23492is not this splendid?"
23492nonsense,"cried the captain;"what in the world_ can_ it be?"
23492where are you bound for?"
18391And wherefore did you kill him?
18391And will you always continue to be Kapik?
18391Art thou Tuglavina?
18391But when you think we will kill the Kablunat, and take their boats and their goods, are not these bad thoughts?
18391Do you not know me?
18391Greatly perplexed at this discourse, the savages made him repeat it again and again, saying to each other,''saog?'' 18391 Have you ever,"said he,"any bad thoughts?"
18391How, not return, what makes you say so?
18391That gladdens my heart,said Drachart;"but how shall we buy the land?
18391Then, dear men, when you speak thus, do you in your hearts really think so?
18391Well,replied the missionary,"we will go; but if the king asks, what has Karpik learned?
18391What is it? 18391 Where is he lost?
18391Would you not then wish to be delivered from your bad thoughts, words, and actions?
18391''Are you a teacher?''
18391''Are you an Angekok?''
18391And will you keep to the words you have now said to me?"
18391Another asked me, if he believed in this Creator, if he would be more successful in his business?
18391Another asked,''Where is he?''
18391At this signal, the people began to sing, and to ask one another, what does Torngak say?
18391But how is it that we have so long heard of him, and he is but just now become precious to us?"
18391But how is this?
18391Haven, with a grave aspect looking him in the face, asked,"What do you want here, Kablunat?"
18391He asked us several questions-- First, What means we had used to civilize such rude and savage men?
18391He was met at the door by another missionary who, seeing his wild appearance, asked him,"Will you never change your life-- never be converted?"
18391Henceforth I could not bear to be separated from my teachers, for I think thus-- Why was Jesus crucified and put to death?
18391I have behaved very bad, and am grieved on that account; but what shall I do?
18391In these cases it always occurs to me, how would the Saviour have acted with such persons?
18391Jans answered and said--"What shall I say?
18391Jesus, I have heard that thou camest to save the wicked-- is that true?
18391Kassigiak then asked,"Whether Jesus could make good weather?"
18391Kohlmeister now asked him affectionately who told him that he was so wicked and must be lost?
18391Kohlmeister, who thought some accident had befallen him, turned round in an indifferent manner and asked him what is your name?
18391One of them asked if God dwelt in the sun?
18391The king has fine clothes, and knows God as well as you, and why should not I?
18391The lady was then asked if they might hope for good weather, and if the whale would be driven away?
18391The missionary then asked him, whether he sincerely resolved to amend his life?
18391The tent was soon crowded with people, who frequently asked them if they were not afraid?
18391They asked me if I really intended to come again next year?
18391When Tuglavina touched at Hopedale, being asked,"Where is Moses?"
18391Will you,"continued he,"tell your families what you have now heard, as well as what you have now said?
18391[ H]"Wilt thou go away then and be quiet?"
18391can he read, or write, or is he acquainted with the God in heaven?
18391is he gone over the sea?"
18391what do you want?"
18391what does he say?
18391what is that?
18391what shall I say?
28932Are there any dogs here? 28932 Are there dogs here?"
28932Are you going away?
28932Are you not going to murder me, too?
28932Have you a piece of sole- leather?
28932How did you get across?
28932How do you stretch your hind legs at a gallop?
28932May I come and visit you in the Moon?
28932Now where is that guillemot, I wonder?
28932Oho, so you saw my eyes? 28932 What are you weeping for?"
28932What for?
28932What was her name?
28932Where are you going?
28932Where did you get that tow- line?
28932Where have you been?
28932Who can it be that is so strong?
28932Who has said that?
28932Who is to look after him?
28932Why are you here alone?
28932Why?
28932Will you have seal meat?
28932A little after, he caught sight of his dead brother, and then his mother said:"Why do you wish to return to earth again?
28932An eagle, perhaps?
28932And again they asked:"Where is it?
28932And again they asked:"Where is it?"
28932And at last Atdlarneq asked:"Why do you keep going out like that?"
28932And at last a monster came up out of the sea; a monster in the shape of a dog, and said:"Why are you sewing, you who are still in mourning?"
28932And every time there was a spirit calling, and he went in, the wizard would say:"Ho, what are you doing here, you who have no wife?"
28932And he had hardly told her this, when the old man, whom he had thought asleep, said:"What is that you are saying?"
28932And she, thinking that both wished to have her to wife, cried out:"Which is it to be?
28932And the people inside asked the child:"What would you like to eat?"
28932And they asked him:"Do you live here all alone?"
28932And to the other he said:"And you perhaps would like a whale?
28932And when he had thus been out one day as usual, without catching anything, he said to himself again:"What is the use of my staying out here?"
28932And when that was done, the other said again:"Will you not put it a little to the other side?"
28932And when then he reached the land, she said:"What has happened to you now?"
28932And where was his wife?
28932As she sat there weeping, a raven came up to her and asked:"Why are you weeping?"
28932As soon as she had come home, her husband rowed up to the old one, and asked:"Did you not go to my wife to- day?"
28932At last one of the men said:"What sort of a husband do you want, then?
28932At last she grew weary, and cried:"Why ever do you catch such a terrible lot?"
28932At the same moment, the master of the house came in and said:"Have you had nothing to eat yet?"
28932But one evening when the bad wizard mocked him as usual Isigâligârssik said:"Ho, and what of you who took my wife away?"
28932But suddenly Nukúnguasik slapped him on the side and said:"But where is this Nukúnguasik?"
28932But the other said to him:"Why will you do such a thing?
28932But when he came back to his own place, his fellow- villagers asked:"Wherever did you get all this?"
28932But when he came to the rock he was to drive round, this Obstinate One said to himself:"Why should I drive round a rock at all?
28932Did you ever see....""What is come to Kâgssagssuk; what can it be?"
28932Hardly had she said those words when an old wifeless man turned towards her and said:"Was it by any chance your Magic Bear that killed him?"
28932He had hardly shown himself, when the other asked very eagerly:"Has he had nothing to eat yet?"
28932His wife, who was looking out for him as usual, shading her eyes with her hands, said then:"But what has happened to Qasiagssaq?"
28932Inside the tent sat a boy, and Pâtussorssuaq fell upon him, crying:"Where is she?
28932Is there a great beast with a black- and- white face?"
28932It is time for you to go out and taste the water in the land of the dead under the earth-- or perhaps you will go up into the sky?"
28932Next day many umiaks and kayaks set out to the eastward, and when they had rowed a long way in, they asked:"Where is it?"
28932Now where could I have kept such a thing?"
28932One day when he was out in his kayak as usual, he said:"What is the use of my being out here, I who never catch anything?"
28932Qasiagssaq cleared his throat loudly and said:"What is the matter with him?"
28932So they asked again:"Where is it?"
28932THE RAVEN AND THE GOOSE Do you know why the raven is so black, so dull and black in colour?
28932Then he asked the others of the house in a low voice:"What is the trouble here?"
28932Then he came forward and said:"Where is our little son?"
28932Then he said:"Not one of you eating, and here a newly- killed whale?"
28932Then she turned to her son, and said:"Have they not eaten yet?"
28932Then the old woman turned towards the others and said:"Mine?
28932Then there is something about a man and a woman, but what of them?
28932Then without going in again, the old woman went hurrying to the nearest house, and cried at the window:"Are you all at home?"
28932Therefore they asked him at last:"Do you want to go home very much?"
28932What footsteps are these, all full of seaweed?"
28932When did they find each other, and when had they grown up?
28932When only a little time had gone, the strong man came rowing out to him and said:"Now perhaps you have again failed to go to my wife?"
28932When they had come near to their village, one said to the other:"Has there not wakened a thought in your mind?
28932Where is it?"
28932Where is she gone?"
28932Which is it to be?"
28932Will you do this for me?"
28932Would n''t care to... come and visit us?"
28932what?"
45192And why not?
45192And,added Fred,"Captain McAlpine knows where we are; he will remain in the neighborhood until morning--""How do you know he will?"
45192But are there not shallow places in the ocean, hundreds of miles from land, where such a great iceberg as this might touch bottom?
45192But what is it?
45192But what is the other matter you refer to?
45192But what is the use of speculating about the future?
45192But why do n''t we hear something of him?
45192But why does it take so long?
45192But, father, have you thought of any way of giving Fred a vacation before he goes to work? 45192 By the way,"he asked, as the preparations for supper progressed,"what did you say was the name of the ship on which you left London?"
45192Can it be,asked Rob, following up a whimsical idea,"that he fears we are n''t ourselves?
45192Can we travel without snow- shoes?
45192Can you find out what time it is?
45192Can you find the way?
45192Crestana, I guess you have n''t forgot Jack Cosgrove?
45192Do n''t you think this iceberg will hold together until morning?
45192Do you obsarve that?
45192Do you see that?
45192Do you suppose they heard us?
45192Do you think they will visit us?
45192Do you want your dinner?
45192Glad to meet you,replied the Esquimau, somewhat abashed by the effusive greeting;"where you come from?"
45192Had n''t you observed that before? 45192 Hello, Jack, have you found anything?"
45192How can Docak keep his bearings?
45192How can we prepare more than we''re prepared now?
45192How did you manage to find them in the dark?
45192How do you do, my hearty? 45192 How do you know he has?"
45192How far have we come?
45192How long is this fog likely to last?
45192I suppose, Mr. Schmidt, that we can go home by way of Denmark?
45192I think Fred and I have also learned something, but what are you driving at?
45192I wonder whether there are more polar bears on this craft?
45192If Docak, with all his experience could not keep himself from going astray, what wonder that I should drift from my moorings? 45192 In what respect?"
45192In what way can that affect us?
45192Is it possible for the berg to strike something like that and stick fast, without shifting its centre of gravity?
45192Is n''t that what we are doing?
45192Is your home where it was when I was here last?
45192Keep a sharp lookout, my hearty, or there''ll be another lad lost, and then what will become of Jack Cosgrove?
45192Me be here''fore,said he;"like de place?"
45192No; have you?
