22749I met a man at the club who said,"Wo n''t you come with us to- morrow( Sunday) and have a try for duck?"
22749I tailed behind and sketched as per margin, as we went through the sand-- shockingly unacademical was n''t it, to draw walking?
22749I wonder if our nobility will take it lying down-- and if I may be forgiven, this extra wide digression?

16863Have you not deposited silver with some person of your acquaintance?
16863The treasurer inquired, what could I say?
16863Then it is your wish to recover?

16863And is it indeed true that my own dear Harriet and my dearly loved brother are adopted into the family of God''s chosen ones?
16863And when you were able to speak, why were you not incessantly telling us of this day of doom, when we visited you?

16863Are you married?
16863Are you teachers of religion?

16863At two o''clock in the morning, wishing to obtain one more token of recognition, I roused her attention and said,''Do you still love the Saviour?''
16863But if not, oh who can tell your dreadful danger?
16863But is this all the silver you have?"
16863But, said Mr. Judson, suppose you change worlds in the meantime?
16863Can I sacriligiously wish to rob her crown of a single gem?

16863On seeing my tears, he said,''Are you not reconciled to the will of God, my love?''
16863Or are you all careless and indifferent respecting your precious soul?
16863Or shall we try to remove you into town immediately?''
16863Shall we take them or let them remain?''
16863She turned away from me in alarm, and I, obliged to seek comfort elsewhere, found my way to the grave, but who ever obtained comfort there?
16863Should I not rather stay and assist in gathering in these dear scattered lambs of the fold?

16863Why did I not listen to the advice of friends in Bengal and remain till the war was concluded?
16863Why do you dress so?''
16863Why, oh why did you ever speak of any other thing, while we were ignorant of this most momentous of all truths?
16863Wilt thou, then, kneel beside the sod Of her who kneels with thee no more, And give thy heart anew to God, Who griefs unnumbered for thee bore?
16863a medical man too?''
16863adds her husband,"With what meekness, patience magnanimity and Christian fortitude, she bore those sufferings; and can I wish they had been less?
16863and why might not the same Spirit lead them to him who is not only the truth, but the way,--the way to Heaven?
16863or that the moment of departure must arrive, before she could falter,"My child,_ I hope_ I am willing?"
16863should we have white teeth like a dog or a monkey?"
16863through the silent waste, what murmur breaks?
16863wilt thou then forgive the tear?
16863wilt thou watch with wakeful eye, The dying pillow of thy love?
34578But,replied the monarch,"are we not the descendants of the illustrious Prince Thamadat?
34578But,retorted Buddha,"if in that new place we be likewise reviled, what then?"
34578But,said Buddha,"if we be ill- treated in the new place we go to, what is to be done?"
34578By what means,said he to himself,"can a heart find peace and happiness?"
34578How is this?
34578How is this?
34578Is it you, great Rahan,cried Kathaba,"whom we see here?"
34578My son,answered Buddha,"in what country does your brother Thariputra spend his season?"
34578To whom,said he,"shall I announce the law?"
34578What is the doctrine of that great master?
34578What wonder will you work, my daughter, Garamie?
34578What?
34578Where is he now?
34578Who advised you to commit the murder?
34578Who are you?
34578Who is here watching?
34578Who is that man?
34578Anatapein asked Gaudama how he wished the donation should be made and effected?
34578And have you no other science to teach us?"
34578As soon as he saw him he exclaimed:"Illustrious Buddha, why do you expose us to such a shame?
34578Buddha considered a third time, and said to himself:"To whom shall I go to preach the law?"
34578Buddha coolly asked the king,"What is that object which is stretched before us?"
34578Buddha said to him:"Do you believe those beauties before you to be equal to Dzanapada?"
34578Buddha said to them,"Which, in your opinion, is the best and most advantageous thing, either to go in search of yourselves or in search of a woman?"
34578Buddha then thought: Where shall I find a stone to rub it upon?
34578Buddha, addressing Ratha''s father, said to him,"What will you have to state in reply to what I am about to tell you?
34578But how is a world brought into existence?
34578But such a happy state is, as yet, at a great distance; where is the road leading thereto?
34578But why is it so?
34578By what means can a man get out of the stream or current of passions?
34578By what means can such an invaluable treasure be procured?
34578By what means can this ignorance be done away with?
34578By what possible means could you ever succeed in bringing me back into the whirlpool of passions?"
34578Can his parents or wife be really happy by the mere accidental ties that connect them with his person?
34578Can it be conferred upon man by the possession of some exterior object?
34578Could not a better and more decent mode be resorted to for supplying your wants?"
34578Could you ever prove, by indisputable evidence, that you have ever made offerings enough to be deserving of this throne?"
34578FOOTNOTES[ 1] Which of the two systems, Buddhism or Brahminism, is the most ancient?
34578Gaudama hearing all these words said:"What means this?
34578He asks himself, In what consists true and real happiness?
34578He said aloud,"Who are they that can do wonders?
34578He said to him,"O wretched one, are you not aware that fear is no longer to be found in him who has become a Rahanda?"
34578He thought again: Where is a fit spot to extend my clothes upon?
34578He thought again: Where is a proper place to dry it upon?
34578How can he cross over the sea of existences?
34578How can he free himself from the evil influence?
34578How could that be so?
34578How is it that at midnight there was such an uncommon splendour?
34578How is it, moreover, that the tree Yekadat is now bending down its branches?"
34578How is this power conferred upon him?
34578How shall he be able to purify himself from the smallest stain of concupiscence?"
34578I am old now, and the end of my existence is quite uncertain; could you not undertake to bring my son over to me?
34578In what consists the fulfilment of the religious duties?
34578In what does such a perfection consist?
34578Is it necessary to go from door to door to beg your food?
34578It may be asked what becomes of the sum of demerits and its consequent evil influence, whilst the superior good influence prevails?
34578May I be allowed to ask what country you belong to, who you are, and from what illustrious lineage and descent you are come?"
34578On hearing this unusual noise, the chief of Nagas awoke from his sleep, and said:"How is this?
34578On my appearance before the crowd they will ask, What is this water- fowl?
34578Phralaong at that moment said to Manh:"How do you dare to pretend to the possession of this throne?
34578Shall I not be able to get a person who could procure for me some information respecting my son?"
34578Surprised at what he perceived, he said to Buddha:"O Rahan, formerly there were here neither tank nor stone; how is it that they are here now?
34578The enraged Manh cried to his followers,"Why do you stand looking on?
34578The heretics, informed of this, said,"What will become of us?
34578The king said to them,"Wicked men, is it true that you have killed the woman Thondarie?"
34578The members of the deputation having duly paid their respects, said to him,"O most excellent Phra, which is the best thing to be bestowed in alms?
34578They continued addressing Buddha, and said:"What shall we henceforth worship?"
34578They said to Thindzi,"Teacher, is this all that you know?
34578To what law or doctrine have you given preference in your arduous studies?"
34578To what purpose are uttered so many fine expressions?"
34578To what shall I liken it as regards the happy results it produces?
34578To whom shall I go now?"
34578Under what teacher have you become a Rahan?
34578Unmoved by all their allurements, Buddha said to them,"For what purpose do you come to me?
34578Was the monarch induced by considerations of a higher order to send for Buddha?
34578What are the causes productive of such a burning?
34578What are the duties to be performed in order to become a real Pounha?"
34578What causes birth, old age, and death?
34578What has become of that form which deceived and enslaved so many?
34578What is meant by Dzan?
34578What is meant by the religious disposition?
34578What is pain, which is the first of the great truths?
34578What is the destruction of pain, which is the third great truth?
34578What is the production of pain, the second sublime truth?
34578What is the real renouncing?
34578What is the true knowledge?
34578What is the way leading to the destruction of that desire, which is the fourth great truth?
34578What shall it avail any man to feel envious at the success he obtains by so legitimate a means?"
34578What will become of my throne?
34578What will become of our country?"
34578Whence comes the name Pounha?
34578Whence that involuntary cry for assistance, but from the innate consciousness that above man there is some one ruling over his destinies?
34578Where is it to be found?
34578Which is the best and the fittest thing to put an end to passions?"
34578Which is the most pleasurable?
34578Which is the most savoury and relishing of all things?
34578Which is the most valuable, a small quantity of water or the lives of countless beings, and, in particular, the lives of princes?"
34578Who could, then, wonder at the conduct of Tsampooka?
34578Who has ever thought of giving any credence to those fables?
34578Who is your guide in the way to perfection?
34578Who will now ever presume to say that he ought to subject himself again to them and bend his neck under their baneful influence?"
34578Why do they exist?
34578Why is there birth?
34578Why should I bestow signs of compassion upon it?
34578Would any one take her now for half that sum?"
34578[ 2] I will repay their good offices to me, by preaching to them the law, but where are they now?"
