16787 | Perhaps he had the stronger grasp of other matters in consequence-- who knows? |

16787 | What manner of man he was? |
16787 | What shall I add to this? |
16787 | What was the cause of this special phenomenon? |
16787 | What was the death it would shut in, to that which still could crawl and creep above it?" |
16787 | What was the good of convincing that kindly old soul that the people of his own class had warm hearts? |
16787 | What were his thoughts that summer day as he sat there at his work? |

16787 | Why does a flush of happiness mantle over my little friend''s pale face? |
16787 | Why does he utter a faint cry of pleasure? |
16787 | Why should he not influence his fellow- men, and"battle for the true, the just,"as the able editor of a daily newspaper? |
16787 | Why was the guest so quickly dissatisfied with his host, and quarrelling with the character of his entertainment? |
16787 | Will it fade into twilight, without even an after- glow; will it pass altogether into the night of oblivion? |
16787 | [ 25] And what are the ideas which"Hard Times"is thus intended to popularize? |
16787 | what''s this? |
31394 | ''Any maker''s name?'' 31394 ''Ca n''t you see a happy Future?'' |
31394 | ''How did you know it was the country?'' 31394 ''How should he know anything about it?'' |
31394 | ''Oh,''observed Mr. Pickwick--''from your pen I hope?'' 31394 ''Shall we be justified,''asked Mr. Pickwick,''in leaving our wounded friend to the care of the ladies?'' |
31394 | ''The country,''says Mr. George, applying his knife and fork,''why I suppose you never clapped your eyes on the country, Phil?'' 31394 ''What about the land? |
31394 | ''What are they talking about?'' 31394 ''What do you do there?'' |
31394 | ''What marshes?'' 31394 ''What was it like?'' |
31394 | ''What were the swans doing on the grass?'' 31394 ''What''s all this?'' |
31394 | ''Where are they?'' 31394 ''Where of?'' |
31394 | ''You admire that house?'' 31394 ''You know something about Falstaff, eh?'' |
31394 | Could it be rats, or mice, or owls? 31394 Dickens penetrates here-- where does not his genial sunshine penetrate?" |
31394 | Did he speak? |
31394 | Do I remember Muster Dickens? |
31394 | How long have you lived here? |
31394 | How long have you lived in this parish? |
31394 | How much? |
31394 | That ai n''t a sort of man to see sitting behind a coach- box, is it, though? |
31394 | ''Peculiar Coat,''eh?" |
31394 | ''Who ever see_ me_ beg? |
31394 | ''Who''s a beggar?'' |
31394 | ''Why not?'' |
31394 | ''Would you?'' |
31394 | *****"What might have been your opinion of the place?" |
31394 | After this can you longer--?''" |
31394 | And may I--_may_ I--?'' |
31394 | Are all people over thirty who cling to their Dickens and their Scott old fogies? |
31394 | Are we not too much cultivated? |
31394 | Are we wrong in preferring them to_ Bootles''Baby_, and_ The Quick or the Dead_, and the novels of M. Paul Bourget?" |
31394 | C.''stand for? |
31394 | Can this fastidiousness be anything but a casual passing phase of taste? |
31394 | Could it be the wind whistling through a crack? |
31394 | Did I tell you how many fountains we have here? |
31394 | Did_ you_?'' |
31394 | During our visit we venture to ask the portly housekeeper if she remembers Charles Dickens? |
31394 | Having expressed my willingness and resolution to be faithful to the trust, I said,''I presume, Mr. Dodd, you stipulate for a presentation?'' |
31394 | He looked rather surprised; and asked his solicitor, who sat by him, how they came to overlook this? |
31394 | I ses,''who wants to be in it? |
31394 | I thought some one had fallen on the stairs, and I shouted''Who is there?'' |
31394 | Millen said,"Will you have some, sir?" |
31394 | Mr. Dickens jumped up quickly and said,"Never mind the breakage; is your arm hurt?" |
31394 | Mrs. Hulkes said that when Dickens went to Paris in 1863, he jokingly said to her,"I am going to Paris; what shall I bring you?" |
31394 | Nothing the matter, is there?'' |
31394 | Oh, my eyes and limbs, what do you want? |
31394 | Oh, my lungs and liver, what do you want? |
31394 | One lean- faced boatman murmured, when they were all ruminating over the bodies as they lay on the pier:''Could n''t sassages be made on it?'' |
31394 | One ventures to ask, Where is there a more chivalrous, honourable, or kind- hearted gentleman than Mr. John Jarndyce? |
31394 | Rather masterful? |
31394 | Seven miles out are the Goodwin Sands( you''ve heard of the Goodwin Sands? |
31394 | So he said one day to his sons,"Why not establish a newspaper, if you want a field for your energies?" |
31394 | Surely we have been here before? |
31394 | The Sergeant walked straight up to Mr. Dickens, saying,"May I look at you, sir?" |
31394 | The clerk just looked at the cheques, the signature apparently being very familiar to him, and then put the usual question--"How will you have it?" |
31394 | The former gentleman asked the latter whose model he took? |
31394 | The next question we put is:--"Was there ever such a person as Durdles?" |
31394 | The old chap gave Durdles a look with his open eyes as much as to say,''Is your name Durdles? |
31394 | The questioner says to the labourer,"Do you remember the late Charles Dickens?" |
31394 | This''May I?'' |
31394 | Turveydrop''s?) |
31394 | What will the public say if we allow Charles Dickens to pass away without further medical assistance? |
31394 | What_ would_ Mr. Pickwick say, if his spirit ever visited the ancient city? |
31394 | When Dickens went on his way, one of the man''s fellow- labourers said to him,"Do you know that that was Charles Dickens who spoke to you?" |
31394 | When you have read the proofs, will you kindly return them to me? |
31394 | Whether there was any facial resemblance or likeness of manner did not transpire, but again and again he kept saying,"Now ai n''t you Harry Dickens?" |
31394 | Who were they? |
31394 | Why do n''t you get a shovel and a barrer, and clear your town out o''people''s way?'' |
31394 | Wot does your dirty little town mean by comin''and stickin''itself in the road to anywhere? |
31394 | meant might he shake hands? |
31394 | said I to the very queer small boy,''where do you live?'' |
31394 | who was I,[ he says] that I should quarrel with the town for being changed to me, when I myself had come back, so changed, to it? |
37121 | ''Gratifying, Cobbs?'' 37121 ''Please may I-- please, dear pa-- may I-- kiss Norah before I go?'' |
37121 | ''What may be the exact nature of your plans, sir?'' 37121 Ah, that''s well,"said Dr. Blimber, as Paul opened his eyes,"and how is my little friend now?" |
37121 | Amen to the bells, father? |
37121 | And how did Tim behave? |
37121 | And the presents that I took such care of, that came at my wish, and were so dearly welcome? |
37121 | And what can I do for you? |
37121 | And you know what wittles is? |
37121 | Are they pretty, Bob? |
37121 | Are you ready to go, David? |
