12111 | Shall they come short of the high ideal of the past, falter and fail, if devotion and sacrifice are required of them? |
12111 | To what element in the Irish nature are we to attribute this joyous and illuminating gift? |

15469 | Absence, to us, is equally painful: but, if I had either stayed at home, or neglected my duty abroad, would not my Emma have blushed for me? |
15469 | Are these people mad; or, do they take me for quite a fool? |
15469 | But, what comfort could I have had, for two whole days, at Deal? |
15469 | Could even the oldest diplomatic character be drier? |
15469 | Did the Duke, or any of them, give him a house_ then_? |

15469 | Has Mrs. Cadogan got my Peer''s robe? |
15469 | Have we a nice church at Merton? |
15469 | Have you not Merton? |
15469 | I know but one; for, who can be like my Emma? |
15469 | I know, he likes to be with you: but, shall he have that felicity, and_ he_ deprive me of it? |
15469 | In short, she adores you; but, who does not? |
15469 | Is it so very uncommon for such near relations to have some similitude? |
15469 | Is my brother tired of Canterbury? |
15469 | Is your head man a good person, and true to our interest? |

13968 | *****_ From the same, 29th[ 7th?] |
13968 | --Has it, my Lords? |
13968 | And how did it break out? |
13968 | But are they less criminal, less rebellious against the Divine Majesty? |
13968 | But do we not know how seals are obtained in that country? |
13968 | But what do you think they did? |
13968 | But when the old man, frightened out of his wits, asked,"What is it he has bid for me?" |
13968 | Do we not know how those princes are imposed upon? |
13968 | Do we not know the subjection and thraldom in which they are held, and that they are obliged to return thanks for the sufferings which they have felt? |
13968 | For what else does a magistrate exist? |
13968 | How, then, is it possible for me to exist? |
13968 | I have no means; for I have not a subsistence.--How long shall I dwell upon my misfortunes?" |
13968 | I said unto myself,''What fidelity have they observed to their liege lord? |
13968 | It was in the year 1774[ 1773?] |
13968 | That, upon his recall of the said Middleton, he, in his instructions to the Resident Bristow, dated 23d of October, 1781[ 1782? |
13968 | What more can I say? |
13968 | What more can I say?" |
13968 | Who can complain, or dares to accuse? |
13968 | Why? |
13968 | Will he fly to the Mahomedan law? |
13968 | Will he fly to the Sophis, to the laws of Persia, or to the practice of those monarchs? |
13968 | Will he fly to the high magistracy of Asia to defend taking of presents? |
13968 | Will your Lordships submit to hear the corrupt practices of mankind made the principles of government? |
13968 | are they less hateful to man, whose opinions they ought to cultivate as far as they are just? |
13968 | what fidelity will they show unto me?'' |
13157 | And what are you learning there? |
13157 | 31 Killing and maiming cattle 83 It may be asked, why did not the Ulster members call the attention of Parliament to this state of things? |
13157 | And even granting for the sake of argument that this is wrong, is it fair to call it bribery? |
13157 | And if they do-- what then? |
13157 | And would a Roman Catholic Parliament and nation care to remain subject to a King of England whose title depended on his being a Protestant? |
13157 | But the question is, was Wolfe Tone right when he said that these were the only two possibilities; or is there a third one, and if so, what? |
13157 | But what was the result? |
13157 | Can Irish Protestants be accused of bigotry when they contend that these writers mean what they say? |
13157 | Can it be wondered that Elizabeth conceived the idea of imitating her sister''s policy and forming a"plantation"in the North? |
13157 | If other countries acted in a similar manner, how could the grievances of bygone centuries ever be forgotten? |
13157 | If that is so, what right has one man to a large farm when there are hundreds of others in a neighbouring town who have no land at all? |
13157 | In fact, how can a law be a law unless it is enforced? |
13157 | It may be asked, why did the Irish Parliament do nothing to stay this national ruin? |
13157 | Might not the mass of the people, whose native customs had been well nigh crushed out by civil wars, be persuaded to_ adopt_ the law of England? |
13157 | Now, if compensation is bribery, who was bribed? |
13157 | Proofreaders IS ULSTER RIGHT? |
13157 | The simple answer is, How could they do so? |
13157 | What influence for good could such a church have had upon the mass of the people? |
13157 | What is the use of having new land laws? |
13157 | What those means were, was explained by Gladstone himself:--"What is meant by boycotting? |
13157 | What would be said in England if a Tory landlord evicted a cottager for working for a Radical farmer? |
11917 | St. Peter, you say, holds the keys of heaven and hell? |
11917 | Well, how do you feel about Home Rule now that it seems to be really coming? |
11917 | Who,he cries with a burst of enthusiasm,"first penetrated into the heart of the enemy''s country? |
11917 | A beginning, it may be asked, of what? |
11917 | After one such resounding success, why, it was asked, not extend so evident a blessing to the rest of Ireland? |
11917 | Against whom are the shafts of malice chiefly directed? |
11917 | And Ireland? |
11917 | And afterwards? |
11917 | And now, it will perhaps be asked, what is one in sober seriousness to say to all this? |
11917 | Columba?" |
11917 | Could man or monarch do more? |
11917 | Even Edmund Burke-- the life- long and passionate friend of Ireland-- cried out in alarm"Will no one speak to that madman? |
11917 | Had it been intentionally or accidentally excluded? |
11917 | How much more then to the English Protestants of that day? |
11917 | How was it affected by this change of rulers? |
11917 | Practically, however? |
11917 | Was James to remain in Ireland and to be an Irish king? |
11917 | What Irishman does not feel proud that he lived in the days of Grattan? |
11917 | What follows? |
11917 | What is its future destined to be? |
11917 | Who did not remember him in the days of its burnings, wastings, and murders?" |
11917 | Who has not turned to him for comfort from the false friends and open enemies of Ireland? |
11917 | Who have kept it in submission? |
11917 | Who struck most terror into the enemy? |
11917 | Why was a harbinger of peace sent if only to be immediately recalled? |
11917 | Will it vanish away, will it pass into new phases, or will some form of it eventually receive the sanction of the nation? |
11917 | Will no one stop that madman Grattan?" |
11917 | Yet as regards Ireland itself what was the result? |
11917 | Yet which of these, with the doubtful exception of the last, can be said to have yet received anything like a fair meed of appreciation? |
11917 | exclaims Sir Charles Gavan Duffy, indignantly, can more unworthy statement be conceived? |
11917 | or was he merely to use Ireland as a stepping- stone to England? |
17929 | How would you like,he said to one of his officers,"to see Roman Catholic chaplains on board our ships of war?" |
17929 | What friend? |
17929 | And do we not even outnumber them at every one of the ports we have blockaded? |
17929 | Are we not able to cope anywhere with any force the enemy dares to send out against us? |
17929 | But he who goes forth to fight the battles of another State, what honour can victory itself afford to him? |
17929 | But when some of the ringleaders declared with oaths that they_ would_ have a boat, and would take one, he quietly said,"You will, will you?" |
17929 | Do you know that you may be answerable for every enemy you kill? |
17929 | Have we not all the enemy''s ports blockaded from Toulon to Flushing? |
17929 | He replied,"I do not think it necessary; she will do very well, and what would become of the convoy if we meet an enemy?" |
17929 | The_ Queen Charlotte_ immediately telegraphed to the fleet,"Are you ready?" |
17929 | Will you not allow me a few days-- a little time, to make my peace with God?" |
17929 | do not you know me?" |
17929 | gentlemen,"he exclaimed,"hang me directly? |
17929 | or how shall he be excused, if he attack the allies of his own country, whom, as such, he is bound on his allegiance to respect? |
17778 | And General French? |
17778 | Are you Mrs. Despard, General French''s sister? |
17778 | Can you tell me where the General is? |
17778 | General French? 17778 How, I ask, can the Cavalry perform its rôle in war until the enemy''s Cavalry is defeated and paralysed? |
17778 | Who is this General French? |
17778 | But do they appeal to the private? |
17778 | But suppose anything happened to Carleton? |
17778 | For what did it mean? |
17778 | Had he not seen it thirty years ago on an Egyptian desert, and practised its every form time and again on the African veldt? |
17778 | How does he manage to be the idol of his men? |
17778 | How is the mounted infantryman, lacking the_ elan_ and spirit of the cavalryman, to meet the situation? |
17778 | How often did one read"General French expressed himself as''fairly''well pleased with what he saw"? |
17778 | How then does he regard war? |
17778 | Or suppose that the main action was lost? |
17778 | Pointing to French, he asked his Colonel,"Of what value is that man?" |
17778 | Quite early in the campaign this inscription was found on the wall of a Boer farm house:"Why are we bound to win? |
17778 | What wonder if men called him"French the lucky?" |
17778 | Who so fit to materialise reforms as the man who had conceived them? |
17778 | Who was to carry out all these drastic alterations? |
17778 | Who was to write it? |
12961 | Am I convicted on the evidence of Corydon, who swears that I belonged to the Fenian Brotherhood in 1863? |
12961 | Am I to understand that I have not liberty to address the court as to why sentence should not be pronounced upon me? |
12961 | And who would now fill his place for them, even as bread- winner? |
12961 | But what were they to do? |
12961 | But why could I not live here? |
12961 | COSTELLO-- Would you allow me to state they enticed me from my allegiance to England; therefore she( America) is guilty of high treason? |
12961 | Can I speak for the sake of having an audience here to listen to me? |
12961 | Can every man in this court house lay his hand on his heart and say the same? |
12961 | Could it be a dream, or was this a reality? |
12961 | Do I speak for the satisfaction of hearing my own feeble voice? |
12961 | Do I understand you to refuse me that privilege? |
12961 | Does it do me any good to make these statements? |
12961 | Does that prove that I belonged to it in 1867? |
12961 | Every generation of our countrymen has suffered; and where is the Irish heart could stand by unmoved? |
12961 | For why? |
12961 | HALPIN-- Am I entitled to get the letter to have it destroyed, or is Price to have it, to do with it as he pleases? |
12961 | Had men lived to see the day when such a deed could be done? |
12961 | Have I not a right to complain that I should be consigned to a dungeon for life in consequence of a trumped- up case? |
12961 | I ask you, gentlemen, us reasonable men, if there be a shadow of a case against me? |
12961 | In God''s name-- if I may mention His holy name without sufficient reasons-- what affection should I have for England? |
12961 | Is there one single overt act proved against me; or have I violated any law for the violation of which I can be made amenable in this court? |
12961 | PRISONER-- What can I speak on? |
12961 | PRISONER-- What position do I stand in now, my lord? |
12961 | The blood of Tone, Fitzgerald, Emmett, and others has been shed-- how much good has it done the tyrant and the robber? |
12961 | Think you, my lords, that I would injure a living being-- that I would, of my own free accord, willingly touch a hair upon the head of any man? |
12961 | To what can I speak, if not to something connected with my case? |
12961 | Was it only_ reporters_ whose judgment could set aside the verdict of sworn jurors, endorsed by ermined judges? |
12961 | Was it to be admitted that newspaper reporters could be right in a case so awful, where twelve sworn jurors and two judges were wrong? |
12961 | Was not our Saviour sold for money, and His life sworn away by false witnesses? |
12961 | What a frightful imputation would public admission of that fact cast upon the twelve sworn jurors-- upon the two judges? |
12961 | What is the principle of that? |
12961 | What position do I stand in now? |
12961 | What was most needed to give force and power to the insurrectionary uprising in Ireland? |
12961 | What was the government to do? |
12961 | What was to be done? |
12961 | When the question was put, what was their answer? |
12961 | Where were the men who have stood in the dock-- Burke, Emmett, and others, who have stood in the dock in defence of their country? |
12961 | Why do I make these assertions? |
12961 | Why should I fear to die, innocent as I am of the charge which a prejudiced jury, assisted by perjured witnesses, found me guilty of? |
10693 | And what should be done if the Queen only may be with child? |
10693 | And what would be the situation of the country if the King should die, leaving a minor Queen? |
10693 | Asked the use of it? |
10693 | Asks if another march to Paris would be possible? |
10693 | But is there any hope that the French Government will venture to give us her_ appui_? |
10693 | Can any country be tranquil in which resident gentlemen can do such things? |
10693 | Could we, as mediators, propose to Turkey to cede Attica, Negropont, and other possessions she now holds? |
10693 | Do not you mean to recall Lord William?'' |
10693 | Had I talked with the Chairs about it? |
10693 | He asked what I meant to do with Elphinstone? |
10693 | He asked whether they were distinctly to understand that the Cabinet had decided upon the termination of the monopoly? |
10693 | He asked whom we proposed sending in his place? |
10693 | He can afford to pay something to the State, and why should he not? |
10693 | He said,''Well, what is your business?'' |
10693 | He says the question is,''Shall we permit the ruin of the Turkish Empire?'' |
10693 | How in the event of the birth of a child the_ de facto_ Sovereign is to be put aside? |
10693 | I doubt it, and if we pass a law to which the colonies are adverse, which they will regard as being_ no law_, how are we to execute it? |
10693 | I mentioned Salisbury''s motion for a Committee which is to be made on Monday next, and Lord Bathurst said''Shall we be alive then?'' |
10693 | I think it is clear that the invasion of India could not be attempted till the third year; but when should we begin to take precautions? |
10693 | Peel asked whether he presumed to call him a parasite? |
10693 | Sir A. asked if we would see Knighton? |
10693 | Soon afterwards, Sir W. Waller only being in the room, he suddenly put his hand to his breast, and said,''Good God, what is the matter? |
10693 | The Chief Justices will be asked whether, supposing the Queen to be pregnant at the death of the King, the next living heir would succeed? |
10693 | The Duke asked Hardinge what he thought as to taking Huskisson and Palmerston back again? |
10693 | The Governor of Bombay ought to be an Indian, but who is there? |
10693 | The King asked what sort of a man Lord Grey was? |
10693 | The King desired me to sit down, and asked me whether I had any expectation of the division of last night? |
10693 | The King said,''You heard what I said to the East India Company yesterday?'' |
10693 | The question is, Shall the masters resist? |
10693 | The question was what could be done with him? |
10693 | This is death?'' |
10693 | We asked whether the permanent occupation of Constantinople by Russia was to be submitted to? |
10693 | Where would they put me? |
10693 | Who could we get to replace him? |
10693 | Why adhere to him?'' |
10693 | _ July 7._ At quarter to six a messenger arrived from the Duke, to whom I sent yesterday my letter to Lord W. asking if I should send it? |
10693 | and would we willingly bring the frontiers of the Greek state into contact with our Ionian Islands? |
19115 | BARRACKS(? |
19115 | Barracks? |
19115 | Does not a form Deorwenta occur( though Mr. Walker has missed it) to show that the two names interacted? |
19115 | Latrines? |
19115 | Stabling(?))] |
19115 | The question is, to what date do they refer? |
19115 | What fort? |
19115 | What part of the ritual and what rites of Diana? |
19115 | Within it were five various rows of rooms mostly 15 feet square, with drains; some complicated masonry(? |
19115 | Work- rooms? |
1949 | * Why will ye still inquire, adding iniquity? |
1949 | Britain has rulers, and she has watchmen: why dost thou incline thyself thus uselessly to prate?" |
1949 | But why should I say more? |
13109 | Sir,--Will you be good enough to inform me whether the statement I give below is correct? 13109 Well, have not rents in England and Scotland been reduced quite as much, nay, more, than Irish rents since 1881? |
13109 | Again an important extract:--"This is Mr. Parnell''s language at Nottingham, but would he venture to use the same arguments in this country? |
13109 | And I know, too, that even a blackberry wine industry will not be quite safe till we have Home Rule; but is not that coming fast?" |
13109 | And has not the importation of dead meat from America, Australia, or New Zealand had something to do with it? |
13109 | And how could a couple of delicate ladies, say, till the ground with their own hands? |
13109 | And what power over the fortunes of others can be given to men who boycott a railway for political spite? |
13109 | Are our sympathies to be confined wholly to one class, and are the sorrows and the wrongs done to another not to count? |
13109 | Are these the minds to govern a great and honest country?] |
13109 | Besides, who would venture to take the vacant land? |
13109 | Can he give counter figures to those quoted above? |
13109 | Do the leaders of any movement whatsoever give a thought to the individual lives sacrificed to the success of the cause? |
13109 | Does that( if true) get over the dishonesty of selling for £ 600 a year what was really worth only 500? |
13109 | Furthermore, whose hands among the prominent leaders are free from the reflected stain of blood- money? |
13109 | How long is this farce to continue? |
13109 | Is this according to the law of elemental justice? |
13109 | These assertions are facts to which names and amounts can be given; and that question,_ Cui bono_? |
13109 | Who knows? |
13109 | Why should not some practical native, go over from home and see how it is all done? |
13109 | Will anybody deny that the Irish landlords are open to this great accusation and indictment? |
13109 | With such a formidable organisation as this, what individual would have the courage to stand out for abstract justice to a landlord? |
15074 | After this, who will trust the gratitude of a Common- wealth? |
15074 | And amongst them all, what will become of those fine Speculative Wits, who drew the Plan of this new Government, and who overthrew the old? |
15074 | And if he must justifie his own proceedings to their whole Body, how can he do it but by blaming their Representatives? |
15074 | And was not his fortune necessitous enough at all times, to catch at an impunity, which was baited with Rewards to bribe him? |
15074 | And where are then the principles of Vertue, Honour and Religion, which they would persuade the World, have animated their endeavours for the publick? |
15074 | But I would ask him in the first place, if an Appeal be to be made, to whom can the King Appeal, but to his People? |
15074 | But since there have been, how could the King complain more modestly, or in terms more expressing Grief, than Indignation? |
15074 | But what if he thinks not their Party fit to be intrusted, least they should employ it against his Person? |
15074 | But who shall Judge when it shall be proper to put an end to such a Parliament? |
15074 | Did his Majesty stifle the Plot when he offered them, or did they refuse to sound the depth of it, when they would not touch upon them? |
15074 | Had he not the benefit of so many Proclamations, to have come in before, if he then knew any thing worth discovery? |
15074 | How comes it to pass that our Author shuffles the two French Dutchesses together? |
15074 | Is he grown so purblind, that he can not distinguish Friends from Foes? |
15074 | Is she so quickly become an old acquaintance, that none of the politick assignations at her Lodgings are remembred? |
15074 | Now whose will be the fault in common reason, if the Allyances be not supported, and_ Tangier_ not relieved? |
15074 | Or why, after the execution of the Lord_ Stafford_, did the House of Commons stop at the other Lords, and not proceed to try them in their turns? |
15074 | T. Hanmer''s(?) |
15074 | What then would become of our ancient Privilege to be tryed_ per pares_? |
15074 | What were they before they were thus Angry? |
15074 | and incroaching into Soveraignty and Arbitrary Power themselves, while they seem''d to fear it from the King? |
15074 | and that the Exclusion must first pass? |
15074 | of which the one is an_ Italian_, the other a_ French_ Woman, and an_ English_ Dutchess? |
15074 | or more truly was it ever intended to be urged? |
15074 | or that his House of Commons should Fetter him beyond any of his Predecessors? |
15074 | or what way is left him to obviate the causes of such complaints for the future, but this gentle admonishment for what is past? |
15074 | or what would they be, could they make so firm an Interest in Court, that they might venture themselves in that bottom? |
15074 | or who counsel''d the dissolution of the Tripple League? |
15074 | who gave the rise to the present greatness of the_ French_? |
15830 | Ca n''t I do what I please with my own barn door? 15830 Do you hear that? |
15830 | How did you find out my name and address,asked Mr. Green? |
15830 | Is she a delegate: are all the children delegates? |
15830 | Is this not one of the boats to take over the delegates? |
15830 | What did Mr. Green say when he found that I had fled? |
15830 | What is that lady going to do with all these children? |
15830 | What street is this? |
15830 | Yes, but I saw her go in, and you shut the door behind her, and if she was not in the barn, what did you nail the door for? |
15830 | ''However much I may resemble your sister, you are aware that I am not her, and why take so much interest in one whom you never saw before?'' |
15830 | ''Why should you wish to set_ me_ free?'' |
15830 | ''Would you rather remain with your present mistress, than be free?'' |
15830 | An English gentleman near me said to his friend,"I ca n''t understand a word of what he says, but is it not good?" |
15830 | And who is more capable of understanding the human heart than the poet? |
15830 | Are you married?" |
15830 | As soon as Mr. Green had so far recovered as to be able to speak, he said,"Where am I, and what does this mean?" |
15830 | Bank[** typo? |
15830 | Brown?" |
15830 | But how is it with the American Slave? |
15830 | But you will ask, what has Thomas Carlyle to do with a visit to the Crystal Palace? |
15830 | How resolve to do so? |
15830 | Is this the right train?" |
15830 | Long after I had quitted the presence of the poet, the following lines of his were ringing in my ears:--"Wanderer, whither dost thou roam? |
15830 | May be typo? |
15830 | The lady by my side, and who had called my attention to the group, asked if I could tell what country this odd- looking gentleman was from? |
15830 | Thou and thy friend must be somewhat fatigued by this time, wo nt thou go in and take a little dinner with me?" |
15830 | To what region far away? |
15830 | Wanderer, whither would''st thou roam? |
15830 | What can present a more picturesque view, than two vessels at sea on a moonlight night, and within a few rods of each other? |
15830 | Where is my husband? |
15830 | Where is my luggage? |
15830 | Where on earth is a man without money more destitute? |
15830 | Who ever had a sounder taste, a more exact intellect than Dante? |
15830 | Who that thinks of these amazing changes can doubt of the progress that has been made? |
15830 | Who''s got my boy? |
15830 | [** Erratum: Whittier?] |
15830 | are these your pranks, To murder men and give God thanks? |
15830 | or who has ever tuned his harp more in favour of Freedom, than our own Whittier? |
14342 | ''Has the Church,''asks Father Shinnors,''increased her membership in the ratio that the population of the United States has increased? |
14342 | ( 414):--"But it wo n''t weaken it, or you would not be here?" |
14342 | ( 415):--"Is there any sense in which it wo n''t?" |
14342 | ( 416):--"But it is in the hope that it will strengthen your own Church that you propose it?" |
14342 | Are they, I would ask, satisfied with that character? |
14342 | But it may not be irrelevant to note that M. Desmolins, who, in his remarkable book,_ A quoi tient la superiorità © des Anglo- saxons_? |
14342 | But what do they represent? |
14342 | Can it be that to the Irish mind politics are, what Bulwer Lytton declared love to be,"the business of the idle, and the idleness of the busy"? |
14342 | Could we not learn something from a study of what our people were doing abroad? |
14342 | Could we not-- Unionists and Nationalists alike-- do something towards material progress without abandoning our ideals? |
14342 | Had they business capacity? |
14342 | Had they commercial experience or business education? |
14342 | Had we not better look around and see how other countries with more or less analogous conditions fared? |
14342 | How could they trust the Committee they were asked to elect from amongst themselves to expend their money and conduct their business? |
14342 | If business, why was it not self- supporting? |
14342 | Influences of Religion in Ireland What is Toleration? |
14342 | It was naturally asked-- did Irish farmers possess the qualities out of which co- operators are made? |
14342 | Now, of what do the forces opposed to Home Rule consist? |
14342 | Protestantism in Irish Life Roman Catholicism and Economics Power of the Roman Catholic Clergy Has it been Abused? |
14342 | Ruthlessly deprived of education, are they to be blamed if they did not use the newly acquired facilities to the best advantage? |
14342 | The Irish had the man, what mattered the principles? |
14342 | The North has prospered under the Act of Union-- why should it be ready to enter upon a new''variety of untried being''? |
14342 | The promoters-- they were not putting anything into the scheme-- how much did they intend to take out? |
14342 | What are your qualifications as a cook any way?'' |
14342 | What shall I do?'' |
14342 | Why did you give up riding and take to cooking? |
14342 | Why would n''t I?" |
14342 | Why would n''t she? |
14342 | [ 8] Hence the evergreen query,''What shall we do with our boys?'' |
14342 | he replied,''why, do n''t you know I''ve got varicose veins?'' |
19434 | Was there ever such an unmitigated mistake in any Cabinet as that man? 19434 Bruce? |
19434 | Do you ever see his name even so much as mentioned in Parliamentary debates? |
19434 | Has the Central Working Men''s Club lost its cunning? |
19434 | What great measures has he succeeded in passing? |
19434 | What would Mr. Strahan or Mr. Macmillan not give to have the command of such a host? |
19434 | When has he ever made any brilliant speeches? |
19434 | Who would ever dream of finding a foundry on the Isis, or a factory on the Cam? |
19434 | Why has the experiment not been repeated? |
1972 | What is your name? |
1972 | Who,said the boy,"instructed you to do this?" |
1972 | Cair gurcoc( Anglesey?). |
1972 | For what wise man will resist the wholesome counsel of God? |
1972 | The boy, going on with his questions, asked the wise men what was in it? |
1972 | Then St. Germanus, addressing him, said"Dost thou believe in the Holy Trinity?" |
1972 | Then the boy said to the king,"Why have your servants brought me hither?" |
1972 | Upon this, the messengers diligently inquired of the mother and the other boys, whether he had had a father? |
1972 | Vortigern inquired of his wise men the cause of this opposition to his undertaking, and of so much useless expense of labour? |
1972 | asked the king;"I am called Ambrose( in British Embresguletic),"returned the boy; and in answer to the king''s question,"What is your origin?" |
17300 | For a moment,writes B.-P.,"the thought crosses one''s mind, shall we stop to fire or go for them? |
17300 | May it not be that our toys are the various media adapted to individual tastes through which men may know their God? 17300 What on earth made you go and get drunk?" |
17300 | And what of his enthusiasm? |
17300 | And, more important question, how can men with such an officer ever grow enthusiastic about soldiering, or even content with their lot? |
17300 | Asked,"Do you know why so- and- so, and so- and- so?" |
17300 | But did they waver or turn back? |
17300 | But how few of the people we love to read about in the airy realm of fiction, or the still airier realm of history, really possess our hearts? |
17300 | Could a Briton do more? |
17300 | Granted the excitement of a fast burst over a grass country, and that you are well carried by your horse, the end-- what is it? |
17300 | Has he a chance, bar his cunning, of baffling his pursuers? |
17300 | How could a man feel unhappy with the whole of his wardrobe packed away in one wallet of the saddle, and his larder in the other? |
17300 | If there is interest in Baden- Powell''s score as a schoolboy- marksman, how much greater interest should there be in Baden- Powell''s hit as orator? |
17300 | If, then, it was the prospect of thus pleasing you that sustained me in my task, to whom else can I more fittingly inscribe the fruits of my labour? |
17300 | Now, how can an officer who soldiers in this dull, stupid fashion ever gain the affection of his men? |
17300 | One dog killed"? |
17300 | Remember him? |
17300 | Stories about him? |
17300 | Then where the----_ am_ I to smoke?" |
17300 | To the question,"How long can you hold out?" |
17300 | Touching B.-P. upon the shoulder with his white cotton glove, the constable demanded, in a deep voice,"Arnd, whaät''s the matter wi''you, eh?" |
17300 | What was it that struck his attention most about the tempting work of searching Prempeh''s palace for treasure? |
17300 | When men opened their newspapers in the railway carriage it was with the remark,"How''s old B.-P. getting along?" |
17300 | Who but a general favourite could have played the following part? |
17300 | Will you believe it, that the commonest way of spending the afternoon in cavalry regiments is by going to bed? |
17300 | at what time do rats run about?" |
17300 | exclaimed the volunteer soldier,"not smoke on sentry? |
20924 | ? |
20924 | | offering? |
20967 | Gentlemen,( says he,) what are ye doing? |
19130 | 51 WHAT WAS STONEHENGE? |
19130 | And whence came this powerful dominant race? |
19130 | But what have Saracens to do with Wiltshire? |
19130 | How came they in their present position? |
19130 | Is there anything else to see? |
19130 | Raising the Foreign Stones 49 WHEN WAS STONEHENGE ERECTED? |
19130 | THE BUILDING OF STONEHENGE The question is often asked,"How did they build Stonehenge?" |
19130 | The foremost question will surely be"How shall I get to Stonehenge?" |
19130 | The question naturally arises how were they worked? |
19130 | There are many millstones and gateposts in Wiltshire, but where is there one which corresponds in any way to the upright Foreign Stones at Stonehenge? |
19130 | WHAT WAS STONEHENGE? |
19130 | WHEN WAS STONEHENGE ERECTED? |
19130 | Were they tall or short, dark or fair? |
19130 | What are these objects? |
19130 | What manner of man was it who went armed with the bronze dagger and wore the ornaments above described? |
19130 | Where have the stones come from? |
19130 | _ Glanconitic Sandstone_( possibly Upper Greensand? |
19130 | whence the so- called foreign stones were obtained? |
15306 | Does that make you feel safe? |
15306 | Even with the new rifle? |
15306 | How came it, man of straw, that in Armageddon there was none greater than you? |
15306 | Let''s see,he asked;"Presbyterian?--how do you spell it?" |
15306 | What does it matter,he exclaimed impatiently,"what we pay those boys as long as we win the war?" |
15306 | After a victory so tremendous, was there any demand on the generosity of men''s souls which would not gladly have been granted? |
15306 | And why were Mr. Lloyd George and Mr. Winston Churchill silent? |
15306 | And yet who does not feel the greatness of Napoleon?--and who does not suspect the shallowness of Mr. Lloyd George? |
15306 | But how is it that this politician has attained even to such super- prominence? |
15306 | But what happens? |
15306 | Did he not strike a death blow at Germany when he secured, with a suddenness which ruined his rivals in the field, the wool- clip of the world? |
15306 | Does it matter if they shoot you, or hang you, or send you to the Tower, so long as England is saved?" |
15306 | Has he not been an honest man at the head of a department where dishonesty had its chief opportunity? |
15306 | How many men who entered the House of Commons with no ideas at all have been taken to the friendly bosom of that assembly? |
15306 | How was it that his greatness, that is to say his greatness of personality, made so pitiable an end? |
15306 | I should say that he has only one question to ask of fate before he strips for a fight-- is this thing going to be Success or Failure? |
15306 | If he had had his way with the War Office could Germany have been stopped from reaching Paris and seizing the Channel ports? |
15306 | If men would ask themselves, before they rush out to seek her, What is Pleasure? |
15306 | Is it too late for him to acquire strength of character? |
15306 | Is there not a danger that we may fall into the American position, and have our great men in commerce and our second- rate men in politics? |
15306 | Is there one man in these islands who thought for a moment that the overplus of stores would fetch a sum of £ 800,000,000? |
15306 | Let each man ask himself, Is my direction worthy of man''s past and hopeful for his future? |
15306 | Moreover, if he had had his way, could he himself have hoped to escape hanging on a lamp- post? |
15306 | Now, do you feel safe?" |
15306 | Suppose war did not come after all, how were those millions to be met? |
15306 | Then, in 1896 he said to himself,"Why should n''t steam be used in the coasting trade?" |
15306 | Was there ever a greater opportunity in statesmanship? |
15306 | What can become of such a movement save eventual corruption? |
15306 | What did he do? |
15306 | What did it matter what the war cost so long as victory was won? |
15306 | What has been Lord Inverforth''s reward from the public? |
15306 | What power in the world is greater, controlled by moral principle? |
15306 | What power so dangerous, when moral earnestness ceases to inspire the feelings? |
15306 | What was lacking that this indubitable greatness should have been so easily brayed in the mortar of politics? |
15306 | What''s the good of something you ca n''t see?" |
15306 | Whenever he was in conflict with Socialists he would say to them,"Why do n''t you buy me out and run the mines yourselves? |
15306 | Where was the new world, then? |
15306 | While others are crying,"How shall we save ourselves?" |
15306 | Why did he not speak when the hounds were in full cry? |
15306 | Why was Mr. Asquith silent? |
15306 | Why was Sir Edward Grey silent? |
15306 | Why was he silent? |
15306 | With a twinkle in his eyes, and in a soft inquiring voice,"Have you ever tried to buy glycerine from him?" |
15306 | exclaimed Mr. H.,"good heavens, I was n''t joking; how do I know that to- morrow he will not be the editor of the_ Daily Mail_?" |
15306 | he exclaimed;"but is n''t he the man who is being attacked by the newspapers?" |
18254 | Will you give me your hands upon it as men of honour? |
18254 | Will you two,then asked the King,"say you have still attachment to me?" |
18254 | And though I had gone away with some more than ordinary, who can blame me when designs of murdering me was made appear? |
18254 | And, if any of them did me the favour to come along with me, must that be called being in arms? |
18254 | Borrowing the words of Samuel,"What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?" |
18254 | But are the offences which can be fairly laid to Claverhouse''s account of such a kind? |
18254 | But is this unswerving standard possible as a gauge of human actions? |
18254 | Hæcne mihi meriti persolvis præmia tanti? |
18254 | The Bishops? |
18254 | Was this strong Samson, men asked, to fall a prey at last to a Whiggish Delilah? |
18254 | We were ordered to see how such commissions had been[ drawn?] |
18254 | What, he asked, did Lochiel advise? |
18254 | When they had got there the King asked them, how came they still to be with him when all the world had forsaken him for the Prince of Orange? |
18254 | Who then shall be safe? |
18821 | Do n''t you wish you may get it? |
18821 | Why not? |
18821 | All in a moment the thought arose--"Why not borrow the park and give a pic- nic for the hospital?" |
18821 | And who, think ye, gentle readers, is now Editor of_ The Journal_? |
18821 | He came to me after the cloth was cleared, and said,"Did n''t I see you at Vince''s Chapel last night?" |
18821 | I ask the landlord-- for such the man is-- if there are any relics of Cobbett remaining in the house? |
18821 | In an instant came the crushing retort from Edmonds,"Ho, you ham, his you?" |
18821 | In some confusion, Edmonds turned round, and, his mind being somewhat uncollected, he asked,"What say you, Mr. Foreman, are you guilty or not guilty?" |
18821 | Is there really anything antithetic or antagonistic in poverty and honesty? |
18821 | Jones?" |
18821 | M.?" |
18821 | Pay? |
18821 | Smith?" |
18821 | Still Gillott persevered, and at length startled the artist by asking,"What''ll you take for the lot in this room?" |
18821 | The King dead? |
18821 | This seemed to amuse him, and he asked,"Well, what is it?" |
18821 | Why should not the Muntzes become a family of equal position in England? |
18821 | Will you call again in an hour?" |
18821 | _ Quid rides?_"Bond Street, July 2, 1823." |
14443 | Ah, but--interrupted the incautious Wolmer--"could they not send envoys who were unpaid?" |
14443 | Ah, but,said Mr. Morley,"did you not"--meaning Mr. Goschen--"did you not yourself attack Lord Salisbury for that very speech?" |
14443 | Who is the third- rate politician? |
14443 | And first, why is it that so few members of the House of Commons can pronounce that word correctly? |
14443 | And now the moment of Nemesis and triumph has come, and is he going to fall below the level of the great hour? |
14443 | And what support had Lord Spencer against all these foes-- before him, around him-- on all sides of him? |
14443 | And yet who can not listen to him for ten minutes without a sense of a great mind-- and what to me is better, a fine character behind it all? |
14443 | But still, if there be a majority, what is it going to be?--disastrously near defeat, or near enough to moral strength as to mean nothing? |
14443 | But when he sits down, is there any human being that feels a bit the wiser or the better for what he has said? |
14443 | Can he stand the strain?--will he break down from sheer physical fatigue and the exhaustion of long waiting? |
14443 | Do you suppose that every member of the Liberal party loves Mr. Asquith, and is delighted when he displays his great talents? |
14443 | For instance, he puts the question to Lord Wolmer, if he seriously means that the Irish Legislature is not to have the right to petition? |
14443 | How was Mr. Gladstone going to make a speech which would fulfil those extremely diverse purposes? |
14443 | I suppose I shall be considered very fantastic-- but do you know what I thought of at that very moment? |
14443 | In favour of 103 members? |
14443 | Mr. Russell declared that he heard the phrase across the floor,"What the devil are you saying?" |
14443 | Or was it that he had had to sit for several hours the day before at a Cabinet Council? |
14443 | The currency-- who cares about the currency now? |
14443 | Then there was the United States; what was there to prevent the Irish Executive from sending an envoy to the United States? |
14443 | They might be repentant sinners, but who so great a prodigal as the member for Birmingham? |
14443 | This was all clear enough; but what about the position of all the other parties in the House? |
14443 | Was Jimmy put down? |
14443 | What constitutes the greatest of all Parliamentary triumphs? |
14443 | What have the Government to fear in this matter? |
14443 | What will it say? |
14443 | Where be now the hysterics about private members and simple issues and small questions? |
14443 | Who but he could fail to have noticed the contrast, and noticing, who but he could remain so loftily unobservant and unimpressed? |
14443 | Why were all these lips dumb? |
14443 | Why were not all the sophistries brushed away, by which the conspirators against the Government were hiding the real effect and purpose of the votes? |
14443 | Why were these scattered and young and inexperienced troops not told, by their leaders, of the vast issues involved in this coming vote? |
14443 | Why? |
14443 | Would it not be possible for the Government, asked Sir Charles, to adopt the proposal with regard to their measures? |
14443 | [ Sidenote: Which is the buffoon?] |

19329 | A trunk,answered Pat,"an''for what, yerra?" |
19329 | And meself go naked, is it? 19329 For how could river, lake, and sea In softer sister hues agree? |
19329 | Pat,said the merchant,"you''re going to travel; will you buy a trunk?" |
19329 | Why do you dare chase my stag? |
19329 | And when will summer kiss awake Lovelier flowers by lawn or brake? |
19329 | And where is the beauty that once was thine? |
19329 | He was ushered into the presence of a courteous official, who was a little astonished to be authoritatively asked,"Who are you?" |
19329 | Or brighter berries blush between Foliage of a fresher green?" |
19329 | Or hills of passionate purple glow Far and near more proudly flow? |
19329 | Then the Roundhead general said, Fingering his sword-- Art thou coming to be we d, Like a heathen lord? |
19329 | When your lover whispered low--"Shall I stay or shall I go, Kathaleen?" |

18682 | Are not the_ Hanse_ townes ashamed to maintaine and pretend a priuiledge, that is to say, a priuate lawe against a publike and soueraigne lawe? |
18682 | But what? |
18682 | Did he not openly pronounce that course of theirs altogether vnlawfull? |
18682 | Did he then chastise those his ministers being returned into Spaine, as transgressers of his pleasures? |
18682 | Did hee detaine from them all rewards and preferments, as hauing ill deserued them? |
18682 | May hee be taken for a man of a good spirit,& of no poysoned minde against her Maiestie? |
18682 | hath he blamed the auctours of such facts, and excused himself to the Queene? |
18682 | whither should the long and sacred quiet of the Romane Empire haue gone to hide it selfe? |
18682 | will the inhabitants of the Hanse Townes pretend that they knewe not the Queene of Englands pleasure? |
18682 | would you suffer the cloke of popish religion and obedience, to exempt such traytors from the seueritie of Iustice? |

16559 | HOW IS OLD IRELAND AND HOW DOES SHE STAND? |
16559 | O''Donnell Abooas our national anthem? |
16559 | Presbyterian Government,was there a call for this at Ballinahinch? |
16559 | Well, Mr. Denvir, what can I do for you? |
16559 | What do you complain of? |
16559 | After they had heard him patiently, an old man, the spokesman, said:"Tell me-- do you have Prodestans in this Society of yours?" |
16559 | And a Rebel? |
16559 | And why not? |
16559 | Are you not going to stay for the banquet?" |
16559 | At last he had it--"Oh"he said,"You would be a son of Margaret O''Loughlin?" |
16559 | Charles Russell was too wary, and, perhaps, too far- seeing, who can tell? |
16559 | Commins?" |
16559 | Fenianism.--What did it do for Ireland? |
16559 | He asked Mr. Thomas Gregson, his private secretary, a friend of mine: Who had written this review? |
16559 | Hearing of Father Mathew''s visit, he asked how many of the boys would go to Crown Street to"take the pledge"--their parents being willing? |
16559 | Hogan''s counsel produced a similar revolver, and asked the witness if he could identify it as his manufacture? |
16559 | How is it that the sons of the men of 1782 and of Grattan''s Parliament, and of 1798 were not as good Irishmen as their fathers? |
16559 | How, he asked, could he or any man put bounds to the progress of a nation? |
16559 | It may be asked, after all, what did Fenianism do for Ireland? |
16559 | John Barry once told me that a friend of his asked one of these how they could live in such places? |
16559 | K. Kehoe, Inspector Lawrence.--Did he shut his eyes in my case? |
16559 | Parnell, noticing, I suppose, that I seemed uneasy about something, asked,"What''s amiss with you, Denvir?" |
16559 | Second, is it practicable? |
16559 | Shall we go to Denvir?" |
16559 | The prosecuting counsel asked:--"How do you know it is yours?" |
16559 | Then, as they came in sight of the famous plain itself, a man struck up:-- Where will they have their camp? |
16559 | Was this a premonition that his end was near? |
16559 | What, however, are the reflections which bring encouragement? |
16559 | Where could he see them? |
16559 | Why was the bitter feud over the leadership of the Irish Party so long kept up? |
16559 | Why was the happy reconciliation so long delayed? |
16559 | With the active personal help and the prayers of a saintly man like Father McGrath how could we lose? |
16559 | You will ask what became of him? |
16559 | and I have heard her exclaiming, I at the time believing it most implicitly:"Sin, is it? |
16559 | and"What''s my Thought Like?" |
16559 | when he asked, as he took my hand,"Where are you going, Denvir? |
21411 | There was for many years in the centre of the Square an obelisk with the inscription,"Obtusum Obtusioris Ingenii Monumentum Quid me respicis viator? |
16913 | Have I? |
16913 | Is this, too, mine? |
16913 | Our commander, our master, our father, our friend, our companion, is no more, and when shall we behold his equal? 16913 Will you, my dear Hardy?" |
16913 | Are these things to be tolerated? |
16913 | But, what shall I say, if Prince Luzzi has authorized this man to enter La Vilette, and to communicate with the enemy? |
16913 | Can any thing compensate, to his family, the loss of such a brother? |
16913 | Can it be real_?" |
16913 | Captain Troubridge then asked this plain question--"If Lord Nelson breaks the armistice, will your eminence assist him in the attack of the castles?" |
16913 | Could I have thought it; and, from Earl Spencer? |
16913 | I say, he has, while I have one; what say you?" |
16913 | If it should cause an insurrection in Naples, which did not succeed, would it not be worse? |
16913 | If the Foudroyant is not ready, or in a state to fetch your lordship, what are your wishes? |
16913 | Is it for the interest, is it for the honour, of the country, that they should not as speedily as possible be redressed? |
16913 | Is it to be borne? |
16913 | Our situation here is quiet; but who can say, if the French get into our neighbourhood, that we shall remain so? |
16913 | Soon afterwards, his lordship asked--"Think you, that the British fleet has quitted Bornholm? |
16913 | Then, as if asking the question, he repeated--"Doctor, I have not been a great sinner?" |
16913 | What are your ideas of the king''s going into the Bay of Naples, without foreign troops? |
16913 | What will his lordship say, when he reads the passports? |
16913 | When shall we once more see our dear children?" |
16913 | Who, then, shall say, on a just consideration of these indisputable facts, that this great man was amply rewarded by his country? |
16913 | Why did he not take possession of them? |
16913 | Why will your highness be thus led astray by evil counsellors; who can have no other object in view, but your ruin? |
16913 | Would they have delivered them up to the then overpowered besiegers? |
16913 | Would you dare to disturb him?" |
16913 | said the merchant,"do you want it for the great Lord Nelson?" |
20897 | But what would our populace, in our epoch, have actually learned if they had learned all that our schools and universities had to teach? |
20897 | I fully accept the truth in Mr. Kipling''s question of"What can they know of England who only England know?" |
20897 | If a man has a right to choose his wife, has he not a right to choose wrong? |
20897 | If a man has a right to vote, has he not a right to vote wrong? |
20897 | What did they believe of their fathers? |
20897 | What forced her into it? |
20897 | What would the guttersnipe have learnt as a graduate, except to embrace a Saxon because he was the other half of an Anglo- Saxon? |
20897 | Who was St. Thomas, to whose shrine the whole of that society is thus seen in the act of moving; and why was he so important? |
20897 | Why, for instance, are they called Canterbury Tales; and what were the pilgrims doing on the road to Canterbury? |
15537 | Do you assent? |
15537 | If the marshall of the host bids us do anything,he said,"shall we do it if it be against the great captain? |
15537 | What care the clergy though Gill sweat, Or Jack of the Noke? 15537 Who does cite me?" |
15537 | [ 720] Thus, therefore, with much regret the council decided-- and, in fact, why should they have decided otherwise? 15537 And he said who were they? 15537 And is it not time to have an end in seven years? 15537 And now, what should the clergy have done? 15537 And will ye know who it is? 15537 Can we suppose that he designed to dupe Henry into submission by a promise which he had predetermined to break? 15537 Did any twinge of remorse, any pang of painful recollection, pierce at that moment the incense of glory which she was inhaling? 15537 Had the meaning of that awful figure hanging on the torturing cross suddenly revealed itself? 15537 If he was persuaded that Henry''s cause_ was_ good, why did he in the following year pronounce finally for Catherine? 15537 If it be bad, why will you not say that it is bad, so to hinder a prince to whom you are so much bounden from longer continuing with it? 15537 Is it likely that he was in Italy on such an occasion in the interval? 15537 May we not justly be ashamed of ourselves? 15537 On the other hand, what object at such a time can be conceived for falsehood? 15537 Quid aliud quam quod decuit Christianissimum regem? 15537 Quid deinceps egit? 15537 The king demanded who they were? 15537 The question was this:''Master Latimer, do you not think, on your conscience, that you have been suspected of heresy?'' 15537 To the question, if ever it was asked, May I not do what I will with my own? 15537 We find only an effort to express again the old exhortation of the Wise Man--Will you hear the beginning and the end of the whole matter? |
15537 | What comyn folke is so mighty, so strong in the felde, as the comyns of England?" |

15537 | [ 630] Extraordinary as it must seem, the pope certainly bound himself by this engagement: and who can tell with what intention? |
15537 | _ If_ I may kill a man to prevent him from robbing my friend, why may I not deceive a man to save my friend from being barbarously murdered? |
15537 | and why throughout Europe were the ultramontane party, to a man, on Catherine''s side? |
15537 | the prior inquired; and where was he at that time? |
15537 | why had he imperilled so needlessly the interests of the papacy in England? |
15537 | why had his conduct from the beginning pointed steadily to the conclusion at which he at last arrived? |
18209 | ''Ah, Señor Oquendo,''said the Duke as the heroic Biscayan stepped on board,''que haremos?'' |
18209 | ''Would you have the Archbishop of Canterbury alter the Liturgy?'' |
18209 | ( what shall we do?) |
18209 | A crowd of vessels large and small was collected in the Scheldt, for what purpose save to transport an army into England? |
18209 | But how could it decently be done? |
18209 | But how long was all this to last? |
18209 | But was it so? |
18209 | But what could the English Queen be about? |
18209 | Come they did, but who were they? |
18209 | Could none of them be found to recollect their oaths and take the law into their own hands? |
18209 | Did not she and her people quake? |
18209 | Did she know the King of Spain''s force? |
18209 | Did she not know that she existed only by the forbearance of Philip? |
18209 | Did they dare to go in with him and destroy them? |
18209 | Go in? |
18209 | How did it come about? |
18209 | Was it so wrong to hoist the engineer with his own petard? |
18209 | Was it so? |
18209 | Was it wrong of Hamlet to finger the packet of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and rewrite his uncle''s despatch? |
18209 | Was there that wide disposition to welcome an invading army in so large a majority of the nation? |
18209 | What else was he going out for? |
18209 | Where and how did these mariners learn their trade? |
18209 | Where did these ships come from? |
18209 | Where was it? |
18209 | Where were all those eager champions who had signed the Association Bond, who had talked so loudly? |

13132 | Were you ever in love, Davis? |
13132 | What better can he do than inquire, if he is in doubt? |
13132 | And what purpose does it serve now? |
13132 | And what should be our reply? |
13132 | But on what ground, then, shall we find agreement, the recognition of which Irish Citizenship implies? |
13132 | But what is the secret of strength? |
13132 | But who can hope for this final peace while any part of our independence is denied? |
13132 | Can anyone doubt from this sign of the times alone that the hour points to freedom, and we are on the road to victory? |
13132 | Certain things are obvious, but how many see what is below the surface? |
13132 | Do we not have set debates with speakers appointed on each side? |
13132 | Does anyone suppose we can start a fight for freedom without making that danger a grimmer reality? |
13132 | Had revenge in this instance any other effect than to increase, instead of diminishing, the mass of malice and evil already existing in the world? |
13132 | Has he ever realised the promise of his proposals? |
13132 | How is the woman training for to- morrow? |
13132 | How is this? |
13132 | How, then, will the man stand by that very binding relationship? |
13132 | How? |
13132 | II The ubiquitous pseudo- practical man, petulant and critical, will at once arise:"What is the use of discussing arms in Ireland? |
13132 | In the crisis how does his wife act? |
13132 | Is it not strange, that it has become necessary to ask and answer this question? |
13132 | Is not the attitude on both sides evidence of the danger? |
13132 | Let the enemy count his dreadnoughts and number off his legions-- where are now the legions of Rome and Carthage? |
13132 | Mr. Angell writes:"What in the name of common sense is the advantage of conquering them if the only policy is to let them do as they like?" |
13132 | Shall we honour the flag we bear by a mean, apologetic front? |

13132 | Then there is the irreconcilable-- how is he regarded in the common cry? |
13132 | These social missiles are flying in all directions, always gracious and flattering, never challenging and rude-- who can withstand them? |
13132 | V If we so understand intellectual freedom, in what does its denial consist? |
13132 | Was not the pretext for this latter system of spoliation derived immediately from the former? |
13132 | What ensues? |
13132 | What in a political assembly is often the first thing to note? |
13132 | What is his attitude? |
13132 | What is its value as a force? |
13132 | What is the weakness? |
13132 | What prevents ye going out to begin?" |
13132 | What surly man would resent sympathy? |
13132 | What then of the places where men of diverging views meet; do we abjure the flag? |
13132 | What, then, is the true basis to our claim to freedom? |
13132 | What, then, will uplift him if he has been a waverer in principle as well as in fact? |
13132 | When the need is greatest, should the practice be less urgent? |
13132 | Where are now the empires of antiquity? |
13132 | Who can claim it a wise policy merely for the moment to dodge it? |
13132 | Who, then, can hope for peace where into the strife is imported a race difference, where the division is not of party but of people? |
13132 | Why avail of all the Local Government machinery?" |
13132 | Why is he found wanting? |
13132 | Why then recognise the County Councils created by Bill at Westminster? |
13132 | Why then use English coins and stamps? |
13132 | Will clinging arms hold him back or proud ones wave him on? |
13132 | Would she not ignore us if it were quite safe so to do? |
13132 | XI What, then, to conclude, must be our decision? |
13132 | Yes, but cries an objector,"Why plead for friendship with England, who will have peace only on condition of her supremacy?" |
13132 | Yet, we must take our flag everywhere? |

14326 | But if success is not the test, what is? |
14326 | But was eloquent persuasion really required at such a moment to still the voice of faction in the British House of Commons? |
14326 | But what majority? |

14326 | Had she been captured by a destroyer from Pembroke, or overhauled, pirate as she was without papers, by Customs officials from Rosslare? |
14326 | Had the Government any policy in regard to Ulster? |
14326 | Had the War Office made up its mind what to do with General Gough and the other cavalry officers when they arrived in London? |
14326 | Had the time come when they ought to put forward in Parliament an alternative policy to the absolute rejection of the Bill? |
14326 | Had they considered how they could deal with the threatened resistance? |
14326 | How are you going to overcome that resistance? |
14326 | Is it the aim of the men who resist? |
14326 | Is the Treaty to be construed as Britain pleases, and always to the prejudice of the weaker side? |
14326 | No? |

14326 | Well, then, what was their authority? |
14326 | What answer from the North? |
14326 | What is a recompense fair and meet? |
14326 | What is their reward? |
14326 | What was the reason? |
14326 | Where is your car? |
14326 | Where there was no law establishing military service for Ireland, what"alteration or regulation"respecting such a law can legally bind? |
14326 | Where, then, lies the basis of the claim that they can be forced to take them up for the defence of others? |

13112 | But now that the American government had forbidden the fight in Canada, what was to be done? |
13112 | Can I not promise for one, for two, for three, aye for hundreds?" |
13112 | Can any two principles be more distinct from each other? |
13112 | Could there be a conspiracy for a common object by such antagonistic means? |
13112 | Did he suppose that seven months of imprisonment had so broken my spirit, as well as my health, that I would be an easy prey to his blandishments? |
13112 | Does the sentence of death, which your unhallowed policy inflicts on my body, condemn my tongue to silence and my reputation to reproach? |
13112 | Everywhere there were strength, and numbers, and resolution; where were they now in the supreme hour of the country''s agony? |
13112 | He asked the insurgent leader whether, if the police surrendered, any harm would be done to them? |
13112 | I would like to know if all that does not apply to war as well as to revolution? |
13112 | Is it to be supposed I''d put my liberty into the hands of such a character? |
13112 | Is such his intention?" |
13112 | Is this justice? |
13112 | Is this manly? |
13112 | Is this right? |
13112 | It is alleged that I wished to sell the independence of my country; and for what end? |
13112 | John, would you not give your Catholic fellow- countrymen the same rights that you enjoy yourself?" |
13112 | My wife at the moment said--''Had I not better burn the letter?'' |
13112 | O''Donovan was asked, what he had to say in reference to that part of the case? |
13112 | Oh, my country, was it personal ambition that could influence me? |
13112 | On this melancholy case the comment of the editor of the_ United Irishman_ was as follows:--"Now what became of poor Boland''s twenty acres of crop? |
13112 | Or rather, why insult justice, in demanding of me why sentence of death should not be pronounced against me? |
13112 | The poet Dante consigned traitors to, I believe, the ninth circle of hell; but what kind of traitors? |
13112 | Was it a change of masters? |
13112 | Was not the time for hustings orations, and parliamentary agitation over now? |
13112 | Was this the object of my ambition? |
13112 | What had become of James Stephens? |
13112 | What is death? |
13112 | What of that charge? |
13112 | Where now should they find the Moses to lead them from the land of captivity? |
13112 | Why did your lordships insult me? |
13112 | Why should I feel regret? |
13112 | Why then, I say, should I feel regret? |
13112 | Why? |

20619 | May I ask you, during how many years your dear, heroic brother had it with him? |

20619 | Splendid advice, but would Gordon follow it? |

1468 | And what ailed the old blockhead then,cried Jeffreys,"that he did not take it?" |
1468 | Does your Lordship think,said Baxter,"that any jury will convict a man on such a trial as this?" |
1468 | For which King? |
1468 | For whom are you? |
1468 | I am at peace with God,answered Rumbold, calmly;"how then can I be confounded?" |
1468 | Is there then no hope? |

1468 | Was there ever,he cried,"such an impudent rascal? |
1468 | Will she take the abjuration? |
1468 | Above all, was he to be suffered to retain a fortune raised out of the substance of the ruined defenders of the throne? |
1468 | Again Baxter essayed to speak, and again Jeffreys bellowed"Richard, Richard, dost thou think we will let thee poison the court? |
1468 | And was there not good reason to believe that this refusal was prompted by laudable feelings? |
1468 | And what interest had the King in gorging his old enemies with prey torn from his old friends? |
1468 | And what was it to him who ruled after him? |
1468 | And, if so, would the nation compel him to do what he thought criminal and disgraceful? |

1468 | Had Monmouth really been summoned from the Hague? |
1468 | Had not constituent bodies been remodelled, in defiance of royal charters and of immemorial prescription? |

1879 | So,said this frail daughter of Eve, greedily swallowing his flattery,"you are sure to disappoint a woman who has favoured you for one who has not?" |
1879 | Then,said his brother- physician,"you are certainly a stranger in this house; do n''t you know what was done last night? |
1879 | Well,replied her grace, well pleased at this beginning,"what if I am there?" |
1879 | Why, what have you there? |
1879 | Why,said the man, who but an hour before had been his best friend,"you will not hurt me in coming out, will you?" |
1879 | ''Not I?'' |
1879 | ''Why so?'' |
1879 | Accordingly, when one of the physicians came to him next morning, the High Protector said,"Why do you look sad?" |
1879 | And as the hostler was helping me to feed the horses,''Sure, sir,''says he,''I know your face?'' |
1879 | He called out sturdily,''Who goes there?'' |
1879 | He then asked his majesty if he were sorry for the iniquities of his life? |

1879 | Since he has made you his confidant, why did not he boast of breaking in pieces my poor harmless guitar? |
1879 | Then another thought flashing across his mind, he said,"But will not this expose you to much danger?" |
1879 | What business brought you here?" |
1879 | Why should not history repeat itself in this respect? |
1879 | Will your ladyship be at the play to- night?" |
1879 | are you mad? |
1879 | what can I do? |
21402 | And you chose to disregard the order, and fight the gun? |

20489 | What news, what news dost thou bring to me? |
20489 | What news, what news, my trusty page? |
20489 | Why mention the Dauphin''s death in the following December, except to insinuate that Henry_ knew_ he was then in a weak state of bodily health? |
20489 | [ 173][ Footnote 173: One Glomyng was charged with having said,"What doth the King of England at siege before Rouen? |

14193 | ATTORNEY- GENERAL:--''Pray, Mrs Bracegirdle, did you see anybody in the coach when they pulled you to it?'' 14193 ATTORNEY- GENERAL:--''Were my Lord Mohun and Mr Hill both together when that was said, that they stayed to be revenged of Mr Montford?'' |
14193 | And how do you think I shall look in it, Mr Selwyn? |
14193 | And what do you think of it? 14193 Are you not sorry,"His Majesty enquired,"that there are to be no more masquerades?" |
14193 | But who is the gentleman? 14193 But why, sir?" |
14193 | Goot peoples, vy you abuse us? |
14193 | If a man may flirt,she would mockingly say,"why not a woman, especially when that woman is a Queen?" |
14193 | Is it because Hillsborough, the stupidest of your brother peers, paid you such fine compliments on your speech? |
14193 | Shall I tell you what Lady Jersey is like? |
14193 | The hand of Godit was, no doubt, which struck the fatal blow-- it always must be; but was there no other agency, and that a human one? |
14193 | What are pedigrees worth? |
14193 | What is it worth? |
14193 | What must I do, then? |
14193 | What o''clock is it? |
14193 | What should I do? |
14193 | What''s that? |
14193 | What, to a fine gentleman? 14193 Yes, fellow,"rejoined her Grace,"do n''t you see my arms upon my carriage?" |
14193 | You refuse to sign? |
14193 | ''What odds?'' |
14193 | A few days later when the King met Lady Sarah, he asked:"Has your friend given you my message?" |
14193 | And was it not strange that this late arrival should appear to be several months older than his more robust brother, as the purchased child was? |
14193 | And what of the child who drew from her mother royal and ducal strains, and from her father the blood of stablemen and peasants? |
14193 | And what was the fate of Mary King, the cause, however innocent, of all this tragedy? |
14193 | Breaking away from her guardian the pretty little madcap ran up to the King and exclaimed in French:"How do you do, Mr King? |
14193 | But I did n''t show it, did I?" |
14193 | But was he not her hero, one of"Nature''s gentlemen,"and as such the equal of any man in the land? |
14193 | But was he to blame? |
14193 | But what could have been Lady Jean''s motive; and does the sequel furnish a clue to it? |
14193 | By- and- bye the watch came up to them, and when the watch came they said,"Gentlemen, why do you walk with your swords drawn?" |
14193 | Can one wonder that the proud spirit of the girl rebelled against such ignominy? |
14193 | Could it not be the hand of a brother? |
14193 | Could that exquisite flower of young womanhood be the ugly, awkward girl he had married so strangely as a boy? |
14193 | Do I not daily boast how I betrayed The tender widow and the virtuous maid?" |
14193 | Have I not broke a noble parent''s heart? |
14193 | He might kiss her--_vraiment_--why not? |
14193 | His first question to the watchmen was,"Has Hill escaped?" |
14193 | How had this tragedy happened? |
14193 | How would you like, my dear Sally, to be its mistress?" |
14193 | If she be a lady of such quality, why does she demean herself to be what she is? |
14193 | In about two hours Lord Ferrers appeared at the garret window, and called out:''How is Johnson?'' |
14193 | Ireland, my lords, is armed; and what is her language? |
14193 | Pray now, where is the wretch who would not be happy?" |
14193 | Tell her so from me, will you?" |
14193 | The lass loves him dearly; and has he not house and land, too, and plenty of money to keep her?" |
14193 | Then, with a toss of her proud head, she turned to Rogers and laughingly said,"I did that well, did n''t I?" |
14193 | Was ever lover more abject, or ever maid so hard of heart, at least in seeming? |
14193 | Was ever maid placed, on the threshold of life, in so dangerous a predicament? |
14193 | Was ever wayward woman so unjust? |
14193 | Was ever woman so hard to woo or to understand, or lover so patient under so much provocation? |
14193 | Was ever wooing and winning so strange, so inexplicable? |
14193 | Was it at all likely that such a man would drop dead during a quiet and unexciting stroll across country? |
14193 | Was it innocence or artfulness, this assumption of childish prudery? |
14193 | Was it suicide or a brutal murder? |
14193 | Was there ever so tantalising and inscrutable a maid? |
14193 | Was there ever such a man? |
14193 | What could the poor merchant do in such a predicament, when his Sovereign stooped to beg as a favour what his lonely heart yearned to grant? |
14193 | What do you think of it?" |
14193 | What more direct encouragement could an ardent lover want? |
14193 | What was the cause of his mysterious death? |
14193 | What would you do?" |
14193 | Whatever may be the truth, none could prove it then; and who shall succeed now? |
14193 | Where did he go, and how did he get his gold? |
14193 | Would not indeed,"the genial old chatterbox adds,"one wonder how they could get anybody, either above or below that rank, to dine with them at all? |
14193 | Yes or no?" |
14193 | You have a beautiful house here,_ n''est- ce pas_?" |
14193 | and had Dudley any hand in it? |
10700 | But are there not,he pursued,"some among you who think otherwise?" |
10700 | Tell me,said he to Sterry, one of his chaplains,"Is it possible to fall from grace?" |
10700 | At these words the lord- general abruptly exclaimed,"What, if a man should take upon him to be king?" |
10700 | But at what part of the action? |
10700 | But even in that hypothesis, how could the house, constituted as it then was, claim to be the representative of the people? |
10700 | But had they then done nothing? |
10700 | But how could that be, when the storm began on the 11th, and the army marched from Drogheda on the 15th? |
10700 | But how could these bloody proceedings be reconciled with the terms of capitulation which had been already granted? |
10700 | But in what style was Louis to address the usurper by letter? |
10700 | But was not the necessity of his creation? |
10700 | But what right had they exclusively to constitute a house of parliament? |
10700 | But where was he to seek an asylum? |
10700 | But where was he to seek an asylum? |
10700 | But where, he asked, were the Lords? |
10700 | But who sees not the crass hypocrisy of this whole transaction, and the sandy and rotten foundation of all the resolutions flowing hereupon?" |
10700 | But, after all, what right could this handful of men have to impose a new constitution on the kingdom? |
10700 | By delivering him to his enemies, they had sullied the fair fame of the nation-- would they confirm this disgrace by tamely acquiescing in his death? |
10700 | By what right could it pretend to summon a parliament? |
10700 | Can we be surprised, if, under such circumstances, he sought to escape? |
10700 | Could he be sincere? |
10700 | Could he not then have ordered his men to keep within the castle, or have recalled them when they forced an entrance into the town? |
10700 | Could they confer on others a jurisdiction which they did not possess themselves? |
10700 | Did then the fanatic believe that perfidy and cruelty were gifts of God? |
10700 | Fleetwood, from Dublin, asks Thurloe,"How cam it to passe, that this last teste was not at the first sitting of the house?" |
10700 | Had he dissembled, or had he changed his mind? |
10700 | Have you any written commission from Sir Thomas Fairfax? |
10700 | Have you any written commission? |
10700 | How could he justify such oaths in his own mind? |
10700 | How did Cromwell obtain possession of Drogheda? |
10700 | How, it was asked, could Richard hope to control such an assembly, when the genius and authority of Oliver had proved unequal to the attempt? |
10700 | If the power were the same under a protector, where, he asked, could be the use of a king? |
10700 | Joyce, I desire to ask you, what authority you have to take charge of my person and convey me away? |
10700 | Lastly, what right had the Commons to admit a negative voice, either in another house or in a single person? |
10700 | On what account? |
10700 | Ought not the House of Lords, the peers who had been excluded in 1649, to concur? |
10700 | Ought they not, in consistency with their own principles, to have ascertained the sense of the nation by calling a new parliament? |
10700 | Recovering himself, he said,"Good woman, can you be faithful to a distressed Cavalier?" |
10700 | That Pantaleon and his friends were armed, can not be denied: was it for revenge? |
10700 | Was it on the fallacious ground that what he in reality sought was the office of king, not of protector?] |
10700 | Was it solely for defence? |
10700 | We could well spare them, and they would be of use to you; and who knows but it may be a means to make them Englishmen, I mean rather Christians?" |
10700 | Were the Commons the whole legislature? |
10700 | Were the minutes of this conversation committed to paper immediately, or after the Restoration? |
10700 | Were they a court of judicature? |
10700 | Were they free? |
10700 | What had happened to provoke him to issue it? |
10700 | What were the writings meant by the word"_ these_"which Glamorgan might show to Ormond if he thought fitting? |
10700 | What, they asked, made up the law? |
10700 | When all were gone, fixing his eye on the mace,"What,"said he,"shall we do with this fool''s bauble? |
10700 | Whether it be lawful to do justice on him by killing him? |
10700 | Who ever tasted that graciousnesse of his, and could goe lesse in desier, and lesse than pressinge after full enjoyment? |
10700 | Who ever tasted that the Lord is gracious, without some sense of self- vanitye and badness? |
10700 | Who, it was asked, was to succeed him? |
10700 | Why then did not O''Neil apply to the parliament sooner? |
10700 | Why were they to be sent from the capital, while their pay was several weeks in arrear? |
10700 | Why, they asked, should they spontaneously set up again the idol which it had cost them so much blood and treasure to pull down? |
10700 | Why, they asked, were they to leave their quarters for the accommodation of strangers? |
10700 | Yet, what had they done as a parliament? |

10700 | where the deed of nomination by his father? |
10700 | where the witnesses to the signature?--Then what was the"humble petition and advice"itself? |
10700 | who empowered them to negative the acts of that house to which they owed their existence? |
10700 | who gave them the privileges of the ancient peerage? |
10700 | why, without a motive, resign the prize when it was brought within their reach? |
14992 | And is it? |
14992 | Can Froude understand honesty? |

14992 | Also remember a little that there was an Europe as well as an England? |
14992 | Also, here and there, some condensation of the excerpts given-- condensation into narrative where too longwinded? |
14992 | Apostolic Succession, Sacramental Grace, and the rest of it, are very pretty, but are they facts? |

14992 | Did Disraeli mean it, or was it but an idle jest? |
14992 | Else why had they withdrawn British troops from Canada and New Zealand? |
14992 | Gladstone''s nominee Freeman, had been a Home Ruler, Froude was a Unionist; what could be clearer than the motive? |
14992 | Had they ever ceased at all? |
14992 | Have you got any more such cards to play? |
14992 | Hint, then, somewhere to that effect? |
14992 | How long have you had it up your sleeve? |
14992 | How many historians of his merit have there been? |

14992 | If Parliament abdicates its authority now, what may we not anticipate? |
14992 | If South Africa were federated, would Cape Town remain the seat of government? |
14992 | If not, in what sense was the racking of the Jesuits illegal? |
14992 | If the Christian sanction were lost, would the difference between right and wrong survive? |
14992 | If the Pope, and not the king, had become head of the English Church, would it have been for the advantage of the English people? |
14992 | Is it a fact that a child''s nature is changed by water and words-- or that the bread when it is broken ceases to be bread? |
14992 | Is it a fact that any special mysterious power is communicated by a Bishop''s hands? |
14992 | Is there a chance for M---? |
14992 | Item, for symmetry''s sake( were there nothing else) is not some outline of spiritual England a little to be expected? |
14992 | Might there be with advantage( or not) some subdivision into sections, with headings, etc? |
14992 | Must they therefore have been much easier to write? |
14992 | Now that he no longer believed in them, ought he not to live up his appointments? |
14992 | Or will that come piece- meal as we proceed? |
14992 | Parliament, judges, juries, all the articulate classes of the community, why had they stood by him? |
14992 | Sooner or later we shall see a fight against the tendency which is giving so startling an evidence of its existence-- and what is to happen then?" |
14992 | Still later he murmured,"Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?" |
14992 | The question is this: Is man an ape or an angel? |
14992 | Then upon what did it rest? |
14992 | These sheep, what have they done? |
14992 | To one of them, the excellent Dean Hook, famous for his Lives of the Archbishops of Canterbury, he wrote, on the 27th of April, 1857[ 1867? |
14992 | To what purpose the ineffectual strivings of short- lived humanity? |
14992 | Was Confederation then a dream? |
14992 | What have I done that I should be in such a strait? |
14992 | What was any one? |
14992 | What was he? |
14992 | What were Freeman''s qualifications for delivering an authoritative judgment on the work of Froude? |
14992 | What were the lessons which after such a life he chiefly desired to teach young Englishmen who were studying the past? |
14992 | What, then, it will be asked, was the real gist of the charges made against Froude by The Edinburgh Review? |
14992 | Where did you get it? |
14992 | Where is the impartial historian to be found? |
14992 | Why did he marry Anne Boleyn? |
14992 | Why should his wife be in a different position from his mother''s? |
14992 | Why, he asked himself should Henry, this bloody and ferocious tyrant, have been so popular in his own lifetime? |
14992 | Would any Court in the reign of Elizabeth have convicted a man of a criminal offence for carrying out the express commands of the sovereign? |
14992 | Yet who can deny that Elizabeth only did to Mary as Mary would have done to her? |
14992 | and what must a man be who could exercise his wit on such a subject? |

23496 | By the time the evening was closing in, the_ President_ was up to her Captain Bingham hailed, asking,"What ship is that?" |
23496 | On its being reported to Nelson, he shrugged his shoulders, repeating the words,"Leave off action? |
23496 | On this I involuntarily exclaimed,` Now''s the time;''when the admiral asked me what I meant, and how I dared to speak? |

16915 | Did you ever see such in almost any country? 16915 Have we a nice church at Merton? |
16915 | Have you heard of any house? 16915 Is that poor Scott,"he said,"who is gone?" |
16915 | Their destination, is it Ireland or the Levant? 16915 War or Peace?" |
16915 | Well, Hardy,said Nelson,"how goes the battle? |
16915 | What might not Bruix have done, had he done his duty? |
16915 | What then? |
16915 | What was it? |
16915 | Where is our invasion to come from? 16915 Who is that?" |

16915 | Would our ancestors have done it? 16915 ''What did you say?'' 16915 ''What is to be done,''he said,''with admirals who allow their spirits to sink, and determine to hasten home at the first damage they receive? 16915 16[ For Close Action] still hoisted?'' 16915 39?'' 16915 A week before, on the 13th of May, the same officer had written:Where are you all this time? |
16915 | Absence to us is equally painful: but, if I had either stayed at home, or neglected my duty abroad, would not my Emma have blushed for me? |
16915 | And who more apt than Bonaparte to spread the impression that some such surprise was brewing? |
16915 | And will Erskine be justified in sending men before his entirely uncertain arrival? |
16915 | As it is, Ball can hardly keep the inhabitants in hope of relief; what then will it be if the Portuguese withdraw? |
16915 | Besides, there is the further difficulty that a superior officer is expected from England, and what will he say? |
16915 | Captain Hardy then said,"Shall we make the signal, Sir?" |
16915 | Could even the oldest diplomatic character be drier? |

16915 | I have had the best disposed fleet of friends, but who can say what will be the event of a battle? |
16915 | I should have fought the enemy, so did my friend Calder; but who can say that he will be more successful than another? |
16915 | In whose interest would such a letter most likely be penned? |

23471 | In his defence he kept asking, over and over again,"Where will you find another tax? |
23471 | Or is it to murderers only that you will extend the mercy of the Crown?" |
23471 | Should they accept the Act and its consequential ruin of their trade or ignore it, and by resorting to smuggling prosper as before? |

17520 | Can we conceive a higher felicity, than the blending of their interests and lives in such an union? |

12853 | Lawmade us outcasts-- scourged us, trampled us, plundered us-- do you marvel that, amongst the Irish people, law has been held in"disesteem?" |
12853 | And now, what is the charge against my fellow- traversers and myself? |
12853 | Are we to have a succession of these"scenes in court?" |
12853 | But do you wonder greatly that law of that complexion failed to secure popular sympathy and respect? |
12853 | But do you, then, marvel that the laws imposed on us by the power that perpetrated that deed are not revered, loved, and respected? |
12853 | But even within the Pale, how did it recommend itself to popular reverence and affection? |
12853 | But how and in what spirit was Emancipation granted? |
12853 | But how were they received? |
12853 | But what is the fact? |
12853 | But what took place? |
12853 | But who is it that challenges me? |
12853 | But, gentlemen of the jury, what is that Irish nation to which my allegiance turns? |
12853 | Can this be called trial by jury? |
12853 | Did the magistrates sign it? |
12853 | Do I mean only those who think and feel as I do on public questions? |
12853 | Do I thereby mean a party, or a class, or creed? |
12853 | Do you believe that that want of respect arises from the"seditions"of men like my fellow- traversers and myself? |
12853 | Do you marvel that they held in"disesteem"the law and government that acted thus? |
12853 | Do you think this feeling arises from"sympathy with assassination or murder?" |
12853 | Does a man, by protesting, ever so vehemently, against an act of a not infallible tribunal, incur the charge of attempting its overthrow? |
12853 | For what, then, were those chains put on untried prisoners? |
12853 | Had the brightness of that era been prolonged-- picture it, think of it-- what a country would ours be now? |
12853 | Has not all the Queen''s subjects the right to say altogether if they can without disturbance of the Queen''s peace? |

12853 | If you poison a stream at its source, will you marvel if down through all its courses the deadly element is present? |
12853 | Is it not pertinent, therefore, gentlemen, for me to say to you this is an unwise proceeding which my prosecutors bid you to sanction by a verdict? |
12853 | Is it wonderful to see estrangement between a people and laws imposed on them by the over- ruling influence of another nation? |
12853 | Mr. Dix-- And he has done so? |
12853 | Mr. Dix-- Does anyone appear for Mr. Scanlan? |
12853 | Mr. Sullivan-- And can the crown order a juror to stand by without a cause assigned? |
12853 | Mr. Sullivan-- My lord, have I any right to challenge? |
12853 | Odious it may be, but in the eyes of whom? |
12853 | Oh, who will say in that brief hour at least the Irish nation was not reconciled to the throne and laws? |
12853 | Surely not of any loyal subject? |
12853 | That was the seed-- that was the plant-- do you wonder if the tree is not now esteemed and loved? |
12853 | The scaffold streamed with the blood of those whom the people loved and revered-- how could they love and revere the scaffold? |
12853 | The scenes of yesterday in the Dublin police- court will cause an astonished public to put the question, is the government insane? |
12853 | Think you it was"sympathy for murder"called us forth, or caused the priests of the Catholic Church to drape their churches? |
12853 | Was it done because the ministers discovered that the terror of suspended habeas corpus had not in this matter stifled public opinion? |
12853 | Was that a just verdict? |
12853 | Waters or Mr. Scanlan? |
12853 | We saw all this-- we saw all this; and think you it did not sink into our hearts? |
12853 | We so declared when we imagined that they would be at least rationally conducted; but what is to be said now? |
12853 | What a unanimity of feeling, or rather what a naturalness of sentiment does not this wonderful demonstration exhibit? |
12853 | What did he seek? |
12853 | What is the meaning of that phrase,"the police?" |

12853 | What was the result? |
12853 | What was to be done? |
12853 | What was to be done? |
12853 | When else is the_ Habeas Corpus_ Act of such considerable protection to the subject? |
12853 | When he had concluded, and was about calling evidence, the following singular episode took place:-- Mr. Dix-- You only proceed against two parties? |
12853 | When millions of the Queen''s subjects think that such wrong has been done, is it sedition for them to say so peaceably and publicly? |
12853 | Who is it that calls out to me,"Oh, ingrate son, where is the filial affection, the respect, the obedience, the support, that is my due? |
12853 | Who is it that demands my loyalty? |
12853 | Who was this person thus called the"police?" |
12853 | Who, then? |
12853 | Who, unless in times of governmental panic, need apprehend unwarranted arrest? |

20947 | After he had penned this remarkable letter, he asked a gentleman who was in his room how he liked the letter? |
20947 | After reading the petitions, the next question was, whether in case of an impeachment, the King had power to reprieve? |
20947 | Am I, my Lord, the first father that had ane undutiful and unnatural son? |
20947 | As soon as the bailiff got out,''Prithee friend,''( says he)''what is it that hangs upon yonder tree?'' |

20947 | Did you ever see a better? |
20947 | Has any man suffered in his liberty, life, or fortune, contrary to law? |
20947 | Hereupon the sentries cried''Where?'' |
20947 | Is that consistent? |
20947 | Lord Lovat, however, recollected his cousin, and embracing him said,"Did not I tell you, my dear Simon, that these devils would certainly kill me? |
20947 | Seeing one of his friends deeply dejected,"Cheer up,"he said, clapping him on the shoulder;"I am not afraid, why should you be?" |
20947 | Should not the generous blood which flowed in their veins still animate the brave Frasers to deeds of heroism? |
20947 | The implication of a son by a father, who had used his absolute authority to drive his son into an active part in the affairs of the day? |
20947 | Then the executioner said,"My Lord, will you be pleased to try the block?" |
20947 | When asked,"Of what particular sort of Catholic are you? |
20947 | When the Lieutenant of the fortress in the Tower asked him how he did? |
20947 | exclaimed the young man,"how can he use me so? |
20947 | he exclaimed;"why should there be such a bustle about taking off an old grey head, that can not get up three steps without two men to support it?" |

14374 | How was the Irish recruiting problem to be dealt with? |
14374 | How, men asked, even if a bargain could be made with Constitutional Nationalists, should that covenant be carried into effect? |
14374 | I agree with every word he said, but what is the difficulty? |
14374 | I ask him whether the circumstances of the time do not warrant that such an attempt should be made? |
14374 | I ask, do they claim separate treatment for themselves? |
14374 | If you do, what will be the disastrous consequences not only to Ulster, but to this country and the Empire? |
14374 | In a speech delivered in Belfast, at the opening of a new drill hall, he asked and answered the question,"Why are we drilling?" |
14374 | In other words, was the exclusion permanent until Parliament should otherwise determine? |
14374 | Is it worthy of Ulster''s Imperial loyalty? |
14374 | Is that the demand?" |
14374 | Is there a man in this room who can contemplate without horror the immediate future of Ireland if this Convention fails? |
14374 | Is there an Englishman representing any party who does not yearn for a better future between Ireland and Great Britain? |
14374 | May I say something more than that? |
14374 | On the other hand, what sacrifices had been made by the Southern Unionists? |
14374 | She found her cook up in arms:"Is it me boil the kettle for Englishmen coming in to shoot down Irishmen?" |
14374 | Sir Edward Carson shot the question at him:"Will you agree to it?" |
14374 | The Ulsterman turned:"Not let you speak? |
14374 | The listeners would applaud, but after the meeting one and another would come up privately and say:"Are you sure now they are n''t fooling us again?" |
14374 | There was passionate resentment against the Government, and the question was asked, For what were their men dying? |
14374 | Was Ireland only to be let drift? |
14374 | Was the Army to be used against all movements except those under the patronage of the Tory party? |
14374 | What did Mr. Barrie say in his formal document? |
14374 | What is safety for the Empire? |
14374 | What is safety for us? |
14374 | What remained then, if Ulster would not accept the offer? |
14374 | What would be the effect throughout the Empire? |
14374 | Where''s John Redmond?" |
14374 | Who can say that is an exaggeration? |
14374 | Who could suppose that the formation of combatant forces would remain a monopoly of any party? |
14374 | Who should have authority over Volunteers in a State? |
14374 | Who were the enemy, and what the weapon? |
14374 | Why can not there be a settlement? |
14374 | Why can not we do it? |
14374 | Why must it be that, when British soldiers and Irish soldiers are suffering and dying side by side, this eternal old quarrel should go on?.... |
14374 | Why relieve him of one- third of his task?" |
14374 | With this disposition in England itself, what was likely to be the feeling in Ireland? |
14374 | Would he attempt to change the whole direction of a nation''s feeling? |
14374 | Yes, but how was it attained? |
14374 | Yet, what use are might- have- beens? |
15450 | And even if we suppose the Irish Legislature and Executive to confine themselves within the letter of the Act, are the checks of any real value? |
15450 | And if raised in driblets, on what will it be spent? |
15450 | And if they could, what sort of a residuum of a United Kingdom government would be left over? |
15450 | Are electors not responsible to Him for the use they make of their votes? |
15450 | Are the forces to be controlled from England, and what is this but a counter revolution? |
15450 | Are we deliberately to take a step which will almost certainly involve us in a similar dilemma? |
15450 | Are we prepared to see four( or, if Wales be added, five) legislatures, and four( or five) executives, in these islands? |
15450 | Are you now going to place a legislative weapon in her hand whereby she will be able to dominate Protestants also? |
15450 | At what rate could an Irish government raise the money? |
15450 | But Ulstermen ask, What is industrial prosperity without freedom? |
15450 | But how would Protestants fare? |
15450 | But if the civil power in Ireland does not call in the military force, how can the latter be used to enforce the law? |
15450 | But what layman takes the slightest interest in these paper supremacies? |
15450 | But what of the Church of Ireland under Home Rule? |
15450 | But would she be secure under Home Rule? |
15450 | But, could an Irish Government Guaranteed Railway Stock be issued at 4 per cent.? |
15450 | Can Great Britain divest herself of a religious responsibility in dealing with Home Rule? |
15450 | Can it be expected that this attempt, even if it succeeds, will produce better results for land purchase than the pitiable failure of the Act of 1909? |
15450 | Can this be done with impunity? |
15450 | Could the Irish Government borrow £50,000,000, and at what rate? |
15450 | Does any one suppose that a million of the most earnest Protestants in the world are going to submit to such an arrangement? |
15450 | Does not the balance of credit when the comparison is made with the Nationalists come on the side of Ulster? |
15450 | Does this fact suggest nothing? |
15450 | For what are the main constitutional dangers of creating rival Parliaments in the same State? |
15450 | Has she ever said that she would practise toleration towards Protestants when she was in power? |
15450 | Hedged in by British bayonets the Lord Lieutenant may exercise his veto, but upon whose advice will he do it? |
15450 | How has he been met? |
15450 | How is it that the line of demarcation in Irish politics almost exactly coincides with the line of demarcation in religion? |
15450 | If they sow to the wind, must they not reap the whirlwind? |
15450 | If this is not progression-- and progression under the Legislative Union-- to what can the predicate be more truthfully applied? |
15450 | In what sense are any of these conditions likely to be true of, let us say, an Irish landlord under this Home Rule Bill? |
15450 | Is federation consistent with the predominance of one state, England, in wealth and population? |
15450 | Is it conceivable that all this can he accomplished if the Union between the countries is rent asunder? |
15450 | Is it extravagant to suppose that the complainant would not gain much by his appeal to CÃ ¦ sar? |
15450 | Is it not certain that less money will be raised in England, for Ireland, after Home Rule? |
15450 | Is the Admiralty prepared to discharge this office in the event of war? |
15450 | Is there not a God in Heaven who will take note of such national procedure? |
15450 | Is this Bill likely to be so framed that its provisions can be adapted unchanged to Scotland, Wales, or England? |
15450 | Must not each unit in a Federation be put as regards financial matters upon a like footing; and, if so, can Ireland bear her share? |
15450 | Neither Englishmen nor Scotsmen would be willing themselves to enter under such a yoke, and why should they ask Irishmen to do so? |
15450 | Once again, it is not unreasonable to ask-- How will a Dublin Parliament be able to provide the necessary funds? |
15450 | Should Ireland under Home Rule be represented at Westminster by its members and representative peers? |
15450 | The Union has been no obstacle to their development: why should it have been the barrier to the rest of Ireland? |
15450 | They say, What has religion got to do with Home Rule? |
15450 | What are the prospects of Irish agriculture under Home Rule? |
15450 | What could she do, except, after a futile struggle, to give way? |
15450 | What fiscal resources, and under what conditions are they obtainable? |
15450 | What has been done in the domain of Irish Education, and what still remains to be done? |
15450 | What has been the Irish Nationalist attitude? |
15450 | What indissoluble relationship is there between the two that the expenditure upon the one should be made dependent upon the requirements of the other? |
15450 | What is it?" |
15450 | What then is the_ primâ facie_ case which has induced many Englishmen and Scotchmen to think that it ought to be seriously debated? |
15450 | What will be the effect upon Ireland? |
15450 | What will it avail, when that time comes, that in 1912 the Irish leaders declared themselves content with a subordinate legislature? |
15450 | What, in the name of common sense, has land purchase to do with education? |
15450 | What, then, is the secret of this determination? |
15450 | What, then, would England do? |
15450 | Whenever have they been treated in this manner before by the Government in their schemes of legislation? |
15450 | Where in these instances is our"bigotry"or our hostility to Irish progress? |
15450 | Where is the money to come from? |
15450 | Who is going to be the_ de facto_ ruler of Ireland?" |
15450 | Who is going to exercise supremacy? |
15450 | Why can not similar safeguards be introduced into the Intermediate system? |
15450 | Why should the opposition of aristocratic Tory landlords be thought worthy of respect? |
15450 | Why should we then hesitate to apply to Irish discontent the"freedom"which has proved so sovereign a remedy elsewhere? |
15450 | Why should"bigots"be conciliated; or"deadheads"receive so much consideration? |
15450 | Will a Nationalist Parliament be prepared to find it, and if so, from what source? |
15450 | Will an Irish elected authority agree to pay for these boons, and will they be able to pay? |
15450 | Would independence have been granted to the Transvaal or Orange Free State had their use of it been foreseen? |
15450 | gold_ rentes_ stand at 92, or of the Argentine, which has to borrow at nearly 5 per cent.? |
26031 | After this admission, is it not surprising that the controversy should be mainly founded on the time at which the Hannibal struck her colours? |
26031 | Did the boats come_ before_ or_ after_ the colours were hoisted union downwards, to render her assistance? |
26031 | Saumarez, where are you going?'' |
26031 | The sufferer never uttered a moan, but as soon as it was over, quietly said--"Have I not borne it well?" |
26031 | To what prison were you taken? |
26031 | Were the colours hoisted union down by the enemy; or, at any time, by Captain Ferris''s orders? |
26031 | What French officer took possession of the Hannibal? |
26031 | What boats were taken; and what boats escaped? |
26031 | When am I to hear from you? |
26031 | While passing through the narrowest part of the channel, Sir James asked the pilot if he was sure he could see the marks for running through? |
26031 | and when shall I be assured you have not suffered from the relation of these events? |
26031 | ca n''t you put up with the fractious disposition of an old man?" |
26031 | you want to get rid of me, do ye?" |
28529 | but how dreadfully were they disappointed? |
20948 | Are you,cried Charles,"Mr. Macdonald of Kingsburgh?" |
20948 | Are you,he said, again addressing Donald,"afraid to go with me? |
20948 | But if it were not on the shoulders? |
20948 | Do you know,said the General,"what money was upon the gentleman''s head? |
20948 | Had, then, the Highlanders combined to push forward,observes this able writer,"must not the increasing terror have palsied all power of resistance? |
20948 | How often,he writes,"have I gone into houses on our marches to drive the men out of them, and drubbed them heartily?" |
20948 | My Lord,inquired Mr. Foster,"I hope you do not think you have any injustice shown you?" |
20948 | Sir,he observed,"I believe that is the English fashion,""What fashion do you mean?" |
20948 | We can die but once,answered Kingsburgh;"could we die in a better cause? |
20948 | What then,said Donald,"what could I have gotten by it? |
20948 | At last Donald Roy said,"What do you think, Kingsburgh, if the Prince should run the risk of making his way over to Portree by land?" |
20948 | Charles inquired,"How?" |
20948 | If you ca n''t come, I beg to know if you have any men now in garrison at your house, and how many? |
20948 | In after years,( what extreme of odium could be greater?) |
20948 | She awoke in a surprise at some little bustle in the boat, and asked hastily"What was the matter?" |
20948 | She inquired in some agitation"if it was the Prince?" |
20948 | The General asked him"if he had been along with the Pretender?" |
20948 | This was sufficient: the ill- fated prisoner immediately inquired,"whether the warrant for his execution was come down?" |
20948 | What could he do with four thousand four hundred men, suppose he got to London, whatever were the dispositions of the Army and the City? |
20948 | What else could sustain him in the agonies of that moment? |
20948 | Will you ever write to me in my garret at Herenhausen? |
20948 | Would not the little army at Finchley, with so convenient a place for dispersing as the capital behind it, have melted away at their approach?" |
20948 | [ 281] Repeatedly, before the meeting, had O''Neil asked Flora whether she would like to see the Prince? |
20948 | and have patience till another day?" |
20948 | can not ye let alone talking o''your worldly affairs on the sabbath? |
20948 | have I lived to see this?" |
20948 | says he to Keppoch,''a Macdonald turn his back?'' |
27027 | ''Who are you?'' |
27027 | Hen._ What treasure, uncle? |
27027 | The Taverner took mee by the sleve; Sir, sayth he, wyll you our wyne assay? |
27027 | The king, who found himself very disagreeably situated, turning to him, asked''To whom shall I surrender myself; to whom? |
27027 | Then came the Taverner, and toke me by the sleve, And seyd Ser, a pint of wyn would yow assay? |
27027 | Where is my cousin the Prince of Wales? |
27027 | Wherfore, seide the kyng, have ye sclayne me? |
27027 | _ Wot ye right well,& c._ Oure kyng seyde, Felas, what tyme of day? |
27027 | dede y yow ever ony harme? |
21324 | Dear me, Mrs, B., how can you say so? 21324 Well, then, what do you think of Miss O''Neil?" |
21324 | Well, then,continued Mr. St. A---,"who do you call a good actor?" |
21324 | ''Wedding day,''exclaimed some of the fellows,''Who have you married?'' |
21324 | ''Why, where''s your wife?'' |
21324 | An hundred years hence?--and what then? |
21324 | And must not such teaching have had effect in after life? |
21324 | But what did it all come to? |
21324 | Darting to the footlights, as well as his little fat figure would let him, he roared out,"What''s all this here row about?" |
21324 | Did they ever know of such an unreasonable request?" |
21324 | Finding himself tied to the stake, as it were, the gentleman inquired under what terms he could be released? |
21324 | How? |
21324 | Mr. Grayson''s servant ran into the field, and met Mr. Sparling and Captain Colquitt hurrying up the foot- road, the former asked him"what he wanted?" |
21324 | Templeton?" |
21324 | Templeton?" |
21324 | Templeton?" |
21324 | Templeton?" |
21324 | The big farmer hereupon bawled in my ear the question,"who was I, and where had I come from?" |
21324 | The lady accosted Mr. Clarke with a winning air, and seeing that she was not recognised, said,"So you do n''t recollect me?" |
21324 | Under which of these two fates will Liverpool find its lot some centuries hence?--which of these two pictures will it then present? |
21324 | What could we expect but the results we have witnessed? |
21324 | What was to be done? |
21324 | When? |
21324 | Whether true or false who can tell? |
21324 | Which should remain? |
21324 | Who could do so? |
21324 | Who did it? |
21324 | Who have we on the stage now? |
21324 | Why,"she continued,"do you not recollect who played_ Little Pickle_ at Swansea and Bristol in 18--?" |
21324 | Williamson noticed this, and inquired the reason? |
20982 | Who are you? 20982 But if the attempt should be unsuccessful( and who shall say it will be otherwise? 20982 But if they should again prorogue the Parliament, and wish me to stay, supposing the point not decided, what shall I do? 20982 But in all modes of turning it, how is it possible to reconcile a heap of contradictions? 20982 Can I really have to think that you are serious in considering me as having struck at your honour and your life by any vote that I have given? 20982 Can you tell me where I can find any of my father''s papers upon it? 20982 Do you offer one to the_ Nolo Privy Councillari_, or do you draw the line of none but Privy Councillors? 20982 Does Lafayette join your consultation dinners with Franklin, as some of our Roupell intelligence sets forth? 20982 He asked whether I meant external as well as internal? 20982 How can this be done in Ireland without a Parliament? 20982 How, then, are you disgraced, because a single instance of this nature occurs within what are understood to be the limits of your patronage? 20982 I am waiting with the most anxious expectation the decision of the great question-- peace or war? 20982 I take it for granted the French Ministers will think it a point of spirit to seem rather less desirous of peace since your defeat in the West? 20982 I then stated your impatience, what you must feel, and asked how you could go on? 20982 I will take particular care of what you mention about Fitzherbert; was he desirous of the riband? 20982 If, because the Duke of Portland gave much, are you to give something? 20982 Is the jewellery-- I mean collars and badges-- to be done in Ireland? 20982 One may get a beat[ bet?] 20982 Query, whether he is by this means to be in the Cabinet with Twitcher? 20982 Should not you write him an ostensible letter on the subject? 20982 Though I have not written before, have not my punctuality and remembrance appeared conspicuous in the newspapers you receive? 20982 To the Duke of Portland''s people?--to the old Court and Lord Shannon?--to Hood and his set? 20982 To this I answered, that this was exactly my idea, but in the meantime, was it not fit you should know on what ground you stood? 20982 What answer will you give about your stopping the English recruiting parties_ car l''on est un peu choquà © là -dessus_? 20982 What do you suppose is in contemplation about your Chancellor? 20982 What should you think of an arrangement to be settled now, and to take place at the opening of the session of 1788? 20982 What then is Pitt to do? 20982 Would this object be answered, if the Bill be passed without the express concurrence and consent of that Government which now exists? 20982 You know my_ principal_ object: should I press to have it opened for me now? 20982 about the King''s speech? 20982 and who are you, who give yourself these airs? |
12000 | But how am I to know the gentleman? |
12000 | Do you ne''er think what wondrous beings these? 12000 What thou art we know not; What is most like thee? |
12000 | A New Englander, favorably impressed with the process, would be likely to answer these questions by another, and ask, will_ drainage_ pay? |
12000 | But does it augment the yearly production of the farm by this amount? |
12000 | But the dahlia itself-- what was that in its first estate, in the country in which it was first found in its aboriginal structure and complexion? |
12000 | But who built this sixty- columned temple, and bent these lofty arches? |
12000 | But why not do the other thing, too? |
12000 | Can you make an angle of a single degree''s subtension in the hereditary conditions of these generations, or a dozen beyond? |

12000 | Did patriotism ever fight bloodier battles to prevent such a union, or cling to local sovereignty with a more desperate hold? |
12000 | Did they stand for things, qualities, or persons? |
12000 | Did your fancy, in its wildest fictions, ever pass such an image across the speculum of your mental vision? |
12000 | Do you ne''er think who made them, and who taught The dialect they speak, whose melodies Alone are the interpreters of thought? |
12000 | Does a Scot of to- day love his native land less than the Campbell clansman or clan- chief in Bruce''s time? |
12000 | How can you give it cohesion and harmony? |
12000 | How is a man to feel and act in these new conditions? |
12000 | How is he to regulate his hates and loves, his passions and appetites, to comply properly with these extended and complicated relationships? |
12000 | How is this? |
12000 | If this last_ perhaps_ is preferable to the others, where was this scaffolding the highest? |
12000 | In how many years will he get his money back? |
12000 | In what blacksmith shop or hardware house in America does not Sheffield show its face and faculties? |
12000 | Is not that an angle of promise to your telescope? |
12000 | Looking across the circumference of the individual soul, what says this law? |
12000 | On what ground? |
12000 | Or did he live and build later, and dine his townsman, the great Oliver, or was he loyal to the last to Charles the First? |
12000 | Over Confucius, or Socrates, or the Scandinavian seer, or Druid or Aztec priest? |
12000 | Readers both, did not that fancy trouble you, as if an unholy thought had fallen into the soul? |
12000 | Then why should not Alderman Mechi''s irrigation system be put on the same footing, in the matter of public confidence? |

12000 | Wilt thou not give him something better than dry bread and cold bacon for dinner in harvest? |
12000 | Wilt thou not make a morning- ward door in his dwelling and show him a future with a sun in it, in_ this_ world, as well as the world to come? |
12000 | Wilt thou not open up a pathway through the valley of his humiliation by which his children may ascend to the better conditions of society? |

27151 | The men being reported on deck by the officer who had charge of the lower decks, Captain Bedford said,"Where shall we begin to search?" |
27151 | To this Captain Atkins said,"Has the Defence''s signal been made to part company?" |

20805 | Are you quite satisfied? |
20805 | Do you know that he is really quite a nice man? |
20805 | How are you getting on? 20805 How much money are you getting?" |
20805 | Is it to be held in private, as usual? |
20805 | What is this I hear? 20805 Why did n''t you let me know you were going to make that speech?" |
20805 | Why put forward these extraordinary changes? 20805 Yes,"said Northcliffe, thoughtfully,"but where was my brother Hildebrand on that night?" |
20805 | Are they going to reduce their gamekeepers? |
20805 | Are they going to threaten to devastate rural England while feeding themselves and dressing themselves? |

20805 | IV THE DAREDEVIL STATESMAN What was the underlying motive in Lloyd George during those years of feverish combat? |
20805 | In the course of one of his speeches he exclaimed,"What do my opponents really want?" |
20805 | In the course of the discussion some one made the suggestion:"Why not offer a reward of 100 pounds for the discovery of evidence on the matter?" |
20805 | Is he on their visiting- list? |
20805 | Is it to be wondered at that he alternately bewilders, attracts, and dominates high- browed intellectuals? |
20805 | Is there not a strange similarity between this battle, which we are fighting here in Europe, and that which Lincoln fought? |
20805 | Is there to be a reaction in all these directions? |
20805 | It may be asked, Where is the money to come from for all this? |
20805 | Once he stopped at the desk of a junior sub- editor, whom he had not seen before, and said,"How long have you been with me?" |
20805 | True, he was but one of the lesser appointments-- namely, that of president of the Board of Trade-- but was he capable of even that responsibility? |
20805 | Was he to make a half- and- half defense of the Cabinet war policy? |
20805 | Was he to try to explain why he had not resigned? |
20805 | What had he in store for us now? |
20805 | What has happened? |
20805 | What is the labor they are going to choose for dismissal? |
20805 | What is this newspaper magnate like to look at? |
20805 | What kind of labor? |
20805 | What more can he do? |
20805 | What was the system he was up against? |
20805 | What will be his record as Prime Minister? |
20805 | Who was to be the new man? |
20805 | Why should I put burdens on the people? |
20805 | Why should he have gone out of his way to deal injury and to incur enmity? |
20805 | Why was he always in the pose of rebel even when his friends were in power? |
20805 | Will you come down immediately to 11 Downing Street and see me?" |
20805 | You have had your leg pulled, have you? |
27815 | And I,answered the other,"am Hugh Munro, what seek''st thou from me?" |

27815 | This was done in the following way:--A friend or second of one of the opponents said,''Will you fight him?'' |

27580 | Can not one drop of salt be hidden in so great heaps of sweetness? |
27580 | Coke then suddenly turned upon him, and cried out,''To whom, Sir Walter, did you bear malice? |
27580 | Dost thou think that I am afraid of it?'' |
27580 | He then asked me, whether that were my resolution? |
27580 | Made it an impression of weak fear, or a distraction of his reason? |

14518 | Again, how are we to get a strong centralized administration in the face of a powerful and hostile parliamentary representation? |
14518 | Are the conditions of the connection between England and Ireland, as laid down in the Act of Union, incapable of improvement? |
14518 | Are there any reasons to suppose that the condition of Ireland is such as to render the example of the Colonies applicable? |
14518 | BY CANON MACCOLL Is it not time that the opponents of Home Rule for Ireland should define their position? |
14518 | But how deep does Irish dislike go? |
14518 | But who supports things as they are? |
14518 | But why are the Irish disloyal? |
14518 | But why is that to be flung aside under the odd name of sentimentalism, while pessimist prophesying is to be taken for gospel? |
14518 | But will it persevere? |
14518 | But, it is said, Scotch national sentiment is as strong as Irish, why should not a legislative union be as acceptable to Ireland as to Scotland? |
14518 | Can any impartial man be surprised that such a measure, carried in such a manner, should have proved unsuccessful? |
14518 | Changes are ever taking place in the growth, so to speak, of the several British possessions, but what is the result? |
14518 | Could even Yorkshire or Lancashire be governed permanently in that way? |
14518 | Could the two English parties, differing so profoundly from one another, combine against the third party? |
14518 | Do they mean to go back or forward? |
14518 | Here, again, why should we expect success in the future from a principle that has so failed in the past? |
14518 | How has it affected the current politics of England? |
14518 | How is Ireland to be governed on Parliamentary principles if the voice of her representatives is to be forcibly silenced or disregarded? |
14518 | How long could the Government of India be carried on under such conditions? |
14518 | How long could this go on? |
14518 | I am often asked, What are the best books to read on the Irish question? |
14518 | If it is"absolutely certain that his policy worked gross wrong,"what is the explanation and the defence? |
14518 | Is all authority of course lost when it is not pushed to the extreme? |
14518 | Is it a certain maxim that the fewer causes of discontentment are left by Government the more the subject will be inclined to resist and rebel?" |
14518 | Is it directed against Englishmen, or against an English official system? |
14518 | Is it not time to try some new treatment-- one which has been tried in similar cases, and always with success? |
14518 | Is it true that no case can exist in which it is proper for the Sovereign to accede to the desires of his discontented subjects? |
14518 | Is there anything peculiar in this case to make it a rule for itself? |
14518 | Now I do not myself believe these things, but what else can any advocate of Home Rule say in answer to them? |
14518 | Now, how did the Southern whites deal with this state of things? |
14518 | Now, what is the link which fastens each of these possessions to the mother country? |
14518 | Now, what is the nature of the Irish Land Question? |
14518 | Now, what is the remedy of such a state of things? |
14518 | Now, what was the course he took? |
14518 | Our only guide to the probabilities of the future is our experience of the past And what has that been in Ireland? |
14518 | Such efforts have hitherto met with no response; is it too much to hope that it will be otherwise in the year now opening? |
14518 | The Irish members wanted it: what business had an English member to interfere to defeat their wishes, and thwart the Executive? |
14518 | They have now been in office for eighteen months, and what do we behold? |
14518 | Under those circumstances, what was the course taken by the thirteen States? |
14518 | Undoubtedly it is the feeling of nationality; and what is nationality? |
14518 | Was it a tightening of the bonds between Austria and Hungary? |
14518 | What about the Conservative party? |
14518 | What administration ever carried either honesty or centralization to a higher pitch than the Irish administration of Mr. Forster? |
14518 | What are the prospects of its settlement? |
14518 | What could be less successful? |
14518 | What did England do? |
14518 | What did become of them? |
14518 | What did we do? |

14518 | What justification can be made for this change of front? |
14518 | What then? |
14518 | What was the malign power which made the boons we had conferred shrivel up,"like fairy gifts fading away"? |
14518 | What were the considerations presented to them as supreme supervisors and guardians of the British Empire? |
14518 | What will quiet these panic fears which we entertain of the hostile effect of a conciliatory conduct? |

14518 | Where is their Bill? |
14518 | Where was it to stop? |
14518 | Why do we find it in a Parliament of which the constitution and the environment were alike intolerable? |
14518 | Why should the future be different? |
14518 | Why, it may be asked, should Lord Salisbury''s Government burn its fingers over Ireland, as so many governments have burnt their fingers before? |
14518 | Will the operation do more harm to his constitution than the slow corrosions of a disorder grown inveterate? |
14518 | Will the reasons and forces described above bring us to Home Rule? |
14518 | Yet what has been the result? |
14518 | [ 67] The question arises, What is the magnetic influence which induces communities of men to combine together in federal unions? |

29107 | In advancing their conflicting claims to the English crown, was it Elizabeth or Mary that was in the right? |
29107 | Was it a bigoted, or only a firm and proper, attachment to her own faith, which forbade her joining in the national commemoration? |
29107 | Why did he not send it? |
29107 | Why would he not do it? |
29107 | said the king,"and will they not suffer my bill to pass?" |
26067 | Where is Cochrane? 26067 Will you accept the appointment? |
26067 | But shall we blame him for this? |
26067 | Can any property be more entitled to protection than that of the owners of the soil or of the dwellings they inhabit? |
26067 | I understand M. Koering has some in store; would your lordship be kind enough to allow me to take a hundred piques? |
26067 | It may be asked, how is this to be effected? |
26067 | Lord Cochrane, not yet initiated in all the depths of Greek treachery, turned in horror to General Gordon and said,"Do you hear what he says?" |
26067 | MY LORD, May I beg leave to present to you my very particular friend, Mr. Nicolo Kalergy? |
26067 | May I beg of you also to add a private signal by which I may know all Greek vessels at a tolerable distance by day-- also a night private signal? |
26067 | Might I suggest the advantage that would result from using the same projectile from almost every ship? |
26067 | What am I to do about him? |
26067 | Would your lordship have the goodness to cause an order to be sent me to receive this powder? |
28561 | Against whom,demanded one of the councilors,"is the young prince to be defended? |
28561 | And can no playfellow be found for him except his brother? |
28561 | And what was it all about? |
28561 | Brothers have been their brothers''bane, and can these nephews be sure of their uncle? |
28561 | Davy, Davy,"said the prince,"hast thou loved me so long, and now wouldst thou have me dishonored? |
28561 | Who are his enemies? |
28561 | Will she_ never_ die?" |
28561 | _ me_, my lord?" |
20300 | Is it so, sweetheart? |
20300 | Is that all? |

20300 | But what claim had he? |
20300 | But what good could the treaty do Henry or Francis? |
20300 | But who were the Tudors? |
20300 | But why is"the King''s pleasure"placed opposite only three vacancies, if the whole twenty- eight were to be filled on his nomination? |
20300 | Did a monarch wish for peace? |
20300 | Did he desire war? |
20300 | For whom do they choose but such as be rich or bear some office in the country, many times such as be boasters and braggers? |
20300 | Had he died when Wolsey fell, what would have been his place in history? |
20300 | Had they not permanently or temporarily deprived of power nearly half their kings who had reigned since William the Conqueror? |
20300 | He continued,''Is he as stout?'' |
20300 | He had enjoyed an unequalled opportunity of effecting these reforms, but what were the results of his administration? |
20300 | Henry''s sister Margaret, and both the husbands of his other sister, Mary, had procured divorces from Popes, and why not Henry himself? |
20300 | Heresy in itself was abominable, but if heretics would maintain the royal against the papal supremacy, might not their sins be forgiven? |
20300 | Hertford or Norfolk? |
20300 | I said he was not; and he then inquired,''What sort of legs has he?'' |
20300 | If Ferdinand was"Catholic,"and Louis"Most Christian,"might not some title be found for a genuine friend? |
20300 | Is conscience a luxury which only a king may enjoy in peace? |
20300 | Is recourse necessary to a theory of supernatural agency, or is there another and adequate solution? |
20300 | It was all very well to dispense with canons and divine laws, but to annul papal dispensations-- was that not to cheapen his own wares? |
20300 | Should they cleave to the old, or should they embrace the new? |
20300 | The King of France, is he as tall as I am?'' |
20300 | The party of reform or that of reaction? |
20300 | The rest were lawyers and priests.... How came you to think that there were more noble men in our Privy Council then than now?" |
20300 | Was Henry''s individual will of such miraculous force that he could ride roughshod in insolent pride over public opinion at home and abroad? |
20300 | Was Mary''s legitimacy beyond question? |
20300 | Was her succession to the English throne, a prospect Henry dangled before the Frenchman''s eyes, so secure? |
20300 | Was the dispensation for Henry''s own marriage beyond cavil? |
20300 | What manner of man was this, and wherein lay the secret of his( p. 004) strength? |
20300 | What then was the meaning and use of acts of attainder? |
20300 | What was the poor Duke to do, between his promise to Henry and the pleading of Mary? |
20300 | What would be the effect of this terrific anathema? |
20300 | Where shall we place the limits of conscience, and where those of the national will? |
20300 | Who, he asked, should be Protector, in case the King died, but his father? |
20300 | Why should he not come forward himself? |
20300 | Why should he wish to see Henry in Guienne? |
20300 | Why, wrote Henry to Clement, could he not dispense with human laws, if he was able to dispense with divine at pleasure? |
20300 | Yet if these were not Wolsey''s aims, what were his motives? |
20300 | [ 1035] If the canonised bones of martyrs could be treated thus, who would, for the future, pay respect to the Church or tribute at its shrines? |
20300 | [ 1126] Had not James V., moreover, refused to meet him at York to discuss the questions at issue between them? |
20300 | [ 279] But did not his services merit some more signal mark of favour? |
20300 | [ 335] Could the most constitutional monarch have been more dutiful? |
20300 | [ 516] If the Princess Mary succeeded, was she to marry? |
20300 | [ 670] But what was it? |
20300 | [ 824] But would the Pope be so accommodating as to expedite the bulls, suspecting, as he must have done, the object for which they were wanted? |
20300 | [ 830] Was he not, moreover, withholding his assent from the Act of Annates, which would deprive the Pope of large revenues? |
20300 | [ 834] In the face of such evidence, what motive was there for prelates and others to reject the demands which Henry was pressing upon them? |

14510 | And this they get now? 14510 Are they not boycotted?" |
14510 | Are you such a coward that you do n''t dare be honest? |
14510 | But could the people earn nothing in Scotland or in Tyrone? |
14510 | But the constituencies,I urged,"surely the voters must know and care something about their representatives?" |
14510 | Did you ever hear how he courted the heiress? 14510 Do they send such remittances without being asked for them?" |
14510 | Do you know Father Healy? |
14510 | Do you mean that he built it? |
14510 | From the point of view of the picturesque? |
14510 | He did, indeed; and did you not notice the beautiful stone fences he is putting up all about it, and the four farms he has? |
14510 | How did you take it? |
14510 | How old is your mother? |
14510 | In arms about the trials at Dunfanaghy? 14510 Is it indeed? |
14510 | Is it possible,asked Colonel Saunderson,"that you should ever consent, on any terms, to be governed by such--, well, by such wretches as these?" |
14510 | Manure? 14510 Meanwhile, how came the old woman into Court? |
14510 | Mr. Doyle,she said,"are you a Home Ruler?" |
14510 | Object? |
14510 | Oh yes, and is it true that he got a great hatred of England from being captured in the_ Chesapeake_ by the English Captain Broke? 14510 Pray, why?" |
14510 | The fashion? |
14510 | The flood? |
14510 | The time of year, sorr? |
14510 | Then he is certainly a man of substance? |
14510 | Then you do not encourage emigration? |
14510 | This was in connection,I asked,"with the''Plan of Campaign''and your contest here?" |
14510 | Was he a squire of this country? |
14510 | What are the facts? |
14510 | What did any Parliament in Dublin ever do to gratify the one real passion of the Irish peasant-- his hunger for a bit of land? 14510 What has this Inquisitor done to you?" |
14510 | What interest have you in my identity? |
14510 | What regiment is that? |
14510 | What was done with it, then? |
14510 | What, then, causes the distress for which the name of Gweedore is a synonym? |
14510 | When a man finds he is taking in ten shillings a day, and laying out three pounds ten, what can he do but pull up pretty short? |
14510 | When we came to a place, and the people were all out crying and cheering, he would whisper to me,''Now what is the name of this confounded hole?'' 14510 Where is this old woman?" |
14510 | Why did the League do this? |
14510 | Why is this? |
14510 | Why not manure the land? |
14510 | Why not photograph this''hale and hearty woman of fifty,''with her son of fifty- three? |
14510 | Why not? 14510 Why should they?" |
14510 | Why? 14510 Would a processional funeral be allowed for him?" |
14510 | Would it be possible for me to see her? |
14510 | Would n''t you like Dublin as well? |
14510 | A peasant looking him carefully over at Cork whispered to a neighbour,"And is he really of the ould blood of the Irish kings now, indeed?" |
14510 | A sergeant of police walked up as the train was about to start, and asked--"Are you not Father M''Fadden of Gweedore?" |
14510 | And can it for a moment be believed that Mr. Parnell, or any one of his Parliamentary associates, would do this? |
14510 | And what was the upshot of it? |
14510 | And why? |
14510 | But did you ever know her? |
14510 | But is n''t the question, Whether the tenants have earned this sum, such as it is, out of the land let to them by Captain Hill?" |
14510 | But what''s the use? |
14510 | Did n''t Parnell vote at first against religion and in favour of Bradlaugh? |
14510 | Did we not think it very pretty? |

14510 | I asked him what he specially objected to in the recent action of Parliament as respects Ireland? |
14510 | I asked, with some natural astonishment;"the flood? |
14510 | I asked;"is it because of the time of the year they select?" |
14510 | I, asked,"even although the people can not earn their living from the soil?" |

13926 | Is merit, like a flower of the field, too common to attract notice? |
13926 | Is there not as much reason to punish my neighbour for differing in opinion from me, as to punish me, because I differ from him? |
13926 | It is easy to describe his fears before publication, but who can tell his feelings after judgment is passed upon his works? |
13926 | It is no disgrace to a man that he died on the scaffold; the question is-- What brought him there? |
13926 | It will be asked,"What portion may be allowed?" |
13926 | Or, is there any to punish either? |
13926 | Or, whether a man, as well as a spider, may not create a_ place_, and, like that--_fill it with himself_? |
13926 | Pray, are you acquainted with another Roman road which crosses it? |
13926 | Shall we esteem it the higher, because it was written at the age of thirteen? |
13926 | Struck with the novelty, I inquired,"Whether the ladies in this country shod horses?" |
13926 | That necessity obliged me to lay down the battledore, before I was master of the letters? |
13926 | That tend to promote quarrels, prevent cultivation, and which can not draw the line between property and property? |
13926 | That the cart, instead of rolling_ over_ the military way, has rolled_ under_ it, and that they have boiled the pot with the Roman road? |
13926 | The Court of Requests may justly be charged with weakness, and what court may not? |
13926 | The intention, no doubt, was laudable; to prevent the commission of crimes, but does it answer that intention? |
13926 | The question has been, whether they shall pay taxes? |
13926 | The surveyor will be inclined to ask, How can a capital be raised to defray this enormous expence? |
13926 | We envy the little being who presides over one-- but why mould we envy him? |
13926 | We occupy the power to reform, without the will; why else do we suffer enormities to grow, which will have taken deep root in another age? |
13926 | We should naturally enquire, Why Sir Harry quitted a place so delightfully situated? |
13926 | What must be his state of mind, who is in continual apprehensions of a disgraceful discovery? |
13926 | What must then be the feelings of a mind, susceptible of impression by nature, but weakly calloused over by art? |
13926 | What should we think of the constable who seizes every person he meets with, for fear of missing the thief? |
13926 | Whence is it, that we so seldom find affection subsisting between master and scholar? |
13926 | Where then could be found the servant? |
13926 | Whether one able canal is not preferable to two lame ones? |
13926 | Whether provisions abound more or less? |
13926 | Whether the grand shop at Birmingham- heath, or at any heath, will train girls for service, preferable to others? |
13926 | Whether the second canal was not likely to rob the first? |
13926 | Whether the trades of the town, by a considerable manufacture established at the workhouse, will not be deprived of their most useful hands? |
13926 | Whether we shall be laughed at, for throwing by a building, the last wing of which cost a thousand pounds, after using it only three years? |
13926 | Which is preferable, he who lights up the mental powers, or he who puts them out? |
13926 | Who is to perform the manual part? |
13926 | Who to execute the orders of the merchant? |
13926 | Why did not some generous friend guide your crazy vessel, and save a sinking family? |
13926 | Why is so little attention paid to the generation who are to tread the stage after us? |
13926 | Will not a piece everlastingly be tried by its merit? |
13926 | Would the Lord of a manor think it an honour to give his name to two or three miserable huts? |
13926 | a year, and giving it, unsolicited, to a stranger? |

22553 | I suppose,observed Ward,"you mean to present Lady---- at Brandenburg House? |
22553 | A very intelligent field- officer the other day said very truly, in speaking of the subscribers,"what are all these_ brown_ coats about? |
22553 | All this, you will say, may be very true, but is no excuse to you; but again I must say, what could you have done? |
22553 | But how can it be possible for that boat, as at present manned, I will not say to weather any breeze, but to swim through the smoothest water? |
22553 | But, again, when will it ever come to the Commons? |
22553 | Can you fancy such folly and such profligacy? |
22553 | Could not you get Lord Torrington''s proxy? |
22553 | Could you not write to Sir W. Knighton, and recommend to his attention your course of regimen,& c.? |
22553 | Did you ever hear of anything half so absurd as the conduct of the Speaker? |
22553 | Does Lord Buckingham remain in the country? |
22553 | Does he think that that period would be sufficient for Opposition to pass the Catholic question? |
22553 | Ever affectionately yours, C. W. W. What will my worthy colleagues in the Empire of the East do about this_ fracas_ at Canton? |
22553 | Ever most affectionately yours, T. G. Miss Poyntz has just refused Lord Apsley; who the deuce will she marry? |
22553 | Ever yours, C. W. W. Have you heard that a match is declared between Lord Dartmouth and Lady Frances Talbot? |
22553 | Have you any ground for mentioning Harrowby as a decided opponent of C----''s admission? |
22553 | How can all this end? |
22553 | I begged to understand from the Duke whether any partial change-- such as the introduction of Mr. Canning or Mr. Peel-- would be considered change? |
22553 | I said,"Do you think the present supporters of Government, and the members of the Cabinet whom you may remove, would or could oppose the new Cabinet?" |
22553 | In short, there is nothing she does not say against him-- and what do you think for? |
22553 | Is Wellesley a man likely to submit, like some of his predecessors, to be made a cypher in his Government? |
22553 | Is the Chancellor submissive? |
22553 | Is there a prospect of his being able to form with us an administration strong enough to carry on the public business advantageously and creditably? |
22553 | Must they not shut up shop? |
22553 | Perhaps they were subsequently inserted; but why, then, was"Cognoscunt mei me,"taken out and the tablet left blank? |
22553 | Query, whether Lady C---- will oppose or promote a match? |
22553 | Secondly, in which part of his administration did any power of Europe take out a licence for shooting from him? |
22553 | Shall we see you on Monday? |
22553 | The query then is, whether we should explain our vote? |
22553 | What can it mean? |
22553 | What could make the Government employ Lord H----, who seems to have committed himself and employers most lamentably? |
22553 | What do you find in the language of Government since the division? |
22553 | What hopes, then, could a third party entertain of doing this in opposition to both? |
22553 | What is to result from this disheartening folly? |
22553 | When do you expect your patent will be ready? |
22553 | Who is there that can sufficiently adopt the thoughts and feelings and taste of another, to decide for him what is best for his own happiness? |
22553 | Who is there to conduct the House of Lords? |
22553 | Why, then, what would be the result? |
22553 | Will it not be advisable that you should communicate Nugent''s letter and your answer to it to be written to Liverpool? |
22553 | Will not this make a good novel for some future Walter Scott? |
22553 | Would it not be as well to recommend Sir E. C. to Lord Liverpool for a Treasury seat as[ well as] Phillimore? |
22553 | and does he still cling to the Purse, or will he surrender it? |
22553 | and if we do, what should be the nature of that explanation? |
32842 | But how is the grass itself London grass? |
2173 | All are agreed that parliaments should not be perpetual; the only question is, what is the most convenient time for their duration? |
2173 | And then the question is, By the Constitution of this country, what degree of submission is due to the authoritative acts of a limited power? |
2173 | Are they not convertible terms? |
2173 | But has it in reality answered this purpose? |
2173 | But, after all, is it fit that this dishonourable contention between the court and juries should subsist any longer? |
2173 | Can we conceive a more discouraging post of duty than this? |
2173 | Give them all they ask, and your grant is still a cheat; for how comes only a third to be their younger children''s fortune in this settlement? |
2173 | Is Government strengthened? |
2173 | Is Wiltshire the pampered favourite, whilst Yorkshire, like the child of the bondwoman, is turned out to the desert? |
2173 | Is a committee of Cornwall,& c., thronged, and the others deserted? |
2173 | Is he more rich, or more splendid, or more powerful, or more at his ease, by so many labours and contrivances? |
2173 | Now, what does this go to, but to lead directly to anarchy? |
2173 | On what principle is it that a jury refuses to be directed by the court as to his competence? |
2173 | The question is, then, What is the standard of that extreme? |
2173 | Then what has the Crown or the King profited by all this fine- wrought scheme? |
2173 | Then what is the standard of expedience? |
2173 | Warwick has members; is Warwick or Stafford more opulent, happy, or free, than Newcastle or than Birmingham? |
2173 | What bounds shall be set to the freedom of that choice? |
2173 | What does a juror say to a judge when he refuses his opinion upon a question of judicature? |
2173 | What is the cause of this parsimony of the liberty which you dole out to the people? |
2173 | What one symptom do we find of this inequality? |
2173 | What sort of treaty of partition is this for those who have no inherent right to the whole? |
2173 | Where? |
2173 | Why all this limitation in giving blessings and benefits to mankind? |
2173 | Why not ask another wife, other children, another body, another mind? |
2173 | Will they change their wine for ale, because they are to get more ale three years hence? |
2173 | Will they make fewer demands for the advantages of patronage in favours and offices, because their member is brought more under their power? |
2173 | Would not such a coincidence of interest and opinion be rather fortunate? |
2173 | one- third only of the legislature, of the government no share at all? |
2173 | those which the law had prescribed? |
32139 | And one other, entituled, An Answer to a Question that nobody thinks of, viz., What if the Queen should die? |
32139 | But what hand had I in all this? |
32139 | Can they justify the injury done to that person, or to any person concerned? |
32139 | I waited on my lord the day he was displaced, and humbly asked his lordship''s direction what course I should take? |
32139 | I would recommend it to those who would be called honest men, to consider but one thing, viz., what if it should not be true? |
32139 | My answer is plain in my misery,"Lord, that I may receive my sight?" |
32139 | Next to this, and with the same sincere design, I wrote two pamphlets, one entituled, What if the Pretender should come? |
32139 | One other, entituled, And what if the Pretender should come? |
32139 | The message was by word of mouth thus:--"Pray, ask that gentleman what I can do for him?" |
32139 | What prince but would have submitted to have educated a successor of his race in the protestant religion for the sake of such a crown? |
20016 | How will you do that? |
20016 | If Ireland can prosper so well without Home Rule,so runs this line of reasoning,"why give her Home Rule at all?" |
20016 | Were there no black centuries before 1800? 20016 You talk about the tendency to unity,"he would say,"but have we not here a clear instance of division?" |
20016 | ***** What has produced this great change in the situation since 1893? |
20016 | ***** What, then, emerges from this survey? |
20016 | But what about her home trade? |
20016 | But what about their remuneration? |
20016 | But what could be more dangerous to a city like Belfast than a no- rent campaign under the guidance of English lawyers? |
20016 | But what of Rome itself? |
20016 | But who can doubt that it would also introduce a new element of civil power into the schools of Ireland? |
20016 | Can any sensible man believe that there is no favour here?" |
20016 | Could any reasonable man call that a final solution of the problem of government in a country where four- fifths of the people were Catholics? |
20016 | Could there be a more extravagant way of governing a country? |
20016 | Do those who reason thus ever reflect how it is that the English Catholics are often among the most formidable opponents of the Home Rule cause? |
20016 | Does he really contend that Ireland is incapable of receiving the same liberties as we are granting to India? |
20016 | For can we doubt that the alchemy of liberty will here, too, even in this sordid realm of finance, repeat its ancient power? |
20016 | For instance, should the vote for Irish Constabulary be regarded as a local or Imperial charge? |
20016 | For what would he discover? |
20016 | HOME RULE DIFFICULTIES 77 Rome Rule_ or_ Home Rule? |
20016 | HOME RULE DIFFICULTIES ROME RULE_ or_ HOME RULE? |
20016 | HOME RULE IN HISTORY What is the fact of Irish history vital to our present cause? |
20016 | Had Ireland no grievances? |
20016 | Have we not there in this latest achievement a specimen of State authorities over- ruled by a central power?" |
20016 | How could she get on without England? |
20016 | How did Marlborough and Clive, Chatham and Walpole, do their great world- work with an Irish Parliament behind them? |
20016 | How did she get her Mutiny Bill-- a limited Parliament-- a repeal of Poynings''Law-- a Constitution? |
20016 | How has that miracle been achieved after the terrible internecine struggles of the mid- nineteenth century? |
20016 | How has this system worked? |
20016 | How is it that Hungary has forgotten the hangings and the butcheries of the sixties, and still works within the Austrian Empire? |
20016 | IN OR OUT? |
20016 | If Home Rule is so certain to be ruinous to Empire, how, we may well ask, did these rulers build up the British Empire? |
20016 | Is it impossible that even there the binding and unifying principle of Irish life may begin to work? |
20016 | Is it likely that Rome is so beset with anxiety to drive them across the Channel? |
20016 | Is it not likely that it is Home Rule that will save her in the future? |
20016 | Is it not quite obvious that these are arguments after judgment? |
20016 | Is it possible, in short, that in Ireland alone, of all countries, freedom should mean persecution? |
20016 | Is it, indeed, so certain that"Home Rule"would increase the power of Rome in Ireland? |
20016 | Is not that an instance of unionism as against Home Rule? |
20016 | Is there, indeed, a single instance in human history when the grant of civil liberty has led to the forging of religious chains? |
20016 | It is that record that has driven Ireland into the arms of Rome, and who can wonder? |
20016 | May we not be sure that Home Rule, instead of strengthening this evil tendency, will weaken it? |
20016 | Might he not even, if he were a shrewd man, suspect that that was the very object and aim which his informants had in view? |
20016 | Might not Belfast, in that case, be able not merely to enrich her merchants but to raise the social conditions of her own people? |
20016 | Now, what does this amount to? |
20016 | Or Irish judges, or even Irish poverty? |
20016 | ROME AND HOME RULE What is the moral of all this? |
20016 | That the people who use them are merely seeking excuses for refusing Home Rule altogether and at all seasons? |
20016 | Thus:--_ Quebec_-- Catholics 1,429,000 Protestants 189,000_ Ontario_-- Protestants 1,626,000 Catholics 390,000 How is this problem solved? |
20016 | What about the five of Home Rule? |
20016 | What are the general outlines of this great measure? |
20016 | What did Ireland ever ask that was granted? |
20016 | What did she ever demand that was not refused? |
20016 | What do they show? |
20016 | What do they signify? |
20016 | What does this new prosperity amount to? |
20016 | What evidence could you have more convincing, what witnesses more eloquent? |
20016 | What is the present position in regard to Irish finance? |
20016 | What is to happen if the two Irish Chambers differ? |
20016 | What of the''curse of Cromwell,''the broken''Treaty of Limerick,''and the penal laws?" |
20016 | What then is it? |
20016 | What would happen in that case? |
20016 | What, then, are the lines that should be followed if we are to go forward to that goal? |
20016 | What, then, is the present Parliamentary relationship between Irish Home Rule and the Federal idea? |
20016 | Where is the evidence of the Orangemen in their strongholds meting out similar measure to the Catholics? |
20016 | Why are the English Catholics so often opposed to Home Rule? |
20016 | Why is it that these laws proved intolerable in Ireland, and have yet survived up to the present moment in England? |
20016 | Will the clouds return, or is this improvement to be sure and lasting? |
20016 | Will you give £20,000,000 to the Irish?" |
20016 | [ 11] Are we to say that trust and tolerance are German virtues, unknown to the British people? |
20016 | [ 32] For the governing clauses of that Act see Appendix E.[ 33] May not the Insurance Act do the same? |
20016 | [ 44] What follows from all this? |
20016 | [ 71] The powers of these Legislative Councils are still very limited; but who can doubt that they will increase? |
20016 | [ 74] Why is this? |
27553 | Is it true, Lord John, that you hold that a subject is justified, under certain circumstances, in disobeying his Sovereign''s will? |
27553 | ''Every creature one meets asks,"What is said now? |
27553 | ''Then Lord John said that of course he should try to help Lord Aberdeen: but how? |
27553 | ''Tom Baring said to me last night,''Greville remarks,''"Ca n''t you make room for Disraeli in this Coalition Government?" |
27553 | ''Why do you call him poor?'' |
27553 | ''[ 23][ Sidenote: UNDER WHICH FLAG?] |
27553 | Can the Liberal policy of Lord John square with the restrictive policy of Lord Aberdeen? |
27553 | Easy travelling, books in plenty, living cheap and tolerably good-- what can a man wish for but a little grace and good taste in dress amongst women? |
27553 | He asked, how was it possible to resist the attack on the Irish Church and the Irish Union after the surrender of the Corn Laws? |
27553 | He then said,"You can have no objection to consult Lord John Russell?" |
27553 | How can we attack a line thus linked and supported?'' |
27553 | How will it go? |
27553 | I said:"Why, will you give him to us?" |
27553 | Is it possible that this arrangement should prosper? |
27553 | Right through the length and breadth of the kingdom his words were caught up, and from hundreds of platforms came the question,''Reform: Aye or No?'' |
27553 | Shall we advise the suspension of that law for a limited period? |
27553 | Shall we resolve to maintain the existing Corn Law? |
27553 | Shall we undertake without suspension to modify the existing Corn Law? |
27553 | That is, perhaps, open to dispute, but the question remains: Was he mistaken in principle? |
27553 | Twelve months before, the cry in the country had been,''What will the Lords do?'' |
27553 | Was it decent, asked Cowper in his famous''Expostulation,''thus-- To make the symbols of atoning grace An office- key, a pick- lock to a place? |
27553 | What do you think?" |
27553 | What is the last news? |
27553 | Who can say where its course should stop? |
27553 | but now an altogether different question was on men''s lips,''What must be done with the Lords?'' |
27553 | who can stay its speed? |
28433 | Am I your servant,he demanded,"or am I your king? |
28433 | And what do they want? |
28433 | From whom? |
28433 | How can we,said the French counselors,"give a Princess of France in marriage to our worst and bitterest enemy?" |
28433 | How is this? |
28433 | Is he unhorsed or wounded? |
28433 | Is my son killed? |
28433 | Lord Douglas? |
28433 | What business is it of yours, villainous knave, whether we laugh at him or not? |
28433 | What business is that of yours? |
28433 | What have you to do with it? |
28433 | What is it to us? |
28433 | What right have you to intermeddle? 28433 Where is the captain of this garrison?" |
28433 | Where is the prince? |
28433 | Who comes here? |
28433 | A moment afterward he turned to one of the chief officers present and addressed him, saying,"My lord, what is my age at the present time?" |
28433 | And that which is permitted by law to every other person, of however mean degree, why is it denied to me?" |
28433 | And what do you intend to do with me?" |
28433 | And what right had his father to do these things? |
28433 | And what right have they to hold us in this miserable bondage? |
28433 | Are we not all descended from the same parents, Adam and Eve? |
28433 | How comes it that you dare to deck yourself out in this way in your master''s armor? |
28433 | The king was much pleased to hear the sound of his own language, and he called out,"To whom shall I surrender? |
28433 | What is it to you?" |
28433 | What right had the first man to assume this power, and how did he get possession of it? |
28433 | What right have one set of men to make another set their slaves? |
28433 | What right have they to compel us to toil all our lives to earn money, that they may live at ease and spend it? |
28433 | Who are you?" |
28433 | You here?" |
28433 | said the mayor,"how dare you utter such threats as those?" |
18020 | I wonder your Majesty,says she,"can have the patience to sit so long a- dressing?" |
18020 | ''And what do you give her?'' |
18020 | ''Are you mad?'' |
18020 | ''But how is it,''she asked,''that you do not even keep a footman, and that one of the common runners in the street lights you home with a link?'' |
18020 | ''Chevalier de Grammont,''they said,''have you forgotten nothing in London?'' |
18020 | ''Come hither, young man,''said the Benchers, coolly:''Whereunto this deficit?'' |
18020 | ''Could you recommend a tailor?'' |
18020 | ''Do n''t you know, Count, you_ can not_ win?'' |
18020 | ''Does he indeed? |
18020 | ''What is the matter?'' |
18020 | ''Why?'' |
18020 | ''You hope to see me hanged first, do you?'' |
18020 | And now, before we proceed, let us ask who worthy Samuel Pepys was, that he should pass such stringent comments on men and manners? |
18020 | Are you not ashamed, Amalie, to laugh? |
18020 | Boswell:''Did you find, sir, his conversation to be of a superior sort?'' |
18020 | But could we be pardoned for putting these works into the hands of''sweet seventeen,''or making Christmas presents of them to our boys? |
18020 | But how could a person of that persuasion be so strict, so strait- laced? |
18020 | But who comes here? |
18020 | Can any one explain it? |
18020 | Could anything have taken away the expression of his half- sleepy, half- merry eyes? |
18020 | Did you mark the airs with which he came into my drawing- room in the morning? |
18020 | Do people read Theodore Hook much nowadays? |
18020 | Do the students of Mr. Rudyard Kipling know anything of"Gilbert Gurney?" |
18020 | Do those who have laughed over"The Wrong Box,"ever laugh over Jack Brag? |
18020 | Gibson,''writes Lord Arran,''asked him if he had made a will, or if he would declare who was to be his heir? |
18020 | Had he not broken a hundred hearts already? |
18020 | He could expect little else, for had he not actually taken up arms against his sovereign? |
18020 | How soon would you have them placed at school? |
18020 | I often succeeded: but why? |
18020 | Is a beau a fool? |
18020 | Is a sharper a fool? |
18020 | Is it some new species of bird, thus covered with feathers and down? |
18020 | Nash in masquerade?'' |
18020 | Now, will any kind reader oblige me with a derivation of the word''Club?'' |
18020 | One day being asked at dinner if he would take some beef, he is reported to have answered,''Beef? |
18020 | Paris, therefore, Versailles, Fontainbleau, and St. Germains were closed against this gay Chevalier; and how could he live elsewhere? |
18020 | Purcel, my angel, shall I not have a little breakfast? |
18020 | Purcel._ What would your Majesty please to have? |
18020 | Seulement pour un sot voyage avec ce petit mousse, eh bien? |
18020 | Shall parts so various aim at nothing new? |
18020 | Supposing he takes it into his head that he is being cheated? |
18020 | That antechamber was crowded with persons who, as the prelate left the chamber of death, crowded around, eagerly asking,''Has the queen received?'' |
18020 | Then Boswell asked,''what is a friend?'' |
18020 | Thus on one occasion an Irish toady invited him to dinner: the duke talked of his wardrobe, then sadly defective; what suit should he wear? |
18020 | Was Bonaparte a fool? |

14415 | We quoted the following lines: Knows he, that never took a pinch, Nosey, the pleasure thence that flows? |
14415 | We returned to our hotel at the time arranged for breakfast, which was quite ready, the table being laid for three; but where was our friend? |
14415 | What dainty darling this-- what peerless peer? |
14415 | What spot more honoured than this beautiful place? |
14415 | What though in solemn silence all Move round the dark terrestrial ball; What though no real voice nor sound Amidst their radiant orbs be found? |
14415 | When he asked"What''s the matter?" |
14415 | When the time came for him to die he asked for I Corinthians xv., and after that had been read he remarked:"Is not that a comfortable chapter?" |
14415 | Whence is derived the verb to flee, Where have you been by it most annoyed? |
14415 | Who could have invented those spades of wood? |
14415 | Who has not heard the howling of Tregeagle? |
14415 | Who knows? |
14415 | Who knows? |
14415 | Who ran to help me when I fell, And would some pretty story tell, Or kiss the place to make it well? |
14415 | Who was it that cut them out of the tree? |
14415 | Whoever could it be? |
14415 | Why not follow the water, which would be sure to be running towards the sea? |
14415 | Will you tell me, sir, that I do n''t know the origin of Presbyterianism? |
14415 | Would you like coffee with sand for dregs? |
14415 | Yet soft,--nay stay-- what vision have we here? |
14415 | and did the men supplant the deer and grouse then? |
14415 | and what was the force that overwhelmed them? |
14415 | broder Teague, dost hear de decree? |
14415 | but there is only the mocking echo to answer, as if from a far- distant land,"Where are they?" |
14415 | but why does he stay behind? |
14415 | if you see any of the enemy, tell them we are two or three miles away, will you?" |
14415 | may we see the peep- shows? |
14415 | murmured the gentleman; and then he said,"How do you spell it?" |
14415 | my brother ejaculated;"but surely there is n''t a coal- pit in a pretty place like this?" |
14415 | of butter; is she not a daughter of Abraham? |
14415 | or, failing that, why not adopt the system which prevailed in the Scottish Churches? |
14415 | said Little John,"That you blow so heartily?" |
14415 | seek to see What heaven and hell alike would hide? |
14415 | the men pretended to be drunk, and one of them said in a tipsy tone of voice,"Ca n''t you see, guv''nor? |
14415 | the wintry blast comes on, And quickly falls the snow; And where are all the beauties gone That bloom''d a while ago? |
14415 | they said, in astonishment;"where is he?" |
14415 | to which John promptly replied"Golgotha,"and"Who founded University College?" |
14415 | where are they?" |
14415 | with twopence- halfpenny in your pocket?" |

18253 | _ Whether she knew Iohan a Style?_] His Lordship''s introduction of this apocryphal legal personage on such an occasion is very amusing. |
18253 | And how she knew them to be such as she named? |
18253 | Are Mr. Robinsons dogges turn''d tykes with a wanion? |
18253 | Art mine or no? |
18253 | Being demaunded further by his Lordship, Whether she knew_ Iohan a Style_? |
18253 | Come, where''s the sacrifice? |
18253 | Hast thou made any contract with that fiend, The enemy of mankind? |
18253 | How she knew them? |
18253 | In the end being examined by my Lord,[P2_a_1] Whether she knew them that were there by their faces, if she saw them? |
18253 | May the thing call''d Familiar be purchased? |
18253 | My soul and body? |
18253 | Oh-- Resolve me, how far doth that contract stretch? |
18253 | Prithee, Robin, Lay me to myself open; what art thou, Or this new transform''d creature? |
18253 | Prithee, tell me,( For now I can believe) art thou a witch? |
18253 | Prithee, woman, Art thou a witch? |
18253 | The devil is no liar to such as he loves-- Didst ever know or hear the devil a liar To such as he affects? |
18253 | This was his pet delusion-- almost the only one he cared not to discard-- like the dying miser''s last reserve:------"My manor, sir? |
18253 | To whom this Examinate said, What are they doing? |
18253 | What can be more atrocious than the whole story, which is yet but the common story of witch confessions? |
18253 | What can exceed the force and graphic truth, the searching wit and sarcasm, of the picture he sketches in 1605? |
18253 | What is the name? |
18253 | What is there, indeed, unlike truth in that wonderful fiction?] |
18253 | What makest thou upon my ground? |
18253 | What were the names of any of them? |
18253 | What, or where am I, To be thus lost in wonder? |
18253 | Whereunto the said Spirit said, They are making three pictures: whereupon shee asked, whose pictures they were? |
18253 | Wherevpon this Examinat demaunded his name? |
18253 | Which of you that dwelleth neare them in Crauen but can and will witnesse it? |
18253 | Who did not condemne these Women vpon this euidence, and hold them guiltie of this so foule and horrible murder? |
18253 | Who so fit to have the book dedicated to him as one who had acted so conspicuous a part on the memorable occasion at Westminster? |
18253 | Why wilt not kill him? |
18253 | With respect to this old story of the magical use made of the corpses of infants, Ben Jonson, in a note on"I had a dagger: what did I with that? |

18253 | what art thou? |
18253 | where, and by what art learn''d, What spells, what charms or invocations? |
18253 | whereunto the said Spirit said; they are making three Pictures: whereupon she asked whose pictures they were? |
18253 | why should the envious world Throw all their scandalous malice upon me? |
29787 | For what king? |
29787 | For whom are you? |
29787 | Hang him? 29787 Is_ must_ a word to be addressed to princes? |
29787 | What should I do with him? |
29787 | --''Well, then,''quod Maister More,''how say you in this matter? |
29787 | And shall Trelawney die? |
29787 | And why ye gods should two and two make four?'' |
29787 | From the dry soil who bade the waters flow?... |
29787 | Is any sick? |
29787 | Is there a variance? |
29787 | Norwich also contains an enormous brewery, but in this the city is not singular, for what is a Briton without his beer? |
29787 | Oh say what sums that generous hand supply, What mines to swell that boundless charity? |
29787 | The earl asked,"When would you have me go?" |
29787 | The earl replied,"What do you mean? |
29787 | The memory of the great architect is marked by a marble slab, with the inscription,"Reader, do you ask his monument? |
29787 | Then said Smith,"Doth your lordship know any friend or servant that would do the thing your lordship knows of? |
29787 | What think ye to be the cause of these shelfs and flattes that stop up Sandwich Haven?'' |
29787 | Who has not heard of the charming rocks and hanging woods of Cliefden, with the Duke of Westminster''s mansion standing on their pinnacle? |
29787 | Who taught that heaven- directed spire to rise? |

29787 | to cut off my head?" |
34108 | Do they contain an occasion for the humiliation of Carthage? |
34108 | Of all succeeding events he asks but one thing; will they or will they not hurt England? |
34108 | What is one amongst so many, it may be asked? |
33042 | And what remains? |
33042 | Of course it has a story: what similar romantic spot has not? |
33042 | What are their foolish concert- rooms, if they come, as they would fain be thought to do, to listen to the music of the waves? |
33042 | Where are thy river, harbour, and the docks In which the navy of Old England lay? |
33042 | Why is it there is such an attraction about Rye? |
33042 | Why should the very mention of the name conjure up such haunting memories of the past? |
33042 | Why will men and women travel half across the world to see these crooked streets once more? |
30082 | Did you catch any trout? |
30082 | He is, is he? |
30082 | Him? 30082 How can one catch''em? |
30082 | My, ai n''t they glad about themselves.... And is n''t he the one fine scout? |
30082 | What did he say to us? 30082 Who else would it be?" |
30082 | Why Hungry Hill? |
30082 | After ten minutes of this an automobile driver strolled over from a car and asked"what was doing now?" |
30082 | An onlooker pointed to the blackboard, and cried:"What about that? |
30082 | And had n''t I found the East a strange place, inhabited by people not easy to get on with, and removed from the British tradition-- and so on...? |
30082 | And in the West? |
30082 | And the agriculturist is to come from where? |
30082 | Does n''t he want to be friends? |
30082 | I stood on the station with a man old but still active, and he said to me:"Do you see that block of buildings over there? |
30082 | I wonder whether there was ever an inside of a day so crowded? |
30082 | Immediately there were yells,"What is he, Bull or Bear?" |
30082 | Lumbermen in calf- high boots grinned"How do, Prince?" |
30082 | Need I say the Prince did_ not_ appear? |
30082 | Oh, we were all foolish then, how could we tell that Winnipeg was going to grow? |
30082 | The American on his side is baffled by the British habit of keeping things back, and he, too, perhaps wonders why this fellow is going slow with me? |
30082 | The best description of Mr. Beatty lies in the first question one wants to ask him, which is,"Are you any relation to the Admiral?" |
30082 | Was Canada speaking in the accents of revolt? |
30082 | What is his game? |
30082 | What part will it play tomorrow? |
30082 | What''s it all about, anyhow? |
30082 | What''s the use of this funny old business?" |
30082 | Who-- you ca n''t mean the Prince? |
30082 | Yes, we teach it in French, but what does that matter? |
32286 | How chearfully would they exert all their remaining Strength, in hopes of being speedily supplied with all the Necessaries their Distresses required? |
32286 | In these Circumstances, what Transports of Pleasure would the Sight of a_ British_ Fleet inspire? |
32286 | Reflect, my Lord,( for your Country can never forget) what a long Succescession of dreadful Consequences this Loss must extend to Futurity? |
32286 | What Danger could there be in attempting to land? |
32286 | What Fleets of Convoys must be engaged for our Defence, which might otherwise be employed to the Annoyance of the Enemy? |
32286 | What Hesitation could there be about the Expediency of it? |
32286 | What Losses did he receive, but that of a Timber- head? |
32286 | What Motives of an opposite Nature could sway with such weighty Considerations? |
32286 | What Profit can attend that Commerce, which must always be liable to irretrievable Losses? |
32286 | What Sums can insure the Return of our Ships, exposed, as they must constantly be, to the Capture of our Enemies? |
32286 | What additional Expences must the Protection of our Trade require, when thus deprived of its Guardian? |
32286 | What can make us a Recompence for what we have lost? |
32286 | What noble Efforts must they make, when they saw a fresh Reinforcement of Men flying as swift as possible to their Assistance? |

