36641 | ''Oh? 36641 ''Shall we let the dog loose to- night?'' |
36641 | ''Where are you going? 36641 ''You, ma''am,''I falter, with a vague uneasiness impossible to describe;''are you not the housekeeper?'' |

36641 | ''Can you still love me, Janet?'' |
36641 | ''Eh?'' |
36641 | ''How dare you speak so of Papa? |
36641 | ''What''s the use? |
36641 | ..."''Too shabby?'' |
36641 | Also, would Hetty have been alone in her cell? |
36641 | Am I a basilisk? |
36641 | And in what way had her mind been influenced by the surroundings of her childhood and girlhood? |

36641 | And we are half of the world, and where is the provision for us? |
36641 | And what more, Bab? |
36641 | And-- were there any night schools for illiterate men in 1799? |
36641 | Are you dumb, child?'' |
36641 | But she never has cause to say,"Story? |
36641 | But what could any woman expect from a man who could write such a love- letter as that of Mr. Casaubon''s? |
36641 | But where is the logic of making her"carry on"as she did when she received the diamonds on her wedding- day? |

36641 | If it were disposed of to a travelling agent for the hand- loom weavers, why not have indicated the fact? |
36641 | Is it because she has nobody to defend her that she has been treated thus barbarously? |
36641 | Is that the thing you expect us women to marry? |
36641 | Mercy alive, then why do n''t she eat? |
36641 | Must the women wait and long and see their lives thrown away, and have no power to save themselves? |
36641 | Not a word?'' |
36641 | Nothing? |

37955 | I asked,"a daughter?" |
37955 | I enclose you Hookham''s note; what do you think of it? |
37955 | I have only time left to scrawl you a hasty adieu, and am affectionately yours, J. W. Why do you talk of never enjoying moments like the past? |
37955 | I will learn Greek and----but when shall we meet when I may tell you all this, and you will so sweetly reward me? |
37955 | I wish to know, though not from idle curiosity, whether he was capable of acting in the manner that the London scandal- mongers say he did? |
37955 | If circumstances get easy, do n''t you think Papa and Mamma will go down to the seaside to get up their health a little? |
37955 | If they are not to be published, may I see them in manuscript? |
37955 | Is Claire with you? |
37955 | Is his face as fine as in your portrait of him, or is it more like the other portrait of him? |
37955 | Is it possible that she loves me less than the others do? |
37955 | Is this the way, my beloved, we are to live till the 6th? |
37955 | MY DEAR MARY-- I arrived last night-- won''t you come and see me to- day? |
37955 | MY DEAR MRS. GISBORNE-- Well, how do you get on? |
37955 | Mary ought to know what is said of the novel, and how can she know that without all the rest? |
37955 | Mr. Baxter proceeds-- Is there any wonder that I should become attached to such a man, holding out the hand of kindness and friendship towards me? |
37955 | My dearest Shelley, be not, I entreat you, too self- negligent; yet what can you do? |
37955 | My poor little Clara; how is she to- day? |
37955 | Need I say that the union between my husband and myself has ever been undisturbed? |
37955 | Now to business-- Is the Magni House taken? |
37955 | Now, my dear, when shall I see you? |
37955 | Pray, is Clara with you? |
37955 | Shall I ever be my own man again? |
37955 | Shall this ever have an end? |
37955 | Shelley was dead; and how then explain to the Hoppners why the letter had not been sent before? |
37955 | Tell me truth, my sweetest, do you ever cry? |
37955 | Tell me, shall you be happy to have another little squaller? |
37955 | The Cancelliere, a talkative buffoon of a Florentine, with"mille scuse per l''incomodo,"asked,"Dove fu lei la sera del 24 marzo? |
37955 | The Dormouse has hid the brooch; and, pray, why am I for ever and ever to be denied the sight of my case? |
37955 | This nice little gentleman exclaimed,"Shall we endure this man''s insolence?" |
37955 | Was he not at that moment making himself debtor to a man whose integrity he doubted? |
37955 | Was it possible this mild- looking beardless boy could be the veritable monster at war with all the world? |
37955 | We have Taafe, who bores us out of our senses when he comes, telling a young lady that her eyes shed flowers-- why therefore should he send her any? |
37955 | We pay four crowns a month for her master, lessons three times a week; cheap work this, is it not? |
37955 | What am I to do? |
37955 | What are you reading? |
37955 | What can this mean? |
37955 | What could she now say or do to cheer Godwin? |
37955 | What do they mean? |
37955 | What do you know of Hunt? |
37955 | What does Henry do? |
37955 | What does this mean? |
37955 | What have I said? |
37955 | What is Shelley writing? |
37955 | What is it you want that you have not? |
37955 | What is to be done? |
37955 | What shall I, what can I, what ought I to do? |
37955 | What signifies what becomes of the few wretched years that remain? |
37955 | What think you of remaining at Pisa? |
37955 | What think you of this? |
37955 | What was left for her? |
37955 | What was to become of her? |
37955 | When shall we be free of treachery? |
37955 | When will they come to England? |
37955 | Where the blue empyrean? |
37955 | Where would or could she be sent? |
37955 | Who was Mary herself, that she should withstand one whom she felt to be the best as well as the cleverest man she had ever known? |
37955 | Who would have imagined this?... |
37955 | Whose was this child? |
37955 | Why can not I be with you, to cheer you and press you to my heart? |
37955 | Why should flowers be sent to you? |
37955 | Why should your prime of youthful vigour be tarnished and made wretched by what relates to me? |
37955 | Why will Godwin not follow the obvious bent of his affections, and be reconciled to us? |
37955 | Will it serve for our spring adventure? |
37955 | Will this hot summer conduce to a better state or not? |
37955 | Will you attend to my requests? |
37955 | Yet what shall I write? |
37955 | You know Shelley, you saw his face, and could you believe them? |
37955 | You say nothing of the late arrest, and what may be the consequences, and may they not detain you? |
37955 | You will say, shall we neglect taking a house-- a dear home? |
37955 | [ 46]_ Monday, February 25._--What a mart this world is? |
37955 | _ Is all this true?_ Not a little amused, Mary answered her friend as follows-- PISA,_ 7th March 1822_. |
37955 | and how are you, and how do you get on with your book? |
37955 | and may you not be detained many months? |
37955 | and what are you doing? |
37955 | and your own poem-- have you fixed on a name? |
37955 | dearest, is it so? |
37955 | if there was a sacrifice in her power to make for him, was not that the greatest joy, the greatest honour that life could have in store for her? |
37955 | my love, you have no friends; why, then, should you be torn from the only one who has affection for you? |
37955 | or is she coming? |
37955 | or was she to be conveniently forgotten and left behind? |
37955 | or where is it? |
37955 | that time is a weight to me? |
37955 | when shall we see you again? |
37955 | why could no presentiment warn them of impending calamity? |
15045 | ''And art thou dead? 15045 ''And did she ever get out of jail again, Sir?'' |
15045 | ''And pray what became of her, Sir?'' 15045 ''And, for heaven''s sake, how came you to know her?'' |
15045 | ''Bet Flint,''cried Mrs. Thrale;''pray who is she?'' 15045 ''But surely,''said Mrs. Thrale,''if you fail, you will think yourself bound in honour to marry her yourself?'' |
15045 | ''What''s that you say, Madam?'' 15045 ''Why do you delight,''said he,''thus to thicken the gloom of misery that surrounds me? |
15045 | Are they not charming? |
15045 | But can this be possible? 15045 But once again: I am guardian to five girls; agreed: will this connection prejudice their bodies, souls, or purse? |
15045 | But who is this astride the pony, So long, so lean, so lank, so bony? 15045 During a moment he then fixed upon her an interrogative eye, that impetuously demanded:''Do you not perceive the change I am experiencing?'' |
15045 | I then said,''Do you ever, Sir, hear, from her mother?'' 15045 Mr. Thrale talks now of going to Spa and Italy again; how shall we drag him thither? |
15045 | My poor little boy from Lombardy said as I walked him across our market,''These are sheeps''heads, are they not, aunt? 15045 Susan and Sophy said nothing at all, but they taught the two young ones to cry''Where are you going, mama? |
15045 | What restraint can he mean? 15045 What then, Sir, becomes of Demosthenes''saying, Action, action, action?" |
15045 | What was my marriage, Sir, to_ you_ or_ him?__ He_ tell me what to do!--a pretty whim! 15045 Will it do this way in English, Sir? |
15045 | _ Boswell_.--But suppose now, Sir, that one of your intimate friends were apprehended for an offence for which he might be hanged? 15045 _ Boswell_.--Would you eat your dinner that day, Sir? |
15045 | _ Who_ would have said a word about Sam''s wig, Or told the story of the peas and pig? 15045 _ Who_, from M''Donald''s rage to save his snout, Cut twenty lines of defamation out?" |
15045 | _ Who_, madd''ning with an anecdotic itch, Declar''d that Johnson call''d his mother_ b- tch?_MADAME PIOZZI. |
15045 | ''But where,''cries Cuzzona,''is the loaf I spoke for?'' |
15045 | ''Harry,''said his father to her son,''are you listening to what the doctor and mamma are talking about?'' |
15045 | ''How''s this?'' |
15045 | ''Is she indeed?'' |
15045 | ''Nor write to me?'' |
15045 | ''What for, Ma''am?'' |
15045 | ''What, the little Sophy!--and why?'' |
15045 | ''Why what can_ he_ fear,''says Baretti, placing himself between''em,''that holds two such hands as I do?'' |
15045 | ''Why, Sir,''said the old man,''why should not Flea bite o''me be treated as Phlebotomy? |