37121 | Are you the boy Jo who was examined at the Inquest? |
37121 | Been bolting his food, has he? |
37121 | Blacksmith, eh? |
37121 | Did the boy know the deceased? |
37121 | Do with him? |
37121 | Does anybody open them and shut them? 37121 Have you a friend, boy?" |
37121 | Have you happened to miss such an article as a pie, blacksmith? |
37121 | How dare you ask me if I knew him? |
37121 | How''s mamma, Peggotty dear? 37121 How''s my Jenny Wren, best of children?" |
37121 | I see, I understand,said Bertha,"and now I am looking at you, at my kind, loving compassionate father, tell me what is he like?" |
37121 | Is he sorry not to be there now? |
37121 | Is it very pleasant to be there, Bob? |
37121 | Is that you, Peggotty? |
37121 | Is your brother an agreeable man, Peggotty? |
37121 | It''s impossible,cried Toby,"that your name is Will Fern?" |
37121 | Jo, can you say what I say? |
37121 | Mr. Dick,said Miss Trotwood,"what shall I do with this child?" |
37121 | My own boy, can not you see your poor father? |
37121 | Nor any of the people? |
37121 | Now here you see young David Copperfield, and the question is What shall I do with him? |
37121 | O are you quite sure and certain, Bob? |
37121 | Oh yes; I mean, what can money do? |
37121 | Oh, and is that your father along of your mother? |
37121 | Oh, my eye, where am I to move to? |
37121 | School-- near London--"When, Peggotty? |
37121 | Sha n''t I see mamma? |
37121 | Shall you like to be made a man of, my son? |
37121 | Sir, I have company there,returned Riah hesitating,"but will you please come up and see them?" |
37121 | So,said the convict, looking at Joe,"you''re the blacksmith, are you? |
37121 | Stay, Jo-- where now? |
37121 | Supposing a young gentleman not eight years old was to run away with a fine young woman of seven, would you consider that a queer start? 37121 Was father ever there?" |
37121 | Well, Master Paul, how do you think you will like me? |
37121 | What burying- ground, Jo? |
37121 | What is going to be done with me, dear Peggotty, do you know? |
37121 | What is money, papa? |
37121 | What is my home like? |
37121 | What is the idiot doing? |
37121 | What were you up to that you did not hear me? |
37121 | What''s the matter, constable? |
37121 | What, you are singing, are you? |
37121 | Where are they? |
37121 | Where are you going? |
37121 | Where''s your mother? |
37121 | Which way? |
37121 | Why, pet,said he, kissing her,"what''s- to- do? |
37121 | Wot, about him as was dead? 37121 ''Who is this in pain?'' 37121 A millions times? 37121 Are they locked? |
37121 | At last he exclaimed in triumph,"Why, what am I a- thinking of? |
37121 | But people in Jo''s position in life find it hard to change a sovereign, for who will believe that they can come by it honestly? |
37121 | Could you bring a Norfolk biffin, Cobbs? |
37121 | David was quite anxious to go when he heard of all these delights; but his mother, what would she do all alone? |
37121 | Did you know him?" |
37121 | Do you stick your head out of a chimney- pot?" |
37121 | Harry Walmers junior fatigued, sir?'' |
37121 | I know they are coming a long way off, by hearing them say,''Who is this in pain?'' |
37121 | Is she very angry with me?" |
37121 | Is the light a- coming, sir?" |
37121 | It''s turned very dark, sir, is there any light coming?" |
37121 | Listen, Floy; what is it the sea keeps saying?" |
37121 | Meg, my precious darling, where''s the kettle? |
37121 | Of what use was a girl to Dombey& Son? |
37121 | So comfortable was n''t it? |
37121 | The turnkey, after watching her some time, said:--"Thinking of the fields, ai n''t you?" |
37121 | What does the idiot mean?" |
37121 | What if the spot awakened thoughts of death? |
37121 | What might you please to want, sir?" |
37121 | What place is over there, Floy?" |
37121 | When Master Harry took her round the waist, she said he''teased her so''; and when he says,''Norah, my young May moon, your Harry tease you?'' |
37121 | Why do I like you do you think, Cobbs? |
37121 | Will you promise to have me took there and laid along with him?" |
37121 | Would us, Pip?" |
37121 | You are the young lady, are you?" |
37121 | You''re going away ai n''t you, Cobbs? |
37121 | and says I,''Is there anything you want at present, sir?'' |
37121 | muttered the man,"then who d''ye live with-- supposin''you''re kindly let to live, which I han''t made up my mind about?" |
12933 | And did Mr. Gladstone go? |
12933 | And did Oliver Goldsmith really play his harp in this very room? |
12933 | And do you never admit visitors, even to the grounds? |
12933 | And so you are an alien? |

12933 | Well,said Hawkins,"what did he say to you?" |
12933 | What are you reading? |

12933 | Would you like to become a telegraph- operator? |
12933 | You are twenty- five now? 12933 You mean Walt Whitman?" |
12933 | You speak of death as a matter of course-- you are not afraid to die? |
12933 | A policeman passed us running and called back,"I say, Hawkins, is that you? |
12933 | Alone? |
12933 | And did I want to buy a bull calf? |
12933 | And is n''t that so? |
12933 | And to whom do we owe it that he did leave-- Justice Shallow or Ann Hathaway, or both? |
12933 | Are these remains of stately forests symbols of a race of men that, too, have passed away? |
12933 | Assertive? |
12933 | Besides, who was there to take up his pen? |
12933 | Brown?" |
12933 | But it is all good-- I accept it all and give thanks-- you have not forgotten my chant to death?" |
12933 | But still, should not England have a fitting monument to Shakespeare? |

12933 | He answered back,"What t''ell is the matter with you fellows?" |
12933 | He brings to bear an energy on every subject he touches( and what subject has he not touched?) |
12933 | He evidently was acquainted with five different languages, and the range of his intellect was worldwide; but where did he get this vast erudition? |
12933 | Honeydew: Ay, Jarvis; but what will fill their mouths in the meantime? |
12933 | How can I get in?" |
12933 | How did she acquire this knowledge? |
12933 | How is any education acquired if not through effort prompted by desire? |
12933 | How? |
12933 | I did likewise, and was greeted with a resounding smack which surprised me a bit, but I managed to ask,"Did you run away?" |
12933 | I heard Old Walt chuckle behind me, talking incoherently to himself, and then he said,"You are wondering why I live in such a place as this?" |
12933 | I touched my hat and said,"Ah, excuse me, Mr. Falstaff, you are the bouncer?" |
12933 | In a voice full of defense the County Down watchman said:"Ah, now, and how did I know but that it was a forgery? |
12933 | Is it not too bad? |
12933 | Is not the child nearer to God than the man? |
12933 | Is not this enough? |
12933 | Is this much or little? |

12933 | Of course, these girls are aware that we admire them-- how could they help it? |