32286 | Who could have objected to you the Disobedience of Orders then, if they acquit you now? |
32286 | could deliberate a Moment, whether they should help their Friends, or abandon them to Destruction? |
30390 | ''He do n''t shy, does he?'' 30390 They come and ask what such a room is called... write it down; admire a cabbage or a lobster in a market piece( picture? |
30390 | You know it? |
30390 | And to what have these old- world splendours given place? |
30390 | Bouverie Street( is this, by the way, a corruption or a variant of the Dutch word_ Bouerie_ which New Yorkers know so well? |
30390 | But the party for the night following? |
30390 | Canning, in imitation of Southey, recounts it thus in verse:"... Dost thou ask her crime? |
30390 | Directory? |
30390 | How do the poor live who rise in the morning without a penny in their pockets? |
30390 | How do they manage to sell their labour before they can earn the means of appeasing hunger? |
30390 | Is''t nine o''clock?__ Then fetch a pint of port. |
30390 | On the other hand, where would one find in reality such names as Quilp, Cheeryble, Twist, Swiveller, Heep, Tulkinghorn, or Snodgrass? |
30390 | Or to bring it directly home to Dickens, the following quotation will serve:"''You do n''t mean to say he was"burked,"Sam?'' |
30390 | Poor antique architecture-- what is it doing in such a climate?" |
30390 | Was not Taylor--"the water poet"--the Prince of Thames Watermen?" |
30390 | What are the contrivances on which they hit to carry on their humble traffic? |
30390 | What can they possibly do in these catacombs? |
30390 | What wonder then that the fascination of riverside London fell early upon the writer of novels? |
30390 | When Mrs. Gamp relieved Betsy in the sick- room, the following dialogue occurred:"''Anything to tell afore you goes, my dear?'' |
30390 | Which gladsome(?) |
30390 | Why not, as a writer of the day expressed it, measure from the G. P. O.? |
30390 | You will ask Mac, and why not his sister? |
30390 | _ Cowper._"What is London?" |
30390 | who''s to drive? |
1265 | Certainly,said the Regent;"Georgina?" |
1265 | Do, ma''am? 1265 Do, ma''am? |
1265 | Has Mr. Childers ascertained anything on the subject of the beards? |
1265 | Has your Majesty been riding today? |
1265 | Has your Majesty got a nice horse? |
1265 | I should like to know,she exclaimed in triumphant scorn,"if they mean to give the Ladies seats in Parliament?" |
1265 | Is Sir Robert so weak,she asked,"that even the Ladies must be of his opinion?" |
1265 | Or Elizabeth? |
1265 | The Mistress of the Robes and the Ladies of the Bedchamber? |
1265 | What am I to do if Lord Melbourne comes up to me? |
1265 | What is your favourite tune? 1265 What''s that you''re drinking, sir?" |
1265 | Who is there? |
1265 | Who is there? |
1265 | Who the devil is to take out the maid of honour? |
1265 | Why did n''t she send for the butler? |
1265 | Why do n''t you drink wine? 1265 Your sister, Lady Frances Egerton, rides, I think, does n''t she?" |
1265 | A second Gloriana, did he call her? |
1265 | After all, what else could she do? |
1265 | Albert threw up his hands in shocked amazement: what could one do with such a man? |
1265 | Albert was of course delighted, and his merriment at the family gathering was more pronounced than ever: and yet... what was there that was wrong? |
1265 | An anonymous pamphlet entitled"What does she do with it?" |
1265 | And was he going to allow himself, his wife, his family, his whole existence, to be governed by Baroness Lehzen? |
1265 | And why should they not last? |
1265 | And yet-- why was it-- all was not well with him? |
1265 | And, if the gentle virtue of an inward excellence availed so little, could he expect more from the hard ways of skill and force? |
1265 | But had the Baron no misgivings? |
1265 | But how could he choose the right person? |
1265 | But the English Government appeared to adopt a neutral attitude; it was too bad; not to be for him was to be against him, could they not see that? |
1265 | But then-- supposing Palmerston refused to go? |
1265 | But what could she do? |
1265 | But what did Lord Palmerston care? |
1265 | But why should it have been? |
1265 | But would all go well?? |
1265 | But would all go well?? |
1265 | But, indeed, why should there be any question of resisting? |
1265 | But, though the Prince might be dead, had he not left a vicegerent behind him? |
1265 | Could he believe, in his blind arrogance, that even his ignominious dismissal from office was something that could be brushed aside? |
1265 | Did Lord Palmerston forget that she was Queen of England? |
1265 | Did he never wonder whether, perhaps, he might have accomplished not too little but too much? |
1265 | Did he possess the magic bridle which would curb that fiery steed? |
1265 | Did he smile as he wrote the words? |
1265 | Did she not understand that the consort of a constitutional sovereign must not be frivolous? |
1265 | Did she wonder in her heart of hearts how the Deity could have dared? |
1265 | Greville?" |
1265 | Had he not asked Albert to succeed him as commander- in- chief? |
1265 | Had he not been a supporter of good Sir Robert? |
1265 | Had he, possibly, gone too far? |
1265 | Had not Sir James Clark assured her that all would be well? |
1265 | Had she really once loved London and late hours and dissipation? |
1265 | Had she won? |
1265 | Had the Prince forgotten the noble aims to which his life was to be devoted? |
1265 | He had run through everything, and yet-- if Peel went out, he might be sent for-- why not? |
1265 | His colleagues observed another symptom-- was it of his irresponsibility or his wisdom? |
1265 | How could she ever have dreamt of setting up her will against his wisdom, her ignorance against his knowledge, her fancies against his perfect taste? |
1265 | How could she tolerate a state of affairs in which despatches written in her name were sent abroad without her approval or even her knowledge? |
1265 | How could they have guessed that he had spent the night before diligently getting up the details of their case? |
1265 | How much does the bucket understand the well? |
1265 | Humanity and fallibility are infectious things; was it possible that Lehzen''s prim pupil had caught them? |
1265 | IV Words and books may be ambiguous memorials; but who can misinterpret the visible solidity of bronze and stone? |
1265 | No doubt; but was that all? |
1265 | Of a boy with such a record, what else could be supposed? |
1265 | She was Queen of England, and was not that enough? |
1265 | Six years before, what would she have said, if a prophet had told her that the day would come when she would be horrified by the triumph of the Whigs? |
1265 | Some absolute, some ineffable sympathy? |
1265 | Some extraordinary, some sublime success? |
1265 | That she was beginning to listen to siren voices? |
1265 | That the secret impulses of self- expression, of self- indulgence even, were mastering her life? |
1265 | The Prince was interested in foreign affairs? |
1265 | The excuse was worse than the fault: was he the wife and she the husband? |
1265 | The factory children? |
1265 | The purest intentions and the justest desires? |
1265 | There were very good reasons for keeping the Irish in their places; but what had that to do with it? |
1265 | They could hardly believe it; was it possible that they had made a mistake, and that Albert was a good fellow after all? |
1265 | Those functions and powers had become, in effect, his; and what sort of use was he making of them? |
1265 | To bully the Queen, to order her about, to reprimand her-- who could dream of venturing upon such audacities? |
1265 | Was England herself at his feet? |
1265 | Was a statue or an institution to be preferred? |
1265 | Was it possible, then, that all was over? |
1265 | Was it possible? |
1265 | Was not such a course of conduct, far from being a temptation, simply"selon les regles?" |
1265 | Was she, indeed, about to see Lord M. for the last time? |
1265 | Was there not a foreigner in the highest of high places, a foreigner whose hostility to their own adored champion was unrelenting and unconcealed? |
1265 | Well, she would make an effort..."But what am I to do if Victoria asks me to shake hands with Lehzen?" |
1265 | What benefits, it was asked, did the nation reap to counterbalance the enormous sums which were expended upon the Sovereign? |
1265 | What did Lord M. think? |
1265 | What did Palmerston know of economics, of science, of history? |
1265 | What did he care for morality and education? |
1265 | What did the jury mean, she asked, by saying that Maclean was not guilty? |
1265 | What had she to do with empty shows and vain enjoyments? |
1265 | What had she to look forward to in England? |
1265 | What indeed? |
1265 | What is the distinction between happiness that is real and happiness that is felt? |
1265 | What nobler end could a man scheme for? |
1265 | What possible place could there be for enjoyment in the existence of a Prince of Wales? |
1265 | What shall we say if Canada, Malta, etc., begin to trouble us? |
1265 | What was it? |
1265 | What was to be done? |
1265 | What were royal marriages for, if they did not enable sovereigns, in spite of the hindrances of constitutions, to control foreign politics? |
1265 | Where was all this to end? |
1265 | Where was this to end? |
1265 | Who COULD appreciate him in England? |
1265 | Who could keep such a communication secret? |
1265 | Who was there who appreciated him, really and truly? |
1265 | Who would they be? |
1265 | Why had she embarked on this hazardous experiment? |
1265 | Why had she not been contented with Lord M.? |
1265 | Why should he? |
1265 | Why should not the Duke of Kent look forward to an equal sum? |
1265 | Why should she remain in a foreign country, among strangers, whose language she could not speak, whose customs she could not understand? |
1265 | Why should she? |
1265 | Why? |
1265 | Would the world never understand? |
1265 | You did n''t expect that, did you?" |
1265 | for ME and others, this is changed, and I KNOW WHAT REAL HAPPINESS IS-- V. R."How did she know? |
1265 | he exclaimed to Mr. Creevey,"d''ye know what his sisters call him? |
1265 | in this our life what are the certainties? |
1265 | said Sir Robert,"does your Majesty mean to retain them all?" |
27704 | But do they see and feel this, and are any pains taken to impress them with it? |

12073 | We can not live without destroying animals, but shall we torture them for our sport-- sport in their destruction? |
12073 | We talk of this battle as of a comet;"Have you heard of_ the_ battle?" |
12073 | Well, but about writing-- what do you think I write with? |
12073 | What do you say in Italy on the assassination of the King of Portugal? |
12073 | What is the fame of men compared to their happiness? |
12073 | What? |
12073 | When I speak my opinion to you, Sir, about what I dare say you care as little for as I do,( for what is the merit of a mere man of letters?) |
12073 | When do you come? |
12073 | Why is not Pondicherry in Westphalia? |
12073 | Why, do you think I can extract more out of them than you can out of Hawley or Honeywood? |
12073 | Would not you? |
12073 | Would you believe that nothing was ever better humoured than the ancient Grace? |
12073 | You are very ungenerous to hoard tales from me of your ancestry: what relation have I spared? |
12073 | You do n''t think the crisis unlucky for him, do you? |
12073 | [ 1] Do you believe that Portuguese subjects lift their hand against a monarch for gallantry? |
12073 | [ 1]--Are not you glad that we have got a victory that we can at least call_ Cousin_? |
12073 | _ Apropos_ to_ them_, I will send you an epigram that I made the other day on Mr. Chute''s asking why Taylor the oculist called himself Chevalier? |
12073 | _ apropos_ to losing heads, is Lally[3] beheaded? |
12073 | a whole Roman town, with all its edifices, remaining under ground? |
12073 | and that the Jesuits are as_ wrongfully_ suspected of this assassination as they have been of many others they have committed? |
12073 | credetne virûm ventura propago, Cum segetes iterum, cum jam haec deserta virebunt, Infra urbes populosque premi? |
12073 | did you not tell me that Sir R. would have the majority?" |
12073 | how could I help it? |
12073 | how much will you abate? |
12073 | how oft have I chid you?" |
12073 | or for three Presbyterian parsons, who have very poor livings, stoutly refusing to pay a large contribution to the rebels? |
12073 | or is it, that we are worse than anybody, because we know more of her than anybody does? |
12073 | pray how oft have I bid you Provide me a new one? |
12073 | pray, if they had succeeded, what would have become of_ all us_?" |
12073 | said the populace,"does he know you?" |
12073 | whither will you retire till a peace restores you to your ministry? |
12073 | will you compound for Lord John Drummond, taken by accident? |
32005 | And have they e''en ta''en him, Kinmont Willie, Withouten either dread or fear? 32005 And have they ta''en him, Kinmont Willie, Against the truce of Border tide? |
32005 | But how can I to that lady ride With saving of my dignitie? |
32005 | How did it happen,says a modern writer,"that the raiding and reiving race which inhabited the Borders became so peaceful and law- abiding? |
32005 | O is my basnet a widow''s curch? 32005 Wad ye hang sic a brisk an''gallant young heir, An''has three hamely daughters aye suffering neglect? |
32005 | Where are ye gaun, ye mason lads, Wi''a''your ladders, lang and hie? |
32005 | Where be ye gaun, ye hunters keen? |
32005 | Where be ye gaun, ye marshall men? |
32005 | ''He said, How can I go there? |
32005 | After he was taken, his pride was such as he asked who it was that durst avow that night''s work? |
32005 | And forgotten that the bauld Buccleuch Is Keeper here on the Scottish side? |
32005 | And forgotten that the bold Buccleuch Can back a steed, or shake a spear? |
32005 | But think na ye my heart was sair, When I laid the moul''on his yellow hair; O think na ye my heart was wae, When I turned about, awa''to gae? |
32005 | Or answer by the Border law? |
32005 | Or answer to the bold Buccleuch? |
32005 | Or my lance a wand o''the willow- tree? |
32005 | Quo''fause Sakelde;"Come tell to me?" |
32005 | Shall a friend stick at that demand that he ought rather to prevent? |
32005 | Shall any castle or habytacle of mine be assailed by a night larcin, and shall not my confederate send the offender to his due punishment? |
32005 | The balladist finely represents him as saying-- My hands are tied, but my tongue is free, And whae will dare this deed avow? |
32005 | Thomas Carelton came to him and said,"Do you see that boy that rideth away as fast? |
32005 | What was to be done? |
32005 | What would Scotland have been without its Wallace or Bruce? |
32005 | Why was some attempt not made long before to curb the lawless spirit of the Border reivers? |
26735 | Ah darling,her mother would say,"if you do n''t howld on to your beauty, what''ll his lordship say, when he comes after you? |
26735 | Ah,cried Norah, in a tone of dismay and grief,"how can I reach it there? |
26735 | An''sure,she said,"our young folk will be mighty thick directly, and what should hinder the young lord from taking a fancy to our Peggy? |
26735 | And to obtain your brother''s discharge, you have come on this pilgrimage to Blarney Castle, my poor child? |
26735 | And what was your dinner, Mickey? |
26735 | And who else did you see, Mickey? |
26735 | And who is Phin? |
26735 | And why do n''t you go and visit your daughter, Mistress More? |
26735 | But had n''t I better wait till his lordship has dined? |
26735 | But how will you get to speak to him? |
26735 | But was it not right for papa to tell you the truth, my darling, even though it gave you pain? |
26735 | But what good will it do Phin, for you to kiss the Blarney Stone? |
26735 | But what,you will say,"has all this to do with Hampton Court?" |
26735 | Dear Robert; have you come? |
26735 | Honor bright,said he,"do you raly think now I''d be sarving ye such a mane trick as that?" |
26735 | I''ll leave it to a neighbor of mine,said she; and with that she raised her voice and screeched out--"Did he come to rob the eagle''s nest?" |
26735 | Oh, mamma,the child suddenly exclaimed,"may I not have a ride on that nice donkey yonder, standing by that handsome, red- cheeked boy?" |
26735 | Oh,_ wo n''t_ you call me_ Arthur_, now that I am dying? |
26735 | Philip, avick, what do you mean? |
26735 | The Lord,--why, Nelly, woman, do you suppose_ He_ ever busies himself with the likes of us? |
26735 | What is a wake? |
26735 | What is my little daughter weeping for? |
26735 | What is your name? |
26735 | What wonderful discovery are you making? |
26735 | What''s that yer doing, Andy, darling? |
26735 | What''s the matter, Fin? |
26735 | Where are you going? |
26735 | Who are coming? |
26735 | Why, child,said Lord Clare,"what do you want of the Blarney Stone?" |
26735 | Why, daughter Fanny, what have you there? |
26735 | Why, no,she answered,"what should I be afraid of?" |
26735 | Why, what is the matter, boys? |
26735 | Yes, and will yer honor kindly point out the stone to me? 26735 ''What have you there, good woman?'' 26735 And now, may I not hope that all the dear young readers who have gone with me thus far, in my wanderings, will wish to bear me company yet further? 26735 And the Spanish Dons and Donnas, what did they do, robbed of their splendid apparel? 26735 Are you brave enough to venture? |
26735 | As Lady Evremond gazed on the marble image of her dead boy, she murmured:"Have I not been true to thy trust, my son?" |
26735 | At the further end she saw some one coming, she could not see who it was, by the dim starlight, so she asked:"Roger, is that you?" |
26735 | But she spoke very civilly, and said--"Good morning, sir; and what brings you to visit my fine family so early, before they''ve had their breakfast?" |
26735 | But who was St. Winifred? |
26735 | Do n''t you see them? |
26735 | Hark, do n''t you hear the fairy music? |
26735 | Have ye ever come yet to sleeping in a stable in Bethlehem, among cows and sheep and asses? |
26735 | One of them was in the act of killing the queen, but a son of Graham prevented it, by exclaiming,"What would you do with the queen? |
26735 | Reader, do you seek his monument? |
26735 | The next moment, Fanny was at her side, smiling and whispering joyfully,"Did n''t I tell you my papa was almost as good as a fairy?" |
26735 | Well, Norah, how came this brother of yours to enlist?" |
26735 | When Mabel was told that she must go to England, almost the first words which she sobbed out were,"May I take Bobby?" |
26735 | Will you tell me, plase, where I can find it?" |
26735 | and was our Kathleen amongst them?" |
26735 | and where am I to get the heart to spake up to the lord- lieutenant for poor Phin?" |
26735 | and you brought some_ blarney_ in the other pocket,"said the mother eagle;"for do n''t I know you came to steal my children-- the darlings?" |
26735 | exclaimed Philip,"what''ll we do?" |
26735 | that would be a miracle; but how am I to get at the stone?" |
26735 | they would make an ilegant match, by raison of his height an''her shortness,--an''thin, have n''t they hair of the same lively shade of red?" |
26735 | what have you done?" |
26735 | wo n''t you take Norah home with us, to be my little maid?" |
35086 | ''How do you feel on the sudden change in the political world? |
35086 | But I dislike writing when the spirits are below par, and how could they be otherwise with the afflicting event which has befallen the country? |
35086 | Could anything be so extraordinary as the conduct of the Bishop of Worcester? |
35086 | Do n''t you like independence? |
35086 | On their going in he said:"Where is Miss Clitherow? |
35086 | her of Colonel or Mrs. Clitherow would say,''How is_ your_ Princess Augusta?'' |
35182 | Why has she so eagerly, within these few hours, bidden her gossips not to despair? |
34900 | Is not the very essence of your imperial policy to prevent the interest of Ireland clashing and interfering with the interest of England?... 34900 Your father Columba,""of rustic simplicity"said the English leader, had"that Columba of yours,"like Peter, the keeping of the keys of heaven? |
34900 | A famous bard Raftery, playing at a dance heard one ask,"Who is the musician?" |
34900 | How far, in fact, did the Irish civilisation invite and lend itself to this destruction? |
34900 | In return does she cost you one farthing( except the linen monopoly)? |
34900 | Was this triumph due to the weakness of tribal government and the superior value of the feudal land tenure? |
32188 | And must I be opposed with force, because they have not reason whereby to convince me? |
32188 | But who can unfold the riddle of some mens justice? |
32188 | For, was it through ignorance, that I suffered innocent bloud to be shed by a false pretended way of Justice? |
32188 | How oft have I entreated for Peace? |
32188 | Is there no way left to make Me a glorious KING, but by my sufferings? |
32188 | Is this the reward and thanks that I am to receive for those many acts of Grace I have lately passed, and for those many Indignities I have endured? |
32188 | What dissolutions of all Order and Government in the Church? |
32188 | What good man had not rather want any thing he most desired, for the publick good, then obtain it by such unlawfull and irreligious means? |
32188 | Whom did I by power protect against the Justice of Parliament? |
32188 | Whose innocent bloud, during my Reign, have I shed, to satisfie my lust, anger, or covetousness? |
32188 | how long shall they love vanity, and seek after lies?__ Thou hast heard the reproaches of wicked men on every side. |
32188 | what Widows or Orphans tears can witnesse against me; the just cry of which must now be avenged with my Own bloud? |
32188 | what contempt and oppressions of the Clergie? |
32188 | what novelties of Schism, and corrupt opinions? |
32188 | what sacrilegious Invasions upon the Rights and Revenues of the Church? |
32188 | what undecencies and confusions in sacred Administrations? |
31677 | How am I to make anything of these meagre entries of marches and battles which are the only materials for the history of whole centuries? 31677 What are they?" |
31677 | What was there in it so to stir you? |
31677 | And how, being so unlike the Englishmen among whom his lot was cast, did he so fascinate and rule them? |
31677 | But was this altogether a misfortune? |
31677 | By what gifts or arts did he win such a success? |
31677 | Did Lowe''s? |
31677 | Did he hold any principles, or was he merely playing with them as counters? |
31677 | How can one conceive and describe them? |
31677 | I love her old renown, her ancient fame: What better proof than that I loathe her shame? |
31677 | I said;"and how have you found time to think of them?" |
31677 | Is Semitic genius specially rich in this mocking vein? |
31677 | Was he too fond of power? |
31677 | Was there really a mystery beneath the wizard''s robe which he delighted to wrap around him? |
31677 | What was the true character of the man who had sustained such a part? |
31677 | What will posterity think of him, and by what will he be remembered? |
31677 | What, then, was the secret of his great and long- sustained reputation and influence? |
31677 | Why should I abuse them? |
31677 | Why should I call them hard names? |
31677 | Would opposite views regarding his aims, his ideas, the sources of his power, still divide the learned, and perplex the ordinary reader? |
31677 | Would the riddle be easier then than it was for us, from among whom the man had even now departed? |
31677 | Yet how shall one know what to neglect without at least a glance of inspection? |
31677 | how have any comprehension of what England was like in the districts the Northmen took and ruled?" |
26049 | And why the devil does he want to come just at the end of the quarter when I''m busy with my accounts? |
26049 | Beggin''your pardon, sir; but seein''as''ow you''re a doctor, I wonder if you''appens to know our bloke in the_ Jackass_? |
26049 | But tell me? |
26049 | But what on earth made him streak off like that? |
26049 | Can you not buy your chickens, or my chickens, rather, all one colour? 26049 D''you see that?" |
26049 | Did the first lieutenant and doctor make it up all right? |
26049 | Did you have any difficulty in seeing the next ahead? |
26049 | Do either of you men bear any grudge against the other? |
26049 | Do you mean to tell me they still have these archaic methods in the Navy? |
26049 | Does he, indeed? |
26049 | Ever kept officer of the watch at sea? |
26049 | Have you ever been in a destroyer before? |
26049 | He hit you in the eye? |
26049 | In what way? |
26049 | Is it not possible for you to buy fowls of all the same colour? |
26049 | It do look a bit like''ay, do n''t it? 26049 Pulling his leg?" |
26049 | So soon? 26049 Suppose a man is tall, thin, and bearded, sir?" |
26049 | The First Lieutenant meant BUOYS and the doctor the ship''s BOYS, what? |
26049 | Well, Sub? |
26049 | Well,I asked, merely to start a conversation,"how d''you like the Navy?" |
26049 | Well,''Sub,''how goes it? |
26049 | What about the Book of Proverbs? |
26049 | What about the bleeding? |
26049 | What d''you mean? |
26049 | What d''you think of station keeping at night? |
26049 | What have you to say? |
26049 | What is the matter? |
26049 | What is your name, my man? |
26049 | What sort of a chap did you say he was, Number One? |
26049 | What the devil''s the matter with him? |
26049 | What''s up, Number One? |
26049 | What, in case the ship is torpedoed or sunk by a mine? |
26049 | Who do they belong to? |
26049 | Who is your sailor friend? |
26049 | Who, your doctor? |
26049 | Why on earth do n''t you look where you''re going? |
26049 | Why the deuce ca n''t he leave us in peace a bit longer? |
26049 | You no likee black piecee hen, sah? |
26049 | You will doubtless have heard that I like to keep my ship''s companies happy and contented, eh? |
26049 | You''ai nt got a fill o''''bacca abart you, I suppose, sir? |
26049 | Young lady, sir? |
26049 | Zebra, Charlie, Fanny-- Ethel, Donkey, Tommy-- Ginger, Percy, Lizzie---- Got that, Bill? |
26049 | ''''Ow in''ell d''you make that art?'' |
26049 | ''In the sick bay, sir?'' |
26049 | ''Wot the devil''s the meanin''o''this?'' |
26049 | ''You knows them buoys we was usin''yesterday?'' |
26049 | ''You means them wot we''ad fur that there boat racin''yesterday?'' |
26049 | ''You means, doc., that I''ve no right to order the boys to be bled, wot?'' |
26049 | Besides, bleeding is hopelessly...""Is it me wot''s spinnin''this''ere yarn or is it you, sir?" |
26049 | But what did he do? |
26049 | D''you realise that?" |
26049 | Did you see the way he skipped?" |
26049 | Do you want any more cigarettes? |
26049 | Falland?" |
26049 | Falland?" |
26049 | Have I got time to do''em before he comes?" |
26049 | I take it we go to sea at the usual time this evening, sir?" |
26049 | I will have them in the proper dress of the day like the ship''s company, do you understand?" |
26049 | It is a good idea, is it not?" |
26049 | It was a hateful business to have to fire at her at all, but what else could we do as she would not surrender? |
26049 | Pardoe?" |
26049 | Should he rouse the skipper or should he not? |
26049 | What corpse?" |
26049 | What''s a chief buffer?" |
26049 | What''s that?" |
26049 | Why, d''you mean to tell me you do n''t know wot bleedin''a buoy is?" |
26049 | Wot did you say your corpse wus?" |
26049 | he arsks.--''You did indeed, Sawbones,''Number One tells''im.--''But surely that''s my bizness?'' |
16928 | Where are you going? |
16928 | Why do n''t you come to us? |
16928 | ''A thousand years, eh?'' |
16928 | ''Alas, yes,''sobbed Tawhiao;''what can be done?'' |
16928 | ''Assuredly,''Sir George remarked,''the mission was not without danger, as what venture can be in war? |
16928 | ''By whom?'' |
16928 | ''Can nothing,''he reflected with himself,''be done for this canker, this wretchedness? |
16928 | ''Did n''t I tell you that there is a man in the bath?'' |
16928 | ''Did n''t he know the water was for me?'' |
16928 | ''For instance,''he innocently pleaded,''is it necessary that so much should be expended on the jewellery and ornaments of the women? |
16928 | ''Give the people of New Zealand my love,''it ran,''and may God have you in His keeping? |
16928 | ''Good God,''the officer in the bunk exclaimed, sitting up with a jerk, as if the last trumpet had sounded:''D''Eth, where?'' |
16928 | ''How can I tell?'' |
16928 | ''If a man brought about the death of several other men, what would you say?'' |
16928 | ''If that is your view, Tawhiao, what words would you have for a man who destroyed the happiness of a whole nation, and that his own?'' |
16928 | ''If you had yourself,''somebody put it to him,''invested in a few of these sites, you would be rich instead of poor?'' |
16928 | ''Well, when he had accomplished a good part of the journey he asked himself,"Can I do it after all?" |
16928 | ''What do you mean?'' |
16928 | ''What sort of South Africa did I find? |
16928 | ''What was I to do indeed? |
16928 | ''What was I to do? |
16928 | ''What would have been the outcome of an attack on Wellington? |
16928 | ''Where did I get my inspiration? |
16928 | ''Who could be so cruel? |
16928 | ''Who is the fellow?'' |
16928 | ''Why,''argued the old Maori,''could you not at once have hanged the natives who were arrested? |
16928 | ''Why,''declared one of his men, helping him towards the camp,''should you worry yourself over having shot that black fellow? |
16928 | ''Will you answer me a question?'' |
16928 | A cry of sorrow and repentance by Lamech, at some ill- starred act, which filled him with remorse? |
16928 | A quite large Cabinet being created, the Prime Minister suggested,"Gentlemen, had we not better sit round the table?" |
16928 | A title to one''s name, a red ribbon, or something else, what are they but baubles, unless there is more? |
16928 | And he said:''But who are you? |
16928 | And his master asked him,''Who broke it?'' |
16928 | And of his venture, which never came off, he meditated,''Might it not do good? |
16928 | And the orange stall? |
16928 | And what was the reward of all this labour? |
16928 | At last he caught hold of a hand and cried out,''Hullo, who''s this?'' |
16928 | At last the slave went again to Tutanekai, who said to him,''Where is the water for me?'' |
16928 | At that he smiled,''And who, do you fancy, would thank you for them?'' |
16928 | Before my friend Mr. Reitz accepted its Presidency, he wrote and asked me would I be willing to consider the offer, provided it were made to me? |
16928 | But was India merely face to face with a disturbance which she could manage herself, or was it a widespread mutiny? |
16928 | But why not? |
16928 | But would it be wisdom? |
16928 | By what means were they communicated? |
16928 | Can such in very truth be the case? |
16928 | Did ever a boy at his lessons occupy a seat of such influence? |
16928 | Did it rest its control of the nations, successively adopted into it, upon their fears, upon a compelled obedience? |
16928 | Did they really care? |
16928 | Did you ever?'' |
16928 | England? |
16928 | For what was their message? |
16928 | Go back to the England of Elizabeth, and what did we find? |
16928 | Ha, ha, are you there?" |
16928 | He had always his commission in the army, but was that his definite signpost? |
16928 | He named it, and the lad followed up,''Where did it come from? |
16928 | He returned triumphant with the news,''Would you believe it? |
16928 | He struck an inner note of nature which is surely equally valid the other way? |
16928 | He turned to the chiefs:"Did you hear the Governor''s word? |
16928 | Hearing of this, I ran to him, and he asked me would he die of the wound or not? |
16928 | Here was a struggle between mind and body, each determined to conquer-- a study in the inner sanctuary; but how began the fight? |
16928 | His heart was full, and perhaps also his mind with the idea,''Is it ours to impale the soul as well as the body of a fellow- creature? |
16928 | How could he? |
16928 | How did Napoleon Bonaparte make his army? |
16928 | How many men, being tendered the highest post that their country could confer, would have turned to another, asking,"Will you accept it?"'' |
16928 | How to rear a nation? |
16928 | How was that? |
16928 | How, to help this girdling of the whole world with beneficent influences, through the medium of the Anglo- Saxon? |
16928 | However, she merely exclaimed,"Well if you''re not''Magic,''who are you?" |
16928 | I addressed the chief,"How could you be so foolish? |
16928 | If the babe leaves the womb, to come into such a beautiful world as ours, how beautiful a world may we not pass into? |
16928 | If the leader had cheering and example, what were these set against this final ordeal: a blistering thirst of three days and two nights? |
16928 | If you had n''t, where should we all have been? |
16928 | It was no business of mine to do more than I had done; let them now propose? |
16928 | Lyell walked in on him, in London, with a spear- head and the curiosity,''How old do you judge that would be?'' |
16928 | Moreover, need a man, estimating wealth on its merits, care to be rich? |
16928 | Nay, it appeared to be in my own bedroom, searching for my face and challenging me,"Are you there? |
16928 | Next,''Who killed it?'' |
16928 | Now recur my conversations with him, which included the question,"Is it not rather bad that you should all be living here with these native women?" |
16928 | Now, was n''t that a nice thing for a boy to do? |
16928 | Set against any of the others, all in the primitive state, the Kaffirs might have prevailed, though who could say? |
16928 | Sir George would marvel at the splendour of that creation, asking himself,''Might it, if fully revealed, not be all too dazzling for human eyes?'' |
16928 | Sir George''s ministers asked him:''What are you going to do after this outrage and challenge?'' |
16928 | Still, why should there not be acres rich and worthy, behind those dull grey rocks? |
16928 | Surely it has the secret of sweeter, freer homes; surely in those new countries lie better possibilities? |
16928 | That was right well, for how many had made such a contribution to the history and dominion of the reign? |
16928 | That was why it appeared to me unnecessary to ask a number of leading men: Did they approve what I was doing? |
16928 | That would depend on the elements of the gathering, whether local or casual, and who can determine the point in a city like London? |
16928 | The Queen of England? |
16928 | The blacks assailed no more; instead, the birds sang in the sun, and he asked himself,''Is it all a dream?'' |
16928 | The maiden, who was frightened, called out to him in a gruff voice like that of a man:''Whom is that water for? |
16928 | The native stayed no longer to consider''Is this a sorcerer?'' |
16928 | The servant then went back, and Tutanekai said to him,''Where is the water I told you to bring me?'' |
16928 | The sleeper turned himself lazily, half asleep, wishful only to be left to sleep on, and asked,''Who''s there?'' |
16928 | Then the servant asked her,''What business had you to break the calabash of Tutanekai?'' |
16928 | They noticed Sir George, and a delegate approached him with the request,''Please, sir, can you tell us the name of this creature?'' |
16928 | This was how he gravely met Mr. Mundella''s gentle overture,''Now, wo n''t you withdraw from the contest?'' |
16928 | To a problem which the youngest child carries lightly, Sir George had given much thought, namely,''Of what does human life consist? |
16928 | To them it was religion; whence did they get it? |
16928 | Towards afternoon, everybody being in despair, I proposed,"Why not have some cock- fighting?" |
16928 | Was I to delay until actually attacked? |
16928 | Was it right to tax posterity? |
16928 | Was there ever such a noble band? |
16928 | What better evidence of the innate chivalry of a race, than to find them instinctively expect it in a stranger? |
16928 | What could be more pathetic than the cramping of aspirations, such as had been seen in the case of Ireland? |
16928 | What happened? |
16928 | What judgment would England pass upon King Tawhiao if, while a visitor there, he gave way to drink? |
16928 | What more? |
16928 | What nation, they demanded, had the right so to treat a section of its people, who had done nothing to disqualify themselves from citizenship? |
16928 | What should I do but write of Sir George Grey as I beheld him, of his career as one captured by it? |
16928 | What should he do? |
16928 | What think''st thou of our Empire now, though earn''d With travail difficult? |
16928 | What was the matter? |
16928 | What was to be done? |
16928 | What wonder, he reasoned as he sailed, that a sailor should be superstitious? |
16928 | When I had spoken he took my hand and said,"Have I done my duty to- day? |
16928 | Where did that family come from? |
16928 | Which would it be? |
16928 | Who among them could have imagined the glorious reign hers was to be? |
16928 | Who could answer that? |
16928 | Who had the right, to tell another man, of the same blood, that he was no longer a Briton, because he lived many sea miles distant? |
16928 | Who was to hold the arena? |
16928 | Who''s I?'' |
16928 | Why? |
16928 | Would it be a moral victory, won by a simple advance on the rock, or would it be necessary to strike? |
16928 | Would there be enough rain? |
16928 | Would they not really look more handsome, without all those gew- gaws of brass and metal, which they wear round their arms and ankles?'' |
16928 | is it so ill?'' |
16928 | quoth the policeman;"that''s your game, is it? |
16928 | what are its elements?'' |
23470 | Is this right? |
23470 | Why not? |
23470 | ''Is it possible?'' |
23470 | Any hour might bring the news that the King was drowned; and who could tell what might not happen in England then? |
23470 | Are we any the better for having it? |
23470 | But then comes the question, Is the censorship of any use? |
23470 | But would there be anything very unfair or unreasonable in that? |
23470 | Cope might be here to- morrow, the day after to- morrow, to- day, who knows? |
23470 | Did not the theatres flourish, never better, during the Reign of Terror? |
23470 | Does it follow that if Walpole did know all about it, he was wrong in adhering to his policy of non- intervention? |
23470 | For what did it amount to? |
23470 | Had not the English dogs fortified their settlement without his permission? |
23470 | Had they not afforded shelter to some victim flying from his omnivorous rapacity? |
23470 | He seemed to recover a kind of alertness at the sound, and shaking himself from his deadly stupor, asked,"Who run?" |
23470 | Her flag had been trampled on; her seamen had been imprisoned, mutilated, tortured; and all this by whom? |
23470 | How was it possible for the attacking force to make its way unseen by the French up the precipitous cliffs to the Heights of Abraham? |
23470 | If he had never had the chance of administering the affairs of Ireland, how should we ever have known that he had a genius for governing men? |
23470 | If it did come to pass, could not such a minister promise himself more success in a septennial than he{ 13} could in a triennial Parliament? |
23470 | Is it likely, is it credible, that Walpole had never heard of the existence of a compact which was known to the Duke of Newcastle? |
23470 | Is not this enough to fire the coldest? |
23470 | Is not this enough to rouse all the vengeance of a national resentment? |
23470 | Let the flag of England be torn down and trailed in the dust-- what then? |
23470 | Now the whispered question was,"Has the Queen taken-- will the Queen take-- the sacrament?" |
23470 | Now then you have got so far as the preventing of plays from being printed, what happens next? |
23470 | Pulteney? |
23470 | Shall we sit here debating about words and forms while the sufferings of our countrymen call out loudly for redress?" |
23470 | Should we not get on just as well without it? |
23470 | The King presently went into{ 123} the Queen''s room, and then the princess started up and asked,"Is he gone?" |
23470 | The claim to power had still to be earned for them by the success of their administration; and what was there for them to do? |
23470 | The great question was would Cope come in time? |
23470 | The question is still asked, Why should the people of these countries submit to a censorship of the press? |
23470 | Then came the troubling question, who is to be Prime- minister? |
23470 | To his own ruin? |
23470 | Up to this time they kept asking,"Has the Queen no one to pray with her?" |
23470 | We can imagine the momentary trepidation in that gallant heart: could it be his outnumbered followers? |
23470 | Were not the Romans in the theatre when the Goths came over the hills? |
23470 | Were there not other ways, it was asked, by which Englishmen might have lost an ear as well as by the fury of the hateful Spaniards? |
23470 | What can he know of grandeur of soul, of national honor, of constitutional rights, of political liberty? |
23470 | What could it have mattered to the English people whether George the Second or his eldest son was{ 73} on the throne? |
23470 | What do we hear of him? |
23470 | What had occurred? |
23470 | What ought England to do? |
23470 | What sympathy could such a man as he have with the Celtic and Catholic Irishman? |
23470 | What was Spain doing? |
23470 | What was it all about? |
23470 | What will come of this? |
23470 | What wonder, they asked, in patriotic passion, if Spain or any other foreign state should believe such things? |
23470 | What would have happened if the bloated King had been tossed ashore a corpse on the coast of England or the coast of Holland? |
23470 | When this happened last, what followed? |
23470 | Where is the brave man,"he demanded,"who in a just cause will submissively lie down under insults? |
23470 | Who can tell into whose hands the King will fall, or who will have the management of him?" |
23470 | Who cares for his old storm? |
23470 | Who does not remember Wolfe''s famous saying that he would rather have written the Elegy than take Quebec? |
23470 | Why did Spain venture on such acts? |
23470 | Why should he care to be popular with such a population? |
23470 | Why then not have a censorship of the press as well as of the theatre, or why have the one if you will not have the other? |
23470 | [ Sidenote: 1737--Unpopularity of George the Second]"How is the wind now for the King?" |
23470 | [ Sidenote: 1742--The combined four] Then Pulteney''s career as a great Prime- minister is not beginning? |
23470 | [ Sidenote: 1745--The state of Ireland] What did Chesterfield find in Ireland when he came to undertake the task of government in Dublin Castle? |
23470 | poor Caroline asked; was not Lady Suffolk, a former mistress of the King, in the Queen''s employment? |
23470 | will you allow an infamous libel to be printed and dispersed merely because it does not bear the title of a play? |
23470 | { 159} Were there not British pillories? |

28367 | Would I be so good, if I got into a difficulty anywhere, as to take it easy, and catch hold of him tight? |
28367 | ***** Now that we have visited the scene of our third legend, what is it that keeps me and my companion still lingering on the downs? |
28367 | --"Perhaps we were not aware that we should perspire profusely, and be dead tired getting up and down the ladders?" |
28367 | --"Surely we should n''t like to strip and put on miners''clothes?" |
28367 | And another little cruise about the Welsh coast, where the Dobbses had been before? |
28367 | And is not this another and a striking proof of it? |
28367 | And what did he do with her after that? |
28367 | And what happened next? |
28367 | And who were his comrades in villany? |
28367 | Beyond this, what remains but that utter vacancy where even thought ends; that utter gloom in which the brightest fancy must cease to shine? |
28367 | Did I not assert a little while since that we were a pure republic? |
28367 | Even if we only endeavour to image to ourselves the externals of the life which those massy walls keep secret, what have we to speculate on? |
28367 | For, to you, what is a time- table but waste- paper?--and a"booked place"but a relic of the dark ages? |
28367 | Have we overshot Scilly?--and is the next land we are likely to see Ushant or Finisterre? |
28367 | How much more could I not say in praise of travelling on our own neglected legs? |
28367 | I approach her first, and am thus saluted:"If you please, sir, what have you got to sell?" |
28367 | Not understanding at first what this means, we ask respectfully if she feels at all ill? |
28367 | Or, if we rather inquire which audience had the advantage of witnessing the worthiest performance, should we hesitate to decide at once? |
28367 | Shall we dream over our old play any longer? |
28367 | She smiled sadly upon us; and desired to know how we liked corned beef? |
28367 | The dinner is a long business; but what do we care for that? |
28367 | Then, this sort of dialogue, spoken in serious, subdued tones, just reaches us: Question-- What can they be? |

28367 | What sight of mystery and enchantment rises before us now? |
28367 | Where are we? |
28367 | Who could say? |
28367 | Why has the author not taken us below the surface yet? |
28367 | Why have we heard nothing all this time about the mines?" |
28367 | Why we are still delaying the hour of our departure long after the time which we have ourselves appointed for it? |
28367 | Would it not be better to take a little cruise to Lundy Island, away there on the starboard bow? |
28367 | You foul, venomous, treacherous, voluptuous liar, where is the un''appy Fanny? |

27589 | A door- keeper of a superior order then came forward, and was asked by Lord Hood whether any preparations had been made for her Majesty? 27589 Hath he made oath,"said the grand- master,"that his quarrel is just and honourable? |
27589 | Her Majesty at first assented, but did not persevere,LORD HOOD.--Am I to understand that you refuse her Majesty admission? |
27589 | LORD HOOD.--Then you refuse the Queen admission? 27589 LORD HOOD.--Will your Majesty enter the Abbey without your ladies? |
27589 | LORD HOOD.--Will your Majesty go in alone? 27589 The QUEEN, smiling, but still in some agitation-- Yes, I am your Queen, will you admit me? |
27589 | --"Rebecca", said he, riding up to the fatal chair,"dost thou accept of me for thy champion?" |

27589 | Canst thou, when thou command''st the beggar''s knee, Command the health of it? |
27589 | Her Majesty certainly could prescribe, for what business had they to call her Majesty less a corporation than the King? |
27589 | How else did the barons of the Cinque Ports show their right to carry the canopy over the king, and to have a part of that canopy for their service? |
27589 | How else, before the Court of Claims, were rights of service at the ceremony of the coronation established? |
27589 | How then could the crowning of a queen- consort be considered a necessary adjunct of the coronation of the reigning monarch? |
27589 | If this right was unnecessary for the queen, how was it necessary to the king? |

16450 | ''What else can you expect, ma''am, when a quick- witted race is governed by an intensely stupid one?'' |
16450 | ''What happens if I get a bit wide of the truth then, father?'' |
16450 | ''What inequality of law have you to find fault with?'' |
16450 | ''What is it?'' |
16450 | ''What laws?'' |
16450 | ''What''s the meaning of this?'' |
16450 | ''What''s to become of your brother and sister?'' |
16450 | ''Where am I?'' |
16450 | ''Where to?'' |
16450 | ''Who are fighting?'' |
16450 | ''Why do n''t you believe it?'' |
16450 | ''Why do you say that?'' |
16450 | ''Why not? |
16450 | ''Why only a week?'' |
16450 | ''Why should I?'' |
16450 | ''Why, has he not his farm, and his family with one son a priest, and one daughter in a convent, and he with a bull for his own cows?'' |
16450 | ''Wishna, then, did he not die a natural death, your honour, for there was no doctor attending him?'' |
16450 | ''Would you mind telling me who you are, for I''m sure I do n''t know?'' |
16450 | ''You bought the Harenc estate over the heads of the tenants?'' |
16450 | ''You spoke about an address which you received from the tenants when you were a candidate for Tralee?'' |
16450 | ''Your popularity did not depend on one bonfire?'' |
16450 | :--''Did you ever know a Scottish Secretary who was not Scottish, or an Irish Secretary who was Irish?'' |
16450 | A fellow- priest came to see him, and over a friendly glass:--''And what''s the news?'' |
16450 | And how does Ireland stand in her only market, England, as compared with other nations? |
16450 | And she was answered:--''How could he support any one after bringing an empty woman to the house?'' |
16450 | And what are you getting? |
16450 | BARON DOWSE--''Turned what?'' |
16450 | But why did that man die? |
16450 | But, asks the English tourist impressed by the apparent beggarliness of all he sees, how could the tenant procure a quarter of the money? |
16450 | Could you want more to get him on the County Council if he has no conscience and a convivial taste in the matter of whisky? |
16450 | Did you ever hear the rhyme about moonlighting? |
16450 | Did you never hear the parish priest''s sermon? |
16450 | Gathering her skirts round her somewhat ample form, she called the conductor and asked:--''Is spitting allowed in this tram?'' |
16450 | Have all Magee stories been told? |
16450 | He said,"My wife went down on her knees and said,''Here are five helpless children, will you kill their father?''" |
16450 | He was on a car, and asked the driver:--''Well, Pat, you''ll be having great times when you get Home Rule?'' |
16450 | How can even a Special Commissioner dispute an eyewitness? |
16450 | I have often been asked,''How is it that Ireland could formerly support a population of eight millions as compared with only five now?'' |
16450 | I should like to ask, in what class of life is there not more than one in twelve hundred that gets into financial troubles in a year? |
16450 | I suppose the Irish people are not very averse to a row at times?'' |
16450 | I would say"the North has fine air, would not a change back there get you your health?" |
16450 | Is it not so to this day? |
16450 | Its brief course runs thus:--''Would you tell me, if you plaze, where I''ll find the Blackrock tram?'' |
16450 | Jim from Castleisland meeting Mick from Glenbeigh, asks:--''Well, Mick, an''how are ye getting on?'' |
16450 | Kellaire?'' |
16450 | Mr. Biggar asked:--''You said you were popular in the district up to 1880?'' |
16450 | My wife asked her:--''Why does not your brother support you?'' |
16450 | Now, what will your fancy be?'' |
16450 | Once he went up to a policeman and said:--''Which is the way to heaven?'' |
16450 | One of his tenants stopped a popular landlord on the road and asked:--''What do you want to go to be shot at by them Boers for, sir?'' |
16450 | One priest applied to the bishop for plenary powers, and said the bishop to him:--''Are the people so generally bad in your parish?'' |
16450 | Outside the Four Courts, a poor woman stopped Daniel O''Connell, saying:--''If you please, your honour, will you direct me to an honest attorney?'' |
16450 | Replies Mick to Dan:--''Have done, you fool, is n''t he a deal quieter where he is?'' |
16450 | Somebody asked me:--''If Ireland were to get Home Rule, what would become of the agitator?'' |
16450 | Tell me straight, is my soul all right?'' |
16450 | That''s the sort of quick retort which a Scotchman calls Irish insolence, but then, who expects appreciation of real wit from any one canny? |
16450 | Then at the top of his voice Tim yelled:--''Will a small woman do as well, your honour?'' |
16450 | Then, with the snarl of a wild beast, Mr. Biggar blurted out:--''Have you any idea whether this was got up by the bailiffs on your property?'' |
16450 | Was I not right? |
16450 | Was it in the white terror he diffused? |
16450 | Was it not the espionage, the network of spies with which he surrounded his lands? |
16450 | What Irishman is not? |
16450 | What did he die of?'' |
16450 | What had they to thank him for?'' |
16450 | What has changed it? |
16450 | What parish priest would raise a memorial to any English victory in the twentieth century? |
16450 | What would we do with it?'' |
16450 | Where was the legitimate influence of such a man? |
16450 | Who ever expected that Justice would lift the bandage from her eyes for the sake of fair play to the landlord? |
16450 | Why not place Ireland on a par with America, by levying a slight protective duty on American beef and flour? |
16450 | Why not turn their attention to these landlords, the police, the travelling coercion magistrates, not forgetting the emergency men? |
16450 | Why? |
16450 | You would not say that Conservatives are rogues?'' |
16450 | and did not the population of Castleisland, who knew your character, scatter that bonfire, and put it out?'' |
16450 | off the rent, and"How''s your family?" |

35708 | Have not Men of great Wit in all times permitted their Understandings to give way to their first Impressions? |
35708 | If a Man can hardly inquire into a Thing he undervalueth, how can a Man of good Sense take pains to understand the World? |
35708 | Or what Prince, because he_ dissembled_? |
35708 | What private Man will throw Stones at him because he_ loved_? |
35184 | And is the Empire whose spirit leads to such results to be spoken of as if it were a mere, ruthless military dominion? |
35184 | But how has this power been used in times of peace? |
35184 | If_ that_ is the meaning of Imperialism, who will cavil at it? |
35184 | Is there any parallel to these events in the history of the world? |
35184 | What are the reasons for this? |
35184 | What were its results? |
35184 | What, then, has the establishment of British power meant in India? |
35184 | Where will you find a parallel to that statement of policy by the supreme government of a ruling race? |
35184 | Would it have been as great, or as valuable, if it had been compulsory? |
29687 | I pray you,she said,"to tell me where my Lord Rochfort is?" |
29687 | Oh, where is my sweet brother? |
29687 | ''Never better?'' |
29687 | --"But how,"asked Mrs. Cousins, very naturally,"how came any such things to be spoken of at all?" |
29687 | And folk were as wise that time as they be now; and since they could never find remedy, how should remedy be found by us? |
29687 | And my wife said,"What should be the cause?" |
29687 | And then she said,"Mr. Kingston, shall I die without justice?" |
29687 | Can we suppose that he designed to dupe Henry into submission by a promise which he had predetermined to break? |
29687 | Extraordinary as it must seem, the pope certainly bound himself by this engagement: and who can tell with what intention? |
29687 | For what hadst thou, if thy father had not done so? |
29687 | Had the meaning of that awful figure hanging on the torturing cross suddenly revealed itself? |
29687 | He, astonished, said unto me,''Why so?'' |
29687 | If he was persuaded that Henry''s cause_ was_ good, why did he in the following year pronounce finally for Catherine? |
29687 | If the criminality of the king is self- evident to us, how could it have been less than evident to Aske and Lord Darcy? |
29687 | Ireland is set against him, which will never shrink in their quarrel to die in it; and what think ye of Wales? |
29687 | Is it likely that he was in Italy on such an occasion in the interval? |
29687 | On the other hand, what object at such a time can be conceived for falsehood? |
29687 | Or the Duke of Norfolk, the veteran who had won his spurs at Flodden? |
29687 | Or the Duke of Suffolk and Sir William Fitzwilliam, the Wellington and the Nelson of the sixteenth century? |
29687 | Scarcely among the picked scoundrels of Newgate could men be found for such work; and shall we believe it of men like these? |
29687 | She asked him who is that? |
29687 | She inquired the cause why? |
29687 | The question was this:''Master Latimer, do you not think, on your conscience, that you have been suspected of heresy?'' |
29687 | Thus, therefore, with much regret the council decided-- and, in fact, why should they have decided otherwise? |
29687 | We find only an effort to express again the old exhortation of the Wise Man--"Will you hear the beginning and the end of the whole matter? |
29687 | What precepts, what messages have been sent you to apprehend him? |
29687 | What was it? |
29687 | What went you about? |
29687 | What would ye have brought to pass? |
29687 | Whither had he gone, then? |
29687 | Why so? |
29687 | Why, then, was the government so impolitic as to treat him with especial harshness so early in the transaction? |
29687 | [ 127]"I pray you, in God''s name, what did you, so great fathers, so many, so long season, so oft assembled together? |
29687 | [ 139] Are we to believe Foxe''s story that Cromwell was with the Duke of Bourbon at the storming of Rome in May, 1527? |

29687 | why had he imperilled so needlessly the interests of the papacy in England? |
29687 | why had his conduct from the beginning pointed steadily to the conclusion at which he at last arrived? |
35105 | And what woman ever trampled more royally and recklessly upon human hearts? |
35105 | At such an hour as this, in such a place, do the dead come out of their graves? |
35105 | But who can be content that poor Letitia Landon should sleep beneath the pavement of a barrack, with soldiers trampling over her dust? |
35105 | Does Brackenbury still kneel in the cold, lonely, vacant chapel of St. John; or the sad ghost of Monmouth hover in the chancel of St. Peter''s? |
35105 | How looks, to- night, the interior of the chapel of the Foundling hospital? |
35105 | Into what dangers will the great ship plunge? |

10610 | ''Have you read the latter part of Lord J. Russell''s speech?'' |
10610 | ***** What is to be done? |
10610 | --At Sea, April 9th._--Will this letter be delivered to you by the post or by the writer in person? |
10610 | ... Shall I really eat my Christmas dinner with you? |
10610 | Am I likely to find fifty young military officers who would be competent to advise the Ryots on points of so much delicacy? |
10610 | And Frederick-- what will he think of my coming out? |
10610 | And again, was it not equally certain that undeserved aspersions were cast upon the planters? |
10610 | And if we do, what will be its character? |
10610 | And is this really so incontestable a truth that it is a duty not only to hold but to proclaim it? |
10610 | And what is the result? |
10610 | And what will the sum of those experiences be? |
10610 | And wherefore this foreboding? |
10610 | And who are the Americans? |
10610 | And why is it otherwise in India? |
10610 | And with what issues? |
10610 | And, after all, may I not with all submission ask, Is not the question at issue a most momentous one? |
10610 | Are we to stand by and laugh at our dupe, telling him that though our advice got him into the scrape, he must find his own way out of it? |
10610 | Bight or wrong you had better book up, for we are bound to keep the peace, and we shall certainly be down upon you if you kick up a row''? |
10610 | But by whom is this charge to be borne? |
10610 | But how does the case stand with us? |
10610 | But if so, what are the conditions which will entitle railway enterprises of this class to the countenance and encouragement of the Government? |
10610 | But is it indeed so light a matter, even as our constitution now works? |
10610 | But is it the right way? |
10610 | But is it true? |
10610 | But suppose them to be successful, what would be the result? |
10610 | But what does this resolution in favour of an uniform gauge imply? |
10610 | But what is to be done? |
10610 | But wherefore then this anticipation-- if foreboding be not the correct term? |
10610 | Can I do anything to prevent England from calling down on herself God''s curse for brutalities committed on another feeble Oriental race? |
10610 | Could I leave this, the really noblest part of my task, to be worked out by others? |
10610 | Did I ever mention it in my letters? |
10610 | Do not anniversaries stir this great fountain of sadness? |
10610 | Have you returned to your desolate home? |
10610 | How can it be justifiable to adopt the former of these expedients, and sacrilegious to act upon the latter? |
10610 | How has she sought to solve this problem-- to overcome this difficulty? |
10610 | How long can such a state of things be expected to endure? |
10610 | How many since we parted? |
10610 | How, then, does it come to pass, that the labours of their descendants here have been rewarded by a return so much more immediate and abundant? |
10610 | I am waiting for Parkes and the General before I decide as to landing,& c. Is it not strange to be here? |
10610 | If firing had begun, who could tell when it would end? |
10610 | If the rising generation, however, are not educated, what is to become of this island? |
10610 | If this goes on one fortnight after we have captured the town, when is it to stop?... |
10610 | Is education necessary to qualify the peasantry to carry on the rude field operations of slavery? |
10610 | Is it a light matter that the Crown should have the power of dissolving Parliament; in other words, of deposing the tyrant at will? |
10610 | Is it indeed true( he wrote to Lady Elgin)? |
10610 | Is it not lawful to be sad? |
10610 | Is it one which has any claim to a special remedy? |
10610 | Is it so or am I to meet some great disappointment when I reach China? |
10610 | Is it the Canadas? |
10610 | Is it to be all undone? |
10610 | Is there not, however, some fallacy in this? |
10610 | It can always be said:"What does Lord Elgin know of India? |
10610 | Let me ask you, who is the worse off for this display of good feeling and fraternal intercourse? |
10610 | May I hope that it is so? |
10610 | May not some persons even entertain the apprehension, that it will indispose them to such pursuits? |
10610 | Now, gentlemen, what is the inference that I would draw from all this? |
10610 | Now, how was this change effected? |
10610 | Or if I had gone home, and left the winding- up of these affairs in the hands of others?... |
10610 | Shall we find any Chinese news there? |
10610 | Shall we meet any vessels at the rendezvous? |
10610 | The first consideration which offers itself in connection with this subject is this,''Why does Canada require to be defended, and against whom?'' |
10610 | There will remain the questions: Is there a grievance at all? |
10610 | This line of argument very naturally raises the question, wherefore then is the maintenance of so large a European army necessary? |
10610 | Twenty years hence, what will be the contrast? |
10610 | Was it not attested even in Parliament, that estates, which used to produce thousands annually, were sinking money year after year? |
10610 | Was it not shown on the face of unquestioned official returns, that the exports of the island had dwindled to one- third of their former amount? |
10610 | Was the result of his hard- won victory only to empty himself of all but the mere outward show of power and authority? |
10610 | Well, then, how has Upper Canada addressed herself to the execution of this great work? |
10610 | Were they not held responsible for results over which they could exercise no manner of control? |
10610 | What ground of consolation or hope does he discover there? |
10610 | What have we now done to put an end to this? |
10610 | What hope was there that a body so constituted would wield such powers with discretion? |
10610 | What in point of fact_ can_ the other suffering interests, of which the_ Times_ writes, do? |
10610 | What is the moral I would endeavour to impress upon you? |
10610 | What reasons can you assign for the refusal, except such as are founded on selfishness, and are, therefore, morally worthless? |
10610 | What then was the scope and extent of application which Canning in action was prepared to give to this policy? |
10610 | What will he do? |
10610 | What will the result be? |
10610 | What will this day bring forth? |
10610 | Whence then are these funds derived? |
10610 | Where are you now?... |
10610 | Who will attend to it now? |
10610 | Who would have supposed a few days ago that poor Ritchie would have been the first summoned? |
10610 | Why was there so much violence on the part of the opposition here last summer, particularly against the Governor- General? |
10610 | Why, then, blame us for discussing the subject?'' |
10610 | Will it be a great disappointment, or will its interest equal the expectations it raises? |
10610 | Will you think me mad? |
10610 | Would he back me?... |
10610 | Would it have been better for me if I had had more engrossing positive work? |
10610 | Would it have happened if I had given way to those who wished me to carry fire and sword through all the country villages? |
10610 | Would this have been wise or humane for a little bravado, or that the country might not be alarmed for a day or two?'' |

10610 | _ Chi sa?_... You will like to have a complete record of my experiences during my long absence. |
10610 | _ July 10th_.--What will the House of Commons say when the bill which has to be paid for this war is presented? |

10610 | and against whom? |
10610 | and if we undertake the latter task, how far will it lead us? |
10610 | and was it not natural that, having been thus calumniated, they should be somewhat impatient of advice? |

18511 | And what will he give to my friend, the king of Norway? |
18511 | And who are you? |
18511 | But what of that? 18511 But who is your companion?" |
18511 | Can you not borrow the sum? |
18511 | Can you swim? |
18511 | Do they fancy that I am fool enough to give up my plans because a monk dreams or an old woman sneezes? 18511 Do they take me for an Englishman, with their dreams?" |
18511 | Do you agree to surrender the castle and all within it at the end of that time? |
18511 | Do you bring a message from General Elphinstone,--from the army? |
18511 | Do? 18511 Edward''s army? |
18511 | From what country do these young men come? |
18511 | Has he sent you hither to carry shadows? 18511 Hast thou brought my pay?" |
18511 | Have any of the English, that joined hands with the Scots, been taken? |
18511 | How and whither? |
18511 | I am your king and lord, good people,he boldly addressed them;"what will ye?" |
18511 | Is it not time we should dine? |
18511 | Is it so little, then? |
18511 | Is your pain great? |
18511 | It is thick enough to hide us, you think? |
18511 | King Richard,said Wat,"dost thou see all my men there?" |
18511 | My good woman,he said,"can you be faithful to a distressed cavalier?" |
18511 | Now, then, go on with thy work; what art thou looking about for? |
18511 | Part? |
18511 | Rumor, then, has lied, and she is but an every- day woman, after all? |
18511 | There; do you see? |
18511 | To whom shall I yield? |
18511 | Very well,answered Buckingham;"but how is it to be done?" |
18511 | Well, Hardy, how goes the day with us? |
18511 | What boat is that? 18511 What brings you so late?" |
18511 | What cheer? |
18511 | What has put such nonsense into your pate? |
18511 | What have you seen that should turn you? |
18511 | What is amiss? |
18511 | What kind of man was he you call the king? |
18511 | What means all this, good sirs? |
18511 | What more will you give the knight for a full release? |
18511 | What motive had you? |
18511 | What need ye, my masters? |

18511 | A few moments of silence passed; then he said in the same low tone,--"What would become of my poor Lady Hamilton if she knew my situation?" |
18511 | Amity between the two nations; a century of peace and friendship? |
18511 | And what have they done that they should be beyond mercy?" |
18511 | And what is the name of their king?" |
18511 | And you?" |
18511 | Before he could be rescued he must be found, and how should this be done? |
18511 | But were not those the days of chivalry? |
18511 | But what was faith, what an oath, when a crown was the prize? |
18511 | By what right are they whom we call lords greater folk than we? |
18511 | Did his coming in this sad plight portend some dark disaster? |
18511 | Did it mean repulse or victory? |
18511 | For centuries the meetings of French and English kings had been hostile; could they now be trusted to be peaceful? |
18511 | From what country come they?" |

18511 | How came he in such a condition? |
18511 | How did they hope to escape? |
18511 | How were the other two to gain their liberty? |
18511 | In conclusion, the question may be asked, Who was Perkin Warbeck? |
18511 | Is she indeed the marvellous beauty that rumor tells, or has fame, the liar, played us one of his old tricks?" |
18511 | Is there anything convenient to drink? |
18511 | Mainwaring had been wrong,--was the ferryman right?--was a duel the purpose of this flight in disguise? |
18511 | Meanwhile, what had become of the disconsolate Lady Arabella? |

18511 | The flour- sprinkled fellow heard their footsteps in the darkness, and called out,--"Who goes there?" |
18511 | Then, under command of the king, one of his noble followers rode up to the opposing line and called out,--"Is Tostig, the son of Godwin, here?" |
18511 | Well, well, what mad frolic is afoot? |
18511 | Were the Londoners mad? |
18511 | Were these her humbled citizens of London? |
18511 | Were they pushing the bill through the House in defiance of the army? |
18511 | What brings you here then, sirrah, if you fetch no money?" |
18511 | What did it mean? |
18511 | What had become of them? |
18511 | What had he to tell of the army in the field? |
18511 | What if, in another look, this fellow should get a nearer glimpse at the truth? |
18511 | What time have we to make merry here and still reach England with the rest?" |
18511 | What was its result? |
18511 | What was to be done for the safety of the other two? |
18511 | Who should it be? |
18511 | Who was he? |
18511 | Who was he? |

26493 | I painted this picture to the Chinese of 1900:''Who are those people hanging about with jinrickshas?'' |
26493 | I said that might be, but what was the use of talking about it? |
26493 | I said,''Well, will you commission me to do so, from you, with any remarks I like to make as to the futility of your words?'' |
26493 | I said,''Why do you not tell him so?'' |

26493 | They said''When?'' |
26493 | They said,''Had I seen Wolseley, and did I understand their ideas?'' |
26493 | They were crystallised in the phrase,"Why pay a man more at Simla than at Hongkong?" |
26493 | They were pleased, and said''That was their idea; would I go?'' |
26493 | Was that their function? |
26493 | Was the conduct of Cavagnari and his people discreet in a fanatical city? |
26493 | We have trouble enough with the fanatics of India; why should we go out of our way to add to their numbers? |
26493 | Were not those who forced Cavagnari on Yacoob against his protest equally responsible with him? |

22546 | Tell me, I pray you, Mr. Walpole,he said,"if the council may rack me, or put me to torment, after the time I am condemned, or no?" |
22546 | The noblemen,he was told,"bare him good- will; he was still strong, and might live many years, why should he cut them short?" |
22546 | Well, Sir Nicholas, what news? |
22546 | Well,Mary bitterly answered,"you persevere in your truth stiffly; belike you will not confess that you have been wrongly punished?" |
22546 | What, my friend,he said to a warder who was an old acquaintance there,"how do you? |
22546 | Who can save that will be lost? 22546 Who can stay him that willingly runneth into perdition?" |
22546 | You pretend that you have used no instruments but reason to lead men after you; what instrument did the devil use to seduce our parents in Paradise? 22546 And how does she now shine out in loveliness? 22546 And what could that crime be? 22546 And what marvel was it? 22546 And, thinkest thou not, Gilbert, this world is now come? 22546 As they were leaving the church Hooper was heard to say,Come, brother Rogers, must we two take this matter first in hand and fry these faggots?" |
22546 | But how be they used afterwards? |
22546 | But what will ye more? |
22546 | Can it be Mary that is so slow to open? |
22546 | Could he expound Scripture, that he read it thus to himself? |
22546 | Doth the queen think the king will remain in England with giving him the realm? |

22546 | If he led the army in person, whom could he leave in charge of London, the Tower, and Lady Jane? |
22546 | If not with Pole, with whom did the guilt rest? |
22546 | It is not so strange as the sudden conversion of the late duke; for who could have thought, said she, he would have so done? |
22546 | May you not be glad of that, mother?" |
22546 | Quis non ingemuit et arsit dolore? |
22546 | Shall I despair? |

22546 | Should I, who am young and in my few years, forsake my faith for the love of life? |
22546 | The choice of a pope, however, would signify little, if only the child could be born; but where was the child? |

22546 | Why does not that nation make haste now to do Peter reverence? |
22546 | Why had he not written? |
22546 | Why had she never{ p.138} received one courteous word from him? |
22546 | Why is it closed to Peter? |
22546 | Why, it may well be asked, did not the lords and gentlemen of England rise and trample down the perpetrators of these devilish enormities? |
22546 | Why, then, has her memory been covered through centuries with scorn and obloquy? |
22546 | Yet why should Mary fear now when Herod is dead? |
22546 | [ 289] Which of you, then, said Gardiner, with dexterous ingenuity, will be responsible for the safe keeping of her person? |

2614 | And what assistance was she likely to have from abroad? |
2614 | And what reason could be given for making such a distinction? |
2614 | And what right had strangers to interfere? |
2614 | And what right had the Old Company to more than strict justice? |
2614 | And what were the advantages which could be set off against such evils? |
2614 | And why should this be? |
2614 | And, as to what is said about his birthplace, is there not already ill humour enough in Scotland? |

2614 | But was it of France alone that a nation so enlightened as the English must be jealous? |

2614 | Does it lie in the mouth of a son of that house to blame the judicious munificence of a wise and good King? |
2614 | Has not the failure of that unhappy expedition to Darien raised a sufficiently bitter feeling against us throughout that kingdom? |
2614 | How was it that so many of the kingdoms of modern Europe had been transformed from limited into absolute monarchies? |
2614 | How would they like to have bills of supply with bills of attainder tacked to them?" |
2614 | How, it was asked on the other side, can the fundamental laws of a monarchy be annulled by any authority but that of the supreme legislature? |
2614 | Might not the two great rivals be induced to make to a third party concessions such as neither could reasonably be expected to make to the other? |

2614 | The great question was instantly raised; What provision should be made for the defence of the realm? |
2614 | The question was whether a soldier was to be permitted to insult English gentlemen, and, if they murmured, to cut their throats? |
2614 | The time drew near at which the Houses must reassemble; and how were the Commons to be managed? |
2614 | These petitioners who implored the legislature to deal indulgently with them in their adversity, how had they used their boundless prosperity? |
2614 | Was any part of this great force to be retained in the service of the State? |
2614 | Was it certain that the united force of all her neighbours would be sufficient to compel her to relinquish her prey? |
2614 | Was it forgotten that the House of Austria had once aspired to universal dominion? |
2614 | Was it not certain that the contest would be long and terrible? |
2614 | Was it possible that the dispute might be compromised? |
2614 | Were our countrymen naturally inferior to men of other races in any of the qualities which, under proper training, make excellent soldiers? |

21624 | He may live without lore-- what is knowledge but grieving? 21624 It was shortly after the publication of_ Essays and Reviews_ that Jowett, meeting Coxe, enquired:--"Have you read my essay?" |
21624 | Not be at Lord''s, my boy? 21624 Not really? |

21624 | _ Placetne igitur vobis huic nomini assentire?_being the form in which the question was proposed. |
21624 | ''And why?'' |

21624 | ''Do you see those four fellows seated opposite to us? |

21624 | --_From a Memorial Sermon by B. Jowett._ V OXONIANA"Mind''st thou the bells? |
21624 | A friend of mine once asked the Queen this plain question:"When a Prime Minister goes out, does he recommend a successor?" |
21624 | And who is to preside over these changes?" |
21624 | Another, quite unmoved by the pectoral cross and crimson soutane, asked artlessly,"What was your college?" |
21624 | Are we listening to St. John the Baptist or St. John the Evangelist? |
21624 | As the ladies in_ Cranford_ said--"What can it matter what we wear here, where everyone knows who we are?" |
21624 | Bill Juffs, as used to go birds- nesting with you"; or,"You remember my old dad, my lord? |
21624 | But I turn to the Revised Version, and what do I read? |
21624 | But can you wonder? |
21624 | But where is the man that can live without dining?" |
21624 | Can you tell me what he means?" |

21624 | He may live without hope-- what is hope but deceiving? |
21624 | He may live without love-- what is passion but pining? |
21624 | Hers of the Book, the tripled Crown? |
21624 | If such a thing had been proposed, what would have happened? |
21624 | Is it to be favourite or brilliant members of a society which keeps want and misery at a distance? |
21624 | Is it to continue, with fewer restrictions, the amusements which have engrossed you here? |
21624 | Is that Dr. Pusey? |
21624 | Is this your idea of life? |
21624 | My Doctor says,"Do you feel as if you could manage a chop? |
21624 | Need I say that I allude to the vexed question of the Athanasian Creed?" |
21624 | No? |
21624 | Non tibi Natus Quem jam signavit Diva Loquela suum? |
21624 | Perhaps the venue was laid in a fox- hunting country, and then the air was full of such voices as these:"Were you out with the Squire to- day?" |
21624 | Requies data nulla loquelæ Quæ miseras aures his et ubique premit? |
21624 | Shocking, is n''t it? |
21624 | The Dean smiled, with the graceful pleasure of an old man honoured by a younger one, and said,"Yes? |
21624 | Then"the courtly manners of the old school"--when did they go out? |
21624 | Then, again, as a mere matter of style, when did Doctors abandon the majestic"We,"which formerly they shared with Kings and Editors? |
21624 | Then, again, when was it first recognized as possible to take a pulse without the assistance of a gold chronometer? |
21624 | This petulant ejaculation drew from Dr. Butler the following remonstrance: Semper ego auditor? |
21624 | To one rather bumptious youth he said:--"And what are you going to do with your life?" |
21624 | What is your ambition? |
21624 | What was the influence which tamed him? |
21624 | What was the next step to be? |
21624 | What was the text?" |
21624 | What would he have felt if he had lived to see the Reform Bills of 1867 and 1885? |
21624 | What''s this? |
21624 | When I came in to dress, this dialogue ensued:"Have you left all those cards?" |
21624 | When did doctors abandon black cloth, and betake themselves( like Newman, when he seceded to the Church of Rome) to grey trousers? |
21624 | Where can we see such beautiful women, such gallant cavaliers, such fine horses, such brilliant equipages? |
21624 | Where did you get it from?" |
21624 | Which is it? |
21624 | Why did not Lord Beaconsfield dissolve Parliament in July, 1878, when he returned in a blaze of triumph from the Congress of Berlin? |
21624 | Why?" |
21624 | Will you come across the Thames, and lend us a hand?" |
21624 | Will you come?" |
21624 | Would this content you? |
21624 | You know he''s an atheist? |
21624 | You, young lover, Drumming her old ones forth from town, Know you the secret none discover? |
21624 | _ Jack London._ GRAIN OR CHAFF? |
21624 | _ Know you the secret none discover_--none, that is, while they still are undergraduates? |
21624 | _ Vexilla regis prodeunt._ Yes, but of which King? |
21624 | my dear fellow-- an ancestor of yours tried? |
32813 | Did the Queen leave her chamber any night at Lincoln or elsewhere during her recent progress with the King? |
32813 | How can I choose a wife by deputy? |
32813 | How does your Grace like the Queen? |
32813 | How like you the look of the city, sweetheart? |
32813 | Must I needs against my will put my neck into the yoke? |
32813 | Sire,said Cromwell to the King,"the Pope refuses you a divorce... why wait for his consent? |
32813 | Why are you sorry for her? |
32813 | Why, darling,said the King,"how happeneth it you are not merrier? |
32813 | But how? |
32813 | Every Englishman is master in his own house, and why should not you be so in England? |
32813 | Had not his new French brother- in- law done the like years ago? |
32813 | Had not the Pope given his dispensation? |
32813 | My health is metely good; and I trust in God, he that sent me the last( illness?) |
32813 | Now, I think I have satisfied you.... What else do you want to know? |
32813 | One said she excelled the Duchess( of Milan?) |
32813 | Other kings had obtained divorces easily enough from Rome: why not he? |
32813 | Ought a foreign prelate to share your power with you? |
32813 | The Admiral of France, already in no very amiable mood, frowned angrily, and, turning to her, said,"Are you laughing at me, madam, or what?" |
32813 | The King is also said to fancy a daughter of Mistress Albart(?) |
32813 | Turning to Russell, he asked,"Do you think this woman so fair or of such beauty as report has made her?" |
32813 | What did Ayala advise? |
32813 | What more could wife or stateswoman ask? |
32813 | Where was he? |
32813 | Why lose so much time? |
32813 | Why should she write to him before he wrote to her? |
32813 | Would the lady, he asked, make a formal protestation before notaries that she was free from all contracts? |
32813 | Your kingdom is a two- headed monster: will you bear such an anomaly any longer? |
32813 | [ 186]"And how about Milan?" |
32813 | continued the King,"whom should men trust? |
32813 | doth it to the best and will shortly turn it(_ i.e._ like?) |
32813 | he asked; and did not the peace of England and Spain depend upon the marriage? |
32813 | he said,"is it not as I told you? |
32813 | is not the Queen abed yet?" |
32813 | is there no other remedy?" |
32813 | when he had political objects to serve? |
36967 | Why did he do it? 36967 Why did he do it? 36967 Why did he? |
36967 | remarked to him,"I believe you are of the family of the Duke of Somerset?" |
10797 | In wax, madam? |
10797 | Sir? |
10797 | The young prince, sir? |
10797 | WHO''S YOUR FAT FRIEND? |
10797 | Yes, in wax, I suppose? |
10797 | ''Ah,''cried the Beau,''how d''ye do, Byng? |
10797 | ''And does that thought affect thee too, The thought of Sylvio''s death, That he who only breath''d for you, Must yield that faithful breath? |
10797 | ''And pray, sir, who is that fine looking person?'' |
10797 | ''And the carriage?'' |
10797 | ''And who caught the huge salmon so neatly?'' |
10797 | ''And, I say, William, you''ll see Lizzy goes to schule reg''lar?'' |
10797 | ''And, I say, William, you''ll see Tommy''s breeches is mended against he goes to schule again?'' |
10797 | ''And, I say, William, you''ll see the old sow do n''t kill her young uns?'' |
10797 | ''Are not the devils escaped out of the swine, and overrunning the earth headlong?'' |
10797 | ''Ask''st thou how long my love will stay, When all that''s new is past? |
10797 | ''Because the wise men came from the East,''''So, then, sa- ar-- you think me a fool?'' |
10797 | ''Bless me, is it Queen Street?'' |
10797 | ''Certainly, sir; would you like any more?--fifty or a hundred?'' |
10797 | ''Did you ever,''he once asked,''dine out in the country? |
10797 | ''Do you not think Denman handsome?'' |
10797 | ''Does he canter well?'' |
10797 | ''Have you not received our letter?'' |
10797 | ''How does he know we will_ permit_ him? |
10797 | ''It ca n''t be Charles Street?'' |
10797 | ''It must be Oxford Street?'' |
10797 | ''King Street?'' |
10797 | ''My mother, when I learn''d that thou wast dead, Say, wast thou conscious of the tears I shed? |
10797 | ''Nay, my good fellow,''was the answer to this peroration,''travelling from the East? |
10797 | ''No? |
10797 | ''Now, Madam,''writes his friend,''is not this true inspiration as well as true wit? |
10797 | ''Pay your bills, sir? |
10797 | ''Perhaps, sir, you mean John Street?'' |
10797 | ''She asked my father,''Horace Walpole relates,''what the alteration might possibly cost?'' |
10797 | ''Then who was it killed the wild duck at that distance?'' |
10797 | ''Two or three?'' |
10797 | ''Was it your setter who behaved so well?'' |
10797 | ''Well, do you return to dinner?'' |
10797 | ''What better foundation for friendship,''he asks,''than similarity of tastes?'' |
10797 | ''What could I do, my dear_ fellar_,''he lisped,''when I actually saw Lady Mary eat cabbage?'' |
10797 | ''What have you done, Madame,''said a foreigner to her,''with the poor man I used to see here, who never spoke a word?'' |
10797 | ''Who''s your friend, Brummell?'' |
10797 | ''Who?'' |
10797 | ''Whom? |
10797 | ''Why, my dear boy, why?'' |
10797 | ''Why, what?'' |
10797 | ''You know Gunter?'' |
10797 | --''And, I say, William, you''ll see I''m laid proper in the yard?'' |
10797 | --''Are you?'' |
10797 | --''Well, what is my Lord Holland to me?'' |
10797 | Again:''Dear George, were not the playing- fields at Eton food for all manner of flights? |
10797 | And for what? |
10797 | Appeal to whom? |
10797 | Are you?'' |
10797 | At Brookes''one evening the Beau and the Brewer were playing at the same table,''Come,_ Mash- tub_'', cried the''gentleman,''''what do you set?'' |
10797 | Boswell.--''Did not he think of exhibiting you, sir?'' |
10797 | But where are those Anakim of the bottle, who_ could_ floor their two of port and one of Madeira, though the said two and one floored them in turn? |
10797 | Could anything be more gross or more ill- bred? |
10797 | Could she have picked out a fitter person to be gracious to? |
10797 | Could she have talked so pleasantly to Selwyn?'' |
10797 | Did he storm? |
10797 | Do you mind showing me his paces?'' |
10797 | Do you wonder I say better things than anybody?'' |
10797 | For whom, for what should he dress and polish his boots at such a quiet place as Caen? |
10797 | God forgive us, we are all sinners; and if we weep not for this man''s deficiency, how shall we ask tears when our day comes? |
10797 | God grant that they may be so; or who of us would escape? |
10797 | Had any one asked him in which of the four quarters of the world Guinea is situated, could he have told?'' |
10797 | He said,"In wax, I suppose?" |
10797 | Hovered thy spirit o''er thy sorrowing son? |
10797 | How could it be otherwise? |
10797 | How long, ah Delia, can I say How long my life will last? |
10797 | How, indeed, could he? |
10797 | In 1762 the Doctor, hearing they had given Sheridan a pension of two hundred a year, exclaimed,''What have they given_ him_ a pension? |
10797 | In the midst of his difficulties he never ceased to entertain his friends, and''why should he not do so, since he had not to pay?'' |
10797 | Is there no_ court_ in England but the king''s? |
10797 | It is because they are cleverer? |
10797 | My_ dear_ sir, what an unfortunate blunder; wrong house-- what must you think of such an intrusion? |
10797 | People as good as the Walpoles lived in their gable- ended, moderate- sized mansions; and who was Sir Robert, to set them at so immense a distance? |
10797 | Sheridan was not naturally mean, though he descended to meanness when hard pressed-- what man of his stamp does not? |
10797 | Suddenly, nudging Sir James, he whispered,''Is that the great Sir Sydney Smith?'' |
10797 | The age that patronises a''Punch''every Saturday? |
10797 | The''Wales, ring the bell,''was sufficient proof of his impudence, but''Who''s your fat friend?'' |
10797 | Then he had some £ 25,000 as capital and how could he best invest it? |
10797 | There is the_ Court_ of Chancery, the_ Court_ of Exchequer, the_ Court_ of King''s Bench,& c."Do n''t you love her? |
10797 | To what? |
10797 | Walpole?'' |
10797 | Walpole?'' |
10797 | Walpole?'' |
10797 | Walpole?'' |
10797 | Was it worth the pomp of the splendid funeral and the grand hypocrisy of grief with which it was borne to Westminster Abbey? |
10797 | Was not rather the wretched old man, while he yet struggled on in life, worth this outlay, worth this show of sympathy? |
10797 | Well might George II., seeing him go to court say:''I see Dodington here sometimes, what does he come for?'' |
10797 | What can thy weak and ill- tun''d voice avail, When on that theme both Young and Thomson fail?'' |
10797 | What do you think my Lady intends?'' |
10797 | What great authors have not experienced the same disappointments? |
10797 | What have wits and beaux and men of society to do with poets and beggars? |
10797 | What is it that disarms us when we review thy life, and wrings from us a tear when we should utter a reproach? |
10797 | What is it? |
10797 | What prayer can wild, unrestrained, unheeding Genius utter with more fervency? |
10797 | What publisher will consent to undertake a work because some lord or lady recommended it to his notice? |
10797 | What recked the dead of the four noble pall- bearers-- the Duke of Bedford, the Earl of Lauderdale, Earl Mulgrave, and the Bishop of London? |
10797 | What writer cares for individual opinion, except as it tends to sweep up the gross amount of public blame or censure? |
10797 | When Craggs got into a coach with him, he exclaimed,''Why, Arthur, I am always getting up behind, are not you?'' |
10797 | When asked by some one, as he sauntered out of the house--''Is the House up?'' |
10797 | When seeing him beneath, she put her head out, and called out to him,''Good evening, Mr. Brummell, wo n''t you come up and take tea?'' |
10797 | When the bishops entered in full episcopal costume, she applied to Hook to know who were''those gentlemen?'' |
10797 | Where are the topers of yore? |
10797 | Who but a courtier could give one glance at a portrait of George I., though by Kneller? |
10797 | Who can ever forget the small, quiet dinners given by Mackintosh when living out of Parliament, and out of office in Cadogan Place? |
10797 | Who can say the same of a successful barrister, or of a popular orator? |
10797 | Who cares whether his hopes of political preferment were or were not gratified? |
10797 | Who minds whether the time- serving Bubb Dodington went over to Lord Bute or not? |
10797 | Who now cares much for the court intrigues which severed Sir Robert Walpole and Bubb Dodington? |
10797 | Who would be so naïve as to sneer at the author of''The Art of Dining?'' |
10797 | Who would live the life of revelry that Sheridan lived to have such an end? |
10797 | Why did he not live quietly? |
10797 | Why, forsooth? |
10797 | [ 8: Another version is that Tom replied:''You do n''t happen to have it about you, sir, do you?''] |
10797 | and his son, during which each party devoutly wished the other dead? |
10797 | did he hold her to her engagement? |
10797 | did he shackle himself with a young wife, who would only learn to hate him for his persinacity? |
10797 | do n''t I grow old?'' |
10797 | gambler, spendthrift, debtor, as thou wert, what is it that shakes from our hand the stone we would fling at thee? |
10797 | how could you do that?'' |
10797 | how do you know?'' |
10797 | just so; Piccadilly, of course?'' |
10797 | was it worth £ 500--diseased, rotting as it was, and about to be given for nothing to mother earth? |
10797 | why not, like Fox, marry the unhappy woman whom he had made the mother of his children, and content himself with trimming vines and rearing tulips? |
28268 | Does M. Fabre not feel himself turning French again? |
28268 | Does Monsieur write comedies or tragedies? |
28268 | _ Uom, sei tu grande o vile? 28268 After every sentence almost he would ask, in Italian,''Do you understand?'' 28268 And as to harm to the institutions of society, what were those institutions, and what was their value, that they should be respected? 28268 And what were these scruples? 28268 As to him, why should he condescend to think about state receptions, galas, pensions, kings and queens, and similar low things? 28268 But who can tell what there may have been before beneath the surface? 28268 But who should mould that matter? 28268 Did Alfieri enjoy receiving letters such as these? 28268 Did it never occur to Alfieri that his own character, whose faults during youth he so keenly appreciated, was not improving with years? 28268 Give up Louise d''Albany, forget her; and bid her, who lived only in him, whom a few years must free, forget him at the price of breaking her heart? 28268 I am a useless creature in it; and why should I suffer when it is of no use to anyone? 28268 I do nothing in this world; I am useless in it; and where is the use of suffering for nothing? 28268 I feel a disgust for life which is so reasoned out that I say to myself sometimes,''Why do I live? 28268 If she will take no interest, will not Fabre? 28268 Mori, il saprai._("Man, art thou noble or base? |
28268 | To Francesco Gori, therefore, Alfieri went for advice: ought he, or ought he not, to fly from this new love while it was still possible to do so? |
28268 | To please religion? |
28268 | To please society? |
28268 | To please whom should they marry, pray? |
28268 | Was it because her husband had called himself King of England, or because her lover was the author of the play about to be performed? |
28268 | We were separated, and who could tell how long our separation might not last? |
28268 | What are the French? |
28268 | What consideration need any man or any woman waste upon a husband? |
28268 | What could he do? |
28268 | What do I do in this world? |
28268 | What good do I do?'' |
28268 | What if Cardinal York should take part with his brother? |

28268 | Who knows whether I shall ever see it? |
28268 | Whom?" |
28268 | Why should they get married? |
28268 | Would he not appreciate its usefulness and uniqueness sufficiently to see that it did not turn to a mere useless and demoralising love affair? |
28268 | d''Albany came home in her Court toilette, and told him of all these fine doings? |
28268 | was this the realisation of ideal love? |
37000 | What have I to fear? |
13674 | ''And from whence come you, sir?'' |
13674 | ''And where is he?'' |
13674 | ''Nay,''said the squire,''that will I not do: wherefore should I give it thee?'' |
13674 | ''Sir,''said he,''I hight John of Hellenes; but what is your name?'' |
13674 | ''Well, sir,''quoth Redman,''what will you now that I shall do? |
13674 | ''What,''said Tyler,''art thou there? |
13674 | ''Who be you?'' |
13674 | ''Who be you?'' |
13674 | ''Whom have ye taken?'' |
13674 | ''Why so, sir?'' |
13674 | ''Yea truly,''said the king,''wherefore sayest thou?'' |
13674 | ''Yes truly,''quoth the mayor,''thou false stinking knave, shalt thou speak thus in the presence of the king my natural lord? |
13674 | Ah, Percivale, said she, would ye fight with him? |
13674 | Ah, fair nephew, said she, when heard ye tidings of your mother? |
13674 | Ah, fair sir, said Bors, know ye me not? |
13674 | Ah, said he, are ye Galahad? |
13674 | All this Sir Launcelot saw and beheld, for he slept not verily; and he heard him say: O sweet Lord, when shall this sorrow leave me? |
13674 | And he answered and saluted him again, and asked him: What is your name? |
13674 | And men asked him how men might know them that should best do and to achieve the Sangreal? |
13674 | And now, being revived, where are any better to be found? |
13674 | And so rode he into a forest, and there he met with a gentlewoman riding upon a white palfrey, and then she asked him: Sir knight, whither ride ye? |
13674 | And then he alit off his horse, and said: Fair sweet brother, when came ye hither? |
13674 | And then he asked Sir Percivale: How hast thou done sith I departed? |
13674 | And then he said to the man: Canst thou tell me unto some chapel where that I may bury this body? |
13674 | And then he said: Ah, Melias, who hath wounded you? |
13674 | And then they said all: O my lord Sir Launcelot, be that ye? |
13674 | And then this dead man hermit said unto them: Ween you to burn me? |
13674 | And when the French king saw these four knights return again, he tarried till they came to him and said:''Sirs, what tidings?'' |
13674 | And while the king said so, Tyler said to the mayor:''A God''s name what have I said to displease thee?'' |
13674 | And wotest thou wherefore? |
13674 | But how am I fallen from the market into the ale- house? |
13674 | But how far have I waded in this point, or how far may I sail in such a large sea? |
13674 | But then she said: Sir Percivale, wot ye what I am? |
13674 | But what do I spend my time in the rehearsal of these filthinesses? |
13674 | But what do I talk of these things, or desire the suppression of bodgers, being a minister? |
13674 | But what for that? |
13674 | But what have I to do with this matter, or rather so great a quantity, wherewith I am not acquainted? |
13674 | But what is that in all the world which avarice and negligence will not corrupt and impair? |
13674 | But what stand I upon this impertinent discourse? |
13674 | But whither am I digressed? |
13674 | But whither am I slipped? |
13674 | But who dare find fault with them, when they have once a licence? |
13674 | Damosel, said Sir Percivale, who hath disherited you? |
13674 | Damosel, why say you so? |
13674 | Fair lords, said he, what adventure brought you hither? |
13674 | For, beside the injury received of their superiors, how was King John dealt withal by the vile Cistertians at Lincoln in the second of his reign? |
13674 | How may that be? |
13674 | Howbeit, what care our great encroachers? |
13674 | If I would not refuse you? |
13674 | Is that sooth? |
13674 | It shall be done, said Galahad, but where is he that hath wounded you? |
13674 | Knew ye not the maid? |
13674 | Madam, said he, what would ye that I did? |
13674 | Now tell me, said Sir Bors, what is that Pridam le Noire? |
13674 | Now who taught you my name? |
13674 | Now wotest thou what I am? |
13674 | Now, fair aunt, tell me what is the knight? |
13674 | Now, said Galahad, is she here for whom this castle was lost? |
13674 | Now, said Galahad, where shall we find the gentlewoman that shall make new girdles to the sword? |
13674 | Now, said King Evelake, where shall I put this shield, that this worthy knight may have it? |
13674 | Now, said the fellowship, what is the name of the sword, and what shall we call it? |
13674 | Of what folks shall it be? |
13674 | Say me, said Sir Bors, canst thou tell me of any adventure? |
13674 | Shall I go any further? |
13674 | Sir, said Bors, be ye a priest? |
13674 | Sir, said Galahad, by this shield be many marvels fallen? |
13674 | Sir, said Galahad, why shall not these other fellows go with us? |
13674 | Sir, said Gawaine, can thou teach us to any hermit? |
13674 | Sir, said Sir Bors unto Sir Launcelot, what adventure hath brought you hither, for we weened tomorn to have found you at Camelot? |
13674 | Sir, said Sir Percivale, what signifieth my dream that I dreamed this night? |
13674 | Sir, said he, be ye of King Arthur''s court and of the fellowship of the Round Table? |
13674 | Sir, said she, why would ye wit? |
13674 | Sir, said the good man, be ye not Sir Launcelot du Lake? |
13674 | Sir, said the old man, of whence be ye? |
13674 | Sir, said the squire, what is your name? |
13674 | Sir, what penance shall I do? |
13674 | Sirs, said Sir Galahad, what adventure brought you hither? |
13674 | So a lady that stood by the queen said: Madam, for God''s sake ought he of right to be so good a knight? |
13674 | So when he was unarmed, then said the damosel: Madam, shall we abide here all this day? |
13674 | Their fardingals, and diversely coloured nether stocks of silk, jerdsey, and such like, whereby their bodies are rather deformed than commended? |
13674 | Then Sir Galahad was a little ashamed and said: Madam, sith ye know in certain, wherefore do ye ask it me? |
13674 | Then Sir Launcelot said: Father, what shall I do? |
13674 | Then asked he him: Hast thou heard the tokens o£ thy dream the which I have told to you? |
13674 | Then came Bors to the maid and said: How seemeth it you? |
13674 | Then came the queen unto Launcelot, and said: Will ye leave us at this high feast? |
13674 | Then first spake Gawaine and said: Ector, have ye heard these words? |
13674 | Then he overtook a man clothed in a religious clothing, and rode on a strong black horse blacker than a bear, and said: Sir knight, what seek you? |
13674 | Then said Sir Launcelot: Cometh this desire of himself? |
13674 | Then said he to Galahad: Son, wotest thou what I hold betwixt my hands? |
13674 | Then said he: Ye be welcome, but of whence be ye? |
13674 | Then said she: Who shall let me blood? |
13674 | Then said the gentlewoman: Percivale, wot ye what I am? |
13674 | Then said the good man unto Launcelot: Of whence be ye? |
13674 | Then said the good man: Were ye confessed sith ye entered into the quest of the Sangreal? |
13674 | Then she made sorrow and said: Ah, Lord God, wherefore granted ye to hold my land, whereof I should now be disherited without reason and right? |
13674 | Then the king answered quickly and said:''Wherefore? |
13674 | Then the king said:''Is my son dead or hurt or on the earth felled?'' |
13674 | Then the lord Clermont said:''Chandos, how long have ye taken on you to bear my device?'' |
13674 | Then the lords said among themselves:''What shall we do? |
13674 | Then will ye make me a knight? |
13674 | There were many within the city of their accord, and so they drew together and said:''Why do we not let these good people enter into the city? |
13674 | Thus, said she, was not King Pelles, your grandsire, maimed for his hardiness? |
13674 | Well, said Sir Percivale, what wouldst thou that I did? |
13674 | Well, said they, will ye die? |
13674 | What are ye, said Sir Percivale, that proffered me thus great kindness? |
13674 | What are ye? |
13674 | What are ye? |
13674 | What be they? |
13674 | What have we deserved, or why should we be kept thus in servage? |
13674 | What have ye seen? |
13674 | What knight was he that had you in the forest? |
13674 | What seek ye in this country? |
13674 | What shall I give you? |

13674 | With whom, said Sir Percivale, shall I fight? |
13674 | Yea, sir forsooth, said he; why, sir, ask ye me that? |
13674 | and when shall the holy vessel come by me, wherethrough I shall be blessed? |

13674 | of the Clee Hills in Shropshire, which come within four miles of Ludlow, and are divided from some part of Worcester by the Leme? |
13674 | what have we to do with such Arabian and Grecian stuff as is daily brought from those parties which lie in another clime? |
13674 | what will ye say?'' |
34477 | Is there not wars? |
34477 | And, after all, what could, or would, the dissentients do about it? |
34477 | Are we going to allow their sacrifices to be as naught? |
34477 | But what about Ireland? |
34477 | Did they mean the right to Home Rule, or to the constitution of 1782 or to an Irish Republic? |
34477 | How could they accomplish this? |
34477 | If men had died for Ireland( men asked) facing the old enemy, what lesser sacrifice could be called too great? |
34477 | If officers refused to act against Ulster why should a private be required to fire upon strikers? |
34477 | If officers were to have the option of obeying orders or not at their will why should a like latitude be denied the common soldier? |
34477 | Ireland one and Ireland free-- is not this the definition of Ireland a Nation? |
34477 | It was followed by"Shall Ireland be Divided?" |
34477 | Or are we going to follow in their footsteps at the Rising of the Moon?" |
34477 | Sinn Fein was involved in the general feeling; if it had not fomented the Rising, what had it done to discourage it? |
34477 | The official statement was pitilessly analysed in a pamphlet published by_ New Ireland_ entitled"The Plot: German or English?" |
34477 | They regarded ignorance as barbarous and disgraceful; and what was ignorance if it was not inability to write, read, and speak the English tongue? |
34477 | They underrated( as who then did not?) |
34477 | They were, besides, likely to give rise to the question which_ Irish Opinion_( the Irish Labour weekly) put"Is the object political or economic?" |
34477 | Two books written by James K. Maguire and printed by the Wolfe Tone Publishing Co. of New York,"What Could Germany do for Ireland?" |
34477 | Was it not the stimulus which had spurred more daring spirits into action? |
34477 | Was the freedom of Ireland then not a matter of right but the result of a bargain-- the equivalent of how many fighting men? |
34477 | What is the use of bilingualism to a dead man?" |
34477 | Who draws first blood for Ireland? |
34477 | Who imputes blame to them for this? |
34477 | Who strikes the first blow for Ireland? |
34477 | Who wins a wreath that will be green for ever?" |
34477 | Why not unite and get rid of the English? |
34477 | Would the two Irish parties sink their differences in the same way in the interest of the Empire? |

34778 | These men were-- what shall we say? |
34778 | They could scarcely on such a raw night have been asleep and why should they have been absent? |

33636 | But what was the price paid for this improvement in our streets? |
33636 | Can we go on working their ruin, damning them body and soul? |
33636 | Do the parents of the youth of this country realise the situation? |
33636 | Does any one think that, if we had begun to prepare after{ 185} Agadir, there would have been war? |

32405 | And to what a height may even a small beginning grow in time? |
32405 | And what can a poor creature do, in terror of his life, surrounded by a pack of ruffians, and no assistance near? |
32405 | And what is worse, no soul to appeal to but merciless creatures, who answer but in laughter, surliness, contradiction, and too often stripes? |

17411 | ( 38) Who informed Margaret, that she might inform Perkin, of what passed in sanctuary? |
17411 | And had such weak step been taken, could the murder itself have remained a problem? |
17411 | And if guilty, how came she to stop the career of her intrigues? |
17411 | And in favour of whom? |
17411 | And who can believe his pretended confession afterwards? |
17411 | And who can tell whether the suddenness of the execution was not the effect of necessity? |
17411 | Are there outward and visible signs of a bloody nature? |
17411 | As to the heads of the Yorkists;(47) how does it appear they concurred in the projected match? |
17411 | Ay; and who told her what passed in the Tower? |
17411 | But being unlikely, was it not more natural for him to think, that it never was urged by Richard? |
17411 | But can this accusation be allowed gravely? |
17411 | But how could lord Bacon stop there? |
17411 | But why was no enquiry made after Greene and the page? |
17411 | Can it be doubted now but that Richard meant to have it thought that his assumption of the crown was only temporary? |
17411 | Could Richard be guilty, and the archbishops be blameless? |
17411 | Could Sir Thomas More be ignorant of this fact? |
17411 | Could a Yorkist have drawn a less disgusting representation? |
17411 | Could both be ignorant what was become of the young princes, when both had negotiated with the queen dowager? |
17411 | Could not the whole court, the whole kingdom of England, so cross- examine this Flemish youth, as to catch him in one lie? |
17411 | Did Grafton hear it pronounced? |
17411 | Did Henry stand in his way, deposed, imprisoned, and now childless? |
17411 | Did Perkin or did he not correspond in his narrative with Tirrel and Dighton? |
17411 | Did he publish his narrative to obscure or elucidate the transaction? |
17411 | Did he try to leave it so? |
17411 | Did king James bestow his kinswoman on Perkin, on the strength of such a fable? |
17411 | Did not they to the end endeavour to defeat and overturn it? |
17411 | Did that look like poison? |
17411 | Does a lie become venerable from its age? |
17411 | Does antiquity consecrate darkness? |
17411 | Does it require more time to ripen a foetus, that is, to prove a destroyer, than it takes to form an Aristides? |
17411 | Does uncertainty of where a man has been, prove his non- identity when he appears again? |
17411 | Had so politic a man any interest to leave the matter doubtful? |
17411 | Had they trumpeted about the story of their own guilt and infamy, till Henry, after Perkin''s appearance, found it necessary to publish it? |
17411 | Has not this the appearance of some curiosity in the king on the subject of the princes, of whose fate he was uncertain? |
17411 | Has this the air of a forced and precipitate election? |
17411 | How came she to know accurately and authentically a tale which no mortal else knew? |
17411 | How did it import Richard in what manner the young prince was put to death? |
17411 | How many general persecutions does the church record, of which there is not the smallest trace? |
17411 | If he did how was it possible for him to know it? |
17411 | If he did not know it, what was so obvious as his detection? |
17411 | If he did not, is it morally credible that Henry would not have made those variations public? |
17411 | If she was fully assured of their deaths, could Henry, after he came to the crown and had married her daughter, be uncertain of it? |
17411 | If they were illegitimate, so was their sister; and if she was, what title had she conveyed to her son Henry the Eighth? |
17411 | If they were not destroyed in his days, in whose days were they murdered? |
17411 | If this fine story of Buckingham and Percival is not true, what becomes of Sir Thomas More''s credit, on which the whole fabric leans? |
17411 | If those views did not, as is probable, take root in his heart till long afterwards, what interest had Richard to murder an unhappy young prince? |
17411 | In short, what did Henry ever muffle and disguise but the truth? |
17411 | Indeed who were the heads of that party? |
17411 | Is it credible that Richard would have made use of this woman''s name again, if he had employed it heretofore to blacken Hastings? |
17411 | Is it credible that Richard, if the murderer, would have exhibited this unnecessary mummery, only to revive the memory of his own guilt? |
17411 | Is it not rather a base way of insinuating a slander, of which no proof could be given? |
17411 | Is it not, that Hastings really was plotting to defeat the new settlement contrary to the intention of the three estates? |
17411 | Is it possible to renew the charge, and not recollect this acquittal? |
17411 | Is it probable that the Earl of Lincoln gave out, that the elder had been murdered? |
17411 | Is it therefore probable, that he acted so silly a farce as to make his brother''s mistress do penance? |

17411 | Of what importance is it to any man living whether or not he was as bad as he is represented? |
17411 | On such occasions do arbitrary princes want tools? |
17411 | Or does it not indicate a voluntary concurrence of the nobility? |
17411 | Or, what prince ever spoke of such a scandal, and what is stronger, of such contempt of his authority, with so much lenity and temper? |
17411 | Richard had married her daughter; but what claim had Henry to her inheritance? |
17411 | Still farther: why was Perkin never confronted with the queen dowager, with Henry''s own queen, and with the princesses, her sisters? |
17411 | The mistress of Edward she notoriously was; but what if, in Richard''s pursuit of the crown, no question at all was made of this Elizabeth Lucy? |
17411 | This man, Clifford, was bribed back to Henry''s service; and what was the consequence? |
17411 | This was indeed essential to Henry to know; but what did it proclaim to the nation? |
17411 | Thus far we may credit him-- but what man of common sense can believe, that Richard went so far as publicly to asperse the honor of his own mother? |
17411 | Was Edward''s court so virtuous or so humane, that it could furnish no assassin but the first prince of the blood? |
17411 | Was he not conducted to Paul''s cross, and openly examined by the nobility? |
17411 | Was it ever pretended that Perkin failed in his part? |
17411 | Was it his interest to save Edward''s character at the expence of his own? |
17411 | Was it his matter to muffle any point that he could clear up, especially when it behoved him to have it cleared? |
17411 | Was not Lambert himself taken into Henry''s service, and kept in his court for the same purpose? |
17411 | Was not it consonant to all Henry''s policy of involving every thing in obscure and general terms? |
17411 | Was not she singularly capable of describing to Perkin, her nephew, whom she had never seen? |
17411 | Was this sufficient specification of the murder of a king? |
17411 | Were the duchess(15) and her daughters silent on so scandalous an insinuation? |
17411 | What became of it? |
17411 | What can be said against king James of Scotland, who bestowed a lady of his own blood in marriage on Perkin? |
17411 | What could stagger the allegiance of such trust and such connexions, but the firm persuation that Perkin was the true duke of York? |
17411 | What feature in this portrait gives any idea of a monster? |
17411 | What has he left a mystery? |
17411 | What interest had Henry to manage a widow of Burgundy? |
17411 | What is there in this account that looks like poison; Does it not prove that Richard would not hasten the death of his queen? |
17411 | What now becomes of Sir Thomas More''s informers, and of their narrative, which he thought hard but must be true? |
17411 | What then is the presumption? |
17411 | What truth indeed could be expected, when even the identity of person is uncertain? |
17411 | When the house of commons undertook to colour the king''s resentment, was every member of it too scrupulous to lend his hand to the deed? |
17411 | Who can believe if Richard meditated the murder, that he took no care to sift Brakenbury before he left London? |
17411 | Who can believe that he would trust so atrocious a commission to a letter? |
17411 | Who had heard of her guilt? |
17411 | Who knows that they were not applied to? |
17411 | Who was handsomer than Alexander, Augustus, or Louis the Fourteenth? |
17411 | Who were rendered uncapable to inherit but Edward the Fifth, his brother and sisters? |
17411 | Who would not vindicate Henry the Eighth or Charles the Second, if found to be falsely traduced? |
17411 | Why did he not conjecture that there was no proof of that tale? |
17411 | Why did he not convict Perkin out of his own mouth? |
17411 | Why then not Richard the Third? |
17411 | Why was it whimsical in Carte to exercise the same spirit of criticism? |
17411 | Why were they never asked, is this your son? |
17411 | Would he have loitered at York at such a crisis, if he had intended to step into the throne? |
17411 | Would not the act have specified the daughters of Edward the Fourth if the sons had been dead? |
17411 | Yet how did Richard the Third treat his nephew and competitor, the young Warwick? |
17411 | Yet what was the behaviour of the archbishop? |
17411 | and what did he try to muffle? |
17411 | and why was his whole conduct so different in the cases of Lambert and Perkin, if their cases were not totally different? |
17411 | or, if ignorant, where is his competence as an historian? |
17411 | whom shall a man trust? |
36184 | And do you mean to disobey the king as well as your father? |
36184 | Can our mother hear this and live? |
36184 | Do ye hear the children weeping, O my brothers, Ere the sorrow comes with years? 36184 He is worth loving, is he not?" |
36184 | How did he die? |
36184 | How fares it with the king and my Edward? |
36184 | Is it true,he cried,"that John, the child of my heart, the best beloved of all my sons, has forsaken me?" |
36184 | Oh, where is my dear sister? |
36184 | What is his name? |
36184 | What shall I do with it? |
36184 | Why was she not hunting in the park? |
36184 | Lord Russell asked for pen, ink, paper, and the use of any papers he had, adding,"May I have somebody to write for me?" |
36184 | Passing through the park he saw that the members of the household were hunting, but where was the Lady Jane? |
36184 | Then, when she reaches the place, she stops, stoops down, and what does she find? |
36184 | Why should not her son reign when his father, grandfather, and great- grandfather had reigned before him? |
36184 | and returning to the room he inquired tenderly,"And how are you to- day my poor child?" |
36184 | cried the mother, clasping her little golden- haired Margaret to her bosom,"Where is Renà ©, my lord? |
36184 | what, mean ye to weep, and break my heart?" |
37519 | Having surveyed the structure with great astonishment, the earl asked him"how he liked it?" |
37519 | He was a thief-- a thief? |
37519 | Twice twenty mounted Moors he overthrew, Singly on foot, some wounded, some he slew, Dispersed the rest-- what more could Sampson do? |
33755 | And the Briton himself-- what became of him? |
33755 | But how is one to describe the confused play of forces in a cyclone which has centres within centres? |
33755 | But it could not be much, he thought, as he had all the nobles, and how could there be a rising{ 262} without nobles? |
33755 | Could anything else have been expected? |
33755 | Dismayed at the swiftness of the movement, England hesitated; but how could she{ 235} deny her colony the right of self- defence? |
33755 | Had this people the right, or had they not the right to plant a State bearing a foreign flag, which should effectually bar the path to the north? |
33755 | If engines could be made to plough through the water, why might they not also be made to walk the earth? |
33755 | If such was the condition of the honest{ 153} working poor, what was that of the criminal? |
33755 | Is England richer or poorer for this outpouring of blood and treasure? |
33755 | Is it a wonder that there was always disorder and violence from a chronic tithe- war in Ireland, which it is said has cost a million of lives? |
33755 | Is it strange that Sydney Smith said no abuse as great could be found in Timbuctoo? |
33755 | Is it strange that the plantation in Massachusetts had fresh recruits? |
33755 | Is not every type of English manhood explained by such an inheritance? |
33755 | Or did the splendid heroism of Wallace, and the spirit it evoked in the people, awaken a slumbering patriotism in his own romantic soul? |
33755 | Should the English Government allow a people fiercely antagonistic to itself to build up an unfriendly State on its border? |
33755 | Then Banquo said,''How is it ye gaif to my companyeon not onlie landis and gret rentis, bot Kingdomes, and gevis me nocht?'' |
33755 | Was it not from their impious hands, that this new knowledge of the physical universe had been received? |
33755 | Was it through a complicated struggle of forces, in which ambition played the greatest part? |
33755 | Was it worth seven{ 271} years of such struggle to emancipate the land from a foreign tyranny, only to have it fall into a degrading domestic one? |
33755 | Was the man mad? |
33755 | Was there a man dismay''d? |
33755 | What are we to conclude? |
33755 | What did death matter, in form however terrible, to one who was to be so remembered nearly five centuries later by Scotland''s greatest bard? |
33755 | What sort of a race were they? |
33755 | What would be the need of a Parliament, if he did not require money? |
33755 | Whether it was premeditated, or in the heat of passion, who could say? |
33755 | Who was the Lady Cæsair, who fled with her household to Ireland from the coming deluge after being refused shelter by Noah? |
33755 | With king so false, and with justice so polluted at its fountain, what hope was there for the people but in Revolution? |
33755 | and who Nemehd, the next colonist from the East, who heads the royal procession of one hundred and eighteen kings? |
35884 | But then, he knows a lot about most things, do n''t he, sir? |
35884 | Do you know what he called the Communion? |
35884 | Do you not agree with me? |
35884 | For the latter subject I could no doubt"mug up,"as Arthur Pendennis did for his articles in the_ Pall Mall Gazette_; but_ cui bono_? |
35884 | His reply was,"But why should I hurry over what is my chief pleasure? |
35884 | How can I tell in what a state this may find you at Rome? |
35884 | I know the Roman ones are often made of spun silk, but you can have them of other stuff, too, can you not? |
35884 | I suppose she is not a Garibaldian, by the way? |
35884 | Query: If some philosophers are right in thinking that space, as well as time, is purely subjective, may not this have something to do with it? |
35884 | What other throne So meet for him who called those hearts his own? |
35884 | Will you not leave Rome and all its troubles, and pay a good long visit to Sneyd and me in a country where the Church is in a missionary character? |
35884 | Would they be likely in this state to do themselves justice in an examination held a few hours later? |
35884 | _ Whereabouts is it_? |
35884 | indeed?" |
35884 | you surely do n''t mean_ Rome_?" |
36383 | ''Do you know what a Proctor is, Sir?'' |
36383 | ''From Canada?'' |
36383 | ''I do n''t like tandems, do you?'' |
36383 | ''Wete ye not wher stondeth a litel toun, Which that ycleped is Bob up- and- doun, Under the blee in Canterbury way?'' |
36383 | ''Where is the shrine?'' |
36383 | But presently she said,''Are you going back soon?'' |
36383 | Did I want to be driven into Canterbury, indeed? |
36383 | Did we like tandems? |
36383 | Do you like tandems? |
36383 | Do you like tandems?'' |
36383 | Every now and then he would dart from our side to ask each one in turn, in a gentle whisper,''You''re an American, are you not?'' |
36383 | How better could this be done than by riding over the ground made sacred by them on our tricycle? |
36383 | If ours had no beginning, would it be a genuine pilgrimage? |
36383 | This was to have been our starting- point; but how, it suddenly occurred to us for the first time, could we start from nothing? |
36383 | Were we already in danger of forgetting the aim of our pilgrimage? |
36383 | Would we sacrifice our great end for what we had intended to be but a means to it? |
36383 | [ Illustration]''Are you the lady and gentleman that came on the tandem?'' |
36383 | and another,''How are you there, up in the second story?'' |
36383 | the priest exclaimed; and, without more ado, walked up to him and boldly addressed him thus:''Ahem!--I say now-- who are you, any way?'' |
37489 | Is it not of the Lord that the people shall labour in the very fire, and weary themselves for vanity? 37489 Fear you not some plague? 37489 Mr. Reeves''s sermon, preached 1655, are the following queries:--Can sin and the city''s safety, can impenitency and impunity stand long together? |
37489 | No, with wringing hands you may ask, where are those sweet places where we traded, feasted, slept? |
37489 | Should not my countenance be sad, when the city, the place of my father''s sepulchre, lieth waste, and the gates thereof are consumed with fire? |
37489 | The great talk at that time was, who were the burners of the city? |
37489 | where we lived like masters, and shone like morning stars? |
34965 | Who fears to speak of''98? |
34965 | After all, how has the earth been peopled, how have all the nations been formed but by migration? |
34965 | But how could a hierarch of the State Church of Ireland fail to don its spirit with his mitre? |
34965 | But how could there be a federation of two states, one of them enormously superior in power to the other? |
34965 | But nominated by whom? |
34965 | But what availed the workings of his own mind if all the time he was carrying on the policy of repression, misleading the nation thereby? |
34965 | Can Sarsfield have thought that they did? |
34965 | Could he fail to be an inveterate enemy of the law? |
34965 | Had it not been made fearfully clear that the two races and religions could not dwell together in peace? |
34965 | Had the French landed, would the potatoes have been still more hospitably shared? |
34965 | How then was the policy of Ireland to be kept from breaking away from that of Great Britain? |
34965 | How would its form be settled? |
34965 | If Ireland were detached from Great Britain, into what hands would she fall? |
34965 | Is Ireland generally capable of being turned with advantage into an arable country? |
34965 | Is it vain to hope that for the settlement of a question so vital party may for one short hour suspend its war? |
34965 | Is the shipping trade, for which the Irishman has had little opportunity of showing a turn, likely to increase? |
34965 | Is the water- power of Ireland, now that electricity has been developed, likely to do what has been done for England by coal? |
34965 | Suppose Ireland had remained the land of the Septs, would her lot certainly have been more happy? |
34965 | Suppose Ireland severed from Great Britain, what would be her lot? |
34965 | Was it anything in Irish blood or air, or was it the absence of the commercial element with its sobering influence? |
34965 | Was this loyalty or fear? |
34965 | Were remorse and regret ever breathed by Alva, Parma, or Tilly? |
34965 | What can have produced such characters? |
34965 | What did the soldiery of those Catholic commanders do when it stormed a Protestant town? |
34965 | What sort of deliberative assembly would the federal council be? |
34965 | What was now the state of things? |
34965 | What would be the political constitution of an independent Ireland? |
34965 | Will the Irish tenant be then able to discharge his liability to the State and have sufficient margin for living? |
34965 | Would Catholic emancipation pacify Ireland? |
34965 | Would a series of tribal wars among the clans themselves have been less horrible? |

28773 | Did K. send them by accident or on purpose?" |
28773 | Do you think I sought this place? |
28773 | Do you think that if I were to come to Jaffa, you could give me any work to do?" |

28773 | Had he a heart to sympathise with the sufferings of his fellow- creatures, and to help them to wage war with sin and temptation? |
28773 | How can it be otherwise? |
28773 | How would the world receive me, if they knew what I really was, and what God knows that I am at this minute? |
28773 | I say to the chief and people, How can Basutoland belong to Basutos? |
28773 | If the old lady was too large to be perfectly well all over at the same time, may it not be said that in this respect China resembled her in 1860? |
28773 | Is it credible that so_ many_ would wish it to be otherwise, and fight you about it? |
28773 | Is it my present temperament, or is it truly the case that things go untowardly more in this land than anywhere else? |
28773 | Is it not because ye speak to the flesh which is at enmity to all that is spiritual and must die( joy is only from the spirit)?... |
28773 | Is it not comfortable? |
28773 | Is it not what_ they_ would do elsewhere, if they could?" |
28773 | May I ask you, during how many years your dear heroic Brother had it with him? |
28773 | Might not the poet have added that truth embodied in a life shall be even more efficacious in obtaining an entrance? |
28773 | Need we wonder that the"dear little fellows,"as he used to call them, responded by loving him in return? |
28773 | Nor any stones that thou wilt deign to trust My hand to gather out?" |
28773 | Now comes the question, Could I sacrifice my life and remain in Kordofan and Darfour? |
28773 | Of course you can go back now, but what was the use of your coming? |
28773 | The reply was,"They may be as good, but they are not so good for me;"and when the lady asked him"Why not?" |
28773 | The time- server does not ask, What is right? |
28773 | The way he pats you on the shoulder when he says,''Look here, dear fellow, now what would you advise?'' |
28773 | Then, as if he was afraid of being misunderstood, he said,"It was a strange prayer, was it not? |
28773 | Was he a true man, or was he merely a professional hireling? |
28773 | Was there ever a man more strongly actuated by the spirit of altruism? |
28773 | What are you going to do? |
28773 | What can I do? |
28773 | What can they mean by sending a native of that country to such a place?" |
28773 | What did I come to Jaffa for? |
28773 | What is it if you know the sound truths and do not act up to them? |
28773 | What is my duty? |
28773 | What recompense has been made to those whose bleached bones mark the track of his trade over many and many a league of ground?" |
28773 | What was the life of one man compared with the thousands of women and children who were suffering through the horrors of that war? |
28773 | What will public opinion think? |
28773 | What, also, would have become of the province?" |
28773 | Where would you find more hardness to a fallen one than you would in a congregation of worshippers of the Church of this day? |
28773 | Which do Basutos think Dutch like best-- Basutos or land? |
28773 | Who can study his life without being convinced that he had a power with God, in later life, that he did not possess earlier? |
28773 | Who was to know whether or not they were taken in battle? |

28773 | Writing on the 5th January 1878, he says:--"Why does the Romish Church thrive with so many errors in it? |
28773 | Writing to his sister he said:--"You will not care overmuch for my secular history, but will say,''What did you learn on the passage?'' |
28773 | and what right have we to take this praise of men, when it is due to Him? |
28773 | but, What will pay? |
37891 | Again, if the book was ever written, what became of it? |
37891 | Was there an outbreak of some disease which obtained that name so late as 1720, or was the volume meant for a record of what had gone before? |

36681 | How can any one then say, that it is improper to ask what shall be our case, what shall we do, or what shall be done with us, If the queen should die? |
36681 | Is there any danger of popery and tyranny, by restoring the son, as they call him, of abdicated King James? |
36681 | Is there any danger that the pretender shall be brought in upon us? |
36681 | This previous question is this: Is there any real danger of the protestant succession? |

17480 | Do not all Professors strive to get earth, that they may live in plenty by other men''s labors? |
17480 | Do not all strive to enjoy the land? |
17480 | Do not professing Lawyers, as well as others, buy and sell the Conquerer''s justice that they may enjoy the earth? |
17480 | Do not the Ministers preach for maintenance in the Earth? |
17480 | Do we not see that all Laws were made in the days of the King to ease the rich Landlord? |
17480 | Do you not make the earth your very rest? |
17480 | Doth not the Soldier fight for the Earth? |
17480 | Doth not the enjoying of the earth please the spirit in you? |

17480 | Having food and raiment, lodging, and the comfortable societies of his own kind, what can a man desire more in these days of his travel? |
17480 | How then can Anti- Christians denounce the Gospel as a cause of rebellion and disobedience? |
17480 | How was it going to advantage the masses of the people? |
17480 | If you and those in power with you should be found walking in the King''s steps, can you secure yourselves or posterities from an overturn? |
17480 | If you want earth, and become poor, do you not say, God is angry with you? |
17480 | Is it ingenuous to ask liberty and not to give it? |
17480 | Is it not a flat denial of God and Scripture?" |
17480 | Is not that part of the Kingly Power? |
17480 | Knowledge, Why didst thou come, to wound and not to cure? |
17480 | O Power where art thou? |
17480 | O ye Rulers of England, when must we turn over a new leaf? |
17480 | Oh why are you so mad as to cry up a king? |
17480 | The Lawyers plead causes to get the possessions of the Earth? |
17480 | Then what will become of your power? |
17480 | WHAT IS FREEDOM? |
17480 | WHAT IS TO RULE? |
17480 | Was it ever intended that it should benefit them? |
17480 | Was not King Charles the direct successor of William the First? |
17480 | What is in you more than in others? |
17480 | What made it necessary? |
17480 | What was the aim and object of that incessant struggle out of which he had just emerged"beaten out of both estate and trade"? |
17480 | When will the Veil of Darkness be drawn off your faces? |
17480 | Whether Lords of the Manor have not lost their royalty to the common land by the recent victories? |
17480 | Whether the laws that were made in the days of the king do give freedom to any but the gentry and clergy?" |

36014 | Are such woes as these, such absolute savage degradation, the inevitable deposit of the highest Christian civilisation? |
36014 | Are the rich and godly to send missionaries and Bible- women among these masses, and save their own souls by giving the necessary funds? |
36014 | Can nothing be done, shall nothing be done, to wipe out such foul blots from the face of our fair city? |
36014 | Can we wonder? |
36014 | Could he have the face to do it_ here_?" |
36014 | Did the Master declare of these, and the legion of these,"of such is the kingdom of heaven?" |
36014 | How can our sad and sorely- tempted ones escape the snare? |

38190 | The question is, whence do they come? |
36451 | ''The same night the King said to a secret page of his,"Who shall I trust to do my bidding?" |
36451 | But what must we think of Morton and Fabyan, who are thus proved to have been guilty of such a fraud? |
36451 | But why? |
36451 | Could Morton have been at his elbow? |
36451 | Going out to Sir James, who was reposing with his brother Thomas, the King said"what Sirs are you abed so soon?" |
36451 | Had Henry sufficient motive for the crime? |
36451 | How could they have saved themselves by flight when Tewkesbury was occupied, and the abbey surrounded by Edward''s army? |
36451 | If there ever was a confession why should there be various accounts of it? |
36451 | It thus having been shown that he was a murderer when he was nineteen, what more probable than that he killed his nephews? |
36451 | Of all his prisoners,''he continues,''three only suffered death, the notorious[ why notorious?] |
36451 | Sir William Parker( or Thurleball? |
36451 | Their high rank is shown by the order that no livery is to exceed the allowance,''but only to my Lord( Lincoln?) |
36451 | Then Henry( not Richard) may well have exclaimed''Who shall I trust to do my bidding?'' |
36451 | Was there such a man lurking in the fen country round Croyland? |
36451 | Were they missing? |
36451 | What could he possibly do more? |
36451 | What did he do with them? |
36451 | Who were these children, if not the King''s nephews? |
36451 | Why should he commit this wholly useless act of perjury? |
36451 | Why then is it not''too monstrous to be believed''that the mother should have been eager to obtain the hand of her son''s murderer for her daughter? |
36451 | Why was not King Richard accused of murdering his nephews in the Act of Attainder? |
36451 | Why was not this done? |
36451 | Why was such extraordinary anxiety shown to conceal its contents, and violence threatened against anyone who preserved a record of them? |
36451 | Why were absurd, improbable,{ 280} and contradictory tales invented, in substitution of the statements made in Richard''s Act? |
36451 | Why were not Tyrrel, Dighton, Green, and Black Will arrested, tried, and hanged? |
36451 | Why were they not tried and executed for it? |

36451 | published, which alleged their illegitimacy, and its falsehood fully exposed by evidence? |

Pray, dear Uncle, have you read Sir R. Peel''s two speeches? 20023 2nd, If you know what sort of people are about poor little Queen Isabel, and if she is being_ well_ or_ ill_ brought up?... 20023 And do you know what sort of people are about poor little Queen Isabel? 20023 And what will be the effect of all this? 20023 And you would get the Nemours to come? 20023 And you would persuade the dear Queen[64] to come for a little while with Clémentine? 20023 Are there any news of Joinville''s proceedings at Rio? 20023 But tell me, dearest Uncle, if these reports are true? 20023 By the by, have you read Custine''s[82] book on Russia? 20023 Can you imagine her with_ two boys_? 20023 Can your Majesty inform Lord Melbourne what is the arrangement respecting King Leopold''s children? 20023 Could n''t you suggest this to the King and Thiers, as of yourself? 20023 Could not Sir T. Cartwright be sent there, and Sir Edward Disbrowe go to Stockholm? 20023 Could they not be got rid of in time? 20023 Did Lord Melbourne go to Lady R. Grosvenor''s party or did he go home? 20023 Did her brother appear in_ einer Allonge- Perücke_?... 20023 Did the dinner go off well at Lady Elizabeth H. Vere''s, and were there many people there? 20023 Did you know what Pozzo said to somebody here about him? 20023 Do you know Mendizabal? 20023 Even if the Chambers were to be sitting-- such a little_ Ausflug_ of ten days only could really not be a great inconvenience? 20023 First of all,_ have_ you heard of his arrival at Rio? 20023 Has Bertie not learned some more words and sentences during your absence?... 20023 Have you read his other,_ Paris und Algier_? 20023 He said,What is it?" |
20023 | How is Lord Melbourne this morning? |
20023 | How long do you stay? |
20023 | How long does Aunt Julia stay with you? |
20023 | Hélène is sole guardian, is she not?... |
20023 | I asked Lord M.,''Must they resign directly, the next day, after the division( if they intended resigning)?'' |
20023 | I hope you approve?'' |
20023 | I hope, dear Uncle, you received my last letter( quite a packet) for Albert, on the 5th or 6th? |
20023 | I own I was not a little surprised to find that you are probably the godmother; or is the little boy only to be named after you? |
20023 | I replied,"Who told you this?" |
20023 | I should like to know what harm the Coburg family has done to England? |
20023 | I should wish to stay with you, and what would poor Ernest[9] say if I were to leave him so long? |
20023 | I suppose I_ may_ send for Aunt Charlotte''s bust, for which I am most grateful-- and say I have your authority to do so? |
20023 | I think that_ great_ violence and striving such a pity, on both sides, do n''t you, dear Uncle? |
20023 | If therefore, dearest Uncle, it suits you and Aunt Louise, would you come about the end of August, and stay with me as long as you can? |
20023 | Indeed, how is business to go on at all if such vexatious opposition prevails? |
20023 | Is it by instigation from him personally, or does he only know of it without being a party to it? |
20023 | Is it possible?--can it be true? |
20023 | Is it very warm in Italy? |
20023 | Is not this perfection? |
20023 | Is the Mayor to accompany the Prince in the same carriage? |
20023 | Is this not touching? |
20023 | Leopold must be great fun with his Aunt Marie;[33] does he still say"_ pas beau frère!_"or is he more reconciled to his brother? |
20023 | Lord Melbourne said,"You are for standing out, then?" |
20023 | Lord Melbourne said:"There you had the better of him, and what did he say?" |
20023 | May I ask you to give my affectionate respects to the King of Prussia, and my love to your Mamma? |
20023 | Melbourne has asked me to enquire of you whether you know Lord Grosvenor? |
20023 | Now if dearest Louise would meet us there then, and perhaps come back with us here for a little while_ then_? |

20023 | Peel?] |
20023 | Pray has the Duchess of Braganza[10] written to you or Aunt Louise since Ferdinand''s marriage? |
20023 | Pray, dear Uncle, does he know such a thing as that he has got an Aunt and Cousin on the other side of the water? |
20023 | Pray, dear Uncle, is the report of the King of Naples''marriage to the Archduchess Theresa true? |
20023 | Pray, dear Uncle, may I ask you a silly question?--is not the Queen of Spain[8] rather clever? |
20023 | Pray, dearest Uncle, will not and ought not Paris to be Duke of Orleans now? |
20023 | Secondly, if the Donna Francesca pleases, is he empowered_ at once to make the demand_, or must he write home first? |
20023 | Shall Surrey invite her, or Lord Palmerston? |
20023 | Should not the Lord Lieutenant( Lord Warwick) have notice? |
20023 | Suppose, however, he could_ not_ be, and the Nemours could not come_ then_, would the King not kindly allow them to come later? |
20023 | Tatane[101] is not your favourite, is he? |
20023 | The Queen is ashamed to say it, but she has forgotten_ when_ she appointed the Judge Advocate; when will the Cabinet be over? |
20023 | The Queen wishes to know if she ought to say anything to the Duchess, of the noble manner in which her Government mean to stand by her? |
20023 | The following were the questions and the answers:--_ Q._ What were the toasts at the theatrical dinner last night? |
20023 | The law may be perfect, but how is it that whenever a case for its application arises, it proves to be of no avail? |
20023 | The second is the contemplation-- what state will the Queen be placed in by such a catastrophe? |
20023 | The_ dénouement_ of the Oriental affair is most fortunate, is it not? |
20023 | They are: 1st, What you think of the Queen Christina of Spain, what opinion_ you_ have of her, as one can not believe_ reports_? |
20023 | They say,"They did so to us; why should we not do so to them?" |
20023 | Was it yourself, or came it from your Mother? |
20023 | Was not his father drowned at Spithead or Portsmouth? |
20023 | We are then to expect your arrival either on the Tuesday or Wednesday? |
20023 | What do you say to poor Christina''s departure? |
20023 | What is the value of Cardinal Wolsey''s cap, for instance? |
20023 | What is this but admitting that they looked to a movement in the country which they have not been able to create? |
20023 | When did he get home? |
20023 | Where then is"_ La France outragée_"? |
20023 | Who has made the little copy which you sent me, and who the original? |
20023 | Who is their singing- master? |
20023 | Who made the letter? |
20023 | Who will replace Mr Bulwer at Paris? |
20023 | Why should not Princess Alexandrine of Bavaria do? |
20023 | Will your Royal Highness have the goodness to mention this to Her Majesty?... |
20023 | You know her, and what do you think of her? |
20023 | You will kindly let our good old Grandmother[63] come there to see her dear Albert_ once again_ before she dies, would n''t you? |
20023 | Your speech interested me very much; it is very fine indeed; you wrote it yourself, did you not? |
20023 | [ 18] Might I ask what is the very pretty seal with which the letter I got from you yesterday was closed? |
20023 | [ Pageheading: PEEL AND PRINCE ALBERT]_ Sir Robert Peel to the Prince Albert._ WHITEHALL,_ 15th February(?) |
20023 | _ Qu''en dites- vous_, is not this flattering?... |
20023 | _ Qu''en pensez- vous?_ Then for_ Tatane_[66]--a Princess of Saxony would be extremely_ passlich_. |
20023 | _ Queen Victoria to Viscount Melbourne._ Does Lord Melbourne_ really_ mean J. Russell''s_ marriage_? |
20023 | and from Thursday to Friday? |
20023 | and then she added,"Come again-- will you, before you leave this country again?" |
20023 | and to whom? |
20023 | wherefore arm when there is_ no_ enemy? |
20023 | wherefore raise the war- cry? |
37817 | In another instance, none but those who have heard the man, would for a moment believe that his cry of"Do you want a brick or brick dust?" |
37817 | The King asked him''why he inserted that?'' |
37817 | This idea was scouted by one of their wiseheads, who asked who was to tye the bell round the cat''s neck? |
37817 | could have been possibly mistaken for"Do you want a lick on the head?" |
37817 | what lacke you, countriman? |
35532 | On perceiving my doctor silent, instead of offering with his usual kindness to post the letter, I enquired wherefore? 35532 Who is he that saith and it cometh to pass when THE_ Lord_ commandeth it not?" |
35532 | _ Friday, September 26^th, 1846._ O my God, Wherefore hast Thou thought proper to let Satan try and distress me in this unanticipated manner? 35532 And why thus hesitatingly? 35532 But I hope to be able to go to see[_ sic_] on Saturday at three o''clock if you should not at that time have left town for the Seaside? 35532 I beg you to let me know what sum it is you wish, at what time or times to be paid? 35532 I then asked,''Is he engaged?'' 35532 I then inquired,''Who delivers parcels into His Grace''s hands?'' 35532 I think that I answered in a former letter all the queries which you had stated in yours? 35532 If I am mistaken with regard to this being a_ general habit_, I am_ justified_ in asking-- Why such an unwarrantable liberty was taken with me? 35532 If Payable at a Banker usually employed by you, will you be so kind as to let me know his Name? 35532 On her return to Buckingham House, Normanby, who had been at the chapel, said to her,Did not your Majesty find it very hot?" |
35532 | The first is; Why I am to receive a change of style in the appearance of your letters with regard to the Seal thereof? |
35532 | This made me still more anxious, eagerly asking, if he were ill? |
35532 | WHO is he that saith_ and it cometh to pass_, when THE LORD_ commandeth it_ NOT? |
35532 | What can I say to such things but this,--''Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?'' |
35532 | What would be said, if I, a man of seventy years of age, nearly, were to take in marriage a lady young enough to be my Granddaughter?" |
35532 | Whether an order at a Banker would suit you? |
35532 | Why do n''t you then let me know His Name? |
35532 | Why do you not send each of them to me when you write it? |
35532 | _ thus_ upheld who can despair? |
35532 | and the next,_ called forth thereby_;_ Why_ you_ ever_ ceased to sign your_ Name_ at the conclusion of your letters? |
35532 | and,''Has HE not a right to do what HE will with His own?'' |
35532 | in what way I should like you to acquiesce with my wishes? |
35532 | or the son of man that Thou visitest him?''" |
35532 | or through what Bank? |
21500 | By whom sweet boy wert thou begot? |
21500 | Is it so? |
21500 | She desired to know of me what colour of hair was reputed best, and whether my queen''s hair or hers was best, and which of them two was fairest? 21500 Tell me who was thy nurse?" |
21500 | What cradle wert thou rocked in? |
21500 | What had''st thou then to drink? |
21500 | What was thy meat and daily food? |
21500 | When, sir Walter,she had once exclaimed,"will you cease to be a beggar?" |
21500 | Where wert thou born Desire? |
21500 | ''What, did the fool bring you too? |
21500 | ''You rogues,''said my lord,''may not I and my neighbour change a blow but you must interpose?'' |
21500 | A fallow field,"At quando messis"( When will be the harvest)? |
21500 | A message was sent by the privy- council to inquire of the corporation of London what the city would be willing to undertake for the public service? |
21500 | A ship sinking and the rainbow appearing,"Quid tu si pereo"( To what avail if I perish)? |
21500 | After such a speech, it might naturally be inquired, which college did she endow? |
21500 | And again;"Do you put tricks upon''s with savages and men of Inde?" |
21500 | And is her mercy come to an end for evermore?" |
21500 | As soon as the service was ended, she went into the vestry and inquired of the dean who had brought that book? |
21500 | But he that is best stored, must still say_ da nobis hodie_; and he that hath showed most thankfulness, must ask again,_ Quid retribuamus_? |
21500 | But she was earnest with me to declare which of them I judged fairest? |
21500 | But what did I encounter thereon? |
21500 | But why do I thus coldly plain As if it were my cause alone? |
21500 | Dear Mall, how shall I speak what I have seen or what I have felt? |
21500 | Have I given cause, ask you, and take scandal when I have done? |
21500 | He answered at first jestingly, but, on recollection, asked her with great earnestness, whether she did not intend that the matter should go forward? |
21500 | Her majesty inquired who she was? |
21500 | How can you do more cruel spite Than proffer wrong and promise right? |
21500 | Is an earthly power or authority infinite? |
21500 | Is it impiety not to do it? |
21500 | Nay more, when the vilest of all indignities are done unto me, doth religion enforce me to sue? |
21500 | No sooner was the decline of his favor perceived, and what so quickly perceived at courts? |
21500 | Of whom I will say, as the prophet David speaketh of God,"Hath queen Elizabeth forgotten to be gracious? |
21500 | On seeing a number of warders and other attendants drawn out in order, she asked,"What meaneth this?" |
21500 | Or shall the army stand when all the volunteers leave it? |
21500 | Or will any voluntaries stay when those that have will and cause to follow are thus handled? |
21500 | Or will no kind of punishment be fit for him, but that which punisheth, not him, but me, this army, and this poor country of Ireland? |
21500 | Quoth the Judge;''What need such eloquent terms in this place?'' |
21500 | Rich then demanded, why he refused to acknowledge a head of the church so appointed? |
21500 | Shall I keep the country when the army breaks? |
21500 | Shall ambassage be sent to foreign princes laden with instructions of your rash- advised charge?... |
21500 | She asked how I came there? |
21500 | She asked if she played well? |
21500 | She asked me, which of them became her best? |
21500 | She asked,"what needed such haste?" |
21500 | She enquired whether my queen or she played best? |
21500 | She enquired, which of them was of highest stature? |
21500 | The courtiers quickly penetrated the secret of her heart;--for what vice, what weakness, can long lurk unsuspected in a royal bosom? |
21500 | The full moon in heaven,"Quid sine te coelum"( What is heaven without thee)? |
21500 | The gentleman replied,''Doth your lordship mislike the term(_ violent_)? |
21500 | The queen had soon found him out, and with a kind of an affected frown asked the lady carver who he was? |
21500 | The sun reflecting his rays from the bearer,"Quousque avertes"( How long wilt thou avert thy face)? |
21500 | Then came Thomas Cobham, whom sir Thomas Poins took in, and said;''Alas, master Cobham, what wind headed you to work such treason?'' |
21500 | Then she asked, what exercises she used? |
21500 | Then she spake to me in Dutch, which was not good; and would know what kind of books I most delighted in, whether theology, history, or love matters? |
21500 | Then she turned, asking at me how I liked him? |
21500 | Then,"to enforce the matter,"they brought forth sir James Croft, and Gardiner demanded what she had to say to that man? |
21500 | This delay of ripe time for marriage, besides the loss of the realm( for without posterity of her highness what hope is left unto us?) |
21500 | What did I advantage? |
21500 | What should she do? |
21500 | What therefore remaineth for me? |
21500 | What, can not princes err? |
21500 | When he came into the queen''s presence, she fell into a kind of reviling, demanding how he durst go over without her leave? |
21500 | Which being over, she enquired of me whether she or my queen danced best? |
21500 | Why should the earl of Essex interfere with an order of things so natural? |
21500 | With such fancies and favorites what is to be hoped for? |
21500 | [ 77]"Was the queen here making the apology of her own compliances under the reign of her sister, or was she generously furnishing a salvo for others? |
21500 | can not subjects receive wrong? |
21500 | or doth God require it? |
21500 | or that he will contain himself within the limits of your conditions?" |
21500 | that he doth so for sorrow or for gladness?'' |
21500 | that in the defence of obstinate refusal there never groweth victory but by compassion, they are come:--what need I say more? |
21500 | what hast thou and thy company wrought?'' |
17618 | ''How are monsieur''s pigs? 17618 And who posted them, did you do so yourself?" |
17618 | Did you ever do any smuggling? |
17618 | Did you not say that the pretty damsel of Herm had a father? |
17618 | Do you mind my leaving you a few minutes,said he,"while I fire the big gun for assistance?" |
17618 | Ellen, do you remember posting a letter to me, about a month ago, that Miss Grant gave you? |
17618 | Had we not better take up the flooring and see if we have come simply upon a grave or what else is beneath us? |
17618 | How do you feel? |
17618 | How much is a metre? |
17618 | Is that all, Harry? |
17618 | Is the case indeed so hopeless? |
17618 | Let''s see, which one shall I give you? 17618 Poor dog, are you hungry then?" |
17618 | Puit? |
17618 | Then what,I asked myself,"is the meaning of the letters at certain angles round the square both inside and out?" |
17618 | Well, Nilford, what is your decision? 17618 Well,"said he,"that''s rather personal, is it not? |
17618 | What are they? 17618 What did his cat do?" |
17618 | What do you say to a glass of ale at the tavern you put up at in Braye for those eleven days, eh, Alec? |
17618 | What is to be done? |
17618 | What is window, Alec? |
17618 | What say you to a sail this evening, Crusoe? |
17618 | What, dig down ten feet, and be buried alive in this crumbling grave? 17618 Where to, noble Crusoe?" |
17618 | Who would be stifled up in a town with wealth and its attending cares, in preference to this life of liberty I was leading? |
17618 | ''Why not give them one of those which are languishing so for want of water?'' |
17618 | ( Why do we never hear anything of the father o''pearl?) |
17618 | Are they well? |
17618 | Are they yours?" |
17618 | Are they_ really_ real? |
17618 | Are_ all_ the bags full?" |
17618 | At length he laid the paper down, and informed me that he could read it well enough, but what did it all refer to? |
17618 | Beside which, had not M. Ducas gone straight away and given notice to the proper authorities? |
17618 | But I broke in,"Where was the water?" |
17618 | But as Hugo created his hero, why should he not be allowed to destroy him as he likes? |
17618 | But how could_ she_ know of my danger? |
17618 | But tell me what has happened? |
17618 | But then I suppose when you see them by the_ ton_, day after day, you take no notice of them?" |
17618 | But what does Priscilla say to his protestations of love; surely she does not give him countenance?" |
17618 | But what of the dog''s warning? |
17618 | But where are we? |
17618 | Could I find a means of climbing up the perpendicular sides of my prison, if only a few feet? |
17618 | Could not Alec decipher that for me? |
17618 | Did I do wrong?" |
17618 | Did I ever do any smuggling? |
17618 | Do n''t you think it''s all moonshine, or rather( wiping the perspiration from his brow) sunshine and shadow?" |
17618 | Do you give them much green food?'' |
17618 | Do you want to throw your life away in such madness? |
17618 | Does darkness affect the nerves of a blind man as it does that of one with his full visual powers? |
17618 | Had we seen them or what were they? |
17618 | Have they thought of the Channel Islands? |
17618 | How should I form the bows? |
17618 | How should I get home was the next question? |
17618 | How was I going to secure my victim before giving the_ coup de grace_? |
17618 | However did you get home?" |
17618 | I believe she is as true a girl as ever lived; but why did you not answer her letters? |
17618 | I quietly took it from my trunk, and handed it to him carelessly, with the remark,"Can you read that for me, Alec?" |
17618 | I suppose we shall not know a turnip from an apple next?" |
17618 | I was fain to confess that it did seem like it, but asked,"Will you help me dig to a depth of ten feet from the surface? |
17618 | I would keep my secret; but what of the paper I had discovered in the niche in the wall? |
17618 | If cod liver oil is good for consumptives, why not porpoise cutlets? |
17618 | Is_ she_ well, and is she still_ mine_? |
17618 | Its head appears never to be still, but constantly bobbing and turning from side to side, as if saying,"Did you ever catch a cormorant asleep?" |
17618 | Might I not die any one of a hundred deaths without the fact being known for weeks, perhaps months? |
17618 | Monday looked about and quickly said,"La porte, the door, porche, the porch; how will they do?" |
17618 | My father noticed my agitation as I asked,"Father, is anything amiss with her? |
17618 | My friends would never hear of me again, and my animals on the island would starve till-- yes, why not try? |
17618 | My good old dad stood by, looking very grave, and gave a very emphatic shake of his head, so I said:"What do you think of it all?" |
17618 | My life was saved, but by what? |
17618 | Next, where was it most likely a man would hide anything of value, beneath the sea or upon dry land? |
17618 | Now do you not remember any little adventure of your own you could tell me?" |
17618 | Now what are we standing near that commences in French with the letter P?" |
17618 | Now, friend Alec, and what would you like to take away with you?" |
17618 | On this particular night my mind was filled with the question,"How can I keep my fish pond always replenished with sea water?" |
17618 | Or do the gentle tradesmen, to discourage smuggling, manufacture their own_ Havannas_? |
17618 | Oysters lie in deep waters where they are inaccessible to these birds, so whence is their name derived? |
17618 | Shall I ever forget them? |
17618 | Should I tell Alec? |
17618 | Should I tell him of that? |
17618 | Should he not be offered up on a stool? |
17618 | Suppose someone put in at night and cut my throat for the sake of plunder? |
17618 | Surely nothing was wrong with her; was she ill? |
17618 | The turning point of the case was, did we pick up separate logs of timber and construct the raft, or did we find the raft_ already made_? |
17618 | Then my dear old mother, what of her? |
17618 | Then said I,"What is the French for walnut tree?" |
17618 | Then said Monday,"What say you now of your quest, Crusoe? |
17618 | Then why does darkness bring a certain awe to ordinary mortals? |
17618 | These remarks aroused my curiosity, so I asked,"Were you ever caught at the game?" |
17618 | To which I replied by asking him a question,"Whatever is the matter, Alec, am I hurt?" |
17618 | Was it a spirit voice or some night bird that in my abstraction I fancied pronounced my name? |
17618 | Was mother ailing? |
17618 | Was my father dead? |
17618 | We now appeared to have cleared the place, but what of the"petite fà © es"? |
17618 | Well, say the skull represented the treasure spot, what did the square surrounding it mean? |
17618 | What a rumpus he would have caused? |
17618 | What did the skull portend, and what did the letters and figures refer to? |
17618 | What did this idiotic idea of mine amount to after all? |
17618 | What do you say to a drag with the trawl?" |
17618 | What do you say, would you rather go or stay?" |
17618 | What do you say?" |
17618 | What had I to turn into a plough? |
17618 | What if I met with an accident? |
17618 | What if I were taken ill? |
17618 | What is the interpretation of this? |
17618 | What more_ could_ I do? |
17618 | What of Priscilla? |
17618 | What security could I give him for further food? |
17618 | What shall we do next?" |
17618 | What was to be done? |
17618 | Whence comes the spell of dread that night brings beneath its black wing? |
17618 | Whenever I looked round his dear old brown eyes were upon me, as if he would say,"How are you getting on, master?" |
17618 | Where did you write them?" |
17618 | Where was I? |
17618 | Where was the pleasure? |
17618 | Where_ did_ you get them from? |
17618 | Who would help me? |
17618 | Who would know of my position? |
17618 | Why are we so much more in fear of unseen things at night than during the day? |
17618 | Why could I not throw my doubled silk sash over it, and haul myself up? |
17618 | Why do you look so grave? |
17618 | Why not lengthen and strengthen her at once? |
17618 | Why not make a plough? |
17618 | Why not utilize these? |
17618 | Why not? |
17618 | Why not? |
17618 | Why there are several ways that I can think of,"said Alec, after a pause;"but first and foremost, why not go home in the''Anglo- Franc?''" |
17618 | Why, Alec will bear me out that they have been indigenous to the island for scores of years, wo n''t you, Alec?" |
17618 | Will you kindly accompany us over your premises?'' |
17618 | Would it be among the rocks or where the ground was softer? |
17618 | Would it not be better to be home in dear old Barton with my skiff and pretty Priscilla? |
17618 | Would they join us at table? |
17618 | Would you like them to come over and take charge? |
17618 | Yes he was, and by the bye, why should I not try something? |
17618 | Yes? |
17618 | _ Have you a spade?_''"It was all up. |
17618 | _ What of the dead man lying on the beach?_ I shuddered at the mere idea of going near the poor fellow. |
17618 | and a dozen other questions were put to me in as many seconds, but I only laughed and said:"Now do you believe me?" |
17618 | those two days, would they never pass? |
17618 | what letters do you refer to?" |
17618 | what shall we do now?" |
17618 | what''s this, Ducas? |
17618 | where are you? |
17618 | whistled Alec;"where''s the salt box? |
36993 | Always doing or undoing something 37 Habitual fitfulness 38 Self- importance 40 Henry and Wolsey: Which led? |
36993 | But what were the steps, and what especially was Elizabeth''s step? |
36993 | Can he enlarge this chamber or contract that? |
36993 | Can he, later, close a door here or open a window there? |
36993 | Choice spirits are more numerous-- but are the spirits quite as choice? |
36993 | Do we not indeed know too well the fate of those whose thought and will ran counter to his? |
36993 | For, indeed, what is the use of being active, capable, confident and important in a closet? |
36993 | If a brother is attached to his brother and does not quarrel with him, is he therefore poor- spirited? |
36993 | If a parliament and a king see eye to eye, is it just to label the parliament throughout history as an abject parliament? |
36993 | If by rare chance a servant sees, possibly on good grounds, a hero in his master, is he therefore a poltroon? |
36993 | It might be asked, in passing, seeing that six wives is the sign of a perfect"monster"if three wives make a semi- monster? |
36993 | Should we have loved, trusted, and reverenced a''monster of lust''? |
36993 | What then might he have been had he been a statesman only, or a diplomatist or an ecclesiastic or a soldier only? |
36993 | What was its meaning? |
36993 | Why may we not combine all thankfulness for the early More and the early Savonarola, and all compassion for the later More and later Savonarola? |
36993 | Yet how many of us are there who, if admitting to the full their greatness, do not belittle their follies? |
36993 | or, if freely admitting their follies, do not belittle their greatness? |
36993 | what its object? |
37625 | And is it possible, after all, that there may be a flaw in the title- deeds? |
37625 | As for the remainder,--the hundred pale abortions to be counted against one rosy- cheeked boy,--what shall we say or do? |
37625 | For, if they are to have no immortality, what superior claim can I assert for mine? |
37625 | I remembered Dean Swift''s retort to Sergeant Bettesworth on a similar announcement,--"Of what regiment, pray, sir?" |
37625 | Or, let me speak it more boldly, what other long- enduring fame can exist? |
37625 | What other fame is worth aspiring for? |
37625 | Would fire burn it, I wonder? |
37625 | [ 11] Shall I attempt a picture of this exhalation of modern ingenuity, or what else shall I try to paint? |
37625 | but,"Why is he here?" |
14412 | Am I to cry peace, peace, where there is no peace? 14412 And where did they all live-- I see no houses where they could have lived?" |
14412 | Are you,he concluded,"desirous of putting an end to these murders? |
14412 | But there would be employment for them in reclaiming the waste? |
14412 | Can you form any judgment what proportion of the population, which is thus added at present, bears to the ordinary population of the City of Cork? |
14412 | Do you see all that country, sir? |
14412 | Had not,he asked,"the policy of the State always been to become a great money lender? |
14412 | How does it,he is further asked,"prevent them from going upon the land?" |
14412 | Is not,said O''Connell,"the state of things I have described a blot upon Christianity? |
14412 | Is the land with you termed waste, capable of being made productive? |
14412 | Is there sufficient employment for the people in the cultivation of the arable land? |
14412 | Were there more people in Bridgetown and Skibbereen at that time than now? |
14412 | What did the wealthy non- resident landlords give? |
14412 | What did the wealthy resident landlords give_? |
14412 | What other relief was given during the Government works by private charity, committees, etc.? |
14412 | Whence can this proceed? |
14412 | With every disposition,writes W.G.,"to make allowances for the difficulties of their position, let me ask, Sir, how have the gentry acted? |
14412 | [ 286]_ Question_ 1819:How do you propose that the priests should be paid?" |
14412 | ''What mutton and blanket?'' |
14412 | Abhor the sword and stigmatize the sword? |
14412 | Abhor the sword and stigmatize the sword? |
14412 | Abhor the sword and stigmatize the sword? |
14412 | Again, if small holdings were the bane of Ireland, was the midst of an unparalleled famine the proper time to remove the bane? |
14412 | An inspector asks this question:"Is a man who owns a horse, or a cow, or such things, destitute?" |
14412 | And what is the picture, he asks? |
14412 | And what, I further asked, were the feelings of the landlords with regard to their tenants dying of starvation? |
14412 | And when you have brought over your corn, who who will be the buyers? |
14412 | And why should they not? |
14412 | Besides,"under the operation of the Act"is itself a doubtful phrase: How long were they under it? |
14412 | But this old Obelisk itself, what is it?--What brought it here? |
14412 | But what did I find in the islands? |
14412 | But why all this concern of the poor? |
14412 | But, Sir, seven years have elapsed, and what has been the result? |
14412 | Can the Government, then, vote public money for the sustenance of the people and maintain existing restrictions on the free importation of grain? |
14412 | Did he intend to turn from pleasantries to solemn warning, or fierce denunciation? |
14412 | Did not the guardians of the poor in this country make purchases upon the spot? |
14412 | Did the Act, to the full extent, supply the place of the public works, where it had come into operation? |
14412 | Did the landlords, I enquired, come forward liberally to save the lives of the people? |
14412 | England unanimously repudiates the first theory; but is the other much less disgraceful to us? |
14412 | Even if it were desirable to continue employing the people upon those public works, where were they to be always found? |
14412 | Had the English proprietors, he would ask, who had large estates in Ireland, done their duty? |
14412 | Had they more power over the public than the members of their own House? |
14412 | Has not the Irish Celt, he asks, achieved distinguished success in every country of Europe but his own? |
14412 | He asks,"is the Corn Law in all its provisions adapted to this unforeseen and very special case?" |
14412 | He said''That is quite true, but do you remember having received monthly remittances during the severe pressure of the Famine in Skibbereen?'' |
14412 | How can a man dying of starvation have patience? |
14412 | How far was their machinery complete and efficient? |
14412 | How had it acted when the duty was confided to it of finding employment? |
14412 | How is it replaced? |
14412 | How often have I heard all the boast of the superior tranquillity of the North? |
14412 | How was this vast scheme to be carried to a successful issue? |
14412 | If, he asks, the Corn Laws are suspended, is it to be done by an act of prerogative, or by legislation at the instance of the Government? |
14412 | In such districts, where are hills and roads to be found upon which the people may, this year, be employed? |
14412 | In view of the amount of the loan sought for, and the mileage of the railways to be constructed, how many men, said Lord George, can we employ? |
14412 | Is it, he asks, to be spent on productive or unproductive labour? |
14412 | Is not the quarter of an acre clause test for relief your creation? |
14412 | Is not the_ ex- officio_ clause in the Poor- law Bill your bantling, or that of your leader, Lord Stanley? |
14412 | Is that your belief? |
14412 | It was not O''Connell''s habit to write his speeches; where then could the means of publishing this one come from, except from the reporters? |
14412 | It would give far less trouble to the Government than the system which it is proposed to substitute for it; but what would the end of it be? |
14412 | May we not well ask, Why were not the permanent measures, now proposed, thought of long before, and passed into laws? |
14412 | Mr. Hall, on putting his head inside the hole which answered for a door, said:"Well, Phillis, how is your mother to- day?" |
14412 | Mr. Wakley addressing himself to that observation, said"he would ask, was not England open to the same or similar effects? |
14412 | Now, he wanted to know in what the remainder was spent? |
14412 | Now, how have we seen in the first part of this work, that He has repeatedly punished? |
14412 | Now, suppose it is admitted that small holdings were the bane of Ireland, who, we may be permitted to ask, created them? |
14412 | O''Brien?" |
14412 | Of what use was money, if food were not procurable with it? |
14412 | Ought not such a bane be the subject of legislation, when society was in its normal state? |
14412 | Phillis answered,"O Sir, is it you? |
14412 | President Folk''s message to Congress-- America burthened with surplus corn-- could supply the world-- Was it a money question or a food question? |
14412 | Shall we advise the suspension of that law for a limited period? |
14412 | Shall we resolve to maintain the existing Corn Law? |
14412 | Shall we undertake without suspension to modify the existing Corn Law? |
14412 | She would not awake them, but she must know the truth-- are they alive or dead? |
14412 | Should I be authorized in issuing a proclamation prohibiting distillation from grain? |
14412 | Statesmen appear to have understood them well enough: why then did it require a famine to have them brought officially before Parliament? |
14412 | The House, he said, could send the public to Committees, why not a member? |
14412 | The Irish nation-- the sister kingdom, your fellow- subjects, living at your very threshold-- as near to you as York or Devon? |
14412 | The day''s proceedings might be fairly supposed to have ended here-- but no-- what about the prisoners? |
14412 | The following is an extract from his letter:--"In sober earnestness, gentlemen, why send your circular to a Catholic bishop? |
14412 | The question raised at that private conference was, what was the state of each man''s constituency? |
14412 | The simple question:"Was it better to employ the labour of the country on productive rather than on non- productive works during the Famine?" |
14412 | Then where was the generosity? |
14412 | Then why( the noble Lord continued, with much vehemence) do n''t he give us the information, if he do n''t shrink from it? |
14412 | Was ever such an ascent open to him before? |
14412 | Was he about to make an adversary ridiculous by an anecdote or a witticism? |
14412 | Was it a money question or a food question? |
14412 | Was the townsland boundary system, which he had just condemned, half so demoralizing to the labourer as this? |
14412 | Was this, he asked, to be considered as a local calamity, or was it to be considered as a national calamity? |
14412 | What became of the remainder of the money? |
14412 | What do we see with regard to Indian meal? |
14412 | What else, he asks, can they be? |
14412 | What good could we expect from such a Nazareth? |
14412 | What grave mysterious reasons of State, then, have prevented the Irish wastes from being reclaimed? |
14412 | What landowner could afford the double outlay of paying unlimited taxation, and at the same time of making improvements on his property? |
14412 | What position did we then occupy as a class of people of the United Kingdom? |
14412 | What was to be done? |
14412 | What will Lord John Russell say to this? |
14412 | What, then, must their lives have been during the Famine? |
14412 | When may we expect to resume the works?" |
14412 | Where was the real, the culpable, the unpardonable apathy? |
14412 | Where were Lord John''s wonderful free trade principles then? |
14412 | Where were the retailers then, who were to have sprung into existence under the political economy wand of Lord John Russell and Mr. Labouchere? |
14412 | Where were the virtuous and conscientious men in whom the constituencies of Ireland had reposed confidence? |
14412 | Whether the refusal to serve on the Committee in question can be construed into a contempt of the authority of the house? |
14412 | Whether there is any and what prescriptive power or privilege in said House to imprison its members for such contempt? |
14412 | Whether there is any, and what inherent power or privilege in the House of Commons to imprison its members for constructive contempt of its authority? |
14412 | Whether, assuming the commitment or detainer to have been unlawful, Mr. Smith O''Brien has any and what legal remedy, and against whom? |
14412 | Who but Mr. D''Israeli can perceive any abnegation of O''Connell''s principles in these sentiments? |
14412 | Who could have put such nonsense into your head?'' |
14412 | Who was the retiring but generous donor? |
14412 | Why did not the Government buy it, instead of sending to America and Malta for Indian corn and bad wheat? |
14412 | Why did they not attend in numbers sufficient to prevent Mr. Poulett Scrope''s laudable effort on behalf of Ireland from being burked? |
14412 | Why did they not keep the Irish corn crop for May and June, or use it for immediate need and import Indian meal for May and June? |
14412 | Why have the bare- faced impudence to ask me to consent to the expatriation of millions of my co- religionists and fellow- countrymen? |
14412 | Will you yourself describe what you have seen and known?" |
14412 | Would their cultivation give remunerative interest on the capital expended? |
14412 | [ 134]"Under such circumstances,"he asks,"how can the country be exposed to danger or suffering from an infliction such as now threatens? |
14412 | [ 253] But the question might still remain,--could those four and a- half millions of acres he profitably cultivated? |
14412 | _ Is this to be regarded in the light of a Divine dispensation and punishment? |
14412 | _ Level roads are a good thing, but food is better._ And what will level highways do for the poor of Ireland next year, if they have nothing to eat? |

