43599 | A little mother''s wit in one''s head is worth having, and where''s the good if one does n''t use it? 43599 And are ye sure it''s Paddy it is, and that it is by himself he is?" |
43599 | And how does all this happen? |
43599 | And how much might they be? |
43599 | And is it washing her face of a morning that''s too much trouble to your sister? |
43599 | And is it you, Paddy? |
43599 | And was Boneparte a very big man? |
43599 | And which way do you intend to bring the sheep home? |
43599 | And who should it be, sure,was answered from without,"but Paddy, auld Paddy the Piper? |
43599 | And why shall I not, Neighbour? |
43599 | Are you an idiot? |
43599 | But what about Paddy? |
43599 | Did I not promise you,he said,"that, if found in my territory, you should be surely hanged? |
43599 | Did you ever see such an old fool as that,said one,"to be walking along this hot road, and his donkey going on in front with nothing to carry?" |
43599 | Do you think so? |
43599 | Does he improve? |
43599 | How did it happen? |
43599 | How not right? |
43599 | I wish I had that bird,said the Jew;"could you not shoot it for me, my Friend?" |
43599 | Is it a watch I hear you''ve got, Paul? |
43599 | It is not my fault,the Tailor said,"how could I know you understood it this way, when I meant you to sew the sleeves into the coat?" |
43599 | It is not that I mean,said the first speaker;"but have you ever heard that bees swarm in the dark, for I am covered with them?" |
43599 | Kitty,said he,"what''s that?" |
43599 | Leave me in peace then,he said, going back to his bed; but as I would not leave him in peace, but kept crying out,"What will I do?" |
43599 | May be you''d take five pounds for her? |
43599 | No,he said;"why should I be awake at this time o''morning?" |
43599 | Now,the Butcher continued,"does either of you think he could make as good a bargain as that?" |
43599 | Then,said I,"you must listen to me in your sleep, for it''s dead she is, and what will I do at all?" |
43599 | There,Tim said,"do n''t you see something sticking out on her face? |
43599 | Well met, Neighbour,said the one man,"whither are you going?" |
43599 | Well, this is too bad; what will the world come to next? 43599 Well,"Tim went on,"and what number does the short hand point to?" |
43599 | Well,said the Duke,"let me hear what you have to say in your defence, or rather, tell me why you are standing inside your horse?" |
43599 | What are you doing now, you rascal? |
43599 | What does all this mean, Tim? 43599 What does the old jade mean?" |
43599 | What have you done? |
43599 | What were you doing in the market with Katty? 43599 What will you bet?" |
43599 | What''s that? |
43599 | When shall we do what''s right? |
43599 | Why should I not be merry,he answered,"for I am rich and have nothing to do but to enjoy myself? |
43599 | Why, you old fool, who do you think would have anything to do with the like of you, you ugly old cat? |
43599 | Will you never be satisfied? 43599 And another would say to the son, pointing with his thumb to his father,The old''un looks a tartar; does he whip you much?" |
43599 | And as the donkey made no answer he continued--"How is this? |
43599 | And now, what will you bet that I do not steal this very calf again?" |
43599 | And what, in heaven''s name, induced you to run away as if possessed by a thousand devils?" |
43599 | At length, however, scarcely moving his jaws, he ventured to mutter to his companion,"I say, Jack,"he said,"have you anything on your face?" |
43599 | But how''s this?" |
43599 | But now,"Paddy continued, talking to himself,"his dance is over, and what will he be wanting with his boots? |
43599 | But why inquire? |
43599 | But would even that do, for his father had other cows, and why sell the one which everybody knew was the favourite? |
43599 | Can she speak?" |
43599 | Could you not wait till our work was finished? |
43599 | Did you say his pipes and all are gone? |
43599 | Do I not want both my hands to carry this abominable hive? |
43599 | Do n''t you think it will serve him right?" |
43599 | Go, my Son; but do n''t open the door, for the life of ye, but ask the gintlemen, civil, Who might be there, and what they might be wanting?" |
43599 | Had they no wives or no sisters to look after their comfort? |
43599 | Have you gone clean mad?" |
43599 | He then went home, and his Mother said to him,"Well, Jock, what have you been doing to- day?" |
43599 | How could I open my mouth without losing the stone? |
43599 | How did you learn? |
43599 | I did n''t look at my watch, for I thought it was making game of me he was, but I said,"And how should she tell me the time of day? |
43599 | I knocked at his window, shouting,"Are you awake?" |
43599 | I see that there is only one fowl on the spit, whereas there were two; what has become of the other?" |
43599 | Is it fits she has, for there is something wild in her eye? |
43599 | Is that the baste you say is so gentle? |
43599 | Is there no one to interfere? |
43599 | Just then the Barber entered, and seeing all the destruction around him, exclaimed,"What does all this mean?" |
43599 | Now tell me what has brought yer here in this ugly fix? |
43599 | Now the Count said nothing to all this, and he said to himself,"Can it be possible that I am base born, for I see nothing but the white wall?" |
43599 | Now this good lady is angry that I have broken the window, but how could I help doing so, as it was not open? |
43599 | Now what did this obedient child do? |
43599 | Now which was the wisest of the three? |
43599 | Now, what will you give me if I cure your sow?" |
43599 | Or it''s vicious she is? |
43599 | Owlglass answered,"My dear Madam, must not an assistant do as his master bids him?" |
43599 | Owlglass said;"are the backs not sharp enough? |
43599 | Speak, Man, what is the matter with her?" |
43599 | The Master asked,"What did he tell us to do?" |
43599 | The Priest thereupon went into the kitchen, and said,"Why is it, Owlglass, that you have mocked my servant? |
43599 | The appointed day came in due time, and it was cold and drizzling; but the twelve met, for what true sportsman would allow weather to stop him? |
43599 | The other cried,"How is it possible I could pull your hair? |
43599 | The people cried out,"Those are not wanted here, for we have more than enough of them; and, pray, why do you not sow honest men as well?" |
43599 | Then the Gentleman said,"What will you give me if I find your missing companion?" |
43599 | Then, holding up the sack with the mouth down, before his astonished neighbours, he said,--"Will you tell me how much meal there is in this sack?" |
43599 | They had not gone far, however, when they found they were gradually slipping off the seats; and the Priest exclaimed,"What is all this grease? |
43599 | This made matters worse, for he soon heard one of his tormentors say,"Look there, was there ever such an old brute? |
43599 | Tim asked;"or is it your ghost? |
43599 | Was the door not wide enough for you, that you must needs come in through the window?" |
43599 | Well, to finish with my story, after five days I went to the nest, and what do you think I found? |
43599 | What could he answer, for, as he said to himself,"If I tell the truth who would buy the unnatural baste? |
43599 | What have I done to deserve this?" |
43599 | What have you to say for yourself?" |
43599 | What have you to say to this?" |
43599 | What is the good of you, you auld worm, if you canna even speak?" |
43599 | What is the matter with you, Tim?" |
43599 | What is your loss to mine? |
43599 | What is your opinion, my long- eared Friend?" |
43599 | What was to be done? |
43599 | What was to be done? |
43599 | When dinner- time had come the cook went to the fire to baste the chickens, and seeing only one, said to Owlglass,"What has become of the other fowl?" |
43599 | When he got home his Mother said to him,"What have you done, and brought home to- day?" |
43599 | When his Mother saw him she exclaimed,"Will you never grow wise? |
43599 | When the Master beheld this proceeding, he said,"What are you doing there, my man? |
43599 | When the Tailor came in, in the morning, he exclaimed,"What tomfoolery is this?" |
43599 | Where shall we bury your blessid feet? |
43599 | Whereupon he continued, holding his old hat in a peculiar manner, on the tips of his fingers,"Have I not paid you for the supper?" |
43599 | Who shall carry the sad news to his widow? |
43599 | Who taught you manners, my Friend?" |
43599 | Who''ll inform against these two big brutes? |
43599 | Wiping a tear from his eyes, he said,"Am I never to see my dear Jackey again? |
43599 | [ Illustration:_ The Bishop and the Highwayman._]"What can I do for you, my good Man?" |
43599 | _ The Shoemaker and the Dwarfs._ Why do we read of so many shoemakers that were poor? |
43599 | all exclaimed;"for perhaps one of our dear brothers is drowned, and what will his unfortunate widow do?" |
43599 | and is it yerself I run my nose agin here in the dark? |
43599 | are you there?" |
43599 | he continued, examining his friend still more closely--"and was it for this dance yer put on them iligant boots? |
43599 | it''s you is it, my runaway? |
43599 | she cried;"could you not have jumped on its back and ridden it home?" |
43599 | the Master cried in a rage;"or is all this mischief done intentionally? |
43599 | the villain has ruined my horse, for, beautiful creature that it is, who would have it without a tail?" |
43599 | which Owlglass noticing, at once went to the head of the university and said,"Learned Doctor, would you not like to see how my pupil is getting on?" |
43599 | you pig- headed timber- toed rogues, is that the way you run? |
20519 | A fingernail? |
20519 | A way out? |
20519 | Am I a great big curse? 20519 Am I?" |
20519 | And I''m to follow yours? |
20519 | And have you radiating the fact like a broadcasting station? |
20519 | And how can I believe you? |
20519 | And if I fail? |
20519 | And knowing the score makes me also dangerous to your Highways? 20519 And now?" |
20519 | And to which school do you belong? |
20519 | And who is the character? |
20519 | And you found what, when you tried to call her? |
20519 | Anything? |
20519 | Apologize? |
20519 | Are you going to let him get away with this? |
20519 | Are you guilty or not guilty? |
20519 | Both sides? |
20519 | But Steve-- what can we do? |
20519 | But could n''t I have been told_ something_? |
20519 | But how does this apply to me? |
20519 | But how on Earth--? |
20519 | But what is their purpose? |
20519 | But what kind of a sign would call your interest so deep that you did n''t at least see the limb, even if you were perceiving the sign? |
20519 | But what makes you think you are being pushed? |
20519 | But what? |
20519 | But where did she go? |
20519 | But why would we lie to you? |
20519 | But--? |
20519 | Can-- I see-- How is--? 20519 Catch any plans from them?" |
20519 | Catherine? |
20519 | Certain? |
20519 | Chess? |
20519 | Could n''t someone tell me? |
20519 | Could n''t you have taken me in too? |
20519 | Depends upon exactly what? |
20519 | Did I ever deny it? |
20519 | Did you get it? |
20519 | Did you have a clean- up squad following me all the time, picking up the debris? 20519 Digging for what?" |
20519 | Dismal prospect, is n''t it? |
20519 | Do I look all shot to bits? |
20519 | Do go on? 20519 Do you believe me, Steve?" |
20519 | Do you hope to get more? |
20519 | Do you know much about crystallography? |
20519 | Do you want me to get the cure? 20519 Do you yourself really expect me to seek blessed oblivion?" |
20519 | Does it hurt? |
20519 | Done any drinking? |
20519 | Everybody? |
20519 | Fast? |
20519 | Fine day for a ride, is n''t it? |
20519 | For four months? |
20519 | For what? |
20519 | For what? |
20519 | Forget her--? |
20519 | Got any plans? |
20519 | Guinea pig? |
20519 | Has anybody ever stopped to consider mine? |
20519 | Has n''t anybody thought of arresting me for kidnapping, suspicion of murder, reckless driving and cluttering up the highway with junk? |
20519 | Have I got a vote? 20519 Have n''t you done enough already?" |
20519 | Have you an assignment? |
20519 | Helping it? |
20519 | How about the crazy man who questions his own sanity, using this personal question as proof of his sanity since real nuts_ know_ they''re sane? |
20519 | How about the guy that hauled me out of that wreck? 20519 How are you going to find out?" |
20519 | How can I believe you now? |
20519 | How can I possibly believe you? |
20519 | How come the Harrisons moved so abruptly? |
20519 | How do I get it? |
20519 | How far out does this damned dead area extend? |
20519 | How long have I been known to be a Mekstrom Carrier? |
20519 | How much postage did you cost? 20519 How''d you connect?" |
20519 | How''d you guess? |
20519 | Huh? |
20519 | Huh? |
20519 | Huh? |
20519 | I know that, sir, but--"Then why do you disobey? |
20519 | I presume these signs cost quite a bit more than the stark, black and white enamel jobs? |
20519 | I suppose you know that I''m still trying to find my fiancà © e? |
20519 | I was n''t trying, then--"How about the people in the hotel in Denver? |
20519 | I-- what? |
20519 | Impossible? |
20519 | In other words you are more than willing to be convinced? |
20519 | In other words your parents are due for the treatment next? |
20519 | Is it bad? |
20519 | Is it terrible? |
20519 | Is n''t medicine a field that deals with people? |
20519 | Is n''t that bad? 20519 Is n''t the fact that you''re Mekstrom and I''m human likely to cause some rather pointed comment?" |
20519 | Is what terrible? |
20519 | It''s cold outside, remember? |
20519 | Just exactly what do you have in mind? |
20519 | Just like that? |
20519 | Just what has this to do with me and my future? |
20519 | Just what went on? |
20519 | Just where do they live? |
20519 | Just why was this registered nurse travelling with you? |
20519 | Know the route? |
20519 | Later? |
20519 | Let well enough alone? |
20519 | Look,I asked him,"why not admit it? |
20519 | Look,I said with a sudden thought,"Why ca n''t I still go on? |
20519 | Looking for someone? |
20519 | Marian? |
20519 | May I cut in? |
20519 | May I point out that I am far ahead of your game? 20519 May I quote you?" |
20519 | Mekstrom''s? |
20519 | Mind if I ride back to the house with you, mister? |
20519 | Mind telling a non- telepath what the devil you cooked up? |
20519 | Mind telling me what I''m slated for? 20519 Miss Macklin, you Mekstroms have hard bodies, but do you think your hide will stop a slug from this?" |
20519 | Moved? |
20519 | No feeling? |
20519 | No? |
20519 | No? |
20519 | Now, Miss Nameless, you sit over there and tell me how come this distressing tableau? |
20519 | Now,he finished,"Shall I read you chapter and verse?" |
20519 | Odd theory? |
20519 | Oh, Steve--"And then again maybe you''re doing your best to lead my puzzled little mind away from what you consider a dangerous subject? |
20519 | Oh, he did, did he? |
20519 | Oh, it is n''t so worthless, is it? |
20519 | Oh? |
20519 | One thing,she suggested,"have you talked to the people who got you out from under your car yet?" |
20519 | Poor esper,she said softly,"you could n''t really know--""Know what?" |
20519 | Pushed around? |
20519 | See here,I snapped,"did you ever have a guest named Farrow?" |
20519 | See? |
20519 | Shall we have a drink and relax for a moment? |
20519 | Shock? |
20519 | Siberia? 20519 So have you any plans?" |
20519 | So how do I go out and get it? |
20519 | So long as someone does the work, huh? |
20519 | So now what happens? |
20519 | So what do I do to avert this future? |
20519 | So what do we do now? |
20519 | So what has this to do with Mekstrom''s Disease and supermen? |
20519 | So what tripped you up? |
20519 | So what''s this truth? |
20519 | So where is all this getting us? |
20519 | So who wrote me? |
20519 | So--"So what do you propose to do about this? |
20519 | So? |
20519 | Sort of when a locomotive falls on their head? |
20519 | Spokes? 20519 Steer?" |
20519 | Steve, what on Earth are you talking about? |
20519 | Steve,she said earnestly,"Believe me and let me be your--"# Better half?# I finished sourly. |
20519 | Steve,she said,"why do you do these things?" |
20519 | Successful? |
20519 | Such as--? |
20519 | Suppose,said Miss Macklin unexpectedly,"that it is impossible?" |
20519 | The full treatment--? 20519 The what?" |
20519 | Then explain the license, the date with the reverend, the hotel reservation? |
20519 | Then for the love of God, what do you expect of me? |
20519 | Then what is the difference? |
20519 | Then what is this all about? 20519 Then what the devil is wrong?" |
20519 | Then where the hell is she, Doc? |
20519 | Then why all this balderdash about shock, rejection, and so on? |
20519 | Then why was-- is-- she here so long? |
20519 | Then you begin to agree with me? |
20519 | They took to it willingly? |
20519 | Think I''ll have to learn all over? |
20519 | Think it''s safe for me to wait? |
20519 | To what? |
20519 | Trouble? |
20519 | True,said Mr. Macklin,"And yet, if they declared their intentions, how long would they last?" |
20519 | Understand what? |
20519 | Want to start something? |
20519 | Well, where do we go? |
20519 | Well, why in the devil do n''t you announce yourselves? |
20519 | Well, you''d still prefer to find her alive, would n''t you? |
20519 | Were you all working to innoculate me at Homestead, or were you really studying me to find out what made me a carrier instead of a victim? |
20519 | Were you? |
20519 | Were? |
20519 | Wha--? |
20519 | What am I? |
20519 | What are we looking for? |
20519 | What are you going to do? |
20519 | What cooks, Farrow? |
20519 | What did they find? |
20519 | What do they do with failures? |
20519 | What do you consider good evidence? |
20519 | What do you mean? |
20519 | What do you mean? |
20519 | What else can I do, Steve? |
20519 | What gives? |
20519 | What goes on? |
20519 | What good did you do there? |
20519 | What happened? |
20519 | What have you got that I have n''t got? |
20519 | What have you in mind for him? |
20519 | What is the meaning of all this? 20519 What may I do for you?" |
20519 | What next? |
20519 | What would you like me to just give up, Marian? 20519 What''s the treatment like?" |
20519 | What''s to talk over? |
20519 | What''s your trouble--? |
20519 | What--? |
20519 | What? |
20519 | Wheelchair? |
20519 | When would they have the chance? |
20519 | Where are you? |
20519 | Where have you been published? |
20519 | Where--? |
20519 | Which train? |
20519 | Which way do I go from here? 20519 Which way?" |
20519 | Which will it be? 20519 Who are your writers?" |
20519 | Who can? |
20519 | Who is n''t? |
20519 | Who''s to decide? |
20519 | Who-- me? |
20519 | Why could n''t I have joined her-- you--? |
20519 | Why did n''t they? |
20519 | Why dispute my word? |
20519 | Why do n''t you come on in? |
20519 | Why is he quietly sitting there in Mekstrom hide while he is overtly grieving over the painful death of his fellow man? |
20519 | Why not give it up? |
20519 | Why not? |
20519 | Why on earth would they be doing that? |
20519 | Why should I smoke my own? |
20519 | Why would you lie to me? |
20519 | Why, Mr. Cornell, what are you doing back here? |
20519 | Why? |
20519 | Why? |
20519 | Why? |
20519 | Why? |
20519 | Will Catherine find solace in Phillip''s arms? 20519 Will you get my car?" |
20519 | Will you wear it again, my dear? |
20519 | Wo n''t that be dangerous? |
20519 | Yeah? |
20519 | Yeah? |
20519 | Yeah? |
20519 | Yes, your honor? |
20519 | Yes? |
20519 | You did n''t happen to notice whether the mailbox flag was up, did you? |
20519 | You drove across the country before, remember? 20519 You mean that?" |
20519 | You realize that you''re probably as big a liability with us as you were trying to find us? |
20519 | You would n''t have wanted us not to help? 20519 You''d like to register a formal charge? |
20519 | You''ll be all right? |
20519 | You''ll listen to the bitter end? |
20519 | You''re certain that Phelps is a Mekstrom? |
20519 | You''re certain? |
20519 | You''re informing me? |
20519 | You''re not really a failure yet, are you, kid? |
20519 | You''re speaking of what? |
20519 | You''ve got something to add? |
20519 | Your folks at home? |
20519 | # And the fact that I was carrying a story that would get me popped into the nearest hatch for the incipient paranoid made it all right?# She nodded. |
20519 | # Can I see her?#"Lord no!" |
20519 | # Catherine?# I thought sharply, because most medicos are telepath, not perceptive. |
20519 | # Eight days? |
20519 | # Eleven o''clock.#"Going to call?" |
20519 | # Fingerprints?#"You''d been dating her." |
20519 | # How bad off am I?#"You''re a mess, Steve. |
20519 | # Mekstrom''s Disease--?# was my thought of horror. |
20519 | # Now-- why?# The telepath half of the team answered. |
20519 | # So they moved so fast that they could n''t even change their Highway Sign?# I thought worriedly. |
20519 | # Telepath?# He nodded imperceptibly. |
20519 | # Telepath?#"Yes, and a good one." |
20519 | # The laboratory again?# I thought. |
20519 | # What are they saying, Farrow?# I snapped mentally. |
20519 | # Who else is awake?#"Just me, so far,"she replied quietly. |
20519 | ''Ca n''t it wait until morning?'' |
20519 | 40?" |
20519 | After all, would you want Catherine to stay with you? |
20519 | Again, as apparently irrelevant, she said,"He''s a top grade telepath; he knows control--""Control--?" |
20519 | Am I not correct?" |
20519 | Am I not right?" |
20519 | Among the other incredible items--""Incredible?" |
20519 | And at this point the long long trail takes a fork, does n''t it? |
20519 | And beyond your basic suspicions, what can you prove?" |
20519 | And you?" |
20519 | And, most important of all... could Steve find that enemy before they made him vanish too? |
20519 | Another disappearance? |
20519 | Another week or two--?" |
20519 | Are you?" |
20519 | As I was saying, how can we credit much of your tale when you raved about one man lifting the car and the other hauling you out from underneath?" |
20519 | As a mechanical engineer, you are familiar with the line of reasoning that we non- engineering people call Occam''s Razor?" |
20519 | As we turned back South, I asked her,"Any more comment?" |
20519 | Away from or toward what? |
20519 | But do you have to prove it?" |
20519 | But if neither side can afford to have the secret come out, how come--?# I pondered this for a long time and admitted that it made no sense to me. |
20519 | But lacking your original plan, what are you going to do now?" |
20519 | But now--""Now what?" |
20519 | But our mutual desire to find some privacy in this modern fish- bowl had put me in the hospital and Catherine-- where--? |
20519 | But who would reject a block and tackle in favor of an impossibly strong man? |
20519 | But why did n''t someone stop to think of the poor benighted case who was in the accident ward? |
20519 | But why would Scholar Phelps be lying? |
20519 | But,#--how could anyone have taken a look at the scene of the accident and not seen traces of woman? |
20519 | Ca n''t you stop accusing yourself of some evil factor? |
20519 | Can you dig that fine, Officer? |
20519 | Can you make it alone, Steve? |
20519 | Car? |
20519 | Changing the subject, I asked,"but what about the others who just drop out of sight?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Cornell?" |
20519 | Could I have mis- heard you?" |
20519 | Could either side afford to let you walk into New Washington with the living proof of your Mekstrom Body?" |
20519 | Could n''t you do the usual job?#"You were pretty badly ground up, Steve. |
20519 | Did you dig her telephone number?" |
20519 | Do I turn with the missing spoke, or do I turn with the one that is not missing? |
20519 | Do you understand?" |
20519 | Doctor--?#"Sorry, Steve. |
20519 | Doctor? |
20519 | Eventually I held her up from me, tried to shake her gently, and said,"Now what''s the shooting all about, Farrow?" |
20519 | Ever heard of it?" |
20519 | Finally I said,"Marian, if you know that I''m not to be changed by logic or argument, why do you bother?" |
20519 | Fred Macklin interrupted,"Look, Dad, why are we bothering with all this guff?" |
20519 | From my first meeting with her I knew she was no telepath, so I bluntly said,"Where''s the regular girl? |
20519 | Going to amputate? |
20519 | Going to watch me writhing in pain as my infection climbs toward my vitals? |
20519 | Had Mr. Macklin given me the truth or was I being sold another shoddy bill of goods? |
20519 | Harrison?" |
20519 | Have n''t you any feelings?" |
20519 | Have you ever been put on an odious job, only to find that the job is really pleasant?" |
20519 | Have you ever heard of the psi- pattern changing before?__ Ah, and another item, that road sign with the busted spoke has been replaced. |
20519 | He shook his head unhappily as he said,"Why ca n''t you leave well- enough alone?" |
20519 | His voice rasped,"Indeed?" |
20519 | How did you get out?" |
20519 | How many people did you convince?" |
20519 | How the heck did you find us?" |
20519 | How would you select them?" |
20519 | I asked,"Phil, please tell me-- what is going on?" |
20519 | I broke the silence by saying,"What right has any man or collection of men to decide whether I, or anyone else, has the right to live or die?" |
