15895Shall we ascend and gather it?
15895Shall we, because some days no feast awaits us, linger in the valley of doubt, and lose the bounties which his hand at other times has ready for us?

15895They applied next upon the opposite side, saying to the man who opened the door,"Can you feed and give shelter to three weary travelers?"
15895Was a good external appearance the sure sign of merit?
15895Was he not losing all of life''s joys and comforts in living thus alone only to amass such quantities of gold?

15895Was not this life indeed worth all the pain and heat of the flames, and the loss of its once statelier and loftier form?
15895Was she, after all, ahead of her sister?
15895What can I do with her added to my troubles?"
15895What can be the reason?"
15895What if the old sexton were dead?
15895Whither had she fled?
15895Who ever could have made one so lovely?
15895Who will go?"
15895Why did he send me hither?"
15895Why?"
15895With me?
15895With your blessing I shall remain here my lifetime; and when age comes on, and I can no longer serve the people, may I return?"
15895Would that suit you?"
15895did n''t I tell you we should see the world?"
15895or, like the youth, climb but half the distance, and cheat our eyes and souls of the view from the height?
15895so quick returned?"
15895what was that?
15895why did you send your child so far away to meet the harsh and cruel treatment of the world when your home abounds with plenty?"
36759An angel beside_ her_?
36759And did she give you one?
36759Can I give up my beautiful face, and become a poor little drudge, like Daisy?
36759Carry her home to her cave; why did you bring her to me?
36759Could n''t you do any better, Daisy, than this,she said,"for your mother''s friend and yours?
36759Did he say any thing about me?
36759Down where?
36759Have you-- have you? 36759 How could I know that?"
36759How could they?
36759Is this all your gratitude, Susan? 36759 Look where?
36759My sister? 36759 O, no-- what could tire him, Maud?
36759Silly girl, where are your spectacles?
36759Was she handsomer than I?
36759Well, what shall I give you for risking your precious life?
36759Well,said the shrill voice of the dame,"will you give me back my glasses now, and keep your tears?"
36759Were her eyes black, or blue like mine? 36759 What can this rock be made of?"
36759What dame?
36759What folly is the meddlesome old dame about, I wonder?
36759What more can he require of me?
36759What was the man''s name? 36759 What''s that-- what''s that?"
36759What''s that?
36759What, ours-- up in heaven?
36759Where was it?
36759Who wants a house that every one else can enjoy as much as we, and a father that is not ashamed to call every dirty beggar his child?
36759Why, Maud, what is this world but a great house that God has built for us? 36759 Why, am I not the same Daisy?
36759Why, have you found so many wicked people, my poor child?
36759Why?
36759Am I changing to a fairy, like the dame?"
36759And are you going to kill your child, out here, with the cold and damp, because your husband''s gone?
36759And can not He who made the lightning govern it?
36759And could you find my hut?
36759And if the beautiful smiling vision was real, why did it always float away?
36759And shall not Maud have some?
36759And what kind of dresses did they wear?"
36759And when you found your sister lying half dead by the roadside,--as you would have been but for my care,--what were you willing to do for her?
36759Are you not ashamed, when I am so hungry and tired, to give me such mean food?"
36759But how many stars do you suppose there are?"
36759But the dame quickly silenced her by asking,"Who has fed, and clothed, and taken care of you and all your kith and kin?
36759Could I find one of the paths, and so climb up to heaven, and find the beautiful Christ I am to love?"
36759Daisy looked up at him then, and asked,"But will you take them away from my mother?
36759Did he have wings?"
36759Did n''t the shop- keeper tell us, at the fair, that one little speck of a pearl cost more than my new gown?
36759Do n''t you know that, when Maud is drowned, there will be no one to separate you, and, as long as she lives, she will not let you be married?"
36759Do you dare tell me that she would marry a cowboy?"
36759Do you remember what the dame said, when she placed the spectacles on little Daisy''s breast?
36759Does he think more of them than he does of us?"
36759For the great God is her Father, and yours, and mine; she is my sister: should I not feel her grief?''"
36759Has the dame been here again?"
36759Have my glasses been of so little use that you put them in your pocket, and choose rather to look through tears?"
36759Have you thought yet what can be the fairy''s name?
36759If God can see through walls, ca n''t we, when we are looking after him?"
36759If the flowers have the same God with us, why do they always look so happy, and beautiful, and young?
36759If your brothers and sisters or parents die, whether by accident or sickness, are you sure that they would leave you such a comforter as Daisy had?
36759May I try?"
36759Now, what of the people?"
36759O, why do not all people find out what a cheap comfort it is to help each other?
36759Suppose we are wiser; why ca n''t we live as they do, mother, and think about God and heaven, instead of always ourselves?"
36759Then Maud would toss her head, and ask,"What is mother but an old woodcutter''s wife, that has worked, perhaps, in my father''s kitchen?"
36759Were any of them handsomer than the rest?
36759What did he say to you?"
36759What shall we name her?
36759Who ever saw God?
36759Who feeds the flowers, mother?"
36759Who gave you the gown on your back and the beauty in your cheeks?
36759Why did n''t you make the child wear my gift?"
36759Yet I may possibly save her; shall I go or stay?"
36759You would not tease a poor crazy man, I hope; and why, then, tease your brother or sister when their senses leave them for a little while?
36759are you sure?
36759do n''t you know I am hungry after all this work?
36759is it you?"
36759then it was I who tired him, and made him sorrowful,"thought Maud; then said, aloud,"But, Daisy, are you sure he took your hand?
20541But are you sure,replied he,"that our king does see us in this town?"
20541But do you think,said he that was fearful,"that he will accept any thing we can bring him now, when the best part of the day is over?"
20541But how can one who is so trembling and fearful as I am ever traffic for him?
20541Do you think that we shall ever get there?
20541Do you think that we shall ever get there?
20541What are those words,he asked his drowsy friend,"which burn so brightly in your book?"
20541Who are they?
20541After a while I heard the man speak to him, and he asked him in a grave, pitying voice,"What doest thou here?"
20541And how did it end?
20541And now, what is it which one suddenly sees, and, after gazing at it for a while, points out to another, and he to a third?
20541And why then is the man afraid?
20541And yet, why should this make such an one to fear?
20541And yet, why were they thus angry with him, if it were not for his master''s sake?
20541And"How,"he said in great fear,"how shall we ever stand that reckoning with our hands empty?"
20541But what was it which now filled this man with care?
20541But why are they come against this little town?
20541But why should this fill him with such fear?
20541Do not be fooled by this madman: what use is it to go to buy when the shops are all shut, and the market empty?"

20541Now, as he spoke, one listened eagerly to him; and whilst the others jeered, he said very gravely,"What can we do?
20541Now, when I had looked at them for a space, and wondered, my guide said to me,"Wouldst thou see how they enter on this plain?"
20541Surely he could trust the God who had kept him and blessed him all these twenty years, and who had led him now so far on his journey?
20541Then he said,"And wouldst thou see more?"
20541Then he turned to the other and said to him,--"And will not you stop either?

20541Then some of the other servants asked him, what he had stored up for the king?
20541What is it which so chains all eyes and fixes the attention of all?
20541What should we learn from this account of Jacob''s meeting Esau?
20541What was it, then, which pressed so heavily upon this man''s mind?
20541Who are meant by these children born in the wretched hovel?
20541Who are the children playing on the shores of the rocky island?
20541Who is a God like unto Thee, that pardonest iniquity?"
20541Who were those who were walking in the beautiful garden as its lords?
20541Why did not they begin with some of the great and royal cities?
20541Why should he fear now, when he was almost at his father''s tent?
20541Why should they come against this little town?
20541Why then does he fear so greatly?
20541Why was it not against Jerusalem, or Jezreel, or even against the newly rebuilt Jericho?
20541and,"How shall I, a loiterer, traffic for my lord?"
20541how shall we ever get over that sea?
20541we can never swim across it: had we not better go back, and play and be happy, until the time comes for us to die?"
43886And dost thou say so, my dear?
43886But did you not,said he,"when you were at a stand, pluck out and read your note?"
43886But,said Christian,"are there no turns or bends by which one who has not trod it may lose his way?"
43886Look, doth it not go straight on by the side of the way?
43886Look,said Christian,"did not I tell you so?
43886Well, then,said Faithful,"what is that one thing that we shall at this time found our speech on?"
43886And why should a man run such risks, just on the word of a strange guide?"
43886And with that he saw Evangelist come forth to meet him; and thus did he speak with Christian:"What dost thou here?"
43886At last one came to the door, and did ask who was there?
43886At last there came a grave man to the gate, whose name was Goodwill, who sought to know who was there?
43886At this Pliable said in sharp tones,"Is this the bliss you have told me all this while of?
43886But I pray, will you tell me why you ask me such things?"
43886But are these things to form our bliss?
43886But did you not see the house that stood there on the top of the hill, on the side of which Moses met you?"
43886But were you led by him?"
43886But what is the next thing by which you would prove to make known the work of grace in the heart?"
43886But when the man at the lodge, whose name is Watchful, saw that Christian made a halt, he did cry to him and say,"Is thy strength so small?
43886But, my good mate, do you know the way to this place?"
43886But, when I got free from the shock, I would know why it was he dealt with me so?
43886Did not the Shepherds bid us take heed of the Flatterer?
43886Hath it not let some in their way?"
43886He did ask them,"Why?"
43886He said, too, that faith made a man grow strange to the great, and made him own and prize the base:''and is not this,''said he,''a shame?''"
43886He then, in this gear, came out with his friends to the gate, and there he would know of the Porter"if he saw one pass by?"
43886He would know, too,"If the Shepherds did not bid them take heed of the Flatterer?"
43886How far do you think he may be on the road?"
43886How is it, then, that thou hast run off from thy king?
43886How shall we get to share in them?"
43886I then saw a man whose name was Evangelist come to him and ask,"Why dost thou cry?"
43886I then would know what kin he had?
43886If we have such ill speed as we first set out, what may we not look for ere the time we get to the end of our road?
43886In what, now, is thy state a whit more good than ours?"
43886Is there hope?
43886It will not be said then,''Did you have faith?''
43886Look right in front of thee; dost thou see this strait way?
43886May I now go back and go up to the small gate?
43886Now, as they came up to these parts, lo, the Gardener stood in the way; to whom the men said,"Whose fine vine and fruit grounds are these?"
43886Shall I not be sent back from thence in shame?"
43886So Christian came up with him once more, and said,"Sir, is not your name Mr. By- ends, of Fair- speech?"
43886So they drew up nigh him, who thus held speech with them:_ Chr._--"Sirs, whence came you, and where do you go?"
43886So when he was got in, the man of the gate said to him,"Who told him to come to that place?"
43886The Porter, in like way, sought to know whence he was; and to what place he was bound?
43886The Shepherds then said,"Did you not see, a short way down these mounts, a stile that leads to a mead on the left hand of this way?"
43886The man read it, and said,"To what place must I flee?"
43886The name of the one was Timorous, and of the next Mistrust; to whom Christian said,"Sirs, what doth ail you?
43886Then Christian did call to Demas, and said,"Is not the way rife with risks?
43886Then Christian did call to him,"Come you on, man: why do you stay back so?"
43886Then Faithful gave a step forth once more, and said to Talkative,"Come, what cheer?
43886Then I did ask his name, and where he dwelt?
43886Then did Christian muse thus:"These beasts range in the night for their prey; and if they should meet with me in the dark, how should I shift them?
43886Then did the men talk of the best course to take; and thus they spoke:"Friend,"said Christian,"what shall we do?
43886Then he did ask them and said,"Where did you lie the last night?"
43886Then said Charity to Christian,"Have you bairns, and have you a wife?"
43886Then said Christian to Hopeful( but in a soft voice),"Did I not tell you he sought to shirk us?
43886Then said Christian to the Porter,"Sir, what house is this?
43886Then said Christian,"Is there no hope, but you must be kept in the steel cage of gloom?"
43886Then said Christian,"What doth this mean?"
43886Then said Christian,"What means this?"
43886Then said Christian,"What means this?"
43886Then said Christian,"What means this?"
43886Then said Christian,"What means this?"
43886Then said Christian,"Why doth this man thus shake?"
43886Then said Evangelist to him,"Art not thou the man that I found in tears back of the walls of the City of Destruction?"
43886Then said Evangelist,"Do you see yon small gate?"
43886Then said Evangelist,"How did it fare with you, my friends, since the time we last did part?
43886Then said Evangelist,"If this be thy state, why dost thou stand still?"
43886Then said Evangelist,"Why not will to die, since this life is full of ills?"
43886Then said Hopeful to the Shepherds,"I see that these had on them, each one, a show of the road, as we have now, had they not?"
43886Then said Pliable,"Ah, friend Christian, where are you now?"
43886Then said he,"Friends, for what are ye come?"
43886Then said the Interpreter to Christian,"Hast thou thought well on all these things?"
43886Then said the Shepherds, each to his friend,"Shall we show these wights with staves some strange sights?"
43886Then said the old man,''Thou dost look like a frank soul: wilt thou stay and dwell with me for the pay that I shall give thee?''
43886These men then did ask,"What must we do in this pure place?"
43886This done, he spoke to Evangelist in words and sense thus:_ Chr._--"Sir, what think you?
43886To this man Faithful spoke in such wise:"Friend, to what place dost thou go?
43886Well, when they, as I said, did greet in turn, Mr. Money- love said to Mr. By- ends,"Who are they on the road right in front of us?"
43886What shall we do to be rid of him?"
43886When Christ said,''Do you know all these things?''
43886When I came to the foot of the hill known as Difficulty, I met with an old man, who would know what I was, and to what place I was bound?
43886When he was come to the place where they were, he did ask them whence they came, and what they did there?
43886[ Illustration: Faithful saw a man whose name is Talkative, who said,"Friend, to what place dost thou go?

43886_ Char._--"But did you not with your vain life damp all that you by words made use of as force to bring them off with you?"

43886_ Chr._--"But how didst thou get in this state?"
43886_ Chr._--"But how do you think to get in at the gate?
43886_ Chr._--"But what have you to show at that gate, that the gate should be flung wide to you?"
43886_ Chr._--"But what was it that made you so quake at this sight?"
43886_ Chr._--"But will it not be thought a wrong done to the Lord of the town where we are bound, thus to break his law which he hath made known to us?"
43886_ Chr._--"But, pray tell me, did you meet with no one in the Vale of Humility?"
43886_ Chr._--"Do you not know that one of the Shepherds bid us take heed of the Enchanted Ground?

43886_ Chr._--"Pray did you know him?"
43886_ Chr._--"Pray, sir, what may I call you?"
43886_ Chr._--"Sir, which is the way to this good man''s house?"
43886_ Chr._--"Well, and what close came the old man and you to at last?"
43886_ Chr._--"Well, but what art thou now?"
43886_ Chr._--"Why came you not in at the gate which stands at the head of the way?"
43886_ Chr._--"Why, what did he say to you?"
43886_ Chr._--"You say true: but did you meet none else in that vale?"

43886_ Fai._--"Say you so?
43886_ Fai._--"Well, if you will not, will you give me leave to do it?"
43886_ Fai._--"What would you have me to do?"
43886_ Good._--"But did none of them go in quest of you, to urge you to go back?"
43886_ Good._--"But how is it that no one came with you?"
43886_ Good._--"But why did he not come through?"
43886_ Good._--"Did one or more of them know that you meant to come here?"

43886_ Pi._--"But did you not come by the house of the Interpreter?"

43886by what tongue or pen can such vast joy be told?
43886dost thou go to the blest land?"
43886dost thou go to the blest land?"
43886how is it now?"
43886how should I get free from their fangs?
43886said Faithful to his friend,"who comes yon?"
43886said Obstinate,"I heed not your book: will you go back with us or no?"
43886said Obstinate,"and leave our friends and all that brings us joy and ease?"
43886what have you met with, and what has been your life?"
43886why did they not stay; that we might have gone on with them?
20634And could you not live,said the Fiend,"without encouraging dissipation and gaming, uncleanness, drunkenness, oaths, quarrels, slander and lies?
20634But confess villain, what did you say?
20634But how is it,said I,"that Belial does not wish to have these adorers himself?"
20634Come nearer,said he,"what is the meaning of this?"
20634Dear me,said I,"what are you?"
20634Did he say his prayers before he went to sleep?
20634Did you not see sparks of our fire in the tongues of the swearers and of the scolds, when seeking to get their husbands home? 20634 For what purpose,"said I,"are the damsels standing yonder, and who are they?"
20634For what reason is the princess keeping these thieves about her?
20634Had we not best depart,said I to my companion,"lest they should find us?"
20634Has he any crowned heads under him?
20634How came they out?
20634How can that be?
20634How did you come hither, sirrah?
20634How should we live then?
20634How, my lord,said I,"will your illustrious majesty, which superintends kings and kingdoms, condescend to associate with such a poor worm as myself?"
20634I only lose,said he,"a very small portion of it, and if I should lose the whole, pray what loss is it?
20634Is it here that Emmanuel keeps his court?
20634Is there war then in Hell?
20634Mercy upon us,said I,"what causes these people to complain more than the rest, when they have neither torture nor devil near them?"
20634Now pray, what place is the castle yonder in the north?
20634Please to inform me, master Sleep,said I,"to what place these doors open?"
20634Please to inform us,said one to the watchman,"to what place this road is leading?"
20634Pray tell me,said I,"who are dwelling in these streets?
20634Pray, has this great, distracted city,said I,"any better name than_ Bedlam the Great_?"
20634Pray, my lord,said I,"how can you call those illustrious people greater thieves than robbers on the highway?"
20634Pray, my lord,said I,"if it please you, what is this wonderful place?"
20634Pray, my lord,said I,"may we approach and take a more minute view of this magnificent palace?"
20634Pray, my lord,said I,"what is the name of this putrid river?"
20634Pray, sir,said I, squealing,"what have I done to you, that you bring that witch here to suffocate me?"
20634Pray, sir,said I,"what dungeon of a place is this?"
20634Pray, sir,said I,"what is the meaning of female rider?"
20634Pray, sir,said I,"what kind of men are these?"
20634Pray,said I"who are these?"
20634Pray,said I,"what is the name of that world?"
20634Pray,said I,"where now is the_ Church of England_?"
20634Pray,said one red recorder,"what have you to advance against us?"
20634Sirrah,said Death,"why did you not keep on the other side of the gulf where all are kings?
20634To what place are those fools seeking to get?
20634To whom,said I,"do these rags belong?"
20634Very fair, in troth,said the confessor,"and who was the father?"
20634What are the names,said I,"of those three deceivers?"
20634What are they,said I,"compared with those who are under Belial the Great?
20634What are they?
20634What are those great streets called?
20634What do they call you?
20634What have you brought there?
20634What have you there?
20634What is the matter?
20634What is the matter?
20634What is the matter?
20634What is to be done,said he,"in order to pass through?"
20634What is your business here?
20634What is your name?
20634What place is this?
20634What proof of your dignity have you?
20634What secrets?
20634What would you be worth, Cerberus, with your excessive sucking, if it were not for the assistance of Mammon? 20634 What?"
20634Who are they?
20634Who are you?
20634Who art thou, my lord?
20634Who is here?
20634Who,he cried,"will say, that I have broken one of these?"
20634Who,said I,"are the men above dressed in black?"
20634Why is this here at the entrance of the road?
20634With the permission of the court,said the fellow,"if the thief had got the gift from_ above_ to see me, could I help it?
20634Woe is me,said I,"are all that are contained therein people of perdition?"
20634And as for the poet, where is the fish which is able to swallow like him?
20634And as for tranquillity, where is it?
20634And can not I, who cheated_ Eve_ in_ Paradise_, vanquish_ Anne_ in_ Britain_?
20634And have ye merely acted according to your knowledge and your opportunities?
20634And if it were not for_ his_ sake, what king would receive it, in Britain especially?
20634And what is the kingdom of_ Mammon_, but a branch of my vast domain?
20634And who, but for the sake of Mammon, would carry it to every corner of the kingdom?
20634Art thou unacquainted with Hell, when the house thou didst keep was Hell?
20634At fair or market, sessions or elections, or any other assemblage of people, who has more subjects?
20634Because if people were to see_ sin_ in its own_ color_, and under its own_ name_, who would ever come in contact with it?
20634Because who is there here content with his station?
20634But tell me,"said he,"whether there are at present, any of those fellows upon the earth?"
20634But where is your offering to the cloister?"
20634Can you carry the pedigree of Gog and Magog, and the genealogy of Brutus ap Sylfius, up to a millenium previous to the fall of Troy?
20634Can you narrate when, and what will be the end of the combats betwixt the lion and the eagle, and betwixt the dragon and the red deer?"
20634Did you not come all into the world by the same way?"
20634Do you imagine that I, who despoiled the whole world, can not at present give counsel which will serve for a paltry islet?
20634Do you see yonder,"said he,"the rent which you made in the church, that you might go out of it, without the slightest cause or reason?
20634For what is Tobacco but one of my meanest instruments, to carry bewilderment into the brain?
20634For who ever swallows the hook without some bait?
20634From Death then is there no relief?
20634Have you not been out, sirrah, for ten years, and yet you bring us but one?
20634He is a great prince, with thousands of princes under him-- what were Caesar or Alexander the Great compared with him?
20634How many a crafty old miser have I not deluded hither, along paths more difficult than those which lead to the kingdom of Happiness?
20634How many books have you not seen?
20634How many graves, how many sculls, how many diseases, how many messages and signs have you not had?
20634How many sermons have you not heard upon the mortality of man?
