| 11363 | You do not come without some reason; tell me, what news have you?" |
| 11256 | Dicat films Albini: si de quincunce remota est uncia, quid superat? 11256 What is more strictly protected,"he says,"by all religious feeling, than the house of each individual citizen? |
| 11256 | ( 2) how was it supplied with food and clothing? |
| 11256 | 5:"vos convivia lauta sumptuose De die facitis?"] |
| 11256 | : would you stay there among those harlots, prostitutes of bakers, leavings of the breadmakers, smeared with rank cosmetics, nasty devotees of slaves? |
| 11256 | ; breeding of slaves; prices of slaves; possible number in Cicero''s day; economic aspect of slavery: did it interfere with free labour? |
| 11256 | But did Varro also conceive of this Jupiter as a deity"making for righteousness,"or acting as a sanction for morality? |
| 11256 | Can we doubt that he was himself a shareholder? |
| 11256 | Let young Albinus say:"If you take one away from five pence, what results?" |
| 11256 | The three questions to which I wish to make some answer in this chapter are:( 1) how was this population housed? |
| 11256 | Was it really popular at Rome? |
| 11256 | What are we to say of the Jupiter of the_ Aeneid_? |
| 11256 | What is the moral standard that will become clear to him, the sanction of right living that will grip his conscience? |
| 11256 | What was it that so greatly amused and pleased them? |
| 11256 | What was the need of children compared with my loyalty to you: why should I exchange certain happiness for an uncertain future? |
| 11256 | What were the moral effects of the system( 1) on the slaves themselves;( 2) on the freemen who owned them? |
| 11256 | What will he see? |
| 11256 | Which way am I to turn? |
| 11256 | and( 3) how was it employed? |
| 12561 | And how shall I describe the emotions I felt as we approached the plains of Troy? |
| 12561 | And why should it be otherwise here? |
| 12561 | But to what purpose would the unnatural mixture have been? |
| 12561 | But who shall describe my feelings of joy when I discovered a European among the passengers? |
| 12561 | For instance, would not a plain piece of beef have been a greater luxury to us on our journey than the most costly delicacies at home? |
| 12561 | I started, and thought I must be mistaken, for whom in the world could I meet here who knew my Christian name? |
| 12561 | Is this happiness dearly purchased by the dangers, fatigues, and privations attendant upon it? |
| 12561 | It was at once concluded by all that this ship must be a pirate, else why did she alter her course and give chase to us? |
| 12561 | Shall I ever see it again? |
| 12561 | The parting was certainly most bitter, for the thought involuntarily obtruded itself,"Should we ever meet again in this world?" |
| 12561 | We did not ask each other, Are you from England, France, Italy; we inquired, Whither are you going? |
| 12561 | Were it not well if in this matter we abated something of our conventionality and ostentation? |
| 12561 | What was to be done? |
| 12561 | What, indeed, are the entertainments of a large town compared to the Delta of the Nile, and many similar scenes? |
| 12561 | When will this dishonourable bigotry cease? |
| 12561 | Where, indeed, could a butterfly or a bee find nourishment, while not a flower nor a blade of grass shoots up from the stony earth? |
| 12561 | Why could he not put an end to the poor camel''s pain by a blow with a knife? |
| 12561 | Why could not an officer be appointed for these days to take care of the poor travellers? |
| 12561 | Why should fifty persons suffer for the convenience of one, and be deprived of their liberty for an extra day? |
| 12561 | Why should the pomp and extravagance of man accompany him to his last resting- place? |
| 12561 | Ye wretched madmen, ye poor fellahs, are ye too ready to join in this praise? |
| 12561 | wilt thou see him again, or will the cold ground be a barrier between you till this life is past? |
| 10877 | Caterina? |

| 10877 | Seeing his valet and confidant, Giustiniano da Sesena, he said:"We are going to Signore Lorenzino''s, but what shall I put on?" |
| 10877 | Was it instinct or was it second sight, which caused Isabella''s steps to falter on the threshold? |
| 10877 | Was not he, Ferdinando, Don Francesco''s heir- presumptive? |
| 10877 | What could it be? |
| 10877 | What else could it be? |

| 37953 | Among our cards was one from the Cardinal Di Pietro-- Doyen of the College of Cardinals-- coming first to see W. What would the Protocole say? |
| 37953 | Did you see the article in the"Français"saying"M. Waddington will now have all the rest of his life before him to consecrate to his studies"? |
| 37953 | Do you remember the"Poesia"on the ceiling of one of the rooms-- a lovely figure clad in light blue draperies, with a young, pure face? |
| 37953 | Do you remember what they used to tell us of Prince Massimo? |
| 37953 | He heard some one in the crowd saying,"What are all these men dressed up in gold lace and coloured ribbons?" |
| 37953 | He must have had a wonderful imagination-- I wonder if he believed angels look like that? |
| 37953 | How it took me back to old times? |
| 37953 | I said to one of them,"Should you like to marry a''bel Inglese''and go and live in another country far away from Capri with no sun nor blue sky?" |

| 37953 | We spoke English; she asked me if I had become very French( I wonder?) |
| 37953 | We went for a drive afterward out of Porta Maggiore to look at the Baker''s tomb-- do you remember it, a great square tomb with rows of little cells? |
| 20804 | ''Where is your pen?'' |
| 20804 | Are we thereby warranted in concluding that the younger Giovanni Borgia was a son of Alexander VI? |
| 20804 | But who, except those who had the power to do so could have compelled the court to remain silent? |
| 20804 | Could a young creature of only fourteen years remain pure in such an atmosphere? |
| 20804 | Could he believe in the immortality of the soul and the existence of a divine Being? |
| 20804 | Did Lucretia ever see the youthful artist, subsequently the friend of the noble lady, Vittoria Colonna, whose portrait he painted? |
| 20804 | Her intellect too, although uncultivated, must have been vigorous; for if not, how could she have maintained her relations with the cardinal? |
| 20804 | How did he overcome the warnings, the qualms of conscience, and how was it possible for him constantly to conceal them under a joyous exterior? |
| 20804 | Is this because she was guilty of the most hideous crimes, or is it simply because she has been unjustly condemned by the world to bear its curse? |
| 20804 | Madonna Adriana asked,''Is it true that she is not allowed to come here any more than she was permitted to go to Capodimonte and Marta?'' |
| 20804 | Num te iterum tinxit Venus? |
| 20804 | Vannozza doubtless was of great beauty and ardent passions; for if not, how could she have inflamed a Rodrigo Borgia? |
| 20804 | Was she also a child of the mother of Lucretia and Cæsar? |
| 20804 | Was the care with which Alexander had his unfortunate son- in- law watched merely a bit of deceit? |
| 20804 | What have you to say to me?" |
| 20804 | What shall I add? |
| 20804 | When he had departed, Lucretia said to Jacomino:"Did you hear what was said? |

| 36817 | Did the Romans welcome or reprobate the entry of"the Italians"? |
| 36817 | Does not the primitive man create his god by looking into himself? |
| 36817 | How can one expect the gambling of the poor to cease when even twelve_ centimes_( less than five farthings) may bring fifty francs? |
| 36817 | How have they behaved, and how have they altered since then? |
| 36817 | I enquired of the Father Guardian what happened now that exorcism was forbidden? |
| 36817 | Is it without reason that the furthest point of this unequalled panorama is the dome which Michael Angelo erected over the tomb of S. Peter? |
| 36817 | Is the Italian more cruel, more brutal, more wanton than his fellows? |
| 36817 | It will be said: these people at least were taught their religion? |
| 36817 | Rome is now entering on a third existence, its existence as the capital of Italy, but has it suffered thereby no_ diminutio capitis_? |
| 36817 | The critical method in history has destroyed the foundations of historical Protestantism: has it laid bare the foundations of historical Catholicism? |
| 36817 | To what side does the testimony of the Roman catacombs lean? |
| 36817 | What are we to say of a people who can unite the pettiest spite with a magnanimous tolerance? |
| 36817 | What more? |
| 36817 | Where did they come from? |
| 36817 | Who are the modern Roman people? |
| 36817 | Who will believe it if we add that they have an admirable patience? |

| 43607 | Of what use,he asked,"are reforms which have nothing definite, and lead to nothing? |
| 43607 | Venetians,he cried,"is this worthy of you? |
| 43607 | But what profits it to speak of glory, riches, and power? |
| 43607 | Can Italy say she has a place in the world? |
| 43607 | Could Manzoni have meant such words to speak other than of the Austrians and Bourbons who were grinding Italians into servitude? |
| 43607 | D''Azeglio agreed, though with ill grace, and in consequence was shortly after told by the King,"Do n''t you see that this man will turn you all out?" |
| 43607 | Does he find any? |
| 43607 | How could Austria hope to keep such men forever in subjection? |

| 41924 | Do not the masterpieces of modern literature hold in solution the best that can be got from them for future uses? |

| 41924 | Have not the ancients done as much for us as they can do? |
| 41924 | How could they return home and confess that the rhetoric of their Chancellor had been silenced by a witty secretary? |
| 41924 | How, for example, can we ascribe to Zeus the procreation of spurious as well as genuine offspring? |
| 41924 | If Cicero, Livy, and other illustrious ancients were to return to life, do you think they would understand their own works? |

| 49831 | How much? |
| 49831 | Of course,he said; we already had enough to carry; would the_ Signora_ forgive him for troubling her? |
| 49831 | To Rome? |
| 49831 | Which is the way to Terni? |
| 49831 | _ And the name of the going up the side of the hill is called Difficulty._"_ Is not the place dangerous? 49831 _ Perchè?_"we asked again. |
| 49831 | _ Perchè?_we asked. |
| 49831 | _ Who has not journeyed through a country with his favorite author long before he makes the actual trip himself? 49831 After all, what did he know about us except that, vagrant- like, we were wandering in the mountains at a most unseasonable hour? 49831 And I, had I any? 49831 And how far did we expect to go to- day? 49831 And that map of Tuscany we said we would give him, would we not remember it? 49831 And where had I bought my dress? 49831 But could he show us some fine frescos or sell us antiquities? 49831 But we wanted to see his house? 49831 But who ever knew the hour when the people of an Italian town were not up and abroad? 49831 But would we not now stay at her villa all night, instead of in Cortona? 49831 Could we tell him? 49831 Did not all his playmates see him ride by in his pride? 49831 Did we not know there were waterfalls, and famous ones too, but three miles distant? 49831 Had we ever tasted the famous Montepulciano,king of all wine"? |
| 49831 | Had we, by mischance, wandered into a Valley of the Shadow of Death? |
| 49831 | Hath it not hindered many in their pilgrimage?_"We left Siena the morning after the marionette exhibition. |
| 49831 | He himself was a professional letter- writer, and if the_ Signore_ had any letters he wished written--? |
| 49831 | How could he? |
| 49831 | How much more of this was there, we asked a woman watching swine on the hillside? |
| 49831 | In despair I broke in in French:"But, my father, can not we stay this one night?" |
| 49831 | Is it any wonder that we both lost our tempers, and that an accident was the smallest evil we wished the manufacturers of our tricycle? |
| 49831 | No, he answered; but would we like to look in the wine- press opposite? |
| 49831 | No? |
| 49831 | None but spirits could have sung there; and what spirits would dare to lift their voices in this famous street but those of Baglioni? |
| 49831 | Oh, is''t not strange that what they did so well In the Pen way meets in the Name Pen- nell? |
| 49831 | Perhaps_ monsieur_ speaks French? |
| 49831 | Should we stay long in Italy? |
| 49831 | The ticket- seller even came in, and in soft pleading tones said that we might have any places we wanted; why then should we choose the worst? |
| 49831 | Then one opened his mouth very wide and pointed to his teeth:"The little sir,"he asked,"is he a dentist?" |
| 49831 | To our"_ Perchè?_"he said it was the law. |
| 49831 | Was it not all America? |
| 49831 | Was it of value? |
| 49831 | Was there a rule like this at Monte Oliveto, and was six the hour when its bolts and bars were fastened against the stranger? |
| 49831 | Was this right? |
| 49831 | We could not take the time to visit them? |
| 49831 | We must not mix water with it; it was Christian, why then should it be baptized? |
| 49831 | Were they to dine with us? |

| 49831 | Would not the_ Signora_ have a handkerchief? |
| 49831 | Would we not go and dine and then come back? |
| 49831 | Would we write him postal cards to tell him of the distance and time we made? |
| 49831 | Yes, he assented, what was it I wanted? |
| 49831 | You know it? |
| 49831 | _ Chi lo sa?_--"Who knows?" |
| 49831 | and sometime we would come back to Empoli? |
| 49831 | and who, when he comes to see with his own eyes that at which he has hitherto looked through some one else''s, does not find himself his best guide? |
| 49831 | as much perhaps as a hundred francs? |
| 49831 | he exclaimed, of what use were they? |
| 49831 | what is this which Ime to sett before ye? |
| 4354 | Can you tell me the name of the stream which flows into the sea just beyond here? |
| 4354 | Do n''t you like_ bistecca_? |

| 4354 | The Signore is not well? |
| 4354 | What is the opinion of Pythagoras concerning wild fowl? |
| 4354 | What water is this? |
| 4354 | After all, who knows whether I have seen the Galaesus? |
| 4354 | And had I not richly known the recompense of my love? |
| 4354 | Are we to suppose that Consentia was depopulated? |
| 4354 | At length he burst out with an emphatic question; these same books, were they large? |
| 4354 | But who_ was_ he? |
| 4354 | CHAPTER XV MISERIA"What do people do here?" |
| 4354 | Cotrone interested me? |
| 4354 | Could I have food at once? |
| 4354 | Did I mean to say that books written more than a thousand years ago still existed? |
| 4354 | Did all go to the building of Roman dwellings and temples and walls, which since have crumbled or been buried? |
| 4354 | Did any one ever compare the expenses with the results? |
| 4354 | Did these virtuous brothers continue their literary labours? |
| 4354 | Do the rivers Busento and Crati still keep the secret of that"royal sepulchre, adorned with the splendid spoils and trophies of Rome"? |
| 4354 | Does the like exist elsewhere? |
| 4354 | Evidently this is the work of hot sun on moisture; but when was it done? |
| 4354 | Has Naples grown less noisy, or does it only seem so to me? |
| 4354 | Has no one informed me that in autumn snows descend, and bury everything for months? |
| 4354 | Having listened to this with as pleasant a smile as I could command, I caught the Doctor''s eye, and asked quietly,"Is there much congestion?" |
| 4354 | He knew the hotel, of course? |
| 4354 | How shall I get along with people whose language is a barbarous dialect? |
| 4354 | How, they questioned in turn, did_ I_ know anything about him? |
| 4354 | I had the fever? |
| 4354 | If I did not care for a beefsteak of veal, could I eat a beefsteak of mutton? |
| 4354 | Is Naples really so much quieter? |
| 4354 | Is it changed so greatly since the sixth century of our era? |
| 4354 | Is it really so certain that all virtues of race dwell with those who can rest amid the ugly and know it not for ugliness? |
| 4354 | Not, I could see, a tourist; yet how account for this health and vigour in a native of the district? |
| 4354 | Now what did I find interesting at Cotrone? |
| 4354 | Really? |
| 4354 | Seeing us on good terms, the elder boy drew near, and at once asked a puzzling question: When was the ruined church on the hillside to be rebuilt? |
| 4354 | Should I ever stand by the sacred column? |
| 4354 | Tea? |
| 4354 | The river? |
| 4354 | The_ orario_ for the month gave 4.56, and how could the time of a train be changed without public notice? |
| 4354 | These fishermen are the primitives of Taranto; who shall say for how many centuries they have hauled their nets upon the rock? |
| 4354 | They are not to be oppressed, these humble tillers of the soil, for is it not written that"My yoke is easy, and my burden light"? |
| 4354 | They too thought of journeying to Cosenza, and, in short, would I allow them to share my carriage? |
| 4354 | Was I aware that at Catanzaro I should suddenly find myself in a season of most rigorous winter? |
| 4354 | Was it not open to him to go and make inquiries at Loreto? |
| 4354 | Was it really procurable? |
| 4354 | Was it, he asked, at all like a chemist''s shop in London? |
| 4354 | Was the rebuilding to be next year? |
| 4354 | Was this the site of Scylaceum, or is it, as some hold, merely a mediaeval refuge which took the name of the old city nearer to the coast? |
| 4354 | Were they-- were they_ as large as a missal_? |
| 4354 | What has become of the ruins of Croton? |
| 4354 | What in the world was I doing with_ tanti libri_? |
| 4354 | What was I doing at Cotrone? |
| 4354 | What, in truth, do we know of him? |
| 4354 | Which of the two borrowed this information from the other? |
| 4354 | Who could find himself at Taranto without turning in thought to the Galaesus, and wishing to walk along its banks? |
| 4354 | Who knows? |
| 4354 | Why go to Catanzaro? |
| 4354 | Why had I come hither, if it was not that I loved land and people? |
| 4354 | Why, I wonder, has Reggio paid such exceptional attention to this department of its daily life? |
| 4354 | Would they show me-- the dining room? |
| 4354 | Yes, to be sure he could admit me to see his own orchard; but why did I wish to see it? |

| 46092 | ''What_ is_ the Palio?'' |
| 46092 | ''When you say,"What is the Palio?" |
| 46092 | And were not the flowers, those gay brave pennons of spring and summer, the quintessence of this Roman dust? |
| 46092 | And who of us but has wept over the Great Betrayal, and the passing of the beautiful Grifonetto, forgiven at the last by Atalanta? |
| 46092 | Can it be that I have dreamt of you, seeing some picture of a mediaeval city in a psalter? |
| 46092 | Can you wonder then that our Goddess, Imperial and lovely Rome, seemed to have stepped down among ordinary mortals? |
| 46092 | Did Ceres weep at Enna? |
| 46092 | Did he too love the memory of Francis? |
| 46092 | Did the rosy feet of Aphrodite ever press the sands of Paphos? |
| 46092 | Do you not think that the great Mother of Pity loves this rough sculpture best? |
| 46092 | Does any city frown so fiercely on the traveller as Orvieto? |
| 46092 | Hath it not been told you from the beginning? |
| 46092 | Have ye not heard? |
| 46092 | Have ye not known? |
| 46092 | Have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth? |
| 46092 | If there was dust, was it not dust of the dead? |
| 46092 | Is it not irony that all the rest should bear the names of saints, for Perugia, a city of turbulent desires, has ever bred more warriors than saints? |
| 46092 | Is it that they all bear the image of St. Peter''s and the Vatican in their minds? |
| 46092 | Is it the blood of Adonis which makes the stream of Carmel red? |
| 46092 | Is not all the dust in the world dust of the dead? |
| 46092 | Many times we had been greeted with the words,''_E Roma? |
| 46092 | Or the capers and the flowering rosemary, which made a garden of the ancient walls of Trevi? |
| 46092 | Or the subtle beauty of the Tiber, as it washed the skirts of Perugia''s hill? |
| 46092 | Or was it beyond his understanding that a man should dream of giving up all the world to follow a vision of eternal life? |
| 46092 | Or, if this does not stir you, would you rather learn romance from the nomenclature of her ancient gates? |
| 46092 | That we have conned it in a hundred other frescoes? |
| 46092 | Think of her name-- Perusia Augusta the Romans called her; was there ever a more lovely name, or one which History enriched with more poetic legends? |
| 46092 | Was it I who dreamt the rest? |
| 46092 | Was it a bird, or did I see a scrap of paper flutter from the window of that dark tower? |
| 46092 | Was it by chance, or to spite the other by diminishing his glory, that the Oca swaggered up at the same moment as his ancient enemy the Torre? |
| 46092 | We had lately come from there? |
| 46092 | Were they not Emperors too? |
| 46092 | What does it matter that the story has been often told? |
| 46092 | What little town in Italy has not? |
| 46092 | What of the night? |
| 46092 | Where had they gone? |
| 46092 | Who could forget the classic grace of Clitumnus, when he saw the clustered poplars soaring from the plain? |
| 46092 | Who could have dreamt that I should find her here, on this bleak hillside, in this austere old house? |
| 46092 | Who could he be? |
| 46092 | Who could resist her, this happy butterfly fashioned so beautifully for love on a golden summer day? |
| 46092 | Why not have left that sunken figure resting on such hard stones as it chose for comfort in life? |
| 16705 | The Kurd asked the barber:''Is my hair white or black?'' 16705 According to Vasari, Giorgione, like his master Bellini, painted the Doge Leonardo Loredan, but the picture, where is it? 16705 Aladdin''s lamp set it there: another rub and why should it not vanish? 16705 And where are others mentioned by Vasari and Ridolfi? 16705 And why not, since the religion both of the Pope and of General Booth was pre- eminently designed for the poor? 16705 And would Titian and Paul Veronese and Tintoretto have done all this for a Mayor and Corporation? 16705 But why do I put myself to the trouble of writing this when it has all been done for me by an earlier hand? 16705 Can there be discoveries of Giorgiones still to be made? 16705 Could he refuse? 16705 Do you suppose, however, that Signor Lionello Venturi will allow Giorgione to have painted a stroke to them? 16705 Does not Venetian history, with its triumphs and pageantry of world- power, prove it? 16705 Her princess''s crown is at the foot of the bed, or is it perchance her crown of glory? 16705 Here are a few:--What can the rose do in the sea, and the violet before the fire?" |
| 16705 | How much he ought to give? |
| 16705 | If one may be so near Titian''s autograph and the illuminated_ Divine Comedy_, why not this treasure too? |
| 16705 | Is it because they know how secondary a place woman holds in this city of well- nourished, self- satisfied men? |
| 16705 | Is it that they know that a girl''s life is so brief: one day as supple and active as they are now and the next a crone? |
| 16705 | Not bad surroundings for a saint, are they? |
| 16705 | Now what more can honeymooners ask? |
| 16705 | Of S. Mark''s what is one to say? |
| 16705 | Should it have all these hues? |
| 16705 | The Sistine Chapel in Rome is wonderful enough, with its frescoes; but what is the labour on a fresco compared with that on a mosaic? |
| 16705 | The gondolier even now is not always a model of courtesy and content; what will he be when the poison of machinery is in him? |
| 16705 | They do not appear to be scriptural; yet why should they be when the Labours of Hercules are illustrated in sculpture on the façade above them? |
| 16705 | They gave her, however( this, though from the lives of the saints, is sheer fairy tale, is n''t it?) |
| 16705 | What the spectators and church officials would think if he refused? |
| 16705 | Where many books could not exhaust the theme, what chance has only one? |
| 16705 | Whether it was quite the thing to bring the box so often and at such a season? |
| 16705 | Whether shaking it so noisily was not peculiarly tactless? |
| 16705 | Why did these? |
| 16705 | Why is this? |
| 16705 | Why lose one''s temper? |
| 16705 | Why not? |
| 16705 | Why should not the sacred remains be stolen from the Egyptian city and brought to Venice? |
| 16705 | With what feelings, one wonders, did Titian approach what he knew was his last work? |

| 13208 | ; that is, at the end of his second year as proconsul, unexpectedly, with no warning act to intimate such vigorous intent,--a surprise; and why? |
| 13208 | And Augustus, the head of the Republic, would he have tolerated such an outrage? |
| 13208 | And then, if he himself gave the example of disobeying his law, who would observe it? |
| 13208 | Are there not to be seen in recent centuries many men of power putting their greatness to risk and sometimes to ruin for love of a woman? |
| 13208 | Are there to- day Neros and Elagabaluses? |
| 13208 | Burrhus and Seneca, his two teachers, were naturally destined to be his counsellors; but why should not his mother also have helped him? |
| 13208 | But how? |
| 13208 | But who knows? |
| 13208 | But why was Italy, beginning with the time of Cæsar, so desperately anxious for peace and order? |
| 13208 | But you will ask me: how from so tiny a seed could ever grow so mighty a tree, covering with its branches so much of the earth? |
| 13208 | Can this man exalt in a people the consciousness of its own power, of its own energy, of its own value? |
| 13208 | Can this other serve to feed in the mass, odium and scorn of another party, of a government, of an order of things that it is desirable to injure? |
| 13208 | Could he imitate such an example? |
| 13208 | Could you imagine it possible to- day, even for a few weeks, to establish this regime of terror in the kingdom of Amor? |

| 13208 | Has this phenomenon changed nature, and from bad, by some miracle, become good? |
| 13208 | How can this apparently inexplicable fact be made clear? |
| 13208 | How can we explain this important difference in judging one of the essential phenomena of historic life? |
| 13208 | How could he risk such a grave imprudence? |
| 13208 | How did the Roman authorities come to such a conclusion? |
| 13208 | How then was the famous romance born? |
| 13208 | How was it formed? |
| 13208 | How?--why? |
| 13208 | In the modern world to- day are the abominable orgies carried on for which the Rome of the Cæsars was notorious? |
| 13208 | In this duel, what was the behaviour and the part of Livia, the mother of Tiberius? |
| 13208 | In what consists this particular force of attraction and renewal? |
| 13208 | It is impossible to oppose this course of reasoning, in itself most accurate; but what conclusion is to be drawn from it? |
| 13208 | Look about you: what do you see? |
| 13208 | Or are we wiser than our forefathers, judging with experience what they could hardly comprehend? |
| 13208 | Ought we therefore to conclude that it is wholly invented? |
| 13208 | Shall we therefore conclude that Augustus and Tiberius were useless? |

| 13208 | What proof more persuasive that during the early centuries of the Empire the Gauls greatly improved their industries and widened their markets? |
| 13208 | What should he do? |

| 13208 | What was the reason of this discord? |
| 13208 | What, in succeeding centuries, have been the changes in the enologic superiority conquered by Rome? |

