53711He used to look like a handsome pirate, and if he had whispered honeyed words to me instead of to Laura-- who knows?"
53711If he had put Peggy onto her game, why not them onto theirs?
53711In the stock- market?
53711Is n''t it original and revolting, and yet, seeing that she is Lydia, comprehensible?
53711Is ostracism never to be invoked, as Mr. Marcy intimates, except in the case of the taking of life or where the pocket is affected?"
53711Is there anything within my power which you desired which I have n''t given you?"
53711It seems to me personally that she has gone too far, but that is a question of taste, and, provided her husband does n''t complain, why need we?"
53711It was Mrs. Barker who called attention to the circumstance by asking:"What are you incubating on, Fannie?"
53711Let me tell you-- you remember the slope of the fourteenth green?
53711Lydia had such highly evolved ideas of her own; and how would they accord with the connubial relation?
53711Marcy?"
53711Might she not even at the moment be premeditating an attempt to carry her away?
53711One plunge, and drink wormwood if I lost?
53711So why should I be stuffy and bite my own nose off?
53711Suppose I get my divorce and we marry here, what have we to live on?
53711That morning, in her looking- glass she had asked herself the question,"Why did I ever marry Herbert Maxwell?"
53711There was elasticity in her step as she said,"Wo n''t it be fun to be at Westfield again, Herbert?
53711Unless she is deeply smitten, wo n''t it bore her?"
53711Was he thinking how happy he might have been had fate so willed?
53711Was it to pique his curiosity, or was she feeling her way while she revelled for the moment in her declaration?
53711Was n''t it dear of him?"
53711Was n''t that the meanest streak of luck a man ever had?
53711Was this all?
53711We should neither of us be happy, for what would we have to live on?"
53711What better could he have said?
53711What better opportunity would he have than this for feeling his way?
53711What brought this on?"
53711What do you think of that?
53711What is to become of him?"
53711What more was there left to say?
53711What was he going to say?
53711What was he prepared to do for her sake?
53711What will become of all three of them?"
53711What would Lydia do?
53711What would he say?
53711What would her lover say?
53711When did it happen?"
53711Where should we live if we stayed at home?
53711Where was the necessary escape or remedy to be found?
53711Who told you?"
53711Why did you not think of her before you sacrificed us both?"
53711Why not two?"
53711Why should n''t I have her?
53711Why, indeed?
53711Will anything they build take the place of it in our affections?"
53711Would he be ready to venture all for her sake?
53711Would you love me any more than you do now?"
53711said Mrs. Reynolds with emphasis; then, after a pause, she asked:"Are you going to- morrow afternoon?"
53711to throw convention to the winds and glory in their passion?
17545And why not? 17545 And your reasons?"
17545Are there any young men?
17545But how?
17545But why do the family oppose it?
17545Could n''t he contrive to hold Shirley, Berke?
17545Do you wish to madden me?
17545Had you good sport?
17545Had you not done harm enough? 17545 Have n''t I told you, Nesbit?"
17545Have n''t you?
17545Have the new people come?
17545Have they any children?
17545Have you any for me?--for us both? 17545 Have you no mercy?--no pity for me?
17545Have you no pity?
17545I wonder what Nesbit Thorne will think of it all?
17545If she loved the man, why not marry him at once like a sensible woman? 17545 Is Cecil going to marry an objectionable widow?"
17545Is it loaded?
17545Late, for what?
17545May I keep it?
17545Mother,he questioned,"did it ever occur to you that Jim might grow fond of Pocahontas-- might want her for a wife, in fact?
17545Mrs.--who, my dear?
17545Must I understand, Mr. Thorne, that love for_ me_ suggested the thought of divorcing your wife?
17545Nesbit?
17545No!--do you?
17545Well?
17545Were you bound, or free, that night at Shirley?
17545What do you think of it?
17545What fellow? 17545 What he clumb arter?"
17545What is it?
17545What is it?
17545What made you do it?
17545What reports?
17545What the devil are they grumbling about?
17545What''s the meaning of this new move, Ethel?
17545When did this come? 17545 Where did this come from?"
17545Who cares for the storm?
17545Who is Jim Byrd?
17545Who the dickens was she?
17545Whose fault is that?
17545Why could n''t she?
17545Why do you insist on my repeating the same thing over and over, eternally? 17545 Why do you try me beyond my strength?
17545Why have you come?
17545Why not have written instead of coming?
17545Why not?
17545Why will it be restricted?
17545Why, Sawney, who told you to come?
17545Will that do?
17545Would you allow me to see the child whenever I wished?
17545You got my letter?
17545You would not wish to marry again?
17545Am I to be fettered, and bound, and trammeled by you forever?
17545Are n''t they beautiful?"
17545Are you determined on the divorce?"
17545Benevolent Missionary?
17545Brother Mason?"
17545But how?
17545But would he?
17545Ca n''t you see how completely every tie between us is severed?"
17545Can I have that vase on the piano?"
17545Could I endure to see you suffer?
17545Could it be an omen?
17545Could she be his wife in the sight of heaven?
17545Could_ I_, if it were_ you_?
17545Did he suffer?
17545Did she love him?
17545Did she suffer?
17545Dislocated?
17545Do n''t you understand?
17545Do you hear?"
17545Do you think the holly we get at home is as bright, Norma?"
17545Grace trampled on the protest:"Not name her Pocahontas?
17545Had_ he_ suffered as she was suffering?
17545Has not his heart been wrung again and again?
17545Has_ any thing_ been spared Nesbit?
17545Have I been too abrupt-- too thoughtless and inconsiderate?
17545Have I fallen so low?--am I guilty of this terrible sin?"
17545Have you no pity?
17545Have you no smile for me, sweetheart?--no word of welcome for the man whose heaven is your love?
17545Have you plenty of flowers, dear?
17545He had tried to make her love him-- had he succeeded?
17545He was worthy of any woman''s love; why could not she give him hers?
17545He would_ not_ speak; why should he speak?
17545How could she come between twin brothers, and turn their affection to hatred?
17545How could the breakage of a bit of china, no matter how precious, presage misfortune?
17545How should she decide?
17545How was Pocahontas to know?
17545I ca n''t let you go all that distance with only a maid, and how am I to turn out in such weather?"
17545I wonder whether the new people will let her stay at Shirley?"
17545Is it not so?"
17545Is n''t it provoking?"
17545Is n''t that enough?
17545Is n''t that silly?"
17545Is your mind quite made up?
17545It looks as though he were pretty hard hit, does n''t it?"
17545Just look at this branch; was there ever any thing more perfect?
17545Let him withdraw for a time, and what would follow?
17545Must he always have a stone for bread?
17545Must his garners always stand empty while other men''s overflowed with corn?
17545Nay; was it not rather his duty to be silent, or to throw such influence as he possessed into the other scale?
17545Nesbit had called her so-- was he right?
17545No love for the man whose heart is calling you to come?"
17545Norma was her guest, and, after all, what did it matter what Norma thought?
17545Put yourself in his place, Berkeley, and acknowledge that after so much tempest, he is entitled to_ some_ sunshine, How_ can_ Pocahontas stand it?
17545Sawney, why do n''t you help me?
17545See what had come of his self- denial?
17545Shall I open it?"
17545Should he aid to bring about a thing which he had been taught to regard with aversion?
17545Should this thing be?
17545Since when have you taken to emulating Mrs. Wilfer''s father, and''felling''your relatives to the earth?"
17545Suppose it should be the same person?
17545That sorrow might come to others in the search he scarcely heeded; was he to blame that fair promises would bud and lead him on, and fail of fruition?
17545The negroes paused and glanced around alertly, the man with the torch swinging it backward and forward, with a muttered"What''s dat?"
17545Though proof against argument, would she be proof against love?
17545Was Mrs. Thorne at home?
17545Was Norma right?
17545Was her hesitation senseless, doltish folly?
17545Was her love so weak that it should shrink from pain?
17545Was her nature deteriorating?
17545Was it a visitor?
17545Was it any business of his?
17545Was it not better that Thorne should suffer, that Pocahontas should suffer, as he himself was suffering, than that wrong should be done?
17545Was it not his duty as a man, as a Christian, to_ increase_ the prejudice, to build higher the barrier?
17545Was it pride?
17545Was she growing coarser, less pure?
17545Was she made different from others, that her life should be molded on other lines than_ their_ lives?
17545Was she never to be at rest?
17545Was she shutting out hope from a life, thus making a screen of a scruple to keep sunlight from a soul?
17545Was she yielding?
17545Was there any doubt of the result of the battle?
17545Was this ceaseless, gnawing agony that had usurped_ her_ life no stranger to_ his_?
17545Was this her work?
17545What about the child then?
17545What child?
17545What did it matter about herself?
17545What had happened?
17545What had she to fear, with habit and contrast both in her favor?
17545What he doin''in Nexican ef he kin get what he want here?
17545What held her back?
17545What if he did make a scene?
17545What is a scruple compared to the happiness of a life?
17545What is any woman to me, save you, my darling-- you only?
17545What is that woman?
17545What letter had been forwarded him from the seat of government in the spring of''65?
17545What more does she want?
17545What name should he say?
17545What she gwine kick him fur?
17545What should she do?
17545What was it Jim had said?
17545What was that tale of long ago that was coming strangely back to her?
17545What was that the young lady had said?
17545What was this thing he had thought of doing?
17545What would he think of her?
17545What''s the matter with them?"
17545What''s the matter, Norma?"
17545When is he coming to say good- by to us, Berke?"
17545Who could read the future?
17545Who is he?
17545Who the devil_ was_ this Jim Byrd?
17545Who was_ she_, to set up her feeble judgment against the world''s verdict-- to condemn and criticise society''s decision?
17545Who''s B.M., Miss Princess?"
17545Whose is it?"
17545Why are you so cruel to us both?
17545Why could not she go to him?
17545Why did n''t you inquire his name of some one, that might have helped you to place him?"
17545Why do you delight in tormenting me?"
17545Why do you stand there staring at me?
17545Why do you want a divorce?"
17545Why have you come?"
17545Why should people trouble the depths of life when the surface was so pleasant and satisfying?
17545Why should they care for the same things, cultivate similar tastes, have corresponding aspirations?
17545Will you be my wife?"
17545Will you come to me?
17545Would her old friend, whose standard was so high, despise her?
17545Would it follow now?
17545Would she be lowered in the eyes of those whose influence and opinions had, heretofore, molded her life?
17545Would she give way?
17545Would the glory of the past never shine upon the present?
17545You remember how Cecil Cumberland philandered after a certain lady of our acquaintance last winter, and how unremitting were his attentions?
17545_ Why_ could not she love him?
17545_ Why_ should she suffer, and make Thorne suffer?
17545is it really you?"
17545she cried, sharply,"do n''t you hear?
17545she exclaimed in vexation;"why do n''t you read your own letters?
17545she moaned,"my little one, do n''t you know your mother?
17545she questioned hoarsely--"that_ I_ came between you and caused this horrible thing?
17545you propose having the case come into court then?
11143''Me? 11143 A sleigh- ride, supper, and not come home until evening?"
11143A--_what_?
11143And did you fall in love with her right away?
11143And with whom, did you say?
11143Angry? 11143 Are n''t books down there-- in Boston-- kept where they belong, pray?"
11143Are you sick, Mary?
11143At--_home_?
11143But how did Father act?
11143But how long did it last?
11143But how_ could_ you?
11143But is n''t there any doctor anywhere that_ can_ stop it?
11143But you_ do_ dream, of the old days, sometimes, Madge, do n''t you?
11143But, what-- was your mother doing with that dress?
11143Cloth? 11143 Cry?
11143D- do?
11143Did you hurt yourself?
11143Did your mother say-- that?
11143Do you mean that you defy me as you did your Aunt Jane this morning?--that you refuse to go back to school?
11143Do you really mean that you would like to try again?
11143Dreaming, Madge?
11143Eh? 11143 Eh?
11143Eh? 11143 Eh?
11143Eh? 11143 Eh?
11143Eh? 11143 Everybody said you were going to, and I wrote Mother so; and--""You wrote that to your mother?"
11143From Mrs. Anderson to you?
11143Housekeepin''? 11143 How about reading?
11143How did_ you_ know that?
11143How do you do?
11143How is-- your mother, Mary?
11143It isn''t-- your mother-- you have n''t had bad news from her?
11143Like it? 11143 Mary, Mary, what in the world does this mean?"
11143Mary, did n''t you hear me?
11143Mary, what are you talking about?
11143My father did that?
11143Of when I was a child and played dolls before this very fireplace? 11143 Oh, I do-- a little; but, you see, I''m so afraid I''ll leave some of them out when I''m through,"I explained,"Well, what of it?
11143Oh, my darling, do n''t you see how dreadful it all is-- how unnatural it is for us to live-- this way? 11143 Right then, so you could see them?"
11143School?
11143She did_ what_?
11143The violinist, perhaps-- eh?
11143Then you did refuse?
11143Time? 11143 Was n''t he displeased and scandalized and shocked, and everything?"
11143Was she so awfully pretty, Father?
11143Well, why not? 11143 What in the world are you talking about?"
11143What is the meaning of this, Mary? 11143 What shall we do?"
11143When does he speak, Father?
11143Where in the world do you pick up these people?
11143Why do I always find you moping around, doing nothing?
11143Why do n''t you do something-- read, sew, knit?
11143Why not? 11143 Why, Marie, what in the world is this?"
11143Why, yes,I explained;"for if she_ did_ get married, she would n''t be divorced any longer, would she?"
11143Yes, but would you?
11143Yes, what did he say, indeed?
11143You did want to come back to me, darling, did n''t you?
11143You know what you want to do, do n''t you?
11143You mean to tell me that that creature has been coming here to see you, and I not know it?
11143You?
11143( Did n''t I tell you that Jerry always brought his rings and put them on?)
11143( Do n''t I know?
11143( How does the thing go?
11143( I do n''t think women ever want men to know such things, do you?
11143( Is n''t that a lovely sentence?
11143( Who would n''t be, with his eternal repetition of"Mollie,_ ca n''t_ you stop that baby''s crying?"
11143( Why do old folks always make us watch swans or read books or look into store windows or run and play all the time?
11143( Why do old folks always walk up and down the room like that when they''re thinking hard about something?
11143And I ca n''t help wondering-- is she getting to be like Aunt Jane?
11143And both of them threw up their hands and looked at each other in the did- you- ever- hear- such- a- dreadful- thing?
11143And did n''t you tell me last year, as soon as you got there, Miss Anderson objected to your clothing and bought new for you?
11143And for you-- you poor child!--what could be worse for you?
11143And how do you suppose_ I_ felt, to have him act like that before all those people-- to show so plainly that he was just longing to have me go?
11143And how was I ever going to ask him questions, if there were things I did n''t understand?
11143And if I''ve got to be Mary there and Mary here, too, when can I ever be_ Marie_?
11143And it was kind of queer, when you come to think of it-- about Mother, I mean, was n''t it?
11143And now where''s_ my_ love story coming in, I should like to know?
11143And she went on in the same odd little shaky voice:"But, tell me, why-- why did-- your father want you to be Marie and not Mary?"
11143And then he said:"Your mother-- perhaps she didn''t--_did_ she come?"
11143And there he took hold of both her hands and said:"Why must you wait, darling?
11143And was n''t I glad to get there?
11143And what can you do when you''re nothing but a daughter by order of the court?
11143And what did the night bring forth?
11143And what do they all amount to?)
11143And what do you think?
11143And when he asked,"Why, pray?"
11143And whenever are they going to have a chance to say anything really_ thrilling_ with Mother or Aunt Hattie right at my elbow?
11143And who do you think it was?
11143And who''d been making me do all the talking, I should like to know?
11143And, do you know?
11143And, pray, what am I to do?
11143And, what do you think?
11143And_ were_ his finger nails always so dirty?
11143Are n''t you going to be Mary just next week?
11143At the supper- table he said again,"How do you do, Mary?"
11143Attend to that?
11143But I could n''t say anything-- not anything, the way I wanted to; and all I could do was to stammer out:"Why, where''s Aunt Jane?"
11143But after Eunice came-- But, after all, what is the use of going over these last miserable years like this?
11143But did Aunt Jane let me go?
11143But did n''t I hate to show them to her?
11143But did n''t I have a good time then?
11143But he only put his lips together hard, and said, cold, like ice:"Are you then so eager to be rid of me?"
11143But just as I was thinking how for once I was going to have a real feast, and all I wanted to eat-- what do you think she told me?
11143But that evening-- Why_ could n''t_ he stop talking about the prizes he''d won, and the big racing car he''d just ordered for next summer?
11143But there is n''t any other school here that I can be sent to, and-- But what''s the use?
11143But there, what can you do?
11143But they could stand it long enough for Father to thunder from the library,"Jane, what in Heaven''s name is the meaning of all this?"
11143But what can you do when he asks you himself, right out plain?
11143But what can you do?
11143But what did we know of each other?--the real other?
11143But what did we really know of each other''s whims and prejudices, opinions and personal habits and tastes?
11143But, Father, you-- you_ are_ going to marry Cousin Grace, are n''t you?"
11143But, Mary, my dear, how are we going to-- to bring this about?"
11143But, do you know?
11143But, there, what''s the use?
11143Could he not see that no longer need he pine alone and unappreciated in the Andersonville Hotel?
11143Could n''t you wear the Mary dresses one little three months to please your father?"
11143Did I say"_ home_ with me"?
11143Did n''t you ever hear that-- that a child of unlikes was a cross- current and a contradiction?"
11143Did she want me to dress like a little frump of a country girl?
11143Did you ever feel like a green worm crawling on the ground?
11143Did you hear that?"
11143Did you know that, Mary?
11143Do n''t I just love Mother''s eyes when they sparkle and twinkle when we''re off together sometimes in the woods?)
11143Do n''t they suppose we understand perfectly well what it means-- that they''re going to say something they do n''t want us to hear?)
11143Do n''t you care for reading?"
11143Do old folks honestly think they are fooling us all the time, I wonder?
11143Do you like it?"
11143Do you suppose I waited to hear any more?
11143Do you suppose I''d have had that child see that play, after I realized what it was?
11143Do you think I shall permit this sort of thing to go on for a moment?"
11143Do you wonder that I say I am Mary already?
11143Do?
11143Dress?"
11143Easterbrook?"
11143For again he just stared for a minute, and then said:"Mary, what in the world does this mean?
11143For that matter, what had Father and Mother to do with dancing and motoring and painting society queens''portraits?
11143Funny, is n''t it?
11143Funny, is n''t it?
11143Funny, is n''t it?
11143Funny, is n''t it?
11143Funny, was n''t it?
11143Happy?
11143Hartshorn?"
11143Have I got to go to school to- morrow?
11143Have you anything to say?"
11143Have you been-- expelled?"
11143He says he''s lonesome and homesick, and that the house is like a tomb without Eunice and me, and when_ am_ I coming home?
11143Horses_ are_ slow, are n''t they?"
11143How about it?
11143How about this being a love story_ now_?
11143How do they expect us to get our education if they wo n''t answer our questions?
11143How do you do, Mary?"
11143How shall I ever remember not to run and skip and laugh loud or sing, or ask questions, or do_ anything_ that Marie wants to do?"
11143How_ do_ they tell when to begin and end chapters?
11143I cried,"could n''t you come courting her again-- calls and flowers and candy, and all the rest?
11143I do n''t think she_ does_ like her, for every time she saw her, she''d say:"Oh,_ you_?
11143I guess I just stood and stared and did n''t say anything; for after a minute he cried:"Well-- well-- well?
11143I suppose Marie plays the piano every day now, does n''t she?
11143I wonder why?
11143I wondered if maybe_ they_ bragged, too, and I asked her; but she only began to cry again, and moan,"What have I done, what have I done?"
11143I''ll put my question this way: Do n''t you ever knit or read or sew?"
11143If Mother''s going to want me to be Mary, and Father''s going to want me to be Marie, how am I going to know what anybody wants, ever?
11143Instead he said:"What are you doing there, Mary?"
11143Instead, very quietly and gently he said:"Are you so unhappy, then, Mary-- here?"
11143Is n''t she the ducky dear to want me to have all the good times possible now so as to make up for the six months I''ve got to be with Father?
11143Is that all?"
11143Is this our little Mary Marie?"
11143It would be a funny world, would n''t it, if we all knew what each other was thinking all the time?
11143Lovely reading that would make, would n''t it?
11143My, but was n''t I excited?
11143My, did n''t I dress up?
11143Now was n''t that funny?
11143Now, do you wonder that I have been rubbing my eyes and wondering if I was really I, and if this was Andersonville?
11143Now, was n''t it funny he should have remembered that there was a violinist?
11143Now, was n''t that funny?
11143Now, was n''t that funny?
11143Now, what do you think of that?
11143Now, what do you think of that?
11143Now, what do you think of that?
11143Now, will you come with me to the other side of the room, or must I be so rude as to go and leave you?"
11143Oh, Father, could n''t you?
11143Oh, and I have n''t told yet about the letter, have I?
11143Oh, will the time ever come when I''ll be old enough to take my proper place in the world?
11143Or was it only feigned-- not consciously, but unconsciously?
11143Recite lessons to my father?
11143Rush after him and tell him he''d forgotten to hear my lessons?
11143That made me think right away: what if Father or Mother, or both of them, married again?
11143The first beginning was a nice smile, and a"Glad to see ye home, Miss,"from John, as he touched his hat, and the next was a"How do you do, Mary?"
11143Then he looked at his watch again with a won''t- that- train- ever- come?
11143Then he turned to me and asked with a kind of of- course- I- don''t- care air:"Did you say you saw quite a little of-- this Harlow fellow?"
11143Then she gasped:"Mary, what do you mean by such talk to me?
11143Then she said:"Do?
11143Then the slam of the screen door downstairs sent me to the window, a sickening terror within me, Was he_ going_--without seeing me, his future bride?
11143Then, after a minute:"But why, pray, ca n''t you read here?
11143Want me?--Mother Anderson?''
11143Was it a sin, pray, for me to stand up for my mother and refuse to associate with people who would n''t associate with_ me_ on account of_ her_?
11143Was n''t I ever to be allowed to have my own opinions and exercise my own judgment?
11143Was n''t he teaching me himself the last of it, too?
11143Was n''t it funny?"
11143Well, Jane, what is it?"
11143Well, we went shopping on Saturday, but-- did we get the pink silk?
11143Well, what did you do Christmas?
11143Well, what was I saying?
11143What am I saying?
11143What are you doing, Mary?"
11143What are you in the habit of doing with your young friends-- your Carries and Charlies, and all the rest?"
11143What could I have been thinking of?
11143What could I say?
11143What do you suppose has happened now?
11143What does she take me for-- a child?)
11143What had Jerry to do with learned treatises on stars, or with the humdrum, everyday life of a stupid small town?
11143What if you do?"
11143What was I talking about?
11143What woman would n''t, that was gay an''lively an''young, an''had been so lonesome like your ma had?
11143What''s the use of imagining perfectly crazy, impossible things like that?
11143What, indeed?
11143What?
11143What?
11143What?"
11143What?"
11143What?"
11143What?"
11143What_ do_ they want me to do, and which do they want me to be?
11143What_ do_ you suppose I am learning about_ now_?
11143What_ is_ going to happen next?
11143When_ will_ I be allowed to take my proper place in life?
11143Who cared?
11143Who knows?
11143Who would n''t?
11143Why are you crying?"
11143Why ca n''t you give me my answer now, and make me the happiest man in all the world?"
11143Why ca n''t you go back?
11143Why could n''t I?
11143Why should n''t they?"
11143Why, Madge, are you crazy?"
11143Why, how am I going to know at all who to be-- now?
11143Why-- er-- what she always does; read, sew, study--""Study?"
11143Wo n''t it be funny when I do n''t have to do things on account of Father?
11143Wo n''t it be lovely?
11143Would n''t Aunt Jane have four fits?
11143Would n''t it be fun?
11143Would n''t it be perfectly lovely and wonderful if Father and Mother should fall in love with each other all over again, and get married?
11143Would n''t that be some love story?
11143Would n''t_ you_ be interested in the man that was going to be your new father?
11143Would you believe it?
11143You are here, are n''t you?
11143You will remember, Mary?"
11143You would, would n''t you?"
11143Your pa?
11143[ Illustration:"WHY MUST YOU WAIT, DARLING?"]
11143_ Father_?
11143_ Is_ she getting to be like Aunt Jane?
11143_ Then_ what''s he going to do, I should like to know?
11143was n''t I glad to see them?
59277And Madam Ford lives in the adjoining suite, does she not? 59277 And now, as the room is very warm, wo n''t you come and let me get you an ice, or a glass of punch?
59277And what is the result of such searching introspection?
59277And where would we get our meals? 59277 And why should I not be?"
59277And you, dearest?
59277Are n''t you on the stage now?
59277At two o''clock? 59277 But could you bear it, Dorrie?"
59277But where is the money for a teacher coming from?
59277But would it be quite honest not to tell Clifford? 59277 But you will let him come, as he begs in his letter-- you will see him just once, to-- to congratulate and wish him well; will you not?"
59277But, Helen--a scarlet streak shot vividly across his forehead--"could you let me have a little money?
59277But-- the Duc de Mouvel-- is there such a man? 59277 Could I fail to cling to what is my very life?
59277Could you stop for a little talk with me?
59277Did she know who he was?
59277Did she know_ who_ he was?
59277Do I mean that I divorced him?
59277Do n''t you think it would be more brave if, instead of yielding to such gloomy thoughts, you made an effort to get well?
59277Do you feel in the mood? 59277 Do you know where he got that money which he frittered away upon you and his selfish, ignoble, unlawful pleasures?
59277Do you mean that you would not,_ under any circumstances_, seek a divorce from me?
59277Do you regret those experiences, Doctor Wing?
59277Do you think I can-- now, after all the best of my life has been wasted?
59277Do you think it was your real self who was nursing all the evil you have portrayed?
59277Do you think it will be forever?
59277Do you want a divorce?
59277Does Mrs. Everleigh remember the lady who sat with her in church the third Sunday in May, and to whom she gave her card, asking her to come again?
59277Dorothy, are you_ sure_?
59277Everything is well with you all, I trust? 59277 Has no woman been here for sittings?"
59277Have you a picture of Dorothy?
59277Have you never heard from him since he went away?
59277Have you no fear that this confession may cloud your life even before your hopes are realized?
59277Helen-- may I look through the suite?
59277How can I bear it? 59277 How do you feel about it, dearie?"
59277How do you know your fate is settled, as you express it?
59277How do you know?
59277How do you think she would enjoy having her father''s history served up in the newspapers here? 59277 How have you shown your love for her?
59277How is it a puzzle?
59277How much?
59277How so?
59277How would you like to come with me, dear? 59277 I do n''t quite-- know; I----""How did you find me?"
59277I hope, Mrs. Everleigh, I have not seemed intrusive in asking to come to you?
59277I suppose you have n''t much love left for me?
59277I suppose you know that I am going away, Dorothy? 59277 I think it is awful-- what he is doing; but do n''t you think that we-- you and I-- can be happy again, by and by, just by ourselves?"
