| 17050 | But she delayed to come, and so he gently called,''Are you coming?'' |
| 17050 | Can this be he who hither came In secret, like a smothered flame? |
| 17050 | For what purpose? |

| 35748 | For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? |
| 35748 | But it may be asked, how can the brain enlarge or decrease by the action of the mind? |
| 35748 | Can an invisible, immaterial principle enlarge or lessen the organ through which it operates? |
| 35748 | Why then single out Phrenology for disbelief, because it is new, is gold the less gold because fresh from the mine? |
| 35748 | or truth less true because recently revealed? |
| 35748 | or, Is the brain the organ through which the mind acts? |

| 17113 | But has it ever struck the reader that sometimes horses and dogs do not quite enjoy going to a place which is reputed to be haunted? |
| 17113 | But why do not people follow her in a body?" |
| 17113 | He rose from his chair, terrified, and cried:"Who are you, and what do you want?" |
| 17113 | How did the bullets come back? |
| 17113 | Photographer,"I asked"what success?" |
| 17113 | Should they inform the Lord Chamberlain of the palace? |
| 17113 | So generally a question like this is asked by the exorcist"Who are you and why are you troubling the poor patient?" |
| 17113 | So he shouted out"Who is there?" |
| 17113 | Was their royal master taken ill? |
| 17113 | We opened the windows, and it was then that Uncle spoke"Do n''t open or it would come in--""What would come in Uncle-- what?" |

| 33076 | ( III) A question mark(?) |
| 33076 | Are they up to the average of those engaged in similar work? |
| 33076 | Are you yourself"making good"in this respect? |
| 33076 | But what about its mental attitude? |
| 33076 | Does he approach his"prospect"with the confident enthusiasm that brings orders? |
| 33076 | Does the shipping clerk take a delighted interest in getting out his deliveries? |
| 33076 | Have you been harboring the delusion that"quick as thought"is a phrase expressive of flash- like quickness? |
| 33076 | Have you had the idea that thought is instantaneous? |
| 33076 | Have you trained it wisely? |
| 33076 | How fast do your thoughts come, compared to the average man in your field of activity? |
| 33076 | How fast does your stenographer think? |
| 33076 | How rapidly does your mind work? |
| 33076 | If you were about to purchase a new tire for your automobile or a few pairs of stockings, what brand would you buy, and why? |
| 33076 | Is the salesman proud of his line and his house? |
| 33076 | What, then, is the process that unifies these isolated sense- perceptions and gives us our knowledge of things as concrete wholes? |
| 33076 | When you think of a camera or a cake of soap, what particular make comes first to your mind? |
| 33076 | When you think of a home, what is the mental picture that rises before you, and why? |
| 33076 | Your chauffeur? |
| 33076 | Your clerk? |
| 33076 | [ Sidenote:_ Brands and Tags_] If you wanted to buy a house, what local subdivision would come first to your mind, and why? |

| 10088 | If then,returned the lady,"I give thee more money, how will it be applied?" |
| 10088 | What, thou art an astrologer? |
| 10088 | [ 111] Are not the_ gifts of imagination_ mistaken here for the strength of passions? 10088 And why does the evil tempting spirit so often prevail? 10088 HAD DEMONS ANY SHARE IN THE ORACLES? 10088 Had demons any share in the oracles? 10088 Had not Aaron, the high priest of the Hebrews, a ring on his finger, whereof the diamond, by its virtues, operated prodigious things? 10088 Has the use of the mountain ash,''rowan tree''[ Pyrus aucuparia,_ Gaertner_,] as a charm against witchcraft, ever been accounted for? 10088 How I dreamt Of things impossible( could sleep do more?) 10088 If things must necessarily come to pass, why dost thou amuse us with thy ambiguities? 10088 It may be asked how far they are practicably admissible, and in what cases they are wholly unavailing? 10088 May not the sincere believer in the divine authority of the scriptures reasonably hesitate concerning this conclusion? 10088 Or rather, does not such an interpretation justly expose revelation to reproach? 10088 Shall I ask him whether it be better to lose life than liberty? 10088 Shall we say that Xenophon does not speak truth, or is too extravagant? 10088 The touch of a torpedo numbness? 10088 What is more natural than to place confidence in a remedy, which has been known to afford relief to others in the same kind of disposition? 10088 What then are the marks of certain incantations? 10088 Whether life be a real good? 10088 Who can apprehend by what impenetrable method the bite of a mad dog, or tarantula, can produce these symptoms? 10088 Why did not the Persians make use of it when Lucullus cut their troops to pieces? 10088 is it possible to escape our destiny? 10088 so great a personage, and so divine a spirit as Aristotle, can he be deceived? 10088 to what purpose should that be? 10088 who knows not that if there be a sea- fight, it must either be in seed- time or harvest? 10088 why, why seek to know the course of futurity? 14209 But what kind of Life and Mind do you mean?" |
| 14209 | Then,you ask,"do you mean to tell us that THE ALL is LIFE and MIND?" |
| 14209 | And if this be true in the case of our finite minds, what must be the degree of Reality in the Mental Images created in the Mind of the Infinite? |
| 14209 | And where the Great Hermes hesitated to speak, what mortal may dare to teach? |
| 14209 | Are not the majority of persons mere shadows and echoes of others having stronger wills or minds than themselves? |
| 14209 | Are you able to grasp the inner meaning of this? |
| 14209 | Between"Black and White"? |
| 14209 | Between"Hard and Soft"? |
| 14209 | Between"High and Low"? |
| 14209 | Between"Noise and Quiet"? |
| 14209 | Between"Positive and Negative"? |
| 14209 | Between"Sharp and Dull"? |
| 14209 | But what is Spirit? |
| 14209 | But, have you ever considered that all of these things are manifestations of the Gender Principle? |
| 14209 | But, what indeed is the Universe, if it be not THE ALL, not yet created by THE ALL having separated itself into fragments? |
| 14209 | Can there be any greater mystery than this of"All in THE ALL; and THE ALL in All?" |
| 14209 | Can you not see that the phenomena is"on all fours"with that of the corpuscles or electrons? |
| 14209 | How could there be a something acting in the phenomenal universe, independent of the laws, order, and continuity of the latter? |
| 14209 | How few original thoughts or original actions are performed by the average person? |
| 14209 | How may Light be described to a man born blind-- how sugar, to a man who has never tasted anything sweet-- how harmony, to one born deaf? |
| 14209 | Is THE ALL merely Matter? |
| 14209 | Is there no third way in which MAN creates? |
| 14209 | Is there no"because"to their"pleasing"and"Wanting"? |
| 14209 | Is this not so? |
| 14209 | On his own plane of being, how does Man create? |
| 14209 | Passing on from the Great Mental Plane to the Great Spiritual Plane, what shall we say? |
| 14209 | Some have imagined that THE ALL had something to gain by it, but this is absurd, for what could THE ALL gain that it did not already possess? |
| 14209 | Somewhat paradoxical, is it not? |
| 14209 | The question is generally about as follows:"Is a Plane a place having dimensions, or is it merely a condition or state?" |
| 14209 | Then if the Universe is neither THE ALL, nor Nothing, what Can it be? |
| 14209 | Then is THE ALL mere Energy or Force? |
| 14209 | Then is the Universe THE ALL? |
| 14209 | What else can it be-- of what else can it be made? |
| 14209 | What is the Universe? |
| 14209 | What is the difference between"Large and Small"? |
| 14209 | What is there then higher than Matter or Energy that we know to be existent in the Universe? |

| 14209 | What may be said of such Beings? |

| 11906 | And is not their knowledge of the things carried past them equally limited? |
| 11906 | But what if your clock is running down or speeding up? |
| 11906 | He thought:''Shall I send forth worlds?'' 11906 Oh, thou that sleepest, what is sleep?" |
| 11906 | What is it that is much desired by man, but which they know not while possessing? |
| 11906 | Why raise( he says)"these puzzling and merely academic questions? |
| 11906 | And to the questions,"How, and from whence?" |
| 11906 | Are such strange hauntings of our House of Life due to the cyclic return of time? |
| 11906 | But do we really forget? |
| 11906 | But how are we to determine our equal times? |
| 11906 | But is it established? |
| 11906 | Deep sleep dreams are in the true sense clairvoyant, though for the most part irrecoverable--"Canst thou draw out Leviathan with an hook?" |
| 11906 | For what is karma but the return of time, the flowering in the present of some seed sown elsewhere and long ago? |
| 11906 | How long would the double journey have taken_ if the river current had been faster than our rowing speed_? |
| 11906 | How shall we schedule our trip if we can not learn the correct speed,_ or if it varies from minute to minute_? |
| 11906 | If space is curved, how are we going to measure its curvature? |
| 11906 | If such is indeed the case, if the will is extraneous, how does it possess itself of the nerves and muscles of the hand of the writer? |
| 11906 | Is n''t the straightness of the knife a mere poverty of human imagination? |
| 11906 | Might it not be perceived as a representation, merely, of a supernal world, higher- dimensional in relation to our own? |
| 11906 | Perhaps,--but what is time? |
| 11906 | Suppose some one should ask you,"What is an hour?" |
| 11906 | To the question,"What worlds?" |
| 11906 | We are_ embedded_ in our own space, and if that space be embedded in higher space, how are we going to discover it? |
| 11906 | Were reason equal to the strain put upon it under these circumstances, in what light might the phantasmagoria of human life appear? |
| 11906 | What circumstances, we may ask, have compelled our intellect to conceive of_ solid_ space? |
| 11906 | What have they to do, it may be asked, with the idea of_ higher_ spaces? |
| 11906 | What is the reason for these differences of power and function? |
| 11906 | What is this but the self- forgiveness of sins? |
| 11906 | What results from conceptions of this order? |
| 11906 | Where is consciousness during these intervals, long or short, when the senses fail to respond to the stimuli of the external world? |
| 11906 | Why attempt to turn the universe completely upside down?" |
| 11906 | Why do they vanish? |
| 11906 | Why should death bedreaded any more than bedtime? |

| 26339 | Are we not at the perpetual mercy of evil men and powers, which blind fair reason? |
| 26339 | Are we not dazzled by pomp and show? |
| 26339 | Are we, then, arbiters of our own fate? |
| 26339 | Are we, then, so soulless in our innocent pleasures? |
| 26339 | But, which one of you ladies turned the cup? |
| 26339 | Deception-- intrigue-- house of sickness-- see the crosses and losses? |
| 26339 | Did we not all cry out,"Oh, what a wonderful cup-- a king, a king with a crown?" |
| 26339 | Do you grasp some of the leading ideas? |
| 26339 | Do you know what is your birth stone? |

| 26339 | Madam, how is one to overcome nature? |
| 26339 | Now, as this is all free play, will you please tell me if this leading figure defines any of your conditions truthfully, as to politics? |
| 26339 | Now, see you the large moon- faced man from over the deep water? |
| 26339 | Now, what figure have you got?" |
| 26339 | See the head? |
| 26339 | See the little_ dog_, how angry, and the_ cat_, with her back up, and the other animal with a spring? |
| 26339 | See the young girl-- no doubt your daughter-- under the beautiful fruit trees? |
| 26339 | See you the ocean? |
| 26339 | See you the separate roads, with the harsh wind blowing the leafless branches of the trees? |
| 26339 | See you the_ shaft_, draped like a funeral pall across the cup? |
| 26339 | See you these faces? |
| 26339 | The mules and the whole team? |
| 10361 | And if this beginning is now with us, by what reason can we limit it? |
| 10361 | But how about those who have passed over without that recognition? |
| 10361 | But how are we to do this? |
| 10361 | But the question is, What is going to become of ourselves? |
| 10361 | CHAPTER III THE DIVINE IDEAL What is the Divine Ideal? |
| 10361 | Do you expect God to put cash into your desk by a conjuring trick? |
| 10361 | Four kingdoms we know: what is to be the Fifth? |
| 10361 | Have I got this as an ever present Law of Tendency at the back of my thought? |
| 10361 | How can the force which pulls a thing down be an integral part of the force which builds it up? |
| 10361 | How do we know that it is the will of God? |
| 10361 | How do we know this? |
| 10361 | If so, then how is it that we all project identically similar images? |
| 10361 | Is the material movement evolved at this stage bound to take any particular form? |
| 10361 | Now ask yourself in what way individual selection and initiative would be likely to act as expressing the Originating Spirit itself? |
| 10361 | Now what must this passing out of the body mean to us? |
| 10361 | One is the question, How can moral guilt be transferred from one person to another? |
| 10361 | So, then, the question arises, What lines will this further development be likely to follow? |
| 10361 | The Law is that we can not transcend the Normal; therefore comes the question, What is the Normal? |
| 10361 | The bruised shins of our childhood convince us of its solidity, so now comes the question, Why does Matter exist? |
| 10361 | Then comes the question, How did the Universal Substance get there? |
| 10361 | Then comes the question, Is there no way of getting out of this law? |
| 10361 | Then the question arises, if these principles are true, why are we not demonstrating them? |
| 10361 | Then the question is, How are we to do this? |
| 10361 | Then there is the objection, How can past sins be done away with? |
| 10361 | Then why not impress upon it the suggestion that in passing over to the other side it has brought its objective mentality along with it? |
| 10361 | Therefore we arrive at the question, What is the Divine Ideal like? |
| 10361 | What is this something? |
| 10361 | When you were fourteen did you know where all the means were coming from which were going to support you till now when you are perhaps forty or fifty? |
| 10361 | Where, then, does limitation come from? |
| 10361 | Why not? |
| 10361 | Why, then, should not regeneration be accomplished here and now? |
| 16266 | 0 0? |

| 16266 | And in vertical unequal division, what principle governs? |
| 16266 | But is it not also characteristic of the''active''pictures, since, as we see, it has the largest representation in that class too? |
| 16266 | But what is this mechanical balance? |
| 16266 | But what is''the expenditure of attention''in physiological terms? |
| 16266 | But why does he put the open tunnel so far out? |
| 16266 | But would the distance be in the same proportion for a given distance of the fixed line of say 20 or 25 cm.? |
| 16266 | By his extremely emphasized central line, and his explicit question to the subjects,''Does this balance?'' |
| 16266 | Do animals which learn slowly retain associations longer? |
| 16266 | Does it make it impossible to establish the coördination, or destroy it if already established? |
| 16266 | How shall we assume that the automatic movement cycle necessary to rhythmic perception is set up when one listens to a series of sounds? |
| 16266 | If not, on what grounds should it be discarded? |
| 16266 | If size gives''weight,''why does it not always do so? |
| 16266 | If, then, the pyramid belongs to contemplation, the diagonal to action, what can be said of the type of landscape? |
| 16266 | In order to answer this question we must ask first, What are the different kinds of pictures? |
| 16266 | Is the application of phenomenalistic psychology or the application of teleological voluntarism in question? |
| 16266 | Is this true, or do we find that there are well- marked types, between which reactions are comparatively rare? |
| 16266 | Must we consider the pyramid the expression of passivity, the diagonal or V, of activity? |
| 16266 | Must we invoke a new principle for horizontal unequal division, or is it but a subtly disguised variation of the more familiar symmetry? |
| 16266 | My problem is, What are the time relations of all these reactions? |
| 16266 | Number 4 8.2"50.4"Female? |
| 16266 | Should it have been used in the determination of the mean? |
| 16266 | The question arises, is this scream indicative of pain? |
| 16266 | The question is, how much deviation from the mode should be allowed? |
| 16266 | The question which this section will attempt to answer is this: Is there in primitive art an original and immediate æsthetic feeling for symmetry? |
| 16266 | The subject was never asked, Does this balance? |
| 16266 | This question depends on two others which must precede it: To what extent does symmetry actually appear in primitive art? |
| 16266 | What happens when a sound occurs out of place, early in the phase of relaxation, or just before or just after the climax in the contraction phase? |
| 16266 | and, How far must its presence be accounted for by other than æsthetic demands? |

| 32841 | O. Pray, Coul, who informed you that I talked at that Rate? |

| 10417 | Preparing for Old Age Socrates was once asked by a pupil, this question:"What kind of people shall we be when we reach Elysium?" |
| 10417 | That is, what shall we do to be saved? |
| 10417 | The Best Religion A religion of just being kind would be a pretty good religion, do n''t you think so? |
| 10417 | The Folly of Living in the Future The question is often asked,"What becomes of all the Valedictorians and all the Class- Day Poets?" |
| 10417 | The Week- Day, Keep it Holy Did it ever strike you that it is a most absurd and semi- barbaric thing to set one day apart as"holy?" |
| 10417 | The question is as alive to- day as it was two thousand years ago-- what expression is best? |
| 10417 | To which class do you belong? |
| 10417 | Was it a plan of building modern tenement houses along scientific and sanitary lines? |
| 10417 | Was it called to provide funds for scientific research of various kinds that would add to human knowledge and prove a benefit to mankind? |
| 10417 | Was it to build technical schools and provide a means for practical and useful education? |
| 10417 | What for? |
| 10417 | What is Initiative? |
| 10417 | What kind of a man shall I be to- morrow? |
| 10417 | Where does_ Ivan the Terrible_ go when Death closes his eyes? |
| 10417 | Why should you cease to express your holiest and highest on Sunday? |
| 10417 | Why wait for an accident to discover Tom Potter? |
| 10417 | Will there not come a time when all men and women will work because it is a blessed gift-- a privilege? |
| 10417 | Would any priest ever preach and pray if somebody did n''t hoe? |
| 10417 | Yet all sermons have but one theme: how shall life be expressed? |
| 10417 | You have so much energy; and what will you do with it? |
| 31417 | MOVEMENTS WITHOUT CONTACT.--Question:''Would the table now be moved without contact?'' 31417 ''Are you a Persian?'' 31417 ''How deep?'' 31417 ( 2) Did he satisfy any trained observer in a series of experiments selected by the observer and not by himself? 31417 ( 3) Were the phenomena entirely beyond the scope of the conjurer''s art? 31417 Are they crystallisations of thought? 31417 At one of the meetings Mr. Traill Taylor read a paper under the title--Are Spirit Photographs necessarily the Photographs of Spirits?" |
| 31417 | But still the question obtrudes: How came these figures there? |
| 31417 | But where can any other field be found of equal interest? |
| 31417 | From whence does this"chain of mysteries"come? |
| 31417 | Have lens and light really nothing to do with their formation? |
| 31417 | He replaced it after a few seconds, and holding it up again, exclaimed,''Is it not pretty?'' |
| 31417 | He said to Lord Adare, now Lord Dunraven, who was present,''Will you take it from me? |
| 31417 | I asked,''Are you a fire worshipper?'' |
| 31417 | Is the source to be sought for in undiscovered powers and faculties of the men themselves, or in the action of other intelligences? |
| 31417 | Is there no one who will enter upon the task? |
| 31417 | It may be asked-- Why then introduce them at all? |
| 31417 | Mr. Home said,''Have you no faith? |
| 31417 | Of D. D. Home he said:"If our readers ask us--''Do you desire us to go on experimenting in these matters, as though Home''s phenomena were genuine?'' |
| 31417 | Pictorially they are vile, but how came they there? |
| 31417 | Sir Oliver Lodge has recently said:"What does a''proof''mean? |

| 26978 | I know this is a_ Noli Me tangere_, but what shall we do? 26978 ''_ The God of Peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly._''Shortly, didst thou say, dearest Lord? 26978 --_Massachusetts Historical Collections, I., v., 75._ The questions arise; When and why did he leave the Court? 26978 And here, what shall I say? 26978 But how with Cotton Mather''s Book, the_ Wonders of the Invisible World_? 26978 Her answer was,How do I know? |
| 26978 | I ask every person of candor and fairness, to consider whether it is just to treat authors in this way? |
| 26978 | If Mr. Mather is not alluded to in the following passage from Brattle''s letter, who is? |
| 26978 | If he was not present at his Examination before the Magistrates, how could he have spoken, as he did, of the righteousness of his sentence? |
| 26978 | It may be asked, what did he mean by"not laying more stress upon spectre testimony than it will bear,"and the general strain of the paragraph? |
| 26978 | Looking towards"the afflicted children,"who had sworn that her spectre tortured them, the Magistrate asked,"How comes your appearance to hurt these?" |
| 26978 | Lord what wilt thou do with me?" |
| 26978 | Mr. Hale limits the definition of a witch to the following:"Who is to be esteemed a capital witch among Christians? |
| 26978 | Now what are the facts? |
| 26978 | The Reviewer asks:"Were those five persons executed that day without any spiritual adviser?" |
| 26978 | The question is, Which of them is meant? |
| 26978 | The question is: Does it forbid, denounce, or dissuade, its introduction? |
| 26978 | The question now arises, what was Cotton Mather''s attitude towards them? |
| 26978 | To the question,"Who hurts you?" |
| 26978 | Was he present at any of the Examinations? |
| 26978 | What are the facts? |
| 26978 | What if the Courts do admit the testimony of the Devil in the appearance of a spectre, and, on its strength, consign to death the innocent? |
| 26978 | What right had Mather to insert this paragraph, at all, in his report of the_ trial_ of George Burroughs? |
| 26978 | What was the difficulty? |
| 26978 | Whence had they this supernatural sight? |
| 26978 | Where did he, our Reviewer, find authority for the positive statement that Winthrop"signed the Death- warrant?" |
| 26978 | Who can tell how far the good Angels of Heaven cooperate in those proceeding?" |
| 26978 | Why did he not, as the Reviewer says ought always have been done, protest utterly against its admission at all? |
| 26978 | Why did they have to"entreat"him, if he had come all the way from Boston for that purpose? |
| 26978 | Why did they not join their voices in this prayer, going up elsewhere, from all concerned, for the divine forgiveness? |
| 43548 | But if the question is: Shall I be successful in my lawsuit? |
| 43548 | Let it be supposed that the question is: Will a lawsuit be necessary? |

| 12480 | ''Ah, God be thanked,''exclaimed Roucher,''and what of I?'' |
| 12480 | ''But what, then, are you really telling us of Monsieur Cazotte? |
| 12480 | ''How do you know?'' |
| 12480 | ''Where? |
| 12480 | ''Yes,''replied Chamfort,''but when will all this happen?'' |
| 12480 | Again, is it not wonderful that our memories preserve the images of the sounds and forms which were placed there perhaps fifty years and more ago? |
| 12480 | Can you Psychometrize? |
| 12480 | Cazotte replied:''You? |
| 12480 | Do you get this clearly? |
| 12480 | Do you not realize that you are attempting to place a limit upon Nature, which in reality is illimitable? |
| 12480 | Does death end all: or is it merely"the gate of life"? |
| 12480 | How do these memory images survive and exist? |
| 12480 | How is it possible to"see"a thing that no longer exists? |

| 12480 | In that time she heard the bridge clock strike two, and a while after said:''In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, what art thou?'' |
| 12480 | Is it any wonder that cures take place under these circumstances? |
| 12480 | Is it the weight of force of will which insensibly influences us; the force of will behind the advice? |
| 12480 | It seems strange to hear of this kind of visioning as purely natural, does n''t it? |
| 12480 | Surely such a wonderful law is well worth study, attention, investigation, and mastery, is n''t it? |
| 12480 | This being so, why your insistence upon the''close relation in space''just mentioned?--what is the reason for this nearness?" |

| 12480 | What is a"sense,"when you get right down to it? |

| 12480 | What is the matter?'' |
| 12480 | What right have you to assert that all beyond your customary range of sense experience is outside of Nature? |
| 12480 | What would you think if you could"see through a brick wall?" |

| 14099 | So long as we leave the doors unclosed they do n''t harm us: why should we be afraid of them? |
| 14099 | We laughed at this and asked:''Who will be appointed to the dispensary?'' |
| 14099 | What exactly does it mean? |
| 14099 | What was about to happen? 14099 What was it?" |
| 14099 | What? |
| 14099 | Where? |
| 14099 | ''Is that a boat turned over?'' |
| 14099 | ''Why?'' |

| 14099 | A few days later Miss B. said to E. C.:"I hear such strange noises every night-- are there any people in the adjoining part of the building?" |
| 14099 | All I could do was to speak; I cried out,"Who are you? |
| 14099 | And if so, what meaning would he put upon the word"spirits"? |
| 14099 | B. been down at our house that afternoon, and I casually asked her:"''Who was the man who was just behind me when I met you on Dick''s Brae?'' |
| 14099 | B., why have you come?" |
| 14099 | Can we contemptuously fling aside such a weight of evidence as unworthy of even a cursory examination? |
| 14099 | Coming back she met the boy pale and trembling, and on asking him why he left the room, he replied,"Who is that woman-- who is that woman?" |
| 14099 | Did he never hear of such- and- such a haunted house, or place?" |
| 14099 | For myself I can not guarantee the genuineness of a single incident in this book-- how could I, as none of them are my own personal experience? |
| 14099 | He does not therefore condemn these offhand; he is content to suspend judgment, is he not? |
| 14099 | However, we are not concerned with explanations( for who, as yet, can explain the supernatural? |
| 14099 | I called out in amazement,''What has happened to the chair?'' |
| 14099 | I said,''Who are you?'' |
| 14099 | I started up, and said,''Is there anything wrong?'' |
| 14099 | I to sleep in the tapestry chamber? |
| 14099 | Naturally I said,''What accident, Mary?'' |
| 14099 | Once again he appeared, and seemed to say to me,''Why did you do that, E----? |
| 14099 | She left the bedroom, and called to her daughter, who was in a lower room,"What do you want?" |
| 14099 | The question is, Why do they occur at all? |
| 14099 | The servants asked,"Corney, why did you not speak?" |
| 14099 | The two boys were moved to the haunted room[ which one? |
| 14099 | We asked, thinking that the answer was absurd, as we knew him to be alive and well:"''Are you dead?'' |
| 14099 | We said:"''Who are you?'' |
| 14099 | What do you want?" |
| 14099 | Where was I to get them from? |
| 14099 | Why can not he adopt the same attitude with respect to psychic phenomena? |
| 14099 | was he suffering from delusions? |
| 42889 | Are people with this blemish morally, mentally, or physically deficient? |
| 42889 | Besides, as the results produced by their methods were astoundingly correct, why should we imagine ourselves capable of bettering their theories? |
| 42889 | Does it not, by laying bare the vices and weaknesses of human nature, induce a cynical opinion of human nature? |
| 42889 | Now, if this were so at one moment, why should it not be so always? |

| 2529 | And what sort of evidence is logically possible? |
| 2529 | Buhler says( p. 303):"We ask ourselves the general question:''WHAT DO WE EXPERIENCE WHEN WE THINK?'' |
| 2529 | But why should we suppose that there is some one common cause of all these appearances? |
| 2529 | Can we constitute memory out of images together with suitable beliefs? |
| 2529 | Can we say, conversely, that it consists wholly of such accuracy of response? |
| 2529 | Does the image persist in presence of the sensation, so that we can compare the two? |
| 2529 | For what is it to imagine a winged horse but to affirm that the horse[ that horse, namely] has wings? |
| 2529 | How do I know that there is awareness? |
| 2529 | How do we know that the sensation resembles the previous image? |
| 2529 | How is it possible to know that a memory- image is an imperfect copy, without having a more accurate copy by which to replace it? |
| 2529 | How, then, are we to find any way of comparing the present image and the past sensation? |
| 2529 | If we are asked"What is the capital of France?" |
| 2529 | If we suppose it effected, what would become of the difference between vital and mechanical movements? |
| 2529 | If you ask a boy"What is twice two?" |
| 2529 | Is there ultimately no difference, or do images remain as irreducibly and exclusively psychological? |
| 2529 | Is"consciousness"ultimate and simple, something to be merely accepted and contemplated? |
| 2529 | It is clear that the question turns upon another, namely, which can we know best, the psychology of animals or that of human beings? |
| 2529 | It may be said: If there is no single existent which is the source of all these"aspects,"how are they collected together? |
| 2529 | Now, what are the occasions when, we actively believe that Charles I was executed? |
| 2529 | One of the laws which distinguish psychology( or nerve- physiology?) |
| 2529 | Or that insects, in laying eggs, are concerned for the preservation of their species? |
| 2529 | Or, to state the same question in other terms: How is psychology to be distinguished from physics? |
| 2529 | Our two questions are, in the case of memory:( 1) What is the present occurrence when we remember? |
| 2529 | Suppose two children in a school, both of whom are asked"What is six times nine?" |
| 2529 | There are two distinct questions to be asked:( 1) What causes us to say that a thing occurs? |
| 2529 | What sort of evidence is there? |
| 2529 | Who can believe, for example, that a new- born baby is aware of the necessity of food for preserving life? |
| 2529 | William James''s view was first set forth in an essay called"Does''consciousness''exist? |
| 43954 | ''But what, then, are you really telling us of, Monsieur Cazotte? |
| 43954 | ''How did you know?'' |
| 43954 | ''Yes,''replied Chamfort,''but when will all this happen?'' |
| 43954 | Do you see what we mean? |
| 43954 | God be thanked,''exclaimed Roucher,''and what of I?'' |
| 43954 | There are no vibrations emanating from past scenes, and as they no longer exist, how can anyone see them, by Astral Vision, or by any other means?" |
| 43954 | the princesses of the blood?'' |
| 43954 | who then will be the happy mortal to whom this prerogative will be given?'' |
| 17815 | Again, how are we to shape to ourselves real objective existence? |
| 17815 | And here at once there forces itself on our attention the question, What exactly is to be understood by the term"illusion"? |
| 17815 | And here there naturally arises the question, How shall we define an illusion of perception? |
| 17815 | But how is it, it may be asked, that this feeling shows itself instinctively as soon as the idea of self begins to arise in consciousness? |
| 17815 | But if the sensation is properly attended to, can there be error through a misapprehension of what is actually in the mind at the moment? |
| 17815 | Can you tell me how to express this in mathematical symbols? |
| 17815 | Does this way of putting the subject seem alarming? |
| 17815 | He will be inclined to say,"What does it matter whether you call such an apparently permanent belief the correlative of a reality or an illusion? |
| 17815 | How are we to account for this? |
| 17815 | How are we to regard this discrepancy? |
| 17815 | How can we account for this? |
| 17815 | How, then, it may be asked, can we ever be certain that we are faithfully recalling the actual events of the past? |
| 17815 | I put together the riddle,"What might a wooden ship say when her side was stove in? |
| 17815 | I was annoyed at the interruption, but said, with a feeling of triumph,"I suppose you mean Wieland?" |
| 17815 | In other words, the habitual indulgence of a certain anticipation tends to an illusory view, not only of the"when?" |
| 17815 | Is it a mere efflux from sensation, a passive conformity of representation to sensation( sensualism or empiricism)? |
| 17815 | Is it an appalling thought that our normal mental life is thus intimately related to insanity, and graduates away into it by such fine transitions? |
| 17815 | Is it something wholly independent of the mind( realism)? |
| 17815 | Is our life a dream? |
| 17815 | Is perception, as popularly understood, after all, a big hallucination? |
| 17815 | Is the mode of demonstration of such a kind as to be likely ever to materially weaken the common- sense''intuition''?" |
| 17815 | Is this valid or illusory? |
| 17815 | Just as a child''s importunate"Why?" |
| 17815 | Must we say that in the latter case there are two sensations, only that, being so similar, they are confused one with another? |
| 17815 | Now, it may be asked, why should we tend to transform the concave into the convex, rather than the convex into the concave? |
| 17815 | Now, whence comes this large and approximately uniform discrepancy between our self- esteem and others''esteem of us? |
| 17815 | On purely scientific ground we can not answer the question,"How far does illusion extend?" |
| 17815 | Or is it, on the contrary, something involving mind( idealism)? |
| 17815 | To- day, as in the days of Plato and Aristotle, are argued, in slightly altered forms, the vexed questions, What is true cognition? |
| 17815 | What is the reason of this? |
| 17815 | What will follow from this? |
| 17815 | Who has not felt an unpleasant disenchantment on revisiting some church, house, or park that seemed a wondrous paradise to his young eyes? |
| 17815 | Why is this? |
| 17815 | _ Illusions of Introspection defined._ This inquiry naturally sets out with the question: What is meant by introspection? |
| 17815 | _ Simple Illusory Belief_:--( 1) Expectation: its nature, 297, 298; Is Expectation ever intuitive? |
| 17815 | _ Sleep and Dreaming_:--Condition of organism during sleep, 131, 132; Are the nervous centres ever wholly inactive during sleep? |
| 17815 | but also of the"how?" |
| 17815 | or is it, on the other hand, a construction of active thought, involving certain necessary forms of intelligence( rationalism or intuitivism)? |
| 28699 | ''Doth this doctrine teach you to know God, or to be skilful in the heavens?'' 28699 A dreamer?" |
| 28699 | And what, pray, was the message? |
| 28699 | Can the truthfulness of the narrative,one skeptical inquirer wrote Mr. Roff,"be substantiated outside of yourself and those immediately interested? |

| 28699 | And another asked him,"Is it a fact, or is it a story made up to see how cunning a tale one can tell?" |
| 28699 | Can it be shown that there was no collusion between the parties?" |
| 28699 | God is with you, and who shall be against you? |
| 28699 | In the medium?" |
| 28699 | Is the"spirit"present in both places at the same time-- in the shadowy apparition, and in the living, breathing, busily- occupied human entity? |
| 28699 | Keeping these facts before us, what do we find? |
| 28699 | Ma, why did you not show me my letters and things before?" |
| 28699 | No doubt they would like to inspect the church, perhaps to visit the school; it might even be they were desirous of meeting the pastor? |
| 28699 | She glared wildly around, and in an agitated tone demanded,"Where am I? |
| 28699 | The critic in question writes:"what evidence has the author that an apparition of the living is not a spirit? |
| 28699 | VIII THE MYSTERIOUS MR. HOME"So you''ve brought the devil to my house, have you?" |

| 28699 | What are you gaping at?" |
| 28699 | What, it is necessary to ask, did the Wesleys actually hear and see in the course of the two months that they had their ghost with them? |
| 28699 | Who might be this evil disposed person? |
| 28699 | Who, in truth, save Urbain Grandier? |
| 28699 | Who, then, was the agent? |
| 28699 | Why may not the spirit of the living person have left his body and appeared to his friend? |
| 28699 | With a smile of delight Lurancy picked up the hat, mentioned an incident connected with it, and asked,"Have you my box of letters also?" |
| 28699 | Would he, then, make the quest, and would he permit Myers to pursue it by his side? |

| 12890 | May a Hamlet, patiently struggling after truth and duty, be put upon and abused by the darker powers? |
| 12890 | May an undistinguishing fate sweep away at once the good with the evil-- Hamlet with Laertes; Desdemona with Iago; Cordelia with Edmund? |

| 34475 | Can it be, said I to myself, that this beautiful girl, so charming and graceful, so full of life and intelligence, is truly a spirit? |
| 34475 | I know how two got in, but where did the other two come from? |
| 34475 | I said,"For what?" |
| 34475 | I said,"I do not remember you; did I ever see you before?" |

| 34475 | SÉANCE AT THE BERRY SISTERS''IN BOSTON 99 X. MATERIALIZED FORMS-- HOW SHALL WE MEET THEM? |
| 34475 | Was I deceived,--laboring under a state of hallucination? |
| 34475 | Was it mind- reading? |
| 34475 | Was it not a disgrace to science that this had been allowed to go on so long without any honest attempt to investigate it? |
| 34475 | Was it possible that I had stood face to face and been in communication with one from another life? |
| 34475 | Was the close resemblance due to the fact that Mrs. Fay was sitting by my side? |
| 34475 | Was this another phase of them? |
| 34475 | What do you think of this?" |
| 34475 | What need of words when thoughts are told In light that gleams like burnished gold, With pulse that throbs to mine? |

| 43755 | Are you ambitious? |
| 43755 | Do you aspire to better things? |
| 43755 | Do you care to be considered an intelligent, interesting capable person? |
| 43755 | Has your school education been neglected? |
| 43755 | Have they not some reason for being so? |
| 43755 | How can a person of scanty information-- ignorant of the world and its doings, carry a proud bearing with a high and noble spirit? |
| 43755 | If you consider yourself a nobody, do you care to be somebody? |
| 43755 | Is it not self- esteem; self- appreciation and valuation; self- respect and reliance; nobleness, independence and dignity? |
| 43755 | Is it to be wondered at that such a person acts and feels cheap and diminutive? |
| 43755 | What is pride? |
| 43755 | With these only for his mental food, how can a young man make himself entertaining and agreeable with chatty talk on the light topics of the day? |
| 43755 | _ Going into company;--associating with miscellaneous people._ 1. Who ever knew a really proud person to be bashful and diffident? |
| 43755 | _ Why_ should you be timid and backward, and show by your hesitating ways that you do not feel at ease? |
| 15489 | And you do not wish her to conceive a child? |
| 15489 | But what occurrence has given rise to this dream? |
| 15489 | Do you happen to know upon what charge you were arrested? |
| 15489 | How did the salmon mentioned in the dream occur to you? |
| 15489 | Infanticide? 15489 The woman is married?" |
| 15489 | Then you do not practice normal coitus? |
| 15489 | [ 4]And under what circumstances did you dream; what happened on the evening before?" |
| 15489 | ( 2) What is the motive or the motives which have made such transformation exigent? |
| 15489 | ( A grown- up woman?) |
| 15489 | A frequent, not very intelligible, symbol for the same is a nail- file( on account of the rubbing and scraping?). |
| 15489 | After I had told her of this childish belief, she at once confirmed it with an anecdote in which the boy asks the girl:"Was it cut off?" |
| 15489 | And how about the value of the dream for a knowledge of the future? |
| 15489 | But can one wish for anything pleasanter after a disagreeable incident than that the exact contrary should have occurred, just as the dream has it? |
| 15489 | But should n''t it be the_ other way round_?" |
| 15489 | But to what opposition or to what diversity do we refer this"whence"? |
| 15489 | But what is the meaning of this hysterical identification? |
| 15489 | But what is the relation of the foreconscious day remnants to the dream? |
| 15489 | But why does she need an unfulfilled wish? |
| 15489 | But you know that only a mother can commit this crime upon her newly born child?" |
| 15489 | For example, who would suspect a sexual wish in the following dream until the interpretation had been worked out? |
| 15489 | Goethe:"And if he has no backside, how can the nobleman sit?" |
| 15489 | Have not the unconscious feelings revealed by the dream the value of real forces in the psychic life? |
| 15489 | How do you reconcile that with your theory? |
| 15489 | I asked the dreamer this, and she answered without hesitation:"Has n''t the treatment made me as though I were born again?" |
| 15489 | I only ask for time in which to arrange my affairs._ Can you possibly suppose this is a wish of mine to be arrested?" |
| 15489 | Now of what did this lean friend speak? |
| 15489 | Now tell me, what does this mean? |
| 15489 | Now the dream reversed this wished- for solution; was not this in the flattest contradiction to my theory of wish- fulfillment in the dream? |
| 15489 | Now what can be the meaning of the patient''s wishing to be born at her summer resort? |
| 15489 | Or does the dream mean that I wish Charles to be dead rather than Otto, whom I like so much better?" |
| 15489 | She also asked my patient:"When are you going to invite us again? |
| 15489 | Should we take lightly the ethical significance of the suppressed wishes which, as they now create dreams, may some day create other things? |
| 15489 | What does that mean? |
| 15489 | What have we now to advance concerning this latter psychic process? |
| 15489 | What justifies our assertion that the dream removes the disturbance of sleep? |
| 15489 | What part now remains in our description of the once all- powerful and all- overshadowing consciousness? |
| 15489 | What provoked the dream in the example which we have analyzed? |
| 15489 | Whence came the one florin fifty kreuzers? |
| 15489 | Where does she get the words which she puts into my mouth? |
| 15489 | Why does this crime, which is peculiar to females, occur to you?" |
| 15489 | You know me: am I really bad enough to wish my sister to lose the only child she has left? |
| 15489 | _"She wants to pay something; her daughter takes three florins sixty- five kreuzers out of her purse; but she says:''What are you doing? |

| 35350 | But suppose he was a Sorcerer, are there also some of them so devout as this man appears to be? |
| 35350 | But what is a living stone? |
| 35350 | Do you not comprehend my son, with what simplicity nature can render to man the goods which he has lost? |
| 35350 | Do you still( said he) rather believe your own Whimseys, than Natural Reason? |
| 35350 | Good Lord( cried I) What do I hear? |
| 35350 | Hast thou also submitted thyself to the yoke? |
| 35350 | He has talked to me of these Sylphes with great earnestnes: should he prove a sorcerer in the upshot? |
| 35350 | How Sir( cried I), would you persuade me, that these friends you speak of are married? |
| 35350 | How can I tell? |
| 35350 | How long think you, that our Sages can subsist without eating? |
| 35350 | How many learned men( in former ages) In all the sciences were counted Sages? |
| 35350 | How shall we remount this throne and recover this lost sovereignty? |
| 35350 | How( said I) can you see them die, and yet your commerce renders them immortal? |
| 35350 | I had fastened my tokens round my hat of which the young King soon took notice, and demanded if I were he, who could at the gate redeem those tokens? |
| 35350 | In case we all of us were lords, and possessed all the goods upon earth, and were seated at table, who would there then be to bring up the service?'' |
| 35350 | Is it impossible that amongst the wandering spirits he may not have been worsted in a conflict with some undocible Hobgoblin? |
| 35350 | Is it possible that he can thus suffer himself to be filled with these fooleries? |
| 35350 | Is it possible that the excellentest of all men should be in my study? |
| 35350 | It seems( continued he) that you should be but ill read in Physicks, that can not be persuaded of the existence of these people? |
| 35350 | Pray what can more improve the Commonwealth, Than the discovery of the way to Health? |
| 35350 | Sir( cried I, remembering that I had a ticklish game to play) how shall I render myself worthy of so much goodness? |
| 35350 | What Pains have learn''d Physitians For cleansing Physiques[ strange perturbed] Brook? |
| 35350 | What remedy for this evil? |
| 35350 | Where am I? |
| 35350 | Why do they study thee so little? |
| 35350 | and should I have been deceived till now, in believing that there were no such things? |
| 35350 | art thou here too? |
| 35350 | that the great Gabalis should honour me with his visit? |
| 35350 | what is such a Time, in respect of Eternity? |
| 44085 | CHAPTER II: FATIGUE AND REST What causes sleep? |
| 44085 | CHAPTER VIII: WISH FULFILMENT An evening paper published recently a cartoon showing a kiddie in bed who asks his mother:"What makes me dream?" |
| 44085 | How could we understand sleep unless we understood the phenomena which take place in sleep: dreams? |
| 44085 | If dreams"come from the stomach"why should distressed minds seek refuge in them? |
| 44085 | If they are purely psychic phenomena, what relief can they afford to our dissatisfied body? |
| 44085 | The answer: brain anaemia, is unsatisfactory for we may ask in turn: what causes brain anaemia? |
| 44085 | The first question she asked on arising,''Where is mama?'' |
| 44085 | This must be constantly borne in mind when we attempt to answer the question: Where do dreams come from? |
| 44085 | What causes us to withdraw partly our attention from our environment? |
| 44085 | What does he say of his awakening? |
| 44085 | What then induces sleep? |
| 44085 | Wherein, then, does sleep differ from waking life? |
| 44085 | Why is it then, that many people suffer from insomnia? |
| 44085 | Why should she wish to see it wrecked? |
| 41478 | Did you lose your eye since then? |
| 41478 | ''Their weight?'' |
| 41478 | ( 2) WHENCE? |
| 41478 | ( 3) WHERE? |
| 41478 | ( 4) WHEN? |
| 41478 | ( 5) HOW? |
| 41478 | ( 6) WHY? |
| 41478 | ( 7) WHITHER? |
| 41478 | After a fortnight or so of this, Catherine said''why do n''t you relate to me the events of the day instead of recalling them to yourself? |
| 41478 | Clay took a sharp look at him and said:"I met you in Kentucky many years ago, did I not?" |
| 41478 | Do you want to hard enough-- have you the determination to keep at it? |
| 41478 | How can the memory remember, when it is not given anything in the way of clear impressions? |
| 41478 | It will draw out many bits of information and associated knowledge in your mind_:( 1) WHAT? |
| 41478 | V. What things can I most readily associate with it? |
| 41478 | What are its attributes, qualities and characteristics? |
| 41478 | What are its natural results-- what happens because of it? |
| 41478 | What caused it? |
| 41478 | What do I know about it, in the way of general information? |
| 41478 | What do I think of it, on the whole-- what are my general impressions regarding it? |
| 41478 | What does it prove-- what can be deduced from it? |
| 41478 | What have I heard about it, and from whom, and when? |
| 41478 | What history or record has it? |
| 41478 | What is it good for-- how may it be used-- what can I do with it? |
| 41478 | What is it like? |
| 41478 | What is its future; and its natural or probable end or finish? |
| 41478 | Where did it come from or originate? |
| 41478 | Why? |
| 40823 | In the morning my nephew said,''Well, Aunt, I hope you were comfortable and had a good night?'' 40823 What are you talking about?" |
| 40823 | Why ca n''t you? |
| 40823 | Again, and again, sceptics, with would- be smartness, have said to me,"Where do ghosts get their clothes? |
| 40823 | Ande here"into"illusionary? |
| 40823 | But what about the apparition? |
| 40823 | Can I do anything for you?" |
| 40823 | Can it be that it is, after all, the little learning that makes the man the fool? |
| 40823 | Can it be that these dreams are reminiscences of a former existence, of scenes with which I was once familiar? |
| 40823 | Could it have been a case of suggestion?" |
| 40823 | Dare I remain down there and wait for the phenomena? |
| 40823 | Did you see it?" |
| 40823 | I wonder if the sensations you experienced were in any way due to her?''" |
| 40823 | Is such a thing possible?" |
| 40823 | My curiosity, however, was far greater than my fear, and I kept asking myself what the Thing was, and why it was there? |
| 40823 | Now, was this a case of unconscious projection, or merely of suggestion? |
| 40823 | Or have they been vividly portrayed to me by an Elemental? |
| 40823 | Shall I tell you what I can see in this room?'' |
| 40823 | The question now arises-- to what cause could the vision be attributed? |
| 40823 | There are surely no tailoring establishments in the psychic world?" |
| 40823 | This being so, why, then, should not all such demonstrations, whether manifesting themselves individually or collectively, be objective? |
| 40823 | Unfortunately, I did not count the strokes; but what do you think it means?" |
| 40823 | Whatever makes you think of him?" |
| 40823 | You remember H. at school, do n''t you? |
| 28875 | What is it? |
| 28875 | What was the voice? |
| 28875 | Who are here? |
| 28875 | And fancy, hath it not the skill of artist and architect? |
| 28875 | And the desires, are they not like unto the richly laden argosies of commerce? |
| 28875 | And what shall we more say? |
| 28875 | Are David and Dante dead? |
| 28875 | Are not Tennyson and Milton a thousandfold more alive to- day than when they walked this earth? |
| 28875 | At length an officer touched the mayor and said:"Do you know you have been dead a long while? |
| 28875 | But can a human instrument, long out of tune and sadly injured, e''er be brought back to harmony of being? |
| 28875 | But is there any divine power to cast up some divine highway? |
| 28875 | But what if the parents should remember only that the clothes and hat came from some famous pattern? |
| 28875 | Can one poorly born journey toward greatness of stature? |
| 28875 | Does he want stone for his foundations or marble for his finishings? |
| 28875 | Has Schopenhauer carried the judgment of mankind by his favorite motto,"It is safer to trust fear than faith?" |
| 28875 | Have doubt and skepticism burned the divine dew off the grass, and left it sere and brown? |
| 28875 | His inventions, who can number? |
| 28875 | How clear him? |
| 28875 | How do hand and vision protect man? |
| 28875 | Is it because our age has lost faith in God? |
| 28875 | Is it possible that ease and lack of responsibility, with opium, helped wreck him? |
| 28875 | Is the soul soiled by sin, to be cast off by the divine Sculptor? |
| 28875 | Is there a happiness? |
| 28875 | Let him who knoweth what is in us reply:"What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" |
| 28875 | Many stand before the vast abyss of literature as Bunyan''s pilgrim stood before the Slough of Despond, crying:"What shall I do?" |
| 28875 | Must he give up his life, so useful and helpful, and all to save a possible year or two of life for this old man? |
| 28875 | Must he go back again to the galleys with their profanity and obscenity? |
| 28875 | Must he resign his mayoralty and his wealth? |
| 28875 | Since, therefore, conscience partakes of this divine nature and speaks as an oracle, what are its uses and functions? |
| 28875 | This would show great zeal toward the hat and the coat, but meanwhile what is to become of the boy? |
| 28875 | Were not these two young wards whom he was supporting more than this one old wreck? |
| 28875 | What about to- day''s purity, to- day''s loaf and to- day''s friendships? |
| 28875 | What can an Eskimo, whose highest conception of summer is a stunted bush, know of tropical orchards, of luscious peach, pear and plum? |
| 28875 | What did that critic mean when he said of a rich young friend,"He needs poverty alone to make him a great painter?" |
| 28875 | What flute or harp is comparable for sweetness to the voice? |
| 28875 | What if they should put a strait- jacket about the chest to restrain the stature? |
| 28875 | What is man''s value to society? |
| 28875 | What to it are nuggets or millions?" |
| 28875 | What was his woe? |
| 28875 | What was it in him jeering and mocking? |
| 28875 | What would the youth of genius not give for the friendship of some Bacon or Shakespeare? |
| 28875 | What, then, is conscience? |
| 28875 | Whence came his herculean strength? |
| 28875 | Who gave these steeds their color? |
| 28875 | Who is He? |
| 28875 | Who is He? |
| 28875 | Who shall measure the divine literatures possible to all these combinations of thought, feeling and aspiration? |
| 28875 | Why is our age so sad? |
| 28875 | Wise men will ask, where were the hidings of this man''s power? |
| 28875 | [ 1] How comes it that this little colony has raised up this great company of authors, statesmen, reformers? |
| 28163 | And when they saw him they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? 28163 Do you know why money is so scarce, brothers?" |
| 28163 | Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God? 28163 Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? |
| 28163 | Why callest thou me good? 28163 Again it is as Jesus said:For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and lose his own life?" |
| 28163 | And Goethe had a still deeper vision when he said:"Who is the happiest of men? |
| 28163 | And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? |
| 28163 | And may I say a word here to our Christian ministry, that splendid body of men for whom I have such supreme admiration? |
| 28163 | And may I say here this word to those outside, and especially to this class of young men and young women outside of our churches? |
| 28163 | And what really underlies the making of a record? |
| 28163 | Are we ready for this high type of spiritual adventure? |
| 28163 | As His words are recorded by Matthew:"Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? |
| 28163 | As Jesus said:"And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" |
| 28163 | But what, after all, does this mean? |
| 28163 | Can he be made into a spiritual man? |
| 28163 | Can not this healing process be greatly accelerated by a voluntary and conscious action of the mind, assisted, if need be, by some other person? |
| 28163 | Do you know that incident in connection with the little Scottish girl? |
| 28163 | Hast thou not heard that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth fainteth not, neither is weary? |
| 28163 | His question was:"Master, which is the great commandment in the law?" |
| 28163 | If you go back to the olden time and the old conflicts, the question was,''What is the relation of Jesus Christ to the Eternal?'' |
| 28163 | In clear and unmistakable words he made it known-- and why should he not? |
| 28163 | Is it like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened?" |
| 28163 | Jesus was right-- What doth it profit? |
| 28163 | Many times his question was:"Believe ye that I am able to do this?" |
| 28163 | No matter how the die is cast, Or who may seem to win-- We know that we must love at last-- Why not begin? |
| 28163 | Now what is the Divine call? |
| 28163 | Or according to our idiom-- who can understand him? |
| 28163 | Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? |
| 28163 | Or with what comparison shall we compare it? |
| 28163 | Peace? |
| 28163 | Peace? |
| 28163 | Peace? |
| 28163 | Shall we look for a moment to the first? |
| 28163 | Shall we recall again in this connection:"I am come that ye might have life and that ye might have it more abundantly"? |
| 28163 | Should not each one do his share? |
| 28163 | Wars have been fought over the question,''Was he of one substance with the Father?'' |
| 28163 | Was Mayor Jones a Christian? |
| 28163 | Was he a member of a religious organisation? |
| 28163 | What can be plainer? |
| 28163 | What is the cause of this almost world- wide difference in these two lives? |
| 28163 | What right have I to call them his fundamentals? |
| 28163 | Where were the books? |
| 28163 | Who made up the complete list? |
| 28163 | Why be disconcerted, why in a heat concerning so many things? |
| 28163 | Why be so eager to gain possession of the hundred thousand or the half- million acres, of so many millions of dollars? |
| 28163 | Wist ye not that I must be about my father''s business? |
| 28163 | [ Footnote E: Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? |
| 28163 | _ We touch the Father when we help His child._ Jesus taught us not to come to God asking, art Thou this or that? |
| 52165 | Less to be trusted is_ Panusch_( surely a corruption of the Greek god Pan? |
| 38448 | And when is all this going to happen? |
| 38448 | But they will not deny us a confessor? |
| 38448 | How so? |
| 38448 | Surely not princesses of the royal blood? |
| 38448 | Are they, on that account, nothing more than creatures of our imagination, set free by night and darkness? |
| 38448 | But the murdered man was not satisfied yet; he showed himself once more to the president and asked how he could prove his gratitude? |
| 38448 | Canst thou put no limit to thy thirst of conquest? |
| 38448 | Cazotte?" |
| 38448 | Do you see the Prince of Condé there? |
| 38448 | Finally the victim was conducted into a dark room, where he was suddenly asked by a stern, imperious voice:"Do you not see that woman in white?" |
| 38448 | Had not the same Academy pronounced against the use of quinine and vaccination, against lightning- rods and steam- engines? |
| 38448 | He asked her roughly what she was doing there? |
| 38448 | He stopped the driver and asked him what he had hidden in his wagon? |
| 38448 | Laharpe now asked:"And about me you say nothing, Cazotte?" |
| 38448 | Nor was this a solitary case, for on the same day a girl of fourteen, living near the city of Orleans, had asked her father, Simonne, what a king was? |
| 38448 | Then he asked the girl what she saw now? |
| 38448 | They cried out:"Who on earth has made you think of prisons, poison, and the executioner? |
| 38448 | They suggest the interesting but difficult question, whether visions and ecstasy can extend to large numbers of men at once? |
| 38448 | What have these things to do with philosophy and the reign of reason, which we anticipate and on which you but just now congratulated us?" |
| 38448 | What then can we learn from modern magic? |
| 38448 | When he asks if it is a good angel or a demon, no answer is given; but the question: Art thou the Devil? |
| 38448 | and if objects were placed against the sole of her foot, she would often exclaim:"What is that? |
| 38448 | will you not take time to translate the book? |
| 30601 | Contrary? |
| 30601 | Crazy? |
| 30601 | Do you enjoy talking? 30601 Do you think I would be a success?" |
| 30601 | How do you get stories out of them? |
| 30601 | Is it transportable? |
| 30601 | Is that all you ever see yourself doing? |
| 30601 | Oh, I do n''t know,the girl answered,"but it sounds so fascinating, do n''t you think?" |
| 30601 | She is a perfect housekeeper and a good wifeexclaim her friends--"why should her husband spend his evenings away from home?" |
| 30601 | Talk without wires? 30601 What about Helen?" |
| 30601 | What will you have to do? |
| 30601 | When you picture yourself in this profession what do you see yourself doing? |
| 30601 | Why did you ever choose German, anyhow, Ruth? |
| 30601 | Why wo n''t he run and play like other children? |
| 30601 | With all the leanings you had in that direction, how did it happen you did n''t follow it? |
| 30601 | Yes-- but is n''t that enough? |
| 30601 | Adapt or Die ¶ Who will win? |
| 30601 | Am I qualified? |
| 30601 | Ambition and Type ¶ Now what is it that causes some to have ambition and others to lack it? |
| 30601 | Are You a Ford or a Pierce? |
| 30601 | But where did grandmother get it? |
| 30601 | Can I make good? |
| 30601 | Did he do such things? |
| 30601 | Did you ever notice how things pick up when the fat ones appear? |
| 30601 | Do I like the activities demanded by this position?" |
| 30601 | Do you like to explain and expatiate? |
| 30601 | Ever ask the dreamer in your house to bring down a trunk from the attic? |
| 30601 | He Likes What Works ¶"Will it work?" |
| 30601 | Millionaires Marry Them ¶"Why does a brilliant business man marry that little fat woman who is not his equal mentally?" |
| 30601 | Note the body build-- which one of the five body types( as shown in Charts 1, 3, 5, 7, 9) does he most resemble? |
| 30601 | Pleasure or Pay? |
| 30601 | Remember the"Fatty"with a face like a full moon? |

| 30601 | The Deep Mystery ¶"What do you suppose is making me so plump?" |
| 30601 | The Man of Futile Movements ¶ Did you ever look on while a pure Cerebral man tried to move a kitchen stove? |
| 30601 | The Prettiest Type ¶ When a woman becomes engaged her friends all inquire,"What does he do?" |
| 30601 | The big question in treating this disease and its twin, Pneumonia, is: will the heart hold out? |
| 30601 | We Can Know ¶"But how is one to know the right person?" |
| 30601 | When out with others do you furnish your share of the conversation or a little more?" |
| 30601 | but when a man''s engagement is announced every one asks,"What does she look like?" |
| 30601 | or"Is there any demand for it?" |
| 17182 | Am I becoming Nu- nah? |
| 17182 | And so, most revered Father, all things are progressing favorably and toward a satisfactory culmination? |
| 17182 | But, truly life is sweet, especially to the young, is it not, my child? |
| 17182 | Can it be? |
| 17182 | Do you know your Rathunor? |
| 17182 | Have I the strength and manly courage to bear the disappointment born from a delusive hope? 17182 How is our new Sarthia?" |
| 17182 | Know you that this body was Nu- nah''s and this soul that of Sarthia''s? |
| 17182 | My beloved Priestess, did you speak to me of the stars, those loving lights in the heavens? 17182 My child,"he said at length,"are you ready for the great change now already at hand?" |
| 17182 | My darling husband, are you beside me-- are you where I can speak to you, and are we alone? |
| 17182 | O, most Holy and Revered Father, tell me, am I wrong in not listening to the monitions that are racking my inmost being? 17182 To- morrow night will be the full, and must we indeed lose our Sarthia before another new Moon? |
| 17182 | What is the result, Venerated Father? |
| 17182 | What was there in that music that so enchanted Nu- nah? 17182 Why, how is this?" |
| 17182 | Will that be soon? |
| 17182 | Am I not a strange interloper? |
| 17182 | Are there such possibilities for my soul?" |
| 17182 | Are they speaking to my darling child? |
| 17182 | Are you yourself again?" |
| 17182 | But, my child, if all these portents prove true, do you fear death? |
| 17182 | But, need we think by that, the blind forces of Nature can no more be controlled? |
| 17182 | Can my request be granted, O Priestess?" |
| 17182 | Can you hear me further?" |
| 17182 | Could she leave her Temple home, her opportunities for growth, her idolized Priestess, to go into the environments of Nu- nah? |
| 17182 | Did he dare for a moment listen to the whispering of the interior self? |
| 17182 | Did you so deeply love the Princess?" |
| 17182 | Do I make myself plain to you? |
| 17182 | Do you hear their silent voices and feel their subtle and powerful influences upon you?" |
| 17182 | Do you know, O my Rathunor, that our souls sustain that divine relation to each other that makes us immortal, because of being complete? |
| 17182 | Do you, dear Mother, and can you tell me?" |
| 17182 | Does he bring tidings from our revered Father? |
| 17182 | Has any new testimony been given by the stars that portends evil to our Sarthia?" |
| 17182 | Has not our worthy Father acquainted you with my new- found joy, my Love-- my Sister? |
| 17182 | Have all our teachings been in vain? |
| 17182 | How came I to know the chants and music of the Temple Service?" |
| 17182 | I have heard it before, but where, O, where? |
| 17182 | Is it not that there is something to know-- something that our common brains can not grasp and analyze? |
| 17182 | Is it your desire to become a Vestal of Isis? |
| 17182 | Is there not that longing, too, within your bosom for something more real, more ennobling than the pastimes of worldly pleasures?" |
| 17182 | Know you not the divine relation that exists between Sarthia and myself? |
| 17182 | Know you the young Princess Nu- nah?" |
| 17182 | May I hope the love that is growing within my soul will be surely recognized and reciprocated by Nu- nah on her return to physical health? |
| 17182 | May this not be the stars that we see twinkling and motioning to us as we gaze into the midnight heavens?" |
| 17182 | My Rathunor, are you satisfied? |
| 17182 | My brother Hermo?" |
| 17182 | Nu- nah what is that which produces the interior longings to know? |
| 17182 | Over and over he asked himself,"Can I wait to see my beloved sister?" |
| 17182 | Sarthia was bidden to rise, when the Priest, in measured and solemn tones, addressed her:"Do you come to pledge yourself to Temple Service? |
| 17182 | She turned and gazed upon her companion, mentally asking,"Can I become Nu- nah?" |
| 17182 | The Astrologer turned to Hermo and said,"Hear you the request of our Priestess here? |
| 17182 | They disappeared as mysteriously as they came, but where? |
| 17182 | Think you we have also fulfilled our promise that Rathunor shall love you?" |
| 17182 | Was it not worse by my decision to rob Nu- nah of her lover than to deprive her of continued physical life?" |
| 17182 | Was this change volitional? |
| 17182 | What did she see and hear that revived a faint memory of something in the past? |
| 17182 | What is the nature of these evil influences?" |
| 17182 | What magical force was it that drew her so irresistibly toward the Temple? |
| 17182 | What produced that quiver which preceded her falling insensible into his arms?" |
| 31341 | And did you not speak to it? |
| 31341 | And what answer, Mr. Justice, I pray you-- what answer did it make you? |
| 31341 | Are you quite sure of it? |
| 31341 | Are you sure it was an ass, Jervais? |
| 31341 | Do not you remember Mr.----, whose ghost has been so much talked of? 31341 My lord,"said they,"what can human force effect against people of t''other world? |
| 31341 | Who are you? 31341 Will Mary this charge on her courage allow?" |
| 31341 | ''Do not you remember, child,''said she,''that the pigeon- house fell the very afternoon that our careless wench spilt the salt upon the table?'' |
| 31341 | ''Tis true, thus far I''ve come with heedless haste; No reck''ning kept, no passing objects trac''d: And can I then have reach''d that very tree? |
| 31341 | ''_ How came you there?_''said they. |
| 31341 | ''_ Nay, how the devil know I?_''answered the mad- woman. |
| 31341 | After dinner, the merchant, taking him into his counting- room, said,"You do not recollect me?" |
| 31341 | Another question was, Whether some of the then company had not a relation that had been buried in the same vault where she lay? |
| 31341 | But pray, Sir, how went this affair? |
| 31341 | Had the story stopped here, what would not superstition have made of it? |
| 31341 | He suddenly stopped, and demanded who she was? |
| 31341 | I then leaped upon the forecastle, and asked of the people who were walking there, if such a figure had passed them? |
| 31341 | Is it a trick, or do I dream?" |
| 31341 | Is it for the credit of this philosophical age, that so bungling an imposture should deceive seven clergymen into a public act of exorcism? |
| 31341 | One of their Honours, this night, spoke; and, in the name of God, asked what it was? |
| 31341 | Or is its rev''rend form assum''d by thee?" |
| 31341 | The tallest of these young gentlemen then asked him, in a hoarse tone of voice, what was his heaviest sin? |
| 31341 | There it happened that a couple of young females, coming to the vault, heard a noise below, crying,''_ Who the plague are ye? |
| 31341 | They asked, severally, if it was their relation? |
| 31341 | Upon this, one of the company asked, whether it would return again, and at what time? |
| 31341 | Upon which they called out, and asked,''_ Who''s there? |
| 31341 | What are ye?_''''_ The Devil_,''replied the traveller below. |
| 31341 | What d''ye make that noise for? |
| 31341 | What is there in a church more than in any other building? |
| 31341 | When he had somewhat recovered his recollection, he ejaculated,"In the name of God, do tell me who you are? |
| 31341 | When knocking hard at the door, the maid- servant asked who was there? |
| 31341 | When shall I pass the vacant hours, Rejoicing in my woodbine bowers; To smoke my pipe, and sing my song; Regardless how they pass along? |
| 31341 | When take my fill of pastime there, In sweet forgetfulness of care?" |
| 31341 | Wherefore moan, and wherefore sigh? |
| 31341 | Who is she, the poor maniac, whose wildly fix''d eyes Seem a heart overcharg''d to express? |
| 31341 | and what they wanted? |
| 31341 | and why it disturbed them so? |
| 31341 | fathers, who was he, so gay, That stood beside the chapel door? |
| 31341 | the hollow- sounding gale Seems to sweep in murmurs by, Sinking slowly down the vale; Wherefore, gentle lady, sigh? |
| 31341 | what in darkness more than light, which in themselves should have power to raise such ideas as I have now experienced? |
| 31341 | what is it?'' |
| 42055 | But,finally he remarks,"is not a man''s stomach more to him than his back? |
| 42055 | *** Now, why do the various animals do what seem to us such strange things in the presence of such outlandish stimuli? |
| 42055 | But can they and do they? |
| 42055 | But do we find it so? |
| 42055 | But what are the"intellectual powers"so employed, and how are they employed? |
| 42055 | But what can we know about_ that which_ thinks, feels, and wills, and what can we find out about it? |
| 42055 | Can any one doubt that this course would bring great ultimate happiness? |
| 42055 | Do you realize the difficulty? |
| 42055 | For instance, one makes a remark, and at once we wonder,"How did he come to think of that?" |
| 42055 | Is it not true that what they believe to be original creations of the imagination are merely_ new combinations_ of original impressions? |
| 42055 | Not very clear this, is it? |
| 42055 | The cultivation of the"Why?" |
| 42055 | The influence of environment is great-- and what is environment but things perceived about one? |
| 42055 | The pig has but little imagination,--little pain and little joy,--but who envies the pig? |
| 42055 | To the metaphysician alone can such questions arise as: Why do we smile when pleased and not scowl? |
| 42055 | Try to form a mental picture of the general class of birds-- how will you do it? |
| 42055 | What is it to_ think_? |
| 42055 | What is the Mind? |
| 42055 | What matters it to us if the outside world be filled with manifold objects, if we do not perceive them to exist? |
| 42055 | What obstacle can stay the mighty force Of the sea- seeking river in its course, Or cause the ascending orb of day to wait? |
| 42055 | Where is it? |
| 42055 | Why are we unable to talk to a crowd as to a single friend? |
| 42055 | Why do men always lie down, when they can, on soft beds rather than on soft floors? |
| 42055 | Why do they sit around a stove on a cold day? |
| 42055 | Why does a particular maiden turn our wits upside down? |
| 42055 | Why does the maiden interest the youth so much that everything about her seems more important and significant than anything else in the world? |
| 42055 | Why, in a room, do they place themselves, ninety- nine times out of a hundred, with their faces toward its middle rather than to the wall? |
| 14461 | And in what part of the chamber do you now conceive the apparition to appear? |
| 14461 | And who got the mastery, I pray you? |
| 14461 | And why should that be unlucky? |
| 14461 | Is that the thanks I am to have for my labour? |
| 14461 | Ladies,he said,"this is very well, but somewhat monotonous-- will you be so kind as to change the tune?" |
| 14461 | Look you for thanks at my hand? |
| 14461 | Now,said the queen,"how long think you that you have been here?" |
| 14461 | Then I understand,continued the physician,"it is now present to your imagination?" |
| 14461 | This skeleton, then,said the doctor,"seems to you to be always present to your eyes?" |
| 14461 | What do you think of this? |
| 14461 | You say you are sensible of the delusion,said his friend;"have you firmness to convince yourself of the truth of this? |
| 14461 | & c. Canst thou dance no better? |
| 14461 | & c. Ransack the old records of all past times and places in thy memory; canst thou not there find out some better way of trampling? |
| 14461 | ''What will you have of me?'' |
| 14461 | ( 4) Durst you have used her in this manner if she had been rich? |
| 14461 | A young gentleman, brother to the lady, seeing him, switcht him about the ears, saying--''You warlock carle, what have you to do here?'' |
| 14461 | And can not a palsy shake such a loose leg as that? |
| 14461 | And has he not within a year Hang''d threescore of them in one shire? |
| 14461 | And what could any of us have done better, excepting in that case where she complied with you too much, and offered to let you swim her? |
| 14461 | And wherein differ thy leapings from the hoppings of a frog, or the bouncings of a goat, or friskings of a dog, or gesticulations of a monkey? |
| 14461 | Another, of a woman, who asked seriously, when she was accused, if a woman might be a witch and not know it? |
| 14461 | But see you yet a fourth road, sweeping along the plain to yonder splendid castle? |
| 14461 | But who has heard or seen an authentic account from Earl St. Vincent, or from his"companion of the watch,"or from his lordship''s sister? |
| 14461 | Can you take courage enough to rise and place yourself in the spot so seeming to be occupied, and convince yourself of the illusion?" |
| 14461 | Did the true Deity refuse Saul the response of his prophets, and could a witch compel the actual spirit of Samuel to make answer notwithstanding? |
| 14461 | Dost thou not twirl like a calf that hath the turn, and twitch up thy houghs just like a springhault tit? |
| 14461 | Have I not cause to have a sore heart?" |
| 14461 | He did not speak for the space of an hour, till his brother broke silence and asked,"How he did?" |
| 14461 | He thus expostulates with some of the better class who were eager for the prosecution:--"(1) What single fact of sorcery did this Jane Wenham do? |
| 14461 | I ask( 2) Did she so much as speak an imprudent word, or do an immoral action, that you could put into the narrative of her case? |
| 14461 | Is this the top of skill and pride, to shuffle feet and brandish knees thus, and to trip like a doe and skip like a squirrel? |
| 14461 | It was followed up by the counsel for the prisoners asking, in the cross- examination of MacPherson,"What language did the ghost speak in?" |
| 14461 | Pump thine invention dry; can not the universal seed- plot of subtile wiles and stratagems spring up one new method of cutting capers? |
| 14461 | Smack?" |
| 14461 | The strangers saluted her, and said,"Welcome, Bessie; wilt thou go with us?" |
| 14461 | They might say to the theologist, Will you not believe in witches? |
| 14461 | Thome answered,"Seest thou not me both meat- worth, clothes- worth, and well enough in person?" |
| 14461 | What charm did she use, or what act of witchcraft could you prove upon her? |
| 14461 | What single fact that was against the statute could you fix upon her? |
| 14461 | When he had come to her,''Sandie,''says she,''what is this you have done to my brother William?'' |
| 14461 | Who was your father? |
| 14461 | You remember, doubtless, the disease of which the Duke d''Olivarez is there stated to have died?" |
| 14461 | and doth not her poverty increase rather than lessen your guilt in what you did? |
| 14461 | and into whose hands did you put yourselves? |
| 14461 | and( if the true sense of the statute had been turned upon you) which way would you have defended yourselves? |
| 14461 | is this the dancing that Richard gave himself to thee for? |
| 14461 | said the apparition,"why must thou make such dole and weeping for any earthly thing?" |
| 14461 | says the afflicted young lady;"and what news do you bring?" |
| 45020 | Are you willing to be blindfolded? |
| 45020 | But where can I get a man? |
| 45020 | Can you tell where water is? |
| 45020 | Did you ever hear of''water- witching?'' |
| 45020 | How deep is the water? |
| 45020 | Then,said I,"how do you know where the spring is?" |
| 45020 | What would you say to an old barrel hoop? |
| 45020 | Why did you sit down? |
| 45020 | He asked,"Can you tell how deep it is to the water in the well in this hotel yard?" |
| 45020 | He came into my office one day and said:"Mr. Latimer, do you not think there is water under that ground?" |
| 45020 | I asked first,"What do you use?" |
| 45020 | Now, like the young students above cited, some one among you may exclaim,"Who will inform me who can be the author of this ridiculous superstition?" |
| 45020 | Who ever heard of a soul being buried? |
| 45020 | Why? |
| 45020 | do n''t you see the stick turn? |
| 45020 | who can tell me the author of so ridiculous an epitaph?" |
| 15568 | But why should any one be shooting in our garden at nearly midnight? |
| 15568 | Did you not see it? |
| 15568 | See what? |
| 15568 | Why, what is the matter? |
| 15568 | And in either case how can guilt be transferred from one person to the other? |
| 15568 | And when, do you suppose, twice two will cease to make four? |
| 15568 | But if the atom be imperfect as an atom, how could it combine with other atoms? |
| 15568 | But if unregulated thought acts as a centre of impulse, why should not regulated thought do the same? |
| 15568 | But perhaps the reader will say: How can a Word take form as a Person? |
| 15568 | But perhaps you will say,"Why should we want to have anything more to do with the physical plane? |
| 15568 | But perhaps you will say: How can this be, seeing that by the hypothesis the Soul of the Universe is Impersonal, and therefore unintelligent? |
| 15568 | But perhaps you will say:"How am I to know that I am not speaking my own Word instead of that of the Creative Spirit?" |
| 15568 | But perhaps you will say:"If this be true, what word or words am I to employ?" |
| 15568 | But some one will say: Why should we need such a Standard? |
| 15568 | But what do we mean by"Sin"? |
| 15568 | But what is accomplished by the journey of the Ego round the Circle of Life? |
| 15568 | But what is it in us that is aware of these two things, that hopes and fears and plans regarding them? |
| 15568 | But what starts the vibrations? |
| 15568 | But why should the reconstruction of a physical body be either necessary or desirable? |
| 15568 | But you heard the shot, did you not?" |
| 15568 | Do you not know that First Cause works by universal Law, and makes no exceptions?" |
| 15568 | Fancy a mathematician having to solve an equation, both sides of which were entirely made up of unknown quantities-- where would he be? |
| 15568 | First of all, why have we any physical body at all? |
| 15568 | Forgiveness of sin? |
| 15568 | How could you paint a picture without distinction of form, colour, or tone? |
| 15568 | How is it possible for the Laws of the Universe to make exceptions? |
| 15568 | How, then, does the Atonement come in? |
| 15568 | If it be to God, then how can a God who demands a sacrifice of blood be Love? |
| 15568 | If the Law can not be altered in the least particular, how can the Word be free to do what it likes? |
| 15568 | If the power of the Spirit over things of the material plane be an impossibility, then by what power did Jesus perform his miracles? |
| 15568 | In what direction is the conscious thought going to modify the action of the three principles that are below it? |
| 15568 | In what manner, then, is this influence conveyed? |
| 15568 | Instances of this kind might be multiplied, but as the French say"à quoi bon?" |
| 15568 | Now can we conceive any combination of the Law and the Word which would produce such results? |
| 15568 | One of the first things that naturally attract our attention is the question,--How did Life originate? |
| 15568 | Perhaps some one may say: Can not it_ make_ suitable channels for any sort of expression that it needs? |
| 15568 | Perhaps you will say:"What came of it?" |
| 15568 | Punishment for Sin? |
| 15568 | So then comes the question: What started this differentiation? |
| 15568 | Then our sceptic says,"What, do you think_ your_ word can do that?" |
| 15568 | Then our thought naturally passes on to the question what will happen after this? |
| 15568 | Then the question very naturally suggests itself: Why did not God create us so that we could not think negative or destructive thoughts? |
| 15568 | Then, since the Word is the Point of Origination, what is our conception of the best thing we can originate with it? |
| 15568 | They say:"How is it that apparitions are always seen in the dark?" |
| 15568 | This brings us to another important question-- is not the creative power of the Word limited by the immutability of the Law? |
| 15568 | To God or to the Devil? |
| 15568 | To whom is the sacrifice offered? |
| 15568 | We can not conceive of any time when it was not, for, if there was a time when no such Primary Energizing Life existed, what was there to energize it? |
| 15568 | Well, St. Paul is dead and buried, and so I suppose will most of us be in a few years; so the question confronts us, what becomes of us then? |
| 15568 | What further developments may follow, who shall say? |
| 15568 | What then does stop the flow of any sort of current? |
| 15568 | What then is likely to survive? |
| 15568 | What, then, is the"Motif"of Life? |
| 15568 | When, do you suppose, twice two began to make four? |
| 15568 | Where then are we to find the Word which will produce these conditions: perfect freedom from anxiety and continual, happy interest? |
| 15568 | Which comes first, the Law or the Word? |
| 15568 | Which of the two is to predominate? |
| 15568 | Why then does the balance preponderate to the life- side for a certain length of time, and then go over to the opposite side? |
| 15568 | [ 4] But what is it that occasions these vibrations of the nerves? |
| 15568 | viii, 2)? |
| 563 | Hence, why should anyone covet what is in the possession of his brother? |
| 563 | How could it if we are doing the Father''s work? |
| 14599 | Am I speaking too positively? |
| 14599 | And in this fact lies the whole answer to the question,"Why does man create pain for his own discomfort?" |
| 14599 | And when they open, what is it that is found? |
| 14599 | And why? |
| 14599 | At least, to ask a lesser question, is it impossible to make a guess as to the direction in which our goal lies? |
| 14599 | But are these results unknowable? |
| 14599 | But can any earnest student of Theosophy deny, or object to this? |
| 14599 | But what is the iron bar and the knot? |
| 14599 | Conquer what? |
| 14599 | Destiny, the inevitable, does indeed exist for the race and for the individual; but who can ordain this save the man himself? |
| 14599 | Does it not agree perfectly with the teaching of the Bhagavat- Gita? |
| 14599 | Granted, then, for the sake of our argument, that he desires pain, why is it that he desires anything so annoying to himself? |
| 14599 | Has the statement too dogmatic a sound? |
| 14599 | How else can he be where he is, or be at all? |
| 14599 | How is it possible to divide the infinite,--that which is one? |
| 14599 | How is it possible to obtain recognition of the inner man, to observe its growth and foster it? |
| 14599 | How is it that the profound sinner who lives for pleasure can at last feel stir within himself the divine afflatus? |
| 14599 | How, then, can he know that he lives? |
| 14599 | If religion be of God how is it that we find that same God in his own works and acts violating the precepts of religion? |
| 14599 | In contemplating a battlefield it is impossible to realize the agony of every sufferer; why, then, realize your own pain more keenly than another''s? |
| 14599 | In how many virtuous and religious men does not this same state exist? |
| 14599 | Is it not a pure statement of the law of Karma? |
| 14599 | Is it not enough to produce a weariness and sickness unutterable, to be forever accomplishing a task only to see it undone again? |
| 14599 | Is it too dogmatic to say that a man must have foothold before he can spring? |
| 14599 | Is there one? |
| 14599 | It can not answer the question"what am I?" |
| 14599 | Knowledge is man''s greatest inheritance; why, then, should he not attempt to reach it by every possible road? |
| 14599 | Otherwise how could they exist, even for an hour, in such a mental and psychic atmosphere as is created by the confusion and disorder of a city? |
| 14599 | Otherwise why place them so far off? |
| 14599 | Shall we not search for it? |
| 14599 | Some scant fragments we have of these great gifts of man; where, then, is the whole of which they must be a part? |
| 14599 | The disciple may say, Should I study these thoughts at all did I not seek out the way? |
| 14599 | This can not last always; why let it last any longer? |
| 14599 | VII What is the cure for this misery and waste of effort? |
| 14599 | What are these two gaunt figures, and why are they permitted to be our constant followers? |
| 14599 | What are those waters? |
| 14599 | What good fortune can we expect? |
| 14599 | What good has the drunkard obtained by his madness? |
| 14599 | What has given this ghastly shape the right to haunt us from the hour we are born until the hour we die? |
| 14599 | What then can he do but reconcile his conduct gradually to their rules? |
| 14599 | What then will be the value of the knowledge of its laws acquired by industry and observation? |
| 14599 | What value or strength is there in the neglected garden rose which has the canker in every bud? |
| 14599 | What we desire to discover is, who is the user; what part of ourselves is it that demands the presence of this thing so hateful to the rest? |
| 14599 | What we desire to discover is, who is the user; what part of ourselves is it that demands the presence of this thing so hateful to the rest?" |
| 14599 | When will that ultimate good be attained? |
| 14599 | Where is this to be found? |
| 14599 | Who cares for any intermediate states? |
| 14599 | Who places those obstacles there? |
| 14599 | Why does he desire his own hurt? |
| 14599 | Why does he not stay on this hill- top he has reached, and look away to the mountains beyond, and resolve to scale those greater heights? |
| 14599 | Why is this? |
| 14599 | Why long and look for that which is beyond all hope until the inner eyes are opened? |
| 14599 | Why not piece together the fragments that we have, at hand, and see whether from them some shape can not be given to the vast puzzle? |
| 14599 | Why should he not die for it? |
| 14599 | Why should this be, will be asked at once, if he is a being of such great powers as those say who believe in his existence? |
| 14599 | Why this useless labor? |
| 14599 | Why, then, should she shut her doors on any? |
| 14599 | Why? |
| 14599 | Yet is it for his own people to say he has done wrong, if he has injured no man and remained just? |
| 14599 | Yet man has undoubtedly within himself the heroism needed for the great journey; else how is it martyrs have smiled amid the torture? |
| 45282 | Is not my word like as a fire? 45282 But why should I wonder, if those who believe not Moses and the prophets, will not believe though one should rise from the dead? 45282 He asked,If I would be converted upon the tryal?" |
| 45282 | He asked,"What language?" |
| 45282 | Is he near me?'' |
| 45282 | Is this their errand indeed?'' |
| 45282 | What criminals could ever be condemned if such proofs were not deemed sufficient? |
| 45282 | What,_ are they come to apprehend the gentlewoman_? |
| 45282 | or how can I have him by the hand, as thou sayest, seeing I feel it not? |
| 45282 | saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?" |
| 45282 | what do you want?" |
| 23347 | ( Is not this true?) |
| 23347 | Am I? |
| 23347 | And do those who clatter about the duty of marriage kiss the girls of their hearts with an eye to the general welfare? |
| 23347 | And do you think she would refuse? |
| 23347 | And does it not stand to reason that high merit must be very exceptional? |
| 23347 | And if it is so? |
| 23347 | And why the detail about red ink? |
| 23347 | Are successful men more industrious, frugal, and intelligent than men who are not successful? |
| 23347 | Are there, then, artificialities which are not"petty,"which are noble, large, and grand? |
| 23347 | Are they possible to that renowned and much- flattered person, the man in the street? |
| 23347 | Are we only to buy the books that we read? |
| 23347 | Are you reasonably sure that it is a good book? |
| 23347 | But am I going to fetter my buying to my reading? |
| 23347 | But do you suppose I am going to read them? |
| 23347 | Can it be that I have already lived? |
| 23347 | Children? |
| 23347 | Do I carry my audience with me? |
| 23347 | Do I exaggerate? |
| 23347 | Do I make my meaning clear? |
| 23347 | Do they, as they grow old, resemble disappointed men? |
| 23347 | Do you ask me where the knife is to be used? |
| 23347 | Do you suppose I am engaged in looking up my favourite passages? |
| 23347 | Do you suppose that I can recall the wisdom that I happen already to have read? |
| 23347 | Do you suppose that the presence of these books, after our long separation, is making me read more than I did? |
| 23347 | Do you think my percentages are wrong, you who have been married a long time and know what the world is? |
| 23347 | Do your marriages of''romance''turn out better than our marriages of prudence, of careful thought, of long foresight? |
| 23347 | Have they struggled for success and been beaten? |
| 23347 | Have you a desire to possess it? |
| 23347 | Have you not noticed it? |
| 23347 | Have you read"X"? |
| 23347 | Have you thought of them? |
| 23347 | How comes it that men without any other talent possess a mysterious and indefinable talent to succeed? |
| 23347 | How could it be otherwise? |
| 23347 | How will he think of it? |
| 23347 | In London alone are there not hundreds of miles of streets crammed with industry, frugality, and prudence? |
| 23347 | In a word, what''s it worth? |
| 23347 | Naturally, in England, he could n''t go up to the Chosen Fair and announce:"I am not precisely in love with you, but will you marry me?" |
| 23347 | Strange, is it not? |
| 23347 | Suppose it does n''t arrive? |
| 23347 | Supposing that_ you_ came into a drawing- room where you were having tea, do you think you would recognize yourself as an individuality? |
| 23347 | Think of your best friends-- are you oblivious of their defects? |
| 23347 | Well, searchers after the real, what would you substitute for it? |
| 23347 | What am I likely to get out of it? |
| 23347 | What are your precautions? |
| 23347 | What do I force my mind to meditate upon? |
| 23347 | What is it to us what Plato thought? |
| 23347 | What is the result? |
| 23347 | What of the rest? |
| 23347 | What precautions are you going to take against failure this time? |
| 23347 | What shall you be saying of yourself at fifty? |
| 23347 | What then? |
| 23347 | What will become of England if this continues? |
| 23347 | What will he do? |
| 23347 | Where is the English system then? |
| 23347 | Which is right? |
| 23347 | Why a necktie? |
| 23347 | Why babble? |
| 23347 | Why do they not? |
| 23347 | Why shave? |
| 23347 | Why should he not try the French system for a change? |
| 23347 | Why wait? |
| 23347 | Why, then, attempt to deceive ourselves"--that remorse for wickedness is a useful and praiseworthy exercise? |
| 23347 | Why? |
| 23347 | Why? |
| 23347 | Will he remark with genuine concern that his mind is sadly out of condition and that he really must do something to get it into order? |
| 23347 | Will he stay out all day, and return in the evening too tired even to read his paper? |
| 23347 | You search for happiness? |
| 23347 | You would be apt to say to yourself, as guests do when disturbed in drawing- rooms by other guests:"Who''s this chap? |
| 41519 | As some writer has said, psychology has no more concern with the solution of the eternal riddle of"What is Mind?" |
| 41519 | Ask your imagination if it will accept a vibrating multiple proportion-- a numerical ratio in a state of oscillation? |
| 41519 | But in the finding of this truth, and in the application of its principles, where are we to begin? |
| 41519 | Follow them up to their origin, and what do you there find? |
| 41519 | How? |
| 41519 | It may be asked:--If we can not help being logicians, why do we need logic books at all? |
| 41519 | The question ever in the mind in Inductive Reasoning is"_ Why?_"The dominant idea in Inductive Reasoning is the Search for Causes. |
| 41519 | V. How? |
| 41519 | V. What things can I most readily associate with it? |
| 41519 | What are its attributes, qualities or characteristics? |
| 41519 | What are its natural results-- what happens because of it? |
| 41519 | What are the great centers of life about which we may build a greater and a greater life? |
| 41519 | What are we to do first? |
| 41519 | What caused it? |
| 41519 | What do I know about it, in the way of general information? |
| 41519 | What do I think of it, on the whole-- what are my general impressions regarding it? |
| 41519 | What does it prove-- what can be deduced from it? |
| 41519 | What have I heard about it, and from whom, and when? |
| 41519 | What history or record has it? |
| 41519 | What is it good for-- how may it be used-- what can I do with it? |
| 41519 | What is it most like? |
| 41519 | What is its future; and its natural or probable end or finish? |
| 41519 | What is thought? |
| 41519 | What then do you expect to find as the source of a series of ether waves? |
| 41519 | What? |
| 41519 | When Newton saw the apple fall, the anticipatory question flashed through his mind,''Why do not the heavenly bodies fall like this apple?'' |
| 41519 | When? |
| 41519 | Whence? |
| 41519 | Where did it come from, or originate? |
| 41519 | Where? |
| 41519 | Whither? |
| 41519 | Why? |
| 41519 | Why? |