| 11559 | 1302? |
| 11559 | 1344 Taddeo di Bartolo about 1362 1422 Spinello Aretino-- 1410 Masolino da Panicale 1384 1447? |
| 11559 | 1464? |
| 11559 | 1469 Filippino Lippi 1457 1504 Sandro Botticelli 1447 1510 Piero di Cosimo 1462 1521? |
| 11559 | 1506? |
| 11559 | 1534 Michael Angelo Buonarroti 1475 1564 Bartolommeo Vivarini-- after 1499 Jacopo Bellini 1400? |
| 11559 | Antonio Filarete-- 1465? |
| 11559 | Bending forward, leaning his chin upon his wrist, placing the other hand upon his knee, on what does he for ever ponder? |
| 11559 | But, it may be asked, what poems of action as well as feeling are to be expressed in this form- language? |
| 11559 | Could not the headland jutting out beyond Sarzana into the Tyrrhene Sea be carved by his workmen into a Pharos? |
| 11559 | Do we affect fashion in the grave?" |
| 11559 | Dreading lest death should come before the work were finished, he kept crying,"When will you make an end?" |
| 11559 | For though Thy promises our faith compel, Yet, Lord, what man shall venture to maintain That pity will condone our long neglect? |
| 11559 | Has he outlived his life and fallen upon everlasting contemplation? |
| 11559 | Has not art beneath his touch become more scenic, losing thereby somewhat of dramatic poignancy? |
| 11559 | Have I waited all these years; and now that I am Pope at last, shall I not have you for myself? |
| 11559 | If God Himself thus rules my destiny, Who, when I die, can lay the blame on thee? |
| 11559 | Is he brooding, injured and indignant, over his own doom and the extinction of his race? |
| 11559 | Is he condemned to witness in immortal immobility the woes of Italy he helped to cause? |
| 11559 | Luca della Robbia 1400 1482 Agostino di Duccio-- after 1461 Antonio Rossellino 1427 1478? |
| 11559 | Masaccio 1402 1429 Paolo Uccello 1397 1475 Andrea del Castagno 1396 1457 Piero della Francesca 1420? |
| 11559 | Michael Angelo asked,"Where am I to place it?" |
| 11559 | Or has the sculptor symbolised in him the burden of that personality we carry with us in this life and bear for ever when we wake into another world? |
| 11559 | Perchance in heaven poverty is a pleasure: But of that better life what hope have we, When the blessed banner leads to nought but ill? |
| 11559 | Shorten half- way my road to heaven from earth? |
| 11559 | Therefore because I can not shun the blow I rather seek, say who must rule my breast, Gliding between her gladness and her woe? |
| 11559 | Those amorous thoughts which were so lightly dressed, What are they when the double death is nigh? |
| 11559 | What law, what destiny, what fell control, What cruelty, or late or soon, denies That death should spare perfection so complete? |
| 11559 | What might he not have done if he had lived? |
| 11559 | What must the houses and the churches once have been, from which these spoils were taken, but which still remain so rich in masterpieces? |
| 11559 | What was the difference between Michael Angelo and a Greek? |
| 11559 | What, for example, occupies Lorenzo''s brain? |
| 11559 | What, let us ask in the first place, was the task appointed for the fine arts on the threshold of the modern world? |
| 11559 | Who, indeed, can affirm that he would wish the floating figure of Eve, or the three angels at Abraham''s tent- door, other than they are? |
| 11559 | Why need my aching heart to death aspire When all must die? |
| 11559 | Why then should we reject tradition in this instance? |
| 11559 | Yet are we right in assuming that he meant the female figure in this group for Aphrodite, the sleeping man for Ares? |
| 11559 | Yet who in Rome, among the courtiers of the Borgias, had brain or heart to understand these things? |
| 11559 | [ 328]"È possibile che voi, che_ per essere divino non degnate il consortio degli huomini_, haviate ciò fatto nel maggior tempio di Dio?.... |
| 11559 | [ 3] All Thy strength and bloom are faded: Who hath thus Thy state degraded? |
| 11559 | where are you now?''" |
| 12588 | How grateful they must have been,replied the Englishman;"did not they come and thank you for having obtained their deliverance?" |
| 12588 | I shall be asked,he said,"how can this treaty be of use to Italy?" |
| 12588 | A literary reputation? |
| 12588 | Afterwards he met Prince Napoleon, who replied to his reproaches,"_ Mais enfin_, do you want us to sacrifice France and our dynasty to you?" |
| 12588 | At this stage in his political life most of Cavour''s biographers pause to discuss the often- put question, Was he already aiming at Italian unity? |
| 12588 | But did Napoleon mean what he said? |
| 12588 | But, he adds bitterly, what was the good of demanding such a promise from one for whom politically everything was ended? |
| 12588 | Can we conceive Cavour''s immense energy limited to a rice- field? |
| 12588 | Could the gods be trusted to make her mad? |
| 12588 | Did it savour too much of Mazzini? |
| 12588 | For the rest, he added characteristically, When a course became the only one, what was the good of counting up its dangers? |
| 12588 | He went on to inquire, what real inducement was there for him to abandon his native land? |
| 12588 | He, who had tried to make the Italian cause look respectable, as well as meritorious, asked himself what these improvised statesmen would do next? |
| 12588 | His ancestors fought the stranger without troubling themselves about representative government-- why should not he? |
| 12588 | How could it sound to the other Italian princes? |
| 12588 | If others were planned with equal deliberation, could the result be doubted? |
| 12588 | In his answer to this proposition, he asks first of all, what have his parents done that he should plunge a knife into their hearts? |
| 12588 | It has often been asked, Why did he not allow the cession to wear the honest colour of surrender to force? |
| 12588 | Might not an Italian minister, relying on the support of England, have ignored them and passed on his way? |
| 12588 | Might they not hope that the head of the Church would accept the offered terms? |
| 12588 | She had allowed the Grand Duke of Tuscany and the King of Naples to fall; why should she be more concerned for the Pope? |
| 12588 | Since most princesses made unhappy marriages, what did it matter if Prince Napoleon was a promising bridegroom or not? |
| 12588 | The good Massimo got no comfort from the king:"Do n''t you see that this man will turn you all out?" |
| 12588 | The populations of Central Italy desired Victor Emmanuel for their king-- Was he to accept or refuse? |
| 12588 | The question was, Would it be possible for one capable brain to bend them to its purposes''? |
| 12588 | Then he went on,"Must I believe that Count Cavour will desert the camp on the eve of battle; that he will abandon us all?" |
| 12588 | Then suddenly he seemed to recover his spirits, as, turning to M. de Talleyrand, he said,"Maintenant nous sommes complices, n''est ce pas vrai?" |
| 12588 | To have known you for an instant fills a long existence; how can you love me, weak as I am?" |
| 12588 | Victoire,"how indifferent Camille seemed when I spoke to him of the Paris theatres? |
| 12588 | Was he therefore, mindful of their old warfare, to vote against this Bill in order to place difficulties in the way of the Ministry? |
| 12588 | Was he to run after a little celebrity, a little glory, without ever reaching the real goal of his ambition? |
| 12588 | Was he wrong? |
| 12588 | Was it likely that he wished to treat them ill? |
| 12588 | Was that the part which Cavour dreamed of playing? |
| 12588 | Was there ever such midsummer madness? |
| 12588 | What becomes, then, of his threats? |
| 12588 | What if it never came? |
| 12588 | What if the laurels he had spoken of were never won at all? |
| 12588 | What influence could he exercise in favour of his unhappy brothers in a country where egotism monopolised the high places? |
| 12588 | What other inference can be deduced from the strange and romantic story of the suppression of the Jesuits? |
| 12588 | What was he to do? |
| 12588 | What was its real meaning for the Pope? |
| 12588 | What was the good of wasting efforts on some sort of English constitution, perhaps with a House of Lords and other such abominations? |
| 12588 | What was the mass of foreigners doing which had been thrown into Paris by choice or misfortune? |
| 12588 | What would be the effect of a single defeat on such an army? |
| 12588 | What, then, could make her? |
| 12588 | Who among them was useful to his fellow- men? |
| 12588 | Who could plead Italy''s cause in a congress in which Austria had a voice? |
| 12588 | Who was the third? |
| 12588 | Why go through the farce of plebiscites so"arranged"that the result was a foregone conclusion? |
| 12588 | Why had there been no revolution in England? |
| 12588 | Why was this? |
| 12588 | Why, it may be asked, did he not stop the whole affair by placing Garibaldi under lock and key? |
| 12588 | Why,"against his conviction,"as he confessed in private, did he declare that Nice was not Italian? |
| 12588 | With regard to the volunteers, had he not himself instituted them in 1859 in the teeth of all kinds of opposition? |
| 12588 | With the king and the best part of the army in the south, who was there to oppose them? |
| 12588 | Would the same fortune be with the allies to the end? |
| 12588 | to the First Consul? |
| 43252 | And now what do you suppose came along and saw the children? |
| 43252 | And what is the bird of America, Arthur? |
| 43252 | And would people go to see such terrible things for their own pleasure? |
| 43252 | Are there any real harpies? |
| 43252 | Are you ready with your story, father? |
| 43252 | But how will she manage to travel so far? 43252 But what will mother do with me away all day long?" |
| 43252 | But where was their old home, father? 43252 Dear old Bruno,"said Tessa,"you took care of me when I was a baby, did n''t you? |
| 43252 | Did he escape? |
| 43252 | Did he really live, father, or is this only a legend? |
| 43252 | Did you ever hear of anything so odd? 43252 Do n''t you see him creeping along that stone wall? |
| 43252 | Do you know the name of the river over which this bridge is built? |
| 43252 | Do you see what Arthur is doing? |
| 43252 | Does n''t any one speak in Latin now, father? |
| 43252 | How did you know about their food? |
| 43252 | How long ago do they say all this happened, father? |
| 43252 | How would you like to go to the carnival? |
| 43252 | In five minutes, ca n''t we, mother? |
| 43252 | Is that all, father? |
| 43252 | It is only two o''clock now; how soon can you all be ready? |
| 43252 | It is queer, is n''t it? 43252 Oh, father, do you suppose all this was really true?" |
| 43252 | Once upon a time there were two little boys--"But when was this''once upon a time?'' |
| 43252 | Pretty hard not to move about freely, little one, is n''t it? |
| 43252 | Shall we not be crowded worse than we were last night? |
| 43252 | They are ugly little things, are n''t they? 43252 Was it where Rome stands now?" |
| 43252 | What are they doing? |
| 43252 | What are those large mounds we are passing? |
| 43252 | What do you mean? 43252 What is the bird of your country, Beppo?" |
| 43252 | What is this show? 43252 What was the fable, and who was Agrippa, and why did he come out on this dreary place to tell a story?" |
| 43252 | Who will take care of the baby while she works in the garden? 43252 Why do you speak of it as a''sacred ruin,''father?" |
| 43252 | Why is he such a great man, and why do the people give him such reverence? |
| 43252 | Why, what do you mean, father? |
| 43252 | You are going to take us to see the city before we go back to Rome, are n''t you, father? |
| 43252 | And Pompeii is several miles away, is n''t it, father?" |
| 43252 | And what do you think she saw? |
| 43252 | And who will help her pull the weeds?" |
| 43252 | Are n''t the ladies in it pretty, Beppo? |
| 43252 | Beppo, do I look all right? |
| 43252 | But does Tessa know its name?" |
| 43252 | But how shall we manage it with our family of four children?" |
| 43252 | But what could a poor stupid donkey be expected to care about a baby only a day old? |
| 43252 | But what shall Tessa wear? |
| 43252 | But where was Francesca now? |
| 43252 | But why was the Pope to be present in the church Christmas Eve? |
| 43252 | Ca n''t we go home now and have our Christmas tree?" |
| 43252 | Ca n''t you imagine you hear the roars of wild beasts that were once kept in vaults beneath the building? |
| 43252 | Could it be true that this lovely wax doll was her very own? |
| 43252 | Did you ever eat them, Lucy? |
| 43252 | Did you ever notice a lizard''s feet?" |
| 43252 | Do n''t we, father?" |
| 43252 | Do you think the artist will take me?" |
| 43252 | Do you think, wife, that you will be able to mount them?" |
| 43252 | How do you do, my child? |
| 43252 | I should think it would be better than the lard we have in America, is n''t it?" |
| 43252 | If it is now 1,903 years since his birth, how many years old is Rome?" |
| 43252 | It looks something like a man''s boot, do n''t you think so? |
| 43252 | Mamma, did Bruno really rock the cradle and keep the flies off, so I could sleep?" |
| 43252 | May I tell her, babbo?" |
| 43252 | Say, Tessa, is there a nice chestnut cake waiting for our supper? |
| 43252 | The odd way the toes swell out on the edges?" |
| 43252 | Their father came up to them at this moment, and said:"How would you like to take a carriage now and visit the Coliseum? |
| 43252 | They said the city must be on one of these hills, but which hill should it be? |
| 43252 | Were they drowned?" |
| 43252 | What can be the reason for its being there?" |
| 43252 | What could have happened to her? |
| 43252 | What do you say, my boy?" |
| 43252 | What do you say, sister?" |
| 43252 | What do you say?" |
| 43252 | What do you think?" |
| 43252 | What does this word"carnival"mean? |
| 43252 | What shall we do when you go back to America?" |
| 43252 | What should be done? |
| 43252 | What was his name now, you ask? |
| 43252 | What would an Italian do without hands to help him in talking? |
| 43252 | Where would he be now, if Columbus had not discovered the new world? |
| 43252 | Who should say? |
| 43252 | Will father take us to Saint Peter''s then, do you think?" |
| 43252 | Will you, father dear?" |
| 43252 | Would Arthur tell him the story some day? |
| 43252 | Would you like to go down into the garden and walk among the flowers for a little while?" |
| 43252 | You know the story of Columbus, do n''t you, Beppo?" |
| 43252 | do you really mean it?" |
| 10883 | But why need I make a long story by going into everything which it is your duty to do? 10883 Yet, why need we use foreign examples, when we have some of our own? |
| 10883 | in it? |
| 10883 | And to have only one''s human part waste away, but to live through the child as successor? |
| 10883 | And what are these suggestions? |
| 10883 | And what name could one properly give to the elected magistrates, whom from the first he allowed to hold office for an unusually long time? |
| 10883 | Being again asked by Tiberius:"Why has it pleased you to revolt and to war against us so long a time?" |
| 10883 | But so far as you are concerned the city is perishing.--Romans? |
| 10883 | But you do not perform the offices of men.--Citizens? |
| 10883 | Do you desire to live forever apart from women, as the vestal virgins live apart from men? |
| 10883 | Do you not see how many are attacking both me and our sovereignty? |
| 10883 | For a woman taller than mankind confronted him and said:"Whither are thou hastening, insatiable Drusus? |
| 10883 | Gaius called to him and asked:"What do I seem to you to be?" |
| 10883 | How can it be otherwise, if no one is permitted to be born nobly or to grow rich honestly or to become strong, brave, or learned? |
| 10883 | How can the commonwealth be preserved if we neither marry nor produce children? |
| 10883 | How could I any longer be rightfully named your father, if you rear no children? |
| 10883 | How could I call myself a good ruler over you if I should endure seeing you becoming constantly fewer? |
| 10883 | How could you be happy if deprived of them? |
| 10883 | How could you hold out in your enfeebled state? |
| 10883 | How could you participate in human enjoyments? |
| 10883 | How otherwise shall families continue? |
| 10883 | How shall he treat them? |
| 10883 | Is it not best that they should secure no superior honors except as a result of excellence? |
| 10883 | Narcissus had taken the floor and said to him:"What would you have done, Galæsus, if Camillus had become monarch?" |
| 10883 | Or again Pharnaces, Juba, Phraates, the campaign against the Britons, the crossing of the Rhine? |
| 10883 | Or his rewards offered to those who married and had children? |
| 10883 | Or the prizes given to the soldiers without disadvantage to any other person? |
| 10883 | Second, is any one unaware of the necessity under which you were led to take this action? |
| 10883 | Thereupon the other replied:"Why, what harm have I done by keeping in the senate one whom you even now still permit to be high priest?" |
| 10883 | Tiberius rejoined:"How is it feasible for the same man both to make the division and to choose?" |
| 10883 | To whom more justly than to me, his child and successor, could be the task of praising him be confided? |
| 10883 | What allies would obey him? |
| 10883 | What could cause you real pleasure? |
| 10883 | What enemy would not hold him in contempt? |
| 10883 | What good could an ignorant or low- born person accomplish? |
| 10883 | What oblivion is dark enough to bury all this? |
| 10883 | What seed of human beings would be left, if all the remainder of mankind should do the same as you? |
| 10883 | What then shall he do with them? |
| 10883 | When would you be free from biting grief? |
| 10883 | Who does not understand the fact that not all mankind assembled in one place could worthily sound his praises? |
| 10883 | Who was there that could rule even his private possessions better than Augustus, to say nothing of the goods of so many human beings? |
| 10883 | Who would not be indignant to see that we had spoken words of one tenor, but to ascertain that we had had something different in mind? |
| 10883 | Who, even of the soldiers themselves, would not disdain to be ruled by such a man? |
| 10883 | Why is it? |
| 10883 | Why need I cite the other less important men? |
| 10883 | Why should I lengthen my speech by going into each one of them in detail? |
| 10883 | Why should one speak at length to enumerate his deeds in the wars both at home and abroad? |
| 10883 | Why, then, should one fear this man or that man, defenceless, private citizens, here in the middle of your empire and enclosed by your armed forces? |
| 10883 | Will it not be most glorious to leave so exalted a sovereignty and voluntarily become a plain citizen? |
| 10883 | [-28-]"From what source, then, will the money come for these warriors and for the other expenses that will be found necessary? |
| 10883 | [-8-] Who could be found more magnanimous than I( not to mention again my father deceased) or whose conduct more godlike? |
| 10883 | he enquired blankly:"Are you calling_ me_?" |
| 13481 | As to Terentia-- there are other things without number of which I do n''t speak-- what can be worse than this? 13481 How long, Catiline,"he cried,"will you abuse our patience?" |
| 13481 | How many miles is your farm from Rome? |
| 13481 | I have got the sixteen in the matter you know of; and now, where is the money? |
| 13481 | Impiety? |
| 13481 | Is it not cause enough that at my age Alexander had conquered half the world, while I have done nothing? |
| 13481 | Is there any thing,he asked,"that your ward has not made good, and which we ought to require of him?" |
| 13481 | Restored to the perpendicular? 13481 The cause?" |
| 13481 | Well, what can I do? 13481 What is this?" |
| 13481 | What is to be done? |
| 13481 | Who in the world are these Pindenissi? 13481 Why does no one kill this man?" |
| 13481 | Why then,was the rejoinder,"have you not given me a sword that I may set my country free?" |
| 13481 | Will you think me a fool,he writes to Atticus,"if I do the same at the Academy? |
| 13481 | ''And whom do_ you_ want to go?'' |
| 13481 | ''If from five ounces be subtracted one, what is the remainder?'' |
| 13481 | ''Who wants to go to Alexandria?'' |
| 13481 | ''Why are you so sad?'' |
| 13481 | A Charybdis, do I say? |
| 13481 | An old man ran out from the crowd, and without so much as greeting the new comer, cried,"Where did you leave Demetrius? |
| 13481 | And as for the fate which is the fate of all, how can it be the unhappiness of one?" |
| 13481 | And his household-- why should I describe how many it numbers, and how varied are its accomplishments? |
| 13481 | And if they were slaves, where, again I ask, are they? |
| 13481 | And is it such a disgrace to live in the country? |
| 13481 | And their water- courses, to which they give the fine names of Nile or Euripus, who would not laugh at them when he sees your streams? |
| 13481 | And what evidence do you bring forward? |
| 13481 | And what shall I say about my dear little Cicero? |
| 13481 | Are you going to bind my hands and give me up to Caesar? |
| 13481 | Caesar turned upon him, seized the dagger, and held it fast, crying at the same time in Latin,''Casca, thou villain, what art thou about?'' |
| 13481 | Did he disinherit him? |
| 13481 | Do you remember in Caecilius''play how the father had two sons, and kept one with him and left the other in the country? |
| 13481 | For what do you indict a man so blameless? |
| 13481 | For what? |
| 13481 | Groaned at what? |
| 13481 | Has A. broken the law?" |
| 13481 | He called a slave and asked,"Who has taken my sword?" |
| 13481 | He would listen to no entreaties,"Am I a madman,"he said,"that I am stripped of my arms? |
| 13481 | How did he hire them? |
| 13481 | How had he dared to come to that meeting? |
| 13481 | I then showed Lentulus his letter, and asked him,''Do you acknowledge the seal?'' |
| 13481 | If an ounce be added what does it make?'' |
| 13481 | If she was capable of abstracting such a trifle from so small a sum, do n''t you see what she would have done in matters of real importance?" |
| 13481 | If the same ill fortune shall continue to pursue us, what will happen to our unhappy boy? |
| 13481 | If they were free men where did they come from, where live? |
| 13481 | It was the maxim of a famous lawyer, Ask:_ who profited by the deed_? |
| 13481 | Now what am I to do? |
| 13481 | One example he gives is this,"Was Crates the philosopher right when, having met an ignorant boy, he administered a beating to his teacher?" |
| 13481 | Pale with fury he turned to his followers, and in the midst of the uproar asked them,''Who is it that is killing the people with hunger?'' |
| 13481 | Perhaps you will say,''What was there in this?'' |
| 13481 | Suspicious, do I say? |
| 13481 | That any one had ventured into that chamber at the very time when there were in it two young men who would certainly perceive and defeat the attempt? |
| 13481 | That neither knew any thing about it? |
| 13481 | The question was, Was it true? |
| 13481 | They had murdered his father, they had robbed him of his patrimony, and now they accused him-- of what crime? |
| 13481 | To whom did he say so? |
| 13481 | To whom did it belong? |
| 13481 | Was it to be given to a beardless youth, too young even to sit in the Senate?" |
| 13481 | Was there ever a Charybdis so devouring? |
| 13481 | Were they free men or slaves? |
| 13481 | What could be so suspicious? |
| 13481 | What do you want to know? |
| 13481 | What else could he be when he so cheated the deputation that went to Sulla at Volaterrae?" |
| 13481 | What need to tell you more? |
| 13481 | When will he come?" |
| 13481 | Where is the proof? |
| 13481 | Who stopped him? |
| 13481 | Who were these others? |
| 13481 | Why did he dislike him? |
| 13481 | Why do you not produce them? |
| 13481 | Why had Atticus hindered his purposes when he thought of putting an end to all his trouble by killing himself? |
| 13481 | Why had Hortensius advised him to retire from the struggle? |
| 13481 | Why had he listened to the bad advice of his friends? |
| 13481 | Why were all his friends, why was Atticus himself, so lukewarm in his cause? |
| 13481 | Why? |
| 13481 | Would the King lend some of the more beautiful cups to his excellency? |
| 13481 | Would they leave it with him for a time? |
| 13481 | said Catulus, to one of them,"what did you want a guard for? |
| 13481 | that the money should not be taken from you?" |
| 13481 | what do you mean?" |
| 13481 | what senate? |
| 13481 | who are they?" |
| 16927 | ''Am I,''he said,''to 47 expose all your splendid courage and devotion to further risks? |
| 16927 | ''Comrade,''said Galba,''who bade you?'' |
| 16927 | ''Do you imagine,''he said,''that Vitellius will be so hard- hearted as not to show me some gratitude for saving his whole household? |
| 16927 | ''How much further is our ruin to go?'' |
| 16927 | ''Peasants that you are,''he shouted,''have you another emperor, another camp waiting to shelter you, if you are defeated? |
| 16927 | ''What sort of a march would this be? |
| 16927 | Am I the man to allow the flower of Rome in all these famous armies to be mown down once again and lost to the country? |
| 16927 | Am I to be numbered with Numisius and Herennius? |
| 16927 | And all for what? |
| 16927 | And what am I to call you? |
| 16927 | And what was the cause of war? |
| 16927 | And what will be the issue of your crime, when the Roman legions take the field against you? |
| 16927 | And, if fortune favours, who gains the glory? |
| 16927 | Are those who offer it ready to run the risk themselves? |
| 16927 | Are you going to allow less than thirty deserters and renegades to bestow the crown? |
| 16927 | Are you going to allow this precedent, and by your acquiescence make their crime your own? |
| 16927 | Are you going to begin storming the town when you can not possibly see where the ground is level and how high the walls are? |
| 16927 | But now-- are we to go and pray for Otho or for Vitellius? |
| 16927 | But what sort of repute or position would your son Germanicus[176] enjoy? |
| 16927 | Could it be the memory of his misdeeds that so oppressed him? |
| 16927 | Do you imagine that the stability of this beautiful city consists in houses and edifices built of stone upon stone? |
| 16927 | For his effeminate costume? |
| 16927 | For his swaggering demeanour? |
| 16927 | For if the Romans were driven out-- which Heaven forbid-- what could ensue save a universal state of intertribal warfare? |
| 16927 | Forum Alieni(? |
| 16927 | Had they not under Mark Antony defeated the Parthians[69] and the Armenians under Corbulo? |
| 16927 | Have you forgotten Corbulo''s murder? |
| 16927 | How do you know whether to assault it with engines and showers of missiles, or with penthouses and shelters? |
| 16927 | How often have not Roman soldiers chosen to die rather than be driven from their post? |
| 16927 | How then can we suppose that the troops of Otho and Vitellius would have willingly stopped the war? |
| 16927 | If he had opposed so distinguished a man as Thrasea, why should not Helvidius oppose him? |
| 16927 | If we hesitate to touch a mere ex- quaestor, shall we be any bolder when he has been praetor and consul? |
| 16927 | If we wait for day it will be all peace and petitions, and what shall we get for our wounds and our labours? |
| 16927 | Is he not the man who without the least excuse butchered thousands of utterly innocent soldiers? |
| 16927 | Or do you suppose that the race of tyrants came to an end in Nero? |
| 16927 | Saevinus(?) |
| 16927 | Shall a Batavian give you the signal for battle? |
| 16927 | Suppose the Germans and Gauls lead the way to the walls of Rome, will you turn your arms upon your fatherland? |
| 16927 | The crime was his country''s, he cried; what share had a single soldier in these civil wars? |
| 16927 | Then they kept asking them,''Have you got your sword on?'' |
| 16927 | Were we fighting for our country? |
| 16927 | What answer can we give when they question us about our victory or our defeat?'' |
| 16927 | What forces are there left in Italy? |
| 16927 | What good have we done by slaughtering and burning Roman legions except to bring out others, larger and stronger? |
| 16927 | What had they against them? |
| 16927 | What have we now? |
| 16927 | What if Gaul throws off the yoke? |
| 16927 | What if it flourish and prosper? |
| 16927 | What is the good of waiting until Otho sets his camp in order and approaches the Capitol, while Galba peeps out of a window? |
| 16927 | What province is there in the empire that has not been polluted with massacre? |
| 16927 | What though fortune and courage have deserted us for the moment, have we not glorious examples in the past? |
| 16927 | What though you and I can talk plainly with each other to- day? |
| 16927 | What was the good of killing one youth and one old man? |
| 16927 | What would be the good of all his horse and foot, if one or two traitors should seek the reward the enemy offered and assassinate him then and there? |
| 16927 | When they answered no,''Well,''he said,''could any troops possibly break through walls or undermine them with nothing but swords and javelins? |
| 16927 | Where can we get funds and supplies in the meanwhile? |
| 16927 | Whom would they have to lead them? |
| 16927 | Why not rather wait one night till our siege- train arrives and then carry the victory by force?'' |
| 16927 | Why should all these companies of brave soldiers be commanded by one miserable old invalid? |
| 16927 | Why should he deserve to be emperor? |
| 16927 | Why should we drag on the war into another summer? |
| 16927 | Why take the throne from Nero, if it was to be left to Otho? |
| 16927 | Why turn a compliment to the emperor into a slight upon some one else? |
| 16927 | Will you stand sentry for the Treviran Tutor? |
| 16927 | Will you swell the ranks of German hordes? |
| 16927 | Would their conqueror keep his promises any longer than he liked? |
| 16927 | [ 10] And what was the force that broke through the Vitellians? |
| 16927 | [ 177] Do you suppose that Vespasian''s is a loftier disposition? |
| 16927 | [ 241] If he were a private citizen, why adopt the official tone? |

| 16927 | [ 535]? |

| 16927 | [ 7] Besides, what good to us are the ramparts of the mountains? |

| 16927 | what the recompense for such a disaster? |
| 10890 | ,Do n''t you know that you are Caesar? |
| 10890 | ,Have not you the authority over them rather than they over you?" |

| 10890 | And upon Vespasian''s enquiring"Where to?" |
| 10890 | Another in reply to a question:"What is the emperor doing?" |
| 10890 | At intervals one soldier would have a private chat with an opponent:--"Comrade, fellow- citizen, what are we doing? |
| 10890 | Besides pasturing and tilling all the various regions for them do we not contribute a yearly sum for our very bodies? |
| 10890 | By Jupiter, does none of you fight as gladiator? |
| 10890 | Cassius Longinus_( ibid)..] because he possessed a likeness of Cassius, the murderer of Caesar? |
| 10890 | Does it add much to mention that Nero ordered Paris the dancer killed because he wished to learn dancing from him and was disappointed? |
| 10890 | Fabius(? |
| 10890 | For if we utterly lose sight of the happy conditions amid which we were born and bred, what pray will they do, reared in bondage? |
| 10890 | For soon there was nothing to be observed but many fires as in a camp, and no other phrases fell from men''s lips but"This or that is burning";"Where? |
| 10890 | For what reason have you wished to kill us?" |
| 10890 | Galba, believing this, said to him:"And who ordered you to do that?" |
| 10890 | Has not faith, has not hope perished? |
| 10890 | Have we not been deprived of our most numerous and our greatest possessions entire, while for what remains we must pay taxes? |
| 10890 | He persisted in his refusal to grant him audience, and when the person asked:"Where shall I go, then?" |
| 10890 | How then could one fail to be astonished at the expenditure made upon them? |
| 10890 | If not, how is it and for what purpose that some persons have bought his shields and the famous golden helmets?" |
| 10890 | In very truth Plautianus had grown great and more than great, so that even the populace at the hippodrome exclaimed:"Why do you tremble? |
| 10890 | Is it not absurd to be involved in civil conflict? |
| 10890 | Is it not afflicting for us to meet war after war? |
| 10890 | Julius(?) |
| 10890 | Next he came to despise instruction, inasmuch as he was always hearing from his associates,"Do_ you_ submit to this?" |
| 10890 | Or that he banished Caecina Tuscus, governor of Egypt, for bathing in the tub that had been specially constructed for his coming visit to Alexandria? |
| 10890 | Or the manner in which each of them was placed in a river so deep, in water so full of eddies, on ground so slimy? |
| 10890 | Papinianus the prefect asked him:"For what reason did you become a robber?" |
| 10890 | So it was that Julianus came to be slain as he was reclining in the palace itself; he had only time to say:"Why, what harm have I done? |
| 10890 | Some of the guard kept reporting and saying to Julianus:"Sulpicianus is willing to give so much; now what will you add?" |
| 10890 | Sulla that bulletined the names of others, but Nero bulletined his own name? |
| 10890 | The other rejoined:"For what reason are you a prefect?" |
| 10890 | The same(?) |
| 10890 | They first said this, and afterward, applying the terms"Queen"and"Immortal"to Rome, they roared:"How long are we to suffer such experiences?" |
| 10890 | They had approached Rome without meeting any hindrance, when Commodus met them and enquired:"Why is this, fellow- soldiers? |
| 10890 | What does your presence signify?" |
| 10890 | What is this? |
| 10890 | What treatment have we met with that is not most outrageous, that is not most grievous, ever since these men insinuated themselves into Britain? |
| 10890 | What virtue, what friendship shall henceforth be deemed secure after this experience of mine? |
| 10890 | Who, then, will call such a person Caesar and emperor and Augustus? |
| 10890 | Whom have I killed?" |
| 10890 | Why are we fighting? |
| 10890 | Why are you pale? |
| 10890 | Why do you put it off, when you might do it this very day?" |
| 10890 | Why is it that though none of us has any money,--and how or whence should we get it?,--we are stripped and despoiled like a murderer''s victims? |
| 10890 | Why rage against Fate, that is all- powerful? |
| 10890 | Why should one go into the details of these affairs? |
| 10890 | Why then do you delay? |
| 10890 | Why, then, should one stop to lament the misfortunes of other victims? |

| 11448 | What makes an action right or wrong? 11448 What reason is there", he asks,"why, when I have bought, built, repaired, and laid out much money, another shall come and enjoy the fruits of it?" |
| 11448 | What should induce the Deity to perform the functions of an Aedile, to light up and decorate the world? 11448 What will history say of me six hundred years hence?" |
| 11448 | Who does not know what my return home was like? 11448 Wouldest thou propitiate the gods? |
| 11448 | Yea, was his reply;"but where are those commemorated who were drowned?" |
| 11448 | After all, what is our eyesight worth? |
| 11448 | And I should like to ask them how they hid themselves, and where? |
| 11448 | And did you even think that I was unwilling to see you? |
| 11448 | And lastly( a point of casuistry which must sometimes perplex the strictest conscience), of two''things honest'',[2] which is most so?" |
| 11448 | And what is this courage? |
| 11448 | And what is this pleasure which he makes of such high account? |
| 11448 | But we do not understand even our own bodies; how, then, can we have an eyesight so piercing as to penetrate the mysteries of heaven and earth?" |
| 11448 | But what consolation can we bring to ease the pain of the Epicurean? |
| 11448 | But what says Milo? |
| 11448 | But who is to fix the limit to such vague concessions? |
| 11448 | But why, continues Cicero, why add to the miseries of life by brooding over death? |
| 11448 | Can anything console the sufferer? |
| 11448 | Could I possibly be angry with you?... |
| 11448 | Did we not say that Cicero was modern, not ancient? |
| 11448 | Did you really fear that I was angry, because I sent off the slaves without any letter to you? |
| 11448 | Do you remember that before you put on the robe of manhood, you were a bankrupt? |
| 11448 | Few modern brothers, probably, would write to each other in such terms as these:"Afraid lest your letters bother me? |
| 11448 | For if formerly, when you had good examples to imitate, you were still not much of a proficient in that way, how can I suppose you will get on now? |
| 11448 | He here resolves the question, If honour and interest seem to clash, which is to give way? |
| 11448 | How can I describe those days, when all kept holiday, as though it were some high festival of the immortal gods, in joy for my safe return? |
| 11448 | How could a man best bear pain and the other miseries of life? |
| 11448 | How shall I learn to choose between my principles and my interests? |
| 11448 | How the people of Brundusium held out to me, as I might say, the right hand of welcome on behalf of all my native land? |
| 11448 | I angry with you? |
| 11448 | I very nearly collapsed, gentlemen, when a man asked me what day I had left Rome, and whether there was any news stirring? |
| 11448 | I wish you would bother me, and re- bother me, and talk to me and at me; for what can give me more pleasure? |
| 11448 | If such improvements gave him pleasure, why should he have chosen to be without them so long?" |
| 11448 | Is idleness the divinest life? |
| 11448 | Is it an unmixed evil? |
| 11448 | Is life to any of us such unmixed pleasure even while it lasts? |
| 11448 | It is an important question, how, and when, and to whom, we should give? |
| 11448 | It professed to answer, so far as it might be answered Pilate''s question,"What is truth?" |
| 11448 | May we not argue still more strongly in the case of the gods? |
| 11448 | The fifth and last book discusses the great question, Is virtue of itself sufficient to make life happy? |
| 11448 | The very first words I said to him were,''How did you get on with our friend Paetus?'' |
| 11448 | Then comes the question, What_ is_ this nature that is so precious to each of us? |
| 11448 | Then he proceeds:"Would you like us, then, to examine into your course of life from boyhood? |
| 11448 | Then, rising to enthusiasm, the philosopher concludes:"Who can not but admire the incredible beauty of such a system of morality? |
| 11448 | Was death an evil? |
| 11448 | Was the soul immortal? |
| 11448 | Was virtue any guarantee for happiness? |
| 11448 | What character in history or in fiction can be grander or more consistent than the''wise man''of the Stoics? |
| 11448 | What else can be this power which enables us to recollect the past, to foresee the future, to understand the present? |
| 11448 | What is a duty? |
| 11448 | What is expediency? |
| 11448 | What need to dwell upon the charm of the green fields, the well- ordered plantations, the beauty of the vineyards and olive- groves? |
| 11448 | What pleasure ever had I without you, or you without me?" |
| 11448 | What reverence, what love, or what fear can men have of beings who neither wish them, nor can work them, good or ill? |
| 11448 | What shall I say of the fact that fire, and red- hot plates, and other tortures were applied? |
| 11448 | What, after all, are a man''s real interests? |
| 11448 | When the man asked--''Whether anybody wanted to know anything?'' |
| 11448 | Which of us can tell whether he be taken away from good or from evil? |
| 11448 | Who at one time was a greater favourite with our most illustrious men? |
| 11448 | Who could be more greedy of money than he was? |
| 11448 | Who could lavish it more profusely? |
| 11448 | Who was a closer intimate with our very basest? |
| 11448 | Who would have asked your help, we should answer, if these difficulties had not arisen? |
| 11448 | Why feed your misfortune by dwelling on it? |
| 11448 | Why grieve at all? |
| 11448 | Why need I speak of my arrival at each place? |
| 11448 | Why then call it wretched, even if we die before our natural time? |
| 11448 | Why uphold a theory so dangerous in practice? |
| 11448 | Why, exclaims the Stoic, introduce Pleasure to the councils of Virtue? |
| 11448 | Why, then, did the Deity, when he made everything for the sake of man, make such a variety( for instance) of venomous reptiles? |
| 11448 | With what powers of voice, with what force of language, with what sufficient indignation of soul, can I tell the tale? |
| 11448 | do n''t you know that he was Quaestor at_ Syracuse_?'' |
| 11448 | how the people crowded the streets in the towns; how they flocked in from the country-- fathers of families with wives and children? |

| 11448 | yes, to be sure'', said he;''Africa, I believe?'' |

| 29658 | And who was he that opened that door in heaven? |
| 29658 | Can blaze be done in cochineal, Or noon in mazarin? |
| 29658 | Have you forgotten that he calls you Michael, less man than angel, and divine? 29658 I ask myself, Is this a dream? |
| 29658 | In my art what do I find? |
| 29658 | Is there never a retroscope mirror, In the realms and corners of space, That can give us a glimpse of the battle, And the soldiers face to face? |
| 29658 | Is there now any one that knows What a world of mystery lies deep down in the heart of a rose? |
| 29658 | Of me? |
| 29658 | Where are now the freighted barks From the marts of east and west? 29658 Who was he that gave that fresh life and thought? |

| 29658 | Can it be that art is no longer of national importance? |
| 29658 | Can it only be relegated to a class, an order, of its own, and considered as being-- Vedderesque? |
| 29658 | Can one ever lose out of memory the indescribable charm of this leisurely sauntering, in social enjoyment, in the wonderful interior of St. Peter''s? |

| 29658 | Has it any existence save on the artist''s canvas, in the poet''s vision? |
| 29658 | Has it trade, commerce, traffic? |
| 29658 | Has it, in the present state of human progress, any place which will justify devotion to it?" |
| 29658 | Has the lovely town anything beside sunsets and stars and poets''dreams? |

| 29658 | Is there a land of such supreme And perfect beauty, anywhere?" |
| 29658 | Is there in the air a faint, lingering echo of the_ chant d''amour_ of sirens on the rocky shores? |
| 29658 | Is this not too narrow and sweeping a judgment? |
| 29658 | Mr. Hillard adds:--"But who that can appreciate the sublime in art will fail to bow down before it as embodied in this wonderful statue? |
| 29658 | Mr. Stillman, discussing the revival of art, has questioned:"Does the world want art any longer? |
| 29658 | One should have a thousand points of steel with which to write, and what can a single pen do? |
| 29658 | Se''l poco accresce,''l mio superchio lima Vostra pietà; qual penitenzia aspetta Mio fiero ardor, se mi gastiga e insegna?" |
| 29658 | Shall he degrade life by calling these the realities? |
| 29658 | Shall such an artist degrade his power by portraying ugliness-- the mere defects of negations and distortions? |
| 29658 | So the past links itself again with the present; and who can tell where any story in life begins or ends in the constant evolutionary progress? |

| 29658 | Why should it not have been the clairvoyance of supernatural ecstasy opening the world of spirits? |
| 29658 | Why should that be a projection of a morbid and devout imagination? |
| 29658 | Will it all vanish into air? |

| 16504 | As he afterwards confessed, he ran the greatest risks in this adventure; but who, he said, could take up arms against a lover? |
| 16504 | But how did she deal with that rank growth of licentious literature which had sprung up during the Renaissance period? |
| 16504 | But how should the unfortunate Francesco be entrapped? |
| 16504 | But how, it may be asked, was it possible to expand the story of Venus and Adonis into an epic of 45,000 lines? |
| 16504 | But what can we do now that she has taken the veil?'' |
| 16504 | But why repaint the picture of Italian decadence, or dwell again upon the fever of that phthisical consumption? |
| 16504 | But why should any one desire to have such verses buried in his grave? |
| 16504 | Can we say the same for Hegel''s system, or for Schopenhauers or for the encyclopaedic ingenuity of Herbert Spencer? |
| 16504 | Come tormento fia, se da diletto? |
| 16504 | Did Tasso mean that the contrast between past and present was too bitter? |
| 16504 | Did he not maintain a theory of the universe which even that perilous speculator and political schemer, Francis Bacon, sneered at as nugatory? |
| 16504 | Did then her resuscitated Catholicism succeed in permeating the Italians with the spirit of Christ and of the Gospel? |
| 16504 | E forse ardore? |
| 16504 | Had not Violante resisted the seductions of all Rome, and repelled the advances even of the Duke of Guise? |
| 16504 | Had not a Duchess of Amalfi been murdered for contracting a marriage with a gentleman of her household? |
| 16504 | Had not a Venetian noble pledged his word for the former? |

| 16504 | Was it strange that, after long distracting aimless wars, they should hail peace at any price? |
| 16504 | Was not the latter a privilege which S. Mark extended to all suppliants? |
| 16504 | Was she an accomplice in the tragedy? |

| 16504 | what are we about then?" |
| 11607 | Are you not ashamed, Cicero,said this person,"to be weeping and behaving like a woman? |
| 11607 | Else for what reason did the people despatch you to this point, for what reason did they send me immediately after my consulship? 11607 Why should one name individually Sardinia, Sicily, Macedonia, Illyricum, Greece, Ionic Asia, the Bithynians, Spaniards, Africans? |
| 11607 | 65(_ a.u._ 689)][-8-]...[ not(?)] |
| 11607 | And what are they? |
| 11607 | And why must one mention the remaining cases? |
| 11607 | And yet what did I do that was unfair or unfitting or arrogant in summoning him as a friend and ally? |
| 11607 | But since you have all the necessaries in full measure, why do you harass yourself because you do not possess more? |
| 11607 | But why do I enumerate these details, when in one phrase you called him father of his country,--not to mention the rest of his titles? |
| 11607 | Did we have peace after this? |
| 11607 | Do n''t you see that the day over which you were all of a tremble is here and I am alive?" |
| 11607 | For how could he have won that victory so easily without employing a great store of insight and great force? |
| 11607 | For how on about the same days could he fight in Italy and in Cilicia, Egypt and Syria, Greece and Spain, in the Ionian Sea and the islands? |
| 11607 | For when the master of the horse never laid aside his sword even at the festivals, who would not have been suspicious of the dictator himself? |
| 11607 | How could I? |
| 11607 | How could you logically desire to be honored, if these men do not endure their just punishment? |
| 11607 | How many Curtii, how many Decii, Fabii, Gracchi, Marcelli, Scipiones have been killed? |
| 11607 | In brief, he was so confident that to the soothsayer who had warned him to beware of that day he said jokingly:"Where are your prophecies? |
| 11607 | In times past some have made a declaration like this, that to Brutus who struck him severely he said:"Thou, too, my child?" |
| 11607 | Is it not inconceivable that when we have arrived to aid our country we should force her to require other allies against us? |
| 11607 | Is it not inevitable that he did this from one of two reasons, either that he suspected he should suffer some harm or that he felt contempt for me? |
| 11607 | Now how could he better be proven to be hostile, yes, most hostile toward us than from what he has done? |
| 11607 | Said the other:"And does this grieve you? |
| 11607 | That some one of you will kill me? |
| 11607 | Then is it not remarkable if we who are here for vengeance upon the evildoers should show ourselves no less greedy of gain than they? |

| 11607 | To what end do you elect the annual officials, if you are going to make no use of them for such businesses? |
| 11607 | Well, after Pompey''s death and that great destruction of the citizens, did any quiet appear? |
| 11607 | What insolence and wantonness rather, has he omitted in refusing to come? |
| 11607 | What is there you could assert is doing right, if these men are doing no wrong? |
| 11607 | What need is there of listing the rest who sent auxiliaries, to all of whom he granted pardon and merely exacted money from them? |
| 11607 | What prevents such a course?'' |
| 11607 | What should I fear or dread? |
| 11607 | What then? |
| 11607 | When Heaven had most justly decided the issue of the battle, what man of those then captured for the first time did he put to death? |
| 11607 | Whence could it? |
| 11607 | Where, Caesar, was your humaneness, where your inviolability, where the laws? |
| 11607 | Who ought to err less than he who is the strongest? |
| 11607 | Who ought to handle present blessings more uprightly than he who has the most of them and is most afraid of their being lost? |
| 11607 | Who should use the gifts of Heaven more sensibly than he who has received the greatest from that source? |
| 11607 | Who would choose to be his ally and fight against us before receiving any injury at our hands? |
| 11607 | Who would not be indignant at hearing that we had the name of Romans, but did deeds of the Celtae? |
| 11607 | Who would not lament the sight of Italy ravaged like Britain? |
| 11607 | Whom, rather, did he not honor, not alone senators or knights or citizens in general, but also allies and subjects? |
| 11607 | Why need I waste time by repeating to you, who know them equally well, the names of Valerius, Horatius, Saturninus, Glaucia, the Gracchi? |
| 11607 | Why? |
| 11607 | Will you give up, then, for these reasons the campaign, O what can I call you? |
| 11607 | Will you not confide this campaign to the man, now become a member of the senate, to whom while still a knight you committed those wars? |
| 11607 | Will you not send out against the pirates one, now an ex- consul, whom before he could yet properly hold office you elected against Sertorius? |
| 11607 | Will you reject, now that he has reached man''s estate, him whom while iuvenis you chose to lead? |
| 11607 | Yet why did I say this? |
| 11607 | [-19-] He had instructed his clique that whenever he should ask them in the assemblies:"Who was it that did or said so- and- so?" |

