40832 | Is the tunnel azotic?" |
40832 | Of what did our caravan consist when we left the Aruwimi?" |

40832 | Speak, say what torture shall he undergo?" |
40832 | Surely you''re not a confounded fool, man?" |
40832 | The Belgian stirred himself lazily at last, and asked--"Are they at a well?" |
40832 | They''ve got wind of our presence in the vicinity, therefore why not remain and fight?" |
40832 | This puzzled me, for had not Kheira said that the city was totally undefended? |
40832 | Was I not Balkis, Queen of Saba? |
40832 | Was it not in order to behold my countenance she had that evening requested me to remove my_ litham_? |
40832 | Was not the great store of gold and jewels given into my keeping that I should remain and watch them until I drew my last breath? |
40832 | Was that a threat, or a warning? |
40832 | What can I do-- how can I act to save my father?" |
40832 | What is its cause?" |
40832 | What might not be buried at the spot indicated by this curious relic of the great traveller? |
40832 | Who can tell? |
40832 | Why is she here, in the desert, so far from Algiers?" |
40832 | Wilt thou not remain here with my tribesmen, and escape?" |
40832 | You think they''re worthless?" |
40832 | he gasped,"and if thou hast discovered my secret-- what then?" |
40832 | hole? |
32461 | ''I am writing this in the harbor of Carthage--''"What? 32461 ''What?'' |
32461 | ''Who?'' 32461 A Moor? |
32461 | A groan? 32461 A horse?" |
32461 | A lion? |
32461 | A miracle? |
32461 | A revelation? |
32461 | A thousand sestertii? |
32461 | Again? |
32461 | Ah,cried Hilda, sorrowfully,"does the daughter of the great Theodoric write that?" |
32461 | Aha, so he is the hero of the day? 32461 Alone?" |
32461 | Am I omniscient? |
32461 | Among the Vandals? |
32461 | And Eugenia? |
32461 | And did you-- did he never tell others? |
32461 | And he? 32461 And my brother?" |
32461 | And no one could have previously removed the letter? |
32461 | And the Huns? |
32461 | And the King? |
32461 | And the Moorish prisoner? |
32461 | And the gladiators? |
32461 | And the hostages? |
32461 | And the ravisher? |
32461 | And the wild beasts? |
32461 | And where is Ammata-- where is Thrasaric buried? |
32461 | And where is Belisarius? |
32461 | And why do you not share them? |
32461 | And why, O Verus, why? 32461 And your brother?" |
32461 | And your conscience? |
32461 | Are we to tell the enemy that the Vandals fight only in the winter? |
32461 | Are you afraid, my little bird? |
32461 | Are you alone? |
32461 | Are you asleep? |
32461 | Are you faint? |
32461 | Are you unharmed, O King? |
32461 | Brother, surely this is not true? |
32461 | Brother- in- law Gelimer,she said in a curt, harsh tone,"is it true? |
32461 | But can a single family-- even though it is the reigning one-- stay the sinking of a whole nation? 32461 But how will you prove it?" |
32461 | But look-- what is the hero doing? 32461 But must not you return him to Modigisel?" |
32461 | But not as his pupil? |
32461 | But not by you? |
32461 | But shall Hilda also? |
32461 | But so completely muffled, my Aphrodite? |
32461 | But surely not to you? |
32461 | But tell me how came Ammata,--against Gelimer''s command, in spite of Thrasaric''s guard--? |
32461 | But the Ostrogoths? |
32461 | But the races in the Circus opposite? |
32461 | But what say you to the fact that this Pudentius, whom you, too, do not trust, is admitted to the city secretly at night-- by whom? 32461 But when you have her,"Astarte murmured under her breath to her companion,"you will set me wholly free?" |
32461 | But where are the foot soldiers? |
32461 | But--the speaker suddenly started--"who is the other at his right,--the one on the dun horse? |
32461 | But-- if I may ask--? |
32461 | Ca n''t you content yourself for the present, Astarte, with the less handsome Modigisel? |
