| 34343 | Trying to hide yourselves, are you? |
| 34343 | Was he chained up? |
| 34343 | Was there no one at the inn this evening, that you were able to come? |
| 34343 | We could n''t keep up with you.... Are n''t you tired?... |
| 34343 | We did as much, Mummy Tyl and I, when we were young, did n''t we, old lady? |
| 34343 | Well, Tyltyl, do n''t you know me? |
| 34343 | Well, well, you have set us our task, but you have made it very difficult: how is one to select when all are equally beautiful? |
| 34343 | Well?... |
| 34343 | Were n''t they married? |
| 34343 | Were you so very unhappy? |
| 34343 | What am I to do?... |
| 34343 | What bread would you eat if you had no flour? |
| 34343 | What children? |
| 34343 | What did you do? |
| 34343 | What do they know about it?... |
| 34343 | What do you mean; you do n''t know? |
| 34343 | What do you mean? |
| 34343 | What do you mean? |
| 34343 | What does it mean? |
| 34343 | What happened?... |
| 34343 | What has come over you? |
| 34343 | What has happened to you? |
| 34343 | What has happened? |
| 34343 | What have you been doing ever since I saw you last?... |
| 34343 | What have you been doing? |
| 34343 | What have you come for?... |
| 34343 | What have you done with your jacket and your green hat? |
| 34343 | What have you done with your poor old father? |
| 34343 | What is it?... |
| 34343 | What shall I do? |
| 34343 | What shall I put on?... |
| 34343 | What sort of place can this be? |
| 34343 | What will happen? |
| 34343 | What''s the matter with her?... |
| 34343 | What''s the matter with you, Belline dear? |
| 34343 | What''s the matter? |
| 34343 | What''s the matter? |
| 34343 | What''s this? |
| 34343 | What''s your name, my dear? |
| 34343 | What?... |
| 34343 | Where am I to go? |
| 34343 | Where are their wives? |
| 34343 | Where are they going? |
| 34343 | Where do I come in? |
| 34343 | Where do you come from?... |
| 34343 | Where have I seen you before?... |
| 34343 | Where is he?... |
| 34343 | Where is she?... |
| 34343 | Where is she?... |
| 34343 | Where is she?... |
| 34343 | Where is your green hat? |
| 34343 | Where was she?... |
| 34343 | Where were you?... |
| 34343 | Where?... |
| 34343 | Which is the prettiest? |
| 34343 | Which way round am I to turn it? |
| 34343 | Which way shall we go out? |
| 34343 | Who are you? |
| 34343 | Who are you? |
| 34343 | Who are you?... |
| 34343 | Who does know, if you do n''t? |
| 34343 | Who is that coming in? |
| 34343 | Who is this gentleman? |
| 34343 | Who''s come to disturb us now? |
| 34343 | Who''s that?... |
| 34343 | Who''s there? |
| 34343 | Who''s there? |
| 34343 | Who''s there? |
| 34343 | Who''s there?... |
| 34343 | Who''s"they"? |
| 34343 | Whom am I in love with? |
| 34343 | Whom are you in love with? |
| 34343 | Whom can it belong to? |
| 34343 | Why should I be?... |
| 34343 | Will they all come in together? |
| 34343 | Will they understand, will they be able to understand? |
| 34343 | Will you take him for a moment? |
| 34343 | Wo n''t you have me for your mamma? |
| 34343 | Wo n''t you sit down while you wait? |
| 34343 | Would you mind coming a little nearer, dear ladies?... |
| 34343 | You call that working, do you? |
| 34343 | You must forgive me; I am rather in a hurry.... Jalline dear, you have n''t hurt your foot, have you?... |
| 34343 | You prefer to stand up?... |
| 34343 | You see the little man shutting up his shop? |
| 34343 | You seem to be less tall and less broad.... You''re not ill, are you?... |
| 34343 | You shall be the first to be spent; I''ll give you to a beggar, do you hear?... |
| 34343 | You too? |
| 34343 | You''ll never guess.... Do you remember our neighbour? |
| 34343 | You''re better, are n''t you?... |
| 34343 | You''re no longer cold? |
| 34343 | You''re not angry with me? |
| 34343 | You''re there, are you? |
| 34343 | You, Aimette?... |
| 8606 | (_ Angrily flinging down the dead bodies of the birds_) Oh, this is too bad?... |
| 8606 | (_ Entreatingly_) Grandad, granny, will you give him to me?... |
| 8606 | (_ Going to the bread- pan and opening it_) Where''s Bread?.... |
| 8606 | (_ Pointing to the diamond_) When you hold it like this, do you see?... |
| 8606 | (_ To the_ HAPPINESS) Who are you?... |
| 8606 | (_ To the_ LIME- TREE,_ who comes forward quietly smoking his pipe_) Do you know them, Daddy Lime- Tree?... |
| 8606 | A few poor minutes.... TYLTYL Are n''t you glad to be back?... |
| 8606 | ANOTHER CHILD(_ wheeling a blue barrow with blue melons bigger than pumpkins_) What do you say to my little melons?... |
| 8606 | Ah, is that you, Fir- Tree?... |
| 8606 | All right?... |
| 8606 | Am I pretty or ugly?... |
| 8606 | Am I young or old?... |
| 8606 | Am I?... |
| 8606 | And I shall always be very clean.... And I shall never steal anything in the kitchen again.... Shall I do a wonderful trick for you?... |
| 8606 | And my little dead sisters, are they here too?... |
| 8606 | And what did daddy say?... |
| 8606 | And you too, Sugar and Bread, who told you to leave me?... |
| 8606 | And you, Tylô?... |
| 8606 | And you, what are you bringing?... |