12933 | Once they urged him to go with them to an exhibition at Kensington, but he smiled feebly as he lit his pipe and said,"An Art Exhibition? |

12933 | Say, did you know him?" |
12933 | So I put the question to him direct:"Did you see Buffalo Bill?" |
12933 | Stubborn? |
12933 | Then the preacher spoke and his voice was sorrowful:"Oh, but I made a botch of it-- was it sarcasm or was it not?" |
12933 | Then what have I done concerning which the public wishes to know? |
12933 | Then what? |
12933 | Then why a monument to Shakespeare? |
12933 | These things being true, and all the sentiments quoted coming from"good"but blindly zealous men, is it a wonder that the Artist is not understood? |
12933 | Tomorrow we go-- where? |
12933 | Victor Hugo has said something on this subject which runs about like this: Why a monument to Shakespeare? |

11126 | And how do you live, Charley,said my guardian,"how do you live?" |
11126 | And is that why you would put tables and chairs upon them, and have people walking over them with heavy boots? |
11126 | And so,said Dick,"you have run away?" |
11126 | And then? |
11126 | And was he saved? |
11126 | And what do you think of Me? |
11126 | And what have you to do with that, Jenny? |
11126 | And your father was always kind? |
11126 | Are there any more of you besides Charley? |
11126 | Are you alone all day? |
11126 | Are you always as busy as you are now? |
11126 | Are you sure you do n''t feel ill from this long walk? |
11126 | Are you there? |
11126 | Are you tired? |
11126 | Aye, aye,said Dick,"Advertising?" |
11126 | Back in a minute? 11126 Been in front to- night?" |
11126 | Bless my heart,cried Nicholas, struggling in the manager''s arms,"What are you about?" |
11126 | But how was she found? 11126 But is there no more, Nell,"said the old man--"no more anywhere? |
11126 | Call_ that_ a quantity? |
11126 | Charley? |
11126 | Come in, sir,said Miss Wren,"and who may you be?" |
11126 | Complimentary? |
11126 | Could you eat any bread and meat? |
11126 | Dear Nelly, how? 11126 Did she though, really, Charley?" |
11126 | Dinner- mats? |
11126 | Do n''t any of the neighboring children--? |
11126 | Do n''t you think me a queer little comicality? |
11126 | Do n''t you think you''re rather hard upon him? |
11126 | Do you live here? |
11126 | Do you mean that he has deserted his daughter? |
11126 | Do you mean to say you were looking through the keyhole for company? |
11126 | Do you mean,returned the little creature with a flush suffusing her face,"bad for your backs and your legs?" |
11126 | Do you see this? |
11126 | Does the fancy go to my changing other objects, too, Jenny? |
11126 | Girl number twenty,said the gentleman,"why would you carpet your room with representations of flowers?" |
11126 | Has all my agony of care brought her to this at last? 11126 Has he gone?" |
11126 | Have you got a fire downstairs? |
11126 | Have you nothing to say to me? |
11126 | Have you seen it to- day, then? |
11126 | Here, Pretty? |
11126 | How could it be? |
11126 | How did you come here? |
11126 | How do you feel when you are dead? |
11126 | How long have you been cooling your eye there? |
11126 | How many hours do you suppose it costs me to earn five shillings, you infamous boy? 11126 How old are you?" |
11126 | How should I know? |
11126 | How the trying- on? |
11126 | How? |
11126 | I have sent for you, sir,said Dick--"but she told you on what account?" |
11126 | I hope it''s a good business? |
11126 | I suppose you''re agreeable to that, old gentleman? |
11126 | Is Charley your brother? |
11126 | Is it funnier than Punch? |
11126 | Is it here, ma''am? |
11126 | Is that my brother? |
11126 | Is this a theatre? |
11126 | Is what here, child? |
11126 | It theemth to prethent two things to a perthon, do n''t it? |
11126 | Ladies''bonnets? |
11126 | Marchioness, take a seat on the bed, will you? 11126 Marchioness,"said Mr. Swiveller,"have you seen Sally lately?" |
11126 | Marchioness,said Mr. Swiveller,"will you have the goodness to inform me where I shall find my voice; and what has become of my flesh?" |
11126 | Marchioness,said Richard suddenly,"What has become of Kit?" |
11126 | May I ask how old she is? |
11126 | Meaning him you call your father, Miss? |
11126 | Much obliged, but what? |
11126 | My dear, they do n''t care for you, those fellows, if you''re not hard upon''em? |
11126 | Nonsense, uncle,cried the boy reddening again;"how can I help hearing what they tell me?" |
11126 | Now, Gay, what is the matter? |
11126 | Now, do you want any more? |
11126 | Now, let me ask you, boys and girls, would you paper a room with representations of horses? |
11126 | Now,said Mr. Swiveller,"to make it seem more real and pleasant, I shall call you the Marchioness, do you hear?" |
11126 | O my dear father, my good, kind father, where are you gone? 11126 Oh, but please will you come and show the lodgings?" |
11126 | Oh, please drive on, sir-- don''t stop-- and go towards the City, will you? 11126 Oh, please,"said a little voice very low down in the doorway,"will you come and show the lodgings?" |
11126 | Oh, where are they? |
11126 | Perhaps you would not mind walking to town with me? |
11126 | Shall I go on, Beauty? |
11126 | Should you like to? |
11126 | Tell me,continued Richard,"how it was that you thought of coming here?" |
11126 | That is to say, Miss Wren,observed the visitor, rather weary of the person of the house, and quite ready to profit by her hint,"you wish me to go?" |
11126 | The what? |
11126 | They give you everything that you want, I hope? |
11126 | Think what beautiful things we have seen, and how contented we have felt, and why was this blessed change? |
11126 | Tired? 11126 To keep''em safe, sir, do n''t you see?" |
11126 | To make the people laugh? |
11126 | To- night? |
11126 | Very ill, Marchioness, have I been? |
11126 | Was he good looking, Miss? |
11126 | Was he saved? |
11126 | Well, but they''ll see how small you are afterwards, wo n''t they? |
11126 | Well, child,she said,"how do you like this way of travelling?" |
11126 | Well, uncle, how have you got on without me all day? 11126 Were they saved?" |
11126 | What do you mean to say you are-- the cook? |
11126 | What do you tell me, child? |
11126 | What do you want with me? |
11126 | What else do I make? |
11126 | What have they been doing? |
11126 | What have they done with my mamma? |
11126 | What if we are? |
11126 | What shall be changed after him? |
11126 | What would be the good of blowing in pepper? |
11126 | What would become of me without her? |
11126 | What''s the news indoors? |
11126 | What''s the news out of doors? |
11126 | What''s this? |
11126 | Where are they? |
11126 | Where are you going to seek your fortune? |
11126 | Where is Charley now? |
11126 | Where is he coming from, Miss? |
11126 | Whereabouts are my clothes? |
11126 | Whether,he said,"whether any instructor or servant can have suggested anything? |
11126 | Which of them was dead? |
11126 | Which way? |