32461 | Child, what is the matter? |
32461 | Did Verus counsel it? |
32461 | Did he do so really, brother? |
32461 | Did n''t you see? 32461 Did you buy him?" |
32461 | Did you hear, you nobles and people of the Vandal race? 32461 Did you see_ her_?" |
32461 | Did you understand that? 32461 Do I have you again?" |
32461 | Do I really have you with me once more? 32461 Do they dare? |
32461 | Do you believe it now, Fara? |
32461 | Do you dare? |
32461 | Do you hear that, brother? |
32461 | Do you hear, brother? |
32461 | Do you remember this little maid, my King? 32461 Do you see how pale he turns? |
32461 | Do you suppose I loved less truly and deeply and fervently than that delicate Greek child? 32461 Eugenia, do you want to go away?" |
32461 | For who can say of himself that he is free from sin? 32461 For years? |
32461 | Goda? 32461 Had the Moors started to come here?" |
32461 | Has it never rebuked you? 32461 Has the learned Cassiodorus grown childish? |
32461 | Have you finished the banner? |
32461 | Have you not changed your opinion? |
32461 | Have you yet received an answer from their king? |
32461 | He do a kind act? 32461 He hesitated?" |
32461 | He reflected; A Vandal warrior? |
32461 | Hilderic and Euages too? |
32461 | How can you say that? 32461 How do you, a woman, come with such a message?" |
32461 | How far is it? |
32461 | How far? 32461 How is his shoulder?" |
32461 | How so? |
32461 | How strong is your army in horsemen? |
32461 | I suppose he is fifty years old? 32461 I suppose it was at that time,"said Hilda,"that you composed that denunciation which condemns all love as sin?" |
32461 | I suppose that is intended to represent Bacchus, neighbor Laurus? |
32461 | I?--I? |
32461 | If you hated me so bitterly, desired to avenge your mother on me, why did you carry on this game for so many long years? 32461 In Ravenna, was it not?" |
32461 | Indeed he does love you, or why should the reckless noble have wooed you so humbly? |
32461 | Indeed? 32461 Indeed? |
32461 | Is Cabaon, the graybeard of countless years, among them? |
32461 | Is it any wonder, then, that we men do not seek to we d these pretentious dolls? 32461 Is n''t the cream stallion superb? |
32461 | Is that true? |
32461 | Is the pain severe? |
32461 | Is there no spy near? |
32461 | Is this his reward for to- night''s deed? |
32461 | Is this illness? |
32461 | Is this the way you obey your sovereign''s command? 32461 King of the Vandals, do you mean to give yourself up as a captive?" |
32461 | Modigisel dead? 32461 Murder? |
32461 | Must sin actually devour us? |
32461 | Nemesis? |
32461 | Now? 32461 O sister, does this little heart love so strongly, so fervently, so genuinely? |
32461 | Oh, can it be? |
32461 | Oh, lady, why are you so glorious? 32461 Omniscient grain- dealer,"I cried, rigid with amazement,"where did you learn that?" |
32461 | Or do you deny it? |
32461 | Pupil? 32461 Scarecrows, those two fellows, eh?" |
32461 | Shall Gelimer the Good visit the father''s guilt on the innocent son, like your terrible God? |
32461 | Shamefaced? 32461 Sinner?" |
32461 | So the poor boy''s sufferings are over? 32461 So-- this wonder-- belongs to-- you?" |
32461 | That letter? |
32461 | The King? |
32461 | The best horse? 32461 The hero? |
32461 | The lad? 32461 Then I begged Gibamund-- and so the stallion is yours, do you see? |
32461 | Then it is true? 32461 Then you do not know?" |
32461 | To live solely for Ammata? |
32461 | To whom does the treasure belong? |
32461 | To whom? |
32461 | Was I not right, friend Theudigesel? 32461 Was he always so?" |
32461 | Was not the whole affair a clever invention? |
32461 | We? 32461 Well, what does she say?" |
32461 | Well, what is it? |
32461 | Well, what? |
32461 | Well? |
32461 | Well? |
32461 | What am I to do with it? |
32461 | What are you doing here? |
32461 | What are you doing here? |
