39542With that guerdon in mind let the mountaineering reader ask himself,"Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow?"
39542was the reply,"but do n''t you wish you could?"
34466A what?
34466A_ maronnier_, eh?
34466And did he?
34466And do you doubt that it was?
34466And what has occupied your thoughts?
34466And what inspired you to become such?
34466Are n''t you a bit young to travel this path with only a dog as companion?
34466As a novice of the Augustinian Order?
34466Back so soon?
34466Caesar, too?
34466Can you fear when mere children can not? 34466 Did you even hear me?"
34466Do travelers use the Pass all winter?
34466Do you know this man, Franz?
34466Do you know what I really thought the day I expelled you from my school?
34466Down?
34466Emil Gottschalk?
34466For me?
34466Have the travelers come up?
34466Have you never before seen snow fall?
34466He is a wise man?
34466How does he do it?
34466How long will you be there?
34466How-- how shall we prepare him for the journey?
34466Is Jean badly hurt?
34466Is he a spit dog, too?
34466Is he there, Caesar?
34466Is he there?
34466Is there anything you are meant to be? 34466 May a chopper of wood be a future family man of Dornblatt, where everyone chops his own?"
34466Me? 34466 See?
34466So I am to be your guest?
34466So you did nothing?
34466So you sense the storm coming, too?
34466Well?
34466What does_ maronnier_ mean?
34466What is it like?
34466What now?
34466What route do you intend to follow?
34466What time did you leave your father?
34466Where are the cattle?
34466Who was the message from?
34466Who was the messenger?
34466Why do you ask that?
34466Why do you stay here, Anton?
34466Why not?
34466Will he go now?
34466Will you come in and have some bread and cheese?
34466With a crucifix alone?
34466With me?
34466Would Paul not feed you?
34466You found him here?
34466You know what we must do?
34466Your dog can find men buried beneath the snow?
34466Your dog work? 34466 And how could the snow be removed unless someone shoveled it away? 34466 But come now, Franz, is it not time to stop talking and start supping?
34466But what?
34466Can Caesar guide us safely from here?"
34466Can he take his proper place among the householders of Dornblatt if he knows nothing except how to cut wood, run the forests and climb mountains?
34466Did Father Benjamin know?
34466Do you want to come along?"
34466Do you want to go first?"
34466Father Benjamin put his mouth very close to Franz''s ear and shouted,"Do you still think you have chosen well?"
34466Franz asked fearfully,"What does he want, Anton?"
34466Franz asked,"Do you save everyone?"
34466Franz asked,"What is your greatest difficulty?"
34466Franz''s father asked,"How long ago was that?"
34466He had a growing fear that they were not, for who could find a path in a storm such as this?
34466His father demanded,"Have you nothing else to say?"
34466How could they see daylight if the windows of their stable were darkened by snow?
34466If I did not love the boy, would I care what happens to him?
34466If he were accepted as a_ maronnier_, might Caesar go with him?
34466It was fine to have a free day, but in St. Bernard Pass, exactly what did one do with it?
34466Just how far beyond the Widow Geiser''s were Hermann and his father when they turned back?
34466Just how far south had he been when he heard the dog bark?
34466Now she asked,"What''s the matter, Franz?"
34466Or had they gone down the slope?
34466Or shall we find any?"
34466Or were they beyond her place at all?
34466Since I can not, are you ready to have me start cleaning the stable?"
34466Surely you are clever in some ways?"
34466There were not so many unable to gather their own wood that he could keep busy throughout the winter, and what then?
34466Were either of his parents or one of his sisters lost in the snow and not found?
34466Were they beset by some terrible illness?
34466Were--?
34466What had prompted it to risk this foolhardy journey?
34466Why can not he be given due credit?"
34466Will you be so good as to go home and tell him what I have said?"
34466Wo n''t you come in for some bread and milk?"
34466Would you like that, Franz?"
34466Yah?"
36811''And is it red-- thy little mouth? 36811 ''Tell me what kind of eyes are thine?
36811A vagabond girl who herself confesses that she has been driven out wherever she went; is she worthy of your kindness?
36811Am I too heavy for you?
36811And a little rosy baby mouth?
36811And do you think those strict old gentlemen would receive a wandering maid- of- honour-- particularly on a day so solemn? 36811 And how is that?"
36811And shall we therefore withdraw from the fight like cowards?
36811And the brethren, where are they?
36811And the brethren,he groaned at length,"could they not protect him?"
36811And then, what then?
36811And then?
36811And there is no one to be seen?
36811And what colour are your eyes?
36811And what crime had he committed?
36811And why?
36811And you did not go?
36811And you do not know who the boy was that you nursed?
36811And you feel that you can nurse another child as well?
36811And you? 36811 And your eyebrows grow together, the true sign of a witch?"
36811And your father?
36811And your hair?
36811And your mother was in league with him? 36811 Are the messengers of Hell sent for him already?
36811Are you content with that?
36811Are you here, my brethren? 36811 Are you in your right senses, child?
36811Are you possessed by the Evil One that you come screaming us out of our sleep like this?
36811Are you so much in earnest?
36811Are you there? 36811 Are you turned to stone?
36811Are you vexed with me?
36811Aye-- my Sunday clothes and my cape; what does the girl want with them?
36811Be easy,said the man to his trembling wife,"am I not your plighted husband?
36811Beata, are you there?
36811Beata, do you wish me to lose it too?
36811Beata, where are you?
36811Beata,said Donatus gravely,"it is God''s will; he has delivered me into your hand as helpless as a child; will you guide me farther still?"
36811Beata,said Donatus gravely,"you share my sorrows, and shall I not share yours?
36811Beata-- have you died down in the valley, and come up to watch by me till I may follow you into eternity? 36811 Beata-- is this your obedience?"
36811Berntrudis,exclaimed Donatus sorrowfully;"was she your mother?"
36811Berntrudis-- unworthy daughter of your pious ancestress, how dare you carry on such unseemly doings?
36811Boy, where are you?
36811Brown or blue?
36811But I ask you, what is the price of the struggle? 36811 But I must not be recognised and shall mingle with the peasant girls-- do you understand?"
36811But how came you here, what were you seeking in this neighbourhood?
36811But think, what will your mother say?
36811But who taught you to say what you felt in that sweet fashion?
36811But you had wings then; why have you lost them?
36811But you, my lord, what will you do if I go to sleep? 36811 By trees?"
36811By whom?
36811Can you see the convent yet?
36811Can you still understand what is said to you, in spite of your drunkenness?
36811Chains too?
36811Child, do not be foolish; when I am dead, what then?
36811Child, what am I to call you? 36811 Confess at once, confess, are you a witch or a sorceress?"
36811Correntian-- you despise me for not doing what the scripture commands?
36811Could we not find shelter in the convent itself,said the knight,"as we did lately with the Duchess?"
36811Dear Countess-- I beg of you-- what have you taken into your head?
36811Did he fall down, has he hurt himself?
36811Did you hear it too?
36811Did you know the Lady of Reichenberg?
36811Did you never hear of the blessed maidens?
36811Did you tell him that it was Berntrudis that was ill?
36811Did your mother often speak of me?
36811Do n''t you know that-- not even that? 36811 Do not you know either where he was brought from?"
36811Do you dare, you miserable man, to doubt me, me the votary of death? 36811 Do you hear?"
36811Do you hope to propitiate me? 36811 Do you know me then?"
36811Do you know me?
36811Do you know then whither we are going?