20519 | I eyed him cynically and then added,"Or is it''Whom shall I kill?'' |
20519 | I flipped my lighter and let her inhale a big puff before I put the next question:"Why are you here and what goes on?" |
20519 | I had to grab myself to keep from yelling,"Unfortunate?" |
20519 | I interjected,"And what do we do about it?" |
20519 | I looked down at the hand and said,"Young lady, do you realize that you have an advanced case of Mekstrom''s Disease?" |
20519 | I posed the question:# Am I nuts?#"No, Steve,"she replied solemnly. |
20519 | I said hopefully,"I suppose as a Mekstrom I''ll eventually be qualified to join you?" |
20519 | I snapped,"Farrow, what grade of telepath is Catherine?" |
20519 | I stopped briefly a few hundred feet from the lead- in road and asked Miss Farrow:"What''s your telepath range? |
20519 | I took a fast stab:"Doctor, how does my flesh differ from yours?" |
20519 | I tried giving him stare for stare, but eventually I gave up and said,"So now where do we go?" |
20519 | I''ll call Step Two passably okay, but--? |
20519 | I''m a bit less than bright, but what have I done now?" |
20519 | I''ve been here eight days--?" |
20519 | I--""Will you come quietly, Mr. Cornell? |
20519 | If our child came as predicted, the first thing I''d do would be to have the child inoculate the father? |
20519 | If they wanted to take over the Earth, could n''t they do it by a show of force? |
20519 | Inwardly I grinned, and then with the same feeling as if I''d laughed out loud at a funeral, I said,"Through these steel bars?" |
20519 | Is n''t it wonderful, though? |
20519 | Is n''t that about it?" |
20519 | Is that it, Marian?" |
20519 | Is that right?" |
20519 | It changes them so--""But that''s what I''m headed for, is n''t it?" |
20519 | Just die? |
20519 | Keep it running in one direction, please?" |
20519 | Know what happens?" |
20519 | Know where they went?" |
20519 | Likely to bring''em out of Hiding?" |
20519 | Makes me sort of a male Typhoid Mary, does n''t it?" |
20519 | Maybe we all had it in for Catherine, and did her in?" |
20519 | Maybe--?" |
20519 | Me? |
20519 | More evidence to the fact that Miss Lewis was with you? |
20519 | Mr. Cornell, what is your reaction to Mekstrom''s Disease at this point?" |
20519 | Mullaney,''he asks me,''How would you like to be that strong?'' |
20519 | New?" |
20519 | Now do you understand?" |
20519 | Now, Mr. Cornell, how about this theory of yours?" |
20519 | Now, Mr. Cornell, may I see that postcard?" |
20519 | Now, Steve, ready to steer?" |
20519 | Now, suppose you tell me what happened?" |
20519 | Now, what gives?" |
20519 | Officer-- are you telepath or perceptive?" |
20519 | Okay?" |
20519 | Or a gunny sack weighted down with an anvil? |
20519 | Or are you going to cut it off inch by inch and watch me suffer?" |
20519 | Or did the Highways make you indulge in a running competition?" |
20519 | Or did you come second class mail?" |
20519 | Or did you just pick up the ones you wanted? |
20519 | Or do they drum you out of the corps?" |
20519 | Or had he spun me a yarn just to get me out of his house without a riot? |
20519 | Or shall I lay one along your jaw and carry you?" |
20519 | Or shall I put the big arm on you?" |
20519 | Or would you rather wait until my parents are cured? |
20519 | Or,"I went on bitterly,"is it the Hypocritic Oath?" |
20519 | Or,"she added slyly,"have you been trained to prepare a patient for the full treatment?" |
20519 | Painfully?" |
20519 | Perhaps of kidnapping, or maybe illegal restraint?" |
20519 | Ran twelfth in your class at Illinois, did n''t you?" |
20519 | Relax, will you Steve? |
20519 | Right?" |
20519 | Right?#( Farrow nodded slowly.) |
20519 | Sensible?" |
20519 | Shall I please everybody by taking a bite of my hip- pocket artillery sights whilst testing the trigger pull with one forefinger? |
20519 | She slipped her hands out sidewise on the backs of their seats, put her face between them and said,"Anybody got a cigarette, fellows?" |
20519 | She tried:"Mr. Cornell? |
20519 | She went on,"I suppose you would not be happy with the usual press release?" |
20519 | So how long have I been here?#"Eight days." |
20519 | So that you could watch her die at the rate of a sixty- fourth of an inch each hour?" |
20519 | Something that really is not so?" |
20519 | Somewhere, Old Adam must have been slightly to blame--?" |
20519 | Sounds reasonable, does n''t it?" |
20519 | Steve, can you hear me?" |
20519 | Steve, if James Thorndyke had asked me to jump off the roof, I''d have asked him''what direction?'' |
20519 | Steve-- what are we up against?" |
20519 | Stock? |
20519 | Tell me, did anyone see you leave that apartment with Miss Lewis?" |
20519 | Tell me, fellow, where are you now?" |
20519 | That about it?" |
20519 | The door opened and a big stubble- faced gorilla gazed out and snarled at me:"Are you the persistent character?" |
20519 | The high jump? |
20519 | The next awkward question comes up: What are we going to do with me?" |
20519 | Then she looked up at me with troubled eyes and asked,"What are you going to do now, Steve?" |
20519 | Then we cracked up.#"What did it?" |
20519 | There ai n''t no woman in this room, see?" |
20519 | This is not my own idea alone, but the combined ideas of a number of people who have studied the human mind--""In other words, I''m nuts?" |
20519 | To stand there and watch the tears in the eyes of a woman as she asks you,"But ca n''t you remember, son?" |
20519 | To the door down there-- three beyond the one you''re perceiving now-- is there a wheelchair there?" |
20519 | Understand?" |
20519 | Understand?" |
20519 | Well, have you ever eyed the human race in slightly another manner?" |
20519 | What about the character in 913?" |
20519 | What can I do for you?" |
20519 | What could I say to that? |
20519 | What do I have to do to gain this benefit? |
20519 | What does he say?" |
20519 | What happens next?" |
20519 | What have I done, other than to be present just before several people turn up missing? |
20519 | What is your next move?" |
20519 | What possible justification have you for putting me through my jumps?" |
20519 | What shall we do next?" |
20519 | What should I do? |
20519 | What the hell did I know, really? |
20519 | What was Phelps getting at? |
20519 | What was behind the spreading plague called Mekstrom''s Disease? |
20519 | What we must know now is: Is Steve Cornell, the Mekstrom Carrier, now a non- carrier because he has contracted the disease?" |
20519 | What were the oddly sinister symbols along otherwise ordinary roads? |
20519 | What would it be now?" |
20519 | What would you like to know?" |
20519 | What''s cooking?" |
20519 | When he saw the stuff taking hold, Thorndyke asked,"Steve, just who is Catherine?" |
20519 | Where is?" |
20519 | Where''s my nurse?" |
20519 | Who could?" |
20519 | Who do I have to kill?" |
20519 | Who ever hunted ducks from a canoe, dressed in windbreakers and hightopped boots? |
20519 | Who was the elusive enemy with powers even beyond those ESP had bestowed on mankind? |
20519 | Why bother to ask me how I feel?" |
20519 | Why must I fumble my way through this as I''ve fumbled through everything else?" |
20519 | Why were there"blank"spots where telepathy did n''t work? |
20519 | Why, then, had Catherine come here to place herself in their hands? |
20519 | Will Steve catch Mekstrom''s Disease? |
20519 | Will you help bring to the Earth''s People the blessing that is now denied them?" |
20519 | Without knowing that I was asking, I cried out,"But why?" |
20519 | You ask me,''am I going to live or die?'' |
20519 | You do n''t mind?" |
20519 | You''re no pinup boy, Steve, but-- and this may come as a shock to you-- women do n''t put one- tenth the stock in pulchritude that men do? |
20519 | You''re not endowing them with extraterrestrial origin, are you?" |
20519 | _ Lenient--?_"However, unless you are able to pay, I have no recourse but to exact the prison sentence of ninety days. |
8954 | ''Can you take me to any place where I can get a change of dry clothes,''he says,''without half a dozen people knowin''it?'' 8954 ''Can your mother keep a secret?'' |
8954 | ''What''s the nearest town to this upon the London road?'' 8954 ''You have n''t been and fell into the fish- pond, have you, sir?'' |
8954 | A dark- brown beard? |
8954 | A grief? |
8954 | A little out of his mind? |
8954 | A novel? |
8954 | A row at the door, sir? |
8954 | A solemn confidence, to be violated under no circumstances? |
8954 | About the � secret? |
8954 | Alicia, my darling, what is it? |
8954 | Alone? 8954 Always as cheerful as she is now?" |
8954 | And do you suppose I care for it? |
8954 | And do you think, Clara, that I should think any sacrifice too great a one if it were made for you? 8954 And if you receive no answer?" |
8954 | And is here still, I suppose? |
8954 | And it was quite out? |
8954 | And left again immediately? |
8954 | And my lady, sir, was she quite well? |
8954 | And not since? |
8954 | And she came from London? |
8954 | And she is very pretty? |
8954 | And she was an orphan, I believe? |
8954 | And what do you infer from all this? |
8954 | And what have you been doing since you came home? |
8954 | And what, my dear? |
8954 | And you do not believe in his having sailed for Australia? |
8954 | And you go back to Mount Stanning with them this afternoon? |
8954 | And you refuse to tell me what it is that you have discovered? |
8954 | And you succeeded? |
8954 | And you tell me to stop? |
8954 | And your answer? |
8954 | And your motive is a worthy one? |
8954 | Another way? |
8954 | Are you glad to see me, Luke? |
8954 | Are you going to bed, George? |
8954 | Are you, Alicia? |
8954 | As gay and light- hearted as ever, sir? |
8954 | At the Castle Inn? |
8954 | At what hour might you wish the man to go? |
8954 | Because what, my dear? |
8954 | Bob,he said,"where are we?" |
8954 | Bother Phoebe,cried Mr. Marks,"who''s a talkin''of Phoebe? |
8954 | But do we accept him � yes or no? 8954 But have you never thought him eccentric?" |
8954 | But he was eccentric? |
8954 | But how do you know that the announcement was a false one? |
8954 | But in all that time did you never write to your wife? |
8954 | But is there any one else whom you love? |
8954 | But is there no one you love in England? 8954 But she has not gone where she''ll be cruelly treated; where she''ll be ill- used?" |
8954 | But she laughed it off like, and says,''Lor''Luke, what could have put such fancies into your head?'' 8954 But tell me,"said my lady, with an entire change of tone,"what could have induced you to come up to this dismal place?" |
8954 | But what about, my love? |
8954 | But what did he say, Lucy? |
8954 | But what if the handwriting is a very uncommon one, presenting marked peculiarities by which it may be recognized among a hundred? |
8954 | But why do you want him to leave? |
8954 | But why not take care of him yourself, George? |
8954 | But why not? |
8954 | But why should you go to- night, my lady? |
8954 | But you are not seriously alarmed about him, are you? |
8954 | But you can not tell me the date of her leaving? |
8954 | But you can not tell where she went on leaving here? |
8954 | But you have communicated with her? |
8954 | But you have not dined, perhaps? 8954 But you were with him while he examined the locks, I suppose?" |
8954 | But you wo n''t be too abrupt, dear? 8954 But you''ll have a bit of dinner first, sir?" |
8954 | By itself, very little,replied Robert Audley;"but with the help of other evidence �""What evidence?" |
8954 | Can I do anything for you, ma''am? 8954 Can I send a message from here to London?" |
8954 | Can you call to mind my bringing some one home here one night, while Atkinsons was stackin''the last o''their corn? |
8954 | Can you tell me how long Mr. Maldon and his daughter remained at Wildernsea after Mr. Talboys left them? |
8954 | Can you tell me where Miss Graham came from when she entered your household? |
8954 | Captain Maldon, sir? |
8954 | Curiosity? |
8954 | Dare I defy him? |
8954 | Dare I? 8954 Dawson is a good fellow, is n''t he?" |
8954 | Did I, my love? |
8954 | Did Mr. Maldon hear from his daughter after she had left Wildernsea? |
8954 | Did n''t I tell you to rememer that day? 8954 Did she speak of me?" |
8954 | Did she tell you? |
8954 | Did you ever hear anything particular about her? |
8954 | Did you ever hear that she was eccentric � what people call''odd?'' |
8954 | Did you? |
8954 | Dislike you? 8954 Do I?" |
8954 | Do the birds annoy you, George? 8954 Do you hear? |
8954 | Do you know that the day after to- morrow is the 1st of September? 8954 Do you know what I am thinking of, as I look at you in the dim light of this room? |
8954 | Do you know what I am thinking of? |
8954 | Do you know, Lady Audley, that Mr. Talboys, the young widower, has been here asking for Sir Michael and you? |
8954 | Do you know, Phoebe, I have heard some people say that you and I are alike? |
8954 | Do you know, my dear Miss Graham,said Mrs. Dawson,"I think you ought to consider yourself a remarkably lucky girl?" |
8954 | Do you remember a lieutenant in the navy, on half- pay, I believe, at that time, called Maldon? |
8954 | Do you remember the gentleman that came down to Audley with me, Smithers? |
8954 | Do you remember them? |
8954 | Do you remember what Macbeth tells his physician, my lady? |
8954 | Do you think I am a baby, that you may juggle with and deceive me � what is it? 8954 Do you think I can read French novels and smoke mild Turkish until I am three- score- and- ten, Miss Talboys?" |
8954 | Do you wish the time shorter? |
8954 | Does my cigar annoy you, Miss Morley? |
8954 | Does your friend send any address? |
8954 | Eh, what? |
8954 | For a time? |
8954 | For town? |
8954 | George � George who? |
8954 | George,said Robert, after watching him for some time,"are you frightened of the lightning?" |
8954 | Go and put the bar up yourself, then, ca n''t you? |
8954 | Had I really now better hold my tongue to the last? |
8954 | Had I? |
8954 | Had anything happened to the poor, dear gentleman? |
8954 | Had we not better ask at one of the hotels about a Mrs. Talboys, George? |
8954 | Has Sir Michael Audley lately married, then? |
8954 | Has she baffled me by some piece of womanly jugglery? 8954 Haunted?" |
8954 | Have I done right? |
8954 | Have I laughed at the follies of weak men all my life, and am I to be more foolish than the weakest of them at last? 8954 Have you any letters of your brother''s, Miss Talboys?" |
8954 | Have you anything more to say to me, Robert? |
8954 | Have you ever studied your cousin''s character, Alicia? |
8954 | Have you taken Lady Audley back to the Court? |
8954 | He has gone on the continent, has he? |
8954 | He has not been very ill, has he? |
8954 | He is here, then? |
8954 | He wanted to talk to me, he said, and I went, and he said such horrible things that �"What horrible things, Lucy? |
8954 | He was a stranger to you, my lady, was he not? |
8954 | Heaven help us all,he muttered once;"is this paper with which no attorney has had any hand to be my first brief?" |
8954 | How can you ask a poor little woman about such horrid things? |
8954 | How can you ask me such a question? 8954 How do you mean''particular?''" |
8954 | How if she had taken advantage of George''s absence to win a richer husband? 8954 How many years have you lived here?" |
8954 | How should you know that I loved him? 8954 I ca n''t tell you nothin''you do n''t know?" |
8954 | I cut this off when she lay in her coffin,she said,"poor dear?" |
8954 | I dare say you''re hungry, Georgey? |
8954 | I do wish to send a message; will you manage it for me, Richards? |
8954 | I know that I shall distress you � or you will laugh at me, and then �"Laugh at you? 8954 I must give you the last sovereign in my purse, but what of that? |
8954 | I only sent for you to ask if anybody has been here; that is to say, if anybody has applied to you for the key of my rooms to- day � any lady? |
8954 | I say again, what''s a hundred pound? |
8954 | I think I am going to faint, Phoebe,she said;"where can I get some cold water?" |
8954 | I wonder what she says to me? |
8954 | I wonder where it was they met; I wonder where it was that he looked into her cruel face and taxed her with her falsehood? |
8954 | I wonder whether settlers in the backwoods of America feel as solitary and strange as I feel to- night? |
8954 | I''d better show Mrs. Marks out, my lady, had n''t I? |
8954 | If I do n''t find him there I shall go to Southampton,he said;"and if I do n''t find him there �""What then?" |
8954 | If the baker ca n''t find her, how should I find her? |
8954 | In my room, my lady? |
8954 | Influence me against you? |
8954 | Is Sir Michael gone? |
8954 | Is it interesting? |
8954 | Is it me the flying female wants? |
8954 | Is it not about your own � health � that you wish to consult me? |
8954 | Is it the gardener? |
8954 | Is n''t that nice? |
8954 | Is n''t there a secret passage, or an old oak chest, or something of that kind, somewhere about the place, Alicia? |
8954 | Is papa coming to dinner? |
8954 | Is she at home to- night? |
8954 | Is there any room in which I can talk to you alone? |
8954 | Is this all you have to say to me, Robert? |
8954 | It is this: Did Miss Graham leave any books or knick- knacks, or any other kind of property whatever, behind her, when she left your establishment? |
8954 | Knew that he was coming? |
8954 | Lady? 8954 Lord, Luke,"she said,"how can''ee ask me such questions? |
8954 | Lucy, what do you mean? |
8954 | Lucy, you heard me? |
8954 | Madam finds herself very much fatigued? |
8954 | May I ask how much you know of that lady''s history since her departure from your house? |
8954 | May I ask who that person is? |
8954 | Mr. George Talboys returned to town? |
8954 | My Uncle Robert? |
8954 | My dear Mr. Talboys, why do you think of these things? 8954 My dear girl, what are you thinking of?" |
8954 | My lady has left the Court, I hear, sir? |
8954 | My lady,she cried,"you are not going out to- night?" |
8954 | My room is ready, I suppose, Richards? |
8954 | Never to come back, sir? |
8954 | No; not all the time? |
8954 | Nor from his mother''s family? |
8954 | Not wasting your time, I hope? |
8954 | Now, Phoebe,she said,"it is three miles from here to Mount Stanning, is n''t it?" |
8954 | Of what intention? |
8954 | Oh, my dear love, how can I tell you? |
8954 | Oh, what am I doing? 8954 Perhaps you''d like some lunch?" |
8954 | Pull down this house? |
8954 | Quite forgot what? |
8954 | Shall I bring you some dinner here, sir, before you go up- stairs? |
8954 | Shall I go down to Southampton,he thought,"and endeavor to discover the history of the woman who died at Ventnor? |
8954 | Shall I go to look for your brother? |
8954 | Shall I take off the label? |
8954 | Shall I tell him you are here? |
8954 | Shall I tell the truth � the horrible, ghastly truth? 8954 Shall I tell you by whose agency the destruction of the Castle Inn was brought about, my lady?" |
8954 | Shall I tell you the story of my friend''s disappearance as I read that story, my lady? |
8954 | Shall I tell you? |
8954 | Shall we both go, dearest? 8954 Shall we try the secret passage, George?" |
8954 | She''s been very kind, has she? |
8954 | Since the year fifty- three? |
8954 | So you have come back to us, truant? |
8954 | Sure I never knocked, Mister Audley, but walked straight in with my kay �"Then who did knock? 8954 That I can not do until �""Until when?" |
8954 | The first husband disappeared � how and when? 8954 The lady''s first husband is missing,"he said, with a strange emphasis on the word �"you think that he is dead?" |
8954 | The man is very bad, then? |
8954 | The person is a gentleman � is he not, my lady? |
8954 | The revelation made by the patient to the physician is, I believe, as sacred as the confession of a penitent to his priest? |
8954 | The what, ma''am? |
8954 | Then will you tell me at what date the young lady first came to you? |
8954 | Then you can give me no clew to Miss Graham''s previous history? |
8954 | Then you did n''t see any one at the door, or on the stairs? |
8954 | Then you do n''t particularly care to live at Mount Stanning? |
8954 | There were no lives lost in the fire at Mount Stanning? |
8954 | To- day? |
8954 | Trust me to do what? |
8954 | WHAT is this place, Robert Audley? |
8954 | Was ever anything so provoking? |
8954 | Was he dressed in gray? |
8954 | Was he eccentric � I mean to say, peculiar in his habits, like your cousin? |
8954 | Was it that? |
8954 | Well? |
8954 | Were they poor? |
8954 | What about? |
8954 | What am I in her hands? |
8954 | What are we to do, George? |
8954 | What are you blubbering for, lass? |
8954 | What are you going to do with the child? |
8954 | What are you reading there, Alicia? |
8954 | What are you talking of? 8954 What can I do?" |
8954 | What can be the matter? |
8954 | What can be the meaning of all this? |
8954 | What circumstantial evidence? |
8954 | What could Robert have to say to you? |
8954 | What did he say, Lucy? |
8954 | What do you care what becomes of me, or whom I marry? 8954 What do you mean by all this?" |
8954 | What do you mean by that? |
8954 | What do you mean, girl? |
8954 | What do you mean, my darling? |
8954 | What do you mean? |
8954 | What do you mean? |
8954 | What do you mean? |
8954 | What do you mean? |
8954 | What do you think Major Melville told me when he called here yesterday, Alicia? |
8954 | What does all this mean? 8954 What does he mean by these absurd goings- on? |
8954 | What does it matter? 8954 What does it mean?" |
8954 | What has happened to upset him so? |
8954 | What has kept you so long away from me? |
8954 | What has this to do with my friend? 8954 What have I done to you, Robert Audley,"she cried, passionately �"what have I done to you that you should hate me so?" |
8954 | What have I done? |
8954 | What have you been doing all this morning? |
8954 | What have you been doing since you came home, my dear? |
8954 | What if I answer no? |
8954 | What if this woman''s hellish power of dissimulation should be stronger than the truth, and crush him? 8954 What in goodness''name is the matter with my Cousin Robert?" |
8954 | What is it, Lucy? |
8954 | What is it, Luke, deary? |
8954 | What is one of the strangest diagnostics of madness � what is the first appalling sign of mental aberration? 8954 What is that to you, Mr. Robert Audley?" |
8954 | What is the matter with you? |
8954 | What letter? |
8954 | What pretty lady? |
8954 | What reason have you to wish to know more? |
8954 | What reason? |
8954 | What shall I tell him? |
8954 | What should he be but a stranger? |
8954 | What the devil am I doing in this galere? |
8954 | What was she but a servant like me? 8954 What would become of this place if my uncle were to die?" |
8954 | What''s she up to there? |
8954 | What''s the gal a- sayin'', there? |
8954 | What''s the good of being rich if one has no one to help spend one''s money? |
8954 | What''s the matter? |
8954 | What''s this? |
8954 | What''s too horrible? |
8954 | What, Robert,cried Alicia,"you surely wo n''t go away without seeing papa?" |
8954 | What, has he come? |
8954 | What, that? |
8954 | What? |
8954 | When his arm was dressed,continued Luke,"he says to the surgeon,''Can you give me a pencil to write something before I go away?'' |
8954 | When? |
8954 | Where are you going to take me? |
8954 | Where are you going? |
8954 | Where''s my gold watch? 8954 Which exists only in your mind?" |
8954 | Who is it by? |
8954 | Who is that handsome young man I caught tête- a- tête with you, Clara? |
8954 | Who is that? |
8954 | Who said it was the doctor''s stuff I wanted? |
8954 | Who said that my mind was diseased? |
8954 | Who sent you here? |
8954 | Who would have been sorry for me? 8954 Who would have believed that Audley church could boast such an organ?" |
8954 | Who would have thought that I could have grown so fond of the fellow,he muttered,"or feel so lonely without him? |
8954 | Who � who has made you hysterical? |
8954 | Who''s Billy? |
8954 | Who''s dead? |
8954 | Why ca n''t women dress according to their station? 8954 Why did he send you?" |
8954 | Why do I go on with this? |
8954 | Why do n''t you take th''chile''way, er wash''s face? 8954 Why do you bring me to this horrible place to frighten me out of my poor wits?" |
8954 | Why do you torment me about this George Talboys, who happens to have taken it into his head to keep out of your way for a few months? 8954 Why does n''t she run away? |
8954 | Why is he sorry, then? |
8954 | Why not? |
8954 | Why should he not be mad? |
8954 | Why stupid? |
8954 | Why was it that I saw some strange mystery in my friend''s disappearance? 8954 Why, I never saw this before,"she said;"I wonder what there is in it?" |
8954 | Why, in heaven''s name, what has the man done with himself? |
8954 | Why, my dear Robert, should we be so ceremonious toward each other? 8954 Why, what can have become of the man?" |
8954 | Why, what could you find to say to Mr. Dawson, or he to say to you? |
8954 | Why, what was she in Mr. Dawson''s house only three months ago? |
8954 | Why? |
8954 | Why? |
8954 | Will it annoy you if I make notes of your replies to my questions? |
8954 | Will you be so good as to let me have a little water and a piece of sponge? |
8954 | Will you carry that to the nearest hotel for me? |