32461 | What demon? |
32461 | What do they reply? |
32461 | What do ye bring? |
32461 | What do you expect to gain by it? |
32461 | What do you mean, Astarte? 32461 What do you mean?" |
32461 | What do you mean? |
32461 | What do you say now, my Lord? |
32461 | What does he mean by that? |
32461 | What fresh misfortune has happened? |
32461 | What has happened, Publius Pudentius? |
32461 | What has happened? |
32461 | What is he kissing? 32461 What is it, Ammata?" |
32461 | What is there so remarkable about her? |
32461 | What is your name? |
32461 | What resulted from them? |
32461 | What shall we do to- morrow? |
32461 | What sins have we-- you and we two committed,Zazo added,"that we must perish?" |
32461 | What threat are you muttering in your beard? |
32461 | What troubles you, brother? |
32461 | What? 32461 What? |
32461 | What? 32461 What? |
32461 | What? 32461 What? |
32461 | What? 32461 What?" |
32461 | What? |
32461 | What? |
32461 | When did he arrive? |
32461 | Whence came you so suddenly? 32461 Where are the foot- soldiers?" |
32461 | Where are you going? 32461 Where are you going?" |
32461 | Where did Thrasaric get all this treasure? |
32461 | Where did you get him? |
32461 | Where is Decimum? 32461 Where is Genseric''s banner, Fara?" |
32461 | Where is Thrasabad? |
32461 | Where is he? 32461 Where is she going?" |
32461 | Where is the King? |
32461 | Where is the King? |
32461 | Where is the sentence? |
32461 | Where? 32461 Where?" |
32461 | Which do you mean, friend Hegelochus? 32461 Who are you, fellow?" |
32461 | Who dares to say so? 32461 Who has lavished gold, weapons, horses, like him?" |
32461 | Who has--? |
32461 | Who is that? |
32461 | Who is that? |
32461 | Who is yonder youth, the fair one? |
32461 | Who knows the inmost care of his own being? |
32461 | Who knows whether some secret sin does not burden you? |
32461 | Who were you, dainty child, that found a solitary death here? |
32461 | Who? |
32461 | Whom did you expect? |
32461 | Whose troops are the best drilled? |
32461 | Why are you stopping? 32461 Why do you do this so suddenly? |
32461 | Why do you so often tremble? |
32461 | Why do you waste time in talking to these rustics? 32461 Why must he know nothing about it?" |
32461 | Why not? |
32461 | Why? 32461 Why? |
32461 | Why? 32461 Why?" |
32461 | Why? |
32461 | Why? |
32461 | Will you wait till it has succeeded? |
32461 | Without Pudentius? |
32461 | Yet is it not a sin to love even this earthly thing so ardently? 32461 Yonder priest? |
32461 | You are from--? |
32461 | You are laughing, Astarte? |
32461 | You have seen her, have talked with her? |
32461 | You heard me? 32461 You here, Verus? |
32461 | You saw Eugenia, my daughter, before we left our house? |
32461 | You, brother? |
32461 | You? 32461 You_ will_ not cross?" |
32461 | ''Is this the loudly vaunted heroism of the Vandals? |
32461 | ''O Lord, wilt Thou really punish me for the sins of my ancestors?'' |
32461 | ''This child, too, the guiltless one? |
32461 | A child, or a girl just entering maidenhood? |
32461 | A foe?" |
32461 | A stone- hammer?" |
32461 | After a pause, repressing his vehemence, he asked humbly,--"Is this ambition a sin, my brother?" |
32461 | After all, is there a God dwelling in the clouds who wonderfully guides the destinies of men? |
32461 | After all, what does the Carthaginian care for either Vandals or Byzantines? |
32461 | Am I really, O Cethegus, to be permitted speedily to seek you in your Italy and help to free Rome by the aid of Huns and Herulians? |
32461 | An almost imperceptible smile-- did it mean pride? |
32461 | And Ammata-- is he innocent? |
32461 | And Thrasaric? |
32461 | And how did it escape you?" |
32461 | And how, even if they overcome the terrors of the ocean, is a landing to be made upon a hostile coast defended by the dreaded Germans? |