11126 | Who are they? |
11126 | Who else is at home? |
11126 | Who has locked you up here alone? |
11126 | Who? |
11126 | Why did you bring me here? |
11126 | Why did you run away from''em? |
11126 | Why do n''t you show''em yourself? 11126 Why has he been-- so very much-- goosed?" |
11126 | Why not? |
11126 | Why, bless you, child, what are you thinking of? 11126 Why, how is this?" |
11126 | Why, who are you? |
11126 | Will you bring him sometimes, to see his father, Tilly? |
11126 | Will you never rest? |
11126 | Wo n''t you come in and warm yourself, godmother? |
11126 | Won what, ma''am? |
11126 | Would it be any breach of confidence, Marchioness, to relate what they say of the humble individual who has now the honor to--? |
11126 | Would that suit your case? 11126 Would you give your great- uncle Lillyvick a kiss, if he was to ask you, Morleena?" |
11126 | You are sure? |
11126 | You did n''t find it, then? |
11126 | You do n''t live here alone, do you, Miss? |
11126 | You have been walking a long way? |
11126 | You have never been to school,I said,"have you?" |
11126 | You hear this, girl? |
11126 | You may, sir,replied Mr. Crummles,"She is ten years of age, sir,""Not more?" |
11126 | You would n''t mind my cutting out something while we are at tea, would you? |
11126 | Your daughter? |
11126 | Your grandchild, friend? |
11126 | _ Him_, HIM, HIM? |
11126 | --adding breathlessly--"Why gracious me,_ where''s our house_?" |
11126 | After that lapse of time he resumed his sitting posture, and inquired,--"And where do you live, Marchioness?" |
11126 | An idea flashed suddenly upon her-- what if the figure should enter there, and have a design upon the old man''s life? |
11126 | And I said,''have you hurt yourself father?'' |
11126 | And that''s how I know how, do n''t you see, sir?" |
11126 | And the little girl I saw on that first day at Mr. Wickfield''s, where is she? |
11126 | And to this minute you have n''t said what you''ve come for?" |
11126 | And what comes now? |
11126 | And would you please to shut the street door first? |
11126 | Beckoning to her to ascend the steps, she asked,--"Are you hungry?" |
11126 | But as you ca n''t, the question is, what is it best to do for Kit?" |
11126 | But the child, instead of advancing, looked her earnestly in the face, and said:"What have you done with my mamma?" |
11126 | Ca n''t you say who won the Helter- Skelter Plate when you''re asked a question civilly?" |
11126 | Did you ever taste beer?" |
11126 | Did you think whose it was?" |
11126 | Do I look as if I know''d them? |
11126 | Do n''t look round--"Florence had hardly power to repeat,"Why not?" |
11126 | Do n''t they, Tom?" |
11126 | Do n''t you, Tom?" |
11126 | Do you ever see horses walking up and down the sides of rooms in reality-- in fact? |
11126 | Do you want a good situation for your granddaughter, master? |
11126 | Do you-- do you know them, ma''am?" |
11126 | Does this caravan look as if it know''d''em?" |
11126 | He doctors sick horses, I dare say?" |
11126 | He was your nat''r''l born friend like, wa''n''t he, Pet? |
11126 | His face brightened as he shook hands with uncle and nephew; but he seemed to be of a laconic disposition, and merely said:"How goes it?" |
11126 | How could such a collection be here? |
11126 | How was my daughter found, sir? |
11126 | I say, uncle, is n''t this an adventure?" |
11126 | I understand you have been in the habit of reading to your father, and what did you read to him, Jupe?" |
11126 | If you would n''t mind walking in, sir? |
11126 | Is Walter''s uncle here?" |
11126 | Is dinner ready? |
11126 | Is it you? |
11126 | Is n''t this a prosperous nation, and a''n''t you in a thriving state? |
11126 | Is n''t this a prosperous nation? |
11126 | It was here that Susan Nipper found her, and said would she go downstairs to her papa, who wished to speak to her? |
11126 | Miss Florence has just come home, has n''t she?" |
11126 | Mr. Brass is of the same opinion, I suppose?" |
11126 | Not pretty, is it?" |
11126 | Now, what is to be done?" |
11126 | Now, wo n''t you help this poor girl, Mr. Johnson, by calling with her to- morrow morning upon one or two of the principal people?" |
11126 | Of what?" |
11126 | Oh, what_ shall_ I do?" |
11126 | On the following morning, Mr. Short asked Nell,"And where are you going to- day?" |
11126 | Please, may I look at it?" |
11126 | She beckoned the Jew towards her, and whispered:"Child or woman?" |
11126 | She thought upon the way down, would she dare to kiss him? |
11126 | Sloppy could n''t make it out;"with, who did you say, Miss?" |
11126 | The Baron Sampsono Brasso and his fair sister are, you tell me, at the Play?" |
11126 | Then she asked:"Did your father know so much himself, that he wished you to be well taught too?" |
11126 | There''th nothing comfortable to tell; why unthettle her mind, and make her unhappy? |
11126 | This child,"he added after a few moments,"Could she possibly continue this?" |
11126 | To which the only reply was,"Oh, please, will you come and show the lodgings?" |
11126 | Upon perceiving the invalid to be awake, Mr. Garland stretched out his hand, and inquired how Mr. Swiveller felt; adding"And what can we do for you?" |
11126 | Was I a happy man once, and have I lost happiness and all I had, for this?" |
11126 | Was Mr. Dombey pleased to see this? |
11126 | Was it all taken-- was there nothing left?" |
11126 | Was one?" |
11126 | Well, is it good?" |
11126 | What do I make with my straw?" |
11126 | What do you mean by it?" |
11126 | What do you mean, boy?" |
11126 | What do you say to the rest of it?" |
11126 | What do you say?" |
11126 | What else do I make?" |
11126 | What have you got in that bottle you are carrying?" |
11126 | What is the percentage? |
11126 | What is your father?" |
11126 | What is your remark on that proportion? |
11126 | What other changes have come upon me, beside the changes in my growth and looks, and in the knowledge I have garnered all this while? |
11126 | What shall I do to save him?" |
11126 | What sight was that which met her view? |
11126 | What was that you told me before we left the old house?--that if they knew what we were going to do, they would say that you were mad, and part us?" |
11126 | What''s your name?" |
11126 | When is he coming, Miss?" |
11126 | When should I ever tire of her? |
11126 | Where are they?" |
11126 | Where were the traces of her early cares, her sufferings, and fatigues? |
11126 | Where would have been my duty to my poor lost boy, if I had not tried everything?" |
11126 | Whether, in spite of all precautions, any idle story- book can have got into the house for Louisa or Thomas to read? |
11126 | Who could have taken it but Kit? |
11126 | Who found her?" |
11126 | Who is that girl?" |
11126 | Who knows but they shone as brightly in the eyes of angels as golden gifts that have been chronicled on tombs? |
11126 | Who knows? |