| 20522 | --_The Author.__ CREATION OR EVOLUTION? |
| 20522 | A man of genius is to make his wife miserable? |
| 20522 | And with this yet again: How may he use his inheritance-- to what end and under what limitations? |
| 20522 | But how great a variation? |
| 20522 | But it may be asked: Why do succeeding generations improve each on its parents, so that there is a gradual tendency to perfect the instinct? |
| 20522 | But, on the other hand, we may ask: How do we come to infer this or that thought from this or that action of another? |
| 20522 | Do they play much with one another alone? |
| 20522 | Do we find inroads made in Newport society by the ranchman and the dry- goods clerk? |
| 20522 | Does he sleep in the same bed or room with them? |
| 20522 | Does the coachman have an equal chance to get the heiress, or the blacksmith the clergyman''s daughter? |
| 20522 | Does the female pea- fowl consider the male bird, with all his display of colour and movement, a beautiful object? |
| 20522 | For as soon as we ask,"How much mind is necessary to start with?" |
| 20522 | For instance, what use to an animal to be able partly to make the movements of swimming, or to the birds to build an inadequate nest? |
| 20522 | Furthermore, why is it that plays are characteristic of species, different kinds of animals having plays quite peculiar to themselves? |
| 20522 | Generally, then, who is eligible for the social inheritance? |
| 20522 | Given social variations, therefore, differences among men, what becomes of this man or that? |
| 20522 | Has he brothers or sisters? |
| 20522 | How did his father come to marry his mother, and the reverse? |
| 20522 | How does he learn the muscular combinations which supplement or replace the earlier instinctive ways of acting? |
| 20522 | Is this a reason for excluding him from society? |
| 20522 | Now what is the line of treatment that such a child should have? |
| 20522 | Now what shall be done with such a student in his early school years? |
| 20522 | Now, if this be the social heritage, we may go on to ask: Who are to inherit it? |
| 20522 | Should not the colours chosen be equal in purity, intensity, lustre, illumination, etc.? |
| 20522 | The incessant"why?" |
| 20522 | The last question, then, is this: When does the child get the different colour_ Sensations_( not recognitions), and in what order? |
| 20522 | There, is that better, my darling?" |
| 20522 | To this we may again add the further question: How does the one who is born to such a heritage as this come into his inheritance? |
| 20522 | Was there ever a child who did not play"church,"and force the improvised"papa"into the pulpit? |
| 20522 | We exclaim at once: who made the past the measure of the future? |
| 20522 | What can set limit to the possible variations of fruitful intellectual power? |
| 20522 | What could tell us more of what mind is than this record of what mind has done? |
| 20522 | What goes on in this interval between the advent of the incoming nerve process and the discharge of the outgoing nerve process? |
| 20522 | What is meant by Intelligence? |
| 20522 | What possesses a man, that all on a sudden, without consulting a doctor, he takes it into his head to eat nothing but vegetables? |
| 20522 | What, then, is social heredity? |
| 20522 | What, then, shall we say of the genius from this point of view? |
| 20522 | Who is free from social considerations in selecting his wife? |
| 20522 | Who will deny to the Great Purpose a similar resource in producing the universe and in providing for us all? |
| 20522 | Why be content with an impression? |
| 20522 | Why hint of a"certain this and a certain that"when the"certain,"if it mean anything, commonly means the uncertain? |
| 20522 | Why let the personal reaction of the individual''s feeling suffice? |
| 20522 | Would not the rest of the rat tribe be justified in leaving this anomaly behind to starve in the hole where his singular appendage held him fast? |
| 20522 | Yet why guess? |
| 20522 | _ The Origin of Right- handedness._--The question,"Why are we right or left- handed?" |
| 20522 | and who made social approval the measure of truth? |
| 20522 | how many of each, and of what age? |
| 20522 | must be followed by a second-- i.e., What did his doing that mean? |
| 20522 | when his friend in the sport makes a fine feint, and comes up serene with the knowing look, which the human on- looker can not fail to understand? |
| 20034 | Are you mad? |
| 20034 | But the sunbeams do not follow every one, auntie, do they? |
| 20034 | But what am I to do? 20034 But where did he go?" |
| 20034 | Can you give me any information,I asked,"about a lady whose Christian name was Jane?" |
| 20034 | Do you mean the Haunted Tower?--the Tower that is supposed to contain the secret room? |
| 20034 | Do you think, auntie,I asked with a thrill of joy,"do you think it at all likely that I shall see Aunt Alicia again to- night?" |
| 20034 | How can the sunbeams follow one? |
| 20034 | How do you come to know about her? |
| 20034 | I wonder why that is? |
| 20034 | Talking about psychic things, O''Donnell,he said,"do you know there is a haunted house near where we are staying? |
| 20034 | What are they? |
| 20034 | What makes you ask such strange questions, child? |
| 20034 | What-- what in the name of-- what does it all mean? |
| 20034 | Who are you? |
| 20034 | Who was she? |
| 20034 | Who will go first? |
| 20034 | Why, Mary,Margaret exclaimed,"whatever is the matter? |
| 20034 | ''No,''replied Miss D.;''who in the world is he?'' |
| 20034 | *****"Now, Mr. O''Donnell,"Miss Macdonald added,"having heard our experiences, my mother''s and mine, what is your opinion? |
| 20034 | A wild bit of extravagance, eh? |
| 20034 | And if she had imagined the noises, why did she not imagine other things; why, for example, did she not see tables dance, and tea- urns walk? |
| 20034 | And supposing it should turn round and face her, what should she see? |
| 20034 | And yet if it was n''t the ghost of Jean, whose ghost was it? |
| 20034 | But was the so- called"Pearlin''Jean"really the apparition of the murdered French woman? |
| 20034 | But why white? |
| 20034 | CASE VIII THE DRUMMER OF CORTACHY What ancient Scottish or Irish family has not its Family Ghost? |
| 20034 | Come, what do you want?" |
| 20034 | Could I be ill? |
| 20034 | Could this be the home of the genii? |
| 20034 | Did she mean to make love to him herself? |
| 20034 | Do n''t you know it''s haunted?" |
| 20034 | Do you understand?" |
| 20034 | For what were they intended? |
| 20034 | How can one explain it all?" |
| 20034 | How dare you enter this room without my permission?" |
| 20034 | How on earth had she got there? |
| 20034 | If, for instance, the apparition were that of a Sister of Charity, why should it appear incongruously attired in a long trailing gown of lace? |
| 20034 | In the face of such a unanimous denial what could he say? |
| 20034 | In the name of God, why? |
| 20034 | It was a shadow, only a shadow, but of what? |
| 20034 | Now tell me who he was, and why he was permitted to frighten me in this manner?" |
| 20034 | Now, Mr. O''Donnell, have you had enough horrors for one evening, or would you like to hear just one more?" |
| 20034 | The scissors, why were they in her fingers? |
| 20034 | Very well, then, if I tell you what I know and you write about it, will you promise not to allude to the house by its right number? |
| 20034 | Was I going mad? |
| 20034 | Was it another of the mysteries God concealed from little girls? |
| 20034 | Was it she he wanted this time-- she, or-- or whom-- in the name of all that was pitiable? |
| 20034 | Was this garden, which was all white, in any way connected with the sunbeams and heliotrope? |
| 20034 | What did it mean? |
| 20034 | What did it portend? |
| 20034 | What had produced them? |
| 20034 | What has happened?" |
| 20034 | What is the history of the head? |
| 20034 | What was it? |
| 20034 | What was it? |
| 20034 | What was the thing? |
| 20034 | What was this change? |
| 20034 | What''s the matter with ye, beast?" |
| 20034 | What''s yon figure that I see? |
| 20034 | What''s yon figure, Tammas?" |
| 20034 | What-- what in the name of Heaven should I see? |
| 20034 | Whence did it originate? |
| 20034 | Who on earth was this frantic female? |
| 20034 | Who was Jane, and why should her ghost haunt George Street?" |
| 20034 | Who was he? |
| 20034 | Whose was it? |
| 20034 | Why could not she put them down? |
| 20034 | Why did she glance from them to the baby? |
| 20034 | Why did she pick them up and feel the blades so caressingly with her thumb? |
| 20034 | Why, then, had she started? |
| 20034 | Why? |
| 20034 | You do n''t? |
| 20034 | You love the sunlight, do you not?" |
| 20034 | You promise? |
| 20034 | and without any invitation from me, how dare you let him in?" |
| 20034 | he said;"what are you talking about? |
| 20034 | she asked herself, and how on earth had he got there, and what was he doing? |
| 20034 | she exclaimed,"is she still there? |
| 44029 | ''And when I die, John Norton is to have this house and farm whether I will or not?'' |
| 44029 | ''Are you crazy?'' |
| 44029 | ''The farm is n''t mine?'' |
| 44029 | ''There were no indications of this sort when I saw you yesterday?'' |
| 44029 | ''This farm that I''ve run for goin''on forty- three year next spring is n''t mine to do with what I please with it? |
| 44029 | ''What is the matter with you, man? |
| 44029 | ''What on earth have you been doing to yourself?'' |
| 44029 | ''Where do you feel the pain?'' |
| 44029 | A cell, looked at from without, moves only when stimulated; but is this really true? |
| 44029 | And as Thought is based largely upon Belief, can we not see the dynamic force of Faith? |
| 44029 | And what of the patient for whom the direful prognosis was intended? |
| 44029 | Arsenic? |
| 44029 | But is it true of the body? |
| 44029 | Can states of mind cause or cure disease? |
| 44029 | Do I not choose, and either do the thing or not, as determined from within? |
| 44029 | How many cases of hay- fever have a somewhat similar origin in the unconscious mind?... |
| 44029 | If this is true of the body, why not of the cell? |
| 44029 | Is not the wonder- working of the cults now understandable? |
| 44029 | Is there not a real psychological basis for so- called"miracles?" |
| 44029 | May not the stimulation we see be a condition only, and the real cause of the act be within the cell itself?... |
| 44029 | Now is your proposition the real cause of my act, or only a condition? |
| 44029 | Of what did this man die? |
| 44029 | To avert disease, then, we must eradicate fear; but how shall we accomplish it? |
| 44029 | You do n''t seem to have been drinking?'' |
| 26893 | And he said unto them, Why have you saved the women and the children? 26893 How do you know?" |
| 26893 | What next is going to happen? |
| 26893 | When then,said Socrates, in the_ Phædo_,"does the soul light on the truth? |
| 26893 | : the intelligent Will of Man, determined to govern his own house, and responsible for results? |
| 26893 | Again I ask,"Is it not worth while?" |
| 26893 | And is this a"Study in Psychology"? |
| 26893 | And what has this to do with America? |
| 26893 | And what is all this but a lesson in practical psychology, the growth of the soul? |
| 26893 | And who_ constrains_ us but_ ourselves_? |
| 26893 | Can God and Nature be so prodigal, noting even the sparrows fall, and yet disregard the children of men? |
| 26893 | Can it be that there is no great truth back of all these struggles and aspirations of the human soul? |
| 26893 | Can the reader imagine such a degree of_ Self- Control_? |
| 26893 | Can you wonder that the real science of the Human Soul found little recognition, or that it was denied as possible to man? |
| 26893 | Can you wonder why so few"understand Browning"? |
| 26893 | Could many an English judge say the same?" |
| 26893 | Did Jesus of Nazareth differ in kind or in_ Degree_, from the rest of Humanity? |
| 26893 | Did it pay? |
| 26893 | Do not the principles that adhere in atom, molecule and mass, still hold in worlds and solar systems? |
| 26893 | Does it elevate or degrade him? |
| 26893 | Does it pay? |
| 26893 | How do you know anything, except as you see, or experience it? |
| 26893 | If man were built upon some other scheme or plan than the rest of nature, how could he apprehend or adjust himself to Nature? |
| 26893 | If this be true, and it is readily demonstrable, what subject is of equal importance; and what facts and considerations are so transcendent as these? |
| 26893 | Is Tantalus, after all, the creator and Father of Man? |
| 26893 | Is it not plain, therefore, how impossible it is to separate the Individual and the Social status? |
| 26893 | Is it not purely a question of_ fact_, and of scientific demonstration, to be determined by experiment? |
| 26893 | Is it not through personal experience? |
| 26893 | Is it not_ worth while_? |
| 26893 | Is it worth while? |
| 26893 | Is it_ worth while_? |
| 26893 | Is not this precisely what is meant by"The Reign of Law"? |
| 26893 | Is there not something after all in the_ Measure of Values_, and in the inexorable_ Law of Use_? |
| 26893 | It is awareness of an idea, percept, concept, or act awakened, called to attention by another, with the question, how does it strike you? |
| 26893 | It may be well to reflect a moment, and ask ourselves, how it is that we really know anything? |
| 26893 | May not the Individual Intelligence on the physical plane communicate with the denizens of the spiritual plane_ at his own volition, independently_? |
| 26893 | One further consideration remains to be noted at this time, as the question is sure to arise:"How about woman in the Great Work?" |
| 26893 | Put the question,"does it pay?" |
| 26893 | Shall we ever meet them again? |
| 26893 | Start almost any subject, propose almost any scheme, adventure, or investment, and the question is asked,"Will it pay?" |
| 26893 | That there is no possible realization back of these soulful endeavors? |
| 26893 | The Measure of Values, and the Law of Use_ hold everywhere_, in every department of human life; and the question,"Does it pay?" |
| 26893 | The aim and the results along these lines are often good and helpful; then why clothe them in the garb of absurdities? |
| 26893 | The foregoing quotations have been made from a little volume,"India: What Can It Teach Us?" |
| 26893 | The question is continually asked,"Why do the Masters of Wisdom Conceal their Knowledge?" |
| 26893 | The question is no longer,"What think ye of Jesus?" |
| 26893 | What are the_ facts_? |
| 26893 | What do they reveal and signify? |
| 26893 | What is this but the_ methods_ of Natural Science applied to Psychical Science upon the basis of the Unity of Natural Phenomena and Universal Law? |
| 26893 | What will become of us when we die? |
| 26893 | What will the new religion-- the new revelation-- be? |
| 26893 | What would I have my readers do? |
| 26893 | When asked by the average intelligence,"What does it all mean?" |
| 26893 | Where are they? |
| 26893 | Who can tell? |
| 26893 | Will it_ pay_? |
| 26893 | Will the day darken, the Light be quenched? |
| 26893 | With Psychology? |
| 26893 | With the Measure of Values? |
| 26893 | Would not Jesus become, indeed and in truth, a_ Living Example_, in place of a"Blood Offering"? |
| 26893 | _ And why not?_ If man can conceive it, why may he not_ realize_ it? |
| 26893 | _ And why not?_ If man can conceive it, why may he not_ realize_ it? |
| 26893 | _ Does it pay?_ It all depends on_ use_. |
| 26893 | _ Of what use to man_, measured by these scientific standards of value, are Popery and Priestcraft? |
| 26893 | and whence will it come? |
| 26893 | but"What_ know_ ye of your own soul?" |
| 26893 | inspired only by love of disappointment, defeat, and despair, in his children? |
| 26893 | or,"Does the real man ever die at all?" |
| 26893 | what do you think of it? |
| 26893 | what, if anything, do you wish, or propose to do about it? |
| 36595 | And now,she added,"would n''t you like me to put a curse on that woman? |
| 36595 | But how could they get in? |
| 36595 | But there is a dog,said Mrs. Hudson impatiently;"ca n''t you see it standing there looking at us?" |
| 36595 | How do you know that? |
| 36595 | I do n''t see one; where do you see it? |
| 36595 | I inquired then,''What did she say to you when this was over?'' 36595 On one occasion he asked her,''Well, Molly, have you seen a funeral lately?'' |
| 36595 | What didst thou hear? 36595 What dog?" |
| 36595 | What was he like? |
| 36595 | ''What was that?'' |
| 36595 | And what about this man, if he had not happened to find him lying there? |
| 36595 | Art thou frightened?" |
| 36595 | Borrow said:"They( corpse- candles) foreshadow deaths, do n''t they?" |
| 36595 | But that evening John went to the house of''Liza the Witch, and, knocking at the door, cried,"How be''st thou,''Liza?" |
| 36595 | But where was the hare? |
| 36595 | CHAPTER IV OTHER GHOSTS"What beckoning ghost along the moonlight shade, Invites my steps, and points to yonder glade?" |
| 36595 | CONCLUSION CHAPTER I INTRODUCTORY"Strange, is it not? |
| 36595 | Could it have been possible, I wonder, that the fruitless séance was answerable for the creature''s appearance? |
| 36595 | For surely the room, so short a time deserted, is nevertheless peopled-- and by what? |
| 36595 | For what general conclusion can be satisfactory, regarding all these instances of the supernatural? |
| 36595 | How did he get here?" |
| 36595 | How was he who had acted escort to reach his own home across the bridge alone? |
| 36595 | Is n''t that lucky?" |
| 36595 | Mrs. Jones said she was, as I know, not superstitious, but was it not odd? |
| 36595 | Much of the old silver was taken out of its wrappings and displayed, and at length Seaton said,"But where are those queer candlesticks? |
| 36595 | My last inquiry was,''Did you give her anything?'' |
| 36595 | Now the great question was, whose burial could it be? |
| 36595 | Now was this merely a wonderful coincidence? |
| 36595 | Seaton said to the butler:"You are certain you have not had these candlesticks out lately?" |
| 36595 | Such a"superstition"is possibly supposed to be extinct; yet this phenomenon has been witnessed by a friend of mine( need I say of Celtic race?) |
| 36595 | The ostler looked puzzled and said:"Yes, sir; but what man do you mean?" |
| 36595 | The other replied,"Hast thou got the cattle?" |
| 36595 | The question-- and a puzzling one-- is, why should these things occur at all? |
| 36595 | Then the point was, who was going to die? |
| 36595 | They were going along as fast as they could, when the woman asked the man,"Dost thou see a light, Tom?" |
| 36595 | Was it a spirit or the Toili?" |
| 36595 | When Captain Seaton heard the story he looked very grave and asked,"At which door in the corridor did the lady stop?" |
| 36595 | Wherein lies the decided element of creepiness contained in my next story? |
| 36595 | Whimpers and yelps of disappointment from the hounds proclaimed that their prey had escaped, but the question was, how? |
| 36595 | Why have n''t I heard about her before?" |
| 36595 | asked the princess,"have you anointed your eyes with the ointment?" |

| 36730 | He was planning a congratulatory letter to a friend, when the words"What, write to a dead man? |
| 36730 | I answered, looking and seeing nothing,''Who are you?'' |
| 36730 | I pointed to him and called out:''Who is that, please?'' |
| 36730 | Is it a spirit showing itself partially dissociated from the living organism; evincing independence, a certain intelligence and a certain permanence? |
| 36730 | Is it two children on a raft at sea?" |
| 36730 | Is not hypnotism a miracle? |
| 36730 | Is not telepathy a miracle? |
| 36730 | Is not the divining rod a miracle? |
| 36730 | May there not be an unknown, or at least an unrecognised, extension of human muscular faculty? |
| 36730 | Mr Smith asked:"What are they doing? |
| 36730 | My niece, who did not see the figure, in the course of a minute or two exclaimed:''Uncle A., what is the matter with you? |
| 36730 | Now, how do you account for it?" |
| 36730 | On one occasion when the key was not given up the doctor called out:"Wo n''t you send us down the key before we go?" |
| 36730 | Or is there yet an alternative explanation? |
| 36730 | Or is this a mere image of the agent, conceived in his own brain and projected telepathically to the brain of the percipient? |
| 36730 | Or, on the other hand, may not such faculty be regarded not as vestigial, but as rudimentary? |
| 36730 | Such candour disarms us: can there be any ground for the theory that here was a case of self- deception on a large scale? |
| 36730 | Suppose Faraday and Huxley, Spencer and Tyndall, were alive to- day, would they see reason to alter their opinions? |
| 36730 | The question arises, Does it explain all so- called Spiritualistic phenomena? |
| 36730 | To hypnotism must the miracle of telepathy now be added? |
| 36730 | What can that be up in the air? |
| 36730 | What did she die of?'' |
| 36730 | What is the net result of the evidence for all classes of supernormal phenomena? |
| 36730 | What new evidence exists which would make the mid- Victorian scientific men reconsider their position? |
| 36730 | What then is the explanation? |
| 36730 | What then is the secret of the dowser''s often remarkable success? |
| 36730 | What, then, is that operating intelligence? |
| 36730 | Where are my own experiences? |
| 36730 | Where the relation of my own personal contact with hypnotists, telepathists, mediums, mysteries? |
| 36730 | Why may not the impulse pass between men and the lower animals, or between the lower animals themselves? |
| 36730 | Would Sir William Ramsay or Sir James Crichton- Browne throw these manifestations into the limbo of humbug and charlatanism? |
| 36730 | Would not that have been of interest? |
| 36730 | Yet, is it not possible that we have laid hands upon a credible explanation of the eternal mystery of"ghosts"? |
| 36730 | write to a dead man?" |
| 7224 | If then,you may ask,"fate is so pitiless and so powerful, what can be done with it and where does free- will enter into the matter?" |
| 7224 | FATE OR FREE- WILL? |
| 7224 | How can this be done? |
| 7224 | On the other hand, he has no incentive to hoard or to grab wealth, for of what use are riches to one whose supply is for ever assured? |
| 7224 | PREFACE CHAPTER I.--Infinite Life and Power CHAPTER II.--The Overcoming of Life''s Difficulties CHAPTER III.--Fate or Free- Will? |
| 7224 | Shall we be victorious or shall we be submerged? |
| 7224 | Shall we overcome life''s difficulties or shall we give in to them? |
| 7224 | The greatest Teacher of all once said:"For what shall it profit man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" |
| 7224 | The question is, can this be done? |
| 7224 | Those who have studied the Occult sciences may say"what about planetary influences?" |
| 7224 | What has all this got to do with practical, everyday life, it may be asked? |
| 7224 | Why should they have any such desire? |
| 6911 | Has not her day, too, been one of care, and responsibility, and watchfulness? |
| 6911 | He is ever watchful of himself in trifles; his standard is not"What will the world say?" |
| 6911 | How is it that the loving father of one family is taken by death, while the worthless incumbrance of another is spared? |
| 6911 | Is man, then, the weaker sex that he must be pampered and treated as tenderly as a boil trying to keep from contact with the world? |
| 6911 | Should we not be at least as careful of ourselves? |
| 6911 | Why does he abrogate his right to dine and go to the end of the line with the mere feeders? |
| 6911 | Why is there so much unnecessary pain, sorrowing and suffering in the world-- why, indeed, should there be any?" |
| 6911 | Why should a woman have to look up with timid glance at the face of her husband, to"size up his mood"? |
| 6911 | Why this continual swinging of the censer of devotion to the man of business? |
| 6911 | but"Is it worthy of me?" |
| 8414 | Again, the depth of a life must be equal, and how do we lack in this? |
| 8414 | How can we comfort them and point them to the hope of a new endeavor? |
| 8414 | How often shall we treat an absent patient? |
| 8414 | Jesus again told this when he said to the man who asked him"What shall I do that I may have eternal life?" |
| 8414 | Like the Christians of old we do not understand higher relationships, and at last, worn out with disappointment we cry,"Where are the promises?" |
| 8414 | What makes the difference? |
| 36512 | _ Mrs. Veal had been, subject to fits, and she asks if Mrs. Bargrave does not think she ismightily impaired by her fits?" |
| 36512 | And I would also take the liberty to suggest that he should ask the ghost these questions:--"Who''s your tailor?" |
| 36512 | And also, if a_ goose_ would be frightened if it saw a ghost? |
| 36512 | And further-- If the Government were applied to, would they"lend the loan"of a proper and fitting building to exhibit the various works in? |
| 36512 | And out of whose"atmosphere,"or"life sphere"had the spirit made this hand? |
| 36512 | And then if the ghost of a chimney- sweep were to appear-- and why not the spirit of a sweep as well as anybody else? |
| 36512 | And then was this spirit_ dressed_ in his best? |
| 36512 | Are, or can these things be_ spiritual_? |
| 36512 | Can the believers in ghosts tell us that? |
| 36512 | Can this be a law or regulation amongst the ghosts? |
| 36512 | For instance, when Marcellus says to Horatio,"Is it not like the king?" |
| 36512 | Had they to return to purgatory by themselves-- had the heavy white walking- stick to walk off without its owner? |
| 36512 | If not, where did they go to? |
| 36512 | If the cloth is made out of stuff"_ permeated by our wills_"-- And further, if these ghosts are honest, and pay their tailors''bills? |
| 36512 | Mr. Owen here asks if the mastiff was cataleptic also? |
| 36512 | Now it will be as well here to inquire what good has ever resulted from this belief in what is commonly understood to be a ghost? |
| 36512 | Now one naturally asks here, why did not this old ghost go and point the place out to his son himself? |
| 36512 | One day at dinner he stood up, and said to those present,"Do n''t you see I''m going?" |
| 36512 | Query, If a horse is not frightened at a ghost, why should dogs be frightened at the sight of them? |
| 36512 | Query, What did the ghost come for, and was the second husband at all jealous of his coming? |
| 36512 | Query: How did Mr. H. know that this hand_ was so cold_? |
| 36512 | Suppose it was a_ spirit hand_, the hand of a soul that once did live on earth, could it be the_ spirit_ of a_ glove_? |
| 36512 | Then comes my_ clothes test_ again, where did the_ hand_ get the_ glove_? |
| 36512 | There now, there''s a secret for you-- what do you think of that? |
| 36512 | Well, some people will say that some little_ comfort_ was needed after so much_ dis_comfort and suffering-- but_ why_, all this suffering? |
| 36512 | Yes, why should a_ dog_, especially if he is a_ spirited_ dog, do so? |
| 36512 | [ 6] I should like to ask a question here-- Is Home by spirits lifted, or by"atmosphere?" |
| 36512 | and had it put the glove on because it felt itself so cold? |
| 36512 | and how is it that the same spirit can appear in_ several places_ at_ the same instant_? |
| 36512 | and if CLOTHED, of what those CLOTHES WERE MADE? |
| 36512 | and what A PAIR OF TOP- BOOTS are made of? |
| 36512 | and whether these materials are_ spiritualized_ by any process, or whether THE CLOTHES WE WEAR ON OUR BODIES BECOME A PART AND PARCEL OF OUR SOULS? |
| 36512 | and"Who''s your hatter?" |
| 36512 | and, further, whether the mutilation of the_ body_ can in any way affect the_ spirit_--the_ soul_? |
| 36512 | in turning their lights in the direction from which the sounds came, and advancing carefully, they discovered-- what do you think? |
| 36512 | oh dear!-- Are made in any kind of mould, Or how they trick''em out of our"life sphere?" |
| 46677 | ( 2) What combinations do these elements undergo and what laws govern these combinations? |
| 46677 | And how is it that just three such pairs of contrasts exist, which we shall call for the sake of shortness the three dimensions of feeling? |
| 46677 | Are there, we naturally ask at once, psychological principles of similar universal validity? |
| 46677 | Does it always return in the same quality? |
| 46677 | For if we ask further, what is this consciousness which psychology investigates? |
| 46677 | How are we to explain this feeling? |
| 46677 | Is each of these forms perfectly uniform? |
| 46677 | Now, how are these combinations constituted, and what laws are they subject to? |
| 46677 | Or in other words, are the only psychical elements such as we project outwards? |
| 46677 | Or who has not had experiences such as the following? |
| 46677 | The next question that immediately presents itself is: Of what kind is the specific content that appears to us in these forms? |
| 46677 | The problem consists in answering the question that immediately arises, How big is this narrower scope of attention? |
| 46677 | The question immediately arises: Do these objective elements and complexes form the only content of consciousness? |
| 46677 | The whole task of psychology can therefore be summed up in these two problems:( 1) What are the elements of consciousness? |
| 46677 | What do these processes, which we so often meet, although not always in such regular change as in a rhythmical row of beats, consist of? |
| 46677 | Whence does it come, and how can we explain its transition into the assimilation? |
| 46677 | Wherein do these two word- combinations differ from each other? |
| 46677 | Why then should the standpoint of psychology be in absolute contradiction to the stand- points of its most nearly related sciences? |
| 46677 | pleasure and displeasure,& c.? |
| 4611 | But supposing it can not find any? |
| 4611 | But that must happen very often? |
| 4611 | Did you ever see such a brute as P-- looked? |
| 4611 | How did you guess I was thinking of that? |
| 4611 | In time for what? |
| 4611 | What do you have for luncheon? |
| 4611 | What is the matter? |
| 4611 | What sort of apprehensions? |
| 4611 | ''But, Mother, what is it like?'' |
| 4611 | Are we to hold ourselves in, to check the impulses of affection, to use self- restraint, not multiply intimacies, not extend sympathies? |
| 4611 | But if one is not capable of going to such lengths, if indeed one has nothing that one can resign, how is it possible to practise simplicity of life? |
| 4611 | But of what? |
| 4611 | Can you understand anything of this? |
| 4611 | Do you know where you are? |
| 4611 | How shall I keep well?'' |
| 4611 | It is the instinct which, in spite of all knowledge and experience, says suddenly, in a moment like that,"Well, what then?" |
| 4611 | Ought one to feel that this kind of jealous absorption in a single individual affection is a mistake? |
| 4611 | Then said Joseph,''Mother, what is it?'' |
| 4611 | Was ever the last fear put into such simple and poignant words as in the above letter? |
| 4611 | Well then, what do I wish about all that? |
| 4611 | What is there that is wrong with all this? |
| 4611 | What then are we to believe about the punishment of our sins? |
| 4611 | What then is our practical way of escape from the dominion of these shadows? |
| 4611 | What was wrong with me? |
| 4611 | Who can say of what old inheritance of fear that horror of the great ape- like countenance was the sign? |
| 4611 | Why did I so behave? |
| 4611 | there is no one can harm you; of what are you apprehensive? |
| 47506 | Are there real fairies to be met with there? |
| 47506 | Did you see them come? |
| 47506 | Do you think shadows, etc., can explain it? 47506 Now, what_ are_ the fairies? |
| 47506 | What can we make of it all? 47506 And the girl''s hand? 47506 And who were you speaking to just now in the yard?'' 47506 Apropos, would a faker, clever enough to produce such a photograph, commit the elementary blunder of not posing his subject? |
| 47506 | But if pipes, why not everything else? |
| 47506 | But supposing that they actually do exist, what_ are_ these creatures? |
| 47506 | But why does he believe it? |
| 47506 | By kind permission I reproduce the article: DO FAIRIES EXIST? |
| 47506 | Can these be thought- forms? |
| 47506 | Does it not suggest a complete range of utensils and instruments for their own life? |
| 47506 | How can you be sure that yours are not so also?" |
| 47506 | I glanced at Turvey to see if he saw anything, and whispered,''Do you see them?'' |
| 47506 | If horses, why not dogs? |
| 47506 | It told of a curious sequence of events in Yorkshire, and ran as follows:"Are there real fairies in the land to- day? |
| 47506 | One may well ask what connection has this fairy- lore with the general scheme of psychic philosophy? |
| 47506 | What are they? |
| 47506 | What do you think of this? |
| 47506 | What have you seen? |
| 47506 | What is the mirage of the desert? |
| 47506 | When Columbus knelt in prayer upon the edge of America, what prophetic eye saw all that a new continent might do to affect the destinies of the world? |
| 47506 | Wherever did it come from?" |
| 47506 | Which is the harder of belief, the faking of a photograph or the objective existence of winged beings eighteen inches high? |
| 47506 | Will you please excuse my mentioning a few domestic details connected with the story? |
| 47506 | Would it be too long to wait until then, when we could explain what we know about it? |
| 47506 | what is this?'' |
| 31511 | Hath shee done it? |
| 31511 | Old Alice[ Norrington?] |
| 31511 | Was this woman fitting to live?... 31511 You have foure Imps, have you not? |
| 31511 | ''Did you not send such an Impe to kill my child''? |
| 31511 | ''Yes''....''Are not their names so and so''? |

| 31511 | And the keeper of the wardrobe, what was the part that he played? |
| 31511 | And was I not there enjoyned by a necessity to the discoverie of this Brood?" |
| 31511 | And why? |
| 31511 | And, supposing these narratives were true, would they prove anything? |
| 31511 | But is it not possible to believe that the social grouping of these men had an influence? |
| 31511 | But what were the rector of Stanford Rivers and the keeper of the great wardrobe doing there? |
| 31511 | But why go into details? |
| 31511 | But why should we trace out the confessions, charges, and counter- charges that followed? |
| 31511 | Can we doubt that their decisions were influenced by that fact? |
| 31511 | Did he write soon after the events, when they were fresh in his memory? |
| 31511 | Did that detection of fraud never occur to the judges, or had they never heard of the famous boy at Bilston? |
| 31511 | Did the pamphleteer himself hear and see what he recorded, or was his account at second hand? |
| 31511 | Did the parties that were said to have been killed by witchcraft really die at the times specified? |
| 31511 | Does his narrative seem to be that of a painstaking, careful man or otherwise? |
| 31511 | Given a personal Devil who is constantly intriguing against the kingdom of God( and who would then have dared to deny such a premise? |
| 31511 | Had Doctor Cole been appointed in recognition of the claims of the church? |
| 31511 | Had her sister perhaps suggested that the justice was offering mercy to those who confessed? |
| 31511 | How are we to account for these phenomena? |
| 31511 | How did it happen that just at this particular time so drastic a measure was passed and put into operation? |
| 31511 | How was it known that she went half a mile? |
| 31511 | How, then, were real cases of bewitchment to be recognized? |
| 31511 | I? |
| 31511 | I? |
| 31511 | If this were true, what would become of all those bulwarks of religion furnished by the wonders of witchcraft? |
| 31511 | Is it not likely that there were in England itself certain peculiar conditions, certain special circumstances, that served to forward the attack? |
| 31511 | Is this the Joan Baker of Exeter mentioned a few lines above? |
| 31511 | Katherine Earle struck a Mr. Frank between the shoulders and said,"You are a pretty gentleman; will you kisse me?" |
| 31511 | Mrs. Crosse had once kept a girls''school-- could it be that there was some connection between teaching and witchcraft? |
| 31511 | Now, the problem that arose at once was this: How can the souls of witches leave their bodies? |
| 31511 | Or did the assize courts, which resumed their proceedings in the summer of 1646, frown upon him? |
| 31511 | Or was he meeting with increased opposition among the people? |
| 31511 | Shall we, they asked, discredit all human testimony? |
| 31511 | That, of course, he was not; and his leaning towards superstition on these points makes one ask, What did he really believe about witchcraft? |
| 31511 | The Tryal, Examinations, and Confession... before the Lord Chief Baron Wild.... By James[ Edmond?] |
| 31511 | The attorney then asked,"When dyd thye Cat suck of thy bloud?" |
| 31511 | The practical question is, not how would the law operate, but how did it operate? |
| 31511 | The question naturally arises, What was the occasion of this law? |
| 31511 | Then arose the problem: How does this process differ from death? |
| 31511 | This brings us back to the point: What had the conjurers to do with witchcraft? |
| 31511 | Was it because the men of the law possessed more of the matter- of- factness supposed to be a heritage of every Englishman? |
| 31511 | Was it because their special training gave them a saner outlook? |
| 31511 | Was it not their province to overcome the machinations of the black witches, that is, witches who wrought evil rather than good? |
| 31511 | Was the attorney- general acting as presiding officer, or was he conducting the prosecution? |
| 31511 | Was there a falling off in interest? |
| 31511 | Was this the Christiana Weekes of Cleves Pepper, Wilts, who in 1651 and 1654 was again and again accused of telling where lost goods were? |
| 31511 | Well neighbour, sayth one, do ye not suspect some naughty dealing: did yee never anger mother W? |
| 31511 | Were they harmless beings with malevolent minds? |
| 31511 | Were they not good witches? |
| 31511 | What is witchcraft? |
| 31511 | What was the nature of the delusion seemingly shared by eight people? |
| 31511 | What was to be done with it? |
| 31511 | What was to be done with the witches? |
| 31511 | What were these witches, then? |
| 31511 | When all the fraud and false testimony and self- deception were excluded, what about the remaining cases of witchcraft? |
| 31511 | Who knew that it was seven minutes? |
| 31511 | Why did they leave out the very essential of the witch- monger''s lore? |
| 31511 | Why did they not speak at all of the compacts between the Devil and witches? |
| 31511 | Would he have stood by this when pushed into a corner? |
| 31511 | [ 17] Can we wonder that a student at such pains to discover the fact as to a wrong done should have used barbed words in the portrayal of injustice? |
| 31511 | [ 22]_ Ibid._, 5; John Darrel,_ An Apologie, or defence of the possession of William Sommers..._( 1599? |
| 31511 | [ 50] What, then, were they? |
| 36908 | '', I can only answer by asking,''Where is this"public opinion"and what does it look like?'' |
| 36908 | ''And, David,( is not that your Christian name?) |
| 36908 | ''Well, of course, if you deceive the spirits like that how can you expect the truth in return?'' |
| 36908 | ''What dug- out, sir?'' |
| 36908 | ( Feda(_ sotto voce_): Did he hop, Raymond?) |
| 36908 | ( N. M. L. asks):''Play what?'' |
| 36908 | ( No bite)--Georgina? |
| 36908 | A delightful example of Sir Oliver''s anxiety to help the medium occurs on page 256:-- O. J. L.:''Do you remember a bird in our garden?'' |
| 36908 | And any voice? |
| 36908 | At a London séance on December 20th, 1915, with the same medium there occurs the following:--( Question):''What used he to sing?'' |
| 36908 | At this she asked,''Which one?'' |
| 36908 | At this stage he was told,''You felt like that in France, what was it?'' |
| 36908 | But when I showed this spirit photograph to a friend, with a query as to sex, she answered,''But it_ is_ a woman, is n''t it? |
| 36908 | Can we voluntarily forget? |
| 36908 | Did you even know you were shifting it? |
| 36908 | Did you think,''My leg is beginning to feel tired, I''ll shift it?'' |
| 36908 | Do you see Papa?" |
| 36908 | Friends had told me of his gifts and had met my incredulity with''How do you explain this?'' |
| 36908 | He is which had reached England? |
| 36908 | Here are the important ones:-- O. J. L.:''Do you recollect the photograph at all?'' |
| 36908 | How did the word come to be selected? |
| 36908 | How did this joint error of observation arise? |
| 36908 | I can not answer either except by putting a new one, which is,''Do we ever forget?'' |
| 36908 | I mean was he standing up?'' |
| 36908 | I wonder how Mr. Carrington explains the failure of previous observers to detect the trickery? |
| 36908 | If by that is meant,''Can we voluntarily lose the power of voluntary recall?'' |
| 36908 | If one asks,''Where is this unconscious and what does it look like? |
| 36908 | If we specify the factors concerned in memory and say that it depends upon impression, retention, and recall, then what do we mean by''forgetting''? |
| 36908 | In the early stage of the disease some one examines the arm, pricks it, and asks,''Do you feel that?'' |
| 36908 | In the one place the old countryman said,"How can he get water there? |
| 36908 | Instead of this the procedure was:''I hear a name, is it George? |
| 36908 | Later on his chief asks him,''How did you spot this case?'' |
| 36908 | Next a yacht appears out of the spirit world, and O. J. L. asks:''What about the yacht with sails, did it run on the water?'' |
| 36908 | Not yet? |
| 36908 | O. J. L.''Did it go along?'' |
| 36908 | O. J. L.:''Did he have a stick?'' |
| 36908 | O. J. L.:''Does he remember how he looked in the photograph?'' |
| 36908 | O. J. L.:''Was it out of doors?'' |
| 36908 | She was a stranger to the photographer, so how could he produce the likeness even if he substituted his own plates? |
| 36908 | Surely an out- of- door family like this includes at least one fisherman; why not think out who he is and score another bull''s- eye to the medium? |
| 36908 | The first question was,''Who is Brown?'' |
| 36908 | The question is taken by the patient to mean that the doctor expects that the prick will not be felt-- or why should he ask? |
| 36908 | The second question may be compared with''Did you feel that?'' |
| 36908 | Then begins his conflict; like the patient who successfully feigns symptoms, he finds withdrawal difficult:--''You''d prove firmer in his place? |
| 36908 | Then, the medium having discovered that O. J. L.''s family had a tent by the water, O. J. L. asks:''Is it all one chamber in the tent?'' |
| 36908 | What are two failures against three and a half years''manifestations that''had grown more and more numerous and bewildering as time went on''? |
| 36908 | What can be more authoritative and confident than the manner of a man who believes what he says and knows that his hearers are willing to believe? |
| 36908 | What could be more convincing? |
| 36908 | What does it effect? |
| 36908 | What has been happening all this time in the mind of the patient? |
| 36908 | When Sir Oliver asks concerning a yacht,''Did it run on the water?'' |
| 36908 | Whence does he obtain his evidence that the medium had heard nothing of the incident? |
| 36908 | While a light whisked"..."Shaped somewhat like a star? |
| 36908 | Who can say that, in the days when Home- Rulers and anti- Home- Rulers abounded, the average voter was swayed by a reasoned knowledge of the subject? |
| 36908 | You mean yes, do n''t you?'' |
| 36908 | [ Illustration] How can we explain this belief on the one hand and the trickery on the other? |
| 38590 | Am I, then, in danger from them? |
| 38590 | Am I, too, a Sensitive? |
| 38590 | And how,I asked,"may we discern the Astrals from the higher spirits?" |
| 38590 | And if not Five? |
| 38590 | And why so,she asked,"since, if you have them, they are for the learning of others likewise? |
| 38590 | But even this may be hard to find, and if you should not meet with Three, what then will you do? |
| 38590 | But if you find not Seven? |
| 38590 | Concerning memory; why should there any more be a difficulty in respect of it? 38590 Do they, then,"I asked,"come from within the man?" |
| 38590 | Do you, then,I asked,"desire the whole world to abandon the use of fire in preparing food and drink?" |
| 38590 | How can you have the answer before I have written it? |
| 38590 | Humanity has always and everywhere asked itself these three supreme questions: Whence come we? 38590 Why will you have Adam to be spirit, and Eve matter, since the mystic books deal only with spiritual entities? |
| 38590 | ''If thou understood not earthly things, how shall I make thee understand heavenly things?'' |
| 38590 | ''Why callest thou me? |
| 38590 | --Instantaneous transfer of inspiration--"Woman, what have I to do with thee?" |
| 38590 | And I said,''Lord, if the darkness in one of these stars be caused by the darkness in its fellow, which of them was first darkened?'' |
| 38590 | And how shall it remain except it be purely spiritual; since, when matter ceases, it would then be no longer comprehensible?" |
| 38590 | But he who sat next the last speaker answered,"Truth also is partial; for where is he among us who shall be able to see as God sees?" |
| 38590 | Can such an one, think you, be vain- glorious or self- exalted, and lifted up? |
| 38590 | For how shall it respond to that which is above all, if it respond not to that which is nearest?'' |
| 38590 | Had not even Jesus Himself been"crucified through weakness"? |
| 38590 | How shall we understand this word''perfection''?" |
| 38590 | I say not, let it suffice; it is better to know all things, for if you know not all, how can you judge all? |
| 38590 | Is it not said that the immaculate woman brings forth without a pang? |
| 38590 | Is there anything strong? |
| 38590 | Is there anything sublime? |
| 38590 | Is there anything wise? |
| 38590 | It is like an emerald? |
| 38590 | It was by will that Thou createdst, by will alone, not by love, was it not?--was it not? |
| 38590 | It was true that they had both prophets and prophetesses, but did they work like us in supplement and complement of each other? |
| 38590 | Might it not be, then, that it was my own spirit who knew them and gave them to her, finding her more sensitive to impression than myself? |
| 38590 | O my God, my God, why didst Thou create? |
| 38590 | O wretched man; who shall deliver you from this body of Death? |
| 38590 | Shall I let him?" |
| 38590 | Then he saw the angel, and said to him,"Brother, what doest thou here? |
| 38590 | Then, the man being come up to us, Jesus took him by the hand and said,"What readest thou?" |
| 38590 | They present a body of doctrine at once complete, homogeneous, logical and inexpugnable, in which the three supreme questions, Whence come we? |
| 38590 | To her enquiry,"Can I never overcome this evil prognostic?" |
| 38590 | To which she replied, smiling, that she had known it for some time, but which of her names did I mean? |
| 38590 | Were the prophets, then, shedders of blood? |
| 38590 | What are we? |
| 38590 | What are we? |
| 38590 | What can be the meaning of the general move among these self- appointed censors of morals? |
| 38590 | What is it? |
| 38590 | What, then, I asked myself, was the foremost moral need for the instruments of such a work? |
| 38590 | What, then, is idolatry, and what are false gods? |
| 38590 | Where is he among us who could attain to such a state? |
| 38590 | Wherefore, indeed, said our Lord to our Lady:--"Woman, what is between me and thee? |
| 38590 | Wherefore, then, saith the Lord that the budding of the Fig- Tree shall foretell the end? |
| 38590 | Whither go we? |
| 38590 | Whither go we? |
| 38590 | Who is he who can part with his goods without regret? |
| 38590 | Who is he who is never consumed by the desires of the flesh? |
| 38590 | Who or what, then, is this moon? |
| 38590 | Who shall attain to this perfection? |
| 38590 | Why comest Thou not to lead the perfect life, and to save the world as woman? |
| 38590 | Why is this? |
| 38590 | Will Cain and Caiaphas still have the dominion, and ecclesiasticism be as ready to crucify the Christ on His second coming as it was on His first? |
| 38590 | Will you not rather communicate these saving truths to thirsty souls?" |
| 38590 | Will you therefore be regenerate in the without, as well as in the within? |
| 38590 | Wo n''t you wait for me?" |
| 38590 | a sapphire? |
| 38590 | and what is its nature? |
| 38590 | how am I to send the answer? |
| 38590 | why didst Thou create this stupendous existence? |
| 45362 | And how did you get in? |
| 45362 | Are you? |
| 45362 | D''ye say so? 45362 Had he any clothes on? |
| 45362 | Pretty well, thank ye,says he,"but pray, how do you know my name?" |
| 45362 | What''s that? |
| 45362 | Wo n''t ye? 45362 ''What ails thee, sepulchre? 45362 --Charles, what would thou do with me?'' 45362 A voice was then heard in the gloom asking in a strange intonation,What is wanted?" |
| 45362 | An amusing anecdote illustrative of this belief was related by the daughter of''the celebrated Mrs. S.''[ Siddons?] |
| 45362 | And I replied,''Why?'' |
| 45362 | And I said,''Father, shall I pray for you?'' |
| 45362 | Doth the earth press, or the black stone weigh on thee heavily?'' |
| 45362 | Elizabeth of Hungary, being on the point of expiring, said to those around him,"Do you see those doves more white than snow?" |
| 45362 | He also asks,"Art thou satisfied?" |
| 45362 | Mr. and Mrs. S---- coming in suddenly one day, heard her cry out,''Are you there again? |
| 45362 | Says the ghost,"Well, Tommy, how are ye?" |
| 45362 | The last point the old man quoted as at once settling the question,''How could I be mistaken? |
| 45362 | The late Charles Kingsley, in his''Yeast,''asks,''Who are the knockers?'' |
| 45362 | Then I said,''Where are all our fathers who did like to him?'' |
| 45362 | What sound is that comes from afar? |
| 45362 | Whence comes it? |
| 45362 | Who comes here? |
| 45362 | Who knoweth whether God will permit the persons, who have thus confederated, to appear in the world again after their death? |
| 45362 | Why thus so deeply groan and sigh? |
| 45362 | and if so, what were they like?" |
| 45362 | are ye sleeping, Margaret?'' |
| 45362 | he says,''Or are ye waking presentlie? |
| 45362 | what is that?" |
| 45362 | who comes here?'' |
| 41892 | Surely this takes the matter away from Mental Action, does n''t it? |
| 41892 | What,you may cry,"Mind and Mentation in the mineral and chemical world-- surely not?" |
| 41892 | Why,some of us may cry,"how can we go back of the Atom, or Electron?" |
| 41892 | _ What_ Force and Energy? |
| 41892 | And as Thought is produced by Mind causing vibrations in the Psychoplasm, why is not the Astral Colors reasonable? |
| 41892 | And does it not explain why Gravitation is not affected in its"passage"by intervening bodies? |
| 41892 | And does not seem that this theory also explains why no medium is required for the"travel"of Gravitation? |
| 41892 | And in thus parting company, reader, let us murmur the words of the German poet, who has sung:"Dost thou ask for rest? |
| 41892 | And should not the medium between Mind and Mind be looked for in the Mental Region? |
| 41892 | And, have n''t we seen that both Electricity and Magnetism were Mental Actions also? |
| 41892 | But what about Mentation and Life in the plant life? |
| 41892 | Do these things mean anything to the"Man of the Street?" |
| 41892 | Do you desire to come in with us? |
| 41892 | Do you realize what this means? |
| 41892 | Do you want to get the cream of Success-- thought? |
| 41892 | Do you want to join our circle of thousands of Success readers? |
| 41892 | Does it not appear that they exhibit something very like both? |
| 41892 | Does it take a wild flight of the imagination to see that this Something, that is not Matter, and nor Force,_ must be a manifestation of Mind_? |
| 41892 | Does not the process of crystallization look like rudimentary purposive action? |
| 41892 | Does not this seem reasonable? |
| 41892 | He says:"Is it not a patent fact, obvious to all but the wilfully blind that_ matter does think_? |
| 41892 | How can Mind conduct Radiant Energy? |
| 41892 | How do the Atoms attract each other and move together? |
| 41892 | If so, wherefore? |
| 41892 | Is it a worthy exchange? |
| 41892 | Is it not more reasonable to think of it as a form of vital- action-- life- action? |
| 41892 | Is it too daring a conception to hazard the thought that perhaps the Universe itself is_ the result of the Dynamic Thought of The Infinite_? |
| 41892 | Is not this strong enough? |
| 41892 | Nothing"dead"about this, is there? |
| 41892 | Now is it reasonable to suppose that this wonderful"power"is a mere blind- force? |
| 41892 | Now, do we find it there? |
| 41892 | Passing_ how_? |
| 41892 | Perhaps it would be as well to begin by asking ourselves the question:"What is Substance?" |
| 41892 | Should not the explanation for Mental Effects be sought in a Mental Cause? |
| 41892 | The movement is ever forward, and upward-- what matter the banner under which the armies move? |
| 41892 | There is an evidence of Force and Energy here that is not Heat, Light or Electricity-- what is it? |
| 41892 | There is no_ material_ connection between them( and Electricity and Magnetism will not answer), so what is to be done? |
| 41892 | Well, that looks like a degree of Mentation, does n''t it? |
| 41892 | Were these things merely minerals or chemical- substances, or were they low forms of organic life? |
| 41892 | What can we offer him as an illustration? |
| 41892 | What is"Inherent?" |
| 41892 | When a rose throws off its perfume, it emanates tiny particles of itself-- can you measure or weigh the molecules composing that odor? |
| 41892 | When you handle a coin, an infinitesimal portion of it is worn off-- can you figure the size of the molecules composing that part? |
| 41892 | _ Have n''t we?_ Then how about two pieces of magnetised steel, or two electrified substances? |
| 41892 | _ Have n''t we?_ Then how about two pieces of magnetised steel, or two electrified substances? |
| 41892 | _ What is being produced?_ The imagination can not conceive of what this state of Substance, now being reached, is like. |
| 41892 | _ What is the Force used?_ Science admits the existence of this Force, and calls it"Nervous Energy,"or"Nerve Force." |
| 41892 | _ Why, different?_ Is n''t_ the bond intangible_? |
| 41892 | _ Why, different?_ Is n''t_ the bond intangible_? |

| 12674 | Are the sounds in Haunted Houses real or hallucinatory? |
| 12674 | Being asked why she had always withdrawn before, she said she had seen''like a boyn( halo?) |
| 12674 | But this evidence is in itself a fact to be considered--''Why do these gentlemen tell this tale?'' |
| 12674 | But we still ask:''_ Do_ objects move untouched? |
| 12674 | But who ever swore that he_ saw_ witches so transported? |
| 12674 | But why is it always the same old story? |
| 12674 | But why not, as we know nothing about our relations with the invisible world? |
| 12674 | But, when they expect nothing, and are disappointed by having to witness prodigies, the same old prodigies, what is the explanation? |
| 12674 | By what sign can we be sure that the manifesting agency present is that of a god, an angel, an archon, or a soul? |
| 12674 | Can''high scientific attainments''leave their possessor with such humble powers of observation? |
| 12674 | Do impostors and credulous persons deliberately''get up''the subject in rare old books? |
| 12674 | Do the expenses of exorcism fall on landlord or tenant? |
| 12674 | Does Mr. Sully believe that the portrait was an original portrait of a real person? |
| 12674 | Finally, the author has often been asked:''But what do you believe yourself?'' |

| 12674 | Have all other Mediums secret wires? |
| 12674 | Have you ever had any hallucination? |
| 12674 | He asks, among other things: How can gods, as in the evocations of gods, be made subject to necessity, and_ compelled_ to manifest themselves? |
| 12674 | He would ask:''Does M. Littre accept the alleged facts; if so, how does he explain them?'' |
| 12674 | How did his Zulu learn the method of Home, of the Egyptian diviners, of St. Joseph of Cupertino? |
| 12674 | How do''expectancy''and the''dominant idea''explain this experience, which Mr. Aide has published in the Nineteenth Century? |
| 12674 | How does a demon differ from a hero, or from a mere soul of a dead man? |
| 12674 | How is the identity of the spirit to be established? |
| 12674 | How is the inquirer, how was Porphyry to know that the assertion is correct, that it is not the mere''boasting''of some vulgar spirit? |
| 12674 | I have been at a loss ever since what to make of this last,''says Patrick Walker, and who is not at a loss? |
| 12674 | In either case, what causes the hallucination, or are there various possible sorts of causes? |
| 12674 | In what sorts of periods, in what conditions of general thought and belief, are the alleged abnormal phenomena most current? |
| 12674 | Is it a disease of observation? |
| 12674 | Is it not the business of the owner of the house to''whustle on his ain parten,''to have his own bogie exorcised? |
| 12674 | Is there a method of imposture handed down by one generation of bad little girls to another? |
| 12674 | Is there such a thing as persistent identity of hallucination among the sane? |
| 12674 | It is suggested that Graime himself was the murderer, else, how did he know so much about it? |
| 12674 | Now, could a hallucination lift a mosquito- curtain, or even produce the impression that it did so, while the curtain was really unmoved? |
| 12674 | Now, had the peay tradition reached Cock Lane, or was the peay- man counterfeiting, very cleverly, some real phenomenon? |
| 12674 | Now, if the committee do not provide themselves with a good''sensitive''comrade, what can they expect, but what they get, that is, nothing? |
| 12674 | On the night of Lindsay''s death, Pitcairn dreamed that he was in Edinburgh, where Lindsay met him and said,''Archie, perhaps ye heard I''m dead?'' |
| 12674 | On the other hand, if Reginald Scot asked today,''Who heareth the noises, who seeth the visions?'' |
| 12674 | On this turned the fate of Joan of Arc: Were her voices and visions of God or of Satan? |
| 12674 | Or are demons in some way evolved out of something abstracted from living bodies? |
| 12674 | Or are there certain mystic correspondences in the nature of things, which may be detected? |
| 12674 | Or, if we disbelieve this cloud of witnesses, if they voluntarily fabled, we ask, why do they all fable in exactly the same fashion? |
| 12674 | Saint or sorcerer? |
| 12674 | So far, everybody is agreed: the differences begin when we ask what causes hallucinations, and what different classes of hallucinations exist? |
| 12674 | That is simple, but why are sane, scientific, modern observers, and even disgusted modern sceptics, in a tale, and that just the old savage tale? |
| 12674 | The neighbours make the noises, and again the narrator asks''how?'' |
| 12674 | The question was, did an indicator move, or not, under a certain amount of pressure? |
| 12674 | The spiritus percutiens,''rapping spirit''(?) |
| 12674 | Then were the spectators of the agile crockery collectively hallucinated? |
| 12674 | They asked:''What is the difference between a living body and a dead one?'' |
| 12674 | Thyraeus now raises the difficult question:''Are the sounds heard in haunted houses real, or hallucinatory?'' |
| 12674 | To the friends of a force or faculty in our nature, M. Littre remarks, in effect,''Why do n''t you_ use_ your force? |
| 12674 | Vincent?'' |
| 12674 | Was he well? |
| 12674 | Was there any coincidence between the hallucination and facts at the time unknown to you? |
| 12674 | We do not so much ask:''Are these stories true?'' |
| 12674 | Well, be it so; what does anthropology study with so much zest as survivals? |
| 12674 | What have she- goats to do in the matter? |
| 12674 | What is his motive? |
| 12674 | What makes them repeat the stories they do repeat? |
| 12674 | What then is the type, the typical haunted house, from which, if narratives vary much, they are apt to break down under cross- examination? |
| 12674 | When they met, she said:''Did you take your friend with you?'' |
| 12674 | Whence, then, comes the uniformity of evidence? |
| 12674 | Why should the behaviour of ghosts be an exception? |
| 12674 | Why was there no trial of the case till''about 1798 or 1799''? |
| 12674 | Will can move my limbs, if it also moves my table, what is there superstitious in that? |
| 12674 | X X? |
| 12674 | Yes: but how does that explain volatile pots and pans? |
| 12674 | and how many portraits of mediaeval people does he suppose to exist in English country houses? |
| 12674 | and''why?'' |
| 12674 | as,''_ Why are these stories told_?'' |
| 12674 | what have I done that thou should''st help to assail me? |
| 12674 | where are the spirits? |
| 12674 | who heareth their noises? |
| 12674 | who seeth their visions?'' |
| 12674 | why do n''t you supply a new motor for locomotives? |
| 12674 | { 207b} Consequently, they, at least, were hallucinations; so what was Lieutenant B.? |
| 12674 | { 319b} Perhaps the unscientific reader supposes that Dr. Carpenter replied to the arguments of M. de Gasparin? |
| 12674 | { 65b} How do you discriminate between demons, and gods, that are manifest, or not manifest? |
| 12674 | { 70b} Or is there a blending of the soul''s operations with the divine inspiration? |
| 54814 | Their weight? |
| 54814 | Allow him to give one quick glance at the picture and then see whether he can recall definitely just how many persons were in the picture? |
| 54814 | Any animal? |
| 54814 | Can you see the color, trimmings, the style of windows, doors, porches, and all the details clearly? |
| 54814 | How many can tell the different trees by name? |
| 54814 | How many legs has a spider, a fly, a bee, a butterfly? |
| 54814 | How many pictures are on the walls, where are they and what are they? |
| 54814 | How many porches? |
| 54814 | How many trees, bushes, flower beds? |
| 54814 | How many windows has it? |
| 54814 | How many windows upstairs, downstairs? |
| 54814 | If a box, what kind of a box it is-- about how long? |
| 54814 | If a vehicle is coming, how many horses, and what kind of a vehicle? |
| 54814 | If one began to wonder if the things the other was telling were true and actually happened, he would ask,"Was it really, sister?" |
| 54814 | If the picture is of a house and yard have questions like the following: How many chimneys? |
| 54814 | In Figure 5 which line is longest, A, B or C? |
| 54814 | Is the door open or closed? |
| 54814 | Is there a fence? |
| 54814 | Is there any person in the picture? |
| 54814 | Let him tell what is approaching; if persons are walking, how many? |
| 54814 | On the ground, in a bush, or up a tree? |
| 54814 | The Game of-- Who Is It? |
| 54814 | This aroused his curiosity as to what pleasure a blind boy could get flying a kite, so he asked him:"Do you enjoy flying the kite?" |
| 54814 | What Is Concentration? |
| 54814 | What color is the house? |
| 54814 | When shall we stop? |
| 54814 | Which line is longest in Figure 3--AB, CB, or BD? |
| 54814 | Which vertical lines are tallest in Figure 4--those between AB or BC? |
| 54814 | how high? |
| 54814 | how wide? |
| 54814 | the trimmings? |
| 22814 | After all,they argued,"did n''t I go to a hypnotist especially to be hypnotized?" |
| 22814 | But,you may say,"how can I expect greater results when I have n''t achieved self- hypnosis?" |
| 22814 | A feature by Ernest Havemann in the August 8, 1960 issue of_ Life_ contains a very worthwhile article on this conference called"Who''s Normal? |
| 22814 | Actually, what could take less effort? |
| 22814 | After all, is n''t he controlling the hypnotic session? |
| 22814 | After all, they ask, had n''t they been willing subjects? |
| 22814 | After explaining this technique to students, many have inquired,"Is that all there is to it? |
| 22814 | And has n''t the person convinced himself of the validity of his present state? |
| 22814 | Another frequent question is:"How do I arouse myself from the self- hypnotic state?" |
| 22814 | Are n''t these books really talking about self- hypnosis? |
| 22814 | Are n''t they describing precisely the techniques of self- hypnosis? |
| 22814 | Are n''t they once again really talking about the subconscious mind? |
| 22814 | Are n''t we all convinced that a name- brand article is better than one that is not so well- known? |
| 22814 | Are n''t we all, as we have seen, influenced by the suggestions of advertising? |
| 22814 | Are n''t your reactions automatic to the following terms: democratic party, republican party, communist party, mother, father, movie star? |
| 22814 | Are you not really interested in the end result and not the means? |
| 22814 | But what happened to many of these malingerers after they were released from the service? |
| 22814 | Chapter 2 What About the Dangers of Hypnosis? |
| 22814 | Chapter 4 How Does Self- Hypnosis Work? |
| 22814 | Did n''t they trust me? |
| 22814 | Did the circle become larger and larger? |
| 22814 | Did the object begin turning to the right following the numbers? |
| 22814 | Did you enjoy reading this book? |
| 22814 | Did you think both were the same? |
| 22814 | Do n''t many people carry or wear good- luck charms of a religious or nonreligious nature? |
| 22814 | Do n''t we accept these items in our society? |
| 22814 | Do n''t we all have a tendency to believe what we read in the paper, hear on the radio or see on television? |
| 22814 | Do n''t we frequently put our arm around a friend in grief trying to comfort him? |
| 22814 | Do n''t we generally become hungry if someone tells us it''s noon and time for lunch when, in fact, it''s only 11 o''clock? |
| 22814 | Does it work? |
| 22814 | Does n''t he usually begin by requesting the subject to fix his attention on a particular object? |
| 22814 | Does n''t the hypnotist begin by suggesting relaxation? |
| 22814 | Does n''t the stage hypnotist work with glaring lights? |
| 22814 | Does this sound incredible? |
| 22814 | Does this story sound incredible? |
| 22814 | Furthermore, how much effort is really made to get the patient off the sleeping pills? |
| 22814 | HOW DOES SELF- HYPNOSIS WORK? |
| 22814 | Have n''t you noticed that when you are happy or extremely interested in something, time passes quickly? |
| 22814 | Have n''t you thought you heard the phone ring when you were waiting for a call? |
| 22814 | Have you ever tried to make your mind a blank? |
| 22814 | How and why does it happen? |
| 22814 | How can you account for it? |
| 22814 | How permanent is most medical treatment? |
| 22814 | How would you account for it? |
| 22814 | IS HYPNOSIS THE ANSWER? |
| 22814 | If applicable to your situation, have you incorporated this idea in your daily life? |
| 22814 | If they do n''t get the results they anticipated immediately, they want to know"what''s wrong?" |
| 22814 | Is n''t such an individual, in effect, using self- hypnosis? |
| 22814 | Is n''t this exactly the same procedure that the dentist uses with his patient when he has hypnotized him for the purpose of painless dentistry? |
| 22814 | Is there a chapter that could serve as a theme for an entire book? |
| 22814 | Is there this type of help in your own community? |
| 22814 | It is like asking,"What am I doing that''s wrong?" |
| 22814 | It is:"Are the suggestions that I give myself as effective as the ones you would give me in hetero- hypnosis?" |
| 22814 | Line AB or line CD? |
| 22814 | My answer is,"What if you are?" |
| 22814 | One question that arises is:"If I''m under hypnosis, how can I give myself suggestions?" |
| 22814 | Remember how slowly time goes when you are not interested in what you are doing and how fast it speeds by when you are? |
| 22814 | Should you give up in despair, or is there still hope for you? |
| 22814 | Soc., 1960, 31:101- 106 Chapter 3 Is Hypnosis the Answer? |
| 22814 | The following paragraph is taken from the_ Life_ article:"What about psychiatry and psychoanalysis? |
| 22814 | The individual thinks,"If I''m asleep, how can I awaken myself?" |
| 22814 | The reason for this is to alleviate whatever anxiety you may have in regard to the question,"If I''m hypnotized, how do I awaken myself?" |
| 22814 | The response and image keep changing, do n''t they? |
| 22814 | WHAT ABOUT THE DANGERS OF HYPNOSIS? |
| 22814 | Was it because she was a better hypnotist? |
| 22814 | We are all sophisticated enough to know that they do not have an intrinsic value, but do n''t they do something for our mental attitude? |
| 22814 | What about the often- quoted statement that"you might do some damage"? |
| 22814 | What about the people helped? |
| 22814 | What are they really saying, and what does hypnosis represent to such an individual? |
| 22814 | What can you learn by the example just presented? |
| 22814 | What does this mean specifically to you if you are having difficulty learning self- hypnosis? |
| 22814 | What happens in this situation? |
| 22814 | What happens then? |
| 22814 | What happens? |
| 22814 | What idea in the book impressed you the most? |
| 22814 | What if you purposely set about doing the same thing in your attempt to achieve self- hypnosis? |
| 22814 | What is lost by doing it? |
| 22814 | What is that formula? |
| 22814 | What is the solution? |
| 22814 | What then is the objection to hypnosis? |
| 22814 | What would you say about the suggestibility of a person who does n''t want to talk about hypnosis? |
| 22814 | What''s wrong? |
| 22814 | What, then, is the answer to mental health problems? |
| 22814 | When asking the female child,"Whose girl are you? |
| 22814 | When asking the male child,"Whose boy are you? |
| 22814 | When he returns next week, I ask him,"How did you feel during the week?" |
| 22814 | When the subject does n''t awaken, I merely ask him in a calm manner,"Why do n''t you wish to wake up? |
| 22814 | Which one of the two lines drawn on this page is longer? |
| 22814 | Who among us is not influenced by suggestion? |
| 22814 | Who is to help these people? |
| 22814 | Why the impasse? |
| 22814 | Why? |
| 22814 | Would n''t it have been easier to duck under all at once? |
| 22814 | Would you believe this person is a potentially good hypnotic subject? |
| 22814 | Would you enjoy reading another similar book? |
| 22814 | Would you let me stick you with the pin? |
| 22814 | Would you say that lines AB and CD were perfectly straight? |
| 22814 | You might ask,"Ca n''t you tell when someone is faking?" |
| 22814 | [ Illustration] What is your answer? |
| 22814 | instead of"What can I do that''s right?" |
| 55082 | ARE YOU TO BE LUCKY? |
| 55082 | But, when the two ways give different numbers, what? |
| 55082 | CRYSTAL GAZING Before we start this chapter, will you just take a look at the following short list of terms used in crystal gazing and spiritualism? |