| 14276 | Am I the only passenger? |
| 14276 | And you, sir,said the lady, turning to a handsome young fellow in civil dress, near her,"how did you pass this horrible night?" |
| 14276 | But at least these prisons are on the site of Ecelino''s castle? |
| 14276 | But first,said the signor who had selected him,"how much is your brougham an hour?" |
| 14276 | But how does any one ever see them? |
| 14276 | But the custodian-- how could he lie so? |
| 14276 | But were not the Romans also Italians, Signore? |
| 14276 | Did you ever,said the cicerone after we had left the building,"hear such music as that?" |
| 14276 | I suppose you gentlemen are all Piedmontese? |
| 14276 | Indeed,I heard an Italian lady once remark,"why should men pretend to deny us the privilege of smoking? |
| 14276 | Is there nothing else? |
| 14276 | Oh, have you ever been at Genoa? |
| 14276 | This house, with a shop on either side, whose is it, XXVI.? |
| 14276 | Was this skeleton found here? |
| 14276 | What_ caparra_? |
| 14276 | Who was he? |

| 14276 | --"Beefsteak of beef, or beefsteak of mutton?" |
| 14276 | And now, once, would we go by diligence? |
| 14276 | And the_ genius loci_--where is that? |
| 14276 | And what did you see at Arquà? |
| 14276 | Bie estater? |
| 14276 | Bie gehts? |
| 14276 | But indeed, if the reader dealt candidly with himself, how much could he profess to know of Mantuan history? |
| 14276 | But of the Gonzagas of Mantua, and their duchy, what do you know, gentle reader? |
| 14276 | Could I not take warning from another, and refrain from this fruitless effort of description? |
| 14276 | Did Petrarch use to sit and meditate in this garden? |
| 14276 | Did we think Signor Leencolen would be reëlected? |
| 14276 | Do I happen to know, he asks, any American family going to Rome and desiring a cameriere? |
| 14276 | Do not now weak voices twitter from a hundred books, in unconscious imitation of the hour''s great singers? |
| 14276 | How did the painter make them? |
| 14276 | How do you do? |
| 14276 | How goes it? |
| 14276 | I think there must be some good- looking youngster who pleases you-- no? |
| 14276 | I wonder did Petrarch walk often down this road from his house just above? |
| 14276 | I wonder how he should have known us for Americans? |
| 14276 | It said as plainly as real estate could express the national sentiment,"Come si fa? |
| 14276 | No? |
| 14276 | Now at least they are taught a reasonable and logical morality-- and who can tell what wonders the novel instruction may not work? |
| 14276 | Ohio hills? |
| 14276 | So I asked the lout, who stood gnawing a stick and shifting his weight from one foot to the other,--"When did Petrarch live here?" |
| 14276 | The Capo- Stazione, with an air of one who would not presume to fathom the designs of Providence, responded:"Who knows? |
| 14276 | The cicerone was not to be silenced even with such a tribute, and he went on:"Perhaps, as you are Americans, you know Moshu Feelmore, the President? |
| 14276 | The long street of tombs outside the walls? |
| 14276 | The well- dressed man lifted his forefinger and waved it back and forth before his face:--_ The Well- dressed Man_.--Dunque, non si parte più? |
| 14276 | Then, with a scornful glance at us,"Your driver tells me you have been at Arquà? |
| 14276 | There was also a Museum at Grossetto, and I wonder what was in it? |
| 14276 | They sit upon the ground before their great panniers, and knit and doze, and wake up with a drowsy"_ Comandala_?" |
| 14276 | Though, indeed, what is Rome, after all, when you come to it? |
| 14276 | Was its founder Augustus, or Vitellus, or Antoninus, or Maximian, or the Republic of Verona? |
| 14276 | We were talking of the American war, and when the captain had asked the usual question,"_ Quando finirà mai questa guerra_?" |
| 14276 | What are you good for if you ca n''t take a foreigner to his consul''s?" |
| 14276 | What is it comes to me at this distance of that which I saw in Pompeii? |
| 14276 | What is there left in Pompeii to speak of after this? |
| 14276 | Where now is that old man? |
| 14276 | Who are G. Bradshaw, Duke of New York, and Signori Jones and Andrews, Hereditary Princes of the United States? |
| 14276 | Why not, now he was here? |
| 14276 | Wie geht''s? |
| 14276 | Wie steht''s? |
| 14276 | Would Eccellenza descend, look at the water in front, and decide whether to go on? |
| 14276 | Would you like his autograph? |
| 14276 | Yet how was Ventisei to know our names? |
| 14276 | You were not sick?" |
| 14276 | _ I_.--And how old are you, Caterina? |
| 14276 | _ I_.--And you are betrothed? |

| 45469 | :"Who could imagine that those men"( the Florentines)"should presume to be sons of the Church, while fighting against her?" |
| 45469 | Also, were not Rome and Italy one and the same thing? |
| 45469 | Art ignorant mayhap where the rank fox lurketh in hiding? |
| 45469 | Art not, then, the man expected by us all? |
| 45469 | At thirty- one the share[ of one hundred]? |
| 45469 | Besides, what was it that really led to the birth of the Florentine Commune? |
| 45469 | But how was success to be assured? |
| 45469 | But what can be done while we lack so many of the elements most needed for the completion of this task? |
| 45469 | But what gave birth to the Commune? |
| 45469 | But what had become of the Guelph Federation, and of the name of Italy invoked to call it into being? |
| 45469 | But what was the real nature and origin of this new magistracy? |
| 45469 | But what were these statutes for the good of the trade of which so many magistrates enforced the observance? |
| 45469 | Can any historical information be derived from it, either directly or indirectly? |
| 45469 | Can we be surprised at the hatred roused by the Uberti, or at the civil war of which they were the cause? |
| 45469 | Can we possibly suppose that such results could be achieved without a long, preliminary course of preparation? |
| 45469 | Did not the Roman Commune arise at the same period? |
| 45469 | Did not the_ scholae_, progenitors of the guilds, survive during the Lower Empire and throughout the Middle Ages? |
| 45469 | Do not emperors and kings of the Romans yield submission to us, yet are they not superior to Florence? |
| 45469 | Do ye dare, ye alone, to cast off the yoke of freedom and seek for new kingdoms, even as though_ alia sit florentina civitas, alia sit romana_? |
| 45469 | During the vacancy of the Imperial throne, did not the Holy See appoint King Charles of Anjou Vicar- general of Tuscany? |
| 45469 | For even when the Consuls are seen in the exercise of their functions, what are they, what do they do, according to chronicles and documents? |
| 45469 | How are we to explain this congeries of different laws? |
| 45469 | How could a tribe incapable of comprehending Roman life persecute it to extinction on all sides? |
| 45469 | How could they be destroyed by barbarians ignorant of crafts which were nevertheless indispensable to their own needs? |
| 45469 | How is it possible, therefore, to give any idea of the political form of a municipality fashioned in such wise? |
| 45469 | How, indeed, could war be avoided, when the commercial power of Florence felt the increasingly imperative need of free access to the coast? |
| 45469 | If Latin civilisation had been utterly destroyed, how came it that the dead could rise again to combat the living? |
| 45469 | If so, what is it? |
| 45469 | In fact, how could it possibly be that so much good sense should breed so much disorder? |
| 45469 | In fact, what other city can boast annals penned by such men as Villani, Compagni, Machiavelli, Guicciardini, Nardi, Varchi? |
| 45469 | In short, what substantial information can be gleaned from the"Chronica de origine civitatis"? |
| 45469 | Is it not better to describe events as they occurred, rejecting all foregone conclusions? |
| 45469 | Is there any new and original principle that assimilates the heterogeneous elements and constitutes a new law? |
| 45469 | It is related that on nearing the scaffold Neracozzo said to Azzolino:"Whither are we going?" |
| 45469 | It may be asked how the consuls were enabled to give effect to their verdicts? |
| 45469 | Know ye not that true liberty consisteth in voluntary obedience to Divine and human laws? |
| 45469 | Knowest thou not that Florence is its name? |

| 45469 | Meanwhile, which party conquered in the struggle following Matilda''s death? |

| 45469 | Says the notary,''What are these_ lattizzi_?'' |
| 45469 | The notary passes on to another woman wearing ermine fur, saying to himself,''What excuse can she allege for that? |
| 45469 | This time next year I''ll sell to you, or you to me, at what price shall we say?'' |
| 45469 | Thus we are often moved to inquire, How can this be the work of far- seeing diplomats, of great politicians? |
| 45469 | Until fresh documents are found, what reasons can be alleged to justify us in denying it at this distant date? |
| 45469 | Was he in the right or the wrong? |
| 45469 | Was he not recognised as such by themselves? |
| 45469 | Was it not sometimes successful in repulsing the foe? |
| 45469 | Was not Henry the master of the world? |
| 45469 | Was not this belief justified by the fate of Milan, Cremona, and Brescia? |
| 45469 | What amount of accurate knowledge can be derived from all this? |
| 45469 | What could be said to the Pope? |
| 45469 | What could have caused an act rendering war unavoidable, after such strenuous efforts to establish peace? |
| 45469 | What germs of truth can be gleaned from all this? |
| 45469 | What may it profit thee to subdue Cremona? |
| 45469 | What was the nature of this change? |
| 45469 | What was the position attained by the seven greater guilds at the moment we are now studying? |
| 45469 | What, then, are these enactments? |
| 45469 | What, then, were these Enactments of Justice, as originally framed, and what is to be learnt from them? |
| 45469 | Why should not Boniface be able to clench a similar bargain on even more effective and permanent terms? |
| 45469 | Why should the Pope desire the election of an emperor save for the purpose of weakening the Angevin power? |
| 45469 | Why so much vagueness in indicating the chief magistrate of the Republic? |
| 45469 | Why tarriest thou? |
| 45469 | Why this alliance against the Empire at the moment when it was no longer a source of alarm? |
| 45469 | [ 202] What was the pressing danger? |
| 45469 | [ 46] How is the reader to disentangle this skein? |
| 45469 | [ 90] In fact, what names do we find among them in Florence? |
| 45469 | do we not find them dividing all society, including both the soldiery and foreigners in Rome and in Ravenna? |

| 39100 | Who wanted him? |
| 39100 | Why not? |
| 39100 | A city on the coast may last without a harbour which has once brought it consequence; but would it have grown without one to a place of power? |

| 39100 | And who shall say their tradition is not true? |
| 39100 | Are we not growing a little tired of churches? |
| 39100 | But how? |

| 10828 | What, pray, is there at home, whence you can recruit them? |
| 10828 | When Rome came within view, did not the thought enter your mind-- within those walls are my house and household gods, my mother, wife, and children? |

| 10828 | When the enemy is over our heads, is it your pleasure that we should give up our arms, and laws be proposed?" |
| 10828 | Whom, I pray, did these most dastardly enemies despise? |
| 10828 | Why did they not meet them in the field, and intrust to fortune the decision of the matter once and for all? |
| 10828 | Why do I, like a captive sent under the yoke, as if I had been ransomed from robbers, behold plebeian magistrates, and Sicinius invested with power? |

| 41207 | The men whom he had sent to a patriot''s death, had they died in vain? |
| 41207 | They gave no answer to the question, For what are men to use their liberty? |
| 41207 | Was compromise with Piedmont impossible? |
| 41207 | Was it all a frightful error, an empty dream born of ambition and pride of intellect? |
| 41207 | Was it for some grandiose, impossible chimera, that he had taken men from quiet useful lives and the simple round of kindliness? |
| 41207 | What are free opportunities of education for him who has no time for study?" |
| 41207 | What are you doing at Pinner? |
| 41207 | What authority had he still to preach a creed, which meant the sacrifice of thousands more, the unhappiness of many another mother? |
| 41207 | What do you anticipate for England''s politics? |
| 41207 | What do you read? |
| 41207 | What does Peter say? |

| 41207 | What good were rights to men, who were too poor or ignorant to use them? |
| 41207 | What if he dreamed dreams, that for generations yet may be no more than dreams? |
| 41207 | What if he marred his work by mistakes and miscalculations? |
| 41207 | What if his mental ken reached not to all the knowledge of the age? |
| 41207 | What little dogs have you caused to disappear? |
| 41207 | What on earth has he at his age to think about? |
| 41207 | What on earth,"asked the offended officer,"has he at his age to think about? |
| 41207 | What then is the body of doctrine for the Church of the future, as Mazzini conceived it? |
| 41207 | What, then, are the inherent, essential marks of nationality? |
| 41207 | When he asked the Piedmontese government,"Are you with Austria or against her?" |
| 41207 | Where is then a possible foundation for your essays and sketches? |
| 41207 | Who am I, whom he praises?" |
| 41207 | Who shall say, who does best service for humanity, he who seeks the small attainable, or he who''heaven''s success finds or earth''s failure?'' |
| 41207 | Why is Nature beautiful? |
| 41207 | Why should he consent? |
| 41207 | Why should men die for their fellows, why suffer prison, exile, poverty, if happiness be the end of life? |
| 41207 | Why should not Mazzini abandon his impossible dream of the republic, and work together for the bigger end with a man as democratic as himself? |
| 41207 | Why should they toil on, knowing they would not see their labour''s fruits, to make life better for a future generation? |
| 41207 | Will you call him bad? |
| 41207 | Will you love me less, when you can only love me by working? |
| 41207 | Would he, had he had the opportunity, have done what he held higher than to teach through books, and been the missionary of a religion? |
| 41207 | Would his mission have found an answer or ended in pitiable collapse? |

| 14972 | And what is music but emotion, in its most genuine essence, expressed by sound? |
| 14972 | Are not all things, even profanity, permissible in dreams? |
| 14972 | Between that quiet canvas of the''Presentation,''so modest in its cool greys and subdued gold, and the tumult of flying, running? |
| 14972 | But having once stood there, how can we forget the station? |
| 14972 | But how to get at the window, which is pretty high above the ground, and out of reach of the most ardent revellers? |
| 14972 | But unless he had seen it with his eyes, what poet would have ventured to devise the thing and display it even in the dumb show of a tragedy? |
| 14972 | But who are the several heroes of the Æginetan pediment, and what was the subject of the Pheidian statues on the Parthenon? |
| 14972 | But who can resist the influence of Greek ideas at the Cap S. Martin? |
| 14972 | But, since it was a dream and nothing more, why should I repeat it? |
| 14972 | Did he hope that the exiles would return to Florence, and that he would enjoy an honourable life, an immortality of glorious renown? |
| 14972 | Did he imitate the Roman Brutus in the noble spirit of his predecessors, Olgiati and Boscoli, martyrs to the creed of tyrannicide? |
| 14972 | Did the murderers find it blurred in its fine lineaments, furrowed with lines of care, hollowed with the soul''s hunger? |

| 14972 | Do you not hear the women cry? |

| 14972 | Have we not all seen the anguish of thought- fretted faces smoothed out by the hands of the Deliverer? |
| 14972 | He met an old woman herb- gathering at daybreak, and said,''Mother, hast thou seen a crow or other bird?'' |
| 14972 | How are we to square this testimony with the witness of the bronze before us? |
| 14972 | How can we answer these questions except by supposing that music was for him the utterance through art of some emotion? |
| 14972 | How can we fail, amid the tumult of our common cares, to feel at times the hush of that far- off tranquillity? |
| 14972 | How can you be certain that the part itself did not stimulate his musical faculty to fresh and still more appropriate creativeness? |
| 14972 | How can you prove he did not feel a natural appropriateness in the_ motifs_ he selected from his memory for Cherubino? |
| 14972 | How can you prove to me that the melodies he gave to Cherubino had not been evolved from situations similar to those in which Cherubino finds himself? |
| 14972 | How shall we describe their potency? |
| 14972 | How should the legend be interpreted? |
| 14972 | I continued,''is the drama but emotion presented in its most external forms as action? |
| 14972 | I wondered whether they were tingling still with the heart- throbs and with the pressure of those many arms? |
| 14972 | If Luini had felt passion, who shall say? |
| 14972 | If the gods that men have made and ignorantly worshipped be really but glorified copies of their own souls, where is the sun in this parallel? |
| 14972 | Is not, indeed, our whole life of this nature? |
| 14972 | Is there truth, then, in the dim tradition that this mountain land was colonised by Etruscans? |
| 14972 | Is, then, the anthropomorphic God as momentary and as accidental in the system of the world as that vapoury spectre? |
| 14972 | Is_ Ras_ the root of Rhætia? |
| 14972 | Meanwhile, what had become of young Goldoni? |
| 14972 | My literary taste was tickled by the praise bestowed in the Augustan age on Rhætic grapes by Virgil: Et quo te carmine dicam, Rhætica? |
| 14972 | Now, really, were we amusing ourselves? |
| 14972 | Of one of these he asked,''Whose is yonder funeral procession returning from San Pietro?'' |
| 14972 | Perchè non vieni ancora?_ pleads Leporello; the chorus shouts:_ Perchè? |
| 14972 | Perchè non vieni ancora?_ pleads Leporello; the chorus shouts:_ Perchè? |

| 14972 | She is quite alone; but are not her father and mother in bed above, and within earshot? |
| 14972 | So they mounted to the bedroom, and Lorenzino, knowing where the Duke was laid, cried:''Sir, are you asleep?'' |
| 14972 | THE CASTELLO OF FERRARA Is it possible that the patron saints of cities should mould the temper of the people to their own likeness? |
| 14972 | The women fluttered about us and kept asking whether we really liked it all? |
| 14972 | The young poet felt at home; how could a comic poet feel otherwise? |
| 14972 | Then, with a sudden and vehement transition to the pathos of her own sorrow, she exclaims:--''Halla mai bista nissunu Tumbà l''omi pe li canti?'' |
| 14972 | Thereupon she began to scold her charge, and say,''Is this a fair and comely thing, to stand all day at balconies and throw flowers at passers- by? |
| 14972 | These were of unquestionable value; for has not Cicognara engraved them on a page of his classic monograph? |
| 14972 | To reach such a garden and such sunlight who would not mount six stories and thread a labyrinth of passages? |
| 14972 | VII.--LORENZINO BRUTUS It remains to ask ourselves, What opinion can be justly formed of Lorenzino''s character and motives? |
| 14972 | Was it for this that we had left our English home, and travelled from London day and night? |
| 14972 | Was the winged and sworded genius upon the Ephesus column meant for a genius of Death or a genius of Love? |
| 14972 | We are forced to go farther back, and ask ourselves, What suggested it in the first place to the composer? |
| 14972 | What changed the face, so beautiful and terrible in youth, to ugliness that shrank from sight in manhood? |
| 14972 | What does a man want more? |
| 14972 | What does it communicate to you?'' |
| 14972 | What does the lamb mean? |
| 14972 | What has Love to do With prudence? |
| 14972 | What pass or cranny in that precipice is cloven for its escape? |
| 14972 | What were the God who sat outside to scan The spheres that''neath His finger circling ran? |
| 14972 | What will Cherubino be after three years? |
| 14972 | What would he find distinctive of their spirit? |
| 14972 | What, after all, is the love of the Alps, and when and where did it begin? |
| 14972 | What, again, was the temporal power of the Papacy but a sword embedded in a cross? |
| 14972 | What, we think, as we gaze upward, would the Master have given for such a craftsman? |
| 14972 | When I show thy shirt, who will vow to let his beard grow till the murderer is slain? |
| 14972 | When he murdered his cousin, was he really actuated by the patriotic desire to rid his country of a monster? |
| 14972 | Whence can it issue? |
| 14972 | Where then can a more complete artistic harmony be found than in the opera?'' |
| 14972 | Who is there left to do it? |
| 14972 | Who knows what cry of the Convention made the painter fling his palette down and leave the masterpiece he might have spoiled? |
| 14972 | Who shall translate those curiously perfect words to which tone and rhythm have been indissolubly wedded? |
| 14972 | Who was he? |
| 14972 | Who will undertake thy vengeance? |
| 14972 | Why did the Lord so much desire you? |
| 14972 | Why does the torrent shout, the avalanche reply in thunder to the music of the sun, the trees and rocks and meadows cry their''Holy, Holy, Holy''? |
| 14972 | Why linger pondering in the porch? |
| 14972 | Why rose the Camaldolis and Chartreuses over Europe? |
| 14972 | Why, morning after morning, does the red dawn flush the pinnacles of Monte Rosa above cloud and mist unheeded? |
| 14972 | Why, then, is this? |
| 14972 | Why, then, should monks, so persuaded of the riddle of the earth, have placed themselves in scenes so beautiful? |
| 14972 | Without some other power than the mind of man, could men have fashioned for themselves those ideals that they named their gods? |
| 14972 | Would he like the voyage? |
| 14972 | _ Auf den Alpen droben ist ein herrliches Leben!_ Did the echoes of Gian Galeazzo''s convent ever wake to such a tune as this before? |
| 14972 | a disillusioned rake, a sentimentalist, an effete fop, a romantic lover? |
| 14972 | art thou sleeping? |
| 14972 | whether it was true we danced? |
| 14972 | whether we should come to the_ pranzo_? |
| 14972 | who will console me for your loss? |
| 14972 | why did he use it precisely in connection with this dramatic situation? |
| 14078 | ''Are we come to that?'' |
| 14078 | ''By- the- bye, what_ is_ this same constitution they are making such a noise about?'' |
| 14078 | ''Do you think it nothing?'' |
| 14078 | ''How could I have insisted upon sending Mazzini into exile when he has done so much for Italian unity?'' |
| 14078 | ''Is that all?'' |
| 14078 | ''Is that clear?'' |
| 14078 | ''It was the duty of us all to go,''Garibaldi said quickly,''else how could there have been one Italy?'' |
| 14078 | ''Never,''he said,''would he advise a_ coup d''état,_ nor would his master resort to one; but if the King abdicated, what then?'' |
| 14078 | ''Quali porte se gli serrerebbono? |
| 14078 | ''Shall_ we_ learn liberty of the Gauls,_ we_ who taught every lofty thing to others?'' |
| 14078 | ''Well, but it must be sent back immediately-- where is it?'' |
| 14078 | ''What on earth is the good of all this?'' |
| 14078 | ''What statesman,''wrote the Prince Consort in June 1859,''could adopt measures to force Austrian rule again upon delighted, free Italy?'' |
| 14078 | ''Why then,''persisted Vecchj, half in jest,''did you go to Marsala?'' |
| 14078 | A chance shot fired by some Royalist fanatic, and who could measure the result? |
| 14078 | Above all, what was the real truth about the Prince of Carignano? |
| 14078 | After all, where would the Princess find a more promising match? |
| 14078 | An unwelcome necessity, but whose was the fault? |
| 14078 | As Enrico Cairoli lay dying, the French Zouaves( was this the chivalry of France?) |
| 14078 | As he left the fortress- prison he wrote the words:''Farewell, Rome; farewell, Capitol; who knows who will think of thee, and when?'' |
| 14078 | Besides, if a miracle was sought, why should not a miracle happen? |
| 14078 | Bright careers, full of promise, cut short; lives renounced, not only voluntarily, but with joy, and to what end? |
| 14078 | But if Italy was to remain divided and enslaved, then, indeed, the indignant question went up to heaven, To what end had so much blood been shed? |
| 14078 | By Cavour? |
| 14078 | By''English bank- notes,''that useful factor in European politics that has every pleasing quality except reality? |
| 14078 | Could anything be imagined more aggravating? |
| 14078 | Could the Emperor, after such boasting, coolly throw the Pope overboard the first time it suited his convenience? |
| 14078 | Did Perrone not know of the defeat of yesterday? |
| 14078 | Did anyone beside the King believe that this army, which had lost faith in its cause, in its leaders and in itself, was going to beat Radetsky? |
| 14078 | Did anyone suppose that the Savoy princes were commonly saints? |
| 14078 | Exactly the same end as Arnold of Brescia and Cola di Rienzi-- who better could have described the scheme of Italian redemption? |
| 14078 | Finally, the Syndic of Salerno was asked if he had seen anything of the Garibaldian expeditions by sea? |
| 14078 | Had it never struck him that she was created for a glorious destiny? |
| 14078 | Had that scene vanished from his recollection in June 1870? |
| 14078 | Had they been happy? |
| 14078 | His friends answered:''What of Charles Albert, of 1821, of 1832?'' |
| 14078 | How then, with much superior numbers and a seemingly impregnable position, did they end in ignominious flight? |
| 14078 | If not, why should they do so in Piedmont? |
| 14078 | If this was true in June was it less true in November? |
| 14078 | In August 1865 Count Bismarck asked General La Marmora whether Italy would join Prussia in the contingency of a war with Austria? |
| 14078 | In Italy who has it, or, to speak more precisely, who has a little of it? |
| 14078 | In the evening he said to his generals:''We have still 40,000 men, can not we fall back on Alessandria and still make an honourable stand?'' |
| 14078 | It was the casting interposition of chance, or, shall it be said, of Providence? |
| 14078 | Persano asked Cavour what he was to do if by stress of storms Garibaldi were forced to come into port? |
| 14078 | Popes had dictated to sovereigns before now; was there not Canossa? |
| 14078 | Quale Italiano gli negherebbe l''ossequio?'' |
| 14078 | Quale invidia se gli opporrebbe? |
| 14078 | Quali popoli gli negherebbono la obbedienza? |
| 14078 | Such a fear existed at the time, and Rattazzi''s timid policy was the result; it is impossible not to ask now whether it was not exaggerated? |
| 14078 | The King is betrayed; at Turin they have proclaimed the republic''? |
| 14078 | The Triumvir awoke, sat up and asked if he had come to assassinate him? |
| 14078 | The question arose, What sort of pressure would be needed to turn that germ to account for Italy? |
| 14078 | The question is, Whether the political brigandage in South Italy had any real affinity with the wars of the Klephts, or even of the Carlists? |
| 14078 | The same words were on the lips of all: What would Italy do without him? |
| 14078 | The step was ill advised; what can documents tell us on the subject that we do not know? |
| 14078 | Their argument was not without force, risk or no risk, when would there be another opportunity as good as the present? |
| 14078 | There were, indeed, some who asked what was all this to them? |
| 14078 | Therefore you must use force; and where is it to be had? |
| 14078 | They came, and how many did not return? |
| 14078 | Was it easy to provide husbands for princesses? |
| 14078 | Was it ignorance or bad faith? |
| 14078 | Was it to be believed, therefore, that this mountain warfare, however long drawn out, could alter one iota the course of events? |
| 14078 | Well may a French writer inquire:''Was it insanity or treachery?'' |
| 14078 | Were not they generally extremely unhappy in marriage? |
| 14078 | What Italian would not do him honour? |
| 14078 | What did they behold? |
| 14078 | What doors would be closed against him? |
| 14078 | What further evidence was needed of the impossibility of an indefinite duration of this state within a state? |
| 14078 | What if eight years''labour were thrown away, and the movement of the State turned backward? |
| 14078 | What is it that you wish and I with you? |
| 14078 | What jealousy would oppose him? |
| 14078 | What people would deny him obedience? |
| 14078 | What soothsayer foretold Sédan? |
| 14078 | What was the cause of the slaughter of the Aigues Mortes? |
| 14078 | What was to be done? |
| 14078 | What were Savoy and Nice? |
| 14078 | What were the causes which led Garibaldi into the desperate venture that ended at Aspromonte? |
| 14078 | What were the''extraneous Austrian Emperor,''or the''old chimera of a Pope''( Carlyle''s designations) to the British taxpayer? |
| 14078 | What will Anarchy gain by the murder of Carnot? |
| 14078 | What would be their next act? |
| 14078 | Who could be a better guardian of our liberty? |
| 14078 | Who knows what might not have been the effect of the presence of their young Sovereign on the broken_ moral_ of the Neapolitan soldiers? |
| 14078 | Who more worthy of the faith of the nation? |
| 14078 | Who raised it first? |
| 14078 | Who was to feed and guard them? |
| 14078 | Why not, except that the world is not what it ought to be? |
| 14078 | With the bogey of Prussia vanquished before his eyes, he doubtless asked what the Italians would do at Vienna if they got there? |
| 14078 | Without this alliance Italy might, indeed, have acquired Venice, but would the German Empire have been founded? |
| 14078 | Would Confalonieri enlighten them? |
| 14078 | Would events have justified him again? |
| 14078 | You wish to have done with priestly rule, and to send the Teutons out of Italy? |
| 14078 | said Forbes;''you do n''t imagine they will be fools enough to believe it?'' |
| 14078 | supposed the insurrection to be the work of a virtuous peasantry, why did he allow them to rush to their destruction? |
| 16477 | Come volete faccia che non pianga, Sapendo che da voi devo partire? 16477 Silk?" |
| 16477 | What have you there that you are shutting up so close? |
| 16477 | 5), and Solinus too, as though it were indubitable: who does not know that Pisa was from Pelops?" |
| 16477 | Ah, what would we not give just for a moment to hear his voice in that place to- day? |
| 16477 | And how should I but be glad that the sun will be hot, and how should I but be thankful that I shall come under the olives? |
| 16477 | And if you do, are they any more to you than an idle tale, a legend, which has lost even its meaning? |
| 16477 | And then has he not built as only a painter could have done, in white and rose and green? |
| 16477 | And then where is there a better inn than Albergo Amorosi of Bibbiena, unless, indeed, it be the unmatched hostelry at Fivizzano? |
| 16477 | And then, was it not Cosimo who had rebuilt the convent, was it not Cosimo who had built S. Lorenzo and S. Spirito too, by the hand of Michelozzo? |
| 16477 | And then, who knows what awaits one on the way? |
| 16477 | And when they had gone on a little way, the peasant said to St. Francis,''Tell me, art thou Brother Francis of Assisi?'' |
| 16477 | And, indeed, the latter conclusion seems likely, for who can believe that the Duke would have cared for a nude portrait of his wife as Venus? |
| 16477 | As we look at their work in the galleries and churches, who cares what has happened to them, or whether such graves as theirs are rifled or no? |
| 16477 | But in Cosimo''s day men had no fear, the day was at the dawn: who could have thought by sunset life would be so disastrous? |
| 16477 | But of one of the pupils of Luca, Agostino di Duccio, 1418- 81(? |
| 16477 | But, indeed, what crime would be too great in order to possess oneself of such a thing? |
| 16477 | By what right do you refuse to do what I have done? |
| 16477 | Can it be that, after all, it would have seemed more secure, more firm and established, if the spire Giotto designed for it had in truth been built? |
| 16477 | Can it have been this"pious brother"who wrote the_ Fioretti_? |
| 16477 | Could these things have happened in any other city save Prato, or to any other than a child in the days not so long before Savonarola was burned? |
| 16477 | Did she hear as of old-- that Virgin with narrow half- open eyes and the sidelong look? |
| 16477 | Do you wonder why Carrara has never produced a sculptor? |
| 16477 | Full of memories-- and of what else, then, but the past can she dream? |
| 16477 | Hearing them make mention of Brother Francis, he asked them:''Are ye of the brethren of the brother of Assisi, of whom so much good is spoken?'' |
| 16477 | Hearing these words, St. Francis thought no scorn to be admonished by a peasant, and said not within himself,''What beast is this doth admonish me?'' |
| 16477 | How could Lorenzo restore that which he had never stolen away, that which had, in truth, never had any real existence? |
| 16477 | How may I describe the wonder of that place? |
| 16477 | How, after the delight, the delicate charm of the fifteenth century, can I speak of this beautiful, strong, and tragic soul? |
| 16477 | In this disaster who knows what became of the miracle picture of Madonna? |
| 16477 | Is it any wonder her fellow- servants hated her, called her modesty simplicity, her want of spirit servility? |
| 16477 | Is it any wonder that, impossible as his dream appeared, he had his way with Florence at last-- yes, and with himself too? |
| 16477 | Is it only sleep? |
| 16477 | Is it still true of her, that though she is proud she is not proud enough? |
| 16477 | Is, then, the work of Marsilio Ficino nothing, the labours of a thousand forgotten humanists? |
| 16477 | Nor was that vision, so full of wisdom( a vision of birth or resurrection, was it?) |
| 16477 | O poggio traditor, che ne farai? |
| 16477 | O poggio traditor, che ne farete? |
| 16477 | Or again, with half a sob--"Come volete faccia che non pianga Sapendo che da voi devo partire? |
| 16477 | Shall we forgive them, and forget that since our hearts are changed they are changed also? |
| 16477 | Surely it was an emerald once? |
| 16477 | That Virgin, was she Queen of Angels or some Florentine girl?--and then those angels, are they not the very children of the City of Flowers? |
| 16477 | That passionate and dreadful picture of St. Mary Magdalen covered by her hair as with a robe of red gold, does it move us at all? |
| 16477 | Then said I,"What are those leaves that you have there, and what are you going to do with them?" |
| 16477 | Then they sing of Saturday and Sunday--"Quando sara sabato sera, quando? |
| 16477 | There he found him in ecstasy, saying,''Who art Thou, O most sweet, my God? |
| 16477 | There lay Luca della Robbia, Lorenzo di Credi, Mariotto Albertinelli, Piero di Cosimo: where is their dust to- day? |
| 16477 | There you may see him lecturing to his students, and one of them is a woman; can it be that Selvaggia whom he loved? |
| 16477 | Those small pictures of the life of St. Mary, which surround her still with their beauty, do you even know what they mean? |
| 16477 | Was it Florence herself perhaps who hung there? |
| 16477 | Was it a bird, or my angel, whose beautiful, anxious wings trembled lest I should fall in a land less simple than this? |
| 16477 | Was it for this the Greeks blinded their statues, lest the gods being in exile, they might be shamed by the indifference of men? |
| 16477 | Was this a premonition of his own death, a hint, as it were, that in such a place one like Shelley might well hope for from the gods? |
| 16477 | Was this, then, the saviour of Savonarola''s dreams? |
| 16477 | Well, but that depends on what you seek, does it not? |
| 16477 | What am I, most vile worm, and Thine unprofitable servant?'' |
| 16477 | What could be more like a child''s dream of a church than La Madonna delle Carceri? |
| 16477 | What do we owe to Savonarola? |
| 16477 | What has the Venetian Jew, Daniel Manin, to do with them? |
| 16477 | What music does he hear, that monk with the beautiful sensitive hands, who turns away towards his companion? |
| 16477 | What then did Pisa look like in these the days of her great power and prosperity? |
| 16477 | What then, we may ask ourselves, were the aim and desire of the Italian builders, which it seems have escaped us for so long? |
| 16477 | What was it that haunted this shore, full of foreboding, prophesying death? |
| 16477 | What, then, was that Savonarola whom all have conspired to praise, whose windy prophecies, whose blasphemous cursings men count as so precious? |
| 16477 | Wherefore? |
| 16477 | Who knows what Italy, under the heel of the barbarian, does not owe to these faded pages, and through Italy the world? |
| 16477 | Who knows what beauty has here passed by? |
| 16477 | Who knows? |
| 16477 | Who knows? |
| 16477 | Who may describe the colour and the delicate glory of this work? |
| 16477 | Will it explain to us the rise of Florentine painting? |
| 16477 | Will one ever reach them, those far- away pure peaks immaculate in silence, like a thought of God in the loneliness of the mountains? |
| 16477 | Yes, and to- day, too, do they not proclaim the tombola where once they announced a victory? |
| 16477 | [ 137] What can have been the overmastering necessity that drove her on so bloody a path? |
| 16477 | [ 138] And did not Pistoja guard the way to the north, to Bologna, to Milan, to Flanders, and England, whence came the wool that was her wealth? |
| 16477 | [ 62] Was it here, or in the Ospedale dei Trovatelli close to S. Michele in Borgo? |
| 16477 | [ 84] Was it that he envied him his verses or feared his wisdom, or did he indeed think he plotted with the Pope? |