59277I think you are a stranger here?
59277I warn you not to push me too far,he retorted hotly, adding:"Perhaps you really want me to get out-- do you?"
59277I would be glad to see her again; will you ask her if she will spare me a few moments?
59277I-- think you-- will, or----"What do you mean to imply?
59277Is that the way you have baked and brewed, washed dishes and made beds the past year?
59277Is this a hospital?
59277Jealous-- of_ her_? 59277 John Hungerford, where is your manhood?"
59277John? 59277 Just what did you mean by saying that things can not go on any longer as they are going with us now?"
59277Mamma, I think she is_ almost_ as nice as Grace, and is n''t it beautiful to have found some one to love so quickly?
59277Mamma, have you any engagement for to- morrow?
59277Mamma, what_ will_ you say?
59277Mamma,she began, with some hesitation,"I have been thinking, and do you not think, that we ought to tell Clifford about-- about our past?"
59277May I see Dorothy''s room? 59277 May we come to- morrow?"
59277Mercy, dear, wo n''t it be flying in the face of Providence for you to race wildly off to the other side of the continent?
59277Mrs. Harding, this house is the Grenoble, is it not?
59277My dear, you have uncovered all this in connection with yourself?
59277My real self?
59277Oh, why have you come?
59277Oh,she faltered, when he ceased speaking,"why did you come?"
59277Pardon me; but are you sensitive regarding my occupation-- my career?
59277Pray tell me what is your objection to living with me-- at least for a portion of each year?
59277She is a widow, then?
59277So this is your début before society, Miss Ford?
59277Suppose-- that I should seek a divorce for myself?
59277Then he was here after I returned?
59277Then the evil- thinking is the unreal self, and every one possesses a dual nature? 59277 Then you mean me to understand that, of your own free will, you prefer to remain with your mother altogether?"
59277Then, John, why not make an honest effort for it?
59277Then, Monsieur Jacques, you know nothing about the excursion to the château of le Duc de Mouvel?
59277Then, if one has wasted one''s time, and learned nothing good here, one can begin all over again-- one will have another chance?
59277Then, will you come again some time? 59277 There, mamma, now will you believe what I said to you before we left home?"
59277To those who have done us desperate wrong?
59277To whom?
59277Well, dear?
59277Well, what did he say?
59277Well?
59277What could it matter to you whether I had or not?
59277What do you mean, Helen?
59277What do you wish?
59277What for? 59277 What have you to offer her?
59277What is it?
59277What is the subject, if you will not deem it an impertinent question?
59277What shall I do?
59277When will Doctor Wing go to see him again?
59277Where am I?
59277Where are you going to live?
59277Where are you going?
59277Where are you staying?
59277Where did you get it?
59277Where will you go? 59277 Where your respect for your wife, or your love for your child?
59277Where-- is mamma?
59277Who is she?
59277Who is this friend?
59277Whom did she marry?
59277Whom do you think Clifford met to- day at the Gotham Club? 59277 Why are you going away-- why will you not live here with mamma?"
59277Why did you want them to send for me? 59277 Why not?"
59277Why should you be glad of it?
59277Would he dare intrude himself upon her life again, after all these years?
59277Would he hunt her down?
59277Would it be possible for me to see her?
59277You are jealous of Marie Duncan?
59277You did n''t think I would lose sight of you, did you, after once getting a glimpse of you? 59277 You do not mean to tell me that you are John Hungerford, the artist, who has been exhibiting at the Excelsior Art Club?"
59277You sent a man-- Mr. Williams-- to me last night?
59277You shame me, dear; but I know you are right,she said humbly, but adding, with a shiver of repugnance:"Do you want_ me_ to tell him, Dorrie?
59277You will not come here again?
59277Your gown is vastly becoming; but are n''t you a trifle pale to- night? 59277 _ Why_ did you come?"
59277Am I to understand that you do not intend to contest proceedings for a divorce, Helen?"
59277And hate?
59277And is n''t it beautiful to read between the lines and realize all that it means?"
59277And what made this thorn in the flesh so intolerable?
59277And what was this thorn, anyway?
59277And what would become of him upon reaching San Francisco?
59277And-- we should accept this money,"she went on thoughtfully;"do n''t you think so?
59277Are n''t you assuming a good deal of authority for yourself, Helen?
59277Are you in haste?"
59277Belle, what should I have done without you?
59277But how was it that you ran away from us so unceremoniously five years ago?"
59277But would he keep his word?
59277Can you do as you please?
59277Can you-- can you?"
59277Could it be possible that she had fallen to the level of this vulgar woman?
59277Could that homeless, penniless, pitiful tramp be the once light- hearted, care- free John Hungerford?
59277Did it belong to the actress, or was John guilty of the extravagance of hiring it to take the woman about?
59277Did she need to face it?
59277Did she, herself, wish to see him again?
59277Do n''t you love me at all?"
59277Do you know a single soul in New York?"
59277Do you not even possess_ self_-respect?"
59277Does the picture appall you?"
59277Duplicate that autumnal scene for me, will you?
59277Everleigh?"
59277Everleigh?"
59277Frontispiece:"WHO IS SHE?"
59277Had he destroyed it, fearing it might some time betray him?
59277Had her repentance come too late?
59277Had his gentle, loyal, patient wife reached the limit of her endurance?
59277Had it been lost by some one returning from a ball, or the opera, and simply been found by him?
59277Had she fallen so low as that?
59277Had the woman come there, to John''s room, for sittings?
59277Had the worm turned at last?
59277Has he a rare collection?"
59277Has n''t he been at the office to- day?"
59277Have you any ambition for honest, painstaking effort-- for hard work, John, to attempt this under a first- class artist?"
59277Have you read about the shocking accident of last evening?
59277Have you seen the morning papers?
59277He concluded by inquiring, in a matter- of- fact tone:"How would you like to come with me, Belle, and make that long- promised visit to Lena?"
59277He greeted her most cordially, but searched her face curiously; then gravely inquired:"And where is Monsieur Hungerford, madame?
59277Helen arose to make room for her, saying inquiringly:"I think perhaps I ought to go now?"
59277How can it be conquered?"
59277How could he bear to live out his life bereft of all his fond hopes?
59277How could he ever have sunk so low?
59277How do you imagine she will regard this last humiliation to which you are subjecting her and her mother?"
59277How had it come into her husband''s possession?
59277How was he ever to get to California with any degree of comfort upon so small a sum?
59277How will you live?"
59277How would it all end?
59277How would they receive such a revelation?
59277I hope not ill?
59277I know you are a good manager; John told me that, and----""Where is he?"
59277I shall, probably, never return to this country, Dorrie; but you will occasionally come to me, will you not?
59277I thought it would be very pleasant for you and me to bear our departing friends company on their long journey-- oh, Dorrie, what do you think of it?"
59277I trust Madam Young and the young ladies are well?"
59277If so, where did he get the money to pay for it, when he was not supplying a dollar toward his own support or that of his family?
59277Introduce me, will you, Jerome?"
59277Is n''t it wonderful that I should have found him so soon after what you told me this afternoon?"
59277Is she not beautiful?
59277Is there anything I can do for your comfort, now that I am here?"
59277It was she who sent me the fruit?"
59277John, what does it mean?"
59277Madame would like to see some of the work monsieur has been doing of late?"
59277Mamma, what makes him do such horrid things?
59277May I come to see you to- day?
59277May I see it, John?"
59277Maybe, not having heard from me for so long, you have believed me dead?"
59277Micawber?"
59277Mr. Alexander, can you spare the time to join us?"
59277Must she tell Dorothy, to spoil her present happiness and cloud her approaching nuptials?
59277Oblivion, or doom?"
59277Or had it some more significant connection with the late hours and carousal of the previous night and of many other nights?
59277Or was she some one whom he met often, and had painted from memory?
59277Or would it be wiser to return the glove to its place of concealment, say nothing, and bide her time for further developments?
59277Or, something even worse, perhaps-- the coward''s refuge-- suicide?
59277Pray tell me how you have accomplished it all?
59277Pray, what do you intend to do for a living in the future, John?"
59277Presently he broke forth, almost sharply:"Where is that husband of yours?"
59277She never could account for it afterward, but before she was really aware of what she was saying she burst forth:"What_ is_ love?
59277She studied the crisp note for a moment, then naïvely returned:"Why, Uncle Horace, that is n''t_ all_ you will have to spend in New York, is it?
59277Should she wake John, show him what she had found, and demand an explanation from him?
59277So the old crank has given me the grand bounce, has he?"
59277So you dropped the old name?"
59277Then, a sharp ring of pain in his tones:"Helen, am I never to see Dorothy?"
59277These, summed up, meant hate, and hate meant-- what?
59277This is my bag, hanging here on the bed; will you open it for me?"
59277To do good to whom?
59277To whom did the dainty thing belong?
59277True, she had given him money, but how had she given it-- what had been the motive?
59277Was John going to die, after all?
59277Was he really weary of the ties that bound him?
59277Was he tired of her and of Dorothy?
59277Was his presence so repulsive to her that she could not endure to have him come near her?
59277What can I do for you?"
59277What could Marie Duncan want of her?
59277What did it matter to her what she had or had not done, or what her relations with John now were?
59277What have you ever done for her, or to gain her confidence and respect, that could induce her to trust her future with you?
59277What if the story of John Hungerford''s disgraceful career should ruin Dorothy''s life at this supreme moment?
59277What is the secret of their joy?"
59277What is there beyond?
59277What is--_hate_?"
59277What mysterious influence could have guided her steps thither that morning, in direct answer, as it seemed, to Marie''s desire to see her?
59277What of the man sitting alone there in Helen''s library during the interview between Dorothy and her mother as just related?
59277What possible hope could the future hold for him-- sick, spiritless, and with not a friend in the world to really care what became of him?
59277What should she do about it?
59277What was it?
59277What was the motive that prompted them both to wish another human being out of the world?
59277What was there about her that so summarily broke down Helen''s habitual self- control?
59277What will Grace think?
59277What will everybody think?"
59277What will he do?
59277What will people think of us if he does?"
59277When and where had the portrait been painted?
59277When?"
59277Where did they come from?
59277Where is she?"
59277Where will he go now?
59277Whither had it disappeared?
59277Who are they, Jerome?
59277Who was she-- this blue- eyed, brown- haired siren in glittering black?
59277Whose car was it?
59277Why ask questions or seek information from her?
59277Why ca n''t he be nice, like other gentlemen?
59277Why did n''t you?"
59277Why did you do this?"
59277Why should she lower herself talking with this coarse creature?
59277Why should_ I_ give you money?"
59277Why, then, did not her heart respond, her pulses quicken, to his impassioned appeal?
59277Why, then, is it necessary to disclose that for which we are in no way responsible?"
59277Why, then, resurrect all that dreadful story?"
59277Will you not kindly give him another trial?"
59277Will-- he marry_ that woman_?"
59277Williams?"
59277Would he be driven to that?
59277Would he ever return?
59277Would he-- oh, would he?
59277Would it be just or kind to deny him audience, withhold congratulations upon his success, and a Godspeed upon his future career?
59277Would she have courage sufficient to sustain her so long-- to carry this intolerable thorn that rankled in her heart continually?
59277Would she really care if he never returned?
59277Would she-- did she mean that she would leave him?
59277Your mother has told you-- ahem!--of the-- the change I-- we are contemplating?"
59277_ I?_"cried Helen, scarce able to restrain a shriek of aversion at the suggestion.
59277_ Is_ there no hope?"
59277_ What_ have I to live for?"
59277_ What_ have you ever done for her that entitles you to make the shameless boast?"
59277cried Helen sharply;"is he as ill as that?"
59277do you think I could, even now?
59277how do you know?"
59277or is it that tone of gray?
59277when?"
59277will you come back to me?
56455''Over the Hills to the Poorhouse,''with a photograph of it,''Will Your Little Girl Have to Scrub?'' 56455 A change?"
56455About three blocks, is n''t it?
56455Am I with him?
56455And do you care, too?
56455And he did n''t leave his name?
56455And he does, too?
56455And how it worried me?
56455And she is happy,he repeated seriously, as if much depended on the question,"or not?"
56455And she is happy?
56455And we do n''t get a lithograph in the front window?
56455And what I came for is-- well, will you-- would you just as soon help me get up some more of these?
56455And you did n''t want trouble, lots of it?
56455And you will never be afraid?
56455And you, you yellow pup,he roared, seizing him by the collar,"what were you doing while they was pounding me up?
56455Any witnesses?
56455Anything wrong, Jim?
56455Are you a widow?
56455Are you with O''Mara?
56455At least not on my account?
56455But is n''t there some way around that?
56455But must we consider everything, everything from the standpoint of salvation? 56455 But since you are already separated from----""Yes, that makes it pleasanter all around, does n''t it?"
56455But what about your husband?
56455But what are we going to do about it?
56455But what if I ca n''t conceal the most important thing in my whole life? 56455 But what of it?
56455But what''s the use? 56455 But why not?
56455By the way, has he sent you a receipt for the money?
56455D''you want the doctor to come right away?
56455Dear heart,she said,"do n''t have all those awful thoughts about me-- don''t you suppose I know what you''re thinking?
56455Did Carl say that, honest?
56455Did I indicate to you,said he,"that you are my_ private_ secretary now?"
56455Did he say anything about coming back?
56455Did you wish to speak to her personally?
56455Do n''t they ever annul a marriage?
56455Do n''t you think you might have consulted me before asking Jim to supper?
56455Do n''t you understand,she said,"what I mean?
56455Do you honestly believe in a future life?
56455Do you mean to say you have n''t gone yet?
56455Do you mind asking him to come up, nurse?
56455Do you need help? 56455 Do?"
56455Doctor,she asked slowly,"will he ever be well?"
56455Does that go?
56455Drunk?
56455Father,she said, not trying to argue any longer, but just to make him see,"Oh, do n''t you understand?
56455Frank, you remember my telling you about that money I owed to the man I-- spoke about?
56455Friends?
56455Georgia, are you a devout Catholic? 56455 Georgia,"a little louder,"are you awake?"
56455Georgia,he asked, chilled through with fright,"do you often have that sort of thing put in your way?"
56455Georgia,he asked,"have you ever looked much at the stars?"
56455Georgia,he began,"do you feel strong enough for a serious talk?
56455He does?
56455He knows me,she said,"do n''t you think so?"
56455He''s training all the time?
56455Hear about the game?
56455Hello,came the voice,"is this Miss Gerson?"
56455How did you suppose it would come out?
56455How do you do?
56455How do you do?
56455How is he?
56455How long does your lease run, Miss Frankland?
56455How long will it be? 56455 How much work do you get?"
56455How much?
56455How old are you?
56455How''s things looking to you?
56455I mean, when he grows up will he be as strong-- and-- and bright as other men?
56455I suggest therefore that you appoint young Stevens-- you have met him?
56455If I really have done a duty to society why does society punish me for it?
56455If you do?
56455Into what?
56455Is Jim there?
56455Is that not something like saying you would not commit murder, but would compromise on stealing?
56455Is there any particular reason,said she,"why we are no longer friends?"
56455Is what?
56455Jim,said Georgia slowly and deliberately, for she felt that the hour had come,"why not make this our last quarrel?"
56455Jim?--well, for the love of goodness godness Agnes-- d''you want to come up?
56455Let me have a two- dollar bill till then?
56455Let''s see,asked Georgia slowly,"who''s on that board?"
56455Make up into a nice ring, would n''t it?
56455Marry you?
56455Max''s?
56455May I walk along?
56455Miss Frankland, are you a fast writer?
56455More than there ever used to be, eh?
56455Mrs. Connor? 56455 Much better-- won''t you be seated?"
56455Near the express station?
56455Not fair? 56455 O''Mara_ your_ cousin?"
56455Of course,she answered,"we know that everything is bigger than people used to think, but still could n''t God have made it all, just the same?"
56455Oh, Jim,she cried,"why did you say that?"
56455Oh, Mason,said she,"why was n''t grandpa a Swede?"
56455Oh, she''s got good sense,said Al,"but you know the riddle,''Why''s a woman like a ship?
56455Oh, so you''ve been rubbering, eh?
56455One?
56455Passing yourself off as unmarried, eh? 56455 Protestants-- weren''t they?"
56455Remember the time the little woman come here after you?
56455Rousty?
56455Say, Al, loan me a quarter?
56455Say, Al,he blurted out almost fiercely one evening,"your folks is Irish, ai n''t they?"
56455Shall I ask Father Hervey to come?
56455Shall we take in a show?
56455Six thirty to- morrow evening?
56455So you''re running Carl, eh?
56455So''m I, but I got to talking----"Why do n''t you go now?
56455Sure, of course, what did you expect''em to be, kikes?
56455Tell me one thing, Georgia,he said,"you_ are happy_?"
56455That young man''s back,she said,"shall I show him in?"
56455The Singer system specifically, do you know that?
56455Then at the end of the week, Saturday?
56455There is another man----"Another man?
56455This wasting of ourselves must go on until he dies?
56455Twenty- six and ready to quit? 56455 Was n''t that right?"
56455Were you at a deathbed last night, you two?
56455Were you out with her last night?
56455What about him? 56455 What are you afraid of-- future punishment?"
56455What arrangements do you want to make?
56455What charge will I put agin''em?
56455What did he look like?
56455What do you mean by that?
56455What do you mean by well?
56455What do you mean by''quit''?
56455What do you think a fellow ought to do if a man''s after his sister?
56455What does that mean?
56455What does the ceremony matter? 56455 What is it, then?"
56455What is the meaning of that?
56455What makes you think so?
56455What then?
56455What you been doing?
56455What you want?
56455What''d you say?
56455What''ll it be, gents?
56455What''s the charge?
56455What''s the idea now-- wait?
56455What''s the matter with you, anyway?
56455What-- eh, oh, what?
56455What?
56455When we love each other-- when we''ve told each other we love each other?
56455Where are you going?
56455Where does he live?
56455Where were you bound for?
56455Who win? 56455 Who''s the old pouter pigeon?"
56455Why ca n''t you?
56455Why not,suggested L. Frankland,"go in with me as partner?"
56455Why such splendor?
56455Why, doctor,exclaimed Mrs. Talbot, terrorized,"is it anything serious?"
56455Why, what is the matter?
56455Why?
56455Why?
56455Why?
56455Why?
56455Will you be at the club for lunch to- day?
56455Will you come up?
56455Will you excuse me?
56455Will you take these please, Miss Connor? 56455 Wo n''t you come in?"
56455Would you always be governed by the teaching of the Church in this matter-- always-- never decide for yourself?
56455Yes indeed, is n''t it? 56455 Yes, he is tiny, is n''t he?"
56455Yes,he tightened his hold on her wrist,"will you?"
56455Yes?
56455Yes?
56455You do n''t care?
56455You have read them all?
56455You know that he has stopped drinking?
56455You mean not at all?
56455You mean not see each other any more at all?
56455You mean there is no way out of it-- but death?--your husband''s death?
56455You mean work with you on them?
56455You understand now?
56455You''ll do what you can for the organization in your precinct?
56455You''re not going to be sick?
56455Young man,the priest answered not unkindly,"will you listen for a moment to an old man?
56455Yours, Jim?
56455A little fly work-- hey?
56455After all, was it not more peaceful to do what people thought you ought to, than to fight them constantly for your own way?
56455Ai n''t I right?"
56455Al pressed the door- opener, but before climbing the stairs Jim shouted another question through the tube:"Was n''t that Georgia who spoke first?"
56455An oldish bookkeeper asked,"Been away, have n''t you?"
56455An''jou ever hear me kicking?"
56455And Bush, Darroch, those other people-- might they not also have walked in Gethsemane?
56455And Jim----""Yes?"
56455Are you hurted?"
56455Are you?"
56455As for Mrs. Plaisted-- if there was one-- who was she against Georgia?
56455But after all, could she or anyone else have peace except from God?
56455But she could not resist the Parthian shot-- what Celt can!--and she turned to throw back over her shoulder,"Who''s your girl- friend, Georgia?"
56455But what''s that got to do with it?"
56455But, she reflected, what of it?
56455Could it be that the big fellow was going to take water?
56455D''you think you were at a ball game, hey?"
56455Did Georgia think, she inquired on another occasion, that the priests were n''t up to teaching Al, or what?
56455Did Moxey think he did n''t know anything?
56455Did the diamond mean another proposition-- or was it maybe a proposal this time?
56455Did the image of the other man ever trouble her mind?
56455Did this image occur to her often?
56455Do n''t you see?
56455Do you mind?"
56455Do you remember that I once told you, when it came to the big things I did n''t believe I would dare disobey?
56455Do you understand the Singer cross- filing reference system?"
56455Does it mean all of life to you here and hereafter?"
56455Does n''t he mind?"
56455Does one estimate a put- by baby''s slipper, or a lock of someone''s hair, or a wedding ring by its intrinsic worth?
56455For had n''t he begun a great many times and had he ever been able to finish?
56455Had n''t he already tried every other damn thing on the market?
56455Had not the highest and holiest lives been led in the entire absence of it, by its ruthless extirpation?
56455Had she not herself also given Him vinegar upon a sponge?
56455He implored her,"Oh, do n''t, Georgia, do n''t; please do n''t; wo n''t you please not?"
56455He was going to see her again in the office to- morrow, was n''t he?
56455Hell, ai n''t they?"
56455Hm- m- m-- how''d you do it?"
56455How could anyone tell how long this would play?"
56455How do you do?"
56455How many drinks did a gentleman take a day?
56455How much beer equaled how much spirits?
56455I kept askin''myself''what''s the good of killing him now?
56455Is he still in love with you?"
56455It gives one a mighty respectable feeling to have the receiving teller smile and say,"What-- you-- again?"
56455It said, not"Ought I?"
56455It was holy wedlock, was n''t it?
56455It''s almost two thousand years since we''ve seen each other, is n''t it?
56455Jim tipped his head back about five degrees and inquired,"Is the big fellow coming''round to- night?"
56455Last Sunday evening at Bismarck Garden Al and I found the dipper-- it was just as plain-- is that what you mean?
56455Let''s see, Miss, Miss ah-- what is your name?"
56455Married sister, roommate or landlady from whom she sublet?
56455Marry me and let me shield and shelter you from all this----""This what?"
56455May I come to see you now and then?"
56455Miles?
56455Missis Connor?"
56455Now, wait-- what would to- day''s verdict be?
56455Oh, well, what was the use of his trying, if she was going to act so?
56455Pretty clever, eh, with a doctor right in the family?
56455Shall I or shall I not accept the offer?"
56455She rattled off her letters, then added a note for Stevens,"Dinner to- night?"
56455Six months?"
56455So why stay mad with her?
56455So will you take me to a hotel?"
56455Stevens?"
56455Stevens?"
56455Stevens?"
56455That''ll be all right, wo n''t it?"
56455Then he would fake a letter and Georgia would help him at the end by inquiring,"Special delivery, I suppose, sir?"
56455There had been bad popes, had there not?
56455Therefore is it not well to be with the conqueror and share in the cut?
56455Think I''m blind?"
56455This being indisputable, might not one increase one''s prescribed allowance of whiskey if one diluted it conscientiously?
56455This is confidential, y''understand?"
56455To go on living together when they neither like nor love each other----""How do you know?
56455To sit her on a bench and make her listen while you mourn for the universe?"
56455Two or three, or even more on special occasions?
56455Was getting wet or cold a special occasion?
56455Was it fair of her to pretend-- if she was pretending?
56455Was it not decenter to die than to live on, a reeking beast, a stenchful sewer for whiskey?
56455Was it strange that where the waves beat hardest, some of the sand was washed away?
56455Was n''t a business woman a big fool, she often asked herself, to get in this fix for a man she did n''t love?
56455Was n''t it sure in the nature of things, that at that very moment some other man was with her?
56455Was n''t liquor mixed with seltzer less harmful to the lining of the stomach than the same amount taken straight?
56455Was she actually making jokes about his misery-- to say nothing of hers-- if indeed she felt any?
56455Was the poor fellow long after I left?"
56455Was this what the papers meant by their humorous accounts of"divorce mills"?
56455What could they know about the deep springs of life-- about how a man felt when in trouble?
56455What devil''s power was there in wives, anyway, that enabled them to hurt by merely not speaking?
56455What did he suppose she had been doing?
56455What do you say, Georgia?"
56455What if I am not as good an actor as you?
56455What if I ca n''t pretend?
56455What if I ca n''t smirk and smile about it?
56455What then?"
56455What was a"drink"anyway-- two fingers, three, or a whiskey- glassful?
56455What was one against five?
56455What''ll you have, boys?"
56455What''s that got to do with it?"
56455What''s the difference whether he''s under the sod or above it, so far as I''m concerned?"
56455What''s the use of talking any more about me?
56455What''s the use?
56455What''s your idea?"
56455Whatever his wife, Georgia, might urge against him in regard to his conviviality, was n''t he, after all, one of the most faithful husbands he knew?
56455Where have you been?"
56455Where''s Georgia?"
56455Who are you taking?"
56455Who was Talbot?
56455Who was the man he was surest of making sign an application blank when he set out after him?
56455Why did you stop?"
56455Why not?"
56455Why should n''t they continue to be friends?
56455Will you help or hinder it?"
56455Will you marry me?"
56455Would he pass or stop?
56455Would it never get warm?
56455Would n''t it look queer if he went out to call on her to- night without warning?
56455Would not everyone he cared for be the better for his disappearance?
56455XII MOXEY''S SISTER"You''ll stand up with me, wo n''t you?"
56455You never supposed I would take a man''s bread and-- fool him, did you, Mason?"
56455Yours, and mine, and my husband''s, and the rest of the family''s, and the rest of yours, too, I suppose, did n''t you?"
56455and was there any other gift as sweet?
56455what''s the answer?"
20443Admitting that you''ve both made a mistake, is there any possibility of retracing your steps?--or must you go on paying the penalty?
20443Ah, but what_ is_ the spirit? 20443 Ah, what kind of love is that?"
20443And did n''t I break a bottle in it once?
20443And do I understand you to be telling me now that the ghosts_ have_ come back?
20443And do you think you''ll be able to bear our being separated for two or three days, when you_ know_ I adore you? 20443 And is n''t this the bag that got the awful bang that time we raised a row about it when we landed in New York?
20443And is-- still?
20443And must she bear all the responsibility of that?
20443And that was--?
20443And what about-- me?
20443And what do other people say-- since you seem to want me to ask the question?
20443And what was it of the others?
20443And what would be the right way?
20443And why on earth should you want to go and see her-- a young girl like you?
20443And would it be fair to ask why you say that?--that you understand?
20443And you really had stopped-- caring anything about me?
20443And you told him--?
20443And you?
20443And-- and I presume, sir, that you held this theory when you married?
20443Are n''t you going to say good- by?
20443Are n''t you well?
20443Are there any happy marriages?--permanently happy, that is?
20443Are you?
20443As a promise? 20443 But are n''t there laws?"
20443But if I insist?
20443But suppose I do? 20443 But why should you ask me to, when I''m only stating facts?