15045 | And are you not delighted with his gaiety of manners and youthful vivacity now that he is eighty- six years old? |
15045 | And quoth Mr. Thrale,''What are they saying?'' |
15045 | And what is to become of me, my lord, who feel myself actually disgraced?" |
15045 | And who would feed with the poor that can help it? |
15045 | Are you acquainted with Dr. Lee, the master of Baliol College? |
15045 | Boswell''s book is coming out, and the wits expect me to tremble: what will the fellow say? |
15045 | But a better reason is given by Mrs. Thrale:"I asked him why he doated on a coach so? |
15045 | But what signifies it? |
15045 | Can it injure their fortunes? |
15045 | Che tagliare speranze Ben tutto si puo, Per piaceri goduti Oh, questo poi no? |
15045 | Conway?" |
15045 | Could they have done so, had they tried? |
15045 | Could you have a better purveyor for a little scandal? |
15045 | Dear Lady Mary, prythee tell Why thus by loving him too well You kill your Pacchierotti? |
15045 | Do tossing and goring come within the definition of severity? |
15045 | Do you respect a rope- dancer or a ballad- singer?" |
15045 | Does mother- love its charge prepare? |
15045 | Had Johnson forgotten Swift''s lines on Celia? |
15045 | Hannah More met him during this visit to Oxford, and writes, June 13th, 1782:"Who do you think is my principal cicerone at Oxford? |
15045 | Has he cut his own throat?'' |
15045 | He is the man in the world, I think, whom I most abhor, and who_ hates_ and_ professes_ to_ hate me_ the most; but what does that signifie? |
15045 | Her answer was,''To please the gentlemen, to be sure; for what other purpose could it be given me?" |
15045 | How do we know that these circumstances really belong to it? |
15045 | How shall I get through? |
15045 | How shall I get through? |
15045 | How shall any man deserve fortune, if he does not? |
15045 | How, indeed, could they be restrained?" |
15045 | I asked him why? |
15045 | I have always sacrificed my own choice to that of others, so I must sacrifice it again: but why? |
15045 | I will draw in my expenses, lay by every shilling I can to pay off debts and mortgages, and perhaps-- who knows? |
15045 | If I accustom a servant to tell a lie for me, have I not reason to apprehend that he will tell many lies for himself?" |
15045 | If I bring children by him, must they not be Catholics, and must not I live among people the_ ritual_ part of whose religion I disapprove? |
15045 | In May 17, 1773:"Why should Mr. T---- suppose, that what I took the liberty of suggesting was concerted with you? |
15045 | In birth? |
15045 | In the Conway Notes, she says:"Had we vexations enough? |

15045 | In virtue? |

15045 | Is he dumb? |
15045 | Is he upon oath in narrating an anecdote? |
15045 | Is it my fault or theirs?" |
15045 | Is it the true one? |
15045 | Is not the man of whom I desire protection, a foreigner? |
15045 | It does? |
15045 | James Boswell, what''s_ that world_ to_ me?_ The folks who paid respects to Mistress Thrale, Fed on her pork, poor souls! |

15045 | Miss Seward writes to Mrs. Knowles, April, 1788:"And now what say you to the last publication of your sister wit, Mrs. Piozzi? |
15045 | On the other hand, is his life a good one? |
15045 | Opposite Boswell''s account of this incident she has written,"Was he not right in hating to be so treated? |
15045 | Or what becomes of damage and divorces?"] |
15045 | Piozzi_? |
15045 | Shall we ever exchange confidence by the fireside again?" |
15045 | She has written opposite these lines,"Whose fun was this? |
15045 | She would not have been"mortally afraid of the Doctor''s coming,"if she had already thrown him off and finally broken with him? |
15045 | She writes opposite:"Whose silly fun was this? |

15045 | The exclamation"When shall I revisit Streatham?" |
15045 | The lack of literary and public interest is admitted and excused:[ Footnote 1:"Do you keep my letters? |
15045 | The most galling was in a letter of hers to Dr. Johnson:"How does Dr. Taylor do? |
15045 | Thrale_.--But how do you get your dinners drest? |
15045 | Was I not fortunate to see myself once quit of a man like this? |
15045 | Was then the man my mother chose for me of higher extraction than him I have chosen for myself? |
15045 | We are not_ people of fashion_ though you know, nor at all rich; so how should we set fashions for our betters? |
15045 | Were I not sensible of her goodness, and full of incurable affection for her, should I not be a monster? |
15045 | What friends can I have in London? |
15045 | What shall I do?" |
15045 | What shall we do for him? |
15045 | What''s the meaning of this? |
15045 | What, however, is my state? |
15045 | When a Lincolnshire lady, shewing Johnson a grotto, asked him:"Would it not be a pretty cool habitation in summer?" |
15045 | When the Duchess of Montespan asked the famous Louison D''Arquien, by way of insult, as she pressed too near her,''_ Comment alloit le metier_?'' |
15045 | When the bonny blade carouses, Pockets full, and spirits high-- What are acres? |
15045 | Where have you lived? |
15045 | Who did you know in Litchfield in your youth? |
15045 | Who would have told a tale so very flat, Of Frank the Black, and Hodge the mangy cat?" |
15045 | Why Croker- like curiosity? |
15045 | Why how do they manage without? |
15045 | Why is it worse than viper''s sting, To see them clap, or hear her sing? |
15045 | Why is it, that whatever you see, and whoever you see, you are to be so indiscriminately lavish of praise?'' |
15045 | Why should they not have a cherry, or a gooseberry, as well as bigger children?'' |
15045 | Why the full opera should he shun? |
15045 | Will his company or companions corrupt their morals? |
15045 | Will it not, Sir?" |
15045 | Will you send me anything better from Oxford than this? |
15045 | Would it not be painful to owe his appearance of regard more to his honour than his love? |
15045 | Would not that make one laugh two hours before one''s own death? |
15045 | Yet nothing she could say could put a stop to,"How can you defend her in this? |

15045 | _ What then_? |
15045 | and is anything else affected by the alliance? |
15045 | and is not my person, already faded, likelier to fade sooner, than his? |
15045 | and would he not have been right to have loved me better than any of them, because I never did make a Lyon of him?" |
15045 | cried Mrs. Thrale,''how can all these vagabonds contrive to get at_ you_, of all people?'' |

15045 | or the repudiation of the divine nature by Ermodotus, which occurs twice in Plutarch? |

15045 | to their pride and prejudice? |
15045 | unskilled in the laws and language of our country? |
15045 | what are houses? |
15045 | what essential difference do they make? |