| 8606 | And, after that, what will you do?... |
| 8606 | Are my cheeks pink or yellow?... |
| 8606 | Are n''t you ashamed of yourselves?... |
| 8606 | Are n''t you coming? |
| 8606 | Are there ladders?... |
| 8606 | Are there many of them?... |
| 8606 | Are they all rich here?... |
| 8606 | Are they displeased?... |
| 8606 | Are they little? |
| 8606 | Are they made of sugar or of precious stones?... |
| 8606 | Are they making pearls?... |
| 8606 | Are they not happy?... |
| 8606 | Are they poor people from the country?... |
| 8606 | Are those your two little boys?... |
| 8606 | Are we near mummy?... |
| 8606 | Are you afraid of the little girl?... |
| 8606 | Are you all here?... |
| 8606 | Are you bringing us something?... |
| 8606 | Are you coming to us?... |
| 8606 | Are you leaving us too?... |
| 8606 | Are you mad?... |
| 8606 | Are you serious?... |
| 8606 | Are you there still?... |
| 8606 | BREAD Do they have any eating as well? |
| 8606 | BREAD In case of danger, which is the way of escape?... |
| 8606 | BREAD(_ speaking with his mouth full_) Ca n''t you keep a civil tongue in your mouth?... |
| 8606 | BREAD(_ very anxiously_) Is it dangerous?... |
| 8606 | BREAD(_ waddling conceitedly_) Well?... |
| 8606 | Believe me, that''s because of the moss; you put too much of it on your feet.... Is the Blue Bird still with you?... |
| 8606 | Besides, I want to speak to the tall blue person.... TYLTYL(_ going up to the_ BLUE CHILD_ and holding out his hand_) How do you do?... |
| 8606 | Besides, the door will not open till the hour strikes.... TYLTYL What hour?... |
| 8606 | Bread, what are you doing?... |
| 8606 | Bribe him?... |
| 8606 | But Father Christmas wo n''t bring us anything this year.... MYTYL Why not? |
| 8606 | But come, are we ready?... |
| 8606 | But do n''t trouble; we have much better things.... You shall share our life, you shall see all that we do.... TYLTYL What do you do? |
| 8606 | But he will come next year.... MYTYL Is next year far off?... |
| 8606 | But he will come to the rich children to- night.... MYTYL Really?... |
| 8606 | But how did you manage to come up here and to find a road for which men have been seeking ever since they began to dwell upon the Earth?... |
| 8606 | But it is pleasant also to wake up from time to time.... TYLTYL So you are not really dead?... |
| 8606 | But we are not allowed to ask them.... TYLTYL Why not?... |
| 8606 | But what''s the matter with you?... |
| 8606 | But why does she hide herself?... |
| 8606 | But why have all of you tears in your eyes?... |
| 8606 | But you, my dear Tylô?... |
| 8606 | But, my poor boy, did n''t you know?... |
| 8606 | Ca n''t you throw off your rheumatism?... |
| 8606 | Can she walk?... |
| 8606 | Can we light it?... |
| 8606 | Come here at once, will you? |
| 8606 | Come on to my lap.... GAFFER TYL And what about me?... |
| 8606 | DADDY TYL Well, what''s the matter?... |
| 8606 | DADDY TYL What is it?... |
| 8606 | Did you feel very sad?... |
| 8606 | Did you see them?... |
| 8606 | Do n''t you know your mother''s love when you see it?... |
| 8606 | Do they do nothing?... |
| 8606 | Do you give it me like that, straight away and for nothing?... |
| 8606 | Do you hear?... |
| 8606 | Do you hear?... |
| 8606 | Do you mean it?... |
| 8606 | Do you recognise me?... |
| 8606 | Do you remember the time when, before the coming of the despot, we wandered at liberty upon the face of the earth?... |
| 8606 | Do you remember, in the forest?... |
| 8606 | Do you see them?... |
| 8606 | Do you want any more?... |
| 8606 | Does he still sing?... |
| 8606 | Does it make a noise?... |
| 8606 | Does n''t it do any work like the one at home?... |
| 8606 | Does she never show her face?... |
| 8606 | Does the Liquorice no longer look after you?... |
| 8606 | GAFFER TYL Oh, yes; not bad, not bad; and, if one could just have a smoke.... TYLTYL Are n''t you allowed to smoke?... |
| 8606 | GAFFER TYL What do you say?... |
| 8606 | GAFFER TYL Yes, perhaps, perhaps.... What do you think, granny?... |
| 8606 | GAFFER TYL Yes, that was the word.... What does it mean?... |
| 8606 | GRANNY TYL Certainly, certainly.... What use is he to us?... |
| 8606 | GRANNY TYL No, no.... Come to me first.... How are Daddy and Mummy Tyl?... |
| 8606 | GRANNY TYL(_ amazed_) What''s that?... |
| 8606 | Have n''t they got over it yet?... |
| 8606 | Have you all you want?... |
| 8606 | Have you forgotten nothing?... |
| 8606 | Have you got the new turnscrew?... |
| 8606 | Have you had enough?... |
| 8606 | Have you had plenty of work this year?... |
| 8606 | Have you invented something?... |
| 8606 | Have you many of them?... |
| 8606 | Have you nothing to say to us?... |
| 8606 | He crackles and laughs to make Water angry....(_ Running to the tap_) And Water?... |
| 8606 | He does n''t know: well, what do you expect? |
| 8606 | He does n''t want to?... |
| 8606 | He is very tiresome.... A CHILD(_ running up from the back of the hall and elbowing his way through the crowd_) How are you, TYLTYL?... |
| 8606 | He looks far from well this evening.... Do n''t you think he is growing very old?... |