| 18100 | But beneath the cloak what is there? 18100 Clodia,"he said, slaying a sentence on her lips,"Clodia, do you know that hell is here on this earth and that such as you help to people it? |
| 18100 | Dear Cynic,laughed Calpurnia,"do we know any more about the populace than Juvenal knows about us?" |
| 18100 | Did Cicero talk of her too? |
| 18100 | Do you ever dream of your dead? |
| 18100 | Do you expect to extract from the lees an ode to Augustus? |
| 18100 | Do you fight for Rome? 18100 Do you mean Clodia?" |
| 18100 | Do you, too, dream at night? 18100 Fidus was almost impertinent to father, was n''t he? |
| 18100 | Flaccus, you have never loved a woman, have you? |
| 18100 | How lately have you heard from Virgil? |
| 18100 | I seem very old- fashioned to you, do I not, dear child? 18100 Is that quite fair?" |
| 18100 | It is a pity, is it not,said Cornelia,"that Juvenal could not have known men like Corellius and your uncle, Pliny, and all the rest of you? |
| 18100 | My Lantern Bearer, you are not going to lose your light and your music, are you? 18100 So,"Valerius was saying,"you do n''t think we work only to live? |
| 18100 | What have you heard? |
| 18100 | What is so bitter,his friend had urged,"if it comes in the end to sleep? |
| 18100 | When is he coming home? |
| 18100 | Why? |
| 18100 | ''Does he think to wing our Roman eagles with money or with glory?'' |
| 18100 | A boy, self- centred, melancholy, and in love-- what do you want of him?" |
| 18100 | After all, to live is the object of life, and where can you live more richly, more exquisitely than here? |
| 18100 | And because the unspeakable Clodius had played Jupiter to his youngest sister''s Juno need Clodia be considered less than a Diana to his Apollo? |
| 18100 | And do you think she has deserved it?" |
| 18100 | And if this could be, what was the duty of each Roman whose pure desires lay with Poetry and her sisters? |
| 18100 | And in art and literature what are we doing, save recalling in vague echoes the greater voices of a dead past? |
| 18100 | And what if Brutus had been"mistaken?" |
| 18100 | And what passion is more devouring than that frenzy of the lover which is never satisfied? |
| 18100 | And what was her own idea? |
| 18100 | And why had he talked of_ a hidden poison of which men might sicken and die_? |
| 18100 | And will the Como boys become sparkling little Plinies? |
| 18100 | Are you going to be a poet some day? |
| 18100 | Because she was no Alcestis need she be called a Medea or a Clytemnestra? |
| 18100 | Besides( so his irritated thoughts ran on), how could Florus expect a man who lived in Rome to write imaginative poetry? |
| 18100 | But are you in danger of losing Verona in Rome?" |
| 18100 | But was it true that her life as a whole had no meaning or value apart from his? |
| 18100 | But was there a vaster significance in a noble death? |
| 18100 | But what chance was there of such a desire being fulfilled? |
| 18100 | But what could he, Paulus, do? |
| 18100 | But what is the life of our generation-- the life, I mean, in which I have any individual share? |
| 18100 | But wherein, after all, lies the greatness of the greatest of them? |
| 18100 | But you, what are you and your friends doing? |
| 18100 | Could Fors Fortuna herself, she wondered, be any happier, laden with beauty and riches and power, and making of them a saving gift for mortals? |
| 18100 | Could he have bought his heart''s desire with the little green gleam? |
| 18100 | Do you know what the characteristic moment of my life was? |
| 18100 | Do you think a middle- class woman could have controlled herself so finely?" |
| 18100 | Do you think she will?" |
| 18100 | Had Athens taught him something even profounder than the art which had made him Rome''s best lyric poet? |
| 18100 | He is a friend of the family, is he not?" |
| 18100 | He turned his eyes to me and said:''Why do you think I have endured this pain so long? |
| 18100 | He used to point out to me that not even Homer made money, so what could I expect? |
| 18100 | His ears caught the words of one of the actors:"Well, do not then the gods look out for us?" |
| 18100 | If he suffered in this hour, what comfort was there in the thought of other suffering and other years? |
| 18100 | Immemorial tendernesses were in his voice as he spoke to his wife:"My sweet, what are you thinking of, withdrawn so far from me?" |
| 18100 | In the meantime"--he added lightly--"some of us have to plod along with our old habits, or where would the Empire be? |
| 18100 | In the service of beauty was there either Greek or Roman? |
| 18100 | Is it cruel to warn you of what may never come to you? |
| 18100 | Is it not possible that you are misled by your personal prejudices? |
| 18100 | Is n''t Rome much finer and more finished?" |
| 18100 | Is n''t everybody aghast? |
| 18100 | Is not Rome, then, all the more left to our defence? |
| 18100 | Is that all my bad dreams mean?" |
| 18100 | It is quite in the air, is n''t it, the independence of women, their right to choose their own paths? |
| 18100 | It is un- Roman, yes, incoherent and moody and subversive of law and order, but is it false to human life? |
| 18100 | Made into what? |
| 18100 | Now that our sky is blazing with the midday sun, shall we betray and make void those early hopes? |
| 18100 | Or is it sapphics to which we eat this year? |
| 18100 | Ought he now to return to her and live and work and die unknown, serving only as one more citizen ready to welcome the poets to be? |
| 18100 | Shall he go back to Carthage or Rome to laugh at our village banquets? |
| 18100 | Shall the sistrum of Isis drown our prayers to the gods of our country, native- born, who guard the Tiber and our Roman Palatine? |
| 18100 | Should he go to her as a suppliant and pay in reiterated torture for Clytemnestra''s embrace and for Juno''s regilded favours? |
| 18100 | Should he hold out his cold hands to this new fire? |
| 18100 | Since when have you turned Cato?" |
| 18100 | Tell me, does that really satisfy you?" |
| 18100 | Tell me,"he added brutally, leaning toward her,"for who should know better than you? |
| 18100 | That may do for the night seasons, but with the sun are there not new conquests, and new shields? |
| 18100 | To- day''s my joy and sorrow, Who knows what comes to- morrow? |
| 18100 | Was he not narrowing art within the borders of nationality? |
| 18100 | Was he the helpful teacher Gellius thought him, or the blatant charlatan of Lucian''s frequent attacks? |
| 18100 | Was it here, his flame of life? |
| 18100 | Was it only hot youth and Brutus that had carried him off on that foolhardy expedition? |
| 18100 | Was it only last April that upon this road he and Valerius had had that revealing hour? |
| 18100 | Was it possible that Athens herself had driven him forth, furnishing him as wings superb impulses born of the glory of her past? |
| 18100 | Was it possible that a nation which had given birth to a force like this could also bring forth in due season a love of beauty, a thirst for truth? |
| 18100 | Was it possible that his fight on that field of defeat had been, not a folly, but the golden moment of his life? |
| 18100 | Was it, indeed, days like these that had made Brutus''s work so easy when he began to collect his young company about him? |
| 18100 | Was there even a truer citizenship in the prodigal and voluntary pouring out of life, on a field of defeat, amid alien and awful desolation? |
| 18100 | Was there ever a time when she needed more the loyalty of us all? |
| 18100 | Was there not a higher wisdom than that which could fashion nations? |
| 18100 | Was this an example of the intellectual enlightenment awaiting him, he had so fondly hoped, in Athens? |
| 18100 | Was this fear at last overtaking her swiftest pace? |
| 18100 | What are you doing, my best of friends?" |
| 18100 | What could a theory of freedom give the country better than the peace and the prosperity brought about by the magnanimous Emperor? |
| 18100 | What does he think of Propertius''s peccadilloes, by the way? |
| 18100 | What healing had nature or law to give when flesh was torn from flesh and heart estranged from heart beyond recall? |
| 18100 | What is all the rest? |
| 18100 | What is moral truth?" |
| 18100 | What is your name, Companion- in- arms? |
| 18100 | What meaning was there in her phrase--"The wife of a Roman citizen?" |
| 18100 | What was Augustus''s command to her? |
| 18100 | What was this"fame"to which men were willing to sacrifice their citizenship? |
| 18100 | What were hours and minutes to the dead? |
| 18100 | What, I mean, has there been for me? |
| 18100 | When men see her as she is in her ancient greatness and her immortal future, will not greed and lust depart from their hearts? |
| 18100 | Where could Davus be? |
| 18100 | Who knows? |
| 18100 | Why are you over here? |
| 18100 | Why did his ears ring, suddenly, strangely, with the laughter of bright, blue waves and the cadences of a voice telling a child Medea''s story? |
| 18100 | Why do you not restore your lovers to their reason, to the service of the state, to a knowledge of nature?" |
| 18100 | Why should all her prayers be said to the Penates on her hearth? |
| 18100 | Why should he go, he asked with a flicker of his old vivacity, when to go meant leaving Rome and turning toward Scythia? |
| 18100 | Why should she seek out a slight, pale boy who had little to give her except a heart too honest for her to understand? |
| 18100 | Why, then, do you delay to fulfill my hope? |
| 18100 | Will he be a Mercury in swaddling clothes by next year? |
| 18100 | Will he be as merry a guide as your Quintilian was? |
| 18100 | Will you not help me to work for Rome''s need? |
| 18100 | Will you not let me commend my Mistress to you? |
| 18100 | Will you tell me of her yourself?" |
| 18100 | Would he moan in his sleep again, without her quieting hand upon his face, or wake from dreams of her to loneliness? |
| 18100 | does not the sweetest hour of love hold a drop of bitter? |
| 18100 | who knows? |
| 14634 | ''And has he got a vote?'' |
| 14634 | ''Does his coat Fit?'' |
| 14634 | ''What are you called?'' |
| 14634 | ''What''s his race?'' |
| 14634 | ''Who''s his father?'' |
| 14634 | A bloodhound; do you brave, do you stand me? |
| 14634 | A bravo is asked: Dost thou imagine thou canst slide on blood, And not be tainted with a shameful fall? |
| 14634 | A girl speaks thus within sight of the grave( p. 808):-- Yes, I shall die: what wilt thou gain? |
| 14634 | Ah, when will dawn that blissful day When I shall softly mount your stair, Your brothers meet me on the way, And one by one I greet them there? |
| 14634 | Ah, when will dawn that day of bliss When we before the priest say Yes? |
| 14634 | Am I your dog? |
| 14634 | And what can be more piteous than this prayer? |
| 14634 | And whence flows this pride? |
| 14634 | But how should the unfortunate Francesco be entrapped? |
| 14634 | Charles Lamb was certainly in error? |
| 14634 | Couldst thou not speak some seasonable word, Tell him what shame this idle love hath wrought? |
| 14634 | Do the noblemen of Rome Erect it for their wives, that I am sent To lodge there? |
| 14634 | Do you know me? |
| 14634 | Fair one, haste our king to greet: Who will fling him blossoms sweet Soonest on this first of May? |
| 14634 | For what past sorrow is he weary of his life? |
| 14634 | From those who feel the fire I feel, what use Is there in asking pardon? |
| 14634 | He looks sturdy, and may live to be of any age-- doomed always, is that possible, to beg? |
| 14634 | He who steals another''s heart, Let him give his own heart too: Who''s the robber? |
| 14634 | How can I sing light- souled and fancy- free, When my loved lord no longer smiles on me? |
| 14634 | How can I sing light- souled and fancy- free, When my loved lord no longer smiles on me? |
| 14634 | How can I sing light- souled and fancy- free, When my loved lord no longer smiles on me? |
| 14634 | How can I sing light- souled and fancy- free, When my loved lord no longer smiles on me? |
| 14634 | How have I made, dear Lord, dame Fortune wroth? |
| 14634 | How indeed could he make this city in a moment free, after sixty years of slow and systematic corruption? |
| 14634 | How shall I bear a pang so passing sore? |
| 14634 | How shall I make the fount of tears abound, To weep apace with grief''s unmeasured flow? |
| 14634 | How shall we reconstruct the long- past life which filled its rooms with sound, the splendour of its pageants, the thrill of tragedies enacted here? |
| 14634 | I have often asked myself, Who, then, was this nun? |
| 14634 | In his rage he cries: What fury raised_ thee_ up? |
| 14634 | In other words, what is the characteristic which, proceeding from the personality of the artist, is impressed on all his work? |
| 14634 | In the following picture of the house of Venus, who shall say how much of Ariosto''s Alcina and Tasso''s Armida is contained? |
| 14634 | Is a girl about to win A brave husband in her lover?-- Straight you set to talk him over:''Is he wealthy?'' |
| 14634 | Is all art excellent in itself and good in its effect that is beautiful and earnest? |
| 14634 | Is he out in it, and where? |
| 14634 | Love, what hast thou to command? |
| 14634 | Mark ye how sunk in woe The poor wretch forth doth pass, And may not answer, for his grief, one word? |
| 14634 | Methinks I am dropping in swoon or slumber: Am I drunken or sober, yes or no? |
| 14634 | Midas treads a wearier measure: All he touches turns to gold: If there be no taste of pleasure, What''s the use of wealth untold? |
| 14634 | No, you pander? |
| 14634 | Now, prithee, let me hear what made you stay So long upon the upland lawns away? |
| 14634 | O traitor hill, what shall it be? |
| 14634 | O traitor hill, what will you do? |
| 14634 | Or is it my brain that reels away? |
| 14634 | Or with thy beauty choose To make him blest who loves thee best of all? |
| 14634 | Or, like the black and melancholic yew- tree, Dost think to root thyself in dead men''s graves, And yet to prosper? |
| 14634 | Oredimus? |
| 14634 | Say, hast thou seen a calf of mine, all white Save for a spot of black upon her front, Two feet, one flank, and one knee ruddy- bright? |
| 14634 | Say, hast thou seen her now? |
| 14634 | See''st thou that all his senses are distraught? |
| 14634 | See, I have emptied my horn already: Stretch hither your beaker to me, I pray: Are the hills and the lawns where we roam unsteady? |
| 14634 | Shall we these years that are so fair let fly? |
| 14634 | Should he bring manuscripts or marbles, precious vases or inscriptions in half- legible Greek character? |
| 14634 | Since you beg with such a grace, How can I refuse a song, Wholesome, honest, void of wrong, On the follies of the place? |
| 14634 | Since you beg with such a grace, How can I refuse a song, Wholesome, honest, void of wrong, On the follies of the place? |
| 14634 | Tell me, dear love, which are the most, Your light steps or the sighs they cost? |
| 14634 | Tell me, dear love, which more abound, My sighs or your steps on the ground? |
| 14634 | The scholar''s scepticism, which lies at the root of his perversity, finds utterance in this meditation upon death: Whither shall I go now? |
| 14634 | Then answers Love: Hast thou no memory How I to lovers this great guerdon give, Free from all human bondage to endure? |
| 14634 | Thyrsis, what thinkest thou of thy loved lord? |
| 14634 | What anguish of remorse has driven him to such a solitude? |
| 14634 | What are these weights my feet encumber? |
| 14634 | What beauty manifest? |
| 14634 | What calm is in the kiss of noon? |
| 14634 | What found you by the way to do? |
| 14634 | What grace of heaven, what lucky star benign Yields me the sight of beauty so divine?'' |
| 14634 | What grace, what love, what fate surpassing fear Shall give me wings like dove''s wings soft as snow, That I may rest and raise me from the clay? |
| 14634 | What have I done, dear Lord, the world to cross? |
| 14634 | What have I done, dear Lord, to fret the folk? |
| 14634 | What history had she? |
| 14634 | What is''t distracts you? |
| 14634 | What joy hast thou to keep a captive hung? |
| 14634 | What joy hath rapt me from my own control? |
| 14634 | What light is this? |
| 14634 | What man is he who with his golden lyre Hath moved the gates that never move, While the dead folk repeat his dirge of love? |
| 14634 | What mattered it that the theme was slight? |
| 14634 | What melody? |
| 14634 | What of the calf? |
| 14634 | What place would there be for a Correggio or a Raphael in such a world as Webster''s? |
| 14634 | What sorrow- laden song shall e''er be found To match the burden of my matchless woe? |
| 14634 | What sweet makes me swoon? |
| 14634 | What terrible crime had consigned him to this living tomb? |
| 14634 | What was the cause of his death? |
| 14634 | What''s this flesh? |
| 14634 | What, me, my lord? |
| 14634 | What, then, is the Correggiosity of Correggio? |
| 14634 | When comes the day, my staff, my strength, To call your mother mine at length? |
| 14634 | When will the Italians learn to use these men as Fabius or as Cæsar, not as the Vitelli and the Trinci used them? |
| 14634 | When will the day come, love of mine, I shall be yours and you be mine? |
| 14634 | Whence came pure peace into my soul? |
| 14634 | Where am I? |
| 14634 | Where is the sun which shone so fair? |
| 14634 | Who brought me here? |
| 14634 | Who can rebuke me then if I am kind So far as honesty comports and Love? |
| 14634 | Who e''er will sing so sweetly, now she''s gone? |
| 14634 | Who hath laid laws on Love? |
| 14634 | Who knows, for instance, the veritable author of many of those mighty German chorals which sprang into being at the period of the Reformation? |
| 14634 | Who speaks? |
| 14634 | Who was the first to give it shape and form? |
| 14634 | Why did the Greeks consecrate these myrtle- rods to Death as well as Love? |
| 14634 | Why do we here desire the flower of some emergent feeling to grow from the air, or from the soil, or from humanity to greet us? |
| 14634 | Will pity not be given For one short look so full thereof? |
| 14634 | Wilt thou not put thy flower of youth to use? |
| 14634 | Would you be kicked? |
| 14634 | Would you have your neck broke? |
| 14634 | Yet both perhaps have scarcely interpreted their own spirit; for is not the true source of tears deeper and more secret? |
| 14634 | an lateri juncta puella meo?_ EURYDICE. |
| 14634 | through what long years Will she withhold her face from me, Which stills the stormy skies howe''er they rave? |
| 14634 | what is''t? |
| 14634 | what''s that? |
| 14634 | what''s that? |
| 14634 | wherefore did she cease and loose my hand? |
| 32356 | But will you also divide your mother? |
| 32356 | Can I avoid,he exclaimed to Livia,"treating this woman with harshness, when she accuses me to my face of seeking to poison her?" |
| 32356 | Had he objections to her person or her ancestry? 32356 PORTIA.--I prithee, boy, run to the senate- house; Stay not to answer me, but get thee gone: Why dost thou stay? |
| 32356 | Tell me,said the great emperor,"have I played well my part?" |
| 32356 | What can you see from up there? |
| 32356 | What think you she is praying for so intently? |
| 32356 | Why did he delay to marry her? |
| 32356 | Why does not Nero,the tyrant asks of himself,"banishing all fear, set about expediting his marriage with Poppæa? |
| 32356 | Why, then, are you emperor? |
| 32356 | With whom do you live? |
| 32356 | Yes,answered the philosopher;"but what have you done that you should be condemned to witness such an exhibition?" |
| 32356 | You ask,says Juvenal,"whence arise our disorders? |
| 32356 | ''How can I listen to you,''she said to her,''who have seen your husband killed in your arms, and who are still alive?'' |
| 32356 | ''Is it your wish, then,''he said to her,''if I should be compelled to die, that your daughter should die with me?'' |
| 32356 | A connection? |
| 32356 | And if he had not, why did he take her again? |
| 32356 | And so return to you, and nothing else? |
| 32356 | And when the wife tremblingly inquires:"But had he died in the business, madam-- what then?" |
| 32356 | And, in truth, if he can come forth from the dead, he will deal with her thus; he will say:''Woman, what have you to do with Coelius? |
| 32356 | Are your blandishments more seducing in public than in private, and with other women''s husbands than your own? |
| 32356 | As to the time and manner of Portia''s death, the ancient writers are not fully agreed? |
| 32356 | But have we raised soldiers against you, or sought after your offices? |
| 32356 | But was she worthy to be the custodian of her husband''s secrets? |
| 32356 | CASSIUS.--Ha!--Portia? |
| 32356 | CASSIUS.--How''scap''d I killing, when I cross''d you so? |
| 32356 | Can you submit to be the slave of any woman, while so many halters are to be had? |
| 32356 | Could not each have made the same request to her husband at home?. |
| 32356 | CÆSAR.-- What can be avoided, Whose end is purpos''d by the mighty gods? |
| 32356 | Cæsar, upon this, reproached Cato with covetousness;"for,"he said,"if he had need of a wife, why did he part with her? |
| 32356 | Did he doubt the sincerity of her affection? |
| 32356 | Did not Augustus dedicate a public library in the name of his sister Octavia? |
| 32356 | Did they visit each other and engage in the discussion of those topics which were then current in the atriums and gardens of Rome? |
| 32356 | Do these women represent the four towns of the vicinity, or are they the symbol of all the cities of Italy which had profited by the same benefaction? |
| 32356 | Do they impeach him for mismanagement of his province? |
| 32356 | Do we dispute the power for which you are fighting? |
| 32356 | During those fierce political disturbances and bloody revolutions, how did woman fare? |
| 32356 | For since Tiberius was not spared, what trust can we place either in the laws or in the gods?" |
| 32356 | For what will they not attempt, if they now come off victorious? |
| 32356 | For, what are they doing at this moment in your streets and lanes? |
| 32356 | Has length of life and a hapless old age reserved me for this-- to behold you an exile and an enemy?... |
| 32356 | How did those centuries of varying civic fortune affect the status of the women? |
| 32356 | How hard it is for women to keep counsel!-- Art thou here yet? |
| 32356 | How then are we to account for this monotonous orgy of libidinosity? |
| 32356 | Into what place can you lead him where the monuments of his glory do not protest against the horror of his punishment?" |
| 32356 | Is there one of them who is inclined to be stout? |
| 32356 | It was asked of old:"Can a clean thing come out of an unclean?" |
| 32356 | It was but a phantom of liberty, truly; but when has the world really seen more? |
| 32356 | LUCIUS.--Madam, what should I do? |
| 32356 | Nero was part actor, part clown, wholly debased; what could be expected from the associates of such a man, or from the people who tolerated him? |
| 32356 | O insupportable and touching loss!--Upon what sickness? |
| 32356 | Or was he dissatisfied because she had given proof of her fertility? |
| 32356 | Run to the Capitol, and nothing else? |
| 32356 | Say, what Tisiphone, what snakes, are driving you mad? |
| 32356 | Shall our children wear gowns bordered with the same color, and shall we interdict the use of it to women alone? |
| 32356 | Shall we men have the use of the purple? |
| 32356 | Shall your horse, even, be more splendidly caparisoned than your wife is clothed?" |
| 32356 | Suppose, then, that he speaks to you in this way:''What are you making this disturbance about, my sister? |
| 32356 | Then he asked abruptly:"Julia, which would you rather be-- gray or bald?" |
| 32356 | Think you to walk forth? |
| 32356 | This would hurt the feelings even of men, and what do you think must be its effect on weak women, whom even trifles can disturb? |
| 32356 | Thus has the great dramatist, in a manner which it would be folly to imitate or replace, depicted the scene:"CALPURNIA.--What mean you, Cæsar? |
| 32356 | To whom else should Trajan leave the Empire? |
| 32356 | Valerius is made to say:"Shall our wives alone reap none of the fruits of the public peace and tranquillity? |
| 32356 | Was he a friend of your husband? |
| 32356 | Was he a relation? |
| 32356 | Was it for this I made the Appian Way, that you should travel along it escorted by other men besides your husband?''" |
| 32356 | Was it for this that I broke the treaty which was concluded with Pyrrhus, that you should every day make new treaties of most disgraceful love? |
| 32356 | Were my gray hairs reserved for such intolerable disgrace? |
| 32356 | Were they friends, these two ladies, as their husbands were supposed to be? |
| 32356 | What avail me those brazen sistra of hers so often shaken by your hand? |
| 32356 | What but arguing, some in support of the motion of the plebeian tribunes, others for the repeal of the law? |
| 32356 | What did I not? |
| 32356 | What have you remaining of her, of her who breathed loves and ravished me from myself? |
| 32356 | What is the verdict? |
| 32356 | What modesty can a woman show that wears a helmet, eschews her sex, and delights in feats of strength?" |
| 32356 | What more touching expression of family affection can there be found than the words Tacitus wrote in respect to Agricola''s death? |
| 32356 | What was the attribute that captivated her? |
| 32356 | What was the reason, then, except some folly? |
| 32356 | When the dress of all is alike, why should any one of you fear lest she should not be an object of observation? |
| 32356 | Whence do we obtain our picture of the Rome of those times? |
| 32356 | Where was she when I by my counsels obtained the adoption of her nephew and my son into the Claudian house? |
| 32356 | Which shall we call the worse, their love making or your compassion? |
| 32356 | Whither is your beauty gone? |
| 32356 | Whither your graceful deportment? |
| 32356 | Who are the witnesses against her? |
| 32356 | Who were they? |
| 32356 | Why are you so mad? |
| 32356 | Why do I not make a figure, distinguished with gold and purple? |
| 32356 | Why do you annoy this one man who scorns you?''" |
| 32356 | Why have you been so intimate with him as to lend him gold, or so much an enemy as to fear his poison? |
| 32356 | Why was it that the women of this period indulged to such an unnatural and unrestrained degree the grosser appetites? |
| 32356 | Yet she could not ask:"Is Cæsar yet gone to the Capitol?" |
| 32356 | Yet what reward have I? |
| 32356 | or whither your bloom? |
| 32356 | so long as high and dizzy windows are accessible, and the Æmilian bridge presents itself so near at hand?" |
| 32356 | to thee?" |
| 32356 | what noise is that? |
| 9781 | But what,said Laelius"if he had willed that you should fire the Capitol?" |
| 9781 | I have never been frightened by the clamour of the enemy in arms,he shouted,"shall I be alarmed by your cries, ye step- sons of Italy?" |
| 9781 | Was it true that the land which had been given them in usufruct was to be taken away? |
| 9781 | What need for all this haste,she said,"unless indeed you have found Tiberius Gracchus for our girl?" |
| 9781 | 165 Si ex vocabulo, ut Carbo: Sei consul est qui consuluit patriae, quid aliud fecit Opimius? |
| 9781 | 2 Quis crederet Siciliam multo cruentius servili quam Punico bello esse vastatam? |
| 9781 | 31 Audes etiam, Rulle, mentionem facere legis Semproniae, nec te ea lex ipsa commonet III viros illos XXXV tribuum suffragio creatos esse? |
| 9781 | 82 Ubi enim tuleras ut mihi aqua et igni interdiceretur? |
| 9781 | A prosecution of Nasica was threatened; and in such a case might not the arguments that vindicated Octavius be the doom of the accused? |
| 9781 | Again, what should be the limits of our action in dealing with sacred things? |
| 9781 | And had not they in a sense made Scipio? |
| 9781 | And how had they used it? |
| 9781 | And now what was their reward? |
| 9781 | And, if Rome did not protect, to whom could a client- king look for aid? |
| 9781 | And, if sanctity alone is to be the ground of immunity, what are we to think of the punishment of a vestal virgin? |
| 9781 | And, if the fugitives crossed the sea, what homes had they to which they could return? |
| 9781 | But what form should this enthusiasm assume? |
| 9781 | But what if official power, under either of its aspects, could make a compromise with greed? |
| 9781 | But what were those claims? |
| 9781 | But whence were the means for starting these penniless people on their new road to virtue and prosperity to be derived? |
| 9781 | Can Wisdom be put in a silver rod? |
| 9781 | Can anything have been more powerful or more sacred than the ancient monarchy of Rome? |
| 9781 | Cato, who had a sentimental attachment to agriculture, was bound in honesty to reply to the question"What is the best manner of investment?" |
| 9781 | Could it be based on convenience? |
| 9781 | Cum ille... dixisset"Quid fenerari?" |
| 9781 | Denique quae pausa erit? |
| 9781 | Does sanctity mean immobility? |
| 9781 | Ecquando desinemus et habentes et praebentes molestiis insistere? |
| 9781 | Ecquando desinet familia nostra insanire? |
| 9781 | Ecquando modus ei rei haberi poterit? |
| 9781 | Ecquando perpudescet miscenda atque perturbanda re publica? |
| 9781 | Et cum omnis contio adclamasset,"Hostium,"inquit,"armatorum totiens clamore non territus, qui possum vestro moveri, quorum noverca est Italia?" |
| 9781 | For how could power be exercised or enjoyed in the face of a hostile judicature? |
| 9781 | For what Roman or Italian could doubt that the most perfect security for his life and person was still implicit in the magic name of Rome? |
| 9781 | Had he not for years been treated as an escaped criminal, not as a hostile king? |
| 9781 | Had the leader and the party that had been crushed shown by their actions that they were overt enemies of the State? |
| 9781 | Have they nothing for the man who wants a coat?" |
| 9781 | How could it be more emphatically proclaimed than by making its consequences perpetual and giving it a kind of penal character? |
| 9781 | If an antiquated constitution disappeared in the course of this glorious expansion, where was the loss? |
| 9781 | If there was blood in the picture, when had it been absent from the annals of Rome? |
| 9781 | In such a case might not the power of the individual be made secure, and what was this but monarchy? |
| 9781 | Is there anything in Rome more holy and awe- inspiring than the maidens who tend and guard the eternal flame? |
| 9781 | It was clear that the anxious Numidian was watching their every movement; the question to be answered was"Was Prince Volux in the plot?" |
| 9781 | Make that life a certainty, and would any Numidian longer balance the doubt against the certainty? |
| 9781 | Might he ask a few questions before the regular proceedings began? |
| 9781 | Might not his power be defended and perpetuated by a weapon mightier than the voting tablet? |
| 9781 | Or wilt thou go ask the Mole? |
| 9781 | Quid secundum? |
| 9781 | Should difficulties arise with Rome, might not the assent of the great powers be purchased with a price? |
| 9781 | Should the same not be true of the tribune? |
| 9781 | Should we leave a tribune alone who was pulling down the Capitolium or burning the docks? |
| 9781 | The cardinal question therefore is"Potueritne recte salutis rei publicae causa civem eversorem civitatis indemnatum necare?" |
| 9781 | The cause of Jugurtha was desperate; did the King of Mauretania wish to bring his own country into the same miserable plight? |
| 9781 | The phantom of his brother had appeared and addressed him in these words"Why dost thou linger, Caius? |
| 9781 | These questions were"Could the exhausting drain be stopped?" |
| 9781 | To what consequences might not its repetition lead? |
| 9781 | Was Rome to waste her own strength and stake the peace of the empire on a mere question of dynastic succession? |
| 9781 | Was a man who had led the State to fight against it, and the rule of reason to be exchanged for the base arbitrament of the sword? |
| 9781 | Was he himself suspected? |
| 9781 | Was it possible that these kindly and courteous men were the spoilers of the world? |
| 9781 | Was it safer to fly into darkness and some unknown ambush or to keep one''s ground and meet the approaching enemy? |
| 9781 | Was there likely to be a man whose position was better suited to a reconciliation of the war of jarring interests? |
| 9781 | Were Hiempsal''s death and Adherbal''s flight due to national discontent or the unprovoked ambition of Jugurtha? |
| 9781 | Were they to sanction what had been done, or to refuse to ratify the decision of the consul? |
| 9781 | What are more holy and inviolable than things dedicated to the gods? |
| 9781 | What does the history of the past teach us? |
| 9781 | What were Jugurtha''s ultimate motives? |
| 9781 | When he had consummated his crimes and absorbed the whole of Numidia, did he mean to remain a peaceful client- king, a faithful vassal of Rome? |
| 9781 | When the consul Bestia put the question"Is it the pleasure of the house that the envoys of Jugurtha be received within the walls?" |
| 9781 | Where was such a class to be found now? |
| 9781 | Who was Bocchus that he alone should be immune from such a danger? |
| 9781 | Who would withstand it? |
| 9781 | Why had the king broken off the negotiations? |
| 9781 | Why not submit the whole matter to the judgment of the great council of the State? |
| 9781 | Why should not the same be true of a new twist in domestic policy? |
| 9781 | Why should not they rely for political efficiency on another? |
| 9781 | Will they not swamp everything with their numbers?" |
| 9781 | Would not the Individual makeshift have in such a case as this to be invested with military authority? |
| 9781 | Would the danger be lessened, if he remained quiescent? |
| 9781 | [ 1043] But might not that very fact urge the minister to make his own compact with Rome? |
| 9781 | [ 1113] An opportunity was still open to him of becoming the friend and ally of Rome; why should he adopt this motiveless attitude of hostility? |
| 9781 | [ 299] But why was Scipio himself idle? |
| 9781 | [ 310] Was this the fate in store for Rome? |
| 9781 | [ 950] And what was the secret of the uncontrolled power, the shameless indifference to opinion that made such misdeeds possible? |

| 14381 | A young ragamuffin, who drove me from Rimini to Santa Maria, let slip a terrible expression, which I have often thought of since:"God?" |

| 14381 | Are such keepers likely to give up the keys? |
| 14381 | Are the different powers still confounded in practice? |
| 14381 | Are the higher posts in the State still by law interdicted to laymen? |
| 14381 | Are the people fat and thriving? |
| 14381 | Are the public finances publicly administered? |