45192Not the''Fox''I have read about as having to do with the Franklin expedition?
45192Now, is n''t that one of the strangest things you ever heard of, lads? 45192 So glad-- much glad-- whale kill vessel ag''in?
45192Started out to fish-- you go ashore with me?
45192Suppose we run into it?
45192Suppose we should slip, Jack?
45192Suppose,said Fred,"we should keep this up until we killed a hundred, would n''t the rest have enough to eat by that time?"
45192Ten miles,repeated Fred Warburton;"are the Esquimau miles the same as our English, or are n''t they double their length?"
45192The Northern Lights, and O--"The Northern Lights,interrupted their friend, with a sniff of disgust;"is that all?"
45192There can be no doubt of that, but I say, Jack, is n''t there something off yonder? 45192 This wood will soon go, and then how are we going to keep from freezing to death?"
45192We''ll give''em all we''ve got,added Jack;"but what about you, Docak?"
45192Well, he did n''t do it,replied Fred, with a half- shudder and laugh,"so what''s the good of thinking about it?
45192Were you ashore?
45192What about the''Nautilus,''if she is in it?
45192What are they?
45192What can it mean? 45192 What can that mean?"
45192What do you mean to do?
45192What for? 45192 What for?"
45192What have you discovered, Jack?
45192What is it?
45192What is it?
45192What is it?
45192What is there so crazy about such an idea?
45192What made you lie down at all?
45192What then would take place, Jack?
45192What time be it?
45192What was it? 45192 What was that?"
45192What''s that?
45192What''s that?
45192What''s that?
45192What''s the matter with you?
45192What''s the matter?
45192What''s the matter?
45192What''s the trouble, Docak?
45192What''s the use of waiting,asked Rob,"when it ca n''t be any better and may grow worse?
45192What''s to hinder him?
45192What''s your name?
45192When do we start?
45192Where did sound come from?
45192Where do you suppose he has gone?
45192Where?
45192Which course will we take to- morrow, Docak?
45192Why did n''t we think to tell Jack and Docak, that they might have enjoyed the scene with us?
45192Why did n''t you fire into the herd?
45192Why did n''t you tell us that before?
45192Why do n''t they strike?
45192Why do n''t we hear it now?
45192Why not?
45192Why not?
45192Why, then, did n''t you yell to me to stop my running?
45192You can just bet we will; your kayak is strong enough to take us all, is n''t it?
45192After all, what could he hope to accomplish by this hunt for Fred Warburton?
45192And did n''t those three fellows have a feast, with Docak himself as a participant?
45192And now how many of my readers can tell me what cryolite is?
45192And then, supposing they did catch sight of some stray vessel, who of the captain and crew would be looking for living persons on board an iceberg?
45192And yet, while all this was interesting in its way, and for the time encouraged the others, of what possible import was it?
45192Another polar bear, or two of them?"
45192Are you ready for bear steak?"
45192As he did so, he uttered an exclamation of amazement:"Where have been my eyes?"
45192But, I say, did you ever know of any such cowardly animals as the musk ox?
45192Docak bring no ice?
45192Fred, old fellow, where are you?
45192Had he the power to do so?
45192How came you to know we were here?"
45192How is it with you, Fred?
45192How then are we going to fight our way thirty miles through it?"
45192How would you like to make a voyage to that part of the country?"
45192How you be?
45192Howsumever, where has he gone?"
45192I hardly suppose you would care to make a hunting trip into the interior?"
45192I suppose, Docak, you''re able to sleep, ai nt you?"
45192I wonder where the other folks are?"
45192If die they must, why not stay where they were and perish together?
45192If they had gone for me, where would I have been?"
45192Is n''t he, or, rather, was n''t he a big fellow?"
45192Is n''t it beautiful?"
45192Laying his hand on his arm, he said, in an undertone:"I wonder if the captain wo n''t let us visit that iceberg?"
45192Shall I explain?
45192Such being the outlook, where was there ground for hope?
45192Supper, I see, is ready; will you kindly walk out with me?"
45192That old berg has struck a bee line for the North Pole, but it wo n''t reach there, eh, Docak?"
45192That was impossible now, and as to the future who could say?
45192That would make hard traveling, but then a hunter must take some risk and who cares?
45192The rest was barely ten minutes, when Docak, looking at his companions, asked:"Be rested?
45192Then to know that they were speeding toward safety-- what more could be asked?
45192They looked down on the prostrate figure, and finally Fred asked:"What''s the matter, Docak?"
45192Warburton?"
45192We go on?"
45192What did he see?
45192What put such an idea in your head?
45192What then would be the fate of the party if the blizzard continued?
45192What was to prevent?
45192When nothing more remained worth attention he held up a piece, considerably scorched, and, looking at the others, asked:"Eat now?"
45192When they were adjusted for the night, Rob asked the question of Docak which had been in his mind for hours:"How far have we got toward home?"
45192Where are Jack and Docak?"
45192Where can he have gone?
45192Where capen?
45192Where could he have learned it?
45192Who could make his way through instead of over this?
45192Who had fired that gun whose report he just heard?
45192Why not try that?"
45192Why not, indeed, go on a hunting excursion into the interior before they returned to the settlement?
45192asked the amazed Rob;"are you crazy?"
45192called Rob, being the next to climb to his feet;"has the snow tumbled in on us?"
45192exclaimed the sailor, springing to his feet and striding across the room,"where did you come from, captain?"
45192hear de water?"
45192repeated the sailor, with a scornful laugh;"what kind of a going ashore do you call that?"
45192s''pose we had started for home last night?"
45192what''s the meaning of that?"
21707''Tis vat?
21707A fair flower, say you? 21707 Ah, George, like you I may say that the cause is now perplexity; for what can_ I_ do to help you in your present difficulty?"
21707And Frank, where is Frank?
21707And did they use Peter''s skin for such a purpose?
21707And did you see them do it?
21707And do you not love all the men?
21707And pray who is to defend your poor wife and innocent child in the event of an attack by a band of savage natives?
21707And the baggage, is it laid out? 21707 And what do you think of the non- arrival of Maximus?"
21707And what if they still persist in refusing to go?
21707And what perplexes you now, dear George?
21707And why do you hate him?
21707Any news? 21707 Are n''t we snug, Eda?"
21707Are they far inland?
21707Be- the- bye,resumed Bryan, when the metal was cooled,"has Francois finished that sled for Miss Edith?"
21707Bin, is it? 21707 Bliss yer innocent face, do n''t ye know it''s praties?"
21707But did you not tell him that we found the skin long ago, and that the Indians must be far, far away by this time-- nobody knows where?
21707But how came you so opportunely, Prince?
21707But tell me, Massan, what is a dan?
21707But who comes here?
21707Can it be possible?
21707Can you spare Edith for a short time, wife?
21707Come here, Chimo,said Edith, when these symptoms of restlessness had attracted her attention;"what is the matter with you, my dear dog?
21707Come here, Oolibuck; pourquoi is de stick?
21707Come, then, Master Frank,replied Stanley,"what does your sagacity advise on the point of our staying on this sandbank?
21707Could we not run back, Massan?
21707D''ye know, Losh,he resumed,"whin Mister Frank is goin''to the fishery?"
21707D''ye think I''m a haythen?
21707Did any of the men go out alone?
21707Did they see the bundle of presents we left for them at the coast?
21707Did they see you?
21707Did you see goose?
21707Do I lean heavily?
21707Do n''t you hear a strange noise, Frank?
21707Do the dogs of the Huskies eat with their masters?
21707Do they look friendly, think you?
21707Do you hear? 21707 Do you know anything of this, Maximus?
21707Do you really mean to say they are_ afraid_ to go? 21707 Does he never fail in anything, that you are so sure of him?"
21707Has he brought any furs?
21707Have the Allat got her?
21707Have they been long on the coast?
21707Have you been victorious?
21707How say you, Prince? 21707 How''s the old woman, eh?"
21707If the little fellows begin thus, what will not the big ones do?
21707Indeed it is very kind of him, my pet; but all the men seem to be very good to you-- are they not?
21707Is Prince a lazy man, papa?
21707Is he coming, Chimo?
21707Is it to halloo ye want me?
21707Is it true that you saw the men of fire?
21707Is it yer own gun ye''ve got?
21707Is the country we are going to like this, papa?
21707Is your contry resemblance to dat?
21707It''s quite true, though-- isn''t it, Moses?
21707Mane? 21707 May it not be possible,"murmured Stanley, while he leant his brow on his hand,"that she may have gone up False River?"
21707Nay, husband, what think you?
21707None o''the min goin''?
21707O Frank, how can you be so wicked?
21707O my own dear mother,sighed the child aloud, while a tear trickled down each cheek,"shall I never see you more?
21707Och, Losh, Losh, when will ye larn to think nothin''o''yoursilf? 21707 Please, madame, vat you vill have pour dinner?"
21707Pourquoi, why, mon boy? 21707 Rather cold, is it not?"
21707Shall I get in?
21707Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
21707Snug, said you, Jessie? 21707 So you think you would have killed him, do you, if I had not saved you the trouble?"
21707Stuff it down, avic, an''what''s to come o''the wather?
21707Taisin''ye? 21707 That is very wrong of Gaspard; but, dearest Eda, do you not remember what is written in God''s Word,--`Love your enemies?''
21707The kittle, is it? 21707 Then does my father not know where you are, or anything about your having heard of me?"
21707There, Jessie, what think you of that?
21707Timper it better, is it?
21707Vat were dat?
21707Vell, fat you want?
21707Was that all?
21707Well, Frank, what success?
21707Well, then, we had better encamp,said Stanley.--"Is there a proper place, Massan, hereabouts?"
21707Well, what says he?
21707What can have become of papa, I wonder?
21707What do you see, Frank?
21707What does White Heart mean to do with the Eater- of- raw- flesh?
21707What does he mean by that?
21707What have ye in the pot there?
21707What have you to say to me?
21707What is it, Peetoot? 21707 What is it?"
21707What is that man doing?
21707What is the matter, my darling?
21707What shall I do, Frank?