| 8606 | He wants to hurt me.... MYTYL(_ to the_ DOG) Leave him alone, will you, you ugly beast?... |
| 8606 | Here, we have them always.... TYLTYL That''s different.... GRANNY TYL What? |
| 8606 | How are you?... |
| 8606 | How are you?... |
| 8606 | How dare she interfere, how dare she?... |
| 8606 | How dare you?... |
| 8606 | How did you get in?... |
| 8606 | How do you do?... |
| 8606 | How do you see me?... |
| 8606 | How does he know my name?... |
| 8606 | How is that done?... |
| 8606 | How old are you?... |
| 8606 | I am never afraid; but if you went away, I should go too.... TYLTYL And has the Cat nothing to say?... |
| 8606 | I am used to burning them.... Time was when I burnt them all; that was much more amusing than nowadays... TYLTYL And why Is Tylô trembling?... |
| 8606 | I am very glad to have kissed you both beforehand.... Tell daddy to mend the cradle.... Is it comfortable in our home?... |
| 8606 | I am worn out.... NIGHT What''s the matter, child?... |
| 8606 | I beg your pardon?... |
| 8606 | I can not understand Man, these last few years.... What is he aiming at?... |
| 8606 | I do not hear the Animals.... Where are they?... |
| 8606 | I feel a little sad, because I am leaving you.... TYLTYL Leaving us?... |
| 8606 | I had never seen.... And my hands are frozen.... NIGHT It will be worse presently if you go on.... TYLTYL(_ going to the next door_) And this one?... |
| 8606 | I have brought you here in order to discuss the position in which we are placed.... Are we all here?... |
| 8606 | I have managed to escape for a moment to warn you; but I greatly fear that there is nothing to be done.... NIGHT Why?... |
| 8606 | I have n''t changed my face since last night.... Why do you stare at me in that wonderstruck way?... |
| 8606 | I have never seen him.... TYLTYL Yes, yes.... Light told me that he was here; and Light knows what she is saying.... Will you hand me your keys?... |
| 8606 | I know there are people who say that they do n''t see any; but you''re not one of those wicked, blind people, I should hope?... |
| 8606 | I left a note to explain.... MUMMY TYL What are you talking about?... |
| 8606 | I put you to bed last night, and here you are this morning.... Have you dreamed all that?... |
| 8606 | I recognise the wooden pin.... Are they in there?... |
| 8606 | I say, Jean, what''s become of your top?... |
| 8606 | I say, is n''t it beautiful over there?... |
| 8606 | I say, where is my cage?... |
| 8606 | I shall be born in twelve years.... Is it nice to be born?... |
| 8606 | I shall be the gardener of the King of the Three Planets.... TYLTYL The King of the Three Planets? |
| 8606 | I shall leave you alone with Mytyl.... TYLTYL And may not Tylô stay with us?... |
| 8606 | I used to darn them once, you know.... Why do n''t you come to see us oftener?... |
| 8606 | I was right at the other end of the hall, packing up my ideas.... Tell mummy that I am ready.... TYLTYL What?... |
| 8606 | I''m going to eat her first.... TYLTYL What have I done to you?... |
| 8606 | I''m in the chair at this meeting.... FIRE Who made you chairman?... |
| 8606 | I?... |
| 8606 | If any of you should find him, would you be so very kind as to give him back to us?... |
| 8606 | If they had, they would eat him at once.... Well, have you had enough of it?... |
| 8606 | In any case, it Is a chance which we must not neglect.... Well, Bread, the cage? |
| 8606 | Is Bread daring to be impertinent?... |
| 8606 | Is every one at his post?... |
| 8606 | Is everybody going?... |
| 8606 | Is he afraid, too?... |
| 8606 | Is he with you?... |
| 8606 | Is it silk, silver or pearls?... |
| 8606 | Is it you?... |
| 8606 | Is my nose turned upside down, by any chance?... |
| 8606 | Is that the way you obey? |
| 8606 | Is there any danger?... |
| 8606 | Is there long to wait?... |
| 8606 | Is this terrible also?... |
| 8606 | It appears to have been alarming?... |
| 8606 | It escapes on every side.... Do you see it on my hands? |
| 8606 | It is a serious moment; the child must be done away with before it is too late.... TYLTYL What is he saying?... |
| 8606 | It is almost finished.... Would you like to see it?... |
| 8606 | It is better not to mention her name.... TYLTYL Why?... |
| 8606 | It is just possible that the chief Happiness of your home knows where he is.... TYLTYL Where Is he?... |
| 8606 | It is the house which we left one evening, just a year ago, to a day.... TYLTYL Just a year ago?... |
| 8606 | It needs must be; it''s all there is on this Earth.... LIGHT Do you think so?... |
| 8606 | It never strikes.... GAFFER TYL Because we no longer think of the time.... Was any one thinking of the time?... |
| 8606 | It seems likely that the Blue Bird does not exist or that he changes colour when he is caged.... TYLTYL Where is the cage?... |
| 8606 | It was not like that last year.... DADDY TYL Last year?... |
| 8606 | It was on All- hallows, when the church- bells were ringing.... TYLTYL All- hallows?... |
| 8606 | It will not do for Time to discover us.... TYLTYL Where does that noise come from?... |
| 8606 | It''s an easy thing to say when one''s afraid and stays at home.... TYLTYL Let us go to the next.... What is in here?... |