34578[ 4] Is not that young man doing the duty of forerunner of Buddha on the occasion of his solemn entry into the city of Radzagio?
34578and what is the doctrine he is preaching to you?"
34578said he, with an unfeigned feeling of surprise,"and by what way did you come and contrive to arrive here before me?"
34578said he,"is it against me alone that such a countless crowd of warriors has been assembled?
34578said the astonished Thagia;"am I doomed to lose my happy state?"
34578what does this mean?"
34578who has ever equalled him?
21242And now, will you let me know what you are thinking of doing? 21242 And so you are home for good, old fellow?"
21242And where is Kate?
21242And who is your companion?
21242And would many of your people risk their lives in the way you did, for a stranger?
21242And you think that they will really venture to withstand us? 21242 Are there any plain clothes?"
21242Are they only going to attack at the pagoda?
21242Are you awake, Harry?
21242Are you better, Harry?
21242Are you going to stay here?
21242Are you sure of that?
21242Are you sure, old man, that this is not a dream?
21242But I thought that you had a boat that you went up the rivers in, uncle?
21242But how about money, uncle?
21242But why should not they find us here, Stanley?
21242Can any of you suggest a plan by which we could get out, without much risk of setting them in motion?
21242Could you form any idea from his speech?
21242Did not Runkoor tell you that I had been here before?
21242Did you ask how many there were of them, Meinik?
21242Did you go down to Harry''s place?
21242Did you kill him, master?
21242Did you say that we are regularly shut up, in front, by that stockade?
21242Do you agree to take the jeweller''s offer, whatever it is?
21242Do you believe in them, Meinik?
21242Do you know anything about mining, for I know nothing? 21242 Do you know what it is, Harry?"
21242Do you not know that there are many here who, like myself, have come in as fugitives, with instructions what to do when our people attack? 21242 Do you see that, sir?
21242Do you speak Hindustani? 21242 Do you think that they will beat us, then?"
21242Do you think that we can get two or three men to go with us, from here?
21242Has Bandoola''s army moved yet?
21242Has it hurt you much?
21242Have you a turban? 21242 Have you arranged with him for any particular sum for his services?
21242Have you asked the man you brought down with you?
21242Have you been troubled with robbers, of late, father?
21242Have you everything in readiness, Major?
21242Have you had any food, Meinik?
21242Have you heard that the enemy are going to attack, on Tuesday or Wednesday night?
21242How are you treated?
21242How did you manage to fall into the hands of these people?
21242How have you got on, Meinik?
21242How is it that you come to speak our language?
21242How long do you think that this business is going to last?
21242How many miles is it from here, do you think?
21242How many would you like to have?
21242How was it that he came to help you, sir?
21242How will you go, master? 21242 I remember you used to be able to talk four or five of the native languages, but how did you come to pick up Burmese?"
21242I suppose you have not done any shooting, Stanley?
21242I suppose, Mr. Brooke,he said,"your newly- found cousin has told you about his adventure with the leopard?"
21242I thought you called it Kathee, uncle?
21242Is he a Burman?
21242Is he an Englishman, also?
21242Is she yours, uncle?
21242Is the stone hard?
21242Is there an empty hut?
21242Is your comrade dead?
21242My dear Stanley,Harry said, with a feeble laugh,"do you know that you are spoiling your chance of an earldom?"
21242Now, sir, what can I do for you? 21242 Now, what are you going to do, Stanley?"
21242Oh, is it you, Stanley? 21242 The general wants to know, Mr. Brooke, why you placed a prisoner under a guard by his house; instead of sending him to the prison, as usual?"
21242Then you do n''t go further south than Chittagong, uncle?
21242Then you know nothing whatever of this man?
21242Then you think that he will return soon?
21242Then you think that there are treasures buried here, somewhere?
21242Then your father was in the service, too?
21242They bring down rubies from there, do they not?
21242They do not often resist, then?
21242Well, Harry, how are you feeling? 21242 Well, Meinik, have you found men willing to go with us?"
21242Well, Meinik, what do you think of your Invulnerables, now?
21242Well, Mr. Brooke, what made you put a sentry over the man, and leave him here? 21242 Well, Stanley, what are you going to do with this monstrous stone Meinik tells me of?"
21242Well, do you think that we have done with them?
21242Well, has everything been quiet here?
21242Well, uncle, how are you?
21242Well, what is it, Meinik?
21242What am I to do about your hair, master?
21242What are Mugs, uncle?
21242What are they going on chopping down trees for?
21242What are you doing, my man? 21242 What can I do for my lord?"
21242What did you do that for?
21242What do you do with it, when you get back?
21242What do you think of it?
21242What do you think that they are going to do with us, sahib?
21242What do you think, sir-- will you stay here always? 21242 What does one care for rain, when there is something to do?
21242What had I best do, my friend?
21242What has happened?
21242What have you there, Meinik?
21242What is his age?
21242What is it made of?
21242What is the matter?
21242What should they go to Toungoo for?
21242What think you of this news?
21242What think you, yourself?
21242What, even if it is raining?
21242What, is it you, Stanley? 21242 Where are you going?"
21242Where have you been for the last year and half, Meinik, if I may ask?
21242Where is he now?
21242Where is my friend?
21242Where was it, uncle?
21242Which way did they go?
21242Who could have known you? 21242 Who is it who comes here at this hour?"
21242Who would have thought of such great ships? 21242 Whom have you got here, jemadar?"
21242Whom have you with you?
21242Why should he give it for a stranger?
21242Why should it only be there?
21242Why were you and your comrade on the other side of the river? 21242 Why, what on earth have you been doing-- robbing the treasury of the King of Ava?"
21242Will our two men be on duty?
21242Will that suit you? 21242 Will you be ready to start at four in the morning?
21242Will you bury your companion?
21242Will you take the rest of them, uncle, and sell them at Calcutta-- or shall I send them to Madras, or home to England?
21242Yes, master, one could store away the food; but where should we store the water? 21242 You are an officer, sir?"
21242You do n''t think that there will be any danger in your going in there, Meinik? 21242 You do not know whether the country near the town is open, or whether the forests approach it closely?"
21242You know not of what part he is a native?
21242You still hold firm to your determination to leave the service, Captain Brooke?
21242You think that there is no chance of their beating us?
21242You will take me with you, uncle?
21242After the first pleasure of meeting was over, Stanley said:"I suppose you have got the contract, uncle?"
21242Am I really outside the place altogether?"
21242Are there any of your officers in the village?"
21242Are you going to take a servant with you, Harry?
21242As soon as they had fairly started, Stanley said:"Had we not better get rid of the fire, Meinik?
21242Brooke?"
21242Brooke?"
21242Brooke?"
21242But have you heard the news?"
21242But what made you think of the story that the Burman was one of a party that had come in to do something?"
21242By the way, what shall I bring with me?"
21242Could one go on board of them?"
21242Did you ever hear of their attacking a large body of men?
21242Do you know that your father was related-- distantly of course-- to the Earl of Netherly?"
21242Does he speak our tongue?"
21242Had you heard aught of this?"
21242Has he all his senses?"
21242Has he arms?"
21242How did you hear it?"
21242How did you manage to make your way down?"
21242How is he?"
21242How many are there of them?"
21242How many of them are there, do you think?"
21242How old are you, now?"
21242Is it certain?
21242Is it really you, Stanley?"
21242Looking up at the Burmese, he said, in their own language:"That was a pretty close shave, was n''t it?"
21242Now you have got it, why should you go away again?"
21242On horse or foot?"
21242Shall I first skin the leopard?"
21242Shall I give you that eighteen hundred now; or will you have an order upon the paymaster, in Calcutta?"
21242Shall we easily overpower these barbarians?
21242Should I have to get a uniform?"
21242The difficulty would be, what to do with him when we got him out?
21242The general gave no special orders, I suppose?"
21242The question is, will it be possible to clear them away?
21242Then you have not met before?"
21242Then you will leave the boy in my hands?"
21242They can only enter two abreast and, with a dozen spear points facing them, what can they do?
21242Think you that the handful that would be transported in ships can stand against such a host?"
21242Was it like this when you were out in the woods?"
21242We might bring skins in that would last us for a week, perhaps two weeks, but after that?"
21242What do you think of the plan?"
21242What is the connection between us?
21242What on earth are you doing here?
21242What think you of it, my son?
21242What were they like?"
21242What, then, do you think we had best do?"
21242When did you arrive?"
21242When you have done that, will you ride out to the pagoda and inform your colonel what you have discovered?
21242Where am I?
21242Where is your mother?
21242Who put you on guard over that prisoner?"
21242Why on earth did the brigands give you the gems?"
21242Why should men go to the labour of cutting this long stair, and excavating this chamber here, without any reason whatever?
