31341After dinner, the merchant, taking him into his counting- room, said,"You do not recollect me?"
31341Another question was, Whether some of the then company had not a relation that had been buried in the same vault where she lay?
31341But pray, Sir, how went this affair?
31341Had the story stopped here, what would not superstition have made of it?
31341He suddenly stopped, and demanded who she was?

31341There it happened that a couple of young females, coming to the vault, heard a noise below, crying,''_ Who the plague are ye?
31341They asked, severally, if it was their relation?
31341Upon this, one of the company asked, whether it would return again, and at what time?
31341Upon which they called out, and asked,''_ Who''s there?

31341Wherefore moan, and wherefore sigh?
31341Who is she, the poor maniac, whose wildly fix''d eyes Seem a heart overcharg''d to express?

31341fathers, who was he, so gay, That stood beside the chapel door?

31341what is it?''
35029''Are you Eve''s little girl?'' 35029 ''Well, what excuse have you,''He said,''for stealing My apples?''
35029''What are you doing?'' 35029 And have you five brothers younger than yourself?"
35029And have you five fingers on each hand and five toes on each foot?
35029And how could I tell whether somebody wanted me?
35029And how could you tell that that was a rotten branch?
35029And how old is Mrs Jugg?
35029And now I wonder,he said,"if you''d mind doing me a good turn?"
35029And what did the old man tell you?
35029And what happens then?
35029And what have these drummers lost?
35029And who are you, Mr Jugg?
35029And who''s the patron saint of water?
35029And why should you want to go back?
35029Are you still unhappy?
35029Are you?
35029As old as Mr Jugg,asked Marian,"or the little ice- men?"
35029Because of the boy?
35029But are you a_ real_ saint?
35029But do leaves remember?
35029But do n''t you think it was rough,said Cuthbert,"after I had helped to save Blossom- blossom, to have her father throwing spears at me?"
35029But how did you come here?
35029But how did you know,she asked,"that I was up the tree?"
35029But how do you know?
35029But how shall we get back?
35029But should I be able to use it?
35029But this is n''t Heaven,said Marian,"is it?"
35029But what kind of a tree is it?
35029But what were they?
35029But when did you learn to talk?
35029But where do you live?
35029But where''s he gone?
35029But where''s the dog,said Doris,"the blue china dog that used to stand on the mantelpiece?"
35029But why did you come here,said Marian--"to this wood I mean?"
35029But why do n''t you run away?
35029But why do you imagine the boy?
35029But will they see?
35029But would n''t you rather be in Heaven,she said,"than sitting about on these silly old staircases?"
35029But you''re not going to die, are you?
35029Can you give her some tea?
35029Did you know,he went on,"that everything has a sound, just as it has a shape and colour of its own?
35029Did you notice the girl''s dress?
35029Do you live near here?
35029Do you want to go there?

35029Good evening,said Mr Jugg;"what do you think of this?"
35029Have n''t you ever heard of bumpies?
35029Have you courage?
35029Have you ever heard of angels?
35029Have you ever wondered,he said,"where candles goes to-- where they goes to when they goes out?"
35029How can I? 35029 How do you do?"
35029How old are you?
35029Hullo,he said,"what''s the matter with you?"
35029I say,he said,"why should n''t we toboggan down there?
35029I see,said Marian,"but why are they called bumpies?"
35029If I tell you a story,she said,"will you let me keep it?"
35029Is he a saint?
35029Is it quite safe?
35029Is n''t it rather dark?
35029Let me see,he said:"I know where Cuthbert lives, but where do you live?"
35029May I come in?
35029May I?
35029No more,says Father Time,"or shall we say Just one?"
35029Nothing,said Mummy,"but would n''t it be wonderful if what Jacob said about this tree were true?"
35029Oh, Auntie,said Gwendolen,"ca n''t we take him back there?
35029Oh, who was he?
35029Sailor, sailor, Tell me true, What''s beyond Those waters blue?
35029Sailor, sailor, What''s the song That you sing The whole day long?
35029See that wood there,he said,"the Haunted Wood?
35029Shall I have a new name too?
35029Son of my sons,he said,"are you ready to fight with us?"
35029St Uncus?
35029The blue china dog?
35029The boy?
35029Was it a bad one?
35029Was that her name?
35029Well, what are you doing here,he asked,"climbing all alone?"
35029Well, what was it,he said,"that you wanted to ask me?"
35029Well, why do n''t you come down,he asked,"the same way that you got up?"
35029Well,he said,"what have you got to say for yourselves?"
35029What are bumpies?
35029What are relations?
35029What are you gaping at?
35029What are your names?
35029What do you know about that? 35029 What''s Hotoneeta?"
35029What''s going to happen at the end?
35029What''s the matter?
35029What''s the matter?
35029What''s the matter?
35029What''s your aunt fondest of?
35029What''s your name?
35029What''s yours?
35029Where are you now?
35029Where do you live?
35029Where do you live?
35029Where do you live?
35029Where have you been?
35029Where is it?
35029Where''s the flute?
35029Where''s the upper school?
35029Where''s your friend?
35029Where_ do_ they go to?
35029Which is your bedroom window?
35029Which way have they gone?
35029Who''s there?
35029Who''s there?
35029Why are n''t you one now?
35029Why do you go to bed in day- time?
35029Why do you want to count my eyelashes?
35029Why had you been silly?
35029Why is it up there?
35029Why should n''t he take us to Hotoneeta? 35029 Why, what have you got here?"
35029Why, what''s the matter,she cried,"with the cathedral tower?"
35029Why, whatever have you been doing?
35029Why, where''s that monkey?
35029Why, where_ have n''t_ I been?
35029Why, who are they?
35029Will you take me to it?
35029Would n''t it be better,said the stout lady,"if we went to a quieter place?"