8954 | Will you come into the lime- walk, Lady Audley? |
8954 | Will you come with me and help me put up the bar? |
8954 | Will you do me the favor to answer them without asking my motive in making such inquiries? |
8954 | Will you let me see them? |
8954 | Will you take a walk with me in the quadrangle? |
8954 | Will you tell me more about this Lady Audley, Fanny? |
8954 | Will you walk with me inside the plantation? |
8954 | Wo n''t you come? |
8954 | Would it now? |
8954 | Would other people live in the old house, and sit under the low oak ceilings in the homely familiar rooms? |
8954 | Would you believe it, Sir Michael? |
8954 | Would you object to a cigar, Mrs. Marks? 8954 Yes, I tell you; why do you worry me about your candle? |
8954 | Yes, and then �? |
8954 | Yes, it is pretty, is it not? 8954 Yes, sir,""Then why, in goodness''name, did you make that row at the door, when you had a key with you all the time?" |
8954 | Yes; except that Alicia will accompany you? |
8954 | Yes; is there any door, leading through some of the other rooms, by which we can contrive to get into hers? |
8954 | Yes? |
8954 | You always thought that I should take him away? |
8954 | You are aware that Mrs. Talboys left rather abruptly? |
8954 | You are growing more like your father every day, Georgey; and you''re growing quite a man, too,he said;"would you like to go to school?" |
8954 | You are nervous, my lady? |
8954 | You are not going to leave England? |
8954 | You are sure he was going to stay at the Castle to night? |
8954 | You are sure my cigar does not annoy you, Lady Audley? |
8954 | You believe that I am mistaken in thinking your son dead? |
8954 | You do n''t mean to say that you''ve forgotten George Talboys? |
8954 | You do n''t mind the pipe, do you, George? |
8954 | You do n''t remember him, then? |
8954 | You do not think him very ill? |
8954 | You had no reference, then, from Miss Graham? |
8954 | You have come straight from the Court, sir? |
8954 | You have nothing further to tell me? |
8954 | You knew Lady Audley when she was Miss Lucy Graham, did you not? |
8954 | You knew nothing of his intention, then? |
8954 | You know Audley Court? |
8954 | You know who I am, then? |
8954 | You mean the Mr. Talboys who went to Australia? |
8954 | You surely are not in love with the awkward, ugly creature are you, Phoebe? |
8954 | You think he''ll murder you, do you? 8954 You think she had secrets?" |
8954 | You understand? 8954 You was oncommon fond of that gent as disappeared at the Court, warn''t you, sir?" |
8954 | You will come and dine with us to- morrow, and bring your interesting friend? |
8954 | You will go with me? |
8954 | You wo n''t forget? |
8954 | You would never let any one influence you against me, would you, dear? |
8954 | You''ll let me go with you? |
8954 | You''ll not try to deprive me of your father''s affection? |
8954 | You''ll take some hot brandy- and- water, George? |
8954 | You''re a prett''creature to call yoursel''sensible woman? |
8954 | You''re not connected with � with the tally business, are you, sir? |
8954 | Your beautiful husband will sit up for you, I suppose, Phoebe? |
8954 | ''P''raps not,''the young chap answers, quiet enough,''but I can write with the other,''''Ca n''t I write it for you?'' |
8954 | ''Very well, then,''he says;''look here; you know Audley Court?'' |
8954 | ''Who was it that walked off; and what was the story which the locksmith was telling when I interrupted him at that sentence? |
8954 | ''Whose lady''s maid?'' |
8954 | 9 Crescent Villas a year and a half ago?" |
8954 | Again he heard that solemn question:"Shall you or I find my brother''s murderer?" |
8954 | All the other servants have gone to bed, then, I suppose?" |
8954 | All to himself did I say? |
8954 | Am I bound to discover how and where he died? |
8954 | Am I coming nearer to it now, slowly but surely? |
8954 | Am I tied to a wheel, and must I go with its every revolution, let it take me where it will? |
8954 | And could he withdraw now from the investigation in which he found himself involved? |
8954 | And then he says,''Do you know Mr. Audley, as is nevy to Sir Michael?'' |
8954 | And yet why should I now?" |
8954 | Are there wolves where you live?" |
8954 | Are they in good order, Phoebe?" |
8954 | Are women merciful, or loving, or kind in proportion to their beauty and grace? |
8954 | Are you going mad, Mr. Audley, and do you select me as the victim of your monomania? |
8954 | Are you going to wait here for your friends, Miss Talboys?" |
8954 | Audley?" |
8954 | Audley?" |
8954 | Audley?" |
8954 | Audley?" |
8954 | Audley?" |
8954 | Audley?" |
8954 | But did either of them answer to the description of my friend?" |
8954 | But had she heard that he had been in danger, and that he had distinguished himself by the rescue of a drunken boor? |
8954 | But then, what could an ignorant, heavy dragoon like me do with such a child? |
8954 | But was it the footstep? |
8954 | But what if she sends me away to fight the battle, and marries some hulking country squire while my back is turned?" |
8954 | But when was he likely to return? |
8954 | But where could I go? |
8954 | But, my darling, why were you so frightened by Robert''s wild talk? |
8954 | By what process had he so rapidly arrived at the young man''s secret desire? |
8954 | By what right could I accept such a sacrifice?" |
8954 | Could he refuse to do her bidding, however painful its accomplishment might be? |
8954 | Could he stop now? |
8954 | Could it be that he was returning to his uncle''s house without the woman who had reigned in it for nearly two years as queen and mistress? |
8954 | D''yer want to ruin me? |
8954 | D''yer want to''stroy me? |
8954 | Dang me, Phoebe, I suppose when we''ve saved money enough between us to buy a bit of a farm, you''ll be parleyvooing to the cows?" |
8954 | Dawson?" |
8954 | Dawson?" |
8954 | Did Robert say this, Lucy?" |
8954 | Did he really say this, Lucy, or did you misunderstand him?" |
8954 | Did n''t I tell you as the time might come when you''d be called upon to bear witness about it, and put upon your Bible oath about it? |
8954 | Did n''t I tell you that, mother?" |
8954 | Did she trace every sin of her life back to its true source? |
8954 | Do n''t you?" |
8954 | Do they feel a heroic fervor of virtuous indignation, or do they suffer this dull anguish which gnaws my vitals as I talk to this helpless woman?" |
8954 | Do we marry the baronet, and is poor Cousin Bob to be the best man at the wedding?" |
8954 | Do you dislike me?" |
8954 | Do you follow me?" |
8954 | Do you know how I escaped perishing in that destruction?" |
8954 | Do you know the pretty lady?" |
8954 | Do you know what I infer from this?" |
8954 | Do you know what inductive evidence is, Miss Audley?" |
8954 | Do you know what it is to wrestle with a mad- woman? |
8954 | Do you know, Alicia, that madness is more often transmitted from father to daughter, and from mother to daughter than from mother to son? |
8954 | Do you know, Phoebe Marks, that my jewel- case has been half emptied to meet your claims? |
8954 | Do you remember how long it is since she came to us at Crescent Villas?" |
8954 | Do you remember that, mother?" |
8954 | Do you remember the seventh of last September?" |
8954 | Do you remember when I was at work upon Atkinson''s farm; before I was married you know, and when I was livin''down here along of you?" |
8954 | Do you remember?" |
8954 | Do you see the wet streaming down your coat- sleeves? |
8954 | Do you suppose I would let you go alone?" |
8954 | Do you think I am to be put off by feminine prevarication � by womanly trickery? |
8954 | Do you think I shall fail to discover those missing links? |
8954 | Do you think I will suffer myself to be baffled? |
8954 | Do you think papa will go to- night?" |
8954 | Do you think that I could ask you to make such a sacrifice for me, or for those I love?" |
8954 | Do you think the gifts which you have played against fortune are to hold you exempt from retribution? |
8954 | Do you think there is anything I would not do to lighten any sorrow of my father''s? |
8954 | Do you think there is anything I would not suffer if my suffering could lighten his?" |
8954 | Do you think, then, if murder is in him, you would be any safer as his wife? |
8954 | Do you want to drive me mad? |
8954 | Do you wonder, then, that when I hear that his young life has been ended by the hand of treachery, that I wish to see vengeance done upon the traitor? |
8954 | Does Mrs. Vincent owe you money, too?" |
8954 | For any consideration? |
8954 | Ha, Alicia, is that you?" |
8954 | Had any of the passengers entered their names within a short time of the vessel''s sailing? |
8954 | Had he not lately summoned to his side that ghostly company which of all companionship is the most tenacious? |
8954 | Had she heard of the fire at the Castle Inn? |
8954 | Had she not her own terrors, her own soul- absorbing perplexities to usurp every thought of which her brain was capable? |
8954 | Has my beauty brought me to this? |
8954 | Have I ever been really wicked, I wonder?" |
8954 | Have I plotted and schemed to shield myself and laid awake in the long deadly nights, trembling to think of my dangers, for this? |
8954 | Have you any proofs to offer against this evidence? |
8954 | Have you heard her maiden name?" |
8954 | Have you seen him lately?" |
8954 | He closed the door carefully behind him before he continued:"Alicia, can I trust you?" |
8954 | He has gone to sleep at Mount Stanning, then, I suppose? |
8954 | He is going away; but he must not go alone, must he, Alicia?" |
8954 | He is not too ill to receive me, I suppose?" |
8954 | He is some relation of Sir Michael Audley, I suppose?" |
8954 | He was thinking as he spoke to her:"How much does she guess? |
8954 | How could he answer this direct question? |
8954 | How could he ever look into her earnest eyes, and yet withhold the truth? |
8954 | How could she have done otherwise than hear of it in such a place as Mount Stanning? |
8954 | How do I know that it was not some one with a message or a letter from George Talboys?" |
8954 | How do you know the fire is at Mount Stanning? |
8954 | How if she had married again, and wished to throw my poor friend off the scent by this false announcement?" |
8954 | How is it all to end?" |
8954 | How long is that nephew of yours going to stay here?" |
8954 | How many knots an hour was the vessel doing? |
8954 | How many lies he should have to tell, or how much equivocation he must use in order to keep the truth from her? |
8954 | How much does she suspect?" |
8954 | How much is this debt?" |
8954 | How much should he tell, or how little, of the dark history of his uncle''s second wife? |
8954 | How shall I satisfy you next?" |
8954 | How should I dare to betray my love for him in that house when I knew that even a sister''s affection would be turned to his disadvantage? |
8954 | How should any one think that I loved him, when I have never had power to give him a welcome beneath that roof, or a kindly word from his father? |
8954 | How should he meet Clara Talboys now that he knew the secret of her brother''s fate? |
8954 | How should such a sluggish ditch- pond of an intellect as his ever work itself into a tempest? |
8954 | How then could he dare to meet her with that secret held back fom her? |
8954 | How then?" |
8954 | How then?" |
8954 | How unequal the fight must be between us, and how can I ever hope to conquer against the strength of her beauty and her wisdom?" |
8954 | How was he to deal with this epicure of five years old, who rejected bread and milk and asked for veal cutlets? |
8954 | How was it? |
8954 | How � how should he be dead?" |
8954 | I ai n''t going to murder you, am I?" |
8954 | I believe that I know by whom, but I will take no step to set my doubts at rest, or to confirm my fears''? |
8954 | I hate you, and you hate me; and if you met me in the dark in some narrow passage you would fly at my throat and strangle me, would n''t you?" |
8954 | I may tell you where she lives, then, sir? |
8954 | I shall see you again before we go, Robert?" |
8954 | I suppose you are fascinated as well as everybody else?" |
8954 | I would not have spoken as I did before you had I known �""Had you known that I loved my brother?" |
8954 | If George had re- entered either city alive, how was it that no notice had ever been taken of that advertisement? |
8954 | If I could find that letter, it might be dated, you know � mightn''t it, now?" |
8954 | In what manner do these reasons influence you?" |
8954 | In which room does Mr. Audley sleep?" |
8954 | Is it a bargain, Lucy?" |
8954 | Is it so wonderful that some wayfarers drop asleep under the hedges, scarcely caring to toil onward on a journey that leads to no abiding habitation? |
8954 | Is it to be so, Alicia, or not?" |
8954 | Is that a sufficient answer, Alicia?" |
8954 | Is that all you have to say?" |
8954 | Is the radius to grow narrower day by day until it draws a dark circle around the home of those I love? |
8954 | Is there no one you love looking out for your arrival?" |
8954 | Is there no other way of getting into the room, Alicia?" |
8954 | Is your husband such a precious bargain that you should be groveling there, lamenting and groaning for him? |
8954 | It is a great triumph, is it not � a wonderful victory? |
8954 | It is what I said just now, is it not?" |
8954 | It was there that you made some discovery, then?" |
8954 | It was yours, was it not?" |
8954 | Lady Audley, did you ever study the theory of circumstantial evidence?" |
8954 | Lucy, can you imagine for a moment that I have any higher wish than to promote your happiness? |
8954 | M?" |
8954 | Maldon?" |
8954 | Maldon?" |
8954 | Maldon?" |
8954 | Maloney?" |
8954 | Marks?" |
8954 | May I rely upon that?" |
8954 | Mother, give us down that tin box on the shelf over against the chest of drawers, will you?" |
8954 | Must they wait patiently till George grew weary of his exile, and returned to his friends who loved him? |
8954 | Oh, George Talboys, George Talboys, am I ever to come any nearer to the secret of your fate? |
8954 | One place was the same to him as another; anywhere out of England; what did he care where? |
8954 | Or can I sit down here to- night and say I have done my duty to my missing friend, I have searched for him patiently, but I have searched in vain? |
8954 | Please may I have a veal cutlet, with egg and bread- crumb, you know, and lemon- juice you know?" |
8954 | Plowson?" |
8954 | Robert, what has happened?" |
8954 | Shall I ever grow old, Phoebe? |
8954 | Shall I go to that miserable old man, and charge him with his share in the shameful trick which I believe to have been played upon my poor friend? |
8954 | Shall I grow old like this, I wonder, with every minute of my life seeming like an hour?" |
8954 | Shall I ring and tell them to bring you something a little more substantial than biscuits and transparent bread and butter?" |
8954 | Shall I sell my Marie Antoinette cabinet, or my pompadour china, Leroy''s and Benson''s ormolu clocks, or my Gobelin tapestried chairs and ottomans? |
8954 | Shall I take them out of the room?" |
8954 | Shall I tell you why you are nervous in this house, my lady?" |
8954 | Shall I work underground, bribing the paltry assistants in that foul conspiracy, until I find my way to the thrice guilty principal? |
8954 | Shall we go as man and wife? |
8954 | Shall we go together, my dear love, and bring our brother back between us?" |
8954 | Shall we go up by the express, or shall we stop here and dine with my uncle to- night?" |
8954 | Shall you or I find my brother''s murderer?" |
8954 | She had scarcely listened to these commonplace details; why should she care for this low- born waiting- woman''s perils and troubles? |
8954 | Should I be justified in doing this? |
8954 | Should you recognize Mrs. Talboys if you were to see her?" |
8954 | Sir Harry Towers, of Towers Park, in the county of Herts, has been making you an offer of his hand, eh?" |
8954 | So what was I to do? |
8954 | Suppose I could have told somethin'', and would have told it but for that? |
8954 | Suppose we stroll about all day, take another turn with the rod and line, and go up to town by the train that leaves here at 6.15 in the evening?" |
8954 | Surely, she is not utterly indifferent as to his fate?" |
8954 | Talboys?" |
8954 | Talboys?" |
8954 | Talboys?" |
8954 | Talboys?" |
8954 | Talboys?" |
8954 | That''s what you mean to say, is n''t it?" |
8954 | The child did not answer, but presently, fixing his eyes upon Robert''s face, he said abruptly:"Where''s the pretty lady?" |
8954 | The place takes its name from your family, I suppose?" |
8954 | There was a gentleman came here to see your missus yesterday, warn''t there � a tall young gentleman with a brown beard?'' |
8954 | They want freedom of opinion, variety of occupation, do they? |
8954 | They''re all alike � they can only drop their eyes and say,''Lor'', Sir Harry, why do you call that curly black dog a retriever?'' |
8954 | This a house for mad people, this, is it not, madam?" |
8954 | Tonks, did Miss Graham tell you where she came from?" |
8954 | Vincent?" |
8954 | Vincent?" |
8954 | Was Captain Maldon at home? |
8954 | Was he still watching her or was he thinking? |
8954 | Was he to be haunted forever by the ghost of his unburied friend? |
8954 | Was it a monition, or a monomania? |
8954 | Was it likely that his friend would be indifferent to his uneasiness? |
8954 | Was she long in the surgeon''s family?" |
8954 | Was the gentleman any relative? |
8954 | Was the man sure that it was at two Mr. Talboys called? |
8954 | Was the wind favorable? |
8954 | We wo n''t let him run away again, will we, Alicia?" |
8954 | Well, how''s it to be, Alicia? |
8954 | Were you talking of Sir Michael all the time?" |
8954 | What am I to do, then, if I mean to keep my promise to Clara Talboys?" |
8954 | What am I to do? � what am I to do?" |
8954 | What can I do to appease you? |
8954 | What can be more ridiculous than this idea which you have taken into your head? |
8954 | What can be the meaning of all this?" |
8954 | What can have happened in such a short time as that?" |
8954 | What can there be for me henceforth but suffering? |
8954 | What clew had they to the mystery of that firelit room in which a guilty woman had knelt at their master''s feet to tell the story of her sinful life? |
8954 | What could I do? |
8954 | What could I teach him, except to smoke cigars and idle around all day with his hands in his pockets?" |
8954 | What could he say to him? |
8954 | What could there be extraordinary in the simple fact of a gentleman being late for his dinner? |
8954 | What did it matter? |
8954 | What do I care? |
8954 | What do men know of the mysterious beverage? |
8954 | What do we know of the mysteries that may hang about the houses we enter? |
8954 | What do you say to that, Georgey?" |
8954 | What does it matter? |
8954 | What does your cousin mean to do for a living when you are married?" |
8954 | What had been his love for his first wife but a poor, pitiful, smoldering spark, too dull to be extinguished, too feeble to burn? |
8954 | What had he to do next? |
8954 | What harm had I ever done you that you should make yourself my persecutor, and dog my steps, and watch my looks, and play the spy upon me? |
8954 | What has become of the first husband?" |
8954 | What has happened to cause the change?" |
8954 | What if I am wrong after all? |
8954 | What if that should have been George''s fate? |
8954 | What if the young man''s greedy old father- in- law had tried to separate them on account of the monetary trust lodged in Robert Audley''s hands? |
8954 | What if this Helen Talboys ran away from her home upon one day, and I entered my employer''s house upon the next, what does that prove?" |
8954 | What if this chain of evidence which I have constructed link by link, is woven out of my own folly? |
8954 | What if this edifice of horror and suspicion is a mere collection of crotchets � the nervous fancies of a hypochondriacal bachelor? |
8954 | What if you receive no answer to your advertisements?" |
8954 | What is George Talboys to me that you should worry me about him?" |
8954 | What is Robert Audley to you, that you behave like a maniac, because you think he is in danger? |
8954 | What is it that you could have told?" |
8954 | What is the cold to me?" |
8954 | What is to become of me when I grow old?" |
8954 | What man?" |
8954 | What of that? |
8954 | What on earth made you go out upon such a night?" |
8954 | What refreshment could he possibly provide for a boy who called it afternoon at three o''clock? |
8954 | What shall I do?" |
8954 | What should happen to him? |
8954 | What should you say to a public- house for you and me, by- and- by, my girl? |
8954 | What sort of person is this Mr. Talboys? |
8954 | What time, sir?" |
8954 | What warfare could such a feeble creature wage against her fate? |
8954 | What was it to you that other lives might be sacrificed? |
8954 | What was this story that he was listening to? |
8954 | What was to be done? |
8954 | What was to be done? |
8954 | What was to be done? |
8954 | What was to become of him? |
8954 | What were this woman''s troubles to me? |
8954 | What would I not do to bring him back? |
8954 | What would I not do?" |
8954 | What''s Phoebe, that anybody should go to put theirselves out about her? |
8954 | What''s she a- sayin''?" |
8954 | Where are you taking me?" |
8954 | Where had you been living prior to your appearance at Crescent Villas? |
8954 | Where have you been, and what have you been doing?" |
8954 | Who cares whether I am well or ill?" |
8954 | Who could have ever expected that a dragoon would drink sixpenny ale, smoke horrid bird''s- eye tobacco, and let his wife wear a shabby bonnet?" |
8954 | Who ever heard of a woman taking life as it ought to be taken? |
8954 | Who shall decide from the first aspect of the slimy creature, which is to be the one eel out of the colossal bag of snakes? |
8954 | Who will come to tell it, at last, I wonder? |
8954 | Who''s dead?" |
8954 | Whose was it, and to what was it to lead? |
8954 | Why could you not let me alone? |
8954 | Why did I ever see her? |
8954 | Why did he harp upon this forbidden subject? |
8954 | Why did he insist upon recalling the date of George''s murder? |
8954 | Why did my relentless Nemesis ever point the way to that dreary house in Dorsetshire?" |
8954 | Why did n''t I think of it before? |
8954 | Why did she come to London?" |
8954 | Why did you come out in such weather?" |
8954 | Why did you go up to the Castle, my lady? |
8954 | Why do n''t I love her? |
8954 | Why do you come and say these things to me? |
8954 | Why do you come and try to put such fancies in my head when I am going home to my darling wife?" |
8954 | Why do you show me these?" |
8954 | Why does n''t she run away while there is still time? |
8954 | Why does n''t she run away?" |
8954 | Why does n''t she take it and run away?" |
8954 | Why had she come out into the chill sunshine of that March afternoon to wander up and down that monotonous pathway with the step- daughter she hated? |
8954 | Why have you tormented me so? |
8954 | Why is it that although I know her to be pretty, and pure, and good, and truthful, I do n''t love her? |
8954 | Why should I study his character?" |
8954 | Why, how was that?" |
8954 | Why, what business can he possibly have in that out- of- the- way place? |
8954 | Will anything stop him � but death?" |
8954 | Will he go to the pit- hole?" |
8954 | Will he stop for fear of me, when the thought of what his uncle must suffer has not stopped him? |
8954 | Will he stop for fear of me? |
8954 | Will he stop, now that he has once gone so far? |
8954 | Will my hair ever drop off as the leaves are falling from those trees, and leave me wan and bare like them? |
8954 | Will you come there with me?" |
8954 | Will you do so? |
8954 | Will you go into the high- road and tell the man to drive on a little way? |
8954 | Will you love me?" |
8954 | Will you see Lady Audley alone?" |
8954 | Will you take upon yourself the duty of providing for the safety and comfort of this lady whom I have thought my wife? |
8954 | Would Clara Talboys have been sorry? |
8954 | Would Mr. Audley go to his uncle''s room? |
8954 | Would Mr. Audley walk in? |
8954 | Would it be in ten days, in eleven, in twelve, in thirteen? |
8954 | Would it not be cruel to refuse to go � to delay an hour unnecessarily? |
8954 | Would the gentleman send in his card? |
8954 | Would the gentleman walk in and sit down a bit? |
8954 | Would you like to see the box?" |
8954 | Yes or no?" |
8954 | Yes, I''m getting old upon the right side; and why � why should it be so?" |
8954 | You find the beard makes a great difference, do you not, sir?" |
8954 | You go to London by the mail?" |
8954 | You have n''t deceived me, have you?" |
8954 | You know the secret which is the key to my life?" |
8954 | You must have friends, relations, connections, who can come forward to prove as much as this for you? |
8954 | You remember giving me the money for the brewer''s bill, my lady?" |
8954 | You remember the lady whose name I wrote upon my card?" |
8954 | You say a blacksmith has been here?" |
8954 | You say her mother died in a madhouse?" |
8954 | You understand me?" |
8954 | You will do this, will you not?" |