37956 | ***** What says the world to Moore''s_ Lord Byron_? |
37956 | *****_ Au revoir!_ To what am I reserved? |
37956 | Absorbed in my own thoughts, what am I then in this world if my spirit live not to learn and become better? |
37956 | Adieu.--Your attached friend, M. W. S. Have you got my books on shore from the_ Bolivar_? |
37956 | Am I right? |
37956 | Am I to close the eyes of our boy, and then join you? |
37956 | Amidst so much that is beautiful and imaginative and exalting, why leave spots which, believe me, are blemishes? |
37956 | And I begin again? |
37956 | And I must return without a bosom intimate? |
37956 | And I, am I not melancholy? |
37956 | And now the chapter about myself is finished, for what can I say of my present life? |
37956 | And now, what news?... |
37956 | And what are the consequences of the change? |
37956 | And why is this? |
37956 | Any one,--and with all this do you think that I shall marry? |
37956 | Are not you a little too enthusiastic in believing that writers can be much improved by studying my writings? |
37956 | Are you sure that you can get an attachéship? |
37956 | As Hunt has, slurring over the real truth? |
37956 | As to theatres, etc., how can a"lone woman"think of such things? |
37956 | At seventy years of age, what is there worth living for? |
37956 | Autunno bello fosti allora, ed ora bello terribile, malinconico ci sei, ed io, dove sono? |
37956 | But can I express all I feel? |
37956 | But for his smiles, where should I now be? |
37956 | But have I not done so all my life? |
37956 | But have we only discovered each other to lament that we are not united? |
37956 | But how can I aspire to that? |
37956 | But where are the snows of yester- year? |
37956 | But who can control his fate? |
37956 | But who may ignore such things in peace? |
37956 | By what do the fragments cling together? |
37956 | By whom be conquered? |
37956 | Can I forget our evening visits to Diodati? |
37956 | Can I give words to thoughts and feelings that, as a tempest, hurry me along? |
37956 | Can such things be, and overcome us like a summer cloud, without our special wonder?... |
37956 | Can you not get some one to call upon him to ask about the manuscript, and to propose it to some bookseller? |
37956 | Chi lo sa? |
37956 | Cosa vuoi che lo dico?_... |
37956 | Could any but yourself have destroyed such engrossing and passionate love? |
37956 | Could any woman be as lonely? |
37956 | Dear Jane, can I render you happier than you are? |
37956 | Dearest, why is my spirit thus losing all energy? |
37956 | Did Fletcher mention this to you? |
37956 | Do pray tell me Blue Bag''s name,( for what is a man without a name? |
37956 | Do they not all with one voice assert the same? |
37956 | Do you approve of this? |
37956 | Do you go to Greece? |
37956 | Do you remember the day you made that quotation from Shakespeare in our living room at Pisa? |
37956 | Do you remember, when delivering the killing news, you awoke Jane, as Othello awakens Desdemona from her sleep on the sofa? |
37956 | Do you think that I have not felt, that I do not feel all this? |
37956 | Do you think there is any opening among the demagogues for me? |
37956 | Does Hunt stay at Genoa the summer, and what does Lord Byron determine on? |
37956 | Further, is it not rather one of Wilhelm''s kind speeches than of the Uncle''s or the Fair Saint''s? |
37956 | Has any professional man ever been consulted on the subject? |
37956 | Have I a cold heart? |
37956 | Have I any other news for you? |
37956 | Have not people who did not know you taken you for a cunning person? |
37956 | Have you any MS. of Shelley''s or Byron''s to fill up the eight or ten I left blank? |
37956 | Have you ever seen such a presence? |
37956 | Have you given up all idea of shooting? |
37956 | Have you heard from poor dear Clare? |
37956 | Have you heard of Medwin''s book? |
37956 | Have you received the volume of poems? |
37956 | Have you seen Clare? |
37956 | Have you seen Hazlitt''s notes of his travels? |
37956 | Have you seen a book written by a man named Millingen? |
37956 | He said,"Would a month hence do? |
37956 | How are all yours-- Henry and the rest? |
37956 | How are your dogs? |
37956 | How can I, even if it were true? |
37956 | How change my destiny? |
37956 | How could you copy a letter to that"agreeable, unaffected woman, Mrs. Shelley,"without saying a word from yourself to your loving...? |
37956 | How is_ Occhi Turchini_, Thornton the reformed, Johnny the-- what Johnny? |
37956 | How long do you think I shall live? |
37956 | How many have come out? |
37956 | How many, it may be asked, were conscious of any blank when the news reached them that Shelley had been"accidentally drowned"? |
37956 | How was she to write now in such a tone as to avert an answer of that sort? |
37956 | How would you relate them? |
37956 | I do not doubt that; but when? |
37956 | I do not know that I absolutely[ need] it here now, but may run short at last, so, if not inconvenient, will you send it next week? |
37956 | I have been a year in England, and, ungentle England, for what have I to thank you? |
37956 | I read, study, and write; sometimes that takes me out of myself; but to live for no one, to be necessary to none, to know that"Where is now my hope? |
37956 | I settled that we should drive to Casa Lanfranchi, that I should get out, and ask the fearful question of Hunt,"Do you know anything of Shelley?" |
37956 | I should not wonder if fate, without our choice, united us; and who can control his fate? |
37956 | I staggered upstairs; the Guiccioli came to meet me, smiling, while I could hardly say,"Where is he-- Sapete alcuna cosa di Shelley?" |
37956 | I suppose she is the reality of the story; did you know her? |
37956 | I thought of you all-- how much? |
37956 | Iago would never have found a better representative than that strange and wondrous creature whom one regrets daily more,--for who here can equal him? |
37956 | If A crosses B, and C falls upon D, who can weep for that? |
37956 | If this is only the beginning, what may be the end? |
37956 | If you can not be independent, who should be? |
37956 | In Shelley''s words, slightly varied,"How should slaves produce anything but idleness, even as the seed produces the plant?" |
37956 | In those twenty years, what change had come over the spirit of its pages? |
37956 | Is it not best, then, that you forget the unhappy M. W. S.? |
37956 | Is it not so? |
37956 | Is it not strange that so many people admire and relish Shakespeare, and that nobody writes or even attempts to write like him? |
37956 | Is it true that his friend Ulysses is dead? |
37956 | Is my book advertised? |
37956 | Is not Eccelino considered as too free? |
37956 | Is not Peacock very lukewarm and insensible in this affair? |
37956 | Is not_ Adonais_ his own elegy? |
37956 | Is she not a glorious being? |
37956 | Is she not dazzling? |
37956 | Is the instrument so utterly destroyed? |
37956 | Is this the sand that the ever- flowing sea of thought would impress indelibly? |
37956 | Lamb is superannuated-- do you understand? |
37956 | Le moyen de se recontrer_ when one is bound for the North Pole and the other for the South? |
37956 | Lord Cochrane alone can assist them-- but without vessels or money how can he acquire sufficient power? |
37956 | MY DEAR HUNT-- Is it, or is it not, right that these few lines should be addressed to you now? |
37956 | MY DEAR TRELAWNY-- What can you think of me and of my silence? |
37956 | MY DEAREST POLLY-- Are you not a naughty girl? |
37956 | Mary Shelley shall be written on my tomb,--and why? |
37956 | Mary the merry, Irving the sober, Percy the martyr, and dear Sylvan the good? |
37956 | Mary, is my heart human that I endure scenes like this, and live? |
37956 | My poor girl, what do you mean to do with yourself? |
37956 | Nothing new has happened-- what should? |
37956 | Now, my dear friend, what do you advise? |
37956 | Once or twice, pausing in my walk, I have exclaimed in despair,"Is it even so?" |
37956 | One must go to H. Smith, another to me, and to whom else? |
37956 | Pray beg Mary to tell my mother that I wrote to her on or about the 22d of August; has she had this letter? |
37956 | Shall I desire my brother to call on you with respect to Mr. Peter in the Tower? |
37956 | Shall I ever be a philosopher? |
37956 | Shelley, Byron, the blue- eyed William, where were they? |
37956 | Still, who on such a night must not feel the weight of sorrow lessened? |
37956 | That it is but an excuse I allow; the truth would be better, but who nowadays ever thinks of speaking truth? |
37956 | The Guiccioli is gone to Bologna--_e poi cosa farà? |
37956 | The friendship you have for Odysseus, does that satisfy your warm heart?... |
37956 | There is no writhing interest; nothing wonderful nor tragic-- will it be dull? |
37956 | They knocked at the door, and some one called out,_ chi è?_ It was the Guiccioli''s maid. |
37956 | Think you that these moments are counted in my life as in other people''s? |
37956 | This is truly English; half a page about the weather, but here this subject has every importance; is it fine? |
37956 | To what man of business of yours can I consign these? |
37956 | To whom am I a neighbour? |
37956 | To whom cede? |
37956 | Unable to bear this horrid silence, with a convulsive effort she exclaimed--"Is there no hope?" |
37956 | Was not her heart of hearts buried with them? |
37956 | We can but echo Trelawny''s own words to Mary[12]--"Can such things be, and overcome us like a summer cloud, without our especial wonder?" |
37956 | We will talk of our lost ones, and think of realising my dreams; who knows? |
37956 | Well, what more have I to say? |
37956 | What can I care for the parties that divide the world, or the opinions that possess it? |
37956 | What can I do? |
37956 | What could I answer? |
37956 | What could it be to me? |
37956 | What do you mean?" |
37956 | What has my life been? |
37956 | What have been my feelings to- day? |
37956 | What is Hogg''s opinion? |
37956 | What is it in the soil of this green earth that is so ill adapted to the best of its sons? |
37956 | What is it that moves up and down in my soul, and makes me feel as if my intellect could master all but my fate? |
37956 | What is it? |
37956 | What is the use of republican principles and liberty if peace is not the offspring? |
37956 | What is yet in store for me? |
37956 | What matters it that they can not find the grave of my William? |
37956 | What of Florence and the gallery? |
37956 | What shall I do? |
37956 | What should I fear? |
37956 | What signify a few outward adversities if we find a friend at home? |
37956 | What though I weep? |
37956 | What were I, if I did not believe that you still exist? |
37956 | What will become of me? |
37956 | What will become of us, my poor girl? |
37956 | What would one not do for that, since it is the only key of freedom? |
37956 | What would they have done or said had their children been fond of dress, fond of cards, drunken, profligate, as most people''s children are? |
37956 | What would you have done if you had passed through my ordeal? |
37956 | When does Moore conclude his_ Life of Byron_? |
37956 | When shall I hear it again spoken, when see your skies, your trees, your streams? |
37956 | When will the ca nt and humbug of these costermonger times be reformed? |
37956 | When will these heartrending scenes be finished? |
37956 | Where can he be gone?" |
37956 | Where is Jane? |
37956 | Where is that letter in verse Shelley once wrote to you? |
37956 | Where then was the change? |
37956 | Where was Fanny, whose long letters had kept them informed of English affairs? |
37956 | Wherefore write fiction? |
37956 | Who in the world is Miss Northcote? |
37956 | Who will allow money to Ianthe and Charles? |
37956 | Who will undertake to, in the first place, dispose of it, and, in the second, watch its progress through the press? |
37956 | Why am I not beneath that weed- grown tower? |
37956 | Why am I not there? |
37956 | Why can not you answer me, my own one? |
37956 | Why do you not come to me? |
37956 | Why do you not send me a number? |
37956 | Why in this particular case should the law be set aside, which says that no man can dispose of what he has never possessed? |
37956 | Why is this? |
37956 | Why not come over and marry Letitia, who in consequence will be rich? |
37956 | Why should he live in this world of pain and anguish? |
37956 | Why then do you awaken me to thought and suffering by forcing me to explain the motives of my conduct? |
37956 | Will not Hogg assist you? |
37956 | Will the future never cease unrolling new shapes of misery? |
37956 | Will this be a happy New Year? |
37956 | Will you aid in it? |
37956 | Will you be angry with me if I beg you to write the last scene of it? |
37956 | Will you come over and sit for the new parliament? |
37956 | Will you correct it? |
37956 | Will you dine with me Monday after your ride? |
37956 | Will you explain to me one phrase of her letter? |
37956 | Will you give documents? |
37956 | Will you not answer me without delay? |
37956 | Will you not send it? |
37956 | Will you write anecdotes? |
37956 | Will you write soon? |
37956 | Would it be asking too much to lend me the copy you took of my darling William''s portrait, since mine is somewhat injured? |
37956 | Would you allow the publisher to treat with you for their being added to my edition? |
37956 | Would you permit this part to be erased? |
37956 | Yet where can I fall? |
37956 | You are angry with me, but what do you ask, and what do I refuse? |
37956 | You surely do not mean to stay in Italy? |
37956 | _ Chi lo sa?_ We shall see. |
37956 | _ Journal, October 26._--Time rolls on, and what does it bring? |
37956 | _ Journal, September 3._--With what hopes did I come to England? |
37956 | _ P.S._--Do you not guess why neither these nor those I sent you could please those you mention? |
37956 | _ Que voulez vous? |
37956 | _ Saturday._ DEAR MARY-- Will you tell me what sum you want, as I am settling my affairs? |
37956 | and is Mrs. Hunt likely to recover? |
37956 | and is it over? |
37956 | and near whom? |
37956 | and what influence can her death have in bettering their prospects? |
37956 | and what new prospect was afforded her in the future by his promise of doing so now? |
37956 | and where is Roberts? |
37956 | as long as my mother? |
37956 | for my hope, who shall see it? |
37956 | how is she? |
37956 | how write at all? |
37956 | or have you written, and has your letter miscarried, or have not my letters reached you? |
37956 | the good boy? |
37956 | what are you doing? |
37956 | what is your fate to be? |
37956 | who is that has a noble and generous nature? |
37956 | you guess I am happy and enjoying myself; is it as it always is? |
19011 | Do you like London, Miss Bronte? |
19011 | His young reverence,as you tenderly call him, is looking delicate and pale; poor thing, do n''t you pity him? |
19011 | What''s the matter with you now? |
19011 | Who is it, Martha? |
19011 | ''"Is there a human being,"you ask,"so depraved that an act of kindness will not touch-- nay, a word melt him?" |
19011 | ''And Thiers is set aside for a time; but wo n''t they be glad of him by- and- by? |
19011 | ''And have you seen him?'' |
19011 | ''Are the London republicans, and_ you_ amongst the number, cooled down yet? |
19011 | ''Are you satisfied at Cornhill, or the contrary? |
19011 | ''At what time does Mr. Smith intend to bring the book out? |
19011 | ''At what time? |
19011 | ''Can you give me any information respecting Mr. Lewes? |
19011 | ''Can you give me any information respecting Sheridan Knowles? |
19011 | ''Can you tell me anything more on this subject? |