| 8606 | It''s for my little girl, who is very ill. TYLTYL What''s the matter with her?... |
| 8606 | It''s just as it was, but it''s much prettier.... DADDY TYL How do you mean, it''s prettier?... |
| 8606 | It''s most engrossing.... TYLTYL Is it amusing? |
| 8606 | It''s much finer than the other; it''s bigger and brighter and blue as the sky.... And my hair, do you see that?... |
| 8606 | It''s on the way to the Blue Bird, just on the left, past the third turning.... What were you doing when I knocked?... |
| 8606 | It''s rather curious, is n''t it?... |
| 8606 | It''s the cricket chirping.... MUMMY TYL Can you see them?... |
| 8606 | It''s very chilly this morning.... Good- morning, children, how are you?... |
| 8606 | Just say that again, will you, to see if I heard right?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT And does n''t that remind you of anything?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT Because it is the earth''s secret.... TYLTYL And may one talk to the others, the little ones?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT Because they themselves are not alive yet.... TYLTYL What are they doing, then?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT Here come some amiable and curious Joys who will direct us.... TYLTYL Do you know them?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT It is not when one laughs that one is really happy.... TYLTYL Who are they?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT Look at the children running up.... TYLTYL Are they angry?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT Perhaps it''s myself.... Who can tell?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT They are awaiting the hour of their birth.... TYLTYL The hour of their birth?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT They are the Children''s Happinesses.... TYLTYL Can one speak to them? |
| 8606 | LIGHT They can not enter here; they would know the future and would not obey.... TYLTYL And the Dog?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT What is it?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT What is it?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT Whatever you like, as you would to a little playfellow.... TYLTYL Can I shake hands with him?... |
| 8606 | LIGHT Why, no, here, as everywhere, there are many more poor than rich.... TYLTYL Where are the poor ones?... |
| 8606 | Let''s open the shutters.... MYTYL Can we?... |
| 8606 | Light?... |
| 8606 | MATERNAL LOVE Why yes, it is the very same: did you never see that it becomes quite white and fills with light the moment it fondles you?... |
| 8606 | MILK(_ approaching timidly_) And me in the milk- jug.... TYLTYL What, you too, my dear Milk, so shy and so good?... |
| 8606 | MUMMY TYL Well, Tyltyl, what''s the matter?.... |
| 8606 | MUMMY TYL What are you spinning round for like that?.... |
| 8606 | MUMMY TYL What journey?... |
| 8606 | MUMMY TYL What''s the matter?... |
| 8606 | MUMMY TYL Why Mytyl?... |
| 8606 | MUMMY TYL Why, of course, it''s I.... Who did you think it was?... |
| 8606 | MUMMY TYL Why?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL And what will they say?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL And where are my three little brothers who were buried?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Are they angry?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Are you?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Do they go out when it''s fine?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Good- morning, sir....(_ To the_ FAIRY) Who is it?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Have you ever seen one?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Is this where it begins?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL On New Year''s Day and the fourteenth of July.... Mummy makes them.... TYLTYL What have you got in that bag?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Say, is this Christmas Day?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Tyltyl? |
| 8606 | MYTYL What are those gold things there, hanging from the branches? |
| 8606 | MYTYL What are those people doing who are making such a noise?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL What are those, whom one can hardly see?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL What is he doing?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL What party?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL What tree?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL What?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Where are Sugar, the Cat and Bread?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Why do n''t they eat them at once?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL Why not?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL(_ greatly alarmed_) What does he want?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL(_ looking in the grass_) Where are the dead?.... |