37993 | Or shall we not rather say that they seem so because-- like youth, like life itself-- they are delightful? |
37993 | The question is, who made it and for what purpose was it used? |
37993 | What will be the effect? |
37993 | What, for instance, can be better, just at the clearing of a shower, than the look- out from the Pillar Fell on the opposite side of the valley? |
37993 | has anyone climbed it, and what did he think of it? |
34807 | Do I not ken the smell of pouther, think ye? 34807 ( 1) Who should have had the government of her? 34807 ( 2) Who was nominated to be the fittest to have married her? 34807 A pound, or half a pound? |
34807 | Again it asks:"What should have become of the Prince?" |
34807 | But how could this be under such conditions? |
34807 | Cecil, and Suffolk, and all of them, were at fault, like sae mony mongrel tikes, when I puzzled it out; and trow ye that I can not smell pouther? |
34807 | Coke on the trial of the Conspirators._ WHAT WAS THE GUNPOWDER PLOT? |

12544 | No, I long to be rid of you, am afraid you will not go soon enough: do not you believe this? |

12544 | SIR,--Why are you so sullen, and why am I the cause? |

12544 | Shall we go thither? |

12544 | Sure you took somebody else for my cousin Peters? |
12544 | Tell me what I must think on''t; whether it be better or worse, or whether you are at all concern''d in''t? |
12544 | Tell me, my dearest, am I? |

12544 | To the joy or sorrow of the neighbourhood,--who knows now? |
12544 | Was Dorothy in London to purchase her_ trousseau_? |
12544 | Was this the spark that loneliness and absence fanned into flame? |
12544 | Well, who can help these things? |
12544 | Were you at Althorp when you saw my Lady Sunderland and Mr. Smith, or are they in town? |
12544 | What a dismal story this is you sent me; but who could expect better from a love begun upon such grounds? |
12544 | What can excuse me if I should entertain any person that is known to pretend to me, when I can have no hope of ever marrying him? |
12544 | What do you mean to be so melancholy? |
12544 | What do you mean to do with all my letters? |
12544 | What does my Lord Lisle? |

12544 | Where were my eyes that I did not see him, for I believe I should have guessed at least that''twas he if I had? |
12544 | Who knows what a year may produce? |
12544 | Who told you I go to bed late? |
12544 | Who was that, Mr. Dr. told you I should marry? |
12544 | Why did you get such a cold? |
12544 | Why did you not send me that news and a garland? |
12544 | Why do I enter into this wrangling discourse? |
12544 | Why do you dissemble so abominably; you can not think these things? |
12544 | Why do you say I failed you? |
12544 | Why should not you be as just to me? |
12544 | Why should you be less kind? |
12544 | Why should you give yourself over so unreasonably to it? |
12544 | Why should you make an impossibility where there is none? |
12544 | Why should you think me so careless of anything that you were concerned in, as to doubt that I had writ? |
12544 | Why would not your own resolution work as much upon you as necessity and time does infallibly upon people? |
12544 | Why, then, did the accomplished Lady Anne Clifford unite herself to so worthless a person? |
12544 | Why, then, should my absence now be less supportable to you than heretofore? |
12544 | Will it be ever thus? |
12544 | Will it not stay your father''s journey too? |
12544 | Will my cousin F. come, think you? |
12544 | Will the kindness of this letter excuse the shortness on''t? |
12544 | Will you be so good- natured? |
12544 | Will you pardon this strange scribbled letter, and the disorderliness on''t? |
12544 | Would he look on me, think you, that had pretty Mrs. Fretcheville? |
12544 | Would you be very glad to see me there, and could you do it in less disorder, and with less surprise, than you did at Chicksands? |
12544 | Would you believe that I had the grace to go hear a sermon upon a week day? |
12544 | Would you think it, that I have an ambassador from the Emperor Justinian, that comes to renew the treaty? |
12544 | Would you think that upon examination it is found that you are not an indifferent person to me? |
12544 | Yet I could beat you for writing this last strange letter; was there ever anything said like? |
12544 | You are a very pretty gentleman and a modest; were there ever such stories as these you tell? |
12544 | You have no such ladies in Ireland? |
12544 | You hear the noise my Lady Anne Blunt has made with her marrying? |
12544 | You little think I have been with Lilly, and, in earnest, I was, the day before I came out of town; and what do you think I went for? |
12544 | You would see me, you say? |
12544 | _ Letter 37._ SIR,--You say I abuse you; and Jane says you abuse me when you say you are not melancholy: which is to be believed? |
12544 | _ Letter 48._ SIR,--''Tis but an hour since you went, and I am writing to you already; is not this kind? |
12544 | how can you talk of defying fortune; nobody lives without it, and therefore why should you imagine you could? |
12544 | how do those that live with them always? |
12544 | how you are altered; and what is it that has done it? |
12544 | now I am speaking of religion, let me ask you is not his name Bagshawe that you say rails on love and women? |
12544 | poor Dorothy, who will now forbear to pity you? |
12544 | shall we ever be so happy, think you? |
12544 | whilst I think on''t, let me ask you one question seriously, and pray resolve me truly;--do I look so stately as people apprehend? |
12544 | who knows not what mischances and how great changes have often happened in a little time? |
12544 | who shall now say what are the inmost thoughts of our Dorothy? |
12544 | who would have been other? |
38191 | But where did you get it? |
38191 | But was ever work so often broken in upon? |
38191 | But was it not his most direct road to fortune? |
38191 | Did he perhaps see dimly even then that he was to be the man who should throw out the old- fashioned hand- wheel? |
38191 | He scooped turnips hollow, and lighted up the insides with candles-- but what boy has not experimented in the same way? |
38191 | His fine eyes and beautiful forehead interested me, and I said,''What book is that?'' |
38191 | Sarnia, do you get what I say?" |
38191 | So it flashed into his brain-- why not print a paper on the train? |
38191 | This sharp lesson humbled my conceit, and I determined to redouble my exertions...."May he perhaps have over- estimated his own skill? |
38191 | Was it this made him say with Napoleon,"Nothing is impossible"? |
38191 | Was there ever so idle a dog? |
38191 | Was this time prophetic of those later years when he would hold men and women fascinated by the charm of his conversation? |
38191 | We have plenty of stories of the sea,_ but what could be better than this true tale_?" |
38191 | When food had been got for the little mouths, what was left for clothes and schooling? |
38191 | Who would risk thousands on such a vague and shadowy thing? |
38191 | Would he disappoint his little son, or deceive him? |
33113 | Am I not a man,the King said sharply,"am I not a man like others? |
33113 | Could nothing be done,he asked,"to prevent England from breaking with the Papacy? |
33113 | Did he not acquit me of the infamy he has laid on me? |
33113 | What harm could there be,Casalis inquired,"in showing the decretal, under oath, to a few of the Privy Council?" |
33113 | Which Pope do you mean? |
33113 | Why do you talk of the King of England? |
33113 | [ 239]Who was this Cromwell that had grown to such importance?" |
33113 | Am I not a man?" |
33113 | Brewer thinks it proves, a record of it would have been preserved among the official State Papers? |
33113 | But would the opportunity ever come? |
33113 | Did the Pope mean, then, Casalis asked, that the commission should not proceed? |
33113 | Fisher was asked who wrote these letters:"Who was E. R.? |
33113 | Had she or had she not accepted it? |
33113 | He had once been willing-- why should he now refuse? |
33113 | How can he allow a suit so scandalous to remain so long undecided? |
33113 | How could he do that? |
33113 | How could the Emperor submit to the reproach of having consented to the death of his cousin, and sold her for the sake of a peace? |
33113 | How did Chapuys know that this was the cause of the divorce of Anne? |
33113 | How if England supported the King? |
33113 | How was it that he was able to compel them to be the voluntary instruments of his cruelty? |
33113 | If heresies arise, is it my fault? |
33113 | If the cause was tried at Rome, was it to be tried before the Cardinals in consistory or before the court of the Rota? |
33113 | If trifles, why the secrecy, and from whom were they to be concealed? |
33113 | Is it conceivable that he would have composed a document so fatal and have drawn the Pope''s pointed attention to it? |
33113 | Is it credible that so invigorating a stream flowed from a polluted fountain? |
33113 | Is it possible to believe that qualities so opposite as the popular theory requires existed in the same persons? |
33113 | Might not a personal interview be brought about between the King and the Emperor? |
33113 | Might not the Cardinal of Liège be trusted, and the Bishop of Tarbes? |
33113 | Must I accept them now? |
33113 | Should Charles then give up the point for which he was contending? |
33113 | Should the Emperor insist on a promise that it should be submitted to a General Council? |
33113 | The Emperor had done his duty in supporting his aunt; might he not now yield a little to avoid worse?" |
33113 | The Nuncio rushed to the council chamber; he saw the Dukes of Norfolk and Suffolk; he asked passionately what was meant? |
33113 | The world might mutter, but why should it be resented by the Emperor? |
33113 | They might be right, but how if they were not right? |
33113 | To what else, it is asked, can such extraordinary expressions refer unless to some disgraceful personal_ liaison_? |
33113 | Was Chapuys right or was the King? |
33113 | Was it not demanded for that purpose? |
33113 | Was not the Papacy itself degenerate, and unfit to exercise any longer the authority which it had been allowed to assume? |
33113 | Were others to be sworn, and were the two ladies chiefly concerned to be exempted? |
33113 | What force had the King? |
33113 | What if Calais could be offered them as a bait? |
33113 | What reason can be given save that it was a legend which grew out of the temper of the time? |
33113 | What those things were which no mortal was to know? |
33113 | What was he to do? |
33113 | What was to be done? |
33113 | What were the letters which had been received from the Bishop himself to be sent oversea? |
33113 | Who was the Prince?" |
33113 | Why could they not stand up in the House of Lords and refuse to sanction the measures which they disapproved? |
33113 | Why did not the Emperor make war upon the Lutherans? |
33113 | Why had not the Emperor let him know distinctly whether he would treat with him or not? |
33113 | Why had the Pope changed his mind? |
33113 | Why not then, said Clement, begin with the Swiss, who were not so strong? |
33113 | Why should not the Pope, then, allow the decretal to be put in execution? |
33113 | Why, Chapuys asked, might not the King consent also to refer the case to the Council? |
33113 | Why, said he, in quiet irony, to the Emperor''s Minister, does not your master proceed on the Brief_ de Attentatis_? |
33113 | [ 226] Why could they not dare? |
33113 | [ 73] What was a miserable pope to do? |
33113 | what English privileges had he violated? |
33113 | what was the Pope accused of? |
33113 | whether the marriage had not been wrong from the beginning? |
33113 | why had he not been warned beforehand? |
38905 | Should we wonder,he writes,"if carpenters were to remonstrate that since the Peace there is no demand for wooden legs?" |
38905 | What have you? |
38905 | What will you do with her? |
38905 | Accordingly, on Sunday, when everybody has roast meat for dinner, all the cooks were to be seen in the streets,''Pray have you seen our Chloe?'' |
38905 | Are these customs observed at the present day? |
38905 | He called upon me in the course of a cause, and becoming familiar with him, I asked him''how he came to employ me?'' |
38905 | Here are his words:-- SECOND CLOWN: But is this law? |
38905 | Oh, dare I look back? |
38905 | Who treads on my track? |
38905 | Would Jackson''s clock then be of no use to men who had few such in their villages? |
14511 | Against the evicted tenants, or against the local agents of the League? |
14511 | Against whom are all these precautions necessary? |
14511 | All that lumber there by the station? |
14511 | And do you get work here from the farmers as the labourers do in my country? |
14511 | And if we come back would we be protected? |
14511 | And if we made it half the costs? |
14511 | And nothing else? |
14511 | And so there is but what''s the good of it? 14511 And the cattle, sir? |
14511 | And these wages are the highest? |
14511 | And what do they do with them? |
14511 | And what has he for his board? |
14511 | And what of it, sir? |
14511 | And what would they be, the costs? |
14511 | And where are they? |
14511 | And who is Mr. Gilhooly, now? 14511 And who made the Committee?" |
14511 | And why should I be? 14511 Are the labourers,"I asked,"Nationalists?" |
14511 | Are you not a Catholic, then? |
14511 | But I am told you want to leave it? |
14511 | But I thought it was the landlords and the rents? |
14511 | But does n''t it cost them a good deal to go and come? |
14511 | But if you come to terms now with Mr. Tener here, will you get that money back again? |
14511 | But the English put all their prisoners in those cells, do n''t they? |
14511 | But what would you do there? |
14511 | But why do n''t you make up your minds to be men, and''discover''on yourselves, and defy these fellows? |
14511 | Did you ever read it? 14511 Did you pay over all your rent into the hands of the trustees of the League?" |
14511 | Do the farmers build houses for the labourers? |
14511 | Do you hear from them regularly? |
14511 | Do you know Mr. Lynch, the magistrate? |
14511 | Do? |
14511 | Does he live in Portumna? |
14511 | Get a war? 14511 Had this priest given in his adhesion to the Plan of Campaign?" |
14511 | Has n''t he enough, sure, to mind in Rome? 14511 Have you any objection to show us that letter?" |
14511 | His name? 14511 How did that spoil him?" |
14511 | How did this happen, the tenants being good men as you say? |
14511 | How is it with the Plan of Campaign and the Boycotting? |
14511 | Is it not worth three hundred pounds to you now? |
14511 | Is it what made me go? |
14511 | Is it what they do with them? 14511 Is that what your member tells you?" |
14511 | It''s a deal of money, ten pounds, sorr, and you would n''t have a poor man throw away ten pounds? |
14511 | It''s out of respect, then, for the Pope that you would n''t mind the Decree? |
14511 | Not if I am the bearer of a telegram for the lawyer? |
14511 | Not if Mr. O''Brien told them they must? |
14511 | Now what use have the labourers got for the Plan of Campaign? 14511 Now, do you see,"said Mr. Tener,"what it is you ask me to do? |
14511 | Oh, now then, sir, who''d be wanting to put down the hunting here in Galway?--and Ballinasloe? 14511 Oh, the new agent? |
14511 | On whom,I asked,"does the burden fall of these levies and extravagances?" |
14511 | Pray, how is that? |
14511 | Sir Thomas is to marry an heiress, sir, is n''t he, in America? |
14511 | That did n''t clear him,I said,"of the cloth, did it?" |
14511 | The best? 14511 The member, sorr? |
14511 | Then, in a case like that of Griffin''s, evicted at Glenbehy, with arrears going back to 1883, who would pay the rates? |
14511 | This country here? 14511 To the Castle, is it?" |
14511 | Was it ever put down here, the hunting? |
14511 | Was the country quiet now? |
14511 | Was there any ill- feeling towards the Marquis among the tenants? |
14511 | Was your holding worth anything to you? |
14511 | Were there many went out to America from about Loughrea? |
14511 | What am I to do in such a case, my lord? |
14511 | What can any one do to help such a man? |
14511 | What could you reply to that? |
14511 | What do they do with the wheat lands now? |
14511 | What does a farm- hand get,I asked,"if he is hired for a long time?" |
14511 | What has become of the road? |
14511 | What made you go? |
14511 | What wages do they get there? |
14511 | Where did you live there? |
14511 | Who would n''t let you? |
14511 | Whose house is that? |
14511 | Why not? |
14511 | Why not? |
14511 | Why? |
14511 | Will the Papal Decree put a stop to what there is of it? |
14511 | Work from the farmers, sir? |
14511 | Would I get one then for ten pounds? |
14511 | Would you seek a remedy, then,I asked,"in emigration?" |
14511 | Yes,I said,"I am going to see Mr. Tener, the agent, who lives there, does n''t he?" |
14511 | Yes,I said,"but did you pay over all the amount of the rent, or how much of it?" |
14511 | You did n''t like America? |
14511 | You do n''t expect to be''boycotted''for going to the Castle, do you? |
14511 | You would, then, turn the great cattle farms of Meath,I said,"into peasant holdings?" |
14511 | [ 24]Was the land so bad, then?" |
14511 | ''What do you want?'' |
14511 | After the train moved off, Mr. Gladstone said,"Was not that gentleman who so kindly vacated his place for us a clergyman?" |
14511 | And he was drunk, or who''d ever have known he had it?" |
14511 | And what is to be the end of it all? |
14511 | Are these statements correct? |
14511 | But I came back; and it was*** father that was the good man to me and to mine, else where would I be?" |
14511 | But are not the farmers here, or the Guardians, obliged to build houses for the labourers? |
14511 | But how is that possible? |
14511 | But only the other day I went to a priest in the trouble we are in, and what do you think he said to me? |
14511 | But this being thus, on what grounds are the rest of mankind invited to regard this excellent man as a"victim"worthy of sympathy and of material aid? |
14511 | But what rule can possibly be too stern to crush out the terrorism which makes such things possible? |
14511 | But what would he know about America? |
14511 | But why did n''t you stay in North Brookfield?" |
14511 | But why do you want protection? |
14511 | Could it be the banshee? |
14511 | DEAR SIR,--May I ask you to read the following circular for the people at each of the Masses on Sunday, 19th April? |
14511 | Did Canon Keller ever see this address, may I ask, Mr. Ponsonby? |
14511 | Did you know him? |
14511 | Gilhooly?" |
14511 | He demurred to this, and after a parley said,"Would a certificate do?" |
14511 | He did it all; and now, what were they doing to him? |
14511 | He said,''Why did n''t you do as you were bid? |
14511 | How could he help it? |
14511 | How did they come to be in the road? |
14511 | How had he come to be in arrears of a year in August 1886? |
14511 | How is this? |
14511 | How was it with Mr. Egan? |
14511 | I asked her,"said**"what reason they had for imagining that after all these years I would try to do them an injury? |
14511 | I asked if there were no regular farm- labourers hired at fixed rates by the year? |
14511 | I thought there was an Act of Parliament about that?" |
14511 | I wonder whether this proceeding would make the landlord a"land- grabber,"and expose him to the pains and penalties of"boycotting"? |
14511 | If this was not a fair free hand, what would be? |
14511 | Is it a question of principle, or a question of price?" |
14511 | Is it not a shame for men like you to lie down and let those fellows walk over you, and drive you out of your livelihood and your homes?" |
14511 | Is that it?" |
14511 | Is the farmers that way in America?" |
14511 | It was n''t as good a country, was it, as old Ireland? |
14511 | It''s a magistrate he is that lives there; and why? |
14511 | Kilbride?" |
14511 | Men are fools enough of themselves, do n''t you think, without needing to listen to women?" |
14511 | Of course I had a small capital to start with: but where did I get that? |
14511 | Of course with a benevolent neutral like myself, the question always recurs, Who trained them to submit to this sort of thing? |
14511 | On this the priest testily and tartly broke in,"Do you mean the man without hands or feet?" |
14511 | Pray tell me then, where I shall find the story of the Luggacurren property most fully and fairly set forth in print?" |
14511 | Shall we make use of Home Rule to take it for ourselves? |
14511 | The chairman looked up, and said,''Surely that is not your name you are reading, is it?'' |
14511 | Then, what was the finding on this inquisition, which should have been substantially as perfect as an indictment? |
14511 | Two girls, too, called out at the eviction,''You''ve bad pluck; why did n''t you tell us you were coming down the day?'' |
14511 | Upon what charge could the woman have been implicated on that vague finding? |
14511 | Was it for the constituted authorities or for the next- of- kin? |
14511 | Were you ever at Ballinasloe? |
14511 | Were you ever in Australia, sorr?" |
14511 | Were**** dispossessed or driven out of Ireland, all this outlay would come to an end, and with what result to these working- men? |
14511 | What am I to do? |
14511 | What are the facts about Mr. Flavin? |
14511 | What do they care for the labourers? |
14511 | What do you want a war for?" |
14511 | What for would n''t they ride over it?" |
14511 | What in these circumstances would have been the position of this landlord had he not possessed ample means not invested in this particular estate? |
14511 | What is his name?" |
14511 | What was the result before the Chief Commissioner? |
14511 | What were your personal relations with the tenants when you were at Inchiquin? |
14511 | When so much is known of the methods and the men, why is it that so many crimes are committed with virtual impunity? |
14511 | Where does the hardship appear in all this to Mr. Dunne or Mr. Kilbride? |
14511 | Who can wonder that it should have been regarded by Protestants in that diocese as a direct stirring up of bitter religious animosities against them? |
14511 | Who foots the bills? |
14511 | Who shall sit in judgment on that wretched mother and her son? |
14511 | Who were they?" |
14511 | Whom does such a member of Parliament represent-- the constituents who nominally elect him, or the leader who cracks the whip over him so sharply? |
14511 | Whom has all this advantaged? |
14511 | Why do n''t he naturalise them in America? |
14511 | Why not, if the plan was"legal"? |
14511 | Why were they evicted? |
14511 | Will you take a deposit- receipt of the bank for ten pounds and give me the pound change? |
14511 | Will you take the half- year?" |
14511 | Would you think that right, sir, in your country?" |
14511 | Would your people make a State of it?" |
14511 | [ 29] Where would that poor woman be now were there no"Coercion"in Ireland to protect her against"Crowner''s quest law"thus administered? |
14511 | exclaimed Denis,"what on earth are ye giving me all this money for?" |
14511 | exclaimed the confessor, angrily rubbing at his sleeve,"why did n''t ye tell me that before instead of letting me spoil my best cassock?" |
14511 | my son,"he cried at last,"what had all these men done to you that you tried to send them all into eternity? |
14511 | sure you would n''t have us to pay the costs?" |
14511 | which member?" |
14511 | who ever heard of such a thing? |
14511 | with whom? |
14511 | would we get protection for the cattle? |
3798 | Do n''t you think a leg of mutton enough for any man? |
3798 | What is it worth? |
3798 | What then-- what then? |
3798 | But how shall I describe his death? |
3798 | Hunyady was not wise enough( what gamblers are?) |
3798 | I said,"What the deuce shall I do with my horse?" |
3798 | If you met him in society, or at the clubs, he was never known to salute you but with the invariable phrase,"What news have you?" |
3798 | In appearance he was one of that sort of persons whom you could not pass in the streets without exclaiming,"Who can that be?" |
3798 | One day a youthful beau approached Brummell and said,"Permit me to ask you where you get your blacking?" |
3798 | Prince Metternich turned at last to his guest, and said,"Et vous, my Lord, que pensez vous de Napoleon?" |
3798 | The noble Lord kept his word, and the first thing he heard from Mr. Taylor was,"Well, my lord, what news? |
3798 | Then he continued, in a wild and eccentric manner:"Gronow, do you remember the beautiful Martha, the Hebe of Spiers''s? |
3798 | What was one partner among so many? |
3798 | When this story was told at the clubs, one of those listeners, who always want something more, called out,"Well, and what did Waters say?" |
3798 | Why are you not with your battalion in London? |
3798 | assented to Lord Grey''s Proposition to pass the Reform Bill coute qui coute,"Who is Silly Billy now?" |
3798 | repeated the Duke;"have you sent for a doctor?" |
3798 | what had you for dinner?" |
3798 | why do n''t they come and pitch into those French fellows?" |
12074 | Have you read the''New Bath Guide''? 12074 Indeed?" |
12074 | Sire, j''ai appris à penser--"Des chevaux? |
12074 | [ 1] Has Lord Cholmondeley delivered my pacquet? 12074 --Could I see his letters?" |
12074 | --How can one want to know one does not know what? |
12074 | 45, will that wretched Scot furnish matter? |
12074 | Am not I here at peace, unconnected with Courts and Ministries, and indifferent who is Minister? |
12074 | And who but runs that risk who is an author after seventy? |
12074 | And you, dear Sir, will you now chide my apostasy? |
12074 | Are those who have landed estates the poor? |
12074 | At least, could you not tell me you had changed your mind? |
12074 | At that instant, who do you think presented himself as Lord Bute''s guardian angel? |
12074 | Before his madness he was indisposed towards Pitt; will he be better pleased with him for his new dictatorial presumption? |
12074 | Besides, I shall not go to Paris for pharaoh-- if I play all night, how shall I see everything all day? |
12074 | But I seem to choose to read futurity, because I am not likely to see it: indeed I am most rational when I say to myself, What is all this to me? |
12074 | But no wonder-- how should the morals of the people be purified, when such frantic dissipation reigns above them? |
12074 | But tell me, ye divines, which is the most virtuous man, he who begets twenty bastards, or he who sacrifices a hundred thousand lives? |
12074 | But what became of his poor play? |
12074 | But what care you, Madam, about our Parliament? |
12074 | But what do I talk of? |
12074 | But what have I to do to look into futurity? |
12074 | Can I ever stoop to the regimen of old age? |
12074 | Can not you, now and then, sleep at the Adelphi on a visit to poor Vesey and your friends, and let one know if you do? |
12074 | Can one fear anything in the dregs of life as at the beginning? |
12074 | Can we wonder mankind is wretched, when men are such beings? |
12074 | Did I tell you that Mrs. Anne Pitt is returned, and acts great grief for her brother? |
12074 | Did not you say you should return to London long before this time? |
12074 | Do n''t you recollect very similar passages in the time of Mr. Pelham, the Duke of Newcastle, Lord Granville, and Mr. Fox? |
12074 | Do you believe me, my good Sir, when I tell you all these strange tales? |
12074 | Do you imagine people are struck with the death of a man, who were not struck with the sudden appearance of his death? |
12074 | Do you never hear them to Paris? |
12074 | Do you think I am indifferent, or not curious about what you write? |
12074 | Do you think I have no conscience? |
12074 | Do you think Rousseau was in the right, when he said that he could tell what would be the manners of any capital city from certain given lights? |
12074 | Do you think me distracted, or that your country is so? |
12074 | Does he wait to strike some great stroke, when everything is demolished? |
12074 | Does not Mr. Henshaw come to London? |
12074 | Does not she_ now_ show that it was? |
12074 | Does not the wretched woman owe her fame to you, as well as her affluence? |
12074 | Does not this letter seem an olio composed of ingredients picked out of the history of Charles I., of Clodius and Sesostris, and the"Arabian Nights"? |
12074 | Gray_ advertised: I called directly at Dodsley''s to know if this was to be more than a new edition? |
12074 | Has Madame de Cambis sung to you"_ Sans dépit, sans légèreté_? |
12074 | Have I not cleared myself to your eyes? |
12074 | Have not I done with that world? |
12074 | Have the poor landed estates? |
12074 | Have you anything you wish printed? |
12074 | Have you never a wish this way? |
12074 | He is a good King that preserves his people; and if temporising answers that end, is it not justifiable? |
12074 | How can one regret such a general_ Boute- feu_? |
12074 | How do I know but I am superannuated? |
12074 | How we should laugh at anybody being banished to Soho Square and Hammersmith? |
12074 | How will he digest that discovery of his treasure, which will not diffuse great compassion when he shall next ask a payment of his pretended debts? |
12074 | I declare I will ask no more questions-- what is it to me, whether she is admired or not? |
12074 | I do n''t know when I shall see you, but therefore must not I write to you? |
12074 | I do n''t love to transgress my monthly regularity; yet, as you must prefer facts to words, why should I write when I have nothing to tell you? |
12074 | I feel the season advancing, when mine will be piteous short; for what can I tell you from Twickenham in the next three or four months? |
12074 | I hope it will not be long before you remove to Hampton.--Yet why should I wish that? |
12074 | I know she would assist only them: but were it not better to connive at her assisting them, without attacking us, than her doing both? |
12074 | I look about for a Sir Robert Walpole; but where is he to be found? |
12074 | I mean, not morally, but has Europe left itself any other honour? |
12074 | I neither flatter myself on one hand, nor am impatient on the other-- for will either do one any good? |
12074 | I remember, at Rheims, they believed that English ladies went to Calais to drink champagne-- is this the suite of that belief? |
12074 | I should be glad to know what is the property of the poor? |
12074 | If the Monarch prevails, he becomes absolute as a Czar; if he is forced to bend, will the Parliament stop there? |
12074 | If you question my sincerity, can you doubt my admiring you, when you have gratified_ my_ self- love so amply in your"Bas Bleu"? |
12074 | In truth, what do our contemporaries of all other countries think of us? |
12074 | Is a brickmaker on a level with Mr. Essex? |
12074 | Is anything more hyperbolic than his preferences of Rowley to Homer, Shakspeare, and Milton? |
12074 | Is he a professor, or only a lover of engraving? |
12074 | Is it not amazing that the most sensible people in France can never help being domineered by sounds and general ideas? |
12074 | Is not Garrick reckoned a tolerable actor? |
12074 | Is not he yet arrived at Florence? |
12074 | Is not it clear that Will Wimble was a gentleman, though he always lived at a distance from good company? |
12074 | Is not it too great a compliment to me to be abused, too? |
12074 | Is not policy the honour of nations? |

12074 | Their taste in it is worst of all: could one believe that when they read our authors, Richardson and Mr. Hume should be their favourites? |
12074 | They have not a proof of the contrary, as they have in Garrick''s works-- but what is it to you or me what he is? |
12074 | They talk of the waste of money; are silent on the thousands of lives that have been sacrificed-- but when are human lives counted by any side? |

37058 | Is it not treason, my Lords,said Mary,"to accuse a Prince of cruelty? |
37058 | Think ye,asked Mary,"that subjects having the power may resist their princes?" |
37058 | Whereunto the King made answer, and said,''What then? 37058 [ 148] Was there any love existing at this time between Mary and her minister? |
37058 | [ 149] Was Mary in love with Bothwell at this date? 37058 And what may I say more? 37058 Are the detected fabrications of the one, entitled to any better consideration than the gratuitous suppositions of the other? 37058 Beaton asked,--Who is there?" |
37058 | Elizabeth herself seems to have been quite contented with its hue, for she very complacently asked Sir James, whether she or Mary had the finer hair? |
37058 | Elizabeth next asked which of them was of highest stature? |
37058 | Had they, on the other hand, any sufficient grounds for proceeding to further extremities against her? |
37058 | Having achieved all their more immediate objects, the only remaining question was-- what were they to do with the Queen? |
37058 | Is it surprising then, that she found it difficult to steer her course between the rocks of Scylla and the whirlpools of Charybdis? |
37058 | Knox''s answer is characteristic, and does him credit,"Why should the pleasing face of a gentlewoman affray me? |
37058 | Or was it with the Earl of Athol? |
37058 | Sir James having replied as politely as possible, she proceeded to inquire which he considered the more beautiful? |
37058 | The question hath been asked me, whether, if they were delivered us into Berwick, we would receive them? |
37058 | Was this a"forewarning"also of the"comfort"our gracious Sovereign brought into the country? |
37058 | Why confirm the suspicion against her they wish to defend, by unjustly accusing another, whom they can not prove to be criminal? |
37058 | Would the country allow a sovereign, whose reign had been hitherto so prosperous, to be at once deprived of her crown and her authority? |
37058 | what should he else do? |
15254 | After the Roman Catholic Question was settled, what ought the government to have done? |
15254 | And even if such were the case, what are we to do with our own corn? |
15254 | And how did that one then stand? |
15254 | And to what, I would ask, is this owing? |
15254 | And what did he do? |
15254 | And what has been the object of these individuals in the course which they have pursued? |
15254 | And what is the sort of political tranquillity existing in Ireland? |
15254 | And what was the meaning of the publications in the government newspapers, libelling and maligning all those who opposed the Bill? |
15254 | Are the people ruined who require and can pay for these new houses? |
15254 | Are we on this account to throw aside every guard for the maintenance of Christianity in the country? |
15254 | At whose expense? |
15254 | But I want to know whether this was, as the noble viscount insinuates, an unprecedented act? |
15254 | But I would appeal to your Lordships, whether your own experience, in matters of this description, confirms the correctness of this statement? |
15254 | But are there no corn laws in those countries? |
15254 | But how comes the question now before your Lordships? |
15254 | But how had that concession been received by the people of Ireland? |
15254 | But is that the state of things in Lower Canada? |
15254 | But it is not the property of the Church alone-- what do you say of the lay impropriator? |
15254 | But then, my Lords, the noble Lord asks,"how would you secure to them their dividends?" |
15254 | But then, was there not a very good reason for this? |
15254 | But what else have I to do? |
15254 | But what happened at Lyons-- were the disturbances there so easily quelled? |
15254 | But why did I not object to those powers being given to the Earl of Durham? |
15254 | But, instead of such a course being pursued, what has been done in the present instance? |
15254 | But, my Lords, is it exactly true, that taking foreign corn would have the effect of enabling other countries to purchase them? |
15254 | But, my lords, I beg to know whether poverty can be relieved by this description of agitation for the repeal of the union? |
15254 | Can any body say, that the Government is now left in the situation in which it ought to be left with respect to finances? |
15254 | Did any man ever before hear of taxes being imposed, for any purpose whatever, excepting to supply the necessities of the State? |
15254 | Did that arise from the people of Ireland having a less clear idea of national independence than other people? |
15254 | Did we ever hear of corn coming in from abroad, and being brought to market at a cheaper rate than it was selling for in this country? |
15254 | Do you suppose that men of their description do not calculate on the events which are likely to happen? |
15254 | Do you suppose that they do not read the history of past times? |
15254 | Do your lordships suppose that the Protestants of Ireland are not aware of that fact? |
15254 | For, after all, what are these Chartists, that are found marching about the country, and engaged in the disturbances that prevail? |
15254 | Has sufficient time been given to those measures to ascertain their effect? |
15254 | Has the noble earl heard of no laws prohibiting all exportation of corn to other countries? |
15254 | How are these troops situated? |
15254 | How can the noble Lord suppose, that the Church of England can be protected, or even the Union itself preserved in a Reformed Parliament? |
15254 | How can we control the subjects of foreign powers? |
15254 | How could he be in office under a minister whom he must oppose on, at least, one vital question of domestic policy? |
15254 | How could he give the right honourable gentleman that fair support which one member of a cabinet had a right to expect from another? |
15254 | How is any Government to meet that question? |
15254 | I ask, is there any security in that? |
15254 | I ask, then, whether such a system can be more effectual in this country, than that under which we have so long prospered? |
15254 | I ask, what case has been made out to shew a necessity for passing this measure? |
15254 | I beg leave, my Lords, to ask, what want is there of any additional circulation, when the circulation is at present greater than it ever was? |
15254 | I beg to know from that noble and learned Lord how long the system of agitation existed in Ireland both before and after the year 1825? |
15254 | I put legislation out of the question; but can the King from that Throne give to his subjects the necessary protection for their rights and property? |
15254 | I say then my Lords, is any property held so sacred by our laws as tithes? |
15254 | I want to hear how Government is to carry any measure, on the appointment of a new Parliament? |
15254 | I want to know this-- has he, in any one case, carried into execution the provisions of the Tithe Act? |
15254 | I want to know why the magistrates at Carlow and at Cork did not obtain the same support when pursuing a similar course? |
15254 | If I had all the eloquence of all the tongues ever attuned to speak, what else could I do? |
15254 | If this democratic assembly should once be established in England, does any one believe that we should continue to enjoy these vast advantages? |
15254 | In point of fact the army was withdrawn; and even if it had not been withdrawn, what was its force? |
15254 | Is a man to be robbed and ruined, because he possesses property in tithe? |
15254 | Is it believed that Louis Philippe has lost his senses? |
15254 | Is it intended that we are to subsidise France? |
15254 | Is it necessary to have a more extended circulation, to afford the means of procuring loans of money to those who have no capital and no credit? |
15254 | Is it, then, to be suffered, that the Pope, and his Majesty, or his Majesty''s secretary of state acting for him, should make law for this country? |
15254 | Is not that circumstance alone, I ask your Lordships, a proof of the increasing prosperity of the country? |
15254 | Is poverty relieved by marches of twenty- five and thirty Irish miles a- day, during the period of spring and summer, to hear seditious speeches? |
15254 | Is poverty relieved by subscriptions of thousands of pounds to the repeal rent, and the O''Connell rent, and other funds of that description? |
15254 | Is there a single instance of any tithe having been collected by Government under that Act? |
15254 | Is there any doubt as to the religious sentiments of this prince? |
15254 | Is this House to be destroyed? |
15254 | It was said, that his asking in reply to Mr. Canning''s first letter,"who was to be at the head of the new government?" |
15254 | It was the state that was in danger; and from what? |
15254 | Most certainly they ought to have done everything in their power to conciliate-- whom? |
15254 | My Lords, is all to be lost, because the noble Lords opposite have taken this course? |
15254 | My lords, I wish to know with what object they were continued? |
15254 | No my Lords; and why do we hear none of this? |
15254 | Now, I want to know, whether Portugal will not be as important to us during the agitation of that question as it has been previously? |
15254 | Now, my Lords, before I go further, let me beg you to consider what is the nature of that proposition? |
15254 | Now, my Lords, what is the ordinary course for a minister, under such circumstances, to pursue? |
15254 | Now, of whom does this class of electors consist? |
15254 | Now, what does this mean? |
15254 | Or is it to lend its aid to destroy the constitution, because Ministers persevere in this course? |
15254 | Such is the present state of this question, but how would it have stood had not that other to which he alluded been carried two years ago? |
15254 | Supposing that the growth of the sugar should, from the causes I have mentioned, fail in the West Indies, where are we to get sugar? |
15254 | The next act we have is the act of Union with Scotland; and what does that act say? |
15254 | The question is, what security does the existing system of laws, as they now stand, afford the church establishment? |
15254 | Then, again, has the noble lord not heard of the high duties imposed on the exportation of corn from those countries during the late wars? |
15254 | Then, my lords, what happened? |
15254 | Then, why is it not so stated? |
15254 | Was it with a view to address parliament to repeal the union? |
15254 | Was that the case with the Jews? |
15254 | Well then, my Lords, what follows? |
15254 | Well, my Lords, what happened in the very next session? |
15254 | Well, then, what must be inferred from the notoriety of that fact? |
15254 | Well, you may let him out, if you please; but, surely, you would not call upon the plaintiffs to pay the costs incurred by_ his_ conduct? |
15254 | Were tests any security for the heathen religion against the vital spirit of the heaven- descended energy of Christianity? |
15254 | Were tests any security to the Roman Catholic religion, against the growing light and energy of the Protestant faith? |
15254 | Were tests any security to these very universities themselves? |
15254 | Were the Jews ever in the enjoyment of the blessings of the English constitution? |
15254 | What advantages, then, can accrue to the people of Malta from the establishment of a free press? |
15254 | What are we to expect, when the whole will be of the same description? |
15254 | What brought me through many difficulties in the war, and the negociations for peace? |
15254 | What but that the repeal of the union, so far as a vote of parliament is concerned, is hopeless? |
15254 | What is Malta? |
15254 | What is the consequence? |
15254 | What is the object of the arrangement? |
15254 | What must we expect when these lower classes will preponderate everywhere? |
15254 | What security, then, I ask, my Lords, is to be found in the existing system? |
15254 | What then became our duty? |
15254 | What then, I would ask your Lordships, is to be expected hereafter, should the system laid down in this Bill be established in this country? |
15254 | What was the consequence? |
15254 | What was the course then adopted by Parliament? |
15254 | What was the meaning, I ask, of the friends of government taking the course they have taken out of doors, with reference to the Reform Bill? |
15254 | What was the next step of which the Protestants of Ireland complained? |
15254 | Whence has the money come? |
15254 | Who led them there? |
15254 | Who pays the increased rents for them? |
15254 | Who pays the money for re- building these houses? |
15254 | Who, then, is it for? |
15254 | Why, I ask, by its delay after the year 1825? |
15254 | Why, I ask-- for what reason-- is all this to be done? |
15254 | Why? |
15254 | Why? |
15254 | Will any man venture to say, that Catholic power does not exist at present, either here or in Ireland? |
15254 | Will not our reception in the Tagus, and friendly occupation of it, be as important to England now, as it has been heretofore? |
15254 | With the exception of one or two questions of high constitutional principle, the"_ cui bono?_"is the view his mind naturally takes. |
15254 | Would the manufacturer find any advantage in it, when the diminished value of their wages was forcing the labourers to raise the market upon him? |
15254 | Would the manufacturing labourer benefit by this? |
15254 | Would the merchant exporter gain anything by the change? |
15254 | a quarter, was there any such quantity of foreign wheat introduced as was sufficient to lower the price? |
15254 | and can any body deny that the House of Commons, which consents to such a proposition, is a delegated House of Commons? |
15254 | departed from? |
15254 | less than what could be got for it in the general markets of this country? |
15254 | my Lords, is it to be said that the country is to be tied down to be governed by a system which no man can say is practicable? |
39892 | Does it plunge and roar thus, year in, year out, day and night, continuously? |
39892 | Rather ask what is not seen? |
39892 | What is to be seen from the top? |
39892 | When he arrived he saw that he was unexpected, and asked''did you not get my message?'' |
40020 | Of Sonning who can write with sufficient inspiration? |
40020 | Skelton also wrote a satire beginning:-- Why come ye not to court? |
40020 | To the Kynge''s Court Or Hampton Court? |
40020 | To whyche court? |
40072 | He used often to say to the Duke of Wellington,"I was there, was n''t I, Arthur?" |
33613 | Can it be true? |
33613 | Is there so much gold in London that it is trodden underfoot? 33613 Nay, why not?" |
33613 | Think again,said his master;"hast thou no little thing thou canst spare? |
33613 | And was the Charter House left empty to fall into ruins? |
33613 | And what of the gold? |
33613 | Are not Mayors appointed every year in October? |
33613 | Are not the pillars and arches about it beautiful? |
33613 | But many another has been as rich and great, yet no stories are told of them; what makes Whittington different from all others? |
33613 | Can you not fancy how well she treated them, and how happy she was when she sent them home to Calais? |
33613 | Did their prayers and solemn services strengthen and comfort them then? |
33613 | Did they believe it? |
33613 | Do you know what shambles are? |

36656 | And when your liberties are gone, how long will your religion remain? |
36656 | And whither are you going? |
36656 | And why was that union so vigorously opposed by all those that adhered to the jacobite interest? |
36656 | Are they not the friends of France and Rome? |
36656 | But if that is not sufficient, what do they say to you as to his love of the liberty of his country? |
36656 | But what has all this been for? |

36656 | Is he not tied by the laws of friendship and gratitude to be so? |
36656 | Is this acting like Britons; like protestants, like lovers of liberty? |
36656 | Nay, is it acting like men of reasonable souls, and men who have the light of common sense to act by? |

36656 | Why was the settlement of the succession in a protestant line made the principal reason of uniting the two kingdoms together? |
36656 | Why, if he will abjure the Romish errors and turn protestant, why, I say, do the papists speak in his favour? |
36656 | Will he be so ungrateful as not to be always at the devotion and command of the French king? |
36656 | Will he not always be in his interest, nay, ought he not to be so? |

30591 | The man in a mask was Jack Ketch( whatever his name was); who can doubt it? |
30591 | The question is, what Ministers will do-- go on with the Bill, or throw it up, resign, make Peers, or what? |
30591 | There is no reason to believe that other constituencies materially differ from this; what therefore is the result? |
30591 | They all ask the same question,''Do you make a long stay here?'' |
30591 | What can they do? |
30591 | What is it, then, which menaces the existence of the constitution we live under? |
30591 | What then? |
30591 | What was the loud and eternal cry of the Lords, and of all the Conservatives, when the Reform Bill was in agitation? |
30591 | What would a dissolution do for them? |
30591 | When somebody cried,''Question,''he burst out,''Do you think to put me down? |
30591 | Where was the man, Roundhead or Puritan, who as an amateur would have mounted the scaffold to perform this office? |
30591 | Who could ever have thought of him in such a station? |
30591 | Who laughs now?'' |
30591 | Who would have dared to say that this Government could have gone on without either Stanley in one House or Lord Grey in the other? |
30591 | Who( to see him and hear him thus) would take him for the greatest orator and statesman of the day? |
30591 | With respect to Lord John himself the question is, Can he continue in office and let the Bill pass without the clause? |
30591 | burst out Chatham,''Order? |
30591 | come, let''s have done our tea, that we may n''t miss him, eh?'' |
30591 | does he know enough of what is going on in the world?'' |
30591 | is it possible?'' |
30591 | rejoined the other King;''why do n''t you drink wine? |
30591 | said he;''is he a fit man for the purpose?'' |
30591 | said the King,''Deputy- Governor of what? |
30591 | what do you think?'' |
34713 | Can it be argued,he asked,"that any country shall be obliged to accept what a foreign State thinks proper to consider as happiness? |
34713 | In what does the tolerance consist? |
34713 | Is it in permitting the Dissenting children to be instructed in those schools in which the Church doctrines alone are taught? 34713 Is it sufficient to call a man a barbarian in order to discharge oneself of all obligations to treat him with common fairness and consideration?... |
34713 | What use can the State make of this man? |
34713 | What were the relations between the House of Commons and the constituencies? 34713 What,"he asked,"had of late years been the drift of their Irish legislation? |
34713 | What{ 24} use can this man make of himself? |
34713 | And are you not, then, laying the foundation of a system hostile to the real interests of freedom, and destructive of the peace of the world?... |
34713 | And if these, why not others? |
34713 | And what was that spirit? |
34713 | And why? |
34713 | Are we to release dangerous criminals because they refuse food? |
34713 | Bentham asked,"How does it work?" |
34713 | Brougham replied in the language of pure Liberalism:"Assuming that no practical grievance exists, is the stigma nothing? |
34713 | Burke and Coleridge asked,"How has it grown?" |
34713 | But they did nothing to solve what Mr. John Morley told them was the immediate problem of the hour,"How are you to govern Ireland? |
34713 | But what does all this come to, gentlemen? |
34713 | But what is the difference between these"real"rights of Burke and the"natural"rights of Paine? |
34713 | But what other term is to be applied to this action, of which I am informed on the best possible authority? |
34713 | But what was that unity worth, which was employed for the shameful purpose of destroying the local independence which it existed only to maintain? |
34713 | But why not? |
34713 | Can nothing cure these step- by- step Reformists of their insanity? |
34713 | Cartwright and Paine asked,"How does it conform to reason?" |
34713 | Could the House dictate to the constituencies whom they should elect? |
34713 | Did the Colonies exist for the benefit of the Mother Country or for their own? |
34713 | Does it not follow that if they could control their own circumstances they would cease to be wretched? |
34713 | Had it also the moral right? |
34713 | Had it not been, as far as they could, to assimilate the laws of that country to those of Britain? |
34713 | Had or had not one section of the Anglo- Saxon race the right to compel another section? |
34713 | Had the Irish Parliament the right to surrender its powers to a Parliament of the United Kingdom without receiving the approval of its own electors? |
34713 | He asked,"How has it grown?" |
34713 | How are these rights created and maintained, but by public opinion and current ideas of morality? |
34713 | How can a Liberal man dictate to a woman how she shall exert herself in society? |
34713 | How can we with any propriety speak of the rights of Robinson Crusoe before the arrival of Friday? |
34713 | How is the State to know what conduces to the welfare of the community? |
34713 | If Government taxes the raw material of his industry, is not his right to the fruits of it being impaired? |
34713 | If all are corrupt, does it matter very much whether all or only a few have power? |
34713 | If it could, did it not follow that members were neither representatives nor delegates, but an absolute oligarchy?" |
34713 | If the domination of one class of men over another class of men had led to abuse, did not the domination of one sex over another also lead to abuse? |
34713 | If we do not,"What are we to offer to Canada in the way of a material interest strong enough to make her foreign policy identical with ours? |
34713 | Is it nothing even that the honourable baronet should say, as he has said this night,''We will allow you to do so and so''? |
34713 | Is it nothing that a Dissenter, wherever he goes, is looked on and treated as an inferior person to a Churchman?... |
34713 | Prior to that date juries had been confined in libel cases to answering two questions: was the document published? |
34713 | Was England to remain passive while they were reduced once more into subjection? |
34713 | Was a homogeneous society two thousand miles away to be governed by an English Government in a way of which it disapproved? |
34713 | Was or was not a Dissenter to count for as much in the State as a Churchman? |
34713 | What is it that gives the honourable baronet the title to use this language... but that the law encourages him to use it? |
34713 | What is the State? |
34713 | What is the community to do with him? |
34713 | What is to be the remedy? |
34713 | What is to be the result? |
34713 | When the medical profession is opened, how can any other logically be kept closed? |
34713 | Who are the community? |
34713 | Why should it be presumed that a woman was naturally incapable of managing her own affairs? |
34713 | Why should it be presumed that dependence and feebleness of mind were natural to women? |
34713 | Why should it be presumed that it was natural that men should regulate even the private lives of women? |
34713 | Why should we persist in maintaining the same system for women? |
34713 | Why? |
34713 | Will they call forth their thoughts, their feelings, their actions? |
34713 | Will they lift them above the brutes? |
34713 | Will they make man more manly? |
34713 | Will they make them more moral beings? |
34713 | Will they raise men and women in the scale of creation? |
34713 | and what did its words mean? |
34713 | as earnestly as"How does it work?" |
34713 | { 208} Were their affairs to be managed by Canadians or Englishmen? |

36589 | Ai n''t it cold? |
36589 | But you ca n''t very well have too much of a good thing, can you? |
36589 | But you expect people to buy yours, do n''t you? |
36589 | Good father, is it true what I hear, that Saint Thomas while alive was exceedingly kind to the poor? |
36589 | Is there a good bottom here, my man? |
36589 | Make it out, is it? 36589 Preserves? |
36589 | Then why do n''t you make preserves of some of your fruit? |
36589 | Then why do you grow it? |
36589 | Well, then, if you ca n''t sell it, do n''t preserve it, and wo n''t eat any of it,_ what_ do you do with it? |
36589 | What do you say, Tom? |
36589 | What was she afraid of, then? |
36589 | Yes, but why not eat some of it yourself? |
36589 | A second he married-- she departed-- what then? |
36589 | All knelt down and worshipped him, and a farmer, one Alexander Foad, kneeling, asked"should he follow him in body or in heart?" |
36589 | And if a saint could anticipate the nineteenth century in newspapers, why should not the Fiend do the same in boots? |
36589 | And who other than a reckless Bohemian would be so far indifferent to public opinion as to sketch outside a gin- palace? |
36589 | Barley was never so low as 20_s._ What, therefore, is the implication of the ominous legend, in respect of barley? |
36589 | Besides, surely you eat some of your own fruit, do n''t you?" |
36589 | Bowled, did I say? |
36589 | But how to catalogue the kinds of them that dwell here? |
36589 | But where is the"Rose Hotel"now? |

36589 | Is this, then, the famous hill where travellers were wo nt to be robbed? |
36589 | Master Watts entertained the Queen at his house on Boley(? |
36589 | Next day the bereaved villager is heard to execute fruitless variations of"Tell me, shepherds, have you seen my Flora pass this way?" |
36589 | The coster? |
36589 | The man, at the first, as commonly it fareth with men disturbed in their rest, demanded, somewhat roughly,''who was there?'' |
36589 | We have to ask ourselves,"Could a child of two years and a little over one month, understand and talk like that?" |
36589 | What county hath this isle that can compare with thee? |
36589 | Where are those orchards, woods, and gardens now? |
36589 | Where is Winchester House, the grand palace of the Bishops of Winchester, that looked upon the river? |
36589 | Where its neighbour, Rochester House? |
36589 | Where the"Tabard,"the"King''s Head,"the"Catherine Wheel,"the"Boar''s Head,"the"Old Pick my Toe,"or the"Three Widows"? |
36589 | Where, also, the"George,"which at the time of Waterloo kept forty pairs of post- horses? |
36589 | Where, too, is Suffolk House, the princely residence of the Dukes of Suffolk? |
36589 | Why? |
36589 | Yet yov doe all By the Spirits call As yov pretend: bvt pray What Spirit is''t? |
36589 | and where the"Red Lion"? |

36589 | he shouted to Erasmus,"Do these asses expect us to kiss the shoes of all good men that have ever lived? |
36589 | how d''you make that out?" |
36589 | replied the King,"whom shall men-- to say nothing of kings-- trust? |
36589 | says Harry Bailly, the Host,"that''s all very well, you know, but how is it that this wonderful master of yours wears such a threadbare coat?" |
36589 | what''s that, mister?" |
36589 | you guess it, do you not? |
39685 | Any other of the cottagers got any old chairs, or china? |
39685 | Anything old inside? |
39685 | Are we all taken in, mister? |
39685 | But why not find a tenant? |
39685 | Is it the dressmakers ye mean? |
39685 | May I look round inside? |
39685 | And do not the empty brackets over many an ancient tomb tell a tale? |
39685 | Are the warriors''hearts therein, or the bones of the five bambinoes? |
39685 | But how about the older part of the inhabitants? |
39685 | Does not this open up a question worth consideration? |
39685 | Had the good farmer flown in consequence, and sought an abode that had not become a literary landmark? |
39685 | Had the lines existed then, would the poor queen have derived comfort when the news reached her of her son''s death on the battlefield? |
39685 | How is it these appurtenances of domestic comfort have entirely died out like the now extinct warming- pan? |
39685 | Is it yet too much to hope that pity may be taken upon what is undoubtedly one of the finest Elizabethan houses in England? |
39685 | It is a novel experience to arrive there in the dusk and walk(?) |
39685 | Sir Amias had the custody of Mary Queen of Scots during the latter part of her long imprisonment, and to him the"Good Queen"(?) |
39685 | Strange that this county, so proud of the Lord Protector( for has it not recently set up a gorgeous statue at St. Ives to his memory? |
39685 | The paint may be in excellent taste, and like it was originally; but when the original paint has gone, is it not best to leave the woodwork plain? |
39685 | Therefore why not take some measures to tone down the staring stone or obtrusive red- brick before the masonry is constructed? |
39685 | Truly the high box- pews are not loved by antiquarians, but is it not better to leave them than replace them with something modern and uncomfortable? |
39685 | Was not Broadway dying a natural death when Jonathan, who invariably tells us what treasures we possess, stepped in and made it popular? |
39685 | What have become of the helmets of the ancient lords of the manors? |
39685 | it has vanished-- where? |
40584 | Are we then to murmur?--to feel as if robbed? |
40584 | But is the tide everything? |
40584 | Nowhere do we see a better illustration than is supplied in Liverpool of the primitive Judean market- places,"Why stand ye here all the day idle?" |
40584 | The first phrase heard in a Lancashire crowd is,"Where are you thrutching?" |
36628 | And how shall they stand together twenty or thirty years, think ye, if the queen should live so long? |
36628 | And if so, what is the protestant religion to us? |
36628 | And if they can not be in a posture to defend and maintain him when they have him, how shall he be encouraged to venture himself among them? |
36628 | And what a noise about who shall or shall not be king, the Lord knows when? |
36628 | And why the contrary to this was not made appear, according to the promises which, they say, though falsely, were made by the late King William? |
36628 | Are not any of these considerations enough to make any of us averse to the protestant succession? |
36628 | Besides, are not your breaches come up to that height already as to let any impartial bystander see that popery must be the consequences? |
36628 | But here comes an objection in our way, which, however weighty, we must endeavour to get over, and this is, what becomes of the abjuration? |
36628 | Had we not much better be papists than traitors? |
36628 | Had we not much better deny our God, our baptism, our religion, and our lives, than deny our lawful prince, our next male in a right line? |
36628 | How will it come in? |
36628 | If it should be asked how have these any such reference? |
36628 | If the physicians prescribe a vomit for the cure of any particular distemper, will the patient complain of being made sick? |
36628 | Is it agreeable to the true interest of the nation? |
36628 | Is it not a strange thing we can not be quiet with the queen we have, but we must all fall into confusion and combustions about who shall come after? |
36628 | Is this rational? |
36628 | May not popery be very good in its kind? |
36628 | Nay, one, two, three, or four times? |
36628 | Nay, when even in their hearts they have all the while resolved to be for the pretender? |
36628 | Now, what say the people, must we think of living twenty or thirty years in this wrangling condition we are now in? |
36628 | Popery came in, as they feared, and all went to ruin; and what came of the protestant successor? |
36628 | The first thing it seems to be made clear to the common people is, whether the pretender was the lawful son of King James, yea, or no? |
36628 | The son of King James, or the son of a cinder- woman? |
36628 | Well, well, and what hurt will this be to you? |
36628 | Well, what followed, I pray? |
36628 | What can be a more lively representation of our case now before us? |
36628 | What if this popery, like the vomit made of poison, be the only physic that can cure you? |
36628 | What is all this but telling us plainly that the whole nation is running into popery and the pretender? |
36628 | What must become of trade, of religion, of society, of relation, of families, of people? |
36628 | What should he resolve on? |
36628 | What, then, is the signification to the people of Britain whether the person called the pretender be legitimate, or no? |
36628 | Why should we think it strange, then, that protestants now in this age, and Church of England protestants too, should be for a popish pretender? |
36628 | Why, pray folks, how old is the queen, and when is she to die? |
36628 | You call such a man the pretender, but is he not the son of our king? |
36628 | [_ Price 6d._] REASONS AGAINST THE SUCCESSION,& c. What strife is here among you all? |
36628 | and what was the consequence? |
36628 | should you think it amiss to have me talk of doing it openly and avowedly? |
36628 | what will become of you at this rate? |
36628 | why, do all these people say we are perjured already? |
36628 | would you bring over the family of Hanover to have them murdered? |
40212 | But how? |
40212 | For what do they receive so many thousands of the public money? |
40212 | For what have we universities and colleges, and so many thousand priests who have to boast of collegiate education? |
40212 | For what? |
40212 | Have their institutions softened the savage ferocity of man? |
40212 | Have they developed a clear system of principles, either moral, scientific, or philosophical? |
40212 | Have you no priests in your Society? |
40212 | I will pledge myself to sell it with the other, Is there not a Bishop amongst you that can again attempt to do what Watson has vainly attempted? |
40212 | Is your answer-- yes? |
40212 | Moses, Zoroaster, Jesus, and Mahomet, are names celebrated in history; but what are they celebrated for? |
40212 | What is that chimerical faith in which you pretend to centre your future hopes, if you fear the result of your fellow mortal''s enquiry into it? |
40212 | What is the religion that you profess, that you are so much alarmed at every attempt to investigate its merits? |
40212 | Why do you not set them to write a volume of the same size to refute the arguments and assertions of Paine? |
28980 | I suppose you to mean that if He could, I ought to be able to give you what you ask? |
28980 | ''Can a man of your age,''he asks,''have the accumulated capital of knowledge necessary to stand such a periodical expenditure?'' |
28980 | ''Did you ever know your father do a thing because it was pleasant?'' |
28980 | ''Gurney, what''s the difference between justification and sanctification?'' |
28980 | ''How can we sow the seed and refuse to recognise the crop?'' |
28980 | ''I said at last,''he proceeds,''"If Jesus Christ were here, could He say no more than you do?" |
28980 | ''Stephen major,''he once said to my brother,''if you do not take more pains, how can you ever expect to write good longs and shorts? |
28980 | ''Was not that,''says Fitzjames,''a truly British comment?'' |
28980 | ''What difference can it make,''he asks,''whether millions of years ago our ancestors were semi- rational baboons?'' |
28980 | ''Why are you,''asked one of his friends, who was a thorough partisan,''such a devil in politics?'' |
28980 | ''You have done your work and got your fee, and what more do you want?'' |
28980 | ''[ 154] This, therefore, leads to the ultimate question: What, in the utilitarian phrase, is the''sanction''of morality? |
28980 | And even if there be none, why should you not live like a man, Enjoying whatever you have as much and as long as you can? |
28980 | And here, too, in 1891 he published two little volumes of verse:''Lapsus Calami''and''Quo Musa Tendis?'' |
28980 | And what is the end of the law? |
28980 | And why should we maintain morality? |
28980 | Are we bound to treat semi- barbarous nations on the same terms as we consider to govern our relations with France or Germany? |
28980 | Because Christianity is true and all other religions false? |
28980 | Briefly, the utilitarian asks, What is the sanction of morality? |
28980 | But if so, what becomes of the morality? |
28980 | But if the facts are insufficient to a lawyer''s eye, what is to happen? |
28980 | But is such morality satisfactory? |
28980 | But what then? |
28980 | But what was the message which could reach a hard- headed young''lawyer by nature''with a turn for Benthamism? |
28980 | But what was to be said for the Church of England since the Reformation? |
28980 | By what law? |
28980 | Can it, for example, give sufficient reasons for self- sacrifice-- that is, neglect of my own happiness? |
28980 | Can it, then, be indifferent in regard to religions? |
28980 | Consider men as a multitude of independent units, and the problem occurs, How can they be bound into wholes? |
28980 | Could he have been asked by Providence at any time, Where shall I place you? |
28980 | Could he then lean to Rome? |
28980 | Could the two sounds, separated by an interval, be one sound? |
28980 | Did human memory run to the year 1190, when Richard I. set out on the third crusade, or to 1194, when he returned? |
28980 | Do they not mean this or that, he would ask, which is quite different to what they had been made to mean? |
28980 | Do we, then, disbelieve in our own creed, or are we engaged in a solemn mockery? |
28980 | Does that imply that Scotland was then subject to force, and that now force has disappeared? |
28980 | Have I any right to talk of streets running with blood? |
28980 | He looked at the dark, grave man and wondered,''Is he now reading my character at a glance?'' |
28980 | He then reduced the sentence to nine months, saying,''Does that satisfy you?'' |
28980 | How are we to deal with that great inheritance bequeathed to us by the courage of heroes and the wisdom of statesmen? |
28980 | How are we to know what is right and wrong, and what are our motives for approving and disapproving the good and the bad? |
28980 | How does this apply to the case of sex? |
28980 | How many actions even, which would be gladly remembered, are constantly forgotten? |
28980 | How were they to be combined with his earlier prepossessions? |
28980 | How, again, is a European to appreciate the value of an oath made upon a cow''s tail or a tiger''s skin? |
28980 | How, then, was Newman to answer an inquirer? |
28980 | However reluctant they may be, they will have to answer the question, Is this religion true or not? |
28980 | I have often wondered over the problem, What constitutes the identity of a newspaper? |
28980 | If I may remove one stone from the building, am I not at liberty to remove any stone which proves to be superfluous? |
28980 | If you are not a man of taste, how can you ever hope to be of use in the world?'' |
28980 | If you do not write good longs and shorts, how can you ever be a man of taste? |
28980 | If you help the Brahmos alone, what will you say to the''radical league,''which repudiates all religious belief? |
28980 | Is he not undertaking too much? |
28980 | Is it not more likely that, at a pinch, I might myself run in quite a different direction? |
28980 | Is it possible_ ridentem dicere verum_? |
28980 | Is it, then, a treatise upon Greek or Latin grammar, or on the grammatical construction of classical authors? |
28980 | Is the end good, and are the means adequate and not excessively costly? |
28980 | Is the mob triumphant in Paris? |
28980 | Is there,''he asks,''anything illogical or inconsistent in this view?'' |
28980 | Lord Lytton, some time after this, wrote to him about his book, and he replies to the question,''What is a good man?'' |
28980 | Might not his ambition have to struggle with similar obstacles at the bar or in the pulpit? |
28980 | Now the oppressed had the scourge in their own hands; how would they apply it? |
28980 | One point may just be mentioned: If a man steals a cow, and sells it to an innocent purchaser, who is to suffer the loss when the theft is discovered? |
28980 | Or are we morally entitled to take into account the fact that they are semi- barbarous? |
28980 | Or to the Romanising party in the Church? |
28980 | Shall we endeavour to govern on native principles and by native agency? |
28980 | Sometimes they descended to mere commonplaces-- Is a little knowledge a dangerous thing? |
28980 | That, I understand, is like asking a lawyer, What is a_ Habeas Corpus_? |
28980 | The one question is what is to be the supreme authority? |
28980 | The only question is which? |
28980 | The question for the lawyer is, did the prisoner mean to kill?--not, what were his motives for killing? |
28980 | The''Quo Musa Tendis?'' |
28980 | Then the question occurs: Is this a logical argument, or an appeal from argument to feeling? |
28980 | To maintain the law? |
28980 | To parody a famous phrase of Hume''s, Cambridge virtually said to its pupils,''Is this a treatise upon geometry or algebra? |
28980 | Was there, he asked, any real hardship in that? |

39500 | Where, oh Kincora, is Brian the Great? 39500 ''And if I be first killed,''said Cuchulainn,''how soon wilt thou avenge me?'' 39500 ''And if I be slain,''says Conall,''how soon wilt thou avenge me?'' 39500 And where is the beauty that once was thine? 39500 But what good did the jumping do him, or why did he jump? 39500 How, then, did it happen that the churches in Clonmacnois were so small? 39500 It has often been said,What''s in a name?" |

39500 | The question is, How long will it be until there is real danger from the encroachment of the sea on the west coast of Ireland? |
39500 | The question to be solved is, Why did the Danes act so differently in Ireland from the way they acted in England and in other countries? |
39500 | Then Duffy came and said to Brigit,''Hast thou boiled the bacon, and do all the portions remain?'' |

37080 | And now was the King to be bullied into sacrificing one of his greatest subjects, unheard, unjudged, at the bidding of Spain''s ambassador? |
37080 | And what would be more likely than that the weak Cobham should be moved by the influence of his strong friend, Ralegh? |
37080 | And who would succeed his Queen Elizabeth? |
37080 | But still Ralegh insisted, unwavering in dreadful firmness, on his question, Why had not instructions been obeyed? |
37080 | Can not one dropp of gall be hidden in so great heapes of sweetness? |
37080 | Did England intend to support Spain and the Catholics, or the Protestant cause? |

37080 | On the scaffold Blount asked,"Is Sir Walter Ralegh here?" |
37080 | Popham asked,"Wherefore should this book be burnt?" |
37080 | Ralegh naturally asked,"What infer you from this?" |
37080 | The Queen''s person, forsooth, was not to be harmed: she was to be conveyed to his Holiness the Pope at Rome? |
37080 | The two are singularly vivid; they clash splendidly-- and the issue? |
37080 | Then Ralegh cried out,"What dost thou fear? |
37080 | They write nimbly of true nobility: they describe the deterioration of an old woman''s body; they ask, could a man care for such a person? |
37080 | To the royal children?" |
37080 | To which Ralegh answered,"If truth be constant and constancy be in truth, why hath he forsworn that that he hath said? |
37080 | To which Ralegh answered:"Master Attorney, I pray you to whom or to what end speak you all this? |

37080 | Why had it pleased His Majesty to hand over the document to the Spanish ambassador and break his royal oath? |
37080 | Why should the mine be opened that others might reap the benefit? |
37080 | Why was Gondomar the Spanish ambassador held in such esteem? |

36795 | Are mistakes never more to teach us what to avoid? |
36795 | Are the errors of others no more to be a warning to us? |
36795 | But has this been done? |
36795 | Can not some agreement be come to between the parties? |
36795 | Could such a lunatical statement be written by any one, and his friends not procure a magistrate''s order for his removal to the nearest asylum? |

40759 | Can we discover any explanation for this coincidence of a prehistoric track with the high- road of our own time, which is almost indifferent to soil? |
40759 | For this he is still ridiculed, but what else are the most learned saying now? |
40759 | Now what is the meaning of this multiplicity, and of all this interest in preserving such a multiplicity even by artificial means? |
40759 | Now, had they any reason to do this? |
40759 | Now, what would have given this decayed spot its importance long ago? |
40759 | To sum up all these questions we may ask in one phrase, as we asked at Canterbury: What made Winchester? |
40759 | When the Straits had been crossed and England entered, whither would the principal road lead? |
40759 | Why did Canterbury, an inland town, become the goal of this long journey towards the narrow seas? |
40759 | Why did Winchester come to absorb the traffic of the west, and to form the depôt and the political centre of southern England? |
40759 | Why was this? |
40759 | Why? |

40759 | for the neighbourhood of the river? |

41399 | Most of the Admirals look like Admirals-- and is there a better thing to be? |
41399 | These are extravagances of hyperbole, but they are a reflection of the folly that asks,"What is the Navy doing?" |
41399 | When I hear that fatuous question I retort,"What on earth and what on the sea is the Navy not doing?" |
41399 | Will you express to the officers and men the pleasure it has given me to be again with them during the last few days?" |
4143 | shall you and I never travel together again?" |
4148 | So to the office, where a great conflict with Wood and Castle about their New England masts? |

15043 | But is this so in fact? |
15043 | But shall we therefore say, that the removal of pain or its diminution is always simply painful? |
15043 | But what are the principles of this extraordinary composition? |
15043 | But what did his council? |
15043 | But what is the real fact? |
15043 | But what relation has the calf of the leg to the neck; or either of these parts to the wrist? |
15043 | But where are his_ men_ of virtue and ability to be found? |
15043 | But why take credit for so extremely reduced a deficiency at all? |
15043 | But will no other succeed to it? |
15043 | But_ cui bono_ all this detail of our debt? |
15043 | Can not I say, as truly at least, of human laws, that where mystery begins, justice ends? |
15043 | Can we conceive a more discouraging post of duty than this? |
15043 | Can we ever flatter ourselves that we shall wage a more successful war? |
15043 | Did the export trade revive by these regulations in 1765, during which year they continued in their full force? |
15043 | Do not the laws absolutely confine the colonies to buy from us, whether foreign nations sell cheaper or not? |
15043 | Do they imagine they shall increase our piety, and our reliance on God, by exploding his providence, and insisting that he is neither just nor good? |
15043 | Do they pretend to exalt the mind of man, by proving him no better than a beast? |
15043 | Do we not read the authentic histories of scenes of this nature with as much pleasure as romances or poems, where the incidents are fictitious? |
15043 | Does he call the price of wheat at this day, between 32 and 40 shillings per quarter in London dear? |
15043 | Does he not know that wine, brandy, soap, candles, leather, saltpetre, gunpowder, are taxed in France? |
15043 | Does the author mean to make our kings as immortal in their personal as in their politic character? |
15043 | Does the author then seriously mean to propose in Parliament a land- tax, or any tax for 100,000_l._ a year upon Ireland? |
15043 | For has not this leviathan of civil power overflowed the earth with a deluge of blood, as if he were made to disport and play therein? |
15043 | For instance, what does he mean by talking of an adherence to the old navigation laws? |
15043 | For what else do we learn from this note? |
15043 | For what purpose, in any cause, shall we hereafter contend with France? |
15043 | For why should he be shocked at a shipwreck on the coast of Bohemia, who does not know but that Bohemia may be an island in the Atlantic ocean? |
15043 | Has he well considered what an immense operation any change in our constitution is? |
15043 | Has the author given a single light towards any material reduction of it? |
15043 | Have we taxes of such weight, or anything at all of the compulsion, in the article of_ salt_? |
15043 | Having undertaken the commonwealth, what remained for them to do? |
15043 | Here is a very noble picture; and in what does this poetical picture consist? |
15043 | How can our author have the heart to describe this as any sort of parallel to our situation? |
15043 | How can these provinces be represented at Westminster? |
15043 | How does the slender stalk of the rose agree with the bulky head under which it bends? |
15043 | How much happier are they? |
15043 | If this system can not be rigorously adhered to in practice,( and what system can be so?) |
15043 | If you would inspire this compatriot of ours with pity or regard for one of these, would you not hide that distinction? |
15043 | In a lawsuit the question is, who has a right to a certain house or farm? |
15043 | In these scandalous lives, was there anything more scandalous than the mode of punishing_ one culpable individual_? |
15043 | Is government strengthened? |
15043 | Is he more rich, or more splendid, or more powerful, or more at his ease, by so many labors and contrivances? |
15043 | Is it that this strength will be subservient to you, to your ease, to your pleasure, to your interest in any sense? |
15043 | Is not the reader a little astonished at the proposal of an American representation from that quarter? |
15043 | Is not the same reason available in theology and in politics? |
15043 | Is this_ export_ the true idea of the Newfoundland trade in the light of a beneficial branch of commerce? |
15043 | Look at a man, or any other animal of prodigious strength, and what is your idea before reflection? |
15043 | Looking now upon the effects of some of those fancies, may we not with equal reason call it likewise the Newgate and the Bridewell of the universe? |
15043 | On the other hand, when we recover our health, when we escape an imminent danger, is it with joy that we are affected? |
15043 | On this idea how stands the account? |
15043 | On what other idea are all our prohibitions, regulations, guards, penalties, and forfeitures, framed? |
15043 | Or has the cruelty of that series of sanguine tyrants, the Cæsars, ever presented such a piece of flagrant and extensive wickedness? |
15043 | Or suppose the spectator placed where he may take a direct view of such a building, what will be the consequence? |
15043 | The delay of the law is, your lordship will tell me, a trite topic, and which of its abuses have not been too severely felt not to be complained of? |
15043 | The swan, confessedly a beautiful bird, has a neck longer than the rest of his body, and but a very short tail: is this a beautiful proportion? |
15043 | Then what does he get by this method on the side of acquiescence? |
15043 | Then what has the crown or the king profited by all this fine- wrought scheme? |
15043 | Then what tax is it he will impose? |
15043 | This is the only proof of the value of revenues; what would an interested man rate them at? |
15043 | Well, and what then? |
15043 | Were over the honors and emoluments of the state more lavishly squandered upon persons scandalous in their lives than during that period? |
15043 | What advantage do we derive from such writings? |
15043 | What did our ministers? |
15043 | What do I gain by this, but the dissatisfaction to find that I had been imposed upon? |
15043 | What do all these fine observations signify? |
15043 | What does he therefore infer from it, favorable to the enforcement of that law? |
15043 | What does he think of re- election? |
15043 | What does he think of the commerce of the city of Glasgow, and of the manufactures of Paisley and all the adjacent country? |
15043 | What has the author said on the reduction of any head of this deficiency upon the land- tax? |
15043 | What idea do you derive from so excellent a picture? |
15043 | What idea of use is it that flowers excite, the most beautiful part of the vegetable world? |
15043 | What if all he says of the state of this balance were true? |
15043 | What is it that can satisfy the furious and perturbed mind of this man? |
15043 | What light do we borrow from these boasted proportions, when we study ornamental design? |
15043 | What merchants? |
15043 | What other reason can he have for suggesting, that we are not happy enough to enjoy a sufficient number of voters in England? |
15043 | What proportion do we discover between the stalks and the leaves of flowers, or between the leaves and the pistils? |
15043 | What shall I do? |
15043 | What sort of a protection is this of the general right, that is maintained by infringing the rights of particulars? |
15043 | What sort of justice is this, which is enforced by breaches of its own laws? |
15043 | What strength of that kind did they acquire? |
15043 | When Sully came to those of France, in what order was any part of the financial system? |
15043 | Who ever doubted the truth, or the insignificance, of these propositions? |
15043 | Who ever said we_ ought_ to love a fine woman, or even any of these beautiful animals which please us? |
15043 | Why, what signifies a dispute about trifles? |
15043 | Will the author pledge himself, previously to his proposal of such a tax, to carry this enlargement of the Irish trade? |
15043 | Will this author say, that, in a war with Spain, such an assistance would not be of absolute necessity? |
15043 | Will you follow truth but to a certain point? |
15043 | Would not such a coincidence of interest and opinion be rather fortunate? |
15043 | [ 66] that they pay in France the_ Taille_, an arbitrary imposition on presumed property? |
15043 | _ Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?_ In vain they change from a single person to a few. |
15043 | _ Who hath loosed_( says he)_ the bands of the wild ass? |
15043 | and after all, what reflection is this on the natural good taste of the person here supposed? |
15043 | and that in France a heavy_ capitation- tax_ is also paid, from the highest to the very poorest sort of people? |
15043 | but will any one therefore call the elephant, the wolf, and the lion, beautiful animals? |
15043 | canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? |
15043 | did not the same objections always lie to custom- house entries? |
15043 | do they defalcate more from the entries of 1766 than from those of 1754? |
15043 | do we pay any_ taillage_, any_ faculty- tax_, any_ industry- tax?_ do we pay any_ capitation- tax_ whatsoever? |
15043 | do we pay any_ taillage_, any_ faculty- tax_, any_ industry- tax?_ do we pay any_ capitation- tax_ whatsoever? |
15043 | does he choose to flatter his readers that no such will ever return? |
15043 | how many discussions, parties, and passions, it will necessarily excite; and when you open it to inquiry in one part, where the inquiry will stop? |
15043 | if that too should fail us, what will become of this poor undone nation? |
15043 | is it from the course of exchange that it is unknown, which all the world knows to be greatly and perpetually against the colonies? |
15043 | is it from the doubtful nature of the trade we carry on with the colonies? |
15043 | is the American member the only one who is not to take a place, or the only one to be exempted from the ceremony of re- election? |
15043 | must it not go to the general service of the year, in some way or other, let the finances be in whose hands they will? |
15043 | or affirm that the cessation or the lessening of pleasure is always attended itself with a pleasure? |
15043 | or are the American representatives to be perpetual, and to feel neither demises of the crown, nor dissolutions of Parliament? |
15043 | or are they at all the proportions found in beautiful women? |
15043 | or does he in good earnest declare, that let the reason, or necessity, be what they will, he is resolved not to provide for such services? |
15043 | or does he show how they may be induced to submit to it quietly? |
15043 | or is the fit of the colic a pleasure or a pain just as we are pleased to consider it? |
15043 | or what system was there at all? |
15043 | or whilst he bountifully adds to their life, will he take from them their prerogative of dissolving Parliaments, in favor of the American union? |
15043 | that a great part of their foreign balance is and must be remitted to London? |
15043 | that a tax is laid in fact and name, on the same arbitrary standard, upon the acquisitions of their_ industry_? |
15043 | that it would not be the most gross of all follies to refuse it? |
15043 | those which the law had prescribed? |
15043 | to piece their conduct upon the broken chain of former measures? |
15043 | to take off a revenue so necessary to our being, before anything whatsoever was acquired in the place of it? |
15043 | were the navigation laws made, that this balance should be unknown? |
15043 | what do they prove? |
15043 | what does the author say? |
15043 | will he make a covenant with thee? |
15043 | will it not be the case under any administration? |
15043 | wilt thou take him for a servant forever? |
15043 | wilt thou trust him because his strength is great?--Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? |
4168 | The Duke of Albemarle answered the king( August 14th? |
4174 | And the Duke of York said further,"What said Marshal Turenne, when some in vanity said that the enemies were afraid, for they entrenched themselves? |
4169 | And what was that, but that our dirty Besse( meaning his Duchesse) should come to be Duchesse of Albemarle? |
4165 | But then I cried, what is become of my lobsters? |
4165 | should he not fight them? |
4172 | Is not this a high reason? |
41783 | And how is the ground all caved in about the castle? |
4167 | But why,say they,"would you say that without our leave, it being not true?" |
4167 | But the first he can not do, and the other as little, or says,"when we can get any, or what shall we do for it?" |
4167 | what can I do? |
4175 | says the Duchess,"what should he go for, if he were well, for there are no ships for him to command? |
39026 | And havna ye a letter for us? |
39026 | And it''s a good house my sister keeps whatever,she said; and then she wanted to know,"Had the wee laddie, Donald, ferried us over? |
39026 | And what''s yon bonny glen, my laddie? |
39026 | And will you accept a glass from me? |
39026 | And will you accept a glass from me? |
39026 | But why not let us discover unknown Holland? |
39026 | Can you go up by the hill? |
39026 | Canna ye stand on your head? |
39026 | How do you get there? |
39026 | Is n''t it bonny country? |
39026 | They are all landlords in the House of Commons: what will they do for us? |
39026 | What station? |
39026 | Where is the railway- station? |
39026 | Which is better? |
39026 | Which is shorter? |
39026 | Why canna ye put salt on their tails? |
39026 | Woo''s''e? |
39026 | --shaking his fist at them--"can''t any of you favor me with a shillin''? |
39026 | And then to Iona?" |
39026 | And then what does he do? |
39026 | And we had come from Salen, and were we going to Bunessan? |
39026 | And what do you think he answered? |
39026 | And what was his answer? |
39026 | And what were the Dhu Harteach men saying now? |
39026 | And with those who stayed at home, how fared it? |
39026 | At what hotel did you stay in Oban? |
39026 | But had we ever heard of Captain Shonstone, the hairbor- maister? |
39026 | But what is to be hoped for from Parliament? |
39026 | But what will grow there now? |
39026 | But who knows the injustice that has been done in Scotland in order to lay waste broad tracts of good ground? |
39026 | But who would exchange them for the well- polished granite obelisks of the modern stone- cutter which rise at their side? |
39026 | Did you come by Loch Maree? |
39026 | Free- trade is good for the bulk of the people, and what would protection do for the farmer? |
39026 | Here we were, safe in Iona, he said; why should we brave the dangers of the wild coast? |
39026 | How long have you been in Skye? |
39026 | If there had not been injustice before, is it probable that there would now be such wholesale reductions and cancellings? |
39026 | If they have food to eat, why complain of its quality? |
39026 | If they were happy, however, if moors and hills were green with their crops, would it still seem so dismal? |
39026 | Is Tartarin''s_ Chasse de Casquettes_ really so much funnier than what is called sport in England? |
39026 | Is this your first visit? |
39026 | It is their land; why should they not do with it as they think best? |
39026 | Not a bad beginning, is it? |
39026 | Pennell?" |
39026 | Some people said the country needed protection;"but, sir, what have we got to protect?" |
39026 | There were many hard things in this world, but grass was soft; why, then, should I choose the hard things? |
39026 | To a beggar by the way- side they gave witticisms with their pennies:"Canna ye sing a Gaelic song?" |
39026 | Was the gentleman we spoke of a farmer? |
39026 | What did it profit the crofters that Macleod became for their sake a bankrupt? |
39026 | Who will call them lazy or indifferent who has considered what the life of the Islander has been for generations? |
39026 | You do n''t want''em, gen''lemen? |
39026 | You''ll have one? |
40681 | ''Do n''t you remember?'' |
40681 | ''What,''I asked,''did the Cabinet at home say?'' |
40681 | But who can tell whether this is not a pretence and a deceit, and whether he may not all the time have a secret understanding with the''Times''? |
40681 | Où commence- t- elle? |
40681 | Raglan said,''But you forget the French: would you have us abandon them to their fate?'' |
40681 | The Emperor knows this, and knows what is thought of his ministers, but he says''What am I to do? |
40681 | The Government, he said, would not give way, and he was himself opposed to their doing so; but what was to be done? |
40681 | The Queen talked to Clarendon of the publication in the''Times''with much indignation, and said,''Whom am I to trust? |
40681 | What business had he to make such a mistake? |
40681 | Who would ever have thought that tidings of peace would produce a general sentiment of disappointment and dissatisfaction in this nation? |
40681 | Who would have thought a few weeks ago that the Queen''s Speech would announce the preliminaries of peace? |
40681 | Will his fortune be more prosperous than that of the other Royal and Imperial heirs to the throne whom similar salvoes have proclaimed? |
40681 | and should you be very much surprised if a year or two hence you should see us fighting against you again?'' |
40681 | and where can I find better men who will enter my service?'' |
40681 | où finit- elle? |
40681 | à quels signes visibles se distingue- t- elle des autres éléments de la société? |
4153 | Why, what, pox,says Sir Charles Sydly,"would he have him have more, or what is there more to be had of a woman than the possessing her?" |
4153 | He in distracted manner answered me--"Why, whither should I go? |
4153 | So to the office, where a great conflict with Wood and Castle about their New England masts? |
4155 | But strange to see how they held up their hands crying,"What shall we do?" |
4155 | How have you done all this week?" |
4155 | Says my Lord Treasurer,"Why, what means all this, Mr. Pepys? |
4155 | This is true, you say; but what would you have me to do? |
4155 | Why do our prizes come to nothing, that yielded so much heretofore?" |
4155 | Why will not people lend their money? |
4155 | Why will they not trust the King as well as Oliver? |
39104 | How could this be? |
39104 | Indeed,rejoined the Queen,"have any of the staff officers of my Life Guards got the consumption? |
39104 | What,asks the Colonel,"_ is_ a radical? |
39104 | Where was Arthur, Duke of Wellington, when those words were uttered? 39104 And how has the benefactor of a great and powerful nation been treated by the British Government? 39104 And must Ireland draw the sword, or submit? 39104 And shall we be told, as a requital, that we are estranged from the noble country for whose salvation our life- blood was poured out? |
39104 | And what did England gain by her armies and fleets, her intrigues in foreign cabinets and subsidies of men and money? |
39104 | And what is England''s remedial process for this disease in one of her members? |
39104 | Are you really prepared to determine, but not to hear, the mighty cause upon which a nation''s hopes and fears hang? |
39104 | Beware of her third coming; for the treasure you must have; and what price she may next demand, who shall tell? |
39104 | But, will Ireland ever obtain independence? |
39104 | Can we expect the leveled to do justice to the leveler? |
39104 | Did England ever relinquish her hold upon a rod of bog or an acre of sand, except at the point of the bayonet? |
39104 | Does any man go to a doctor, and ask for a cure that is not radical? |
39104 | He suddenly starts up,( who ever knew him to sit still five minutes?) |
39104 | How came this change to pass? |
39104 | If called to designate the most remarkable name which adorns its later annals, to whose would we so unhesitatingly point as to his? |
39104 | If she should, in that hour, smite her chains, would not the blow quicken the pulses of every free heart in the world? |
39104 | Is he not entitled to a place among the five most extraordinary men which that kingdom has produced-- Bacon, Shakspeare, Newton, Milton, Burke? |
39104 | Partakers in every peril, in the glory shall we not participate? |
39104 | Possessing peculiar powers of eloquence,( why may not a woman be an"orator?") |
39104 | Read his"Chartism,"his"Past and Present,"his article in a recent Spectator on"Ireland and Sir Robert Peel"--and what then? |
39104 | Suppose this worthy Christian philanthropist is rather fond of telling her auditors( and are they not fond of hearing?) |
39104 | Sydney Smith has aptly asked,"Why is the Church of England nothing but a collection of beggars and bishops? |
39104 | The stamp act? |
39104 | This debt may be repudiated; but can it ever be paid? |
39104 | Though this portraiture, sketched by no unfriendly hand, be but a rude outline, does it not shadow forth the original? |
39104 | What desperate valor climbed the steeps and filled the moats of Badajos? |
39104 | What, then, is the remedy for these evils? |
39104 | Who is to decide as to the possession of the"might?" |
39104 | Whose were the athletic arms that drove your bayonets at Vimiera through the phalanxes that never reeled in the shock of war before? |
39104 | Why are its darker colors no less faithful delineations of the prominent features than the brighter? |
39104 | Will Emmett''s epitaph ever be written? |
39104 | Will she ever become a nation? |
39104 | Will you make this the exception? |
39104 | could I love thee more deeply than now?" |
39104 | must she draw the sword_ and_ submit? |
39104 | the right reverend Dives in the palace, and Lazarus in orders at the gate, doctored by dogs and comforted by crumbs?" |
37059 | Did the three remaining letters,asks Whittaker,"lie still lower in the box, under the contracts and sonnets, and so escape the notice of the rebels? |
37059 | What friends? |
37059 | [ 211] The question to be decided is, whether these letters and writings are genuine, or whether they can be proved to be fabrications? 37059 [ 224] Was this all the proof that was offered? |
37059 | And under whose superintendence were these translations, into the Scottish and Latin, made? |
37059 | As they entered, he asked,"What they did out of their beds at that time of night?" |
37059 | Be this as it may, in what court of law or equity would such documents as these be admitted as evidence? |
37059 | Being satisfied upon these points, she proceeded to inquire when her execution was to take place? |
37059 | But could Mary herself, it will be asked, refuse to acknowledge her own hand? |
37059 | But if he acted upon this principle, why did he limit himself to a collection of eight letters? |
37059 | But not a voice was raised,--not a sword was drawn to protect her,--and what resource was left? |
37059 | But what is the fact? |
37059 | But why was he not brought forward and examined concerning the Letters; and why is there not a word about them in his confession? |
37059 | By what art, or superior penetration, was Mary to make a discovery which was baffling the whole of Scotland? |
37059 | Can it expose you to censure, to hear the complaints of the unfortunate? |
37059 | Could Mary ever suppose that the_ godly_ Earl of Murray would entertain a murderer at his table? |
37059 | How then could she have written him love- letters before this event? |
37059 | How then did she happen to wish to marry another? |
37059 | I asked her Grace, since the weather did cut off all exercise abroad, how she passed the time within? |
37059 | If he withdrew the bond, and refused to let me see it, what would be the presumption? |
37059 | If she openly and formally licensed her nobles to recommend him, what was the use of all her subsequent affected reluctance? |
37059 | In what condition, then, do we find these wonderful letters about which so much has been written? |
37059 | Is it too small a misfortune for me to lose my kingdom? |
37059 | Is this reasonable demand of Mary complied with? |
37059 | Must I, also, be robbed of my integrity and my reputation? |
37059 | The sentinels asked,--"If they knew what noise that was they had heard a short time before?" |
37059 | Was it Athol? |
37059 | Was it Bothwell? |
37059 | Was it Huntly? |
37059 | Was it, besides, enough to satisfy the nation to allude, in vague and general terms, to the existence of documents of so much weight? |
37059 | Was she now, without a struggle, to surrender the crown of the Stuarts into the hands of the bastard Murray, or the blood- stained Morton? |
37059 | Was this the moment at which he would be disposed to part with writings he had so carefully treasured? |
37059 | What follows? |
37059 | What jury would for a moment look at such letters? |
37059 | What, then, were the comments which he made on it at Westminster, and the conclusive presumptions against Mary which he drew from it? |
37059 | When was it, then, that these momentous letters were introduced to the world? |
37059 | Where then was she to look for the traitor who had raised his hand against her husband''s life and her own happiness? |
37059 | Where was the necessity for a precipitate marriage at all? |
37059 | Whom was she to suspect? |
37059 | Why should harsh enmity pursue me more? |
37059 | [ 101] Can any thing establish an historical fact more explicitly than such evidence? |
37059 | [ 129] Even though prepared to lay it down, was she also to countenance falsehood, and practise dissimulation? |
37059 | [ 221] Why was Dalgleish never mentioned as having any connection with the Letters at all till after he was dead? |
37059 | _ Fifth_, What was done with the letters immediately after Morton and the other Lords got possession of them? |
37059 | and where he was to have carried it? |
37059 | and why, moreover, should such a declaration have been thought necessary, either by Bothwell or his friends? |
37059 | answered Paris,"what more must I do this night? |

2439 | All over the county the peasants chanted a ballad of which the burden is still remembered:"And shall Trelawney die, and shall Trelawney die? |
2439 | And again"They talk of his hectoring and proud carriage; what could be more humble than for a man in his great post to cry and sob?" |
2439 | And how can your Majesty place any dependence on the answer of a culprit whose life is at stake? |
2439 | And how long was the anomalous government planned by the genius of Sancroft to last? |
2439 | And if he had, what was that to the Prince or to the States? |
2439 | And what had become of the party which had, during seven and forty years, been the bulwark of monarchy? |
2439 | And what hope would there be for Holland, drained of her troops and abandoned by her Stadtholder? |
2439 | And when the ill tidings came from Warminster, he again ejaculated,"Est- il- possible?" |
2439 | And who would undertake to draw the line between extreme cases and ordinary cases? |
2439 | And yet, when he set up his standard, what eminent Whig had joined it? |
2439 | But could the navy, could the army, be trusted? |
2439 | But could the resistance of Englishmen to such a prince as James be properly called rebellion? |
2439 | But he might perhaps be excused if he asked, What was the constitution to him? |
2439 | But how was this delivery to be proved? |
2439 | But if, as the Tories themselves now seemed to confess, that theory was unsound, why treat with the King? |
2439 | But was the paper thus published a false, malicious, and seditious libel? |
2439 | But what guarantee was there for the sincerity of the Court? |
2439 | But where could the King henceforth expect to find those sentiments in which consists the strength of states and of armies? |
2439 | But who could be trusted to manage the escape? |
2439 | But, had he consented, what guarantee could he give that he would adhere to his bargain? |
2439 | But, tyrannical and malignant as the mandate was, would the Anglican priesthood refuse to obey? |
2439 | Could Anne or Sancroft possibly have foreseen that the Queen''s calculations would turn out to be erroneous by a whole month? |
2439 | Could he yield to subjects whom he had menaced with raised voice and furious gestures? |
2439 | Could it then be doubted that, if the Churchmen would even now comply with his wishes, he would willingly sacrifice the Puritans? |
2439 | Could people be blamed for submitting to the invader when they saw their sovereign run away at the head of his army? |
2439 | Did ever a good Churchman question the dispensing power before? |
2439 | Did the whole duty of a good subject consist in using the word King? |
2439 | For what satisfactory guarantee could he give? |
2439 | Had he been acting against light and against the convictions of his conscience then? |
2439 | Had he not broken down every bridge by which he could, in case of a disaster, effect his retreat? |
2439 | Had he not given hostages to the royal cause? |
2439 | Had he not given the last proof of fidelity by renouncing his religion, and publicly joining a Church which the nation detested? |
2439 | Have not some of you preached for it and written for it? |
2439 | His first words were,"Well, and what do our friends at home say now?" |
2439 | How should you like that, gentlemen?" |
2439 | How then could the Princess of Orange be his heir? |
2439 | How was he to give to Caesar all that was Caesar''s, and yet to withhold from God no part of what was God''s? |
2439 | If any part of the royal forces resolutely withstood the invaders, would not that part soon have on its side the patriotic sympathy of millions? |
2439 | If any suitor ventured to ask any favour directly from the King, the answer was,"Have you spoken to my Lord President?" |
2439 | If he should resume his regal office, could they, on their principles, refuse to pay him obedience? |
2439 | If neither law nor honour could bind him, could he safely be permitted to return? |
2439 | Is my word not to be taken?" |
2439 | It was his habit, when any news was told him, to exclaim in French,"possible?" |
2439 | Or had he rescued her from one enemy only that she might be exposed to another? |
2439 | Or was he uttering a deliberate falsehood now? |
2439 | Or was it a disqualification that he was unalterably attached to the Church of England? |
2439 | Sharp?" |
2439 | Solicitor?" |
2439 | That beloved Church, too, for whose sake he had, after a painful struggle, broken through his allegiance to the throne, was she really in safety? |
2439 | To pass a resolution acknowledging him as King was therefore an act of election; and how could there be an election without a vacancy? |
2439 | To trust him would thenceforth be impossible; and, if his people could not trust him, what member of his Church could they trust? |
2439 | Was ever King so used? |
2439 | Was he a child, or an idiot, that others must think for him? |
2439 | Was he a petty prince, a Cardinal Furstemburg, who must fall if not upheld by a powerful patron? |
2439 | Was he to be degraded in the estimation of all Europe, by an ostentatious patronage which he had never asked? |
2439 | Was it fair to him to leave him in the dark till within thirty- six hours of the time fixed for the reading of the Declaration? |
2439 | Was it not mockery to call on a man thus plundered and oppressed to suffer martyrdom for the property and liberty of his plunderers and oppressors? |
2439 | Was it possible that nobody at Whitehall was aware of what was passing in England and on the Continent? |
2439 | Was it rebellion to defend those laws and that religion which every King of England bound himself by oath to maintain? |
2439 | Was the King bewitched? |
2439 | Was the boy likely to learn, under such tuition and in such a situation, respect for the institutions of his native land? |
2439 | Was there anything unreasonable in the apprehension that this force might be employed to do what the French dragoons had done? |
2439 | Was there then no remedy? |
2439 | Were his ministers blind? |
2439 | Were they his masters? |
2439 | Were they to sit in judgment on the conduct of foreign sovereigns? |
2439 | What Christian really gave his cloak to the thieves who had taken his coat away? |
2439 | What Christian really turned the left cheek to the ruffian who had smitten the right? |
2439 | What can you do to pleasure him as to that matter?" |
2439 | What casuist, what lawyer, has ever been able nicely to mark the limits of the right of selfdefence? |
2439 | What chance that he would even be able to escape condign punishment? |
2439 | What commission has he to be impudent here? |
2439 | What conceivable motive had Sunderland to wish for a revolution? |
2439 | What do you do here? |
2439 | What does he do without a keeper? |
2439 | What error have I committed?" |
2439 | What had he not to dread? |
2439 | What had he to hope from a change? |
2439 | What have apprehension and jealousy to do here? |
2439 | What is it made like?" |
2439 | What reason was there, then, to doubt that James waited only for an opportunity to follow the example? |
2439 | What security then could his word afford to sects divided from him by the recollection of a thousand inexpiable wounds inflicted and endured? |
2439 | What step was he next to take? |
2439 | What then was his conduct likely to be, if his subjects consented to free him, by a legislative act, from even the shadow of restraint? |
2439 | What was the value of privileges which must be held by a tenure at once so ignominious and so insecure? |
2439 | What, then, was the inevitable inference? |
2439 | Where were now those gallant gentlemen who had ever been ready to shed their blood for the crown? |
2439 | Where were those priests and prelates who had, from ten thousand pulpits, proclaimed the duty of obeying the anointed delegate of God? |
2439 | Where, he asked, was he to look for protection? |
2439 | While that war was raging in the British Isles, what might not Lewis attempt on the Continent? |
2439 | Who could say what effect such severity as Clarendon recommended might produce on the public mind of England? |
2439 | Who, then, was the next heir? |
2439 | Why could he not sit still as his betters, Sawyer, Pemberton, and Pollexfen had done? |
2439 | Why did you not obey the King?" |
2439 | Why not try the event of a battle? |
2439 | Why retreat from Salisbury? |
2439 | Why should not the purgation be common also? |
2439 | Why was no prelate of the Established Church in attendance? |
2439 | Why was not the Dutch Ambassador summoned? |
2439 | Why, in short, was there, in the long list of assistants, not a single name which commanded public confidence and respect? |
2439 | Would not the trainbands flock by thousands to the standard of the deliverer? |
2439 | Yet who could answer for the effect which the appearance of such an army might produce? |
2439 | Yet who would, on that account, interdict all selfdefence? |
2439 | [ 207] Who indeed could hope to stand where the Hydes had fallen? |
2439 | [ 345] But how was this plan to be carried into effect? |
2439 | [ 380] Was it a disqualification that he was the near kinsman of the Princesses of Orange and Denmark? |
2439 | said James,"is Est- il- possible gone too? |
2439 | said the dexterous diplomatist;"do you wish to get the King into your power?" |
2439 | where is he? |
4194 | Up, called up by drums and trumpets; these things and boxes[??] |
4194 | Up, called up by drums and trumpets; these things and boxes[??] |
4178 | Why,says H. Bellasses,"you will not hurt me coming out, will you?" |
4178 | It was pleasantly said by a man in this City, a stranger, to one that told him that the peace was concluded,"Well,"says he,"and have you a peace?" |
4178 | So out he went, and both drew: and H. Bellasses having drawn and flung away his scabbard, Tom Porter asked him whether he was ready? |
4178 | Tom Killigrew, being by, answered,"Sir,"says he,"pray which is the best for a man, to be a Tom Otter to his wife or to his mistress?" |
4178 | are they quarrelling, that they talk so high?" |
4178 | says he:"I would have you know that I never quarrel, but I strike; and take that as a rule of mine!"--"How?" |
35933 | ''Tis a miserable house,she answered,"damp and low; but what can we do? |
35933 | But where bide they, the sisters twain? 35933 Come to see what you can pick up, eh?" |
35933 | Did you do it for pleasure? |
35933 | For good people after all, what is a waterfall? 35933 How many sheep do you consider fair stock to the acre?" |
35933 | Mr. White, if you had wanted a wife, do you think you could choose one out of Swaledale? |
35933 | Pretty outlandish talk that, is n''t it? |
35933 | So, you do believe at last,I rejoined,"that scenery is worth looking at, as well as a horse?" |
35933 | There''s a vast of''em coom t''feast, is n''t there? |
35933 | What did he say to ye? |
35933 | What do they addle? |
35933 | What is Bradford famous for? |
35933 | What''s ta do? |
35933 | What''s the matter, Massey? |
35933 | Whence come ye, daughters? 35933 ''Wot''s ta do?'' 35933 A man who sat reading at his door near the farther end of the village looked up as I passed, and asked,Will ye have a drink o''porter?" |
35933 | And ever since he had been repeating to himself,"What do they addle?" |
35933 | And if ye come again will it be another guinea?" |
35933 | Are they edifying? |
35933 | Are they harmless? |
35933 | But whither? |
35933 | Can they who find satisfaction therein be led up to something better? |
35933 | Did not his tomb sweat blood on that famous day of Agincourt, and the rumour thereof bring Henry V. and his lovely Kate hither on a pilgrimage? |
35933 | Did the decrepit old shambles, roofed with paving- flags, still encumber the spacious market- place at Thirsk? |
35933 | Did their forefathers ever roar when Paulinus preached to them from a mossy rock, or under the shadow of a spreading oak? |
35933 | Do they supply a real want? |
35933 | For why? |
35933 | From what part of the country were they drifted to their present position? |
35933 | Hath God forgotten then the mean and small? |
35933 | Have the holy sisters fled? |
35933 | How shall one who has not spent years among them essay to reproduce the sounds? |
35933 | Is it that Quakerism has accomplished its work? |
35933 | Is not the southern landing place of the steam- ferry named New Holland? |
35933 | Much has been said and written concerning the high cost of travelling in England as compared with the Continent, but is it really so? |
35933 | Must I confess it? |
35933 | My ear caught at the sharp twang of the_ ar_--a Yorkshire man would have said Nunthurp-- and turning to the speaker I said,"Surely that''s Berkshire?" |
35933 | Seeing a factory on the outskirts of the town, he asked a girl,"What do they make in that factory?" |
35933 | Sheffield raised a regiment to march against the Sepoys; why not raise a company to put down its own pestiferous blacks? |
35933 | That''s where we live, is it-- down there, under all that smoke? |
35933 | The Island will continue to increase in extent and value as long as the same causes continue to operate; and who shall set limits to them? |
35933 | The old meeting- house, the school- room, and dwelling- house, remained; why should they not be restored to their original uses? |
35933 | The other, entitled_ Daniel the Prophet_, begins with:"Where are now the Hebrew children? |
35933 | There the base Cartismandua, betrayer of Caractacus, held her court? |
35933 | Thou hadst( and who had doubted thee?) |
35933 | Was York still famous for muffins, or Northallerton for quoits, cricket, and spell- and- nurr? |
35933 | Was it here, I wonder, that the Yorkshire boy lived who had a bull pup, in the training of which he took great delight? |
35933 | Was it not to St. John of Beverley that Athelstan owed the victory at Brunanburgh, which made him sole monarch of Northumbria? |
35933 | Was it not"about Wensleydale"that George Fox saw"a great people in white raiment by a river- side?" |
35933 | Were they inhabited when the Brigantes first mustered to repel the Romans? |
35933 | What d''ye come poakin yer noase thro''here for?" |
35933 | What is it to them that the mistress has to buckle- to, and be her own servant for a while, and see to the washing, and make the bread? |
35933 | What is it to them? |
35933 | What should they know about it? |
35933 | What would the Plantagenets say, could they come back to life, and see trade inhabiting palaces far more stately than those of kings? |
35933 | What would the devout monks say could they hear it? |
35933 | What''s the Bible? |
35933 | Where are now the Hebrew children? |

35933 | Whither went they? |
35933 | Would the sea be satisfied with that one mouthful? |
35933 | Yet might there not be caverns still more wonderful beyond? |
35933 | exclaimed one of the Yorkshiremen,"who''d ha''thought to see anything like this? |
35933 | is ye boun into Swawldawl?" |
35933 | or that it has been stifled by the assiduous painstaking to make itself very comfortable? |
35933 | packman, d''ye carry beuks?" |
35933 | that''s Maum Cove, is it?" |
35933 | where was I going? |
35933 | why should I sweat for nothin''? |
4162 | But, damn me,said Sir Philip,"will you so and so?" |
4162 | And to that; to have it said, what hath been done by our late fleetes? |
4162 | But strange to see how they held up their hands crying,"What shall we do?" |
4162 | How have you done all this week?" |
4162 | How he should go off then? |
4162 | Says my Lord Treasurer,"Why, what means all this, Mr. Pepys? |
4162 | This is true, you say; but what would you have me to do? |
4162 | Why do our prizes come to nothing, that yielded so much heretofore?" |
4162 | Why will not people lend their money? |
4162 | Why will they not trust the King as well as Oliver? |
42139 | Well, John, what''s the news? |
42139 | BASSENTHWAITE AND DERWENTWATER What was the great Parnassus''self to thee Mount Skiddaw? |
4185 | --"So,"says he,"if a rhodomontado will do any good, why do you not say 100 ships?" |
4185 | What is the matter if he be drunk, so when he comes to fight he do his work? |
4185 | Will all things be set right in the nation?" |
37374 | And then Mr. Speaker, pursuant to the said order, asked Mr. O''Connell whether he would take the said Oath of Supremacy? 37374 And do you attach in your mind no different meaning to the wordswear"than you would to the word"affirm?" |
37374 | And then Mr. Speaker, pursuant to the said order, asked Mr. O''Connell whether he would take the said Oath of Supremacy? |
37374 | Are members, whose conduct may be obnoxious, to vote my exclusion because to them my opinions are obnoxious? |
37374 | Are views on politics urged as a reason why a member should not sit here? |
37374 | Are you going to declare the seat vacant? |
37374 | Bradlaugh?" |
37374 | But does the House mean it is a party now? |
37374 | But is that a reason, that, because I stand alone the House are to do against me what they would not do if I had 100,000 men at my back? |
37374 | But it is said, why not have taken the oath quietly? |
37374 | But was the House a party when John Stuart Mill sat in this House? |
37374 | Did the House join in it? |
37374 | Did you believe these things, Sir, when they were stated and loudly cheered by those who sit around you on your side of the House? |
37374 | Do they mean to you:"May God desert and forsake me as I deserted and forsook the Queen''s supremacy, to which I so solemnly swore allegiance"? |
37374 | Do you do either? |
37374 | Do you mean that I am to go back to Northampton as to a court, to appeal against you? |
37374 | Do you mean that I can injure the dignity of this House? |
37374 | Do you tell me I am unfit to sit amongst you? |
37374 | Does the House mean that it is a party to each oath taken? |
37374 | Have you any objection to tell the Committee what those three words were?--The question put by Mr. Justice Brett was,"Why?" |
37374 | Have you any such fear? |
37374 | Have you no personal shame that you have broken your oath? |
37374 | How do you understand them of your broken oath? |
37374 | How is the dignity of this House to be hurt? |
37374 | How lately is it that you have claimed a right to affirm in a court of law?--In a superior court or in an inferior court? |
37374 | If I am not dangerous, why not let me speak there? |
37374 | If I did aught before that rendered me unworthy to sit here, why did the House let me sit here from the 2nd of July to the 29th of March? |
37374 | If it were true that I was kicked downstairs I would ask members of the House of Commons on whom the shame, on whom the disgrace, on whom the stigma? |
37374 | If opinions, why not conduct? |
37374 | If the House did not join in it, why did you cheer so that the words of the oath were drowned? |
37374 | If there is no danger, why disobey the law? |
37374 | If there is no danger, why strain the law? |
37374 | If what I did entitles the House not to receive me, why has not the House had the courage of its opinions and vacated the seat? |
37374 | Is it for a disqualification or ineligibility of like legal character arising since my election? |
37374 | Is it the oath alone which stirs you? |
37374 | Is it the oath and not the man? |
37374 | Is that not some proof that I have honor and conscience? |
37374 | Is there not some proof to the contrary in the fact that I did not go through the form, believing that there was another right open to me? |
37374 | It is not pretended that there has been a single circumstance of illegality connected with the election, the sole point being, Am I qualified to sit? |
37374 | My theology? |
37374 | None either in the rash taking or the wilful breaking? |
37374 | On the report of the committee as it stands, on the evidence before the House, what is the objection to either my affirming or taking the oath? |
37374 | Or do the pride and pomp of your ecclesiastical position outbribe your conscience? |
37374 | Politics? |
37374 | Possibly; but if it be so, is it against me rightly or wrongly? |
37374 | So help me, God?" |
37374 | Some gentlemen say"No,"but where is the challenge to stop? |
37374 | The question is, has my return on the 9th of April, 1881, anything whatever to impeach it? |
37374 | Then how? |
37374 | Then why not let me in? |
37374 | This House supreme among the assemblies of the world? |
37374 | This House which has stood unrivalled for centuries? |
37374 | This House, which represents the traditions of liberty? |
37374 | Was it a party the Session before last? |
37374 | Was it a party when Mr. Hall walked up to that table, cheered by members on the other side who knew his seat was won by deliberate bribery? |
37374 | Was the Archdeacon of Chichester ambitious of the Cardinal''s hat that he became so readily forsworn? |
37374 | Was the Rector of Lavington and Graffham covetous of an archbishopric that he broke his oath? |
37374 | Well, will this House repeat its vote of 9th May? |
37374 | What are you to do then? |
37374 | What do you send me back to Northampton to say? |
37374 | What has been alleged against me? |
37374 | What kind of a conflict is provoked here if this resolution be enforced? |
37374 | What then? |
37374 | What will you inquire into? |
37374 | Why not examine into members''conduct when they come to the table, and see if there be no members in whose way you can put a barrier? |
37374 | Will it have the courage of its opinions, and vacate my seat? |
37374 | Will it substitute force for law? |
37374 | Will you inquire into my conduct, or is it only my opinions you will try here? |
37374 | Will you send me back from here? |
37374 | or have you been personally conveniently absolved from the"eternal"consequences of your perjury? |
37374 | that I am to ask the constituency to array themselves against this House? |
41448 | But how often do we see the phrase:"The ridge was stormed, under heavy fire, by an English regiment?" |
41448 | Ca n''t you_ see that_?" |
41448 | Candid friends say, quite simply:"If you English ca n''t run Ireland yourselves, why not let the Irish have a try?" |
41448 | Did you ever know an American who had n''t got his pedigree worked out to three places of decimals? |
41448 | For goodness sake what more do you want?" |
41448 | In practice, what is he? |
41448 | Now why? |
41448 | So why advertise the fact unnecessarily? |
41448 | What is the attitude of Canada, Australasia, and South Africa to the mother country? |
41448 | Why make a cantata about it?" |
41448 | Yet how often is this fact so much as admitted by soulful exploiters of Erin''s wrongs in America or the Dominions? |
41074 | And what do you give me, O my father? |
41074 | But what can I do with five thousand pounds of silver, if I have neither lands nor a home? |
41074 | Troweth the protector,replies the queen,( heaven grant that he may prove a protector,)"that the king doth lack a playfellow? |
41074 | What are the boasted palaces of man, Imperial city or triumphal arch, To the strong oak, that gathers strength from time To grapple with the storm? 41074 Are the echoes still woke by the merry birds''song? 41074 But now far away from that sunny hill side,''Mid the stir and the din of the proud city''s throng, I think, is that tree standing yet in its pride? 41074 Can none be found to play with the king but only his brother, who hath no wish to play because of sickness? 41074 Did the rude dwellings of our remotest ancestors skirt the margin of the forest on the plain country? 41074 The desire of a kingdom knoweth no kindred; brothers have been brothers''bane, and may the nephews be sure of the uncle? 41074 Were the gentle undulations of hill and dale varied with palaces and forums? 41074 Were they the natives of the island, or were they Romans, Danes, or Saxons, Picts or Scots? 41074 What matter, if in hut or hall, Was spread o''er thee the funeral pall; If mutes and banners waited round, Or flowrets decked thy simple mound? 41074 What matter, if in queenly bower, Was past of life thy fitful hour? 41074 What people inhabited Britain when these things were being done? 41074 Where are they?--and the echo replied, Where are they? |
41074 | Where have ye gone, ye statesmen great, That have left your home so desolate? |
41074 | Where have ye vanished, king and peer, And left what ye liv''d for, lying here? |
41074 | Who can estimate correctly the majesty with which it is invested, or the grace and grandeur of its proportions, and its bulk? |
41074 | Why was not Bruce himself that leader? |
41074 | Why watch ye now? |
41074 | did the Roman dwell among them, or were they trod upon by the ruthless Dane, or the proud Norman, when the trees attained to their maturity? |
41074 | did their woad- dyed chieftains walk beneath the parent trees; or the Druid cut with his golden knife, the hallowed misletoe from their branches? |
41074 | hastily exclaimed the king,"Walter de Poix, do you think that I am one of those fools who give up their pleasure, or their business, for such matters? |
43096 | II Of Dublin itself, what shall be said? |
13943 | Again I ask, who is to be judge when the exigences of trade require it? |
13943 | And are you so in love with separation as not to be moved by this example? |
13943 | And has it been discovered at last that England has always been an enslaved country from top to toe? |
13943 | And in such a case whence is to come the money to pay them? |
13943 | And what may be the consequences of a neglect of such opportunities? |

13943 | and do you consider that event to be difficult and improbable? |
13943 | and, giving all his pity to the few, feel no compassion for the many, because they suffer in his eyes not individually but by millions? |
13943 | nonne Menalcan? |

39234 | ''Tis very bad, in man or woman, To steal a goose from off the common: But who shall plead that man''s excuse Who steals the common from the goose? |
39234 | ''Yes,''they said, as if astonished by the unwonted desire for such refreshment,''I_ could_ have a bed; and what would I like for dinner?'' 39234 And now,"said the stranger,"where''s a glass? |
39234 | Liphook? |
39234 | Well, where''s the glass? 39234 What tounge can speake y{e} Vertues of y{s} Creature? |
39234 | What, the gentleman who came down here with you? |
39234 | Why this ceremony? |
39234 | Yes, it was,I said;"but could he direct me to Liphook?" |
39234 | Yes,said Croker,"it is extremely handsome; but do n''t you think a facsimile of the Barberini vase would have been more appropriate to the place?" |
39234 | _ Ubi, ubi?_asks a cow of a lamb, which rejoins, bleating"_ In Bethlems_." |
39234 | ''What, ready for dressing?'' |
39234 | And now,''said he,''what''s to pay?'' |
39234 | And what was Byng''s crime, that his countrymen should have hated him with this ferocious ardour? |
39234 | Ar''n''t I right, sir?'' |
39234 | But how or why came so wealthy and well- considered a man as this respected Alderman of London City to be whipped as a rogue and vagabond? |
39234 | But( and can you wonder at it?) |
39234 | Did n''t you bring one?" |
39234 | Do you see that scar, sir? |
39234 | Do you want to catch flies? |
39234 | Does a friend come and add to the gross character of such a man the unknown trait of disgusting gluttony? |
39234 | How did it''riginate? |

39234 | Is there anything,"he asks,"under the sun that can satisfy a spirit made for God?" |
39234 | Next follows a duck, from whose bill issues another label, inscribed"_ Quando, quando?_"a query answered appropriately by a raven,"_ In hac nocte_." |
39234 | So imagine the"Rocket"( do you not perceive the subtle allusion to speed in that title?) |
39234 | That it was the work of smugglers none doubted: the only question was, in what manner had they spirited these two men away? |
39234 | The answer could only be,''Had we eyes?'' |

39234 | What was a poor Corinthian to do? |
39234 | What would we not give for a moment''s glimpse of"Point"( as Portsmouth folk call it, with a brevity born of every- day use) just a hundred years ago? |

39234 | cried the landlord, aghast,"what did he say?" |
39234 | he succeeds in putting up some sort of a building called a church, who else so eligible as incumbent? |
39234 | is that not a pretty testimony in favour of this stretch of road? |
39234 | or did you never see a chap half- seas- over before?'' |
39234 | where''s the gentleman?" |
39234 | who indeed? |
42495 | But the inconsistent story makes the Bailiff exclaim in anger:"Thou wretch, did I not tell thee not to touch that rick?" |

4171 | And what was that, but that our dirty Besse( meaning his Duchesse) should come to be Duchesse of Albemarle? |
4171 | But the first he can not do, and the other as little, or says,"when we can get any, or what shall we do for it?" |
4171 | But then I cried, what is become of my lobsters? |
4171 | The Duke of Albemarle answered the king( August 14th? |
4171 | should he not fight them? |
4171 | what can I do? |
4177 | And all our prizes who did swallow? |

42958 | Look,he said to me;"can there be any music in these hands?" |
42958 | Now, in all that long coastline what to write about? |
43488 | What more was needed for epitaph? |
21210 | And shall our tyrants safely reign On thrones built up of slaves and slain, And nought to us and ours remainBut chains and toil? |
21210 | And shall we bear and bend for ever, And shall no time our bondage sever And shall we kneel, but battle never,For our own soil? |
21210 | But, surely, that light can not come from our lamp, And that noise-- are they_ all_ getting drunk in the camp? |

21210 | For instance, who did not admire"The Memory of the Dead"? |

21210 | It is the cause of our unanimity; for where else has a party, so large as the Irish Repealers, worked without internal squabbles? |
21210 | It undoubtedly has some men of great ability and attainments, and some who have neither; but what can be done without funds, statues, or pictures? |

21210 | Shall they dig a grave for me, Under the green- wood tree? |
21210 | Shall they fling my corpse in the battle mound, Where coffinless thousands lie under the ground? |
21210 | Shall we get such a history? |

21210 | Where else are the towns ruined, trade banished, the till, and the workshop, and the stomach of the artisan empty? |
21210 | Where else in Europe is the peasant ragged, fed on roots, in a wigwam, without education? |

38749 | And then? |
38749 | Auguste? |
38749 | But could we see her go? |

38749 | But if Louise had not asked for our marriage certificate, could we insist upon her producing hers? |

38749 | Could he go? |
38749 | Did M. Auguste''s fate overtake him when they crossed the Channel? |
38749 | Did she ever leave London? |
38749 | Did she use the money to go back to Marseilles? |

38749 | Had she not said_ Madame_ was kind? |
38749 | He was a man like us, was n''t He? |
38749 | Her head was no better, and what was the hospital good for if they could n''t cure her? |
38749 | How could I see blood on the hands of the man who presided so joyously over my pots and pans? |
38749 | How could she forget us? |
38749 | How could we forget her? |
38749 | I complimented her on her fore- thought; but"What could I do?" |
38749 | I could not believe that she really did not know, and at last I asked her:--"I suppose you have heard, Trimmer, what has been going on these days?" |
38749 | I remember Harold Frederic seeing her once and, with the intuition of the novelist, placing her:"Who is your old Queen Victoria?" |
38749 | Nor would there be a penny over for the family mourning,--could I allow them, the chief mourners, to mourn without crape? |
38749 | On one of these occasions, a policeman materializing suddenly from nowhere and turning a bull''s- eye on him,--"Have you seen a cat about?" |
38749 | She giggled:"Would_ Madame_ look at her feet in_ Madame''s_ shoes? |
38749 | She had but arrived in London, she had never gone as_ bonne_ anywhere; how, then, could she give references? |
38749 | She had never done any harm to any one: why should she have to suffer? |
38749 | She needed the work and was willing to do it: was not that sufficient? |
38749 | Then he added:"You have seen dozens of children go up to the Dramatist''s room, have n''t you?" |
38749 | We have told her many stories,--_et des histoires un tout petit peu salées, n''est- ce pas? |
38749 | Were the Soho lodgings the scene of some tremendous_ crime passionel_? |
38749 | What Trimmer did, when she came home ten minutes later and I told her,"There''s a burglar in the box- room,"was to say,"Oh, is there, mum? |
38749 | What became of her, who can say? |
38749 | What could be simpler? |
38749 | What could she do but go and look after them when he asked her? |

38749 | Why, indeed? |
38749 | Why, she moaned, should this sorrow come to her? |

33107 | Are there any certain limits, in fact or theory, to inform you at what point you must stop-- at what point the mortification ends? |

33107 | But could Francis have forged the hand of Junius? |
33107 | But how shall it be obtained? |
33107 | But if you say you can still pass the violations over, then I ask, hath your house been burnt? |
33107 | But in order not to be too hasty we ought to ask: Is there not_ one_ fact in the whole life and character of Mr. Paine incompatible with Junius? |
33107 | But what will all their efforts avail? |
33107 | But where is John Adams, who said that Jefferson had stolen his ideas from him to put into the Declaration of Independence? |
33107 | But where is the man who has on hand the_ business of a world_? |
33107 | But who shall now take it to France, and in person represent the situation and demand assistance, as set forth in this letter? |
33107 | But why this subterfuge, if Mr. Paine was not Junius, and he had not yet a work to perform in England? |
33107 | Can the great life to come rest on nothing? |
33107 | Can ye give to prostitution its former innocence? |
33107 | Did Junius write falsely when he said:"This edition contains_ all_ the letters of Junius?" |
33107 | Did Mr. Jefferson study this production of Thomas Paine''s so closely as to get the_ exact order_, without transposing an article? |
33107 | Do you ask how I know this? |
33107 | Does he go there to satisfy his taste for learning, or to get rich? |
33107 | Hath your property been destroyed before your face? |
33107 | Have they firmness enough to meet the fury of a venal House of Commons? |
33107 | Have they fortitude enough not to shrink at imprisonment? |
33107 | Have they spirit enough to hazard their_ lives and fortunes_ in a_ contest_, if it should be necessary, with a prostituted legislature? |
33107 | Have you lost a parent or a child by their hands, and yourself the ruined and wretched survivor? |
33107 | How many more may have to go the same way? |
33107 | How, then, was the exact order followed, in writing the Declaration, which Mr. Paine laid down in Common Sense? |
33107 | I am now prepared to ask: What, then, was the object of Junius? |
33107 | I do not ask whether this is Christianity or morality, I ask whether it is decency? |
33107 | I therefore ask: Who was Junius? |
33107 | If not Junius, what is the meaning of it? |
33107 | If the majority can disfranchise ten boroughs, why not twenty-- why not the whole kingdom? |
33107 | In short, Jefferson was peculiarly attached to the Scotch, and why? |
33107 | Is there no child of America among all the sons of Freedom equal to the task? |
33107 | Is there no merit in dedicating my life to the information of my fellow- subjects? |
33107 | Is this the law of Parliament, or is it not? |
33107 | May there not be many more such cases? |
33107 | More than once my pen has refused to set about this work, but I now ask: Who wrote the original Declaration of Independence? |
33107 | Mr. Paine asked, in the last sentence quoted above in the parallel column:"Why is the constitution of England sickly?" |
33107 | Now, is the positive evidence of the_ genuine_ Letters to be set aside by this fugitive note and letter of_ Scotus_? |
33107 | Paine exclaims:"Why is man afraid to think?" |
33107 | Query: Can a person forget about something which never was? |
33107 | Query: Did not the experts depend largely on the manuscript of this spurious Scotch epistle to make out a case of identity in handwriting? |
33107 | The President inquired of him,"Did you write this piece?" |
33107 | They both declare_ Law to be king_:_ Paine._"But where, say some, is the king of America? |
33107 | Thus also Junius:"Is there no merit in dedicating my life to the information of my fellow- subjects? |
33107 | To bring the matter to one point, is the power who is jealous of our prosperity a proper power to govern us? |
33107 | To this end I subjoin Lord Macaulay''s five reasons why Sir Philip Francis was Junius:"Was he the author of the Letters of Junius? |
33107 | To what_ Cause_ has he"_ dedicated his life_"? |
33107 | Was he a man of fortune or of humble means? |
33107 | Was he a peer, or the leader of a party or faction, or was he one of the common people? |
33107 | Was he too_ modest_ to affirm it till he had got into his dotage? |
33107 | We acknowledge the piety of St. James'', but what has become of its morality?" |
33107 | We are already greater than the king wishes us to be, and will he not hereafter endeavor to make us less? |
33107 | Were he a member of this House, what might not be expected from his knowledge, his firmness, and integrity? |
33107 | What could be more like Junius than this? |
33107 | What does he mean by"The_ Cause_ and the_ People_"? |
33107 | What must be the result of this religion? |
33107 | What public question have I declined? |
33107 | What shall now be done? |
33107 | What though he riots in the plunder of the army, and has only determined to be a patriot when he could not be a peer? |
33107 | What villain have I spared? |
33107 | What was the position of Junius in society? |
33107 | What, then, was he? |
33107 | When all others fail, both in council and in war, who shall be able to cheer the heart and lift up the head of the nation? |
33107 | When will the humility of this country end? |

2643 | BULL.--What could you answer to this? |

2643 | DIEGO.--Pray tell me how you came to employ this Sir Roger in your affairs, and not think of your old friend Diego? |
2643 | DON DIEGO.--Consider, then, who is your best friend: he that would have brought him to condign punishment, or he that has saved him? |

2643 | Dost think that John Bull will be tried by piepowders? |

2643 | How did my guardians mistake my genius in placing me, like a mean slave, behind a counter? |
2643 | How didst thou describe their intrepid march up Holborn Hill? |
2643 | How didst thou move our terror and our pity with thy passionate scenes between Jack Catch and the heroes of the Old Bailey? |
2643 | How do I lament thy downfall? |
2643 | How do you mean, says John, by personal reflections? |
2643 | How goes affairs, Andrew? |
2643 | How is it possible for a man of business to keep his affairs even in the world at this rate? |
2643 | How will the noble arts of John Overton''s** painting and sculpture now languish? |

2643 | Is it possible that good man, Sir Roger, can have so much pity upon an unfortunate scoundrel that has persecuted him so many years? |
2643 | Is that thy conscience, John? |
2643 | Is there never an old pope or pretender to hang up in my stead? |
2643 | JACK.--Are you sure he is in the next room? |
2643 | JACK.--But what if Sir Roger should not come; will my friends be there to succour me? |
2643 | JACK.--How d''ye mean, make as if I hanged myself? |
2643 | JACK.--May I presume to ask who it is that is entrusted with so important an office? |
2643 | JACK.--Mayn''t I quilt my rope? |
2643 | JACK.--That''s true; but what if I should do it in effigies? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--"If thou wilt not let me have them, wilt thou take them thyself?" |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--"Shall I leave all this matter to thy management, Nic., and go about my business?" |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--"Shall I serve Philip Baboon with broadcloth, and accept of the composition that he offers, with the liberty of his parks and fishponds?" |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--And this is your sorites, you say? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--Are you glad to see your master in Ecclesdown Castle? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--B''ye, b''ye, Nic,; not one poor smile at parting? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--But tell me, old boy, hast thou laid aside all thy equivocals and mentals in this case? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--During this general cessation of talk, what if you and I, Nic., should inquire how money matters stand between us? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--Every single stone of Ecclesdown Castle, to my own self, speedily? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--Every wall, gate, room, and inch of Ecclesdown Castle, you say? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--Extremely glad? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--I shall have it to my own self? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--What then? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--What''s the matter now? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--Who could help it? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--Who told you that Sir Roger has done so? |
2643 | JOHN BULL.--Wilt thou purchase it, Nic.? |
2643 | LEWIS BABOON.--How could Monsieur Bull be so grossly abused by downright nonsense? |
2643 | LEWIS BABOON.--When you please; what needs more words? |
2643 | Let me ask thee one question more; what hast thou to do to meddle with the affairs of my family? |
2643 | More money for more law was plain to a demonstration, for who can go to law without money? |
2643 | Nic., who wouldst thou have to be Lord Strutt? |
2643 | One tells me that I must carry on my suit, because Lewis is poor; another, because he is still too rich: whom shall I believe? |
2643 | SIR ROGER.--Who''s hanged? |
2643 | The only question, then, that remains to be decided is: who shall stand the expenses of the suit? |
2643 | The third was as evident as the other two; for what composition could be made with a rogue that never kept a word he said? |
2643 | Then Jack''s friends began to hunch and push one another:"Why do n''t you go and cut the poor fellow down?" |
2643 | Then he broke out into a violent passion:"What, I not fit for a lawyer? |
2643 | To which the answer is as plain: who but he that is to have the advantage of the sentence? |
2643 | Was not I your old friend and relation? |
2643 | Well, tota pecunia let it be, for at present I have none at all; he would not have me purchase with other people''s money, sure? |
2643 | What art thou asking of them after all? |
2643 | What have I to do with such fellows? |
2643 | What houndsfoot is it that puts these whims in thy head? |
2643 | What if I should be cut down, as my friends tell me? |
2643 | What if we should have a match at football? |
2643 | What in the name of wonder, are you going about, jumping over my master''s hedges, and running your lines cross his grounds? |
2643 | What is the meaning of all this? |
2643 | What is twenty- two poor years towards the finishing a lawsuit? |
2643 | What occasion hast thou to give up Ecclesdown Castle to John Bull? |
2643 | What shall become of those poor creatures? |
2643 | What shouldst thou think to find old Lewis turned out of his paternal estates and mansion- house of Claypool? |
2643 | What signifies this hundred pounds? |
2643 | What will you give me for this beast? |
2643 | What''s your cause to me when I am hanged? |
2643 | When Esquire South has got possession of his title and honour is not John Bull to be his clothier? |
2643 | When dost thou intend to go to Claypool, Nic.? |
2643 | Where d''ye think they found him at last? |
2643 | Where''s Dick the butler?" |
2643 | Where''s my son John? |
2643 | Who, then, but John ought to put in possession? |
2643 | Why hast thou changed thy attorney? |
2643 | Why must the burden be taken off Frog''s back and laid upon my shoulders? |
2643 | Why wouldst thou not take it when it was offered thee some years ago? |
2643 | Will peace bring such plenty that no gentleman will have occasion to go upon the highway, or break into a house? |
2643 | Will there be never a dying speech of a traitor? |
2643 | Will they accept of a fine, or be satisfied with the pillory and imprisonment, a good round whipping, or burning in the cheek?" |
2643 | Wilt thou buy there some high heads of the newest cut for my daughters? |
2643 | Would you have been contented to have been so used yourself? |
2643 | Would you rather accept this scandalous composition, and trust that old rogue, Lewis Baboon? |
2643 | Wouldst thou have Philip Baboon?" |
2643 | covered in my presence? |
2643 | did I ever imagine I should become thy votary, in so pregnant an instance? |
2643 | had not given them some intoxicating potion, or if old Mother Jenisa was still alive? |
2643 | hast thou ever found us false to thee? |
2643 | they that advised you to refuse, must have believed I intended to give, else why would they not make the experiment? |
2643 | to dispose of my estate, old boy? |
2643 | what a devil''s the meaning of all these trangrams and gimcracks, gentlemen? |
2643 | what am I come to, to be affronted so by my tradesmen? |
2643 | what are thou come to at last? |