8954 | You wish to follow her life backward from the present hour to the year fifty- three?" |
8954 | You wo n''t be rude?" |
8954 | You wo n''t try to injure me?" |
8954 | You � you wo n''t be offended, my lady, if he should say anything rude? |
8954 | You''ll go to bed very early, wo n''t you, and take great care of yourself?" |
8954 | You''ll go with me, George?" |
8954 | You''ll make it a hundred, my lady?" |
8954 | You''ve done a good stroke of work to- day, I''ll wager � made a lucky hit, and you''re what you call''standing treat,''eh?" |
8954 | and did she discover that poisoned fountain in her own exaggerated estimate of the value of a pretty face? |
8954 | and how was he to be communicated with? |
8954 | and of what was he thinking? |
8954 | and what are they? |
8954 | asked the baronet �"what have you been doing since you came from Chelmsford? |
8954 | asked the maid,"before I go to bed?" |
8954 | could you think so badly of me as to think I would not try to be a comfort to my father in his grief?" |
8954 | cried George,"do n''t you know me?" |
8954 | cried Luke Marks, with a hoarse laugh;"who wants you to be genteel, I wonder? |
8954 | cried Phoebe, pointing to this lurid patch;"do you see?" |
8954 | cried the baronet,"what is the meaning of this? |
8954 | cried the girl, with a look of terror;"how can you speak about such things?" |
8954 | dare I? |
8954 | exclaimed Alicia;"how should I injure you?" |
8954 | exclaimed George Talboys,"is this the way you welcome me? |
8954 | exclaimed Mrs. Plowson,"what has the poor old gentleman been taking on about? |
8954 | exclaimed the baronet;"is Robert here?" |
8954 | he asked,"were they pinched for money while she was ill?" |
8954 | he asked;"and how did it happen?" |
8954 | he asked;"did she speak of me � at � at the last?" |
8954 | he cried, striking his clenched fist upon the side of the vessel,"what a fool I am to be frightened at this? |
8954 | he cried, with a joyous peal of laughter;"was n''t I working for my darling? |
8954 | he murmured, in a low, pleading voice,"shall I go to Australia to look for your brother?" |
8954 | he muttered, opening his cigar- case, lazily surveying its contents;"how pleased and how surprised? |
8954 | he said,"what is the meaning of this? |
8954 | he said;"how can I ever cease to hate myself for having brought this grief upon you?" |
8954 | he thought,"can these two women be of the same clay? |
8954 | how can I ever forgive myself?" |
8954 | how can I rob my blessed angel?'' |
8954 | my pin- money has been overdrawn half a year to satisfy your demands? |
8954 | or being, as I think, on the road to that discovery, shall I do a wrong to the memory of George Talboys by turning back or stopping still? |
8954 | or were there any means to be taken by which his return might be hastened? |
8954 | or''Oh Sir Harry, and did the poor mare really sprain her pastern shoulder- blade?'' |
8954 | said Sir Michael, suddenly;"have you told Alicia?" |
8954 | said my lady;"and what reason could any one have for announcing the death of Mrs. Talboys, if Mrs. Talboys had been alive?" |
8954 | she exclaimed, suddenly turning upon Phoebe Marks in a transport of anger,"do you want to destroy me that you have left those two men together?" |
8954 | what am I doing?" |
8954 | what has happened to distress you in this manner?" |
8954 | what have I done?" |
8954 | what may not have happened?" |
8954 | what would become of me? |
8954 | why did not the Argus go down with every soul on board her before I came to see this day?" |
8954 | you knew that he was coming to Southampton?" |
5093 | ''A very fine nicht,''says she, very frank, though she was breathing quick like as if she had been running,''You''ll be police?'' 5093 ''And immediately Jesus stretched forth His hand and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?''" |
5093 | ''And what''s that in your hand?'' 5093 ''Dinna gie me his hair,''was a''I could say, and I wouldna take it frae her; but she laid it in my hand, and-- and syne what could I do? |
5093 | ''I am,''says I,''and wha be you?'' 5093 ''I ken it wasna for me you did it,''she said,''but for him; but, oh, Mr. Whamond, will that make me think the less o''you? |
5093 | ''Wha says that? |
5093 | ''What have you seen?'' 5093 ''What is it you hinna done that you should hae done?'' |
5093 | ''Where have I no been, lad?'' 5093 ''Where have you been all this time?'' |
5093 | ''Where have you been these five years and a half?'' 5093 ''You mean,''says she,''that he''ll gie them awa to some ill- off body, as he gies near a''thing he has? |
5093 | A pity I do n''t hear better? |
5093 | A what? |
5093 | About Dow, I believe, Jean? |
5093 | About what? |
5093 | Again? 5093 Ah, if you were married--""Do you think,"asked Gavin, indignantly,"that it would make any difference to you?" |
5093 | Ah, mother,he would say wistfully,"it is not a great sermon, but do you think I''m preaching Christ? |
5093 | Am I no? |
5093 | Am I so fearsome? |
5093 | An ordinary gypsy? |
5093 | And Whamond came through that rain to tell me this? 5093 And by- and- by you will offer to tell me of your free will?" |
5093 | And dripping? |
5093 | And has Wearyworld sent it back to Halliwell? |
5093 | And has she the siller? |
5093 | And have you no brothers nor sisters? |
5093 | And he strikes you? |
5093 | And he told you that to do to me as you have done was to be pleasing in God''s sight? |
5093 | And it is dear to you? |
5093 | And my voice was so horrible to you that it drove you to this? |
5093 | And poor Babbie,she entreated pathetically;"will no one say,''Poor Babbie''?" |
5093 | And she telled me to gie you dry claethes and her compliments, and would you gang up to the bedroom and see her? |
5093 | And so increase my danger tenfold? |
5093 | And then you came to the Spittal? |
5093 | And there were Auld Lichts among them? |
5093 | And what did you do? |
5093 | And what for no? |
5093 | And what form is his punishment to take? |
5093 | And what is Jean''s verdict? |
5093 | And what will you gie it me in? |
5093 | And what,retorted McQueen,"was the name of the minister that told his session he would neither preach nor pray while the black frost lasted?" |
5093 | And when was it you became beautiful again? |
5093 | And where is the siller to come from? |
5093 | And where, O daughter of Dives, do you reside? |
5093 | And why? 5093 And would a psalm sung wi''sic an object,"retorted the precentor,"mount higher, think you, than a bairn''s kite? |
5093 | And ye''ll leave the minister alane for ever and ever? |
5093 | And you are not ashamed of it? |
5093 | And you too? |
5093 | And you will provide for Nanny? |
5093 | And you''ll never come back no more a''your life? |
5093 | And you''re no angry wi''me, doctor, are you? |
5093 | And you, a mere tinsmith, dare to tell me that a lawyer was willing to take your son into his office? 5093 Are ministers so poor?" |
5093 | Are they dead? |
5093 | Are you aye there? 5093 Are you happy?" |
5093 | Are you mad? |
5093 | Are you sure there''s naebody looking? |
5093 | Are you-- the woman? |
5093 | Ay, ay, ou losh? |
5093 | Ay, but on whose side, Nanny? |
5093 | Ay, but what does she seem to be? 5093 Ay, how can you ken?" |
5093 | Ay, wha is she? |
5093 | Ay,said Tosh, eagerly,"but will it be a saft, cowdie sweet ding- on?" |
5093 | Ay,said the outspoken doctor, looking contemptuously into Rob''s bleary eyes,"so this is what your conversion amounts to? |
5093 | Babbie,he asked, beginning to fear that he had not sounded her deepest woe,"why have you left me all this time? |
5093 | Babbie,she cried,"you didna speak about the poorhouse to Enoch?" |
5093 | Because I was so unreasonable? |
5093 | But after? |
5093 | But he has done no wrong, so there is no punishment for him? |
5093 | But how do they know? |
5093 | But if I am willing to overlook it? |
5093 | But if he hates her,asked Babbie,"how can she have sic power ower him?" |
5093 | But if he was a-- a minister, and keepit the flower-- say it was a common rose-- fond- like on his chimley, what would you think? |
5093 | But if that''s what Mr. Dishart has done, how has he kept it so secret? |
5093 | But if you didna want him to ken you had meddled wi''t on his chimley, what would you do? |
5093 | But is it the truth? 5093 But is it?" |
5093 | But surely,Gavin said,"they came back to look for you?" |
5093 | But the dog? |
5093 | But the gypsy fires? |
5093 | But there is no water,he remembered,"and is there any tea?" |
5093 | But what I want to speir at you is, can I gang down to the Tenements for a minute? 5093 But what are the people saying about her?" |
5093 | But what can I say? |
5093 | But what made you change your text? |
5093 | But what makes you look for Mr. Dishart here? |
5093 | But what was the insult? 5093 But will you not be dead when I am eighteen? |
5093 | But you are ready? |
5093 | But you love him? |
5093 | By the way,McQueen said, after he and Gavin had talked a little while,"did I ever advise you to smoke?" |
5093 | Can I gae hame now, sheriff? |
5093 | Can I no? |
5093 | Can a man like a woman against his will? |
5093 | Can you deny the marriage? |
5093 | Carefully put by? 5093 Charles,"I said in a low voice,"why is the Auld Licht bell ringing?" |
5093 | Could you? |
5093 | Dagont, what did I care about his hair? 5093 Did I bully you?" |
5093 | Did I hurt you? 5093 Did I say that?" |
5093 | Did he? |
5093 | Did she ever tell you a story about a black dog? |
5093 | Did you cry to me? |
5093 | Did you never ask your mother,I said, addressing the fire rather than him,"why you were called Gavin?" |
5093 | Did you never see her at your father''s house? |
5093 | Did you see her, Gavin? |
5093 | Did you take stock of him, mother? |
5093 | Did you? 5093 Did you?" |
5093 | Do I look so false? |
5093 | Do I sit under anybody? |
5093 | Do n''t say that you love me still,she cried; and then, letting her hand fall from the door, added imploringly,"Oh, Gavin, do you?" |
5093 | Do n''t tell me the woman has escaped? |
5093 | Do the smaller coins go farther? |
5093 | Do they say they wo n''t come? |
5093 | Do you care? |
5093 | Do you dare to think I''ll let you sleep on chaff? 5093 Do you ken that she has bewitched him; do you ken I saw him trying to put his arms round her; do you ken they have a trysting- place in Caddam wood?" |
5093 | Do you know that he took twenty minutes to say good- night? 5093 Do you mean for one other?" |
5093 | Do you mean that he drinks? |
5093 | Do you no ken wha said to me,''Kill this woman?'' 5093 Do you not see that this man has deceived you? |
5093 | Do you prepare your talk like sermons? 5093 Do you really care?" |
5093 | Do you really think me a gypsy? |
5093 | Do you really think so, mother? |
5093 | Do you really think that I could doubt her? |
5093 | Do you remember, Gavin, that the Egyptian every one is still speaking of, wore a long cloak? 5093 Do you see anything strange in the nicht, Rob?" |
5093 | Do you think I''ll stand this, mother? 5093 Do you think me ordinary?" |
5093 | Do you think,Babbie exclaimed, taking fare,"that he is afraid of you?" |
5093 | Do you? |
5093 | Does Mr. Dishart ever wear a cap at nichts? |
5093 | Does any one know who she is? |
5093 | Does the shirra blame the sojers? |
5093 | Does your father drina? |
5093 | Eh? 5093 For what business had she,"continued Dave righteously,"to meddle in other folks''business? |
5093 | For what reason? |
5093 | For you? |
5093 | Gavin,Margaret whispered as he took her arm,"do you think this bonnet sets me?" |
5093 | Godsake, hae we no telled you? |
5093 | Hae you ever looked on a lord? |
5093 | Has Rob Dow come back? |
5093 | Has any other person seen the soldiers? |
5093 | Has he been at the manse? 5093 Has it been found?" |
5093 | Has she been seen since the soldiers went away? |
5093 | Has she been taken to Tilliedrum? |
5093 | Have I fallen deaf in the left ear, too? |
5093 | Have I not loved you always? |
5093 | Have you brocht it? |
5093 | Have you gone to bed, Jean? 5093 Have you no respect for law and order?" |
5093 | He couldna hae done that, for was he no baffled to find Ezra himsel''? |
5093 | He does love you, Babbie? |
5093 | He is n''t married? |
5093 | He is not,Gavin replied;"but why do you want to know that?" |
5093 | Hendry Munn,Tammas said sternly,"there''s mair about this; wha is the woman?" |
5093 | Hendry,I replied instantly,"why is the Auld Licht bell ringing?" |
5093 | His wife is a gossip? |
5093 | How are you greeting so sair? |
5093 | How can she? |
5093 | How can you say so? |
5093 | How could I presume to believe you? |
5093 | How could I sit still, Gavin, and the town full o''the skirls of women and bairns? 5093 How could a wandering gypsy know all this?" |
5093 | How dare you, woman? |
5093 | How dared yon ignore your duty at such a time? |
5093 | How did I come here? |
5093 | How did it happen? |
5093 | How did the minister no come to the meeting? 5093 How did you come by it?" |
5093 | How did you get up there? |
5093 | How did you no lay haud on that blast o''wind, Lauchlan Campbell,asked Elspeth of her husband,"and speir at him what had happened at the Spittal? |
5093 | How do you get to know all these things, Nanny? |
5093 | How do you ken about the holly? |
5093 | How do you know I married her? |
5093 | How far would you make it? 5093 How long ago is that?" |
5093 | How should that send your father to the drink? |
5093 | How were you home so early from the prayer- meeting last night? |
5093 | How, mother? |
5093 | I am not allowed to say that even? |
5093 | I am only asking you if you ever go to church? |
5093 | I canna hear you, ma''am; is it the rain you''re feared at? |
5093 | I hope the minister wo n''t leave the church, Jean, till this is over? |
5093 | I hope you have come back, Dishart, to speak more rationally? |
5093 | I hope,he said nervously,"that you do n''t sing the Paraphrases?" |
5093 | I mean, where do you belong? |
5093 | I only mean what denomination do you belong to? |
5093 | I suppose she''ll gie you the money,she said,"and syne you''ll gie me the seven shillings a week?" |
5093 | I suspect it wasna,answered the Egyptian coolly,"Hae you been thinking about it a''this time? |
5093 | I would think, Jean,Haggart answered, reflectively,"that he had gien siller for''t; ay, I would wonder--""What would you wonder?" |
5093 | I''m putting on my things, ma''am,Jean answered; then whispered to Babbie,"What''s to be done?" |
5093 | If I do n''t know what it is, what is it? |
5093 | If I tell you,she said eagerly,"will you set me free?" |
5093 | If you are caught, will it not be discovered that I helped you to escape? |
5093 | If you saw a grand man gey fond o''a flower, what would you think? |
5093 | If you''re no angry wi''me,she said, sadly,"how will you no look at me?" |
5093 | In his garden? |
5093 | In what way? |
5093 | Is Tibbets living? |
5093 | Is any one dead? |
5093 | Is he living? |
5093 | Is it because I am too-- old? |
5093 | Is it fair, think you,he said, passionately addressing the sky,"to show your wrath wi''Mr. Dishart by ruining my neeps?" |
5093 | Is it true? 5093 Is it useless, Dishart, to make another appeal to you?" |
5093 | Is that all? |
5093 | Is that you, Gavin? |
5093 | Is that you, Rob Dow? |
5093 | Is that you? |
5093 | Is the master in? |
5093 | Is the watch for the soldiers still kept up? |
5093 | Is there a great difference in their ages? |
5093 | Is there a man down there? |
5093 | Is there no word of your minister''s getting a wife yet? |
5093 | Is there no? 5093 Is there some one in danger?" |
5093 | Is this the Egyptian of the riots,the doctor said in a low voice to Gavin,"or is she a queen? |
5093 | It is his teaching, doubtless? |
5093 | It is you, Mr. Dishart,said the sergeant,"and your lady?" |
5093 | It was nothing but a love of mischief that brought you here? |
5093 | It was the sheriff who told tales? 5093 It''s a guid merino yet,"admitted the old woman,"but, oh, Babbie, what does the material matter if the cut isna fashionable? |
5093 | Jean Baxter, what does it mean when a minister carries flowers in his pouch; ay, and takes them out to look at them ilka minute? |
5093 | Jean, did you ever hear such a rain? 5093 Jean, you do n''t mean that he has been drinking again?" |
5093 | Jean,said some one, opening the inner kitchen door,"why did you--?" |
5093 | Jean? 5093 Lassie, I bear you no grudge; will you not tell me who you are?" |
5093 | Lassie,the old doctor cried,"are you a witch?" |
5093 | Lord Rintoul''s house at the top of Glen Quharity? 5093 Losh, what would make him hod it?" |
5093 | McKenzie, can that schoolmaster have deceived us? |
5093 | Mother, is this possible? |
5093 | Mother,he said in alarm,"what are you doing here?" |
5093 | Mr. Dishart,I said abruptly,"would you like to see a gypsy marriage? |
5093 | Mr. Dishart,he asked,"were you ever in love?" |
5093 | Mr. Dishart,the mole- catcher cried,"hae you seen that Egyptian? |
5093 | Must this be? |
5093 | Nanny and I are to have a dish of tea, as soon as we have set things to rights,she told him,"Do you think we should invite the minister, Nanny?" |
5093 | Nanny, do you hear me? 5093 Nanny,"I said, in perplexity,"what are you doing here?" |
5093 | Nanny,exclaimed the Egyptian,"did you hear what the minister said?" |
5093 | Need that make any difference? |
5093 | Nevertheless I was speaking to you, or rather, I was saying to myself what--"What you had decided to say to me? |
5093 | No more of this delay, do you mean, McClure? |
5093 | No one has been punished? |
5093 | No; but though he was in the parlor? |
5093 | Nor the lassie they call the Egyptian? |
5093 | Oh, Gavin, is there no way but this? |
5093 | Oh, my dear,cried Margaret, in distress,"if this is so, are you not afraid to marry him?" |
5093 | Oh, the-- the-- Is there an English church denomination? |
5093 | Oh, why,cried Babbie, beating her hands together in grief,"should you suffer for me?" |
5093 | Oh,she cried,"is all sojers like you?" |
5093 | Only your mother? |
5093 | Ony explanation o''his sudden change o''texts?'' 5093 Or if he found it in his possession against his will?" |
5093 | Or on an auld lord''s young leddyship? 5093 Otherwise,"asked Gavin the dejected,"you would not have come back to the well?" |
5093 | Perhaps,said the doctor, sharply,"because it was unnecessary?" |
5093 | Prisoner at the bar,he said,"hae ye onything to say why sentence of death shouldna be pronounced against you? |
5093 | Rob Dow, is it because you''ve found out about this woman? |
5093 | Rob,said the Glen Quharity post, from whom I subsequently got the story,"Mr. Dishart has fallen in-- in-- what do you call the thing, Chirsty?" |
5093 | Say? 5093 Shall I be big enough when I am six?" |
5093 | She fell back frae my oath,he said,"and syne she took my sleeve and speired,''What has come ower you, Mr. Whamond? |
5093 | She''ll be wi''him? |
5093 | Should we no rather haud the meeting oursel''s? |
5093 | Since when have you taken command of me? |
5093 | Sit down,he grumbled,"or how can you expect a fair trial? |
5093 | Surely, we part friends, then? |
5093 | Tammas Whamond? |
5093 | Tell me when you did not think of others before yourself? |
5093 | Tell me, Nanny,she asked presently,"what sort of man this Enoch is, from whom I bought the things?" |
5093 | That is all you saw of the woman? |
5093 | That''s short for Barbara,said Nanny;"but Babbie what?" |
5093 | The difficulty, I suppose, is to hit upon the right one? |
5093 | The ring is yours,he said,"and why should you not wear it?" |
5093 | The weavers would not fight? |
5093 | The well is in the wood, I think? |
5093 | Then it was you who gave the alarm? |
5093 | Then there is the banker''s daughter? |
5093 | Then what condition was he in? |
5093 | Then who did blow it? |
5093 | Then why did you not hand me over? |
5093 | Then why do it? |
5093 | There is nothing to be seen but mist; where are we? |
5093 | There is nothing wrong, is there? |
5093 | There was nothing monstrous to you,he asked, looking me in the face,"in a minister''s marrying a gypsy?" |
5093 | There''s a curran folk at the back door,Jean announced later,"and their respects to you, and would you gie them some water out o''the well? |
5093 | This is the woman, captain,one of the policemen said in triumph;"and, begging your pardon, will you keep a grip of her till the sheriff comes back?" |
5093 | This mummery on the hill--"Why do you call it so? 5093 To ruin you for my sins?" |
5093 | Was it Mistress Dishart the laddie saw? |
5093 | Was it him? 5093 Was it no yoursel''that chose the spot? |
5093 | Was she as bonny as folks say? |
5093 | Was she dressed just like an ordinary gypsy body? 5093 Was that what you were saying to the tree?" |
5093 | We couldna dare,Nanny answered quickly,"You''ll excuse her, Mr. Dishart, for the presumption?" |
5093 | Well, Mr. Dishart,I had to say,"why should deny that I have a warm regard for you? |
5093 | Were you? |
5093 | Wha are you? |
5093 | Wha is it then? |
5093 | Wha is she? |
5093 | Wha kens,continued the precentor,"but that the next time this kirk is opened will be to preach it toom?" |
5093 | Wha kens,he said, in a voice of steel,"that the kirk''ll be open next Sabbath?" |
5093 | Wha''s swearing now? |
5093 | Wha''s wha? |
5093 | What Egyptian? 5093 What I want to know,"he explained severely,"is how you were able to acquaint the Thrums people with our movements? |
5093 | What are the congregation saying about the minister''s absence? |
5093 | What are you doing here on sic a nicht? |
5093 | What are you doing there? |
5093 | What are you doing there? |
5093 | What are you listening for? |
5093 | What are you listening to, woman? 5093 What are you shaking at?" |
5093 | What are you yourself? |
5093 | What became of her? |
5093 | What business has he to befriend a woman that belongs to another denomination? 5093 What business has he,"asked Margaret, vindictively,"to put such thoughts into your head?" |
5093 | What business is it of mine? |
5093 | What church? |
5093 | What did I say? |
5093 | What did I say? |
5093 | What did she say? |
5093 | What did you have yourself, mother? |
5093 | What do I mean by wanting to kill you? |
5093 | What do you know of her? |
5093 | What do you mean by that? |
5093 | What do you see, man? |
5093 | What do you see? |
5093 | What do you think about me? |
5093 | What do you want? 5093 What do you want?" |
5093 | What does it feel like to be afraid? |
5093 | What else could it be? |
5093 | What else made me tell you last night that Babbie was in Nanny''s house? |
5093 | What folk? |
5093 | What had you? |
5093 | What hae I done to madden you? |
5093 | What hae you heard? |
5093 | What have I said, what have I done? |
5093 | What is it? |
5093 | What is it? |
5093 | What is she? |
5093 | What is your name? |
5093 | What is''t? |
5093 | What is? |
5093 | What language are you speaking, you enigma? |
5093 | What makes you think that? |
5093 | What matter how it happened? |
5093 | What news? |
5093 | What of that? |
5093 | What of that? |
5093 | What on earth is that? |
5093 | What right have I to everything I cry for? |
5093 | What road do we tak''? |
5093 | What was his name? |
5093 | What was that? |
5093 | What was the name of the doctor that warned women never to have bairns while it was hauding? |
5093 | What witnesses? |
5093 | What woman is it? |
5093 | What woman? |
5093 | What work? |
5093 | What young lady is this you all talk of? |
5093 | What,asked Haggart,"was the corp to trade?" |
5093 | What,he said,"is mere physical beauty? |
5093 | What? 5093 What? |
5093 | Whaur else should I be? |
5093 | Whaur frae? |
5093 | Whaur is he? |
5093 | Whaur is she now? 5093 Whaur''s John Spens?" |
5093 | Whaur''s the minister? |
5093 | Whaur''s the minister? |
5093 | When did he preach against the wiles of women, Nanny? |
5093 | When did she die? |
5093 | When? |
5093 | Where are you going, Rob? |
5093 | Where are you going? |
5093 | Where are you going? |
5093 | Where are you, McKenzie? 5093 Where are you?" |
5093 | Where did they see us? |
5093 | Where did you get it? |
5093 | Where have you been? |
5093 | Where is Campbell now? |
5093 | Where is he? |
5093 | Where is she now? |
5093 | Where is she now? |
5093 | Who broke down? |
5093 | Who burned the kettle? |
5093 | Who is she? |
5093 | Who is that woman? |
5093 | Who knows, it may be with her now? 5093 Who on earth are you?" |
5093 | Who told you I did that? |
5093 | Who was that speaking to you, Jean? |
5093 | Who were your parents? |
5093 | Who would have me? |
5093 | Whom do you sit under? |
5093 | Whom has he given it to, mother? |
5093 | Why are we not going up the Roods? |
5093 | Why are you crying, little boy? |
5093 | Why are you in darkness? |
5093 | Why are you in such haste? |
5093 | Why could you not love me, Babbie? |
5093 | Why did you not kiss me? |
5093 | Why do n''t you look at me? |
5093 | Why do you carry a woman''s hair,replied the Egyptian,"in that locket on your chain?" |
5093 | Why do you do that? |
5093 | Why do you not answer me more quickly? |
5093 | Why do you run frae me? |
5093 | Why do you stare so, Jean? |
5093 | Why do you wish me ill? |
5093 | Why do you wish that? |
5093 | Why does he not speak? |
5093 | Why is that bell ringing? |
5093 | Why is the door locked? |
5093 | Why not? |
5093 | Why not? |
5093 | Why should I have forgotten her? |
5093 | Why should you tell me? |
5093 | Why was it a long time? |
5093 | Why was she not there? |
5093 | Why were you so anxious to screen her? |