19011 | ''DEAR ELLEN,--Can you come here on Wednesday week( Sept. 6th)? |
19011 | ''DEAR ELLEN,--Who gravely asked you whether Miss Bronte was not going to be married to her papa''s curate? |
19011 | ''DEAR ELLEN,--You will want to know about the leave- taking? |
19011 | ''DEAR NELL,--You may well ask, how is it? |
19011 | ''Did I not say that I would have gone to this theatre and witnessed this exhibition if it had been in my power? |
19011 | ''Did I tell you that our poor little Flossy is dead? |
19011 | ''Did your son Frank call on Mrs. Gaskell? |
19011 | ''Do you not think, my dear Miss Wooler, that you could come to Haworth before you go to the coast? |
19011 | ''Do you think in a few weeks it will be possible for you to come to see me? |
19011 | ''Do you think this book will tend to strengthen the idea that Currer Bell is a woman, or will it favour a contrary opinion? |
19011 | ''Have I lectured enough? |
19011 | ''Have I told you how much better Mr. Nicholls is? |
19011 | ''Have you lit your pipe with Mr. Weightman''s valentine?'' |
19011 | ''Have you not two classes of writers-- the author and the bookmaker? |
19011 | ''How are you getting on, dear Nell, and how are all at Brookroyd? |
19011 | ''How are_ you_? |
19011 | ''How could my dear friend so cruelly disappoint me? |
19011 | ''How could you imagine your last letter offended me? |
19011 | ''How did you get on at the Oratorio? |
19011 | ''How has your tic been lately? |
19011 | ''How is_ Shirley_ getting on, and what is now the general feeling respecting the work? |
19011 | ''I read your letter with dismay, Ellen-- what shall I do without you? |
19011 | ''Is the first chapter disgusting or vulgar? |
19011 | ''Is the forthcoming critique on Mr. Thackeray''s writings in the_ Edinburgh Review_ written by Mr. Lewes? |
19011 | ''Is the morning slow in coming? |
19011 | ''MY DEAR ELLEN,--Will you write as soon as you get this and fix your own day for coming to Haworth? |
19011 | ''MY DEAR MRS. GASKELL,--Would it suit you if I were to come next Thursday, the 21st? |
19011 | ''MY DEAR SAUCY PAT,--Now do n''t you think you deserve this epithet far more than I do that which you have given me? |
19011 | ''My sister Anne sends the accompanying answer to the letter received through you the other day; will you be kind enough to post it? |
19011 | ''Now, dear Nell, when can you come to Haworth? |
19011 | ''Shall I reply to her note in the affirmative? |
19011 | ''So circumstanced, my dear sir, what claim have I on your friendship, what right to the comfort of your letters? |
19011 | ''Tell me, whether is it winter? |
19011 | ''What is your name, my little fellow?'' |
19011 | ''What makes you say that the notice in the_ Westminster Review_ is not by Mr. Lewes? |
19011 | ''What shall I say about the twenty numbers of splendid engravings laid cozily at the bottom? |
19011 | ''Where did the girls get the books which they read so continually? |
19011 | ''Why are we to be divided? |
19011 | ''Why?'' |
19011 | ''Will the inclosed dedication suffice? |
19011 | ''You are to say no more about"Jupiter"and"Venus"--what do you mean by such heathen trash? |
19011 | ''You asked whether Miss Martineau made me a convert to mesmerism? |
19011 | ''You mention the_ Leader_; what do you think of it? |
19011 | 6d.? |
19011 | About what time will you be likely to get here, and how will you come? |
19011 | After the lecture somebody came behind me, leaned over the bench, and said,"Will you permit me, as a Yorkshireman, to introduce myself to you?" |
19011 | Am I the person best qualified to make him happy? |
19011 | Am I too dogmatical in saying this? |
19011 | Am I wrong in supposing that critique to be written by Mr. Fonblanque? |
19011 | And are you not making yourselves causelessly uneasy on the subject? |
19011 | And for her sin, is it not one of those which God and not man must judge? |
19011 | And how do you contrive to get your letters under the address of Mr. Bell? |
19011 | And how should they know better? |
19011 | And is not the latter more prolific than the former? |
19011 | And what did Miss Wooler say to the proposal of being at the wedding? |
19011 | And will you, sir, stretch your past kindness by telling me whether I should amend and pursue the work or let it rest in peace? |
19011 | And yet, when this is acknowledged, how can one say that the picture was too gloomy? |
19011 | Are there no such men as the Helstones and Yorkes? |
19011 | Are these his failings? |
19011 | Are you dead? |
19011 | Are you going with me? |
19011 | Are you ill? |
19011 | Are you in better health and spirits, and does Anne continue to be pretty well? |
19011 | Are you married? |
19011 | Are you sure of this? |
19011 | Be thankful that God gave you sense, for what are beauty, wealth, or even health without it? |
19011 | But I must stop-- have I already said too much? |
19011 | But again I asked myself two questions: Do I love him as much as a woman ought to love the man she marries? |
19011 | But does such reality now exist? |
19011 | But has not every house its trial? |
19011 | But what could the people do? |
19011 | But what nonsense am I writing? |
19011 | But why, it may be asked, was Mrs. Gaskell selected as biographer? |
19011 | By coach to Keighley, or by a gig all the way to Haworth? |
19011 | By the way, having got your secret, will he keep it? |
19011 | Can it be the air of London which disagrees with you? |
19011 | Can they set aside entirely anything so clever, so subtle, so accomplished, so aspiring-- in a word, so thoroughly French, as he is? |
19011 | Can you come on Friday next? |
19011 | Can you tell me what has caused the change in Mary''s plans, and brought her so suddenly back to England? |
19011 | Chemistry? |
19011 | Could I ever feel for him enough love to accept him as a husband? |
19011 | Could I, knowing my mind to be such as that, conscientiously say that I would take a grave, quiet, young man like Henry? |
19011 | Did Branwell Bronte know of the publication of_ Jane Eyre_,''she asks,''and how did he receive the news?'' |
19011 | Did Emily accompany Charlotte as a pupil when the latter went as a teacher to Roe Head? |
19011 | Did Emily ever go out as a governess? |
19011 | Did I say rightly? |
19011 | Did I see Mr. Taylor when I was in London? |
19011 | Did he blame Mr. Bronte? |
19011 | Did he seem cheerful and well? |
19011 | Did he want to marry you, or only to lionise you? |
19011 | Did n''t I tell you I had a"presentiment"it would be better for you to do so? |
19011 | Did not Miss Martineau improve you? |
19011 | Did they think you improved in looks? |
19011 | Did you go to London about this too? |
19011 | Did you never sneer or declaim in your first sketches? |
19011 | Did you read it? |
19011 | Did you salute your boy- messenger with a box on the ear the next time he came across you? |
19011 | Did_ she_ ever make friends?'' |
19011 | Do not both tire of him in time? |
19011 | Do not the swallow and the starling thus give a lesson by which man might profit? |
19011 | Do you know anything of her? |
19011 | Do you know how long she is likely to stay in England? |
19011 | Do you know that living among people with whom you have not the slightest interest in common is just like living alone, or worse? |
19011 | Do you look as you used to do, I wonder? |
19011 | Do you remember lending me a parasol, which I should have left with you when we parted at Leeds? |
19011 | Do you scold me out of habit, or are you really angry? |
19011 | Do you think I am a blue- stocking? |
19011 | Do you think I stood on ceremony about the matter? |
19011 | Do you think it likely to be true? |
19011 | Do you think you have any cause to complain of me? |
19011 | Does he not too much confound benevolence with weakness and wisdom with mere craft? |
19011 | Does he? |
19011 | Does it weary you that I refer to them? |
19011 | Does this assurance quite satisfy you? |
19011 | Ellis and Acton Bell are referred to, and where are they? |
19011 | From whom do you think I have received a couple of notes lately? |
19011 | Has Paris the materials within her for thorough reform? |
19011 | Has W. W. been seen or heard of lately? |
19011 | Has the world gone so well with you that you have no protest to make against its absurdities? |
19011 | Has your cough entirely left you? |
19011 | Has_ general_ ill health been the consequence of wet weather at Birstall or not? |
19011 | Have not her"unceasing changes"as yet always brought"perpetual emptiness"? |
19011 | Have the woods I left so lovely Lost their robes of tender green? |
19011 | Have you any idea who she is? |
19011 | Have you not been too hasty in informing your friends of a certain event? |
19011 | Have you received the newspaper which has been despatched, containing a notice of"her"lecture at Keighley? |
19011 | Have you seen anything of the Miss Woolers lately? |
19011 | Have you suffered from tic since you returned home? |
19011 | Have you suffered much from that troublesome though not( I am happy to hear) generally fatal disease, the influenza? |
19011 | He then went to London and made abundant inquiries-- but why pursue this ludicrous story further? |
19011 | Heger''s pension? |
19011 | How are papa and aunt, do they flag? |
19011 | How are they at Hunsworth yet? |
19011 | How are you getting on in the matter of servants? |
19011 | How are you? |
19011 | How are you? |
19011 | How are you? |
19011 | How did it strike you on reading it? |
19011 | How did you like your office of bridesmaid? |
19011 | How did your party go off? |
19011 | How do you know that I have it in my power to comply with that request? |
19011 | How does this happen? |
19011 | How does your mother bear this hot weather? |
19011 | How have your spirits been? |
19011 | How is she? |
19011 | How is your mother? |
19011 | How is your mother? |
19011 | How should I be with youth past, sisters lost, a resident in a moorland parish where there is not a single educated family? |
19011 | How will Anne get on with Martha? |
19011 | How would the accompanying preface do? |
19011 | I am uneasy about what you say respecting the French newspapers-- do you mean to intimate that you have received none? |
19011 | I believe I once requested you to judge of my feelings by your own-- am I to think that_ you_ are thus indifferent? |
19011 | I hope you do not feel any bad effects from it? |
19011 | I must not write so sadly, but how can I help thinking and feeling sadly? |
19011 | I owe you a letter-- can I choose a better time than the present for paying my debt? |
19011 | I should like well to have some details of your life, but how can I hope for it? |
19011 | I wish I could say anything favourable, but how can we be more comfortable so long as Branwell stays at home, and degenerates instead of improving? |
19011 | I wonder whether it can be true? |
19011 | If Mrs. Fairfax or any other well- intentioned fool gets hold of this what will she think? |
19011 | If man can thus experience total oblivion of his fellow''s imperfections, how much more can the Eternal Being, who made man, forgive His creature? |
19011 | If she did, why not try her and her plan again? |
19011 | If they had asked you to fix it, do you know yourself how many ciphers your sum would have had? |
19011 | If they were not ashamed to be frugal, might they not be more independent? |
19011 | In answer to inquiries respecting his age he affirmed himself to be thirty- seven-- is not this a lie? |
19011 | In what purlieu of Cockayne? |
19011 | Is he not, indeed, wonderfully fertile; but does the public, or the publisher even, make much account of his productions? |
19011 | Is he something better than this? |
19011 | Is it because it is intrinsically defective and inferior? |
19011 | Is it because knowing as you now do the identity of"Currer Bell,"this scene strikes you as unfeminine? |
19011 | Is it because you think this chapter will render the work liable to severe handling by the press? |
19011 | Is it on account of Mary Dixon? |
19011 | Is it the wish of her brother, or is it her own determination? |
19011 | Is it too late to remedy this error? |
19011 | Is she disposed to excuse the wretched petrified condition of the bilberry preserve, in consideration of the intent of the donor? |
19011 | Is some one of your family ill? |
19011 | Is that strength to be found in her which will not bend"but in magnanimous meekness"? |
19011 | Is the author of this work a Manchester man? |
19011 | Is the night time loth to go? |
19011 | Is there any room for female lawyers, female doctors, female engravers, for more female artists, more authoresses? |
19011 | It is true enough that the present market for female labour is quite overstocked, but where or how could another be opened? |
19011 | Lamartine, there is not doubt, would make an excellent legislator for a nation of Lamartines-- but where is that nation? |
19011 | Leicester''s School_, which you said you had met with, and you wondered by whom it was written? |
19011 | Mary Dixon informs me your brother is scarcely expected to recover-- is this true? |
19011 | Mary Taylor, I am sorry to hear, is ill-- have you seen her or heard anything of her lately? |
19011 | May I hope that there is now some intelligence on the way to me? |
19011 | Mean, dishonest Guizot being discarded, will any better successor be found for him than brilliant, unprincipled Thiers? |
19011 | Miss Wooler talked of giving up Dewsbury Moor-- should Charlotte and Emily take it? |
19011 | Mrs. Gaskell put to Miss Nussey this very question:''What was Emily''s religion?'' |
19011 | No one would blame me if I were to spend this spare hour in a pleasant chat with a friend-- is it worse to spend it in a friendly letter? |
19011 | Now Ellen, do n''t you think I have very cleverly contrived to make up a letter out of nothing? |
19011 | O Ellen, do you think I could be offended by any good advice you may give me? |
19011 | Of course I am aware that he is a dramatic writer of eminence, but do you know anything about him as a man? |
19011 | One can see where the evil lies, but who can point out the remedy? |
19011 | Papa will perhaps think it a wild and ambitious scheme; but who ever rose in the world without ambition? |
19011 | Perhaps you may return before midsummer-- do you think you possibly can? |
19011 | Say to her:"Is the man a fool? |
19011 | Shall I therefore send the MS. when I return the first batch of books? |
19011 | Shall we really stand once again together on the moors of Haworth? |
19011 | Should not her aged father be defended from the reproach the writer coarsely attempts to bring upon him? |
19011 | So you are coming home, are you? |
19011 | Tell me, are the dreary mountains Drearier still with drifted snow? |
19011 | The Churchwardens recently put the question to him plainly: Why was he going? |
19011 | There must be no impediments now? |
19011 | They are for wrist frills, are they not? |
19011 | They will come next year at this time, and who can tell what I shall want then, or shall be doing? |
19011 | This is not like one of my adventures, is it? |
19011 | Under these circumstances how can I go visiting? |
19011 | Under these circumstances should we repine? |
19011 | Was he willing to go? |
19011 | Was it Mr. Bronte''s fault or his own? |
19011 | Was it panic that made him so suddenly quit his throne and abandon his adherents without a struggle to retain one or aid the other? |
19011 | Was the reader Albert Smith? |
19011 | Well, it''s nearly dark and you will surely be well when you read this, so what''s the use of writing? |
19011 | What author would be without the advantage of being able to walk invisible? |
19011 | What claim have I on her? |
19011 | What did your sister Anne say about my omitting to send a drawing for the Jew basket? |