20634I enquired of my conductor what this horrible thing might be?
20634I then turned a little to the left hand, where there was a cell more light than any one which I had yet seen in Hell, and enquired what place it was?
20634I turned to see what it was; but perceiving nothing but horned goblins, I enquired of my guide whether there were cuckolds amongst the devils?
20634Is not this a shameful injury?"
20634Is there a justice of the peace here?"
20634Madam, do you wish for an easy cushion?
20634Must not every trade live?"
20634Nevertheless, if it were not for the skill of my daughter_ Hypocrisy_, in coloring and disguising, who would ever swallow one of your hooks?
20634Notwithstanding, all the service which the Pope has rendered us there for a long time, and Oliver for some years past, how far are we from our object?
20634Now observe how many masks, how many twists, Hypocrisy has given to the face of the truth?
20634Now, why did you not devote some of that time to learning to read and pray?
20634Only a very few turned towards them once, some of whom asked,"flee from what?"
20634Or who in such straits, would permit themselves to be distracted either by_ Hypocrisy or Inconsiderateness_?
20634Please to tell me, has a lawyer more similitude to a raven, than a poet to a whale?
20634Pray what evil have we here that you had not at home, the punishment solely excepted?
20634Said Death,"did you never keep any one from his work, and cause him to lose his time; or did you never keep people from church?
20634Said one,"is this the gate of Life?"
20634Some mocked them, others threatened to stone them unless they ceased their unmannerly prate; but some few asked,"whither shall we fly?"
20634Was it not through_ her_ that I cheated the first woman?
20634Was there not plenty of the unquenchable fire in the mouth of the drunkard, and in the eyes of the brawler?
20634What are sculls, but my visage?
20634What are the Turk and old Lewis of France, but his servants?
20634What are the tenets which they hold; and to what nation do they belong?"
20634What does your daily food consist of but dead creatures?
20634What have I done to cause you to defame me in every thing, who have a hand in nothing, and to blame me for that of which I am entirely ignorant?"
20634What have I done to you?
20634What if I be greater than the kings of the earth, and higher than many of the countless potentates of heaven?
20634What is the language which they speak?
20634What is the tailor who cabbages a piece of cloth, to the great man who takes a piece out of the parish common?
20634What is your Sleep, but my own brother?
20634What merchant would ever fetch your leaves from India, through so many perils, if it were not for the sake of Mammon?
20634What more could one of ourselves have done?"
20634When was I ever slack at my work?
20634Who devoted many a Sunday afternoon to vain prating about worldly things, or to sleep, instead of meditation and prayer?
20634Who on Sundays used to come with me to the tavern, instead of going with the parson to church?
20634Would you have the Truth render his word false, for the sake of obtaining the company of such filthy dross as you?
20634Ye scholars, and ye lawyer crowds, Who are as gods reputed wise; Can ye from all the lore ye know,''Gainst Death bestow some good advice?
20634and now, what do you want here?
20634and who obtains it?
20634angel of patience,"said Lucifer,"are you come?
20634can you sing in the four- and- twenty measures?
20634do you take my name in vain?"
20634is not all blood of the same color?
20634on what side pray?"
20634said I,"must I die?"
20634said he,"what peace do you deserve, who will not let people rest in their graves?"
20634said the king;"and who are these?"
20634what is the reason that ye can not let me be at rest now that I am dead, and all is over with me?
20634what shall we do now?
20634who ever would believe a story if there were not some measure of_ truth_ mingled with the falsehood; or some semblance of_ good_ to shade the_ evil_?
20634who has more power and authority than I?
20634woe is me,"said one of the three,"who asked him to trouble himself?"
20634would you have mercy without doing any thing to obtain it?
20634{ 84}"In the name of wonder,"said I,"what sort of creatures may these be?"
52617A woman, so farre stept into yeeres, as shee is, to give such an evill example to other younger women, is it not a sinne beyond all sufferance?
52617Afterward, he demanded of him, how much displeasing to God hee had beene in the sinne of Gluttony?
52617Alas deare Love( quoth_ Pedro_) with what reason can you wish my tarrying here?
52617Alas deare Love, what an answer is this?
52617Alas deere sonne, wast thou sicke for this?
52617Alas my loving friend, why shouldst thou undertake such a tedious travell, and so great a charge, as thy journey from hence to Rome will cost thee?
52617Am I dead?
52617Am I not as good a Gentlewoman borne, as shee is?
52617Am I so disfigured, that thou knowest me not?

52617And thou, upon the suggestion of this foule lie, what didst thou to thy Wife?
52617And what know I( Lady) whether among the choise of friends, it may fit your fancy to doe the like?
52617And what man is able to forbeare it, beholding the dayly actions of men to be so dishonest?
52617And what plenty of riches, were left without any true successours?
52617And whereon do we dreame?
52617And who I pray you( quoth she) did chastise you so severely?
52617And who can deny, but that it is much more convenient, to commisserate the distresse of Ladies and Gentlewomen, then the more able condition of men?
52617And who would not have done the like, hearing a man to speake in that manner, and being upon the very point of death?
52617And why art thou moved to such compassion of us?
52617And why should others swimme in joy, And no heart drowned in annoy, Like mine poore amorous Maide?
52617And yet Madame, shall I have none other answere from you, but your perpetuall silence?
52617Are the Spirits of Alchimy walking in the house, that we can not lye quietly in our beds?
52617As how?
52617At length Fryar_ Albert_ demanded of her, whether shee had any amorous friend or lover?
52617Bad man as thou art, how canst thou deny a manifest trueth?
52617Bad things Father?
52617Beeing let downe to the ground, the Judge still demaunded of him, whether the accusations against him were true, or no?
52617But faire sister, I desire to be resolved in one thing, to wit, by what meanes you had understanding of my being in this City?
52617But how farre, saide_ Ferando_, is Purgatory distant from our native Countries?
52617But how is it possible to be done?
52617But how?
52617But if I accomplish the cure, and set your Highnesse free from all further greevance, what recompence then shall remaine to me?
52617But mine Host( quoth_ Alessandro_) how can I passe thorow my Lords Chamber, which is so little, as it would not allowe Lodging for any of his Monkes?
52617But tell me now concerning Avarice, hast thou sinned therein?
52617But tell me wicked man, where wast thou this morning, before breake of the day?
52617But tell me, what was the occasion whereby you conceived such hatred against him?
52617But what meanes shal we make for men?
52617But what shall I say to them, who take so great compassion on my povertie, as they advise me to get something, whereon to make my living?
52617But why do I waste time in such extent of words?
52617But( quoth the Confessour) hast thou done nothing else on that day?
52617Can an inordinate appetite, cause thee to be carelesse of thine honour, and of him that loves thee as his owne life?
52617Can not our Daughter sleepe, except shee heare the Nightingale sing?
52617Can our weake and crazie bodies, feele the frolicke temper of hers?
52617Can the Gods be toucht with the apprehension of our fraile passions?
52617Can we devise no ease for this foule and noysome inconvenience?
52617Can you not distinguish between mine, and these other common beauties?
52617Can you then be so cruell, as to denie me so small a thing, without regarde of the maine debt, wherein you stand engaged to your_ Ocharus_?
52617Canst thou rather affect to abide here, for the pleasures of this man, and so sin capitally, then to live at_ Pisa_ in the state of my wife?
52617Canst thou then find in thine heart to let them die, whom thou rather oughtest to honour, and recompence with no meane rewards?
52617Canst thou( quoth the Monke) prayse and commend her now, using her so villainously in thy life time?
52617Certaine men of the City hearing these words, entred into further questioning with him, demanding, how he knew that the man had no such imperfection?
52617Concerning them that touch me with mine age; Do not they know, that although Leeks have white heads, yet the blades of them are alwaies greene?
52617Did I not tel you Father_ Albert_, that my beauty was celestiall?
52617Did he at any time offend you?
52617Divers times the President had taken notice thereof, and was so well pleased with the Lads behaviour, that he enquired, of whence he was?
52617Do I wake or sleepe?
52617Do you thinke he will eate you?
52617Doe dead men eate and drinke?
52617Doe not you know, that wee have promised our virginity to God?
52617Doe you know this Ring Madam?
52617Doest thou compare me with the wife of_ Herculano_, who is an olde, dissembling hypocrite?
52617Doest thou think then that shee hath any power to containe?
52617Doth it not appeare unto you Madam, that I have as yet done enough, whereby to be thought a worthy Husband, for the royall Daughter of_ Denmarke_?
52617Eares, how are you deprivde of sweete attention?
52617Eyes, can ye not refraine your hourely weeping?
52617Faire Virgin, if you cause me to breake my setled determination, and faile of curing mee, what can you expect to follow thereon?
52617Faire daughter( quoth he) whether wander you at such an unseasonable houre, and all alone in a place so desolate?
52617Faire_ Catharina_, I hope thou wilt not let me die for thy love?
52617Father, are these naughty things made of themselves?
52617Gentle Princesse; wherefore do you thus hide your selfe from mee?
52617Goe on boldly, replied_ Aldobrandino_, doest thou thinke that I regard any such praters?
52617Good man, thou seemest to me to be a Pilgrim stranger; what doest thou know, either concerning my peace, or mine affliction?
52617Hast thou heard any thing therein( quoth the Inquisitor) whereof thou art doubtfull, or desirest to be further informed?
52617Hast thou no regard of thine owne honour, thy Parents,& friends?
52617Have I not satisfied the Kings owne Ordinance, by delivering his Daughter, as already I have done?
52617How commeth it to passe, that this fellow should be so miraculously cured, that never truly was any way impotent?
52617How commeth this to passe?
52617How farre then voide of understanding shall I shew my selfe, to rob a Gentleman of his sole felicity, having no other joy or comfort left him?
52617How hapned that?
52617How is this?
52617How is this?
52617How may that be done, saide the woman, he being alive?
52617How now Sir_ Domine_?
52617How now Sonne?
52617How now man?
52617How now quoth_ Ricciardo_?
52617How now( quoth_ Andrea_) doest thou not understand what I say?
52617How now, replied the Officer of the Guard?
52617How now_ Hermelina_?
52617How will you then maintaine, that I have throwne my liking on a man of base condition?
52617How?
52617I know that well Daughter, replyed the Mother; but is it in my power, to make the weather warme or coole, as thou perhaps wouldst have it?
52617I pray you Sir tell me, replyed_ Ferando_, after men are dead, and put into Purgatory, is there any hope of their ever visiting the World any more?
52617I pray you tell mee Sir, what meate was this which you have made me to eate?
52617If I had had the very least thought, to doe any such act as you speake, doe you thinke that God would have suffered me to live?
52617If he be a Woman hater, why did he make choyce of me to be his Wife?
52617If it be so, as manifestlie it maketh shew of it selfe; What do we here?
52617If then he continued so just and loyall to you, as( of mine owne knowledge) I am able to say he did; what should move you to repulse him so rudely?
52617In this high tide of sorrow and disaster, what shall we say of the gentle Lord_ Ocharus_?
52617Introth thou didst well_ Lurco_, to come away from so tedious a dwelling; had he not need to be more then a man that is to live with such women?
52617Is dignity preferred before wedlockes holy duty, and pleasures abroade, more then comforts at home?
52617Is her young bloud to be compared with ours?
52617Is it even so Wife?
52617Is it possible, saide the Mother, that our Daughter should catch a live Nightingale in the darke?
52617Is master Doctor returned home, or hath some other inconvenience hapned, whereby finding me asleepe, she was enforced to hide me thus?
52617Is there no more such water to be had in the world?
52617It fortuned, that the boy being now about eighteene yeeres olde, and his Father growne very aged; he demanded of him one day, whether hee went?
52617Knowest thou what and who they are, whom thou hast so dishonourably condemned to the fire?
52617Madam, are Hennes onely bred in this Countrey, and no Cockes?
52617May this be possible?
52617Moreover, what know I, if it be the will of Heaven to have it so?
52617Must your will and mine be governed by our Daughter?
52617No doubt then Sir( quoth the other) but you have saide that prayer this morning?
52617Now thou confessest thy Gelding to bee mine?
52617Now, albeit shee knew him well enough, yet she demanded of the good old Widdow, what Gentleman he was?
52617O Sonne( quoth the Frier) how happie and blessed of God art thou?
52617O good Sir, saide the man, doe you remember the words in the Gospell this morning?
52617Of him she demanded what Countrey- man he was?
52617Oh Father( answered Maister_ Chappelet_) you that seeme to be a man of God, how dare you use any such vile words?
52617Oh Sister( answered the other) how many things are promised to him every day, and not one of a thousand kept or performed?
52617Oh good Son, saide the Friar, doth that seeme so great a sinne to thee?
52617Or, if you had not the heart to speake it, how could you be so cruell against her, knowing your offence as great as hers?
52617Pedro_ hearing the voyce, presently listed up his head, and_ Phineo_ speaking_ Armenian_, saide: Of whence art thou, and what is thy Fathers name?
52617Poor Lady, how strangely was her soule afflicted, hearing these harsh and unpleasing speeches?
52617Presently the Inquisitor, most devoutly addicted to Saint_ John_ with the golden beard, saide; What?
52617Repute we our selves lesse precious then all the other?
52617Say you so Father?
52617See sir, these are none of your amorous tokens?
52617Shall I send, or goe my selfe in person, to request the Faulcon of him, it being the best that ever flew?
52617Shall I terme her a woman, or rather some savage monster in a womans shape?
52617Shall my destruction bee wrought by thy currish unkindnesse, and all my hoped joyes be defeated in a moment?
52617Sir( quoth she) what a coyle is heere about a paltry glasse of Water, which perhaps hath bene spilt, yet neyther of us faulty therein?
52617Sir, let it be no offence to you, that I desire to know, what prayer you most use when thus you travell on the way?
52617Sir, speake you to me?
52617Sir, wherein have those poore young couple offended you, that are so shamefully to be burnt at_ Palermo_?
52617Sorrowing exceedingly, and manifestly beholding his misfortune; Alas( quoth he) how soone have I lost a Sister, and five hundred Crownes besides?
52617Tell mee, treacherous man, am not I as faire, as the wife of_ Ricciardo_?
52617That is very true, replied the Inquisitor, but what moveth thee to urge those words?
52617The Abbesse verily credited his answer, demanding what he meant, in saying, that he did service to nine?
52617The Count returned his Highnesse most humble thankes, desiring to know of whence, and what shee was?
52617The Guard, pursuing on still his purpose, demanded of him, what, and who his Father was?
52617The Inquisitor presently demanded of him, whether he had heard Masse that morning, or no?
52617The King demanding how?
52617The man comming before him, he demanded, if the accusation intimated against him, was true or no?
52617Then I desired to know, why he was so rigorous to me in his correction?
52617Then shee desired to knowe, how farre off shee was from such houses, where she might have any reasonable lodging?
52617Then tell me Madam, doe you not know me?
52617Then turning to his wife, he saide; And you deare Love, if I shew you such a Sonne in Law, what will you thinke of it?
52617Those were no ill words, quoth the Friar; but I remember, you said that you were a Merchant: Did you ever deceive any, as some Merchants use to doe?
52617Thou art very melancholly, I pray thee tell us why?
52617Thoughts, have you lost your quiet silent sleeping?
52617Upon what occasion?
52617Villaine( quoth shee) shall the longing comforts of my life, be abridged by thy base and scornefull deniall?
52617Villaine, monster, why doest thou not answere mee?
52617Was he not a noble young Gentleman?
52617Was hee( among all those parts that most adorne a man, and appertaine to the very choycest respect) inferiour to any one of best merit in your Citie?
52617Well hast thou done therein good Sonne, said the Confessour: but how often times hast thou beene angry?
52617What affaires hast thou in_ Sicily_?
52617What answere canst thou make, devill, and no man?
52617What are you affraid of?
52617What brutishnesse were it in us, if wee should urge any such beleefe?
52617What can be said then in these or the like cases?
52617What canst thou more respect in her, then is in mee?
52617What care I whether our olde Maide be present, or no?
52617What doe I meane?
52617What doth this businesse of great Kings concerne thee?
52617What hath moved you Madame, to flye from company, to dwel among desert Rockes, and serve as a slave, to such as are no way worthy of your service?
52617What have I done to incense you so strangely?
52617What is become( quoth hee) of our young Gentlewoman, which came so late to us yesternight?
52617What is that?
52617What is this?
52617What is your meaning Sister, by so many questionings after_ Lorenzo_?
52617What judgement can sound the depth of his wofull extreamity?
52617What know I, whether this virgin is sent to me by the direction of heaven, or no?
52617What maketh thee to walke thus about the House, and why doest thou not get thee to bed?
52617What matter is it to you or me, to let her lodge in the Garden Gallery?
52617What misfortune( quoth the Admirall) hath thus unkindly crost thee?
52617What new kinde of needy tricke hath my braine begotte this day?
52617What object then,( mongst infinites of men) Can I ever finde to dispossesse my minde, And plant therein another new desire?
52617What shall I say more?
52617What shall we doe( quoth the one to the other) with this man?
52617What shall we say then,( vertuous Ladies) concerning this_ Chynon_?
52617What shold I thinke heereof?
52617What should I further say?
52617What should I say more?
52617What stay we for?
52617What though he appeareth a wretched fellow to mee?
52617What urgent affaires have you with him, that makes you so impatient upon his absence?
52617What will not a man( in desperate extremity) both well like and allow of, especially, when it carrieth apparance of present comfort?
52617What will you say Madam, if I cause you to see your eldest Son, not long since married to one of my Daughters?
52617What words are these, quoth the Inquisitor?
52617What would you do Madam, if I were an importunate solicitor, and requested farre greater matters of you, in just recompence of my labours?
52617What, have my words smitten thee dumbe?
52617What?
52617When he perceyved that all was eaten, he said unto her: Tel me Madam, how you do like this delicate kinde of meat?
52617When the Women( being then awake) heard his trampling, as also his justling against the doores and Windowes; they demaunded, Who was there?
52617Where am I?
52617Wherefore is my youth?
52617Which the yong Damosell perceiving, and drawing him into her lappe, weeping saide: Alas sweete Friend, What paine dost thou feele?
52617Who shall tell any Tale heereafter, to carry any hope or expectation of liking, having heard the rare and wittie discourse of Madame_ Lauretta_?
52617Why Daughter, saide the Mother, what wouldest thou have me to doe?
52617Why Husband( quoth shee) do I make any large provision, when I am debard of your company?
52617Why Virgin( answered_ Andrea_) know you not me?
52617Why are we more respectlesse of our health, then all the rest of the Citizens?
52617Why art thou so strange?
52617Why did you not say as much of your selfe?
52617Why do I grow disdainfull against any man whatsoever?
52617Why do you haunt these retreats and desolate abodes, having power to command over infinite men, that can not live but by your presence?
52617Why doest thou not welcome home_ Thebaldo_, so kindely as all here elsee have done?
52617Why how now woman?
52617Why how now you white- liver''d Rascals?
52617Why should I disdaine to make proofe of her skill?
52617Why should I not take pleasure, when I may freely have it?
52617Why should blacke clowdes obscure so bright a cleare?
52617Why should not I be as respectlesse of him, as he declares himselfe to be of me?
52617Why should this matter be any way offensive to me?
52617Why then, replyed the woman, I must remaine in the state of a Widdow?
52617Why?
52617Why?
52617Wilt not thou goe into the Tombe?
52617Wilt thou turne Monster, and be a murtherer of her that never wronged thee, to please another man, and on a bare command?
52617Wit, who hath robde thee of thy rare invention?
52617With whom doest thou now imagine thy selfe to be?
52617Within a while after, he set both foode and wine before him, which when_ Ferando_ sawe, he saide; How is this?
52617Would your Highnesse give me a Quacksalver to my Wife, one that deales in drugges and Physicarie?
52617Yea but Sister, replied the second Nunne againe, there is another danger lying in our way: If wee prove to be with childe, how shall we doe then?
52617_ Alessandro_ riding along with them, courteously requested to know, what those Monks were that rode before, and such a traine attending on them?
52617_ Ave Maria_ Sister( said the other Nunne) what kinde of words are these you utter?
52617_ Bergamino_, how chearest thou?
52617_ Bernardino_, hearest thou what_ Jacomino_ hath related?
52617_ Ferando_ breathing foorth a vehement sigh, desired to know what he was, being thus appointed to punish him in Purgatory?
52617_ Ferando_ roaring and crying, could say nothing elsee, but, where am I?
52617_ Puccio_ mervailing at this answer, knowing she never gave him the like before; demanded againe, what she did?
52617and whether those children were his owne, or no?
52617answered shee: If thou be of_ Constantinople_, and art but now arrived here; doest thou know who we are, either I, or my Father?
52617answered the Friar, hath he not refrained from afflicting you so abusively?
52617answered the Lad: How do you call them?
52617art thou yet living?
52617by desiring more then was reasonable, or withholding from others, such things as thou oughtst not to detaine?
52617have I not kept my promise with thee?
52617have you no eyes in your head?
52617how mighty are the misfortunes of women, and how ill requited is the loyall love, of many wives to their husbands?
52617how was his good soule afflicted, that he had nothing wherewith to honour his Lady?
52617mine owne deare Mother?
52617saide_ Ferando_, are any other persons here, beside you and I?
52617saide_ Ferando_; what?
52617that bare me in her wombe nine moneths, day and night, and afterwards fed me with her breasts a thousand times, can I be pardoned for cursing her?
52617what a strange motion have you made to me?
52617what shall we doe?
52617what?
13102''Tis not for me to say,returned the priest;"say but what thou wouldst have: shall it be a pair of dainty shoes?