| 55082 | Have you never had a presentiment or feeling of evil to come, a strong feeling which it took all your determination and common sense to drive away? |
| 55082 | If you have no preferences, why not constitute a device which embraces your lucky number, your lucky flower, your lucky color, and so on? |
| 55082 | Love in a cottage is all very well-- but how when the roof leaks? |

| 23559 | Are we not all children of one Father? |
| 23559 | As big as this? |
| 23559 | As big as this? |
| 23559 | But suppose one is in delicate health, or especially subject to drafts? |
| 23559 | How big is your sea? |
| 23559 | How do we know,was the reply,"that he is not witnessing it all? |
| 23559 | How much bigger, then? |
| 23559 | How then can you describe so accurately the disease with which he is afflicted? |
| 23559 | May it not be good policy,says one,"to be governed sometimes by one''s surroundings?" |
| 23559 | The sea? 23559 Where are you going?" |
| 23559 | Who are you? 23559 A Brahmin or a Buddhist asks,Are not the Vedas inspired?" |
| 23559 | A Christian asks,"But is not our Christian Bible inspired?" |
| 23559 | And here shall we consider a few facts in connection with sleep, in connection with receiving instruction and illumination while asleep? |
| 23559 | And how can one find his centre? |
| 23559 | And how could it be otherwise? |
| 23559 | And how could it do otherwise? |
| 23559 | And how will you do it? |
| 23559 | And what do we mean by the unseen side of life? |
| 23559 | And what does this mean? |
| 23559 | And what is a God- man? |
| 23559 | And what is the result of this particular form of violation? |
| 23559 | And why should not the power of effecting such cures exist among us today? |
| 23559 | And why should we go to another for knowledge and wisdom? |
| 23559 | And why should we not have the power today, the same as they had it then? |
| 23559 | And would you have in your body all the elasticity, all the strength, all the beauty of your younger years? |
| 23559 | And, truly,"are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister to those who shall be heirs of salvation?" |
| 23559 | Another who is a Buddhist asks,"Was not Buddha inspired?" |
| 23559 | Are the laws at all different? |
| 23559 | Are we not satisfied with whatever comes into our lives? |
| 23559 | Are you a minister, or a religious teacher of any kind? |
| 23559 | Are you a painter? |
| 23559 | Are you a singer? |
| 23559 | Are you a writer? |
| 23559 | Are you an orator? |
| 23559 | Are you out of a situation? |
| 23559 | But some one says,"May it not be dangerous for us to act always upon our intuitions? |
| 23559 | But why had not Pharaoh the power of interpreting his dreams? |
| 23559 | Can anything be clearer than this? |
| 23559 | Do I fear a draft? |
| 23559 | Do n''t you? |
| 23559 | Do you know the circumstances under which Mr. Sankey sang for the first time"The Ninety and Nine?" |
| 23559 | Do you want to be a power in the world? |
| 23559 | Does this mean that we must literally betake ourselves to a private closet with a key in the door? |
| 23559 | Does this or that occurrence or condition cause you annoyance? |
| 23559 | For what, let us ask, is a miracle? |
| 23559 | He looked at me in surprise and said,"Why, you do not know my father?" |
| 23559 | His question almost invariably was,"Dost thou believe?" |
| 23559 | How can anything die before it is really born? |
| 23559 | I am sometimes asked,"To what religion do you belong?" |
| 23559 | I hear the question, What can be said in a concrete way in regard to the method of coming into this realization? |
| 23559 | If this is true of a beast, what can we say of its power upon human beings, especially upon a child? |
| 23559 | If this is true, does it not then follow that in the degree that man opens himself to this divine inflow does he approach to God? |
| 23559 | In this do we not see a complete parallel so far as human life is concerned? |
| 23559 | In this light is it not then evident that both conceptions are true? |
| 23559 | Is it something supernatural? |
| 23559 | It was Goethe who said:"Are you in earnest? |
| 23559 | No? |
| 23559 | One who does n''t grasp this great truth, a Christian, for example, asks"But was not Christ inspired?" |
| 23559 | Patriotism is a beautiful thing; it is well for me to love my country, but why should I love my own country more than I love all others? |
| 23559 | Religion dying out? |
| 23559 | Religion dying out? |
| 23559 | Said the young man, Jesus, Know ye not that I must be about my Father''s business? |
| 23559 | Say not Lo here nor lo there, know ye not that the kingdom of heaven is within you? |
| 23559 | Suppose we should have an intuition to do harm to some one?" |
| 23559 | The Hindu has said,"The narrow minded ask,''Is this man a stranger, or is he of our tribe?'' |
| 23559 | We sometimes hear the question asked,"Can they be overcome?" |
| 23559 | What is good policy? |
| 23559 | What is that? |
| 23559 | What religion? |
| 23559 | Where do you live?" |
| 23559 | Where is that?" |
| 23559 | Which is right? |
| 23559 | Who has ever appointed any man, whoever he may be, as the keeper, the custodian, the dispenser of God''s illimitable truth? |
| 23559 | Who is my mother and who are my brethren? |
| 23559 | Why are you powerless to move? |
| 23559 | Why did he not only dream, but had also the power to interpret both his own dreams and the dreams of others? |
| 23559 | Why do you tremble? |
| 23559 | Why is it? |
| 23559 | Why not go directly to the mountain top itself, instead of wandering through the by- ways, in the valleys, and on the mountain sides? |
| 23559 | Why should we not go direct to the Infinite Source itself? |
| 23559 | Why should we seek these things second hand? |
| 23559 | Why should we thus stultify our own innate powers? |
| 23559 | Why was Joseph the type of the"truly gifted seer?" |
| 23559 | Why waste time with this practice or that practice? |
| 23559 | Why, then, waste time in running hither and thither to acquire power? |
| 23559 | Why, then? |
| 23559 | Why? |
| 23559 | Will you? |
| 23559 | Would you remain always young, and would you carry all the joyousness and buoyancy of youth into your maturer years? |
| 23559 | and more, that he is not having a hand in it all,--a hand even greater, perhaps, than when we_ saw_ him here?" |
| 23559 | and more, that they are one and the same? |
| 21077 | And what share remains to it in all these phenomena, from which it seems we are endeavouring to oust it? |
| 21077 | And, in fact, what does conception by itself give? |
| 21077 | Are they identical? |
| 21077 | Are we here making use of the argument of common opinion of mankind, of which ancient philosophy made so evident an abuse? |
| 21077 | But can we subject the mental process of perception to the same purification? |
| 21077 | But does it follow that every degree, every shade, every detail of sensation, even the most insignificant, has any importance for the action? |
| 21077 | But how can all these laws be called physical laws without running the risk of confusing them one with the other?] |
| 21077 | But how can the immense meaning of the word"mind"be realised every time that it is used? |
| 21077 | But how can we conceive the transformation of this convolution into a semi- material phenomenon? |
| 21077 | But how could this analysis be made? |
| 21077 | But then what remains of the dualism of mind and matter? |
| 21077 | But then, whence comes it that I think I feel a sensation when my sensory nerve is touched? |
| 21077 | But what is identity? |
| 21077 | But who can exhibit this proof to the contrary? |
| 21077 | But who could make up his mind thus to shut himself up in perception? |
| 21077 | But will it be asserted that it is always deceived? |
| 21077 | By what means, have they long asked themselves, can that which is only extent act on that which is only thought? |
| 21077 | Can any material combination be found which corresponds thereto? |
| 21077 | Can it survive the death of the brain? |
| 21077 | Can sensation exist as physical expression, as an object; without being illuminated by the consciousness? |
| 21077 | Can the consciousness exist without having an object? |
| 21077 | Can the consciousness then continue to exist? |
| 21077 | Can the mind enjoy an existence independent of the brain? |
| 21077 | Can we go further, and suppose one of the parts thus analysed capable of existing without the other? |
| 21077 | Do not desire and consciousness together represent a something which does not belong to the physical domain and which forms the moral world? |
| 21077 | Do the consciousness and its object form two things or only one? |
| 21077 | Does it belong to the domain of physical or of moral things? |
| 21077 | Does it develop according to laws of its own, which have no relation to the laws of brain action? |
| 21077 | Does it exercise any action on the centrifugal currents which go to the motor nerves? |
| 21077 | Does it exercise any action on these intra- cerebral functions? |
| 21077 | Does it form a new group? |
| 21077 | Does not this occur daily? |
| 21077 | Does not, for instance, desire represent a complement of the consciousness? |
| 21077 | Every musical ear performs this operation easily; now, this fourth sound, what else is it but the fourth term in a rule of three? |
| 21077 | For is not conception the contrary of perception? |
| 21077 | How can it be conceived without supposing resemblance, of which it is but a form? |
| 21077 | How can we comprehend that there should issue from this convolution the material object of a perception-- for example, a plain dotted with houses? |
| 21077 | How can we doubt, we say, that it exists? |
| 21077 | How can we represent to ourselves this_ local_ union of matter with an immaterial principle, which, by its essence, does not exist in space? |
| 21077 | How could our two perceptions be similar? |
| 21077 | How could they be the same? |
| 21077 | How is it that the nerve wave, if it be the depository of the whole of the physical properties perceived in the object, resembles it so little? |
| 21077 | How, then, can the one be explained by the other? |
| 21077 | How, then, could they experience the same sensation? |
| 21077 | In what measure is it separable from the object? |
| 21077 | Is it a relation of cause to effect, of genesis? |
| 21077 | Is it a state of matter or of mind? |
| 21077 | Is it capable of exciting a movement? |
| 21077 | Is it possible to make, or at least to imagine, such an analysis? |
| 21077 | Is the converse possible? |
| 21077 | Is this impression now of a physical or a mental nature? |
| 21077 | Is this relation constant or necessary? |
| 21077 | Is what one perceives true? |
| 21077 | It is said, for example: how can it be perceived that two sensations are successive, if we do not already possess the idea of time? |
| 21077 | Might not this continuous existence of objects during the eclipses of our acts of consciousness, be demonstrated? |
| 21077 | Now, how can we know if this act of consciousness, by adding itself to the object, modifies it and causes it to appear other than it is? |
| 21077 | Once acquainted with all these possibilities of errors, how can we suppose a radical separation between the sensation and the image? |
| 21077 | Or that we can consider an object under two different aspects? |
| 21077 | Shall we go so far as to believe that this is an illegitimate mode of cognition? |
| 21077 | Since our cognition can not go beyond sensation, shall we first recall what meaning can be given to an explanation of the inmost nature of matter? |
| 21077 | Since so many divisions are possible, at which shall we stop and say: this is the one which corresponds exactly to the opposition of mind and matter? |
| 21077 | This may be represented, or may be thought; but can it be realised? |
| 21077 | Thus defined and slightly condensed, what is sensation? |
| 21077 | Unless we accept them, how is it comprehensible that we can know anything whatever of physical nature? |
| 21077 | WHAT is ELECTRICITY? |
| 21077 | What are the arguments on which I rely? |
| 21077 | What importance can this have, since all the difference depends on the position occupied by the excitant? |
| 21077 | What is capable of representation exists as a representation, but is it true? |
| 21077 | What is its action on the material phenomena of the brain which surround it? |
| 21077 | What is the nature of the link between them? |
| 21077 | What is the subject of cognition? |
| 21077 | What is the use of the memory? |
| 21077 | What is this sensation? |
| 21077 | What kind of reality do physicists then allow to the displacements of matter? |
| 21077 | What now remains? |
| 21077 | What objections can be raised against my conclusion? |
| 21077 | What relation of similarity exists between this geometrical fact and a desire, an emotion, a sensation of bitterness? |
| 21077 | What would be the structure of the ear to any one who only knew it through the sense of hearing? |
| 21077 | What, then, is the mind? |
| 21077 | Whence comes it that a blow on the eyeball gives me a fleeting impression of light? |
| 21077 | Whence comes it that a pressure on the epitrochlear nerve gives me a tingling in the hand? |
| 21077 | Whence comes this singular dilemma propounded to it by nature: to create something new or perish? |
| 21077 | Where are our duplicate organs of the senses, of which the one is turned inward and the other outward? |
| 21077 | Where do they place them, since they recognise otherwise that the essence of matter is unknown to us? |
| 21077 | Where does one see that we possess two different sources of knowledge? |
| 21077 | Where, then, is that of which we are conscious? |
| 21077 | Who can claim that one solution is more clear, more reasonable, or more probable than the other? |
| 21077 | Why a man? |
| 21077 | Why go so far afield to seek unity? |
| 21077 | and is not the ideal in opposition to reality? |
| 21077 | or a coincidence? |
| 21077 | or is it deprived of all power of creating effect? |
| 21077 | or the interaction of two distinct forces? |
| 44349 | ''Look; what is the matter with him?'' 44349 ''What is the meaning of this?'' |
| 44349 | Are you confident that the knots are securely tied? |
| 44349 | But if we are to reject this idea, which is the first which ordinary analogies would suggest, what are we to put in its place? 44349 Can he have forgotten me?" |
| 44349 | Can you perform such a miracle? |
| 44349 | Do you feel the table raising? |
| 44349 | Do you know the medium Slade? |
| 44349 | Have you prepared any slips with the names of friends, relatives, or others, who have passed into spirit life, with questions for them to answer? |
| 44349 | How did you do it? |
| 44349 | If a man die, shall he live again? |
| 44349 | My fate? |
| 44349 | What do you think of Dr. Slade''s slate tests? |
| 44349 | What is his name? |
| 44349 | What is the matter? |
| 44349 | ''You recognize that name, do you not?'' |
| 44349 | ( You may call him a_ wizard_, what does it matter to him?) |
| 44349 | Are we to regard the Creator''s work as like that of a child, who builds houses out of blocks, just for the pleasure of knocking them down? |
| 44349 | B.-- When and where did you die? |
| 44349 | Blavatsky, where was Mrs. Tingley? |
| 44349 | But how is the writing done on the slate in the second test? |
| 44349 | But how? |
| 44349 | But in this test the slate was not in his possession; how then could the writing be accomplished? |
| 44349 | But is this so? |
| 44349 | But suppose the medium relates facts that were never in the possession of the sitter, what are we to say then? |
| 44349 | But why go to science for such a demonstration? |
| 44349 | Can telepathy account for C''s knowledge? |
| 44349 | Can words describe it? |
| 44349 | He and his wife thought a great deal of my mother, and frequently stopped me on the street to inquire,"How is Mary?" |
| 44349 | He asked himself the question:"''Why was the sound of the silver bell not heard at once, but only after she had left the room and come back again?''" |
| 44349 | He looks at you and calls"Mary,--how is Mary?" |
| 44349 | He says:"Is this telepathic action an ordinary case of action from a center of disturbance? |
| 44349 | How did you get hold of it?'' |
| 44349 | How is it done? |
| 44349 | I replied,"but how are they done?" |
| 44349 | I sat down, whereupon he seated himself opposite me, remarking as he did so,"Have you brought slates with you?" |
| 44349 | If I should move my feet ever so little, you would know it, would you not?" |
| 44349 | If telepathy does not enter into these cases, what does? |
| 44349 | If this be so, why the attempts at_ disguise_, and bungling attempts at that? |
| 44349 | Is it equally diffused in all directions? |
| 44349 | Is it like the light of a candle or the light of the sun which radiates equally into space in every direction at the same time? |
| 44349 | Is there any such material guide in the case of telepathy? |
| 44349 | J.-- Where did you die, and from what disease? |
| 44349 | Now, tell me, is it an easy task for an amateur to tie a man up off- hand with a rope three yards long, in a very secure way? |
| 44349 | Sealed letters? |
| 44349 | The surprising feature about the above case was the alleged spirit communication,"Mary-- how is Mary?" |
| 44349 | Then how is it done? |
| 44349 | To B. G.-- Can you recall any of the conversations we had together on the B. and P. R. R. cars? |
| 44349 | To Len-- Tell me the cause of your death, and the circumstances surrounding it? |
| 44349 | To Mamie:-- Tell me the name of your dead brother? |
| 44349 | What is Theosophy?_ 237_ III. |
| 44349 | When I finished it I went to her and said:''Where in the world did you get that quotation?'' |
| 44349 | Will you help me? |
| 44349 | said C--,"is there a spirit present?" |
| 38962 | ( 2) Is either sex more variable than the other in mental traits? |
| 38962 | ( 3) Are there any special causes of intellectual inefficiency affecting one sex but not the other? |
| 38962 | ( 4) Are there any sex differences in affective or instinctive equipment which would naturally lead to vocational differentiation of the sexes? |
| 38962 | ( 5) What explanation is to be given of the traditional division of labor between the sexes? |
| 38962 | ----; in winter? |

| 51743 | Is there any need to settle whether we shall live after death? |
| 51743 | Must we forfeit this new hope that we may see them again? |
| 51743 | Now, which of these were ever"white"? |
| 51743 | Was Charles Williams white? |
| 51743 | Was Colchester, who was detected and exposed, white? |
| 51743 | Was Florence Cook, the pupil of Herne( the transporter of Mrs. Guppy at sixty miles an hour) and bewitcher of Sir W. Crookes, white? |
| 51743 | Was Foster white? |
| 51743 | Was her friend and contemporary ghost- producer, Miss Showers, never exposed? |
| 51743 | Was she ruined? |
| 51743 | Well, who are they? |
| 51743 | Were Bastian and Taylor white? |
| 51743 | What can be said for Sir W. Crookes? |
| 51743 | What chance has the ordinary inquirer, much less the eager Spiritualist, against guile of this description? |
| 51743 | What chance have you in a poor light? |
| 51743 | What chance have you, then, against a man or woman who has been conjuring for twenty years? |
| 51743 | What earthly chance have you in the dark? |
| 51743 | What is the evidence which Sir W. Barrett, knowing that the general public has no leisure to investigate these things, endorses as satisfactory? |
| 51743 | What is the value of such conversions? |
| 51743 | Where, then, are the snow- whites? |
| 51743 | Who are the"distinguished"Spiritualists_ to- day_? |
| 51743 | Who could doubt either the word or the competence of the Chief Judge of the Supreme Consular Court of China and Japan? |
| 51743 | Who in England knew anything about Piet Botha and his death? |
| 51743 | Who is this mysterious lady? |
| 51743 | Why not simply_ imagine_ that the dead still live, and save the guinea? |
| 51743 | Will he ask why? |
| 20654 | Is it really green, or is it just taking me in? |
| 20654 | Oh, but where are the factory chimneys? |
| 20654 | What do you want? 20654 Woman, what have I to do with thee?" |
| 20654 | You love mother, do n''t you, dear? |
| 20654 | --or else--"Why have you left out the gas- works?" |
| 20654 | A man is a thing of scientific cause- and- effect and biological process, draped in an ideal, is he? |
| 20654 | And I_ will_ drive you home to yourself, do you hear? |
| 20654 | And all the time we yell at him:"Will you deny love, you villain? |
| 20654 | And from the sun, can the spores of souls pass to the various worlds? |
| 20654 | And how is your cousin Signor Martian?" |
| 20654 | And how to get out of it? |
| 20654 | And how? |
| 20654 | And if I try to do this-- well, why not? |
| 20654 | And is astrology not altogether nonsense? |
| 20654 | And it has experienced these extended reactions with whom? |
| 20654 | And me? |
| 20654 | And since the mother- child relationship is to- day the viciousest of circles, what are we to do? |
| 20654 | And then what? |
| 20654 | And then what? |
| 20654 | And then?--and then, with this glamorous youth? |
| 20654 | And to the worlds of the cosmos seed across space, through the wild beams of the sun? |
| 20654 | And to- day what have we but this? |
| 20654 | And what about a goal? |
| 20654 | And what does this mean? |
| 20654 | And what is this other, greater impulse? |
| 20654 | And what then? |
| 20654 | And which is positive, which negative? |
| 20654 | And you do n''t know how, do you? |
| 20654 | And, I ask you, what good will psychoanalysis do you in this state of affairs? |
| 20654 | As for children, will we never realize that their abstractions are never based on observations, but on subjective exaggerations? |
| 20654 | Because anyhow, whom has he experimented on? |
| 20654 | Bury it? |
| 20654 | But are they as they were before? |
| 20654 | But because the mother- child relation is more plausible and flagrant, is that any reason for supposing it deeper, more vital, more intrinsic? |
| 20654 | But briefly, coldly, and with as cold a dismissal as possible.--"Look here, you''re not a child any more; you know it, do n''t you? |
| 20654 | But can you say the same of America? |
| 20654 | But does this prove a repressed incest desire? |
| 20654 | But if the child thus seeks the mother, does it then know the mother alone? |
| 20654 | But in what way does the life of individuals depend directly upon the moon? |
| 20654 | But is this sex? |
| 20654 | But is this the whole of sex? |
| 20654 | But once a woman is sexually self- conscious, what is she to do? |
| 20654 | But still-- we_ might_ live, might n''t we? |
| 20654 | But what does it matter? |
| 20654 | But what if he believes that his sexual consummation is his supreme consummation? |
| 20654 | But what is bullying? |
| 20654 | But what is the experience? |
| 20654 | But what? |
| 20654 | But why should they understand? |
| 20654 | By what right, I ask you, are we going to inject into him our own disease- germs of ideas and infallible motives? |
| 20654 | Come now, Columbia, where is your High- falutin''Nonsense trumpet? |
| 20654 | Do you think you''re as obvious as a poached egg on a piece of toast, like the poor lunatic? |
| 20654 | Hence Jesus,"Woman, what have I to do with thee?" |
| 20654 | How does the figure of the mother gradually develop as a_ conception_ in the child mind? |
| 20654 | How is it then that they feel, and look, so girlish? |
| 20654 | If I try to write down what I see-- why not? |
| 20654 | Is it hence sex? |
| 20654 | Is the air the same after a thunder- storm as before? |
| 20654 | Is the dynamic passion in a horse the danger- passion? |
| 20654 | Is the straightness none too evident? |
| 20654 | Is there not your ostensible navel, where the rupture between you and her took place? |
| 20654 | Is there seed of Mars in my veins? |
| 20654 | Is this new craving for polarized communion with others, this craving for a new unison, is it sexual, like the original craving for the woman? |
| 20654 | Is this new polarity, this new circuit of passion between comrades and co- workers, is this also sexual? |
| 20654 | Knowing what sex is, can we call this other also sex? |
| 20654 | Love-- what is love? |
| 20654 | Man, the doer, the knower, the original in_ being_, is he lord of life? |
| 20654 | My watch? |
| 20654 | Now does all life work up to the one consummating act of coition? |
| 20654 | Now what is the act of coition? |
| 20654 | Or is woman, the great Mother, who bore us from the womb of love, is she the supreme Goddess? |
| 20654 | Or make an effort with a stranger? |
| 20654 | Or was the American only bragging? |
| 20654 | Or was woman, with her deep womb of emotion, born from the rib of active man, the first created? |
| 20654 | Otherwise how could it maintain a definite and progressively developing relation to her? |
| 20654 | Pray, what is combustion? |
| 20654 | Say to yourself:"Come now, what is it all about?" |
| 20654 | See him, see him, Michael? |
| 20654 | Shall I be blasted by this false lightning?" |
| 20654 | So what about the next step? |
| 20654 | So what have you? |
| 20654 | Some must know what a child beholds, when it looks at a horse, and what it means when it says,"Why is grass green?" |
| 20654 | Suppose you want to look a tree in the face? |
| 20654 | That is, does he follow the smell of the leather itself, or the vibration track of the individual whose vitality is communicated to the leather? |
| 20654 | The atom? |
| 20654 | Then say to yourself:"Why am I in such a fluster?" |
| 20654 | Therefore, why should they make a pretense of it? |
| 20654 | Was man, the eternal protagonist, born of woman, from her womb of fathomless emotion? |
| 20654 | Was the building of the cathedrals a working up towards the act of coition? |
| 20654 | Was the dynamic impulse sexual? |
| 20654 | Well, then, what about it? |
| 20654 | What ails you, you whiner?" |
| 20654 | What does all this mean? |
| 20654 | What have we got that will carry through? |
| 20654 | What is he actually to do with his sensual, sexual self? |
| 20654 | What is sex, really? |
| 20654 | What is the good of a tree desiring to fly like a bird in the sky, when a bird is rooted in the earth as surely as a tree is? |
| 20654 | What is the good of trying to break away from one''s own? |
| 20654 | What now, that the upper centers are finely active in positivity? |
| 20654 | What, do n''t you believe it? |
| 20654 | When a child says,"Why is grass green?" |
| 20654 | When did any machine, even a single spinning- wheel, automatically evolve itself? |
| 20654 | Where are the white negroid teeth? |
| 20654 | Where does he even keep his soul?--Where does anybody? |
| 20654 | Where in us are the sharp and vivid teeth of the wolf, keen to defend and devour? |
| 20654 | Where? |
| 20654 | Why did we fall into this gnawing disease of unappeasable dissatisfaction? |
| 20654 | Why does the dream- process act so? |
| 20654 | Why force abstractions and kill the reality, when there''s no need? |
| 20654 | Why should we cram the mind of a child with facts that have nothing to do with his own experiences, and have no relation to his own dynamic activity? |
| 20654 | Why should you? |
| 20654 | Why try coaxing and logic and tricks with children? |
| 20654 | Why were we driven out of Paradise? |
| 20654 | Will you?" |
| 20654 | With what result? |
| 20654 | With what result? |
| 20654 | With what result? |
| 20654 | Yes, he did--"Now who will tell me that this talk has any rhyme or reason? |
| 20654 | Yet is this dynamic flow inevitably sexual in nature? |
| 20654 | You know that, do n''t you, dear? |
| 20654 | You''ll want to have a dear little baby, wo n''t you, darling? |
| 20654 | or"Do you call that sloppy thing a church?" |
| 7082 | And did you not bring away something from his house? |
| 7082 | For what purpose am I called? |
| 7082 | What is it you demand to have done? |
| 7082 | Wherefore am I called? |
| 7082 | Who are you? |
| 7082 | ''How now?'' |
| 7082 | And how is this devil employed according to sir Matthew Hale and sir Thomas Browne? |
| 7082 | And, if these poor women were too obtuse of soul entirely to feel the pang, did that give their superiors a right to overwhelm and to crush them? |
| 7082 | Are all the Gods subject to this control, or, is there one God upon whom it has power, who, himself compelled, compels the elements? |
| 7082 | Do they yield from necessity, or is it a voluntary subjection? |
| 7082 | He said, he was not guilty; but, being asked how he would be tried? |
| 7082 | How can I be secure from the false accusations of the unprincipled informers who infest your court? |
| 7082 | Is it the piety of these hags that obtains the reward, or by menaces do they secure their purpose? |
| 7082 | Macduff pursued him, and was hard at his heels, when the tyrant turned his horse, and exclaimed,"Why dost thou follow me? |
| 7082 | Now the first circumstance that strikes us in this affair is, why the crime was not expressed in more perspicuous and appropriate language? |
| 7082 | Now what are the premises on which they proceed in this question? |
| 7082 | The wife in great terror asked,"Were you not at Dr. Lamb''s to- day?" |
| 7082 | We hear there is likely to be a battle shortly: what, fled from your colours?'' |
| 7082 | Well may they exclaim, like the ghost of Samuel in the sacred story,"Why hast thou disquieted me?" |
| 7082 | What can be more tyrannical, than an inquisition into the sports and freaks of fancy? |
| 7082 | What is, to a proverb, more lawless than imagination? |
| 7082 | What more unsusceptible of detection or evidence? |
| 7082 | What shall we say to the story of his various transmigrations? |
| 7082 | When Mr. Thoroughgood saw his friend Lindsey come into his yard, his horse and himself much tired, in a sort of a maze, he said,''How now, colonel? |
| 7082 | Why, for example, was it not said, that the first and chief branch of treason was to"kill the king?" |
| 7082 | Wot ye not that such a man as I could certainly divine?" |
| 7082 | Yet what so irrational as man? |
| 7082 | [ 19] They brought the strangers again into the presence of Joseph, who addressed them with severity, saying,"What is this deed that ye have done? |
| 7082 | said Cromwel,''What, troubled with the vapours? |
| 7082 | said he,"and what is it that you demand?" |
| 37047 | And I ask you, of what order is that spirit? |
| 37047 | And here if the objectors return and say, who told you that there are spirits; Is not yours a precarious hypothesis? |
| 37047 | And is this, without laughing, true? |
| 37047 | And pray, replied Mr. Barnard, what reason have you beyond a pun to take him for a Jacobite? |
| 37047 | And shall a manifest experience be so easily exploded? |
| 37047 | And what sort of a boy is he? |
| 37047 | As big as you are? |
| 37047 | But then, say you, why can not those persons be cured by physicians? |
| 37047 | But what fools periods read for periods''sake? |
| 37047 | But what sort of a boy is that that meets you? |
| 37047 | Can we make it a scruple, whether God will permit innocent persons should be so traduced? |
| 37047 | Did the little boy appoint you? |
| 37047 | Do good spirits dwell so near us, or are they sent on such messages? |
| 37047 | Does he write? |
| 37047 | For how does a demon stir up raptures or ecstacies in men? |
| 37047 | For how many gipsies and pretenders to chiromancy have we in London and in the country? |
| 37047 | Hereupon, being much affrighted, he fell into an extreme sweat, so that his wife awaking and finding him all over wet, she asked him what he ailed? |
| 37047 | How many that are for hydromancy, that pretend in water to show men mighty mysteries? |
| 37047 | In what English book? |
| 37047 | Is not this hypothesis as precarious as any man may pretend that of spirits to be? |
| 37047 | Is not this like what you call hearing? |
| 37047 | Lying in his bed, pensive, Bocconi appeared to him; my Lord Middleton asked him if he were dead or alive? |
| 37047 | May not we have leave to recriminate in this place? |
| 37047 | Must he be so because his name is Perkin? |
| 37047 | Now the man that had the second- sight was to be tried; it was now to be put to the proof if he could tell names or no? |
| 37047 | Now what can be more infinitely profane than to use the prayer our Lord instituted in such a way? |
| 37047 | One of the fathers immediately asked him if he understood Latin? |
| 37047 | Or what should touch our consciences, being convicted by so many testimonies? |
| 37047 | Pray, who told Aristotle that there were intelligences that moved the celestial spheres? |
| 37047 | Shall his obstinacy confute the learned? |
| 37047 | Shall his want of faith be thought justly to give the lie to so many persons of the highest honour and quality, and of the most undoubted integrity? |
| 37047 | Shall we place him in the number of the rebels, whom their pride precipitated into the abyss? |
| 37047 | The reply Cantle made him was this; Does he not love ringing? |
| 37047 | Then it asked him whether he did not know him? |
| 37047 | This being thought extraordinary, and Sir Norman hearing one whisper him in the ear, asked who advised him so skilfully? |
| 37047 | To begin: how are children at first taught a language that can hear? |
| 37047 | To whom the fathers, being somewhat of an eager spirit, said; What should make us doubtful in this case? |
| 37047 | Upon this Sir Norman asked him how long it was since he had learned to play? |
| 37047 | What greater testimony would the most incredulous have? |
| 37047 | What interest could an earl and many noblemen have in promoting such an imposture? |
| 37047 | What noisy talker can thy magic boast? |
| 37047 | Will you imagine that you are in commerce with a spirit? |
| 37047 | _ My question._ But what was you staring at when I came in? |
| 37047 | _ My question._ How big is he? |
| 37047 | _ My question._ How does he do it? |
| 37047 | _ My question._ I will be sure to keep it secret; but how do you know you are to meet them there to- day? |
| 37047 | and what are those sounds, but tokens and signs to the ear, importing and signifying such and such a thing? |
| 37047 | and what sort of a lamb? |
| 37047 | and yet, retaining love to him, as Dives to his brethren, would have him saved? |
| 37047 | are they not taught by sounds? |
| 37047 | have aids from thee; Wilt thou, like witty heathens, lewdly given, To a Gehenna metamorphose Heaven? |
| 37047 | or is it his guardian angel? |
| 37047 | or is it the soul of some dead friend that suffers? |
| 37047 | or of the intelligences, who continued firm in faith and submission to their creator? |
| 37047 | though they are like other boys and other lambs which you see, they are a thousand times prettier and finer? |
| 37047 | will you not take time to translate that book which is sent unto you out of Germany? |
| 47200 | 111 What hour do you love?" |
| 47200 | 129 What musical sounds do you love?" |

| 47200 | Amongst the vines, See''st thou not where thy_ villa_ stands? |
| 47200 | Ask you why the stalk is weak, And bending, yet it doth not break? |
| 47200 | Can she, will she we d for gold? |
| 47200 | Can such smiles be false and cold? |

| 41386 | And how can anything be deeply ourselves which developed accidentally, without set intention? |
| 41386 | And is there, again, any intelligent way of modifying the future except to attend to the full possibilities of the present? |
| 41386 | But does he? |
| 41386 | But how does the case stand with language? |
| 41386 | But where are Helen, Hector and Achilles in modern warfare? |
| 41386 | But why not harden himself so that others''sufferings wo n''t count? |
| 41386 | But why, he may protest, go to an opposite extreme and make the future but a means to the significance of the present? |
| 41386 | But_ why_ act for the wise, or good, or better? |
| 41386 | Does it liberate or suppress, ossify or render flexible, divide or unify interest? |
| 41386 | For is not its lesson that we should concentrate attention, each upon the consciousness accompanying his action so as to refine and develop it? |
| 41386 | He will ask: Can its motive be made universal for all cases? |
| 41386 | How is the tremendous diversity of institutions( including moral codes) to be accounted for? |
| 41386 | How much would be lost if it were dropped out, and we were left face to face with actual facts? |
| 41386 | How shall impulse exercise that re- adjusting office which has been claimed for it? |
| 41386 | How shall thought which is personal arrive at standards which hold good for all, which, in modern phrase, are objective? |
| 41386 | How then can we get leverage for changing institutions? |
| 41386 | How then does it come about that current economic psychology has so tremendously oversimplified the situation? |
| 41386 | How then shall we choose among them? |
| 41386 | How would one like it if by one''s act one''s motive in that act were to be erected into a universal law of actual nature? |
| 41386 | If a man lived alone in the world there might be some sense in the question"Why be moral?" |
| 41386 | If one''s own present experience is to be depreciated in its meaning because it centers in a self, why act for the welfare of others? |
| 41386 | Is imagination diverted to fantasy and compensatory dreams, or does it add fertility to life? |
| 41386 | Is it desired in any sense for itself, or only because it is the means of effective adjustment of a whole set of underlying habits? |
| 41386 | Is memory made apt and extensive or narrow and diffusely irrelevant? |
| 41386 | Is not such thought of necessity shut out from effective power, from ability to control objects and command events? |
| 41386 | Is not the effect of such a doctrine to weaken putting forth of endeavor in order to make the future better than the present? |
| 41386 | Is perception quickened or dulled? |
| 41386 | Is the value of_ that_ present also to be postponed to a future date, and so on indefinitely? |
| 41386 | Is there any way out of the vicious circle? |
| 41386 | Is thought creative or pushed one side into pedantic specialisms? |
| 41386 | Just what is the significance of an alleged recognition of a supremacy which is continually denied in fact? |
| 41386 | Or is the garage simply a means by which a divided body of activities is redintegrated or coordinated? |
| 41386 | Or when the tickled vanity of social admiration is masked as pure love of learning? |
| 41386 | SECTION III: WHAT IS FREEDOM? |
| 41386 | Still the question recurs: What authority have standards and ideas which have originated in this way? |
| 41386 | The answer to the question"Why not put your hand in the fire?" |
| 41386 | To ask these questions is equivalent to asking: Why live? |
| 41386 | What claim have they upon us? |
| 41386 | What do they do that is distinctive? |
| 41386 | What does the statement amount to? |
| 41386 | What is its office, its function, its_ possibility_, or use? |
| 41386 | What is to be done with these facts of disharmony and conflict? |
| 41386 | What of that? |
| 41386 | What sense is there in increased external control except to increase the intrinsic significance of living? |
| 41386 | What then is choice? |
| 41386 | What then is meant by individual mind, by mind as individual? |
| 41386 | What, then, really happens when the actual outcome of satisfied revenge figures in thought as virtuous eagerness for justice? |
| 41386 | Where does thought exist and operate when it is excluded from habitual activities? |
| 41386 | Who knows when it will end, or what fortune the morrow will bring? |
| 41386 | Why attend to metaphysical and transcendental ideal realities even if we concede they are the authors of moral standards? |
| 41386 | Why did morality set up rules so foreign to human nature? |
| 41386 | Why did we not set out with an examination of those instinctive activities upon which the acquisition of habits is conditioned? |
| 41386 | Why do this act if I feel like doing something else? |
| 41386 | Why does moral authority exist at all? |
| 41386 | Why employ language, cultivate literature, acquire and develop science, sustain industry, and submit to the refinements of art? |
| 41386 | Why have men become so attached to fixed, external ends? |
| 41386 | Why is the claim of the Right recognized in conscience even by those who violate it in deed? |
| 41386 | Why not follow our own immediate devices if we are so inclined? |
| 41386 | Why not rather condemn impulse and exalt habits of reverencing order and fixed truth? |
| 41386 | Why should the power of foresight and effort to shape the future, to regulate what is to happen, be slighted? |
| 41386 | Why should what is derived and therefore in some sense artificial in conduct be discussed before what is primitive, natural and inevitable? |
| 41386 | Why then should not the satisfactory plum shed its halo retrospectively upon what precedes and be taken as a sign of virtue? |
| 41386 | Why then was human nature so averse to them? |
| 41386 | Why, indeed, acknowledge the authority of Right? |
| 41386 | Would one then be willing to make the same choice? |
| 33506 | And about the manifestations at Hydesville in 1848 and the finding of bones in the cellar and so on? |
| 33506 | It is all a trick? |
| 33506 | Mrs. Jencken, are you willing to join with your sister in exposing the true modus operandi of Spiritualism? |
| 33506 | Then you will not deny that what she has said of Spiritualism is true? |
| 33506 | What can I add to the revelations of those letters? 33506 Why do n''t you come squarely out, then, with the truth, and make the public your friends? |
| 33506 | Will you greatly oblige me with an answer? 33506 You want to know what are the points of my coming exposà ©? |
| 33506 | ''Is the person living that injured you?'' |
| 33506 | *** Oh, Maggie, are you never tired of_ this weary, weary sameness of continual deceit_? |
| 33506 | And if it could not, does not this pretended"evidence"fall at once to the ground? |
| 33506 | Are the sounds produced in your room when you have no shoes on? |
| 33506 | Are there seven members of the Committee present? |
| 33506 | Are they all seated around one table? |
| 33506 | Are they seated at two tables? |
| 33506 | Are those the shoes which you usually wear? |
| 33506 | Are we likely to have any demonstration?'' |
| 33506 | Are you able to communicate with him now? |
| 33506 | Are you ever conscious of any vibration in your bones? |
| 33506 | As if the''Spirits''might or might not communicate? |
| 33506 | But can he not do it by trickery? |
| 33506 | But do you feel now, to- night, any untoward influence operating against you? |
| 33506 | By-- what? |
| 33506 | Could anything be more blasphemous, more disgusting, more thinly deceptive than that? |
| 33506 | Could one man''s hand cover them all? |
| 33506 | Do these raps always have that vibratory sound-- tr- rut-- tr- rut-- tr- rut? |
| 33506 | Do you know a man named Kellar, who is exhibiting in this city? |
| 33506 | Do you know that there is something behind the shadowy mask of Spiritualism that the public can hardly guess at? |
| 33506 | Do you not think so? |
| 33506 | Do you suppose that the present conditions are such that you can throw the raps to a part of the room other than that in which you are? |
| 33506 | He says further:"The inquiry was then addressed to Mr. Slade: Do you know a man named Guernilla, who, with his wife, gave sà © ances? |
| 33506 | How did Mr. Kellar do that? |
| 33506 | How does your hand feel when affected in that way? |
| 33506 | How in the world shall we test that? |
| 33506 | How many feet, pray you? |
| 33506 | I asked:''Is it a spirit? |
| 33506 | I asked:''Were you injured in this house?'' |
| 33506 | I have told my sister Leah over and again:''Now that you are rich, why do n''t you save your soul?'' |
| 33506 | I presume then, that it is Henry Seybert? |
| 33506 | I said,''Flat Foot, can you dance the Highland fling?'' |
| 33506 | I then asked:''Is this a human being that answers my questions so correctly?'' |
| 33506 | Is Mr. Seybert present? |
| 33506 | Is Mr. Seybert still present? |
| 33506 | Is any spirit present now? |
| 33506 | Is any spirit present whom I know, or who knows me? |
| 33506 | Is it Henry Seybert? |
| 33506 | Is the spirit the same that was present last night? |
| 33506 | Isolating you from the table? |
| 33506 | It was but natural:"Since you now despise Spiritualism, how was it that you were engaged in it so long?" |
| 33506 | Margaret Fox, the mother, used to say to her husband:"Now, John, do n''t you see that it''s a wonderful thing?" |
| 33506 | Not now? |
| 33506 | Now Mr. Seybert, can not you produce some raps? |
| 33506 | Now, Mr. Seybert, if your''spirit''is here, will you have the kindness-- I knew Mr. Seybert well in life-- to rap? |
| 33506 | Now, Spirits, will you rap on the floor? |
| 33506 | She says she will lecture, does she? |
| 33506 | She used to say when we were sitting in a dark circle at home:''Is this a disembodied spirit that has taken possession of my dear children?'' |
| 33506 | Spirits, is he not easily fooled?" |
| 33506 | The freer the raps come, the better for you? |
| 33506 | The glasses are not placed over the marble, are they? |
| 33506 | The"spirits"answered:"What do you think we require you to sit close to the table for?" |
| 33506 | Then it was not the regular triple rap? |
| 33506 | This shocked mother and she said:''O, Leah, how can you encourage that fiend by singing for him to dance?'' |
| 33506 | Thus the doctor wrote to Maggie in New York:"Is the old house dreary to you? |
| 33506 | Under what conditions can you influence them? |
| 33506 | Was there an answer to that? |
| 33506 | Well, how does he perform his wonderful exploits in''rappings,''etc.? |
| 33506 | Wells?" |
| 33506 | Were any of you gentlemen acquainted with Mr. Seybert in his lifetime? |
| 33506 | What are the rules? |
| 33506 | What are they to my wishes? |
| 33506 | What can they indicate in a spiritual way, except that the soul of man is descending to a lower point that it has ever reached while incarnate? |
| 33506 | What did we know? |
| 33506 | What will become of you? |
| 33506 | What would you do? |
| 33506 | Who am I? |
| 33506 | Who can doubt this who knows human nature? |
| 33506 | Will the Spirit rap here? |
| 33506 | Will the''Spirit''rap again? |
| 33506 | Will you communicate with him before Mr. Pepper leaves to- night? |
| 33506 | Will you give me a piece of paper? |
| 33506 | Will you rap on the floor? |
| 33506 | Will you repeat the raps we heard just now, assuming that there were some? |
| 33506 | Will you repeat your taps to indicate that you are present yet? |
| 33506 | You asked that question, I think? |
| 33506 | You say that in the generality of cases they are beyond your control? |
| 62273 | And confessed that the Devil did ask of her, whether she was a poor woman? |
| 62273 | And thereupon this Informant''s wife did ask of the said Agnes, who it was that was at the door? |
| 62273 | And thereupon this informant did ask of the said Agnes, who it was that stood at the door? |
| 62273 | At the first time of your examination you said it was like a short black man about the length of your arm? |
| 62273 | Did you ever lie with the Devil? |
| 62273 | Did you or them bewitch his child? |
| 62273 | Did you pass through the keyhole of the door or was the door open? |
| 62273 | H._ Mary Trembles, what have you to say as to the crime you are to die for? |
| 62273 | Have you made any contract with the Devil? |
| 62273 | If thou hast anything to speak, speak thy mind? |
| 62273 | In what shape? |
| 62273 | This informant demanded of her, why she had not confessed so much when she was in prison last time? |
| 62273 | Upon which this Informant did demand of her the said Temperance whether she had been suckt at that place by the Black Man? |
| 62273 | Upon which this informant said,"Why dost thou weep for me?" |
| 62273 | Well, consider you are just departing this world: do you believe there is a God? |
| 62273 | What Malice had you against her? |
| 62273 | _ H._ And did you go? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Are you willing to have any prayers? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Did he ever make use of thy body? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Did he ever take any of thy blood? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Did he give thee any gift, or did''st thou make him any promises? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Did he offer violence to you? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Did you bruise her till the blood came out of her nose and mouth? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Did you know any mariners that you or your associates destroyed by overturning of ships or boats? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Did you know one Mr. Lutteris about these parts, or any of your confederates? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Had he ever any carnal knowledge of thee? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Had you no discourse or treaty with him? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Have you a secret teat? |
| 62273 | _ H._ How did he appear to thee at the first, or where, in the street? |
| 62273 | _ H._ How did you know it was the Devil? |
| 62273 | _ H._ How many did you destroy and hurt? |
| 62273 | _ H._ In what shape did the Devil come to you? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Mary Trembles, was not the Devil there with Susan, when I was once in prison with you, and under her coats? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Susan, did you see the shape of a bullock? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Susan, had you any knowledge of the bewitching of Mrs. Lutteris''child, or did you know a place called Trunta Burroughs? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Temperance, how did you come to hurt Mrs. Grace Thomas? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Was it you or Susan that did bewitch the children? |
| 62273 | _ H._ What caused you to do harm? |
| 62273 | _ H._ What did he do when he came to thee? |
| 62273 | _ H._ Why did you not call upon God? |
| 62273 | _ H._ You say you never hurt ships or boats; did you never ride over an arm of the sea on a cow? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ Did the Devil never promise you any thing? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ Did you know of their coming to gaol? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ Do you believe in Jesus Christ? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ Had you no discourse with the Devil? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ Have you anything to say to satisfy the world? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ How do you know you did it? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ In what shape or colour was he? |
| 62273 | _ Sh._ You were charged about twelve years since, and did you never see the Devil but about this time? |
| 62273 | _ T._ At the Door? |
| 62273 | and did she do you any harm? |
| 62273 | how went you in thro''the keyhole or the Door? |
| 62273 | the other told me he was there, but is now fled; and that the Devil was in the way when I was going to Taunton with my son, who is a Minister? |
| 30440 | ''And have you no explanation of these hauntings?'' 30440 ''But within a radius of a few miles?'' |
| 30440 | ''How far are the houses off the hill?'' 30440 ''Well,''William replied, a puzzled expression on his face,''you noticed an ebony chair in the room?'' |
| 30440 | And what would be the after- effect, Mr O''Donnell? |
| 30440 | But why did you venture here alone? |
| 30440 | Is n''t it terrible? |
| 30440 | Pray what was the matter with her? 30440 Well?" |
| 30440 | What is your opinion on that point? |
| 30440 | Where is she? |
| 30440 | Wo n''t you come with me? |
| 30440 | Yes,I replied;"but how on earth do you know?" |
| 30440 | You will let me know when you do? |
| 30440 | ''Are the houses close together-- in the same road or valley?'' |
| 30440 | ''Whoever can it be?'' |
| 30440 | ; or are they things that were never carnate? |
| 30440 | A phantasm of some dead tree? |
| 30440 | And, if they have one sense, have they not others? |
| 30440 | Another glass of Moselle?" |
| 30440 | Are the insects, the trees, the fish responsible for the diseases with which they are inflicted? |
| 30440 | Are their crude devices and mad, tomboyish pranks merely reactionary, and the only means they have of finding vent for their naturally high spirits? |
| 30440 | But are we always right? |
| 30440 | But be serious now, I beg you, and tell me what made you come to- night and what you have been doing all these years? |
| 30440 | But what caused the man in the street to notice me? |
| 30440 | But, of course, you wo n''t mind spending a night in it?'' |
| 30440 | CHAPTER VI COMPLEX HAUNTINGS AND OCCULT BESTIALITIES What are occult bestialities? |
| 30440 | Ca n''t you see it?" |
| 30440 | Can I expect you to believe that? |
| 30440 | Can they see, hear, or smell? |
| 30440 | Can they, like certain-- not all-- dogs and horses and other animals, detect the proximity of the unknown? |
| 30440 | Can you see any association in the two hauntings-- any possible connection between what you heard and what Mr Vercoe saw?" |
| 30440 | Could anyone save the blindest and most fanatical of biblical bigots call the ordainer of such a punishment merciful? |
| 30440 | Dingan exclaimed, when I approached him on the subject,''the mango tree on the Yuka Road, just before you get to the bridge over the river? |
| 30440 | Do they tremble and shake with fear at the sight of some psychic vegetation, or are they utterly devoid of any such faculty? |
| 30440 | Do you know what the sounds were, Baroness? |
| 30440 | Had she no dowry, or was she an heiress with an ogre of a father, or was she already married?" |
| 30440 | Hans inquired,"and why unarmed? |
| 30440 | Have I seen them? |
| 30440 | Have they any senses at all? |
| 30440 | Have you heard from Mr Vercoe lately?" |
| 30440 | How came you to get hold of such a crazy idea?'' |
| 30440 | How utterly futile, for who, in God''s name, would hear me? |
| 30440 | I fell on my knees before her and kissed-- what? |
| 30440 | I murmured,''why Dolmen?'' |
| 30440 | I was at an"at home"one afternoon several seasons ago, when an old friend of mine suddenly whispered:"You see that lady in black, over there? |
| 30440 | If the unknown brain has a separate existence, and can detach itself at times( as in"projection"), why must it wait for death to set it entirely free? |
| 30440 | In my dreams, in the wild fantasies that had oft- times visited my pillow at night-- in delirium, in reality, where? |
| 30440 | Is n''t she divine? |
| 30440 | Is n''t that so, Jacques?'' |
| 30440 | It is more than twelve hours since he was executed; will anything-- will the shape, the personality, I anticipate-- come? |
| 30440 | Leaning over the little tile- covered table at which we sat, the stranger suddenly said:"Do you see anything by me? |
| 30440 | May not that creaking be sometimes due to an invisible presence in the chair? |
| 30440 | Now, what do you think of that?" |
| 30440 | Or is it the reverse? |
| 30440 | Over and over again I asked myself the hackneyed, but none the less thrilling question,''What form will it take? |
| 30440 | Presently a voice, every whit as lovely as the face, said:"So you are Jack''s chum?" |
| 30440 | Shall we leave the beast here or take it with us?" |
| 30440 | Something is coming, and, if that something is not the phantasm of him whom I believe is earthbound, whose phantasm is it? |
| 30440 | The Crescent, Bath?" |
| 30440 | Then, quite suddenly, a man stepped out from the dark entrance to a by- street, and, touching me lightly on the arm, said,"Is there anything amiss? |
| 30440 | WHERE? |
| 30440 | Was it a shape of my fancy, or was it horrible reality that I heard and saw on that night? |
| 30440 | What ails you?" |
| 30440 | What are pixies? |
| 30440 | What do you think of them?" |
| 30440 | What had I seen? |
| 30440 | What is the matter?" |
| 30440 | What phantasm of any standing at all would be attracted by such baubles? |
| 30440 | What prompted him to lend me his aid? |
| 30440 | What shall I do?" |
| 30440 | What was it? |
| 30440 | What was it? |
| 30440 | What was the history of the house?" |
| 30440 | What, then, is it? |
| 30440 | When will you start, and what will you take with you?'' |
| 30440 | When would he begin his job and how? |
| 30440 | Whence came it? |
| 30440 | Whence come these strangers, to all appearance of flesh and blood like myself? |
| 30440 | Where could one find a greater combination of typically criminal characteristics? |
| 30440 | Who has not seen, or fancied he has seen, a fire- coffin? |
| 30440 | Why not? |
| 30440 | Why should He? |
| 30440 | Why? |
| 30440 | Will it be simply a phantasm of a dead Celt, or some peculiarly grotesque and awful elemental[1] attracted to the spot by human remains?'' |
| 30440 | Would it be rid of him? |
| 30440 | Would that God, if He were almighty, have permitted the existence of such an enemy( or indeed an enemy at all) as the Devil? |
| 30440 | Yet of what? |
| 30440 | Yet what could I do? |
| 30440 | Yet where did these articles go, and of what use would they be to a poltergeist? |
| 30440 | You ask me why? |
| 30440 | _ Fire- coffins_ Who has not seen all manner of pictures in the fire? |
| 30440 | _ Mermaids_ Who would not, if they could, believe in mermaids? |
| 30440 | or a vice- elemental, whose presence there would be due to some particularly wicked crime or series of crimes perpetrated on or near the spot? |
| 30440 | some peculiar species of spirit( I have elsewhere termed a vagrarian), attracted thither by the loneliness of the locality? |
| 30440 | some vicious, evil phantasm? |
| 30440 | was it true? |
| 30440 | what shall I do? |
| 48001 | Alvarus was very much affected at this news--''What,''said he,''have I been laying up hoard upon hoard only to leave it behind me? 48001 But, my dear children,"said Mr. Willock,"if the former was the countenance of the wicked Baron before he committed the crime, how did it appear now? |
| 48001 | Is it not a pity, my dear children, that the latter years of a good old man like this should be disturbed with grief-- that an old man should weep? 48001 Pray, sir, whose portrait is that?" |
| 48001 | Surely here are the features of this bravo, full of defiance and resentment; is it not the face of ANGER? 48001 The stranger was the rich Norman Baron de la Braunch.--''Well,''cried he,''Nicholas, how does fortune use thee?'' |
| 48001 | What is it, papa? |
| 48001 | ''Blessed St. Anthony,''cried she,''what is this? |
| 48001 | ''Good people,''said the stranger,''will you afford a traveller shelter from the storm?'' |
| 48001 | ''Well,''cried Nicholas,''and what will become of me? |
| 48001 | ''What is that?'' |
| 48001 | ''What, Nicholas,''cried he,''is it you? |
| 48001 | ''You are mighty curious,''continued he;''what business is it of yours how much the woman owes? |
| 48001 | --"Dear sir,"interrupted William,"what beautiful boat is that?" |
| 48001 | --''And what am I to have?'' |
| 48001 | --''And you are quite certain that you would be happy if you were rich?'' |
| 48001 | --''Bless me, how is that?'' |
| 48001 | --''Come, come, good people,''cried the Baron,''be better tempered with each other: and do you think, good woman, that riches would make you happy?'' |
| 48001 | --''Heaven knows,''replied Gertrude.--''Who told you to speak?'' |
| 48001 | --''How so?'' |
| 48001 | --''I can not yet comprehend you,''answered the young scholar;''what has happened to her?'' |
| 48001 | --''May it, Nicholas?'' |
| 48001 | --''My dear, do n''t you understand the gentleman?'' |
| 48001 | --''Not so,''cried the other.--''What are they then?'' |
| 48001 | --''Peace, Gertrude,''cried Nicholas,''may not this money be a temptation?'' |
| 48001 | --''The very night indeed,''repeated Gertrude.--''Are you sure of this?'' |
| 48001 | --''Well, how then?'' |
| 48001 | --''What ails you, my dear Nicholas?'' |
| 48001 | --''What, and do n''t you fret when you have a loss?'' |
| 48001 | --''What, coming up already?'' |
| 48001 | --''Who knows?'' |
| 48001 | --''Willingly, sir,''answered Nicholas.--''Very willingly, sir,''interrupted Gertrude;''wo nt you be pleased to sit down, sir?'' |
| 48001 | Are not these, my dear children, his features? |
| 48001 | How are your father and mother? |
| 48001 | How does Le Brun describe it?" |
| 48001 | I am ill, Nicholas, very ill.''"Nicholas asked if he could do any thing for his uncle? |
| 48001 | I suppose that you wo nt pay the money for her, will you?'' |
| 48001 | If it is night, and we view the stars, what can we conjecture but that they must be placed in the firmament by an Almighty hand? |
| 48001 | Is not all this matter of_ Admiration_? |
| 48001 | On the stranger''s approach, he heard a man scolding--''What,''cried he,''do you think I am to keep you for nothing, you little lazy monkey? |
| 48001 | Suppose we look at the next picture; will not your looks be more like it than this? |
| 48001 | What can I do with all these riches?'' |
| 48001 | What have we here?" |
| 48001 | do you know that I have done nothing but fret ever since my disaster: but, bless me, what is here? |
| 48001 | is not this the delightful countenance, the beauteous face of COMPASSION? |
| 48001 | what ails my poor Nicholas?'' |
| 48001 | what delight has this world afforded me? |
| 48001 | what enjoyment have I had? |
| 48001 | why do n''t you get another withy, and bind up these faggots?'' |
| 26430 | Under what condition, in a symphonic work, is the visual image, introduced by the psychic image, produced? 26430 ''What time are vespers sung in your town?'' 26430 After this, is it necessary to remark that belief depends peculiarly on the motor elements of our organization and not on the intellectual? 26430 And why so? 26430 Are not these dispositions of the mind fertile in artifices, stratagems, inventions of all kinds? 26430 Are there characters peculiar to each one? 26430 Are there races or groups of men totally devoid of myths? 26430 Are these images complete, in the strict sense of the word? 26430 Are these two views irreconcilable? 26430 Besides, has an experiment, in the strict sense of the word, ever been made at thepsychological moment"? |
| 26430 | But is there a criterion other than that? |
| 26430 | But what is the nature of this work? |
| 26430 | But what is their nature? |
| 26430 | By what positive signs do we recognize it? |
| 26430 | CHAPTER II THE CREATIVE IMAGINATION IN THE CHILD At what age, in what form, under what conditions does the creative imagination make its appearance? |
| 26430 | CHAPTER V LAW OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE IMAGINATION Is imagination, so often called"a capricious faculty,"subject to some law? |
| 26430 | CONCLUSION I THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE CREATIVE IMAGINATION Why is the human mind able to create? |
| 26430 | Classifications are made according to the essential dominating attributes; but, as regards the varieties of the creative imagination, what are they? |
| 26430 | Consequently, is it not paradoxical to relate it to plastic imagination, as species to genus? |
| 26430 | Dare we hold that hypochondria and insanity following upon the delirium of persecution are devoid of imagination? |
| 26430 | Difficulties of the subject.--The degree of imagination in animals.--Does creative synthesis exist in them? |
| 26430 | Do not people discuss seriously the objective value of certain myths, and of metaphysical theories? |
| 26430 | Does experimentation, strictly so called, teach us anything on this point? |
| 26430 | First of all, do all representations include motor elements? |
| 26430 | Flechsig''s theory.--Physiological conditions: are they cause, effect, or accompaniment? |
| 26430 | Greatness is altogether a relative idea; and would not our great creators seem, to beings better endowed than we, very small? |
| 26430 | Has it not often been said that the religion of one is superstition to another, and_ vice versâ_? |
| 26430 | Has the creative power of the human mind also analogous antecedents, a physiological equivalent? |
| 26430 | Have not psychologists distinguished, according as one or another of image- groups preponderates, visual, auditory, motor and mixed types? |
| 26430 | Have they inspired myths? |
| 26430 | He was so absorbed in the matter that he did not notice a man coming toward him, and at the question,''M......, if you please--?'' |
| 26430 | Here is an idea_ A_; it is the center of a network; it can radiate in all directions--_B, C, D, E, F, etc._ Why does it call up now_ B_, later_ F_? |
| 26430 | How are we to determine these varieties? |
| 26430 | How draw a dividing line so as to assign to the imagination only its rightful share? |
| 26430 | How many creators have been wrecked because the conditions necessary for their inventions were lacking? |
| 26430 | How may we rightly assert that a form of imaginative life is clearly pathologic? |
| 26430 | If, for example, some lower type had the power of arresting pain, how could it lose it? |
| 26430 | In conclusion, I anticipate a possible question:"Does the unconscious factor differ in nature from the two others( intellectual and emotional)?" |
| 26430 | In passing, let us put the opposite question, Why is one_ not_ imaginative? |
| 26430 | In short, should we look for his representative character within him or without? |
| 26430 | In what respect does this mode of creation differ from others, at least in the practical order? |
| 26430 | Is a psychology of great inventors possible? |
| 26430 | Is association by resemblance, which Wundt calls internal, strictly speaking, an elementary law? |
| 26430 | Is it based on a special structure in the brain, or rather on special irritability? |
| 26430 | Is it only a superficial likeness, a hasty judgment, a metaphor, or does it rest on some positive basis? |
| 26430 | Is it psychological? |
| 26430 | Is it purely physiological? |
| 26430 | Is it useful or hurtful? |
| 26430 | Is not the way clear and is it not well enough to go in this direction? |
| 26430 | Is the stick that he bestrides perfectly identified with a horse? |
| 26430 | Is there a connection between the development of the generative function and that of the imagination? |
| 26430 | Is there a"seat"of the imagination? |
| 26430 | Is there not an art frankly and deliberately pessimistic? |
| 26430 | Is this sometimes found in the animal kingdom? |
| 26430 | Judging from this, how refuse them invention altogether? |
| 26430 | Let us now study the psychology of this creative activity, reducing it to these two questions: How are myths formed? |
| 26430 | May the type of imagination, the chief manifestations of which we have just enumerated, be considered as identical with the idealistic imagination? |
| 26430 | Need we mention the Middle Age practice of charms, which even in our day still has adherents among cultured people? |
| 26430 | Plato and More-- would they have wished to realize their dreams? |
| 26430 | Shall we say that it is"instinctive,"consequently unconscious? |
| 26430 | Then they have been led to ask: Which of these two elements is the primitive one? |
| 26430 | There are some associations based on contiguity and on resemblance which one may foresee, but how about the rest? |
| 26430 | They are helpers of inspiration.--Is there any analogy between physical and psychic creation? |
| 26430 | This method aside, since the determination must be made according to the individuality of the architect, what method shall we follow? |
| 26430 | This much admitted, let us return to our special question, which Flechsig asks in these words:"On what does genius rest? |
| 26430 | To begin with, is it necessarily inherent in the human mind? |
| 26430 | To keep even to esthetic creation, is it necessary to recall the saying_ facit indignatio versum_? |
| 26430 | Was Sully''s child, that showed its doll a series of engravings to choose from, completely deceived? |
| 26430 | We might just as well ask why does man have eyes and not an electric apparatus like the torpedo? |
| 26430 | We shall try later( in the Conclusion) to answer the question,_ Why_ is one imaginative? |
| 26430 | What business has this affectation this morning in a classic and dull building, in a common environment of poor workmen? |
| 26430 | What could he accomplish? |
| 26430 | What does it produce in the practical, esthetic, scientific, moral, social, religious field? |
| 26430 | What is superstition? |
| 26430 | What line does their evolution follow? |
| 26430 | What more have poets and artists done? |
| 26430 | What more then is needed? |
| 26430 | What then shall we do with the emotional geniuses-- the poets and artists? |
| 26430 | What theory was more clinging, more fascinating in its applications, than that of phlogiston? |
| 26430 | What, indeed, could it be? |
| 26430 | Whence, then, comes this persistent and in some respects seductive idea that creation is an instinctive result? |
| 26430 | Where does it begin, and where does it end? |
| 26430 | Where, indeed, find more favorable conditions for knowing it? |
| 26430 | Which is the chief process here? |
| 26430 | Who created those legends and tales of adventure constituting the subject- matter of mythology? |
| 26430 | Who does not know of Newton''s apple, Galileo''s lamp, Galvani''s frog? |
| 26430 | Who does not know the symbolism of the cathedrals, and the vagaries to which it has given rise? |
| 26430 | Why are people inclined to believe that our present subject, if not entirely foreign to the imagination, is only an impoverished form of it? |
| 26430 | Why does a man create? |
| 26430 | Why does he perceive changes of odors but not magnetic changes? |
| 26430 | Why does he perceive directly sounds but not the ultra- red and ultra- violet rays? |
| 26430 | Why is one called up rather than another, and at such a moment rather than at another? |
| 26430 | Why, then, the view above mentioned? |
| 26430 | Why? |
| 26430 | Would it be improper to consider as a variety of the genus a mode of representation that could be expressed as_ clearness in simplicity_? |
| 26430 | Would it be possible? |
| 26430 | Yet is it not the mother of phantoms, of numberless superstitions, of altogether irrational and chimerical religious practices? |
| 26430 | [ 39] Has not chorea itself been called a muscular insanity? |
| 26430 | that is, according to our present notions, on chemical factors? |
| 26430 | the action of a novel or drama as though it were a matter of real events? |
| 26430 | the character of the_ dramatis personae_ as though they were living flesh and blood? |
| 26430 | which is a slightly different question from that usually asked,"Are there tribes totally devoid of religious thoughts?" |
| 38134 | But shall I not return? |
| 38134 | Can you tell us naught? 38134 Do you wish to know what stands in the way of our coming to the rescue? |
| 38134 | We know a little of the hither, can we know aught of the thither world? |
| 38134 | A great many people appear to be able to, why should not I? |
| 38134 | And now, shall I branch out in a tale of strange adventure? |
| 38134 | And what, if anything, is there in it to dread? |
| 38134 | And who can describe the healing power of music under a master''s hand? |
| 38134 | And why so? |
| 38134 | Are there any special credits that you claim which seem never to have been acknowledged? |
| 38134 | But now another question: Do I see with the lens which is a part of my eye? |
| 38134 | By their conduct they seem to say, What is death more than a mere journey to another country? |
| 38134 | CHAPTER V. Is there any common ground on which science and religion meet? |
| 38134 | Can we never know your secret till, in the dust, we lay down our bones with yours?" |
| 38134 | Can you possibly gain it by setting foot on religion itself? |
| 38134 | Do I see it now_ with the lens_? |
| 38134 | Do you think it impossible that such an experience could come to any one who should afterwards recover life to describe it? |
| 38134 | Does any accusation lie against you? |
| 38134 | Does it seem absurd to say that, in order to study life, a man must die? |
| 38134 | Does that constitute a part of the hearing power of a man? |
| 38134 | Does the spirit respond in anger? |
| 38134 | For instance, take this passage from one of the magazines:"But what does the work of higher criticism really mean? |
| 38134 | Have you ever been in the presence of a man who could fairly be said to_ embody_ religion? |
| 38134 | Have you not two kinds of consciousness, one of the world and all it contains, and one of personal existence in its various relations? |
| 38134 | He consents, for why should he not? |
| 38134 | How about the ear itself? |
| 38134 | How much of this is true of man as an individual? |
| 38134 | How proceed in such a case? |
| 38134 | How shall he get free? |
| 38134 | I grant you that it seems so, but would discussion settle it? |
| 38134 | I might take my stand here, but prefer to go one step further, and put a question: What were those emotions? |
| 38134 | If death does not mean a loss of consciousness necessarily, what is its distinguishing feature as compared with life? |
| 38134 | If death, then, is not annihilation, nor the mere passing from one kind of life into another, what is it? |
| 38134 | If it does, what is the necessity of the auditory nerve? |
| 38134 | If so, what have you to say in regard to it? |
| 38134 | If so, what is the nature of it? |
| 38134 | In the society of what people, or what class of people, are you content? |
| 38134 | Is it not all a dream? |
| 38134 | Is it not evident that the thought of death in that case must borrow blackness and mystery of a kind that does not pertain to it? |
| 38134 | Is it not time the door was opened? |
| 38134 | Is not that also merely an aid to vision? |
| 38134 | Is there anything you wish to confess? |
| 38134 | Is there no need? |
| 38134 | Is there no voice from the sepulchre? |
| 38134 | Is there not some way by which I can take the free- and- easy course and yet incur no penalty? |
| 38134 | Is this experience, do you think, any less to be dreaded by a selfish spirit than is death by a mortal who is consciously not ready? |
| 38134 | Just what are its relations to me, and what are mine to a future life? |
| 38134 | Just where do you belong? |
| 38134 | Now, if the world of things had thus vanished, what could remain? |
| 38134 | Or a sà © ance, what is it more than a telephone office? |
| 38134 | Shall I seek to convey to my readers what led to those experiences which have so isolated me in thought? |
| 38134 | Shall I try to tell you, from the standpoint of experience, what death is? |
| 38134 | Should I go ahead and trust to luck, and expect to get the compound just the same as though I followed the directions? |
| 38134 | The laws of conduct less rigid than the laws of chemistry? |
| 38134 | The question I seem called upon to answer is, How can a man be alive and dead at the same time? |
| 38134 | The question may be asked, Wherein lies the difference between man the unit, and the race which is an aggregation of these units? |
| 38134 | The question, What were Franklin''s emotions when signing the Declaration of Independence? |
| 38134 | To what concealment do you claim a right? |
| 38134 | WHICH WAY, SIRS, THE BETTER? |
| 38134 | We gather but little from the platform; what can we learn from the grave? |
| 38134 | What are its relations to present facts? |
| 38134 | What are they? |
| 38134 | What can I do to prove it? |
| 38134 | What do you have to do anyhow?" |
| 38134 | What does he do? |
| 38134 | What is the most striking difference between that world and this one? |
| 38134 | What is this resignation like? |
| 38134 | What is to be done? |
| 38134 | What kind of reasoning can be weaker than this? |
| 38134 | What know they who are robed in shrouds? |
| 38134 | What new device for entrapping the elusive dollar shall I conjure up to- day?" |
| 38134 | What philosophical difference is possible? |
| 38134 | What right have I to complain if they have done with me, by their superior power and foresight, what I have tried to do with them? |
| 38134 | What shall this state be compared to? |
| 38134 | What would the science of chemistry amount to if such a thing were possible? |
| 38134 | Where can I obtain clear light on the subject? |
| 38134 | Who are you? |
| 38134 | Who has arrested my current of thought? |
| 38134 | Why do authors speak of a_ cold_ greeting, of_ walls_ of reserve,_ rivers_ of kindness, or the_ sunshine_ of love? |
| 38134 | Why not try for them? |
| 38134 | Why? |
| 38134 | Why? |
| 38134 | You are ready to believe it for the material, why not accept it in the spiritual? |
| 38134 | You will recognize the principle involved in this, but is it of universal application? |
| 38134 | and how may I obtain a common- sense view of it? |
| 38134 | and what do you want?" |
| 43966 | Eh, Maister, did ye see that? |
| 43966 | What want ye here? |
| 43966 | What''s wrang wi''ye the nicht, Maggie-- what''s tae fricht ye, my lass? |
| 43966 | Would you see me? |
| 43966 | ''Ken ye''( quo''I)''o''yon new cheese our wyfe took but frae the chessel yestreen? |
| 43966 | ''Rabbin,''quo''she,''fand ye are auld bane amang the cowes?'' |
| 43966 | ''What brings Wullie hame''ee noo, and whaur''s he gaun?'' |
| 43966 | ''What e''e d''ye see me wi''?'' |
| 43966 | ''What in the name of wonder was that?'' |
| 43966 | ''What''ll we do wi''the wee diel?'' |
| 43966 | ''What''s wrang wi''the boy?'' |
| 43966 | ''What,''( says the Lass)''am I a child yet?'' |
| 43966 | As the phantom carriage plunged nearer, the skipper, regaining some little of his courage, ran forwards, hailing in sailor fashion--"Where bound? |
| 43966 | As to Jennet, the goodman''s daughter, he cryes to her,"Jennet Campbel, Jennet Campbel, wilt thou cast me thy belt?" |
| 43966 | But did I ever say that if you would come to Innerwick and employ me that I would go all the way to Dumfries upon that errand? |
| 43966 | But tell me, Coul, is it not as easy for you to write your story as it is to tell it, or to ride on-- what- is- it- you- call- him? |
| 43966 | Coming up with him again, who halted all the time I sought my staff, I asked once more"Who he was?" |
| 43966 | He asked me if I had considered the matter he had recommended? |
| 43966 | How could I vindicate myself? |
| 43966 | I enquired,"If he was the Laird of Coul, what brought him hither?" |
| 43966 | I know, said he, that this is a mere evasion; but tell me if your neighbour, the laird of Thurston, will do it? |
| 43966 | I then sat up in bed and called out,"Who''s there? |
| 43966 | I''m gaun to send''t t''ye i''the morning, ye''re a gude neebor to me: an''hear''st thou me? |
| 43966 | Quoth she,"what a widdy would thou do with my belt?" |
| 43966 | Sayes she to the Minister''s wife,"Shall I do it?" |
| 43966 | She asks,''How could it then be that her Bible was covered over with bloud?'' |
| 43966 | The Devil said to him,"Say you that? |
| 43966 | The Laird had plenty, had neither wife nor a wean, sae wha cud greet? |
| 43966 | The ghostly call of the night,"How long?" |
| 43966 | The goodman and his wife became alarmed, while the lads and lassies ran madly about interrogating one another with''Where''s granny?'' |
| 43966 | The hare had observed him, and at once inquired if he would shoot his own mother? |
| 43966 | They wakened him, and then he, hearing it say"Thou shalt be troubled till Tuesday,"asked,"Who gave thee a commission?" |
| 43966 | Wad ye be sae good as turn the lade o''your jaw- hole anither way, as a''your foul water rins directly in at my door? |
| 43966 | What made you turn half- road?'' |
| 43966 | What then are your demands upon me? |
| 43966 | _ Ogilvie_--Pray, Coul, who informed you that I talked at that rate? |
| 43966 | _ Ogilvie_--So it seems when Andrew Johnstoun inclines to ride you must serve him for a horse, as he now does you? |
| 43966 | _ Ogilvie_--Well, then, what sort of body is it that you appear in, and what sort of a horse is it that you ride on that appears so full of mettle? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Alexander, where learned you that art? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ But are there any alyve that was at your brothering? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ But how could the silver tumbler be brought back and put in a fast- locked room? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Did any person bring the things back, or how came they back? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Did you make use of herbs as it is reported of you in order to the bringing of them back? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Did you not bring back a book of Mrs Violet''s? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Did you not mutter some words when you used these charms? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Did you not say you could cause any woman in London come down to you if but told her name? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Did you not take money for the bringing of them back? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ How came the cloaths back? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ How did you bring them back? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ How did you make use of the herbs that you might know where they were? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ What are the herbs which had that effect upon your sleep? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ What are they? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Why did you not bring back all the aprons, for there is one of them awanting yet? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Why did you not bring back the mattock and other things? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Why did you not bring back the silver spoon that was lost? |
| 43966 | _ Q._ Why did you not tell of the people who took away these cloaths, seeing thieves ought to be discovered for the good of the country? |
| 43966 | and whar wur they gaun? |
| 43966 | and where from?" |
| 43966 | and"What was his business with me?" |
| 43966 | how should I prove that ever you had spoken with me? |
| 43966 | quoth the auld guidman;"What wad ye, whare won ye-- by sea or by lan''? |
| 43966 | what are ye talkin''aboot? |
| 43966 | what do you want?" |
| 43966 | who owned the hay and the horses? |
| 43966 | will ye not speake to me? |
| 43966 | ye hae little wit; Is''tna Hallowmas now, and the crap out yet?" |
| 46647 | ''But how did you get the money?'' 46647 ''But you are not going away with my money, are you?'' |
| 46647 | ''Can you give it back to me?'' 46647 ''So it is money you want?'' |
| 46647 | ''What do you mean bythis horrible place"? |
| 46647 | ''Will you stay where you are until I can get some?'' 46647 But why?" |
| 46647 | But, do you know? 46647 Can such things be?" |
| 46647 | Did I hear_ what_? |
| 46647 | Do those lines mean anything? |
| 46647 | Do you mean to tell me,he demanded, looking at me incredulously and with alarm still in his face,"that you did not hear that awful groan?" |
| 46647 | Do_ you_ know what has become of those tomatoes? |
| 46647 | Have you been playing me a trick? |
| 46647 | I said:''Who are you, and what do you want?'' 46647 In heaven''s name,"I cried,"what is it?" |
| 46647 | Is this insanity? |
| 46647 | Oh, no, dear,I said;"these are probably some other pansies; how can you tell they came from your bed?" |
| 46647 | So you did not give them to him, after all? |
| 46647 | Something very bad has happened-- do you want to tell me what it is? |
| 46647 | Tell me, has anyone passed through here into my room? |
| 46647 | Then what he said was true, that his mother comes back to trouble him? |
| 46647 | They call it''palmistry,''do n''t they? 46647 What is it, sir?" |
| 46647 | What is it? |
| 46647 | What is it? |
| 46647 | What on earth is the matter with those dogs? |
| 46647 | What were the clothes like? |
| 46647 | Where did you find it? |
| 46647 | Why do you come to me? |
| 46647 | Why, no,her friend replied;"how could anyone? |
| 46647 | Why,she exclaimed,"how did these come here? |
| 46647 | ''Do you need it now?'' |
| 46647 | ''Is n''t that enough?'' |
| 46647 | ( naming the Liberal clergyman and writer whom most of us had known in Boston, and who had died some five or six years before)"Why, is that you? |
| 46647 | --"And from where?" |
| 46647 | --I echoed her words:--"How do you know it is Deeming''s mother?" |
| 46647 | And how had it been extracted from the locked box inside the locked dressing table? |
| 46647 | And then, the dogs:--do you think_ they_ were dreaming, too?" |
| 46647 | Are you sure you were not dreaming?" |
| 46647 | But what happened then?" |
| 46647 | But why had he wished to sell it, and what help could he hope to gain thereby? |
| 46647 | Ca n''t you see that we want to talk?" |
| 46647 | Ca n''t_ you_ see her?" |
| 46647 | Do you remember that rhinestone brooch in the shape of a butterfly you bought for me one evening in Paris, four years ago?" |
| 46647 | Do you see_ that_?" |
| 46647 | Here is my question:--What is your opinion of Deeming?" |
| 46647 | How can I give these coins to you?'' |
| 46647 | I commented upon this circumstance to my hostess, who replied:--"Yes, it is very early for them, is it not? |
| 46647 | I cried;''are you Deeming?'' |
| 46647 | I exclaimed, interrupting the recital for the first time:"was_ that_ what he said?" |
| 46647 | I exclaimed:--"It was Deeming?--and he asked you to buy_ soap_?" |
| 46647 | I exclaimed;"what about the dogs?" |
| 46647 | I exclaimed;"what are those dogs doing here? |
| 46647 | I have always believed the stories of haunted houses were bally nonsense; but in heaven''s name what does all this mean?" |
| 46647 | I say-- what kind of a house_ is_ this? |
| 46647 | Is that what has disturbed you to- night?" |
| 46647 | Is there no significance, is there no consolation, not only to myself but to others who have been bereaved, in this episode? |
| 46647 | It said:''Madame, do you want to buy some_ soap_?''" |
| 46647 | It was not on the pin cushion last night; how in the world did it come here?" |
| 46647 | Oh, Minnie, Minnie, what are you doing?" |
| 46647 | Tell me, John Weiss, what it all means? |
| 46647 | The garments from the wardrobe of the hangman; was the murderer doomed to go through all Eternity in this hideous attire? |
| 46647 | The money was returned again, but had it meanwhile been entered in some misty ledger to the credit of its temporary bearer? |
| 46647 | The offered sale of soap; is the occupation of"drummer"or"bagman"practiced beyond the Styx, and for what ghostly manufacturers are orders solicited? |
| 46647 | Was it for the toilette or the laundry? |
| 46647 | Was the soap a sample? |
| 46647 | What are you doing here, and what does this mean? |
| 46647 | What could he mean by offering to sell me soap?" |
| 46647 | What do you mean?" |
| 46647 | What does she bother me so for? |
| 46647 | What was its price per cake, and was there any discount by the box? |
| 46647 | Why ca n''t she leave me alone?" |
| 46647 | Why do n''t the band play?" |
| 46647 | Why have you done so?'' |
| 46647 | Why should you distress me as you do?'' |
| 46647 | You ca n''t see her? |
| 46647 | exclaimed Mrs. Candler,"what in the world is the matter? |
| 46647 | he cried;"did you hear_ that_?" |
| 46647 | stammered my companion:--"did you hear it_ then_?" |
| 46647 | we inquired;"an apparition?" |
| 61807 | Are there any spirits present? |
| 61807 | When will it? |
| 61807 | Will the spirit please to explain why it will not rap upon the table? |
| 61807 | Will the spirit please to rap now? |
| 61807 | Will the spirit please to rap now? |
| 61807 | Will the spirit please to rap? |
| 61807 | Will the spirit rap here? |
| 61807 | Will the spirit_ please_ to rap upon the table? |
| 61807 | Will the spirits please to tip the table? |
| 61807 | A new fluid, forsooth? |
| 61807 | Are these the fruits of legitimate and holy deeds? |
| 61807 | Are these your consolations while at your spiritual shrines? |
| 61807 | Are you not ministering encouragement to her hagship, and pursuing her very vocation, though under another name? |
| 61807 | Are you, Christian man or woman, one whit better for these doings than that woman with the familiar spirits, the Witch of Endor? |
| 61807 | DO SPIRITS WEAR PETTICOATS_ and long dresses_? |
| 61807 | Do you think that rappings and table- tippings give respectability to witchcraft? |
| 61807 | Does any one suppose that Arago ever entertained for a moment the idea of electrical action in this connection? |
| 61807 | Has a spirit_ bones, muscles, fingers, heels, toes, and sticks_? |
| 61807 | Has a"spirit flesh and blood?" |
| 61807 | His testimony was confirmed by several others, all witnesses of the highest respectability, and what was it all worth? |
| 61807 | If these pests of society are beyond the reach of earthly tribunals, will you countenance and encourage their career? |
| 61807 | Is it this? |
| 61807 | Is not this the inference, the inevitable conclusion? |
| 61807 | Mr. F.,& c.""We think it hard to impugn such testimony, and why should not their word in this matter go as far as yours?" |
| 61807 | Mr.*** propounded as follows: Will the spirit inform us of the spirit the gentleman is thinking of? |
| 61807 | One of my scientific friends then asked if they would not rap if they were suspended in a swing, or stood upon a pillow? |
| 61807 | Or were they far away on some errand of duty, or busy and monopolized for some_ special tippings_ elsewhere? |
| 61807 | Ought we not to infer that the paper and the ruler were pushed by the hand, since the hands followed them in their motion? |
| 61807 | Perhaps her mother saw this, for she rose from her seat and said,"You are not tricking, now?" |
| 61807 | Pointing to a name with a pencil, he asked, Is it this? |
| 61807 | Shall eternity be made subordinate to time; the immortal to the mortal? |
| 61807 | Shall it be said then that the Almighty is capable of trifling? |
| 61807 | Shall we be met here with the assertion that there are religious maniacs, that religious excitement makes madmen, and leads to deeds of violence? |
| 61807 | Spirits, do you say? |
| 61807 | Spirits, rapping upon doors, floors, and tables, upsetting tables and swinging them about the room? |
| 61807 | The rappers were then sitting some distance from the table, and we asked if the"Spirits would rap upon the table?" |
| 61807 | Were the spirits present, and not disposed to gratify a certain class of_ dilettanti_ who were present? |
| 61807 | Were they jesting and teazing, or in bad humor with our persons, our fixtures, or our espionage? |
| 61807 | What could have been the cause of this abortive conjuration? |
| 61807 | Will it inform us correctly? |
| 61807 | Without claiming any depth in biblical lore, we ask them where is the authority for any such conclusion in the Bible? |
| 61807 | [ 1] Are you not rather her disciple? |
| 61807 | _ A new power?_ It is a lawful subject of pursuit, to the very exhaustion of mental resources. |
| 61807 | _ A new power?_ It would frustrate his schemes in their very inception. |
| 61807 | a nervous force that acts exterior to, and independent of, its own tenement and rightful fulcrum? |
| 61807 | and is she not held up to you for an example and a warning? |
| 61807 | and what is all other testimony worth upon this_ aerial vaulting_ of tables? |
| 61807 | or that it should be the great reservoir of electricity, magnetism,"_ new fluid_,""_ od_,"or what not? |
| 61807 | that propels masses heavier than the_ body corporate_, without rending the latter in twain? |
| 8554 | Ah, my lord,said the wise Cineas,"what prevents our being in peace and comfort now?" |
| 8554 | And after that? |
| 8554 | And what will you do next, my lord? |
| 8554 | And when we have conquered all we can, what shall we do? |
| 8554 | But do the effects of poison_ always_ pass away? 8554 But has science established everything? |
| 8554 | Can you prove that it is_ not_ in my lung? |
| 8554 | Do? 8554 How much in English money?" |
| 8554 | I do n''t know anything about that; how much is it in English? |
| 8554 | What is existence? |
| 8554 | What_ are_ you doing? |
| 8554 | _ Ca n''t_ you see that I am busy? |
| 8554 | And can you_ prove_ that they have passed away in my case? |
| 8554 | And if it had, is such negative evidence to be weighed against the positive evidence of the sensation in my lung?" |
| 8554 | And whom call you the unsound doubter? |
| 8554 | But the doubter who finds himself in this predicament adds to these legitimate doubts the question,"Ought I to have accepted the office?" |
| 8554 | But what of their effect upon the already over- conscientious and self- exacting child? |
| 8554 | Does he enjoy it? |
| 8554 | Doubt as well? |
| 8554 | How shall he start in? |
| 8554 | How shall we set to work to acquire a fad, without special opportunity or education, and with but little time at our disposal? |
| 8554 | How, then, if being lame thou canst not mount up on the battlement alone, but with the help of another it is possible? |
| 8554 | If I enter a strange shop and find they desire security, need I take this as a reflection on_ my_ credit? |
| 8554 | Is he fit for the position, or, if not, can he acquire the fitness without detriment to the office? |
| 8554 | Is he insane? |
| 8554 | Is it not rather egotistic for me to suppose that others are vitally interested in the fact that I blush, tremble, or am awkward? |
| 8554 | Is it worth my while to fret during those three days and to make it up by being elated on the fourth? |
| 8554 | Is not the sensation positive evidence, since you have allowed that you can not prove that the sensation does_ not_ come from the poison?" |
| 8554 | It can not be said that he toils not, but to what end? |
| 8554 | Or, as someone has said, why not"make friends with the weather?" |
| 8554 | Regarding senseless fears he counsels:"What need is there of suspicious fear, since it is in thy power to inquire what ought to be done? |
| 8554 | Say to yourself,"Why tired and cross? |
| 8554 | Shall he resign or continue? |
| 8554 | Suppose agin she should n''t?''" |
| 8554 | Suppose, in fact, the doubter has made a mistake; how shall he banish the worry? |
| 8554 | WHY WORRY? |
| 8554 | What to it are nuggets and millions''? |
| 8554 | Where are my weapons? |
| 8554 | Why not occupy my thoughts more profitably than in rehearsing the varied features of this unavoidable annoyance? |
| 8554 | Why not occupy myself with something else and leave the weather for those who have no other resource? |
| 8554 | Why not simply drop the worry and the doubt without further argument? |
| 8554 | Why not tired and good- natured?" |
| 8554 | Why not try this every day? |
| 8554 | Why should we not treat our minds as well as our bodies? |
| 8554 | Why then should I allow my conduct to be influenced by such trivial matters? |
| 8554 | Why worry?" |
| 8554 | he answered,''No, I do n''t; where would be the use of that?''" |
| 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? |
| 30556 | Are you still awake? |
| 30556 | Did your mother perhaps in your childhood come to look after you with the light? |
| 30556 | Do you think for a moment that I would bear a grudge against the little innocent worm? 30556 Go, get some water, And wash this filthy witness from your hand.-- Why did you bring these daggers from the place? |
| 30556 | Had you at that time a great desire to play the piano? |
| 30556 | Is there anything more charming than this sixteen year old little house mother in her housekeeping activities? |
| 30556 | So? 30556 What do you say of imprisonment and ill foreboding? |
| 30556 | You huzzy,said he,"you might well see your three- legged stool in the sky, not? |
| 30556 | ''Are you looking at me?'' |
| 30556 | ''Dreamed-- dreamed-- oh Soelver, what have I dreamed? |
| 30556 | ''Gro, why do you never look at me?'' |
| 30556 | ''Is not tonight my bridal night? |
| 30556 | ''Now I shall be Mamma; Charles, do you want some more vegetables? |
| 30556 | --"Consciously or in a dream?" |
| 30556 | --"Did you not perhaps have the wish that your mother should look at her sick child in the night, as she once did when you were younger?" |
| 30556 | --"Did you think that you were indeed not a human being?" |
| 30556 | --"Did your mother call you, or did you come of yourself?" |
| 30556 | --"Do you see also in phantasy something that hangs down?" |
| 30556 | --"How is that?" |
| 30556 | --"How is that?" |
| 30556 | --"I have remonstrated rather seriously mother call you, or did you come of yourself?" |
| 30556 | --"No, my girl, you have too much imagination, which is bad for science.--What else do you see?" |
| 30556 | --"Of whom did he remind you?" |
| 30556 | --"To whom?" |
| 30556 | --"What about the warden of the prison?" |
| 30556 | --"What... you not well? |
| 30556 | --"You say''thou''[ du] to me?" |
| 30556 | --''And you see me?'' |
| 30556 | --''And you will stay with me?'' |
| 30556 | --''Are you afraid of me?'' |
| 30556 | --''Do you see me with your cheek, Gro?'' |
| 30556 | --''How long have you loved me?'' |
| 30556 | --''No, no-- why should I be afraid? |
| 30556 | --''Why have you not said so, Gro?'' |
| 30556 | --How is that?" |
| 30556 | --I believe that my mother call you, or did you come of yourself?" |
| 30556 | --What name to call her?" |
| 30556 | About the same time my sisters often sang the well- known song:''What sort of a wry face are you making, oh Moon?'' |
| 30556 | After I had said to myself for a long time''What, what?'' |
| 30556 | Am I asleep or am I awake? |
| 30556 | And how had he been able to command the virgin love fed by her slumber? |
| 30556 | And then in the second place, What value and significance must be attributed to the moon and its light? |
| 30556 | And when a bird flew by, she"flushed red at her own thought; was that a message sent forth by her desire? |
| 30556 | And you do not flee from me?" |
| 30556 | And you will still recognize me? |
| 30556 | Boiling things, like in our copper kettles? |
| 30556 | But how could Soelver have been the guest of her dreams? |
| 30556 | But what lay specially at the foundation of her earlier wandering, when no man had yet made an impression upon her? |
| 30556 | Could not a similar thought process have taken place with Maria? |
| 30556 | Elector and electress, and-- who is the third? |
| 30556 | Funny thing, slept badly? |
| 30556 | Have you been seeking the moon calves? |
| 30556 | Have you nothing to say yet?" |
| 30556 | How did it appear at this time to her, herself? |
| 30556 | How is it now since she loves Eisener? |
| 30556 | How is it then that the night''s rest, the guarding of which is always the goal of the dream, is motorially broken through in sleep walking? |
| 30556 | I always said to myself:''What, what then? |
| 30556 | I can only reply to this apparently justified phantasies of childhood?" |
| 30556 | In my twenty- ninth year I was awakened from a night wandering by the question, What did I want? |
| 30556 | In"Julius Cæsar,"Brutus murders his fatherly friend, his mother''s beloved("And thou too, my son Brutus?"). |
| 30556 | Is anything the matter?" |
| 30556 | Is not this behavior of the youth burning with desire peculiarly strange? |
| 30556 | Is this merely because the father is indissolubly bound with them? |
| 30556 | Joern agreed with him:"What will we come to, if the folk increase like that? |
| 30556 | Know you not then that I am of my free will Sten Basse''s guest?" |
| 30556 | Macbeth( alone):"Will all great Neptune''s ocean wash this blood Clean from my hand? |
| 30556 | Marry now? |
| 30556 | Marry? |
| 30556 | More difficult seems to me the answer to the second main question: What influence does the moon exercise upon the sleeper? |
| 30556 | Must I have dreamed-- an oppressive, frightful dream? |
| 30556 | Must not the inner meaning of all her sleep walking lie exactly in these two points, in which she has so completely turned about? |
| 30556 | Must not this hand, which causes this"horrible suffering"to the youth who had never yet known trouble, have touched his genitals? |
| 30556 | My friend and beloved brother, I fear what your look would draw from me-- what would you drag out from my soul?'' |
| 30556 | Now he meets old Dreier who gives him good advice:"How old are you? |
| 30556 | Only the princess''s glove recalls to him what has happened in his sleep:"What is this dream so strange that I have dreamed? |
| 30556 | Or was there perhaps one, in relation to whom sexuality is most strongly forbidden, her own father? |
| 30556 | She thinks wonderingly,"Whom is it he thus names?" |
| 30556 | She was astonished at the masses on it:"What are those? |
| 30556 | Should he let Gro sleep until day woke her and she saw herself in his arms? |
| 30556 | Since she could not yet entirely believe she asked,"Is it indeed you, Justin? |
| 30556 | Suddenly I heard my mother''s voice,''Mizzi, where are you?'' |
| 30556 | Suddenly my brother, the one who is well, with whom I do not have much to do, asked,''What are you thinking of?'' |
| 30556 | The false report has come that the elector father has been shot and Natalie laments,"Who will protect us from this world of foes?" |
| 30556 | The moon''s disk= the woman''s body? |
| 30556 | Twenty- four? |
| 30556 | Was it dream or reality, which he saw when he opened his eyes? |
| 30556 | Was this also a dream? |
| 30556 | What could this mean except that Maria now seemed big to him as once the mother had seemed to the small boy? |
| 30556 | What do you know of my dreams? |
| 30556 | What does it teach us for the understanding of moon walking? |
| 30556 | What drove Poldl so to the priestly calling, what made him so intent upon it? |
| 30556 | What had produced this sudden turn about? |
| 30556 | What had so thrown her out of her course? |
| 30556 | What if behind it there is fixed a memory perhaps of a scene with the mother, who brought him to his senses by seizing his arm? |
| 30556 | What if her erotic desire toward him was repressed and the indifference which she had attained was transferred over to all men? |
| 30556 | What lay in truth behind that unattainable goal that Kleist tried again and again to carry by force? |
| 30556 | What now? |
| 30556 | What truth is there in these viewpoints? |
| 30556 | What was this? |
| 30556 | When Macbeth announces,"Duncan comes here to- night,"she asks sinisterly,"And when goes hence?" |
| 30556 | When she questioned her nurse and the latter finally put it to her,"Have you spent no night under the same roof with Soelver?" |
| 30556 | Where, how and why?'' |
| 30556 | Who has called out this way?'' |
| 30556 | Who lately had arrived at our encampment?" |
| 30556 | Who was her child''s father? |
| 30556 | Why do all the memories of her childhood turn from her, if she actually knows herself guiltless? |
| 30556 | Why however does not the ruthless Macbeth live down the murder of the king as he does in the history? |
| 30556 | Why instead is he urged forth and driven to wander about and engage in all sorts of complicated acts? |
| 30556 | Why run away from me?" |
| 30556 | Why run away from me?" |
| 30556 | Why then the father''s acquiescence? |
| 30556 | Why was this stranger here near her, the man whom her dead father had tortured and derided? |
| 30556 | Will you be able to sleep?" |
| 30556 | Yet how does the child reach such a depth of depravity as to wish his parents dead? |
| 30556 | Yet what does this say? |
| 30556 | [ 15] Phantasy of the mother''s body? |
| 30556 | [ 19] Has not the bringing in of these animals and of the word mooncalves a hidden closeness of meaning? |
| 30556 | a soldier, and afear''d? |
| 30556 | and Who lately had arrived at our encampment?'' |
| 30556 | how had I then come out? |
| 30556 | phantasies of childhood? |
| 23820 | Are you rich? 23820 Can anything that it sends be amiss? |
| 23820 | Can man by searching find out God? |
| 23820 | Can the divine will err? |
| 23820 | Do we not all wish that we could live our lives over again in the light of our present experience? |
| 23820 | How shall I seem to love my people? |
| 23820 | Out of politics, triumphs, battles, life, what at last finally remains? 23820 Seek you,"said a devout Catholic priest,"the secret of union with God? |
| 23820 | What is the happy life? |
| 23820 | What shall it profit a man,He well said,"if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" |
| 23820 | You desire to''serve humanity,''do you? |
| 23820 | ''Where are you?'' |
| 23820 | Again, are the daily occurrences of life pre- destined? |
| 23820 | All over the state the tourist is asked,"Have you seen Greeley? |
| 23820 | All that made life worth the living has been inexplicably withdrawn; and how, then, shall he live? |
| 23820 | And how? |
| 23820 | And so the question comes,--What do they mean? |
| 23820 | And the remedy lies,--where? |
| 23820 | And what is the life of the spirit? |
| 23820 | And_ why_ shall he live? |
| 23820 | But is gold the test of success? |
| 23820 | But what is humanity? |
| 23820 | But what is it to live? |
| 23820 | Can he be happy if he has lost all his worldly goods? |
| 23820 | Can he be happy if he has lost all his worldly goods? |
| 23820 | Can its infinite value be increased by the paltry difference of time, place, or circumstance? |
| 23820 | Can not even denial and defeat be held as developing qualities that might otherwise lie latent? |
| 23820 | Can the individual be happy, he will ask, when all that made happiness is taken away? |
| 23820 | Can the individual be happy, he will ask, when all that made happiness is taken away? |
| 23820 | Can we not relate our consciously intelligent life to our unconscious spiritual life? |
| 23820 | Can you forsake it for abstract literature?" |
| 23820 | Catholic or Protestant,--what matters it so that one who listens may hear the word? |
| 23820 | Comprising: WHAT LACKS THE SUMMER? |
| 23820 | Do not the interruptions assume a new form, and are they not, thereby, transfigured into glad and golden opportunity? |
| 23820 | Do thoughts register themselves magnetically on the air, and is this magnetic writing perceived, unconsciously, by one sensitive to it? |
| 23820 | Does it lose this power by the change called death? |
| 23820 | Does not the environment change with the life in a corresponding evolutionary process? |
| 23820 | Does one prefer to go down hill into some dark ravine or deep mountain gorge? |
| 23820 | Does the gate of possibilities, does the door of opportunity close with this brief mortal life? |
| 23820 | Does the road wind up hill? |
| 23820 | Does the vibration of the spoken word linger in the place where it is uttered? |
| 23820 | For himself alone, what does he want that money, mere money, can buy? |
| 23820 | For is not the underlying and fundamental truth this: that all is spirit? |
| 23820 | Has one been wronged, or misrepresented, or in any way injured? |
| 23820 | Have you eyes to find the five Which five hundred did survive? |
| 23820 | Here are an array of interruptions, but why not give them another name-- that of opportunities? |
| 23820 | Heretofore poet and prophet have always questioned despondently,--"Does the road wind up hill all the way?" |
| 23820 | How does this occur? |
| 23820 | How far do we make our own life? |
| 23820 | How far is it made for us? |
| 23820 | How is he to endure it? |
| 23820 | How is he to go on, living his life, in all this pain, perplexity, trial, or annoyance, much less to"glory"in this atmosphere of tribulation? |
| 23820 | How shall the perfect spiritual supremacy be established? |
| 23820 | If one encounters disaster or great personal sorrow, what then? |
| 23820 | If psychological only, what does that mean? |
| 23820 | If the physical universe can be so increasingly explored, shall not the spiritual universe be also penetrated by the spiritual powers of man? |
| 23820 | If this be true of resignation, what shall be said of tribulation,--of glorying in tribulation? |
| 23820 | If this deduction is true-- what then? |
| 23820 | Instead, what does the tourist see? |
| 23820 | Is every life just that which it is made? |
| 23820 | Is it a physical process going on in some physical medium or ether connecting the two brains? |
| 23820 | Is it a primary physiological function of the brain, or is it primarily psychological? |
| 23820 | Is it not this which is set before us in the progress of spirituality? |
| 23820 | Is it not, after all, composed of individuals? |
| 23820 | Is it not, then, true that a life really belongs to the environment it creates for himself, rather than to that in which it is first nurtured? |
| 23820 | Is not the life more than meat? |
| 23820 | Is not the next step in scientific progress to be into the invisible and the unknown? |
| 23820 | Is there no Roentgen ray that will pierce the horizon of the future and disclose to us what lies beyond? |
| 23820 | Is there not, then, a need for the gospel of one''s own endeavor? |
| 23820 | Is this power only inherent in the physical structure? |
| 23820 | Is this"The Country God Forgot"? |
| 23820 | Is thought, itself, photographed on the ether? |
| 23820 | Just how shall one be well and keep well? |
| 23820 | Just what is the explanation? |
| 23820 | May they not teach the divinest lesson of all,--the one most invaluable to human life,--absolute trust in God? |
| 23820 | Might not one, with profit, dwell for a moment upon this statement? |
| 23820 | Nor what indeed is more reasonable, more perfect, more divine, than the will of God? |
| 23820 | Nothing could withstand its consuming power.... And what makes this stupendous force? |
| 23820 | Now how are we to pluck out the heart of the mystery? |
| 23820 | Now the scientific question is: From whence did this impression proceed? |
| 23820 | Now,--always provided that there is full conviction of immortality,--why should it be wrong to seek his companionship or counsel from the unseen life? |
| 23820 | One asks for them-- and they do not come? |
| 23820 | Or does there work, under all our human will and endeavor, a force resistless as gravitation and as constant as attraction? |
| 23820 | Or is he the product of his environment? |
| 23820 | Shall Phillips Brooks, the friend and helper and wise counsellor when here, be less so now that he has entered into the next higher scale of being? |
| 23820 | Shall he do it? |
| 23820 | Shall not one rejoice and recognize that the need of another is brought as a privilege to himself? |
| 23820 | Shall we not enter to- day into the very joy of the Lord? |
| 23820 | Shall we not enter to- day into this kingdom of heaven which is at hand? |
| 23820 | Shall you make his life and your own a burden with complaint and reproach? |
| 23820 | Should not the minister break off his morning meditation-- an abstract thing, at best-- to see me, who needs an immediate infusion of encouragement?" |
| 23820 | Strictly speaking, perhaps, no one of these has any real right to thus tax the time and energy of a stranger; but is there not another side to it? |
| 23820 | The cry of certain reformers(?) |
| 23820 | The problem, then, becomes that of bringing the psychical body into this receptive relation to the physical self? |
| 23820 | The question confronts one as a very determining problem in life,--can man control his circumstances? |
| 23820 | Then what remains? |
| 23820 | To go deeper still, can he create them? |
| 23820 | To see the future as clearly as we see the past, what does it require? |
| 23820 | To what extent should he yield to the"devastator of the day"? |
| 23820 | Was all this series of events-- trifles of no importance in themselves, but very curious in their combination-- foreordained? |
| 23820 | Was his life thereby a failure? |
| 23820 | Was it a clairvoyant reading of the letter that was en route during the night? |
| 23820 | Was it direct telepathy between the two persons concerned? |
| 23820 | What has he to do with that far- away, opaque, limited environment into which he was born? |
| 23820 | What is a book compared to a human soul? |
| 23820 | What is distance to the spiritual being? |
| 23820 | What then? |
| 23820 | What then? |
| 23820 | What though the bough beneath thee break? |
| 23820 | What value shall I give to those transformation experiences?" |
| 23820 | When shows break up what but one''s self is sure?" |
| 23820 | When shows break up, what but one''s self is sure?" |
| 23820 | Who can contemplate wireless telegraphy without having opened to him a range of activities and conditions undreamed of heretofore? |
| 23820 | Who can decide? |
| 23820 | Who has won the triumph''s evidence-- Pilate or Christ? |
| 23820 | Who would relinquish a right purpose because its achievement were hard? |
| 23820 | Why is it not visible? |
| 23820 | Why need you choose so painfully your place, and occupation, and associates, and modes of action and of entertainment? |
| 23820 | Will this theory furnish the basis for a true interpretation of telepathy? |
| 23820 | Without its own sustenance from the spiritual world, how could it survive? |
| 23820 | Yet where does the remedy lie? |
| 23820 | Yet, is there not just here a richness of opportunity in the aim to"do good to all men"that may often be unrecognized? |
| 23820 | Yet, with his personal world in ruins, what shall he do? |
| 23820 | _ Would he take a message?_ Just as lief as not; had nothing else to do; would carry it in no time. |
| 23820 | and if not, how was it that they were partly perceived, in the passive state of sleep, twenty- four hours before they occurred? |
| 23820 | or if death has taken those nearest and dearest to him? |
| 23820 | or if death has taken those nearest and dearest to him? |
| 23820 | or if the separations of life, far harder to bear than those of death, have come into his experience with their almost hopeless sense of desolation? |
| 23820 | or if the separations of life, far harder to bear than those of death, have come to him? |
| 23820 | rich enough to help somebody?" |
| 43346 | ''How?'' 43346 But how,"said I,"when morning comes, shall I know that your appearance to me has been real, and not the mere representation of my own imagination?" |
| 43346 | For Heaven''s sake,I exclaimed,"Lord Tyrone, by what means or for what reason came you hither at this time of night?" |
| 43346 | Have you then forgotten our promise? |
| 43346 | I may, then, infer that you are happy? |
| 43346 | May I not ask,said I,"if you are happy?" |
| 43346 | This gentleman then adjured the spirit in a variety of forms, and asked if it was not a bad spirit? 43346 What is the matter?" |
| 43346 | Will not the news of my death be sufficient to convince you? |
| 43346 | ''Do you believe,''said I,''that Christ died to save us from sin?'' |
| 43346 | ''Do you expect letters?'' |
| 43346 | ''In God''s Name, what do you want, or what can I do for you?'' |
| 43346 | ''In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,''said I,''are you the spirit of my child?'' |
| 43346 | ''In what shape shall it be?'' |
| 43346 | ''Well,''said a clergyman, one of the three,''I wonder, after all, if there is any future state or not?'' |
| 43346 | --"What of the Dead? |
| 43346 | 33?'' |
| 43346 | 35.--''While your body was lying in the coffin, was anything put in the hand? |
| 43346 | 36.--''What was it?'' |
| 43346 | 37.--''By whom was it put there?'' |
| 43346 | 38.--''Who else were present at the time?'' |
| 43346 | :--''Where was your body buried?'' |
| 43346 | :--''Will you spell the name of the place where we lived when you left this state?'' |
| 43346 | And tell me, most potent seigniors, what is the origin of these forces? |
| 43346 | And with whom resides the impulse of their action and the guidance of their control? |
| 43346 | Are you a bad spirit? |
| 43346 | Are you happy? |
| 43346 | But still, a thoughtful mind will venture to demand whence did these atoms derive their existence? |
| 43346 | By fire? |
| 43346 | Can we do you any good? |
| 43346 | Days? |
| 43346 | Did they make them feel them? |
| 43346 | Did they see them? |
| 43346 | Did you know any at this table? |
| 43346 | Did you live in this neighbourhood? |
| 43346 | Do you mean five days? |
| 43346 | Dr. Edmunds:"How were the names spelled out?" |
| 43346 | Has the spirit of my child_ ever_ been put in communication with myself or her mother through this or any other table?'' |
| 43346 | Have you been dead years? |
| 43346 | He inquired further, whether there was any of their old acquaintance in that place where he was? |
| 43346 | He then asked her if she had hurt her wrist:''Have you sprained it?'' |
| 43346 | How could any one be afraid of me? |
| 43346 | How did they know they were there? |
| 43346 | How long have you been dead? |
| 43346 | How many? |
| 43346 | I asked,''Are you my child?'' |
| 43346 | I exclaimed,"and can not I prevent this?" |
| 43346 | I had offered a glass of wine and water to my wife, when, on putting it to her lips, she paused and exclaimed,''Good God, what is that?'' |
| 43346 | I then said,''Are you from God?'' |
| 43346 | I then said,''In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, I command you to answer-- are you from God?'' |
| 43346 | In how many years? |
| 43346 | In the reign of her successor? |
| 43346 | Is he alive or dead? |
| 43346 | Is it displeasing to God? |
| 43346 | Is it the woman''s spirit, or the man''s, who haunts the house? |
| 43346 | Is it what the Bible calls"divination"to consult you in this way? |
| 43346 | Is it wrong? |
| 43346 | Is there a middle state of souls? |
| 43346 | It was followed by another:--''What was the name of the person whose spirit is here?'' |
| 43346 | Months? |
| 43346 | Shall any of us see the Last Day? |
| 43346 | Similar strange phenomena occurred on this occasion likewise:--"Are you a Spirit who inhabited this earth? |
| 43346 | The end of wickedness? |
| 43346 | Then how did the spirits make themselves known-- by what means? |
| 43346 | Was the Baptist religion true? |
| 43346 | Was the man hung? |
| 43346 | Was the murder found out while he lived? |
| 43346 | Weeks? |
| 43346 | Were you ever there? |
| 43346 | What frightened them? |
| 43346 | What killed the two people in the haunted room? |
| 43346 | What kind of spirits? |
| 43346 | What was the name of the woman? |
| 43346 | Who could it have been?'' |
| 43346 | Who murdered her? |
| 43346 | Who was murdered, a man or a woman? |
| 43346 | Why do those spirits haunt that house? |
| 43346 | Will Enoch and Elijah come again? |
| 43346 | Will Russia conquer England? |
| 43346 | Will it be in the reign of Queen Victoria? |
| 43346 | Will it be partly destroyed by fire? |
| 43346 | Will it be the end of the World or the end of wickedness? |
| 43346 | Will that be the Millennium? |
| 43346 | Will the Jews be restored? |
| 43346 | Will the Last Judgment be then? |
| 43346 | Will the World be destroyed by water? |
| 43346 | Will the end of the World be soon? |
| 43346 | Will you point them out? |
| 43346 | Will you spell the true religion? |
| 43346 | Will you spell your name? |
| 43346 | and from what, and from whom, do they inherit the propensities wherewithal they are imbued? |
| 43346 | he exclaimed at length,''am I awake or asleep, in my senses or gone mad?'' |
| 43346 | my dear uncle, how could the spirit of a living man appear?'' |