19011 | What does W. W.{ 92} say to these matters? |
19011 | What does the public care about him as an individual? |

19011 | What has happened to me? |
19011 | What have you done with it? |
19011 | What made you say I admired Hippocrates? |
19011 | What sort of spell has withered Louis Philippe''s strength? |
19011 | What was the topic to be? |
19011 | What were Emily''s religious opinions? |
19011 | What will you say when you get a_ real_,_ downright scolding_? |
19011 | What would they make of Jane Eyre? |
19011 | What, I can not help asking myself, would they make of Mr. Rochester? |
19011 | When do you intend to tell the good people about you? |
19011 | When does Anne talk of returning? |
19011 | When pressed to go, she would sometimes say,"What is the use? |
19011 | When will you come_ home_? |
19011 | Where did he live, I wonder? |
19011 | Where do the trickery and artifice lie? |
19011 | Whether do such men sway the public mind most effectually from their quiet studies or from a council- chamber? |
19011 | Whilst we depend entirely on Him for happiness, and receive each other and all our blessings as from His hands, what can harm us or make us miserable? |
19011 | Who can read these glowing descriptions of Turner''s works without longing to see them? |
19011 | Who can trust the word, or rely on the judgment, of an avowed atheist? |
19011 | Who that reads these words addressed to Mr. Williams can for a moment imagine that Charlotte is speaking other than the truth? |
19011 | Whom am I to marry? |
19011 | Why are we so to be denied each other''s society? |
19011 | Why can they not be content to take Currer Bell for a man? |
19011 | Why did not Branwell go to the Royal Academy in London to learn painting? |
19011 | Why did you not leave them to guess a little longer? |
19011 | Why does the pulse of pain beat in every pleasure? |
19011 | Why have I been silent? |
19011 | Why should she trouble herself to do it? |
19011 | Why should we be otherwise? |
19011 | Why then, I am naturally asked, add one further book to the Bronte biographical literature? |
19011 | Why, after having so long infatuatedly clung to Guizot, did he at once ignobly relinquish him? |
19011 | Will her novel soon be published? |
19011 | Will it be stained as darkly as the last with all our sins, follies, secret vanities, and uncontrolled passions and propensities? |
19011 | Will not the public in general be of the same opinion? |
19011 | Will she refuse me when I work so hard for her? |
19011 | Will they print all the French phrases in italics? |
19011 | Will you ask Mrs. Gaskell to undertake this just and honourable defence? |
19011 | Will you be so kind as to deliver the accompanying note to Miss Taylor when you see her at church on Sunday? |
19011 | Will you condescend to accept a yard of lace made up into nothing? |
19011 | Will you inclose with the volume the accompanying note? |
19011 | Will you suffer the article to pass current without any refutations? |
19011 | Will you thank that gentleman for me when you see him, and tell him that the railroad is to blame for my not having acknowledged his courtesy before? |
19011 | With this inheritance of intolerance, how could Charlotte and Emily face with kindliness the Romanism which they saw around them? |
19011 | Would Mr. Taylor and I ever suit? |
19011 | Would it suit you if we came to- morrow, after dinner-- say about seven o''clock, and spent Sunday evening with you? |
19011 | Would that suit? |
19011 | You have left your Bible-- how can I send it? |
19011 | You read or looked over the Ms.--what impression have you now respecting its worth? |
19011 | You say nothing about the Hunsworth Turtle- doves-- how are they? |
19011 | You surely do not think you_ trouble_ me by writing? |
19011 | _ How will it be when we open this paper and the one Emily has written_? |
19011 | _ I wonder what it is about_? |
19011 | _ Shall I succeed_? |
19011 | _ What sort of a hand shall I make of it_? |
19011 | _ What will the next four years bring forth_? |
19011 | _ When shall we sensibly diminish it_? |
19011 | _ When will they be done_? |
19011 | _ Will she go_? |
19011 | _ Will they improve_? |
19011 | _ or was it somebody else_? |
19011 | a humbug, a hypocrite, a ninny, a noodle? |
19011 | and am I understood? |
19011 | and especially,''Can I do it in August or September? |
19011 | and how did he like her? |
19011 | and how do you like your new sister and her family? |
19011 | and how is the branch of promise? |
19011 | and what confidence have you that I can make it better than it is? |
19011 | does this compensate for the absence of every fine feeling, of every gentle and delicate sentiment? |
19011 | has he at least common sense, a good disposition, a manageable temper? |
19011 | is he a knave? |
19011 | or astronomy? |
19011 | or conchology? |
19011 | or entomology? |
19011 | or mechanics? |
19011 | or must my patience be tried till I see you on Wednesday? |
19011 | or what other ology? |
19011 | or when she arrives at Hunsworth? |
19011 | warily in these dangerous days,"when, as Burns( is it not he?) |
19011 | what means this midnight? |
19011 | what station he occupies in the literary world and what works he has written? |
26152 | N''est- ce pas de ton coeur que viennent les graces de ton enjouement? 26152 Who shall decide when doctors disagree?" |
26152 | ''Tis very justly thought, and very politely quoted, and my best courtesy is due to him and to you:--but now will you listen to me? |
26152 | --to some wild and beautiful melody, such as some shepherd boy might"pipe to Amarillis in the shade?" |
26152 | Against the dangers of romance?--but where are they? |
26152 | Almost every one knows by heart Lady Percy''s celebrated address to her husband, beginning, O, my good lord, why are you thus alone? |
26152 | And again:-- What is this maid? |
26152 | And do you think, like some interesting young lady in Miss Edgeworth''s tales, that"women have nothing to do with politics?" |
26152 | And have you nuns no further privileges? |
26152 | And is it I That drive thee from the sportive court, where thou Wast shot at with fair eyes, to be the mark Of smoky muskets? |
26152 | And is it true that I must go from Troy? |
26152 | And when goes hence? |
26152 | And why have you not chosen your examples from real life? |
26152 | And you have written a book to make them better? |
26152 | Apropos to the historical characters, I hope you have refuted that_ insolent_ assumption,( shall I call it?) |
26152 | Are not these large enough? |
26152 | Are there many such, think you, in the world? |
26152 | Are they to serve as examples or as warnings for the youth of this enlightened age? |
26152 | Are you a comedian? |
26152 | Are you a man? |
26152 | Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valor, As thou art in desire? |
26152 | Art thou gone so? |
26152 | As warnings, of course-- what else? |
26152 | Ay, madam, twenty several messengers: Why do you send so thick? |
26152 | Ay, who doubts that? |
26152 | Be these sad signs confirmers of thy words? |
26152 | Be your tears wet? |
26152 | Beautiful lines!--Where are they? |
26152 | Both are ill- judged and odious; but did you ever meet with a woman of the world, who did not abuse most heartily the whole race of men? |
26152 | But do you thence infer that both are good for nothing? |
26152 | But had he died in the business, madam? |
26152 | But how are we to arrive at the solution of this glorious riddle, whose dazzling complexity continually mocks and eludes us? |
26152 | But how could you( saving the reverence due to a lady- authoress, and speaking as one reasonable being to another) choose such a threadbare subject? |
26152 | But how many hath he killed? |
26152 | But how tell in words, so pure, so fine, so ideal an abstraction as Hamlet? |
26152 | But seriously, do you think it necessary to guard young people, in this selfish and calculating age, against an excess of sentiment and imagination? |
26152 | But shall she weakly relinquish the golden opportunity, and dash the cup from her lips at the moment it is presented? |
26152 | But since by reason I can not persuade ye to it, to what purpose do I defer my last hope?" |
26152 | But to proceed: I allow that with this view of the case, you could not well have chosen your illustrations from real life; but why not from history? |
26152 | But to what do you attribute the number of satirical women we meet in society? |
26152 | But wherefore could not I pronounce, amen? |
26152 | But why are they mischievous? |
26152 | COUNTESS Nay, a mother; Why not a mother? |
26152 | Can Fulvia die? |
26152 | Can this be true? |
26152 | Can we believe that the mere tardy acknowledgment of her innocence could make amends for wrongs and agonies such as these? |
26152 | Day, night, Are they not but in Britain? |
26152 | Did I, Charmian, Ever love Cæsar so? |
26152 | Did ever dragon keep so fair a cave? |
26152 | Did it ever fail to charm or to interest, to seize on the coldest fancy, to touch the most insensible heart? |
26152 | Did you ever talk with a man of the world, who did not speak with levity or contempt of the whole human race of women? |
26152 | Did your letters pierce the queen to any demonstration of grief? |
26152 | Do not you love him, madam? |
26152 | Do we not fancy Cleopatra drawing herself up with all the vain consciousness of rank and beauty as she pronounces this last line? |
26152 | Do you allow no distinction between the romance of exaggerated sentiment, and the romance of elevated thought? |
26152 | Do you believe his tenders, as you call them? |
26152 | Do you believe this? |
26152 | Do you love me? |
26152 | Do you love my son? |
26152 | Do you not remember, lady, in your father''s time, a Venetian, a scholar, and a soldier, that came hither in company of the Marquis of Montferrat? |
26152 | Do you think I will? |
26152 | Do_ you_ bring cold water to quench the smouldering ashes of enthusiasm? |
26152 | Dost thou think, though I am caparisoned like a man, that I have a doublet and hose in my disposition? |
26152 | For instance:-- Why holds thine eye that lamentable rheum? |
26152 | For the very expressions of Lear-- What can you say to draw A third more opulent than your sisters''? |
26152 | For them? |
26152 | For what good turn? |
26152 | Force me to keep you as a prisoner, Not like a guest? |
26152 | From its truth perhaps? |
26152 | Ha!--Portia? |
26152 | Hath he ask''d for me? |
26152 | Hath that poor monarch taught thee to insult? |
26152 | Have I let slip a second vanity That gives thee hope? |
26152 | Have I not cause? |
26152 | Having waste ground enough, Shall we desire to raze the sanctuary, And pitch our evils there? |
26152 | He has almost supp''d: why have you left the chamber? |
26152 | He''s speaking now, Or murmuring, Where''s my serpent of old Nile? |
26152 | Hear''st thou, Pisanio? |
26152 | His service? |
26152 | How all the other passions fleet to air, As doubtful thoughts, and rash- embraced despair, And shudd''ring fear, and green- eyed jealousy? |
26152 | How could''st thou drain the life- blood of the child To bid the father wipe his face withal, And yet be seen to bear a woman''s face? |
26152 | How do you, women? |
26152 | How does my royal lord? |
26152 | How dost thou like this tune? |
26152 | How fares your majesty? |
26152 | How now? |
26152 | How would you be, If He, which is the top of judgment, should But judge you as you are? |
26152 | How''scap''d I killing when I cross''d you so? |
26152 | I can not do it to the gods; Must I then do''t to them? |
26152 | I do beseech you,( Chiefly that I might set it in my prayers,) What is your name? |
26152 | I must then to the Greeks? |
26152 | I only wished I might have died With my poor father; wherefore should I ask For longer life? |
26152 | I pray you, how many hath he killed and eaten in these wars? |
26152 | I wrong''d you, fair? |
26152 | If Antony Be free and healthful, why so tart a favor To trumpet such good tidings? |
26152 | If Cordelia reminds us of any thing on earth, it is of one of the Madonnas in the old Italian pictures,"with downcast eyes beneath th''almighty dove?" |
26152 | If he chose to make the Delphic oracle and Julio Romano contemporary-- what does it signify? |
26152 | If ill, Why hath it given me earnest of success, Commencing in a truth? |
26152 | If it appeared to the Grecian sage so"difficult for a man not to love himself, nor the things that belong to him, but justice only?" |
26152 | If now I have answered all your considerations and objections, and sufficiently explained my own views, may I proceed? |
26152 | If one of mean affairs May plod it in a week, why may not I Glide thither in a day? |
26152 | If sleep charge nature, To break it with a fearful dream of him, And cry myself awake?--that''s false to his bed, Is it? |
26152 | If this is not mere masculine indifference to blood and death, mere firmness of nerve, what is it? |
26152 | If this observation applies at all, it is equally just with regard to characters: and in either case can we admit it? |
26152 | In such a case, as she says herself-- What should Cordelia do?--love and be silent? |
26152 | Is it but this? |
26152 | Is it fair to bring a second- hand accusation against me, and not attend to my defence? |
26152 | Is it not exquisite-- irresistible? |
26152 | Is it not rather a whiting of the sepulchre? |
26152 | Is it possible Disdain should die, while she hath such meet food to feed it as Signior Benedick? |
26152 | Is it possible? |
26152 | Is it so nominated in the bond? |
26152 | Is she the goddess who hath severed us, And brought us thus together? |
26152 | Is there then no sanctuary for such a mind?--Where shall it find a refuge from the world?--Where seek for strength against itself? |
26152 | Is this Antony''s Cleopatra-- the Circe of the Nile-- the Venus of the Cydnus? |
26152 | Is this your christian counsel? |
26152 | Is''t lost,--Is''t gone? |
26152 | Is''t not a kind of incest to take life From thine own sister''s shame? |
26152 | It is easy to_ say_ this; yet who but Shakspeare could have expanded the last line into a Falconbridge? |
26152 | It is not lost-- but what an''if it were? |
26152 | It is not so expressed-- but what of that? |
26152 | Keeping in view the peculiar character of Hermione, such as she is delineated, is she one either to forgive hastily or forget quickly? |
26152 | Know you not, he has? |
26152 | Love you my son? |
26152 | Macbeth reigned over Scotland from the year 1039 to 1056--but what is all this to the purpose? |
26152 | Met''st thou my posts? |
26152 | Must I With my base tongue give to my noble heart A lie, that it must bear? |
26152 | Must I go show them my unbarb''d sconce? |
26152 | My husband, then? |
26152 | No: not to be so odd, and from all fashions, As Beatrice is can not be commendable: But who dare tell her so? |
26152 | Nor I your mother? |
26152 | Now Iras, what think''st thou? |
26152 | Now our joy, Although the last not least-- What can you say to draw A third more opulent than your sisters''? |
26152 | Now would it not be well, if this common and comprehensive word were more accurately defined, or at least more accurately used? |
26152 | O insupportable and touching loss-- Upon what sickness? |
26152 | O temperance, lady? |
26152 | O, my pardon? |
26152 | Of her subsequent madness, what can be said? |
26152 | Past grace? |
26152 | Pr''ythee speak, How many score of miles may we well ride''Twixt hour and hour? |
26152 | Say you? |
26152 | Shall I endure? |
26152 | Shall I not live to be avenged on her? |
26152 | Shall she cast away the treasure for which she has ventured both life and honor, when it is just within her grasp? |
26152 | Shall they hoist me up, And show me to the shouting varletry Of censuring Rome? |
26152 | She I kill''d? |
26152 | Sir, do you know me? |
26152 | Speak, is it out of the way? |
26152 | Speak, is''t so? |
26152 | Speakest thou from thy heart? |
26152 | Stand I condemned for pride and scorn so much? |
26152 | Stands he, or sits he, Or does he walk? |
26152 | Such giddiness of heart and brain Comes seldom save from rage and pain, So talks as it''s most used to do? |
26152 | Sweet, who has anger''d you? |
26152 | That honor, saved, may upon asking give? |
26152 | The moral!--of what? |
26152 | Then is it sin To rush into the secret house of death Ere death dare come to us? |
26152 | Then wav''d his hankerchief? |
26152 | Then, in a few words, what is the subject, and what the object, of your book? |
26152 | Think you there was, or might be, such a man As this I dream''d of? |
26152 | Think you, I am no stronger than my sex Being so father''d and so husbanded? |
26152 | Think you, I pray you, my lords, will any Englishmen counsel, or be friendly unto me, against the king''s pleasure, they being his subjects? |
26152 | Think''st thou it honorable for a nobleman Still to remember wrongs? |
26152 | This great moral retribution was to be displayed to us-- but how? |
26152 | Thus when the victory of Coriolanus is proclaimed, Menenius asks,"Is he wounded?" |
26152 | To lie in watch there, and to think of him? |
26152 | To weep''twixt clock and clock? |
26152 | True it is, that the ambitious women of these civilized times do not murder sleeping kings: but are there, therefore, no Lady Macbeths in the world? |
26152 | Upon the rack, Bassanio? |
26152 | Upon what ground can we read the play from beginning to end, and doubt the angel- purity of Isabella, or contemplate her possible lapse from virtue? |
26152 | Using those thoughts, which should indeed have died With them they think on? |
26152 | Was the hope drunk, Wherein you dress''d yourself? |
26152 | What angel shall Bless this unworthy husband? |
26152 | What beast was it then, That made you break this enterprise to me? |
26152 | What do you mean? |
26152 | What do you mean? |
26152 | What dost thou mean by shaking of thy head? |
26152 | What earthly title could add to her grandeur? |
26152 | What have they to do more upon this earth? |
26152 | What is Cleopatra but the empress and type of all the coquettes that ever were-- or are? |
26152 | What is between you? |
26152 | What is it, then, which lends to Cordelia that peculiar and individual truth of character, which distinguishes her from every other human being? |
26152 | What is your pleasure, madam? |
26152 | What lady would you choose to assail? |
26152 | What mean you, madam? |
26152 | What means that hand upon that breast of thine? |
26152 | What must I do? |
26152 | What name, sweet lady? |
26152 | What offence, sweet Beatrice? |
26152 | What say you? |
26152 | What says the married woman? |
26152 | What shall be said of her? |
26152 | What shall we answer to such criticism? |
26152 | What should I do, I do not? |
26152 | What should I think? |
26152 | What sum owes he the Jew? |
26152 | What then? |
26152 | What was the last That he spake to thee? |
26152 | What was there to check the ardor of hope, of faith, of constancy, just rising in her breast, but disappointment, which she had never yet felt? |
26152 | What will become of me now, wretched lady? |
26152 | What would she have thought and felt, had some soothsayer foretold to her the fate of her own children, whom she so tenderly loved? |
26152 | What would you do? |
26152 | What''s his service? |
26152 | What''s his will? |
26152 | What''s that? |
26152 | What''s the matter That this distempered messenger of wet, The many- color''d Iris, rounds thine eye? |
26152 | What''s this? |
26152 | What, and from Troilus too? |
26152 | What, i''the storm? |
26152 | What, what? |
26152 | When I have spoken of you disparagingly, Hath ta''en your part? |
26152 | When I said a mother, Methought you saw a serpent: what''s in mother, That you start at it? |
26152 | When he urges her to revenge, she asks, with all the simplicity of virtue,"How should I be revenged?" |
26152 | When shall we see again? |
26152 | When she bursts into that outrageous speech-- Is he not approved in the height a villain that hath slandered, scorned, dishonored my kinswoman? |
26152 | When will the reign of Constance cease? |
26152 | Where am I? |
26152 | Where art thou, death? |
26152 | Where be the sacred vials thou shouldst fill With sorrowful water? |
26152 | Where have I been? |
26152 | Where think''st thou he is now? |
26152 | Where, but in heaven? |
26152 | Wherefore, gentle maiden, Do you neglect them? |
26152 | Who ever knew a Hamlet in real life? |
26152 | Who is it thou dost call usurper, France? |
26152 | Why do you hate them? |
26152 | Why do you make such faces? |
26152 | Why do you speak so startingly and rash? |
26152 | Why dost not speak? |
26152 | Why dost thou look so sadly on my son? |
26152 | Why dost thou stay? |
26152 | Why holds thine eye that lamentable rheum, Like a proud river peering o''er his bounds? |
26152 | Why should I think you can be mine, and true, Though you in swearing shake the throned gods, Who have been false to Fulvia? |
26152 | Why should excuse be born, or e''er begot? |
26152 | Why should there be competition or comparison? |
26152 | Why should you frown? |
26152 | Why!--why are they mischievous? |
26152 | Why, after all, should we be offended at what does not offend Juliet herself? |
26152 | Why, methinks by him This creature''s no such thing? |
26152 | Why, what would you do? |
26152 | Why?--that you are my daughter? |
26152 | Wil''t please you hear me? |
26152 | Will poor folks lie That have afflictions on them, knowing''tis A punishment or trial? |
26152 | Will you go yet? |
26152 | Will you have her? |
26152 | Will you not eat your word? |
26152 | Will''t please, you Sir, be gone? |
26152 | Wilt thou be made a man out of my vice? |
26152 | With thin helm? |
26152 | Would Imogen have done so, who is so generously ready to grant a pardon before it be asked? |
26152 | You are a spirit, I know: when did you die? |
26152 | You laugh when boys, or women, tell their dreams Is''t not your trick? |
26152 | You remember too the famous nativity by some Neapolitan painter, who has placed Mount Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples in the background? |
26152 | You will not listen to me? |
26152 | You''re not angry? |
26152 | [ 81] The corresponding passage in the old English Plutarch runs thus:"My son, why dost thou not answer me? |
26152 | a tardiness of nature, That often leaves the history unspoke Which it intends to do?--My lord of Burgundy, What say you to the lady? |
26152 | and how beautifully he has exemplified it in Juliet? |
26152 | are ye gone, And leave me here in wretchedness behind ye? |
26152 | are you yet living? |
26152 | daughter and mother So strive upon your pulse: what, pale again? |
26152 | does it curd thy blood, To say, I am thy mother? |
26152 | e che altro mi resta verso te se non colla mia morte seguirti? |
26152 | for wot''st thou whom thou mov''st? |
26152 | happier therein than I!-- And that was all? |
26152 | hath it slept since, And wakes it now, to look so green and pale At what it did so freely? |
26152 | have I not ever said, How that ambitious Constance would not cease, Till she had kindled France and all the world Upon the right and party of her son? |
26152 | how shall this be prevented? |
26152 | how then? |
26152 | i''the night? |
26152 | is''t I That chase thee from thy country, and expose Those tender limbs of thine to the event Of the none- sparing war? |
26152 | is''t true? |
26152 | like a corse? |
26152 | obedience? |
26152 | or Desdemona, who does not forgive because she can not even resent? |
26152 | or heal a heart which must have bled inwardly, consumed by that untold grief,"which burns worse than tears drown?" |
26152 | or is he on his horse? |
26152 | or to prove that the mention of Proteus and Pluto, baptism and the Virgin Mary, in a breath, amounts to an anachronism? |
26152 | quite unmann''d in folly? |
26152 | she replies with a kind of half consciousness-- No more but so? |
26152 | think''st thou we shall ever meet again? |
26152 | what human record or attestation strengthen our impression of her reality? |
26152 | what poor ability''s in me To do him good? |
26152 | what then? |
26152 | what wicked deem is this? |
26152 | when will_ her_ power depart? |
26152 | where are now your fortunes? |
26152 | where are ye? |
26152 | which of ye drew from the other?" |
26152 | who was it that thus cried? |
26152 | why do you keep alone, Of sorriest fancies your companions making? |
26152 | why how now, Charmian? |
26152 | will you not lend a knee? |
26152 | yet if genius, youth, and innocence could not escape unslurred, can I hope to do so? |
26152 | yet who, ideal as the character is, feels not its reality? |
11549 | And d''ye feel better, Mis''Prentiss? |
11549 | And does everybody who comes here give you something? |
11549 | And then what do you do? |
11549 | And to love God? |
11549 | And what shall I do? |
11549 | And what then? |
11549 | And yet, Mrs. Prentiss( asked one of the ladies), does there not come a time when the child is really of service to the mother? |
11549 | But Mrs. Love is here, is she not? |
11549 | Did it ever strike you, dear Christian, that if the poor world could know what we are in Christ, it would worship us? |
11549 | Did n''t Miss Anna send any of them? |
11549 | Do you see my sword? |
11549 | How do you explain the fact,she added,"that truly good people are left to produce such an effect? |
11549 | How much feeling of love must I have before I can count myself Jesus''disciple? |
11549 | How old are you, little fellow? |
11549 | Is he tired? |
11549 | Is the doctor here? |
11549 | None are so old as they who have outlived enthusiasm; and who should be enthusiastic if a mother may not? |
11549 | Oh Pearlie, why do you say so? |
11549 | Oh, Lizzy, have you gone crazy? |
11549 | Sha n''t I save some for your breakfast? |
11549 | She came round to the back stoop Thursday morning( one of the servants told me afterwards) and I said to her,''Mis Prentiss, and how d''ye feel?'' 11549 Was it''Stepping Heavenward''?" |
11549 | Well, little witch? |
11549 | What are Little Babies For? |
11549 | What are Little Babies For? |
11549 | What do you do with your pennies? |
11549 | What does he eat? |
11549 | What makes you blush so, my dear? |
11549 | What makes you blush so? |
11549 | What''s it for? |
11549 | When a question as to duty comes up, I think we can soon settle it in this way:''Am I living near to Christ? 11549 When the shore is won at last, Who will count the billows past?" |
11549 | Which little baby? |
11549 | Why can not I make a jacket for my baby without throwing into it the ardor of a soldier going into battle? |
11549 | Why how do you know you''ll go to heaven? |
11549 | Why, do you think you should be better off than you are here? |
11549 | Will you take me for a pupil? |
11549 | You would n''t care much if you should die to- night, should you? |
11549 | ''s portrait? |
11549 | 1._--I wonder if all the girls in the world are just alike? |
11549 | 16th._--Do you remember what father said about losing his will when near the close of his life? |
11549 | 21st._--Are you in earnest? |
11549 | 6, 1837._--Why is it that our desires so infinitely transcend our capacities? |
11549 | 8th._--How is it that people who have no refuge in God live through the loss of those they love? |
11549 | A year? |
11549 | About the painting? |
11549 | Am I a Christian?" |
11549 | Am I bound to reveal my heart- life to everybody who asks? |
11549 | Am I not then on dangerous ground? |
11549 | Am I renouncing self in what I undertake to do for Him?'' |
11549 | Am I seeking His guidance? |
11549 | And I want to ask you if you ever offer to pray with people? |
11549 | And can we better frame that prayer than in those lines which she wrote out of her own heart? |
11549 | And first the doctor, what of him? |
11549 | And have you put up your leaves on your windows? |
11549 | And if you are happy at the North Pole sha n''t I be happy there too? |
11549 | And may it not be that they become better acquainted with us, too, loving us more perfectly and forgiving all that has been amiss? |
11549 | And now tell me, my son, in seeing this picture gallery, do you not begin to see me? |
11549 | And the houses have a habit of burning down, and ours is going to do as the rest do, and then how''ll you feel in your minds? |
11549 | And what can we ask for that compares for one instant with"the almost constant felt presence of our Saviour''s sympathy and support"? |
11549 | And what is there in the system of things, or in the nature of the mind, to suggest it? |
11549 | And why angry with you? |
11549 | And yet why do I say_ poor_ when I know it is_ rich_? |
11549 | And, indeed, why should it be harder for God to enter into the soul of an infant than into our"unlikeliest"ones? |
11549 | Are n''t you glad? |
11549 | Are they good- for- nothing things? |
11549 | Are they made for us to love? |
11549 | Are you in earnest? |
11549 | Are you little and slight, like my real mother, I wonder, or stately and tall? |
11549 | Are you really coming home in March? |
11549 | Are you sure that you will come? |
11549 | At last she said,"Miss Payson?" |
11549 | At six months? |
11549 | Beneath your pillow have I roses placed-- Your heart''s glad festival have I not graced? |
11549 | But can you not believe me when I assure you that you are my own dear son? |
11549 | But is not this the true stale of the mind, instead of being; one which should excite astonishment? |
11549 | But suppose I do her no good while she lives so under my wing? |
11549 | But what do I care? |
11549 | But what then? |
11549 | But why do I speak thus of myself and my feelings? |
11549 | But you will come next fall, wo n''t you? |
11549 | But, what am I doing? |
11549 | Can it be true? |
11549 | Can they even hold themselves? |
11549 | Can they help their mothers sew? |
11549 | Can they speak a single word? |
11549 | Can they walk upon their feet? |
11549 | Can we enjoy Him while living for ourselves, while indulging in sin, while prayerless and cold and dead? |
11549 | Can you believe that till this June I never went strawberrying in my life? |
11549 | Can you cap this climax? |
11549 | Can you conceive my relief? |
11549 | Can you learn her address, or shall I write to her at a venture, without one? |
11549 | Can you put up with this miserable letter? |
11549 | Can you realise that your Lord and Saviour loves you infinitely more? |
11549 | Coming out I said to a gentleman who approached me,"How is little baby?" |
11549 | Could anything less than love take in such a company of poor beggars? |
11549 | Did I ever tell you how I love and admire the new Bishop Johns? |
11549 | Did I tell you I have translated a German dramatic poem in five acts? |
11549 | Did I tell you it was our silver wedding- day on the 16th? |
11549 | Did his mind touch mine through the closed door? |
11549 | Did you ever hear of anything so dreadful? |
11549 | Did you ever hear the story of the dog, who by an accident was cut in two, and was joined together by a wonderful healing salve? |

