15569Are you hungry, Griselda?
15569Are you ready? 15569 Aunt Grizzel,"said Griselda, after a few moments''silence,"was my grandmother quite young when she died?"
15569Aunt Grizzel,she said,"is n''t the cuckoo all right again?"

15569Cuckoo, cuckoo,she said softly,"could n''t you help us?"
15569Cuckoo, how_ could_ I? 15569 Cuckoo,"she exclaimed in a tone of reproach and disappointment,"where is Phil gone?

15569How ever did you get that, missie? 15569 How old are you?"
15569How shall I amuse you?
15569How will you know what o''clock it is, so as to come back in time to tell the next hour? 15569 How?"
15569How_ can_ you talk such nonsense, cuckoo?
15569I do n''t know your mother, so how can I tell how good she is?
15569I mean, have you come back to stay and cuckoo as usual and make my aunts happy again?
15569I thought you said it was the cuckoo that brought good luck?
15569I want to know, now that you''ve forgiven me for throwing the book at you, have you come back for good?
15569I wonder what''Miss Sybilla''_ was_ like?
15569I wonder when the cuckoo will have considered enough about my having no one to play with?
15569In the first place,said the cuckoo,"are you comfortable?"
15569Is he the king of the mandarins?
15569Is it just to look pretty, or why?
15569Is it true they''re all great, big_ suns_? 15569 Is it you, cuckoo?

15569It''s_ you_, is it?
15569May I come to see the cuckoo-- to watch for him coming out, sometimes?
15569May I smell it whenever I like, Aunt Grizzel?
15569Must I say good- bye to the king and all the people?
15569My grandmother died in the summer, when all the flowers were out; and she was buried in a pretty country place, was n''t she?
15569Now you can find your way home without scrambling through any more bushes, ca n''t you, Master Phil?
15569Of course it is, and why should n''t it be? 15569 Of course; why should n''t I?
15569Oh dear, why?
15569Oh, aunt,she exclaimed, stopping short half- way the journey to her mouth of a spoonful of bread and milk,"have you got a cuckoo in a cage?"
15569Oh, how do you make them do that, Aunt Grizzel?
15569Or the mermaids down under the sea?
15569Or would you rather go home? 15569 Past tea- time?"
15569Phil,she cried,"my own little Phil; where have you been to?
15569See the moon for myself, do you mean?
15569Shall I say good- night to you, then?
15569Shall I teach you?
15569Should we send for the watch- maker?
15569Tabitha, my dear,she said in a low voice,"do you hear?"
15569Tell me, are there any mermaids, or fairies, or water- sprites, or any of those sort of creatures here?
15569Then how will you amuse me?
15569These are my very oldestest things; that''s a good thing, is n''t it? 15569 WHY WON''T YOU SPEAK TO ME?"
15569Was ever any child here before?
15569Was n''t it you that sent him to play with me? 15569 Well, Griselda,"he said,"and how are you?
15569Well, Griselda,whispered a voice, which she knew was the cuckoo''s;"so you do n''t like to be told you are like your grandmother, eh?"
15569Well, my darling, and are you all ready for your_ fête_?
15569Well, my dear,she added aloud,"it is quite right he_ should_ say,''How do you do?''
15569Well, my dear?
15569Well, my love,said Miss Grizzel anxiously,"and how are you?
15569Well,said the cuckoo,"it''s where you were wishing to be yesterday, is n''t it?"
15569Well? 15569 Were you in the room_ then_?"
15569Were you sorry not to come to play with me?
15569What are they doing, cuckoo?
15569What are they? 15569 What are you unhappy about?"
15569What can we do?
15569What could have made me fall asleep so all of a sudden?
15569What did you do yesterday, Phil?
15569What do they have for dinner? 15569 What do they mean?"
15569What do they mean?
15569What do you know about the cuckoo?
15569What do you mean by big? 15569 What have I done to be sent to bed as if I were in disgrace?"
15569What is the matter, my dear?
15569What pictures will you show me? 15569 What should I say, then?
15569What would you like to do?
15569What''s that?
15569What''s the matter?
15569What''s the matter?
15569What''s the use of it?
15569What''s wrong here, then?
15569What''s your name, and what do you want?
15569What, Aunt Grizzel?
15569What?
15569What_ do_ you mean?
15569What_ would_ Mr. Kneebreeches think if I told him where I had been?
15569Where am I to wish to be?
15569Where am I, cuckoo?
15569Where are that cuckoo? 15569 Where are we?"
15569Where shall we go to now?
15569Where to?
15569Where to?
15569Where?
15569Where_ do_ you wish to be? 15569 Who are the fetch- and- carry butterflies, and who are the world- flower- painters?"
15569Who are you?
15569Who comes from the world of flowers? 15569 Who said I was a fairy?"
15569Who will row?
15569Who would I be, then?
15569Whom do you mean?
15569Why did n''t Miss Sybilla take it with her when she was married and went away?
15569Why do n''t they say so, then?
15569Why not? 15569 Why not?"
15569Why not?
15569Why not?
15569Why not?
15569Why should I go to bed? 15569 Why should n''t you?"
15569Why should she object at all? 15569 Why will you jump at conclusions so?
15569Why wo n''t you speak to me? 15569 Will it keep alight till the morning, do you think?"
15569Will you please tell me where we are going?
15569Wo n''t you come with me? 15569 Would it?"
15569Would you like to see for yourself, Griselda?
15569Would you like to see some pictures?
15569Yes, I''m just going to get in,she said;"but what do_ they_ mean when they nod at me like that?"