32461 | And the father--""Where is Eugenes? |
32461 | And the short- sword? |
32461 | And then since--""Well? |
32461 | And this luck-- is it blind? |
32461 | And through me to the Emperor? |
32461 | And was he justly imprisoned and deposed?" |
32461 | And who can tell whether they may not help?" |
32461 | And wo n''t pay either?" |
32461 | And your wound, Gibamund?" |
32461 | Are we never to rejoice?" |
32461 | Are you afraid, Eugenia?" |
32461 | Are you lying in front of the tent, grandfather?" |
32461 | Are you sneering? |
32461 | Are you worthy to lead this bride home now, from this place?" |
32461 | As he made no reply, but merely stood with laboring breath, Hilda repeated the question,--"What brings you to me, Thrasaric?" |
32461 | Bear the same torture, the same mortal anguish, for long hours? |
32461 | Both men started; had she understood their low whispers? |
32461 | But did you see how kindly his eyes shone as he soothed the frightened child?" |
32461 | But for how long a time? |
32461 | But have you forgotten the terrible words of menace-- about the iniquity of the fathers? |
32461 | But now--""Well?" |
32461 | But the gladiators?" |
32461 | But to whom does the horse belong?" |
32461 | But where are the Vandals? |
32461 | But, you obstinate little creature, you hypocrite,--why did you so long conceal and deny your feelings toward him from your father and your friend?" |
32461 | Can not you conceal it in your sleeve or girdle?" |
32461 | Can you understand, can you forgive that?" |
32461 | Dear Gelimer, why do you plunge yourself and all your followers into the deepest abyss of misery? |
32461 | Did I not fix yesterday as the final limit, after which the grove must be cleared and all its houses closed? |
32461 | Did I not order, before my departure for Hippo, that all these games and festivals should cease? |
32461 | Did you burn it?" |
32461 | Did you hear it?" |
32461 | Did you not feel the armor under Hilderic''s robe, wrest the dagger from his hand yourself?" |
32461 | Do I hold you in my embrace?" |
32461 | Do n''t you see it?" |
32461 | Do you ask, O Cethegus, how in the camp of Belisarius before Mount Pappua I have attained this singular view of the much- despised Hebrews? |
32461 | Do you feel the breath of the morning wind, the strong south- southeast? |
32461 | Do you happen to know where they are?" |
32461 | Do you hear how the Carthaginians are cheering him? |
32461 | Do you hear? |
32461 | Do you insult my color? |
32461 | Do you look at me in wonder? |
32461 | Do you marvel? |
32461 | Do you mean to surrender?" |
32461 | Do you remember? |
32461 | Do you see how he looks up at the windows of the palace near the Capitol? |
32461 | Do you see how his helmet-- now he is putting it on again-- is hacked by fresh blows? |
32461 | Do you see, brother? |
32461 | Do you see? |
32461 | Do you see? |
32461 | Do you see? |
32461 | Do you seek shelter here?'' |
32461 | Do you seek to draw upon your heads the wrath of Heaven? |
32461 | Do you still counsel, my brave duke, as you advised,--beyond the sea?" |
32461 | Do you suppose I have studied merely the_ verses_ of the Romans? |
32461 | Do you think I would betray Belisarius?" |
32461 | Do you want a third sign from God, unbeliever? |
32461 | Does my Verus know me so little?" |
32461 | Does the old man believe in the curse that rests upon the treasure? |
32461 | Does your foot ache, my Gibamund?" |
32461 | Follow him in battle loyally unto death?" |
32461 | For you can ask me:_ Why_? |
32461 | From cowardice? |
32461 | Gelimer shook his head mournfully:"Forget_ that_? |
32461 | General?" |
32461 | Genseric''s descendants shrink from the weight of their weapons''? |
32461 | Ha, is this a delusion? |
32461 | Had he deserved it? |
32461 | Had not the indignant girl, with the utmost justice, cast him off forever? |
32461 | Has he not saved me a second time? |