11126 | Why did you force me to leave it?" |
11126 | Why would n''t you?" |
11126 | Why, I know of fifteen- and- sixpence that came to Southampton last month to see me dance the Highland Fling, and what''s the consequence? |
11126 | Why, how old are you?" |
11126 | Will you let me try to mend it for you? |
11126 | Would you not be always in pain then?" |
11126 | Would you use a carpet having a representation of flowers upon it?" |
11126 | Would you, deary?" |
11126 | Yet, what was to be done? |
11126 | You have been in the habit now of reading to your father, and those people I found you among, I dare say?" |
11126 | You have n''t got needle and thread, I suppose?" |
11126 | Your father breaks horses, do n''t he?" |
11126 | _ I_ done? |
11126 | and wo n''t your pa be angry neither?" |
11126 | asked Charley Hexam, staring? |
11126 | asked Dick,"His mother, what has become of her?" |
11126 | cried Mr. Dombey,"What does she mean,--what is this?" |
11126 | cried the lady of the caravan,"Yes, to be sure-- Who won the Helter- Skelter Plate?" |
11126 | distracted by such terrors? |
11126 | inquired her mistress, drying her eyes;"when I ca n''t live here, and have gone to my old home?" |
11126 | said Dick, taking down his hat"Yes? |
11126 | said Mr. Abel, kindly,"You have been ill?" |
11126 | said Mr. Gradgrind, leading each away by a hand;"what do you do here?" |
11126 | said Nicholas;"a family, I suppose?" |
11126 | said the boy,"What are you about? |
11126 | what are you up to, my dear?" |
11126 | what is this?" |
11227 | A new one? |
11227 | Ai n''t it, Nickleby? |
11227 | All of''em, ma''am? |
11227 | Am I to come again, Miss Havisham? |
11227 | And how did little Tim behave? |
11227 | And what are you thinking about me? |
11227 | And what does the boy say? |
11227 | And what have you got, my dear? |
11227 | And where is my old nurse? |
11227 | And where the deuce ha''you been? |
11227 | And which? |
11227 | And who is this? 11227 And you''ll try and learn a great deal here and be a clever man,"said Mr. Dombey;"wo n''t you?" |
11227 | Anything else? |
11227 | Anything, papa? |
11227 | Are you ready to go, David? |
11227 | Are you ready to play? |
11227 | Are you sure? |
11227 | At any particular time, Miss Havisham? |
11227 | At which he takes aim? |
11227 | Aye, aye, aye? 11227 But at least there was dogs, Pip? |
11227 | But come,said Squeers,"let''s go to the schoolroom; and lend me a hand with my school- coat, will you?" |
11227 | But not all of it? 11227 But what is the matter, Floy?" |
11227 | But what''s this? |
11227 | But where? |
11227 | Ca n''t you, indeed, David? |
11227 | Can this be possible, uncle? |
11227 | Cruel? |
11227 | David,he said, making his lips thin, by pressing them together,"if I have an obstinate horse or dog to deal with, what do you think I do?" |
11227 | Dead, miss? 11227 Dead?" |
11227 | Did I ever see any kind face like mama''s looking at me when I was a baby, Floy? |
11227 | Did you see any of these pretty things, my dear? |
11227 | Did you tell me just now, that your master had n''t gone out to- night? |
11227 | Do you hear, Paul? |
11227 | Do you hear? |
11227 | Do you know this thing, this child? |
11227 | Do you know what I touch here? |
11227 | Do you live in London? |
11227 | Do you see that old cove at the book- stall? |
11227 | Dog,said he,"What dog?" |
11227 | Driven to do it, were you? |
11227 | Eh? |
11227 | Floy, did I ever see mama? |
11227 | Floy,he said,"what is that?" |
11227 | For what? |
11227 | Give me my box and money, will you? |
11227 | Going to London? |
11227 | Got any lodgings? |
11227 | Has he robbed you? |
11227 | Have you anything to say? |
11227 | Have you happened to miss such an article as a pie, blacksmith? |
11227 | Have you-- did anybody-- has nothing been heard-- about me? |
11227 | He still keeps behind us,repeats Jasper, looking back,"is he to follow us?" |
11227 | How came you here? |
11227 | How came you to think of him? |
11227 | How much of your Latin Grammar do you know, Dombey? |
11227 | Hurrah? |
11227 | I dare not; and even if I might, what good would a kind word do you, Kit? 11227 I hope, Mr. Dombey,"said the doctor laying down his book,"that the arrangements meet with your approval?" |
11227 | I mean, papa, what can it do? |
11227 | I suppose you want some place to sleep in to- night, do n''t you? |
11227 | I suppose you''re Christopher, sir? |
11227 | I think it was Kit who said I was an uglier dwarf than could be seen anywhere for a penny, was n''t it? 11227 I think they must certainly come to- morrow, eh, mother?" |
11227 | If the bull was mad,said Paul,"how did he know that the boy had asked questions? |
11227 | In the hat? |
11227 | Is he to follow us? |
11227 | Is he worse? |
11227 | Is it gone? |
11227 | Is it much farther to Dotheboys Hall, sir? |
11227 | Is my handkerchief hanging out of my pocket, my dear? |
11227 | Is she dead, too? 11227 Is that its-- his-- name?" |
11227 | Is that the reason why Miss Murdstone took the clothes out of my drawers? |
11227 | Is your brother an agreeable man, Peggotty? |
11227 | It ca n''t make me strong and quite well, either, papa; can it? |
11227 | It is n''t cruel, is it? |
11227 | Jo, can you say what I say? |
11227 | Jo? |
11227 | Just fill that mug up with lukewarm water, William, will you? |
11227 | Large or small? |
11227 | Let go of Who is it? 11227 Lined?" |
11227 | May I-- may I go with you? |
11227 | Money? |
11227 | My mistress? |
11227 | No consequence? 11227 No, darling; why?" |
11227 | Noodle,said my sister,"who said she knew him? |
11227 | Not coming? |
11227 | Not good- bye? |
11227 | Not if it should happen to have been a tame bull, you little infidel? |
11227 | Not polite? |
11227 | Not so much as one short prayer? |
11227 | Now, Dombey, how have you got on with those books? |
11227 | Now, boy,he said,"what was Miss Havisham a- doing of when you went in to- day?" |
11227 | Nurse me? |
11227 | Oh, it''s you, is it? |
11227 | Oh, that''s the milk and water, is it, William? |
11227 | Pip? |
11227 | Remain quietly here until such a document is drawn up, and proceed with me to such a place as I may deem advisable, to attest it? |
11227 | Sha n''t I see mama? |
11227 | Shall I go away, aunt? |
11227 | Shall we make a man of him? |
11227 | So,said my convict, looking at Joe,"so you''re the blacksmith, are you? |
11227 | Stay, Jo, what now? |
11227 | Taken away?--In the night? |
11227 | Tar? |
11227 | That ship- looking thing? |
11227 | That''s not it? |
11227 | The old gentleman over the way? |
11227 | Then what did you say''nothing''for, sir? |
11227 | This is twopenn''orth of milk, is it waiter? |
11227 | To the wery top, sir? |
11227 | WHICH ART IN HEAVEN,"Art in Heaven-- is the light a- coming, sir? |
11227 | Was anybody else there? |
11227 | We do n''t know what you''ve done, but we would n''t have you starve to death for it, poor miserable fellow- creature, would we, Pip? |