15569Yes, dear grandfather; and is n''t my dress lovely?
15569Yes, thank you, and I''ll come again to that place to- morrow afternoon, shall I?
15569Yes; but am I to wish first to be in the palace in the great saloon?
15569You do n''t care to go back to the mandarins, or the butterflies, I suppose?
15569You do n''t want to go to see the mandarins again?
15569You have the mantle on-- you''re not cold?
15569You would n''t have clambered up and hurt your poor fingers in opening the window if you had known it was me-- is that it, eh?
15569You''ll let me come, wo n''t you? 15569 You''re not afraid of falling off?"
15569You''re not going to take Phil away, are you?
15569You''re such a little boy,she said;"how do you know so much about flowers?"
15569_ All_?
15569_ Does_ he?
15569_ Have_ the butterflies nothing to do but fly about? 15569 _ Have_ you a nurse?"
15569_ Is n''t_ it nice?
15569_ Was_ she?
15569_ Would n''t_ I?
15569Already, Tabitha-- can it be so?"
15569And do you think you could help me to find the cuckoo?"
15569And how do you think they dressed her?
15569And how soon may I open my eyes, please, cuckoo?"
15569And is there?
15569And may n''t I come again?
15569And that makes it so strange that you should have brought me up here to- night to see for myself, does n''t it, cuckoo?"
15569And they are all_ so_ old; perhaps they wo n''t like having a child among them?"
15569And when I''ve learnt to read a great deal, do you think the cuckoo would show us the way to fairyland?"
15569And where does it lead to?"
15569And where''s the sun, cuckoo?
15569Are there any mermaids in the moon- sea?"
15569Are they_ all_ twirling about always, cuckoo?
15569Are you all right?
15569Are you all right?"
15569Are you cold, Griselda?"
15569Are you comfortable now?
15569Are you comfortable?"
15569Are you glad, children?"
15569Are you sure we shall have time to go to the mandarins''country to- night?"
15569Are you tired?"
15569But all the same, cuckoo, it''s a very good thing I''m not hungry, is n''t it?
15569But how_ do_ you think they dressed her?
15569But what was the use?
15569But, cuckoo, do they paint all the flowers_ here_, too?
15569By- the- by, can you dance?"
15569Can one afternoon''s companionship with rudeness have already contaminated her?
15569Can your eyes see what such good seeds grow into?
15569Come in to the parlour at once-- and this little girl, who is she?"
15569Could her wish have come true?
15569Could it be_ her_ doing that trouble was coming upon the old house?
15569Could it have been a dream?
15569Could it have been her fancy only that he had sprung back more hastily than he would have done but for her throwing the book at him?
15569Could it, after all, have been fancy?
15569Cuckoo, are they doing it all on purpose to please me?"
15569Dear cuckoo, wo n''t you forgive me?"
15569Did he know how yesterday had been spent?
15569Did you care when you had to leave off, when you got too big?"
15569Did you ever hear tell of the''good people,''missie, over the sea where you come from?"
15569Did you ever?"
15569Do you ever have birthdays?"
15569Do you see?"
15569Do you think we could?"
15569Does it go through the wall?
15569Does_ you_ know?"
15569First, shall I lend you one of my mantles?
15569HOW COULD I BE TIRED, CUCKOO?"
15569HOW COULD I BE TIRED, CUCKOO?"]
15569Had ever a little girl such a flight before?
15569Had it been a dream only?
15569Has the time seemed very long while we were away?"
15569Have I been hard upon her, Sister Tabitha?"
15569Have you anybody to play with?"
15569Have you turned into a fairy, Phil?"
15569Honey?
15569How can I put my arms round it?"
15569How can we get down?
15569How could I be tired, cuckoo?"
15569How could they play?"
15569How nice it must be to be a butterfly; do n''t you think so, cuckoo?
15569How would you like a day a fortnight long, and nights to match?
15569I hope you are enjoying yourself?"
15569I never noticed that the palanquin was lined so nicely,"she continued,"for I suppose it_ is_ the one from Lady Lavander''s mantelpiece?
15569I wonder if I should wish for that, if a fairy gave me a wish?
15569I wonder if it is out of politeness to me, or does Aunt Grizzel come in last thing at night and touch them to make them keep nodding till morning?
15569I wonder if it is the very one?
15569I wonder if my great- aunts have a tame cuckoo in a cage?
15569I wonder what he''ll think of to amuse me next?"
15569I would give up being a_ person_ in a minute if I might be a-- a-- what would I best like to be?
15569Is a kind thought or action_ ever_ wasted?
15569Is it I that have grown little, or you that have grown big?"
15569Is it a hole cut out of the wall on purpose, cuckoo?"
15569Is n''t he alive?"
15569Is n''t it nice that I brought it?
15569It could n''t have been out- of- doors, could it?
15569It fluttered quietly up on to her shoulder, and sang out in a soft but cheery tone,"Cuckoo, cuckoo-- cold, did you say, Griselda?
15569It is n''t always like this up here, is it?"
15569It is n''t moonlight, is it?"
15569It turned easily; the door opened-- opened, and closed again noiselessly behind her, and what do you think she saw?
15569It''s more like the sun; but how ever could the sun be shining in a room in the middle of the night?
15569May I pour the scent on my pocket- handkerchief when it comes round to me?
15569May n''t I get on your back again?"
15569My nurse is rather nice; but she_ will_''cold me to- day, wo n''t she?"
15569Now may I run about and look at everything?
15569Now, which way_ shall_ we go?"