28546 | And besides, was not the Pope able to do away with the obligation of which he disapproved? |
28546 | And could the policy of James ever have prevailed? |
28546 | And how could Somerset''s plans and enterprises fail to meet with resistance in England itself? |
28546 | And how if the Queen of Scots, when recognised as heir to England, afterwards gave her hand to a Catholic prince hostile to Elizabeth? |
28546 | And how would it be, if a son sprung from the marriage, to inherit both the French and the English throne? |
28546 | And must not satisfaction be given to the Association which was pledged to pursue a new attempt against the Queen''s life even to death? |
28546 | And that too at a moment when the opposition of factions was constantly becoming more active? |
28546 | And was she not a Queen, raised above the law? |
28546 | And yet how can we help recognising manifold coincidences with that conflict of opinions and tendencies in which we are involved at the present day? |
28546 | But had she not herself uttered the decisive word? |
28546 | But how could such comprehensive concessions be expected from the proud Queen? |
28546 | But how then if the same fate befell him? |
28546 | But in all this did King James fall in with the spirit of the English constitution? |
28546 | But must not some means be also thought of, to prevent similar acts of violence for the future? |
28546 | But now how if this were dissolved? |
28546 | But on the other side, was he to return without fulfilling his purpose, and to burden himself with the reproach of not having told the truth? |
28546 | But on whose side would Spain then be found? |
28546 | But to whom could they apply for it if not to their neighbour, just now rising in power, Elizabeth Queen of England? |
28546 | But was it possible for the Roman court to yield in this and to revoke a dispensation, which involved the very substance of its spiritual omnipotence? |

28546 | But was the man a traitor, who had recommended a policy to which they had been forced to have recourse after such repeated efforts? |
28546 | But were they quietly to acquiesce in their fate? |
28546 | But what a contradiction was involved in the ascendancy which these ideas obtained? |
28546 | But what means did he possess of bestowing help either on the former or on the latter? |
28546 | But what was his decision to be? |
28546 | But what would then have become of the grant of money, which was every day more urgently needed? |
28546 | But where were they to effect a junction with each other and with the Spaniards? |
28546 | But who could advise her to begin her government with a civil war? |
28546 | But would he ever have proceeded to action? |
28546 | But would he, a boy of eleven, be able to take the helm of the proud ship? |
28546 | But, it may be said, was not the Queen in collusion with him? |
28546 | Can the date be right? |
28546 | Could it be the mission of the English to help in consolidating it in his hands? |
28546 | Could men feel astonished that the Danish war was not carried on with the energy which the cause seemed to demand? |
28546 | Could she fail to remark the agitation as to her successor, which occupied all men''s minds, while the reins were slipping from her hands? |
28546 | Did he not know, she asked, that the religion of the rebels was only a cloak for treason? |
28546 | Did he not rather at this point intrude into it the sharpness of his Scottish prejudices? |
28546 | Did he then really, as was imputed to him, try to gain a party among the clergy, and move the Pope to pronounce excommunication against the King? |
28546 | Even among the dependents of the royal house many almost gave up the Prince as lost; for who, they said, could trust the word of the Spaniards? |
28546 | For how could anything else be expected but that the judicial proceedings prepared several years before would now be put in force? |
28546 | For how could he delude himself with the hope that a transitory alliance would prevail over a dynastic antipathy? |
28546 | For how could they let the King of England share in Juana''s immense claims of inheritance? |
28546 | For what could follow from it but open war between the King of England and the Emperor? |
28546 | For why should he be refused what had been secured to his predecessors during a century and a half? |
28546 | Had he deserved his fate at her hands? |
28546 | Had the Pope the right to dispense with the laws of Scripture or had he not? |
28546 | How could her counsellors, who always preferred direct negociation with Spain, have accepted them? |
28546 | How could men have helped thinking that King James would resolutely take the inheritance of his grandsons under his protection? |
28546 | How could the rise of popular elements fail to call forth a kindred effort also among the lower classes? |
28546 | How could they ever become fused into one nation if the one was always plotting the destruction of the other? |
28546 | How could they fail, with some effort, in occupying the Isthmus of Panama? |
28546 | How could they make laws who were themselves beyond the pale of law? |
28546 | How should one power really seek the permanent advantage of another? |
28546 | How were they to accept its resolutions? |
28546 | If he accepted the petition of the Commons, did he surrender for ever the right of ordering imprisonment without assigning a cause? |
28546 | It may be that her grief was lightened by a secret satisfaction: who would absolutely deny it? |
28546 | It was reported that Innocent IV was heard to say,''Is not the King of England my vassal, my servant? |
28546 | Might he not annul unjust sentences of excommunication? |
28546 | Might not the King, as a religious and pious magistrate, have the power of summoning General Assemblies? |
28546 | On the contrary he had additional revenues from Scotland; for what reason did he require extraordinary subsidies? |
28546 | Or could any one, they asked, grant what he did not possess? |
28546 | So it stands written in her letters: it is undeniable: but was that really her last and well- considered word? |
28546 | The Queen inquires for instance, What is friendship? |
28546 | The answer of the Spaniards was evasive: how could it have been otherwise? |
28546 | They argued that their government did not allow this even to all its own subjects; how then could foreigners be admitted to a share in it? |
28546 | This time too Elizabeth dismissed the hostile ambassador; but how could she flatter herself with having thus exorcised the threatening elements? |
28546 | To the peaceful Provincials, if they could indeed gird on the sword, or to the old companions in arms of the Romans? |
28546 | Was Elizabeth to join Mary in combating them? |
28546 | Was he to accept the proposal of the Commons, and to content himself with a general reservation of his prerogative? |
28546 | Was he to allow it to be again endangered by the ceaseless ebb and flow of popular opinion? |
28546 | Was it from weakness and connivance, or was it from policy? |
28546 | Was it not in its own nature already a failure? |
28546 | Was it not to be expected that demands should call forth counter- demands? |
28546 | Was it to be dropped in England alone? |
28546 | Was not her legitimacy dependent on the invalidity of her father''s marriage with his brother''s widow? |
28546 | Was not this altogether contrary to the form of government of the country? |
28546 | Was there really any foundation for what men then said, that the King thought it better that his foe should be in the country rather than out of it? |
28546 | Was what had been always held for heresy no longer to merit this name because it was avowed by the ruling powers? |
28546 | Were the Catholic- Spanish tendencies of Elizabeth''s predecessor, Queen Mary Tudor, so completely reproduced in her? |
28546 | Were the men equal to the emergency, or were not circumstances stronger than they? |
28546 | Were they now to submit themselves to a King who like her was a schismatic? |
28546 | Were they, like the laity, virtually to recognise him as their Head? |
28546 | What could the Emperor do with an English minister who was not in a condition to support warlike enterprises properly? |
28546 | What importance could be attached to such an insignificant sum in prospect of so tremendous an undertaking as a war against Spain? |
28546 | What might have come of it, if a prince of this house should now obtain rule over a part of the island itself? |
28546 | What was likely to happen if they opposed the forces which Ralegh landed to search for the gold mines which he had formerly seen there? |
28546 | What was the reason of this? |
28546 | What would happen if France lent her aid in such an enterprise? |
28546 | What would there have been at all to fear at other times from a princess under strong custody and cut off from all the world? |
28546 | When now the Roman rule over the island and the surrounding seas came to an end, to whom could it pass? |
28546 | While preparing to attack the Emperor and the League did he intend to do anything more than make a demonstration against Spain? |
28546 | Who could avoid seeing its decisive significance for the age? |
28546 | Who could cleanse them from the stain that clove to them? |
28546 | Who could have said, so long as things remained in the path thus once entered upon, whither this would lead? |
28546 | Who does not know the sonnets and the love- intoxicated letters she is believed to have addressed to him? |
28546 | Who does not, in reading this, feel himself in a sphere of wild romance? |
28546 | Who will hold women of this character strictly to what stands in their letters? |
28546 | Who would not have been sensible of this? |
28546 | Who would not have felt himself distressed and threatened? |
28546 | Who would take it on himself to attack her? |
28546 | Why should it not be possible for something similar to happen in England also? |
28546 | Would he trust men who had so often betrayed him? |
28546 | Would not the Queen''s chapel, they asked, now serve to unite the Catholics of England; or would they be forbidden to hear mass there? |
28546 | Would not the nobles, some from reverence for the supreme Pontiff''s authority, others from a sense of religious obligation, yield to this alliance? |
28546 | Would that power pledge itself to fight to the end against every one, even against the Emperor, in behalf of the treaty when concluded? |
28546 | [ 157] And if the affair had been undertaken in this manner, who could say that it might not have succeeded? |
28546 | [ 192] How then if a defeat was sustained in the open field? |
28546 | [ 430] And how was even as much as this to be obtained from the court of Vienna? |
28546 | [ 478] His opponents thought that he was at the root of all previous misfortunes; and what might they not still expect from him? |
28546 | [ 485] And who shall say that success would have been impossible? |
28546 | [ 494] But must it not have been irritating to Parliament that the very men were promoted about whom it had complained? |
28546 | was England to be ruled by a viceroy? |
28546 | what could the English do with an ally who appropriated to himself exclusively the advantages of the victory they had won? |

21091 But who, he might have asked, are those two gentlemen listening so intently? 21091 CHAPTER VII CLOSE OF APPRENTICESHIP(_ 1839- 1841_) What are great gifts but the correlative of great work? 21091 Can I, with this persuasion engrossing me, be justified in inactivity? 21091 Can_ he_ give it a conscience? 21091 Canning?'' 21091 Could not one of them carry the prize of the premiership into the Lords, and leave to the other the consolation stake of leadership in the Commons? 21091 DID THE CABINET DRIFT? 21091 Did the demands of the parliament or the insolence of their language show it?'' 21091 Did the return of these members with a triumphant mob accompanying them indicate terror? 21091 Did they intend to hold and to act together? 21091 Did they systematically communicate? 21091 Do great things become to great men from the force of habit, what their ordinary cares are to ordinary persons?'' 21091 Do n''t you think the time has come when you might deign to be magnanimous? 21091 Does Mr. Thomson mean to say that the great conservative body in parliament has offered opposition to that measure? 21091 Does Mr. Thomson presume to state that Lord Aberdeen was guilty of neglect to the slaves? 21091 Fortunà ¦ lusus habemur? 21091 From these few facts do we not draw a train of reflections awfully important in their nature and extremely powerful in their impression on the mind?'' 21091 Had he Imagination? 21091 He added,''I think Sidney said more last night than he intended, did he not?'' 21091 He asked: How could he bring himself to fight for the Turks? 21091 He asks,''What is the answer to this? 21091 He quoted his sonnet on the contested election[ what sonnet is this? 21091 He should try me in opposition to Lord Stanley, and did Lord Stanley complain? 21091 His illustrious leader Peel, he said, did indeed look for his revenge; but for what revenge did he look? 21091 How are we to seek an answer to the same question in the history of Mr. Gladstone? 21091 How can I most surely floor him?'' 21091 How could I, under these circumstances, say, I will have nothing to do with you, and be the one remaining Ishmael in the House of Commons? 21091 How could the country go on with a democratic civil service by the side of an aristocratic legislature? 21091 How do you do? 21091 How much were the bills of the chancellor whom this figure shocks? 21091 How then could Aberdeen expect that Mr. Gladstone should abandon the set and avowed purpose with which he had come flaming and resolved to England? 21091 How was Lady Glynne''s jointure( £2500) to be paid? 21091 How was Sir Stephen to be supported? 21091 I answered,''You mean as to one particular expression or sentence?'' 21091 I do not think that you would be very sorrowful? 21091 I have been growing, that is certain; in good or evil? 21091 I inquired( 1) whether Derby mentioned Graham? 21091 I said to him,''Is that possible? 21091 I said,''Are you not building houses of cards? 21091 I simply made my acknowledgments in terms of the common kind, upon which he went on to ask me what in my view was to happen next? 21091 If he gave credit to Mr. Gladstone for being sincere in 1841, 1842, and 1846, why should not Mr. Gladstone give the same credit to him? 21091 In face of pleas so wretched for a prolongation of a war to which he had assented on other grounds, was he bound to silence? 21091 In what way can the first resignation be justified on grounds which do not require a second?'' 21091 Is he to impose his own conscience on the state? 21091 Is it morally just or politically expedient to keep down the industry and genius of the artisan, to blast his rising hopes, to quell his spirit? 21091 Is it necessary to consider now?'' 21091 Is the rule one and the same for individual and for state? 21091 Is this the scene, or were these the men, for the triumphs of the barren rhetorician and the sophist, whose words have no true relation to the facts? 21091 Jamne joci lususque sonant? 21091 Lord Stanley said to Peel,It is twelve, shall I follow him? |
21091 | Lumen ut insolitâ triste tumescat aquâ? |
21091 | MR. GLADSTONE AND HIS GROUP Connected with all this arose a geographical question-- in what quarter of the House were the Peelites to sit? |
21091 | Mais pourquoi faire des lois pires que les moeurs? |
21091 | May not this after all be found to be the case in the House of Commons as well as in many constituencies?... |
21091 | May not this be another legitimate and measured step in the same direction? |
21091 | Might I trust to your kindness to have some cards put in the place for us before prayers?'' |
21091 | Mr. Gladstone, being about to reply in debate, turned to his chief and said:''Shall I be short and concise?'' |
21091 | Now it struck me to inquire of myself, does the duke know the feelings I happen to entertain towards Mr. Canning? |
21091 | On the former day he said,''Is there anyone else to invite?'' |
21091 | One man said to me,''What, vote for Lord Norreys? |
21091 | Or can we accurately describe him as having in any department of life, thought, knowledge, feeling, been precocious? |
21091 | Shall I ever dare to make out a counterpart? |
21091 | Singula prà ¦ teriens det rapiatve dies? |
21091 | Sir, do we not all know that the king at that time had neither friends nor wealth?... |
21091 | So long the church will need parliamentary defence, but in what form? |
21091 | The Peelite leaders therefore had no other choice than to take their seats below the gangway, but on which side? |
21091 | The debater does not ask,''Is this true?'' |
21091 | The man looked hard at me and said these very words,''Damn all foreign countries, what has old England to do with foreign countries?'' |
21091 | The man who listening to his adversary asks of his contention,''Is this true?'' |
21091 | Then by what argument can they repel, by what pretence can they evade the duty?'' |
21091 | Then he said,''Well, I think our friend Peel went rather far last night about Cobden, did he not?'' |
21091 | Then it is asked, Is he honest? |
21091 | This is a most serious event, and at once raises the question, Are we to go into it? |
21091 | This was not enough to outnumber the phalanx of their various opponents combined, but was it possible that the phalanx should combine? |
21091 | Upon looking back I am sorry to think how much I partook in the excitement that prevailed; but how could it be otherwise in so extraordinary a case? |
21091 | Was I right?... |
21091 | Was Mr. Gladstone right in his early notion of himself as a slow moving mind? |
21091 | Was the Aberdeen cabinet without Lord Aberdeen one in which I could place confidence? |
21091 | Was the church a purely human creation, changing with time and circumstance, like all the other creations of the heart and brain and will of man? |
21091 | Was there no difference between a protector and a sovereign? |
21091 | We may often ask for ourselves and others: How many of a man''s days does he really live? |
21091 | Were they a party? |
21091 | Were they not celebrating the obsequies of an obnoxious policy? |
21091 | What is the church of England? |
21091 | What matters it? |
21091 | What was a protectorate, and what the rights of the protector? |
21091 | What was the footing on which patron and member were to stand? |
21091 | What was the nature of his relations with other members of the Peel government who had also been in the cabinet of Lord Aberdeen? |
21091 | What would this atrocious ministry have said had the appeal to the voice of the people, which they now quote as their authority, been made in 1829? |
21091 | What, they cried, did the treaty of 1815 mean by describing the Ionian state as free and independent? |
21091 | Whatever your present intentions may be, can it be done?'' |
21091 | When shall I see his like? |
21091 | When shall we learn wisdom? |
21091 | Where could general mental strength be better tested? |
21091 | Where was the official or appointed teacher all this time? |
21091 | Who could deny that these were changes of magnitude settled in peaceful times by a parliament unreformed? |
21091 | Who, I would ask, conducted the correspondence of the government office with reference to that important question? |
21091 | Why did we go out? |
21091 | Why do you return me to parliament? |
21091 | Why not call things by their right names? |
21091 | Why should he, then, refuse a position that Fox had accepted? |
21091 | Why then, cried the_ Times_, does he omit all comment on the church which is the main and direct agent in this atrocious instruction? |
21091 | Why was it more of a usurpation for the pope to make a new Archbishop of Westminster, than to administer London by the old form of vicars apostolic? |
21091 | Will he ever be the bearer of evil thoughts to any mind? |
21091 | Will you forgive me if I write to you on this matter? |
21091 | Will you unite yourself with what must be, from the beginning, an inevitable failure? |
21091 | Would it be true to say that, compared with Pitt, for instance, he ripened slowly? |
21091 | Would not this tend to abridge the member''s independence? |
21091 | Would the success of Russian designs at that day mean anything better than the transfer of the miserable Christian races to the yoke of a new master? |
21091 | [ 269]''Lord John Russell came and said to me,''says Mr. Gladstone,''"What will you do?" |
21091 | [ 345] H. M. seeming to agree in my main position, as did the Prince, asked me: But when will parliament return to that state? |
21091 | _ An aliquid sit immutabile? |
21091 | _ An malum a seipso possit sanari? |
21091 | justifiable? |
21091 | or in any measure short of the most direct and most effective means of meeting, if in_ any degree_ it be possible, these horrible calamities? |
21091 | viget alma Juventus? |
43968 | And what did ye say till him? |
43968 | Then it_ was_ him''at tried to rob ye? |
43968 | What did he want wi''yee? |
43968 | H. Siree, February, 1835, to April, 1837( assistant or incumbent?). |
43968 | Who then settled the dales, cleared the forest, drained the swamps, and made the wilderness into fields and farms? |
43968 | Why"beck?" |
44594 | Can the date of publication be proved? |
44594 | _ Query, what was Lady Lambert''s name? |
42975 | ( Surely this is more suggestive of Eve than of the serpent?) |
42975 | Again, what was that contract? |
42975 | But allowing that it occurred on the rolls, was it a genuine transaction or was it a facetious invention of the manor clerk? |
42975 | John Enot, archdeacon of Buckingham in the fifteenth century, complained tearfully that one Thomas Coneloye( was he a lawless Irish Connelly?) |
42975 | The first question is, is this a genuine extract from the rolls? |
43470 | And what for should I give it away when we''ll be wanting it ourselves maybe? |
43470 | Does it pain you? |
43470 | Well, my man; where are you hurt? |
43470 | What regiment? |
43470 | Does it not make one creep to think of it? |
43470 | Dr. W. stopped and said to his companion:"Did you see that? |
43470 | No man has complained, no man has asked"Why?" |
43470 | People began to ask anxiously what next? |
43470 | yes; why not?" |
40871 | Do you know,said he to Mr. Ferguson,"what is shown on board the commander- in- chief? |
40871 | I hope,said Nelson,"none of our ships have struck?" |
40871 | My old friend, Colonel Benbow,said he,"what do you here?" |
40871 | Should we both fall, Josiah,said he,"what would become of your poor mother? |
40871 | Then marched they toward the road, whereinto they entered softly, where were five warders, whom one of them asked, saying, who was there? 40871 Well, Hardy,"said Nelson,"how goes the day with us?" |
40871 | What,said he in his answer,"has poor Horatio, who is so weak, done, that he above all the rest should be sent to rough it out at sea? |
40871 | Who is that? |
40871 | ''What''s that to you, sir?'' |
40871 | But their astonishment may be imagined, when, on coming along side, they were hailed in good English with--"Won''t you heave us a rope now?" |
40871 | But who can be presumptuously sure of his own judgment? |
40871 | He brought an inquiry from the prince, What was the object of Nelson''s note? |
40871 | He had scarcely landed before the officers of the revenue inquired of his servant what he had in his sack? |
40871 | How can it be avoided? |
40871 | In answer to the question,"Who are you?" |
40871 | Shall we give them battle?" |
40871 | The admiral commanded the French captain on board him, and asked him if he was willing to lay down his sword? |
40871 | Then said Sonnings angrily,"What have you to do with any matters of mine? |
40871 | Then, shrugging up his shoulders, he repeated the words--"Leave off action? |
40871 | Think ye my attendance in these seas to be in vain, or my person to no purpose? |
40871 | What man can devise to save it? |
40871 | What satisfaction can I receive from the liberty to crawl a few years longer on the earth with the infamous load of a pardon at my back? |
40871 | Where are your bills of lading, your letters, passports, and the chief of your men? |
40871 | Who could stand the force of such general congratulations? |
40871 | Why stand ye aloof off? |
40871 | grandmamma,"replied the future hero,"I never saw fear: what is it?" |
40871 | have they broke me?" |
40871 | know ye not your duty to the Catholic king, whose person I here represent? |
40871 | que nuevas?_ Have these Englishmen yielded?" |
40871 | que nuevas?_ Have these Englishmen yielded?" |
40871 | said the king,"is that all that could be found for an old friend at Worcester? |
44684 | do these cattle mean we should kiss the shoes of every good man?''" |
44684 | that hamlet in Saxon Kent, Shall I find it when I come home? |
43701 | But should he be forgotten? |
43701 | He looked at me for a few moments in evident surprise, and said,"Is it to be larger than New York?" |
43701 | He replied,"So I have; where will it come?" |
43701 | He replied,"What is that? |
43701 | Her Majesty noticed it at once, and exclaimed,"Where is the cushion?" |
43701 | How comes it that this multitude of peoples, these descendants of martial races, live together in peace and amity? |
43701 | I rang the bell and the hall porter came in; I said,"What is that?" |
43701 | What would you do if you had to make a canal to Manchester?" |
30710 | ; but the question answered, satisfactorily or unsatisfactorily, was,Is there a remedy?" |
30710 | Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? 30710 --is this a mockery? 30710 A mockery? 30710 And if the question were asked-- When does monarchical or constitutional England first distinctively pass into Imperial Britain? 30710 And in their effect upon the national consciousness of Britain have these incidents followed any law traceable in other nations or empires? 30710 And in what cause have we died? |
30710 | And knowledge-- of what avail is knowledge?--or to scan the abysses of space and search the depths of time? |
30710 | And that army of ours which day by day advances not less irresistibly across the veldt of Africa, what does that army portend? |
30710 | And that steed, is it not nearing England now? |
30710 | And the campaigns of Napoleon, republican, consular, imperial? |
30710 | And those moments of serenest peace, when the desire of the heart is one with the desire of the world- soul, are not these attained by conflict? |
30710 | And to the Netherlands what does that army bring? |
30710 | And what is its place in the life- history of a State considered as an entity, an organic unity, distinct from the unities which compose it? |
30710 | And what is the faith of Algernon Sidney? |
30710 | And who shall affirm from what branch of the stock the architects of the sky- searching cathedrals sprang? |
30710 | Both ponder the question,"How could the disaster have been averted? |
30710 | But another aspect of the question concerns us here-- What is War in itself and by itself? |
30710 | But of England and the Teutonic race what shall one say? |
30710 | But to arraign the fountain and the end of the high action because of this baser alloy? |
30710 | CONTENTS PART I THE TESTIMONY OF THE PAST LECTURE I SECTION WHAT IS IMPERIALISM? |
30710 | Consider in contrast with these empires the question-- What is the distinction in this phase of human life of the Empire of Britain, of its history? |
30710 | Does not this vault then, arching above us, appear but as a vast amphitheatre? |
30710 | Doubt, contrition of soul, and the other modes of spiritual_ agonia_, are not these equivalent with the life, not death, of the soul? |
30710 | Even a partial solution of this problem requires a consideration of the question"What is War?" |
30710 | Fixed in her resolve, the will of God behind her, whither is her immediate course? |
30710 | For the sake of such emotional excitement or parade as are now by smokeless powder, maxims, long- range rifles, and machine guns abolished? |
30710 | For what does the fall of Rome mean, and what are its relations to this Empire of Britain? |
30710 | From what causes and by the operation of what laws has the great disillusion fallen upon the heart of Europe? |
30710 | Given that death is nothing, and the decline of empires but a change of form, will this empire of Imperial Britain also decline and fall? |
30710 | Has Count Tolstoi a campaign to narrate, or a battle, say the Borodino, to describe? |
30710 | Has all the blood from Lodi and Arcola to Austerlitz and the Borodino been shed in vain? |
30710 | Has he the enigma of modern times to solve, Napoleon I? |
30710 | Has not the present war given a harvest of instances? |
30710 | How could the decline of Rome have been stayed?" |
30710 | How is it related to the Divine? |
30710 | How is this ideal of the Imperialistic State related to that from which all States originally derive? |
30710 | How many Franks, one asks, followed the red banner of the Bastard to Senlac, or, leaning on their shields, watched the coronation at Westminster? |
30710 | How shall England, conqueror of those monarchs at Creçy and on other fields, reverence Rome, the dependent of a defeated antagonist? |
30710 | How shall it cease? |
30710 | How shall its bounds be made secure against encroachment, its own shores from coalesced foes? |
30710 | How shall the Eternal come or the Infinite be far off? |
30710 | How shall the justice of God be reconciled with the destiny He assigns to the souls of men? |
30710 | How then does Tolstoi regard War? |
30710 | I now spoke with myself thus--''O my soul, how long wilt thou continue to take pleasure in sin? |
30710 | If our forefathers found in this the true path, why should we seek another? |
30710 | In religion itself have we not similar variety of expression? |
30710 | In that final solitude what are pomp and circumstance to the heart? |
30710 | Is it not the procession of the gladiators and the amphitheatre of Rome? |
30710 | Is it possible to trace the process by which it has emerged? |
30710 | Is there anything whereof it may be said, See, this is new? |
30710 | Is there in human history a document more blasting to the reputation for political wisdom or foresight of him who penned it? |
30710 | It is the star of the future and the memory of Vergniaud''s phrase,"Posterity? |

30710 | THE UNCONSCIOUS AND THE CONSCIOUS IN HISTORY What is the nature of this Consciousness? |
30710 | The Girondinist queen climbing the scaffold, not less a lover of love and of life than Marie Antoinette-- what nerves her? |
30710 | The narrow space of the path in front of her that is discernible even dimly-- whither does it tend or appear to tend? |
30710 | The question asked was,"Is there a law regulating the fall of empires? |
30710 | The question resolves itself into two parts-- in what does the youth of a race or of an empire consist? |
30710 | The question,"What is History?" |
30710 | The second drama is named_ Ignatius Loyola_; the theme is not less absorbing--"Art thou then so sure of the truth and of thy sincerity, O my brother?" |
30710 | These are the forces contending against each other on the sterile veldt; this is the first act of the drama whose_ dénouement_--who dare foretell? |
30710 | Thus if the question were asked, With what period in the history of Rome does the present age correspond? |
30710 | To impeach on this account all the valour, all the wisdom long approved? |
30710 | To the brooding soul of the hermit, as to that of the warrior of Jehovah, what is earth, what are the shapes of time? |

30710 | WHAT IS MEANT BY THE"FALL OF AN EMPIRE"? |
30710 | War may change its shape, the struggle here intensifying, there abating; it may be uplifted by ever loftier purposes and nobler causes-- but cease? |
30710 | Was machst du an der Welt? |
30710 | Was there then no"zone of death"between the armies at Eyiau or at Gravelotte? |
30710 | We are in the thick of the deed-- how are we to judge it? |
30710 | Well might men ask themselves: Has then Voltaire lived in vain, and the Girondins died in vain? |
30710 | What characteristic, then, common to the whole Teutonic race, does this Empire of Britain represent? |
30710 | What distant generation shall behold_ that_ curtain? |
30710 | What have we to do with posterity? |
30710 | What is its historical basis? |

30710 | What to me are Mondays and Tuesdays? |
30710 | What tragedy of a lost leader equals this of Napoleon? |
30710 | What were the armies of Napoleon and the ruin of Europe''s dream to Háfiz and Sádi, and to the calm of the trackless centuries far behind? |
30710 | What, then, are the principles at issue in the present war? |
30710 | Where in the history of England, in the life of England as a State, does this energy, exalted by the hour of tragic vision, manifest itself? |
30710 | Which of the multifarious kingdoms and duchies could form the centre of a new union, federal or imperial? |
30710 | Whither are vanished the glorious hopes with which the century opened? |
30710 | Whither is this impulse to be directed? |
30710 | Whither then shall we turn for an explanation of his arraignment of war? |
30710 | Who are the founders of England, of Imperial Britain? |
30710 | Who can confront this unappalled? |
30710 | Who founded the Roman State? |
30710 | Who that has read the historian of Alva can forget the march of his army through the summer months some three hundred and thirty years ago? |
30710 | Why shapest thou the world? |
30710 | Will War then never cease? |
30710 | Will the form it now enshrines pass away, as the forms of Persia, Rome, the Empire of Akbar, have passed away? |
30710 | Will universal peace be for ever but a dream? |
30710 | Wondrous indeed is man''s course across the earth, and with what shall the works of his soul be compared? |
30710 | Would one discover the secret at the close of the century of the alliance of Russia and France, freedom''s forlorn hope when the century began? |
30710 | Would you see the end of Rome as in a figure darkly? |
30710 | Yet what is Carlyle''s judgment upon war? |
30710 | [ 2] Was machst du an der Welt? |
30710 | [ 5] Napoleon was fighting for a dead ideal with the strength of the men who had overthrown that ideal-- how should he prosper? |

39612 | And had he not already had most ample and most undeserved moderation shown to him? |
39612 | Can it be that some immense bribe was given, or promised, to Guy Fawkes for the excessively dangerous part which he was to play in the drama? |
39612 | Catesby answered,''Why were we commanded before to keep out one that was not a Catholic, and now may not exclude him?'' |
39612 | Catesby himself had certainly lost money, and a great deal of money; but how? |
39612 | Could he call himself a man if he trembled at the very thought of bloodshed? |
39612 | Could he have induced Manners to come to his rooms by no other attraction than a game of cards, which he had no intention of playing? |
39612 | Did he hesitate to go to Coughton through fear of Catesby, or was he afraid to trust himself in the presence of his wife? |
39612 | Does any such excuse exist for the Gunpowder Plot? |
39612 | Does... know him?" |
39612 | Had not Watson given King''s evidence? |
39612 | Had not foreign invasion been implored by Catholics? |
39612 | Had they not intended"the Lady Arabella"as a substitute for his own Royal Majesty upon the throne? |
39612 | Has he not played cards with my husband, and played well too, which is impossible for those not accustomed to the game? |
39612 | If he were really going to join the army in the Low Countries, why these long delays? |
39612 | If there be any matter in hand, doth Mr Walley know of it?" |
39612 | Let us hope that the game of cards diverted such thoughts; yet who could blame him if, with such matters on his mind, he forgot to follow suit? |
39612 | Need he have put himself to the trouble of apologising to Father Gerard for revealing that he was a Catholic? |
39612 | Or was the finding of a priest so difficult a thing just then as to make a wish to attempt it absurd? |
39612 | Was he alone, among the most zealous Catholic laymen of England, to show the white feather in a time of peril? |
39612 | Was it a violent attempt made on the spur of the moment, or was it the result of lengthy, deliberate, and anxious forethought? |
39612 | Was it necessary on his arrival there to ask him to await that of guests who were not coming, and had never been invited? |
39612 | Was it not sufficient consolation to him to reflect upon his good fortune in this respect? |
39612 | Was there not something biblical and appropriate, again, in destroying the enemies of the Lord with fire? |
39612 | Were the Catholics to rise and invade the houses of parliament with drawn sabres? |
39612 | What became of it? |
39612 | What did she? |
39612 | What had Lord Windsor done that his house should be pillaged? |
39612 | What is a good Catholic? |
39612 | What shall we do? |
39612 | What was the consequence? |
39612 | When they reflect upon all these things, can Catholics recall the memory of Sir Everard Digby with no other feelings than those of pity? |
39612 | When would he hear of the great event? |
39612 | Who were these princes and rulers? |
39612 | Who''s that which knocks? |
39612 | Why should his things be taken feloniously from his home during his absence? |
39612 | Would a Catholic have written such a passage as the following, which I take from the_ Dissuasive_? |
39612 | [ 35] Could it be that he thought her a silly woman, hurriedly contemplating a change of religion on too scanty consideration? |
39612 | [ 36]"How is it possible he can be a priest?" |
39612 | did he forget how he had said"that for the Catholick Cause he was content to neglect the ruine of himself, his Wife, his Estate, and all"? |

40522 | And so,said Sir Thomas,"you would really like to escape from this life of slavery?" |
40522 | And what of my lord? 40522 And what of the King and the brave Queen Margaret?" |
40522 | And who are you, my brave fellow? |
40522 | And you would not fear the Pope''s excommunication, which would assuredly follow? |
40522 | Are the tidings good or evil? |
40522 | But if anyone were to put the means of escape in your hands, would you be sufficiently daring to make the attempt? |
40522 | Do you know him? |
40522 | Do you often walk in this direction? |
40522 | Has the Mayor seen it? |
40522 | Have you had any further tidings, sir,inquired the younger Clifford,"of the movements of Richard of York?" |
40522 | How shall I know the King, for I shall wish to pay due respect to him? |
40522 | May I be allowed to ask who you may be,continued Sir William,"who are hunting in the King''s chase?" |
40522 | Now then, Mother Laycock,shouted Heber,"when is this ale coming?" |
40522 | Now, Mistress Laycock, you know I am a good customer, and always pay in the long run; is this ale forthcoming? |
40522 | Now, do you recognise the king? |
40522 | Pray, Sir John, by what authority do you act thus disloyally? |
40522 | Sir William Ingleby? |
40522 | The King, whom Heaven preserve, then is present in the chase? |
40522 | The caitiff,exclaimed Lady Wake,"what does he want down here? |
40522 | What do the stars reveal? |

40522 | What sport have you had this morning, husband mine? |
40522 | What want you, good people? |
40522 | What, are you afraid of encountering an army led by a woman? 40522 What, then, will be the effect upon the adherents of the House of Lancaster? |
40522 | Whence comest thou, Sir Knight, and what are thy tidings? |
40522 | Who but you advised the King that not a penny should be abated? |
40522 | Who is he? |
40522 | Why not escape, then, and fling off the chains that gall you? |
40522 | _ Clifford._--What seest thou in me, York? 40522 ; or, Boston in the Colonial Times; by Elias Nason, M.A.,who, in the preface, says--"Who was Sir C. H. Frankland? |
40522 | Are you assured that this fate is inevitable?" |
40522 | At first they thought of flight; but where to go? |
40522 | Do you care to commune with Nature? |
40522 | Fled he too? |
40522 | I suppose executions, attainders, and confiscations?" |
40522 | I suppose there is no hope of retrieval on the part of Queen Margaret?" |
40522 | In 1350, or thereabouts, Sir Thomas de Ingilby, Justice of the Common Pleas, married Catherine of Luerne, daughter and heiress of Bernard(?) |
40522 | Peter?" |
40522 | Surely he, of all men, would not stand aloof on such an occasion?" |
40522 | The executioners replied,"Who are you, and what madness prompts you that you have the audacity to impede the execution of the King''s justice?" |
40522 | To- day is ours; what do we fear? |
40522 | Was he indeed buried under the ruins of Lisbon at the time of the great earthquake? |
40522 | Was he rescued therefrom by the efforts of a poor girl, named Agnes Surriage, and did he afterwards make her his wife?" |
40522 | Was there ever such a collector of the port of Boston? |
40522 | Who is their King?" |
40522 | Why dost thou pause? |
40522 | can you be fit to wear the crown of England, who shut yourself up in a castle against a woman?" |
40522 | is he dead? |
40522 | or why was he absent?" |
40522 | said the Abbot, as he entered the room soon after,"how fares it with my daughter?" |
44909 | True it is, my lady, and full well I know it, but what can I do? 44909 And if he did none of these things, why does that forge pay a yearly fine to the Crown to this day for compounding a felony? 44909 If the Board School system is turning out a failure for our little peasants, what can we say for it when it claims the gipsy? 44909 Where does it lie? 44909 Why should he not be? 41250 And what age would you take_ me_ for?" |
41250 | And what are you doing up here yourself, Shan? |
41250 | And what''s that? |
41250 | And would you answer me this, gaffer? |
41250 | Him, is it? |
41250 | Is it near dark? |
41250 | Is there water near it? |
41250 | Oh,said he,"is it so much as that? |
41250 | So it''s you, Shan? |
41250 | Stuff a what? |
41250 | What time is that? |
41250 | What time o''day is it? |
41250 | When was that, Shan? |
41250 | Who was that? |
41250 | Who''s that old fellow? |
41250 | Why is it when a man''s soul is in his body, and he lusty and well, you think nothing of kicking him about as you would an old cast shoe? 41250 You do n''t seem to be popular with the dogs?" |
41250 | You have the Irish? |
41250 | _ Cad a- chlog é anois?_I ask one of the boys. |
41250 | A ROANY BUSH"Do you see that bush over there?" |
41250 | And do you be in Donegal often?" |
41250 | And skipping- stones? |
41250 | Another woman comes out of a shop with a crying child in her arms, and shouts at him:"Will you go away, then? |
41250 | As I approached the village I met an old woman-- I knew she was old by her voice-- who said to me:"Is n''t it a fine evening, that?" |
41250 | Can we live every day with these aspiring things, and not love beauty? |
41250 | Did I say one ceases to trouble about time? |
41250 | Did you ever hear that?" |
41250 | Do many people go mad here? |
41250 | I ask him in English"where he comes from,""who is his father,""who is his mother,""where he lives?" |
41250 | I asked him had he ever read"The Colloquy of the Two Sages(1)"? |
41250 | Is not a man and his passions as divine and turbulent as anything under the sun? |
41250 | Is not the comparison apter than one thinks? |
41250 | Looking for the dew- snail? |
41250 | One of them turns back and shouts after me:"Would you happen to have a match on you, gaffer?" |
41250 | PÚCA- PILES"What are these?" |
41250 | THE DARKNESS AND THE TIDE"What time o''day is it?" |
41250 | THE QUEST Where am I going? |
41250 | Then with a quaint grimace:"What are_ you_ doing up here?" |
41250 | WATER AND SLÁN- LUS What is more beautiful than water falling, or a spray of_ slán- lus_ with its flowers? |
41250 | Was he coughing at you? |
41250 | We were talking for some time when he said:"You''re a young man, by the looks of you?" |
41250 | Would you answer me that, gaffer?" |
42201 | And are you content that I should allot you a position in the wall? |
42201 | And yet,said the mason,"you declare you will not be satisfied to remain under constraint? |
42201 | Did you ever hear of the adage,''a rolling stone gathers no moss?'' |
42201 | Is that your final decision? |
42201 | Pray, what do you take yourself to be? |
42201 | That you can not do, my friend,returned the mason:"do n''t you see that the corner- stones are already in their places?" |
42201 | ''How the d---- could I get past your infernal dogs?'' |
42201 | ''It''s Mr M----; do n''t ye know his voice? |
42201 | ''Who''s there?'' |
42201 | Could the same air be always used for breathing? |
42201 | Do you think that I can stoop to fill the office of a mere wedge?" |
42201 | How can you be so blind as not to see that we are all stones alike, and all therefore equal?" |
42201 | How do fishes manage living in water in place of air? |
42201 | How much is there of it? |
42201 | I roared out,''what are you at? |
42201 | I was stunned by the report, and remained standing, until roused by one of the men asking me''was I shot?'' |
42201 | So, my good friend, you wish to have room to roll about in-- eh?" |
42201 | When the Welshman had played some tunes before the colonel, which he did very well, the nobleman asked him, had he ever heard so sweet a finger? |
42201 | Who are you?'' |
42201 | Who''s there?'' |
42201 | Will you be condescending enough to define your prerogatives? |
42201 | Will you go into the wall, or shall I deposit you again on the ground?" |
33883 | ''Are you quite sure?'' 33883 ''Is your father worse?'' |
33883 | Are ye growin''a moustache on the top o''your heid? |
33883 | But do n''t you know, my dear fellow,they exclaimed,"that it is only by means of a pickaxe that you can get a joke into the skull of a Scotchman?" |
33883 | But your wood is damp,she exclaimed;"how can ye expect it to burn? |
33883 | But, minister, have you not often told us that we ought to love our enemies? |
33883 | But,I added,"do you never use your violin?" |
33883 | Can I assist you, my dear? |
33883 | Could n''t you suggest me something to say? |
33883 | Do n''t you hear anything? |
33883 | Do you mean to say you have a Literary Society here? |
33883 | Do you take your porridge after your meat? |
33883 | Have you anything on your mind, Donald? 33883 His name, what is his name?" |
33883 | How shall I know the stone? 33883 Is it because there are no Jews in Aberdeen?" |
33883 | Is this your first visit to Scotland? |
33883 | It is a manufacturing town, I suppose? |
33883 | It may be, I dinna say no; but wha''ll gie me back my Janet? |
33883 | Janet,he says,"it must be verra sad to lie on your death bed and hae no ane to houd your han''in your last moments?" |
33883 | Janet,says Jamie, without accompanying his words with the slightest chalorous movement,"wad ye be that woman I was speakin''of?" |
33883 | May I assist you to a slice of ham? |
33883 | Nonsense,said my host kissing his old nurse,"who told you that? |
33883 | Oh, my poor Janet,he lamented,"why have ye left me? |
33883 | Really? |

33883 | How can two affianced people know each other, even if for years they try ever so hard? |
33883 | How hope to give a description of the Scotch Sabbath? |
33883 | How is that?" |
33883 | I am quite willing to admit that Wellington did exist, and that he rendered his country service; but is that a reason for turning him into a bore? |

40211 | How can we reason, but from what we know? |
40211 | And what but the spirit of silence will conciliate the Quakers? |
40211 | And would such be a Church of Christ? |
40211 | Are not the ministers of that Church afraid of every new discovery in science? |
40211 | But what is God? |
40211 | Can any man reasonably say, that we have yet passed the superstitious state? |
40211 | Can it be a Church of Christ? |
40211 | Do we know what a Church of Christ is in reality? |
40211 | First.--What is now the Church? |
40211 | How can you furnish spirit and noise enough for the Unknown Tongues of the Irvingites? |
40211 | I know you well enough to know, that you will not like its propounder; but who else has been ripe and bold enough to do it? |
40211 | If I can sink the past in oblivion for common good, who should say he can not? |
40211 | If Mr. Faraday had played you_ hocus pocus_ or legerdemain tricks, as a pretence of chemistry, would you have been satisfied? |
40211 | If not, and I say-- No, to what good purpose does this expensive establishment exist? |
40211 | In the Church now existing, is there aught but mystery that can be called its religion? |
40211 | In what class of ages do we place the dark ages of man''s history? |
40211 | Is it not so in Ireland? |
40211 | Is it not your greatest trouble in this island? |
40211 | Is it now so built? |
40211 | Is not this the grand_ desideratum?_ Can it be accomplished?--I think it can, and so proceed to unfold the two- fold consideration. |
40211 | It is a fair question to put to you and your party, if you know the first principles of the Institutions of this country? |
40211 | Know you not, Sir, that knowledge is power? |
40211 | Now what do we see? |
40211 | On what rock, then, must the Church of Christ be built, so that the gates of hell, or of evil design, or of dissent, may not prevail against it? |
40211 | On what, but KNOWLEDGE? |
40211 | Or a beautifully reflected picture of the heavens and its explanation lessen true devotion? |
40211 | Or what should it seek to be, other than a moral power? |
40211 | Or, may it not be put to a better purpose? |
40211 | The first consideration is-- What is now the Church? |
40211 | The second consideration will be-- What ought the Church to be, so as to leave no ground and reason of dissent? |
40211 | There would then be some ground for a bishop''s or overseer''s examination and confirmation; but what does confirmation now mean? |
40211 | Those who dissent by knowledge, or those by ignorance? |
40211 | To the Pagan, Jew, Mahometan, Infidel, or whose? |
40211 | To which will you yield, or whom will you join? |

40211 | What seeks your Church to be? |
40211 | What the cause of that dissent which has made a revision necessary? |
40211 | What the cause of that dissent, which has made a revision necessary? |
40211 | What, then, is the revelation of the mystery of Christ? |
40211 | What, then, ought the Church to be, so as to have no ground and reason of dissent? |
40211 | When Peter, in the Gospel, is called upon to feed the lambs of Christ, what was meant?--to feed them with grass? |
40211 | When there, were you asked to believe anything? |
40211 | Who else deserves the honour of being its propounder; but I, its honest martyr and zealous student, through a ten years''imprisonment? |
40211 | Will their pride let them learn of me? |
40211 | Will you now grant that commission? |
40211 | Would moral; science profane the pulpit or injure the congregation? |
40211 | Would the experimental lectures of a Faraday, desecrate the building? |
40211 | You may ask, how is this to be done? |
40211 | You must have read that celebrated axiom of Bacon''s; but have you considered it, have you reflected, have you repented and proved that axiom? |
40211 | and if it may, why not? |

41129 | Among all the mistakes which had been made by the Allies, can the keenest critic discover anything to compare with this? |
41129 | And if Germany can not find gold to pay for the wheat she so sorely needs from Rumania, what are her prospects of finding it for other countries? |
41129 | And if Verdun falls, will the victory be worth the price? |
41129 | And if this is true of England, can we blame the neutral nations and our Allies if they are no more scrupulous? |
41129 | And will anyone contend that, in bringing the German design to hopeless ruin, Britain has not played a worthy part? |
41129 | And, with France helpless and Britain neutral, what would have been Russia''s chance of escaping disaster? |
41129 | But are we quite so sure that, failure though it was, it was all lost effort, or even, as things were, that it was not worth the price we paid? |

41129 | Can we doubt the issue? |
41129 | Can we say in the face of all these things that the policy of"frightfulness"has been anything but a blunder of the first magnitude? |
41129 | Can we say that in this direction, more than in others, the German plans have gone well? |
41129 | Can we, with all these advantages, break decisively the German lines in the West, which the enemy professes to regard as impregnable? |
41129 | Could we defeat her through our undisputed command of the sea? |
41129 | Do we owe any consideration to such a nation? |
41129 | Have we been as prudent? |
41129 | How can we show our appreciation of what Belgium, the greatest martyr of all, has done for the sacred cause of liberty? |
41129 | How have we taken up the task of creating forces which might be regarded as commensurate to meet the menace by which civilisation found itself faced? |

44980 | And what had become of our friend Blood in these stirring times? |
44980 | But what, meanwhile, had happened to Mason and his friends? |
44980 | Had He abandoned them to their enemies? |
44980 | Had he, like many others, preferred the safer course, withdrawn into private life and abandoned his property and ambitions together? |
44980 | Meanwhile what of our friend Blood amid all these great affairs? |
44980 | Might not another restore the Covenant and give back to the afflicted saints their inheritance and the spoil of the Philistines? |
44980 | Was He to look on unmoved? |
44980 | Was it not their part as brave and righteous men to strike another blow for the faith that was in them and the heritage He had put in their hands? |
44980 | Was this not rather a device of His to try their constancy and courage? |
44980 | What is the explanation of this extraordinary circumstance? |
44980 | What is the moral of it all? |
44980 | What were men like Blood to do? |
44980 | When 1660 came and this was all reversed, when the old party was in the ascendant, the king on the throne, what would become of them? |
44980 | Who was he and what was the motive of this apparently foolhardy and purposeless piece of bravado? |

43250 | Are you alone, my dears? |

43250 | Did not a great many kings and queens live in Richmond, besides Queen Elizabeth? |
43250 | Do they have cows in London? |
43250 | Do you see that stone in the floor with the flowers on it? |
43250 | Does he not look wise, Edith? 43250 Does not London look smoky and dark?" |
43250 | Does not the river look gay? |
43250 | Have you a good boat for us to- day? 43250 How would you and Edith like to go with me to Hyde Park this afternoon?" |
43250 | Is it not nearly tea- time? 43250 Is not he a beauty, Edith?" |
43250 | Is not this a lovely old room, mamma? |
43250 | It''s just like dolls keeping house; is n''t it lovely, mamma? |
43250 | It_ has_ been a nice day, and we will have some others, too, when Adelaide comes, wo n''t we? |
43250 | Oh, what is that? |
43250 | Oh,gasped Edith in amazement,"are n''t you afraid?" |
43250 | Well, are you young people ready for dinner? |
43250 | What are we going to see to- day, aunty? |
43250 | What would you like to show Edith to- day? |
43250 | Why do we always eat more out- of- doors,said Edith,"than when we are indoors eating in the proper way? |
43250 | Can somebody explain why? |
43250 | Do n''t you think it was very good of the girls when they went over afterward to take tea with the"Twins"that they did not crow over them a bit? |

43250 | Now, which would you rather see first, Tom or the castle?" |
43250 | Of course it is much heavier and bigger than a carriage of to- day, but what did that matter with four horses to pull it? |
43250 | Presently the little girl, who had been glancing at Edith, leaned over and said, eagerly:"They will soon be here, wo n''t they? |
43250 | Sure enough, Tony was peering around at them as much as to say,"I''m watching you; are n''t you almost ready to start?" |

31253 | And others,said I,"have perhaps seen the the same?" |
31253 | But,said I to this man,"you have not the gipsy colour and features?" |
31253 | --"And are all the children in this neighbourhood as much frightened at them as you?" |
31253 | --"And then you touch golden fees, I suppose?" |
31253 | --"And what has so frightened you?" |
31253 | --"But what did he do to them?" |
31253 | --"But,"said I,"what are you frightened at? |
31253 | --"Then,"said I,"you call yourselves Christians?" |
31253 | --Have you seen them? |
31253 | After some expressions of heart- felt commisseration, I enquired by what mischance he had met with so untoward a wound? |
31253 | And do they not transfer those means to others who do not want them, and who, without the aid of new laws could never have enjoyed them? |
31253 | And is not the timber of many fruit- trees as useful as the timber of many of the lumber- trees which now encumber our soil? |
31253 | Are ideas more numerous than musical sounds, and tones, and tunes? |
31253 | Are not those graves, then, said I, the end of thousands of busy cares and ambitious projects? |
31253 | Are there not desolate countries enough in which to grow trees for the mere purposes of timber? |
31253 | Are there not soils and situations even in England, where none but timber- trees can grow? |
31253 | Are these the genuine fruits of civilization? |
31253 | But he employs the neighbourhood, patronizes the arts, and encourages trade? |
31253 | But, I ask, for whom, and for whose benefit, are these bills passed? |
31253 | Can a more interesting picture be drawn of virtuous exertion? |
31253 | Can the_ pulpit_ be expected to advocate political truth, while the patronage of the Church is in the hands of the Administration of the day? |
31253 | Did it never occur, however, to the clergymen who superintend these depositories of mortality, that more respect is due to the feelings of survivors? |
31253 | Did the early reformers detect the whole of them? |
31253 | Did you see the old hag, sir?" |
31253 | Do not the phenomena appear constantly to accompany the same bodies, and are they not therefore occasioned by the qualities of the bodies? |
31253 | Do not the powers of musical characters and of the telegraph prove the facility and capacity of very simple combinations? |
31253 | Do not these objects, and all exertions of reasoning, prove, that the climax of human wisdom is# HUMILITY#? |
31253 | Do such circumstances indicate the ascendency of benevolence? |
31253 | Do they help those who require help? |
31253 | Do they increase the number of independent fire- sides?--Rather, do they not wantonly add to the means of monopolists? |
31253 | Do they not abridge the scanty means of the poor in the free use of their bare- cropt commons? |
31253 | Do they not add to the number of vassals, and diminish the number of freemen? |
31253 | Do they not give where nothing is wanted, however much may be coveted? |
31253 | Do they provide for the poor? |
31253 | Do they, by augmenting the supply, make provisions cheaper? |
31253 | Do we hear of the suffrages of the people among the Turks, the Russians, the Moors, or the Algerines? |
31253 | Does Claude ever revel in solitudes? |
31253 | Does Poussin fascinate in exhibitions of mechanical nature? |
31253 | Does not some malevolent influence then deprive us of the advantages of our ingenuity? |
31253 | Does not the Christmas game of_ Twenty_ indicate the narrow range of all our ideas? |
31253 | Does not this conclusion best accord with the simplicity of nature? |
31253 | For what but for such purposes of equalizing happiness are governments constituted and maintained? |
31253 | Granted,--but whence come his means? |
31253 | Has education yet effected nothing for mankind,_ owing to its servility to power_? |
31253 | Has nature provided abundance, and do we create insuperable bars to its enjoyment? |
31253 | Have we conceived the utmost limits of its abstractions? |
31253 | Have we examined the powers of all its terms with equal care? |
31253 | How can a being, then, of such limited powers presume to examine nature beyond the mere surface? |
31253 | How can he measure unseen powers, of which he has no perception, but in the phenomena visible to his senses? |
31253 | How much more am I incapable of knowing, with my limited organs of sense, than I might know if their capacity or their number were enlarged? |
31253 | Humanly speaking, I exclaimed-- Am I not in the House of God? |
31253 | If it were not so, would not the stroke always affect the higher objects, or prefer palpable conductors in moderately elevated sites? |
31253 | In either case, what is the benefit to the public or the community? |
31253 | In short, are the vices of gluttony, drunkenness, pugilism, and prodigality, any where more indulged? |
31253 | In this we rejoice; but, from our past experience of the effects, I ask emphatically,# Why#? |
31253 | Is it necessary for any evident purpose, that the gates should be locked at any time, or for more than a few hours in the night? |
31253 | Is it necessary that the phenomena should be confined to particular bodies, if there are as many active fluids as phenomena? |
31253 | Is it not to mistake the means for the end, to teach any language, except as the medium of superior philosophy? |
31253 | Is it probable that two active powers could be co- existent? |
31253 | Is not the sanguinary power of law suffered to devour its victims for_ first_ relapses from virtue, as unsparingly as for any number of repetitions? |
31253 | Is not this puny structure a tribute of man to the Architect of the Universe? |
31253 | Is our wisdom confined in so narrow a circle? |
31253 | Is religion in the pulpit but a plausible means of palliating the crimes of statesmen,_ owing to the ambition of its professors_? |
31253 | Is such the line of demarcation between the selfish ordinances of man, and the wise dispensations of Providence? |
31253 | Is the press but a more effective engine for promulgating sophistry,_ owing to its ready corruption_? |
31253 | Is the series capable of no further application, extension, or variation? |
31253 | Is the system of the public schools, where our statesmen and legislators are educated, addressed to the# HEART# as well as the# HEAD#? |
31253 | Is this, said I, the vaunted age of reason? |
31253 | May not certain varieties of these involved series of atoms constitute the several media which produce the several phenomena of matter? |
31253 | May not motion grow out of the vacuum between the atoms of that universal medium? |
31253 | May not the different qualities of bodies be sufficient to explain the phenomena on the hypothesis of one active power? |
31253 | May not the elasticity of a universal medium account for most of the intricate phenomena of bodies? |
31253 | May not the events of a morning which slides away, and leaves no traces behind it, be correctly likened therefore to the entire course of human life? |
31253 | May not the extinction of one species render the existence of others more unfit, by diminishing the number of final causes? |
31253 | May there not be set within set, each necessary to the motion of the other, till we approximate a plenum? |
31253 | Must we for ever be the dupes of superstition, or the slaves of upstart authority? |
31253 | Ought not the ghosts of Shakespeare to be_ supposed_ merely as the effects of diseased vision, or a guilty imagination? |
31253 | Pride, the bane of man-- I exclaimed, as I passed the gate-- what are its claims? |
31253 | Was it not evidently pre- ordained, therefore, that I should walk along that street, at that time, for the purpose of relieving that family?" |
31253 | Was not life the# MERE DREAM# of their now senseless tenants-- like the trackless path of a bird in the air, or of a fish in the waters? |
31253 | Was the world made for the many, or the few? |
31253 | What an interesting series!--But I solemnly put the question, Have we arrived at the last of its terms? |
31253 | What can be more strongly marked than the gipsy physiognomy? |
31253 | What can now be learnt of anatomy which can not be found in books and models, or be taught in the dissection of murderers? |
31253 | What demons, contriving mischief and torments, could have invented a combination of miseries so terrible and heart- rending? |
31253 | What is our real condition? |
31253 | What medicine can allay the fever which is often exasperated by their clangor? |
31253 | What then is the security against the intrusion of the vicious? |
31253 | What then, I exclaimed, has been done with it? |
31253 | Where is the monument to be found in the public buildings of London, to record thy virtues for the example of others? |
31253 | Why have our poets failed to colour and finish it? |
31253 | Why then appropriate so fine a piece of ground to so barren a purpose? |
31253 | Why then sacrifice to the pride of custom that which in other dispositions might add so much to the sum of happiness? |
31253 | Would it not be a worthy companion to the statues of Beckford and Chatham? |
31253 | Would it now be possible to poison Socrates, banish Aristides, and crucify Jesus, for teaching truth and practising virtue? |
31253 | Yet does reason afford no alternative? |
31253 | Yet, if bridges remain private property,# FOR WHAT BENEFIT# has so much money been expended? |
31253 | Yet, is not this the general characteristic of English society, from the Orkneys to the Land''s- End? |
31253 | Yet, is such the effect? |
31253 | have you heard that they have done harm to any one?" |
31253 | said I, when will the generation arrive that will not merit as much pity from succeeding generations as those poor monks? |
31253 | thought I, I am sensible how little I know; yet how much is there which I do not, and can never, know? |
31253 | will the golden mean of reason never govern the practices of men? |

41788 | Did he draw his habit of concentration on the matter in hand, his painstaking attention to detail, from the inventor- engineer of Aberdeen? |
41788 | Do you remember?" |
41788 | Do you think it would be safe for you to advance your force or part of it to Stormberg, and hold that instead of Queenstown? |

41788 | Gatacre complimented him highly, and said:"''Now, what can I do for you? |
41788 | Have you got it out here?" |
41788 | In a letter to Stephen, dated from Gatacre, July 20, 1860, we find the following passage:"Did you know that there was an Alderney bull come? |
41788 | In the meantime, what had become of the other detachments? |
41788 | It was very annoying, just at the finish, was n''t it? |

41788 | The thought of doing that journey again so soon was most distasteful, but the officer only asked:"What time do we start?" |

23605 | Can you conceive a more bitter mind than that which calls a girl of the streets a Fallen Sister? |

23605 | Did I know old Jumbo? |

23605 | Have you ever smelt Irish stew after being sixteen hours without food? |
23605 | He called me a-- a-- what was it he called me?" |
23605 | He hailed me in Oxford Street, and cried:"Where now, laddie, where now?" |
23605 | He knew a place, quite near, where some of the boys were sure to be; what about it? |
23605 | He said he had n''t much money, so what about it? |
23605 | He said,"Laddie, doing anything to- night?" |
23605 | He said:"Like to help your old uncle?" |
23605 | He said:"Well, what about it?" |
23605 | He said:"What is it?" |
23605 | He said:"Would you marry your aunt? |

23605 | I have watched the nuts and the girls, and what have I seen? |
23605 | I said,"No; what''s on?" |
23605 | I wonder what the moral is? |
23605 | If not... m''I see you home?" |
23605 | Imitations of Robey, Formby, Chirgwin-- what?" |
23605 | It smelt-- how shall I give it to you? |
23605 | Landlady said she was sorry; did n''t know it annoyed me; but you could n''t keep food from smelling, could you? |
23605 | Let''s see-- how do they go? |
23605 | Nah then-- what say to six- and- a- arf?" |
23605 | One heard the creak of opening windows, and voices:"Why doncher separate''em? |
23605 | One of the boys asked casually,"What''s up?" |
23605 | Oo''s got a fag?" |
23605 | Or is it that the ragtime kings have gone to the antiquities of the Orient for their melodies? |
23605 | Or perhaps as a literary man you come here for Keats... Coleridge... and all that?" |
23605 | Or where a panorama like those that sweep before you from Highgate Archway or the Islington Angel? |
23605 | Or where shall you find a sweeter pastoral than that field of lights that thrills the midnight sojourner in lower Piccadilly? |
23605 | Other people wanter have a see, do n''t they?" |
23605 | Please, Mr. W. D. Howells, will you write it for us? |

23605 | She said to the anarchist:"Where''s mine?" |
23605 | Some cried"Whassup?" |
23605 | Some one came and shoved a fuzzy head through the door, asking lazily,"Whassup?" |
23605 | Suppose we had just one more? |
23605 | Tell me-- how can I do it? |
23605 | The girl at the door spoke in a hoarse whisper:"''Ere-- you better go-- you first?" |

23605 | There is a mass of the best work that is suitable for quartet or quintet, or has been adapted for small orchestra; why is it never heard? |
23605 | There seemed to be trouble.... One heard a querulous voice:"I said TIME, din''I?" |
23605 | They got a big handful of applause, and then Freddie asked:"Ready, sir?" |
23605 | They look helpless; they have an air expressive of:"Well, what the devil shall we do_ now_?" |
23605 | They say,"Is n''t it cold?" |
23605 | They shamelessly broke into his periods with"_ Is n''t_ he IT?" |
23605 | Those who were strangers approached deferentially, and said:"You got a friend, miss? |
23605 | Up the Pacific, so glamorous and gay, Where night is of blue, and of silver the day.__ Yellow man, yellow man, what did you there? |

23605 | Where, too, are the song- writers? |
23605 | Whither do they go? |
23605 | Who composed"Hot Time in the Old Town to- night"--the song that led the Americans to victory in Cuba and the Philippines? |
23605 | Who composed"Let''s all go down the Strand,"a song that surely should have been adopted as The Anthem of London? |
23605 | Who composed"Tipperary"? |

23605 | Why may not the girls talk in certain rooms? |
23605 | Why may they not read anything but the books provided? |
23605 | Why may they not talk in bed? |
23605 | Why must they fold their bed- clothes in such- and- such an exact way? |

4245 | But in what manner will that house conduct itself? |
4245 | Can it be said that this was a false fact, and that no such assurances were in truth given? |
4245 | Did he assure the Prince of Orange that he would never do that which he was engaged to the Prince of Orange to do? |
4245 | Did they enjoy in a greater degree her favour and confidence? |
4245 | First, was it not in itself just and necessary? |
4245 | How long before it follows the usual course of all armies, and ranges itself under a single master? |
4245 | If he had such an accusation to make, why did he not make it? |
4245 | If it should, will it not be obliged to support its claims by military force? |
4245 | If such a master should arise, will he establish an hereditary or an elective government? |
4245 | If the first, what will be gained but a change of dynasty? |
4245 | In order to conceal from motives, whether honourable or otherwise, his connection with the prince? |
4245 | Is the difference to be attributed to any superiority of genius in the prince whom they served in the latter period of their lives? |
4245 | It is not in itself unlikely; and who is there that would not wish it true? |
4245 | It is related by Ferguson that Monmouth said to Matthews,"What shall I do with Lord Grey?" |
4245 | Or will he fail, and shall we have a restoration, usually the most dangerous and worst of all revolutions? |
4245 | Secondly, was the example of it likely to be salutary or pernicious? |
4245 | The first question that naturally presents itself must be, was this declaration true? |
4245 | The question of what are to be the powers of the crown, is surely of superior importance to that of who shall wear it? |
4245 | To what purpose was the falsehood? |
4245 | What follows? |
4245 | Why, then, did he continue silent, when he found James inexorable? |
4245 | Would he not pray for the king, and send a dutiful message to his majesty to recommend the duchess and his children? |
4245 | a fiction in one paragraph of the letter in order to conceal a fact, which in the next he declares his intention of revealing? |

4184 | --"Not I?" |
4184 | And all our prizes who did swallow? |
4184 | And the Duke of York said further,"What said Marshal Turenne, when some in vanity said that the enemies were afraid, for they entrenched themselves? |
4184 | And who the forts left unprepared? |
4184 | I did then desire to know what was the great matter that grounded his desire of the Chancellor''s removal? |
4184 | Impudent rascal, do you ask me for money? |
4184 | Is not this a high reason? |
4184 | It was pleasantly said by a man in this City, a stranger, to one that told him that the peace was concluded,"Well,"says he,"and have you a peace?" |

4184 | Whose counsel first did this mad war beget? |
4184 | Will you pay me, sir? |
4184 | are they quarrelling, that they talk so high?" |
4184 | says he:"I would have you know that I never quarrel, but I strike; and take that as a rule of mine!"--"How?" |
4184 | says the Duchess,"what should he go for, if he were well, for there are no ships for him to command? |
4184 | will it not make the pot boyle?" |

18218 | Could a man in gaol, dishonored and reprobated, take effectual means to recover the arrears which he was called upon to pay? |
18218 | Could he, in such a situation, recover the money which was unpaid to him, in such an extensive district as Benares? |
18218 | Did General Clavering, or Colonel Monson, whom he charges with this system, send them there? |
18218 | Did Mr. Francis, whom I saw here a little while ago, send these people into that country? |
18218 | Did Mr. Hastings endeavor to make his strength equal to the task imposed on him? |
18218 | Did Mr. Hastings so inquire? |
18218 | Did Mr. Markham make it? |
18218 | Did he consult the laws? |
18218 | Did he endeavor to meet these charges fairly, as he might have done? |
18218 | Did he even then, I ask, produce any one charge against this man? |
18218 | Did he ever give any notice to the Supreme Council of the charges which he says he had received against Cheyt Sing? |
18218 | Did he ever state it to the Rajah, or did he call his vakeel before the Council to answer the charge? |
18218 | Did he examine any one person, or particularize a single fact, in any manner whatever? |
18218 | Did he inform his secret confidants, Mr. Anderson and Major Palmer, upon that subject? |
18218 | Did he inform them of the amount of the gross collections of the country, from any properly authenticated accounts procured from any public office? |
18218 | Did he insinuate in that letter that he was going up to Benares to suppress a rebellion of the Rajah Cheyt Sing or to punish him? |
18218 | Did he look to the Hedaya, or to any of the approved authorities in this country? |
18218 | Did he look to the Institutes of Timour, or to those of Genghis Khân? |
18218 | Did he not make the people''s resistance, when the soldiers attempted to pillage them, one of the crimes of Cheyt Sing? |
18218 | Did he require his counsel not"to let down the dignity of his defence"? |
18218 | Did he then give up his authority? |
18218 | Do I say it? |
18218 | Do I say this from any confidence in myself? |
18218 | Does Mr. Balfour come forward and tell him who his informant was? |
18218 | Does he say,"He was an informant whom I dare not name, upon account of his great consequence, and the great confidence I had in him"? |
18218 | From all such persons, I say, it was taken: and where, my Lords, was it deposited? |
18218 | Has he pursued the complaint? |
18218 | Have they lost their senses in their guilt? |
18218 | He mentions his intention of levying a fine; but does he make any mention of having charged the Rajah with his offences? |
18218 | He resolved to fine him in the enormous sum of 500,000_l._ Does he inform the Council of this determination? |
18218 | How came it, then, that the Commons of Great Britain should be calumniated for the course which they have taken? |
18218 | How comes it that he is not produced here to tell your Lordships who was his informer, and what he knows of the transaction? |
18218 | How dared he to make these experiments? |
18218 | I admit, that, if his will is the law, he may take[ make?] |
18218 | I ask, How did they know this? |
18218 | I have done with it, and have only to ask, In what country do we live, where such a scene can by any possibility be offered to the public eye? |
18218 | If any one of the ravages[ charges?] |
18218 | If you ask, Who is this Mr. Balfour? |
18218 | In the distress[ in?] |
18218 | In this tremendous scene, which he himself exposes, are there no signs of this captain- generalship which I have alluded to? |
18218 | In what manner can he be justified for playing fast and loose with the dearest interests, and perhaps with the very existence, of a nation? |
18218 | Is it your Lordships''pleasure that the Judges do now give their opinion on that question?" |
18218 | Is there an article in that treaty that he might not as well have made at Calcutta? |
18218 | Is there an article that he broke( for he broke them all) that he could not have broken at Calcutta? |
18218 | Is this resistance, so excited, so provoked, a plea for irreconcilable vengeance? |
18218 | Is this what they call British dominion? |
18218 | Is this, my Lords, the proper way to adjudge a fine? |
18218 | Mr. Hastings having thus rendered the Council blind and ignorant, and consequently fit for subserviency, what does he next do? |
18218 | My Lords, what shall we say to this demeanor? |
18218 | My Lords, what should we say of such brutish ignorance, and such shocking confusion of ideas? |
18218 | Next think of the situation of the princes of the country, obliged to complain without matter of complaint, to approve without[ ground?] |
18218 | Now what does he recommend to the board? |
18218 | Now what was the conduct of Mr. Hastings as judge? |
18218 | Now, my Lords, was there ever such a discovery made of the arcana of any public theatre? |
18218 | Of the money thus obtained what account has been given? |
18218 | On what data could the prisoner at your bar have formed this estimate? |
18218 | Shall I not, then, call him their captain- general? |
18218 | Shall not your Lordships call him so? |
18218 | Suppose Lord Cornwallis to have done wrong; suppose him to have acted illegally; does that clear the prisoner at your bar? |
18218 | The Court of Directors? |
18218 | The plunder of the fort being thus given to the soldiers, what does Mr. Hastings next do? |
18218 | The presumption of bias may be taken off by showing the witness has a[ as?] |
18218 | The tribute had before been 250,000_l._, and he all at once raised it to 400,000_l._ Did he previously inform the Council of these intentions? |
18218 | Therefore the only question is, Whether,_ upon principles of reason, justice, and convenience_, this witness be admissible? |
18218 | This is what all the rest of the world would say: but what says Mr. Hastings? |
18218 | Was it not an abominable thing in Mr. Hastings to withhold from the Council the means of ascertaining the real operation of his taxes? |
18218 | Was the prisoner willing to examine him? |
18218 | Was there in this case any palliative matter? |
18218 | Was this the conduct of the Mogul conquerors of India? |
18218 | We are not come here to compromise matters; we do not admit[ do admit?] |
18218 | We find him pursuing his own visionary projects, without knowing anything of the nature or[ of?] |
18218 | Well, if he did so, what precaution did Mr. Hastings take for his own safety? |
18218 | What are the merits and services, or what the qualifications, which entitle him to such an uncommon distinction? |
18218 | What are the professed objects of his appointment? |
18218 | What did Mr. Hastings then say of this transaction? |
18218 | What did he do in this case? |
18218 | What did you do? |
18218 | What do the Company know of him? |
18218 | What is this authority to which he is restored? |
18218 | What laws of his country justified him in forcing upon the Vizier the civil servants of the Company? |
18218 | What reason was there to think that he should not be sent a third time, who had been sent twice before? |
18218 | What share in the proceeding doth the High Steward, then, take? |
18218 | What state could exist that allowed its inferior members to hold forts and garrisons independent of the superior administration? |
18218 | What system of policy, except his own wicked, arbitrary system, authorized him to act thus? |
18218 | What treaty authorized him to do it? |
18218 | What was his answer? |
18218 | What would be the inference from such an assumption? |
18218 | What, then, are we to think of his persevering in this error? |
18218 | What, then, did he do? |
18218 | What, therefore, are the things due and belonging to the office in a case of this kind? |
18218 | Whenever men are oppressed where they ought to be protected, we called[ call?] |
18218 | Who made the servants of the Company the master of the servants of the Company? |
18218 | Who says all this, my Lords? |
18218 | Who was the instrument employed in all this double- dealing? |
18218 | Who was the person chosen by Mr. Hastings to succeed Cheyt Sing? |
18218 | Why did he not send an order from Calcutta for the payment of the money? |
18218 | Why did they do so? |
18218 | Why should it ever have been supposed that we are actuated by revenge? |
18218 | Why, I again ask, did he destroy the constitution which he found established there, or suffer it to be destroyed? |
18218 | Why, then, did he go to try experiments there in his own person? |
18218 | Why, then, was his presence necessary? |
18218 | Why, then, we ask, did he not send an army? |
18218 | Why? |
18218 | Why? |
18218 | Why? |
18218 | Why? |
18218 | Why? |
18218 | Why? |
18218 | Why? |
18218 | Will you sanction by your judicial authority transactions done in direct defiance of your legislative authority? |
18218 | With respect to the three lacs of rupees, or 30,000_l._, which was to be given to these women, have we a scrap of paper to prove its payment? |
18218 | Would you consider it possible, my Lords, that there could be an aggravation of such a case as you have heard? |
18218 | and must this_ necessarily_ be the policy of their Christian successors? |
18218 | fly from a Governor- General? |
18218 | have they run mad? |
18218 | in what country, and in what barbarous nation of Hottentots was this jargon picked up? |
18218 | is there a single receipt or voucher to verify their having received one sixpence of it? |
18218 | my Lords, what shall we say in this stage of the business? |
18218 | my Lords, where was this language learned? |
18218 | was there ever such a doctrine before heard? |
18218 | what are the examples which he has chosen? |
46439 | ''Oh, where is the isle we''ve seen in dreams, Our destin''d home or grave?'' |
46002 | Ask you why Wharton broke through every rule? 46002 Has the fool done this folly?" |
46002 | What can I do to the girl,he asked tartly,"if she is like to die?" |
46002 | What is this forest call''d? |
46002 | It is, no doubt, like all great commercial centres, of paramount interest to its inhabitants; but to the traveller what is it? |
46002 | Who thinks of history when he goes to Hull? |
2612 | And, Mr. Hampden, did not you afterwards send your wife to thank him for his kindness? |
2612 | Are those brave fellows in Londonderry to be deserted? 2612 Are you,"he said,"for King James?" |
2612 | But did Lord Halifax take any money? |
2612 | Did you meet the new Secretary of State going out? |
2612 | Do you wish,said William peevishly,"to see me dead?" |
2612 | How goes the day? |
2612 | How now? |
2612 | If the Convention,--it was thus that he argued,--"was not a Parliament, how can we be a Parliament? |
2612 | Is it not strange,asked Halifax,"that you should have requested the good offices of one whose arts had brought your head into peril?" |
2612 | Is none of my lads so clever as to send this judge packing? 2612 Is this business over?" |
2612 | Not at all,said Hampden;"to whom was I to apply except to the men who were in power? |
2612 | Says God to the Hielandman,''Quhair wilt thou now?'' 2612 Then bespoke Mary, our most royal Queen,''My gracious king William, where are you going?'' |
2612 | What took him there? |
2612 | What will you do for me? |
2612 | What, my Lord? |
2612 | What,he said,"dare you own me now?" |
2612 | What,said he,"do you not know your friends?" |
2612 | Where are you going, my Lord? |
2612 | Where was your conscience,said Tutchin,"when you passed that sentence on me at Dorchester?" |
2612 | Who is this woman? 2612 Will you thank the King,"they said,"for putting the sword into the hands of his most dangerous enemies? |
2612 | Among the statesmen and warriors who bore the chief part in restoring Charles the Second, how many were there who had not repeatedly abjured him? |
2612 | And are we to reward them by now permitting them to destroy it? |
2612 | And how could the stream rise higher than the source? |
2612 | And is an order thus favoured by the state to give no guarantee to the state? |
2612 | And is it not probable that, by thus attempting to heal one schism, we may cause another? |
2612 | And to whom could they look for a solution of this doubt? |
2612 | And was it altogether deserved? |
2612 | And was not the English government exposed to the dangers which, even if all its servants were true, might well excite serious apprehensions? |
2612 | And what distinction was there between that case and the case which had now arisen? |
2612 | And what effect was likely to be produced in England by the cry of thousands of innocent English families whom an English king had doomed to ruin? |
2612 | And what had been done that was not in strict accordance with the law of Parliament? |
2612 | And what theologian would assert that, in such cases, we ought, from abhorrence of the evil, to reject the good? |
2612 | And where, it was said, is the danger of treating them with tenderness? |
2612 | And why, if the clergyman really means to observe the laws, does he scruple to take the oaths? |
2612 | And yet, if such a bill had been passed, what would it have effected beyond what was effected by the Toleration Act? |
2612 | And, even if wrong had been done, how was it to be redressed? |
2612 | Are our brethren to perish almost in sight of England, within a few hours''voyage of our shores?" |
2612 | Are we therefore to forget that they had previously endangered it? |
2612 | As soon as the King''s decision was known, the question was every where asked, What will the Archbishop do? |
2612 | But if he proved to be a minister for evil, on what grounds was he to be considered as divinely commissioned? |
2612 | But was one injustice to be redressed by committing another injustice more monstrous still? |
2612 | But what chance was there of such a counterrevolution? |
2612 | But what would be the effect of such laws at Westminster? |
2612 | But will the new test, will any test, be more efficacious? |
2612 | But would such a clause supply the place of a clause designating the successor by name? |
2612 | By whom had Shales been recommended for so important a place as that of Commissary General? |
2612 | Can we believe that his conscience will suffer him to do all this, and yet will not suffer him to promise that he will be a faithful subject to them? |
2612 | Could any government be safe which was hated and betrayed by its own servants? |
2612 | Could it be contended that crimes which had been grave enough to justify resistance had not been grave enough to deserve punishment? |
2612 | Could nothing be done to remedy this evil? |
2612 | Could the Convention now assembled be turned into a Parliament? |
2612 | Had Bonner continued to be, to the end of his life, the only true Bishop of London? |
2612 | Had Parker and Jewel been schismatics? |
2612 | Had he made up his mind to take the part of Ireland against the universal sense of England? |
2612 | Had he not some of the qualities of an excellent prince? |
2612 | Had his successor been an usurper? |
2612 | Had not the unhappy man been rather weak and rash than wicked? |
2612 | Had that deprivation been null? |
2612 | Hamilton insisted that the question, should be,"Approve or not approve the rabbling?" |
2612 | He asks how it can be imagined that, while"they are maintained like gentlemen by the breach they will ever preach up healing doctrines?" |
2612 | How could right spring out of wrong? |
2612 | How else could it be that a market overt for plunder should be held within a short distance of the capital? |
2612 | How then was it possible for such a divine to deny that obedience had been due to Cromwell, and yet to affirm that it was due to William? |
2612 | How was power likely to be used by an uneducated and inexperienced man, agitated by strong desires and resentments which he mistook for sacred duties? |
2612 | How, they asked, was it possible to defend this project of amnesty without condemning the Revolution? |
2612 | If he left it, whither was he to go? |
2612 | If he were at heart inclined to persecution, would he not have persecuted the Irish Protestants? |
2612 | If so, to what could he look forward but another banishment and another deposition? |
2612 | If we lose them will not all the world cry shame upon us? |
2612 | In what state would the country then be left? |
2612 | Is every person a Papist who is willing to concede to the Bishop of Rome a primacy among Christian prelates? |
2612 | Is it meant that a person arraigned for high treason may tender evidence to prove that the Sovereign has married a Papist? |
2612 | Mais s''il estoit si adroit et si zele, comment as- tu pu trouver le moyen de le faire exclure du nombre des deputez?" |
2612 | Marforio asks:"Le Chancelier est donc mort dans la Tour?" |
2612 | May she not, in ceasing to give scandal to a few sour precisians, cease also to influence the hearts of many who now delight in her ordinances? |
2612 | Might not the most honest and the most intelligent men be in doubt whether they ought to regard him as their Sovereign? |
2612 | Nay, is it not well known that some of those persons boastfully affirmed that, if they had not abjured him, they never could have restored him? |
2612 | Or was the crown to be in abeyance till he came to an age at which he might be capable of choosing a religion? |
2612 | Or would he, when he had recovered the greater kingdom, revoke the boors by which, in his distress, he had purchased the help of the smaller? |
2612 | She would be in constant need of wise and upright counsel; and where was such counsel to be found? |
2612 | Swift wrote on the margin of his copy of Clarendon, in one place,"How old was he( James) when he turned Papist and a coward?" |
2612 | The doctrine of passive obedience being taken for granted, to whom was that obedience due? |
2612 | The question was put according to the Scottish form,"Approve or not approve the article?" |
2612 | The ranks were drawn up under arms; and the question was put,"Advance or Retreat?" |
2612 | To whom would allegiance be due? |
2612 | Was Christmas no longer to be a day of rejoicing? |
2612 | Was Passion week no longer to be a season of humiliation? |
2612 | Was he then to be proclaimed King? |
2612 | Was it ever heard of in war that the person of an enemy, a combatant in arms, was to be held inviolable on account of his name and descent? |
2612 | Was it not fit then that the Church of England should take warning? |
2612 | Was no indulgence to be granted to them if they now refused to do what they conscientiously apprehended to be wrong? |
2612 | Was not the order which Christ had established in his own house to be held equally sacred in all countries and through all ages? |
2612 | Was public opinion, then, the test of right and wrong in religion? |
2612 | Was the organ of Exeter to be silenced to please another? |
2612 | Was there ever, these zealots exclaimed, such a halting between two opinions, such a compromise between the Lord and Baal? |
2612 | Was this then the real sense of all those sublime phrases which had resounded during twenty- nine years from innumerable pulpits? |
2612 | Were all the village bells to be mute because Tribulation Wholesome and Deacon Ananias thought them profane? |
2612 | Were the laity no part of the Church of England? |
2612 | Were the windows of King''s College Chapel to be broken at the demand of one set of fanatics? |
2612 | Were they drunk? |
2612 | Were they traitors? |
2612 | What Amalekite had William smitten? |
2612 | What again is the legal effect of the words which absolve the subject from his allegiance? |
2612 | What at Oxford? |
2612 | What did it matter whether the Sixty were called prelates or not, if they were to lord it with more than prelatical authority over God''s heritage? |
2612 | What friends have you except the King and me?" |
2612 | What if the English right wing should get into the rear of the army of James? |
2612 | What if the Tower itself should be bombarded? |
2612 | What if the dockyards of Chatham should again be destroyed? |
2612 | What if the next heir should be a prince of the House of Savoy not three months old? |
2612 | What if the vast wood of masts and yardarms below London Bridge should be in ablaze? |
2612 | What if the victorious enemy should do what De Ruyter had done? |
2612 | What indeed is the value of any oath in such a matter? |
2612 | What is a Papist? |
2612 | What new laws of war were these? |
2612 | What orders were to be sent to Torrington? |
2612 | When indeed was the Roman Catholic Celt to fight if he did not fight on that day? |
2612 | Who had been more zealous for the dispensing power than Alsop? |
2612 | Who had more foully sold the religion and liberty of his country than Titus? |
2612 | Who had urged on the persecution of the seven Bishops more fiercely than Lobb? |
2612 | Who were entitled to be consulted? |
2612 | Why had this creature of James been entrusted with the business of catering for the army of William? |
2612 | Why have we not cut the boom in pieces? |
2612 | Why is not the same argument urged in favour of the layman? |
2612 | Why should his feelings, his prejudices, if prejudices they were, be less considered than the whims of schismatics? |
2612 | Why was chivalrous courtesy to be shown to foes who thought no stratagem immoral, and who had never given quarter? |
2612 | Why, it was asked, should not the cost of the Irish war be borne by the Irish insurgents? |
2612 | Why, they asked, were none but members of the sacerdotal order to be intrusted with this duty? |
2612 | Why, too, was nothing said of those Covenants which the nation had so generally subscribed and so generally violated? |
2612 | With what consistency then could he recommend that such crimes should be covered by a general oblivion? |
2612 | Would Mountjoy undertake this most honourable and important mission? |
2612 | Would it be pretended by any Tory that the Convention of 1660 had a more respectable origin than the Convention of 1689? |
2612 | Would thirty such men be easily found in the higher ranks of the clerical profession? |
2612 | Yet what could be done? |
2612 | Yet what other course would be left to him? |
2612 | he said;"or will your horse make more fight?" |
2612 | said one of the deputies;"Are we to sit still and let ourselves be butchered?" |
43817 | And dost thou mean, then, that thy paltry tale shall serve as a full answer to my query? |
43817 | And what said the judge? |
43817 | And why, doctor,returned Macklin, with an indescribable sort of comic frown,"why did you give the rascal_ so erroneous a notion of your courage_?" |
43817 | Is that the end of thy story? |
43817 | Look before you leap,said he, giving her a smart shake;"did you never hear that adage, you stupid creature?" |
43817 | Oh, very well,returned Macklin;"how will you answer this argument?" |
43817 | Well,said the band- man,"and what if I am?" |
43817 | And where shall be my rest?" |
43817 | Asked, in the tones of one with whom Fear never yet had been a guest--"And when doth Fate achieve my doom? |
43817 | Do you think that I sit here for the purpose of expounding riddles and reconciling contradictions? |
43817 | Does each of you love only himself? |
43817 | Dost thou mean to say that all religions are upon the same level in the sight of the God of Truth?" |
43817 | Dost thou tell me that the faith of the Mooslemin is not acknowledged by all right- thinking persons to be the true one?" |
43817 | Have I not been twelve times defeated by the enemy''s superior force? |
43817 | How can I ask of you to abandon the prepossessions of your fathers before you, and in which, true or false, you have been nurtured? |
43817 | How is this obstinacy of thine reconcilable with the wisdom and moderation for which the true believers give thee credit?" |
43817 | In whom, then, I would ask, is it most natural for us to place our trust? |
43817 | Is not that thy unhesitating persuasion?" |
43817 | Is thy parable ended?" |
43817 | Is your highness attentive?" |
43817 | Look at the granite hills of Quincy? |
43817 | Or do you, perhaps, expect that the true ring will by some miracle be compelled to bear oral testimony here in court to its own genuineness? |
43817 | There are, it is true, many modes of worship on the earth: but has not Islamism always remained a distinct system of faith from the false creeds? |
43817 | What sayest thou of these?" |
43817 | What was to be done? |
43817 | Where are the three hills which first met the view of the pilgrims as they sailed up its bay? |
43817 | Which of you three, then, is the greatest object of love to the other two? |
43817 | Your highness listens?" |
43817 | Your highness now, I trust, thoroughly comprehends my reason for not answering your question in a direct manner?" |
43817 | and_ when_? |
43817 | cried the king,"thou knowest, then, Seer, What yon strange oracle reveals?" |
43817 | demanded Sal- ad- Deen;"I presume the final decision of the question hung upon his arbitration?" |
43817 | does this ring, which should awaken love in all, act with an inward influence only, not an outward? |
43817 | he thought:--Life is a boon Given, and resumed-- but_ how_? |
43817 | interrupted the sultan indignantly,"this to me? |
46671 | For where should the Scots lerne policie and skill to defend themselues, if they had not their bringing vp and training in France? |

44864 | Pray, sir,says he,"have you any_ slow_ coach down this road to- day?" |
44864 | Then we shall have no more galloping-- no more springing them as you term it? |
44864 | Very fast? |
44864 | What coach, your honour? |
44864 | What did that rascally waiter mean by telling me this was a slow coach? 44864 What do you charge per mile posting?" |
44864 | What room in the Regulator? |
44864 | What will you take, sir? 44864 [ 10]"That''s the coach for me; pray what do you call it?" |
44864 | ''"And pray, my good sir, what sort of horses may you have over the next stage?" |
44864 | ''However, he is now seated; and"What_ gentleman_ is going to drive us?" |
44864 | But what does he see? |
44864 | Death and destruction before his eyes? |
44864 | Do you not mean the basket? |
44864 | Have you no coach that does not carry luggage on the top?" |
44864 | If among all these difficulties, then, he, by degrees, became a drunkard, who can wonder at his becoming so? |
44864 | Mutton- chops, veal- cutlets, beef- steaks, or a fowl( to kill?)" |
44864 | Pray, what''s that? |
44864 | Recovering, however, a little from his surprise--"My dear sir,"said he,"you told me we were to change horses at Hounslow? |
44864 | Smith?'' |
44864 | There was--''Now, ladies and gentlemen, what would you like to take? |
44864 | off the stones already?" |
44864 | this here''oss?" |

41978 | Do you believe in fairies? |
41978 | Do you mean four Irish miles? |
41978 | Do you suppose it was really the work of giants, children? |
41978 | How else could he have had the power to move every one by his words? 41978 Indade, whatever else could it be, sir? |
41978 | Is n''t it grand to be travelling like that, Katie? |

41978 | Can they go in the next letter to Maggie, mother?" |
41978 | DANIEL O''CONNELL"O Paddy, dear, and did you hear The news that''s going round? |
41978 | Did ye ever hear tell of the famine?" |
41978 | Did you ever hear of the Blarney Stone? |
41978 | Do you know what a giant is?" |
41978 | Do you know what peat is? |
41978 | Do you see the joke? |
41978 | Had he been asleep? |
41978 | Had he really found a way of defeating the fairies? |
41978 | How can I help my country?" |
41978 | How could any father refuse when children begged like that? |
41978 | Is it a true story? |
41978 | Is it any wonder that the generous people whom she visited always had something to give and a kind word to speak to her? |
41978 | Mollie says can I go with her for a day at Killarney?" |
41978 | Sure, what else could the good news be?" |
41978 | Then what? |
41978 | What do you suppose the king replied? |
41978 | What was the meaning of the fire? |
41978 | What will the money buy yez now? |
41978 | Who could have dared to disobey the king? |
41978 | Who could tell? |
41978 | Who would duck for the apples? |
41978 | was it all a dream, like that of Norah''s? |
41978 | where had she gone? |
46838 | When will builders come to realize that red- brick of all complexions is wholly out of place in a land of grey and green? |
46838 | Who shall decide where doctors disagree? |

46654 | Are you sure it''s round? |
46654 | Why do n''t you ship some of these teams to America? 46654 A dealer suddenly slapped me on the back and said,Why do n''t yer buy a foine pair for yersilf and take em to the States wid ye?" |
46654 | Standing on the shore, I asked a man,"Are there many lobsters here?" |
46654 | While riding along we noticed a tower on a distant hill, and said to the driver,"Is that a_ round_ tower?" |
46667 | 2. serm._] Maxima pars hominum morbo iactatur eodem? |
46667 | For Quid poterit iusta tutius esse fuga? |
46667 | The king asked of the maior what he thought of those articles? |
46667 | Where the question may be asked, whether this decrée was extended to préests wiues or no? |
46668 | And therefore being called afore the iustices about this matter, he appeared, and being asked"by what right he held his lands?" |
46668 | Iurgia, litès, Prælia dira moues,& gaudes sanguine fuso, Sordidior quæ res, quæ bellua vilior? |

45951 | What do you think of this agreement? |
45951 | What, Mr. Price,said he,"will you then bring my neck to the block for the King, and ruin our whole design by engaging too rashly?" |
45951 | At last the question was put,"That this House do approve the proceeding of Colonel Monk?" |
45951 | Did he intend to be mayor of the palace to a_ roi fainéant_? |
45951 | How could it then withstand the King? |
45951 | The only question was, would the great man condescend to accept the appointment? |
45951 | The whole question was, what Parliament did he mean to restore? |
45951 | To whom was the duty of his place? |
45951 | Was this the solution of Monk''s extraordinary conduct? |
45951 | What did it mean? |
45951 | What did the fleet mean to do? |
45951 | What was to prevent him suddenly joining hands with the rebels and turning with the whole army upon the Parliament? |
45951 | Who could tell he would stand staunch at that trying moment? |
45951 | cried Monk angrily,"do you lay the blame on me? |
43546 | All about lions and elephants? |
43546 | And he will be here for''Hogmanay;''wo n''t we have the fun? |
43546 | But if no one claims him I can keep him, ca n''t I? |
43546 | Ca n''t you see a castle yonder? |
43546 | Castles were always built on high hills, were they not? |
43546 | Did you ever see a finer pup than that? |
43546 | Do n''t you want to put your package in the luggage- rack? |
43546 | Do you see a heart carved on that stone yonder? |
43546 | Do you suppose, Sandy MacPherson, that I''d be carrying a rat around like this? 43546 Do you think that Uncle Clarke will get here in time?" |
43546 | How do you know? |
43546 | How would you like to see Holyrood Palace, where Queen Mary lived? |
43546 | Indeed he did, and you would like to see his old home, would n''t you, Don? |
43546 | Is n''t it strange what wee bits of rooms kings and queens lived in? 43546 Is n''t the piper splendid, father?" |
43546 | Sandy says that he does not believe that''Rob Roy''was a real person; but he was, and lived right here, did n''t he, Uncle Alan? |
43546 | Sandy, what on earth have you got in that bundle that you have been carrying so carefully ever since we left home? |
43546 | Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? 43546 Was she a real person, father?" |
43546 | Well, dearies, what do you think your mother would like? |
43546 | What on earth is it,--a rat? |
43546 | What''s the matter with the MacPhersons? |
43546 | What''s up? |
43546 | Where are those children? |
43546 | Where are we going now, uncle? |
43546 | Why did n''t he write to me, too? |
43546 | You know that lane which leads to the widow Calden''s house? 43546 *****Is that Robert Burns''s house?" |
43546 | Eh, lassies?" |
43546 | Not much was said for a time but"Please pass that,"and"Please pass this,"and"Is n''t this good?" |
43546 | Sandy, what do you think I have got here?" |
43546 | So it was, and when Marjorie opened it what do you suppose gravely walked out? |
43546 | The poor, wee bairn whined, and was so glad when I picked him up, I could not leave him there alone, could I?" |
43546 | They all look alike, having been painted by some bold artist from imagination; which seems a strange thing to have done, does it not? |
43546 | What was it all about? |
43546 | When is he coming? |
43546 | Whom do you think we shall have with us for the New Year?" |
43546 | Would you not think he would be cold, with his knees bared to the cold east wind which blows over the castle high up on its rock? |
43546 | and wo n''t we have a good time?" |
43546 | but he''s a bonnie one; who gave him to you, Don?" |
43546 | of England, but he is Edward I. of Scotland, because we never had another king by the name of Edward before him; is it not so, father?" |
43546 | suddenly said Donald, with his mouth full of shortbread,"I can train him to be a sheep- dog, ca n''t I? |
43546 | they are going to drill; ca n''t we stay and watch them awhile?" |
43546 | what do you think?" |
43546 | what is all this about?" |
46754 | And the Duke of York said further,''What said Marshal Turenne when some in vanity said that the enemies were afraid, for they entrenched themselves? |

46106 | Afterwards the question may properly be asked: What value can we ascribe to the Parliament as an element in the life of the nation? |
46106 | How did the clan- system of the tenth century pass, in the Lowlands, into the family- system of the twelfth? |
46106 | How far by the three hundred years of alliance with France? |
46106 | How far was constitutional development in Scotland affected by the short- lived union under Edward I? |
46106 | The St. James''s Gazette_ says_:--"One of the commonest questions asked us by people is,''Can you tell us of a good English dictionary?''.... |
46106 | To what circumstances are we to attribute this development? |
46106 | What was the precise nature of the threat implied in the warning that a man who neglected the king''s ordinances should lose his court for evermore? |
46106 | What was the real signification of these charters themselves, and what privileges did they confer? |
46106 | Who were the good men who formed the community of the kingdom, and on whose advice the kings granted charters and liberties? |
45611 | And if he did it with ten thousand torments, who shall be so hardie as to expostulate and reason why he so dooth? |
45611 | But what and he call it an horne, where am I then? |
45611 | The fox that saw him run so fast, asked him whither he made all that hast? |
45611 | Then said the king merilie to them; What sirs, be ye in bed so soone? |
45611 | Was not his first enterprise to obteine the crowne begun and incepted by the murther of diuerse noble, valiant true, and vertuous, personages? |
45611 | What mercie is in him that sleieth his trustie fréends as well as his extreame enimies? |
45611 | What preuaileth a handfull to a whole realme? |
45611 | What vertue is in him which was the confusion of his brother, and murtherer of his nephues? |
45611 | What will you make of them? |
45611 | Who can haue confidence in him which putteth diffidence in all men? |
45611 | maiore cachinno Concutitur; flet, si lachrymas aspexit amici; Frigescis? |
45611 | whom shall a man trust? |
46742 | Where are the small country gentry? |
46742 | But what of the Wiley, or Wylye? |
46742 | thou wanderer thro''the woods, How often has my spirit turned to thee? |
43061 | And what be they vur, then? |
43061 | Had you, Father, hid away In your heart, some load to bury, That you chose so long to stay, World- forgot and solitary? |
43061 | Have you got a''vizzyvizze''? |
43061 | Tell, when all the boughs were bare, Did you dread each dreary waking? 43061 Warm, b''aint it?" |
43061 | What be the use,said he,"of wasting the public money sending round men to talk about a dairy as do n''t know a cow from a elephant? |
43061 | What be the use,said one,"of they Drainage Commissioners, what charges we two and eightpence poundage for keeping the water off of we? |
43061 | ... Might anything be kept that was picked up? |
43061 | A monk from the old priory yonder,--an outlaw with blood upon his soul? |
43061 | A small boy in the audience, unawed even by a Bishop, instantly"... raised his head And abruptly said: How many legs has a caterpillar got?" |
43061 | And the girls? |
43061 | And when we risk our lives to save the cargo, who has a better right to a share of it than we?" |
43061 | As day grew''twixt dawn and dark Did the shy birds learn to love you? |
43061 | Did you mark the flashing white On the breast of earliest swallows, Or the wavering, yellow light On the cowslips in the hollows? |
43061 | Did you sometimes, in the night, Rise and quit your quiet shieling, Climbing up the grassy height With a still, expectant feeling? |
43061 | Do n''t you mind Lucy Passmore, as charmed your warts for you when you was a boy?" |
43061 | Do they dream, these snails? |
43061 | Do they in slumber enjoy again the midnight raid upon the marrow- bed, or cry havoc on the choicest lilies of the garden? |
43061 | Do visions of plump cabbages and brilliant dahlias flit through their molluscous minds? |
43061 | Hewing out your stony stair, Were you glad at thorn- buds breaking? |
43061 | In days to be will she"... start from her slumber When gusts shake the door?" |
43061 | Is it only fancy, or is there really a note of protest and impatience in their snatches of clear- cut speech? |
43061 | Perhaps they were the arbitrators-- who knows? |
43061 | Sang the silver- throated lark Out of sight in skies above you? |
43061 | Shall us get there by candle light? |
43061 | Should we be so ungracious, he asks, as to return no thanks at all because a gift turned out to be smaller than we expected? |
43061 | That small figure now, that dainty little golden- haired darling, for her what have the years in store? |
43061 | Was he a surly recluse, fond of solitude and silence? |
43061 | Was he the Father of the village, summoned from his cell to shrieve the dying, bless the dead? |
43061 | Was there ever such a drowsy sound? |
43061 | Were you ever tired-- or lazy? |
43061 | What have the years in store for that young fisherman? |
43061 | What is the sea without its sound? |
43061 | What of the girls? |
43061 | What would you? |
43061 | When the burning noontide sun Made the gorge grow hot and hazy Did you wish your work were done? |
43061 | When you sat beside your door In the dusk, you ancient man, you, Did the broad- leaved sycamore Wave and rustle low to fan you? |
43061 | Where the wind went whispering by Underneath pale stars that glisten, From the open, upper sky Did God speak, and did you listen?" |
43061 | Where will they be in twenty years? |
43061 | Who could render the swift changes of colour that wind and sun are weaving with their magical loom over the wide expanse? |
43061 | Who was he? |
43061 | Will days that are coming see one more stone set up in memory of a sailor lost at sea? |
43061 | Will his grave be here? |
29517 | And did n''t I just say as much? |
29517 | And did n''t that American, Pettitt, play here? |
29517 | And see there where those branches touch the water,she soon continued;"might not that have been the very place where poor Ophelia lost her life? |
29517 | And then,broke in Betty, her face literally radiant,"do n''t you know how Little John finally robbed them? |
29517 | Are n''t the trains funny, John? |
29517 | Are n''t we glad we came, and are n''t Mrs. Pitt and Barbara and Philip good to us? |
29517 | Are you sorry you proposed coming here? |
29517 | Are your vans any bigger? |
29517 | But did n''t they have any services at all in St. Paul''s Cathedral? |
29517 | But how----? |
29517 | But, Mother, is that really the same bench, and did Anne truly live here? |
29517 | Can we have some? |
29517 | Did Shakespeare fall over that stile when he was trying to climb it with the deer, and did they catch him then? |
29517 | Did n''t Dr. Johnson live near here, too, Mother? |
29517 | Did n''t I? 29517 Did n''t she die propped up on the floor in all her State robes?" |
29517 | Did n''t you say that this was where King Alfred had them write the''Anglo- Saxon Chronicle''? |
29517 | Did that stool belong to anybody? |
29517 | Do n''t these trains seem different from ours, Betty? |
29517 | Do you children remember those quaint little verses about Bow Bells? |
29517 | Do you see that the walls are entirely of cedar wood from floor to ceiling? 29517 Do you suppose that jewels were sewn into the dress where those round holes are?" |
29517 | Do you think you will like London? |
29517 | Does n''t that describe it exactly? |
29517 | Have Kew Gardens any story or history to them, or are they just famous because of their flowers? |
29517 | Have n''t we time to walk in the gardens a little longer? |
29517 | Have you ever seen Faneuil Hall Market in Boston? |
29517 | He did pay him back after all, did n''t he? 29517 He lived here, did he? |
29517 | Here we are, Mother; did they come? |
29517 | Honor bright, do n''t you have many fires over here? |
29517 | How do they ever find names enough to go around? |
29517 | How in the world could they see to cook in such a dark place? |
29517 | Is Dorothy at home? |
29517 | Is n''t the''Tumble- down Stile''near here, Mother? |
29517 | Is n''t there a proverb,''A loyal heart may be landed at Traitor''s Gate''? |
29517 | Is n''t there any of it remaining? |
29517 | Is n''t there any upstairs? |
29517 | It could n''t be, could it? 29517 It is n''t any wonder that she looked like that, is it? |
29517 | It was here in Nottingham that Will Stutely had his narrow escape, was n''t it? |
29517 | It''s like Leicester''s Hospital at Warwick, only this is really more quaint, is n''t it? 29517 Let''s see,--that would be twenty- five dollars, would n''t it? |
29517 | Oh, do you see that little river flowing through the meadows? |
29517 | Oh, is that the John Gilpin in Cowper''s poem? |
29517 | Oh, what''s this place? |
29517 | Shall I point out the different flowers? |
29517 | The fellow who burnt the cakes? |
29517 | The name is curious, is n''t it? |
29517 | This one here pictures the Seven Ages of Man, which Shakespeare describes in''As You Like It,''Do you see? 29517 Was it because so many monks went up there?" |
29517 | Was there a real palace in the Tower? |
29517 | Well, what do you think of it all, John? |
29517 | Well, what do you think of that? |
29517 | What did they do to those three Normans? |
29517 | What for? 29517 What in the world does she mean?" |
29517 | What in the world''s that? |
29517 | What is that iron bar for? |
29517 | What others? |
29517 | What should you like to see first, Betty? |
29517 | What sticks? 29517 What was it?" |
29517 | What was that you said? |
29517 | What went on here? |
29517 | What''s that, Mother? 29517 What''s the use? |
29517 | Where are we going now? |
29517 | Where can one see such a scene? |
29517 | Where do you mean to go, Philip? |
29517 | Where was King Alfred buried, Mother? |
29517 | Who was it that the guide told us was imprisoned near the Round Tower, and who fell in love with a lady whom he saw walking in the gardens? 29517 Whose keys?" |
29517 | Why do they always stand there? |
29517 | Why, do n''t you believe it, John? |
29517 | Why, we ca n''t all get in there, can we? |
29517 | Why, what can it be? |
29517 | Why, what do you mean? |
29517 | Why, what in the world''s the matter? |
29517 | Will they put King Edward here, too, when he dies? |
29517 | Will you please tell us what that was? 29517 Winchester has a cathedral, has n''t it?" |
29517 | Would n''t you just know to look at her that she had been in the family all her life? |
29517 | Would you rather be a Horse Guard, or a bus- driver, John? |
29517 | Yes,said Mrs. Pitt, understanding at once;"do n''t you remember that in Scott''s''Ivanhoe''? |
29517 | ''There is a willow grows aslant a brook, That shows his hoar leaves in the glassy stream;''Is n''t that a perfect description of this very spot? |

29517 | Anne Hathaway''s cottage is even more picturesque than its neighbors, or does this only seem so because of the associations which it has for all? |
29517 | Are n''t they attractive?" |
29517 | Are n''t they interesting? |

29517 | Do you notice the fine carving, and the pictures,--some of Van Dyck''s best works? |
29517 | Do you notice? |
29517 | Do you remember him? |
29517 | Do you remember, Betty? |
29517 | Do you see them, John?" |
29517 | Do you see? |
29517 | Do you suppose he guessed that you''d lost yours?" |
29517 | Do you, Barbara? |
29517 | Each time this conversation follows:--"Who goes there?" |
29517 | Have you never read it, John? |
29517 | Have you noticed those little oriel windows of the gatehouse? |
29517 | Have you the guidebook, Philip? |
29517 | He must have fine stories to tell, does n''t he, Philip? |
29517 | How carefully and how often do you suppose she swept? |
29517 | How did you like the State Apartments? |
29517 | How many have ever read Dickens''s''Tale of Two Cities''? |
29517 | How would you like that?" |
29517 | How would you like that?" |
29517 | I always wish that we could see the King or Queen''s private rooms, do n''t you? |
29517 | I never ran faster in my life, did you, Philip? |
29517 | I should probably go up and say''How do you do?''" |
29517 | In spite of this, she insisted that she was quite happy, for she had her"good feather bed,"--and what more could she need? |
29517 | Is n''t the effect rich, and does n''t it smell good? |
29517 | Is that the tale?" |
29517 | Is that the trouble, Jo? |
29517 | Is this where we take the tram, Mrs. Pitt? |
29517 | It was the wedding night of Dorothy''s sister, was n''t it? |
29517 | It''s a quaint place, is n''t it? |
29517 | It''s curious to think of, is n''t it?" |
29517 | Just for one little hour we are going to know that Anne did live here,--that Will said''Will you?'' |
29517 | May we go up, please?" |
29517 | Now, how do you like that story?" |
29517 | Oh, do you suppose it is the same place?" |
29517 | Oh, here''s the old Coronation Chair, is n''t it?" |
29517 | Pitt?" |
29517 | Pitt?" |
29517 | Pitt?" |
29517 | Pitt?" |
29517 | Pitt?" |
29517 | That''s an odd expression, is n''t it? |
29517 | There they halted and imagined him standing beside his booth, and calling out:"Now who''ll buy? |
29517 | They called it the Waterloo Room, did n''t they? |
29517 | They do n''t know just where he went, do they, Mother?" |
29517 | They do n''t make much fuss about it, do they?" |
29517 | Was n''t she a singer? |
29517 | Was n''t that absurd? |
29517 | Was n''t there one more, Barbara? |
29517 | What are you thinking, Mrs. Pitt? |
29517 | What do you all say?" |
29517 | What does it mean?" |
29517 | What for?" |
29517 | What of the sight- seers whose automobiles go tearing along, uttering weird and frightful sounds? |
29517 | What would ye have of me?'' |
29517 | What''s wrong?" |
29517 | What''s your favorite part of the castle, Barbara?" |
29517 | Where will you go, Betty?" |
29517 | Who was she? |
29517 | Why did they call it the White Tower? |
29517 | Why, what is it, Barbara?" |
29517 | Why, what''s the matter, John?" |
29517 | With all his money, could n''t he even have a horse?" |
29517 | Would you like to hear? |
29517 | Yes, what''s that you have found, Barbara?" |
29517 | Yes? |
29517 | You certainly like that in him, John?" |
29517 | You remember, do n''t you, having the guide point out London Bridge to you, from the top of St. Paul''s, day before yesterday? |

45065 | And of the half- dozen anecdotes which have in one way or other descended to us of his words and ways, who can say that any detail is true? |
45065 | And when Ullswater is reached, what more charming nook can there be than Patterdale, deep set among the hills? |
45065 | But whither shall we direct our steps? |
45065 | Is this thy body''s end? |
45065 | Por here were crowned several Saxon monarchs; is there not the coronation- stone in the market- place, engraven with their names? |
45065 | Shall worms, inheritors of thine excess, Eat up thy charge? |
45065 | Should a morning at Keswick be unemployed, or if the question should arise in the interval of wider explorations:"What shall I do to- day?" |
45065 | Then who shall say whether the view from Helvellyn, Skiddaw, or Scafell is the most marvellous in its beauty? |
45065 | Then, higher up than Oxford, who knows the Thames? |
45065 | Thus? |
45065 | Was ever town so rich in court and tower To woo and win stray moonlight every hour?" |
45065 | Were ever haunts so meet for summer breeze, Or pensive walk in evening''s golden air? |
45065 | What can be more perfectly beautiful than the view''s from the hill- sides above the head of Coniston Water? |
45065 | What do I want more? |
45065 | What, then, is the defect which will for ever prevent Shakspere from receiving the entire homage of the heart of man? |
45065 | Who can even tell where it arises, and through what district it flows? |
45065 | Why should they have taken for granted that the power was evil? |
45065 | Why so large cost, having so short a lease, Dost thou upon thy fading mansion spend? |
45065 | were ever river banks so fair, Gardens so fit for nightingales as these? |
45065 | where''s my mother?_ As if such tender words and looks could come from any other! |
15198 | A war? |
15198 | After all, what are the matters we dispute with so much warmth? |
15198 | Am I not to avail myself of whatever good is to be found in the world, because of the mixture of evil that will always be in it? |
15198 | And pray, Sir, what in the world is equal to it? |
15198 | And why should it be rejected, or even coldly and suspiciously received? |
15198 | Are not the people of America as much Englishmen as the Welsh? |
15198 | Are the Americana not as numerous? |
15198 | Are they yet restored to it? |
15198 | Are you to build no houses, because desperate men may pull them down upon their own heads? |
15198 | But are the leaders of their faction more lenient to those who submit? |
15198 | But for what end was that bill to linger beyond the usual period of an unopposed measure? |
15198 | But how are the principles of any of these subdivisions applicable in the case before us? |
15198 | But how should I appear to the_ voters_ themselves? |
15198 | But how stands the matter in the mere attempt? |
15198 | But how? |
15198 | But if you stopped your grants, what would be the consequence? |
15198 | But is it altogether wise to have no other bounds to your impositions than the patience of those who are to bear them? |
15198 | But is it really true that government is always to be strengthened with the instruments of war, but never furnished with the means of peace? |
15198 | But of what service is this observation to the cause of those that make it? |
15198 | But suppose the requisitions are not obeyed? |
15198 | But the question is not, whether their spirit deserves praise or blame,--what, in the name of God, shall we do with it? |
15198 | But there is another serious part( what is not so?) |
15198 | But were the Americans, then, not touched and grieved by the taxes, in some measure, merely as taxes? |
15198 | But what has been the real condition of the old office of Secretary of State? |
15198 | But what skill can members of Parliament obtain in that low kind of province? |
15198 | But what will you feel, when you know from history how this statute passed, and what were the motives, and what the mode of making it? |
15198 | But what( says the financier) is peace to us without money? |
15198 | But your legislative authority is perfect with regard to America: was it less perfect in Wales, Chester, and Durham? |
15198 | But, after all, are we equally sure that they are adverse to our Constitution as that our statutes are hostile and destructive to them? |
15198 | But, it will be said, is not this American trade an unnatural protuberance, that has drawn the juices from the rest of the body? |
15198 | Can they do more, or can they do worse, if we yield this point? |
15198 | Did any of the several East India bills which have been successively produced since 1767 originate there? |
15198 | Did any one dream of referring them, or any part of them, thither? |
15198 | Did he cite this culprit before his tribunal? |
15198 | Did he make a charge? |
15198 | Did he produce witnesses? |
15198 | Did it not lie against the reappointment, in the year 1780, upon the very same terms? |
15198 | Did they toss it over the table? |
15198 | Do not gentlemen know that the crown has not at present the grant of a single office under the Company, civil or military, at home or abroad? |
15198 | Do they answer any purpose to the king? |
15198 | Do they find any equality in all this? |
15198 | Do they not at this instant call the present war and all its horrors a lenient and merciful proceeding? |
15198 | Do they think that the service is stinted for want of liberal supplies? |
15198 | Do we in these resolutions_ bestow_ anything upon Ireland? |
15198 | Do we not know for certain, that the Americans are going on as fast as possible, whilst we refuse to gratify them? |
15198 | Do you forget that in the very last year you stood on the precipice of general bankruptcy? |
15198 | Do you imagine, then, that it is the Land- Tax Act which raises your revenue? |
15198 | Do you mean to tax America, and to draw a productive revenue from thence? |
15198 | Do you remember our commission? |
15198 | Do you, after this, wonder that you have no weight and no respect in the colonies? |
15198 | Does any one who hears me approve this scheme of things, or think there is common justice, common sense, or common honesty in any part of it? |
15198 | Does evil so react upon good, as not only to retard its motion, but to change its nature? |
15198 | Does it arrogate too much to the supreme legislature? |
15198 | Does it lean too much to the claims of the people? |
15198 | Does the poor solitary tea- duty support the purposes of this preamble? |
15198 | Does this sort of chicanery become us? |
15198 | Else why all these changes, modifications, repeals, assurances, and resolutions? |
15198 | Else why were the duties first reduced to one third in 1764, and afterwards to a third of that third in the year 1766? |
15198 | Else, what is it more than to avow to them, and to the world, that you guard them from others only to make them a prey to yourself? |
15198 | For on what grounds can you deliberate either before or after the proposition? |
15198 | For on what principle does it stand? |
15198 | For what can be discovered which is not to their disgrace? |
15198 | For what end does Necker carry on this delusion? |
15198 | For what is it but a scheme for taxing the colonies in the antechamber of the noble lord and his successors? |
15198 | For what is it they would have? |
15198 | Gentlemen, was I not to foresee, or foreseeing, was I not to endeavor to save you from all these multiplied mischiefs and disgraces? |
15198 | Has it not hitherto been true in the colonies? |
15198 | Has seven years''struggle been yet able to force them? |
15198 | Has the Company ever troubled themselves to inquire whether their sales can bear the payment of that interest, and at that rate of exchange? |
15198 | Has the disorder abated? |
15198 | Has this been the law of our past, or is it to be the terms of our future connection? |
15198 | Have their velvet bags and their red boxes been so full that nothing more could possibly be crammed into them? |
15198 | Have these successes induced us to alter our mind, as thinking the season of victory not the time for treating with honor or advantage? |
15198 | Have they ever attended to this principle? |
15198 | Have we an example on record of a House of Commons punished for its servility? |
15198 | Have you attempted to govern America by penal statutes? |
15198 | He has said that the Americans are our children, and how can they revolt against their parent? |
15198 | Here is a new species of crime invented, that of countenancing a belief,--but a belief of what? |
15198 | How did that fact, of their paying nothing, stand, when the taxing system began? |
15198 | How long it will continue in this state, or what may arise out of this unheard- of situation, how can the wisest of us conjecture? |
15198 | How much have you lost by the participation of Scotland in all your commerce? |
15198 | How, then, can I think it sufficient for those which are infinitely greater, and infinitely more remote? |
15198 | If both were bad, why has this ministry incurred all the inconveniences of both and of all schemes? |
15198 | If froward men should refuse this cure, can they vitiate anything but themselves? |
15198 | If it be a crime, why is it delivered into private hands to pardon without discretion, or to punish without mercy and without measure? |
15198 | If so, why were they almost all either wholly repealed or exceedingly reduced? |
15198 | If that sovereignty and their freedom can not be reconciled, which will they take? |
15198 | If the Board was not concerned in such things, in what particular was it thought fit that it should be concerned? |
15198 | If the insolvency be no crime, why is it punished with arbitrary imprisonment? |
15198 | If the principle of the repeal was not good, why are we not at war for a real, substantial, effective revenue? |
15198 | If this be the case, ask yourselves this question: Will they be content in such a state of slavery? |
15198 | If we repent of our good actions, what, I pray you, is left for our faults and follies? |
15198 | If we should be able, by dexterity, or power, or intrigue, to disappoint the expectations of our constituents, what will it avail us? |
15198 | In all the articles of American contraband trade, who ever heard of the smuggling of red lead and white lead? |
15198 | In this perplexity, what shall we do, Sir, who are willing to submit to the law he gives us? |
15198 | In what manner is the dignity of the nobility concerned in these principalities? |
15198 | In what year of our Lord are the proportions of payments to be settled? |
15198 | Is America in rebellion? |
15198 | Is Ireland united to the crown of Great Britain for no other purpose than that we should counteract the bounty of Providence in her favor? |
15198 | Is a politic act the worse for being a generous one? |
15198 | Is all authority of course lost, when it is not pushed to the extreme? |
15198 | Is it a certain maxim, that, the fewer causes of dissatisfaction are left by government, the more the subject will be inclined to resist and rebel? |
15198 | Is it a way of soothing_ others_, to assure them that you will take good care of_ yourself_? |
15198 | Is it for this that we are at war,--and in such a war? |
15198 | Is it not the same virtue which does everything for us here in England? |
15198 | Is it not true in Ireland? |
15198 | Is it on that ground that our anger is to be kindled by their offered kindness? |
15198 | Is it on that ground that they are to be subjected to penalties, because they are willing by actual merit to purge themselves from imputed crimes? |
15198 | Is it quite fair to suppose that I have no other motive for yielding to them but a desire of acting_ against_ my constituents? |
15198 | Is it the force of the kingdom they call for? |
15198 | Is it to lower the estimation of the crown he serves, and to render his own administration contemptible? |
15198 | Is it true that no case can exist in which it is proper for the sovereign to accede to the desires of his discontented subjects? |
15198 | Is no concession proper, but that which is made from your want of right to keep what you grant? |
15198 | Is not the supply there stated as effectually abandoned as if the tea- duty had perished in the general wreck? |
15198 | Is the Company so much as a good commissary to their own armies? |
15198 | Is there anything peculiar in this case, to make a rule for itself? |
15198 | Is this collusion from its want of rigor and strictness and great regularity of form? |
15198 | Is this description too hot or too cold, too strong or too weak? |
15198 | Is this done? |
15198 | Is this equality? |
15198 | Is this equality? |
15198 | Is this principle to be true in England and false everywhere else? |
15198 | Is this true? |
15198 | My sole question, on each clause of the bill, amounts to this:--Is the measure proposed required by the necessities of India? |
15198 | Nay, for years have they not actually authorized in their servants a total indifference as to the prices they were to pay? |
15198 | Now where is the revenue which is to do all these mighty things? |
15198 | Now, Sir, what will the adversary say to both these acts? |
15198 | Shall that reason not be given? |
15198 | Should he name his adversaries? |
15198 | Should he name those to execute his plans who are the declared enemies to the principles of his reform? |
15198 | Should he name those whom he can not trust? |
15198 | Spurn it as a derogation from the rights of legislature? |
15198 | The colleagues whom he had assorted at the same boards stared at each other, and were obliged to ask,--"Sir, your name?" |
15198 | The question now, on all this accumulated matter, is,--Whether you will choose to abide by a profitable experience or a mischievous theory? |
15198 | They will ask, What conduct ends in neglect, disgrace, poverty, exile, prison, and gibbet? |
15198 | They will ask, What is the road to power, credit, wealth, and honors? |
15198 | To what do you attribute the strong part taken by the ministers, and, along with the ministers, by several of their most declared opponents? |
15198 | To what end, Sir, does the office of_ removing wardrobe_ serve at all? |
15198 | To what service is it applied? |
15198 | To whom, then does the example of an execution in England for this American rebellion apply? |
15198 | To whom, then, would I make the East India Company accountable? |
15198 | Treat it as an affront to government? |
15198 | Was I an Irishman on that day that I boldly withstood our pride? |
15198 | Was anybody so ridiculous as even to think of it? |
15198 | Was it to be adjourned until a fanatical force could be collected in London, sufficient to frighten us out of all our ideas of policy and justice? |
15198 | Was it to be delayed until a rabble in Edinburgh should dictate to the Church of England what measure of persecution was fitting for her safety? |
15198 | Were they instantly restored to trade? |
15198 | Were they not named as commissioners for that express purpose? |
15198 | Were they not touched and grieved by the Stamp Act? |
15198 | Were they not touched and grieved even by the regulating duties of the sixth of George the Second? |
15198 | What advances have we made towards our object, by the sending of a force, which, by land and sea, is no contemptible strength? |
15198 | What advantage have we derived from the penal laws we have passed, and which, for the time, have been severe and numerous? |
15198 | What did Parliament with this audacious address?--Reject it as a libel? |
15198 | What does it signify to promote economy upon a measure, and to suffer it to be subverted in the principle? |
15198 | What does it signify to turn abuses out of one door, if we are to let them in at another? |
15198 | What does the gentleman say to it? |
15198 | What equality? |
15198 | What is it we have got by all our menaces, which have been many and ferocious? |
15198 | What is the gross, what is the net produce? |
15198 | What is to become of the Declaratory Act, asserting the entireness of British legislative authority, if we abandon the practice of taxation? |
15198 | What more can you say of the obedience to any laws in any country? |
15198 | What need I say more? |
15198 | What obligation lay on me to be popular? |
15198 | What partiality, what objects of the politics of the House of Lancaster, or of Cromwell, has his present Majesty, or his Majesty''s family? |
15198 | What pleasure can they have in the execution of that kind of duty? |
15198 | What power have they within any of these principalities, which they have not within their kingdom? |
15198 | What rights have the subject there, which they have not at least equally in every other part of the nation? |
15198 | What signify all those titles and all those arms? |
15198 | What sort of article, think you, does he require this essential head of a solemn treaty of general pacification to be? |
15198 | What then? |
15198 | What then? |
15198 | What was the consequence? |
15198 | What was the consequence? |
15198 | What will be thought, when you have fully before you the mode of accounting made use of in the Treasury of Bengal? |
15198 | What will quiet these panic fears which we entertain of the hostile effect of a conciliatory conduct? |
15198 | What will you do? |
15198 | When they bear the burdens of unlimited monopoly, will you bring them to bear the burdens of unlimited revenue too? |
15198 | Where could any man, conscious of his own inability to act alone, and willing to act as he ought to do, have arranged himself better? |
15198 | Which of the innumerable regulations since made had their origin or their improvement in the Board of Trade? |
15198 | Who are you, that should fret and rage, and bite the chains of Nature? |
15198 | Who has ever heard of capitulation, and parole of honor, and exchange of prisoners in the late rebellions in this kingdom? |
15198 | Who has presented, who can present, you with a clew to lead you out of it? |
15198 | Who has said one word on this labyrinth of detail, which bewilders you more and more as you enter into it? |
15198 | Whom should he name? |
15198 | Why do not the commissioners restore them on the spot? |
15198 | Why should I, when the things charged are among those upon which I found all my reputation? |
15198 | Why should a_ jewel office_ exist for the sole purpose of taxing the king''s gifts of plate? |
15198 | Why should an office of the_ robes_ exist, when that of_ groom, of the stole_ is a sinecure, and that this is a proper object of his department? |
15198 | Why should you presume, that, in any country, a body duly constituted for any function will neglect to perform its duty, and abdicate its trust? |
15198 | Why? |
15198 | Why? |
15198 | Why? |
15198 | Will not this, Sir, very soon teach the provinces to make no distinctions on their part? |
15198 | Will these gentlemen of the direction animadvert on the partners of their own guilt? |
15198 | Will they tell us what they call indulgences? |
15198 | Will you lay new and heavier taxes by Parliament on the disobedient? |
15198 | Will you tax the tobacco of Virginia? |
15198 | Would twenty shillings have ruined Mr. Hampden''s fortune? |
15198 | You will force them? |
15198 | [ 35] For what plausible reason are these principalities suffered to exist? |
15198 | and in proportion as that bounty has been liberal, that we are to regard it as an evil, which is to be met with in every sort of corrective? |
15198 | does it not formally reject all future taxation on that principle? |
15198 | does it not state the ministerial rejection of such principle of taxation, not as the occasional, but the constant opinion of the king''s servants? |
15198 | does not this letter adopt and sanctify the American distinction of_ taxing for a revenue_? |
15198 | does the electric force of virtual representation more easily pass over the Atlantic than pervade Wales, which lies in your neighborhood? |
15198 | or on the day that I hung down my head, and wept in shame and silence over the humiliation of Great Britain? |
15198 | or than Chester and Durham, surrounded by abundance of representation that is actual and palpable? |
15198 | or that it is the Mutiny Bill which inspires it with bravery and discipline? |

15198 | that you are obeyed solely from respect to the bayonet? |
15198 | what substitute? |
15198 | what will become of the preamble, if you repeal this tax?" |
15198 | when will this speculating against fact and reason end? |
15198 | where? |
15198 | whether you choose to build on imagination or fact? |
15198 | whether you prefer enjoyment or hope? |
15198 | why have they enacted, repealed, enforced, yielded, and now attempt to enforce again? |
41146 | Among men equally conspicuous in letters and the Senate, what names outshine those of Burke and Sheridan, Canning, Brougham, and Macaulay? 41146 And was he excused?" |
41146 | Come, Mashtub,said Brummell, who was the_ caster_,"what do you_ set_?" |
41146 | Did you call for coffee, Sir? |
41146 | I want to know, Sir, and that without one moment''s delay, Sir, if I am_ chose_ yet? |
41146 | It''s very fine to say,''Subscribe To Andrews''--can''t you read? 41146 Well, then,"replied the duellist,"did_ you_ black- ball me?" |
41146 | Well,said Douglas Jerrold,"how much does---- want this time?" |
41146 | What noise is that? |
41146 | What would you have me do? |
41146 | Who, Sir? |
41146 | [ 31] There is another version of the epigram on Tom Onslow:--Say, what can Tommy Onslow do? |
41146 | ''When_ will_ you dine at home, my dove?'' |
41146 | ''_ He''ll be of us!_''growled he;''how does he know we will_ permit_ him? |
41146 | --"Are you?" |
41146 | --"My good Sir,"answered the Admiral,"how could you suppose such a thing?" |
41146 | --"Why should you wish any such thing?" |
41146 | A friend, who knew my inexperience, and regarded me as a victim decked out for sacrifice, called to me,''What, Wilberforce, is that you?'' |
41146 | A member of this society having been met in mourning when one of the reigning family had died, was asked by one of the members how it so happened? |
41146 | A pretty bit of red ribbon to hang about your neck; and that satisfies you, does it? |
41146 | And in the_ Beaux''Stratagem_, Aimwell asks of Gibbet,"Ha''n''t I seen your face at White''s?" |
41146 | Besides, what is a turbot?" |
41146 | Brookes?" |
41146 | But on what terms did Cibber live with this society? |
41146 | But, it may be asked, how came the Society to associate so freely pleasure with graver pursuits? |
41146 | Can Tommy Onslow do no more? |
41146 | Can Tommy Onslow do no more? |
41146 | Can anything be more paltry than that bay- window from which the members of White''s contemplate the cabstand and the Wellington Tavern? |
41146 | Can little T. O. do no more? |
41146 | Did you see that man who has just gone out? |
41146 | Dryden, some twenty years after the above date, asks:"What right has any man to meet in factious Clubs to vilify the Government?" |
41146 | Fitzgerald now went up to each individual member, and put the same question_ seriatim_,"Did you black- ball me, Sir?" |
41146 | Fitzroy Stanhope, Colonel Spicer, Colonel Sibthorpe,_ cum multis aliis_, been thrown away upon persons who have looked up to them as protectors? |
41146 | George Selwyn says,''What a horrid idea he will give us of the people in Newgate?''" |
41146 | Have you ever been concerned with any of them? |
41146 | He could not help continually asking questions about it-- what was going on there?--whether he was ever the subject of conversation? |
41146 | Is it older than Gifford?" |
41146 | Now, I wonder what I shall have.--What do you think they will give me, Sir Philip?" |
41146 | The tax on_ malt_''s the cause I hear-- But what has_ malt_ to do with_ beer_?" |
41146 | Thomas Kenyon, Sir Henry Parnell, and Mr. Maddox? |
41146 | Was he dead or not? |
41146 | Was it not admirable? |
41146 | Was there a watchman took his hourly rounds Safe from their blows, or new- invented wounds? |
41146 | We see the eyes and the nose moving with convulsive twitches; we see the heavy form rolling; we hear it puffing; and then comes the''Why, Sir?'' |
41146 | What a favourable idea people must have of White''s!--and what if White''s should not deserve a much better?" |
41146 | What would the Devonshire road have been, but for the late Sir Charles Bamfylde, Sir John Rogers, Colonel Prouse, Sir Lawrence Palk, and others? |
41146 | Who has not heard the Scourer''s midnight fame? |
41146 | Who has not trembled at the Mohock''s name? |
41146 | and the''What then, Sir?'' |
41146 | are the weak endeavours of a few to oppose the daily inroads of fricassees and soup- maigres?" |
41146 | exclaimed Thrale, with surprise:"Mr. Garrick-- your friend, your companion-- black- ball him?" |
41146 | what can thee withstand? |
41146 | what is a turbot?" |
46429 | Does it not contain,says the proud inhabitant,"nearly fifteen thousand souls?" |
46429 | An obelisk, surmounted by a crown, and placed upon four stone balls, stands near the harbour entrance, and commemorates-- what? |
46429 | Beyond this-- what? |
46429 | But, reader, what would you? |
46429 | For what is Youghal famous, say the untravelled? |
46429 | How could it be? |
46429 | In the House of Commons he asked:"Was it necessary to dread any dire political consequences from the spread of the Celtic renaissance? |
46429 | Is this Irish humour, or is it an indication of Irish poverty? |
46429 | Swift was born in Dublin at a house in Hoey''s Court, now(?) |
46429 | The king''s coming? |
46429 | Whether this be acceptable to the average reader or not, whether he remarks the similarity between certain of the Celtic(?) |
46429 | Who does not know the famous Irish linen? |
46429 | Without potatoes and tobacco, what might not have happened to the British race long before now? |
45709 | Do I not know my Lord Marquis of Montrose? 45709 Why are we lingering here, my dear lord,"he said aloud,"when our friend Macdonald is driving the enemy before him on the right? |
45709 | Why,sneered this brutal fellow,"is James Graham so careful of his locks?" |
45709 | And what was to come of it? |
45709 | But now that the bishops had gone, by whom was this influence to be exercised? |
45709 | But what army commanded by a debating club ever escaped discomfiture and disgrace?" |
45709 | But what was the danger, and from what quarter did it come? |
45709 | But who would undertake to account for those who should be his friends? |
45709 | Doth it not often happen to the righteous according to the way of the unrighteous? |
45709 | Doth not sometimes a just man perish in his righteousness, and a wicked man prosper in his wickedness and malice? |
45709 | Had they not all, but the other day, signed a humble petition to his majesty in the character of his most loyal and obedient subjects? |
45709 | How was this unhappy country to be saved, and who could save it? |
45709 | It may then be asked why he did not use his influence to dissuade his relative from a partnership he was too prudent himself to join? |
45709 | Shall all the glory of the day be his?" |
45709 | Was the plan he had been urging for the last twelve months on unheeding ears still practicable? |
45709 | What man among them would venture to call his sovereign an enemy? |
45709 | What then? |
45709 | Which side was a young man of his rank, position, and temper likely to take in the approaching conflict? |
45709 | Would he be more successful now? |
10352 | And how shall we regain our honour, or retrieve our wealth, by engaging in another war more dangerous but less necessary? |
10352 | And if it be an act of generosity, why should this nation alone be obliged to sacrifice her own interest to that of others? |
10352 | And if it shall appear to us that our thanks are merited, who shall restrain us from offering them in the most publick and solemn manner? |
10352 | And may not he be left to suffer the consequences of his own confession? |
10352 | And may not that suspicion deprive him of the benefit of the act? |
10352 | And what then are we required to do more than has been always done by our ancestors, on a thousand occasions of far less importance? |
10352 | And whether they are_ as much to be depended upon_? |
10352 | And why may not the captain of the vessel procure necessaries for money, without the assistance of a commissioner? |
10352 | And why we have suffered their privateers in the mean time to rove at large over the ocean, and insult us upon our own coasts? |
10352 | And why we robbed our merchants of their crews by rigorous impresses, without employing them either to guard our trade, or subdue our enemies? |
10352 | And will not life and death, liberty and imprisonment, be placed in the hands of a committee of the commons? |
10352 | And will not this be an extortion of evidence equivalent to the methods practised in the most despotick governments, and the most barbarous nations? |
10352 | Are not our ships to pass a single league beyond their limits, in the honour or preservation of their country? |
10352 | Are they to lie unactive within the sound of the battle, and wait for their enemies on this side the cape? |
10352 | Are we sure of one positive active ally in the world? |
10352 | But for those what regard has hitherto been shown? |
10352 | But how is our present conduct agreeable to these principles? |
10352 | But how much greater means for such a purpose, would an alternative like this afford? |
10352 | But how, my lords, shall that monarch distinguish the interest of his people, whom none shall dare to approach with information? |
10352 | But of the present scheme, what effect can be expected but ignominy and shame, disgrace abroad, and beggary at home? |
10352 | But what advantages can our ministers boast of having obtained in twenty years by the means of their intelligence? |
10352 | But what securities, my lords, are provided against the same evil in the bill before us? |
10352 | But when this law is repealed, and every street and alley has a shop licensed to distribute this delicious poison, what can we expect? |
10352 | But when, my lords, did any two actions, however common, agree in every circumstance? |
10352 | But, my lords, in order to discover whether this consequence be necessary, it must first be inquired why the present law is of no force? |
10352 | But, my lords, let us at last inquire to what it is to be imputed, that the present law swells the statute book to no purpose? |
10352 | Can duties be paid without consumption of the commodity on which they are laid? |
10352 | Did they not even refuse to march? |
10352 | Did they suffer the queen of Hungary to be oppressed, only to show their own power and affluence by relieving her? |
10352 | Do you intend to support the Pragmatick sanction? |
10352 | First, whether they are_ as cheap_ as any other forces we can hire? |
10352 | For how can any one prove that he has a claim to the indemnity? |
10352 | For how can it be conceived that the Spaniards could have formed any real design of besieging port Mahon? |
10352 | For to what purpose will it be to require their presence at a time at which we know it is impossible for them to comply with our orders? |
10352 | For what end auxiliaries are hired, and why our armies are transported into Flanders? |
10352 | For what, my lords, encourages any man to a crime but security from punishment, or what tempts him to the commission of it but frequent opportunity? |
10352 | For what, my lords, must be the consequence, if this motion should be complied with? |
10352 | For when did any man hear, that a commodity was prohibited by licensing its sale? |
10352 | Have we destroyed the fleets of our enemies, fired their towns, and laid their fortresses in ruins? |
10352 | He may, indeed, make some discoveries, but whether he does not conceal something, who can determine? |
10352 | How could you prevent an understanding of this kind between two courts? |
10352 | How cruel must all impartial spectators of the publick transactions account a prosecution like this? |
10352 | How have any of his assertions been invalidated, or any of his reasons eluded? |
10352 | How shall their privileges be supported, if when they are infringed, no man will complain? |
10352 | If it be asked, what is farther to be expected from these troops? |
10352 | If the abundance of our riches be such as it has been represented, why are no measures formed for the payment of the publick debts? |
10352 | If the consumption of distilled spirits is to be hindered, how is the distillery to remain uninjured? |
10352 | If the intention of cruising ships is to annoy the enemies of the nation, ought they to be deprived of the liberty of pursuing them? |
10352 | If the trade of distilling is not to be impaired, what shall hinder the consumption of spirits? |
10352 | If these maxims were once generally understood, from how much perplexity would our councils be set free? |
10352 | If they are innocent, and far be it from me to declare them guilty without examination, whom will this inquiry injure? |
10352 | If we conquered at Ramillies, were we not in our turn beaten at Almanza? |
10352 | If we destroyed the French ships, was it not always with some loss of our own? |
10352 | If, therefore, our assistance be an act of honesty, and granted in consequence of treaties, why may it not equally be required of Hanover? |
10352 | If, therefore, this bill be considered and amended,( for why else should it be considered?) |
10352 | In the late war with France, of which the conduct has been so lavishly celebrated, did no designs miscarry? |
10352 | In what terms would they have expressed their gratitude for victory, who are thus thankful for disappointments and disgrace?" |
10352 | Is any lord in this assembly willing that this nation should assist the queen of Hungary at the annual expense of sixteen hundred thousand pounds? |
10352 | Is any lord in this assembly willing to assist the queen of Hungary at the expense of sixteen hundred thousand a year? |
10352 | Is it your intention to restore the house of Austria to the full enjoyment of its former greatness? |
10352 | Is there a gentleman in this house, who is not convinced that this power has been warped, for some time past, towards the interest of France? |
10352 | It has been asked also, how any man can ascertain his claim to the indemnity? |
10352 | It has been asked, why the troops of Hanover were preferred to those of any other nation? |
10352 | It has, with regard to these troops, been asked by the noble lord who spoke last, what is the intent of this motion but to disband them? |
10352 | May not a man, from want of memory, or presence of mind, omit something at his examination which he may appear afterwards to have known? |
10352 | May not such reserves be suspected, when his answers shall not satisfy the expectations of his interrogators? |
10352 | May they not be easily satisfied with informations of one man, and incessantly press another to farther discoveries? |
10352 | Nay, are not we morally certain that our nearest, most natural ally, disavows the proceeding, and refuses to cooperate with us? |
10352 | Next to the consideration of our inward domestick strength, what foreign assistances have we to justify this measure? |
10352 | Next, whether they are as properly_ situated_? |
10352 | Or by whom have they, within that period, not been deceived by false appearances? |
10352 | Or how shall we assist the queen of Hungary, by collecting forces which dare not act against the only enemy which she has now to fear? |
10352 | Or whether they are not unconnected with the principal question, and therefore insidious and dangerous? |
10352 | Or why should the elector of Hanover exert his liberality at the expense of Britain? |
10352 | Or why should we imagine that this law will be executed with less opposition than the last? |
10352 | Sir, is it not natural for every one of us to guard our vital parts, rather than our more remote members? |
10352 | That our design against Carthagena was defeated, can not be denied; but what war has been one continued series of success? |
10352 | The next question that occurs, is, in what degree we ought to do it, and whether we should do it with our whole force? |
10352 | The provision against the crime of wilfully springing a mast, is at least useless; for when did any man admit that he sprung his mast by design? |
10352 | The question being then put, Whether the bill should be committed? |
10352 | Then, whether they are_ as good_? |
10352 | They think an army useless which gains no victories, and ask to what purpose the sword is drawn, if the blood of their enemies is not to be shed? |
10352 | This crowd of transactions, so different in their nature, so various in their consequences, who can venture to approve in the gross? |
10352 | Was it necessary to form an army to do nothing? |
10352 | Was it probable that they would have sent an army, in defenceless transports, into the jaws of the British fleet? |
10352 | We come now to consider, whether the Hanoverian troops should be made part of that force? |
10352 | What are our views in supporting the queen of Hungary? |
10352 | What but to be the first that shall destroy the constitution of the government, and give up that liberty which our ancestors established? |
10352 | What can be the opinion of the publick, when they see an address of this house, by which new expenses are recommended? |
10352 | What consequence can such declarations of our designs produce, but that of informing our enemies what force they ought to provide against us? |
10352 | What effect can be expected from this bill, but that of exposing them to temptations, by placing unlawful pleasures in their view? |
10352 | What else, indeed, can be intended by it, and what intention can be more worthy of this august assembly? |
10352 | What has the war produced in its whole course from one year to another, but defeats, losses, and ignominy? |
10352 | What is it but to enact that the ships shall be stationed in time of war as the commissioners of the admiralty shall determine and direct? |
10352 | What is this, my lords, but once more to vote ourselves useless? |
10352 | What is this, my lords, but to continue to the admiralty the power which has been always executed? |
10352 | What man can doubt, who knows the attention of his majesty to military discipline? |
10352 | What method could be devised by such a minister himself, to do the job more excellent than this? |
10352 | What then can we suppose was the reason, that neither indignation, nor integrity, nor resentment, ever before directed a motion like this? |
10352 | What then, my lords, is to be done? |
10352 | What, my lords, do we_ hold_, or what have we_ taken_? |
10352 | When I hear it asked by the noble lords, what effects have been produced by our armaments and expenses? |
10352 | When we hired these troops in the last instance, did they not deceive us? |
10352 | Where, my lords, can it be expected that malice like this will find an end? |
10352 | Why forces unacquainted with the use of arms were sent against them, under the command of leaders equally ignorant? |
10352 | Why should we imagine, that they anticipated every contingency, and left nothing for succeeding ages? |
10352 | Why we did not rescue our sailors from captivity, when opportunities of exchange were in our power? |
10352 | Why were not our troops sent which have been so long maintained at home only for oppression and show? |
10352 | Why, my lords, should less be bought now than formerly? |
10352 | Will any lord say that they have marched? |
10352 | Will not the bill give an apparent opportunity for partiality? |
10352 | With this view, my lords, it has been asked, why the Hanoverians are preferred to all other nations? |
10352 | Would gentlemen advise the hire of Prussian troops to serve us in this conjuncture? |
10352 | Would not all the officers and mariners on board the ship see that such a thing was wilfully done? |
10352 | Would not every man immediately discover, that the witnesses were bribed, and therefore they would deserve no credit? |
10352 | Would not they cry out--"You are springing the mast,"and prevent it, or discover the crime, and demand punishment? |
10352 | Would not this have been generally asserted, and generally believed? |
10352 | Would she not leave Flanders to shift for itself, or still to be taken care of by the Dutch and Britain? |
10352 | Would they act at their own expense, would they exert their own proper force? |
10352 | Would they pay their own troops in aid of the common cause, when they found this nation ready to do it for them? |
10352 | Yet what was the effect, my lords, of all this diligence and vigour? |
10352 | [ The speaker then put the question in form,"Is it your lordships''pleasure, that the third reading of the bill be put off for five days?" |
10352 | _ Shall we hire_ Danes? |
10352 | _ Shall we then hire_ Saxons? |
10352 | _ That they are as good_, what man can doubt, who knows the character of the German nation? |
10352 | and how can they be known, or at least, how can they be remembered in the heats of drunkenness? |
10352 | and is there any other use of spirituous liquors than that of drinking them? |
10352 | and lastly, whether the Hanoverian troops should be made a part of that force? |
10352 | and whether the means that have already been used, deserve our approbation? |
10352 | and why this pernicious trade is carried on with confidence and security, in opposition to the law? |
10352 | how many thousands of our fellow- subjects would be preserved from slaughter? |
10352 | if you should unhappily fall into the fire, would you caution your servants not to pull you out but by degrees? |
10352 | leisure, that at length they may securely set us at defiance, and plunder our merchants without fear of vengeance? |
10352 | nay, farther, are they not in all appearance now upon the point of being employed in a quarrel of their own? |
10352 | or can it be imagined, that pity has prevailed over policy or cowardice? |
10352 | or that to offer and refuse is the same action? |
10352 | or with what propriety can we assume the title of legislators, if we are to pass a bill like this without examination? |
10352 | out of so vast a grant? |
10352 | then, whether we ought to do it with our whole force? |
10352 | to this expense what limits can be set? |
10352 | what but the immediate ruin of the house of Austria, by which the French ambition has been so long restrained? |
10352 | what but the total destruction of the whole system of power which has been so laboriously formed and so strongly compacted? |
10352 | what might she not be able to do with a million more? |
10352 | what, but an inclination to aggrandize and enrich a contemptible province, and to deck with the plunder of Britain the electorate of Hanover? |
10352 | when is there to be an end of paying troops who are not to march against our enemies? |
10352 | why should they endeavour to intercept their existence, or suffer them to exist only to be wretched? |
10352 | why should they endeavour to torture their limbs with pains, and load their lives with the guilt of their parents? |
10352 | why should they hinder that trade to which they must owe all the comforts which plenty affords? |
10352 | why they have been selected from all other troops, to fight, against France, the cause of Europe? |
37153 | ''Certainly,''said the Regent;''Georgina?'' |
37153 | ''Do, ma''am? |
37153 | ''Do, ma''am? |
37153 | ''Has Mr. Childers ascertained anything on the subject of the beards?'' |
37153 | ''Has your Majesty been riding to- day?'' |
37153 | ''Has your Majesty got a nice horse?'' |
37153 | ''I should like to know,''she exclaimed in triumphant scorn,''if they mean to give the_ Ladies_ seats in Parliament?'' |
37153 | ''Is Sir Robert so weak,''she asked,''that even the Ladies must be of his opinion?'' |
37153 | ''Or Elizabeth?'' |
37153 | ''The Mistress of the Robes and the Ladies of the Bedchamber?'' |
37153 | ''What am I to do if Lord Melbourne comes up to me?'' |
37153 | ''What is your favourite tune? |
37153 | ''What''s that you''re drinking, sir?'' |
37153 | ''Who is there?'' |
37153 | ''Who is there?'' |
37153 | ''Who the devil is to take out the maid of honour?'' |
37153 | ''Why did n''t she send for the butler?'' |
37153 | ''Why do n''t you drink wine? |
37153 | ''Your sister, Lady Frances Egerton, rides, I think, does n''t she?'' |
37153 | ''[ 12] But, though the Prince might be dead, had he not left a vicegerent behind him? |
37153 | ''[ 14] But what did Lord Palmerston care? |
37153 | ''[ 45] How did she know? |
37153 | A second Gloriana, did he call her? |
37153 | After all, what else could she do? |
37153 | Albert threw up his hands in shocked amazement: what could one do with such a man? |
37153 | An anonymous pamphlet entitled''What does she do with it?'' |
37153 | And was he going to allow himself, his wife, his family, his whole existence, to be governed by Baroness Lehzen? |
37153 | And why should they not last? |
37153 | And, if the gentle virtue of an inward excellence availed so little, could he expect more from the hard ways of skill and force? |
37153 | But had the Baron no misgivings? |
37153 | But how could he choose the right person? |
37153 | But the English Government appeared to adopt a neutral attitude; it was too bad; not to be for him was to be against him-- could they not see that? |
37153 | But then-- supposing Palmerston refused to go? |
37153 | But what could she do? |
37153 | But why should it have been? |
37153 | But would all go well? |
37153 | But, indeed, why should there be any question of resisting? |
37153 | Could he believe, in his blind arrogance, that even his ignominious dismissal from office was something that could be brushed aside? |
37153 | Did Lord Palmerston forget that she was Queen of England? |
37153 | Did he never wonder whether, perhaps, he might have accomplished not too little but too much? |
37153 | Did he possess the magic bridle which would curb that fiery steed? |
37153 | Did he smile as he wrote the words? |
37153 | Did she not understand that the consort of a constitutional sovereign must not be frivolous? |
37153 | Did she wonder in her heart of hearts how the Deity could have dared? |
37153 | Greville?'' |
37153 | Had he not asked Albert to succeed him as Commander- in- Chief? |
37153 | Had he not been a supporter of good Sir Robert? |
37153 | Had not Sir James Clark assured her that all would be well? |
37153 | Had she really once loved London and late hours and dissipation? |
37153 | Had she won? |
37153 | Had the Prince forgotten the noble aims to which his life was to be devoted? |
37153 | He had run through everything, and yet-- if Peel went out, he might be sent for-- why not? |
37153 | His colleagues observed another symptom-- was it of his irresponsibility or his wisdom? |
37153 | How could she ever have dreamt of setting up her will against his wisdom, her ignorance against his knowledge, her fancies against his perfect taste? |
37153 | How could she tolerate a state of affairs in which despatches written in her name were sent abroad without her approval or even her knowledge? |
37153 | How could they have guessed that he had spent the night before diligently getting up the details of their case? |
37153 | How much does the bucket understand the well? |
37153 | Humanity and fallibility are infectious things; was it possible that Lehzen''s prim pupil had caught them? |
37153 | IV Words and books may be ambiguous memorials; but who can misinterpret the visible solidity of bronze and stone? |
37153 | No doubt; but was that all? |
37153 | Of a boy with such a record, what else could be supposed? |
37153 | She was Queen of England, and was not that enough? |
37153 | Six years before, what would she have said, if a prophet had told her that the day would come when she would be horrified by the triumph of the Whigs? |
37153 | Some absolute, some ineffable sympathy? |
37153 | Some extraordinary, some sublime success? |
37153 | That she was beginning to listen to siren voices? |