35029You are n''t going to hurt me, are you?
35029You''re sure you''re not frightened?
35029And where were the angels?
35029But how could I make people hear what I heard?
35029But why should he settle down, he asked, so long as there was only Liz, and she could sleep in his arms as snug as snug?
35029Dared she go in?
35029Do you think he was the man who fell off the horse?"
35029Dumb is the clock with the china face, The carpet moulds on the floor; Oh, wo n''t you come down to her house with me And open Miss Hubbard''s door?
35029For what was a silly little disappointment like hers beside so dreadful a thing as becoming blind?
35029Her aunt was very angry about it when Gwendolen told her, for what was the good of making rules, she said, if you encouraged people to break them?
35029How do I know?
35029Mr Williams was still sitting down, staring moodily in front of him, when Marian asked him what was the matter, and was he angry with them for coming?
35029Oh, mother, must I let him in?
35029Or do you think they''d bring us bad luck?"
35029Said Doris''s angel,"Can they see and live?"
35029She lifted it to her lips, and it felt like a kiss; and then a Voice behind her said--"''Well?''
35029Then Doris looked round,"Where''s Christopher Mark?"
35029Then the sailor coughed, and scratched the back of his head, and said,"Beg pardon, miss, but are you ten years old?"
35029These were evidently the feathers of thousands and thousands of sea- birds; but who could have plucked them and stored them here so carefully?
35029They could see his face, still rather stern- looking, but not so stern as it had been before; and then they heard him say"Ready?"
35029What about having some tea with me?"
35029What do you say, Lancelot?
35029What do you suppose will happen when the guests have assembled?"
35029What do you suppose will happen when they have lit the candles?"
35029While they were eating, he sipped his tea and filled his pipe and went on singing: What did the gipsies do there?
35029Who were those men and women, and where did they come from?
35029Why not stay with me and learn to hear?''
35029[ went the drums], Oh, mother, must I let him in?
35029asked Doris,"and the way her hair was done, and the blue china dog on the mantelpiece?"
35029he said:"did you see the boy?"
35029he said;"are you all right?"
35029he said;"son of my sons, are you going to fight with us against these barbarians?"
35029said Doris;"but how can I?"
35029said Marian;"but is n''t that rather a bother-- I mean for you and Mrs Jugg?"
35029she cried;"how did you get those?"
29412And Bernier, our fellow- citizen, what is become of him?
29412And have you seen this master?
29412And what did she do to give you this power?
29412And what do you come here for?
29412And whence comes it that you know me?
29412Do you know that now you see nothing with the eyes of your body?
29412In a dream?
29412Now, how can he approve a dissertation false in itself and contrary to himself? 29412 Of what may we not believe the imagination capable, after so strong a proof of its power?
29412Well, then, with what eyes do you behold me?
29412When is it,he says afterwards,"that the oracles have ceased to reply throughout all Greece, but since the advent of the Saviour on earth?
29412Who art thou? 29412 [ 161] And in Ecclesiasticus,"Who will pity the enchanter that has been bitten by the serpent?
29412''I knew it well,''said she;''did I not behold it the day before yesterday?''"
29412( or"What can I do for you?")
29412A little while after, he adds,"But what shall we say of that magic they held in such admiration?
29412ARE THE VAMPIRES OR REVENANS REALLY DEAD?
29412After mass, St. Augustin, preceded by the cross, went to ask this dead man why he went out?
29412After such avowals, what can we think of the doctrine of this chief of the innovators?
29412After this, must we not own that the Greeks of to- day are not great Greeks, and that there is only ignorance and superstition among them?
29412Again, what shall we say of those tacit compacts so often mentioned by the author, and which he supposes to be real?
29412And again, how could he satisfy it with a demon, who appeared to him in the form of a girl he loved?
29412And had not their accomplices also, whose names must have been declared, as much to fear?
29412And how can we reconcile this concurrence with the wisdom, independence, and truth of God?
29412And if Samuel appeared to Saul, how could it take place if Samuel had no members?
29412And if he had received it, was he not at the same time reconciled to the church?
29412And if he was there bodily, how could he render himself invisible?
29412And if his excommunication was only regular and minor, would he deserve after his martyrdom to be excluded from the presence of the holy mysteries?
29412And if these bodies are merely phantomic, how can they suck the blood of living people?
29412And in his treatise on the soul, he exclaims,"What shall we say of magic?
29412And what glory to God, what advantage to men, could accrue from these apparitions?
29412And why do we not make any use of so wonderful an art in armies?
29412And would Jacob have asked him for his blessing had he deemed him a bad angel?
29412Another time he saw the same young man, who said to him,"Do you know me?"
29412Are the Vampires or Revenans really Dead?
29412Are there not still to be found people who are so simple, or who have so little religion, as to buy these trifles very dear?
29412Are these equivocal marks of the reality of obsessions?
29412Are they not interred?
29412As they were conversing in her presence of the singularity of the adventure which here happened at St. Maur,''Why are you so much astonished?''
29412At last they asked what was the name of him who should succeed to the Emperor Valens?
29412Besides that, of how many crimes were they not guilty in the use of their spells?
29412But are they not rather magicians, who render themselves invisible, and divert themselves in disquieting the living?
29412But can anything more strange be thought of than what is said of tacit compacts?
29412But how can they come out of their graves without opening the earth, and how re- enter them again without its appearing?
29412But if the dead know not what is passing in this world, how can they be troubled about their bodies being interred or not?
29412But what can you obtain in favor of heresy from sensible and upright people, to whom God has thus manifested the power of his church?
29412But what could it avail the demon to give the treasure to these gentlemen, who did not ask him for it, and scarcely troubled themselves about him?
29412But what is the use of so many arguments?
29412But why amuse ourselves with fruitless researches?