5093 | Why, indeed? |
5093 | Why, what can you know of luxuries? |
5093 | Why, why, you-- why, Babbie, how have you been brought up? |
5093 | Why? |
5093 | Why? |
5093 | Why? |
5093 | Will I hide, then? |
5093 | Will she be glad to see you? |
5093 | Will you listen to such a cur, Riach? |
5093 | Will you never marry? |
5093 | Will you not help me again? |
5093 | Wo n''t you let me in? |
5093 | Would you like me to tell you another story? 5093 Yea, and wha sends the baskets o''flowers, then?" |
5093 | Yes, she knew it,"Perhaps she had forgotten it? |
5093 | Yes,said Babbie, wringing her hands;"she will almost love me, but for what? |
5093 | Yes,said the Egyptian calmly,"it is still shut; but why do you sometimes open it at nights?" |
5093 | You are better now? |
5093 | You are not afraid? |
5093 | You are not angry any more? |
5093 | You are not stretching your neck, are you? |
5093 | You are sure you will never say again that you do n''t understand me? |
5093 | You are sure,inquired Babbie,"that you had no right to question me about the ring?" |
5093 | You did n''t see me till I began to sing, did you? |
5093 | You drew the whole thing out of him without his knowing? |
5093 | You have lived in Edinburgh? |
5093 | You have never seen her since that night? |
5093 | You have not found the gypsy, then? |
5093 | You helped her to escape? |
5093 | You know of the incident at the Spittal, and that Campbell marched off in high dudgeon? 5093 You know who she is?" |
5093 | You limmer, wha are you that hae got haud o''the minister? |
5093 | You mean the wrong woman, do n''t you, mother? |
5093 | You must have been very tired, Gavin? |
5093 | You saw my father crying the minister back? 5093 You tell me, in spite of that face, that you have not fixed on her?" |
5093 | You want me to go with you? |
5093 | You want me to go? |
5093 | You were a watcher? |
5093 | You were in Tilliedrum this evening? |
5093 | You will go to the Spittal for me? |
5093 | You will not go to my mother? |
5093 | You will step inside? |
5093 | You winna put me out, Hendry? |
5093 | You wo n''t jump? |
5093 | You''ll swear to that? |
5093 | You''re to play, doctor? |
5093 | You, too, heard that I was dead? |
5093 | Your name, my man? |
5093 | ''"How no?'' |
5093 | ''Dry, the kid''s ours, Meggy,''he explained;''wet, he goes to Gavin,''I clinched my fist to--- But what was the use? |
5093 | ''Kill her,''says He;''why encumbereth she the ground?''" |
5093 | ''Looks like a genius, does he?'' |
5093 | ''What wi''?'' |
5093 | A stone?" |
5093 | Again that question forced my lips,"Why is the bell ringing?" |
5093 | Am I to return to my people to act a living lie before them to the end of my days? |
5093 | And did you, or did you no, drag that minister, when under your spell, to the hill, and there marry him ower the tongs? |
5093 | And if the minis-- Why did you start, Jean? |
5093 | And what''s the use o''their haeing a policeman when they winna come to the lock- up after I lay hands on them?" |
5093 | And what, think you, was her reason? |
5093 | And, oh, doctor, you winna tell naebody that I was so near taen to it?" |
5093 | Ane o''what?" |
5093 | Are the soldiers already in the square, Yuill?" |
5093 | Are you saying them?" |
5093 | Are you sorry grandmother is dead?" |
5093 | Are you to take the holly berries?" |
5093 | At that a sob broke from Babbie''s heart, and looking at her doubtfully Micah said--"Maybe you''re gey ill for what you''ve done?" |
5093 | At the foot of the field she stopped, and thought to frighten him by saying,"What would the people say if they saw you with me now?" |
5093 | Away to the left he heard voices--"Who was the man, McKenzie?" |
5093 | Ay, Babbie, I''m doubting my merino''s no sair in the fashion?" |
5093 | Ay, I was mad when I saw him at the fireside, but he says to me,''How would you like to be a gentleman yoursel'', father?'' |
5093 | Ay, ay, dominie, what''s your news? |
5093 | Ay, but does that make it less awful?" |
5093 | Babbie, what has come ower you?" |
5093 | Babbie, what shall I say of you who make me write these things? |
5093 | Before you came in, did I not hear you speak of a meeting you had to attend to- night?" |
5093 | Billies, did you ever hear o''a minister being refused?" |
5093 | But I wonder what sort of woman would content you?" |
5093 | But ask her to come up to me after he has gone-- and, Jean, is the parlor looking tidy?" |
5093 | But could that dry the tears of the little Egyptian, who had only been a woman for a day? |
5093 | But do you know why he has done all this?" |
5093 | But do you think it could have happened had not Nanny loved a weaver two- score years before? |
5093 | But how are you speiring?" |
5093 | But if that is so, how did he no come back wi''you?" |
5093 | But is not this a Scotch marriage? |
5093 | But shall we who are old smile cynically at the brief and burning passion of the young? |
5093 | But was it an echo? |
5093 | But was it brave of Gavin to jump? |
5093 | But we have a good many ideas in common after all, have we not, though you are only a minis-- I mean, though I am only a gypsy?" |
5093 | But what was this? |
5093 | But what''s the use o''keeping it frae her ony langer?" |
5093 | But whaur is he?" |
5093 | But where was I to find her? |
5093 | But who can she be? |
5093 | But why did you fling it? |
5093 | But you admit there is some one?" |
5093 | Can I gae hame now, sheriff?" |
5093 | Can she see the door from up there?" |
5093 | Can you think of the beauty of the day now? |
5093 | Captain, how is''t that you''re so fleid to look at me?" |
5093 | Confound it, what are you laughing at?" |
5093 | Could I tell her that the women was waur agin him than the men? |
5093 | Could n''t nobody help loving me,''cause I''m so nice? |
5093 | Could the unhappy girl not see that she was walking into the arms of the soldiers? |
5093 | Could your police have come down that brae alone to- night?" |
5093 | Dearly beloved, with what words shall I bid you good- by?" |
5093 | Did Babbie think him strangely calm? |
5093 | Did Dow bring you word that you were wanted in the Tenements?" |
5093 | Did Gavin make this discovery when the Egyptian left him? |
5093 | Did Jean-- did Jean ask you to come up here?" |
5093 | Did Nanny think they knew where she was going? |
5093 | Did grandmother know you was here? |
5093 | Did she know one?" |
5093 | Did she offer to explain that to you?" |
5093 | Did the devil, your master, summon you to him and say,''Either that noble man or me maun leave Thrums?'' |
5093 | Did you happen to be passing through the wood?" |
5093 | Did you hear it going as we passed the house?" |
5093 | Did you love grandmother? |
5093 | Did you say I bad gone to bed? |
5093 | Did you see Mr. Dishart come back?" |
5093 | Did your mither no tell you to be that afore she died?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Dishart?" |
5093 | Do You believe her master''ll mak''the pool for her? |
5093 | Do you enjoy the prospect of taking one who might be an earl''s wife into poverty-- ay, and disgraceful poverty? |
5093 | Do you hear me, dominie? |
5093 | Do you know Rob Dow?" |
5093 | Do you know anything of this Egyptian?" |
5093 | Do you know its value?" |
5093 | Do you know that if you had it on your finger you would be more worth robbing than with eighty pounds in each of your pockets?" |
5093 | Do you know your mother so little as to think she could survive your shame? |
5093 | Do you like that story?" |
5093 | Do you mind, Gavin, you bought this pillow for me the moment you got your bursary money?" |
5093 | Do you never feel, when you have been living a humdrum life for months, that you must break out of it, or go crazy?" |
5093 | Do you not see? |
5093 | Do you really think that God devastated a glen to give me a chance of becoming a villain? |
5093 | Do you remember how angry you used to be in Glasgow when I said that you would marry some day?" |
5093 | Do you remember that gypsy girl?" |
5093 | Do you sit under anybody?" |
5093 | Do you tell me he''s fond- like o''t?" |
5093 | Do you think I''m greeting? |
5093 | Do you think that if your congregation knew of this gypsy marriage they would have you for their minister for another day? |
5093 | Do you want me to lend you a pipe now?" |
5093 | Do you want to be husbandless and hameless?" |
5093 | Does Mrs. Dishart know--?" |
5093 | Does he stand looking at it? |
5093 | Dominie, is there mony sic women in the warld as that?" |
5093 | Dominie, you mind I passed you in the kitchen, and didna say a word?" |
5093 | Dow was now at the brute''s head, and probably it tried to bite him, for he struck it, crying:"Would you? |
5093 | Duthie?" |
5093 | Duty? |
5093 | Furthermore,''Elspeth says,''how has the marriage been postponed twice?'' |
5093 | Gavin, what is it a woman thinks about the day her son is born? |
5093 | Had God let Rob Dow say they were a gypsy''s love token, and not slain him? |
5093 | Had he indeed seen, or only dreamed that he saw? |
5093 | Had he really made a conquest of this beautiful creature? |
5093 | Hae you heard, Mr. Dishart,"Wearyworld whispered,"that the Egyptian diddled baith the captain and the shirra? |
5093 | Hae you onything on your mind?'' |
5093 | Has it ever struck you that the trouts bites best on the Sabbath? |
5093 | Has it not been selfishness to hope that you would never want to bring another mistress to the manse? |
5093 | Have we stuck again?" |
5093 | Have you forgotten that all this tragedy you have told me of only grew out of your own indecision? |
5093 | Have you seen a gypsy cart with a sort of hammock swung beneath it in which gypsy children are carried about the country? |
5093 | Have you seen her?" |
5093 | Have you who read ever been sick near to death, and then so far recovered that you could once again stand at your window? |
5093 | He did so that afternoon, and what, think you, did he see? |
5093 | He gave Nanny a look that asked,"Is she really crying?" |
5093 | He signed to me that he must be off, but my signals delayed him, and after much trouble he got my question,"Any news about Lord Rintoul?" |
5093 | Her words said so, but had he? |
5093 | Her"Need that make any difference?" |
5093 | Hie, Tammas Whamond, whaur are you? |
5093 | How can a vagrant have five pounds in her pocket when she does not have five shillings on her back?" |
5093 | How could I answer when I knew that Babbie was dying for want of him, not half a mile away? |
5093 | How dared you bewitch me? |
5093 | How did I find you?" |
5093 | How do I ken? |
5093 | How do you no answer me, Tammas? |
5093 | How do you no quote Feargus O''Connor?" |
5093 | How do you think fortunes is telled? |
5093 | How does flour- bread aye fall on the buttered side?" |
5093 | How had the Egyptian been spirited here from the Spittal? |
5093 | How have you sic an ill will at the minister?" |
5093 | How is cripples aye so puffed up mair than other folk? |
5093 | How often is it a phanton woman who draws the man from the way he meant to go? |
5093 | How was she dressed?" |
5093 | How would Miss Pennycuick please you, mother?" |
5093 | I cried,"why did you unbar the door?" |
5093 | I doubted it, but I only asked,"Your mother knows nothing of her?" |
5093 | I mind aince my ain mither-- what the devil are you glowering at, Andrew Luke? |
5093 | I pressed my hands over my eyes, crying,"Where am I?" |
5093 | I suppose you know that the factor''s lassie is an heiress?" |
5093 | I suppose you recognized me by my frock?" |
5093 | I suppose you think, and baith o''you farmers too, that there''s no necessity for praying for rain the nicht? |
5093 | I tell you, the flood''s greedy for him, and it''ll hae him--- Look, did you see him again?" |
5093 | I want you to-- Why are you staring out at the window, Jean?" |
5093 | I was anxious, too, to know what their long faces meant, and so asked at once--"Was Mr. Dishart on the riot?" |
5093 | I was soured to see Gavin prove this, and then I could have laughed without mirth, for had not my bitterness proved it too? |
5093 | I wondered;''or is she sliding yont a peppermint to me?'' |
5093 | I would compare her to you, and then where would she be?" |
5093 | I would have gone at once, but he got in front of me, asking,"Did you ever know my mother?" |
5093 | If I have only been thoughtless, how can you punish me thus? |
5093 | If You had the power, how did You no stop this woman working her will on the minister? |
5093 | If you cared for him, how could you do it?" |
5093 | If you have your secrets, why may I not have mine? |
5093 | If you saw me looking up from my paper to ask her,"What was it that Birse said to Jean about the minister''s flowers?" |
5093 | If, however, it was no quick liking for the gypsy that almost tempted me to leave these two lovers to each other, what was it? |
5093 | In the broom-- a dogcart:"Do you see nothing yet, McKenzie?" |
5093 | In the first place, has Mr. Dishart no keeped you in siller a''the time I was awa? |
5093 | In the manse kitchen:"Jean, did you not hear me ring? |
5093 | In those days the first question asked of a child was not,"Tell me your name,"but"What are you to be?" |
5093 | Is he ashamed? |
5093 | Is it Rob Dow wanting the minister?" |
5093 | Is it any wonder that the minister sighed? |
5093 | Is it because I said I lived in a tree? |
5093 | Is it hod on the chimley? |
5093 | Is it the banker''s daughter?" |
5093 | Is it to a dog barking? |
5093 | Is it true that before you begin to preach you lock the door to keep the congregation in?" |
5093 | Is not love God''s doing? |
5093 | Is she still at Farquharson''s house?" |
5093 | Is that a licht?" |
5093 | Is that love? |
5093 | Is there no''a smell o''burning in the house?" |
5093 | Is''t a lassie wi''rowans in her hair?" |
5093 | It is a Glasgow lady after all? |
5093 | It was a night of long ago, but can you not see my dear Margaret still as she bends over her son? |
5093 | It was even awful that Gavin''s first words when Rintoul opened his eyes and closed them hastily were,"Where is she?" |
5093 | It''s eneuch to mak a man greet, for what richt hae I to keep kye when I canna meat them?" |
5093 | It''s fine to cry''Kill her,''but whaur''s the bonfire, whaur''s the pool? |
5093 | It''s fine, is n''t it, to be in the fashion?" |
5093 | Jean exclaimed, beginning to shake;"wha is she, Rob Dow?" |
5093 | Jean says---""I believe, mother,"Gavin interposed, reproachfully,"that you have been questioning Jean about them?" |
5093 | Knowing that, sir, how could I return to Thrums without her?" |
5093 | Lassie, how could you propose sic a thing?" |
5093 | Losh, dominie, is that a boot in your hand?" |
5093 | Maybe you could guess, Tammas?" |
5093 | Men are so much more unreasonable than women, do n''t you think?" |
5093 | Micah rubbed his face dry, and said,"Will you let me stand on the Standing Stane and watch you gaen awa for ever and ever?" |
5093 | Mr. Dishart, could you not pray cheerfully?" |
5093 | Mr. Dishart, let me go; what do you mean, sir, by hanging on to my coat tails? |
5093 | Mr. Dishart, she''s awa''; what if she doesna come back?" |
5093 | Mr. Dishart,"she entreated, her voice breaking,"if you were to suffer for this folly of mine, do you think I could live?" |
5093 | Mr. Ogilvy, what assurance have I, while lying here helpless, that the marriage at the Spittal is not going on?" |
5093 | My mother-- If she was bad, may not that be some excuse for me? |
5093 | My, certie, but claithes does make a differ to a woman?" |
5093 | Nanny shrank from me, but Sanders said,"Has the rain driven you gyte, man? |
5093 | Next I looked to see if I was sitting on her frock, the which tries a woman sair, but I wasna,''Does she want to change Bibles wi''me?'' |
5093 | No one had caressed Nanny for many years, but do you think she was too poor and old to care for these young arms around her neck? |
5093 | Now they had got their desires; but do you think they were content? |
5093 | Now will you meet me at the Kaims?" |
5093 | Now, Dunwoodie, what were you doing in Tilliedrum?" |
5093 | Now, is that soft?" |
5093 | Now, listen to me; how dared you go through a marriage ceremony with her, knowing her already to be my wife?" |
5093 | O Lord, are you angry wi''your servants that you''re taking him frae us just when we ken what he is?" |
5093 | Of the gypsy I knew nothing save what I had seen that night, yet what more was there to learn? |
5093 | Ogilvy?'' |
5093 | Oh, Gavin, what can I do for them? |
5093 | Oh, dominie, whaur''s the minister?" |
5093 | Oh, ma''am, you surely dinna think I would take a widow man?" |
5093 | Oh, what''s to be done? |
5093 | Oh, why should you risk so much for me?" |
5093 | Or was it that during the ceremony every person on the hill had been turned into stone? |
5093 | Or was it your daughter?" |
5093 | Perhaps you have fallen to Miss Pennycuick''s piano? |
5093 | Rob leaped from the dogcart, crying,"What does that mean?" |
5093 | She brocht it out o''a drawer, and what do you thitik it was? |
5093 | She brought you in with her, and so had strength to cry,''What is it? |
5093 | She lauched in a pleased way and tapped me wi''her fan, and says she,''Why do you think me the prettiest?'' |
5093 | Should we gang to the manse down the fields?" |
5093 | So I rose again, and I says, boldly this time,''Whaur''s that young leddy? |
5093 | Surely her conscience troubled her, for on his not answering immediately she said,"Do you presume to disbelieve me? |
5093 | The little minister bowed his head in assent when Babbie''s cry,"Oh, Gavin, do you?" |
5093 | The prayer- meeting is long in coming out, is it not?" |
5093 | Then came this conversation, as distinct as though it had been spoken into my ear:"Can you see the school- house now, McKenzie?" |
5093 | Then it is the factor at the Spittal''s lassie? |
5093 | Then the gallop of a horse makes farmers start up in bed and cry,"Who''s ill?" |
5093 | Then why did you never come to see her? |
5093 | Then you will perhaps save Mr. Dishart the trouble of coming farther by showing me the way to old Nanny Webster''s house at Windyghoul?" |
5093 | There''s nothing agin her, is there? |
5093 | These soldiers have come for a dozen of you; will you be benefited if they take away a hundred?" |
5093 | They put it back in his hand, and it slipped out again, and Mr. Duthie gave it back to him, saying,''Are you so cauld as that?'' |
5093 | They were amazed to learn from the shepherd that Mr. Dishart also was in danger, and after"Is there a woman wi''him?" |
5093 | Thus put on his mettle, Halliwell again faced her, with the result that his question changed to"Where did you get those eyes?" |
5093 | Tibbie Birse saw me, and shouted from her door:"Hae you heard o''Mr. Dishart? |
5093 | To Babbie she whispered,"What shall I say to her?" |
5093 | To you?" |
5093 | To"Did you meet Lord Rintoul''s dogcart?" |
5093 | Tosh asked nervously,"Should I offer up a prayer?" |
5093 | Unhappily, you do not seem to feel-- to recognise-- to know--""To know what?" |
5093 | Was Lauchlan dismissed?" |
5093 | Was it a human being? |
5093 | Was it a ring on her finger? |
5093 | Was it her words or the tramp of a horse that made us turn our heads at that moment? |
5093 | Was it no provoking? |
5093 | Was not all this intoxicating to the little minister, who had never till now met a girl on equal terms? |
5093 | Was not that lightning just now?" |
5093 | Was not that love?" |
5093 | Was she crying? |
5093 | Was she not laughing at him rather? |
5093 | Was she wringing her hands for her son lost in the flood, her son in disgrace with the congregation? |
5093 | Was that a cry?" |
5093 | Was there any other message?" |
5093 | We focht our way through it, but not a soul did we meet; and wha would gang out the day that can bide at hame? |
5093 | We ken they''re some gait, but whaur?" |
5093 | Well, I forgive you; only remember, you have admitted that it was all your fault?" |
5093 | Well, at all events, you knew her brother, Sanders, the mole- catcher?" |
5093 | Were she and Gavin meeting still? |
5093 | Were these berries a love token? |
5093 | Wha telled you the sojers was coming?" |
5093 | What are we to do now?" |
5093 | What are you thinking about so hard?" |
5093 | What caused it? |
5093 | What could I do to keep Gavin and the woman apart? |
5093 | What could have made me return except to fill the pans again?" |
5093 | What did I do? |
5093 | What did I see as I walked quickly along the glen road, with Babbie silent by my side, and I doubt not pods of the broom cracking all around us? |
5093 | What do I say? |
5093 | What do you say to that?" |
5093 | What else makes them ken to jump a verse now and then when giving out a psalm?" |
5093 | What have I confessed?" |
5093 | What have you done with my wife?" |
5093 | What kind of man had he been a few hours ago to yield to the machinations of a woman who was so obviously the devil? |
5093 | What more could Babbie answer? |
5093 | What say you to Bell Finlay?" |
5093 | What was that?" |
5093 | What was the proposal? |
5093 | What was to be done now? |
5093 | What was to be done with the cloak? |
5093 | What were Margaret''s sufferings at this moment? |
5093 | What will our children''s children think o''t? |
5093 | What would he want her to do now? |
5093 | What, you hinna heard? |
5093 | Whaur are they now?" |
5093 | Whaur did you get this, lassie?" |
5093 | Whaur does the flies vanish to in winter? |
5093 | Whaur has he got sic a knowledge of women? |
5093 | Whaur''s the Egyptian?" |
5093 | Whaur''s the extra reverence in wearing shoon twa sizes ower sma?" |
5093 | When Duncan stalked awa the now, what think you he saw? |
5093 | When did you see her?" |
5093 | When he was blind drunk he would order me to see him safe hame, but would he crack wi''me? |
5093 | When is it to be?" |
5093 | When you go to Heaven, will you see grandmother?" |
5093 | Where did you get that ring?" |
5093 | Where did you meet him?" |
5093 | Where is my wife?" |
5093 | Where was his boasted purity in meeting you by stealth, as he must have been doing, and plotting to take you from me?" |
5093 | Who are you?" |
5093 | Who can believe a gypsy if the odds are against her?" |
5093 | Who could she be? |
5093 | Who had made him fling that divit? |
5093 | Why am I so fearful nice?" |
5093 | Why are you so nasty to- day? |
5093 | Why can you not come to me?" |
5093 | Why did n''t I not know about you till after grandmother died?" |
5093 | Why did you not hasten to our assistance?" |
5093 | Why did you not say it?" |
5093 | Why do n''t you go away and leave me?" |
5093 | Why do n''t you shout to them?" |
5093 | Why do you kiss me when I look like her?" |
5093 | Why do you look behind you so often, McZenzie?" |
5093 | Why do you scold me when I have kept my promise? |
5093 | Why had the woman not taken it with her? |
5093 | Why must you be''prudent?''" |
5093 | Why not? |
5093 | Will I let myself be pampered with dripping and every delicacy while you starve?" |
5093 | Will they come quicker when I am big?" |
5093 | Will you pretend, Jeames, that Mr. Duthie could make onything o''Rob Dow?" |
5093 | Would that be sufficient? |
5093 | Would they come again? |
5093 | Would you like me to tell you a story about my mother putting glass on the manse dike? |
5093 | Would you like me to tell you who the little girl was? |
5093 | Would you like to hear all about me?" |
5093 | Would you not have preferred me to be a girl?" |
5093 | Yet did I ever chide you for them? |
5093 | Yet was not that a human figure standing motionless in the shadow behind? |
5093 | You admit you were nasty?" |
5093 | You are not crying, are you?" |
5093 | You are not glad to see me now?" |
5093 | You are sure you do n''t know it? |
5093 | You call him a fool far marrying a young wife? |
5093 | You didna see them?" |
5093 | You dinna credit it? |
5093 | You do n''t believe me? |
5093 | You know Nanny Webster, who lives on the edge of Windyghoul? |
5093 | You mean the man who boasted so much about seeing a ball at Lord Rintoul''s place?" |
5093 | You must understand that?" |
5093 | You saw how she flouted me?" |
5093 | You saw how she kept her feet among her shalls and wills? |
5093 | You see the Egyptian was careless of her secret now; but what was that secret to me? |
5093 | You see why?" |
5093 | You that made the heaven and the earth and all that in them is, can You no set fire to some wet whins, or change this stane into a mill- dam?" |
5093 | You who understand her can doubtless explain these matters?" |
5093 | You will go to the Kaims for the siller?" |
5093 | You will meet me tomorrow about this hour at-- say the Kaims of Cushie?" |
5093 | You winna? |
5093 | You wo n''t smoke? |
5093 | You''ll be content, will ye, if Mr. Dishart just drops in to the kirk some day, accidental- like, and offers up a bit prayer?" |
5093 | You''re no married to him?" |
5093 | You''re no''speiring what her leddyship said to me?" |
5093 | and for another, have I no been at the manse?" |
5093 | and, oh, do you know you were speaking to yourself?" |
5093 | asked Gavin, amazed at his late presumption,"whether you are a gypsy or no?" |
5093 | asked Whamond, relentlessly,"that you''ve seen neither o''them this nicht, nor them thegither at any time?" |
5093 | cried Tosh,"The woman there''s been sic talk about in connection wi''the minister? |
5093 | how are you looking at me so queer, Peter, when you should be thanking the Lord for the promise that''s in that drap?" |
