6457 | ( 187) A little at a loss what to say, she gently stammered,M''ami,--le-- le premier Consul, ne vient- il pas? |

6457 | Ay,quoth I,"has not he made you all ashamed of''em? |
6457 | But he will bring out something else? |
6457 | But here, I mean? |
6457 | But they may be a little better, or a little worse,he answered,"but still, if they are not like somebody, how can they play their parts?" |
6457 | But where,cried he,"is Hetty? |
6457 | But why,I cried, recollecting myself,"should I speak French, when your royal highness knows English so well?" |
6457 | But you do n''t imagine,answered she, laughing,"we came over from England to see you ci- devants? |

6457 | My courage? |
6457 | O � est votre mari? |
6457 | Oui, mon ami,"And-- was it quite dark? |
6457 | Pourquoi le quittez- vous? 6457 Qui est- il?" |
6457 | Qui? |

6457 | ''-''''Is he agreeable to you, M. de Maubourg?'' |
6457 | ( 182)"Have you seen the first Consul, madam?" |
6457 | ( 187)"What is the matter?" |
6457 | ( 188)"M''ami, the-- the first Consul, is he not coming?" |
6457 | ( 191) Could any inference be clearer? |
6457 | ( 218)"Who are you? |
6457 | ( 219)"You are English?" |
6457 | ( 221)"You do not think proper to follow me, then?" |
6457 | ( 229) Where did--- hear her a whole evening? |
6457 | ( 23) and is that all?--Does she forget that she has spoke to me? |
6457 | ( 24)"Perhaps I am indiscreet?" |
6457 | ( 25)"But, mademoiselle-- after all-- the king-- is he quite cured?" |
6457 | ( 251)"May I keep the book you sent me?" |

6457 | .. Did the wood look very beautiful? |
6457 | A mother whom she looks up to and doats upon-- a sister whom she so fondly loves-- how shall they be replaced? |
6457 | A''n''t you? |
6457 | After a little pause,"Mais est- ce qu''une femme est en tutelle pour la vie dans ce pays?" |
6457 | Am I not doing what I most desire upon earth-- remaining by your side? |
6457 | And can he want to keep them all? |
6457 | And do you, then, measure my regard of heart by my remissness of hand? |
6457 | And even if he endure the perpetual tutoring, will not she sicken of her victories ere he wearies of his defeats? |
6457 | And how does horticulture thrive? |
6457 | And how ventures M. de Chauvelin to transmit such a proposal? |
6457 | And how was I to get thither? |
6457 | And how? |
6457 | And what had I done with this son? |
6457 | And where? |
6457 | And which of these characters is true? |
6457 | And will Alexander be fit or willing to live under the eye, which he will regard as living under the subjection, of his wife''s relations? |
6457 | Anything capable of understanding her?" |
6457 | Are you-- are you--[looking with strong expression to discover her answer] writing anything?" |
6457 | As to my engagements;--when should I finish, should I tell all that have been made or proposed, even in the short space of a single week? |
6457 | At length he came directly up to me and Herschel, and the first question his majesty asked me was,--"How does Astronomy go on?" |
6457 | Bonaparte interrupted him and said,''Is the young man agreeable to your daughter?'' |
6457 | Burney?" |
6457 | But could any permanent amendment ensue, from working upon his errors only through his passions? |
6457 | But though so sluggish to learn, I was always observant: do you remember Mr. Seaton''s denominating me, at fifteen,"the silent, observant Miss Fanny"? |
6457 | But when, in the course of the day, something broke from me of my reverence at his heavenly resignation,"R � sign �?" |
6457 | But who, also, in circumstances so awful, could require the exhortation of a priest or the example of a congregation, to stimulate devotion? |
6457 | But why go back to my grief? |
6457 | But why say damped, when it is only their unreasonable expectations that are disappointed? |
6457 | But will four months fit him for beginning such a trial? |
6457 | Can I still hope, my dear friend, for that patient partiality which will await my tardy answer ere it judges my irksome silence? |
6457 | Can life, he often says, he more innocent than ours, or happiness more inoffensive? |
6457 | Can there be injustice more flagrant? |
6457 | Can you imagine anything more amiable than this pleasure in giving pleasure? |
6457 | Could anything More sweetly mark the real kindness of the queen than this remembrance of my fondness for plays? |
6457 | Did I breathe then? |
6457 | Did I tell you that I sent a copy of those letters to M. de Lafayette? |
6457 | Do n''t you think it very extraordinary that he should not himself desire to see Mrs. Damer? |
6457 | Do you ever see any of the friends we used to live among? |
6457 | Do you know anything of a certain young lady, who eludes all my inquiries, famous for having eight sisters, all of uncommon talents? |
6457 | Do you not know him well, my Susan, by this opening rodomontade? |
6457 | Do you suppose I do not often-- often-- often think who would like, and be fittest to be the bearer to you of these honours? |
6457 | Had you my letter from Tr � ves? |
6457 | Has M. d''Arblay ever been at Toulon? |
6457 | Has he any particular name for you?" |
6457 | Have you ever seen him since this fatality in his family? |
6457 | He laughed and inquired who corrected my proofs? |
6457 | He listened with much interest and pleasure, and said,"Mais, ne pourroit- on pas faire ce petit voyage- l? |
6457 | He looked at me with sweetness inexpressible, and pathetically said,"Qui?" |
6457 | He stopped, but I saw he meant"Who shall return this for you?" |