29412By what authority did the demon take away this boy''s life, and then restore it to him?
29412CAN A MAN WHO IS REALLY DEAD APPEAR IN HIS OWN BODY?
29412CAN THESE INSTANCES BE APPLIED TO THE HUNGARIAN GHOSTS?
29412Can a Man really Dead appear in his own Body?
29412Can an angel or a demon restore a dead man to life?
29412Can it be the spirit of the defunct, which has not yet forsaken them, or some demon, which makes their apparition in a fantastic and borrowed body?
29412Can so simple an agent as the soul act upon itself, and reproduce it in some sort by thinking, after it has ceased to think?
29412Can the soul when separated from the body re- enter it when it will, and give it new life, were it but for a quarter of an hour?
29412Can these Instances be applied to the Hungarian Revenans?
29412Can we conceive that God allows them thus to come without reason or necessity and molest their families, and even cause their death?
29412Can we not see that such an opinion is making a god of the devil?
29412DO THE EXCOMMUNICATED ROT IN THE GROUND?
29412Did he do this by his own strength, or by the permission of God?
29412Did he not wash away his fault with his blood?
29412Did not Simon the magician rise into the air by means of the devil?
29412Did not St. Paul impose silence on the Pythoness of the city of Philippi in Macedonia?
29412Did not the first- mentioned perform many wonders before Pharaoh?
29412Do the Excommunicated rot in the Earth?
29412Do they not prevent people from inhabiting certain houses, under pretence of their being haunted?
29412Do they take them and leave them at will, as we lay aside a habit or a mask?
29412Do we not know with how many errors it has been infatuated in all ages, and which, though shared in common, were not the less mistakes?
29412Do we put to death hypochondriacs, maniacs, or those who imagine themselves ill?
29412Do you laugh at all that is told of dreams, magical operations, miracles, sorcerers, ghosts, and Thessalian wonders?
29412Do you see the Prince of Condè dead in that hedge?''
29412Does any one imagine that such things can be believed without offending God, and without showing a very injurious mistrust of his almighty power?
29412Does not St. Paul complain of the_ angel of Satan_ who buffeted him?
29412Does not St. Peter[657] tell us that"the devil prowls about us like a roaring lion, always ready to devour us?"
29412Does not the apostle tell us that the angel of darkness transforms himself into an angel of light?
29412For will it be said that these maledictions and inflictions were the effect of the inspiration of the good Spirit, or the work of good angels?
29412For, does it not happen that wood of different kinds, and fish bones, produce some light when their heat is excited by putrefaction?
29412HAS THE DEMON POWER TO CAUSE ANY ONE TO DIE AND THEN TO RESTORE THE DEAD TO LIFE?
29412Had he received the sacraments of the Church?
29412Has the Demon power to kill, and then to restore to Life?
29412Has the devil in this respect a greater power than an angel and a disembodied soul?
29412Have we ever seen lethargies, or swoons, or syncopes last whole years together?
29412Have we not again calendars in which are marked the lucky and unlucky days, as has been done during a time, under the name of Egyptians?
29412He answered,--"And who has taught you that secret?"
29412How can he be absolved without asking for absolution, or its appearing that he hath requested it?
29412How can it serve the demon to maintain this, and destroy the general opinion of nations on all these things?
29412How can people be absolved who died in mortal sin, and without doing penance?
29412How can you absolve him from excommunication before he has received absolution from sin?
29412How can you absolve the dead?
29412How can you convince a whole people of error?
29412How could St. Maur appear to him in his Benedictine habit, having the wizard on his left hand?
29412How could he introduce himself into young M. de la Richardière''s chamber without either opening or forcing the door?
29412How could he render himself visible to him alone, whilst none other beheld him?
29412How could he who appeared to the tailor Bauh imprint his hand on the board which he presented to him?
29412How could this wretched shepherd cast the spell without touching the person?
29412How did Apollonius of Tyana persuade the Ephesians to kill a man, who really was only a dog?
29412How did he know that this dog, or this man, was the cause of the pestilence which afflicted Ephesus?
29412How do the saints hear our prayers?
29412How do they drag them?
29412How do they speak?
29412How is this done?
29412How is this resurrection accomplished?
29412How many enterprises, praiseworthy in appearance, has he not inspired, in order to draw the faithful into his snare?
29412How many false miracles has he not wrought?
29412How many holy actions has he not counseled?
29412How many instances have we not seen of people who expired with fright in a moment?
29412How many times has he foretold future events?
29412How was it that the soldier mentioned by Æneas Sylvius did not recognize his wife, whom he pierced with his sword, and whose ears he cut off?
29412If in all there is only falsehood and illusion, what does he gain by undeceiving people?
29412If it is not God who drags them from their graves, is it an angel?
29412If it is so, why do they return to their graves?
29412If magicians possessed the secret of thus occasioning the death of any one they pleased, where is the prince, prelate, or lord who would be safe?
29412If people insist on these resurrections being real ones, did we ever see dead persons resuscitate themselves, and by their own power?
29412If the angels even have not a certain kind of body?--for if they are incorporeal, how can they be counted?
29412If the circumstance is certain, as it appears, who shall explain the manner in which all passed or took place?
29412If these two men were only spectres, having neither flesh nor bones, how could one of them imprint a black color on the hand of this widow?
29412If they are not resuscitated by themselves, is it by the power of God that they have left their graves?
29412If they are not united to them, how can they move them, and cause them to act, walk, speak, reason, and eat?
29412If they are reprobate and condemned, what have they to do on this earth?
29412If they are united to them, then they form but one individual; and how can they separate themselves from them, after being united to them?
29412If they could thus roast them slowly to death, why not kill them at once, by throwing the waxen image in the fire?
29412If they dared not stay in the church during the mass, when were they?