36811Do you know this neighbourhood?
36811Do you not come from higher realms than we do?
36811Do you not perceive that she is no mortal being?
36811Do you not remember his name?
36811Do you not understand me?
36811Do you see anything?
36811Do you think I am afraid of hunger and cold? 36811 Do you think I will let you league yourself with such a being?
36811Do you think the boy could conduct me to Marienberg?
36811Do you think they will pay you for our dinner?
36811Do you want to go on again?
36811Does any danger threaten you from thence?
36811Donatus, my son, do you not know me?
36811Donatus,repeated Correntian,"miserable son, why are you come so late?
36811Donatus,screamed the horrified monk,"are things gone so far with you?"
36811For God''s sake, venerable Abbot-- there is a splendid riding party at the gate, desiring to be admitted,they called out,"What shall we do?"
36811God help me, not the Abbot?
36811God save you, my lord Abbot, I do not think you good folks here starve?
36811Good brother Wyso,said the Abbot smiling,"if it pleased the Lord to let a swarm of locusts fall upon us, should we not be obliged to submit?
36811Great God, what have I done? 36811 Had your mother committed some crime?"
36811Have you any valuables then?
36811Have you heard what threatens us?
36811Have you hurt yourself?
36811Have you met a Benedictine?
36811Heaven help us-- what evil can it bode?
36811Here, you man,said Beata quickly,"have you another smock frock?"
36811Here-- are they not going to ordain one of the monks up at the monastery to- day?
36811How are you?
36811How come you here? 36811 How comes a cloister- brother here?"
36811How did he die?
36811How do you know?
36811How long will it be before we reach Saint Gertrude''s?
36811How many are they?
36811How old is your child?
36811I ask our venerable father-- I ask all the brethren here in conclave-- Has a Benedictine a sister?
36811I ask you-- where that boy came from to you?
36811I can hear the rush of water, are we not near the Holy Wells?
36811I can not hear you, Beata, are you there?
36811I see that-- but who were you originally-- who were your parents?
36811I? 36811 If a wife makes love to her husband?
36811If it troubles you so why do you leave her?
36811In God''s name do not you hear me? 36811 In the name of all the Saints-- stay; will you leave the poor child to starve?
36811Is all your nature subverted? 36811 Is he dead?"
36811Is it a girl or a boy?
36811Is it so? 36811 Is it you, Beata?"
36811Is no one there?
36811Is that what you should think?
36811It is strange, but do not you think that the boy is like me?
36811Let me feel how tall you are?
36811Look there, is that an angel?
36811Lord, hast Thou not a drop of mercy left for me out of Thine inexhaustible fount of grace? 36811 My Lord Abbot, I am a connection of yours, do you not know me?"
36811My Lord,said Donatus,"how can you say you are my father, when you have never dealt with me as a father?
36811My brethren-- my Abbot-- where are you?
36811My lord, I am dedicated to Heaven-- I recognise no ties of blood--"And is this the doctrine in which you have brought up my child? 36811 My lord,"urged the Abbot,"you surely will not against his will--""Do you think I will entreat him any longer?
36811My son-- you can save us, will you venture on this journey?
36811No one, who should? 36811 No, my lord-- not a word; did you ever hear that a Benedictine sold the secrets of the confessional?"
36811No-- no-- I can not rest-- the Duchess, where is the Duchess?
36811No-- why should I? 36811 Of course; are you skilled in such things?"
36811Of what use would that be?
36811Oh, Oh-- what a thing is man? 36811 Or kill me, kill me, my lord, my angel, my deliverer?"
36811Poor child, when did your mother die?
36811Poor feeble mother, who has thrust thee out in this night of storm and tumult for your child to be born under the open sky?
36811She-- who?
36811So far?
36811Son of all misfortune, what are you alive for? 36811 Tell me, Count, what passed between you and the youngster that you got so angry about it?"
36811Tell me, whose child is the young monk whom you call Donatus?
36811That is a sad grievance for you, is it not, Hildegard? 36811 The Count gave you a ring?"
36811The boy-- where have you put him?
36811The boy?
36811The brethren picked me up by the wayside, and shall I not pity the forsaken? 36811 The log that I was carrying for a cross, can I leave that?"
36811Then how can you know that our roads are the same?
36811Then we are among men?
36811Then you are already seventeen summers old? 36811 Then you are an orphan?"
36811To Marienberg?
36811To- day is no saint''s day?
36811Was not that a cry from the eastern tower?
36811Well, Countess Hildegard, how do you like yourself here?
36811Were there not a couple more with you? 36811 What ails you, my son?"
36811What am I to think of you for thus disturbing the peace of this quiet hour?
36811What am I to understand by that?
36811What are you doing with that tree?
36811What are you doing, Donatus? 36811 What are you doing?"
36811What can she want up there?
36811What can we do?
36811What can you want with me?
36811What do you care whether I esteem you or not?
36811What do you mean, worthy brother Eusebius?
36811What do you mean?
36811What do you mean?
36811What do you say to such doings, Correntian?
36811What do you think, my brethren,said the Abbot turning to the others,"shall we give him up to the provost to be judged?"
36811What do you want with me?
36811What do you want, my Lord?
36811What else could I do with you that would be pleasing to the Lord?
36811What for then?
36811What good can the wanderings of a dying man do you?
36811What good would it do you? 36811 What happened to him?"
36811What has happened, what was that? 36811 What have you to do with that innocent young monk?
36811What is it-- what do you want?
36811What is that?
36811What is the matter, what has bereft you of your strength for the first time since we have been together?
36811What is the matter?
36811What is there to fear?
36811What is this strange story that our brother, the Prior, tells me? 36811 What is this woman to you?"
36811What is to be done?
36811What is your name?
36811What is yours? 36811 What shall I do?"
36811What sin?
36811What was your mother''s name?
36811What, child, do you not even know how old you are?
36811What, do you know him?
36811What, is it you, brother Eusebius?
36811What-- where did you see her?
36811What--he said,"your husband up to you?
36811When I was your age, would I have girded my hungry stomach with rough haircloth, that I might ride lighter on the road to Heaven? 36811 When the father sees the state of his son-- what will happen?"
36811Where am I going? 36811 Where am I?"
36811Where are you going all alone, Donatus?
36811Where are you going, brother Florentine? 36811 Where are your cellarers?
36811Where are your ladies, Madam?
36811Where is Donatus?
36811Where is Donatus?
36811Where is my son?
36811Where is the girl that was leading you?
36811Where to?
36811Where were you? 36811 Where-- where?"
36811Whither?
36811Who are you?
36811Who can it be? 36811 Who can tell?
36811Who could be vexed with you?
36811Who is out there at this early hour?
36811Who is there? 36811 Who taught you that song?"
36811Who would have thought of telling us, brother Florentinus, that at the end of our days we should be inspecting a wet- nurse?
36811Who?
36811Who?
36811Whom then should I have fetched? 36811 Why are you so quiet?"
36811Why did you disturb us?
36811Why do you tremble so if your conscience is clear?
36811Why had you to hide so constantly?
36811Why must we first be men if we proceed from God and are his children?
36811Why was your mother always afraid of losing you?
36811Why waste so many words?
36811Why, how should I? 36811 Why, then she is not buried?"
36811Why, where are you going?
36811Will you condescend to rest and cool yourself here for a time, noble Lady?
36811Will you give me your linen frock?
36811Will you have a little food? 36811 Will you tell me who you are?"