47862 | Had any man said to me,"How soon will it come on?" |
47862 | If any man doubts this, I ask him to ask himself, what demand political honour could have made with which I failed to comply? |
47862 | Was it daringly pretended that there had been no real change of front; and that, if the world had understood me otherwise, it had misunderstood me? |

42990 | And yet, what hardship is it to go out of one''s way in Britain? |
42990 | But after all, does it not savor even more of romance that mystery enshrouds the past of the stupendous structure whose scanty remnants encircle us? |
42990 | But before we go shall we ask the story of Corfe? |
42990 | But the interior of Sherborne Abbey-- where is there another like it? |

42990 | Shall we let one more fortunate than we, having seen the prospect on a cloudless day, tell its beauty in poetic phrase? |

43565 | Can you tell me,said I,"if I can get a meal and a bed at this inn?" |
43565 | Did you say the stars were worlds, Tess? |
43565 | Doctors?... 43565 I only think-- I only wonder----""Yes?" |
43565 | I say,he said in an odd voice,"did you hear?" |
43565 | In what way? |
43565 | Is that possible? |
43565 | Is this your home? |
43565 | No market value? |
43565 | Slept well? |
43565 | So you have not seen the blood- stained family coach of the Turbervilles? |
43565 | That song you were singing when I came in? |
43565 | Then may I ask what trade you follow,said I,"and why you study that straw so intently?" |
43565 | Then tell me,I said,"why do you drink out of the bottle when you are alone?" |
43565 | Then thatch is dying out? |
43565 | Then you are not contented with your trade? |
43565 | Wantee plaize to take a seat? 43565 Well, you''ve seen it-- what do you think of it?" |
43565 | What be thuck one, Tommy? |
43565 | What can I show you, sir? |
43565 | What do you mean? |
43565 | What is that thing as goes buzzing about the gearden, Tommy? |
43565 | Where did you learn hypnotism? |
43565 | Which do we live on-- a splendid one or a blighted one? |
43565 | Why? |
43565 | Yes, yes,he said, musing;"queer, is n''t it? |
43565 | ''Ess, mum,''she said,''and shall I_ sting- guish_ the old cat before I go to bed?''" |
43565 | And can they make such chests in these days? |
43565 | And did Hy Paulett go often to the Greyhound and allay his thirst in the making of it? |
43565 | And if all this thin veneer of civilisation was suddenly ripped away from us, how should we emerge? |
43565 | Are we not all haunted by certain landscapes which come back unbidden, not as topographical facts, but as vestures of the soul? |
43565 | But all this is by the way; the point is, why do I commence this chapter by talking about such things? |
43565 | But sha n''t I be a bother to your family at this time of the night?" |
43565 | But what would_ you_ do?" |
43565 | CHAPTER IV BLANDFORD TO DORCHESTER If we return, will England be Just England still to you and me? |
43565 | CHAPTER XII THE DEVON AND DORSET BORDERLAND"How far is it to Babylon?" |
43565 | Can you see your way down?" |
43565 | Certainly some virtue within me has departed-- what? |
43565 | Did it belong to the rustic or the innkeeper? |
43565 | Did they know its value? |
43565 | Do n''t you think there is something in this?" |
43565 | Do you care to leave your motor cycle? |
43565 | Have I not still My fill Of right good cheer,-- Cigars and beer? |
43565 | How could I be so niggardly as to beat down this poor fellow''s price? |
43565 | I held it up, and said,"How much?" |
43565 | I remember once hearing a Sussex labourer speak of taking his"coager"( cold cheer? |
43565 | I would not be so anxious to sell it, but my rent is a bit behind, and I shall have to sleep with Miss Green----""Sleep with Miss Green?" |
43565 | Is there something wrong with his poems, or unusual about them? |
43565 | Ist not follie to dread and stand of Death in feare That mother is of quiet rest, and grief away does weare? |
43565 | See_ Tess of the D''Urbervilles_:"Had it anything to do with father''s making such a mommet of himself in thik carriage?" |
43565 | Starre on Hie Where should a Starre be But on Hie? |
43565 | Suddenly he broke out:"What was his name?" |
43565 | What if luck has passed me by? |
43565 | What if my hopes are dead, My pleasures fled? |
43565 | What? |
43565 | Where should he turn for sanctuary? |
43565 | Why Should I Weep, wail, or sigh? |
43565 | Why? |
43565 | Yet is this a complete success? |
46385 | ''To be sure, my dear sir; do n''t you remember that rats once came under the forest laws-- a minor species of venison? 46385 And who, silly child, is Nell Cook?" |
46385 | Do you understand Italian, then? |
46385 | Father,wailed that assembled multitude,"why do you desert us so soon? |
46385 | Kent? |
46385 | So gentlemen like you''ve told me afore; but what I says is, dey both comes from Italy, do n''t dey? 46385 What,"asked an indignant fisherman--"what makes them''ere hotels pay like they does?" |
46385 | ''s marine palace, the"Pavilion"at Brighton, or, at any rate, to snatch a glamour from its name? |
46385 | An''now"(? |
46385 | Ay, whence? |
46385 | Bewildered at first by the almost complete darkness, they could only shout at random,"Where is Thomas Becket, traitor to the King?" |
46385 | But from what stones those original names proceeded who shall say? |
46385 | But, it may be asked, if the town were in such sore case, whence came the wealth of those substantial burgesses? |
46385 | Callous Sandwich? |
46385 | Can such things be? |
46385 | Did the Roman scheme, we wonder, allow them compensation? |
46385 | Does it not contain Ramsgate--"rollicking Ramsgate",--and Margate the merry, whose name-- I am sorry-- always reminds me of margarine? |
46385 | Funds are accumulating for a restoration of this church; but, unless the people come back to the land, why expend so much good money? |
46385 | He stood in front of what was then the the Chapel of St. Benedict, and calmly asked,"Reginald, why do you come into my church armed?" |
46385 | How different this from Horace Walpole''s description of the place in 1755:"How shall I describe Netley to you? |
46385 | How should it be? |
46385 | Is there not something radically wrong with England when a farmer''s wife can make such a speech as that, and not think it strange? |
46385 | Modern refinement subsequently euphemised the name into''East- street''; but''what''s in a name?'' |
46385 | Satire is writ large, in a fine bold Roman hand, over that description of the Military Canal, is it not? |
46385 | Then, falling over a monk, came an oath, from FitzUrse, and the question,"Where is the Archbishop?" |
46385 | There are, it is true, few places so interesting as Sheppey, but why, apart from its history? |
46385 | To whom will you leave us?" |
46385 | What do they find? |
46385 | What is there of Ivychurch? |
46385 | What says Ingoldsby of the canal? |
46385 | What was that which wrought such enmity between such old- time friends? |
46385 | What, then, do we know of Stonar? |
46385 | What? |
46385 | Where are the"York"or the"Ship"to- day? |
46385 | Where is that harbour of which some vestiges remained to the time of Elizabeth? |
46385 | Where, then, are the others of his household? |
46385 | Who that ever has sojourned in the west, and has known lovely Devon, would for a moment give Kent that pride of place? |
46385 | _ Can_ they be, indeed? |
46385 | that haven which, according to Leland, was"strayt for passage owt of Boloyn?" |
18192 | But I have paid myself by a bribe; I have taken another man''s money; and I call upon your justice-- to do what? 18192 But why not destroy them, or give them up to the Company, and say you were paid, which would have been the only truth in this transaction? |
18192 | Did you deliver them so indorsed into the treasury? |
18192 | Pray, Madam, where did you find it? |
18192 | Receive a bribe? 18192 What are you?--stones? |
18192 | Where did you lose this bodkin? |
18192 | Where is it? 18192 Who is Gunga Govind Sing?" |
18192 | Why, is there not a cabooleat? |
18192 | And as to the man,--is Mr. Hastings a man against whom a charge of bribery is improbable? |
18192 | And do you wonder, my Lords, that such guests and such hosts are difficult to be divided? |
18192 | And how came he, two years after, when he does tell you that it was the Company''s and not his own, to alter the public accounts? |
18192 | And how did it turn out in fact? |
18192 | And how does he recommend him to be rewarded? |
18192 | And how does he seek to relieve that want? |
18192 | And how is it managed? |
18192 | And now was this scandalous and ruinous traffic in bribes brought to light by the Court of Directors? |
18192 | And of what was this to be a report? |
18192 | And then the inferences which are to follow these implied facts are to follow them-- But how? |
18192 | And what is his new arrangement? |
18192 | And who do you think was the next public officer he appointed? |
18192 | And who is the accountant whom he produces? |
18192 | And why? |
18192 | Another? |
18192 | Any base purpose, any desertion of public duty? |
18192 | Are these the accounts we should expect from such a man? |
18192 | Are these things to pass as matters of course? |
18192 | At the end of five years what do you think was the failure? |
18192 | Before he left Calcutta, in July, 1784[ 1781? |
18192 | Being thus driven to the wall, he says,"Why do you not form yourselves into a committee? |
18192 | But do not your Lordships see that this is an entire mistake? |
18192 | But does he adhere to his old pretence of freedom to the Nabob? |
18192 | But how can they restore it? |
18192 | But in what condition are we now? |
18192 | But in what court can a suit be instituted, and against whom, for the recovery of this balance of 40,000_l._ out of 95,000_l._? |
18192 | But reversing this, and taking their applause first, let us see on what does he ground his hope of their applause? |
18192 | But some have so managed the affair, that, when you inquire who the farmer is,--Was such a one farmer? |
18192 | But the principal question is this:--"On what account was the one lac and a half given to the Governor- General which you have laid to his account? |
18192 | But was it an entertainment upon a visit? |
18192 | But was it even then entered regularly upon the Company''s accounts? |
18192 | But was there no application made to Mr. Hastings upon that occasion? |
18192 | But were they then cancelled? |
18192 | But what does he say to the Directors? |
18192 | But what end could his being inaccurate answer? |
18192 | But what is Mr. Hastings''s account of Rajah Debi Sing? |
18192 | But what is an inaccurate_ accountant_ good for? |
18192 | But what is his answer, when three years after he is desired to produce this account? |
18192 | But what was the price of that concession? |
18192 | But what was the real state of the case? |
18192 | But what was to entitle him to their applause? |
18192 | But who ever saw them? |
18192 | But why did he not deliver them up entirely, when he was going upon that service? |
18192 | But why had not you an order of the Governor- General and Council? |
18192 | But, after all, do you find any clear discovery? |
18192 | Can he make any laws to prevent it? |
18192 | Can he open any inquiry? |
18192 | Can the power that crushed and destroyed them? |
18192 | Can your Lordships believe that this can be any other than a systematical, deliberate fraud, grossly conducted? |
18192 | Cantoo Baboo? |
18192 | Did Mr. Hastings obey that order? |
18192 | Did Mr. Hastings pretend to say that he destroyed the Provincial Councils for their corruptness or insufficiency, when he dissolved them? |
18192 | Did Mr. Hastings vest these offices in him? |
18192 | Did he do so? |
18192 | Did he improve the internal state of the government by great reforms? |
18192 | Did he owe nothing to himself? |
18192 | Did he owe nothing to the legislature,--did he owe nothing to your Lordships, and to the House of Commons, who had appointed him? |
18192 | Did he owe nothing to the world, as to its opinion, to which every public man owes a reputation? |
18192 | Did he so? |
18192 | Did it answer in an increase of the revenue? |
18192 | Did she keep any accounts? |
18192 | Did they not want to pursue and to revive those dormant prosecutions? |
18192 | Do I want any other presumption of his guilt, upon such an occasion, than such conduct as this? |
18192 | Do we attempt to conceal them from your Lordships? |
18192 | Do we want a cause, my Lords? |
18192 | Do we want a tribunal? |
18192 | Do you know anything about it? |
18192 | Do you perceive anything in their local situation that should distinguish them from other provinces of Bengal? |
18192 | Do you think that they were chosen as a little demesne for Mr. Hastings? |
18192 | Do you want a criminal, my Lords? |
18192 | Do you want more proof than this violent transgression of the Company''s orders upon that occasion that some corrupt motive must have influenced him? |
18192 | Do you wonder that such visits, when so well paid for and well provided for, were naturally long? |
18192 | Do your Lordships believe that it was conscious innocence that made him endure such reproaches, so recorded, from his own colleague? |
18192 | Does he, my Lords? |
18192 | For fear of what? |
18192 | For what says Mr. Hastings? |
18192 | For why did not Mr. Larkins get the whole of that paper read and translated? |
18192 | Has he enlarged the boundary of our government? |
18192 | Has there, at this moment, any light broken in upon you concerning this matter? |
18192 | Hastings?--five, ten, twenty, forty per cent? |
18192 | Have I not men to deal with? |
18192 | He goes on to say( and the threat is indeed alarming) that by calling him to account they may provoke him-- to what? |
18192 | He is asked,"How came you to take bonds for this money, if it was not your own? |
18192 | He is hurt at it; he considers it as a cruel treatment of him; he says,"Have I deserved this treatment?" |
18192 | Here there is no mention made of the name of the person who had the cabooleat: whom can they call upon? |
18192 | Here we have more light; but does Mr. Larkins anywhere tell you anything about Nuddea? |
18192 | How are we to account for this gross inaccuracy? |
18192 | How came he, I say, to be so wicked a servant, that, out of sixty- eight divisions, he chose only three to supply the exigencies of the Company? |
18192 | How was the truth of his conduct to be investigated by these? |
18192 | How? |
18192 | I am now sinking into the extremity of private want; do give me this-- what? |
18192 | If it be asked, Where is the record of this? |
18192 | If you look at Mr. Hastings''s merits, as he calls them, what are they? |
18192 | If your Governor is discovered in taking a bribe, he will say,"What is that to you? |
18192 | In such a manner as that he might be controlled by others? |
18192 | In the first place, why did he take bonds at all from the Company for the money that was their own? |
18192 | In what office is it entered? |
18192 | In whose possession were the bonds? |
18192 | Is he a man you can call to account for these particulars? |
18192 | Is it in arrear? |
18192 | Is it in the hands of Mr. Hastings''s wicked bribe- brokers, or in his own hands? |
18192 | Is it that satisfaction and reparation may be awarded against the said Warren Hastings to the said Company for their own benefit? |
18192 | Is it the Company''s? |
18192 | Is it the man whose example they follow that is to bring them before a tribunal for their punishment? |
18192 | Is it to be believed that men can long be ashamed of that which they see to be the road to honor? |
18192 | Is not this tantamount to a denial? |
18192 | Is there honor and justice in taking from a lady a gratuitous present made to her? |
18192 | Is this language to be listened to? |
18192 | Is this the way in which money is to be received and accounted for? |
18192 | Is this true? |
18192 | It might be expected that the Company would inquire of Mr. Hastings, and ask,"From whom did he get it? |
18192 | It was his duty not merely[ not?] |
18192 | Mr. Hastings knew this man to be bad; all the world knew him to be bad; and how did he employ him? |
18192 | Mr. Hastings never trusted his colleagues in this proceeding; and what reason does he give? |
18192 | Must not he recover of Mr. Hastings? |
18192 | My Lords, is it a prosecutor you want? |
18192 | My Lords, is it from a mistaken tenderness or a blind partiality to me, that, thus censured, they have sent me to this place? |
18192 | My Lords, was that interest used properly and fairly? |
18192 | My Lords, what evidence do we produce to your Lordships of the consequences of Mr. Hastings''s corrupt measures? |
18192 | My Lords, what is it that we want here to a great act of national justice? |
18192 | Need I say any more upon this subject? |
18192 | Now did Mr. Hastings employ Gunga Govind Sing without a knowledge of his character? |
18192 | Now do you want an instance of prevarication and trickery in an account? |
18192 | Now in all that intermediate space where was it? |
18192 | Now in what case was it that Mr. Hastings made this determination? |
18192 | Now upon what pretence did he do all this? |
18192 | Now was there ever an instance of a man so basely deserting a duty, and giving so base a reason for it? |
18192 | Now was this the case with Mr. Hastings and Cantoo Baboo? |
18192 | Now will your Lordships be so good as to let it rest in your memory what sort of an exchequer this is, even with regard to its receipts? |
18192 | Now, if this money was not received for the Company, is it proper and right to take it from Mrs. Hastings? |
18192 | Or by a wise and incorrupt administration of justice? |
18192 | Shall I sit here to hear men collected from the dregs of the people give evidence, at his dictating, against my character and conduct? |
18192 | The account he gives of the first is an anecdote; and what is his account of the second? |
18192 | The few left on the pension- list, the poor remnants that had escaped, were they paid by his administratrix and deputy, Munny Begum? |
18192 | The rent- free lands, the best and richest lands of the whole province, were sold,--sold for-- what do your Lordships think? |
18192 | The second question is,--"In what manner was the application made to you, and by whom?" |
18192 | Then what can withstand such hands? |
18192 | Then, afterwards, why did he not enter it as the Company''s? |
18192 | Then, if so, must not Mr. Hastings recover it again from the Company? |
18192 | To meet his adversary and defy him? |
18192 | Tools and instruments for what? |
18192 | Was Mr. Hastings upon a visit? |
18192 | Was he a person whose conduct was disapproved by their common superiors? |
18192 | Was he a wretch, the basest of mankind, when opposed to Mr. Hastings? |
18192 | Was he to be of use as a communication between Debi Sing and the Committee, and in no other way? |
18192 | Was it in consequence of any requisition from him, or of any previous agreement, or of any established usage?" |
18192 | Was it on his former conduct? |
18192 | Was it only to receive such sums of money as Debi Sing might put into his hands, and which might have been easily sent to Calcutta? |
18192 | Was it right to lay the whole weight of bribery, extortion, and oppression upon those three provinces, and neglect the rest? |
18192 | Was it upon the confidence which he knew they had in him? |
18192 | Was the accusation improbable, either on account of the subject- matter or the actor in it? |
18192 | Was there ever, since the world began, any man who would dare to avow such sentiments, until driven to the wall? |
18192 | Well, what is to be done in such circumstances? |
18192 | Were the lower, the more industrious, spared? |
18192 | Were they given up? |
18192 | What are the date and circumstances of it? |
18192 | What could they be? |
18192 | What did he do? |
18192 | What does he do? |
18192 | What exhaustless fund of opulence could supply this destructive resource of wretchedness and misery? |
18192 | What have they to fear? |
18192 | What hinders him from renewing that visit? |
18192 | What is he? |
18192 | What is it that they will not pull down, when they are lifted to heaven against their oppressors? |
18192 | What is that necessity? |
18192 | What is the reason why Dinagepore, Patna, Nuddea, should have the post of honor assigned them? |
18192 | What is the substance of Mr. Larkins''s explanation of it? |
18192 | What is this man so eager about, what in such a rage about, that he can not endure the smallest delay of the post with common patience? |
18192 | What led me into that error? |
18192 | What must the thing to be moved be, when the machinery, when the necessary tools, for Gunga Govind Sing have cost 62,000_l._ a year to the Company? |
18192 | What was the accusation? |
18192 | What will you think of his being more than ordinarily cautious to avoid the suspicion of it? |
18192 | What, my Lords, did he owe nothing to the Company that had appointed him? |
18192 | What, no man at all? |
18192 | What, then, could be his business there? |
18192 | What, then, is become of it? |
18192 | When I say to a servant,"Why have you not given me the account which I have so often asked for?" |
18192 | When was there so much iniquity ever laid to the charge of any one? |
18192 | Where are they to be met with, unless from him? |
18192 | Where are we to look for accounts, but from an accountant- general? |
18192 | Who has received it? |
18192 | Who is to answer for it?" |
18192 | Who is to give an account of it? |
18192 | Who was he? |
18192 | Who were the instruments of his concealment? |
18192 | Who, under such discouragements, would give information or evidence against him? |
18192 | Whom are you to apply to for information? |
18192 | Why did he enter it at all? |
18192 | Why did he not cancel these bonds? |
18192 | Why did he, by an oath, bind his inferiors not to take these bribes? |
18192 | Why did not Mr. Hastings order you to carry them to the public account? |
18192 | Why did you not indorse them before? |
18192 | Why does he consider it unlucky? |
18192 | Why does not the running treasury account give an account of them? |
18192 | Why is it a secret? |
18192 | Why keep them at all? |
18192 | Why make a false entry, to enter it as his own? |
18192 | Why not enter truly the state of the account in the Company''s records? |
18192 | Why not name October as well as November? |
18192 | Why not, during the long period of so many years, cancel them?" |
18192 | Why was this done? |
18192 | Why was this done? |
18192 | Why, then, did he take them himself? |
18192 | Why? |
18192 | Why? |
18192 | Will flesh and blood refuse me?" |
18192 | Will he stick to this? |
18192 | You call upon me to lend you 34,000_l._, and propose bonds? |
18192 | You see that from the 29th of December[ November? |
18192 | You take it, then, for granted that he really concealed it from them? |
18192 | a slight man, a man of mean situation, a man of mean talents, a man of mean character? |
18192 | before what magistrate? |
18192 | do you find any satisfactory answer to the Directors''letter? |
18192 | does he once tell you from whom he received the money? |
18192 | how can you think of the meanness of bonds? |
18192 | is he to answer,"The reason I have not given it is because I thought you were railing at and abusing me"? |
18192 | money of your own? |
18192 | money? |
18192 | no, this bribe; rob me the man who gave me this bribe; vote me-- what? |
18192 | or did you deliver the account of your own free will, and unsolicited?" |
18192 | that an Old Bailey acquittal is enough to establish a fitness for trust? |
18192 | that there never was any custom of the East for it? |
18192 | that they were the only provinces honored with his protection, so far as to take bribes from them? |
18192 | that would be generous: money you owe me? |
18192 | to avoid it? |
18192 | to restore it to its owner? |
18192 | to the country that bore him? |
18192 | two hundred pounds to be given to a man for one day''s entertainment? |
18192 | what account was there of it? |
45010 | Admit he be,wrote Cromwell in reply,"shall that render him incapable to serve the public?... |
45010 | For what,he added,"do the enemy say? |
45010 | How long,jibed one of them,"halt ye between two opinions? |
45010 | Is not this the likeliest way to bring them to their liberties? |
45010 | My Lord,answered Cromwell,"if this be so why did we take up arms at first? |
45010 | What,they asked,"were the Lords of England but William the Conqueror''s colonels, or the Barons but his majors, or the Knights but his captains?" |
45010 | Who is it,asked Cromwell wrathfully in reply;"that created this common enemy? |
45010 | Whoever yet,he wrote long afterwards to his daughter Bridget,"tasted that the Lord is gracious, without some sense of self, vanity and badness?" |
45010 | You know, Mr. Story,he adds,"to withdraw the pay is to let fall the lecture, and who goeth to warfare at his own cost?" |
45010 | Glancing at the mace he asked"What shall we do with this bauble?" |
45010 | How was he to fight the enemy, unless he could choose his officers for their military efficiency, and not for their Presbyterian opinions? |
45010 | How were they likely to recognise the deeply seated belief in the justice of his Church and cause which lay behind the slippery trickiness of Charles? |
45010 | I asked him what that was? |
45010 | Is God-- will God be with you? |
45010 | Is not my assertion true? |
45010 | Nay, what do many say that were friends at the beginning of the Parliament? |
45010 | Or was it merely that they would not tolerate a Scottish conquest? |
45010 | To Whitelocke''s constitutional objections he replied sharply:"What if a man should take upon him to be a King?" |
45010 | To what other conclusion could these men possibly come? |
45010 | Was it not better, they asked, to come to terms with Charles than to continue a struggle which promised to drag out for years? |
45010 | Was it really in defence of''the change of government"that the people had sided with Cromwell? |
45010 | Was this to be the result of all the blood and treasure that had been expended? |
45010 | What could be the possible end of such demonstrations? |
45010 | What then were Oliver''s Ambassadors doing when that treaty was negotiating? |
45010 | What think you, by this time? |
45010 | What was to be the assurance for the pay and maintenance of the troops going to Ireland? |
45010 | What, then, was to be said of that ideal of elected Parliaments, which had sunk so deeply into the minds of that generation? |
45010 | Where are your materials to preserve your shipping? |
45010 | Where was it to end unless he sat in judgment to dispense equity to both? |
45010 | Where will you be able to challenge any right by sea, or justify yourselves against a foreign invasion on your own soil? |
45010 | Who could now doubt that-- under the thinnest of veils-- the army had taken the supreme control of the government into its hands? |
45010 | Who ever tasted that graciousness of His, and could go less in desire-- less than pressing after full enjoyment?" |
45010 | Who ever tasted that the Lord is gracious, without some sense of self, vanity, and badness? |
45010 | Who is there that holdeth up his head to oppose this danger? |
45010 | Who was to command in Ireland? |
45010 | Why, he asked, had they not come to him to talk the matter over? |
45010 | Would it be possible for Oliver to persist in this attitude to the end, in spite of the growing demands on the exchequer? |
45010 | Would it be so easy to deal with Charles? |
45010 | Would it not be confusion?... |
45010 | Yet how was it possible to base authority on any new Parliament which should even approximate to such a representation? |
45010 | and how, even if they had recognised it, could they have counted it to him for righteousness? |
44143 | ''Ah,''he said,''have you read all the others?'' |
44143 | ''Do you hear anything of the sort?'' |
44143 | And how long will it be before it leads to something very like armed intervention of the French in support of him? |
44143 | Are they directed against the new Administration? |
44143 | But can we do so? |
44143 | But has he? |
44143 | But how will our relations be, if we previously break off with France? |
44143 | Can you wonder that there is, to my eyes, a silver lining even to the great black cloud of a Franco- German War? |
44143 | Could you give me some hints as to the particular points which should be decided before we begin? |
44143 | Did the King of Greece understand Gambetta to say that France, with or without the co- operation of other Powers, would support Greece with troops? |
44143 | Do you attach much importance to this? |
44143 | Do you believe that the French have many tricks in hand for the Suez Canal Commission? |
44143 | Do you gather any information about his objects? |
44143 | Do you think that the House of Commons would allow us to take the whole debt upon ourselves, in order to save the bondholders? |
44143 | Does he also act upon it as regards Russia? |
44143 | Does it lie in their mouth, if we say that such encroachments, if persisted in, require special precautions? |
44143 | Have you heard anything of the negotiations in question? |
44143 | His Majesty might possibly acquiesce under strong pressure from all the Powers, but would all the Powers put such pressure on him? |
44143 | I see little other prospect of averting mischief, and if it begins, where is it to end? |
44143 | If therefore his policy or his passions incline him to do something striking to flatter the national vanity, how is he to find the means? |
44143 | In the middle of April there appeared in the_ Berlin Post_ the celebrated article entitled:''Is War in Sight?'' |
44143 | Is he disposed to be an alarmist? |
44143 | Is it helplessness, or bad faith? |
44143 | Is it your impression-- as it is mine-- that the French are supremely anxious to push us into war? |
44143 | Is there no hope of Russian interference to maintain peace? |
44143 | It may be very easy to bully and to crush France, but will it be possible to do this without raising a storm in other quarters? |
44143 | Of course the question is whether Boulanger is or is not to be in the new Cabinet? |
44143 | Or has Bismarck established a personal hold over him? |
44143 | So Germany keeps up an enormous army, and France strains every nerve to raise one; and what can diplomatists do? |
44143 | The Reds having once tasted blood, may become ravenous for more, and who can say where they may look for the next victims? |
44143 | The next question I want your advice upon is what, if anything, can other Powers, and particularly England, do to help to preserve peace? |
44143 | Then, what will the Austrians want? |
44143 | These things did not occur during the late Government? |
44143 | Was there, perhaps, in this action some reminiscence of a possible past happiness lost by himself? |
44143 | What does he think of Martino''s share in the recent Egyptian crisis? |
44143 | What does it all mean? |
44143 | What power did Wilson enjoy? |
44143 | What then is our attitude to be? |
44143 | What will be the best way of approaching the French Government when we have made up our own minds? |
44143 | What would he think of it as applied to any other department of life-- Ambassadors, Bishops, or Ministers? |
44143 | What, in your opinion, should they do? |
44143 | Whereupon Mr. William Barrington( now Sir William Barrington) said drily:''Have you seen all the others?'' |
44143 | Who could imagine that pillow fight who only knew him as Ambassador in Paris? |
44143 | Will he resist the temptation? |
44143 | Would it be possible to fuse them into a board, giving them a native colleague to be chosen by themselves, and then decide by majority? |
44143 | Would it, in either case, be safe to trust to the moral effect of its being sufficient, and to its not rendering further action imperative? |
44143 | Would they acquiesce in the subsequent enforcement of the decision of the Commission? |
44143 | You ask:_ Firstly_, What in my opinion should the French do to escape being attacked by Germany in their present defenceless state? |
44143 | _ Secondly._ What can other Powers, and particularly England, do to help to preserve peace? |
44143 | _ Thirdly._ Do I attach any importance to the Emperor of Russia''s pacific assurances? |
44143 | and what can you suggest for the settlement of the financial difficulties of Egypt, if we obtain no sanction for a change of the Law of Liquidation? |
52046 | Else, why should he, with wealth and honour blest, Refuse his age the needful hours of rest? |
52046 | In the hall, one of his friends asked him how he came off? |
52046 | Punish a body which he could not please, Bankrupt of life, yet prodigal of ease? |
52046 | Sir Samuel Garrard, being a member of the House, was asked, whether the Sermon was printed at his desire or order? |
52046 | Sir Samuel_ Astry_, Clerk of the Crown, being ask''d what was the Course of the Court? |
52046 | To the King''s message he cried, like a fainting woman,"Lord, what can I do? |
52046 | You may perhaps cry, how comes this sudden change? |
3286 | All are agreed, that parliaments should not be perpetual; the only question is, what is the most convenient time for their duration? |
3286 | Am I not to avail myself of whatever good is to be found in the world, because of the mixture of evil that will always be in it? |
3286 | Am I to congratulate a highwayman and murderer, who has broken prison, upon the recovery of his natural rights? |
3286 | And indeed how is it possible? |
3286 | And shall we Englishmen revoke to such a suit? |
3286 | Are all the taxes to be voted grievances, and the revenue reduced to a patriotic contribution, or patriotic presents? |
3286 | Are silver shoe- buckles to be substituted in the place of the land- tax and the malt- tax, for the support of the naval strength of this kingdom? |
3286 | Are the church lands to be sold to Jews and jobbers; or given to bribe new- invented municipal republics into a participation in sacrilege? |
3286 | Are the citizens of London to be drawn from their allegiance by feeding them at the expense of their fellow- subjects? |
3286 | Are the curates to be secluded from their bishops, by holding out to them the delusive hope of a dole out of the spoils of their own order? |
3286 | Are the old assignats depreciated at market? |
3286 | Are we to deny to a MAJORITY of the people the right of altering even the whole frame of their society, if such should be their pleasure? |
3286 | But in what manner was this chaos brought into order? |
3286 | But is it in destroying and pulling down that skill is displayed? |
3286 | But is superstition the greatest of all possible vices? |
3286 | But who are to judge what that profit and advantage ought to be? |
3286 | But who gave Robespierre the power of being a tyrant? |
3286 | But who will answer for the temper of a house of commons elected under these circumstances? |
3286 | But why proscribe the other, and surely, in every point of view, the more laudable use of estates? |
3286 | Can I now congratulate the same nation upon its freedom? |
3286 | Do you imagine, then, that it is the land- tax which raises your revenue? |
3286 | Does a design against the constitution of this country exist? |
3286 | Does any one of you think that England, so wasted, would, under such a nursing attendance, so rapidly and cheaply recover? |
3286 | Does evil so react upon good, as not only to retard its motion, but to change its nature? |
3286 | Does he mean the Pay- office Act? |
3286 | Does it not produce something ignoble and inglorious? |
3286 | Does not something like this now appear in France? |
3286 | For what have I entered into all this detail? |
3286 | For which of her vices did they put to death the mildest of all human creatures, the duchess of Biron? |
3286 | For which of his vices did that great magistrate, D''Espremenil, lose his fortune and his head? |
3286 | For which of the vices of that pattern of benevolence, of piety, and of all the virtues, did they put her to death? |
3286 | For, if you admit this interpretation, how does their idea of election differ from our idea of inheritance? |
3286 | From passive submission was it to expect resolute defence? |
3286 | Had you no way of turning the revenue to account but through the improvident resource of a spendthrift sale? |
3286 | Had you no way of using the men but by converting monks into pensioners? |
3286 | Has it not hitherto been true in the colonies? |
3286 | Have we an example on record of a House of Commons punished for its servility? |
3286 | I can not help asking, Why all this pains, to clear the British nation of ambition, perfidy, and the insatiate thirst of war? |
3286 | If froward men should refuse this cure, can they vitiate anything but themselves? |
3286 | If there be danger, must there be no precaution at all against it? |
3286 | If these examples take root in the minds of men, what members hereafter will be bold enough not to be corrupt? |
3286 | If we repent of our good actions, what, I pray you, is left for our faults and follies? |
3286 | In the distractions which it produces, what room is there for the cultivation of letters, or the pursuits of any honourable art? |
3286 | In what light is all this viewed in a great assembly? |
3286 | Indeed, how should they? |
3286 | Is a compulsory paper currency to be substituted in the place of the legal coin of this kingdom? |
3286 | Is a politic act the worse for being a generous one? |
3286 | Is episcopacy to be abolished? |
3286 | Is every land- mark of the country to be done away in favour of a geometrical and arithmetical constitution? |
3286 | Is his charge equal to the finding of the grand jury of Europe, and sufficient to put you upon your trial? |
3286 | Is it him, who sees that chosen spot of plenty and delight converted into a Jacobin ferocious republic, dependent on the homicides of France? |
3286 | Is it not the same virtue which does everything for us here in England? |
3286 | Is it not true in Ireland? |
3286 | Is it not true, that they were the first to declare war upon this kingdom? |
3286 | Is it only an oppressive nightmare with which we have been loaded? |
3286 | Is it only an unbookish jealousy, as Shakspeare calls it? |
3286 | Is it that the people are changed, that the commonwealth can not be protected by its laws? |
3286 | Is it then all a frightful dream, and are there no regicides in the world? |
3286 | Is no concession proper, but that which is made from your want of right to keep what you grant? |
3286 | Is our monarchy to be annihilated, with all the laws, all the tribunals, and all the ancient corporations of the kingdom? |
3286 | Is the House of Lords to be voted useless? |
3286 | Is the fate of the queen of France to produce this softening of character? |
3286 | Is then fraud and falsehood become the distinctive character of Englishmen? |
3286 | Is this a lesson of MODERATION to a descendant of Maria Theresa, drawn from the fate of the daughter of that incomparable woman and sovereign? |
3286 | Is this a triumph to be consecrated at altars? |
3286 | Is this principle to be true in England, and false everywhere else? |
3286 | Issue new assignats.--Mais si maladia opiniatria, non vult se garire, quid illi facere? |
3286 | It is his by law; what have I to do with it or its history? |
3286 | It may, perhaps, be far advanced in its aphelion.--But when to return? |
3286 | Quid domini facient, audent cum talia fures? |
3286 | Quis inter haec, literis, aut ulli bonae arti, locus? |
3286 | Rights which are absolutely repugnant to it? |
3286 | Shall I not say to these men,"Arrangez- vous, canaille?" |
3286 | Shall we be more tender of the tyrants of our own time, when we see them acting worse tragedies under our eyes? |
3286 | Should we not obtest Heaven, and whatever justice there is yet on earth? |
3286 | That the Convention should not contain one military man of name? |
3286 | The only question is, what is it worth to the buyer? |
3286 | They may, like him, begin by singing"Beatus ille"--but what will be the end? |
3286 | To what purpose have I recalled your view to the end of the last century? |
3286 | To whom then would I make the East- India Company accountable? |
3286 | Was little done because a revolution was not made in the constitution? |
3286 | Was she a person so very ferocious and cruel as, by the example of her death, to frighten us into common humanity? |
3286 | What can be hoped for after this? |
3286 | What ferocity of character drew on the fate of Elizabeth, the sister of King Louis the Sixteenth? |
3286 | What have they thought of in France, under such a difficulty as almost puts the human faculties to a stand? |
3286 | What hinders this monster from being sent as ambassador to convey to his majesty the first compliments of his brethren, the regicide Directory? |
3286 | What is the remedy? |
3286 | What is the use of discussing a man''s abstract right to food or medicine? |
3286 | What is there to shock in this? |
3286 | What lesson does the iniquity of prevalent factions read to us? |
3286 | What must they think of that body of teachers, if they see it in no part above the establishment of their domestic servants? |
3286 | What signify all those titles, and all those arms? |
3286 | What then? |
3286 | What was the event? |
3286 | What would you call it? |
3286 | What( says the financier) is peace to us without money? |
3286 | When I say I have not received more than I deserve, is this the language I hold to majesty? |
3286 | When a man can not live and maintain his family by the natural hire of his labour, ought it not to be raised by authority? |
3286 | When was it that a king of England wanted wherewithal to make him respected, courted, or perhaps even feared, in every state of Europe? |
3286 | Whence is their amendment? |
3286 | Whence this alarming change? |
3286 | Where shall we find recorded exertions of active benevolence at once so numerous, so varied, and so important, made by one man? |
3286 | Who could have imagined that atheism could produce one of the most violently operative principles of fanaticism? |
3286 | Who will accumulate, when he does not know the value of what he saves? |
3286 | Who will answer for the courage of a house of commons to arm the crown with the extraordinary powers that it may demand? |
3286 | Who will labour without knowing the amount of his pay? |
3286 | Who will study to increase what none can estimate? |
3286 | Why do I feel so differently from the Reverend Dr. Price, and those of his lay flock, who will choose to adopt the sentiments of his discourse? |
3286 | Why should you presume, that, in any country, a body duly constituted for any function, will neglect to perform its duty, and abdicate its trust? |
3286 | Why, through the violation of all property, through an outrage upon every principle of liberty, forcibly carry them from the better to the worse? |
3286 | Why? |
3286 | Why? |
3286 | Will any one presume, against both authority and opinion, to hold up this unfashionable, antiquated, exploded constitution? |
3286 | Will these gentlemen of the direction animadvert on the partners of their own guilt? |
3286 | With you, in your purifying revolution, whom have you chosen to regulate the church? |
3286 | Would not such a coincidence of interest and opinion be rather fortunate? |
3286 | Would twenty shillings have ruined Mr. Hampden''s fortune? |
3286 | You would not secure men from tyranny and sedition, by rooting out of the mind the principles to which these fraudulent pretexts apply? |
3286 | a kind of meanness in all the prevalent policy? |
3286 | a tendency in all that is done to lower along with individuals all the dignity and importance of the state? |
3286 | and the slough of slavery, which we are not able to work off, to serve them for their freedom? |
3286 | and who were the instruments of his tyranny? |
3286 | are we to give them our weakness for their strength? |
3286 | or that it is the Mutiny Bill, which inspires it with bravery and discipline? |
3286 | our opprobrium for their glory? |
3286 | shall we not use the same liberty that they do, when we can use it with the same safety? |
3286 | that it is the annual vote in the committee of supply, which gives you your army? |
3286 | to be commemorated with grateful thanksgiving? |
3286 | when to speak honest truth only requires a contempt of the opinion of those whose actions we abhor? |
50662 | Wessex? |
50662 | What county is that? 50662 But how to get them? 50662 But when a big ship comes and wants to get up the river under the bridge, what is to be done? 50662 For whom? 50662 Has she gone down, carrying to the bottom the poor fellows who had raised the flare a short time back? 50662 Now how to get away? 50662 Soon the lifeboat is sweeping past the anchored lightship, and her men hail the lightship with a tremendous shout ofWhere away?" |
50662 | The only question is, before which barge will it happen? |
50662 | The question at once springs to our lips, Who raised these enormous blocks of stone, and set them up in so exact a fashion? |
50662 | We know Essex and Sussex, but where is Wessex?" |
50662 | Well, now, from the City which way shall we strike, east or west? |
50662 | West and East of what? |
50662 | What is it? |
50662 | What prize do those stalwart fellows race to gain? |
50662 | Where is the dividing- line? |
50662 | Why did Shakespeare write these lines? |
50662 | Why is this? |
50662 | Why so lonely? |
46309 | ''Lead the House of Commons?'' |
46309 | ''To whom would you have given it?'' |
46309 | ''What more could they say or do than they had done?'' |
46309 | ''What''s the matter?'' |
46309 | ''Why did you?'' |
46309 | ''Why?'' |
46309 | After dinner he took me aside and said,''Have you any means of speaking to_ these chaps_?'' |
46309 | And what has been his career before the world? |
46309 | And what is the cause of this mighty change? |
46309 | At last her natural impetuosity broke out, and she said to him,''Do you mean to marry Miss Berry or do you not?'' |
46309 | But then what is to come next? |
46309 | But where are we to look for great men? |
46309 | Do you think it is prudent in you to publish such a book?'' |
46309 | He asked her why Peel had resigned? |
46309 | He may go great lengths, and at some of these meetings may expose himself to a prosecution, but when would you find an Irish jury to convict him?'' |
46309 | He read it, and then said,''What do you say to that?'' |
46309 | He said it was the particular_ time_ which made the great objection; would I delay it? |
46309 | He said that Lord John was not tempted by this bait, and very properly said,''The question is, Do we agree with the Protectionists?'' |
46309 | He said,''It was very kind of Lord Melbourne, and I am much obliged to him; but do you mean that this refers to anything that has already occurred?'' |
46309 | I asked,''what have they done?'' |
46309 | I did not think it worth while to dispute with him; but just asked him what it was they had done or left undone? |
46309 | I said if he felt that, with his superhuman memory and wonderful scope of knowledge, what must ordinary men feel? |
46309 | I spoke to him about it and so did the others--''But what are we to do with Brougham?'' |
46309 | I suggested the possible case of this alteration accepted as a compromise by all the Protectionists in the House of Commons, and what then? |
46309 | If Lord John came in, how was he to stay in? |
46309 | If Peel resigns, everybody asks who is to come in, and how is the government to be carried on by the Whigs, if they return to power? |
46309 | Jarnac said, with an affected_ naïveté_,''You mean if the Queen had been married to Prince Leopold?'' |
46309 | May I then contradict it on your authority?'' |
46309 | Of this I have no doubt, for who else can care for his_ past_ conduct being canvassed? |
46309 | On est venu vers moi me prendre la main en me disant:"Mais, Monsieur le Ministre, que ferez- vous de cet homme- là? |
46309 | Palmerston therefore said to Jarnac,''Why do n''t you at once take one of the Spanish princes, Don Francisco''s sons? |
46309 | She said,''Oh no, why should you?'' |
46309 | The other day the Queen said to the Chancellor,''Why does Lord Brougham never come to Court?'' |
46309 | Thiers asked Guizot,''Are you determined to remain Minister?'' |
46309 | What can we do about O''Connell? |
46309 | said Clarendon to him, when he told him,''how on earth did you contrive to get the Bishop of London to come to your house?'' |
42270 | Did n''t she take any notice at all? |
42270 | Did she read it? |
42270 | Did she say anything? |
42270 | Do you see that lady in the white dress? |
42270 | Oh, what did people do before there were tennis and croquet and golf? |
42270 | Shall I ever see it again? |
42270 | What''s the matter? |
42270 | Why could n''t she have settled in some decent place? |
42270 | You do n''t know me, ma''am? |
42270 | You do n''t remember me? 42270 You do n''t say so?" |
42270 | You remember me? |
42270 | You wo n''t go into the Chamber of Horrors, I suppose? |
42270 | _ Now,_said he intensely,"do you wonder at my wanting to come back to my old school?" |
42270 | ''What''s this on the ground?'' |
42270 | And did he ever? |
42270 | And was it too late? |
42270 | And why do n''t you write what you understand?" |
42270 | And why have I never seen such cows as those splendid, big, red Devon cows elsewhere? |
42270 | Are they the real Queen Anne? |
42270 | As for the delicious lurid function, snapdragon, is it obsolete in England yet? |
42270 | But again-- what is there to marvel at? |
42270 | But apart altogether from consideration of such conditions as were of the times and not of her individual choice, did she not know her business well? |
42270 | But suppose the rector of Malling( I know nothing of him) should be an Evangelical? |
42270 | But what could evade the lynx- eyed vigilance of the duenna of old? |
42270 | But why should I say alas? |
42270 | Could anything be more appropriate to the character of the town? |
42270 | Could anything in city planning be happier in effect than the position of the cathedral in its quiet oasis amid the streets? |
42270 | Could even Devonshire have composed a lovelier picture to live with? |
42270 | Dare I hope that I am loved in return?" |
42270 | Did I know this and that and the other about the family? |
42270 | Did I know where the portrait was? |
42270 | Did he say? |
42270 | Do n''t you remember?" |
42270 | Do you mean to say those we had at lunch yesterday were that price?" |
42270 | Does that seem an incongruous association of ideas? |

42270 | One thing I wish I had asked the sweet- maker: Are they allowed to worship in the nuns''chapel? |
42270 | Or the boy I ca n''t bear? |
42270 | Or:"Oh, why did she flatter my boyish pride? |
42270 | Sinking upon a bench in the grateful air I said to my niece:"My dear, do you happen to see amongst all these people anyone you know?" |
42270 | The boy I like( though I may never have exchanged a word with him)? |

42270 | Who asks me to be his? |
42270 | Who can wonder? |
42270 | Who lauds my beauty in such ardent verse? |

45025 | Is it for the advantage of the different communities that they should remain together? |
45025 | Is it right or politic, he asks, that an important part of the Empire should be left to such a choice? |
45025 | Is that retention to be permanent? |

45025 | Why not, one asks, for the British people as well as for those of the United States? |
45025 | Why should it not be admitted among the ordinary considerations of political life as well? |
45025 | Why, it may be asked, have not the inconsistency and the temporary character of the existing national system been all along obvious to every one? |

12483 | A stranger is fishing by a burn- side one Monday morning, when the parish minister accosts him from the other side of the stream thus:--"Good sport?" |
12483 | A young officer with much politeness came forward and picked her up, earnestly asking her at the same time,"I hope ma''am, you are no worse?" |
12483 | A young wit, by way of playing him off on the race- course, asked him, in a contemptuous tone,"Is that the same horse you had last year, laird?" |
12483 | A''ae oo? |
12483 | A''oo? |
12483 | After a pause, but still in the most courteous accents,"Madam, have I your ladyship''s permission to send you some fish?" |
12483 | After a pause, he repeated with great emphasis,"Do ye venture?" |
12483 | After all were seated, the Marquis addressed the lady,"Madam, may I have the honour and happiness of helping your ladyship to some fish?" |
12483 | After looking about him he put the anxious question,"But, Captain, whaur''s Miss Ketty?" |
12483 | An Englishman, offended at such assumption of national pre- eminence, asked indignantly,"What do you say to Shakspeare?" |
12483 | And what if this failed? |
12483 | And what is the difference? |
12483 | Another lady was equally discomposed by the introduction of gas, asking, with much earnestness,"What''s to become o''the puir whales''?" |
12483 | Are n''t you one of the''Scots wha hae?'' |
12483 | Are you aware that there is a modern church at Oxford in the pure Norman style? |

12483 | Clerk, do you spell water in Scotland with two t''s?" |
12483 | Coming up to him in the High Street of Dumfries, they accosted him with much solemnity--"Maister Dunlop, dae ye hear the news?" |

12483 | Dr. Barber ingeniously remarks--"Is it possible the little boy''s mother had one of these old Bibles, or is it merely a coincidence?" |
12483 | Fergusson?" |
12483 | Finding that she did not yet comprehend him, he exclaimed,"Why, girl, did you never see a horse- fly?" |
12483 | For example--"I see, James, that you tak a bit nap in the kirk,"said a minister to one of his people;"can ye no tak a mull with you? |

12483 | Hae ye ears, and hear not? |
12483 | Hae ye eyes, and see not? |
12483 | Have they ceased to exist, or are they removed from our sight to different scenes? |
12483 | He asked him,"And wha are ye, mi''man, that tak sae muckle on ye?" |
12483 | He led her to the churchyard, and pointing with his finger, got out,"My fowk lie there, Mary; wad ye like to lie there?" |
12483 | He was asked,"Did you ever see the minister the worse of drink?" |
12483 | He was informed that it was a fat Thamas Thamson, upon which the Aberdeen query naturally arose,"Ay, but fatten fat Thamas Thamson?" |
12483 | He was preaching on these words--"Is Ephraim my dear son? |
12483 | His Southron guest thought it incumbent to say,"Ah, minister, that''s wrong, is it not? |
12483 | Honesty declared the best policy, why? |

12483 | If he was asked"How is Mrs. Balne to- day?" |
12483 | If the spirit of God is in good men, as He certainly is, then who can doubt the value and the efficacy of the blessing which they bestow? |

12483 | Is it not extraordinary to see this rain of Bishoprics upon_ my_ head? |
12483 | Is it not plain that the temperance and moderation descended in the blood of the Burnetts? |
12483 | Is it possible that this could ever have been contemplated by the canon? |
12483 | Is the world a better world than that which we can remember? |
12483 | It is a kindly mode of referring to an individual, as we would say to a stranger,"Honest man, would you tell me the way to----?" |
12483 | It seems as if the wilful excluding of point was acceptable, otherwise how to explain the popularity of that book? |
12483 | It was a vara imperfect discourse in ma opinion; ye did weel eneuch till ye took them through, but where did ye leave them? |
12483 | It was as if"_ echo_ answered whaur?" |
12483 | Laird says,''I am going to send the young laird abroad,''''What for?'' |
12483 | Many living persons can remember Angus old ladies who would say to their nieces and daughters,"Whatna hummeldoddie o''a mutch hae ye gotten?" |
12483 | Might they not communicate personally what they communicate through the press? |
12483 | Mr. M---- of Bathgate came up to a street- paviour one day, and addressed him,"Eh, John, what''s this you''re at?" |
12483 | Mr. Macnee begins,"Donald, what brought you here?" |
12483 | My correspondent very justly adds the remark,"What would be thought of indulgence in drinking habits now that could lead to such a result?" |
12483 | On approaching him, one of them saluted him,"Well, Father Abraham, how are you to- day?" |
12483 | On her marriage- day, the youth to whom she was about to be united said to her in a triumphant tone,"Weel, Jenny, have n''t I been unco ceevil?" |
12483 | On the question, What was the"pestilence that walketh in darkness"? |
12483 | One came in rather late, and seeing he had scarcely room at the end of the seat, addressed his countryman,"Neebour, wad ye sit a bit_ wast_?" |
12483 | One of the sisters, in consternation, whispered to the other,"Esther, ye hae nae gotten the spune?" |
12483 | Our traveller, at last coming up to an old man breaking stones, asked him if there was_ any_ traffic on this road-- was it at_ all_ frequented? |
12483 | So David opened his criticism--"Thocht o''t, sir? |
12483 | So and So?" |
12483 | So as a test the preacher asked him,"What I had been saying last then?" |
12483 | So he shouted out,"Minister, may a puir body like me noo gie a hoast[174]?" |
12483 | So- and- so?" |
12483 | Some time afterwards, when Mr. Shireff met John on the road, he said,"And so, John, I understand you have become an Independent?" |
12483 | Thae''s fine claes ye hae gotten; whaur did ye get that coat?" |
12483 | The answer of an old woman under examination by the minister to the question from the Shorter Catechism--"What are the_ decrees_ of God?" |
12483 | The gentleman looked at it with longing eyes, and addressed the boy--"Where are you taking that salmon, my boy?" |
12483 | The laird came riding past, and seeing Jamie sitting on the bridge, accosted him:--"Ay, Fleeman, are ye here already?" |
12483 | The minister bluntly accosted him--"Ay, man, John, an''ye''ve left us; what micht be your reason for that? |
12483 | The minister, too eager to be scrutinising, took a long, deep pinch, and then said,"Whaur did you get it?" |
12483 | The other replied,"But canna the French say their prayers as weel?" |
12483 | The question occurs, Is not this a necessary, or at least a natural tendency of High Churchism?" |
12483 | The question was,"Why did the Israelites make a golden calf?" |
12483 | The story is this:--At a prolonged drinking bout, one of the party remarked,"What gars the laird of Garskadden look sae gash[39]?" |
12483 | The young minister demurred at this, and asked if he"might not introduce any other short prayer?" |
12483 | Then a little quicker,"Is your Ladyship inclined to take fish?" |
12483 | There is a delicious servantgirlism, often expressed in an answer given at the door to an inquirer:"Is your master at home, or mistress?" |
12483 | There is no male society and no concerts, and what do I care for dinners? |
12483 | There is this difference, however, in the local usage, that to say in Aberdeen, Will you take your haddock? |
12483 | They urged,"What gars ye tak up your bit papers to the pu''pit?" |
12483 | They were passing St. John''s, which had just been finished, and the countryman asked,"Whatna kirk was that?" |
12483 | This the boy not understanding, the master put the same question Aberdonicà ©,"Jemmy, fat was the hinner end o''Pharaoh?" |
12483 | Thus, with reference to human nature before the fall, a man was asked,"What kind of man was Adam?" |
12483 | To the question,"Is the bride rich?" |
12483 | To which he replied,"Sir, is it lawful at ony time to tell a lee?" |
12483 | To which, as if merely coming over the complainant''s language again, the answer was a grave"Whaur[55]?" |
12483 | Very quick, and rather peremptory,"Madam, do ye choice fish?" |
12483 | W. of Kinneff''Mem, winna ye tak the clock wi''ye?'' |
12483 | Whae''ll buy neeps?" |
12483 | What did he dee o''? |
12483 | What mere_ English_ word could have expressed a distinction so well in such a case as the following? |
12483 | What will be the spontaneous impression produced by looking back on bygone intercourses in life? |
12483 | When a southerner mentioned the death of a friend to a lady of the granite city, she asked,"Fat dee''d he o''?" |
12483 | When do your boys come? |
12483 | When he found the proposal was to build upon the tenure of 999 years, he quietly suggested,"Culd ye no mak it a_ thousand_? |
12483 | When it was announced that Mr. Thomas Thomson was dead, an Aberdeen friend of the family asked,"Fatten Thamas Thamson?" |

12483 | said his friend;"that was bold language; and what did they say to that?" |
12483 | said the man, under a strong sense of his own importance,"I''m the corp''s brither[168]?" |
12483 | she answered;"it was_ very wrong_; how can you expect to get better if you do not help yourself with the remedies which heaven provides for you?" |

38822 | And your wife, is she well? |
38822 | Are you too a Cameronian? |
38822 | But do n''t you think that it was rather cruel sport? |
38822 | But you have a little pinch occasionally-- in the cold and stormy winter weather? |
38822 | Can you make''the twa ends meet''at the close of the year? |

38822 | Did he belong to the established kirk? |
38822 | Did you know any thing of Sir Walter Scott? 38822 Do you mean the rock, Francis?" |
38822 | Even so,was the reply,"seven pounds; but how much then do they get with you?" |
38822 | Have you a cow? |
38822 | Have you any family, my friend? |
38822 | Hold your tongue, my lady fair; For what needs a''this sorrow? 38822 How many pounds go to a dollar?" |
38822 | I was then young, reckless, high- hearted: I was screwed up in that convent- like castle; my sweetheart was in the plain below--"Well, what then?" |
38822 | Lang Syne!--ah, where are they who shared With us its pleasures bright and blithe? 38822 Mine is the religion of the breast;"and if it be not, what is it worth? |
38822 | Sandy then got over his troubles, did he? |
38822 | The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God--was Burns an atheist? |
38822 | Weel, my lad,he would say, patting my head,"how d''ye do-- and how''s your faither, and how''s your mither? |

38822 | ''Have you hope?'' |
38822 | ( glad?) |
38822 | --Whose daughter''s she that wears the aurora gown, With face so fair, and locks o''lovely brown? |
38822 | A_ baron_ would be satisfied in Germany with such a revenue as that; and do you mean to say that there are schoolmasters who grumble at it?" |
38822 | After standing a few moments, the one said to the other,"Did you ever hear such preaching as that?" |
38822 | And a''the family, are they weel? |
38822 | And is this-- Yarrow?--This the stream Of which my fancy cherished So faithfully a waking dream? |
38822 | And mind ye o''the Saturdays,( The schule then skail''t[139] at noon,) When we ran aff to speel[140] the braes, The broomy braes o''June? |
38822 | And shall we tread that holy ground, And breathe that fragrant air; And view the fields with glory crowned In cloudless beauty fair? |
38822 | And these roses, the fairest that ever were seen? |
38822 | And when the Lord of the Universe hath shown us the amazing wonders of his various frame, should we think it hard, when he thinketh time, to dislodge? |
38822 | And whence this falling tear In sad remembrance of his merit just? |
38822 | And why yon melancholious weeds, Hung on the bonny birks o''Yarrow? |
38822 | Are we a piece of machinery, which like the à � olian harp, passive, takes the impression of the passing accident? |
38822 | Come, who is your mistress now?" |
38822 | Did he not accomplish a great and beneficial work of Reform; and, having done this, did he not die a sweet and triumphant death? |
38822 | Does not Holy Writ declare,"_ Blessed_ are the dead that die in the Lord?" |
38822 | Does not Scotland, however inferior, in some respects it may be deemed to other lands, possess a peculiar charm to all cultivated minds? |

38822 | Hae ye mark''d the dews o''morning, Glittering in the sunny ray, Quickly fa''when, without warning, Rough blasts came and shook the spray? |
38822 | Hae ye seen the bird fast fleeing, Drap when pierced by death mair fleet? |

38822 | Have you any land to cultivate?" |

38822 | How can I busk a bonny, bonny bride, How can I busk a winsome marrow, How lue him on the banks o''Tweed That slew my love on the braes o''Yarrow? |
38822 | How can I love to see thee shine So bright, whom I have bought so dear? |
38822 | How far came ye the day? |
38822 | How sparkling are her eyes? |
38822 | How, then, could honored Thomas Carlyle bring himself to affirm,"that Burns had no religion?" |
38822 | I know thy faithfulness, and need no more; Yet from the lab''rinth to lead out my mind, Say, to expose her, who was so unkind? |
38822 | I marvel, Jeanie Morrison, Gin[148] I hae been to thee, As closely twined wi''earliest thochts, As ye hae been to me? |
38822 | In them there is frequent, habitual recognition of the Creator; and who that finds joy and beauty in nature has not the same? |
38822 | Is that blue light the moon''s or tomb- fire''s gleam? |
38822 | Is that dull sound the hum of Teviot''s stream? |
38822 | Is this your daughter Glaud? |
38822 | It seems to us to utter the deep throbbings of the poet''s spirit:"Why am I loth to leave this earthly scene? |
38822 | Just when her notes began with skill To sound beneath the southern hill, And twine around my bosom''s core, How could we part forevermore? |
38822 | Kilmeny, Kilmeny, where have you been? |
38822 | Kilmeny, Kilmeny, where have you been? |
38822 | Knox, doubtless, had his faults; and what of that? |
38822 | O mind ye, luve, how aft we left The deavin''[142] dinsome[143] toun, To wander by the green burnside, And hear its waters croon? |
38822 | O mind[136] ye how we hung our heads, How cheeks brent red wi''shame, Whene''er the schule[137] weans laughin''said, We cleeked[138] thegither hame? |
38822 | Or death''s unlovely, dreary, dark abode? |
38822 | Or do these workings argue something within us above the trodden clod? |
38822 | Or have a thought that ought intrude Save birds and humming bees?" |
38822 | Or what of Scotland? |
38822 | Out and spak her father dear, Says,"What needs a''this sorrow? |
38822 | Pray, my good fellow, how would you propose to do that?" |
38822 | Some drops of joy, with draughts of ill between; Some gleams of sunshine''mid renewing storms; Is it departing pangs my soul alarms? |
38822 | Strange auld man, what art thou? |
38822 | Tell me, my dear friend, to what can this be owing? |
38822 | That bonny snook[173] o''the birk sae green? |
38822 | The young men were awed, and listened with reverent attention to the close, when the one, turning to the other, said,"And what d''ye think of that?" |
38822 | Then how should I for heavenly mercy pray; Who act so counter heavenly mercy''s plan, Who sin so oft have mourn''d, yet to temptation ran? |
38822 | Then stay thee, fair, in Ravensheuch; Why cross the gloomy Firth to- day?" |
38822 | They who forewent us did leave room for us; and should we grieve to do the same to those who should come after us? |
38822 | This the stream, Of which my fancy cherished So faithfully a waking dream, An image that hath perished?" |
38822 | Waking or asleep Thou of death must deem, Things more true and deep Than we mortals dream, Or how could thy note flow in such a crystal stream? |
38822 | Was St. Kessog a true martyr? |
38822 | Was he not a true man, and a true minister of God''s Word? |

38822 | Who, being suffered to see the exquisite rarities of an antiquary''s cabinet, is grieved that the curtain be drawn, and to give place to new pilgrims? |
38822 | Why didst thou leave the peasant''s turf- built cot, The ancient graves where all thy fathers lie, And Teviot''s stream that long has murmur''d by? |
38822 | Why on thy braes heard the voice o''sorrow? |
38822 | Why runs thy stream, O Yarrow, Yarrow, red? |
38822 | Will there be any heart still memory keeping, Of heretofore? |
38822 | Women will die or even grow old; and what are we to do? |
38822 | Would it be possible, think you, to storm the Castle from that side? |

44066 | Madam, I doubt not but that you were the very best Mason the sun ever shone upon, so let me alone, will you? |
44066 | Mike?" |
44066 | Oh, how could you leave me, and I so fond of ye? |
44066 | One hails our boy with the query,"I say, Tom, is that your family chariot?" |
44066 | Quick as thought comes the reply:"Yes, and I am in want of a mule; are_ you_ widout occupation?" |
44066 | The sleeping eyes half open as the happy man murmurs,"Was n''t you tryin''to stale my whiskey just now?" |
44066 | There is a little cove just under you where the waters murmur and whisper, but what of that? |
44066 | What could have been her dress in those days three hundred years agone? |
44066 | What exactly_ is_ a''buzz saw,''and what happened to the monkey?" |
44066 | What was he? |
44066 | What will America be, what will England be then? |
44066 | What''s that to_ you_?" |
44066 | Where did our great poets and essayists come from? |
44066 | Who does not remember the"tin man,"generally named John, who made his rounds with a tin- shop of no mean proportions crowding his red waggon? |
44066 | Why should these people mourn the advent of peace? |
44066 | Would it have been any satisfaction to those of the land which he had so oppressed to have known of the ending of this"Great King"? |
44066 | Would the Pope risk the friendship of the ruler of a great Empire for the sake of what Italians regard as''a mere eruption on the chin of the world''? |
44066 | [ Illustration: Photo by W. Leonard Kylemore Castle]"''Creature,''she says,''do you speak Hebrew?'' |
44066 | down to and including the reign of Mary the First? |
44066 | my lady,''says John, making his best bow,''and what ails you, darling stranger?'' |
44066 | she says,''and a golden girdle to give me?'' |
50791 | Now cheer up, sir Abbot, did you never hear yet, That a fool he may learn a wise man to wit? 50791 When,"exclaimed they,"will the first attack take place, by a man whom we have expected so long and anxiously? |
50791 | A man, by far the first of kings, and the most skilled in war throughout Christendom? |
50791 | After which, no one making answer, they repeated,"Where is the archbishop?" |
50791 | But what did the rashness and timidity of the devoted profit them? |
50791 | But what glory is there in fighting with a sick man? |
50791 | But who could reckon the sum of money which the citizens lost? |
50791 | But why need we say more? |
50791 | How hast thou lost thy defender? |
50791 | O why did he come so long a way and with so much toil, if he intended to return almost immediately? |
50791 | Speak out at once; is it your wish to have Samson?" |
50791 | What can we say of this race of unbelievers who thus defended their city? |
50791 | Who shall worthily relate the capture of Cyprus? |
50791 | Who will protect thee, should the truce be broken, now that King Richard is departed? |
50791 | _ D._ Is there a forest of the King in each county? |
50791 | _ D._ Ought not the occult death of an Anglo- Saxon like that of a Norman, to be reputed murder? |
50791 | _ D._ What is the reason of this name? |
50791 | _ Liveries.__ D._ What is that thou didst speak of as liveries of both kinds? |
50791 | _ What the Exchequer is, and what is the reason of this name.__ Disciple._ What is the exchequer? |
42359 | And did that vex thee? |
42359 | And have they taken him, Kinmont Willie, Against the truce of Border tide? 42359 And have they taken him, Kinmont Willie, Withouten either dread or fear, And forgotten that the bold Buccleugh, Can back a steed and shake a spear? |
42359 | And is there not,said he--"is there not some being like that for me; is there none on earth to whom I may speak of love? |
42359 | And what,asked Charles,"are the requisite qualities of such a wife?" |
42359 | But who is it, pray? |
42359 | But will ye stay till the day gae down, Until the night come o''er the grund, And I''ll be a guide worth ony twa That may in Liddesdale be found? 42359 Does a livelier hue delight? |
42359 | Fy on ye, woman, why ca''ye me man? 42359 Good morning, Tom,"said Sir Ferdinand,"what makes you laugh so this morning, Tom?" |
42359 | How can I confess them,Hobbie says,"When I never saw them with my e''e?" |
42359 | How hast thou managed thy revenge? |
42359 | In love,he replied, with a feeble laugh,"not I indeed, what can have given thee such an idea?" |
42359 | Now sound our trumpet,quoth Buccleugh, Let''s waken Lord Scrope, right merrilie; Then loud the Warder''s trumpet blew,"Wha daur meddle wi''me?" |
42359 | O is my helmet a widow''s cap, Or my lance a wand of the willow tree? 42359 O sleep ye, wake ye, Kinmont Willie, Upon the morn that thou''s to die?" |
42359 | Restored now, she op''d her radiant eyes, And looking gratitude ineffable,''Is it then you, Damoetas? 42359 Still is he my devoted knight?" |
42359 | What happened to vex thee? |
42359 | What is it,replied the undaunted Scot,"that a man dare not do?" |
42359 | What''s getten them? |
42359 | Wilt thou with us into England ride, And thy safe warrand we will be? 42359 All this was horror, but how faint the view To what too soon all real must ensue, Shall I relate how sunk each noble name? 42359 Am I, alone, of all my race doomed to drag on a long and weary life, a solitary, friendless creature? 42359 And forgotten that the bold Buccleugh Is keeper here on the Scottish side? 42359 And now, what is your will wi''me? |
42359 | And that then is his grave!--Before his death You say that he saw many happy years? |
42359 | And what is the simple maid to blame To be made of lust the prey? |
42359 | And what the lowly village priest That they so oft do slay? |
42359 | And when the doleful day of doom Shall call ye from the grave, From the crying blood of these innocents What tyrants shall ye save? |
42359 | And you believe, then, that his mind was easy? |
42359 | But this youth How did he die at last? |
42359 | But what became of the betrothed lovers? |
42359 | But what were his feelings as he approached the place of his nativity? |
42359 | But where''s the knight in all the north, That dare the adventure follow forth, So perilous to knightly worth, In the valley of St. John? |
42359 | By whom in that lone place espied? |
42359 | Can the thrones and crowns of kings Yield a joy as sweet as this? |
42359 | Can their splendour yield them bliss? |
42359 | Every tongue was inquiring,"Wha is she?" |
42359 | Full fain would I this hour delay, Thought weak the wish-- yet wilt thou stay? |
42359 | He immediately said,"Pray, where is the executioner? |
42359 | He touched; what followed who shall tell? |
42359 | If here he stay, What can be done? |
42359 | Is Triermain become your taunt, De Vaux your scorn? |
42359 | Lo, yonder doth Earl Harold come, Did one at table say:''Tis well, reply''d the mettl''d Duke, How will he get away? |
42359 | Nature all abounds in love, What is there but feels its power? |
42359 | No-- let me seek some cavern drear, Where not a sound can meet my ear, But groans of death, and shrieks of fear, The music of despair? |
42359 | Nor is there any one in sight All round, in hollow, or on height: Nor shout, nor whistle, strikes the ear; What is the creature doing here? |
42359 | Now civil war has spent its savage rage, Say, shall we now for anarchy engage? |
42359 | Now, when these merry tidings reach''d The Earl of Harold''s ears, And am I, quoth he, with an oath, Thus slighted by my peers? |
42359 | Obeying custom, I intend Some little birthday gift to send-- But stay, what must it be? |
42359 | Or my arm a lady''s lily hand, That an English Lord should lightly me? |
42359 | See how they gallop down yon rock!-- What mortal eye can bear the shock? |
42359 | Shall such a wretch as that presume to be my rival in the affections of the loveliest maid in Cumberland? |
42359 | Then James is still left among you? |
42359 | They ha''e ta''en him on for west Carlisle; They asked him if he ken''d the way? |
42359 | We''ll take another: who is he that lies Beneath yon ridge, the last of those three graves? |
42359 | What follows these?" |
42359 | What hath the husbandman done wrong That he must spoil his grain? |
42359 | What means the spectre? |
42359 | What mortal force shall bide their brunt? |
42359 | What the poor widow, and what the child, That they must all be slain? |
42359 | What then, Damoetas, were the dire alarms That rent thy manly bosom? |
42359 | What thought was Roland''s first when fell, In that deep wilderness, the knell Upon his startled ear? |
42359 | What''s attraction, pray, but love? |
42359 | Where every one is poor, What can be gained?" |
42359 | Where is the Maiden of mortal strain, That may match with the Baron of Trierman? |
42359 | Which of ye all Touched his harp with that dying fall, So sweet, so soft, so faint, It seem''d an angel''s whisper''d call To an expiring saint? |
42359 | Why intent To violate the tree, Thought Eglamore, by which I swore Unfading constancy? |
42359 | Will you take a dance with me, fair maiden?" |
42359 | Wroth wax''d the Warrior.--"Am I then Fool''d by the enemies of men, Like a poor hind, whose homeward way Is haunted by malicious fay? |
42359 | Your dalesmen, then, do in each other''s thoughts Possess a kind of second life: no doubt You, Sir, could help me to the history Of half these graves? |
42359 | exclaimed Sir Ferdinand, as soon as Will had retired,"Shall I be made a fool of by a carpenter''s son? |
42359 | exclaimed Will,"yan et darn''t luik at ya: yan etle stand eating his thooms, and just whisperen la doon,''will ya dance?'' |
42359 | inquired the son,"was thy father''s name Richard Fletcher?" |
42359 | tell me not of busy life-- Its bustling folly-- joyless strife-- Can these dispel my care? |
42359 | then I must hide myself, I must not go, with mine? |
42359 | war Dick better ner me?" |
45366 | ''How is it that his coming pleaseth thee more than that of any other king?'' 45366 ''What meaneth all this noise?'' |
45366 | Doubtless,cried the opponents,"he is our lord; but is it not enough for us to pay him his dues? |
45366 | Oh, king,exclaimed Godwin,"why is it that, on the slightest recollection of your brother, you always look so angrily on me? |
45366 | What need I fear of thee? 45366 What, though those golden eagles of the sun Have gone for ever, and we are alone, Shall we sit here and mourn? |
45366 | Who are these men advancing towards us? |
45366 | And are all our pious endeavours now frustrated by the dissolute lives of the priests? |
45366 | And what matters it whether or not we believe in all these mighty epochs? |
45366 | And whither should I fly, after having wandered through so many provinces in Britain without finding a shelter? |
45366 | Are not all such things so? |
45366 | As to my sister, whom the duke claims, to marry her to one of his chiefs, she died this year:--would he have me send him her body?" |
45366 | But what is the lot of a brave man but to die amongst the first? |
45366 | Could his seneschal have deceived him, or could they be so disloyal as to refuse to furnish him with the aid he required? |
45366 | Did I deny support and establishments to the clergy or the convents? |
45366 | Had the gifted young prince offended Edburga by refusing her hand, and was this jealousy aroused by queen Drida and her daughter? |
45366 | How can I escape my persecutor?" |
45366 | How looked those British fathers and husbands when they again met the Saxon slayers in battle? |
45366 | Now, if these gods had been of any real use, would they not have assisted me, instead of them? |
45366 | Ought we not, then, to feel alarmed, who covet them so much, yet are everyway as transient? |
45366 | Say what kings accompany thee?--how many have come with thee from the combat?'' |
45366 | Such fancies would naturally float over their benighted minds, for at what other conclusions could they arrive from what they now saw? |
45366 | The next question he asked was whether the inhabitants were Christians or Pagans? |
45366 | This is a grave charge; but where, with one or two exceptions, could he in his whole kingdom find a kindred mind to his own? |
45366 | Thou must also give thy sister in marriage to one of my barons"( Did he mean queen Editha?) |
45366 | Was my assistance ever wanting to the poor? |
45366 | What had he gained by the eight hard- fought battles he shared in the year before his accession to the crown? |
45366 | What matters it about the date when such things once were, or at what time or place they first appeared? |
45366 | What should we have known of the earlier Britons but for Julius Cæsar? |
45366 | What were the thoughts of Alfred while he looked full in the face of his enemy as he stood before him in his tent? |
45366 | What would we not now give to know all that he had seen? |
45366 | What would you have me do? |
45366 | What, are you amazed? |
45366 | When did you call for supplies which I refused you? |
45366 | When that my care could not withhold thy riots, What wilt thou do, when riot is thy care? |
45366 | Where is he that supported and feasted me? |
45366 | Who more likely than they to oppose his wise plans-- to thwart him when he was anxiously labouring for the good of his subjects? |
45366 | Who so blind, that he can not see the chain which now reached from Normandy to Rome-- the links, William, Lanfranc, and all the friends of the pope? |
45366 | Who so grateful as duke William-- who so highly honoured as the monk, Lanfranc, the man who had more power over the pontiff than the duke himself? |
45366 | Whom shall I praise, now Urien is no more? |
45366 | and are we not ourselves like a river, that hurries headlong and heedlessly along to the dark and illimitable ocean of time? |
45366 | exclaimed Braghi;''why are so many warriors in motion, and for whom are all these seats prepared?'' |
53473 | ''What shall I do for my wife?'' |
53473 | ''What,''he asked prophetically,''if the natives should rebel? |
53473 | He admitted that Bishop Leslie of Raphoe was learned, but then was he not a suffragan of Armagh? |
53473 | His work soon crumbled away, as the work of despots generally does, for who can secure a fitting successor? |
53473 | If the case of the newly- made freeholder stood thus, what must have been the feelings of men who were made altogether landless? |
53473 | Is it wonderful that the Scotch thirsted for his blood, or that he was believed, however untruly, to favour the religion of Rome? |
53473 | Is nothing exempted from it? |
53473 | Was there ever man such an Adonis, think you?'' |
53473 | What scandal of his Majesty''s service it might be in a time thus conditioned to employ a general and a whole army in a manner Roman Catholics? |
53473 | What, the Irish annalists ask, might not the young in this distinguished company have achieved if they had been allowed to grow up in Ireland? |
53473 | What,''he exclaimed,''if I had created 40 noblemen and 400 boroughs? |
53526 | Have you not,he exclaimed,"a number of chaplains, to whom ye have departed very liberally with spiritual promotions? |
53526 | ''What is it of the clock?'' |
53526 | --"Yea,"said he,"what though? |
53526 | A pamphlet published in 1536 says of him:"Who was less beloved in the north than my lord cardinal before he was amongst them? |
53526 | If heresies arise, is it my fault? |
53526 | Tried by this standard, who could hope to escape? |
53526 | What was the profit to Henry of Wolsey''s intricate foreign policy if it did not allow him to get a divorce when he pleased? |
53526 | Who better beloved after he had been there a while? |
53526 | Why should he deal tenderly with the papal authority when it threw such obstacles in his way? |
53526 | Why should he permit the slow transformation of the monasteries when with a little trouble their spoil would fall into his hands? |
53526 | Why should he spare the Church when its bishops protested against him? |
53526 | Wolsey angrily answered that Richard was a usurper and a murderer of his nephews; how could his acts be good? |
10351 | And as the character of the British merchants exempts them from any suspicion of practices pernicious to the publick, why should they be restrained? |
10351 | And do not the officers receive a reward which their service can not deserve? |
10351 | And for what other purpose, my lords, should such a change of our style be proposed? |
10351 | And how has any man been originally prejudiced against the present minister? |
10351 | And if the arguments which arise from success are equal on both sides, ought not the necessity of saving the publick money to turn the balance? |
10351 | And if we are thus obliged to form new schemes, must we not impute the defeat of the former to our own imprudent zeal, or unseasonable curiosity? |
10351 | And is it not possible that by one interruption upon another, our measures may be delayed, till they shall be ineffectual? |
10351 | And is it probable that the queen would have preferred money for troops, had she not been informed that it would be more easily obtained? |
10351 | And is not the chief question at a trial the past conduct of the person at the bar? |
10351 | And is not the owner''s fortune equally impaired, whether the ship is dashed upon a rock, or seized by a privateer? |
10351 | And shall our sailors lose the reward of their hazards and their labours, only because they have been successful? |
10351 | And that, therefore, it is prudent for every man, who can judge only upon the authority of others, to suspend his opinion? |
10351 | And what answer, sir, can we return to such remonstrances, unless this motion be agreed to? |
10351 | And what consequence but total ruin can arise from the prosecution of measures, by which we are already reduced to penury and contempt? |
10351 | And what consequences have they produced? |
10351 | And what is an army without discipline, subordination, and obedience? |
10351 | And what reason, sir, can be assigned, why that which is criminal in one man, should be innocent in another? |
10351 | And who will expect that those will defend their allies, who desert themselves? |
10351 | And yet, my lords, it is inquired why the people assert that there is a_ sole_ minister? |
10351 | Are the determinations of the judges set in opposition to the decrees of the senate? |
10351 | Are they bargemen or watermen, who ply on rivers and transport provision or commodities from one inland town to another? |
10351 | Are they to sit at ease only because they are idle, or to be distinguished with indulgence only for want of deserving it? |
10351 | Are we to confess that we have now for two sessions voted in the dark, and approved what we were not suffered to examine and understand? |
10351 | Are_ seafaring_ men those only who navigate in the_ sea_? |
10351 | As our need of seamen, sir, is immediate, why should not a law for their encouragement immediately operate? |
10351 | But if this objection could be surmounted by severity and vigilance, would not this expedient help to defeat the general intention of the bill? |
10351 | But of this boundless usurpation, my lords, what proof has been laid before you? |
10351 | But what are fleets unfurnished with men? |
10351 | But what interest can be gratified by a man who is not master of his own actions, nor secure in the enjoyment of his acquisitions? |
10351 | But what reason, sir, can be assigned for which it must be more difficult to supply the fleet now with sailors than at any other time? |
10351 | But what, sir, have those urged in defence of their own opinions, who so freely animadvert upon the reasonings of others? |
10351 | But which of your lordships will affirm, that this is now the state of Europe? |
10351 | But, my lords, if any man may be condemned unheard, if judgment may precede evidence, what safety or what confidence can integrity afford? |
10351 | But, sir, is not the spirit of our enemies the consequence rather of our cowardice than of their own strength? |
10351 | Can this be termed a chimerical suspicion, which nothing can be produced to support? |
10351 | Every seafaring man is to be seized, at pleasure, by the magistrate; but what definition is given of a seafaring man? |
10351 | For how could those be refused in their age the comforts of ease and repose, who have served their country with their youth and vigour? |
10351 | For how far may such a retrospect be extended? |
10351 | For upon what are they founded, but upon the impossibility of executing such designs? |
10351 | For what will be imagined by his majesty, by the nation, and by the whole world, but that we did not approve what we did not answer? |
10351 | For who will bring up his son a waterman, who knows him exposed by that profession to be impressed for a seaman? |
10351 | For who will support those from whom no mutual support can be expected? |
10351 | For, my lords, what is the evidence of common fame, which has been so much exalted, and so confidently produced? |
10351 | From a man who is condemned to labour and to danger, only that others may fatten with indolence, and slumber without anxiety? |
10351 | From a man who is dragged to misery without reward, and hunted from his retreat, as the property of his master? |
10351 | How can his true opinion be discovered? |
10351 | How can power appear but by the exercise of it? |
10351 | How can we approve measures, of which we discover no effect but the expense of the nation? |
10351 | How has the conduct of his present majesty any resemblance with that of Charles the first? |
10351 | How is all this to be effected without murmurs, mutinies, or discontent, but by the natural and easy method of offering rewards? |
10351 | How long, then, my lords, and in what degree must it have been established, to obtain undoubted credit, and when does it commence infallible? |
10351 | How or when have they forfeited the common privilege of human nature, or the general protection of the laws of their country? |
10351 | How shall a law be executed, or a penalty inflicted, when the magistrate has no certain marks whereby he may distinguish a criminal? |
10351 | How soon may the Dutch see their barrier attacked, and call upon us for the ten thousand men which we are obliged to send them? |
10351 | How soon may the house of Austria be so distressed, as to require all our power for its preservation? |
10351 | How then, my lords, can it be asserted by us, that the house of Austria has been vigilantly supported? |
10351 | How will it be more reasonable to drag these men from their houses, than to seize any other gentleman upon his own estate? |
10351 | How will they maintain the dominion of the sea, by lying unactive in our harbours? |
10351 | I am asked, whether it is not the chief question at the bar of our courts of justice, what is the character of the prisoner? |
10351 | If a man may be punished, sir, by a law made after the fact, how can any man conclude himself secure from the jail or the gibbet? |
10351 | If any man shall refuse to pay his rates or his taxes, will not his goods be seized by force, and sold before his face? |
10351 | If he did not intend a parallel between ship- money and the present bill, to what purpose was his observation? |
10351 | If he is only endeavouring to gain what has been forcibly withheld from him, what right have we to obstruct his undertaking? |
10351 | If it be inquired what necessity there is for our present forces? |
10351 | If our danger, sir, be such as has been represented, to whom must we impute it? |
10351 | If short voyages are not comprehended in this provision, what are we now controverting? |
10351 | If the credulity of the people exposes them to so easy an admission of every report, why have the writers for the minister found so little credit? |
10351 | If the sailor, sir, is exposed to greater dangers in time of war, is not the merchant''s trade carried on, likewise, at greater hazard? |
10351 | If this sum is really intended to support the queen of Hungary, may we not inquire how it is to be employed for her service? |
10351 | If we consult history, my lords, how seldom do we find an innocent minister overwhelmed with infamy? |
10351 | In the mean time, sir, how much shall we embarrass our own commerce, and impair our natural strength-- the power of our fleets? |
10351 | Inquire, says he, of the workmen in the docks, have they not double wages for double labour? |
10351 | Is a man, who has once only lost sight of the shore, to be for ever hunted as a seaman? |
10351 | Is a man, who has purchased an estate, and built a seat, to solicit the admiralty for a protection from the neighbouring constable? |
10351 | Is a man, who, by traffick, has enriched a family, to be forced from his possessions by the authority of an impress? |
10351 | Is a soldier to fatten on delicacies, and to revel in superfluities, for fourpence a- day? |
10351 | Is any man injured in his property by an unlimited extension of the prerogative? |
10351 | Is any money levied by order of the council? |
10351 | Is any villain there convicted but by the influence of his character? |
10351 | Is fame rather a settled opinion, prevailing by degrees, and for some time established? |
10351 | Is he to change his fare, with all the capriciousness of luxury, and relieve, by variety, the squeamishness of excess? |
10351 | Is it intended, by this motion, that the innkeepers shall judge what ought to be allowed the soldier for his money? |
10351 | Is it not, therefore, evident, my lords, that by promising assistance to this unhappy princess, the ministry intended to deceive her? |
10351 | Is it reasonable that any man should rate his labour according to the immediate necessities of those that employ him? |
10351 | Is it to be sent her for the payment of her armies, and the support of her court? |
10351 | Is not the freight, equally with the sailors, threatened at once by the ocean and the enemy? |
10351 | Is there any apparent advantage to be gained by assuming a false character? |
10351 | Is there any improbability in the nature of the fact, that should incline us to suspect his veracity? |
10351 | It having been observed by some of the members, that it was printed in one of the daily papers, he was asked, who carried it thither? |
10351 | It is first to be inquired, my lords, whether the reports of fame are necessarily or even probably true? |
10351 | It is then right to vest some persons with the power of apprehending him, and in whom is that power to be lodged, but in the civil magistrate? |
10351 | It was to little purpose that he laid down the petition, if he placed it within reach of his inspection? |
10351 | May it not be lavished to support that power, to which our grants have too long contributed? |
10351 | May not the sum demanded for the support of the queen of Hungary be employed to promote very different interests? |
10351 | May they not justly, sir, require of their representatives some reason for such inexplicable conduct? |
10351 | May we not all justly hope, that alacrity, unanimity, and prudence, may, in a much shorter time, reduce our enemies to beg for peace? |
10351 | Might we not hope for success, if we have calculated the events of war, and made a suitable preparation? |
10351 | Of this, my lords, can it be maintained that they have no proof? |
10351 | Or by what characteristick is the magistrate to distinguish him? |
10351 | Or can it be charged upon him that he enjoys more than his share of the felicities of life? |
10351 | Or how shall we fix such fugitive reasonings, such variable rhetorick? |
10351 | Or upon what motive can he act who will not become more happy by doing his duty? |
10351 | Or what dangers are feared? |
10351 | Or what passion or interest can any man gratify, by imagining or declaring his country on the verge of ruin? |
10351 | Or why is not that proper to be advanced now, that will be proper in twenty days? |
10351 | Or why should he repel the injuries which will make no addition to his misery, and will fall only on those to whom he is enslaved? |
10351 | Or why should officers expose themselves to the hazard of censure without advantage? |
10351 | Or with what propriety can it be mentioned in our debates, or produce an argument on either side? |
10351 | Ought not some limits to be set to his expectations, and some restraints prescribed to his appetite? |
10351 | Ought we not rather to animate them by our activity, instruct them by our example, and awaken them by our representations? |
10351 | Ought we not to catch the alarm while it is possible to make preparation against the danger? |
10351 | Ought we not to improve, with the utmost diligence, the important interval? |
10351 | Perhaps the other powers say to themselves, and to one another, Why should we keep that treaty which Britain is violating? |
10351 | That it involves a multitude of relations, and is diffused through a great variety of circumstances? |
10351 | The debate upon this particular, will be at length reduced to a question, whether a law for this purpose is just and expedient? |
10351 | The doorkeeper was called in, and, being shown the paper, was asked from whom he received it? |
10351 | To these ravages and injuries what did we oppose? |
10351 | To what purpose are rewards offered, if they are denied to those who come to claim them? |
10351 | Upon whom are our weakness, our poverty, and our miseries to be charged? |
10351 | Were our fleets manned in an instant? |
10351 | What advantage can arise from delays? |
10351 | What but humble intreaties, pacifick negotiations, and idle remonstrances? |
10351 | What but poverty and distractions at home, and the contempt and insults of foreign powers? |
10351 | What but the expedience of a law that will never be executed? |
10351 | What can prove any degree of influence or authority, but universal submission and acknowledgment? |
10351 | What could be expected from their councils and direction? |
10351 | What expeditions are designed? |
10351 | What greater calamity has that man to expect, who has been already deprived of his liberty, and reduced to a level with thieves and murderers? |
10351 | What have the Spaniards suffered that can be opposed to the detriment which the commerce of this nation feels from the detention of our sailors? |
10351 | What part of this transaction, my lords, can be supposed to fall under the cognizance of this assembly? |
10351 | What proofs, sir, have they given of the superiority of their own abilities, of the depth of their researches, or the acuteness of their penetration? |
10351 | What will be the event of these commotions who can discover? |
10351 | What will this be less than making their bravery a crime or folly, and punishing them for not protracting the war by cowardice or treachery? |
10351 | When two armies, modelled according to these different schemes, enter the field, what event can be expected? |
10351 | Whence comes it, my lords, that falsehood is more successful than truth, and that the nation is inclined to complain rather than to triumph? |
10351 | Who can assure us that this law will not be perverted, after the example of others? |
10351 | Who is there by whom such negligence will not be resented? |
10351 | Who is there, my lords, whose indignation is not raised at such ignominy? |
10351 | Who would not have been terrified, my lords, at a treaty like this? |
10351 | Why have no complaints been made by those that have been injured? |
10351 | Why is his guilt supposed greater if his power is only equal? |
10351 | Why must the sailors alone, sir, be marked out from all the other orders of men for ignominy and misery? |
10351 | Why must they be ranked with the enemies of society, stopped like vagabonds, and pursued like the thief and the murderer by publick officers? |
10351 | Why should he be solicitous to increase his property, who may be torn from the possession of it in a moment? |
10351 | Why should not they be most diligent in the prosecution of an affair who have most to lose by its miscarriage? |
10351 | Why should we believe that they will suffer without complaint, and be injured without resentment? |
10351 | Why should we expose ourselves to danger, of which that mighty nation, so celebrated for courage, is afraid? |
10351 | Why should we imagine that the race of men for whom those cruelties are preparing, have less sensibility than ourselves? |
10351 | Why should we rush into war, in which our most powerful ally seems unwilling to support us? |
10351 | Will it not be readily believed, that we propose to abandon those designs of which we can not be persuaded to declare our approbation? |
10351 | Will the breach of faith in others excuse it in us? |
10351 | With what spirit, sir, will he draw his sword upon his invaders, who has nothing to defend? |
10351 | Would he not ask, why the general practice of mankind is charged as a crime upon him only? |
10351 | Would not such measures animate our enemies, and invite an invasion? |
10351 | Would not the sailors refuse to contract with them? |
10351 | Would they not soon consider themselves as a separate community, whose interests were, no less than their laws, peculiar to themselves? |
10351 | [ Several other lords spoke in the debate, and the president having put the previous question,"Whether the question should be then put?" |

10351 | and how the fleet may be manned with less detriment to commerce? |
10351 | and that there will not be wretches found that may employ it to the extortion of money, or the gratification of revenge? |
10351 | and whether they do not raise clamours against the government for their ill success, to avoid the suspicion of negligence or fraud? |
10351 | did we surprise our enemies by our expedition, and make conquests before an invasion could be suspected? |
10351 | how the nation may be secured without injury to individuals? |
10351 | or any tribunal established superiour to the laws of the nation? |
10351 | or at what time, after having intruded into the house, can any man presume to consider himself as exempt from the danger of imprisonment? |
10351 | or desert them after a contract, upon the first prospect of more advantageous employment? |
10351 | or how can he maintain forces without supplies? |
10351 | or that he should raise his own fortune by the publick calamities? |

38452 | Could he indeed trust the brothers? |
38452 | Could he, then, every day, arraign their policy and feel confidence in them? |
38452 | Did ever mother, brother, and sisters study one another''s ruine and destruction more than my unfortunate and cursed family have done?'' |
38452 | Did he devote old Sarum to the Bank? |
38452 | Did the subjects of his kingdom lack that prudent foresight which his subjects of the electorate possessed in so eminent a degree? |
38452 | Do not you think Lady Betty( Germaine) and Lord and Lady Vere would be ready to help me, if they knew how willing I am? |
38452 | For how could he fail under existing circumstances to be suspicious? |
38452 | For if a Cabinet have taken upon them to conclude treaties of subsidy without the consent of Parliament, shall they not answer for their action?'' |
38452 | Had Newcastle lifted a finger to procure him the succession to Bedford? |
38452 | Had we inflicted any damage on the enemy? |
38452 | Have they lost their virtue, or is it only the necessary faith which has disappeared? |
38452 | He understood Pitt to say that he had refused the Secretaryship of State: pray, had he? |
38452 | He was a truly English minister, and kept a strict hand on the Closet; when he was removed the door was flung open( to dangerous advisers?). |
38452 | Her armies were now in Alsace; where would they stop? |
38452 | How are they visible in the sunlight of achievement? |
38452 | How could an open country be defended against an enemy who could march 150,000 men into it, and if necessary reinforce them by as many more? |
38452 | How could men so guilty meet their countrymen?'' |
38452 | How did he pass these three years? |
38452 | How do''s Ld Cornbury? |
38452 | How indeed could he, as a man of sense, much more as a man of rare capacity? |
38452 | How shall I find words to express my sense of the great condescension and kindness of expression with which it is writ? |
38452 | How then was he to obtain a foothold in the ministry? |
38452 | How was it then that the cripple of forty- six suddenly flung away his crutches to throw himself at the feet of this mature young lady? |
38452 | How was it worth his while to become Vice- Treasurer of Ireland? |
38452 | How was the King to know where they are to be found? |
38452 | How would Ministers be able to meet the aspect of so many citizens dismayed? |
38452 | How would Pitt appear to us had he died when he was still forty- seven? |
38452 | I have had no answer from him to my last letter; have you?'' |
38452 | I hope little Jug is still talking at Boconnock; how Fares it with my Statira, my angry Dear? |
38452 | If he refuses to join her will she not threaten to leave him at the mercy of Russia? |
38452 | If so, when and where? |
38452 | Is it the want of conversation That denies you matter, or the entire engagement to it that wo n''t allow you time for a letter? |
38452 | Is not this the language of Billingsgate? |
38452 | Is there not here an anxious and thoughtful affection, distorted grievously by the implacable animosity of the nephew? |
38452 | It is clear that the negotiation was illusory and unreal; for what less terms could Newcastle have expected Pitt to demand? |
38452 | May not frequent reproaches upon one subject gall and irritate a mind not conscious, intentionally at least, of giving cause?'' |
38452 | May ye 21: 1731._ What shall I say to my Dearest Nanny for sinking into a tenderness below ye dignity of her spirit and Genius? |
38452 | Murray indeed had boasted that 140,000 of the best troops in Europe were provided for the defence of-- what? |
38452 | Must we drain, he asked, presumably in obscure allusion to Russia, our last vital drop and send it to the North Pole? |
38452 | Or did he not, that envied rank to gain, Transfer the victim to the Treasury''s fame?'' |
38452 | Pray what do you intend to do with yourself this winter? |
38452 | Qu''y a- til de plus obligeant Pour moi ou de plus injuste pour vous meme? |
38452 | Suppose Thebes and Sparta and the other Greek Commonwealths fallen from their former power, would Athens have gone on alone and paid all the rest? |
38452 | The French commander sent to ask''Is it peace or war?'' |
38452 | Then the King, with still increasing acuteness, asked,''Suppose Pitt will not serve with you?'' |
38452 | To what does this charge really amount? |
38452 | Vous me demandez le Portrait de la Belle: faites vous bien attention à quoi vous m''allez engager? |
38452 | Walpole, in recording and eulogising it, says:''You will ask, what could be beyond this? |
38452 | Was everything to be called invective that had not the smoothness of a court compliment? |
38452 | Was it by that that we were to be saved? |
38452 | Was it for the purpose of marine treaties? |
38452 | Was it not more honourable to respect a man when his power had come to an end than before? |
38452 | Was it not that he would not approve of the Russian and Hessian treaties? |
38452 | Was it to raise more men? |
38452 | Was the anxiety for office the mere craving of the politician for reward, or was it the real consciousness of capacity, purity, and inspiration? |
38452 | Was the dignity of the House on so sure a foundation that we could afford to shake it with scoffs?'' |
38452 | Was there ever so strange a situation? |
38452 | Was there then living a statesman who would have acted differently? |
38452 | Were we ourselves within the House to try and lessen that dignity when such attacks were made upon it from without that it was almost lost? |
38452 | Were we safe? |
38452 | Were we to continue fighting? |
38452 | What can Frederick answer if France proposes to march an army into Germany? |
38452 | What did Sir Thomas know about it? |
38452 | What do they matter? |
38452 | What glimpses are there meanwhile of Pitt? |
38452 | What good did his glory procure to his country? |
38452 | What if a ministry should spring out of this subsidy? |
38452 | What is genius? |
38452 | What is this strange career? |
38452 | What is''political courage''in a constitutional Sovereign? |
38452 | What need of further explanation? |
38452 | What of the Colonies? |
38452 | What other could he be? |
38452 | What power was it that was sought, what kind of power, was it only that of doing good? |
38452 | What shall I talk of to my dear Girl? |
38452 | What that of Tiberius, had he died at sixty? |
38452 | What then remains? |
38452 | What was he to do? |
38452 | What was this vote of credit for? |
38452 | What would Walpole have said had the monarch shown''political courage''and insisted on having his own stubborn way? |
38452 | What would have been the place in history of Napoleon III., had Orsini been a successful assassin? |
38452 | What, then, if the Pretender should land at the head of a French force? |
38452 | What, we may ask in passing, has become of the efficacious nymphs of all these wells? |
38452 | Which, dear Sir, looks most like a monopoly?'' |
38452 | Who indeed was there to attack him? |
38452 | Who is the biggest man to attack, the man by combating whom one can acquire the most honour and reputation? |
38452 | Who should lead the House of Commons? |
38452 | Why did Pitt take this line? |
38452 | Why if that were so, asked Pitt, did we not hire of Russia ships rather than men? |
38452 | Why is this attempted? |
38452 | Why, indeed, should Pitt trust Newcastle, whom no one had ever trusted, and whom Pitt must have measured and known to the very marrow of his bones? |
38452 | Why, then, should it be doubted that he indicated him as his heir, when, in truth, he had no other? |
38452 | Why? |
38452 | Will they not irritate Prussia and light up a general war? |
38452 | Would any lawyer plead that when his Britannic Majesty speaks of dominions in a treaty, he can mean any but his British dominions? |
38452 | Would he have been a great popular orator at mass meetings and the like? |
38452 | [ 276]''Could you bear to act under Fox?'' |
38452 | [ 358] Was Pitt right in refusing the concurrence of Fox? |
38452 | [ 41] Or 1787? |
38452 | [ 60] Dr. Ayscough? |
38452 | [ 92] Who was the chief of this combination? |
38452 | [ In another hand, evidently Lady Suffolk''s] how often my Dear Child have I wish''d you here? |
38452 | _ I_ would have warned the King: did_ he_? |
38452 | direct to me at Stow I am more here than at Touster[? Towcester]. |
38452 | exclaimed an enthusiastic alderman:''is not this enough to fire the coldest? |
38452 | how can I have got so far in my paper, and not a word of the King of Kings whose last Glories transcend all the parts? |
38452 | is it to make Mr. Pelham more regretted? |
38452 | je viens de quitter Besancon avec infiniment de regrets: voulez vous que je me confesse à vous? |
38452 | ne guerirez vous jamais de cette modestie outrée? |
38452 | wrote the satirist,''Who''s dat who ride astride de pony, So long, so lank, so lean and bony? |
6134 | Was there a man dismayed? 6134 And the Briton himself-- what became of him? 6134 If engines could be made to plough through the water, why might they not also be made to walk the earth? 6134 If such was the condition of the honest working poor, what was that of the criminal? 6134 Is it strange that the plantation in Massachusetts had fresh recruits? 6134 Is not every type of English manhood explained by such an inheritance? 6134 Was it not from their impious hands, that this new knowledge of the physical universe had been received? 6134 What sort of a race were they? 6134 What would be the need of a Parliament, if he did not require money? 56429 Ah, say, art thou ambitious? |
56429 | But what if it were three shillings? |
56429 | Four-- five-- six-- seven-- what would you do with the money? |
56429 | If any one were to give you a shilling, my dear,he said,"what would you do with it?" |
56429 | Well,he continued,"if any one were to give you two shillings, what would you do?" |
56429 | For what did those men live and labour? |
56429 | He who was himself as a little child, in his innocence, goodness, and truth,--where else and how else could he so fitly rest? |
56429 | I looked up at him and I replied,''She_ is_ your wife, is n''t she?'' |
56429 | Is there any in the world like it? |
56429 | Oh, does the flush of youth adorn thy face And dost thou deem it lasting? |
56429 | To what were their shining talents and wonderful forces devoted? |
56429 | Who can tell? |
56429 | [ Illustration:_ Approach to Ambleside._] What were the sights of those sweet days that linger still, and will always linger, in my remembrance? |
56429 | dost thou chase The phantom Fame, in fairy colours drest, Expecting all the while to win the race? |
56429 | dost thou crave The hero''s wreath, the poet''s meed of praise? |
56429 | thy young breast-- Oh, does it pant for honours? |
49701 | But the man who was stabbed-- he must know who did it? |
49701 | Does the doctor give any hope? |
49701 | How do all these people get money? |
49701 | It''s you, is it? |
49701 | Really? |
49701 | Shall we do it to- night? |
49701 | So you have moved from-------- Street? |
49701 | Then why is that large trunk of yours addressed to''The Station Master, Berlin-- To be called for''? |
49701 | Then why,I asked,"did n''t they have him put under restraint?" |
49701 | What sort of a shop? |
49701 | What was your brother''s name? |
49701 | What will become of us? |
49701 | Who is that? |
49701 | But everybody said,"What does it matter to him? |
49701 | But to how many people did the most dramatic feature of the tragedy present itself? |
49701 | Did he personate an insured person to oblige someone else? |
49701 | Do you see a broad- shouldered, burly, kindly- looking man walking quietly along the street? |
49701 | He uttered a cry of alarm and exclaimed,"What does this mean?" |
49701 | How are you?" |
49701 | How could the body be disposed of? |
49701 | How did he come to sew another man''s name in his clothing, and then deliberately commit suicide? |
49701 | How did he cross the heath and lie down to poison himself and die without wetting the soles of his boots? |
49701 | How did their change of fortune come? |
49701 | Is it possible that a Russian deserter has made his way from Mukden to Whitechapel? |
49701 | Or was it a case of dual identity? |
49701 | She is the living image of a woman who was in my charge ten years ago-- Mrs.----------; you remember the case?" |
49701 | Well, you are going to stay here for some time, I suppose?" |
49701 | What became of him? |
49701 | What can be done? |
49701 | What does she want? |
49701 | What stroke of evil fortune brought them to this last ditch in the fight with Fate? |
49701 | What was the good? |
49701 | What''s been the matter in your place? |
49701 | Where are his parents? |
49701 | Where has he come from? |
49701 | Who are they? |
49701 | Who that sat near those two little boys as they cheered a boundary hit would have thought that they had that morning murdered their mother? |
49701 | Why, then, has he bought twenty sets? |
49701 | Why, under these circumstances, is there no home for him-- no position open to him in which at least he could earn the rent of a private lodging? |
49701 | Would the school- mistress, knowing the facts, take the children? |
52740 | Are those the little things with which you fight the Zeppelins? |
52740 | Dangerous? |
52740 | Go where? |
52740 | How often did she drill you? |
52740 | Is it going off? |
52740 | No Volunteer manoeuvers to- day? |
52740 | Surrender? |
52740 | Then you''ve been here during the rising? |
52740 | What''s your name? |
52740 | When did you come to Dublin? |
52740 | Who taught you to shoot like that? |
52740 | Would poets, pedagogues, and dreamers dare to lead the Irish people against the imperial power that had dominated them for centuries? 52740 Could I have made a mistake? 52740 Could all the family be somewhere else? 52740 Did they scurry away to grow up into better British subjects? 52740 How else would we dare to revolt against the British Empire? 52740 Is it any wonder that the wordrent"has a fearful sound to the Irish? |
52740 | It is sung to the tune of"Who Fears to Speak of''98?" |
52740 | No man has complained, no man has asked"why?". |
52740 | No man has complained, no man has asked''why?''. |
52740 | Or are we content to remain as slaves and idly watch the final extermination of the Gael? |
52740 | Presently news came from Dublin that James Connolly had written a play entitled,"Under which Flag?" |
52740 | The man who sung it, called Brian na Banba, was deported by the English after the rising: HARP OR LION? |
52740 | What could have happened? |
52740 | What could it mean? |
52740 | What if school- boys under a Gaelic name_ did_ play at soldiering? |
52740 | What if some of the sagas, revived by archæologists,_ did_ picture Irish heroism? |
52740 | What if the theme of play or poem_ was_ a free Ireland? |
52740 | What was this British reasoning that determined who should go in company with his fellows and who should go alone? |
52740 | What, then, could they be expected to do to a body of men who stood for law and order instead of opposing it as in Ulster? |
52740 | Where was she? |
52740 | Who dares its fate deplore? |
52740 | Who would want to engage in business in a place where such high hopes had been blasted? |
52740 | Why were these men not treated as prisoners of war? |
52740 | Would that disturb him, I wondered? |
52740 | and begins: Who fears to speak of Easter Week? |
657 | How more rueful? |
657 | Moreover, we might ask, if our whole dependence had been centered in Bede, what would have become of us after his death? |
657 | This year Aethan, King of the Scots, fought against the Dalreods and against Ethelfrith, king of the North- humbrians, at Daegsanstane[ Dawston? |
657 | To those who are unacquainted with this monument of our national antiquities, two questions appear requisite to be answered:--"What does it contain?" |
657 | What shall I say? |
657 | What then? |
657 | Who could be angry after this? |
657 | Who will not be penetrated with grief at such a season? |
657 | and,"By whom was it written?" |
657 | or who is so hardhearted as not to weep at such misfortune? |
47990 | But surely,I said,"you must know these that are so common-- these little blue flowers, for instance, what do you call them?" |
47990 | Do you mean that? |
47990 | Do you not then see anything to admire in it? |
47990 | He said it were a hundred years since he saw me-- now what did parson mean by that? |
47990 | How far is it to Zennor? |
47990 | I wonder,he wrote,"did you see much of the marvellous migration scene which took place here on Friday morning? |
47990 | I wonder,said I,"what has become of the others? |
47990 | What are those? |
47990 | What does this mean? |
47990 | What would you get,I asked them,"if one of the men caught you stoning the gulls?" |
47990 | What, then, did you have them in your pockets for? |
47990 | Why, Billy, whatever have you got there? |
47990 | Ai n''t they pretty?" |
47990 | And what do the landlords git? |
47990 | And why had he not been warned? |
47990 | Being on the land, what else could he be? |
47990 | But what about the charge? |
47990 | But what are the facts of the case as to the condition of Cornwall, with regard to drunkenness, before its conversion to Methodism? |
47990 | But who was Mr. Ebblethwaite, and what was it he did about the gulls? |
47990 | But who, beyond the line or two, has ever in verse or prose said anything in praise of the furze? |
47990 | But you ca n''t have something for nothing, can you? |
47990 | Did any of them town idlers, them that worked a day or two once a week or month-- did they knaw what the land gave? |
47990 | Did they knaw what''tis to git up before dawn every day, Sundays as well, and work all day till after dark, all just for a bare living? |
47990 | Here there are great blocks and slabs of granite which have been artificially hollowed into basins-- for what purpose, who shall say? |
47990 | I wonder if it''s some very old pilchards they''ve found stowed away in some corner?" |
47990 | Now can you tell me what bird was that?" |
47990 | Shall they refuse to take any good thing he chooses to send them? |
47990 | The others were silent for a little, and then one said,"Do you think it wise to say much about everlasting punishment at the present juncture?" |
47990 | The question, Did the Cornish people have a sense of humour? |
47990 | They may appear equally inconsistent-- the Somerset man and the Cornishman-- but can we say that one is morally worse than the other? |
47990 | To live without work? |
47990 | Was there a particle of truth in it? |
47990 | What are they, these other islands, and what do we know of them? |
47990 | What did they think they''d get? |
47990 | What do they mean, then, by saying the land will pay? |
47990 | What is the reason of this? |
47990 | What will happen now? |
47990 | What, then, did they expect? |
47990 | Who''s to pay for it then? |
47990 | Why are the Cornish more temperate than others? |
47990 | Will it? |
47990 | With regard to honesty it is one I always hear with surprise; for can it be said that we are as a people honest? |
47990 | what are those fellows making such a to- do about-- down there on that chimney- pot? |
6064 | ''What are those?'' |
6064 | ''Woman, what is your husband, and your name?'' |
6064 | But what earthly comfort is exempt from change? |
6064 | But when the rebels went to give an account to Cromwell of their meritorious act, he immediately asked them where Mr. Fanshawe was? |
6064 | Como estays? |
6064 | Inojosa?] |
6064 | Now if we do him wrong in this, why should we not right him whilst he is yet under the notion of Resident? |
6064 | Says one to the Englishman,''Did you ever know where bats dwell?'' |
6064 | The ceremony between them was very short, and yet all that passed was ceremony; Como venis? |
6064 | Then he demanded where his papers and his family were? |
55405 | ''Could not I have done that as well?'' |
55405 | ''Do you think,''said Clarendon,''you shall be rid of him by it? |
55405 | ''Is the King so cock- sure of his army?'' |
55405 | ''What, gentlemen, are you for another''41?'' |
55405 | ''What,''he said,''shall I do with the sword? |
55405 | FOOTNOTES:[ 296]_ Or_(?) |
55405 | He put himself at the head of the Enniskillen cavalry, saying,''What will you do for me?'' |
55405 | His whole career is a comment on Wellington''s question-- How is the King''s government to be carried on? |
55405 | If otherwise, he concluded,''who am I? |
55405 | Shall I throw it into the kennel?'' |
55405 | Were they, he asked, all to be cast out for one fault? |
55405 | What shall we say unto these things? |
55405 | Why should they breed more cattle since it was penal to import them into England? |
55405 | but why does he stay behind? |
55405 | what can it be farther up in the country?'' |
52473 | ''A girl?'' |
52473 | ''Oh, a boy?'' |
52473 | ''Pray, sir, may I ask what department you belong to?'' |
52473 | ''Slip off at three?'' |
52473 | ''Stroll in,''said the minister, in surprise;''then I presume you do not leave until a late hour?'' |
52473 | ''Two hundred mortars being expected from France and England, can the town be destroyed by this means and an assault obviated?'' |
52473 | ''Was you ever engaged at the Surrey in London?'' |
52473 | ''Who?'' |
52473 | But is this really essential? |
52473 | Can it be taken? |
52473 | During dinner he turned gravely to one of the old Indian officers and said,''Can you tell me, what is a dhobie?'' |
52473 | He asked him about his Victoria Cross, and then, seeing he had the Crimean medal and clasp for Inkerman, said:''Were you at that battle?'' |
52473 | He said:''Why all this pressing to send British officers, when you declare that you have no wish to interfere in the internal affairs of Afghanistan? |
52473 | He went up to Sir Edward, and remarked:''You lost your leg in the Crimea?'' |
52473 | I asked, where and what to do, neither enemy nor guns being in sight? |
52473 | It is related that on his arrival he inquired of Sir Alexander if he remembered the last occasion on which they had met? |
52473 | Looking about the room, and seeing a general officer at some distance, he inquired:''Who is that great man in a red coat?'' |
52473 | On this being brought to his notice, it is said, and I believe truly, that he observed:"Not loyal to the English? |
52473 | One, looking over the parapet, said to his comrade:"Alphonse, êtes- vous prêt?" |
52473 | Presently he turned round to me and said,''You wo n''t be offended, will you?'' |
52473 | Subject considered:''A telegraphic despatch from England, Can the town be destroyed? |
52473 | Subject:''Whether, in case the town should not fall before the winter, it may not be necessary to raise the siege?'' |
52473 | The officer at once remarked:''If one stove saves half the fuel, why do n''t you buy two of them, and save the whole of it?'' |
52473 | This seemed rather incomprehensible, so I added,''Where is his brother?'' |
52473 | What is it?'' |
52473 | What is your reason?'' |
52473 | What was a chew- patty? |
52473 | What were their duties? |
52473 | What will you do next?'' |
52473 | Who was the brave Jones? |
48065 | I was asked my reasons for visiting the gaols? 48065 Was she a woman?" |
48065 | _ Earnest._ And what should I do there, where men go out of curiosity and interest, not for the sake of religion? 48065 And how can you ever expect the blessing of God upon your undertakings, if you neglect and despise, and in effect destroy and abolish his service? 48065 And shall such a Church, that ought to be a pattern of regular devotion to others, be the first to set an example of irreligion? 48065 And whereunto shall I liken our past inadvertency, that it may abide as a memorial to us and to our children? 48065 And will you, Gentlemen, suffer so good a work, which hath been carried on so many years, to perish in your hands? 48065 Are not some disappointed in the success of a prescription from the most judicious hand? 48065 Are not the degrees of distempers and the constitutions of men various? 48065 Are the best physicians or most eminent surgeons ashamed of their prescriptions? 48065 Are they not all turned into warehouses? 48065 Are you a Christian? 48065 But if you can not or will not attend the prayers yourselves, yet why should you hinder others who would attend? 48065 But of all charges and expences why must this of the daily prayers be the first to be retrenched? 48065 But why have you not time? 48065 Can all people eat the most innocent food with equal advantage? 48065 Can he suppose it possible that, in describing the Manners of the Metropolis, the eccentricities of its inhabitants should be omitted? 48065 Do they abound in_ shameful lies_"( the gross words of the Reviewer)? |
48065 | For what will avail all your care and attention, all your labour and pains, without the blessing of God to prosper them? |
48065 | Good Sir, because_ you know_ how we_ all live at present_, are we not to inform those who succeed us how_ we have lived_? |
48065 | Has the Reviewer read that indefatigable and accurate author Keysler? |
48065 | Have we now any shops? |
48065 | Have you read the Tatler to- day?'' |
48065 | How shall I number these signs, or the streets where they most abound? |
48065 | How then am I( who had not received the breath of life in 1758) to draw a faithful picture of the manners of that period? |
48065 | It was then asked me, if it was done at my own expence? |
48065 | Now, what but blind and indiscriminating acrimony could dictate the above remarks? |
48065 | Or, what_ novelty of information_ could arise from describing the domestic occurrences of families in general? |
48065 | Shall any man''s misery prevail upon his credulity to make him more miserable? |
48065 | Was ever any one thing infallible? |
48065 | Was you at the Park last night, Madam? |
48065 | Were they not periodical publications? |
48065 | What are you doing better? |
48065 | What does he say to the Spectator, the Tatler, the World, the Rambler, the Guardian, the Observator, the Female Tatler? |
48065 | What sagacity was required to narrate facts as clear as noon- day? |
48065 | Why is this pleasing custom neglected and forgotten? |
48065 | and will they depend upon what has no known author, and who refers them to the advice of some able Surgeon after cheating them himself? |
48065 | or are they not considered as faithful sketches of those customs which escape the notice of the Historian? |
48065 | or what lady will purchase her bandeaus, her ribbands, gloves,& c.& c. from the hands of a young woman, when the same shop contains-- a young_ man_? |
48065 | or will any Surgeon expose his patient? |
48065 | or, have you only the name from education, as it is the professed Religion of your Country? |
39790 | And what do you think of Scotland noo? |
39790 | But do you ken Burns? |
39790 | But what about a woman? |
39790 | By the way, has Black ever written any other story quite so good as that? 39790 Call this a river?" |
39790 | Do you really think you could go all the way to Inverness? |
39790 | Does Herbert Spencer write so clearly and simply as that upon such subjects? |
39790 | Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale? |
39790 | Has she children? |
39790 | Have you the revised edition here yet? |
39790 | This is all very well, my friend, but where are the other five volumes? |
39790 | Well, I do n''t believe it would do him any good to shoot him, do you, madam? |
39790 | What do you think of Scotland noo? |
39790 | What do you think of Scotland noo? |
39790 | What is it then, Andrea? |
39790 | What is that up there? |

39790 | What on earth,I said to him,"has a small English hotel to do with a pea- sheller? |
39790 | What would you do, Tom, if you should receive a message commanding you to offer up your son upon the altar? |
39790 | Why have you done this? |
39790 | You did not know I was George Eliot, but you were drawn to plain me all for my own self, a woman? 39790 ''Didna ye hear? 39790 ''Wilt thou dare?'' 39790 And now I remember Shakespeare has his say too about the lark-- what is it in England he has not his say about? 39790 And was there ever a band of Gypsies happier than we, or freer from care? 39790 Are you ill? 39790 Are you less a man? 39790 But if stern justice urge rebuke And warmth from memory borrow, When shall we chide, if chide we must? 39790 But is there not a little ambiguity in thetoo long should grow?" |
39790 | But should she frown with face of care, And speak of coming sorrow, When shall we grieve, if grieve we must? |
39790 | But what kind of fruit could be expected from the tree of privilege? |
39790 | But where will imperialism get such another leader, after all? |
39790 | Can any one picture a resting- place so full of peace and beauty as the old Izaak Walton Inn? |
39790 | Can civilized man find nothing better to furnish needful recreation after useful toil? |
39790 | Can they be brought back once more? |
39790 | Can you not understand? |
39790 | Could any one suggest a better for our purpose? |
39790 | Could he inform him? |
39790 | Did any one take you, Thomas Carlyle, for a fine, symmetrical sycamore, or a graceful clinging vine? |
39790 | Did you not give us a lively description the other evening of your riding after the hounds? |
39790 | Didna ye hear?'' |
39790 | Do any people love their country as passionately as the Scotch? |
39790 | Do you know any work so hard as this? |
39790 | Do you know why the American worships the starry banner with a more intense passion than even the Briton does his flag? |
39790 | Do you see rugged Ben Alder yonder, the highest of the group that looks down into the still waters of the lake? |
39790 | Do you see that eminence a mile away yonder, on the north, whose sides slope down into the plain? |
39790 | Does not Holy Writ declare that the diligent man shall stand_ before_ Kings? |

39790 | Happiness is known to be a great beautifier-- but is it not also a great doer of good to others? |
39790 | Has the amount and depth of affection which a woman can waste on a collie dog ever been justly fathomed? |
39790 | Have not you had as honest parents and a better grandfather? |
39790 | Have you never had your friend praise his wife to you in moments of confidence, when you have been fishing for a week together? |
39790 | He sang a beautiful Scotch song to- day,"Cowden Knowes,"and when he was done Andrew immediately asked:"Whaur did ye get that? |
39790 | He then gave us the second verse:"If those who''ve wronged us own their faults And kindly pity pray, When shall we listen and forgive? |
39790 | His eyes twinkled as he replied:"Where goee, eh? |
39790 | How can people be got to live such terrible lives as they seem condemned to here? |
39790 | How could we give such a woman children and look you in the face? |
39790 | How shall I render the unanimous verdict of the company upon the life we had led? |
39790 | I won the good man''s heart at once by saying that small though it was in size( and what has either he or I to boast of in that line, I wonder?) |
39790 | I''ve read some of yer books; they''re vera amusin''; ye ken Scotch scenery well; but when are yer goin''to do some_ wark_, man?" |
39790 | In due time came a return missive from the proud City of the River:"Will I go to Paradise for three months on a coach? |
39790 | Is it not cheering to find poor women getting an advance? |
39790 | Is it not strange that no one has ever imitated this man''s unique style? |
39790 | Is it the opera? |
39790 | Is n''t it glorious to make one''s friends so happy? |
39790 | Is not that capital? |
39790 | Is not that to the purpose? |
39790 | It consists of 148 pages, mostly given up to notices of the titled people who visited the old town long ago; but who cares about them? |
39790 | It runs thus:"Who lyeth heare? |
39790 | Let other nations ask themselves where are_ our_ Lincolns and Garfields? |
39790 | Many times to- day, in the exhilaration of the moment, one or another enthusiastic member called out,"What do ye think o''Scotland noo?" |
39790 | Mr. Duncan, has in savings- banks? |
39790 | O ye self- constituted rulers of men in Europe, know you not that the knell of dynasties and of rank is sounding? |
39790 | Of what other human being could these two things be truly said? |
39790 | Off for Keswick, only twelve miles distant; but who wants to hurry away from scenes like these? |
39790 | Shall we go by Compton Verney( there is a pretty English name for you), Wellesbourn, and Hastings? |
39790 | Shall we not take our ease in our inn? |
39790 | The question came up to- day at luncheon, would one ever tire of this gypsy life? |
39790 | There are whispering sounds in the glen:"Shades of the dead, have I not heard your voices Rise on the night- rolling breath of the gale? |
39790 | To be sure, why not? |
39790 | True, but what are kings and princes for? |
39790 | Was it any wonder that we attracted attention during our progress northward? |
39790 | Was it not Johnson''s idea of happiness to drive in a gig with a pretty woman? |
39790 | Were we really at the opera, then? |
39790 | What I do''ee? |
39790 | What are the Charioteers, after all, in their happiest dream, but aristocratic gypsies? |
39790 | What could you add that would not weaken that? |
39790 | What did such people expect, I wonder? |
39790 | What is the use of"argie bargieing"about it? |
39790 | What matters it what she was? |
39790 | What says Annie''s song? |
39790 | What was to be done? |
39790 | What worm gnaws at her heart and makes her life so petty? |
39790 | When shall we look upon its like again?" |
39790 | Where is another trio that could do that, think you? |
39790 | Where met he the genius of tragedy, think you? |
39790 | Who cares what the Reverend Mr. Froth preaches nowadays, when he ventures beyond the homilies? |
39790 | Who ever learnt a Scotch song out of books? |
39790 | Who owns the treasures of the Sunderland or Hamilton libraries? |
39790 | Who owns your favorite horse? |
39790 | Why ca n''t we recognize the fact that all races indulge in stimulants and will continue to do so? |

39790 | Why do you stand this injustice? |
39790 | Why does n''t Mr. Gladstone suggest this to him? |
39790 | Why mopes she, looking so haggard, with features expressionless and inane? |
39790 | Why not? |
39790 | Why not? |
39790 | Will a second coaching trip do it? |
39790 | Will you lay"violent hands upon the Lord''s anointed?" |
39790 | Would you, my gentle reader, like also to know it? |
39790 | _ To waiter_:"What time do we start in the morning?" |
39790 | and shall not mine host of The Garter, ay and mine hostess too, prove the most obliging of people? |
39790 | half, 7_d._"The long and the half we could understand, but how could they manage the short? |
39790 | no; evolved? |
39790 | or shall we take our way through Broughton Castle, Tadmarton, Scoalcliffe, Compton Wynyate, and Oxhill? |
39790 | said the cynic,"is that it, Miss? |
39790 | she said,''Put by our sacred books, dethrone our gods, Unpeople all the temples, shaking down That law which feeds the priests and props the realm?'' |
39790 | what''s that, and where? |
39790 | why left I my hame?" |
53005 | Where did they find transports? |
53005 | Are we able to purchase at such a rate? |
53005 | Are you not charmed with this speech? |
53005 | Balmerino asked the bystanders, who this person was? |
53005 | But who was the bishop then? |
53005 | Can we force it now? |
53005 | Do you think I will sell you a yard of tenpenny stuff for twenty of Mr. Wood''s halfpence? |
53005 | Does it hinder anything else? |
53005 | He was a knave indeed,--what then? |
53005 | His enemies triumph, but who can envy the triumph of murder? |
53005 | How did you leave our good friends the Dutch? |
53005 | How long have you come from abroad? |
53005 | If there is any good to be done by negociations, or other ways, does it hinder? |
53005 | Perhaps some relation of yours?" |
53005 | The Captain, on his Return, was examined at the Bar of the House of Commons; and being ask''d what his Sentiments were, when threaten''d with Death? |
53005 | The king of Prussia do n''t think of another war, ah? |
53005 | The question is, How can that be done? |
53005 | What Flames will this kindle? |
53005 | What Plunder and Rapine? |
53005 | What burning of Towns, and ransacking of Cities? |
53005 | You have agreed to a law for preventing its being acted, can you refuse your assent to a law forbidding its being printed and published? |
53005 | _ Porteous''_ Apartment, call''d,_ Where is the Villain Porteous?_ who said I''m here, what is it you are to do with me? |
53005 | _ Porteous''_ Apartment, call''d,_ Where is the Villain Porteous?_ who said I''m here, what is it you are to do with me? |
53005 | and where must a Circumvallation or Communication Line of it be placed? |
53005 | are you sure of that?" |
53005 | is this all You''ve gain''d by the long- labour''d fall Of Walpole and his tools? |
53005 | mere trash-- damn''d trash, heh?" |
53005 | or do we hope to purchase at a cheaper, when my Lord Marlborough and Prince Eugene are no more?... |
53005 | will you allow an infamous libel to be printed and dispersed, only because it does not bear the title of a play?... |
53005 | will you allow an infamous libel to be printed and dispersed, which you would not allow to be acted? |
6659 | Do,said the king,"for God''s sake, do; but shall you not expose yourself to danger by it?" |
6659 | How should you like to take some passengers? |
6659 | My good woman,said he,"can you be faithful to a distressed Cavalier?" |
6659 | Passengers? |
6659 | Sire,said the duke to his dying brother,"you decline the sacraments of the Protestant Church, will you receive those of the Catholic?" |
6659 | But how could this be done? |
6659 | But how should they accomplish this end? |
6659 | Hearing the footsteps, he called out,"Who goes there?" |
6659 | Her aunt, however, did not believe her, and said,"Then why did you go to bed, if you knew what was going on?" |
6659 | How was this to be done? |
6659 | Will you take them?" |
5410 | And what do they think of us? |
5410 | And what is his opinion? |
5410 | And why not? |
5410 | Do n''t you see,said the officer,"they are some of our own people who are grazing their horses?" |
5410 | He is dead then, I suppose? |
5410 | How comes it? |
5410 | Is it possible,said the other,"that the Chevalier de Grammont should forget La Motte, who had the honour to serve so long in his regiment?" |
5410 | May I see them upon parole? |
5410 | Must I tell you? |
5410 | Nothing can be more civil,said Matta;"but wherefore would you not?" |
5410 | Sir,said the Chevalier de Grammont,"may I take the liberty to inquire how I came to be known to you?" |
5410 | Under what consulate? |
5410 | Very well,said Matta,"and pray what does it signify to us from whence the Grammonts are descended? |
5410 | Well, Monsieur le Chevalier, were they all very glad to see you? |
5410 | Where have you heard that the Chevalier de Grammont had ever any occasion for sleep? |
5410 | Wherein? |
5410 | After all, what does it signify, whether cleanliness be owing to nature or to art? |
5410 | Could it be otherwise? |
5410 | Do not you know, sir, that it is better to know nothing at all, than to know too much?" |
5410 | Has thy charmer e''er an aunt? |
5410 | In what country will not a man succeed, possessing such advantages? |
5410 | Well,"continued he,"what are they doing at Peronne?" |
5410 | Will you now go to Monsieur de Turenne''s quarters, to acquaint him with it; or will you choose rather to repose yourself in mine? |
5410 | for my part, I can not understand the foolish customs of this country; how comes it that they make me a prisoner upon my parole?" |
5410 | how ridiculous it is, that you can never think for yourself?" |
5410 | is it you, my good friend, La Motte? |
5410 | replied the Marquis:"Under that of the League,"said Matta,"when the Guises brought the Lansquenets into France; but what the devil does that signify?" |
5410 | said Matta:"ought they to have been blue, too, to match the cockade and sword- knots you made me wear the other day? |
5410 | said Monsieur de Turenne;"the Prince, no doubt, received you with the greatest kindness, and asked a great number of questions?" |
5411 | Do I say anything untrue? |
5411 | Do not you wonder what strange creatures men are? 5411 Has not little Jermyn, notwithstanding his uncle''s great estate, and his own brilliant reputation, failed in his suit to her? |
5411 | No,said she;"but why do you ask?" |
5411 | Why God be thanked? |
5411 | ''A quicksand,''said I,''near Calais?'' |
5411 | ''But where is it?'' |
5411 | ''Yes, lost, perished, swallowed up: what can I say more?'' |
5411 | Are not we obliged to that same evil genius of yours, which rashly inspired you to intermeddle even in the gallantries of your prince? |
5411 | But can there be any charms at an entertainment, at which you are not present? |
5411 | But, to conclude, for the enumeration of your iniquities would be endless, give me leave to ask you, how you came here? |
5411 | Do not all the places through which you have passed furnish me with a thousand examples? |
5411 | Do you know that she has had the choice of the best matches in England? |
5411 | How many spies did not you send out after d''Olonne? |
5411 | Now, have you any thing to advance against this project? |
5411 | Shall I mention your coup d''essai at Turin? |
5411 | Shall you be at the masquerade to- morrow? |
5411 | The king immediately took notice of it:"Chevalier,"said he,"Termes is not arrived then?" |
5411 | What would have become of you, if your last misfortune had happened to you when your money had been at as low an ebb as I have known it? |
5411 | he surely was not a priest?" |
5411 | said the king;"has anything happened to him on the road?" |
5411 | the trick you played at Fontainebleau, where you robbed the Princess Palatine''s courier upon the highway? |
5411 | was the packet- boat cast away then?'' |
37570 | And what,said the queen,"am I to understand from such an unaccountable appeal to me and my family?" |
37570 | And,hastily said her royal highness,"is this, Sir, a specimen of the character of the English royal family? |
37570 | But I hope you will see Lord Hutchinson? |
37570 | Is your majesty aware,said Mr. Pitt,"that at this time the prince is engrossed by a fair beauty? |
37570 | Madam, if you insist upon it, it shall be done; and when will your majesty be pleased to receive it? |
37570 | May not I bring Lord Hutchinson with me, please your majesty? |
37570 | Then,said the queen,"can I wonder at any plan or plans they may invent to accomplish the wish of my husband? |
37570 | To what do you allude? |
37570 | Well, well,said the king,"I hope no bad news?" |
37570 | What could I not add to this page of sorrow, this blot upon our land? 37570 What situation does the person occupy?" |
37570 | What would be deemed a sufficient recompense for his attentions? |
37570 | ''Twill out,''twill out!--I hold my peace, sir? |
37570 | ''What was the object of it?'' |
37570 | ''_ I hope you made no rash promise?_''said the king;''None, Sire.'' |
37570 | And amongst the courtiers, where is morality to be found? |
37570 | And how was that inquiry then resisted? |
37570 | And to whom ought an unhappy suffering people to have had recourse but to the throne, whose power sanctioned the means used to drain their purses? |
37570 | And were these men to be called soldiers? |
37570 | And what could be better to effect this object than alarming the country with the fear of an invasion? |
37570 | And where was the Earl of Liverpool? |
37570 | Are such_ careful_ proceedings ever adopted in the case of a poor man? |
37570 | Are you, Sir,_ requested_ to represent this to me, or is it your private opinion?" |
37570 | As to"_ blood being on the left cuff and on the side_,"what proof did he adduce of this, for_ he himself never saw the coat at all_? |
37570 | But is it not beneath the dignity of the press to act in so cowardly a manner? |
37570 | But is not this a violation of the most vital interests and solemn engagements to which humanity have subscribed? |
37570 | But was not this a political_ ruse_? |
37570 | But what can any ministers do against the wishes of a determined people? |
37570 | But, O, what form of prayer Can serve my turn? |
37570 | But_ Justice_ asks, why was not the opinion of six medical men,_ at least_, recorded on this very momentous head? |
37570 | Can I believe my royal father_ so great and good_, when I have so long witnessed his unremitted unkindness to my neglected mother? |
37570 | Can it, then, be believed,_ he_ was guilty of the attack upon his royal master? |
37570 | Could Infamy and Blasphemy go any farther? |
37570 | Could no other arm inflict the wound than he who, in happier moments, indulged me with the most apparent unfeigned friendship? |
37570 | Did Strickland_ really_ feel_ surprised_, or was he_ anxious to say so_? |
37570 | Did he interfere with political matters, and exert his energies to enslave the people? |
37570 | Did he loll in gaudy carriages, and look down with supercilious contempt on his poorer brethren? |
37570 | Did he not send down to parliament that message which denounced his queen a criminal? |
37570 | Did he require_ theatres_ for his churches, or_ perfumed_ divines to preach his gospel? |
37570 | Did he wear lawn sleeves and a mitre? |
37570 | Did not this speak volumes as to her intended destruction? |
37570 | Did they not, by such silence, contribute to the peril of females in the most trying moment of nature''s sorrow? |
37570 | Do not the porter''s own words imply, that_ Sellis had been murdered_, and_ not_ that he had_ murdered himself_? |
37570 | Does not nature revolt at this barbarity, this secret unfeeling conduct of the queen? |
37570 | Does not this neglect of the poor afflicted king reflect disgrace upon her majesty? |
37570 | Does the Princess of Wales imagine that I am to submit to_ her_ opinions upon my conduct, or to_ her_ abuse of any of my family? |
37570 | From youth, have not even some of the late queen''s sons been immoral and profane? |
37570 | Had his mistresses detained him too late in the morning? |
37570 | Had she not an eye to her husband''s former alliance with the quakeress, and the Duke of York''s marriage in Italy? |
37570 | Have you not always taught me to consider myself_ heir_ to the first sovereignty in the world? |
37570 | He walked about the room for some time, and then said, abruptly,"I suppose you have read the letters?" |
37570 | Her majesty, therefore, hastily said,"I trust you are convinced of the impropriety of your former opinions?" |
37570 | Her royal highness has many times been heard to say,"Had I been suspicious, pray what should I not have feared? |
37570 | Her royal highness returned to her former situation before the queen, and exclaimed,"What does your majesty mean?" |
37570 | How could this witness know it belonged to Sellis, whom he probably never saw alive? |
37570 | How does this strange and incomprehensible conduct appear to any unbiassed Englishman? |
37570 | How was her royal highness to act in such a trying case? |
37570 | I started, and exclaimed,''What, my dear sire?'' |
37570 | If a prince commit an act of injustice, ought he not to be equally amenable with the peasant to the laws of his country? |
37570 | If all had been correct, why refuse inquiry, particularly when it was solicited by nine- tenths of the nation? |
37570 | If our readers should here inquire,_ who_ was Colonel Fox? |
37570 | If so, at whose suit was Mr. Parker to be examined? |
37570 | If such unprecedented injustice be allowed in the case of her majesty, where must we look for an impartial administration of justice? |
37570 | If the horse knew his own strength, would he submit to the dictation of his rider? |
37570 | If this man thought that Sellis_ cut his own throat_, as stated by Mrs. Neale, what did he mean by saying,"he supposed_ SOMEBODY ELSE WAS MURDERED_?" |
37570 | If this were not the case, would his proud heart have allowed him to be insulted by my Lord Bloomfield, or Sir W. Knighton? |
37570 | Is it not contrary to all laws, both human and divine, to suppose"the king can do no wrong?" |
37570 | Is it not monstrous, then, that men could be found so lost to honor as to record a verdict of_ felo de se_? |
37570 | May not the life of her majesty be in the greatest jeopardy, and may not a few hours terminate her mortal existence? |
37570 | Might not an earlier arrangement than this very probably have put the enemy to flight? |
37570 | Might they not have been put there_ afterwards_? |
37570 | Mr. Rolle again asked,"Do you, Sir, speak from DIRECT OR INDIRECT AUTHORITY?" |
37570 | Nay, would not the insulting falsehoods and infamous assertions have been proved treasonable? |
37570 | Nott?" |
37570 | Of these, Lord Sidmouth alone remained; and where was Mr. Canning? |
37570 | Oh, Infamy, art thou not now detected? |
37570 | One of the princesses immediately said,"You do not mean to say that you MURDERED THE PRINCESS CHARLOTTE?" |
37570 | She replied she had, and said,"Doctor, what have you done?" |
37570 | Sir Richard quickly exclaimed,"You bid him not leave them?" |
37570 | The body was said to be embalmed,(?) |
37570 | The free exercise of this invaluable privilege should always be conceded to the HISTORIAN, or where will posterity look for_ impartial information_? |
37570 | War might probably be considered by those in power a_ legal trade_; but was it not continued for the untenable purpose of avarice? |
37570 | Was Mr. Canning''s secession from office a trick? |
37570 | Was he permitted to examine the body? |
37570 | Was his return to it a sacrifice,--a sacrifice of honour and principle,--to the miserable gratification of obtaining_ power_? |
37570 | Was it not by his_ divine_ decree that his consort''s name was erased from the liturgy? |
37570 | Was it not_ only_ for the aggrandizement of your spendthrift brother? |
37570 | Was not such the case in that horrible affair which we have just related? |
37570 | Was the promise that had been given only binding for_ three years_? |
37570 | Was there ever a more artful and vindictive piece of business concocted? |
37570 | Was this their way of showing their high courage and their honour by cutting down_ inoffensive females_? |
37570 | Well, what of that? |
37570 | Were they not concocted by the authority of the monarch, her husband? |
37570 | What extraordinary benefits had he rendered to this oppressed nation to merit such an income? |
37570 | What have I not endured since the moment I became your princess and wife? |
37570 | What indignities has not the queen offered to my persecuted mother? |
37570 | What is a defenceless woman, though a queen, opposed to a despotic and powerful king? |
37570 | What traits of"matronly"goodness or natural affection did she exhibit for the Princess Charlotte, when advancing to the hour of her peril? |
37570 | What unhappiness has not such an unnatural doctrine produced? |
37570 | What will become of me now, wretched lady? |
37570 | What would my ever dear and lamented father have thought of such principles and opinions? |
37570 | Where Lord Castlereagh, and how did he go out of the world? |
37570 | Where are the papers of appeal? |
37570 | Where are the records? |
37570 | Where is your CHARTER TO PRIVILEGE MURDER?" |
37570 | Where shall we look for greater CARE or CONDESCENSION than this? |
37570 | Who are these proud, yet base, tyrants,--who, after destroying the child, still continue their plans to destroy her mother also? |
37570 | Who can be nearer to a wife than her husband? |
37570 | Who is the plaintiff, and who the defendant? |
37570 | Who was the prime minister of that day? |
37570 | Who was the reigning prince of that day?--George the Fourth-- where was he? |
37570 | Who were the principal officers of state of that day? |
37570 | Whoever thought of requiring them to_ criminate themselves_? |
37570 | Why does your royal highness refuse to answer my simple, but honest and honourable inquiry? |
37570 | Why then, my lords, are we to assume to ourselves an executive power, with which even the executive power itself is not entrusted? |
37570 | Why, after the refusal to receive this letter, should the princess be blamed for permitting its contents to be published? |
37570 | Will not such a man, then, be regarded by posterity as a time- server and an apostate? |
37570 | William Henry, were you prepared to prove this to be a speech in favour of your cousin and sister- in- law? |
37570 | With her general air of confidence, the queen said,"I presume, Sir, you are the author of this letter?" |
37570 | Ye sticklers for upholding the present impious system of church government, what say ye to this? |
37570 | _ Why_ did Sir Everard Home omit to mention these important particulars in his attempt to explain away the"mystery of the murder of Sellis?" |
37570 | and do you think it not very likely that she died unfairly?" |
37570 | and how may we reasonably expect that violence will not be offered, if other means fail, to accomplish the intended mischief? |
37570 | but, if I am, why should his majesty take so much interest in my case?" |
37570 | can this be called an impartial administration of justice? |
37570 | is it not disgraceful in the extreme?--are they not found debasing themselves in the most infamous and unnatural manner? |
37570 | or had he been in his most privately- retired apartments,_ conversing with a few of the male favourites of his household in_ ITALIAN? |
37570 | or had they played a_ designed part_ with him, to prove their superior domination? |
37570 | said the princess,"is not the Prince of Wales satisfied with the former abuses he has poured upon me? |
37570 | said the queen,"what have I to do with PARIS?" |
37570 | said the young prince,"am I not the son of Mr.******? |
37570 | where is thy blush? |
37570 | where then will exist any risk of obtaining a ready concurrence from the House in my marriage? |
37570 | who did do it?" |
35529 | Ah, would n''t they? |
35529 | Ah, your honour,she said,"would you not be giving me something for my poor sister here? |
35529 | Ah-- so it is the big stones you would be after? |
35529 | All right,I agreed; and then, as an afterthought,"How much will you charge?" |
35529 | All the year round? |
35529 | Am I trespassing? |
35529 | And does that make me think any the less of you? 35529 And will ye have coffee or tay, miss?" |
35529 | And would you be comin''all this way just to see the big stones? |
35529 | Are n''t there many riots next day? |
35529 | Are there really some? |
35529 | Are you interested in the butter business? |
35529 | Banshees is it? 35529 Black törn?" |
35529 | Built by the government? |
35529 | But does n''t it grow wild? |
35529 | But how can they live on that? |
35529 | But where do you get enough police? |
35529 | But where hast thou left thy followers? |
35529 | But why is it, then, Ulster is so frightened? |
35529 | But why? |
35529 | But you have seen cowboys? |
35529 | But you were born in Ireland? |
35529 | Ca n''t do it? |
35529 | Can we get lunch? |
35529 | Can you spell it? |
35529 | Can you tell me how to get to the cromlechs? |
35529 | Can you tell me, sir, if this is the train to Derry? |

