hearing of judicial proceedings in heaven, said,"To what purpose are such proceedings? |
11248 | The three novitiates, on hearing this, asked,"Does a similar love exist between married partners in the heavens as in the earths?" |
11248 | The three novitiates, on hearing this, said,"Is it not written in the Word, that in heaven they are not given in marriage, because they are angels?" |
11248 | Then I desired to know their opinion concerning the first article of inquiry, Whether religion be anything? |
11248 | Then a certain wise personage, one of the marriage- guests, said,"Do you understand the meaning of what you have seen?" |
11248 | Then addressing myself to one that was entering, I asked,"What house is this?" |
11248 | Then he spoke openly and from the heart, and said,"What is truth? |
11248 | Then they were asked,"What connection have joys and delights and the happiness thence resulting, with a state of inactivity? |
11248 | Then we asked,"What are your religious notions respecting marriages?" |
11248 | There were some canons present, whom I asked whether those had really been popes? |
11248 | There were three arcana, FIRST, What is the image of God, and what the likeness of God, into which man(_ homo_) was created? |
11248 | These looked into my eyes most shrewdly; upon which I asked them,"Why do you do so?" |
11248 | These were running to and fro like wild beasts, crying out,"Where are the women?" |
11248 | They asked again,"Why did not you men stand by the bridegroom, now the husband, as the six virgins stood by the bride, now the wife?" |
11248 | They asked me,"Who taught you to question us respecting the delights of that love? |
11248 | They asked us,"Who let you in through the grove?" |
11248 | They asked,"What are they?" |
11248 | They asked,"What?" |
11248 | They began with the first subject of inquiry, WHAT IS THE IMAGE OF GOD, AND WHAT THE LIKENESS OF GOD, INTO WHICH MAN WAS CREATED? |
11248 | They further asked,"Since he represented the Lord, and she the church, why did she sit at his right hand?" |
11248 | They replied, that they had attended only to the sound of their voices, and not to the matter; and what is it? |
11248 | They replied,"But little;"and then they asked him,"Why was the bridegroom, who is now a husband, dressed in that particular manner?" |
11248 | They replied,"What is sin? |
11248 | They replied,"What is the Decalogue? |
11248 | They replied,"Who ever came up thence to give us information?" |
11248 | They then asked,"What is the meaning of so many tables?" |
11248 | They were next asked, Whether they saw any good in marriage, and any evil in adultery? |
11248 | They were then asked,"What is your delight?" |
11248 | They were two married partners from heaven, and they accosted me; and because I was musing on what I had just seen, they inquired,"What did you see?" |
11248 | Those who as to the feet appeared like calves, spoke concerning MARRIAGES, and said,"What are marriages but licit adulteries? |
11248 | To reason only whether a thing be, is it not like reasoning about a cap or a shoe, whether they fit or not, before they are put on? |
11248 | To which the angelic spirits replied,"Look up into heaven and you will receive an answer:"and they asked,"Why are we to look up into heaven?" |
11248 | We ask therefore now in the first place, What is meant by the third proceeding divine essential, which is called use?" |
11248 | We followed them; and they asked us whence we came, and what was our business there? |
11248 | We inquired,"What lot?" |
11248 | We next requested him to tell us from his heart, whether he was in joke, or whether he really believed that nothing is true but what a man makes true? |
11248 | We then asked him what he was now writing? |
11248 | We then asked,"Which of you?" |
11248 | We then civilly requested him to tell us, what lay concealed within, which excited his fears? |
11248 | We then said,"Were you not born men of reason; whence then have you this visionary infatuation?" |
11248 | What are heat and light without that which contains them? |
11248 | What are light and darkness but a state of the eye? |
11248 | What are they all without the sun; or how could they subsist a single moment in the sun''s absence? |
11248 | What can be more anxious and miserable than such an expectation? |
11248 | What changes has wisdom undergone? |
11248 | What constitutes beauty of countenance, but red and white, and the lovely mixture thereof with each other? |
11248 | What distinction is there between a man and a beast, except that a man can speak articulately and a beast sonorously? |
11248 | What do you say? |
11248 | What else can constitute heavenly joys, but the variations of such pleasures to eternity?" |
11248 | What harm can come to a wife from admitting several rivals? |
11248 | What has the sun, in which nature originates, in common with a form of government which vies with and is similar to a heavenly one? |
11248 | What have we men to do with that childish pamphlet?" |
11248 | What human being knows what love is? |
11248 | What is a wife but a harlot? |
11248 | What is beauty but the delight of the sight? |
11248 | What is become of those palaces and magnificent objects? |
11248 | What is become of those paradisiacal objects?" |
11248 | What is conjugial love but the love of the sex? |
11248 | What is it that keeps the whole bodily system in its due expansion and tension, but the tension of the mind? |
11248 | What is life but love and wisdom? |
11248 | What is life with one woman only, but captivity and imprisonment? |
11248 | What is love without wisdom but a mere infatuation? |