36811Would you like to rip my body up? 36811 Yes-- don''t you remember-- that day when they made you a priest?"
36811You are never to kiss the child-- do you hear? 36811 You are staring fixedly at that one spot; does that young fellow remind you of your own youth?"
36811You did not think of that?
36811You have never told me about him, Beata, how is that? 36811 You, the most noble lady of Reichenberg?
36811You-- yourself? 36811 Your brother is it?
36811Your rage is against the monks of Marienberg; what have they done to you?
36811Your second wife never had much joy of her treason; you repudiated her too if I remember rightly?
36811Your wife''s?
36811''"[ 4]"Beata, who taught you that song?"
36811A flood of tears burst from the nurse''s large and innocent eyes as she heard this, and she asked with white lips,"Must I go away then?"
36811A peasant- girl and that haughty maid- of- honour, how could they be alike?
36811All- merciful God, why were you so long silent?"
36811Am I not his father and did I ever give my consent to his becoming a monk?
36811Am I not smooth and fine enough for you great lords?
36811And could they withstand her prayers?
36811And even if he were to succeed in snatching this super- sensual extasy in one moment by one hasty stroke, could he bear it and support it worthily?
36811And has that snake engendered another snake that the race may not die out?
36811And how can you believe in the efficacy of a blessing, if you do not believe in the power of a curse?"
36811And is it not He whom I would seek down in the valley or up among the frozen glaciers?
36811And must he do more than they all had done, to win the crown of the Saints?
36811And what is it after all?
36811And what should I do out in the world?
36811And what to him was the accursed outcast-- the hapless wretch who could no longer give him even a blessing?
36811And will you hold him to a vow thus surreptitiously extorted from him-- will you assert your claim to stolen goods?
36811And yet how could it be?
36811Are you going out in this stormy night, and with the tender infant?"
36811Are you or are you not aware of that?"
36811Are you strong enough?"
36811At last he muttered between his teeth,"And dare you actually look me in the face-- can you bear that I should look at you?
36811Augustine speaks truly when he says,''the eyes every day cast us into all sin and crime; what has been created that is more subtle than the eye?''
36811But how could there be a gap in the walled quadrangle that formed the court- yard if it were not the doorway?
36811But if in your heart you bear such earthly longings will you be strong enough for such a sacred calling?
36811But in order to guide you I must know where you are going?
36811But is it not so?
36811But now you give to us of your abundance and teach us by your wisdom so that we are fain to ask,''Whence are you?''
36811But there is something different in you now--"she studied him attentively; suddenly she started up,"Oh-- now I know-- you have not got any eyes?"
36811But what am I to do?
36811But what was that?
36811But will you not first take a morsel to eat?
36811But would that which had cured him work a cure in another?
36811Can I shut my eyes?"
36811Can he ever find it in his heart to turn her out, a wanderer on the earth?
36811Can you be so cruel?"
36811Can you repel your real father for the sake of a stranger who did not beget you?"
36811Correntian pushed her wildly from him,"His nurse-- is she there in spite of our prohibition?
36811Could he leave the blind man alone for so long?
36811Could it reach the Throne of God?
36811Could those arms reach him in the midst of all this wealth of mercies?
36811Count Reichenberg, what are you making this noise about?"
36811Dark eyes, or light ones rather?''
36811Did I not obey Thy will in so far as I understood it?
36811Did he shake his head?
36811Did you linger in the nether world that the days hastened by uncounted?
36811Did you never ask your mother Berntrudis?"
36811Do you call the physician cruel who by one swift cut obviates future-- nay eternal suffering?
36811Do you suppose that I-- the Count of Reichenberg-- can be sent home like a blockhead, with such an answer as that?
36811Do you think He would be indeed Christ if He thought this?
36811Do you think we are going to spend the whole night arguing with you as to whether or no you will do the Abbot''s bidding?"
36811Do you think you can befool me with the honeyed slaver of your lips as you have the weaker brethren?
36811Do you understand?
36811Do your wet clothes hinder you, or are you ill?"
36811Donatus pondered on the marvel for a while,"Suppose it were a demon?"
36811Donatus stood still;"What was there?
36811Donatus wrung his hands,"What can I do?
36811Donatus, tell me, have I been your salvation or your ruin?"
36811For what hope of reward could he do this?
36811God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?"
36811Hark-- what was that?
36811Has not the Almighty let many a cloister perish for all that it seemed a pity?
36811Have I guessed rightly?"
36811Have we come to such a pass that we shall shut ourselves up in convent walls to pray and stuff in idle piety?
36811Have you any fancy to defy pope and bishop, church- law and interdict for the sake of this infant?
36811He had never believed in fairies, but could there be such beings?
36811He had not been able even to ask her the simple question,"Mother, where do you live and where can I find you?"
36811He loathed himself; could God take delight in such a miserable cripple?
36811He rose and solemnly lifted his hand,"Beata would you win everlasting bliss?"
36811He shrunk in horror of himself; was he still capable of such emotion-- he, the blind man, the ascetic, cut off from life and its joys?
36811He threw his arm round the girl''s buxom form and whispered,"And if I ask you where you went so early, what will you say then?"
36811He will call out-- does no one hear him?
36811Her flashing eyes seemed to ask:"Where is there one fairer than I?"
36811His sense of touch perhaps betrays him-- or some demon is tricking him, and juggling with his senses to torment him?
36811Holy Father, what have you done?"
36811How can you talk to me and chide me for loving them and calling them father, when I have never known any other father?"
36811How come you here this wild night-- and what have we here for a whimpering visitor?"
36811How has this happened?"
36811How high will this take me?"
36811How long have we Marienbergers been afraid of the Devil?
36811How many summers old are you then?"
36811I am a poor, useless creature, I come and pass away like a wild heath- flower, no one asking whence came you or why do you bloom?"
36811I ask you to be my father confessor because you are the only one who does not love me, the only one who has no pity on me; now do you understand?
36811I forgave her on her death- bed, and how could I be cruel to you?
36811I have called you all together to take counsel with you as to whether we shall take him in or cast him out on the wild ocean of life?"
36811I shall never see him again?
36811I-- the homeless, the vagabond?
36811If they will not follow they may be damned, what do I care?''
36811Is he delirious?
36811Is it not yet day?"
36811Is no one here?"
36811Is not God everywhere-- over there as well as here?
36811Is the impenetrable darkness that shrouds me not too sacred for your suspicions to spot it?
36811Is this house to be the abode of love making and shameful doings?"
36811It is standing here by the fire-- or shall I make you a drink of warming herbs?"
36811It is strange, who can have emptied it?
36811It seemed as though he were waiting for something; and yet what should he be waiting for?
36811Married only nine months since, if we were rightly informed?
36811Minute after minute passed, louder and faster beat the father''s heart-- more and more shrank the terrified souls of the monks--"How will it end?"
36811Must I not long to be out there in the blue distance?
36811Must not the plain below tempt me down there, down to the delicious verdure which affords nourishment and refreshment to all?
36811Must not those solitary heights tempt me up to the everlasting snow, so high, so near to Heaven?
36811My torture is near its end, I feel--""Oh poor soul, and must you end so miserably?"
36811No, my Lord, clever as you are, we have not gone so far as that; you may catch mice with bacon, but not Benedictines; do you understand?"
36811Now choose, which is it to be?"
36811Oh, poor soul, what will become of you?"