21242Why should they have taken the trouble to cut that long flight of steps through the rock, just to reach this miserable little chamber?"
21242Will they cut off my head?"
21242Will you give it him, for my sake?"
21242Will you kindly tell the general that I am very pleased at the news?
21242You are feeling all right, I hope?"
21242You have not fallen into trouble, I hope?"
21242You think that there is no doubt that the news is correct?"
15171Mr. Bauer is not half appreciated yet; he is considered a very great artist, but what is that to what he was? 15171 1 Cyprinidae, Streams from A brown fish, with irregular Oreinus? 15171 69 Barbus?
1517170 Gonorhynchus?"
1517172 Cyprinoid,"73"Gonorhyncus, Gurmab, Same as 70?
15171998 common, Chenopodioid?
15171A curious question arises, what is the frond of a fern?
15171A curious tendency is observed in Pomaceae, Ceraseae to have the stamina of the same colour as the petals, thereby_ showing their origin_?
15171A fine arborescent Wendlandia, Bignonia indica?
15171A small Lycopodium, Gmelina asiatica?
15171A_ Sarcopyramis Sonerilae_ was also found, but rather past flowering, and an Acrostichum?
15171After leaving Panga we came on to a place called Minzapeeza, here Adiantum, Aspidium?
15171Again, why do some plants flower sooner at such elevations than at other lower places?
15171All genuine aquatic types have leaves involute in vernation?
15171Also the sheath may not have adhesive powers at its apex to prevent the escape of the radical at that point: witness Hyacinth roots?
15171An arborescent Urticea( Baehmeria?)
15171An both longitudinally and Opsarion?
15171Aralia or Panax, four or five species, Croton malvaefolium, Justicia, Adhatoda, Peristrophe, Amaranthaceae, Artemisia, Urtica urens?
15171Are all Myrtaceae dicarpellar?
15171Are they barren from mere deficiency in supplies, such as may result from many circumstances; or are the antheriform ramenta deficient?
15171Artemisiae one or two, Centaurea spinosa, Salsola cordifolia and aphylla?
15171Astragalus, and Peganum, are the most common; Muscoides, Plantaginacea reoccur, a curious_ leaved_ Composita?
15171At 10,000 feet, the Spilus microphyllus, Polygonum, as well as on ascent Gaultheria nummularioid., swards abounding with Gramen nardoides(?
15171At 8,000 feet, Hamiltonia?
15171At 9,300 feet, Morina Wallichiana, Osmundioid, Dipsacus, Scabiosa?
15171At the nullah, Fici sp., Saccharum Megala, Verbenacia?
15171At the raised Marine Fossil Beach, a queer Cephalanthus?
15171At the same elevation Parnassia, Epilobium monus, Gnaphalium densiflor., Vaccinium pumilum, Gentiana, Polygonum(?)
15171Below this a little, woods commence chiefly of Bogh Pata, Cerasus, Salix, Rosa fructibus hispidis, Acers, Abelia?
15171Berberis asiatica, Hamamelidea?
15171Berberis asiatica, Viburna, Spiraea_ bella_?
15171But wherever I turn, the question suggests itself, what business have I here collecting plants, with so many in Calcutta demanding attention?
15171Can it be cultivated solely for the straw?
15171Can the Mahaseer not reach this?
15171Chilwa, Perilamp,?
15171Commelina bengalensis?
15171Does this indicate its being of a more tropical nature than the others?
15171During the latter portion of the journey, I gathered a Passiflora?
15171Euphorbia ramis 4-gonis, foliis?
15171Ferns occur in more abundance, thence downwards Woodwardia, Dicksonia?
15171Ficus elastica?
15171Hamamelidea, Cedrela?
15171Horsemen to the number of 100?
15171How can I reconcile my own splendid opportunities with those of more deserving naturalists in other branches?
15171How can one account for the small elevation at which fish are found in the Himalayan?
15171Hymenophyllum, Davallia atrata, Diplazium, Begonia Malabarica?
15171I am horridly idle, and yet what can I do without books; yet with regard to books, the more originality we possess, the less we require them?
15171I hope to be particular in hereafter comparing the floras of all the deserts?
15171I met with Sarcostemma ciliatum; Wall.?
15171In addition a Polygala, a Crucifera with bracteae and white flowers, an Acanthacea, Prenanthes?
15171In cornfields Fumariaceae, Adonis, Cruciferae, Pulmonaria, Arenaria, Hordei sp., Tulipa lutea, and Hyacinthus?
15171In one place I gathered Lonicera heterophylla, a fragrant Valeriana?
15171In several cases, each pinna appears to have scales only which become barren lobes?
15171In the ditches Typha, Butomus, watercresses, Alomioides, Ceratophyllum, Lemna_ gibba_?
15171In the fields a young Ranunculus in profusion, Veronica agrestis, Euphorbia, Festuca annua?
15171In the vine the ancient tendrils are perfectly woody, although this may not be true wood, yet it is truly fibrous, and I ask, from what is it formed?
15171Is it not rather a Viticea, owing to the absence of the 5th stamen?
15171Is it, or is it not, subservient to reproduction?
15171Is there any plant existing with two sorts of gemmae, so differently constituted?
15171It obviously has much analogy?
15171It would be curious to enquire why the powers of variation change so completely in the different families?
15171Khurda, ditto Trichopterus?
15171Kydia continues; a fine Palm, caudex 8- 10-pedali; it probably belongs to the genus Wallichia?

29527''And after thou hast run over all things, what will it profit thee if thou hast neglected thyself?''
29527''And if a young man fell in love with a girl?''
29527''And if he did n''t?''
29527''And then?''
29527''And yet what would I have gained by wailing and lamenting either for myself or for others?
29527''Are there not charms that will prevent you being hurt if you are hit, and that will not allow a sword to cut you?
29527''Can you do anything,''I asked,''to cheer him?
29527''Could government do nothing?''
29527''Did n''t anyone come to call?''
29527''Has ever anyone died in your household?''
29527''How can I take you back again?''
29527''I wonder what''s in that tin box?''
29527''Is n''t that rather old to be just married?''
29527''Is there no food in the bazaar, that you must go and take the lives of animals?''
29527''It is your own look- out,''they would say;''if you want to die why should we prevent you?
29527''Suppose you think of your good deeds, what then?
29527''Thakin,''she said at last,''what am I to do?
29527''The blossoms are beautiful,''they said;''what care we for the thorns?
29527''Then, who wrote the letter?''
29527''They are very beautiful,''they said,''but these roads that pass through them, whither do they lead?
29527''To see him,''he said,''I must remove the hand of his mother, and she may awake; and if she awake, how shall I depart?
29527''Was I not aware,''he said, with bitter indignation at his weakness,''that when I became a recluse I must eat such food as this?
29527''What did she pray for?''
29527''What is the use of that?''
29527''What is the use,''said my friend,''of this religion that we see so many signs of?
29527''What seek you here?
29527''What should she pray for, thakin?
29527''What would happen,''I asked once,''if anyone went into that wood?
29527''When were you married?''
29527''Why does the law discriminate?''
29527''Why is this difference?''
29527''Why should that be so?''
29527''Would he return?''
29527''You are so strong, have you no compassion for him who is weak, who is tempted, who has fallen?''
29527''You would n''t have one law for a man and another for a woman?''
29527--_Burmese Love- Song._ If you were to ask a Burman''What is the position of women in Burma?''
29527A Burman would not ask,''Were they married?''
29527All was as before, and the truth-- the truth, where was that?
29527And amongst the audience were there not the girls''relations, their sisters, their lovers?
29527And beyond death?
29527And he who can live his life, what cares he for reading of the lives of other people?
29527And how can you turn your mind to meditation and thought if your body is in suffering?
29527And if there is any merit in such little charity, as the Burmese say there is, why should I not gain it, too?
29527And if we have none?
29527And if we should say that this Deliverance from life, this Great Peace, is Death, what matter, if it be indeed Peace?
29527And if you ask them, they will say:''If a man be sick, do you shoot him?
29527And is the girl alone?
29527And my gift?
29527And the Burman would say at length to himself, Can this be the belief of this people at all?
29527And the boy?
29527And the lady?
29527And the paper?
29527And then?
29527And what would he see?
29527And when he dies, shall they go down into the void with him?
29527And why?
29527And yet what could I have gained by wailing and lamentation either for myself or for others?
29527And yet what have I done?
29527Are not visions and trances, dreams and imaginations, the very proof of holiness?
29527But do you think a Burman would render this homage to a monk whom he could not respect, who did actions he should not?
29527But if they had been chained together, what then?
29527But now, what was to be done?
29527But what is the use of Buddhism?
29527But what is the use of Buddhism?''
29527But, after all, could he help it?
29527CHAPTER XII PRAYER''What is there that can justify tears and lamentations?''