| 37203 | Have you arrived? |
| 37203 | How is your head? |
| 37203 | I replied,''Yes; is he thin or fat?'' 37203 Is it the will of a living person or of an immaterial spirit? |
| 37203 | Mr. W.''We do n''t know J. G. Have you anything to do with us?'' 37203 Mrs. R. asked,''Are you a man or a woman?'' |
| 37203 | Now, how did I come to have my looms and driving- gear arranged in this particular way? 37203 Now, what do you think of such a vision as that? |
| 37203 | Of what does he write? |
| 37203 | Old Governor Stuyvesant? |
| 37203 | Seventeenth of what? |

| 37203 | Why the mischief have you been so late? |
| 37203 | ''Is that all?'' |
| 37203 | ''Well,''I said;''how much do you want for that piece of property you wish to sell?'' |

| 37203 | Can these statements be received as true and reliable? |
| 37203 | Do n''t you see? |
| 37203 | Do you see the picture?" |
| 37203 | Does he remember who were present and what was going on? |
| 37203 | Fairly studied, then, what does Planchette really do? |
| 37203 | Frank replied,''What do you mean?'' |
| 37203 | Frank said,''Where is he?'' |
| 37203 | Has Hypnotism any actual standing either in science or common sense? |

| 37203 | How much money do you owe?'' |
| 37203 | How stupid''the other one''looked while I took her apron off? |
| 37203 | I had screamed and struggled, crying out,''Is he really dead?'' |
| 37203 | I said:"Yes; but how did you know she was here?" |
| 37203 | If so, who?" |
| 37203 | Is it one of my patients?" |
| 37203 | Is there any possible truth in it? |
| 37203 | Mr. W. asked,''What does the drawing represent?'' |
| 37203 | On my replying in the affirmative he said,''Can you mesmerize any one at a distance?'' |

| 37203 | Truly what is this tenant, what are its powers, and why is it here at all? |
| 37203 | We first heard a faint cry of''Mother''; we all looked up and said to one another,''Did you hear that? |

| 37203 | What part did you think of first? |
| 37203 | What part did you think of first? |
| 37203 | What was the character of the apparitions or appearances which were presented; were they, properly speaking, dreams? |
| 37203 | Where am I?" |
| 37203 | Which of us is right? |
| 37203 | Who is it there talking to me like that?" |
| 37203 | Why did you leave so suddenly? |
| 37203 | Why did you tell her that her apron was falling off? |
| 37203 | Why do you look so frightened?'' |
| 37203 | Why should two of those present have seen his apparition, and two others have failed to see it? |
| 37203 | With evident surprise he said:"What do you mean?" |
| 37203 | You looked distressed, and in answer to my greeting and inquiry,''What''s the matter?'' |
| 37203 | said the doctor;"from what are you suffering?" |
| 37203 | wo n''t you sit down?'' |
| 37203 | you said:''Are you taking your dinner? |
| 37203 | |"Yellow... is it a||| feather?... |
| 18233 | ''Seen what before?" |
| 18233 | ''But ca n''t he be stopped?'' 18233 ''Charlie,''she cried,''what''s that mark on his cheek? |
| 18233 | ''Do n''t you see the cat, James?'' 18233 ''Do you know?'' |
| 18233 | ''I wonder why she told me not to sleep on the left side of the bed?'' 18233 ''In which category are you included?'' |
| 18233 | ''Is it as bad as that?'' 18233 ''Is it the meaning of it you''re wanting to know?'' |
| 18233 | ''The farmer asked,Had I never heard of what happened to the Miller of L---- Mills about forty years ago?" |
| 18233 | ''These?'' 18233 ''Was it a white cat, ma''am?'' |
| 18233 | ''What do you mean?'' 18233 ''What has happened? |
| 18233 | ''Where did she go, James?'' 18233 ''Where?'' |
| 18233 | ''Why the white tiger?'' 18233 An ugly sound, was n''t it? |
| 18233 | And what are your deductions of the case? |
| 18233 | And you feel sure she was murdered? |
| 18233 | Are you sure the house is n''t haunted? |
| 18233 | But why so cheap? |
| 18233 | Did the matter end there? |
| 18233 | Did you see the marks on the woman? |
| 18233 | Do n''t you see it is as much as I can do to hold the brute in? 18233 Do you mean to say you ca n''t see a dog''s face and eyes looking straight at us?" |
| 18233 | Do you mean to say,I cried,"that you can see no figure walking on my side of the horse and actually keeping pace with it?" |
| 18233 | Does she often do this? |
| 18233 | Everything in good condition? |
| 18233 | Had Mr. Dance any dogs? |
| 18233 | Has anyone ever spoken to it? |
| 18233 | Have you made a discovery? |
| 18233 | How could you know that? |
| 18233 | How do I know? 18233 How long was he there?" |
| 18233 | I understand,Mr. Baldwin responded,"but-- er-- it is rather late now; would n''t you prefer to see over it in the morning? |
| 18233 | Is it always as quiet and deserted as this? |
| 18233 | Jack,she said,"are you sure there''s nothing in it? |
| 18233 | Loneliness the only thing people object to? |
| 18233 | Nor secret lovers? |
| 18233 | Then why do n''t you have it now? |
| 18233 | Try what? |
| 18233 | Water? |
| 18233 | What on earth is he looking at? |
| 18233 | What was that? |
| 18233 | What-- she is still unburied? |
| 18233 | Where is he now? |
| 18233 | Who the deuce is he? |
| 18233 | Who was the last tenant? |
| 18233 | Who? 18233 Why did he leave?" |
| 18233 | You have n''t got any ghosts stowed away there, have you? |
| 18233 | You know Bruges? |
| 18233 | ''And how about the house-- is it haunted too?'' |
| 18233 | ''Do n''t you see? |
| 18233 | ''How so?'' |
| 18233 | ''Is n''t he a beauty? |
| 18233 | ''Is there any history attached to it?'' |
| 18233 | ''It''s not Volki, is it?'' |
| 18233 | ''My God, will this dream never cease?'' |
| 18233 | ''The jackals, did you see them? |
| 18233 | ''What do you want?'' |
| 18233 | ''What does it mean?'' |
| 18233 | ''Why,''said D.,''how do you know anything about all this? |
| 18233 | ''You used to quibble me upon my dull wits; must I now return the compliment? |
| 18233 | ( Who is it?). |
| 18233 | (_ Jew of Malta._)"Is it not ominous in all countries where crows and ravens croak upon trees?" |
| 18233 | *****"And is that all?" |
| 18233 | A coffin? |
| 18233 | A small hyaena? |
| 18233 | All the way back to the town I thought-- should I, or should I not, take the house? |
| 18233 | And if human murderers and their victims have phantasms, why should not animals have phantasms too? |
| 18233 | And the picture? |
| 18233 | And was it likely that now, when my ideas were misty and vague, I should be more successful? |
| 18233 | And why not? |
| 18233 | And yet if neither of them had killed Anderson, who in God''s name had killed him? |
| 18233 | And yet-- well, there were extenuating circumstances, were n''t there?'' |
| 18233 | And, Good God, what was that that was falling with it-- that huge black object? |
| 18233 | And-- Anderson? |
| 18233 | Are you well versed in the cry of birds? |
| 18233 | As they approached, I knowing they could not get to any place other than my own, called out in Hindustani,''Quon hai?'' |
| 18233 | But by whom? |
| 18233 | But if the astral body has been evicted from its carnal home, whither has it gone? |
| 18233 | But what were the phantasms of the ape and cat? |
| 18233 | But where? |
| 18233 | Ca n''t we leave the house at once?'' |
| 18233 | Can it presage wealth or death? |
| 18233 | Can you tell me, or, better still, show me, the way to some house where I can put up for the remainder of the night?'' |
| 18233 | Can you therefore imagine my feelings when my darling was absent one day from dinner? |
| 18233 | Can your lordship spare the time to listen?'' |
| 18233 | Could I not intercept the figures, drive them back? |
| 18233 | Dare I take a house that knew such visitors? |
| 18233 | Did n''t we say so?" |
| 18233 | Do you know what it is?'' |
| 18233 | Do you remember how you used to make me stretch mine? |
| 18233 | Do you think I am a nervous, easily frightened sort of man?'' |
| 18233 | Drains all right?" |
| 18233 | For if human tragedies are re- enacted by ghosts, why not animal tragedies too? |
| 18233 | Has a cat insight into the future? |
| 18233 | Has he had a fit, or what? |
| 18233 | Has he left no address?" |
| 18233 | He and others put this question to me:"Are you sure you were not asleep and had the nightmare?" |
| 18233 | However, as space does not permit of this, I proceed to the oft- raised question,"Do animals as well as people project themselves?" |
| 18233 | Hurt? |
| 18233 | I believe it is-- I believe that in this psychic faculty of smell lies, in degree, the solution to the oft- asked riddle-- why is the cat uncanny? |
| 18233 | I cried,"do you mean to say you can see no dog?" |
| 18233 | I exclaimed simultaneously with my friends"What was that?" |
| 18233 | I said,''How very stout he had become lately, and what possessed him to allow his beard to grow with that horrid fringe?'' |
| 18233 | I wonder if it would let me stroke it?'' |
| 18233 | In halcyon days like these who thinks of ghosts and death? |
| 18233 | Is she all right?'' |
| 18233 | It was just an ordinary tree then, but now, now-- and what is that-- that sinister bundle-- suspended from one of its curling branches? |
| 18233 | It was not Kitty, the grey Persian, but darker, and was it really a cat, or what? |
| 18233 | May I come with you?" |
| 18233 | Mr. Anderson has been murdered, and the question is-- by whom?'' |
| 18233 | Nothing but songs of death?" |
| 18233 | Oh, Poppa, naughty Poppa, what will mum say?" |
| 18233 | One of the men cried out,''Heavens, Bill, what''s that?'' |
| 18233 | Or may not both causes have had their effect? |
| 18233 | Should Beryl-- Beryl whom I loved next best to my wife-- be torn from me even as Dick and Hal had been? |
| 18233 | Tell me, what can the dying curse of a leper do?'' |
| 18233 | The house has been empty all that time?" |
| 18233 | The old man said:"''"For many years I have known thee, M----, on this road, and have you never seen the like before on that cross?" |
| 18233 | The whole Thing, but what was that Thing? |
| 18233 | There was no answer, and on they came until right in front of me, when I said, in English,''Hullo, what the d----l do you want here?'' |
| 18233 | WHAT is it? |
| 18233 | Were they the earth- bound spirits of the highwayman and his horse, or simply the spirits of two animals? |
| 18233 | What could it be? |
| 18233 | What did it all mean? |
| 18233 | What is it?" |
| 18233 | What sort of noises were they?'' |
| 18233 | What was hiding there? |
| 18233 | What was it? |
| 18233 | What was it? |
| 18233 | What was that?" |
| 18233 | What would it do if it overtook us? |
| 18233 | What''s the matter with the Dean? |
| 18233 | What''s the matter?'' |
| 18233 | Who has the rooms on either side of you?'' |
| 18233 | Who is it? |
| 18233 | Who knows but that, in your future life, you may be as they are now-- in subjection? |
| 18233 | Who or what could it be? |
| 18233 | Why did n''t you come by the door?'' |
| 18233 | Why do you wish to know?" |
| 18233 | Why should not the phenomenon of the cat seen by Mrs. Hartnoll and the Wheelers have been the actual phantasm of an earthbound cat? |
| 18233 | Why? |
| 18233 | With Dora, however, it was otherwise, and she electrified us by going up to the figure, and exclaiming:"Who are you? |
| 18233 | Would it spring out on me if I went to see? |
| 18233 | Yet with what? |
| 18233 | You ai n''t used to the country?" |
| 18233 | You know that portrait stuck over his mantel- shelf? |
| 18233 | You remember that street? |
| 18233 | and what is the nature of the thing that has taken its place? |
| 18233 | but it was very alarming, was n''t it?'' |
| 18233 | she said''I have lived here happy and comfortable forty- five years the day after to- morrow, and that speaks for itself, do n''t it?'' |
| 18233 | what?" |
| 13143 | But ye are the salt of the earth; but if the salt have lost its savor wherewith shall it be salted? 13143 But,"you may ask,"what of the Messianic Prophecy mentioned by Matthew( 1:23)? |
| 13143 | Then of John the Baptist-- was he a reincarnation of Elijah, the prophet, who was to come again? 13143 This is my Beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased"--what meant these words? |
| 13143 | What seek ye of me? |
| 13143 | ''Who did sin, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?'' |
| 13143 | (_ John 9:1- 3._) Surely there can be no mistake about the meaning of this question,"Who did sin, this man or his parents?" |
| 13143 | ***** In view of this explanation, does not the commonly accepted version seem childish and crude? |
| 13143 | --for how could a man sin before his birth, unless he had lived in a previous incarnation? |
| 13143 | Again:"Might I not write to you things more full of mystery? |
| 13143 | And He knew full well all that awaited Him there, for had He not seen the First Picture? |
| 13143 | And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also?" |
| 13143 | And his disciples asked him, saying,''Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind?'' |
| 13143 | And how shall we escape the declaration,''Is there respect of persons with God?'' |
| 13143 | And if so, what must be His course of life and action? |
| 13143 | And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? |
| 13143 | And now with this Mystic version, can not_ you_ enjoy the legend with the children? |
| 13143 | And now, you ask, what were taught in these Christian Mysteries-- what is the Inner Teaching-- what the Secret Doctrine? |
| 13143 | And our query is-- Sinned_ before_ he was born to deserve the penalty of being born blind? |
| 13143 | And several asked Him in turn, in a tone of reproach,"Is it I?" |
| 13143 | And still we hear the querulous complaint that the Inner Teaching is reserved for the Few-- why not scatter it broadcast among the people? |
| 13143 | And they wondered as they worked and asked each other"What manner of man is this, whom even the winds and the waters obey?" |
| 13143 | And where are the souls of these dead bodies now residing and abiding pending the coming of the Last Day? |
| 13143 | And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life? |
| 13143 | And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? |
| 13143 | And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother''s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? |
| 13143 | And, now, what are the Occult Teachings-- the Secret Doctrine-- regarding the Real Virgin Birth of Jesus? |
| 13143 | Are not ye of much more value than they? |
| 13143 | Are the souls of the dead with their bodies? |
| 13143 | As they approached Him He called out,"Whom seek ye?" |
| 13143 | Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? |
| 13143 | But still what meant that expression-- why that leap and throbbing of her heart? |
| 13143 | But why should I repeat and enumerate all the horrors of human misery? |
| 13143 | Can there be any doubt of this after reading the above words from his pen? |
| 13143 | Can there be any doubt regarding the same in a mind willing to think for itself? |
| 13143 | Can you not see which is The Truth and which is the perversion? |
| 13143 | Could the Divine Genius once self- recognized be content to be obscured amid material pursuits? |
| 13143 | Did not the Magi say,"Where is He? |
| 13143 | Did this stranger dare to defy God''s own decree? |
| 13143 | Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? |
| 13143 | Do not even the Gentiles the same? |
| 13143 | Do not even the publicans the same? |
| 13143 | Do the angels have physical bodies? |
| 13143 | Do you remember St. Paul''s remark,''Be not deceived, God is not mocked; whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap''? |
| 13143 | Does not one''s own heart tell him the contrary? |
| 13143 | Does not the Mystic teaching give a clearer light on this statement of the Creed? |
| 13143 | Does not the agony of the cross sink into insignificance beside such spiritual agony? |
| 13143 | Does the church wish to hold that the Master was also an ignorant, credulous peasant, sharing popular superstitions? |
| 13143 | Even one of the crucified criminals reviled Him, asking Him why He did not save Himself and them? |
| 13143 | For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? |
| 13143 | For is it not written that"the Kingdom of Heaven is within you"? |
| 13143 | Had not even the Healer declared that she only slept? |
| 13143 | Had she not anointed Him with precious oil, as the host would have anointed an honored guest? |
| 13143 | Had she not bathed and dried His feet, as the Pharisee would have done had his guest been deemed worthy of honor? |
| 13143 | Had she not impressed upon even His feet the kiss that etiquette required the host to impress upon the cheek of the esteemed visitor to his house? |
| 13143 | Had the Master lost His senses? |
| 13143 | Had the idea of re- incarnation been repugnant to the teachings, would not He have denounced it to His disciples? |
| 13143 | He felt that He had come to a most important phase of His life''s work, and the question of"What Am I?" |
| 13143 | He says:"It may be said that in the present day these doctrines are simply not taught in the churches; how is that? |
| 13143 | Here is the testimony in all of the standard reference books, and yet how many of you have known it? |
| 13143 | How dared He so mock the very presence of the dead, whom the physicians had left, and over whom the priests had already begun the last sacred rites? |
| 13143 | How few are they who find their way to the Realization of their own Divinity? |
| 13143 | If all the world of objective life and manifestation, even to its highest forms, were withdrawn from manifestation, then there would be left-- what? |
| 13143 | If not, why should souls require them on higher planes? |
| 13143 | If not, why the necessity of a physical body at all, in the future life? |
| 13143 | In the name of Truth, is the teaching, that_ man is a spiritual being_, inconsistent with the teachings of Christ and the records of the Scripture? |
| 13143 | Is it not a worthy one-- is it not at least a higher conception of the human mind, than the physical Virgin Birth legend? |
| 13143 | Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? |
| 13143 | Is not this the extreme refinement of torture? |
| 13143 | Is the beautiful babe, held close in its mother''s fond embrace, a symbol and type of impurity? |
| 13143 | Is the watchful care and love of the Father of the babe, an impure result of an impure cause? |
| 13143 | Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works? |
| 13143 | Of this event the New Testament takes note in these words:"But John forbade him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?" |
| 13143 | Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me cast out the mote out of thine eye, and lo, the beam is in thine own eye? |
| 13143 | Or this,''Is there unrighteousness with God?'' |
| 13143 | Or what man is there of you who if his son ask him for a loaf will give him a stone, or if he shall ask for a fish will give him a serpent? |
| 13143 | Or what shall we drink? |
| 13143 | Or wherewithal shall we be clothed? |
| 13143 | Saw Him again? |
| 13143 | Speaking of teaching founded upon historical narrative, he says,''What better method could be devised to assist the masses?'' |
| 13143 | The crowd asked Him why He who saved others could not save Himself? |
| 13143 | Then Caiaphas asked Him the all- important question,"Art thou the Christ?" |
| 13143 | Then asked the Master,"Where have you laid him away?" |
| 13143 | Then cried the people,"What saith this man to the corpse?" |
| 13143 | Then he asked, with his newly acquired air of authority,"Why sought ye me?" |
| 13143 | Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? |
| 13143 | Then what can it be? |
| 13143 | Then what is this Spirit of Life? |
| 13143 | Then why persist in treating it as a thing imported from India, Egypt or Persia to disturb the peaceful slumber of the Christian Church? |
| 13143 | They felt His body, and saw Him eat-- but what of that? |
| 13143 | Was He destined to throw aside the robe and staff of the ascetic, and to don the royal purple and the sceptre? |
| 13143 | Was He indeed the long- expected Deliverer of Israel? |
| 13143 | Was He the Messiah? |
| 13143 | Was He to forsake the role of the spiritual guide and teacher, and to become the King and Ruler over the people of Israel? |
| 13143 | We wonder if our readers can realize, even faintly, just what this sacrifice meant? |
| 13143 | Were the ancient laws of Moses to be thus defied by this presumptuous Nazarene, whose religious ideas were sadly lacking in orthodoxy? |
| 13143 | What did the Nazarene mean? |
| 13143 | What had you to fear?" |
| 13143 | What is meant by the words,"We have seen his star in the East"? |
| 13143 | What is the use of a soul, if the physical bodies of the dead are to be resurrected in order that their owners may enjoy immortality? |
| 13143 | What manner of people were these to whom He had decided to deliver the Message of Life? |
| 13143 | What new fraudulent marvels would He not work next in order to delude the credulous people and to bring them once more around his rebellious standard? |
| 13143 | What was to be done? |
| 13143 | When and how did he spend those seventeen years? |
| 13143 | When this truth is known, how puerile and petty seems the myth of the"traveling star"of the commonly accepted exoteric version? |
| 13143 | Which brings the greater approval from The Christ within your heart? |
| 13143 | Which is the true spiritual teaching? |
| 13143 | Which of the two conceptions seems most in accord with the intuitive promptings of the Something Within? |
| 13143 | Who touched my garment?" |
| 13143 | Why does He perpetually use the technical terms connected with the well known mystery- teaching of antiquity? |
| 13143 | Why should this be?" |
| 13143 | Why the frequent and repeated mention of Jesus as"the Son of God?" |
| 13143 | Why was it not reasonable that He was to lead the Chosen People to their own? |
| 13143 | Will the owners of aged, worn out bodies be compelled to re- assume them at the Last Day? |
| 13143 | Will you accept it? |
| 13143 | Would it have been any wonder had even such a man as Jesus succumbed? |
| 13143 | Would not the Master, having found his strength and power, have insisted upon developing the same? |
| 13143 | you ask? |
| 39718 | A shark? |
| 39718 | Ah, yes, how did they know? |
| 39718 | At the time? |
| 39718 | But how could they know New Zealand was there? |
| 39718 | Can you tell me anything of the action? |
| 39718 | Do you believe it is true? |
| 39718 | Had they compasses? |
| 39718 | Have you noticed a tree covered in spider webs during a fog? 39718 Have you seen the devil?" |
| 39718 | Supernatural? |
| 39718 | Tell us, friend, did you find it on the other side as you had preached? |
| 39718 | The Maoris had a fair wind then? |
| 39718 | Well, did you perceive resemblance? |
| 39718 | Well, did you, for example, see Christ? |
| 39718 | What bird is it? |
| 39718 | What do you mean? |
| 39718 | What have we to do,they say,"with these old historical quarrels which are hardly intelligible to us? |
| 39718 | What is this ribald nonsense? |
| 39718 | What''s psychic? 39718 Where did it come from?" |
| 39718 | Who are you, friend? |
| 39718 | Why not? |
| 39718 | You mean fairies and things? |
| 39718 | You''re sure it was Sir Oliver? |
| 39718 | ''Who''s that?'' |
| 39718 | Above all, how did the birds get into the carefully- guarded seance room, especially as Bailey was put in a bag during the proceedings? |
| 39718 | After all, how much education had the apostles? |
| 39718 | After all, if enemies are given full play, why should not friends redress the balance? |
| 39718 | Among other remarkable advertisements was one"What has become of''Pelorus Jack''? |
| 39718 | And the others? |
| 39718 | Are they not the pools left behind by that terrible tide? |
| 39718 | But after all, what''s the odds? |
| 39718 | But how can anyone win through? |
| 39718 | But what has a materialist to say to the whole story? |
| 39718 | But what have Spiritualists had in the main save misrepresentation and persecution? |
| 39718 | But what of Silesia and of Poland now? |
| 39718 | But why should I abandon one faith in order to embrace another one? |
| 39718 | Can a man with a moderate capital get a share of these good things? |
| 39718 | Can any prophecy be more accurate or better authenticated than that? |
| 39718 | Can such phrases really mean anything to any thoughtful man? |
| 39718 | Can they not see that if they grant us one- tenth, they grant us our whole contention? |
| 39718 | Do they think what they are saying, or does Faith atrophy some part of the brain? |
| 39718 | Does anyone import Indian nests? |
| 39718 | Does anyone import queer little tortoises with long, thin necks? |

| 43237 | And how are we to account for the Millerites and others being so raised, as they believed? |
| 43237 | And how can we free ourselves from this thraldom? |
| 43237 | And how shall the other 30 years be found? |
| 43237 | And how shall this great object be accomplished? |
| 43237 | And what now shall be done? |
| 43237 | And why so? |
| 43237 | And yet, who were ever more influenced by a belief in signs, omens, spectres, and witches? |
| 43237 | Are not these cases to be relied upon as much as those related by Mr. Sunderland? |
| 43237 | Are they not as much to be credited as those who profess a belief in the miracles of the"harmonial philosophers"? |
| 43237 | But how does the dog obtain this foreknowledge? |
| 43237 | But what are the facts? |

| 43237 | I asked it,''Are you unhappy?'' |
| 43237 | I have honored my father and mother; I never stole; what need he to steal who has so good an estate? |
| 43237 | If you say the animal is sent by God, how will you explain the fact that the sign so often fails? |
| 43237 | Is the Virgin Mary the mother of God? |
| 43237 | It must be gotten somehow, for who will believe it as it now stands? |
| 43237 | Now, does this look as though the answer came from spirits? |
| 43237 | Now, who could prove that the thing alleged was not_ actually_ done? |
| 43237 | Now, who has ever been up in the moon to ascertain whether it is so or not? |
| 43237 | Or, in other words, how shall we best lend a helping hand to hasten the downfall of ignorance, error, and sin? |
| 43237 | Seeing the evils of popular superstitions, what course shall we adopt for their banishment? |
| 43237 | Shall we not gather from this, that in the spirit world they have their bands of music and companies of artillery, the same as in this world? |
| 43237 | She then said,"Will you tell the age of Cathy?" |
| 43237 | Some one in the company asked,''Is John Thompson alive?'' |
| 43237 | Some will ask the question,"If these things be true, why have we not heard of them before?" |