36811One stroke-- and it is done; a stroke so slight that a child might drive it home, a hail- stone, a thorn-- and you tremble at that?"
36811Only you never looked as gentle and sweet as he does; do not you agree with me, Count Reichenberg?"
36811Or over there, near the bed of the silver stream, out on the heath where I was born?
36811Perhaps he is still out in the sheds, and only fancies he has made his way to the refectory?
36811Pity, oh, pity-- Donatus, where is he?
36811Raised my hand against a brother; what evil spirit possesses me?
36811Repentance and grace-- what can the devil do against them?"
36811Shall I grant this gracious lady''s wish and give you to her?
36811Should he awake her?
36811Should he go back to the wood?
36811Should they call the Abbot?
36811Speak on-- what do you mean?
36811St. Benedict slept on stinging nettles when temptation approached him, and he, what should he do?
36811Suddenly one of the brethren grasped his neighbour''s arm,"Look,"he exclaimed,"up there in the eastern turret- window-- do you see a light?"
36811Tell me which way the Duchess went, and can I overtake her?"
36811Tell me who was the wonderful man that taught a wild wood- bird to sing with such sweet art?"
36811Tell me why must it be so?
36811Tell me, is that sorcery?
36811That pure, innocent and saintly man, punished for my guilt-- God of pity, how could''st Thou allow this?"
36811The Abbot could contain himself no longer; with a cry of anguish he flung himself upon Donatus;"My son, my son-- why have you done this to me?"
36811The Count cast a glance of hatred at the Abbot,"Oh, you priests, you priests; who ever got behind your tricks?"
36811The inexperienced boy stood speechless; was she in earnest?
36811The only question is this: is that still yours which you threw away of your own free will and abandoned to destruction?
36811The two men were quite content to do everything the child wished, was not her will God''s will?
36811Then again he heard the threatening voice,"Coward, what do you fear?
36811There is no one there, the tower is locked up?"
36811This is how you kept your word to us, this is what came of your vows?
36811This is the first creature to whom I have ever been able to do any good; do you know what that is?"
36811Was he indeed a thief-- had he stolen the forbidden fruit?
36811Was it a fire?
36811Was it from anxiety at the long time the child was sleeping?
36811Was it not a cry of pain from the tower?
36811Was it not a splendid dinner?"
36811Was it true that she was so submissive to his words, so self- sacrificing, so ready to repent?
36811Was it you?"
36811Was temptation in itself a sin?
36811Well, why are you staring at me like that with your martyr''s face?"
36811Were you bewitched that you did not observe that since you left more than a week is past?"
36811What are you thinking about?
36811What cheated your senses as to the time?
36811What could prompt a strange and lowly herd- boy to such a fearful sacrifice?
36811What dark secret hangs over your birth, poor child-- Who may you be?
36811What good could it do me?
36811What had happened?
36811What had he done to deserve a punishment so unspeakably horrible?
36811What has brought your weary feet up here?"
36811What has happened to her?"
36811What has put such hideous ideas into your head?"
36811What has troubled you so?
36811What have I done to you that you pour gall into the poor serf''s little drop of happiness?"
36811What have we to do here with the Almighty and the devil?
36811What have you to fear?"
36811What is Thy purpose with us?"
36811What is all that heroism and chastity have ever achieved in comparison with this deed?
36811What is the child to me that I am to sacrifice all that is dearest to me to him?
36811What is this feeling that shakes me to the very stronghold and foundation of my being?
36811What misery would he bring upon her now?
36811What power possesses you?
36811What shall we do then?"
36811What should he do now to soothe the wet- nurse?
36811What then did she live upon?"
36811What then will be your lot?
36811What were earth and heaven to her, what was God even?
36811What will become of you when our journey is ended and we must part?"
36811What?
36811When was I ever an angel?"
36811Where is your home?"
36811Where should he go?
36811Where, in the name of all the saints, did you pick it up, and what have we to do with the helpless baby?"
36811Whither should she go?
36811Whither was he going, what did he seek?
36811Whither will your youthful vehemence carry you?
36811Who does not revive after such a prospect, and hasten joyfully forward?
36811Who has been beforehand with us?"
36811Who has done it?"
36811Who is to forbid me kissing my wife-- who can force me to believe that it is a sin when husband and wife make love to each other?
36811Who or what must come?"
36811Who shall set the limits to loving kindness?
36811Who within these walls may venture to boast that anything is his own?"
36811Who would dare suppose he could prevent a tree from budding and sprouting in February?
36811Who-- by the laws of the world-- who takes its father''s place, brother Wyso?"
36811Why did his heart throb so violently?
36811Why did you not come, where were you waiting so long?"
36811Why in the world can he never sleep?"
36811Why is that a sin for us which is permitted to all the rest of mankind?"
36811Why may I not depart at once and be with the Father, for whom my soul pants?"
36811Why must we love nothing but God?
36811Why should I believe you-- how have you kept your word to me?
36811Why was I born out on the heath, who was my mother, and what crime had she committed that my father should cast her out?"
36811Why, have I not forbidden you to kiss the boy?
36811Will you speak with him?"
36811Will you?"
36811Would God hearken still to the prayer of the accursed?
36811Would his next step even fall on the firm earth; might he not lose his footing in space or fall over some obstacle?
36811Would the idea that rules the world damp this fire also?
36811Would you like to hear it?"
36811Would you prevent God''s grace and pronounce your own damnation when He in His eternal and fatherly mercies would most likely pardon you?
36811You are concealing some evil from me?"
36811You are pale and your hair is wet with night dews?"
36811You have been with me all the time, you have brought me food, have been by my side through snow and frost, in death and desolation?
36811You liars and hypocrites-- do you not tremble before me?"
36811You mock me, do you?
36811You will grant a dispensation this day in our honour, my Lord Abbot, will you not?"
36811a week?"
36811and were they good or evil spirits?
36811and why?"
36811are you a man?"
36811brother-- why may I not die at once?
36811can not a drop of holy water mixed with the tears of true repentance extinguish the very fires of hell?
36811can you not come with us?"
36811could he win this with one stroke, without any inward vocation or natural ripeness for it?
36811could you so deceive me?"
36811did you ever see a tree escape the lightning because its fruit was good?
36811eternal Justice, where art Thou that this should happen?"
36811for shame-- what have I eaten?"
36811had the lightning struck it?
36811he cried, with a choked utterance,"Donatus, my son-- where is he?"
36811he shouted above the tumult,"if indeed you are my father, will you kill your own son?
36811how do you like them?"
36811interrupted the Count,"I believe nothing-- I know.--Do you understand?
36811is it not enough?
36811is that what you mean?"
36811lay aside the dress of my order?"
36811must another day be wasted without our being any nearer to the goal?"
36811must you follow me wherever I go?"
36811my Lord Abbot, what sort of monks have we here that turn the heads of all the ladies, old and young?"
36811oh God what will become of her?
36811or does his blindness cheat him with false ideas of space?
36811or which of them we may least offend?
36811said he,"are you quite grown up?"
36811should they let him know?
36811shrieked the Count,"are you in your senses?"
36811the Order was forbidden to receive as members children under years of discretion without the express consent of their parents?
36811what are you saying?
36811what had frightened the pair so much?"
36811what is that smell?"
36811what spirit is this that speaks in you?
36811what was he like?"
36811what was sacred, what was sure?
36811what was that?
36811where wert Thou that such things could be done?
36811who put them into your head?"
36811will the measure of my sorrows never be full?"