13102Alasreturned the lady,"then thou hast been in straits for money?
13102Alas, my Gianni, wottest thou not what that is? 13102 And how far off,"inquired the damsel,"are the nearest houses in which one might find lodging for the night?"
13102And how many miles is''t from here?
13102And what are its size and colour?
13102And what sins,quoth he,"hast thou committed, that wouldst be shriven?"
13102Are we to start so soon? 13102 Art thou minded to build thee a wall, that we see so many stones about?"
13102Aught?
13102Begone in God''s name: dost think to know more than I, thou that art but a sucking babe? 13102 Beyond a doubt, thou art right,"quoth Buffalmacco;"and thou Calandrino, what sayst thou?
13102Could we so?
13102Darest thou touch her, then, with a scroll that I shall give thee?
13102Daughter,said the lady,"what heat was there?
13102Dost not know him? 13102 Farther off, then, than the Abruzzi?"
13102Find a way?
13102Gumedra,quoth the Master;"what is she?
13102Hadst thou no pain in the night?
13102Have I aught else to say?
13102Hearest thou not,replied the husband,"what he says he has this very night done to Niccolosa?"
13102How can this be?
13102How may that be? 13102 How so?"
13102How so?
13102How so?
13102How, then,quoth the husband,"can the priest also lie with you?"
13102How?
13102How?
13102How?
13102How?
13102I can not say,replied Calandrino;"''twas but now that Nello told me that I looked quite changed: can it be that there is aught the matter with me?"
13102I doubt''tis even so,replied Calandrino,"for he called her and she joined him in the chamber; but what signifies it?
13102I wonder what it could be,returned Nicostratus;"is it perchance that I have a decayed tooth in my jaw?"
13102Indeed no,replied Biondello:"wherefore such a question?"
13102Indeed we do,quoth the priest,"and to better purpose than others: why not?
13102Is he mad?
13102Is it possible?
13102Know I not how to make men dance without the aid of either trumpet or cornemuse?
13102Nay, but,quoth Bruno,"how can it be?
13102Nought is lost but what is irrecoverable,replied Tingoccio:"how then should I be here, if I were lost?"
13102So,replied Dioneo,"''tis with you do first and say after?"
13102Sooth say you,returned the friar,"and does not your husband lie with you?"
13102Tapped at it?
13102Then,promptly continued the lady,"if he has ever had of me as much as sufficed for his solace, what was I or am I to do with the surplus?
13102These be virtues great indeed,quoth Calandrino;"but where is this second stone to be found?"
13102To whom then,said the servant,"does he send me?"
13102Wast thou then present thyself? 13102 Well, well,"said Bruno,"but what are the size and shape of the stone?"
13102What a question is this, wife?
13102What favour?
13102What is it, Madam,returned the good woman,"that you would have him do?"
13102What shall we do, then?
13102What tak''st thou to be the matter with me?
13102What the devil?
13102What then,said the lady,"wouldst thou have me do?"
13102Wherefore?
13102Why not in your own house?
13102''"( 1)"Now a plague upon thee,"said the queen, with a laugh;"give us a proper song, wilt thou?
13102( 13) But wherefore go I about to enumerate all the lands in which I pursued my quest?
13102After whom goes Messer Lambertuccio, so wrathful and menacing?"
13102Am I to cast it to the dogs?
13102And how could I be so unfeeling as to seek to deprive a gentleman of the one solace that is now left him?
13102And marking that Angiulieri was accoutred for the road:--"How is this, Angiulieri?"
13102And of whom will he have a care, whom will he succour, if not thee?
13102And that too when I am thereby to win her favour?
13102And the maid said to Crivello:--"Nay, but why goest thou not after thy master?
13102And then, as they received no answer, they continued:--"And how''s this?
13102And what the devil are we women fit for when we are old except to pore over the cinders on the hearth?
13102And whom have we to govern and succour us save men?
13102And you, Madam, have you no shame, that you suffer him to do so in my presence?
13102Are we to say that, because it burns houses and villages and cities, it is a bad thing?
13102Are we, for the mischief it does to the fever- stricken, to say that''tis a bad thing?
13102Arriguccio began:--"How sayst thou, lewd woman?
13102As Zeppa came upstairs:--"Wife,"quoth he,"is it breakfast time?"
13102As also that''tis of them that magnificence is most especially demanded?
13102At the word Pietro raised his head: whereupon Fineo, speaking in Armenian, asked him:--"Whence and whose son art thou?"
13102Belcolore, who was up in the loft, made answer:--"Welcome, Sir; but what dost thou, gadding about in the heat?"
13102Besides, who is there that knows not the quality of your honour?
13102But how shall we prevent Buffalmacco knowing it?
13102But no more of this: when and where may we come together?"
13102But tell me, so good luck befall thee, are none of these stones, that have these rare virtues, to be found in these regions?"
13102But thou, most fell of all wild beasts, how hast thou borne thus to torture me?
13102But what said I when thou toldst me that Buffalmacco delighted to converse with sages?
13102But wherefore put such a question?"
13102But why enlarge upon our Fra Rinaldo, of whom we speak?
13102But why seek to enumerate them all?
13102But, if you wish me so well, why do me not a service?
13102By and by the priest began:--"So, Belcolore, wilt thou keep me ever a dying thus?"
13102By what I see thou hast a mind to make this a holiday, that thou returnest tools in hand; if so, what are we to live on?
13102Calandrino, what means this?"
13102Confess now; have I not kept my word?"
13102Crivello said to the maid:--"How is it thou takest not thyself off to bed, but goest still hither and thither about the house?"
13102Currado then turned to Chichibio, saying:--"How now, rogue?
13102Did I not come back, after chasing thy lover?
13102Did I not give thee bruises not a few, and cut thy hair for thee?"
13102Did I not tell thee to say never a word, no matter what thou mightst see?
13102Did we not forewarn you?"
13102Did we not go to bed together?
13102Do I indeed hold thee in mine embrace?"
13102Dost not know thyself, knave?
13102Dost not know thyself, wretch?
13102Dost take me for a stripling, to be befooled by thee?"
13102Dost think to make me believe that it has taken to itself wings and flown away?"
13102Gossip Pietro, what hast thou done?
13102Hast thou not enough to do at home, that thou must needs go falling in love with strange women?
13102Have you so soon forgotten that''twas Manfred''s outrageous usage of his subjects that opened you the way into this realm?
13102Having paid the rogue, Ciacco rested not until he had found Biondello, to whom:--"Wast thou but now,"quoth he,"at the Loggia de''Cavicciuli?"
13102He knew me to be a woman: why then took he me to wife, if women were not to his mind?
13102He was one that Pietro had long been after for his foul purposes: so Pietro, recognizing him, asked him:--"What dost thou here?"
13102How comes Monna Tessa in this plight?
13102How dost thou feel?"
13102How many times ere now has father loved daughter, brother sister, step- mother step- son?
13102How sayst thou?"
13102How shall I be delivered of this child?
13102How shouldst thou want Federigo, who has not a thing in the world?"
13102However he kept his place, and:--"How?"
13102However, what should I say to her from thee, if by chance I should get speech of her?"
13102I tell you our grinding is far better; and wouldst thou know why?
13102I told thee that I loved a priest; and wast not thou, whom I love, though ill enough dost thou deserve it, turned priest?
13102I told thee that the priest lay nightly with me: and what night was there that thou didst not lie with me?
13102If thou hast a mind to sup, why take not thy supper?
13102Is it not much better to bestow it on a gentleman that loves me more dearly than himself, than to suffer it to come to nought or worse?"
13102Is it, then, such a mortification to thee to be conquered by me?"
13102Is this the love you bear Spinelloccio?
13102Is this your loyalty to him as your friend and comrade?"
13102Is''t for this you have brought me here?
13102Is''t good?"
13102Know we not, then, that Fortune varies according to circumstances her methods and her means of disposing events to their predetermined ends?
13102Knowest thou who they are whom thou wouldst have burned?"
13102Madam, who set you there?
13102Martuccio regarded her for a while in silent wonder; then, heaving a sigh, he said:--"Thou livest then, my Gostanza?
13102Master,"said Bruno,"what is this you ask of me?
13102Much as he loved her, Pietro answered:--"Nay but, my lady, wherefore wouldst thou have me tarry here?
13102Must breakfast wait thee until all other folk have had it?"
13102Nello then drew back a little, and looked him steadily in the face, until:--"What seest thou to stare at?"
13102Nicostratus,"quoth she,"how couldst thou have endured it so long?
13102Now tell me: whether is more truly father to your son, I that held him at the font, or your husband that begot him?"
13102Now what is thy punishment for that?"
13102Now what shall be our verdict in this case, lovesome ladies?
13102Now what shall be your verdict, gracious ladies?
13102Now why should not we save these three soldi?"
13102Now, have you heard how your worthy brother- in- law treats your sister?
13102Now, wherefore tarry longer?
13102Or how know I but that''tis some machination of one of my ill- wishers, whom perchance she loves, and is therefore minded to abet?
13102Or perchance a gay riband?
13102Or when didst thou beat me?
13102Or wouldst thou prefer a fillet?
13102Or, if thou wast not minded to accuse thyself, how hadst thou the effrontery to censure her, knowing that thou hadst done even as she?
13102Presently:--"Should we not steal this pig from him to- night?"
13102Quoth Calandrino:--"Think''st thou, comrade, think''st thou,''twere well I brought it?"
13102Quoth Giannello:--"And who art thou?
13102Quoth then Bruno to Buffalmacco:--"How shews it, now, man?
13102Seeing her ride up alone, they said:--"Daughter, wherefore ridest thou thus alone at this hour in these parts?"
13102Shall we do as Bruno says?"
13102She has tossed about all night long by reason of the heat; and besides, can you wonder that she, girl that she is, loves to hear the nightingale sing?
13102Sir,"quoth he,"what is this you do?
13102Six florins?"
13102So after surveying the room a while:--"What means this, Calandrino?"
13102So beauteous is this damsel that there is none but should love her; and if I love her, who am young, who can justly censure me?
13102So raising her head and glancing at the cloak:--"And what may the cloak be worth?"
13102So up I got, and would have asked him who he was, and how bested, when up came Messer Lambertuccio, exclaiming:--''Where art thou, traitor?''
13102So, then, Titus, what wilt thou do?
13102So:--"Where art thou?"
13102So:--"Who might avail to answer your words of wisdom?"
13102Stumbling into the bedroom, he cried out angrily:--"Where art thou, lewd woman?
13102Suppose they were to pluck out my eyes, or my teeth, or cut off my hands, or treat me to some other horse- play of the like sort, how then?
13102That thou mightst make a conquest of him?"
13102The lady, looking hard at him, said:--"What ails thee, Anichino?
13102The lady, who had heard the noise much better than he, feigned to wake up, and:--"How?
13102Then said Pyrrhus:--"Why make more words about the matter?
13102Then the lady:--"What can this mean?"
13102Then, Messer Gentile coming up:--"Sir,"quoth one of the guests,"this treasure of yours is goodly indeed; but she seems to be dumb: is she so?"
13102Then, feigning to be aroused by the shaking, Pinuccio uttered Adriano''s name, saying:--"Is''t already day, that thou callest me?"
13102Then, rising, she greeted them with:--"Welcome, my brothers but what seek ye abroad at this hour, all three of you?"
13102Then, she standing abashed and astonied, he turned to her, saying:--"Griselda, wilt thou have me for thy husband?"
13102Then:--"Wast thou ever there?"
13102Think you I see you not?"
13102Think you that I am blind?
13102Think you to serve me as you served Biliuzza, whom you left in the lurch at last?
13102Think''st thou I can be of no more use to thee?
13102Think''st thou that what thou hast done is a matter meet for jests?"
13102Thinkest thou I will let thee pawn my gown and other bits of clothes?
13102Thinkst thou that, if I had that regard for him, which thou fearest, I would suffer him to tarry below there to get frozen?"
13102Thou didst verily believe, then, that I was, that I am, minded thus to wrong my lord?
13102Thou hast supped; what awaitest thou here?"
13102To be thus accosted by all three left no doubt in Calandrino''s mind that he was ill, and so:--"What shall I do?"
13102To whom pertains it rather than to him?
13102To whom:--"What hast thou to do with Messer Lambertuccio?"
13102Wast thou ever to- night, I say not in my company, but so much as in the house until now?
13102Weeping, the damsel made answer that she had lost her companion in the forest, and asked how far might Anagni be from there?
13102What books, what words, what letters, are more sacred, more excellent, more venerable, than those of Holy Writ?
13102What but abandon this unseemly love, if thou wouldst do as it behoves thee?
13102What canst thou do?"
13102What does Pinuccio there?
13102What is this thou doest?
13102What means this force?"
13102What more had I to expect of thee or any other, had I done all thy kith and kin to death with direst torments?
13102What more is to be said of this hapless woman?
13102What more would you do, had he given her to a villein, to a caitiff, to a slave?
13102What passage can it find?
13102What shall I do?
13102What then, gracious ladies, are we to say of Cimon?
13102What unheard- of doings are these?"
13102What would be said of you if so you should do?
13102What would you say if I were, as he is, in the street, and he were in the house, as I am?
13102What''s thy will?"
13102When didst thou ever see mare without a tail?
13102When you began saying one to the other:--''Where is Calandrino?''
13102Where would you find fetters, dungeons, crosses adequate to your vengeance?
13102Whereat Belcolore tittered, and said:--"Why, what is''t I do to you?"
13102Wherefore art thou so distressed?
13102Wherefore her brothers and mother now turned to Arriguccio with:--"What means this, Arriguccio?
13102Wherefore in such a hurry?
13102Wherefore, then, wouldst thou do them to death, when thou shouldst rather do them all cheer, and honour them with lordly gifts?"
13102Wherefore, turning to a single companion that he had with him, he said:--"What thinkest thou of this base woman, in whom I had placed my hope?"
13102Wherefore, upon his return, quoth Bruno softly:--"Didst see her?"
13102Whereto Belcolore would fain have demurred; but Bentivegna gave her a threatening glance, saying:--"So, then, thou takest a pledge from Master Priest?
13102Whereto Tofano made answer:--"And what then canst thou do?"
13102Whereto the abbess, not understanding her, replied:--"What coif, lewd woman?
13102Whereto the husband, coming up, answered:--"Here am I: what wouldst thou of me?"
13102Whereto:--"Why, dost not see?"
13102Whereupon Licisca burst out laughing, and turning to Tindaro:--"Now did I not tell thee so?"
13102Whereupon her brothers derided her, saying:--"Foolish woman, what is''t thou sayst?
13102Whereupon she took occasion to say to Nicostratus:--"Hast thou marked what these lads do when they wait upon thee?"
13102Whereupon the lady turned to him with:--"Alas, my husband, what is this that I hear?
13102Whereupon the lady, turning to her husband:--"Now what can Pyrrhus mean?"
13102Whereupon the maid withdrew from the window, and went to bed; while the lady said to her lover:--"Now, what sayst thou?
13102Whereupon:--"Ciesca,"quoth he,"what means this, that, though''tis a feast- day, yet thou art come back so soon?"
13102Whereupon:--"Good- day, Madam,"quoth he:--"are the damsels yet come?"
13102Whereupon:--"How sayst thou, sweet my hope?"
13102Whereupon:--"Nay, but, comrade,"quoth Buffalmacco,"upon thy honour, what did it fetch?
13102Whereupon:--"Was I ever there, sayst thou?"
13102Whereupon:--"Who art thou?"
13102Which Giosefo marking:--"Wast thou not told,"quoth he angrily,"after what fashion thou wast to order the supper?"
13102Which Messer Geri having observed on two successive mornings, said on the third:--"What is''t, Cisti?
13102Which Nicostratus somewhat resenting:--"Now what cause hast thou,"quoth she,"to make such a wry face?
13102Which caused Melisso and Giosefo ofttimes to say to him:--"How now, caitiff?
13102Which of them wilt thou find so well furnished with arms and horses, clothes and money as thou shalt be, if thou but give my lady thy love?
13102Which said, she fell a weeping and repeating:--"Alas, alas, woe''s me, in what evil hour was I born?
13102Which the poor simpleton almost swooned to hear; and:--"How so?"
13102Which tidings the host being none too well pleased to learn, said first of all to himself:--What the Devil does this fellow here?
13102Whither art thou suffering beguiling love, delusive hope, to hurry thee?
13102Whither go I?
13102Who but I would have known how so soon to win the love of a lady like that?
13102Who but this worthy man would thus have read my mind through and through?
13102Who but thou, that hast suffered jealousy to blind thee, would have been so witless as not to read such a riddle?
13102Who is within?"
13102Who is''t that thus sneezes?''
13102Who knows not that fire is most serviceable, nay, necessary, to mortals?
13102Who, then, dismissing all bias from his mind, and judging with impartial reason, would deem your counsel more commendable than that of Gisippus?
13102Whom makest thou the mistress of thy soul, thy love, thy hope?
13102Why keeps he not in his own bed?"
13102Why must you needs mind you of God and the saints?
13102Why not try if thou canst not manage him kindly and gently?
13102Why saidst thou not to me:--''Make it thou''?
13102Why, then, call''st thou not him to come to thy succour?
13102Why, who could have thought that any but we would have been so foolish as to believe that a stone of such rare virtue was to be found in the Mugnone?"
13102Will the cold, that, of my ordaining, he now suffers, banish from thy breast the suspicion which my light words the other day implanted there?"
13102Wilt thou not be there?"
13102Wouldst kill the beast?
13102Your maid has been seeking you all day long: but who would ever have supposed that you were there?"
13102art satisfied that the bird has thighs and legs twain?"
13102blunderer that I am, what was I about?
13102but Fra Rinaldo, do friars then do this sort of thing?"
13102comrade,"quoth Calandrino,"so thou wouldst not believe me when I told thee to- day?
13102how could I keep quiet?
13102is''t thus he treats me?
13102lewd woman, what is this thou doest?
13102my lady, what hast thou done?"
13102my soul, what shall we do, now that day has come and surprised me here?"
13102quoth Buffalmacco to Bruno,"what are we about that we go not back too?"
13102quoth Buffalmacco,"you did not?
13102quoth Calandrino;"but tell me, what becomes of the capons that they boil?"
13102quoth Monna Sismonda,"what would he be at?"
13102quoth she:"can it be that it really seems to him to be as he says?
13102quoth the husband,"saidst thou not as much to the priest that confessed thee?"
13102quoth the lady,"what means this, Zeppa?
13102rejoined Currado in a rage:"so the crane has but one thigh and one leg?
13102replied Saladin,"then might you be pleased to direct us, as we are strangers, where we may best be lodged?"
13102replied the lady haughtily:"what means this?
13102returned Belcolore,"do priests do that sort of thing?"
13102returned the lady;"dost thou take me for a saint?
13102said Calandrino:"how can we compass that?"
13102said Gianni,"and how does one exorcise it?"
13102said he to the lady,"does not your husband lie with you?"
13102say you so?"
13102shall I ever thither fare again Whence I was parted to my grievous dole?
13102thinkst thou I never saw crane before this?"
13102vociferated Calandrino,"wilt thou drive me to despair and provoke me to blaspheme God and the saints and all the company of heaven?
13102what ails thee thus of a sudden?
13102what friars are there that do not the like?
13102what sayst thou?"
13102what will thy brothers, thy kinsmen, thy neighbours, nay, what will all Florence say of thee, when''tis known that thou hast been found here naked?
13102whence shall we get bread to eat?
13102where am I?"
13102whether is the greater his wit, or the love I bear him, thinkst thou?
13102why didst thou not apply to me?
13102you are my child''s godfather: how might it be?
8771A good morning to you, madame,says Jurgen,"and whither are you going?"
8771Ah, but, godmother, would it be quite just for you to accord me so much more than is granted to other persons?
8771Ah, then you are not happy with your husband, Sylvia? 8771 Am I to be confronted with every pound of tender flesh I have embraced?
8771And are you happy here?
8771And did you ever hear of a satyr going indoors?
8771And do you never move?
8771And do you really think, Jurgen, that I am going to explain to you why I made things as they are?
8771And do you think of that tow- headed bean- pole very often, King Jurgen?
8771And does that make so great a difference?
8771And for what reason?
8771And how can that be?
8771And how does a king come thus to be traveling without any retinue or even a sword about him?
8771And how should I know whether or not I speak the truth?
8771And in what way could Koshchei juggle so with time?
8771And is the Queen as fair as people report?
8771And is the road to this garden roundabout?
8771And must you be trying, while I die, to get your grieving for me into the right words?
8771And was that Dorothy whom I loved in youth an imaginary creature?
8771And what becomes of these timid persons, Centaur?
8771And what do you do here, grandmother?
8771And what does that mean?
8771And what have you to say about her?
8771And what is this Cocaigne?
8771And what is this thing that I desire?
8771And what thing is this which I desire? 8771 And what was that thing, Sylvia?"
8771And what will you do now?
8771And what will you do with all this money, Rudolph?
8771And what, madame, can they be?
8771And what, pray, is this ceremonial?
8771And where, did you say, is this palace?
8771And why do you call me a prince, Jurgen?
8771And why do you do these things year in and year out?
8771And why is pride impossible to Koshchei?
8771And why must I assist you?
8771And why, pray?
8771And will your majesty talk politics again?
8771But certainly I heard somebody approaching through the forest--"Well, and do you not perceive I have withdrawn my staff from its hiding- place?
8771But do you not ride with them to London?
8771But do you not understand?
8771But have you any reason to blame me? 8771 But how am I to make a choice without having seen any of these countries?
8771But how are you to use it, pray?
8771But how can that be, Prince?