32461 | Has he, in spite of the capture of that letter, received warning and chosen another landing- place? |
32461 | Have you forgotten how his whole family--?" |
32461 | Have you no wine? |
32461 | Have you not understood even yet? |
32461 | Have you seen Gelimer?" |
32461 | He carries a spear as thick as a sapling, and on his shield-- What is the emblem? |
32461 | He evaded an answer by asking rudely:"What is there in the giant that attracts you as a magnet draws iron?" |
32461 | He followed the counsel, and now--""Now?" |
32461 | He has shown favor to many of our people, granted hospitality to many of our tribes; what return shall they make to their friend?" |
32461 | He has shown--""Oh, brother, brother,"exclaimed Ammata, tears streaming from his eyes,"how have I deserved this punishment?" |
32461 | Her heart is desolate; why should she live on?" |
32461 | Her heart is desolate; why should she live on?''" |
32461 | Hilda smiled bewitchingly:"Forgive? |
32461 | How can delusion ensnare such a mind?" |
32461 | How can such a nation endure? |
32461 | How could you counsel that, Verus?" |
32461 | How dare you destroy their pleasures, merely because you do not share them?" |
32461 | How is it possible?" |
32461 | How many are there, did you say?" |
32461 | How much had she heard-- understood? |
32461 | How much? |
32461 | How should the son and grandson love us?" |
32461 | How? |
32461 | How? |
32461 | I fear for myself? |
32461 | I made no promise, did I, Modigisel?" |
32461 | I mean, in which direction?" |
32461 | I must consult Verus--""Verus?" |
32461 | I since escaping the lion-- I have trusted you entirely, I laid my heart in your hands, you became my confessor; did you feel no shame then?" |
32461 | I suppose this is not all? |
32461 | I thought the secret letters from Carthage were to come, by disguised messengers, only to me? |
32461 | I wonder if the scholar knows the fable of how the horse, because he hated the stag, carried the man upon his back and hunted the stag to death? |
32461 | I?" |
32461 | If a judgment of God, as you called it, should so terribly overtake us? |
32461 | If he should advance still farther-- if he should reach me? |
32461 | If he_ should_ fall now? |
32461 | In the senator''s villa at Cirta-- what is his name? |
32461 | Is he dead? |
32461 | Is heroism called a sin?" |
32461 | Is it disgraceful to serve the same lord as Belisarius? |
32461 | Is it lying concealed behind one of the neighboring islands? |
32461 | Is it not better to serve the great Emperor at Constantinople, than to rule over a little band of starving people on Pappua? |
32461 | Is it the work of God, Who desired to punish the Vandals for the sins of their forefathers and for their own? |
32461 | Is she a free Roman? |
32461 | Is sin, too, an idle nothing?'' |
32461 | Is that the brow, the face, of a conqueror?" |
32461 | Is that true, brother?" |
32461 | Is this already hell that compasses me with such scorching heat, that sears my eyes, my throat, my chest, nay, my very soul? |
32461 | Is this the last word of Christianity?" |
32461 | Is this your trust in God, Gelimer? |
32461 | Is this, too, nothing? |
32461 | Is_ he_ to love us? |
32461 | It is hard to believe, is n''t it? |
32461 | It was she who-- What do you want, little man? |
32461 | King?" |
32461 | Merely to avoid serving the Emperor? |
32461 | Must the stronghold of the Emperor-- God bless the protector of justice-- at Constantinople become the third eyrie which is destroyed for their sake? |
32461 | My own people? |
32461 | Now? |
32461 | Often and often,--when I lay helpless in the lion''s power, you might have killed me, so why--?" |
32461 | Oh-- whose is this cold hand? |
32461 | One called after her:"Where are you going? |
32461 | Only--"and again he drew himself up--"who knows whether we may not err in believing the peril so close at hand? |