5093 | let dogs worry his sheep? |
5093 | muttered Jean, but she said aloud--"But it micht be that particular rose he liked?" |
5093 | or,"Where was Hendry Munn hidden on the night of the riots?" |
5093 | said the Egyptian, raising her pretty eyebrows,"and how long are you to remain in Thrums, sergeant?" |
5093 | she cried; and then, as I only pointed to her bonnet, she turned to you, and you said,''Was it the black dog, father?'' |
5093 | the minister said bitterly,"are you the man I prayed with a few hours ago?" |
5093 | what would my congregation say if they knew I had let you pass yourself off as-- as my wife?" |
5093 | what?" |
5093 | yes, and the day before too? |
583 | A fine horse, my friend,said the Count, addressing the groom with the most engaging familiarity of manner,"You are going to drive out?" |
583 | A good- tempered, freely- living man? 583 A reason connected with that subject which must not be mentioned between us yet?--which may never be mentioned to Laura at all?" |
583 | A rustling like silk? |
583 | Absolutely nothing? |
583 | Ah, indeed? 583 Aha? |
583 | All in white? |
583 | Am I disturbing you? |
583 | Am I to understand, Sir Percival, that your wife''s room is a prison, and that your housemaid is the gaoler who keeps it? |
583 | Am I? |
583 | And Lady Glyde? |
583 | And Mrs. Catherick? 583 And a hatchet, and a saw, and a bit of rope?" |
583 | And at the different inns? |
583 | And did Mrs. Catherick consent to your proposal? |
583 | And had she been long in her place? |
583 | And his name? |
583 | And she was strangely dressed, from head to foot, all in white? |
583 | And what did she say? |
583 | And where was it? |
583 | And why not,asked the Count,"when your meaning can be explained by anybody in two words? |
583 | And why were they going to London? 583 And yet so like?" |
583 | And you can ask for it without compromising yourself? |
583 | And you entirely failed to find out her name? |
583 | And you found your way to this place yesterday? |
583 | And you left the statement I wrote for you at the police station? |
583 | And you scraped away the sand, and dug a hollow place in it? |
583 | And you told them the news at Limmeridge House? |
583 | And your mother? |
583 | And your shining courageous Brown Molly for the long? |
583 | Another Young Person? |
583 | Any more? |
583 | Anybody dead? |
583 | Anybody ill? |
583 | Are there not other proofs that we might produce besides the proof of identity? |
583 | Are they related to each other? |
583 | Are you a man of rank and title yourself? |
583 | Are you all of the same opinion? |
583 | Are you at liberty to say how you found out my address? |
583 | Are you aware, sir,I said,"that you are talking of a nobleman?" |
583 | Are you calmer now? |
583 | Are you going back to the house, Miss Halcombe? |
583 | Are you going in? |
583 | Are you going to my uncle''s room? |
583 | Are you quite sure of those words referring to my mother? |
583 | Are you quite sure you do n''t recognise him? 583 Are you quite sure you have told me everything that passed? |
583 | Are you ready? |
583 | Are you really going to walk all the way to Knowlesbury and back? 583 Are you sure he is out of the country?" |
583 | Are you sure that your friend in London will receive you at such a late hour as this? |
583 | Are you yourself again? |
583 | Baxter? |
583 | Before you went away,he said,"did you, or did you not, tell the nurse that Miss Halcombe looked much stronger and better?" |
583 | Brought it with her? 583 But how has she lived through all these years?" |
583 | But is it not possible,I urged,"by dint of patience and exertion, to discover additional evidence? |
583 | But surely I hear some horrid children in the garden-- my private garden-- below? |
583 | But when you DID move-- when you came out? |
583 | By the way,he said,"your clients in Cumberland have not heard anything more of the woman who wrote the anonymous letter, have they?" |
583 | By whom? |
583 | Came as a stranger to all of you? 583 Can I tell him that, when the engagement was made for me by my father, with my own consent? |
583 | Can you identify him, sir? |
583 | Can you remember what the writing was? 583 Can you talk to me without feeling frightened, and without forgetting that I am a friend?" |
583 | Come, Nina,he said,"we remember each other, do n''t we?" |
583 | Could I speak to you for a moment, miss? |
583 | Crisis? |
583 | Did Anne remain entirely under your care from that time? |
583 | Did Sir Percival live in your neighbourhood at that time? |
583 | Did Sir Percival say, yesterday, that Count Fosco was to meet me at the terminus in London? |
583 | Did he make his appearance in the village before Anne was born? |
583 | Did he mention his business? |
583 | Did he say anything when you had done? |
583 | Did he stay in the neighbourhood? |
583 | Did it, by any chance, occur to you when you came to this house that I was not the sort of man you could trifle with? |
583 | Did she accept the allowance? |
583 | Did she do so? |
583 | Did she see you? |
583 | Did she seem hurt by your silence? |
583 | Did the forlorn woman whom you met in the high- road seem young? |
583 | Did you ask me why Miss Fairlie was neither well nor happy this morning? |
583 | Did you ever hear the name of the gentleman to whom Varneck Hall belonged at that time? |
583 | Did you ever observe that Anne was like him? |
583 | Did you hear anybody calling after us? |
583 | Did you hear it go past your wall, along the passage? |
583 | Did you hear me? |
583 | Did you know Mrs. Catherick before Anne was born? |
583 | Did you mention names? 583 Did you not hear from the housekeeper that there was a report of Anne Catherick having been seen in this neighbourhood? |
583 | Did you not tell me your former master lived at Knowlesbury? |
583 | Did you remember her, Laura, when she told you her name? |
583 | Did you run out again? 583 Did you say that Mrs. Catherick lived anywhere in this neighbourhood?" |
583 | Did you see any one, or hear any one, in the plantation? |
583 | Did you see the lady? |
583 | Did you tell him? |
583 | Did you try to hide the letter? |
583 | Did you try to save the poor thing? |
583 | Do I look as if I was? |
583 | Do I look curious about it? |
583 | Do n''t you remember my telling you, when we last met, that I was going to Cumberland? 583 Do n''t you see that I want to come in?" |
583 | Do you ask why I come here to tell you of your daughter''s death? |
583 | Do you believe in dreams? |
583 | Do you fear failure yourself, Walter? |
583 | Do you happen to know,I said,"if Sir Percival Glyde is still in Paris?" |
583 | Do you hear that, Fosco? |
583 | Do you hear? |
583 | Do you know anything about those claims? |
583 | Do you know him, sir? |
583 | Do you know many people in London? |
583 | Do you know that man? |
583 | Do you know who this is, Walter? |
583 | Do you know whose dog it is? |
583 | Do you know,I asked,"whether Lady Glyde has come in from her walk or not?" |
583 | Do you leave to- day? |
583 | Do you live in London? |
583 | Do you mean courage enough to claim your release? |
583 | Do you mean to join us at dinner? |
583 | Do you mean to write to him again? |
583 | Do you mean, Sir Percival, that I am to dismiss the indoor servants under my charge without the usual month''s warning? |
583 | Do you mind my closing my eyes while you speak? 583 Do you really mean that?" |
583 | Do you remember driving a gentleman, in the month of July last, from Number Five Forest Road to the Waterloo Bridge station? |
583 | Do you see any carriage I can get? 583 Do you see anything improbable, or contradictory, in his explanation?" |
583 | Do you see nothing there? |
583 | Do you see nothing? 583 Do you still refuse to trust me?" |
583 | Do you still tell me to go? |
583 | Do you suppose that she had money of her own? |
583 | Do you suppose there are any secrets going on here? |
583 | Do you talk in that familiar manner of one of the landed gentry of England? 583 Do you think I would remain an instant in the company of any man whom I suspected of such baseness as that?" |
583 | Do you, indeed? |
583 | Does Anne Catherick refuse to see you? |
583 | Does Miss Fairlie know of that wish? |
583 | Does Mr. Fairlie know----? |
583 | Does Mrs. Todd know what particular passage in the newspaper affected her in that way? |
583 | Does he know anything about the keys? |
583 | Does he understand about registering the death? |
583 | Does it, my love? 583 Eleanor, my good wife, are you all ready upstairs? |
583 | Even a cough that he is troubled with is mentioned, if I remember right? |
583 | Forwards to our time or backwards away from us? |
583 | Gone? |
583 | Had you no father or mother to take care of you? |
583 | Had you no other motive? |
583 | Has Lady Glyde been in the room since? |
583 | Has Mr. Fairlie given you a satisfactory answer? |
583 | Has Mr. Gilmore been advising you? |
583 | Has anybody disturbed you? |
583 | Has anything happened? 583 Has the fever turned to infection?" |
583 | Have I deserved that you should write to me? |
583 | Have I suffered as you have suffered? 583 Have a bon- bon?" |
583 | Have they found him? |
583 | Have you and Lady Glyde been out this evening? |
583 | Have you and Mrs. Rubelle been made aware of the full extent of the mischief? |
583 | Have you any leisure time to spare,she asked,"before you begin to work in your own room?" |
583 | Have you any letter for the post, Miss Halcombe? |
583 | Have you been long back from Cumberland? |
583 | Have you been suffering much from the heat downstairs? |
583 | Have you been writing many letters, and receiving many letters lately? |
583 | Have you felt any apprehension that the misfortune of her loss might be followed by the misfortune of her death? |
583 | Have you forgotten the letter he wrote to her at the beginning of her illness? 583 Have you found no trace of her?" |
583 | Have you found what you wanted, sir? |
583 | Have you got your pickaxes handy? |
583 | Have you heard from him? |
583 | Have you just come in? |
583 | Have you no other security to borrow upon? |
583 | Have you said all you wanted to Laura? |
583 | Have you seen a woman pass this way? |
583 | Have you taken them? |
583 | Her master''s compliments, and would I be so obliging as to say what my business was? |
583 | How are we to get the answer in time? |
583 | How came the housekeeper to know it was Mrs. Catherick''s dog? |
583 | How came you to lose possession of the letter? |
583 | How can I say I do, after the proof he has offered me of the truth of it? 583 How can it be stronger?" |
583 | How can that possibly be? |
583 | How can you show it? |
583 | How could I? 583 How dare you frighten a poor helpless woman like that?" |
583 | How dare you talk to me in that way? 583 How did you come here?" |
583 | How did you find it out? 583 How did you get here?" |
583 | How do you come to remember that, when you have forgotten what she looked like? |
583 | How do you know that, Marian? |
583 | How do you know that? |
583 | How do you know that? |
583 | How do you know? |
583 | How does your speculation look now? |
583 | How far do you want to look back, sir? |
583 | How far is it to Knowlesbury from this place? |
583 | How long do you give me,he asked, putting his third question in a quieter tone,"before the clock strikes and the seal is broken?" |
583 | How long? |
583 | How should I know his secrets? |
583 | How should I know? 583 How should he have known, otherwise, that Mr. Merriman was Sir Percival''s solicitor?" |
583 | How was he to know that his niece was alive when he was told that she was dead? 583 How? |
583 | How? |
583 | I am afraid he has brought you bad news? |
583 | I am afraid the baronet, whose name you are unwilling to mention to me, has done you some grievous wrong? 583 I am afraid you have serious reason to complain of some man of rank and title?" |
583 | I am afraid, Countess, you are not quite so well as usual? |
583 | I am to understand, then, that you hold by the determination expressed in your letter? |
583 | I beg your pardon,I said,"but am I right in supposing that you are going to Blackwater Park?" |
583 | I hope it has secured me your entire confidence in what I have still to say? |
583 | I ought surely to know what I am signing, Sir Percival, before I write my name? |
583 | I suppose no whispers have ever been heard against his character? |
583 | I suppose we have really and truly done all we can? |
583 | I suppose you had your reasons, Mr. Hartright, for concealing that suspicion from me till this moment? |
583 | I suppose you have known Mrs. Catherick for some years? |
583 | I suppose you often saw Sir Percival when he was in your village? |
583 | I was alone with him, Marian-- his cruel hand was bruising my arm-- what could I do? |
583 | I wonder if the housekeeper knows? |
583 | If any doubts still trouble you,I said,"why not mention them to me at once? |
583 | If my signature pledges me to anything,she said,"surely I have some claim to know what that pledge is?" |
583 | If she leaves no children----"Which she is likely to do? |
583 | If the familiar little man treats my mother in that way, how will he treat ME? |
583 | If you do, why should you be surprised at her leaving you? 583 In our homely English phrase, Count Fosco, wo n''t they keep?" |
583 | In that case why not question the housekeeper? |
583 | In what degree? 583 Indeed, my lady?" |
583 | Is Anne found? 583 Is Mrs. Clements an old friend of yours? |
583 | Is Mrs. Michelson gone to bed yet? |
583 | Is he well and happy, and getting on in his profession? 583 Is her mother to be depended on?" |
583 | Is it absolutely necessary to refer to these unpleasant matters? |
583 | Is it absolutely necessary to speak of my marriage engagement? |
583 | Is it absolutely necessary,he asked"that this thing here, under your elbow, should be signed to- day?" |
583 | Is it at ME? 583 Is it consistent with your duty to me to stand there, casting suspicion on me to my face?" |
583 | Is it infectious? |
583 | Is it serious? |
583 | Is it? 583 Is it? |
583 | Is n''t it awful? |
583 | Is that considered a sufficiently secure place for the register? |
583 | Is that letter for me? |
583 | Is that the road to London? |
583 | Is the key in the door, Marian? 583 Is the mark on your arm still? |
583 | Is the turnpike man looking out? |
583 | Is there any doubt in your mind, NOW, Miss Halcombe? |
583 | Is your business connected with my journey? |
583 | It is of your own free will,I said, as the chaise drove through the lodge- gates,"that your ladyship goes to London?" |
583 | It would have broken my heart,she said simply,"if Anne had not been nicely buried-- but how do you know it, sir? |
583 | Knight, or Baronet? |
583 | Like? 583 Louis,"I said,"do you think he would go away if you gave him five shillings?" |
583 | Man? |
583 | Many men of rank and title? |
583 | Many--she came to a full stop, and looked me searchingly in the face--"many men of the rank of Baronet?" |
583 | May I ask in what direction? |
583 | May I inquire whether Mr. Gilmore is in England? |
583 | May I trust to your kindness to excuse me, Madame Fosco, if I venture to speak to you on an exceedingly painful subject? |
583 | May I trust you? |
583 | May I venture to inquire why you express that hope? |
583 | May she not give it in the future,he asked,"if the one object of her husband''s life is to deserve it?" |
583 | Mr. Hartright was employed at Limmeridge as a drawing- master, I believe? 583 Mr. Hartright,"she said,"will you come here for a minute? |
583 | Must I really hear them? |
583 | My act? |
583 | My angel,he went on, addressing his wife,"will your labours of packing up allow you time to make me some nice strong coffee? |
583 | My darling Walter,she said,"must we really account for our boldness in coming here? |
583 | My friend, what can I do? |
583 | Nine, to- morrow morning? 583 No more adventures, I suppose, this evening?" |
583 | No more discoveries, like your discovery of the wounded dog? |
583 | Nor where she has lived since? 583 North or south?" |
583 | Not Anne Catherick? |
583 | Not one of mine? |
583 | OLD Welmingham? 583 Oh yes-- how can it be otherwise? |
583 | Oh, sir,she said,"how do you know it? |
583 | On conditions? |
583 | On your heart and soul, Walter,he said,"is there no other way to get to that man but the chance- way through ME?" |
583 | One of mine? |
583 | Paid down? |
583 | Perhaps you remember the gentleman himself? 583 Perhaps you will not mind delivering it? |
583 | Put off? |
583 | Said? |
583 | Say it is in your hands-- what then? |
583 | Shall I close the window? |
583 | Shall I give this private difficulty of yours a name? 583 Shall I help you?" |
583 | Shall I play some of those little melodies of Mozart''s which you used to like so much? |
583 | Shall I? |
583 | She asked me in return, if I should not be afraid of a man who had shut me up in a mad- house, and who would shut me up again, if he could? 583 She saw nobody from the house then, except a certain Mr. Hartright, who accidentally met with her in the churchyard here?" |
583 | She stopped again, Marian, at that point----"And said no more? |
583 | She told you nothing about the place in which she took refuge after leaving Todd''s Corner? |
583 | Sir Percival Glyde? |
583 | So you know why I am leaving London? |
583 | Spoke to him? 583 Surely a book of such importance as this ought to be protected by a better lock, and kept carefully in an iron safe?" |
583 | Surely you followed her? |
583 | Surely you like this modest, trembling English twilight? |
583 | Surely you remember me? |
583 | Surely you tried to save it, Marian? |
583 | Surely you will acknowledge that your model pupil is found at last? 583 Surely, Laura, you asked what the fear was which she dwelt on so earnestly?" |
583 | Surely, Walter,she said,"you hardly know enough yet to give you any hope of claiming Mrs. Catherick''s confidence? |
583 | Surely,I said,"you do n''t mean to infer that when Sir Percival spoke to you yesterday he speculated on such a result as you have just mentioned?" |
583 | Suspicion? |
583 | Tell me plainly, Mrs. Michelson, did you think she looked fit to travel? |
583 | Tell me, Percival,he said,"have you had a pleasant drive? |
583 | Then what are you wasting your time for here? 583 Then young Mr. Wansborough is a lawyer, I suppose?" |
583 | Then, I ask you again, why did you come? |
583 | There''s a man says he does.--"Who?" |
583 | Was Mrs. Catherick living in service at Varneck Hall immediately before her marriage? |
583 | Was he particularly nervous this morning? 583 Was her husband able and willing to help her?" |
583 | Was it a man or a woman? |
583 | Was it a man or a woman? |
583 | Was she like her mother, then? |
583 | Was the Asylum far from where you met me? 583 Was the Count pointing out the house to him?" |
583 | Was your husband acquainted with them before that? |
583 | We might be tidier, might n''t we, sir? |
583 | Well, Mrs. Michelson,he said,"you have found it out at last, have you?" |
583 | Well, Percival,he said,"and in the case of Lady Glyde''s death, what do you get then?" |
583 | Well, but which will you have, to- day? 583 Well,"said Mr. Gilmore,"what have you found out?" |
583 | Well,said Sir Percival sharply,"what is it now?" |
583 | Were you and Mrs. Catherick neighbours? |
583 | What about? |
583 | What are you going away for? |
583 | What are you laughing about? |
583 | What are you thinking of, Laura? 583 What are you waiting there for?" |
583 | What became of Sir Percival? |
583 | What became of the rustling of the gown when you no longer heard it in the ante- room? |
583 | What can we do, Marian? 583 What change?" |
583 | What did I tell you? |
583 | What did he say when you gave it to him? |
583 | What did she look like? 583 What did you do with it when you found it in the sand?" |
583 | What do you expect from your wife? |
583 | What do you know of those events? |
583 | What do you mean, Laura, by''all''? 583 What do you propose if I leave it all to you?" |
583 | What do you say now? |
583 | What do you see there to laugh at? |
583 | What do you suspect? |
583 | What do you think of that for a woman with a lost character? 583 What does Lady Glyde''s maid want with me?" |
583 | What does it mean, Sir Percival? 583 What does it mean?" |
583 | What does your side say? |
583 | What events do you mean? |
583 | What harm does the light do? |
583 | What has frightened you? |
583 | What has happened? |
583 | What has he done to you? |
583 | What has led you to that conclusion? |
583 | What have I to do with your determination? |
583 | What have you actually got with your wife at the present moment? |
583 | What in the name of heaven has brought you here? |
583 | What is it I am to sign? |
583 | What is it you propose, then? |
583 | What is it, my dear? |
583 | What is it? |
583 | What is it? |
583 | What is it? |
583 | What is that opposite Mr. Hartright? 583 What is the matter, ma''am?" |
583 | What is the meaning of the house being deserted in this way? 583 What is the purport of all this?" |
583 | What is there in the packing- cases? |
583 | What is there to consider about? 583 What is your opinion of the fever?" |
583 | What is your solid English sense thinking of? 583 What is your view of the subject, Count?" |
583 | What keys? |
583 | What letters? |
583 | What made you think of coming to this place? |
583 | What makes you doubt me? |
583 | What makes you think it might have been AFTER? 583 What makes you think that?" |
583 | What misfortune? |
583 | What misunderstanding? |
583 | What on earth is the matter? |
583 | What other misfortune could there be? |
583 | What person? |
583 | What reason can there be on my side for withdrawing? |
583 | What reminded you of that, Laura? |
583 | What reservation may that be? |
583 | What shall I see in my dreams to- night? |
583 | What sort of woman, sir? |
583 | What the devil did Mrs. Catherick want at this house? |
583 | What the devil do you mean? |
583 | What then, Laura? |
583 | What woman? |
583 | What''s the matter now? |
583 | What''s the matter? |
583 | When Sir Percival first arrived in your neighbourhood,I said,"did you hear where he had come from last?" |
583 | When did the change happen? |
583 | When did you show yourself in the garden? |
583 | When shall you be back? |
583 | When the time comes? |
583 | When? |
583 | When? |
583 | Where are the keys? |
583 | Where are you going? |
583 | Where can you stay more properly in London than at the place your uncle himself chooses for you-- at your aunt''s house? 583 Where did you find your brooch?" |
583 | Where is Fanny? |
583 | Where is Miss Halcombe? |
583 | Where is he going to, Marian? |
583 | Where is he? |
583 | Where is he? |
583 | Where is it? |
583 | Where is the gentleman who tried to save him? |
583 | Where should I go if not here? |
583 | Where was the doctor? 583 Where?" |
583 | Where? |
583 | Where? |
583 | Which do you think? |
583 | Which man, my friend? |
583 | Which of the horses has he taken? |
583 | Which she is not in the least likely to do----"Yes? |
583 | Which way after that, sir? |
583 | Which way did it go? |
583 | Which way did she go? |
583 | Which way shall we go? |
583 | Who are you? |
583 | Who can Laura''s correspondent be? 583 Who cares for his causes of complaint? |
583 | Who could it have been? |
583 | Who do you think the gentleman was, then? |
583 | Who gave you leave? 583 Who is Fanny?" |
583 | Who is the brute you call Baxter? |
583 | Who is to do the cooking, Sir Percival, while you are still staying here? |
583 | Who sends the letter? |
583 | Who showed it to you? |
583 | Who told you so? |
583 | Who was the other man? 583 Who''s that?" |
583 | Who''s there? |
583 | Who''s there? |
583 | Who, for Heaven''s sake? |
583 | Whose dog was it? |
583 | Whose dog was it? |
583 | Whose suspicion can we excite, now that Sir Percival has left the house? 583 Whose then? |
583 | Whose? |
583 | Why are we to stop her, sir? 583 Why are you leaving my service?" |
583 | Why do n''t you come in and sit down? |
583 | Why do n''t you help me? |
583 | Why do you ask? |
583 | Why do you stand there? |
583 | Why do you want to see it? |
583 | Why does Marian go to Limmeridge and leave me here by myself? |
583 | Why does it encourage you? |
583 | Why not go, Percival, to the fountain- head of information at once? |
583 | Why not, I should like to know? |
583 | Why not? 583 Why not?" |
583 | Why should you write to Count Fosco? |
583 | Why the devil do you look at me in that way? |
583 | Why, Walter, what is the matter with you? |
583 | Why? 583 Why?" |
583 | Why? |
583 | Why? |
583 | Why? |
583 | Will you be good enough to say that I understand the letter, and that I am very much obliged? |
583 | Will you give me a letter saying those words, which I can show to my sweetheart when he asks how I got the money? |
583 | Will you promise? |
583 | Will you really? 583 Will you say that I consent to whatever arrangement he may think best? |
583 | Will you tell me his name? |
583 | Will your ladyship excuse me,I whispered,"if I suggest that we had better not wait here till Sir Percival comes back? |
583 | With a letter for any one? |
583 | With your opinion of the conduct of those two gentlemen,he said,"you do n''t expect help in that quarter, I presume? |
583 | Without having seen her, sir? |