36811will you spurn the salvation that I offer you?
36811you say so?"
36811you would not drive away a lost dog that humbly licked your hand, and have you no pity on my suffering and my tears?"
36811you?"
36811your gaze has a purifying power; look at me, look me in the face and see if I can lie?"
35229About what? 35229 Ah, he is dead, then?"
35229Ah, indeed, is that why?
35229Ah, indeed?
35229Ah, indeed?
35229Ah, was that the reason?
35229Alice, are you bereft of your senses?
35229Alice, are you rested?
35229All right again? 35229 Always?"
35229Am I to take you to supper, as Fräulein von Thurgau tells me? 35229 And Alice is free?"
35229And Alice is well, I hope?
35229And Alice?
35229And are they found,--these proofs of yours?
35229And could you have loved a man who had risen thus?
35229And do you not need your country?
35229And has she grown to be a grand lady too?
35229And how does that concern us?
35229And how have you thriven in the mean while? 35229 And if I do not accept this condition?"
35229And if I do you no credit in your betrothed''s society, it is your own fault: why do you take me there like a lamb led to the slaughter? 35229 And if this triumph should cost you your life?
35229And if, notwithstanding all this, I do not accept it?
35229And in all these ten years have you never been homesick?
35229And so suddenly? 35229 And the engineer- in- chief told you this?"
35229And the father?
35229And then you go-- forever?
35229And this is the precious tale you mean to relate to the world?
35229And this love does not probably date from to- day or from yesterday? 35229 And went without you?"
35229And what am I, then, in your eyes?
35229And what passed between you?
35229And why not?
35229And why not?
35229And why? 35229 And yet you are a German?
35229And you expected me to approve them and put my name to them?
35229And you had patients here in the village who were very ill at the time?
35229And you have known him for years without ever mentioning his name to me?
35229And you intend to remain?
35229And you suppose it can be easily got rid of? 35229 And you think Fräulein von Thurgau is agreed?"
35229And you?
35229And you?
35229Are there ladies coming?
35229Are they coming?
35229Are you a little glad when I come?
35229Are you afraid of a few rain- drops, Uncle Nordheim?
35229Are you afraid of me? 35229 Are you afraid, Fräulein Nordheim?"
35229Are you going to betray my confidence? 35229 Are you so afraid of me?
35229Are you so wonderfully gifted with insight, Herr Waltenberg?
35229Are you, then, so fettered?
35229As my secretary?
35229At Oberstein? 35229 At sixteen?
35229Back already, Herr Elmhorst? 35229 Beg pardon?"
35229Beg pardon?
35229Benno?--Molly? 35229 But do you not see, Erna, that we have a visitor?
35229But how indeed should you know anything of honest, unselfish friendship? 35229 But if I entreat?"
35229But they are working away desperately; can it be entirely in vain?
35229But why? 35229 But why?"
35229But, Wolf, what is the matter with you? 35229 But, my boy,--my little girl, what are you thinking of?"
35229Can you be quite sure of your wife?
35229Can you compel my esteem?
35229Can you really attach such importance to words which were the result of anger,--of the agitation preceding a sudden death?
35229Can you really endure this close, stifling temperature, Alice?
35229Can you really treat his messenger thus harshly?
35229Can you suppose me capable of sordid calculation?
35229Can you suppose me to have any share in his plan?
35229Certainly; what is it?
35229Climb the Wolkenstein peak? 35229 Could you entertain such a doubt?"
35229Could you have stood beside him in toil and danger, perhaps in defeat? 35229 Darling Molly, have you no confidence in me?
35229Did I not keep my promise?
35229Did the doctor speak to you about it?
35229Did you really remember it in all the confusion of the day?
35229Do you actually believe that the assertion of an adventurer like yourself could ruin a man of my standing? 35229 Do you agree to this, Fräulein Nordheim?"
35229Do you consider that as a matter of course, Fräulein von Thurgau?
35229Do you fancy I am in jest?
35229Do you imagine I care a button for judgments that outrage all justice, and which your company procured God only knows by what rascality? 35229 Do you imagine I fear to be stung?
35229Do you imagine, then, that Wolfgang cares for me? 35229 Do you not hear me?"
35229Do you really allow yourself to be governed by others in such matters?
35229Do you really drive up the mountains to the secluded cottages scattered here and there?
35229Do you really suspect the president of it?
35229Do you remember that evening when I yielded to your request? 35229 Do you set such a value on that?"
35229Do you suppose a woman can not feel when she is loved, even though every means be resorted to to conceal it from her?
35229Do you suppose that Herr Waltenberg and yourself are the only mountaineers? 35229 Do you suppose that I could have borne to know him happy in your arms?"
35229Do you think me so wanting in energy as to be unable to preserve my independence?
35229Do you think so? 35229 Do you want me to present you to the ladies in that coat?"
35229Does the mountain- sprite guard her throne so jealously?
35229Dr. Reinsfeld is a friend of yours?
35229Dreaded?
35229Ernst Waltenberg-- to me?
35229Ernst,she said, gently,"why torment yourself thus perpetually?
35229Even here?
35229Even if it be offered to me from such motives?
35229Falsified? 35229 Farewell?
35229Fräulein Nordheim,--will you allow me?
35229Fräulein Nordheim-- would you?
35229Griff? 35229 Had he a gift that way?"
35229Has anything happened? 35229 Have I fallen among savages?"
35229Have I startled you, sir, by my unexpected arrival?
35229Have you no idea of the meaning of the affair? 35229 Have you no other name for me?
35229Have you really any hope?
35229Herr Councillor, will you kindly appoint an hour when I can call upon you, either to- morrow or the day after?
35229Herr Elmhorst?
35229Herr Waltenberg, may I request you to escort my niece to supper?
35229How are you to- day, Alice?
35229How can you talk of such prosaic things when our love is at stake? 35229 How can you use the word in view of such misery?"
35229How could it be? 35229 How did you come here?
35229How does it concern us?
35229How under heaven could we ever reconcile ourselves to the dull existence led here? 35229 I am aware of that,--entirely aware of my responsibility in the matter, and therefore I wish to put a question to you: Who made these estimates?"
35229I did, it is true, propose to pay my granduncle a visit, but as he is just married----"What?
35229I do,--or do you count yourself among them?
35229I hope I do not interrupt you, Herr Elmhorst?
35229I noticed nothing whatever unusual upon my arrival; what have you to tell me?
35229I ought to,said Albert, smiling in spite of himself;"but who could find fault with you, you wayward little sprite?"
35229I should have thought you would find it easy to liberate yourself?
35229I should like to know how my granduncle behaved; if he longed to dance all day long as I do?
35229I think you see these rooms fully lighted to- night for the first time, Herr Elmhorst? 35229 I thought you were to be in Oberstein this evening, Herr Elmhorst?"
35229I trust the Baroness was not alone?
35229I wonder where Herr Waltenberg is?
35229I? 35229 I?"
35229I?
35229I?
35229I?
35229In hatred?
35229In love?
35229In_ all_? 35229 Inaccessible do you call the Wolkenstein?"
35229Indeed, Fräulein von Thurgau?
35229Indeed, Herr Elmhorst? 35229 Indeed?
35229Indeed? 35229 Indeed?
35229Indeed? 35229 Indeed?"
35229Indeed?
35229Indeed?
35229Is Dr. Reinsfeld with you?
35229Is he here?
35229Is it possible that it escaped you?
35229Is that your opinion?