8771But how can you and I be kin?
8771But how could that be done?
8771But how may I come to him, grandmother?
8771But how, madame, did you happen to become a vampire if the life does not please you? 8771 But is it magic?
8771But is not Queen Helen the loveliest of ladies that you have ever seen?
8771But is not cleverness the main thing, sir?
8771But of what are you thinking so intently?
8771But stay,said Koshchei:"what is that which comes into this woman''s eyes as she speaks of her children?"
8771But what has he decided about you, Jurgen?
8771But what have I to do with the Moon?
8771But what is on that bit of parchment?
8771But wherefore is this place called the Hell of my fathers?
8771But why is love impossible to Koshchei?
8771But, darling, are you not just the least, littlest, tiniest, very weest trifle bigoted? 8771 Did I create this love?"
8771Did I not say this place was not in touch with new ideas?
8771Did you note that? 8771 Do you care about me, one way or the other, then?"
8771Do you know what I have come for?
8771Do you mean that, King Jurgen?
8771Do you really think so?
8771Do you think so?
8771Do you think this is reputable conduct, King?
8771Do you think you could persuade them to go elsewhere? 8771 Do you think,"says Jurgen, about to unlace his antagonist''s helmet,"that this is Thragnar?"
8771Eh?
8771Eh?
8771Hah, and what have we to do with that?
8771Has this woman died, then?
8771Hast thou the marmaritin, Tib?
8771Heyday, and did it not lead to the eternal glory of the first and greatest of the popes? 8771 How can any of us know anything?
8771How can any of us know anything? 8771 How can that be?"
8771How could there be any pretty women in this horrible place? 8771 How do I know that?"
8771How do you know? 8771 How is that shown, Messire de Logreus?"
8771How long, then, must I remain here?
8771How many feet had the first wearer of your shirt? 8771 How should I know you when I never saw you before?"
8771How should I know, since I am but the illusion of an old woman, as you have so frequently proved by logic? 8771 How then can you be the leaders of Philistia?"
8771How then, sir, would you have me deal with everybody?
8771I suppose you already have your eyes upon some minx or other?
8771I understand,says Jurgen:"but has no other person ever perceived this shadow of yours?"
8771In the Hell of your fathers? 8771 Is it any more preposterous than to travel with an imaginary creature like a centaur?"
8771Is not that customary when age talks with youth? 8771 It must depend entirely upon what your father thinks about it--""But what has he to do with it?"
8771May I speak with you a moment?
8771My Lord Bishop,says Jurgen, simply,"can you tell me the truth about this Christ?"
8771My dear,says her husband, as he rejoined her,"and who was the young gentleman?"
8771My friend, do you forget the poet that you might be, even yet? 8771 My own sweetheart,"says she,"and do we not know very well what is to happen?"
8771No doubt: but then why should I explain it to you, Jurgen?
8771Now answer me this, Dame Anaïtis: were you not visited by two ghosts to- night?
8771Now, but what else was I to do?
8771Now, who may you be, that come to us alive, in a fine shirt of which we never saw the like before?
8771Oh, sir, and is this a place wherein to talk about mere earthly dignities? 8771 Oh, sir, and must you still be finding fault with mother?"
8771See here, Prince, are you beginning all over again? 8771 Sir,"says Jurgen, astounded,"do you read people''s inmost thoughts?"
8771That vexed you, did it not? 8771 Then why do you complain because I piously emulate the Gods, and offer unto Love the sincerest form of flattery?"
8771They will tumble apart without anyone having to touch them, and then what becomes of your crucifix?
8771Two months it was that we played at intimacy, was it not, Félise? 8771 Was he?
8771Was it for that reason you did not praise Pandelis and her Mondays with the other Léshy?
8771Well, and was there ever a flaw in my logic?
8771Well, and was there ever such a treasury as the Library of Cocaigne? 8771 Well, and what could anybody expect me to do about it?
8771Well, friend, and whither are you going?
8771Well, now I wonder what did the priest say to your bold shadow?
8771Were you the animal, then,says Jurgen,"and was it a quite ordinary animal, that conveyed me to the garden between dawn and sunrise?"
8771What do you call me? 8771 What do you plan, Messire de Logreus?"
8771What else would you expect when the Master''s teachings are being flouted? 8771 What is art to me and my way of living?"
8771What is pride? 8771 What is that to you, Duke Jurgen, since you and I are still in the warm flesh?
8771What is the meaning of this insane country?
8771What makes you sure of that?
8771What man would ever have thought of that?
8771What sort of breakage, sir?
8771What will become of you?
8771What, Jurgen, and would you look for justice, of all places, in Heaven?
8771What, can it be that you are remorseful?
8771What, do you mean Praxagoras of Cos?
8771Where is that?
8771Which of those minxes has been making up to you?
8771Who are you, and why do you thank me?
8771Who could expect it of a clever fellow, who sees so clearly through the illusions of old women?
8771Who could have expected such a monstrous clever fellow ever to envy the illusions of old women?
8771Who is that?
8771Why are you fumbling in your pocket?
8771Why are you telling us of these irrelevant matters?
8771Why do you keep contradicting me?
8771Why is it, then, that I am not content?
8771Why should I tell you, Jurgen? 8771 Why, I wonder if everything is right, in a way?
8771Why, and will there be any love- making, do you think, in Hell?
8771Why, but do you not remember, too, that I ran away in the night when Maugis d''Aigremont stormed Storisende? 8771 Why, heyday, and was I not born upon a Wednesday?
8771Why, no: but what have I to do with justice? 8771 Why, what could anybody possibly expect me to do about it?
8771Why, what does it matter? 8771 Will you go with me, Jurgen?"
8771Yes, Jurgen?
8771Yes, but what do you think?
8771Yes, but why not stop occasionally?
8771Yes, certainly, Silenus: but how will this war end?
8771Yes, sir,said Jurgen:"but, still, what does it matter if you did?"
8771Yet am not I a monstrous clever fellow,he would console himself,"to take them all in so completely?
8771Yet how may I be sure,thought Jurgen, instantly,"that this black gentleman was really Koshchei?
8771You are wearing yourself out, my darling,Jurgen would say:"and does it not seem, after all, a game that is hardly worth the candle?
8771You do not even wish to be tortured?
8771You do not know me, then?
8771You have worn this for some time, I understand,said Koshchei, meditatively:"and did you ever notice any inconvenience in wearing this garment?"
8771You mean that you judge all affairs by feeling rather than reason? 8771 You mean, nobody ever leaves this island?"
8771You would chop off an arm? 8771 Your conscience, then, does not demand that you be punished?"
8771--and Jurgen shrugged here--"well, and what could I be expected to do about it?"
8771Ah, but how will you recognize Koshchei?
8771Ah, but why bother about them?
8771And I cry aloud, in the immortal words of Apollonius Myronides--""Of whom?"
8771And I wonder if it was Thragnar''s head I removed in the black and silver pavilion?
8771And I wonder, too, if he left it here a year ago or only this evening?
8771And am I not to use them, to requite King Smoit for the injustice he did poor Ludwig?
8771And besides, what call have you and I to be bothering over the pranks of common mariners, so long as they do their proper duty?"
8771And do my own grandfathers, and all the forefathers that I had in the old time, inhabit this gray place?"
8771And finally, when it came to serving women, what sort of service did women most cordially appreciate?
8771And how do you get on with her?"
8771And how, Jurgen, did you become an emperor?"
8771And is there anything"--Jurgen coughed delicately--"and is there anything to pay, sir?"
8771And it was as in a dream that Jurgen was speaking,_"Who are you, and why do you thank me?
8771And it was signed,"Thragnar R.""I wonder now for whom King Thragnar left this notice?"
8771And of what is your majesty thinking?"
8771And so why not be happy while we may?
8771And sometimes I have wondered--?
8771And then Jurgen wondered how he would be despatched into the Hell of his fathers?
8771And this one is, I think, the little Jewess I purchased from Hassan Bey in Sidon, but how can one be sure?
8771And what becomes of the great principle of papal infallibility when a pope admits to a mistake in elementary arithmetic?
8771And what is Jurgen, that his knowing or his not knowing should matter to anybody?"
8771And what is Jurgen, that his knowing or his not knowing should matter to anybody?"
8771And what is it that they call you?"
8771And while I think of it, I wonder now if any of you gentlemen can give me news of that Lisa who used to be my wife?"
8771And whom shall I be thanking for his kindness, now?"
8771And why need you continue seeking your wife''s society when it is so much pleasanter living in Hell?"
8771Are you content to endure this interrogatory, my spruce young fellow who wear the shirt of a king?"
8771Besides, if she were perfect in everything, how could I live any longer, who would have no more to desire?
8771Besides, what does all his flimsy sophistry avail against Nicanor''s fine chapter on this very subject?
8771Besides, why keep talking about this Stella, after a vengeance so spectacular and thorough as that to which Anaïtis had out of hand resorted?
8771But I am wondering what pleasure you get out of it all?"
8771But can one obtain a divorce here?"
8771But do you not perceive I am likewise your son Jurgen?"
8771But how can I know that you are speaking the truth?"
8771But how does it happen, Messire Merlin, that you have never used this token in the fashion you suggest to me?"
8771But of what are you thinking, Duke of Logreus?"
8771But what has become of your concrete example?"
8771But what is life without confidence in one another?
8771But what is the old lady doing in such high company?"
8771But what is this other thing which is impossible to Koshchei?"
8771But whither, pray, am I expected to go?"
8771But who are you, friend, that have such curious notions about me?"
8771But who governs this country?"
8771But who, messire, are you that go about Hell unscorched, in such a fine looking shirt?"
8771But why do you call me a member of the family?"
8771But why is it that such attendants follow some men while other men are permitted to live in decent solitude?
8771But why is it, pray, that you have never married before, in all these years?"
8771But with what are you charging me?"
8771But, after all, just what exactly is the point of it?
8771Come now, could you not let me see my first wife for just a moment?"
8771Could you face that interpretation, Jurgen?"
8771Do we not sit here, just as we were before?
8771Do you not find my reason sufficient?"
8771Do you not think so, sir?"
8771Do you not think that this or something very like this is happening to- night in my city of Cameliard, Messire de Logreus?".
8771Do you suppose that we Apostles enjoy hearing jokes made about the Church?"
8771Do you think, for example, that I am frowzing in this underground place by my own choice?
8771Florimel considered the saying cryptic: just what precisely did his majesty mean?
8771For do I not know what emperors are?
8771For is not Love a god, and a jealous god that has wings with which to leave us?"
8771For is not that thy law?"
8771For no woman has ever loved me save that Azra who was my mother--""I wonder if your mother told you that?"
8771For this is my vacation, granted yearly by the Law of Kalki--""And who is Kalki, madame?"
8771For what does Rudigernus say outright upon this point?
8771For what have you made of a year of youth?
8771Granted He was a god, were the Arians or the Sabellians in the right?
8771Have you no sense of responsibility whatever, thus to be frolicking on a working- day?"
8771He said he was?
8771How can I be happy, when all the while I know the long years of misery and vain regret are near at hand?"
8771How can I possibly know what you mean when you refuse to tell me what you mean?"
8771How can I remember everything when I consider the might of Sereda?"
8771How else was he to prove the Princess of Glathion had the loveliest hand in the world?
8771How many times must I tell you that?"
8771How much-- abominable usurer!--could you advance me upon this necklace?"
8771How otherwise could I be Koshchei?
8771How otherwise could he be Koshchei?"
8771How should I?
8771How, then, can I come to Koshchei?"
8771How, then, can Koshchei be proud?"
8771How, then, can Koshchei love anything?"
8771I put it to you fairly, King Jurgen: now how could this conceivably have come about unless the Author sometimes composes nonsense?"
8771I wonder if I want Lisa back?"
8771I wonder if that is the large secret of everything?
8771I wonder if the Author gets much pleasure from these simple characters?
8771I wonder now what would she say if I told her as much?"
8771I wonder now--?"
8771In any event, you Emperor Jurgen, by what authority do you question Satan, in Satan''s home?"
8771In what other young man of twenty- one may you look to find such continence?
8771Is anything changed between us?
8771Is it not strange that our exceeding wickedness should have resulted in nothing save the memory of dust upon a lamp chimney?
8771Is there no reason at all in you?
8771It had happened a number of hundred of times since Jurgen first sat down to eat his lunch: and what was gained by it?
8771It is Aillê, the daughter of Cormac, whom I love, and who can blame me?
8771Jurgen demanded, almost indignantly:"But have you not then, Prince, been guiding all my journeying during this last year?"
8771Lastly, and above all, how do I know there is a word of truth in your high- sounding fancies?"
8771Look you, Mother Sereda, does your shadow report in all this year one single instance of misconduct with a woman?"
8771Now tell me, Heart''s Desire, but was not that a foolish dream?
8771Now, how can it be possible that Koshchei, who made all things as they are, should be a rebel?
8771Now, my boy, I put it to you fairly, how could there have been a twenty- first unless there had been a twentieth?
8771Now, then, Silenus, since you are so wise, come tell me, is it really the best fate for a man to be drunk always?"
8771Now-- but what is your name, woman who wish to go to Heaven?"
8771O God, why could You not let me have faith?
8771Or else, why could You not let me deride, as the remainder derided so noisily?
8771Or were the Merinthians right?
8771Peter?"
8771Requirements of Bread and Butter"Nessus,"says Jurgen,"and am I so changed?
8771Said Anaïtis, blankly:"And is that all?"
8771Said Jurgen, scornfully:"But is justice, then, a word?"
8771So why do you not convey her to this Heaven which she believes in, and thus put an end to the matter?"
8771So why keep worrying about it?"
8771So, in the interest of domesticity, suppose you ransom Dame Lisa with that fine shirt of yours?"
8771Still, is there any need of pulling quite such a portentously long face?
8771That makes you my godmother, does it not?"
8771The priests said so- and- so: but did anybody believe the gallant Bishop of Merion, for example, was always to be depended upon?
8771Then Jurgen wondered why he should ever have expected Koshchei to be intelligent?
8771Then privately Koshchei asked,"Are these children and grandchildren of Steinvor such as she reports?"
8771Then would it have been more shrewd, dear ladies, to have avoided love?
8771Vexatious Estate of Queen Helen"But how can I travel with the Equinox, with a fictitious thing, with a mere convention?"
8771Was He Melchisedek, or Shem, or Adam?
8771Was He the husband of Acharamoth, that degraded Sophia, as the Valentinians aver?
8771Was he, then, also a mathematician?"
8771Was it quite fair to anyone concerned?
8771Well"--and here he shrugged,--"well, and what could anybody expect me to do about it?
8771Well, I am willing to taste any drink once: but this is a very horrible device, none the less; and I wonder if I have the pluck to endure it?"
8771Well, and why are you always drunk, Silenus?"
8771Well, but who can deny that cleverness is truly a curiosity in Cocaigne?"
8771Well, what if I took vengeance now upon this thieving comeliness, upon this robber that strips life of joy and sorrow?"
8771Were you a very wicked ruler?"
8771What are you about to show me?"
8771What can anyone say against Sævius Nicanor?--ah, what indeed?"
8771What did he say, dear?"
8771What do these poor enamored creatures matter when to you my heart is ever faithful?"
8771What do you mean now, Horvendile, by your hints that I have faltered in my constancy to Dame Melicent since I saw Queen Helen?
8771What does it mean?"
8771What else was living good for unless it brought me back to you?"
8771What happened then?"
8771What if by some misfortune he were to get back his real youth?
8771What is this thing, then, that I desire?
8771What more can an old poet say?
8771What need have you to wear yourself out, and to devote your entire time to such proselitizing, when you might be so much more agreeably employed?
8771What now is your desire?"
8771What will become of you, my dear?"
8771What, after all, is forty- and- something when one is well- preserved?
8771Where does this woman come from?"
8771Wherein art thou better than I?
8771Who will be bride to Sclaug?"
8771Why could You not let me believe, where so many believed?
8771Why do I feel life is not treating me quite justly?"
8771Why do you call me Lisa?"
8771Why do you not sometimes take holiday?"
8771Why do you talk such nonsense?"
8771Why is it they seem always without fear, those dull and calm- eyed priests?
8771Why is it, pray, that no one else can do so?"
8771Why should I?
8771Why the devil''s name, should I?
8771Why, then, am I not out of my head about her?
8771Why, whatever are you talking about?"
8771Why, you remember what Calpurnius Bassus says about all blondes?"
8771Would you be throwing stones at respectability, Prince Jurgen?
8771Would you not rather have that, dearie, than your Wednesday?
8771and Zantipher Magnus, too?
8771and be content again, in some fair- colored realm?
8771and can you really believe that I shall ever care a snap of my fingers for anybody but you?"
8771and do I not know you?"
8771and do such dignities content a Jurgen?
8771and does the thought of her approaching marriage really disturb you?"
8771and have you not just seen that which you may not ever quite forget?"
8771and how did you learn of this?"
8771and how do you know you have not already passed by Koshchei in some street or meadow?
8771and how do you know?"
8771and in that event, what sort of a something was the Logos?
8771and knew your name by accident?"
8771and that all this, too, took place a long, long while ago?
8771and was never heard of any more?
8771and were you ever an old man?"
8771and what do you mean--?"
8771are you certain it is authentic magic?"
8771but failing either?"
8771but what has that to do with it?"
8771but what was it that I wanted to forget?
8771but what will become, in all this fighting, of Jurgen?"
8771had He existed always, co- substantial with the Father and the Holy Spirit, or was He a creation of the Father, a kind of Israelitic Zagreus?
8771how if I slew you now,"says the brown man,--"I being what I am?"
8771is there no heart in this spry young body you have regained?
8771or Kalakau, as contends Basilidês?
8771or a hand?
8771or a whole finger?
8771or the son of Pantherus, as say the Jews?
8771or was He verily the Logos?
8771or was it, as the Docetês taught, only a tinted cloud in the shape of a man that went from Jordan to Golgotha?
8771said Jurgen then:"why is it that I am denied a God?
8771said he,"and did you not do this?"
8771says Jurgen,"and have not the devils enough to bear as it is?"
8771why keep reverting to a topic which was repugnant to Jurgen and visibly upset the dearest nature myth in all legend?
33945My child,she said,"we will pray without question if you will; yet if you may, tell us who is this Diadyomene?"
33945Where had you heard it? 33945 Who is she?"
33945''Agreed,''he said first; and then,''You think that likely?''
33945''And because of this knowledge you refused him?''
33945''And do you use your powers of speech only to say what is true?''
33945''And have you feared to keep what you got of the sea?
33945''And secrecy?''
33945''And that?''
33945''And what of them?
33945''And who are They?
33945''And who did it?''
33945''And why?
33945''And you took it-- thanked her and took it?''
33945''And you will not refuse a strict promise to obey orders-- mine?''
33945''And you?''
33945''Are you satisfied yet of their colour?''
33945''Ay-- so far?''
33945''But how?''
33945''But not give up your soul-- for me?''
33945''By no means for your own?''
33945''Can you bear to be so silent, so silent, nor deliver a little word?
33945''Can you fathom my hate by its doings?
33945''Can you mean this, Diadyomene?''
33945''Can you think mine the only boat that goes without that garnish?''
33945''Christian, has she never a twig of rowan at her bows?''
33945''Christian, where is Philip?''
33945''Christian, why do you say No?''
33945''Christian, you are not of the doubters?''
33945''Christian,''said Lois,''where will you go?''
33945''Christian,''she said,''were you in peril last night?''
33945''Dare you stay?''
33945''Diadyomene, have you never defied your fear, and kept from sleep, and kept from the sea?''
33945''Diadyomene, if I die of the sea, would you be so far pitiful as to render to her my body again?''
33945''Diadyomene, what is your dream?''
33945''Do I so?
33945''Do you hold_ me_ to blame?''
33945''Do you know yet?''
33945''Do you leave the Book outside, child?
33945''Do you mind you of the day of Rhoda''s coming?
33945''Do you owe me nothing?
33945''Do you think that I have lied to you?''
33945''Do you think_ I_ have?''
33945''Eh?''
33945''Fool, dear ignorant fool, Diadyomenos, are you blind?
33945''Girl, are you out of your senses too?
33945''Had you no excuse?''
33945''Have you asked her?''
33945''His evidence?''
33945''How came you here?
33945''How can I let him go?
33945''How else?''
33945''How near is its coming?''
33945''How pledged?
33945''How shall I take the forfeit?
33945''How, then, are you not satisfied?''
33945''How?
33945''I?''
33945''If a name were to seek for me?''
33945''Is Philip alive?''
33945''Is all well-- so far?''
33945''Is danger yonder?''
33945''Is he dead?''
33945''Is he dead?''
33945''Is he so mad?''
33945''Is he worse than dead?''
33945''Is it possible?
33945''Is, then, the favour of Heaven also to be engaged to preserve from storm as from chase?''
33945''It was not I. I?
33945''Mother, do you bid me go?''
33945''Mother,''he said, awed,''what did you know?
33945''My boy,''said Lois,''what will you do?''
33945''Never thought at all; why should I?
33945''No promise, but what''s your asking?''
33945''Not for present trade, I reckon?''
33945''Now, Christian, what came next?''
33945''O Rhoda, will you not pray for us?''
33945''O child, have you nothing to show to clear him?''
33945''Of his Reverence?''
33945''Rhoda, my child,''said Lois,''where is the Book?
33945''Rhoda, will you help me?''
33945''Rhoda,''he said,''do you know what day this is?''
33945''She offered it-- to you?''
33945''That is your handiwork?''
33945''The League has charged you to be judges?''
33945''The worst?