| 43237 | Then why should we account Friday to be an unlucky day? |
| 43237 | These sounds were so unusual, that Miss Margaretta Fox, who was present, became alarmed, and said,"What does all this mean?" |
| 43237 | Treatise after treatise was composed on such subjects as the following: How many angels can stand on the point of a needle? |
| 43237 | Well, what of that? |
| 43237 | Were such miracles ever wrought in favor of Millerism? |
| 43237 | What are his enemy''s fires and incantations to him? |
| 43237 | What gave that delusion so much success? |
| 43237 | Whence came such an opinion? |
| 43237 | Who can say it is not so? |
| 43237 | Who can wonder that they rise in the morning with wearied limbs, languid and listless, with a furred tongue, parched mouth, and headache? |
| 43237 | Who sends him on this solemn errand? |
| 43237 | Why did he not begin the reckoning from the date of the vision itself? |
| 43237 | Why not as well apply your plaster to a tree as to a pitchfork? |
| 43237 | Why not as well drink the heart of a lamb as a woman? |
| 43237 | Why not as well have the touch of a slave as a king? |
| 43237 | Why should not all mediums be alike? |
| 43237 | Why was it not then witnessed simultaneously in all parts of the earth? |
| 43237 | Why? |
| 43237 | _ Could_ they be deceived? |
| 43237 | _ Ques._"By whom were you murdered?" |
| 43237 | _ Ques._"What, then, are you?" |
| 43237 | _ Ques._"Where does your body lie?" |
| 43237 | and yet who will_ believe_ that it was? |
| 13237 | Agnes, my darling, what shall we do? 13237 All days are alike to God,"says the reformer;"why should we observe the Sabbath more than any other day?" |
| 13237 | And are men here the same, with all their faculties? |
| 13237 | And do you think I would permit you to leave me thus at random, going, you know not where, without any preconceived plans? 13237 But what motive,"I asked hesitatingly,"could Richard have had for his course?" |
| 13237 | Can you not take another pupil, Miss Reef? |
| 13237 | Cried? |
| 13237 | Did you not see that figure? 13237 Do you see the tip of his castle yonder?" |
| 13237 | Has Herbert left you? |
| 13237 | Have I been ill, Mary? 13237 Herbert,"said he, and his countenance darkened;"you can not see Herbert, he is ill."Not see Herbert, and he ill? |
| 13237 | His son Herbert? |
| 13237 | How,I cried in astonishment;"I proprietor? |
| 13237 | I do n''t know,said I,"whether its reely myself or not, for I have n''t seed myself-- how do I look?" |
| 13237 | I have been looking all over for you; why are you hiding yourself away up here? |
| 13237 | If he is my child, as you say, why should he not be here? 13237 Is it an academy?" |
| 13237 | Is this you? |
| 13237 | May I ask your age? |
| 13237 | Miss Reef,he demanded solemnly,"why will you delay? |
| 13237 | Motive? 13237 No; why should I?" |
| 13237 | Quick, where is the key? |
| 13237 | Richard married? |
| 13237 | Sir,said I,"I am calm now; will you not explain to me this frightful mystery? |
| 13237 | Sit still-- where are you going? |
| 13237 | So soon, Agnes? |
| 13237 | So there be''nt,said she, puckerin''up her pretty little mouth;"but tell me, now, is this reely you?" |
| 13237 | The science of mind? |
| 13237 | The whole establishment? |
| 13237 | Thee has a poor memory,remarked William Penn, with a bright smile,"Did not the Bible teach thee that there was an upper and a lower seat? |
| 13237 | There is no one to be seen here,replied another;"what can it mean?" |
| 13237 | This marvellous growth is owing to their being essentially a mediumistic people-- is it not so? |
| 13237 | What are you doing here? |
| 13237 | What do you mean, sir? |
| 13237 | What have I to do with that? 13237 What wonder is this?" |
| 13237 | Where are you going, Agnes? 13237 Where did you come from?" |
| 13237 | Where the deuce,he mutters,"is the showman?" |
| 13237 | Who be you? |
| 13237 | Whose voice is that? 13237 Why does that girl stand glowering at me?" |
| 13237 | Why, Mary, are you here? |
| 13237 | Why, how is this? |
| 13237 | Why? |
| 13237 | Will you not reward me for my industry? |
| 13237 | Will you open the door, or shall I? |
| 13237 | Would you like to sit upon my knee? |
| 13237 | Yes; do I not speak clearly? 13237 Yes; why not? |
| 13237 | You will? |
| 13237 | You, Agnes-- you, verily? 13237 A fearful foreboding possessed me; what could it mean? 13237 Agnes, where are you? |
| 13237 | Ai nt you afeared I''ll tell Prince Albert of your_ dooins_?" |
| 13237 | Ai nt you afeared of me? |
| 13237 | And are all our paraphernalia for funerals, our solemn black, and our long prayers but useless ceremonies? |
| 13237 | Are you ling''ring where The blue- eyed angels your sweet kisses share? |
| 13237 | As I did so a heavy, thumping footstep sounded upon the platform, and a surly voice inquired:"Are you Miss Reef?" |
| 13237 | As we turned the corner of the street I ventured to ask:"Is it to some school you are guiding me?" |
| 13237 | Bristed?" |
| 13237 | Bristed?" |
| 13237 | Bristed?" |
| 13237 | But will it not live with the living? |
| 13237 | Can honor set- to a leg? |
| 13237 | Can the intruder be Richard? |
| 13237 | Do they cling to their earthly love? |
| 13237 | Do you comprehend the extent of the undertaking? |
| 13237 | Do you have such things here? |
| 13237 | Do you not see that it is best?" |
| 13237 | Do you wish to perpetuate that crime? |
| 13237 | Doth he feel it? |
| 13237 | Doth he hear it? |
| 13237 | Go whither? |
| 13237 | Had I done right? |
| 13237 | Had my riotous heart burnt the secret upon those blushing petals? |
| 13237 | Had she arisen from her grave beneath the granite of the church- yard to warn me? |
| 13237 | Have you any you''d like to lose?" |
| 13237 | He comes-- he questions,"From whence comest thou?" |
| 13237 | He pressed my hands and said:"Agnes, can I converse with you in private here a few moments?" |
| 13237 | Honor hath no skill in surgery, then? |
| 13237 | Houses, stores, and works of art on every side?" |
| 13237 | How came you here? |
| 13237 | How could Richard expect to obtain, through my agency, possession of a son whom he had never acknowledged? |
| 13237 | How is this to be done? |
| 13237 | How long must I wait? |
| 13237 | How near is the spirit world to earth? |
| 13237 | How should I act? |
| 13237 | How then? |
| 13237 | I clenched Richard''s arm so that he muttered an oath, and said sharply,"My God, Agnes, what are you doing?" |
| 13237 | I here took the opportunity to ask Franklin if it was necessary, in communicating with absent individuals, to use those external appliances? |
| 13237 | I summoned courage to ask:"Were you sent for Miss Reef?" |
| 13237 | If so, what was he doing at that hour of the night? |
| 13237 | In return I would inquire,"Why, when men can travel by the steam- engine, do they prefer the slow movements of the horse?" |
| 13237 | Is it insensible, then? |
| 13237 | Is this a Christian deed, to flaunt a vice, And with another''s failings gild your own? |
| 13237 | Is this a Christian deed? |
| 13237 | Is this the New Jerusalem? |
| 13237 | Is your home so radiant that never more Your steps will be heard at my lowly door? |
| 13237 | Leave when I am_ sealed_ to you?" |
| 13237 | Must brother''s heart his very kin disown, While rudest hand disturbs her mouldering dust? |
| 13237 | My sister, have I lived to see thy name Dishonored? |
| 13237 | One evening I ventured to ask:"Richard, why are your visits so brief, and made only in the night?" |
| 13237 | Or an arm? |
| 13237 | Or are the dead jealous of their rights? |
| 13237 | Or take away the grief of a wound? |
| 13237 | Presently, in broken tones he asked,"Is that Miss Reef?" |
| 13237 | Shall it be by following in the beaten track of custom? |
| 13237 | Shall mankind call it just? |
| 13237 | So you are the young lady who has undertaken to be bored with my little nephew?" |
| 13237 | Soil not my angel wing; Keep not from rest; How can I upward spring, Clasped to thy breast? |
| 13237 | Some power outside of myself forced me to ask,"Herbert, what ails your throat; has any one hurt you?" |
| 13237 | Somebody was riding away; who was it? |
| 13237 | Spying Brown, I cried out,"Why, how is this, Brown? |
| 13237 | The question is often asked,"Why should immortals walk, when they can move with greater velocity than light?" |
| 13237 | Thou, who wast my pride, my stay; Shall Jealousy and Fraud thy love defame And I be dumb? |
| 13237 | To hearken to the whisperings and device Of old age, selfish, to suspicion grown? |
| 13237 | To misconstrue each friendly look-- each tone-- And out of natural love create vile lust? |
| 13237 | Was I afraid of Richard? |
| 13237 | Was he not the proper person to consult in my dilemma? |
| 13237 | What could I say? |
| 13237 | What could be the matter? |
| 13237 | What could it mean? |
| 13237 | What crime was this that he hinted at so strangely? |
| 13237 | What has he found? |
| 13237 | What hell more fearful than the hell of licentiousness? |
| 13237 | What intellect so versatile as to reproduce in song and narrative the characteristic styles of so many, and yet so dissimilar authors? |
| 13237 | What is Heaven? |
| 13237 | What is honor? |
| 13237 | What is honor? |
| 13237 | What is that word, honor? |
| 13237 | What might he not do in his drunken excitement? |
| 13237 | What plan had he now in view? |
| 13237 | What pleasant trick is this you have been playing me?" |
| 13237 | What political economist, strongly biased in favor of one mode of government, can contemplate dispassionately an opposing form? |
| 13237 | What right had I to give away a property given to me for an especial purpose? |
| 13237 | What secret foe is in their midst? |
| 13237 | Whence came the impression? |
| 13237 | Where am I?" |
| 13237 | Where was I? |
| 13237 | Where was I? |
| 13237 | Who brought you? |
| 13237 | Who has a better right to him than I? |
| 13237 | Who hath it? |
| 13237 | Whom have we not seen, from Napoleon down to the last suicide? |
| 13237 | Why did you leave Bristed Hall?" |
| 13237 | Why should I hurry away? |
| 13237 | Why will you turn from me when I desire to help you?" |
| 13237 | Why? |
| 13237 | Will you walk, or shall I call a cab?" |
| 13237 | Would you demand liberty for the army? |
| 13237 | Yea; but how if honor pricks me off when I come on? |
| 13237 | Your jewels and costly raiment you must have left behind; then whence comes all this wealth and luxury?" |
| 13237 | _ Browning_?" |
| 13237 | up and dressed?" |
| 13237 | what do I see through my blinding tears?--What misty form through the tempest appears? |
| 13237 | why, Agnes, that can not be; has he not a wife now living in France? |
| 13237 | would he undo me? |
| 13237 | you have become acquainted with him? |
| 13237 | you young varlet; where are you going so early in the morning?" |
| 40875 | ''Then, why do you not go out and see? 40875 Am I not right?" |
| 40875 | An''is it a drum ye hear? |
| 40875 | And before then? |
| 40875 | And of what, pray, are you afraid? |
| 40875 | And why did you not see the bear? |
| 40875 | Are you ill? 40875 But how do you know it?" |
| 40875 | But how in the world could I get anything to them? |
| 40875 | But you did not come at nine o''clock? |
| 40875 | Come, now,said he,"you ca n''t deny that''s your cart, can you?" |
| 40875 | Did n''t you send the medium, only yesterday, a horse and cart to be dematerialized? |
| 40875 | Did you know that Charlie M. is dead? 40875 Do you mean to say that they wear jewelry in the other world?" |
| 40875 | Ever been in a street- car accident? |
| 40875 | Ever seen one? |
| 40875 | For me? |
| 40875 | Has he anything particular to say to me? |
| 40875 | Have you any objection to my hypnotizing you? |
| 40875 | Have you seen him lately? |
| 40875 | How do you know it is n''t? |
| 40875 | How long have you been suffering in this way? |
| 40875 | I wonder if A is really dead-- for good and all? 40875 I wonder what he''s doing in town, anyway?" |
| 40875 | Is it only odd- numbered cars that affect you? 40875 Is that all you are afraid of?" |
| 40875 | Look here,said the foreman, pressing him gently into a seat,"where do you suppose you are, anyway?" |
| 40875 | On my arrival my first question was:''Is he still alive?'' 40875 The more I think of it,"Stevenson continues,"the more I am moved to press upon the world my question:''Who are the little people?'' |
| 40875 | Then what have you got your hat on for? |
| 40875 | What are you looking at? |
| 40875 | What in the world is the matter? |
| 40875 | What is the matter, Doctor Langtry? |
| 40875 | What makes you say that? |
| 40875 | What next? |
| 40875 | What''s the difference? 40875 When was it?" |
| 40875 | When? |
| 40875 | Which is it? |
| 40875 | Who did, then? |
| 40875 | Who in the world is he? |
| 40875 | Whose ghost? |
| 40875 | Why do I say what? |
| 40875 | Why do n''t you get your clothes off and go to bed? |
| 40875 | Why do you call me Smith? |
| 40875 | Why do you say this? |
| 40875 | Why was it? |
| 40875 | Why, yes, ca n''t you hear it? 40875 You are quite sure as to that?" |
| 40875 | You do n''t? |
| 40875 | Aloud she asked:"Whose portrait is that?" |
| 40875 | But now, accepting telepathy as an established fact, the problem remains: How are we to explain it? |
| 40875 | But where could he have read it? |
| 40875 | But why do you ask?" |
| 40875 | But, the reader may well ask, what does all this mean? |
| 40875 | Ca n''t you see it? |
| 40875 | Ca n''t you see them? |
| 40875 | Can I be of any use to you?'' |
| 40875 | Can I do anything for you?'' |
| 40875 | Can it be that she is really suffering from some kind of paralysis?" |
| 40875 | Can there really be more than one self, one personality, in human beings? |
| 40875 | Do you not understand that it is only the name of the fine gentleman in blue and green, whom you see marching up and down? |
| 40875 | Doctor Lià © geois immediately put him into the hypnotic state, and demanded:"Do you know why you came here this morning?" |
| 40875 | Does death end personality? |
| 40875 | Does it follow that the self perishes with bodily death? |
| 40875 | For the time she thought no more of it, but at dinner she turned to her host, the Earl of Airlie, and asked:"My lord, who is your drummer?" |
| 40875 | Had he been attracted by the light through the shutter? |
| 40875 | Has Lord Ogilvy brought a band with him?" |
| 40875 | Have you never heard of the Drummer of Cortachy?" |
| 40875 | Hazard?" |
| 40875 | How about odd- numbered houses, for instance?" |
| 40875 | How did I get here? |
| 40875 | How explain? |
| 40875 | How, then, does it come into your hands?" |
| 40875 | How_ can_ I bear it? |
| 40875 | Hypnotizing the patient as usual, he demanded:"What is this''cholera''that troubles you so much? |
| 40875 | I trust she is well?" |
| 40875 | If so, what are we? |
| 40875 | In the evening papers? |
| 40875 | Is it that she will have to spend the rest of her life in an asylum?" |
| 40875 | Is man soulless? |
| 40875 | Is there any truth in that? |
| 40875 | It occurred to me to ask:''Was it, 1, Earl''s Square?'' |
| 40875 | It read:"Are you hurt or ill? |
| 40875 | Must we be separated, she and I? |
| 40875 | Now, what were you doing last night, at that time?" |
| 40875 | Oh, ca n''t you see them?" |
| 40875 | On seeing Z. a few days afterward, I inquired:"''Did anything happen at your rooms on Saturday night?'' |
| 40875 | Perceiving I was alarmed about something, she asked:"''What is the matter?'' |
| 40875 | Shall I be, after I have ceased to exist here on earth? |
| 40875 | Tell me, Doctor Prince, am I going insane?" |
| 40875 | Tell me, doctor, is my poor Justine mad? |
| 40875 | That has been the real obstacle, has it not?" |
| 40875 | What are my capabilities? |
| 40875 | What does he say?" |
| 40875 | What does it mean?" |
| 40875 | What does this mean? |
| 40875 | What had become of his normal ego, the ego of which alone he had formerly been aware? |
| 40875 | What have you done with mine?" |
| 40875 | What if I should catch the cholera? |
| 40875 | What is the end to be? |
| 40875 | What is the true nature of man? |
| 40875 | What will become of me?" |
| 40875 | Whatever is the matter?" |
| 40875 | When did you get here? |
| 40875 | Whence the origin of these odd apparitions? |
| 40875 | Where am I? |
| 40875 | Where, it may well be asked, was this man''s original self during these two years? |
| 40875 | Why should I do things which so mortify my pride? |
| 40875 | Why should Miss Morison and Miss Lamont, among all the thousands of visitors to the Petit Trianon, alone have had such an experience? |
| 40875 | You do not believe this? |
| 40875 | says I,"am I going crazy?" |
| 21041 | ''A witness of what?'' 21041 ''All that you have told me is very sad and strange,''I said,''but now, will you allow me to ask you why you have appeared to me? |
| 21041 | ''And that of the lady opposite, my cousin, Lucretia Carbury?'' 21041 ''Have you anything more to ask?'' |
| 21041 | ''Who was the man?'' 21041 ''Why do you come to me?'' |
| 21041 | And curly and long? |
| 21041 | And what can I do about any young man? |
| 21041 | As soon as I was sure of this, I said:''You are Captain Richard Carbury?'' 21041 But ca n''t you account for it at all?" |
| 21041 | But what can_ I_ do in the matter, even if it be as you say? |
| 21041 | But what happened_ afterwards_--after I left Warwickshire, I mean? |
| 21041 | But you will join us on Wednesday at the meeting, I trust? 21041 Could you describe the man at all?" |
| 21041 | Did Frank never write? |
| 21041 | Did you want to know about anyone who lived here long ago? |
| 21041 | Did your brother Frank ever tell you of a letter he received from me in Oxford? |
| 21041 | Do n''t you remember my asking you if you had noticed anything curious, or heard or seen anything, during your visit? 21041 Do n''t you see that girl over there?" |
| 21041 | Do you know any William? 21041 Finish the text? |
| 21041 | Has anyone died here lately? |
| 21041 | How do you do, Jem? |
| 21041 | How long ago? |
| 21041 | I replied that I should gladly hear what he had to tell, but would he allow me to ask him one question? 21041 In what city?" |
| 21041 | Is any writing really coming? |
| 21041 | Is it that you are not happy? |
| 21041 | Is she mad? |
| 21041 | Miss Bates, I see? 21041 Oh yes; was n''t he just exasperating?" |
| 21041 | Really, dear? 21041 Shall I be able to hear? |
| 21041 | Shall I be able to write automatically? |
| 21041 | Still, I could put it with the others, and let it go to Warwick, and then tell the man not to do anything with it-- but what would Edward say? 21041 Then you have not had bad news?" |
| 21041 | What young man? |
| 21041 | Which room he slept in? 21041 Who could foretell when he might have another chance?" |
| 21041 | Why not say''_ I_''and have done with it? |
| 21041 | Will she give a name? |
| 21041 | Will that lady kindly sit down? 21041 Yes, of course, we know all that, you and I, but what is the use of making this fuss about it? |
| 21041 | _ Bien, Madame, qu''est- ce- que je vous ai dit?_demanded the Abbà ©, turning to me in triumph. |
| 21041 | _ Boston._"Was it in a private house, a hospital, a hotel, or_ where_ did you die? |
| 21041 | _ What business is it of yours?_was the constant reply to my questions. |
| 21041 | ''Can I be of use to you? |
| 21041 | ''Can not you speak?'' |
| 21041 | ''Is anything the matter?'' |
| 21041 | ''You are not frightened of me?'' |
| 21041 | -- Trumpington Street?" |
| 21041 | After wishing very fervently one night, Sister Margaret appeared dressed in mob cap and gown, saying:"Do n''t you see my dress? |
| 21041 | Again I ask: How about the"_ Cui Bono_"argument? |
| 21041 | Again I ask: How about the"_ Cui Bono_"argument? |
| 21041 | Are you at the same point of view? |
| 21041 | Are you not thinking of Mr Loseby?" |
| 21041 | Are you quite sure you mean Henry Halifax? |
| 21041 | Are you willing?'' |
| 21041 | As I remained silent she whispered:"Do n''t you know me?" |
| 21041 | At last, about three months ago, he turned round suddenly, and said:"''When are you going to send those pictures to be cleaned?'' |
| 21041 | B.--"Who do you mean by''_ them_''?" |
| 21041 | B.--Is there any help here for my constant problem: Why should one''s individual life be only_ now_ evolving in Eternity? |
| 21041 | B.--Why is Imperator so slow in throwing off his own spiritual limitations? |
| 21041 | But nothing more could be got out of him, so I dismissed him impatiently, saying:"What is the good of telling me such nonsense? |
| 21041 | But then again, how could I_ see_ her, since the room was quite dark? |
| 21041 | But what of it? |
| 21041 | Can you_ imagine_ his allowing the picture to be taken down upon this evidence?" |
| 21041 | Charlie Bates? |
| 21041 | Could Mr Kitchener or any other person present have had to do with the matter? |
| 21041 | Could it have creaked itself farther open? |
| 21041 | Could she find out what was the cause? |
| 21041 | Did this moment of intense desire for her, project itself into the appearance she saw in her room? |
| 21041 | Disappointed by this, I asked;"Can you not speak to us?" |
| 21041 | Do n''t you understand what I am saying? |
| 21041 | Do you see Truth in this idea, and can you tell me if it extends also to Space? |
| 21041 | Do you see what I mean? |
| 21041 | Do you suppose the master would have done such a thing?" |
| 21041 | H. D.--You want me to tell you just my position about the Imperator group before and since I passed to this side? |
| 21041 | Have you had any curious experiences since I saw you last?" |
| 21041 | He says:"Why do people in the earth life quote our words as if we were Delphic Oracles?" |
| 21041 | He thought for a moment, then said:''Chomley? |
| 21041 | His next remark was:"_ What does it matter what_ YOU_ think or what you mean to do or not to do? |
| 21041 | His reply was as follows:-- Time is really a form of perception,_ not a thing in itself_--do you understand? |
| 21041 | How could the hinges have creaked then, and whose cautious footsteps had I heard? |
| 21041 | How could we gain the real education of life were it otherwise? |
| 21041 | I can not talk, but I can listen; or do you think possibly you could get a little writing for me? |
| 21041 | I have been frequently asked:"Should you have recognised her as your friend had no name been given?" |
| 21041 | I whispered to my friend:"Shall I ask him?" |
| 21041 | If they do come they wo n''t stay-- why should they? |
| 21041 | In addition to this, the Hindoostanees consider( and who shall say without ample cause?) |
| 21041 | Is it not apparent, therefore, that there has been wisdom and goodness in our very theological mistakes and illusions? |
| 21041 | Is it strange that the same rule should apply to the universe that applies to the tiny portion of it that we know? |
| 21041 | Is it then permitted to mortals to have personal intercourse with spirits?'' |
| 21041 | Is that correct?" |
| 21041 | Is there any restitution to be made, or justice to be administered? |
| 21041 | Is there anything you want done on earth that I can do? |
| 21041 | Life is just the same on the outer; but on the_ inner?_ Well, I can not describe it!" |
| 21041 | Miss Boyle told me you wrote automatically sometimes?" |
| 21041 | My last question was:"What was your age when you passed over?" |
| 21041 | My next question naturally was:"Then shall I be able to_ see_ very soon?" |
| 21041 | On arrival there Miss Rowan Vincent said to me very kindly:"Can I do anything for_ you_ now, Miss Bates? |
| 21041 | Shall I become clair- audient?" |
| 21041 | Shall I try if I can see anything for you?" |
| 21041 | Shall you be afraid?'' |
| 21041 | She is still alive, however, and is to be taken to the hospital at one P.M.""But what has happened, Küntze?" |
| 21041 | She looked incredulous, and then said cheerfully:"Well, if it is as bad as that, do n''t you think you ought to go and see how she is?" |
| 21041 | Someone_ did_ come to my bedside last night, and said:''I am Gifford-- will you listen to me?'' |
| 21041 | Something induced me, quite against my will, to say:"Do you ever get messages by writing, Miss Vincent?" |
| 21041 | Suddenly she looked up, and said:"_ Ã � propos des bottes._""How about that young man, ma''am? |
| 21041 | Surely we are one large family, whether here or there? |
| 21041 | Surely you must feel how much you have gained since you faced your own facts? |
| 21041 | The father guessed the letter from the child''s description, and asked me if the first one were correct? |
| 21041 | The impression was so vivid that I called out instinctively:"What is it, Mabel? |
| 21041 | The matter did not specially interest me; but on arrival at Rangoon, the only decent(?) |
| 21041 | The old lady(?) |
| 21041 | Then I asked:"In what country did you pass away-- Europe or America, or elsewhere?" |
| 21041 | Then swiftly came the second idea:"And how in the world does it happen that I do n''t feel a bit frightened?" |
| 21041 | Then turning round carelessly, she remarked:"I suppose_ you_ have not seen or heard anything, Miss Bates, since you came? |
| 21041 | Thinking I would verify Miss Whiting''s story if possible, my first question was:"Can Stead''s Julia give me her surname?" |
| 21041 | This message gave me a hard problem to solve:"What should I do with it?" |
| 21041 | Was it a seducing spirit or a friendly intelligence who reminded me that my opponent had only quoted half the text--_the half that suited him_? |
| 21041 | Was it another case of mental affinity which had induced him unconsciously to choose a gold brooch with two swallows in gold and pearls? |
| 21041 | What are you going to do about him?" |
| 21041 | What can I do for you?" |
| 21041 | What could he be doing or_ waiting for_? |
| 21041 | What do you mean?" |
| 21041 | What horrors, to justify such awful shrieks, could be taking place at this quiet hour and in this quiet, respectable hotel? |
| 21041 | What more can any of us say? |
| 21041 | What_ should_ I do?" |
| 21041 | When I suggested that the judgment was at least very flattering to the Burmese, this Burmese gentleman laughed, and said:"Flattering? |
| 21041 | When people say to me:"How can a sensible woman like yourself be so foolish as to think such things?" |
| 21041 | When the doctor arrived, his first question was:"Have you had any special shock lately? |
| 21041 | Where did it go to? |
| 21041 | Where did_ you_ know him?'' |
| 21041 | Which of us has not groaned under these self- conscious euphemisms? |
| 21041 | Who can say? |
| 21041 | Why did he appear with flesh like a living man? |
| 21041 | Why not ask the UNSEEN themselves for a decision in the matter? |
| 21041 | Why, indeed? |
| 21041 | You have noticed my portrait in the gallery?'' |
| 21041 | You never saw it again? |
| 21041 | _ Where was the man?_ The door had not closed again, so far as I could hear. |
| 21041 | so interested in everything-- a_ clergyman_, my dear Miss Bates, and so_ good!_ How could there be anything painful connected with his death?" |
| 21041 | you remember my telling you about her the other day, and how her manager had run away with all that money? |
| 12813 | What''s your hurry, Joe? |
| 12813 | What''s your hurry? |
| 12813 | What''s your hurry? |
| 12813 | ''And the brown- paper parcel?'' |
| 12813 | ''And the leathern hat- box?'' |
| 12813 | ''And the striped bag?'' |
| 12813 | ''Are they so much worse off than most American business men?'' |
| 12813 | ''Do you know why I am bald?'' |
| 12813 | ''I gather, then, Lydia, that what you''re asking me to do is to neglect my business in order to read socialistic literature with you?'' |
| 12813 | ''Is all my luggage in?'' |
| 12813 | ''Is the red bag in?'' |
| 12813 | ''Now will you get up?'' |
| 12813 | ''Well, Mr. Ogre,''said the doctor, sitting down beside him with a gasp of relief;''let a wave- worn mariner into your den, will you?'' |
| 12813 | ''Why, Lydia, what''s the matter with you? |
| 12813 | And we''re not getting nicer-- and what''s the use of living if we do n''t do that? |
| 12813 | And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto his stature? |
| 12813 | And who ever saw her worrying and anxiety do much if any good? |
| 12813 | And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? |
| 12813 | Are not ye of much more value than they? |
| 12813 | Are you cursed by the demon of worry? |
| 12813 | Are you wilfully and knowingly going to allow yourself to remain within their grasp? |
| 12813 | Are you, my worrying reader, anxious to be mowed down before your time? |
| 12813 | At another time he cries My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? |
| 12813 | Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? |
| 12813 | But Lydia replied:''When you bring children Into the world, you expect to have them cost you some money, do n''t you? |
| 12813 | But do we not pay too high a price for much of our civilization? |
| 12813 | But if everybody on board the wrecked vessels had worried for six months beforehand, would their worries have prevented the wrecks? |
| 12813 | But is it? |
| 12813 | But to worry over a thing that can be changed, instead of changing it, is the height of folly, and if a matter can not be changed why worry over it? |
| 12813 | But what are the ten thousand reading? |
| 12813 | But where is the"lack of breeding"in sopping up gravy with a piece of bread or"crumming,"or eating soup with a spoon of one shape or another? |
| 12813 | CHAPTER I THE CURSE OF WORRY Of how many persons can it truthfully be said they never worry, they are perfectly happy, contented, serene? |
| 12813 | CHAPTER XXI THE WORRIES OF IMPATIENCE How many of our worries come from impatience? |
| 12813 | Can not you, in your daily life, be a true and sure musician? |
| 12813 | Can the boy''s actions be changed? |
| 12813 | Can you suggest anything better? |
| 12813 | Did he"worry"over it, and fret himself into a worse condition? |
| 12813 | Do the birds worry? |
| 12813 | Do they feel an ache or a pain? |
| 12813 | Do you know what I wished right then and there? |
| 12813 | Do you propose, therefore, any longer to submit? |
| 12813 | Do you want to be freed from his throttling assaults? |
| 12813 | Has he got a death grip on your throat? |
| 12813 | Have you a right to say it? |
| 12813 | Have you anything to say? |
| 12813 | He waved the platter toward the uproar in the next rooms:''A boiler factory ai n''t in it with woman, lovely woman, is it?'' |
| 12813 | Hence, why worry? |
| 12813 | How necessary to your existence? |
| 12813 | How nobly Browning set this forth in his Epilogue: What had I on earth to do With the slothful, with the mawkish, the unmanly? |
| 12813 | How often we hear the question:"Why is it the wicked prosper so?" |
| 12813 | How should this man have treated this settled fixed fact in his life? |
| 12813 | How was it to be brought about? |
| 12813 | I have come to exclaim with Browning in_ Rabbi Ben Ezra_: Now, who shall arbitrate? |
| 12813 | I heard thee say even now, thou lik''dst not that, When Cassio left my wife; what didst not like? |
| 12813 | I see, and what of it? |
| 12813 | I stay my haste, I make delays, For what avails this eager pace? |
| 12813 | If happiness and a large content be a laudable aim of life how far are we-- the occidental world-- succeeding in attaining it? |
| 12813 | If they can not be changed, why nag him, why irritate him, why make a bad matter worse? |
| 12813 | In a few moments, both lads, tousled, half- dressed, and well- scared, rushed downstairs, exclaiming:"Where''s the fire? |
| 12813 | Is any house that was ever built worth the alienation of dear ones? |
| 12813 | Is freedom from worry worth while; is it worth struggling for? |
| 12813 | Is he thinking joyful thoughts? |
| 12813 | Is he thinking of how he may help others? |
| 12813 | Is he thinking over the mistakes of the past and sensibly and wisely taking counsel from them? |
| 12813 | Is it thinking over things that are to be done, and planning for the future? |
| 12813 | Is it wise to say it? |
| 12813 | Is it? |
| 12813 | Is life to be one mere whirling around of the cage of useless toil or pleasure, of mere imagining that you are doing something? |
| 12813 | Is not such a course immeasurably better than to allow himself to worry, and fret and fear all the time? |
| 12813 | Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? |
| 12813 | Is the game worth the shot? |
| 12813 | Is there any wisdom, when one has the cup of misery at his lips, in deliberately keeping it there, and persistently drinking it to the"very dregs"? |
| 12813 | Is this kindly, is it helpful, is it loving, is it unselfish? |
| 12813 | Let your question be, not: How can I secure my own pleasure and comfort? |
| 12813 | Like the aimless, helpless, hopeless, did I drivel--Being-- Who? |
| 12813 | Now what''s the use? |
| 12813 | Or are they just rushing because the rest do it? |
| 12813 | Ought they not to be worried? |
| 12813 | Rest and peace of mind? |
| 12813 | Should man do any less? |
| 12813 | That which will elevate, improve, benefit? |
| 12813 | The beasts of the field? |
| 12813 | The clouds? |
| 12813 | The flowers? |
| 12813 | The girl unconsciously puts her hand to her brow--"What''s the matter with your head, dearie; got a headache?" |
| 12813 | The important question, therefore, should be:"Is he ready to receive them?" |
| 12813 | The rain- drops? |
| 12813 | The sun, moon, stars, and comets? |
| 12813 | The trees? |
| 12813 | The winds? |
| 12813 | Then the query arose: Whose prayers will be answered on my behalf? |
| 12813 | Then why still persist in it? |
| 12813 | Then why worry yourself by trying? |
| 12813 | Then, too, when I recall how often my addresses are ignored in the local press, ought not I to be aroused to fierce ire? |
| 12813 | Then, when God''s magnificent love bursts upon him he sings in joy:--What, my soul? |
| 12813 | Then, when cause for worry seems to be ever present, why not call upon this Loving Maternal Soothing Power? |
| 12813 | These will bring a natural feeling of harmony with all things, and that is conducive to speedy sleep? |
| 12813 | To help to heal a wounded spirit? |
| 12813 | To mend a broken heart? |
| 12813 | To save a life? |
| 12813 | To these, my worrying friends, I continually put the question: Is it worth while? |
| 12813 | We all surmise, They this thing, and I that: whom shall my soul believe? |
| 12813 | What are the essentials for life? |
| 12813 | What are they, that they should demand the reverent following of the world? |
| 12813 | What difference does it make whether I read my paper at 8 o''clock in the morning or at half- past 9? |
| 12813 | What do they get out of life-- these people who are always in a rush? |
| 12813 | What do you gain for all your worry? |
| 12813 | What for? |
| 12813 | What have you and I had to do with the new inventions in electricity or mechanics or the conquest of the air? |
| 12813 | What is essential-- What not? |
| 12813 | What is it doing? |
| 12813 | What is the hurry, after all? |
| 12813 | What is the result? |
| 12813 | What matter if I stand alone? |
| 12813 | What room for worry is there in a heart full of the peace of God, which passeth all understanding? |
| 12813 | What use is it to you? |
| 12813 | What would have been the probable result? |
| 12813 | What''s your hurry? |
| 12813 | What''s your hurry? |
| 12813 | What, then, is the sensible, the reasonable, the only thing she should do? |
| 12813 | What, then, should be the mental attitude of the superintendent and his family? |
| 12813 | When doors great and small Nine- and- ninety flew ope at our touch, should the hundredth appall? |
| 12813 | When we use the word"worry"what do we mean? |
| 12813 | Where are they going in such a hurry? |
| 12813 | Where are we all going? |
| 12813 | Where is the use? |
| 12813 | Where''s the fire?" |
| 12813 | Who are they? |
| 12813 | Who can not see and feel that such a consummation is devoutly to be wished, worth working and earnestly striving for? |
| 12813 | Who gave to him the wisdom and power of discernment to know that_ he_ was right and these others wrong? |
| 12813 | Who has not met with this nervous species of worrier? |
| 12813 | Who has not seen the vain struggles, the distress, the worry of unsatisfied ambitions that would have amounted to nothing had they been gratified? |
| 12813 | Who has not thus seen the anxious mother? |
| 12813 | Who made him the judge of the thoughts and acts of other men''s inner lives? |
| 12813 | Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? |
| 12813 | Why be so afraid of others; why so anxious to"kow- tow"to the standards of others? |
| 12813 | Why forge fetters upon oneself? |
| 12813 | Why in the world should you think it funny for them to do this tomfool trick all winter and have nervous prostration all summer to pay for it? |
| 12813 | Why is it that creatures endowed with reason distress themselves and everyone around them by worrying? |
| 12813 | Why not rest in His arms, and thus find peace, poise and serenity? |
| 12813 | Why push a heavy rock up a mountain side merely to have it roll down again? |
| 12813 | Why should not my blood boil when I think of it? |
| 12813 | Why should one sit on thorns, or on pins and needles? |
| 12813 | Why should you be afraid? |
| 12813 | Why spend your small income upon the unattainable, or upon that which, even if you could attain it, you would find unsatisfying and incomplete? |
| 12813 | Why, then, waste time? |
| 12813 | Will it replace the destroyed bridge, renew the washed out track, repair the broken engine? |
| 12813 | Wo n''t anything, even the best, in Endbury be a come- down for her?'' |
| 12813 | Would one speck of dirt be removed as the result of the worry, the wailing, and the tears? |
| 12813 | Would this help matters? |
| 12813 | Yet did she"worry"about it? |
| 12813 | _ Is_ what''s good enough for us good enough for Lydia? |
| 12813 | _ We_--Why"_ we_"? |
| 12813 | but How can I best secure his? |
| 12813 | or, What shall we drink? |
| 12813 | or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? |
| 12813 | see thus far and no farther? |
| 45113 | Bright pictures in the mind,why not, indeed? |
| 45113 | Is it different from what is called Mental Science, or Christian Science? |
| 45113 | What Is The New Thought? |
| 45113 | What does it mean? |
| 45113 | What principles does it stand for? |
| 45113 | And if not, why not, pray? |
| 45113 | And the followers of those strange prophets, what of them? |
| 45113 | And this hunger for spiritual knowledge and growth, from whence comes it? |
| 45113 | And, after all, who are"They?" |
| 45113 | Are you not aware that there are powers latent within us, pressing forth for development and unfoldment? |
| 45113 | Aye, why should I doubt or question? |
| 45113 | But does n''t it seem like a pity to see people wasting their time, energy, thoughts and life on these old sorrows? |
| 45113 | Can I make my disposition into one which is active, positive, high strung and masterful? |
| 45113 | Can any good come of lugging this trash around with you? |
| 45113 | Can any of you describe the process of getting things better than this? |
| 45113 | Did you ever doubt that the grass would grow and the trees take on leaves next Spring? |
| 45113 | Did you ever fear that perhaps the Summer would not come? |
| 45113 | Did you ever go house hunting? |
| 45113 | Did you ever meet the Human Wet Blanket? |
| 45113 | Did you ever meet the man with the"Southern Exposure"--the man who faces the Sun? |
| 45113 | Did you ever notice a man or a woman looking for trouble, and how soon they found it? |
| 45113 | Did you ever shiver with dread at the thought of what would happen if the sun should not rise to- morrow? |
| 45113 | Did you ever start in the morning feeling cross and crabbed? |
| 45113 | Did you think that some wonderful essence was going to grow from you, and that that essence would be what you call a spirit? |
| 45113 | Did you think you were here by chance, or that you were an alien? |
| 45113 | Do I believe this? |
| 45113 | Do n''t you know that an earnest, confident expectation of the good things to come will cause these good things to grow for your use in the future? |
| 45113 | Do n''t you know that in the womb of the future sleep opportunities intended for your use when the time comes? |
| 45113 | Do n''t you know that the supply of good things does not cease with the close of to- day? |
| 45113 | Do you doubt the Supreme Intelligence which knows all things and is conscious of all things? |
| 45113 | Do you doubt the Supreme Power which manifests itself in all forms of power? |
| 45113 | Do you doubt the Universal Presence which is in all places at all times? |
| 45113 | Do you fret and chafe at the trials and troubles of this world, and imagine that somewhere else things will be better? |
| 45113 | Do you know that we are young giants who have not discovered our own strength? |
| 45113 | Do you long for another home? |
| 45113 | Do you not know that Desire, Faith and Work is the triple key to the doors of Attainment? |
| 45113 | Do you recall how he brought with him the inspiring Solar vibrations? |
| 45113 | Do you remember how the wrinkles and frowns disappeared from the faces of those in his presence? |
| 45113 | Do you remember how, long after he had departed, the memory of his presence cheered you-- the thrill of his thought vibrations remained to stimulate? |
| 45113 | Do you suppose that the manifestation is everything, and the manifestor nothing? |
| 45113 | Do you think for a moment that GOD does not know what he is about? |
| 45113 | Do you think it helps you to overcome your troubles, or makes your burden any lighter? |
| 45113 | Do you think that it does you any good to go around with a long face, telling your tale of woe to everyone whom you can induce to listen to you? |
| 45113 | Do you think that it does you any good? |
| 45113 | Funny, is n''t it? |
| 45113 | Have I not felt the pressure of the Unseen Hand? |
| 45113 | Have you ever noticed that some rooms always seem to exert a beneficial effect upon you, while others seem to depress you? |
| 45113 | How am I to recognize the causes of my failure and thus avoid them? |
| 45113 | How can I affect my circumstances by my mental effort? |
| 45113 | How can I directly attract friends and friendship? |
| 45113 | How can I draw vitality of mind and body from an invisible source? |
| 45113 | How can I influence other people by mental suggestion? |
| 45113 | How can I influence people at a distance by my mind alone? |
| 45113 | How can I influence those more powerful ones from whom I desire favor? |
| 45113 | How can I retard old age, preserve health and good looks? |
| 45113 | I''ve seen it happen many a time, have n''t you? |
| 45113 | If a room in your house is dark and gloomy, do you hire a man to shovel out the darkness-- do you attempt to do it yourself in your desire for light? |
| 45113 | If they must think of the past, why not think of the bright things that came into their lives, instead of the dark ones? |
| 45113 | If we were preparing a new room for the occupancy of some dear one, would we place there any but the brightest picture? |
| 45113 | Just how shall I go about it to free myself from my depression, failure, timidity, weakness and care? |
| 45113 | No, you do n''t see it that way? |
| 45113 | Now what are you going to do about it? |
| 45113 | Now, if this"Southern Exposure"is such a good thing in a room, why is n''t it a good thing in a man? |
| 45113 | Oh what''s the use? |
| 45113 | Oh, dear, dear, what''s the use? |
| 45113 | Oh, ye of little Faith, why do you not see these things? |
| 45113 | Oh, ye of little faith do you not know that this is no world of chance? |
| 45113 | Or will you cease being a psychic pest- house, and begin to fumigate and disinfect your Mind? |
| 45113 | Outside of what? |
| 45113 | See?" |
| 45113 | Seeing this-- looking into our own hearts-- how can we Condemn? |
| 45113 | Shall I ever know the owner of this hand? |
| 45113 | Shall I ever see its face? |
| 45113 | Shall I ever understand the mystery of its existence? |
| 45113 | So what are they going to do about it anyhow? |
| 45113 | So what''s the use in being afraid? |
| 45113 | Tear and twist, pull and wrench, beat and pound, and what have you accomplished? |
| 45113 | We may assert fervently that we know that All is Good, and that all is best for us, etc., etc., but have we enough faith to manifest it in our lives? |
| 45113 | Well, what of that? |
| 45113 | What does Life mean?" |
| 45113 | What is the object of my existence? |
| 45113 | What''s the use in being afraid? |
| 45113 | What''s the use of attempting to resist it? |
| 45113 | What''s the use? |
| 45113 | What''s the use? |
| 45113 | When we ask our intellects,"Whence come I? |
| 45113 | Whither go I? |
| 45113 | Who can resist the"fetching"qualities of a bright, baby face, smiling from a little picture on the mantel, or on the wall? |
| 45113 | Who knows what a day may bring forth? |
| 45113 | Who''s going to hurt you? |
| 45113 | Why ca n''t you see this? |
| 45113 | Why do we not have Faith? |
| 45113 | Why do we not recognize Law? |
| 45113 | Why do we not see the great Plan behind it all? |
| 45113 | Why do"birds of a feather flock together,"in business and everyday life? |
| 45113 | Why should I fear, have I not hold of my father''s hand? |
| 45113 | Why should you doubt-- have you not felt the pressure of The Hand?" |
| 45113 | Work? |
| 45113 | Would we do this thing I ask you? |
| 45113 | Would we hang there pictures of pain and misery, hate and murder, jealousy and revenge, sickness, suffering and death, failure and discouragement? |
| 45113 | Would_ you_ do it? |
| 45113 | mysterious to- morrow-- that delight of the child-- that bugaboo of the"grown up"--what shall we say of to- morrow? |
| 54665 | Am I in the right path? |
| 54665 | And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? 54665 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? |
| 54665 | And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? 54665 How comes this? |
| 54665 | Of whose thought could this be the reflection? |
| 54665 | What do you want, sister? |
| 54665 | Who is he? |
| 54665 | Why is it that our belief has anything to do with the exercise of the healing power? |
| 54665 | ''Do you believe you are already helped?'' |
| 54665 | 28, 29, 30:--"And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? |
| 54665 | Are we to suppose that the souls of all these things are pressed into the service of the nocturnal visitant? |
| 54665 | At a subsequent sitting the following questions and answers were given:--"_ Q._ Who are you that write? |
| 54665 | At a subsequent séance the following dialogue occurred:"_ Q._ By what means are( unknown) secrets conveyed to wife''s brain? |
| 54665 | But is his comparison pertinent? |
| 54665 | But is it necessary in this case to invoke the aid of such an explanation? |
| 54665 | But is it not haunted, nevertheless? |
| 54665 | But the question is, Will that hypothesis apply to all the phenomena? |
| 54665 | Can a segregated portion of the Divine essence, once individualized, ever perish or lose its identity? |
| 54665 | Did it proceed from disembodied spirits? |
| 54665 | Does it actually die, disintegrate, and return to its original elements? |
| 54665 | Have we not a logical right to infer that when it is entirely freed from physical trammels, it will have reached a condition of independent existence? |
| 54665 | Have you any deceased friend by that name?" |
| 54665 | How about Number 2? |
| 54665 | How is evidence to be obtained, and what is its value when obtained? |
| 54665 | If not, why not? |
| 54665 | If so, who? |
| 54665 | In what consisted the power of primitive man to assert and maintain his God- given dominion over the monsters of his day and generation? |
| 54665 | In what does identity consist, or, more properly speaking, how is it retained? |
| 54665 | Is it because the former possesses more knowledge than the latter? |
| 54665 | Is it not a fact, nevertheless, that the passes are principally useful as a means of controlling the minds both of the subject and the operator? |
| 54665 | Is it probable, or even possible, that he could have taught that_ belief_ alone was a sufficient atonement for the sins of the wicked? |
| 54665 | Is it this idea, so deeply rooted in her brain, which neutralizes our efforts and her own wish to be cured? |
| 54665 | Is not the primary effect-- hypnotic or mesmeric-- produced, not directly upon the animal, but upon the man himself? |
| 54665 | Is that an evidence of a trinity of mind?" |
| 54665 | It may be asked, What becomes of the soul when deprived of a conscious existence? |
| 54665 | Now, has the medium actually seen a spirit, or has he merely read the sitter''s subjective mind? |
| 54665 | Now, it may be asked, how do we connect the clairaudient warning of the old man with the wreck which did not occur to his train? |
| 54665 | Now, the question arises, What is the effect thus produced on the animal? |
| 54665 | Now, what is an auto- suggestion? |
| 54665 | On seeing Z, a few days afterwards, I inquired,''Did anything happen at your rooms on Saturday night?'' |
| 54665 | Said one of them, in my hearing:"I have often been asked the question,''What is an adept?'' |
| 54665 | Some of them say, however,"If this is evidence of duality of mind, what shall we say of those who exhibit a triple personality? |
| 54665 | The first question in order is, What are the inherent probabilities? |
| 54665 | The first question, then, is, What do we know of the attributes of the soul? |
| 54665 | The first question, therefore, is, What did Jesus declare to be the one essential condition necessary to the attainment of immortal life? |
| 54665 | The following are fair samples:--"_ Q._ Is it the operator''s brain, or some external force, that moves the planchette? |
| 54665 | The great question,"If a man die, shall he live again?" |
| 54665 | The healer triumphantly asks,"What do you think of my theory now?" |
| 54665 | The next question is, What are the conditions? |
| 54665 | The question arises, What part does the subjective mind play in the normal operation of the human intellect? |
| 54665 | The question now arises, What are the conditions necessary to give us assurance of infallible deductions from given premises? |
| 54665 | The question now is, Did Jesus mean just what he said; or were these idle words, having no significance taken in their literal sense? |
| 54665 | The question now is, What is to be considered the doctrine of future rewards and punishments to be gathered from the New Testament? |
| 54665 | The question,"Whom did you desire to have appointed administrator of your estate?" |
| 54665 | Thus, the first question,''Who are you that write?'' |
| 54665 | Was there any intellectual feat performed which rendered it impossible that he should have been its author? |
| 54665 | We ask, of whose thought could this be the reflection?" |
| 54665 | What do_ you_ call it? |
| 54665 | What effects, if any, either in the condition of the subject or of the operator, or in both, are missing when the new methods are applied? |
| 54665 | What greater punishment than the remorse of conscience arising from the ever- persistent memory of a life of wickedness and crime? |
| 54665 | What greater reward could such a being ask or experience than would be found in the contemplation of a well- spent life? |
| 54665 | What would he have answered? |
| 54665 | When did the higher phenomena show the first signs of decadence? |
| 54665 | Who has not dreamed of being dead? |
| 54665 | Why? |
| 54665 | Would he not, assuredly, have the right to remind his interrogator of the rules of good breeding? |
| 54665 | Would that conception have proved that an outside universe is possible or existent? |
| 54665 | _ A._ Why do you try to make me say what I wo n''t? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ But does no one tell wife what to write? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ But how does wife''s brain know( certain) secrets? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ By whom, or by what, is the electro- biologic force set in motion? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ Can wife answer a question the reply to which I do not know? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ Is it the will of a living person, or of an immaterial spirit distinct from that person? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ What do you mean by''what you call''? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ What is your own name? |
| 54665 | _ Q._ Whose spirit? |
| 54665 | _ Why_ will you not tell? |
| 54665 | but where are the nine? |
| 54665 | how long shall I suffer you?" |
| 11950 | Behold this ruin,''tis a skull Once of etherial spirit full--"Par quel ordre du Ciel, que je ne puis compendre Vous dis- je plus que je ne dois? |
| 11950 | Does he know who is now speaking? |
| 11950 | Is he satisfied with the Commission? |
| 11950 | Will it answer to the alphabet? |
| 11950 | ''And do you remember the sweet years of old?'' |
| 11950 | ''And do you remember, Olive dear, whose names were carved on it?'' |
| 11950 | ''And do you, oh, do you remember that you fell asleep under the oak, and that a little acorn fell into your bosom and you tossed it out in a pet? |
| 11950 | ''But Rosamund, Fair Rosamund, what made you drink that bowl? |
| 11950 | ''But, my dear sir,''I cried,''what_ can_ I ask about? |
| 11950 | ''Certainly I will, dear Uncle, and wo n''t you bring me a necklace, too?'' |
| 11950 | ''Did n''t you see what Eleanor had in her other hand?'' |
| 11950 | ''Do you remember,''I continued,''the old oak near Sumner- place?'' |
| 11950 | ''How did she find you out?'' |
| 11950 | ''Oh, Effie dear,''I said,''is that you?'' |
| 11950 | ''Pray, tell me,''I said,''is that motion of your forefinger voluntary or involuntary?'' |
| 11950 | ''Stop,''he cried,''is it Maria?'' |
| 11950 | ''Stop,''he cried,''is there a"Saint"about it?'' |
| 11950 | ''Well, how does he perform his wonderful exploits in rappings, etc.?'' |
| 11950 | ( Resuming): I presume then it is Henry Seybert? |
| 11950 | ( Resuming): Is the Spirit the same one that was present last night? |
| 11950 | ( Resuming): Will you communicate with him before Mr. Pepper leaves to- night? |
| 11950 | ( Resuming, from notes): The inquiry was then addressed to Dr. Slade,''Do you know a man named Guernella who, with his wife, gave séances?'' |
| 11950 | ( To Mr. Furness): Do you not think so? |
| 11950 | And do you know that it has grown into a fine young oak?'' |
| 11950 | Answer:''Soon,''''Will you write for the gentlemen?'' |
| 11950 | Are there more Spirits than one present? |
| 11950 | Are they visible before you? |
| 11950 | Are we likely to have any demonstration? |
| 11950 | Are you able to communicate with him now? |
| 11950 | Are you happy now? |
| 11950 | But did it not behoove the Acting Chairman of the Seybert Commission to yield himself a willing victim to the cause of Psychical Research? |
| 11950 | But had not the envelope been opened? |
| 11950 | But what other possible way have I of finding out who the Spirits are, when they do not tell me in advance, but by asking them? |
| 11950 | But why should I anticipate deceit at Spiritual hands? |
| 11950 | But why should we talk of''loss?'' |
| 11950 | Can it be that the faculty of observation and comparison is rare, and that our features are really vague and misty to our best friends? |
| 11950 | Can you indicate on the table your presence, Mr. Seybert? |
| 11950 | Can you tell me anything about the owner, when alive, of the skull here in the Library? |
| 11950 | Could this have been a lure to tempt me to knock again at the Spiritual door of which Dr. Mansfield is the porter? |
| 11950 | Did I ever evince the slightest mistrust of Indian''braves?'' |
| 11950 | Did I give her a ring? |
| 11950 | Did I not very much disappoint a young lady over there? |
| 11950 | Did you really want to come back?'' |
| 11950 | Do I not go often into a building where many persons work at chemistry? |
| 11950 | Do you move this pencil? |
| 11950 | Do you remember it, dear one?'' |
| 11950 | Do you remember it, dear?'' |
| 11950 | Do you remember who gave you that bowl just before you died?'' |
| 11950 | Does it gratify her, as a Spirit, that it is mounted on black marble? |
| 11950 | Does not a hen sit for three weeks? |
| 11950 | Does she ever hover over it?'' |
| 11950 | Dr. Koenig: What would that mean-- that he only sees some of us, or that he sees none of us entirely, but only partially? |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy asked the question:"Is any Spirit present?" |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy asked:''When and where did you die?'' |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy: Is Mr. Seybert present? |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy: Is any Spirit present whom I know, or who knows me? |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy: Is any Spirit present? |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy: Who am I? |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy: Will you repeat your taps to indicate that you are present yet? |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy:"To the right?" |
| 11950 | Dr. Leidy:"Will you confer with the man to left of the Medium?" |
| 11950 | Had you no suspicions?'' |
| 11950 | Have I been smitten with color- blindness? |
| 11950 | Have I ever failed in respectful homage to General Washington? |
| 11950 | Have I never seen the Medium before? |
| 11950 | Have I not been across the water where people had the cholera and turned black and died? |
| 11950 | Have you any message to send to your wife, M---- F----? |
| 11950 | He asked, with somewhat of a sneer,''How did you expect to investigate it?'' |
| 11950 | I arose as it approached and asked:''Is this Rosamund?'' |
| 11950 | I sat down and wrote,"Has Marie St. Clair met Sister Belle in the other world?" |
| 11950 | I sat down at my table and wrote:''Is it really true that Sister Belle''s body was sold to three doctors?'' |
| 11950 | I thought,''are not the four Cardinal virtues, Temperance, Justice,_ Prudence_ and Fortitude?'' |
| 11950 | I wrote upon a slip of paper my question,"Will Dr. H. advise me what to do for Juliet( an old colored patient)?" |
| 11950 | If William Shakespeare can appear to me, why not Fair Rosamund? |
| 11950 | If it be not the Spirit that I name, will it not, if it has a shred of honesty, set me right? |
| 11950 | In answer to the question,''Are you ready to lift the gentleman?'' |
| 11950 | In answer to the question,''Will you try to lift the chair?'' |
| 11950 | Is it Henry Seybert? |
| 11950 | Is it that the Medium exercises some mesmeric influence on her visitors, who are thus made to accept the faces which she wills them to see? |
| 11950 | Is not a Medium worth more than a chicken? |
| 11950 | Is the gentleman opposite a Medium? |
| 11950 | Isolating you from the table? |
| 11950 | It was asked whether Mr. Seybert would meet us on the next evening? |
| 11950 | It was asked: Will the Spirits answer questions? |
| 11950 | Le Conte-- are you engaged now in the study of Coleoptera?'' |
| 11950 | Medium requests that the piano be moved against the door( to keep off illicit Spirits?). |
| 11950 | Moreover, I thought, are there not to be found in Anatomical Museums skeletons of infants with one body and two heads? |
| 11950 | Mr. Fullerton( to the Medium): How does your hand feel when affected in that way? |
| 11950 | Mr. Fullerton: Then it was not the regular triple rap? |
| 11950 | Mr. Furness( applying his right hand, by her permission, to the Medium''s head): Are you ever conscious of any vibration in your bones? |
| 11950 | Mr. Furness: Do these raps always have that vibratory sound-- tr- rut-- tr- rut-- tr- rut? |
| 11950 | Mr. Furness: Do you suppose that the present conditions are such that you can throw the raps to a part of the room other than that in which you are? |
| 11950 | Mr. Furness: How in the world shall we test that? |
| 11950 | Mr. Furness: The freer the raps come, the better for you? |
| 11950 | Mr. Furness: Under what conditions can you influence them? |
| 11950 | Mr. Furness: You say that, in the generality of cases, they are beyond your control? |
| 11950 | Mr. Pepper: Harry, would you like to know something about this investigation of Spiritual manifestations, which you had so much at heart while living? |
| 11950 | My fourth, and last, question therefore ran:''Do you think that by any chance Dina Melish would know?'' |
| 11950 | My third question immediately followed:"Can you give me any information as to where even a portion of the body is?" |
| 11950 | Need I say that this document, in Marie''s own handwriting, invests the skull with even added interest? |
| 11950 | Need it be added that I gratefully remitted to Medium Number Three a double fee, and do yet consider myself many times her debtor? |
| 11950 | Now, Mr. Seybert, can not you produce some raps? |
| 11950 | On two occasions, when I suggested that I recognized the form by asking,"Is it----?" |
| 11950 | Or is it, after all, only the dim light and a fresh illustration of_ la nuit tous les chats sont gris_? |
| 11950 | Pepper:"Do you remember the year in which you made the promise?" |
| 11950 | Professor Thompson( interposing): Do you remember the Medium''s remarks about the resistance of the Spirits? |
| 11950 | Professor Thompson( who was the person indicated):"Is the Spirit male?" |
| 11950 | Professor Thompson: But did not the Medium make that statement at the very first séance? |
| 11950 | Sellers asked the Medium,"Dr. Slade, will you allow me to see that slate?" |
| 11950 | Sellers here described at length Mr. Kellar''s trick with the fastened slates, and in concluding, asked:] How did Mr. Kellar do that? |
| 11950 | Sellers( addressing the Spirit): Will you repeat the raps we heard just now, assuming that there were some? |
| 11950 | Sellers( after a notification from the Medium to proceed): Is Mr. Seybert still present? |
| 11950 | Sellers( to the Medium): As if the Spirits might or might not communicate? |
| 11950 | Sellers): Was not that slate the one that I held at the time referred to? |
| 11950 | Sellers): Was there an answer to that? |
| 11950 | Sellers): You asked that question, I think? |
| 11950 | Sellers, being requested to write a question on the back of the slate near him, wrote the following,''What is the time?'' |
| 11950 | Sellers, complying with the Medium''s request to write a question on the back of the slate, wrote"Do you know the persons present?" |
| 11950 | Sellers: Are there only three? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Are there seven members of the Committee present? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Are they all seated around one table? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Are they seated at two tables? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Are those the shoes which you usually wear? |
| 11950 | Sellers: But can he not do it by trickery? |
| 11950 | Sellers: But do you feel now, to- night, any untoward influence operating against you? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Do you know a man named Kellar, who is exhibiting in this city? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Do you, Mr. Seybert, at the present time, see the persons present? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Is any Spirit present now? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Then the sounds will be just beneath your feet, will they? |
| 11950 | Sellers: What are the rules? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Will the Spirit rap again? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Will the raps be produced under such circumstances? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Will you communicate with Mr. Pepper by raps or by writing? |
| 11950 | Sellers: Will you please rap the number of the members of the Committee who are present at this time? |
| 11950 | Sellers:"Does Mr. Seybert know the names of the Commission?" |
| 11950 | Sellers:"Will Henry Seybert make the raps at this end of the table?" |
| 11950 | Stifling atmosphere breathed for 1- 1/2 hours, for what? |
| 11950 | Tell me, you little witch, who were you thinking of all that time?'' |
| 11950 | Tell us if you will play the accordion, or try to to- day? |
| 11950 | The Medium( repeating): Will you rap on the floor? |
| 11950 | The Medium( to Dr. Leidy): Ask if that is Mr. Seybert? |
| 11950 | The Medium( to Mr. Furness): The glasses are not placed over marble, are they? |
| 11950 | The Medium: Now, Mr. Seybert, if your Spirit is here, will you have the kindness-- I knew Mr. Seybert well in life-- to rap? |
| 11950 | The Medium: Now, Spirits, will you rap on the floor? |
| 11950 | The Medium: Well, by-- Mr. Furness: By-- what? |
| 11950 | The Medium: Were any of you gentlemen acquainted with Mr. Seybert in his lifetime? |
| 11950 | The Medium: Will the Spirit rap here? |
| 11950 | To regain my lost position, therefore, I said hastily,''But can it be Effie?'' |
| 11950 | Upon one slate the following interrogatories and responses were recorded:''Spirits, are you ready to work?'' |
| 11950 | Was to be, or not to be, a Medium so evenly balanced that the turning of a hair, or of a whole head of hair was to repel me? |
| 11950 | What hinders it from telling me just who it is? |
| 11950 | When a Spirit called for her husband, Mrs. Thayer, the interpreter, asked,"Has anyone here a wife on the other side?" |
| 11950 | When a Spirit comes out of the Cabinet especially to me, how am I to know, or to find out, who it is but by asking? |
| 11950 | When we resumed our seats, I could not help asking her:''Are you_ sure_ you recognized him?'' |
| 11950 | Where a hen gives a week, shall not I give a month? |
| 11950 | Whereupon she instantly retorted, with much indignation,''Do you mean to imply that I do n''t_ know_ my_ husband_?'' |
| 11950 | Who can truthfully describe a juggler''s trick? |
| 11950 | Why had no one ever told me of that row of books? |
| 11950 | Why may not this have been an instance of one head and two bodies? |
| 11950 | Will you communicate by raps? |
| 11950 | Would not it be advisable, when you say it was thrown up, to add that it was thrown from the side at which the Medium was sitting? |
| 11950 | You''ll surely come and see me again the next time I come here, wo n''t you?'' |
| 11950 | you never believed in them, did you?'' |
| 44625 | ''A stranger? 44625 ''And this?'' |
| 44625 | ''I will do anything you ask,''replied the passenger,''but what shall I write?'' 44625 ''The matter, sir? |
| 44625 | ''Well, Mr. Bruce,''said the Captain,''did not I tell you that you had been dreaming?'' 44625 ''What were you doing?'' |
| 44625 | ''Why, Mr. Bruce,''said the latter,''what in the world is the matter with you?'' 44625 ''You say that this is your handwriting?'' |
| 44625 | But are there no real ghosts? 44625 Have you then forgotten our promises to each other, pledged in early life? |
| 44625 | I again addressed it, this time in the language of the country,''What do you want?'' 44625 I strove to speak-- my voice utterly failed me; I could only think to myself, Is this fear? |
| 44625 | Tell me,I said,"Lord Tyrone, why and wherefore are you here at this time of the night?" |
| 44625 | The men saluted him; and the captain called out:''How''s she heading?'' 44625 This I immediately did; and the next day when my sister arrived, she asked me if I had complied with her request? |
| 44625 | Upon hearing this the captain said to the second mate:''When did you heave the lead? 44625 ''Could anyone have been stowed away?'' 44625 ''Well, do you like it?'' 44625 ''What are ye talkin''about?'' 44625 ''What is up?'' 44625 ''What was this gentleman about at noon to- day?'' 44625 13 The Terror of the Dark 14 What is a Ghost? 44625 18 Historic Investigations 20 Death Coincidences 21 Are They Due to Chance? 44625 ARE THEY DUE TO CHANCE? 44625 After all, is n''t there some reason for the fears that we all feel, more or less, at that time? 44625 After all, were not his arguments somewhat impressive? 44625 And why did_ It appear_? 44625 At last:''What is the meaning of this?'' 44625 Bruce?'' 44625 But how about those ghosts which appear some time after death? 44625 But you say,''he added, turning to the passenger,''that you did not dream of writing on a slate?'' 44625 But, after all, what_ is_ a ghost? 44625 CAN HAUNTED HOUSES BECURED"? |
| 44625 | Can I be of use to you?'' |
| 44625 | Can I do anything for you?'' |
| 44625 | Can not you see why I hate it so?" |
| 44625 | Can that be right? |
| 44625 | Can this be done? |
| 44625 | Chance, you say? |
| 44625 | Could a simple"hallucination"have been so widespread and so prevalent? |
| 44625 | Could a_ hundred_? |
| 44625 | Did the animal succeed in affecting his master by telepathy? |
| 44625 | For, if a living mind can influence the living by telepathy; why not a"dead"one? |
| 44625 | For, if the phantom were a mere hallucination, as many claim, how did several see it at once? |
| 44625 | Had n''t they seen him with a sword on every''quid''they''d ever seen? |
| 44625 | He then called his first mate, as he was going off watch, and asked him how all things fared? |
| 44625 | How came you here when you are so ill?" |
| 44625 | How can a telepathic impulse from a distant mind cause a picture to appear in space, as it were, before the recipient? |
| 44625 | How can there be real ghost stories when there are no real ghosts? |
| 44625 | How do they manifest? |
| 44625 | How is yours, sir?'' |
| 44625 | How many of us have seen the microbe that kills? |
| 44625 | I called aloud:''May n''t I strike a light and show you the way along this dark hall?'' |
| 44625 | I exclaimed,''Good God, how and where?'' |
| 44625 | I fell on my knees before her and kissed-- what? |
| 44625 | I got annoyed and said,''Can you not speak, man, and tell me if anything is wrong?'' |
| 44625 | I had not been awake long enough to remember that she was dead, and exclaimed quite naturally,''Why, dear, what''s the matter?'' |
| 44625 | I said:''Who are you?'' |
| 44625 | I started up and said:''Edward, is there anything wrong?'' |
| 44625 | If not, why the coincidence? |
| 44625 | If we were to believe that a simple hallucination caused the figure, how account for this identification? |
| 44625 | In my dreams, in the wild fantasies that had oft- times visited by pillow at night-- in delirium, in reality, where? |
| 44625 | In short, we are back to our original question: What are ghosts? |
| 44625 | In what do they consist? |
| 44625 | In what may it be supposed to consist? |
| 44625 | It asked:''Who is the lady in white?'' |
| 44625 | It had not yet come in, and Sir Tristram asked:''Why are you so particularly eager about letters to- day?'' |
| 44625 | It is this: Can so- called Haunted Houses be_ cured_? |
| 44625 | It would lie down by my side; perhaps touch me; perhaps-- who could tell? |
| 44625 | Mrs. Claughton said:''Am I dreaming, or is it true?'' |
| 44625 | My curiosity, however, was far greater than my fear, and I kept asking myself what the thing was, and why it was there? |
| 44625 | On seeing Z. a few days afterwards, I inquired:''Did anything happen at your rooms on Saturday night?'' |
| 44625 | So far so good, but how about apparitions of the living? |
| 44625 | So, after all, as I said, is n''t there some reasonable ground for one''s fear at such times?" |
| 44625 | TELEPATHIC HALLUCINATIONS How may the theory be said to work? |
| 44625 | TRUE GHOST STORIES CHAPTER I WHAT IS A GHOST? |
| 44625 | The first chapter deals with the interesting question,"What is a Ghost?" |
| 44625 | Then, before you could say"knife,"the Germans had turned, and we were after them, fighting like ninety....''"''Where was this?'' |
| 44625 | This, therefore, is one very strong point in favor of this hypothesis; but if the ghost is a real, outstanding entity, how account for his clothes? |
| 44625 | WHAT IS A GHOST? |
| 44625 | WHERE? |
| 44625 | Was it real? |
| 44625 | Was it the result of imposture? |
| 44625 | Was it the work of imagination? |
| 44625 | Was there something amiss with my own hearing, then, that I could distinguish no word amid these deeply emphasized tones? |
| 44625 | Was this hallucination, or some vision of the unseen, coming in so unexpected a fashion? |
| 44625 | What did your mate see?'' |
| 44625 | What do they do with themselves? |
| 44625 | What do we mean by this? |
| 44625 | What had I seen? |
| 44625 | What has been said by way of explanation of these cases? |
| 44625 | What should I do if I were in darkness?'' |
| 44625 | What water had you?'' |
| 44625 | When we regained the avenue( in silence) Miss Moore asked Miss Langton,''What did you see?'' |
| 44625 | Where do ghosts live, and how? |
| 44625 | Who else would venture down without orders?'' |
| 44625 | Who is that at your desk?'' |
| 44625 | Who wrote the_ other_?'' |
| 44625 | Who?'' |
| 44625 | Why do they believe? |
| 44625 | Why do they return? |
| 44625 | Why should not the surviving spirit of man continue to influence us, by telepathy? |
| 44625 | Would they believe if they had no cause to do so? |
| 44625 | Yet if we can not believe this, how are we to explain this difficulty-- and the fact that ghosts wear ghostly garments? |
| 44625 | Yet, after all, why should they? |
| 44625 | Yet, if there are real, objective, outstanding ghosts, how can we explain them? |
| 44625 | You ask me why? |
| 44625 | You do n''t mean to tell me you did n''t see her?'' |
| 44625 | _ One_ case of this character might be explained in such manner; but could_ fifty_? |
| 44625 | _ What is_ this connection? |
| 44625 | _ Who_ or_ what_ was it that waked the captain and bade him save the ship? |
| 44625 | _ Why_ should Lord Brougham have dreamed this particular dream at the very moment his friend died? |
| 44625 | during its early years-- a terror which is, to a certain extent, shared by animals and even insects-- does all this signify nothing? |
| 32176 | And why so? |
| 32176 | But how by descent? |
| 32176 | But howe were they soe? |
| 32176 | Do you bid me farewel? |
| 32176 | Her days were gane,said Elva;"and where were the daughters?" |
| 32176 | How many hast thou killed for her? |
| 32176 | In what place? |
| 32176 | Sancta Marie,says he,"Bessie, quhy makis thow sa grit dule and sair greting for ony wardlie thing?" |
| 32176 | Shall I do it? |
| 32176 | What did she bid thee do? |
| 32176 | What more than Edward? |
| 32176 | What more? |
| 32176 | What remedy now? |
| 32176 | What remedy? |
| 32176 | What were their names? |
| 32176 | Where be they? |
| 32176 | Where dwelt the man and the child? |
| 32176 | Who are they? |
| 32176 | Would ye see me? |
| 32176 | ''What is your Name, I pray you?'' |
| 32176 | ''_[ 8] Fountainhall says that she was convict and burnt; but is this not a mistake? |
| 32176 | A young Gentleman, Brother to the Lady, seeing him, switcht him about the ears, saying,''You Warlok Cairle, what have you to do here?'' |
| 32176 | Ah, Master Tom, did you then know so much of prayer and the inclining of the counsels of God? |
| 32176 | And Isobell Straquhan, too, had she not powers banned even in the blessing? |
| 32176 | And among the rest Jennet Device,( was she our old acquaintance of perjured memory?) |
| 32176 | And can not a Palsy shake such a loose Leg as that? |
| 32176 | And did not Elizabeth Eastcheap see her knee, which looked as if it had been pricked in nine places with a thorn? |
| 32176 | And did not Joan Williford''s imp tell her that"though the Boate went chearfully oute it should not come so chearfully home?" |
| 32176 | And further, that while the needle was in her shoulder, as aforesaid, she said,''Am not I ane honest woman now?''" |
| 32176 | And had he not cause? |
| 32176 | And had not the devil once, when she was a young lassie, kissed her, and given her a new name? |
| 32176 | And if all that was not done by devilish art and craft, how was it done? |
| 32176 | And if all this was not proof against Marion Cumlaquoy, what would the Orkney courts hold as proof? |
| 32176 | And wherein differs thy Leapings from the Hoppings of a Frog, or Bouncings of a Goat, or Friskings of a Dog, or Gesticulations of a Monkey? |
| 32176 | Blew you are welcome, I never saw you before; I thought my Nose bled not for nothing, what News have you brought? |
| 32176 | But Cristiane took a great fright and said,"Lord, what wilt thou do with me?" |
| 32176 | But at the end of this time, Alice Coward, sister to Jane, happening to meet him and to say,"How do you do, my Honey?" |
| 32176 | Can''st thou Dance no better? |
| 32176 | Coming back to Anne West''s, he found her standing at her door in terrible undress, and to his complaint of why did she send her imps to molest him? |
| 32176 | Did experience ever open their eyes or shake their faith? |
| 32176 | Did she not reject him when left a widow, young and beautiful as but few were to be found in all the Scottish land? |
| 32176 | Do you say this is the day I must scratch the young Witch? |
| 32176 | Dost thou not twirl like a Calf that hath the Turn, and twitch up thy Houghs just like a Spring- hault Tit?" |
| 32176 | For what could they be but the malice of the devil sent by old Andrew in revenge? |
| 32176 | Gabriel laid him downe to sleepe Vpon the grounde[120] of holy weepe; Good Lord came walking by, Sleep''st thou, wak''st thou, Gabriel? |
| 32176 | Good Spirit--"But why did Bull bewitche him?" |
| 32176 | He then reproached her, saying,"How could she bid him pray for her, since she could not pray for herself?" |
| 32176 | Her husband, she had said, was embarrassed with this big black horse, and asked what he should do with it? |
| 32176 | Here was another child of God grievously mishandled; and what might not be done to the servants of the devil who had so evilly intreated him? |
| 32176 | Hob listened to her railings patiently, till commanded by the bailie to speak, when says he,"How came she then to know that I had called her a witch? |
| 32176 | How should he if no man was to kill him? |
| 32176 | If such things as these could be done in the light of the sun, why, should not Margaret Nin- Gilbert have supernatural power? |
| 32176 | If the devil could touch a Lord''s son, who was safe? |
| 32176 | Immediately after prayer was ended, a counterfeit voice cried out,"Would you know the witches of Glenluce? |
| 32176 | Is this the top of Skill and Pride, to shuffle Feet, and brandish Knees thus, and to trip like a Doe, and skip like a Squirrel? |
| 32176 | Ligh in[115] Leath[116] wand: What hath he in his other hand? |

| 32176 | Love you Prayer? |
| 32176 | Love you the Bible? |
| 32176 | Love you the Gospel? |
| 32176 | Love you the Mass? |
| 32176 | Man--"Why, is shee not a witche?" |
| 32176 | Mary went home, bewitched, and who but Catherine had done it? |
| 32176 | Mother Munnings was angry: who would not have been? |
| 32176 | Mr. Clark went to the woman and asked what had made her forehead bleed? |
| 32176 | Old Mother Baker asked whom they suspected? |
| 32176 | Pump thine Invention dry: Can not that universal Seed- plot of subtile Wiles and Stratagems spring up one new Method of Cutting Capers? |
| 32176 | Quoth she,"What a widdy would thou do with my belt?" |
| 32176 | Ransack the old Records of all past Times and Places in thy Memory: Can''st thou not there find out some better way of Trampling? |
| 32176 | Rygorously? |
| 32176 | Says the devil,"Saw ye that? |
| 32176 | Says the other,''Are there any other in Glasgow of that name?'' |
| 32176 | She said that about a year and a half ago, she being in great poverty, was induced by one Catherine Green( her husband''s sister?) |
| 32176 | She was swum and she floated; whereat a gentleman asked her"how it was possible that she could be so impudent as not to confesse herselfe?" |
| 32176 | So was not Mary Johnson an undoubted witch with all this testimony against her? |
| 32176 | Subtract from this account the possible and the certain-- the possible frauds and the certain lies-- and what is left? |
| 32176 | Suddenly the child cried out,"Did you ever see one more like a Witch than she is?" |
| 32176 | The chief witness against her was her little daughter- in- law( step- child?) |
| 32176 | The next day he came with Lierd, and asked"why she was so snappish yesterday?" |
| 32176 | The old woman turning against the Lady, said, half sorrowfully,"Madam, why do you use me thus? |
| 32176 | The witch was hanged: could they do less in such a clear case as this? |
| 32176 | Then came in the man''s natural voice, addressing the spirit:"Come, come, prithee tell me why did they bewitch me?" |
| 32176 | There was poor Patrick Lowrie, fylit July 23, 1605--what had he done? |
| 32176 | This precious wretch( was it John Kincaid?) |
| 32176 | To whom did she make this prayer? |
| 32176 | To whom she answered,"What canst thou do at him?" |
| 32176 | Turning to Jennet, the good man''s daughter, he cried,"Jennet Campbell, Jennet Campbell, wilt thou cast me thy belt?" |
| 32176 | Upon Andrew Wobster-- who had put a linen towel round her throat, half choking her, and to whom she said angrily,"Quhat wirreys thow me? |
| 32176 | Was Catherine''s brand like a"blew spot, or a little tate, or reid spots, like flea- biting?" |
| 32176 | Was Tom, the Glasgow student, afraid of being made a weaver, consent or none demanded? |
| 32176 | Was not all this enough to hang a dozen Julian Coxes? |
| 32176 | Watching with Matthew Hopkins, he asked Elizabeth Clarke if she were never afraid of her imps? |
| 32176 | What evidence could be stronger? |
| 32176 | What further evidence could possibly be required to prove that Isobel Cockie was a witch, and one that"might not be suffered to live"? |
| 32176 | What is wightier than a Kinge in his owne lande? |
| 32176 | What is yonder that casts a light so farrandly? |
| 32176 | What,''says she,''dost thou say I shall be worse handled than ever I was? |
| 32176 | When Janet Irving was brought to trial( 1616) for unholy dealings with the foul fiend, it was proved-- for was it not sworn to? |
| 32176 | When asked of what colour were they? |
| 32176 | When he had come to her,''Sandie,''says she,''what is this you have done to my brother William?'' |
| 32176 | When the black dog came he said,"What wouldst thou have me to do with yonder man?" |
| 32176 | When they asked, Love you Witchcraft? |
| 32176 | Who ever knew of evil example waiting for its followers? |
| 32176 | Who was safe, if a half- fed scrofulous woman had fancies and the megrims? |
| 32176 | Who would dare to doubt such testimony as this? |
| 32176 | [ 155] That date seems wrong: ought it not to be 1699? |

| 32176 | is this the Dancing that Richard gave himself to thee for? |
| 32176 | not so big as a well- trussed man on all- fours?) |
| 32176 | or did they die in their belief that the stake and the gallows were the finest remedies known for disordered functions or organic mischief? |
| 32176 | or with"the flesh sunk in and hallow?" |
| 32176 | says she,"what''s thou doing here, Isabel Heriot? |
| 32176 | shall I never be believed till it be past Time? |
| 32176 | that I shall now have my Fits, when I shall both hear and see and know every Body? |
| 32176 | to whom she made this notable answer,"What, doe you thinke I am afraid of my children?" |
| 32176 | what dost thou say? |
| 32176 | what hast thou done? |
| 32176 | whither are you taking me?" |

| 35958 | [ 6] We may here inquire wherein lies the necessity of a cause opposed to a contingent cause? 35958 An event proved to be necessary in relation to an individual-- is this event likewise necessary in the whole train of its relations? 35958 And how does will cause volitions? 35958 And how is that new volition or antecedent to be obtained? 35958 And is the truth of the Bible unsettled? 35958 And what answer could be given? 35958 And what is this consequence but pantheism? 35958 Are they opposed and exclusive of each other in reference to the future? 35958 Are we called upon to ascend higher? 35958 As the motive therefore determines the divine volition, what is the nature of the connexion between the motive and the volition? 35958 But do we find this distinction of natural and moral ability in the common notions of men? 35958 But has not the act of the will a cause? 35958 But have I done wrong not to be seduced by his genius, nor won and commanded by his piety to the belief of his philosophy? 35958 But how are we to know whether the motive of every volition has this characteristic of agreeableness, or of most agreeableness, as the case may be? 35958 But how do those who deny a self- determining power account for these facts? 35958 But how do we conceive of cause as producing phenomena? 35958 But how does the cause produce the phenomenon? 35958 But how does the will cause its own acts? 35958 But how opposed-- is choice contingent? 35958 But in what lies the selection? 35958 But is this necessity a necessity_ per se_, or a determined necessity? 35958 But show me, he that can, that they are not logical deductions from this system? 35958 But to a being endowed with prescience, what prevents a positive and infallible knowledge of a future contingent event? 35958 But what has determined you then? 35958 But what is the aim of this preaching? 35958 But what is the cause of volition? 35958 But what is the nature of such a cause? 35958 But what is the relation of the phenomena to the substance? 35958 But what is this idea opposed to necessity, and how does the will come under it? 35958 But what is this something opposed to necessity? 35958 But what kind of certainty is this? 35958 But what new characteristic appears in this relation? 35958 But wherein lies the deficiency? 35958 But why does he determine always according to the most reasonable? 35958 But why does it seem most agreeable to him? 35958 But why the reluctance to escape from this universal necessity? 35958 But will any man assume that necessity is the_ only_ ground of certain knowledge and conviction? 35958 Can any effect be without a cause? 35958 Can we not believe that the Judge of all the Earth will do right, although in his free and omnipotent will he have the power to do wrong? 35958 Can we not enjoy this confidence, while we allow him absolute freedom of choice? 35958 Do the abettors of this system admit that there is something opposed to necessity? 35958 Do they admit the possibility that any choice which is, might not have been at all, or might have been different from what it is? 35958 Do they affirm that choice is opposed to necessity? 35958 Do they not feel that the volition has a metaphysical possibility as well as that the sequent of the volition has a physical possibility? 35958 Do you say it represents phenomena as existing without cause? 35958 Do_ you_ likewise have a natural and spontaneous judgement against a necessitated will? 35958 Does Edwards appeal to consciousness? 35958 Does not such a proposition detract from the omnipotence of God, in the same proportion in which it aims to exalt his omniscience? |
| 35958 | Does the objector allege, as a palpable absurdity, that there is, after all, nothing to account for the particular determination? |
| 35958 | Does this certainty possess degrees? |
| 35958 | Every cause produces effects by exertion or acting; but what is the cause of its acting? |
| 35958 | Explain,--why do you endeavour to evade the conclusion of this system when you come to volition? |
| 35958 | Have we here anything beyond stated antecedents and sequents? |
| 35958 | How do you know this? |
| 35958 | How does Edwards prove this? |
| 35958 | How does fire burn, or the sun raise the tides? |
| 35958 | How does this prove it? |
| 35958 | How does volition raise the arm or move the foot? |
| 35958 | How is cause known? |
| 35958 | How shall we escape from these difficulties? |
| 35958 | How then can we explain the fact that it does pass out of this state of indifferency to a choice or volition? |
| 35958 | If God''s will determines in the direction of the reasonable because it is most agreeable, then we ask, why is it the most agreeable? |
| 35958 | If cause have not within itself a_ nisus_ to produce phenomena, then wherein is it a cause? |
| 35958 | In selecting one of the squares, does the will act irrespective of reason and sensitivity, or not? |
| 35958 | In this place, I shall simply inquire, how the will may be conceived as coming under the idea of contingency? |
| 35958 | In what lies the capability of actions having a moral quality? |
| 35958 | Indeed, can we conceive of God otherwise than immediately knowing all things? |
| 35958 | Indeed, what are human punishments, when properly considered, but divine punishments? |
| 35958 | Is cause visible? |
| 35958 | Is it a chimera? |
| 35958 | Is it always observed? |
| 35958 | Is it because responsibility and the duties of morality and religion are more immediately connected with the will? |
| 35958 | Is it because the particular determination is the most reasonable, that it seems most agreeable? |
| 35958 | Is it because to determine according to the most reasonable, seems most agreeable? |
| 35958 | Is it because to go in the direction of the agreeable seems most rational? |
| 35958 | Is it because to go in the direction of the rational seems most agreeable? |
| 35958 | Is it of an antecedent necessity? |
| 35958 | Is it of an antecedent necessity? |
| 35958 | Is there any ground of certain knowledge respecting future volitions? |
| 35958 | Is this a necessary connexion? |
| 35958 | Is this a possible and rational conception? |
| 35958 | Is this conception a possible and rational conception? |
| 35958 | Is this connexion a necessary connexion? |
| 35958 | Is this_ nisus_ itself a phenomenon? |
| 35958 | Must its_ nisus_, its self- determining energy, or its volition, follow a uniform and inevitable law? |
| 35958 | Now the same action may be committed by a man or by a brute-- and the man alone will be guilty: why is the man guilty? |
| 35958 | Now what is the ground of all this clamour against contingency? |
| 35958 | Now what is the simple idea of necessity contained in these two points of view, with their two- fold distinction? |
| 35958 | Now what reason can exist, in any given case, why the volition or sense of the most agreeable is not produced? |
| 35958 | Now when the will obeys the laws of the reason, shall it be asked, what is the cause of the act of obedience? |
| 35958 | Now, is it true likewise that the cause which we call will, must, under given circumstances, necessarily produce such and such phenomena? |
| 35958 | On the first supposition, the question comes up, how the different arrangements and conditions of the objects are brought about? |
| 35958 | On the second supposition, how the changes in the state of the sensitivity are effected? |
| 35958 | On the third supposition, how the changes in both, singly and mutually, are effected? |
| 35958 | Shall God then be angry at the sight of the iron link? |
| 35958 | Shall it be said that it seems most agreeable to him? |
| 35958 | Shall we adopt the psychology of Edwards, and make the will and the sensitivity one? |
| 35958 | That the will is determined by the strongest motive;--and what is the strongest motive? |
| 35958 | The argument must therefore turn upon these two points: First, is contingency a possible conception, or is it in itself contradictory and absurd? |
| 35958 | The greatest apparent good, or the most agreeable:--what constitutes the greatest apparent good, or the most agreeable? |
| 35958 | The question now arises, how this one simple capacity of volition comes to produce such various volitions? |
| 35958 | The real question at issue is, how are we to account for these facts? |
| 35958 | The will now goes in the direction of reason, and now in the direction of passion,--but why? |
| 35958 | To this stands contrasted the system of Edwards; and what is this system? |
| 35958 | We are concerned only with this:--Do_ we_ do right? |
| 35958 | We now return to the question:--Is the connexion between motive and volition necessary? |
| 35958 | Well, then, it is asked, is not this liberty sufficient to constitute responsibility? |
| 35958 | What is cause? |
| 35958 | What is liberty? |
| 35958 | What is moral inability? |
| 35958 | What is necessity? |
| 35958 | What is the meaning of this conception? |
| 35958 | What is this antecedent? |
| 35958 | What is this cause? |
| 35958 | What is this nature? |
| 35958 | What kind of certainty is it, then? |
| 35958 | What moves the will to go in the direction of the sensitivity? |
| 35958 | When nothing is required to the performance of a deed but a volition, do men conceive of any inability whatever? |
| 35958 | When the will obeys the strongest desire, shall we ask, what is the cause of the act of obedience? |
| 35958 | Where then do we observe this_ nisus?_ Only in will. |
| 35958 | Who then is God? |
| 35958 | Why does the will obey the reason? |
| 35958 | Why? |
| 35958 | Will not every one admit, that"when men act_ voluntarily and do what they please_, they do what suits them best, and what is most agreeable to them?" |
| 35958 | You exhort and persuade him to arouse himself into activity; but what is his real condition according to this system? |
| 35958 | because it is most agreeable: but why does the will obey because it is most agreeable? |
| 35958 | do_ we_ do wrong? |
| 35958 | why do you claim liberty here? |
| 743 | And wherefore not? |
| 743 | Is the sun the principal cause of the temperature of the earth? 743 What went ye out into the wilderness to see"said Jesus Christ:"a reed shaken with the wind?" |

| 743 | --Yet-- so capricious is fame-- a century has nearly elapsed, since Pope said, Who now reads Cowley? |
| 743 | A primary enquiry under this head is as to the duration of life: Is it long, or short? |
| 743 | Am not I therefore( the person engaged in reading the present Essay) the only being in existence, an entire universe to myself?" |
| 743 | And is this mysterious and concealed way of proceeding one of the forms through which we are to pass in the school of liberty? |
| 743 | And is this the proud attitude of liberty, to which we are so eager to aspire? |
| 743 | And shall we teach men to discharge this debt in the dark? |
| 743 | And to whom, said the king, wilt thou appeal? |
| 743 | And who does not feel that every thing depends upon the creed we embrace, and the discipline we exercise over our own souls? |

| 743 | Are the virtues of the best men, the noblest philosophers, and the most disinterested patriots of antiquity, nothing? |
| 743 | But does any one, for himself or his posterity, expect to see this realised? |
| 743 | But does it record nothing else? |
| 743 | But how does the case really stand? |
| 743 | But how does the matter really stand? |
| 743 | But how shall I most effectually conceal the truth from him? |
| 743 | But is it always so? |
| 743 | But what I want to ascertain is, why the bare thought of doing so takes a momentary hold of the mind of the person addressed? |
| 743 | But what are all these, when compared with those that fill the whole expanse, the boundless field of aether? |
| 743 | But what has this to do with the world in which we live? |
| 743 | Could I?" |
| 743 | Did ever any one put out his penny to interest in this fashion for eighteen hundred years? |
| 743 | Does not all this strongly argue the solidity of the science to which they belong? |

| 743 | He might be ready to exclaim, with Hazael in the Scriptures,"Is thy servant more than man, that he should do this great thing?" |
| 743 | He says, What am I, that I should be the object of this? |
| 743 | How are we sure that they do then? |
| 743 | How comes it then that our nature labours under so bitter an aspersion? |
| 743 | How does this correspond with the goodness of God, which will suffer no mass of matter in his creation to remain unoccupied? |

| 743 | I have here instanced in the case of the peripatetic: but of how many classes and occupations of human life may not the same thing be affirmed? |
| 743 | I say, that one of the thoughts that will occur to many of the persons who should be so invited, will be,"Shall I take him at his word?" |