| 8606 | MYTYL(_ pointing to the slabs_) Are those the doors of their houses?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL(_ pressing the_ CAT_ in her arms_) My poor Tylette, where has he hurt you?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL(_ reassured_) Has he any barley- sugar?... |
| 8606 | MYTYL(_ to the_ CAT) And you, Tylette?... |
| 8606 | Must I be careful in opening?... |
| 8606 | Must he absolutely know everything?... |
| 8606 | Mytyl, do you see the bird? |
| 8606 | Mytyl, do you see the cage?... |
| 8606 | Mytyl, where are you?.... |
| 8606 | NIGHT Dangerous?... |
| 8606 | NIGHT Have n''t they got him?... |
| 8606 | NIGHT That is because he sleeps well.... TYLTYL And the other, hiding himself?... |
| 8606 | NIGHT This is where I lock up the Shades and the Terrors.... TYLTYL Can I open the door?... |
| 8606 | NIGHT What?... |
| 8606 | NIGHT(_ looking into the cavern in her turn_) Well, Shades, what are you doing?... |
| 8606 | No one could count them.... TYLTYL And those tall blue persons, who are they?... |
| 8606 | No, no, do n''t go away.... MUMMY TYL Light?... |
| 8606 | Nor you either, Mytyl?... |
| 8606 | Nor you either; go in and return in ten years.... A thirteenth shepherd?... |
| 8606 | Not even a tiny cake? |
| 8606 | Nothing at all, empty- handed?... |
| 8606 | Now he''s using words we do n''t understand.... Is it a new word, a new invention?... |
| 8606 | Now then, who wants some more?... |
| 8606 | ONE OF THE CHILDREN(_ carrying the grapes_) What do you say to my fruits?... |
| 8606 | Perhaps you''ll say I have a hump?... |
| 8606 | SUGAR I see the Dog coming out of the Fairy''s wardrobe.... FIRE What on earth has he got on?... |
| 8606 | SUGAR(_ modestly_) Yes; as many as I want.... MYTYL Does that hurt you much, when you break them off?... |
| 8606 | Shall I beg?... |
| 8606 | Shall I do some of my tricks?... |
| 8606 | Shall we have any? |
| 8606 | So you would rather go on living in your ugly boxes, in your traps and taps, than accompany the children in search of the bird?... |
| 8606 | So, really, you''ve really given him to me?... |
| 8606 | Still asleep, am I?... |
| 8606 | Still got your cold?... |
| 8606 | Stop that, will you?... |
| 8606 | Swords, guns, soldiers, cannons.... MYTYL And dolls; say, are there any dolls?... |
| 8606 | THE BIGGEST OF THE LUXURIES(_ holding out his hand to_ TYLTYL) How do you do, Tyltyl?... |
| 8606 | THE BLUE CHILDREN He does n''t want to, sir.... TIME What?... |
| 8606 | THE BULL(_ coming forward_) The most practical and the surest way is a good butt with the horns in the pit of the stomach.... Shall I go at him?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT And then?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT And what answer did the Fairy make?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT Are we not, all of us, Water, Fire you yourselves, Bread and the Dog, the victims of a nameless tyranny?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT Come, do n''t let as quarrel; we have more important things to do.... We are only waiting for Bread; where is he? |
| 8606 | THE CAT I shall take the opportunity of calling on the chief Miseries of my acquaintance, who live next door to the Joys.... TYLTYL And you, Light? |
| 8606 | THE CAT So did mine.... What is going to happen?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT Why?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT(_ aside, to_ TYLTYL) Do you allow this disobedience?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT(_ mysteriously_) I know what''s what.... TYLTYL(_ to LIGHT_) Are you coming with us?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT(_ to the_ LOAF) Are the children dressed?... |
| 8606 | THE CAT(_ to_ WATER) Is that Catskin''s"colour- of- time"dress?... |
| 8606 | THE CHESTNUT- TREE(_ affectedly adjusting his eyeglass_) Who are these?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD After that?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD An old man who comes to call those who are going.... TYLTYL Is he wicked?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD And the food?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Does it come from the eyes?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Does one often cry?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Has yours gone?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD How did you manage?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD I am bringing three illnesses: scarlatina, whooping- cough and measles.... TYLTYL Oh, that''s all, is it?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Is it cold on earth?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD No; I do n''t know how.... TYLTYL Well, you will learn.... What are you playing with, those great blue wings?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD No; they are very comical.... They are the Lovers.... TYLTYL What is that?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD No; what is it for?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Not yet; but he will become so.... Look at him well; it seems that he is to conquer Death.... TYLTYL What does that mean?