33945''Then I am to know that though I should question, you would refuse an answer to me?''
33945''Then are you of the League?''
33945''Then do you never study the Book alone?''
33945''Then where is he?''
33945''Then, when you declared you had not summoned me, was that untrue?''
33945''To execute it?''
33945''To give sentence?''
33945''Was it Christian-- man alive!--that came to you?''
33945''Was this,''put in Rhoda,''off the Isle Sinister?''
33945''Well, Dad-- all these years?''
33945''What are they?
33945''What do you know?''
33945''What does he see?''
33945''What does it mean?''
33945''What else?''
33945''What evidence then routed it?''
33945''What goes wrong?''
33945''What had he done to anger you?
33945''What had you done?
33945''What have I done?
33945''What have you done with my boy?''
33945''What have you done?''
33945''What is it?
33945''What is it?''
33945''What is it?''
33945''What is it?--what is it?''
33945''What name shall I call you by?''
33945''What say you is the creature?
33945''What sort-- of killing?''
33945''What the devil have you been up to?''
33945''What then?''
33945''What thoughts, then, lay behind while you looked down so?''
33945''What was it?
33945''What was there?''
33945''What worth are the prayers of such an one as I?
33945''What worth has any word of mine?''
33945''What would you have of me?
33945''What''s amiss, boy?
33945''What''s this?
33945''When I am gone to lie yonder east and west, and when some day the wife shall come too to bed with me, how will you take care of my little maid?
33945''When did he go-- tell me?
33945''When the boundary is walked, Rhoda, will you pair with me?''
33945''When, and with whom?''
33945''Where are your senses, lad?
33945''Where shall he go?''
33945''Where, then, did you leave him?''
33945''Who brought this?''
33945''Who cares?''
33945''Who did this?''
33945''Who has told you so?
33945''Who''s to blame then-- you or she?''
33945''Whose comforter?
33945''Why do you hate me so?
33945''Why else have you now half murdered your fellow?
33945''Why has"Diadyomene, Diadyomene"summoned me?''
33945''Why have you brought it with you out of season?
33945''Why is it,''she said,''that the mother of that tall Philip doubles her thumb when you pass by?''
33945''Why not that?''
33945''Why not?
33945''Why not?''
33945''Why should you do this?''
33945''Why should you trouble so?''
33945''Why?''
33945''Will you pray for us?''
33945''Yet how so,''said his heart,''for I too shall come to die?''
33945''You accuse me?
33945''You bid me go?''
33945''You bid me go?''
33945''You did not of yourself return here?
33945''You had quarrelled?''
33945''You have it?''
33945''You know what he is about-- where he has gone, child?''
33945''You know?
33945''You saw him last alive and like to live?''
33945''You speak positively: can you bear witness in his favour?''
33945''You surrender?''
33945''You think better of resistance, nevertheless?''
33945''You thought me dead?''
33945''You will not be my wife?''
33945''You will take care of my little maid as I want?''
33945''Your name?
33945A limited term; for one half- hour?
33945A ransom?
33945Ah me!--can he forgive me?''
33945Also, did he not refuse an oath?
33945Am I not perfect now?
33945Am I to be pitied-- and pitied of you, who but for my pity would by now be a shredded and decayed patch sunk deep?''
33945And a further unanswerable question, What can I do?
33945And after death?
33945And do you think''tis I who take it?
33945And has no one told you what I have done single- handed?
33945And have you flung it away, as I counselled when last you beheld me?''
33945And presently asked, what did he look for over the side?
33945And what unimaginable death had been at him?
33945And what word for his mother?
33945And why should you look at me so?
33945And you would have me repent and be converted to that?
33945Are devils so vile and shameless?
33945But so?
33945But was any plank under him?
33945CHAPTER III Importunate above measure grew the question, barely displaced in the full flood of discovery: Was the unseen habitant familiar here?
33945Can grey eyes serve as well to show hate as love?
33945Can you so dream it, when, to keep all evil from you, I would, God willing, enter hell?''
33945Can you stand?
33945Can you state any circumstance to justify this urgency for a day''s grace?
33945Can you step on with me a pace?
33945Can you think I have not heard?''
33945Can you wrong so my grace to you in the past as to plan an extortion?
33945Can you?
33945Child, where is my Christian?
33945Christian said slowly,''You thought I had no soul?''
33945Christian, what have you done?''
33945Christian, what say you?''
33945Christian?''
33945Could any look on the sad, serene face and still pronounce him worthy of death, worthy the burial of a dog?
33945Could his doom be so heavy as to sink that great bulk with its scores of souls?
33945Could she be one of God''s creatures?
33945Could she deem that he offered no insane resentment against her severity?
33945Could she trust that he meditated no trespass?
33945Could you read into that no favour from me, Diadyomene, who have the sea to range?
33945Dark, he knew, to match her hair: rare eyes, like pansies dewy in shade?
33945Diadyomene, what is the desire of your heart?''
33945Did I not promise as much at the first?''
33945Did they demand acknowledgment of her defeat and his supremacy?
33945Do the damned fare worse?
33945Do you dare think I have betrayed them?''
33945Do you know?''
33945Do you not know that you are wholly in my power?''
33945Do you think I fear?
33945Do you think I have been watching and praying for your return these hours, only to gird at Christian?
33945Does she see?
33945Drown?
33945Eh?''
33945For far from you was any desire ever to set eyes on me again?''
33945For others?
33945For what cause?''
33945Foul play?
33945From my mother?''
33945From what disquiet should you eye him so?''
33945Gone deliberately, to be finally quit of so abhorred a creature?
33945Good christian men, what could they think?
33945Had he scared a woman unclothed, who now in the shame and fear of sex crouched perdue?
33945Had he struck first?''
33945Had she mastered the great peril of the sail?
33945Has sorrow only been heavy at his heart?
33945Has that devil Christian taught you?''
33945Have I failed you?
33945Have I wearied of you soon?
33945Have you a mind to face stones?''
33945Have you?''
33945He asked slowly:''Was it a vision of Diadyomene that rose up to the waves through the shadow of a fisher''s boat?''
33945He paused before out- sorting to resolve an importunate doubt: was this more than mere luck to his nets?
33945He was bound upright in the midst-- where?
33945Hey?
33945How came it?''
33945How can I?
33945How long would her vengeance delay?
33945How long, how long, she complained, shall I bear with this thirst?
33945How long?
33945How long?
33945How, then, when presently a patrol sails round yonder head?''
33945How?''
33945I desire you?''
33945I have trusted you; do you trust me?''
33945I know the young cur I owe for this scar, and have I laid a finger on him?
33945I said: with what face dare such asking approach?
33945I-- I repent, who have gained this?''
33945I?
33945Indefinite reproach clamoured all day at his conscience, What have I done?
33945Is all our security to be the grant by Heaven of a miracle?''
33945Is it believable?
33945Is it cheap, think you?
33945Is it for this?
33945Is it not enough?
33945Later she came to faltering for a moment till Lois urged:''And he asked you to be his wife?''
33945Must I say?''
33945Night- time?
33945No terms?
33945No: what then?''
33945Now when these two, little later, asked of each other,''What was the strange name he gave?''
33945O Christian, do n''t you know why they come?''
33945O Rhoda, what can I do?''
33945Of what?
33945On the very morrow he went-- do you remember?
33945Or do you expect a broken head of him?''
33945Out of new bravado, Philip passed on to Christian a muttered question: Could he now carry them in and land them on the very Isle?
33945Poor heart, how could she?
33945Presently Rhoda said:''How did you name her?''
33945Quick for once:''Have you a desire never to see me again?''
33945Quite kindly she asked,''What now have you incurred that worse should be to dread?''
33945Rhoda pressed forward, then stopped again--''What did you tell her?
33945Said the Adventurer grimly:''Now my offer holds good for silver or gold; be you man enough to back your words, you who would give me the lie?''
33945Say now, what will you do with it?''
33945She rallied on an inspiration that greatest crimes blanch, never redden, and''You have not killed him?''
33945She would quit me of this anguish-- who could will to bear this gnawing fire?
33945Should his christened body grovel to her, a witch?
33945Since-- my uncle died-- or-- before?''
33945The girl, with arms round her neck and a hid face, whispered again:''God has been good to heal-- I think so-- do you not know it yet?''
33945Theirs?
33945Then he looked at her, stood up, and repeated resolutely:''Rhoda, dearest, will you be my wife?''
33945There was long silence, and both prayed, till Rhoda faltered to the betrayal of her unregenerate heart:''Was she so very fair indeed?
33945Though you seem to be going upon certain death, you will trust and follow?''
33945To her a word from Christian were enough; but what solemnest oath, what evidence short of Philip''s self, would convince these?
33945To whom?''
33945To win a human soul?
33945Unaffronted?
33945Was ever maiden heart so candid of its passion for a man, and he alive?
33945Was her going with anger and scorn divided by pity?
33945Was she guilty of this?
33945Well, what think you had I at heart then?
33945What alien element underlay the spell she would deliver?
33945What are you about?
33945What colour were her eyes?
33945What could the loon mean with his signing?
33945What evil communication corrupts you?''
33945What garland was this on his throat: blossoms of blood under the skin?
33945What had he done, his anguish cried up to heaven, that his God should withhold an honest due?
33945What had she done?
33945What have I done-- what can I do?
33945What have I said of hatred and love?
33945What have you done?''
33945What is it?
33945What meant this savage, cruel hate looking out of every face?
33945What more can a man offer than his life for lending or ending?''
33945What of Philip?''
33945What then?''
33945What was in them and his face to make her afraid?
33945What was there?''
33945What wonder?
33945What''s that to work week in, week out?''
33945What, never a word?''
33945What-- why?
33945What?
33945When afterwards his mother said,''You know whose child she is?''
33945Whence had those feet come?
33945Where have you been?
33945Where is he?''
33945Where is she laid?
33945Who can be in peril off the Isle Sinister?''
33945Who dare claim loyal service from him?
33945Who is the Father?''
33945Who is the Son?''
33945Who is the other one?''
33945Who knows?"
33945Who struck?
33945Who then, among mothers, could rejoice as I, and so glory in her son?
33945Whose prayers should prevail, theirs or his?
33945Whose?''
33945Why never yet will you call me by my name?''
33945Why not for him?
33945Why should he be gasping still, as breathless as after his hardest race, as after his mightiest heft?
33945Will you be my wife?''
33945Will you do as much for us?''
33945Will you keep ever at hand to listen and be careful of her?''
33945Will you say now where you went?''
33945Will you take your oath that he was alive and safe, and unhurt by you?''
33945With a saucy sparkle she said,''Do not flounces become a girl''s wear, then?
33945With indignant emphasis he repeated,''Do you think I have lied?''
33945With what but my life may I purchase?
33945Withdrawn from the fatal sea, what gain had she?
33945Would hell be undesirable if you were there, or heaven perfect if you were not?
33945Would she come, as before, with sweet despatch if he could call''Diadyomene''?
33945Would she of the cold sea nature care greatly for his death?
33945Would she remember where the outcast body lay, and fulfil her word uttered in scorn to lay sea- blossoms about the skull?
33945Would you hint that Christian-- my boy Christian-- has done murder?
33945Yet what did it profit him that she had not yet passed?
33945Yet what would you choose?''
33945You had harmed him?''
33945You have come to me often; have I ever looked unglad?
33945You never had a guess?
33945You think you have faced that once already?
33945You will not be afraid?''
33945You will?
33945You with a soul-- can you dream?
33945and by what right?''
33945and then the woful complaint was changed to wilder:''What have I done?
33945and why should you speak it low?
33945and why?''
33945are any drowned?''
33945are you able?''
33945are you mad?
33945can he?
33945dishonest too?
33945does she care?
33945for protection against evil spirits?''
33945had she fastened the rudder for drifting, and baled?
33945had you never before been gone over a four- and- twenty hours?
33945he cried;''what is it you think?''
33945her and her good name?''
33945how could I?
33945how did you know?''
33945in daylight, in fair weather?
33945is there no forgiveness of sins?''
33945or that I was curious----''''About that doubled thumb?
33945or with stately diffidence?
33945present here by some secret, easier ingress?
33945she cried, raging,''you defy me?
33945she said,''dare I bid you?''
33945she said;''what have you done?''
33945she whispered in Christian''s words,''is there no forgiveness of sins?''
33945she whose knowledge and strength were so scanty?
33945that he would allow none?
33945these yells, curses, and accusations dinning at his ears?
33945they said,"was his name Christian?"
33945what do you dare to say-- to think?
33945what haunted their vague, sad, gracious mystery?
33945what have I done?
33945what have I done?''
33945what lurking revelation to be dreaded, to be desired, hid beneath?
33945what part has he with the fleet?
33945whither had they gone?
33945who will have mercy?
33945why did she not tell you all when she would not let me confess?
33945why, what''s this grave face you are bringing us, my pretty?''
33945why?
33945would go the word,''why does the House Monitory ring?
33945your chosen mate?''
33945yours?
52618( quoth she,) your Barber?
52618( quoth the Priest) What manner of demand do you make?
52618A place Madame?
52618Ah thou wicked woman, where art thou?
52618Alas Sir( quoth she) where have you been?
52618Alas Sir, said_ Blondello_, wherefore do you strike me?
52618Alas Sir, why should you slander your selfe?
52618Alas deare friend, what shall wee doe?
52618Alas deare heart( quoth she) would you be in such want of money, and hide it from her that loves you so loyally?
52618Alas deare_ Spinelloccio_( quoth she) what shall we do?
52618Alas my deare Love, what sodain accident hath befalne you, to urge this lamentable alteration?
52618Alas my good Lord, How could you abide this, and for so long a while?
52618Alas my sonnes, did I not tell you at home in our owne house, that his words were no way likely to prove true?
52618Alas, Where are you?
52618Am I to be directed by him or thee?
52618Am I to suffer this behaviour?
52618An olde knave with( almost) never a good tooth in thy head, and yet art thou neighing after young wenches?
52618And are not these the locks of haire, which I my selfe did cut from thy head?
52618And art not thou he whom I love, being a Fryar, and my ghostly Father, though( to thine owne shame) thou madst thy selfe so?
52618And could no worse garments serve your turne, but your Doctors gown of Scarlet?
52618And couldst thou steale home, never bidding us so much as farewell?
52618And enjoying it now, according to mine owne desire, dost thou stand like a Statue, or man_ alla morte_?
52618And how admirable thine attempts?
52618And if our affaires had such an equall course before, as otherwise they could not subsist; must they not now be kept in the same manner?
52618And therefore falling from their former kinde of discoursing: Tell mee Christian( quoth_ Saladine_) what Country- man art thou of the West?
52618And thou villain_ Pyrrhus_, Darst thou abuse thy Lord, who hath reposed so much trust in thee?
52618And whither am I going?
52618Are these the behaviours of a wise or honest man?
52618Are these the fruites of wandring abroad?
52618Are you angry for a few loose haires of your beard?
52618Are you becom** a night- walker after other Women?
52618Are you so fond as to thinke that I do not see your folly?
52618Are you so malapert, to bee chatting already?
52618Art thou the same man, or no?
52618Art thou wearie of thy life?
52618As how I pray thee?
52618As they were walking in the Garden,_ Thorello_ desired to understand, of whence, and what they were?
52618Beast as thou art( quoth she to her Husband) why hast thou overthrowne both thine own good Fortune and mine?
52618Being come up into his bed- chamber, Thus he began; Where is this lewde and wicked woman?
52618But alas wife, what is become of the poore affrighted Gentleman?
52618But can you( Sir) say any thing of her?
52618But having now wone a little leisure, to rest your selfe a while from such serious affaires; can you give way to the idle suggestions of Love?
52618But how shall wee doe, that_ Buffalmaco_ may not know heereof?
52618But she boldly scorning all delayes, or any further protraction of time; demanded again, what was her accusation?
52618But to what end is this motion of yours?
52618But what doe I care if it be so?
52618But what wouldst thou have me say to her on thy behalfe, if I compasse the meanes to speake with her?
52618But why do I breake my braine, in numbering up so many to you?
52618But why do I trouble you with the repetition of so many countries?
52618But, perceiving that it was his wisest course, he questioned further with his wife, saying: Why good Woman, doth not your husband lodge with you?
52618Came I not backe againe, and beate thee as a Strumpet should be?
52618Can any thing more perticularly appertaine to me, but thy right therein is as absolute as mine?
52618Can it be possible( quoth_ Helena_) that you should be so benummed with colde?
52618Can you imagine this to be justice in a King, that such as get into their possession in this manner( whatsoever it be) ought to use it in this sort?
52618Canst thou makes vaunt of such a mounstrous villany?
52618Canst thou not yet learne to leave thy mocking and scorning?
52618Come?
52618Conjure him Wife?
52618Couldst thou imagine mee, to be such a trewant in losse of my time, that I came hither as an ignorant creature?
52618Dare you adventure another wager with him?
52618Darest thou abuse thine honest wife so basely?
52618Darest thou presume to fancie her?
52618Did I never see a Crane before this?
52618Did I not tell thee, that I loved a Fryar?
52618Did not I cut this thred from thy great toe, tyed it to mine, and found the craftie compact betweene thee and thy Minnion?
52618Did not I follow and fight with him in the streets?
52618Did not I see it in thy house yesternight?
52618Did not I tell thee this before?
52618Diddest thou ever see a Mule without a taile?
52618Didst thou not heare him wife, brag& boast, how he hath lyen this night with our daughter_ Nicholetta_?
52618Divell, and no woman, did wee not this night goe both together to bed?
52618Do you not see Husband?
52618Doe I foster such a Snake in mine owne bosome?
52618Doe you thinke to use me, as poore_ Billezza_ was, who trusted to as faire words, and found her selfe deceived?
52618Doest not thou serve a worthy Lord?
52618Doest thou thinke that I loved him, as thou wast afraid of?
52618Dooest thou thinke, that I will suffer thee to pawne my gowne, and other poore garments, as heeretofore thou hast done?
52618Dooest thou understand me what I say?
52618Dost thou see any alteration in my face, whereby to imagine, I should feele some paine?
52618Faire_ Grizelda_, if I make you my wife, will you doe your best endeavour to please me, in all things which I shall doe or say?
52618Faire_ Lisana_, how commeth this to passe?
52618Foolish fellow, what doest thou?
52618For that Sir( quoth_ Peronella_) take you no care, although no match at all had beene made, what serves my Husband for, but to make it cleane?
52618For thou art his, and he thine, why then shold any other but he help thee in this distresse?
52618For truth lives not in men: Poore soule, why live I then?
52618For truth lives not in men: Poore soule, why live I then?
52618Forbeare my Lord, Do you not see, in how weake and feeble condition my Ladie is, being shaken with so violent a sicknesse?
52618Fowle loathsome dog( quoth she) must you be at your minions, and leave mee hunger- starved at home?
52618Good morrow Madame_ Helena_, What?
52618Gossip methought I heard your Husbands voice, is hee at your Chamber doore?
52618Hast thou once more seene her?
52618Hast thou so much corage_ Calandrino_, as but to handle a peece of written parchment, which I will give thee?
52618Have not I tolde thee an hundred times, that thou art not fit to lye any where; out of thine owne lodging?
52618Have not the Gods themselves bene beguiled of their Wenches, who were better men then ever_ Phillippo_ can be, and shall I stand in feare of him?
52618Have not your eyes observed his unmannerly behaviour to your Sister?
52618Have you Sir, said_ Calandrino_, at any time beene in that Countrey?
52618Have you caused me to come hither to this intent?
52618How Husband?
52618How Husband?
52618How Sir?
52618How becamest thou so madly incensed, as( without any torment inflicted on thee) to confesse an offence by thee never committed?
52618How can it possible be, replyed_ Bruno_?
52618How can we but take it in very evill part, that thou shouldest so abuse two honest neighbours?
52618How didst thou like the fat Lampreyes and Sturgeon, which thou fedst on at the house of_ Messer Corso Donati_?
52618How farre Sir, I pray you( quoth_ Calandrino_) is that worthy Countrey, from this our City?
52618How hast thou misused her?
52618How honourable and wonderfull is that?
52618How is it possible then( replyed the Husband) that the Friar can lodge there with you too?
52618How is this Husband?
52618How justly art thou worthy of praise in the like occasions?
52618How much may this Cloake bee worth?
52618How much?
52618How now Gossip_ Pietro_?
52618How now Madame?
52618How now Master Doctor?
52618How now Sir_ Simon_?
52618How now my Lord?
52618How now?
52618How now?
52618How now?
52618How now_ Ancilla_?
52618How now_ Aniolliero_?
52618How now_ Bruno_?
52618How now_ Buffalmaco_( quoth_ Bruno_) what is thine opinion now?
52618How now_ Pyrrhus_?
52618How now_ Rinuccio_?
52618How shall I be delivered of this child?
52618How sitteth thy poore wife?
52618How straunge are thy foresights?
52618How thinkest thou now sweet heart( saide shee) can not I make a man daunce without the sound of a Taber, or of a Bagpipe?
52618How thinkest thou_ Bruno_?
52618How wonderfully art thou changed since last I saw thee, which is no longer then yester day?
52618How?
52618How?
52618How?
52618How?
52618How?
52618How?
52618How?
52618I am undone through perjury, Although I loved constantly: But truth lives not in men, Poore soule, why live I then?
52618I like thy counsell well_ Bruno_, answered_ Calandrino_; but shall I bring my Gitterne thither indeed?
52618I pray thee tell mee, How dooest thou feele thy health?
52618If it be so?
52618If such be thine intent, how shall we live?
52618In the Spring season,& c.__ Oh, How can mighty Love permit, Such a faithlesse deed, And not in justice punish it As treasons meed?