| 743 | Is it not the first ejaculation of the miserable,"Oh, that I could fly from myself? |
| 743 | Is its cause something of absolute and substantive existence without me, or is it not? |
| 743 | Is not the Iliad a thing new, and that will for ever remain new? |
| 743 | Is this the picture we desire to see of genuine liberty, philanthropic, desirous of good to all, and overflowing with all generous emotions? |
| 743 | May I be allowed to tell it to my wife or my child? |
| 743 | May not lines which have reached to so amazing a length without meeting, be in reality parallel lines? |
| 743 | Must there not be in this subtle distribution much of what is arbitrary and sciolistic? |
| 743 | Of these hours how many belong to the province of intellect? |
| 743 | The experience we have had as to the truth of the smaller, does it authorise us to consider the larger as unquestionable? |
| 743 | The instant this question is proposed, I hear myself replied to from all quarters: What is there so well known as the brevity of human life? |
| 743 | The preceptor may occasionally perhaps prescribe to the pupil a severe task; and the young adventurer may say, Can I be expected to accomplish this? |
| 743 | Then what may I not have to fear? |
| 743 | Then what may be chance to say? |
| 743 | Then what would not omnipotence effect? |
| 743 | These new planets also we are told are fragments of a larger planet: how came this larger planet never to have been discovered? |
| 743 | This brings us back to the question:"Is there indeed nothing new under the sun?" |
| 743 | This certainly is a fearful judgment awarded upon our species: but is it true? |
| 743 | What can be expected from the buds of the most auspicious infancy, if encountered in their earliest stage with the rigorous blasts of a polar climate? |
| 743 | What can be more clear and sound in explanation, than the love of a parent to his child? |
| 743 | What can be more different than the gentry of the west end of this metropolis, and the money- making dwellers in the east? |
| 743 | What did this answer imply as to the political government of the country where it was given? |
| 743 | What has not man effected by the boldness of his conceptions and the adventurousness of his spirit? |
| 743 | What indeed is life, unless so far as it is enjoyed? |
| 743 | What is it, that presents to every eye the image of liberty, and compels every heart to confess, This is the temple where she resides? |
| 743 | What is the true explanation of these determinations of the human will? |
| 743 | What looks of reproach may he cast upon me? |
| 743 | What more unlike than a soldier and a sailor? |
| 743 | What solution so natural, as that they are produced by beings like myself, the duplicates, with certain variations, of what I feel within me? |
| 743 | What then were the obstacles, that should in any degree counteract my smooth and rapid progress in the studies suggested to me? |
| 743 | When all these demands have been supplied, how many hours will be left for intellectual occupation? |
| 743 | When the loose mountain trembles from on high, Shall gravitation cease, if you go by? |
| 743 | Where is the man who can say that no unconscious bias has influenced him in the progress of his investigation? |
| 743 | Which of us is happy? |
| 743 | Who can behold the human eye, suddenly suffused with moisture, or gushing with tears unbid, and the quivering lip, without unspeakable emotion? |
| 743 | Who is it that says,"There is no love but among equals?" |
| 743 | Who shall pronounce that, under very different circumstances, his conclusions would not have been essentially other than they are? |
| 743 | Who shall set bounds to the everlasting variety of nature, as she has recorded her creations in the heart of man? |
| 743 | Why did the liberal- minded man perform his first act of benevolence? |
| 743 | Why do these men take so different courses? |
| 743 | Why is it then that disbelief or doubt should still subsist in a question so fully decided? |
| 743 | Yet how many motives are there, constraining him to abide in an affirmative conclusion? |
| 743 | Yet may not the mean temperature of the Georgium Sidus be nearly the same as that of the earth? |
| 743 | Yet what is human speech for the most part but mere imitation? |
| 743 | and whence comes it? |
| 743 | every thing is very good?" |
| 19549 | Do you want this? |
| 19549 | How tall? |
| 19549 | Ich( I) is not yet said, but if I ask"Who is''me''?" |
| 19549 | Money, you? |
| 19549 | On the eighth day she asked her brother''what he was helping himself to?'' 19549 Seem"to what part of the child? |
| 19549 | What is that? |
| 19549 | When? |
| 19549 | Where is mamma? |
| 19549 | Where is the baby in the glass? |
| 19549 | Where? |
| 19549 | Who gave you this? |
| 19549 | Why is he called the sad? |
| 19549 | Whyis heard by him, as a rule, less often than"What?" |
| 19549 | With sealing- wax? |
| 19549 | ''And that? |
| 19549 | ''But what is that on the pavement, red?'' |
| 19549 | ''What are they like?'' |
| 19549 | ''Who is that that has passed us just now?'' |
| 19549 | ( Little siskin, where is your little house? |
| 19549 | ( What shall we do to- morrow?) |
| 19549 | ( how tall?) |
| 19549 | ( what is that, pray?) |
| 19549 | ( where) and Wohin? |
| 19549 | ( whither) had the same meaning( that of the French_ où?_), and this as late as in the fourth year. |
| 19549 | ("How tall?") |
| 19549 | ("Wer will unter die Soldaten?") |
| 19549 | ); sometimes_ was?_ four or five times when he had been spoken to. |
| 19549 | Answer:"Go, I"( i. e.,"Do you stay or go?" |
| 19549 | Ask,"What is the animal called?" |
| 19549 | Being asked,"How do you like them?" |
| 19549 | But, if two, why not several? |
| 19549 | Does he recognize himself in it( p. 196,_ et seq._)? |
| 19549 | Finally, he had at this time been taught to respond to the question,"Where is the little rogue?" |
| 19549 | For it did not require frequent repetition of the question,"How tall is the child?" |
| 19549 | For previously, when I asked the child as he was eating,"Does it taste good?" |
| 19549 | For the child, when asked"Where is grandpapa?" |
| 19549 | For what is the significance of the fact, that"to the child his feet, hands, teeth, seem a plaything foreign to himself"? |
| 19549 | Further, to the question,"Do you like to sleep in the large room?" |
| 19549 | Grandpapa?" |
| 19549 | He asked,"Where is Mima?" |
| 19549 | He comes out of his father''s room and I ask,"Well, have you said good- night to papa?" |
| 19549 | He deliberates for as much as twelve seconds when the question is asked him,"Where is the rogue?" |
| 19549 | He has also for a long time understood the"Where?" |
| 19549 | He immediately imitated me, and afterward when he was asked"What does mamma do?" |
| 19549 | He jests:_ Nein, Bergapots_, or,_ What kind of mots are those?_ He will not eat an apple until he has learned what the name of it is. |
| 19549 | He knows very well who is meant when he is asked,"Where is grandmamma? |
| 19549 | He now asks questions a good deal in general, especially_ What is that called?_ e. g.,_ What are chestnuts called?_"Horse- chestnuts." |
| 19549 | He now asks questions a good deal in general, especially_ What is that called?_ e. g.,_ What are chestnuts called?_"Horse- chestnuts." |
| 19549 | He now asks,_ Where is the dear Jesus?_"In heaven." |
| 19549 | He saw his image immediately after waking, seemed very much surprised at it, gazed fixedly at it, and when at last I asked,"Where is Axel?" |
| 19549 | He then slipped a handkerchief over his face and asked her to look again, when she playfully pulled it off and asked,''What is that?'' |
| 19549 | He went to the window and called out,''What is that moving?'' |
| 19549 | How can round and angular be distinguished, when only colors and gross differences of intensity and saturation are perceived? |
| 19549 | How is it as to the existence and practicability of the nervous conduction, and the genesis of the centers? |
| 19549 | How is it, now, with the normal child, who is learning to speak? |
| 19549 | If I ask now,"From whom have you learned that?" |
| 19549 | If I ask, e. g.,"What does the duck say?" |
| 19549 | If he is asked"Who is_ I_?" |
| 19549 | If the child, when he has eaten enough, is asked,"Do you want milk?" |
| 19549 | If, e. g., I asked,"Where is the nose?" |
| 19549 | In the eighteenth month,"Where is Omama?" |
| 19549 | In the eighth month, there is unmistakable understanding of what is said; e. g.,"Where is the tick- tack?" |
| 19549 | In the eleventh month, at the question"Where is mamma?" |
| 19549 | In the twentieth month, her mother, after telling her a story, asked,"Who, pray, is this, I?" |
| 19549 | In the twenty- first month the child laughs at his image in the glass and points to it when I ask,"Where is Axel?" |
| 19549 | In the_ thirty- first month_ two new questions make their appearance: The child asks,_ Welches Papier nehmen?_( What paper take?) |
| 19549 | In the_ thirty- first month_ two new questions make their appearance: The child asks,_ Welches Papier nehmen?_( What paper take?) |
| 19549 | In these already learned co- ordinated movements made upon hearing the words"Please, How tall? |
| 19549 | It is true that my question,"What is that?" |
| 19549 | Just so in the case of the question,"Would you rather have the apple or the pear?" |
| 19549 | Lately, however, he listened very earnestly to the three stanzas of"Möpschen,"and when I asked"What now?" |
| 19549 | Lately, when he asked for some foolish thing, I said to him,"Sha''n''t I bring the moon for you, too?" |
| 19549 | On the ten hundred and twenty- eighth day_ warum_( why?) |
| 19549 | Once I asked him very distinctly,"Where''s the moon?" |
| 19549 | Once when I said,"How tall?" |
| 19549 | One thousand and twenty- eighth day,"Why?" |
| 19549 | Only interrogative word is still"Where?" |
| 19549 | Only the question,"Where is the thumb?" |
| 19549 | Only to the questions,"Where is papa?" |
| 19549 | Or we say,"Will you come? |
| 19549 | Progress now became pretty rapid, so that at the end of the seventh month the questions,"Where is your eye? |
| 19549 | Seldom speaks of himself in third person; gradually uses"Du"in address; uses"What?" |
| 19549 | She also understood simple sentences, such as,"Where is the fire?" |
| 19549 | So with the frequent question,_ Wie macht man das nur?_( How is that done?) |
| 19549 | So with the frequent question,_ Wie macht man das nur?_( How is that done?) |
| 19549 | Still, it seems remarkable that I did not once hear the child say"When?" |
| 19549 | The answer that has been learned to the question,"How old are you?" |
| 19549 | The auxiliaries are often omitted or employed in strange misformations, e. g.,"Where have you been?" |
| 19549 | The boy must have thought,"How would it be if I felt of it?" |
| 19549 | The child is asked,"Where is the moon? |
| 19549 | The child picks it up quickly, holds it behind him, and to my question,"Where is the key?" |
| 19549 | The first question,_ isn das?_ from"Was ist denn das?" |
| 19549 | The first question,_ isn das?_ from"Was ist denn das?" |
| 19549 | The frequent_ ist das_ signifies merely"das ist,"or it is the echo of the oft- heard question,"Was ist das?" |
| 19549 | The little verses I sing at the same time amuse him, e. g.,"Zeislein, Zeislein, wo ist dein Häuslein?" |
| 19549 | The mother asked some one,"Do you hear?" |
| 19549 | The old tricks,"How tall is the child?" |
| 19549 | The questions,"Where is papa? |
| 19549 | The sentence ran,_ Warum nach Hause gehen? |
| 19549 | The sole interrogative word continues still to be"Where?" |
| 19549 | The verb"sein"( be) was very much distorted:_ Warum warst du nicht fleissig gebist?_( gebist for gewesen)( why have you not been industrious?). |
| 19549 | The verb"sein"( be) was very much distorted:_ Warum warst du nicht fleissig gebist?_( gebist for gewesen)( why have you not been industrious?). |
| 19549 | The word"Nein"( no) he uses as a sign of refusal; e. g.,"Will you have some roast meat?" |
| 19549 | The word"Where?" |
| 19549 | Then the witch said:"Nucker, Nucker Neisle, who is crawling in my little house?" |
| 19549 | Thus, this very child( in the nineteenth month), when her favorite song,"Who will go for a Soldier?" |
| 19549 | To all questions of an earlier period,"Where is the forehead, nose, mouth, chin, beard, hair, cheek, eye, ear, shoulder?" |
| 19549 | To be sure, the question"Where have you been?" |
| 19549 | To my question, after his grandfather had gone away,"Where is Grandpapa now?" |
| 19549 | To the question of a stranger,"What is your name?" |
| 19549 | To the question"Where have you been?" |
| 19549 | To the question,"Did it taste good?" |
| 19549 | To the question,"How do we eat?" |
| 19549 | To the question,"Was thun wir morgen?" |
| 19549 | To the question,"Where is Emmy?" |
| 19549 | To the question,"Where is the eye?" |
| 19549 | To the questions,"Where is your ear, your tooth, nose, hand, your fingers, mamma''s ear, papa''s nose?" |
| 19549 | To- day, when I asked him"Did you see papa ride?" |
| 19549 | Upon the question,"How tall?" |
| 19549 | When a wheel creaked on the carriage, the child asked,_ Was macht nur so_( What makes that)? |
| 19549 | When asked,"Where is Tick- tack?" |
| 19549 | When at tea she took notice of the tray, observed the shining of the japan- work, and asked''what the color was round the edge?'' |
| 19549 | When one eye had been pointed out, I asked,"Where is the other eye?" |
| 19549 | When some one asked,"Where is the brush?" |
| 19549 | When the child''s father asked later,"Well, Adolph, what did you see in the park?" |
| 19549 | When, therefore, the same child in his fifth year, to the improper question,"Whom do you like better, papa or mamma?" |
| 19549 | Wo? |
| 19549 | _ 17th Month._--He speaks his own name correctly, and when asked"Where is Adolph?" |
| 19549 | _ Is there any thinking without words?_ The question takes this shape. |
| 19549 | _ Ja wohl._ Being asked"Whose feet are these?" |
| 19549 | _ Warum macht der Frödrich die[ Blumen] Töpfe rein?_( Why does Frederick clean the flower- pots?) |
| 19549 | _ Warum macht der Frödrich die[ Blumen] Töpfe rein?_( Why does Frederick clean the flower- pots?) |
| 19549 | _ Warum wird das Holz gesnitten?_( for"gesägt"--Why is the wood sawed?) |
| 19549 | _ Warum wird das Holz gesnitten?_( for"gesägt"--Why is the wood sawed?) |
| 19549 | _ Warum?__ weshalb?_ he asked at every opportunity; very often, too,_ was?__ wer?__ wo?_( Why? |
| 19549 | _ Warum?__ weshalb?_ he asked at every opportunity; very often, too,_ was?__ wer?__ wo?_( Why? |
| 19549 | _ Warum?__ weshalb?_ he asked at every opportunity; very often, too,_ was?__ wer?__ wo?_( Why? |

| 19549 | _ Warum?__ weshalb?_ he asked at every opportunity; very often, too,_ was?__ wer?__ wo?_( Why? |
| 19549 | _ What are these pears called?_"Bergamots." |
| 19549 | _ man_; or"Who is there?" |
| 19549 | _ there?_"Nun?" |
| 19549 | _ there?_"Nun?" |
| 19549 | a much more frequent one, is likewise answered correctly, although the word"What?" |
| 19549 | ach!__ 18th Month._--He comprehends and answers questions; e. g.,"Where are you going?" |
| 19549 | along with holding up his arms, in order to make him execute this movement every time that he heard the words,"Wie gross?" |
| 19549 | and at my image when asked,"Where is papa?" |
| 19549 | and that"the child bit his own arm as he was accustomed to bite objects with which he was not acquainted"? |
| 19549 | and the child replied,"_ Mamma"_"And who is that, you?" |
| 19549 | and"How?" |
| 19549 | and"Where is the little rogue?" |
| 19549 | and"Where is the rogue?" |
| 19549 | and"Which?" |
| 19549 | chair? |
| 19549 | e. g.,_ Where is ball?_ The demonstratives_ da_( there) and_ dort_( yonder)(_ dort ist nass_--wet) were more frequently spoken correctly in answer. |
| 19549 | ear? |
| 19549 | eidi_ wer[ krabbelt] mir am Haüsle?" |
| 19549 | he answered,_ O ja ganz lieberich gern_; and when I asked,"Who, pray, speaks so?" |
| 19549 | he is accustomed to shut both eyes quickly at the same time and to open them again, and then to point to my eye; to the question,"Axel''s eye?" |
| 19549 | he responds by pointing to his own; to the question,"The other eye?" |
| 19549 | head? |
| 19549 | ich will nicht nach Hause_( Why go home? |
| 19549 | is answered with_ i m garten_;"How are Omama and Opapa?" |
| 19549 | mamma? |
| 19549 | means,"Have you money?" |
| 19549 | mouth? |
| 19549 | nose? |
| 19549 | or"oo?" |
| 19549 | or"ooss?" |
| 19549 | sofa?" |
| 19549 | the child would turn toward her mother, and in like manner toward the father at the question,"papa"? |
| 19549 | the clock? |
| 19549 | the eye? |
| 19549 | the light?" |
| 19549 | the nose?" |
| 19549 | the table? |
| 19549 | was noticed in the twentieth month; the interrogative word_ was?_( what) in the twenty- second month. |
| 19549 | what? |
| 19549 | where? |
| 19549 | wherefore? |
| 19549 | who? |
| 19549 | with_ sund_( for gesund, well);"What is Omama doing?" |
| 39769 | ''Are we not children born of the one Father?'' 39769 ''But,''I said at last,''are n''t you going to tell me what has so unnerved you?'' |
| 39769 | Am I my brother''s keeper? |
| 39769 | Are n''t you well? |
| 39769 | At last I said,''Do n''t you think we had better leave to- day? 39769 But surely you heard the piano being played?" |
| 39769 | But what sort of ghosts haunt it? |
| 39769 | Do we need anything else, Phædrus? 39769 Have many people seen him? |
| 39769 | Have you known any one who has ever seen anything? |
| 39769 | How is it done? |
| 39769 | Is it always the same figure? |
| 39769 | It is a very large house, I suppose? |
| 39769 | Seen things? 39769 Then what did you see?" |
| 39769 | Then you all heard it? |
| 39769 | Well, what of it? 39769 What did she think of the bathroom?" |
| 39769 | What sort of figures? |
| 39769 | What the devil is he to do? |
| 39769 | Who was the man who killed himself in this room? |
| 39769 | You also? |
| 39769 | ''What was it he had to do? |
| 39769 | A day or two afterwards I said suddenly to the old family lawyer,"Was there ever a question of Uncle William leaving his money to me?" |
| 39769 | After a few minutes of friendly conversation, which had taken an amusingly domestic turn, he said to me,"Now, how much has your husband got a year?" |
| 39769 | After a little trivial conversation I said,"By the way, who is that brown man, dressed like a Satyr, who has been with you lately?" |
| 39769 | Again, why did not Mrs. Sinclair see this ghost when her mother so plainly saw it? |
| 39769 | Are burglars ever as rash as that? |
| 39769 | Are the ghosts who haunt a dwelling indifferent to, or hostile to, the presence of their companions in the flesh? |
| 39769 | As the horses were starting I called out to Miss Bates--"Tell me what''s going to win''The Cambridgeshire?''" |
| 39769 | As the housemaid prepared to follow her I said,"Am I the only person sleeping on this floor?" |
| 39769 | But was every one in the house clairaudient? |
| 39769 | But where? |
| 39769 | CHAPTER IX POMPEY AND THE DUCHESS Have animals souls? |
| 39769 | CHAPTER XVIII HAUNTED ROOMS How is it that one can"feel"a room is haunted? |
| 39769 | Could anything be more banal, more commonplace? |
| 39769 | Did he contrive to drop the"tip"into my mind, open at that moment and eager to catch the response? |
| 39769 | Did not the Christ warn his followers that the Path must be trodden more or less alone? |
| 39769 | Do pictures originate the artist? |
| 39769 | Do you wish to see me or my husband?" |
| 39769 | Every one is interested in getting rid of this weird disturbance, but how to do it? |
| 39769 | For what, after all, is a mystic, but one who enters into possession of the inner life? |
| 39769 | Had I not heard them stealthily beginning the ascent of the stairs, and grow louder the nearer they approached me? |
| 39769 | He sat up in bed and called out,"Who is it?" |
| 39769 | How do ghosts contrive to make such a noise? |
| 39769 | How few people realize that they have never seen themselves? |
| 39769 | How many can tell what they really look like? |
| 39769 | How often one is asked the question:"What is a medium?" |
| 39769 | How shall I describe the sight? |
| 39769 | How treat, as having right to equal power, the wise and the ignorant, the criminal and the saint? |
| 39769 | How well I know the look and the words accompanying it:"Are you Violet Tweedale, the novelist? |
| 39769 | How would she deal with the next story I am going to relate? |
| 39769 | How would this lady treat the"Castel a Mare"scream? |
| 39769 | How, she asked, could a firm social foundation ever be built up on this utter disregard of nature? |
| 39769 | Human beings having a rag and trying to scare the neighborhood? |
| 39769 | I sat down again and began to wonder if Lord Colin was ill, or was he dead, and why was he carrying lilacs? |
| 39769 | I was alone, but for how long would I remain alone? |
| 39769 | I wonder why? |
| 39769 | I would have laid hold of them and said,"Do you hear that knocking? |
| 39769 | If God be just and good, then what is the explanation of this hideous discrepancy in human lives? |
| 39769 | If God is love, who could reconcile with any comprehensive idea of justice and law in the world the lives and experiences of common humanity? |
| 39769 | If I had the courage to destroy them, what sort of condition would the bed be in after? |
| 39769 | If the whole household was in the room what could they do? |
| 39769 | In spite of this long friendship they were not the sort of people to whom I could have said,"Would you mind giving me another room? |
| 39769 | Is he always there?" |
| 39769 | Is it logical to suppose that there is no scheme of evolution for the immortal soul, in which it can preserve its individuality through the ages? |
| 39769 | Lady Sykes laughed and replied,"Which are they?" |
| 39769 | May it not be that this disembodied entity attached itself to my brother whilst he was out, and like a lost dog followed him home? |
| 39769 | My father had put his invariable question to the old woman,"Have you seen her again?" |
| 39769 | Nothing to be frightened of in that, is there?'' |
| 39769 | Now what does the subconsciousness contain? |
| 39769 | Now will you give me your promise never to mention this subject to me again? |
| 39769 | On the spur of the moment I said to my host,"Would n''t it be uncanny if we were to see a strange face looking down on us?" |
| 39769 | Only then will come the perplexed question: Where can I see in all this overwhelming misery the Divine hand of love and justice? |
| 39769 | Rats? |
| 39769 | She paused, and I ventured to ask,"But what sort of shock?" |
| 39769 | She set the tea down on a table and turned to me a scared face, as she answered by another question:"How ever did you find out that?" |
| 39769 | Should I let go? |
| 39769 | Supposing I did fall asleep, what would happen? |
| 39769 | That was so, responded the ladies, and the burly Duchess inquired if Madame ever gave racing tips, or lucky numbers for Monte Carlo? |
| 39769 | The hallucinations of a tired woman? |
| 39769 | The question seems to me to hang more on the query-- do such creatures actually exist, than on the argument did I, or did I not see them? |
| 39769 | Then I rang the bell, and when the butler entered the following dialogue took place:----"Who was the caller who has just been?" |
| 39769 | There are people to- day who ask,"Is this the end of the world?" |

| 39769 | Where? |
| 39769 | Which has the best chance of enduring in the future? |
| 39769 | Which made light of terrible hardships, which followed you faithfully through glen and corrie? |
| 39769 | Which? |
| 39769 | Who and what are they, and for what distant shores are they bound? |
| 39769 | Who can the"joker"be who is demoralizing his household, who has even dared to lock him into his own room? |
| 39769 | Who on earth could she be? |
| 39769 | Who was the player, and what was his instrument? |
| 39769 | Why could we not leave to- day?'' |
| 39769 | Why did she come to that house, with which, it is certain, she had no connection? |
| 39769 | Why did she only appear twice, and both times on the same date? |
| 39769 | Why do ghosts suddenly take possession of a house with which, in their incarnate days, they have had no connection? |
| 39769 | Why not? |
| 39769 | Why should n''t you see a ghost?" |
| 39769 | Will a member of the Psychical Society not try his luck? |
| 39769 | Will these ancient civilizations be remembered when the fame of modern nations has vanished utterly? |
| 39769 | Would I go and make inquiries? |

| 39769 | Would one of the ladies suggest something she would like done? |
| 39769 | Would some one come and try to strangle me in the night? |
| 39769 | been on the Astral Plane lately?" |
| 39769 | do books originate the author? |
| 39769 | do n''t you know what that is?'' |
| 39769 | exclaimed Prince Arthur,"that letter is written by''The Pretender,''is n''t it?" |
| 39769 | heard things?" |
| 39769 | how do you think I am looking?'' |
| 39769 | who''d have thought it? |
| 39485 | ''A black Newfoundland, with a large white streak on his flank?'' 39485 ''About what?'' |
| 39485 | ''And Monsieur Pelletier and the children, are they well?'' 39485 ''And the body of the dog?'' |
| 39485 | ''And the dog has attached himself to the regiment?'' 39485 ''And what did he say? |
| 39485 | ''And what did you do then, Mary?'' 39485 ''And,''said I,''how of the ghost? |
| 39485 | ''Are you afraid,''I said,''to go yourselves in the haunted chambers?'' 39485 ''Are you going up there now?'' |
| 39485 | ''Aye,''said he,''but where''s Robertson? 39485 ''Belonging to this regiment?'' |
| 39485 | ''But Fritz?'' 39485 ''But do you seriously mean to say, that you believe this to be a visionary dog, and not a dog of flesh and blood?'' |
| 39485 | ''But how can you live here then?'' 39485 ''But why did you leave? |
| 39485 | ''But why? 39485 ''Did you, sir?'' |
| 39485 | ''Do you mean to say you''ve really seen Mungo?'' 39485 ''Hamilton,''said he to the butler,''where did Captain S. sleep last night?'' |
| 39485 | ''Have you got my bat, Healy?'' 39485 ''He is dead, I suppose?'' |
| 39485 | ''How absurd,''said Mr. Zwengler;''and are you going to do it?'' 39485 ''How did he wake you?'' |
| 39485 | ''How?'' 39485 ''I suppose, Mary, you''ve never been away from home before?'' |
| 39485 | ''Into Jokel Falck, sir?'' 39485 ''Is Robertson here?'' |
| 39485 | ''Is any of your family ill?'' 39485 ''Is that the way he always wakes the men?'' |
| 39485 | ''Is there much game in the forest?'' 39485 ''Jacopo Ferraldi?'' |
| 39485 | ''Mais, ma bonne Françoise,''I said;''vous avez quelque chose-- est il arrivà © quelque malheur à Metz?'' 39485 ''Master wishes to know if you''ll soon be done, ma''am? |
| 39485 | ''My dear fellow, what are you talking about?'' 39485 ''Not been here?'' |
| 39485 | ''Nothing about farmer Gould?'' 39485 ''Of what period is it,''I asked,''and how happens it to have been made by an Italian?'' |
| 39485 | ''Perhaps the dog has taken a fancy to him?'' 39485 ''That''s a new name they''ve got for Schnapps, is n''t it?'' |
| 39485 | ''Then I suppose during the season the family live here?'' 39485 ''Then it is the upper floors that are haunted?'' |
| 39485 | ''Was it a white cat, ma''am?'' 39485 ''Well Healy,''said I, as he rolled in the barrel of beer; have you heard any news?'' |
| 39485 | ''Well, Healy,''I said,''is n''t this a shocking thing about poor Farmer Gould? 39485 ''Well, and what has happened?'' |
| 39485 | ''Well, sir, I''ve heard so; but how should he know? 39485 ''What does Healy say?'' |
| 39485 | ''What happened to him?'' 39485 ''What nonsense?'' |
| 39485 | ''What sort of unpleasant things?'' 39485 ''What''s the matter?'' |
| 39485 | ''What?'' 39485 ''Where did she go, James?'' |
| 39485 | ''Where''s Captain B?'' 39485 ''Where?'' |
| 39485 | ''Where?'' 39485 ''Who says so?'' |
| 39485 | ''Who was he?'' 39485 ''Whose dog is that?'' |
| 39485 | ''Why do n''t you abolish it?'' 39485 ''Why? |
| 39485 | ''Why?'' 39485 ''Why?'' |
| 39485 | ''Yes,''said he;''will you come?'' 39485 And are you convinced that it was a spectre, and not a dog of flesh and blood?" |
| 39485 | And did it seem generally believed? |
| 39485 | And have you ever seen Mungo again? |
| 39485 | Ar''n''t he come back with the stuff? |
| 39485 | Are you really venturing to accuse the General of cowardice? |
| 39485 | Arn''t he here? |
| 39485 | But what were these two helpless women to do, mutually confirmed in their apprehensions as they naturally were? 39485 Did you hear if he had been there?" |
| 39485 | Do you think the people who told you believed it? |
| 39485 | Have n''t you seen him? |
| 39485 | How should I know? |
| 39485 | I suppose he has been in England? |
| 39485 | If it is not a secret, perhaps you will tell it to me? |
| 39485 | Is Coullie come in? |
| 39485 | No.--Don''t you see he''s not? |
| 39485 | Then, she is dead? |
| 39485 | This question being answered, I said,''Did you meet anybody on the road that night?'' 39485 This was easily done, and we found the date and the name; the count paused, and then added,''I dare say you can guess it?'' |
| 39485 | Well, I think nothing can be so cowardly as to be afraid to own the truth? |
| 39485 | Wha''s that? |
| 39485 | What can that boy be doing, all this time? |
| 39485 | What did the host say to it? |
| 39485 | What is his name? |
| 39485 | Where''s Coullie? |
| 39485 | You did not meet him on the road, nor in the village? |
| 39485 | You have heard, I suppose of spectral illusions? |
| 39485 | You have n''t seen anything of Rob, have you? |
| 39485 | You might have been on that side of the hill? |
| 39485 | ''But do you mean to say,''said I,''that that is the reason the family do n''t live here, and that the castle is abandoned on that account?'' |
| 39485 | ''Did n''t you ask me to come and play a game at billiards; and did n''t I tell you I''d come as soon as I had finished my letter? |
| 39485 | ''Do you think I intend to become an assassin? |
| 39485 | ''Has he heard anything new about this affair?'' |
| 39485 | ''I saw him this evening-- who does he belong to?'' |
| 39485 | ''Let us take it out of the frame?'' |
| 39485 | ''What did you say?'' |
| 39485 | ''What has happened to Fritz?'' |
| 39485 | ''What is Mrs. Greathead''s attachment to the hedge?'' |
| 39485 | ''What reason have you for such an extraordinary belief?'' |
| 39485 | ''Which is the long room?'' |
| 39485 | Anything else wanted, sir?'' |
| 39485 | But everybody said,''Where did he get the money?'' |
| 39485 | But what could be his reason for so strange a proceeding, and why, if he wanted to evade the meeting, had he needlessly shown himself at all? |
| 39485 | Crowe?" |
| 39485 | Did any of your family ever say they saw anything extraordinary there?'' |
| 39485 | Did he meet Rob that day on his way to Gifford? |
| 39485 | Did n''t you like the place?'' |
| 39485 | Do you not think there_ are_ times when the material may give place to the supernatural? |
| 39485 | Even Annie no longer defended him, for where else could he be all night? |
| 39485 | H?'' |
| 39485 | Has Madame Pelletier got rid of her_ grippe_?'' |
| 39485 | He''s gone to Gifford ar''n''t he?" |
| 39485 | How are your friends? |
| 39485 | How beautiful are their characters when studied? |
| 39485 | How should they? |
| 39485 | How''s father?" |
| 39485 | However, I was just going to advance, and ask him what he was doing? |
| 39485 | I answered, rather indignant;''what do you mean by_ suppose_? |
| 39485 | I believe that''s all, Ma''am?'' |
| 39485 | I ca n''t think what he can mean by playing at Hide and Seek in this way?'' |
| 39485 | I do n''t know whether you saw the remains of an old tombstone in a corner of the garden? |
| 39485 | I had ceased to think of the circumstance, and inquired what old gentleman she meant? |
| 39485 | I said; how is that? |
| 39485 | I understand you lived in the house yourself a short time; may I ask if you found any similar difficulty?'' |
| 39485 | Is she to live with us?'' |
| 39485 | It was the first question addressed to him--"Where''s Rob?" |
| 39485 | Mary,''said one of the younger ones,''were n''t you frightened?'' |
| 39485 | Perhaps you''d too much to do?'' |
| 39485 | Shall I put the beer in the cellar?'' |
| 39485 | She called to him,"Is Rob come?" |
| 39485 | What could Rob be doing so much out of the road as the Quarry? |
| 39485 | What is their relation to the human race? |
| 39485 | What''s the use of trying to hoax one?'' |
| 39485 | Where in the world did this dog come from? |
| 39485 | Where was he when you saw him?" |
| 39485 | Which of the two should he follow? |
| 39485 | Who does he belong to?'' |
| 39485 | Who gave you the message?'' |
| 39485 | Who is she, mamma? |
| 39485 | Why are these creatures, sinless, as far as we see, placed here as the subjects of this barbarous, unthinking tyrant? |
| 39485 | Why did n''t he keep his word with us?'' |
| 39485 | Why not really stay away from Portree? |
| 39485 | Why? |
| 39485 | Will you take me up stairs and shew me those rooms?'' |
| 39485 | Wo n''t he sell her?'' |
| 39485 | You''ve heard he was found dead in the road this morning?'' |
| 39485 | do n''t you see it?'' |
| 39485 | exclaimed my friend, in evident surprise;''when did you tell me so? |
| 39485 | he chilled the marrow of my bones, and I could not away with him; so I said one day,"What if I go to England with the money?" |
| 39485 | how willing they are to serve us when kindly treated? |
| 39485 | how wonderful their intelligence when cultivated? |
| 39485 | no, why should I be frightened at a shadow?'' |
| 39485 | not this morning, as you were passing my quarter?'' |
| 39485 | said Mrs. Colman,''do you know what you''re saying?'' |
| 39485 | was he pleased or otherwise, by the_ denouement_?'' |
| 39485 | what''s the matter?" |
| 19376 | Are you going? 19376 But do they give satisfaction?" |
| 19376 | But then,it will be said,"if she lives for the time being in the other world, why does she not relate her impressions when she wakes?" |
| 19376 | Can you bring Stainton Moses here? |
| 19376 | Do n''t you remember D.? |
| 19376 | Do n''t you remember, James, that we often talked of your brother and the trouble he gave us? 19376 Do you recognise this book?" |
| 19376 | Do you recognise this? |
| 19376 | Do you remember old Dyruputia( Dupuytren)? |
| 19376 | George, where did you know my son? |
| 19376 | George, where did you stay with us? |
| 19376 | Hear the whistle? |
| 19376 | I wanted to know if you remembered anything about the dogs killing sheep? |
| 19376 | Is that a blessing? 19376 No, James, I know you very well, but this one"( speaking again to Dr Hodgson),"Did you know the boys? |
| 19376 | Was this after you went west? |
| 19376 | Well, why do you not come out and say, Give me my step- mother''s name, and not confuse him about anything except what you really want? 19376 What, in their corrections?" |
| 19376 | When? |
| 19376 | Where''s Thompson? 19376 Why do you say that?" |
| 19376 | Yes, was there anything else the matter? |
| 19376 | A little later on, the following dialogue takes place between Miss Vance and George Pelham:"Now, whom do you have to correct your writings?" |
| 19376 | After all, are there not famous men of science who declare that genius itself is only a neurosis? |
| 19376 | An interesting question arises at the point we have reached--"What is Phinuit? |
| 19376 | And now, can there be a conclusion to this work? |
| 19376 | And what do they think of our life upon earth? |
| 19376 | And why does it make just the mistakes that an imperfect, finite spirit would make? |
| 19376 | Another time Robert Hyslop asks,"Do you remember the penknife I cut my nails with?" |
| 19376 | Another time she says, quite at the end,"Is that my body? |
| 19376 | Are these only analogies? |
| 19376 | Are these traits thrown in intentionally by the communicator, the better to prove his identity? |
| 19376 | At one of the first sittings he says, for example,"Do you remember what my feeling was about this life? |
| 19376 | At one sitting he asks,"Where is Tom?" |
| 19376 | At the 44th sitting,[28] Professor Lodge asked his Uncle Jerry, who is supposed to be communicating,"Do you remember anything when you were young?" |
| 19376 | At the end, Mrs Piper often asks this odd question,"Did you hear my head snap?" |
| 19376 | At this moment Dr Hodgson said,"Do you remember Mrs Warner?" |
| 19376 | But if this is so, why does not Phinuit own it? |
| 19376 | But presently George Pelham recognises him, and says,"How is your son? |
| 19376 | But then why should the communicators grow clear with time? |
| 19376 | But then, from whence did she take the other characters? |
| 19376 | But, when the communication is not direct, when an intermediary is speaking through the organism, what should we think? |
| 19376 | C. F. W.--"Have you any relatives living in Marseilles?" |
| 19376 | C. F. W.--"Was Dupuytren alive when you passed out?" |
| 19376 | C. F. W.--"What influence has my mind on what you tell me?" |
| 19376 | CONTENTS PAGE Preface by Sir Oliver Lodge xi Objects of the Society xix Chapter I 1 Mrs Piper''s mediumship-- Is mediumship a neurosis? |
| 19376 | Ca n''t you see me? |
| 19376 | Can it be said that there were no inexact statements made by the communicator during all these sittings? |
| 19376 | Can we say that the communicator George Pelham has never made a partially or wholly erroneous assertion? |
| 19376 | Did you know me?" |
| 19376 | Did you see the light? |
| 19376 | Did you think I was no longer friend of his? |
| 19376 | Do n''t you hear me? |
| 19376 | Do n''t you know his name is Henry? |
| 19376 | Do n''t you remember what a trouble I had to breathe? |
| 19376 | Do you know Dr Clinton Perry? |
| 19376 | Do you see the man with the cross shut out everybody?" |
| 19376 | Do you see the man with the cross[87] shut out everybody? |
| 19376 | Do you suppose that the swarms on the ground of the cave will run? |
| 19376 | Do you?" |
| 19376 | Does Phinuit better justify the title of doctor which he assumes? |
| 19376 | Does not their silence on this point indicate that they are only secondary personalities of the medium? |
| 19376 | Dr F. asked,[37]"Have you ever prescribed_ chiendent_ or_ Triticum repens_?" |
| 19376 | Dr H.--"He wants to see me?" |
| 19376 | Dr Hodgson asks,"What man?" |
| 19376 | Dr Hodgson.--"Well, do you see that there is a conflict, because the brain substance is, so to speak, saturated with her tendencies of thought?" |
| 19376 | Dr Hodgson.--"What about it?" |
| 19376 | Each spirit is not so dim(?) |
| 19376 | Finally, in order to attain to any result in these studies, money is needed-- why not say so? |
| 19376 | For pity''s sake, are you her little daughter?" |
| 19376 | G. P.--"Well, have you forgotten all I told you before?" |
| 19376 | George Pelham is asked,"Could you not tell us something which your mother has done?" |
| 19376 | H. W.--"How is Alice?" |
| 19376 | H. W.--"How''s the Society, Lucy Stone and all of them?" |
| 19376 | H. W.--"Where is my big silk handkerchief?" |
| 19376 | H. W.--"Where is my thimble?" |
| 19376 | H. W.--"Where''s William and doctor?" |
| 19376 | H. W.--"Who''s Sarah?" |
| 19376 | Have they any reason to be ashamed? |
| 19376 | He asked,"Do you know what the trouble was when you passed out?" |
| 19376 | He asks Dr Hodgson,"Do you know where the Hospital of God is( Hospital de Dieu)?" |
| 19376 | He asks him,"Why do n''t you write on this subject?" |
| 19376 | He asks,"What is Rogers writing now?" |
| 19376 | He has very curious ideas about things and people; he receives a great deal about people from themselves(? |
| 19376 | He said to her at a sitting,"Katharine, how is the violin? |
| 19376 | He sends them expressions of affection,"Have I forgotten anybody, James, my son? |
| 19376 | He welcomes Mr and Mrs Howard in a characteristic way:"Jim, is that you? |
| 19376 | He will say,"Do you remember our being together in such a place?" |
| 19376 | Here''s a little child called Stevenson-- two of them-- one named Mannie( Minnie?) |
| 19376 | How can an infinite power seem at times so limited, so finite, when the conditions remain unchanged? |
| 19376 | How could Phinuit guess this by simply touching a lock of hair? |
| 19376 | How is it that telepathy, which can do so much, owns itself incapable, or nearly so, of determining the moment when an action has been performed? |
| 19376 | How should such puny creatures as ourselves hope to solve the problems of the universe by_ a priori_ reasoning? |
| 19376 | How then should the shape we men have in this world persist in the next? |
| 19376 | How''s Mary? |
| 19376 | How''s father and all the folks? |
| 19376 | Howard.--"Our conversation, then, is something like telephoning?" |
| 19376 | I do not remember any trouble-- tell me what it was about? |
| 19376 | I feel so weak.... Is that my handkerchief?" |
| 19376 | I made theories all my life, and what good did it do me? |
| 19376 | If they are, as they say, disincarnated spirits, who formerly lived in bodies, why do they not say who they were? |
| 19376 | Is it a woman or a man?" |
| 19376 | Is it justified by the facts of experimental or spontaneous observation among psychologists? |
| 19376 | Is n''t he writing something about me?" |
| 19376 | It will come to that, without doubt, but will it be soon? |
| 19376 | John Hart, at the first sitting at which George Pelham appeared, gave some sleeve- links he was wearing, and asked,"Who gave them to me?" |
| 19376 | Mr Carruthers suddenly perceives the presence of Dr Hodgson and says,"You are not Robert Hyslop''s son, are you? |
| 19376 | Mr E.[17]--"Lodge, how are you? |
| 19376 | Mr Howard.--"Vernon?" |
| 19376 | Mr T.--"What does your father do?" |
| 19376 | Mrs B.--"Can you tell me where that letter is now that you wrote?" |
| 19376 | Mrs B.--"Can you tell me, sister, how many brothers you have in spirit life?" |
| 19376 | Mrs B.--"Can''t you tell me more about it?" |
| 19376 | Mrs B.--"How long has he been?" |
| 19376 | Mrs B.--"Sarah Grover?" |
| 19376 | Mrs B.--"What Alice?" |
| 19376 | Mrs B.--"What lot?" |
| 19376 | Mrs Blodgett says,"Hannah, tell me whose and what is that?" |
| 19376 | Mrs H.--"Well, what does he want to say to me? |
| 19376 | Mrs H.--"Yes; which Aunt Ellen?" |
| 19376 | Mrs Piper and the Society for Psychical Research CHAPTER I Mrs Piper''s mediumship-- Is mediumship a neurosis? |
| 19376 | Must we believe in it? |
| 19376 | Must we suppose that Dame Telepathy is a mere incarnation of the demon of fraud and deceit? |
| 19376 | Nevertheless, George Pelham asks her at once,"How is the society getting on?" |
| 19376 | O. L.--"Is it bad for the medium?" |
| 19376 | O. L.--"What sort of person is this Dr Phinuit?" |
| 19376 | O. L.--"You have seen my Uncle Jerry, have n''t you? |
| 19376 | Of what use, then, are the small objects given to the medium? |
| 19376 | Phinuit jokingly felt the mouth with his hands and asked,"What is this thing with a tube?" |
| 19376 | Phinuit likes to say,"Bonjour, comment vous portez vous? |
| 19376 | Phinuit seemed much surprised, and said,"What is the English of that?" |
| 19376 | Phinuit.--"Do you know Mr Clark-- a tall, dark man, in the body? |
| 19376 | Phinuit.--"How are you, Alfred? |
| 19376 | Phinuit.--"It is a gentleman; and do you remember your Aunt Ellen?" |
| 19376 | Phinuit.--"Oh, you did? |
| 19376 | Professor Hyslop asks,"Do you know why she grieves?" |
| 19376 | Professor Lodge.--"Can she send her name any better?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"Can you tell me what he said?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"Did you tell Hodgson this?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"Is he asleep?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"Is he far advanced?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"Stainton Moses has been nearly three years in the spirit.... Do you mean to say that he is not yet free from confusion?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"Was he a true medium?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"Was not he good?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"What do you mean?" |
| 19376 | Professor N.--"You mean about progression by repentance?" |
| 19376 | Professor Newbold.--"Did you ever know of him or know what he did?" |
| 19376 | Professor Newbold.--"You taught that evil spirits tempt sinners to their own destruction?" |
| 19376 | Professor Newbold[75] then asked,--"Do you know of Stainton Moses?" |
| 19376 | Shall we say that while he was holding hands he had laid in a provision of knowledge for the whole half- hour? |
| 19376 | Should we each admit conditionally the spiritualist hypothesis? |
| 19376 | Should we follow them? |
| 19376 | Something cold, is n''t it?" |
| 19376 | Ted''s mother and.... And how''s Susie? |
| 19376 | The final phrases are always Mrs Piper''s own questions and remarks: When she says,"Did you see the light?" |
| 19376 | The one that lost the purse?" |
| 19376 | The question was,"Do you remember Samuel Cooper, and can you say anything about him?" |
| 19376 | Then how shall we understand the errors and confusions of the communicators? |
| 19376 | Then why does it make mistakes? |
| 19376 | Then, what interest could they have in deceiving us? |
| 19376 | These speeches bring into the foreground the question:"What becomes of the medium''s spirit during the trance, if there is a spirit?" |
| 19376 | To begin with, what is the origin of this telepathic hypothesis? |
| 19376 | What can this"influence"be? |
| 19376 | What does he mean by this? |
| 19376 | What is it? |
| 19376 | What made the man''s hair all fall off?" |
| 19376 | What man living has not made a hundred such mistakes? |
| 19376 | What should such mediums fear? |
| 19376 | What''s his name?" |
| 19376 | What, on the telepathic hypothesis, has had the power to create them? |
| 19376 | Whence did the medium take them? |
| 19376 | Whence does he come? |
| 19376 | Whence his name? |
| 19376 | Where are my glasses"( the medium passes her hands over her eyes)? |
| 19376 | Where is the little outhouse?" |
| 19376 | Where''s brother?" |
| 19376 | Where''s doctor? |
| 19376 | Where''s my comb? |
| 19376 | Who was it went to Finland, or Norway?" |
| 19376 | Whom shall we believe? |
| 19376 | Why does he do that?" |
| 19376 | Why is that?" |
| 19376 | Why should they become lucid at the time when they ought to be still more confused, if the telepathic hypothesis is the correct one? |
| 19376 | Why were the results so poor? |
| 19376 | Why? |
| 19376 | Why?" |
| 19376 | Will it be said that these small dramas resemble the creations of the same kind which occur in delirium or dreams? |
| 19376 | Will you comfort her? |
| 19376 | Would it not have been wiser of Phinuit to hold his tongue than to tell us a mass of improbabilities? |
| 19376 | You are not a great one for mathematics, are you?" |
| 19376 | You certainly must remember it?" |
| 19376 | You do not mean with me, do you?" |
| 19376 | You have just learned, have n''t you? |
| 19376 | You know me, do n''t you?" |
| 19376 | You remember about my dress? |
| 19376 | You remember all about my money? |
| 19376 | You remember his big chair where he used to sit and think?" |
| 19376 | You''ll know best and correct(?). |

| 19376 | [ 67] Professor Newbold.--"Does the soul carry with it into its new life all its passions and animal appetites?" |
| 19376 | and as James Hyslop did not understand what Tom he was speaking of, the communicator added,"Tom, the horse, what has become of him?" |

| 28513 | Who of us can say, what may be shewn in the_ Glasses_ of the Great_ Lying Spirit_? |
| 28513 | Why was that? |
| 28513 | Why, did the Devil say to our Lord,_ Cast thy self down_, but in hopes that our Lord would have broke his Bones, in the fall? |

| 23660 | ''Why should I be frightened?'' |
| 23660 | Again I repeat, the question is not: Is it possible? |
| 23660 | Again, might not telepathy be facilitated if we chose individuals of the same general temperament? |
| 23660 | And how can a thought be photographed? |
| 23660 | And if a motor current can exist and travel in this manner, why not a sensory current? |
| 23660 | And if so, what are they? |
| 23660 | And if they do, what is the cause of them? |
| 23660 | And once grasped, is it not self- evident, and does not all else follow in consequence? |
| 23660 | And what is its object? |
| 23660 | And why should not many more messages be received from the hundreds and thousands who die yearly, and who are doubtless longing to communicate? |
| 23660 | Are there any facts, amid all this superstition and ignorance, tending to show that genuine supernormal phenomena ever occurred at all? |
| 23660 | Are there any facts, then, that would seem to indicate that the soul might be photographed? |
| 23660 | Are these entirely electrical and chemical forces, the neural impulses being mere electrical currents? |
| 23660 | Are these raps due to exteriorized vital force? |
| 23660 | Are they astrals or elementals? |
| 23660 | Are they crystallizations of thought? |
| 23660 | Are they projections from the body of the medium? |
| 23660 | Are they the hands of a spirit, or mere exteriorizations from the body of the medium-- materializations, only partially independent? |
| 23660 | Are they the hands of"spirits,"inhabitants of the"Great Beyond"? |
| 23660 | But as to the further question:"What is the nature of the intelligence lying behind and controlling these phenomena?" |
| 23660 | But if so, how could such waves get through the skull to act upon the brain direct? |
| 23660 | But in that case, why is not the person with the more sensitive retina affected by it? |
| 23660 | But is it there? |
| 23660 | But still the question obtrudes: How came these figures there? |
| 23660 | But what of the energy? |
| 23660 | But what of those other( relatively rare) cases in which supernormal information, unknown to the sitter, is obtained? |
| 23660 | But, I shall be asked, is there any evidence for such a theory? |
| 23660 | Can it be altered at will? |
| 23660 | Can it be photographed? |
| 23660 | Can so many cases of so remarkable a character be attributed to chance? |
| 23660 | Can that too be dissected? |
| 23660 | Can these raps be controlled at will, or directed and controlled when the subject is under hypnosis? |
| 23660 | Can this energy be directed at will? |
| 23660 | Could it be collected and analysed, as was suggested in the case of the cold breeze issuing from the scar on Eusapia Palladino''s forehead? |
| 23660 | Could it not impress delicate physical instruments? |
| 23660 | Could such a race have existed? |
| 23660 | Could"life"act otherwise? |
| 23660 | Do such facts exist which tell in favour of M. Bergson''s theory as against the other? |
| 23660 | Does it affect the atmosphere? |
| 23660 | Does one consciousness stretch out, as it were, and grasp the other passive mind? |
| 23660 | Does the psychic constitution of the communicator affect the results-- and if so, how? |
| 23660 | For if we try to picture to ourselves the process of telepathy as taking place in some manner other than physical, how are we to conceive such action? |
| 23660 | Further, it may be urged, what evidence have we that consciousness can exist apart from brain- functioning? |
| 23660 | H. C. CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE Preface v I Is Psychical Research a Science? |
| 23660 | Have I, then, any theory to offer as to the nature of this power of life which is essentially new to physiology and biology? |
| 23660 | Have giants of this character existed? |
| 23660 | Have lens and light really nothing to do with their formation? |
| 23660 | Have or have not the various personalities who have communicated through her entranced organism proved their personal identity? |
| 23660 | Have we any evidence that the soul may be photographed-- say, at the moment of death? |
| 23660 | How account for the facts? |
| 23660 | How are we to account for such facts-- short of invoking some sort of mental interaction, through other than the ordinary channels of sense? |
| 23660 | How are you, old chap?'' |
| 23660 | How can such an organism be built up? |
| 23660 | How can we perform intelligent operations without intelligence? |
| 23660 | How can_ will_ plastically mould matter in space? |
| 23660 | How do the"spirits"manipulate the nervous organism, and particularly the brain, of the medium? |
| 23660 | How does it manage to reflect light that affects the retina of one person and not the retina of another? |
| 23660 | How does our author attempt to account for such a fact as this? |
| 23660 | How does the medium''s mind affect the content of the communications-- and to what extent? |
| 23660 | How does the sensitive perceive these impressions? |
| 23660 | How has this progress been possible? |
| 23660 | How is such action to be explained? |
| 23660 | How much more difficult would it be if we were suddenly transplanted in_ another_ person''s body, and had to manipulate_ that_? |
| 23660 | How was this? |
| 23660 | How well could I hold a plough in stony ground and discuss protection and free- trade?" |
| 23660 | How, then, are we to diagnose this condition when once it has been reached; and, when once diagnosed, how is it to be treated? |
| 23660 | If both agent and percipient were placed in a strong magnetic or high- tension electric field, might not this in some way influence communication? |
| 23660 | If both subjects were hypnotized, and the agent were told to"will"certain figures, etc., might not the percipient receive them more easily? |
| 23660 | If objects can retain certain"influences"within them, what is their nature, and how are they retained? |
| 23660 | If so, does this energy exude from the nerve termini, or is it connected only with the etheric body or double? |
| 23660 | If so, how did it manage to move the board? |
| 23660 | If so, where are these experiments recorded? |
| 23660 | If this be so, I ask: Why should we allow the body to become diseased at all and thus necessitate its cure by mental or any other means? |
| 23660 | If_ You_--then where am I, and who?" |
| 23660 | In this way alone could we account for the facts; but even so, are they explained? |
| 23660 | Inasmuch as man is connected with these lower organisms by an unbroken line of descent, why should not these factors explain man''s actions also? |
| 23660 | Indeed, he sometimes used to annoy me by his indifference to what was going on...."[32] Does this look like suggestion? |
| 23660 | Indeed, if true, what could be more terrible? |
| 23660 | Is Psychical Research a Science? |
| 23660 | Is it a physical breeze, or is it purely"psychical"? |
| 23660 | Is it affected by passing a high- tension current through the body of the subject? |
| 23660 | Is it connected with the phenomena of exteriorization of sensitivity or motivity? |
| 23660 | Is it connected with the"astral"or"etheric body"? |
| 23660 | Is the aura a form of physical radiation? |
| 23660 | Is the medium''s spirit entirely removed from the body during the process of communication? |
| 23660 | Is there any similarity between the two cases? |
| 23660 | Is there not a connection between these phenomena and haunted houses? |
| 23660 | It is useless to say beforehand whether or not such and such things are or are not possible; the question is: Do they exist? |
| 23660 | May there not be psychical causation? |
| 23660 | Now what about the_ connecting links_? |
| 23660 | Of course the spiritual body would have to be material enough to reflect light waves, but where is the evidence that it is not? |
| 23660 | Of what are they constituted? |
| 23660 | Of what can they consist? |
| 23660 | On what framework, so to speak, is the body constructed? |
| 23660 | Once more: is"psychometry"a fact? |
| 23660 | Or are there other forms of energy which experimental physiology has not as yet brought to light? |
| 23660 | Out of what materials is it constructed? |
| 23660 | Pictorially they are vile, but how came they there? |
| 23660 | Presuming, then, that the movement or impelling force is the same in each instance, the question is: What is this force? |
| 23660 | Shakespeare''s adage:"Who can minister to a mind diseased?" |
| 23660 | Should we not apply the same laws to the phenomena of the nervous system, and institute a similar mode of experiment for the nervous energies? |
| 23660 | Such a view of the case certainly gives a far greater dignity and power to the will; but is it true? |
| 23660 | The facts, then; are they true or are they not? |
| 23660 | The old objection:"Why must these things always be done in the dark?" |
| 23660 | The question is: First, Do the facts occur? |
| 23660 | The question now arises: Can these fluidic hands, which are thus exteriorized, move of their own volition, or must they remain stationary? |
| 23660 | The question now arises: is the fluidic hand two- dimensioned? |
| 23660 | The question then arises: Do the figures prove the causation of vital energy by food? |
| 23660 | The question therefore remains: What happens in this trance state to render such results possible? |
| 23660 | The question thus arises:_ What_ did the writing? |
| 23660 | This theory( might we not say, this fact?) |
| 23660 | To whom do they belong? |
| 23660 | Travel- wearied, hubbub- dizzy, Would the simple Arab fain Get to sleep,--"But then on waking, How,"quoth he,"amid so many Waking, know myself again?" |
| 23660 | Under what conditions can we conceive this transference? |
| 23660 | Under what mental, physical, and, possibly, spiritual conditions does telepathy operate? |
| 23660 | Upon what cells or centres do they operate? |
| 23660 | Was I in my right mind? |
| 23660 | Was he connected with machinery in life? |
| 23660 | Was it a fainting fit coming on, epilepsy, paralysis-- possibly even death? |
| 23660 | Was it a spirit? |
| 23660 | Was it night, or had I been in some strange sleep? |
| 23660 | Was there something amiss in my own hearing, then, that I could distinguish no word amidst these deeply emphasized tones? |
| 23660 | Was this hallucination, or some vision of the unseen, coming in so unexpected fashion? |
| 23660 | Were a series of experiments conducted to show which of the onlookers possessed the most sensitive eyes? |
| 23660 | What are the forms of nervous energy which are employed? |
| 23660 | What are they? |
| 23660 | What becomes of the aura after death; and what changes, if any, does it undergo at the moment of death? |
| 23660 | What degree of density can be attained? |
| 23660 | What is happening in the brain-- especially in the psycho- motor centres-- when we move an arm by means of an act of will? |
| 23660 | What is its condition when the subject is asleep? |
| 23660 | What is its source? |
| 23660 | What is the best mental condition of the agent? |
| 23660 | What is the bond between the hand of the medium which makes a gesture in the direction of the table, and the table itself? |
| 23660 | What is the condition of the communicator''s mind while communicating? |
| 23660 | What is the connection between so- called"thought- forms"and materialized phantoms? |
| 23660 | What is the good of ignoring that state, when it exists? |
| 23660 | What is the nature of the intelligence animating the materialized figure? |
| 23660 | What is the nature of the physical impact upon the table? |
| 23660 | What is the nature of the trance, and what peculiarity within it renders these results possible? |
| 23660 | What is the nature of the vital drain upon the medium and the sitters? |
| 23660 | What is the nature of these fluidic hands? |
| 23660 | What is the power which manipulates this matter? |
| 23660 | What is the source of the information so often given? |
| 23660 | What of dreams? |
| 23660 | What part of us can perform conscious operations without our being conscious of them? |
| 23660 | What produces them? |
| 23660 | What was it? |
| 23660 | What would be the effect of hypnotic trance? |
| 23660 | What, then, is understood by the subconscious mind? |
| 23660 | When the trance has been induced, however, how does the"spirit"succeed in imparting information to the medium''s brain and organism? |
| 23660 | Where is the analogy in the two cases? |
| 23660 | Where is the evidence that those with the most sensitive retinae were not the very ones who perceived, most perfectly, the spirit- hand? |
| 23660 | Who and what is this Stranger? |
| 23660 | Who directs and guides them? |
| 23660 | Who does the writing? |
| 23660 | Why are these communications so rare? |
| 23660 | Why should the trance state have this effect? |
| 23660 | Why such trouble with proper names? |
| 23660 | Why this symbolism? |
| 23660 | Why, then, is there so much mystery about it;_ why_ is it so extraordinary? |
| 23660 | Will it affect the galvanometer needle, or other delicate electrical or physical instruments? |
| 23660 | Would it not be more simple and more philosophical so to regulate the life that such diseased states and such cures are unnecessary? |
| 23660 | [ 14] Is the interpretation correct? |
| 23660 | [ 17] The question has been asked, What becomes of the potential energy contained in the food, if it is not converted into bodily energy? |
| 23660 | [ 2] Might not this account for the fact that trance or"spirit control"practically never occurs during the hours of sleep? |
| 23660 | [ 39] Why were Sir William Crookes''experiments with the spring balance not discussed, by the way, in this connection? |
| 23660 | _ How_ do they communicate? |
| 23660 | _ Why_ should the peculiar condition involved be instrumental in producing such striking results? |
| 23660 | and how? |
| 23660 | and if so, where is it, and what is it doing? |
| 23660 | and what is the structure of the matter itself? |
| 23660 | but, Is it a fact? |
| 23660 | of the percipient? |
| 23660 | or between the"charging- up"of a table or planchette board before it proceeds to answer questions and behave in the manner it is often reported to do? |
| 42318 | And what,we inquired,"is this something that you have attained?" |
| 42318 | Do you know who will be the next U. S. Senator from this State? |
| 42318 | In the hall of thieves,said the lady;"what on earth can be the meaning of that? |
| 42318 | Of what must I take care? |
| 42318 | What were they eating and drinking? |
| 42318 | When did I hurt thee? |
| 42318 | Where did she_ formerly_ live? |
| 42318 | Where? |
| 42318 | Will you try that over again? |
| 42318 | ''But how does friction produce heat in this case?'' |
| 42318 | ''But it flows from the Gulf of Mexico?'' |
| 42318 | ''But the Gulf Stream flows north; how, then, can the icebergs accumulate at its source?'' |
| 42318 | ''Is she happy?'' |
| 42318 | ''Is she in fault, or others?'' |
| 42318 | ''That,''said I,''is false;''but not having heard from the family for several years, I asked again,''How many_ did_ she have?'' |
| 42318 | ''Then why do n''t you go on?'' |
| 42318 | ''What are you going to do with me?'' |
| 42318 | ''What for?'' |
| 42318 | ''What is the name of the living one?'' |
| 42318 | ''What is your occupation?'' |
| 42318 | ''What makes her unhappy?'' |
| 42318 | ''When?'' |
| 42318 | ''Why?'' |
| 42318 | ''Will he ever pay me anything?'' |
| 42318 | ''_ Three._''''Where are the other two?'' |
| 42318 | And again, what of that spicy colloquy in which Planchette writes the words"devil,""devil''s brother,""stir fires,""broil you,"etc.? |
| 42318 | And how? |
| 42318 | Are not many of the usages and familiar forms of speech of modern Christendom a return to old heathenism? |
| 42318 | Are these the fruits of the misunderstood doctrine of total depravity?] |
| 42318 | Are they not what St. Augustine calls a repudiation of the Christian faith? |
| 42318 | At last I asked,''How many brothers has she?'' |
| 42318 | At this point she inquired:"Who is this that is giving this caution?" |
| 42318 | But Satan can work only through human agents; and who were his instruments for the affliction of these children? |
| 42318 | But is it a fact, then, that the great enemy whom Christ so constantly spoke of is dead? |
| 42318 | But what is this doctrine? |
| 42318 | But why should the devil connect himself with Planchette?... |
| 42318 | Can you cite me some familiar fact to prove that man is actually surrounded and pervaded by a sphere such as you describe? |
| 42318 | Curious, is it not? |
| 42318 | DR. DODDRIDGE''S DREAM[ In concluding these Psychological discussions, what is there more appropriate than the following? |
| 42318 | Do they believe they are united by intimate bonds with all Christ''s followers? |
| 42318 | For example, she on one occasion said to it:"Planchette, where did you get your education?" |
| 42318 | For illustration, suppose a man asserts at noonday that there is no sun, does he teach you there is no sun? |
| 42318 | Green?'' |
| 42318 | Has it not looked with a jealous eye upon the progress of science generally? |
| 42318 | He has been appointed to serve the world, and the world does not regard him; the negroes, and( who could believe it?) |
| 42318 | He says:"How, then, shall we account for the writing which is performed without any direct volition? |
| 42318 | How does that consideration stand? |
| 42318 | How does that sound to you, my ingenious friend? |
| 42318 | How so? |
| 42318 | I then said:''Who are you?'' |
| 42318 | If I am not an intelligence, in the name of common sense what am I? |
| 42318 | If a table may be made to spin around the room, why may not a wheel be made to turn as well?" |
| 42318 | If it be called only a dream, or, even a delusion, what harm can come of it? |
| 42318 | If thou believest the things which thou sayest to be true, why dost thou weep and lament and make a pageantry and a mock of thy singing? |
| 42318 | If thou believest them_ not_ to be true, why dost thou play the hypocrite so much as to sing?" |
| 42318 | In Planchette, public journalists and pamphleteers seem to have caught the"What is it?" |
| 42318 | In justice to my little friend, however, I must not omit to state that in respect to questions as to the kind of weather we shall have on the morrow? |
| 42318 | Is it anything more than the sheerest assumption? |
| 42318 | Is it not in keeping with Scripture teachings, as now interpreted? |
| 42318 | May I not, then, expect from_ you_ a solution of the mysteries which have thus far enveloped you? |
| 42318 | May it not be spiritual food, of which their mother, the Church, has abundance, which she has neglected to set before them? |
| 42318 | My friend C. here asked:"Ought she to go to Kentucky and attend to the matter?" |
| 42318 | My question was,_ Can you tell me anything about my nephew?_''_ Mr. |
| 42318 | Nevertheless, I am curious to know how you justify yourself in this disparaging remark on the theology and religion of the day? |
| 42318 | Pray, how do you account for that fact? |
| 42318 | She said to him:"For a further test, will you be kind enough to tell me where I last saw you?" |
| 42318 | St. Chrysostom, speaking of funeral services, quotes passages from the psalms and hymns that were in common use, thus:"What mean our psalms and hymns? |
| 42318 | Such were the answers to the questions:"How many brothers_ did_ she[ Mary C----] have?" |
| 42318 | Such, for instance, is the answer"Nobody knows,"to the question"Where is Mary C----?" |
| 42318 | Thinkest thou that I can not now pray to my Father, and he will give me more than twelve legions of angels?" |
| 42318 | Well, by what description of intelligence? |
| 42318 | Well, then, what is the way to deal with spiritualism? |
| 42318 | What is this communion which death can not prevent, and which with prayer can impart consolation? |
| 42318 | When this theory is offered in seriousness as a final solution of the mystery in question, we are tempted to ask, Who is electricity? |
| 42318 | Where is the shadow of proof? |
| 42318 | Why should we not hasten and run after them that we too may see our fatherland? |
| 42318 | Why? |
| 42318 | Will you have the kindness to gratify me in this particular? |
| 42318 | Would not a sermon conceived in the terms of this standard treatise excite an instant sensation as tending toward the errors of Spiritualism? |
| 42318 | [ 2] Query: Have we here the_ spiritus mundi_ of the old philosophers? |
| 42318 | _ I._ And what of the changed aspects of science that is to grow out of this alleged peculiar Divine manifestation? |
| 42318 | _ I._ I see the point, and acknowledge it is ingeniously made; but do you not see that the argument fails to meet the whole difficulty? |
| 42318 | _ I._ Of course they do; how otherwise? |
| 42318 | _ I._ On what ground do you assert that the religion of the day stands in a position"negative"to other influences? |
| 42318 | _ I._ Pray tell us what you mean by the dream- region that lies between the two worlds? |
| 42318 | _ I._ Well, I should say he would teach the latter; but what use would the knowledge that he is such a fool be to us? |
| 42318 | _ P._ Can you, then, bear an announcement still more startling than any I have yet made? |
| 42318 | _ P._ Did not the heathens consult familiar spirits as petty divinities, or gods, and as such, follow their sayings and commands implicitly? |
| 42318 | _ P._ May you not, then, from all this learn a rule which will always be a safe guide to you in respect to the matters under discussion? |
| 42318 | and how and where did he get his education? |
| 42318 | and is this the road our ancestors had to travel in their pilgrimage in quest of freedom and Christianity? |
| 42318 | and was not that the reason, and the only reason, why the practice was forbidden? |
| 42318 | and would not the Israelites to whom the Old Testament was addressed have violated the first command in the decalogue by adopting this practice? |
| 42318 | is my money in jeopardy?" |
| 42318 | or does he teach you that he is blind? |
| 42318 | or shall I see, or do this, that, or the other thing? |
| 42318 | so great an event heralded by so questionable an instrumentality as the rapping and table tipping spirits? |
| 42318 | that is to say, between mere verbal utterances and phenomenal demonstrations? |
| 42318 | what is his mental and moral_ status_? |
| 42318 | will such person go, or such a one come? |
| 54370 | Am I not to believe what I see with my own eyes, and hear with my own ears? |
| 54370 | O, Sir,cried one of the islanders,"why can we not return to the old way and not have all these modern ideas? |
| 54370 | Again, should a conqueror be classed among the great? |
| 54370 | And do not all persons develop one or more faculties, and neglect others, without causing any change in the bones of the face? |
| 54370 | And how do they do it? |
| 54370 | And should they? |
| 54370 | And that if she took any other drug, the effects would not be about the same as they are known to be in practically all cases? |
| 54370 | And then what more can the gods require? |
| 54370 | And what are we to do with this common enemy of mankind? |
| 54370 | And, if so, would it take eight or ten years before this could be done? |
| 54370 | Are not animals affected by disease as well as man? |
| 54370 | Are our churches to encourage the vice at their fairs in order to make money to_ redeem_ the world? |
| 54370 | Are we to allow gambling houses to exist in our midst, thus inviting our young men to become victims? |
| 54370 | Are we to allow lotteries and petty gambling devices everywhere as we do now? |
| 54370 | Are we to emulate the faults of the great, or their virtues? |
| 54370 | Because some men will steal, should we license them and furnish them with ways and means to carry out their brutal instincts? |
| 54370 | But hold,--other difficulties present themselves: Who would compel the organized industries( Trusts) to reduce the hours of work? |
| 54370 | But what has Christian Science done? |
| 54370 | But what were the forlorn islanders to do about it? |
| 54370 | But, should we listen for a moment to those who seek to exterminate the Trust? |
| 54370 | But, who may say? |
| 54370 | Can a person be a gentleman part of the time and not all the time, or is he born one way or the other? |
| 54370 | Can a person who was not born a gentleman acquire the title? |
| 54370 | Can so immense a collection of bodies meet and combine with unanimity? |
| 54370 | Can such an association or society be organized? |
| 54370 | Do we not all know now what a gentleman is? |
| 54370 | Do you wish to isolate yourself from your fellow men and separately make and raise everything you eat and wear?" |
| 54370 | Do you wish to return to that? |
| 54370 | Does it not require quite a stretch of a sacrilegious imagination to picture a clothing factory in the spiritual world? |
| 54370 | For example, suppose the coal mines remained idle,--what if the operators refused to obey the national directory? |
| 54370 | For that matter, who can? |
| 54370 | Has not the burden of the world''s work been lightened and lessened by this combination and organization? |
| 54370 | How can the phrenologist reconcile his philosophy to this stubborn fact? |
| 54370 | How can there be when a gentleman is a_ perfect man_? |
| 54370 | How can we conquer the giant without slaying him? |
| 54370 | How do we know that a man is popular with the people? |
| 54370 | How? |
| 54370 | I have frequently been asked by believing friends,"How do you account for this?" |
| 54370 | If God is able to prevent evil, and is not willing, where is His benevolence? |
| 54370 | If God is both able and willing, whence then is evil? |
| 54370 | If God is willing, but not able, where is His power? |
| 54370 | If employment is all we seek, why not tear down the public buildings and then hire men to build them up again? |
| 54370 | If not, how about Confucius who was yellow? |
| 54370 | If so, who would say that their meager minds could cause it? |
| 54370 | If the public is the majority, who is to say that they are wise or unwise, right or wrong, fools or philosophers? |
| 54370 | Is a great hangman as great as a great divine, and is the greatest clown to be numbered among the greatest men of history? |
| 54370 | Is a great shoemaker a great man? |
| 54370 | Is it a matter of birth, a matter of character, a matter of conscience, a matter of dress, a matter of conduct, or a matter of education? |
| 54370 | Is, then, the spirit world( heaven), no improvement on our own world? |
| 54370 | It asks itself"What is right?" |
| 54370 | It sometimes attaches to ignorance, for who is today more popular than our champion batter or prize fighter? |
| 54370 | It sometimes attaches to immorality, for did it not adopt the infamous Pompadour and du Barry? |
| 54370 | It sometimes attaches to trifles, for was there ever such a fuss made over anything as the Teddybear? |
| 54370 | It sometimes attaches to tyrants, for were not Caligula and Nero more popular than Germanicus? |
| 54370 | Must the constitution be amended in order that NATIONAL DIRECTION shall be put into effect? |
| 54370 | Now, my friends, why do you keep these God- given advantages to yourselves? |
| 54370 | On the other hand, versatility of genius is not uncommon, for was not Leonardo da Vinci master of all the arts? |
| 54370 | Or a Lincoln, Grant or Lee? |
| 54370 | Or, should we try to cure it of its faults by training it to do our bidding? |
| 54370 | Shall Booker T. Washington''s name not go on the immortal list just because he is black? |
| 54370 | Shall Jesus''name be written on the scroll and not Buddha''s or Mohammed''s? |
| 54370 | Shall Theodore Roosevelt go on the list? |
| 54370 | Shall we class Joan of Arc among the great? |
| 54370 | Shall we give Socrates a niche? |
| 54370 | Shall we nominate Diogenes? |
| 54370 | Shall we put Martin Luther on, and not Voltaire? |
| 54370 | Shall we stop all this and let man''s passions have full sway? |
| 54370 | Somebody has said that the majority is usually wrong, but who is to decide whether the majority or that"somebody"is wrong? |
| 54370 | Still here mean that Osteopaths have a certain magic touch which is so powerful and wonderful that it must be used with great caution? |
| 54370 | Still says that Osteopaths adjust displaced muscles, does he not? |
| 54370 | That this touch lets loose certain drugs or chemicals which the body needs to cure itself? |
| 54370 | The question is asked: Will all of the milk dealers one day combine and form a Trust? |
| 54370 | The question may be asked, What power can compel the Trusts to do that which they have been directed to do by the nation? |
| 54370 | There is an old saw that runs--"What is a gentleman? |
| 54370 | These are questions on every tongue, yet who may say the answer? |
| 54370 | Was Caesar great? |
| 54370 | Was there ever a more popular man than Dewey after the Manila victory? |
| 54370 | What are the qualifications and requirements? |
| 54370 | What can be done with this unmanageable monster to destroy its faults and yet not spoil its virtues? |
| 54370 | What does all this show? |
| 54370 | What is a gentleman? |
| 54370 | What is a wedding, and a marriage, and why? |
| 54370 | What is genius? |
| 54370 | What is greatness? |
| 54370 | What kind of a beard shall we wear? |
| 54370 | What matter if all of that is true or false? |
| 54370 | What object was sought, in the beginning, when custom demanded a marriage ceremony before cohabitation? |
| 54370 | What people? |
| 54370 | What then have bumps to do with his mind? |

| 54370 | Who or what would prevent the captains of industry filling their own pockets and keeping the great profits to themselves? |
| 54370 | Who or what would prevent the rich from growing richer, and the poor poorer? |
| 54370 | Who were the greatest men of history? |
| 54370 | Who would favor a"beardless youth"to Numa Pimpolius-- he of the magnificent flowing beard? |
| 54370 | Who would know good horses if there were no heavy loads?" |
| 54370 | Who would prefer a Shakespeare, a Longfellow, a Whitman, a Ruskin, a Charlemagne, shorn of their hirsute adornments? |
| 54370 | Who would say that the Boston tea party_ caused_ the Revolutionary war, or that the firing on Fort Sumpter_ caused_ the"late unpleasantness"? |
| 54370 | Why can we not go back to the old way?" |
| 54370 | Why do n''t you exchange what you make or raise for the products of your neighbors? |
| 54370 | Why do we cling to error so tenaciously? |
| 54370 | Why does every new, occult fad soon attract a host of followers? |
| 54370 | Why has that ancient custom followed man to every far corner of the globe, and why do all peoples resent any effort to destroy that custom? |
| 54370 | Why is it that so many are willing to attribute occult powers to all magicians who perform inexplicable tricks? |
| 54370 | Why so many different forms of ceremony, what do they mean, and why do they differ so? |
| 54370 | Yes, who would not expect it? |
| 54370 | Yet who would say, under those circumstances, that Mind has endowed those drugs with the powers to act on the system as they do? |
| 54370 | You say that Julian argued arduously against the beard? |
| 54370 | You say the ancient Egyptians wore no beards? |