6457 | He would not then come; for what, he said, was a beautiful city to him who could not look at it? |
6457 | His restlessness still interrupting all attention, in defiance of my earnest whispers for quietness, she now said,"Perhaps he is hungry?" |
6457 | How are your own politics upon that point? |
6457 | How can she know what a child is thinking of before it can speak?" |
6457 | How do you do, Ernest?" |
6457 | How long,"he adds,"have you been at it?" |
6457 | How should he?--especially a revolutionnaire? |
6457 | How tall is he?--how old is he?--Is he fat or thin?--is he like you or M. d''Arblay? |
6457 | However, be only grumbled out,"Qu''est- ce que c''est, donc? |
6457 | I always answered,"What courage? |
6457 | I asked him if he was not proud of being so kindly noticed by the adjutant- general of M. Lafayette? |
6457 | I heard a gentleman''s voice from the next box call softly to Miss Barbara Planta,"Who is that lady?" |
6457 | I hope I have gained a smile from you by my disclosure that I lost my journal time for my usual post- day by successive dissipation? |
6457 | I hope your last club was more congenial? |
6457 | I like well the idea of giving no name at all,-why should not I have my mystery as well as"Udolpho? |
6457 | I preserved, therefore, my taciturnity, till, tired of her own, she gently repeated,"Puis- je le garder, cette copie que vous m''avez envoy �?" |
6457 | I remember, in playing-at questions and commands, when I was thirteen, being asked when I intended to marry? |
6457 | If he can say that, what must I be not to echo it? |
6457 | In such a condition, who can wonder to hear that, a very few miles from Leipzic, he expired? |
6457 | Is it not to be feared that as they, the passions, subside, the errors would all peep up again? |
6457 | Is it that the regard she appeared to conceive for me in England was not only sincere but constant? |
6457 | Is jenny capable of such a mounting journey? |
6457 | Lafayette? |
6457 | Lafayette?" |
6457 | Madame de Stael whispered me,"How do you like him?" |
6457 | Madame de la Ch � tre made a speech to the same effect,"Et quel jour, par exemple,"said M. de Narbonne,"feroit wieux qu''aujourd''hui? |
6457 | Mais-- Vous vous rendez, n''est- ce- pas? |
6457 | Mickleham, February 29, 1793 Have you not begun, dearest sir, to give me up as a lost sheep? |
6457 | Mr Cantab? |
6457 | Mr. Hay had lost his air of satisfaction and complacency, Mr. Tudor merely inquired whether he should come again? |
6457 | Mr. P. And can you read your book, You Sweet little fellow? |
6457 | Mr. P. And do you run about here in this pleasant place all day long? |
6457 | Need I say more?") |
6457 | Not very bad English that? |
6457 | O my dearest friend,- Can the intelligence I have most desired come to me in a form that forbids my joy at it? |
6457 | Oh, mon ami, ought we not rather to unite in comforting each other by sustaining ourselves? |
6457 | On, therefore, I again forced myself, and with tolerable composure I said,"Je n''ai rien, monsieur, je crois, faire ici? |
6457 | Or was it from a yet greater fear of malignant cruelty awakened by the very name of his successor, Savary, Duke of Rovigo? |
6457 | Or wherefore his characters thus without fault? |
6457 | Or will it only do to be printed at the expense of the acting ladies, and given gratis? |
6457 | Our next and last interruption, I think, was from a very gentle tap at the door, and a"May I come in?" |
6457 | Page 137 whose can withstand it? |
6457 | Page 143"How is your little boy?" |
6457 | Page 156"Pray,"cried she,"if it is not impertinent, may I ask to what religion you shall bring up your son?" |
6457 | Particulars I have now no room for; but when in about half an hour, she said,"How long do you intend to stay here, Madame d''Arblay?" |
6457 | Pitt? |
6457 | Poor Mrs. Byron, who used to inhabit it, would have enjoyed her grandson''s(338) reputation, would not she? |
6457 | Pray( smiling) what will he bring out next?" |
6457 | Qu''en penses tu?" |
6457 | Shall I apologise for this wordy explanation? |
6457 | She asked me If you would accompany Mrs. Locke back into the country? |
6457 | She asked me, archly, whether I was not fatigued by coming to the pump- room so early? |
6457 | She then a little embarrassed me by an inquiry"why Major Phillips went to Ireland?" |
6457 | Should that be proved, what compensation will be sufficient for repairing his confinement? |
6457 | Should we not have done so mutually, if the contagious fever at Cambridge had carried him off? |
6457 | Tell, tell me, my beloved ami, where, when you would have me remove? |
6457 | The death of one of these so untimely departed favourites, how will Madame de Stael support? |
6457 | The door now again opened, and another royal personage put in his head- and upon the princess saying,"How d''ye do, William?" |
6457 | The greater part of our income[ Fanny''s pension] is anything but certain, yet what should we do if that were to fail us? |
6457 | The king, then, looking at Herschel, as who would say,"How is it?" |
6457 | The queen now imagined he did not know whom she meant, and said,"What does he call you? |
6457 | Then, putting his arms a- kimbo, he said, in lower, but more, taunting accents,"Vous ne le jugez donc pas propos de me suivre?" |
6457 | Tide? |
6457 | Unhappy myself everywhere, why not leave unshackled his dawning life? |
6457 | Voulez- vous bien pr � senter tous mes complimens au capitaine? |
6457 | Vous le voyez bien?" |
6457 | Was this from the real merit he had shown in his police capacity? |