11549 | Did you ever read Miss Taylor''s"Display"? |
11549 | Did you ever read that story? |
11549 | Did you know that you too can get leaves and flowers in advance of spring, by keeping twigs in warm water? |
11549 | Did you read in Goethe''s Wilhelm Meister, the"Bekenntnisse einer schönen Seele"? |
11549 | Did your brother bring home the poems of R. M. Milnes? |
11549 | Do Christians cheat and tell lies? |
11549 | Do I know what I am talking about? |
11549 | Do n''t you remember that it is His son-- not His enemy-- that He scourgeth? |
11549 | Do n''t you see that in afflicting you He means to prove to you that He loves you, and that you love Him? |
11549 | Do n''t you see them-- the young ones scampering first down the aisle, and the old and grave and stately ones coming with proud dignity after them?... |
11549 | Do not I_ know_ that it is so? |
11549 | Do not you miss the hearing little feet pattering round the house? |
11549 | Do tell if the New Bedford babies are so ugly?" |
11549 | Do tell me, when you write, if you have such troubled thoughts, and such difficulty in being steadfast and unmovable? |
11549 | Do the trees so? |
11549 | Do you ever feel mentally and spiritually alone in the world? |
11549 | Do you feel so about him? |
11549 | Do you find anything to love and admire in your brothers? |
11549 | Do you know about Mr. Prentiss''appointment by General Assembly to a professorship at Chicago? |
11549 | Do you know anything of such a feeling as this? |