15569Oh, Master Phil, how could you stay out so late?
15569Oh, cuckoo, cuckoo, I am so dull; could n''t you think of anything to amuse me?"
15569People leave off having nurses and mothers when they''re big, do n''t they?
15569Right, or left, or straight on, which should it be?
15569SHE LOOKED LIKE A FAIRY QUEEN"WHERE ARE THAT CUCKOO?"
15569Shall I open the door and peep in?"
15569Shall we go inside to see more?
15569So-- you''re surely ready now?"
15569Somehow, when the cuckoo said"eh?"
15569Spring had only been sleepy and lazy, and in such a case what could poor old winter do but fill the vacant post till she came?
15569That would do for''not exactly,''would n''t it?"
15569The cuckoo smiled, I was going to say, but that would be a figure of speech only, would it not?
15569The light comes from them, I suppose?
15569The way to the true fairyland is hard to find, and we must each find it for ourselves, must n''t we?"
15569Then she heard the cuckoo''s voice, saying--"Well, was n''t that well done?
15569There''s no harm my asking that?"
15569There''s no moon there, is there?"
15569There''s the sun now, just getting up, and the moon just going to bed--_they_ are always obeying, are n''t they?
15569There, do you feel me?"
15569Was it far?"
15569Was she not a poor neglected little creature?
15569Was this fairyland indeed that she had got to, where one only needs to_ wish_, for it to_ be_?
15569Well, but if it was all dream, it would be the same as if it was all real, would it not?
15569What can be going to happen?
15569What could you do to amuse me, cuckoo?"
15569What did he mean?
15569What did she see?
15569What did she see?
15569What do you call''play''--blindman''s- buff and that sort of thing?"
15569What do you mean by time?"
15569What do you think I came and sat outside your window for?"
15569What do you think of that?"
15569What had she done?
15569What is his name, as you know so much, Dorcas?"
15569What is the light, cuckoo?
15569What shall I do?
15569What shall we do?"
15569What was it she heard?
15569What would you say to no summer; no day, or no night, whichever it happened not to be, you see; nothing growing, and nothing to eat before long?
15569What''s at the other side of the moon?"
15569What''s the matter?
15569What''s the matter?"
15569What_ would_ the three old ladies have thought if she had called it out?
15569Where is the place we came out of the wood at?"
15569Where was she?
15569Where was she?
15569Where was the clock?
15569Where were they?
15569Where would all the days and hours be if there was nothing but minutes?
15569Why did you send him away?"
15569Why need we go yet?"
15569Why wo n''t you come out, cuckoo?"
15569Will it be rising soon?
15569Will you really take me there, cuckoo?"
15569Will your nurse be vexed, Phil?"
15569Would that be good enough for us to be, do you think?"
15569You can fly, but must I slide down the chain again?"
15569You did n''t know I was waiting here for you, did you?"
15569You do n''t suppose you are the first little girl they have ever made a dress for?"
15569You know what sort of creatures those are?"
15569You''re not frightened now, Griselda, are you?"
15569[ Illustration:"WHERE ARE THAT CUCKOO?"]
15569[ Illustration:"WHY WON''T YOU SPEAK TO ME?"]
15569_ Butterflies_ do n''t gather honey, cuckoo?"
15569_ Clap_--where were they all?
15569_ Was_ it a dream?"
15569_ Was_ it distant?
15569and have you asked him?
15569exclaimed Griselda in a passion;"what business have you to mock me?"
15569repeated the cuckoo;"what is time?
15569said Griselda, feeling rather muddled;"but,_ not_ counting myself, cuckoo, I would then, would n''t I?"
15569she exclaimed,"how can you think of such a thing?
15569she exclaimed,"what can be going to happen?
15569she exclaimed;"but it ca n''t be alive, then?"
21035Ai n''t I, though?
21035Ai n''t you? 21035 All clear?"
21035All right, that''s settled; and you are seeing about grub, Tom, are n''t you? 21035 All that?
21035All very fine,said Margetson;"why do n''t you pay your own bills?"
21035Am I? 21035 An''what''ave yer got?"
21035And I suppose you wish you''d got the other half, eh? 21035 And do you remember what an ass you used to make of yourself over that precious silver watch of yours?"
21035And how did you leave them at home, sir?
21035And how do you like going to school?
21035And if he turns cantankerous?
21035And it will stand a little roughish wear, you think?
21035And she gave you a kiss to take to him?
21035And so you''re going to school, my man?
21035And the ten shillings?
21035And what about his bad friends?
21035And what better?
21035And what do you think?
21035And what''s that got to do with you, you young idiot,exclaimed Drift, fairly losing his temper,"if I am?"
21035And where are they now?
21035And where are you?
21035And you promise to be a good friend to Tom,said she, kissing him,"wo n''t you?"
21035And you''ll call and see my father pretty often, wo n''t you?
21035And you''ll keep yourself free for a week''s jaunt at Easter?
21035Any marks?
21035Are we the only two in for it?
21035Are you going alone, then?
21035Are you though?
21035Are you, though? 21035 Are you, though?"
21035Are you? 21035 Because I do n''t know where to go, and Tom Drift--""Do you know Tom Drift?"
21035But what are you up to, Tom?--you''re not going in here, are you?
21035Ca n''t you let him know somehow?
21035Ca n''t you make it go, Tom Drift? 21035 Can we see the organ?"
21035Can you find out his address?
21035Can you give us a lift, then, Bill?
21035Chain and all?
21035Come to that? 21035 Could n''t you catch yourself in his fingers or something?