21707What shall we call the fort, Frank?
21707What think ye of that, boy?
21707What think you, Edith?
21707What will you give me?
21707What''s a dan?
21707What''s the matter, Moses? 21707 What''s to be done now?"
21707What''s to be done wid it, Losh? 21707 When did you awake, and begin to suspect that something was wrong?"
21707Where am I, Eda?
21707Where are the Allat? 21707 Where is Bryan, Frank?"
21707Whereabouts was it, Frank, that you fell in with the boat?
21707Which do you consider the old block,retorted Mrs Stanley--"you or me?"
21707Who is he, and wherefore in so great haste?
21707Why do n''t you speak of summer, papa?
21707Why you come for to jine de company?
21707Why, Bryan, what ails you? 21707 Why?
21707Yes, is n''t it, Eda?
21707` Well, Old Moggy,''said I, on entering her tent,` what cheer, what cheer?'' 21707 ` What shall we do, Maximus?''
21707--I see you want me to do or say something; what can it be, I wonder?"
21707A salmon must be rather troublesome to toss, but no doubt, with your strong arms, you''ll manage it easily, hey?"
21707All ready, lads?"
21707And is the bed to be of snow too?"
21707And now, captain, when must you start?"
21707And who would have a painting_ all_ light or_ all_ shadow?
21707Are all well?"
21707Are both canoes repaired?"
21707Are we agreed?"
21707Are you better now?"
21707Are you willing?"
21707At length he said,"Could not Dick Prince be spared?"
21707But really the thing does seem to my ignorant mind impossible.--What think you, Eda?"
21707But what have we here?"
21707But who is this you have got beside you?''
21707But wo n''t it be cold, Frank?
21707Could human beings face so wild a storm as this?
21707D''ye hear?"
21707Dear Chimo, where is Frank?"
21707Did they remind you of the fair maid of Derry, hey?"
21707Did you ever see her before?''
21707Did you see traces of Indians or Esquimaux?"
21707Do n''t you think I am too little to shoot a gun off?"
21707Do you advise our remaining?"
21707Do you think Annatock will let me?
21707Do you think it like?"
21707Do you think the girl''s a witch?''
21707Do you understand these marks?"
21707Fat shall ye to do?"
21707Has Prince refused?
21707He was well armed, you say, and amply supplied with provisions?"
21707How can ye expict it to kape its idge when ye lave it for iver lyin''among yer pots and kittles?"
21707How do you think you will like it?"
21707How many have you perpetrated since we were married?"
21707How say you?
21707How you not can temper him edge better?"
21707I doubt it would need a power o''chewin?"
21707Is Chimo safe?
21707Is it like, mamma?
21707Is it not kind of Francois?
21707Is it not so?
21707Is it not so?"
21707Is the distance really short?"
21707It signifies,_ Are you friendly_?
21707Kissing Eda''s forehead she said kindly,--"Which of them do you hate, darling?"
21707Mais, Francois, did you look into the deep clear pool at de foot of de rapid?"
21707Nivertheless I managed to live well enough in the ould cabin wid the murphies--""Vat is murphies?"
21707Observe, I do not say that this is actually the case; I only suggest that it is possible-- may I not add, probable?"
21707Och, Bryan dear, why did ye iver lave yer native land?"
21707Oh, when, when will it come?"
21707Said they anything more, Frank?"
21707Saw you ever a crow with antlers?"
21707Says he,` Bryan, will ye go?''
21707Shall we go, or shall we mutiny?"
21707Shall we spend another night on it in order to dry the goods, or shall we up and away to_ terra firma_ as soon as the canoes are seaworthy?"
21707Shall we turn back?''
21707Shure a man is better than a baste any day; and besides, had I not a frind at my back ridy to help me?"
21707Speak literally, man: was it a little white girl that you saw?"
21707Tell me, is she in one of the other oomiaks?"
21707The draughts without, Frank, are a little too powerful for the draughts within, I fear.--What, wife, making another coat?
21707The question should have been,` Who will be first to volunteer?''"
21707Then a thrill of fear passed through her breast as the thought occurred,"What if the wolf has attacked and killed him?"
21707Then in an undertone he added,"` Look sharp,''is it ye say?
21707Then, checking him as he was about to commence the work with his hatchet, she said earnestly--"Do spirits really dwell in the springs, Frank?"
21707There''s another,--eh?
21707Vill you give some?''
21707Were they sweet, Bryan?
21707What is''t, man?
21707What say you, Eda; will you allow me to train you to shoot, and fish, and walk on snow- shoes, and so make a trader of you?"
21707What say you?
21707What shall we call it?"
21707Where am I, Edith?"
21707Where come you from?"
21707Where have you been?"
21707Where is my wife?"
21707Wherein consists the potent charm that draws mankind towards thee with such irresistible affection?
21707Why did she not come with you?"
21707Why do you ask?"
21707Why do you look so excited?
21707Will four days''provisions do?"
21707Will you go in my canoe or walk?"
21707Will you wake and watch?"
21707Would my Eda like to go there?"
21707Would the scalp of yon Eater- of- raw- flesh pay us for coming so far from our hunting- grounds?
21707Ye''ve run out o''baccy, now?
21707Yes, and we''ll invite papa and mamma to come and take supper at_ our_ house.--Maximus, is this the exact way your friends build their winter houses?"
21707You know that Monsieur Stanley said he would expect us to be ready with an answer to- night.--What think you, Gaspard?
21707You recollect the hut we built on the lake when I was so badly hurt, and when you were lost, Eda?
21707You shudder at the preposterous idea of such a sight being fitted to rejoice the heart of man in any degree whatever?
21707are Francois, Gaspard, and Massan cowards?"
21707ca n''t ye go stidy?
21707do you understand me?"
21707exclaimed Frank, as the canoe drew near;"does it not look like Maximus-- eh?"
21707exclaimed Frank;"but did any of you see Bryan?
21707exclaimed Stanley, looking out ahead;"what''s that?"
21707exclaimed the Irishman, once more wrinkling up his expressive face, and peering under his palm;"anthlers, say you?
21707how hot it is.--I say, Oolibuck, does n''t it remember you o''the dogs o''yer own country, when they gits the stone kettle to clean out?"
21707how is she?
21707how_ can_ you?"
21707how_ can_ you?"
21707is it not a delightful place?"
21707more game?"
21707not at it yet?
21707repeated Frank;"what objections can bold spirits have to go on a bold adventure?
21707said Frank, as a sudden thought occurred to him;"shall I cut a doorway into that crystal house, and see if the spirit of the spring dwells there?"
21707say you, reader?
21707shall we cross?"
21707shall we make a good day of it?"
21707they exclaimed;"you here?"
21707vat shall I do?"
21707what have we here?"
21707what have we here?"
21707what have we here?"
21707what have ye got there, Maximus?"
21707what have ye got there?"
21707what is it, my dog?
21707what mean you?"
21707what recked he of the consequences?
21707what''s this?"
21707what''s wrong?
21707what''s wrong?"
21707whence came this charger?"
21707where are you taking me to?"
21707who goes there?"
21707why did you do that?"
21707why do n''t you give up eating it raw?"
21707why_ wo n''t_ you have it cooked?"
21707will it come stiff; think ye?"
21707will ye see the poor lad drownded forenint yer two eyes?"
21707you do n''t agree with us?
21709And look here, father,continued Adolay,--"what do they mean by having all their snow- shoes slung on their guns instead of on their feet?"
21709And me too?
21709And was the girl fond of him and of you?
21709And where would you steer to?
21709And will it kill the walrus too?
21709And you know him well?
21709And you love it?
21709Are we to use the inch or the inch- an''-a- half nails?
21709Are you determined?
21709Are you going with me?
21709Besides, look there,she added, pointing to the stern of the little craft,"do Eskimos not use their eyes?"
21709But does any one think they will believe that?
21709But has he not left your tribe? 21709 But how did you discover me?"
21709But surely my son is not bound to keep a promise given to one of our fire- spouting enemies?
21709But what if a lump had dropped into the canoe and sunk it?
21709But what was it like?
21709But what will you do for fire?
21709Can it be,he thought,"that the Great Manitou knows my grief and does not care?
21709Can you understand my speech?
21709Dead?
21709Did Adolay go with him?
21709Did I not tell you that_ something_ would happen?
21709Did I not tell you,said Aglootook, who appeared to be superintending the workers,"that wonders would be done to- day?"
21709Did n''t I tell you, mother, that she was funny? 21709 Did not Cheenbuk forbid every one to go near the big kayak while the men were away?"
21709Did the girl,he asked,"go away with the escaped prisoner of her own will, or did he force her to go?"
21709Did you not do the very same thing yourself when you made Cheenbuk''s nose far too long-- for the same purpose?
21709Did you not know? 21709 Do n''t you see?"
21709Do n''t you think it is likely?
21709Do n''t you think,said the old man suggestively,"that you could give him a chance of getting what he likes without going so far from home?"
21709Do they dwell far from here?
21709Do they sometimes do like that by themselves?
21709Do without them, then,observed Mangivik sharply;"why should we want things that we never had, and do n''t need?
21709Do you like it? 21709 Do you like it?"
21709Do you think He hears us?
21709Do you think,asked Cheenbuk,"that your daughter has married this young man?"
21709Do_ you_ like it?
21709Does it make you less of a fool because Magadar is one also? 21709 Does it not burn?"
21709Does my son know the tribe to which she has been taken? 21709 Does not my father think that we should go?"
21709Had you to go far?
21709Has Gartok killed much?
21709Has he been here again?
21709Has he uttered speech?
21709Have enemies been in the camp?
21709Have they got much meat?
21709Have you any more strange things in your bundle?
21709Have you ever seen these white men or their_ big_ canoes?
21709Have you ever seen things like these?
21709Have you not asked her, then?
21709Have you seen a bad spirit?
21709Have you some of the tee, or the fire- water, or any more of the thing that smokes-- what you call it?
21709Have you told my father all, Cheenbuk?
21709Have you told?
21709Have you, too, got a mother?