583 | Without returning? 583 Wo n''t you take your old place?" |
583 | Would he really, Gilmore? |
583 | Would you like to come out with me in the meantime? |
583 | YOU do n''t think I ought to be back in the Asylum, do you? |
583 | Yes, sir? |
583 | Yes-- just now-- Sir Percival----"Did he come in? |
583 | Yes.--"Where?" |
583 | Yes? 583 You are afraid of Sir Percival Glyde?" |
583 | You are afraid? |
583 | You are aware,I said,"that your daughter has been lost?" |
583 | You are going downstairs, Marian? 583 You are living in the village, then?" |
583 | You are not afraid of him, are you? |
583 | You are not going away because you are tired of me? 583 You are not tired of me yet?" |
583 | You believe,she said,"in this secret that my husband is afraid of? |
583 | You ca n''t believe it, can you? |
583 | You come here on business, sir? |
583 | You come here possessed of information which may be true or may be false-- where did you get it? |
583 | You dear old Gilmore, how you do hate rank and family, do n''t you? 583 You do n''t mean an accident?" |
583 | You do n''t mind staying here till I can send you the proper person? |
583 | You do n''t suspect me of doing anything wrong, do you? 583 You do n''t think the worse of me because I have met with an accident?" |
583 | You expected to meet your master here? |
583 | You foolish boy,she said,"why do n''t you beg Mr. Dempster''s pardon, and hold your tongue about the ghost?" |
583 | You found, of course, that they had heard nothing? |
583 | You had a letter from him? |
583 | You have a letter for me, from Miss Halcombe? 583 You have a reason, Walter, for wishing her to know of her husband''s death besides the reason you have just mentioned?" |
583 | You have been out in the woods then, I suppose? |
583 | You have really written them, then? 583 You hear him?" |
583 | You heard what he said to me? |
583 | You hesitate? |
583 | You inquired at the railway? |
583 | You insist on my posting this letter, Sir Percival? |
583 | You know the character which is given to my countrymen by the English? 583 You know your correspondent?" |
583 | You know, Mrs. Clements, why Sir Percival Glyde shut her up? |
583 | You maintain your note on the clause, then, to the letter? |
583 | You mean both husband and wife? |
583 | You mean some other member of the family besides Miss Halcombe? |
583 | You mean,said Marian,"the discovery that Laura did not leave Blackwater Park till after the date of her death on the doctor''s certificate?" |
583 | You positively refuse, then, to give me your signature? |
583 | You posted the letter to Mrs. Vesey with your own hands? |
583 | You provoking old Gilmore, what can you possibly mean by calling him a man? 583 You remember her name?" |
583 | You remember me? |
583 | You remember what he said? |
583 | You said, I think, that she denied belonging to this place? |
583 | You seem to be on the point of taking a journey? |
583 | You still persist in your lowering treatment of this case of fever? |
583 | You tried to make her go on? |
583 | You very best of good old friends,said Mr. Fairlie, leaning back lazily before he could look at me,"are you QUITE well? |
583 | You went to Carlisle, of course, when you heard that? |
583 | You were there yesterday evening, I hear, and you found visitors at the house? |
583 | You will sign nothing, Laura, without first looking at it? |
583 | You wo n''t answer me? 583 You wo n''t trust me?" |
583 | Young enough to be two- or three- and- twenty? |
583 | Your daughter''s death----"What did she die of? |
583 | Your flesh? 583 Your sisters told you the news at Todd''s Corner, I suppose?" |
583 | ''Are you thankful enough to do me one little kindness?'' |
583 | ''Ay, but is he a stranger to her?'' |
583 | ''Did you hear me following you in the wood? |
583 | ''Did you see me at the lake last night?'' |
583 | ''Does he think she stole them?'' |
583 | ''How do I know?'' |
583 | ''Ill?'' |
583 | ''Is your name on your boxes, ma''am?'' |
583 | ''Letters?'' |
583 | ''Not know you were married?'' |
583 | ''Respectable?'' |
583 | ''SHALL I undo the harm?'' |
583 | ''Stop, stop,''says Papa;''is he a foreigner, or an Englishman?'' |
583 | ''Surely you draw yourself?'' |
583 | ''Was it very long ago? |
583 | ''What IS it you have to tell me?'' |
583 | ''What do you want? |
583 | ''What was it I said just now?'' |
583 | ''Why is n''t the register''( meaning this register here, under my hand)--''why is n''t it kept in an iron safe?'' |
583 | ''Will you alter your mind, and tell me the rest? |
583 | ''Would you build such a tomb for ME, Percival?'' |
583 | ''You knew my mother?'' |
583 | ''You understand?'' |
583 | ( Am I responsible for any of these vulgar fluctuations, which begin with unhappiness and end with tea?) |
583 | ( I do n''t keep the inn-- why mention it to ME?) |
583 | ( he used to say)''how do I know that the register in this vestry may not be stolen or destroyed? |
583 | --"Did he do it on purpose?" |
583 | --"Don''t anybody else know who it is?" |
583 | --"Is he dreadful to look at?" |
583 | --"Is his face burnt?" |
583 | --"Not about the face, though?" |
583 | --"What did he want in there?" |
583 | --"Which door?" |
583 | --"Who was he? |
583 | 21st.--Have the anxieties of this anxious time shaken me a little, at last? |
583 | A cutlet?" |
583 | A nice tart for dinner? |
583 | A stranger to Mrs. Catherick as well as to the rest of the neighbours?" |
583 | A stranger?" |
583 | A thousand pardons, Mr. Hartright; servants are such asses, are they not? |
583 | A wretched place this, is n''t it, sir? |
583 | All going to the lake, eh? |
583 | Allow me my Italian humour-- do I not come of the illustrious nation which invented the exhibition of Punch? |
583 | Am I a friend to be treasured in the best corner of your heart, or am I not? |
583 | Am I expected to say anything more? |
583 | Am I famous? |
583 | Am I trifling, here, with the necessities of my task? |
583 | Am I worth those loans of money which you so delicately reminded me of a little while since? |
583 | And between these entries, at the bottom of the page? |
583 | And could he, in that case, be reckoned on as likely to accept the last resource? |
583 | And has your pretty shining Brown Molly come back at all tired?" |
583 | And have you put my hand- bell quite within my reach? |
583 | And murder will out( another moral epigram), will it? |
583 | And what do you think was the something? |
583 | And what does the best of them give us in return? |
583 | And what of the rest?" |
583 | And what was it like?" |
583 | And why are their faces so sadly unfinished, especially about the corners of the eyelids? |
583 | And yet, in his unhappy position, how can I expect him or wish him to remain at home? |
583 | And you really can manage the drawings? |
583 | And you really like the room?" |
583 | And you told him all that Anne Catherick had said to you-- all that you told me?" |
583 | And you, my angel,"he continued, turning to his wife, who had not uttered a word yet,"do you think so too?" |
583 | And-- what next? |
583 | And-- what next? |
583 | Any one you knew?" |
583 | Anybody ill?" |
583 | Are her own interests concerned in keeping it, as well as yours?" |
583 | Are we, I wonder, quite such genuine boys and girls now as our seniors were in their time? |
583 | Are you as fond of me, Walter as you used to be, now I am so pale and thin, and so slow in learning to draw?" |
583 | Are you aware, when I present this illustrious baby to your notice, in whose presence you stand? |
583 | Are you beginning to doubt whether Sir Percival Glyde may not in the end be more than a match for me?" |
583 | Are you insensible to the virtue of Lady Glyde?" |
583 | Are you strong enough? |
583 | Are you sure you have not? |
583 | Are you sure you wo n''t drop it? |
583 | Are you thinking a little too seriously, Marian, of the risk I may run in returning to Hampshire? |
583 | Are you to break your heart to set his mind at ease? |
583 | Are you wondering what you will have for breakfast? |
583 | As far as the boat- house?" |
583 | As your wife, surely it is her interest to keep it?" |
583 | At my age there is no harm in confessing so much as that, is there? |
583 | Boiled chicken, is it not? |
583 | Books tell us that such unearthly creatures have existed-- but what does our own experience say in answer to books? |
583 | But are you really determined to go to Welmingham?" |
583 | But could you contrive to speak in a lower key? |
583 | But how is the proof to be obtained?" |
583 | But if anything happens----""What can happen?" |
583 | But surely there were beams still left in the dismantled cottages near the church? |
583 | But what did you hear about her second attack of faintness yesterday evening?" |
583 | But what other way is possible, now that the time is drawing so near? |
583 | But what rules the mind? |
583 | But what was the mystery to be concealed? |
583 | But where was the register to be found? |
583 | But why do Young Persons in service all perspire at the hands? |
583 | But, my dear Miss Halcombe, my dear Lady Glyde, do you really believe that crimes cause their own detection? |
583 | CAN you undertake them?" |
583 | Can I even remember when the chilled, cramped feeling left me, and the throbbing heat came in its place? |
583 | Can I get a fly, or a carriage of any kind? |
583 | Can I lock it on the inside?" |
583 | Can the business of the signature be put off till to- morrow-- Yes or No?" |
583 | Can there be better testimony in his favour, Mr. Gilmore, than the testimony of the woman''s mother?" |
583 | Can you call to mind driving a foreigner last summer-- a tall gentleman and remarkably fat?" |
583 | Can you look at Miss Halcombe and not see that she has the foresight and the resolution of a man? |
583 | Can you reconcile yourself to our quiet, regular life? |
583 | Can your friend produce testimonials-- letters that speak to his character?'' |
583 | Cast myself on the mercy of my runaway idiot of a husband who had raised the scandal against me? |
583 | Clements?" |
583 | Clements?" |
583 | Clements?" |
583 | Could I look at my failure from no truer point of view than this? |
583 | Could Mrs. Catherick''s assertion, that she was the victim of a dreadful mistake, by any possibility be true? |
583 | Could it really be her mother? |
583 | Could she have told her husband already that she had overheard Laura reviling him, in my company, as a"spy?" |
583 | Could the third person who was fast approaching us, at such a time and under such circumstances, be Miss Fairlie? |
583 | Countess, may I trouble you also? |
583 | Crimes cause their own detection, do they? |
583 | Curious, is it not? |
583 | Did Anne Catherick see Miss Fairlie?" |
583 | Did I thank you at the time? |
583 | Did I think he looked as if he wanted teasing? |
583 | Did he come to the house?" |
583 | Did he know where we lived? |
583 | Did no chance reference escape her as to the place in which she is living at the present time?" |
583 | Did no suspicion, excited by my own knowledge of Anne Catherick''s resemblance to her, cross my mind, when her face was first revealed to me? |
583 | Did she ever suspect whose child the little girl brought to her at Limmeridge might be? |
583 | Did she know that I lived in London? |
583 | Did she stay for any length of time?" |
583 | Did she talk much on that subject?" |
583 | Did she tell you to come here?" |
583 | Did the housekeeper know?" |
583 | Did we forget and did they forget his immortal friend and countryman, Rossini? |
583 | Did we think he looked as if he wanted hurrying into his grave? |
583 | Did you find the friend?" |
583 | Did you inquire particularly about the gossip which was going on in the room when she turned faint?" |
583 | Did you see anything particular in my face when you left me? |
583 | Did you see her at the lake?" |
583 | Did you tell them that Sir Percival Glyde was expected on Monday?" |
583 | Do YOU think it safe, Mr. Hartright? |
583 | Do her shoes creak?" |
583 | Do lawyers make your flesh creep? |
583 | Do n''t anybody know him?" |
583 | Do n''t you see how the case stands? |
583 | Do n''t you see me holding the tablettes? |
583 | Do n''t you think he may have gone away to look for her?" |
583 | Do n''t you think so yourself, sir?" |
583 | Do tell me-- what do you think of the drawings? |
583 | Do the servants recognise her? |
583 | Do you agree to that, Marian, so far?" |
583 | Do you guess what I am thinking about?" |
583 | Do you happen to know if she is dangerously mad, Miss Halcombe?" |
583 | Do you hear?" |
583 | Do you know that name?" |
583 | Do you know the farm? |
583 | Do you know where I am going to?" |
583 | Do you know, sir-- do you know for truth-- that it has pleased God to take her?" |
583 | Do you like coins? |
583 | Do you like etchings? |
583 | Do you mean Count Fosco?" |
583 | Do you mind putting this tray of coins back in the cabinet, and giving me the next one to it? |
583 | Do you mind ringing for Louis to carry the portfolio to your own room?" |
583 | Do you mind touching the bell? |
583 | Do you see any objection to accompanying me to the farmhouse to- morrow?" |
583 | Do you suppose I want to hold them? |
583 | Do you think I shall meet your mother in heaven? |
583 | Do you think Mr. Dawson is wrong? |
583 | Do you think you can repeat it to me?" |
583 | Do you understand now how I hated him? |
583 | Do you want to make any more objections? |
583 | Do you?" |
583 | Does Miss Halcombe assert her supposed sister''s identity to the owner of the Asylum, and take legal means for rescuing her? |
583 | Does flesh mean conscience in English? |
583 | Does he treat her kindly? |
583 | Does it penetrate your heart, as it penetrates mine?" |
583 | Does my poor portrait of her, my fond, patient labour of long and happy days, show me these things? |
583 | Does she know it from you?" |
583 | Does she live here? |
583 | Does she stand better with her trades- people than I do with mine? |
583 | Does she wear white now, as she used when she was a girl?" |
583 | Eight or nine-- which was it? |
583 | Eighteen hundred and what?" |
583 | Even if it was so, how could he have examined the letters when they had gone straight from my hand to the bosom of the girl''s dress? |
583 | Even so fat an old man as Fosco is surely better than no escort at all? |
583 | Every word that was said?" |
583 | Fairlie?" |
583 | Father? |
583 | Gilmore?" |
583 | Gilmore?" |
583 | Gilmore?" |
583 | Good shooting? |
583 | Had I heard Moses in Egypt? |
583 | Had I really left, little more than an hour since, the quiet, decent, conventionally domestic atmosphere of my mother''s cottage? |
583 | Had Sir Percival, by any chance, courted the suspicion that was wrong for the sake of diverting from himself some other suspicion that was right? |
583 | Had he followed me to the inn? |
583 | Had he lunched, and if so, upon what? |
583 | Had he, too, been out before dinner, and been late in getting back? |
583 | Had she been traced and captured by the men in the chaise? |
583 | Had she seen me go out? |
583 | Had the forlorn creature come to any harm? |
583 | Had we any right to let our selfish affection accept the devotion of all that generous life? |
583 | Had we really got rid of him? |
583 | Hartright?" |
583 | Hartright?" |
583 | Hartright?" |
583 | Hartright?" |
583 | Hartright?" |
583 | Has Mrs. Michelson been taking to her bed in the daytime?" |
583 | Has all your experience shown you nothing of my character yet? |
583 | Has any one disturbed you?" |
583 | Has he recovered himself-- and forgotten me?" |
583 | Has she always lived within her income? |
583 | Has she got a better Bible on her table than I have got on mine? |
583 | Has she had any news of her daughter?" |
583 | Has she written again?" |
583 | Has that new heresy of the highest medical authorities ever reached your ears-- Yes or No?" |
583 | Has the day for the marriage been fixed in our absence? |
583 | Have Hartright''s perfectly intelligible prejudices infected me without my suspecting their influence? |
583 | Have I been sitting here asleep? |
583 | Have I convinced your obstinacy? |
583 | Have I done right, Walter? |
583 | Have I dreamt of the right man? |
583 | Have I ever been wrong? |
583 | Have I justified your trust in me?" |
583 | Have I not carefully avoided exposing myself to the odium of committing unnecessary crime? |
583 | Have I satisfied your curiosity? |
583 | Have you any suspicions?" |
583 | Have you been patient so far? |
583 | Have you come here to tell me she is dead?" |
583 | Have you forgotten that your dog- cart is waiting at the door? |
583 | Have you forgotten the conversation that I heard between Sir Percival and the lawyer as they were crossing the hall?" |
583 | Have you got the blind up? |
583 | Have you heard from your client yet?" |
583 | Have you heard from yours?" |
583 | Have you known her a long time?" |
583 | Have you not been complaining of your health, and have you not been longing for what you call a smack of the country breeze? |
583 | Have you nothing more to tell me?" |
583 | Have you questions to address to me? |
583 | Have you remembered it? |
583 | Have you seen your studio? |
583 | Have you, or have you not, lost my place? |
583 | Have you?" |
583 | He only whispered once more,"Where is he?" |
583 | Here''s where he''s been shot, ai n''t it? |
583 | Honesty lives in at the end of his career? |
583 | How am I to describe him? |
583 | How can I describe her? |
583 | How can I pay my debt? |
583 | How can I separate her from my own sensations, and from all that has happened in the later time? |
583 | How can he know me when I do n''t know him?" |
583 | How can we make it more like home still? |
583 | How can you expect four women to dine together alone every day, and not quarrel? |
583 | How do I know who else may see her, who else may speak to her? |
583 | How do they know? |
583 | How do you come to know anything about my daughter?" |
583 | How do you know she is dead?" |
583 | How does your speculation look now?" |
583 | How had I come to hear of the copy? |
583 | How is Miss Halcombe?" |
583 | How many days have I still to wait? |
583 | How many doses of good advice have I given you in my time? |
583 | How much longer do you mean to keep me here? |
583 | How much share have the attractions of Nature ever had in the pleasurable or painful interests and emotions of ourselves or our friends? |
583 | I am a bad man, Lady Glyde, am I not? |
583 | I am afraid my letter must have seriously alarmed you?" |
583 | I am sure you will be kind enough to understand that before I go any farther?" |
583 | I am talking to a Practical British man-- ha? |
583 | I ask myself, I ask my servant, Louis, fifty times a day-- what have I done? |
583 | I count from to- morrow----""Why from to- morrow?" |
583 | I have asked whether Henry the Eighth was an amiable character? |
583 | I have no right to detain you any longer from your delightful pursuit-- have I? |
583 | I have told her this is merely a formal document-- and what more can she want? |
583 | I hope you are not unjust enough to let that infamous letter influence you?" |
583 | I interposed sharply,"have you nothing to say when my sister has said so much? |
583 | I made no reply-- how could I, when I was crying behind my veil? |
583 | I meant his wife and the person--""And the person who caused the scandal?" |
583 | I must tell you this, that, and the other about Sir Percival and myself, must I? |
583 | I never did such a thing in my life-- how am I to begin now? |
583 | I said,''Are you afraid still? |
583 | I said,''Who''s there?'' |
583 | I suppose I shall hear next that you can actually tell me whose ghost it was?" |
583 | I suppose nothing more could be done, sir, than was done?" |
583 | I suppose nothing was said or done to frighten her? |
583 | I suppose the clergyman who officiated here in the year eighteen hundred and three is no longer alive?" |
583 | I suppose we must come to it sooner or later-- and why not sooner?" |
583 | I thought to myself, as I put out the candle;"the woman in white? |
583 | I took the wrong path-- I came back in despair, and here I am, arrived( may I say it?) |
583 | I trace these lines, self- distrustfully, with the shadows of after- events darkening the very paper I write on; and still I say, what could I do? |
583 | I will only venture to hope that you have not thought it of sufficient importance to be mentioned to the Count?" |
583 | I wonder how Blackwater Park will look in the daytime? |
583 | I wonder if I shall like him? |
583 | I wonder if he will ever come to England? |
583 | I wonder whether I am afraid too? |
583 | IS it a chance at all?" |
583 | If Anne Catherick had not died when she did, what should I have done? |
583 | If I could get speech of him that night, if I could show him that I, too knew of the mortal peril in which he stood, what result would follow? |
583 | If I have a scruple about signing my name to an engagement of which I know nothing, why should you visit it on me so severely? |
583 | If I knocked anything down, if I made the least noise, who could say what the consequences might be? |
583 | If I lie down now, how do I know that I may have the sense and the strength to rise again? |
583 | If he was a lost man, what would become of our pecuniary interests? |
583 | If it does n''t concern you, you need n''t be curious about it, need you?" |
583 | If not----""What do you mean by''if not''?" |
583 | If she had not been well enough to be moved do you think we should any of us have risked letting her go? |
583 | If strange things happen to you on this journey-- if you and Sir Percival meet----""What makes you think we shall meet?" |
583 | If that was the case, why should she be anxious to have her visit at Blackwater Park kept a secret from him? |
583 | If the discovery of this makes me uneasy, what would it make HER? |
583 | If the object of my signing was, as we suppose, to obtain money for Sir Percival that he urgently wanted, how can the matter be put off?" |
583 | If we broke open the door, might we save him? |
583 | If we had been rich enough to find legal help, what would have been the result? |
583 | In a sense which might explain her motive in writing the anonymous letter? |
583 | In that case, who was the likeliest person to possess the power of compelling her to remain at Welmingham? |
583 | In the few cases that get into the newspapers, are there not instances of slain bodies found, and no murderers ever discovered? |
583 | In the name of Heaven, what have I said or done to make you think me the messenger of death?" |
583 | In what sense was she using that word? |
583 | Is Miss Fairlie well and happy? |
583 | Is a man in my state of nervous wretchedness capable of writing narratives? |
583 | Is four golden guineas a week nothing? |
583 | Is he a member of one of the Water- Colour Societies?" |
583 | Is he famous? |
583 | Is he going to fatigue that nice, shining, pretty horse by taking him very far to- day?" |
583 | Is he so very much better in this way than the people whom he condemns in their way? |
583 | Is he staggered for one instant in his belief of his niece''s death? |
583 | Is he the cause of your being out here at this strange time of night?" |
583 | Is it Laura''s reluctance to become his wife that has set me against him? |
583 | Is it accepted-- Yes, or No?" |
583 | Is it an indiscretion on my part to ask if you have decided yet on a course of proceeding?" |
583 | Is it hanging about HIS mind too? |
583 | Is it his face that has recommended him? |
583 | Is it my fault that your skeleton has peeped out at me? |
583 | Is it necessary to say that she expressed her sense of embarrassment by shutting up her mouth and breathing through her nose? |
583 | Is it necessary to say what my first impression was when I looked at my visitor''s card? |
583 | Is it not so? |
583 | Is it safe on the chair? |
583 | Is it so serious as that?" |
583 | Is it the indirect result of my apprehensions for Laura''s future? |
583 | Is it to be in my hands or not?" |
583 | Is it too late? |
583 | Is it wise to proceed to these extremities, before you have really exhausted all safer and simpler means of attaining your object? |
583 | Is language adequate to describe it? |
583 | Is she happier now than she was when I parted with her on the wedding- day? |
583 | Is she kept in the neighbourhood to assert her own identity, and to stand the test of further proceedings? |
583 | Is that all?" |
583 | Is that it?" |
583 | Is that pretty drawing your doing?" |
583 | Is that sacred? |
583 | Is that your meaning? |
583 | Is the nurse there? |
583 | Is there a civilised human being who does not feel for us? |
583 | Is there anything else to settle? |
583 | Is there anything else? |
583 | Is there anything wrong in that? |
583 | Is there no doubt in your mind that the person who confined her in the Asylum was Sir Percival Glyde?" |
583 | Is there no possibility of communicating with him earlier? |
583 | Is there nothing more that comes to you from your wife?" |
583 | Is this because I like him, or because I am afraid of him? |
583 | Is this clear to you as crystal? |
583 | Is this the sad end to all that sad story? |
583 | Is your mother alive? |
583 | It began abruptly, without any preliminary form of address, as follows--"Do you believe in dreams? |
583 | It is checkmate for me this time, Miss Halcombe-- ha?" |