29527Can anyone ever tell when the influence of a monk has been other than for pity or mercy?
29527Can there be a more valuable knowledge for anyone than this?
29527Can there be anywhere a greater contrast than this?
29527Can you imagine a more successful end than that?
29527Can you imagine the religious teachers of any other religion being warned to keep themselves free from visions?
29527Can you imagine this happening anywhere else?
29527Can you think of any other schoolboys sparing any animal they caught, much less poisonous snakes?
29527Can you wonder that his followers love him?
29527Can you wonder that his teaching has come home to them as never did teaching elsewhere?
29527Could anything be expected from this except what actually did happen?
29527Could they act one thing and believe another?
29527Could they be reconciled?
29527Did I not live in one of their monasteries for over two months when we first came and camped there with a cavalry squadron?
29527Did not our teacher fail?
29527Did not the Buddha prove the futility of this long ago?
29527Do you speak to him of what may happen after death, of hopes of another life?''
29527Do you suppose the people would reverence it as they do if it were corrupt?
29527Do you think I could now turn round and criticise you?
29527Do you think a queen would pray differently to any other woman?''
29527Do you think that a Burmese boy would be allowed to birds''-nest, or worry rats with a terrier, or go ferreting?
29527Do you think that when she talked religion with her husband she ever thought that it would cause him to leave her and go away for ever?
29527Does it matter much which was right or wrong, now that the mischief was done?
29527Does not this out- miracle any miracle?
29527For are not these, too, of the very soul of the people?
29527For does he not daily see people who know of their former lives?
29527For if you lose your temper, who is the sufferer?
29527For life is short, and though to- day be to us, who can tell for the morrow?
29527Has any religion ever had for twenty- four centuries such a proof as this?
29527Has not everyone learnt it, this, the first truth of Buddhism, long before his hair is gray, before his hands are shaking, before his teeth are gone?
29527Have not all religions been glad to give their fanes the glory and majesty of great trees?
29527Have not trees been always sacred things?
29527He bent forward till his head was close to the merchant''s head, and whispered:''Friend, have you any whisky?''
29527He played his game, he lost, and paid; but the girl?
29527He would find---- But need I say what he would find?
29527How can you forget the body, and turn the soul to better thoughts, if you are for ever torturing that body, and thereby keeping it in memory?
29527How could I have lived those years alone?
29527How else should it be determined?
29527How shall a man so think and so act that he shall come at length unto the Great Peace?
29527How shall we escape from it?
29527How were the beliefs of a people to be known, and why should there be such difficulties in the way?
29527I can smell it, ca n''t you?''
29527I could forgive the theft, but the being in gaol-- how can I forgive that?''
29527If he injure his spine so that he will be a cripple for life, do you put him out of his pain?''
29527If it be a different way of soothing a man''s end from those which other nations use, is it the worse for that?
29527If many of you had not admitted me, a stranger, into your friendship during my many very solitary years, of what sort should I be now?
29527If the fruit be rotten, can the tree be good?
29527If there be trouble for to- day, what can it matter if you do but command yourself?
29527If they should do so, can you wonder?
29527If we can get it up, may we have it back to hang in our pagoda as our own again?''
29527If we find the way dark and weary, if our footsteps fail, if we wander in wrong paths, did not he do the same?
29527If you are guilty of disgraceful acts, of discourteous words, who suffers?
29527If you say by religion, he laughs, and asks what religion has to do with such things?
29527In a summer sea, where is the need of havens?
29527In this terrible scene of anarchy and confusion, in this death peril of their nation, what were the monks doing?
29527Is it an exception?
29527Is it true, he would say to himself, that these people believe that riches are an evil thing?
29527Is not this teaching the very reverse of that of all other peoples and religions?
29527Is the Nat really gone?
29527Is this always true?
29527Martyrdom-- what is martyrdom, what is death, for your religion, compared to living within its commands?
29527Men would help me if they could, but they can not; surely there will be someone?''
29527Nay, does he not himself, often vaguely, have glimpses of that former life of his?
29527Nothing is worth anything to him compared with that, for while a man lives, what is the good of all these things if he have no leisure to enjoy them?
29527Shall I give him up to death?''
29527She hath precious stones in her ears, but her eyes, what jewels can compare unto them?
29527So I went to a friend of mine, a Burman magistrate, and I asked him:''When a man is dying, what does he try to think of?
29527So, then, the question, How do you know that your faith is true?
29527Surely someone will help me?
29527Surely they believe their religion?
29527That a woman should have a nagging tongue, that a man should be a drunkard, what could be better cause than this?
29527The men joke and laugh, and you laugh, too; the children smile at you as they pass, and you must smile, too; can you help it?
29527The slave was much troubled at this, and he did his best to avoid her; but he was a slave and under orders, and what could he do?
29527They did not dance very well, perhaps; they were none of them very beautiful; but what matter?
29527They nearly always ended in our favour-- how could it be otherwise?
29527Think not that I, though the Buddha, have not felt all this even as any other of you; was I not alone when I was seeking for wisdom in the wilderness?
29527To see the moon rise on the river as you float along, while the boat rocks to and fro and someone talks to you-- is not that better than any tale?
29527Truly,_ are_ these their beliefs?
29527Was I not alone when I was seeking for wisdom in the wilderness?
29527Were the fares too high?--was it uncomfortable?
29527What business is it of ours?''
29527What could I say but that I would remember, that I was not offended, but would be careful?
29527What do these monks do?
29527What do they care for justice?
29527What do women care for laws of righteousness?
29527What do you say to comfort him that his last moments may be peace?
29527What does it matter to us?''
29527What does it matter who the other person be?
29527What does my husband care that we were married by your law?
29527What for the everlasting sequences that govern the world?
29527What help did it give to its believers in their extremity?
29527What if the people make merry, too, if they make their holy days into holidays, is that any harm?
29527What is change but the death of the present?
29527What is so terrible as a war of religion?
29527What made you wait so long?''
29527What makes you think that?''
29527What was Buddhism doing?
29527What would be the good of charms?''
29527What would the forest be without its thorns?
29527Whence, then, come their acts, for their acts seem to show that they hold riches to be a good thing?
29527Where was his help?
29527Where would be the use?
29527Who are more criminal than English boys?
29527Who can tell in this war?''
29527Who can tell?
29527Who could this woman be, he thought, to ask such a question?
29527Who gave that?
29527Whom was she beseeching?
29527Will Time never cease to drive us on and on?
29527Will not the sahib keep the paper?''
29527Will that bring peace?''
29527Will these lights_ never_ cease to flash to and fro?''
29527Wo n''t that be best?''
29527Would all people have done this?
29527Would any people, not firmly bound by their religion, put up with it all for a moment?
29527Would he be killed, or what?''
29527Would it have been any help to those I had left?''
29527Would it have been any help to those whom I had left?
29527Would it have brought to me any solace from my loneliness?
29527Would it have brought to me any solace from my loneliness?
29527Would not they involve all other men, all earth and heaven, in bottomless chaos, to save one heart they loved?
29527You may force or persuade him into an outer agreement with you, but what is the value of that?
29527but,''Are they man and wife?''
29527he said, shaking his head;''what could they do?''
29527or if evil so outnumbered the good deeds as to hide and overwhelm them, what then?
29527she would say,''why should I hurt it?
29527would not that alone make the girls dance well, make the audience enthusiastic?
14049A key?
14049A question or two? 14049 About Absalom, or about someone else?"
14049Absalom was to have got a gold lacquer bowl that you ordered from Mhtoon Pah?
14049And Heath, what did Heath say?
14049And I trust thy business hath prospered with thee?
14049And Joicey?
14049And besides Mr. Heath, was there anyone else who saw him?
14049And something of the same nature has occurred since?
14049And the Chinaman?
14049And the date?
14049And the little boy? 14049 And what is your idea?"
14049And yet you have to keep it secret?
14049Any news?
14049Anyhow, you saw Absalom?
14049Are these the deductions of one evening? 14049 Are you_ worried_ about it?"
14049Art thou bidden?
14049But is it likely that Hartley will ask me?
14049But when, and how? 14049 But you''ll stay for a bit?"
14049But_ why_,_ why_?
14049By the way, was n''t Absalom, old Mhtoon Pah''s assistant, once a dressing- boy or something in your establishment?
14049By the way,said Wilder carelessly,"was it ever discovered how that fellow Rydal got clear of the country?"
14049By the way,she said carelessly,"have you found that wretched little Absalom yet?
14049Ca n''t you drop it?
14049Can I help?
14049Can I speak to you for a moment?
14049Can you give me any opinion? 14049 Can you remember anything at all of what you were doing on the evening of July the twenty- ninth?"
14049Can you tell me when you saw him?
14049Can your boy look after me for a few days?