20443But why should you have drifted about, when you knew that at a sign from you--?
20443But you''d think about him, would n''t you?
20443But you_ are_ married, sir?
20443But, good Lord, Edith, you do n''t think I''ve been better than any one else, do you?
20443But_ do n''t_ you care?
20443But_ will_ you?
20443Could you take it, if I did?
20443Could you-- if I did?
20443Did I refer to a lady?
20443Did he ask you anything?
20443Did n''t you--_ever_?
20443Do You Mean that You''ll See Me-- Later-- when We''re in London?
20443Do n''t you think that we often make news good or bad by our way of taking it?
20443Do n''t you-- love him?
20443Do n''t you?
20443Do n''t you_ care_?
20443Do you know how long I''ve known him?
20443Do you know the people in that house?
20443Do you mean that you''ll see me-- later-- when we''re in London?]
20443Do you mean that, Edith?
20443Do you mean, why did I marry him in particular, or why did I marry any one?
20443Do you mean--?
20443Do you need sympathy?
20443Do you see now?
20443Do you think I am-- strong enough?
20443Do_ you_ say that?
20443Does n''t your figure of speech carry you too far? 20443 Does she realize what she''s done to me?"
20443Does that mean no or yes?
20443Does that mean that if certain things were to do again-- you would n''t do them?
20443Edith, for God''s sake, what do you mean? 20443 Even if you are, do n''t you see, dear friend, that you ca n''t marry me?"
20443Everything you need to know-- what for?
20443For God''s sake, why?
20443From the first of-- what?
20443Good, is n''t it? 20443 Has n''t a man more responsibilities than one?"
20443Has she-- said anything about me at all?
20443Have you known him long?
20443Have you?
20443How do you know?
20443How old are you?
20443How old_ are_ you?
20443How were the children when you left?
20443I do n''t have to explain that, do I?
20443I do n''t have to tell you, do I? 20443 I wonder if you have the least idea of what you''re saying?"
20443If I were to go in, I think it would--"Yes? 20443 If you left him now and came back to me-- what?"
20443In what way? 20443 Indeed?
20443Is anything privileged between you and me?
20443Is it because he''s been so generous?
20443Is it the spirit? 20443 Is it this?--that, assuming what you do assume, it would be easier for you if I-- I went away?"
20443Is n''t everything?
20443Is n''t that rather evident?
20443Is that really the way you feel about me?
20443Is there any reason why I_ should_ know-- now that the fact is there?
20443Let me go on, will you, Edith? 20443 Life is n''t all beer and skittles to me, do n''t you know-- and you''d be the kind of thing I have n''t got, do n''t you know?"
20443May I ask, sir, on what you base your-- your opinion?
20443Me? 20443 More in what way?"
20443No? 20443 Oh, Chip, is it worth while?
20443Oh, Chip, what are we to do?
20443Oh, I do n''t mean any Good Samaritan business, do n''t you know? 20443 Oh, they''re there?"
20443Oh, what is it?
20443Oh, what''s the good of talking of it now?
20443One of your wedding presents, was n''t it?
20443Papa, are you our real papa, or is papa Lacon?
20443Papa, shall we have another papa after this one?
20443Papa, why do n''t you live with us any more?
20443Quieted-- how?
20443Rather comic the whole thing would be, would n''t it?
20443Safeguard against what, sir?
20443Should you be doing it light- heartedly?
20443So it was-- everything?
20443Something else-- how?
20443Takes it for granted-- how?
20443That is, you believe I had another motive?
20443Then if her heart''s broken, what''s broken it?
20443Then what did you do it for?
20443Then what do you ask for? 20443 Then why--?"
20443Then you do n''t know, sir?
20443Then you think I ought to go away?
20443Well, how are you getting on?
20443Well, then, are n''t there ways in which it would be hard for me?
20443Well, then? 20443 Well, what do_ you_ call it?"
20443Well, why not? 20443 Well, would n''t it?"
20443Well,_ where_ is it?
20443Well?
20443What about your people?
20443What are you doing here?
20443What are you going to say?
20443What do you mean? 20443 What does this mean, Maggie?"
20443What else could I do?... 20443 What is it?"
20443What makes you remember?
20443What makes you think that Chip and I-- I mean,she corrected, with some confusion,"Mr. Walker and I-- want to do it at all?"
20443What promise?
20443What sort of different way?
20443What sort of reasons?
20443What''s the matter with her?
20443What? 20443 What?"
20443What?
20443What_ is_ he like?
20443Where have you got a pain, papa?
20443Why did he tell you?
20443Why did n''t I?
20443Why did you want to tell me?
20443Why?
20443Why?
20443Why?
20443Why?
20443Will I what?
20443Wo n''t you tell me what it was? 20443 Would it?"
20443Would n''t it be-- what we_ feel_?
20443Would n''t it rather be that if a man can save only one of two women, he nevertheless does what he can?
20443Would there be any point to that?
20443Would you_ try_ to understand-- if I were to tell you?
20443Yes? 20443 You knew he was married, did n''t you?"
20443You know a lot about Switzerland, do n''t you?
20443You see?
20443You wo n''t forget your promise?
20443You wo n''t forget your promise?
20443You''d tell me, would n''t you, if you were worried?
20443You''ll see-- what?
20443You''re not going away?
20443You, too, have n''t you?
20443Your position? 20443 _ Am_ I hysterical, Chip?"
20443_ What_?
20443_ You_ ca n''t help it, can you?
20443Ça, c''est merveilleux, n''est- ce pas, monsieur?
20443A pause gave emphasis to his question when he said, almost repeating her tone:"And you?"
20443A silver box stove in, or something of that sort?"
20443After all, would anything be gained by counteracting it?
20443Am I one of the two women to be saved?"
20443And are you alone, too?"
20443And he was only three, was n''t he?"
20443And she loves you?
20443And what, then?"
20443And yet--""Yes?"
20443And you''re-- alone?"
20443Are n''t a divorced Englishwoman and a divorced American in very much the same position?"
20443Are n''t we?"
20443As he went down the steps he found himself saying:"Will this crucifixion never end?
20443As she said nothing for the minute, he insisted,"Would you, now?"
20443Better a thousand times to go down with them, is n''t it?
20443But do n''t you think we''d better go in?
20443But how could she help loving you?
20443But how many men had not done wrong in the same way?
20443But what is it?
20443But you are?"
20443But, oh, Chip, if I left him now and went back to you--""Yes, darling?
20443But,"he went on, unexpectedly,"I wonder what a man like you can see in it-- to remain here so long?"
20443By the way, wo n''t it soon be time for Tom to be going to boarding- school?"
20443By way of pressing the question, he added, with a glance at Chip through the moonlight:"Are n''t you?"
20443Ca n''t you see that my heart''s breaking, too?"
20443Can I, now?"
20443Chip forced the next question with some difficulty:"Does she-- does she want to-- to see me?"
20443Chip spoke without turning his eyes from the mountains:"What do you mean by-- the penalty?"
20443Deep down in her heart something-- was it something feminine?
20443Did n''t you have this--?"
20443Do you mean that you''ll see me-- later-- when we''re in London?"
20443Do you mind telling me?"
20443Do you remember the night--?"
20443Do you see now?"
20443Do you see what I mean?"
20443Does n''t it confuse you?"
20443Does n''t that answer your question?"
20443Edith came to her relief:"Is n''t that something for_ you_ to explain, Chip?"
20443Eleven years, did you say?
20443For God''s sake, Miss Bland, what is it?
20443Had she seen him?
20443Have I deserved it?
20443He allowed some minutes to pass before saying gently:"You''re happy?"
20443He had already begun:"Voulez vous bien me dire--?"
20443He smiled, however, and, taking a casual tone so as not to strike too strong a note at first, he said, as he sat down,"Have you?"
20443He spoke:"You do n''t want to smoke a cigar in the little park?
20443He winced, but risked another question:"What makes you think that Tom''s discovered it to be unusual?"
20443His tongue and lips were parched as he forced out the words:"Then it''s good news-- or you would n''t want to break it?"
20443How can I desert her?
20443How do_ I_ know?
20443How had it come about?
20443How much do you know about this?"
20443How_ can_ Miss Chesley?"
20443How_ do_ you get at it?
20443I ca n''t ignore that; now, can I?
20443I did n''t know--""That I was on it, too?"
20443I know-- You wo n''t mind my speaking right out, will you?"
20443I should hardly have supposed that you could know any one-- whom I_ used_ to know?"
20443I suppose it_ is_ from Shakespeare?"
20443I wonder why?
20443I''m asking you if there would n''t be ways in which it would be hard for you?"
20443I''m--""Waiting?"
20443I''ve never denied that, have I?
20443If from any one, why not from this man?
20443If you married a divorced woman, would n''t your whole position in England be-- be different?"
20443Illustration: See p. 29"Ca n''t you see that my heart''s breaking, too?"
20443In response she merely said, pensively:"_ En sommes nous lá?_""_ En sommes nous_--where?"
20443In response she merely said, pensively:"_ En sommes nous lá?_""_ En sommes nous_--where?"
20443Is it about--?"
20443Is n''t that it, sir?"
20443Is n''t that it?
20443Is n''t that it?"
20443Is n''t that the spirit?"
20443Is n''t that the spirit_ now_, do n''t you think?"
20443Is one ever prepared?
20443Is one of the children hurt?
20443Is one of them dead?"
20443Is she ill?
20443Is that what they''d think in England?"
20443It''s pretty hard, is n''t it?"
20443It_ is_ a fact, is n''t it?
20443Leaning across the table, with amusement on his lips and in his eyes, he had replied:"Do n''t you remember the warning?
20443Oh, she is n''t dead?"
20443Or am I wrong?"
20443Perhaps she meant at first to make use of this privilege, but when a minute or more had gone by she said:"What for?"
20443See here, Walker, why do n''t you come up and spend the weekend with me in New Hampshire?
20443Shall we take it?--or let it go?"
20443She did n''t answer at once, so that Chip intervened:"Has n''t some one said-- Shakespeare or some one-- that the letter killeth?
20443She might blame herself for being drawn into Gertie''s company, and yet what other course could she have taken?
20443She only said:"Indeed?
20443She turned the query against himself:"Why did_ you_?"
20443She waited a few seconds before saying,"You know about me, do n''t you?"
20443She would certainly be driven sooner or later into some such port-- then why not into this?
20443She''s a sweet woman, is n''t she?"
20443Since he had to say something, he uttered the first words that came to him:"Was there any harm in it-- our meeting?
20443Suddenly he risked a question:"Do they-- understand?"
20443Suppose we all sit down?"
20443That''s the main thing, is n''t it?
20443Was Edith in Berne?
20443Was it a principle, or was it nothing but a lucky accident?
20443Was it her imagination that saw him look cautiously round before leaving the protection of the doorway?
20443Was it her imagination that watched while he crossed the pavement hurriedly, to spring into the automobile before he could be observed?
20443Was it only the needless alarm of a foolish woman that thought him anxious to reach the shelter of the motor lest he should be approached or accosted?
20443Was it something in a cast of character or a tenet of a creed, or was it what any one could emulate?
20443Was it through her that he had been recognized?
20443Was she being kept out of his way?
20443Was she keeping out of his way?
20443Was she suffering?
20443Was the crime so terrible that I must be tortured by degrees like this?"
20443Was there?"
20443We ca n''t turn our back upon them, can we?
20443We can take a stroll in the Park?"
20443We three?"
20443What are you made of?"
20443What difference does this make to your love for her?
20443What do we gain by my staying?
20443What good would it do?
20443What good- by is possible between you and me?
20443What had he done, what had she done, to make this hideous topsyturvydom a fact?
20443What have you to tell me, Miss Bland?"
20443What is it?
20443What is there any better than blazes for me to go to?
20443What was his secret?
20443What would you do about her, Chip, if we decided to-- to take the chance that''s opened up--?"
20443What''s her name, Chip?"
20443What''s the good?
20443What''s the use?
20443What?"
20443What?"
20443When he sees me here--""Well, what then?"
20443Where are you going?"
20443Which are the two who must be unhappy in any case?"
20443Who in thunder, he asked, impatiently, ever denied that?
20443Who was this man, and what the devil was he driving at?
20443Why are we here?
20443Why did you marry him?"
20443Why not?
20443Why should she say so?
20443Why should_ I_?"
20443Why, on entering the drawing- room, had n''t she gone straight to her desk, according to her intention, if it was n''t that fate intervened?
20443Why?"
20443Wo n''t you sit down, and let me ring for tea?"
20443Would n''t it_ distraire_ Madame to dine to- night, let us say, at Ciro''s, or the Hotel de Paris, and look in at the Casino afterward?
20443Would you believe that the thing I felt to be right for me was the right thing for us both?"
20443Would you trust to me?
20443You do n''t suppose I can go on like this?
20443You understand that, do n''t you?
20443You''re here; and, since you are, I''d rather--""Yes?"
20443You''re not crazy, are you?"
22455About him-- and my mother? 22455 Adam, is n''t it a dream?
22455Am I full of strange oaths?
22455And I suppose you would not take the things I say, so meekly, would you?
22455And he said that he was glad?
22455And how do you think I mean goodness and badness? 22455 And let Mrs. Crosby think I made you do this?
22455And now what does one do?
22455And now, what in the world are we going to do with them?
22455And of course your mother dislikes me too, does n''t she?
22455And she''s alive still?
22455And then? 22455 And then?"
22455And then?
22455And you are not combative? 22455 And you would not mind going away to- morrow, and never seeing Brook Johnstone again?"
22455And your daughter knows nothing, of course? 22455 And your wife?"
22455Anything wrong, boy?
22455Anything wrong?
22455Are there any exceptions to truth?
22455Are you in earnest?
22455Are you in need of kindness just now? 22455 Are you sure of that?"
22455Are you surprised?
22455Because I said that I did n''t like you?
22455Before his first marriage?
22455Besides, do you know? 22455 Besides,"continued the young man, philosophically,"I think we ought to be glad, do n''t you?"
22455Besides,''cads''does n''t include women, does it? 22455 Between one thing and another-- what were you going to say?"
22455Brook,she began more softly,"do you remember that evening up at the Acropolis-- at sunset?
22455Brook? 22455 But do n''t you think that I''m right?
22455But we can keep very much to ourselves all the time they are here, ca n''t we? 22455 But why should I go out if I do n''t want to?"
22455But you and I, for instance, mother-- we have no secrets from each other, have we? 22455 Ca n''t we walk together a little bit?
22455Ca n''t you do anything? 22455 Ca n''t you see?
22455Could n''t you say them, instead?
22455Could you put a big stone behind the wheel?
22455Did you punch his head because it was n''t funny?
22455Did you? 22455 Dishonourable?"
22455Do I look as though I would seek the bubble reputation at the cannon''s mouth?
22455Do all Italians do it that way?
22455Do n''t what? 22455 Do n''t you admit that a man may ever make a mistake?"
22455Do n''t you see?
22455Do n''t you think I had better go to Naples?
22455Do you expect your people to- morrow?
22455Do you know? 22455 Do you know?
22455Do you know? 22455 Do you know?"
22455Do you mean to say it''s cooler here than indoors?
22455Do you mean to say that I could marry her?
22455Do you mean to say that you can really love a woman who hates you?
22455Do you mean to say that you left it on board?
22455Do you mean to tell me that I have n''t a perfect right to leave my money as I please? 22455 Do you really think me capable of anything so silly?"
22455Do you think I should wish to?
22455Do you think it''s a matter of exchange--''I will love you if you''ll love me''? 22455 Do you think it''s like a bargain?"
22455Do you think it''s something to be thankful for? 22455 Do you want me?"
22455Do you want to talk to me?
22455Do you wish to be left alone with him, my dear?
22455Do you?
22455Does n''t it seem horrible to you? 22455 Generally with that party?"
22455Glad?
22455Had you?
22455Had your father ever a brother-- who died?
22455Has anything happened?
22455Have you any particular reason for saying horridly disagreeable things?
22455He? 22455 His yacht?"
22455How can a woman love a man and hate him at the same time?
22455How can you say that he loves her? 22455 How grammatical we are, are n''t we?"
22455How?
22455I beg your pardon,he said,"but are you a daughter of Captain Bowring who was killed some years ago in Africa?"
22455I can refuse to marry her, ca n''t I?
22455I say, Governor,he added after a pause,"do you think that''s quite-- well, quite fair and square, you know?"
22455I say, mother,said Brook,"has anybody been telling you stories about me lately?"
22455I say,he began,"was I rude?
22455I think it''s very pleasant, do n''t you? 22455 I was only thinking-- it''s rather an odd coincidence-- do you mind telling me something?"
22455I? 22455 I?
22455If I do n''t care, why should you?
22455If you meant what you said, why should n''t you look at me?
22455Indeed?
22455Intimate enemies? 22455 Is he coming here in his''old tub''?"
22455Is it your first visit to Amalfi?
22455Is n''t it? 22455 Is there a way out at that end?"
22455Is there anything I could do to make you change your mind? 22455 Is this sort of thing to go on for ever, Miss Bowring?"
22455It is a beautiful place, is n''t it?
22455It is an odd question, is n''t it, coming from me?
22455It is n''t exactly an easy thing to say, is it? 22455 Johnstone, with an E on the end of it?"
22455Lately? 22455 May I introduce him?
22455Me? 22455 Mind?
22455Mother dear, what is it?
22455Mother dear-- is anything the matter? 22455 Nineteen and six are twenty- five, are n''t they?"
22455No right?
22455No-- but how about the porters?
22455Nothing? 22455 Now?
22455Of course she has accepted you?
22455Oh-- do you think so? 22455 Oh-- you heard that, did you?"
22455One ca n''t see a person like you, most of the day, for ten days or a fortnight, without-- well, you know, admiring you most tremendously-- can one? 22455 Really?
22455Shall we turn back?
22455She knew you at once, of course?
22455Should you like to take a turn?
22455Something disgraceful?
22455Something dreadful about us?
22455Still, it is odd that she should have known your father well, and should have married a man of the same name-- with the E-- isn''t it?
22455Stop that noise, will you?
22455Surprised? 22455 That''s rather a hard thing to say to a man, is n''t it?"
22455The law does n''t make any difference, does it? 22455 Then she married again-- your first wife?"
22455Then there is something?
22455Then why do you defend the man?
22455Then you are a social person?
22455Then you think I''m not squeamish? 22455 Then, Miss Bowring-- you do n''t think that your mother really dislikes me, after all?"
22455Then, of the two, you prefer the cad?
22455There are only the two? 22455 This-- this very odd footing we are on, you and I-- are we never going to get past it?"
22455We were talking about it yesterday, do you remember?
22455Well, what''s the foundation of the story? 22455 Well-- they are amusing, are n''t they?
22455Well-- what is it, then?
22455Well-- what should one say? 22455 Well?"
22455Well?
22455What are you laughing at?
22455What consequences can there be?
22455What difference can it make to you, whether I like you or not?
22455What difference can it make, what his name is?
22455What difference does it make?
22455What do you mean, that you would n''t say now?
22455What do you mean?
22455What have you heard?
22455What in the world is the matter? 22455 What is absurd, my dear?"
22455What is it, my darling?
22455What is the best way?
22455What is the matter with you, child?
22455What is the name of the yacht?
22455What is your line-- if you have any?
22455What kind?
22455What on earth do you mean?
22455What sort of thing?
22455What were you going to say?
22455What would she say to this?
22455What''s that?
22455What''s the matter?
22455What''s the use of talking about it? 22455 What?
22455What?
22455What?
22455What?
22455When he kisses and tells?
22455Who has dared to tell you?
22455Why do jealous women sometimes kill their husbands? 22455 Why do n''t you have luncheon in your room, mother?"
22455Why do you say''Good God''--like that?
22455Why not with me?
22455Why should they? 22455 Why should you say that most women are cowards?"
22455Why should you?
22455Why what?
22455Why? 22455 Why?"
22455Wish it? 22455 Wo n''t you come out for a bit?"
22455Wo n''t you say good- bye to me?
22455Would n''t look at you? 22455 Would you, if you could?"
22455Yes-- but--"But what?
22455Yes-- what? 22455 Yes?"
22455Yes?
22455Yes?
22455Yes?
22455You are not really going, are you?
22455You began by saying something very nice to me, and then I told you that you were like the mule, did n''t I? 22455 You ca n''t be in earnest?"
22455You could n''t tell me all about it, could you, mother dear?
22455You did not mean a word of what you said that afternoon? 22455 You did not mean it?"
22455You do n''t like to be alone?
22455You do n''t mean to say that you know it too?
22455You do n''t mind my saying so to you, Brook?
22455You get tired of people easily, do n''t you?
22455You marry Adam Johnstone''s son?
22455You mean that they learn to drink and gamble, and all that?
22455You wo n''t come back with us?
22455You''re not angry, are you, because I suggested it?
22455You''re not in love with the girl, are you?
22455You''ve got into another scrape, have you? 22455 You?
22455A sort of stray half- sister of mine, the girl would be-- I mean-- what would be the relationship, Governor, since we are talking about it?"
22455After all is n''t it natural?
22455Am I to return it?"
22455And if I had-- should I have given it up to be divorced because you gave jewels to an actress?
22455And why should n''t men be brought up to be good, just as women are?"
22455And you ca n''t say''we are that,''can you?
22455And you could n''t exactly say that you only went in for bliss by the month, could you?
22455And you''ve only just begun-- how in the world do you dare to think of marrying?
22455And your son?"
22455And, after all, I do n''t see why it should be so very dreadful, do you?
22455Are there still those little paper- mills in the valley on the way to Ravello?
22455Are you suffering, dearest?
22455Besides, as things are now, what''s the use?"
22455Besides, why in the world should he fall in love with me?
22455Bowring?"
22455Bowring?"
22455Brewing is not a profession, so I suppose it must be a trade, is n''t it?"
22455Brook, where''s my fan?"
22455But I''ve a right to know what Mrs. Crosby has done since, have n''t I?
22455But now that you''ve explained it to me, I suppose I may tell my mother, may n''t I?
22455But of course I would much rather be alone than with bores, do n''t you know?
22455But there is something else-- do you know what has happened?
22455By the bye, what are we quarrelling about?"
22455By the way, it is n''t the beer that you object to?
22455Ca n''t you feel how I love you?"
22455Ca n''t you see?"
22455Ca n''t you stop him?"
22455Ca n''t you understand?
22455Can I?"
22455Could n''t we talk seriously about something or other?
22455Could n''t we?"
22455Did I ever tell you that my mother was married twice?
22455Did you think I married you for your money, Adam?
22455Do n''t I bore you dreadfully sometimes?"
22455Do n''t love you?
22455Do n''t you dislike me more than ever?"
22455Do n''t you think so yourself?"
22455Do n''t you think so?"
22455Do n''t you think so?"
22455Do n''t you?
22455Do you disapprove?
22455Do you expect any woman, who has seen another treated in that way, to forget?
22455Do you know Florence?"
22455Do you know?
22455Do you know?
22455Do you mind telling me why you are so tremendously anxious to have me come out this very minute?"
22455Do you mind?"
22455Do you remember the Arab and his slave?
22455Do you remember what you said?"
22455Do you see?
22455Do you think I generally do just the contrary of what I''m asked to do?"
22455Do you think I''m bound to tell her that-- who Mrs. Bowring is?
22455Do you think it''s anything like not fair to her, just to leave her in ignorance of it?
22455Do you understand what that means?
22455Do you want to know his name?
22455Do you wonder that I disliked you from the first?"
22455Do you?"
22455Do you?"
22455For instance-- you do n''t mind?
22455Has anything happened?"
22455Have you asked her to marry you?"
22455Have you met?"
22455Have you told him?"
22455He''s not falling in love with you, is he, dear?
22455How am I to explain it to you?
22455How could such a man be earnest?
22455How do you think I understand those two words?"
22455How in the world could Clare ever know all the truth about such people?
22455How the deuce do you know the difference, at your age?"
22455How was I to know that you meant to stay here until I heard you say so to her?
22455I do n''t know what to call them, do you?
22455I do n''t suppose that is good, is it?
22455I do n''t suppose that you-- you and Mrs. Bowring-- would care to go for a walk, would you?"
22455I fancy that''s the history of the case, is n''t it?"
22455I like you very much, and I do n''t see why one should just meet and then go off, and let that be the end-- do you?"
22455I say, Miss Bowring, do n''t you think we could strike some sort of friendly agreement-- to be friends without''liking,''somehow?
22455I sha''n''t copy the signatures--""Then why do you need them at all?"
22455I suppose you learned them on board of the yacht, did n''t you?"
22455I thought you meant just to call, do n''t you know?"
22455I''d go to work and change it--""Dye your hair?"
22455I''ve not denied them, have I?
22455If there were a law against flirting, it would send the men to prison just like the women, would n''t it?"
22455If you have any good reason, you know, you wo n''t stop liking me just because I do n''t like you, will you?"
22455Is it safe?
22455Is n''t there a quiet place somewhere?"
22455Is that it?"
22455Is that the reason why you are going away so suddenly?"
22455Is that what you want to say?"
22455It is always the main question, is n''t it?
22455It is n''t a mere flirtation?
22455It seems to me that is simple enough, is n''t it?"
22455It seems to me that we''ve been chaffing for half an hour, have n''t we?"
22455It seems to me that you are taking a great deal for granted, are n''t you?"
22455It was soon done, but why should I blame you for that?
22455It would have sounded so-- so uncalled for, do n''t you know?
22455It would n''t be at all surprising, you know, would it?
22455It''s not a very pretty thing to say, is it?"
22455It''s not like other things, is it?"
22455It''s pleasant to sit still afterwards, and feel that you''ve done it all, do n''t you know?
22455It''s supposed to be just as well to know about things, is n''t it?"
22455Johnstone?"
22455Johnstone?"
22455Let us go out, shall we?"
22455Libel means saying things against people, does n''t it?
22455No-- why should I?"
22455Not one word?"
22455One ca n''t be always on one''s hind legs, doing Hamlet, can one?
22455Only-- I could n''t help noticing-- I hope you''ll forgive me, if you think I''m rude, wo n''t you?
22455Or with me?
22455Sha''n''t we go for the little walk that was interrupted when my people came the other day?"
22455Shall we meet after luncheon?"
22455She likes you tremendously, you know, and you could go about to galleries together and read Ruskin and Browning-- do you know the Statue and the Bust?
22455Still-- if I knew that Clare loved him-- if I could believe that he could love her faithfully-- what could I do?
22455Stupid of me not to try and bring it into the conversation sooner, was n''t it?
22455That is n''t a lie, is it?"
22455That they were married and separated?"
22455That wo n''t be pleasant, will it?"
22455That would be a great deal, would n''t it?
22455That''s the reason why I wo n''t turn back just yet--""But how in the world can you enjoy walking and talking with a man you do n''t like?"
22455The best picture in the world does not look the same in every light, does it?"
22455Then she talked of eternal bliss together, and that sort of rot, did n''t she?
22455There''s an awfully good view from there, is n''t there?"
22455There''s no reason why a young man as he was should n''t have been desperately in love with a beautiful young girl, is there?"