6457 | Well, but how does your Petit and pretty monsieur do? |
6457 | What censure can ever so much hurt as such compensation can heal? |
6457 | What do you think of it?" |
6457 | What does he do in Ireland? |
6457 | What is become of the campaign? |
6457 | What is there there to merit her? |
6457 | What kind of animals have you left her with? |
6457 | What must I be, if not far more than Page 276 contented? |
6457 | What must be the feelings at the queen''s house? |
6457 | What news from Captain phillip? |
6457 | What will you have conjectured? |
6457 | What would she say should evidence be imperfect or wanting, and they should acquit her? |
6457 | What?" |
6457 | When the servants were gone, the duke asked me if anybody might write a letter to the king? |
6457 | When will some occasion offer to bring me back- not my revenge, but my first and most coveted satisfaction? |
6457 | When will the work come out for which she was, she says, chass � e de la France? |
6457 | Who, however, could have expected such prompt admission? |
6457 | Why did you not bring her with you? |
6457 | Why does he not burn half? |
6457 | Why, Fanny, what are you about, and where are you? |
6457 | Why, then, make myself black bile to disturb me further? |
6457 | Will it make you double your diligence for what is not at an end? |
6457 | Will you take a little cell under our rustic roof, and fare as we fare? |
6457 | Would I not have left even Kin to have followed you and your fate even to St. Domingo? |
6457 | Would you have me make any inquiry if it be irreversible?'' |
6457 | Yet how can that be? |
6457 | You ask who Page 452 named him preacher for the 5th Sunday in Lent: How could I omit telling you''twas the Bishop of London himself? |
6457 | and for what ought we to prepare? |
6457 | and in an evening? |
6457 | and why do you think him SO very bad? |
6457 | are both parties incapacitated from beginning? |
6457 | connaisseZ- vous Sidney? |
6457 | cried the king archly,"and what other characters have you seized?" |
6457 | cried the king;"what is become of him?" |
6457 | d''Arblay?" |
6457 | d''Arblay?" |
6457 | do you know Sidney? |
6457 | everybody has left off even corsets!--Shift sleeves? |
6457 | exclaimed I,"le premier Consul?" |
6457 | exclaimed I,"the first Consul?" |
6457 | exclaimed he,"vous � tes Anglaise? |
6457 | hey, mon petit monsieur? |
6457 | hey? |
6457 | how will she be content to be a monitress, where she will find everything in useful life to teach, and nothing in return to learn? |
6457 | it matters not; but who knew that circumstance when they played truant? |
6457 | let us speak upon a grave subject: do I see you that morning? |
6457 | no one wears more than one!-- Stays? |
6457 | or is each waiting a happy moment to strike some definitive stroke? |
6457 | or only form the skeleton?" |
6457 | she cried:"I am vastly glad to see you again and how does your little boy do?" |
6457 | tell to me, what will you?" |
6457 | that she has heard me too?" |
6457 | vous avez connu cette coquine de Brulard? |
6457 | what does he go there for?" |
6457 | what ought to be held more sacred where it is innocent-- what ought so little to risk any unnecessary or premature concussion? |
6457 | what you say?" |
6457 | when do you come spend a large week in that house? |
6457 | when shall I get to Chelsea, and embrace again my beloved father? |
6457 | who can rejoice? |
6457 | who made it you, mamma, or little aunty?" |
6457 | why, how can he so encumber himself? |
6457 | with double the emphasis, repeated the young princess, now sitting down and taking him upon her knee;"and how does M. d''Arblay do?" |
6457 | you are really, then, well?--really in Paris?-- really without hurt or injury? |
6457 | you knew that infamous woman?" |
6042 | ( 232) He looked extremely provoked, and asked if I really meant to inform him I did not choose his company? 6042 ( 362) Need I say this was Madame de la, Fite? |
6042 | ( 368)PRAY, will you tell me,"said Mrs. Crewe, drily,"what you mean by the people? |
6042 | A comedy? |
6042 | A design upon me? |
6042 | A little, sir? |
6042 | A shake? |
6042 | Ah, ma''am-- is there no language but of words? 6042 Altered, is he?" |
6042 | And can he ever look pleasant? 6042 And can this man,"cried he, presently,"this man-- so gentle--- be guilty?" |
6042 | And can you,I cried, fixing him,"can you have so much compassion for one captive, and still have none for another?" |
6042 | And has he done it? |
6042 | And how, for heaven''s sake? |
6042 | And if it does,cried Mrs. Crewe,"what is it to us? |
6042 | And if you could so love him,cried I,"knowing him only in a general way, what would you have felt for him had you known him at Streatham?" |
6042 | And in the Little park? |
6042 | And is it essential,cried I,"that they should so run them through that nobody can understand them? |
6042 | And is there no dispensation? |
6042 | And now, poor Stanhope,cried the duke,"give another glass to poor Stanhope, d''ye hear?" |
6042 | And now,I continued,"shall I tell you, just in the same simple style, how I have been struck with the speakers and speeches I have yet heard?" |
6042 | And now,cried he, making us all sit down again,"where are my rascals of servants? |
6042 | And pray what was it? |
6042 | And pray, Mr. Turbulent, solve me, then, this difficulty; what choice has a poor female with whom she may converse? 6042 And pray, ma''am, what food have they in winter?" |
6042 | And pray,quoth I to James, when he told me this,"did you not say the honour of an audience?" |