35229Is the poor doctor never to have any pleasure? 35229 Is your departure so near at hand?"
35229It was a magnificent sight, was it not?
35229Liberate myself,--from what?
35229Loftier than the honour that attaches to the creation of a great work?
35229Look at this fellow, Fräulein Nordheim,Reinsfeld went on;"he does not look as if, eight months ago, he lay very nearly dying, does he?
35229Madame,he began, with hesitation,"pray pardon me that, upon your unexpected arrival-- I was very sorry for it, very sorry----""For my arrival?"
35229Marrying for money, then? 35229 May recover?"
35229Mister Gronau, what ails the master?
35229Must life perforce be labour? 35229 Must you take it so seriously,--even now?"
35229My father?
35229My guest? 35229 My pride,--where has it gone?"
35229My profession?
35229My uncle spoke of it to you? 35229 No time for an affair of honour?"
35229Nonsense, do you call it?
35229Not? 35229 Nothing can sever our friendship; we must always be what we have always been to each other,--eh?"
35229Now? 35229 Now?
35229Of course you are sure to be right, Wolf; but why not rather pluck down yonder sun from the sky? 35229 Of course, Fräulein Erna; are you all well?"
35229Oh, no, assuredly not,poor Benno hastened to reply;"but I----""Well, you, Herr Doctor?"
35229Ought that alone to be decisive? 35229 Paid whom?
35229Parting?
35229Pleasures?
35229Really always? 35229 Reinsfeld-- loves you?"
35229Saw him again? 35229 Scoundrelly trick?"
35229Since when have you been superstitious?
35229So shortly after your betrothal?
35229Taken cold on this summer evening? 35229 Tell me why your father, who was loyalty itself to his friends, should have broken with the one who was nearest to him?
35229That means that you make it a condition?
35229The Herr Doctor practises among the peasantry, if I understand aright?
35229The dog is not cross, I hope?
35229The engineer- in- chief? 35229 The engineer- in- chief?"
35229The old Baron-- married?
35229The only happiness?
35229The president? 35229 The president?"
35229Then the man was unworthy of you?
35229Thunder and lightning, what sort of a household have you got here, Nordheim? 35229 Upon whom?"
35229Upon your property? 35229 Was I not right, Wolf?
35229Was your stay in the East a long one, Herr Waltenberg?
35229We shall see you this evening, Herr Elmhorst?
35229We?
35229Well, Benno, are you receiving the homage of the assembled populace?
35229Well, Ernst, are you beginning to be at home among us?
35229Well, Herr Superintendent, you are at your post already? 35229 Well, how are you, Herr Baron?"
35229Well, how is all going on outside?
35229Well? 35229 Well?"
35229What answer to make?
35229What are you thinking of?
35229What do I care for laws and injunctions?
35229What do you know about it?
35229What do you know about it?
35229What do you mean?
35229What does it all mean?
35229What does this mean, Molly?
35229What does this mean?
35229What has become of him? 35229 What has your granduncle to do with it?"
35229What have you there?
35229What is Baron Thurgau thinking of, to let his daughter grow up so? 35229 What is it that you have done?"
35229What is the matter with Griff?
35229What is the matter with the girl?
35229What is the matter, Molly?
35229What of it?
35229What other language could be used if I should sanction estimates which I know to be false?
35229What would have become of you in the rain- spout to which we were exposed just now? 35229 What would not be proper?
35229What, Erna, you? 35229 What, always?"
35229What, in fact, is this Dr. Reinsfeld to me? 35229 What-- what do you mean?"
35229What? 35229 What?"
35229When? 35229 Where are your father''s old papers,--his drawings and sketches?
35229Where are your proofs?
35229Where did you leave him? 35229 Which will place me completely in your power?
35229Who? 35229 Who?
35229Why conjure up such fancies?
35229Why did you not put on your dress- coat, at least?
35229Why do you avoid the frank explanation which I have so often tried to give you? 35229 Why does one undertake any adventure?
35229Why from_ me_?
35229Why not? 35229 Why not?
35229Why rake up the old forgotten quarrel? 35229 Why should you not make it?"
35229Why torture me with such looks and tones?
35229Why, Molly, is this you?
35229Why, what would you have had me do?
35229With Fräulein Erna?
35229With loss? 35229 With me?"
35229Without Herr Waltenberg? 35229 Wolf, must I pay this visit?"
35229Wolf,said Benno, with a searching, anxious glance at his friend''s face,"did you sleep at all last night?"
35229Would it not be better that we should all go up together?
35229You are Herr Waltenberg''s secretary?
35229You are afraid-- of me?
35229You are coming to us, Herr Doctor, are you not?
35229You are free, Erna?
35229You are going back immediately?
35229You are going? 35229 You are going?"
35229You are here on the upper stretch?
35229You come directly from Oberstein?
35229You dare to use such language to me?
35229You do not believe in Wolfgang''s love?
35229You have but lately come from Persia?
35229You have heard that my uncle is dead?
35229You have no hope?
35229You have not told me your opinion of Alice?
35229You heard what we said?
35229You here yet, Gronau?
35229You here, Erna? 35229 You here?"
35229You knew of----"Of your little one? 35229 You said that to a stranger whom you had met for the first time?"
35229You will not persist?
35229You will not? 35229 You would not have been permitted?"
35229Your parents have given their consent?
35229Your passionate surveillance torments me; how will it be when we are married?
35229''sits the wind in that corner?''
35229A fortune- hunter?"
35229A handsome girl, is she not?"
35229After all these years, who remembers it?
35229After the terrible night that you have passed?"
35229Albert put his arm around her caressingly, as he said, tenderly,"And were you really unhappy, my little Molly?
35229Albert, what can you mean by such words?"
35229All at once the president''s step was heard in the next room, and his voice said,"Herr Waltenberg''s secretary?
35229All that one hears is,''Does this please you, my dear Alice?''
35229All the pride of her nature was in revolt as she replied,"I know my uncle puts a price upon everything, and why not upon my hand?
35229Am I nothing of myself any longer?"
35229Am I still such a stranger to you that you can not, for once at least, let me hear you call me Ernst?
35229And before his departure?"
35229And how are you all here?
35229And what do you suppose Nordheim will say to your romance?"
35229And what does he know about it?"
35229And what then?"
35229And why did she tremble so as he helped her out of the carriage, seeming afraid to look at him?
35229And why not, may I ask?"
35229Anything the matter with the railway?"
35229Are you never going to cease wandering to and fro on the earth and try sitting beside your own hearthstone?"
35229Are you not going to speak to Alice?"
35229Are you speaking of the engineer Benno Reinsfeld?"
35229Are you touched there?"
35229As she referred to it Benno coloured slightly:"Do you really remember that remark of his?
35229As soon as the door closed behind him he asked, hastily, and evidently disturbed,"What has happened?
35229At this season?
35229Because I take the helm into my own hands thus early?
35229Because of that old nurse''s tale?
35229Benno exclaimed, impatiently; but Veit tapped him cordially on the shoulder:"Why did you not tell me this?
35229Benno started at the sound of her voice, and paused in surprise:"You here, Fräulein Nordheim, and entirely alone?"
35229Benno, after waiting in vain for Alice to break the silence, said, gently,--"And you really wished to come hither, Fräulein Nordheim,--really?"
35229Benno, can it be-- what?
35229But I fear Fräulein Nordheim is ill?"
35229But what availed such knowledge?
35229But what can you know of the devotion a man feels for his inheritance?