29412If they were evil genii, why did they ask for masses and order restitution?
29412Is all that accomplished by the natural power of these spirits?
29412Is it an angel, is it a demon who reanimates it?
29412Is it by the order, or by the permission of God that he resuscitates?
29412Is it for a long time, like that of the persons who were restored to life by Jesus Christ?
29412Is it not certain that the first step taken by those who had recourse to magic was to renounce God and Jesus Christ, and to invoke the demon?
29412Is it not since mankind began to enjoy the divine presence of the Word?
29412Is it sepulture?
29412Is it surprising that the bedstead should be seen to move, especially when the floor of the room is waxed and rubbed?
29412Is it the Almighty, to satisfy the revenge of an insignificant woman, or the jealousy of lovers of either sex?
29412Is it to show forth the works of God in these vampires?
29412Is not that, as it appears to some, denying and affirming at the same time the same thing under different names?
29412Is this resurrection voluntary on his part, and by his own choice?
29412It is by the strength of the_ revenant_, by the return of his soul into his body?
29412It is the devil, who sports with the simplicity of men?
29412Lord, why hast thou sent me back to this gloomy abode?"
29412M. Viardin having asked him in Latin,"Ubi censebaris quandò mane oriebaris?"
29412M. de Saumaise told him it meant,"Save yourself; do you not perceive the death with which you are threatened?"
29412Might it not be advanced that this light has appeared because the eye of the count was internally affected, or because it was so externally?
29412Must we, on this account, consider these histories as problematical?
29412Nevertheless, it may be asked, How these bodies came out?
29412Of what may we not believe the imagination capable after so strong a proof of its power?
29412Or was it the natural effect of Divine love, or fervor of devotion in these persons?
29412Origen adds, What could Providence have designed in performing for this Proconnesian the miracles we have just mentioned?
29412Ought he not rather to combat this writing, and show its weakness, falsehood, and dangerous tendency?
29412Peter added,"Could you tell me any news of Alphonso, king of Arragon, who died a few years ago?"
29412St. Augustine inquires afterwards if the dead have any knowledge of what is passing in this world?
29412The Jews sometimes went so far as to insult them in their dwellings, and even to say to them,[709]_ Ubi est verbum Domini?
29412The demon added,"Is it not enough that I show thee that I understand what thou sayest?"
29412The master of the house, and his domestics, the boldest amongst them, at last asked him what he wished for, and in what they could help him?
29412The saint asked him, where was the sepulchre of the priest who had pronounced against him the sentence of excommunication?
29412The saint laughed and said to him,"Would it not be better to give the value of your horses to the poor rather than employ them in such exercises?"
29412The spectre said to him,"Where are you going?"
29412The system of M. Law, bank notes, the rage of the Rue Quinquampoix, what movements did they not cause in the kingdom?
29412The young man added,"Was it in a dream, or awake, that you saw all that?"
29412The young man then asked,"Where is your body now?"
29412Then they wished to know if alms should be given in his name?
29412They asked him if he required any masses to be said?
29412They asked why he infested that house rather than another?
29412This is certainly not the case; but if it were so, why should witches have less power than magicians?
29412Thus we read in Ecclesiasticus--"Who will pity the enchanter that is bitten by the serpent?"
29412To what can these things be attributed, if not to an elf?
29412To what persecutions were not himself and Baruch his disciple exposed for having spoken in the name of the Lord?
29412UNDER WHAT FORM HAVE GOOD ANGELS APPEARED?
29412Under what form have Good Angels appeared?
29412Was her resurrection effected by her own strength and will, or was it a demon who restored her to life?
29412Was it a demon who animated the body of the boy, or did his soul re- enter his body by the permission of God?
29412Was it by the ministration of angels, or by the artifice of the seducing spirit, who wished to inspire her with sentiments of vanity and pride?
29412Was it his soul which moved his body, or a demon which made use of this corpse to disturb and frighten the living?
29412Was it not generally believed in former times, that there were no antipodes?
29412Was it their soul which appeared to me, or was it some other spirit which assumed their form?"
29412Was this young girl really dead, or only sleeping?
29412We read, in the author I am combating,"What shall we say of the fairies, a prodigy so notorious and so common?"
29412Were they the souls of these two pagans, or two demons who assumed their form?
29412Were they whole, or in a state of decay?
29412What advantage does the devil derive from making idiots believe these things, or maintaining them in such an error?
29412What becomes, in particular, of all the stories of the holy solitaries, of St. Anthony, St. Hilarion,& c.?
29412What benefit could mankind derive from them?
29412What cures has he not operated?
29412What do they want?
29412What does it matter, in fact, that they made false boastings, and that their attempts were useless?
29412What glory does the Divinity derive from them?
29412What has not been said for and against the divining- rod of Jacques Aimar?
29412What interest could the demon have in not permitting these bodies to come under the power of the Christians?
29412What is the aim of Lucian, in his Dialogue entitled"Philopseudis,"but to turn into ridicule the magic art?
29412What is the object of these resurrections?
29412What proof is there that God has anything to do with it?
29412What reason is given for this?
29412What stronger proof of the falsity of this art can we have than to see that Nero renounced it?"
29412What will become of the apparitions of Onias to Judas Maccabeus, and of the devil to Jesus Christ himself, after his fast of forty days?
29412What will become of the apparitions of angels, so well noted in the Old and New Testaments?
29412What would you have me do for you?"
29412When did they begin to despise the magic art?
29412Whence does it happen that they neither come back nor infest the place any more when they are burned or impaled?
29412Where, also, did they go?
29412Who are these witnesses?
29412Who can have given such power to the devil?
29412Who can not perceive in these words the surest marks of prepossession and fear?
29412Who will believe in our days that Ezzelin was the son of a will- o''-the- wisp?
29412Why did he not deny all these facts?