52618Indeede you say true( replyed_ Buffalmaco_) but what is the opinion of_ Calandrino_?
52618Intendest thou to kill the Mule?
52618Is he well in his wittes?
52618Is he willing to have this tryall made, or no?
52618Is it possible, said shee, that it should cost so much?
52618Is it so?
52618Is not Sir_ Simon_ our especiall friend, and can not be be pleasured without a pawne?
52618Is not this cold sufferance of this, able to quench the violent heate of his loves extremitie, and having so much snow broth to helpe it?
52618Is not this good Goblins fare?
52618Is the deed you have done, to be answered in such immodest manner?
52618Is there no comfort in this wretchednesse?
52618Is this the love you beare to_ Spinelloccio_, and your professed loyalty in friendshippe?
52618Let us doe it then( answered_ Buffalmaco_) why should we not do it?
52618Madam_ Nonna_, What thinke you of this Gallant?
52618Many times, sitting and sighing to my selfe: Lord, thinke I, of what mettall am I made?
52618May not I conjecture, that my close murthering is purposed, and this way acted, as on him that( in his life time) had offended them?
52618Meanes enow to get it againe?
52618Most unhappie_ Titus_ as thou art, whether doost thou transport thine understanding, love, and hope?
52618My Lord( quoth_ Maso_) you may bee ashamed that you doe me not Justice, why will you not heare mee, but wholly lend your eare to mine Adversary?
52618My friend, what hast thou done more, then any of us here condemned with thee, that thou tremblest and quakest, being in so hot a fire?
52618My loving Uncle, and religious holy Father, whereof are you afraid?
52618My_ Belcolore_, how long shall I pine and languish for thy love?
52618Not a long while, answerd_ Blondello_, but why dost thou demand such a question?
52618Now for my part, the most of my goods here I will pawne for thee: but what pledge can you deliver in to make up the rest?
52618Now tell me Husband, What doore in our house hath( at any time) bin shut against thee, but they are freely thine owne,& grant thee entrance?
52618O Lord Sir( quoth_ Calandrino_) these stones are of rare vertue indeede: but where else may a man finde that_ Helitropium_?
52618O Love: What, and how many are thy prevailing forces?
52618Of what bignesse Sir( quoth_ Calandrino_) is the Stone, and what coulour?
52618Or am not I sufficient to content you, but you must be longing after change?
52618Or is he franticke?
52618Or thinkest thou, that heaven hath not due vengeance in store, to requite all wicked deeds of darkenesse?
52618Or what torments are sufficient for this fact?
52618Passion of me, who then shall carrie my Corne to the Mill?
52618Quoth_ John_, By what meanes?
52618Santa Maria, answered_ Belcolore_, Dare Priests doe such things as you talke of?
52618Say thou divellish creature, do I not tell thee true?
52618See Sir( quoth she) was this Tooth to be suffered in your head, and to yeeld so foule a smell as it did?
52618See neighbour, is not this your dearest Jewell?
52618Seest thou this Flint?
52618Shall all these extremities barre me of speaking?
52618Shall we three( this night) rob him of his Brawne?
52618She hearing his voice: Alas Gossip( quoth she) what shall I do?
52618Shold not I love her, because she is affianced to_ Gisippus_?
52618Sigh, puff, and blow man?
52618Sir, you observe not the behaviour of your two pages, when they wait on you at the Table?
52618So going unto_ Chichibio_, he said: How now you lying Knave, hath a Crane two legs, or no?
52618So, descending in haste downe againe, yet crying so to them still:_ Lydia_ replyed, Alas my Lord, Why do you raile and rave in such sort?
52618Starting up and meeting them on the staire head: Kinde brethren,( said she) is it you?
52618Surely Sir, said_ Calandrino_, it is further hence, then to_ Abruzzi_?
52618Tell me_ Anichino_, art not thou angrie, to see me win?
52618Tell me_ Blondello_, how doost thou like the enrubinating Clarret of Signior_ Phillippo_?
52618The Doctor demanded, what Countesse that was?
52618The Hoste hearing these newes, which seemed very unwelcome to him, said first to himself: What make such a devill heere in my Bedde?
52618The beauty of_ Sophronia_ is worthy of generall love, and if I that am a yongman do love her, what man living can justly reprove me for it?
52618The genitories of mine Asse, answered the Priest?
52618Then the King asked, whom it concerned?
52618Then turning to the Countrey Boores: How much deare friends( quoth he) am I beholding to you for this unexpected kindnesse?
52618Thinkest thou, that I am not able to doe as much for thee?
52618This being a solemne festivall day, what is the reason of your so soone returning home?
52618Those things( quoth_ Tingoccio_) are lost, which can not be recovered againe, and if I were lost, how could I then be heere with thee?
52618Thou that( as yet) hath scarsely learned to sucke, wouldest thou presume to know so much as I doe?
52618Thou?
52618To have the smallest grace: Or but to know, that this proceeds from love, Why should I live despisde in every place?
52618To whom doeth it more belong, then to him?
52618Walking into the garden, he began to question with_ Bernardo_, demaunding him for his Daughter, and whether he had( as yet) marryed her, or no?
52618Was it not tolde you by my friend, in what manner he would have our Supper drest?
52618Well Sir replied the Porter, shall I say any thing else unto him?
52618Well do I remember thy words, that_ Buffalmaco_ delighted to be among men of Wisedome: and have I not now fitted him unto his owne desire?
52618Well done_ Cistio_, what, is it good, or no?
52618Well my friend( answered_ Bruno_) you say wee may find it, but how, and by what meanes?
52618What a beast am I?
52618What a businesse have I undertaken?
52618What a foolish woman am I, that can not well tell my selfe what I doe?
52618What a glorie is it to thee, to be affected of so faire and worthy a Lady, beyond all men else whatsoever?
52618What a mad world is this, when jealousie can metamorphose an ordinary man into a Priest?
52618What a sight is this?
52618What a wicked beast art thou?
52618What could he have done more, if he had taken thee in the open streete, and in company of some wanton Gallants?
52618What could you doe more, if hee had given her to a man of the very vilest condition?
52618What doth_ Pyrrhus_ prate?
52618What greater extreamity couldst thou inflict on me, if I had bin the destruction of all thy Kindred, and lefte no one man living of thy race?
52618What if they pul out mine eies, teare out my teeth, cut off my hands, or do me any other mischiefe: Where am I then?
52618What is the meaning of this cost, and for whom is it?
52618What is thine Opinion of my singing?
52618What is thine opinion of my amourous Scholler?
52618What may be the meaning of_ Gomedra_ be?
52618What may be the reason of these unwonted qualities?
52618What may the meaning of this matter be?
52618What meaneth this so early returning home againe this morning?
52618What meaneth_ Calandrino_ by this spetting and coughing?
52618What neede have wee of the name, when we know, and are assured of the stones vertue?
52618What prisons?
52618What reason have I to spoile thy life( thou traiterous Villaine) to rob and spoyle thy Master thus on the high way?
52618What saist thou now?
52618What say you now Ladies?
52618What shall I find that thou darst doe to me?
52618What shall I say more concerning this disastrous Lady?
52618What shall we goe away so soone?
52618What should I now further say unto you?
52618What thinke you now Ladies?
52618What thinkst thou_ Grizelda_ of our new chosen Spouse?
52618What vaile are you prating of?
52618What will be said by all men, if you doe it?
52618What wilt thou do then_ Titus_?
52618What woman is she( Gossip) that knoweth how to answer your strange speeches?
52618What would you thinke of me, if I should walk the streets thus in the night time, or be so late out of mine owne house, as this dayly Drunkard is?
52618What, and my loving mother too?
52618What, art thou preparing for building, that thou hast provided such plenty of stones?
52618What?
52618What?
52618When the mother and brethren saw this, they began to murmure against_ Arriguccio_, saying, What thinke you of this Sir?
52618When wast thou at the Hall of_ Cavicciuli_?
52618When were you this night heere in the house with mee?
52618When_ Manutio_ had ended the Song, the King demanded of him, whence this Song came, because he had never heard it before?
52618Where are you Wife?
52618Where art thou honest friend?
52618Where have you bin Sir?
52618Where is any to thy knowledge like thy selfe, that can make such advantage of his time, as thou maist do, if thou wert wise?
52618Where is this good woman?
52618Where is thy Lady and Mistris?
52618Where shall we have bread to fill our bellies?
52618Wherefore, he cryed out so lowd as he could, saying: Who is it that mourneth so aloft on the Tower?
52618Whereunto_ Nello_ answered, saying Hast thou felt any paine this last night past?
52618Whereupon he demaunded of him( as seeming to be so enjoyned by his pretended master) in what temper he found his stomacke now?
52618Whereupon, the Queene caused the Master of the Houshold to be called, demaunding of him, what noyse it was, and what might be the occasion thereof?
52618Whether shall beguiling Love allure thee, and vaine immaging hopes carrie thee?
52618Which dost thou imagine to be the greatest, either his sense and judgement, or the affection I beare to him?
52618Which way can it come from me into the world?
52618Who but my selfe could so soone have enflamed her affection, and being a woman of such worth and beauty as shee is?
52618Who hath carried you up there so high?
52618Who is it then, not transported with partiall affection, that can( in reason) more approve your act, then that which my friend_ Gisippus_ hath done?
52618Who knoweth not, I pray you, that I am as subject to sinne, as any other Woman living in the world?
52618Who then should we have for our helps and governours, if not men?
52618Who will pitty her distresse, That findes no foe like ficklenesse?
52618Why am I thus restrainde?
52618Why did you not make your need knowne to me?
52618Why do you looke so frowningly?
52618Why dost thou not call on him to come helpe thee?
52618Why how now Friar_ Reynard_?
52618Why how now deare_ Calandrino_( quoth she) jewell of my joy, comfort of my heart, how many times have I longed for thy sweet Company?
52618Why how now saucy companion?
52618Why how now wife?
52618Why how now_ Calandrino_?
52618Why how now_ Calandrino_?
52618Why how now_ Francesca_?
52618Why should I not touch her yvory breast, the Adamant that drew all desires to adore her?
52618Why should it offend me, if a Cobler, rather than a Scholler, hath ended a businesse of mine, either in private or publique, if the end be well made?
52618Why should not I have a Friend in a corner, as well as others have?
52618Why should not we go home, as well as hee?
52618Why?
52618Wicked woman, What doest thou meane?
52618Wicked, shamelesse, and most immodest Woman, Art thou come, according to thine unchaste and lascivious promise?
52618Wife( quoth he) what art thou doing?
52618Wife, may not I goe in and take the child into my armes?
52618Wilt thou tell me, that a Crane hath no more but one legge?
52618Would you have mee cast it away to the Dogges?
52618Wouldst thou have had him made me a monster?
52618Wouldst thou have me beleeve, that it is flowne away?
52618Wouldst thou( if thou couldst) shorten thine owne dayes, onely to lengthen mine?
52618Wouldst thou,( quoth_ Calandrino_) have me damne my selfe to the divell?
52618Wretched man as I am, when shall I attaine to the height of liberality, and performe such wonders, as_ Nathan_ doth?
52618Yea marry( quoth_ Buffalmaco_) how is it to be done?
52618Yes, said the Lady, why shold he not?
52618You being my Gossip, would you have me consent unto such a sinne?
52618_ Adriano_, is it day, that thou dost waken me?
52618_ Bruno_ perceiving his intent, said to_ Buffalmaco_: What remaineth now for us to doe?
52618_ Calandrino_?
52618_ Cistio_ starting up, forthwith replyed: Yes Sir, the wine is good indeed, but how can I make you to beleeve me, except you taste of it?
52618_ Credulano_, being as credulous as his name imported, seemed ready to swoune with sodaine conceit: Alas good wife( quoth he) how hapned this?
52618_ Egano_ answered thus: Wife, why should you move such a question to me?
52618_ Gasparuolo_ turning to his Wife, demanded; Whether it was so, or no?
52618_ Guido_ thou refusest to be one of our society,& seekest for that which never was: when thou hast found it, tell us, what wilt thou do with it?
52618_ John_ wondering thereat very much, jogd his wife a little, and saide to her:_ Tessa_, hearest thou nothing?
52618_ Lazaro_ stepping forth boldly like a man, replyed: Heere am I, what wold you have Sir?
52618_ Messer Corso_ demaunded of_ Guiotto_, what newes with him, and whither he went?
52618_ My_ Brunetta,_ faire and feat a, Why should you say so?
52618_ Zeppa_, What is your meaning in this?
52618am I any way afraid of thy threatnings?
52618and how?
52618and what have I to do with him, or his drunken friends?
52618answered she, is this behaviour fitting for an holy man?
52618answered_ Bruno_, What a strange motion do you make to mee?
52618answered_ Dioneus_, begin you first to act, before you speake?
52618answered_ John_, What hast thou done?
52618answered_ Maso_, doe you demaund if I have beene there?
52618answered_ Tofano_, what canst thou do to me?
52618answered_ Zeppa_, the time for dinner is yet farre enough off, wherefore then should we part so soone?
52618are the Ladies come yet or no?
52618doe you know what you say?
52618hast thou not worke enough at home, but must bee gadding in to other mens grounds?
52618hast thou put out the light, because I should not finde thee?
52618how highly am I obliged to thee for this so great a favour?
52618quoth she, what do you thinke me to be a Saint?
52618quoth shee, Doe God- fathers use to move such questions?
52618quoth_ Bruno_, doth any thing offend thee, and wilt thou not reveale it to thy friends?
52618quoth_ Geloso_, didst thou not thou confesse so much to the Ghostly Father, the other day when thou wast at shrift?
52618quoth_ Striguario_, what art thou?
52618replied the jealous Asse, what sinnes have you committed, that should neede confession?
52618said he,( speaking so loud, as hee in the Chest might heare him) What, is it time to go to dinner?
52618to a villaine, to a slave?
52618what doe I heare?
52618what fetters?
52618what have you done?
52618what may the meaning of this bee?
52618what?
52618where am I now?
52618where can be more privacie, then in your owne house?
52618why dost thou not leade her gently, which is the likelier course to prevaile by, then beating and misusing her as thou dost?
52618will you also be gentle, humble, and patient?
52618you are heartely welcome, whether are you walking, if the question may bee demaunded?
4735''Do n''t care a cuss WHAT she''ll weigh,''says Wash.''She ai n''t PLANTED there, is she?'' 4735 ''How''d you lift it then?''
4735''Preachin''Bill''hits it every pop, do n''t he?
4735Afraid? 4735 Ah, you are the owner of this land, then?
4735Ai n''t Ollie goin''back to the city to- morrow?
4735An''when Santa come in, he-- he wanted-- Now what d''you reckon he wanted? 4735 And Sammy, wo n''t you try to think that I am not altogether worthless, even if I am not big enough to fight Wash Gibbs?
4735And how far do you say it is to Jim Lane''s place, by the road and the Old Trail?
4735And if you should lose, you will never blame me?
4735And my degree?
4735And the woman, Sammy, the woman?
4735And what did she say?
4735And what does Pete call him?
4735And when do you start?
4735Are you not Pete?
4735Are you sure there is no one who can help you over this hard time? 4735 Are you sure this time, girl, dead sure?"
4735Are you very tired to- night?
4735Brave, old fellow,he said to the dog who trotted by his side;"are we going to make another mistake, do you think?
4735But can all this add one thing to life itself?
4735But tell me, Daddy, why ai n''t we got no folks?
4735But tell me, Sammy, is there any one in the way?
4735But tell me, did you see no one else at the house? 4735 But tell me, how are Sarah and the girls?
4735But the heart, how''ll I get a lady heart, Dad?
4735But what becomes of the sheep when Pete goes away?
4735But what does Pete mean? 4735 But who does Pete say he is?"
4735But why must you know that before you go to- morrow?
4735But you ai n''t scared?
4735But you are going to leave in the morning, are you not? 4735 But, Matt,"protested the girl;"how can you?
4735But, could you not sell the sheep for enough to save the homestead?
4735Ca n''t hit talk?
4735Ca n''t you even tell a feller, Howdy?
4735Dad Howitt would n''t, would he? 4735 Dad,"she asked,"Do you think I know enough now to live in the city?"
4735Daddy, what do you think Wash would have done to me, if Young Matt had not been there?
4735David, David; tell me, what is this thing? 4735 David, have you forgotten the prescription you gave me when you ordered me from the city?
4735Did he look like he was ailin''?
4735Did n''t Dad see? 4735 Did n''t you know that Mandy was stoppin''with me?
4735Did you hear us talkin''?
4735Did you meet someone down the road?
4735Did you reach this conclusion at the mill yesterday?
4735Do n''t you mind how that''n fooled everybody over on th''bend last year? 4735 Do you like my hills?"
4735Do you reckon I could be a fine lady, and be as I am now, a livin''here in the hills?
4735Do you-- do you read all these?
4735Do-- do-- you-- hear? 4735 Does Pete know?"
4735Does Pete like him?
4735Everything is ready, dear; would you like to go now?
4735Father-- Father; can-- you-- can-- you-- forgive me?
4735Fix-- the-- light, as it was-- please? 4735 Folks smoke here, sometimes, do they not?"
4735Forgive you, my son? 4735 Go where with Pete?
4735God,he whispered,"how can I leave this place?"
4735Going now, Daddy?
4735Going to starve yourself, were you? 4735 Going where?
4735Has anyone a better right? 4735 Have you had a good rest, David?
4735Heh? 4735 How does the violet get its perfume, Sammy?
4735How''bout that, Matt?
4735I reckon that''s because you was raised in the city,he added slowly;"is that the way folks do there?"
4735I say, Wash,called one,"What''ll you do if Young Matt''s there?"
4735I shall see you again, shall I not?
4735Is Pete watching the sheep?
4735Is it alright, son?
4735Is not life really independent of all these things? 4735 Is that all?"
4735Is that all?
4735Is the work so difficult?
4735It was you-- you who brought the horses to the ranch that night?
4735Jack got off in good time, did he?
4735Look a here, Matt,he said,"why do n''t you try that lift?
4735Matt and Ollie, a panther? 4735 May I come again to- morrow afternoon, Sammy?"
4735Meanin''that my girl do n''t want your company, and told you so?
4735Mr. Matthews,said the shepherd, in trembling tones,"for my sake, will you not hear me to the end?
4735No? 4735 Not even if it should be the grave under the pine yonder?"
4735Not me; not me; nobody ca n''t go nowhere, can they? 4735 Oh, you had a daughter, too?
4735One thing more, Doctor; can you keep up my strength for awhile?
4735Reckon them boards is fer a floor in Joe Gardner''s new cabin?
4735Reckon you must be from Kansas City or Chicago? 4735 Regret?
4735See that feller yonder? 4735 Seems like I remember bein''in a big wagon, and there was a woman there too; was she my mother?"
4735She never sleeps; do n''t you hear her?
4735So you and Sammy went for a walk, did you?
4735Sure this engine ai n''t bigger''n t''other, Joe?
4735Sure, Mister, Pete''s got a father; do n''t you know? 4735 Tell what, Daddy Jim?"
4735There is no possible chance, David?
4735Tired? 4735 Was n''t it someone hunting with you?"
4735We sure like him, do n''t we?
4735We''ll come back in the spring when it''s time to plant again, but what if you''re not here?
4735Well, what do you want?
4735Well, why in thunder do n''t you show th''boys, then?
4735What answer will you give to Young Matt when he asks you what Ollie did?
4735What are you all so keen about my liftin''for, anyhow?
4735What could I do? 4735 What do you know of the world?"
4735What do you mean?
4735What does Pete want?
4735What is it, Brave?
4735What is it, Brave?
4735What is it, Daddy? 4735 What is it?"
4735What''s Wash got agin Dad, Jim?
4735What''s he doin''here?
4735What''s th''matter with that dog?
4735What''s the matter now, Daniel? 4735 When are you goin''to the city?"
4735When did this happen, Howard?
4735When you go?
4735Where am I trying to get to?
4735Where did you learn?
4735Where will you go?
4735Where''s Ollie Stewart? 4735 Where''s Pete?
4735Which way, Pete?
4735Who could buy? 4735 Who fired it?"
4735Who is it calls Pete?
4735Who is it, Matt? 4735 Who is there?"
4735Who is your father, my boy?
4735Who''s that there feller you got with you?
4735Who?
4735Why Daddy, Daddy Jim, what is the matter?
4735Why did n''t you tell me before? 4735 Why did the man go?"
4735Why do n''t you never come down the Old Trail no more?
4735Why not?
4735Why should I fear?
4735Why, Matt, what is the matter?
4735Why, they, do n''t you know? 4735 Why, what have you been doing to yourself?"
4735Why, where did these come from?
4735With me? 4735 Would you care so mighty much, Sammy?"
4735Yes, yes; go with Pete; but where will Pete take us?
4735You are not then a native of this country?
4735You do n''t use all them dishes, do you, Dad? 4735 You find it hard to get help on the ranch?"
4735You live here, you? 4735 You live in the city, then, when you are at home?"
4735You mean Dad Howitt?
4735You think then that Mr. Matthews will keep me?
4735You will be brave and strong, Sammy?
4735You''ll be strong, father? 4735 ''Why you blame fool,''says the boas;''do you know what that engine''ll weigh?
4735Above all, what had possessed him-- what had led him to creep to his present position?
4735Again the girl broke in eagerly,"That''s just like Aunt Mollie, ai n''t it?
4735Again the man felt called upon to express his interest;"Is Mr. Lane in business with this man Gibbs?"
4735Ai n''t it fine?