32461 | Or could a German really possess such contradictions of mind and character? |
32461 | Or had the wind borne it far away from the place where she lost it? |
32461 | Or is it lurking, on the watch for us, upon the coast of Africa? |
32461 | Or is it the heavy wine? |
32461 | Or shall I say he humiliates himself? |
32461 | Or shall he, after we have conquered, be kept continually at the court of Constantinople as a living pretext for attacking us again? |
32461 | Perhaps the two belonged together? |
32461 | Poison?" |
32461 | Repeat a prayer-- where is Verus?" |
32461 | Send Zazo there as soon as he returns-- before you go to the King; do you hear? |
32461 | Send away the whole fleet and the flower of the foot- soldiers? |
32461 | Shall Belisarius replace him on the throne of Carthage after we have fallen? |
32461 | Shall I owe you the rescue of my people, as well as the deliverance of my own poor life from the most horrible death?" |
32461 | Shall my strength fail when I am hastening to the man I love? |
32461 | Shall we conquer? |
32461 | Shall we now remain at sea, and perhaps yet meet those ships before which our men threaten to fly? |
32461 | She pressed his hand gratefully, whispering,"And to- morrow you will go with me to Hilda, wo n''t you? |
32461 | So he is the conqueror of the Moors?" |
32461 | So what is their use?" |
32461 | Speak, Gundomar; shall we fear King Gelimer?" |
32461 | Strange, is it not? |
32461 | Surely it was probable that the Princess had asked the girl the cause of her terror; and why should Eugenia keep silence? |
32461 | Tell me, little sister, do you really love him?" |
32461 | Ten sestertii?" |
32461 | The Barbarian surely ran against you, not you against him?" |
32461 | The King''s eyes opened wider in astonishment; Gibamund started up, but Hilda, turning pale, exclaimed,--"What? |
32461 | The ancient rune has often helped the Amalungi; why should it not aid the Asdings? |
32461 | The daughter of the Amalungi?" |
32461 | The priest''s hand?" |
32461 | The verses are--""Perhaps not smooth enough? |
32461 | They say, Why should we weary ourselves with drilling and arming? |
32461 | This Pudentius-- do you believe him our friend?" |
32461 | Those shameless songs--""What?" |
32461 | Through my brain darted the thought:''Woe betide you, what will be your fate?'' |
32461 | Throwing the gold at my feet, he said:''Now do you know the value of this noble animal? |
32461 | To put it more courteously: gnosticism, theosophy, or mysticism? |
32461 | Uplift one that has fallen so low?" |
32461 | Was it an illusion, indicative of approaching madness? |
32461 | Was it from fear, or really from conviction? |
32461 | Was my long- cherished distrust not merely the fruit, but the pretext,--inspired by my own impatient desire for the throne? |
32461 | We-- Roman citizens-- betting on the games of our tyrants?" |
32461 | Well, then, Hilda, have you taken a single Vandal girl to your heart as a friend? |
32461 | What are they doing?" |
32461 | What are you laughing at? |
32461 | What are you looking at?" |
32461 | What brings you to me?" |
32461 | What can he be doing there, on the edge of the desert? |
32461 | What did you whisper in the poor girl''s ear?" |
32461 | What do the Scriptures say? |
32461 | What do you mean to do?" |
32461 | What does that mean?" |
32461 | What does that mean?" |
32461 | What end awaited me? |
32461 | What fault can you find there?" |
32461 | What harm can the few Arians do in the Roman Empire? |
32461 | What have you boys to do with such things? |
32461 | What if she was not keeping a perfectly straight course? |
32461 | What injury have I done you?" |
32461 | What is Mercury shouting?" |
32461 | What is he doing?" |
32461 | What is its name? |
32461 | What is lying there directly across the way?" |
32461 | What kind of horse is it?" |