29412Why do these excommunicated persons return to their tombs after mass?
29412Why do they attach themselves to certain spots, and certain persons, rather than to others?
29412Why do they haunt and fatigue persons who ought to be dear to them, and who have done nothing to offend them?
29412Why do they make themselves perceptible only during a certain time, and that sometimes a short space?
29412Why is it so little sought after by princes and their ministers?
29412Why then may not the heat excited in this confined spirit produce some light?
29412Why wish to explain the whole book of Job literally, and as a true history, since its beginning is only a fiction?
29412Will it be God, will it be itself?
29412Will it be said that this is only the effect of imagination, prepossession, or the trickery of a clever charlatan?
29412Will this thinking matter think on always, or only at times; and when it has ceased to think, who will make it think anew?
29412Without this fruitful source, what becomes of the most ingenious fictions of Homer?
29412Would it be again the imagination of the living and their prejudices which reassure them after these executions?
29412[ 139] Will it be said that there was any collusion between St. Paul and the Pythoness?
29412[ 160] Job, speaking of the leviathan, which we believe to be the crocodile, says,"Shall the enchanter destroy it?
29412[ 352]"Quid se præcipitat de rarissimis aut inexpertis quasi definitam ferre sententiam, cum quotidiana et continua non solvat?"
29412[ 652] Did those whom he gave up to Satan for their crimes,[653] suffer nothing bodily?
29412[ 675]"Somnia, terrores magicos, miracula, sagas, Nocturnos lemures, portentaque Thessala rides?"
29412[ 702] Numquid dæmonium potest coecorum oculos asperire?
29412[ 76]"Quamquam cur Genium Romæ, mihi fingitis unum?
29412a man or a God?
29412and also is it not what he proposed to himself in the other, entitled"The Ass,"whence Apuleius derived his"Golden Ass?"
29412and consequently, how can we know whether it ought to be punished leniently or rigorously?
29412and has not joy itself sometimes produced an equally fatal effect?
29412and if there is any truth in them, why decry his own work, and take away the credit of his subordinates and his own operations?
29412and on what foundation can it be asserted that they are less criminal?
29412and why comest thou here?"
29412and why do we ask them for their intercession?
29412how could any one make it without renouncing common sense?
29412is it a demon?
29412is it their own spirit?
29412naked, or clad in their own dress, or in the linen and bandages which had enveloped them in the tomb?
29412or that of persons resuscitated by the Prophets and Apostles?
29412or, Do you hear me?
29412that according to whether the sacred fowls had eaten or not, it was permitted or forbidden to fight?
29412that some of them die of it instantaneously, and others a short time afterwards?
29412that the statues of the gods had spoken or changed their place?
29412when will God give us some rain?"
29412whence do I come?
29412why do they not remain amongst the living?
29412why do they suck the blood of their relations?
29412why do you not rather make use of the sabres of the Turks?
29412wilt thou never be satisfied?
16099A gold mine, I suppose you mean?
16099A magpie? 16099 A noise o''ducks?
16099A stranger?
16099A traveller? 16099 A visitor, eh?"
16099An ad., eh?
16099An adventure-- you?
16099And Mr Buskin was-- all that?
16099And are you an artist?
16099And are you very sorry for yourself?
16099And ca n''t you find the lady?
16099And has the gentleman arrived?
16099And have you really been in Persia? 16099 And how are you feeling, my dear?"
16099And how long are you staying at Cleeve?
16099And how''s me friend St Aubyn?
16099And is that Lubin?
16099And now may we go and look at the flowers?
16099And so your mother keeps geese?
16099And what train do you go by in the morning?
16099And you are not married?
16099And you really believe it?
16099And you think it a safe investment?
16099Are n''t you rather hot, standing there in the sun, Sir, all this time?
16099Are n''t you? 16099 Are you serious?"
16099Are you-- can you perhaps be-- er-- Mr Buckskin?
16099Auntie,he cried,"what do you think?
16099But how about sin?
16099But how about the ghosts? 16099 But may I?"
16099But surely it does n''t pretend to be anything else?
16099But what does it all mean-- how it is you''re not killed?
16099But what does that matter, auntie?
16099But what''s his name?
16099But where-- whereabouts is it?
16099But who is Lubin?
16099But why did n''t you? 16099 But why did you fix on the same day?"
16099But why need you have dressed so early? 16099 But why-- why-- why?"
16099But, my dear aunt, why did you never let me know that I might expect you?
16099Ca n''t you tell me anything about him? 16099 Can such things really be?"
16099Can you tell me whether I''m anywhere near a place called Moorcombe Court?
16099Did I dream_ that_?
16099Did it say it was coming back?
16099Did one ever hear such rubbish? 16099 Did you hear them?"
16099Did you? 16099 Do n''t you believe in marriage?"
16099Do n''t you feel anything?
16099Do you really? 16099 Do you remember what I was saying to you the other day about the educative power of the stage?
16099Do you want us to be all assassinated together?
16099Do you?
16099Drunk, Sir? 16099 Going to lunch with whom?"
16099Gold?
16099Had I?
16099Had he a dark- brown face? 16099 Have a drop of whiskey- and- water?
16099Have you ever been inside?
16099Have you fixed upon a day?
16099Have you no sense of sin?
16099Hot? 16099 How can you have made such a blunder?
16099How d''ye mean?
16099How dare you talk like that? 16099 How do you know she does n''t?"
16099How has he been this afternoon?
16099How is it she never had her likeness taken?
16099How''s Aunt Charlotte, for instance? 16099 How_ can_ people read novels, when there are so many other books in the world?"
16099I hope they have n''t been embezzling your money?
16099I say, Lubin, do you know anything about a Mr St Aubyn, who lives not far from here?
16099I wonder what time it is?