6042 | And shall I tell you,I added,"something in which you had nearly been involved with him?" |
6042 | And was it my spinning? |
6042 | And what do you think of Miss Fuzilier? |
6042 | And what is it has saved you? |
6042 | And what was that? |
6042 | And what,cried he, laughing,"do you say to that notion now you see him?" |
6042 | And what,cried he,"has your father got, at last? |
6042 | And what,he asked,"shall you do?" |
6042 | And when? |
6042 | And where do you wait? |
6042 | And where? 6042 And who bin he?" |
6042 | And why not? |
6042 | And why,cried he,"do you speak so low? |
6042 | And why? |
6042 | And why? |
6042 | And will the chancellor speak to adjourn? |
6042 | And you wish,he cried,"to hear me? |
6042 | Are you approaching,I cried,"to hear my upbraidings?" |
6042 | Are you preparing,he cried,"for a campaign?" |
6042 | Are- are you feverish, ma''am? |
6042 | But better? |
6042 | But can you speak seriously,cried he,""when You say you know nothing of this business?" |
6042 | But did you see nothing-- remark nothing there? 6042 But do I use it?" |
6042 | But for what is your man to have it, when it is mine? |
6042 | But have you, yourself, ma''am, no curiosity-- no desire to see Colonel Wellbred? |
6042 | But how,cried I,"could you stand?" |
6042 | But how,cried he,"do you give up, without deigning to assign one reason for It"? |
6042 | But how,cried he,"do you stand the fiery trial of this Streatham book that is coming upon us?" |
6042 | But how,cried he,"have I incurred your upbraidings?" |
6042 | But in the Little park? |
6042 | But pray, ma''am,very gravely, how did it happen? |
6042 | But the real use of a fan,cried he,"if there is any, is it not-- to hide a particular blush that ought not to appear?" |
6042 | But what was it? |
6042 | But what,cried I,"was the occasion that drew you forth?" |
6042 | But will you not, at least, tell me your reasons for this conduct? |
6042 | But would he, if guilty, have waited its chance? 6042 But you have not seen much of him?" |
6042 | But, at least,I said,"I hope what I hear is not true, though I now grow afraid to ask?" |
6042 | But, surely you must have read the charges? |
6042 | But,cried he,"can you not bid somebody watch?" |
6042 | But: pray, now, Colonel Wellbred, tell me sincerely)--could you really make out what I was singing? |
6042 | By auction, Sir? 6042 By your father?" |
6042 | Can nobody,he cried,"let you know when they are coming?" |
6042 | Come hither, do you hear? |
6042 | Come, Miss Burney,cried the queen,"how are your spirits?-- How is your voice?" |
6042 | Corrigà © e? 6042 Could you imagine I should miss your conversation, your ease, your pleasantness, your gaiety, and take no notice of the loss?" |
6042 | Did I bring you here? |
6042 | Do you see Scott? |
6042 | Do you? |
6042 | Do you? |
6042 | Does Miss Burney know Latin? |
6042 | Entertained? |
6042 | Fanciful, Sir? |
6042 | Give me, then, your promise,--your solemn promise,--at least I may claim that? |
6042 | Good heaven, Mr. Turbulent, what can induce you to say this? |
6042 | Have I? |
6042 | Have they indeed? |
6042 | Have you not heard of yourself? |
6042 | Have you read two? |
6042 | Have you, then, still,cried he,"the same sentiments?" |
6042 | Have you,cried I,"heard all thus far of the defence, and are you still unmoved?" |
6042 | How can that be,cried he,"when you never contest any one point with her?" |
6042 | How do you do, Captain Burney? |
6042 | How do you do, sir? |
6042 | How is it all to be? |
6042 | How nervous I am? |
6042 | How should he,cried I,"look otherwise than unpleasant here?" |
6042 | How,he cried,"are You? |
6042 | How?--by not answering when spoken to? |
6042 | I can not,he said,"stop now, but I will come again; however, you know it, perhaps, already? |
6042 | I know it,cried he,"and what do I care?" |
6042 | I must fairly, then, own myself utterly ignorant upon this subject, and-- and-- may I go on? |
6042 | I thought he meant to leave us to- day? 6042 I understand,"quoth I,"there is a great dearth of abilities in this new Assembly; how then should there be any variety?" |
6042 | In disgrace? |
6042 | In my parlour? 6042 Indeed, what you have seen of him have you then so much approved?" |
6042 | Is he here, then? |
6042 | Is it not true? |
6042 | Is the defence to go on long, and are they to have any evidence; or how? |
6042 | Is the king, ma''am,he cried,"there? |
6042 | Is the queen here? |
6042 | Knock him on the head? |
6042 | Ma''am,cried he,"you have a brother in the service?" |
6042 | May I,I said,"go yet a little farther? |
6042 | May I,he cried,"come in?--and- for an hour? |
6042 | May one? |
6042 | Me? |
6042 | Me? |
6042 | Me?--no, not INo?--what, nothing?" |
6042 | Men have no fans,cried he,"and how do they do?" |
6042 | Mr. Turbulent,cried I,"will you be satisfied if I tell you it shall all blow over?" |
6042 | My help? |
6042 | My name? 6042 No offence, I hope, sir?" |
6042 | No, I hope not; I hope you have no wants about my miserable speaking? |
6042 | No, no, I do n''t mean that;--but why ca n''t we have our waitings month by month?--would not that be better? |
6042 | No? 6042 No? |
6042 | No? 6042 None of them, ma''am?" |
6042 | Not mean it? |
6042 | O How can I,cried she, in a voice of distress,"when already, as there is company here without me, Mrs. Schwellenberg has asked me what I came for?" |
6042 | O, Mr. Windham,cried I, surprised and pleased,"and can you be so liberal?" |
6042 | O,cried he, very unaffectedly,"upon the French Revolution?" |