11227 | Weel then, dinnot stop,replied John;"who waants thee to stop? |
11227 | Well, Jo, what is the matter? 11227 Well, boy,"said Mr. Witherden,"you came to work out that shilling,--not to get another, hey?" |
11227 | Well,said Mr. Jaggers,"what if I were to make you a present as compensation?" |
11227 | Well,said the Jew,"I hope you''ve been at work this morning, my dears?" |
11227 | What are you a- telling of, Pip? |
11227 | What are you bothering about there, Smike? |
11227 | What are you doing to the man? |
11227 | What can the boy mean? |
11227 | What do I touch? |
11227 | What do you want with her, boy? |
11227 | What do you watch me for? 11227 What does that mean?" |
11227 | What has ever got your precious father, then? |
11227 | What has he done? |
11227 | What has the man done to you? |
11227 | What have I done? |
11227 | What have you done? |
11227 | What have_ you_ got, Dodger? |
11227 | What is going to be done with me, Peggotty dear? |
11227 | What is money, Paul? |
11227 | What is money? |
11227 | What is that to you? |
11227 | What of that? 11227 What''ll Fagin say?" |
11227 | What''s that, sir? |
11227 | What''s that? |
11227 | What''s that? |
11227 | What''s that? |
11227 | What''s the matter? |
11227 | What''s the matter? |
11227 | What''s to do here, thou yoong dogs? |
11227 | What? |
11227 | When did he come from London? |
11227 | When shall I have you here again? |
11227 | When, Peggotty? |
11227 | Where can I possibly move to more nor I do? |
11227 | Where did you get swords from? |
11227 | Where have you been, you young monkey? |
11227 | Where to, sir? |
11227 | Where was this coach, in the name of gracious? |
11227 | Where, dearest? |
11227 | Where? |
11227 | Who cried stop? |
11227 | Who gave you leave to prowl about? 11227 Who has ill- used him, you girl?" |
11227 | Who is it? |
11227 | Who took you away? |
11227 | Who''s firing? |
11227 | Who''s your tailor? |
11227 | Whom are you talking to? |
11227 | Whose, Floy? |
11227 | Why did n''t money save me my mama? |
11227 | Why do you kneel to me? |
11227 | Why have you come here now? |
11227 | Why how ever could tar come there? |
11227 | Why not? |
11227 | Why not? |
11227 | Why will it never stop, Floy? |
11227 | Why, Peggotty,I said, ruefully,"is n''t she come home?" |
11227 | Why, bless my heart,says Mr. Snagsby,"what''s the matter?" |
11227 | Why, what had you been doing? |
11227 | Why, where''s our Martha? |
11227 | Why? |
11227 | Will you set your hand to a statement of truth and facts, and repeat it before witnesses? |
11227 | You are as strong and well as such little people usually are? 11227 You are not afraid of a woman who has not seen the sun since you were born?" |
11227 | You do n''t believe it, sir? |
11227 | You do n''t believe that I did what they accuse me of, mother, dear? |
11227 | You remember all that about Miss Havisham''s? |
11227 | You were not awake an hour ago? |
11227 | You''d like to be able to make pocket- handkerchiefs as easy as Charley Bates, would n''t you, my dear? |
11227 | Your father''s regularly rich, ai n''t he? |
11227 | A man may call his house an island if he likes; there''s no act of Parliament against that, I believe?" |
11227 | Am I, sir?" |
11227 | An''t I unfortnet enough for you yet? |
11227 | And could n''t Uncle Pumblechook, being always thoughtful for us, then mention this boy, that I have forever been a willing slave to?" |
11227 | And please what''s Hulks?" |
11227 | Are you ready?" |
11227 | As to his situation-- which was a precious one, was n''t it?--do you suppose I am not going to write home and take care that he gets some money?" |
11227 | But what did he do with you?" |
11227 | But why not have brought him?" |
11227 | But will you promise to have me took there, sir, and laid along with him?" |
11227 | Ca n''t you never let such an unfortnet as me alone? |
11227 | Come, Pip, if there warn''t no weal cutlets, at least there was dogs? |
11227 | Could n''t she ask Uncle Pumblechook if he knew of a boy to go and play there? |
11227 | Davy boy, how do you do?" |
11227 | Did she hear them? |
11227 | Do n''t you know me?" |
11227 | Do n''t you know, Pip?" |
11227 | Do you know it? |
11227 | Do you think I have grown old- fashioned?" |
11227 | Eh?" |
11227 | Finally, I rose, and with a fast- beating heart said,"Steerforth, wo n''t you speak to me?" |
11227 | Floy are we all dead except you?" |
11227 | Hark, what''s that?" |
11227 | Have you been here ever since?" |
11227 | He produced a purse and counted out the money, then eyeing Joe, he said,"Well, Joe Gargery, you look dumbfounded?" |
11227 | He says to the woman,"What has he done?" |
11227 | He was gobbling mincemeat, meat- bone, bread, cheese, and pork pie all at once, when he turned suddenly and said:"You''re not a deceiving imp? |
11227 | How can you do it to me, boys?" |
11227 | How could my character fail to be influenced by such surroundings? |
11227 | How dare you trespass? |
11227 | How do you do, my little friend?" |
11227 | How is my little friend now?" |
11227 | How unfortnet do you want me for to be? |
11227 | However, I got dressed, and I said,"Can I help you?" |
11227 | I mean what is money after all?" |
11227 | I waited a while, and then as a last resort, I said,--"Mrs. Joe, I should like to know-- if you would n''t much mind-- where the firing comes from?" |
11227 | I was flushed with her summary of delights, and replied that it would indeed be a treat, but what would my mother say? |
11227 | I was passing out without looking at her, when she touched me with a taunting cry,----"Why do n''t you cry?" |
11227 | Is he here?" |
11227 | Is he ready to go? |
11227 | Is it to be wondered at if my thoughts were dazed, as my eyes were, when I came out into the natural light from the misty yellow rooms? |
11227 | Is she come?" |
11227 | Is there any light a- coming?" |
11227 | Is this my old nurse?" |
11227 | It was n''t your fault; it was mine, I suppose-- eh?" |
11227 | It''s a pretty sort of thing that I should have to feed a great fellow like you, and never hope to get one penny for it, is n''t it?" |
11227 | Jo, is it thou? |
11227 | Likewise when they says,''What''s your religion?'' |
11227 | Mother and I have got a poor one, and why not come there, till he''s had time to look about and find a better? |
11227 | Mrs. Squeers, my dear, will you take the money?" |
11227 | My dear, do you see?" |
11227 | My hearers stared at one another-- as they well might-- and repeated,"In a black velvet coach?" |
11227 | Nickleby?" |
11227 | Now what do you say?" |
11227 | Now, Dombey,"said Miss Blimber, laying down the paper,"do you understand? |
11227 | Now, then, where''s the first boy?" |
11227 | Oh, Kit, what_ have_ you done? |
11227 | On one of these occasions, when they had both been perfectly quiet for a long time, little Paul broke the silence thus:"Papa, what''s money?" |
11227 | Paul looked it in the face and thought, was this his father? |