4735Aloud he said,"My dear child, do you know what it is that you ask?"
4735Aloud, he asked,"Has Pete a mother, too?"
4735Aloud, he said,"Do you ever talk of going back to your old home?"
4735An ugly leer came over the brutal face of the giant;"Oh, I ai n''t, ai n''t I?
4735And for what?
4735And if you do, wo n''t it look like there was just a little, tiny streak of yellow in us?"
4735And in her room?
4735And, if it did, what?
4735Are you sure, dead sure you ai n''t thinkin''of what he''s got''stead of what he is?
4735As he awoke, he heard Pete''s voice,"Where is Dad?
4735As he disappeared in the mill shed, the young lady turned to her companion,"What''s the matter with you two?
4735At this Mandy gave up the case, saying in despair,"Well, what is he a doin''here then?
4735Back from the grave, could he come?
4735Blast it all, what do you mean?"
4735Blast it all, where IS this sheep place?"
4735Blast it all; what do you mean by it?
4735Blast it all; what does it mean, what does it all mean?
4735Blast it all; what does it mean?
4735Blast it all; what have you done to yourself?
4735Blast it all; what is he doing here?
4735But do you reckon it could o''got Matt, if God had n''t been here that night?"
4735But he was beginning to ask, are there not after all things that lie still deeper in life than even these?
4735But how long have I?
4735But how should he begin?
4735But it was a blessin''Young Matt was there, was n''t it?
4735But tell me, please, what harm could it do, if people did know I came from the country?"
4735But was there not something more than brute strength in the incident?
4735But what is the use?
4735But, Daddy, what will-- what will our friends think, if you keep on with Wash Gibbs now, after what happened at the mill to- day?
4735But, as the girl was on the point of moving, a voice said,"It''s a mighty good thing for us this old ledge happened to be here, ai n''t it?"
4735Ca n''t he come out an''play with us, Mister?"
4735Can it be-- my boy-- Howard, my son-- can it be?
4735Can the dead come back from the grave, David?"
4735Caught you did n''t I?
4735Coughlan?"
4735Could it be her father?
4735Could it be that the officers were wrong?
4735Could she learn to be a fine lady?
4735Daddy, Wash Gibbs is not our kind either, is he?"
4735Daniel lives there?
4735Did Dad see the sky?"
4735Did I not say rightly, that the old name died with Howard?
4735Did any body pass while you was a sittin''there, jest before I come in sight?"
4735Did n''t he come home with you?"
4735Did n''t you hear singin''?
4735Did n''t you hear what that man said?
4735Did you and Pete talk much this afternoon?"
4735Did you come from Springfield or St. Louis, maybe?"
4735Did you see the flower things in his eyes, and hear the tree things a talkin''in his voice, Brave?
4735Did your paw give hit to you fer a doll baby?"
4735Did-- did they take Daddy away?"
4735Do n''t Sammy know''bout that night when God was in the hills?"
4735Do n''t you believe in hants?"
4735Do n''t you hear?
4735Do n''t you know that no man ever crosses my trail an''lives?"
4735Do n''t you know?"
4735Do n''t you see how you''re losin''time?
4735Do n''t you see it is this victory only that gives you the right to think of yourself as a man?"
4735Do they not indeed cover up the real life, and rob one of freedom?
4735Do you ever get tired, girl?"
4735Do you know how happy I am, Daddy?
4735Do you know who it is?"
4735Do you know, I wonder?"
4735Do you like Pete''s people, Mister?"
4735Do you live near here?"
4735Do you reckon Dad can see Pete when he is up there in them white hills?
4735Do you reckon God would talk to God, mister?"
4735Do you reckon folks ever come back once they''re dead and gone?"
4735Do you see what I mean?"
4735Do you see?"
4735Do you think a real genuine lady could ever forget the father who had been so good to her?
4735Do you think this Mr. Lane would entertain me?"
4735Do you wear''em every day?"
4735Does Pete know about it?"
4735Does it hurt?
4735Ever hear tell o''Jim?"
4735Forget something?"
4735Forgive you?
4735Friend of mine?
4735Funny, ai n''t it?
4735Get hurt?
4735Gibbs uttered an oath,"She was, was she?
4735Had she not seen him in battle?
4735Had she not seen his eyes like polished steel points?
4735Have I not done well to stay on this spot and to give my life to this people?"
4735Have I said anything wrong again?
4735Have I?"
4735Have n''t you ridden enough to- day?
4735Have you met and quarreled since you came home?"
4735He dropped the reins to the horse''s neck again,"Look here, Sammy, do you blame me because I did not fight that big bully?"
4735Hear her callin'', callin'', callin''?
4735Her teacher could not answer for a time; then he said, in an odd, hesitating way,"Have you heard from Ollie lately?"
4735Hit''s a right pretty little thing, ai n''t hit?"
4735How are you, honey?"
4735How can I tell?
4735How can you?
4735How did you come?"
4735How do you do it?
4735How do you reckon you''ll like bein''a fine lady anyhow?"
4735How do you reckon you''ll like bein''a fine lady, and livin''in the city with them big folks?"
4735How does the bird learn to sing its song?"
4735How far is it to this Matthews place, and how do I go?"
4735How many times have I told you that you must not-- you must not slice the ham with your pocket knife?
4735How''re you goin''to get there in time?"
4735How''s the little doctor?
4735How-- where did you find it?"
4735Huntin''?
4735I reckon you know you''re welcome, same as always, do n''t you?"
4735I would stay, too, but what would Sarah and the girls do?
4735I''d rather be like-- like--""Like what, child?"
4735I-- but it was very fortunate that Young Matt was there, was n''t it?"
4735If this man Dewey were only here, do you suppose--?"
4735In connection with this discussion, it was easy to speak of Miss Lane''s fairy prospects, for, was not the stranger from the city?
4735Is Matt hurt?
4735Is he a friend of yourn?"
4735Is he-- is he well?"
4735Is it the railroads then that makes one so-- so superior?"
4735Is that it?"
4735Is there NO way?"
4735Know him?"
4735Lifting his huge paws, he said in a voice hoarse with deadly menace,"Dirty, be they?
4735Like the moaning of the pines came the reply,"Nothin'', Mister, nobody ca n''t mean nothin'', can they?
4735Look at him, will you?
4735Maybe you come t''look fer the big mine they say''s in th''cave?
4735Me tired?
4735Me tired?"
4735Might he not force it open?
4735Mr. Howitt asked,"Who, boy?
4735Mr. Howitt nodded; then, moved by a sudden impulse, pointed to the money, and said,"Does Pete see this?
4735Mr. Howitt pointed to the grave;"You mean she sleeps there?"
4735Mr. Howitt, following his companion''s whispered instructions, spoke aloud,"What''s the matter, Brave?"
4735Mr. Howitt, remembering his conversation with Jed Holland, asked encouragingly,"Is this mine a very rich one?"
4735Mutton-- Mutton Hollow?
4735My God, David, what am I saying?
4735Next holding Ollie with one huge hand at the back of his neck, Wash said,"See that feller in th''wagon there?
4735Nobody ca n''t have no name, can he?"
4735Nobody ca n''t know nothin'', can they?"
4735Nobody ca n''t mean nothin'', can they?"
4735Oh!--if that short summer could have been lengthened-- into years, what might I not have done?
4735Oh, blast it all, where is that step?
4735Once he startled his old friend by saying quietly,"When are you goin'', Dad?"
4735Or has your day been long and tiresome?
4735Or was his fury only sleeping, waiting to destroy the one who should wake it?
4735Or was n''t hit on th''way home from th''settlement?"
4735Reckon you know''bout Colonel Dewey, him th''Bal''up thar''s named fer?
4735Regret?"
4735Releasing his daughter, Mr. Lane said,"Got anything to eat, honey?
4735Sammy finished with her answer to Mandy Ford''s opinion of the stranger;"You do n''t reckon a revenue would ask a blessin'', do you, Daddy?
4735Sammy greeted the youth kindly,"I have n''t seen Pete for days and days; where has he been?"
4735Sammy laughed aloud, as she cried,"Me got anything that anybody would want?
4735Sammy paused with one hand on the cupboard door to ask,"With Wash Gibbs, Daddy?"
4735Sammy turned upon her helpless friend, with,"How do I know if I would like it or not?
4735Sammy was struggling with a knot in the other shoe lace;"Yes,"she admitted slowly;"I reckon I had ought to know; but what do you say it is, Mandy?"
4735Saw whom, lad?
4735Say, Mister, did you ever see a hant?"
4735Say, do you know where he is?"
4735See him, Mister?
4735She was calling, calling-- would he come back?
4735Some secret spring of youth in the wilderness?
4735Something in her voice or manner caused Jim to hold his daughter at arm''s length, and look full into the brown eyes;"What do you mean, girl?"
4735Take your stayin''here in Mutton Hollow, now; honest, Dad, ai n''t you afear''d to stay here all alone at nights?"
4735Tell me Daniel, what do you mean by this strange business, this very strange business?"
4735That Hollow down there you say; way down there?
4735That''s our word, now, is n''t it, Dad?
4735The big fellow smiled,"Tired?
4735The boy shook his head;"Not me; not me;"he said;"do you like Pete?"
4735The giant at Mr. Howitt''s side growled under his breath,"Oh, I''m sick, am I?
4735The girl caught his hand;"You-- you wo n''t leave me, Dad?
4735The girl hid her face on her father''s shoulder, as she said,"Daddy, will Wash Gibbs come here any more now?
4735The girl looked up suspiciously;"Are you a jokin''?"
4735The girl placed her armful of dishes carefully on the cupboard shelf;"You''re-- you''re not going to forget your promise, are you, Daddy Jim?"
4735The girl stamped her foot impatiently, as she exclaimed aloud,"Oh, why did he not TRY to do something?
4735The guest, feeling that some sort of a reply was expected, asked,"Is the family moving from the neighborhood?"
4735The horses were crowding more closely together now, and, leaning forward, the girl looked up into his face;"What''s the matter, Matt?
4735The little white- faced, washed out runt, what is he?
4735The man started and looked at the boy in wonder;"But why, why should it come to me at such a time as this?"
4735The moonlight things was out, and all the shadow things; did n''t you see them, Mister?
4735The other hesitated, then asked,"Does Pete want Dad to take a gun?"
4735The other spoke quickly;"But Pete had a father; who was Pete''s father?"
4735The shepherd spoke again,"Dewey Bald?"
4735The shepherd tried again,"Who does Pete say it is?"
4735The stranger, startled, drew back;"No, no, my boy, certainly not; what do you mean; who are you?"
4735Then Jim, his hand still inside his shirt, drawled, softly, but with a queer metallic ring in his voice,"Do you reckon it''s a goin''t''storm again?"
4735Then he stopped and asked,"Where''s your gun, Dad?
4735Then he turned to Jed, and asked,"Is there a house near here?"
4735Then his voice broke;"You wo n''t never be learned away from your old Daddy, will you, honey?
4735Then the two in the bushes distinctly heard the last man in the line ask his companion,"Do you reckon he''ll put up a fight?"
4735Then two arms went around his neck;"What is it, Daddy?
4735Then what would Sarah and the girls do?
4735Then with a twinkle in his eye,"Which one of the boys are you, anyway?"
4735Then, as he glanced quickly around,"Where''s Pete?"
4735Then, taking a cob pipe from his pocket, he added, politely,"May I smoke?"
4735Think they will?"
4735Through a curtained opening at the right, a light showed from another apartment, and a voice called,"Is that you, Pete?"
4735Upon his demanding a reason for her coldness, she answered,"Do n''t you see that everything is different now?
4735WHAT IS LOVE?
4735Was he in truth, David, poorer or richer than we?"
4735Was the river up much when you come acrost?"
4735Was the strong man''s passion really tame?
4735Was there not that which lay deeper?
4735We aim t''always come back t''Mutton Holler onct a year, an''be just like other folks; do n''t we, Sammy?"
4735We must both begin all over again, do n''t you see?"
4735Well, have they?"
4735Well, what would Sarah and the girls say?
4735Well, who was th''man?"
4735Whar do you live when you''re to home?"
4735Whar was you tryin''to git to, Mister?"
4735What could the man in the chair be thinking about?
4735What do you mean, boy?"
4735What do you reckon they''re thinkin''?
4735What else is there?"
4735What have you done?"
4735What horrible trap had they set for her Daddy, her Daddy Jim?
4735What if HE was to come, too?
4735What if there should be a tree blown across the road?
4735What if you should meet that panther between here and home?"
4735What is bein''a fine lady, anyhow?"
4735What is he, Dad?
4735What is it?
4735What is the matter, Daddy, that he could stay and be so thick with you after the things you said?
4735What is the matter?
4735What is your other name?"
4735What might YER name be, Mister?"
4735What might she not lose?
4735What should she do?
4735What terrible thing was this that she had happened upon in the night?
4735What would Aunt Mollie say if she saw that, so haggled and one sided?"
4735What would Sarah and the girls say?
4735What would Sarah and the girls say?"
4735What would Sarah and the girls say?"
4735What would she gain?
4735What would this beautiful creature be, had she their training?
4735What you ask me for?"
4735What''s new over to the Forks?"
4735What''s wrong, Howard?
4735When he had finished, Mr. Howitt asked gently,"Have I not done right, David?
4735When his patient had taken the medicine, the doctor watched him for a few minutes, and then asked,"Feel stronger, Howard?"
4735When the morning meal was finished, Mr. Howitt said,"David, will you think me rude, if I leave you alone to- day?
4735When they finally moved on again, the Doctor said,"And you never knew?
4735Where did you git that there?
4735Where do you want to go?
4735Where do you want us to go, boy?"
4735Where does Pete think Dad is going?"
4735Where does the rose get its color?
4735Where had he come from?
4735Where will he take us?
4735Where''s Pete?
4735Which way is the house?
4735Who but He that looketh upon the heart of man could know the battle that was fought in the soul of that giant of the hills?
4735Who but Young Matt could get work from the old engine?
4735Who could tell?
4735Who is it, if it ai n''t you?"
4735Who told Pete to come for Dad?"
4735Who was he?
4735Who was that feller talkin''with you an''th''old man down yonder?"
4735Who was that in the other room?
4735Whom did you see?"
4735Why ai n''t we got no folks, Daddy?"
4735Why do n''t you come up like a man?
4735Why do n''t you drive that man away?"
4735Why do n''t you go on?
4735Why do n''t you open up an''see who we are?"
4735Why do n''t you talk as you write?
4735Why do n''t you talk to me?
4735Why had he followed that impulse to stand again where he had stood that afternoon?
4735Why had he not gone on to his home after leaving the shepherd?
4735Why should I blame anyone for that which he can not help?"
4735Why should any one wish to harm me?
4735Why was he there at all?
4735Will Mr. Matthews keep me, do you think?"
4735Will Pete tell me all about it?"
4735Will you always stand by Daddy, like you do now?
4735Will you excuse us, father, while Dr. Coughlan looks at this thing here in my side?"
4735Will you let me and Young Matt slip''round once in a while, just to look at, you, all so fine?"
4735Will you mind very much?
4735Will you side with Wash?
4735Will you tell your Daddy, Sammy?"
4735Wo n''t you tell Dad to come, please?"
4735Would he never finish scrubbing the floor in that corner?
4735Would it do to leave them alone with the graves on the hill yonder, and the mystery of the Hollow?
4735Would it ever open for him?
4735You are sure that you do not blame me for what happened at the mill?"
4735You know all about Ollie and me goin''to get married, I reckon?"
4735You know the Matthews''s, I reckon?"
4735You know what I feel toward her?
4735You mind old man Lewis, I reckon?"
4735You say yourself that it will be war between them now?
4735You wo n''t leave me alone?
4735You-- you know-- Ollie''s goin''away, an''--an''--an''I was thinkin''about it all day yesterday, an'', Daddy, why ai n''t we got no folks?"
4735Your name, sir?"
4735afraid of what?"
4735ai n''t I a lookin''it in the face every day?
4735and was not Sammy going to live in that land of wonders?
4735but that would sure be fine, would n''t it, Matt?
4735exclaimed the other,"you have only one child then?"
4735for my sake?"
4735or who would buy, if they could, in this country, without a bit of feed?
4735said the big man;"How''s Pete to- day?"
4735something of which the brute strength, after all, was only an expression?
4735that there was no one at the cabin after all?
4735what does it all mean?"
4735who is there?
23700Are ill things then made after this fashion?
23700Do you begin to do deeds ere you come to say words? 23700 How?"
23700Nay, madam,rejoined Dioneo,"fash not yourself; but which then like you better?
23700Who, then, are you?
23700''Alack, Gianni mine, knowst thou not what it is?
23700''Alack, doctor,''cried Bruno,''what is this you ask me?
23700''Alack, father mine, what say you?''
23700''Alack, sir,''answered the sick man,''you, who seem to me a man of God, how can you say such words?
23700''Alack, sir,''cried Biondello,''what is this?''
23700''Alack, sweet my soul, what is this thou sayest?
23700''Alack,''cried the lady,''hast thou then been straitened for lack of money?
23700''Am I then dead?''
23700''And I will do it,''[193] rejoined he;''but what guerdon am I to have of you for such a service?''
23700''And did you say it[82] this morning?''
23700''And doth not your husband lie with you?''
23700''And for what cause?''
23700''And how is it to be exorcised?''
23700''And how many miles is it distant hence?''
23700''And thou,''retorted she,''why goest thou not for thy master?
23700''And what canst thou do to me?''
23700''And what might this"shrewdly to my profit"be?''
23700''And what was it that moved thee to such compassion of us?''
23700''And who is the damsel, my lord?''
23700''And who was thy father?''
23700''Ay do we,''replied he,''as well as other men; and why not?
23700''But how,''asked she,''can he go thither alive?''
23700''But what means,''asked Calandrino,''can we find?''
23700''Did we not go to bed together here?
23700''Do I not tell you?''
23700''Do the dead eat?''
23700''Do the dead ever return thither?''
23700''Dost thou not know me?
23700''Go to, son,''rejoined the friar;''what is this thou sayest?
23700''Good lack,''repeated Bruno,''can it be?''
23700''Hath he not given over annoying thee?''
23700''How can that be?
23700''How can that be?''
23700''How so?''
23700''How so?''
23700''How so?''
23700''How, sayest thou?''
23700''How, then, shall we do?''
23700''How, then,''asked the jealous man,''can the priest also lie with you?''
23700''How?''
23700''How?''
23700''How?''
23700''How?''
23700''How?''
23700''How?''
23700''How?''
23700''How?''
23700''I have enough and to spare of such things; but an you wish me so well, why do you not render me a service, and I will do what you will?''
23700''In what?''
23700''Marry,''cried Calandrino,''that were a fine country; but tell me, what is done with the capons that they boil for broth?''
23700''Marry,''replied the other,''how can we do it?''
23700''O ay,''replied the lady,''I know thou art a chilly one; is then the cold so exceeding great, because, forsooth, there is a little snow about?
23700''O my son,''quoth the friar,''seemeth this to thee so heinous a sin?
23700''Or if,''went on her fellow,''we should prove with child, how would it go then?''
23700''That is true,''rejoined the inquisitor;''but why did these words move thee thus?''
23700''Then what wouldst thou have done?''
23700''Then,''said Calandrino,''it must be farther off than the Abruzzi?''
23700''Then,''said the lady,''I am to become a widow?''
23700''Then,''said the man,''to whom doth he send me?''
23700''They have but one thigh and one leg?
23700''Things are lost that are not to be found,''replied Tingoccio;''and how should I be here, if I were lost?''
23700''Thinkest thou that I am a saint, because thou keepest me mewed up?
23700''Thou knowest not what I mean?
23700''Thou tossest?
23700''We have not so much as tasted it,''replied he; and she said,''How was that?''
23700''Well hast thou done,''said the friar;''but hast thou often been angered?''
23700''Well, then,''said Bruno,''how is it fashioned?''
23700''What a devil?''
23700''What aileth thee to pull such a face?
23700''What bigness is this stone,''asked Calandrino,''and what is its colour?''
23700''What doth that concern thee which great kings do to one another?
23700''What is that?''
23700''What meaneth Dolladoxy?''
23700''What meaneth this?''
23700''What?''
23700''What?''
23700''Who art thou?''
23700''Who is there?''
23700''Why did not she give the priest wine of the cask against the wall?''
23700''Why dost thou ask me?''
23700''Why dost thou not welcome Tedaldo, as do the other ladies?''
23700''Wife,''answered Egano,''what is this whereof thou askest me?
23700''Worth?''
23700''You did not call on them?
23700Accordingly he came down and his master said to him,''Now, what sayst thou thou sawest?''
23700Again, hath it so soon dropped your memory that it was the violences done of Manfred to women that opened you the entry into this kingdom?
23700Again, who is there knoweth not your virtue?
23700Alack, why dost thou not go to sleep for to- night?
23700Am I asleep or awake?
23700Am I not as fair as Ricciardo''s wife, thou villain?
23700Am I not as good a gentlewoman?
23700Am I so changed?
23700An they believe not themselves able to abstain and lead a devout life, why do they not rather abide at home?
23700An you have a mind unto this, you have store of goodly chambers; why go you not do it in one of these?
23700And I tell thee more, we do far and away better work and knowest thou why?
23700And Mistress Tessa, what aileth her?
23700And certes I confess I did ill; but who is there doth not ill bytimes?
23700And for whom?
23700And how can I be so graceless as to offer to take this from a gentleman who hath none other pleasure left?''
23700And in what company could I betake me more contentedly or with better assurance to the regions unknown than with it?
23700And this being so( as I know it was) what cause should have availed to move you so harshly to withdraw yourself from him?