35529 | Did the Saint let him go? |
35529 | Did they come true? |
35529 | Did you see the underground passages? |
35529 | Do n''t know? |
35529 | Do n''t you know where the hotel is? |
35529 | Do n''t you remember the song about Willy Reilly and his dear cruiskeen lawn? |
35529 | Do you ever see any ghosts? |
35529 | Do you see them marks? 35529 Do you suppose I''d go away now, without kissing it? |
35529 | Enough police? |
35529 | From America? |

35529 | Have you ever been there? |
35529 | Have you heard Timothy Sullivan''s''Song from the Backwoods''? |
35529 | Have you people hereabouts? |

35529 | How can you prove that? |
35529 | How did you happen to stay in Ireland? |
35529 | How did you know? |
35529 | How do I start? |
35529 | How do we get to it? |
35529 | How do you like living in the old castle? |
35529 | How far is it? |
35529 | How far is it? |
35529 | How is all this to be brought about? |
35529 | How much land would it take to give grass to the cow? |
35529 | How much will you charge an hour? |
35529 | How, I''d like to know? 35529 I suppose ale is still to be obtained at the''Three Jolly Pigeons''?" |
35529 | In what way? |
35529 | Indians? 35529 Is it a car your honour would be wantin''?" |
35529 | Is it ready? |
35529 | Is it so? 35529 Is n''t the room all right?" |
35529 | Is that the counsel of you all to me? |
35529 | Is this it? |
35529 | Is yon one your wife? |
35529 | It is a fine day, is n''t it? |
35529 | It''s up this way, is n''t it? |
35529 | Kiss the Blarney stone? |
35529 | Land purchase, is it? |
35529 | Nor hear any banshees? |
35529 | Nothing like it? |
35529 | Of course you know''To the Dead of Ninety- eight''? |
35529 | On the war- path? |
35529 | Or in the condensed milk business?? |
35529 | Or in the condensed milk business?? |
35529 | Something to his discredit? |
35529 | Sure, there''s nothing I can do, miss,said the jarvey, who had listened sympathetically;"I ca n''t make the car any longer, now can I? |
35529 | Tell me, miss,he said, at last,"is them your own teeth you''ve got?" |
35529 | That''s not far, is it? |
35529 | That_ is_ Sackville Street, is n''t it? |
35529 | The bogs are very wet this year, are they not? |
35529 | The cromlechs? 35529 The stones are near here, are n''t they?" |
35529 | Then it''s less than two miles? |
35529 | There''s no work in winter, so how can one be payin''wages then? |
35529 | They are, sir; and why should one bother washin''them when they get dirty again right away? 35529 They''re brave lads, are n''t they?" |
35529 | Tricker? |
35529 | Unprofitably gay? |
35529 | Was there a man stopped you? |
35529 | Well, what, for instance? |
35529 | Well, why on earth did n''t you say so? |
35529 | Well,he said, as I sat down mopping my face, for I had covered three miles in half an hour,"did you see the fort?" |
35529 | What about? |
35529 | What are you going to do? |
35529 | What are you going to do? |
35529 | What can we have? |
35529 | What do the labourers do then? |
35529 | What do you suppose is the matter? |
35529 | What do you think of that, anyway, sir? |
35529 | What does cruiskeen lawn mean? |
35529 | What happened to the thief? |
35529 | What is a senator? |
35529 | What is it they''re saying? |
35529 | What is it? 35529 What is that you have in your hand, sir?" |
35529 | What is the fare? |
35529 | What is the fare? |
35529 | What name was it you gave this street, sir? |
35529 | What wages does a labourer make? |
35529 | What would you pay, now? |
35529 | What''s the matter? |
35529 | What,I said;"not married?" |
35529 | Where be you going? |
35529 | Where did you pick up all that patter? |
35529 | Where is it you''d be wantin''to go, sir? |
35529 | Where is the bed? |
35529 | Where would they go? 35529 Where would you be from?" |
35529 | Where_ is_ O''Connell Street? |
35529 | Who the devil are you? |
35529 | Why do n''t they go away? |
35529 | Why do n''t you make three wishes yourself? |
35529 | Why do n''t you take a leaf from Lloyd George''s book? 35529 Why do they stay here?" |
35529 | Why not go up with me now? |
35529 | Why should we Catholics interfere wid them? |
35529 | Why, have you seen them? |
35529 | Why? |
35529 | Will you be wantin''a pilot, sir? |
35529 | Would you be telling me,he gasped,"that your millionaires, your men of vast properties, have no more votes than the poor man?" |
35529 | Would you mind doing it again, so that we can see just how it is done? |
35529 | Would your honour be wantin''a car? |
35529 | You are a Nationalist, I suppose? |
35529 | You do n''t foresee a roseate future, then? |
35529 | You would be from America? 35529 You''re not a native of these parts?" |
35529 | A berry or a fruit?" |
35529 | And where is the beauty that once was thine? |
35529 | Are the Rules as to this book observed? |
35529 | Are they all over seventy? |
35529 | Besides, if everybody owned land, where would we be gettin''labour to work it? |
35529 | But how does it come that any one lives in these hills, where life is such a constant and heartrending struggle? |
35529 | But what can the farmers do? |
35529 | By raisin''taxes? |
35529 | Can not the clargy be Irishmen too?" |
35529 | Can you tell me how to get to them?" |
35529 | Did he give you the key?" |
35529 | Do you know his''Ode to Ireland''?" |
35529 | Do you know the poem? |
35529 | Do you know where it is?" |
35529 | Do you mean to say you have never seen the Sheela- na- gig, nor read that line about Wilo Wisp and Jack the Printer?" |
35529 | Do you see that hill yonder?" |
35529 | Drilling and arming? |
35529 | Every evening Betty would have a colloquy with the maid, which ran something like this:"What will ye be wantin''for breakfast, miss?" |
35529 | For how could such beauty be unprofitable? |
35529 | For whom was it built? |
35529 | From what ragged pocket had it fallen, we wondered? |
35529 | Have you a car?" |
35529 | Have you ever heard of"Silken Thomas,"tenth Earl of Kildare? |
35529 | Have you examined the Religious Instruction Certificate Book? |
35529 | Home Rule will make no difference-- how can it? |
35529 | How do you manage it in America?" |
35529 | How great a tragedy would its loss represent? |
35529 | How many of them died, I wondered, and how had she herself managed to survive the awful years which followed? |
35529 | How many of us, I wonder, would be too proud to beg if we could find no work to do, and our backs were bare and our stomachs empty? |
35529 | How much farther is the hotel?" |
35529 | Is n''t it the same in America?" |
35529 | Is the school_ bona fide_ open to pupils of all denominations? |
35529 | It is still so in Ireland, as Lesson Eight will show: Is it a dog? |
35529 | It was Lady Morgan who celebrated Kate''s charms in the ingenuous verses beginning, Oh, did you not hear of Kate Kearney? |
35529 | My principal objection to this is that it is nonsense: how, for example, if the dog was in the box, could it have been also in the mud? |
35529 | Now how old am I?'' |
35529 | O, where are the princes and nobles that sate At the feast in thy halls, and drank the red wine? |
35529 | Oh, wo n''t you come up, come all the way up, Come all the way up to Limerick? |
35529 | Once the Bishop looked grave at your jest, Till this remark set him off wid the rest:"Is it lave gaiety All to the laity? |
35529 | Ruins? |
35529 | Seein''they''re no manner of use and cost a lot of money, who else could have built them?" |
35529 | Sure, have n''t I seen them before this treatin''a small fight at the corner as though it was a revolution? |
35529 | The bones do be workin''up to the surface all the time-- and how can that be helped, I should like to know? |
35529 | The cause of this decay? |
35529 | Was he sad or glad Who knew to carve in such a fashion? |
35529 | Was the fox in a box? |
35529 | We get along very well together, and why should n''t we? |
35529 | We will need strong arms at the helm, and what do we care what their religion may be, if only they''re good men and true? |
35529 | Well then, what is it the Ulster men are afraid of? |
35529 | What did Catholic emancipation mean to me and thousands like me? |
35529 | What do you think of that now?" |
35529 | What do you think of that?" |
35529 | What is a man to do against such ignorance as that? |
35529 | What is man?" |
35529 | What might that be?" |
35529 | What''s that?" |
35529 | What, then, are we to believe? |
35529 | When you ask the man at the station,"Is this the train for So- and- so?" |
35529 | Where, O, Kincora? |
35529 | Wherefore sea- severed, long leagues apart?" |
35529 | Who was he? |
35529 | Why is the north energetic and prosperous, while the south is lazy and poverty- stricken? |
35529 | Why should I spoil his dream? |
35529 | Will you not come in and sit a spell?" |
35529 | Would your honour be trying it, now, if I would get my blueing bag?" |
35529 | You are from America, I''m thinking?" |
35529 | You know Glengarriff? |
35529 | You''re a Protestant, I take it, sir?" |
35529 | centre of my longings, Country of my fathers, home of my heart, Overseas you call me,"Why an exile from me? |
6727 | And how may we account for it? |
6727 | But who was to follow Edward? |
6727 | Was it merely a superb, an unparalleled piece of acting? |
6727 | Was it the heroism of a martyr? |
6727 | What if the death of all his male children had been a Divine Judgment on an unlawful union? |
6727 | What then were the guiding considerations, whether of Ethics or of Expediency? |
6727 | What, then, was the King''s attitude? |
6727 | What, then, was the change which now took place? |
6727 | Where in all history is a tragedy more piteous than that of Mary Tudor? |
6727 | [ Sidenote: Piracy?] |
6727 | [ Sidenote: Pope or King?] |
6727 | [ Sidenote: Whose was the responsibility?] |
37571 | !--such an outrage upon your audience-- how is that to be accounted for? |
37571 | But you mean, of course, to restore them? |
37571 | Could no one tell her majesty the real state of things? |
37571 | How many long years,said Mr. Brougham,"had they not seen, when to be an Englishman on the Continent was a painful, if not a degrading, condition? |
37571 | And did not universal execration COMPEL the commander- in- chief TO RESIGN, in defiance of that contemptible and loathed majority? |
37571 | And what reason was assigned for so unjustifiable a proceeding? |
37571 | And what was the object to be obtained by this war? |
37571 | And whence, let us again inquire, arises this state of affairs? |
37571 | And why is this man endowed with a valuable benefice? |
37571 | Are no interested motives to be traced here? |
37571 | As to the rest of Europe, how has it been ameliorated?--what solitary benefit have the"deliverers"conferred? |
37571 | But had not every Englishman a direct interest in the affairs of government? |
37571 | But how did he employ these rare opportunities? |
37571 | But how did his lordship fulfil these promises? |
37571 | But what return did England make for so much magnanimity? |
37571 | But what will posterity think of a British minister''s violating a treaty for such paltry gratifications? |
37571 | But what, it may be fairly asked, is in reality gained by this procedure? |
37571 | By what right did the British government constitute itself a tribunal to judge and punish, in the last resort, delinquent monarchs? |
37571 | Can the House of Hanover say as much for their succession to the throne of the STUARTS? |
37571 | Could any thing tend more to criminate his lordship than the sudden punishment of the accuser, while in the act of preferring his complaint? |
37571 | Could they, for a moment, have risen from their graves, what would have been their astonishment at such a perversion of the blessings of the press? |
37571 | Could this fund have been better applied than for the use of him for whom it was voted? |
37571 | Did he now, for the first time, utter this description of its character? |
37571 | Did not JUNIUS expose the illegality of this power? |
37571 | Did not the Tories, then, we ask, both create and feed the riots at Bristol, for the purpose of frightening the people from reform? |
37571 | Did they suspect, that you were again willing to rebel or betray? |
37571 | From what code of morality, or from what system of religion, did his lordship borrow such a principle? |
37571 | From whence was this unusual non- attendance upon the monarch to be attributed? |
37571 | Had Wellington been taken,( And there were chances on that day) Would Bonaparte have used his sway, And left him thus forsaken?" |
37571 | How much longer will the people tolerate such"hereditary"privileges? |
37571 | How was it constituted? |
37571 | If money had been wanted to purchase toys for this baby prince, could it not have been supplied from some more creditable source? |
37571 | In the name of an all- merciful Providence, of what materials are military officers composed that they can endure such disgusting spectacles? |
37571 | Is it madness or meanness which clings to thee now? |
37571 | Is not such our present political situation? |
37571 | It has never been disputed(?) |
37571 | It may be asked,"Why did the queen allow herself to be guided so much by this alderman?" |
37571 | It may here be proper to inquire,"Who and what are they that have so long opposed the just rights of the people?" |
37571 | It was, he rejoiced to say, a rare instance of so sacred a place being corrupted to such purposes(?). |
37571 | May we not ask how far the English clergy are removed from Popery? |
37571 | No loveliness in gratitude? |
37571 | On what principle are they disposed of? |
37571 | One of these advocates stated that Mr. O''Meara was discharged for disobeying orders; but of what nature were those orders? |
37571 | Or will it not bind thee the fastest of all The slaves, who now hail their betrayer with hymns? |
37571 | Or would his self- love satisfy the heavily- taxed people, who were compelled to administer to his extravagant demands for finery and baubles? |
37571 | Upon what principle, then, did active hatred continue when both hostility and apprehension had ceased? |
37571 | Was ever common sense so insulted? |
37571 | Was it from motives of Christian charity that he traduced him before a public tribunal? |
37571 | Was it impartial British justice, when the ministers of the king sat as judges, jurors, and accusers? |
37571 | Was it not intended to add fresh insults to injuries already too deep? |
37571 | Was justice ever so outraged? |
37571 | Was not every honourable man in England convinced of their verity? |
37571 | Was not the name of the noble- minded Caroline insultingly excluded from the Liturgy? |
37571 | Was not the sense of duty powerful enough? |
37571 | Was the refusing a list even of the names of the witnesses impartial justice? |
37571 | Was the treating her majesty as guilty before her trial a fair specimen of the beauty of this court? |
37571 | Was there no beauty in the common charities of our nature? |
37571 | Was there no delight in filial affection? |
37571 | We are here naturally led to inquire, who was the_ former_ Bishop of Osnaburgh? |
37571 | Well, then, the Prince of Wales''name, at least, did figure in our Prayer Book, and was he"pure and undefiled?" |
37571 | Were Henry the Eighth, Queen Mary, Charles the Second and his queen, James the Second and his queen, all pure and undefiled? |
37571 | Were all Englishmen punished in the same manner for the offence of brawling and drunkenness, where would the flogging system terminate? |

37571 | What, also, will posterity think of Lord Castlereagh''s conduct on this occasion, who proposed the disgusting grant to parliament? |
37571 | What, then, are we to think of a British minister, who could violate his most sacred pledges of protection to a man of this exalted description? |
37571 | What, then, it may be asked, is the cause of the present unhappy state of England,--of its political struggles and divisions? |
37571 | Whence, then, arose Lord Castlereagh''s right to treat him as an offender amenable to England? |
37571 | Where would the voice of mercy have prevailed on them to sheath the sword of persecution? |

37571 | Why was not the unblushing audacity of ministers and their time- serving tools put to the test? |
37571 | Why, then, should those who pretend to be the followers of Christ presume to that which their master condemned? |
37571 | Will it merit the approbation of your government and your nation? |
37571 | Will posterity, we repeat, forget to canvass all this, and much more, of which the Duke of York was notoriously guilty? |
37571 | Will this do honour to your character? |

44860 | Me,cried Philip, in the grammar of the period; but"Who''s me?" |
44860 | Now then, stupid,resounded from rank to rank, and comrade addressed comrade with the words"Where are you shoving to?" |
44860 | Now then, what is it? |
44860 | Talk not of bowls,was the reply of John;"what is life but a game at bowls, in which the king is too frequently knocked over?" |

44860 | Would you say as much to the pope himself? |
44860 | You know your rights,said Philip to the youth,"and would you not be a king?" |
44860 | You''re not joking? |
44860 | *"For if,"said he,"the one thousand misdemeanors will not make a felony, how will twenty- eight misdemeanors make a treason?" |
44860 | *"What has become of the fellow?" |
44860 | *"Who will buy them?" |
44860 | --"Did you, indeed, you young jackanapes?" |
44860 | Arrest me? |
44860 | As the friend was evidently not a man to take a denial, Henry? |
44860 | Did you ever?" |
44860 | Did you ever?" |
44860 | He sounded Whitelock, to whom he put the question,"What if a man should take upon himself to be king?" |
44860 | He took hold of the hammer- cloth, as if to mount, and looked round as much as to say,"Shall I?" |
44860 | Henry exclaimed emphatically,"What are you going to give me?" |
44860 | His majesty retired to York, but soon began to ask himself--"What''s this dull town to me?" |
44860 | His wife had but little respect for his waggery, and would sometimes ask him"how he could play the fool in a close, filthy prison?" |
44860 | In vain did a diminutive bishop ask a stalwart warrior"where he was shoving to?" |
44860 | Jack had scarcely got out the words,"Is that you, Alick?" |
44860 | Long before the promised aid arrived, he received a card inscribed"Dr. Knight,"and he had scarcely time to say,"Doctor Knight? |
44860 | Nor can it be doubted that, had the air been popular at the period, the Ethiopian melody of"Who''s dat knocking at de door?" |
44860 | Often, while reviewing the troops, if he complained of awkwardness in the evolutions, he would hear murmurs of"Why do n''t you pay us?" |
44860 | On Tuesday, the 13th, Louis came to his bedside to say"How d''ye do?" |
44860 | Sampson, K.C., had nevertheless got as far as"Will your lordship allow us?" |
44860 | The king then exclaimed,"Well, Doctor, is that all you have to say?" |
44860 | There''s some mistake, is there not? |
44860 | This, however, was impossible; for though conscience must often have whispered"Ca n''t you leave the man alone?" |
44860 | Those ensigns with the banners Must stand the other way, Or else how is it possible The white rose to display?" |
44860 | To rub his eyes and ask"What''s this?" |
44860 | Under these circumstances, he intimated that his presence among them should be regarded as a flying visit, just to say"How d''ye do?" |
44860 | What has it cost me?" |
44860 | What have I done? |
44860 | What next?" |
44860 | What will you give? |
44860 | What''s become of the king?" |
44860 | When the news was brought to her, she exclaimed indignantly,"Not married to the king? |
44860 | Who is Doctor Knight? |
44860 | Who is Sidney?" |
44860 | and"Do n''t you wish you may get it?" |
44860 | and"Where are you shoving to?" |
44860 | and"what about?" |
44860 | as if there must be some mistake, and as though he would have said,"Gentlemen of the jury, do you know what you are doing?" |
44860 | cried Somerset, as York came in, which elicited, by way of reply,"You''re an old humbug,"and other taunts, among which"Who embezzled the taxes?" |
44860 | did you ever?" |
44860 | he whined,"dinna ye ken that there are times when you mun just throw your preencipal overboard?" |
44860 | rejoined the Scot;"but ken ye not that ye might have bought half the powder, and put the rest of the siller in your pocket?" |
44860 | roared Henry, in allusion to his having elevated Catherine Parr by marrying her;"so you are a doctor, are you, Kate?" |
44860 | roared the Protector,"do you answer me with''ifs''? |
44860 | what next?" |
44860 | when Harrison pulled him back by the skirts of his coat, saying to him,"Ca n''t you be quiet? |
44860 | who''s Fletcher?" |
44860 | why should I not be able to drive my own carriage?" |
44860 | would n''t I, just?" |
44860 | would the urchin teach his grandmother to suck eggs, I wonder?" |
53723 | How escaped he,said the lady, Dame Lionesse,"from the brethren of Sir Persant?" |
53723 | Sir, know you not me? |
53723 | What dost see, lad? |
53723 | What is the use of this talk? |
53723 | What is this light? |
53723 | What is this? |
53723 | What meanest this? |
53723 | What weapons shall we use to- day? |
53723 | What word was that? |
53723 | Aloud she said to her people,"Is it a true word Cuchulain spoke?" |
53723 | And Finan heard the sleep- bound voice of Cædmon ask,"What shall I sing?" |
53723 | And he began to keen and lament:"What are joy and shouting to me now? |
53723 | And if you were told that in the palace were lamps so bright that they lighted not only the palace, but cast a glow over the whole world? |
53723 | And now, instead of rhyme, what do you think the old English poetry had? |
53723 | And on what golden door shall we rap first that we may be admitted? |
53723 | And some were more beautiful than anything the world had ever known before? |
53723 | And then what do you think happened? |
53723 | And those doors opened into rooms and upon gardens and balconies, all of which were the most beautiful of palace rooms and gardens? |
53723 | And within that palace, you were told, were more than a thousand golden doors? |
53723 | But always Sir Kay would taunt him with these words spoken to others,"How like you my boy of the kitchen?" |
53723 | But tell me now, what is there under the foundations that will not suffer it to stand?" |
53723 | Do you think you would go through the gate to that palace? |

37687 | Been at sea all your life, hain''t you? |
37687 | But, John, you''ve heard of Grace Darling? |

37687 | Now,she said, after we had talked on a variety of topics,"come into the parlour and I shall play and sing to you?" |
37687 | On the whole, John,I say, as I reseat myself among the rugs,"how do you like to be a gipsy?" |
37687 | Shall we drop a tear to her memory, my gentle Jehu? |
37687 | Stay? |
37687 | Stop the''orses, ca n''t yer? 37687 That''s just where it is-- what would be the use of a war- cry if it were n''t startling? |

37687 | About pigs? |
37687 | Accommodation? |
37687 | And what shall I say of gowan or mountain- daisy? |
37687 | And who were they after all? |
37687 | Are the good folks of Lyndhurst ghouls? |
37687 | Are we back in the middle ages, I wonder? |
37687 | Are you fond of history? |
37687 | But have they not their rivals in the climbing honeysuckle and in the bright- eyed creeping convolvulus? |
37687 | But is hope quite past, even for these? |
37687 | But she must be very heavy? |
37687 | But then you will think early rising the reverse of a hardship, for did you not turn in at ten o''clock? |

37687 | Can that be had in a Wanderer caravan? |
37687 | Can this be the ghost of Penn? |
37687 | Can you tell wot the gemman means,''Arry?" |
37687 | Clean? |
37687 | Could the horses do it this time? |
37687 | Did Wallingford not hold out against the Danes also? |
37687 | Did it ever strike the reader that those same great velvety bees are republicans in their way of thinking? |
37687 | Did not two of the greatest philosophers the world ever saw attempt to put their own nag in the shafts once? |
37687 | Did we purchase these flowers? |

37687 | Has my city reader noticed it in bloom in May? |

37687 | Have you never heard the legend that he sailed down the Tweed in a huge stone coffin?" |
37687 | Have you seen the golden- tasselled broom waving in the soft spring wind? |
37687 | Here again is my coachman being interviewed by some country bumpkins:--"Who be your master, matie?" |
37687 | How did we come here? |
37687 | I am often asked, Is it not very hot in summer? |
37687 | I had never been to Mark- lane, and who is Hyde? |
37687 | I never tried to pull_ your_ tail off, did I? |
37687 | I said to Brad,"How much, my friend?" |
37687 | I wonder if I am truly getting ill, or old, or something; and if a complete change would do me good?" |
37687 | I wonder what pigs do dream about? |
37687 | I wondered if the Wanderer really was an object of curiosity to the groups who gathered and walked and talked around us? |
37687 | If a man be driving the trap that is meeting her, is it not his duty to give place to her? |
37687 | If a man comes to the back door of your caravan and addresses you thus:"Chuck us a dollop o''stale tommy, guv''nor, will yer?" |
37687 | If touched with the whip, she immediately nibbles round at Corn- flower''s head, as much as to say,"Come on, ca n''t you, you lazy stick? |
37687 | Inland, are there not grand old hills and wild woodlands, lonely straths and glens, and splendid sheets of water? |
37687 | Is He mocking at their calamity? |
37687 | Is it not possible that the mountain firs of our Scottish Highlands would spread also had they room? |
37687 | Is it not said that the wild anemone or wind- flower grew from the tears shed by Venus over the grave of Adonis? |
37687 | Is it not, however, also said that the whole country north of Newcastle properly belongs to Caledonia? |
37687 | Is it the tomb of a saint? |
37687 | Is n''t that dreadful, my dear? |
37687 | Is not,"I continued, parodying Shylock''s speech--"Is not a horse an animal? |
37687 | Is that the remark you make, dear reader? |
37687 | Is the bare idea not calculated to induce a more dreadful nightmare than even a lobster salad?" |
37687 | Is there not, too, the finest tree scenery that exists anywhere in Scotland? |
37687 | Knowest thou this song, John?" |
37687 | Matilda was led away to the stable, the after- steps were let down, and the children said,"Is n''t it dinner- time, pa?" |
37687 | Might not, I asked myself, any one or more of a thousand accidents befall her? |
37687 | Must the Wanderer, indeed, climb that terrible hill? |
37687 | Nay, more, have I not also my West Australian cockatoo to talk to me, to sing with me, and dance when I play? |
37687 | Need I mention Floors Castle, Kelso Abbey, Melrose Abbey, or the abbeys of Jedburgh and romantic Dryburgh? |
37687 | No poetry about a potato field? |
37687 | Not quite liking the accommodation recommended to us by a villager, I called on Mr E--, and coyly-- shall I say"coyly?" |
37687 | O fickle fortune, why this cruel sporting? |
37687 | O, why thus perplex us poor sons of a day? |
37687 | Or can I have been dreaming? |
37687 | Or, later on in the season, the tall and stately foxgloves blooming red amidst the greenery of a fern bank? |
37687 | She may not know her own side of the road, but what does that matter? |
37687 | Sight- seeing? |
37687 | Smeaton? |
37687 | Subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a Christian is?" |
37687 | The round- faced landlord was very polite, but when I asked for a photographer,--"A wot, sir?" |
37687 | There is a sharp corner to turn, too, up yonder, and what is beyond? |
37687 | This will make you laugh, and if one should overtake you and go swilling round your ankles, why, what matters it? |
37687 | We must not grumble, must we, my dear? |
37687 | Well, polly, as I were a sayin'', he comes to the stable, and he says to Garge,` Garge,''says he--"But would you believe it, dear dobbin? |
37687 | Were we invited? |
37687 | What are the old horse''s forefeet tied together for, pa?" |
37687 | What beauty, it might be asked, could a lover of nature descry in an old stone fence? |
37687 | What by early hours and moderate meals? |
37687 | What care I that Oko Jumbo has departed, or that there has been a royal visit to Leeds? |
37687 | What charmed me most in this Forest? |
37687 | What does that matter? |
37687 | What else could I do but wave my hat in return? |
37687 | What is it, I wonder? |
37687 | What must it have been one hundred years ago? |
37687 | What though your table be small, the viands plain? |
37687 | What young girl fresh from school can be found who can not drive? |
37687 | What''s the odds so long as you''re happy? |
37687 | When frozen one day last winter, I found her throwing the seeds on top of the ice, and saying,"Poor dear Polly?" |
37687 | Whenever any one now says to me,"There is a terrible hill a few miles on,""Can a cat get up?" |
37687 | Where am I? |
37687 | Where are our tourists? |
37687 | Where on earth, he asks, do these streams come from? |
37687 | Where on earth_ has_ it gone to?" |
37687 | Which of the wild flowers, I now wonder, did I love the best? |
37687 | Who can tell? |
37687 | Who should meet me in London, all unexpectedly as it were, but"mamma"? |
37687 | Who would not be a gipsy? |
37687 | Who, I wonder, drinks all the"fine old beer,"the"sparkling ales,"and the"London stout,"in this town of Porchester? |
37687 | Who_ would_ be a dweller in dusty cities, I wonder, who can enjoy life like this? |
37687 | Why called"Fenny,"I wonder? |
37687 | Why could not the man have said"caravan"? |
37687 | Why, he said in reply, did not I go straight to the Bristol Waggon Company? |
37687 | Will that scale suit you to measure_ your_ health against? |
37687 | Will they return with but a glimmer of light before it is for ever too late? |
37687 | Will ye buy a basket, missus? |
37687 | Would n''t you laugh too, if you had to live for a hundred years? |
37687 | Would ye no obleege us with just one blink at ye?" |
37687 | Would you not accept the latter almost as readily as the former? |
37687 | Yes, all that time, and why not? |
37687 | Yes, you would, especially if she said,--"Have a few flowers, sir? |
37687 | _ Quien sabe_? |

49263 | How many of Pugsley''s women have been forced to supplement their wretched earnings by prostitution? |
49263 | How, then, can we lessen the chances of drawing the wrong card in the great lottery of marriage? |
49263 | I said:"Where is the orderly? |
49263 | I want to know why the big thief, Pugsley, is made a peer, and the man who steals a handful of turnips is sent to the County gaol? |
49263 | Is he not a man and a brother?" |
49263 | Is it a matter for wonder? |
49263 | Is it moral to kill the social affections? |
49263 | Is there no escape from a seemingly invincible fate that restricts the thought and energy of the million to the bare affairs of the shop? |
49263 | Is there no room for Jeames in this mixed assemblage? |
49263 | Is there the least need to dwell upon the contrast of decency that these Curumbas women present to the"respectable English ladies"of Calcutta? |
49263 | Is this the kind of man who will sedulously guard against soiling his hands in dirty commercial enterprises? |
49263 | Must hands be stained with men''s blood ere the rich will bestir themselves to render justice to the poor? |
49263 | Must we wait for this? |
49263 | Supposing it possible for an original mind to pursue the preposterous chimera of respectability, where would such a mind find itself ultimately? |
49263 | The only thing to decide is, which sort? |
49263 | The question is-- Can a man live the higher life, and_ succeed_ in the worldly meaning of prosperity? |
49263 | These attempts to stamp out individuality of character promote social progress? |
49263 | WHAT IS RESPECTABILITY? |
49263 | WHAT IS RESPECTABILITY? |
49263 | Was not Mr. Brown very respectable? |
49263 | Was not Mrs. Robinson distantly related to a branch of the aristocracy? |
49263 | Was the opposition entirely motived by a spirit of scientific scepticism and caution? |
49263 | Was the pensive opium- eater thoroughly overawed or depressed by the Respectability of the classic city? |
49263 | Were there not originally the germs of ideas, imagination, and emotion, in these unfortunate contented souls? |
49263 | What does Villadom read, talk of, and think upon? |
49263 | What happiness, what profit, come out of such masquerading? |
49263 | What is its effect upon the morals and the weal of the order? |
49263 | What were the peculiarities of these ancestors whose idiosyncracies have degenerated into actual brain disease? |
49263 | What will Mrs. Robinson think?" |
49263 | When the majority disagree as to the outward semblance and the inner attributes of"real gentlefolk,"how can we distinguish individuals of the order? |
49263 | Why not? |
49263 | Why not? |
49263 | Why, in the name of reason, am I to flatter and applaud this commercial gamester? |
49263 | Will the Respectables always crucify their social redeemers? |
49263 | Will the prosperous business career of the future be alone compatible with a low standard of thought, and a corrupt canon of commercial morals? |
49263 | Would it not be an act of sheer defamation of character to describe Ben Jonson, Shakspere, Dryden, Fielding, and Burns as"respectable men?" |
49263 | Yet how far? |
49263 | Yet need money- getting always degrade the people? |
49263 | Yet, who to- day but the most degraded peasants of the wild hills believes in witches? |
49263 | is there anything greater under the sun? |
49263 | is there one man in ten in this great sheep- pen who would like to be seen blacking his own boots or sweeping the snow from the front of his house? |
49263 | what did he in a company where externals count for all a man is worth? |
49263 | who has it not cursed and perverted at some time in his life? |
8556 | From which pope? |
8556 | Why do they not go on and demand the kingdom itself? |
8556 | If England was to be ruled by a foreign king, should not that king on historical grounds be a Dane rather than a Norman? |
8556 | John had not remained in inactivity in England all this time, however, without some impatience? |
8556 | Ought A to pay a certain tax? |
8556 | Ought he not to be of the land that had already furnished kings to England? |
8556 | Since when had England, recognized the right of the pope to confirm its sovereigns or to decide cases of disputed succession? |
8556 | The question is usually to be settled by answering another: Have his ancestors before him paid it, or the land which he now holds? |
8556 | Very probably at this time also he was made Earl of Hereford? |
9973 | Hemingburgh concludes by saying that all that they could get from the culprits was the exclamation,''Quid potui ego?'' |
9973 | Where else can one find a pork- butcher''s shop inserted between the tower and the nave, or a tobacconist doing business in the aisle of a church? |
54884 | Are you not distressed to see me do this? |
54884 | At least then,continued Mary,"my requests in favour of my servants will be granted?" |
54884 | Did you remark, Bourgoing,said she,"what Lord Kent said in his interview with me? |
54884 | Does this indicate that the minute was considered unnecessary and never presented? |
54884 | How is it possible,returned the Queen gently,"to have such an image in one''s hands without the heart being profoundly touched by it? |
54884 | I am very happy to go from this world; you should rejoice to see me die for such a good quarrel; are you not ashamed to cry? 54884 I do not blame you for this,"said Burleigh;"but if the Spanish army had entered the country, could you have answered for the life of the Queen? |
54884 | If my enemies possess them,said she,"why do they not produce them? |
54884 | Is Nau dead? |
54884 | What favour can I look for when I shall have established my innocence? |
54884 | Why,said she,"are not Nau and Curle examined in my presence? |
54884 | Will you therefore,continued Burleigh rudely,"hear us or not? |
54884 | Can I be responsible for the criminal projects of a few desperate men, which they planned without my knowledge or participation?" |
54884 | Did I not well know that they desired to do as they have done? |
54884 | Have not they now plainly shown their intention? |
54884 | If Babington really confessed such things, why was he put to death without being confronted with me? |
54884 | If I had any secret dealings with him, why did he not declare them in order to save his life?" |
54884 | If Mary had sued for mercy, would Elizabeth have granted it? |
54884 | Is it likely,"continued she,"that I should appeal for assistance to Lord Arundel, whom I knew to be in prison? |
54884 | Is it not an unworthy act to submit to such conduct of such people, the title of a princess, one little accustomed to such procedures and formalities? |
54884 | Is it not notorious that they have always feared that if I lived they would never be in safety regarding their religion? |
54884 | Is that''protection''?" |
54884 | Item, in another letter he advertised her how Sir Edward Stafford(? |
54884 | May it not be also that letters similar to those now produced, may have come to their hands without, however, my seeing them? |
54884 | My children,"continued Mary,"it is now no time to weep; that is useless; what do you now fear? |
54884 | When she was left alone with her sorrowful attendants, the Queen, turning to them, said:"Well, Jane Kennedy, did I not tell you this would happen? |
54884 | Would it not be better for me to risk personal danger than to take the life of a relation? |
54884 | Would not the country have been in danger of falling into the hands of strangers?" |
54884 | Would you wish me to return a jewel which you gave me to you with my last words, or would it please you to receive it sooner? |
54884 | [ Footnote 189: Dingley?] |
54884 | or to Lord Northumberland, who is so young, and whom I do not know? |
54884 | why should this noble house of Howard have suffered so much for me? |
51229 | How so, sweetheart? |
51229 | Nay, Sir,quoth she,"besides all that, what things hath he wrought within this realm to your great slander and dishonour? |
51229 | Why, then, I perceive,quoth the king,"ye are not the Cardinal''s friend?" |
51229 | ... Now what shall we say of these rich artisans of London? |
51229 | And in those days what did they when they helped the scholars? |
51229 | And now I would ask a strange question? |
51229 | And will ye know who it is? |
51229 | Are these the signs of fraternal love between you? |
51229 | Are ye not abominable schoolmasters in that ye take so great wages, if ye will not teach? |
51229 | Be these tokens of charity amongst you? |
51229 | But how shall I speak well of them? |
51229 | But now, me thinketh I hear one say unto me, wot you what you say? |
51229 | Came Christ to make the world more blind? |
51229 | For there is reigning in London as much pride, as much covetousness, as much cruelty, as much oppression, as much superstition, as was in Nebo? |
51229 | For what shall I look for among thornes but pricking and scratching? |
51229 | For what would you have them to do? |
51229 | How can we( as Peter commandeth) give a reason for our hope, when we wot not what it is that God hath promised or what to hope? |
51229 | How cometh it that God''s word pertaineth less unto us than unto them? |
51229 | How then hath it happened that we have had so many hundred years so many unpreaching prelates, lording loiterers, and idle ministers? |
51229 | I would fain know who controlleth the devil at home at his parish while he comptrolleth the mint? |
51229 | I would here ask one question? |
51229 | If the Apostles might not leave the office of preaching to be deacons, shall one leave it for minting? |
51229 | If ye would teach, how could ye do it so well and with so great profit as when the lay people have the Scripture before them in their mother tongue? |
51229 | Is it a labour? |
51229 | Is it a work? |
51229 | Is this a meet office for a prieste that hath the cure of Souls? |
51229 | Is this his charge? |
51229 | Is this their duty? |
51229 | Is this their office? |
51229 | Item, how many messes of meat shall be served for my Lord Cardinal and his chamber at the King''s charge; v or vi more or less? |
51229 | Item, to know whether the King''s grace will have any of his sergeant officers to attend upon the emperor, or yeomen for his mouth daily or not? |
51229 | Item, whether the emperor and his nobles shall be served with his own diaper,[12] or else with the king''s? |
51229 | Item, whether there shall be any banquetting, and in what places? |
51229 | No, no, I can not so do: alas, how can the poor souls live in concord when you preachers sow amongst them in your sermons debate and discord? |
51229 | Once yet again Of you I would frayne,[25] Why come ye not to court? |
51229 | Or if they look for light, and you bring them to darkness? |
51229 | Shall I call them proud men of London, malicious men of London, merciless men of London? |
51229 | Shall I now judge you charitable persons doing this? |
51229 | Should we have ministers of the Church to be comptrollers of the mints? |
51229 | To the King''s court? |
51229 | To which court? |
51229 | What among stones, but stumbling? |
51229 | What shall I say of such as cry up and maintain the cheat of pardons and indulgences? |
51229 | What shall I say of them? |
51229 | What( I had almost said) among serpents, but stinging? |
51229 | Wherefore serveth the curate but to teach them the right way? |
51229 | Wherefore were the holidays made but that the people should come and learn? |
51229 | Whether will your Holiness say, that you might do those things that you have done, or that you might not do them? |
51229 | Who is the most diligent bishop and prelate in all England, that passeth all the rest in doing his office? |
51229 | Yea, how cometh it that our Moseses forbid us and command us the contrary, and threat us if we do, and will not that we once speak of God''s word? |
51229 | [ 13] Item, whether the Emperor shall be served with his own silver vessels, or else with the king''s? |
51229 | [ Footnote 64:= ropes?] |
9947 | ''Am I?'' |
9947 | ''What was that?'' |
9947 | At the end, when the orb was put into her hand, she said,''What am I to do with it?'' |
9947 | Do you ever pray for her?'' |
9947 | He on his side could ask,''What am I, that such happiness should he mine? |
9947 | She said,''Were you asleep, dear papa?'' |
9947 | Were he to ask me,"What is a man''s most priceless possession?" |
9947 | Whenever she met any strangers in her usual paths, she always seemed, by the quickness of her glance, to inquire who and what they were? |
9947 | Will ye all swear to do her homage?" |

57372 | And Walpole, writing to Mason on July 29, 1773, says:"What are the Adelphi Buildings? |
57372 | And what was that, but that our dirty Besse( meaning his duchesse) should come to be Duchesse of Albemarle?" |
57372 | And why not wear them?-- Did not a lady- knight, late chevalier, A brave smart soldier in your eyes appear? |
57372 | Are there not as interesting varieties in such a life? |
57372 | Baggages, do you call smothering a man taking close order? |
57372 | But what was the employment that thus determined for so long a period his daily movements? |
57372 | Did his gaiety extend farther than his own nation?'' |
57372 | Do n''t you want to ask me how I liked him? |
57372 | Eh, my liege lord? |
57372 | Have I not seen in one season that man act seven- and- twenty times, and rise each time in excellence, and shall I be silent? |
57372 | Have you no idea who he is?'' |
57372 | I asked her the next day how she went through it? |
57372 | Is it not possible that the Duke of Northumberland received Durham House in reward for his discovery there of the illegal mint? |
57372 | Ladies, here''s oppression of the fair sex: for may n''t the most innocent of us smuggle a little, and never know it? |
57372 | Madam; who is the worse for being talked of uncharitably? |
57372 | Some the cause did maintain, That it should there remain, Or where can we go helter- skelter? |
57372 | The chemist, in amazement, said:''And you really meant to offer pecuniary aid to that person, sir? |
57372 | The latter, very agreeably surprised, exclaimed,''But what security am I to give you?'' |
57372 | Was ever poor married rogue in such a plight?" |

9503 | How came the stones here, for these sarsens or Druidical sandstones are not found in this neighborhood? |

48780 | The public squares are almost all regularly built; their form is oblong, from whence they take their name(?). 48780 Then, said the Magistrate, what induced you to go to the Tower? |
48780 | _ A._ The Widow Byrne-- who is she? 48780 _ First Gensdarme._ What is the news?" |
48780 | _ Q._ By virtue of your oath, Sir, will you swear you have not been at fifteen? 48780 _ Q._ Did you not rob the poor woman of every article in the house; even her bed- clothes, and the clothes off her back? |

48780 | _ Q._ Do you recollect stealing two flitches of bacon from Dovan, the Wexford Carman? 48780 _ Q._ How came you to snatch that article from the keeper? |

48780 | But, again, we ask, why purchase such a place when there are so many palaces unoccupied? |

45454 | ''Have you got any more money?'' |
45454 | ''How much?'' |
45454 | ''I am the captain of this ship,''was the answer;''are you the captain of the_ Aud_?'' |
45454 | ''Now then, where''s your captain?'' |
45454 | ''Then, first of all, would you mind telling me who you are?'' |
45454 | ''Time, please?'' |
45454 | ''Well, Battermann,''I said to the signalman, who entered,''what is it? |
45454 | ''Well, what is it?'' |
45454 | ''What about it?'' |
45454 | ''What in the name of Heaven''s wrong now?'' |

45454 | Almost ahead, a little on the starboard bow, another English ship was coming up, and to starboard-- yes, what the devil was that? |
45454 | Alter course? |
45454 | As soon as I stopped the ship other signals followed:''What ship is that?'' |
45454 | But how and when did he get away? |
45454 | But how to carry it out? |
45454 | But if so, where the deuce were the men who had lit them? |
45454 | But what is that? |
45454 | But what was that? |

45454 | Could there be something behind it? |
45454 | Could these be warnings intended for us? |
45454 | Damn it all, is the fellow going to escort us in to the Faroes? |
45454 | Did that mean rocks? |
45454 | Did the English know about our coming? |
45454 | Did they really not find anything curious in the idea that a ship of our type should be coming straight from the North Pole? |
45454 | Did they want to lull us into a false security? |
45454 | Did they want to lure us into a trap? |
45454 | Did this mean that we were near the underground passage? |
45454 | English? |
45454 | Had I been lodged here by way of reprisal or as a protection against further attacks? |
45454 | Had he really seen us yet, or not? |
45454 | Had the chauffeur led me into a trap? |
45454 | Had the revolution broken out already? |
45454 | Had they noticed something? |
45454 | He stared and stared between my legs at the locker, so I remarked quite casually,''Perhaps you would rather have a little whisky?'' |
45454 | If so, what was to happen? |
45454 | In order to forestall him, I shouted,''Shall I let down a ladder for your prize crew?'' |
45454 | In order to put an end to the business I now signalled,''May I proceed?'' |
45454 | Is everything at once in league against us? |
45454 | LAWFUL COMBATANT OR PIRATE? |
45454 | Moreover, to ascertain what the_ Bluebell_ intended with us I now signalled,''Where are we to anchor?'' |
45454 | My plan for the next day was complete, and I could now turn to the further questions, how should I get away again, and what should I do afterwards? |
45454 | Nevertheless, he had another try, shouting at me through the megaphone in a rasping tone,''Where are you from? |
45454 | Nothing whatever to attract our interest-- Stay, what was that? |
45454 | Now, what did this mean? |
45454 | Or were they afraid that we, with our two miserable lifeboats, were trying to ram and sink their great cruiser? |
45454 | Passenger liner or auxiliary cruiser? |
45454 | Perhaps it was a new dodge of the English to lull us into security so that they should catch us the more easily? |
45454 | Perhaps it was one of the men who had just been speaking to the sentry? |
45454 | Shall we get through unobserved? |
45454 | Shall we succeed?... |
45454 | Spindler?'' |
45454 | Surely it must be the pilot cutter already on the look- out for us? |
45454 | Surely not another of them?'' |
45454 | Their first question on getting in was:''Are you absentees?'' |
45454 | Then I held out the water- bottle and asked,''How much?'' |
45454 | There was quite a long pause before I heard him say to the mate,''Are all your Norwegian captains such bounders?'' |
45454 | Turn back? |
45454 | Was he afraid that the ladder would not carry his weight, or did he think the descent would be too unpleasant? |
45454 | Was he already in Ireland, and perhaps already arrested, or was he still on a submarine which had not yet arrived? |
45454 | Was it an alarm signal? |
45454 | Was it possible? |
45454 | Was not there a man standing on the pier? |
45454 | Was the Britisher keeping some big surprise up his sleeve, or did he really take us for what we pretended to be? |
45454 | We followed the proceedings very attentively-- and what do you think the English fished out? |
45454 | We heard von Spiegel say,''Did you ever see anything so silly?'' |
45454 | Well, but, if we stay, how long will they let us lie here? |
45454 | Were these men devils incarnate? |
45454 | Were we already?... |
45454 | Were we being followed already? |
45454 | Were we really to have such luck? |
45454 | What better could I have wished? |
45454 | What could be the explanation? |
45454 | What could that be? |
45454 | What have you to say to that?'' |
45454 | What if the Irish had struck their blow prematurely and now the west coast too had been placed under martial law? |
45454 | What the devil do they want?'' |
45454 | What was I to do? |
45454 | What were we to do? |
45454 | What would happen, then, if an Englishman suddenly jumped out of the fog upon us? |
45454 | What''s the meaning of this confounded drumming in the middle of the night?'' |
45454 | When I entered the cell my first thought was,''How am I to get out of this?'' |
45454 | When the usual questions,''Where was I from?'' |
45454 | Where are you from?'' |
45454 | Where did these rails lead to? |
45454 | Where on earth could the flying- ground be? |
45454 | Where on earth was Roger Casement then? |
45454 | Who could have foreseen it? |
45454 | Who could it be? |
45454 | Who could tell but that one of these stones covered the entrance to the tunnel? |
45454 | Who could tell but that they were posted there for our benefit? |
45454 | Why did the English never ask us, as they were in duty bound to do, where we were from and where we were bound for? |
45454 | Why did they snuff round us on all sides as one dog does to another? |
45454 | Why should we not be gay? |
45454 | You are Lieutenant Spindler, and your friend is Winkelmann from Donington Hall, are n''t you?'' |
45454 | and''Where was I bound for?'' |
45454 | or German? |
45454 | what is one to make of such a series? |
34812 | And he with it? |
34812 | And how long is it since we met? |
34812 | And practising? 34812 And which do you speak best, or like best?" |
34812 | Apropos? |
34812 | Are we to think that friction is the best result? |
34812 | At last? |
34812 | But in eating and drinking? 34812 But, M. le Général, the election?" |
34812 | Can you drop the work and come with me? |
34812 | D''ye call him great? |
34812 | D''ye think I''d preach the Gospel for money? 34812 Dear, dear, who has done this thing?" |
34812 | Did you ever have another Meredith day? |
34812 | Do n''t you think it depressing to listen to Carnegie''s ca nt about his intention to die poor? |
34812 | Do they say that of me? 34812 Do what? |
34812 | Does not the greater include the less? |
34812 | Hand on heart? |
34812 | Has he been here? |
34812 | Has poor old Ireland another grievance? |
34812 | How are you? 34812 How can a man have an attitude toward a continent? |
34812 | How can that be? |
34812 | How do men get bored? |
34812 | How do you get into personal touch with your college students? |
34812 | How far can we transmit electricity for power and lighting purposes? |
34812 | I am to wear them for that priest, eh? |
34812 | I could n''t resist that, could I? |
34812 | I say,said Whistler to me,"are you stewarding? |
34812 | If they forbid him, why should they compel me? |
34812 | Is he trying to elude me? 34812 Is this my meeting or yours?" |
34812 | Madame,said he,"may I ask a question?" |
34812 | Making yourself at home here, are n''t you? |
34812 | Oh, are you a journalist? |
34812 | Shall I put in this, or omit that? 34812 Shall we say the same thing of theology? |
34812 | Some of these should be included, do n''t you think so? 34812 Suppose he should n''t defend himself?" |
34812 | Suppose you work with a night shift? 34812 Surprising, is n''t it?" |
34812 | Terms all right? |
34812 | That was the discovery? |
34812 | The defect of specialised training, eh? |
34812 | Then why not talk of him? |
34812 | Was he ever here? 34812 Well, what of it? |
34812 | Well? |
34812 | What else could he do? 34812 What have I done?" |
34812 | What is the history of your Society? |
34812 | What would you say of me? |
34812 | What''s that? |
34812 | What? |
34812 | Where have you come from now? |
34812 | Where''s our friend----? 34812 Where,"replied Whistler,"where should an honest Londoner go at this hour but home to dine? |
34812 | Who is O''Shea? |
34812 | Who''s gone? |
34812 | Why America? |
34812 | Why not, then, for Ireland? |
34812 | Why''enemy''? |
34812 | Will he come in his altar robes and stole? |
34812 | Will it be all right if I stand here? 34812 Yes, but, Mr. Gladstone, if the opponent_ does n''t_ fight fairly?" |
34812 | Yes, but-- will he do? 34812 Yes,"said he,"and you are the writer of that article?" |
34812 | You do n''t agree with your old friend about that policy? |
34812 | Your husband: does he share these views? |
34812 | ''After all,''said the prince,''why should you stay in London when the whole world is only too glad to make pilgrimages to Craig- y- Nos?'' |
34812 | ''Where''d you get''em, Burns?'' |
34812 | A million a year pouring through the steerages? |
34812 | Alarmed I asked,''What is the matter?'' |
34812 | And did you come in a boat?" |
34812 | And how did they get to Cornwall? |
34812 | And how? |
34812 | And if he were so, why? |
34812 | And if the Ulster problem presents such"vast difficulties", what becomes of the famous panacea-- Self- Determination? |
34812 | And is the argument for majority rule, based, as it is usually, upon the majority in Ireland, more valid? |
34812 | And then immediately, and with a seraph''s smile,"May I pass you a wing?" |
34812 | And then it was: how does he escape from carrying his mannerisms into private life? |
34812 | And then the welter of immigrations on top of these? |
34812 | And who, in those days, would buy sculpture from an"artist unknown"? |
34812 | And why should n''t they be? |
34812 | And, being in London, why not write about London? |
34812 | And, though the ideals of Ulster are not the ideals of the rest of Ireland, must Ulster be punished for her ideals? |
34812 | Are there such pitites now, I wonder, as there were thirty and forty years ago? |
34812 | Are we coming to a time when Shaving will be forbidden because razors are dangerous? |
34812 | Are you safe in asserting that Edmund Kean''s name will not add another century to its credit? |
34812 | At any rate he would have been the prince of_ chefs_ as he was"the prince of journalists", or was it the king the public called him? |
34812 | Before adopting a policy he would ask himself,"Is this right?" |
34812 | Broken now, for the first time in three centuries, who shall replace them? |
34812 | But I do n''t know what to do, do you? |
34812 | But has the fashion changed in God? |
34812 | But then, why had not Parnell sent word or left word, making another appointment? |
34812 | But what can be done? |
34812 | But what is your favourite, if you have a favourite among them?" |
34812 | But what party would that be? |
34812 | But who could speak of him in other words than those of love? |
34812 | But who ever thinks of that? |
34812 | But why did n''t somebody_ start something_? |
34812 | But why should n''t he have been? |
34812 | But will it diminish? |
34812 | By the way, what is his name? |
34812 | Came by the eleven train, eh? |
34812 | Can we find the way to make money without becoming its slaves, as almost all men are who make it?" |
34812 | Concerning the latter, he asked me:{ 247}"What made you certain in advance?" |
34812 | Could R- H. see the private room in which General Boulanger and his friends would dine that evening? |
34812 | Could any important thoroughfare be more conducive to depression of{ 11} spirits than Victoria Street? |
34812 | Could anything be uglier than the National Gallery? |
34812 | Did I give the date? |
34812 | Did"the opposed"in Mr. Gladstone''s wars beware of him, or of his England? |
34812 | Do n''t you think that any little woman would be proud, and ought to be proud, of a spontaneous tribute like that?" |
34812 | Do you mind looking''em over, with an eye to correction, while you wait? |
34812 | Does it salute for integrity and courage any political personage of to- day? |
34812 | Done? |
34812 | Drummond was saying, as we sat before the fire, drawing clouds from churchwardens:{ 172}"I do n''t believe in old saws, do you? |
34812 | Eighty years? |
34812 | First it had been: how did this man of many mannerisms ever become an actor and one of the most distinguished actors of his time? |
34812 | For how could Kelvin, who was always peering into the future, be afraid of new things? |
34812 | For who had more knowledge of natural philosophy, or so much, as Lord Kelvin? |
34812 | Had Jimmie cooked the dinner while Mrs. Whistler arranged the table with its dainty ware, and silver, and soft linen, and shaded lights? |
34812 | Had an unpremeditated feast produced itself by Jimmie''s conjuring? |
34812 | Had they been unpacking china and linen and chairs, while the maid foraged the neighbouring shops? |
34812 | Have I conveyed the impression that these were wealthy folk? |
34812 | Have I mentioned the wine that graced the basket, and the miraculous green peas that were to melt in the mouth? |
34812 | Have the Prince and Princess visited Craig- y- Nos?" |
34812 | Have you found your dockers suspicious regarding you?" |
34812 | Have you read''em? |
34812 | Have you rigid rules for that? |
34812 | Have you seen him?" |
34812 | He had published a pamphlet called"Great Britain and Rome, or Ought the Queen to Hold Diplomatic Relations with the Sovereign Pontiff?" |
34812 | Healthy, if you like, but how wealthy and how wise is the manual labourer? |
34812 | Heavens!--How many years ago? |
34812 | How can it be described, any more than the charm of a charming woman? |
34812 | How could one be bored when host and{ 50} hostess gave no thought to themselves but all their thought to their guests? |
34812 | How could she know that every one in the Castle welcomed the rain because it meant a few hours more with Patti? |
34812 | How did it happen?" |
34812 | How else should youth see anything? |
34812 | How long has the fame of Roscius lasted? |
34812 | How long must fame last to satisfy all reasonable requirements? |
34812 | How many minutes?" |
34812 | How many tens of years ago was that? |
34812 | How will you prove now that Macready''s name is less well known than Macaulay''s? |
34812 | I can imagine Stanley asking himself:"When can I get out of this?" |
34812 | I have heard that the first question asked of new vocalists nowadays is''How high can you sing?'' |
34812 | I was talking with two{ 214} or three arrivals when a familiar voice behind me asked:"Are we alone in Africa?" |
34812 | If there are people who drink to excess, are there none who eat excessively? |
34812 | If you do n''t base education on it, what is the use of education? |
34812 | In an age of democracy shall a minority rule? |
34812 | Is it necessary to say that he was not born to baronies? |
34812 | Is it only one''s own side that must beware of a policy of dilly- dally? |
34812 | Is it so evanescent? |
34812 | Is it strange then that we stayed for dinner, having already taken luncheon, tea, and a stroll with the magician of Box Hill? |
34812 | Is that the way you keep the run of the news?" |
34812 | Is there anything to eat?" |
34812 | It flew there through the week of my visit, for was I not an ambassador from the American Public to the Queen of Song? |
34812 | It''s all stew, is n''t it? |
34812 | John Burns, are you under any delusions about popularity? |
34812 | Journalism a''profession'', eh? |
34812 | May I offer a suggestion?" |
34812 | May I whisper in your ear? |
34812 | Must she then be punished for her{ 254} loyalty and punished by Britain? |
34812 | No Committee? |
34812 | Of what use was knowledge if it were not applied to the needs of man? |
34812 | One day when, like Rosalind, he was in"a coming- on disposition", I asked,"What is your real attitude towards America?" |
34812 | Or Kemble''s name? |
34812 | Or are we believing, according to habit, merely what we have been told? |
34812 | Or had they reversed the parts? |
34812 | Rimmel''s perfumery warehouse stood where the Savoy is now, and that sordid adventurer Hobbs( or was it Jabez Balfour?) |
34812 | Tell me-- without looking him up in a Book of Reference-- who was Plunket? |
34812 | That anxiety vanished as the editor asked:"Are you at liberty to do any more work of that kind, or of any special kind, for us?" |
34812 | The Indians, the Mexicans, the Spaniards, the French, the Negroes? |
34812 | The dear old gentleman with the domed head, the white hair, and generous white beard seemed to be asking himself,"What next? |
34812 | The ladies did not withdraw, according to the mediæval( and shall I say popular?) |
34812 | The monocle was thrust to the eye again where it seemed to flash the question,"What do you think of that?" |
34812 | The names of how many princes, generals, preachers, statesmen, survive their deaths a hundred years? |
34812 | Then, with much concern for the succession, he asked:"D''ye think likely Mr. Hallam will follow his father''s business?" |
34812 | There will certainly be some one to exclaim, when he sees the heading of this chapter,"Why drag Boulanger into_ London Days_?" |
34812 | They asked at one time--"Why is he?" |
34812 | They pay her expenses, for what more does the_ honorarium_ amount to? |
34812 | They wo n''t fear I''ll bite''em, will they, if there''s no manager to keep me tied up?" |
34812 | Was I licensed? |
34812 | Was Parnell a great man? |
34812 | Was it his devotion to the freedom of human kind? |
34812 | Was n''t that nice of him?" |
34812 | We''re luckier than you, in America, where you have-- what is it? |
34812 | What caused Irving''s mannerisms? |
34812 | What caused them? |
34812 | What chance is there of filling it? |
34812 | What do we profess? |
34812 | What do you suppose he''s done now? |
34812 | What do you think of your discovery? |
34812 | What has all this to do with Henry Irving? |
34812 | What is there in it for the blacks?" |
34812 | What of the rest of Ireland? |
34812 | What public"improvement"could be shabbier than Shaftsbury Avenue, meaner than newer Whitehall, or more commonplace than Kingsway and Aldwych? |
34812 | What reason have we to suppose that it will not? |
34812 | What reason is there for assuming that Byron''s will live longer than that? |
34812 | What was the outstanding achievement of his life, the thing, above all, by which posterity will remember him? |
34812 | What was the spell he cast upon his hearers? |
34812 | What''s that?" |
34812 | What''s your paper?" |
34812 | When had those five words, or any five, unloosed{ 150} such clamour? |
34812 | When since? |
34812 | When the Prince and Princess of Wales learned that I was too ill to accept their gracious invitation, they-- well, what do you suppose they did next?" |
34812 | When was the like known before? |
34812 | Whence came their tin? |
34812 | Where were the marching crowds that were singing"The Marseillaise"? |
34812 | Where would you put Gladstone as compared with your other hero, Moody? |
34812 | Where?" |
34812 | Which way are you going?" |
34812 | Whistler sprang to his feet, and falling back in mock horror, cried, as he stared at Wores,"_ Et tu, Brute?_"The room shook with laughter. |
34812 | Who can tell? |
34812 | Who is he?" |
34812 | Who reads him now? |
34812 | Who shall say it was not justified, or that it was unnatural? |
34812 | Who were the chancellors of exchequer during Henry Irving''s reign? |
34812 | Who were the leaders of the House of Commons? |
34812 | Whoever went among''em before those days with any other purpose than to get the best of''em?" |
34812 | Why all this fuss and feathers?" |
34812 | Why had n''t he, I wondered, taken the outside stairs that led from Villiers Street into the station? |
34812 | Why should n''t they be? |
34812 | Why should we expect Britain to permit the secession of Ireland? |
34812 | Will the gap ever be filled again? |
34812 | Will ye ring the bell? |
34812 | Wo n''t the panacea work in Ulster''s case? |
34812 | Wo n''t you find out how he would receive a proposal, and advise us how best to make an approach?" |
34812 | Would I advise? |
34812 | Would I preach the splendid possibilities in man, to sink to the beasts which perish, or to rise to heaven itself? |
34812 | Would M. le Général talk with me a little while the artist drew? |
34812 | Would not anybody say that the Methodist mountain in Westminster is frozen pudding? |
34812 | Would we smoke? |
34812 | Would{ 53} any one of the three ever write of this scene in England''s history, I wondered? |
34812 | You heard of that? |
34812 | { 164}"Did n''t you tell me, the other day, that you intended redecorating this place?" |
34812 | { 180}"You think so?" |
34812 | { 260} CHAPTER XVII"LE BRAV''GÉNÉRAL"Who_ was_ Boulanger? |
6671 | Strange to see how they hold up their hands crying, What shall we do? 6671 To whom,"he asked again,"was the money to be paid?" |
6671 | But Clarendon tells us that, strangely enough, the only question was, Who would give the highest price? |
6671 | But do they leave us to seek for new grounds for Clarendon''s approaching fall? |
6671 | But, beyond that, what shape was the Restoration to take in Scotland? |
6671 | Can England point to one who at once filled a larger part in her history, and left a more enduring monument in the annals of her literature? |
6671 | Had the Chancellor, asked the Duke, ever proposed to govern by an army? |
6671 | How did matters really stand between Charles and his people? |
6671 | How far was it possible, consistently with the claims of justice and the paramount supremacy of law? |
6671 | How was it possible he could be such a sot?" |
6671 | If Evelyn''s ghost still haunts the scene, what are its reflections now?] |
6671 | Might not, at least, only parts of it be revived, to be mingled with more edifying forms of extempore prayer? |
6671 | Nay, more, how could he trust that he would not be captured at the first attempt to escape? |
6671 | Or was Presbytery to assume its former domination, and to dictate to the sovereign the terms on which he was to be permitted to reign? |
6671 | Says my Lord Treasurer,''Why, what means all this, Mr. Pepys? |
6671 | The first answer of Clarendon in reply to this not very palatable speech was to ask whom the King proposed to make Treasurer in Southampton''s place? |
6671 | The question was, To what did Charles''s Declaration at Breda pledge him? |
6671 | This is all true, you say; but what would you have me to do? |
6671 | Were all genuine Royalists to have a right to claim what was once their property? |
6671 | Were the older cavaliers to be uppermost, and with them was Episcopacy to be restored? |
6671 | What is become of that fool? |
6671 | What was to be the texture of the restored Church, and how far could a compromise be reached between the Church and the Nonconformists? |
6671 | Why will not people lend their money? |
6671 | Why will they not trust the King as well as Oliver?''" |
6671 | Would Monk support them in this contest? |
6469 | Did you kiss her hand? |
6469 | Stay,she said abruptly, but not unkindly;"who are you? |
6469 | Who is that? |
6469 | ''Well, what did you think of her?'' |
6469 | Ah, must it always be so? |
6469 | Ah, why_ green_, O Queen? |
6469 | Albemarle adds that he, boy- like, taunted her with her culinary failure, saying:"_ You_ would make a pretty Queen, would n''t you?" |
6469 | But what does it matter to the dead, how many"deadly enemies"are made? |
6469 | Does His Royal Highness ever propose such a tour in Ireland? |
6469 | How is it, your Royal Highness? |
6469 | I wonder if he continued to say that all his mutilated life? |
6469 | I wonder if her Serene Highness kept fond motherly records of the babyhood and childhood of the Queen? |
6469 | It is true, he did not come very heroically by his imperial crown-- but when crowns are lying about loose, who can blame a man for helping himself? |
6469 | Magistrate:"Do you mean to say you have worn but one shirt all the time?" |
6469 | Magistrate:"You are a sweep, are you?" |
6469 | On the Queen saying to him,"I wonder if my good people of London are as glad to see me as I am to see them?" |
6469 | On the next visit, he was introduced to the Prince of Wales, whom he addressed with a startling,"How are you, Prince?" |
6469 | Poet? |
6469 | Poor dear Puss wished much to go with us and often said,''Why am I not going to Germany?'' |
6469 | Said of him one English statesman to another,"Did you ever know such a fool as that fellow is? |
6469 | She approached the supposed workman and, said:"Pray can you tell me when the new carpet will be put down in the Privy Council Chamber?" |
6469 | She shrank from the dreadful task, and with tears in her eyes, asked:"Have you nothing to say in behalf of this man?" |
6469 | The incautious, but ever- curious Princess, turning her head, asked,"What''s slape?" |
6469 | Trials we must have; but what are they if we are together?" |

47123 | A letter to the queen concerning his household shows how sensible the prince was, especially in his determination to side with no party? |
47123 | After a lesson in natural history, her governess once asked,"In what country is the lion to be found?" |
47123 | As the prime minister mentioned the names, the aged duke eagerly asked,"Who? |

47123 | During his progress through the streets with his guests the regent was incessantly hissed, and the mob called out,"Where''s your wife?" |
47123 | He drew his sword and tried to defend himself, but what chance had one man against four well- armed ones? |
47123 | He had only one question to ask about his son''s wife:"Is she good- humored?" |
47123 | His pretty limping gait?" |
47123 | How the King of England would boast? |
47123 | I heard it, however, again, and the queen called out:''What is that?'' |
47123 | I said,''Sir, had you not better have a glass of water?'' |
47123 | I turned to Victoria, who was seated on my right, and asked her,''Did you hear that?'' |

47123 | The new administration was called the"Who? |
47123 | The prince looked at him for a moment or two, and then said:''Tom, Tom, what have you been doing? |
47123 | The princess was speaking on this subject, and then said: Was there ever anything so unaccountable as the temper of papa? |
47123 | The question was, whether or no the war was to be continued, whether or no Lord Palmerston was to resign? |
47123 | The regent will hear it? |

7948 | Hout man,replied the other,"are ye in the heart o''Glasgow, and speer the name of it?" |
7948 | I suppose, then,said I,"you recollect something of Lord Byron, when he used to visit here?" |
7948 | The third time, after a still longer pause, The shadow pass''d away-- but where? 7948 And did he see this? 7948 And have I not cause for gloomy reflections? 7948 And pray who is the Little White Lady? |
7948 | But when did a human being ever exercise an influence more salutary and benignant? |

7948 | where is Lethe''s fabled stream? |
45130 | ''Do n''t you know me, Mr Bradlaugh?'' 45130 And did you?" |
45130 | Could_ that_ be the redoubtable Iconoclast? |
45130 | DEAR LINTON,--Do you know Thomson''s address or how to get at it? 45130 How dared she write her brother? |
45130 | My dear Mr Bradlaugh,Can you? |
45130 | Outlaw or citizen? |
45130 | Where did you walk during that time? 45130 Who will buy our bishopric?" |

45130 | : Have you not made statements in public against the existence of God? |
45130 | : Have you not said,"There is no God"? |
45130 | After asking a number of questions about Broadhead and trades unions, Mr O''Malley asked:"Do you believe in the existence of a God?" |
45130 | Again Mr Wood put the question:"Do you believe in God?" |
45130 | All this he did in his opening half- hour''s address, but where could anything like''fun''be found in it all? |
45130 | Am I a Secularist that I should lie, or an infidel committee- man that I should violate a ratified agreement?" |
45130 | Am I outlaw or citizen-- which? |
45130 | And so it came to pass that the pamphlet appeared with the title--''Tyrannicide: is it Justifiable? |
45130 | Approaching me, the leader then asked, in the name of his Majesty Carlos VII., in a mixture of French and Spanish, if I had anything contraband? |

45130 | By the following evening the temper of the Wiganites had become-- what shall I say? |
45130 | Can you conceive anything more wretched? |
45130 | Do they remember the procession, I wonder, when men and women marched through the incessant downpour, the women as earnest as the men? |
45130 | Do you believe in the existence of a supreme God? |
45130 | Has not this been the law of England, and is it not in fact the sentiment of certain Englishmen even to- day? |
45130 | He asked,"But why?" |
45130 | Hence, according to the usual procedure, Mr Digby Seymour began:"You are the proprietor of the_ National Reformer_, I think?" |
45130 | How dared she ask such a question?" |
45130 | If they had been Communists instead of Carlists, what then?... |
45130 | In spite of all these precautions( or was it because of them?) |
45130 | In the meantime, who can tell how many were the visitors to that little study at the back, over the kitchen? |
45130 | Is it in your library? |
45130 | Is the doctrine of Original Sin, as taught in the Bible, theoretically unjust and practically pernicious? |
45130 | Is the doctrine of personal existence after death, and of eternal happiness or misery for mankind, fraught with error and injurious to humanity?" |
45130 | It may be asked, but what was the outcome of all these meetings, what was their practical value? |
45130 | It may well be asked, What has become of all this Republican fervour? |
45130 | It was cruel and cowardly to kill the hostages, but was it for the Versailles troops to reproach the Commune with that? |
45130 | It was originally intended to hold a set debate upon the subject"Has Man a Soul?" |
45130 | J. H. Rutherford, and was held in Liverpool in October 1860; another upon"What does the Bible teach about God?" |
45130 | Je lis quelque fois vos discours-- vous traversez une crise-- quel en sera le résultat? |
45130 | May I ask if you think Christianity has a ludicrous aspect? |
45130 | More Christian? |
45130 | Mr Bradlaugh had scarcely commenced to speak when a Royton Police Sergeant called roughly to him to come down:-- ICONOCLAST:"Why?" |
45130 | Mr Bradlaugh pointed out that the Temperance advocates used the Park; why should not he? |
45130 | Mr Prentice:"Do you believe in a future state of rewards and punishments?" |
45130 | Mr S.: At all events, under your eloquent handling, I believe Christianity has been made to assume ridiculous aspects? |
45130 | Mr S.: Do you know a work called"The Ludicrous Aspects of Christianity"? |
45130 | Mr S.: I think you hold strong opinions on political subjects as well as on religion? |
45130 | Mr S.: Oh, you state that, do you? |
45130 | Mr S.: Then you think that Christianity has a ludicrous aspect? |
45130 | Mr Truelove, however, suggested that it should be called''Tyrannicide: is it Justifiable?'' |
45130 | Mr. S.: Without putting it unfairly, you hold extreme opinions? |
45130 | My father asked,"What wages?" |
45130 | My object in now addressing you is to ascertain if there is any probability of my obtaining my articles from you, and if so, at what period? |

45130 | The subject for the discussion, which was held in the Temperance Hall, was"Is the Bible a divine revelation?" |
45130 | The subject for the evening address was,"Were Adam and Eve our first parents?" |
45130 | The_ Standard_ on the 11th of March reprinted from it the article,"Who are the Leaguers?" |
45130 | To many Mr Bradlaugh was known only by fame, and if a fresh person came into the hall the question,"Is that he?" |
45130 | To seek a situation seemed useless: what was to be done? |
45130 | To try the actual value of the argument,"he said,"it is not unfair to ask, Did a Theist ever steal? |
45130 | To whom should he turn for help and sympathy if not to those for whose opinions he was now suffering? |
45130 | WHICH AM I? |
45130 | What am I to do? |

46648 | But have you not dreamed since? |
46648 | But how, Nottburg, sweetest, is that to be done? 46648 But how?" |
46648 | But who_ is_ dead? |
46648 | Did you never notice,said he,"that the foxglove always turns its flowers towards the road-- it never looks into the hedge?" |
46648 | Gentleman''s head? 46648 Have I, doctor?" |
46648 | Have you children? |
46648 | Have you had toothache since? |
46648 | I say,remarked the sexton,"ai n''t he the minister? |
46648 | It is spoiling your custom? |
46648 | My boy, when you take a baby from one room to another you do not carry it by the hair of its little head, do you? 46648 Not more? |
46648 | Now what do you makes''em out to mane? |
46648 | Thomas,said I one evening over the fire to this miller,"how long have you been married?" |
46648 | Well, captain,said I,"and did you make a fortune out at the Australian goldfields?" |
46648 | What can be done? 46648 What do you mean?" |
46648 | What old man? 46648 Whose piece of bread and butter is that?" |
46648 | Why,said he,"what is all this about? |
46648 | Will you believe it, sir? 46648 You have not the teeth now?" |
46648 | You said something about knowing who it was whose grave you had disturbed? |
46648 | You want an elderly man, my lord? |
46648 | _ Sir Chas._ But you are not the forest, and why the devil do you groan for it? 46648 _ Sir Chas._ What day of the month was it yesterday, when I left town? |
46648 | And is it not better to leave things alone, than put them into the hands of strangers? |
46648 | And then, doan''t it say in Scriptur,''The gates shall not be shut at all?'' |
46648 | Are doctors not still somewhat prone to administer calomel? |
46648 | Ask you why Clodis broke through every rule? |
46648 | But if he thinks that it will go into other hands, will he for this purpose deny himself present luxuries and amusements? |
46648 | But now this ere new mill wi''the steam ingens and the electric light-- someone must pay for all that, and who is that but the customers? |
46648 | But to whom do they belong? |
46648 | But what have you done with the skull?" |
46648 | But when the west gallery is gone, whither is the organ to go? |
46648 | Had anyone retained it? |
46648 | He sent his medicines, but how could he be sure that they were taken, or taken regularly? |
46648 | How do they manage it? |
46648 | How was it, and how were similar little properties acquired? |
46648 | I hope you mean to stay on the spot for some time, Sir Charles? |
46648 | I went back to Marianne and said,"Now, tell me why you will go on living in this ruin?" |
46648 | In George Coleman''s capital play,"The Heir at Law,"Lady Daberly says to her son Dick,"A farmer!--and what''s a farmer, my dear?" |

46648 | One day the rector said to him:"I want to have my school treat next Thursday-- should rain fall, may I take the children into the old hall?" |
46648 | Richard?" |
46648 | Shall I do it, or run up to town, go to the opera, eat, drink, and enjoy myself, and spend the money on myself?" |
46648 | Tell me, now, am I not right?" |
46648 | The ordinary farmer is not a reader-- how can he be, when he is out of doors all day, and up in the morning before daybreak? |
46648 | The seat lifted-- for what think you? |
46648 | Then I added,"What in the name of Wonder makes you think so?" |
46648 | Then the rector put his head through the window, and said,"Will you? |
46648 | This was not very musical; but what else could be done, when the power to read print was not present in the congregation? |
46648 | To what will they lead? |
46648 | Was not grey powder much the same? |
46648 | Was that possible? |

46648 | Which makes the best man in the end? |
46648 | Who among us who are getting old do not recall the peculiar curranty savour of the ancient dining- room? |
46648 | Who does not remember old Isaac Walton and his merry ballad- singing dairymaid? |
46648 | Who pays for the coals? |
46648 | Who pays for the electric light? |
46648 | Why did you not retain them?" |
46648 | Why is this? |
46648 | Why is this? |
46648 | Why not have the stem telescopic? |
46648 | Why should the ceiling alone be left in hideous baldness, in fact, absolutely plain? |
46648 | Why then should the ceilings of our rooms be blank surfaces? |
46648 | Wot do that mean but that he''s sent by the bishop to minister to us and do jist as us likes?" |
46648 | Would not the same have been the case had our squires and parsons continued to frequent the village inn? |
46648 | Would not their presence have acted as a check on over much drinking? |
46648 | Would you care to go down and see it? |
46648 | _ Voila tout!_""And the banner waving augustly above the tower?" |
46648 | exclaimed the doctor,"what are you about?" |

59754 | But what do you_ think_ of it( the excommunication)? 59754 Could he do less to the star which he had so completely made his satellite?" |
59754 | Did you excommunicate the King at the Torwood, or were you there at the time? |
59754 | Do you know from whom it comes? |
59754 | He served you rightly,said Cameron, in the same language;"why did you skirmish so far in front?" |
59754 | How comes it, sir,said he, with severity,"that you did not deliver this letter to me sooner?" |
59754 | How long since? |
59754 | How so? |
59754 | How used you to pray among them? |
59754 | In God''s name, what is the matter Mor''ar? |
59754 | Mr. Blackadder,said he,"of what family are you-- the House of Tulliallan?" |
59754 | Sir,replied the duke,"do you know to whom you are speaking?" |
59754 | Sire,urged Macdonald,"are you ignorant that a provisional government has been established?" |
59754 | Think you,asked the Emperor,"it will join with me in a movement upon Paris?" |
59754 | Well, Duke of Tarentum,said the former, before the marshal left Fontainebleau,"do you think a regency is the only thing possible?" |
59754 | What,exclaimed the general,"did you also send_ me_ to hell, sir?" |
59754 | Where? |

59754 | How is your division disposed?" |
59754 | I replied,''_ Most decidedly a republic._''He asked again,''Are you sure?'' |
59754 | On the way Cameron asked if the enemy had been defeated? |
59754 | Shall I Win Her? |
59754 | The hills and the valleys are there, but the tribes have departed, and who can restore them? |

2447 | But man is more various than nature; was Mr. Gladstone, perhaps, a chimera of the spirit? |
2447 | But nothing broke the immovability of that hard horizon; and, indeed, how was it possible that help should come to him now? |
2447 | But the centre of the labyrinth? |
2447 | But then, could he sit by and witness a horrible catastrophe, without lifting a hand? |
2447 | But then, those vistas, where were they leading? |
2447 | But then, what did that matter? |
2447 | But was that in truth, his only motive? |
2447 | But what else could he do? |
2447 | But what was the position of the Unitarians? |
2447 | But what were rumours? |
2447 | But who could tell whether all these were not impostors? |
2447 | But would an English general ever have the opportunity of asking him to dinner in Khartoum? |
2447 | But, after all, what is illness, when there is a War Office to be reorganised? |
2447 | But, if something came to him--? |
2447 | But, when Sir Evelyn Baring actually arrived-- in whatever condition-- what would happen? |
2447 | By bringing them into close and friendly contact with civilised men, and even, perhaps, with civilised women? |
2447 | By introducing into the life of his school all that he could of the humane, enlightened, and progressive elements in the life of the community? |
2447 | Can it be that he has, or has had, some great trouble in his life, and that he fights recklessly to forget it, or that Death has no terrors for him?'' |
2447 | Compared with such an object, what were the claims of personal affection and domestic peace? |
2447 | Could Dr. Pusey see his way to releasing him from the vow? |
2447 | Could I have said more in all the words of the world?'' |
2447 | Could a state of mind, in fact, be revealed with more absolute transparency? |
2447 | Could he be of any use? |
2447 | Could it be--? |
2447 | Could it have been that the time allotted to it was insufficient? |
2447 | Could it not then at least be said of him with certainty that his was a complex character? |
2447 | Did he not wish in reality, by lingering in Khartoum, to force the hand of the Government? |
2447 | Did his very essence lie in the confusion of incompatibles? |
2447 | Did it not imply that he had lightly declined a proposal for which in reality he was deeply thankful? |
2447 | Did not Sir Evelyn Baring, too, have the mystic feeling? |
2447 | Did not the Fathers refer to the tradition of the Church as to something independent of the written word, and sufficient to refute heresy, even alone? |
2447 | Did the words bear no meaning to the mystic of Gravesend? |
2447 | Do you suppose that we should not look after you?'' |
2447 | Does she not care for the souls of all around her, steeped and stifled in Protestantism? |
2447 | Eh what? |
2447 | For this he was very properly chastised; but, of what use was chastisement? |
2447 | Had a dominating character imposed itself upon a hostile environment? |
2447 | Had any of it been worthwhile? |
2447 | Had contradiction and difference ceased upon the earth? |
2447 | Had he not a mysterious consolation which outweighed every grief? |
2447 | Had he not been heard to express opinions of most doubtful propriety upon the question of the Temporal Power? |
2447 | Had it, perhaps, a place in its heart for such as Manning-- a soft place, one might almost say? |
2447 | Had not even she been an unprofitable servant? |
2447 | He himself had said so, and who would disbelieve the holy man? |
2447 | He made advances through a common friend; what had he done, he asked, to offend Dr. Newman? |
2447 | He was a Christian hero, was n''t he? |
2447 | His twenty- second strange thought was as follows:''How do I know where I may be two years hence? |
2447 | His very essence? |
2447 | How could an infant in arms be said to be in a state of faith and repentance? |
2447 | How could he desert his people? |
2447 | How could he go away? |
2447 | How could he have forgotten that? |
2447 | How could he have guessed that one day he would come to number that loss among''God''s special mercies? |
2447 | How could she rest while these things were as they were, while, if the like necessity were to arise again, the like results would follow? |
2447 | How had it happened that this piece of patchwork had become the receptacle for the august and infinite mysteries of the Christian Faith? |
2447 | How had this come about? |
2447 | How is he now?"'' |
2447 | How is it possible that anyone can have done this?'' |
2447 | How many who cared at all for the sick, or had done anything for their relief? |
2447 | How much did he, as loyal a son of the Church and the Holy See as ever was, what did he suffer because Dr. Cullen was against him? |
2447 | How soon might not the long- predestined hour strike, when the twelfth Imam, the guide, the Mahdi, would reveal himself to the world?'' |
2447 | How was it to be determined, for instance, which particular Papal decisions did in fact come within the scope of the definition? |
2447 | How, then, are we to explain the Government''s action? |
2447 | How, therefore, could its original sin be washed away by baptism? |
2447 | If it was true-- and he believed it was true-- that General Gordon''s line of retreat was open, why did not General Gordon use it? |
2447 | If it was, were not the Reformers of the sixteenth century renegades? |
2447 | If that were to happen, how could the English Government avoid the necessity of sending an expedition to rescue him? |
2447 | If the call were to come to him to take his talent out of the napkin, how could he refuse? |
2447 | If the landscapes of Italy only served to remind him of it, how could he forget it among the boys at Rugby School? |
2447 | If the text of Scripture was to be submitted to the searchings of human reason, how could the question of its inspiration escape the same tribunal? |
2447 | If they were, did it not follow that the power of administering the Holy Eucharist was the attribute of a sacred order founded by Christ Himself? |
2447 | In the face of such enormities what could Keble do? |
2447 | In the ordinary course of things, how could such a paragraph have been inserted without his authority? |
2447 | Is there indeed no radical and essential distinction between supremacy and infallibility? |
2447 | It might be''a trial'', or again it might be a''leading''; how was he to judge? |
2447 | It was only too true; what WERE the prospects of a supernumerary clerk in the Colonial Office? |
2447 | It was very odd-- what could be the matter with dear Flo? |
2447 | Let them look at her lying there pale and breathless on the couch; could it be said that she spared herself? |
2447 | Let''s have a good breakfast-- a little b. and s. Do you feel up to it?'' |
2447 | Madness? |
2447 | Men think giving dinners is conferring a favour on you... Why not give dinners to those who need them?'' |
2447 | Might it not be his plain duty to take? |
2447 | Might it not be the will of God? |
2447 | Might it not come as an offence, as a scandal even, to those unacquainted with the niceties of Catholic dogma? |
2447 | Might not the twelfth Imam be still waiting, in mystical concealment, ready to emerge, at any moment, at the bidding of God? |
2447 | Mr. Gladstone agreed with him; but there was One higher than Mr. Gladstone, and did He agree? |
2447 | My dear father, how can you be so foolish?'' |
2447 | Now, supposing that General Gordon, in response to a popular agitation in the Press, were sent to Khartoum, what would follow? |
2447 | Now, when her opportunity had come at last; now, when the iron was hot, and it was time to strike? |
2447 | Only one question remained to be answered-- would anything, after all, be done? |
2447 | Or precisely WHEN the Roman Pontiff was speaking ex cathedra? |
2447 | Or was it a cause of that feeling, rather than an effect? |
2447 | Or was it because he was not important enough? |
2447 | Or was it his valiant disregard of common custom and those conventional reserves and poor punctilios which are wo nt to hem about the great? |
2447 | Or was it something untameable in his glances and in his gestures? |
2447 | Or was it, perhaps, the mysterious glamour lingering about him, of the antique organisation of Rome? |
2447 | Or was the nineteenth century, after all, not so hostile? |
2447 | Or were they not? |
2447 | Or, on the other hand, was it he who had been supple and yielding? |
2447 | Ought they to be so?'' |
2447 | Perhaps even he intended to go off one of these days, too? |
2447 | Perhaps, even beyond those limits; why not? |
2447 | Rum? |
2447 | Send Zobeir? |
2447 | She did well to be angry; she was deserted in her hour of need; and after all, could she be sure that even the male sex was so impeccable? |
2447 | She had never been in the habit of resting; why should she begin now? |
2447 | She looked about her-- what was left? |
2447 | She was a little taken aback, and said,''What do you mean by"improving"?'' |
2447 | Should they appoint Zobeir, reinforce Sir Gerald Graham, and smash up the Mahdi? |
2447 | Should they reverse that policy? |
2447 | Supposing that the relief expedition arrived, what would be his position? |
2447 | Swept him-- where to? |
2447 | The great question is: Is God enough for you now? |
2447 | The offer had been made; would it be accepted? |
2447 | The position of the English in Egypt itself was still ambiguous; the future was obscure; how long, in reality, would an English army remain in Egypt? |
2447 | The whole matter, no doubt, was Providential-- what other explanation could there be? |
2447 | The whole system of the Army Medical Department, the education of the Medical Officer, the regulations of hospital procedure... REST? |
2447 | There could hardly be any doubt that it WAS Renan; who else could it be? |
2447 | There was a pause; and then,''Do you think you are improving?'' |
2447 | They could not understand it-- what had women to do with war? |
2447 | They said:"Did Wolseley tell you your orders?" |
2447 | Things were not as they had once been: Monsignor Talbot was at Passy, and Pio Nono was-- where? |
2447 | This being, so, the only question remaining to be asked is:''What beings should we then conceive that God would create?'' |
2447 | To oblige them, whether they would or no, to send an army to smash up the Mahdi? |
2447 | To stake his whole future upon General Gordon''s fate? |
2447 | To subject the Bible to free inquiry, to exercise upon it the criticism of the individual judgment-- where might not such methods lead? |
2447 | To threaten resignation? |
2447 | To what remote corner or what enormous stage, to what self- sacrificing drudgeries or what resounding exploits, would the hand of God lead him now? |
2447 | Unto what state of life had it pleased Him to call Charlotte Corday, or Elizabeth of Hungary? |
2447 | WHAT IS to be done?'' |
2447 | Was THAT his duty? |
2447 | Was he not also of the family of the prophet? |
2447 | Was he to improve the character of his pupils by gradually spreading around them an atmosphere of cultivation and intelligence? |
2447 | Was he to let them fall without a blow into the clutches of a sanguinary impostor? |
2447 | Was he to pit his strength against Mr. Gladstone''s? |
2447 | Was it because he was too important for the Holy See to care to interfere with him? |
2447 | Was it conceivable that the strange and weary pilgrimage of so many years should end at length in quietude, if not in happiness, where it had begun? |
2447 | Was it not her duty simply to tend the sick? |
2447 | Was it not known that he might almost be said to have an independent mind? |
2447 | Was it not possible that General Gordon might get into difficulties, that he might be surrounded and cut off from Egypt''? |
2447 | Was it not, therefore, God''s unwritten word? |
2447 | Was it possible that Dr. Newman did not understand that ideas in Rome were, to say the least of it, out of place? |
2447 | Was it possible that all was well at last? |
2447 | Was it possible that, at the last moment, the crowning wreath of victory was to be snatched from her grasp? |
2447 | Was it so? |
2447 | Was it the magnetic vigour of the dead man''s spirit that moved them? |
2447 | Was not one thing, at least, obvious-- that if the English were to conquer and occupy the Sudan, their evacuation of Egypt would become impossible? |
2447 | Was not that the explanation of it all? |
2447 | Was not the Oxford Movement, with its flood of converts, a clear sign of the Divine will? |
2447 | Was not the participation of the Body and Blood of Christ essential to the maintenance of Christian life and hope in each individual? |
2447 | Was she asking of others more than she was giving herself? |
2447 | Was she not in reality merely a nurse? |
2447 | Was the Church of England, or was it not, a part of the Church Catholic? |
2447 | Was the famous Syllabus Errorum, for example, issued ex cathedra or not? |
2447 | Was the movement in the Press during that second week of January a genuine movement, expressing a spontaneous wave of popular feeling? |
2447 | Was there even one?'' |
2447 | Were Timothy and Titus Bishops? |
2447 | Were there five? |
2447 | Were there no other Christian heroes in the world? |
2447 | Were there ten? |
2447 | Were they not rich, well- connected, and endowed with an infinite capacity for making speeches? |
2447 | Were they to allow the Egyptians to become more and more deeply involved in a ruinous, perhaps ultimately a fatal, war with the Mahdi? |
2447 | Were they, or were they not, members of the Church of Christ? |
2447 | What did Pio Nono say? |
2447 | What had happened? |
2447 | What had he accomplished? |
2447 | What had he to look back upon? |
2447 | What had he to look forward to? |
2447 | What human faculty was capable of deciding upon such enormous questions? |
2447 | What is he sent to school for?... |
2447 | What is to be done? |
2447 | What is to become of me?'' |
2447 | What mysterious mixture of remorse, rage, and jealousy? |
2447 | What other nation on the face of the earth could have produced Mr. Gladstone and Sir Evelyn Baring and Lord Hartington and General Gordon? |
2447 | What possible objection could there be to such a scheme? |
2447 | What shall I do?'' |
2447 | What should he do next? |
2447 | What strange ironic prescience had led Prince Albert, in the simplicity of his heart, to choose that motto for the Crimean brooch? |
2447 | What was Sir Evelyn Baring to do? |
2447 | What was it? |
2447 | What was it? |
2447 | What was that secret voice in her ear, if it was not a call? |
2447 | What was the Will of God? |
2447 | What was there desirable in such a thing as that? |
2447 | What was to be done? |
2447 | What were they to do? |
2447 | What would be the end of it all? |
2447 | What, then, was the meaning of''rightly''? |
2447 | What, then, was the truth? |
2447 | When he received, for instance, a letter such as the following from an agitated lady, what was he to say? |
2447 | When she spoke, they were obliged to listen; and, when they had once begun to do that-- what might not follow? |
2447 | Where was Newman five years ago?'' |
2447 | Where were they to go? |
2447 | Who could doubt it? |
2447 | Who could face that? |
2447 | Who could say that they would not end in Socinianism?--nay, in Atheism itself? |
2447 | Who had bothered with such trifles in the Peninsula? |
2447 | Who was he that he should dare to imagine that he could impose his will upon Mr. Gladstone? |
2447 | Who was it that was ultimately responsible for sending General Gordon to Khartoum? |
2447 | Who was to decide what was or was not a matter of faith or morals? |
2447 | Why 318? |
2447 | Why are they so? |
2447 | Why did not the man come back? |
2447 | Why does he not put all his guns on the river and stop the route? |
2447 | Why had he ever known Miss Nightingale? |
2447 | Why on earth does he not guard his roads better? |
2447 | Why should not public prayers be offered up for General Gordon in every church in the kingdom? |
2447 | Why should there be anything better in store for Manning? |
2447 | Why was even her vision of heaven itself filled with suffering patients to whom she was being useful? |
2447 | Why, then, should she spare others? |
2447 | Why, therefore, should the Pope, within his sphere-- the sphere of the Catholic Church-- be denied a similar infallibility? |
2447 | Why? |
2447 | Will you go and do it?" |
2447 | Would he, knowing what he did of her religious views, come to London and administer to her the Holy Sacrament? |
2447 | Yet how was Newman himself to suggest this? |
2447 | Yet it was not so before Dr. Arnold; will it always be so after him? |
2447 | Yet, in spite of all, in spite of these exasperations of the flesh, these agitations of the spirit, what was there to regret? |
2447 | You may say,"But do you mean that He will give us the very thing?" |
2447 | he exclaimed, is the same chalice made use of by everyone?'' |
2447 | in which were propounded the questions"Are not ruins recognised and felt to be more beautiful than perfect structures? |
5406 | And what,said I,"will your minister say to your going to worship in a cathedral? |
5406 | Are you an Anglican? |
5406 | Beyond this village I can not go to- night-- do you want me to go out and sleep under a hedge? |
5406 | Branscomb-- are you going there? 5406 But who was he?" |
5406 | Did you ever see a cowslip ball, Lizzie? |
5406 | Do you call this a cottage? |
5406 | Do you see them trees? |
5406 | Have you never had anything stolen? |
5406 | How long has the custom existed? |
5406 | I suppose,he said, before getting on his bicycle,"there''s nothing beside the cathedral and Stonehenge to see in Wiltshire?" |
5406 | Oh,she cried, and it was a cry of pain,"was I once as beautiful as that?" |
5406 | What am I to do, then? |
5406 | What are you shouting about? |
5406 | Why? |
5406 | A costlier work it would be hard to find; I wonder how many of us have seen it? |
5406 | And I was going there-- would I, could I, be so heartless as to refuse to take him? |
5406 | And at last the girl, to break the uncomfortable silence, said,"Where shall we hang it, mother?" |
5406 | And what at last did I see with my physical eyes? |
5406 | But of this story what corroboration is there, and what do the books say? |
5406 | But the people who had possessed the land before these emigrants-- what of them? |
5406 | But there was his family name to go by-- Dyson; did any one remember a farmer Dyson in the village? |
5406 | But what and who was he, and what connection had he with Bath? |
5406 | But what did he mean by my politics? |
5406 | But what race? |
5406 | But-- the weather was keeping very bad: was there ever known such a June as this of 1907? |
5406 | Could it be that all that mental picture, with the details that seemed so true to life, was purely imaginary? |
5406 | Did it go out like the glow- worm''s lamp, the life and sweetness of the flower? |
5406 | For who does not make a little inward moan, an Eve''s Lamentation, an unworded,"Must I leave thee, Paradise?" |
5406 | He would make no inquiries; he would find his home for himself; how could he fail to recognize it? |
5406 | How big was it? |
5406 | How did these same"few old stones"strike me on a first visit? |
5406 | How did they do it? |
5406 | I asked him; was it as big as an ostrich? |
5406 | I like better the old Spanish poet who says,"What of Rome; its world- conquering power, and majesty and glory-- what has it come to?" |
5406 | If not How can it be that she doth cast her lot Now there, now here, pursuing summer everywhere? |
5406 | Is it alive to- day? |
5406 | Is she very poor?" |
5406 | Leaving all that, let us ask what remains to us of another generation of all she was and did? |
5406 | Next day it was the same, and the next, and the day after that; then I inquired about it-- Was there a dog in that house or not? |
5406 | On the other hand, who ever saw a carrion- crow with crimson eyes? |
5406 | The swallow, swiftly flying here and there, Can it be true that dreary household care Doth goad her to incessant flight? |
5406 | To be sure I labour most assiduously to destroy a system of distress and misery; but is that any reason why a Lord should dislike my politics? |
5406 | Well, I had to sleep somewhere, I told her: could n''t she direct me to a cottage where I could get a bed? |
5406 | What do judges of literature say of it now? |
5406 | What was Branscombe to her, I returned with indifference; and what did it matter what any stranger thought of it? |
5406 | Why could I not have been satisfied for once with a cup of coffee with my lunch? |
5406 | Why then, I asked, not go back on another morning, when I would have the whole place to myself? |
5406 | Why, I asked myself, am I not a poet, or verse- maker, so as to say my farewell in numbers? |
5406 | Yet who would blame him? |
5406 | You have probably heard of Lady Y--?" |
5406 | You knew it then-- where was it?" |
5406 | on quitting any such sweet restful spot, however brief his stay in it may have been? |
5406 | or"Morning, Jack,"or"Where be going, Jack?" |
5406 | why art thou so high, When the slight covering of her neck slips by, Then half revealing to the eager sight Her full, ripe bosom, exquisitely white? |
6910 | But why do n''t you like me, my boy? |
6910 | My prevailing feeling is, What am I that such happiness should be mine? 6910 Why do all the gentlemen take off their hats to me and not to my sister Feodora?" |
6910 | ''A cat may look at a king,''it is said; but how about looking at the Queen? |
6910 | Above all, how would this royal girl, on whose conduct so much depended, demean herself on this crucial occasion? |
6910 | After I had painted for some time, she said,"May I look?" |
6910 | And the hand which he portrayed? |
6910 | Did the pictures serve as illustrations to the history lessons? |
6910 | George II., in his old age? |
6910 | How the small dauntless applicant wiled his father''s master, great Louis''s rival, into playing at horses in the corridor? |
6910 | In reply to the question,"Who giveth this woman to be married to this man?" |
6910 | Is this England? |
6910 | It is the first of instruments; the only instrument for expressing one''s feelings''( I thought, are they not good feelings that the organ expresses? |
6910 | Jamie Forrest, are ye waukin''yet? |
6910 | Johnnie Cope, are ye waukin''yet? |
6910 | Or are your bailies snorin''yet? |
6910 | Or are your drums a- beatin''yet? |
6910 | Or that sadder story of another less fortunate boy, poor heavy- headed William of Gloucester? |
6910 | She had dwelt at Windsor before as a cherished guest; but what must it not have been to her to enter these gates as the Queen? |
6910 | She then asked whence it came; and what do you think I said? |
6910 | Should he be permitted to soil-- were it but in thought-- the lily of whose stainlessness the nation was so proud? |
6910 | The Princess touched her and said,''No, Lehzen, twice, do n''t you remember?'' |
6910 | The favourite was"The wee, wee German Lairdie,"and began in this fashion:-- Wha the Diel hae we gotten for a King, But a wee, wee German Lairdie? |
6910 | The sick girl cried, and asked if this act was not beautiful? |
6910 | This a Christian land-- a land of freedom?" |
6910 | What do you think? |
6910 | What was there to hinder King Leopold from following out the comparison? |
6910 | What were the police thinking of? |
6910 | Who would not hurry to meet and greet her, to give her the warmest reception? |
6910 | or William, worn out in his prime? |
6910 | or it may be heavy, pacific George of Denmark, raised to the kingly rank by the courtesy of vague tradition? |
6910 | what meaning can it have? |
48522 | Ai n''t there enough in the kettle, master? |
48522 | Any men- servants? |
48522 | But where be Mistress Chowne? |
48522 | But where be the wife? |
48522 | But why did the packmen travel together, Caleb? |
48522 | But why not, master? |
48522 | Church or chapel, ma''am, did you ask? 48522 Dear Mr. M--, will you not_ really_ want something further? |
48522 | Do I know how to cook_ entrées_? 48522 Do n''t allow but alternate Sunday evenings out? |
48522 | Do''y ask it as a personal favour, my lord? |
48522 | Early riser? 48522 Have n''t''ee been married then?" |
48522 | How many in family? |
48522 | Is there a kitchen- maid kept? |
48522 | Married or single? |
48522 | Miss Wildbrough,said he,"are you ill? |
48522 | No carts or waggons, then? |
48522 | Not for asses, Caleb? |
48522 | Of what does your family consist? |
48522 | The full moon was shining, do you say? |
48522 | Then hardly jolly times for packmen? |
48522 | They could not stop you? |
48522 | Well, young shaver,said Ralph,"what are you staying here for?" |
48522 | What are you about? 48522 What wages?" |
48522 | Where be you a- going to to- day? |
48522 | Where''s Joe? 48522 Work is it you want? |

48522 | You want a character, ma''am? 48522 & c. The landlords cry, What shall we do? 48522 A worthy old servant, who had been with my grandfather, then my father, then with me, and-- who knows? 48522 And Goldsmith''s Vicar of Wakefield-- was ever a purer, sweeter type of man delineated? 48522 And every branch so fair and clean? 48522 Are art, beauty, pleasure to the spectators to be left out of count altogether? 48522 At last she asked of this tree How came this freshness unto thee? 48522 But did not my keepers stop your coming up this way? |

48522 | Chowne turned his head over his shoulder and asked,"Mrs. Chowne, be you satisfied or be you not? |

48522 | Does the reader remember the charming account of the servants in the household of Sir Roger de Coverly? |
48522 | Does the reader remember the time when all such goods were brought by carriers? |
48522 | Have they not bequeathed the latter to their successors, and carried away their merits with them into a better world? |
48522 | How are we to account for this amazing extinction? |
48522 | How can we sit in the beautiful halls and panelled boudoirs of the old people, and not be thankful to them for having made them so charming? |
48522 | How can we walk in the avenues they planted, pick the flowering shrubs they grouped and bedded, and not be grateful to them? |

48522 | Is the old"good and faithful servant"a thing of the past? |
48522 | Lady X--, one day coming over, said to him,"Will you come back in my carriage with me, and dine at the Park? |
48522 | Look''y here,"--he put his white head near me and raised the hair,--"do''y see now how my head be a cut about? |
48522 | No doubt that the results were good in one way-- but where is a good unmixed? |
48522 | Now who would even think of a servant when such a question is asked? |
48522 | Now-- is there in these ideas anything more than a fancy, a delusion, a superstition? |

48522 | Presently a man came along the side and halted, and called to the fellow in danger,"I say, be you a Peter Tavy or a Mary Tavy man?" |
48522 | Should she go to Bath, and spend the remainder of her days at cards, amusing herself? |
48522 | So I stood up to go, and then one chap, he said to me,''Got to the end o''your zongs, old man?'' |
48522 | Such conduct would be regarded as highly indecorous now; but was there harm in it? |

48522 | Who is the painter? |
48522 | Who that is over fifty does not remember them? |
48522 | Who would not live the life of the jolly waggoner? |
48522 | Why are you trespassing?" |
48522 | Why should we imitate wild nature? |
48522 | [ Illustration] I wonder whether the day will ever dawn on England when our country houses will be as deserted as are those in France and Germany? |
48522 | [ Illustration] Why not? |
48522 | _ Duke''s serv._ Well, Baronet, and where have you been? |
48522 | or should she devote it to a country life, and to repairing the shattered fortunes of the family? |
48522 | said he to the clerk,"however comes this about-- are there only boys born in this place?" |
48522 | that he should lead and direct their music? |

45131 | ''Do n''t you think Bradlaugh was harshly treated?'' 45131 Did you see his boots, Hypatia?" |
45131 | Do n''t you think it would be better to do so? |
45131 | Does the House,he asked,"mean that it is a party to each oath taken? |
45131 | Have you anything to say in mitigation? |
45131 | Have you consulted any one about it? |
45131 | Hunter will do it, you say?... 45131 One existence,"Mr Vaughan thought, must mean"supreme existence;"failing that, counsel asked was it"mere actual physical existence"? |
45131 | Outlaw or citizen? |
45131 | That was a detective, and those who instructed him evidently think that''Man, whence and how?'' 45131 What can I do for you?" |
45131 | When? |
45131 | You wish me to go away? |
45131 | [ 81][ Footnote 81: Pamphlet,Is there a God?" |
45131 | ''Well, my good woman, what is it?'' |
45131 | ( 2) Was he sitting to prepare notes for use in addressing Bradlaugh? |
45131 | ( 3) Had he resumed his seat to let Bradlaugh swear? |
45131 | ( 4) Was Bradlaugh then without belief in a Supreme Being? |
45131 | ( 5) Was he a person on whose conscience an oath,_ as an oath_, had no binding force? |
45131 | ( 6) Had the House full cognisance of these matters through Bradlaugh''s avowal? |
45131 | ( 7) Did he take the oath according to Parliamentary practice? |
45131 | ( 8) Generally, did he take and subscribe the oath? |
45131 | A little later, in thinking it all over, he asked,"You think I can quite rely upon Hunter doing it?" |
45131 | A series of serenely trenchant papers on the question"Are the Hebrew Scriptures Impregnable?" |
45131 | AN UNIMPORTANT CHAPTER 30 Side lights--"Man, whence and how?" |
45131 | All these phases are closed to them; and why? |
45131 | Among other things he wrote a weighty little pamphlet:"The Channel Tunnel: Ought the Democracy to Oppose or Support it?" |
45131 | And who pays the rest? |
45131 | And why? |
45131 | And, as my father further asked,"Why did Alderman Ellis direct the prosecution?" |
45131 | Another reference to Bradlaugh''s conscience brought out the cry,"What is its value?" |
45131 | Are members, whose conduct may be obnoxious, to vote my exclusion because to them my opinions are obnoxious?" |
45131 | Are the people poor? |
45131 | Are they aware that there are many in this House who regard these words as a blasphemous form? |
45131 | Asked:"Do you draw any distinction between the binding effect upon your conscience of the assertory oath, as it is called, and the promissory oath?" |
45131 | But does the House mean it is a party now? |
45131 | But how is this feeling to be tested? |
45131 | But how were they going to apply it? |
45131 | But is that a reason-- that because I stand alone, the House are to do against me what they would not do if I had 100,000 men at my back? |
45131 | But would they? |
45131 | Did he ever sit among those who have promoted those relaxations? |
45131 | Did the House join in it? |
45131 | Do they mean to you:''May God desert and forsake me as I deserted and forsook the Queen''s supremacy, to which I so solemnly swore allegiance''? |
45131 | Do you do either? |
45131 | Do you suppose that in times past the Founder of Christianity has required an oath in this House to defend the religion which He founded? |
45131 | Formally, there went to the jury eight questions, to this effect:( 1) Was the Speaker sitting when Bradlaugh took the oath on 11th February? |
45131 | Have you any such fear? |
45131 | Have you no personal shame that you have broken your oath? |
45131 | He wrote a stirring article asking,"Why should the people of England pay £ 4,000,000 to the Viceroy of Egypt?" |
45131 | His doctrine is that the universe and its total energy must be conceived as infinite and eternal; that in physics the question"Why?" |
45131 | How do you understand them of your broken oath? |
45131 | I asked if he was going to the House? |
45131 | If opinions, why not conduct? |
45131 | If so, why do the city authorities pay even £ 700 towards the costs? |
45131 | If the House did not join in it, why did you cheer so that the words of the oath were drowned? |
45131 | If, he asked, they set up the principle of a creed test, where were they going to end? |
45131 | In the autumn of 1878 Mr Bradlaugh determined to take one of Professor Flint''s lectures,"Is belief in God reasonable?" |
45131 | Is it the oath alone which stirs you? |
45131 | Is that not some proof that I have honour and conscience?" |
45131 | Is there not some proof to the contrary in the fact that I did not go through the form, believing that there was another right open to me? |
45131 | It dealt with the question raised by Mr Chamberlain,"Is a National Party possible?" |
45131 | Knowing how he ordinarily shrank from any outward display of his feelings, and especially how much he disliked mere form, I said,"Why, how is this? |
45131 | Mr A. M. Sullivan, another Catholic, made a rabid speech, supporting the cause of religion with the plea,"Where was the class that was oppressed now? |
45131 | Mr Hyndman chose to debate with him on the issue,"Will Socialism benefit the English People?" |
45131 | None in the rash taking or the wilful breaking? |
45131 | On the question of dignity, raised by Mr Clarke, he asked:"Do you mean that I can injure the dignity of this House? |
45131 | Only when it is asked,"Can we evolve up to Socialism?" |
45131 | Or do the pride and pomp of your ecclesiastical position outbribe your conscience? |
45131 | That''s what my religion has done for me: what has your way of thinking done for you?'' |
45131 | The mean insult of a"Hear, hear"when he asked,"Do you tell me I am unfit to sit amongst you?" |
45131 | The most direct thrust in the speech is perhaps the following:--"What will you inquire into? |
45131 | The question discussed was,"Can miracles be proved possible?" |
45131 | The subject agreed upon, and worded by Mr Westerby, was,"Has, or is, man a soul?" |
45131 | The subject selected for discussion was,"Is it reasonable to worship God?" |
45131 | They are:( 1) Socialism; For and Against: written debate with Mrs Besant, 1887;( 2) Will Socialism benefit the English People? |
45131 | This seems to have astonished Bradlaugh, for he arose, and as he went out of the room, he said,''What the devil is to be done with that man? |
45131 | Was it a party the session before last? |
45131 | Was the Archdeacon of Chichester ambitious of the Cardinal''s hat that he became so readily forsworn?" |
45131 | Was the House a party when John Stuart Mill sat in this House?" |
45131 | Was the Rector of Lavington and Graffham covetous of an archbishopric that he broke his oath? |
45131 | Was the State to undertake the emigration? |
45131 | We have seen and heard enough of those falsely imputed: what was his real share of human infirmity? |
45131 | Were the people to be sent away by force, and to what lands were they to go? |
45131 | What do we mean by"why,"apart from matters of volition? |
45131 | What is meant by a"complete philosophy of the human mind"? |
45131 | What is"explanation"? |
45131 | What then were his faults? |
45131 | Where are our statesmen--_our clergy_? |
45131 | Whom do you seek to admit? |
45131 | Why have you pulled all the blinds down?" |
45131 | Why not examine into members''conduct when they come to the table, and see if there be no members in whose way you can put a barrier? |
45131 | Will you inquire into my conduct, or is it only my opinions you will try here? |
45131 | Would it not be better to do away with the member''s oath altogether, and make the affirmation general?" |
45131 | Would they next question members known to be unbelievers, though not publicly professed ones? |

41785 | who was alternatively the Ypre of Ypres Hall and Upwell by Abchurch? |
6756 | A_ nice_ person,he replied;"what does that mean? |
6756 | Does the light hurt your grace''s eyes? |
6756 | I am this, I am that; who ever talked such empty stuff formerly? |
6756 | What are you saying of me, Charles? |
6756 | What did you give for it? |
6756 | Why do you not paint your own designs for the House on your own foundation, and exhibit them? |
6756 | Will you take it? |
6756 | ''Could any one--_could my own hand even have averted what has happened_?'' |
6756 | ''Did Wordsworth repeat any other poetry than his own?'' |
6756 | ''Do n''t you know,''retorted Lady Hester,''that Mr. Pitt sometimes uses very slight and weak instruments wherewith to effect his ends?'' |
6756 | ''Is Nottingham far intil England, sir?'' |
6756 | ''Now, reader,''writes the delighted recipient,''was not this glorious? |

6756 | ''What became now of all the sneers at my senseless insanity about the Marbles? |
6756 | ''What is Southey''s manner of life?'' |
6756 | ''What,''asks Lady Morgan in her fragment of autobiography,''what has a woman to do with dates? |
6756 | ''Who are these three brothers and sisters, the Howitts, sir?'' |
6756 | And dost thou remember our first reading of_ Lalla Rookh_? |
6756 | And then that way of thrusting his hands into his pockets, and sticking out his legs as far as he could-- what is that like? |
6756 | And what does the reader think her ladyship did? |
6756 | But if to have dropped it so, dust to dust, would have saved a living man-- what then?... |
6756 | But where is there a picture without shade?'' |
6756 | Dared she have done this if you had been by? |
6756 | Did ever a witch burnt for sorcery produce its equal?'' |
6756 | Did ever woman move in a brighter sphere than I do? |
6756 | Dost thou remember the days when Byron''s poems first came out, now one and then another, at sufficient intervals to allow of digesting them? |
6756 | Have I not reason to feel that in thus writing I was fulfilling a duty?'' |
6756 | He is evidently a little piqued by Sydney''s admiration of Moore, for in a letter to Mr. Owenson he asks,''Who is the Mr. Moore Sydney mentions? |
6756 | Her blunders were proverbial, as when she asked in all simplicity,''Who was Jeremy Taylor?'' |
6756 | His lady said,"But, my dear, where am I to put my piano?" |
6756 | How was I to build a heroic form like life, yet above life?'' |
6756 | I love to see the sitters look as if they thought,"Can this be Haydon''s-- the great Haydon''s painting?" |
6756 | I see in your face that you are a thorough epicure; how will you endure to spend a week with me?'' |
6756 | If that be not happiness, what is?'' |
6756 | In the midst of their joy and amazement at the news that they had a brother, the little girls asked each other anxiously:''Will our parents like it?'' |
6756 | Is not that odd? |
6756 | Lady Blessington, do you know grammar? |
6756 | Oh, here he is; what, you know each other already? |
6756 | Ought I, after such efforts as I had made, to have been left in this position by the Directors of the British Gallery or the Government?'' |
6756 | Shall I, Lady Blessington?"'' |
6756 | Shall I, Smith? |
6756 | She said to me,"What are we to do, my dear?" |
6756 | Was nature wrong, he asked himself, or the antique? |
6756 | What do you mean by beautifully? |
6756 | What does nice mean? |
6756 | What of all this has the English dandy to offer? |
6756 | What''s he to do here? |
6756 | When I came out into the sunshine I said to myself,"Why, what is all this driving about?" |
6756 | When you write to Lady Morgan, will you thank her for her handsome speeches in her book about_ my_ books? |

9822 | Can you not guess the writer? |
9822 | Has he? |
9822 | I hope that I shall not forfeit your good opinion,said he;"but--""But what, my lord?" |
9822 | No,he replied;"pray who is she?" |
9822 | Say, ye severest...... what would you have done? |
9822 | Tom will die in a gaol; and what is to become of you? |
9822 | What would you have me do? 9822 When with thee, what ills could harm me? |
9822 | Where did he make them, at St. James''s, or here? |
9822 | Who commands the upper story? |
9822 | Will you see her? |
9822 | You will say,''Why trouble me with all this?'' 9822 ''Now tell me,''said the doctor,''whether, if you had a wife or a daughter, you would wish them to be your disciples? 9822 A glitt''ring shade, an empty name, An air- born vision''s vap''rish flame? 9822 But whither am I wandering? 9822 By his conduct he proves that he does not love you; why then labour to support him? |
9822 | Do not our hearts sink? |
9822 | Does not that recall the present policy? |
9822 | Had I ever heard such a sigh from a husband''s bosom? |
9822 | Had Pitt seen him? |
9822 | How have I been treated? |
9822 | How old is the girl you have chosen?" |
9822 | How, then, can it be possible that we should resign, without a severe pang, the first of all human blessings, the friend we love? |
9822 | Indeed, how could a young man, well educated,[18] subsist in such a metropolis without some provision? |
9822 | Is it within its consecrated precincts that this heart shall shortly moulder? |
9822 | Mr. Robinson having once more obtained his liberty, how were we to subsist honourably and above reproach? |
9822 | One day, complaining to Dudley North that he was a prey to rheumatism,"Pray,"cried North,"did your Grace ever try a clean shirt?" |
9822 | Robinson?" |
9822 | Shall I offer him his liberty on condition that he allows you to separate yourself from him? |
9822 | Shall I propose to Mr. Robinson to let you go? |
9822 | Soon afterward a gentleman said to him,"Pray, my lord, do you know with whom you have been dancing?" |
9822 | The owner, in his apron and sleeves, stoutly refused his vote, except on one condition,--"Would her Grace give him a kiss?" |
9822 | What business have beggars to marry?" |
9822 | What is to become of you in a prison? |
9822 | Where was I to go? |
9822 | Why does my pen seem suddenly arrested while I write the word? |
9822 | Will those scenes, we thought, ever recur? |
9822 | [ 37]"Well, my lord, and what does this mean?" |
9822 | am I doomed to find Thou art a phantom of the mind? |
9822 | and what do you want?" |
9822 | said Mr. Harris,"and what do you mean to do with your child?" |
9822 | so you have escaped from a prison, and now you are come here to do penance for your follies? |
9822 | why to me Come unregarded, undelighting still This ever- mourning bosom? |
35894 | But did not the United States crush the Confederates when secession was demanded? |
35894 | But,some will answer,"is it right that we should be deluged with foreign paupers, who come upon our rates without paying a penny towards them?" |
35894 | Good for the unemployedmay be replied, but who would have to pay for the additional labour? |
35894 | What,it may be asked,"is local option, or county councils, or''three acres and a cow''to me? |
35894 | Why ca n''t you let things alone? |
35894 | _ Can_ the Church be disestablished? |
35894 | 25 V. WHY NOT HAVE A"NATIONAL"PARTY? |
35894 | ARE LIBERALS AND RADICALS AGREED? |
35894 | After this recital of Liberal deeds, it may fairly be asked,"What are Liberal principles?" |
35894 | And as for the"profit- monger,"is not the workman who is better off than the poorest among his fellows deserving the name? |
35894 | And has England ceased to be Christian because Baron de Worms is sitting on one side of the Speaker and Mr. Bradlaugh on the other? |
35894 | And is the danger which lurks beneath it imaginary? |
35894 | And then comes a question which many will deem of all- importance--"How is the Church to exist afterwards?" |
35894 | And what would become of the poor, the weak, and the helpless if the State stood aside from all interference with the affairs of men? |
35894 | And where would science be if we still swore by the skill of the alchemists? |
35894 | And with what result? |
35894 | And, further, if it were practicable, would it be just? |
35894 | And, to put it on the most sordid ground, where would England and English trade have been had such a principle been acted upon by other countries? |
35894 | Are our Government departments such models of efficiency and economy that such a belief can be entertained for a moment? |
35894 | Are they all to be included in the eight hours''proposal? |
35894 | As for rabble, who have nothing but personal property, what hold has the nation of them? |
35894 | Because we no longer suffer from the Plague, the Sweating Sickness, and the Black Death, do the doctors sit with folded arms? |
35894 | Because we travel faster than our fathers, do we frown upon all improvements in locomotion? |
35894 | But are we, therefore, to do no more? |
35894 | But as all questions covered by the phrase can not be put in the simple form"Shall we go to war?" |
35894 | But does the illustration hold good whether applied to such a limited area as a county or to the country at large? |
35894 | But has the suffrage really been extended to every householder? |
35894 | But in what department of human affairs_ is_ perfection possible? |
35894 | But is even that an unmixed evil? |
35894 | But who is to define how far a reactionary may go without being considered"extreme,"and who in the English Parliament is"an anarchist"? |
35894 | But why should not the process be carried further, and the affairs of the country be settled by day instead of by night? |
35894 | But, it is sometimes asked, where are the old philosophical Radicals-- men of the stamp of Bentham, and Grote, and James Mill? |
35894 | DO THE LAND LAWS NEED REFORM? |
35894 | Did not Englishmen aid, both by men and money, in liberating Greece and uniting Italy? |
35894 | Did they not even raise a fund to assist the slave- holding States when in rebellion? |
35894 | Do we not all know the idle worthless son of good and hard- working parents, a curse to his own and to all with whom he comes in contact? |
35894 | Does it not equally argue freedom from principle? |
35894 | Does it not rather prove that those who adopted it, like mortal men everywhere and in all ages, were fallible? |
35894 | For what is the first question that naturally arises? |
35894 | Granting they form an extreme exception, how are we to deal with shopkeepers and all whom they employ? |
35894 | HOW FAR SHOULD THE STATE INTERFERE? |
35894 | HOW IS LOCAL OPTION TO BE EFFECTED? |
35894 | HOW IS TAXATION TO BE REDUCED? |
35894 | HOW IS THE LIBERAL PROGRAMME TO BE ATTAINED? |
35894 | HOW OUGHT WE TO BE TAXED? |
35894 | HOW OUGHT WE TO DEAL WITH SOCIALISM? |
35894 | HOW SHOULD LOCAL SELF- GOVERNMENT BE EXTENDED? |
35894 | HOW SHOULD WE DEAL WITH THE COLONIES? |
35894 | HOW SHOULD WE GUIDE OUR FOREIGN POLICY? |
35894 | Has not the same argument been used against religion; and is it not one of the poorest in the whole armoury of controversy? |
35894 | He had already done much, but he wished to do more, and on being asked by his opponents,"Where will you stop?" |
35894 | How are we taxed? |
35894 | How could anything be gained in politics without agitation? |
35894 | How ought we to be taxed? |
35894 | I.--WHAT IS THE USE OF A VOTE? |
35894 | II.--IS THERE ANYTHING PRACTICAL IN POLITICS? |
35894 | III.--WHY NOT LET THINGS ALONE? |
35894 | IS A PEACE POLICY PRACTICABLE? |
35894 | IS FOREIGN LABOUR TO BE EXCLUDED? |
35894 | IS FREE TRADE TO BE PERMANENT? |
35894 | IS ONE PARTY BETTER THAN THE OTHER? |
35894 | IS OUR ELECTORAL SYSTEM COMPLETE? |
35894 | IS PERFECTION IN POLITICS POSSIBLE? |
35894 | IS THE HOUSE OF COMMONS PERFECT? |
35894 | IS THERE ANYTHING PRACTICAL IN POLITICS? |
35894 | IV.--OUGHT ONE TO BE A PARTISAN? |
35894 | IX.--WHAT ARE THE LIBERALS DOING? |
35894 | If any such proposal is to be made, how is it to be carried out? |
35894 | If every honest man abstained from politics, with what right could he complain that all politicians were rogues? |
35894 | If he did that, there would be needed no further answer to the question,"How is the Liberal Programme to be attained?" |
35894 | If the answer is"The working classes,"the further question is"How are these to be defined?" |
35894 | If they have not, what further measure could be taken? |
35894 | In none did we do so, and who to- day will argue that abstention was wrong? |
35894 | Is any further proof required that, if Parliament chooses, the latter can at any moment be severed from the State? |
35894 | Is he certain those reasons cover the whole case? |
35894 | Is it altogether such an unfair thing that we should, as in the United States, tax all incomes according to their amount?... |
35894 | Is it any wonder that Irish agitation should have become revolutionary when that is the only kind we have rewarded? |
35894 | Is it any wonder, then, that the demand should be growing for a graduated Income Tax? |
35894 | Is it in medicine? |
35894 | Is it in religion? |
35894 | Is it in science? |
35894 | Is it not an admitted fact that it was by royal ordinance such an impost was first levied, and by force of law that it has since been maintained? |
35894 | Is it true that the system of free imports has ruined agriculture and crippled manufactures? |
35894 | Is not experience all the other way? |
35894 | Is not that of Ireland in particular a striking testimony to the wisdom of substituting the voluntary system for State support? |
35894 | Is not this a technical rather than a real argument? |
35894 | Is that plot to be seized by the State without payment? |
35894 | Is this man''s £1000 a year to be mulcted in the same amount with £1000 a year derived from a real property capital of £25,000? |
35894 | It certainly shows that in certain instances men do not come up to their ideal, but does that prove the ideal to be wrong? |
35894 | It is vague; it is high- sounding; but what does it mean? |
35894 | It was dishonourable, unpatriotic, and pusillanimous; but Mr. Gladstone persevered, and with what result? |
35894 | Many would be surprised if told that there remained serious deficiencies in our electoral system; and would ask,"How can that be? |
35894 | My answer, therefore, to the question,"How is Local Option to be worked?" |
35894 | Nominally that tax is four shillings in the pound on the full annual value, but actually what does it stand at? |
35894 | OUGHT EDUCATION TO BE FREE? |
35894 | OUGHT LEASEHOLDS TO BE ENFRANCHISED? |
35894 | OUGHT ONE TO BE A PARTISAN? |
35894 | OUGHT THE STATE TO FIND FOOD AND WORK FOR ALL? |
35894 | Of a drastic change in the land or the game laws from a party propped up by landlords and game preservers? |
35894 | Of a popular veto upon licensing from a party to which belong nine- tenths of the publicans? |
35894 | Of an improved magistracy from a party deriving great influence from the country squires? |
35894 | Of disestablishment in Scotland and Wales, to say nothing of England, from a party relying for much of its power upon the clergy? |
35894 | Of, in fact, any great reform whatsoever from a party which places"vested interests"in the forefront to the frequent exclusion of justice? |
35894 | Ought we to pass a law prohibiting every foreigner from landing? |
35894 | Owners in other countries do so, and why not here? |
35894 | SHOULD HOME RULE BE GRANTED TO IRELAND? |
35894 | SHOULD THE CHURCH REMAIN ESTABLISHED? |
35894 | SHOULD THE STATE INTERFERE WITH PROPERTY? |
35894 | SHOULD THE STATE REGULATE LABOUR OR WAGES? |
35894 | SHOULD THE STATE SOLVE SOCIAL PROBLEMS? |
35894 | SHOULD WASTE LANDS BE TILLED AND THE GAME LAWS ABOLISHED? |
35894 | So much for the theory: what of the fact? |
35894 | Some may hide behind the question put and answered eighteen centuries ago; may ask, as was then asked,"Who is my neighbour?" |
35894 | Supposing one asked,"Where is the Act establishing the monarchy?" |
35894 | The question,"Would disendowment be just?" |
35894 | The rent is raised because of the success his own faculties have secured, onerous conditions in the way of repairs are imposed, and what can he do? |
35894 | The reply may be made,"But, granting that leases for lives often have cruel results, is not the remedy in the hands of those who want leases? |
35894 | There are many persons, who, though possessing the suffrage, often put the question,"What is the use of a vote?" |
35894 | There being no doubt that, if the people will, the Church can be disestablished, a further question remains,"Ought it to be so dealt with?" |
35894 | There was a time, and that not far distant, when the question"Is the House of Commons perfect?" |
35894 | This is legal, but is it commonly honest? |
35894 | To what thanks are later generations entitled for simply restoring to the Irish the rights of which they had been robbed? |
35894 | V.--WHY NOT HAVE A"NATIONAL"PARTY? |
35894 | VI.--IS ONE PARTY BETTER THAN THE OTHER? |
35894 | VII.--WHAT ARE LIBERAL PRINCIPLES? |
35894 | VIII.--ARE LIBERALS AND RADICALS AGREED? |

35894 | WHOSE SHOULD BE THE UNEARNED INCREMENT? |
35894 | WHY AND HOW ARE WE TAXED? |
35894 | WHY NOT LET THINGS ALONE? |
35894 | WOULD DISENDOWMENT BE JUST? |
35894 | Was not the same thing said when Jews were admitted to Parliament and Atheists claimed admission? |
35894 | We know such a man does not exist, and why should the conditions be changed if the graduation went further than at present? |
35894 | What hope is there of a sound reform of the House of Lords from a party closely wedded to the aristocracy? |
35894 | What of the political, what of the social, what of the moral benefits? |
35894 | What person in his senses would erect a substantial factory or a large concern of any kind upon a comparatively short lease? |
35894 | What reason is there to believe that the Irish would be less able to manage their own affairs than the people of Bulgaria? |
35894 | What sane man would conduct a shop as it was conducted 500 years since? |
35894 | What security for the payment of their taxes? |
35894 | What then is the theory upon which so much may depend? |
35894 | What will be said of war in the time to come? |
35894 | What would this mean? |
35894 | What, then, is it that is asked, and why is it demanded? |
35894 | When it is done, one is entitled to ask what the phrase means? |
35894 | When you require me to take an active part in promoting the measures here indicated, how, I want to know, am I concerned in any one of them?" |
35894 | Where is the proof? |
35894 | Who were Walpole, Pitt, Burke, Fox, Canning, Peel, Cobden, Gladstone, and Disraeli? |
35894 | Why are we taxed? |
35894 | Why do they take those for lives?" |
35894 | Why not to the body of the machine as well as to its principle, why not to the pages of the book as well as to what they contain? |
35894 | Why should brains exercised in one direction be handicapped in comparison with those exercised in another? |
35894 | Why should he not be as fairly paid for his skill and foresight as if he had bought a house on a similar belief? |
35894 | Why should not his power in this direction be limited? |
35894 | Why should not the same principle be applied to income of every sort from land as to income of every sort from wages, profits, or invested capital? |
35894 | Why this difference? |
35894 | Why, then, should bullion be carefully protected and brains despoiled? |
35894 | Why? |
35894 | Would all these gains count as nothing to the Church, considered as a religious body? |
35894 | Would it not be well to first ask what the Irish have had to be grateful for? |
35894 | Would the number of Christians in this country be lessened by a single one if the Church were deprived of State support? |

35894 | would the non- production of that measure prove that it is not a parliamentary monarchy under which we live? |
45752 | Forgotten? 45752 Have you e''er pleas''d your skilful ears With the sweet music of the Spheres? |
45752 | Have you e''er tasted what the Bee Steals from each fragrant flower or tree? 45752 Seest thou a man diligent in his business? |
45752 | Sir,he said,"can a man live in London for eighty years and fail to discern good wine from bad? |
45752 | What became of our Phisitions in this massacre? 45752 What things have not been heard,"said Stow,"at Paul''s Cross? |
45752 | What wonders were there to be found That a clown might enjoy or disdain? 45752 Who hath died?" |

45752 | And why were not the taverns shut? |

45752 | Are the citizens of a republic similarly convinced as regards their President? |

45752 | Are we to understand that it is as easy for a pauper to get into the kingdom of heaven as a prince? |

947 | Well, Hardy,said Nelson,"how goes the day with us?" |
947 | What can this mean? |
947 | What will Nelson think of us? |
947 | Who is that? |
947 | You ask me, my dear friend,he says to Lady Hamilton,"if I am going on more expeditions? |
947 | --"I hope,"said Nelson,"none of our ships have struck?" |
947 | And under what circumstances, and with what pointed aggravation? |

947 | If so, why was not that authority produced? |
947 | Is not his flag shot at every day by the French, and their shot returned from batteries which bear that flag? |
947 | Is not his own flag flying there, and at Malta, not only by his permission, but by his order? |
947 | Is your head- man a good person, and true to our interest? |

947 | The Austrian repeatedly asked, if there was not a risk of losing the squadron? |
947 | The commanding officer of the troops on board one of our ships asked where his men should be stationed? |

45712 | Could I see the house? |
45712 | Did you record it in the Log? |
45712 | Does any one know how that saying originated? |
45712 | Does it not to- day? |
45712 | Good gracious,exclaimed the squire,"do you think I am going to take a chair and sit out- of- doors and look at my house? |

45712 | However do you manage to remember people and their names? |
45712 | I did not ask the way to the church,I responded;"why did you point it out?" |
45712 | I was admiring it too,I said;"do you know anything about it and how it came there?" |
45712 | In what line do you travel? |
45712 | Surely you have made a mistake? |
45712 | Talking of lightning,he went on,"do you know it is a fact that lightning never strikes a moving object?" |
45712 | The next parson,I exclaimed in astonishment;"whatever do you mean? |
45712 | What do you mean? |
45712 | What pond? 45712 What pond?" |
45712 | What reply did you make? |
45712 | What''s in a name? |
45712 | Where be you bound for? |
45712 | Where is his tomb? |
45712 | Which wood? |
45712 | Would you care to come into the garden and see what a fine view I''ve from it? |
45712 | A skeleton only, buried in cement in a coffin, not in a churchyard-- that is surely suggestive of mystery? |
45712 | After all, may it not be that the term"gentle craft"came from the fact of the use of gentles as baits? |
45712 | After this who shall say that old houses have not their romances, recorded or unrecorded? |
45712 | All the servants and the guests were accounted for, and"If the figure were not a ghost, what could it have been?" |
45712 | Are unsought- for"sollicitations to a 2nd marriage"likely to shorten life? |
45712 | As the horseman drew near, what, think you, must have been her feelings when with bowed head he clattered onwards without a sign? |
45712 | As the stone is not now there, has not been there, except in bits, for long years, why do they still mark it on the map? |
45712 | Better this, surely, than to lead an aimless, lazy existence? |
45712 | But another maid, who had overheard the conversation, graciously came up to me and explained:"We''re having an open- air bazaar; will you come to it? |
45712 | But how could the poor porter tell that, if the man looked not the part? |
45712 | But to return to the vestry of Tong church, said the clerk to me,"Have you heard of the Great Bell of Tong?" |
45712 | Could I tell a lie? |
45712 | Do I talk too much of inns? |
45712 | Does not Alonzo of Aragon say that the recommendations of age are"old wood to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read"? |
45712 | Does not even cosmopolitan Kipling pronounce his preference for"Sussex by the sea"over all the world? |
45712 | Does the brass being dateless point to anything? |
45712 | Grieved indeed am I that it should be so, for as a child I dearly loved the merry bickering windmill-- what child does not? |
45712 | Had"The Sheffield Arms"a tale to tell? |
45712 | How came it there, I wonder, and who presented it to that famous highwayman? |
45712 | How came so modest an inn to possess such a beautiful specimen of ancient carving? |
45712 | How came that figure seated there? |
45712 | How did the abbey come by its name? |
45712 | How is a man like that to be dealt with? |
45712 | How many are there, I wonder? |
45712 | How many churchyards boast of having the biggest and oldest yew- tree in the land? |
45712 | How many of those who pass daily close by have discovered that charmed spot, I wonder? |
45712 | How, then, came this big upon little? |
45712 | I am inclined to favour the former view; but when learned antiquaries disagree, how shall a mere layman decide? |
45712 | I could not account for it, unless all its inhabitants were away making holiday, but where were the dogs and the fowls? |
45712 | I knew not their names, but what mattered that? |
45712 | I should like to unearth the story of the"Feathers,"for it looks like an inn with a storied past, else why those stately chambers? |
45712 | I was neither hungry nor thirsty, so what need had I of an inn? |
45712 | I will wager that no one grew prematurely old from overwork in it: why should he? |
45712 | I wonder how many extra pennies good folk were induced to part with for the glory of being in the latter category? |
45712 | I wonder how the medieval carver got his inspiration? |
45712 | I wonder if either one is true? |
45712 | I wonder whether our descendants in the far future will ever look back longingly and lovingly to"the good old motoring days"? |
45712 | I wonder who he could have been? |
45712 | If an inn you rest at has only a pleasant garden to moon in, what matters the town? |
45712 | If not, what was it? |
45712 | If"the finest landscape is improved by a good hotel in the foreground,"how much the more so in comparison is a commonplace town? |
45712 | Is it not recorded that Cromwell once exclaimed to his troopers whilst crossing a river,"Trust in God,"followed quickly by"but keep your powder dry"? |
45712 | Is supper ready?... |
45712 | Is there not an old saying that at"Stow- on- the- Wold, the wind always blows cold"? |
45712 | It balances itself naturally enough, but what tossed it up? |
45712 | Need more be said? |
45712 | Not but that Pure water is the best of gifts That man to man can bring; But what am I that I should have The best of everything? |
45712 | Now if a philosopher can act so, how is an ordinary mortal to be blamed for the same failing to be responsive? |
45712 | Now what is ten minutes to twenty years''long study?" |
45712 | Pleasant surroundings surely, to a certain extent, influence the temperament of man? |
45712 | Quite a plausible explanation it seems to me; then wherefore seek for a more improbable one? |
45712 | Small wonder that a little girl who had been reading similar eulogies asked her father,"Where are all the bad people buried?" |
45712 | So I put myself under his guidance, for who should take a more intelligent interest in, or know more about, a church than its parson? |
45712 | Some shouted to us,"Why do n''t you blow your horn?" |

699 | The King said was she a large woman, because he must have a fat wife? |
699 | The question now was, what to do with her? |
699 | Then, said those noblemen, would they love and serve young Edward? |
699 | They asked her once again that day, after she was speechless, whether she was still in the same mind? |

44021 | The difficulty is caused by the statement as to the oaths of the sheriff, the tenants- in- chief(_ barones_), and their foreign(? |
44021 | The first point to be considered is this: What was the information which the tenants- in- chief were called upon to supply in these returns? |
44021 | The question may very fairly be asked,''What check had the crown upon a tenant in the event of the latter omitting some of his"excess"fees?'' |

44021 | Was then the Danelaw the district within which the systems prevailed? |
44021 | Was there time, moreover, to construct such a fortress, if''the battle followed almost immediately'', as we learn,''on the arrival of Harold''? |
44021 | Was, then, our author a mere pedant, or was this the name that ignorance bestowed on knowledge? |
44021 | We are indeed; for, if he was''an aged man''half a century before, what must he have been when he joined the rebels in 1101? |
44021 | We must read:''and thereof is"gewered"[? |