21035Could n''t you get hold of his watch and boil it?
21035Did I understand you to bid four five, sir?
21035Did he really?
21035Did he, though?
21035Did n''t I tell you he was a swell?
21035Did you though? 21035 Did you?
21035Did your honour plaze to spake?
21035Do n''t you know me, scarf- pin?
21035Do n''t you see his hands are caught? 21035 Do ye hear?"
21035Do you hear, Turnip? 21035 Do you hear, Turnip?
21035Do you hear, Turnip? 21035 Do you hear, Turnip?
21035Do you hear, you young muff?
21035Do you hear, young prig? 21035 Do you hear?
21035Do you know that I was current coin of the realm before the tin mine that supplied your carcass was so much as discovered? 21035 Do you know the school?
21035Do you live near the sea?
21035Do you remember Tom Drift?
21035Do you suppose I''ll take a dirty shilling? 21035 Do you think I shall get in a row for driving the cab yesterday?"
21035Do you think it would be a good thing to wind it up?
21035Do you? 21035 Does it look like it?
21035Down where?
21035Duck Downie, me jewil, will ye step this way just?
21035Eh, my boy?
21035Eh? 21035 Er-- what did you say, Reader?"
21035Exactly, nothing very grand; but I dare say you find it as good a place to read in as a drawing- room, eh? 21035 Five shillings?"
21035Got to? 21035 Got, pal?"
21035Halliday,said Clarke,"were you in chapel this morning?"
21035Has it come to that?
21035Have a weed?
21035He is going, then?
21035How are you, old Tom? 21035 How are you?"
21035How are you?
21035How can I make him go? 21035 How can I?
21035How do I know? 21035 How do you know you are right?"
21035How do you know?
21035How ever did you know that?
21035How far is it?
21035How should I know?
21035How_ did_ you know I was longing to have one?
21035I beg your pardon, doctor,said Charlie;"did I hurt you?"
21035I hope Mr Reader and I are not at enmity?
21035I know what the time is, young man,replied she sternly;"and pray, who is Jim?"
21035I know,replied Joe;"about that everlasting watch of yours, was n''t it?"
21035I say, Tom Drift, would you like to see the new lance- wood top I''ve got to my rod? 21035 I say, Tom,"added Charlie nervously, coming to his point,"will you do me a favour?"
21035I say, driver, what''s your name?
21035I say, lend us your watch, young un, will you?
21035I say, old boy, you''ll make your fortune out of that youngster; and what did his father say?
21035I say, sir, do you think it''ll be a fine day?
21035I say, you fellow,added he, addressing Charlie,"was n''t it you drove up to the front door in a cab this afternoon?"
21035I say, youngster, I thought you had given up the notion of making up to that fellow?
21035I say,said he,"what''s his name-- Tom what?"
21035I shall be very glad to help-- have you decided-- er-- I mean-- has anything been said-- that is-- about what--"About how much? 21035 I suppose she told you Tom was a real nice boy?"
21035I suppose that young brother of mine is going with you?
21035I suppose you are an older resident here than I am?
21035I suppose you wo n''t be there to- morrow?
21035I suppose you wonder why I want you, Newcome?
21035I thought so; so he is, is n''t he, Joe?
21035I thought you told me once your people did n''t fancy your going in for athletics?
21035I wonder if I''m the same as you?
21035I wonder what they''ll do about the church organ when George''s gone?
21035I?
21035In the first class?
21035Introduce me, will you?
21035Is Tom your boy''s name?
21035Is he a nice boy?
21035Is he awfully stuck- up and strict?
21035Is he gone?
21035Is he one of them four as brought you here?
21035Is it mock me, ye would, as well as rob me, ye foul- mouthed spalpeen, you?
21035Is it, though? 21035 Is n''t he?
21035Is that the grub?
21035Is the fellow at college, do you know?
21035Is there one about at all?
21035Is there? 21035 Is young Cadger a thief?"
21035It was only in fun,he explained;"did it hurt you?"
21035It''s two years since you left, is n''t it?
21035Let''s have a look at it, will you?
21035Look here-- what''s your name?
21035Man dear, and is that the way ye address one of the Quane''s foighting men? 21035 May I come in?"
21035May I give you a kiss?
21035May I?
21035Not so bad as that, Joe,said Charlie;"but I say, is n''t Tom Drift a nice boy, then?"
21035Nothing more for this very magnificent watch?
21035Now, Newcome; one tug more?
21035Now?
21035Oh, but I''ve a lot to say,went on this irrepressible chatterbox;"in the first place--""_ Will_ you be silent?"
21035Oh, do n''t you know we''ve made it up? 21035 Oh, he''s the driver is Jim, and he got inside, you know, and I''ve driven nearly all the way up by myself; have n''t I, Jim?"
21035Oh, only the old lady was his mother, and I promised her-- at least she said-- do you know Tom Drift, ma''am?
21035Oh, she gave you one for yourself, did she?
21035Oh, yes, you are; do n''t you know Reader''s the fellow in against you for the` Wigram''?
21035Old man, are n''t you well?
21035Paddy,said he,"next time you borrow a gentleman''s watch be sure you ask''i m for the key, do you hear?
21035Perhaps you''ll wonder why we''ve come?
21035Shall I go for once?
21035Shall I read it?
21035Shall we go in yet, or knock the balls about for a bit?
21035Shut up, will you, Margetson? 21035 So you are fond of fishing?"
21035So you can; the thing only lasts an hour, and you''re not obliged to go to bed at eleven, are you?