6042 | Of leadder, sir?--of leadder? 6042 Once,"he answered,"I said a few words--""O when?" |
6042 | Perhaps,cried I,"your friends conclude you have music enough in your three months''waiting to satisfy you for all the year?" |
6042 | Pray, Mr. Turbulent,cried she, hastily,"what play are you to read to- night?" |
6042 | Pray, then, madam,cried he,"if French plays have the misfortune to displease you, what national plays have the honour Of your preference?" |
6042 | Shall I leave the poem,he cried,"or take it with me, in case there should be any leisure to go on with it to- morrow?" |
6042 | Shall I tell you,cried I,"a design I have been forming upon you?" |
6042 | Should you like to know him, ma''am? |
6042 | So then,cried Colonel Goldsworthy,"there are twenty good people in the world? |
6042 | So you meant, ma''am, to have had a breed of them,cried Colonel Goldsworthy;"a breed of young frogs? |
6042 | Surely,she cried,"you may wrap up, so as not to catch cold that once?" |
6042 | Tell me,I said,"and honestly,--should we be overturned in the boat while out at sea, what would prevent our being drowned?" |
6042 | The Lords, however, I suppose, must come? |
6042 | Then what business have they to get into my bed, ma''am? 6042 Then, sir,"very angrily,"how Come you by it?" |
6042 | Thraldom? |
6042 | To be sold? 6042 Unmoved?" |
6042 | Vell, sleeps he yet with you--Colonel Goldsworthy? |
6042 | Well, I think it will be, for I know they correspond; and what should he correspond with her for else? |
6042 | Well, Miss Burney,cried the first,"what say you to a governor- general of India now?" |
6042 | Well, and is that a good voice? |
6042 | Well, but pray, now, what do you call my voice? |
6042 | Well, but would not that be better than what it is now? 6042 Well, but,"cried he laughing,"may I find a fault? |
6042 | Well, ma''am, it''s all Colonel Wellbred, I dare say; so, suppose you and I were to take the law of him? |
6042 | Well, ma''am, what say you to all this? 6042 Well, well,"cried he,"that may be some compensation to you, but to us, to all others, what compensation is there for depriving you of time?" |
6042 | Well,he cried, in our way to the chair,"will there be war with Spain?" |
6042 | Well,quoth I, to make a little amends,"shall I tell you a compliment he paid you?" |
6042 | Well? |
6042 | What is it all to the shame and disgrace of convicted guilt? |
6042 | What news? |
6042 | What will you do, my good colonel? |
6042 | What you mean by going home? |
6042 | What''s the matter? 6042 What, in his foot?" |
6042 | What, ma''am!--won''t you give him a little tea? |
6042 | What, then, have not you heard-- how Much the king has talked? 6042 What?--hey?--How?" |
6042 | When did he come back? |
6042 | When the Duke of York came yesterday to dinner, he said almost immediately,''Pray, ma''am, what has Miss Burney left You for?'' 6042 When will he come to the point? |
6042 | When you do n''t not see them? 6042 Whether or not,"quoth I,"I am heartily glad he has not done it; why should he seem so dismal, so shut out from hope?" |
6042 | Who is it? |
6042 | Who is it? |
6042 | Who? |
6042 | Why then, ma''am, what business had it in my bed? 6042 Why, how must I do it?" |
6042 | Why, like when he was so cordial with you? 6042 Why, then, I''ll try myself-- is it so?" |
6042 | Will he stay on to- night, then, at Worcester? |
6042 | Will you give me leave to inquire,quoth I,"one thing? |
6042 | Will you, at least, promise I shall be present at the meet--? |
6042 | Yes, I''ll tell you,cried he; but again he stopped, and, hesitatingly, said,"You-- you wo n''t be angry?" |
6042 | Yes, Indeed; gentle even to humility--"Humility? 6042 Yes, Yes,"cried he, precipitately,"how else shall I go on? |
6042 | Yes, and who can wonder? 6042 Yes, ma''am, and I have been very much hurt by it: that is, if your majesty means anything relative to myself?" |
6042 | Yes, ma''am, upon my speaking,-but why did you keep Me so long in that painful suspense? |
6042 | Yes, you,--and for what, I say? |
6042 | Yes,I answered, shuddering at this new scene for her"should I tell her majesty your royal highness is here?" |
6042 | Yes,said he;"I was singing with Colonel Wellbred; and he said he was my second.--How did I do that song?" |
6042 | Yes-- but the shame, the disgrace of a flight? |
6042 | You are an Etonian, Mr. Bryant,said the king,"but pray, for what were you most famous at school?" |
6042 | You are certainly, then, afraid of him? |
6042 | You are going,she cried,"to church?--so, am I. I must run first to the inn: I suppose one-- may sit-- anywhere one pleases?" |
6042 | You are never, then( I said afterwards),"to speak here?" |
6042 | You believe not? |
6042 | You conclude,cried he, looking very sharp,"I shall then be better steeled against that fatal candour?" |
6042 | You do n''t take it ill, I hope, sir? |
6042 | You do not, however, call that virtue, ma''am-- you do not call that the rule of right? |
6042 | You have? |
6042 | You think,cried he,"''tis bringing a fresh courser into the field of battle, just as every other is completely jaded?" |
6042 | You tired!--what have you done? 6042 You will come, however, to hear Burke? |
6042 | You-- you are not well, ma''am? |
6042 | Your majesty, sir, knows General Conway? 6042 ''A drunken man?'' 6042 ''Gone?'' 6042 ''La Coquette''is your royal highness''s taste? |
6042 | ''Left me?'' |
6042 | ''Tis indeed a dread event!--and how it may terminate who can say? |
6042 | ''What do you put them there for?'' |