| 54370 | or, that of walking under a ladder, for how many times in a lifetime does a person have occasion to avoid doing so? |
| 38621 | In what sense,asks President Day,"is it true, that a man has power to will the contrary of what he actually wills? |
| 38621 | What is it? |
| 38621 | A question may very properly be asked here, what are these opinions, judgments, admissions, pre- judgments,& c.? |
| 38621 | A question of great importance here presents itself: By what test shall we determine whether the Will is, or is not, in full harmony with the law? |
| 38621 | Are not the commands requiring them fully met in such acts? |
| 38621 | Are they not, on the other hand, presented as voluntary states of mind, or as acts of Will? |
| 38621 | Are they real affirmations of the Intelligence, or are they exclusively phenomena of the Will? |
| 38621 | Are they real affirmations of the Intelligence? |
| 38621 | As distinguished from the action of the Sensibility, what can it be, but a voluntary state, as presented in the Old Testament? |
| 38621 | Ask him why he makes this declaration? |
| 38621 | At another, it is said to be nothing but Certainty, or moral Certainty,& c. Now the question arises, what is this Certainty? |
| 38621 | But on what ground is this conclusion warranted? |
| 38621 | But who does not see, that it is a most vicious reasoning in a circle? |
| 38621 | But yet can we not from analogy form such an idea? |
| 38621 | But, gentlemen, why must there be this contradiction? |
| 38621 | Can He not exercise the very sovereignty which infinite wisdom and love desire? |
| 38621 | Can a being who is not a_ moral_ agent sin? |
| 38621 | Can the Intelligence affirm that a state of moral impurity is better than a state of moral rectitude? |
| 38621 | Can we conceive of a greater absurdity than that? |
| 38621 | Can we conceive of a greater absurdity than this? |
| 38621 | Did ever a greater absurdity dance in the brain of a philosopher or theologian? |
| 38621 | Did he obey his Intelligence, or Sensibility there? |
| 38621 | Did the prior goodness of David make his acts of adultery and murder partly good and partly bad? |
| 38621 | Do we not know, however, as absolutely as we know anything, that we_ can not_ affirm perceived contradictions? |
| 38621 | Do we not necessarily affirm his virtue to be great in proportion to the strength of the propensity thus perfectly subjected to the Moral law? |
| 38621 | Does the Will never harmonize with the Sensibility in opposition to the Intelligence? |
| 38621 | Else why tell an individual he is to blame for being in such circumstances, and not to place himself there again? |
| 38621 | Has God given, or does our own reason give us, a standard of moral judgment of which no one can form a conception, or give us a definition? |
| 38621 | Has a God of truth and justice ever laid upon men such a requisition as that? |
| 38621 | Has not God himself affirmed in one revelation what he has denied in another? |
| 38621 | Has the Most High given two such revelations as this? |
| 38621 | Have we any reason for thus imposing upon the Deity the limitation of our own feebleness? |
| 38621 | How can Necessitarians meet this argument? |
| 38621 | How can an equal liability to two distinct and opposite courses, be a ground of assurance, that we shall choose the one, and avoid the other? |
| 38621 | How can the Necessitarian account for such facts in consistency with his theory? |
| 38621 | How do we know that these two facts are not perfectly consistent with each other? |
| 38621 | How do you remove them according to your theory? |
| 38621 | How long would it take him to compose himself to sleep in this manner? |
| 38621 | How shall we account for the absence of self- reproach in the former instance, and for its presence in the latter? |
| 38621 | How shall we account, in consistency with this theory, for the existence of this idea in the mind? |
| 38621 | How then can a mind, thus constituted, generate and confirm the habit of sinning? |
| 38621 | How then can creatures"sin_ in_ and_ through_ another"six thousand years before their own existence commenced? |
| 38621 | How, I ask, can the doctrine of Necessity be extricated from such a difficulty? |
| 38621 | How, it is asked, shall we account, on this theory, for_ particular_ volitions? |
| 38621 | If A and B are to the Intelligence, in all respects, absolutely equal, how can the Sensibility impel the Will towards A instead of B? |
| 38621 | If this is so, sin, in all instances, is a mere blunder, a necessary result of a necessary misjudgment of the Intelligence? |
| 38621 | In such an assertion, is he not wise, not only_ above_, but_ against_ what is written? |
| 38621 | In this respect, has it altogether a superiority over the doctrine of Necessity? |
| 38621 | In what sense does God purpose, preordain, and bring to pass, the voluntary conduct of moral agents? |
| 38621 | In what sense, then, have they power to will and act differently according to this doctrine? |
| 38621 | In what sense, then, is or is not, man free, according to the doctrine of Necessity? |
| 38621 | Is it in the power of the Intelligence to affirm guilt of that creature? |
| 38621 | Is it or is it not, real Necessity, and nothing else? |
| 38621 | Is it possible for me, in my present circumstances, to avoid sin? |
| 38621 | Is it so? |
| 38621 | Is it the doctrine really held by those who professedly agree with him? |
| 38621 | Is not the guilt of the individual aggravated in proportion to the depth and intensity of the feeling which he is endeavoring to suppress? |
| 38621 | Is not this loving with all the heart? |
| 38621 | Is not this the strangest idea of Natural Ability as constituting the foundation of obligation, of which the human mind ever tried to conceive? |
| 38621 | Is not this your real meaning? |
| 38621 | Is not your Natural Ability this, that I might obey if I did obey? |
| 38621 | Is not_ existence_ necessary to moral agency? |
| 38621 | Is there any virtue at all in such a state of mind? |
| 38621 | Is this Liberty as distinguished from Necessity the liberty which lays the foundation of moral obligation? |
| 38621 | Is this Liberty, the only liberty of man, a liberty which may be destroyed by chains, bolts, and bars? |
| 38621 | Is this a true exposition of the Government of God? |
| 38621 | Is this the philosophy of the Will pre- supposed in the Bible? |
| 38621 | Is this the philosophy pre- supposed in the Bible? |
| 38621 | Is this the philosophy pre- supposed in the Bible? |
| 38621 | Is this the principle on which the decisions of that Day are based? |
| 38621 | Is this your idea, when you say, you can do as you please? |
| 38621 | Is this, for example, the doctrine of Edwards? |
| 38621 | It becomes a very important inquiry with us, To what extent, and in what sense, is this maxim true? |
| 38621 | It is therefore a very legitimate, interesting, and profitable inquiry-- what is the system of mental science assumed as true in the Bible? |
| 38621 | It must be so, if the doctrine of Liberty is not, and that of Necessity is, the doctrine of the Bible? |
| 38621 | Now an important question arises, By what_ standard_ shall we judge of the moral character of intentions? |
| 38621 | Now, how happens it, that no man holding the doctrine of Liberty was ever known to deny that of obligation, or of merit and demerit? |
| 38621 | Now, what are these opinions, judgments, and notions? |
| 38621 | Now, what is the doctrine of Ability, according to this scheme? |
| 38621 | Of what use can the internal revelation be, but to render us necessarily sceptical in respect to the external? |
| 38621 | Shall he plead these in excuse for sin? |
| 38621 | Shall we not then have almost inextricably lost ourselves in the labyrinth of error? |
| 38621 | The first inquiry that presents itself is this: Do Necessitarians hold the doctrine of Necessity as defined in this chapter? |
| 38621 | The first inquiry which naturally arises here is What is the proper meaning of this proposition? |
| 38621 | The public are entirely deceived by this definition, and because they are deceived as to the theory intended by it, do they admit it as true? |
| 38621 | The question is, Are these virtues or affections, presented in the Bible as mere convictions of the Intelligence, or states of the Sensibility? |
| 38621 | The question is, can an individual intend to obey and to disobey the law, in one and the same act? |
| 38621 | The question is, does the belief of the doctrine of Liberty tend intrinsically to induce the exercise of this spirit? |
| 38621 | The question now arises, in the light of all these great truths, What relation do the Divine purposes and agency sustain to human action? |
| 38621 | The question now returns, Is"the Will always as the greatest apparent good,"in either of the senses of the phrase as above defined? |
| 38621 | Under such circumstances, who should not be admonished, that he should"dig deep, and lay his foundation upon a rock?" |
| 38621 | WE are now prepared to consider the question, whether each moral act, or exercise, is not always of a character purely unmixed? |
| 38621 | Was not the conflict between the two, and did not the latter prevail? |
| 38621 | Was the Intelligence deceived in this instance? |
| 38621 | We are now prepared to meet the question, To which of the relations above defined shall we refer the phenomena of the Will? |
| 38621 | We may properly ask the Necessitarian whence he obtained this knowledge, so vast and deep; whence he has thus"found out the Almighty to perfection?" |
| 38621 | What do such facts indicate? |
| 38621 | What excuse have you for not yielding to that conviction?" |
| 38621 | What if a philosopher, for that reason, should form his theory of optics by looking at the stars? |
| 38621 | What if he should with all possible intensity will to walk? |
| 38621 | What if the decisions of our courts of justice were based upon data from which the testimony of all material witnesses has been formally excluded? |
| 38621 | What if the devil, and all creatures called sinners, had always done the same thing? |
| 38621 | What if, from the fact, that the Will has its law, it should be assumed that Liberty is that law? |
| 38621 | What individual that has ever perpetrated such deeds has not said, and can not say with truth,"I know the good, and approve it; yet follow the bad?" |
| 38621 | What is an event without a cause, if this is not? |
| 38621 | What is self- denial but placing the Will with the Intelligence, in opposition to the Sensibility? |
| 38621 | What is that in which, according to the express teaching of inspiration, we learn the nature of this love? |
| 38621 | What is the evidence? |
| 38621 | What is the nature of this love? |
| 38621 | What is this but a voluntary act? |
| 38621 | What is this spirit? |
| 38621 | What is this, but a positive assertion, that a moral action of a mixed character is an impossibility? |
| 38621 | What more can be said of God, or of any being ever so pure, than that he has always done what his Intellect affirmed to be best? |
| 38621 | What more can properly or wisely be demanded? |
| 38621 | What more ought a moral agent to intend than the highest good he can accomplish? |
| 38621 | What must have been his intention in so doing? |
| 38621 | What must intelligent beings think of probation for a state of eternal retribution, probation based on such a principle? |
| 38621 | What other meaning can we attach to the phrase,"forsaketh all that he hath?" |
| 38621 | What shall we think of these two states? |
| 38621 | What then are the extent and limits of the Liberty of the Will? |
| 38621 | What then becomes of the objection under consideration? |
| 38621 | What then is the exclusive tendency of this doctrine? |
| 38621 | What would be the consequence? |
| 38621 | What would be the response of an assembled universe to a division based upon such a principle? |
| 38621 | What would be thought of such a treatise? |
| 38621 | What, on this supposition, is the meaning of the declaration,"How can ye, who are_ accustomed_ to do evil, learn to do well?" |
| 38621 | What, then, according to the theory of Necessity, becomes of the doctrine of Ability? |
| 38621 | What, then, is Liberty as opposed to Moral Servitude? |
| 38621 | When you say that I might obey, if I chose, I would ask, if choosing, as in the command,"choose life,"is not the very thing required of me? |
| 38621 | When, therefore, you affirm that I might obey, if I chose, does it not mean, in reality, that I might choose, if I should choose? |
| 38621 | Whence this solitary intruder in the human mind? |
| 38621 | Where is the conceivable ground for the imputation of moral guilt to them? |
| 38621 | Where is the individual that, unaided by an influence out of himself, has ever attained to a dominion over his own spirit? |
| 38621 | Where is the tendency to induce a spirit of dependence, in such a conviction? |
| 38621 | Where then is the place for error, for wrong opinions, and pre- judgments? |
| 38621 | Who believes that? |
| 38621 | Who can believe, that the pillars of God''s eternal government rest upon such a doctrine? |
| 38621 | Who does not know, that the great difficulty lies in the enslavement of the Will to a depraved Sensibility? |
| 38621 | Who would dare affirm the contrary? |
| 38621 | Who would dare to affirm, when he has any particular emotions, that all moral agents in existence are bound to have those identical feelings? |
| 38621 | Who would dare to say that there is? |
| 38621 | Who would look to such decisions as the exponents of truth and justice? |
| 38621 | Why did I not?" |
| 38621 | Why do I not now experience pleasure instead of pain, as a consequence of that injury? |
| 38621 | Why do we not blame the animal for this nature? |
| 38621 | Why may we not know, with equal certainty, whether the phenomena of the Will do or do not fall under the relation of Liberty? |
| 38621 | Why should the study of the Will be an exception? |
| 38621 | Why should we doubt or deny it in the latter? |
| 38621 | Why? |
| 38621 | With such knowledge and resources, can God exercise no government, but that of a degraded sovereignty in the realm of mind? |
| 5651 | ''Lora: you are happy now? |
| 5651 | ''The temptation of a bribe? |
| 5651 | A poodle dog,cried I eagerly,"with his coat unclipped,--a rough brown dog?" |
| 5651 | About this? 5651 Adelais, O Adelais,"he cried in his despair,"Why will you refuse me always? |
| 5651 | Adelais,said he, presently,"you do not love me?" |
| 5651 | Ah? 5651 And Antoine?" |
| 5651 | And does she wish it too? |
| 5651 | And the luck has not turned yet in Saint- Cyr''s case, I suppose? |
| 5651 | And the mule? |
| 5651 | And where does Noemi Bergeron live? |
| 5651 | And who is your generous benefactor? |
| 5651 | And will you always keep silence? |
| 5651 | And you and he are engaged to be married, is it not so? |
| 5651 | And you can tell me nothing about her now,--you know no more than that? |
| 5651 | And you go alone? |
| 5651 | And you-- have you business in Bale? |
| 5651 | Both of us? |
| 5651 | But it can not cost you much to live, Noemi? |
| 5651 | But may I, without danger of seeming too inquisitive, ask you one question more? |
| 5651 | Dead? |
| 5651 | Dear friend, why should you leave us? 5651 Did no one ever tell you anything about its history,"I asked,"or were you never asked any questions about it until now?" |
| 5651 | Do I look as if I were traveling for pleasure''s sake? |
| 5651 | Do n''t you know, Miss? |
| 5651 | Do n''t you know? |
| 5651 | Do you, then,I asked,"desire the whole world to abandon the use of fire in preparing food and drink?" |
| 5651 | Father,he asked, tremulously,"shall I not see that good Gluck again and tell the monks how he saved me, and how Fritz and Bruno brought you here?" |
| 5651 | Have you any idea,said I, at last,"whether there''s any story connected with that place where I slept last night? |
| 5651 | Have you told''Tista anything? |
| 5651 | Hein? |
| 5651 | How can that be? |
| 5651 | How many? |
| 5651 | How old do you suppose the patient to be? |
| 5651 | I am to tell her this--asked Herr Ritter, recovering himself with a prodigious effort"from you?" |
| 5651 | I sold half a metre of it about three weeks ago,said she slowly,"to Noemi Bergeron; you know her, perhaps? |
| 5651 | If I tell you at all, boy,said the wine- merchant,"I shall tell you the truth; can you hold your peace like a man of discretion?" |
| 5651 | If this be so,said I,"why did you build your house in the midst of this forest, and why are there no shutters to the windows? |
| 5651 | Indeed? |
| 5651 | Innocent-- she innocent? 5651 Is it a good road from here to--?" |
| 5651 | Lace- making does not pay well, then? |
| 5651 | My dear Frau''Lora, who thinks of such things twice? 5651 My little old gentleman dead? |
| 5651 | No more? |
| 5651 | So,said I, taking a chair beside her,"you are going to earn your living again by making lace?" |
| 5651 | The fruit- seller''s child? 5651 The same price, then, Herr? |
| 5651 | Then after yet another ten years had passed, they sent a third time, asking,''What dost thou claim to be, Gotama?'' 5651 Then, Maurice, you do n''t care to see her once more before you sail? |
| 5651 | They,I interpolated,--"is the wife, then, also ill?" |
| 5651 | This, then,asked''Lora, gently,"is why you gave up the world, that you might be alone?" |
| 5651 | Tista, how is your mother today? |
| 5651 | Was it a love story, Eugene? |
| 5651 | What are trumps? |
| 5651 | What did she say? 5651 What have I done, monsieur?" |
| 5651 | What person is that? |
| 5651 | What''s that to you? |
| 5651 | What,--Antoine? |
| 5651 | When are we to be shot? |
| 5651 | Where am I? |
| 5651 | Who are they? |
| 5651 | Who is that? |
| 5651 | Why,said they,"do you suffer your subjects to die for your daughter''s sake? |
| 5651 | Will ye just step in now and take somethin''? 5651 Will you tell me, madame,"said I with my most agreeable air,"whether you recollect having sold any of that tinsel ribbon lately, and to whom?" |
| 5651 | Willum, do n''t ye think as the gentleman might be put to sleep in the room up at the House, where George slept last time he was here to see us? 5651 Wo n''t you have one of them, Herr Ritter?" |
| 5651 | Yes; Signora,he answered, mildly,"I bring you this letter; may I beg you will read it now, before I go? |
| 5651 | You know the girl,she squeaked, eyeing me greedily,--"will you pay her rent? |
| 5651 | You lave no regrets, then, Herr Ritter? |
| 5651 | You say you slept last night in Steepside mansion? |
| 5651 | You turned her out? |
| 5651 | You will have no companions to join you? |
| 5651 | -------------"How can you have the answer before I have written it?" |
| 5651 | 7 for a moment? |
| 5651 | And I awoke, repeating to myself the question,"How could one woman become three?" |
| 5651 | And I heard them say one to another,"Brother, what hast thou in thy casket?" |
| 5651 | And as for the lesser considerations of our daily being, what are they? |
| 5651 | And the Carpenter answered,"How then shall the Temple of the Lord be builded? |
| 5651 | And the other asked him,"What buildest thou, brother?" |
| 5651 | And this open country under the eastern night,--is it not the same in which they were"abiding,"to whom that Birth was first angelically announced? |
| 5651 | And was the wedding- day fixed? |
| 5651 | And why do they write backwards? |
| 5651 | And, shall I tell you what else I am thinking about, Herr Ritter? |
| 5651 | Are not their very creeds pretexts for slaughter and persecution and fraud? |
| 5651 | Are we not of three Ages, and is the temple yet perfected?" |
| 5651 | Are you mad, or a fool, that you do not know every one can see from without into your lighted rooms?" |
| 5651 | Art thou not of Solomon, and he of Christ? |
| 5651 | Before I accept your kindness, will you permit me to tell you the nature of the journey I am making? |
| 5651 | Birth lights, or funeral pyre? |
| 5651 | But I may go and thank her myself; I may go and thank her?" |
| 5651 | But he who sat next the last speaker answered,"Truth also is partial; for where is he among us who shall be able to see as God sees?" |
| 5651 | But she made answer very sadly and slowly:--"Stephen, ought the living and the dead to we d with one another? |
| 5651 | But supposing Adelais loved you, and my father and-- and-- everybody else you know, wished her to be your wife, how would you feel towards her then? |
| 5651 | But tell me, Cameron, for you know I must needs divine something from all this; your sister loves my boy Maurice?" |
| 5651 | But then, if not? |
| 5651 | But what is that strange singing I hear beneath your cloak?" |
| 5651 | But what noise is that yonder?" |
| 5651 | But you are a strange old darling, are n''t you, Herr Ritter?" |
| 5651 | But, Adelais, is there nothing more than this that troubles you? |
| 5651 | But, pardon me, are you a stranger in this city, sir?" |
| 5651 | Ca n''t you come over here and play for me?" |
| 5651 | Can you tell me anything of your lodger, Noemi Bergeron?" |
| 5651 | Can you tell? |
| 5651 | Could I make them any wiser, purer, gentler, truer than they are? |
| 5651 | Could I teach them to be honest in their dealings with each other, compassionate, considerate, liberal? |
| 5651 | Could any one be angry with her? |
| 5651 | Could it have been upon the page before I turned it? |
| 5651 | Do n''t you see my heart is breaking for love of you? |
| 5651 | Do n''t you think him like a baby, monsieur?" |
| 5651 | Do they not support even their holiest truths, their sincerest beliefs, by organised systems of deceit and chicanery? |
| 5651 | Do you think me a child to be fooled by such a tale?" |
| 5651 | Does monsieur know me, then?" |
| 5651 | Does not this suffice?--is not the end great enough to justify the means?" |
| 5651 | For him I can not refuse the money; can I, Herr? |
| 5651 | For of what value to man is the Mind without the Soul? |
| 5651 | Gleams from the altar- lamps seven? |
| 5651 | Have you been there this evening?" |
| 5651 | Have you found it sweet, Frau''Lora? |
| 5651 | Have you not heard the story of my lion?" |
| 5651 | Have you not lost a brown poodle with a ribbon like this round his throat?" |
| 5651 | Have you not often spoken before of dying, and yet have lived on? |
| 5651 | How can I get money-- and get it quickly-- for her sake and for the child''s?'' |
| 5651 | How can that be?" |
| 5651 | How could I tell him that he interested me so much as to make me long to know the romance which, I felt convinced, attached to his expedition? |
| 5651 | How could a myth give me this living bird?" |
| 5651 | How could he tell her that Maurice had already found himself a rich handsome wife in India? |
| 5651 | How shall we understand this word` perfection''?" |
| 5651 | I repeated,"Noemi dead?" |
| 5651 | I suppose you will be married soon now, wo n''t you?" |
| 5651 | If they have not heard the prophets, nor even the divine teacher of Nazareth, shall I be able to do them any good? |
| 5651 | In the mangled corpses and entrails of these victims our augurs find the knowledges we seek,""And what knowledges are they?" |
| 5651 | Is it the breaking of day? |
| 5651 | Is it the glare of a fire? |
| 5651 | Is it your wish then that these two should marry?" |
| 5651 | Is n''t it good of him? |
| 5651 | Is this the bitter end of all, and must I lose my darling so? |
| 5651 | May you tell me, as we sit here together? |
| 5651 | O why should you die now and break my heart outright?" |
| 5651 | Or did he sink into the reeling swirl of the foaming waters, and die more mercifully in their steel- dark depths? |
| 5651 | Or shall I never leave purgatory, but burn, and burn, and burn there always uncleansed? |
| 5651 | Presently I ventured another question:"You go on business, perhaps-- not on pleasure?" |
| 5651 | Shall I ever go to paradise-- to paradise where the saints are? |
| 5651 | Shall I tell it to you, Lizzie? |
| 5651 | She must have known he was married, for why else did he not marry her? |
| 5651 | She paused at the door and added shyly,"You will really come tomorrow morning?" |
| 5651 | She put her hand into his, and fixing the clear light of her brown eyes full upon him:"Why,"she said, hurriedly,"do you ask me this? |
| 5651 | Shortly after the dream began, my partner addressed me, saying,"Do you play by luck or by skill?" |
| 5651 | Should I go to bed? |
| 5651 | Should I, too, be sucked in and absorbed, and perhaps C. after me, knowing nothing of my fate? |
| 5651 | Signs of the Times Eyes of the dawning in heaven? |
| 5651 | Silence? |
| 5651 | Slept well last night, sir?" |
| 5651 | Sparks from the opening of hell? |
| 5651 | Stephen, Stephen, do n''t you see that I am dying?" |
| 5651 | That is so, is it not, monsieur,--is it not?" |
| 5651 | That she is poor, in want, widowed, and almost dying?" |
| 5651 | The boy''Tista surely came with the morning, and learned at last, even though too late, who had been his unknown friend?" |
| 5651 | The idea flashed on me that he would certainly turn, and then-- what could happen? |
| 5651 | The world? |
| 5651 | Then they said,"Where is that country of which you speak, and who is this wonderful Princess?" |
| 5651 | This empty picture had, moreover, an odd metallic coloring which fascinated me; and saying to myself"Is there really any painting on it?" |
| 5651 | To what end do you plod there every day,--you who are wifeless and childless, and have no need of money for yourself? |
| 5651 | Was I doomed? |
| 5651 | Was he speared on those terrible shafts of rock below, or was his life dashed out in horrible crimson splashes against the cliffside? |
| 5651 | Was it the shock of an emotion coming unexpected and intense after all those dreary weeks of futile watchfulness? |
| 5651 | Was it the strong love in St. Aubyn''s cry that broke through the spell of disease and thrilled his child''s dulled nerves into life? |
| 5651 | Was this sarcastic? |
| 5651 | Well, Herr Ritter, I daresay you think my story a very long one, do n''t you? |
| 5651 | What can you gain by shooting an old man such as he?" |
| 5651 | What do you think of it now, Herr Ritter? |
| 5651 | What if indeed I have been dreaming; what if this, after all, should be the real world, and the other a mere fantasy?" |
| 5651 | What is Adelais Cameron to me, when all my world is here?" |
| 5651 | What is the matter?" |
| 5651 | What is this Inn, I wondered, all the rooms of which are haunted, and in which the Christ can not be born? |
| 5651 | What more could she want? |
| 5651 | What say you to taking me along with you? |
| 5651 | What wonder that Philip had been deceived into believing her false? |
| 5651 | What, have you lost him too, then, as well as Bambin?" |
| 5651 | What, then, did the father do? |
| 5651 | Where is he among us who could attain to such a state? |
| 5651 | Where then is this guide? |
| 5651 | Who are They?" |
| 5651 | Who could have anticipated or suspected this cheerful welcome, these entertaining literati, these innocent- looking frescoes? |
| 5651 | Who could have foreseen so deadly a horror in such a guise? |
| 5651 | Who shall say? |
| 5651 | Why did not the Gods decree my death before I brought thee into the world?" |
| 5651 | Why doom us to perish daily by the poisonous breath of the dragon?" |
| 5651 | Why must those always die who are needed most, while such as I live on from year to year? |
| 5651 | Why should the Soul be respected where nothing else is spared? |
| 5651 | Why should you have taken him out before the eyes of the cat?" |
| 5651 | Why will you do these things?" |
| 5651 | Will they let me in there?--will they suffer my soul among them? |
| 5651 | Will you come back with me, for I think she has something particular to say to you?" |
| 5651 | Will you have them?" |
| 5651 | Will you marry Pauline this autumn and take her with you to the south?'' |
| 5651 | Will you not wait for it?" |
| 5651 | Will you suffer the-- the fault of ten years ago to bear weight upon your sisterly kindness,--your human compassion and sympathy, now?" |
| 5651 | Ye look tired like, this morning; didna get much rest p''raps? |
| 5651 | You chose to be silent?" |
| 5651 | You do n''t want to say goodbye?" |
| 5651 | You have been to the town again?" |
| 5651 | You remember, Lizzie, what a wonderfully bright and beautiful sunset it was this evening? |
| 5651 | You will not refuse me the last request I shall make you, Phil? |
| 5651 | You wish to speak to me?" |
| 5651 | ` And the child?'' |
| 5651 | ` Do you believe I would have done what I did for mere coin?" |
| 5651 | ` What ails you, foolish old woman? |
| 5651 | a message?" |
| 5651 | and I do n''t think she would mind my asking her this, though we did part in anger; do you? |
| 5651 | but ought I to take it, Herr?" |
| 5651 | can he be-- do you think-- can he be an Angel in disguise? |
| 5651 | cried he, his whole manner changing in a moment from easy indifference to earnest interest:"what, you will part with this after all? |
| 5651 | he groaned in his unutterable despair;"is there no hope, no redemption, no retrieving of the past? |
| 5651 | how am I to send the answer? |
| 5651 | no? |
| 5651 | said the gentleman, looking up from his book;"what is that?" |
| 5651 | she cried; and her voice was half choked with contending anger and despair,"I am his wife; and what then is she? |
| 5651 | she said,"what have you done? |
| 5651 | she sent me a note? |
| 5651 | was her retort, as she paused in her meal and stared at me;"do you want to buy the rest of it?" |
| 5651 | what has happened? |
| 5651 | where are you?" |
| 5651 | you have been? |
| 39212 | And are you glad to see me, Gertie? |
| 39212 | And do you care for me still? |
| 39212 | And if you touched and handled them? |
| 39212 | And see you? |
| 39212 | And the same silk? |
| 39212 | And what can I do, May? |
| 39212 | And what is your name? |
| 39212 | And will it? |
| 39212 | And your famous knots? |
| 39212 | Anything wrong? |
| 39212 | Are there any letters from China? |
| 39212 | Are those your daughters, sir? |
| 39212 | Are you Kate''s friend? |
| 39212 | Are you any relation to Major M----? |
| 39212 | Are you coming to see us to- morrow? |
| 39212 | Are you my little Gertie, darling? |
| 39212 | Are you_ quite sure_,I asked,"that it is the same paper in which you wrapt it?" |
| 39212 | But how about the arterial silk? |
| 39212 | But how can I marry again unless he dies? |
| 39212 | But if you heard them speak? |
| 39212 | But where are your sisters? |
| 39212 | But where is''Yonnie''? |
| 39212 | But why should it make her ill? |
| 39212 | But why? 39212 But your crest and seal?" |
| 39212 | But_ when_ do you see me? |
| 39212 | But_ when_? |
| 39212 | Ca n''t you tell us who you are? |
| 39212 | Can not you see? |
| 39212 | Can you tell me why that gentleman left so suddenly? |
| 39212 | Did I weep? |
| 39212 | Did n''t I say it was in the church at----? |
| 39212 | Did you know the spirit? |
| 39212 | Do n''t you remember I cut it off just before I left this world? |
| 39212 | Do you expect to see any friends to- night? |
| 39212 | Do you know who_ I_ am? |
| 39212 | Do you mean to tell me you are frightened of your medium? 39212 Florence, my darling,"I said,"is this_ really_ you?" |
| 39212 | Good gracious,they said,"do n''t you know that that hotel was built on the site of the old barracks? |
| 39212 | Had she any peculiarity about her feet? |
| 39212 | Has not the coffin left my house? |
| 39212 | Has not the death you spoke of taken place_ now_? |
| 39212 | Have you come for me, my friend? |
| 39212 | Have you ever seen anybody whom you recognized? |
| 39212 | Have you ever seen your grave? |
| 39212 | Have you never lost a relation of her age? |
| 39212 | How can I tell this is_ your_ hand? |
| 39212 | How could she come to me then? |
| 39212 | How did you meet him? |
| 39212 | How do you account for it? |
| 39212 | How long will it take you to do so? |
| 39212 | How was it your body was never found? |
| 39212 | Is it my husband''s? |
| 39212 | Is it you, Emily? |
| 39212 | Is there anyone here who recognizes the name of''Bluebell''? |
| 39212 | Is_ this_ the death you prophesied? |
| 39212 | It is, indeed,said the man;"and it is in the church at----?" |
| 39212 | It seems too marvellous to be true; but how_ can_ I disbelieve it, when_ here she is_? |
| 39212 | Jones,she falters,"are you happy?" |
| 39212 | Katieenjoyed my surprise, and asked me,"Ai n''t I prettier than Florrie now?" |
| 39212 | May I take you in my arms? |
| 39212 | My darling child,I said, as I embraced her,"why did you ask for''Bluebell''?" |
| 39212 | Nor your seal been tampered with? |
| 39212 | Of what was my chasuble made? |
| 39212 | Pourquoi, Valerie? |
| 39212 | QUI BONO? |
| 39212 | Sha n''t I come soon, darling? |
| 39212 | Stop a minute,I said,"this person whom you have alluded to so often-- have I ever met him?" |
| 39212 | Surely you are not suffering still? |
| 39212 | Then by what means,I argued,"do you know that I am Florence Marryat? |
| 39212 | Then will you open the packet? |
| 39212 | To which medium shall I go? |
| 39212 | Was there foul play? |
| 39212 | What a mother? |
| 39212 | What are_ graves_ to us? 39212 What did you do to me last night?" |
| 39212 | What do you make of it? |
| 39212 | What do you wish me to do for you? |
| 39212 | What is the matter with me, Sir John? |
| 39212 | What is the matter, dear? |
| 39212 | What is the matter? |
| 39212 | What is your own name? |
| 39212 | What is your real name? |
| 39212 | What necktie? |
| 39212 | What shall I call you, then? |
| 39212 | What was his name? |
| 39212 | What was his object in doing so? |
| 39212 | What where you doing there? |
| 39212 | What''s a dog? |
| 39212 | What''s the matter, Peter? |
| 39212 | When did he murder you? |
| 39212 | Where am I to send? |
| 39212 | Where did you meet him? |
| 39212 | Where is my chasuble? |
| 39212 | Where is your dress, Katie? |
| 39212 | Whereabouts? |
| 39212 | Who are you? |
| 39212 | Who are you? |
| 39212 | Who has told you of it? |
| 39212 | Who is he, Dewdrop? |
| 39212 | Who is it for? |
| 39212 | Who_ can_ it be? |
| 39212 | Whom have you seen? |
| 39212 | Whom will you bring? |
| 39212 | Why do you wish to know? |
| 39212 | Will you come to me, darling? |
| 39212 | Will you explain your meaning to me? |
| 39212 | Will you fetch some one for us, Charlie? |
| 39212 | Yes, I do recognize you, my dear child,I replied;"but what makes you come to me?" |
| 39212 | You do n''t want to come back then, Ted? |
| 39212 | You know her name, do n''t you? |
| 39212 | Your knots have not been untied? |
| 39212 | _ Forgive!_I repeated,"What have I to forgive?" |
| 39212 | _ Not alive!_she echoed;"did n''t God make it?" |
| 39212 | _ You do n''t recognize him?_she repeated in an incredulous tone,"then you must be very dull. |
| 39212 | ( At this juncture I asked,"How can I prevent it?") |
| 39212 | ("Did the trouble I had before your birth affect your spirit, Florence?") |
| 39212 | ("Do you ever see your father?") |
| 39212 | ("Do you know your sisters, Eva and Ethel?") |
| 39212 | ("What can I do to bring you nearer to me?") |
| 39212 | Abrow?" |
| 39212 | And did it ever strike you that there is something else recorded in the Bible? |
| 39212 | And if Mr. Haxby has played a trick on me, as you suppose, why did you not discover the slit when you examined the box, before opening?" |
| 39212 | And what_ good_ does it do? |
| 39212 | And which, amongst the philosophers I have alluded to, could suggest a simpler mode of communication? |
| 39212 | Are you quite happy?" |
| 39212 | At this remark I laughed; and Mr. Abrow said,"Is she come for you, madam? |
| 39212 | But do we not often ask the same question with respect to those still existent here below? |
| 39212 | But how did I know of the occurrence the_ night before_ it took place? |
| 39212 | But shall I gain it?" |
| 39212 | But what has Religion given us instead? |
| 39212 | But why afraid of an impossibility? |
| 39212 | Ca n''t you stop them?" |
| 39212 | Did you ever pay Johnson the seventeen pounds twelve you received for my saddlery?" |
| 39212 | Did you suppose I was going to let you waste all your power with them, when I knew I was going home with you and Mrs. Ross- Church? |
| 39212 | Do n''t you wish you had my garden? |
| 39212 | Do you answer to the description?" |
| 39212 | Do you know who I am?" |
| 39212 | Do you see that it is Florrie lying there?" |
| 39212 | Do you suppose that we poor mortals have been thus abandoned? |
| 39212 | Do you think I have never seen you since that time, nor heard anything about you? |
| 39212 | Do you think it is possible he may not have sailed after all?" |
| 39212 | Does the cap fit?" |
| 39212 | Fitzgerald?" |
| 39212 | For whom do you come?" |
| 39212 | Have they been ordered back? |
| 39212 | Have they perished? |
| 39212 | Have you been playing any of your tricks upon me?" |
| 39212 | Have you quite forgotten?" |
| 39212 | He kept on reiterating,"Who brought me here? |
| 39212 | He replied,"Forgotten little Flo? |
| 39212 | He says,''Is Mrs. Ross- Church at home?'' |
| 39212 | He seemed quite delighted to be able to manifest so indisputably like himself, and remarked more than once,"I''m not much like a girl now, am I, Ma?" |
| 39212 | Her incessant questions of"What''s a father?" |
| 39212 | How was that?" |
| 39212 | How_ dared_ you send for me?" |
| 39212 | I am sure when she let it fall again there must have been thirty or forty holes, and"Katie"said,"Is n''t that a nice cullender?" |
| 39212 | I asked her,"Are you cold?" |
| 39212 | I asked her,"When will my husband die?" |
| 39212 | I asked the influence,"Who are you?" |
| 39212 | I asked,"Are you_ quite_ sure that the packet could not be undone without your detecting it?" |
| 39212 | I asked,"By what name shall we pray for him?" |
| 39212 | I asked,"Is it my own coffin?" |
| 39212 | I asked,"Who are you?" |
| 39212 | I asked,"and for whom do you come?" |
| 39212 | I exclaimed,"have you come back to see me at last?" |
| 39212 | I exclaimed,"is anything wrong with her?" |
| 39212 | I exclaimed,"where is your beard?" |
| 39212 | I had never set eyes on him till that moment; but I said at once to Mr. Grossmith,"Do you see that officer in the undress uniform? |
| 39212 | I said,"What''s the good of my coming here? |
| 39212 | I said,"_ Who is this?_"and she whispered,"_ Florence_,"and laid her head down on my shoulder, and kissed my neck. |
| 39212 | I said,"after all these years?" |
| 39212 | I said,"why did you come to me last night in a green riding habit?" |
| 39212 | I said;"ca n''t you speak to me to- night?" |
| 39212 | I suppose you are a Catholic?" |
| 39212 | I whispered,"Who is this?" |
| 39212 | If I had not been convinced before, how could I have helped being convinced then? |
| 39212 | If her story was untrue,_ who_ had so minutely informed her of a circumstance which it was to the interest of all concerned to keep to themselves? |
| 39212 | In"Young Mr. Ainslie''s Courtship"he has written a story which is charming, witty? |
| 39212 | Is it to be wondered at? |
| 39212 | Is that the case?" |
| 39212 | Is that the certificate you want?" |
| 39212 | Is this logical? |
| 39212 | Is this_ your_ room? |
| 39212 | Is_ this_ belief in the existence of a tender Father and a blessed home waiting to receive them on the other side? |
| 39212 | Johnny Cope, is it you?" |
| 39212 | Lean,"she said, hurriedly, noting my surprise,"do n''t you know me? |
| 39212 | May I take it away with me?" |
| 39212 | Mr. Stacke said to me,"Who is this?" |
| 39212 | Mrs. Holmes said to me,"Can not you remember_ anyone_ of that age connected with you in the spirit world? |
| 39212 | Necromancy is a terrible word, is it not? |
| 39212 | No cousin, nor niece, nor sister, nor the child of a friend?" |
| 39212 | Presently a soft voice said,"Aunt Flo, do n''t you know me?" |
| 39212 | Presently he turned to me and said, rather sheepishly,"Do you believe in this sort of thing?" |
| 39212 | Presently she asked me,"Who are you?" |
| 39212 | Prince Albert whispered to me,"Have you got anything?" |
| 39212 | Several times he exclaimed with knitted brows,"What is the matter with that door? |
| 39212 | Shall I ever hear from you again?" |
| 39212 | She and I were quite alone in the drawing- room, and after a little while I whispered softly,"Bessie, are you asleep?" |
| 39212 | She said to me,"Is that_ you_, Miss Marryat?" |
| 39212 | The only question appears to be,"_ What_ is it, and_ whence_ does the power proceed?" |
| 39212 | The priest started, but continued--"Who put it there?" |
| 39212 | Then Mr. Eglinton said to Mr. Lee,"Have you any friend in the spirit- world from whom you would like to hear? |
| 39212 | They were negroes without doubt; but how about the negro bouquet? |
| 39212 | Towns prognosticated on that occasion) Page 201,"conducter"changed to"conductor"("Did you know the spirit?" |
| 39212 | What are you doing?" |
| 39212 | What becomes, in the face of this story, of the impassable gulf between the earthly and spiritual spheres? |
| 39212 | What good do they do? |
| 39212 | What good is it to have one''s faith in Immortality and another life confirmed in an age of freethought, scepticism and utter callousness? |
| 39212 | What has become of them? |
| 39212 | What is more wonderful than the hatching of an egg? |
| 39212 | What is there to prevent your senses misleading you at the present moment?" |
| 39212 | What were they born for? |
| 39212 | When it came to my turn to question him, I said,"Do you see where I shall be to- morrow morning?" |
| 39212 | When we asked him what he was doing, he turned to us and said,"Are you ladies Spiritualists?" |
| 39212 | Wherein, then, lies the terror of the idea that these liberated spirits will have the privilege of roaming the universe as they will? |
| 39212 | Who brought me here?" |
| 39212 | Who can account for such things? |
| 39212 | Who can say where it dwells, or that it is not permitted to return to this world, perhaps to live in it altogether? |
| 39212 | Who does not remember the picture of the afflicted widow, for whom the medium has just called up the departed Jones? |
| 39212 | Who has fixed the abode of the spirit after death? |
| 39212 | Why ca n''t I speak at other places? |
| 39212 | Why do you never write to me?" |
| 39212 | Why has n''t Johnson received that money?" |
| 39212 | Why should I be disbelieved? |
| 39212 | Why should I be so? |
| 39212 | Why should I? |
| 39212 | Why should I? |
| 39212 | Why should he expect to be more kindly welcomed by a spiritual one? |
| 39212 | Why should it be? |
| 39212 | Why should what was_ then_ not be_ now_, and what more harm is there to apply for their aid now than a few thousand years ago? |
| 39212 | Why should you deceive him by saying so? |
| 39212 | Why should you suppose that they were permitted on the earth then and not permitted now? |
| 39212 | Why should you trust your senses in one case more than in the other? |
| 39212 | Why were they ever permitted to come? |
| 39212 | Why? |
| 39212 | Will he die?" |
| 39212 | Will you be my wife?'' |
| 39212 | Will you forgive too?" |
| 39212 | Will you not come to me?" |
| 39212 | Women would be told they should look after their own interests in the one case-- so why not in the other? |
| 39212 | You are not afraid of me, are you?" |
| 39212 | You''ll come here again, wo n''t you?" |
| 39212 | _ What is it?_"There, my friends, I confess you stagger me! |
| 39212 | _ What_ was it that had made this old lady foresee what no one else had seen? |
| 39212 | _ whom_ have you there? |
| 39212 | and I replied,"Yes; did n''t you send for me?" |
| 39212 | and she said,"Would n''t you be cold if you had nothing but this white thing on?" |
| 39212 | and the answer came back,"Do n''t you know me? |
| 39212 | do n''t you know me?" |
| 39212 | does it seem strange to you to hear your''baby''say things as if she knew them? |
| 39212 | is it really you? |
| 39212 | is n''t it lovely? |
| 39212 | is this really you?" |
| 39212 | mamma, why did you go away?--why did you go away?" |
| 39212 | may I try if your hair is a wig?" |
| 39212 | she exclaimed,"I said I would come with you and look after you-- didn''t I?" |
| 39212 | to where?--to heaven? |
| 39212 | what did Captain Gordon die of?" |
| 39212 | what did you do that for? |
| 39212 | what do you see?" |
| 44397 | ''Are you quite sure?'' 44397 ''Been to Helvore?'' |
| 44397 | ''But how about the speed with which the thing darted at us,''Parminter said,''and the feeling we all had that it possessed innumerable legs? 44397 ''But why did the monk crawl and make such a queer rattling noise?'' |
| 44397 | ''How are you, old chap?'' 44397 ''How dare you?'' |
| 44397 | ''Possibly,''Parminter said,''but how about the gas? 44397 ''Sounded like sighing, groaning, and so on?'' |
| 44397 | ''Then why the ghost?'' 44397 ''Then you feel certain the hauntings have now ceased?'' |
| 44397 | ''They have n''t seen anything?'' 44397 ''Well, how do you account for it?'' |
| 44397 | ''Where?'' 44397 ''Who are you?'' |
| 44397 | ''Who is it this time?'' 44397 ''Who is it?'' |
| 44397 | ''Will you come with me?'' 44397 ''You know the wood?'' |
| 44397 | A rum,John said at length,"or a gin? |
| 44397 | Am I? |
| 44397 | And big rents? |
| 44397 | And in each case death had taken place in bed? |
| 44397 | And in the event of your death,I remarked,"to whom do the title and estates revert?" |
| 44397 | And none of these symptoms were noticeable in the deceased? |
| 44397 | And the children? |
| 44397 | And what are your plans with regard to the Caspar Beeches? |
| 44397 | And you''ve forgiven me, John? |
| 44397 | And you''ve forgiven me? 44397 Anything the matter?" |
| 44397 | Are the Parrys of the ordinary servant class? |
| 44397 | But why should you haunt this place at all? |
| 44397 | But why this mystery? 44397 Ca n''t you appear to us with your head on,"Brown asked,"just as you were in your lifetime?" |
| 44397 | Can I be of any service to you? |
| 44397 | Can I ever forget it? 44397 Could the poison have been self- inflicted? |
| 44397 | Did you have the same doctor to all three of your relatives after their deaths had been discovered? |
| 44397 | Do I recollect it? |
| 44397 | Do you like them? |
| 44397 | Do you mean to tell me,Casson said"that neither of you saw a man in a blazer pass here just now?" |
| 44397 | Do you think of residing there? |
| 44397 | God''s truth, man, what do you mean by such a statement? |
| 44397 | Had he any children? |
| 44397 | Has all the furniture been taken away? |
| 44397 | Has the ghost been too much for you? |
| 44397 | Have the Parrys been with you long? |
| 44397 | Have you any idea what killed your late master and mistress? |
| 44397 | Have you come to consult me professionally? |
| 44397 | Have you no theory? |
| 44397 | Have you seen him? |
| 44397 | He ai n''t done nothing to you, has he? |
| 44397 | How did you come to suspect the clock, Vane? |
| 44397 | I did not answer her at once, but let her ramble on, till she suddenly turned to me and said,''Do you remember the last time I was here? 44397 Know of him?" |
| 44397 | May I speak to you in private, somewhere where there is no chance of our being overheard? |
| 44397 | Mercy on us, you do n''t intend going there? |
| 44397 | Mr. Wildbridge,he began, leaning forward and eyeing me intently,"do you believe in family curses?" |
| 44397 | Mr. Wotherall, was n''t it? |
| 44397 | New houses, are n''t they? |
| 44397 | No peculiarity in common? |
| 44397 | Now do you see it? |
| 44397 | Seen her? 44397 Seen who?" |
| 44397 | Sir Eldred? |
| 44397 | The son of Sir Thomas Mansfield, the Bornean explorer? |
| 44397 | The wind? |
| 44397 | Then you are the present baronet? |
| 44397 | Then you''re a rich man, John? |
| 44397 | Those candles,he said,"why do n''t they burn properly? |
| 44397 | Tired of life? |
| 44397 | Was there nothing else in the three cases that struck you as unusual? |
| 44397 | Well? |
| 44397 | What age is he? |
| 44397 | What do you mean? |
| 44397 | What do you want to interfere with Ephraim for? |
| 44397 | What do you want us to do? |
| 44397 | What is it? |
| 44397 | What is it? |
| 44397 | What is it? |
| 44397 | What is your opinion? 44397 What reason is there for your being earth- bound?" |
| 44397 | What was that? |
| 44397 | What''s become of him? |
| 44397 | What''s his name? |
| 44397 | What''s the matter? 44397 What, down there?" |
| 44397 | When were the deaths first discovered? |
| 44397 | Where is Rosalie? |
| 44397 | Which would render them more susceptible to the influence of poison? |
| 44397 | Who are you? |
| 44397 | Who are you? |
| 44397 | Who has the keys of the house? |
| 44397 | Who''s there? |
| 44397 | Who''s there? |
| 44397 | Who''s there? |
| 44397 | Whose funeral was it? |
| 44397 | Why are you standing? |
| 44397 | Why do you live alone? 44397 Why have you brought me here?" |
| 44397 | Why is the house in darkness? |
| 44397 | Why, what are you a- talking about? |
| 44397 | Why, whatever other kind of spirits are there? 44397 Why?" |
| 44397 | Would you like to go home? |
| 44397 | You are quite sure you have no near relatives? |
| 44397 | You are the only one left in your family? |
| 44397 | You do n''t know where he went, I suppose? |
| 44397 | You mean materialised thought forms? |
| 44397 | You think, of course, that you may share the fate of your mother, father, and brother? |
| 44397 | ''Do you want a job?'' |
| 44397 | ''How dare you annoy me like this? |
| 44397 | ''Was that all?'' |
| 44397 | ''What can have happened to him?'' |
| 44397 | ''What do you think it was?'' |
| 44397 | ''Who are you? |
| 44397 | ''Who is the poor wretch?'' |
| 44397 | ''You are not frightened,''I said;''you-- a member of the New Supernatural Investigation Society?'' |
| 44397 | ''You think you will see the murder, do you? |
| 44397 | -- Regency Square and fetch a lady and gentleman? |
| 44397 | --, ai n''t it?" |
| 44397 | And this house has none, has it? |
| 44397 | And yet, if that were so, why was I certain that they were not the footsteps of any trespasser from outside? |
| 44397 | And yet, what else could have produced that look of horror in the faces? |
| 44397 | And, after all, what is of more consequence than pure air which means health? |
| 44397 | Another pause, and then John said suddenly,"More brandy, Wilfred?" |
| 44397 | Any more questions?" |
| 44397 | Are n''t you coming?" |
| 44397 | Are people suffering with such a disease prone to suicide?" |
| 44397 | Are you sure? |
| 44397 | Are you tired of life, Wilfred?" |
| 44397 | Besides, why should a theatre be haunted? |
| 44397 | Bowles?" |
| 44397 | Brown ejaculated,"where was it?" |
| 44397 | But how did you know?" |
| 44397 | But what makes it blow about so? |
| 44397 | But why do you ask?" |
| 44397 | But why do you ask?" |
| 44397 | But why, I ask, do we not hear creaks in the daytime, when the traffic is more constant and changes in the temperature quite as marked? |
| 44397 | CHAPTER XIII THE PINES"Who is the most interesting person in this institution?" |
| 44397 | Comes to you regularly? |
| 44397 | Could it be the storm, or was it-- was it those trees? |
| 44397 | Dare you go on?" |
| 44397 | Did anyone recommend you?" |
| 44397 | Did he mean the wind? |
| 44397 | Did n''t you feel how intensely antagonistic it was to us?'' |
| 44397 | Did you want to see him?" |
| 44397 | Do n''t you know of any pretty cottage or picturesque old farm, near here, that I could stay at?'' |
| 44397 | Do you hear that?" |
| 44397 | Do you hear?'' |
| 44397 | Do you recollect the occasion?" |
| 44397 | Do you remember what you said? |
| 44397 | Do you remember your pet aversion in the way of ghosts?'' |
| 44397 | Do you see those shadows on the water? |
| 44397 | Do you still let rooms?" |
| 44397 | Do you think I should ask you round to my house, to drink the best vintage London can offer you, if I had n''t? |
| 44397 | Do you think he''s worth it?'' |
| 44397 | Does the general public know everything? |
| 44397 | Ever been there?'' |
| 44397 | Got over that little love affair, eh? |
| 44397 | Griffiths?" |
| 44397 | Have you never seen an almanac before?" |
| 44397 | He did n''t like my laugh, and he persisted:''Was that all you heard?'' |
| 44397 | He did n''t owe you anything, did he?" |
| 44397 | His eyes had tricked him in the kitchen; might they not trick him again out here, and in a rather more alarming manner? |
| 44397 | How can you see her, and why should she come to you?" |
| 44397 | How could a stone in a picture-- a thing of mere paint and canvas-- suddenly start rocking? |
| 44397 | How long had it been left, and where was its owner? |
| 44397 | I shouted out,"Can you tell me the way to the Gyp Mill?" |
| 44397 | I suppose, by the way, there is no doubt that this George Mansfield is my cousin?" |
| 44397 | I wonder if a murder did actually take place in that house? |
| 44397 | I wonder why he''s come back? |
| 44397 | If it wo n''t be tiring you too much, will you come and sit with me?" |
| 44397 | Is n''t it often used?" |
| 44397 | Is not the theatre, to it, simply the stage, and is it not profoundly ignorant of all that lies beyond the stage-- away back, behind the hidden wings? |
| 44397 | Is that you? |
| 44397 | Is there no way of seeing you-- just for a second?" |
| 44397 | It was rather lucky for me that I did n''t go there after all, was n''t it? |
| 44397 | May I take it home with me for a few nights?" |
| 44397 | Mrs. Griffiths demanded, abruptly breaking off from her pastry- making"A souvenir of your friend? |
| 44397 | Now, tell me-- of whom does your household at the Caspar Beeches consist?" |
| 44397 | Or both?" |
| 44397 | Or has my eyesight suddenly gone wrong?" |
| 44397 | Rats?" |
| 44397 | Rum or brandy?" |
| 44397 | Shall I marry him or not? |
| 44397 | Should I go? |
| 44397 | Sir George cried angrily,"what the deuce do you mean? |
| 44397 | Supposing you engage me as your secretary?" |
| 44397 | That does n''t look much like a disabled monk, does it?'' |
| 44397 | There was still time for flight, but whither could I go? |
| 44397 | Was n''t it funny?'' |
| 44397 | Was the terrible Bornean phantasm getting ready to manifest itself? |
| 44397 | Was there any family or hereditary disease?" |
| 44397 | Was there anything specially remarkable in the facial contractions or colour of the skin?" |
| 44397 | Was this the prelude to it? |
| 44397 | Water?" |
| 44397 | Were the victims in a normal state of health? |
| 44397 | What business had he there? |
| 44397 | What chance had I when you pointed to your bank- book and said,''If I die I can settle all that on her''? |
| 44397 | What could a black man and a young girl be doing prowling about the grounds of the Caspar Beeches at that hour of night? |
| 44397 | What did the wind sound like?'' |
| 44397 | What do you think, Mrs. de Roscovi?" |
| 44397 | What else could have killed them? |
| 44397 | What had become of him, he wondered? |
| 44397 | What had he been so carefully plotting with Craddock? |
| 44397 | What had he discovered? |
| 44397 | What in Heaven''s name can I do?" |
| 44397 | What in Heaven''s name had become of the thing? |
| 44397 | What is that?'' |
| 44397 | What is your opinion, Wilfred?" |
| 44397 | What should I see? |
| 44397 | What was it that made them different from other footsteps? |
| 44397 | What were we talking about? |
| 44397 | What''s that? |
| 44397 | What''s that?" |
| 44397 | What''s the good of love without prospects?" |
| 44397 | When would the horror drop from them? |
| 44397 | Whence would come the danger my instinct told me threatened him? |
| 44397 | Where could it be? |
| 44397 | Where had it got to? |
| 44397 | Where is he, I say?" |
| 44397 | Who do you mean?" |
| 44397 | Who sent for you?" |
| 44397 | Who were they? |
| 44397 | Why are you here?'' |
| 44397 | Why ask?'' |
| 44397 | Why could n''t he see it? |
| 44397 | Why did he stand in the moonlight? |
| 44397 | Why do n''t you use dough?" |
| 44397 | Why was it so deserted? |
| 44397 | Why were n''t there people about-- living beings among those dark swaying trees and bushes like there were in the London parks? |
| 44397 | Why, I asked myself, should these footsteps alarm me? |
| 44397 | Why? |
| 44397 | Why?" |
| 44397 | Wildbridge?" |
| 44397 | Will you go back with me to- night? |
| 44397 | Will you remain here?" |
| 44397 | Will you tell us what to do?" |
| 44397 | Wotherall?" |
| 44397 | Wotherall?" |
| 44397 | Would you like to hear it?" |
| 44397 | Would you like to see them?" |
| 44397 | Yet whence came the gas and how was it administered? |
| 44397 | You can invoke it, ca n''t you, Madame Valenspin?" |
| 44397 | You do like your bit of fun, do n''t yer?" |
| 44397 | You do n''t mind my playing the part of instructor?" |
| 44397 | You say it is new?" |
| 44397 | Your eyes are bad?'' |
| 44397 | he demanded,"and what right have you to fish here?" |
| 44397 | what does it know of the thoughts of all that host of bygones-- of their terrible anxieties, their loves, their passions? |
| 39279 | And how did you write your name on this piece of paper? |
| 39279 | And you? |
| 39279 | Are you happy? |
| 39279 | Art thou there, spirit? |
| 39279 | Bound? |
| 39279 | But we shall perhaps have raps, at any rate? |
| 39279 | But where is he? |
| 39279 | Can we not then keep the golden mean between negation, which denies all, and credulity, which accepts all? 39279 Can you get a reply to a question I am going to ask you?" |
| 39279 | Can you see to read this newspaper? |
| 39279 | Did you hear? |
| 39279 | Does it wish to communicate? |
| 39279 | Faith? 39279 For what purpose?" |
| 39279 | From what point did your balloon start? |
| 39279 | Have you something to say to us? |
| 39279 | How many numbers are there on the page that I have been looking at? |
| 39279 | How shall we find it? |
| 39279 | How should I dare,said she,"to enter your chamber during the night?" |
| 39279 | I? 39279 If there is a hand there,"says M. Flammarion,"could it perhaps grasp an object?" |
| 39279 | If you could take me in the evening--"But, madame, it is impossible--"Why? 39279 In a spontaneous somnambulistic state?" |
| 39279 | In her normal state? |
| 39279 | In what book? |
| 39279 | In what country? |
| 39279 | In what epoch did you live? |
| 39279 | In what month did the event take place? |
| 39279 | In what year did you die? |
| 39279 | Is he willing to give his name? |
| 39279 | Is it really you, Krishna? |
| 39279 | Is there a single known example of movement produced without a force acting from the outside? 39279 Is there a spirit there?" |
| 39279 | Is there a spirit there? |
| 39279 | Of what color? |
| 39279 | Oh,cries the king, in great surprise,"why do you alone confront me without bending the knee?" |
| 39279 | On what shelf? |
| 39279 | Sire,said the unknown,"must I be frank? |
| 39279 | Stitched? |
| 39279 | The aeronaut? |
| 39279 | Then it is a materialization? |
| 39279 | Then the volume is bound in boards? |
| 39279 | Was it the chambermaid? |
| 39279 | Was it the medium herself? |
| 39279 | Was she in the trance state? |
| 39279 | What do you mean by that? |
| 39279 | What month? |
| 39279 | What were you hunting for in our sleeping- room? |
| 39279 | Where did you fall? |
| 39279 | Where did you know me? |
| 39279 | Where? |
| 39279 | Who are you? |
| 39279 | Why do you take my hand? |
| 39279 | Will you please tell me why? |
| 39279 | [ 46]Oh, what is he going to say to us?" |
| 39279 | _ Astronomia._"Of what date? |
| 39279 | ''Can you tell me,''I asked him,''why the satellites of Uranus make their revolution from east to west and not from west to east?'' |
| 39279 | --"Did you see?" |
| 39279 | --"To never make use of any remedies except those of the learned faculty of medicine, even should the patient burst and die of his disease?" |
| 39279 | A moment after, returning in thought to our last séance, she says,"Were you completely satisfied?" |
| 39279 | And how about last wills and testaments stolen away, and the last will of the dead ignored and their intentions purposely misinterpreted? |
| 39279 | And how? |
| 39279 | And if it did, might it not amuse itself thus? |
| 39279 | And in a hundred thousand years? |
| 39279 | And might this mirror also not receive and reproduce impressions, or influence, from a soul at a distance? |
| 39279 | And those inverted dictations? |
| 39279 | And was not the little centre- table, in its climbings acting under the physical and pyschical influences of the medium? |
| 39279 | And( to take a simple instance), without departing from our common and normal condition of life, how is it that we raise our arm? |
| 39279 | And, in that case, shall I get what I have been promised?" |
| 39279 | And, in truth, why should not his mind as well as his fluidic force be haled out of his body and be exhausted in external work? |
| 39279 | And, likewise, in the experience which Wallace has just cited, were not the dictated names latent in the brain of the questioner? |
| 39279 | And, when the sombre curtains of night are let fall from the sky, can you tell whether you will see the dawn of another morn?" |
| 39279 | Another person asked,"What is faith?" |
| 39279 | Are they actual apparitions of the dead? |
| 39279 | As to beings different from ourselves,--what may their nature be? |
| 39279 | At the foot of the staircase she says,"What did M. Richet say to you? |
| 39279 | At this moment the nurse entered and innocently asked,"Did you ring, sir?" |
| 39279 | But do we understand any better how a spirit can have hands? |
| 39279 | But how can she do this when she is all the while seated tranquilly in her chair? |
| 39279 | But how could a being without acoustic nerve and without a tympanum hear? |
| 39279 | But how could the will, conscious or unconscious, lift a piece of furniture of that weight? |
| 39279 | But how? |
| 39279 | But if the mind of the medium may liberate itself and appear in an extra- normal state, why might it not be this mind which acts? |
| 39279 | But is it sufficient to explain all the observed phenomena? |
| 39279 | But the others, the unconscious souls, are they more advanced the day after death than the day before? |
| 39279 | But what is it that takes place within them? |
| 39279 | But what is matter? |
| 39279 | But what is the essential nature of gravitation? |
| 39279 | But why so many oddities and incoherences? |
| 39279 | But why so many puzzling incoherences and solecisms? |
| 39279 | But why? |
| 39279 | But, as it stands, it is necessary to stretch it considerably to make it explain the rappings( for who raps? |
| 39279 | Can the observations be confirmed and justified by assuming the mind of the living merely as the active agents? |
| 39279 | Can we explain the observed phenomena, or at least any portion of it? |
| 39279 | Can we not possess at once the humility which becomes the weak and the dignity which becomes the strong? |
| 39279 | Collective hallucination? |
| 39279 | Could not Eusapia''s departure be put off? |
| 39279 | Could you give us a proof of identity to show us that you are really the daughter of Victor Hugo, the wife of Charles Vacquerie? |
| 39279 | D----?" |
| 39279 | Did the beard really exist, or was it only a case of tactual and visual sensations? |
| 39279 | Did this boy( he says)_ will_ what took place, as the theory of M. de Gasparin would require us to admit? |
| 39279 | Do latent faculties of the human organism suffice to explain these intentional actions? |
| 39279 | Do they belong to beings like ourselves? |
| 39279 | Do we not find in the different ancient literatures, demons, angels, gnomes, goblins, sprites, spectres, elementals, etc? |
| 39279 | Do we not have several distinct personalities in our dreams? |
| 39279 | Do you not agree that the same executive power can give to the fluid the directions it gives to the muscles? |
| 39279 | Do you remember the place where you died?" |
| 39279 | Do you remember the year of your death?" |
| 39279 | Does a poet always write verses of equal worth? |
| 39279 | Does the will act directly upon the nerves? |
| 39279 | Does this characteristic defect prove that hysteria does not exist? |
| 39279 | Does this fact prove that the soul of the father of the experimenter actually performed the act with his hand? |
| 39279 | Does this preparation consist in a modification that takes place in the operator, or in the inert body on which he acts, or in both? |
| 39279 | Does this remarkable fact prove with certainty the action of a spirit other than that of the medium? |
| 39279 | E----?" |
| 39279 | Eusapia cries,"What is this that is passing over me?" |
| 39279 | For in what does the attraction of the earth consist? |
| 39279 | Has my memory played me false?" |
| 39279 | Has space only three dimensions? |
| 39279 | Have the writing mediums given any more convincing proofs of it than these? |
| 39279 | Have you nothing more refined than this to say to us?" |
| 39279 | How can this double, this fluidic body have the consistency of flesh and of muscles? |
| 39279 | How can this thing be? |
| 39279 | How can we help admitting, after the reading of this new official report, the following things? |
| 39279 | How could it make a good man out of a bad one? |
| 39279 | How could it make a shining light out of an intellectual nobody? |
| 39279 | How does it act? |
| 39279 | How explain this tangle of contradictions? |
| 39279 | How is it that a particle of iron grips so firmly to the loadstone when brought near it? |
| 39279 | How is it that a stick of sealing- wax or a lamp- chimney, when rubbed, attracts bits of paper or elder pith? |
| 39279 | How is it that the thunderbolt strips the clothes from a man or a woman with its characteristic nonchalance? |
| 39279 | How many legs and arms has she? |
| 39279 | How many times do apparitions, or manifestations occur? |
| 39279 | How old were you when you died?" |
| 39279 | How shall we name the mystery? |
| 39279 | How then can it enter into relation with our senses? |
| 39279 | How? |
| 39279 | I repeat it again, the muscles have not changed; then why this sudden incapacity? |
| 39279 | I said aloud:"Am I to show how the alarm is operated?" |
| 39279 | I said to the table, which had been put in movement by the little manoeuvre ordinarily used,"Does a spirit desire to communicate?" |
| 39279 | I then ask the following questions:"Is it you, John, who came into our sleeping chamber last night?" |
| 39279 | I therefore said to this intelligence,"Can you see the contents of this room?" |
| 39279 | If they could dynamically appear, would they not act somewhat in this way? |
| 39279 | If this were so, why did not muscular action lift the free leg as well as those fastened tight to the table? |
| 39279 | If we admit the survival of individual souls, what becomes of these souls? |
| 39279 | In fine what are we all seeking? |
| 39279 | In five hundred years, in a thousand years, in two thousand years, what will these sciences of ours be? |
| 39279 | In making my request, had I overstepped the limits of its powers? |
| 39279 | In other words, will the_ animistic_ hypothesis suffice to solve the problem and to do away with the_ Spiritualistic_ hypothesis? |
| 39279 | Is a man of genius always a man of genius? |
| 39279 | Is it a doubling of her personality? |
| 39279 | Is it a melange or combination of fluids? |
| 39279 | Is it an auto- suggestion of hers or of the dynamic ensemble of the experimenters that creates a special force? |
| 39279 | Is it an unheard- of thing that we transmit movement to matter that is outside of ourselves? |
| 39279 | Is it another kind of invisible beings? |
| 39279 | Is it not due to an intuitive perception of the presence of these invisible personages, or forces, against which they are helpless? |
| 39279 | Is it not the same, moreover, in assemblies, large or small, in conferences, in salons, etc.? |
| 39279 | Is it sufficient to entirely satisfy us? |
| 39279 | Is it the condensation of a psychic_ milieu_ in the midst of which we live? |
| 39279 | Is it the intelligence of the medium, of any of the other persons in the room, or is it an exterior intelligence? |
| 39279 | Is it the medium who herself acts, in an unconscious manner, by means of an invisible force emanating from her? |
| 39279 | Is it within us or outside of us? |
| 39279 | Is it worth while at the present time to combat such a theory? |
| 39279 | Is the composer of music master of his inspiration? |
| 39279 | Is there not enough of the unknown in these mysterious phenomena? |
| 39279 | Is this a mental transmission? |
| 39279 | Is this thought simply that of the medium, of the chief experimenter, or the resultant of the thoughts of all the sitters united? |
| 39279 | It is a hand, it is fingers, which have just pressed upon me so; but whose? |
| 39279 | Let us call it, if you please,"telekinetsis"; but does that get us any farther along? |
| 39279 | M----?" |
| 39279 | May I hope that the reader will have got a clear idea in his mind of the experiments and observations set forth in the previous pages of this work? |
| 39279 | May it not be possible that, in exerting ourselves, we give rise to a detachment of forces which acts exteriorly to our body? |
| 39279 | Might it not be a_ double_ of the medium, a product of her psychic force? |
| 39279 | Might it not be that the influence of the experimenters seated around the table puts in special movement the molecules of the wood? |
| 39279 | Might not a molecular movement counterbalance the effect of gravity? |
| 39279 | Movement of what? |
| 39279 | Movements without contact._--Question:"Would the table now be moved without contact?" |
| 39279 | Must he then admit an unknown disturbing force? |
| 39279 | Must one have faith? |
| 39279 | Nevertheless--? |
| 39279 | Now are these forces spirits? |
| 39279 | Now in what way is it possible for the contact of a light dress- stuff with the lower extremity of the foot of a table to assist in the levitation? |
| 39279 | Of course, I allowed my arm to remain passive, and here is what I read:"You wish to know what our occupations are? |
| 39279 | Or does there exist, around and about us, an intelligent medium or atmosphere, a kind of spiritual cosmos? |
| 39279 | Or, finally, is it possible that the spirits of the dead may survive, and wander to and fro, and hold communication with us? |
| 39279 | Perhaps our conscious or sub- conscious thoughts spoke in them? |
| 39279 | Persons condemned to death, in consequence of judicial errors, and executed, should they not return to protest their innocence? |
| 39279 | Question--"Can you see the book which I have just been looking at?" |
| 39279 | S----?" |
| 39279 | Some one asked,"Why have you dictated thus?" |
| 39279 | Souls of the dead? |
| 39279 | Still, after all, who can trace the limits of science? |
| 39279 | Still, does that constitute proof of an independent spirit? |
| 39279 | That is the fact: what is the best hypothesis to explain it? |
| 39279 | The cause remaining identically the same, whence comes it that the effect varies to such a degree? |
| 39279 | The question arises, Whence come these noises? |
| 39279 | The question at present resolves itself into this: Does this dynamism belong wholly to the experimenters? |
| 39279 | The question is, Do these facts exist, and do they enter into the category of known physical forces? |
| 39279 | The table dictated as follows:[12]"When the shining sun scatters the stars, know ye, O mortal men, whether ye will see the evening of that day? |
| 39279 | The victims of''93, should they not have returned to disturb the sleep of the conquerors? |
| 39279 | Then why might not other radiations emanate from our hands and from our whole being? |
| 39279 | This hand opens and closes three times, sufficiently long to permit me to say:"Whose hand is this?--yours, Monsieur Mangin?" |
| 39279 | This last request of hers was as follows:"What has become of the soul of my father?" |
| 39279 | W----?" |
| 39279 | Was I going to be the cause of all the well- proved phenomena of which we have had testimony losing the half of their value? |
| 39279 | Was it not an expression of the collective thought of the company? |
| 39279 | Was it not imperative to prove to our opponents that they have not even the pretext of"a scientific impossibility"? |
| 39279 | Was this apparition what it claimed to be? |
| 39279 | We think: what is thought? |
| 39279 | We walk: what is that organic act? |
| 39279 | Were we going to have the inevitable indisposition of the rare tenor, on the day when he was to be heard on the stage? |
| 39279 | What do you think of that? |
| 39279 | What has become of it? |
| 39279 | What have we seen? |
| 39279 | What is it in the bullet that kills? |
| 39279 | What is the absolute action of the soul or mind? |
| 39279 | What is the brain? |
| 39279 | What is the human body? |
| 39279 | What is the intelligent force that directs this fluidic body and makes it act in such or such a way? |
| 39279 | What is the mediator between mind and muscle? |
| 39279 | What is this being? |
| 39279 | What is this environment? |
| 39279 | What is this intelligence? |
| 39279 | What light will the study of these still unexplained forces shed upon the origin of the soul and upon the conditions of its survival? |
| 39279 | What shall be done to remove their noble and pharisaical indolence? |
| 39279 | What sustains the earth in space? |
| 39279 | What was science a hundred years ago, two hundred years, three hundred? |
| 39279 | What were you speaking of?" |
| 39279 | What, then, sustains the knife, annihilates its weight? |
| 39279 | When illusions, auto- suggestions, hallucinations, are eliminated, what remains? |
| 39279 | Where are they? |
| 39279 | Where did the puff of wind come from? |
| 39279 | Whether I have reached absolute conviction as to the existence of one or of several_ spirits_? |
| 39279 | Who is there so bold as to predict whither the scientific study of the new psychology will lead, and what the results will be? |
| 39279 | Who knows whether my friends and I, who laugh at Spiritualism, are not in error, just as hypnotized persons are? |
| 39279 | Who makes them? |
| 39279 | Who of us is always master of his impressions and of his faculties? |
| 39279 | Who or what adjusted this elastic spring? |
| 39279 | Who or what wound up this watch once for all? |
| 39279 | Who will say then, that there are not around us invisible beings? |
| 39279 | Why amplify? |
| 39279 | Why choose a table? |
| 39279 | Why could it not sound the alarm of this watch? |
| 39279 | Why do not children whose death is lamented by their parents ever come to console them? |
| 39279 | Why do our dearest attachments seem to disappear forever? |
| 39279 | Why do we wish to explain these phenomena at all hazards? |
| 39279 | Why does not our involuntary impulse always make the table turn? |
| 39279 | Why does the medium so often try to release her hand? |
| 39279 | Why seek to press on so eagerly and prematurely into regions to which our poor powers can not yet attain? |
| 39279 | Why should death bestow upon them any perfection? |
| 39279 | Why should it make a genius out of an imbecile? |
| 39279 | Why should it turn an ignoramus into a wise man? |
| 39279 | Why should not our"fraud"always procure such a triumph? |
| 39279 | Why should the souls of the dead amuse themselves in this way? |
| 39279 | Why this dark cabinet? |
| 39279 | Why, as a general thing, do we only succeed in effecting that which is mechanically impossible? |
| 39279 | Will you allow one of us to put a hand_ upon_ yours, without touching the table?" |
| 39279 | Would it not be reasonable to suppose that persons put to death in such a way that violence was not suspected would return to accuse the assassins? |
| 39279 | Would there be anything impossible in this? |
| 39279 | X., the medium? |
| 39279 | Yes, in a hundred thousand years, what will human intelligence be? |
| 39279 | Z? |
| 39279 | [ 29] To what cause may we attribute the levitation of the table? |
| 39279 | [ 39] Why was an astronomer chosen to give an account of the experiments at Genoa? |
| 39279 | [ 43] Who of us can at will put himself into such and such a physical condition and such and such a moral state? |
| 39279 | [ 4] Now how are these levitations and movements produced? |
| 39279 | [ 89] What is it that is active in us in telepathic phenomena? |
| 39279 | [ 94] But why are there manifestations the result of the grouping of five or six persons around the table? |
| 39279 | _ Reflection, reflex action?_ That is perhaps the true expression. |
| 39279 | and those in which we are obliged to skip every other letter? |
| 39279 | is not_ doubt_ the most_ certain_ result of mediumistic experiments?) |
| 39279 | or the ability to know, two days in advance, of the death of a person about whom one was not thinking at all? |
| 39279 | why are you not present with us? |