21035So you''re going to see the races?
21035So you''ve found_ your_ way here, have you, my young bantam? 21035 Some coves is uncommon proud o''themselves, mate, ai n''t they?-- particular them as ai n''t much account after all?"
21035Suppose we go off for a regular good day on Saturday? 21035 Suppose we shove his wheels on?"
21035Sure Duck Downie says it''s not worth thirty shillings--"Who cares for Duck Downie?
21035That must be nearly two years ago?
21035That there''s the soldier, Turnip; ai n''t it, mate?
21035That will be just five pounds, wo n''t it?
21035That you, Stumpy?
21035That''s one of our men, is n''t it?
21035The old, ugly watch, papa?
21035Then why not stop work now and take a rest?
21035Then you can guarantee it to be a good one to go?
21035Three pounds,said the auctioneer;"you''re not going to stop, sir?"
21035Three pounds; no more? 21035 To be sure-- my young friend the three- guinea silver watch?
21035Tom, you rascal, did n''t I tell you you were n''t to knock yourself up, eh? 21035 Up where?"
21035Very good,said the auctioneer, who was making the catalogue;"shall we take leather bags next?"
21035Was the sailor drowned?
21035We are going to Gurley; have you ever been to Gurley, young un?
21035Well, James, and how do you feel after it all?
21035Well, Jim, I wish you''d just get inside and look after the luggage, and let me drive; will you?
21035Well, did you ever hear the organ so grandly played?
21035Well, have you hooked him?
21035Well, what do you say to getting this, then? 21035 Well,"asked Jim,"what has he been saying to humbug you this time?"
21035Well,said he,"who''d have thought of seeing_ you_ here?
21035Well,said the turnkey, with a half- triumphant grin, as they turned to leave the gallery,"was n''t I right?
21035Were you?
21035What about him?
21035What are you in the sulks about?
21035What are you snivelling at, Turnip?
21035What are you three boys doing here?
21035What are you up to to- morrow?
21035What are you up to, getting up at this time?
21035What boy?
21035What business has he to go talking all over the school about my affairs?
21035What business has that ugly bit of tin here?
21035What can I do for you, sir?
21035What can you give me for these, they are nearly new?
21035What cheer, Stumpy?
21035What cheer, Tuppeny?
21035What did you do it for, if you did n''t mean, you young muff?--why do n''t you go off to bed?
21035What do I care what you promised my mother? 21035 What do n''t I?"
21035What do you know about my mother?
21035What do you mean by coming here?
21035What do you mean?
21035What do you say to shaking him?
21035What do you say, young man?
21035What do you want, young un-- eh?
21035What do you want?
21035What does that child want?
21035What for?
21035What for?
21035What for?
21035What for?
21035What is all this?
21035What is he imprisoned for?
21035What is it playing?
21035What is it, Tom? 21035 What is it, lad?"
21035What is it?
21035What on earth''s the row?
21035What right has the fellow always to be following me up in this way?
21035What size box?
21035What soldier?
21035What will you give me for this?
21035What''ave yer got?
21035What''s going on?
21035What''s going to happen to us to- morrow?
21035What''s his name, do you know?
21035What''s his name?
21035What''s my mother to do with him?
21035What''s that man''s name?
21035What''s that to music? 21035 What''s that?"
21035What''s the fellow talking about?
21035What''s the gossoon about at all?
21035What''s the matter?
21035What''s the matter?
21035What''s the time?
21035What''s to be done?
21035What''ud I want to give him up?
21035What, a ticker? 21035 What, do n''t you know where you''re a- going, old Turnip?
21035What, old fellow?
21035What, were you the boy who was kicking up all that row? 21035 What?"
21035When shall I call, sir?
21035Where are they all going?
21035Where are we going to now?
21035Where are you off to?
21035Where are you, Turnip? 21035 Where are you?"
21035Where are your rooms?
21035Where did yer git''i m?
21035Where to?
21035Where''s she a- going to?
21035Where''s that?
21035Where''ve yer been to?
21035Which way do you go?
21035Who are the fellows?
21035Who are you?
21035Who are_ you_, rather?
21035Who calls me an ugly bit of tin?
21035Who did that?
21035Who do you suppose wants you? 21035 Who is the fellow who played to- day?"
21035Who told ye that?
21035Who''s going to win the Gulley Plate, Gus?
21035Who''s that kicking up that row whistling?
21035Who''s that?
21035Who''s that?
21035Who''s this coming?
21035Who''s your friend, Gus?
21035Who''s your fwend?
21035Who-- oh, young Newcome?
21035Whom are you going with?
21035Why did n''t you bring it up, you young muff?
21035Why do n''t you come with us?
21035Why do n''t you get your father to give you one?
21035Why do n''t you put it right? 21035 Why ever not?"
21035Why not?
21035Why should I grind and plod here,he said,"while every one else is enjoying himself?
21035Why, what''s the matter, my boy?
21035Why, what''s the matter?
21035Why,asked the pipe, in a solemn voice,"is a second- hand pewter- plate, stuck- up turnip, like a weskit that ai n''t paid for?"
21035Why?
21035Why?
21035Why_ ever_ not?
21035Will you give it up?
21035Will you really?
21035Will you stand still and listen to me a moment?
21035With who?
21035Wo n''t I?
21035Wo n''t we? 21035 Would n''t it do in the morning?"
21035Would yer mind lending me some togs, sir, for a few minutes?
21035Would you like to know the time before I go? 21035 Would you like to know the time, ma''am?"