21709How do you know that there is`_ nothing_''in the place where you are going?
21709How do you know,continued the chief, with perplexing pertinacity,"that the sun is not the moon?"
21709How will you travel?
21709I do n''t like to trouble your father too much, Adolay,whispered Cheenbuk;"would you say to him that we wish very much to see him use the spouter?"
21709Is Alizay a squaw?
21709Is Gartok with them?
21709Is he going to die?
21709Is it bad?
21709Is it better than water?
21709Is it good?
21709Is it very far from here to the seas to which these whale- killers come?
21709Is it very,_ very_ far away?
21709Is it wise to go alone?
21709Is my fire- bag behind you, Adolay?
21709Is that river better than the Greygoose one?
21709Is the great Maker of all a fool? 21709 Is there not here also the track of a dog, with a strange mark on each side of it, as if it were drawing two lines as it went along?"
21709Iss it here the canoe wass lyin'', Tonal''?
21709It iss gettin''late, Bartong; do n''t you think it would be as well to camp here?
21709Like? 21709 May it not have been fear of this man, this Magadar, which drove her away?"
21709My father may be right,observed the Eskimo;"but why did they put such a heap of stones above him?"
21709No?
21709Not too far for some of us to go and return before the open water?
21709Now, then,continued the Eskimo, turning again to the young men,"who will go?
21709Old Uleeta, I doubt not, told you of the fight I had with the Fire- spouters?
21709Rinka,he said, softly, while he undid her jacket and sought for the wound,"is it bad?
21709So I am, girl, so I am, but what can I do?
21709So, then, man- of- the- woods,said Cheenbuk at last,"_ you_ are the father who has lost his daughter?"
21709The hand at the top points the way clear enough,said the Indian,"but were you careful to observe the direction before you moved it?"
21709They are good?
21709To get food, and wood, and berries is good,observed the old man;"but why fight with the Fire- spouters?
21709Was Nazinred very fond of his daughter?
21709Was he sick?
21709Was the young brave Alizay afraid to touch him?
21709What are you doing?
21709What can it be?
21709What cheer? 21709 What do you mean?"
21709What do you think?
21709What folly is this that I hear?
21709What is it?
21709What is the joke?
21709What is this?
21709What is your name?
21709What iss it you will be wanting now?
21709What iss this man wantin'', Tonal''? 21709 What iss your opeenion, Bartong?"
21709What kind of a man is your husband?
21709What other reason could she have? 21709 What right had you to go without your fire- spouters to attack_ them_?"
21709What stuff is this that I hear? 21709 What then?
21709What troubles you? 21709 Where are you going, Doocheek?"
21709Where did they go?
21709Who goes with you?
21709Who is not likely to come back?
21709Who is this man Nazinred that our leader is always talking about?
21709Why did your husband go off alone?
21709Why do the young men wish to go there?
21709Why does Adolay think so?
21709Why does my brother say so?
21709Why go you towards the rising sun?
21709Why not, my child?
21709Why run you so fast?
21709Why should we fight? 21709 Why should you fear it?
21709Why, then, do you still come against us with fire- spouters?
21709Why, then, should not we go to a land where there is much that is far better than we find here, and live as the Fire- spouters live? 21709 Why?"
21709Will Adolay come for a drive?
21709Will Cowlik go?
21709Will the Indian girl be glad to leave us?
21709Will the man- of- the- woods go first and try the spouter?
21709Will the others be back soon?
21709Will this young man, this Cheenbuk, be willing, do you think, to leave her in the lodges of her people and give her up altogether?
21709Willingly?
21709Woman,he said earnestly to his wife, who stood beside him,"do you see who steers the kayak?
21709Would not these men give much to get back their old strength and health?
21709Would you like to try it?
21709Yes, and if Magadar has bad luck?
21709Yes, yes; is it not my own country?
21709Yes? 21709 You are alone?"
21709You are back before me?
21709You are feeling better?
21709You have got this ready for me?
21709You have plenty strong moccasins ready, have you not?
21709You said, mother, that Cheenbuk gave them a good deal of trouble?
21709Your_ wife_?
21709` Why should we fight?'' 21709 A hunter? 21709 Although theYou?
21709And did we not find it?"
21709And even if they did hunt, what then?
21709And is it well with the girl?"
21709And was there not gunpowder enough to blow the fort and all its contents into unrecognisable atoms?
21709Any more?"
21709Are not the Eskimos as strong and brave as the men- of- the- woods?"
21709Are not their scalps drying in our lodges?
21709Are the Eskimo girls not able to walk, that you ask such a question?"
21709Are we not satisfied with whales and walruses, bears and seals, deer and birds?
21709Are you comforted to- day, in your poverty, by the thought that you were well off yesterday?"
21709Are you hungry?"
21709As for his talk about the Great Spirit and the future, what does he know about either the one or the other?
21709As the Eskimo did not take the scalp of Nazinred, how is it that Nazinred did not bring home the scalp of the Eskimo?"
21709But are ye sure, Bartong, that this is the lake?"
21709But had he found his daughter?
21709But if I go on with the canoe how will you get home?
21709But tell me, man- of- the- woods, do you think your child had no reason for leaving home in this way except fondness for the young man?"
21709But what is that on his wife''s back-- not a new baby, surely?"
21709But would she be able to carry out her plan?
21709Could anything be more natural-- even in a European prince?
21709Could anything be plainer?
21709Could it be that some of his tribe had followed him to the river and fallen in with the men of the woods?
21709Did he make us to fight each other?
21709Did not a lump of snow fly in your face and knock you over among the children?"
21709Did they tell you what supplies he wass supposed to have taken?"
21709Did ye ever think o''that, Tonal''?"
21709Do n''t you know him?"
21709Do n''t you remember him?"
21709Do n''t you remember that one, mother, that we met when we went last spring with some of our men to shoot at the Greygoose River?
21709Do n''t you see him there in front?
21709Do n''t you think that I should sit behind and steer?"
21709Does He not love me?
21709Does his attack on Nazinred look like a lover of peace?
21709Does not Aglootook prove by his own conduct that he thinks so?
21709Does the young man who took her away treat her kindly?"
21709Has he killed you?"
21709Has he seen him?
21709Has he talked with him?
21709Has not one of our chiefs-- Nazinred-- been attacked by one of them?
21709Have we not found it?
21709Have you forgotten that already?"
21709He has already thrown some light, for do we not know right from wrong?"
21709Hev ye not noticed that, Tonal''?"
21709How do you know what is the right spirit?
21709How do you know which is right?
21709How does he know that one of that sort may not think so deeply as to deceive him?
21709If I go and live with the men- of- the- woods, will you be my squaw?"
21709If I had a little child, would I treat it so?
21709If the Great Maker thought these things good for us, would he not have made them to walk up to our igloes and ask to be killed and eaten?
21709If there is such a Maker, did he not place us here, and surround us with all the things that we need, and intend us to remain here?
21709Is Cheenbuk to be at the meeting?"
21709Is he wiser than the Dogribs?
21709Is it not better to live at peace and in good- will with all men than to live as enemies?"
21709Is it not more likely that He is calling you to some other land where there is work for you to do?"
21709Is it not rather quite plain that man was made with wants and wishes and the power to satisfy them, and so advance from good to better?
21709Is it so among the Eskimos?"
21709Is it something you may not tell me?"
21709Is not our snow igloe as comfortable as the Fire- spouters''skin tent?
21709Is this not true?
21709Is this not wise?"
21709Might not the white traders, who take our furs and give us guns and powder, be willing to take these things too?
21709Must!--why must?"
21709Need we add that sleep closed their eyelids instantly?
21709Now, will you go?"
21709Of course the fair Nootka was beside them, for-- was not Oolalik one of the players?
21709Once again arose in his mind the question, Does the Maker of all care nothing about such things?
21709PEACE OR WAR-- WHICH?
21709Should wise men act thus?"
21709Tell me, what would you think of the fawn that would forsake its dam?"
21709The Indian, nodding assent, tapped her in return and exclaimed,"No- oot- ko?"
21709The wife said he had a strong sled with him, an''the best team o''dogs in the camp.--Do you think the boat will need a new false keel?
21709Then I thought to myself, Why should we live always among the floes and bergs?
21709Then he turned to the other Indian, and asked sharply:--"Has he been quiet?"
21709Then they came home, and what did they bring?
21709Then, poking her finger against her friend''s breast, she added--"You?
21709Then, tapping her friend, she said--"Addi- lay?"
21709Then-- in a low voice--"You see the cliff behind me, with the dead tree below it?"
21709Was I not right?
21709Well, and why not?
21709Were there not axes, and tomahawks, and scalping- knives enough to make the fingers of the braves to itch for war?
21709What can women do?
21709What could it be?
21709What do we care for their ornaments or other things?
21709What does Cheenbuk know about the Great Maker of all things?
21709What for wass he gifted wi''the power to hunt, if it wass not so?
21709What if he treated her ill?"
21709What is it?"
21709What is the news?"
21709What then?
21709What was left to him, then, but the ship?
21709When I jumped up, what do you think?
21709Who could mistake his legs?
21709Who is it?"
21709Why does Aglootook go hunting at all?
21709Why should not we have the same?"
21709Why should they be when they can spout wounds and death so easily?"
21709Why should they even do that?
21709Why should we fight the Eskimos again, and lose some of our best young men, as we lost them in the last great fight?
21709Why should we go and look for better things?
21709Will he keep his promise?"
21709Will my son speak now, and tell me what he knows about Adolay?"
21709Will not the Eskimo watch for his chance, get free from his bonds, kill some of us when we are off our guard, and, perhaps, escape?"
21709Will the young Eskimo''s mind not change?"
21709Will you come outside?"
21709Without any reference to what had passed, the Indian turned to his companion and said,"Why should the men of the ice fight with the men of the woods?"
21709Would it not be wise to live at peace with the Eskimos?
21709Would the girl try to carry out the plan, whatever it was?
21709You have often heard me talk of the Fire- spouters, Anteek?
21709and forsake Oolalik?"