41023 | A widow has lost her property-- will Mr. Crooks see her righted? |
41023 | All well and good; but why is the question not put to other politicians and public men? |
41023 | And how were the fourteen millions spent? |
41023 | And looking up into my face, he asked,''Who is yer, guv''nor?'' |
41023 | Another time a man got up, and after reading out a list of parsons who had been sentenced asked me what I had to say to that? |
41023 | Are n''t they? |
41023 | At the close of the next week he was asked after pay- time--"Did the missus meet you last week?" |
41023 | At the end of the third week a fellow- workman whispered:"What time are you going home, Will?" |
41023 | But are you going to put dead birds before living men? |
41023 | But he had often heard it asked when a poor man was standing:"Who is finding your money?" |
41023 | But how could you pay three shillings a week out of that for the rent of our one room and then you and the wife live on the rest?'' |
41023 | But what did Crooks do? |
41023 | Crooks?" |
41023 | Crooks?" |
41023 | Do all mothers have to cry before they can get bread for their children?" |
41023 | Do you know the Ten Commandments?" |
41023 | Do you know what I remember about you? |
41023 | Do you know what that means? |
41023 | Do you mean to say that I, a working man, am offered something for nothing?'' |
41023 | Do you think the working man gets a day off to see his sons play cricket in the public parks? |
41023 | Do you think this system of constant starvation would be tolerated for a day if women had the vote?" |
41023 | Does not that involve an obligation on the State to take temptation out of their way?" |
41023 | Does the Government prefer grouse- shooting to finding work for honest men? |
41023 | Does this mean you are going to leave Poplar? |
41023 | Further, why not try a scheme of afforestation on some portion of these Crown lands, which, after all, were the lands of the people? |
41023 | Have you ever lived in a family where the slices have to be counted, and where every child could eat twice as much as its allowance? |
41023 | He said to me quite bluntly,''Are you not a miserable sinner?'' |
41023 | He writes his name, puts his hand in his pocket, and asks how much? |
41023 | Here are some characteristic dialogues:--"Well, my boy, what are you here for?" |
41023 | How are we going to train our men and women workers to take on the responsibilities of regulating their own lot in a better manner? |
41023 | How came it that a working man like Crooks was able to give his whole time to public work? |
41023 | How was it?" |
41023 | How would the College fare now? |
41023 | How? |
41023 | I''ve known a man say,''Which way shall I go to- day?'' |
41023 | If it''s only cheapness you want, why do n''t you set up the lethal chamber for the old people? |
41023 | If so, please give up Parliament, for who have we to look to for help if you go away?" |
41023 | Is n''t it scandalous? |
41023 | It ran:-- Dear Teacher,--Will you allow my little girls to come home at half- past three? |
41023 | It was on the Terrace he overheard a Conservative Member ask a Liberal:--"Are you in favour of this Bill?" |
41023 | It''s so filling, is n''t it, when you''re hungry?" |
41023 | Meanwhile, what are our children to do for bread?'' |
41023 | Nothing to pay?'' |
41023 | One of the little girls came running up to me in the playground the other day, exclaiming:''Oh, Mr. Crooks, what do you think? |
41023 | See that champagne glass on the piano? |
41023 | See? |
41023 | So he went up to him and said:"Well, mate, what''s amiss?" |
41023 | Something of the kind has been done in Ireland; why not in England? |
41023 | Talk about the fierce light that beats upon a throne, what is it to the fierce light turned upon a Labour representative? |
41023 | That bright- faced lad of twelve-- why is he here? |
41023 | The Committees found themselves asking, What was the use of organising work for the unemployed when there were no means of paying wages? |
41023 | The Inspector:--You rely on Mr. Chaplin''s circular? |
41023 | The coal- man crying coals in the street all in vain, one morning hails him in passing:--"Wot''s wrong with people this morning, Mr. Crooks? |
41023 | The new- comer said to himself,"I wonder whether you would soon get over it if you had been taken from your mother and parted from a young brother?" |
41023 | Those"luxuries for paupers"down at Poplar, about which the world was to hear so much, what were they? |
41023 | Was it at the University? |
41023 | Was it by taking a double first at Oxford or Cambridge that he would turn out a great law- maker, or was it by constant contact with humanity? |
41023 | Was the Act, so hardly won, to fail on its first trial? |
41023 | Was this Bill of theirs only introduced to kill time-- to wait until the birds were big enough to be shot? |
41023 | What are you supposed to be here for?" |
41023 | What did Bony do? |
41023 | What do you expect them to become? |
41023 | What do_ you_ think? |
41023 | What else can we do but try to keep the bodies and souls of these poor people together in times of trade depression and cold weather?" |
41023 | What good can you expect to do with such men? |
41023 | What have you to say to facts like these? |
41023 | What is the result? |
41023 | What is there to giggle at? |
41023 | What kind of food was it that Poplar dared to give to the poor? |
41023 | What of them? |
41023 | What sort of citizens of this great Empire City will they make? |
41023 | What will you do?" |
41023 | What_ did_ Dickens do? |
41023 | When we asked"Why?" |
41023 | Where can I earn a bob?" |
41023 | Where shall I look for work to- day? |
41023 | Who am I to deserve it?... |
41023 | Who is he? |
41023 | Who knows but what it is God''s will that we should do it again? |
41023 | Why ca n''t she get bread? |
41023 | Why can I always get the truth from the poor, who so often deceive you parsons? |
41023 | Why could n''t we have had a gentleman for mayor like Morton? |
41023 | Why did they not discover and report these matters years ago? |
41023 | Why do I say pay pensions through the Poor Law? |
41023 | Why should the authority that looks after workhouses for the old and infirm be entrusted with the task of training the young? |
41023 | With what result? |
41023 | Wot''s the use of talking to us about sacrifices when we ca n''t make both ends meet as it is?" |
41023 | Would he come again? |
41023 | Yes, but where? |
41023 | Your missus been at you?" |
41023 | _ A._--Tell me what you would do-- leave them to starve on the streets? |
41023 | _ Q._--I ask you to show me any authority for a grant continuously of, say, ten shillings a week to these old people? |
41023 | _ Q._--I suggest, is it not a dangerous doctrine for local authorities to exceed their statutory powers? |
41023 | _ Q._--Is not that rather a dangerous doctrine? |
41023 | _ Q._--To other places than Poplar? |
41023 | gentleman please speak in English?" |
41023 | he cried;"ai n''t I talked to him at the Causeway here many a time?" |
41023 | the floor fallen in? |
41023 | to their names? |
61647 | Am I a prisoner? |
61647 | And I? |
61647 | And what shall I do with this silver if I have neither house nor land? |
61647 | But could you tell me the way to my countrymen''s ships, on the sea coast? |
61647 | But how shall we know if he is from God? |
61647 | Did I not warn you that I knew William? |
61647 | Did you ever hear of a king being drowned? |
61647 | Do they take me for an Englishman,said he,"with their dreams? |
61647 | Do you leave me nothing? |
61647 | Do you think that I have nothing else to do but to conquer kingdoms for you? |
61647 | Do you think they will fight? |
61647 | Do you wish then to be more than a saint? |
61647 | Dost thou remember? |
61647 | For whom are you? |
61647 | Have you not coffers of gold and silver filled with the bones of the dead? |
61647 | How can men who possess such palaces make such efforts to conquer our miserable hovels? |
61647 | How old do you suppose I am, uncle? |
61647 | If he asked thee only to follow his counsels, wouldst thou obey? |
61647 | Indeed, sir king,said the earl,"and could I not send you the heads of the destroyers?" |
61647 | Is any quarter given? |
61647 | Is my son dead or overthrown, or so wounded that he can not help himself? |
61647 | It is not from the king, then, that you obtain everything? |
61647 | King,cried Godwin,"how comes it that at the slightest remembrance of your brother, you always look so fiercely at me? |
61647 | My lord,he said,"of what use is it to keep your news from us? |
61647 | No doubt he is our lord,they said;"but is it not enough for him that we should pay his taxes? |
61647 | Sir king,said Wat Tyler,"do you see those men yonder?" |
61647 | The Lord who gave me my children, can give me others,rejoined Edward;"but who can give me back a father?" |
61647 | To whom shall I surrender? |
61647 | What ails you? |
61647 | What are the English laws to us? |
61647 | What do you, my friends? |
61647 | What does such a brother deserve? |
61647 | What has become of the king''s son? |
61647 | What have you done? |
61647 | What is that? |
61647 | What is your name? |
61647 | What matters that? |
61647 | Where is Earl Tostig, son of Godwin? |
61647 | Where is my cousin, the Prince of Wales? 61647 Where is the archbishop?" |
61647 | Wherefore? |
61647 | Who are you? |
61647 | Who has done this? |
61647 | Who is the warrior with such a proud tongue? |
61647 | Why are you so bold with me, my lord, earl? |
61647 | Why do you cause me to be thus guarded? |
61647 | Why do you discuss together? |
61647 | Why so? |
61647 | Would you have me ruin my kingdom? |
61647 | You are aware of your rights,he said to the young prince,"do you wish to become king?" |
61647 | You think? |
61647 | And what does he offer to my noble ally, King Harold, son of Sigurd?" |
61647 | At the same instant Malise, earl of Strathern, was heard to exclaim,"What need have we of this stranger? |
61647 | Do they think I am one of those idiots who abandon their course or their affairs because an old woman chances to dream or sneeze? |
61647 | Do you not know how trade languished in this country? |
61647 | Do you not see banners and pennants flying in the valley?" |
61647 | Do you take me for a traitor?" |
61647 | Does he wish me to send her body to him?" |
61647 | Geoffrey,"cried the king,"what has your unhappy father done to you that you should thus make a target of him for your arrows?" |
61647 | O king, why do you allow him to retire thus safe and sound?" |
61647 | Remember that it is we who have placed these tribes in your hands, and thence arise? |
61647 | Richard angrily exclaimed one day;"Am I your king or your prisoner?" |
61647 | The king shifted the question:"Will you,"he asked the assembly of prelates,"swear to maintain the ancient customs of the realm?" |
61647 | Was it an act of treachery, and did he himself cause King Edward to be informed of the bargain which he had concluded? |
61647 | What are you here for?" |
61647 | When Langton read aloud the claims of the barons, John angrily exclaimed,"And why do they not also ask for my crown? |
61647 | Where should we go, if we should lose our country?" |
61647 | Would you thus depart and leave the good city of Paris? |
61647 | You are my children in God; can a son sit in judgment on his father? |
61647 | You know how many burdens they have already borne for you? |
61647 | after so many pardons and declarations by the Parliament?" |
61647 | and what other brother should we have if we lost him?" |
61647 | exclaimed the duke,"ought I to let our brother die of thirst? |
61647 | he exclaimed,"do you bear in mind against whom you are going to fight? |
61647 | inquired Fitzurse,"from the Pope or from the king?" |
61647 | said Henry to Roger Bigod;"do you not know that I could order all your corn to be destroyed?" |
61647 | said he to the archer,"what had I done to you that you should have attempted my life?" |
61647 | sire and noble king, what would you do? |
61647 | { 167}"From whom do you hold your appointment as archbishop?" |
61647 | { 168} His cross- bearer alone had not fled"Where is the traitor?" |
61647 | { 264}"What have you done?" |
46690 | ''And they would have been taken from the burning river?'' 46690 ''And was there anything else worthy of notice?'' |
46690 | ''Have n''t''ee heard it, yer honour? 46690 ''However cud''ee have said that, Tom?'' |
46690 | ''Most remarkable,''said the gentleman;''and can you tell me what caused the darkness?'' 46690 ''Very well; then, tell me, did you see a great bird fly over London, so large as to hide the light of the sun with its wings?'' |
46690 | ''You really mean it?'' 46690 A real, live badger?" |
46690 | And are there piskies now? |
46690 | And so say you all? |
46690 | And the man? |
46690 | And your verdict is that the cask of brandy, seized in the Queen''s name, is brackish? |
46690 | But where is meadow- close? |
46690 | But where? |
46690 | Ded''ee ever hear tell ov a man up to Lunnon who slept with a badger? |
46690 | Ded''ee ever hear th''story of Smiler''s cat? 46690 Did Brother John patent the process?" |
46690 | Do you mean that a preacher of the Gospel over- drives his horse? |
46690 | Do''ee miss her, Bill? |
46690 | Dolly Pentreath? 46690 Going Church- town, art a?" |
46690 | Had anybody got anything belonging to her? |
46690 | Have it your own way,said Guy;"but would n''t some other place do just as well?" |
46690 | How be gettin''on, Jim, without the ould woman? |
46690 | How can all these things have happened if Old Artful never crossed the Tamar? |
46690 | How do you account for this uncommon piety in a cat? |
46690 | How far? |
46690 | How is it that I''ve got all the scads? |
46690 | I was asked by a woman on leaving the house of a patient the other day what the matter was? 46690 Is it nearly full?" |
46690 | Is that story in print? |
46690 | Is this genuine, or only make- up? |
46690 | It''s there all the same, and the sea has voices and prophecies for them which we landsmen miss; and why not? 46690 Lonely, s''poase?" |
46690 | May I give the order? |
46690 | Never mind me: we can afford it, caan''t us, old''un? |
46690 | Or two? |
46690 | Say an hour? |
46690 | So say you all? |
46690 | Stranger? |
46690 | Thank''ee kindly, but what be un vur? |
46690 | The man treated me as an equal, and played the host, and how could I tip him? |
46690 | Three of us? |
46690 | Tithe pig, es et? 46690 Want to see Farmer? |
46690 | Well, then, Tom Trebilcock? 46690 Well?" |
46690 | What Act of Parliament is so effective as a feeling of reverence consecrated by centuries? 46690 What became of the notes?" |
46690 | What do you want here, my little man? |
46690 | What''s the matter, Missus? |
46690 | What''s up? |
46690 | Where to? |
46690 | Where''s home? |
46690 | Why not? |
46690 | Why would you rather not? |
46690 | Will you be long? |
46690 | Yes, and which is the way? |
46690 | You doan''t know our Passun, s''poase? 46690 You''d like to see what''s to be seen, s''poase?" |
46690 | ''And what did you hear?'' |
46690 | ''Doan''t''ee knaw me? |
46690 | ''Who ar''ee?'' |
46690 | A youngster was posting a letter in Sydney, New South Wales, and a friend of the family asked,"Where''s that letter going, sonnie?" |
46690 | After a time, we captured a few syllables, and the Bookworm wrote down phonetically a conversation with two voices only--"Say- yu, whatkoorarta?" |
46690 | After that we dropped the''Softie,''and re- named him''Amen- who- shied- that- boot?'' |
46690 | All of''m?" |
46690 | An ordinary conversation is like this--"Where are you going?" |
46690 | And ded''m come? |
46690 | And did you hear anything else?'' |
46690 | And do you mean to tell me that''bad laws,''forsooth, made you smuggle the books? |
46690 | And if the Gulf Stream was n''t America, what was? |
46690 | And then the under- feeding? |
46690 | And what did the little man do? |
46690 | And what was the Cornu- Breton link?" |
46690 | And when the vision passed in the broad valley of the Teign, he asked simply--"Is there more of this?" |
46690 | And why not? |
46690 | And why not? |
46690 | But do people believe in them?" |
46690 | Did he ever tire of looking at the sea? |
46690 | Did you ever catch one, Master Miller?" |
46690 | Everybody asks his neighbour,"Have you bathed?" |
46690 | Guy asked Mrs. Penaluna whether she thought that the women inside would come out alive? |
46690 | Guy asked the Bookworm how long he thought it would take him to pick up the dialect? |
46690 | Guy wanted to know why fishers are always called"poor,"and why sentimental tears were shed over their hard lot? |
46690 | Had deponent ever seen a nuggie? |
46690 | Have n''t''ee heard that London was as black as night at noon- day?'' |
46690 | He may get some, who knows? |
46690 | He spoke slowly, and it came out like this--"Say you, what coor art thou?" |
46690 | He was keen as ever on collecting relics of the late King, and inquired if the holy grail was yet on view at the castle? |
46690 | I wonder how often she was before her betters for assault and battery, and using profane language in an unknown tongue?" |
46690 | If it''s England where the British flag waves, then is n''t it America where American water runs? |
46690 | If this was the legitimate play, what could the other have been? |
46690 | Mr. Chamberlain could have done no better, could he? |
46690 | No? |
46690 | Now, what did the piskie do? |
46690 | Said he:"We doan''t want to go coorting, do us? |
46690 | Said she:"You knaw, s''poase, ef I do marry agen, boy Tom''ll have the property?" |
46690 | Says the coastguard officer,"What is it, my men?" |
46690 | Search? |
46690 | So he slept and woke again, and asked,"Is it nearly full?" |
46690 | St. Patrick had driven the snakes into the sea, and why not the saints drive the piskies out of Cornwall? |
46690 | The common furze which blooms perpetually has, on that account, got mixed up with kissing; and when a girl is asked,"When is kissing out of season?" |
46690 | The first question asked about a stranger is, what does he, or she, look like? |
46690 | The question was, What shall we do with the saints? |
46690 | The vish was in the zay, an''th''wind was in the clouds, and what else was there in this world worth looking at? |
46690 | The woman was sweetly placid, and asked Guy if he was in a hurry? |
46690 | Then he:"Why, es that so? |
46690 | Then where were the Navy League, and the Coast Defence Committee, and Mr. Balfour''s great speech in the House of Commons? |
46690 | Then, tell me, did you eat some whitepot at Smithfield Market?'' |
46690 | There were exploration societies in Italy and Greece, and why not in Cornwall, wherein there is a lost history and a lost language to recover? |
46690 | They do say----""How do we get there?" |
46690 | This was"Uncle Tom"and"Uncle Tom''s post,"and the men, in passing, would hail him,"How ar''ee to- day, Uncle Tom?" |
46690 | Tin was known in the days of Moses, and where could it have come from but here? |
46690 | Wad''ee, Tom?" |
46690 | Was there anything we would like to see or hear about? |
46690 | Was there ever such luck? |
46690 | Well, that''s fact, edn''t et? |
46690 | What could be more dramatic in a cottage with only a fireplace, a wash- tray, and a stool in it for accessories? |
46690 | What did Murray say? |
46690 | What do I caal''em? |
46690 | What if his faith should fail now? |
46690 | What is it, all of it, from the Tamar to the Land''s End? |
46690 | What next, I wonder? |
46690 | What was the good of guide- books to fellows on their rambles? |
46690 | What were the popular stories with which you sent children sobbing to bed, about the Great Napoleon?" |
46690 | When Arthur first opened his eyes upon this rock, what impression do you think he received? |
46690 | Where on earth have we been living?" |
46690 | Which shall us giv''m?" |
46690 | White roses and orchids are consecrated to other illustrious persons, and why not blackberries to John Wesley? |
46690 | Who cared how many yards he was from anywhere, or how many miles it was from one place to another? |
46690 | Who had a better title to them? |
46690 | Why not? |
46690 | Why not? |
46690 | Why should n''t his own mother''s father have been a deserter from the king''s ship, and been saved by Dolly Pentreath? |
46690 | Why should they be? |
46690 | Wonder if they did n''t; but why this high- falutin?" |
46690 | Would Heaven fail him now? |
46690 | Would they like to look into the crock, and see if a man was boiling there? |
46690 | Would''ee like to see the badger?" |
46690 | my man; which is the way to Church- town?" |
46690 | why did they pitch upon this place? |
6599 | And board himself? |
6599 | And you are from America? 6599 Arrah, what would he be shot for?" |
6599 | But there is a great deal of disturbance, is there not? |
6599 | Come now, what did he do? |
6599 | Do you,said Mr. Corscadden,"want your land at what it was 118 years ago? |
6599 | Has he been shot at yet? |
6599 | Have the laboring class any garden ground to their homes? |
6599 | Have you a small farm? |
6599 | Have you, sir, restored what you have robbed? |
6599 | He let you gather sticks in his woods, then? |
6599 | How can you pay it? |
6599 | How long, Lord, are we to endure the cruelty of this man? |
6599 | How much did he get for digging a grave? |
6599 | How were wages going? |
6599 | Is it Mr. Wynne, ma''am? 6599 Now,"said Mr. Corscadden to him,"what do you want?" |
6599 | Some people now want a man to work for a shilling and board himself, but how could a man do that? 6599 Was there ever any help allowed to a man in building a new house?" |
6599 | Well, that''s not much? |
6599 | What have you left for yourself? |
6599 | What made people dislike him so? |
6599 | Where are the hapless people, doomed by John Adair''s decree? 6599 Where inside of the four seas of Ireland will you get his aiquil? |
6599 | Why did they murder him? |
6599 | Why did you not refuse to pay these increased rents when they were put upon you first? 6599 Why, what makes you think him such a good man?" |
6599 | Without food of course? |
6599 | Would his name appear? |
6599 | ''s cry at Fontenoy, will the enemy be able to countervail the Queen''s damage? |
6599 | ( Was Baal ever the same as Tommuz, the Adonis of Scripture?) |
6599 | As I left the train at Tandragee she laid her faded glove on my arm and whispered,"It is their duty to be content in their own station, is it not?" |
6599 | Asked my friend if the other side had not any tales of suffered atrocities to tell? |
6599 | At one station where we stopped, one respectable- looking man asked of another,"Have you got anything to do yet, Robert?" |
6599 | But where are the rest? |
6599 | Did he think that increasing the hunger pain would make him more thoughtful, more orderly? |
6599 | Did he, in his own consciousness, think he was doing right in his system of fines? |
6599 | Does the Gospel mean brother to war against brother for the possession of his field? |
6599 | For whom did they take me? |
6599 | Forever the world is saying"Lord, behold what manner of stones and what buildings are here?" |
6599 | Had they any objection? |
6599 | He then took up the case of one tenant, James Gilray, who waited on him to enquire,"What are you going to do with me?" |
6599 | He was fined L12, and would my lady do anything? |
6599 | How could they help themselves, I''d like to know? |
6599 | How do you know the price? |
6599 | How many deaths do these timid deer suffer? |
6599 | How many more would leave the island that has no place for them, if they only had the means? |
6599 | How much have you?" |
6599 | How, then, could they possibly be able to pay back rent in March, 1881? |
6599 | I am content with mine, why not they with theirs? |
6599 | If he could not help fining the people until he fined off the most of their wages, were they to blame for refusing to work for him? |
6599 | If they have not both, what business have they to set up for gentry? |
6599 | Is not the land desolate without inhabitant, where then is the over- population?" |
6599 | Is the soul of the beggar more dear to God as a dwelling place than these lofty temples? |
6599 | Is there not something very wrong when such things can be? |
6599 | It is delightfully sleepy, swarming with little shops with some little things to sell; but where are the buyers? |
6599 | Looking for what-- for the slowly approaching time of peace, plenty and prosperity, of tardy justice and kindly appreciation? |
6599 | Old lady--"Making money by it, do you mean?" |
6599 | Old lady--"Why are Irish people so turbulent?" |
6599 | Popular opinion thinks of them as Carleton''s hedge scholar expressed himself,"You a gentleman? |
6599 | Still when the question was asked squarely,"Are there no reasons for wishing for reform of the land laws?" |
6599 | The captain enquires,"Is that passenger no better yet?" |
6599 | The great wonder to me is where the laborers who produce all this neatness and beauty live? |
6599 | The landlord thinks he is doing no wrong, for, is he not actually charging less than Lord So- and- so, or Sir Somebody or other? |
6599 | They might do this, or this, or this, and it would be profitable, but where are the means to take the first step? |
6599 | Was it in any part of this building that the naughty lady watched for her lover? |
6599 | Was the Government right in taking his part when it had neither eye nor ear for his people''s complaint? |
6599 | What is the proposal now by the tenants and agitators? |
6599 | What kind of a system is it that produces such scenes, and such feelings? |
6599 | When he asked me pleasantly if I had come as a friend, I thought at once of the Bethlehem elders to Samuel,"Comest thou peaceably?" |
6599 | Where are the small farmers on whom the high rent presses so heavily? |
6599 | Where are they? |
6599 | Where is the freedom of contract of which so much is said? |
6599 | Who knows? |
6599 | Why allow the system to be introduced into Tyrone? |
6599 | Why do they paint all the steamers black in this green Erin of ours? |
6599 | Why in the world should I remember him? |
6599 | Why should they join the Land League? |
6599 | Will another Father Mathew arise? |
6599 | Will she miss the clansmen of Athol, Breadalbane and Mar? |
6599 | Will the exterminating lords who must have hunting grounds at all hazards come to the front with squadrons of deer or battalions of rabbits? |
6599 | Would he have done better if he had been suddenly brought to change places with his serf? |
6599 | Would my lady send out their two daughters to America and place them in decent places? |
6599 | Would they disturb her in possession? |
6599 | the answer was,"We would not go quite so far as that?" |

48055 | Do they enjoy the painted and sculptured masterpieces presented to their admiration? |
48055 | Do they really amuse themselves? |
48055 | Do you never give thanks? |
48055 | For what country has such work- houses, such gin- palaces, such company promoters, such Sunday clothes, and such respectability?" |
48055 | God sends youth and health and beauty; what devil brings sickness, grief, and decay? |
48055 | Had he been to Edinburgh too? |
48055 | Has not another poet said,''He was not of an age, but for all time''? |
48055 | How do they touch the common people? |
48055 | How do you spell it?" |
48055 | How is it that in the years that were earlier, I saw only fêtes and picnics? |

48055 | The public museums and picture- galleries are very fine institutions, but how much do they affect or brighten the lives of the mass? |
48055 | Under all this sartorial medley of frock- coats, jackets, mantles, capes, cloth, silk, satins, rags, what truth? |
48055 | WAS SHAKESPEARE A SCOTSMAN? |
48055 | Was I brave enough to join the venture and risk the after- part? |
48055 | Was mine host, then, of a literary turn? |
48055 | We have paid homage to the celebrated dead: what about those that have done their duty and have received neither fame nor monument? |
48055 | We would prefer to take a walk until your cornerman is through: at what time will the Nautch Girls appear?" |
48055 | What could these lines mean? |
48055 | What do we know of Life, we that seek it in the perfumed mire and corruption of the West End? |
48055 | What do we know of work and trade, we that scramble for gold dust in London? |
48055 | What if it were left to me to solve the mystery? |
48055 | What is this Life at all, and what its purport? |
48055 | Where are sweeter woods than those of Epping or Hadley? |

48055 | asked the gentleman who had looked interested;"have n''t they a pier at Blackpool?" |

48055 | eh? |
48055 | gentlemen of the Spiers& Pond and money- making world, is n''t it a brave picture to think of? |
48055 | he said,"or workmen''s dwellings?" |
48055 | how can their women and children live?" |
48055 | how to blot out their passions, spites, and rancours, and get at their human kinship and brotherhood? |
48055 | how to evolve the best of them? |
48055 | or a British Association picnic?" |

48055 | what purport? |
48055 | who knows? |
7415 | And what was your trouble? |
7415 | Be you feeling bad-- what be the matter? |
7415 | Be you saying that Tory''s old Tom''s son? 7415 But if you have always lived here you must know what is said on this stone?" |
7415 | But what could your little brother, a child of seven, do in such a place? |
7415 | Did they fall ill at the same time? |
7415 | He wo n''t hurt''ee; he''s starving-- don''t you see his bones sticking out? 7415 How can I go on? |
7415 | How do you think these swedes came here? |
7415 | How many bells have you got on your sheep-- it sounds as if you had a great many? |
7415 | How would it have been if you had said,''Catch him, Bob,''or whatever his name was? |
7415 | Is it true? |
7415 | The girl brought them for me to mend, and I said,''Leave them and I''ll do them when I''ve time''--how did I know he wanted them in a hurry? 7415 Two hunderd ewes,"he said,"and a hunderd more to come-- what d''you think of that?" |
7415 | Well, what did you do it for-- what was your object in running here? |
7415 | Well, will you come a little way on the road with us? |
7415 | Well? |
7415 | What are you doing here, shepherd? |
7415 | What are you doing here? |
7415 | What are you here for-- what''s wrong with''ee? |
7415 | What be his name? |
7415 | What be looking at? |
7415 | What be saying? |
7415 | What be this? |
7415 | What be wrong with master to- day? |
7415 | What be you talking about? |
7415 | What be you wanting, Watch-- a drink or a swim? |
7415 | What did you want? |
7415 | What dost mean, keeper, by a year or so? |
7415 | What has he got in his mouth? |
7415 | What sort of a dog do you call that? |
7415 | What would father say? |
7415 | What''s that you say? |
7415 | What, did n''t he tell you about the dog? |
7415 | Where''s Monk then? |
7415 | Who put a stone over them-- their children? |
7415 | Why do you ask me that? |
7415 | Why do you tell me to do a thing for which I shall be thrashed? |
7415 | Why, what''s wrong about it? |
7415 | Will that dog bite, missus? |
7415 | Yes? 7415 You knew them, I suppose?" |
7415 | And now what could he do to save one of the two from hateful imprisonment? |
7415 | And what be you going to do with the lambs?" |
7415 | But apart from the fiddlededee, is the thing he states believable? |
7415 | But how is he to know it unless he witnesses its outward beautiful signs every day and every hour on every countenance he looks upon? |
7415 | But-- to pass to another subject-- what does the shepherd himself think or feel about it; and why does he have bells on his sheep? |
7415 | Can you read me another?" |
7415 | Did they imagine, she asked, that any great lady in the world with all her gold could tempt her to leave her own darling to nurse another woman''s? |
7415 | For what use would it be to him? |
7415 | How would he get that flock of hungry lambs out of the rape without a dog? |
7415 | How''s he dead?" |
7415 | Is that a right way to speak of such a thing as that? |
7415 | Is that true?" |
7415 | Mother, ai n''t you coming down for a bit of bread and cheese before you go to bed?'' |
7415 | Mother, where are you?'' |
7415 | Now what do you say about it?" |
7415 | She agreed that it was, but what could she do? |
7415 | She would tell it and would not be silenced by him: they were all dead and gone-- why should I not be told if I wanted to hear it? |
7415 | Then one of them said,"Be you Shepherd Caleb Bawcombe?" |
7415 | Then when the talk did seem all over, Bawcombe, ignorant of the forms, got up and said,"I beg your lordship''s pardon, but may I speak?" |
7415 | What ailed him-- what killed him? |
7415 | What am I to do?" |
7415 | What be you thinking of? |
7415 | What did the shepherd want? |
7415 | What did they mean? |
7415 | What had been Liddy''s after- life? |
7415 | What secret trouble had he-- was it that his affairs were in a bad way, or was he quarrelling with his wife? |
7415 | What was she to do in her condition, no longer to be concealed, alone and friendless in the world? |
7415 | What, then, does it matter how they regard this common orange- coloured flower with a strong smell? |
7415 | Whatever be I thinking of? |
7415 | Where are they all? |
7415 | Where be going so fast, man-- don''t''ee see we ca n''t keep up with''ee?" |
7415 | Where be going then?--to a new place?" |
7415 | Wherein, then, does the"Wylye bourne"differ from these others, and what is its special attraction? |
7415 | Who be these women out so late? |
7415 | Who were the men? |
7415 | Who, I asked, was Mrs. Taylor? |
7415 | Who, then, was Martha''s husband? |
7415 | put them in the rape and no dog to help''ee?" |
7415 | you''d hear him call,''Mother, be you upstairs? |
8685 | And can it be possible,I asked,"that justice will not in the end be done to this unfortunate gentleman?" |
8685 | And has he not ordered any thing to be done to my leg; no fomentation or any other thing? |
8685 | But,said my mother,"because some of the clergy bear the character that you say they do, is that any reason that Henry should follow their example? |
8685 | Then pray, Sir,said I,"why will you not allow me a little recreation? |
8685 | Well, Rodney,said I to him,"what is all this dispute about, between your master and you?" |
8685 | Well, neighbour Barnes, what did you do, did you accept his offer, or did you shew him how to do it without the wager? |
8685 | What has he done, neighbour Barnes? |
8685 | What is the matter, friend Barnes? 8685 Are you sure that nothing will prevent you? |
8685 | But what shall I do, Douse? |
8685 | But who should we get? |
8685 | Have you any well- grounded hopes of my recovery? |
8685 | He came in, and having sternly surveyed us, after a short pause, he said,"Pray gentlemen, what wind brought you here?" |
8685 | He then cast his eyes towards the troop, as much as to say, will you not protect me? |
8685 | Her answer always was, having first quoted some amiable Christian precept,"would you leave them to starve, and thus drive them to despair? |
8685 | I begged then to know if he had any thing to urge against her father? |
8685 | I could not help sighing, and looking doubtfully, and as he took my hand, I said,"are you sure that you will come? |
8685 | I demanded how they could injure me? |
8685 | I demanded if he knew any thing in the slightest degree affecting the character of the young lady? |
8685 | I demanded, why so? |
8685 | I obeyed;"Pray, Sir,"said he,"what were you laughing at?" |
8685 | I then demanded, whether, if she were, fit to be held up by him as a pattern for his daughters, she were likely to degrade his son as his wife? |
8685 | I think I hear some of my more sceptical or prejudiced readers ask, could these be really the feelings of this man? |
8685 | If you should resign, why not stay at home with your wife, and attend to your business? |
8685 | Is this the man who only two short months before proposed to suckle his child with his setter? |
8685 | It may be said, if you are really so, why not rest satisfied with the pleasure of knowing it? |
8685 | It will be asked by some, how comes it that_ all_ the public press has been induced to represent you as a monster of this description? |
8685 | It will be asked by some, how did the labourers relish this extra toil and double work? |
8685 | Mrs. Tinker asked whether I and Mr. Waddington had joined in this toast? |
8685 | My eldest sister used sometimes to reply, rather petulantly,"Why do you not invite this lady to come and see us? |
8685 | Perhaps you will see him, madam?" |
8685 | Strip him of his estates and his riches, what would he be fit for? |
8685 | Tell me honestly whether, if he were left to provide for himself, you do not think he would be upon the parish books in a fortnight?" |
8685 | Upon which I said to the man,"Did you not make a complaint to the magistrates? |
8685 | Was Mr. Hunt not justified in selling his corn for the best price that he could obtain for it? |
8685 | Was there ever such paltering, ever such base and stupid attempts to delude rational beings? |
8685 | Was this really the case, Mr._ Justice Best_? |
8685 | Well,"added he,"what says Mr. Grant, will he come?" |
8685 | What can you expect if you go into another troop? |
8685 | What excuse shall I make?" |
8685 | What say you to this?" |
8685 | What says Bob Clare?" |
8685 | Whether no means could have been devised to settle the point in dispute, without resorting to arms, and sacrificing the best blood of both countries? |
8685 | Why do you sound your own trumpet, and endeavour to blazon it forth to the world? |
8685 | Would you like to see him the tutor to the son of some nobleman? |
8685 | and what then? |
8685 | this small indulgence?" |
8685 | what enchanted castle are we come to at last?" |
8685 | what is it that has ruffed your temper so?" |
8685 | what is the cause of this dereliction? |
8685 | will you not assist to get me out of this dilemma? |

50508 | Can nothing be done? |

50508 | Did he hit anything? |
50508 | Did he hit anything? |

50508 | Admiral Sir John Poo Beresford( 1768(? |
50508 | An old colonel of artillery, who knew my father, said to me:"You are a Beresford, an Irishman, and a sailor, and if you ca n''t ride, who can? |

50508 | Had I not a right to be proud of the seamen? |
50508 | Has he indeed?" |
50508 | He asked,''What''s that?'' |
50508 | He looked at me, and said,"Say, is it heavy?" |
50508 | He stuck as close{ 475} behind his host as my midshipman did to me; but his reply to all remonstrance was:"What are you grumbling at? |
50508 | How long will the nation allow the Navy to continue a sweated industry? |
50508 | How old do you think I am?" |
50508 | How, then, was it done? |
50508 | I asked him, where was his horse? |
50508 | I daresay a glass of grog would not come amiss to you, Jones?" |
50508 | I overheard the following dialogue between one of these tin- bottomed weary heroes and a comrade on the bank:"Hullo, Bill,''ow are you getting on?" |
50508 | I remember saying to him:"Why the devil ca n''t you leave another man''s religious convictions alone? |
50508 | I suppose, now, you''ve heard of my uncle, the admiral?" |
50508 | I told him, and,"Can you give me a suit of clothes, as they will draw Ballydurn in the afternoon, and I must be there?" |
50508 | If not, should not immediate steps be taken to minimise the danger?" |
50508 | Is it pain?--pity?--resignation?--vengeance?--or triumph?" |
50508 | Is there an''orspital there?" |

60895 | Yes, of course, how else should get home? |
60895 | Yes? 60895 Yet Mr. Parnell is so much an Englishman in his coldness and reserve?" |
60895 | You really think so? |
60895 | ----?" |
60895 | A lady and gentleman in the carriage remarked to me-- thinking he slept-- that my husband looked terribly ill, could they do anything? |
60895 | Afterwards I said to him:"You did not really mind about that picture, did you? |
60895 | Also someone said once to him,"Supposing Mrs. O''Shea told Parnell you said so and so, and it was more than you meant to say?" |
60895 | And if Mr. Chamberlain had been killed in May, 1882, what other course might British politics have taken? |
60895 | And when I persisted,"But do n''t you feel a little excited and proud when they all cheer you, really you?" |
60895 | But how far were the Liberals prepared to go? |
60895 | Can you bear it? |
60895 | Could you find two careful men to meet them? |
60895 | Could you not go to London or Brighton about the beginning of February? |
60895 | Did it still hold good? |
60895 | Did this represent Parnell''s views now? |
60895 | Do n''t you begin to feel quite jealous? |
60895 | Do you not think----?" |
60895 | Do you remember a small pair of scissors with fine points that Queenie once gave me in London? |
60895 | Do you remember what it was the last time? |
60895 | Do you think I had best wait here or go up to London and wait for a telegram from you? |
60895 | Do you think you shall be in town on Tuesday? |
60895 | Does Queenie think she will be too big? |
60895 | Does Wifie feel strong and well? |
60895 | Does she feel so? |
60895 | Had I shown any fear I think he would have done it, but I only held him tight and said:"As you will, my only love, but the children?" |
60895 | Has anything been done about the monument yet? |
60895 | Has he[2] left yet? |
60895 | He accepted the peasant lore of Ireland with the simplicity of a child, and I still remember his doubtful"Is that so?" |
60895 | He evidently feared to vex me, but admitted that he did think it was so, and"would n''t it do if they were not watered so often?" |
60895 | He replied to my pleadings:"Yes, I hold them now with my back to the wall, but if I turn to the Government I turn my back to them-- and then----?" |
60895 | He said he was desired to hand him that paper, at the same time handing him the copy, when the following conversation ensued: Parnell:"What is it?" |
60895 | He walked by his side and, addressing him,{ 300} said,"Mr. Parnell, I believe?" |
60895 | He was so careful in this regard that one day I said:"What is it you shut up in that room, Mr. Gladstone, when I come to see you?" |
60895 | How did Wifie find out I had grown a beard? |
60895 | How does Queenie intend letting her husband know how she is? |
60895 | How is your dear aunt? |
60895 | How would those labourers and cottier tenants vote? |
60895 | I answered,"Dear me, who was this charming lady? |
60895 | I burst out passionately,"Why does it matter more now? |
60895 | I can not at present give you the exact hour, but would it be too much to ask you to remain at home after three o''clock? |
60895 | I had told him that anyhow I would go up; but, as my lover said, what would be the use of it? |
60895 | I in my English ignorance used to say:"Why did they not go into the workhouse or to neighbours?" |
60895 | I remember my brother- in- law saying casually to my sister Emma, who was giving a dinner party that evening:"Who is Katie to go in with, milady?" |
60895 | If you think I had best not wait, will you telegraph? |
60895 | In what way do we make you weaker? |
60895 | In what way shall we be stronger to injure you? |
60895 | Is it dangerous? |
60895 | Is it true that Captain O''Shea is in Paris, and, if so, when do you expect his return? |
60895 | Is n''t it alive?" |
60895 | Is that so? |
60895 | Is there any address you could get nearer home, so that you would not have to go so far? |
60895 | May I leave them at Eltham? |
60895 | Morley said to me:''The people must be made to wake up a bit; ca n''t you{ 203} do anything to stir them up?''" |
60895 | O''Shea?" |
60895 | O''Shea?" |
60895 | O''Shea?" |
60895 | Parnell used to say to me as we walked away to the golden harbour,"Is it really like this, my Queen, or as we see it at noon?" |
60895 | Parnell would then say reproachfully,"Oh, Queenie, how can you deceive the poor dogs like that?" |
60895 | Parnell?" |
60895 | Queenie, my wife, you do not really think I am ill, do you?" |
60895 | Should I remain in London or go down to you? |
60895 | Should I urge him to come abroad with me? |
60895 | What am I to say to her? |
60895 | What armed policemen shall we have? |
60895 | What cannons shall we have? |
60895 | What do you intend to call her? |
60895 | What do you think I had best say to it? |
60895 | What single means shall we have, beyond the constitution, that we have not now, to work you injury? |
60895 | What soldiers shall we have? |
60895 | What''s the matter? |
60895 | What''s the use? |
60895 | When I said to Parnell,"Why not see Gladstone yourself privately, and get what you can from him, in return for the Irish vote?" |
60895 | When she was gone, my aunt, who was breathing with difficulty, whispered as I bent down to kiss her hand,"You do believe, do you not, my Swan?" |
60895 | Who will take your place?" |
60895 | Why did n''t you send Mr. Parnell round?" |
60895 | Why should I be supposed to have no other interests than Willie and my children? |
60895 | Why should I now?" |
60895 | Why should I?" |
60895 | Will not your physical capacity be the same as it is now? |
60895 | Will she mind asking for my number? |
60895 | Will you not give her papa''s best love and innumerable kisses? |
60895 | Will you not still have all the power of the Empire? |
60895 | Will you not still have your troops in the country? |
60895 | Willie or me?" |
60895 | Would Sophie make a nice second name? |
60895 | Would Tariff Reform ever have been a Tory election cry? |
60895 | Would n''t you hide your head with shame if your King were so stupid as that, my Queen?" |
60895 | Would the Tories not have enjoyed that long term of office which for years kept the question of Home Rule in abeyance? |
60895 | Would there have been no Boer War? |
60895 | Would you mind letting me see the''letter of warning''?" |
60895 | and he answered:"It was an omen, I think, darling, but for whom? |
60895 | exclaimed my husband in a horrified voice,"what do you mean? |
60895 | what shall we do? |
60895 | { 106}"My dear Mrs. O''Shea,"wrote Parnell from London on the 7th of January,"will you kindly ask Captain O''Shea where he left my luggage? |
60895 | { 113} Did she get my three letters? |
60895 | { 41} CHAPTER VI CAPTAIN O''SHEA ENTERS POLITICAL LIFE"_ D''un coeur qui t''aime, Mon Dieu, qui peut troubler la tranquille paix? |
8461 | Can you rely upon your friend, Sir,said the speaker,"as our communication will place our lives in your power?" |
8461 | Well, how did you manage to divide these things? |
8461 | Although they have been called your leading men, did they ever assemble you in county meeting? |
8461 | And can you, then, believe them sincere? |
8461 | And do you really believe, are you so besotted as to flatter yourselves, that you will escape? |
8461 | And is this all? |
8461 | And what has been the cause of all their hostility to me? |
8461 | And who are these men that have been the foremost to accuse me? |
8461 | And, ought the people to want any committee, to tell them their duty? |
8461 | But,_ how came it to be so?_ Who_ began_ the violences? |
8461 | But,_ how came it to be so?_ Who_ began_ the violences? |
8461 | Can you believe, that they have any other view than merely that of securing_ a seat for the party_ in Bristol? |
8461 | Davis?" |
8461 | Did they give you any reason to believe that they wish to have your opinion again? |
8461 | Did they promise you any such thing? |
8461 | Do you believe, Gentlemen, that they will ever call you together and tell you_ now_ is the time for Reform? |
8461 | Do you really believe, that"Where vice and cruelty go before, vengeance will not follow after?" |
8461 | Does your conviction go no farther than this? |
8461 | He inquired as follows--"_Pray, Sir, what day shall we have the pleasure of seeing you back again?_"I replied that it would be in about a week. |
8461 | How did you give your vote upon that occasion?" |
8461 | I ask,"What is there that one honest, courageous, and persevering man could not do in the House of Commons?" |
8461 | I asked Fisher what was the amount of the bill? |
8461 | I have heard the latter say,"d--- it, Sir, why do you not ride and head the hounds?" |
8461 | I may be asked by some,"what has this to do with your Memoirs, or with the political history of the times"? |
8461 | I next addressed the multitude, to inquire which of them was prepared to propose Sir John Jarvis, and which to second the proposition? |
8461 | In a broad north country accent, he exclaimed,"Sir, are you come here to teach us our duty?" |
8461 | In the first instance my country was in danger; she was threatened by the invasion of a foreign foe-- that was enough; what was my conduct? |
8461 | Is he a freeman or a freeholder of the county? |
8461 | Is there no honourable and independent man to be found in the county of Wilts, capable of sustaining such a charge? |
8461 | It will be asked, what said the husband of the lady? |
8461 | Mr. Trevillian, and Justice Goodford, likely men to bring about a Parliamentary Reform? |
8461 | Pray, who are the proper men to effect it? |
8461 | Silence being restored, the Sheriff demanded, in a very respectful tone, if I was either a freeman or a freeholder? |
8461 | The address to the King, which Mr. Cobbett moved, was seconded by the_ Reverend Mr. Baker_,( quere, is this the Parson Baker of Botley?) |
8461 | The amiable judge next inquired, whether I had any affidavits in answer to those filed against me on the part of the plaintiff? |
8461 | The colonies are to France only a secondary object; and does not your Majesty already possess more than you know how to preserve? |
8461 | The cry was, who is he? |
8461 | The reader will observe, that the great point is, WHO BEGAN THE FIGHT? |
8461 | Their argument was,"what have you to do with Cobbett''s quarrels-- is he not capable of defending himself?" |
8461 | Then how could there be any damage? |
8461 | To destroy our finances? |
8461 | To form a coalition with some powers of the Continent? |
8461 | To renew intestine troubles? |
8461 | To take from France her colonies? |
8461 | Upon his being asked by me, whether there was any boundary between Simpkins''s down and mine? |
8461 | Was it doing nothing to compel them to expose their union to the people? |
8461 | Was it doing nothing to get all the people together? |
8461 | Was it doing nothing to make them exhibit themselves thus, and to knock up for ever all the humbug of party in the county?" |
8461 | We asked if we could see the house? |
8461 | Well then, said I, will you get a piece of plate voted to me, by a few of our friends, whom you can easily call together at a private meeting? |
8461 | Well, and what then? |
8461 | Well, then, do these friends allow, that the parliament are the real representatives of the people, and that they speak the people''s voice? |
8461 | What business have_ lawyers_ with elections? |
8461 | What does he want more than a good cause and the support of the people? |
8461 | What is his name? |
8461 | What was to be done? |
8461 | What will even the impudence of the most prostituted knaves of hired writers find to say in cases like these? |
8461 | When he came to the turnpike, at the entrance of the town, he inquired if he should drive to the Bear? |
8461 | Why all this? |
8461 | Why, did not the shepherd swear there wa''n''t a mite of grass for a sheep to gnaw? |
8461 | Will they ever do it? |
8461 | Your nation is at the highest point of prosperity; what can it hope from war? |
8461 | what will be your feelings when you read this? |
8461 | will you go into the Court of King''s Bench, to argue a point of law with the four Judges, against their own decision? |
37848 | Are you Christians,said the holy man,"or heathens?" |
37848 | But if any one knoweth not how to rule over his own house, how shall he employ his care over the church of God? |
37848 | Have not I left all things to your disposal? |
37848 | My father,said she,"is there any daughter that can love her father more than duty requires? |
37848 | What is your name? |
37848 | Who,said the boy,"instructed you to do this?" |
37848 | Ye are,saith he,"the salt of the earth; if that the salt vanisheth away, wherein shall it be salted? |
37848 | --"Who can advise you in this matter,"said Ulfin,"when no force will enable us to have access to her in the town of Tintagel? |
37848 | A sword of fire is sent out against you, and who is he that shall restrain it? |
37848 | After seven years, Ceawlin and Cutha fought against the Britons, at a place called Fethanleage[ Frethern? |
37848 | And a little after,"Why hast thou looked upon mine incense, and upon my sacrifice, with a dishonest eye? |
37848 | And a little after:"What is the matter that my beloved hath in my houses committed many offences? |
37848 | And after a few words:"Who shall have pity on thee Jerusalem, or who shall be sorrowful for thee, or who shall pray for thy peace? |
37848 | And after some few speeches,"Whoso falleth doth he not arise again, and whoso is turned away, shall he not return again? |
37848 | And afterwards,"And the angel asked me, what dost thou see? |
37848 | And afterwards,"Why will ye contend with me in judgment? |
37848 | And again,"Behold our Lord of hosts will come, and who can conceive the day of his coming, and who shall endure to stand to behold him? |
37848 | And choirs of virgins celebrate thy praise? |
37848 | And how do ye fulfil that which followeth:"Behold I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves?" |
37848 | And indeed, should you refuse him, what right could you plead to the crown of Britain against him? |
37848 | And now what one of the aforesaid sort hath indeed been void of all these? |
37848 | And shall we Christians be worse than the Jews, in refusing them mercy? |
37848 | And therefore what holy man is there, who, moved with the narration of such a history, would not presently break out into weeping and lamentations? |
37848 | And thus complaining, he begins his prophecy:"How long, O Lord, shall I call, and thou wilt not hear? |
37848 | And what did he commit, whether it were adultery or murder, like to the offences of the present time? |
37848 | And what shall adorn the city? |
37848 | And what shall then become of you, who, as the prophet hath said, believe God only with your lips, and do not adhere to him with your hearts? |
37848 | And which of ye hath willingly fulfilled that which next ensueth? |
37848 | And who hath known us? |
37848 | And who would not prefer the possession of a lesser country with liberty, to all the riches of that island in servitude? |
37848 | And,"If the just indeed be hardly saved, where shall the wicked and sinner appear?" |
37848 | Are not men in the course of human generation often the reverse of one another? |
37848 | Are there not also at this time many countries and cities bearing the same names as they did two or three thousand years ago? |
37848 | As for what you complain of,--that you were banished your country by him,--if you duly consider the result, in strictness can it be called injustice? |
37848 | Because you were only the common people at the time when we had soldiers of our own, do you therefore think that manhood has quite forsaken you? |
37848 | Berin- byrig, Banbury? |
37848 | Britain has rulers, and she has watchmen: why dost thou incline thyself thus uselessly to prate?" |
37848 | But how shall it be, where neither the father, nor the son, depraved by the example of his evil parent, is found to be chaste? |
37848 | But let us pass over to that which followeth to this effect:"What shall we therefore say, shall we continue still in sin that grace may abound? |
37848 | But tell me now, what is there under the foundation? |
37848 | But what can he do, if he can not save himself or escape thence? |
37848 | But why do we dwell in examples of the Old Testament as if there were none in the New? |
37848 | But why doth our meanness intermeddle in this so manifest a determination? |
37848 | But why should I say more? |
37848 | Cair gurcoc(_ Anglesey?_) 4. |
37848 | Can not those same poisonous cups of offences yet satisfy thy stomach? |
37848 | Cittanford( Ottanford?) |
37848 | Conan made answer:"Why is he then attended with so great a multitude? |
37848 | Dic certam sedem qua te venerabor in ævum, Qua tibi virgineis templa dicabo choris?" |
37848 | Do I with my will voluntarily wish the death of the unrighteous, saith our Lord, rather than that he should return from his evil way and live? |
37848 | Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? |
37848 | Do not such narratives exhibit proofs of Divine Providence? |
37848 | Do not you, therefore, think that we ought to demand tribute of the Romans? |
37848 | Does he desire to be reconciled and make his submission to Cæsar, of whom Cæsar himself had before desired peace? |
37848 | Does my lord then condescend to entreat me now, whom before he took upon him to command? |
37848 | Does not the same diversity happen in a mechanic and a soldier? |
37848 | Doth God, therefore, not behold the works of the wicked? |
37848 | Doth the virgin forget her ornament, or the spouse her gorget? |
37848 | For what does the scripture afterwards declare of his son? |
37848 | For what prince is to be compared with the king of Britain, either for brave and gallant soldiers, or for large treasures? |
37848 | For what room could there be for suspicion, when Gorlois himself seemed to be there present? |
37848 | For what wise man will resist the wholesome counsel of God? |
37848 | For who can doubt that they who, as conquerors of the world, were at liberty to choose, did not select places fitted for their purposes? |
37848 | For who less than he could have released from their chains the banished Trojans, when reduced under slavery to so many great princes? |
37848 | For who was present in the counsel of our Lord, and hath seen and heard his speech, who hath considered of his word, and hearkened thereunto? |
37848 | For why shall their countrymen conceal what foreign nations round about now not only know, but also continually are casting in their teeth? |
37848 | God forbid, for we who are dead to sin, how shall we again live in the same?" |
37848 | God will threaten all, and who will not be terrified? |
37848 | Have these base exiles made a camp also in my kingdom? |
37848 | Hear likewise what he speaketh unto the Ephesians; and consider if ye find not your consciences attainted as culpable of this that followeth? |
37848 | How art thou therefore converted into naughtiness? |
37848 | How shall the old leaven, which is sin, be purged away, that from day to day with your uttermost endeavours is increased? |
37848 | If I shall but live to see that day, how sweet will be the wounds which I shall then either receive or give? |
37848 | If ye set and apply what is lame or languishing, is it not evil? |
37848 | In the dispute, Dabutius said to Merlin:"You fool, do you presume to quarrel with me? |
37848 | In the eighth year there was a great slaughter on both sides, at a place called Wodnesbyrg[ Wemborow? |
37848 | Is not a ploughman often the father of a soldier, and a soldier of a ploughman? |
37848 | Is then every honest gratification forbidden? |
37848 | Is there any equality in our birth? |
37848 | Is this a fit reward for my services? |
37848 | Know ye not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole mass? |
37848 | Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
37848 | Must your hopes, therefore, always depend upon foreign assistance? |
37848 | Of the daily embassies sent to him by foreign nations, from the Tyrrhenian sea to the farthest end of Ireland? |
37848 | Of what service are these things, but to delude the world with unmeaning trifles? |
37848 | On whom truly shall I cast mine eye, but on the humble poor man, and the contrite in spirit, and him that dreadeth my speeches? |
37848 | Or how have ye observed this that followeth? |
37848 | Or who hath respected this that followeth? |
37848 | Revolve in your minds which of these ye have performed? |
37848 | Shall I cry out unto thee, to what end hast thou given me labours and griefs, to behold misery and impiety?" |
37848 | Shall I ever again see the day when I may be able to reward those according to their deserts who have forsaken me in my distress? |
37848 | Shall I receive the same at your hands, saith our Lord? |
37848 | Shall not fire? |
37848 | Shall there fail from the rock of the field, the snow of Libanus? |
37848 | Some persons have written concerning these Hebudes, that during winter darkness continues for the space of thirty days? |
37848 | Stemrugam, Stonehenge? |
37848 | The boy, going on with his questions, asked the wise men what was in it? |
37848 | The priests have not said, Where is our Lord? |
37848 | The same, four years afterwards, fought with Ceawlin against the Britons, near a place called Berin- byrig[ Banbury?] |
37848 | Then St. Germanus, addressing him, said,"Dost thou believe in the Holy Trinity?" |
37848 | Then the boy said to the king,"Why have your servants brought me hither?" |
37848 | Then the holy man, lifting up his eyes, replied,"What man, when there are stones at hand, lays a foundation with reeds?" |
37848 | There is none who repenteth of his sin, saying, What have I done? |
37848 | This question may be answered by another: Where are now the Assyrians, Parthians, Sarmatians, Celtiberians? |
37848 | Thus therefore saith our Lord, Ask the Gentiles, who hath heard such horrible matters, which the virgin Israel hath too often committed? |
37848 | To whom shall I speak and make protestation that he may hear me? |
37848 | Upon his urging me to make haste and write it quickly, I said to him,"Are you willing that I should write that quotation on some leaf apart? |
37848 | Upon this, the messengers diligently inquired of the mother and the other boys, whether he had had a father? |
37848 | Vortigern inquired of his wise men the cause of this opposition to his undertaking, and of so much useless expense of labour? |
37848 | Was ever the like folly heard of? |
37848 | What are the stones of Ireland better than those of Britain, that our kingdom must be put to this disturbance for them? |
37848 | What are you doing?" |
37848 | What dost thou also, thou lion''s whelp( as the prophet saith), Aurelius Conanus? |
37848 | What faith ought we to keep with them? |
37848 | What further service do I owe you? |
37848 | What happened to David for numbering his people, when the prophet Gad spake unto him in this sort? |
37848 | What has he then done, but raised you from a vassal to be a king? |
37848 | What is this house that ye will erect unto me, and what place shall be found for my resting- place? |
37848 | What more is there to be done than that he make his submission and pay tribute to the Roman state?" |
37848 | What need many words? |
37848 | What one of you( I pray you) doth not seek the field of the reward of iniquity? |
37848 | What shall I say of his repeated expeditions against the pagans, his wars, and incessant occupations of government? |
37848 | What shall I say of the cities and towns which he restored, and of others which he built, where none had been before? |
37848 | What therefore shall be done in her last and final ends? |
37848 | What, hath not one God created us? |
37848 | What, is there not one Father of us all? |
37848 | Where shall we next thy lasting temples raise? |
37848 | Which of you, like James the brother of John, has by the unjust prince been beheaded? |
37848 | Which one of you, I pray, hath with his whole mind so pursued sanctity, that he hath earnestly hastened, as much as in him lay, to fulfil the same? |
37848 | Who else could have encouraged them to make head against the Greeks? |
37848 | Who is he that like Joseph, hath rooted out of his heart the remembrance of an offered injury? |
37848 | Who is so fit to succeed as he? |
37848 | Who shall give water unto my head, and to mine eyes a fountain of tears, and I will day and night bewail the slaughtered of my people? |
37848 | Why do not we kill him, that Vortigern may enjoy his crown? |
37848 | Why do ye break in pieces my people, and grind the faces of the poor? |
37848 | Why do you behold these things with the sleepy eyes of your souls? |
37848 | Why do you delay to restore us to our native country? |
37848 | Why dost thou wilfully heap like a mountain, upon thy kingly shoulders, such a load of sins? |
37848 | Why dost thou wilfully kindle against thyself the eternal fires of hell? |
37848 | Why dost thou, in place of enemies, desperately stab thyself with thine own sword, with thine own javelin? |
37848 | Why standest thou astonished, O thou butcher of thine own soul? |
37848 | Why therefore doth every one despise his brother?" |
37848 | Why therefore is not the wound of the daughter of my people healed? |
37848 | Will you suffer these effeminate wretches to escape? |
37848 | Woe be unto you that are profound in heart, to conceal counsel from our Lord, whose works are in darkness, and they say, who seeth us? |
37848 | [ 238] Why will ye still inquire, adding iniquity? |

37848 | and fire will pass forth from out of his wrath, and who shall extinguish it? |
37848 | and hast honoured thy children more than me, that thou mightest bless them from the beginning in all sacrifices in my presence? |
37848 | and the house of the wicked hoarding up unjust treasures, and with injury unrighteousness? |
37848 | and thou who killest, shalt not thyself be killed? |
37848 | asked the king;"I am called Ambrose( in British Embresguletic),"returned the boy; and in answer to the king''s question,"What is your origin?" |
37848 | do so many thousands of you fly one man? |
37848 | expect from such belly beasts? |
37848 | in offering on mine altar polluted bread: and ye have said, Wherein have we polluted it? |
37848 | it shall brandishing shine, and who will not fear it? |
37848 | it shall thunder, and who will not shake with dread? |
37848 | of the royal halls and chambers, wonderfully erected by his command, with stone and wood? |
37848 | of the royal vills constructed of stone, removed from their old site, and handsomely rebuilt by the king''s command in more fitting places? |
37848 | or by what art can he remain there and improve his cause? |
37848 | or can the waters be drawn dry that gush out cold and flowing? |
37848 | or how dost thou say to thy brother, suffer me to cast the mote out of thine eye, and behold the beam remaineth still in thine own eye?" |
37848 | or shall any one quench out the fire when the straw is burning? |
37848 | or shall not my soul be revenged upon such a nation?" |
37848 | or with so small a body of men vanquished so numerous and powerful an army, and taken their king prisoner in the engagement? |
37848 | our Lord God will send out evils, and who is he that shall repress them? |
37848 | shall I not visit these men, saith our Lord? |
37848 | shall any man repulse a lion that hungereth in the wood? |
37848 | shall the holy flesh take away thy maliciousness from thee, wherein thou hast glorified? |
37848 | unfold our fate, And say what region is our destined seat? |
37848 | when shall it be lawful for my carcass to enjoy them? |
37848 | when shall they be let loose at me? |
37848 | when shall those beasts come the workers of my salvation, which are for me prepared? |
37848 | whither fly ye, base wretches? |
37848 | who shall live( as a certain one before us hath said) when such things are done by our countrymen, if perchance they may be any where accomplished? |
37848 | who will grant me in the wilderness the inn of passengers? |
37848 | why did you ever advance me to an unstable felicity, since the punishment of lost happiness is greater than the sense of present misery? |
37848 | why do you hearken unto them with the deaf ears of your senses? |
37848 | why therefore hath my people said, we have departed, we will come no more unto thee? |
37848 | why therefore is this people in Jerusalem, with a contentious aversion alienated? |
37848 | will our Lord have burnt offerings or oblations, and not rather that the voice of our Lord should be obeyed? |
39875 | And do n''t they ever object, or make a commotion in the shop? |
39875 | And what are those Venetian- like balconies, all hung with greenery and flowers? |
39875 | And what,continues the crushed tourist,"is that turreted, buttressed, red- brick edifice? |
39875 | Did y''ever see sich fine plants? |
39875 | Have you some nice, new,_ good_ novels? |
39875 | Here, where the pulses of London beat, Someone strives with the Presence Grey-- Ah, is it victory or defeat? 39875 How long have these rooms been vacant?" |
39875 | I met a preacher there I knew, and said:''Ill and o''erwork''d, how fare you in this scene?'' 39875 Is any one,"asks a recent writer,"ever young in the Borough? |
39875 | Oranges and Lemons, Say the bells of St. Clement''s; You owe me ten shillings, Say the bells of St. Helen''s; When will you pay me? 39875 Poor Greek architecture,"he adds compassionately,"what is it doing in such a climate?" |
39875 | Queer''at,retorted the conductor reprovingly;"it may be a queer''at, but what would you give for the''ed- piece that''s inside of it?" |
39875 | The hurrying people go their way, Pause and jostle and pass and greet; For life, for death, are they treading, say, Straw in the street? |
39875 | There is,says Thackeray,"an old Hall, a beautiful specimen of the architecture of James''s time; an old Hall? |

39875 | --_Shakespeare._ What book has ever been written, nay, has ever attempted to be written, about the general architecture of London? |
39875 | --_Spenser._ Among the by- ways that open suddenly out of the highways of London, are there any more attractive than the Inns of Court? |

39875 | A little boy-- one"of the streets streety,"once held poor pussy while the quietus-- of prussic acid-- was administered:"Wo n''t I jest?" |
39875 | Ai n''t_ that_ somethin''?" |
39875 | And do you sit here all day, and never see the green woods and the trees and flowers and the charming country?'' |
39875 | And do you think that he''s always quite_ safe_?" |
39875 | And does not M. Taine pour the vials of his wrath on to the great river Palace of Somerset House, with its"blackened porticoes filled with soot"? |
39875 | And he drew my attention to the quaint white- washed walls of the inn, made hideous by Japanese fans and cheap paper rosettes,& c."You are English?" |
39875 | And how many people, in the whirl and rush of London, even_ look_ at the surrounding buildings at all? |
39875 | And the charming, curly- haired boys-- the pretty and pathetic Savoyard, with his beloved monkey in a red coat-- who does not know them? |
39875 | And was that a barge being towed up stream, or was it not, rather, a boat crossing to the nearer shore, with its unknown, saintly passenger? |
39875 | And what a strange and indecipherable"crypto- porticus"would the"Twopenny Tube"prove to some future Middleton of the ages? |
39875 | And what is left, one may ask, of our National Valhalla, for the great names of a future age? |
39875 | And what would the bright particular spirits of the present day now think of such irreverent, such high- handed proceedings? |
39875 | And who could work among the London poor without, at least, something of the feeling so beautifully expressed in Matthew Arnold''s well- known lines? |
39875 | And why, some may ask, is London what it is? |
39875 | And yet, looking at the matter calmly and without prejudice,--are London stones, indeed, so unworthy, so poor, so inglorious? |
39875 | Are not the vicissitudes, too, of theatres as striking and as dramatic in their way as those of other historic houses? |
39875 | Are picture- galleries, museums, and such- like treasures of the metropolis, to be described as London''s Highways, or as its Byways? |
39875 | Brontë_:"_ Villette._""And who cries out on crowd and mart? |

39875 | CHAPTER V THE TOWER_ Prince Edward_:"Did Julius Caesar build that place, my lord?" |
39875 | Can such things be, you wonder, in the London of our day? |
39875 | Chelsea and Kensington in the past have had many glories; who can say what splendid fortune may yet be theirs? |
39875 | Chemists may tell you that it is merely carbon, a product of the soot, but what does that matter? |
39875 | Could one imagine a greater contrast than these two Cheyne Row households? |
39875 | Could these exquisitely pondered buildings have been, indeed, works of the nineteenth century? |
39875 | Do I let them do it?... |
39875 | Do not the more or less prosaic Government buildings appear to be the"cloud- capt towers and gorgeous palaces"of some dream of Oriental splendour? |
39875 | Do people stay here in the summer? |
39875 | Do they not haunt the city gardens that lie behind Queen Square, and coo sweetly all through the London spring and summer? |
39875 | Does Regent''s Park wish to sit tamely under insult? |
39875 | Does he desire to see pictures? |
39875 | Does not even the plain inscription,"Poeta Inglese, Shelly,"(_ sic_) lend an added glamour to the Lung''Arno of Pisa? |
39875 | Does not the children''s rhyme( there is ever deep reason in childish rhymes) run thus? |
39875 | Does not"Little Britain"differ widely from its neighbouring Clerkenwell? |
39875 | Does your mind require stimulating by the study of Greek art? |
39875 | Else why is it that so many beautiful things are produced there? |
39875 | Even a rainy day of London greyness-- what does the poet''s eye see in it? |
39875 | Even grass will grow in shut- in, walled Bloomsbury gardens; it may, indeed, sometimes require treating as an"annual"; but what of that? |
39875 | For twenty years it has found its voice, ay, and its pence, too, here.... Is it to continue to find them, or not? |
39875 | From the West to the East is a wide difference; yet, between the two, how many minor differences? |
39875 | From"nudging"he proceeded to"squeezing"; and, finally, could it be fancy, or was it an arm that began ominously to encircle her waist? |
39875 | Generals and statesmen went by, and a glittering cavalcade of English and Continental princes, and the whole procession was a preparation-- for what? |
39875 | Had they books, journals, writing materials? |
39875 | Has it not been a"silent witness"of the pageants of the magnificent Pharaohs of the Eighteenth Dynasty? |

39875 | It is not to be denied that the visitor is often sadly in need of some guide:"Are all these pictures hand- painted?" |
39875 | It may be partly fancy; yet, is not this often the effect produced by the"Surrey side"? |
39875 | It takes an oldish man to remember the comet of 1811. Who remembers Paul Veronese, nine generations since? |
39875 | M. Taine, we know, did not hold this view; is it, indeed, to be expected from any one but a true, a born Londoner? |
39875 | Mr. Gladstone''s Life, for instance? |

39875 | Then, in tones of remonstrance, he demanded:''Are you contented with such a life?'' |
39875 | Then, it''s,''Would you mind if I take a photograph?'' |
39875 | These treasure- houses of London,--what wealth do they not represent,--what unimagined riches do they not contain? |
39875 | They belonged, in 1754, to the Dowgate family; and who were they? |

39875 | What approach such as this can Paris offer? |
39875 | What are the special qualities that constitute"a good shopper"? |
39875 | What can be more dully monotonous, more unromantic, than the row of brick and stucco house- fronts that face the average large square or street? |
39875 | What chance has Italian cupola, Doric portico, Gothic gable, so crowded and overpowered in the busy mart of men and of things? |
39875 | What chance, among such, have the poor wandering ghosts of a famous past? |

39875 | Why are the window panes, apparently, never, never, cleaned? |
39875 | Why is the Jewish quarter so invariably concerned with old clothes? |
39875 | Why should we, the travellers of the world, who so admire other cities, so persistently pour obloquy on our own? |
39875 | Why was not Winchester-- so important in Roman times, and, later, the capital of Wessex-- preferred? |
39875 | Why was this spot specially chosen as the capital? |
39875 | Why were not Southampton or Bristol-- apparently equally well placed for trade-- favoured? |
39875 | Why, indeed, should our artists all flock to Venice to paint? |
39875 | Why, one reflects, is there a kind of tradition in such things? |
39875 | Why, who_ would_ pay house rent, especially in London, if he or she could help it? |
39875 | Would not either of these be noticed, if"planted out"in an Italian valley? |
39875 | Yet, their dirt and desolation notwithstanding, can we not almost find it in our hearts to regret these London byways of a past age? |
39875 | _ Gloucester_:"Why, what should you fear?" |
39875 | _ Tantæne animis cælestibus iræ?_ Among the works of the Lombard School is a picture by Parmigiano,_ The Vision of St. Jerome_( No. |
39875 | and how many millions will follow it in the future, when these of to- day shall have finished their course? |
39875 | and the immaculate Mayfair from the more doubtful Bayswater? |
39875 | and what were their beginnings? |
39875 | can ye keep Your eyes from teares, and see the marble weep? |
39875 | even as regards the eternal cats and the equally eternal"laundresses"? |
39875 | he went on, with a pleased smile:"ah, then, you know my place in London, Scott''s?" |
39875 | many galleries of priceless works of art are within a stone''s throw, free, ready, waiting only to be seen; does he prefer realism and life? |
39875 | or the Eastern magnificence and opulence of some of the Park Lane mansions? |
39875 | or"Where did you get that''at?" |
39875 | or''Have I your leave to sit in the yard and sketch?'' |
39875 | or, indeed, from outsiders? |
39875 | the dignified Georgian spaciousness in the old mansions of Bedford Square? |
39875 | the galleries of the British Museum are open to you; or"Dost thou love pictures? |
39875 | the gorgeous interior of the sombre houses of Bruton Street? |
39875 | the immense library of the British Museum offers him all its treasures; does he merely wish to perambulate vaguely? |
39875 | the picture- galleries of Piccadilly and Mayfair? |
39875 | the quiet nooks of the Temple invite him; is it solitary study that his soul craves? |
39875 | to bend its back to the tyrant?" |
39875 | to lie down to be crushed? |
39875 | who would grudge you that harmless and unfailing consolation? |
39875 | who would not be with thee in May? |
39875 | why, the Mint, sir, the Mint, sir, is known for it; you''ve''erd on it your ways, ai n''t you?" |
10990 | ''Shall I lay perjury upon my soul?'' |
10990 | ''What are the French doing before Rome, and what will they be doing after they have gained possession of it?'' |
10990 | ''What is a treaty?'' |
10990 | ''What, not mentioned? |
10990 | After such unqualified praise upon Russia, and after her defection, is not such language, I ask, inconsistent, absurd, and preposterous? |
10990 | Again he must ask, what was the object of our pursuit in conjunction with the other Powers against France? |
10990 | Again he must ask, what was the object of the war? |
10990 | Again:''England might act in this manner: being able, ought she so to act? |
10990 | Aggrandizement? |
10990 | All at once the gentleman said,''Did you notice anything particular about the bread at breakfast?'' |
10990 | And can you suppose, that if peace were made, he has not power to make it be observed by the people of France? |
10990 | And how? |
10990 | And is it in such a quarrel that we would mix ourselves? |
10990 | And now, I ask, what are the consequences of the just influence of England in the councils of Europe being lowered? |
10990 | And on a war thus originating, can it be doubted, by an English House of Commons, whether the aggression was on the part of this country or of France? |
10990 | And what defence have we? |
10990 | And what happened? |
10990 | And what is the answer of Lord Bloomfield? |
10990 | And what is the conduct of the Government? |
10990 | And what is the obligation of this alliance? |
10990 | And what security had Denmark? |
10990 | And what was the sort of language used by them in order to bring about that result? |
10990 | And what were the explanations they offered on these different grounds of offence? |
10990 | And why should they not? |
10990 | And why? |
10990 | Are not all her violent invectives against regular governments come into disesteem? |
10990 | Are not my family committed irrevocably to the fortunes of this country? |
10990 | Are there weighty inconveniences which enjoin discretion, which show the necessity of secrecy? |
10990 | Are they not founded upon reason? |
10990 | Are we talking of a stranger of whom we have heard nothing? |
10990 | Are you distracted in your brain to talk of our going to Turin? |
10990 | Are you mad? |
10990 | As against France alone, her task might not be more difficult than before; but is it only with France that she would now have to contend? |
10990 | Aye, but what was his position then? |
10990 | Britain? |
10990 | But did the House remember the pathetic appeal of the Solicitor- General? |
10990 | But he made out his case in this way:''Take the island of Cyprus? |
10990 | But how did Her Majesty''s Government act towards Denmark in similar circumstances? |
10990 | But how? |
10990 | But if this security is effected by maiming France, does the right honourable gentleman think that the people of France would submit to it? |
10990 | But if we were disposed at once to act upon the guarantee contained in that treaty, what state of circumstances does it contemplate? |
10990 | But in what manner was this chaos brought into order? |
10990 | But in what, then, lies the difference between the two treaties? |
10990 | But is that all the ground for the proceeding? |
10990 | But is the absence of inducement and incitement all? |
10990 | But is this the actual state of the present question? |
10990 | But it may be asked, did nobody gain? |
10990 | But let us see what is this Batoum of which you have heard so much? |
10990 | But no such thing; not one drop could be spilt, and why? |
10990 | But on what conditions did the German Powers accept it? |
10990 | But the question was, whether it was just or politic to make this a ground of war? |
10990 | But was it an object of sound policy to bring a war upon our hands, of which it was clear that we must bear all the burden? |
10990 | But was there anything in the general conduct of Great Britain at Verona, which lowered, as has been asserted, the character of England? |
10990 | But was this all? |
10990 | But what Empire has not? |
10990 | But what did the two words''Liberty''and''Empire''mean in a Roman mouth? |
10990 | But what do they do? |
10990 | But what does all this come to, gentlemen? |
10990 | But what has happened? |
10990 | But what is Rome now? |
10990 | But what signifies to France the loss of such renown as victory bestows? |
10990 | But where is the testimony in favour of the effect which this intimation produced? |
10990 | But who are the Jacobins? |
10990 | But who is the person that applies for this subsidy? |
10990 | But why did the Ministers press a vote, when they were unable to give the House satisfaction upon these points? |
10990 | But why did we make them say it? |
10990 | But, at the same time, what was the conduct of the Secretary of State? |
10990 | By what means? |
10990 | Can any verbal distinctions, any evasions whatever, possibly explain away this public infamy? |
10990 | Can it be accident that produced them? |
10990 | Can you name a country in the world that would have stood that? |
10990 | Can you name a single country in the world for the freedom of which the modern Prussian has ever sacrificed a single life? |
10990 | Can you suppose that Persia, in that state of things, would have been ready to march against Russia for the sake of assisting Poland? |
10990 | Could such despots love the free constitution of this country? |
10990 | Could we prove our caution more than by withholding that assurance, which would at once have set France at ease? |
10990 | Did his conduct and connexions here afford no such ground? |
10990 | Did she challenge Germany? |
10990 | Did she send an ultimatum to Germany? |
10990 | Did that reservation still exist? |
10990 | Did you forget the services which he had rendered to Spain, or did you imagine that Spain had forgotten them? |
10990 | Do I not come of the same English stock? |
10990 | Do we not know what constructions have been put in this country, on the coronation oath, as to its operation on what is called the Catholic Question? |
10990 | Do you not think he feels it? |
10990 | Do you see in the management of those affairs that capacity, and especially that kind of capacity that is adequate to the occasion? |
10990 | Do you want the Russians to get Constantinople instead of Adrianople? |
10990 | Does it not read like madness that men, thirty years ago, were frantic at the idea of the people of Birmingham having a £10 franchise? |
10990 | Does my honourable and learned friend believe that the policy of Elizabeth would in that case have been the same? |
10990 | Fighting in Spanish ranks, should we not have to point our bayonets against Spanish bosoms? |
10990 | First, was the object of Ministers a right object? |
10990 | For what would be the consequence? |
10990 | Had she ever inflicted any wrongs upon Germany which the Kaiser was bound to redress? |
10990 | Had the ratifications of the treaties of 1831 been accompanied by any reserve? |
10990 | Has not France renounced and reprobated those Jacobin principles, which created her so many enemies? |
10990 | Have I not already accounted for that suggestion? |
10990 | Have they estimated the burdens of a Peninsular War? |
10990 | Have we so soon forgotten the course and progress of the last war? |
10990 | Have you any of those neat little Treasury £1 notes? |
10990 | Have you any £5 notes about you? |
10990 | Have you read the Kaiser''s speeches? |
10990 | Having asserted that principle to the world, what did we do? |
10990 | He asked whether the measures which Ministers were pursuing were likely to preserve the peace of Europe? |
10990 | How could he revoke it? |
10990 | How dare you criticize a Customs official? |
10990 | How did Servia behave? |
10990 | How did they know the peace of Europe would be preserved? |
10990 | How should we have received that intimation? |
10990 | How was that revolution procured? |
10990 | How, indeed, can I, any more than any of you, be un- English and anti- national? |
10990 | How, then, can we define these principles, when persons who would now disavow them fall by some fatality into an unavoidable acknowledgement of them? |
10990 | I have given you a narrative of the manner in which our affairs have been conducted, and now I ask you what is your opinion? |
10990 | If Europe is no better, and the people of England have been so much worse, who has benefited by the new system of foreign policy? |
10990 | If ever a criticism is made on his ambiguous conduct the noble lord asks me,''What is your policy?'' |
10990 | If he is opposed at any time in his career, what is his appeal? |
10990 | If so, ought this important point to be concealed? |
10990 | If so, was it consistent with our policy? |
10990 | If this, then, be the case, what danger can be apprehended? |
10990 | If we say nothing at this moment, what is France to do with her fleet in the Mediterranean? |
10990 | In the first place, can any man doubt that they could have taken Rome long ago if they had not been averse to the effusion of blood? |
10990 | Is he connected with the soil, or with the habits, the affections, or the prejudices of the country? |
10990 | Is it not his interest to make peace with us? |
10990 | Is it not plain, then, that we have been guilty of no violation of duty towards the weaker party? |
10990 | Is it that we will in no case treat with Buonaparte? |
10990 | Is it then necessary to examine what were the terms of that ultimatum, with which we refused to comply? |
10990 | Is it, then, sufficient to say, let monarchy be restored, and let peace be given to all Europe? |
10990 | Is it, then, to be endured, that the Minister shall come down and ask for a subsidy under such circumstances? |
10990 | Is not that a fine thing? |
10990 | Is not whatever property I may have depending as much as yours is depending upon the good government of our common fatherland? |
10990 | Is that an expense to be incurred again, without some peremptory and unavoidable call of duty, of honour, or of interest? |
10990 | Is there anything in his conduct and character to incline us to listen to him? |
10990 | Is, then, military despotism that which we are accustomed to consider as a stable form of government? |
10990 | It may be said,''Will you allow these German Powers to act as they please? |
10990 | King James, we all remember, asked Bishop Neale if he might not take his subjects''money without the authority of Parliament? |
10990 | Little nations? |
10990 | Lord Charles Beresford: What is the date of that? |
10990 | May I tell you, in a simple parable, what I think this war is doing for us? |
10990 | Might not any advice, however unpalatable, have been offered by such a benefactor, without liability to offence or misconstruction? |
10990 | Now is that a question for which England would be justified in going to war with Russia? |
10990 | Now, gentlemen, I go back to the foreign policy of the Liberal party, and I ask, what has that done? |
10990 | Now, what had happened to Persia? |
10990 | Of what consequence was it to any man, whether he was plundered by a man with a white feather in his hat, or by one with a nightcap on his head? |
10990 | On the other hand, would it have been advisable for us to precipitate Portugal into the war? |
10990 | On what was such conduct founded, but on Jacobinical principles? |
10990 | One is-- Would our interference bring this war to a conclusion? |
10990 | Secondly, did they pursue it in a right way? |
10990 | Shall Caesar send a lie?'' |
10990 | Sir Edward Goschen proceeded to put a very pertinent question: I questioned his Excellency about the French colonies-- What are the French colonies? |
10990 | Such a specimen of sinking in policy? |
10990 | That is at the bottom of all their demands when they ask,''What is your policy?'' |
10990 | That power is Russia; and how can you blame these people, if in such circumstances, they are disposed to say, Russia is our friend? |
10990 | The Earl of Derby: May I ask the noble Earl if that decision was to be taken during the occupation of the province by the German troops? |
10990 | The Russian Slav? |
10990 | The burning and massacring, the shooting down of harmless people-- why? |
10990 | The declaration of that war was the seizure of Savoy, by an invading army; and on what ground? |
10990 | The first question, then, was, Had Belgium and Holland signed the treaty on which the execution of the other depends? |
10990 | The question has been repeatedly asked, was this money to be ultimately paid or not? |
10990 | Then the question came to this-- Was England to undertake the conquest of Portugal for Donna Maria or not? |
10990 | Then what was to be done? |
10990 | Then why the new condition in the second convention? |
10990 | To what are gentlemen reduced in support of it? |
10990 | To whom would we disguise it? |
10990 | Treaties? |
10990 | Was I not born upon the same soil? |
10990 | Was ever there a more wretched shift, a more hollow pretence, than this? |
10990 | Was it so, when Russia ratified with a reservation? |
10990 | Was it the policy of England to prevent the dismemberment of the Portuguese Empire? |
10990 | Was it to be tolerated that a Power not at war with us should see a force collected in England sufficient to excite apprehensions? |
10990 | Was it to make a partition of France, as they did of Poland? |
10990 | Was it to restore the ancient tyranny and despotism of that nation? |
10990 | Was not that a terrible proposition? |
10990 | Was she preparing to make war on Germany? |
10990 | Was that an occasion of a_ casus belli_? |
10990 | Was there ever an instance in which Parliament had been called upon to vote public money, arising out of negotiations, whilst they were yet pending? |
10990 | Was this to be tolerated? |
10990 | Was this truckling to France? |
10990 | We are in the presence of a European conflagration; can anybody set limits to the consequences that may arise out of it? |
10990 | We asked who was to be the Sovereign of these two Duchies which were to be thus governed? |
10990 | We have been asked in the course of this debate, do you think you can impose monarchy upon France, against the will of the nation? |
10990 | Well, Sir, I ask again whether there are two interpretations to be put upon such observations as these? |
10990 | Well, my Lords, but the question comes as to what, at the end of the Conference, is our position, and what will be our course? |
10990 | Well, what did Her Majesty''s Government do? |
10990 | Well, why? |
10990 | Were the French to have a constitution, such as the right honourable gentleman( Mr. Burke) was likely to applaud? |
10990 | Were there no warnings against danger? |
10990 | Were we to forget that the King of Prussia encouraged the Brabanters to revolt, and then left them to their fate? |
10990 | Were we to forget the recent conduct with respect to Poland? |
10990 | Were we to forget the taking of Dantzic and Thorn? |
10990 | Were we to take the form of it from that exercised by the Emperor, or that of the King of Prussia? |
10990 | What about England? |
10990 | What ails you? |
10990 | What answer did the Russian Slav give? |
10990 | What are her excuses? |
10990 | What are its characters? |
10990 | What are they made of? |
10990 | What are they worth? |
10990 | What are we to get in return? |
10990 | What business had German soldiers there at all? |
10990 | What can diplomatic intervention do now? |
10990 | What conditions could be made when we are in ignorance of our real state? |
10990 | What could be done to bring about an amicable understanding? |
10990 | What course had the Government pursued with respect to Greece? |
10990 | What did it mean as regards Belgium? |
10990 | What did that proposal amount to? |
10990 | What did they do in 1870? |
10990 | What did they do? |
10990 | What do we know as to what may be going on in Downing Street at this moment? |
10990 | What does that amount to? |
10990 | What from that moment was the situation of M. Chauvelin? |
10990 | What had Captain Codrington to do with the going out or coming in of the Ministry? |
10990 | What had she done? |
10990 | What has been the fate of those who were enthroned at the Revolution, and whose supremacy has been for so long a period undisputed among us? |
10990 | What has been the general result, what is the grand total, what is the profit, what is the upshot, what is the balance at the end? |
10990 | What has my honourable friend said? |
10990 | What has occurred since? |
10990 | What has she done? |
10990 | What history in the category of nations is unblotted? |
10990 | What interpretation could M. Hall place on that interview? |
10990 | What is her other excuse? |
10990 | What is it we are fighting for? |
10990 | What is left? |
10990 | What is our interest in maintaining the neutrality of Belgium? |
10990 | What is that country? |
10990 | What is the immediate moral effect of those exaggerated statements of the separate interest of England? |
10990 | What is the result? |
10990 | What is the state of Europe at this moment? |
10990 | What is the state of Europe produced by this management of our affairs? |
10990 | What is their crime? |
10990 | What is their defence? |
10990 | What is their demand? |
10990 | What more could you expect? |
10990 | What other policy is there before the House? |
10990 | What remains? |
10990 | What reply should we have given to that Belgian appeal? |
10990 | What shall I say, then, on the case of Portugal? |
10990 | What then was the meaning of the answer to that proposition,--that,''_ come what might_, His Majesty would be no party to such a project''? |
10990 | What to her is the forgoing of one sprig of laurel more in addition to the accumulated honours of her victorious career? |
10990 | What was his false pretence? |
10990 | What was it doing there? |
10990 | What was our own attitude? |
10990 | What was that? |
10990 | What was that? |
10990 | What was the answer given by Bismarck? |
10990 | What was the course of Her Majesty''s Government at this critical conjuncture? |
10990 | What was the motive power behind them? |
10990 | What was the opinion of Spain? |
10990 | What was the state of Turkey then? |
10990 | What was to prevent Russia and France from making a similar use of our ports? |
10990 | What were the Austrian demands? |
10990 | What were the dangers which threatened the peace of Europe? |
10990 | What were we to do under those circumstances? |
10990 | What will be our position then? |
10990 | What would have been the position of Great Britain to- day in the face of that spectacle if we had assented to this infamous proposal? |
10990 | What, gentlemen, was Rome? |
10990 | What, then, is the inference I draw from all that I have now stated? |
10990 | What, then, was the nature of this system? |
10990 | Where, then, was the justification of the assertion that the two treaties were founded upon the same consideration? |
10990 | While Lord Wodehouse was repairing to his post, did the Secretary of State in the least falter in his tone? |
10990 | Who but your commanders and envoys are to blame for the necessity under which they placed the King''s troops of fighting a battle on the 6th of April? |
10990 | Who can doubt the valour of Servia, when she undertook to tackle her newspaper editors? |
10990 | Who does not know that, in diplomatic correspondence, under that suavity of expression is implied an''or'', which imports another alternative? |
10990 | Who listened to the cry? |
10990 | Why did they not perform the obligation? |
10990 | Why did you neglect so happy an opportunity, and leave unemployed so fit an agent? |
10990 | Why did you not employ the Duke of Wellington for this purpose? |
10990 | Why is our honour as a country involved in this war? |
10990 | Why not give notice openly of our intentions? |
10990 | Why not make the instructions public? |
10990 | Why then does she not notify to Spain what has been done, and what it is proposed to do_ in that mediatory sense( en aquel sentido__ mediador_)? |
10990 | Why was she so cold, and ultimately in the painful position of declining to act with us? |
10990 | Why, gentlemen, what had been done by the Liberal Government, which, forsooth, attended to nothing but pounds, shillings, and pence? |
10990 | Why, then, force the House now to express an opinion? |
10990 | Why, what had Sir W. Parker to do with that? |
10990 | Why? |
10990 | Will nothing satisfy you? |
10990 | With respect to Verona, then, what remains of accusation against the Government? |
10990 | With this assumption, I proceed to examine, whether the papers on the table show that the best means were employed for attaining the given object? |
10990 | With whom have they been at war since the period of this declaration? |
10990 | Without giving military aid could you recover Schleswig and Holstein, and even Jutland from the Austrian and Prussian forces? |
10990 | Would she have resisted more fiercely in September? |
10990 | Yes, and what are we to get in return for the betrayal of our friends and the dishonour of our obligations? |
10990 | and if she ought, has she acted so? |
10990 | friends that the money might be due from England; but to whom ought it to be paid? |
10990 | gentleman had asked what right we had to stop them on the high seas? |
10990 | member asks: What if both these Powers with whom we are making this treaty should combine against the independence of Belgium? |
10990 | member think of the alliance which the King of Belgium was now about to form? |
10990 | member think would be the effect of a marriage with one of the daughters of the King of the French? |
10990 | member, ought England to make the payment of her portion of the loan? |
10990 | no chastisements for extravagance? |
10990 | no doubts-- no complaints-- no charges of rashness and impolicy? |
10990 | not a word about the new institutions?'' |
10990 | offering the surrender of all that it had acquired, in order to obtain-- what? |
10990 | or that Ministers of the new King would renounce them? |
10990 | or was it to be formed by the lady who so mildly conducted the affairs of Russia? |
10990 | or were they all to lay their heads together, and by the assistance of the Pope, dictate a form of government to France? |
10990 | or whether the manifest aggression on the part of France was the result of anything but the principles which characterize the French revolution? |
56157 | ?--Professor Blackie''s Poem on Glencoe, 33 CHAPTER VII. 56157 ?--Professor Blackie''s Poem on Glencoe. |
56157 | Albert, old fellow,we remarked,"the boat, you see, is adrift; what''s to be done?" |
56157 | And is''Speach''good, then, Donald? |
56157 | But what is your present work, Willie? |
56157 | But what,we inquired,"do they make of them in Glasgow?" |
56157 | But, mother, the witch that lives down i''the glen? |
56157 | Is it a common opinion that such is the case, and do you believe it yourself? |
56157 | The man is dead and buried; what watching should he have to do? |
56157 | To put down what? |
56157 | Well, Nether Lochaber, my boy,he seemed inclined to say,"how are you? |
56157 | Well, Willie,we exclaimed, as we came up with him,"what in the world are you doing in the glen to- day, and where''s your pack? |
56157 | What can be cleaner, fresher, fragranter for bedding, whether for horse or cow, than these nice green ferns? 56157 What do you call him?" |
56157 | What is the value of your dog? |
56157 | What particular object has the spirit in watching? |
56157 | What''s his name, Donald? |
56157 | Why so? |
56157 | Will you allow me, sir, to put down some worms in your place? |
56157 | ''N so dh''èirich a phiaid gu grad,''S thubhairt i''s i''s tailceadh a bonn,''An tusa sin a''d mheall air stop Nuair a bhi''s do cheod- cheann trom? |
56157 | ), published ten or a dozen years before Grays ode, occurs this line--"Is it for thee the linnet pours his throat?" |
56157 | Among other things he could say,''Well, who are you?'' |
56157 | And how fares it with our feathered favourites, the wild birds, in these hard times? |
56157 | And suppose one wanted a"Lochaber axe,"where would he most naturally look for it but in Lochaber? |
56157 | And talking of birds, what does the reader think the Prussians are up to now? |
56157 | And what after all, the reader may ask, brought the black- backed gull circling and screaming over your heads? |
56157 | And while on such subjects, let us ask the reader by the way if he has noticed that cocks do n''t crow now- a- days as they used to do? |
56157 | Are glanders incurable? |
56157 | B.--"Did you indeed? |
56157 | But have you ever seen the merlin or merlin falcon( Falco æsalon), perform the same feat? |
56157 | But how at mid- winter stands the fact? |
56157 | But what has all this, it may be asked, to do with Mr. Frank Buckland and his proverb that"Dog will not eat dog"? |
56157 | But what matters it? |
56157 | Co sid air an làr? |
56157 | Could it be owing to any cyclical meteorological changes, or to anything anomalous in the order of the seasons? |
56157 | Did n''t he sleep every night at our own bedroom door? |
56157 | Did n''t these circles, it was argued, appear in the course of a single night? |
56157 | Did such a planet really exist, and if it did, could this daring Frenchman find it? |
56157 | Did you ever, by the way, good reader, look at an apple tree in full blossom on a calm, dewy night by candle- light? |
56157 | Did you ever, reader, crack a nut? |
56157 | Does he abuse his salmon? |
56157 | Does the fieldfare breed in Scotland? |
56157 | Fish in the pool? |
56157 | His usual pace of a good eight miles an hour is now hardly over five, and what in such a case shall you do? |
56157 | How came it there? |
56157 | How do you know, the reader may ask, for it was calm and quiet enough during your visit on Friday? |
56157 | How many thousands and thousands of years ago lived that flint- working race, who, in view of the extreme slowness of geological changes, can say? |
56157 | How were the eggs broken? |
56157 | How, then, about your Arctic sea- birds? |
56157 | How, then, do we account for it? |
56157 | I warrant it is my poor brother, Wat; who knows what these wild Irishes may have done to him?" |
56157 | I wish to have a look at your bundle of ballads?" |
56157 | If so, has fresh water alone this effect, or is it necessary that the animal should be some time immersed in salt water? |
56157 | Is it curable? |
56157 | Is it for thee the linnet pours his throat? |
56157 | Is the specimen in Mr. M''Leay''s possession male or female? |
56157 | Is thine alone the seed that strews the plain? |
56157 | It was all in Gaelic, of course, but we give the substance in English:--"You were at the funeral on the island the other day, sir?" |
56157 | More good? |
56157 | Nor was the superstition unknown to Shakspeare; was there anything unknown to him? |
56157 | Not liking to be thus watched and followed, the raven turned rapidly round and sternly exclaimed,''Well, who are you?'' |
56157 | Now, does the reader know what an inch of rain means? |
56157 | O, Thomson, void of sense as well as reason; Why in our ears such arrant nonsense drum? |
56157 | Peadair agus Pàl, Co air a bhith''s an aire''nochd? |
56157 | Publicly and privately has this query been put to us-- Is it unusual to hear a pigeon cooing at midnight, and the owl hooting in bright noonday? |
56157 | Query-- Granted that the hedgehog does not eat eggs, then what was he doing in possession of these three different nests? |
56157 | Say, what may this portend?'' |
56157 | Shall the intrepid explorer be restored to us? |
56157 | Shrug''st thou, malice? |
56157 | Snails? |
56157 | The mother was horrified; the father in a rage asked what the deuce she meant by spitting in his son''s face? |
56157 | Thine the full harvest of the golden year? |
56157 | This nonsense apart, however, the question remains, What business had a Spanish dollar in the bottom of the Sound of Mull? |
56157 | Upon whom shall this night''s vigil rest? |
56157 | Was n''t he regularly and well fed? |
56157 | We have called the merlin an evil- doer: are we entitled so to call him? |
56157 | We thought, as we sat alone in the midst of that magnificent storm, of him( was it John Foster?) |
56157 | We wonder if such a thing as a"Jeddart staff"could be had to- day in its proper locality? |
56157 | What animal killed the chickens, if it was not the hedgehog? |
56157 | What brought them there? |
56157 | What could the perturbations of Uranus mean? |
56157 | What could they now be after? |
56157 | What could this swell and surge, troubling a loch otherwise calm as a mill- pond, mean? |
56157 | What is the colour of its plumage-- pure white, or slightly barred and mottled with brown? |
56157 | What says the reader? |
56157 | What were his rushes for then? |
56157 | Where''s the need, we ask ourselves, for so much hurry and bustle? |
56157 | Who for thy table feeds the wanton fawn, For him as kindly spread the flowery lawn; Is it for thee the lark ascends and sings? |
56157 | Who is that that I see on the floor? |
56157 | Why should n''t everybody sow in February or early March as we do, and have their ingathering in August, generally our best and driest month? |
56157 | You probably glued its keel to a piece of wood or something of that kind?" |
56157 | and which the way? |
56157 | beetles? |
56157 | blazing on his shield, and who shall dare to stop his fierce career against the perpetrators of the foulest deed on record? |
56157 | for how can this bird give us any true information concerning our march, which could not foresee how to save himself? |
56157 | how?" |
56157 | the reader exclaims interrogatively, how can a shower do good, how can it be otherwise than harmful in harvest time? |
56157 | we exclaimed,"how did you manage to fix it properly? |
56157 | we inquired,"what are you so industriously picking up along the road and transferring to your wallet? |
56157 | what?" |
56157 | worked solely for thy good, Thy joy, thy pastime, thy attire, thy food? |
46090 | ''Is it deep neet?'' 46090 ''Mine is breet enough,''said Chirrup, showing a pewter platter, and continued,''What hast thou?'' |
46090 | ''Well, Georgy, and so yo''re leaving th''owd house at last?'' 46090 Am aw lyin''thinks ta?" |
46090 | And dun you really think, then,said I,"that this place has been haunted by a boggart?" |
46090 | And is this your grandson? |
46090 | Aye,replied old Alice,"is n''t it a varra fine cat? |
46090 | Co'', ah,replied Sam;"does he eves miss, thinks ta? |

46090 | How''s your clock? |
46090 | Is n''t Grislehurst cold and lonely in winter time? |
46090 | It''s nought else, aw believe,said Mary;"does ta think he''ll co''?" |
46090 | Mary,said he, rising, and calling to his wife, who was in another room;"Mary, wheer''s that old watch?" |
46090 | Nay, I do n''t know as I hev, Billy; what is it? 46090 Papa, are angels poorly sometimes, like we are here? |
46090 | Papa, are people lame in heaven? |
46090 | Plant said,--''Good St John, this seed we crave, We have dared; shall we have?'' 46090 Reader,"says he,"did''st thou ever go from Wigan to Preston? |

46090 | Well, an''heaw han yo getten on? |

46090 | Well,replied the other, with cool indifference,"Get foughten, an''let''s go whoam?" |
46090 | Well,said I,"and what sort of a place was Grislehurst Hall itself?" |
46090 | Well,said he;"an''are yo i''th buildin''line-- at aw mun be so bowd?" |
46090 | Well,said he;"it''s nought to me, at aw know on-- nobbut aw''re thinkin''like.... Did''n yo ever see Baemforth Ho'', afore it''re poo''d deawn?" |
46090 | Well; what is it, pet? |

46090 | What, Gerzlehus''Ho''? |
46090 | Where shall we go this afternoon? |

46090 | Will you enter it, sir? |
46090 | [ 40][ 40]_ Yers to mo, neaw?_--hearest thou me, now? 46090 [ 8] After we had finished, he said,"Neaw, win yd have a reech o''bacco? |

46090 | ''Did n''t I buy this midden, Jem?'' |
46090 | ''Han yo foughten?'' |
46090 | ''Han yo lickt''n?'' |
46090 | ''Well, an''did n''t I pay tho for''t at th''same time?'' |
46090 | ''Well, but,''says tother,''did n''t I buy it on tho?'' |
46090 | ''What hast thou?'' |
46090 | --"Well, Dennis,"said the traveller,"I''ll have a score if you''ll tell us about the Irishman in the cook''s shop.--Ye will? |

46090 | An''wheer dun yo come fro, sen yo?" |
46090 | And must my trembling spirit fly Into a world unknown? |
46090 | And what is death, after all; but the stopping of life''s watch; to be wound up again by the Maker? |
46090 | And who was he, that jovial fellow, With his strong ale so old and mellow? |
46090 | Any man, with an unsophisticated mind, looking upon the two, might be allowed to say,"Why not do enough of_ this_ to cure_ that_?" |
46090 | Are there any remains of the old chantry left?" |
46090 | Arto findin''things eawt? |
46090 | Arto leet gi''n? |
46090 | As to the pride of"ancient descent,"what does it mean, apart from the renown of noble deeds? |
46090 | Come back to eawr heawse; an''Martha''ll go forrud to Stopput( Stockport)--winnot tho, Martha?... |

46090 | He replied,"Well; aw have yerd it said so, aw think-- but my memory houds nought neaw.... Tim Bobbin, say''n yo? |
46090 | He waited long, and then shouted,"Are thoose eggs noan ready yet?" |
46090 | He wortches up at th''col- pit yon, does n''t he? |
46090 | He''s a breet- lookin''brid, is n''t he? |
46090 | Hoo stare''t a bit afore hoo could may it eawt what it wur at''re creepin up th''chimney- hole, an''hoo said,"What mak o''lumber ha''n yo afoot neaw? |
46090 | I could not but lift my eyes now and then towards that solemn face, inwardly moved by a feeling which reverently said,"Will it do?" |
46090 | I had no sooner sat down, than he looked at my waistcoat pocket again, and said,"I say, old boy, why do n''t you carry a watch? |
46090 | I well remember that the following were among their favourites:--"O, Nanny, wilt thou gang wi''me?" |
46090 | In a minute or so, a voice from the cottage called out,"Does he belung to th''owd body, thinken yo?" |
46090 | Is he to become a kind of nomadic outcast? |
46090 | Is he to take up his works and walk, from one locality to another, every time an inconsiderate complaint happens to be made against him? |
46090 | Is n''t it, Sarah?" |
46090 | It runs thus:--_ Thrum._ Maister, dun yo want a nice bull- an- tarrier? |
46090 | It troubled me so much, indeed, that, even at church, when I heard the words,"Which of you, by taking thought, can add one cubit unto his stature?" |
46090 | It''s nearly th''heighest point i''t country; is n''t it, uncle?" |
46090 | Knocking the ashes out of my pipe, I rose up and said,"Have you got a time- table?" |
46090 | Let''s see, who''s lad are yo, sen yo? |
46090 | Let''s see, wi''n yo have hard brade? |
46090 | Let''s see; did''n yo gi''mo th''hawp''ny?... |
46090 | Oh thou who dost these pointers see, That show the passing hour; Say,--do I tell the time to thee, And tell thee nothing more? |
46090 | Scratching his head, and looking thoughtfully round among the houses, he said,"Scwofil? |
46090 | She stopt me and said,"Meastur, hea fur han yo com''d?" |
46090 | She was a good while in returning; so he shouted up the stairs,"Have n''t you found it yet, Mary?" |
46090 | Sing heigho,"cried he;"Does my wife''s first husband remember me?" |
46090 | Soon after this, Mary said to Jone,"Hasto gan thy horse aught, Jone?" |
46090 | Th''new un hardly comes up to''t, i''my e''en-- as fine as it is.... An''are yo beawn back this gate, then?" |
46090 | The first word spoken was--''What hast thou?'' |
46090 | The old woman, who had been listening behind us, with her hands clasped under her apron, now stepped up, and said,"Heaw lung sin? |
46090 | Then divul recave the toe I''ll stir till ye get both.... Will you take another score, sir,--till I tell the tale? |
46090 | There''s a lot o''nice, level lads i''this cote, is n''t there?... |
46090 | They were singing one of Leech''s finest minor tunes, to Wesley''s hymn:-- And am I born to die, To lay this body down? |

6018 | ''A good scholar, sir?'' |
6018 | ''Are you of that opinion as to the portraits of ancestors, whom one has never seen?'' |
6018 | ''Ay, and what we''( looking to me)? |
6018 | ''Ay, sir,''he replied;''but how much worse would it have been, if we had been neglected?'' |
6018 | ''But consider, sir; what is the House of Commons? |
6018 | ''But is not the case now, that, instead of flattering one person, we flatter the age?'' |
6018 | ''But is there not reason to fear that the common people may be oppressed?'' |
6018 | ''But what do you say, sir, to the ancient and continued tradition of the Church upon this point?'' |
6018 | ''But what motive could he have to make himself a Laplander?'' |
6018 | ''But, sir, if they have leases, is there not some danger that they may grow insolent? |
6018 | ''But,''said I,''if the duke invites us to dine with him to- morrow, shall we accept?'' |
6018 | ''But,''said she,''is it not enough if we keep it? |
6018 | ''Do n''t you know that I can hang you, if I please?'' |
6018 | ''Do you think, sir, that Burke has read Cicero much?'' |
6018 | ''From whence, then, does all this money come?'' |
6018 | ''Have you the Idler?'' |
6018 | ''How can there,''said he,''be a physical effect without a physical cause?'' |
6018 | ''If it were so, why has it ceased? |
6018 | ''Is he an oculist?'' |
6018 | ''Nor no woman, sir?'' |
6018 | ''Pray,''said he,''can they pronounce any LONG words?'' |
6018 | ''Sir, do n''t you perceive that you are defaming the countess? |
6018 | ''Then Hume is not the worse for Seattle''s attack?'' |
6018 | ''Upon what terms have you it?'' |
6018 | ''Very rich mines?'' |
6018 | ''What do you say to the Bishop of Meaux?'' |
6018 | ''What if we had him here?'' |
6018 | ''What is Pekin? |
6018 | ''What is to become of society, if a friendship of twenty years is to be broken off for such a cause?'' |
6018 | ''What, sir? |
6018 | ''Why is not the original deposited in some publick library, instead of exhibiting attestations of its existence? |
6018 | ''Why, John,''said I,''did you think the king should be controuled by a parliament?'' |
6018 | ''Why, sir, if moral evil be consistent with the government of the Deity, why may not physical evil be also consistent with it? |
6018 | ''Why,''said Sir Allan,''are they not all my people?'' |
6018 | A young lady of quality, who was present, very handsomely said,''Might not the son have justified the faults?'' |
6018 | About one he came into my room, and accosted me,''What, drunk yet?'' |
6018 | After saluting him, Malcolm, pointing to the sea, said,''What, John, if the prince should be prisoner on board one of those tenders?'' |
6018 | And had he not also a perpetual feast of fame? |
6018 | And should not we tire, in looking perpetually on this rock? |
6018 | And what was this book? |
6018 | Are we not to believe a man, when he says he has a great desire to see another? |
6018 | Are you baptized?'' |
6018 | Are you not rather too late in the year for fine weather, which is the life and soul of seeing places? |
6018 | As I was going away, the duke said,''Mr Boswell, wo n''t you have some tea?'' |
6018 | At breakfast, I asked,''What is the reason that we are angry at a trader''s having opulence?'' |
6018 | Being told that Dr Johnson did not hear well, Lochbuy bawled out to him,''Are you of the Johnstons of Glencro, or of Ardnamurchan?'' |
6018 | But may it not be answered, that a man may be altered by it FOR THE BETTER; that his spirits may be exhilarated, without his reason being affected? |
6018 | But what could he do? |
6018 | But, as a learned friend has observed to me,''What trials did he undergo, to prove the perfection of his virtue? |
6018 | Can you name one book of any value, on a religious subject, written by them?'' |
6018 | Consider, sir; what is the purpose of courts of justice? |
6018 | Did he envy us the birth- place of the king?] |
6018 | Did he ever experience any great instance of adversity?'' |
6018 | Do n''t you believe that I was very impatient for your coming to Scotland?'' |
6018 | Do n''t you know that, if I order you to go and cut a man''s throat, you are to do it?'' |
6018 | Do you think, sir, they ought to have such an influence?'' |
6018 | Dr Johnson again solemnly repeated''"How far is''t called to Fores? |
6018 | Dr Johnson asked, what made the difference? |
6018 | Dr Johnson said,''A wind, or not a wind? |
6018 | Dr Johnson said,''How THE DEVIL can you do it?'' |
6018 | Finding that there was now a discovery, Malcolm asked,''What''s to be done?'' |
6018 | For, when I asked him,''Would not you, sir, start as Mr Garrick does, if you saw a ghost?'' |
6018 | From whom can it be, in this commerce, that I desire to hide any thing? |
6018 | Garrick was asked,''Sir, have you a free benefit?'' |
6018 | He asked, how did the women do? |
6018 | He asked,''Is this Mr Boswell?'' |
6018 | He had told me, that one day in London, when Dr Adam Smith was boasting of it, he turned to him and said,''Pray, sir, have you ever seen Brentford?'' |
6018 | He laughed heartily at his lordship''s saying he was an ENTHUSIASTICAL farmer;''for,''said he,''what can he do in farming by his ENTHUSIASM?'' |
6018 | He looked at me, as if I had talked of going to the North Pole, and said,''You do not insist on my accompanying you?'' |
6018 | He spoke of Prince Charles being here, and asked Mrs Macdonald,''WHO was with him? |
6018 | How can you talk so? |
6018 | I am desiring to become charitable myself; and why may I not plainly say so? |
6018 | I asked if this was not unlucky: would not they hurt one another? |
6018 | I put him in mind of it to- day, while he expressed his admiration of the elegant buildings, and whispered him,''Do n''t you feel some remorse?'' |
6018 | I said,''Would not the same objection hold against the Trinity as against transubstantiation?'' |
6018 | If this be the case, why are not these distinctly ascertained? |
6018 | Is not a great part of it chosen by peers? |
6018 | Is there shame in it, or impiety? |
6018 | It was striking to hear all of them drinking? |
6018 | Let Dr Smith consider: Was not Mr Hume blest with good health, good spirits, good friends, a competent and increasing fortune? |
6018 | Let us consider; can there be more wanting to complete the Meditation on a Pudding? |
6018 | M''Leod asked, what is the particular excellence of Burke''s eloquence? |
6018 | Must we never have more convenience than Rorie More had? |
6018 | Now, how low should a price be? |
6018 | Of such ancestry who would not be proud? |
6018 | Or is it, perhaps, better to be brought about by indirect means, and in this artful manner? |
6018 | Pray, what do you know about his motions? |
6018 | Quo vagor ulterius? |
6018 | Sir, he would reason thus:"What will it cost me to be there once in two or three summers? |
6018 | The contest now is, What HAS he?'' |
6018 | The landlady said to me,''Is not this the great Doctor that is going about through the country?'' |
6018 | The serjeant asked,''Who is this fellow?'' |
6018 | The wish is laudable: why should I form designs to hide it? |
6018 | Tuesday, 14th September Dr Johnson said in the morning,''Is not this a fine lady?'' |
6018 | Was it upon that occasion that he expressed no curiosity to see the room at Dumfermline, where Charles I was born? |
6018 | What can the M''Craas tell about themselves a thousand years ago? |
6018 | What have your clergy done, since you sunk into presbyterianism? |
6018 | What is it then that I am doing? |
6018 | What is it to live and not to love?'' |
6018 | What made you buy such a book at Inverness?'' |
6018 | What part of Bayle do you mean? |
6018 | What principle is there, why a loadstone attracts iron? |
6018 | When Dr Johnson came in, she called to him,''Do you choose any cold sheep''s- head, sir?'' |
6018 | Which of all these dishes is unwholsome?'' |
6018 | Who CAN like the Highlands? |
6018 | Why a tree grows upwards, when the natural tendency of all things is downwards? |
6018 | Why an egg produces a chicken by heat? |
6018 | Why do n''t we see men thus produced around us now? |
6018 | Why does he not tell how to fill it?'' |
6018 | Why is not the form of the petition brought nearer to the meaning? |
6018 | Why not as well be Rorie More all over, as live upon his rock? |
6018 | Why, at least, does it not keep pace, in some measure, with the progress of time? |
6018 | Your old preceptor repeated, with much solemnity, the speech How far is''t called to Fores? |
6018 | but instantly corrected himself,''How can you do it?'' |
6018 | is this the case?'' |
6018 | or what degree of confidence should there be to make a bargain be set aside? |
6018 | said Dr Johnson,''you must have a very great trade?'' |
6018 | sir, what can a nation that has not letters tell of its original? |
6018 | who is it that I would impose on? |
8540 | ... My family? |
8540 | Am I not a fortunate invalid,he said,"to have the most beautiful view in the world to look at?" |
8540 | Any chance of seeing you-- without moving, for I''m suffering from weak heart, after two winter- contested elections in one year? 8540 How are we to make that''would- be''practical Assembly tell the Government to induce Portugal to put an end to so enormous a cultivation?" |
8540 | Is there anything else? |
8540 | What, then,he asked in 1902,"have the Tories done with the free hand that has been given them? |
8540 | Why does not someone''discover''France? |

8540 | ''Chamberlain said that Randolph Churchill on the previous night had asked him,"Shall I come over?" |
8540 | ''On May 7th the Cardinal wrote:"How can the_ Standard_ have got the Irish scheme? |
8540 | ''On the 14th Lord Granville telegraphed to Baring:"Can you give further information as to prospects of retreat from(? |
8540 | ''The question now raised was-- at the end of what number of years? |
8540 | A happy inspiration struck me, and I at once answered"Walsh"--a lucky guess which completely puzzled him, for he said,"Who told you?" |
8540 | And after noting this will you return it to me, that I may send it to Sir George Chesney and then to Arnold- Forster? |
8540 | And what intimate''s affection and respect for Sir Charles, and confidence in him, did not grow greater with every year? |
8540 | And why does he snub the Caucus when he has made up his mind to do exactly what they want? |
8540 | Are all these millions wasted? |
8540 | Before Prince Edward wants an allowance who knows what may happen? |
8540 | But I do not know that he was more successful, and I fear that his first question,"Has Russia any vulnerable points?" |
8540 | But how can we join another Government without any settled policy about Egypt? |
8540 | But-- what if it is not made? |
8540 | Can anything more be done?" |
8540 | Can nothing more be done? |
8540 | Chamberlain wrote to me:"Why does Hartington think_ aloud_ when he thinks one thing and is going to do the other? |
8540 | Discipline, nevertheless, seems perfect, but are the officers as good as the non- commissioned officers and the men? |
8540 | Do you not think you would do well to reserve elbow- room for a case like this? |
8540 | Do you see, as a consequence, Austria allying herself with Rumania and Turkey against Russia? |
8540 | Had they fetched £50,000? |
8540 | Harcourt''s alternative is impossible; then what is there? |
8540 | Have you any suggestion to make? |
8540 | He called everybody to bathe at 7 a.m., and where was ever better fresh- water bathing- place than the floating raft below the boat- house at Dockett? |

8540 | How can I be godfather to Hengist and Horsa?" |
8540 | How can you share them if you are never shown they''re there? |

8540 | How was this demand to be met? |
8540 | I do not think there would be any advantage in having any others, unless Rosebery? |
8540 | I know that two days''delay was caused by the necessity of sending to Osborne and to the Prime Minister, but why seven days?" |
8540 | I quite agree in your general view, but how can the bondholder be got to make sacrifices without his consent?''] |
8540 | If so, to whom should he go?'' |
8540 | If the latter, will you try your hand at it, if you approve? |
8540 | Is it desirable to say anything? |
8540 | Is that to make no difference? |
8540 | Is there any reason why at this moment they should part? |
8540 | Is this view some invention of my own imagination? |
8540 | Lord Granville had written to me:"Will you forgive my intruding two words of advice? |
8540 | On January 10th Lord Granville had telegraphed to Baring, without my knowledge,"Would Gordon or Wilson be of use?" |

8540 | Should Sir Charles go into the witness- box, deny on oath the unsworn charges made against him, and submit himself to cross- examination? |
8540 | Sir Frederick Roberts himself afterwards tried his hand at proposals of his own in a Memorandum entitled,"What are Russia''s vulnerable points?" |

8540 | Under these circumstances what had I better do?'' |
8540 | W. D.''I_ hope_ it is true that Stansfeld is back?'' |
8540 | Were these words wise when used without the smallest preparation for war having been made? |
8540 | Were we to insist, as we had done previously, on keeping the Germans off the north coast of the long eastern peninsula? |
8540 | What are we to do? |
8540 | What had been the main objection to the past management of the army in this country? |
8540 | What have we gained by it?" |
8540 | What more can I ask for or expect?'' |
8540 | What then? |
8540 | What will be the end of it all? |
8540 | Where do you put Dilke with them?" |
8540 | Who, he asked, were the military authorities on whose advice the Government relied? |
8540 | Whose congratulations do you think were the first that I received?" |
8540 | Why do n''t you deal with the Chancellor( Lord Herschell), instead of with Labouchere, O''Shea, and so forth? |
8540 | Why the d---- could he not wait till Parnell had quarrelled with the Tories? |
8540 | Why will the papers invent differences between you and me? |
8540 | Will he have the majority of the Liberals, following the party leader like sheep? |
8540 | Will he have the majority of the Radicals? |
8540 | Will not that be the time to part, if part we must, which I do not believe? |
8540 | With Sir Charles Dilke''s life clear before us, if the question be put,"Was he happy?" |
8540 | Would it not at least be best that we should call that conference on the first opportunity rather than have it thrust down our throats? |
8540 | Would not the same influence prevail in the matter of education? |
8540 | Would you ask money from one who has done so much for Greece?'' |

7975 | ''Do n''t you think,''replied Mr. Hope- Scott,''that the work in committee gives a man sufficient exercise? |
7975 | ''How could you leave me like that?'' |
7975 | ''Oh, very well; I fall back on my old classics-- don''t you do the same?'' |
7975 | ''Quid foditis vobis cisternas dissipatas?'' |

7975 | And who is there amongst you, my dear brethren, who does not, in some respect, owe him much? |
7975 | And why have I done this? |
7975 | Before this happened, meeting another friend in the street, who had wisely retreated in time, Mr. Hope- Scott asked him how he got on? |
7975 | But how to assign to each his share in the mighty structure? |
7975 | But may not caution obviate the latter? |
7975 | But now, secondly, by way of contrast, what came of them? |
7975 | But then I reflect, if I, who did not know him as he might be known, suffer as I do, what must be their suffering who knew him so well? |
7975 | But who is there who knew the dear departed, who does not feel an irresistible impulse to turn from the dead to the living? |
7975 | But who was watching this great design of Providence in its small beginning? |
7975 | But you praise_ justly_ the''moderation and wisdom''of the R. C. clergy on the question of the hour-- why do you not imitate them? |
7975 | Can a majority determine the doctrine of the Church? |

7975 | How was it his medical men did not know better? |
7975 | I honour you even in what I think your error; why, then, should my feelings to you alter in anything else? |

7975 | Is rest in that department really favourable to religious inquiry? |
7975 | Is that a sound rule of political action? |

7975 | New Year''s Day returns again, Does it bring us joy or pain? |
7975 | None, did I say? |
7975 | Pray, does a_ majority_ bind in such a council? |
7975 | Rather, who would not wish to have lived his life, and to have died his death? |
7975 | Seldom, perhaps, can it be otherwise; but what would happen if all charity were measured by the deserts of the recipient? |
7975 | Shall I do so? |
7975 | Shall we trust the future more Than the time we''ve spent before? |

7975 | The infant Christ, who lay On Mary''s breast to- day, Was He not born for you to die, And you to bear your Saviour company? |
7975 | This is what may be said, and it is scarcely more than a truism to say it; for, undoubtedly, who will deny it? |

55732 | A chill came over me, and in a faint voice I asked the man what he had in the skiff? |
55732 | And Charley, for whom I lost all, where is he? |
55732 | And are these women calculated, by their manner, dress or appearance, to shock or warn people by their degradation? |

55732 | Could you tell us somethink about your past life, my boy?" |
55732 | D''ye remember that pale faced girl who asked you to give her some liquor in the Canteen?" |

55732 | Ham hi a friend of brass? |
55732 | He did not seem inclined to tell at first, but said sullenly,"you do n''t want her do you? |
55732 | He faintly said in a childish voice:"What can I do for you, Sir? |
55732 | Here a couple of men entered with kegs, and one of them, stepping up to me, asks:"Would you like to handle a large sum of money, Sir?" |
55732 | I am with you this hevening, for what purpose, I hask? |
55732 | I answered,"He says he feels pretty well?" |
55732 | I asked a bystander what it was, and he answered with proper British pride:"Why, do n''t you know? |
55732 | I asked myself"who has been the most popular and best loved American in England?" |
55732 | I stepped back to the towing path and spoke to Mr. Wilkes, who asked of me"Who is that? |
55732 | I suppose you want to see St. Giles? |
55732 | If yer''ai nt got a h''apenny I thinks yer as well on the one side of the bridge as the other? |

55732 | So wot will we do?" |
55732 | So you wants to look at the Crib, do ye? |
55732 | Sovereigns or halves?" |
55732 | THE QUESTION THIS WEDNESDAY EVENING WILL BE"THE POPE''S MODEL LETTER,"WHERE ARE WE NOW? |
55732 | The Lord High Steward puts the question to each peer in his seat, after the evidence has been heard;"Is the prisoner at the Bar Guilty or Not Guilty?" |
55732 | The detective introduces me to this famous, or rather infamous, Messalina, and her first question is,"Will you stand some''Sham?''" |
55732 | The executioner said:"Shall I assist you to disrobe, Lady Jane?" |
55732 | The question, therefore, remains to be solved, is he an adulterer or not? |
55732 | Then Lady Jane felt for the block, her eyes being bandaged, and groping, she said:"Where is it? |
55732 | Then she knelt, and turning to Father Feckenham, the Queen''s chaplain, asked him:"Shall I say this psalm?" |
55732 | To- morrow and Saturday I shall be hunting in Nottinghamshire, but if you are still in town, may I come to see you about five on Sunday afternoon? |

55732 | Well wot d''ye want ter cross the bridge for then? |
55732 | Well, old fellow, how are you( to Sullivan), and what are you doing?" |
55732 | What can be the matter with the man?" |
55732 | What do I live for? |
55732 | What more delicate flattery could be administered to a King than this? |
55732 | What would such an expanse of land be in any other country but England, which is, in itself, a huge landscape garden? |
55732 | When he got into the House, he asked some of the boys, who had been sphakin''? |
55732 | Where do you live?" |
55732 | Where is it?" |
55732 | Who is a good man for Smithfield? |
55732 | Who is he?" |
55732 | Who kept chiming into my ears that I had a pretty face and that I ought to sell it? |
55732 | Who was this lone, wretched girl, and why came she here at this hour? |
55732 | Who''ll buy this prime lot of flounders? |
55732 | Who''s the buyer?" |
55732 | Who, I say? |
55732 | Why am I here? |
55732 | Why prolong it any longer? |
55732 | Why, to be present at the feast which takes place hannerally among the members of our noble purfession-- shall I say dignified purfession? |
55732 | Will he hoblige?" |
55732 | Will ye give us a penny? |
55732 | Will you have soda and brandy, sir, or will you have a little bitter beer? |

55732 | said my friend enquiringly,"I think I''ve heard of her before-- which is she?" |
55732 | what are you doing Burnham, why do you steer so?" |
55732 | who showed them-- nay, obtruded upon and paraded before them these odious women? |
55732 | who, indeed, but the men, who recoil from their own work of their own hands, and cry out upon the consequences of their own conduct? |
46571 | And what do you do with the light ones? |
46571 | And where have you been all the evening? 46571 Are you aware,"says the latter,"that your remarks have been very offensive to our French friend? |
46571 | But do you know whom Macready caricatures or imitates? 46571 Did I call them beautiful? |
46571 | Did you see that gas- lit rivulet at Vauxhall? |
46571 | Do n''t you know that those pantomimes, for the most part, are nothing but a tissue of stale jokes taken at random from the last volume of_ Punch_? |
46571 | Does it indeed prove all that? 46571 Have I not told your husband again and again"----"Are you again harping at the old theme?" |
46571 | How did you say a- mu- sing? 46571 How do you like it?" |
46571 | How does he speak? |
46571 | How many copies? |
46571 | Is it an invitation to Paris? 46571 Is not your loin of beef cut from Jütish ox, that was fattened on the Holstein marshes? |
46571 | Just so, M. Gueronnay; an opinion after your own heart, is n''t it? 46571 May I ask,"said Sir John, after a short pause,"what can have shocked you in England within two hours after your arrival?" |
46571 | Monsieur_ Enfin_,said Sir John, as he accompanied the Doctor to the door,"has been bothering you, but, dear me; what can you expect of a Frenchman? |
46571 | Most amiable of all German philosophers,said Mr. Baxter,"are you, too, among the Philistines? |
46571 | So you have found an acquaintance already? 46571 Ten? |
46571 | The_ Standard''s_ looking up, I dare say? |
46571 | To whom are you bowing with so much heroic devotion? |
46571 | What does all this mean? |
46571 | What escapades are those? 46571 What is that man after?" |
46571 | What was the expense of that affair under the water? |
46571 | What,asked I,"do you say to the romantic style of decoration which prevails in England?" |
46571 | Whom? 46571 Why is her most gracious Majesty like a notorious pick- pocket?" |
46571 | Why not? 46571 You allude to the sun of the mind?" |
46571 | You wish to know where the people''s merry- makings are held? 46571 _ Herald''s_ a ministerial paper; beats the_ Times_ hollow, do n''t it? |
46571 | ''Blutsher,''said he,''who is Blutsher?'' |
46571 | A dissolution perhaps? |
46571 | A few miles more or less-- what does it matter? |
46571 | A foreign war? |
46571 | A good deal of humbug about it, is n''t there?" |
46571 | A letter is only one penny; and what is a penny? |
46571 | A voice from the gallery:--"At your uncle''s, eh?" |
46571 | Again, and again, do they inquire,"what he will give?" |
46571 | Ah, my dear sir, where will you find it?" |
46571 | Am I indeed in an assembly of English gentlemen, most revered and respectable Sir John?" |
46571 | Am I not right? |
46571 | Am I right, madam?" |
46571 | Am I to understand that you did n''t like the piece?" |
46571 | An accident perhaps? |
46571 | An impertinent monkey alone shaded his eyes with his hands, and asked the sun where it came from, and whether there was not some mistake somewhere? |
46571 | And can you believe that Providence could allow such a state of things to exist? |
46571 | And did they ever make concessions to the crown at the expense of the people''s rights? |
46571 | And how was it done, and when, and where? |
46571 | And how, in the name of all that is charitable, are the London pickpockets to live if people will never stand still on any account? |
46571 | And now what has been the result for_ the Beautiful_ and_ the Great_?" |
46571 | And was there any one bitten by him? |
46571 | And was''nt Lord Palmerston a capital bull- dog? |
46571 | And what about her husband? |
46571 | And what do you say to the view, eh? |
46571 | And what said Paxton? |
46571 | And what was the Duke of Wellington''s conduct when the mob assailed Apsley House? |
46571 | And why do they want it? |
46571 | And why waste even a thought on the reform of such trifles, so long as reform is needed in matters of greater importance? |
46571 | Apprehensions, eh? |
46571 | Are revolutions to be stamped out of the soil? |
46571 | Are the British Nature''s favourites? |
46571 | Are they over- due?--run a- ground?--wrecked?--lost? |
46571 | Are they perhaps more disinterested, and our German literary men more selfish? |
46571 | Are we to remain here and pursue our studies of the natural history of advertising vans? |
46571 | Are you fond of philosophy and religion? |
46571 | Are you my old friend Baxter? |
46571 | Are you still of opinion, that the people of England are without dramatic affinities and theatrical instincts?" |
46571 | Besides, how can you bridge the river so low down as this? |
46571 | But did they ever consent to a curtailment of their own rights? |
46571 | But for whom? |
46571 | But how does Mr. H. employ his time after his half- hour''s turn in the gallery? |
46571 | But how has this interesting little water- course fared under the hands of the illuminator? |
46571 | But is there no legal scale of fares? |
46571 | But is this all? |
46571 | But power? |
46571 | But what German, of our days, is not a refugee, or likely to be one? |
46571 | But what Londoner can condescend to establish his household arrangements on the decimal system, or on the theory of miracles? |
46571 | But what business-- so will German readers ask-- can detain an editor until late at night? |
46571 | But what did a British Government do in those days of passion and terror? |
46571 | But what do you say to this sort of thing? |
46571 | But what if Russia were to send your own ships against you? |
46571 | But what''s a vessel? |
46571 | But when? |
46571 | But who can tell how many miles he has gone in a cab? |
46571 | But why did we go away?" |
46571 | Can they not go to Paris; and do not Grisi, Mario, and Lablache also sing in Paris? |
46571 | Can they thrive without sunlight and rain, without provocation from the higher regions? |
46571 | Can this be Westminster Abbey, or is it a mere optical delusion? |
46571 | Can you, in the face of this villanous cigar, muster the courage to talk to me of your government and your constitution? |
46571 | Comfortable, is n''t it? |
46571 | Did any one here ask for it? |
46571 | Did malice go hand in hand with the administration of justice? |
46571 | Did she do the deed? |
46571 | Did she make a confession? |
46571 | Did they fetter the press? |
46571 | Did they invade and search the houses of the citizens? |
46571 | Did they proclaim the state of siege? |
46571 | Did they send you to the Guildhall for a_ carte de sureté_? |
46571 | Did you see how at the slightest touch they separated? |
46571 | Did''nt he bark with a loud voice, to the terror of the whole neighbourhood? |
46571 | Do n''t you agree with me? |
46571 | Do n''t you think one publication a week is more than enough? |
46571 | Do the leading- article writers of the_ Times_ rather care for the effect which is produced by their anonymity? |
46571 | Do the rights of mankind dwindle away as century follows century? |
46571 | Do they rather care for the cause which they advocate than for their own celebrity? |
46571 | Do you know what this beauty, with all the slenderness of her waist, and all the fulness of her shoulders, can never attain? |
46571 | Do you want religion? |
46571 | Does it perform the functions of a gate? |
46571 | Does not the whole of the civilised world wear the cast- off clothes of Paris? |
46571 | For what does the code of family morals enact and prescribe? |
46571 | Go to Smithfield, and ask the sellers where they got that Homeric beef, to which the British owe their strength, humour, and political superiority?" |
46571 | Has England gone back in education and refinement? |
46571 | Has he not an aristocratic hand? |
46571 | Have the police expelled you from London? |
46571 | Have they resigned the smallest and least significant of their own prerogatives? |
46571 | Have you left off your vests, etc.? |
46571 | He asks where we have been; and when we tell him, he leans his head back, purses up his mouth, shuts his eyes, and says"Well?" |
46571 | He could not deny the truth of the learned Doctor''s sally; yet if he admitted it, what-- ay, what was to become of the roast beef of Old England? |
46571 | How are these two little volumes ever to give the Germans a proper idea of what London really is? |
46571 | How can he dare to pinch my cheek as if I were but a child?" |
46571 | How dare you scratch your head, and hold your pipe in your hand? |
46571 | How dare you stand there you dolt? |
46571 | How do you like it, Sir John? |
46571 | How do you like the sketch? |
46571 | How else could he manage to pay the interest on the national debt, and the army and navy estimates, and all the sundries? |
46571 | How far different is this reading- room from anything we see at home? |
46571 | How is it possible for a theatre to prosper? |
46571 | How''s the_ Globe_? |
46571 | I hope you have n''t seen a shark? |
46571 | I mean the tunnel, what did it cost?" |
46571 | I see many a country fellow in my time as funky as can be, and sweating, cause why? |
46571 | I would say, from his Majesty the Emperor himself?" |
46571 | If armed opposition is treasonable, was it less treasonable in days gone by? |
46571 | Is it a challenge? |
46571 | Is it a triumphal- arch? |
46571 | Is it not chivalrous? |
46571 | Is it not full of the most touching disinterestedness? |
46571 | Is it their hypochondriacal climate? |
46571 | Is n''t it practical? |
46571 | Is not his chin round, his forehead white, and his toilet irreproachable? |
46571 | Is not their vote the full and firm expression of popular opinion? |
46571 | Is obesity a title to honours? |
46571 | Is she innocent? |
46571 | Is the greater moral excellence to be found here or on the other side of the channel? |
46571 | Is their climate more genial; their soil more fertile than those of the countries we and others live in? |
46571 | Is this prejudice or political wisdom? |
46571 | Is this self- denial created by the mere desire of making money? |
46571 | Is''nt a good honest bridge ten times cheaper and handsomer? |
46571 | Just order me to play the dancing- master, eh? |
46571 | Kick''s it into the middle of next week, eh? |
46571 | Look you at flags, Silly, to find colours your own black, red, gold? |
46571 | My dear Doctor, I put it to you; if those places and matters are not mentioned at all, how are the foreigners ever to understand what London is? |
46571 | Need I add, that all these are strictly separate? |
46571 | No altering the poop, no taking out boilers, no cutting in halves, eh? |
46571 | No? |
46571 | Nothing-- unless it be that they eat turtle soup, and_ patés de foie gras_? |
46571 | Now tell me, most respectable Sir John, how do they teach history in your schools? |
46571 | Now tell me, what is her behaviour? |
46571 | Of course they can; but do you know what these carefully- trimmed fingers can not do? |
46571 | On which side is the greater good-- and on which the worse evil? |
46571 | Or has the great nation of England so small a mind that it can not distinguish between the merits of a cause and its success? |
46571 | Or is it Church and State? |
46571 | Resignation of ministers? |
46571 | Shall I show you how we do it?" |
46571 | Surely you can not have been out all night without some slight illness which will justify me in opening my medicine chest?" |
46571 | That at the present day utilitarian tendencies are predominant, even in literature, who can deny? |
46571 | That look means,"Have you caught a cold, you or any of you? |
46571 | The question,"How do you like your room?" |
46571 | Then another cup of tea for me?" |
46571 | They are just starting-- whither? |
46571 | They have not anything extra in those countries, have they?" |
46571 | Wagner was at my service, cheap as any stale mackerel; but could I insult you by producing her? |
46571 | Was it not the case of the German Titans, when a mere chance, an earthquake, flung the keys of the house within their reach? |
46571 | Was such a thing ever heard of in a public office? |
46571 | We cross a small court- yard, and mount a few steps( why should''nt we?) |
46571 | We have had more of them than England, Germany, and Italy-- in fact, what is there that Paris has not? |
46571 | We just saw workshops without men; why should there not be a library without books? |
46571 | We looked at the Duke of Wellington riding over the field of Waterloo; and I said:''Could n''t you find a place for our Blücher?'' |
46571 | Well turned in the waist, eh?''" |
46571 | Were Englishmen tried by courts- martial? |

46571 | What does it all matter? |
46571 | What does the Lord Mayor? |
46571 | What is an excursion on the Thames without the mystic fog of Romanticism? |

46571 | What is the matter? |
46571 | What right has the City to such honours, now that London has long since engulphed it? |
46571 | What then are the effects of the London winters, of the gloomy foggy days, the cold rainy nights, and of the changeable English weather? |

46571 | Where are the merits of the City? |
46571 | Where in all the world can such fogs and such a pestilential atmosphere be found, except in London? |
46571 | Where, out of England, can you find such beautiful green meadows, and so mild an air, in November? |
46571 | Which is it to be? |
46571 | Which of these lamps shall I select for the lighting of my cigar?" |
46571 | Who and what is that man? |
46571 | Who are they? |
46571 | Who has not heard of that famous article of furniture? |
46571 | Who is this"manager,"and what are his functions? |
46571 | Who would gainsay it? |
46571 | Who, in the name of all that is prudent, can the people be who make such a shocking waste of gas? |
46571 | Why all those corners on the eastern side, and why those small narrow shops? |
46571 | Why should English editors be at their post until three or four o''clock in the morning? |
46571 | Why should I express my gratitude to the hand that is held out to me in getting in? |
46571 | Why should he? |
46571 | Why should he? |
46571 | Why should there be a begging of pardon when every one is convinced that the kick was accidental, unintentional, and that no offence was meant? |
46571 | Why should they go to your Italian Opera House? |
46571 | Why should you rest in this town? |
46571 | and how does it happen that the period of the Garricks, Kembles, and Siddons did not create and lead you to a better taste? |
46571 | cried he at last;''do you think they can order a fleet as they would a cargo of cheese? |
46571 | le Docteur, are your adventures so very important that they depend on the minute?" |
46571 | or the offer of a pension?" |
46571 | said I;"then he''s a dandy?" |
46571 | the public- house or a lot of oysters? |
46676 | ''Will I, yer honour? 46676 Afraid of holy spirits?" |
46676 | And Susie? |
46676 | And after that? |
46676 | And after that? |
46676 | And how did folks in the years gone by prevent frosts, and blights? |
46676 | And the maids would reply--''Will you marry one of my daughters, one of my daughters?'' |
46676 | And the maids,I said,"did they have no part in the merry- making?" |
46676 | And then, Bess? |
46676 | And what happened afterwards? |
46676 | And what saved''em? |
46676 | Are you ready? |
46676 | But how about the apples? 46676 But in old days, if I had wanted a housemaid or a scullery- maid, what should I have done?" |
46676 | But supposing Mouse objected? |
46676 | But supposing that you are not rich, that you have n''t money in your purse, or a cheque- book from the bank like papa? |
46676 | But surely your brother does n''t believe that_ now_? |
46676 | But what had that to do with cock- fighting? |
46676 | But what has happened to your brother? |
46676 | But why, Thady, have they sent you? |
46676 | But you wo n''t like to hurt butterflies, Bess? |
46676 | But, mum, may I take some pins from your pincushion? 46676 But, my dear,"I began,"if it was all play, how would you ever learn to read or to write? |
46676 | But,I asked,"how about Tramp and Tartar? |
46676 | Can you repeat to me any of the rhymes? |
46676 | Cock- fightin''? |
46676 | Could it have been a poisoned rose? |
46676 | Did I mind? |
46676 | Did n''t I work here fifty years agone, in the old days? 46676 Did they put spurs on them?" |
46676 | Did you enjoy yourself at Hals''birthday? |
46676 | Did you ever see a bull baited? |
46676 | Did you mind very much? |
46676 | Do n''t you want the blankets, mama? |
46676 | Do yer take me for a loseller, marm? |
46676 | Do yer think that I have nought to do, but to stump through wood and field, pulling blows for a May folly? |
46676 | Do you feel better now? |
46676 | Everything? |
46676 | For whom,cries the grief- stricken old man,"did I reserve the discovery of that singular affection that I had for him in my soul?" |
46676 | Has Benjamin been able to work all these years? |
46676 | Have you anything pretty to show us? |
46676 | Have you done? |
46676 | Have you ever been there? |
46676 | Have you ever seen much of that? |
46676 | Have you no water at home, my child, that you come here? |
46676 | He is most fascinating,I answered, watching my new pet;"but how can I catch him flies?" |
46676 | How about doing disagreeable things, Bess? 46676 How about heaven, then, being quite a perfect place?" |
46676 | How did it happen? |
46676 | How much? 46676 How much?" |
46676 | How was that? |
46676 | How, little one, will you do that? |
46676 | I fear you suffer? |
46676 | Is it a good thing to get a blessing? |
46676 | Is n''t it pretty? |
46676 | Is n''t she greedy? |
46676 | Is that you, Hals? |
46676 | Is the world better, Timothy,I asked,"for the abolition of the stocks, and pillory? |
46676 | Is there nowhere,pursued my little girl,"where one can buy a brother? |
46676 | Leave the eggs, and what for will her leddyship do that? |
46676 | Madame se porte mieux? |
46676 | Mama,she said reprovingly,"where have you been? |
46676 | May n''t I come in? |
46676 | Me? |
46676 | Miss Bess is all right? |
46676 | Mum, Mum, you''re not dead? |
46676 | Mum, Mum,answered Bess, impatiently,"you must leave the poor Lord a few rats, or what would his poor dogs do?" |
46676 | Mum,replied Bess, dreamily,"I am thinking and thinking----""Yes, dear?" |
46676 | Mum,said Bess, as I lifted her off Jill''s back,"could you spare me one of the snowdrops to keep in my own nursery?" |
46676 | Must one really do that,asked Bess sadly,"before one can give anything?" |
46676 | No damage done by the snow? |
46676 | No, no, mum; but what if the pug was to catch cold? |
46676 | Nothing wrong in the garden? |
46676 | Nothing wrong, nurse? |
46676 | Overlooked? |
46676 | Perhaps cursed and swore and scratched; but, even then, had she no father or mother to forgive her? |
46676 | Shall I have this sent to the Abbey? |
46676 | Sugar and sunshine, what more can a bee desire? |
46676 | Suppose he did n''t come by this train, what would you do then? |
46676 | The cock''nope,''as you call him, is so beautiful,I urged,"that surely he may have a few buds in spring, and later on get a little fruit? |
46676 | The old squire, when he seed the lad ride like that, said at the finish--''Will you come back and whip in for me, for yer be the right sort?'' |
46676 | Then I said,''Why do you like''em like that? 46676 Then the lasses used to answer,"she told us,"and cry out--"''And what is your intent, sirs, intent, sirs? |
46676 | Then the second lot,as Nana called the lasses,"answer back, and shout--"''Who have ye come to gather away?'' |
46676 | Was n''t that rather hard? |
46676 | Was the sale effected? |
46676 | Was there not a belief that a cock hatched in an owl or magpie''s nest was sure to have luck in the ring? |
46676 | Was your brother better? |
46676 | Well, Thady, how did it happen? |
46676 | Well, Thady,I said,"what has brought you here? |
46676 | Well, what happened? |
46676 | Well,I pursued,"but what are you going to do?" |
46676 | Well,I said,"what is it?" |
46676 | Were there any penances in your time, Timothy? |
46676 | Were they good games? |
46676 | What did they do? |
46676 | What did you do at the Wakes, and how long did they last? |
46676 | What did you do? |
46676 | What did you say? |
46676 | What does I want it for? |
46676 | What dost thee stand there for, loselling? |
46676 | What else have you got? |
46676 | What is it for? |
46676 | What is it? |
46676 | What is it? |
46676 | What is it? |
46676 | What is it? |
46676 | What is that? |
46676 | What is the use of London? |
46676 | What ones? |
46676 | What was the name of his horse? |
46676 | What ways? |
46676 | What will Miss Weldon do? |
46676 | What would you do? |
46676 | What''s the matter, little girl? |
46676 | What, dear? |
46676 | When I got in, Nell, her comed up to me and her says,''What ails thee, Betty?'' 46676 When did old Tom die at last?" |
46676 | Where does he live? |
46676 | Where is the nest? |
46676 | Which is? |
46676 | Who was sweet Maude, and who was Corney Rodgers? |
46676 | Why are n''t you glad to go-- glad as I am, mamsie? |
46676 | Why can not governesses smoke? |
46676 | Why do n''t beautiful things happen much oftener? 46676 Why do n''t you beat me, why do n''t you shake me, or do something?" |
46676 | Why does she behave like that? |
46676 | Why not? |
46676 | Why should poor children? |
46676 | Why should she mind? |
46676 | Why should they all be jolly because the poor gentleman died? |
46676 | Why? |
46676 | Why? |
46676 | Will there be cake-- my favourite cake? |
46676 | Will you bring one down? |
46676 | Wo n''t you have a cup of tea? |
46676 | Worse,asked Bess,"than taking horrible, nasty, filthy medicines, worse than going to have teeth taken out by the dentist?" |
46676 | Yes, Bess,I inquired;"but what did you do?" |
46676 | Yes, Burbidge, but how about your brother? |
46676 | Yes? |
46676 | You are not cold, child? |
46676 | You here, Susie? |
46676 | Your brother, Burbidge? |
46676 | _ Why, their own tongue._"What is it like? |
46676 | ''And who will you send to fetch her away?'' |
46676 | ''What be yer lookin''round here for?'' |
46676 | And if Hals did n''t find some one to meet him, what would he say?" |
46676 | And in answer to my inquiry,"What swans?" |
46676 | And them,"alluding to the rooks,"them only spoils old things, does them, mamsie?" |
46676 | And then will you say that nobody-- nobody is to go near us?" |
46676 | And when I asked why for? |
46676 | And when you grew up and got quite big, you would n''t like to be quite ignorant and to know nothing, would you?" |
46676 | Are they still growing? |
46676 | As we drove home, Bess suddenly turned round and said--"Mamsie, why ca n''t they buy blankets?" |
46676 | Bell- horses, bell- horses what time of day? |
46676 | Besides,"I asserted,"I must introduce them carefully; what if our old friend should be jealous or''unsympathetic''like another old friend?" |
46676 | Bess listened open- mouthed, and at the end exclaimed--"Why has God given me so much, and to poor children, then, so little?" |
46676 | But oh, mama, could it-- could it really be?" |
46676 | But what sort of apple was it?" |
46676 | But why choose, for are not both God''s feathered choristers, and their songs our earliest melodies of childhood? |
46676 | But why should papa only have dogs as a matter of course? |
46676 | Can you love me really and truly when you know what I''ve done-- really love me again?" |
46676 | Could greater praise be given?'' |
46676 | Could it be a real robber?" |
46676 | Did yer ever hear, marm, the story of how Seth Yates sold his wife?" |
46676 | Did"holy Mr. Herbert"ever pace that old pleasure- house, I have often asked myself, as a little lad? |
46676 | Do we love flowers less? |
46676 | Every one war feared of Nanny,"added old Betty,"for they felt before her as innocent as a child, and what war there as she could n''t do to them? |
46676 | Hals and Bess followed, panting and crying out eagerly,"Where, where?" |
46676 | Have we forgotten how to laugh and sing in village and hamlet, and is merry England steeped in grey mists? |
46676 | How did you know it?" |
46676 | I asked her what was the matter? |
46676 | I carried my flowers reverently, for were they not the first promise of spring, the smile, as it were, of the scarce known year? |
46676 | I could not refrain from asking;"what happened to her?" |
46676 | I have often asked myself; or have they perished like the Stuart line and cause? |
46676 | I opened my lattice window and inquired what they were about to do? |
46676 | I opened the conversation by asking him from where he came? |
46676 | I remembered at the end of my first visit my kind host asking me amongst his rare and beautiful flowers, what I had most admired? |
46676 | I said before starting,"Is there nothing I ought to take to her?" |
46676 | I was puzzled for a moment, but at last I stammered out,"Where? |
46676 | In what English household would it be possible to get the same amount of trouble taken? |
46676 | Is there anything better than a day out in the heart of the country? |
46676 | It was an easy matter to put Bess into a fresh dry frock and into a clean white pinafore, but what could be done with Harry? |
46676 | Just as Constance was leaving, Bess rushed in and seized my friend''s hand, and called out impetuously,"Have you told mamsie? |
46676 | May I come-- I want to, I want to?" |
46676 | May I? |
46676 | May I?" |
46676 | No?" |
46676 | Now, why ca n''t we always have carnations and roses? |
46676 | O, if thou have Hid them in some flowery cave Tell me where? |
46676 | Old Shropshire folks still repeat to their grandchildren, when they see a carrion crow--"Dead''orse, dead''orse, Where? |
46676 | Strong light often dazzles, and, after all, are we not all children groping in the dark? |
46676 | Then I stood up and answered bold,''Is it the big hawk that your honours want, or the fern owl, the sheriff- man, or any other fowl?'' |
46676 | Then, after a while, she suddenly fell into a reflective mood, and asked what are the best ways of forgetting that you are waiting? |
46676 | Was it a better world, I have often asked myself, when women loved their spinning- wheels and tambour- frames? |
46676 | Was it of such a man that the great essayist wrote,"A man having such a friend hath two lives in his desires"? |
46676 | Was the world, when it sang at its work, a happier or jollier world? |
46676 | We know that God ca n''t have ugly boys in His garden, or what would the poor girl angels do? |
46676 | What can it be?" |
46676 | What could so young a child have done to merit death?" |
46676 | What did the young men do in the orchards?" |
46676 | What does her mean,"asked the old man, in a tone of righteous wrath,"by finding it dull in her native town? |
46676 | What happened to fair Alice, I have often asked myself, in the time of trouble that was soon to come? |
46676 | What papers, I wondered, have lain there? |
46676 | What would she not have agreed to, to gain her point? |
46676 | When I came to this part of the register, she broke out indignantly with--"Why could n''t they leave_ our_ abbot alone? |
46676 | When yer go to her leddyship''s sports it must be clad as the best of''em,''and where were my boots to begin with?" |
46676 | Where are the gardens of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries? |
46676 | Where were the gardens of"the Hesperides?" |
46676 | Where? |
46676 | Where?" |
46676 | Who knows? |
46676 | Why does one not get up every morning? |
46676 | Why is the society of old servants so delightful to children? |
46676 | Why miss daily the enchantments of morning? |
46676 | Why should poor children be taken to London? |
46676 | Would parson mind? |
46676 | [ Sidenote: BOURTON BOY''S REQUEST]"Why do n''t you give him lettuce, too? |
46676 | [ Sidenote: HALS ARRIVES]"Fräulein is not here?" |
46676 | [ Sidenote: HOW COULD I BE SO NAUGHTY?] |
46676 | [ Sidenote: OLD MAY DAYS] Is the world less merry, I asked myself, since old Timothy''s grandam danced beneath the May- pole? |
46676 | [ Sidenote: THE COMPANY OF SAINTS]"Are you not afraid to sit by yourself?" |
46676 | [ Sidenote: WHERE ARE THE GARDENS OF THE PAST?] |
46676 | [ Sidenote:"I WANT TO BE HAPPY"] As we drew up before the door, Bess exclaimed, regretfully--"Oh, mama, why has it all stopped? |
46676 | _ From an Engraving after a Drawing by Paul Sandby, R.A._]"Was that possible?" |
46676 | he answered--"Did n''t yer hear, mam, about the great birds? |
46676 | inquired Bess,"the one that Hals likes best of all, with apricot jam and chocolate on the top?" |
46676 | where be Tom?'' |
46676 | why can not children be well in London?" |
47386 | ''Can I get thee owt?'' 47386 ''How dost a''know?'' |
47386 | ''How much is it?'' 47386 ''Is owd Greenwood''s son, Jim, going to confirmation class too?'' |
47386 | ''No more can I,''said I;''but I''d like to know?'' 47386 ''Well, then,''said she,''may Miss H----n stop with you?'' |
47386 | ''Well,''says I,''wot is''t a doing here? 47386 ''Why?'' |
47386 | ''Win''t thee look out o''chamber window and see if there''s a leet i''t''school?'' 47386 And who''s Will o''th''Jumps?" |
47386 | And your butter- milk too? |
47386 | Are you ready? |
47386 | Can you let me have shelter for a little while, and then a guide to Arncliffe? |
47386 | Did you ever hear such a woman? |
47386 | Did you reach the bottom? |
47386 | Did you think to find London streets paved with gold? |
47386 | Do you drink your water warm, Job? |
47386 | Do you wear these? |
47386 | Dost a''mean that I''m to take thee as a lodger? |
47386 | Farmer,said I, after a pause,"have you plenty of rope about your house?" |
47386 | Good evening, friend,said I;"I''m a stranger lost on the moor: can you direct me towards Arncliffe?" |
47386 | Had he any clothes on, and, if so, what were they like? |
47386 | Have I, Doctor? |
47386 | Have n''t I, my lady? |
47386 | He inquired of the aforenamed persons,we are told in his Autobiography,"whether they heard anything? |
47386 | How can you say so,he replied,"when I have your own receipt showing that I paid you for it?" |
47386 | How does it look on the neck? |
47386 | How far to Arncliffe? |
47386 | I reckon thou''st not been stopping this time at Moor House? |
47386 | I suppose Mrs.---- is expecting me? |
47386 | I suppose you are Mr.----, from Thirsk? |
47386 | Is she not enough to drive a man mad? 47386 Is that intended as a personal remark?" |
47386 | It''s rare good now, is n''t it? |
47386 | Jemmy,asked Captain Bolton,"did you think you were drowning in the wash- tub? |
47386 | My friend, are you really blind? |
47386 | Nay,answered Jemmy,"dost see any green in my eye? |
47386 | Now tell me, gaffer, can one see as far as America, do you think? |
47386 | One can see a deel furder,answered John"You do n''t mean to say so?" |
47386 | Please, sir,said Jemmy, affecting simplicity,"was there a thorn in the seat? |
47386 | Shall we have a bit of moon, think you, presently? |
47386 | Shall you have time to assist me? |
47386 | So you think the wretched man perished in one of the pots? |
47386 | T''parish paid one burying: who was to pay me for digging her up and putting her in ageean, if she died once maire? 47386 Then Tom opens his eyes and looks at un and ses,''Owt fresh?'' |
47386 | Then how comes it filled? |
47386 | Then how should it be? |
47386 | Thou''rt none boune to Arncliffe to- neet? |
47386 | We can gi''thee a bed if thou likes: it''s no but a poor one, but it''s none so bad-- eh, lass? |
47386 | What do you mean by deserting me like this? |
47386 | What do you mean? 47386 What do you mean?" |
47386 | What do you mean? |
47386 | What hast a''been thinking on then, Job? 47386 What is for dinner to- day?" |
47386 | What is the matter? |
47386 | What? |
47386 | When will he shave off his beard? |
47386 | Where was the cellarer? |
47386 | Who are the Boggart and Peggy? |
47386 | Why, Peter,said his loving spouse,"whativer is t''matter wi''thee? |
47386 | You care nothing about a goose, do you? |
47386 | You dug her up at once, of course, man? |
47386 | You have had some liquor this morning, I suppose? |
47386 | ''And who do you think is going to pay a shilling a- piece to go by the packet? |
47386 | ''Are you going home to- night?'' |
47386 | ''Do you think that I will go to Selby in a waggon, or Miss H----n either? |
47386 | ''Dost a''like it?'' |
47386 | ''Now, then,''thinks I,''how am I ever to sup my te- a? |
47386 | ''What dost a''mean by having a standing- up shadow and solid too?'' |
47386 | ''What''s that, Peter?'' |
47386 | ''Who do you mean will go?'' |
47386 | ''Who is they?'' |
47386 | ''Will ye hev some more?'' |
47386 | --"What do you mean?" |
47386 | --"Why, my good sir, what makes you think so?" |
47386 | --"Will you believe your own eyes?" |
47386 | --''Weel, James,''ses she,''what''s ta doing wi''thysen noo?'' |
47386 | ----?" |
47386 | A friend, when he heard that I was collecting such material, exclaimed,"What are you about? |
47386 | A person coming up, asked,"What road are you for?" |
47386 | And also he said to Mr. Stainthorpe,"Am I advertised in the Newcastle papers?" |
47386 | And what dost a''think he seed? |
47386 | And when she gave it to him she added,"Now, Johnny, honey, you''ll get these deeds made the same as the others?" |
47386 | Are ye married?" |
47386 | Are you in earnest?" |
47386 | Are you the person who wrote to me?" |
47386 | As I stood gazing thereon a man advanced towards me, and said,''Where shall we find bread for so great a multitude?'' |
47386 | At length Metcalf said,"Did not you hear something speak in the church?" |
47386 | But how are we to go?'' |
47386 | But what women ai n''t got''em? |
47386 | But who is this that has caused them to err? |
47386 | Charges of the most gross immorality have been brought against James Naylor, whether truly or falsely who can now decide? |
47386 | Could this not have been his wife, impatient at him leaving his bed and rambling about so early? |
47386 | Did the Catholics build that too?" |
47386 | Did you say your prayers in it?" |
47386 | Dost thou see how it''s pouring? |
47386 | For why should priests be always grave? |
47386 | Hast a''come to steal my apples and pears?" |
47386 | Hast a''made_ thy_ will, Tommy?" |
47386 | He exclaimed, seemingly pleased,"Have I?" |
47386 | He said,"Have you heard that Old Sammy''s murdered?" |
47386 | He says ageean,''What does this mean, Peter?'' |
47386 | He smoked for ten minutes more, and then said:"And what brought thee this road?" |
47386 | He then told me that he had taken the old man by the neck, and was afraid he had killed him; and I said,''Surely thou hast not hurt the old man?'' |
47386 | He went up to the room in which his brother lay, and began--"Weel, Tommy, an''hoo art a''?" |
47386 | His supplication, as I afterwards heard, would have melted any heart, crying,''What will become of me? |
47386 | How was money to be raised? |
47386 | I inquired of him,''How wast thou before thy sight was restored?'' |
47386 | I mean who made the clock strike?'' |
47386 | I said, in a contemptuous manner,''I have also been informed that thou hast been visited with visions or trances; what hast thou seen?'' |
47386 | I went up to him and said,''Come, Mr. Nicholson, wo n''t you go home? |
47386 | I''d kenned her afore, a piece back; soa shoo comes oop to me, an''shoo ses,''Why, James, lad, is that thee?'' |
47386 | If I''d dug her up and she lived ever seah( so) long, what would ha''t''rate- payers''a said teah( to) me?" |
47386 | Is it so sad to be a parson? |
47386 | It''s like I should come down to get a whipping, is n''t it?" |
47386 | Jemmy heard every word that had been said, and he sat chuckling to himself, and muttered,"So thou''lt come again to- morrow night, wilt thou? |
47386 | Just as it disappeared my friend said,''Did you see that?'' |
47386 | Metcalf, however, pressing the reward upon him, was asked,"Can you see very well?" |
47386 | Mrs. Nicholson at length said,''Come, lasses, ca n''t you raise a song? |
47386 | Nicholson?" |
47386 | Noo, Tommy, hoo wast a''thinking o''leaving thy money?" |
47386 | Noo, who wast a''thinking o''making thy heir, James?" |
47386 | On hearing two of them cock their pieces, he asked,"What do you want with him?" |
47386 | Once in particular, hearing a cough, they said one to another,"What is that?" |
47386 | Or did the Bishop( not the Earl) of Rochester''s poems on the man- like properties of a lady''s fan ever impeach his orthodoxy in the least?'' |
47386 | Phoebe and I were sitting by t''fire, when all at once I ses to my old woman,''Phoebe, lass, where''s Rachel Anne? |
47386 | Shall I fling him in again, my lord? |
47386 | So he thowt,''What am I to do next? |
47386 | Soa I taks a cup i''my hand; and then says he,''Weant ye hev sum sugar and cre- am?'' |
47386 | Soa t''fellow says to me,''Is there owt partickler ye''d like?'' |
47386 | Soa then there comes a smart chap wi''a tray full of cups o''tea, and he says to me,''Will ye hev sum?'' |
47386 | Such occurrences as the following frequently happened:--''Well, Snowden, how do you do?'' |