| 14381 | But why should not the Head of the Church do as Pius V., who sent his sailors with the Spaniards and Venetians to the battle of Lepanto? |
| 14381 | But will the Pope and the Cardinals easily resign themselves to the condition of mere ministers of religion? |
| 14381 | By what is the Catholic world governed? |
| 14381 | Can one conceive a more ridiculous pretension? |
| 14381 | Can they, on that score at least, applaud their Government? |
| 14381 | Can we consistently admit nobility among horses and dogs, and deny it among men? |
| 14381 | Do n''t they well know-- dukes and princes-- that they are all alike inferior to the shabbiest of the cardinals? |
| 14381 | Do the descendants of Marius appear to you a race without courage, incapable of confronting danger? |
| 14381 | Do we suffice for ourselves? |
| 14381 | Do you really believe he thought of becoming the benefactor of the nation?--or the saviour of the Papacy?--or the Don Quixote of the Church? |
| 14381 | Do you require us to declare war against Europe for the sake of teaching our gendarmes to keep the peace at home?" |
| 14381 | Do you then, or do you not, wish to create a national force? |
| 14381 | Does he fear lest some enemy should invade his States? |
| 14381 | Does not he strike you as being somewhat changed? |
| 14381 | Does the Constitution of 1848, or the_ Motu Proprio_ of 1849, set limits to this authority? |
| 14381 | Does the Pope want to aggrandise himself by war? |
| 14381 | Does the nation vote the taxes, or are they taken from the nation? |
| 14381 | For after all, what is his end? |
| 14381 | Has he deprived himself of the right of overruling the decisions of the Courts of Appeal? |
| 14381 | Has the Cardinal Secretary of State ceased to be a reigning Minister? |
| 14381 | Has the Pope abandoned any portion of his infallibility as to worldly matters? |
| 14381 | Has the Pope renounced his title of administrator, or irresponsible guardian of the patrimony of Catholicism? |
| 14381 | Has the temporal power served its own interests better than it has those of God? |
| 14381 | Have they forgotten it? |
| 14381 | Have we succeeded? |
| 14381 | Have you any wish to see manufactories erected round St. Peter''s and turnip fields about the fountain of Egeria? |
| 14381 | Have you made up your mind on the subject? |
| 14381 | He pays the widow a pension: is not this the act of a clever man? |
| 14381 | How can you cultivate without men? |
| 14381 | How can you expect men to inhabit it at the risk of their lives? |
| 14381 | How do we find the Government acting in this respect? |
| 14381 | How do you know, that the particular abuse which most offends you is not absolutely necessary to the very existence of Rome? |
| 14381 | If Deacons are thus privileged, what latitude may we not claim who have not even assumed the tonsure? |
| 14381 | If some one, more ambitious than his fellows, undertakes an original work, whose opinion can he obtain as to its merits or demerits? |
| 14381 | In what hope, with what aim, did he come down from the mountains of Sonnino? |
| 14381 | Is it likely that we shall find the Austrian army seeking to render its presence needless, and spontaneously returning home? |
| 14381 | Is it my fault if the people respect nothing but the ecclesiastical garb?" |
| 14381 | Is it not much better to let the 100 rubbia to a cattle- breeder, who will pay a rent of thirty or forty shillings per rubbio? |
| 14381 | Is it not the admitted right of the Sovereign Pontiff to absolve men even from the most solemn oaths? |
| 14381 | Is it their fault? |
| 14381 | Is it true that, since 1846, the Papal Government has ceased to be the worst in Europe? |
| 14381 | Is not his hand on his hip? |
| 14381 | Is the absolute authority of the Papacy limited in any way but by the individual virtues of the Pope? |
| 14381 | Is the management of public affairs exclusively in the hand of prelates? |
| 14381 | Is there a Council of Ministers? |
| 14381 | Is this because, as with us in France, an equitable law is constantly subdividing large properties? |
| 14381 | Is_ mortmain_ indeed the hand which kills? |
| 14381 | Might he not at least assist the unfortunate peasants who furnish the bread he eats? |
| 14381 | Now which has proved the heaviest scourge-- the_ Oidium_ or the Cardinal Minister? |
| 14381 | Or are we to conclude that they deem it expedient to mask their real sentiments because M. de Rothschild has millions to spare? |
| 14381 | Pray, what position do you assign to your Generals? |
| 14381 | Public works, institutions of credit, police-- But why plunge into such a sea of hopes? |
| 14381 | Shades of the travellers of the olden time-- delicate, subtle, genial spirits-- what think you of conversations such as this? |
| 14381 | Shall our diplomatists repeat in 1859 this same part of dupes? |
| 14381 | The Church, then, winked at a case of bigamy? |
| 14381 | The Romans ask punningly which is the uppermost, the Pope or Antonelli? |
| 14381 | The observation of this worthy man was,"What can you expect? |
| 14381 | Think you he is sufficiently estranged from the things of this world to sacrifice heroically the earth, which is near, to the Heaven, which is remote? |
| 14381 | This being the case, why are not the Roman princes richer than they are? |
| 14381 | To comply with your request, we must spend our income for the benefit of our successors: and what care we for our successors? |
| 14381 | Was it for the sake of giving three millions of men an active and vigorous overseer? |
| 14381 | Were the Piedmontese in the Crimea, then, wanting in the military spirit? |
| 14381 | What are warriors who have never made war?" |
| 14381 | What becomes of independence? |
| 14381 | What becomes of sovereignty?" |
| 14381 | What bounty do you offer to recruits?" |
| 14381 | What could I reply to such reasoning? |
| 14381 | What do they complain of? |
| 14381 | What do you think of our Romans? |
| 14381 | What internal factions has he suppressed? |
| 14381 | What is it but an Association that wastes the revenue of the poor Romans? |
| 14381 | What is the consequence? |
| 14381 | What is the meaning of it all? |
| 14381 | What is the mission of the Pontifical Government? |
| 14381 | What is their rank in the hierarchy?" |
| 14381 | What matters it to the successors of the Apostles that a few workmen and peasants should cut one another''s throats after Sunday Vespers? |
| 14381 | What necessity was there for yielding to our arguments? |
| 14381 | What prince could forgive such aggravated insolence? |
| 14381 | What remonstrances from without has he silenced? |
| 14381 | What then happens? |
| 14381 | What think you of such moderation? |
| 14381 | What was to be done? |
| 14381 | What will Europe ever know about the matter? |
| 14381 | What would be said of the French administration, if people could not get from Versailles to St. Germain without passing through Paris? |
| 14381 | What would become of us if he abandoned us?" |
| 14381 | When he suppressed the Order of the Jesuits, was it to reinforce the army of the Church, or to please his master in France? |
| 14381 | Where are the buyers of these products of the earth? |
| 14381 | Where should we establish our dethroned sovereigns? |
| 14381 | Where would a home be found for Roman Catholic worship? |
| 14381 | Which of the two is in the wrong? |
| 14381 | Whither should I go if Rome were to be turned topsy- turvy? |
| 14381 | Who can tell what events they are destined to witness in their time? |
| 14381 | Who keeps up agitation at Genoa, at Leghorn, and, above all, at Home? |
| 14381 | Who lays waste the forests of the State? |
| 14381 | Who monopolizes their corn, their hemp, their oil? |
| 14381 | Who take possession of the highways, stop diligences, and lay travellers under contribution? |
| 14381 | Who, or what, could induce a man to rush into a career in which there is at a certain point an impassable barrier? |
| 14381 | Whose fault is it? |
| 14381 | Whose fault is this? |
| 14381 | Why seek to conceal from Europe so natural an order of things? |
| 14381 | Why should it follow our advice? |
| 14381 | Why should you not detach a regiment or two to Algeria? |
| 14381 | Will they willingly renounce their political influence? |
| 14381 | You ask them in turn, what epidemic has depopulated the country? |
| 14381 | You have no doubt been told that some people are dissatisfied with the administration: but what of that? |
| 14381 | from Gaeta to re- establish him at the Vatican? |
| 10162 | Is he not the one who embroiled Caesar with Pompey and prevented Pompey from becoming reconciled with Caesar? 10162 ( What else can one say regarding those who fought on both sides than that the Romans were conquered and Caesar was victorious?) 10162 And what is it? 10162 And where did you find this recorded? 10162 Antony made a great deal of fun of him and said:Who will be our arbitrator, if the compact is transgressed in any way?" |
| 10162 | Antony, who has departed to take up the office committed to him by us, or Brutus, who prevents him from setting foot in the country? |
| 10162 | Antony, who keeps our soldiers together, or the soldiers, who have abandoned their commander? |
| 10162 | Because of their experience? |
| 10162 | Because of their number? |
| 10162 | Because of their race? |
| 10162 | But even if you were then silent, tell us now at least: what ought we to have done under the circumstances? |
| 10162 | But is any one unaware how he deceived and imprisoned the Armenian? |
| 10162 | But who even of them has not condemned him? |
| 10162 | But who has not seen the men who have miserably perished at his hands? |
| 10162 | By what help? |
| 10162 | Commit them to another? |
| 10162 | Did you not ruin miserably Catiline, who was overanxious for office, but otherwise guilty of no violence? |
| 10162 | From what other source do you think he has become rich or from what other source great? |
| 10162 | His faithfulness to his allies? |
| 10162 | His liberal treatment of his friends? |
| 10162 | His physical condition? |
| 10162 | His piety toward our gods? |
| 10162 | His reputation with the soldiers? |
| 10162 | His strength of mind? |
| 10162 | How could you, who did not fear the armed warrior, have quailed before the defenceless man? |
| 10162 | How many others are there who purchased numberless articles, no one of whom is blamed? |
| 10162 | How many wars have we won under you as praetor and what kind of territory did we acquire with you as consul? |
| 10162 | In what instance? |
| 10162 | Is it not disgraceful that you should employ heralds and embassies to citizens? |
| 10162 | Is it possible that those who spared not their allies will spare us? |
| 10162 | Is memory lacking of how oppressive the very sight of him was to you, but most of all his deeds? |
| 10162 | Is not he the one who killed Clodius by the hand of Milo, and slew Caesar by the hand of Brutus? |
| 10162 | Leave the legions leaderless? |
| 10162 | Nigidius thereupon exclaimed:"Ah, what hast thou done? |
| 10162 | On what motive? |
| 10162 | On what occasion? |
| 10162 | Or are you vexed that we did not choose you? |
| 10162 | Or what was the harm if a man obtained soldiers during his consulship? |
| 10162 | Or, on the other hand, that the latter erred in enduring at all to look on at and listen to such proceedings? |
| 10162 | Second, if he had been condemned for this, as is said, how could he have escaped punishment? |
| 10162 | Shall we trust his deception when he says that he is not warring against the City? |
| 10162 | Shall we wait for him to secure the prize and still more, and so become a dangerous foe? |
| 10162 | She spoke in melting tones, saying at one time,"Of what avail, Caesar, are these your letters? |
| 10162 | Some one of the assassins, perhaps? |
| 10162 | Some one of the party opposed to them? |
| 10162 | That Caesar acted rightly at that time in accepting neither the name of king nor the diadem? |
| 10162 | That he insults and abuses Antony, whom he was wo nt to say he loved, and coöperates with Caesar, whose father he killed? |
| 10162 | That he will some day render us obedience and pay us respect? |
| 10162 | That when he perceived that turmoil had again arisen, he bade a long farewell to his son and to Athens, and returned? |
| 10162 | The man neither understands how to handle business himself( how or by what means could a person that lives in drunkenness and dicing?) |
| 10162 | The one who made Catiline hostile to us and despatched Lentulus without a trial? |
| 10162 | Well, now, in the first place, how could one man have had so much power? |
| 10162 | What blessing did he possess that would not certainly be jeopardized by rebellion? |
| 10162 | What defence could any one make of what took place? |
| 10162 | What do we expect? |
| 10162 | What does it signify that he is threatening us all alike with arms but in his decree declares he is at war with some and not with others? |
| 10162 | What else, then, is our duty except to fight him back together with Cleopatra? |
| 10162 | What kind of administration would you have given? |
| 10162 | What other end, that he has entered upon campaigns and warfare, when it was in his power to remain at home without danger? |
| 10162 | What other man was there surpassing him in esteem, excelling him in experience? |
| 10162 | What ship ever by itself either wounded or killed anybody? |
| 10162 | What trouble did he have that would have been cured by the change of condition? |
| 10162 | What was there dreadful in the fact that one man was destined to govern Macedonia or Gaul in place of another? |
| 10162 | Where did you learn that this was just, or where did you read that this was lawful? |
| 10162 | Where will any one find a chance to assail ships which carry so many archers and slingers striking assailants, moreover, from the towers up aloft? |
| 10162 | Who can help groaning when he hears Roman knights and senators flattering her like eunuchs? |
| 10162 | Who does not scent your carefully combed gray locks? |
| 10162 | Who is there that does not see these soft clothes of yours? |
| 10162 | Who that has dared to nominate another as tyrant over his country and himself at once would himself refuse to be monarch? |
| 10162 | Who that loved his country or hated tyranny would have committed a single one of the many and manifold offences laid to this man''s charge? |
| 10162 | Who that was really harming the city have you indicted, and who that was really plotting against us have you brought to light? |
| 10162 | Who would privately choose to run risks for the democracy, when he sees that we are publicly resigned to slavery? |
| 10162 | Who, pray, would have dared to undertake to do either? |
| 10162 | Why do we not imitate the rest whom we praise for their sound judgment? |
| 10162 | Why in the world do we not ourselves do the same? |
| 10162 | Why now does he accuse him of preferring one man''s friendship, but acquit himself and the rest who warmly embraced the opposite cause? |
| 10162 | Why should you? |
| 10162 | Why so? |
| 10162 | Why? |
| 10162 | Will they not by their very height and staunchness be more difficult for their rowers to move and less obedient to their pilots? |
| 10162 | Will they show humanity as victors who before victory have committed every conceivable outrage? |
| 10162 | Will those who seized for funds the property of their own adherents refrain from our wealth? |
| 10162 | Would they have failed to fill both Macedonia and Italy with countless evils? |
| 10162 | [ 15] But who should not admire your system of instruction? |
| 10162 | [-10-] What public advantage has been preserved or established by you? |
| 10162 | [-16-]"Why should one follow this line of refutation further? |
| 10162 | [-24-]"Has he then shown himself such a character only in these affairs, while managing the rest rightly? |
| 10162 | [-25-] Who can help lamenting to see Roman soldiers acting as body- guards of their queen? |
| 10162 | [-31-] Did he perchance imitate the famous Horatius of old or Cloelia of bygone days? |
| 10162 | [-35-]"Seeing this, do we delay and give way to weakness and train up so monstrous a tyrant against our own selves? |
| 10162 | [-37-] Who is so silly as to decide whether a man is making war on us or not by his words rather than by his deeds? |
| 10162 | [-40-] Who can be unaware that this very man caused all our internal troubles and then shared the dangers to the slightest possible degree? |
| 10162 | [-44-] Is it not a disgrace that he should not delay to wrong us, but we delay to defend ourselves? |
| 40135 | But how,he says,"can a mind full of trouble clear up such dark meanings? |
| 40135 | But who will assure me that you will ever return? |
| 40135 | Could ye not watch with me one hour? |
| 40135 | Has not the prophet declared his anathema against luxury in dress? 40135 How shall I describe to you,"the writer says,"the little cave of Christ, the hostel of Mary? |
| 40135 | Oh, Romans, are ye consenting to my death? |
| 40135 | What answer can be made to it? 40135 What are these men? |
| 40135 | What make you in your father''s house, oh sluggish soldier? |
| 40135 | When will you have done? |
| 40135 | Who am I,he cries,"to forbid the tears of a mother who myself weep? |
| 40135 | Why are not these detestable monks driven from the city? 40135 Why?" |
| 40135 | With what new thing shall I begin? 40135 You have come to see us-- what is your pleasure?" |
| 40135 | ''What will the Pope say?'' |
| 40135 | A persecutor himself and the son of persecutors, how could the Pope support the cause of Philip? |
| 40135 | And all the fault of the Pope, as who could wonder if the sufferers cried? |
| 40135 | And their country? |
| 40135 | And their king? |
| 40135 | And was it still all heathen that distant land, and unknown rude monarch, and the parents of these angelic children? |
| 40135 | And what could the Pontiff do when they disobeyed and defied him? |
| 40135 | And what need is there for a table ornamented with a rich cover, and laid with knives mounted in ivory, and vases of gold and silver? |
| 40135 | And when you stretch yourself despairing on the grave of your child, the angel who is there asks sternly,''Why seek ye the living among the dead?''" |
| 40135 | And why? |
| 40135 | And will you now let us fly about at random with no mother near us?" |
| 40135 | Are these happy homes? |
| 40135 | Are you not pledged to the sacrifice even of father and mother? |
| 40135 | Are you vexed at my decree, and do you with rebellious tears grudge me the possession of Blæsilla?'' |
| 40135 | At the sound of your cries Jesus, all- clement, asks,''Why do you weep? |
| 40135 | But may not these be lies and my words false? |
| 40135 | But who will say that his dream, too, was not of the noblest or his ideal less magnanimous and great? |
| 40135 | Did he ever feel the contrast between his attempts and his successes? |
| 40135 | Did he ever intend to do more than was done? |
| 40135 | Did she lie there uplifted on her high bier to receive her guests? |
| 40135 | Do not you hear the great bell? |
| 40135 | Do you approve our act? |
| 40135 | Do you approve? |
| 40135 | Do you not know in what anger the people are against you for having disturbed the Buono Stato? |
| 40135 | Does he not know that I am a knight? |
| 40135 | Have I not refused all presents, great or small? |
| 40135 | Have they heard from my lips any doubtful word, or seen in my eyes a bold or hazardous look? |
| 40135 | Have we less need of a Papa Angelico now? |
| 40135 | Have you no fear lest the Saviour should say to you,''Are you angry, Paula, that your daughter has become my daughter? |
| 40135 | He moved his head back and forward, raising himself on his toes, as who would say''Who am I?--I, who may I be?''" |
| 40135 | How can it be said? |
| 40135 | How is an ordinary man to despise wealth in the midst of a society corrupted by it, and in which it is supreme? |
| 40135 | How often did he cry out,''Where are these good Romans? |
| 40135 | If Rome is ruined what hope remains for Italy? |
| 40135 | Is there in all that, I ask, a thought of God? |
| 40135 | Know ye not that all justice and law are in the casket of our bosom? |
| 40135 | No doubt the plan of it, so unusual an appeal to the popular understanding, was Cola''s; but who could the artist be who painted that"similitude"? |
| 40135 | Or was the heart- broken Pammachius the host, standing pale upon the steps, over the grave of the Apostles? |
| 40135 | Peter and Paul? |
| 40135 | That was his jest, could not one see the twinkle in his eye? |
| 40135 | The Pope asked again,''Can you play instruments''(_ sonare_)? |
| 40135 | The Pope, who knew the condition of all who came to him, said,''Can you sing?'' |
| 40135 | The Pope,''I ask can you play(_ tonare_) the organ and the lute?'' |
| 40135 | Then Messer Stefano the elder began a question, which was best in a Ruler of the people, to be prodigal or economical? |
| 40135 | Then the Pope changed his tone and said,''Do you think it is a suitable thing for the Abbot of the venerable monastery of San Paolo to be a buffoon? |
| 40135 | There was one who thought and said,''Stefano, how can you bring your nephew thus to shame?'' |
| 40135 | They believed my accuser when he lied: why do they not believe him when he retracts? |
| 40135 | Was he sore at heart with the long and terrible failure of his efforts? |
| 40135 | Was it a cruel desertion, a heartless abandonment of duty? |
| 40135 | Was it lawful, had it any warrant in law or history, this new folly of opposing marriage and representing celibacy as a happier and holier state? |
| 40135 | Was it some unavowed disappointment, or, more exciting still, some secret intrigue, some low- placed love which she dared not acknowledge? |
| 40135 | Was the young man willing to get space for his smooth ethereal pictures with all their heavenly grace, at such a price? |
| 40135 | Was there ever such a clown?" |
| 40135 | What bitterness of soul lay underneath such an incomprehensible desertion, who could say? |
| 40135 | What can I offer but tears?" |
| 40135 | What can be more vain than to curl the hair, to paint the cheeks, to perfume the person? |
| 40135 | What can be said more? |
| 40135 | What compensation is there in a second marriage to make up for so many woes? |
| 40135 | What could it signify but that in this place he would be made to stay? |
| 40135 | What could they think, all those great prelates looking, no doubt, often askance at each other, brethren in the church, but enemies at home? |
| 40135 | What else was he there for but to glorify the people? |
| 40135 | What matter that the new painter''s master, Perugino, had been there before him with other men of the highest claims? |
| 40135 | What ought we now to do, dear brethren? |
| 40135 | What part is there for the wife in these orgies? |
| 40135 | What was it that Innocent anticipated or feared? |
| 40135 | What was the meaning that lay beneath that brown gown? |
| 40135 | When the Tribune heard these words, he spoke out loudly in a high voice,"What have you to say?" |
| 40135 | Whether he was aware by any premonition of the darker days upon which he had now fallen who can say? |
| 40135 | Who am I, and what is my father''s house, that I should be set over kings, that I should occupy the seat of honour? |
| 40135 | Who can tell? |
| 40135 | Who were they? |
| 40135 | Why is he so proud and so ungrateful towards the Most High, and why does he dare in an insolent address to compare himself to his Creator? |
| 40135 | Will the time never come when a breathless courier will bring us the good news, your Marcella has landed in Palestine? |
| 40135 | Will you have him? |
| 40135 | Will you have this man? |
| 40135 | Withdrawn into a villa had she, into the solitude of a suburban garden, hid from every eye? |
| 40135 | Would a guilty king in these unbelieving days venture upon such a pledge? |
| 40135 | Would not you see Lazarus coming out of his tomb, bound in his shroud? |
| 40135 | Yes, God is with us, who then can be against us? |
| 40135 | You are the salt of the earth: when that salt becomes without savour, with what will you be seasoned? |
| 40135 | You are there as a light on a candlestick that all in the house may see; when that light becomes dark, how thick then is the darkness? |
| 40135 | _ Deh!_ do nothing, I conjure thee, to make me now ask, whence is this great and fatal rumour which strikes my ear so painfully? |
| 40135 | and if Italy is degraded what will become of me? |
| 40135 | and the waters of Jordan purified for the washing of the Lord? |
| 40135 | and who then was the companion of Marcella''s solitude? |
| 40135 | cried that eager voice;"where are your ramparts and trenches, under what tent of skins have you passed the bitter winter? |
| 40135 | how learn to be indifferent to rank and prestige in a city where without these every other claim was trampled under foot? |
| 40135 | might I but have been born in their time?'' |
| 40135 | or were they Nestorians as some suggest? |
| 40135 | to drive the chariots of the sun, to direct everything, to rule everything, to be more than a king, and hold Emperors trembling before him? |
| 40135 | where is their high justice? |
| 40135 | why are they not stoned or thrown into the river? |
| 9497 | ''And the baby?'' |
| 9497 | ''And where is he now?'' |
| 9497 | ''Are they so far up?'' |
| 9497 | ''Are you English, then?'' |
| 9497 | ''Are you also?'' |
| 9497 | ''Are you going over the Gothard?'' |
| 9497 | ''Better than_ I Spettri_?'' |
| 9497 | ''But did n''t you mind giving up all your work?'' |
| 9497 | ''But does that prevent you from marrying?'' |
| 9497 | ''But is it not just the same as managing the shop at home?'' |
| 9497 | ''But it''s fine, is n''t it? |
| 9497 | ''But were n''t you tired?'' |
| 9497 | ''But what,''I asked,''brought you back?'' |
| 9497 | ''But why do they come here, so many?'' |
| 9497 | ''But why so early?'' |
| 9497 | ''But why,''I said,''why do you live alone? |
| 9497 | ''But why,''I said,''why? |
| 9497 | ''Can I go and look at them?'' |
| 9497 | ''Can I have a bed,''I said,''for the night?'' |
| 9497 | ''Did you enjoy it?'' |
| 9497 | ''Do all the Swiss want to serve their time in the army?'' |
| 9497 | ''Do n''t you want to go back?'' |
| 9497 | ''Do you dislike women?'' |
| 9497 | ''Do you want to be shot?'' |
| 9497 | ''Does the steamer stop here all night?'' |
| 9497 | ''English? |
| 9497 | ''Have you been a soldier?'' |
| 9497 | ''How do you write it?'' |
| 9497 | ''How long did you know your Signora before you were married?'' |
| 9497 | ''How long has it taken you to do that much?'' |
| 9497 | ''How long should we have had to wait if we had n''t got through now?'' |
| 9497 | ''I suppose you will rest when you get to London?'' |
| 9497 | ''Is n''t it fine?'' |
| 9497 | ''It''s better like this, two men?'' |
| 9497 | ''May I listen?'' |
| 9497 | ''On foot?'' |
| 9497 | ''The women in America, when they came into the store, they said,"Where is John, where is John?" |
| 9497 | ''Then why ca n''t you marry? |
| 9497 | ''This much? |
| 9497 | ''What are they doing?'' |
| 9497 | ''What do you say?'' |
| 9497 | ''What does the Government do? |
| 9497 | ''What is all the noise?'' |
| 9497 | ''What is he called?'' |
| 9497 | ''What time will you be going on?'' |
| 9497 | ''What will you drink?'' |
| 9497 | ''What woman?'' |
| 9497 | ''What?'' |
| 9497 | ''What?'' |
| 9497 | ''When is the first steamer?'' |
| 9497 | ''Where do you come from?'' |
| 9497 | ''Where have you come from?'' |
| 9497 | ''Where?'' |
| 9497 | ''Which woman is it to be?'' |
| 9497 | ''Why are these Governments always doing what we do n''t want them to do? |
| 9497 | ''Why did you come on foot all down the valley when you could have taken the train? |
| 9497 | ''Why did you do so much?'' |
| 9497 | ''Why live with a woman?'' |
| 9497 | ''Why must he not go out?'' |
| 9497 | ''Why should we have a Government? |
| 9497 | ''Why,''I said,''do n''t you marry? |
| 9497 | ''Why? |
| 9497 | ''Will you have soup and boiled beef and vegetables?'' |
| 9497 | ''Wine or beer?'' |
| 9497 | ''Wo n''t you go back some time?'' |
| 9497 | ''Would you like omelette after the beef?'' |
| 9497 | ''You are Austrian?'' |
| 9497 | ''You are a German?'' |
| 9497 | ''You are coming to your room?'' |
| 9497 | ''You do n''t look forward to it?'' |
| 9497 | ''You live quite alone?'' |
| 9497 | ''_ Couvre- toi de gloire, Tartarin-- couvre- toi de flanelle._''Why should it please me so that his cloak is of red flannel? |
| 9497 | ''_ Quanto costa l''uva?_''were my first words in the south. |
| 9497 | ''_ Voyez, monsieur-- cet-- cet-- qu''est- ce que-- qu''est- ce que veut dire cet-- cela?_''He shows me the paper. |
| 9497 | ''_ È bello-- il ballo?_''he asked at length, one direct, flashing question. |
| 9497 | After all, why should I not eat, after the long walk? |
| 9497 | Am I greater than he, am I stronger than he? |
| 9497 | And I wondered, Why am I here, on this ridge of the Alps, in the lamp- lit, wooden, close- shut room, alone? |
| 9497 | And for what? |
| 9497 | And how much had they cost? |
| 9497 | And how much has that old imperial vanity clung to the German soul? |
| 9497 | And what is the rest, that which is- not the tiger, that which the tiger is- not? |
| 9497 | And yet, was she not herself finished in this work? |
| 9497 | Between the clerical party and the radicals and the socialists, what canons were left that were absolute? |
| 9497 | But I said in German:''May I look?'' |
| 9497 | But I, what am I? |
| 9497 | But do you live in Switzerland?'' |
| 9497 | But how does it come to pass in Christ? |
| 9497 | But is there nothing else? |
| 9497 | But the maestra came inflammably on that Thursday evening, and were we not going to the theatre, to see_ Amleto_? |
| 9497 | But the vine-- one crop--?'' |
| 9497 | Did not the German kings inherit the empire of bygone Rome? |
| 9497 | Do I know a consummation in the Infinite, I, the prey, beyond the tiger who devours me? |
| 9497 | Does it pass away, or does it only lose its pristine quality? |
| 9497 | Has the creature no sense? |
| 9497 | Have I only the negative ecstasy of being devoured, of becoming thus part of the Lord, the Great Moloch, the superb and terrible God? |
| 9497 | How can he know anything about being and not- being when he is only a maudlin compromise between them, and all he wants is to be a maudlin compromise? |
| 9497 | How could she be conscious of herself when all was herself? |
| 9497 | I asked him,''Used you to think of it, the lake, the Monte Baldo, the laurel trees down the slope?'' |
| 9497 | I did not dare to say,''Am I so far down?'' |
| 9497 | I forget everything except I will kill him--''''But you did n''t?'' |
| 9497 | If not, what, then, is being? |
| 9497 | Is there an affirmation, behind my negation, other than the tiger''s affirmation of his own glorious infinity? |
| 9497 | It is two years that I have not spoke, not a word-- so, you see, I have--''''You have forgotten it? |
| 9497 | It makes us work, it takes part of our wages away from us, it makes us soldiers-- and what for? |
| 9497 | O-- Nicoletta, where is the Giovann''?'' |
| 9497 | On Christmas Day the padrone came in with the key of his box, and would we care to see the drama? |
| 9497 | She is twice my age, but what is age in such circumstances? |
| 9497 | Should one ever go down to the lower world? |
| 9497 | That his body was in California, what did it matter? |
| 9497 | The boy comes to me and says:''Do you know, Signore, what they are singing?'' |
| 9497 | The issue, is it eternal not- being? |
| 9497 | The kingdom of the world had no significance: what could one do but wander about? |
| 9497 | The landlord came--''And bread?'' |
| 9497 | The landlord turned to us with the usual naïve, curious deference, and the usual question:''You are Germans?'' |
| 9497 | They argue among themselves for a moment: will the Signoria understand? |
| 9497 | To be or not to be King, Father, in the Self supreme? |
| 9497 | To be perfect, to be one with God, to be infinite and eternal, what shall we do? |
| 9497 | Was it worth it?'' |
| 9497 | What can be so fiercely gleaming when all is shadowy? |
| 9497 | What did they want when they came together, Paolo and she? |
| 9497 | What does a Government mean? |
| 9497 | What is government for?'' |
| 9497 | What is he brooding, then? |
| 9497 | What is it that he secretly yearns for, amid all the placidity of fate? |
| 9497 | What is that which parted ways with the terrific eagle- like angel of the senses at the Renaissance? |
| 9497 | What is the Oneness to which I subscribe, I who offer no resistance in the flesh? |
| 9497 | What is the reason? |
| 9497 | What is this Government? |
| 9497 | What is this? |
| 9497 | What should he choose for his great occasion, this broad, thick- set, ruddy descendant of the peasant proprietors of the plain? |
| 9497 | What then of her young breasts and her womb? |
| 9497 | What then, if a man come to me with a sword, to kill me, and I do not resist him, but suffer his sword and the death from his sword, what am I? |
| 9497 | What was all his courage but the very tip- top of cowardice? |
| 9497 | What, then, is being? |
| 9497 | What_ is_ the consummation in Christ? |
| 9497 | Where is the transcendent knowledge in our hearts, uniting sun and darkness, day and night, spirit and senses? |
| 9497 | Wherein am I perfect in this submission? |
| 9497 | Wherein are we superior? |
| 9497 | Who wants it? |
| 9497 | Why am I here? |
| 9497 | Why are the women so bad at playing this part in real life, this Ophelia- Gretchen role? |
| 9497 | Why are they so unwilling to go mad and die for our sakes? |
| 9497 | Why must you live alone?'' |
| 9497 | Why not? |
| 9497 | Why was I getting out at this wayside place, on to the great, raw high- road? |
| 9497 | Will he ever find himself in prison? |
| 9497 | Yet what should become of the world? |
| 8425 | Am I to be frightened,he said, in answer to some report of the haruspices,"because a sheep is without a heart?" |
| 8425 | And whom do you want to go? |
| 8425 | As to his followers, how can men govern provinces who can not manage their own affairs for two months together? 8425 I did not accompany Pompey when he went himself? |
| 8425 | Is there hope of peace? |
| 8425 | What care I,he said,"for life or country if I am to hold both by the favor of Caesar? |
| 8425 | Who does not know,Cicero asked,"that the avarice of our generals has been the cause of the misfortunes of our armies? |
| 8425 | Who wants to go to Alexandria? |
| 8425 | Why did you ask for a guard? |
| 8425 | Will you then,asked Caesar,"support the law if it be illegally opposed?" |
| 8425 | 11):"Quid? |
| 8425 | Ab ipso autem? |
| 8425 | Aliter sensero?" |
| 8425 | Am I to change my mind? |
| 8425 | And what then? |
| 8425 | And who are the best men? |
| 8425 | Are we to depend on our slaves and freedmen?.... |
| 8425 | Are we to hire mercenaries? |
| 8425 | Aut quid refert utrum voluerim fieri an gaudeam factum? |
| 8425 | But how if they would not go? |
| 8425 | But how was Caesar to join them? |
| 8425 | But then the question rose, who should be the happy person who was to be the instrument of his reinstatement? |
| 8425 | But was Cleopatra at Rome at all? |
| 8425 | But was Pompey''s the safe side? |
| 8425 | But what happened? |
| 8425 | But what pleasure can a sensible person find in seeing a clumsy performer torn by a wild beast, or a noble animal pierced with a hunting- spear? |
| 8425 | But what remedy was possible? |
| 8425 | But what then? |
| 8425 | But what was to be thought of the prospects of a society in which such phenomena were developing themselves? |
| 8425 | But which of the soldiers sang these verses? |
| 8425 | By whom, he asked, could such an attempt be made? |
| 8425 | Catiline went; and what was to follow next? |
| 8425 | Cicero says that Clodius revived Catiline''s faction; but what was Catiline''s faction? |
| 8425 | Clodius, pale with anger, called out,"Who is murdering the people with famine?" |
| 8425 | Contra Caesarem? |
| 8425 | Does Suetonius mean that the army sang them in chorus as they marched in procession? |
| 8425 | Ecquis est igitur te excepto et iis qui illum regnare gaudebant, qui illud aut fieri noluerit, aut factum improbarit? |
| 8425 | Fight for what? |
| 8425 | Had not he, a mere country gentleman''s son, risen under it to wealth and consideration? |
| 8425 | Has he not a good cause? |
| 8425 | He will restore the constitution, you say, but when? |
| 8425 | How are they to go without an escort, or how return? |
| 8425 | How came Cicero to be ignorant of an act which, if done at all, was done under his own eyes? |
| 8425 | How can we praise, how can we love you sufficiently? |
| 8425 | How can you put up with such a state of things? |
| 8425 | How if from the soil of Rome, under the rule of his friends the Senate, fresh crops of such youths would rise perennially? |
| 8425 | How if he should be defeated by Metellus Scipio? |
| 8425 | How if he should be killed in Alexandria? |
| 8425 | How shall I avoid displeasing Caesar? |
| 8425 | How would these splendid successes affect parties? |
| 8425 | How would they affect Pompey? |
| 8425 | How would, they affect the Senate? |
| 8425 | I saw from the first that Pompey only thought of flight: if I now follow him, whither are we to go? |
| 8425 | If it was not to be thrown into the Tiber, what was to be done with it? |
| 8425 | If not, was it to be conceived that they were afraid? |
| 8425 | If not, where will he go, and how and what are his plans? |
| 8425 | If the war hangs on, how long am I to wait? |
| 8425 | If to these perils be added a nefarious conspiracy, to what god can we turn for help? |
| 8425 | In Gaul the war paid its own expenses; but what temples were there in Gaul which were worth spoiling? |
| 8425 | Is a person who has been his country''s greatest benefactor, and has been rewarded by envy and ill usage, to volunteer into danger for such a party? |
| 8425 | Is it right to make war on one''s country for the sake of liberty? |
| 8425 | Is not Picenum lost? |
| 8425 | Is not our money, public and private, all the enemy''s? |
| 8425 | Is not the road open to the city? |
| 8425 | Is violence to be again answered by more violence? |
| 8425 | Kill him? |
| 8425 | Let us forget all this: but what was ever more disgraceful than the flight from Rome? |
| 8425 | Marcellus, the consul, a few days later, put the question in the Senate: Was Caesar to be recalled? |
| 8425 | May he not retire, and live quietly with his family, and leave public affairs to their fate? |
| 8425 | Need I speak of your feasting, your laughter, and handshakings-- your drunken orgies with the filthy companions of your potations? |
| 8425 | Now when I am not even ambitious of power, and the constitution is broken down, and Pompey is omnipotent, why should I contend with him? |
| 8425 | Ought I to expose myself to the danger, and perhaps disgrace, which would lie before me, should Pompey recover his position? |
| 8425 | Ought a man to use any means to overthrow a tyranny, though he may ruin his country in doing it? |
| 8425 | Ought he not rather to try to mend matters by argument as opportunity offers? |
| 8425 | Quid enim interest inter suasorem facti et approbatorem? |
| 8425 | Quod enim fanum putatis in illis terris nostris magistratibus religiosum, quam civitatem sanctam, quam domum satis clausam ac munitam fuisse? |
| 8425 | Resist by force? |
| 8425 | Selling themselves to Caesar? |
| 8425 | Shall I go against Caesar? |
| 8425 | Shall I turn my coat, and join the victors? |
| 8425 | Should a man adhere at all risks to one party, though he considers them on the whole to have been a set of fools? |
| 8425 | Submit to what Pompey calls an impudent demand? |
| 8425 | Tell me the truth, Was it the matter which did not please him, or the style?" |
| 8425 | The word will be,''Sylla could do thus and thus; and why should not I?'' |
| 8425 | They are afraid, are they? |
| 8425 | To Cilicia? |
| 8425 | To Parthia? |
| 8425 | To what part of it should he go? |
| 8425 | Ubi illae sunt densae dexterae? |
| 8425 | Wait till I have consulted Atticus? |
| 8425 | Was Cato right, or were the gods right? |
| 8425 | Was Pompey to be deprived of his province? |
| 8425 | Was it that he was deliberately trying to persuade Caesar that from the Senate he had nothing to fear, and so to put him off his guard? |
| 8425 | Was the will to be read and recognized? |
| 8425 | Well, then, which is the worst of the remaining alternatives? |
| 8425 | What am I to do? |
| 8425 | What are they about now? |
| 8425 | What conditions would not have been preferable? |
| 8425 | What could any one wish for more? |
| 8425 | What does it matter whether I wished it to be done, or rejoiced that it was done? |
| 8425 | What had so great a man as he to fear from a young reprobate like"the pretty boy"? |
| 8425 | What honors will they not heap upon him? |
| 8425 | What if I can make Caesar better also, who is now coming on with wind and tide? |
| 8425 | What must I answer? |
| 8425 | What receptions will they not give him? |
| 8425 | What shall I do? |
| 8425 | What should he do himself? |
| 8425 | What was Cicero to do? |
| 8425 | What was to be done next? |
| 8425 | What was to happen when it had expired? |
| 8425 | What will history say of me six hundred years hence? |
| 8425 | What will you do then? |
| 8425 | What, then, is the evidence? |
| 8425 | What, think you, will he be now? |
| 8425 | When they say to me, Marcus Tullius, what do you think? |
| 8425 | When would Pompey come? |
| 8425 | Where are Pompey''s resources? |
| 8425 | Where are your laws? |
| 8425 | Where is the sacredness of your life? |
| 8425 | Where, Caesar, is your love for mankind? |
| 8425 | Who are these optimates, that insist that I must leave Italy, while they remain? |
| 8425 | Who in those days saw you ever sober, or doing anything that a citizen need not be ashamed of? |
| 8425 | Who would dream of introducing into a serious life of Nelson catches chanted in the forecastle of the"Victory"? |
| 8425 | Why did not I follow Pompey when things were at their worst? |
| 8425 | Why was Ptolemy to be forced on them? |
| 8425 | Will he keep his army beyond the time for which the people gave it to him, in despite of the Senate? |
| 8425 | Will that be so bad a thing? |
| 8425 | Will you have a fool''s opinion? |
| 8425 | Would the war now end? |
| 8425 | Yet Caesar had been a priest from his boyhood, and why should he not be Pope? |
| 8425 | Yet how could it be prevented? |
| 8425 | You can see for yourselves how they act here at home in Italy; and what will they not venture far away in distant countries? |
| 8425 | Your work is unfinished: the foundations are hardly laid, and is it for you to be measuring calmly your term of days by your own desires?... |
| 8425 | [ 11] But how if Caesar himself should not survive? |
| 8425 | [ 16]"I have not met one man,"Cicero said,"who does not think it would be better to make concessions to Caesar than to fight him.--Why fight now? |
| 8425 | [ 16]"Non intelligis, si i d quod me arguis voluisse interfici Caesarem crimen sit, etiam laetatum esse morte Caesaris crimen esse? |
| 8425 | [ 17]"Ought a man to remain in his country after it has fallen under a tyranny? |
| 8425 | [ 18] What will our optimates say, if we have any optimates left? |
| 8425 | [ 18]"Caesaris potentiam suam esse dicebat.... An consules in praetore coercendo fortes fuissent? |
| 8425 | [ 1]"Nunc quis patrem decem annorum natus non modo aufert sed tollit nisi veneno?" |
| 8425 | [ 1]"What does Caesar say of my poems?" |
| 8425 | [ 3] Why did not somebody kill him? |
| 8425 | [ 5] But how would Pompey appear? |
| 8425 | [ 6]"Quem possumus imperatorem aliquo in numero putare, cujus in exercitu veneant centuriatus atque venierint? |
| 8425 | [ 7] Gudrund? |
| 8425 | and was not his own rise a sufficient evidence that there was no real injustice? |
| 8425 | by what means? |
| 8425 | old Catulus growled to the judges:"was it that the money you have received might not be taken from you?" |
| 8425 | or how came Catiline to have a faction which survived him? |
| 8425 | or rather, would it be safe to go against him? |
| 8425 | to Armenia? |
| 8425 | to Syria? |
| 8945 | Ah,says one to him,"when did you leave Rome? |
| 8945 | As it is written,says Cicero,"in a style inferior to that which is usual to me, can it not be shown not to have been mine? |
| 8945 | Did you think that I did not write because I am angry, or that I did not wish to see you? 8945 Do you not know that our Cicero has been Quæstor at Syracuse?" |
| 8945 | Have you seen our Cicero''s paper on agriculture? 8945 How am I to ask you to come to me?" |
| 8945 | Of course you know the art- criticism in the_ Times_ this year is Tully''s doing? |
| 8945 | So the political article in the_ Quarterly_ is Cicero''s? |
| 8945 | What''s Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba? |
| 8945 | What,he says, in opening his argument,"does it become me, a Tullius, to do for this other Tullius, a man not only my friend, but my namesake?" |
| 8945 | Why did not somebody kill him? |
| 8945 | Would you charge any one as a thief? 8945 *** Quis ergo intererat vestris consiliis? 8945 :Cur igitur cos manumisit? |
| 8945 | After all, where would the Greeks of Asia be if they had no Roman master to afford them protection? |
| 8945 | Am I to consider an individual when the Republic is at stake? |
| 8945 | And how would history tell the story in future ages? |
| 8945 | And if he have, do we not know how lies will come to the tongue of a man without thought of lying? |
| 8945 | And if he have, how many are entitled by pure innocence in that matter to throw a stone at him? |
| 8945 | And if he have, how often has he told the truth? |
| 8945 | And if we are to have liberty to exclude without evidence, where are we to stop? |
| 8945 | And on what evidence? |
| 8945 | And what, he asks, would the men of our party,"the optimates,"say? |
| 8945 | Are you able to expose the life of Verres, as it must be done, to divide it into parts and make everything clear? |
| 8945 | But in what country-- the millennium not having arrived in any-- has this been achieved? |
| 8945 | But of the method in which this Triumvirate was constructed, who has an idea? |
| 8945 | But what can you say for him? |
| 8945 | But what if Cicero was ambitious for the good of others, while these men had desired power only for themselves? |
| 8945 | But why did he write so piteously when he was driven into exile? |
| 8945 | Clodius insidias fecit Miloni? |
| 8945 | Could he so fill the minds of the citizens generally with horror at such proceedings as to make them earnest in demanding reform? |
| 8945 | Could it not be denied? |
| 8945 | Could such a one as Catiline answer such a one as Cethegus? |
| 8945 | Did Atticus quarrel with him? |
| 8945 | Do you ask me whether you are to go into exile? |
| 8945 | Do you hesitate to do at my command that which you would fain do yourself? |
| 8945 | Have you brought a man up for malice or cruelty? |
| 8945 | Have you called a man a seducer or an adulterer? |
| 8945 | Have you got voice for it, prudence, memory, wit? |
| 8945 | Have you not been exempted from your tax on corn? |
| 8945 | Have you not been exempted in regard to naval and military recruits? |
| 8945 | Have you not been the receptacle of all his stolen goods? |
| 8945 | Have you not even stolen the statue of Jupiter Imperator, so sacred in the eyes of all men-- that Jupiter which the Greeks call Ourios? |
| 8945 | He is writing from one of his villas to his friend in Rome, and asks for the news of the day: Who are to be the new consuls? |
| 8945 | He probably had been engaged in murders-- as how should a man not have been so who had served under Sulla during the Dictatorship? |
| 8945 | He turns to Cato and asks him questions, which he answers himself with his own philosophy:"Would you pardon nothing? |
| 8945 | How can he write anything requiring leisure in such a condition as this? |
| 8945 | How did Glaucia hear of the murder so quickly? |
| 8945 | How do I interfere with you? |
| 8945 | How else shall any wreck of the Republic be preserved? |
| 8945 | How had it come to pass that Cæsar had the power of suddenly causing an edict to become law, whether for good or for evil? |
| 8945 | How shall a patriot do the work of his country unless he be in high place? |
| 8945 | How should the great Rome of his day rise to greater power than ever, and yet be as poor as in the days of her comparative insignificance? |
| 8945 | How was it first suggested, where, and by whom? |
| 8945 | If a man stand but five feet eleven inches in his shoes, shall he be called a pygmy? |
| 8945 | If for the sake of hatred, what hatred can you feel against him of whose land you have taken possession before you had even known him? |
| 8945 | If so, how can we wonder that Sulla, who has to rule the State, to govern, in fact, the world, should not be able himself to see to everything? |
| 8945 | If that was so, why should any accusation have been made? |
| 8945 | In what do I oppose you? |
| 8945 | In what do you think that I shall hurt you? |
| 8945 | Is it your wish to kill a man for the sake of plunder? |
| 8945 | Is that an affair of ours? |
| 8945 | Is the opinion, then, of your enemies of greater weight than that of your fellow- citizens, or is it the greater credibility of the witnesses? |
| 8945 | Is there a parson, a bishop, an archbishop, who, if he have any sense of humor about him, does not do the same? |
| 8945 | Might he best hope a return to that state of things which he thought good for his country by adhering to Cæsar or to Pompey? |
| 8945 | Must I then live without you? |