11248 | What is marriage but allowed adultery? |
11248 | What is more obvious than that nature is all in all? |
11248 | What is religion but a device to catch and bind the vulgar?" |
11248 | What is sweeter than promiscuous liberty, variety, deflorations, schemes to deceive husbands, and plans of adulterous hypocrisy? |
11248 | What is that which you do not see?'' |
11248 | What is the blackness then which envelops it but a shade, which ought not to determine the raven''s color? |
11248 | What is the human body but an organ of life? |
11248 | What is the human soul but such a form? |
11248 | What is the soul, or where is it in the interim? |
11248 | What is there above nature but the sun?" |
11248 | What is use but the actual love of our neighbor? |
11248 | What law and what judge imputes a like criminality to the fornicator as to the adulterer? |
11248 | What maiden can know that new state before she is in it? |
11248 | What man of uncorrupted reason does not see that such instincts are not communicated to bees from the natural world? |
11248 | What matters it whether we know these things or not? |
11248 | What then is light but the state of the eye? |
11248 | What woman in such case can unite her love to what is cold; and what man can unite the insanity of his haughtiness to the love of intelligence? |
11248 | What would society be if there were no public judicature, and if every one did not exercise his judgement respecting another? |
11248 | What young man, if this be the case, can possibly wish for heaven? |
11248 | What youth can love any other maiden than the one who loves him in return? |
11248 | When I had observed this, an angel presented himself, and said,"Do you understand what you have seen?" |
11248 | When I had thus spoken, the two angels asked me,"How could evil exist, when nothing but good had existed from creation? |
11248 | When he heard of the difference between what is spiritual and what is natural, he said,"What do you mean by that difference? |
11248 | When he observed that he was in the spiritual world, he immediately asked where heaven and hell were, and also their nature and quality? |
11248 | When he saw these things, he was amazed, and said,"What do I see? |
11248 | When silence was obtained, they were addressed by a kind of president of the assembly, and asked,"WHAT NEWS FROM THE EARTH?" |
11248 | When this vigor fails, must not the love itself also fail and grow cold? |
11248 | Whence are the senses of these organs but from life, and their forms but from nature? |
11248 | Whence is a man(_ homo_) a man but from wisdom? |
11248 | Where am I? |
11248 | Where were those things previous to the sun''s existence? |
11248 | While I was thus amazed at the great multitude of such persons, there stood near me an angel, who asked me,"What is the subject of your meditation?" |
11248 | Who can convert concupiscence, which is innate in every man, into such chastity, thus into somewhat not itself, and yet love? |
11248 | Who can draw the conclusion, that he that has committed fornication can not be more chaste in marriage? |
11248 | Who can love what is not love? |
11248 | Who can measure its quality and quantity? |
11248 | Who does not foresee, that if the women courted the men, they would seldom be accepted? |
11248 | Who does not grow tired of one? |
11248 | Who does not know that a man lives after death?" |
11248 | Who does not know that whatever a man does in the beginning, is from concupiscence, because from the natural man? |
11248 | Who does not know what delight is? |
11248 | Who does not know, that he that is an adulterer is not on that account a murderer, a thief, and a false witness, or wishes to be so? |
11248 | Who does not know, that the body does not act of itself, but the will by the body? |
11248 | Who does not see that such gesticulators are men only as to external figure, and not as to internal form? |
11248 | Who does not see that this is contrary to the laws of nature? |
11248 | Who does not see, that unless a man was allowed to judge respecting the moral life of those who live with him in the world, society would perish? |
11248 | Who else is to be approached, and who else can be? |
11248 | Who has ever contemplated it with any idea of thought? |
11248 | Who has ever seen it with the eye? |
11248 | Who knows any distinction between them? |
11248 | Who sees God? |
11248 | Who sees them? |
11248 | Who would not swear from them that it is so? |
11248 | Who, but a person of vile character, can fulfil the duties of the conjugial bed, and at the same time have commerce with a strumpet? |
11248 | Why did God permit this?" |
11248 | Why did you not question our husbands?" |
11248 | Why do not you ask, whether we live with one harlot? |
11248 | Why is a plurality of wives denied us, when yet it has been granted, and at this day is granted in the whole world about us? |
11248 | Why therefore do those three priests preach that adulterers have no acknowledgement of God? |
11248 | Wondering at all this, I looked up into heaven, and inquired where those horsemen were going? |
11248 | Wondering what this could mean, I speedily left the house, and asked one of those who were running, what was the matter at the palace? |
11248 | also that the mouth does not speak of itself, but the thought by the mouth? |
11248 | also, who can rightly perceive discordant and grating sounds, but he that is well versed in the doctrine and study of harmonious numbers? |
11248 | and are not these things appertaining to a man in his soul, and by derivation from the soul in his head and body? |
11248 | and are they incapable on that account of acknowledging and worshipping God? |