21709asked Cheenbuk, after a few moments''profound meditation,"why should the men of the woods attack the men of the ice with their fire- spouters?"
21709asked Nazinred,"and pemmican, and dried meat?"
21709ejaculated the Highlander;"if Solomon had been your grandfather you could scarcely hev made a wiser speech.--What think you, Tonal''?"
21709exclaimed Oolalik, with a look of scorn,"what are you?
21709exclaimed the Indian, with a look of surprise in spite of himself,"how do you know?"
21709he growled with a Gaelic expletive which it is impossible to spell,"iss that a birch- bark canoe that I am seein''?"
21709hoi- oi?"
21709how was it?"
21709it was like-- like--""Like a big kayak?"
21709there''s a far grander place we''re comin''in sight of-- an''--iss that an Indian tent I see?"
21709what cheer, Mozwa?"
21709what had they gained?
21709what right had they to come with their fire- spouters to attack us?"
21709why not walk straight down our throats and save all trouble?
21709you?"
21709you?"
21733A whale usually spouts on coming up, does n''t it?
21733All night?
21733And is not Puiroe my property?
21733And no more islands?
21733And suppose I do n''t insist on carrying these things, what then?
21733And taken the kayaks with them?
21733And what am I responsible for, father?
21733And what does futurity look like?
21733And what have you to say about yourself?
21733And what is the Nort Pole, my son?
21733And what of that, you excitable goose?
21733And what said he to that?
21733Anything damaged?
21733Are not the floes nearer? 21733 Are some men his people and some not?"
21733Are they bound hand and foot?
21733Are you going to try it, father?
21733Are you ready, Ben?
21733Are you sure of what you say, Chingatok?
21733Are you sure, Chingatok, that there is no more ice in this sea?
21733Ay, how?
21733Bright or dark?
21733Bumped? 21733 But I do not know God''s commands; how then can I obey them?"
21733But how are we ever to pass that barrier, uncle?
21733But how are we to cross over it, uncle?
21733But how ever did he cross that ice?
21733But how, uncle?
21733But is n''t that slow work, lad?
21733But is not_ all_ mystery in the long past?
21733But it is pretty tight packed just now, father, and looks wintry- like, does n''t it?
21733But seriously, uncle, what do you mean to do?
21733But, father, if they have got nothing at home, why come here to search for it?
21733But,said the prime minister of Flatland, starting a difficulty,"who is to be_ greatest_ chief?"
21733Can anything have happened to the boat?
21733Can it be part of Greenland?
21733Can it be possible?
21733Could not my friend,replied Chingatok,"change some of the words of his book into the language of the Eskimo and mark them down?"
21733Could not understand?
21733D''you mean to tell me, Alf, that you''ve been true to nature when you sketched that pack?
21733Did Blackbeard tell you that?
21733Did I not say that they were fools?
21733Did I say it was?
21733Did he?
21733Did not I tell you,said Chingatok to his sire that night, in the privacy of his hut,"that the Kablunets are great men?"
21733Do n''t you think we might have supper before taking to the oars?
21733Do n''t you wish you may get me?
21733Do they understand our language?
21733Does Blackbeard,asked Chingatok, after a few seconds''thought,"expect to find this Nothing-- this Nort Pole, in my country?"
21733Does Oblooria think that no one can fight but the giant?
21733Does he ever speak of a Great Spirit?
21733Does he_ look_ afraid?
21733Does my father wish me to get the kayaks ready?
21733Does the Kablunet,he asked,"think I am afraid to die-- afraid of a noise?
21733For what do you require their help, father?
21733Found what, my son?--his nothing-- his Nort Pole?
21733Go, go,said the Eskimo chief, losing temper as he lost ground in the argument;"what can Kablunets know about such matters?
21733Got your hand on the check- string? 21733 Hain''t Buzzby got nuffin''to say on that''ere pint?"
21733Has Chingatok become a fool, like the Kablunets, since he left home?
21733Has he not come to search for new lands_ here_, as you went to search for them_ there_?
21733Has he seen him-- spoken to him?
21733Has the Great Spirit no word of comfort for His Kablunet children?
21733Has your experience extended further north than this point?
21733Have these men got wives?
21733Have you not called?
21733Have you seen them-- have you spoken?
21733How about a tail, father?
21733How are we ever to know that we''re_ not_ dreaming?
21733How can the world float without wings?
21733How can we prevent it?
21733How far off, now, is your land from this island?
21733How long will they take to kill it?
21733How, Anders?
21733How, boy?
21733I vote that we sit up all night,said Benjy,"the sun does it, and why should n''t we?"
21733If it spinned should we not feel the spinning, and grow giddy?
21733Is he black under the clothes?
21733Is he going to carry it away with him in his soft wind- boat?
21733Is it a devil?
21733Is it not the most glorious and altogether astonishing state of things you ever heard or dreamed of, father?
21733Is not the big oomiak with them?
21733Is that worth Flatlander blood? 21733 Is the Kablunet afraid?"
21733Is the thing he searches for something to eat?
21733Is there not some tradition of a mild climate in the furthest north among the Eskimos?
21733Is this your native land, Chingatok?
21733Kin dey tell whar''gold is to be found, massa Alf?
21733May I speak, my father?
21733May it not be that Leo has influenced them peacefully, my father?
21733Me, massa? 21733 Might not the mystery- bundle that you call_ buk_ explain matters?"
21733Mother,returned Chingatok,"when the white bear stands up with his claws above my head and his mouth a- gape, does my hand tremble or my spear fail?"
21733My son,continued Amalatok,"these Kablunets seem to be stout- bodied fellows; can they fight-- are they brave?"
21733My son,said Grabantak one evening to Chingatok,"if we are henceforth to live in peace, why not unite and become one nation?"
21733No one killed?
21733Not want to''scape?
21733Nothing wrong I hope, uncle?
21733Nothing, my son?
21733Now then, all ready?
21733Now, Benjy, are you to go in, or am I?
21733Of course you do not intend that we should swim there, do you, uncle?
21733Of course,said Alf,"you will allow us to carry small libraries with us?"
21733Of what use would it be, my son? 21733 Shall we submit to insult?
21733Something to drink or wear?
21733Steak-- eh?
21733Surely my friend does not think we would forget him? 21733 Surely you''re not going to try to blow it up piecemeal?"
21733Tell me, my son,gasped Toolooha,"is Oblooria-- are the people safe?
21733The highest, uncle?
21733The use?
21733Then why do you speak to me of danger and death?
21733There_ must_ be One,he continued in a lower tone,"who made all things; but who made_ Him_?
21733Was he always black?
21733We''ll come to another berg ere long, no doubt, sha n''t we, Chingatok?
21733Well, my father?
21733Well, uncle, what''s the news?
21733Well, uncle, where is it?
21733Well, what about that?
21733Well, what am I to do?
21733What I you do n''t believe? 21733 What ails Oblooria, Anders?"
21733What am it, massa? 21733 What are_ you_ thinking of, you lump of charcoal?"
21733What d''ye mean, Butterface?
21733What d''ye think o''that, father?
21733What d''you mean, Butterface?
21733What did you do_ that_ for, father?
21733What do they eat?
21733What do you mean, Ben?
21733What does Blackbeard mean by coming here?
21733What does he mean? 21733 What have you got in the kettle?"
21733What have you got there, lad?
21733What if a chasm or a big hummock should turn up?
21733What induced you to keep on sketching all night?
21733What is it all about, father?
21733What is it to be, father?
21733What is it, Anders?
21733What is that?
21733What is the matter?
21733What is the other string?
21733What made him black?
21733What now, lad?
21733What plan do you intend to follow out, uncle?
21733What power is imprisoned in the machinery?
21733What power?
21733What say you, comrades? 21733 What says Chingatok?"
21733What says Oblooria?
21733What shall we do?
21733What sort o''squeak is that?
21733What you say?
21733What''r''ee doin''this for-- ee-- yaou?
21733What''s come of Alf?
21733What''s de use ob dem?
21733What''s de use?
21733What, my boy?
21733What, not even a box of paper collars?
21733What, the one near the middle of the lake, about four hundred yards off?
21733What, then, is to be your motive power, if not oars or sails-- which last would not work well, I fear, in an india- rubber boat?
21733What, your sketch?
21733What? 21733 What?"
21733When do you mean to start?
21733Where ever did you get it, father?
21733Where has Alf gone to?
21733Where have they gone, think you?
21733Where is he?
21733Where?
21733Where_ is_ the bear?
21733Whereaway, boy? 21733 Which s''uth''ard d''you think of going to, father?"
21733Which? 21733 Who are these, my son?"
21733Who did that?
21733Who made me?
21733Who, and what, is this man?
21733Why comes the ancient one here through the snow?
21733Why did you ask me about it, then?
21733Why did you bring these barbarians here?
21733Why do n''t you launch the boat on the lake?
21733Why do you go then?
21733Why do you hesitate? 21733 Why do you speak French to Englishmen, father?"
21733Why do you think so, Chingatok?
21733Why do you think so?
21733Why do you wish to go to war?
21733Why does it not bark?
21733Why goes my son to the ice- cliff?
21733Why not Great Hope?
21733Why not? 21733 Why not?"
21733Why think you so, my son?
21733Why, what''s wrong with you, Benjy?
21733Wo n''t you give them a blow- up first, father?
21733Would n''t you rather some of the squeak?
21733Yes, cuffy, also tee, and shoogre, and seal st- ate-- what?
21733You''re not losing heart, are you, uncle?
21733You''ve brought plenty of supplies, I hope, Alf?
21733You''ve brought the electrical machine, of course, and the dynamite, Alf?
21733You''ve not been bumped very badly in the tumble, father, have you?
21733You, uncle?
21733` If ignorance is bliss,''the poet saith-- why` if?'' 21733 A gleeful look of triumph caused his face, as it were, to sparkle, and he said, eagerly--We''ll winter at the North Pole, father, eh?"
21733Ai n''t it fun, father?
21733Am I a goose for recognising the fulfilment of an ancient prophecy?
21733Am I not saved from all-- and more than all-- of this?