14049Canst thou stand by thyself?
14049Come, then,said the police officer abruptly,"who did you see?
14049Did Rydal''s disappearance affect you at all, personally?
14049Did he speak of Absalom?
14049Did you bring any cigars down?
14049Did you go down Paradise Street just after sunset?
14049Did you see him come back? 14049 Did you see him?"
14049Did your last job work out?
14049Do I?
14049Do you believe he was listening?
14049Do you happen to know that Mhtoon Pah was looking for a bowl of gold lacquer, and that he sent his boy Absalom here to get it?
14049Do you recall the evening of the twenty- ninth?
14049Do you suppose that he got away disguised?
14049Dost thou sell beautiful things, Leh Shin?
14049Evidence?
14049Forgive me for pelting you with questions, but did you see Mr. Heath that evening?
14049Hartley, impertinent?
14049Has he been long like this?
14049Has the man reappeared since?
14049He was away from the curio shop that night, you say?
14049He was quite honest, I suppose?
14049Heath never explained anything?
14049How can you say that? 14049 How could I see him come back?"
14049How do I know it?
14049I assure you that I will, but even when I do, you see what a position the least publicity places me in?
14049I hope you have n''t been bored?
14049I suppose I was right?
14049I suppose you have n''t got the lacquer bowl since?
14049I understand,said Coryndon,"the warrant was issued about noon the same day?"
14049I will see what Mr. Hartley will do, but if you drag in my name or refer him to me you will do yourself no good, do you hear? 14049 I_ think_ not, but who can tell?
14049In what house am I to seek him, assistant of the widower and the childless?
14049Is anything the matter?
14049Is he a devil?
14049Is it not written that none may rise so high, or plunge so deep, that he does not follow the hidden path to the hidden end? 14049 Is it true that I can save you from that?"
14049Is my bath prepared, Shiraz? 14049 Is my bath ready, Shiraz?"
14049Is not the time ripe, O wise old man, is not the hour come when thou mayst go to the house of the white Sahib and demand a piece for closed lips?
14049Is the Sahib awake?
14049It strikes you, does n''t it?
14049Jewels, jewels? 14049 July the twenty- ninth?"
14049Knowest thou of the story of Shiraz, the Punjabi?
14049Leh Shin? 14049 May I come in?"
14049May I send in my card?
14049Mhtoon Pah is the man who has the curio shop?
14049Night after night have I stood outside his shop, but who may enter through a locked door? 14049 Not after this?"
14049Now, Mhtoon Pah, are you quite sure that it was Mr. Heath that you saw that evening?
14049Now, what_ are_ you trying to get out of me, Mr. Hartley? 14049 Oh, are you?"
14049Overdo what?
14049Paradise Street? 14049 Perhaps you remember seeing me?
14049Say? 14049 Shall I tell you why?
14049Shall you be away long, do you suppose?
14049So she is a friend of Hartley''s?
14049So thou art back, Mountain of Wisdom?
14049So thou hast news for me, unclean one? 14049 So thy devils have not yet caught thee and scalded thee with oil, or burned thee in quicklime?"
14049That means that you have cleared Heath?
14049That was early on the morning of July the twenty- ninth?
14049That was what she said?
14049The Padré Sahib is out?
14049Then that was July the twenty- ninth?
14049There is nothing the matter with you, is there, Joicey?
14049Thou art certain of this?
14049Thy friend is under the hand of devils?
14049Up to your mark, Hartley, or my own mark, or someone else''s mark? 14049 Was he not my friend, this monster of infamy?"
14049Was he with anyone when you saw him?
14049Was it in the nature of the evil works of the bad man, thy friend?
14049Was it the twenty- ninth?
14049Was the thief taken, O son of a Prophet?
14049Well,he said brusquely,"what''s this about Rydal?"
14049What am I to do with these things?
14049What are you pondering about, Mr. Hartley? 14049 What are you talking about?"
14049What business?
14049What can I do for you?
14049What did you say?
14049What evening? 14049 What happened then?"
14049What has come over you, Joicey; are you ill?
14049What has he been doing?
14049What have you got? 14049 What inquiries have you made?"
14049What is it, Leh Shin?
14049What is my life or my reputation set against the value of one living soul? 14049 What is thy message?"
14049What mark?
14049What now, Leh Shin?
14049What of thine own house by the river?
14049What saidst thou?
14049What were we saying?
14049What''s the matter, Joicey?
14049Where did you spring from, Hartley?
14049Where is he?
14049Where is my lacquer bowl, Mhtoon Pah?
14049Where shall I find Leh Shin?
14049Which shop?
14049Whither doth he send thee, unclean one?
14049Who can tell?
14049Who fries the mud fish when he may eat roast duck?
14049Who is going to call me?
14049Who saw Absalom last?
14049Who wants me?
14049Who wants me?
14049Who was the man?
14049Whoever I saw him with?
14049Why do you ask?
14049Why not?
14049Why should you be? 14049 Why should you say that I helped Rydal?"
14049Why the devil did n''t you raise the alarm?
14049Why the devil is he talking like this and looking like this?
14049Will he, I wonder?
14049Will you come and dine with us one night?
14049Will you pledge me your solemn word to keep this knowledge from anyone who asks?
14049Wise one, where are the jewels stolen by thy Master?
14049Wo n''t you come, too, Hartley?
14049Would you like a little stroll in the garden?
14049Wouldst thou ruin all at the end? 14049 You ask me_ that_, you devil?"
14049You attach no importance to him?
14049You can prove what you say, I suppose,said Hartley, speaking to Leh Shin,"and satisfy me that the boy Absalom was not here, and did not come here?"
14049You said that you had just finished a job?
14049You said that, Atkins?
14049You saw the Manager, and got what you wanted?
14049You''ll do that, Coryndon?
14049You''re Hartley''s globe- trotting acquaintance, are n''t you? 14049 You''re going to the Club, I suppose?"
14049You_ must_ have suspicions?
14049_ Inshallah, Huzoor_,murmured Shiraz, bowing his head,"what is the will of the Master?"
14049_ Seem_ to suppose,_ Thakin_?
14049Are you in any trouble yourself?"
14049Are you seeing ghosts or moon spirits?
14049But what do you mean, Mhtoon Pah?"
14049But where has Absalom gone to?"
14049By the way, do you think that Mr. Heath is quite well himself?"
14049Can I be sure that it is not in a dream that the Master speaks again?"
14049Could I go alone?"
14049Could you tell me the name, or would it be wrong of you?"
14049Did I say anything?
14049Did Mr. Heath tell you that he had seen me?"
14049Did he take my lacquer bowl with him?"
14049Did you see Absalom again?"
14049Did you, for instance, see the Christian boy, Absalom, Mhtoon Pah''s assistant?"
14049Do you know each other--?"
14049Do you sell lacquer in this shop?"
14049Does Hartley suspect you?
14049Does he question you?
14049Does he try to wring admissions out of you?"
14049Has he, too, been interrogated?"
14049Hast thou these things, Leh Shin?"
14049Have I not the tale of thy years written in the book of my mind?"
14049Have you seen the assistant of Leh Shin?"
14049He was in evening dress, and he explained that he had been detained owing to his hostess having been taken suddenly ill."Where is Rydal himself?"
14049Heath?"
14049Heath?"
14049Heath?"
14049Honestly, do n''t you really believe that I had a hand in putting him out of the way?"
14049I got to the appointed place by the river just after twilight had come on--""Were you seen by anyone?"
14049I have already told one man to- day that he was going mad; are you dreaming, man?
14049I hope that question does n''t mean that you are professionally interested in his past?"
14049I hope you did n''t want one, Hartley?
14049I''ve never known Mrs. Wilder very well, but she is an interesting woman; do n''t you think so, Heath?"
14049It gives you some idea of his percentage on sales, what?"
14049Jewels, didst thou say?
14049Joicey sprang up and called out hoarsely:"Who is it?"
14049Mr. Heath, I mean?"
14049No one had seen me actually with Rydal--""You are quite clear on that point?
14049Not even the other person you alluded to?"
14049Shall we go back into the house?"
14049Shall we go in?"
14049That does n''t give you much clue, does it?"
14049Thou art sure that lacquer is accursed to thine eyes, Leh Shin?
14049What link could bind life with life, when lives were divided by such yawning gulfs of space and class and race?
14049What reason have you for imagining that there has been foul play?"
14049What the devil does Hartley want to know?"
14049Where hast thou hidden the body of the boy who was the light of mine eyes, who was ever eager and honest in business?"
14049Who saw the boy besides yourself?"
14049Why did n''t you shout?"
14049Will you pardon me when you consider my motive?
14049Will you tell me exactly whom you saw on your way to the river house?"
14049Wo n''t do, d''you hear?"