11227 | Presently a window was raised and a voice asked"What name?" |
11227 | Robbed me? |
11227 | Says the coroner,"Is that boy here?" |
11227 | Shall I carry your bundle?" |
11227 | Shall us, Oliver, eh?" |
11227 | She looked searchingly at me and then asked,"If you are unwilling to play, boy, are you willing to work?" |
11227 | Spell it? |
11227 | The child made no audible answer, and Doctor Blimber continued,"You would wish my little friend to acquire----?" |
11227 | The crafty dwarf stopped short in his answer, and said,----"Now, who do you think?" |
11227 | Then she spoke,"Who is it?" |
11227 | There are a good many of''em, ai n''t there? |
11227 | They surely could n''t stop away more than a week, could they now?" |
11227 | Third boy, what''s a horse?" |
11227 | This I denied in the face of Joe''s most forcible arguments, and at the end of our talk, I said,"You are not angry with me, Joe?" |
11227 | This early trial of yours that is fit to make your little heart burst, and your very eyes come out of your head with crying, what is it? |
11227 | Was she glad to know it? |
11227 | Weak still, and stupified by the suddenness of the attack, overpowered and helpless, what could one poor child do? |
11227 | Well, boy, and what did you play at?" |
11227 | Well, well? |
11227 | What are you stopping me for?" |
11227 | What could I do but follow him? |
11227 | What did he earn by it? |
11227 | What do you think of her?" |
11227 | What have I done to her? |
11227 | What have you seen? |
11227 | What is that upon your face?" |
11227 | What is the matter?" |
11227 | What possessed you?" |
11227 | What was he before? |
11227 | What work did he do? |
11227 | What''s home? |
11227 | What''s that?" |
11227 | What''s the row?" |
11227 | What''s the row?" |
11227 | When he had finished, she turned to Miss Murdstone, and said:"Well, ma''am, have_ you_ got anything to remark?" |
11227 | When they says to me in the Lockup,''What''s your name?'' |
11227 | Where do you expect to go to? |
11227 | Where had poor Jo moved on to now? |
11227 | Where have you been, this long, long while?" |
11227 | Where is papa?" |
11227 | Where''s the second boy?" |
11227 | Where, you know?" |
11227 | Which is the man?" |
11227 | Who is the monster, child?" |
11227 | Who stood on the bank? |
11227 | Why are you awake? |
11227 | Why was the child thus carried? |
11227 | Why, sure you do n''t mean to say, Pip, that there was no black welvet co- ch?" |
11227 | Will you hold that noise, sir?" |
11227 | Will you only promise that, Miss Nell?" |
11227 | Will you try him, Miss Nell? |
11227 | Woodcot?" |
11227 | Would Gargery come here with you, and bring your indentures, do you think?" |
11227 | Would he believe now that I had betrayed him? |
11227 | Would n''t_ that_ be a treat?" |
11227 | Would she ever forget it? |
11227 | Would you?" |
11227 | You brought no one with you?" |
11227 | You could n''t expect that, could you, ma''am?" |
11227 | You hear?" |
11227 | You know what they are?" |
11227 | You may have heard of the counting house of Murdstone and Grinby, in the wine trade? |
11227 | You ordered that thick bread and butter for three, did you?" |
11227 | You ungrateful wretch, do you know that this is all along of her goodness to you?" |
11227 | You will come back quietly, I hope?" |
11227 | You''re in a hurry?" |
11227 | are you a perfect fool?" |
11227 | cried Mrs. Squeers;"let the things alone, ca n''t you?" |
11227 | cried Nicholas,"can this be some lingering creation of the visions that have scarcely left me? |
11227 | cried Squeers, poking his head out at the front door,"Where are you, Nickleby?" |
11227 | eh, my dear? |
11227 | he answered,"Money?" |
11227 | repeats Allan, looking at him with attention,--"Jo? |
11227 | retorted Mrs. Squeers sharply,"is n''t it brimstone morning?" |
11227 | retorted the old man, desperately,"that, notwithstanding all my caution, told you? |
11227 | said he;"young fellow, who let you in?" |
11227 | she asked, stamping her foot;"Tell me directly what you''ve been doing to wear me away with fret and fright and worrit?" |
11227 | sneezed, did you?" |
11227 | that''s all, is it?" |
11227 | then she asked, with greatest disdain,"What do you play, boy?" |
37284 | A bad son, I am afraid? |
37284 | Ai n''t there really, though? |
37284 | All of''em, ma''am? |
37284 | And did none of them ever die? |
37284 | And did none of them ever grow older? |
37284 | And did the money never melt away? |
37284 | And do you always lock the babies up when you go out? |
37284 | And do you live alone here with these babies, Charley? |
37284 | And do you often go out? |
37284 | And do you suppose_ he_ minds such things as crocuses? |
37284 | And have the children looked after themselves at all, sir? |
37284 | And how do you do, sir? |
37284 | And how do you live, Charley? 37284 And is that why you would put tables and chairs upon them, and have people walking over them with heavy boots?" |
37284 | And please, what''s hulks? |
37284 | And so, Phil,says George of the Shooting Gallery, after several turns in silence,"you were dreaming of the country last night?" |
37284 | And what are you thinking about me? |
37284 | And what,asked Mr. Gradgrind in a still lower voice,"did you read to your father, Jupe?" |
37284 | And when did mother die? 37284 And which is Oliver?" |
37284 | And yet,said Mr. Dombey,"you are two or three and thirty, I suppose?" |
37284 | And you''ll soon be grown up now? |
37284 | Are you there? |
37284 | Art in Heaven-- is the light a- comin'', sir? |
37284 | But can you, oh, can you really believe that this delicate boy has been the voluntary associate of the worst outcasts of society? |
37284 | But what makes you say this along of Rob, father? |
37284 | But you''re coming back to speak to me, when you have seen the gentleman away? |
37284 | But-- but do you think it did Edward good? |
37284 | Can you read? |
37284 | Come in,he said,"come in; what is the child afraid of?" |
37284 | Corporal punishment dispensed with? |
37284 | David,he said, making his lips thin, by pressing them together,"if I have an obstinate horse or dog to deal with, what do you think I do?" |
37284 | Do n''t know? |
37284 | Do you hear, Paul? |
37284 | Do you hear? |
37284 | Do you know who I am? |
37284 | Do you mean pretending to go there, and not going? |
37284 | Do you remember when he did this? |
37284 | Do you remember when in his inheritance of your nature, and in your pampering of his pride and passion, he did this, and disfigured me for life? 37284 Do you see this?" |
37284 | Do you think it did Edward harm, Clara? |
37284 | Driven to do it, were you? |
37284 | Eh? |
37284 | Excepting what? |
37284 | Father-- when''s he coming home? |
37284 | Formed his daughter on his own model? |
37284 | Given to government, Joe? |
37284 | Had n''t he better let it go? |
37284 | Have you anything to say? |
37284 | Have you as many as eight vacancies? |