| 8945 | Need there be no skill in the business, no habit of speaking, no familiarity with the Forum, with the judgment- seats, and the laws? |
| 8945 | No doubt these are wailings; but is a man unmanly because he so wails to the wife of his bosom? |
| 8945 | Quis igitur hoc homine scientior umquam aut fuit, aut esse debuit? |
| 8945 | Quod denique genus belli esse potest, in quo illum non exercuerit fortuna reipublicæ? |
| 8945 | The language in each case is perfect; but what other Roman was there of whom we have evidence that he spoke to his wife like this? |
| 8945 | The two slaves who had been with the old man when he was killed, surely they might tell something? |
| 8945 | Unless it might be in the idle month of February, when would a man so idle, so debauched, show himself in the Senate- house? |
| 8945 | Was it not your duty to have built a ship for the Republic? |
| 8945 | What cause to travel all through the night? |
| 8945 | What do you want more? |
| 8945 | What has the one thing to do with the other? |
| 8945 | What if he did so-- for an hour? |
| 8945 | What if they could be got to go back suddenly to their homes, and bring a legion of red- haired Gauls to assist the conspirators in burning down Rome? |
| 8945 | What insight have we into the personality of Alexander the Great, or what insight had Plutarch, who wrote about him? |
| 8945 | What is Cicero to us of the nineteenth century that we should care so much for him as to read yet another book? |
| 8945 | What nature of warfare is there in which the Republic has not used his services? |
| 8945 | What news have you brought?" |
| 8945 | What other course is there? |
| 8945 | What was it that the conspirators combined to do? |
| 8945 | What was not within the power of such a leader of soldiers? |
| 8945 | What will be said of me in history by my citizens if I now do simply that which may best suit my own happiness? |
| 8945 | What will you do in this case? |
| 8945 | When did those virtues shine by which her power was founded? |
| 8945 | When was that wisdom best exhibited from which came her capacity for ruling? |
| 8945 | When would he dare, or when would he care, to come among us? |
| 8945 | Which was the better way for such a one as Cæsar to go? |
| 8945 | Who among men has been free from such blame since history and the lives of men were first written? |
| 8945 | Who is to have the vacant augurship? |
| 8945 | Who should receive them but Atticus, that"alter ego?" |
| 8945 | Why did he talk of suicide as though by that he might find the easiest way of escape? |
| 8945 | Why do you persecute me further? |
| 8945 | Why do you refuse? |
| 8945 | Why should a man do right if it be not for a reward here or hereafter? |
| 8945 | Why should any accusation have been made unless there was clear evidence as to guilt? |
| 8945 | Why should anything be right-- or wrong? |
| 8945 | Why was it necessary that Capito should know all about it at once? |
| 8945 | Why, at any rate, did he turn upon his chosen friend and scold him, as though that friend had not done enough for friendship? |
| 8945 | Would Clodius be able to rouse a mob against him? |
| 8945 | Would not his case have been more piteous, a source of more righteous indignation, than that even of the Mores or Raleighs? |
| 8945 | Would you be another Cato, useless and impractical? |
| 8945 | Would you do nothing for friendship? |
| 8945 | Would you never be moved to pity? |
| 8945 | Would you rather believe these Gauls-- led by what feeling? |
| 8945 | [ 162] But in such a poor science as that of law what honor can there be? |
| 8945 | [ 68]"You had better tell the truth now, my friend: Was it so and so?" |
| 8945 | and how shall he achieve that place except by co- operation with those whom he trusts? |
| 8945 | and what would Cato say, whose opinion is more to me than that of them all? |
| 8945 | and, if so, would Cæsar assist Clodius? |
| 8945 | as to those practices of the profession without which an action such as this can not be carried on, do you think that there is nothing in them? |
| 8945 | has not the image of Aristæus been taken by you from the temple of Bacchus? |
| 8945 | i., 1:"Non itineribus tuis perterreri homines? |
| 8945 | ii., 1:"Quid quæris?" |
| 8945 | ineunte adolescentia maximi ipse exercitus imperator? |
| 8945 | non adventu commoveri? |
| 8945 | non sumptu exhauriri? |
| 8945 | or would Pompey who still loomed to his eyes as the larger of the two men? |
| 8945 | plura bella gessit, quam cæteri legerunt? |
| 8945 | plures provincias confecit, quam alii concupiverunt? |
| 8945 | qui e ludo, atque pueritiæ disciplina, bello maximo atque acerrimis hostibus, ad patris exercitum atque in militiæ disciplinam profectus est? |
| 8945 | qui extrema pueritia miles fuit summi imperatoris? |
| 8945 | qui sæpius cum hoste conflixit, quam quisquam cum inimico concertavit? |
| 10907 | But why do I argue thus, as if the cause of the patricians, respecting the priesthood, were untouched? 10907 For how could Hasdrubal and Mago bring up their troops without opposition, unless they had terminated their part of the war? |
| 10907 | For what,said he,"did the boy Hieronymus ever do of his own accord? |
| 10907 | For why,said they,"did not those who sent for them come themselves, since there would be equal facility of forming a junction? |
| 10907 | Is it to be borne,said he,"that a mongrel African should impose restraints upon me, a Carthaginian general, commissioned by the senate and people?" |
| 10907 | Shall we even be blockaded,said he,"in our camp, and die, with ignominy, by famine, rather than bravely by the sword, if it must be so? |
| 10907 | A short time ago, what was it that gave victory to Caius Lutatius but expedition? |
| 10907 | All turned their thoughts towards arms and war,[ and the general cry was,]"When shall we be permitted with arms in our hands to meet the Samnites?" |
| 10907 | An unwarlike and unarmed multitude, shall I suppose? |
| 10907 | And how most recently we sent him hence to lay siege to Rome? |
| 10907 | And might not the same Publius Decius have been, with propriety, chosen to perform the public worship of the Roman people? |
| 10907 | And though other assistance be wanting, will you have the hardihood to strike me when I oppose my body in defence of Hannibal''s? |
| 10907 | And what is there left,"said he,"to a handful of men, surrounded by a multitude, in a valley hemmed in by a wood and mountains, except death? |
| 10907 | Another would say,"Whither, or by what way can we go? |
| 10907 | Are we afraid that the son of Hamilcar should be too late in seeing the immoderate power and splendour of his father''s sovereignty? |
| 10907 | Are we then desirous that the Roman people should have and equip a fleet? |
| 10907 | Are you unacquainted with the enemy, or with yourselves, or with the fortune of either nation? |
| 10907 | But though they had not courage to sally forth from the camp, had they courage to defend it strenuously? |
| 10907 | But what ground was now unsurmountable to Roman valour?" |
| 10907 | But who is there among you, who has promised that he would open the gates to me, and receive my armed troops within the city? |
| 10907 | But why do I call on you, who, with as much regard to faith as you are able to show, return yourself a prisoner into the hands of the conqueror? |
| 10907 | But why do I charge those men with cowardice, when I might tax them with villany? |
| 10907 | But why not compare the success of one general with that of another? |
| 10907 | Can a citizen? |
| 10907 | Can our country regret such citizens as these, whom if all the rest resembled, she would not have one citizen of all those who fought at Cannae? |
| 10907 | Can the enemy? |
| 10907 | Can we order a supply of infantry, as if we had any cavalry? |
| 10907 | Can we say we are deficient in money, as if that were the only thing we wanted? |
| 10907 | Could I conciliate Hannibal to my son, and not my son to Hannibal? |
| 10907 | Decius, calling aloud,"Whither were they flying, or what hope could they have in running away?" |
| 10907 | Did not the people create him with the fullest privileges with which any censor ever was created? |
| 10907 | Did the latter perform his private acts of adoration with a purer mind, or worship the gods more religiously than he? |
| 10907 | Do the Roman people disapprove of their legions being saved by an ignominious peace? |
| 10907 | Do we expect to remove the mountains from their foundations? |
| 10907 | Do you doubt, therefore, whether by remaining quiet we shall not conquer him who is daily sinking into decrepitude? |
| 10907 | Do you mean to say, Appius, that the people are not bound by the Aemilian law? |
| 10907 | Do you then, conscript fathers, pardon yourselves and your children, while you exercise severity towards such insignificant persons as we are? |
| 10907 | Do you want courage to effect your preservation? |
| 10907 | Do you wish to make trial of our valour by sea, by land, in a pitched battle, or in the assault of towns? |
| 10907 | Does Marcellus now a second time with impunity assail us with a band of raw recruits and Nolan auxiliaries? |
| 10907 | For from what source could they procure rowers, when there was no money in the treasury? |
| 10907 | For what more could possibly be done towards appeasing the gods, and softening the anger of men, than we have done? |
| 10907 | For what part had ye, conscript fathers; what part had the people, in this affair? |
| 10907 | For who will protect them? |
| 10907 | For why should there be any longer protraction or waste of time? |
| 10907 | For, on going out to receive him, when they had scarcely exchanged salutations, he said,"Is all well, Lucius Volumnius? |
| 10907 | For, setting aside only the splendour of the Roman name, what remains in which they can be compared to you? |
| 10907 | Have the Romans sent any ambassadors to Hannibal to treat of peace? |
| 10907 | Have you already forgotten at what a juncture we revolted from the Romans, and what were their circumstances? |
| 10907 | Have you forgotten how at the time of the revolt we put to death, with torture and indignity, their garrison, which might have been sent out? |
| 10907 | Have you, in short, ever heard that any mention has been made of peace at Rome?" |
| 10907 | Having endured a siege for several days and nights, did they protect their rampart by their arms, and themselves by their rampart? |
| 10907 | He said,"Why do I any longer defer the fate entailed on my family? |
| 10907 | How could he, by his sole resistance, benefit the republic, unless his death would remedy the public disasters? |
| 10907 | How long before the walls of Geronium, a miserable fortress of Apulia, as if before the walls of Carthage--? |
| 10907 | How many Roman commanders might I name who never lost a battle? |
| 10907 | How many fleets, generals, and armies were lost in the former war? |
| 10907 | How often, and with determined hostility, we have sallied out against them when besieging us, and assaulted their camp? |
| 10907 | How safe, think you, would a passage have been for nearly two legions? |
| 10907 | How stand affairs in Samnium? |
| 10907 | How was it that his brother had not opposed his progress or followed on his rear? |
| 10907 | How we invited Hannibal to come and cut them off? |
| 10907 | In the next place, has any individual of the five and thirty tribes deserted to Hannibal?" |
| 10907 | In what manner standing in the way of liberty or the laws? |
| 10907 | Is it a small thing that you take away my most ancient provinces Sicily and Sardinia? |
| 10907 | Is it that the steel hath lost its edge? |
| 10907 | Now, when their aim was Rome, the capital of the world, could any thing appear so dangerous or difficult as to delay their undertaking? |
| 10907 | On the other hand, if he persisted in preferring to hold out against the siege, what hope could he have, shut up as he was by sea and land?" |
| 10907 | Or is yours an excepted case, in which this peculiarity and singularity takes place? |
| 10907 | Or shall I compare with it the defeat in Africa under which this same Hannibal afterwards sunk? |
| 10907 | Or will you fill up the vacancy with another colleague, a proceeding not allowable, even in the case of the death of a censor? |
| 10907 | Or, that the people are bound, and you alone exempted? |
| 10907 | Shall we be able then to withstand three generals and three armies, whom Cneius Scipio with his army unimpaired could not withstand? |
| 10907 | Shall we, therefore, some one will say, deliver up Hannibal? |
| 10907 | Shall you return by purchase to that degree which you have forfeited by cowardice and neglect? |
| 10907 | Some of the Arpinians and Romans recognised each other, which led to conversations, in which the Romans asked them, what it was they meant? |
| 10907 | Spurius Postumius, if you believe that there are gods, why do you not undo all that has been done, or fulfil your agreement? |
| 10907 | Still he persisted in his opposition, asking,"To what purpose were laws enacted, if they eluded by the very persons who procured them? |
| 10907 | The Roman, whom Claudium, whom Cannae, did not crush, what line of battle could crush? |
| 10907 | The matrons, wandering through the streets, ask all they meet, what sudden disaster was reported? |
| 10907 | The only question is, whether he took this route to the city, or returned by it from the city into Campania? |
| 10907 | The people having been asked according to this form: Do ye will and order that this thing should be performed in this manner? |
| 10907 | Then what soldier is comparable to the Roman in the throwing up of works? |
| 10907 | They said"that they had created indeed two consuls, that they had but one; for what regular authority had the other, or what auspices? |
| 10907 | To the armed soldier, carrying nothing with him but the instruments of war, what in reality was impervious or insurmountable? |
| 10907 | Was there any danger that the gods would give less attention to his prayers than to those of Appius Claudius? |
| 10907 | Were they passable by a few men and impassable to armies? |
| 10907 | What arbitrator shall I call in to judge of your resentment, and of my punishment? |
| 10907 | What could he do who had scarce as yet arrived at puberty? |
| 10907 | What danger could arise to any one from them, from a solitary, and in a manner, widowed woman and girls living in a state of orphanage? |
| 10907 | What else are the Trebia, the Trasimenus, and Cannae, but monuments of Roman armies and consuls slain? |
| 10907 | What else would you ask had you been plundered and stripped of your camp? |
| 10907 | What else would you ask if you had been conquered? |
| 10907 | What greater outrage could have been committed had Capua been captured? |
| 10907 | What more, Roman, do I owe to thee? |
| 10907 | What motive induced you to remove out of your province?" |
| 10907 | What must have been the consequence, if his love of wine had daily become more intense? |
| 10907 | What the eyes of all intent on him alone? |
| 10907 | What third consul, what other army did they wait for? |
| 10907 | What those so many right hands? |
| 10907 | What will that numerous throng of freemen and slaves be doing? |
| 10907 | What would you do if you had to die for your country? |
| 10907 | What? |
| 10907 | Where is that soldier of mine, who took off the head of Caius Flaminius, the consul, after dragging him from his horse? |
| 10907 | Where is the man who slew Lucius Paulus at Cannae? |
| 10907 | Whether do I appear, while declining the contest, to have fallen in unexpectedly with this dreaded foe, or encounter him in his track? |
| 10907 | While these cliffs hang over us, by what road will you reach the enemy? |
| 10907 | Who can call upon you? |
| 10907 | Who can say, that he has been deceived by you? |
| 10907 | Who then, do you think, would be content with a dictatorship of six months? |
| 10907 | Whom would you, with confidence, create dictator, for the purpose of driving the nail, or of exhibiting games? |
| 10907 | Why had they disturbed him, at that time of his life, if they intended to give the management of the war to another?" |
| 10907 | Why not attack the cities and fortified places? |
| 10907 | Why should I bring instances from antiquity? |
| 10907 | Why should I mention what has occurred in this present war? |
| 10907 | Will they be torpid amidst your madness? |
| 10907 | Will they call to their succour an army from Veii, with Camillus at its head? |
| 10907 | Will ye never want an excuse for not standing to the compacts which ye make on being defeated? |
| 10907 | Will you be able to bear the look of Hannibal himself, which armed hosts can not sustain, from which the Roman people shrink with horror? |
| 10907 | Will you singly attack Hannibal? |
| 10907 | Would I return to my country, a citizen, and not considered worth three hundred denarii? |
| 10907 | and as if we were not already in possession of one sacerdotal office, of the highest class? |
| 10907 | and how, without fleets, could Sicily be kept in subjection, or Philip be prevented from entering Italy, or the shores of Italy be protected? |
| 10907 | and should I withdraw thence, you will cross over into Africa-- will cross, did I say? |
| 10907 | and since it is allowable to admit new allies, who could think it proper, either that no people should be received for any services into friendship? |
| 10907 | and, that this city, these temples, and consecrated grounds, these lands and waters, were become the property of the Samnites? |
| 10907 | do you now also regret that the war against the Romans was entered upon? |
| 10907 | if his fierce and uncontrollable anger? |
| 10907 | none of them know, that, whatever was the last order of the people, that was law? |
| 10907 | or do ye choose to cherish hopes proportioned to your bravery? |
| 10907 | or that we shall not soon enough become slaves to the son of him, to whose son- in- law our armies were bequeathed as an hereditary right? |
| 10907 | or that your right hands are benumbed? |
| 10907 | or that, being received under protection, they should not be defended? |
| 10907 | or was it by pressing and besieging Luceria, and challenging the victorious enemy? |
| 10907 | or what other miracle is it? |
| 10907 | that private individuals should without repugnance furnish rowers? |
| 10907 | to challenge him and drag him out to decide the contest? |
| 10907 | what to the gods, the guarantees of the treaty? |
| 10907 | what to the treaty? |
| 10907 | what was the fate of the army? |
| 10907 | who better calculated to endure fatigue? |
| 10907 | who has neither provisions nor money? |
| 10907 | who, with the office of interrex for five days? |
| 10907 | will you take Spain also? |
| 12582 | Again, when Rome was taken by the Gauls, whence was the city ransomed? |
| 12582 | And even had you got the better of all these, would you bear arms in conjunction with the Carthaginians against your country, against your countrymen? |
| 12582 | And what else do they resume when the mourning is over? |
| 12582 | And when you, the husband, may wear purple in your great coat, will you not suffer your wife to have a purple mantle? |
| 12582 | Are there now larger armies in Africa, more and better generals, than were then in Spain? |
| 12582 | Are your blandishments more seducing in public than in private; and with other women''s husbands, than with your own? |
| 12582 | As these two kinds are thus distinct in their nature, of which kind does that law appear to be which we now propose to repeal? |
| 12582 | At first they only discoursed in private, asking what they were doing among people who were at peace with them, if there was a war in the province? |
| 12582 | But what are they compared with what we endure this day? |
| 12582 | But what are they in comparison with those atrocious deeds, that are daily perpetrated by you and your adherents, in continual succession? |
| 12582 | But what have they done? |
| 12582 | But whence has this concern for me so suddenly sprung? |
| 12582 | But why do I plead the cause of those states, which it would be fitter that both we and the king should hear pleaded by themselves?" |
| 12582 | But why do I speak of Capua, when even to vanquished Carthage we granted peace and liberty? |
| 12582 | By what acts is friendship violated? |
| 12582 | Can I call you countrymen, who have revolted from your country? |
| 12582 | Can I call you enemies? |
| 12582 | Can a war with a Carthaginian enemy be carried on with greater convenience in Spain than in Africa? |
| 12582 | Can there be a stronger instance than Hannibal himself, or one more to the point? |
| 12582 | Can you place any confidence in Numidians after having experienced a defection in your own soldiers? |
| 12582 | Can you say this to the deliverers of Greece; to people who crossed the sea, and have maintained a war on sea and land, to effect its deliverance? |
| 12582 | Could not each have made the same request to her husband at home? |
| 12582 | Could the armies, the generals themselves, their dignity or their cause, be compared with one another? |
| 12582 | Did not the matrons, by unanimous agreement, bring their gold into the public treasury? |
| 12582 | Did we then approve of that deed? |
| 12582 | Do you believe that these would continue quiet and faithful, if Philip should come over to Italy? |
| 12582 | Do you seek to obtain the distinguished honour of having finished the Punic war? |
| 12582 | Do you trust in the Numidians and Syphax? |
| 12582 | Does not the reason occur to the mind of any one of you why those, who are not yet our allies, require more than he who is? |
| 12582 | Equal, do I say? |
| 12582 | For what rivalry can there exist between myself and a man who is not equal in years even to my son? |
| 12582 | For what similarity is there between them? |
| 12582 | For what will they not attempt, if they now come off victorious? |
| 12582 | For, if rejected by the Romans, to whom could they apply? |
| 12582 | For, what are they doing, at this moment, in your streets and lanes? |
| 12582 | For, what similarity is there in the cases of those states which you have brought into comparison? |
| 12582 | Had you possessed the same spirit, would the enemy have seen your backs? |
| 12582 | Has some greater disaster been suffered in Africa now than had at that time befallen us in Spain? |
| 12582 | Have they never before appeared in public? |
| 12582 | Have your forces been diminished by them, or theirs increased? |
| 12582 | He even relates one of their conversations, in which Scipio asked Hannibal,"whom he thought the greatest captain?" |
| 12582 | How do they distinguish themselves on occasion of public thanksgivings and supplications, but by adding unusual splendour of dress? |
| 12582 | How many instances must I produce of your having done so? |
| 12582 | How then can you suppose we shall conduct ourselves towards the Argives, who are acquitted of having publicly authorized misconduct? |
| 12582 | If of his own will he gave up so many allies to the ravages of the enemy, what objection can he make to these allies consulting for their own safety? |
| 12582 | If so, for what offence on the part of your country? |
| 12582 | If they esteemed him a good man, why had they thus passed a sentence of condemnation upon him as a wicked and guilty one? |
| 12582 | If they had proved him a guilty man, why should they thus trust him with a second consulate after having improperly committed to him the first?" |
| 12582 | In the late war, not to go back to remote antiquity, when there was a want of money, did not the funds of the widows supply the treasury? |
| 12582 | In what manner shall I defend this? |
| 12582 | Is it an ancient law of the kings, coeval with the city itself? |
| 12582 | Is it one, without which our ancestors thought that the honour of the female sex could not be preserved? |
| 12582 | Is it to solicit that their parents, their husbands, children, and brothers may be ransomed from captivity under Hannibal? |
| 12582 | Is not the great difference which this makes proved to you even by the recent precedent of Claudius and Livius, the consuls? |
| 12582 | Marcellus was moved by this consideration, and observed to his colleague,"Why not go ourselves with a few horsemen and reconnoitre? |
| 12582 | On being asked by Scipio"who he was, of what country, and why at that age he was in the camp?" |
| 12582 | On his proceeding to ask,"whom he esteemed the third?" |
| 12582 | On this Scipio laughed, and added,"What would you have said if you had conquered me?" |
| 12582 | Or, what is next to that, was it written in the twelve tables by the decemvirs, appointed to form a code of laws? |
| 12582 | Philip, do you at last restore to us Pharsalus and Larissa, with Cremaste, Echinus, and Thebes in Phthiotis?" |
| 12582 | Scipio then asked,"to whom he gave the second place?" |
| 12582 | Shall our children wear gowns bordered with purple? |
| 12582 | Shall we men have the use of purple, wearing the purple- bordered gown in magistracies and priests''offices? |
| 12582 | Shall we ourselves, with our own arms, defend, against the Roman forces, the cities that will be attacked? |
| 12582 | Shall we then at length send for you, our consul, out of Africa, as we formerly sent for Quintus Fulvius from Capua? |
| 12582 | Shall your horse be more splendidly caparisoned than your wife is clothed? |
| 12582 | That, as soon as they shall see a Roman army in Greece, they will turn away to that government to which they have been accustomed? |
| 12582 | The question is, Whether you must transport your legions to Macedonia, or admit the enemy into Italy? |
| 12582 | This the king refused; and on Quinctius asking him,"Whom do you fear?" |
| 12582 | This would hurt the feelings even of men, and what do you think must be its effect on those of weak women, whom even trifles can disturb? |
| 12582 | Us, do I say? |
| 12582 | Villius then asked, whether they chose that he should consider himself as having come to friends, or to enemies? |
| 12582 | Was it your purpose to hold Sucro as a place of abode? |
| 12582 | Was my age then more mature for conducting a war than now? |
| 12582 | Well, but you say, though all these things were so, Romans, how do they concern you? |
| 12582 | What alteration has last night, what on this day, produced? |
| 12582 | What called forth the Licinian law, restricting estates to five hundred acres, but the unbounded desire for enlarging estates? |
| 12582 | What circumstances induce me to believe that Philip may be brought to a union with us? |
| 12582 | What difference is there, as a demonstration of fear, between this and his shutting himself up within the walls of a city to stand a siege? |
| 12582 | What duty of a commander had he ever discharged? |
| 12582 | What else do they lay aside when in mourning, except their gold and purple? |
| 12582 | What grief, what resentment instigated you? |
| 12582 | What motive, that even common decency will allow to be mentioned, is pretended for this female insurrection? |
| 12582 | What new thing, let me ask, have the matrons done in coming out into public in a body on an occasion which nearly concerns themselves? |
| 12582 | What panic was this? |
| 12582 | What shall we say when we consider that in Africa also both parties will be liable to the chances of war? |
| 12582 | What sudden forgetfulness of who you are, and who the persons with whom you were fighting, took possession of your minds? |
| 12582 | What terror? |
| 12582 | What the Cincian law, concerning gifts and presents, but that the plebeians[1] had become vassals and tributaries to the senate? |
| 12582 | What the Roman people, when, taking the command from the tribunes appointed by their suffrages, you conferred it on private men? |
| 12582 | What, but arguing, some in support of the motion of the plebeian tribunes; others, for the repeal of the law? |
| 12582 | What, therefore, was the result, conscript fathers? |
| 12582 | What, think you, was the reason? |
| 12582 | Why Locris and Phocis? |
| 12582 | Why are not slaves brought to serve in the army? |
| 12582 | Why do not I make a figure, distinguished with gold and purple? |
| 12582 | Why do not we, private subjects, supply rowers as we did then? |
| 12582 | Why do we contract for public works for ready money? |
| 12582 | Why do you send yearly to Syracuse, and other Grecian cities of Sicily, a praetor, vested with sovereign power, and attended by his rods and axes? |
| 12582 | Why does he at present suffer Elatia to be besieged? |
| 12582 | Why so many cities of Thessaly? |
| 12582 | Why, on this showing, has he suffered Eretria and Carystus to be taken? |
| 12582 | Will you then, I pray, have more power in Africa and alone, or here, with your own and your colleague''s army united? |
| 12582 | Would they have carried off a standard from any company or cohort? |
| 12582 | Would you rather have drawn away Hamilcar from Drepanum and Eryx than have expelled the Carthaginians and Hannibal from Italy? |
| 12582 | Would you wish that Africa should rule Italy, and Carthage the city of Rome? |
| 12582 | Yet how can I give them an answer, unless by a decree of yours? |
| 12582 | and, therefore, have we also reason to fear, that, together with it, we should repeal the modesty and chastity of our females? |
| 12582 | if I were dead, was the state to expire with me? |
| 12582 | if the war was terminated and the province completely subdued, why were they not conveyed back into Italy? |
| 12582 | or soldiers, who have rejected the command and authority of your general, and violated the solemn obligation of your oath? |
| 12582 | to leave no obligation, divine or human, unviolated? |
| 12582 | to revolt from the Roman people and join the Ilergetians? |
| 12582 | was the empire of the Roman people to fall with me? |
| 12582 | whom they ordered to grant that peace, and whom to conduct the army out of Africa? |
| 27766 | ''And do I look thus to thee?'' 27766 ''Tis Beatrice then who holds your heart in thrall?" |
| 27766 | A girl a condottiere-- who ever heard of such a prodigy? |
| 27766 | And Anne, whom I thought so indifferent to my career, to my very existence, did this for me? |
| 27766 | And could they give you no better lodging than that? |
| 27766 | And do you think I have not suffered? |
| 27766 | And how shall we do that? |
| 27766 | And my sister? |
| 27766 | And shall I not find you again, O my beloved? |
| 27766 | And what is to hinder my killing you first, my little tigress? |
| 27766 | And what manner of creature may that be? |
| 27766 | And what of that? 27766 And what,"asked the horrified Brandilancia,"was the motive of this crime?" |
| 27766 | And what,he asked,"would you choose that rôle to be?" |
| 27766 | And wherefore in Rome? 27766 And you did this to give me pleasure?" |
| 27766 | Appeal to her heart in the last resort I grant you, but only thus: Lady, will you have me? 27766 Bravo, dear Uncle, I have guessed this ambition, have I not? |
| 27766 | But where are the other gems? |
| 27766 | But why not, my Celio? |
| 27766 | But will she go? |
| 27766 | Deserters? |
| 27766 | Did she go to meet me? 27766 Did she not receive my letter?" |
| 27766 | Did you find your horse in the stables? 27766 Did you think I would suffer you to die in the trap into which you had ventured for love of me? |
| 27766 | Do you mean that your husband thought I meant_ you_? |
| 27766 | Do you mean to provoke me? |
| 27766 | Do you not recognise that contadina,the dwarf replied,"the one standing between the fountain and the parapet yonder? |
| 27766 | Fly,she repeated in bewilderment,"and leave your kingdom, your crown?" |
| 27766 | Gramercy,he cried,"shall so fair a prize be won foully by false plagiarism?" |
| 27766 | Has your Highness any preference as to my residence during your absence? |
| 27766 | Have I been condemned to death? |
| 27766 | Have I not heard,Imperia hazarded boldly,"that he is to marry the Maria Dovizio whom I met at Cetinale?" |
| 27766 | Have you any guess as to whom he may be? |
| 27766 | Have you forgotten,I asked,"that you have just been made a cardinal?" |
| 27766 | Have you gone to the bottom? |
| 27766 | How can that be since he has never seen me? |
| 27766 | How did you know me? |
| 27766 | How may that be,laughed Eleanor,"if I am''supreme o''er the garden?'' |
| 27766 | I am with you in that business,I assured Imperia,"but how can we effect it?" |
| 27766 | I ask you of what good to tantalise me with impossible suggestions? 27766 I would be overjoyed to carry out your plan, my good friend,"replied Brandilancia,"but shall I be safe? |
| 27766 | If this is true is the Signorina safe in his power? |
| 27766 | Imagine a semaphore in the place of those monstrous and absurd columns-- what are they, by the way? 27766 Is he indeed a hog?" |
| 27766 | Is it not apparent? 27766 Is it she, who has rescued me?" |
| 27766 | Is it so? |
| 27766 | Is that a beacon? |
| 27766 | Is the life of a savage in the wilderness a fit one for a daughter of the Medici? |
| 27766 | Is the villa under some enchantment? |
| 27766 | Is this all you have brought? |
| 27766 | It is good of you, Signorina,he said,"to think of me in my trouble; or is it perchance your mistress who has sent you?" |
| 27766 | Leave it to me; think you I have not long since foreseen and provided for such an emergency? |
| 27766 | Leonora,the Cardinal said softly,"have you heard what Lucrezia was saying, that this young poet has written an epic? |
| 27766 | May she have all happiness,Brandilancia exclaimed fervently,"but to whom then do I owe my release?" |
| 27766 | My wife? |
| 27766 | Nay, how could that be possible? 27766 O Uncle, will you? |
| 27766 | Of warning? |
| 27766 | On whose authority do you presume to do a thing so outrageous? |
| 27766 | Paulette, is it you? |
| 27766 | Radicofani, is this indeed the rogue who slipped from your clutches? |
| 27766 | She has the eyes? |
| 27766 | Since I am to bring away the casket,I replied,"for what purpose do you send this key? |
| 27766 | Tell me, my niece, have we in all Italy a poet who can voice such a theme? |
| 27766 | The Earl of Essex? |
| 27766 | The Grand Duke has commanded this,Brandilancia asked,"through the intervention of my faithful friend the Earl of Essex?" |
| 27766 | Then it is the Signorina who has effected my deliverance? |
| 27766 | Then you do not care to keep my first gift? |
| 27766 | Then you know not that my uncle has sent Radicofani to take you to Florence? |
| 27766 | Think you, the Duke would trust your promise? 27766 What answer you to this accusation, Richard?" |
| 27766 | What can have angered her? 27766 What expedient do you suggest Leonora?" |
| 27766 | What if Radicofani spoke the truth? |
| 27766 | What is your present position? |
| 27766 | What loss of time is this? |
| 27766 | What manner of man was this Ferdinando de''Medici who had converted his garden pleasance into a museum? |
| 27766 | What method were fairer, I ask you? |
| 27766 | What were you about to say? |
| 27766 | Who can have incited Camillo to such a resolution? |
| 27766 | Who is it,she asked drily,"who has the honour of being the embodiment of the Earl of Essex''s ideal of womanly perfection?" |
| 27766 | Who is there? |
| 27766 | Why did you not shoot me when I was at the lower turn of the road, my friend? |
| 27766 | Why should I put myself under his orders? |
| 27766 | Would I we d such a King whom I had learned to love, though in disguise? 27766 Would he so yield me, think you?" |
| 27766 | Would you like to rule, little princess? |
| 27766 | You can not bear this disappointment, say you, Ricciardo? 27766 You have brought me a message from your commander?" |
| 27766 | You have known it all along? |
| 27766 | You remember the eyeless basilisk which we found near Imola? |
| 27766 | You were right, you see, quite right, all is lost-- why do you not say''I told you so''? |
| 27766 | You would not then have disclaimed sending the message implied by the flowers which I attached to his mahl stick? |
| 27766 | You, sir? |
| 27766 | Your gift? 27766 *** And who shall say that Tasso did not make good the promise of his patroness? 27766 An she will_ not_, what would your servility gain? 27766 And what pray you would the Signora Imperia say to that? |
| 27766 | And with but so little more of endowment I might have done it, for after all is not the inner ear, the second sight, the major part of genius? |
| 27766 | Are you not ashamed, I insist, to accept all this and then to treat your affianced husband with such indignity? |
| 27766 | As for my loving brother- in- law, your noble husband----""Why should you mind Camillo''s sulks since I do not? |
| 27766 | But do you not see, Celio, that he must not be implicated in our plots? |
| 27766 | But how should he cross to this doorway? |
| 27766 | But marked you those of her sisters? |
| 27766 | But why may I not do this under my own name, as your authorised messenger?" |
| 27766 | But, look you, what use have I for such useless ornaments as your waxy- pale lilies, your flaunting and fragile roses? |
| 27766 | Can such a summons be disregarded? |
| 27766 | Can you resist my lord?" |
| 27766 | Can you summon him to me, and will he come instantly?" |
| 27766 | Caught A Paphian dove upon a message sent? |
| 27766 | Did you note that startled cry? |
| 27766 | Do you believe this villa when''twas new Was half so beautiful as now it seems? |
| 27766 | Do you realise that you are in a very serious position?" |
| 27766 | Ere that happened footsteps were heard and the voice of the Princess calling,"Joachim, where are you?" |
| 27766 | Hast thou sinned in aught Offensive to the heavenly powers? |
| 27766 | Have we missed each other?" |
| 27766 | Have you written other books as entertaining?" |
| 27766 | How could he when he had only his beautiful but soulless wife Chiara Fancelli to paint from?'' |
| 27766 | How long must he retain this cramped position? |
| 27766 | I gained his victories and I commanded the_ escadron sacrée_ which protected his person in the retreat, and what is my reward?" |
| 27766 | I wonder now if you have heard of a secret organisation called the Carbonari? |
| 27766 | If I can wait, can not you? |
| 27766 | If she believed him erring was the high- spirited wife capable of forgiveness? |
| 27766 | Ill favoured I? |
| 27766 | Is he as valiant in arms as he is lovable, as fortunate as he is deserving?" |
| 27766 | Is it possible that she suspects that her reign is over?" |
| 27766 | Is it, perchance, that Monna Afra may retain for herself any of the contents of the_ coffre_?" |
| 27766 | Is not Pompeo Colonna a cardinal? |
| 27766 | Is there a possibility of your true love failing, if so be he but enter the contest?" |
| 27766 | Is there any power that can divide us?" |
| 27766 | It was good? |
| 27766 | King Louis had indeed explained it to him before sending him to Aldobrandino, and Richard had demanded carelessly:"Of what sort is the maiden?" |
| 27766 | May I read the letter? |
| 27766 | Now confess, can anything be fairer? |
| 27766 | Oh, Celio, was there ever such magnanimity?" |
| 27766 | Oh, why did God give her the form of an angel and put my soul in the body of a demon?" |
| 27766 | Once for all I ask, will you accept my offer?" |
| 27766 | Only the musical plash of the fountains and the sonorous undertone of the organ, like the distant roar of surf upon the beach? |
| 27766 | Ought he to make a sudden rush for life and liberty? |
| 27766 | Said I not rightly a peach- blossom? |
| 27766 | Say what thou seest below the ages stream, Tell us, is life''s enigma known to thee? |
| 27766 | Shall I confess to thee my secret thoughts? |
| 27766 | Shall I show your worship to your own room, or will you await the ladies in the library?" |
| 27766 | She is near- sighted; have you not noted, as she looks from her window of the Belvedere how she scans the objects in the garden through its lenses?" |
| 27766 | Signorina how can I ever thank you? |
| 27766 | Then the King asked Sancie loudly:"Are you content to give your hand to the winner of this contest?" |
| 27766 | Then you are not Essex?" |
| 27766 | Thy doubtful bow against some deer herd bent Sacred to Dian? |
| 27766 | To curry favour with Cardinal de''Medici?" |
| 27766 | Was it Radicofani? |
| 27766 | Was it a comedy, or am I in earnest? |
| 27766 | Was there nothing which he held sacred, no terror in earth or hell which could daunt his inexorable will? |
| 27766 | Was there, I questioned, no motive within the complicated mechanism of Cesare''s mind upon which I could play? |
| 27766 | Were workmen preparing to wall up the exit? |
| 27766 | What a pillow was that for a bridegroom, eh, Ricciardo?" |
| 27766 | What am I that I should hold you thus when you stand in danger of your life?" |
| 27766 | What business could she have there at such an hour? |
| 27766 | What can you do?" |
| 27766 | What do you say, Leonora, shall we confess that we have made a mistake and return?" |
| 27766 | What else could you expect of such a woman? |
| 27766 | What fruit bear they, I ask? |
| 27766 | What have I to offer him? |
| 27766 | What need of lights? |
| 27766 | What news do you bring from the Grand Duke, Captain? |
| 27766 | What other signification could be placed upon this supposititious drama which they were to evolve together? |
| 27766 | What think you was Ariosto''s meed for dedicating to his patron the_ Orlando Furioso_? |
| 27766 | What was the boon which gave Tasso so much bliss? |
| 27766 | Which shall it be?" |
| 27766 | Who could the lady be? |
| 27766 | Who in our day can interpret the poetry which I feel here but can not express? |
| 27766 | Who knows when Napoleon will think of us? |
| 27766 | Why did the Princess''s colour come and go as she listened, her cheek much too near his passionate lips? |
| 27766 | Why do you hesitate? |
| 27766 | Why need I tell you all? |
| 27766 | Why not in it making all better and happier?'' |
| 27766 | Why not, since my ambitions are for you as well as for myself? |
| 27766 | Why should you not succeed? |
| 27766 | Will he soon return to us?" |
| 27766 | Will it please you to join her train as Manager of her Royal Theatre and Purveyor of Sports to the French Court? |
| 27766 | Would he be left here until starvation released him from agony and his bones bleached in the sun? |
| 27766 | Would you be capable of the devotion which you demand of him?" |
| 27766 | Would you give yourself to the_ man_ you loved knowing that he was not of royal birth?" |
| 27766 | Would you we d this true lover, not knowing that he was a King? |
| 27766 | You must fly, but how? |
| 27766 | You refuse my peace- offerings; you will not visit us?" |
| 27766 | You would like more? |
| 27766 | Your eyes are better than mine, is it she?" |
| 27766 | _ May_ I then keep it?" |
| 27766 | and how can you get it to me?" |
| 27766 | dearest lady, can you think of no way of persuading the Signor Ippolito to renounce his suit?" |
| 27766 | he cried,"have you come to gloat over and increase my agony?" |
| 27766 | she cried,"then you are not-- not Henry of Navarre?" |
| 27766 | well- a- day Why should our young Endymion pine away?''" |
| 27766 | what is fame, what is honour,"he cried,"to love like yours? |
| 27766 | whither is it flown, For which in secret every heart repines? |
| 6839 | Professing ignorance, he put perhaps this question-- What is law? 6839 What will it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" |
| 6839 | And if these did not arrest corruption, how could art, when perverted, save a falling empire? |
| 6839 | And what if there was suffering on the earth? |
| 6839 | And when were wars more unfortunate, more unsuccessful? |
| 6839 | And why did art degenerate? |
| 6839 | Athens fell when her arts and schools were in the zenith of their glory, how could Rome stand when arts and schools undermined the moral health? |
| 6839 | But how can we reconcile such a fact with the progress of a religion which is the mainspring of all virtue, and the destruction of all vice? |
| 6839 | But what are we to think of laws when they are either evaded or perverted, when there is not wisdom to feel their justice or virtue to execute them? |
| 6839 | But what avail the energy and talents of rulers when a nation is doomed to destruction? |
| 6839 | But what if particular cities suffered? |
| 6839 | But where were her one hundred and fifty thousand warriors? |
| 6839 | But"what heathen,"says Tertullian,"will suffer his wife to go about from one street to another to the houses of strangers? |
| 6839 | But, while Christianity conquered Rome, why did she fail to arrest its ruin? |
| 6839 | Can vitality in states be preserved by mechanical inventions? |
| 6839 | Can we afford to reject all the examples of the past in our sanguine hopes for the future? |
| 6839 | Could nothing arrest the stupendous downfall? |
| 6839 | Did art make the Medici at Florence more susceptible to religious impressions? |
| 6839 | Did they create a lofty public sentiment which scorned baseness and lies? |
| 6839 | Did they infuse life into the decaying mass? |
| 6839 | Did they lead to self- restraint? |
| 6839 | Did they produce valor and moral force among the masses? |
| 6839 | Did they prolong political existence? |
| 6839 | Did they raise a bulwark capable of resisting human degeneracy or barbaric violence? |
| 6839 | Do the boasted triumphs of civilization create those holy certitudes on which happiness is based? |
| 6839 | Do we arrive at any clearer conceptions of it by definitions? |
| 6839 | Does a sentimental novel prompt to duty? |
| 6839 | Does art sanctify Dresden or Florence? |
| 6839 | Does moral worth necessarily keep pace with aesthetic culture, or intellectual triumphs, or material strength? |
| 6839 | Does society expand from inherent laws of development, or from influences altogether foreign to man? |
| 6839 | Especially were not such bright examples needed for the ages which were to come? |
| 6839 | Even amid all the excitements attending the change of government, who have had power on the people like a Lacordaire or Monod? |
| 6839 | Has civilization nothing to do with Christianity? |
| 6839 | How could Christianity have subverted these monstrous evils without producing revolutions more blasting than even barbaric violence? |
| 6839 | How could it save when its ends were destructive of all those sentiments on which true greatness rests? |
| 6839 | How could people of no political or social position, who were objects of ridicule and contempt, have effected great social or political changes? |
| 6839 | How could she, thus prostituted, elevate the people, or arrest degeneracy, or consecrate the ancient superstitions? |
| 6839 | How could they reach the ear of those who disdained, repelled, and persecuted them? |
| 6839 | How far did literature, art, science, laws, philosophy, prove conservative forces? |
| 6839 | How far has its civilization perished, and how far has it entered into new combinations? |
| 6839 | How long before slavery would have been destroyed in the United States by any moral means? |
| 6839 | How many acres does he own? |
| 6839 | How many slaves does he keep? |
| 6839 | If Christianity is what its converts claim, why did it accomplish so little? |
| 6839 | If Plato or Aristotle had been contemporaries with Thales, would they have matured so wonderful a system of dialectics? |
| 6839 | If aristocratic institutions keep their ground in the best country of Europe, what must have been the grasp of nobles in the Roman world? |
| 6839 | If intellectual strength will not keep men from vices, what can be expected when intellect panders to passions and interests? |
| 6839 | If it prospered by means of its truths, why was its progress so slow when it was comparatively pure and elevated? |
| 6839 | If knowledge did not restrain the passions of philosophers, how could passions be restrained when every influence tended to excite them? |
| 6839 | If moral elevation kept pace with art, why the memorable decline in morals when the genius of the Romans soared to its utmost height? |
| 6839 | If vice, selfishness, and pride were not overruled, what would become of our world? |
| 6839 | In what does beauty consist? |
| 6839 | Is Emerson superior to Epictetus, in an ethical point of view? |
| 6839 | Is it nothing, in such an age, to have given an impulse to the most exalted sentiments that men can cherish? |
| 6839 | Is it possible that civilization, the triumph of human genius and will, may fade away as Christianity, which gives vitality to society, advances? |
| 6839 | Is it the settled destiny of nations to rise to a certain height in wisdom and power, and then pass away in ignominy and gloom? |
| 6839 | Is the tendency of society to democratic, or aristocratic, or despotic governments? |
| 6839 | Is there permanence in any human institutions? |
| 6839 | May there not be the greatest practical infidelity, with the most artistic beauty and native reach of thought? |
| 6839 | May there not be the highest triumphs of art, literature, and science, where the mainsprings of society are sensuality and egotism? |
| 6839 | Military genius, united with patriotism, might have delayed the fall, but where was the glory of the legions in those last days? |
| 6839 | On what did Luther and Cranmer build the hopes of regeneration? |
| 6839 | Oui bono?_--"who shall show us any good?" |
| 6839 | Shall we seek a connection between their martyrdoms and civilization? |
| 6839 | Socrates died for his own opinions; but who was ever willing to die for the opinions of Socrates? |
| 6839 | The Peripatetic inquired, sneeringly,"What_ is_ truth?" |
| 6839 | The dinner is small, who can deny it? |
| 6839 | The question is,_ Did_ these arts and sciences produce an influence sufficiently strong to conserve society? |