14049XIX IN WHICH LEH SHIN WHISPERS A STORY INTO THE EAR OF SHIRAZ, THE PUNJABI; THE BURDEN OF WHICH IS:"HAVE I FOUND THEE, O MINE ENEMY?"
14049You are alone?"
14049You thought I could tell you something about poor Mr. Heath, did n''t you?
14049You would not do that willingly, I think?"
14049You, too, saw Absalom, and spoke to him?"
38306Ai n''t I your Fouché? 38306 All right; what shall it be?"
38306Am I,repeated Anthony,"head clerk of the district office or of the police office?"
38306And does this never happen to man?
38306And leave Pazobin?
38306And what were you doing in the garden? 38306 And why not?"
38306And you really think,inquired Jackson,"that this man is a sort of head centre?
38306And you?
38306Are they gone?
38306Are you coming?
38306Are you feeling very tired?
38306Are you going to stay here all night?
38306Are you sure of this?
38306Boy,said he,"where is the milk and the sugar?"
38306Come to meet us?
38306Did I not tell you to keep up with me?
38306Did n''t Mr. Hawkshawe call me a damfool?
38306Did you get a passage?
38306Did you give the letter? 38306 Did you mean what you said about going to Dagon?"
38306Do n''t you think that men are capable of it?
38306Do n''t you?
38306Do you know Florry Bullin?
38306Do you know what became of his impedimenta?
38306Do you know what has happened?
38306Does it?
38306Don''t-- what?
38306Everything is ready,he said;"shall we go?"
38306Halsa and Mr. Galbraith have n''t come in yet?
38306Halsa,he said-- his voice was very low and tender--"will you give me this?"
38306Have a game after this?
38306Have a sweet?
38306Have they gone?
38306He will be very heavy to carry to the boat, will he not, my children?
38306Here''tis,he said;"you''ll give it to Lizzie?"
38306Here, Mr. Pillay, ca n''t you add, eh? 38306 How are you, Mrs. Smalley?
38306How did you get caught?
38306How much do you want?
38306I am much interested-- and, sir, may I ask are you the happy man?
38306I suppose there is no way of clearing the fragrant old gentleman out?
38306I suppose,he asked,"you have no news of his unfortunate wi----?"
38306I wonder if he will come?
38306I,he said, somewhat irrelevantly,"am sure of my salvation; are you of yours?
38306Is all this true, girl?
38306Is n''t this an odd place?
38306Is she dead?
38306Is the fair Ruys asking you to dinner?
38306It''s very dusty there, Mr. Galbraith; do n''t you think you had better come on to the sidewalk?
38306Leave, Manuel?--do you mean to say you want to go?
38306Let me order my trap for you, or a pony, if you prefer to ride?
38306Ma Mie,said Hawkshawe,"would you be very sorry if I were to go away for a short time?"
38306Master have tiffin?
38306May I trouble you for a light?
38306May I?
38306Mr. Iyer,said he,"am I head clerk of the district office or head clerk of the police office, eh?
38306My God,he said,"can this be love?"
38306Now, what is it you want here?
38306Now,she said in a breath,"what do you want?
38306Of course,replied Halsa;"did you ever want anything else?"
38306Oh, God, have you no mercy?
38306Or to live for, do n''t you think? 38306 Remarkably good- looking, too, do n''t you think?"
38306Ruys, would you like to go home?
38306See,said Ma Mie, holding her arm to the light and displaying the splendour of the bracelet,"is it not beautiful, Hawkshawe?"
38306Shall I break it to her?
38306Tails curly enough?
38306Then you are not going to marry Aunty Halsa? 38306 Then you will be ready?"
38306Tom,she said,"what if all this should end badly?
38306Was it this that you meant to tell me?
38306Well,he said shortly,"so you''re glad to see me-- sure there is no mistake?"
38306What can be done? 38306 What did Jimmee say about Lizzie?"
38306What if Stephen is not dead?
38306What is it? 38306 What is it?"
38306What is it?
38306What is it?
38306What on earth is that?
38306What the devil does this all mean?
38306What will you do?
38306What''s the matter?
38306What''s the time, Phipson?
38306What_ are_ you doing, Ah- Geelong?
38306When had Hawkshawe any to sell? 38306 Where are you, Jackson?"
38306Where is my wife?
38306Where is the sahib?
38306Where''s Eddy?
38306Where''s my daughter?
38306Where? 38306 Which way are we going?"
38306Who are you? 38306 Who keeps the keys?
38306Who keeps the keys?
38306Why Smalley''s gratitude in particular?
38306Why not?
38306Why of course not?
38306Why should I be frightened? 38306 Why should it end badly?"
38306Why, little woman, what is the matter?
38306Why-- what is the matter? 38306 Why?"
38306Will he go?
38306Will there be service to- day?
38306Will you let it rest there?
38306Wot are you all looking at, eh? 38306 Yes, and the knight won, and the fair lady gave him a gage to wear, and perhaps----""Oh, never mind the perhaps-- she gave him her gage, did she?
38306Yes-- I''m Mr. Bullin; and I want to know what you''ve done with my daughter-- you and that blackguard Sarkies?
38306Yes-- where''s the boy? 38306 Yes; when I''m a man I''m going to marry you-- do you hear that?"
38306You do not regret?
38306You go away; you are not ill, are you? 38306 You know what I have written here?"
38306You surely do not think that Dr. Smalley will move to Dagon?
38306You think there is any danger?
38306You will not fail to let me know if there is any news of her?
38306You''re Jackson, I suppose? 38306 A devil is ever leaning over my shoulder, and---- Ma Mie, you traitress, where are you? 38306 A sob rose to his throat as he thought of this-- was he right? 38306 And, by George, there''s the_ nga- pe!_"The what?
38306Answer me, eh?"
38306Anthony''s face brightened up as he asked,"Did n''t Mr. Hawkshawe take money?"
38306Are you coming?"
38306Are you ill?"
38306Are you ready?"
38306Bah Hmoay will take you-- or shall I send for some of your people?
38306Bullin?"
38306But what faith could stand against the cruelty of his trial?
38306But what has he been doing to upset you?"
38306But what was that, seen through the gloom, that crinkled up the gnarled features of the skipper into a sour smile of amusement?
38306Ca n''t you sit still anyhow, like any other mortal?
38306Ca n''t you speak?
38306Did I not tell you that the steamer will come to- day?
38306Did not Armorel fling herself away on him?
38306Didst thou think, thou of the Waziri, that I would leave thee to die here?
38306Do you know where your footsteps lead you?
38306Do you remember me?
38306Do you think my heart is a stone?
38306Does not the Scripture say,''If thine eye offend thee, cast it out''?"
38306Faith-- had he not faith?
38306Galbraith?"
38306Had she acted rightly?
38306Have I not been faithful?
38306Have I not eaten the Sirkar''s salt?
38306Have we the men?"
38306Have you learned your chapter?"
38306Hawkshawe?"
38306He thought of the lesson his Master had taught in a case of terrible reality, and was he, a priest of the Gospel, to stop at less than this?
38306He took the note from Galbraith, and said--"Yessar-- master not ill?"
38306How can I be your sister?
38306How can I sit still?
38306How can they understand the greatest of all mysteries, which even we-- I say it with all deference-- do not understand?"
38306How had he not laboured?
38306How would a gage look on that?"
38306I can not picture a knight in a tweed suit-- can you?
38306I have served the Sirkar for thirty years, and was I going to neglect this?
38306I ought to have died, but I was spared for you, do n''t you see?
38306I presume even you will think that sufficient punishment?"
38306I suppose that story of your death was one of your trumped- up_ lies?_"Lamport laughed a little.
38306I wonder what the matter can be?
38306In the meantime what had become of Lamport?
38306Is it a fair price?"
38306Is it not a terrible thing for a man to bind a pure woman to him, knowing that she must find out things that tell her her idol has feet of clay?
38306Is it not done daily?
38306Is it not so?
38306Is it not so?"
38306Is the mare ready?
38306Is this a time to think of racing, when that young fool on the steamer yonder is come here with his new- fangled notions?
38306Jackson, old man, ca n''t you speak?"
38306Jackson?"
38306Leave ye issue to bee guessed At ye endynge of ye waye"-- As I laye a- wakynge,''twas soe she seemed to say--"Whatte and if it alle bee feynynge?
38306Look at that man in this book-- what do they call him?
38306Manuel shifted a clean white napkin from one hand to another, and asked,"Dinner good, sar----yyerything praper?"
38306Not about the glass bottles, I hope?"
38306Oh, God is very merciful, is he not?"
38306Oh, husband, can not you save him?"
38306Oh, what shall I do?
38306Our whole difficulty is money-- for when was a Burman rich?
38306Peregrine looked up as he said slowly:"Why not?
38306Pozendine?"
38306Serferez had regained his feet, and shouted out,"Who fired that shot?"