22455They are generally awful bores, do n''t you know?
22455This way?"
22455Tremendously cheeky of me to talk in this way, is n''t it?"
22455Very well-- I''ve got a hat on, have n''t I?
22455Wants to divorce Crosby and marry you, does she?
22455Was he?"
22455Was it my fault?
22455Was it this way?"
22455Well, I could n''t exactly tell Mrs. Bowring that, could I?
22455Well?
22455Were you going for a walk?"
22455What am I to do?
22455What can he do to me?
22455What chance could such a mere girl possibly have?
22455What could she know of Lady Fan?
22455What do you suppose could have happened, if you had gone in and written your letters and left us quietly here?
22455What happened?
22455What has it to do with you?
22455What has that to do with it?"
22455What is it?"
22455What relation could she be?
22455What should you call them?"
22455What the dickens are we to do?"
22455What the dickens did you go with those people for, when you found out that she was coming?
22455What was I to do?
22455What was it?
22455What would it all matter, if I did n''t love you?
22455What would my mother say if she knew?
22455What''s the matter with you, Governor?
22455What''s the use of repeating it?
22455What''s the use of talking?
22455Where can we go?
22455Who shall say wherein pathos lies?
22455Why did n''t you tell me?"
22455Why did not all women look straight before them as she did?
22455Why do you ask?"
22455Why not?
22455Why not?
22455Why now?"
22455Why should I be?"
22455Why should I?
22455Why should I?"
22455Why should any two people who love each other have secrets?
22455Why should n''t I have known it?"
22455Why should n''t I know?"
22455Why should n''t I take the practical method of stopping this woman as soon as possible?
22455Why should n''t we go away at once?"
22455Why should she be ruined?
22455Why should you suffer, if you are going to suffer in meeting him?
22455Why should you?
22455Why?"
22455Wo n''t you come too?"
22455Wo n''t you excuse me, and take this for an introduction?
22455Wo n''t you, please?
22455Would n''t it?"
22455You do believe me, do n''t you?"
22455You do n''t care to marry her, do you, boy?"
22455You do n''t like to be in the opposition?"
22455You do n''t seem quite-- what shall I say?
22455You have n''t told her about the Bowrings, have you?"
22455You knew the sort of woman she was, I suppose?
22455You thought I did n''t care?
22455You wo n''t talk, boy, will you?
22455You wo n''t, will you?"
22455You''re in love with the girl, are you?
22455You?"
22455the_ carabinieri_ will come, and you will go to_ galera_--do you understand that?"
56310A burden? 56310 A divorced woman?
56310A red devil?
56310A whole six months?
56310Abashed? 56310 Against what?"
56310And before that?
56310And from that point of view may I ask why you have felt constrained to separate Mrs. Stuart and me?
56310And give up our home?
56310And how did he look at it?
56310And she believes that too, does she? 56310 And the child''s?"
56310And what as to the others-- the Waldos?
56310And what has been your employment?
56310And what''s the difference? 56310 And with that argument what becomes of noble standards-- of fine ideals of life?
56310And yet,commented Hall,"what should we do without politicians?
56310And you have planned to pursue type- writing as an occupation?
56310And you will be my wife?
56310And your picture appeared?
56310Are you at leisure? 56310 As for that, do you suppose that because your service to me is interrupted I would not stand in the breach?
56310As to a divorce?
56310As to divorce?
56310Before we talk of that, may I ask you one question, Mr. Prentiss? 56310 Believe?"
56310Better? 56310 Blind?
56310But I''m not much hurt, am I?
56310But if this loose view of the marriage tie is to obtain, where is it to end? 56310 But is not the price too high for a free- born citizen to pay?
56310But supposing I''m not seeking forgiveness? 56310 But was n''t your-- wasn''t he man enough to look after you and provide for the child?"
56310But what has been the course of history since the Roman Church promulgated its canon at the Council of Trent more than three hundred years ago? 56310 But what message have you for a world of sinners?"
56310But where is it to end?
56310But you will come to- morrow?
56310But you will go on nursing just the same, wo n''t you, Loretta? 56310 But-- Do you mind telling me why you wished to abandon your baby?"
56310Can I have deserved this, Constance?
56310Concerning what?
56310Crazy, am I? 56310 Did he ask you to marry him?"
56310Did n''t I tell you they could n''t keep me down? 56310 Do n''t you think, Loretta, that it would be better to wait a little before you call?"
56310Do you forbid it?
56310Do you happen to know the causes for which divorce is granted in this State?
56310Do you hear what she says, Gordon?
56310Do you not know?
56310Foreign?
56310God?
56310Good? 56310 Gordon Perry?"
56310Hall was born great, but if Don Perry wants to go to the Legislature why should n''t the Citizens''Club send him there?
56310Happy? 56310 Have one?"
56310Have you heard anyone criticise me?
56310How can I, Gordon? 56310 How dare you tell him such a thing?
56310How did your boss find out?
56310How do you know this?
56310How do you know?
56310I?
56310If so, what becomes of the spiritual obligation that one takes the other for better or for worse? 56310 In my line?"
56310In other words, you are prepared to part with a portion of your worldly possessions, but you object to wholesale confiscation?
56310Is it a boy or a girl?
56310Is it such a surprise, Constance?
56310Is n''t she beautiful? 56310 Is there a photograph of Tottie which you could let me have for the press?
56310It is a terrible condition of affairs, is it not? 56310 It is not a question of common sense-- is it?"
56310It is true, then, what was in the newspapers?
56310It surprises you, does n''t it? 56310 It''s so, is n''t it?
56310Just because you''ve been married once? 56310 Life is made up of compromises, is it not?
56310Loretta has been to see you?
56310Marry again?
56310May I come in?
56310May I smoke? 56310 May they not all say the same?
56310Mrs. Wilson? 56310 Not use your eyes for six months?"
56310Of me? 56310 Oh, Emil, my husband, how could you?"
56310Politics?
56310Publicity? 56310 Since you will not permit Mr. Prentiss to remonstrate with you,"she said,"you will, at least, talk with your uncle?"
56310Six months? 56310 So you gave in?"
56310South Dakota?
56310Squat in his office, eh, like a spider waiting for flies? 56310 Stunning, is n''t it?
56310Supposing, Mrs. Stuart, that everyone were to reason in the same way, what would become of our churches?
56310The question is, what is right?
56310The seal of beauty?
56310The simple question is, must I-- is it my duty, to renounce all this? 56310 The truth?"
56310Then where will you draw the line?
56310Then you love me, Constance?
56310Then your argument rests on the letter of Christ''s words?
56310Then, where do you draw the line?
56310There is no change?
56310True? 56310 Was Christ happy?
56310Was n''t I a fool to jump off that car?
56310We might divide all round,Paul continued,"but what good would that do?
56310Well, sir, how do you justify it? 56310 Well, what are our chances of getting away from here?"
56310What are they, Loretta?
56310What are they?
56310What do you mean, Loretta?
56310What do you suppose she''d say if I were to go back to my man?
56310What do you think of these reasons?
56310What do you want?
56310What does he offer her?
56310What does this mean? 56310 What is it you want me to do?"
56310What use are spurs to a man who has no boots to wear them on?
56310What use is a home in a place where a man is cramped and circumvented in every big thing he attempts? 56310 What use would it be, anyway?
56310What''s the matter? 56310 When your husband ran away?"
56310When?
56310Where is your baby?
56310Which means?
56310Why did n''t you consent to move to New York when I wished to go?
56310Why do you go there?
56310Why not? 56310 Why not?"
56310Why would it be a sin?
56310Why? 56310 Why?"
56310Why?
56310Will he guarantee it?
56310Will it be in the newspapers?
56310Will you tell me a little more about yourself and your capabilities? 56310 With whom?
56310Wo n''t you sit down? 56310 Worse?
56310Would Mr. Prentiss consent to marry me?
56310Would Mr. Prentiss marry me to you?
56310Would it?
56310Would n''t she have had a better home at the expense of the State than any I could have given her? 56310 Would the church demand it absolutely?"
56310Would you object to my smoking my pipe?
56310Wrong? 56310 Yes, and when Mrs. Waldo gets her divorce in South Dakota and comes back married again, wo n''t everybody she cares about receive her just the same?
56310You are the mother of the little girl, madam?
56310You do not know his whereabouts, nor whether he is alive or dead?
56310You go elsewhere, then?
56310You know where he is?
56310You mean if you had succeeded in abandoning your child?
56310You play on the violin, then?
56310You see I have n''t any case, have I?
56310You see through me, father, do n''t you? 56310 You seem to take a heap of interest in me, do n''t you?"
56310You wrote to him last night, Constance? 56310 You''d deprive me of my beer, would you?
56310You''re Mrs. Randolph Wilson, are n''t you?
56310You''re wondering what Mrs. Wilson will say?
56310Your clergyman?
56310Your name is?
56310Your private secretary?
56310Your wife betrayed you?
56310''What could suit her better?
56310After all why should she a second time on Emil''s account set her face against the truth in the presence of this true friend?
56310After all, was not his mission to help men and women as he found them?
56310And after all, what was she herself but one of the common people?
56310And it was chance, I suppose, that you left it on my door- steps rather than elsewhere?"
56310And more galling still, why had luck played him false by singling out the only possible combination of events which could have done him harm?
56310And that''s the Church?
56310And then again, as she was sacrificing her love for a principle, why conceal from this other struggler the vital conclusion she had reached?
56310And true not only of her but of him?
56310And were not their own consciences and their own intelligences the only fit judges of the eternal merits?
56310And what do you suppose I told him?
56310And what is to blame?
56310And what would be the result if I retired?
56310And who says it is not right?"
56310And why should you consider changing places with him?"
56310And why should you mind its being true if you love him?
56310And, after all, what does a little publicity matter?
56310Are you, Mrs. Stuart,"he continued,"prepared to do without the offices of religion, and to substitute for them a pagan holiday?"
56310Are your parents living?"
56310As a modern priest I am aware of the sophistry of the criticism, for who, if the church does not, will stand as the protector of the home?
56310As she put out her hand to take it from him, she said in a low, resolute tone:"Will you tell me what those are?"
56310As soon as you obtain a divorce?"
56310As to myself, you agree with me, do n''t you, that a divorce is the only possible, the only sensible, course to adopt?"
56310Ask the operatives in the factories across the river what they think of the justice of the millionaire''s God?
56310Because I made a dreadful mistake, is it my highest duty to renounce this happiness as a forbidden thing?
56310Besides, if I had given it to you, would n''t it have been lost with the rest now?"
56310Besides, supposing I did n''t marry again-- supposing Paul''s wife did not marry again, what would happen?
56310Blind?"
56310But after all, is it to be wondered at that so many of them do?
56310But how has she-- her church-- paid you back?
56310But how is one with neither to be sure of being right?"
56310But how?
56310But if Lucille was in love with him and her mother acquiescent, what was there to do?
56310But in their secret souls what did they believe?
56310But is n''t she beautiful?
56310But just supposing?
56310But the clergy can not afford to be unbusiness- like, can they?
56310But what can a mother whose daughter prefers athletics to art, and fox terriers to philanthropy, do but make the best of it?
56310But what could she do?
56310But what hope was there for the future?
56310But what is a fellow to do?
56310But what was the remedy?
56310But why does n''t somebody establish a really first- class newspaper?"
56310But why had Mr. Perry been so queer?
56310But why not?"
56310But why, then, should anyone criticise you?"
56310But without them?
56310But would he recognize it?
56310But would not this be old- fashioned?
56310By the way, do you happen to need a stenographer?
56310Can it fundamentally avail that a few should be exquisite and have radiant thoughts, if the rest are condemned to a coarse, unlovely heritage?"
56310Can you not see how impatient she is to have it all to herself?"
56310Can you sew?"
56310Constance gave a little nervous laugh-- or was it the echo of a shiver?
56310Constance was very busy, but in her heart the query was ever rising, Will he win?
56310Could any intelligent man have foreseen that the hogs of the country would be stricken with disease?
56310Could anything be more exquisite and fetching?"
56310Could it be her own daughter who was claiming credit for such forbearance?
56310Could it be possible that all prices in Benham were inflated?
56310Could it then be the truth?
56310Could she endure to quarrel with her own and only flesh and blood?
56310Could she have been drinking?
56310Did he divine what was choking her?
56310Did n''t I tell you I could improve on myself?
56310Did not the broker''s report of the purchase and sale, found among the papers in Emil''s desk, support this?
56310Did she not appreciate that they were influenced by no base motives?
56310Do I make myself clear?"
56310Do you call that ingenuous?"
56310Do you love him still?"
56310Do you not see that I must find something to do in order to remain happy?"
56310Do you not see that a haggling calendar account of weeks and months is not applicable to such service as you render me?
56310Do you not see, Constance?"
56310Do you understand me?
56310Does such a process of familiarity dull the edge of romance?
56310Eh?"
56310Familiar?
56310For an instant he seemed to muse on the experience, then briskly recurring to the immediate situation said:"But what can I do for you, Mr. Perry?
56310Give them up to him?
56310Give up business?
56310Gordon?"
56310Half a year?"
56310Has n''t her marriage turned out all right, and is n''t everybody at her feet?
56310Has the church no discretion, could no exception be made in a case like mine?
56310Have I been afraid of work?
56310Have you as a woman considered whether remarriage while your husband is alive would be consistent with the highest feminine purity?
56310Have you ever studied the comparative nutritive properties of foods?"
56310Have you yourself not said so?
56310He had thought of Loretta; would Constance send her if disengaged?
56310He is your boss, is n''t he?"
56310Her brown eyes kindled rapturously and trustfully as she said:"It''s the life after all which counts, is n''t it?
56310Her children, now the only joy of her life?
56310Her heart was in it; for was not Emil at work again and hopeful?
56310Her husband address her like that?
56310Her husband an embezzler?
56310Her love for Emil was dead; the union of their souls was broken; what was there to look forward to?
56310Hope for the realization of that blissful, ennobling married state to which she had looked forward as a bride and had believed in store for her?
56310How better could she manifest this change of mood to Mr. Prentiss than by devotion to church work?
56310How can I be of service?"
56310How could I support a wife in Benham on one thousand dollars a year in the manner in which I should wish her to live?"
56310How could Lucille take the affair so philosophically?
56310How could it be averted?
56310How could it have been helped?
56310How could one discuss causes with a mad woman?
56310How could she appear so unconcerned?
56310How could she expect to?
56310How did she ever find out?
56310How does he take it?
56310How had he been at fault?
56310How is a person in my position to be courteous toward the power of the press and yet to maintain the right to privacy?
56310How is he to escape?
56310How long will it be before we imitate the degeneracy of Rome?
56310How otherwise could she interpret his hostile attitude toward herself?
56310How otherwise, as he sagely remarked, was ideal love to flourish, and were mercenary considerations to be kept at bay?
56310How was I to blame?"
56310How was it to be conquered unless the spirit of energy was nourished by robust frames, unless men were practical and competent as well as soulful?
56310How was it to be reconciled with true womanly refinement?
56310How was this peace of mind to be reconciled with the eternal fitness of things?
56310How would it help him to know that her heart bled for him?
56310I ask you as an intelligent human being and a just man if this is your opinion?"
56310I do n''t wish to pry into your affairs; but do you belong here?
56310I might move into a smaller house, sell my steam yacht and all my stable, except a horse and buggy, and play the Puritan, but what good would that do?
56310I presume you did not wish me to quarrel with her?"
56310If Constance were ready to see that she did not make a spectacle of herself, and would keep an eye on her, why, after all, should she not remain?
56310If he could reach their hearts, what might he not hope for?
56310If it comes to that, and marriages are made in heaven, as the clergy say, what do the dead husbands and wives think about second marriages anyway?
56310If my baby were to die, would n''t she come gliding down here to make me feel resigned?
56310If she were guilty, was it not of treason to her own instincts and her own conscience?
56310If that were gone, what would become of her children?
56310In the millennium are we all to be uncouth and unimaginative?"
56310In what field of energy were his talents to be exercised next?
56310Inequalities?
56310Is it common sense that I must give him up?"
56310Is it not the privilege and the blessing of the young to trust?
56310Is long- suffering devotion to become antiquated?"
56310Is not civil society neglecting its duty?"
56310Is not that enough?"
56310Is not this superb?"
56310Is the Church to remain tongue- tied when the stability of the holy bond of matrimony has become dependent on the mere whims of either party?"
56310Is there any beer in the house?"
56310It was from Gordon Perry, and read by Henrietta it ran as follows: Might he not call that evening?
56310It was the old, old story, she said to herself, but was there a better one?
56310It was the truth; why should he not know?
56310Jumping at this hypothesis, Mrs. Wilson, eager to show that she had comprehended in a flash, responded,"And you do not love him?"
56310Just what you said, is n''t it?
56310Loretta had seen what was in the newspapers, and, since it was true, why should not she know?
56310May I not say with Paul''but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth to those things which are before''?"
56310Might it not be for her own advantage to take a respite from religious functions?
56310Might not the sight of the brilliant, refined spectacle even serve to reinspire her with respect for the decencies of life?
56310Must there not always be inequalities so long as some men were strong and others weak, some courageous and others shiftless?
56310Not if you got a divorce?"
56310Of course it''s supposable, why not?
56310Of what avail an emotional scene such as would be sure to take place were she to let him in?
56310Or had she been loth to display her glasses in public before she had become accustomed to the disfigurement?
56310Perry?"
56310Perry?"
56310Prentiss?"
56310Prentiss?"
56310Religious truth had an absorbing interest for him, but what was religious truth?
56310Shall a woman desert her husband in misery?
56310Shall we blame them if, in the ignorance of youth and under the spell of the law of their beings, they mistake unworthy souls for their ideals?
56310Shall you not pay the penalty, my daughter?
56310She was not willing to stay under her new son- in- law''s roof, but how could she avoid making his acquaintance and dining with him?
56310She''s a widow; would she refuse to marry again if the right man came along?"
56310She''s been nice to me; why should n''t I let her know that I''m sorry for her?
56310Should they send for a policeman, or what was to be done?
56310Since fate had condemned him to attain financial prominence slowly, why should he not secure recognition in the best way he could?
56310Since the hand of society seemed to be against him, why should he not take advantage of the resources at his disposal and save himself?
56310Since the rest of her world failed to turn a cold shoulder on Lucille, was it for her to withhold the welcome befitting an only child?
56310So on the whole----"He paused to choose his phraseology, and his sister, guessing its substance, interposed:"Then you sided with her?"
56310So what right had a person like herself to invade her privacy?
56310Stuart?"
56310That I would not insist on continuing your salary until you were able to return to your post?"
56310That''s what you are, ai n''t it?"
56310The church?
56310The circumstances of your two lives are very different, but is not the principle involved the same?
56310The neighbors?
56310The public have a right to know what''s going on, have n''t they?"
56310Then after a moment''s hesitation she added,"May I ask you something, Emil?
56310Then he was familiar with Benham?
56310Then her misconduct is not known?"
56310Then suddenly a thought occurred to Loretta, and leaning forward she asked tensely,"Does_ she_ know?"
56310Then this-- horror had nothing to do with your decision?"
56310Then, yielding to curiosity or the inclination to break another lance with him, she added:"Of what benefit would it be to me to seek a divorce?"
56310There is nothing more to say, is there?
56310They ask for bread, and what do you give them?
56310They''re not much alike, are they?
56310This outburst of his protesting spirit encountered the query of his dispassionate mind-- what remedy do you suggest?
56310To what but a cross- grained perversity of soul could she ascribe his disposition to blame her for his misfortunes?
56310To whom could she turn?
56310Was he not a clear- headed, astute reasoner, as well as kind?
56310Was her only child prepared to fly so flagrantly in the face of this teaching?
56310Was it a vision, an uncanny creature of the brain?
56310Was it an impurity that she, with a husband living, should love another man?
56310Was it because she painfully recalled that marriage was a lottery?
56310Was it fair to him to keep both the boy and the girl?
56310Was it her duty to let Emil have one of them?
56310Was it in acknowledgment that she had saved her life, or as a symbol of a broader faith?
56310Was it just that one man''s energy and skill should be curtailed to keep pace with another''s incapacity?
56310Was it not already decided?
56310Was it not best to tell her?
56310Was it not indeed true, as Loretta said, that it is love which makes the world go round?
56310Was n''t that better than to be caricatured by some snap- shot with a camera?"
56310Was not endurance of suffering without plaint and with an unruffled countenance one of the tenets of her friend''s à ¦ sthetic creed?
56310Was not her sacrifice for the welfare of society?
56310Was not religion one of the great forces of the world?
56310Was not she herself under the influence of the same charm?
56310Was not such a process in keeping with her sterling sanity and intelligence?
56310Was not that indeed the real truth?
56310Was not the woman of his heart an entrancing prize?
56310Was not this infatuation another tribute to the power of the spirit of beauty?
56310Was not useful, skilful action in the world of affairs the true test of human efficiency?
56310Was she about to strike her flag in the last ditch out of sheer weariness at his bravado?
56310Was she dealing with a seer?
56310Was she doing her work, if these terrible inequalities were to continue?
56310Was she going to live in Benham?
56310Was the Church of England to prescribe doctrine to the thriving, hardy child of its loins forever?
56310Was the holy state of matrimony to be shuffled off and on as though it were a misfit glove?
56310Was the implied reproach sound?
56310Was this good nature the manly, Christian resignation of the victim of misfortune putting aside his grief until the morrow?
56310Was this reality?
56310We all recognize there''s plenty of practical work waiting for us, so what''s the use of distrusting each other''s theories or motives?
56310We could separate at once?"
56310We would seem to have the right to individual privacy, would we not?
56310Were not men''s abilities different, and would they not always be so?
56310What could be wrong in such a union?
56310What could he mean?
56310What did it mean?
56310What did other women do whose husbands ran away and left them?
56310What did the silence mean?
56310What do you think?"
56310What does the consumer get?
56310What good would it do if I remained single?"
56310What good would it do?
56310What grisly thing has happened?"
56310What had called forth their intensity?
56310What had she been going to say?
56310What had she done to deserve this?
56310What had they done, helpless innocents?
56310What has become of Mrs. Morgan''s mortgage money?"
56310What have I done?"
56310What if the truth meant the sacrifice of bright, alluring prospects for her children, and of her own new, great happiness?
56310What is he doing?"
56310What is more alluring than power?"
56310What is that?
56310What is the happiness of the individual compared with the welfare of all?
56310What is there incompatible in being a member of a club like this and wearing patent- leather shoes and the latest thing in collars?"
56310What kind of work was it?"
56310What more natural so long as she was undisturbed by her deserting husband?
56310What right had you to meddle?"
56310What should she say?
56310What should that work be?
56310What sound reason is there why you should sacrifice your happiness-- the happiness of us both?"
56310What was his remedy?
56310What was it I said?
56310What was it held her back?
56310What was she to do?
56310What was the key to the riddle?
56310What was the use of spending so much on mere creature comforts?
56310What was to be the limit-- the outcome of this renaissance of beauty and comfort, which he had welcomed?
56310What was to be the outcome of this zest for luxurious personal comfort?
56310What were the staples of Benham?
56310What would a woman in Paris or London have done?
56310What would he do with a baby anyway?"
56310What would her own father have said-- the country doctor whose sympathy with humanity was so profound?
56310What would her sympathy profit him?
56310What''s the use of being respectable if, when true love does come, a poor, deserted woman is robbed of it for such a reason as that?"
56310What''s the use of decorating a house that''s going to be struck by lightning?"
56310What''s wrong about it?"
56310What, indeed?
56310What, then, can I do for this young person?"
56310Whatever happened, why should he not know?
56310Where had she gone?
56310Where should she hide her head?
56310Where was she to find work?
56310Where was the open sesame to the social truth which should be universal beauty?
56310Where were his funds to come from?
56310Where will you draw the line?
56310Whereupon she began sturdily,"Only, Mr. Perry----"Why did she pause?
56310Who could it be?
56310Who could tell?
56310Who do you suppose he was?"
56310Who is to hold them to account?
56310Who knows?"
56310Who says so?
56310Who stands in the way?
56310Who were her friends?
56310Who would n''t be a multi- millionaire if he could?
56310Who would unearth it?
56310Why better?"
56310Why did her husband look at her with that malevolent gaze as though she had contributed to his distress?
56310Why do n''t you go smash my fiddle, too?
56310Why exchange private life and the herbs of personal respect for publicity and a stalled ox which is tainted?"
56310Why had he not discovered the street- car company projects in advance and made friends with the promoters?
56310Why had not Lucille written?
56310Why is n''t religion just as real and true a part of man as any other instinct of his being?
56310Why not become alderman on the workingman''s ticket?
56310Why should I accept the dogma of that reverend father in God that a man can do nothing by his own efforts?
56310Why should Loretta be so unfeeling as to make her personal experiences the test of such a text?
56310Why should a vitiated contract be a bar between you and happiness?
56310Why should a young and beautiful woman starve her being on such a plea, and reject such happiness as this?"
56310Why should he who had left them in the lurch have either?
56310Why should she deny herself that ecstasy?
56310Why should she not yield?
56310Why should the Church usurp the functions of the State?
56310Why should you or the church seek to deprive me of happiness?
56310Why take his profit when the whole financial horizon was ominous with clouds, and money was becoming tighter every day?
56310Why was he the possessor of twenty millions?
56310Why worse?"
56310Will the State make a better use of the surplus, as you call it?"
56310Will they never learn not to send dishonest men to represent them?"
56310Will you tell me about it now before we look at the presents?"
56310Will you tell me your name?"
56310Will you tell me,"he added, with slow emphasis,"what society is to gain by disintegrating large fortunes acquired by energy and thrift?
56310With how large a subscription shall I head the list?"
56310Wo n''t you give up beer?
56310Would it baffle mankind forever?
56310Would it be fair to the children to separate them?
56310Would she be able some day to send Emil to college?
56310Would she be justified in keeping them both, in view of the affection which their father had professed for his own flesh and blood?
56310Would she refuse to reverence this standard?
56310Would the harmony last?
56310Would you consent to divorce for gross drunkenness or conviction for felony?"
56310Would you dare trust these babies to your husband''s keeping?
56310Would you like to walk through some of the other rooms?"
56310Would you prefer to have her abstain from a divorce and live abroad with Bradbury Nicholson?
56310Wrong?
56310Yet how could Lucille be so calm?
56310Yet, what were Mr. Prentiss and his feelings in comparison with her obligation to her husband?
56310You came to Benham a few months before your marriage to fit yourself to be a kindergarten teacher, if I remember aright?"
56310You do n''t mean to tell me you''ve refused him?"
56310You have been employing him lately, I believe?"
56310You have n''t heard anything?"
56310You have two children, I believe?"
56310You know what Constance means, Loretta?"
56310You''d like to see me in Congress some day, would n''t you?
56310Your employer, Mr. Perry, what has he said to this?
56310Your uncle----""You know surely what has happened?"
56310Your wife?
56310[ Illustration:"Oh, Emil, my husband, how could you?"
56310but she''ll feel bad, wo n''t she?"