583 | It is not earlier, I suppose? |
583 | It looks just the place for a murder, does n''t it?" |
583 | It seems to me to be not only the letter of a woman, but of a woman whose mind must be----""Deranged?" |
583 | It was very kind, was it not? |
583 | Kind words, were they not? |
583 | Kyrle?" |
583 | Kyrle?" |
583 | Lady Glyde-- Miss Halcombe-- Eleanor, my good wife-- which of you will indulge me with a game at dominoes?" |
583 | Lakes? |
583 | Laura, will you come into the library? |
583 | Let me see-- what o''clock is it now?" |
583 | Let us say I am curious-- do you ask me, as your old friend, to respect your secret, and to leave it, once for all, in your own keeping?" |
583 | Married? |
583 | May I beg to know exactly what the object is to which I am indebted for the honour of your visit?" |
583 | May I come as early as nine o''clock?" |
583 | May I come to you to- morrow? |
583 | May I hear it?" |
583 | May I hope that they will be considerately and generously forgiven?" |
583 | May I inquire why?" |
583 | May I make a suggestion, at once the simplest and the most profound? |
583 | May I say, at parting, that it is the dear object of MY hopes too?" |
583 | Merriman?" |
583 | Michelson?" |
583 | Miss Halcombe has promised to trust me-- will you promise too?" |
583 | Must we give up all idea of making any further inquiries, and wait to place the thing in Mr. Gilmore''s hands to- morrow?" |
583 | My cockatoo, my canaries, and my little mice-- who will cherish them when their good Papa is gone?" |
583 | My mistress says to him,"Is it heart- disease?" |
583 | My tone surprises you-- ha? |
583 | Need I say more? |
583 | Nine, surely? |
583 | Nor what her illness had been?" |
583 | Not Sir Percival?" |
583 | Not like London-- is it, sir? |
583 | Now he is in Hampshire, is he going to drive away a long distance, on Anne''s account again, to question Mrs. Catherick at Welmingham? |
583 | Now, about the pecuniary arrangements between us-- do tell me-- are they satisfactory?" |
583 | Of what nature could it be? |
583 | Old?" |
583 | On a calm revision of all the circumstances-- Is my conduct worthy of any serious blame? |
583 | On the other hand, if the second case supposed were the true one, what had been the flaw in her reputation? |
583 | On the other hand, in such a miserable world as this, was it possible to over- estimate the value of peace and quietness? |
583 | On which side did you lose sight of her?" |
583 | Once for all, will you sign or will you not?" |
583 | Once more, Lady Glyde, and for the last time, will you sign or will you not?" |
583 | Or had he followed the Count home from the Opera? |
583 | Or, assuming it to be false, could the conclusion which associated Sir Percival with her guilt have been founded in some inconceivable error? |
583 | Ought we to appeal to the practical test of her handwriting? |
583 | Perhaps I had fastened it insufficiently? |
583 | Perhaps I read her letters wrongly in the past, and am now reading her face wrongly in the present? |
583 | Perhaps he has been made the victim of some political persecution? |
583 | Perhaps he is in correspondence with his government? |
583 | Perhaps there might have been some defect in the adhesive gum? |
583 | Perhaps you have not forgotten either what I said when I consented to our engagement? |
583 | Perhaps you were in some degree prepared to hear this? |
583 | Pesca is long- winded to- night?''" |
583 | Secondly, if the share I took in the matter was such as to merit the expression of her gratitude towards myself? |
583 | Shall I ascertain, at once, if the girl is downstairs?" |
583 | Shall I follow their example? |
583 | Shall I give it to him to- morrow? |
583 | Shall I order for you, shall I market for you, Mrs. Cook? |
583 | Shall Mr. Hartright give you some chicken? |
583 | Shall we drop the subject? |
583 | Shall we ring for Louis again?" |
583 | Shall we shake hands? |
583 | She could not say from memory( who, in similar cases, ever can?) |
583 | She had carefully put the two letters into her bosom( what have I to do with her bosom? |
583 | She looked anxiously up and down the road; shifted her bag again from one hand to the other; repeated the words,"Will you promise?" |
583 | She paused-- twisted the cloth in her hands, backwards and forwards, and whispered to herself,"What is it he said?" |
583 | She suddenly bent forward into the boat- house, and said,''Ca n''t you guess why?'' |
583 | She''s just mad enough to be shut up, and just sane enough to ruin me when she''s at large-- if you understand that?" |
583 | Sir Percival Glyde''s name is not mentioned, I know-- but does that description at all resemble him?" |
583 | Sir Percival wrote back by the next post, and proposed( in accordance with his own views and wishes from the first?) |
583 | Sleepy, did I say? |
583 | Steal after me and touch me? |
583 | Suppose I begin with myself, so as to get done with that part of the subject as soon as possible? |
583 | Suppose he had lived, would that change of circumstance have altered the result? |
583 | Suppose she only wanted to see me and to speak to me, for the sake of old remembrances? |
583 | Suppose the figure should follow us?" |
583 | Suppose you have a little of both? |
583 | Suppose, Marian, it should only exist after all in Anne Catherick''s fancy? |
583 | Supposing you were to make a will when you come of age, who would you like the money to go to?" |
583 | Surely I am not expected to repeat my niece''s maid''s explanation of her tears, interpreted in the English of my Swiss valet? |
583 | Surely Mr. Gilmore, ignorant as he is of Laura''s secret, was not to blame for feeling surprised that she should repent of her marriage engagement? |
583 | Surely it was before the sun rose? |
583 | Surely it would be a cruel candour to tell Laura this, without a pressing and a positive necessity for it? |
583 | Surely my chance meeting with him on the moor has disclosed another favourable trait in his character? |
583 | Surely nothing can be wrong that I do for Mrs. Fairlie''s sake?" |
583 | Surely our delightful Raffaello''s conception is infinitely preferable?" |
583 | Surely she never remained in the village among the people who knew of her disgrace?" |
583 | Surely the plain inference that follows needs no pointing out? |
583 | Surely you have not forgotten that?" |
583 | Surely you would not be here if you were afraid now?'' |
583 | Surely, with that note in your hand, your mind is at ease too?" |
583 | Take her in, Mrs. Rubelle( you have got your key? |
583 | Tears or perspiration? |
583 | Tell me plainly, have you any reason to distrust Sir Percival Glyde?" |
583 | Tell me, can I do this?" |
583 | Tell me, in plain words, do you want my help?" |
583 | The best men are not consistent in good-- why should the worst men be consistent in evil? |
583 | The breaking up of the family? |
583 | The gentleman''s business? |
583 | The hiding of a crime, or the detection of a crime, what is it? |
583 | The money dribbled in a little at first-- but what CAN you expect out of London? |
583 | The obstinate folly of his story is beyond all belief; and you might lead him into ignorantly----""Ignorantly what?" |
583 | The only consideration which made him hesitate, at the last moment----""Yes?" |
583 | The only question I asked myself was-- Had he found her? |
583 | The son( who can blame him?) |
583 | Then he clasped his hand fast round my arm, and whispered to me,''What did Anne Catherick say to you yesterday? |
583 | Then he stopped again, and said,''Will you take a second chance, if I give it to you? |
583 | Then why not make it?" |
583 | Then why not relieve me of the tablettes without being told? |
583 | Then why tease him? |
583 | Then why the devil do n''t you go?" |
583 | Then will you be so very kind as to look into the garden and make quite sure?" |
583 | Then, why hurry him?" |
583 | There are dogs about the house, and shall I leave my forlorn white children at the mercies of the dogs? |
583 | There are two places of that name, then, in Hampshire?" |
583 | There is only one thing I do n''t like about them, and do n''t like about Mrs. Clements----""What is it?" |
583 | There was a third person watching us in the plantation yesterday, and that third person---""Are you sure it was the Count?" |
583 | There, looking at me from the doorway, stood a woman, whose face I never remembered to have seen before--""How was she dressed?" |
583 | There, on the opposite side of the way, I saw the Count, with a man talking to him----""Did he notice you at the window?" |
583 | These two circumstances are surely sufficient to have suggested to the boy himself the answer which has so naturally shocked you?" |
583 | To be repaired?" |
583 | To whom could I apply to know something more of the man''s history and of the man himself than I knew now? |
583 | To whom was it to be addressed? |
583 | Very strange, was it not? |
583 | Vesey?" |
583 | Want of exercise, I suppose? |
583 | Was I Walter Hartright? |
583 | Was I right in attributing this sudden change of place to some threatened annoyance on the part of Count Fosco?" |
583 | Was he in the Forest Road by accident? |
583 | Was he very yellow when he came in, or had he turned very yellow in the last minute or two? |
583 | Was it a bustle of footsteps below stairs? |
583 | Was it at this point that I began to suspect he was going to bore me? |
583 | Was it her shoes, her stays, or her bones? |
583 | Was it likely that a young woman of twenty- one would die before a man of forty five, and die without children? |
583 | Was it my fault that she had lost her place?) |
583 | Was it nine struck, or eight? |
583 | Was it not our duty, our best expression of gratitude, to forget ourselves, and to think only of HER? |
583 | Was it possible that appearances in this case had pointed one way while the truth lay all the while unsuspected in another direction? |
583 | Was it the sort of funeral she might have had if she had really been my own child?" |
583 | Was she young or old?" |
583 | Was the housekeeper the only person who saw her?" |
583 | Was the light that I had been looking for so long glimmering on me-- far off, as yet-- in the good woman''s recollections of Anne''s early life? |
583 | Was the view that I had seen, while listening to those words, the view that I saw now, standing on the hill- top by myself? |
583 | Was there no excuse for me? |
583 | Was this the well- known, uneventful road, where holiday people strolled on Sundays? |
583 | Was this third person, supposed to have been secretly present at the interview, a reality, or the creature of Anne Catherick''s excited fancy? |
583 | We have made as many friendly sacrifices, on both sides, as men could, but we have had our secrets from each other, of course-- haven''t we?" |
583 | We quite understand each other-- don''t we? |
583 | Well, Practical, will that do for you?" |
583 | Well,"she continued, turning to the boy,"and whose ghost was it?" |
583 | Were that woman and I to meet once more? |
583 | What I want to know is this: ought I at once to take such steps as I can to discover the writer of the letter? |
583 | What am I to tell you about Mr. Fairlie? |
583 | What answer could I make? |
583 | What answer could I make? |
583 | What are we( I ask) but puppets in a show- box? |
583 | What are you laughing about?" |
583 | What are you making there? |
583 | What can I recall of her during the past six months, before I close my journal for the night? |
583 | What can this mean? |
583 | What could I do? |
583 | What could be his purpose here? |
583 | What did it mean? |
583 | What did she say?" |
583 | What did she tell you about your husband?" |
583 | What did the Count say of me?" |
583 | What did this mean? |
583 | What did you say the place was called?" |
583 | What do I want with a cook if I do n''t mean to give any dinner- parties?" |
583 | What do you demand?" |
583 | What do you mean? |
583 | What do you mean?" |
583 | What do you think of the programme? |
583 | What do you think, Fosco? |
583 | What does he do when he dies? |
583 | What does it all mean? |
583 | What does she do with those consequences? |
583 | What does this mean? |
583 | What else had I to look to for consolation? |
583 | What else was I to do? |
583 | What else was I to do? |
583 | What evidence have you to support the declaration on your side that the person who died and was buried was not Lady Glyde? |
583 | What excuse can she possibly have for changing her mind about a man whom she had virtually accepted for her husband more than two years ago?" |
583 | What fresh directions, in the terrible uncertainty of my position, could I now issue? |
583 | What further service was required of me by any one? |
583 | What had I done? |
583 | What had become of her now? |
583 | What had been the nature of the crime? |
583 | What had happened? |
583 | What has he said or done to justify you?" |
583 | What has produced this singular fancy? |
583 | What has really happened?" |
583 | What has she done?" |
583 | What have I done? |
583 | What have I observed in Sir Percival, since his return, to improve my opinion of him? |
583 | What have women to do with business? |
583 | What have you to set against them? |
583 | What help was there in those lines? |
583 | What hour is the clock to strike?" |
583 | What if I call it-- Anne Catherick?" |
583 | What if their truth could be proved before the fatal words of consent were spoken, and the marriage- settlement was drawn? |
583 | What if those wild accusations rested on a foundation of truth? |
583 | What if we got one, and used it as a battering- ram against the door? |
583 | What interest have you in me, or in her? |
583 | What is it that makes me unable to blame them, or to ridicule them in HIM? |
583 | What is she like?" |
583 | What is the inevitable consequence? |
583 | What is the least you will take?" |
583 | What is the secret of Madame Fosco''s unhesitating devotion of herself to the fulfilment of my boldest wishes, to the furtherance of my deepest plans? |
583 | What is the trifling mortification of my pride compared to the dreadful sacrifice of your happiness?" |
583 | What is your own private notion of a virtuous man, my pret- pret- pretty? |
583 | What keys do you mean?" |
583 | What next of the one person who holds the foremost place in my heart? |
583 | What objection can she urge against him after that? |
583 | What of the Count? |
583 | What progress had I made towards discovering the suspected stain on the reputation of Sir Percival''s mother? |
583 | What reason? |
583 | What remains before the agent comes?" |
583 | What right had I to decide, in my poor mortal ignorance of the future, that this man, too, must escape with impunity because he escaped ME? |
583 | What right have I to decide?" |
583 | What shall we do? |
583 | What sort of a man is this uncle? |
583 | What style?" |
583 | What subtle wickedness had the Count planned and executed in my absence? |
583 | What suggestions of any mystery unexplained had arisen out of my visit to the vestry? |
583 | What the deuce should I know about it? |
583 | What was I saying? |
583 | What was I to do next? |
583 | What was I to do? |
583 | What was Moses in Egypt but a sublime oratorio, which was acted on the stage instead of being coldly sung in a concert- room? |
583 | What was the gentleman like? |
583 | What was the overture to Guillaume Tell but a symphony under another name? |
583 | What will the Count say?" |
583 | What would Walter Hartright have said in this emergency? |
583 | What''s the news there now, if you please?" |
583 | When I am out of your service, I hope I know my own place well enough not to speak of matters which do n''t concern me--""When do you want to go?" |
583 | When I am totally prostrated( did I mention that I was totally prostrated by Marian''s letter?) |
583 | When did she come? |
583 | When do you mean to sit down?" |
583 | When do you want to go?" |
583 | When the bills are due, is there really and truly no earthly way of paying them but by the help of your wife?" |
583 | When the patient has been released in this doubtful manner, and is taken to Mr. Fairlie, does he recognise her? |
583 | When? |
583 | Where are your eyes? |
583 | Where did I leave off? |
583 | Where did she bring it with her?" |
583 | Where did you find it, Miss Halcombe?" |
583 | Where did you first see her?" |
583 | Where did you get this?" |
583 | Where had she been, and what had she been doing in that interval? |
583 | Where had she stopped the cab? |
583 | Where is Lady Glyde?" |
583 | Where is Laura?" |
583 | Where is the danger of your position at the present moment?" |
583 | Where is the modern Rembrandt who could depict our midnight procession? |
583 | Where is the woman who has ever really torn from her heart the image that has been once fixed in it by a true love? |
583 | Where is your smelling- bottle? |
583 | Whether Mr. Murderer and Mrs. Murderess Manning were not both unusually stout people? |
583 | Whether Pope Alexander the Sixth was a good man? |
583 | Which of them is it?" |
583 | Which year did you say, sir? |
583 | Who can have taken them?" |
583 | Who can have told you?" |
583 | Who can read the letter she hid in the sand, and not see that my wife is in possession of the Secret, deny it as she may?" |
583 | Who could I find capable of travelling to London by the train she travelled by, and of privately seeing her home? |
583 | Who could it have been? |
583 | Who do you think helped Anne Catherick to get the start, when the people from the mad- house were after her? |
583 | Who do you think saw her again in Cumberland? |
583 | Who else is left to you? |
583 | Who gets the first of a woman''s heart? |
583 | Who had begun the cleansing of the marble, and who had left it unfinished? |
583 | Who had done that wrong? |
583 | Who is the English poet who has won the most universal sympathy-- who makes the easiest of all subjects for pathetic writing and pathetic painting? |
583 | Who knows? |
583 | Who was the Count expected to find in the course of his studious morning rambles at Blackwater Park? |
583 | Who wrote them?" |
583 | Why alarm me as well as himself? |
583 | Why ca n''t I make other people as careful as I am myself? |
583 | Why did I only do harm, when I wanted and meant to do good? |
583 | Why did I only have courage enough to write you that letter? |
583 | Why do I confess my curiosity? |
583 | Why do I sit here still? |
583 | Why do I weary my hot eyes and my burning head by writing more? |
583 | Why do you point him out?" |
583 | Why do you suspect me of doing wrong?" |
583 | Why have they all got fat noses and hard cheeks? |
583 | Why have we no variety in our breed of Young Persons? |
583 | Why is n''t it kept in an iron safe? |
583 | Why is there nothing I can do? |
583 | Why lay her on my shoulders? |
583 | Why not call to me? |
583 | Why not end it there and then? |
583 | Why not lie down and rest myself, and try to quench the fever that consumes me, in sleep? |
583 | Why not to- day?" |
583 | Why not? |
583 | Why object, Gilmore, to a portfolio stand?" |
583 | Why should I prolong the hard trial of saying farewell by one unnecessary minute? |
583 | Why should I? |
583 | Why should I? |
583 | Why this outburst? |
583 | Why this withering eloquence? |
583 | Why transfer them to ME? |
583 | Why was this easiest, simplest work of self- culture always too much for me? |
583 | Why-- I ask everybody-- why worry ME? |
583 | Why? |
583 | Will it do?" |
583 | Will she forgive me if I do?'' |
583 | Will that do as well? |
583 | Will the marriage take place soon? |
583 | Will you excuse my obstinacy if I still venture to press it?" |
583 | Will you keep my secret, and help me in this? |
583 | Will you let me alter the light in your room?" |
583 | Will you meet her in the garden at Limmeridge House?" |
583 | Will you pardon me, and spare me, Sir Percival, if I acknowledge that it is not so any longer?" |
583 | Will you promise?" |
583 | Will you rest and lunch downstairs? |
583 | Will you see her to- morrow at the farm? |
583 | Will you take my arm? |
583 | Will you think better of it, and tell me the rest?'' |
583 | Will you think better of it, and try your teeth in my fat neck? |
583 | Will you try to forgive me, Percival, as heartily as I forgive YOU?" |
583 | Wo n''t you fill your glass again? |
583 | Wo n''t you tell it? |
583 | Would I listen to this, and this, and this, and say if anything more sublimely sacred and grand had ever been composed by mortal man?" |
583 | Would it not be far easier, and far less dangerous, to insist on a confession from her, than to force it from Sir Percival?" |
583 | Would other men have remembered that in my place? |
583 | Would success in both those cases do more than supply an excellent foundation for a trial in a court of law? |
583 | Would you like it all to go to Miss Halcombe?" |
583 | Would you mind taking great pains not to let the doors bang, and not to drop the portfolio? |
583 | Would you trust her in other things?" |
583 | Yes, indeed? |
583 | Yes? |
583 | Yes? |
583 | Yes? |
583 | Yes? |
583 | Yes?" |
583 | Yes?" |
583 | You all know where that is? |
583 | You are aware that he had me watched before I left England, and that he probably knows me by sight, although I do n''t know him?" |
583 | You are only wanted to do what Miss Halcombe has done for you---""Marian?" |
583 | You draw and paint, I hear, Mr. Hartright? |
583 | You have got your hat on-- suppose we go and dream away the afternoon in the grounds?" |
583 | You have heard me, you have heard Miss Halcombe, speak of Mrs. Vesey? |
583 | You have heard, Walter, of the political societies that are hidden in every great city on the continent of Europe? |
583 | You have kept Laura, mercifully kept her, in ignorance of her husband''s death----""Oh, Walter, surely it must be long yet before we tell her of it?" |
583 | You have made your inquiries?" |
583 | You have no money at the bankers?" |
583 | You have thought so yourself, dear lady, have you not? |
583 | You heard him say that he was a lost man if the secret of Anne Catherick was known?" |
583 | You heard him tell the Count that he believed his wife knew enough to ruin him? |
583 | You know the old Elizabethan bedrooms? |
583 | You know whose interests I represent in coming here?" |
583 | You naughty boy, when did you see the ghost?" |
583 | You quite understand about that little matter of business being safe in my hands? |
583 | You saw me send the gardener on to the house, with a letter addressed, in a strange handwriting, to Miss Fairlie?" |
583 | You seem to know Mrs. Catherick, Miss Halcombe?" |
583 | You told her so, did you not?" |
583 | You understand now, Mr. Hartright, why I speak of waiting to take legal advice until to- morrow? |
583 | You understand? |
583 | You want something of me?" |
583 | You were a little boy, I suppose, in the year twenty- seven? |
583 | You were not talking of anything very terrible, were you?" |
583 | You will let me know as soon as the arrangement is complete? |
583 | You will pardon an invalid? |
583 | You''re from London, I suppose, sir? |
583 | am I going to be ill? |
583 | am I looking forward to the happier time which my narrative has not yet reached? |
583 | compliments and soft speeches? |
583 | did you call after her?" |
583 | do you care about your wife?" |
583 | have I ever seen you before?'' |
583 | he asked,"or were you just going out?" |
583 | he cried passionately,"do you know me no better than that? |
583 | he said,"why, I should like to know?" |
583 | he went on;"now pray tell me-- what does your side say?" |
583 | how can I help you, Walter, when I do n''t know the man?" |
583 | how many minutes more before I hear the carriage wheels and run downstairs to find myself in Laura''s arms? |
583 | is that sublime?" |
583 | my face speaks the truth, then? |
583 | or are you surprised at my careless way of talking? |
583 | or do you mean to be restless, and secretly thirst for change and adventure, in the humdrum atmosphere of Limmeridge House?" |
583 | or ought I to wait, and apply to Mr. Fairlie''s legal adviser to- morrow? |
583 | or shall I give you some cutlet?" |
583 | or the unknown inhabitants of this Cumberland mansion?" |
583 | or was he only suffering from the heat a little more severely than usual? |
583 | said the Count,"does he indeed? |
583 | said the cheerful clerk;"but when you''re in a lost corner of a place like this, what are you to do? |
583 | says Papa, in a great surprise,''who talked of bank- note? |
583 | she whispered,"we may own we love each other now?" |
583 | was it through anybody in the town? |
583 | we all come to it, sooner or later, do n''t we, sir?" |
583 | what am I to do with them? |
583 | what do you mean?" |
583 | what is there extraordinary in that? |
583 | what shall I do? |
583 | what was I saying?'' |
583 | where is the faultless human creature who can persevere in a good resolution, without sometimes failing and falling back? |
583 | where was Mr. Dawson when Marian went away?" |
583 | who told you?" |
583 | who will dress her for dinner to- day? |
583 | without saying more last words?" |
583 | you saw it yesterday evening, in the twilight? |
583 | you think I shall poison you?" |
583 | you will never lower yourself by making a confession to him?" |
583 | you''re strong on your legs, too-- and what a blessing that is, is n''t it? |