21733And you must give us biskit an''--what do you call that brown stuff?"
21733At last Grabantak looked up, as if smitten by a new idea, and spoke--"Can Kablunet men fight?"
21733Awaking from his reverie at last, he said, abruptly,"How''s her head, father?"
21733Benjy, is not that Leo standing in front of the rest with another man?"
21733Better, I hope?"
21733But I say, Alf, have you nothing better than geological specimens in your box-- no grubological specimens, eh?"
21733But he''s rader a strong rem''dy, massa, don''you tink?
21733But then, how was it to end?
21733But, I say, daddy, how long are you going to keep us in the dark about your plans?
21733But, uncle, what of the Eskimos?
21733Buzzby,"cried the Captain,"but, I say, Alf, do n''t it seem to smack rather too much of selfishness?"
21733Can anything be clearer than that-- except the nose on Benjy''s face?
21733Can he not look on the great salt lake from the hummocks?
21733Can we pass this barrier, and, if not, what would he advise us to do?"
21733Can you blame him for lowering his spear, untying his eyebrows, and smiling blandly as the held out his hand?
21733Can you recall the great rivers of whale- oil from the sea into which they have been poured, or the blood of men from the earth that swallowed it?
21733Chingatok?"
21733Come along, the birds are growing impatient, do n''t you see?"
21733Could such a place have been made for nothing?
21733Could this be another bear?
21733D''ye know what it is, Chingatok?"
21733D''ye see that goose over there?"
21733D''ye see?"
21733D''ye suppose that nobody can swim but you and Benjy?
21733Did I not say that it could shriek and yell?
21733Did you ever make a friend of an enemy by beating him?"
21733Do I not revel in a regal realm of bliss?"
21733Do n''t you know what variation of the compass is?"
21733Do n''t you see that we are in agonies of suspense?"
21733Do n''t you trace it quite plainly?"
21733Do the maidens that weep rejoice?
21733Do the mothers that pine revive?
21733Do they hunt the walrus or the seal?"
21733Do you hear?"
21733Do you suppose I am so weak as to imagine that you would bring a packing- case all the way from England to the North Pole with nothing in it?"
21733Does Buzzby offer no consolatory remarks for such an occasion as this?"
21733Does it come from the moon or the sun?
21733Does it eat fire and smoke?"
21733Does not Benjy always carry him his morning cup of coffee when the weather is too bad for him to come hither?"
21733Does not this notebook prove him to be a Scot?
21733Eat smoke?"
21733Eh,_ Alf_?
21733Go, if you must go, but who will hunt for your poor old mother when you are gone?"
21733Had not meat to be procured, and then consumed?
21733Had the vehicle been suddenly furnished with wings?
21733Have I not heard him say that the world stands on nothing, spins on nothing, and rolls continually round the sun?
21733Have not all mothers acted thus, or similarly, in all times and climes?
21733Have we not just_ found_ him?
21733He ceased to grind his teeth, and stopping in front of the Captain, who had followed him, said in a low growl,"Do you think I will submit to insult?"
21733He said to me in the quietest way possible, just now,` Why do you give me_ your_ reasons when you tell me the Great Spirit has given His?
21733He says-- How can a man live peaceably with all men, and at the same time go to war with some men, kill them, and take their lands?"
21733How can anything spin on nothing?
21733However, this_ may_ be Greenland''s nose-- who knows?
21733I asked Blackbeard-- How can a world spin upon nothing?"
21733I say, Alf,"said the boy with an earnest look,"has n''t your favourite author got something to say about the bliss of ignorance?
21733I say, Anders, what are these creatures off the point there?
21733I say, may I go ahead of you?"
21733I shall now secure as much of our cargo as we have been able to save, and leave it here_ en cache_--""What sort of cash is that, father?"
21733If not, where did our tales and stories come from?
21733If so, what was he to do, whither to fly?
21733If there is no spirit in us that lives, of what use was it to make us at all?
21733If this Nort Pole is only a name and not a_ thing_, how can it_ be_?"
21733If you had been dreaming that would have wakened you-- wouldn''t it?"
21733In the big oomiak that they lost, some of the men did it, so-- puff, pull, puff, puff-- is it not funny?"
21733Is it land?"
21733Is n''t that a bit of water- sky over there?"
21733Is not war_ always_ loss, loss, loss, and_ never_ gain?
21733Is the World- Maker less wise than Pingasuk?
21733Is there no one up there?
21733Is there_ anything_ that passes the lips of man which he can not understand?"
21733Meanwhile, I''ll induce Teyma to get up an expedition to the island of this Maki- what?"
21733Moreover, had not Leo to act the part of physician and surgeon to the community?
21733Need it be said that an instant and vigorous search was instituted?
21733Need we enlarge on this point?
21733Need we say that the effect of the shot was wonderful?
21733Need we say that the feast was a great success?
21733Need we say that the strangers were at first gazed on with speechless wonder?
21733Need we say that, after this, they were careful how they used their axes and ice- chisels?
21733No one?
21733Now, the question is, how did he get there?"
21733Of what use have been all the wars of Flatland from Longtime till now?
21733Resolved to maintain his reputation for coolness, he said to his followers in imitation of Leo:--"Do you see that gull?"
21733Shall we turn in an''have a nap?
21733Surely He who made me and these Eskimos is capable of guarding us?
21733Surely you did n''t do it on purpose?"
21733Tell me, my son, where do the Kablunets live?
21733The chief frowned, clenched his teeth, and grasped a spear--"When did Kablunet men begin to have Eskimo sisters?"
21733The land may be far off, but am I not strong?
21733There are many stories told by fathers to sons, and fathers to sons, till they have all come down to us, and what do these stories teach us?
21733These are propellers-- human web- feet-- to enable me to walk ahead, d''ye see?
21733This kite system is like fitting a gigantic sail to a lilliputian boat, d''ye see?"
21733Was it large or small?
21733Was not the point in question one of vital importance to the wellbeing of the community-- indeed of the whole Arctic world?
21733What d''ye say to try a race with Leo?
21733What does Chingatok want to know?"
21733What does he mean by the three days of hard work coming to an end?"
21733What good has it done them?"
21733What great creature is that?
21733What is this great sea on which I float?
21733What say you, Chingatok?
21733What says Chingatok?"
21733What shall we call it?
21733What shall we call it?"
21733What time is it?"
21733What was to be done?
21733What_ can_ he be going to do?"
21733When Amalatok and Makitok heard the question propounded, they also said,"Why not?"
21733When did the Pole star become visible?"
21733When he comes to the great open sea what will he do without canoes?"
21733When would you like supper?"
21733Where did you leave him?"
21733Whither was he going?
21733Who ever before heard of the men of an expedition to the North Pole being kept in ignorance of the means by which they were to get there?"
21733Who has not?
21733Who made all that which I behold?"
21733Who will volunteer?"
21733Why came you to me alone?"
21733Why do you look perplexed, Butterface?"
21733Why doubt a fact so clearly proven, stubborn, stiff?
21733Why is this?
21733Why should I not go to see their land?
21733Why, where do you think we have got to?"
21733Will Grabantak allow us to be present at the council, think you?"
21733Will that do?"
21733Will you do me a great favour?
21733Will you send a young man in a kayak to Poloeland with a message from me to my people?
21733Would it not rather be deepened?"
21733Wrapped in my robe of ignorance, what_ can_ I miss?
21733You saw four mock- suns round the real one yesterday, did n''t you?
21733You say there is no chance of Grabantak being able to take the reins of government again for a long time?"
21733You''re sure, Anders, that you understood Chingatok''s description of the place?"
21733am I to lose that goose?"
21733and if there is, does he stay there alone?
21733and that the Eskimos kept for some time hovering round them at a respectful distance, as if uncertain how to act, but with their war- spears ready?
21733and the day before you saw icebergs floating in the air, eh?"
21733and when you have got your rock, and recovered your name, and pleased your fancy, do the brave young men that are dead return?
21733asked Leo,"who is that?"
21733asked Leo;"found your latitude higher than you expected?"
21733asked the Captain;"what says he to that, Anders?"
21733does he think that none but white men can kill far off?"
21733exclaimed the Captain,"are you sure?"
21733goin''t''squeeze''m all?"
21733have you been so long at sea with me and never heard yet about the magnetic pole?"
21733he asked in a low tone, when floating alone one day in his kayak, or skin canoe,"whence came I?
21733just like you; why did you do it?
21733muttered Captain Vane to himself in English; then to the giant in Eskimo,"What says Chingatok?"
21733no; what makes you think so?"
21733not even the Maker of it?
21733one of your enemies?"
21733repeated Alf in surprise,"have I been away all night?
21733shall Flatlanders become slaves?
21733shall the courage of the Poloes be questioned by all the surrounding tribes?
21733shall we sit down like frightened birds and see the black- livered cormorant steal what is ours?
21733that land on which I tread?
21733uncle; evil communications, eh?
21733what do you mean?"
21733what''s this?
21733where?
21733whither go I?
21733whom with?"
21733why, do n''t you see it?
21733would you kill me for_ that_?
21733would you not have me defend the Flatland name?"
21733you do n''t intend to carry the packing- case, uncle, do you?"
21696Agreed,said Okiok;"but how are we to do it?
21696And I am glad you have come,he added,"for of course you can also tell me where the Kablunet has come from, and whither he is going?"
21696And Nunaga?
21696And have you the strong mind?
21696And his dress-- how does he dress?
21696And if you had not got an answer at all,returned Okiok, wrinkling his brows in perplexity,"you would still have said that all was right?"
21696And what do your kinsmen think about heaven?
21696And what may ye- a- o- u--- my husband want with the mother of Ippegoo?
21696And you do n''t want him for a son?
21696Are they as big?
21696Are you hurt?
21696Are you in better health now that you''ve got them?
21696Are you much hurt?
21696Are your huts far off?
21696Are-- are you sure your torngak has made no mistake?
21696But Kabelaw?
21696But how are we to carry him there?
21696But how can that be,returned the pupil, with a puzzled look,"when your heart is warmed by Nunaga?"