56310or would centuries hence some searcher-- perhaps a woman like herself-- discern and reveal it?
39834A high hat too?
39834Ah, do you remember my child?
39834Ah, you know about that?
39834Ah?
39834Am I treated any better than a servant in this house?
39834And are you the master?
39834And end of imprisonment?
39834And have you got that much?
39834And how about the horns?
39834And how about the magpie?
39834And how about you? 39834 And how about you?"
39834And how are those two women going to live?
39834And how do you propose to repay it?
39834And how goes it now?
39834And how is Aunt Bachissia? 39834 And so, good sheep, you''ve come back?
39834And the master?
39834And what good will it do? 39834 And what have you to say about it all, Giovanna?"
39834And where would we go, Brontu Dejas?
39834And why not let her read if she wants to?
39834And why were you going to do that, my soul? 39834 And you are going to marry?"
39834And you consider that you are doing right when you act in this manner?
39834And you were not frightened?
39834And your legs, have they plenty of punctures?
39834Any children?
39834Are n''t you ashamed of yourselves? 39834 Are we there?"
39834Are you afraid that I will murder some one?
39834Are you afraid you are going to die from a tarantula bite? 39834 Are you awake?"
39834Are you drunk?
39834Are you fond of your wife?
39834Are you going to stay out here? 39834 Are you not just as crazy to dare to come to me with such a proposition?
39834Are you really and truly innocent?
39834Are you stark mad, both of you?
39834Are you such a fool, my soul, as not to have known it from the first? 39834 Bah, what does that amount to?
39834Bless me, Isidoro Pane, and are you really going to be married?
39834But does he_ beat_ her?
39834But see here, whose fault is it all? 39834 But the very first moment that you saw it, tell the truth now, you were scared then, were n''t you?"
39834But what good, what possible good? 39834 But what wind blows you to these parts, little spring bird?"
39834But why did n''t you send for me? 39834 But why do n''t you speak to Giovanna?"
39834But you are a Christian, my friend; if she were to do it, would she not be in the right?
39834Can you tell me if Isidoro Pane is anywhere about? 39834 Costantino, what is it?
39834Crows, are we? 39834 Dear little brother, what on earth are you talking about?
39834Did he ever come back?
39834Did n''t you tell me to yourself?
39834Did you hear him say it?
39834Did you kill it?
39834Did you know that Costantino Ledda had been sentenced to thirty years?
39834Did_ I_ say so?
39834Do n''t talk to him like that; what sort of way is this to carry on?
39834Do n''t you know that he could have helped you with Giovanna? 39834 Do you hear me?"
39834Do you know how much this breakfast would cost in Rome? 39834 Do you know,"said Aunt Bachissia suddenly,"the old colt is going crazy?"
39834Do you mean that you think we are drunk?
39834Do you see this? 39834 Do you want anything?"
39834Eternity, precisely; eternity comes after-- where are you going, Minnia? 39834 Eternity?"
39834Feeling badly?
39834Giacobbe,said the little woman,"what need is there of calling in witnesses?
39834Giovanna Era,said she in a gruff voice,"what are you about all in the dark?
39834Giovanna tells me that the old colt suspects----"What?
39834Giovanna,he began quietly,"does not love her husband; you and she might meet----""She and I might meet?
39834Good- evening, Giovanna; Aunt Bachissia, how goes it with you?
39834Has Brontu got back?
39834Has she applied for it?
39834Have n''t you known all along how it would be?
39834Have the Dejases been here?
39834Have they finished harvesting where you come from?
39834Have you been to see the women yet? 39834 Have you children?"
39834Have you ever seen San Costantino? 39834 Have you seen the Pope, my son?"
39834How are the legs? 39834 How are we ever going to manage after you have gone?"
39834How are you, Giovanna? 39834 How are you?"
39834How can you have the heart to fool those poor creatures so?
39834How do you feel?
39834How goes it now? 39834 How is she to know that?"
39834How large? 39834 I can sleep out of doors perfectly well,"he thought,"but it would have been so amusing to walk up to Isidoro''s door-- Bang, bang--''Who''s there?''
39834I do n''t know; we are near Procida; is that where the galleys are?
39834I will see you again; you are not leaving yet awhile?
39834I? 39834 I?
39834I? 39834 I?
39834I? 39834 I?
39834If I am not mistaken, that is Giacobbe Dejas?
39834If I were to go there-- well, what would happen? 39834 If she does n''t choose to spend her money, how am I to make her?"
39834Is Brontu coming home?
39834Is it a wound? 39834 Is it a wound?"
39834Is it locked? 39834 Is she asleep now?"
39834Is your mother dead? 39834 It''s the man who murdered his uncle, is n''t it?"
39834Let him alone; does n''t he have to work and live like a servant himself? 39834 Listen,"said the old woman, seating herself;"you can probably guess what it is that brings me here?"
39834Mamma, dear, why need you swear at him? 39834 My soul, you are?
39834No, no; this is a time to dissemble, old Martina; to pretend, spy, listen, watch-- and then?
39834No, no; what are you thinking of?
39834No; why?
39834Not really? 39834 See here,"he said suddenly;"why do n''t you two get married?
39834Shall I get something to eat or not?
39834She too, yes; what business is it of yours? 39834 She too?"
39834She will be up at the folds all night, and your wife is all alone-- do you understand-- alone?
39834So that''s your idea, is it? 39834 So you do n''t care about marrying?"
39834Stop; where are you going?
39834Suppose,he said suddenly,"your wife were to marry again?"
39834Suspects that you and Giovanna-- you understand? 39834 Taking the air?"
39834That crazy man? 39834 That''s all very well, but how about the sweat of my brow, little spring bird?
39834The high hat is a widower?
39834The''strangers''room''?
39834Then why are n''t you surprised?
39834Then you are not going to hire out any more?
39834There now, will you leave off, you naughty children?
39834There''s the sun, do n''t you see it? 39834 This burning sun, and just how is it going to help her?"
39834To the Dejases''? 39834 To the magistrate''s; it''s cold, though, now, and it''s a long way to go; you must not go on horse- back, Anna- Rosa, do you hear?
39834To- morrow? 39834 To- morrow?
39834Twenty- seven years, what is that after all? 39834 Uncle Isidoro Pane, did you have good sport?"
39834Was the punishment for that, or for Basile Ledda''s murder?
39834Well, Aunt Bachissia, and then? 39834 Well, and suppose they are fooled; if it gives them any comfort to hope, is not that an act of kindness in itself?
39834Well, have you written another laud?
39834Well, is n''t bacon pork? 39834 Well, so you are not going to die after all, little spring bird?"
39834Well, what can you suggest to do? 39834 Well, what difference does that make to me?"
39834Well, what do I care? 39834 Well, what is it?
39834Well, what is the matter now?
39834Well, what news?
39834Well, what then?
39834Well, what was the result?
39834Well, who knows? 39834 Well, why do n''t you go on?"
39834Well,said Aunt Martina at length,"did n''t you bring me anything from Nuoro?
39834Well,said the old witch, her green eyes glittering with triumph,"is not that just what I am saying?
39834Well,she demanded;"what is the matter?
39834What are flamingoes good for?
39834What are we about now?
39834What are you doing here? 39834 What are you dressed that way for?"
39834What are you going to do with it when it is done?
39834What are you laughing at, you mangy cur?
39834What are you looking at me like that for? 39834 What are you worrying these good people for?"
39834What bride and groom?
39834What business had you to go near the den of those wretched beggars?
39834What can you do?
39834What could I do with another? 39834 What did you know?"
39834What difference does that make, Bachissia Era?
39834What do you always say''upon my soul''for?
39834What do you expect to do?
39834What do you mean by saying such a thing as that, Giacobbe?
39834What do you say?
39834What do you think? 39834 What do you want to talk about?"
39834What do you want, squint- eyed goat?
39834What do you want?
39834What do_ you_ say, Giovanna Era, does eternity follow? 39834 What does it all mean?
39834What for?
39834What good wind blows you here?
39834What has happened?
39834What have I to wait for?
39834What he said? 39834 What is doing right?
39834What is it, child of grace?
39834What is it, my dear?
39834What is it? 39834 What is it?
39834What is it? 39834 What is she doing in there?"
39834What is the matter with you?
39834What makes you talk that way, you fool?
39834What need is there to carry on like that, right out here in sight of the white house? 39834 What ought we to do?"
39834What room have you given them?
39834What sort of manners are these?
39834What the devil''s the matter with you?
39834What the thunder were they saying to you?
39834What then?
39834What will be bad for me?
39834What would you have, my friend? 39834 What''s all this?
39834What''s the matter with you? 39834 What,"he demanded,"could happen?
39834When does the warm weather begin with you? 39834 When?"
39834Where are we off to?
39834Where from?
39834Where is Giovanna?
39834Where would you go? 39834 Where?"
39834Who can believe you, woman, when you do n''t respect even the dead?
39834Who did it?
39834Who is there?
39834Who is to go to the devil?
39834Who knows?
39834Who puts such ideas as these into your head, my son?
39834Who wants me?
39834Who was there?
39834Who? 39834 Who?
39834Who?
39834Who?
39834Why do n''t you want to marry my sister?
39834Why do you do that?
39834Why must he be better off? 39834 Why must it?"
39834Why on earth should they be sorry for me?
39834Why should I lay a trap for you? 39834 Why should I tell the Director?
39834Why, certainly; why not? 39834 Why, of course; why?"
39834Why?
39834Will you do me one favour more, Maria Chicca? 39834 Yes, I am, I''m crazy; but even so, what do you care?
39834Yes, I hear you; but what is there to do? 39834 Yes, so I did; and now, you mean to say, I am perhaps not going to see him again?
39834Yes; why not?
39834Yes? 39834 Yes?
39834You are a man of the Lord, Isidoro Pane; a very dreadful thing has happened; will you help me to set it right?
39834You are scared, eh? 39834 You can?
39834You do n''t believe me? 39834 You do n''t fancy night excursions?
39834You know?
39834You mean that you would kill yourself, my beloved?
39834You think I''m crazy?
39834You think, perhaps, that she is better than I?
39834You too?
39834You want to know if I have seen the priest? 39834 You would like to keep me here forever, you rascal?"
39834Your Honour,said he,"will surely not return to the house with this infant?
39834Your side? 39834 _ I_ knew it already?"
39834''I''--''Who''s I?''
39834''Then why do n''t you cry?''
39834''Why on earth should I?
39834A great many do it that way, why should n''t we?''
39834After Costantino came back?"
39834Ah, what have they done to him?
39834All right, eh?
39834Am I crazy?"
39834Am I not actually her husband?
39834Am I reproaching you for anything?
39834And I am going away; one ca n''t stay in this place after having crossed the sea-- who is that going by?"
39834And I ca n''t give you anything, not a thing; do you understand?
39834And after all, what is thirty years?
39834And after death what is there?"
39834And even if he were never to return, there was the boy, how about him?
39834And his old bird- of- prey mother too?
39834And how, pray, are we to find him out?
39834And is it long since you last saw San Costantino on the river- bank?"
39834And just tell me, you, Aunt Porredda, suppose I had been some other woman, and suppose there had been no divorce, what would have happened?
39834And still you do n''t understand?
39834And suppose Costantino should come back?
39834And what could I do with it, anyhow?"
39834And what is it that you are going to speak to him about?"
39834And who is to find him out?"
39834And why should you give up, anyhow?
39834And yet, were we not just as much man and wife?
39834And you came in for that, and not to see me?"
39834And-- isn''t she my wife, Giovanna?
39834Another silence; then Isidoro said:"Who knows?
39834Answer me----Yes,"she murmured presently,"he is alive, but ill, ill-- you are ill, are n''t you?"
39834Are we even certain that Costantino did not do it himself?"
39834Are we there?"
39834Are you alone?"
39834Are you dead or alive?
39834Are you earning anything?"
39834Are you there?
39834Are you there?
39834As lonely as an outcast dog, what on earth was there for him to do throughout that interminable evening?
39834At this Brontu, quite beside himself, suddenly turned on her:"What is the matter with you, anyhow?"
39834Aunt Bachissia, on the contrary, asked innumerable questions: Had she found the old Dejas alone?
39834Bachissia Era-- yes, or no?"
39834Beans-- milk-- bacon-- cheese?"
39834Brontu was arriving, and she was frightened-- what about----?
39834But am I not her husband?
39834But how could you ever suppose that I knew about it?"
39834But is it my fault if I ca n''t help pitching into you sometimes, little spring bird?
39834But now that he is dead what has she left?
39834But now-- now-- where was he to turn for rest and ease?
39834But suppose I do hang about her house, what business is it of yours?"
39834But tell me why is it that the priest is so anxious for it?
39834But tell me, are you really certain that Giovanna and Costantino are meeting each other?"
39834But why?
39834Ca n''t I get married if I want to?
39834Ca n''t I say things to my shoe, I''d like to know?"
39834Costantino!--what on earth is it?
39834Could anything have happened at the sheepfolds?
39834Death, death, what else remained for him?
39834Did he not long to go away?
39834Did he or did he not kill that infamous Vulture?
39834Did n''t you write to me that that was what you wanted to do?"
39834Did she not believe in God?
39834Did she want to be removed by force?
39834Did the old woman know of her daughter''s renewed relations with Costantino?
39834Did you come all the way on foot?"
39834Do n''t you see what you have done among you to that poor man?"
39834Do n''t you want me to die?"
39834Do you hear me?
39834Do you know what you are doing?
39834Do you know, I read somewhere that in Russia they think very highly of rancid lard?"
39834Do you remember that first time when I asked you?
39834Do you remember that night at your house, when you said:''It might be you who killed him''?
39834Do you remember that story I was telling you on the road from Nuoro?
39834Do you remember what sort of a marriage it was?
39834Do you see how old I have grown?
39834Do you see the old harpy peering at us?
39834Do you suppose he was brought up on gold?"
39834Do you understand?
39834Do you understand?
39834Do you understand?
39834Do you want some more-- yes?--and more still-- yes----?"
39834Does a body have to live?
39834Felt even by happy souls, may it not be an inherited homesickness, transmitted through all the ages?
39834First, though, tell me how your legs are?
39834For a beggar taken in out of the streets to betray her benefactors?
39834Giacobbe lay quiet for a few moments; then he said:"Shall you two go together to the magistrate''s?"
39834Give me a little more_ cafà ©-au- lait_, mamma; is there any?"
39834Go away?
39834God has grown weary; and who can wonder?
39834Had Brontu come back?
39834Had Giovanna given in?
39834Had he loved him very dearly?
39834Had she no conscience at all?
39834Has not fate cursed him enough as it is?"
39834Have I ever done anything to you?"
39834Have her betray me too?
39834Have n''t I a perfect right to be with her whenever I choose?"
39834Have n''t you known it for months and months?"
39834Have you a wife?"
39834Have you ever been in that part of the country?
39834Have you ever eaten any chocolate?"
39834Have you got any brandy?"
39834Have you got the colic?"
39834Have you left your place?"
39834Have you noticed that?"
39834He had made up his mind to avoid them, if possible not even to see them or pass by their cottage; what good would it do?
39834He turned towards her:"You read novels, do n''t you?"
39834He was one of the witnesses; but I believe he''s back, is n''t he?"
39834He was paid for it all, to be sure, but what did that signify?
39834He was pressing on, but whither?
39834Her green eyes flashed as she asked haughtily:"And you wish him not to, Giacobbe?"
39834Her heart sank, while he continued quietly, addressing Isidoro:"And you?
39834How can I-- how can I stay here?
39834How can you marry her?"
39834How can you say such things, Isidoro Pane?
39834How could a child born in mortal sin be pretty?
39834How do you know whether you will be poor or rich when you are old?
39834How does it go now?"
39834How had he ever come to do such a thing?
39834How in the name of the holy souls in purgatory had he ever done it?
39834How long is it since you''ve been to confession?"
39834How much does it cost to go to Rome?"
39834How-- why-- what on earth do you mean?
39834I have been working for forty years; do you take that in?
39834I have plenty of bread and wine in my bag; what more could any one want?
39834I say, do you understand, idiot?"
39834I shall, however, go to him at once; he receives every official, and what am I if not an official?
39834I think I can guess what it is you want me to do; you want me to use my influence with Costantino to get him to leave your family in peace----?"
39834I''m not bad, though; did n''t I stay up at the folds only to- day, working to repair the damage made by yesterday''s storm?
39834If I choose to say-- calf,--or ram,--or sheep,--or dog,--what business is it of yours?
39834If he chose to get drunk, what business was that of yours?"
39834If he could not be open and natural with him, with whom could he be?
39834Is he afraid that I will kill Brontu Dejas?"
39834Is it any business of yours, you puppy?
39834Is it long since you heard from Costantino?"
39834Is it perfectly natural for a woman to be unfaithful?
39834Is it true that he is ill?"
39834Is n''t she my mother- in- law?"
39834Is not Costantino Ledda coming back some day?"
39834Is that all you have to tell me?''
39834Is that what you want to say?
39834Is this your gratitude towards those who have fed and clothed and nourished you?
39834It makes no difference to me, why should it to you?"
39834It was better-- it was far, far better----""Well,"demanded Aunt Bachissia coldly,"what was better?"
39834Just tell me now, can he help me to earn a living?
39834Let me see, what did he say?
39834Moreover, how could he know, supposing for a moment that he were to go, whether Giovanna would receive him or drive him away?
39834No, indeed, but,--what right had that vile servant to talk of his master so?
39834No?"
39834Not they; have n''t they got the sun?
39834Now tell me one thing: what is it that comes after old age?"
39834Now, listen-- I do n''t suppose I have to make you promise not to tell any one?
39834Now-- what shall I get you?
39834Of what had she been thinking in that moment of silence and darkness?
39834Only what has any one ever known about it?
39834Perhaps he would be singing the lauds; may be_ those_ lauds, who knows?
39834Perhaps you think it wrong?
39834Peter''s?"
39834Porreddu?"
39834Pretty well punctured?"
39834Raising his voice until it echoed through the surrounding silence and solitude, he shouted:"What_ have_ they done to him?
39834Really, though, wo n''t you have a little coffee?
39834Shall we two get married?
39834Shall you go, Giovanna?
39834Shall you not go?"
39834Some-- thing-- has-- got-- to-- be-- done----Do you hear me?"
39834Suppose even that she were to come back to me?
39834Suppose he had been sentenced to thirty, would not that have been worse?
39834That brought my little shorn lamb, eh?"
39834That''s what brought you in, is it?
39834The light of eternity, or-- the darkness of eternity?
39834The little doctor is making you all laugh?"
39834The man was still writing, and did not stop as he presently said in a loud, hard voice:"You are named----?"
39834The sentence is to- morrow, is it not?"
39834The sweat of my brow, does n''t that count for anything?"
39834Then he said:"Why do you take all this trouble for me, Anna- Ro?
39834Then the Lord unto him did say:''My Peter, what is it ails thee to- day?''
39834Then, last night he was with her again; do you understand?
39834Then, looking all around her, she said:"I want to talk to you privately; can any one hear us?
39834Then, what would become of him?
39834There is that priest whom we have-- Elias Portolu-- the one who is so good, you know him?
39834There, do you see that tree over yonder?
39834They were going-- where?
39834They were silent-- why?
39834To die, to die-- Why should he want to go on living?
39834Uncle''Sidoro?
39834Was he going to the house with the newly baptised infant or no?
39834Was she quite mad?
39834We are all on the road to perdition here, and why not?
39834Well, I am perfectly willing, but whom shall I get?
39834Well, and if we did, what then?"
39834Well, and what if I am?
39834Well, and what then?"
39834Well, are those the eggs?
39834Well, did n''t they seem to you like so many houses, each with its little family living inside?"
39834Well, do n''t I take the risk of being put in a cell in order to serve him?"
39834Well, if he does, what then?"
39834Well, that''s so; how could you?
39834Well, what do you think of the new Ministry?"
39834Well, what manner of foolishness was this for him to be thinking of now?
39834Well, what of that?
39834What are they_ going_ to do to him?
39834What are you about, Uncle Isidoro?
39834What are you crying for, anyhow?
39834What are you crying for?
39834What are you doing?
39834What are you doing?"
39834What are you doing?"
39834What are you looking for, little hedgehogs?"
39834What are you talking about?
39834What better''stranger''could there be than I?"
39834What business was it of his to meddle in his master''s concerns?
39834What can he do, except batter out his brains against the wall?"
39834What did I do last evening?"
39834What did he do?
39834What did it matter whether he got home this day or the next, since there was no one to expect him?
39834What did it signify who the assassin was?
39834What difference would it make to me, little spring bird?
39834What do you suppose it is?
39834What do you think about it, Uncle Fisherman; shall I go or not?"
39834What else should you be, woman?"
39834What good does it do?
39834What good has it all done you?
39834What good will getting angry do you?
39834What good will it do to be well off when you''re old?
39834What had happened?
39834What had it done to him?
39834What had made him utter that man''s name?
39834What had that little beast-- his master-- accomplished?
39834What has become of the old witch?
39834What has eating your supper to- night to do with the sentence to- morrow?"
39834What have they done to you?"
39834What have they done to you?"
39834What have you to reproach me with?
39834What is Costantino going to say when he comes back?
39834What is he doing here?
39834What is he going to say?"
39834What is it?
39834What is marriage, after all?
39834What is that that you are making, Uncle''Sidoro?"
39834What is the matter, Anna- Ro?
39834What is the matter, little brother?"
39834What is the matter?"
39834What is the use of bothering him?
39834What is there for any of us, but hope?"
39834What is there for me to do here, anyhow?"
39834What is there for me to do?"
39834What is there for supper?"
39834What kind of way to do was that?
39834What made you hide the letter?
39834What makes you look at it like that?
39834What more do they want?"
39834What shall it be?
39834What shall we have for supper, Giovanna?"
39834What should I do with gold, anyway?"
39834What sort of a life is it?
39834What then?
39834What then?"
39834What use is there in wasting things?
39834What was to happen afterwards?
39834What were you doing at your mother''s?
39834What will you say when the old woman is mounted on the crupper?"
39834What would Brontu do if he knew?
39834What would he find there-- just beyond?
39834What would he think when he grew up and found that his mother had two husbands?
39834What would you have?
39834What would you like to have?"
39834What''s all this?"
39834What''s the matter?
39834What, I say?"
39834When is Priest Elias coming?"
39834When it was finished he was wild with joy, but instantly an overpowering desire to tell some one about it seized him; whom was there, though, to tell?
39834Where are my matches?"
39834Where are you?
39834Where is Brontu Dejas?"
39834Where is_ he_?"
39834Where to?"
39834Who could it be?
39834Who is there to marry me?
39834Who knows?
39834Who knows?
39834Who was there?"
39834Who was this other person who was ill?
39834Who would ever suppose that she is older than I?
39834Who would you expect to find at our house?"
39834Who?"
39834Why are n''t you at work, tell me that?
39834Why ca n''t you eat?
39834Why did n''t I confess then?
39834Why did n''t he come back, the little toad?
39834Why do n''t they drive both of them out?"
39834Why do n''t they drive him out like a dog?
39834Why do n''t they horsewhip him?
39834Why do n''t you answer?
39834Why do n''t you do something?
39834Why do n''t you get to work?"
39834Why do n''t you give it to the chickens?
39834Why do n''t you listen to what I am telling you, you old rag- heap?
39834Why do you give up so?
39834Why had he, Giacobbe, beaten that poor dog?
39834Why have you got the door locked?"
39834Why must they come to disturb him?
39834Why not?
39834Why should he?
39834Why should it be my fault if I ca n''t cry now when I think of him?
39834Why should we have any one else?
39834Why should you talk to me like that?
39834Why, see here, she does n''t even write to you any more; she----""What is there for her to write about?"
39834Why-- what-- who told you?"
39834Why?
39834Will there ever be an end to them?"
39834Will you take back the horse and tell her that Costantino is to get twenty- seven years in prison?
39834Will you talk to her on the subject to- morrow?"
39834With this new law-- the devil roast all the lawyers-- who in the world is one ever to trust?
39834Wo n''t you tell me what it is?
39834Wo n''t_ I_ do?"
39834Would he come back or not?
39834Would n''t it be coming back to her own husband?"
39834Would you like to have me make you a pair?
39834Would you like to know something?
39834Would you, yes or no, if you had the chance, murder those men back there who condemned him?
39834Yes, or no?
39834Yes, that''s what I came in for-- well?"
39834Yes, they have indeed got that; but what good is the sun even, when one has nothing to eat, and is suffering every kind of privation?
39834You are going away?
39834You are not thinking of hanging yourself, are you?"
39834You brought me this, but just suppose it were to cure me, what would you do then?"
39834You can go to see her.--You wo n''t go?
39834You can hardly believe it?
39834You do n''t believe me?
39834You do n''t know what an idyl is?
39834You have never seen the Pope?"
39834You have saved thirty silver scudi at the very least, and have begun to build a house of your own, but what have we to show for it?"
39834You knew, did n''t you, that he threatened to beat us?"
39834You know how they used to treat their slaves in the old times?
39834You ought to be thankful to kiss the very ground under my feet; do you hear me?"
39834You really mean to marry that beggar, that married woman, when you might have a flower for your wife?
39834You there, Giovanna Era, tell me why you should be willing to marry a man by civil ceremony when you already have a husband living?"
39834You think it is something about Giovanna Era, eh?
39834You want me to tell you?
39834You want to know, do you?
39834You were thirsty, were n''t you?
39834You wonder what made me do it?
39834You would like to send it home, I suppose?
39834You would n''t betray my confidence, would you?"
39834You''ll let me die in peace, wo n''t you?"
39834You, Isidoro Pane, what happened?"
39834Your child is ill. Why do n''t you tell the Director?"
39834and for such trifles too?
39834and why to- morrow?
39834and why?
39834and yet you never think of it?"
39834are you alive?
39834are you sick?"
39834bad enough, without being actually ill. And you, how do you like your new place?"
39834did n''t you tell me yourself?"
39834do you hear me?"
39834do you understand?
39834go away?
39834he does n''t give me a thought?"
39834he scolded you, did he?
39834here are our guests; good- morning; what have you been about?"
39834is not this house the same as your own?"
39834laughing, are you?
39834said he, stepping forward solicitously,"you look like a man who has had a whipping; what has happened?"
39834said his sister reprovingly; and Uncle Isidoro said playfully:"And so it was hot, little spring bird?"
39834said the chaplain,"I ca n''t do that; how could you write it, anyhow?"
39834she said desperately,"but what good does it do?
39834she went to her mother''s, the old harpy''s?
39834swelling out your sides, are you?"
39834the chickens, do you hear?"
39834the master?
39834the old woman wondered, and if so, why?
39834then you have to go upstairs to reach the water?"
39834there is none?
39834they wanted you to dine with them, did they?
39834walking in the procession, are you?"
39834what did I tell you?"
39834what do you expect?
39834what is the use of thinking of it?"
39834what made that dog bark like that?
39834what-- why-- what is the matter?"
39834why?
39834yes, or no?
39834you are really in earnest?
39834you are there, are you?"