38306She crossed the room with light steps, and, laying her hand on his shoulder, asked in Burmese,"What is the matter?
38306Should he face or flee the temptation?
38306Smalley?"
38306Speak, ca n''t you?"
38306The stranger lit a cheroot, and, returning the box, inquired,"Come here often?"
38306The stranger paid up, and as he did so he remarked:"You play a very good game-- may I ask your name?"
38306There is a strong guard, I believe?"
38306This is my home, is it not?"
38306Was he not measuring the strength of his soul or will, as he would have called it, against the strength of his passion?
38306Was it for this you sent Loo- ga- lay for me?"
38306Was there any answer?"
38306Was this man-- this fiend who had deliberately allowed her to commit a crime-- worth the sacrifice?
38306What are two hours to me?
38306What did she give?"
38306What do you think?"
38306What do you want?"
38306What had he done that this awful misfortune should have come upon him?
38306What if Stephen Lamport should not be dead?
38306What if he had miscalculated his strength as he had done the road?
38306What is it, daughter?"
38306What shall I do?"
38306What was it you were going to tell me?
38306What would he not give to know that this peerless woman was his own?
38306What''er you stopping for?"
38306What, after all, if he was wrong in his thoughts of his strength?
38306When Hawkshawe had absorbed some of the flavour of the bitters, he asked,"How have you been amusing yourself since I left you-- office files?"
38306When are you going, child?"
38306Where can we speak?"
38306Where is Jackson?"
38306Where on earth are you?"
38306Wherefore lie?
38306Wherefore then shall I tell a lie?
38306Which way did he go?"
38306Which way had she gone?
38306Who attends to district roads?
38306Who drafts to commissioner and revises administration report?
38306Who makes tabular statements?
38306Who sees to cess collections, budget work, record and despatch, stamps and stationery, office routine and discipline, eh?
38306Who would do so, when it is so easy to sit in a canoe and ship silently along the ooze of the creeks?
38306Who writes notes on crops?
38306Who writes revenue report?
38306Who?
38306Who?
38306Who?
38306Why did he not try to win her back with soft words?
38306Why do n''t you get rid of the brute?
38306Why do n''t you hold yourself up?
38306Why do n''t you tell me all about Halsa?
38306Why should you go down to the level of the brute if you happen to live near him?"
38306Why, man,"and Hawkshawe rose and began to pace the room,"what have we got to live for in this infernal country?
38306Will it do?"
38306Will that suit?"
38306Will you never understand?"
38306Wonder how you''ll like sitting there ten hours a day?
38306Would n''t it be fun to give this letter to paw?"
38306You have money?"
38306You know the old trick--_sabe?_""And blowed the oof after,"laughed his companion.
38306You understand?
38306_ Ruys_.--Can I give back?
38306he inquired--"laff?"
38306he said;"do you know what the consequences of this will be?"
38306he said;"who says I am going to die?
38306must we crawl through this as well?"
38306said Hawkshawe-- his potations had evidently loosened his tongue--"don''t you?
38306what''s it now?"
45774''Had he no mark upon him?'' 45774 ''How did''ee get theer?''
45774''Is any other of you so grand as this?'' 45774 ''Where, where?''
45774''Who be you?'' 45774 ''You do n''t need mark of mouth, Sambo, I suppose?''
45774Albatrosses to wit? 45774 All alone, mother?"
45774And in_ that_ state? 45774 And you can forgive me?"
45774Answer to their names?
45774Are the guns loaded?
45774Are we not having rather a bad voyage, Wills? 45774 Are you alone?"
45774But does the English Government allow this?
45774But eggs?
45774But the doctor knew what he was doing, and when the place was well scrubbed,''What do''ee call_ that_?'' 45774 But what have we to give of that sort, Osborn?"
45774Can it be Ralph?
45774Child,--brave child? 45774 Could you not open some of that ginger which uncle brought home?
45774Did you ever see a spirit, Osborn?
45774Did you ever see the Flying Dutchman in these latitudes, Wills?
45774Do n''t Burmese babies get teeth?
45774Do n''t you think of these things when a storm comes while you are at sea?
45774Do they not make you nervous?
45774Do you anticipate such a thing?
45774Do you consider that there is any danger of our meeting it in the jungle?
45774Do you mean the cargo?
45774Do you really believe that? 45774 Do you really mean to tell me that you saw that yourself?"
45774Do you think there is anything in what the grandfather says, Kirke?
45774Do you think you can?
45774Even you? 45774 From the fire?
45774Has it any teeth yet?
45774Have you seen my three- foot rule? 45774 He is old, then?"
45774How I wish we could find anything which would rid us of these beastly things?
45774How far are we from land?
45774How is your patient, wifey?
45774How now, Rogers?
45774How would you like to be served so?
45774I suppose,said Denham,"that if we do not disturb him, either in eating or sleeping, he would take no notice of us?
45774I? 45774 If anything goes wrong with me,"resumed Kirke, after a few moments,"you will send word to my father, wo n''t you, Denham?
45774Is he a gentleman''s son, then?
45774Is he like me, too?
45774Is he safe?
45774Is it to warn them of our approach that they let our wheels make such a creaking? 45774 Is it usual for a gentleman to send his son to sea in the merchant service?"
45774Is it, Wills?
45774Is the boy safe?
45774Is there an English doctor there?
45774Is this plan of use, uncle? 45774 Is_ his_ hair like the jungle bushes?"
45774It was for ever,''Where is the old cabinet that did stand here?'' 45774 Now, Rogers,"said Mr. Gilchrist,"why waste time?
45774Only_ hope_, miss?
45774Shall we touch at the Cape? 45774 That is it, is it?"
45774The boy?
45774There is a lot of what they call tiger- grass here, zur,said Wills;"will it be safe when we know that there is one of those gentry near at hand?"
45774Uncle Sam? 45774 Upon_ me_, mother?
45774Was anyone hurt?
45774Was he not very sorry to hear about father?
45774We shall be pleased to do so, Mah----?
45774What are the Englishmen like, girl?
45774What are you about? 45774 What are you funking there for?
45774What are you in for?
45774What are you swabbing the deck for?
45774What beast''s footmarks are those?
45774What colour?
45774What could that have to do with it, Wills? 45774 What did the fellow tie that bunch of plantains up to the front of the gharrie for?"
45774What did you think about while you stood there all that time?
45774What do you mean?
45774What ground is there for supposing such a thing?
45774What have you there?
45774What is all the excitement about?
45774What is it, mother?
45774What is it, my dear?
45774What is it, sir?
45774What is that untidy ayah of yours about, to leave your things scattered on the ground like this?
45774What is that?
45774What should I do without you, love?
45774What sort of creature is that?
45774What''s the use?
45774Where are all the others?
45774Where are the dacoits''heads?
45774Where is Miss Sunshine?
45774Where is that hose?
45774Where is the boy?
45774Where was that?
45774Where''s Agnes? 45774 Where''s Maria?"
45774Who volunteers?
45774Who?
45774Why are you not doing your own work, Kirke? 45774 Why should we destroy our houses?"
45774Why, man, what good would that be so far to sea? 45774 Why, my good fellow, what can be going to happen now?"
45774Will the royal selfs lords be good enough to join the feast?
45774Will you not make for Diamond Island, sir?
45774Would you like me to pray with you for his safety?
45774Yes, madam?
45774You Cornishmen are always superstitious, are n''t you?
45774You are sure?
45774You do n''t think that she will faint too, do you?
45774Zur?
45774_ You_ fierce and passionate?
45774''Cockroaches on my shirt?
45774''Is there anything wrong about me?''
45774''It is a pretty face, is it not?''
45774''It is sad, Miss Denham, is it not?
45774''What did''ee do it with?''
45774''What has become of the gamekeeper''s boy, Jack?''
45774A few more murmurs, then all was still again; but, was he mistaken?
45774A fowl to roast?
45774And Ralph?"
45774And how did Denham arrive there, and in such a condition?
45774And must we be deafened by those ugly square bells tied to the buffaloes''throats?"
45774And what must he do now?
45774And who else?
45774Any vegetables?"
45774Are they pretty?"
45774Are we safe here?"
45774Brudenel?"
45774Burmese?
45774But what was this?
45774But why had he not returned?
45774But would He pardon?--could He pardon?
45774But would it ever go home?
45774But, after that, what?
45774CHAPTER IV THE RAFT What were the occupants of the boats to do?
45774Ca n''t you smell the stinking stuff on the breeze?
45774Can I alter it and put it right?"
45774Can not we oil them, or something, to stop it?
45774Can not we send word to Rangoon?"
45774Can not you get help from any neighbours strong enough to protect you?
45774Can_ you_ feed me, clothe me, save me, take me to my friends, do_ anything_ for me?"