35229But what is the matter with him?
35229But what is the matter with you?
35229But where has Wolfgang gone?
35229But why did you not let us know you had arrived, so that you might have come in the train with us?"
35229But why do you ask?"
35229But why?
35229But you know all the story of my love and woe; what do you think of the future Frau Gersdorf?"
35229Can love be forced?"
35229Can you answer it to your conscience?"
35229Can you answer these questions?"
35229Can you deny that it is so?"
35229Can you never forget him, Erna?"
35229Can you not remember some expression, some hint, that would give you a clue to it?"
35229Can you suggest a remedy?"
35229Come, Erna, why do you stand there so silent?
35229Consider, Benno, do you really know nothing of the cause of the estrangement of which you have told me?"
35229Could she not overcome herself?
35229Did you know him before?"
35229Did you prevail on Frau von Lasberg----?"
35229Do you believe in it, Alice?"
35229Do you doubt it?"
35229Do you hear, Erna?"
35229Do you imagine I shall require my Alice to remain unmarried because she is my only daughter?"
35229Do you imagine that you can with impunity pledge yourself to a man like my uncle?
35229Do you intend making an excursion?"
35229Do you look for happiness at his side?"
35229Do you love Fräulein von Thurgau?"
35229Do you love another?"
35229Do you not believe me?"
35229Do you not know your Erna?"
35229Do you not wish for it?"
35229Do you recognize him?"
35229Do you seriously doubt my love?"
35229Do you share it, Herr Doctor?"
35229Do you suppose I am going to leave my house and home to make way for your locomotives?
35229Do you suppose I enjoyed leaving the wayward little creature?
35229Do you suppose that I can ever call by the name of father a man who so injured my father?
35229Do you suppose that I intend to withdraw from this undertaking with loss?"
35229Do you suppose that she was influenced by any romantic ideas in her betrothal, or that they have any weight with Wolfgang?"
35229Do you suppose you can dictate to me?
35229Do you think I do not know whose hand it was that snatched me from a terrible death yesterday?
35229Do you think it would be worth the trouble?"
35229Do you think you are equal to it, Molly?"
35229Do you understand a word I say, boy?"
35229Do you understand?"
35229Do you wish to drive us to despair and death?
35229Does she not look exquisitely lovely?"
35229Does this explanation content you?"
35229Does your memory play you false there also?"
35229Driving in this cold rainy weather?
35229Elmhorst also rose, but lingered a moment;"May I make a request?"
35229Elmhorst frowned darkly, as he rejoined,"Has he told_ you_ of all that?
35229Elmhorst shrugged his shoulders:"Is this a challenge?"
35229Elmhorst started and looked at her with an expression of dismay,--nay, of positive terror:"You-- know?"
35229Elmhorst was startled, and gazed at the doctor half incredulously:"What does this mean?
35229Engineers and workmen crowded around with faces of dismay, a whisper ran from lip to lip,"The president?
35229Erna had grown very pale in the certainty of what she had long suspected:"You challenged him?
35229Erna laid her hand caressingly upon the dog''s head, and he was instantly silent; then she asked,"Why do you hate Ernst Waltenberg?"
35229Erna said, with evident significance,"You are probably not aware that my uncle arrived this forenoon?"
35229Erna shivered; the light in her eyes faded, as she replied, coldly,"What need to ask?
35229Erna shuddered at his strange, significant words:"Wait-- for what?
35229Ernst shrugged his shoulders indifferently:"I suppose so; but what is that in comparison with the tremendous loss sustained by the railway?
35229Far from here?"
35229For what reason?"
35229Forever?
35229Frau von Lasberg was indignant; she suspected some folly of Molly''s, that_ enfant terrible_:"And they have left Fräulein Nordheim alone?"
35229Fräulein von Thurgau, will you kindly go first and prepare his daughter, that the shock may not be too great?
35229Gronau looked at him, surprised:"To Oberstein?
35229Gronau''s lip quivered with a contemptuous smile:"Ah, you are ready to barter, then?"
35229Has Benno anything to do with them?"
35229Has he no manners at all?"
35229Have I no power to make you calmer and happier?"
35229Have I not begged you to take charge of my betrothed''s health?"
35229Have you a message from him?
35229Have you been there long?
35229Have you heard anything of what has been said?"
35229Have you known him long?"
35229Have you really consented to such a period of probation?"
35229Have you recovered from your alarm, Erna?"
35229Have you, then, been fettered in chains in my house, where you were received as a daughter?
35229He directed a keen glance towards the stranger, and, motioning to him to be seated, he went on:"I suppose we shall not see him to- day?
35229He dropped her hand suddenly:"And why not?"
35229He had just shown her a rarely beautiful specimen of coral, and as he replaced it he said,"Have you been at all interested?
35229He seemed engaged in a mental conflict for a minute or two, and then he asked, in a low tone,"What is your price?"
35229He understood this''even now?''
35229Her husband burst out laughing:"The young fellow?
35229Herr Waltenberg sends you to----?"
35229His dark face grew pale on a sudden, and there was something like a menace in the tone in which he said,"Erna, why have you avoided me hitherto?
35229His look grew dark:"Ah, indeed?
35229His young wife looked up at him through her tears, and nestled close to him:"When were you coming back?"
35229How are you, old fellow?
35229How can you endure such an existence?"
35229How could she confess to another that which she shrank from acknowledging even to herself?
35229How could you bear my scolding so patiently?
35229How does Alice bear it?"
35229How does the management know of the existence of a Dr. Reinsfeld in Oberstein?"
35229How have you managed it?"
35229I am sure Benno will make room for us; will you not, Benno?"
35229I beg you----"He got no further, for his wife confronted him with an indignant air:"''Poor,''do you call him, because he is to be married?
35229I have only one question to ask you: Are you going to afford-- Dr. Reinsfeld the satisfaction required of you?"
35229I hear he has another medical position in prospect in-- what is the name of the place?"
35229I hope nothing serious?"
35229I hope we are to have dancing at your ball?"
35229I may tell him of your betrothal?"
35229I only stayed behind----""Because you are tired?"
35229I shall hope to see you at our villa; you will not forgot to come?"
35229I suppose Fräulein von Thurgau is there too?"
35229I suppose his inventive genius never brought him wealth?"
35229I suppose it is not worth the trouble to talk with them?"
35229I suppose the fine fellow was in a terrible fright when the storm came up?"
35229I suppose you confine your practice entirely to your family now?"
35229I suppose you know nothing of that?"
35229I think Herr Waltenberg attached another significance to your words; and was he not justified in so doing?"
35229I will refuse you no answer, no confession, that you ask for: only tell me, have you spoken with Wolfgang Elmhorst since that day?"
35229I wonder if he will marry again?
35229I wonder whether_ she_ is laughing too?"
35229I?"
35229If Erna should marry----""Mar-- ry?"
35229If he has given it out for his own----""In heaven''s name, you would not call----""The highly- respected president a scoundrel?
35229In fact, Sepp made his appearance on the other side of the road, but he was alone, and the haste of his approach boded ill."What is the matter?"
35229In the antechamber he asked, timidly,"Wolf-- did it go off so very badly?"
35229Is it because your own is unhappy?
35229Is not that enough for you?"
35229Is your engineer not coming to- day?"
35229It is settled that you are to be married in a year, is it not?"
35229Let me ask once for all, calmly and briefly, who furnished the figures upon which the estimates you sent me are based?"
35229Marriage?"