6042 | ''What for? |
6042 | ''Yes, it''s at full length in all the newspapers: is not she gone?'' |
6042 | ''Yes, they say she''s gone; pray what''s the reason?'' |
6042 | ( 283)"Cui Bono? |
6042 | ( 314) In the evening, Lord Courtown, opening my parlour door, called out,"May one come in?" |
6042 | ( 336) But is it possible, sir, that your daughter has no holidays? |
6042 | ( 362)"Is it possible? |
6042 | --And who will repine at that? |
6042 | --Must I teach it you,,--teach it to Miss Burney who speaks, who understands it so well?--who is never silent, and never can b silent?" |
6042 | A little while after,--"Did he go away from you early?" |
6042 | A lively"How d''ye do, Miss Burney? |
6042 | After a short vindication of his friends, he said,"You have never heard Pitt? |
6042 | After some general talk,"When, ma''am,"he said,"am I to have the honour of introducing Colonel Wellbred to you?" |
6042 | After such averseness to a meeting-- such struggles to avoid him; what am I to think of the sincerity of that pretended reluctance?" |
6042 | Afterwards he asked what his coat was, whether blue Or purple; and said,"is it not customary for a prisoner to come black?" |
6042 | Again a little ashamed of herself, she added, rather more civilly,"For what should you have that trouble?" |
6042 | Almost breathless now with amaze, I could hardly cry,"Do I?" |
6042 | Am I so happy? |
6042 | And have you heard nothing more?" |
6042 | And is it not a curious scene? |
6042 | And some time after the queen could not forbear saying,"I hope, Miss Burney, YOU minded the epilogue the other night?" |
6042 | And then came his heroic old homage to the poor eyebrows vehemently finishing with,"Do you, can you affect to know no language but speech?" |
6042 | And then, fixing her with the most provoking eyes,"Est- ce la Danemarc?" |
6042 | And then, seeing her blush extremely, he clasped his hands, in high pretended confusion, Page 27 and hiding his head, called Out,"Que ferai- je? |
6042 | And what, ma''am, has Colonel Wellbred done to merit such a mortification?" |
6042 | Are we going to lose you?" |
6042 | Are you strong? |
6042 | At last he asked me if anybody was likely to come? |
6042 | At the door of my new old room who should I encounter but Mr. Stanhope? |
6042 | Been you acquainted?" |
6042 | Beurni que je vois? |
6042 | But I wonder what he says of everybody?" |
6042 | But he would give me no satisfaction; he only said"You refuse to receive him, ma''am?-- shall I go and tell him you refuse to receive him?" |
6042 | But just before we quitted the walks I was run after by a quick female step:--"Miss Burney, do n''t you know me? |
6042 | But still, why begin with Colonel Wellbred? |
6042 | But the heaviness of heart with which we began this journey, and the dreadful prognostics of the duration of misery to which it led us-- who can tell? |
6042 | But then a difficulty arose as to where? |
6042 | But this morning, while her hair was dressing, my royal Mistress suddenly said,"Did you see any body yesterday?" |
6042 | But what are they to think of this delay? |
6042 | But what will follow? |
6042 | But what will not prejudice and education inculcate? |
6042 | But what, you will say, has a tea- drinking party to do with a botanist, a man of science, a president of the Royal Society? |
6042 | But when the dinner came I was asked by the prà © sidente,"What for send you gentlemen to my parlour?" |
6042 | Ca n''t he come out?" |
6042 | Can I call her by another name, loving that name so long, so well, for her and her sake? |
6042 | Can Mr. Hastings appear to you such a monster? |
6042 | Can You then be so unnatural as to prosecute him with this eagerness?" |
6042 | Can you allow me entrance and room for that time?" |
6042 | Colonel Manners asked me if I had not heard something, very harmonious at church in the morning? |
6042 | Could I then be sorry, seeing this, to contribute my small mite towards clearing, at least, so very wide a mistake? |
6042 | Could even his prosecutors at that moment look on-- and not shudder at least, if they did not blush? |
6042 | Could he not have chosen any other place of residence?" |
6042 | Did she imagine I should answer"For your society, ma''am"? |
6042 | Did you ever hear a more perfectly satisfactory examination? |
6042 | Do I see my dear Miss Burney?" |
6042 | Do n''t you think so?" |
6042 | Do you not think, Miss Planta, the Prince of Wales and Prince William would have been quite enough for Miss Burney? |
6042 | Do you pretend to think there is no other?'' |
6042 | Do you really want rest?" |
6042 | Do you rob, sir? |
6042 | Do you take what is not your own, but others'', sir, because your man is frightened?" |
6042 | Do you think I heard such a testimony to my most revered and beloved departed friend unmoved? |
6042 | Do you think there can be any harm in giving it now?" |
6042 | Equally amazed and provoked, she disdainfully asked me what I knew of him? |
6042 | Fairly again; but, before he entered into any narrations he asked"DO you expect Sir Lucas?" |
6042 | Fairly again?" |
6042 | Fairly here to- night?" |
6042 | Fairly is here to- day? |
6042 | Fairly then asked Dr. Fisher what they were to do? |
6042 | Fairly was here, then?" |
6042 | Fairly will ever marry again?" |
6042 | Fairly''s designs with regard to his going away? |
6042 | Fairly''s voice, saying,"Is Miss Burney there? |
6042 | Fairly, laughing,"to dine with you?" |
6042 | Fairly, pointing to my work- box, said,"Shall I read a little to you?" |