21035Would you like to see my knife, ma''am?
21035Would you like to try the organ?
21035Yes,replied George;"how did you know?"
21035Yes,replied he, with lofty condescension;"like to see his works?"
21035Yes-- I say, ma''am, might I see Tom Drift, do you think? 21035 You are not going to work to- night?"
21035You do n''t know India, I suppose, sir?
21035You do n''t mean to say you are squeamish about it?
21035You do n''t suppose I meant you when I talked of silver things, do you?
21035You''ll clean it up, will you, and set it going, and send it to me this afternoon?
21035You''ll pay for me, Tom,said Shadbolt,"wo n''t you?"
21035You''re a freshman, I suppose?
21035_ Now_ do you know why I want that watch?
21035is gone for good, and good riddance, do yer? 21035 A voice close beside me said, in a hoarse whisper,What cheer, Turnip?
21035All signs of shame and penitence disappeared as he stepped with a swagger up to Charlie and exclaimed,--"What business have you to attack my friends?
21035And do you think he saw me hit Johnny Walker in the eye at breakfast?"
21035And his face was as kind as ever, and his voice encouraging, as he repeated,--"What''s the matter, my man?
21035And now tell me who''s the pale man talking to Clarke?"
21035And now, Tom, where are blacks and reds; I''m just in the humour for a rubber, are n''t you?"
21035And so this is your den?
21035And what are you going to do, then, my young lamb?"
21035And what good are you now, my ancient Bob?"
21035And what''s the news down in your part of the world?
21035And you are going there, are you?"
21035And you will be friends now, wo n''t you?
21035Are you going on the grand stand?"
21035Are you ill, or in trouble?
21035Are you the fellow who''s in for the Wigram Scholarship?"
21035Bless you, man, are n''t we all of us lineal descendants of a gardener?
21035Both were silent for some time, and then Charlie asked,--"I say, has he got a watch?"
21035But I say, Tom Drift, are you sure you would n''t mind coming?
21035But I say, if you ever come to the school, ask for me-- my name''s Charlie Newcome-- will you?
21035But are n''t you going to offer me some breakfast?"
21035But how to do it?
21035But what boy of thirteen can be in the dumps for long?
21035But what could I do?
21035But what if he should not see me?
21035But where''s the other pair?"
21035But why need I describe this experience to boys?
21035But why sicken you, dear reader, and myself, with recapitulating the sad workings of this poor fellow''s mind?
21035By the way, do you ever see Call?
21035By the way, what''s become of that little mooney- face prig we took with us that day; eh, Tom?"
21035Can you guess what the name of the school is?"
21035Can you tell me where I am?"
21035Can_ you_ tell the time, Bob, eh, Bob, Bob, Bob?"
21035Charlie descended, all jubilant with triumph, and pulling out me, exclaimed,"We did that three miles in half an hour-- not bad, was it?"
21035Charlie was silent for a time, and then asked,--"I say, what sort of fellow''s the head master; do you know?"
21035Charlie''s face at once became serious as he replied,"How could I forget him?
21035Come along, do n''t be an ass; and bring young mooney- face; I dare say by this time he knows what''s what as well as you or me, Tom; eh, Jack?"
21035Come along, old man; cut work for one evening, ca n''t you?
21035Could he be dead?
21035Could this be Tom Drift here in India, and kneeling beside his old schoolfellow''s body?
21035Could this handkerchief possibly have belonged to poor Charlie Newcome?
21035Could you find out to- day by telegram?"
21035Dear reader, does it ever occur to your mind that there are hundreds of such vagrants in this great city?
21035Did ever you hear of such an old bear?"
21035Did he pawn you?"
21035Did my father tell you?"
21035Did n''t he give you half a dozen as pretty bits of language as you ever heard?"
21035Did you ever know such a brick as that uncle of mine?"
21035Did you see how he smacked his lips over the play, and yet all the while wanted to make us think he saw that sort of thing every day of his life, eh?
21035Did you stay after the service on Sunday?"
21035Do n''t you remember?
21035Do yer give it up?
21035Do you hear, Turnip?
21035Do you hear, Turnip?
21035Do you hear, Turnip?
21035Do you hear, Turnip?
21035Do you hear?
21035Do you hear?"
21035Do you know I''m a hundred years old?"
21035Do you remember thrashing me last time we met, Tom-- the summer after I''d left Randlebury?"
21035Do you think I ca n''t see your eyes and your cheeks?
21035Do you think I do n''t know you''ve never been out of doors ten minutes that you could help for six months?
21035Does any one know if George has a watch?"
21035Eat I say, I do n''t suppose there''s many of the boys my age have got watches, do you?"
21035Eh, Jim?"
21035Eh, mate?"
21035Eh, my love?
21035Eh?"
21035George smiled again, then said,--"Jim, you will look after my father and mother, wo n''t you?
21035Get out of the way, do you hear?"
21035Go in, will you?"
21035Good-- hullo?"
21035Have you been regulated?"
21035Have you had a good harvest?
21035Have you seen him yet, Tom?"
21035He is living at some disreputable lodging- house--""Where?"
21035He now turned round with a start and said--"Eh?
21035He stepped across the room and put his arm in Tom''s as he stood, and said,--"Tom, old boy, what''s wrong?"
21035He''s a promising chap, eh, Jack?"
21035How are you both?
21035How are you going on in the second?"
21035How are you, Charlie, my boy?
21035How are you, old horse, and how''s your mother?
21035How are you?"
21035How could I help rejoicing in the share I had had in this blessed work of restoration?