45774Come, then, if God so made the grass of the field, shall He not much more care for you, oh ye of little faith?"
45774Could he tie them together by means of the cord- like lianas which bound the jungle so closely together into impenetrable masses?
45774Could it have been expected?
45774Could no scout be sent to any British police- station, to tell them of our need and beg assistance?
45774Could you not take baby for an hour?
45774Did he bear a charmed life?
45774Did he inherit it in his blood?
45774Did that mean that they were gone?
45774Did this mean that their last hour had arrived?
45774Did we slave and labour for our beautiful jewels simply to give them to the thief?
45774Did you do it?"
45774Did you ever hear it, Wills?"
45774Do n''t you know when a man has made up his mind?"
45774Do ships always have so much bad weather as we are meeting with?"
45774Do ye want chee- e- eps?"
45774Do you always keep them there?''
45774Do you believe in warnings and presentiments?"
45774Do you really think it would be good for mother?"
45774Do you understand me?"
45774Do you_ always_ have them upon your own person, my friend?''
45774Drowned?
45774Fled before God''s judgment- seat, to be for ever witnesses against him?
45774For how many days would it avail to keep life in them were they not picked up?
45774Gilchrist?"
45774Gilchrist?"
45774Had Ralph fallen a victim to these creatures?
45774Had any of them been trampled under foot by that mad elephant, or devoured by the tigers?
45774Had five guns really been able to kill six men?
45774Had he been injured?
45774Had he been the victim of other perils, and had the dacoit only found the watch in the jungle and appropriated it?
45774Had he trod upon a snake?
45774Had it taken that worst of all forms-- secret drinking?
45774Had poor Denham escaped the tiger, been spared from the fire, to fall a prey at last to a fellow- man?
45774Had some other poisonous reptile or insect attacked him?
45774Had that telegram anything to do with it?"
45774Had the madness broken out in his son?
45774Had the uncertain light deceived him?
45774Has anything been heard of the boat, sir?"
45774Have we weapons at hand?
45774Have you been hiding there all this time, while we others have been fighting for you?"
45774Have you no pleasanter or really beautiful things about which to tell us?"
45774He believed his last moment was come, when-- what sound met his ear?
45774He knew that he must regain the main stream of the Salween River, up the eastern bank of which his party had come; but where was the Salween?
45774He knew what his sister had suffered from her husband''s conduct; was the same thing to begin all over again in the person of her son?
45774He must sit there till he died; what else remained for him to do?
45774Hour passed after hour in this manner, but yet surely it could not be daylight already?
45774How can I believe you again?"
45774How can you ask me, Agnes?"
45774How can you talk so?
45774How can you tell for what your Master wants you?
45774How could he meet it?
45774How long do you reckon it will be before the harvest will be ready?"
45774How old are you now?"
45774How shall you know whether it is the man- eater if we should be so unlucky as to fall across it?"
45774How then could he proceed?
45774How were you saved?"
45774How?"
45774I believe,"continued she, with a smile,"that I am expressing myself badly, like an ignorant girl, but perhaps you understand what I mean?"
45774If folks lend, spend, and give, do not other folks receive?"
45774If his crop fails, why should another man have more than he wants?
45774If this is the end of my short life, am I fit to go before Thee on Thy judgment throne, and confidently crave for mercy?
45774If we''nothing say to him, he''ll nothing say to me,''eh?"
45774Is it necessary to give my answer now, this evening, or may I sleep upon it?"
45774Is it possible?"
45774Is there no English station within reach?
45774It could never be the gallop of horses''feet-- many horses, tearing madly along the forest path?
45774It was like the reflection, upon the sky, of a mighty fire,--but where was the fire?
45774It was not like the dawn, it was not in the right place,--but what could it be?
45774Just then the doctor came in, and''What are you saying?''
45774Kershaw?"
45774Kershaw?"
45774Kershaw?''
45774Kirke had received no lessons, gained no experience, what could he do?
45774Men?
45774Mr. Gilchrist-- Wills-- Osborn-- why did none of them come?
45774Now, there, do n''t you see something come out from behind it?"
45774Old enough to be of some use and good, are you not?"
45774Shall I talk to her and find out all about it?"
45774Shall we see the Table Mountain, sir, do you think?"
45774Some of them remembered now that the discharge of a gun had been heard afterwards up this defile; but why had the boy not returned?
45774Sudden inspiration seized upon Osborn,"Does he sing like this?"
45774That would be a very bitter pill to him,--must it be swallowed?
45774The clear whistle of some night- bird was heard and answered from a neighbouring thicket,"Did you do it?
45774The night was very dark,--was it the looming storm or the furnace beneath them which made the air so oppressive and close?
45774The plants seemed to point yet more directly to the stranger being identical with Denham, but who could"Yamie"be?
45774The stream was narrow; his raft must be no wider than necessary,--but what ought its length to be?
45774Then a lull came,--were they out of the line of the cyclone?
45774This girl says that there are young Englishmen in the village, is it possible that one could be our dear Ralph?
45774Was it any good to pray?--did God hear him?
45774Was it of any use to wait, to search further for Ralph?
45774Was it only a dream, or a dream- like fancy then, or did he really hear the faint ripple of flowing water?
45774Was it so?
45774Was it wise to wait longer before embarking in them?
45774Was that dear brave boy lying scorched and blackened by the jungle flame, or torn limb from limb by the tiger?
45774Was that smiling face cold and set in death already?
45774Was the absence of the mother from her cubs due to the destruction of the poor young fellow?
45774Was the fellow even venturing to bring it in for the reward, and could he have told more of the gallant lad''s fate?
45774Was there a God of love and mercy at all, when he was beaten back at every point like this, however bravely he tried to bear up against misfortune?
45774Were they never to see God''s light of day again, or look once more over the fair expanse of sea and sky?
45774Were they to be drowned in this awful darkness, like rats in a hole?
45774Were those pleasant eyes closed for ever, those jocund lips pale and grim?
45774What can he have in that handkerchief?"
45774What could he be doing?
45774What could this mean except one thing?
45774What did it mean?
45774What did this mean?
45774What did you say they are called, my dear?"
45774What had become of him?
45774What had become of the boy?
45774What had happened to him?
45774What had he done with his stronger mind, his superior talents?
45774What had they expected that they snapped so eagerly at the pail?
45774What have I done so wicked as to merit this?
45774What have you done to yourself?
45774What is here?"
45774What is this terrible figure advancing?
45774What other family has she, Rogers?"
45774What shall I bring?
45774What was it?
45774What was that red glow upon the sky to the eastward?
45774What was that something glittering brightly between the trees?
45774What were they devouring?
45774What were they doing?
45774What were those parti- coloured figures at the foot of the tree where his garments hung?
45774What would be the end of it all?
45774What would become of them?
45774What''s the fellow doing?"
45774When did the_ Pelican_ come in, mother?
45774Where are the little ones?
45774Where have you been?
45774Where is the girl?
45774Where should a European go if he did escape?
45774Where was he now?
45774Where was he now?
45774Where was he?
45774Where were they?
45774Where?
45774Where?''
45774Who could say now?
45774Who do you mean, paya?"
45774Why did they not come to seek him?
45774Why should that bring bad luck?"
45774Will they be content with one sledge full if they are down upon us, Poh Pyin?
45774Will you do it for me, Wills?"
45774Will you not take my part?"
45774Wo n''t they?"
45774Would God answer his supplications?
45774Would any such exist after so fierce a flame had swept over it?
45774Would it be necessary to give himself up to English justice, and to permit the law to take its way with him for his attempt to lose the raft?
45774Would the tardy day never begin to break?
45774Would they send him back to the Andamans, to herd with those half- savage convicts, mutineers from Delhi, the scum of Rangoon?
45774Would they shoot him, or hang him, or flog him?
45774Would you like to come up for a bit and see the waves for yourself now?"
45774Would you mind stepping as far as the shops, and bringing in something which we could get ready in time?"
45774You do n''t want to fatten them, do ye?"
45774You do not want to shoot one, do you, and share the fate of the Ancient Mariner?"
45774You may reckon upon me; but what can I do?"
45774You may see them by the dozen off shore, but how do you propose to make one here?"
45774You will keep him safe, wo n''t you, and bring him back unhurt?"
45774_ Not dacoits?_ But what else could they be?
45774_ Not dacoits?_ But what else could they be?
45774are you a convict?"
45774called out the sailor in Cornish accents,"whither so fast?"
45774cried he,"was it Sunshine, the little maid whom we missed?"
45774cried she, in pretty dismay,"what can be done?
45774did his eyes, unaccustomed to judge of objects in the darkness, deceive him, or were they farther from the boat than before?
45774he cried aloud,"have I deserved this?
45774how overcome it?
45774that''s it, is it?"
45774the boy apprentice?"