11549 | Do you know what she_ does_ take, and can you suggest, from what you know, anything she would like? |
11549 | Do you laugh at them, or scold them, or love them, or what? |
11549 | Do you love babies? |
11549 | Do you love babies? |
11549 | Do you pray for me every night and every morning? |
11549 | Do you realise how kind the Professor is to me? |
11549 | Do you really mean to say that Miss K. is going to pray for_ me_? |
11549 | Do you see anything amiable and lovable in any of them? |
11549 | Do you suppose such a soul would find anything in yours to satisfy it? |
11549 | Do you think I love your brothers? |
11549 | Do you? |
11549 | Does all nature furnish one type of the soul? |
11549 | Does any body in Portland take their paper? |
11549 | Does he_ want_ to kill himself, or what ails him? |
11549 | Does it really need anything else for its happiness? |
11549 | Does it run in our blood? |
11549 | Etait- ce bien? |
11549 | For table there, is none in this room, and how am I to write a book without one? |
11549 | Have I had the presumption to do that? |
11549 | Have the times ever looked so black as they do now? |
11549 | Have you Pusey''s tract,"Do all to the Lord Jesus"? |
11549 | Have you any choice religious verses not in any book, that you would like to put into one I am going to get up? |
11549 | Have you ever read the Life of Mrs. Hawkes? |
11549 | Have you had The Story Lizzie Told, Six Little Princesses, The Little Preacher, and Nidworth? |
11549 | Have you known my reign? |
11549 | Have you laughed over the Pickwick Papers? |