21035How do you do, my little man?"
21035How do you like him?"
21035How ever did you come here?
21035How much?"
21035How to approach one who was ashamed of his own name, and who repelled with an oath every offer of help?
21035How was I to know you was the gentleman dropped him there?
21035How''s the ticker?
21035I ca n''t make out that sort of training, can you?"
21035I heard a voice whisper,"what''s to be done?"
21035I knew what the matter was at once, and what did this lump of an Irishman understand about watch- keys and winding up?
21035I know nothing about columns and countermarches, and echelons and skirmishing; how could a watch, hid under a scarlet jacket, be expected to do so?
21035I promised you, you know, I would ask for you occasionally, did n''t I?
21035I say, Jim, what do they want to give us a holiday for, do you know?"
21035I say, Newcome, shall we go and get it?"
21035I say, are you going to Randlebury?"
21035I say, ca n''t you put the things inside, and then I can ride on the box?"
21035I say, do you think my watch is a good one?"
21035I say, marm, do you know Tom Drift?"
21035I say, would you like to know the time now, Tom Drift?"
21035I suppose this can will be full when you come back?"
21035I thought I knew all the men in the college; but perhaps you live in the town?"
21035I thought as I looked,"Where could one find his equal?"
21035I was never so glad, is n''t it jolly?"
21035I would so gladly for anything else, but I promised father--""Once more, will you, or will you not?"
21035I''ll bring my watch and knife, you know, and some grub, and we can picnic there, eh?"
21035I''m reading hard, and, besides--""Besides what?"
21035If a seven- guinea watch goes for four pounds, for how much will a three- guinea one go?
21035If we do nothing else in Kent we shall scare the crows, eh, Tom?"
21035Is n''t this a spree?"
21035It was positively painful to see how that vile piece of string wriggled as he replied,--"Do you hear, Turnip?
21035It would n''t be a bother to you, would it?"
21035It''s a prime town, is n''t it, Margetson?"
21035Jim stood a moment irresolute, and then said,--"May I speak to you, friend?"
21035Just as he was going off to bed Joe stopped him and asked,--"By the way, shall you be using your watch to- morrow?"
21035Just as he was going on his way, the officer turned and said, in a voice which startled me,--"Is it ten yet, my man?"
21035Just then there came up a gaunt man, in an undress uniform, who, seeing that they knelt over a wounded man, said,--"Is he alive?"
21035Larry, a hulking sheepish young Irishman, did not look particularly happy at this information, and replied,--"And what''s to prevent him axing?"
21035Let me see some silver chains, will you?"
21035Look here, shall I tell you the time?
21035May n''t I know what it is?
21035Need I say I spent a sad and sleepless night?
21035Need I say that as these two knelt together that night, their only son was not forgotten in their prayers?
21035Never mind, we''ll often write, and you''ll promise to let me know how you are getting on, wo n''t you?"
21035Nobody?
21035Now tell me, what time did you go to bed last night?"
21035Now what do you think of that?"
21035Oh, I know who one of them is,"added Charlie--"Margetson, in the fourth; do n''t you know him?"
21035Once I was just conscious of a slight jerk from my chain as he peeped in and whispered,--"What are you so quiet about down there?"
21035One of the two scowled up at him, and replied,--"What business is it of yours where we talk?"
21035People''ud think better on''em if they did n''t think such a lot of theirselves; would n''t they now, mate?"
21035Scowling round at the speaker, he muttered an oath, and said,"What on earth concern is it of yours who my friends are and where I go?
21035She took me kindly, and said,"What a fine watch you''ve got, dear?"
21035So you are going to fish to- day?"
21035Suppose we go off to the supper, and I''ll stand treat afterwards at the music- hall?"
21035Surely the gay students of Saint George''s were not about to effect an amateur burglary on the friendless owner of the"Mouse- trap?"
21035Take my chain and my knife, but not my watch?"
21035Talking of that day, have you heard lately of Tom Drift?
21035That''s an awful hole, is n''t it?"
21035The lad chuckled at this vastly, and then said,--"And what might ye be wanting me for, gineral, at all at all?"
21035Then he would take to whistling and singing( what boy can help doing one or the other in a train?)
21035Then turning to the trembling Paddy, he said, in a voice almost unsteady in its eagerness,--"My man, what will you sell me this watch for?"
21035Then what will be the use of all your achievements?
21035There, what do you think of that?"
21035Three guineas, gentlemen; who says more?
21035Tom tried to look as much at his ease as he could as he replied,--"Why, Gus, old man, where_ did_ you spring from?
21035Turnip?
21035Walking up to him, and laying his hand on his shoulder, Jim said, quietly,--"Tom Drift, do you remember me?"
21035Was ever such a radiant young hero turned loose into the world?
21035Was he never to discover that Friend, truer than all earthly friends, at Whose side he might brave each trial and overcome each temptation?
21035Was it possible?
21035Was it possible?
21035Was n''t it prime?
21035Was n''t that a familiar name to me?
21035Well?"
21035What about him?"
21035What are you so quiet about?"
21035What boy does not covet a watch of his own at some time or other?
21035What business have they here at all?"
21035What can I do at all?"
21035What cared_ he_ for rats?
21035What do you mean?"
21035What do you say?
21035What do you say?"
21035What do you think it was about?"
21035What do you think of that, Bob?
21035What do you think of that, Turnip?
21035What do you think of that?"
21035What do you think of that?"
21035What do you think of that?"
21035What do_ you_ think?"
21035What had I done to be thus chained like a Roman captive, like a dog, like a parrot?