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD These?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD They are thinking of something.... TYLTYL Of what?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD They die?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD What does that mean, crying?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD What does that mean, when it''s cold?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD What is it, then?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD What is money?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD What is that called?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD What is the matter with your eyes?.... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Why is there no fire?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Why not?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Why, yes; have n''t you heard?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD Why?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD You shall see.... Time is drawing the bolts.... TYLTYL Who is Time?... |
| 8606 | THE CHILD(_ gravely touching_ TYLTYL''S_ hat_) And that?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG Are you very badly hurt, my little god?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG I should like to know which one.... MYTYL(_ stroking the_ CAT) My poor Tylette, did he really?.... |
| 8606 | THE DOG I?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG Shall I take them from her by force, my little god?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG What''s that?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG Who?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG(_ cringing at_ TYLTYL''S_ feet and wagging his tail_) What am I to do, my little god? |
| 8606 | THE DOG(_ indignantly_) What''s the fellow saying?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG(_ looking at the dead birds_)) Are they good to eat?.... |
| 8606 | THE DOG(_ prowling round the_ OAK_ and showing his fangs_) Do you see my teeth, you old cripple?... |
| 8606 | THE DOG(_ suddenly sobered_) To part from these poor children?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY And your grandpapa and grandmamma?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY And your little brothers and sisters.... Have you any?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Are n''t you cross with them?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Do n''t you see? |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Do you know who I am?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Have you any cakes?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Have you the grass here that sings or the bird that is blue?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY He wo n''t see it; no one can see it as long as it''s on your head.... Will you try it?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY How can they be dead, when they live in your memory?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Oh, yes, to look at you, any one would think it enormous.... Have I a hook nose and have I lost one of my eyes?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY That''s the big diamond that makes people see.... TYLTYL Really?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY We do n''t quite know; she wants to be happy.... TYLTYL Really?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Well?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY What''s the matter?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY What, you too?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Where are they?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Why not?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Why, do n''t you see? |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Would you like to see them again?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY Yes; when you''ve got the hat on your head, you turn the diamond a little; from right to left, for instance, like this; do you see?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY You shall see them at once.... TYLTYL How can we see them, when they are dead?... |
| 8606 | THE FAIRY(_ to_ LIGHT,_ who is dreamily gazing at the wreckage of her lamp_) And you, Light, what do you say? |
| 8606 | THE HAPPINESS Do n''t you recognise her yet?... |
| 8606 | THE HAPPINESS Do n''t you recognise me?... |
| 8606 | THE HAPPINESS How do you do, Tyltyl?... |
| 8606 | THE HAPPINESS It is before a new Joy who is arriving, perhaps the purest that we have here.... TYLTYL Who is it? |
| 8606 | THE HAPPINESS There, do you hear?... |
| 8606 | THE HAPPINESS They are the Great Joys.... TYLTYL Do you know their names?... |
| 8606 | THE HAPPINESS Those are the Joys whom men do not yet know.... TYLTYL What do the others want with us?... |
| 8606 | THE IVY(_ timorously going up to the_ DOG) Wo n''t he bite?... |
| 8606 | THE IVY(_ who has tied up the_ DOG_ like a parcel_) Where shall we put him?... |