11549 | Have you read the"Gates Ajar"? |
11549 | Have you read"Gates Off the Hinges"? |
11549 | Have you read"Noblesse Oblige"? |
11549 | He laughed and asked,"You expect to make out of these stupid children such characters, such hearts as yours?" |
11549 | Henry Langdon; or, What Was I Made For? |
11549 | His good old mother sits all day so fondly by his side; How can she give him up again-- her first- born son, her pride? |
11549 | How are you going to bear this new blow? |
11549 | How came you to_ walk_ to Dartmouth to preach? |
11549 | How can love and faith be_ one act_ and then cease? |
11549 | How could I, who had not been allowed to invite Miss Lyman here, undertake this terrible care? |
11549 | How did poor Mrs. C. live through the week of suspense that followed the telegram announcing his illness? |
11549 | How do you explain this? |
11549 | How do you keep your wit so ready and so bright? |
11549 | How is it_ possible_ to help seeing that the soul is not here in its proper element, in its native air? |
11549 | How is the niece you spoke of as so ill and so happy? |
11549 | How much Time shall be given to it? |
11549 | How much Time shall be given to it? |
11549 | How to the grave the precious casket yield, And to those old familiar places go That knew thee once, and never more shall know? |
11549 | How were her temper and habits as a mother affected by the ardor and intensity of her Christian feeling? |
11549 | I am going to call it Stepping Heavenward-- don''t you like it? |
11549 | I am in danger of forgetting that I am to stay in this world only a little while and then_ go home._ Will you help me to bear it in mind?... |
11549 | I am reading the history of the Oxford Conference;[ 5] there is a great deal in it to like, but what do you think of this saying of its leader? |
11549 | I asked if I had better send at once for Dr. Wyman? |
11549 | I believe I''ll go to your bedroom door and say,"I wonder whether Annie would shriek out if she saw me in this old sacque, instead of her pretty one?" |
11549 | I ca n''t help feeling that every soul I meet, of whom I can ask, What think you of Christ? |
11549 | I care more to be loved than to be admired, do n''t you? |
11549 | I confess that such conceptions are hard to attain.... Ca n''t you do M---- S---- up in your next letter, and send her to me on approbation? |
11549 | I declare it was just as she looked when she says to me,"Mary, I''m going to be married, and what d''ye think of that?" |
11549 | I do n''t think people ought to like me, on the whole, but when they do, ai nt I glad? |
11549 | I expected the reproof which I certainly deserved, but though evidently surprised at seeing me, he merely said,"You here? |
11549 | I feel sorry for her in one sense, but if she belongs to Christ, is n''t He home enough for her? |
11549 | I gave twenty cents for a yard of silicia( is that the way to spell it?) |
11549 | I have 540 things to say, but there is so much going on that I shall defraud you of them-- aren''t you glad? |
11549 | I have n''t seen one for such an age,--please, may I take it? |
11549 | I said to myself, Is it after all such a curse to suffer and to be a source of suffering to others? |
11549 | I said,"Oh yes, do n''t you know I promised to stay with A., who will be so lonely?" |
11549 | I shall read your books with great interest, I am sure, and who knows how God means to prepare you for future usefulness along the path of pain? |
11549 | I shrink, I shudder at the thought; For what is home to me, When sin and self enchain my heart, And keep it far from Thee? |
11549 | I then said,"Would you like to know the name of this boy?" |
11549 | I want you to let me know, without telling her that I asked you, if Miss K. could make me a visit if it were not for the expense? |
11549 | I wonder how other folks think, feel inside? |
11549 | I wonder how soon you go back to Northampton? |
11549 | I wonder how you spend your time? |
11549 | I wonder if I have told you how our dog hates to remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy? |
11549 | I wonder if perfectly honest- hearted people want to be loved better than they deserve, as in one sense I, with yet a pretty honest heart, do? |
11549 | I wonder if the fashion will stretch across the ocean? |
11549 | I wonder if there is always this difference between the girl and woman? |
11549 | I wonder if you are sitting by an open window, as I am, and roasting at that? |
11549 | I wonder if you have a"daily rose"? |
11549 | I wonder if you have read"Miracles of Faith"? |
11549 | I wonder if you know that I am going to begin a Bible- reading on the first Wednesday in December? |
11549 | I wonder if you realise what a very happy creature I am? |
11549 | I wonder which of us will outrun the other and step in first? |
11549 | I wonder which? |
11549 | If mothers would keep their little unfledged birds under their own wings, would n''t they make better mother- birds? |
11549 | If there is any truth in them, do they not throw light on the much- vexed question why God permitted the introduction of moral evil? |
11549 | If they met in a foreign land they would surely claim it for our sakes; why not in the land that is not foreign, and not far off? |
11549 | If you were not so timid I should wish you were here to run about with me, but who ever heard of E. T._ running_? |
11549 | In a letter written about two weeks ago, Miss Lyman says,"How am I? |
11549 | In what other way could you reach so many minds and hearts? |
11549 | Is human nature so selfish? |
11549 | Is it because I am proud? |
11549 | Is it even so with you? |
11549 | Is it impossible? |
11549 | Is it not a little remarkable that her last letter to me, written only a few weeks before her death, closed with a benediction? |
11549 | Is it not as much an evidence of disease as the preponderance of one element or function in the physical constitution? |
11549 | Is it not better to be thinking of the Rock, not of the feet that stand upon it? |
11549 | Is it not one- sidedness rather than many- sidedness that should be regarded as strange? |
11549 | Is it not so, Sir Percival? |
11549 | Is it not to shut us up to Christ? |
11549 | Is it not true? |
11549 | Is it right? |
11549 | Is it so with you? |
11549 | Is n''t it a mercy that I have been able to bear so well the fatigue and care and anxiety of these four hard months? |
11549 | Is n''t it worth while to pay something for warm human sympathies and something for rich experience of God''s love and wisdom? |
11549 | Is n''t there such power in a holy life, and have not some lived such a life? |
11549 | Is not Christ enough for a human soul? |
11549 | Is not the fruit of love aspiration after the holy? |
11549 | Is not this a blissful thought?... |
11549 | Is this a part of our poor humanity, above which we can not rise? |
11549 | Is this consistent with what I have just said about growing more loving as we grow more Christlike? |
11549 | Is this true? |
11549 | It is entitled,"What form of Law is best suited to the individual and social nature of man?" |
11549 | It is not foolish, is it? |
11549 | It was a little singular that her poem and his sermon came to me at almost the identical moment, was n''t it? |
11549 | It was a real loss, and if you ever feel a little stronger than usual, will you make me another copy? |
11549 | Last night when I went up to my room to go to bed, the thermometer was 90 °... Are you not going to the Centennial? |
11549 | Law proceeds from an infinite mind; can finite mind grasp it so as to know, through its own consciousness, that it comes up to this standard? |
11549 | Let me see; how old should I have to be, at soonest? |
11549 | Lovely, was n''t it? |
11549 | Mrs. W. said they hoped not, but added,"Yet suppose you_ should_ die, what then?" |
11549 | Must I not believe that the heavenly love may, in one sense, be_ hidden_ from outward eye and outward touch? |
11549 | Must everybody have everything to himself? |
11549 | My dear child, what makes you get blue? |
11549 | My joy, my rapture, and my silent pain? |
11549 | Ne seriez- vous pas ma complice, Madame?... |
11549 | Now how shall I get it to her? |
11549 | Now we were able to say,_ It is well with the child!_"Oh,"said the gardener, as he passed down the garden- walk,"who plucked that flower? |
11549 | Now, can we enjoy Him till we do glorify Him? |
11549 | Now, do you think I love you? |
11549 | O death, where is thy sting? |
11549 | O grave, where is thy victory? |
11549 | O grave, where is thy victory?" |
11549 | Oh, are you really coming? |
11549 | Oh, do you miss me? |
11549 | Oh, how can they? |
11549 | Oh, how good the Lord is, is n''t He?" |
11549 | Oh, what is it I do want? |
11549 | On coming in to dinner, a little past one, I was startled not to find her at the table,"Where is mamma?" |
11549 | Only one thing was wanting to my perfect felicity-- a heart absolutely holy; and was I likely to get that when my earthly cup was so full? |
11549 | Or who could bring back again the awe- struck, responsive emotions that thrilled our hearts? |
11549 | Ought say?" |