21035What harm in going again to- night?
21035What have you about that price that would be suitable?"
21035What have you got to say?"
21035What is it?"
21035What mattered it now how long the marches were, and how grilling the sun?
21035What of him?
21035What on earth do you want to go worrying about the thing any more for?"
21035What shall I do?"
21035What time are you?"
21035What time does the match begin?"
21035What time have you told young mooney- face?"
21035What ud_ it_ want a kay for?"
21035What was it?
21035What was to be done?
21035What will be the good of them to your father and mother, for instance, when you are knocked up?"
21035What wonder if he hankered after a"little excitement,"to break the monotony of lectures, hard reading, and stupid evenings?
21035What wonder if his thoughts wandered to scenes and places that contrasted forcibly with his dead- alive occupation?
21035What wonder indeed if after so many disappointments and insults, the boy should at length leave his old schoolfellow to his fate?
21035What wonder, I say, if he moped and felt discontented?
21035What would become of me?
21035What''s happening?"
21035What''s it like?"
21035What''s the use of you, Bob, eh?
21035What''s to become of it, by the by?"
21035What, have you got a watch?"
21035When the last had been called, he said,--"Where''s Number 2222?"
21035When would_ he_, he wondered, be sufficiently hardy to whistle within those awful walls?
21035Where are they, colonel?"
21035Where were all the old days now?
21035Who backs up Randlebury?"
21035Who could help being at his ease where Charlie was?
21035Who dares call me a Bob?"
21035Who knows what that offer cost him?
21035Who says that?"
21035Who told you that?
21035Who was this taking upon himself to bless my little heart and prophesy that I should be proud?
21035Who would admire or value_ me_, a poor, commonplace silver drudge, now that this grand, showy rival had come and taken my place?
21035Who''d have thought of running up against you like this?"
21035Why are you like a weskit that ai n''t paid for?
21035Why ca n''t I do as I choose without his pulling a long face?"
21035Why ca n''t you be''appy like me and my mate?
21035Why ca n''t you do what you''re told?
21035Why did the voice startle me?
21035Why do n''t you explore and find some place a trifle less dead- alive?
21035Why do you want it?"
21035Why should we?"
21035Why, do you know it''s only just six?"
21035Why, my dear fellow, has it ever occurred to you I''m in for the same Tripos as you, and I''m not behaving as ridiculously as you?"
21035Why, what a weak- minded fellow Tom is; ai n''t he, Jack?"
21035Why-- why do you ask?
21035Why?"
21035Will you allow me to introduce my two friends, Ensign Newcome and Mr Reader?
21035Will you come to my rooms?"
21035Will you help him, Jim?"
21035Will you, Tom?"
21035With the elder boys he was also a favourite, for what big boy does not take pride in patronising a plucky, frank youngster?
21035With two friends on such a footing of confidence, is it a wonder they clave one to the other in mute admiration and affection?
21035Wo n''t he, mate?"
21035Wo n''t we, Jack?"
21035Would you like to see for yourself, ma''am?"
21035Would you like to see for yourself, marm?"
21035You know I''ve got a little money now, and they will be comfortably off, but you''ll go and see them now and then?"
21035You know old Howe?
21035You''ll be a good friend to him, wo n''t you, dear?"
21035You''ll come too, of course?
21035You''ll tell me, wo n''t you?"
21035You''re a- going wherever he takes yer; ai n''t he, mate?"
21035Your name is Charles Newcome, I suppose?
21035_ In_ his pocket, did I say?
21035a man inquired one day of the organist;"is he a pupil of yours?"
21035ai n''t he a funny chap?
21035ai n''t you a funny chap?
21035and did he send the watches?"
21035and that you have even given up the organ?"
21035and why did Mr Drift push his chair back into the shadow?
21035but I tell you what, whew--""What?"
21035ca n''t we help him?
21035called out my master,"and cast your eye on my watch?"
21035cried one of the two, as he passed;"is n''t your name Drift?"
21035do you hear?
21035exclaimed Tom;"do you know what it''s worth?"
21035going to do it flash, are you?
21035got a donkey at last?"
21035he cried;"did you ever see such a caution to students?
21035he exclaimed, addressing Gus,"have n''t you done mischief enough to Tom already?
21035he exclaimed;"did you ever hear the like?
21035he exclaimed;"is n''t it a disgrace?"
21035he walked in a way of his own?
21035how do you like it?"
21035is it?
21035papa, please tell us a story?"
21035said Gus, after the first stroke;"what are you playing for?"
21035said Gus,"does it hurt you still then?
21035said Gus;"where did you get it?"
21035said I, angrily;"is n''t it bad enough to be down here, all through your carelessness?"
21035said a head looking in at the door;"caught cold, or what?"
21035said the curate;--"and perhaps you would like to come with us to Reader''s cottage this evening, when we are going to present it?"
21035said the hunter;"now what have you got to say?"
21035she exclaimed,"you do n''t mean to tell me you_ are_ going to Randlebury?"
21035went on Jim--"blowing like an old broken- winded horse?
21035what did you say?"
21035what do you think of that?"
21035what friend?"
21035what''s the matter?"
21035when should I see his face or hear his voice again now?
21035who are these three?"
21035who shall describe that?
21035who wants you to gamble?
21035who''s your friend?"
21035why ca n''t you let me tell my story in peace?
21035why wo n''t you at least tell me what it is?"
21035why, even, did papa''s voice tremble now and then as he went on, and caught the eye first of one and then another of his listeners?