21696But how do you know that?
21696But how if it is not a beast?
21696But surely,urged Simek,"if so many spirits speak to you, they must tell you_ something_?"
21696But tell me,cried Issek, the stern mother of Arbalik,"what does the Kablunet say the people eat in his own land?"
21696But tell me,said the old woman, becoming suddenly grave, and laying her thin scraggy hand on the man''s arm;"why do you call me mother?"
21696But what are we to do with the old woman?
21696But what did we begin our talk about?
21696But what if they_ do n''t_ come here?
21696But what is the Kablunet like?
21696But what were they doing in the cave?
21696But what,asked Okiok,"if a boy should say that it was six, and not five?"
21696But where is the bear- angekok?
21696But why do you say that Kannoa is very ill, Ippe?
21696But why do you wonder?
21696But you believe in one great and good Spirit, do n''t you?
21696But, Angut,said Rooney, growing somewhat weary at last,"you''ve asked me many questions; will you answer a few now?"
21696But, master, if I go to the south after seals, how can we ever meet at the green cave?
21696But,asked Okiok,"how can you tell that we are going south?
21696But,he said, with a humorous glance,"would it not be good for them-- especially for the gluttons-- to be prevented from eating too much?"
21696Can torngaks make mistakes?
21696Can you creep to the sledge?
21696Come, you''s not frighted?
21696Could we not send Kannoa back with the sledge, and you and I make sail after them on foot?
21696Did I not say that?
21696Did I not tell you before I started to visit Okiok that strange things would happen?
21696Did he not say that he had his kayak with him?
21696Did he tell you that I had also found a bear?
21696Did you not say the people were starving?
21696Did your torngak tell you that he was a Kablunet?
21696Do n''t you see he is making for the ice- top, where these gulls are sitting? 21696 Do n''t you see that it is because he is worn- out?"
21696Do n''t you think,interposed the youth, with a shiver,"that it would be better to try it on some one else-- on Angut, or Okiok, or even Norrak?
21696Do the Kablunets know God, the Good Spirit? 21696 Do they leak?"
21696Do we not know now that we shall meet him again in the great Fatherland?
21696Do you believe in your own spirit, Okiok?
21696Do you not see the small pieces of ice?
21696Do you see yon jutting ice- cliff that runs down to a point near the edge of the berg?
21696Do you suppose I would lead you to certain death for no good end? 21696 Do you want to grow fatter?"
21696Do? 21696 Does he know the angekok named Angut?"
21696Does n''t it fit well? 21696 Does not your great Book teach that the Father of all is bringing all people to Himself in Jesus Christ?
21696Free will?
21696Halo, Ippe, what''s wrong with you?
21696Has Nuna become a fool that she laughs at nothing?
21696Has Nunaga forgotten the road?
21696Has it seen you?
21696Has my husband become a walrus, that he can only shout and snort?
21696Has she not come back?
21696Have some more mikiak?
21696Have the hunters found no seals?
21696Have you no opinion, then, on that subject?
21696Have you not told me,said Angut, with a look of solemn surprise,"that all who love the Great Spirit shall meet again up there?"
21696Have you not told us that He answers prayer offered in the name of Jesus?
21696Have you prayed to be delivered?
21696Have you seen Angut lately?
21696Have you the stomach twist, my boy?
21696He says that it tells him about time,continued Nuna;"but how can it tell him about anything if it is dead?
21696He would not be your friend if he were not willing,returned the seaman gravely;"but what about Kannoa?
21696He''s a very bad man, is he not?
21696Houses? 21696 How big was that bear?"
21696How big?
21696How can I tell? 21696 How can a man eat too much?"
21696How could you have a torngak at all if you are not a_ real_ angekok?
21696How did he come by his accident?
21696How does Ridroonee know that he is alive?
21696How if you can not see him at all, yet want to tell of him in-- in-- what did you say-- writing? 21696 How so?"
21696How, then, are quarrels settled?
21696How? 21696 How?"
21696I ca n''t sleep, Angut,said the seaman;"I suppose you are much in the same way?"
21696I have never asked you, Angut-- do your tribes in the north here hold the same wild notions about the earth and heavens as the southern Eskimos do?
21696I know it, master; but can you not make me more wise by teaching me?
21696I see a sledge, and I know that some man made it-- for who ever heard of a sledge making itself? 21696 I would be more thankful,"said Ippegoo, with a woe- begone expression,"if we had saved even a spear; but what can we do without food or weapons?"
21696If my mind is weak,said Ippegoo somewhat sadly,"how can I ever become an angekok?"
21696If the Great Spirit wills that our end should be_ now_,said Angut,"is the Kablunet afraid to die?"
21696If this is true, how comes it that Ippegoo is here first? 21696 If you know not, how do you know that it comes?"
21696In what respect, Angut?
21696Ippe,she said,( for Eskimos sometimes use endearing abbreviations),"has Nunaga turned you upside down?"
21696Ippegoo,he said, stifling his anger with a painful effort,"are you going to turn against your best friend?"
21696Is Ujarak a friend?
21696Is Ujarak sure that the Kablunet said this?
21696Is he dead?
21696Is he doing that curious thing,asked Okiok in a low voice,"which you once told me about-- smookin''tibooko?"
21696Is he_ never_ content?
21696Is he_ very_ thin?
21696Is it the Kablunets''God you thank and pray to?
21696Is it then the wounded one?
21696Is n''t he a good liar?
21696Is n''t he strange?
21696Is n''t it good?
21696Is not mad water a cruel enemy? 21696 Is not this a proof of His love?
21696Is the Kablunet a messenger from heaven,asked Okiok, with increased solemnity,"that he speaks with the tongue of the Innuit?"
21696Is the man alone?
21696Like the summer- houses of the Innuit, I suppose?
21696My man,said Rooney, after a few minutes''intense application to the rib,"what is your name?"
21696My son, what is the matter?
21696Never mind; who cares?
21696Now, Kannoa,said Rooney, after some preliminary talk,"you remember the big white bear that Angut killed two moons ago?"
21696Now, then, Angut, what is the next thing to be done?
21696Now, will you give her my message?
21696Now, you understand that, do n''t you?
21696O idiot,exclaimed the wizard;"did I not tell you that you can not understand?
21696O why wo n''t you come to me, torngak?
21696Of course you have,returned Rooney;"what else can we do?
21696Oh, then it was an_ invisible_ bear, was it?
21696Okiok,she said,"have you seen an evil spirit?"
21696Remember it? 21696 Saw you ever a beast so_ very_ red?"
21696Seen what?
21696So he does,cried the wizard, with a scoffing laugh, as he hurled the ball aloft;"why does not your torngak help_ you_?"
21696So he says, and also beasts that have horns--"Reindeer?
21696So you''ve got back, Okiok?
21696Surely, then,remarked the hostess,"their legs must be cold?"
21696Tell me, what are the ceremonies to be gone through by that poor unwilling Ippegoo, before he can be changed into a wise man?
21696Tell me,continued the seaman sternly,"before you tasted strong drink or tobacco, did you want them?"
21696Tell me,said the Eskimo, who was impatient to begin his catechising,"do your countrymen all dress like this?"
21696Then I''m not_ really_ to be troubled with a spirit?
21696Then shall we disappear with this berg, if we do n''t escape from it?
21696Then they will be back immediately, I suppose?
21696Then who will fight him?
21696Then why did God permit sin?
21696Then why does evil exist?
21696Then you believe in other men''s spirits as well as your own spirit,said Rooney,"though you have never seen, heard, tasted, smelt, or felt them?"
21696Then you do n''t believe in angekoks?
21696There is a bear just round the point-- so Ippe says-- what''s to be done?
21696These are strange ideas,observed Rooney;"what have you to say about them?"
21696Took no food? 21696 True; but when I have made you an angekok then you will become a wise man-- don''t you see?"
21696Was it not yesterday,returned the pupil humbly,"that you told me to think well before speaking?"
21696We are glad to see you; but why do you come, and why alone, and why starving?
21696Well, father, and what comes after the morning feed?
21696Well, now, if you had believed in the great and good Spirit at that time, what would you have asked Him to do for you?
21696Well, where is that bear''s skin?
21696Were you not in very great danger when you were imprisoned on the iceberg-- in danger of starvation, in danger of being crushed by its disruption?
21696What ails you?
21696What are you fellows consulting about?
21696What are you going to begin the day with?
21696What care I whether you call it mad tooth or_ tootik_?
21696What comes, my son?
21696What customs has he changed?
21696What did he tell you to do?
21696What did you say was the name of your country?
21696What do you mean?
21696What has happened?
21696What has happened?
21696What is he goin''to do?
21696What is the danger that threatens, think you?
21696What like is this great wise man-- very big, I suppose?
21696What matters that?
21696What right have_ you_,he continued, turning sharply on the last speaker,"to look with contempt on Kajo?
21696What say you, Kannoa?
21696What say you?
21696What shall we do with him?
21696What was it like?
21696What will you attack it with?
21696What''s wrong, Ippegoo?
21696What''s your name, you walrus?
21696What, then, are your thoughts about these stars and streaming lights?
21696When did Okiok ever do anything before having his morning feed?
21696When do you start?
21696When is the end? 21696 When two men quarrel, can killing do any good?"
21696Where do you come from?
21696Where do you take us to?
21696Where goes Nunaga to- day?
21696Where is Tumbler?
21696Where is he now?
21696Where is your husband, Nuna?
21696Where to, my son?
21696Where, when, who, how, which, what?
21696Where-- where did she go in?
21696Who is Angut?
21696Who is coming, my son?
21696Who is he?
21696Who knows?
21696Who shall I invite, mother?
21696Who told you that?
21696Who told you to tell her that?
21696Who?
21696Why did He make evil? 21696 Why did you not bring him here?"
21696Why do n''t you ask your God to clear it away?
21696Why do n''t you believe them, Angut?
21696Why do they go north faster than we do?
21696Why does your torngak let you make so many mistakes?
21696Why not?
21696Why not?