| 37206 | Oh-- where can we get some then? |
| 37206 | One is all right here, eh? |
| 37206 | Signora,he said,"do you understand me what I say?" |
| 37206 | The Signora is n''t eating? |
| 37206 | Then you are very bored here? |
| 37206 | There is nothing else? |
| 37206 | Vous avez pris le cafà ©? |
| 37206 | Vous descendez en terre? |

| 37206 | Why do you bother? |
| 37206 | Why, is this the only place you''ve got to sit in? |
| 37206 | Why,say I, lapsing into the Italian rhetorical manner,"why do you keep an inn? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Wo n''t you leave any tip at all? |
| 37206 | You are eating the kid? 37206 You are sleeping upstairs?" |
| 37206 | You think not? 37206 You would like to be in Cagliari?" |
| 37206 | You''ve seen Cagliari? |
| 37206 | _ Che genere di affari?_ What sort of business? |
| 37206 | _ Che genere di affari?_ What sort of business? |
| 37206 | ***** Where does one go? |
| 37206 | A fiasco of vino? |
| 37206 | Africa? |
| 37206 | After all, what is an hour and a half? |
| 37206 | Again the young woman called, had we had coffee? |
| 37206 | Ah Naples-- bella, bella, eh? |
| 37206 | Am I always to have the exchange flung in my teeth, as if I were a personal thief? |
| 37206 | And also in Italian:"Partiamo?" |
| 37206 | And are there many motor- cars in England?--many, many? |
| 37206 | And are we ready? |
| 37206 | And as for motor- cars, it is all I can do to own a pair of boots, so how am I to set about employing a_ chauffeur_? |
| 37206 | And run the gauntlet of that stinking, stinking lane? |
| 37206 | And was n''t it difficult to put the kid thus on the iron rod? |
| 37206 | And what does she do? |
| 37206 | And what nation were we, were we French? |
| 37206 | And what was it? |
| 37206 | Are all nations of Europe going to be forbidden? |
| 37206 | Are they ready? |
| 37206 | Are you suffering?" |
| 37206 | As I enter I hear one young man tenderly enquiring of the berth below:"Dost thou feel ill?" |
| 37206 | Because why? |
| 37206 | But I said loudly to the urchin:"Is_ that_ the telegraph official?" |
| 37206 | But in Sardinia, where roads and bridges are absolutely wanting, will they do anything? |
| 37206 | But is mere historical fact so strong, that what one learns in bits from books can move one so? |
| 37206 | But must you? |
| 37206 | But now where is that little hole where one gets the tickets? |
| 37206 | But seeing I was laughing without malice, he leaned to me and said softly, secretly:"What is your affair then? |
| 37206 | But there is little to see and therefore the question is, shall we go on? |
| 37206 | But what do you want? |
| 37206 | But what should women and girls be doing at the marionette show? |
| 37206 | But what? |
| 37206 | But who was he? |
| 37206 | But why in the name of heaven should my heart stand still as I watch that hill which rises above the sea? |
| 37206 | But_ can_ I care for the innumerable_ fantasias_ in the drapery line? |
| 37206 | Could I have milk? |
| 37206 | Could one go on board at once? |
| 37206 | Deutsch, eh? |
| 37206 | Deutschland unter alles now? |
| 37206 | Did n''t I tell thee I would count three? |
| 37206 | Did n''t we like it? |
| 37206 | Did n''t we start before?" |
| 37206 | Did the delicate and fine complication of lines against her eyes mean thirty- five? |
| 37206 | Did they do all their meat this way? |
| 37206 | Do they want men in America? |
| 37206 | Et vous?" |
| 37206 | Everything? |
| 37206 | For why? |
| 37206 | Girgenti, and the sulphur spirit and the Greek guarding temples, to make one madder? |
| 37206 | Had the milk come? |
| 37206 | Had we any more luggage-- were we going to the steamer? |
| 37206 | Had_ she_ paid for the train-- heh? |
| 37206 | Has not this song been sung at me once too often, by these people? |
| 37206 | Have you something to say? |
| 37206 | Hearing me speak to the q- b, he said in confidence to the priest:"Here are two Germans-- eh? |
| 37206 | Her ticket? |
| 37206 | Here, say I, they make it with nothing.--Is there milk? |
| 37206 | How far? |
| 37206 | How many men, how many races, has Etna put to flight? |
| 37206 | How much does it cost? |
| 37206 | How will she be ruined?" |
| 37206 | I asked how one went to the steamer-- did one walk? |
| 37206 | I say what for? |
| 37206 | I wanted to count their sails-- five square ones which I call the ladder, one above the other-- but how many wing- blades? |
| 37206 | In America too? |
| 37206 | In a very short time they were through their portions: and was there nothing else? |
| 37206 | Is n''t that so? |
| 37206 | Is our marvellous, mechanical era going to have so short a bloom? |
| 37206 | Is there another room?" |
| 37206 | Is there coffee? |
| 37206 | Is there something that amuses you? |
| 37206 | It all has an air of"Why not?" |
| 37206 | Looks down as if to say, What do you mean by it? |
| 37206 | Methylated spirit, a small aluminium saucepan, a spirit- lamp, two spoons, two forks, a knife, two aluminium plates, salt, sugar, tea-- what else? |
| 37206 | Naples, Rome, Florence? |
| 37206 | No milk at all? |
| 37206 | No more-- what? |
| 37206 | No passports? |
| 37206 | Not for long? |
| 37206 | Nothing else, you sludge queen? |
| 37206 | Now I ask you, is this to be borne? |
| 37206 | Oh my, will you go in such a little thing? |
| 37206 | Oh no-- will you risk it, really? |
| 37206 | Oh, my girovago was a known figure all over the country.--And where would they sleep? |
| 37206 | Only then? |
| 37206 | Or does the very word call an echo out of the dark blood? |
| 37206 | Or is the tide of enlightenment and world- unity already receding fast enough? |
| 37206 | Say then-- what does it mean? |
| 37206 | Shall we go forward? |
| 37206 | She got up wrathfully and stumbled into the dark passage, exclaiming--"Don''t we eat yet?" |
| 37206 | She shouts at me as I pass, in her powerful, extraordinary French:"Madame votre femme, elle est au lit?" |
| 37206 | She was not more than twenty years old I should say: or was she? |
| 37206 | Should we sit on in our present carriage, and go down in it to the port, along with the schoolmistress, and risk it? |
| 37206 | Somebody asks_ who_? |
| 37206 | Strange, is n''t it? |
| 37206 | The bus has stopped quite close to the door of the inn: Star of Italy, was it? |
| 37206 | The dark- browed man looked up at the girovago and said:"Are you going to cook the sausages with your fingers?" |
| 37206 | The lark flew at him and said"Then you''ve changed it, have you?" |
| 37206 | The q- b said no, why? |
| 37206 | The three giggling young hussies shrink together as if they would all hide behind one another, after a vain uprearing and a demand why? |
| 37206 | The workman''s International, or the centripetal movement into national isolation? |
| 37206 | Then she appeared with a bowl of smoking cabbage soup, in which were bits of macaroni: and would we have wine? |
| 37206 | Then where is tea? |
| 37206 | They addressed the sludge- queen curtly and disrespectfully, as if to say:"What''s she up to?" |
| 37206 | They seize the black- edged one by the arm, and in profound commiseration:"Do you suffer? |
| 37206 | They thought themselves no less-- and what are they? |
| 37206 | Thirty two hours in such a little boat? |
| 37206 | To travel with the stomach uneasy did one harm:_ fa male, fa male-- non è vero?_ Chorus of"yes." |
| 37206 | Tunis? |
| 37206 | Was he a Paladin and a splendour? |
| 37206 | Was there a bedroom? |
| 37206 | Was there a fire? |
| 37206 | Was there any cheese? |
| 37206 | Was there anything to eat? |
| 37206 | Was there cheese? |
| 37206 | Was there no room? |
| 37206 | Was there nowhere where we could sit? |
| 37206 | We helped ourselves, and the fat carabiniere started the conversation with the usual questions-- and where were we going tomorrow? |
| 37206 | We see the hill? |
| 37206 | Well, how nice to see you.--Oh, let the man wait.--What, going on at once to Naples? |
| 37206 | Well, what were we to do? |
| 37206 | Were they, said I, a sort of camorra? |
| 37206 | Were we English? |
| 37206 | Were we depending on booking berths at the port of Naples? |
| 37206 | Were we not going to see any more? |
| 37206 | What affair is it, yours?" |
| 37206 | What are the allies for? |
| 37206 | What did one pay for bread in Germany? |
| 37206 | What did the old woman want to take her trips down the line for? |
| 37206 | What do you say?" |
| 37206 | What does he want then? |
| 37206 | What does it mean, that this is an inn? |
| 37206 | What does it mean, your Ristorante Risveglio, written so large?" |
| 37206 | What does one care for precept and mental dictation? |
| 37206 | What does one care? |
| 37206 | What else was there to eat? |
| 37206 | What else was there to eat? |
| 37206 | What else was there? |
| 37206 | What good was that? |
| 37206 | What is the exchange today? |
| 37206 | What is your dialect?" |
| 37206 | What makes you say so? |
| 37206 | What sort of pictures? |
| 37206 | What was there to eat?--and was it nearly ready? |
| 37206 | What, say, what does it mean? |
| 37206 | What? |
| 37206 | What?" |
| 37206 | Wheesky-- eh? |
| 37206 | When are we going to London? |
| 37206 | When, oh when shall we come to Siniscola, where we are due to eat our midday meal? |
| 37206 | When? |
| 37206 | Where are you going?" |
| 37206 | Where did the bus go? |
| 37206 | Where had we come from, where were we going, what for? |
| 37206 | Where is his home? |
| 37206 | Where then? |
| 37206 | Where then? |
| 37206 | Where was the oven? |
| 37206 | Where were we going and where had we been and where did we live? |
| 37206 | Where''s the q- b? |
| 37206 | Whereupon the new fat neighbour asked him was it true that the Catholic Church was now becoming the one Church in the United States? |
| 37206 | Which motion will conquer? |
| 37206 | Who would have expected it? |
| 37206 | Why are you here? |
| 37206 | Why be angry? |

| 37206 | Why, then, must one go? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Why? |
| 37206 | Will the last waves of enlightenment and world- unity break over them and wash away the stocking- caps? |
| 37206 | Will you drink Wheesky, Mister?" |
| 37206 | Will you really go? |
| 37206 | With all the money, and we others with no money? |
| 37206 | Wo n''t you go from Cività Vecchia?" |
| 37206 | You are eating at the inn?" |
| 37206 | You ask why? |
| 37206 | You mean Ireland?" |
| 37206 | You must laugh, must you? |
| 37206 | You see that cape?" |
| 37206 | You think so? |
| 37206 | You''re sure you have everything you want? |
| 37206 | _ Non è vero?_ this to all the men from Siniscola. |
| 37206 | then you ca n''t go? |
| 28676 | A Roman army sits round Pompey and makes him a prisoner within valley and rampart-- and shall we live? 28676 A little late to welcome me, eh?" |
| 28676 | But what have I to do with lictors,he says,"who am almost ordered to leave the shores of Italy? |
| 28676 | But what was the meaning of it all? 28676 By what right, by what law,"he asks,"shall Cassius go to Syria? |
| 28676 | Did he defend Poetus? |
| 28676 | Did he kill him? 28676 Did he know of you whether you were a white man or a negro? |
| 28676 | Did you ever hear of a worse knave? |
| 28676 | Do you remember how Dolabella fought for you in Spain, when you were getting drunk at Narbo? 28676 Has not Hirtius, who has gone away, sick as he is, called it a war? |
| 28676 | He gives a birthday fête in his garden: to whom, I wonder? 28676 Is this he whom we used to know in the city? |
| 28676 | Sed quid agas? 28676 Shall Brutus talk of July?" |
| 28676 | Shall I, the savior of the city, assist to bring down upon that city those hordes of foreign men? 28676 Shall we defend the deeds of him at whose death we are rejoiced?" |
| 28676 | What would you say if you read my last letter to Appius? |
| 28676 | Who is there, I ask,he says,"who alleges Ligarius to have been in fault because he was in Africa? |
| 28676 | Who the mischief are these Pindenissians? 28676 Who wanted to go to Egypt?" |
| 28676 | Why do I-- I who am a man of peace-- refuse peace? 28676 Why do you talk to me of your tunny- fish, your pilot- fish, and your cheese and sardines? |
| 28676 | Would you not call him a very Lælius? |
| 28676 | You deny that I have had legacies? 28676 You have made me a prefect,"said Gavius;"where am I to go for my rations?" |
| 28676 | [ 118]--What would you have me do? |
| 28676 | [ 276] What can be truer, or less likely, we may suppose, to meet us in a treatise on philosophy, and, therefore, more welcome? 28676 [ 334]"Who is there, when he thinks that a God is taking care of him, shall not live day and night in awe of his divine majesty?" |
| 28676 | ''What music is that,''said I,''swelling so loudly and yet so sweet?'' |
| 28676 | *** And then am I not regretting at every moment the life of Rome-- the Forum, the city itself, my own house? |
| 28676 | *** Can you have an assured peace while there is an Antony in the State-- or many Antonys? |
| 28676 | *** Do you bear in mind,"he says,"that you were a bankrupt as soon as you had become a man? |
| 28676 | *** Why does not Antony come down among us to- day?" |
| 28676 | *** Will he kill him?" |
| 28676 | *** Would you mind telling me what height Turselius stood?" |
| 28676 | 45? |
| 28676 | A Charybdis do I call him? |
| 28676 | All his wine, the great weight of silver, the costly furniture and rich dresses, in a few days where were they all? |
| 28676 | All mere workmen are engaged in ignoble employment: what of grandeur can the mere workshop produce? |
| 28676 | Am I not always regretting you? |
| 28676 | Among those who did do the deed, whose name has been hidden-- or, indeed, is not most widely known? |
| 28676 | And again he says, speaking of God''s care,"Quis enim potest-- quam existimet a deo se curari-- non et dies, et noctes divinum numen horrere? |
| 28676 | And did he despise pain, or make any attempt at showing his disregard of it? |
| 28676 | And having done so, was he not bound to endure the enmity he had provoked? |
| 28676 | And how did you get back from Narbo? |
| 28676 | And who can fight them but after some fashion of their own? |
| 28676 | Antony is his friend, and why had Antony treated him so roughly? |
| 28676 | Are they to be found in notes and scraps and small documents brought forward by one witness, or not brought forward at all but only told to us? |
| 28676 | Are you all uncles to Antony?" |
| 28676 | Are you not a little late to welcome me as one of my friends? |
| 28676 | As to the third charge-- that of insincerity-- I would ask of my readers to bethink themselves how few men are sincere now? |
| 28676 | But of what Pompey was it that I so spoke? |
| 28676 | But tell me, Calenus, is slavery peace?" |
| 28676 | But then, how are we to judge of Cicero? |
| 28676 | But what are houses falling to him? |
| 28676 | But what attempt did he ever make? |
| 28676 | But what has it to do with the nature of the gods? |
| 28676 | But what is cowardice? |
| 28676 | But where have you learned that, seeing that I have inherited twenty million sesterces? |
| 28676 | But who can be made Consuls in the place of Pansa and Hirtius? |
| 28676 | But why has Appius taken away three of the fullest cohorts, seeing that in the entire province the number of soldiers left has been so small? |
| 28676 | By the gods, do you not wonder at it? |
| 28676 | Can St. Paul have expressed with more clearness his belief as to a heaven? |
| 28676 | Can any man read the records of this long affection without wishing that he might be blessed with such a friendship? |
| 28676 | Can any one say that Cicero was base to have rejoiced that Cæsar had been killed? |
| 28676 | Can there be anything more absurd than to demand so great a preparation for so small a journey? |
| 28676 | Can you deny this, you who are creating all means of delays by which Decimus may be weakened and Antony made strong?" |
| 28676 | Can you expect glory from them? |
| 28676 | Cicero puts forward his excuses, and then bursts out with the real truth:"Why should I nibble round the unpalatable morsel which has to be swallowed?" |
| 28676 | Clodius was killed by my counsels-- was he? |
| 28676 | Clodius, rising in his anger, demanded,"Who had brought the famine?" |
| 28676 | Could Cæsar have told us all his feelings? |
| 28676 | Could any of us have refused to speak to Cæsar with adulation-- any of us whom circumstances compelled to speak to him? |
| 28676 | Crassus, noted for usury, i., 102; did he join Catiline? |
| 28676 | Did he ever desert his ship, when he had engaged himself to serve? |
| 28676 | Did he offer to help and not help? |
| 28676 | Did he think of this as he walked on the shore of Puteoli-- or of the ceremony he was about to encounter before he ate his dinner? |
| 28676 | Did he want to see the villa? |
| 28676 | Did they occasion him remorse? |
| 28676 | Do they remember how many Romans in public life had been murdered during the last dozen years? |
| 28676 | Do you remember your early friendship with Curio, and the injuries you did his father?" |
| 28676 | Does not the Church admit prayers for change of weather? |
| 28676 | For Pompey''s sake am I to let in these crowds? |
| 28676 | Had an attempt been made to recall Cæsar illegally? |
| 28676 | Had he done well in joining himself to Pompey? |
| 28676 | Had he ever taken more than one loan from Cæsar? |
| 28676 | Had not Cicero too rejoiced at the uncle''s murder? |
| 28676 | Had you any command from the Roman people to ask the same for them? |
| 28676 | Has he not revelled in his passions, feeling them to be just, righteous, honest, and becoming a man? |
| 28676 | Has he regretted them? |
| 28676 | Has he shown himself to us to be a man with a leaning toward such attempts? |
| 28676 | Has not young Cæsar, young as he is, prompted to it by no one, undertaken it as a war?" |
| 28676 | Has your name or has mine been able, over this small morsel of the earth''s surface, to ascend Mount Caucasus or to cross the Ganges? |
| 28676 | Have they thought of the danger which he did run when they bring those charges against him? |
| 28676 | He begins mildly enough, but warms with his subject as he goes on:"Should they send ambassadors to a traitor to his country? |
| 28676 | He did not care to fight; but are all men cowards who do not care to fight when work can be so much better done by talking? |
| 28676 | He had agreed to go on this embassy-- who can say for what motives? |
| 28676 | He thinks that he may in this way perhaps best serve the public, or even"if it be not so, what else is there that he may find to do? |
| 28676 | He took a present of books from his friend Poetus, and asked another friend what"Cincius"would say to it? |
| 28676 | He was going for the sake of his son; but would not people say that he went to avoid the present danger? |
| 28676 | He will die with Pompey in Italy, but what can he do by leaving it? |
| 28676 | His doings during the whole of this time were but little to his credit; but who is there whose doings were to his credit at that period? |
| 28676 | How did Cicero show his fear? |
| 28676 | How is a man to live by listening to such trash as this?" |
| 28676 | How is he to support seven legions? |
| 28676 | How is it that a correspondence, which is for its main purpose so full, should have fallen so short in many of its details? |
| 28676 | How many a man has since learned to regret the lost labor of his household; and yet what god has been the better? |
| 28676 | How near have we approached to the beauty of truth, with all Christ''s teaching to guide us? |
| 28676 | How should Lepidus doubt now when victory had declared for the Republic? |
| 28676 | How, then, could it be that he should ask for so small a thing as a triumph in reward for so small a deed as that done at Pindenissum? |
| 28676 | How, then, shall I now write in terms which shall suffice for his pride to the man who has been equalled to Romulus?" |
| 28676 | I am bound to oblige you-- but how can I do so in opposition to your own lessons? |
| 28676 | If because he wrote it, and did not speak it, what shall be said of the party writers of to- day? |
| 28676 | If he be blamed because his Philippic was anonymous, how do the anonymous writers of to- day escape? |
| 28676 | If he were a coward, why did he hurry into this contest with Antony? |
| 28676 | If he were a coward, why did he write it at all? |
| 28676 | If she would deduct something from so small a sum, what would she do if it were larger? |
| 28676 | If, then, you despair of reaching this abode, which all of true excellence strive to approach, what glory is there to be gained? |
| 28676 | In the midst of this, how many a father of a family is there who goes to church for the sake of example? |
| 28676 | In this condition was it not better for him to go with the other Generals of the Empire rather than to perish with a falling party? |
| 28676 | In what city was Hannibal as cruel as Antony at Parma; and shall we not call him an enemy?" |
| 28676 | Is it only because I am an Englishman that he seems to me to describe that form of government which was to come in England? |
| 28676 | Is there any end to this misery? |
| 28676 | Is this our talkative Senator? |
| 28676 | Looking at the state of the Roman Empire when Cicero died, who would not declare its doom? |
| 28676 | Now what do you, followers of Epicurus, say to this? |
| 28676 | Of whom would we wish that the familiar letters of another about ourselves should be published? |
| 28676 | Or how can it be possible, when each of us must take the cause as it comes to him? |
| 28676 | Or how can you be at peace with one who hates you as does he; or how can he be at peace with those who hate him as do you? |
| 28676 | Shall I deliver it up to famine and to destruction for the sake of one man who is no more than mortal? |
| 28676 | Shall I not by the same aid restore you to yours?" |
| 28676 | Shall I remain sitting here? |
| 28676 | Shall I rush hither and thither madly, and implore the credit of the towns? |
| 28676 | Shall he send word to Cæsar that he will wait upon him nearer to Rome? |
| 28676 | Shall we forgive a house- breaker because the tools which he has himself invented are used at last upon his own door? |
| 28676 | Should he seek the uncomfortable refuge of Brutus''s army? |
| 28676 | Six hundred mules on the stage in the acting of Clytemnestra, or three thousand golden goblets in The Trojan Horse-- what delight could they give you? |
| 28676 | So it is thus that Cæsar''s acts are to be maintained? |
| 28676 | The first words we know because they have been quoted by Quintilian,"Oh ye gods immortal, what day is this which has shone upon me at last? |
| 28676 | Then why, it may be asked, did he write so many essays on philosophy-- enough to have consumed the energies of many laborious years? |
| 28676 | Then, as to the other, why was he leaving his country- house so suddenly? |
| 28676 | There of course arises the question, who is to decide whether a man be a tyrant? |
| 28676 | They who speak of you-- for how short a time will their voices be heard? |
| 28676 | To Phormio, perhaps, or Gnatho, or Ballion? |
| 28676 | Was Cicero mean in his conduct toward Cæsar? |
| 28676 | Was Cicero sincere to his party, was he sincere to his friends, was he sincere to his family, was he sincere to his dependents? |
| 28676 | Was Hannibal at the gate, or were they dealing for peace with Pyrrhus, as was the case when they brought the old blind Appius down to the House? |
| 28676 | Was he subjected to wrong by having his command taken away from him before the period had passed for which the people had given it? |
| 28676 | Was he wrong at such a moment to save his life for the Republic-- and for himself? |
| 28676 | Was it considered base by other Romans of the day? |
| 28676 | Was it for this that he had bade the Senate"fear nothing"as to young Octavian,"but always still look for better and greater things?" |
| 28676 | Was it not better so? |
| 28676 | Was it of this one who flies he knows not what, nor whom, nor whither he will fly? |
| 28676 | Was it unusual for Senators to be absent? |
| 28676 | Was that Greek philosophy? |
| 28676 | Was there ever a man of whom it might be said with less truth that he was indifferent as to pain? |
| 28676 | Was this cowardice? |
| 28676 | Was this the man to console himself with the idea that death was no evil? |
| 28676 | What business had Brutus to think the senate cowardly? |
| 28676 | What can be better worth our study than philosophy, or what more heavenly than virtue? |
| 28676 | What can be more"pestiferous,"or more prone to sedition? |
| 28676 | What can have been worse to a young man than to have been open to such payment? |
| 28676 | What could a dead man do for his country? |
| 28676 | What fame can you expect from men, or what glory? |
| 28676 | What if we had Pompey''s thoughts and Cæsar''s, would they be less so? |
| 28676 | What is it to him that politicians are cutting each other''s throats around him? |
| 28676 | What is it to us whether this or that event has been decreed while we live, and while each follows his own devices? |
| 28676 | What matters it to the unknown man whether a Cæsar or a Pompey is at the top of all things? |
| 28676 | What name would be so good to bind together the opponents of Cæsar as that of Cicero? |
| 28676 | What oration was nipped in the bud by fear of his creditor? |
| 28676 | What other Roman governor of whom we have heard would have made a question on the subject? |
| 28676 | What sense is duller? |
| 28676 | What was it that you desired so eagerly, with those eyes and hands, with that passion in your heart? |
| 28676 | What was one honest man among so many? |
| 28676 | What was the meaning of your weapon? |
| 28676 | What was your sword doing, Tubero, in that Pharsalian army? |
| 28676 | What would the Consuls do, what would Curio do, what would Pompey do, and what Cæsar? |
| 28676 | What would you have me say? |
| 28676 | What would you have? |
| 28676 | What, at last, is the good thing, and what the evil thing, and how shall we gain the one and avoid the other? |
| 28676 | When did Sabbatarian observances begin to be required by the Word of God, and when again did they cease to be so? |
| 28676 | When no one can expect to find the thing sought for, who can seek diligently? |
| 28676 | When was your voice heard in the Forum? |
| 28676 | Where did he get the idea that it was a good thing not to torment the poor wretches that were subjected to his power? |
| 28676 | Where did he, who had been so greatly in debt before he went to Spain, get the million with which he bribed his adherents? |
| 28676 | Whither shall the men go if Antony refuses to obey them?" |
| 28676 | Who can strive to do good and not fight beasts? |
| 28676 | Who could that be but Cæsar? |
| 28676 | Who denies it? |
| 28676 | Who ever saw a fouler deed than that, or one more worthy scourges?" |
| 28676 | Who had counted more enemies in Rome than Marius? |
| 28676 | Who has ever heard me mentioned as having been conversant with that glorious affair? |
| 28676 | Who has left behind him so widely spread a breadth of literature? |
| 28676 | Who has made so many efforts, and has so well succeeded in them all? |
| 28676 | Who in the regions of the rising or setting sun has heard of our fame? |
| 28676 | Who is there can not do so much as that? |
| 28676 | Who is there can read them now so as accurately to decipher every intended detail? |
| 28676 | Who is there that would ride a new horse in preference to one tried-- one who knows your hand? |
| 28676 | Who knows anything about it? |
| 28676 | Who knows aught of that Crassus, or of that Antony, or of those Cæsars? |
| 28676 | Who should be so called but they who have been valiant, and lucky, and successful? |
| 28676 | Who told Cæsar of the foul words, and why were they read to him on this occasion? |
| 28676 | Who would have believed in him had he seemed to be so false? |
| 28676 | Whom did you seek to kill then? |
| 28676 | Whom was he not compelled to fear? |
| 28676 | Why all this delay, and turning backward and forward? |
| 28676 | Why did he travel so slowly at this time of the year? |
| 28676 | Why has all this been done within less than two years? |
| 28676 | Why not? |
| 28676 | Why not? |
| 28676 | Why should I tell you of it all? |
| 28676 | Why should he do this so late in the evening? |
| 28676 | Why should not a young man so furnished want a horse at Athens? |
| 28676 | Why should you and I be pardoned and not Ligarius? |
| 28676 | Why was he bound to obey Cicero, who was then at Rome, sending out his orders without official authority? |
| 28676 | Why was it that he took such an un- Roman pleasure in making the people happy? |
| 28676 | Will any one believe that he might not as well have consoled himself with one of his treatises on oratory? |
| 28676 | Will any one tell me that such a one has lived with the conviction that he might conquer the evils of the world by controlling his passions? |
| 28676 | Will your enmity against me be a recommendation for you to every evil citizen in Rome? |
| 28676 | With himself the matter was different:"In what else is there that I can do better?" |
| 28676 | With such an army as this do you expect me to do things like a Macedonicus? |
| 28676 | Would it not have been mean had he allowed those men to go and fight in Macedonia without him? |
| 28676 | Would they not say that he had remained away because he was Cæsar''s man? |
| 28676 | Would those objectionable epithets as to Pompey have been allowed to hold their ground had Pompey lived and had they been in his possession? |
| 28676 | [ 10] What hope could there be for an oligarchy when such things occurred in the Senate? |
| 28676 | [ 222]"Is he not responsible for the horrors of Dolabella? |
| 28676 | [ 227] Who can be afraid of Antony conquered who did not fear him in his strength? |
| 28676 | [ 22] As for himself, continued Cicero, if Cæsar had been his enemy, what of that? |
| 28676 | [ 277]*** You may snore, if you will, as well as sleep,"says Carneades;"what good will it do you? |
| 28676 | and having done so, had he done well in severing himself, immediately on Pompey''s death, from the Pompeians? |
| 28676 | and might it not be the case that he should be of service if he remained? |
| 28676 | and what courage? |
| 28676 | but can there be anything more unjust than, in discussing a matter, to remember all its evils and to forget all its merits? |
| 28676 | but did they recall Marius when he was fighting for the Republic? |
| 28676 | of what was the nature of the fight? |
| 28676 | says Ennius;"do n''t I know your voice?" |
| 28676 | when did you do any service either in peace or war? |
| 28676 | when has your counsel been put to the proof? |