47386 | The common question of the whole neighbourhood was,''What had I been doing?'' |
47386 | The first question he asked Mr. Stainthorpe was,"Do you belong to York?" |
47386 | Then John Wroe took the prophetic rod, and thrusting it towards Lindsay, thundered forth,"Dost thou come to defy Israel? |
47386 | They asked me, if I had found the pistol, would I really have shot the Bishop? |
47386 | They both rose on his entrance, and he, accosting Martin, asked,"Is not your name Jonathan Martin?" |
47386 | To this he refused to accede, and ultimately succeeded in persuading the Indian( African?) |
47386 | To which, of course, I answered,''Yes; did you?'' |
47386 | Tozer got up and said,"Friends, what must be my feelings at this time? |
47386 | Was it by this woman who tossed him about? |
47386 | What art a''doing i''yond water- pit? |

47386 | When his horse was freed, he asked,"Is there no other road?" |
47386 | When the train drew near to York, the ticket- collector came round, and exclaimed at this half- ticket,"Where''s the child?" |
47386 | Where was he? |
47386 | Where were they next to be conveyed to, so as to be readily removed? |
47386 | Which wilt a''have-- a pair o''my list breeches and rabbit- skin coat, or my old housekeeper''s petticoats and gown?" |

46223 | But is not the true unmixed friendship of a charming woman something very sweet? |
46223 | But was not this storm necessary for the dwellers on the deep? |
46223 | But what do I care about politics? |
46223 | But what do I hear? |
46223 | But what was the result? |
46223 | But where is my Judy? |
46223 | But wherefore do I urge this? |
46223 | Can I be blind at such repeated proofs of special interposition in my favour? |
46223 | Can anybody wonder that such institutions have frequently goaded the unhappy people to despair and rebellion? |
46223 | Can not I string common- places as well as another upon occasion? |
46223 | Canning was but a transient vision; and how are his successors employed? |
46223 | Confess it now,--you are a Jew, ar''n''t you?" |
46223 | Dearest Julia, will you drive with me to Plâs Newydd, Lord Anglesea''s park in Anglesea? |
46223 | Did not my life hang upon a hair? |
46223 | Did you ever hear of such mad visions as haunt me here? |
46223 | Do I then want phrases? |
46223 | Do not these on this very account wear the appearance of the bitterest irony? |
46223 | Do you remember Clementi Brentano? |
46223 | Do you remember the young parson at Bray? |
46223 | Does this mean that William wanted no rein to ride John Bull? |
46223 | Even happiness, supposing it to be attained, always brings with it the bitter thought, How long will it last? |
46223 | For what is enjoyment without security? |
46223 | Had this spiritual individual whom I call_ myself_, any previous existence connected with another form? |
46223 | Has he distinguished himself in a revolution, or a counter- revolution? |
46223 | Has it not ever been the many who have proscribed and persecuted them? |
46223 | Have I described him to you? |
46223 | Have they whiskey there?" |
46223 | Have you not enough of this yet, dear Julia? |
46223 | He asked me if I had yet seen many of the curiosities of Ireland? |
46223 | He robbed the public of an inestimable treasure; but who can blame him? |
46223 | He was asked"how much a cubic foot of wood weighed?" |
46223 | How many men have called, and do call, themselves after his name; and how many are_ true_ Christians? |
46223 | How then was it possible for a nearly barbarous people to erect such masses, or to transport them thirty miles, the distance of the_ nearest_ quarry? |
46223 | I gave him leave, and asked, laughing, what adventure he had in hand? |
46223 | I have met with few descriptions that have amused me more: and my translation,--extremely good, is it not? |
46223 | I hug myself amazingly on this discovery;--who knows if it will not throw some light on Chinese mythology? |
46223 | I must ask one more question;--why ruins have so much stronger an effect on the mind than the highest perfect specimen of architectural beauty? |
46223 | I must inquire into it immediately,--a secret of state perhaps,--who knows? |
46223 | I rang for him, recapitulated the above facts, and asked, looking earnestly at him, if he had found nothing? |
46223 | I therefore asked,"Will Fortune be more favourable to me in more serious projects?" |
46223 | I turned and saw-- nothing:--But how? |
46223 | I understand you,"said he laughing; and called to the chief of his eunuchs,"Musa, how many daughters have I?" |
46223 | I wonder whether Providence also will bestow an Order on me? |
46223 | If a minister or a general is a great man,--who can deny that the best of cooks, the loveliest of opera- dancers, has great merit? |
46223 | If we can scarcely conceive that_ all_ will become new, how can we so suddenly conceive a new_ All_? |
46223 | Invocations, prayers, promises, were in vain:--Was it a smuggler allured to this coast by the ample facilities it offers? |
46223 | Is he a warrior or a statesman? |
46223 | Is it not by her most magnificent and sublime spectacles that she awakens our hearts to emotions of piety? |
46223 | Is it not obvious that he jests at Providence and its omnipotence? |
46223 | Is not enjoyment and well- being manifestly throughout the world the positive natural state of animated beings? |
46223 | Is not suffering, evil, organic imperfection or distortion, the negative shadow in this general brightness? |
46223 | Is not this-- to say nothing of the immorality-- in the highest degree low and undignified? |
46223 | Is this selfishness? |
46223 | Madame de Rothschild was the first: she asked, whether her wishes would be fulfilled? |
46223 | Many clergymen still ask,"Do you believe in the Devil?" |
46223 | My presents please you, then? |
46223 | N''étaient ils pas tous gros et gras commes des monstres? |
46223 | Now, dear Julia, what do you think of me? |
46223 | Now, dear Julia,''est- ce moi ou le diable qui écrira le reste?'' |
46223 | O''Connell''s?" |
46223 | On the other side, Length of days was denied him: What were his works and his deeds? |
46223 | Passages of this sort ought certainly to be differently understood: for how could they be reconciled with the indispensable laws of our station? |
46223 | Perhaps you send your pious commands from afar? |
46223 | Pity he did not answer,"How much does a gold coin weigh?" |
46223 | Pointing to a good crop, he cried out with enthusiasm,"Is not that a magnificent sight?" |
46223 | Shall I send you a specimen? |
46223 | Shall I then prepare for myself such an innocent festival, and fly across the sea to you? |
46223 | She cried out eagerly, while she slapped my arm impatiently with her little velvet hand,"Come, are you afraid? |
46223 | She frightened him by suddenly calling out in her sleep,"Will the Premier stand or fall?" |
46223 | Should not I have been a perfect fool, now, to distress myself without a cause? |
46223 | Some may ask,''A quoi bon tout cela?'' |
46223 | Stinging enough, is it not, Julia? |
46223 | The answers had always some double meaning; for instance,''Shall we have a good bed?'' |
46223 | The breadth, power, truth and life of the old masters, their technical knowledge of colouring,--where are they now to be found? |
46223 | The conversation fell upon her works, and she asked me how I liked her Salvator Rosa? |
46223 | The road branched off into two divisions, and I asked her which I must take to reach Derrinane Abbey? |
46223 | This great man has anything but the face of a man of genius,--and who knows whether posterity will think his deeds betray more than his face? |
46223 | Thus captivating, and easily captivated, was it a wonder if he stole the palm even out of the hand of Edward Lynch? |
46223 | Walking quickly up to the ominous chair, she asked the chamberlain on duty, with lips quivering with passion,''Where was her seat?'' |
46223 | Was this a Dutch woman? |
46223 | Was truth on the side of the fanatical herd who gave the poison- cup to Socrates? |
46223 | What are these but insignificant clouds, so long as the sun of the mind shines clear in our inward heaven? |
46223 | What could the royal founder propose to himself by this singular law? |
46223 | What is a gentleman? |
46223 | What is a''Monkey?'' |
46223 | What is conscience? |
46223 | What is good or evil fortune? |
46223 | What is the modern_ Trilliliren_ compared with the sublimity of that old church music? |
46223 | What is unhappy man in conflict with physical evil,--and where, then, is the freedom of his will? |
46223 | What may the old boy have been?--perhaps myself in another garment? |
46223 | What revolution was it that threw this tract of sand here? |
46223 | What will be the consequences of his death? |
46223 | What would an illiberal one have done? |
46223 | What would our_ Regiérungs Räthe_( Government counsellors) say to such a scheme? |
46223 | What would the haughty Duke have said, if he could have known how his remains would be treated by such ignoble hands? |
46223 | What, you wo n''t get up? |
46223 | Whence comes it, thought I, that a heart so loving is not social? |
46223 | Who can blame them, therefore, under circumstances, for preferring the chambers of princes, especially if they can lord it there? |
46223 | Who can look intently on the sublime and holy beauty of those glittering worlds, and not be penetrated by the deepest and the sweetest emotions? |
46223 | Who can withstand entreaties so humorously moving? |
46223 | Who could then have predicted that he would so soon be ignominiously beaten by a mob, and shot as a criminal? |
46223 | Who ought to bear the blame? |
46223 | Who would not, without a moment''s hesitation, give everything in the world to enjoy the blessedness of being perfectly good? |
46223 | Whose mouth does not water when he sees Dalgetty, the soldier of fortune, display at the table a prowess even greater than in the fight? |
46223 | Why did you not put on your uniform to come to see me? |
46223 | Why is not this sublime instrument oftener introduced into church music? |
46223 | Why not employ every art in its highest perfection, in order to consecrate to God the noblest, the finest works that the human faculties can produce? |
46223 | Why should we not devote all our best powers to the honour of him who gave them? |
46223 | Why was it so long on the road?--''Quien sabbe?'' |
46223 | Will you, too, throw dust[80] in my eyes, dear Julia? |
46223 | Without printing, there would have been no Luther;--and until that epoch, had Christianity really been able to make its way? |
46223 | Would people formerly have believed that such a ministering spirit could be summoned by anything but Solomon''s signet? |
46223 | Wär''i nu nich a rechter Narr gewesen, mi zu gräme ohne Noth? |
46223 | Young shot- up things are laughing by stealth behind our backs: flying out and in; and when one of them asks"What are the old people about?" |
46223 | [ 114] To add a word in earnest: I would ask, who does not honour the humane motives which gave rise to the Bible and Missionary societies? |
46223 | [ 129]"And where do you come from?" |
46223 | [ 145] Is not that beautiful? |
46223 | [ 30] How may this be effected? |
46223 | [ 47]''Art living, dearest, or dead?'' |
46223 | [ 83] The verses alluded to are these:"Oh what were Love made for, if''tis not the same Through joy and through torment, through glory and shame? |
46223 | _ April 6th._ Can you tell me why all objects reflected by art give us only pleasure, whereas all realities have at least one defective side? |
46223 | _ Cashel, Oct. 12th, 1828._ DEAREST FRIEND, Why do I like so much to write to you? |
46223 | _ Craig y Don, August 9th, early._ Do you recollect this name? |
46223 | _ June 23rd._ What say you, dear Julia, to a breakfast given to two thousand people? |
46223 | _ Kenmare, Sept. 28th, 1828._ BELOVED FRIEND.--Was it the devil or not then? |
46223 | and has Jeremiah brought you a new serious sand- box for the purpose from B----? |
46223 | and what can outward fortune avail where the internal equilibrium is destroyed? |
46223 | and why she was wandering alone in such weather? |
46223 | by the painting of her sunsets, by the music of the rolling deep, by the forms of her mountains and her rocks? |
46223 | cries he, laughing,"did you hear the fiddle, my good Scaramouch? |
46223 | do you think life is not as sweet to me as it is to you, because I am only a poor fisherman? |
46223 | es tu là, mon enfant?" |
46223 | est elle autre chose?'' |
46223 | hab i ni recht? |
46223 | had Christianity rendered men more merciful, more moral, more benign? |
46223 | has not Parry, with his_ object_, been obliged to sail three times to the north pole, and at last return without attaining it? |
46223 | here a new fearful doubt besets me: Will all the inhabitants of the earth ever_ be called_ Christians? |
46223 | is reserved for great and weighty things? |
46223 | is that on the sea? |
46223 | or a superstitious peasant who took my unhappy person for a ghost? |
46223 | or did ever a witch burnt for sorcery produce its equal? |
46223 | or do you bring me tidings from my far distant home? |
46223 | or of that which burnt Huss? |
46223 | or of that which crucified Jesus? |
46223 | or,"How much brains does a dolt''s head contain?" |
46223 | others, what right have we to meddle in other people''s affairs? |
46223 | que cherchez- vous ici?" |
46223 | said I;"what makes you think I must be a Jew?" |
46223 | why do you ask food of me, when the great storehouse is before you?" |
46223 | would not, perhaps, the stagnant and motionless air have been yet more destructive to them? |
8463 | But, what is the act which has awakened all those filthy curs, and put them in motion? 8463 I suppose it is illuminated for the return of Napoleon?" |
8463 | Now, when your laughing fit is over, let me ask you, whether you ever heard of a_ Plot_ and_ Insurrection_ like this before? 8463 Was it any_ fault_ in an Englishman, living in the country, to come to London to take part at a_ Meeting of Englishmen in distress_? |
8463 | What is that? |
8463 | What must the people_ in the country_ think of all this? 8463 What,"said I, raising my voice still higher,"back one of your notes for a thousand pounds? |
8463 | What,said he, in a loud voice,"what, refuse to sign your name?" |
8463 | Where, then, is the ground of all this infamous abuse? 8463 ''The Profit of the Earth is for all;''Yet how deplorably destitute are the great Mass of the People? 8463 --Instead of calling a meeting like this, why not call a public county meeting, and meet the question manfully and openly? 8463 ?--Only seven years. 8463 After some time I obtained a hearing, and I began by inquiring who and what Mr. Hobhouse was? 8463 And in what a state are the people who are so much within their power? |
8463 | And this is the age of our_ glory_, is it? |
8463 | And, if this be_ not true,_ why does not some one of the numerous tax- eating tribe attempt to prove it to be false? |
8463 | And, is he never to open his lips at any time, or at any place? |
8463 | And, was he never to answer in any way? |
8463 | And, what then? |
8463 | Are they not content with this superiority? |
8463 | As, however, I passed up the street, Mr. Tynte, the present Member for that town, accosted me, saying,"Well, Mr. Hunt, what are_ you_ come here? |
8463 | At length I said aloud to the Sheriff,"Sir, as your constables have refused to obey your orders, will you authorise_ me_ to bring Watson before you?" |
8463 | Baronet and the worthy Squire were two of the VISITING MAGISTRATES? |
8463 | Before, however, I could put the question to Mr. Castles, he inquired where I was going? |
8463 | But I take leave to ask, what is become of Mr. More? |
8463 | But, I have heard it asked:"would you, then, in_ no case_, have soldiers called in during an election? |
8463 | But, how often have we heard of_ resistance_ being recommended? |
8463 | But, what say the Correspondents of the Board of Agriculture? |
8463 | But, where was the_ harm?_ Where was the justification for all this vile, this atrocious abuse? |
8463 | But, where was the_ harm?_ Where was the justification for all this vile, this atrocious abuse? |
8463 | But, whose fault was this? |
8463 | But, why should a city be_ burnt down_, unless protected by_ soldiers_? |
8463 | Can any one doubt that the Ministers ordered their tools to send me here, that their underlings might exert their petty tyranny, in order to annoy me? |
8463 | Can you be made to believe that they are sincere when they tell you that they wish for a reform of any sort? |
8463 | Could he write and publish this from_ rebellious,_ from_ treasonable_ motives? |
8463 | Could not the settled reputation of being the most consummate of_ knaves_ content them? |
8463 | Do not freemasons and others parade about with flags? |
8463 | Gentlemen, can you want any further proof of the political hypocrisy of such men as Mr. Charles Elton, and Mr. Mills, and Mr. Castle? |
8463 | Have not they their full share of the press at their command? |
8463 | He asked what was the matter? |
8463 | How came these newspaper writers to_ know_ the contents of your letter? |
8463 | How do you know that_ he_ is not going to propose himself?" |
8463 | How was the peace_ kept then_? |
8463 | How were riots suppressed in those times? |
8463 | Hunt?" |
8463 | I ask them, then, Was it_ unavoidable_ to keep up an army at the expense, including the Ordnance, of 26,736,067 pounds? |
8463 | I asked if it was not a good note? |
8463 | I asked them if they did not expect the attendance of any other of the public characters to whom they had written? |
8463 | I called at Cobbett''s lodgings, in Catherine- street, and asked the young ones, rather sarcastically, if they meant to attend the meeting? |
8463 | I then inquired what was the nature of the memorial or address which they meant to submit to the Prince Regent? |
8463 | I therefore demanded if the surveyor was present to answer for himself? |
8463 | If I were to say this to him, would he not be fully justified in asking me, why_ I did not myself_ act upon the principle of my own advice? |
8463 | If Sir Samuel Romilly were for reform, why should he be so loath to make the declaration? |
8463 | If the man elected can take the public money, is not the temptation too great for most men? |
8463 | Is a man bound to endure this in_ silence_? |
8463 | Is it to be imagined, that they did not foresee, and, indeed, that they had not frequently seen, that elections produced fierce and bloody battles? |
8463 | Is not this a pretty stretch of calumny? |
8463 | Is this nothing? |
8463 | Is this_ manly_, is this_ fairness_, is this_ discussion_, is this_ liberty of the press_? |
8463 | It has often been asked, what can_ one man_ do in the House? |
8463 | It may be asked, why then is he not rich, like other men in his profession? |
8463 | Mr. Buxton must have long_ known_ the facts which he so eloquently and so affectingly described; and why did he not then describe them_ sooner_? |
8463 | Mr. Sheriff, turning to Sir Samuel, said,"there you hear, Sir, what the constables say, what can I do more than I have done?" |
8463 | Nay, do you think that they would hesitate one single half moment to be guilty, for such a purpose, of the blackest perjury themselves? |
8463 | No, no; but"the_ rabble_, the_ mob_;"and_ what_ were they? |
8463 | Now, I will candidly appeal to my readers, and ask if ever they heard of a challenge to fight a duel having been delivered in such a way before? |
8463 | On my stepping forward to address that Livery, the Lord Mayor, Scholey, jumped up out of his chair, and exclaimed,"is he a liveryman?" |
8463 | Or were they men and women? |
8463 | SHERIFF--"I hope you feel deep contrition for the deed?" |
8463 | The commencement of their attack was,"Hunt, where''s your wife?" |
8463 | The gentleman inquired in what notes I should like to have the change? |
8463 | The passengers in the first coach also inquired of the coachman whose house it was, and what was the cause of this splendid display? |
8463 | Those who are of the same opinion with my prudent friend will ask, why did you do so? |
8463 | Upon what_ ground_, then, is this outrageous abuse founded? |
8463 | Was ever the like of this performed before in England, or any other country? |
8463 | Was he to endure the calumnies, the unprovoked calumnies, of that paper_ for years_, and never reply a word? |
8463 | Was it necessary, in order to satisfy their ambition, to stand unrivalled through the world for folly as well as for knavery? |
8463 | Was it_ unavoidable_ for as to pay in the same year, on account of the_ deficiencies_ of the Civil List 584,713 pounds? |
8463 | Was it_ unavoidable_ that the Civil List for Scotland should amount to 126,613 pounds? |
8463 | Was it_ unavoidable_ that the expense of the Civil List should, in last year, amount to 1,928,000 pounds? |
8463 | Was it_ unavoidable_ that the other additional allowances to the Royal Family, in that year, should amount to 366,660 pounds? |
8463 | Was it_ unavoidable_ to expend in that year( including) an arrear of the former year, in SECRET SERVICE Money, the sum of 153,446 pounds? |
8463 | Was it_ unavoidable_ to pay_ last year_, out of the taxes for the relief of the_ Poor_ Clergy of the Church of England, the sum of 100,000 pounds? |
8463 | Was there ever violence_ like this_ heard of in this world before? |
8463 | Was this any_ fault_? |
8463 | Was this hundred guineas the price of that slaughter? |
8463 | Were they a species of monsters, unknown to our ancient laws and to the Act of George the Second? |
8463 | What check is there? |
8463 | What did they say of his not having the letter ready to produce? |
8463 | What has he done for the people, or for the cause of Liberty, since he has been elected? |
8463 | What have you had from them but talk? |
8463 | What he says is certainly true; and is he not to say it, because the saying it may be disagreeable to those who live upon the taxes thus collected? |
8463 | What stand have they made? |
8463 | What think you of this, John Gull? |
8463 | What, then, is a calumniated man to do? |
8463 | What_ can_ the people at large make out of such a strange medley? |
8463 | Whatever company you went into, the first question was,"Well, what do you think of the Emperor Alexander? |
8463 | Whence have_ they_ derived this privilege of assaulting him with impunity? |
8463 | Why break silence after so long a period? |
8463 | Why do you not stay and answer the questions?" |
8463 | Why name me at all? |
8463 | Why not laugh at me and my trash? |
8463 | Why should I despair of this, after what I have seen? |
8463 | Why suppose any such case? |
8463 | Why was this meeting not to have a flag, if it chose it? |
8463 | Why, that it was a proof of his being a_ liar, and a scoundrel._ Of what_ was_ it a proof? |
8463 | Why, then, are they in a passion? |
8463 | Why, then, have we not peace? |
8463 | Will any man say that the Regent would have done this, had it not been for the great public meetings held in Spafields and other places? |
8463 | Would it tend to enable the Landlords and Farmers to pay the interest of the Debt? |
8463 | Would it tend to lessen the mass of misery that is now in existence? |
8463 | Would it tend to make the world believe that the Government is good, and is beloved by the people? |
8463 | Would they say this? |
8463 | Would you fling his prescriptions into the kennel? |
8463 | Would you rather see a city_ burnt down_?" |
8463 | _ Quere_, has it been lowered again, now that the price of provisions is fallen? |
8463 | _ Who_ was it that_ authorized them_ to publish this account of your letter? |
8463 | _ who_ were to burn the city? |
8463 | a year,) what will be the fate of those who are left behind, without the means of flying from the evil?] |
8463 | and do the advocates of corruption suppose, that our law- makers had not this in their view? |
8463 | and was this nothing? |
8463 | do you support the ballot too?" |
8463 | have you not seen Blucher with his whiskers? |
8463 | have you not seen the King? |
8463 | is this_ rebellious_ on the part of Mr. Preston? |
8463 | not seen the Emperor, and not seen Marshal Blucher''s whiskers?" |
8463 | said he,"would you besiege the man in his own house?" |
8463 | surely you have seen the Don Cossack? |
8463 | tell me whose house this is?" |
8463 | what do you think of Blucher? |
8463 | what is_ not_ inflammatory now- a- days? |
34238 | And,said I,"do you think that all those who made that heap there are gone to the devil?" |
34238 | Aye,said I,"but how am I, who was never here before, to know_ what is_ right, my boy?" |
34238 | Do people_ go_ it? |
34238 | Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail: saying, When will the new moon be gone that we may sell corn? 34238 I do n''t recollect, indeed; but what are you all pursuing him for?" |
34238 | The_ dog_,said I, in a very mild tone,"why, Ewing, there is the spot; and could we not see it, upon this smooth green surface, if it were there?" |
34238 | This place sends Members to Parliament, do n''t it? |
34238 | Well, then,said I,"is it not better for them to pay you for working_ on their land_?" |
34238 | Well,said I,"but_ how comes Beresford to live here now_, if the living be given to another man?" |
34238 | What do you deal in? |
34238 | What has he been stealing? |
34238 | What is_ carrying_? |
34238 | What_ times_,said I;"was there ever a finer summer, a finer harvest, and is there not an_ old_ wheat- rick in every farm- yard?" |
34238 | Where then,said I,"is Thursley?" |
34238 | Where? |
34238 | Who are Members_ now_? |
34238 | Whose beautiful place is that? |
34238 | Why? |
34238 | _ Peasants!_ you dirty- necked devil, and where got you that word? 34238 _ Right on_,"said I,"what over_ that bank_ into the wheat?" |
34238 | _ They?_said I,"who is_ they_?" |
34238 | _ They?_said I,"who is_ they_?" |
34238 | --"Nor at Andover?" |
34238 | --"Nor at Marlborough?" |
34238 | --Suck_ what_ in, Mr. Hitchins? |
34238 | --The other day a gentleman( and a man of general good sense too) said to me:"What a deal of wet we have: what do you think of the weather_ now_?" |
34238 | --This is very true; and what can be better? |
34238 | A correspondent asks me what is meant by the statements which he sees in the_ Register_, relative to the_ hop- duty_? |
34238 | A young man in the room( I having come to a pause) said:"But, Sir, were there no poor in Catholic times?" |
34238 | A_ right_? |
34238 | After all, what is the reflection now called for? |
34238 | After we came out of the cathedral, Richard said,"Why, Papa, nobody can build such places_ now_, can they?" |
34238 | And Sunday- tolls? |
34238 | And again I say,_ who_ is all this venison and game_ for_? |
34238 | And are not these_ improvements_, and are they not a proof of an addition to the national capital?" |
34238 | And are we to get rid of our people in the South, and supply the places of them by horses and machines? |
34238 | And as to the_ time_ thus spent, hunting is inseparable from_ early rising_: and with habits of early rising, who ever wanted time for any business? |
34238 | And besides, where did the hands come from? |
34238 | And can it be of any use to expend money in this sort of way upon poor creatures that have not half a bellyful of food? |
34238 | And could they be made at all without a great abundance of hands? |
34238 | And does any one affect to say that this is wrong? |
34238 | And does it yield_ anything to the public_, to whom it belongs? |
34238 | And does this House, then,"work well?" |
34238 | And how do the conjurers at Whitehall know this? |
34238 | And how is my Lord Howick, born and bred up in Northumberland, to know how to judge of a population suitable to Suffolk? |
34238 | And if there really be an enemy anywhere there about, would it not be a wise way to leave the worthless country to him, to use it after his own way? |
34238 | And is it wrong that one man should possess so much? |
34238 | And is there never to be an_ end_ of these things? |
34238 | And is this"prosperity?" |
34238 | And shall he never see an end to this state of things? |
34238 | And that is the life, is it, of an_ English farmer_? |
34238 | And the House did not listen to him, surely? |
34238 | And then, again, why this farm? |
34238 | And these rows of new houses, added to the Wen, are proofs of growing prosperity, are they? |
34238 | And this is"_ prosperity_,"is it? |
34238 | And tread- mills, then? |
34238 | And upon what ground is this? |
34238 | And what could any body ask for more? |
34238 | And what did he have all this money_ for_? |
34238 | And what have they done? |
34238 | And what have you got then? |
34238 | And what is meaned by"fear of the Lord,"but the fear of doing wrong, or of persevering in doing wrong? |
34238 | And what is the bargain, I want to know,_ with yearly servants_? |
34238 | And what says recent experience? |
34238 | And when they can, even in the Parliament, be received with cheering? |
34238 | And whence is this fear to arise? |
34238 | And where did the money come from? |
34238 | And where, indeed, is the foundation of the Law, to take from any man, be he who he may, the right of catching and using these animals? |
34238 | And who can possibly object to this, except those, who, amongst them, now divide the possession or benefit of this property? |
34238 | And why a barrack? |
34238 | And why does this curse continue? |
34238 | And why is two shillings a bushel kept on? |
34238 | And why should reason not be listened to? |
34238 | And why? |
34238 | And will the Government pretend that"Providence"did it? |
34238 | And will the_ Edinburgh Reviewers_ again find fault with me for cutting at this bawling, canting crew? |
34238 | And, can this operation, then, add to the"national wealth"? |
34238 | And, have you not, since about April, 1819, had absolute prohibition? |
34238 | And, in short, do they ever taste, or even hear of, any game, or any venison, from the New Forest? |
34238 | And, what are the_ hares_ kept_ for_ here? |
34238 | And, yet, are we to be banished for life, if we endeavour to show, that this House does not"work well?" |
34238 | And_ when_ did he give it up? |
34238 | And_ why_? |
34238 | Are not these trees worth a pound apiece? |
34238 | Are these things nothing? |
34238 | Are these things_ always_ to be carried on in this way? |
34238 | Are they for the Royal Family? |
34238 | As to the mercantile and manufacturing people, what is the land to expect from them? |
34238 | As to the_ nature_ of this"adjustment,"is it not most distinctly described in the Norfolk Petition? |
34238 | At Farnham the park and palace remain in the hands of a Bishop of Winchester, as they have done for about eight hundred years: but why is this? |
34238 | Aye, and to find house- rent, clothing, bedding and fuel out of it? |
34238 | But can this_ benefit_ the farmer and landlord? |
34238 | But does the reader remember James''s project for"making Ireland as happy as England"? |
34238 | But had the Government done its part; had it saved us from disgrace? |
34238 | But how is this Wen to be_ dispersed_? |
34238 | But how much better to give the men higher wages, and let them do more work? |
34238 | But how was I to harangue? |
34238 | But if reason were consulted, she would ask what pretensions these have to a preference? |
34238 | But is it_ nothing_ to keep a team of four horses, for five months in the year, on the produce of two acres of land? |
34238 | But is the_ sort_ the same? |
34238 | But the labourer, was I to have no feeling for him? |
34238 | But what are the_ women_ to do? |
34238 | But what did he mean by my_ politics_? |
34238 | But what do people mean? |
34238 | But what has the formation of the New Forest to do with this? |
34238 | But what is_ your Church_? |
34238 | But where is now the goodly audit ale? |
34238 | But, Gentlemen, is it right for the nation to keep on paying for life crowds of young fellows such as make up the greater part of this_ dead weight_? |
34238 | But, at any rate, what has all this to do with the necessity of emigration? |
34238 | But, besides that Mr. Drummond is very worthy of his estate, what chance should I have of getting it if it came to a_ scramble_? |
34238 | But, indeed, what estates might he not purchase? |
34238 | But_ who_ built them? |
34238 | But_ why_ should men, why should_ any_ men, work_ hard_? |
34238 | Can any man tell why we should still be paying five, or six, or seven shillings a bushel for salt, instead of one? |
34238 | Can any system of husbandry equal this? |
34238 | Can beggarly stuff, like larches and firs, ever be profitable to this extent? |
34238 | Can not each acre yield ten trees a year? |
34238 | Can such a thing_ go on_? |
34238 | Can that half acre cost more than a tenth part as much as the thirty acres? |
34238 | Can they show a group so wretched, so miserable, so truly enslaved as this, in all Spain? |
34238 | Colonel Wodehouse and a man of the name of Hoseason( whence came he?) |
34238 | Could he be_ heaven- born_ that invented such a system? |
34238 | Could he have_ worked_, and worked in the wet, too, with such food? |
34238 | Could not he, or somebody else, give us a portrait of the_ military_ and of the_ naval parson_? |
34238 | Did Jesus Christ and Saint Paul talk about fine houses? |
34238 | Did he, when he was ordained, talk anything about a fine house to live in? |
34238 | Did you want me to stop till the_ twentieth_ century? |
34238 | Do they come out of_ trade_ and_ commerce_? |
34238 | Do you know this from_ experience_? |
34238 | Do you mean to call upon our big gentlemen at Whitehall for them to compel the French to pay tithes? |
34238 | Do you pretend that the nation is_ richer_, because the means of making this barrack have been drawn away from the people in taxes? |
34238 | Does Monsieur de Snip call those improvements, then? |
34238 | Does he insist, that those houses form"an addition to the national capital?" |
34238 | Does it prove that we want no change? |
34238 | Does not this one fact sufficiently characterize the system under which we live? |
34238 | Does not this prove that a change, a great change, is wanted? |
34238 | Does the law say so? |
34238 | Does the reader know what is the price of this load of timber? |
34238 | Does the reader observe that there were three hundred and fifteen thousand, four hundred and seventy- seven_ loads_? |
34238 | Does there want any_ other cause_ to produce crimes? |
34238 | Does this thing"work well,"Mr. Canning? |
34238 | For as to an_ enemy_, where was he to come from? |
34238 | For what were all these country patriots born? |
34238 | For what, I wonder? |
34238 | From such vehicles what are farmers to learn? |
34238 | Good sporting country, except for coursing, and too many flints for that.--What becomes of all the_ water_? |
34238 | Has hell a torment surpassing the wickedness of thy inventor? |
34238 | Has the blessed Jesus_ told you so_?" |
34238 | Has this plan cost so little as two millions of pounds? |
34238 | Have I said that there was any invitation at all? |
34238 | Have they any exports? |
34238 | Have thirty- eight years corrected my taste, or made me a hypercritic in these matters? |
34238 | Have we ever received any evidence, or anything whereon to build a belief, that the interest on these bonds will be paid? |
34238 | He was to be damned unless born again, and how was he to be born again unless he came to the regeneration- shop and gave the fellows money? |
34238 | How are they to pay rent? |
34238 | How are you to expect that they will seek to acquire fortune and fame by study or by application of any kind? |
34238 | How came this that was at Reigate, for instance? |
34238 | How came this writer to know that it was a_ mistaken notion_? |
34238 | How can Peel''s Bill work in a more delightful manner? |
34238 | How can there be ground lost if the crop be larger? |
34238 | How could such hills have bubbled up from beneath? |
34238 | How could waters rolling about have formed such hills? |
34238 | How do we know how skilful, how learned_ they_ were? |
34238 | How is it to be otherwise? |
34238 | How long will fire- engines, steel traps, and spring guns be, in such a state of things, a protection to property? |
34238 | How long will these people starve in the midst of plenty? |
34238 | How should either of them know anything about the eastern, southern, or western counties? |
34238 | How should he? |
34238 | How should he? |
34238 | How should we get on without pensions, sinecures, tithes, and the other"glorious institutions"of this"mighty_ empire_"? |
34238 | How, then,_ came_ this big upon little? |
34238 | How_ dare_ the honourable gentlemen to suppose me capable of such a thought? |
34238 | However, what cares he? |
34238 | I asked a man how I should get to Thursley? |
34238 | I asked two men, who were threshing in a barn, how long it was since their public- house was put down, or dropped? |
34238 | I asked where this Shepperd was NOW? |
34238 | I know that such a man does not lose his estate at once; but, without rents, what is the estate? |
34238 | I pulled up my horse, and said,"Can you tell me my fortune, my dear?" |
34238 | I suppose you will not deny the facts? |
34238 | I will, I think, call upon him( if I can find him out) when I get back, and ask how he does now? |
34238 | I wonder whether Alfred had a thought of anything like this when he was clearing England from her oppressors? |
34238 | If married, how are their miserable families to live on 4_s._ 6_d._ a week? |
34238 | If such be the profit of planting ash, what would be the profit of planting locust, even for poles or stakes? |
34238 | If the law give him ample compensation for every damage that he sustains, in consequence of a trespass on his lands, what right has he to complain? |
34238 | In parting with him, I said,"You do get some_ bacon_ then?" |
34238 | In short, is the honourable and learned Gentleman for putting an end to"_ public credit_"? |
34238 | In such a state of things how are you to expect young men to enter on a course of patient industry? |
34238 | Is a nation made_ rich_ by taking the food and clothing from those who create them, and giving them to those who do nothing of any use? |
34238 | Is it any wonder that a country should be miserable when such notions prevail? |
34238 | Is it any wonder that_ paupers increase_? |
34238 | Is it possible to conceive a viler calling than that of an agent for the carrying on of gambling? |
34238 | Is it that I now look at them with the solemnness of a"professional man,"and not with the enthusiasm and eagerness of an"amateur?" |
34238 | Is it, in short, surprising, if he resort to_ theft_ and_ robbery_? |
34238 | Is not that enough to convince any one of the hellishness of this system? |
34238 | Is not that memorable petition now in the Journals of the House of Commons? |
34238 | Is not the estate worth three or four hundred thousand pounds a year? |
34238 | Is not this a monstrous shame? |
34238 | Is there a man in Parliament that will call for it? |
34238 | Is there a man who will say that this is right? |
34238 | Is there nobody to inquire what becomes of the income of the Crown lands? |
34238 | Is this Mr. Canning''s"_ Sun of Prosperity_?" |
34238 | Is this a cause of"national wealth"? |
34238 | Is this a sign of wise legislation and of good government? |
34238 | Is this the country that laughed at the French for their submissions? |
34238 | Is this the land of"manly hearts?" |
34238 | Is this the way to increase or preserve a nation''s wealth? |
34238 | Is this the"prosperity of the war?" |
34238 | Is this"a church"? |
34238 | Is this"law"? |
34238 | Is this, then, is this"church"a thing to remain untouched? |
34238 | Is this_ worth nothing_? |
34238 | It balances itself naturally enough; but what tossed it up? |
34238 | Let me see: where was I? |
34238 | Like_ protecting_ the Spanish Bonds, I suppose? |
34238 | Money was the measure of value; but if this measure was liable to be three times as large at one time as at another, who could know what to do? |
34238 | Mr. Canning will say,"will you not allow that the owners of these new enclosures and these houses know their own interests? |
34238 | Never since the time of Charles had such disgrace been brought upon the country; and why was this? |
34238 | No? |
34238 | Now, do I wish to insinuate that Mr. B---- asked too much for his farms last year, and that he wished to squeeze the last shilling out of his farmers? |
34238 | Now, if this be the case, ought not Parson Malthus, Lawyer Scarlett, and the rest of that tribe, to turn their attention to the nut- trees? |
34238 | Now, is there a man in his senses who believes that this THING can go on in the present way? |
34238 | Now, then, what did Mr. Canning say? |
34238 | Now, upon the face of the transaction, what_ harm_ could this do the community? |
34238 | Now, what can the South American State show in this way? |
34238 | Now, what ill- natured devil could bring Old Nic Grimshaw into my head in company with these innocent sheep? |
34238 | Now_ why is all this_? |
34238 | Oh, no? |
34238 | On sert Dieu bien à son aise ici?_"That is:"Egad! |
34238 | Or, at least, have they any that any man can speak of with certainty? |
34238 | Persuade them, I suppose, that it is for_ their good_ that English goods should be admitted into France and into St. Domingo with little or no duty? |
34238 | Putting this question to him, would it not check his exultation, and would it not make even Wilmot begin to reflect? |
34238 | Respecting the movements of_ whom_ is wanted this_ alarm- system_? |
34238 | Shall he never have the due reward of his labour? |
34238 | Shall not the land tremble for this; and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? |
34238 | The South West winds have cut them off; and, indeed, how should it be otherwise, if these winds happen to prevail in May, or early in June? |
34238 | The bank lends money I suppose when it chooses; and is not it to be the judge when it shall lend and when it shall not? |
34238 | The distress of agriculture was considerable in magnitude then; but what is it now? |
34238 | The doubling rental? |
34238 | The farm which never yet was left on hand? |
34238 | The impatient hope of the expiring lease? |
34238 | The marsh reclaim''d to most improving land? |
34238 | The miscreants who bribe them? |
34238 | The monster called, by the silly coxcombs of the press,"the metropolis of the empire"? |
34238 | The poor forger is hanged; but where is the prosecutor of the monopolizing farmer, though the_ law_ is as clear in the one case as in the other? |
34238 | The purse- proud tenant, never known to fail? |
34238 | The question, therefore, is, did these men attack, or were they the attacked? |
34238 | The soldier, the commissary, the barrack- master, all the whole tribe, no matter under what_ name_; what keeps them? |
34238 | The village of Kingston was smothered in the town of Portsea; and why? |
34238 | Then would it not be better for the honourable and learned Gentleman to_ hold his tongue_? |
34238 | There was no harm in them that I know of, beyond that of living upon the public; but where were their merits? |
34238 | These make part of the increased capital of the country, do they? |
34238 | They have backs as straight and shoulders as square as heroes of Waterloo; and who can blame them? |
34238 | This gentleman is now a great advocate for_ national faith_; but may not Mr. B---- ask him whether there be no faith to be kept with the landlord? |
34238 | This grass will fat any ox, or sheep; and would not Mr. Palmer like to have ten acres of land that would fat a score of oxen? |
34238 | This is a matter of great public importance; and yet, how, in the present state of things, is an_ investigation_ to be obtained? |
34238 | This was the only reason in the world for their wanting corn to sell at a high price? |
34238 | To be sure, I labour most assiduously to destroy a system of distress and misery; but is that any reason why a_ Lord_ should dislike my politics? |
34238 | True, that these deserve the halter( and some of them may have it yet); but are not the takers of the bribes_ equally_ guilty? |
34238 | Upon George asking me, whether I would not stop to breakfast? |
34238 | Was it created by the union with Scotland; or was it begotten by Pitt and his crew? |
34238 | Was it flattery? |
34238 | Was it honey that dropped from my lips? |
34238 | Was it hypocrisy; was it ostentation? |
34238 | Was not he my_ countryman_ too? |
34238 | Was not this_ always_ so? |
34238 | Was such a thing as this ever before heard of in the world? |
34238 | Was this done with regard to the loyalists of_ America_ in the reign of the good jubilee George III.? |
34238 | Was this_ instinct_ in either dog or hares? |
34238 | We hear loud outcries against the poor- rates; the_ enormous_ poor- rates; the_ all- devouring_ poor- rates; but what are the facts? |
34238 | We may talk of sparkling eyes and snowy bosoms as long as we please; but what are these with a croaking, masculine voice? |
34238 | Well,_ loyal gentlemen_, why do not you petition, then, to be relieved from tithes? |
34238 | Well: and what then, Jerry? |
34238 | Were such things as these ever before heard of in the world? |
34238 | What are all his riches to me? |
34238 | What are the farmers to do with them? |
34238 | What are the shop and the shop- keeper for? |
34238 | What are these deer_ for_? |
34238 | What better reason can be given for a man''s going about the country and dining at fairs and markets? |
34238 | What but fear of exposure prevents thousands upon thousands of offences, moral as well as legal? |
34238 | What but fear of the law restrains many men from committing crimes? |
34238 | What can be plainer than this? |
34238 | What can be the cause of this perverseness? |
34238 | What can be the_ end_ of it, but dreadful convulsion? |
34238 | What can this be_ for_? |
34238 | What comparison is there to be made between states of society so essentially different? |
34238 | What could a revolution do for him_ more_ than this? |
34238 | What could you find there to be snatched from everlasting oblivion, except for the purpose of being execrated?" |
34238 | What do they arise from, then? |
34238 | What do you mean else? |
34238 | What do"my lords"care about this? |
34238 | What do_ we_ want with armies and barracks and chaplains in those woods? |
34238 | What do_ we_ want with these wildernesses? |
34238 | What does anybody want with them; but_ we_, above all the rest of the world? |
34238 | What education, what moral precepts, can quiet the gnawings and ragings of hunger? |
34238 | What is it_ for_? |
34238 | What is the_ end_? |
34238 | What is to be the_ end_ of this? |
34238 | What is to be_ gained_ by putting this man in the place of any of those who are in power now? |
34238 | What is to become of that multitude of towns that has been stuck up around it? |
34238 | What is to prevent this, if the interest of Exchequer Bills be raised, as the broad sheet tells us it is to be? |
34238 | What lifted up the big? |
34238 | What more is wanted than to act on the prayer of that very petition? |
34238 | What nation could ever carry on its affairs, if it had to take into consideration the price of corn? |
34238 | What other can be produced by a system, which allows the_ felon_ better food, better clothing, and better lodging than the_ honest labourer_? |
34238 | What redress, then, have the people of the county? |
34238 | What rule is there, with regard to population and poor- laws, which can apply to both cases? |
34238 | What should_ he_ want high prices for? |
34238 | What sort of_ breakfast_ would this man have had in a mess of_ cold potatoes_? |
34238 | What the devil should they come to this hill for, then? |
34238 | What the devil, some one would say, could have become of all this timber? |
34238 | What then? |
34238 | What then_ do_ the labourers get? |
34238 | What was this, then? |
34238 | What were these four churches_ built for_ within the distance of three miles? |
34238 | What will Londonderry bet that, he is not the_ tenant of the public_ before this day five years? |
34238 | What will the consequences be? |
34238 | What would be said of the''Squire who should take a fox- hound out to find partridges for him to shoot at? |
34238 | What would be their state, and that of their landlords, if the wheat were to come down again to 4, 5, or even 6 shillings a bushels? |
34238 | What would he do with these cows, if he had not this crop? |
34238 | What, I ask, for about the thousandth time I ask it; what were these twenty churches built for? |
34238 | What, Mr. Tripp, is it a fine house that you have been appointed and ordained to live in? |
34238 | What, in the way of Corn Bill, can you have, Gentlemen, beyond absolute prohibition? |
34238 | What, short of such laws, can prevent_ starving men_ from coming to take away the dinners of those who have plenty? |
34238 | What, then!--Ought not this church to be repealed? |
34238 | What, then, is this debt of the United States? |
34238 | What, then, is this"an improvement?" |
34238 | What, then, is to be done with this_ over- produce_? |
34238 | What, then, must be the life of these poor creatures? |
34238 | What, then, should all these churches have been built_ for_? |
34238 | What, with regard to the poor, is the great complaint now? |
34238 | What_ right_ have these Commissioners to keep hares here, to eat up the trees? |
34238 | When his servant said,"Here is Mr. Cobbett, Sir;"he said,"How do you do, Sir? |
34238 | When were we again to see the labourer receiving his wages from the farmer instead of being sent on the road to break stones? |
34238 | Where are his friends, the Edinburgh Reviewers? |
34238 | Where are they_ now_? |
34238 | Where did the hands come from to make it? |
34238 | Where did the_ means_, where did the hands come from? |
34238 | Where is Malthus? |
34238 | Where is this check- population parson? |
34238 | Where is this to_ end_? |
34238 | Where, then, is their natural tendency to increase beyond the means of sustenance for them? |
34238 | Who are to_ eat_ them? |
34238 | Who can imagine that the persons employed about plantations and farms for the public, are employed because_ they are fit_ for the employment? |
34238 | Who denies that? |
34238 | Who does not know that? |
34238 | Who does not see to what this tends? |
34238 | Who is to have it? |
34238 | Who the Devil thought he had? |
34238 | Who thinks anything more of the name of_ Erskine_ than of that of_ Scott_? |
34238 | Whose fault is it, then? |
34238 | Why are not these premises let or sold? |
34238 | Why are these expensive things put up all over the country? |
34238 | Why do n''t they go to_ the parish_?" |
34238 | Why do not farmers now_ feed_ and_ lodge_ their work- people, as they did formerly? |
34238 | Why do you want not to forget that sink of corruption? |
34238 | Why has this infamous press, which always pursues that which it thinks its own interest; why has it taken this strange turn? |
34238 | Why is it egotism? |
34238 | Why not do it from that motive? |
34238 | Why not have the people in the fertile counties of the South, where their very existence causes their food and their raiment to come? |
34238 | Why not plant six acres of the ground with timber and underwood? |
34238 | Why not? |
34238 | Why should she not be consulted in every such case? |
34238 | Why should they not have some holidays? |
34238 | Why should you suffer them to remain in a state of ignorance relative to the cause of their misery? |
34238 | Why was it necessary to apprise him of it any more than the porter of the inn? |
34238 | Why, Doctor? |
34238 | Why, Gentlemen, what do we want more than this one fact? |
34238 | Why, I ask, should they work incessantly, if working part of the days of the week be sufficient? |
34238 | Why, he said that the reformers were a low degraded crew, and he called upon the House to make a stand against democratical encroachment? |
34238 | Why, was it not an ordinary; and had I not as much right there as he? |
34238 | Why? |
34238 | Will no member ask this in Parliament? |
34238 | Will the Chronicle be so good as to tell us the names of these"_ respectable_ persons"? |
34238 | Will the landlords stand this? |
34238 | Will this little, lively, but, at the same time, simple boy, ever become the terror of villains and hypocrites across the Atlantic? |
34238 | Would a dissolution of Parliament mend the matter? |
34238 | Would it not be more natural to propose to get this money back from the Church, than to squeeze so much out of the bones of the labourers? |
34238 | Yet what do labourers''families get, compared to this? |
34238 | Yet will he, when he again meets the Ministers, say a word about this monstrous evil? |
34238 | Yet, what is Tring but a fair specimen of English towns and English people? |
34238 | You know, said I, farmer, that when a girl has a sweet- heart, people call him her_ beau_? |
34238 | _ Can_ it be good farming to plough and sow and hoe thirty acres to get what_ may_ be got upon half an acre? |
34238 | _ What causes_ frogs to come in drops of rain, or those drops of rain to turn to frogs, the moment they are on the earth? |
34238 | _ What causes_ horse- hair to become living things? |
34238 | _ When_ will this be done? |
34238 | _ Whence come_ the means of building these new houses and keeping the inhabitants? |
34238 | _ Whence_ come fish in new made places where no fish have ever been put? |
34238 | _ Whence_ come( in similar cases as to self- woods) the hurtleberries in some places, and the raspberries in others? |
34238 | _ Who_ eats them? |
34238 | and does he observe that a load is_ fifty- two cubic feet_? |
34238 | are police- officers kept for this? |
34238 | he might fairly reply,''What is that to you?'' |
34238 | how can it be necessary, then, to have a law to transport them for coming upon your land? |
34238 | how was any one to know how to purchase wheat, if the bushel was to be altered at the pleasure of the Government to three times its present size? |
34238 | is a country like this to be ruined by the folly of those who govern it?'' |
34238 | is it smoke, or is it a cloud?" |
34238 | is there no spirit left in England except in the miserable sand- hills of Surrey?" |
34238 | is this state of things to last? |
34238 | said I,"you do n''t think you_ killed_, do you? |
34238 | said he,"where are_ now_ those savages who, at Hull, threatened to kill me for raising my voice against this system?" |
34238 | the reader will say,"should you want to recollect_ that_ place for? |
34238 | they come from_ the land_; but if Daddy Coke like this, what has any one else to do with it? |
34238 | was it not better for the consumers of the food to live near to the places where it was grown? |
34238 | were there bayonets wanted already to keep the people in order? |
34238 | what fools could not get the same, or the like, if they had as much_ money_ to get it with? |
34238 | what in all the world should he think would take me to Thetford,_ except it being a time for holding the assizes_? |
34238 | when shall we be allowed to enjoy God''s gifts, in freedom, as the people of France enjoy them? |
34238 | will any man believe that these churches were built for such little knots of people? |
34238 | would you never have people act from_ fear_? |
7080 | ''No, not the slightest,''he might answer,''but how is that to be done?'' |
7080 | ''What Duke?'' |
7080 | ''What sale?'' |
7080 | ''Why,''he said,''do n''t you know that is the place where the great sale took place?'' |
7080 | ( A Voice:''How about sugar?'') |
7080 | After the experience of such State Churches, which have done so little good and so much evil, is this a time for establishing another Church? |
7080 | Again, what do you say to the Mississippi River, as you see it upon the map, the''father of waters,''rolling its gigantic stream to the ocean? |
7080 | Again, what war could be more popular than the French war? |
7080 | Am I talking to sane men, that it is necessary to bring forward facts like these? |
7080 | Am I, then, talking of trifles? |
7080 | And if I have accurately described the state of Turkey, what is the position of Russia? |
7080 | And if it be true, what conclusion are we to come to? |
7080 | And if this Church has failed as a religious institution, how stands it as a political institution? |
7080 | And if we part from the speakers and turn to the writers, what do we find there? |
7080 | And once more I ask the noble Lord to tell us who did it? |
7080 | And that means, further, How can we improve the condition and change the minds of the people of Ireland? |
7080 | And what did the Ministers say then, and what did their organ, the_ Times_, say? |
7080 | And what is it that is meant by these proprietary rights? |
7080 | And what is that cost? |
7080 | And what is the state of things now? |
7080 | And what would you do with the City of Washington? |
7080 | And when terrible calamities were coming upon your army, where was this Government? |
7080 | And yet what has happened? |
7080 | Another question suggests itself-- how has this great triumph been accomplished? |
7080 | Are not William Lloyd Garrison and his fellow- labourers in that world''s work-- are they not''On Fame''s eternal bead- roll worthy to be filed?'' |
7080 | Are these things to be accounted nothing? |
7080 | Are they willing in overthrowing that Government to avow the policy of this Proclamation for India? |
7080 | Are they willing, above all, to take the responsibility which will attach to them if they avow the policy contained in this Proclamation? |
7080 | Are you to say, as some people say in America and in Jamaica when speaking of the black man, that''Nothing can be made of the Irishman''? |
7080 | Ask Victor Hugo, the poet of freedom,--the exponent, may I not call him, of the yearnings of all mankind for a better time? |
7080 | Baronet buy land in Ireland? |
7080 | Baronet the Secretary for War, say in reference to the proposition? |
7080 | But I have been asked twenty, fifty times during the last twelve months,''Why do you not come out and say something? |
7080 | But as to what is, or has been popular, I may ask, what was more popular than the American war? |
7080 | But does the fact of this dinner point to reconciliation, and to a firm and liberal administration? |
7080 | But how is it now? |
7080 | But how is this Government, so occupied and so embarrassed, to be expected to put the police on a satisfactory footing? |
7080 | But how long does England propose to govern India? |
7080 | But how much is at stake? |
7080 | But if all had been surrendered without a struggle, what then? |
7080 | But if honest Protestantism has nothing to fear from the changes that I would recommend, what has the honest landowner to fear? |
7080 | But if so, what security have you that one treaty will be more binding than another? |
7080 | But if that is so important as to be worth a sanguinary war, why did you not go to war with France when she seized upon Algiers? |
7080 | But if the North does not like England, does anybody believe the South does? |
7080 | But if the South began the war, and created all the mischief, does it look reasonable that we should pat them on the back, and be their friends? |
7080 | But if the tariff was onerous and grievous, was that any reason for this great insurrection? |
7080 | But it was not settled, and why not? |
7080 | But then we may be asked, What are our sources of supply, putting aside India? |
7080 | But they will very likely say, as many of them tell me,''What could we do in the frenzy of the public mind?'' |
7080 | But what becomes of the Proclamation? |
7080 | But what is intended with regard to the question of defence? |
7080 | But what is it now under the protection of the noble Lord and his Colleagues? |
7080 | But what is our position? |
7080 | But what is said by the writers in this infamous Southern press in this country with regard to that meeting? |
7080 | But what is said of Sir C. Trevelyan for instituting these reforms? |
7080 | But what is the condition of that Empire at this moment? |
7080 | But what is the meaning of revising the treaty of 1841? |
7080 | But what was the reason that we did not get enough? |
7080 | But why should there be this jealousy between these two nations? |
7080 | But, are those two noble Lords men in whom the House and country ought to place implicit confidence? |
7080 | But, now, is there a war party in the United States? |
7080 | But, to come nearer, I would ask whether this meeting has any opinion upon it, and whether our sympathies have been stirred in relation to it? |
7080 | Can anything be more destructive of the''integrity and independence''of Turkey than the policy of the noble Lord? |
7080 | Can they obtain better terms? |
7080 | Did he mean contending for empire, as England contends for it when making some fresh conquest in India? |
7080 | Did you never hear of it? |
7080 | Do not we feel in some sort a pricking of conscience, and are we not sensible that conscience tends to make us cowards at this particular juncture? |
7080 | Do you forget the thousand- fold griefs and the countless agonies which belonged to the silent conflict of slavery before the war began? |
7080 | Does anybody doubt it? |
7080 | Does it arise because the priests of Maynooth are now insufficiently clad or fed? |
7080 | For what did the noble Lord the Secretary for the Colonies say when he addressed the baillies and the enthusiastic citizens of Greenock? |
7080 | Friend has asked me,''Is there nobody to tell the House of Commons the truth on this matter?'' |
7080 | Gentleman has brought before us-- a question which he has put in such ambiguous terms? |
7080 | Gentleman knows, What was the condition of the Mahometan? |
7080 | Gentleman the Member for Oxford? |
7080 | Gentleman, who had given the House to suppose that a great deal had been done in respect to improvements in India? |
7080 | Gentlemen think it not necessary? |
7080 | Gentlemen what are the taxes of a whole village, and what they mean? |
7080 | Had that people not been docile, the most governable race in the world, how could you have maintained your power for 100 years? |
7080 | Has England any opinion with regard to this American question? |
7080 | Has England any sympathy, on one side or the other, with either party in this great struggle? |
7080 | Have these men gained anything in popularity with the country, or even with the Members of this House, by the course they have taken? |
7080 | Have you ever fully considered the effect which this state of things in Ireland has upon the condition of certain districts in England? |
7080 | Have you read the Reports of your own Commissioners to the New York Exhibition? |
7080 | Having thus described what appears to me briefly the literal truth of this matter, what is the course that England would be expected to pursue? |
7080 | How are the interests of England involved in this question? |
7080 | How came it that this despatch was never published for the information of the people of this country? |
7080 | How has it increased since then? |
7080 | I ask if this grand passage of the inspired writer may not be applied to that heroic band who have made America the perpetual home of freedom? |
7080 | I ask them-- I ask you-- have you any special interest in this contest? |
7080 | I asked him whether he was going out? |
7080 | I asked how it was he had so good a house? |
7080 | I recollect a question asked of a child at school, in one of those lessons called''object lessons,''''What is the basis of a batter pudding?'' |
7080 | I said to him,''If all the farmers of Ireland had the same security for the capital they laid out on their farms, what would be the result?'' |
7080 | I said,''Sir James, tell me candidly, did you not deserve it?'' |
7080 | I say an odious offence has been committed against the House, and against the truth; and what we want to know is, who did it? |
7080 | I should like to ask any lawyer in what light we stand as regards that Proclamation? |
7080 | I should like to ask him whether this Irish question is above the stature of himself and of his Colleagues? |
7080 | I should like to ask whence comes the anxiety, which undoubtedly to some extent prevails? |
7080 | I think him very unwise in not propounding to himself the momentous question,''What shall be done for Ireland?'' |
7080 | I want to know why they can do it in Ireland? |
7080 | I will ask the House in this state of things whether they are disposed to place implicit confidence in her Majesty''s Ministers? |
7080 | I will say even, is there a man with a more honest wish to do good to the country in which he occupies so conspicuous a place? |
7080 | I wish to ask why such a Bill is not ready before this? |
7080 | I would like to ask, what can be much worse than this? |
7080 | If Turkey has been in danger from the side of Russia heretofore, will she not be in far greater danger when the war is over? |
7080 | If an American be in this room to- night, will he feel that he likes my honourable Friend? |
7080 | If every man outside the walls of this House who has the interest of the whole Empire at heart were to speak here, what would he say to this House? |
7080 | If so, what is the end to which we must come? |
7080 | If that is true of Parliament, what shall we say of the Throne itself after all these changes? |
7080 | If the House accept the advice of the majority sitting on this side, what will be done? |
7080 | If the laws of entail and primogeniture are sound and just, why not apply them to personal property as well as to freehold? |
7080 | If the supply of cotton wool were limited to the hands of the Browns and the Barings, what would be the condition of the Lancashire manufactories? |
7080 | If they are thus misled and bewildered, is it not the duty of this House to speak with the voice of authority in this hour of peril? |
7080 | If they have destroyed cotton, or withheld it, shall we therefore take them to our bosoms? |
7080 | If we are to spend two hundred thousand pounds at Quebec, is Canada to spend four hundred thousand pounds at Montreal? |
7080 | If you pursue your vengeance until you have rooted out and destroyed every one of those soldiers who have revolted, when will your labour cease? |
7080 | Is everything to be done for the province? |
7080 | Is it intended to garrison its fortresses by English troops? |
7080 | Is it not possible that the Northern Government may be baffled in their military operations? |
7080 | Is it not possible that, by their own incapacity, they may be humiliated before their own people? |
7080 | Is it that the law which rules in Ireland is bad, but the people good; or that the law is good, but the people bad? |
7080 | Is not this a fit question for statesmanship? |
7080 | Is not your legislation all at fault in what it has hitherto done for that country? |
7080 | Is she not an incessant trouble to your Legislature, and the source of increased expense to your people, already over- taxed? |
7080 | Is she not the very symbol and token of your disgrace and humiliation to the whole world? |
7080 | Is there a better test in the long run of the condition of a people and the merits of a Government than the state of the finances? |
7080 | Is there anybody in this House in favour of such a war? |
7080 | Is there in Europe a more disinterested and generous friend of freedom than Garibaldi? |
7080 | Is there in any legislative assembly in the world a man, as the world judges, of more transcendent capacity? |
7080 | Is there no hope, no possibility, of infusing a little fresh blood from some purer source into these bodies? |
7080 | Is there not a consciousness in our heart of hearts that we have not during the last five years behaved generously to our neighbours? |
7080 | Is this hypocrisy? |
7080 | Is this nothing? |
7080 | Is war the only thing a nation enters upon in which the cost is never to be reckoned? |
7080 | It is said,--that very paper has said over and over again,--''Why this war? |
7080 | It put this question to the King,''How comes it to pass that the King was never the richer for Ireland?'' |
7080 | It was an absurd thing altogether; but what was done then? |
7080 | It was said, How would you like to have a Commission come down into Lancashire and insist on buying your factories? |
7080 | Member for Sheffield( Mr. Hadfield)? |
7080 | Member for South Lancashire? |
7080 | Member:''How much is the labour worth?''] |
7080 | Member:''Run away?''] |
7080 | Members are ready, I know, to say,''Whose fault is that?'' |
7080 | Members of this House might have read it? |
7080 | Mr. Ashworth has said, and said very truly,''Are they not our own people?'' |
7080 | Next, will the States attack Canada-- I am keeping out of view England altogether? |
7080 | Now let us ask, Is the United States for war? |
7080 | Now we come to the question, which of the propositions would be most secure? |
7080 | Now what has the noble Lord at the head of the Government done towards grappling with all these questions? |
7080 | Now what was done in Stockport? |
7080 | Now, I would ask the House this question-- are we prepared to sanction the policy of that despatch? |
7080 | Now, are there no good men in Ireland of those who are generally opposed to us in politics-- are there none who can rise above the level of party? |
7080 | Now, can this be remedied under slavery? |
7080 | Now, has anybody been able to show that, as a religious institution, it has not been a deplorable failure? |
7080 | Now, if it were possible, would it not be worth while to change the sentiments and improve the condition of the Irish cultivators of the soil? |
7080 | Now, suppose these Straits, instead of being one mile wide, had been ten miles wide, what difference would it make to Turkey? |
7080 | Now, what I should like to ask the House is this-- first of all, will Canada attack the States? |
7080 | Now, what has it cost to obtain all this? |
7080 | Now, what is international law? |
7080 | Now, what was the proposition of this third article? |
7080 | Now, why do you offer anything? |
7080 | On which side shall we stand? |
7080 | Sir, if this Proclamation be not a Proclamation of unheard- of severity, how comes it that so many persons have protested against it? |
7080 | Suppose the Government were to say to this farmer,''You would not have any objection to become possessed of this farm?'' |
7080 | That the Habeas Corpus Act should not be suspended? |
7080 | The answer suggests itself in another question-- How is it that any great thing is accomplished? |
7080 | The lady started with astonishment-- she had an eye to the vast funds of the State, and she asked,''What can 1,000 crowns be to the King?'' |
7080 | The other day I asked a gentleman holding an office in the Government, and who had lived some years in Ceylon, what was the state of the Council? |
7080 | The proposal was, that Russia should have eight ships; but what was the proposition with regard to her present antagonists? |
7080 | The question now is, however, how is that preponderance to cease? |
7080 | The question to them will be, What is the opinion of the Parliament of England as to the policy announced to India in the Proclamation? |
7080 | Then he said,''If we look for a remedy, who can give us an intelligible answer? |
7080 | Then if Canada is not for war, if England is not for war, and if the United States are not for war, whence is the war to come? |
7080 | Then, what would you do with all those States, and with what we may call the loyal portion of the people of those States? |
7080 | There can not be a meaner motive than this I am speaking of, in forming a judgment on this question,--that it is''better for us''--for whom? |
7080 | They say, further, Why should a man in Ireland keep his estate, and not a man in England who has an estate in Ireland? |
7080 | This being the case, in what manner are the Irish people to subsist in future? |
7080 | Was Wilberforce, was Clarkson, was Buxton,--I might run over the whole list,--were these men hypocrites, and had they nothing about them but ca nt? |
7080 | Was that becoming a matter of this grave nature? |
7080 | Was there any construction put upon it, which was different from the recommendation here made and the argument used by the French Government? |
7080 | Well, now, what have we seen during the last week? |
7080 | Well, now, what is the real obstacle in our path? |
7080 | Well, then, if they succeed, what sort of a Government shall we have? |
7080 | Well, why should you be afraid? |
7080 | What can a Governor- General do with such a Council, and with servants who are ever changing in all the departments? |
7080 | What did he say? |
7080 | What did one of the noble Lord''s present colleagues say of the Government of our ally? |
7080 | What did our rulers do then? |
7080 | What do people say of it? |
7080 | What do you propose to do? |
7080 | What do your own officers say? |
7080 | What had these worse than savages to do with the Powers of Europe, but to spread war, destruction, and pestilence among them? |
7080 | What has been the course of events in relation to that case? |
7080 | What has it done amongst the Nonconformists of England? |
7080 | What has it done amongst the population of Wales? |
7080 | What has passed in this House since the opening of the present session? |
7080 | What has the voluntary system done in Scotland? |
7080 | What have we been doing all the Session? |
7080 | What is Ireland worth to you at all? |
7080 | What is it that is offered upon this matter by the Government? |
7080 | What is it that the Member for Oxford says? |
7080 | What is it that the people of India, if they spoke by my mouth, have to complain of? |
7080 | What is it the Government propose to do? |
7080 | What is it we have to complain of in India? |
7080 | What is our ecclesiastical establishment in India? |
7080 | What is that in Ireland worth to you now? |
7080 | What is the condition of Ireland at this moment with which you have to deal? |
7080 | What is the condition of Ireland? |
7080 | What is the first remedy which you would propose? |
7080 | What is the meaning of confiscating the proprietary rights in the soil? |
7080 | What is the obvious remedy which for this state of things has been found to be sufficient in every other country? |
7080 | What is the proportion which Canada is to bear? |
7080 | What more did I see? |
7080 | What of late could be more remarkable than the caprices of the noble Lord the Member for London? |
7080 | What shall we say, then, with regard to it? |
7080 | What was done last night? |
7080 | What was done with this note? |
7080 | What was it that we heard during the Indian mutiny; what was the cause of all the letters that appeared in the newspapers? |
7080 | What was the condition of our greatest manufacturing industry before the war, and before secession had been practically attempted? |
7080 | What was the result? |
7080 | What would be the state of things here if such a regulation were adopted? |
7080 | What would the writers in this newspaper and other newspapers have said? |
7080 | What would you think of eight Birminghams being transplanted from this country and set down in the United States? |
7080 | What, I should like to know, would have been done if India had been conquered by the troops of the Crown? |
7080 | What, then, are we about to do? |
7080 | What, then, do you propose to do? |
7080 | What, then, is the change which is proposed, and which ought to be made? |
7080 | What, then, is the remedy that is now offered? |
7080 | What, then, is your hope? |
7080 | When I gave him an answer which did not agree with his opinion, he said,''I think you have never been in America, have you?'' |
7080 | When the time comes for the''inquisition for blood,''who shall answer for these things? |
7080 | Whence, then, could the planters of the South receive their increasing labour? |
7080 | Where is now the popularity of that disastrous and disgraceful war, and who is the man to defend it? |
7080 | Where is the surplus now? |
7080 | Where is this to end? |
7080 | Where was there a bad Government whose finances were in good order? |
7080 | Where was there a really good Government whose finances were in bad order? |
7080 | Who is there that does not recollect his frank, amiable, and manly countenance? |
7080 | Who is to gainsay it? |
7080 | Who objects to this? |
7080 | Who or what is the instrument-- the Cabinet, the Government, or the person-- by whom this evil policy is carried on? |
7080 | Who was there? |
7080 | Why can you not tell us something in this time of our great need?'' |
7080 | Why did the noble Lord think it necessary to speak for three hours and twenty minutes on the subject? |

29710 | But what is the truth? |
29710 | But what of the new Irish Cardinal, Archbishop Logue, of Armagh? |
29710 | But when did Irishmen act on the lines of Englishmen or Scotchmen? |
29710 | But where is the money to come from to purchase land? |
29710 | But where is the strong hand? |
29710 | But where was the great meeting? |
29710 | But which of the Nationalist members could do that? |
29710 | But whin they shot Tim, to kape his mouth shut, why would n''t they shoot the woman?" |
29710 | But whin ye come to look into it, why would n''t we be justified in usin''dynamite? |
29710 | But who tells them this? |
29710 | But why curse and blaspheme the landlords for what was in many cases their own deliberate act?" |
29710 | But why curse the landlords for what was their own deliberate act?" |
29710 | But why waste so much time?" |
29710 | But why? |
29710 | But with steady rule one day, and vacillation, wobbling, and surrender the next, what can you expect? |
29710 | But would n''t the poor man have to leave it, or die of starvation? |
29710 | But would you have Ireland alone to reckon with? |
29710 | By the confession of his own followers, all his previous legislation for Ireland has been a failure, for if it be not so, why the present measure? |
29710 | Ca n''t you get Gilbert to do a Home Rule opera comique? |
29710 | Can all the English magistrates spell''adjourned''? |
29710 | Can anybody in England"go one better"than this? |
29710 | Can anybody say anything against such sentiments? |
29710 | Can anybody tell me that?" |
29710 | Can anything be more unreasonable or more unlikely? |
29710 | Can not Englishmen reckon up the Home Rule agitation from such facts as these, the accuracy of which is easily ascertainable by anybody? |
29710 | Can not Gladstonians read the records? |
29710 | Can not the English people see through these nimble twisters and time- servers, this crowd of lay Vicars of Bray?" |
29710 | Can not the English see that it is urged by a set of thieves and traitors? |
29710 | Can not they see that brains and property are everywhere against it? |
29710 | Can the English Gladstonians get away from the suggestiveness of this fact? |
29710 | Can they not diagnose the progress of the disease? |
29710 | Can they point out a single instance in which we have the upper hand, or state anything in which we as Protestants have any advantage whatever? |
29710 | Can we ate it, can we dhrink it, can we shmoke it? |
29710 | Can you depend on the loyalty of the Catholic priesthood? |
29710 | Chamberlain showed him up, but why stop at one quotation? |
29710 | Could anybody be more stupid, more totally incapable of giving a valid reason for his action than your vaunted British workman? |
29710 | Could anything be more unreasonable? |
29710 | Could he get votes of supply without their aid? |
29710 | Could n''t we cut off their provisions? |
29710 | Could not something be done for these deserving men? |
29710 | D''ye hear what that owld woman''s singing?" |
29710 | D''ye mind the iligant property he has outside Dublin? |
29710 | D''ye see me now?" |
29710 | D''ye take me for a fool?" |
29710 | Did he ever say anything stronger than this? |
29710 | Did n''t he say that''the small loaf was the finest recruiting sergeant in the wuruld?'' |
29710 | Did n''t one o''their great spakers get up in Parlimint an''say we must be kept paupers? |

29710 | Did not Mr. Gladstone say there would be too much money? |
29710 | Did not Mr. Gladstone say we should have a chronic plethora of money? |

29710 | Did you ever see such magnanimity? |
29710 | Did you not, now?'' |
29710 | Did you see the great memorial to the Manchester murderers--''Martyrs''they call them? |
29710 | Do English people know what an Irish Catholic feels when refused absolution? |
29710 | Do I think the idea of''responsibility''is their leading idea? |
29710 | Do his followers call him that? |
29710 | Do n''t I know what yez wants? |

29710 | Do n''t you think anybody could see that they are taking advantage of the unsettled state of things to avoid any payment whatever? |
29710 | Do n''t you think that the rents will be reduced until the landlords are used up? |
29710 | Do not the people suit our purpose much better as they are? |
29710 | Do the English Separatists see daylight now? |
29710 | Do the English know what they are now submitting to? |
29710 | Do the English people grasp the present position of landowner and tenant respectively? |
29710 | Do the English people know this? |

29710 | Do they not know the aspirations of the Catholic clergy, and are they ignorant of their immense influence with the masses? |
29710 | Do they say their prayers to the Grand Old Man?" |
29710 | Do yez iver buy any clothes at all, or do yez beg them? |

29710 | Do you not know that the Irish Army of Independence is already being organised? |
29710 | Do you remember Carey, the informer? |
29710 | Do you think such men as Tim Harrington and Tim Healy are fit to be trusted with the spending of 2- 1/2 millions of money per annum? |
29710 | Do you think that a people powerfully influenced, supremely influenced, by the word of a priest are fit to govern themselves? |
29710 | Do you think that reconquest would settle the Irish question? |
29710 | Does anybody know? |
29710 | Does he mean 50,000 Irishmen? |
29710 | Does it look genuine? |
29710 | Does that look honest? |
29710 | Does this fact impress the usefulness of Balfour''s railways? |
29710 | Does this give earnest of final settlement, of unbroken peace and contentment, of eternal fraternity and friendship? |
29710 | Does this look like the fear of civil war? |
29710 | Does this sound like the Union of Hearts? |
29710 | Five weeks only? |
29710 | For if the English Parliament have the power to veto our wishes, where''s the difference? |
29710 | For what are a handful of reasonable men against a crowd of blackguards with big sticks?" |
29710 | For what? |
29710 | For why, beloved brethren? |
29710 | Give it up? |
29710 | Give it up? |
29710 | Go outside the manufacturing towns and what do you see? |
29710 | Had I a sheriff''s order,& c.,& c.,& c.? |
29710 | Have I not a noble soul? |
29710 | Have n''t I done my best? |
29710 | Have n''t I kept my promise? |
29710 | Have n''t we a right to do as_ we_ choose in Ireland? |
29710 | Have they adequate knowledge of the subtlety, the craft, the dissimulation, the foresight of this most wonderful religious system? |
29710 | Have they got any wrinkles? |
29710 | Have they not precisely the same freedom as that enjoyed by England, the freest country in the world? |
29710 | Have they not religious equality, free trade, a free press, and vote by ballot? |
29710 | Have they not the same laws, except where those laws have been relaxed in favour of Ireland? |
29710 | Have we not their example before us? |
29710 | Have ye that, now?" |
29710 | Have you been in Ennis? |
29710 | Have you heard any Irishman speak well of Gladstone? |
29710 | Have you met a decent Home Ruler who trusts the present men? |
29710 | Have you noticed the appalling mendicancy of Ireland? |
29710 | Have you reflected on the''high spirit''of the Irish people? |
29710 | Have you remembered their pride, their repugnance to the Saxon? |
29710 | Have you satisfied Irishmen yet? |
29710 | He notes the stranger, and politely says,"Can I be of any use? |
29710 | He remonstrates, and they say,''What business have you here? |
29710 | He said:--"Have Englishmen forgotten the previous history of the men she is now on the point of entrusting with her future? |
29710 | He said:--"They say the farmer is to get the land-- but what then? |
29710 | His friends simply said,''Ah, now, let the Boy go on wid the conthract; shure, is n''t he the dacent Boy altogether? |
29710 | How are we to begin? |
29710 | How are ye, Union iv Hearts?" |
29710 | How are you going to collect the two or three millions of Ireland''s share in Imperial expenditure without any force at all? |
29710 | How can Englishmen stand such a hollow humbug? |
29710 | How can I do so, when I myself was just as ignorant? |
29710 | How can we launch out into industrial enterprises? |
29710 | How can we settle down to work? |
29710 | How can you expect tolerance from a church the very essence of whose doctrine is intolerance? |
29710 | How did all this come about? |
29710 | How did the Items get into Parliament at all? |
29710 | How does this promise for the peace that is to follow this great measure of"Justice"to Ireland? |
29710 | How does this promise for the working of an Irish Parliament? |
29710 | How far have you succeeded in pacifying Ireland? |
29710 | How far shall I go back, Father Tom?" |
29710 | How is England to learn the precise state of things? |
29710 | How is it that all Protestants are well off, and make no complaint? |
29710 | How is it that most of the leading merchants are Protestants? |
29710 | How is it that their children never run barefoot? |
29710 | How is it that their families are well educated, that their dwellings are clean, and that they pay their way? |
29710 | How is that? |
29710 | How is this? |
29710 | How long are the English people going to stand this Morley- Gladstone management? |
29710 | How long in the country? |
29710 | How many Englishmen would have stood it? |
29710 | How many Irish members can make this their boast? |
29710 | How many of them could get tick in London for a new rig- out? |
29710 | How many people does the Tuam Town Hall hold? |
29710 | How much has your daughter? |
29710 | How much money has your son? |
29710 | How must we class the following case? |
29710 | How will it put a penny in yer pockets, an''what would ye get by it that ye ca n''t get widout it?" |
29710 | How will they be better off? |
29710 | How would I be among the mountains here? |
29710 | How would they ondhersthand at all? |
29710 | How would you collect the interest on the eighteen or twenty millions Ireland now owes? |
29710 | How''s that for tolerance? |
29710 | How? |
29710 | I ask myself where is the English commonsense of which we have heard so much in Germany? |
29710 | I heerd there was talk o''shootin''me from the back iv a ditch; an''that one said,''But av ye missed?'' |
29710 | I knew that pinky cheek, I knew that bright blue eye; yet here, in the wilds of Galway who could it be? |
29710 | If Home Rule becomes law those special grants from the Imperial Treasury will be no longer available; and what will be the result? |
29710 | If I go into a whiskey shop on a market day, what do I hear? |
29710 | If Ireland is to be governed from England, if we are to have any interference, what betther off will we be? |
29710 | If Irish Separatists talk like this, what do Irish Unionists say? |
29710 | If the Boys wanted to shoot the Colonel what''s to hinder them? |
29710 | If they flog us now with whips, wo n''t they flog us then with scorpions?" |
29710 | If they object to Home Rule, why did they vote for it? |
29710 | If they pay their rents, where do they get the money? |
29710 | If we can get on without Home Rule, why ca n''t they get on without Home Rule? |
29710 | If we can thrive, why ca n''t they thrive? |
29710 | If we''re not to govern the counthry in every way that_ we_ think best, why on earth would we want a Parlimint at all? |
29710 | If ye look properly at the thing, why would n''t we use dynamite? |
29710 | In what way? |
29710 | Ingenious, is n''t it? |
29710 | Is England governed by Englishmen? |
29710 | Is Irish sentiment to be again disappointed for a paltry six thousand pounds? |
29710 | Is it friendly to England? |
29710 | Is it not sweeter also than honey or the honeycomb? |
29710 | Is it sufficiently symptomatic? |
29710 | Is it to assist England? |
29710 | Is n''t that true? |
29710 | Is not England for the Irish, America, Australia, New Zealand? |
29710 | Is not soap an enemy to the faith? |
29710 | Is not the goodwill of the foinest pisintry in the wuruld more to be desired than much fine gold? |
29710 | Is not the time for soft speaking nearly over? |
29710 | Is not the whole system of Popery based on intolerance, on infallibility, on strict exclusiveness? |
29710 | Is not this big print enough? |
29710 | Is that new to you? |
29710 | Is that thrue, now? |
29710 | Is the Sisyphean stone of Home Rule, so laboriously rolled uphill, to again roll down, crushing in its fall the faithful rollers? |
29710 | Is the as- you- were assertion an argument? |
29710 | Is the hope that the ignorant peasantry of Ireland will return"the better class of men,"who"do not believe in Home Rule"an argument? |
29710 | Is their want of energy due to breed, to religion, or to both? |
29710 | Is there any class or trading interest which would be by working men entrusted with such enormous power? |
29710 | Is there no antidote to this poison? |
29710 | Is there no means of enlightenment available? |
29710 | Is this opinion not well worth consideration? |
29710 | Is this the class of men you wish to set over us as governors?" |
29710 | It is? |
29710 | Look at Gladstone, have ye anybody to come up to him? |
29710 | Loyalty to England? |
29710 | Loyalty? |
29710 | More distress? |
29710 | Morley?" |
29710 | Mr. Gladstone? |
29710 | No difference there, their object is one and the same, and when the priests and the farmers unite, who can compel them to pay up? |
29710 | No doubt Lord Houghton''s first impulse would be to exclaim,"Then why on earth do n''t you use your advantages? |
29710 | No? |
29710 | Now, how is that? |
29710 | Now, were not the Irish loyal when the English people disloyally favoured their Oliver Cromwell and their William the Third?" |
29710 | On the other hand, does not appetite grow with what it feeds on? |
29710 | Or be hung in a blaze with a hook in your backs, Till you all melt away like a cake of bees''-wax? |
29710 | Otherwise, why ask for a Parliament? |
29710 | Ought not the Irish people to be masters of Ireland? |
29710 | Ought such people to have the franchise? |
29710 | Patriots are they? |
29710 | Perhaps ye have Gladstonian life- assurance offices in England? |
29710 | Presently you will see the bearing of all this on your question-- Why do not the best Catholics come forward and speak against Home Rule? |
29710 | Query-- if a given number of murders were required to bring about Home Rule, how many murders will be required to effect complete separation? |
29710 | RENTS, the Ponsonby, 50; rack renting, 100; quite low enough, 143; what rack rent means, 190; land must be worth something, 228; to whom is rent due? |
29710 | REPUBLIC, An Irish, 162; could we reconquer? |
29710 | Saith not the wisest of men that a good report maketh the bones fat? |
29710 | See that hill there? |
29710 | Shall the sons be unworthy of the sires? |
29710 | Shall we bow down to Popery? |
29710 | Shall we truckle to Rome, shall we become slaves to Popish knaves, shall we become subservient to priestcraft and lying and roguery and trickery? |
29710 | Since the bill became public and has been the subject of popular discussion, I brought out the Ballinrobe and Claremorris Railway-- with what result? |
29710 | Sind_ me_ to Parlimint, till I get within whisperin''distance of Misther Gladstone-- within whisperin''distance, d''ye mind me? |
29710 | So I got to know this, an''iver afther, whin they would be sayin''to me,"''Which is the best hotel in Ennis?'' |
29710 | Suppose we want £ 500 for some improvement, who will lend us the money? |
29710 | Suppose you gave Ireland Home Rule, and the Church turned rusty? |
29710 | Supposed they groaned under conscription like France and Germany, what then? |
29710 | Sure''tis the English Government, an''what would it be else? |
29710 | Sure, how would we do as we liked, wid an army of them fellows agin us? |
29710 | Sure, the counthry wo n''t be able to do widout loans, an''who''ll lind ye money wid an Irish Parlimint?" |
29710 | Surely the Gladstonian English admit that? |
29710 | TOLERATION, would Catholics show? |
29710 | That''s the inscription, and what does it mean? |
29710 | The British Grenadiers would then come in, and where would be the Union of Hearts? |
29710 | The Chairman wanted to know why the Yankees did not call the ugly brutes after Lord Salisbury and Colonel Saunderson? |
29710 | The English Parliament, hoping to win over the farmers, who are the strength of Ireland, has made one concession after another, with what result? |
29710 | The brutal Saxon with his ding- dong persistency may be making money, but how about his future interests? |
29710 | The colleagues whom he had assorted at the same boards, stared at each other, and were obliged to ask,''Sir, your name?'' |
29710 | The helmsman is under their orders-- will he be heaved overboard before he has done his work? |
29710 | The injustice of an Irish rent largely depends on the question, To whom is it due? |
29710 | The most commonplace observation evokes a"D''ye see that, now?" |
29710 | The murtherin'', sweatin''landlords that''ll grind the very soul out of ye-- who are they? |
29710 | The only question was, would they clear out peaceably, or would it be necessary to call in the aid of the Irish Army of Independence? |
29710 | The pledges of Dillon and Davitt-- what are they worth? |
29710 | The small farmers thinks they''ll have the land for nothin'', but what about the labourers? |
29710 | The_ Independent_ says,''When Ireland next fights England she will not fight alone?'' |
29710 | Their politics? |
29710 | Then looking at the gambler''s black and polished feet, he said:--"Tell me, now, honey, is it Day an''Martin''s ye use?" |
29710 | Then what hope is there of friendship in a Home Rule Bill which will infinitely increase the number of points of dispute? |
29710 | Then why are the Limerick Catholics loyal? |
29710 | Then why not take their advice? |
29710 | Then why send them to Parliament, say you? |
29710 | Then, whatever debts Ireland might incur England would have to pay, should Ireland repudiate them? |
29710 | Then, why rouse more enmity? |
29710 | There was iron at Ballyshannon, but what was the good? |
29710 | These fellows ca n''t agree for five minutes together, and their principal subject of quarrel is-- Who shall be master? |
29710 | They asked what would they do else, and what did he take them for? |
29710 | They bate his servants next, an''said Will ye join? |
29710 | They fought the thing out; but where was the good? |
29710 | They have sent out lecturers and instructors, they have planted patches and grown the stuff, and shown the pecuniary results, and with what effect? |
29710 | They never had no meetin''s; why? |
29710 | They sent him terrible letthers wid skulls an''guns, an''coffins, an''they said Will ye join? |
29710 | They smashed ivery pane o''glass in his house, an''they said Will ye join? |
29710 | They talk about Home Rule, but what good will that do us? |
29710 | They threw explosives into the house, an''said Will ye join? |
29710 | They turn round angrily and say,''Was n''t it good enough for my father, an''was n''t he a betther man than ayther me or you?'' |
29710 | They will leave the land, I suppose? |
29710 | This promises well for the success of the Home Rule Bill; but why is the thing"impossible"? |
29710 | To how many of them would Gladstone lend a sovereign? |
29710 | To shoot sparrows? |
29710 | Turning to me, the bearded man said,"Did ye ever hear the pome about Saint Patrick''s birthday?" |
29710 | Vote against him? |
29710 | Was n''t I born among yez? |
29710 | Was n''t I rared among yez? |
29710 | Was n''t that hard lines? |
29710 | Was not the disestablishment of the Church to remove all cause of discontent? |
29710 | Was there ever a free and prosperous country where the Roman Catholic religion was predominant?" |
29710 | We may have iron, but what''s the good when we have no coal to smelt it? |
29710 | Well,''he says,''who was he?'' |
29710 | What Englishman would have done as much for his grandmother? |
29710 | What are Englishmen going to do? |
29710 | What are they to- day? |
29710 | What are ye standin''there for? |
29710 | What business have the English here at all domineering over us? |
29710 | What can do a man good who tries to get his dinner by standing about and saying how hungry he is? |
29710 | What can the poor folks do? |
29710 | What can you say for them after that?" |
29710 | What could they do? |
29710 | What could they wish for more? |
29710 | What could we do? |
29710 | What d''ye take me for? |
29710 | What did Parnell say? |
29710 | What did the people of East Donegal do, under the guidance of their clergy? |
29710 | What did they do with them? |
29710 | What do I think of Gladstone? |
29710 | What do Mr. Gladstone''s infirm beliefs resemble? |
29710 | What do the Tuamites deny? |
29710 | What do you see there?" |
29710 | What do you see? |
29710 | What do you suppose the men who join it think it means? |
29710 | What do you think?" |
29710 | What does O''Connor mean by the 100,000 Irish arms? |
29710 | What does it mane at all, at all? |
29710 | What does it mane, at all, at all? |
29710 | What does that prove? |
29710 | What does this mean if not civil war? |
29710 | What does this mean? |
29710 | What does this prove? |
29710 | What freedom do the Irish want? |
29710 | What good would the land do me, once I were dead? |
29710 | What have they done? |
29710 | What is going to stand against that?" |
29710 | What is it? |
29710 | What is the effect on England? |
29710 | What is the unhappy man to do? |
29710 | What kind of Government would be possible under six or seven factions?" |
29710 | What makes he here? |
29710 | What more natural? |
29710 | What more natural? |
29710 | What praymium would they want for the life of a Bodyke man that paid his rint to the Colonel?" |
29710 | What reason for believing this? |
29710 | What reduction on that sum would do them any real good?" |
29710 | What right, moral or legal, have these Colquhouns, these Galbraiths, these Andersons, to Irish soil? |
29710 | What shall I do if Home Rule becomes law? |
29710 | What stops them? |
29710 | What then? |
29710 | What tyranny do we now undergo? |

43617 | ''Why?'' 43617 ''With whom pray do you console yourself?'' |
43617 | ''You will not trust yourself with me then?'' 43617 ''_ Mais où est, donc, ce petit coquin de docteur?_''said William, in a conciliatory tone. |
43617 | Already? |
43617 | Alvanly, shall I have the pleasure of drinking wine with you? |
43617 | Am I forgiven? |
43617 | Am I not to be introduced to your friend? |
43617 | And Cotton? |
43617 | And Lady Fanny''s age? |
43617 | And Miss, do you expect me to find you in stamps too? |
43617 | And Sophia? |
43617 | And another thing is what you wish for? |
43617 | And did I not promise Mistress Kitty, the mother of him, that I would stick by her darling till the breath was clane out of his body? 43617 And did he send you the two hundred pounds?" |
43617 | And did not you then begin to hate me? |
43617 | And did they not take you too? |
43617 | And his name? |
43617 | And how came it to become him so well? |
43617 | And how does Sophia like him? |
43617 | And how might your talent be applied, Ma''am? |
43617 | And how will your particular friend Frederick Lamb like that? |
43617 | And if I fall in love with him? |
43617 | And if it should happen so? |
43617 | And is that absolutely necessary? |
43617 | And look at that tie? |
43617 | And may I pay you a visit? |
43617 | And may be you would not approve nather, of their nate, compact little fashion of breaking a head, perhaps? |
43617 | And my kisses? 43617 And now pray, Mr. Shuffle, if I may be so bold, what might have brought you up to London? |
43617 | And of what service was that to me, think you? 43617 And pray are not these the tickets of this box?" |
43617 | And pray, Pat, what takes you over to Oxford? |
43617 | And pray, sir,said the eldest lady bridling,"do we look like people who would bemean ourselves by going into the pit?" |
43617 | And pray,continued Hodson,"where''s the perpetual motion you were wriggling after so long? |
43617 | And so you really are at last caught, my lord,said I,"fairly caught in love''s trap? |
43617 | And suppose I loved you? |
43617 | And suppose I should grow wicked on the road? |
43617 | And the Duke,inquired I, with something like a sickness of the heart,"is he as tender and as loving as ever?" |
43617 | And therefore,I remarked,"you suffered him to continue his visits as usual?" |
43617 | And vat sal I do vid dis clean voman vat you talk to me about? |
43617 | And was it you who----? |
43617 | And what answer did you make? |
43617 | And what becomes of you? |
43617 | And what for me? |
43617 | And what is to become of her poor children? |
43617 | And what says Colonel Quintin? |
43617 | And what then? |
43617 | And what think you of Wellesley? |
43617 | And what,I continued,"have you done with Palmella?" |
43617 | And where are you to sleep? |
43617 | And where did you ever see a stupid, prosing poet, who did feel his own inferiority? |
43617 | And where is that poor dear little man now? |
43617 | And where''s my son Fred? |
43617 | And who is to protect Mildmay''s child? |
43617 | And who shall be the father to give me away, and be a witness to prove my marriage? |
43617 | And whom does he love? |
43617 | And why not? |
43617 | And why, pray? |
43617 | And yet you come here every day? |
43617 | And you are not jealous? |
43617 | And you desire and permit me to walk about the country with him? |
43617 | And you will be glad to see me on my return then? |
43617 | And you''d have me chated and diddled out on the fare as well as the service? 43617 And you,"said I to Argyle,"suppose you were to break your appointment to- night?" |
43617 | And you? |
43617 | And your amiable daughters? 43617 And, since there is nothing to be said against him, what excuse can you make for using him so ill?" |
43617 | And, when he is gone, there will be no man you care about left in England? |
43617 | Any answer for Lord Fife, ma''am? |
43617 | Any answer for the servant? |
43617 | Apropos to marriage, duke, how do you like it? |
43617 | Apropos to what? |
43617 | Apropos to what? |
43617 | Apropos,he added,"you told Frederick that I walked about the turnpike looking for you, and that, no doubt, to make him laugh at me?" |
43617 | Are there no constables here? |
43617 | Are you a girl of the town? |
43617 | Are you acquainted with her, then? |
43617 | Are you alone? |
43617 | Are you certain of this? |
43617 | Are you ever taken with either a fit of reading, or a fit of romance, Berkely? |
43617 | Are you fond of looking at jewellery? |
43617 | Are you going to tell me that you were tipsy, when you last did me the favour to mistake my house for an inn, or something worse? |
43617 | Are you hungry? |
43617 | Are you not going home, pretty? |
43617 | Are you old? |
43617 | Are you quick, good- tempered, honest, handy,& c.& c, when one can as well answer all these questions in their name, oneself, with a single yes? |
43617 | Are you quite certain that it is the Duke himself you want to see, and not the young marquis? |
43617 | Are you quite sure? |
43617 | Are you sure you have not mistaken me for the sun? |
43617 | As to you,said Fred,"you are a beautiful creature, and I come to try to reform you, or else what will become of you when you grow old?" |
43617 | Beautiful Amy, how do you do? |
43617 | Because what? |
43617 | Because what? |
43617 | But Julia? |
43617 | But answer me,said Baron Tuille, addressing himself to me,"does the Duke of Leinster go to the continent this year?" |
43617 | But do you believe,interrupted Julia,"that I should have asked you to dine with me, if I had not been particularly struck and pleased with you? |
43617 | But r- e- a- l- l- y, r- e- a- l- l- y, ca- ca- cannot Tom She- She- She- Sheridan assist you, marquis? |
43617 | But suppose he insists, William? |
43617 | But the German prince? |
43617 | But then after the mouse is gone to bed,said I,"how does her ladyship amuse herself?" |
43617 | But were you not also afraid of being called a coward? |
43617 | But what in the name of the devil is your ass of a coachman keeping us here for? |
43617 | But what reason have you for making the journey? |
43617 | But why is he called a lady- killer? |
43617 | But why? |
43617 | But, Fanny, you will make a point of cutting this grocer, I hope? |
43617 | But,said I,"why did you suffer his lordship to be eternally at your house?" |
43617 | Can I forward you a bundle of pens, or anything? |
43617 | Can I, or my cook, do anything in the world to be useful to her? |
43617 | Can this be a mere masquerade- attitude for effect, practised in an empty room? |
43617 | Can we really be admitted in riding habits? |
43617 | Could you have believed it, madam? |
43617 | Could you have thought it? |
43617 | Dear little Harry, have I frightened you? |
43617 | Dear me, Sir William, how could she be so foolish as to run away? 43617 Did I not desire you to mention, Monsieur le Clerc, when you took my place, that the basket was to go inside?" |
43617 | Did Sydenham say your returning the two hundred pounds would be too great a sacrifice also? |
43617 | Did he not what? |
43617 | Did not I tell you he would soon join us? |
43617 | Did not you drive here in it? |
43617 | Did you all three come up by steam, or how? |
43617 | Did you believe that young creature was so depraved? |
43617 | Did you bring this note, pray? |
43617 | Did you ever hear of General Mackenzie? |
43617 | Did you ever know any good of one of them? |
43617 | Did you ever see such an impudent rascal, my dear Sophia? |
43617 | Did you ever speak to him? |
43617 | Did you see me play the methodist parson, in a tub, at Mrs. Beaumont''s masquerade last Thursday? |
43617 | Did you send the letter I wrote for you? |
43617 | Do n''t you know Fisher, the lady- killer of these parts? |
43617 | Do n''t you know,said thickhead,"do n''t you know,_ Belle Harriette_, that I am blind as well as deaf, and a little absent too?" |
43617 | Do n''t you understand French? |
43617 | Do not you really know what place this is? 43617 Do you allude to an innocent girl, prince?" |
43617 | Do you believe in God? |
43617 | Do you call my love of God pride? |
43617 | Do you come from the''enemy''? |
43617 | Do you doubt it still? |
43617 | Do you fancy me then so humble and so void of taste as to buy with my money the reluctant embraces of any woman breathing? 43617 Do you hear?" |
43617 | Do you keep a valet, sir? |
43617 | Do you know Lord Ponsonby? |
43617 | Do you know a Mr. George Brummell? |
43617 | Do you know anything about this funeral, or that poor young female who has just followed it? |
43617 | Do you know that Lord Worcester is expected to bring home the next despatches? |
43617 | Do you know what the Duke of York says of you Fred? |
43617 | Do you know,said I to him one day,"do you know the world talk about hanging you?" |
43617 | Do you know,said he,"that this is a very clever work?" |
43617 | Do you mean to remain all your life in town? |
43617 | Do you not breathe with rather less pain? |
43617 | Do you presume to judge of Inglish''s Aperient, who have swallowed but one? |
43617 | Do you propose dining with her? |
43617 | Do you really believe Fisher wanted to intrigue with you? |
43617 | Do you really mean to say that Fisher ever hinted anything like a wish to be favoured by you? |
43617 | Do you return to Grosvenor Square first? |
43617 | Do you think I believe all this incredible, romantic nonsense? 43617 Do you think that fine boy, her brother, would like to go to sea?" |
43617 | Do you think they would feel happier if they were in possession of your promises of marriage? |
43617 | Do you wish to leave me now, then? |
43617 | Do, my pretty little Meyler, tell me what you would be at? |
43617 | Does anybody mean to go to Elliston''s masquerade? |
43617 | Does not that satisfy you? |
43617 | Does this young man love me? |
43617 | Does your lordship always attend the French Opera? |
43617 | Duke,said I, interrupting him,"was it not your first and most anxious wish that Worcester should go abroad?" |
43617 | Eh? |
43617 | Eliza,said I,"why do you weep? |
43617 | Fanny, my dear Fanny,said I,"can you make yourself so completely wretched for a man who acts without common humanity towards you?" |
43617 | Fever? 43617 For what, I pray?" |
43617 | From what? |
43617 | General who? |
43617 | Good gracious Mr. Meyler, is it you? |
43617 | Green tea is the best, is it not, Miss? |
43617 | Had we not better try another inn? |
43617 | Have not I just given you a specimen, in the shape of a handsome quotation? |
43617 | Have you applied to his lordship on that subject? |
43617 | Have you everything that you require, at this end of the table? |
43617 | Have you forgotten the promise you made to your father? |
43617 | He was Fred Lamb''s General in Yorkshire? |
43617 | He was very much in love with her then? |
43617 | He will write, of course? |
43617 | How am I to inquire the character of your sweetheart, for God''s sake? |
43617 | How am I to know all your ragamuffins? |
43617 | How came Lord Proby''s black small- clothes here? |
43617 | How came he to be so shy? |
43617 | How can it be avoided till I am of age? |
43617 | How can that young man stand by and see two women so shockingly insulted, and not come forward to offer his protection? |
43617 | How can you all encourage this cold- blooded heartless creature? 43617 How can you fancy I would marry a d----d old Italian, old enough to be my mother? |
43617 | How can you strive to make fools of people? |
43617 | How can you wait in this dress in the middle of the streets? |
43617 | How could I be so stupid,said he:"but you will allow me to set you down in a hackney- coach?" |
43617 | How could it possibly be settled then? |
43617 | How did Ebrington like being_ congédié?_he inquired. |
43617 | How did you get home last night? |
43617 | How did you like Lady Caroline Lamb? |
43617 | How did your Grace''s party on the river go off this morning? |
43617 | How do you do, Harriette? |
43617 | How do you do? 43617 How do you do? |
43617 | How do you do? 43617 How do you find yourself this evening, my very excellent neighbour?" |
43617 | How do you know I ever did? |
43617 | How do you know? |
43617 | How do you like Oxford? |
43617 | How do you mean favoured? |
43617 | How do you mean impossible,I asked? |
43617 | How do you mean, madam? |
43617 | How is it possible to be so? 43617 How is it possible,"I replied,"even if I wished it, since Meyler will not absent himself an hour from me, unless it is to accompany you somewhere? |
43617 | How is one to obtain a sight of your beauty? |
43617 | How is that? |
43617 | How is this? |
43617 | How is your poetical doctor? |
43617 | How pray? |
43617 | How should I know? |
43617 | How so? |
43617 | How so? |
43617 | How so? |
43617 | How, pray? |
43617 | I asked Argyle,Tom Sheridan proceeded,"how he had addressed his last letters to you? |
43617 | I beg I may hear of no such thing,said I, hastily--"else, where would he go to, I wonder, without his small- clothes?" |
43617 | I believe, sir,addressing the beau smirkingly,"I fancy, sir, I have had the pleasure of meeting you before? |
43617 | I may not call on you then? |
43617 | I may now, then,said Samuel,"conclude this unpleasant business is amicably settled?" |
43617 | I say? |
43617 | I want to know where you live? |
43617 | I was in hopes there would be act the fourth,retorted I;"but, seriously, what do you understand by a scene?" |
43617 | I was in love enough once,I rejoined,"God knows, and what good did it do me?" |
43617 | I wish to inquire of his lordship respectfully, if he has objections to tell me whether or not he has ever threatened to put me under arrest? 43617 I wonder,"said Miss Eliza Higgins, as she assisted at my toilette,"I wonder if the Earl of Fife will be at Vauxhall? |
43617 | If Fred Bentinck meets a woman of my loose morals in this dress,_ il croira que c''est la belle Madeleine!_"But where is your bonnet? |
43617 | If I do really believe in a God, and a hereafter, would you have me affect to be a disbeliever? 43617 If he does, will you do it?" |
43617 | If this is really my character, and you imagine I should act thus for ever towards every man, how can you be so very weak as to like me? |
43617 | If what? |
43617 | If you were to die, who would stand my friend when the world tramples on me? 43617 In a year, then,"said Meyler,"if Worcester does not return?" |
43617 | In what way, pray? |
43617 | In what way? |
43617 | Is Amy at home to- night? |
43617 | Is Meyler really gone without me, then? |
43617 | Is Mr. Meyler in the house? |
43617 | Is anybody here who can lend me two shillings to pay my hackney- coach? |
43617 | Is he handsome? |
43617 | Is he not an odious little monster of ill- nature, take him altogether? |
43617 | Is his lordship punctual generally speaking, pray, ma''am? |
43617 | Is it her beauty then which has won your heart? |
43617 | Is it in good spirits then, you reckon me? 43617 Is it not charming weather?" |
43617 | Is it possible that you seriously wish to avoid all this impertinence? |
43617 | Is it possible, think you,I inquired of his lordship,"is it possible to pass one''s life with a man of bad temper?" |
43617 | Is it to be a state party? |
43617 | Is it what rasin had I? 43617 Is not Beckendorff a general in the service of the Emperor?" |
43617 | Is not the boy they call Frank supposed to be a son of the duke? |
43617 | Is that Berkeley Paget peeping out of Amy''s box? 43617 Is that Mr. Frederick Lamb''s ghost?" |
43617 | Is that a boy, or a girl, think you? |
43617 | Is that all? 43617 Is that an Irish wig you have got on your head, Pat?" |
43617 | Is that meant for a joke, or a matter of fact? |
43617 | Is the duke there? |
43617 | Is there any sort of comparison to be made between you and that mad woman? |
43617 | Is there nothing in the tone of my voice or in my manner which seems familiar to you? |
43617 | It is from your husband then? |
43617 | Lady Abdy was musical then? |
43617 | Leinster is coming to take you to your carriage, I know,said he,"and I wish----""What do you wish?" |
43617 | Lord bless us, how can you ask such stupid questions, Lord Petersham? |
43617 | Lord help the woman,said Julia,"what can have put it into her head to appear this beautiful weather in such a costume?" |
43617 | MY DEAR MISS WILSON,--Will you be so condescending as to allow me to pass this evening alone with you after Lord Lansdowne''s party? 43617 Madeira?" |
43617 | Mais ou est donc madame la Comtesse? |
43617 | May I presume to inquire after the_ petite santé_ of Miss Eliza Higgins? |
43617 | May I see you constantly till I go? |
43617 | May I speak plainly? |
43617 | May I,said Lord Worcester eagerly, as though he dreaded an interruption,"may I, on my return to town, venture to pay my respects?" |
43617 | Might he write to me? |
43617 | Must you go home, already? |
43617 | My God,said Meyler, one day, striking his head violently with his hand,"what am I to do? |
43617 | My dear Fanny, what is the matter? |
43617 | My dear Fanny,said I,"what am I to do with your boy George? |
43617 | My dear Fanny,said I,"what is the matter? |
43617 | My dear, dear Harriette,continued Argyle, in great alarm,"for God''s sake, tell me what on earth I have done to offend you?" |
43617 | My dear, dear young lady,said Mrs. Butler, looking at me with much compassion,"what has happened to that sweet, merry, blooming face of yours?" |
43617 | My dear,continued Fanny,"why do you take such pains to convince me of what you know I have never had cause to doubt? |
43617 | My good man, where can I procure a safe guide and protector, to walk with me to the Crown Inn? |
43617 | My lord,said one,"have you spoken to the manager about bringing my young friend out at the opera house this season?" |
43617 | My love, what is to be done? |
43617 | No, nothing is asked, but whether Harriette Wilson approves of this or that? 43617 No; I would be more or less: anything rather than myself; but what is all this to you? |
43617 | Not if I continue separated from Worcester? |
43617 | Not much? |
43617 | Not surely, if I were secret as the grave itself? |
43617 | Not the Duke of Leinster? |
43617 | Nothing more? |
43617 | Now I hope you are quite convinced that your being left in my hall was contrary to my knowledge, and gives me real concern? |
43617 | Now can anything come up to your vanity in writing to Lorne, that you are the most beautiful creature on earth? |
43617 | Now what would you say if I had discovered a fairy, witch, or magician, who would this very night do all I have named for us? |
43617 | Now you have discovered it,said Ponsonby, laughing;"I am going to die!--Would you regret me?" |
43617 | Nugent is not dead, I hope? |
43617 | Of course, Worcester, I may trust to this assurance made in your presence? |
43617 | Oh dear, ma''am, what would you advise me to wear? 43617 Oh dear,"said Julia,"what shall I do?" |
43617 | Oh,said Paragon,"do you hear the screams of that infant?" |
43617 | Oh,_ mon Dieu_? |
43617 | Oppression? 43617 P.S.--How do Amy and her schoolmaster of Athens go on?" |
43617 | Pray William,said his mother,"why do you come to the Hoppera in that hodious round''at, after giving such a price for a three- cornered one?" |
43617 | Pray does Lord Wellesley make his love too, as well as his reputation, by proxy? |
43617 | Pray how comed you to be so rich, hey? 43617 Pray what do you Irish know about wig- making?" |
43617 | Pray who made that lovely shoe to fit that pretty foot so charmingly? |
43617 | Pray, Sir, must one come here in a bob- wig? |
43617 | Pray, sir,said the fat gentleman, speaking louder,"may I be bold to ask which of they two foreigners might be the Russian Emperor?" |
43617 | Shall I find you there? |
43617 | Shall I make you a cup of tea, Sir William? |
43617 | Shall I speak frankly? |
43617 | Shall I tell Lorne,said poor Tom, with an effort to recover his usual gaiety,"that you will write to him, or will you come to the Tennis- court?" |
43617 | Shall I write to your uncle, Lord Carysfort? |
43617 | Shall the waistcoat be made with pockets and flaps, pray? |
43617 | Shall we go to the nursery? |
43617 | Shall you want to run away from me? |
43617 | She came then? |
43617 | She has bespoken a boy then? |
43617 | She is not a flirt, I believe? |
43617 | Sir? |
43617 | Smith,said I,"those bills were paid to- day, I hope?" |
43617 | So you have cut poor Argyle, and are in love again with a man of my acquaintance? |
43617 | Suppose we make a party, and hire a house for you and Julia and me? |
43617 | Suppose we turn our horses''heads towards Paris again? |
43617 | Suppose you had paid the whole? |
43617 | Surely you are not putting off the Earl of Fife? |
43617 | Swear, sir? 43617 Tell me, dear Harriette, should you be sorry?" |
43617 | Tell me; did you several times receive money sent to you in a blank envelope by the post? |
43617 | Thank God, Ebrington is off for Italy,said he;"and, knowing you were alone, how could I resist paying you a visit?" |
43617 | The ambassador? |
43617 | The earl may yet arrive then? |
43617 | The leg is a boy''s, the finest I ever saw,said one;"but then that foot, where shall we find a boy with such delicate feet and hands?" |
43617 | Then perhaps you are only out of health,said I,"instead of out of spirits? |
43617 | Then why did you not call at the oilshop? |
43617 | Then you can declare, at all events, that you never made his acquaintance? |
43617 | Then, I suppose, Berkeley, you would have no objection to part with that coat? |
43617 | Those leaders are not bad: who made them? |
43617 | Three in a curricle? |
43617 | To Argyle House, I suppose? |
43617 | To be sure not, who the devil waits for men? |
43617 | To be sure not,said Alvanly,"who the devil would wait for you?" |
43617 | Upon red and grey hair, I presume? |
43617 | Upon your honour and word, you do not like me? |
43617 | Upon your honour does the Duke really wish to take from me the means of existence, even if I effectually and for ever separate myself from his son? |
43617 | Vot you tink vos in this man''s garten? 43617 Vy do you set there?" |
43617 | Was that the Marquis of Worcester who ran out of your home in such a hurry, as I was getting out of my carriage? |
43617 | Was the Earl of Fife in the gardens? |
43617 | Was this honourable? |
43617 | Well Miss Sophia, so you''ve made a new conquest? |
43617 | Well sir; what have you to say? |
43617 | Well then, let me hear you speak in your own language? |
43617 | Well then, since it is natural to break your head, which fact I do not in the least dispute, may it not be as natural to adorn it occasionally? 43617 Well then,"said Miss Higgins,"I confess that I once----""Once what?" |
43617 | Well, Soph, my love, are you glad to see me? |
43617 | Well, but having lost your place, why trouble yourself to go down when it is too late? |
43617 | Well, my lord,continued the sergeant, looking sheepish,"you see, if you would just mention it to Colonel Quintin?" |
43617 | Well, what can you do for us? |
43617 | Well? |
43617 | Well? |
43617 | Well? |
43617 | Were it not wiser to advise me not to walk about with him? |
43617 | Were you ever seriously in love, my lord? |
43617 | Were you quite sober? |
43617 | What again at your hundred and fourth psalm? |
43617 | What am I to do, Lord Worcester? |

43617 | What do you mean by a woman like me? |
43617 | What do you mean by depraved? |

43617 | What is his name? |
43617 | What is his name? |

43617 | What is incredibly astonishing? |

43617 | What is that like? |
43617 | What is that to me? 43617 What is that to you, you little fool?" |

43617 | What is that, pray, Miss? |
43617 | What is the matter between you and Livius? 43617 What is the matter with you, young gentleman?" |

43617 | When, how, where? |
43617 | When,he wrote,"beautiful Harriette, will you admit me into your house? |
43617 | When? |

43617 | Who do you think would have entrusted me with their secrets fifteen years ago? 43617 Who has laid such an appalling embargo on you?" |
43617 | Who is he? |
43617 | Who is he? |
43617 | Who is it pray? |
43617 | Who is she to marry, pray? |
43617 | Who is she? |
43617 | Who is that? |

43617 | Whom did you ride with to- day, Fanny? |
43617 | Whom do you include in your all? |
43617 | Whom do you think I met at Cowes? 43617 Why be a slave to any unamiable woman?" |
43617 | Why can not we take these things as the Frenchwomen do? 43617 Why could not you love me? |
43617 | Why defend those nasty fellows then? |
43617 | Why did she run away from you? |
43617 | Why do n''t William stay with the girls? |
43617 | Why do n''t she come? |
43617 | Why do n''t you make your servants deny you? |
43617 | Why do n''t you ride and tye regularly with your two muttons,said I,"when you want to be economical? |
43617 | Why do not you article yourself then to a baker of it,I observed,"and so pay some of your debts?" |
43617 | Why do not you bring his name? |
43617 | Why do not you play harlequin? |
43617 | Why do not you point out the man to us? |

43617 | Why not act with common sense? |
43617 | Why not let Worcester fight his own battles? |
43617 | Why not make up our minds that we know nothing, and then, while we quietly follow the dictates of our own consciences, hope the best? |
43617 | Why not show yourself to the admiring world, after the trouble of making yourself so very fine? |
43617 | Why not with the right? |
43617 | Why not, at least, have carried on the thing quietly? |
43617 | Why not? 43617 Why not?" |
43617 | Why not? |
43617 | Why not? |
43617 | Why not? |
43617 | Why say such cruel unfeeling things to me? 43617 Why should I fret about this senseless, heartless being?" |
43617 | Why should poor Parker marry a woman with a ready- made family? |
43617 | Why so? |
43617 | Why so? |
43617 | Why the devil did not your servant tell me that all these people were here? |
43617 | Why the devil do n''t you manage better? |
43617 | Why then, was he so awfully dumb? |
43617 | Why vulgar? |
43617 | Why will you agitate yourself for nothing? |
43617 | Why, General--, but you will be secret? |
43617 | Why, Meyler, will you force me from you, if you really have the smallest attachment for me? |
43617 | Why, did not everybody think so? |
43617 | Why, do you not know that Sydenham and I are become man and wife? 43617 Why, pray?" |
43617 | Why, the other day you wrote to ask a lady of rank if you might visit her,_ à cheval?_ What does that mean pray? |
43617 | Why, the other day you wrote to ask a lady of rank if you might visit her,_ à cheval?_ What does that mean pray? |
43617 | Why, what can you have done to the poor child? |
43617 | Why, what is the matter with it, Sir John? 43617 Why, you are not going to trust yourself in that rake''s carriage alone?" |
43617 | Why,said Brummell to several of these half- and- half sort of gentry,"have not I called you Dick, Tom, and John, you rogues? |
43617 | Why-- why, in short,continued Frederick--"in short, shall I drive you down to Greenwich to dinner?" |
43617 | Why-- why-- the fact is, it would seem----"What would it seem? |
43617 | Why? 43617 Will once do?" |
43617 | Will you be offended if I venture to introduce a young lady to you? |
43617 | Will you come in? 43617 Will you like to step up and see her?" |
43617 | Will you oblige me by undertaking it, madam? |
43617 | Will you present me? |
43617 | Will you promise? |
43617 | Will you ride, Harriette? |
43617 | Will your Grace shake hands with me? |
43617 | With all my heart; but how does Lady Fanny Ponsonby pass her time? |
43617 | With whom, pray? |
43617 | Would you believe it? 43617 Would you like Richmond?" |
43617 | Would you like to be acquainted with him? |
43617 | Would you like to dance? |
43617 | Would you regret it? |
43617 | You admire Lord Ponsonby then? |
43617 | You allude to the gentleman I was riding with in the park? |
43617 | You are come to scold me for sending my old nurse to console the general? |
43617 | You are not serious? |
43617 | You do n''t say so? |
43617 | You do n''t say so? |
43617 | You do n''t say so? |
43617 | You do n''t seriously and really mean to say you are going to travel that figure, and in the broad face of day too? |
43617 | You do not mistake this for summer, do you? 43617 You here alone?" |
43617 | You know I have a very warm and feeling heart, and taste enough to admire and like you; but why is this to be our last meeting? |
43617 | You must go now,I added;"I never break my word, and Leinster will be here directly; but, when he goes to Spain,----""Does he go?" |
43617 | You promise not to be offended? |
43617 | You refuse then? |
43617 | You return to Oxford to- night, I believe? |
43617 | You sup with Amy, I hope? |
43617 | You surely must be in love with his large property? |
43617 | You will be surprised to see me here, general? |
43617 | You will forward any letters that may arrive from the Earl of Fife? |
43617 | You will not accompany me to Scotland then? |
43617 | You wo n''t tell me your name then? |
43617 | You wo nt? |
43617 | Your Grace still believes me desirous of the honour I might obtain by forcing myself on you as your despised relative? |
43617 | Your intrigues then are so frequent, that you forget with whom they occur it should seem? |
43617 | Your lordship, if I remember, was formerly in the Guards, I think? 43617 Yourself, perhaps?" |
43617 | _ Au reste,_ my dear Worcester, what is there in a ceremony and what do I care for a title? 43617 _ D''où venez vous?_"She informed me that she had been living with Lady Caroline Lamb. |
43617 | _ En attendant_, will you walk again with me to- morrow? |
43617 | _ En voilà assez,_said I,"_ de votre belle sauvage._ Perhaps you will show him to me some day, not on Ludgate Hill, but at the Opera?" |
43617 | _ Est- il possible?_ Did nothing more happen? |
43617 | _ Est- il possible?_ Did nothing more happen? |
43617 | _ Et puis?_said Fanny. |
43617 | _ Et vous, Madame?_said George Lamb. |
43617 | _ Mais, ne sais- tu pas que je l''ai perdu?_I inquired. |
43617 | _ Plait- t''il?_said Carlo, raising his large languid eyes to George''s face from the pencil he was cutting. |
43617 | _ Quelle bizarre idée vous passe par la tête?_said I. |
43617 | _ Veux- tu jouer avec le petit Anglais, mon enfant?_inquired Rosabella. |
43617 | ''Have you any recommendations?'' |
43617 | ''What is the matter my poor fellow?'' |
43617 | ''What vision, pray?'' |
43617 | ''Who can the cruel fair one be?'' |
43617 | ''Why, where are you going?'' |
43617 | ''Why?'' |
43617 | ''tis love,''tis love,''tis love._""Livius,"then said George Lamb,"I want to ask you whether you have places to spare for your night?" |
43617 | A hatred of idleness, Mr. Zimmerman, is a love of industry; but how is this love and this hatred to be acquired? |
43617 | After a long pause, he suddenly, and with abruptness, said,"Who makes your shoes?" |
43617 | And all these ere beautiful nice, plump, dear lasses about? |
43617 | And if they have, why do you not address them with firm, manly civility, to request an explanation or apology?" |
43617 | And my blue stockings? |
43617 | And pray, madam, the reader may ask; how came you to be thus early acquainted with George Brummell''s inmost soul? |
43617 | And sell the mighty share of our large honours, For so much trash, as may be grasped thus? |
43617 | And was I not the object of his first, his most ardent wishes, on his arrival from Spain? |
43617 | And was not that worth all the money to you? |
43617 | And what catchpenny ballad writer could not write a parody on them as you have done? |
43617 | And you too have forgotten me,_ n''est ce pas?_ If you have not, I hope you will tell me so by return of post. |
43617 | And, being this, as well as young and beautiful, why condescend to resent our sins against you? |
43617 | And, if I would, would you not yourself scruple, as a married man, to be the cause of misery to a poor young creature?" |
43617 | Answer:"Will ten o''clock this evening suit you? |
43617 | Any of them married yet? |
43617 | Any of them thinking of it, hey?" |
43617 | Are there no writing- masters at Ravenna? |
43617 | Are you a Frenchwoman?" |
43617 | Are you stage- struck as usual, or struck mad by mere accident?" |
43617 | At a word then, shall I try the experiment?" |
43617 | Besides, why do n''t my old friends keep me among them? |
43617 | But are there not also fastidious, angry, querulential readers? |
43617 | But then what is death? |
43617 | But what chance can you have? |
43617 | But what is an extravagant fellow to do, with high rank and little or no money? |
43617 | But what of that? |
43617 | By the bye,"inquired his lordship,"how is this? |
43617 | CHAPTER XXIII Now what am I next to amuse my readers with? |
43617 | Can little Tommy do no more? |
43617 | Can not you write straight at least? |
43617 | Can one conceive anything so absurd?" |
43617 | Can you look quite serious and declare to him you never heard of such a person?" |
43617 | Colonel Berkeley looked at his lordship in utter astonishment, exclaiming,"My good fellow, what the devil is the matter?" |
43617 | Cough? |
43617 | Could I be mistaken? |
43617 | Could I respect the husband who would deceive his parents? |
43617 | Could I wonder at it? |
43617 | Could he not, at least, have declined the honour I wanted to confer on him, civilly? |
43617 | Could you have imagined she would ever have asked me for money?" |
43617 | Crazy Jane?" |
43617 | Dear Lorne, forgive me?" |
43617 | Did he ever look at me? |
43617 | Did he not kneel? |
43617 | Did you get a letter from our dear mother yesterday? |
43617 | Dites, donc, mon cher, en parlant du bas_, who do you make love to now? |
43617 | Do n''t you know vat a tower is?'' |
43617 | Do n''t you know you are on your oath? |
43617 | Do n''t you recollect the other night, besides calling you a fool, he accused you of being an old clothesman?" |
43617 | Do not I require fortitude?" |
43617 | Do not you know that you are in the lobby?" |
43617 | Do not you see those two men at the corner of the street are tipsy? |
43617 | Do you know man, that you are by no means an ugly fellow?" |
43617 | Do you know that Brummell is cut amongst us, and who do you think sets the fashions there now?" |
43617 | Do you know,"continued Fanny,"I, who used to abhor solitude even for a single morning, am now become very fond of it? |
43617 | Do you recollect I told you so? |
43617 | Do you remember what I said to you at our last meeting, and will you do me the justice to believe I did not deceive you? |
43617 | Do you still ask me to break my oath?" |
43617 | Do you think there are any ghosts in this part of the world?" |
43617 | Dobbins?" |
43617 | Elliston now seated himself by my side, and said, in a whisper,"Do n''t you want tea?" |
43617 | Have I ever wished to disobey you? |
43617 | Have you a mind to give Lorne an agreeable surprise?" |
43617 | Have you any objection to tell me candidly whether they are really your originals?" |
43617 | Have you made any money by it?" |
43617 | Hay? |
43617 | Hay? |
43617 | Hay? |
43617 | Hay? |
43617 | He bowed first, then said:"How do you do?" |
43617 | He had also professed to love Julia once, and how had he requited her? |
43617 | He told me that I was going on in a very bad way, and asked me whither I expected to go? |
43617 | Her first question was''Is your man handsome?'' |
43617 | His lordship now asked me, in a voice trembling more with agitation than age, or rage, what I meant? |
43617 | How came those stinking butchers''candles in your room?" |
43617 | How could I address myself to such a booby? |
43617 | How could I be so deficient in good taste? |
43617 | How could I be so ridiculous and negligent? |
43617 | How could we help fancying it was the right way out? |
43617 | How do you do, pray?" |
43617 | How do you do?" |
43617 | How do you do?" |
43617 | How do you know that it is severe?" |
43617 | How do you think I manage it at Melton?" |
43617 | How does Lord Berwick go on?" |
43617 | How far are you going?" |
43617 | How happened that?" |
43617 | How happens this? |
43617 | How indeed could I do otherwise, when the Honourable Frederick Lamb was my constant visitor, and talked to me of nothing else? |
43617 | How long have you been in Paris? |
43617 | How much money do you want?" |
43617 | How then can I remain constant to your inconstant charms? |
43617 | How voud it be in possibility to flock such fine fellow as dat? |
43617 | I asked a friend of Lord Ponsonby one day why he did not adore his beautiful wife? |
43617 | I asked how long he had been married? |
43617 | I asked,"and why did he not approach me?" |
43617 | I asked,"has Berkeley been induced, by fear, to render me that justice, which he has denied to my earnest entreaty?" |
43617 | I asked;"who on earth ever tried you that way?" |
43617 | I ca n''t say as you treat me exactly like a lady, and-- now do n''t laugh-- oh, you sly, pretty rogue!--Hay? |
43617 | I called Lord Hertford aside, and addressed him:"Tell me, I earnestly implore you, most candidly and truly, do you think Fanny will recover?" |
43617 | I exclaimed,"is this what you Opposition gentlemen call spirit, growling at a man between your teeth for an imagined insult? |
43617 | I had fancied----""What?" |
43617 | I hope you believe that I felt very much shocked that you should have waited in my hall? |
43617 | I inquired whether my situation, previous to my having been under the protection of Lord Worcester, made any difference? |
43617 | I knew you were here, and how could I fail to discover you? |
43617 | I meant to ask what I should try to amuse them with? |
43617 | I often wished to be more interesting, and less remarkable;_ mais quoi faire?_"I can not conceive why these men stare at you in this manner?" |
43617 | I often wished to be more interesting, and less remarkable;_ mais quoi faire?_"I can not conceive why these men stare at you in this manner?" |
43617 | I then asked if he married her for love or money? |
43617 | I want you to meet me to- morrow morning in Hyde Park at six; and, do you hear? |
43617 | I was already beginning to prefer his lordship, and was it to be wondered at, all the circumstances considered? |
43617 | I was angry and disgusted with him for speaking of you in this manner, and I asked him if he did not think you had used me very ill?" |
43617 | I will not call it love or affection, else why does he with his twenty thousand a year suffer her to be so shockingly distressed? |
43617 | I wonder, thought I, what sort of a nightcap the Prince of Wales wears? |
43617 | I----""Did I ever tell you I was in love with you?" |
43617 | If I draw you up two more, now, will you really give me your word they shall be paid?" |
43617 | If Vice is a monster, of such hideous mien, That, to be hated, needs but to be seen, when has vice ever been so unsparingly exposed? |
43617 | If the mere climate made a Venetian of Shylock, why does Shakespeare point at him as an usurer? |
43617 | In about another week, I wrote to him again as follows:"Why do n''t you come, Mountebank? |
43617 | In the meantime will you trust yourself to come and dine with me to- day?" |
43617 | In the meantime will you write to me? |
43617 | Is it not absurd to suppose that a woman, who was not quite a fool, could believe in such ridiculous, heartless nonsense? |
43617 | Is it not very decently covered by this smart, coloured handkerchief?" |
43617 | Is it really you? |
43617 | Is our dress a pit- dress or a gallery- dress ma''am?" |
43617 | Is that a proper sight to attract a young''s lady''s attention?" |
43617 | Is that fair, or rather are not you a terrible coxcomb, master Argyle? |
43617 | It was as follows;"I have long been very desirous to make your acquaintance: will you let me? |
43617 | Julia asked him if he really meant to say he had not forgotten you all this time? |
43617 | Lambton?" |
43617 | Let us inquire what my sister Fanny is doing? |
43617 | Lorne looked, not sulky, nor cross, as Fred Lamb would have done; but smiled beautifully, and said:"At three, then, may I go to you?" |
43617 | Luttrell inquired,"that you are eternally driving up that long stupid Bois de Boulogne?" |
43617 | Might he not be watching his dog? |
43617 | Mildmay inquired,"and will you give me a kiss? |
43617 | Miss Harriette, is it really you?" |
43617 | Mr. Shuffle, how do you do? |
43617 | Must I not strive to live by my wits? |
43617 | My inquiry,"_ Si Monsieur Brummell était visible_?" |
43617 | Napier?" |
43617 | Now about those here bills? |
43617 | Now what would this excellent author say to Mr. Jack Ketch''s hand being laid on one, and that not quite in the way of kindness either? |
43617 | Of course the Beauforts have received news from Lord Worcester long ago? |
43617 | Of course, you all know_ The Cock_ at Sutton? |
43617 | Once for all madam, will you go to Vauxhall on Monday night? |
43617 | Only tell me what I can do for you and Leinster and my sister Fanny? |
43617 | Or was he but a mere upstart man, of extraordinary genius, without strength of mind to know what he would be at? |
43617 | Or, do you mean to forget me? |
43617 | Perhaps the reader will allow me to cut the subject where it stands? |
43617 | Ponsonby remarked,"What is odd?" |
43617 | Pray Miss, how is your time spent?" |
43617 | Pray where is she?" |
43617 | Quoi faire?_ and how can one write pathetically on such trifling subjects? |
43617 | Quoi faire?_ and how can one write pathetically on such trifling subjects? |
43617 | Readers with full stomachs, who complain of being surfeited and overloaded with the story- telling trash of our circulating libraries? |
43617 | Readers, can you conceive anything half so monstrous, half so ruinous to black- pudding men, so destructive to the rising generation? |
43617 | Shall I be netting a purse, or will it have a better effect to put on my gloves and be doing nothing?" |
43617 | Shall I continue to suffer thus for what his footmen, tradesmen and valet, enjoy freely every day? |
43617 | Shall I get you a glass of water?" |
43617 | Shall you, my dear?" |
43617 | Smith?'' |
43617 | Something like the man, who boasted of having been addressed by the Emperor Bonaparte:"What did he say to you?" |
43617 | Stanhope?" |
43617 | Suppose you show us your half- crown?" |
43617 | The Duke''s answer was brought to me by his groom, as soon as he had received my letter; it ran thus:"Are you really serious? |
43617 | The scene was indeed disgraceful to humanity and I was very much affected by it; but how could I help it? |
43617 | Then I went on to wonder whether the Prince of Wales would think me as beautiful as Frederick Lamb did? |
43617 | Then you really could not return my passion?" |
43617 | There, do n''t speak, can you swallow a saline draught? |
43617 | Therefore,"continued Tom Sheridan, smiling,"you''ll make it up with Lorne, wo n''t you?" |
43617 | Think you that you felt them to- night for the very first time in your life?" |
43617 | This was his answer,--"If you are but half as lovely as you think yourself, you must be well worth knowing; but how is that to be managed? |
43617 | To my inquiry,"What was the matter?" |
43617 | To this Tommy we may apply the epigram written on another Tommy: What can little Tommy do? |
43617 | Tu ne sera pas si cruelle?_"Argyle is the best Frenchman I have met with in England, and poor Tom Sheridan was the second best. |
43617 | Vare is de most fine pictures? |
43617 | Vot do dey show to me fore all dis money?... |
43617 | Vot for should any man vont fore to see great many muskets, all put straight togeter fore to do noting? |
43617 | Was he really so superior, and would he crush the poor worms which dared not aspire to his perfections? |
43617 | Was it never a little more decent? |
43617 | Was it one of my weaknesses you wanted to humour, by appearing to guess me something out of the common way?" |
43617 | We were now interrupted by the Prince Esterhazy, who entered all over mud, saying,"_ Comment ça va?_"without taking off his hat. |
43617 | Were you sorry I left you? |
43617 | What am I? |
43617 | What antics might you be up to, hey? |
43617 | What are you afraid of? |
43617 | What character in the name of wonder did Amy choose? |
43617 | What could I ever be to him? |
43617 | What could I not have been, what could I not have undertaken for the friend, the companion, the husband of my choice? |
43617 | What could the easy tempered Leinster do less than declare his happiness to see him? |
43617 | What do you think of my cap? |
43617 | What does Argyle say to all this?" |
43617 | What else could it mean?" |
43617 | What great crime would there be if your little piece happened not to be to their taste?" |
43617 | What happiness, think you, could we enjoy, at the expense of making your parents miserable? |
43617 | What has become of Lord Ponsonby?" |
43617 | What has he done? |
43617 | What have I done so very wicked, that I may not ever again behold him? |
43617 | What is an author, or anybody else the better for having a parcel of bad debts on his ledger? |
43617 | What is to be done? |
43617 | What knowledge will be likely to make me most agreeable to him? |
43617 | What makes you think so?" |
43617 | What matters that? |
43617 | What may be your serious thoughts of it?" |
43617 | What sort of an old woman do you allude to?" |
43617 | What steadiness could I expect from such an ass as Worcester? |
43617 | What the devil can you possibly have to say against my son Fred?" |
43617 | What think you of our getting it up the same evening?" |
43617 | What trash, my dear Wellington? |
43617 | What was I, that Lord Ponsonby should think about me? |
43617 | What was anything on earth to love? |
43617 | What was to be done? |
43617 | What was to be done? |
43617 | What was to be done? |
43617 | What was to be done? |
43617 | What was to be done? |
43617 | What were parents, what were friends to her? |
43617 | What would ladies be at? |
43617 | What''s upon your word to do with it? |
43617 | What, in the name of wonder can have brought you to Cowes?'' |
43617 | What-- was-- your-- own-- opinion, as to the man''s state of health?" |
43617 | When I have done this, I do not think you will swear at me, or frighten me, or ill- use me, will you?" |
43617 | When does Colonel Parker set off?" |
43617 | When may I come? |
43617 | Where can one get a sight of Meyler?" |
43617 | Where do you live? |
43617 | Where is the author who can be indifferent to the genuine unhackneyed praise bestowed on his own composition? |
43617 | Wherefore should one ask them,"Can you dress hair?" |
43617 | While the rain was trickling down his nose, his voice, trembling with rage and impatience, cried out,"You old idiot, do you know me now?" |
43617 | Who and what are you, who appear to me a being too bright and too severe to dwell among us?" |
43617 | Who calls?" |
43617 | Who knows what may turn up?" |
43617 | Who on earth could steal your watch?" |
43617 | Who the d--- l dines at six? |
43617 | Who the devil was that old woman last Friday?" |
43617 | Who would a thort of our meeting you, in the coach?" |
43617 | Who would have thought to find you here? |
43617 | Who would not cut the very best swaggering Stanhope for a Molyneux?" |
43617 | Why am I to be a slave to Charles Somerset? |
43617 | Why am I to sleep alone?'' |
43617 | Why be afraid of that great black- eyed sister of mine, as if she were of so much consequence?" |
43617 | Why blame one for what really can not be helped?" |
43617 | Why did not you come upstairs?" |
43617 | Why did you affect not to know me? |
43617 | Why did you leave that regiment?" |
43617 | Why did you make believe to be English?" |
43617 | Why do n''t you take to intriguing with women of fashion? |
43617 | Why do not you go to her to inquire?" |
43617 | Why do not you make him pay your debts? |
43617 | Why growl or be sulky if nobody has offered you any insult? |
43617 | Why is he not an Adonis?" |
43617 | Why not have told me at once that you did not mean to receive me?" |
43617 | Why should I?" |
43617 | Why so obstinately refuse my visits? |
43617 | Will Haught, who was in a terrible bustle on this occasion, asked,"Where is Miss Wilson to wait during parade, my lord?" |
43617 | Will it ever be believed? |
43617 | Will it not occur to them that accident has had much to do with their being Christians, or Jews, or Turks? |
43617 | Will that suit you?" |
43617 | Will you be so good, Miss, as to mention that I wants to show her how my great coat sets behind?" |
43617 | Will you come down with me in a hackney coach as far as the House?" |
43617 | Will you present me to her? |
43617 | Will you procure us some safe conveyance? |
43617 | Wo n''t you take a glass of wine?" |
43617 | Worcester called him a d----d liar, and throwing his card at him, at the same time, asked him who he was, and where he came from? |
43617 | Would not you have laughed at such poetical stuff?" |
43617 | Would she be so vulgar?" |
43617 | Would you believe, reader, this eloquent epistle obtained me no answer during three long days? |
43617 | Yet what editor ever took to task a lady whose friends were on the spot? |
43617 | Yet who was it to affect? |
43617 | You bought that satin of me I think? |
43617 | You used my name, of course, at the watch- house?" |
43617 | You will not mind running to South Audley- street for a pound of black pudding? |
43617 | You would not like a horsepond:_ n''est- ce pas?_""Keep them to it, keep up the war between them; it is so amusing. |
43617 | You''ll increase your fever, my charming young lady; and then what will your friend Fred Bentinck say? |
43617 | You''ll stay then with me?" |
43617 | Young Edward Fitzgerald, who is a cousin of the Duke of Leinster, on one occasion galloped after us, and addressed Worcester:"What do you think? |
43617 | _ Alors je pend la tête!_ Is it thus he would immortalise me? |
43617 | _ N''est- ce pas?_ The man who lays his hand on a woman, save in the way of kindness, is a monster, whom it were gross flattery to call coward. |
43617 | _ Nous lui demandâmes si elle faisait, encore, lit à part?__ Elle répondit que non._"And what sort of a man is Lord Berwick?" |
43617 | _ Nous lui demandâmes si elle faisait, encore, lit à part?__ Elle répondit que non._"And what sort of a man is Lord Berwick?" |
43617 | _ Qu''en pensez vous?_"H.W." |
43617 | _ Qu''en pensez- vous actuellement?_""Pray,"said Meyler, trembling from head to foot,"put me out of suspense." |
43617 | _ Que voulez- vous?_ But I wish to explain the Duke of Beaufort''s conduct, certainly." |
43617 | _ Que voulez- vous?_ It is the nature of the animal. |
43617 | a pig- tail? |
43617 | and did not the proprietor of this same coach promise me the first vacant sate?" |
43617 | and is it under it you''d have me wear it?" |
43617 | and may it not be her nature to intrigue with Fred Beauclerc? |
43617 | and that I have changed my name and my home for his?" |
43617 | and then your rage for the stage, what''s become of that? |
43617 | and why is that frightful cap stuck up before you?" |
43617 | answered Fanny,"shall I ring for your maid? |
43617 | asked Shuffle,"and what business have you to crack jokes?" |
43617 | bawled out George Lamb,"why the deuce do n''t you come and finish your supper? |
43617 | beating in their hearts, could think of Frederick Lamb? |
43617 | burst forth the exasperated lady;"are females always to be imposed upon in this manner?" |
43617 | business, do n''t you, miss?" |
43617 | could he have left me? |
43617 | d''où viens tu?_"but without answering him or perhaps understanding what he said. |
43617 | dear, Miss Wilson, what do you mean?" |
43617 | do you think that I have nothing better to do than to make speeches to please ladies?" |
43617 | ejaculated I;"and what can his lordship do better than attend so sweet a creature? |
43617 | for what, pray?" |
43617 | hay? |
43617 | hey? |
43617 | how came you alone this miserable night?" |
43617 | how comed you then dear, to let go o''this and never miss it? |
43617 | how could you ever degrade yourself thus? |
43617 | how do you do?" |
43617 | inquired Elliston,"and completing it in two days?" |
43617 | inquired your sister Amy? |
43617 | or what right would any duke have to cut a private gentleman? |
43617 | or would you have had me force myself into a family which despised me?" |
43617 | roared out Elliston;"why is the road blocked up in this manner?" |
43617 | said Berkeley, laughing heartily,"did he really give you eggs and bacon for dinner?" |
43617 | said I, looking at him with much curiosity,"and why do you lay such a stress on trifles light as air?" |
43617 | said I, out of all patience at his stupidity;"what come you here for, duke?" |
43617 | said I,"after all the promises you have made to become less righteous?" |
43617 | said I,"what am I to say to him this time?" |
43617 | said I,"what is to be done? |
43617 | said I,"where did he spring from?" |
43617 | said I,''Fitz, you are not going to wait?'' |
43617 | said Sir William, grasping my arm with both his hands,"you do not say so? |
43617 | said Smith, much offended;"but, good Lord, who have we got here? |
43617 | said Wellington, very seriously,"what paper do you read?" |
43617 | said he,"and what can I do for you?" |
43617 | said he,"what detains your man? |
43617 | said the Duc de Guiche;"I wish I knew whether he would like to sell it and what he would ask for it?" |
43617 | said the duke, returning a few steps after we had taken leave:--"_Mais tu viendras, mon ange? |
43617 | said the son, as soon as he had looked it over,"think of it, sir?" |
43617 | said the stranger, in evident surprise,"and why, if you dislike me, were you so very desirous to speak to me?" |
43617 | shall I order candles?" |
43617 | since, without one, who could follow the stranger? |
43617 | tant pour les Misses New Times, que pour moi!_"But who on earth are the Miss New Times''s? |
43617 | then,"exclaimed Amy,"you admit the master is dirty?" |
43617 | they are greater conquerors than ever Wellington shall be; but, to be serious, I understood you came here to try to make yourself agreeable?" |
43617 | thought I, half wild with the delightful idea,"and shall we not meet again? |
43617 | uttered Wellington,"where is Lorne?" |
43617 | what are you doing?" |
43617 | what do you hint at? |
43617 | what do you mean by wicked?" |
43617 | what do you mean? |
43617 | what do you say? |
43617 | what do you think? |
43617 | what do you want?" |
43617 | what have you been about?" |
43617 | what shall we do?" |
43617 | what was I, that Ponsonby should devote his precious life to me? |
43617 | what''s to be done?" |
43617 | where is it to be?" |
43617 | where''s His Grace? |
43617 | where''s the Duke of Leinster?''" |
43617 | where?" |
43617 | who could travel with Ward? |
43617 | who was that elegant- looking man with you?" |
43617 | why do nt you do your duty?''" |
43617 | wo n''t you have any more?" |
43617 | would not you like to go to Margate?" |
43617 | you a lord? |
43617 | you do n''t say so? |
43617 | you do not say so?" |
43617 | you ere a bachelor too, and ask vat then? |
43617 | you will take your draught to- night?" |