39834you have taken it already?"
39834you here?
39834you mean to be funny, do you?
39834you think it''s foolishness, do you?"
39834you wo n''t do it, you little toad?
39834your side?
4915''Exit Rachael and Bishop, L.''Surely you''ve seen the sundial, Bishop?
4915A-- a girl?
4915About the divorce?
4915Afraid-- of ME?
4915After all,Rachael said presently, giving him a rueful glance,"what are the statistics?
4915Ah, Greg,she said tenderly,"does it seem true, that after all these months of talking, and hoping, you and I are going to belong to each other?"
4915Ai n''t got a crank, have ye?
4915All hooked up straight?
4915All very well, but how''s my wife?
4915Am I usually so dreadful? 4915 An honorable way?"
4915And do you like Miss Clay''s young man?
4915And he likes you better than anybody else in the world, I suppose?
4915And how''s Greg?
4915And if they buzzed at the divorce, what WOULDN''T they say if I really did remarry? 4915 And just how will you go about it?"
4915And love-- surely the contention is that love ought to make one happy?
4915And what about the boys''feelings and rights?
4915And what did-- Warren say?
4915And what do we care, Greg? 4915 And what do you think about it?"
4915And what do you think you would gain by that?
4915And what makes you think that there would be some saving element in our relationship?
4915And what will your life be after this, my child?
4915And what would my branding them as murderers and thieves avail?
4915And where will you go?
4915And why, pray, should I be dreadful?
4915And you are going to let me come and make friends with the boy and the girls some afternoon?
4915And you said?
4915And you think going to Saint Luke''s every Sunday morning at eleven o''clock, and listening to Billy Graves, will fix it all up?
4915And you would want me to marry you, feeling this way?
4915And you''ll be back later, George?
4915And-- and you wo n''t tell him of this?
4915Any plans for the afternoon, girlies?
4915Anyone else in the library?
4915Are n''t we all children?
4915Are n''t you smart with your professional terms?
4915Are there children?
4915Are we to judge our fellowmen?
4915Are you all ready? 4915 Are you going to speak to Clancy?"
4915Are you ready to go?
4915Been having a nice time, dear?
4915Belvedere Bay bore you?
4915But Billy, would n''t that bring you in a fair income, in itself, if it was once filled?
4915But CAN she?
4915But Greg, dear, did you tell me that you and Doctor Valentine drove down yesterday in all that frightful storm?
4915But I thought she was n''t so successful last winter, Warren?
4915But are you going to MARRY him?
4915But ca n''t I help you, Aunt Rachael?
4915But do you hear me, Ma''am? 4915 But is this right, is it fair?"
4915But not you?
4915But surely you''ve had an unusually encouraging beginning?
4915But that wo n''t break to- day?
4915But what do you expect me to do?
4915But what''ll the other man say?
4915But you do n''t call this a Christian country?
4915But you do n''t love me enough to stand by me, now that Rachael is so cross?
4915But-- but sometimes dreams come true, do n''t they?
4915But-- you drove up to- night?
4915By whom?
4915Ca n''t you-- couldn''t you talk to her, Rachael?
4915Cared?
4915Carol?
4915Churchgoing coming in again?
4915Clarence,said she, depositing several pounds of morning papers upon the foot of his bed,"who''s Billy lunching with at the club?"
4915Come on, Bill? 4915 Could I treat him so?
4915Could anything be more preposterous than your letting anything that concerns Clarence Breckenridge affect what you do now?
4915Could n''t you just read to- night, my son, or perhaps Mary would play rum with you? 4915 Could you get him away, now?"
4915Could you-- buy her off?
4915Dead?
4915Dear Lord, what a thing sunshine is?
4915Did I?
4915Did the Valentines know what a tide we were having in Quaker Bridge?
4915Did they ask me?
4915Did they say anything about Parker and Leila?
4915Did you ever dream of happiness like this, Rachael?
4915Did you ever see any one so improved, Warren? 4915 Did you give my message to Miss Roper, Charlotte?"
4915Did you see these?
4915Did you want to ask for Charlie?
4915Do I remember it?
4915Do n''t you care-- that it''s true of me?
4915Do n''t you love me any more, Greg?
4915Do n''t you suppose they ever AIR it?
4915Do n''t you?
4915Do they like toys?
4915Do you HAVE to go?
4915Do you THINK so? 4915 Do you good women realize what time it is?"
4915Do you know her?
4915Do you know if he went to bed last night at all?
4915Do you know what he wants?
4915Do you know what you''re going to BE in about thirty- six hours?
4915Do you know?
4915Do you mean to say you''ve decided, seriously, to do it?
4915Do you often have a scene like that one just now to get through?
4915Do you realize that it''s almost eleven o''clock?
4915Do you realize that you are an absolute-- little-- tyrant?
4915Do you realize,Mrs. Haviland said,"that everyone is beginning to talk?"
4915Do you remember that one set went to nineteen-- twenty- one? 4915 Do you see her often, Warren?"
4915Do you suppose Billy''s with him?
4915Do you suppose this can be true?
4915Do you think it is CUSTOMARY for a girl to come to a man''s wife, and tell her that she cares for him? 4915 Do you want a little waffle all for yourself, Lovey?
4915Do, sweetheart?
4915Doctor Gregory? 4915 Does Alfred have to stay up here doing a chambermaid''s work?"
4915Does he get down here often? 4915 Does it, my darling?"
4915Dreamed of what?
4915Florence is with him, of course?
4915Floss tells me you''re about at the end of your rope-- what?
4915From Joe?--is that so?
4915Funny how much one takes the little beggars for grawnted until it''s one''s own that kicks up the row? 4915 George, DOES Warren have to go to this London convention, or whatever it is?"
4915George, what shall I do?
4915George, why do n''t you see him?
4915Give up your home and your car and your maids for some small hotel?
4915Greg, you''ve not had any? 4915 Greg,"she said a dozen times,"is n''t it all like a dream?"
4915Greg,she said,"do you know what I''d like to be?
4915Grown?
4915Had enough tea, Monkey?
4915Has n''t, huh?
4915Has she got it a shade too short?
4915Have we known each other so long, Greg?
4915Have you seen her once a week?
4915He has all kinds of money, has n''t he, Park?
4915He wo n''t fight it?
4915He''s a decentish sort, do n''t you know? 4915 He''s not a big boob, either, is he, Mother?"
4915Headache?
4915Her plan?
4915How CAN I forgive him?
4915How are the girls? 4915 How are you after all these years?"
4915How are you this morning?
4915How can we say it, of all persons, my darling? 4915 How did you hear this, Warren?"
4915How do you do, Kenneth? 4915 How do you do, Kent?"
4915How do you know?
4915How do you mean a change?
4915How do you mean changed?
4915How do you propose to do it?
4915How is he, Mary?
4915How is he?
4915How long, in Heaven''s name, have you been thinking about it?
4915How often have you seen her?
4915How shall you like keeping house for a man and wife?
4915How was the Chase dinner, Bill?
4915How well did you know Charlie, dear?
4915How''s Clancy?
4915How''s your mother, Greg?
4915I do n''t suppose we could see Magsie, Warren, after this is over?
4915I do n''t suppose you feel like taking Hudson''s work?
4915I know, my dear-- haven''t I been through it all? 4915 I mean to say, she''s living, is n''t she, and all that?"
4915I mean, it is n''t only me? 4915 I suppose I couldn''t-- speak to him a moment, Aunt Rachael?"
4915I wonder if she would let the youngster come down here and scramble about with my boys?
4915I wonder if she would n''t come down to us for a week?
4915I wonder if she would?
4915I wonder if you''ll feel badly, Petty, if I do n''t go?
4915I wonder just what would happen there if Parker lost his money to- morrow-- if Aunt Frothy died and left it all to Magsie Clay?
4915I wonder what he''s doing this summer?
4915I wonder what she considers you-- her champagne?
4915I wonder which phase is hardest to deal with: Billy or poor little Carlotta?
4915I wonder who that is?
4915I wonder why divorce laws are so little understood?
4915I''ve kept you waiting, Martin?
4915I-- I think I left something there-- gloves--"I wonder if you would let me into Miss Clay''s apartment?
4915I? 4915 I?"
4915If she did n''t care for him any more than that, what''s all the fuss about? 4915 In here?"
4915Is Carol here?
4915Is Clarence Breckenridge playing to- day, I wonder? 4915 Is he strong enough to go?"
4915Is he very bad?
4915Is n''t it a wonderful afternoon, Aunt Rachael?
4915Is n''t it almost lunch time?
4915Is n''t it fierce?
4915Is n''t my tiger a darling? 4915 Is n''t she quite lovely?"
4915Is that right?
4915Is that so? 4915 It is as WE feel, is n''t it?"
4915It is n''t too much?
4915Jim,he added in an anxious undertone,"could a fairy drown?"
4915Joe Pickering?
4915Just Tubby and Sam?
4915Just how far have you gone with Magsie?
4915Just how much money is left, Billy?
4915Know her? 4915 Leslie Perry is going to be here to- morrow night, anyway, and we''re going to Thomas Prince''s skating party in the afternoon, are n''t we, Mother?"
4915Let me see-- the next morning-- where was I? 4915 Light a fire in the library, will you?
4915Love you?
4915Love you?
4915M- m- mistake to s- s- say we loved each other, Greg?
4915Magsie,he said almost pleadingly, interrupting the hard little voice,"ca n''t you see what a mistake it''s all been?"
4915Magsie? 4915 Misjudging?"
4915Mother-- PLEASE-- will you make them stop?
4915Must n''t do what?
4915My dear girl, how do I know? 4915 My dear girl,"he said, displeased,"why are you working yourself into a fever over this?
4915Nervous, Rachael?
4915No change?
4915No clubs, no dinners, none of your old friends-- have you thought of that?
4915No-- is she really furious?
4915Not a word-- not a HINT?
4915Not guilty of what?
4915Now, shall you cable-- anybody-- you know who I mean?
4915Oh, Alice, could I get Warren, do you think? 4915 Oh, Ruddy, do you think we can make it, then?"
4915Oh, Warren, is he very ill?
4915Oh, how I''ve missed you-- and you''re more beautiful than ever-- did you know it? 4915 Oh, how do you do, Charlotte?
4915Oh, how do you do, Charlotte? 4915 Oh, my God, how did we ever get into this sickening, sickening mess?"
4915Oh, my God, in this storm?
4915Oh, that''s my nice lady-- gray haired, and with three children?
4915Only that?
4915Only that?
4915Perhaps you can go back and get us a tow? 4915 Perhaps you will be so good as to say no more about it?"
4915Positively?
4915Rachael, dear,Florence said sweetly, when the greetings were over,"will you take the bishop down to look at the sundial?
4915Rachael,he said quickly,"will you come to my mother?"
4915Rachael,she said desperately,"will you TALK to someone-- will you talk to Gardner?"
4915Rachael,yawned little Vivian Sartoris,"for heaven''s sake talk about something else than Warren?"
4915Rachael-- but why do you stand it?
4915Rio?
4915Saturday night?
4915Say it-- do you mean that you love me?
4915Say you were proud of me, Warren?
4915Shall I take you down, Bishop?
4915Shall you be glad, Greg?
4915She tell you?
4915She was the same old sixpence, only growing up now; she owns to nineteen-- isn''t she more than that? 4915 So M''ma''s message was forgotten?"
4915So it was Greg who was curling his hair?
4915So that you can stay a little longer, eh?
4915Some game-- what?
4915Spoils you by leaving you alone in this hot town for six months out of every year?
4915Still in Belvedere Hills?
4915Straight home?
4915Stuck?
4915Surely Clarence would n''t ask a woman to marry him just to give Billy a home and social backing?
4915Talk to her?
4915Tell me, do you go to the Villalongas''?
4915That is, you do n''t think divorced people ought to remarry, even if the divorce is fair enough?
4915The question is, what is Magsie doing?
4915The world?
4915Then could you lunch with Mother? 4915 Then who IS with him, Greg?"
4915Then why keep it up?
4915Then, because we ca n''t all be perfect, it would be better not to try to be good at all?
4915Then-- then you did n''t mean all you said?
4915Things are better, are n''t they, dear?
4915Things?
4915Thinking about what I said to you last night?
4915Too much? 4915 Understand it?"
4915Want to go with me to London?
4915Warren, do you suppose so?
4915Warren, what shall we do?
4915Warren,she said one evening when the move to Home Dunes was near,"should you be sorry if I began to go regularly to church again?"
4915Was Gardner at the Berry Stokes bachelor dinner on Friday night?
4915Was it something you would have rather telephoned about?
4915Was she surprised, Greg?
4915We could take a box, could n''t we, and ask George and Alice?
4915We must go to it-- what?
4915Well, Breck,said she,"do you think you are going to like my house, and my little boys?
4915Well, perhaps we shall have a change here, Anna?
4915Well, she can refuse to give him his divorce, ca n''t she?
4915Well, that was a successful engagement, was n''t it?
4915Well, we''ve had a night of it, eh?
4915Well, what about the child?
4915Well, what d''you think of her, Alice?
4915Well, what did you think would happen?
4915Well, what do you think, Peter?
4915Well, what does HE say?
4915Well, what does he drink and smoke so much, and get this way for?
4915Well, what is it to- night?
4915Well, what would YOU do?
4915Well, why does she stand it?
4915Well, would n''t you rather stay up on the porch with the girls?
4915Well,Magsie said, widening her childish eyes,"did n''t you EXPECT her to be angry?"
4915Well,he said cheerfully,"is anyone in this place glad to see me, or not, or what?"
4915Well?
4915Well?
4915Well?
4915What DOES she want to do?
4915What IS it?
4915What about Charlotte, dear, dear boy?
4915What about it?
4915What about it?
4915What about it?
4915What are you doing this afternoon?
4915What are you making?
4915What are your plans, Magsie?
4915What authority have I? 4915 What d''you mean by that?"
4915What did you expect her to do? 4915 What did you expect her to do?"
4915What did you say, dear?
4915What do you know about Charles asking for Charlotte?
4915What do you mean by forces you ca n''t control?
4915What do you mean by that?
4915What do you mean-- you''ve been a fool?
4915What do you think of this, dearie?
4915What do you think?
4915What does anybody do it for?
4915What does it let Rachael in for?
4915What else would I do?
4915What for?
4915What has Gardner or anyone else to do with it? 4915 What is it to- night, dear?"
4915What is it, Charlie- boy?
4915What is it, Helda?
4915What is it, darling-- hear something?
4915What is it-- the convention?
4915What is it?
4915What is it?
4915What is the plan, Greg?
4915What madness has got hold of that boy now?
4915What makes you think that our love would survive the-- the dry- rot of life? 4915 What shall I do, Greg?
4915What time have you?
4915What will they do?
4915What would YOU like to do?
4915What''s Carol doing, M''ma?
4915What''s MY life? 4915 What''s our elevation?"
4915What''s the difference? 4915 What-- didn''t trust me?"
4915What-- the Hoyts? 4915 What?"
4915What_ I_''D like to know,she added interestedly,"what_ I_''D like to know is, who''s doing this for Magsie Clay?
4915When did he get home?
4915When did you come, and how did you get here? 4915 When do you go?"
4915When do you think I will get well, Miss Snow?
4915Where is he?
4915Where''s Billy?
4915Where''s Clarence, Rachael?
4915Where''s Gerald?
4915Where''s my Derry?
4915Where''s the mother all this time?
4915Where?
4915Who said I met him-- places?
4915Who says you''re a cad?
4915Who understands anything of the whole miserable business? 4915 Why ca n''t we take you home with us, Elinor?
4915Why did n''t you go down to the courts, dear? 4915 Why did you do it?"
4915Why does n''t she take a leaf from Paula''s book,somebody suggested,"and marry again?
4915Why not Mars?
4915Why not?
4915Why should I, Magsie?
4915Why should I?
4915Why should it be stupid for her?
4915Why should she? 4915 Why so pensive, Rachael?"
4915Why--Rachael rose slowly, and slowly unfurled her parasol--"why, suppose we walk up together?"
4915Why, does n''t he want to go?
4915Why, what CAN we do, dear?
4915Why, what else would she do?
4915Why, what''s the matter, my dear child?
4915Wife and baby well, Martin?
4915Will she ever forgive me, George?
4915Will you be a darling, and not trail round the links if we play to- morrow?
4915Will you not-- bump me so, Mother?
4915Will you write me?
4915Wo n''t know? 4915 Wo n''t start, eh?"
4915Would n''t he be more comfortable in his bed?
4915Would rather have telephoned about?
4915Would you like a nap, Warren, or would you like to go over to the beach, just you and me, and have a swim?
4915Would you like me to go with you, Warren?
4915Would you like to have me come down and join you anywhere later?
4915Would you mind if we made it a pretty short run, dear, and then if I dropped you here and went on down to the hospital for a little while?
4915Yes, but then if she should turn to Rachael again?
4915You DARE tell me that, Greg?
4915You and George are n''t quite as good friends as you were, are you?
4915You could n''t drop me at the club, on your way to church, Tante?
4915You did n''t mean that you-- cared? 4915 You do n''t mean,"Rachael said incredulously,"that we shall have to GO ON with it?"
4915You do n''t mind his being kind to me, do you, Rachael?
4915You do? 4915 You drove down?"
4915You know Rachael has left me, George?
4915You like to think I''m jealous, do n''t you?
4915You mean that Mrs. Gregory dismissed you?
4915You mean that you are really going to leave him, Rachael?
4915You mean that you''re not going to MAKE her keep her word?
4915You mean you regret your marriage?
4915You mean your call on Rachael?
4915You mean your work ca n''t spare you?
4915You mean, she does n''t like the-- divorce part of it?
4915You my squaw?
4915You say he has?
4915You surely do n''t think that_ I_ originated this theory?
4915You take cream, Judy, and two lumps? 4915 You think that''s fair to Clarence?"
4915You understand M''ma, do n''t you, dear?
4915You want some money?
4915You wo n''t just telephone that you''re delayed, Greg, and leave me to wonder and worry?
4915You would n''t mind my sending a line down by the boy?
4915You''ll go on with your work, now that you''ve begun so well, wo n''t you?
4915You''re dining at the Chases'', are n''t you, Billy? 4915 You''re not up to the Perrys''lunch to- day, are you, Clancy?"
4915You''ve been seeing each other?
4915You''ve seen her, then?
4915You''ve seen it?
4915Your car?
4915Your stop Quaker Bridge?
4915''Oh,''I said right out flatly,''are you alone here, Carol?''
4915''Say, look- a- here,''I said,''what do you think I am-- a Pullman?''
4915''Why do n''t you and your wife come to see me, James?''
4915''Would you like us to, Mother?
4915...""You mean because Joe is divorced?"
4915A moment later she said urgently:"Warren, is n''t there a chance that I''m right about this?
4915About what was there doubt, then?
4915Aloud she said:"Millie, could n''t you lean over, and watch him a few minutes, and see what you think?"
4915Aloud, from the fulness of her own happiness, she said:"Suppose you walk down to the courts with me, Infant, and we will see what''s going on?"
4915And Kent Parmalee was engaged to Eliza Bowditch-- what did Magsie''s say?
4915And boldly she added:"Do you know who is backing this, Warren?"
4915And did he miss her?
4915And he was a loving sort of person---""Ah, was n''t he?"
4915And how''s pretty Magsie Clay?"
4915And if Rachael divorces me, what else can I do?"
4915And illness-- I never thought of it before I was ill. And jealousy--""What have you got to be jealous of?"
4915And listen-- any chance of a game tonight?
4915And that reminds me, Billy says you are coming into town early next week?"
4915And turning to the man who stood silently in the doorway she asked, with all the confidence of a weary child,"Will you take me home, Greg?"
4915And what sort of a person is she?"
4915And what was to be the outcome?
4915And what will he do?"
4915And where was he going now?
4915And why should n''t it be?"
4915Another flashing account won from the old hostess the single words"On Sunday?"
4915Any chance of you coming to lunch, Rachael?
4915Any message from Doctor Gregory?"
4915Anybody seen him?"
4915Are any other contracts to be broken with public approval?
4915Are my claims, and my sons''claims, to be swept aside because a little idle girl of Magsie''s age chooses to flirt with my husband?
4915Are you going to be warm enough?
4915Are you mad, Warren, that you can come here to our home and talk of''tangles''--and rights?
4915As she did so she wondered which one of those long, moaning breaths would be the last; when would little Derry straighten himself-- and lie still?
4915At half- past four?"
4915Billy and Katrina were playing tennis with Kent and-- who''s the red- headed child you were enslaving this afternoon, Bill?"
4915Billy does n''t know he went, I suppose?"
4915Bless me, do n''t I know the feeling myself?
4915Boys all right?"
4915Boys well this morning?"
4915But Richie"--Richie was the escorting young man--"Richie and I tease him by breaking into French now and then, do n''t we?"
4915But Ruskin, was n''t it, and Wagner-- didn''t they do something like this?
4915But do we try HARD enough?
4915But do you think you could get Joe Pickering to do it?
4915But had he seen her?
4915But he was an angel-- look at them now, are n''t they cute together?"
4915But how about a little dinner for Magsie?
4915But is there a chance that she might start on cranking?"
4915But not sleeping?"
4915But she does n''t want you and Magsie Clay to have any hold over her sons-- and can you blame her?
4915But suppose Rachael, with that baffling superiority of hers, decided not to use them?
4915But suppose we were poor, and the children needed me, and you could n''t afford a nurse-- then what?
4915But was it really a hundred and two, or ninety- eight?
4915But what then?
4915But what will you tell him?"
4915But who thinks what it means?
4915Ca n''t we-- can''t we stop it right here?
4915Can you deny that you gave me this?--and this?
4915Can you or ca n''t you manage-- between your teas and card parties-- to get someone else to put this room in order?"
4915Can you-- can you save him?"
4915Car come round?"
4915Children, you know, and-- and books, do n''t you know?
4915Clarence wants to be free as well--""Clarence does?"
4915Clarence went of course?
4915Clarence''s pride, Clarence''s child, had they been so hurt as her pride and her children were to be hurt now?
4915Could n''t you let him think that maybe if he went away and came back all well you''d-- you might-- there might be some chance for him?
4915Could that have gone on forever?
4915Could to- day''s be half as sweet?
4915Could you do that?
4915Could you manage it?
4915Daddy loves his boys, and his home, and his boys''mother, only it does n''t always occur to him that--""Are you talking for me, or for you, Mother?"
4915Did Rachael want to go with the Smiths and the Joneses to dine at the Highway, and dance afterward?
4915Did Ruddy come up and get the car to- day, for oil and gas, and so on?"
4915Did n''t she, Isabelle?"
4915Did she think it would be awfully stupid?
4915Did you ever see the water look so delicious?
4915Do I?
4915Do n''t you know there was always a sort of simplicity, a sort of bright innocence about Warren?
4915Do n''t you think it does?"
4915Do n''t you, Greg?"
4915Do we give our coats away, do we possess neither silver nor gold in our purses, do we love our neighbors?
4915Do you believe it, Greg?
4915Do you know that your son weighs fifteen pounds-- isn''t that amazing?"
4915Do you know what that means?"
4915Do you mind my smoking?"
4915Do you see her very often, James?"
4915Do you see?"
4915Do you suppose that the minute he''d had his breakfast he would go straight over to Leila''s house and make his dream a heavenly reality?
4915Do you think I am going to argue it with you, going to belittle my own position by admitting, for one second, that it is open to question?"
4915Do you think that''s so extraordinary, Aunt Rachael?
4915Do you want to pour the batter into Ma''s iron yourself?
4915Do you want to see Greg again?"
4915Do-- do you think I''m a fool, Billy?"
4915Does Warren, do you suppose?"
4915Emory?"
4915Enough to tide us over-- what?
4915For heaven''s sake, what did you do that for?"
4915George and Alice positively stated that they were going around the world in two years, and if they did, why could n''t the Gregorys go, too?
4915Girlhood?
4915Give you a divorce without any feeling whatever?"
4915Going to have your courts in order this year?"
4915Gregory?"
4915Gregory?"
4915Had Kane gone over this road yesterday?
4915Had he been crying?
4915Had he seen her?
4915Had she touched him?
4915He did n''t say where he was dining?"
4915He did not blame her, how could he blame her?
4915He is a cute little kid, is n''t he?
4915He wanted his mother to take him away, he had been calling her-- hadn''t she heard him?
4915His first question would be:"Had your lunch?"
4915His sons-- were they bathing this minute, or eagerly emptying their blue porridge bowls?
4915How about Bryan Masters?"
4915How about coming in here for a bachelor dinner Friday?
4915How are you, dearest?"
4915How are you?
4915How could laughter and courage and beauty survive it?
4915How could she help liking him?
4915How did it come to her, by what degrees?
4915How did she know he was in here?
4915How did you hear it?"
4915How do you do, Isabelle?
4915How does it sound?"
4915How does such news tell itself, from the first little chill, that is not quite fear, to the full thundering avalanche of utter horror?
4915How much time had she lost in that frightful bypath?
4915How should I?
4915How would those letters of Magsie''s read if the law got hold of them?
4915How''s Richie?"
4915I am going to tell you a hundred times a day that you are the most beautiful, and the dearest-- Oh, Rachael, Rachael, shall I tell you something?
4915I am going with them to California--""You ARE?"
4915I am sorry to ask you--""Hold him?"
4915I suppose we ought n''t to see each other as we did last summer?
4915I went to see her--""Went to see her?
4915I wonder if perhaps this place is n''t a little lonely for you?
4915I wonder"--she stared dreamily at the soft shadows in the big room--"I wonder if things are as queer to most people as they are to me?
4915I''ll learn the part, too,"said Billy kindling;"you''ll coach me in it, wo n''t you?"
4915I''m going to be different-- everything SEEMS different already--""Do n''t you know why?"
4915I''m not defending Clarence--""What are you doing, then?"
4915I''m young, I''m only twenty- eight, and what is my life?
4915I''ve seen her pretty nearly every day---""But she has n''t got any letters-- nothing like that?"
4915I-- I shall love getting gray, and feeling that you and I do n''t care so much about going places, do n''t you know?
4915I-- I wonder if you can help me out?"
4915If I must dispute the title of Magsie Clay this year, why not of Jennie Jones next year, of Polly Smith the year after that?
4915If Rachael goes West-- and I suppose she will-- shall I go up to the Villalongas''?
4915If a boy wants to kiss me, why, I say to him in perfect good faith,''Why should n''t you kiss me, John?
4915If his hosts had been merely bored by the weather, merely driven to cards, how should he be alarmed?
4915If loving counts--""Do you mean that?"
4915If she were there now, where might they be going?
4915If that was true, would Rachael be so awfully good as to ask her to go see Mrs. Haviland?
4915In all this heat?"
4915Is Isabelle going to the Bowditches''?"
4915Is he living-- where is he?"
4915Is n''t that true?"
4915Is this to be my fate?
4915Isabelle grinned silently in horrible embarrassment but Charlotte said, quick- wittedly:"How is your mother, Kenneth, and Dorothy?"