16099I''ve had a lovely time-- haven''t you too? 16099 I, disguise myself in paint and feathers to be a public gazing- stock?
16099I? 16099 I?
16099Is Aunt Charlotte up yet?
16099Is he waking up?
16099Is it an industrial undertaking?
16099Is it possible?
16099Is n''t it exquisite?
16099Is n''t it?
16099Is that a hard saying?
16099Is that all?
16099Is that so, really?
16099Is that you already, Martha?
16099Is this your good behaviour? 16099 It is n''t anything improper, is it?"
16099It''s all very sad and very ugly, is n''t it, Gioconda?
16099It''s rather a mess, is n''t it?
16099Lady?
16099Lor'', Master Austin, wherever was you brought up?
16099Lor''bless you, Master Austin, where was you brought up? 16099 Make my peace with God?"
16099My dear auntie, have you forgotten?
16099No relation to Geoffrey Trevor who was in the 16th Lancers?
16099Now how are you going to get up again, I should like to know? 16099 Now, how is it that your face seems so familiar to me, I wonder?
16099Off already?
16099Oh, Mr St Aubyn, is that you? 16099 Oh, are you?
16099Oh, is it haunted? 16099 Oh, is n''t it perfectly wonderful?
16099Oh, need you go?
16099Oh, why did you break the spell?
16099Oh, why?
16099Ought I to have?
16099Rain?
16099Reading and dreaming, I suppose, as usual?
16099Really?
16099Rude? 16099 Sha n''t I?
16099Shall we say the 24th?
16099So that''s what you''re aiming at, is it? 16099 So you''re Austin, are you?
16099Thanking God? 16099 That bit of lapis lazuli at the top, with a curious design upon it, is by way of being an amulet, I suppose?"
16099The milkman, eh? 16099 Then what would you suggest?"
16099Then who did?
16099Then why do you thank God?
16099Then you are not here for long?
16099Then you enjoyed yourself?
16099There, do n''t you hear them laughing at you? 16099 Travelled in bonnets?"
16099Was he a soldier, like father? 16099 Was it as fine a place as you reckoned it would be?"
16099We ca n''t go on for ever referring to him as''the gentleman,''as though there were no other gentlemen in the world, can we now?
16099Well, and did you have an interesting visit?
16099Well, and how did ye fare at the Court?
16099Well, and what have you been about?
16099Well, auntie!--why, what''s the matter?
16099Well, but what sort of a stranger?
16099Well, what have you been reading, then?
16099Well, what is it all about?
16099Well, why not go by a later train, then?
16099Well?
16099What about? 16099 What are the wickedest flowers you know?"
16099What are these? 16099 What can you be thinking about?"
16099What day will suit you best?
16099What did she_ say_, Austin?
16099What for?
16099What friends have you?
16099What harm could it have done you? 16099 What in the world makes you want me not to go?"
16099What is Art?
16099What is it-- shares or bonds?
16099What jugglery is this?
16099What makes you think so?
16099What sort of a visitor? 16099 What sort of a voice, Austin?"
16099What was it, then?
16099What was she rowing you about? 16099 What''s funny?"
16099What''s the matter?
16099What, because he wanted to burn somebody alive?
16099What, have n''t you seen the bills? 16099 What, him at the Court?"
16099What, never heard of Byron''s''Sardanapalus''?
16099What, was it_ you_ she asked?
16099What, you did n''t know that Roger wrote books?
16099What_ do_ you mean, Austin?
16099What_ do_ you mean, Lubin? 16099 Where can she have got to?
16099Where_ is_ Austin, Martha? 16099 Which way?
16099Who was that lady looking over the garden- gate just now?
16099Why ca n''t you go to- morrow instead?
16099Why does anybody do anything?
16099Why on earth do you go there? 16099 Why, are n''t you fond of church?"
16099Why, auntie?
16099Why, how did you know? 16099 Why, what did she say?"
16099Why, what do you know about it?
16099Why?
16099Will you go to your room this instant and stay there?
16099Wo n''t it be very hot?
16099Wot''s this for?
16099Would he have been putting up at one o''the inns, now, or staying long wi''some o''the gentry?
16099Would it be too late?
16099Yes, Sir?
16099Yes, an old lady,replied Austin,"who----""Did she come in an open fly?"
16099You found Mr St Aubyn at home?
16099You''re going to the theatre to- night, are n''t you, Austin?
16099You? 16099 _ I_?"
16099_ Now_ do n''t you feel anything?
16099_ The_ beauty?
16099_ Who''s_ Mr Buskin?
16099''Squire Bustle''--''Miss Finakin''--''Uncle Jeremiah''--used people to read books like this when grandfather was a little boy?
16099A lady?"
16099Ah, would ye now?"
16099And did he really put in that?
16099And have you ever set fire to a bishop?"
16099And is he a success?"
16099And now you leave me in the most heartless way with all these people on my hands----""Then why did you insist on inviting them?"
16099And pray, young gentleman, from whom did you pick up that?"
16099And so you''ve enjoyed the play?"
16099And what do you think of the performance?
16099And what have_ you_ to say?"
16099And who could tell how near she might be to him?
16099And who was this very patronising old person, pray?
16099And why should she not have married him?
16099And yet, what could possibly have become of her?
16099Anywhere near Peru?"
16099Are n''t you a little fond of them too?"
16099Are n''t you getting nearly worn out yourself, Lubin?"
16099Are there any ghosts?"
16099Are you a Thug?"
16099Are you fond of tapestry?"
16099Are you ready?
16099Been in front?"
16099But how in the wide world did you recognise it?"
16099But she did n''t say you were like your father, did she?"
16099But there might be compensations; who could tell?
16099But was it all true?
16099But what made you do it?
16099But what would have been the good of telling you?
16099But who were the unseen friends who had thus interposed to save his life?