23700And thou, Pyrrhus, in whom I most trusted?''
23700And what a devil are we women good for, once we are old, save to keep the ashes about the fire- pot?
23700And who could keep himself therefrom, seeing men do unseemly things all day long, keeping not the commandments of God neither fearing His judgment?
23700And who will deny that this[ comfort], whatsoever[ worth] it be, it behoveth much more to give unto lovesick ladies than unto men?
23700And who would not have believed it, hearing a man at the point of death speak thus?
23700And you, madam, are you not ashamed to suffer it in my presence?
23700Art thou for building, that we see all these stones here?
23700Art thou grown dumb, hearing me?
23700At last, he made believe to awake for stress of shaking, and calling to Adriano, said,''Is it already day, that thou callest me?''
23700Belcolore, hearing require the cloak again, would have answered; but her husband said, with an angry air,''Takest thou a pledge of his reverence?
23700Belcolore, who was gone up into the hay- loft, hearing him, said,''Marry, sir, you are welcome; but what do you gadding it abroad in this heat?''
23700Besides, can you wonder at her having a mind to hear the nightingale sing, seeing she is but a child?
23700Buffalmacco, seeing this, said to Bruno,''What shall we do?
23700But I pray you make me clear of one thing; how knew you that I was here?''
23700But hath anger at any time availed to move thee to do any manslaughter or to bespeak any one unseemly or do any other unright?''
23700But how shall we do, so Buffalmacco may not know?
23700But let us come to the fact; tell me, do you remember, ever to have had a lover?''
23700But now you were sore disordered; how cometh it you have so quickly recovered that you do such things?
23700But tell me, God keep thee merry, is there none of those wonder- working stones to be found in these parts?''
23700But tell me, who art thou that usest me thus?''
23700But tell me, who is more akin to your child, I who held him at baptism or your husband who begat him?''
23700But thou, that are more cruel than any wild beast, how couldst thou have the heart to torture me after this fashion?
23700But what booteth it now to repine?
23700But what booteth it to set out to you in detail all the lands explored by me?
23700But what doth Pinuccio yonder?
23700But what say I of our Fra Rinaldo, of whom we speak?
23700But what shall we say to those who have such compassion on my hunger that they counsel me provide myself bread?
23700But what wouldst thou have me say to her on thy part, if I should chance to get speech of her?''
23700But what[ skilleth it]?
23700But why dost thou ask me thereof?''
23700But why need I enumerate them to you?
23700But why should I enlarge in so many words?
23700But why should I hark back after every particular?
23700But you, sir, can you not tell me aught of her?''
23700But, after all, what booteth this dream?
23700But, an it be so, what can I do in this that you desire?''
23700But, an thou have so great a wish to descend, why dost thou not cast thyself down?
23700But, let us see; maybe Tedaldo deserved this usage?
23700But, should they put out mine eyes or draw my teeth or lop off my hands or play me any other such trick, how shall I do?
23700But, tell me, hast thou sinned by way of avarice, desiring more than befitted or withholding that which it behoved thee not to withhold?''
23700Calandrino incontinent began to quake and said,''Alack, how so?
23700Calandrino, hearing them all in the same tale, held it for certain that he was in an ill way and asked them, all aghast,''what shall I do?''
23700Can I have some rotten tooth in my head?''
23700Can it be that aught aileth me?''
23700Can it be that this he saith appeareth to him to be true?
23700Can it be true that I hold thee?''
23700Can the physician have returned or other accident befallen, by reason whereof the lady hath hidden me here, I being asleep?
23700Ciacco, well pleased, paid him and rested not till he found Biondello, to whom quoth he,''Hast thou been late at the Cavicciuoli Gallery?''
23700Deemest thou I should do well to fetch it?''
23700Deemest thou me a child, to be flouted on this wise?''
23700Deemest thou they have two legs?''
23700Deemest thou, husband mine, I am as blind of the eyes of the body as thou of those of the mind?
23700Did I not bid thee say not a word for aught that thou shouldst see?
23700Did I not deal thee a thousand buffets and cut off thy hair?''
23700Did I not return hither, after running after thy lover?
23700Did he ever give you any offence?''
23700Disse Alibech: O che?
23700Do monks such things?''
23700Do priests do such things?''
23700Dost thou not know thyself, good for nought?
23700Dost thou not know thyself, losel that thou art?
23700Dost thou take me for Ercolano''s wife?
23700Doth he rave?''
23700Doth it beseem holy men to require women, who come to them for counsel, of such things?''
23700Doth it irk thee that I should beat thee?''
23700Doth not your husband lie with you?''
23700Ferondo, weeping and crying out, did nought but ask,''Where am I?''
23700Good lack, why dost thou not sup, an thou have a mind to sup?
23700Had I ever had the least thought of doing any one of the things whereof you speak, think you I believe that God would so long have forborne me?
23700Hast thou no regard for thy kinsfolk''s honour and thine own?
23700Hast thou the face to bandy pleasantries at such a time?
23700Hath it then escaped thy mind between this and matinsong that thou hast outraged some one this very morning?
23700Have I crucified Christ?''
23700Have I never seen a crane before?''
23700Have I well performed my promise to thee?''
23700Have you heard how your fine brother- in- law here entreateth your sister?
23700Have you then brought me hither for this?
23700He answered,''Hearest thou not what he saith he hath done this night unto Niccolosa?''
23700He hath kept us all night upon thorns and hath caused thee freeze; but knowest thou what?
23700He knew that I was a woman; why, then, did he take me to wife, if women were not to his mind?
23700Her mother and brothers, seeing and hearing all this, turned upon her husband and said to him,''What meanest thou, Arriguccio?
23700How can this be?
23700How canst thou choose him, seeing he hath nothing in the world?''
23700How could I abide quiet?
23700How did it happen?
23700How is a man to live with women?
23700How know I, madam, but you do the like in the election of your lovers?
23700How many women do you see whose charms are such as mine, who would be fair in Paradise?''
23700How say you now, lovesome ladies?
23700How sayst thou?''
23700How shall I bring forth this child?
23700How shall I do?
23700However, Fortarrigo still stood to it, as it were not spoken to him and said,''Ecod, why wilt thou not better me these three shillings?
23700However, after long parley, a priest said,''What fear ye?
23700I told thee that I loved a priest, and wast not thou, whom I am much to blame to love as I do, become a priest?
23700I told thee that the priest lay with me every night, and when was it that thou layest not with me?
23700I was the first man whom he told that he was to marry Bergamina: seest thou now?''
23700If thus, then, it be, as is manifestly to be seen, what do we here?
23700Is it because I have plucked out maybe half a dozen hairs of thy beard?
23700Is it good?''
23700Is there no more water to be found in the world?''
23700Is this of the justice of kings, that they who resort on such wise to their arms should be entreated after such a fashion, be they who they may?
23700Is this the love you bear Spinelloccio and the loyal companionship you practise towards him?''
23700It is not the month of October''?"
23700Knowest thou it not?
23700Knowest thou not that we have promised our virginity to God?''
23700Knowest thou who these are thou wouldst have burnt?''
23700Marry, seemeth it to thee thou hast not enough to do at home, that thou must go wantoning it in other folk''s preserves?
23700Marry, who but we had been simple enough to believe that a stone of such virtue was to be found in the Mugnone?''
23700Marry, why didst thou not require me thereof?
23700Marry, why should we not better ourselves by these three shillings?''
23700Martuccio, seeing his mistress, abode awhile dumb for amazement, then said sighing,''O my Costanza, art thou then yet alive?
23700Melisso and Giosefo stood watching this and said often to the muleteer,''Alack, wretch that thou art, what dost thou?
23700Meseemeth thou hast a mind to do nought to- day, that I see thee come back, tools in hand; and if thou do thus, on what are we to live?
23700Messer Geri, having seen him do thus one and two mornings, said on the third,''How now, Cisti?
23700Meuccio awoke and said,''Who art thou?''
23700Moreover, when shall I ever find such a lover as Il Zima?
23700Must we needs be gone already?
23700Now with whom thinkest thou to have been?
23700Or what know I but maybe some enemy of mine hath procured me this, whom she belike loveth and seeketh to oblige therein?''
23700Or, if they will e''en give themselves unto this,[185] why do they not ensue that other holy saying of the Gospel,"Christ began to do and to teach?
23700Pietro, hearing this, straightway lifted up his head and Fineo, speaking in Armenian, said to him,''What countryman art thou and whose son?''
23700Presently, Messer Gentile coming up, one of his guests said to him,''Sir, this is a fair creature of yours, but she seemeth to us mute; is she so?''
23700Presently,''What meaneth this?''
23700Quoth Alessandro,''How shall I go into the abbot''s chamber, seeing thou knowest it is little and of its straitness none of his monks might lie there?
23700Quoth Bruno to Buffalmacco,''How deemest thou?
23700Quoth Bruno,''Will thy heart serve thee to touch her with a script I shall give thee?''
23700Quoth Calandrino,''Deemest thou, gossip?
23700Quoth Calandrino,''Methinketh it is she, for that he called her and she went to him in the chamber; but what of that?
23700Quoth Calandrino,''These be indeed great virtues; but where is this second stone found?''
23700Quoth Ferondo,''And how far are we from our own countries?''
23700Quoth Mistress Featherbrain,''And who chastised you thus?''
23700Quoth he to her,''Why dost thou not get thee to bed?
23700Quoth he,''And what sin hast thou committed that thou wouldst confess?''
23700Quoth her husband,''Go to; thinkest thou I believe in the howlers?
23700Quoth she,''An thou be of Constantinople and newly come hither, how knowest thou who I am or who is my husband?''
23700Quoth she,''Seest thou not?''
23700Quoth the friar,''Say you so?
23700Quoth the girl,''And how far is it hence to any habitations where I may have a lodging for the night?''
23700Quoth the good woman,''And what is that, madam, which you would have him do?''
23700Quoth the holy friar,''What aileth thee, my son?''
23700Quoth the inquisitor,''Heardest thou aught therein whereof thou doubtest or would question?''
23700Quoth the lady,''Of what heat dost thou speak, daughter?
23700Quoth the lady,''What may this be?
23700Quoth the painter,''Hath aught ailed thee this night?
23700Quoth the son,"And how are they called?"
23700See p. 389, where the lady says to her lover,"Whether seemeth to thee the greater, his wit or the love I bear him?"
23700Seem my charms to you such as those of yonder others?
23700Seemeth to thee that I know how to make folk jig it without sound of trump or bagpipe?''
23700Shall we say, because it burneth houses and villages and cities, that it is naught?
23700Shall we say, then, because it harmeth the fevered, that it is naught?
23700Shall we, then, follow after these who are thus fashioned?
23700Shall''s do''t?''
23700She laughed and answered,''What is it I do to you?''
23700Should I cast it to the dogs?
23700That cloak?
23700The abbess, hearing him speak whom she held dumb, was all amazed and said,''What is this?
23700The abbess, taking not her meaning, answered,''What coif, vile woman that thou art?
23700The beauty of yonder damsel deserveth to be loved of all, and if I love her, who am young, who can justly blame me therefor?
23700The gentleman, going up, found his wife at the stairhead, all disordered and fearful, and said to her,''What is all this?
23700The good simple man, hearing this, was like to swoon and said,''How so?''
23700The host, hearing this talk and being not overwell pleased therewith, said first in himself,''What a devil doth this fellow here?''
23700The ladies asked,''How putteth one the devil in hell?''
23700The lady turned to her husband and said,''What saith Pyrrhus?
23700The lady turned to him and said, smiling somewhat,''Speak you to me, sir?
23700The lady, having solaced herself with her lover till near upon midnight, said to him,''How deemest thou, my soul, of our scholar?
23700The lady, hearing this, hesitated awhile, then said,''How?
23700The lady, hearing this, was all aghast and answered,''Alack, father mine, what is this you ask?
23700The lady, laughing, for that she was a frolicsome dame and doubtless had cause to laugh, answered merrily;''How?
23700The lady, turning round haughtily, answered,''What meaneth this?
23700The lady, who had heard it much better than he, made a show of awaking and said,''Eh?
23700The maid turned back into the house and betook herself to bed, whilst the lady said to her gallant,''Well, how sayst thou?
23700The other, hearing this and having now a greater itch than her companion to prove what manner beast a man was, said,''Well, then, how shall we do?''
23700The women, hearing this, began to say,''Who is there?''
23700The young lady, seeing this, drew him up into her lap and said, well nigh weeping,''Alack, sweet my lord, what aileth thee?''
23700Then how, at the bidding of a scurvy, envious numskull of a friar, could you take such a cruel resolve against him?
23700Then said Calandrino,''Wast thou ever there?''
23700Then said Ferondo,''Is there none here other than we twain?''
23700Then said the damsel,''Since I can go no otherwhere, will it please you harbour me here to- night for the love of God?''
23700Then said the friar,''Well, hast thou done aught else?''
23700Then said the husband''Where art thou?
23700Then, rising to her feet,''Brothers mine,''quoth she,''you are welcome; but what go you all three seeking at this hour?''
23700Then, turning to her, where she stood, all shamefast and confounded, he said to her,''Griselda, wilt thou have me to thy husband?''
23700There be all the queens in the world, even, I may say, to the Sirreverence of Prester John, who hath his horns amiddleward his arse; see you now?
23700There, coming into the chamber, he cried out angrily, saying,''Where art thou, vile woman?
23700Therewithal Calandrino fell to crying out and saying,''Alack, why will you drive me to desperation and make me blaspheme God and the Saints?
23700Think you I am blind?
23700Think you I can not see?''
23700Think you he will eat you?
23700Think you to do with me as you did with Biliuzza, who went off with the ghittern- player?
23700Think you you can not be requited the loss of a horse and of some small matter of clothes?
23700Thinkest thou I shall not be able to oblige thee therewith another time?
23700Thinkest thou I will suffer thee pawn my gown and my other poor clothes?
23700Thinkest thou by importunity to overcome this lady''s chastity, that thou climbest up to her windows anights by the trees?
23700Thinkest thou not to find here who shall give thee baptism?
23700Thinkest thou she can hold out?
23700Thinkest thou that, an I wished him such weal as thou fearest, I would suffer him stand a- freezing down yonder?''
23700Thinkest thou this that thou hast done is a jesting matter?''
23700Thinkest thou thou couldst make a conquest of him?''
23700Thinkest thou to make me believe that it hath flown away?''
23700Thou art his; and what should he regard or succour, an he regard not neither succour thee?
23700Thou wilt not?
23700To do it in three casts and cause it stand by dint of cudgelling?
23700To give an hundred years is no great boon; how much less, then, is it to give the six or eight I have yet to abide here?
23700To whom have I borne so much love these many years?
23700To whom pertaineth it more than unto him?
23700Was he not accomplished in such things as pertain unto young men?
23700Was he not handsome among all his townsmen?
23700Was he not loved, cherished and well seen of every one?
23700Was he not noble and young?
23700Was he not palsied?''
23700Was it not far better to gratify withal a gentleman who loveth me more than himself, than to leave it waste or spoil?''
23700Was it six florins?''
23700Were you not forewarned of this?''
23700What awaitest thou here, now that thou hast supped?''
23700What be this?
23700What books, what words, what letters are holier, worthier, more venerable than those of the Divine Scriptures?
23700What can be a greater glory for thee than that such a lady, so fair and so noble, should love thee over all else?
23700What canst thou do to me?''
23700What chains, what prison, what gibbets had sufficed thereunto?
23700What deemest thou aileth me?''
23700What dream we?
23700What else could have made him so forward to vouchsafe his sister to his friend, albeit he saw him very poor and reduced to the extreme of misery?
23700What hast thou to do in Sicily?''
23700What hast thou to do often of him?
23700What hath she more than I?
23700What have you made me eat?''
23700What is all this ado?''
23700What is it worth?''
23700What is the cause of this grief?
23700What is this thou sendest to say to me with thy"rubify me"and thy"minions"?
23700What is this violence?''
23700What is this you do?
23700What look we for?
23700What mare sawest thou ever without a tail?
23700What meaneth this tossing?''
23700What meaneth this?
23700What meaneth this?''
23700What monks are there that do not thus?
23700What more could I expect from thee or any other, if I had done all thy kinsfolk to death with the cruellest torments?
23700What more could you do, had he bestowed her upon a churl, a losel or a slave?
23700What more shall we say of the ill- starred lady?
23700What more should I tell you?
23700What more[ need I say?]
23700What more[ shall I say?]
23700What other object, then, could fill my sight, Enough of pleasance e''er To kindle in my breast a new desire?
23700What other than a crack- brain like thee, who has suffered thyself to be blinded by thy jealousy, had failed to understand these things?
23700What sayst thou, Calandrino?
23700What wilt thou do, an she tell her brothers?''
23700What would be said of you, an you should do it?
23700What would you say, were I in the street, as he is, and he in the house, as am I?
23700What, then, charming ladies, shall we say of Cimon?
23700What, then, gentle ladies, will you say[ of this case]?
23700What, then, wilt thou do, Titus?
23700What, was not I enough for thee?
23700When I am old?
23700When and where can we be together?''
23700When didst thou beat me?
23700When he came back, Bruno said to him softly,''Hast seen her?''
23700When the lady saw him do this, she said,''Alack, Zeppa, what meaneth this?
23700When they had gone some distance, the good man asked his wife,''What befell of our young woman, who came thither yestereve?
23700When wast thou in this house to- night till now, let alone with me?
23700When will he ever render me them[174] again?
23700Whence shall he issue?
23700Whence shall we get bread?
23700Where am I?
23700Where and on what settest thou thy mind and thy love and thy hope?
23700Where wast thou this morning a little before day?''
23700Wherefore, then, wilt thou put them to death, whenas thou shouldst rather honour them with the greatest favours and boons at thy commandment?''
23700Whereto she answered, with an offended air,''Good lack, sir friar, have you no eyes in your head?
23700Whereupon her brothers, making mock of her, said''Silly woman that thou art, what is this thou sayest?
23700Whereupon quoth Pietro, who loved her exceedingly,''Lady mine, how wilt thou have me abide here?
23700Whereupon quoth Pyrrhus,''What booteth it to make words of the matter?
23700Whereupon quoth the man, recognizing her,''Alack, madam, who hath brought you up yonder?
23700Whereupon said he,''What can this be?
23700Whereupon the pilgrim, rising to his feet, hastily cast off his palmer''s gown and hat and speaking Florence- fashion, said,''And know you me?''
23700Whether seemeth to thee the greater, his wit or the love I bear him?
23700Which Aldobrandino seeing,''What is this, Ermellina?''
23700Which of thy peers knowest thou who fareth better by way of delight than thou mayst fare, an thou be wise?
23700Whither go I?
23700Whither lettest thou thyself be carried away by delusive love, whither by fallacious hope?
23700Who but Griselda could, with a countenance, not only dry,[483] but cheerful, have endured the barbarous and unheard proofs made by Gualtieri?
23700Who came hither?''
23700Who ever saw any, other than thou, lament for that which he himself hath willed?
23700Who ever so commended him as thou didst in all those praiseworthy things wherefor a man of worth should be commended?
23700Who is it hath been here?
23700Who is it sneezeth thus?"
23700Who is within there?''
23700Who knoweth not that fire is most useful, nay, necessary to mortals?
23700Who knoweth not that without money idleness may not endure?
23700Who that saw him come had not deemed him palsied in good earnest?''
23700Who then, letting be wilfulness and considering with reason, will commend your counsels above those of my Gisippus?
23700Who will know it?
23700Who would so have quickly apprehended every particular of my intelligence as hath this worthy man?
23700Who, other than I, had known to make such a lady so quickly in love with me?
23700Whom goeth Messer Lambertuccio threatening thus in such a fury?''
23700Whom, then, lovest thou?
23700Why all this haste?
23700Why answerest thou not, wicked man?
23700Why are we more sluggish and slower to provide for our safety than all the rest of the townsfolk?
23700Why bideth he not in his own bed?''
23700Why did you call on God and the Saints?
23700Why did you not say to me,"Make it thou"?
23700Why do we not get us gone?''
23700Why dost thou not answer, thou sorry dog?
23700Why dost thou not call him to come help thee?
23700Why goest thou still wandering about the house?''
23700Why sayst thou not somewhat?
23700Why should we not?
23700Why studiest thou not to manage him by fair means and gentle dealing?
23700Why waste I my youth?
23700Will it please you have''Come forth unto us, so it may be cut down, like a May in the midst of the meadows''?"
23700Will the cold which I presently cause him suffer do away from thy mind the doubts which my pleasantries aroused therein the other day?''
23700Will''t ever chance I may once more regain Th''estate whence sorry fortune hath me torn?
23700Wilt have a pair of shoes or a head- lace or a fine stammel waistband or what thou wilt?''
23700Wilt thou for the sake of a lewd and disorderly appetite, forsake thine honour and me, who love thee more than my life?
23700Wilt thou kill the beast?
23700Wilt thou never think to come home betimes?
23700Wilt thou not come thither, thou?''
23700Wilt thou rather abide here for this man''s whore and in mortal sin than at Pisa as my wife?
23700You are my gossip; how can I do this?
23700You know not what it meaneth?
23700You left me but now, after having taken pleasure of me beyond your wo nt, and do you return so soon?
23700You say forsooth you will enforce yourself; to what?
23700Your maid hath gone seeking you all day; but who had ever thought you could be here?''
23700Zeppa, coming up, said,''Wife, is it dinner- time?''
23700[ 176] But tell me, what was the occasion of your falling out with him?
23700[ 404] And wilt thou judge an I say sooth?