6042 | Fairly,--perhaps to show himself superior to that little sally,--asked me whether he might write his letter in my room? |
6042 | Fairly;"they would have come to you, I promise you; and what could you have done-- what would have become of you?--with Prince William in particular? |
6042 | Fairly?" |
6042 | Fairly?" |
6042 | Fairly?" |
6042 | Fairly?--Why did he not tell it me?" |
6042 | For what not go to the gentlemen? |
6042 | For what wo n''t you not marry him?" |
6042 | Has he never tasted happiness, who so deeply drinks of sorrow? |
6042 | Hastings?" |
6042 | Have I mentioned them? |
6042 | Have you ever happened to see any of his writings?" |
6042 | Have you not heard he spares nobody?" |
6042 | He appeared to me in much perturbation, and I thought by his see- saw he was going to interrupt the speech: did you prevent him?" |
6042 | He asked me whether I had walked out in the morning? |
6042 | He assured me he was quite well-- as well as he had ever been in his life; and then inquired how I did, and how I went on? |
6042 | He comes upon his defence; ought he to look as if he gave himself up?" |
6042 | He did; adding,"Do you not like to sit here, where you can look down upon the several combatants before the battle?" |
6042 | He shrugged his shoulders, and walked away; and Mr. Smelt, smiling, said,"Will you give us any?" |
6042 | He stared a little, but I added with pretended dryness,"Do any of you that live down there in that prosecutor''s den ever sleep in your beds? |
6042 | He started, and cried with precipitancy,"Do you mean me?" |
6042 | He then asked me if I had heard Mr. Grey?" |
6042 | He then said,"Have you done with my little book?" |
6042 | He wanted to hear more particulars: I fancy the Willises had vaguely related some:"Did he not,"he cried,"promise to do something for you?" |
6042 | Heavens!--did they ever, unsummoned, quit it? |
6042 | Her majesty inquired of me if I had ever met with- Lady Hawke? |
6042 | Her majesty was much surprised to hear he was again out so unexpectedly, and asked if he thought of going to Gloucester? |
6042 | His face?" |
6042 | Hogentot?" |
6042 | How could this man be a soldier? |
6042 | How d''ye do?" |
6042 | How is that; have you it, as you Ought, at your own disposal?" |
6042 | How should he know anything Of the matter? |
6042 | How will you have it sold, Sir? |
6042 | I asked another good woman, who came in for some flour, if she had been of the party? |
6042 | I asked him if he thought a life of uselessness and of goodness the same thing? |
6042 | I asked if he could yet let them have beds to stay, or horses to proceed? |
6042 | I asked if she did not stay tea? |
6042 | I begged him to follow, and we were proceeding to the dressing- room, when I was stopped by a gentleman, who said,"Does the queen want anybody?" |
6042 | I both believed and applauded him so far; but why) Page 59 are either of them engaged in a prosecution so uncoloured by necessity? |
6042 | I could hardly stand this, and, to turn it off'', asked him if Mr. Hastings was to make his own defence? |
6042 | I could not help saying rather faintly,"Has he?" |
6042 | I courtsied, and wondered more, and then a surprised voice exclaimed,"Do n''t you know me?" |
6042 | I entreated to know why such a change? |
6042 | I heard it, however, again,--and the queen called out,"What is that?" |
6042 | I hope you are quite well now?" |
6042 | I inquired how it was all to end-- whether this reading was to continue incessantly, or any speaking was to follow it? |
6042 | I inquired if he pursued his musical studies, so happily begun with Colonel Wellbred? |
6042 | I inquired of Miss Herschel if she was still comet- hunting, or content now with the moon? |
6042 | I inquired of her if she had seen the royal family when they visited Devonshire? |
6042 | I ran off to another scene, and inquired how he had been amused abroad, and, in particular, at the National Assembly? |
6042 | I then mentioned how kindly he had taken his visit to him at Lichfield during a severe illness,"And he left you,"I said,"a book?" |
6042 | I ventured then to ask if yet I had been named? |
6042 | I was in my inner room, and called out,"Who''s there?" |
6042 | I was not quite prepared for the interrogatory, and feared she might next inquire when and where I had seen him? |
6042 | I was the other day at a place to see Stuart''s Athenian architecture, and whom do you think I met in the room?" |
6042 | Is it so? |
6042 | Is not this a charming trait of provincial popularity? |
6042 | Is not this a fit bishop''s wife? |
6042 | Is that a form of law?" |
6042 | Is this explicit? |
6042 | July 2.-What a stare was drawn from our new equerry(238) by Major Price''s gravely asking Mrs. Schwellenberg, after the health of her frogs? |
6042 | Let her tell her own story, and how will it harm us?" |
6042 | MAY"ONE"COME IN? |
6042 | Mademoiselle votre fille n''a- t- elle point de vacance? |
6042 | May I not justly call it so, different as it is to all the mode of life I have hitherto lived here, or alas I am in a way to live henceforward? |
6042 | Might one not think he was bred in the cloisters? |
6042 | Mr. Bunbury laughed, but declared he would not take the hint:"What,"cried he,"if I lose the beginning? |
6042 | Mr. Windham; would you wish me in future to take to nothing but lions? |
6042 | Mrs. Crewe hastily and alarmed interrupted him, to inquire what he meant, and what might ensue to Mr. Crewe? |
6042 | Must she not, in company as in dancing, take up with those Who choose to take up with her?" |