| 40686 | knowest thou that none of these save that last holy one-- whom methinks thou namest too lightly among men-- were baptized? |
| 40686 | no dire punishments? |
| 40686 | or has it simply suffered from a theological curse on the cats said to draw the chariots of the goddesses of Beauty? |
| 40686 | or was it merely demonised because of its uncanny and shaggy appearance? |
| 40686 | they asked,''Have you ever seen him?'' |
| 40686 | what has led thee to depart from the Prince of thy gods? |
| 40686 | what is the sum- total of the worst that lies before thee? |
| 40686 | what, are you going to slaughter this poor woman? |
| 40686 | whence comest, and with what message freighted? |
| 40686 | why not bulls? |
| 40686 | wilt thou go with me? |
| 29412 | And Bernier, our fellow- citizen, what is become of him? |
| 29412 | And have you seen this master? |
| 29412 | And what did she do to give you this power? |
| 29412 | And what do you come here for? |
| 29412 | And whence comes it that you know me? |
| 29412 | Do you know that now you see nothing with the eyes of your body? |
| 29412 | In a dream? |
| 29412 | Now, how can he approve a dissertation false in itself and contrary to himself? 29412 Of what may we not believe the imagination capable, after so strong a proof of its power? |
| 29412 | Well, then, with what eyes do you behold me? |
| 29412 | When is it,he says afterwards,"that the oracles have ceased to reply throughout all Greece, but since the advent of the Saviour on earth? |
| 29412 | Who art thou? 29412 [ 161] And in Ecclesiasticus,"Who will pity the enchanter that has been bitten by the serpent? |
| 29412 | ''I knew it well,''said she;''did I not behold it the day before yesterday?''" |
| 29412 | ( or"What can I do for you?") |
| 29412 | A little while after, he adds,"But what shall we say of that magic they held in such admiration? |
| 29412 | ARE THE VAMPIRES OR REVENANS REALLY DEAD? |
| 29412 | After mass, St. Augustin, preceded by the cross, went to ask this dead man why he went out? |
| 29412 | After such avowals, what can we think of the doctrine of this chief of the innovators? |
| 29412 | After this, must we not own that the Greeks of to- day are not great Greeks, and that there is only ignorance and superstition among them? |
| 29412 | Again, what shall we say of those tacit compacts so often mentioned by the author, and which he supposes to be real? |
| 29412 | And again, how could he satisfy it with a demon, who appeared to him in the form of a girl he loved? |
| 29412 | And had not their accomplices also, whose names must have been declared, as much to fear? |
| 29412 | And how can we reconcile this concurrence with the wisdom, independence, and truth of God? |
| 29412 | And if Samuel appeared to Saul, how could it take place if Samuel had no members? |
| 29412 | And if he had received it, was he not at the same time reconciled to the church? |
| 29412 | And if he was there bodily, how could he render himself invisible? |
| 29412 | And if his excommunication was only regular and minor, would he deserve after his martyrdom to be excluded from the presence of the holy mysteries? |
| 29412 | And if these bodies are merely phantomic, how can they suck the blood of living people? |
| 29412 | And in his treatise on the soul, he exclaims,"What shall we say of magic? |
| 29412 | And what glory to God, what advantage to men, could accrue from these apparitions? |
| 29412 | And why do we not make any use of so wonderful an art in armies? |
| 29412 | And would Jacob have asked him for his blessing had he deemed him a bad angel? |
| 29412 | Another time he saw the same young man, who said to him,"Do you know me?" |
| 29412 | Are the Vampires or Revenans really Dead? |
| 29412 | Are there not still to be found people who are so simple, or who have so little religion, as to buy these trifles very dear? |
| 29412 | Are these equivocal marks of the reality of obsessions? |
| 29412 | Are they not interred? |
| 29412 | As they were conversing in her presence of the singularity of the adventure which here happened at St. Maur,''Why are you so much astonished?'' |
| 29412 | At last they asked what was the name of him who should succeed to the Emperor Valens? |
| 29412 | Besides that, of how many crimes were they not guilty in the use of their spells? |
| 29412 | But are they not rather magicians, who render themselves invisible, and divert themselves in disquieting the living? |
| 29412 | But can anything more strange be thought of than what is said of tacit compacts? |
| 29412 | But how can they come out of their graves without opening the earth, and how re- enter them again without its appearing? |
| 29412 | But if the dead know not what is passing in this world, how can they be troubled about their bodies being interred or not? |
| 29412 | But what can you obtain in favor of heresy from sensible and upright people, to whom God has thus manifested the power of his church? |
| 29412 | But what could it avail the demon to give the treasure to these gentlemen, who did not ask him for it, and scarcely troubled themselves about him? |
| 29412 | But what is the use of so many arguments? |
| 29412 | But why amuse ourselves with fruitless researches? |
| 29412 | By what authority did the demon take away this boy''s life, and then restore it to him? |
| 29412 | CAN A MAN WHO IS REALLY DEAD APPEAR IN HIS OWN BODY? |
| 29412 | CAN THESE INSTANCES BE APPLIED TO THE HUNGARIAN GHOSTS? |
| 29412 | Can a Man really Dead appear in his own Body? |
| 29412 | Can an angel or a demon restore a dead man to life? |
| 29412 | Can it be the spirit of the defunct, which has not yet forsaken them, or some demon, which makes their apparition in a fantastic and borrowed body? |
| 29412 | Can so simple an agent as the soul act upon itself, and reproduce it in some sort by thinking, after it has ceased to think? |
| 29412 | Can the soul when separated from the body re- enter it when it will, and give it new life, were it but for a quarter of an hour? |
| 29412 | Can these Instances be applied to the Hungarian Revenans? |
| 29412 | Can we conceive that God allows them thus to come without reason or necessity and molest their families, and even cause their death? |
| 29412 | Can we not see that such an opinion is making a god of the devil? |
| 29412 | DO THE EXCOMMUNICATED ROT IN THE GROUND? |
| 29412 | Did he do this by his own strength, or by the permission of God? |
| 29412 | Did he not wash away his fault with his blood? |
| 29412 | Did not Simon the magician rise into the air by means of the devil? |
| 29412 | Did not St. Paul impose silence on the Pythoness of the city of Philippi in Macedonia? |
| 29412 | Did not the first- mentioned perform many wonders before Pharaoh? |
| 29412 | Do the Excommunicated rot in the Earth? |
| 29412 | Do they not prevent people from inhabiting certain houses, under pretence of their being haunted? |
| 29412 | Do they take them and leave them at will, as we lay aside a habit or a mask? |
| 29412 | Do we not know with how many errors it has been infatuated in all ages, and which, though shared in common, were not the less mistakes? |
| 29412 | Do we put to death hypochondriacs, maniacs, or those who imagine themselves ill? |
| 29412 | Do you laugh at all that is told of dreams, magical operations, miracles, sorcerers, ghosts, and Thessalian wonders? |
| 29412 | Do you see the Prince of Condè dead in that hedge?'' |
| 29412 | Does any one imagine that such things can be believed without offending God, and without showing a very injurious mistrust of his almighty power? |
| 29412 | Does not St. Paul complain of the_ angel of Satan_ who buffeted him? |
| 29412 | Does not St. Peter[657] tell us that"the devil prowls about us like a roaring lion, always ready to devour us?" |
| 29412 | Does not the apostle tell us that the angel of darkness transforms himself into an angel of light? |
| 29412 | For will it be said that these maledictions and inflictions were the effect of the inspiration of the good Spirit, or the work of good angels? |
| 29412 | For, does it not happen that wood of different kinds, and fish bones, produce some light when their heat is excited by putrefaction? |
| 29412 | HAS THE DEMON POWER TO CAUSE ANY ONE TO DIE AND THEN TO RESTORE THE DEAD TO LIFE? |
| 29412 | Had he received the sacraments of the Church? |
| 29412 | Has the Demon power to kill, and then to restore to Life? |
| 29412 | Has the devil in this respect a greater power than an angel and a disembodied soul? |
| 29412 | Have we ever seen lethargies, or swoons, or syncopes last whole years together? |
| 29412 | Have we not again calendars in which are marked the lucky and unlucky days, as has been done during a time, under the name of Egyptians? |
| 29412 | He answered,--"And who has taught you that secret?" |
| 29412 | How can he be absolved without asking for absolution, or its appearing that he hath requested it? |
| 29412 | How can it serve the demon to maintain this, and destroy the general opinion of nations on all these things? |
| 29412 | How can people be absolved who died in mortal sin, and without doing penance? |
| 29412 | How can you absolve him from excommunication before he has received absolution from sin? |
| 29412 | How can you absolve the dead? |
| 29412 | How can you convince a whole people of error? |
| 29412 | How could St. Maur appear to him in his Benedictine habit, having the wizard on his left hand? |
| 29412 | How could he introduce himself into young M. de la Richardière''s chamber without either opening or forcing the door? |
| 29412 | How could he render himself visible to him alone, whilst none other beheld him? |
| 29412 | How could he who appeared to the tailor Bauh imprint his hand on the board which he presented to him? |
| 29412 | How could this wretched shepherd cast the spell without touching the person? |
| 29412 | How did Apollonius of Tyana persuade the Ephesians to kill a man, who really was only a dog? |
| 29412 | How did he know that this dog, or this man, was the cause of the pestilence which afflicted Ephesus? |
| 29412 | How do the saints hear our prayers? |
| 29412 | How do they drag them? |
| 29412 | How do they speak? |
| 29412 | How is this done? |
| 29412 | How is this resurrection accomplished? |
| 29412 | How many enterprises, praiseworthy in appearance, has he not inspired, in order to draw the faithful into his snare? |
| 29412 | How many false miracles has he not wrought? |
| 29412 | How many holy actions has he not counseled? |
| 29412 | How many instances have we not seen of people who expired with fright in a moment? |
| 29412 | How many times has he foretold future events? |
| 29412 | How was it that the soldier mentioned by Æneas Sylvius did not recognize his wife, whom he pierced with his sword, and whose ears he cut off? |
| 29412 | If in all there is only falsehood and illusion, what does he gain by undeceiving people? |
| 29412 | If it is not God who drags them from their graves, is it an angel? |
| 29412 | If it is so, why do they return to their graves? |
| 29412 | If magicians possessed the secret of thus occasioning the death of any one they pleased, where is the prince, prelate, or lord who would be safe? |
| 29412 | If people insist on these resurrections being real ones, did we ever see dead persons resuscitate themselves, and by their own power? |
| 29412 | If the angels even have not a certain kind of body?--for if they are incorporeal, how can they be counted? |
| 29412 | If the circumstance is certain, as it appears, who shall explain the manner in which all passed or took place? |
| 29412 | If these two men were only spectres, having neither flesh nor bones, how could one of them imprint a black color on the hand of this widow? |
| 29412 | If they are not resuscitated by themselves, is it by the power of God that they have left their graves? |
| 29412 | If they are not united to them, how can they move them, and cause them to act, walk, speak, reason, and eat? |
| 29412 | If they are reprobate and condemned, what have they to do on this earth? |
| 29412 | If they are united to them, then they form but one individual; and how can they separate themselves from them, after being united to them? |
| 29412 | If they could thus roast them slowly to death, why not kill them at once, by throwing the waxen image in the fire? |
| 29412 | If they dared not stay in the church during the mass, when were they? |
| 29412 | If they were evil genii, why did they ask for masses and order restitution? |
| 29412 | Is all that accomplished by the natural power of these spirits? |
| 29412 | Is it an angel, is it a demon who reanimates it? |
| 29412 | Is it by the order, or by the permission of God that he resuscitates? |
| 29412 | Is it for a long time, like that of the persons who were restored to life by Jesus Christ? |
| 29412 | Is it not certain that the first step taken by those who had recourse to magic was to renounce God and Jesus Christ, and to invoke the demon? |
| 29412 | Is it not since mankind began to enjoy the divine presence of the Word? |
| 29412 | Is it sepulture? |
| 29412 | Is it surprising that the bedstead should be seen to move, especially when the floor of the room is waxed and rubbed? |
| 29412 | Is it the Almighty, to satisfy the revenge of an insignificant woman, or the jealousy of lovers of either sex? |
| 29412 | Is it to show forth the works of God in these vampires? |
| 29412 | Is not that, as it appears to some, denying and affirming at the same time the same thing under different names? |
| 29412 | Is this resurrection voluntary on his part, and by his own choice? |
| 29412 | It is by the strength of the_ revenant_, by the return of his soul into his body? |
| 29412 | It is the devil, who sports with the simplicity of men? |
| 29412 | Lord, why hast thou sent me back to this gloomy abode?" |
| 29412 | M. Viardin having asked him in Latin,"Ubi censebaris quandò mane oriebaris?" |
| 29412 | M. de Saumaise told him it meant,"Save yourself; do you not perceive the death with which you are threatened?" |
| 29412 | Might it not be advanced that this light has appeared because the eye of the count was internally affected, or because it was so externally? |
| 29412 | Must we, on this account, consider these histories as problematical? |
| 29412 | Nevertheless, it may be asked, How these bodies came out? |
| 29412 | Of what may we not believe the imagination capable after so strong a proof of its power? |
| 29412 | Or was it the natural effect of Divine love, or fervor of devotion in these persons? |
| 29412 | Origen adds, What could Providence have designed in performing for this Proconnesian the miracles we have just mentioned? |
| 29412 | Ought he not rather to combat this writing, and show its weakness, falsehood, and dangerous tendency? |
| 29412 | Peter added,"Could you tell me any news of Alphonso, king of Arragon, who died a few years ago?" |
| 29412 | St. Augustine inquires afterwards if the dead have any knowledge of what is passing in this world? |
| 29412 | The Jews sometimes went so far as to insult them in their dwellings, and even to say to them,[709]_ Ubi est verbum Domini? |
| 29412 | The demon added,"Is it not enough that I show thee that I understand what thou sayest?" |
| 29412 | The master of the house, and his domestics, the boldest amongst them, at last asked him what he wished for, and in what they could help him? |
| 29412 | The saint asked him, where was the sepulchre of the priest who had pronounced against him the sentence of excommunication? |
| 29412 | The saint laughed and said to him,"Would it not be better to give the value of your horses to the poor rather than employ them in such exercises?" |
| 29412 | The spectre said to him,"Where are you going?" |
| 29412 | The system of M. Law, bank notes, the rage of the Rue Quinquampoix, what movements did they not cause in the kingdom? |
| 29412 | The young man added,"Was it in a dream, or awake, that you saw all that?" |
| 29412 | The young man then asked,"Where is your body now?" |
| 29412 | Then they wished to know if alms should be given in his name? |
| 29412 | They asked him if he required any masses to be said? |
| 29412 | They asked why he infested that house rather than another? |
| 29412 | This is certainly not the case; but if it were so, why should witches have less power than magicians? |
| 29412 | Thus we read in Ecclesiasticus--"Who will pity the enchanter that is bitten by the serpent?" |
| 29412 | To what can these things be attributed, if not to an elf? |
| 29412 | To what persecutions were not himself and Baruch his disciple exposed for having spoken in the name of the Lord? |
| 29412 | UNDER WHAT FORM HAVE GOOD ANGELS APPEARED? |
| 29412 | Under what form have Good Angels appeared? |
| 29412 | Was her resurrection effected by her own strength and will, or was it a demon who restored her to life? |
| 29412 | Was it a demon who animated the body of the boy, or did his soul re- enter his body by the permission of God? |
| 29412 | Was it by the ministration of angels, or by the artifice of the seducing spirit, who wished to inspire her with sentiments of vanity and pride? |
| 29412 | Was it his soul which moved his body, or a demon which made use of this corpse to disturb and frighten the living? |
| 29412 | Was it not generally believed in former times, that there were no antipodes? |
| 29412 | Was it their soul which appeared to me, or was it some other spirit which assumed their form?" |
| 29412 | Was this young girl really dead, or only sleeping? |
| 29412 | We read, in the author I am combating,"What shall we say of the fairies, a prodigy so notorious and so common?" |
| 29412 | Were they the souls of these two pagans, or two demons who assumed their form? |
| 29412 | Were they whole, or in a state of decay? |
| 29412 | What advantage does the devil derive from making idiots believe these things, or maintaining them in such an error? |
| 29412 | What becomes, in particular, of all the stories of the holy solitaries, of St. Anthony, St. Hilarion,& c.? |
| 29412 | What benefit could mankind derive from them? |
| 29412 | What cures has he not operated? |
| 29412 | What do they want? |
| 29412 | What does it matter, in fact, that they made false boastings, and that their attempts were useless? |
| 29412 | What glory does the Divinity derive from them? |
| 29412 | What has not been said for and against the divining- rod of Jacques Aimar? |
| 29412 | What interest could the demon have in not permitting these bodies to come under the power of the Christians? |
| 29412 | What is the aim of Lucian, in his Dialogue entitled"Philopseudis,"but to turn into ridicule the magic art? |
| 29412 | What is the object of these resurrections? |
| 29412 | What proof is there that God has anything to do with it? |
| 29412 | What reason is given for this? |
| 29412 | What stronger proof of the falsity of this art can we have than to see that Nero renounced it?" |
| 29412 | What will become of the apparitions of Onias to Judas Maccabeus, and of the devil to Jesus Christ himself, after his fast of forty days? |
| 29412 | What will become of the apparitions of angels, so well noted in the Old and New Testaments? |
| 29412 | What would you have me do for you?" |
| 29412 | When did they begin to despise the magic art? |
| 29412 | Whence does it happen that they neither come back nor infest the place any more when they are burned or impaled? |
| 29412 | Where, also, did they go? |
| 29412 | Who are these witnesses? |
| 29412 | Who can have given such power to the devil? |
| 29412 | Who can not perceive in these words the surest marks of prepossession and fear? |
| 29412 | Who will believe in our days that Ezzelin was the son of a will- o''-the- wisp? |
| 29412 | Why did he not deny all these facts? |
| 29412 | Why do these excommunicated persons return to their tombs after mass? |
| 29412 | Why do they attach themselves to certain spots, and certain persons, rather than to others? |
| 29412 | Why do they haunt and fatigue persons who ought to be dear to them, and who have done nothing to offend them? |
| 29412 | Why do they make themselves perceptible only during a certain time, and that sometimes a short space? |
| 29412 | Why is it so little sought after by princes and their ministers? |
| 29412 | Why then may not the heat excited in this confined spirit produce some light? |
| 29412 | Why wish to explain the whole book of Job literally, and as a true history, since its beginning is only a fiction? |
| 29412 | Will it be God, will it be itself? |
| 29412 | Will it be said that this is only the effect of imagination, prepossession, or the trickery of a clever charlatan? |
| 29412 | Will this thinking matter think on always, or only at times; and when it has ceased to think, who will make it think anew? |
| 29412 | Without this fruitful source, what becomes of the most ingenious fictions of Homer? |
| 29412 | Would it be again the imagination of the living and their prejudices which reassure them after these executions? |
| 29412 | [ 139] Will it be said that there was any collusion between St. Paul and the Pythoness? |
| 29412 | [ 160] Job, speaking of the leviathan, which we believe to be the crocodile, says,"Shall the enchanter destroy it? |
| 29412 | [ 352]"Quid se præcipitat de rarissimis aut inexpertis quasi definitam ferre sententiam, cum quotidiana et continua non solvat?" |
| 29412 | [ 652] Did those whom he gave up to Satan for their crimes,[653] suffer nothing bodily? |

| 29412 | a man or a God? |
| 29412 | and also is it not what he proposed to himself in the other, entitled"The Ass,"whence Apuleius derived his"Golden Ass?" |
| 29412 | and consequently, how can we know whether it ought to be punished leniently or rigorously? |
| 29412 | and has not joy itself sometimes produced an equally fatal effect? |
| 29412 | and if there is any truth in them, why decry his own work, and take away the credit of his subordinates and his own operations? |
| 29412 | and on what foundation can it be asserted that they are less criminal? |
| 29412 | and why comest thou here?" |
| 29412 | and why do we ask them for their intercession? |
| 29412 | how could any one make it without renouncing common sense? |
| 29412 | is it a demon? |
| 29412 | is it their own spirit? |
| 29412 | naked, or clad in their own dress, or in the linen and bandages which had enveloped them in the tomb? |
| 29412 | or that of persons resuscitated by the Prophets and Apostles? |
| 29412 | or, Do you hear me? |
| 29412 | that according to whether the sacred fowls had eaten or not, it was permitted or forbidden to fight? |
| 29412 | that some of them die of it instantaneously, and others a short time afterwards? |
| 29412 | that the statues of the gods had spoken or changed their place? |
| 29412 | when will God give us some rain?" |
| 29412 | whence do I come? |
| 29412 | why do they not remain amongst the living? |
| 29412 | why do they suck the blood of their relations? |
| 29412 | why do you not rather make use of the sabres of the Turks? |
| 29412 | wilt thou never be satisfied? |

| 45041 | How is it now,he goes on to ask,"that this stamp, impression, image, or painting, in us, a mere mode of the mind, can recall the absent object?" |
| 45041 | : the_ ideal_ element; the conception, not of the actual and the real, as in the case of the other faculties, but of the purely ideal? |
| 45041 | A matter of_ intellect_, or of_ feeling_; a_ judgment_, or an_ emotion_? |
| 45041 | ARE MOTIVES THE CAUSE, AND VOLITIONS THE EFFECT? |
| 45041 | Am I shut up to the actual inclinations and choices of any given hour or moment? |
| 45041 | Am I under the stern rule of inevitable necessity and fate to do as I do, to choose as I choose, to be inclined as I am inclined? |
| 45041 | And if sense is not reliable in the first instance, why rely upon it in the second, to prove that it is not reliable? |
| 45041 | And then, again, which is really the agreeable, and which is truly the right? |
| 45041 | And what else can you mean by strongest motive? |
| 45041 | Are the minds of all observers equally susceptible of impression from the beautiful? |
| 45041 | Are the volitions of Deity, then,_ uncaused_? |
| 45041 | Are there not relations of things to each other, and so relations of thought, which do not fall under any of the categories now named? |
| 45041 | Are these correct inductions? |
| 45041 | Are they caused or uncaused? |
| 45041 | Are they the same thing, and if not, wherein do they differ? |
| 45041 | Are they, in that case,_ supernatural_ events? |
| 45041 | Are we to withhold or yield our assent? |
| 45041 | Are we, in all cases to follow its decisions? |
| 45041 | Augustine, Andrè, and others, ancient and modern, seek the hidden principle of beauty in the elements of_ order and proportion_? |
| 45041 | But does not law_ presuppose_ the idea of right and wrong? |
| 45041 | But does the word_ power_ properly include both? |
| 45041 | But how are these things to be reconciled-- man''s entire freedom, God''s entire control and government of him? |
| 45041 | But how shall this strength of will, so desirable, so essential to true greatness and nobleness of character, be attained? |
| 45041 | But how, it may occur to some one to ask, happens such a habit to be formed in the first place? |
| 45041 | But in what sense does the mind retain anything which has once occupied its thoughts? |
| 45041 | But is it certain, or it is probable, that they are_ mere_ coincidences? |
| 45041 | But is there a middle ground possible or conceivable? |
| 45041 | But is this all he does? |
| 45041 | But what could induce such a being to_ will_ or to_ act_? |
| 45041 | But what did he mean by_ moral necessity_? |
| 45041 | But what have they in common? |
| 45041 | But whence comes, in the first instance, the concrete idea? |
| 45041 | But why should such associations operate more powerfully upon the miser, than upon any other person? |
| 45041 | Can any one show that this is impossible? |
| 45041 | Can any thing be more absurd? |
| 45041 | Do they not suggest and express to us ideas of grace, elegance, delicacy, and the like? |
| 45041 | Do we first understand, and then will; or does something else intervene between the intellectual perception and the volition? |
| 45041 | Do we not find ourselves attracted by, and, in a sort, in sympathy with these forms, as thus significant and expressive? |
| 45041 | Does it any longer exist? |
| 45041 | Does it belong to the rational or sensitive part of our nature: to the domain of intellect, or of feeling, or both? |
| 45041 | Does it so imply and involve the exercise of reason, that it is not to be found except in connection with, and as the result of, that principle? |
| 45041 | Does it, in a word, denote the_ intellectual_ rather than the_ emotional_ element of the process? |
| 45041 | Does it, like the loss of voluntary power over the physical frame, result from the inactivity of the nervous apparatus? |
| 45041 | Does not the very fact of a volition imply that we have already in mind the thing willed and wished for? |
| 45041 | Does the fact that I am inclined, and strongly so, to a given choice, prevent me from putting forth that choice in the shape of executive volition? |
| 45041 | Does the_ prevalent_ motive actually_ prevail_? |
| 45041 | Does this ever occur? |
| 45041 | Does vision alone give the idea that what we see is numerically distinct from ourselves, and that it occupies this or that particular locality? |
| 45041 | Extension in what, motion in what? |
| 45041 | Had we no other means of information, would sight alone give us this? |
| 45041 | Has God made nothing, in so doing? |
| 45041 | Has he conceived nothing,_ created_ nothing? |
| 45041 | Has he then created nothing, conceived nothing? |
| 45041 | Has it not a character_ sui generis_? |
| 45041 | Has such an emotion, strictly speaking, any moral character? |
| 45041 | Have I any power to change those affections and inclinations; or, they remaining as they are, have I any power to go contrary to them? |
| 45041 | Have I then the power of attending to two things at once? |
| 45041 | Have we any such power? |
| 45041 | How are these conceptions formed? |
| 45041 | How are we to prove that sense deceives us, except by arguments drawn from sense? |
| 45041 | How can he do these things without seeing? |
| 45041 | How come we by these notions? |
| 45041 | How comes this word--_taste_--to be used, rather than any other, to denote the idea and power now under consideration? |
| 45041 | How do I know that it exists? |
| 45041 | How do I know_ now_ that the rose exists? |
| 45041 | How do these emotions differ-- in degree merely-- or in nature? |
| 45041 | How do we know that which is here affirmed? |
| 45041 | How do we know, in fact, that there_ is_ any such external reality? |
| 45041 | How else could we will to recall it? |
| 45041 | How far are we responsible for its exercise? |
| 45041 | How far is it to be trusted in its perceptions and decisions? |
| 45041 | How happens the poor insect, just emerging from the egg, to find in himself all requisite appliances and instruments for capturing his prey? |
| 45041 | How is it that events of former years come back to mind, with all the freshness and reality of passing scenes? |
| 45041 | How is it that she performs actions requiring often a high degree of intelligence, and yet without apparent consciousness? |
| 45041 | How is it that the somnambulist rises and moves about in a state of apparently sound sleep? |
| 45041 | How is it, why is it, that we pronounce an act right or wrong, when once fairly apprehended? |
| 45041 | How know we our senses to be reliable? |
| 45041 | How so? |
| 45041 | How, then, can it originate that on which itself depends, and which it presupposes? |
| 45041 | How, then, is it known, that mind can not act without first acting in order to act? |
| 45041 | I have forgotten, for instance, the name of a person: I seek to recall it; to recall what? |
| 45041 | I think, I_ feel_, I will; is not that the order of the mental processes? |
| 45041 | IS THE WILL ALWAYS AS THE GREATEST APPARENT GOOD? |
| 45041 | IS THE WILL DETERMINED BY THE STRONGEST MOTIVE? |
| 45041 | If all coin were counterfeit, how could we detect a counterfeit coin? |
| 45041 | If caused, then by what? |
| 45041 | If not free, then how am I responsible? |
| 45041 | If not material, how can it represent matter, and how can the mind know that it does represent correctly the external object? |
| 45041 | If not, if limits there are to this method of reasoning, what are they? |
| 45041 | If not, then why may it not_ will_ without first_ willing_ to will? |
| 45041 | If the former, then what is it in the object that constitutes its beauty? |
| 45041 | If the latter, are they the result of education, or of legal restraint? |
| 45041 | If the latter, how could a law which was neither just nor unjust, have suggested to the subjects of it any such ideas? |
| 45041 | If the latter, then are we_ correct_ in attributing any such quality to the object? |
| 45041 | If the perception of right and wrong is intuitive, how happens this diversity? |
| 45041 | If the representative image be itself material, how can the mind take cognizance of it? |
| 45041 | If there were no intelligent, observing mind, to behold and feel that beauty, would the object still be beautiful, even as now? |
| 45041 | If this may happen in some cases, why not in others, or in all? |
| 45041 | Indeed what is all science but the work of mind? |
| 45041 | Is all knowledge only some form of judgment? |
| 45041 | Is beauty something objective, or merely subjective and emotional? |
| 45041 | Is it a difference in_ kind_, or only in_ degree_? |
| 45041 | Is it a mere idea, a mere conception of the mind, or has it reality? |
| 45041 | Is it also more beautiful? |
| 45041 | Is it an act which the mind puts forth when it will, and withholds when it will? |
| 45041 | Is it by vision that we learn primarily the distance of objects and their locality? |
| 45041 | Is it certain that our experience, though it be uniform and unvaried, is the universal experience? |
| 45041 | Is it correct procedure? |
| 45041 | Is it matter of expediency and calculation, of policy and necessity, or of native instinct and implanted constitutional desire? |
| 45041 | Is it more improbable than that the cases recorded are mere chance coincidences? |
| 45041 | Is it not built on that idea as its basis? |
| 45041 | Is it not equally mysterious that ideas which have formerly coëxisted should recall each other? |
| 45041 | Is it not reasonable to suppose that the same may be true of man? |
| 45041 | Is it owing to the pains taken to define the terms employed, and the strict adherence to those definitions? |
| 45041 | Is it the chief thing? |
| 45041 | Is it, in such a sense, peculiar to a rational and intelligent nature? |
| 45041 | Is it, then, a safe guide? |
| 45041 | Is it_ determined_ at all by_ any_ motive or by any thing? |
| 45041 | Is it_ intuitive_? |
| 45041 | Is not this state, or affection of the mind, as Dr. Brown calls it, quite a distinct thing from other mental states and affections? |
| 45041 | Is taste a matter of feeling, or is it an intellectual discernment, or is it both? |
| 45041 | Is the conclusion at which I thus arrive, involved in the premiss with which I start? |
| 45041 | Is the novel the beautiful? |
| 45041 | Is the will_ determined_ by that motive which prevails? |
| 45041 | Is there in such a case a special act of volition and attention preceding each movement of the fingers as they glide over the keys? |
| 45041 | Is this so? |
| 45041 | Is this the case? |
| 45041 | Is this the soul and spirit of his divine art? |
| 45041 | Is, then, the human will free, in the sense now defined? |
| 45041 | It is only a conception now, but who shall estimate the worth of that simple power of conception? |
| 45041 | It reasons, judges, conceives, imagines; must it first reason, judge, etc.,_ in order_ to reason, and judge, and conceive, and imagine? |
| 45041 | Not, I suspect, from any special change which the brain undergoes, for why should such changes affect_ this_ faculty more than any other? |
| 45041 | Now, in what consists that power? |
| 45041 | Of what use is a memory or a judgment, that sometimes errs? |
| 45041 | Of what use to the beholder is the ruddy glow and flash of sunrise on the Alpine summits as seen from the Rhigi or Mount Blanc? |
| 45041 | Of what use, in fact, is beauty in any case, other than as it may be the means of refining the taste, and elevating the mind? |
| 45041 | Of what use, we reply, is_ any_ mental faculty, that is not absolutely and universally correct? |
| 45041 | Or is it a mere passive susceptibility of the mind to be impressed in this particular way? |
| 45041 | Or, who ever supposed that, of two motives, it was not the stronger but the weaker one that in a given case prevailed? |
| 45041 | Ought we then to expect absolute uniformity of effect? |
| 45041 | Shall we choose the agreeable? |
| 45041 | Shall we choose the right? |
| 45041 | Shall we conclude, because of this diversity, that these several faculties are not parts of our nature? |
| 45041 | Shall we follow a guide thus liable to err? |
| 45041 | Shall we suppose then so many thousand acts of attention and volition in a minute? |
| 45041 | The mind thinks; must it first think, in order to think? |
| 45041 | The question arose, for the instant, Shall I do it? |
| 45041 | The question at once arises, is it right? |
| 45041 | The question is, whether this alone would, in the first instance, give us such cognitions? |
| 45041 | The question no longer is, Whence comes that swift ship, and whither goes it, but, What am I, and whither going; what my history, and my destiny? |
| 45041 | The question still remains, however, in which of the several ways indicated, does this result take place? |
| 45041 | The simple question is, Am I at liberty to follow it? |
| 45041 | The very occurrence of a thing to be done, a possible thing, and of a motive for doing it, raises, of itself, the question, Shall it be done? |
| 45041 | Under what circumstances is a given conception awakened in the mind by some preceding conception or perception? |
| 45041 | Unquestionably he does derive immense advantages from it; but is that the reason he desires it? |
| 45041 | Was it any thing more? |
| 45041 | Was it merely an accidental thing-- a matter of chance-- that the dream should occur as it did, and should tally so closely with the facts? |
| 45041 | Were there no_ feeling_ awakened by the intellectual perception, would there be any volition with regard to the object perceived? |
| 45041 | What are order and proportion? |
| 45041 | What are the limits, if limits there are, to this belief of the uniformity of nature, and to the reasoning based on that belief? |
| 45041 | What but love could prompt to the many sacrifices and privations cheerfully endured for its welfare? |
| 45041 | What but love could sustain the weary mother during the long and anxious nights of watching by the couch of her suffering child? |
| 45041 | What constitutes a cause? |
| 45041 | What do they express of the higher or spiritual element of being? |
| 45041 | What does he need, the material universe remaining what it is? |
| 45041 | What else are the little communities of the bee, and the ant, and the beaver, but so many busy cities, and states, of the insect and animal tribes? |
| 45041 | What emotion does that object awaken in me? |
| 45041 | What evidence have we that they do not habitually deceive us? |
| 45041 | What evidence have we, in a word, of the existence of any thing beyond and without our own minds? |
| 45041 | What have we found to be the process of the mind in volition? |
| 45041 | What have we to do with them or they with us? |
| 45041 | What have we, under all these manifestations, but the desire of superiority, and what is that but the desire of power in one of its most common forms? |
| 45041 | What is it in the object, that constitutes its beauty? |
| 45041 | What is it precisely that we hear? |
| 45041 | What is it that I see in this case? |
| 45041 | What is it that is beautiful? |
| 45041 | What is it with the lower animals? |
| 45041 | What is that but an instance under the law of similarity? |
| 45041 | What is that but the operation of the law of contiguity in time? |
| 45041 | What is that but the relation of cause to effect? |
| 45041 | What is that certain peculiarity, or quality, of a certain class of objects, which constitutes what we call_ the ludicrous_, objectively considered? |
| 45041 | What is the consequence? |
| 45041 | What mean we by that word? |
| 45041 | What now are my emotions? |
| 45041 | What of yourself had you forgotten? |
| 45041 | What passes now in my mind? |
| 45041 | What produces it? |
| 45041 | What standard have you for measuring motives and gauging their strength, except simply to judge of them by the_ effects_ they produce? |
| 45041 | What then are the facts in the case, as given by consciousness, and observation? |
| 45041 | What then is the fact? |
| 45041 | What voucher have we for its correctness? |
| 45041 | What, but the love of power, leads the warrior forth, at the head of conquering armies, to devastate and subdue new realms? |
| 45041 | What, in fact, is the mind itself but cerebral activity, and what is man, with all his higher powers, but a mere animated organism? |
| 45041 | What, then, is a faculty of the mind? |
| 45041 | What, then, is the analogy? |
| 45041 | What, then, is the simple idea of space? |
| 45041 | What_ is_ this faculty as exercised; a judgment, a process of reasoning, or an emotion? |
| 45041 | Whatever may be true of deduction, is not induction essentially a synthetic process? |
| 45041 | When I experience an emotion of fear, of hope, of joy, or of sorrow, what is it that is joyful or sorrowful, hopeful or fearful? |
| 45041 | When we first open our eyes on external objects, do we receive the idea of extension and figure, or only of color? |
| 45041 | When we fix the eye upon any object, more or less remote, what is it, strictly speaking, that we see, extension and figure, or only color? |
| 45041 | Whence come these first principles? |
| 45041 | Whence comes the notion of a time, a space, a substance, a cause, a right or wrong act? |
| 45041 | Whence comes the_ idea_ of right and wrong which lies at the foundation of every particular judgment as to the moral character of actions? |
| 45041 | Whence did_ they_ derive them? |
| 45041 | Where is it to be sought? |
| 45041 | Whether this be stated before or after the conclusion is a mere matter of form; but what is our authority for stating such a proposition at all? |
| 45041 | Which of these views, then, is the correct and true one? |
| 45041 | Who shall solve this problem; who shall read me this strange inexplicable riddle of human life? |
| 45041 | Who taught_ them_, and set_ them_ the example? |
| 45041 | Why are we not_ all_ misers, if such associations are the true cause and explanation of avarice? |
| 45041 | Why did I choose_ a_? |
| 45041 | Will the name itself afford any solution of this problem? |
| 45041 | Would not such an arrangement be of great service? |
| 45041 | Would not this virtually shut out and extinguish all mental action? |
| 45041 | _ A Dream, what._--What, then, is a_ dream_? |
| 45041 | _ Activity of the Sensibilities also involved._--But does volition immediately follow the action of the intellect in the case supposed? |
| 45041 | _ Apparent Difficulty._--The difficulty which it seems to present is this: How can the eye perceive itself? |
| 45041 | _ Application of the preceding Psychology to this Question._--How, then, are these two great facts to be reconciled? |
| 45041 | _ Authority for this Belief._--But what reason have I to believe that what is true of the many is true of the whole, and how do I know this? |
| 45041 | _ But suppose the Disposition wanting._--Suppose, now, the disposition to be wanting; does the power also disappear, or does it remain? |
| 45041 | _ Can_ my choice be otherwise than it is? |
| 45041 | _ Diversity of Objects essential to Choice._--What is_ implied_ in an act of choice? |
| 45041 | _ Evidence impossible._--But whence is this evidence to come? |
| 45041 | _ Freedom lies where._--Now in this whole process,_ where_ does the element of freedom lie? |
| 45041 | _ Freedom of the Will, what._--What, then, is freedom of the_ will_? |
| 45041 | _ Hearing not properly Perception._--Is hearing then a sensation merely, or is it a perception? |
| 45041 | _ How Acquaintance leads to Friendship._--To what is this owing? |
| 45041 | _ Imagination as related to Memory._--How, then, does imagination differ from_ memory_? |
| 45041 | _ It is, nevertheless, to be followed._--What, then, are we to do? |
| 45041 | _ Its Value not thus destroyed._--But of what use, it will be said, is a moral faculty, on which, after all, we can not rely? |
| 45041 | _ Judgment in relation to Knowledge._--Are judgment and knowledge identical? |
| 45041 | _ Judgment._--Are they then the product and operation of the faculty of judgment? |
| 45041 | _ Legal Enactment._--Do we then derive these ideas from legal_ restriction and enactment_? |
| 45041 | _ Limits of Belief._--What are the limits of belief in testimony? |
| 45041 | _ Main Question._--The main question is, are these ideas_ natural_, or_ artificial and acquired_? |
| 45041 | _ Man not the highest Type of Beauty._--Is then the human form the highest expression of the principle of beauty? |
| 45041 | _ Meaning of the Term._--What is sleep? |
| 45041 | _ Memory in the Brute._--It may still be asked, does not the brute_ remember_? |
| 45041 | _ Mental Philosophy, what._--What is Mental Philosophy, as distinguished from other branches of science? |
| 45041 | _ Not a mere Conception._--Is space, then, a mere conception of the mind, merely subjective? |
| 45041 | _ Not derived from Sense._--But is not this principle of causality derived from experience? |
| 45041 | _ Not necessary to suppose them Supernatural._--Shall we believe, then, that dreams are sometimes prophetic? |
| 45041 | _ Not the first._--Is it the first? |
| 45041 | _ Observation of an Act of Will._--What, then, are the essential phenomena of an act of the will? |
| 45041 | _ Opposite View._--On the other hand, if we make space a reality, and not a mere conception, what is it, and where is it? |
| 45041 | _ Prophetic Aspect._--Are dreams sometimes_ prophetic_, and how are such to be accounted for? |
| 45041 | _ Question returns._--Among these several views, where then, lies the truth? |
| 45041 | _ Question stated._--But what are the laws of association, or suggestion, so- called-- in other words, of mental conception? |
| 45041 | _ Question stated._--Is beauty merely subjective, an emotion of our own minds, or is it a quality of objects? |
| 45041 | _ Reasons for regarding Consciousness as not a distinct Faculty._--Is this, however, a distinct faculty of the mind? |
| 45041 | _ Second Question-- Does Sight give Distance?_--Is it also by vision that we obtain the idea of the_ distance_ of objects and their externality? |
| 45041 | _ Sleep involves primarily Loss of Consciousness._--What then, further than this, is sleep? |
| 45041 | _ Space.__ Subjective View._--What is space? |
| 45041 | _ Special Sense._--Shall we attribute these ideas to a_ special sense_? |
| 45041 | _ Strengthened by Use._--In what way, it is sometimes asked, may the faculty under consideration be improved and strengthened? |
| 45041 | _ The Nature of Conscience._--What is it? |
| 45041 | _ The Question and its different Answers._--But here an important question presents itself:_ Whence come_ these ideas and perceptions; their origin? |
| 45041 | _ The Question stated._--_Views of Locke and Dryden._--Under what circumstances, then, is the feeling of the ludicrous awakened? |
| 45041 | _ The Question._--Which, then, of these elements is it that answers to the idea of taste, as used to denote a power of the mind? |
| 45041 | _ The Term"strongest"as thus employed._--Much depends on what we mean by"strongest"in this connection, and what by the word"determined?" |
| 45041 | _ The more important Distinctions to be first ascertained._--What, then, are the clearly distinct modes of mental activity? |
| 45041 | _ The true Answer._--To the question, then,_ can_ the man whose inclinations are to evil, whose heart is wrong, do right? |
| 45041 | _ Theory of Novelty._--And first, is it the_ novelty_ of the thing? |
| 45041 | _ Theory of the Useful._--Is, then, the_ useful_ the beautiful? |
| 45041 | _ To Perception._--In what respect does it differ from_ perception_? |
| 45041 | _ Unjust to require what it is impossible to perform._--Have I power, in all cases, to do what the divine will requires; power to do_ right_? |
| 45041 | _ What Evidence of Correctness._--How are we to know, then, whether conscience judges right? |
| 45041 | _ What_ name? |
| 45041 | _ Will it be put in Requisition?_--But will this power be ever exercised? |
| 45041 | and the more beautiful it is, does it so much the more plainly and directly manifest this element? |
| 45041 | g._, that all men are mortal? |
| 45041 | is too often true, and what then becomes of my_ power_ to do right? |
| 45041 | that, as we grow old, while perhaps other powers of the mind are still vigorous, the memory begins to lose its tenacity? |
| 45041 | ye learned men, explain What essence, substance, what hypostasis In five poor letters is? |
| 22593 | ''Did you recognize the spirit?'' 22593 ''Does any one recognize this"party"?'' |
| 22593 | ''How many bars are in it?'' 22593 ''Who are you?'' |
| 22593 | ''Who are you?'' 22593 A male psychic? |
| 22593 | Absorbing business, is n''t it? |
| 22593 | After she passed, my friend opened her eyes as before, clearly, smilingly, and said,''Have you had enough?'' 22593 After that superb test, why did n''t he frankly say the discarnate had been proved?" |
| 22593 | Am I right? |
| 22593 | And how about your own subconscious self? 22593 And not in me? |
| 22593 | And this was done? |
| 22593 | Are n''t there any fixed rules to the game? |
| 22593 | Are n''t we sitting right? |
| 22593 | Are there other spirits present? |
| 22593 | Are there other''spirits''here? |
| 22593 | Are you present,''Wilbur''? |
| 22593 | Are you satisfied with the conditions? |
| 22593 | Are you sure the writing was there as she drew the slate out? |
| 22593 | Are_ you_ the only one competent to study these facts? |
| 22593 | As a test? |
| 22593 | Because he is a sceptic? |
| 22593 | But how will he account for the difference in size between Eusapia''s hands and the_ large black hand_ that she saw and felt? |
| 22593 | But were they? 22593 But what about the voices?" |
| 22593 | But where does all this lead to if not to spiritualism? |
| 22593 | But who are you? |
| 22593 | But your mind is perfectly normal? |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you speak? |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you tell us about it more particularly? |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you write? |
| 22593 | Can it be that the good old theory of the permanence of matter is a gross and childish thing? 22593 Can you deceive''them''?" |
| 22593 | Candidly, Garland, what is your own belief? |
| 22593 | Could you see this hand? |
| 22593 | Did he get the records? |
| 22593 | Did he manufacture a double out of you? |
| 22593 | Did it succeed? |
| 22593 | Did n''t Crookes afterward repudiate that early report? |
| 22593 | Did she look like the medium? |
| 22593 | Did some one blow on my hands? 22593 Did the medium look at the music?" |
| 22593 | Did the writing appear to be supernormal? |
| 22593 | Did you accept his invitation? |
| 22593 | Did you mean you did n''t want Mrs. Fowler unaccounted for? |
| 22593 | Do n''t you believe in them? |
| 22593 | Do they speak to you directly? |
| 22593 | Do you always have that sensation? |
| 22593 | Do you believe in the guides? |
| 22593 | Do you ever have any perception of a physical connection between yourself and the sitters? |
| 22593 | Do you feel any motion in your thread, Fowler? |
| 22593 | Do you feel faint? |
| 22593 | Do you intend to convey that they considered the medium dishonest? |
| 22593 | Do you mean that the man and the ghost were united in some way? |
| 22593 | Do you mean that they did this to punish you for your peeping? |
| 22593 | Do you mean that you will believe in spirits? |
| 22593 | Do you mean they sound like actual people? |
| 22593 | Do you mean to say spirits speak through that horn? |
| 22593 | Do you mean to say that this''Katie King''phantom actually_ talked_ with the people in the room? 22593 Does he find this sandwiching of the sexes helpful?" |
| 22593 | Does he not say that, in spite of all his proof, he will not even hazard an affirmation of the phenomena? |
| 22593 | Does this theory cover the whispering personalities we heard? 22593 Essentials such as what?" |
| 22593 | Even in the''Katie King''episode? |
| 22593 | Fowler,I said,"are you controlling your wife''s hands?" |
| 22593 | Garland, will you purvey another psychic and conduct the pursuit? |
| 22593 | Has she been in the business long? |
| 22593 | Has that ever been done? |
| 22593 | Have you ever had any convincing evidence of this psychic force-- such as movement of objects without contact? |
| 22593 | Have you ever seen it done? |
| 22593 | Have you ever seen these forces at work? |
| 22593 | Have you ever witnessed any materializations? |
| 22593 | Have you tried to secure more of the music? |
| 22593 | How could Dolly have known that he held his pen in just that way? 22593 How do we go at it?" |
| 22593 | How do you account for a thing of that sort? |
| 22593 | How do you account for it, Miller? |
| 22593 | How do you account for it? 22593 How do you feel?" |
| 22593 | How does she do it? |
| 22593 | How does the scientific gentleman explain it? |
| 22593 | How was she dressed? |
| 22593 | How? 22593 I gently asked:''Who are you? |
| 22593 | I thought from what you had said that these''dark shows''were of no value? |
| 22593 | If you do not believe in tacks, will you believe in the touch of your fingers? |
| 22593 | Is anybody present? |
| 22593 | Is it the bishop? |
| 22593 | Is n''t it incredible? 22593 Is n''t the latest word of science to the effect that matter like the human body is only a temporary condition of force?" |
| 22593 | Is she a psychic? |
| 22593 | Is she married? |
| 22593 | Is the house ready for the question? |
| 22593 | Is the psychic speaking to us,he asked,"or are these voices independent of her?" |
| 22593 | Is there anything sacred in error? 22593 It is the clay,"I said, quickly;"will you make the impression of a face?" |
| 22593 | Just who is Bottazzi? |
| 22593 | May I come forward? |
| 22593 | Mrs. Smiley was about that age, was n''t she? |
| 22593 | Must we keep still? |
| 22593 | Now will some one sing''Annie Laurie,''or any other sweet, low song? 22593 Now, just to show you that the psychic is not doing this, ca n''t you hold up a book between me and the light? |
| 22593 | Now, which of us did that? |
| 22593 | Oh, come now, you do n''t expect us to believe a miracle like that, even on your serious statement? |
| 22593 | Ross laughed, and the''influence,''thrusting her face close to his, blurted out, menacingly:''Do n''t know me, hey? 22593 Sands?" |
| 22593 | Shall I change with Miller? |
| 22593 | Shall I go now? |
| 22593 | Suppose it''s all the work of an''astral''who ca n''t abide the light? |
| 22593 | Suppose you had been able to find that musical fragment, would it have converted you? |
| 22593 | Tell us more about yourself,''Wilbur''? |
| 22593 | That is good talk,said Miller in reply,"but the question is, Does he really experiment in that condition of mind? |
| 22593 | That would seem to prove a sort of universal mind reservoir, would n''t it? |
| 22593 | The first requisite is a small table--"Why a table? |
| 22593 | The question with me is not, Do these forms exist? 22593 The word means feeling at a distance, does it not, professor?" |
| 22593 | Then why go on? 22593 Was this the climax of his series? |
| 22593 | We have heard of Lombroso, but who is Paladino? |
| 22593 | Well, Garland, what do you intend to do with the facts obtained this afternoon? 22593 Well, how will you explain this performance? |
| 22593 | Well, now,said Cameron,"the practical question is this: are we to go on with our investigation?" |
| 22593 | Well, what do you suggest as the proper method for the society? |
| 22593 | Well, what luck? |
| 22593 | Were not the notions of Galileo and Darwin also subverting? |
| 22593 | Were there three doctors present? |
| 22593 | Were you conscious of groaning and gasping? |
| 22593 | What I would like to know at this point,Harris quickly interposed,"is this: were the fingermarks lined like Bottazzi''s or like the medium''s?" |
| 22593 | What about it? 22593 What about that, Miller?" |
| 22593 | What about the other messages? 22593 What about the process?" |
| 22593 | What are you reading from? |
| 22593 | What are you saying? 22593 What did Alexander''s family think of the music?" |
| 22593 | What did it look like? |
| 22593 | What do you do with that? |
| 22593 | What do you know about this learned doctor? |
| 22593 | What do you mean by speaking? |
| 22593 | What do you mean by that? |
| 22593 | What do you mean by''physiological determinism''? |
| 22593 | What do you mean by''the playing of a closed piano''? |
| 22593 | What do you wish to imply? |
| 22593 | What does he mean? 22593 What does she do?" |
| 22593 | What happened to you? |
| 22593 | What happened? 22593 What happened?" |
| 22593 | What have you been doing to me? |
| 22593 | What is her''phase,''as you call it? |
| 22593 | What is she about now? |
| 22593 | What is she talking about? |
| 22593 | What is telepathy, then? |
| 22593 | What is the matter? |
| 22593 | What is your reason for that? |
| 22593 | What was Blake''s conclusion? 22593 What was that work?" |
| 22593 | What was the psychic doing all this time? |
| 22593 | What was the''Katie King''experience? |
| 22593 | What were the conditions? 22593 What''s the matter, Dolly?" |
| 22593 | What_ is_ a real hand? |
| 22593 | Where is the medium? |
| 22593 | Where is the pad? 22593 Where was Paladino meanwhile?" |
| 22593 | Who are you? 22593 Who are you?" |
| 22593 | Who is Maxwell? |
| 22593 | Who is it? |
| 22593 | Who is she? |
| 22593 | Who''s doing that? 22593 Why are you doing this?" |
| 22593 | Why attempt to reduce her manifestations to natural magic? 22593 Why did n''t these wonders take place in our presence?" |
| 22593 | Why did n''t you bring her to dinner? |
| 22593 | Why disturb her belief in the spirit world? |
| 22593 | Why illusory? |
| 22593 | Why not accuse the arch- conspirator of us all, our director? |
| 22593 | Why not? 22593 Why should you and Brierly be so favored?" |
| 22593 | Why? |
| 22593 | Why? |
| 22593 | Why? |
| 22593 | Why? |
| 22593 | Will you be able to do something more for us? |
| 22593 | Will you tell me how that final movement was made? 22593 Wo n''t you tell me who you were on the earth- plane?" |
| 22593 | Wo n''t you tell us all about it? |
| 22593 | Would you have us accept the word of any one man when that word contradicts the experience of all mankind? |
| 22593 | Would''they''bat me if I were to peek? |
| 22593 | You admit being a prestidigitator? |
| 22593 | You are sure the piano was closed? |
| 22593 | You believe''they''are spirits? |
| 22593 | You did n''t see anything like that, did you? |
| 22593 | You had that experience, did you not? |
| 22593 | You mean, of course, that some of these highly cultured ladies would develop hysteria? |
| 22593 | You must be very tired, poor thing? |
| 22593 | You sometimes seem to go far away, do you not? |
| 22593 | You were pretty well convinced that night in your study, were n''t you? |
| 22593 | _ All right._"What are you going to do for us to- night? 22593 _ I was a soldier._""In the Civil War?" |
| 22593 | _ I was invalided home to Jefferson City, and passed out there._"How do you happen to be''guide''to this little woman? |
| 22593 | _ I''m doing it._"How can you see? |
| 22593 | _ Wilbur Thompson._"Oh, it is you, is it? 22593 _ Yes._""On which side?" |
| 22593 | _ Yes; many._"Ca n''t''they''write their names on the pad? |
| 22593 | ''"[ 2]"I wonder why the spirits are always clothed in that luminous gauze?" |
| 22593 | ''Are you controlling the psychic''s hand?'' |
| 22593 | ''As many as sixty?'' |
| 22593 | ''But the message concerning your mother can be tested, can it not?'' |
| 22593 | ''Ca n''t you keep time while I whistle?'' |
| 22593 | ''Can a man lift himself by his boot- straps?'' |
| 22593 | ''Can the subconscious self act in several places at once?'' |
| 22593 | ''Can you tell me the places?'' |
| 22593 | ''Do you know what you''ve said?'' |
| 22593 | ''Forty?'' |
| 22593 | ''How many persons were there?'' |
| 22593 | ''How, then, can we consider it to be a spirit hand-- an immaterial hand-- when a wire- netting can stop it?'' |
| 22593 | ''Oh, where am I?'' |
| 22593 | ''Presently she asked:"What is that round object? |
| 22593 | ''Shall I publish it?'' |
| 22593 | ''To whom does this hand belong?'' |
| 22593 | ''What are you all doing here? |
| 22593 | ''What do you want done with this fragment,"Isinghere"?'' |
| 22593 | ''What do you want of me?'' |
| 22593 | ''Why do you wilfully blind your eyes? |
| 22593 | ''Wilbur,''can you put the cone back on the table?" |
| 22593 | A light, fumbling noise followed, and I called out:"Is every hand in the circle accounted for?" |
| 22593 | A moment later she opened her eyes, and, smiling rather wanly, asked of me:"Did anything happen?" |
| 22593 | A.''?" |
| 22593 | Accepting this law as proved by our illustrious fellow- experimenters abroad, are you ready to try again along the lines they have marked out?" |
| 22593 | Aksakof told him all he needed to do was to go round the corner, did n''t he?" |
| 22593 | Almost immediately faint raps came upon the table, and I asked:"Are you there,''Mitchell''?" |
| 22593 | Am I right, Miller?" |
| 22593 | And Mrs. Quigg, much shaken, called out:"Frank Howard, are you doing this?" |
| 22593 | Another little colloquy: Editor:"Shall I draw the bar where it belongs?" |
| 22593 | Are we not forced to conclude that the table was moved by some supernormal expenditure of force? |
| 22593 | Are we sitting right?" |
| 22593 | Are we sitting right?" |
| 22593 | Are you addressing me?" |
| 22593 | Are you conscious of being in the upper part of the room, for instance, and do you see your body below you?'' |
| 22593 | Are you not holding one hand and Miss Brush the other? |
| 22593 | Are you still with us,''Wilbur''?" |
| 22593 | Are you still with us,''Wilbur''?" |
| 22593 | Are you sure of Blake?" |
| 22593 | As I paused, Harris said:"Was all that in his report to the Royal Society?" |
| 22593 | At last I asked,"Has any one here lost a little child?" |
| 22593 | At length she recovered her voice and asked,''Are you speaking to me?'' |
| 22593 | At the end of the song I asked, matter- of- factly:"Are the conditions right? |
| 22593 | But is n''t that a staggering hypothesis? |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you do something decisive at this moment?" |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you pluck the bass strings?'' |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you prove that she is independent of your voice? |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you see how necessary it is that we should proceed with her full consent? |
| 22593 | Ca n''t you tell us your name?'' |
| 22593 | Can you bring that to me,''Wilbur''?" |
| 22593 | Can you do that for me?" |
| 22593 | Can you imagine any reasonable person believing such things?" |
| 22593 | Can you raise the table?" |
| 22593 | Can you tell me who they were?'' |
| 22593 | Can you tell us,''Wilbur''?" |
| 22593 | Composer:"_ No._"Editor:"There?" |
| 22593 | Composer:"_ Yes, if you please._"Editor:"Here?" |
| 22593 | Composer:"_ Yes._"Editor:"Is the G- sharp, then, to be regarded as a suspension?" |
| 22593 | Could any trickster perform in the dark with such precision and gentleness? |
| 22593 | Did Bottazzi get these things done?" |
| 22593 | Did anything happen?" |
| 22593 | Did he put the same value upon it all that you did?" |
| 22593 | Did she get the books with her feet? |
| 22593 | Do the dead tell tales, after all? |
| 22593 | Do you object?" |
| 22593 | Does Sir William Crookes say that?" |
| 22593 | Does he mean that Eusapia performed all these movements with her''astral hands''?" |
| 22593 | Does it not seem to you a case of the''psychic force,''such as Crookes and Richet describe?" |
| 22593 | Does she perform for a living? |
| 22593 | Dolly, what have you been doing?" |
| 22593 | Finally I asked:"Are you still with us,''Wilbur''?" |
| 22593 | Fowler struck in:"But what will you do with materializations such as Dr. Richet studied at the Villa Carmen in Algiers? |
| 22593 | Garland?" |
| 22593 | Garland?" |
| 22593 | Have I been asleep?" |
| 22593 | Have they all been on the physical plane?" |
| 22593 | Have you had other messages written in that wonderful way?" |
| 22593 | Here I interposed:"The only question that concerns me at this stage is: Does the table tip and the brush really fly? |
| 22593 | How about it, Garland?" |
| 22593 | How about it, Miller?" |
| 22593 | How about the books? |
| 22593 | How about the broad hand which I saw? |
| 22593 | How about the candy- box which was moved from a point seven feet away? |
| 22593 | How can a thought in the brain of man contract a set of muscles and lift a cannon- ball? |
| 22593 | How can letters within closed slates be formed so beautifully and so precisely without some form of seeing?" |
| 22593 | How can she possibly reach and handle that cone?" |
| 22593 | How could it be correct otherwise?_"Another example. |
| 22593 | How could she slip from her bonds? |
| 22593 | How did you happen to get into this shadow world?" |
| 22593 | How do you account for that, Miller?" |
| 22593 | How do you account for the writing? |
| 22593 | How do you feel?" |
| 22593 | How do you feel?" |
| 22593 | How does she handle the cone? |
| 22593 | How does she write on the pads on the table, and how does she whisk them away? |
| 22593 | How else could the cone be handled with such precision as was shown at your house, Miller? |
| 22593 | I am inclined to think they are produced by some force within ourselves--''""Just what does he mean by that?" |
| 22593 | I asked:"Who are you? |
| 22593 | I glanced about the table at my silent listeners, and added:"Could anything be more dramatic than this sad farewell? |
| 22593 | I meant to take it away, but did I? |
| 22593 | I met him twice._''""''Can you tell me where?'' |
| 22593 | I say facts, for I am opposed to the theory._''""Did Lombroso say that?" |
| 22593 | I then asked:"''Wilbur,''do you want me to change with Fowler and control Mrs. Fowler''s hands?" |
| 22593 | I was a brigadier- general._""Where were you killed?" |
| 22593 | I was so badly off mentally that I do n''t know whether I did or not._''Whereupon Blake said:''Do you mean Schumann the publisher?'' |
| 22593 | I''m like the old man''s chickens( you''ve heard the story? |
| 22593 | If it were a mere matter of deception, would there not be thousands at the trade? |
| 22593 | In pursuit of this idea, I then asked:''Are you conscious of your body which you have left behind? |
| 22593 | Is every hand accounted for?" |
| 22593 | Is it Mrs. R., of Vermont?" |
| 22593 | Is it not rather suggestive that the number of practising mediums does not materially increase? |
| 22593 | Is it something analogous to the pteropod of an amoeba, which projects itself from the body, then retreats into it only to reappear in another place? |
| 22593 | Is it the hand of a monstrous long arm which liberates itself from the medium''s body, then dissolves, to afterward"materialize"afresh? |
| 22593 | Is she nice? |
| 22593 | Is that what you mean?" |
| 22593 | Is this just? |
| 22593 | Is this_ all_ he is willing to affirm?" |
| 22593 | Is''Wilbur''your surname?" |
| 22593 | May I do so?" |
| 22593 | Miller was silent for a moment, then asked:"You''re sure it was done after you took the slates in hand?" |
| 22593 | Miller, will you watch me?" |
| 22593 | Miller?" |
| 22593 | Mitchell would like to have you tie the threads to the legs of the table._""Are you''Maud?''" |
| 22593 | Mrs. Quigg caught me up on this:"What do you mean by''traditions of mediumship''?" |
| 22593 | Mrs. Quigg sharply queried,"Whom are you talking to?" |
| 22593 | Nevertheless, how many"_ knowing_ people and_ savans_"have formed a judgment on phenomena after séances such as this one?''" |
| 22593 | Remember Geny? |
| 22593 | Remember the night on the door- step? |
| 22593 | Shall I try?" |
| 22593 | She brought books, shook the table, touched us-- How?" |
| 22593 | Smiley?" |
| 22593 | Smiley?" |
| 22593 | Smiley?" |
| 22593 | Smiley?" |
| 22593 | Smiley?" |
| 22593 | Suppose Flammarion is right? |
| 22593 | Suppose that the psychic can extend her arms beyond their normal proportions? |
| 22593 | Suppose the whisper were only a bit of clever ventriloquism, how did the psychic secure the information conveyed in this dialogue? |
| 22593 | Tap, tap, tap--"_Yes._""Are we sitting right?" |
| 22593 | The answer was but a sibilant sigh:"_ Yes._""Who are you?" |
| 22593 | The following colloquy ensued: Editor:"Does the piece begin with the tonic chord of A?" |
| 22593 | Then all turned to Miller as though to ask:"What do you think of that?" |
| 22593 | There was a loud outcry:"What do you mean? |
| 22593 | Thereupon I said:''Ca n''t you play a tune?'' |
| 22593 | Thus far to- night we have_ proved_ that Mrs. Smiley is not concerned with the drumming on the cone, have n''t we?" |
| 22593 | To sustain this contention, let me ask if you have ever read the account of Sir William Crookes''s experiments with psychic force?" |
| 22593 | Two or three times the whispering voice called,''_ Is Garland here?_''and once it asked:''_ What is Garland doing? |
| 22593 | Two or three times the whispering voice called,''_ Is Garland here?_''and once it asked:''_ What is Garland doing? |
| 22593 | Was it light?" |
| 22593 | Was the woman crushed?" |
| 22593 | We sat in silence for a few moments, and at last I asked:"Is any spirit present?" |
| 22593 | Were they all disappointing?" |
| 22593 | What about the tacks, the threads, the tapes that bound her? |
| 22593 | What about''Wilbur''and''Maudie''?" |
| 22593 | What are your sensations now?" |
| 22593 | What can you do for us to- night?" |
| 22593 | What did you do on the earth?" |
| 22593 | What do you want us to do-- announce ourselves converted?" |
| 22593 | What does he mean to infer?" |
| 22593 | What have you been about?" |
| 22593 | What is it?" |
| 22593 | What is your verdict, Mr. Cocksure Scientist?" |
| 22593 | What kind of a person are we to expect?" |
| 22593 | What then? |
| 22593 | What time is it?" |
| 22593 | What time is it?" |
| 22593 | What will you do with the photographs of the spectre of the helmeted soldier which he obtained under what he declares were test conditions?" |
| 22593 | What you going to do about it?'' |
| 22593 | When and where shall we meet?" |
| 22593 | When this had finished, I said,"Did you succeed?" |
| 22593 | Where does she live?" |
| 22593 | Where''s Jim?'' |
| 22593 | Which of us is doing this?" |
| 22593 | Who is she? |
| 22593 | Who is she? |
| 22593 | Who knows but the conclusions of Venzano and Morselli, of Bottazzi and Foà, have opened new vistas in human nature? |
| 22593 | Whose is the eye that directs this instrument? |
| 22593 | Why did n''t he handcuff her, or nail her down? |
| 22593 | Why doubt that which would comfort you?'' |
| 22593 | Why not admit the truth? |
| 22593 | Why not perform in the light?" |
| 22593 | Why not stop now and save ourselves the trouble of investigation?" |
| 22593 | Will I like her?" |
| 22593 | Will she be able to discharge a gold- leaf electroscope without touching it?" |
| 22593 | Will she be able to illuminate a screen treated with platino- cyanide of barium? |
| 22593 | Will the medium be able to impress a photographic plate? |
| 22593 | Will you be able to permit conditions more convincing?" |
| 22593 | Will you be one of them?" |
| 22593 | Will you do that,''Wilbur''?" |
| 22593 | Will you permit that?" |
| 22593 | Will you permit this test?" |
| 22593 | Wo n''t somebody help me? |
| 22593 | Would n''t our deserters be chagrined if we should now proceed to enjoy a really startling session?" |
| 22593 | Would that necessarily make the spiritist theory untenable? |
| 22593 | You are not doing this, Miller?" |
| 22593 | You believe in her?" |
| 22593 | You do not stand out against wireless telegraphy or the Röntgen ray?" |
| 22593 | You have had other sittings with her, have n''t you? |
| 22593 | _ Tap, tap, tap._"Are you moving the table?" |
| 22593 | _ Tap, tap, tap._"To get it out of reach of the psychic?" |
| 22593 | at times represented an opposing will?" |
| 22593 | but, What produces them? |
| 22593 | had_ spoken_ these things to you face to face-- what then?" |
| 22593 | he asked--''this hand, a half a yard away from the medium''s head, seen while her visible hands are rigorously controlled by her two neighbors? |
| 22593 | queried the painter;"who is Sands?" |
| 22593 | questioned Fowler--"that he disputed certain passages with Blake, and that he finally carried his point in opposition to every mind in the circle?" |
| 22593 | replied; and I said:''And you want the manuscript recalled from Schumann and given to Smart?'' |
| 22593 | she cried out, and Mrs. Cameron stared at her in blank dismay as she asked,"Are you talking to me?" |
| 22593 | turned toward me and asked, with anxious haste:''_ Where''s Garland?_''''I am here,''I answered. |
| 36312 | ''Hath she brought the book to you( the accusing girls)?'' 36312 ''How can you say you know nothing, when you see these tormented and accuse you?'' |
| 36312 | ''Is this folly to see these so hurt?'' 36312 ''Of what sin?'' |
| 36312 | ''Sarah Good, do you not see now what you have done? 36312 ''Sarah Good, what evil spirit have you familiarity with?'' |
| 36312 | ''Well, sir, would you have me confess what I never knew?'' 36312 ''What did you think of the actions of others before your sisters came out? |
| 36312 | ''What do you say to this?'' 36312 ''What do you say; are you guilty?'' |
| 36312 | ''What do you think ails them?'' 36312 ''What have you done to these children?'' |
| 36312 | ''What_ creature_ do you employ, then?'' 36312 ''Why did you go away muttering from Mr. Parris''s house?'' |
| 36312 | ''Why, do you not think it is witchcraft?'' 36312 Can you not,"we asked,"find him through her?" |
| 36312 | How did you afflict folks? 36312 I do not hurt poor children? |
| 36312 | O, star- eyedFancy,"hast thou wandered there, To waft us back the message of"--_credulity_? |
| 36312 | Sarah Good being then asked, if that_ she_ did not hurt them, who did it? 36312 She_ pretended_ that the evil[?] |
| 36312 | TheWhy have you done it?" |
| 36312 | Were you to serve the devil ten years? 36312 What does she eat or drink?" |
| 36312 | Who is it then? |
| 36312 | Who made you a witch? 36312 Why did you say the magistrates''and ministers''eyes were blinded,"and"you would open them? |

| 36312 | ''Do you think they are bewitched?'' |
| 36312 | ''Doth this woman hurt you?'' |

| 36312 | ''Have you made no contract with the devil?'' |
| 36312 | ''How came they thus tormented?'' |
| 36312 | ''How comes your appearance just now to hurt these?'' |
| 36312 | ''How do I know?'' |
| 36312 | ''Then,''said I,''how can all these things be done by him?'' |
| 36312 | ''What God do you serve?'' |

| 36312 | But seemingly the court could not wait for an answer, because, in the same breath, it asked, What did your visitant tell you? |
| 36312 | But the magistrate seemingly doubted its truth or its sufficiency, for he next asked,--"_ Q._ Why have you done it? |

| 36312 | But why to Thomas Putnam''s? |
| 36312 | But with what eyes? |
| 36312 | By whom was it seen? |
| 36312 | Can any one doubt that she conceived herself to be speaking to the same being, though in dog form, that she had yielded to before in form like a man? |
| 36312 | Can reflection find her competent to all that was ascribed to her? |
| 36312 | Community called such matters witchcrafts, and why should not these children do the same? |
| 36312 | Confessed to what? |
| 36312 | Could Ann Foster''s gray- haired man have been Tituba''s white- haired visitant-- the originator and enactor of Salem witchcraft? |
| 36312 | Could firm, true men, holding then prevalent beliefs, have done less? |
| 36312 | Dadie thought I spoke, and said,''What''m?'' |
| 36312 | Did he believe that_ demons_ acted within her, held her back, and made her something like three times heavier than she normally was? |
| 36312 | Did he offer you any paper? |
| 36312 | Did he say you must write anything? |
| 36312 | Did he see, hear, and feel all that he testifies to? |
| 36312 | Did he tell you who they were? |
| 36312 | Did such observable effects occur as Mather described? |
| 36312 | Did supernal prescience select and post agents peculiarly fitted to perform the witchcraft tragedy? |
| 36312 | Did the historian himself who quoted those words and let them appear to be accurately descriptive of facts, believe that they were such? |
| 36312 | Did they, or did other agencies, produce the mysterious disorders which seemed to devil- dreading beholders like diabolical obsessions? |
| 36312 | Did you think it was witchcraft?'' |
| 36312 | Do such feats bespeak their origin in_ delirium tremens_? |
| 36312 | Do you get those cats, or other things, to do it for you? |
| 36312 | Does he believe that such things were actually performed either by or through her? |
| 36312 | Does he believe that such were the literal facts even in appearance? |
| 36312 | Does the hugeness which debars them from entering contracted domiciles to- day prove their existence to be but fabulous? |
| 36312 | Doth the devil tell you that he hurts them? |
| 36312 | Doth the devil tell you that he hurts them?" |
| 36312 | Elizabeth Knap''s visitant-- the one to whom she said,"What cheer, old man?" |
| 36312 | Especially do they ever spontaneously avow that the devil or any_ evil spirit_ is helping them? |
| 36312 | For who, in any community, would ever count one_ a saint_ who manifested such offensive qualities to any great extent as he ascribed to her? |
| 36312 | For,--"_ Q._ What did you say to him, then, after that? |
| 36312 | From whom came the things put forth through her which"she knew nothing of"? |
| 36312 | From whom came the tones, if not the words, of languages which this possessed girl had never learned? |
| 36312 | Had he met Tituba? |
| 36312 | Had it less sagacity than his own? |
| 36312 | Had she divulged her knowledge, what heed would have been given to the word of the ignorant slave? |
| 36312 | Had she made a_ covenant_ with the devil, or any devotee of his? |
| 36312 | Has he left record of a series of facts, or only of fictions which he set forth as facts? |
| 36312 | Has the Great Permitter of the many sufferings which war has engendered been"shockingly wicked"? |
| 36312 | Hath the devil ever deceived you and been false to you?'' |
| 36312 | He said,''Miss Perkins, can I go out and see who''s there?'' |
| 36312 | He was stating facts, which, in his apprehension, were harmless, and why should he not let them out? |
| 36312 | Her patients promiscuously? |
| 36312 | His only question was, did the thing occur? |
| 36312 | How can the occurrence of such facts be explained, or rather_ who_ produced them? |
| 36312 | How could he? |
| 36312 | How did the historian account for such-- for those seeming"more than natural"? |
| 36312 | How did you set your hand to it? |
| 36312 | How else can thought inhere?" |
| 36312 | How far have you complied with Satan whereby he takes this advantage of you?'' |
| 36312 | How far up, down, around, do natural forces and agents extend and operate? |
| 36312 | How much beneficence did one then need to perform before public sentiment, would reprobate its author? |
| 36312 | How much did this import? |
| 36312 | How old are you now? |
| 36312 | How_ know_ that she or her case was the then all- engrossing topic? |
| 36312 | How_ know_ that their manner was expressive of any particular topic of conversation? |
| 36312 | Hutchinson says,"The most remarkable occurrence in the colony in the year 1655[ 1656?] |
| 36312 | Hutchinson states that Mr. Dane himself"is_ tenderly_ touched in several of the examinations, which"( the tenderness?) |
| 36312 | I presently asked her, what letter? |
| 36312 | I said to him,''Can you say your lesson?'' |
| 36312 | If he resembled an Indian, is not the inference very fair that he was an Indian? |
| 36312 | If there be a fixed limit to nature''s domain, where is it? |
| 36312 | If we presume( and why may we not?) |
| 36312 | If_ entranced_, was the girl, then, a voluntary seer and speaker? |
| 36312 | Indeed, how can any other than perverted vision see harm in the girl''s filial compact? |
| 36312 | Indeed, who among men could possibly have taught or helped her to prophesy correctly, to hear the far distant, or to embody a spirit child? |
| 36312 | Is crabbed temper there? |
| 36312 | Is ignorance of, or is knowledge of, nature''s forces and inhabitants the greater blessing? |
| 36312 | Is it possible that the mind of man should be capable of such strong prejudices as that a suspicion of fraud should not immediately arise? |
| 36312 | Is she a witch or a cunning woman? |
| 36312 | Is slander there? |
| 36312 | Is that idea conveyed in calling her a successful practitioner? |
| 36312 | Is there only one kind of mental power throughout the whole animal kingdom, differing only in intensity and range of manifestation? |
| 36312 | Is this the woman?'' |
| 36312 | Little Sarah was asked,--"How long have you been a witch? |
| 36312 | May not natural endowments sometimes be ample qualification for admitting the evolvement through one''s form of very great marvels? |
| 36312 | Modern wisdom(?) |
| 36312 | Most seriously we ask whether forces which can be and have been measured by palpable scales, are"beyond the legitimate boundaries of human knowledge?" |
| 36312 | Mrs. Morse''s possession of their secret was so unaccountable that the husband in astonishment asked,"Is she a witch or a cunning woman?" |
| 36312 | My husband presently said, What? |
| 36312 | Now, then, there are some persons_ so constituted_ that they perceive these shadows(?) |
| 36312 | On that Wednesday night"Abigail first became ill.""_ Q._ Where was your master then? |
| 36312 | Or the second time? |
| 36312 | Perhaps he did; and yet on what rational grounds could he? |
| 36312 | She cried out to him,"What cheer, old man?" |
| 36312 | She had penetration enough to_ conjecture_"( why say_ conjecture_?) |
| 36312 | Should they be called outgrowths from"fraud and imposture,"as they were by another? |
| 36312 | Should they be left unadduced and unalluded to, as they were by one elaborate historian? |
| 36312 | The external or the internal one-- the boy material or the boy spiritual? |
| 36312 | The girl''s confession? |
| 36312 | The outer or the inner-- his material or his spiritual ones? |
| 36312 | The question was repeated thus:"_ Why_ did you never visit these afflicted persons?" |
| 36312 | The same question, partially, is up to- day-- viz., Can any but willing devotees to Satan be used in the processes of spirit manifestations? |
| 36312 | The_ confessions_(?) |
| 36312 | The_ only_ charge_ proved_? |
| 36312 | Then what did you answer him? |
| 36312 | Then why write? |
| 36312 | Therefore our fathers would with conscious propriety ask any one whom they supposed to be under"an evil hand,""Who hurts you?" |
| 36312 | This begs the primal question, viz.,_ Did_ he undertake to torment them? |
| 36312 | This weakness(?) |
| 36312 | To whom can they refer, if not to spirits of some grade? |
| 36312 | Was clear statement of what its senses had witnessed evidence of its credulity? |
| 36312 | Was he a faithful and true witness, or not? |
| 36312 | Was it causing iron to swim? |
| 36312 | Was it foolish in him to state the truth? |
| 36312 | Was it only her_ pretense_? |
| 36312 | Was it so? |
| 36312 | Was its belief in the testimony of its own senses a proof of its_ credulity_? |
| 36312 | Was she so generous as to give credit to another, and that other an"evil spirit,"for help which she did not receive? |
| 36312 | Was that a condition of things in which the younger two would join the elder in sly additions to the distress around them? |
| 36312 | Was that a_ deluded_ court, representative of a_ deluded_ people, which condemned Margaret Jones to"hang high on the gallows- tree"? |
| 36312 | Was that a_ playful_ moment? |
| 36312 | Was the former generation less truthful than his own? |
| 36312 | Was their perception of him nothing more than the product of the imagination of the witnesses? |
| 36312 | Was there any_ fraud_? |
| 36312 | Was there anywhere a prior institution of that kind? |
| 36312 | Were Braybrook''s statements true as to the main fact? |
| 36312 | Were all the declarations false? |
| 36312 | Were all those youthful females shockingly wicked? |
| 36312 | Were horses, vehicles, and drivers, or were even saddle- horses, regularly at the command of such girls for conveyance to and from such meetings? |
| 36312 | Were its senses less reliable? |
| 36312 | Were the external senses of a whole community so disordered that the character and dimensions of sensible acts were grossly misapprehended? |
| 36312 | Were these doings by Mather foolish and useless? |
| 36312 | What amount of success in alleviating the sufferings that flesh is heir to would invoke public vengeance? |
| 36312 | What beatings might she not well fear if she confessed to any dealings with invisible beings? |
| 36312 | What did he say you must do? |
| 36312 | What did he tell you?" |
| 36312 | What do you ride upon? |
| 36312 | What had you there? |
| 36312 | What harm have they done unto you? |
| 36312 | What if it was? |
| 36312 | What is fit treatment of such facts and testimony from such a source? |
| 36312 | What is_ he_ like? |
| 36312 | What miracle did he concede that the devil can work? |
| 36312 | What more common than for attendants to offer and urge upon a suffering and agonized person any stimulant or cordial at hand? |
| 36312 | What next? |
| 36312 | What persons would be summoned into court to testify concerning her when such was the charge? |
| 36312 | What qualities give better_ a priori_ promise of correct testimony than do sincerity and a sound understanding? |
| 36312 | What started, and extended, and intensified that tongue if it did wag? |
| 36312 | What then? |
| 36312 | What then? |
| 36312 | What then? |
| 36312 | What though all spectators failed to see the Indian? |
| 36312 | What though the agitation of Christendom brings its latent iniquities and impurities to the surface? |
| 36312 | What though the counterparts of publicans, sinners, and harlots float numerously into view? |
| 36312 | What unseen power? |
| 36312 | What was it like that got you to do it? |
| 36312 | What was the character of the Goodwin children themselves? |
| 36312 | What was their duty? |
| 36312 | What were the accusations against him? |
| 36312 | What were those feats? |
| 36312 | What would you have me do?'' |
| 36312 | What, therefore, must be done? |
| 36312 | What, therefore, was the historian''s necessity? |
| 36312 | What_ lies_ were or could be fabricated against such a woman, the nature of which the common sagacity of society there and then would not detect? |
| 36312 | What_ lies_ which the truthfulness of society there and then would not decline to repeat against her? |
| 36312 | When I ceased working upon my patient, her husband said,''Do you suppose you can affect_ me_ in the same way?'' |
| 36312 | When her master hath asked her( Tituba?) |
| 36312 | When she perceived and called out to some personage invisible to her companions, saying,"What cheer, old man?" |
| 36312 | Whence the excitement itself-- such excitement as could regard an accurate guess as necessarily the offspring of diabolical insight? |
| 36312 | Whence the impulse? |
| 36312 | Where are they? |
| 36312 | Where did they find him? |
| 36312 | Wherein lurks anything which indicates that the witnesses in this case stated anything that was not substantially true? |
| 36312 | Which is most dutiful to God and friendly to man? |
| 36312 | Which is most scientific? |
| 36312 | Which shall we do? |
| 36312 | Which? |
| 36312 | Which? |
| 36312 | Which? |
| 36312 | Which? |
| 36312 | Which? |
| 36312 | Who and what was he? |
| 36312 | Who but visible or audible spirits, proving themselves to be such, can give decisive response to that momentous question? |
| 36312 | Who first appeared to her? |
| 36312 | Who helped the little clergyman lift and hold the heavy gun? |
| 36312 | Who knows? |
| 36312 | Who knows? |
| 36312 | Who sees either mind, or the force by which an aching toe reports to the brain and excites the sympathy of the whole organism? |
| 36312 | Who sees electricity, magnetism, gravitation, attraction, cohesion, repulsion? |
| 36312 | Who was the prime mover? |
| 36312 | Who was"my Indian man"? |
| 36312 | Who, next to Powell, among those present at the manifestations, was most likely to have made a covenant with the Evil One? |
| 36312 | Why afraid of such result? |
| 36312 | Why call that a_ pretense_, and make her a liar? |
| 36312 | Why did any intelligent being, whether mortal or spirit, thus woefully invade and disturb the homes of able, honored, worthy Christian men? |
| 36312 | Why did n''t you take the words of your own witnesses as corroborative of the man''s statement? |
| 36312 | Why did the people of his time take his life? |
| 36312 | Why do you not tell us the truth? |
| 36312 | Why do you thus torment these poor children?'' |
| 36312 | Why not put some confidence in the words of this religiously educated girl? |
| 36312 | Why say_ pretended_? |
| 36312 | Why should they lead to, or rather why fix upon, the beloved and venerated Mrs. Nurse? |
| 36312 | Why was such a one an enterer of complaints against neighbors, whether high or low, good or bad? |
| 36312 | Why, said she, hadst not thee such a letter from such a man at such a time? |
| 36312 | Why? |
| 36312 | Why? |
| 36312 | With''eagerness of mind''she asked them,''Does she tell you what clothes I have on?'' |
| 36312 | Yes,_ what_ unseen power? |
| 36312 | Yes; who that baker whose cake raised the devil, and caused apparitions to become exceeding plenty? |
| 36312 | _ Ans._''What do I know? |
| 36312 | _ Ans._''Would you have me accuse myself?'' |
| 36312 | _ Beyond a doubt?_ Perhaps not in some minds. |
| 36312 | _ Mortal._"How do spirits materialize?" |
| 36312 | _ Q._ And what book did he bring, a great or little book? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ And what did he say to you when you made your mark? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ And when would he come then? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ But did he tell you the names of the other? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ But why did not you do so before? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Can you look upon these and not knock them down? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did he get it out of your body? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did he not make you write your name? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did he show you in the book which was Osburn''s and which was Good''s mark? |

| 36312 | _ Q._ Did he tell you where the nine lived? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did they do any hurt to you or threaten you? |

| 36312 | _ Q._ Did you go into that room in your own person, and all the rest? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did you promise him this when he first spake to you? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did you see any other marks in his book? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did you see the man that morning? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Did you write? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Do not those cats suck you? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Do not you see them? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Have you seen Good and Osburn ride upon a pole? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ How did you go? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ How did you pinch them when you hurt them? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ How do you hurt those that you pinch? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ How far did you go-- to what town? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ How long ago was this? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ How many marks do you think there was? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ How many times did you go to Boston? |

| 36312 | _ Q._ What clothes the little woman? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did he say to you then? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did he say you must do in that book? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did he say you must say? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did he then to you? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did these cats do? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did they say? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did this man say to you when he took hold of you? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What did you promise him? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What is the other thing that Goody Osburn hath? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What kind of clothes hath she? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What other creatures did you see? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What other pretty things? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What service do they expect from you? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What should you have done with it? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What sights did you see? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ What time of night? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ When did Good tell you she set her hand to the book? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ When did you see them? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ When? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Where did you go? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Where does it keep? |
| 36312 | _ Q._ Who came back with you again? |

| 36312 | _ The Examination of Martha Carrier, May 31, 1692._"_ Q._ Abigail Williams, who hurts you? |
| 36312 | _ The only charge proved!_ What can that mean? |
| 36312 | _ These shadows_(?) |
| 36312 | and especially why perpetrate such agonizing cruelties upon bright, lovely, and promising children? |
| 36312 | have they done unto you?" |
| 36312 | her course of fraud and imposture? |
| 36312 | her frolic? |
| 36312 | or of acts called witchcraft of old? |
| 36312 | or was it such lifting of Margaret Rule as had been sworn to? |
| 36312 | see the devil?" |