35229May I beg you to carry my warm remembrances to my cousin Reinsfeld?"
35229May I entreat the ladies to honour me with a visit,--with yourself, of course, Herr Elmhorst?
35229May I present my betrothed to him?"
35229May I tell him that my suit has found favour in your eyes?
35229May I trouble you, Herr Waltenberg?"
35229Meanwhile, Waltenberg stayed with his betrothed, who asked him,"You spoke with Gronau, then?"
35229Must I always be assailed by these hints as to Nordheim''s wealth, as if my importance were entirely due to my betrothal?
35229Nerves?"
35229Neuenfeld is far enough away, and he can live there comfortably to the end of his days.--What is it?
35229Nevertheless may I speak-- may I ask of you what it has long been in my heart to entreat?"
35229No recurrence of the last attack?"
35229Nordheim himself?
35229Nordheim looked at him in surprise:"You do not bring me a message from him?"
35229Nordheim turned upon him hastily:"Whom did you say?"
35229Nordheim''s uncertain glance sought first the bridge, and then the station, where a number of men were busy:"What are they doing there?
35229Nordheim?"
35229Not this attempt at blackmail, I trust?
35229Now that they were alone, he hurried towards her with outstretched arms:"And you really came, Molly?"
35229Now, before my uncle has been laid to rest?"
35229Of what importance is the opinion of a stranger?
35229Only Wolfgang Elmhorst and nothing more?
35229Probably your profession kept you away thus long?"
35229Reinsf----eld looked amazed:"Fräulein Nordheim?"
35229Reinsfeld looked at him in surprise:"What do you mean, Wolf?
35229Shall we not see you in the course of a day or two?"
35229She is now, I hear, in Heilborn,--may I be permitted to inquire personally after her health?"
35229She looked up at him in dismay:"Herr Waltenberg, you would not----?"
35229She made no reply, but there was reproach in her eyes; at last she said, with hesitation,"And--- what now?"
35229So the president was one of your playmates?"
35229So this was the stranger whom you met?"
35229So you wish me to speak with the superintendent himself; shall I find him at his usual hotel?"
35229Surely you have not quarrelled?"
35229That was the meaning of your interview?"
35229The daring, reckless tone had vanished from his voice; it sounded low, but infinitely tender, as he rejoined,"_ You_ entreat me?"
35229The doctor''s amazement was inexpressible:"Parted?
35229The gentle man slipped on the rocks, and his foot----""There are no bones broken?"
35229The president calmly reached for the bell- rope:"Will you leave the house, Herr Gronau, or must I call the servants?
35229The president of your company?"
35229The president turned and looked searchingly at his niece:"What does that mean?
35229Therefore, what do you ask?"
35229They are very fine, are they not?"
35229To the South Sea or the North Pole?
35229We are not intruding?"
35229We are quite alone here?"
35229We could not endure him, could we, Griff?
35229We know better, eh, Erna?
35229Well, Benno, are you not glad we stopped?"
35229Well, then.--But will you not be seated?"
35229Were you really as annoyed by it as he thinks you were?"
35229What I want to know is, whose were those memoranda?--who put down the sums which are the basis of the estimates?
35229What am I in them?"
35229What are we to do if papa and mamma persist in saying no?"
35229What brings you here so unexpectedly?"
35229What can you fear from me?
35229What could Gersdorf say to refute such logic as this?
35229What did he care if others observed his hopelessness?
35229What do I care for that?
35229What do you mean?"
35229What do you mean?"
35229What do you say to such an arrangement?"
35229What do you wish to be?
35229What does Herr Waltenberg say?"
35229What for?"
35229What good do you get out of your millions and your incredible successes?
35229What had you to tell me?"
35229What has happened?"
35229What is all the world to me-- what is unfettered freedom-- without you?
35229What is it?"
35229What is the affair to you?"
35229What is the matter with you, Wolf?
35229What is the name of this Oberstein Æsculapius?
35229What made him do that?"
35229What was it to him that an example of courage was expected from a man in his position?
35229What was it to him that the woman he loved was tortured and in agony, if but his savage thirst for revenge were allayed?
35229When I tell you that I have no love to bestow upon you, does not your pride stand you in stead?"
35229Where are the papers, Benno?
35229Where are you going?"
35229Where is Herr Gronau?"
35229Where is it to be?
35229Who could have been so cruel, so dastardly, as to distress you with_ that_?"
35229Who is to stand guard over the girl meanwhile and frustrate all her insane schemes?"
35229Whom have I the honour of addressing?"
35229Why did Nordheim, if he were possessed of so inventive a genius, never achieve more than one invention?
35229Why did a kind of terror possess her at the thought of ever being obliged to face the question at which he had hinted?
35229Why did she so shrink from his half- concealed declaration?
35229Why do you hesitate?"
35229Why do you not marry?"
35229Why do you refuse to return my love?
35229Why dwell upon an''if''----?"
35229Why had Alice come?
35229Why not?"
35229Why should you wish to retire from an undertaking which you practically called into existence?"
35229Why so superfluously heroic?"
35229Why?
35229Will that storm not overtake us?"
35229Will you accept both conditions?"
35229Will you listen to me, Alice?"
35229Will you not tell me what it is?"
35229Will you not try at least to comfort her?"
35229Will you undertake to send a messenger to Heilborn?"
35229Wolf, where are you?"
35229Wolfgang finished and waited for a reply, then stooped and, looking in her face, said, reproachfully,"Alice, have you nothing to say to me?"
35229Wolfgang looked her full and darkly in the face:"In other words, you detest my work and-- myself?"
35229Wolfgang turned upon him:"Why not?
35229Wolfgang turned; his face was unnaturally calm, and there was a hard ring in his voice as he said,"You come to remind me of my promise?
35229Wolfgang was surprised; he looked keenly at his future father- in- law for an instant, and then asked, hastily,"Who and what is this Waltenberg, sir?
35229Wolfgang''s attention was roused by these last words:"Probably as a member of some scientific expedition?"
35229Would not Herr Elmhorst have the carriage to drive to the station?
35229Would you expose me to a rain- storm here in the room?"
35229Would you really have been distressed had I then disobeyed you?"
35229You are having the house cleared out?"''
35229You are sure that Nordheim took out a patent for the mountain- locomotive?"
35229You consider yourself an idealist, Herr Waltenberg?"
35229You do not know----?"
35229You know that I have long cherished the desire to retire from the company as soon as the railway shall be opened?"
35229You think that is what has brought them down in the world?
35229You will stay, will you not?"
35229You wish to speak with the Freiherr?"
35229You would not be insane enough to reject him?"
35229Your diagnosis, I hear, differs from that of her former physicians?"
35229a fellow of your iron constitution?
35229among the peasants?"
35229and why did he entirely abandon engineering shortly afterwards?
35229at this moment, when death has just crossed our threshold?"
35229did I not tell you, Nordheim, that my Erna was a grand girl?"
35229do you love Alice?"
35229exclaimed Gersdorf,"you have scarcely seen poor Benno, and you are already scheming to marry him?
35229exclaimed Molly"do you consider marriage unbecoming, then, madame?"
35229or are you longing for your patrimony?
35229that man in Oberstein,--and in my house?"
35229that old difference with your father?
35229upon what ground now would you quarrel with me?
35229you dare?"
35229you do not think the bridge----?"
35229you quarrelled with him for so speaking?"
35229you still persist?
35229you too?
35229your being a guardian angel?"