32461 | What must they do?" |
32461 | What news do you bring? |
32461 | What right has the Emperor to interfere with the succession to the Vandal throne? |
32461 | What say you, my friends? |
32461 | What shall be done? |
32461 | What sin have I committed to be forced to suffer thus?'' |
32461 | What threatened me? |
32461 | What use is a stone Aphrodite? |
32461 | What was that?" |
32461 | What was the hero''s reward for the new victory? |
32461 | What we have with us is scanty, foul, and putrid; and to march for days under the African sun with no water for men and beasts-- how will it end? |
32461 | What were the words? |
32461 | What? |
32461 | When shall we throw the dice?" |
32461 | When the Emperor may threaten us here on the mainland at any moment? |
32461 | Where and when shall we land? |
32461 | Where are the others? |
32461 | Where are the rowers?" |
32461 | Where are they hiding? |
32461 | Where are they?" |
32461 | Where are you?" |
32461 | Where is my money?" |
32461 | Where is the proof of Hilderic''s guilt? |
32461 | Where is the proof that treason is planned?" |
32461 | Where is this King of the Vandals dreaming? |
32461 | Where is this universally dreaded fleet hiding? |
32461 | Where now are your gloomy forebodings? |
32461 | Where was it?" |
32461 | Who but he has the right and the duty to bruise my conscience and, by warning me of the wrath of God, break the defiant pride of my spirit?" |
32461 | Who can read a girl''s heart? |
32461 | Who directed it?" |
32461 | Who gave this festival? |
32461 | Who in the two armies is as guiltless as this child? |
32461 | Who is just in the eyes of God? |
32461 | Who is_ he_?" |
32461 | Who knows how far away he may be?" |
32461 | Who knows? |
32461 | Who still thinks them wise? |
32461 | Who would--?" |
32461 | Whoever has once meddled with philosophy-- I shun it, but carry it ever in my brain-- will never again escape the questioning concerning the Why? |
32461 | Why did I never tell you how I loved you? |
32461 | Why should Cethegus write to me, now? |
32461 | Why should she spare him? |
32461 | Why? |
32461 | Why? |
32461 | Why? |
32461 | Why? |
32461 | Why?" |
32461 | Why?" |
32461 | Why?" |
32461 | Will it not recoil against you? |
32461 | Will you obey him? |
32461 | Will you shame your people-- your_ dead_ people-- still more?" |
32461 | Will you, like me, aid the valiant King? |
32461 | Will your bolt hit the mark? |
32461 | With a gloomy frown on his brow he raised his sharp, penetrating voice, fixing his eyes threateningly on Gelimer,--"Justice? |
32461 | With the King?" |
32461 | Without entering the church, as the others did?" |
32461 | Wo n''t you?" |
32461 | Yes, and you shall, you who are my nearest and dearest, now and here; who knows when the impending war will grant us another hour of leisure? |
32461 | Yet still more secret ones arrive, whose contents I learn only by chance? |
32461 | Yet you have fulfilled the prisoner''s wish and searched for it in the place he named?" |
32461 | You are placed here, Ammata, in the asylum of the church of the much- tortured Catholics? |
32461 | You are silent? |
32461 | You ask why?" |
32461 | You can forgive? |
32461 | You can still ask? |
32461 | You do not mean to say that?" |
32461 | You knew what would happen in the heavens? |
32461 | You nod? |
32461 | You still love me?" |
32461 | You turn away? |
32461 | You, Verus? |
32461 | You, the priest, counsel against pity and pardon?" |
32461 | You, too, Ammata; are you wounded?" |
32461 | Zazo went close up to his brother, laid his hand heavily on his shoulder, and said slowly:"And_ Verus_? |
32461 | a hippopotamus from the Nile, and a rhinoceros; an elephant and three leopards, a powerful tiger-- do you hear him? |
32461 | asked Eugenia, doubtfully; for how could any one be fairer than Hilda? |
32461 | what is that?" |