6042 | My dear ma''am, why do you stay?--it wo n''t do, ma''am! |
6042 | My dearest friends,- I have her majesty''s commands to inquire-- whether you have any of a certain breed of poultry? |
6042 | Need I more strongly than this mark the very rare pleasure I received from his conversation? |
6042 | O, who could succeed there? |
6042 | Page 18"But what can he say, ma''am? |
6042 | Page 254"Know what?" |
6042 | Page 28"Not till you have answered that question, ma''am''what country has plays to your royal highness''s taste?" |
6042 | Page 341 I found, however, they had already met, probably in the passage, for the queen added,"How melancholy he looks, does not he, princess royal?" |
6042 | Page 41"But how did I do it, Wellbred; for I never tried at it before?" |
6042 | Page 440"But do you not think Mr. Law spoke well?" |
6042 | Page 467"Pray, sir,"cried she,"what''s o''clock?" |
6042 | Page 58"Nay,"cried I,"could I well be quicker? |
6042 | Page 70"For what, then,"cried a stern voice behind me,"for What go you upstairs at all, when you do n''t drink coffee? |
6042 | Pray does he know any Of your secrets? |
6042 | Pray, have you all drunk his majesty''s health?" |
6042 | Shall I bring him to the Lodge to see you?" |
6042 | Shall I tell the colonel- to bring one?" |
6042 | She asked if he should not return to Brighthelmstone? |
6042 | She asked me a thousand questions of what I thought about Miss Fuzilier? |
6042 | She asked me, somewhat curiously, if I had seen any of my old friends? |
6042 | She called to her aid her religion, and without it what, indeed, must have become of her? |
6042 | She inquired of me if my father was still writing? |
6042 | She leaned her head forward, and in a most soft manner, said,"Miss Burney, how are you?" |
6042 | She soon inquired what answer had arrived from Mr. Francis? |
6042 | She spoke at once, and with infinite softness, asking me how I did after my journey? |
6042 | Shepherd?" |
6042 | Should I drive him from me, what would pay me, and how had he deserved it? |
6042 | Some time after he suddenly exclaimed,"Have you-- tell me-- have you, ma''am, never done what you repent?" |
6042 | Soon after, a voice just by my side, from the green benches, said,"Will Miss Burney allow me to renew my acquaintance with her?" |
6042 | That''s your calculation, is it?" |
6042 | The king asked me what had been doing at Westminster Hall? |
6042 | The moment I joined them, Mrs. Schwellenberg called out,--"Pray, Miss Berner, for what visit you the gentlemen?" |
6042 | Then he said he would not, and cried''Who are you?'' |
6042 | Then turning gaily to Mr. de Luc,"And you, Mr. de Luc,"he cried,"are not you, too, very glad to see Miss Beurni again?" |
6042 | Then, turning to me,"What am I to say, ma''am? |
6042 | There''s no such thing as pretending to measure, at such a distance as that?" |
6042 | They all exclaimed,"Is he here?" |
6042 | This morning, when I received my intelligence of the king from Dr. John Willis, I begged to know where I might walk in safety? |
6042 | Thither I went, and we embraced very cordially; but she a little made me stare by saying,"Do you sleep in your old bed?" |
6042 | Till you spoke could I know if you heeded it?" |
6042 | True, she must die at last, but who must not? |
6042 | Tuesday, June 19.-We were scarcely all arranged at tea when Colonel Manners eagerly said,"Pray, Mrs. Schwellenberg, have you lost anything?" |
6042 | Upon my vord!--how come you to do dat, sir? |
6042 | Was it not a curious scene? |
6042 | Was it not a most singular scene? |
6042 | Was it not a strange business? |
6042 | Was not all the world before him? |
6042 | Was not this agreeable? |
6042 | We all began race talk, but Mr. Turbulent, approaching very significantly, said,"Do you want a chair On the other side, ma''am? |
6042 | We all looked round;--but Colonel Goldsworthy broke forth aloud--"Civil, quotha?" |
6042 | We talked all these matters over more at length, till I was called away by an"How d''ye do, Miss Burney?" |
6042 | We then came back again to books, and he asked us if we had read a little poem called the"Shipwreck"? |
6042 | What are you all so slow for? |
6042 | What could I do? |
6042 | What is the news?" |
6042 | What say you to Mr. Turbulent now? |
6042 | What say you to now? |
6042 | What say you, then,"cried he,"to Pitt?" |
6042 | What was that for me?" |
6042 | What was the skeleton? |
6042 | What will you give me, fair ladies, for a copy of verse, written between the Queen of Great Britain and your most small little journalist? |
6042 | What, when it had my name upon it? |
6042 | When he had done he looked earnestly for my answer, but finding I made none, he said, with some concern,"You wo n''t think any more of it?" |
6042 | When he had written a few lines, he asked if I was very busy, or could help him? |
6042 | When she was gone, he took up the book, and said,"Shall I read some passages to you? |
6042 | When they retired, Mrs. Schwellenberg exclaimed,"For what not stay one night? |
6042 | When they were within a few yards of me, the king called out,"Why did you run away?" |
6042 | Where are all my rascals gone? |
6042 | While we were examining the noble pillars in the new room, I heard an exclamation of"Est- ce possible? |
6042 | Who could tell to what height the delirium might rise? |
6042 | Who has liberty, le peuple, or the mob? |
6042 | Who was so captivated as myself by that extraordinary man, till he would no longer suffer me to reverence the talents I must still ever admire? |