16099But who''s your young friend over there?
16099But why should I defend myself?
16099But you do n''t mind being worshipped, do you, Gioconda?
16099But, then, so many people are, are n''t they?
16099By the Author of the Antidote._ What_ does_ it all mean?
16099Ca n''t you find him anywhere?"
16099Can you stand steady?
16099Could it be mice?
16099Curious that both enterprises should be connected with salt water, eh?
16099Dear auntie, why do n''t you wear bonnets like that?
16099Degrading?
16099Did all your friends turn up?"
16099Did he hear anything?
16099Did n''t my description of the dream just_ fetch_ you?
16099Did she regret it, now that she was able to look back upon the past so calmly?
16099Did she tell you anything about him-- anything, I mean, that you did n''t know before?"
16099Did the water boil, Richards?
16099Did ye never hear that before?"
16099Did you ever hear of her before?"
16099Did you know her well?"
16099Did you never hear that before?
16099Did you see any o''them, as you was so anxious about?"
16099Do n''t you feel a wind?"
16099Do n''t you know what the name may be, neither?"
16099Do n''t you like it?
16099Do n''t you smell them, Lubin?
16099Do you know much of botany?"
16099Do you know what it was she said to me upon her death- bed?
16099Do you often go into the town?"
16099Do you perfectly understand?"
16099Do you see that old statue, just over there by the wall?
16099Do you think he wears a wig?"
16099Do you think they are?"
16099Does n''t the lawn look well?"
16099Down on your knees, and drink a measure to The safety of the King-- the monarch, say I?
16099Every flower seemed to greet him with silent laughter:"Aha, you''ve been playing truant, have you?
16099Had he a bonnet on when you saw him drinking in the bar?"
16099Had he a wooden leg?
16099Had she enjoyed her Cobbledicks and her MacTavishes as much as he had enjoyed his experiences at the Court?
16099Has it anything to do with raw material?
16099Has n''t he got a few rather nice pictures in his rooms?
16099Has she quite forgiven you for having saved her life?"
16099Have you been to the theatre, too?"
16099Have you finished?
16099Have you gone out of your mind?"
16099Have you, within the last three or four weeks, seen a stranger anywhere about?"
16099How am I to know?
16099How can a man go travelling about the country in a bonnet?
16099How could you possibly tell that you were preventing me from getting killed?"
16099How did that come about, I should like to know?"
16099How did that last scene go?
16099How did you amuse yourself all the afternoon, and what did you talk to him about?"
16099How do pagodas grow on trees, I wonder?
16099How do you do, Mr Buskin?
16099How do you manage to keep it in such good condition?"
16099How had she fared, meanwhile?
16099How in the world, Austin, did you manage to escape?"
16099How long have you been living hereabouts?"
16099How long would it take us to get to the bathing- pool just at the bend of the river?"
16099How many spoonfuls of tea did you put in?
16099How old is the tapestry, by the way?"
16099How was it you chose the road?"
16099I always thought a pagoda was a sort of odalisque-- isn''t that right?
16099I daresay my bones may be doing something silly, but really I''m not responsible for their vagaries, am I now?"
16099I do hate them so, do n''t you?
16099I hope he got a lot of marks; do you think he did?
16099I hope you''re pretty well?"
16099I may infer, then, that you''re not exactly hankering to go on the stage yourself?"
16099I might tell you a little more, but then I should n''t expect you to believe it, so what would be the good?
16099I say, how funny my stump looks, does n''t it?
16099I suppose you saw some magnificent scenery in your wanderings?"
16099I told you I should know her, did n''t I?"
16099I wonder who they are?"
16099I''ve certainly never seen you anywhere before, and yet-- and yet-- who_ is_ it you remind me of, for goodness''sake?"
16099If you find intellectual joy in the society of Mrs Cobbledick and Shock- headed Peter----""Shock- headed Peter?
16099If you were n''t a human being, Lubin-- and a very nice one, as you are-- what sort of an animal would you like to be?"
16099Is it really half- past seven?"
16099Is n''t it going to be fun, auntie?"
16099Is n''t it very rude of them?"
16099Is n''t there a ladder tall enough?
16099Is there anything else you want to know?"
16099It is n''t a plantation anywhere, is it?"
16099It''s not good business to raise too great expectations, is it, now?"
16099It''s pretty, is n''t it?"
16099It''s very sad, is n''t it?
16099It_ was_ good of them, was n''t it, auntie dear?"
16099Look at the white and purple lights in the water-- aren''t they marvellous?
16099May I ask what religion you belong to?"
16099Mr St Aubyn has shown me one or two; what will Mr Buskin''s be like?
16099My dear boy, have you taken leave of your senses?
16099Now I should propose''The Art of Creation''--do you know it?
16099Now do n''t you think that''s rather a good idea?"
16099Now, how would you like to take a class in the Sunday- school, for instance?
16099Now, is n''t that near enough?
16099Now, what do you make of that?"
16099Now, what have you to say?"
16099Oh, do look here; is n''t this wonderful?
16099Or a scar down one of his cheeks?"
16099Or a wooden leg?
16099Or is it only nine?"
16099Painting, for instance; did you ever see anything to compare with that Banqueting Scene in the Palace?
16099People used to see them once upon a time-- why ca n''t we now?
16099She told you that?"
16099So you''ve come to beard the lion in his den, have you?
16099Straying into alien precincts, roving in search of something newer and gaudier than anything you have here?
16099Tell me then-- does it never occur to you that we may also have duties to others?"
16099That flower is the very incarnation of sin; no, not incarnation-- what''s the word?
16099The boys were full of fun as usual, and dear Lizzie-- or was it Florrie?
16099Then, with another start:"But how can you know that?"
16099There are nineteen of them, are n''t there?