11248 | and consequently, is not faith of charity, and charity of faith? |
11248 | and do you not hold it forth as a bait and enticement to accede to your new opinions? |
11248 | and he replied,"How can you say so, when we absolutely seem to ourselves, and are also acknowledged by each other, to have such distinction?" |
11248 | and how can a man do the latter and shun the former but as from himself? |
11248 | and how can a spectre eat and drink, or how can it enjoy conjugial delights? |
11248 | and if it be a state of the eye, is not light darkness, and darkness light? |
11248 | and in Paul, that adulterers can by no means enter heaven?" |
11248 | and in proportion as that affection grows warm, do not they also grow warm in the same degree? |
11248 | and in what does this delight originate but in the sport of love and wisdom? |
11248 | and is not he that is insane from false principles, entirely possessed with an imagination that he is wiser than he that is wise from truths? |
11248 | and is not it hell where any one is a servant: and is not he a servant who is obliged to keep to one?" |
11248 | and is not life in the whole and in every part?" |
11248 | and is not the red derived from love, and the white from wisdom? |
11248 | and is not their natural light, which only enlightens the bodily sight, become brightness to them? |
11248 | and is there not there and nowhere else a constant succession of satisfactions and pleasures? |
11248 | and they said,"What are polygamical marriages? |
11248 | and this being the case, are not the progeny thence issuing and the means conducive thereto, predestinated also?'' |
11248 | and what do I smell now? |
11248 | and what has a carnal principle in common with the spiritual state of the church? |
11248 | and what holds the heavens together with this love?" |
11248 | and what is an essence without a form, but an imaginary entity? |
11248 | and what is life but to shun evils and do goods? |
11248 | and what is love with wisdom without use, but a puff of the mind? |
11248 | and what is more delightful than to set the love at liberty? |
11248 | and what is nature but their recipient, whereby they may produce their effects or uses? |
11248 | and what is sweeter than adulterous hypocrisies, and the making fools of husbands?" |
11248 | and what the flesh does from the spirit, is not that spiritual? |
11248 | and when I asked him concerning these words what he heard, he said,"I heard,''Do you know that those who are in heaven are wise from truths?''" |
11248 | and when the latter words were spoken to him from behind, he said that he heard,"Do you know that those who are in hell, are insane from falses?" |
11248 | and whence comes the tension of the mind but from administrations and employments, while the discharge of them is attended with delight? |
11248 | and who but the vulgar and common herd of mankind acknowledges what he does not see and understand? |
11248 | and who can discern the various kinds of insanity, but he that is wise, or that knows what wisdom is? |
11248 | and who is not revived by several? |
11248 | and who knows what is unchaste, dishonorable, unbecoming, and ugly, unless he knows what is chaste, honorable, becoming, and beautiful? |
11248 | and why is there such a vociferation on that account?" |
11248 | are not all in heaven inspired and led by God, and in consequence thereof taught what is just and right? |
11248 | are not all things relating to love and all things relating to wisdom essentials of that form? |
11248 | at that instant they saw a moth running upon my paper, and asked in surprise what was the name of that nimble little creature? |
11248 | consequently, how can surfaces, which constitute the expanse, produce centres? |
11248 | do you not see that this is true?" |
11248 | does not he that lives well also believe well? |
11248 | for what is spiritual but that which is natural in a higher state of purity?" |
11248 | he answered,"He is still my servant; what is an emperor before God? |
11248 | he replied,"There I am a devil, but here I am an angel of light: do you not see that my head is surrounded by a lucid sphere? |
11248 | he replied,"What shall I say? |
11248 | how came this bird of night here?'' |
11248 | how can two contraries appear true?" |
11248 | in like manner, who can clearly discern what is the quality of adultery, unless he has first clearly discerned what is the quality of marriage? |
11248 | is it not a stench? |
11248 | is it not like the difference between what is more or less pure? |
11248 | is it not straw and dry wood? |
11248 | of the decalogue? |
11248 | the fifth, Whether there be eternal life after death?" |
11248 | the fourth, Whether there be a heaven and a hell? |
11248 | the garments were resplendent as with a flaming light; and on their asking the angel,"Whence is this?" |
11248 | the second, Whether there be such a thing as salvation or not? |
11248 | the third, Whether one religion be more efficacious than another? |
11248 | there appeared as it were lakes of fire and brimstone; and I asked him, why the hells in that quarter had such an appearance? |
11248 | they said,"Every one;"and we asked,"How every one? |
11248 | they said,"Where is the sin? |
11248 | what is a female?" |
11248 | what is to hinder me? |
11248 | what need then is there of judges?" |
11248 | whence can it have clothes, houses, meats,& c.? |
11248 | whence do you procure parchment and paper, pens and ink?" |
11248 | who conceives that God governs, and can govern the universe, with everything belonging thereto? |
11248 | who understands what God is? |