37284 | Have you nothing to say to me? |
37284 | Have you-- did anybody-- has nothing been heard-- about me? |
37284 | He ai n''t got to be at all secretlike-- has he, Polly? |
37284 | He did n''t take any notice of you, I suppose? |
37284 | He is a nice- looking boy, is he not? |
37284 | His daughter? 37284 How can you ask such things, sir? |
37284 | How could you give me life, and take from me all the inappreciable things that raise it from the state of conscious death? 37284 How did you know it was the country?" |
37284 | How old are you, Phil? |
37284 | How old are you? |
37284 | I suppose,said Mr. Toodle, relishing his meal infinitely,"as our Biler is a- doin''now about as well as a boy_ can_ do, eh, Polly?" |
37284 | I surprise you, sir? |
37284 | I wonder who''s put into prison ships, and why they''re put there? |
37284 | If the bull was mad,said Paul,"how did he know that the boy had asked questions? |
37284 | In numbers, how many? |
37284 | Is every boy here? |
37284 | Is he, indeed? |
37284 | Is yours a strong constitution? |
37284 | It sounds unnatural, do n''t it? |
37284 | Jo, can you say what I say? |
37284 | Just fill that mug up with lukewarm water, William, will you? |
37284 | Master Briggs? |
37284 | Miss Dartle,said I,"if you can be so obdurate as not to feel for this afflicted mother----""Who feels for me?" |
37284 | Mrs. Joe,said I, as a last resort,"I should like to know-- if you would n''t much mind-- where the firing comes from?" |
37284 | My dear Steerforth, what is the matter? |
37284 | My dear love,said the elder lady, as she folded the weeping girl to her bosom,"do you think I would harm a hair of his head?" |
37284 | Not if it should happen to have been a tame bull, you little infidel? |
37284 | Not polite? |
37284 | Not so much as one short prayer? |
37284 | Nothing, I suppose? |
37284 | Nothing, sir? |
37284 | Now, Dombey,said Miss Blimber,"how have you got on with those books?" |
37284 | Now, Marigold, tell me what more do you want your adopted daughter to know? |
37284 | Now, do you want any more? |
37284 | Shall we make a man of him? |
37284 | Shall we make a man of him? |
37284 | So long as that? |
37284 | So you would carpet your room-- or your husband''s room, if you were a grown woman and had a husband-- with representations of flowers, would you? 37284 That is to say,"said Arthur, with a growing admiration of his quiet companion,"you are not fully discouraged even now?" |
37284 | The country,says Mr. George, plying his knife and fork;"why, I suppose you never clapped your eyes on the country, Phil?" |
37284 | The town''s enough for you, eh? |
37284 | Then what did you say''nothing''for, sir? |
37284 | Then why do n''t you learn? |
37284 | Then why do n''t you let me have some money of my own? |
37284 | Then why do n''t you shut him up? 37284 There''s no harm in that, I hope?" |
37284 | They? 37284 This fellow,"said Mr. Carker to Polly, giving him a gentle shake,"is your son, eh, ma''am?" |
37284 | This is most extraordinary,says the gentleman;"is it possible that you have been her only teacher?" |
37284 | This is two penn''orth of milk, is it, waiter? |
37284 | Tired? 37284 To keep''em safe, sir, do n''t you see?" |
37284 | To the wery top, sir? |
37284 | To whom, then? |
37284 | Trouble? |
37284 | Vice,sighed the surgeon, replacing the curtain,"takes up her abode in many temples; and who can say that a fair outside shall not enshrine her?" |
37284 | Was you, indeed, commander? |
37284 | What am I like, Mr. Young Jackson? |
37284 | What am I like, Mr. Young Jackson? |
37284 | What am I like, Young Jackson? |
37284 | What are you bothering about there, Smike? |
37284 | What are you crying for? |
37284 | What can this mean? |
37284 | What do I remember if not you? 37284 What do you mean by we?" |
37284 | What do you see in it? |
37284 | What does that mean? |
37284 | What is that? |
37284 | What is the matter? 37284 What it was like?" |
37284 | What marshes? |
37284 | What was it like? |
37284 | What were the swans doing on the grass? |
37284 | What would you ride, sir? 37284 What''s gone of your father and your mother, eh?" |
37284 | What''s that, sir? |
37284 | What''s that, sir? |
37284 | What''s that? |
37284 | What''s the report of this boy? |
37284 | What''s your name, boy? |
37284 | What? |
37284 | What_ have_ I done? |
37284 | Where are they? |
37284 | Where do you live? |
37284 | Who cried stop? |
37284 | Who said that? |
37284 | Who''s firing? |
37284 | Why do n''t you want to see him, then? |
37284 | Why not? |
37284 | Why that''s the proper time for me to talk, is n''t it? |
37284 | Why? |
37284 | Why? |
37284 | With anything? |
37284 | With chalk, sir? |
37284 | With some money, of course? |
37284 | Wondering again? |
37284 | Would you have doomed me, at any time, to the frost and blight that have hardened and spoiled me? 37284 Write?" |
37284 | You do n''t believe it, sir? |
37284 | You have a bad father, have you? |
37284 | You have a son, I believe? |
37284 | You know you''ve got no father or mother, and that you were brought up by the parish, do n''t you? |
37284 | You remember Me, Mr. Young Jackson? |
37284 | You remember me, Mr. Young Jackson? |
37284 | You remember me, Young Jackson? |
37284 | You see that fellow? 37284 You sleep in my room, do n''t you?" |
37284 | You''re the waxwork child, are you not? |
37284 | *****"Berry''s very fond of you, ai n''t she?" |
37284 | A wild ass or zebra would be too tame for you, would n''t he, eh, sir? |
37284 | An''t my place dirty? |
37284 | And that''s how I know how; do n''t you see, sir?" |
37284 | And what did it matter? |
37284 | And what do you mean by pulling up the crocuses and snowdrops, eh, sir?" |
37284 | And when I says to the Major,"Major, ca n''t you by_ any_ means give us a communication with the guard?" |
37284 | Are they obliged to sit mumchance, and to be ordered about till they are the laughingstock of young and old? |
37284 | Are you going to kill the wintner, sir?" |
37284 | Are you ready?" |
37284 | Are you rewarded,_ now_, for your years of trouble?" |
37284 | Bishop said, dubiously, did he really think so? |
37284 | But have you been very dutiful to me?" |
37284 | But what about the hundreds of thousands of minds that have been deformed forever by the incapable pettifoggers who have pretended to form them? |
37284 | But what is a man to do? |
37284 | But why was Miss Monflathers always vexed and irritated with the poor apprentice-- how did that come to pass? |
37284 | But will you promise to have me took there, sir, and laid along with him?" |
37284 | Charley,"said my guardian, turning his face away for a moment,"how do you live?" |
37284 | Come back harder? |
37284 | David said:"It is laborious, is it not?" |
37284 | Dickens makes the artist in Somebody''s Luggage say:"Who are you passing every day at your competitive excruciations? |
37284 | Did Louisa see these things of herself? |
37284 | Did it bite, hey? |