4915It was always absurd, an older man''s kindly interest in, and affection for, a pretty young girl, but what harm?
4915It was n''t until we came to this city that he begun to give way-- and what wonder?
4915It''s just possible, but I do n''t believe she would---""Well, what could she do if you simply called the whole thing off?"
4915It''s too bad, Rachael, but what can one do?
4915Look about us, Greg-- who''s happy?
4915Look here-- what are you doing?
4915Might n''t it be better simply to telephone everyone that the dance is postponed?
4915Miss Moore?
4915My head is blazing, and I believe I''ll go home--""When did you get in, and where did you have breakfast?"
4915Not easy?
4915Now what?"
4915Now, what''s nearest?
4915Of course there never was a stripey tiger like this in North America but what care I?
4915Of what was he made, this handsome, well- groomed man of forty- eight?
4915Oh, I like him, and he does do it rather well, do n''t you think?
4915Oh, you DON''T?"
4915Or would he decide that there was no hurry about it, and that he might as well rather keep away from the Buckney house until he''d made up his mind?"
4915Or, rather, having thought of her, as he undoubtedly had, why had he not found the time to cross the water and go to see her?
4915Paula?
4915Perfectly natural?
4915Perhaps Greg will run me down in the car, and bring me up again?"
4915Presently she added dubiously:"Did you ever think that another child might make a big difference to Clarence, Rachael?
4915Presently she seemed to notice his silence, for she asked abruptly:"Where''s Rachael?"
4915Pretty hard on Mrs. Breckenridge, is n''t it?"
4915Rachael interrogated him in a low tone:"Asleep, Alfred?"
4915Rachael tried in vain to understand the affair; what evil genius possessed Warren; what possessed Magsie?
4915Rachael would say, adding, before he could answer her:"We want you to notice our chic Italian socks, Doctor Gregory; how''s that for five months?
4915Rachael, do you remember our talk the night after the Berry Stokes''dinner?"
4915Remember that?"
4915Shall we go back to the house?"
4915Shall we go down?"
4915She begged him for news; Vivian had a baby?
4915She could not even leave him a note, or a word; on this eve of their meeting, were they to be parted forever?
4915She despised herself for having so simply accepted a bank account from Warren, yet what else could she do?
4915She did not waste time and tears upon a futile"Why?"
4915She had been out?
4915She had been-- what had she been doing?
4915She had flung her solemn promise aside, once; what defence could she make for a second solemn promise now?
4915She had known that she was beautiful, and that she must marry-- what else?
4915She had matches, her electric flashlight, her road maps, a flask of brandy-- what else?
4915She telephoned the kitchen; had she told Louise that Doctor Gregory might come home at midnight?
4915She told me she would not contest it--""She told you THAT?"
4915She was as willing as he was; then---""But now she''s changed her mind?"
4915She was entering the house--"Where''s my boy?"
4915She would run to the nursery the instant she arrived home, her eager,"How''s my boy?"
4915She''s had more offers now than you could shake a stick at--""She told you about them?"
4915Should she never tell him how dearly-- how dearly-- she loved him?
4915Simply drop it all?"
4915Smile with him at the new favorite''s charms, and take up her life in loneliness and neglect?
4915So if I come back before he does, what earthly difference can it make to him that I was married to Richie?"
4915So they were meeting for lunch, for tea-- where else?
4915So, said Magsie to herself, stirring her tea, that was to be her fate: Paris, America, the stage, and then a rich marriage?
4915Sure?
4915Tell me about old Lady Frothingham, is she difficult, too?
4915Tell me about yourself?"
4915That''s all that''s necessary; do you get me?"
4915That''s clear enough, is n''t it, Gertrude?"
4915The bishop?
4915The law?
4915The young, flower- crowned head, the slender, slippered feet, the youthful and appealing voice-- what weapons had she against these?
4915Then she added dryly,"How do, dear?"
4915These being facts for Rachael, what facts had Magsie?
4915They were to meet, they were to talk alone together-- what about?
4915They''re terribly nice to me; and I think Vera suspects---""What makes you think she does?"
4915To- night she called him her''bread- and- butter''--did you hear her?"
4915Truly it might be cut, but when she stood in the loose wreckage of it-- how should she use her freedom?
4915Usually she was there when he came in tired, to look up beautiful and concerned:"Something to eat, dear, or are you going to lie down?"
4915Was Mrs. Valentine there?
4915Was Warren to tire simply of his folly, Magsie to carelessly fill his place in the ranks of her admirers, Rachael to gracefully forgive and forget?
4915Was a man capable of Warren''s curious infatuation to be merely scolded and punished like a boy?
4915Was any pretty, irresponsible young woman free to set her heart upon another woman''s husband, the father of another woman''s children?
4915Was he dying, now and here?
4915Was it because of his magic lantern and his velocipede, his unending supply of cream puffs and licorice sticks, or because they liked him?
4915Was it my seeing Richie, Greg?
4915Was nothing real except the great moving sea and the arch of stars above the spring nights?
4915Was she no more than a howling baby robbed of a toy?
4915Was there never a time of serenity, of surety?
4915Was-- was anything settled?"
4915We''ll like better just being home together, wo n''t we?
4915We''re older than most people now, are n''t we?"
4915Well, the girl was in the neighborhood, of course, and had simply come in to say now do you do?
4915Well, what could they do-- at worst?
4915Well, what had he done after all?
4915Well, what was marriage anyway?
4915Well,"he finished abruptly,"suppose I go up and see Clarence?"
4915Were her love and her life no more than a string of baubles, scattered and flung about by some irresponsible hand?
4915Were the boys to go out to the Park?
4915Were the lawsuits about which one read in the papers based on no more than this?
4915Were they all crazy, to have got themselves into this hideous fix?
4915Were they changed, or was she?
4915What about Clarence?"
4915What about Jim?"
4915What about ME?"
4915What are we all going round and round in circles for, and who gets any fun out of it?
4915What are your plans?"
4915What can we do?"
4915What could one do?
4915What could one do?
4915What did he say?"
4915What did it matter?
4915What did they talk about, what did they plan or hope or expect?
4915What did you see it in?"
4915What do you know about that?
4915What do you say?"
4915What else DO I do?"
4915What fatal infection had poisoned heart and brain?
4915What had she been hearing, lately, of Magsie?
4915What is it?"
4915What is marriage, anyway-- what is parenthood?
4915What now?
4915What part does she take?"
4915What possessed you?"
4915What right has Margaret Clay compared to MY right?
4915What shall I do?"
4915What sort of a little boy had he been?
4915What sort of advice would Florence''s forty- five years be apt to give to Rachael''s twenty- eight?
4915What was definite, what facts had they upon which to build their surmises?
4915What was it doing to Warren-- to Magsie?
4915What was the secret, then, Rachael asked the fire, if youth and beauty and high hopes and great love failed like so many straws?
4915What was to be gained by coldness, by anger, by controversy?
4915What would any sane man expect her to do?
4915What would his life be if he might never see her again?
4915What''s YOUR answer, Greg-- what makes the wheels go round?"
4915When can I see you?"
4915When was our marriage that?"
4915Where are the kids?"
4915Where are we to dine?"
4915Where are you dining, Rachael?"
4915Where could we go-- Long Beach?
4915Where in the name of everything sensible is Billy?"
4915Where''s Joe?"
4915Which is right, Peter,''why should n''t it be she''or''why should n''t it be her?''
4915Who are you to judge?"
4915Who else, her friends wondered, could have cleared the social horizon for Paula Breckenridge''s daughter so effectively?
4915Who is n''t watching the future for just this or just that to happen before she can really feel content?
4915Who''s she with?"
4915Who, in all her wide range of acquaintances, would think the less of her for the obviously sensible step?
4915Why did n''t you call me?"
4915Why do n''t they leave us alone?"
4915Why do n''t you denounce us?
4915Why do n''t you shun the women in your parish who wo n''t have children as murderers?
4915Why do n''t you try Bar Harbor or one of the mountain places next year, and go about among people, and entertain a little more?"
4915Why do you do it?
4915Why had he never thought of her again until Clarence Breckenridge brought her back with him, a bride, six years later?
4915Why is it other girls are so crazy about boys, Aunt Rachael?"
4915Why is there?"
4915Why not end bondage, and taste freedom?
4915Why not end unhappiness, and try joy?
4915Why not, with all kindness, with all generous good wishes, end the long experiment?
4915Why not?--why not?--why not?
4915Why quarrel with the process?"
4915Why should n''t he go?
4915Why should n''t we?"
4915Why was Alice contented, and she, Rachael, torn by a thousand conflicting hopes and fears?
4915Why were these casual inquirers not told of Clarence, of her long endurance of neglect and shame?
4915Why, who among them all dropped Clarence on Paula''s account, or Rachael on Clarence''s?"
4915Will you come to- morrow night?''
4915Will you give Aunt Rachael a kiss?"
4915With Rachael in a cold and dangerous mood, Warren evasive, unresponsive, troubled, what was Magsie feeling and thinking?
4915Wo n''t you talk to me a little?
4915Would Clarence like to dine with this friend or that?
4915Would n''t that be better, and a long night''s sleep, than going over to Sam''s EVERY night?"
4915Would she speak to Doctor Gregory?
4915Would you have the nerve to do that?
4915Would you help me build a thatched hut, and a mud oven, and string shells in your hair, and swim way out in the green breakers with me?"
4915Yes, he was going out, unless she wanted him for something?
4915Yes, is n''t it nice?
4915Yesterday''s letter had said:"My dearest,"--had said:"Do you realize that I will see you in five weeks?"
4915You did n''t mean the letters, and the presents, and the talks we''ve had?
4915You know how I hate divorce-- no woman in the world hates it more-- but tell me, honestly, what do we gain by keeping up a life like this?
4915You know what our lives are, myself and Florence and Gardner and Clarence; is there a Commandment we do n''t break all day long and every day?
4915You wo n''t say anything about it, of course?
4915You''re going to bed promptly at nine, are n''t you, Mary-- and Gogo, too?
4915You''ve not got The Sun here?"
4915You-- won''t contest?
4915You-- won''t oppose anything?"
4915You-- you love me?"
4915Young and beautiful and clever, how had life tricked her into this deadlock, where had been the fault, and whose?
4915again nervously, before the other man said:"What do you think she will do?"
4915how about a little run up to Pelham Manor, wonderful morning-- could she go as she was?
4915perfect, but pressed down and running over, a thousand per cent., a million per cent.?"
4915she asked, with tears in her eyes;"shall you be just a little jealous?"
4915she interrupted herself to say in a child''s reproachful tone,"did n''t you mean it?"
4915to the man?
41182''Miss Winnie Wilson''? 41182 ; people of narrow:"Can we go anywhere?"
41182A definition of competition?
41182A lot of people will say it''s my fault? 41182 A man must appreciate a woman, or how can he ask her to stay with him?"
41182About the Sunday, you mean? 41182 After all, if she''d asked you right out, what would you have said?"
41182Ah, you mean she did n''t?
41182Already? 41182 Am I to say I was wrong where I know I was right?"
41182And I may have eaten off one of your plates?
41182And a woman in the second half?
41182And all you men gambled like anything, I suppose?
41182And everything just as you like, honour bright, Winnie, till-- till you saw what you wanted, do n''t you know?
41182And nothing much matters, does it?
41182And now-- will you come?
41182And she''s actually with this man Ledstone now?
41182And they''ve all been at me-- and at you about me-- in Woburn Square too, I suppose?
41182And two years is just about the dangerous time, is n''t it?
41182And we wo n''t despair of them, will we? 41182 And what did you do with yourself?"
41182And where do the officers''wives-- I suppose some of you have wives?--come in?
41182And which,asked Mrs. Lenoir,"is most like father, Hugh?"
41182And why do you call them that?
41182And why not hurt somebody? 41182 And why would n''t we?"
41182And you about yourself?
41182And you must n''t do anything that makes the life he''s bought less valuable to him either in war or peace?
41182And you think----?
41182And you wo n''t think I''m abusing him? 41182 And you?"
41182Anybody special in your eye?
41182Are we to change the law first or people first? 41182 Are you being polite?"
41182Are you being quite just?
41182Are you coming to anything to- morrow?
41182Are you entitled to settle what''s the right time-- all by yourself?
41182Are you going for a walk?
41182Are you going to grasp things in the large when you get back?
41182Are you pleading for trial trips?
41182Are you sure of that?
41182Are you the father of Mr. Godfrey Ledstone?
41182Axel Thrapston? 41182 Because, whatever his rights may be, why should I risk making him unhappy?
41182Because,Dennehy continued,"you would n''t go on from man to man, being married to each of''em for life temporarily, would you?"
41182Been doing too much?
41182Bertie? 41182 But Winnie does?"
41182But a modification? 41182 But could n''t you go so far as not to think me ridiculous?"
41182But what about the lady you were unhappy over, that evening at the station?
41182But what are you going to do?
41182But what''s to be done? 41182 But you admit that I may think differently if I like?"
41182But you would n''t mind our coming?
41182But, I say, pretty quiet here, is n''t it?
41182Ca n''t customs ever be changed?
41182Ca n''t you-- somehow-- get back to what made you like him at first? 41182 Can he make me come back?"
41182Caught you here?
41182Come with you?
41182Cyril, we''re not happy, are we?
41182Dear me, is there all that to consider?
41182Dick, how can you? 41182 Dick,"she said gently,"I hope we have n''t been chaffing you when-- when there''s something serious?"
41182Did Emily believe what you told her?
41182Did he make me happy?
41182Did n''t you hear me singing?
41182Did she see us?
41182Did you enjoy it?
41182Do n''t lots of husbands, tied up just as tight as anything or anybody can tie them, cut loose and run away just the same?
41182Do n''t want to sit down here all your life, do you?
41182Do n''t you see I must go, Winnie?
41182Do n''t you see that I''m terribly unhappy for you? 41182 Do you always leave the question to her?"
41182Do you go out somewhere every evening?
41182Do you go very far?
41182Do you have to work awfully hard?
41182Do you mean to say that the man objects to seeing any single house from his windows? 41182 Do you suppose you made your husband happy?"
41182Do you think that we influenced her-- that we stopped her?
41182Do? 41182 Does Godfrey ever talk of the people he meets besides ourselves?"
41182Does he like you very much too, Winnie?
41182Does it hurt you to talk about it?
41182Does one really know anything about a man before one marries him? 41182 Does that apply to the persecution of opinions?"
41182Eh?
41182Everybody except the Irish, you mean?
41182From what you say, I do n''t suppose you''ve come just to call on me, Miss Ledstone?
41182Going off with him to- day, are you?
41182Going to be away long?
41182Gone on but for what?
41182Got over it, have n''t you?
41182Had I? 41182 Hang the man, is he in earnest about his old Synopsis, as he calls the thing?"
41182Has a mind like yours the impudence to think for itself?
41182Has he ever mentioned Mabel Thurseley?
41182Have I got to think the officers''wives and the subalterns not ridiculous too?
41182Have they come out from dinner yet?
41182Have you forgiven me, General? 41182 Have you hinted anything about it to-- him?"
41182Have you quarrelled with him? 41182 Have you seen this one-- the 26th?"
41182He thinks me an awful reprobate?
41182He''s not coming back?
41182Hobart Gaynor? 41182 How can I be just when they''re trying to take you from me?"
41182How can she, when I told her all about it?
41182How can you be so hard?
41182How can you take it like that? 41182 How could I be expected to think of the regiment?"
41182How could either of us so much as hint that she-- that she was the least interested in our movements?
41182How could she look you in the face, mother?
41182How do you do, Miss Ledstone? 41182 How is dear old Dick Dennehy?"
41182How much do you like him?
41182How would the world get on else? 41182 I believe I once told you I had atavistic streaks?
41182I can find you some very respectable authority for that-- a good passage in Döllinger-- but, I think, do n''t you, to- morrow? 41182 I could bite my tongue out, Mrs. Ledstone-- hang it, you do n''t think I''m-- er-- what you''d call an interfering chap?
41182I do n''t know that anything need be said----"So you two valiant soldiers have decided that I had better say it?
41182I do n''t look very unhappy, do I?
41182I hope I do n''t intrude?
41182I hope I''m not wrong in thinking that you understood why I took it, when once I had made up my mind that it was permissible?
41182I hope we sometimes do wiser things than we come to do-- or what''s the good of a talk? 41182 I hope you''ll back me up-- and Mrs. Aikenhead too?"
41182I really did n''t want to make them unhappy or ashamed any more,she sighed; for had not her action in the end produced Cyril''s?
41182I say, are you making me a Prince in disguise, Winnie?
41182I say, could you think of coming with me to Monte?
41182I say, do you know what the General has had the cheek to suggest to your cousin?
41182I say, is there trouble? 41182 I should think some women might get on very well with him, though?"
41182I suppose it''s really been the same in every age with thinking people, but it''s more widespread now, is n''t it? 41182 I suppose you go a lot to the theatre, do n''t you?"
41182I suppose you see Cyril sometimes, Lady Rosaline? 41182 I suppose you''re referring to the women?
41182I suppose you''ve given him no really serious cause for complaint?
41182I think the senior class can stand a little, do n''t you, General?
41182I wonder if you know anything of what daddy-- my father-- and mother are doing-- of what''s going on at home-- in Woburn Square?
41182I would n''t have had it not happen; would you?
41182I''m afraid I startled you? 41182 If I feel like this about it, how can I dare to do it?"
41182If he was n''t much in love, he''d be rather inclined to smile over your telling him, would n''t he?
41182If you may marry again when your husband''s dead----"It''s allowed, but it''s-- it''s not exactly recommended, is it?
41182In a little more than----? 41182 In fact, rather forcibly?"
41182In fact, you''ve sold yourself right out and quite irrevocably?
41182Is anything impossible nowadays?
41182Is it a good business?
41182Is it exactly a question of what money you''ve got, Miss Winnie?
41182Is it mere chance, or something in me, or something in my position?
41182Is it so important to you to know?
41182Is it? 41182 Is n''t it rather a strange feeling, after having been so very much to one another, to be so absolutely apart now?
41182Is n''t that rather a sanguine view?
41182Is n''t that the only way bad things get altered?
41182Is n''t there even a thing called the economy of truth? 41182 Is she ready, Stephen?"
41182Is that such a terrible thing to happen to my wife?
41182Is the ordinary theory of marriage easy to live up to either?
41182Is there anybody who has influence with her-- whom she likes and relies on?
41182Is this Mrs. Godfrey Ledstone''s?
41182Is this a proposal of marriage, Bob?
41182It is horribly hard not to, is n''t it? 41182 It made none in you, did it?"
41182It might work out much the same in-- well, in conduct, might n''t it? 41182 It seems to serve as an introduction, does n''t it?"
41182It''ll be an awful facer for him, wo n''t it?
41182It''s a long drag from Christmas to Easter, is n''t it? 41182 It''s rather funny how this sort of thing pursues me, is n''t it?
41182It''s very kind-- and do n''t you like it better like this yourself?
41182Killed? 41182 Ledstone?"
41182Let''s go to a Hall?
41182Mabel Thurseley? 41182 May I come with you?"
41182May I sit down by you?
41182May n''t I talk about the thing I''m thinking about? 41182 Mere good looks do n''t go for very much in a man, do they?"
41182Mother did n''t know about the-- the sentimental reason against it, Hobart-- and it does n''t matter now, does it? 41182 Must be a rum little card-- isn''t she?"
41182Must be very pretty, or she would n''t expect you to stand it?
41182My chimneys are a pity, are n''t they? 41182 My cousin?"
41182My dear, is there any chance of that?
41182My maiden name? 41182 Need n''t have done it?
41182No time now? 41182 No, but he may think of it, I suppose?
41182No? 41182 Nobody you can think of?"
41182Not cold?
41182Not even in your retreats? 41182 Not going to bed, Amy?
41182Not like it? 41182 Now did I ask for your address, Sir Axel?"
41182Now do n''t you go back on your theories-- or really where are we?
41182Now do n''t you think it''s a ripping idea? 41182 Now why do you assume I need go alone?"
41182Now why does she call me''miss''--and who''s the General?
41182Now will I forget it-- is it likely, Winnie?
41182Of course it''ll happen, but why in heaven''s name need he tell me about it?
41182Oh, Dick, have you thought it all over, looked at every side of it-- twenty times, a hundred times, five hundred times?
41182Oh, I-- I hope she''s all right?
41182Oh, and you mean, if he did-- well, show signs-- how much ought he to be told about Miss Wilson?
41182Oh, did he? 41182 Oh, did they?
41182Oh, do you love him, or do n''t you?
41182Oh, how can I go against them? 41182 Oh, how can I tell?
41182Oh, it''s as settled as that, is it?
41182Oh, that''s it, is it?
41182Oh, what does it matter what I think?
41182Oh, why did you?
41182Oh, you accuse me of that attitude? 41182 Oh, you mean incompatibility?"
41182Or am I to gather that you have become a sceptic?
41182Or else,she laughed,"they''d never want to marry, would they?"
41182Or if you were a woman?
41182Or that I should come without him?
41182Or--he mused--"shall we to some future age seem, oh, ridiculously mixed?
41182Ought to be motherly? 41182 Pretty cheerful, Winnie?"
41182Pretty gay here, is n''t it? 41182 Prince in disguise, Alice?"
41182Private influence could be brought to bear?
41182Put my foot in it?
41182Rather-- er-- unsettling?
41182Ready for the casino, my boy?
41182Resting?
41182Shall I go back to Shaylor''s Patch to- night?
41182Shall I tell him what you''ve told me about Miss Winnie?
41182She''s forced at school, I suppose?
41182She''s told him, has she?
41182So much the worse for the woman, you''d say, I suppose?
41182So that''s the way she gets round her precious theory, is it? 41182 So you told me why I''d better not ask you?
41182So you''ve made up your mind, Winnie?
41182Stephen, how is it that this old world gets on at all, with everybody at loggerheads with everybody else?
41182Suppose he should bear me a grudge afterwards?
41182Supposing I was, or supposing I wasn''t-- what does it amount to?
41182Supposing I was?
41182That is rather a large order, is n''t it? 41182 That means that I sha n''t oppose you any more?"
41182That mine will grow into harmony with yours?
41182That part of it is done in the letters, I suppose? 41182 That''s not giving up, is it?
41182That''s what he meant; and there''s a lot in it, is n''t there, Major Merriam?
41182The fact is, you''re not very good at pretty speeches, are you? 41182 The question is-- how will mother take it?"
41182Then how am I to find out?
41182Then how did you dare to say it was n''t serious? 41182 Then why does n''t he tell you?
41182There are some people whom one likes and admires tremendously, and yet who are rather-- well, exacting, are n''t there?
41182There''s nothing else on on Wednesday, is there?
41182They''d just put me down as an ordinary-- an ordinary bad woman?
41182They''d marry, I suppose, if they could?
41182They? 41182 Those are modern views, I suppose?
41182To Cyril? 41182 To Mabel?"
41182To be slain when you''re old and weak-- what of that?
41182To let him alone? 41182 Trouble again, Winnie?"
41182Tuesday, or Tuesday twelvemonth-- what difference does it make?
41182Walking my way?
41182Was n''t that the spread of toleration?
41182We girls get into the way of thinking that bachelors are always gay, but I suppose they''re not?
41182We must all of us settle that for ourselves in the end, must n''t we? 41182 We must bear our infirmities with patience, must n''t we?"
41182Well, I ca n''t claim to know much about it, but do n''t some queer people come?
41182Well, I mean, anybody else-- er-- making friction?
41182Well, Miss Wilson, are you all ready for the voyage? 41182 Well, Miss Wilson?"
41182Well, Tora?
41182Well, do n''t you feel like a Prince now?
41182Well, do you think I should prefer this empty tomb?
41182Well, if I want to impress the gallery, old Dennehy''s rather a useful partner to have, is n''t he? 41182 Well, if the seniors want to take it easy, we could do them together, could n''t we, Miss Wilson?"
41182Well, is n''t he?
41182Well, it''s not possible at present, is it?
41182Well, let''s go home, anyhow-- shall we? 41182 Well, she''d naturally wait for a lead, would n''t she?"
41182Well, there are other women in the world, are n''t there?
41182Well, what did I say in Paris after all? 41182 Well, what have you been doing then?"
41182Well, what is it to be, Amy?
41182Well, what the deuce are you to do?
41182Well, where''s everybody? 41182 Well, who''d look at me, anyhow?"
41182Well, why should n''t I tell you?
41182Well, would you like the story of the Princess with the Broken Heart?
41182Well, you have n''t made exactly a success of it, have you?
41182Well, you need n''t have shaken hands with me if you had n''t wanted to, need you? 41182 Well-- er-- old Godfrey would n''t object, would he?"
41182Well-- er-- you ca n''t marry, can you, Winnie?
41182Well?
41182Well?
41182Were you in love with somebody else?
41182What about her then?
41182What about----?
41182What aged man?
41182What am I to call you, then?
41182What am I to do?
41182What am I to tell him to say?
41182What did Mr. Attlebury say?
41182What do you mean by things being in solution-- or in a flux?
41182What do you mean?
41182What do you take me for? 41182 What do you think you''re doing?"
41182What does Mabel think?
41182What does it show, Dick?
41182What else could we do? 41182 What if it did?
41182What would you do?
41182What would you say, Clara, if two handsome young officers turned up at Madeira, for a few days anyhow? 41182 What''s come over the house?"
41182What''s my opinion worth? 41182 What''s the good of asking me, Godfrey?
41182What''s the good of defying the world?
41182What, fall in love, or give way to it?
41182What?
41182When did you say you were off?
41182Where are the thirds?
41182Where will you go-- if you do go?
41182Where''s Bertie?
41182Which?
41182Who is he? 41182 Who is he?"
41182Who is she? 41182 Who knows what''ll happen three years hence?"
41182Who''d look at me, anyhow?
41182Who''d look at me, anyhow?
41182Who''s inconsolable in London?
41182Who''s the General? 41182 Whose turn?"
41182Why are n''t they?
41182Why are we to talk of Cyril when I''ve just begun my holiday?
41182Why do you take a pleasure in making me unhappy?
41182Why do you try to make me look ridiculous, and feel as if I''d done something ungentlemanly? 41182 Why is he to poke his nose into my affairs?"
41182Why is it our business?
41182Why not go the whole hog, and think it the only proper thing to do?
41182Why not? 41182 Why not?"
41182Why not?
41182Why should I? 41182 Why should Mrs. Lenoir be any judge of a case like mine?"
41182Why should n''t I?
41182Why should n''t she?
41182Why will you go on talking about me?
41182Why, where are you off to? 41182 Why?"
41182Will he come without her?
41182Will he like me?
41182Will it?
41182Will people understand?
41182Will she care about seeing me?
41182Will she care to be called Winnie?
41182Will she come, or will she kick me out?
41182Will you forgive me if I take her away for three or four weeks?
41182Will you?
41182Winnie could n''t stand it, but, as you say, perhaps a wiser woman----"Could n''t stand what?
41182With Thrapston, for instance?
41182Wo n''t coming back convey it?
41182Would it be good enough for her, now?