21696Why, then, do you glare?
21696Why,asked Okiok, after gazing in silent admiration for a few minutes over the ledge,"why does he not swallow it, if he likes it, and keep it down?"
21696Why?
21696Will Ujarak carry a message from the Kablunet to his village?
21696Will the Kablunet sleep?
21696With all my heart,replied Okiok;"when shall it be?"
21696With what are they satisfied?
21696Wo n''t it be a tussle?
21696Wo n''t you come in, torngak?
21696Yes; near Walrus Bay?
21696Yes; well?
21696Yes; what may it be, think you?
21696Yes; when is it coming?
21696Yet it certainly exists,continued Egede;"you can not help believing that?"
21696You are weary?
21696You disreputable old seal,said Rooney,"where did you get the drink?"
21696You have got seal- flesh?
21696You know the hut of Okiok?
21696You think he must be watched, and his mischief prevented?
21696You''ll be_ sure_ to do what I tell you, wo n''t you?
21696You''ve heard what I''ve been saying, mother?
21696You-- you-- forgive me, I_ see_?
21696_ Are_ you better now than you were before? 21696 _ Who_ come, you walrus?"
21696_ You_ know, my dear little seal?
21696` Do you know White- bear Bay?'' 21696 ` Know it?''
21696` Tell me,''said he, with a frown,` do you know White- bear Bay?'' 21696 ` What answer is that?''
21696------------------------------------------------------------------------ But what of the Kablunet?
21696After a brief silence, he looked at the Kablunet again, and said--"Have they houses in your land?"
21696After a little drumming he began:--"Why must I step within this ring, To jump and dance, and drum and sing?
21696And how do you make marks for cold, for wind, for all our thoughts, and for the light?"
21696And is it not answered every day?
21696And so that is the reason you wo n''t be an angekok, is it?
21696And what were the thoughts of the wicked Ujarak as he lay there, helpless and suffering, silently watching Nunaga?
21696Angut expounded, as we have already explained, and then asked--"Have they no singing combats in your land?"
21696Answer, ye sportsmen, how would you get through your day''s work if there were not a glorious dinner at the end of it?
21696Are we, Pussi?"
21696Are you fond o''singin''?"
21696Are you hungry?"
21696Are you not ashamed of yourself?"
21696As to food, were they not already victualled for, not a three years'', but a three hours'', expedition?
21696But do n''t you understand people must see that you are, else how are they to know it?"
21696But have I not often heard them described by the men of the south?
21696But let me ask_ you_ a question: is not sin-- is not murder-- hateful?"
21696But now came the serious question, What was to be done?
21696But now, tell me, what chances, think you, have we of deliverance?"
21696But what cared they for that?
21696But what sort o''things do they believe, in these northern regions, that you ca n''t go in with?
21696But who are_ you_, and how come you to be in such a lonely place, and, if I do not greatly mistake, in a starving condition?"
21696But why does he spit it out?
21696But you look anxious, boy; what more have you to tell?"
21696Can Ridroonee tell where they go to?"
21696Can we all swim-- eh?"
21696Can you spare her for that work?"
21696Could it be a bear?
21696Could it be that, ignorant of the strength of the beast and its tenacity of life, the foolish man hoped to stab it to death with a small knife?
21696Did he not one time say that seals had come, And that birds were in the air?
21696Did these animals make themselves?
21696Did you ever see me run?"
21696Did you not say so?"
21696Did you not set them free?
21696Did you not tell me that the village of the Kablunets is only two suns from here?"
21696Do I not speak what is true?"
21696Do n''t you remember?
21696Do n''t you think so, Norrak?
21696Do n''t you think so, Ridroonee?"
21696Do you not hear sounds?"
21696Do you not know that Angut wants her?"
21696Do you not remember when I whispered to you in a dream last night that strange things were going to happen?"
21696Do you not see he is only bones in a bag of skin?
21696Do you not understand that you are only to pretend to go south?
21696Do you think, reader, that this line of thought and emotion, even in a savage, was unnatural?
21696Do you understand?"
21696Does he not like it?"
21696Does it remind thee of something very different, yet wonderfully like, in the old country?
21696Does it therefore not exist?
21696Has he not already begun his deadly work?
21696Has he not killed one of your best women, and broken the heart of one of your best men?"
21696Has not Ujarak advised you to change the ancient customs?
21696Has not his familiar spirit said anything to him?"
21696Have they seen him?"
21696Have we not been talking of the mercy of the Great Spirit?
21696Have you a good word to say in his favour?"
21696Have you arranged it with the Brethren?"
21696Have you ever noticed, reader, how invariably"bright ideas"deal sudden blows?
21696Have_ you_ much hope that we shall escape?"
21696He merely smiled, and, chucking a rotund little boy beside him under the chin, said,"What think ye of that, my little ball of fat?"
21696Here, wo n''t you go in for a steak or a rib?
21696How can I know anything about it?"
21696How can we know Him?
21696How could he?
21696How do you mark torngak?
21696How is that?"
21696I''ve learned it by livin''a long time wi''the traders in the south of Greenland, and I suppose I''ve got a sort o''talent that way; d''ye see?"
21696Is an angry, discontented, jealous, greedy soul healthy?
21696Is he then such a powerful angekok?"
21696Is it not the duty of one who would be an angekok to go away and live alone for many days fasting, and praying, and meditating?
21696Is it so?"
21696Is it the one who wounds that is thought right?"
21696Is not the same principle set forth in Scripture in reference to far higher things?
21696Is not your wish a silent prayer?
21696Is there, then, no motion in the air to cause sound because the deaf man does not hear?
21696Is, then, the rescue of Nunaga too hard for Him?"
21696Much the same, I fancy, that the southern Eskimos believe?"
21696Must they wait till the lamps are lighted before they eat?
21696Need we enlarge on the despair of Angut being turned into joy on his return, when he found Nunaga and Kannoa safe and sound?
21696Need we remind you that it is"the_ goodness_ of God which leadeth thee,( or any one else), to repentance?"
21696Need we say that they were received by their friends, as well as by the strange Eskimos, with enthusiasm?
21696Nothing wrong, I trust?"
21696Now, are you ready?"
21696Now, do you not feel that he has done it?"
21696Shall we permit him to slip quietly through our fingers, and disappear?
21696She is very old, and must soon grow feeble, and then--""And then?"
21696Then he said,"You are not an Eskimo?"
21696Then turning to Arbalik--"Did you not say that the hunters have found plenty of game?"
21696Then why do you believe in it?
21696Then, after a few minutes''further attention to the rib,"Why did they name you after the cold season o''the year?"
21696There was some risk in venturing on it, but what of that?
21696They left me to help to guard the camp, but are there not enough to guard it without me?"
21696Turning to his host, he said, with a bland expression--"I suppose this is your friend Angut, the angekok?"
21696V."Why stain your weapon with the blood Of one whose very life Was spent in trying to provide For little ones and wife?"
21696Was he your own torngak?"
21696Well, then, what was the strange thing like?"
21696Were you not in great danger when your oomiak and kayaks were crushed in the ice?"
21696What do you mean?"
21696What does he suspect?
21696What has brought you back so soon?
21696What powers of sudden onslaught might not lie hidden within that calm exterior?
21696Who can tell?
21696Who ever heard of any good coming of groaning and looking miserable?"
21696Who sends the seals, and fishes, and birds, even when we do_ not_ ask with our lips?
21696Why can not the Kablunet sleep?"
21696Why did the Great Spirit allow that?"
21696Why does he deny it?"
21696Why should there not be more light when I am an older man?
21696Will He trouble Himself about the like of us?
21696Will Ridroonee agree to take old Kannoa back to her friends, and I will go forward with the sledge alone?"
21696Will my friend run the risk?"
21696Will the Kablunet act this part to- day?"
21696Will you and your men sit down and listen?"
21696Will you come back with me?"
21696Will you get ready?"
21696Will you remember?"
21696Would that be true?
21696Would these afford you much satisfaction at such a time?
21696Would your refined pleasures have as keen a relish for you if you had only to look forward to bread and water between six and nine?
21696Would_ that_ be answering your prayer?"
21696Yet I see something-- always the same marks for the same beast; other marks for other beasts?"
21696You are hungry?
21696You believe in your life, do n''t you?
21696You know I run fast?"
21696You know it?"
21696You know what you''ve got to do?"
21696You rejoice in literature, music, fine art, etcetera; but how about one or two o''clock?
21696You understand?"
21696You''ve heard of the settlements-- the traders-- no doubt, in the far- off land over_ there_?"
21696Your people can count?"
21696and Ujarak says so?
21696and has not my torngak showed them to me in dreams?"
21696and leave you here?"
21696and what will come after it?
21696asked Simek in a slightly contemptuous tone--"with your fingernails?
21696can you sing?"
21696did it run at you?"
21696does_ he_ sing?"
21696exclaimed Angut, who had listened to the conversation with intense interest;"would it be good for you if I killed you?"
21696exclaimed Ippegoo;"what can he expect but death?"
21696exclaimed Kunelik, with a slight touch of asperity,"it''s a torngak that is to come, is it?
21696exclaimed Okiok-- or some expression equivalent to that--"Marry Nunaga to a Kablunet?
21696exclaimed the youth remonstratively,"Ujarak an idiot?
21696he growled-- referring to the child''s general and awkward habit of falling--"Can''t you shut your mouth?"
21696he is one of your wise men, is he?"
21696kill Nuna?
21696my son,"said Kunelik;"can we not at least keep up heart?
21696no dogs?"
21696no sleigh?
21696or have you slept longer than usual, to make you a better match for the young men?"
21696remarked Okiok pitifully;"had they no lands of their own?"
21696returned the seaman, who did not feel flattered by the compliment;"is it long since he died?"
21696said I--`do I know my own mother?''
21696shouted Simek, with an excited look;"have you songs?
21696the singing duel with Okiok?"
21696wha''s dat?"
21696what dynamitic capacities of swift explosion might not underlie that fearless expression?
21696what is Tumbler putting on?"
21696your rival?"