| 28294 | And even when he honestly wishes to serve him, what can he do? |
| 28294 | And how can it be otherwise, when the Church, for reasons best known to itself, denies the people the use of the indispensable instruments? |
| 28294 | And how can it be otherwise? |
| 28294 | And how happens it, too, that the Pope is infallible in only one science,--even the theological? |
| 28294 | And how was this temple built? |
| 28294 | And to what? |
| 28294 | And was time to close upon a world shrouded in darkness, with nought but this feeble beacon burning amid the Alps? |

| 28294 | But how shall I describe or group the horrors that have darkened and desolated the Papal States from that hour to this? |
| 28294 | But how stands the fact? |
| 28294 | But of what subjects do these catechisms treat? |
| 28294 | But should we fall from that happy state, how are we to recover it? |
| 28294 | But this solitary pillar, which stands erect where so many temples have fallen, with what message is it freighted? |
| 28294 | But what could they do? |
| 28294 | But what is the fact? |
| 28294 | But what sort of farming are we to expect from such corporations as we find in the city of Rome? |
| 28294 | But where are you to look for justice,--justice in its unmixed, eternal purity,--if not at Rome? |
| 28294 | But where is the Rome of the Cæsars, that great, imperial, and invincible city, that during thirteen centuries ruled the world? |
| 28294 | But where was the key that could open that breast, and read the secrets locked up in it? |
| 28294 | But who is to make them? |
| 28294 | But why is this? |
| 28294 | But, pray tell me, why do you permit the cardinals or the Pope ever to die, when the Bambino can cure them?" |
| 28294 | By the way, why should the profession of astrology and the cognate arts be permitted to only one class of men? |
| 28294 | Can Infallibility not walk alone, that it uses crutches? |
| 28294 | Can an infallible man not know truth from error till first he has collected the votes of fallible bishops? |

| 28294 | Did he hasten to the prison, and beg his prisoner to come forth? |
| 28294 | Did it not come out of the foul box of Tetzel the indulgence- monger? |
| 28294 | Did no monk ever think of putting a stained window in the east, and compelling the sun to ogle the world through spectacles? |
| 28294 | Did not the Marshal Nouilles order a war against bankers? |
| 28294 | Did not the law of the suspected compel Protestants to nourish soldiers in their houses, as a punishment for refusing to go to mass? |
| 28294 | Did the ages seem long to him, or was it but as a few days since he left the earth? |
| 28294 | Did the heart of Gregory relent? |

| 28294 | During all this time, what way has been made by the Catholic nations? |
| 28294 | Had he been shot, or what had happened? |
| 28294 | Had he not often climbed this Capitol? |
| 28294 | Had not his feet pressed, times without number, this lava- paved road through the Forum? |
| 28294 | Has he marked that tall thin man who has just passed him,"Walking in beauty like the night?" |
| 28294 | Has he political papers?" |
| 28294 | Has its natural canal, the Po, dried up? |
| 28294 | Has the Creator set limits to the life of kingdoms, as to that of man? |
| 28294 | Have we considered the infinite degradation of defeat? |
| 28294 | Have we forgotten the famous declaration of Wiseman, that his grand end in the papal aggression was to introduce canon law? |
| 28294 | Her great Founder demanded that she should be tried by her fruits; and why should Rome be unwilling to submit to this test? |
| 28294 | How came these tombstones there, if early Christianity and the early martyrs be a fable? |
| 28294 | How can a worship in which no one ever joins edify any one? |
| 28294 | How can it be otherwise? |
| 28294 | How do they conduct that process at Rome? |
| 28294 | How is this? |
| 28294 | How many iron- workmen are there in the Papal States? |
| 28294 | How much is that? |
| 28294 | How was I to carry in my pocket such a cage of imps? |
| 28294 | How was I to sleep at night in their company? |
| 28294 | How, then, can He be regarded with confidence or love? |
| 28294 | I looked at the little man in the box, to see how he was taking it; but he was true to his own remark,"What is that to me?" |
| 28294 | I might have puzzled the boy by asking,"But who made the masons?" |
| 28294 | I passed three Sabbaths in Rome; I worshipped each Sabbath in the English Protestant chapel; and what did I see at the door of that chapel? |
| 28294 | I walked under it,--walked round it,--viewed it on all sides; but why should I describe what the engraver''s art has made so familiar all over Europe? |
| 28294 | I wondered whether that coast had looked as unkindly to Æneas, when first he cast anchor on it after long ploughing the deep? |
| 28294 | If so, what mean these dungeons? |
| 28294 | If the Pope believes in his own relics, what conceptions must he have of Peter? |
| 28294 | If there was no purgatory, how could the painters of an infallible Church ever have given so exact a representation of it? |
| 28294 | Is Christ''s Vicar a model to all governors? |
| 28294 | Is he not a priest, and is not Rome his own? |
| 28294 | Is he not the same man? |
| 28294 | Is it for the past you mourn?" |
| 28294 | Is it its noble monuments,--its fine palaces,--its august temples? |
| 28294 | Is it not strange, then, to confine with bolt and bar beings who intend anything but escape? |
| 28294 | Is it not that Christ is again offered in sacrifice, and that the pain he endures in being so propitiates God in your behalf? |
| 28294 | Is it so? |
| 28294 | Is it the Jesuits? |
| 28294 | Is it the Pope? |
| 28294 | Is it the cardinals? |
| 28294 | Is it when the decree has been voted by the Council that it becomes infallible? |
| 28294 | Is its soil less fertile? |
| 28294 | Is not the Papal Government manifestly sacrificing its own interests? |
| 28294 | Is not, then, the area of Europe that is covered with masses"_ the place where our Lord was crucified_?" |
| 28294 | Is that the account which we have of his ministry? |
| 28294 | Is there, then, no immortality in reserve for nations? |
| 28294 | Is this the man that did make the earth to tremble,--that did shake kingdoms,--that made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof?" |
| 28294 | Is this the"three- score- and- ten"of nations, beyond which they can not pass? |
| 28294 | Let any minister or missionary attempt to do so now, and what would be his fate? |
| 28294 | May not the same principle be applicable, in some extent, to our passage from earth into the world beyond? |
| 28294 | Must they continue to die? |
| 28294 | Nay, what is a nation''s duration, when weighed against thine? |
| 28294 | Now, why is this? |
| 28294 | Once was he chased from Rome; and now that he is returned, can he call Rome his own? |
| 28294 | One can hardly see it without asking,"What ails thee? |
| 28294 | One thousand? |
| 28294 | Or do ye descry from afar the coming of a better era? |
| 28294 | Or had the Church completed her triumphs, and finished her course? |
| 28294 | Or is it when it is confirmed by the Pope that it becomes infallible? |
| 28294 | Repents, does she? |
| 28294 | Shall God, indeed, the fowls and manna strew,-- My daily bread? |
| 28294 | She has grown pitiful, and tender hearted, has she? |
| 28294 | Should they take it into their head to creep out of my book, and buzz round my bed, would it not give me unpleasant dreams? |
| 28294 | Take the same Rome six months after his return, and how many do you find in it? |
| 28294 | Taking advantage of the greater timidity of the female mind, it has become a leading question with the confessor,"Does your husband read the Bible? |
| 28294 | The Church will stand, doubtless, because they tell us she is founded on a rock; but what will become of the State? |
| 28294 | The French Prefect, Mr Whiteside tells us, published a statistical account of Rome; and how many paupers does he say there are in it? |
| 28294 | The beads have been counted, and an Ave Maria said with each; and what more does the Church require? |
| 28294 | The case being so, where, I ask, are you entitled to look for justice, if not at Rome? |
| 28294 | The first floor is occupied as a granary; the second floor is occupied as a granary; the third floor,--how is it occupied,--the attic story? |
| 28294 | The first question that arises is, in what light do the priests in Italy regard their own system? |
| 28294 | Then, why should affluence, and the other accessories of power, have so uniformly a corrupting and dissolving effect upon society? |
| 28294 | To what region has she gone where barbarism and vice have not disappeared? |
| 28294 | To whom did she make her appeal? |
| 28294 | Violators of the law,--brigands, murderers? |
| 28294 | Was it then a reality, and not a dream? |
| 28294 | Was not the law of requisition for the public roads practised to prepare the roads for Queen Marie Leczinska? |
| 28294 | Was not the law of the maximum, which regulated prices, practised by the regency? |
| 28294 | Was the Argus of the Vatican asleep when this wolf broke into the fold? |
| 28294 | Were its cities filled with looms and forges, would not its people have more money to spend on masses and absolutions? |
| 28294 | Were my reader living in London or in Edinburgh, and wished to visit Chelsea or Portobello, how would he proceed? |
| 28294 | Were not the commissions called revolutionary tribunals first used against the Protestants? |
| 28294 | Were not the fusilades first used at the bidding of the priests to crush heresy? |
| 28294 | Were not the houses burned down of those who frequented Protestant preaching? |
| 28294 | Were not the properties of the Protestant emigrants confiscated? |
| 28294 | Were the priests afraid that, if withdrawn for a moment from the influence of their eye, a wail of woe would burst forth from these poor creatures? |
| 28294 | What are embattled cities and aisled cathedrals to the eternal hills, with their thunder- clouds, and their rising and setting suns? |
| 28294 | What can they do but beg? |
| 28294 | What do you see throughout the successive ages? |
| 28294 | What do you see? |
| 28294 | What enterprise or interest have a sisterhood of nuns to farm their property? |
| 28294 | What gulf divides them? |
| 28294 | What had he seen and felt these four thousand years? |
| 28294 | What has become of them? |
| 28294 | What is it that strikes you on first entering the"Holy City?" |
| 28294 | What is it which has produced this universal slavery? |
| 28294 | What is it, I repeat, that holds the whole body in subjection, from the Pope down to the friar? |
| 28294 | What is the Government of the Papal States, but just the Government of the Inquisition? |
| 28294 | What is to be done with the carcase? |
| 28294 | What matters it that the Adriatic is no longer the highway of the world''s merchandise, and that India is now closed to Venice? |
| 28294 | What matters it that, in rooting out British Protestantism, she should shed oceans of blood, and sound the death- knell of a whole nation? |
| 28294 | What skill or capital have a brotherhood of lazy monks, to enable them to cultivate their lands? |
| 28294 | What stronger condemnation of their system could they pronounce? |
| 28294 | What though the Pope reigns over a wasted land and a nation of beggars? |
| 28294 | What was I to do? |
| 28294 | What would our country be without its iron,--without its railroads, its steam- ships, its steam- looms, its cutlery, its domestic utensils? |
| 28294 | When Christianity entered Rome in the person of the Apostle Paul, did the tyrant of the Palatine strike her dumb? |
| 28294 | When Pio Nono fled from Rome to Gaeta, what was the amount of its population? |
| 28294 | When did Christ build dungeons, or gather_ sbirri_ about him, or send men to the galleys and the scaffold? |
| 28294 | When did they come into being, and of what stock are they sprung? |
| 28294 | When men can be awed neither by painted fiends nor real cannon, what is to awe them? |
| 28294 | Where are your subjects, Pio Nono? |
| 28294 | Where have they gone to? |
| 28294 | Whether, said I to myself, does Italy owe most to its rivers or to its Governments? |
| 28294 | Who can tell how much the firmness and perseverance of the more prominent actors in these struggles were owing to her wise and affectionate counsels? |
| 28294 | Who converted Italy into a barbarian and a slave? |
| 28294 | Who has not heard of the Pra de la Torre, in the valley of Angrona? |
| 28294 | Who is he, and what does he there? |
| 28294 | Who kindled that solitary lamp? |
| 28294 | Who through the deep, and o''er the desert plain Will aid and cheer me, and the path will show? |
| 28294 | Who, what, and where is he? |
| 28294 | Why did it not give that creed to the Church in the first century which it kept back till the sixteenth? |
| 28294 | Why did it permit so many men, in all preceding ages, to live in ignorance of so many things in which it could so easily have enlightened them? |
| 28294 | Why did it permit so many questions to be debated, which it could so easily have settled? |
| 28294 | Why did the Papists divide_ territorially_ the country? |
| 28294 | Why did they assume_ territorial_ titles? |
| 28294 | Why do ye not, ye glorious mountains, put on sackcloth, and mourn with the mourning nations beneath you? |
| 28294 | Why does it deal out truth piecemeal,--one dogma in this century, another in the next, and so on? |
| 28294 | Why does it not tell us all at once? |
| 28294 | Why erect new houses, when those already built will last their time and the world''s? |
| 28294 | Why is it that all persons and systems in this world of ours must die in order to enter into life? |
| 28294 | Why is it that all the functions of nature are beneficent? |
| 28294 | Why is this? |
| 28294 | Why is this? |
| 28294 | Why make provision for posterity, when there is to be none? |
| 28294 | Why preach liberty to men in chains? |
| 28294 | Why should Infallibility seek help, which it can not in the nature of things need? |
| 28294 | Why should the Pope need assessors and advisers? |
| 28294 | Why should they incur the toil of labouring or thinking in a world that is soon to pass away, and which is as good as ended already? |
| 28294 | Why these trials shrouded in secrecy? |
| 28294 | Why this clanking of chains, and that cry which has gone up to heaven, and which pleads for justice there? |
| 28294 | Why, then, is iron not imported into that country? |
| 28294 | Why, then, was it not till the sixteenth century that Infallibility gave anything like a fixed and complete creed to the Church? |
| 28294 | Why? |
| 28294 | Will any Romanist kindly explain this to us? |
| 28294 | Will his ride convert him into a heretic, or shake his faith in Peter''s successor? |
| 28294 | Will no kind hand draw the veil aside but for a moment? |
| 28294 | Will she now adopt half measures? |
| 28294 | Will she now falter and draw back,--she that never before feared enemy or spared foe? |
| 28294 | Will the reader accompany me to another and very different scene? |
| 28294 | Will the reader go back with me to the point where we began our excursion through Rome,--the Flaminian Gate? |
| 28294 | Will you permit it? |
| 28294 | Will you tamely sit still till it has put its foot on your neck, and its fetter on your arm? |
| 28294 | With such evidence before him as Italy furnishes, can any man doubt what the consequence would be of admitting this system into Britain? |
| 28294 | Would Christianity ever re- appear? |
| 28294 | Would any one have been at the pains to have done all this, or could he have done it without being detected? |
| 28294 | Would it not be better for itself were Italy covered with a prosperous agriculture and a flourishing trade? |
| 28294 | Would not Sodom have been spared had ten righteous men been found in it? |
| 28294 | Would they softly speak to us if they could? |
| 28294 | Yet why blame these poor people? |
| 28294 | You ask, why do these men remain in a Church which they see to be apostate? |
| 28294 | and dare I to implore Thy pillar and thy cloud to guide me, Lord? |
| 28294 | and is it not, to say the least, a needless waste of iron, in a country where iron is so very scarce and so very dear? |
| 28294 | and is the glory that mantles your summits the kindling of an inward joy at the prospect of coming freedom? |
| 28294 | and is the region over which he bears sway renowned throughout the earth as the most virtuous, the most happy, and the most prosperous region in it? |
| 28294 | and may not the very same picture of beauty and grandeur now before my eye be imprinted eternally on the memory of many of the blessed in Heaven? |
| 28294 | and what the fate of any Roman who might dare to visit him? |
| 28294 | and why do they so pertinaciously cling to these titles? |
| 28294 | and why not Piedmont, seeing the Waldensian Church was there? |
| 28294 | can a priest at any hour he pleases give existence to Him who exists from eternity? |
| 28294 | if such were Lombardy, what meant the Croat beside me, and the black eagle blazoned on the flag, that I saw floating on the Castle of Milan? |
| 28294 | in darkness, and in the bowels of the earth? |
| 28294 | might not the same response as of old be made to this disclaimer,"The voice of thy brother''s blood crieth unto me from the ground?" |
| 28294 | or do they regard it as indeed founded in truth, and clothed with the sanction of heaven? |
| 28294 | thought I, if this majestic image has so faded in the interval of a few moments, what will it be years after? |
| 28294 | what glory is this which begins to burn upon the crest of the snowy Alps? |
| 28294 | who will break my servile chain? |
| 28294 | worshipping, are they?" |
| 7380 | A company? 7380 A good- looking fellow like me-- why should I work? |
| 7380 | Ah, it wants cleaning, does n''t it? |
| 7380 | Am I an invalid, to drink Fiuggi water? |
| 7380 | And do you know who planted the trees? 7380 And that little ridge of stone,"says my companion,"--do you see it, jutting into the fields down there? |
| 7380 | And yet-- would you believe it? 7380 And you expect to keep your children alive if you send them to Cisterna?" |
| 7380 | Any damage? |
| 7380 | Anything? |
| 7380 | Are they elastic? |
| 7380 | Are those your two reasons? |
| 7380 | But what is an injunction? |
| 7380 | But what is an injunction? |
| 7380 | Ca n''t you guess? |
| 7380 | Count your ribs? 7380 Dead, is he? |
| 7380 | Did elephants scramble about these precipices and ravines? 7380 Did you ever give her a kiss?" |
| 7380 | Did you observe the illumination of the Falls, sir, last night? |
| 7380 | Do n''t you find the Germans a little prepotenti? |
| 7380 | Do you know, Sir, that you are in the war- zone-- the zona di difesa? |
| 7380 | Do you mean to say that elephants paddled across from Algiers in order to be assassinated by your old skeleton? 7380 Do you wonder,"he added,"at my preferring to be with you?" |
| 7380 | Does that beast of yours eat Christians? |
| 7380 | Drop your job for the sake of a few days? |
| 7380 | Elephants? |
| 7380 | Five o''clock? 7380 Fuyez?" |
| 7380 | Have you no sweetheart, Attilio? |
| 7380 | He? 7380 How about all those deserters?" |
| 7380 | How can one avoid seeing the beastly thing? |
| 7380 | How can you expect me to remember all that? |
| 7380 | How many more times do you wish me to make that clear? 7380 In that short time? |
| 7380 | Is that all? 7380 Nine years-- that old rag? |
| 7380 | No? 7380 No? |
| 7380 | Nobody, surely, need be any the wiser? |
| 7380 | Now, my good fellow,they seem to say,"are you blind?" |
| 7380 | Open about what? |
| 7380 | Ought I to be satisfied before I have learnt them? |
| 7380 | Strawberries? |
| 7380 | Supposing I stick it out and give satisfaction, shall I be able to interchange later into this department? 7380 The Massarenes"may have faults, but how many of our actual woman- scribes, for all their monkey- tricks of cleverness, could have written it? |
| 7380 | Then you have thought about it before? |
| 7380 | There may be? |
| 7380 | To England? |
| 7380 | To hurry up? 7380 Tried the War Office?" |
| 7380 | Well? |
| 7380 | What do you make of them? |
| 7380 | What have I been doing? |
| 7380 | What have we here? |
| 7380 | What is the matter? 7380 What is there to think about? |
| 7380 | What of it? |
| 7380 | What on earth brings you here? |
| 7380 | What? 7380 Where do you draw it?" |
| 7380 | Who ever heard of strawberries in Central Italy on the 31 July? 7380 Whom does one bribe?" |
| 7380 | Why to me? 7380 Why to you?" |
| 7380 | Why''fuyez''? |
| 7380 | Why? |
| 7380 | You sent him into the plains last summer? |
| 7380 | Your Lucullo, we may take it, was a Roman? |
| 7380 | ( How came this stone here? |
| 7380 | ... Was anything more precious than life?... |
| 7380 | A child of Niobe? |
| 7380 | A company, do n''t you see? |
| 7380 | A good tip on the stock exchange? |
| 7380 | A mechanic, are n''t you?" |
| 7380 | A pause...."Not like us? |
| 7380 | A small pointed beard, an eye- glass? |
| 7380 | A whim, a freak? |
| 7380 | About Armenia, I mean, and Poland?" |
| 7380 | After all, we were allies, were we not? |
| 7380 | Alatri What brought me to Alatri? |
| 7380 | All comparisons being odious, I turned the conversation by asking:"And that last one?" |
| 7380 | An injunction-- what did you say?" |
| 7380 | And Boecklin? |
| 7380 | And Frattura, that strange place-- what has happened to Frattura? |
| 7380 | And did you notice that the room was absolutely packed? |
| 7380 | And how many women, by the way, would have made a note of the particular quality of those macaroni? |
| 7380 | And if the moon were made of green cheese, we might all try to get hold of a slice of it, might n''t we?... |
| 7380 | And is it not the same with England? |
| 7380 | And the emerald lizard on the lower slopes? |
| 7380 | And then?" |
| 7380 | And therefore:"What did you do in the Great War, grandpapa?" |
| 7380 | And was I not the gentleman who had recently been to Orvinio? |
| 7380 | And what are they doing, these swarms of parasites? |
| 7380 | And what happened at Taranto? |
| 7380 | And what is the dominating trait of this old Scotsman? |
| 7380 | And what of that jovial red- bearded personage who scorned honest work and yet contrived to dress so well? |
| 7380 | And when you have them, where''s the difference? |
| 7380 | And whether legal proceedings of every kind would not tend to diminish? |
| 7380 | And why has she now flitted here, building herself this aerial bower above the old roofs of Rome? |
| 7380 | And why not? |
| 7380 | And why? |
| 7380 | And why? |
| 7380 | And would the taxpayer not profit by a reduction in their numbers? |
| 7380 | And yet-- is it possible? |
| 7380 | Another pause...."What would your mother say to you?" |
| 7380 | Anything else?" |
| 7380 | Are the natives descended from those mysterious Ligurians? |
| 7380 | Are the thistles of violet and red and blue and gold and silver as gorgeous as ever? |
| 7380 | Are they suffering? |
| 7380 | Are you feeling better? |
| 7380 | Are you satisfied?" |
| 7380 | Ask him, will you?" |
| 7380 | At night? |
| 7380 | At that hour therefore I appear with a shirt or something that requires a button-- would she mind? |
| 7380 | At this point I wake up, thoroughly exhausted, and say to myself:"Why seek his house? |
| 7380 | Bad? |
| 7380 | Besides, how far would one get, with Giulio? |
| 7380 | But if everybody thought like that, where would the Isonzo line be?" |
| 7380 | But since you wish to take that step, why choose the Casino which has a reputation to keep up? |
| 7380 | But supposing the publisher always objects to your choicest paragraphs?" |
| 7380 | But where shall a man still find those edible maccheroni-- those that were made in the Golden Age out of pre- war- time flour? |
| 7380 | But, as to substance, he contains too many nebulosities and abstractions for my taste; a veritable mist of them, out of which emerges-- what? |
| 7380 | By the way, have you tried the War Office?" |
| 7380 | By the way, what does Baedeker mean by speaking of the"excellent wines"of Scanno, where not a drop is grown? |
| 7380 | By what alterations? |
| 7380 | Call again, wo n''t you?" |
| 7380 | Can a man subscribe to the aspirations of a mob and yet think well of himself? |
| 7380 | Can he be black and white? |
| 7380 | Can it be that his son, a scraggy youth in those days, inherited not only the father''s name but his poetic mantle? |
| 7380 | Can it be the commercial Genoese, the gambling instinct? |
| 7380 | Can the"River Danube"still be heard flowing underground in the little cave of Saint Martin? |
| 7380 | Can they be found anywhere else? |
| 7380 | Can this wholesale change of attitude be brought about without a plot? |
| 7380 | Could I decipher German manuscripts? |
| 7380 | Could anything replace his life to him?... |
| 7380 | Could n''t I manage it? |
| 7380 | Could she guess who it is? |
| 7380 | Could this be the place which was famous in Pliny''s day for its grove of beeches? |
| 7380 | Could you perhaps tell me why Florentines, coming home from abroad, always rejoice to see it rising out of the plain?" |
| 7380 | Did I know anything about banking? |
| 7380 | Did I know anything about machinery? |
| 7380 | Did I like the boiled trout? |
| 7380 | Did I understand banking? |
| 7380 | Did Shelley ever walk in like humour along this canal? |
| 7380 | Did he never say:"You are making a fool of yourself"? |
| 7380 | Did he never see himself as others saw him? |
| 7380 | Did he not return home trembling all over and pale as death?... |
| 7380 | Did he not, one night, have a veritable fight with a legion of them which the wind blew from the graveyard into his face? |
| 7380 | Did not the curly- haired Giulio end by"stating"something to the same effect? |
| 7380 | Did the old road from Stabiae Athene temple go round the promontory and continue as far as Ierate along the southern slope of San Costanzo hill? |
| 7380 | Did we? |
| 7380 | Did you tell him he might----?" |
| 7380 | Do n''t you agree with me?" |
| 7380 | Do we not all now agree with what she wrote at the time of Queen Victoria and Joseph Chamberlain? |
| 7380 | Do you know of a place where a man can get eatable macaroni nowadays? |
| 7380 | Does it derive peculiar sustenance from the lime of the masonry? |
| 7380 | Does not a phrase like this reveal, even better than his own romances, the essentially non- human fibre of the writer''s mind? |
| 7380 | Does not this speak rather loudly in favour of Teuton enterprise? |
| 7380 | Down there, cutting up newspapers at twenty- two shillings a week? |
| 7380 | Especially with so many rich ladies in the world aching for somebody to relieve them of their spare cash?" |
| 7380 | For if you hide your plot, how shall the critic be expected to see it? |
| 7380 | For who-- not five thousand, but, say, five hundred years ago-- who would have thought of building a town on a spot like this? |
| 7380 | Full up? |
| 7380 | German influence in Italy-- why not? |
| 7380 | Good Lord, have I not explained that a thousand times already? |
| 7380 | Granting that both these propositions are correct, what should we expect to find? |
| 7380 | Have I not more than once been useful to her, nay, indispensable? |
| 7380 | He asked:"Do you know why Florentines, coming home from abroad, always rejoice to see that wonderful dome of theirs rising up from the plain?" |
| 7380 | He asked:"You two-- do you really understand each other?" |
| 7380 | He must not blame overmuch, else how shall his paper survive? |
| 7380 | Her own kitten? |
| 7380 | Holbein: did the landscape of Switzerland seduce him? |
| 7380 | Hotel Nazionale? |
| 7380 | How about those regulations? |
| 7380 | How are they doing our there, at Scanno? |
| 7380 | How came Mrs. Nichol to discover their whereabouts? |
| 7380 | How came Odysseus to Alatri? |
| 7380 | How came they to hit upon the ugliest tree, and the ugliest creeper, on earth? |
| 7380 | How can ten men perform duties which, in Italy, would require ten times as many? |
| 7380 | How comes it that this man, respectably equipped by birth, has grown so warped and atrophied, an animated bundle of deficiencies? |
| 7380 | How corrupt a person of principles? |
| 7380 | How did they get it? |
| 7380 | How did they get there? |
| 7380 | How did they manage it, these young Jews, all healthy- looking and of military age-- how did they contrive to keep out of the Army? |
| 7380 | How do you get into them?" |
| 7380 | How get there? |
| 7380 | How long are these expected to remain legible? |
| 7380 | How make it more presentable, more imposing? |
| 7380 | How many Calvinists of to- day would write like this? |
| 7380 | How many good fellows are now crawling about mutilated, converted into torso''s? |
| 7380 | How many of these perish? |
| 7380 | How many of these unhappy babies will grow to maturity? |
| 7380 | How many return infected? |
| 7380 | How predispose him in your favour? |
| 7380 | How shall they ever be built, if all the potential builders are loafing about in uniforms at the public expense? |
| 7380 | How so?" |
| 7380 | How was the thing done? |
| 7380 | How? |
| 7380 | How? |
| 7380 | Hungry or thirsty? |
| 7380 | I agreed-- what else could one do? |
| 7380 | I asked,"What has my country done for me?" |
| 7380 | I asked:"Supposing, Madame, you desired to end the war, how would you set about it?" |
| 7380 | I did not tell him to die, did I?".... |
| 7380 | I happened to have one of the few modern reprints of that stupid and ungainly book: would he accept it? |
| 7380 | I have been asked what does it matter who makes the discovery? |
| 7380 | I invite him to sit down and inquire: how about a bottle of Cesanese, now that we are alone? |
| 7380 | I look at him and ask myself; where have I seen that face before, so classic and sinewy and versatile? |
| 7380 | I relight my pipe, and then inquire:"Why not give her a kiss?" |
| 7380 | I suppose you are nearly due?" |
| 7380 | If I understood banking... why did they want bankers at this institution? |
| 7380 | If so, would I come to Bertolini''s hotel at once? |
| 7380 | Imagination-- why not? |
| 7380 | In how many more countries was I going to be arrested for one crime or another? |
| 7380 | Instead of that, what do you say to taking a nap?" |
| 7380 | Is he dead? |
| 7380 | Is he not dead?" |
| 7380 | Is it a question of climate, or national character? |
| 7380 | Is it not a feature peculiar to civilization that it thinks of everything save war? |