41182Would it be good for the regiment?
41182Would n''t Tora help you better than I could?
41182Would n''t Tora object?
41182Would n''t it be fair to tell him before he got much in love?
41182Would n''t it make gossip, and perhaps raise awkward questions, if we-- well, if we arranged anything definitely now-- before the time''s up?
41182Would n''t things get rather-- well, chaotic-- under that system?
41182Would n''t your ideas be considered rather eccentric?
41182Would you be walking with me in the meadow a bit, by chance?
41182Would you be with me if you could? 41182 Would you choose the wrong time to tell the truth to anybody?"
41182Would you go a little further-- do something rather harder? 41182 Wrongheaded still?"
41182Yes, but what''s going to happen to you?
41182Yes, er-- how are you?
41182Yes, my dear Clara? 41182 Yes, they throw a light back, do n''t they?"
41182Yes?
41182You could n''t send me away now, could you, Winnie?
41182You did n''t expect to stop it, all on your own, did you?
41182You do n''t mind being thought a reprobate down here?
41182You liked it, Alice?
41182You mean it would be different if you had to work for your living?
41182You mean she might go back? 41182 You mean that-- it''s happening?"
41182You mean the less I talk about it, the better?
41182You mean-- that I should come alone? 41182 You mean-- you wo n''t do it?"
41182You mean----?
41182You must know that it was for your sake that I took the step I did?
41182You slept well?
41182You think he''s not appreciative enough about the house, do n''t you, Tora?
41182You think it''s that?
41182You wanted to tell her? 41182 You were very fond of him once, were n''t you?"
41182You wo n''t turn against me, anyhow, will you, Hobart?
41182You wo n''t?
41182You wo n''t?
41182You''re against me, though, are n''t you?
41182You''re married or you''re not-- eh?
41182You''re master in your own house, I suppose? 41182 You''re still against me?"
41182You''re sure they ca n''t make me go back?
41182You''ve a cold?
41182You''ve had your tea, Clara? 41182 You''ve no grudge against me?"
41182You''ve not come from Godfrey? 41182 You?"
41182Your chimneys? 41182 ''Do we Believe?'' 41182 ''Is Marriage a Failure?'' 41182 ''What had made him do it?'' 41182 ( Within the limits of the criminal law, of course, but why be a criminal if you have enough to live upon? 41182 A moment later she heard a cheery voice asking,Mrs. Ledstone at home?"
41182A pleasant passing flirtation perhaps-- and why not?
41182A thing that is subversively immoral must be worse, surely, than a thing that is merely immoral?
41182A woman who rebelled against the law-- ought not her case against it to be heard?
41182A.M.D.G.?
41182Above all, somebody like Cyril-- only a woman?
41182Accept forgiveness?"
41182Afraid of the big world-- lest they should come into collision with that and be shattered to miserable atoms?
41182After all, is it not the students who really set the line of advance?
41182After all, there are different-- well, ideas-- on that sort of subject, are n''t there?"
41182Again, why-- to him-- should it not?
41182And Aunt Lena-- and the Winfreys?
41182And I''ve got to go back home, where they''ll be----"Winnie supplied the word--"Jubilant?
41182And even when the latter process has come about, there is the question-- will you shore the building up or will you pull it down?
41182And for Mabel Thurseley?
41182And how does the bad luck come in here?"
41182And if she spoke of or hinted at trouble, might it not seem to be in some sense like imputing a responsibility to her hosts?
41182And if there''s anything I can do for you, you wo n''t hesitate to let me know, will you?"
41182And if they didn''t-- well, what opinion must they hold about you?
41182And is it fair?
41182And so he is married all right-- don''t you know?
41182And so she''s not good enough for him, is n''t she?"
41182And to call yourself-- or me-- a fool?"
41182And to work actively for Winnie was surely a fearful responsibility, however strongly she might pity her?
41182And was not Hobart himself a prospective husband?
41182And what are you chuckling at, Stephen?"
41182And what are you going to do next?"
41182And what effect would that opinion have?
41182And with whom did he think of"doing a theatre"on Friday night?
41182And would even that serve the turn?
41182And you remember I came home and told you there were to be no proceedings?
41182And you wo n''t be ashamed of me, will you?"
41182And you''ll put up with my company for his sake?"
41182And you?"
41182And-- no-- how could I hate your father and mother?
41182Any use I am, any joy I have-- am I to turn tail?
41182Anybody dependent on you?"
41182Anyhow, what do any of them really know about it?
41182Anything at all?"
41182Are insignificant atoms to flout them?
41182Are you going in?"
41182Are you sorry you ever went in for it?"
41182Are you staying long?"
41182Are you sure you have n''t misunderstood?
41182As a matter of fact, for the last hour or so-- how late is it?
41182As friends of his-- well, what''s the right thing towards him?"
41182At any rate, not too much?"
41182At least you''ll admit it''s a serious step?"
41182Because how is it right?
41182Because what prevents me from changing my mind in the next six months-- even if you make me say''Yes''to you now?"
41182Because, if both orthodoxy and unorthodoxy go wrong, what is a poor human woman to do?
41182Braver than he was himself?
41182But Godfrey?
41182But am I sure?
41182But could he get out of the hole he was in without brutality, without insulting her?
41182But have you really anything you''re trying to say?"
41182But here''s my life-- am I to be afraid of it?
41182But his abrupt curt answer about his prospects--"I have none"----?
41182But how should this chance be regarded?
41182But if Attlebury tried to extort a forced obedience?
41182But if he strikes the first cheek very hard?
41182But if he were ashamed and ran away, how could she love?
41182But might n''t you tell her you ca n''t?
41182But the other altogether?
41182But then, is n''t there-- room for doubt?"
41182But then-- why come here, Miss Ledstone?"
41182But there was the line of division-- a fixed line surely, if anything was fixed?
41182But was peril the right word-- was it the word proper to use at Shaylor''s Patch?
41182But what about him-- while it lasts, I mean?"
41182But what are you going to do?"
41182But what can a fellow do?
41182But what''s to be done?"
41182But who are the strong?
41182But why must I give up my liberty long before-- well, long before I can get anything instead of it?"
41182But with"potentialities"?
41182But you asked whether I wanted to stay here; that was like suggesting I should go somewhere else, was n''t it?
41182But you need n''t be a sneak to both of them, need you?"
41182But you probably thought that the institution might chuck in a little more of that ingredient incidentally?"
41182But you would n''t have made a bargain like that?"
41182But, in justice to Bertie, we must remember that to him it''s a great-- a great----""A great what?"
41182But-- are you?"
41182But-- could I tell him anything different?
41182But-- without me?"
41182By being disagreeable to him?
41182CHAPTER XII CHRISTMAS IN WOBURN SQUARE When holiday seasons approach, people of ample means ask:"Where shall we go?
41182CHAPTER XXI IS HE A BULLY?
41182Ca n''t you have an explanation?"
41182Can I do what I like?"
41182Can I say what I like?
41182Can he prevent my going if I want to?"
41182Cave in, and go back?"
41182Charming?
41182Could Lady Rosaline unbosom herself plainly to Mrs. Maxon?
41182Could Winnie, his confidante, doubt what was in his mind?
41182Could even she answer to any purpose?
41182Could he decline, after his first proposal?
41182Could heaven and he conjoined succumb to any onslaught?
41182Could she hurl defiance at these great allies?
41182Could there have been a difficulty more tremendous than Cyril Maxon?
41182Could they change the natural man in Maxon and avail against his original sin?
41182Could they, in the end, fail to move her?
41182Could you give me a few-- I do n''t want a thousand and one, but a few-- instances of''inkpat''?"
41182Dare she walk into that strangely silent room-- and let them bolt and bar the door on her?
41182Dick bore them in view to the full limit of his purse-- and how could Winnie refuse a friendly opinion on questions of taste?
41182Did he not want to go on hunting as long as possible?
41182Did he really mean persuade-- or did he mean frighten?
41182Did n''t God make me just as much as He made Cyril?"
41182Did n''t I love you once?"
41182Did n''t you write any of the letters?"
41182Did she tell you anything else?"
41182Did you come here to do that?"
41182Did you ever hear of her?"
41182Did you often look at Mrs. Maxon like that?
41182Do I tell the truth about the history?
41182Do n''t I hold my billet only till a better man can turn me out?"
41182Do n''t you care about going alone?"
41182Do you ever see the sons?"
41182Do you ever take-- ladies?"
41182Do you know, your name''s never mentioned at home-- never-- not even when we''re alone?"
41182Do you mean to say he dislikes you?"
41182Do you mind my saying that?"
41182Do you see what I mean?
41182Do you see?"
41182Do you think it funny that I should suddenly propose myself for a visit?"
41182Do you understand what I mean?"
41182Does an hour''s journey on a mild morning frighten a strong man if he really wants to go?
41182Does she now?
41182Does the amenity of the road make no difference?
41182Elder- sisterly?"
41182For ever?
41182For if fencing can accord permission, it can surely also refuse it?
41182For the moment nothing could be done; why then fret and worry about what to do?
41182For what?
41182Forgiveness in case there might be anything for her to forgive?"
41182Friend of yours?
41182From your own side of the matter, is it altogether a bad thing that a man should have to search his heart-- to ask what you''re really worth to him?"
41182Godfrey would have passed by with a nod and a''How are you?''
41182Good gracious, is there anything tremendous coming?"
41182Had n''t she at least a right to a hearing?
41182Had they both rights?
41182Hallo, Godfrey, you back?"
41182Has he been here?
41182Has there been a row?"
41182Have n''t we had enough of it?"
41182Have n''t you found it so?"
41182Have you anything else to suggest?"
41182Have you met a Sir Axel Thrapston at Rosaline''s?"
41182Have you nothing to say?
41182Have you seen her lately?"
41182Have you seen the_ Times_?"
41182He added, after the briefest pause,"Or from my father?"
41182He broke out against Winnie in a feeble peevishness:"Why did she make me do it?
41182He declared that he had a promise from her, and that on the faith of it, and of it alone, he-- well, you know, do n''t you?
41182He had a lot of friends of a sort; but how much did he care for them, or they for him?
41182He had just shaken hands and put on his hat, when he exclaimed in a surprised tone,"Hullo, who''s that?"
41182He leant forward towards her and asked,"You do n''t condemn me?"
41182He was silent for a moment, and then asked abruptly,"And what prospects have you?"
41182He wo n''t be back yet, will he?"
41182Heavens, my boy, who am I to be hard on her?"
41182Her terror must surely make an appeal irresistible alike to the ardour and to the chivalry of her lover?
41182Her?
41182Here was a man, naturally ardent, essentially sanguine, in despair-- surely about a woman?
41182Here was he, the busiest of men, painfully contriving a spare hour; was he to spend it in three- cornered trivial talk?
41182His speculations might ask, with''jesting Pilate,''''What is truth?''
41182Hobart, will you tell Cyril that I''m very, very sorry, and that I hope he''ll be happy, and wish him splendid success and prosperity?"
41182Hope a better law will make better people, or tell the people they ca n''t have a better law till they''re better themselves?"
41182How can I be somebody else?
41182How can I help it?"
41182How can they judge of their prowess until they are in the thick of the fray?
41182How can you expect me to talk about it?"
41182How could I be, after it all?
41182How could she describe that to Amy Ledstone?
41182How could the old change their ideas of right?
41182How dare you?"
41182How do you do, Mrs. Maxon?
41182How long do you want to be away?"
41182How much candour was at the moment requisite?
41182How much had she and Mrs. Lenoir between them contributed to the settlement?
41182How much money does he make?"
41182How pretty was Mrs. Maxon, how smart?
41182How should n''t you behave yourself properly when you do n''t believe that penitence can do you any good?"
41182How was he settling that question of his?
41182How were they flourishing?"
41182Human nature, Winnie, Lady Rosaline Deering-- little as she either had meant to do anything unkind to the household in Woburn Square?
41182I ca n''t teach her what I ca n''t believe, but why should n''t she learn it from people who can?
41182I do n''t speak of your position-- that would be for you to consider-- but what effect would it have on my position and my influence?"
41182I hope you''ll tell me if you''d rather not talk?"
41182I hope you-- er-- won''t feel it necessary to have too long a memory, Winnie?"
41182I say, what made you think that?"
41182I say, what price poor old Godfrey-- with a chill at Woburn Square, while we''re having an evening out?"
41182I say, you wo n''t cut me now, will you?"
41182I say, you''re not going to-- to give me away to Mabel, are you?"
41182I should n''t know anything about them, should I?"
41182I should think his ideas are what you might call----""Shall we say traditional-- so as to be quite impartial towards the Major?"
41182I suppose I''ve been awfully unkind to you?"
41182I think she''s somehow changed; do n''t you, Mrs. Ladd?
41182I thought you-- of all people----How in the world did you come to go and see her?
41182I''ll tell you the truth before I go-- or sha n''t I?
41182I''m an opinion myself, you say-- just as bad as they are?
41182I''m sent to Coventry, I suppose?"
41182IS HE A BULLY?
41182If Godfrey''s jealousy helped to that end, why was it illegitimate to let it play its part?
41182If I come to grief again"--her voice shook for an instant--"you''ll give me a shed to lie in here, wo n''t you, Stephen?"
41182If I''m a failure, Shaylor''s Patch will do later, wo n''t it?"
41182If he forces you to go a mile with him, will you go with him twain?
41182If he takes your coat, shall he take your cloak also?
41182If his intellect could bend the knee, was hers to be defiant?
41182If she did, could she look for anything save utter and immediate defeat?
41182If she had not refused him?
41182If she had with Godfrey Ledstone-- not much of a chap after all!--why should n''t she with somebody else?
41182If she went wrong, might n''t you feel that some effort of yours would-- well, have made the difference?"
41182If wrong there were, surely the substantial wrong lay in deserting him, not in making the best of her own life afterwards?
41182If you wanted to do a thing very much, could n''t you always contrive to think that it was one of the things that did n''t matter?"
41182If you were Godfrey, would you leave me-- now?"
41182Indeed, whom did he care about really, or who really cared about him?
41182Is Maxon?"
41182Is he all right?"
41182Is it even a fair start, Dick?"
41182Is it made only for sinners-- or only for wives?
41182Is it really convenient?"
41182Is it terrible that I do n''t go to church very often?
41182Is n''t it better to get rid of brutes and curs anyhow?
41182Is n''t it lovely here?"
41182Is n''t it rather-- well, rather late in the day for that?
41182Is that enough, Major Merriam?"
41182Is that fair, unless I''m bang sure?
41182Is that satisfactory, my lord?"
41182Is that unfair?
41182Is there anything at all to choose between us, Hugh-- between you men and us women?
41182Is there nothing in between?"
41182It had been matter of conscience as well as matter of pride; when the two join forces, what is left to fight them?
41182It is a"shock to credit"--credit of some kind-- and how are any of us to get on without credit?
41182It was a happy idea of mine, was n''t it?
41182It''d kill you, would n''t it?"
41182It''ll be a relief to you if she settles down all right, wo n''t it?"
41182It''s for Mrs. Lenoir to decide, is n''t it?"
41182It''s full of divorced people, is n''t it?"
41182It''s what a chap feels in the end, is n''t it?
41182Just to bask in the sun, you know?"
41182Ladd?"
41182Ladd?"
41182Ledstone-- guessed?"
41182Ledstone?"
41182Ledstone?"
41182Ledstone?"
41182Ledstone?"
41182Lenoir?"
41182Lenoir?"
41182Lenoir?"
41182Lenoir?"
41182Lenoir?"
41182Lenoir?"
41182Life with Winnie-- was that being settled, tranquil, serene, ready to look anybody in the face?
41182Maxon?"
41182Maxon?"
41182Maxon?"
41182Maxon?"
41182Maxon?"
41182Maxon?"
41182May I come and see you soon?"
41182May I sit down by you?"
41182May I sit down here?
41182May I-- er-- introduce you to my friend, Mr. Purnett?
41182May women leave their husbands merely because they have come not to like them?
41182Might n''t you run up for the day?"
41182Might they have recognized that they were not giving quite such fair treatment as was being accorded to them?
41182Miserable offenders?
41182Must every one then be either a slave or a solitary?
41182Must you go, Bob?
41182Nearly a week off, though, is n''t it?"
41182Need you repeat it?"
41182No difference to a man like Godfrey Ledstone, whom he knew so well?
41182Not Cyril Maxon, surely?
41182Not the same thing-- surely?"
41182Not when every fibre of a man''s heart, every impulse of a man''s courage, cried out for it?
41182Now Mrs. Maxon did not appear to possess one single fact of this order-- or surely she would have been eager to produce it?
41182Now are you content?"
41182Now shall I try what I can do?"
41182Now who-- who, I ask you-- would give a fig for a President in disguise?
41182Now you''re not going to worry about your share of the wine again?"
41182O Lord, how can I talk about it, even to you?"
41182O''Leary?"
41182Of course he does n''t know that you''ve ever seen Rosaline since-- since the old days-- much less that you had anything to do with it?"
41182Of what should she be afraid in such a mood, of what ashamed?
41182Oh, is it quite impossible that, if I tried, I might-- make you miserable?"
41182Oh, not Godfrey?"
41182On what conceivable theory had that Ledstone family any right to pledges from him?
41182One thing more-- have you told anybody about this idea?"
41182Only''perhaps''?
41182Or can the argument from insignificance be turned, and the rebel plead that he is so small that it does not matter what he does?
41182Or had her resolve shaken him into any questionings?
41182Or have you snubbed him hopelessly?"
41182Or how had he settled it?
41182Or might a question of ethics like that be to some extent"in solution"?
41182Or was it in effect a dissent-- a reception of the suggestion profoundly sceptical, almost scornful?
41182Or will men go on for ever swirling round and round in a whirlpool, and never sail on a clear strong stream to the ocean of truth?"
41182Perhaps I could do it still-- I wonder?"
41182Perhaps-- God knows-- we''re fighting for her soul, Cyril, and we shall be asked how we''ve borne ourselves in the fight, sha n''t we?"
41182Permanently?
41182Pleading with his wife, it must be supposed; giving wise counsel to the young man perhaps?
41182Promises should be kept; but should they not also be reasonably interpreted, especially when they have been exacted from such doubtful motives?
41182Prove me wrong, convince me if you can, but why make me uncomfortable?"
41182Purnett?"
41182Quite soon again, is n''t it?
41182Rather a desperate attempt at striking a balance between nature and civilization?
41182Rather a queer way for the world to live?
41182Rather your own case, is n''t it, Stephen?
41182Respect for his convictions?
41182Rocks make hard beds, you say?
41182See the idea?
41182Shall I wire Gaynor to come?"
41182Shall we ever meet again, I wonder?"
41182She could hide herself-- but could she?
41182She had accepted the sacrifice of his conscience; was she now to refuse to answer his prayer?
41182She is your cousin, is n''t she?"
41182She might have children-- would they suffer?
41182She saw the sincerity and met it with a plump"Why?"
41182She thinks I''ve done all the harm?
41182She would be wronging her husband?
41182She would wound other people''s convictions and feelings?
41182Should she-- could she-- question the one person who might give it a pertinent answer?
41182Since there were to be no proceedings, need the good woman have been told at all?
41182So you let the cat out of the bag?"
41182Stephen asked,"Well, so long as your friends do?"
41182Still, could a good woman let herself be fallen in love with under something like false pretences?"
41182Still, in the general interest of things----""I must be tortured all my life?"
41182Supposing she had?
41182Surely everybody can say what they like nowadays?"
41182Surely he and Winnie could enjoy themselves?
41182Surely he would not, could not, do it like this?
41182Surely it makes us friends for always that our lips have met like that?"
41182Surely she might play about a little?
41182Take it as you say then-- are you looking forward to your martyrdom?"
41182Tell all the truth you can, wo n''t you?"
41182Tell me how the chestnut mare shapes?"
41182That I''m unreasonable, and all in the wrong?"
41182That is, would Winnie''s experience and opinion be any guide to Lady Rosaline in settling her own problem?
41182That surely is a close time?
41182The board on which he stretched his drawing- paper-- what had become of that?
41182The entanglement, or the lamentable state of affairs-- or what?
41182The main point was--''Here''s a friendly human being; in what way am I required by the situation to treat him?''
41182The man she loved had done the thing she could not forgive-- did she love him?
41182Then I give in-- but, of course, I do n''t observe them all, or what fun would it be next year?
41182Then you''ve refused him, have you?"
41182There are people you fear to meet, from one reason or another, in London, are n''t there?
41182There was the dogma-- but should there be no dispensation?
41182They must n''t flirt with the subalterns?
41182They spoil the impression of solitude-- of being alone with nature-- don''t they?
41182They were making a fuss; now what in heaven''s name was there to make a fuss about?
41182Till death did them part?
41182To Hobart she seemed to add,"Why need you come and disturb it?"
41182To chatter in public was one thing, to consult two or three good friends surely another?
41182To the Ledstones?
41182To whom was the Institution obnoxious?
41182Tora-- uncompromising, level- headed-- answered that most of them would not even try to, and added,"What matter?"
41182Was conversation to be banned and censored?
41182Was he quite sane?
41182Was heaven as well as this great world to be marshalled against her, a poor little creature asking only to be free?
41182Was it a genuine assent, or merely a civil dismissal of the question, as one of no moment to the person interrogated?
41182Was it to her or to himself that Dick Dennehy had applied the epithet?
41182Was it too late to do it now?
41182Was it, she wondered, the Shaylor''s Patch view?
41182Was not he, in his turn, entitled to avail himself of the doctrine of the limits of human endurance?
41182Was not that making it an empty sterile thing?
41182Was poor Dick Dennehy really hard hit?
41182Was she really equal to a fight with that?
41182Was that all that freedom meant?
41182Was that state of things to last for ever?
41182Was that true-- or was it the judgment of the maiden sister, who thought that love was dependent on esteem?
41182Was there any suspicion among her friends, any at Shaylor''s Patch?
41182Was there no justice in the world-- nor even any charity?
41182We ca n''t be on in court yet?"
41182We neither of us mind, do we, Winnie?"
41182We say nothing against it, but how could we force her?"
41182We''re all looking forward to it; are n''t we, Major?
41182Well, then, would she hurt herself?
41182Well, what else should it be?
41182Were they of much more practical value than what godfathers and godmothers promise and vow at a baby''s christening?
41182What I felt seems pretty well indicated by what I did, does n''t it, Lady Rosaline?
41182What about Wilson?
41182What about his own?
41182What am I called?
41182What am I to say to Mrs. Ledstone and my daughter?"
41182What am I to think?
41182What are we to do?
41182What could you know?
41182What did Rosaline mean to do?
41182What did it matter?
41182What did you think of him, daddy?"
41182What do I believe?
41182What do I know about it?
41182What do you make of life, anyhow, unless it''s a fight?
41182What do you think, Amy?
41182What does it matter?
41182What else was there for Winnie to say-- with Mrs. Ledstone not strong and really seriously upset?
41182What else was to be expected from him-- from him who liked her so much and disapproved of her''goings- on''so strenuously?
41182What else would it be showing?"
41182What for?
41182What had driven her to it?
41182What happens if Master Godfrey runs away from you?"
41182What harm in that?
41182What have you against it?"
41182What in the world do you mean?"
41182What manner of woman was this Mrs. Maxon?
41182What matter?
41182What might n''t have happened?"
41182What of little Alice during all this?
41182What of that?
41182What reason was there to suppose that Bertie would fall in love?
41182What remained, then, to combat his profound distaste and disapproval for all she now advanced, her claims, pretensions, and grievances?
41182What shall we do, Rosaline?
41182What then, as Hobart Gaynor asked, was she going to do?
41182What was he going to say?
41182What was your name?"
41182What woman would weep for such a man as that-- except his mother?
41182What would Cyril think of it?
41182What''ll Mrs. Thurseley think?
41182What''ll your Uncle Martin say?
41182What''s the good of it?"
41182What''s the good of that, even to you?
41182What''s the man done that he had n''t a right to do on your own showing?
41182What''s the matter with that?"
41182What, is Maxon----?"
41182When do you go?"
41182When may I come?"
41182When?"
41182Where does it leave me?
41182Where from?"
41182Where''s Godfrey?
41182Which is it to be, Amy?"
41182Which?"
41182While things are, as I said, in solution-- in a sort of flux, do n''t you know?"
41182Who dares enter an unqualified''Not Guilty''before High Heaven''s Court?
41182Who has not read it a score of times in the newspapers?
41182Who hurled it?
41182Who is she?"
41182Who really knows anything about a man until she is married to him?
41182Who really objected to it, or questioned it?
41182Who should she be?
41182Who will you be?"
41182Who''s the General?"
41182Who?"
41182Whom would it offend?
41182Whom would it wrong?
41182Why am I, a candid inquirer, to be made uncomfortable?
41182Why are we to be afraid?"
41182Why did Maxon first refuse, and then take back his refusal?
41182Why did Winnie cross the line, and then want to cross back again?
41182Why did the two things rend him asunder, like wild horses?
41182Why did you do it?
41182Why did you make everything impossible either way?
41182Why go over it again?
41182Why is that worse?"
41182Why must he with his own hands adjust a lifelong millstone round his own neck?
41182Why need her chosen friends be bound to the use of it?
41182Why not stay in London, do a good turn at work, and see some more of his people in Woburn Square?
41182Why not then for that greater regiment, the world?
41182Why not?
41182Why not?
41182Why not?
41182Why should he-- or why should you?
41182Why should n''t you?"
41182Why should she not put her case in general terms, as an imaginary instance, hypothetically?
41182Why should she, she would have asked, merely because hers were new, while his were old?
41182Why should you want to?
41182Why, for five whole years, had she not seen that the door was open and walked out of it?
41182Wigram?"
41182Wigram?"
41182Wigram?"
41182Will they have settled things?
41182Will they have straightened out the moral and social world as the scientific fellows are straightening out the physical universe?
41182Will you be at dinner?"
41182Will you let me put the thing before you frankly-- since we''re to part, probably for good, to- morrow?"
41182Will you say good- bye to me?
41182Will you send her a reminder to- morrow morning?"
41182Winnie Maxon told me who you were, and you''ve been talking to her, have n''t you?"
41182Winnie ventured a meek question:"The other party?"
41182Winnie?"
41182With what mind would Mrs. Lenoir-- and Miss Wilson-- have overheard the conversation?
41182With you?"
41182Wo n''t it be what you call fatigue duty?"
41182Wo n''t you sit down?"
41182Would Cyril Maxon ever make such a concession-- or let somebody make it for him?
41182Would he, even though a Celt, have felt that anxiety quite so keenly, if another and hopeless affection had been dominating his mind?
41182Would it be very wrong?
41182Would n''t it be fair?
41182Would she be less resolved now that she had tasted it?
41182Would she laugh at the Major''s, if he made one?
41182Would there be no danger of a new Giant coming into being, born of a union of all of them, just as despotic, just as lethargic, as the old?
41182Would they quarrel among themselves, these children of progress?
41182Would you and Monte Carlo wait for me?"
41182Would you, Amy?
41182Yes?"
41182Yet could she betray her benefactress?