16099There you''ll find a most remarkable account of all those heathen superstitions----""Where is Africa?"
16099Thereupon Austin said:"Is it absolutely necessary for you to go to town this morning, auntie?"
16099To all intents and purposes, the experience that awaited him was something entirely new; how, he wondered, would it fit into his scheme of life?
16099Was I very heavy?
16099Was he wounded?
16099Was it bewitched?
16099Was it so?
16099Was n''t it a stockjobber who thought Botticelli was a cheese?
16099Was n''t it curious?
16099Was n''t there a faint rustling sound somewhere in the air behind him?
16099Was she blowing you up about this morning?"
16099We came to the market- place of Appius filled with sailors and insolent brokers._--Were they stockbrokers, I wonder?
16099We shall have a week for certain, but after that----""How you draw?"
16099We''re quite happy alone; what do we want of all these horrible people coming to bore us for Heaven knows how many hours?
16099Well, Austin, and what are you reading now?"
16099Were you a''cruel maid''like the young women one reads about in poetry- books?
16099Were you ever compelled to disguise yourself when you were travelling?"
16099Were you very much carried away?"
16099What Buskin are you raving about, for Heaven''s sake?"
16099What are those?
16099What could be the matter with him?
16099What could it all portend?
16099What could that something be?
16099What did it matter, after all?
16099What did you do that for?"
16099What do I do to make you anxious?
16099What do legs matter?
16099What do you say your name is?"
16099What does a boy generally feel under such circumstances?
16099What does one''s body matter?
16099What else could it have been?
16099What has my being illogical got to do with it?"
16099What have you done with the key?"
16099What impressed you most about the whole affair?"
16099What in creation ever put such an idea into your head?"
16099What in the world can you be thinking of?"
16099What in the world could it have been?"
16099What in the world is to be done?
16099What in the world was she to say to the man?
16099What in the world will you say next?"
16099What in the world''s the matter with the boy now?"
16099What is an artist?"
16099What is the good of telling you about it?
16099What is there more to tell?"
16099What is to be done with such a boy?"
16099What old goose?"
16099What on earth induced you to pitch on the very day when you were invited out?"
16099What on earth makes you so insistent that I should meet these friends of yours?"
16099What on earth was the matter with the bed?
16099What other artist can say as much?"
16099What possible pleasure, he marvelled, could Aunt Charlotte find in such a vapid form of dissipation?
16099What room would there be, in his idealistic philosophy, for the stage?
16099What should I gain by waiting?"
16099What sort of a man, he wondered, could Mr Ogilvie be?
16099What sort of a woman, he wondered, could that unknown mother have been?
16099What time does this performance of yours begin to- night?"
16099What was he like?
16099What was it like?"
16099What was it that pushed you back?"
16099What was my mother like?
16099What was the net result?
16099What was the use of worrying about a matter over which he had absolutely no control?
16099What were the men thinking of?
16099What were theological conundrums to her now?
16099What would have been the use?
16099What would you and I feel?
16099What''d he look like, now?"
16099What''s the amount you have to invest-- two thousand pounds, is n''t it?
16099What''s this?
16099What, do they quack so loud?"
16099What_ could_ be happening?
16099What_ does_ it matter if one eats at half- past one or at a quarter to two?
16099What_ is_''Sardanapalus,''may I ask?"
16099What_ was_ to be done with such a boy?
16099Whatever will she say when she hears about this to- do?"
16099Where are you?
16099Where did you pick it up?"
16099Where is India, by the bye?
16099Where''s Lubin?
16099Where_ is_ Austin, and why does n''t he open the door?"
16099Whereabouts was she?"
16099Which way did you come back?"
16099Who had uncovered him in that unceremonious way, leaving him perished with cold?
16099Who hung the bedclothes over the footrail if you did n''t?"
16099Who in the name of fortune is that?"
16099Who was Tom Dove, and why did he come to town?"
16099Who will ever take such care of him as I should?''
16099Whom do you want to ask?"
16099Why ca n''t you take a rather more cosmic view of things?"
16099Why did he feel so tired?
16099Why do cats occasionally wash their heads behind the ear?
16099Why do n''t you introduce him?"
16099Why do n''t you spend hours every day in this wonderful place?"
16099Why do people knock about the world as they do, when they might stay quietly at home?"
16099Why had he been so silly as to take the highway, with its horrid dust and glare, when the field and the lane would have been so much more pleasant?
16099Why had she given him no encouragement?
16099Why should not he, Austin Trevor, cripple as he was, so live the Daphnis life as to be himself a Daphnis?
16099Why should she?"
16099Why were they so neglectful of her interests?
16099Why, he wondered, were there no delightful shepherd- boys now- a- days, who spent their time in lying under trees and singing one against the other?
16099Why, then, should he concern himself about what might be in store for him?
16099Why, what''s it all about?"
16099Why?
16099Why?"
16099Why?"
16099Wot d''ye mean by it?"
16099Would it bother you very much?"
16099Would you mind if I told you about them?
16099You are n''t a cannibal, are you?"
16099You do n''t expect me to believe that you knew what was going to happen and kept me at home on purpose?
16099You do n''t live at the Court, do you?"
16099You hate the MacTavishes, do n''t you, Lubin?
16099You have n''t seen anyone like that, have you?"
16099You might tell me a little more, might you?"
16099You see all that raw material is n''t composed of gossamer----""What time did it occur?"
16099You will forgive me-- won''t you?"
16099You wo n''t give me a step- uncle, will you?
16099You''ll see Aunt Charlotte before you go away?
16099You''ll think over that little matter we were speaking of?"
16099You''re sure?
16099You''ve been a great traveller, have you not?"
16099You''ve never seen one, have you?"
16099asked Austin,"Is n''t He supernatural?
16099have you seen Master Austin anywhere?"