| 8606 | THE JOY OF BEING JUST(_ embracing_ LIGHT_ in her turn_) Do you recognise me?... |
| 8606 | THE JOY OF SEEING WHAT IS BEAUTIFUL(_ also embracing_ LIGHT) Do you recognise me?... |
| 8606 | THE LIME- TREE(_ in a conciliatory tone_) Come, come.... Is it really necessary to go to such extremities?... |
| 8606 | THE LITTLE BLUE CHILD They will grow like that when I am on earth.... TYLTYL When will that be?... |
| 8606 | THE LITTLE GIRL How does he eat, say?... |
| 8606 | THE LITTLE GIRL Not yet.... What does he eat?... |
| 8606 | THE LITTLE GIRL That does n''t matter; he''s lovely.... TYLTYL Has he had anything to eat?... |
| 8606 | THE LUXURY The Blue Bird?... |
| 8606 | THE LUXURY(_ pointing to_ LIGHT,_ aside, to_ TYLTYL) Who is that ill- bred young person?... |
| 8606 | THE NEIGHBOUR Béry... what? |
| 8606 | THE NEIGHBOUR Can she walk?... |
| 8606 | THE NEIGHBOUR Do you see the miracle?... |
| 8606 | THE NEIGHBOUR Really?... |
| 8606 | THE NEIGHBOUR What are they saying?... |
| 8606 | THE NEIGHBOUR What is he saying?... |
| 8606 | THE NEIGHBOUR Why, Tyltyl, do n''t you remember Goody Berlingot, your Neighbour Berlingot?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK Are all here present?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK Is that done?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK Is that the Dog?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK Is that the Fir- tree speaking?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK So there is a renegade among us, as among the Animals?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK Tyltyl, the wood- cutter''s son?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK What have you come here for; and why have you made our souls leave their abodes?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK Who speaks?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK Who speaks?... |
| 8606 | THE OAK(_ to_ TYLTYL) Who are you?.... |
| 8606 | THE OX_ and_ THE COW(_ holding him back by the tail_) What are you doing?... |
| 8606 | THE POPLAR Me?... |
| 8606 | THE POPLAR(_ running up first and screaming at the top of his voice_) Men?... |
| 8606 | TIME(_ dumbfoundered and furious_) What''s that?... |
| 8606 | TIME(_ on the threshold_) Are they ready whose hour has struck?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL And Bread, where''s Bread?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL And Pauline still has a pimple on her nose.... MUMMY TYL Have you found the key of the cupboard where daddy hides his brandy bottle?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL And the frightened lady in her nightgown?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL And those others, over there, in spun glass?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL And who is that wet lady?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Are there many of them? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Are you asleep? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Are you coming with us? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Because that is when they go out to take the air.... MYTYL Is it not midnight yet?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Because they are in their shirts.... MYTYL Do they go out also when it rains?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Because they are not rich.... Are you rich?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Because they have nothing to say.... MYTYL Why have they nothing to say?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Because they''re not hungry.... MYTYL(_ stupefied with astonishment_) Not hungry?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL But where are Tylette and Tylô gone to?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Can we go up to them? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Do n''t they come out? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Do you see the church clock?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Does daddy hide a brandy bottle?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Dolls?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Here, under the grass or under those big stones.... MYTYL Are they there all the year round?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Hold your tongue, keep quiet and try to behave....(_ To_NIGHT) Come, madam, give me your keys, please.... NIGHT Have you the sign, at least?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL How can one tell?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Is he blue enough?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Is it nice here?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Is this the place?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL It''s this way, Mytyl.... MYTYL Where is Light?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Let''s get up.... MYTYL But we must n''t.... TYLTYL Why, there''s no one about.... Do you see the shutters?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL My grandmamma?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Mytyl? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL No; how can I be asleep when I''m talking to you? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Not little boys, but little girls do.... Do n''t you cry here?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Of course; there''s no one to stop us.... Do you hear the music?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Of course; what else would they do with them?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Oh, no, I do n''t say that.... Who put it out?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL On the left?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Quite white, very still and very cold and it did n''t talk.... MYTYL Are we going to see them, say?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL She was with me.... We saw grandad and granny.... MUMMY TYL(_ more and more bewildered_) Grandad and granny?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL So you''ve made up your minds, it''s me you''re going for?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL That depends.... We even have cakes sometimes, do n''t we, Mytyl?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL That?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL The word"dead"?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL They can only go out at night.... MYTYL Why?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL They eat roots.... MYTYL Shall we see them?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL They say it''s very cramped.... MYTYL Have they any little children?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL They say so.... MYTYL Will they eat them all?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL They will say nothing, as they do n''t talk.... MYTYL Why do n''t they talk?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL To whom?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Very much.... Where is it?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL We were playing at eating cakes?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Well, they eat whenever they want to.... MYTYL(_ incredulously_) Every day?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL What are they?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL What do you say?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL What for?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL What is that?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL What, mummy?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL What? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL What?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL When it rains, they stay at home.... MYTYL Is it nice in their homes, say?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Where are they?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Where?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Where?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Who are those fat gentlemen enjoying themselves and eating such a lot of good things? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Who are those ugly little men?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Why do they call us the little live children? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Why, last year.... MUMMY TYL Last year?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Why, of course, Light said so.... MYTYL Where are they?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Why, yes!... At Christmas, when I went away.... MUMMY TYL When you went away?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Why, yes, ma''am.... You are the Fairy Bérylune.... You''re not angry with us?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Why, yes; they have all those that die.... MYTYL And what do they live on?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Yes, I was.... What is the time?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Yes, once, long ago, when I was very young.... MYTYL What was it like, say?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Yes, there''s an arrow.... MYTYL Well, where are grandad and granny?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL Yes, what is it?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL You heard Light say that I was to wait until midnight, because that disturbs them less.... MYTYL Why does that disturb them less?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL You''re a nuisance....(_ A pause_) MYTYL When will you turn the diamond? |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ after taking a long look around him_) Daddy, mummy, what have you done to the house?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ displaying a legitimate bewilderment and pointing to the Hours_) Who are all those pretty ladies?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ going to the door at the back_) Here is the great middle door.... NIGHT(_ gravely_) Do not open that one... TYLTYL Why not?.... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ going to the next door_) Let us look at this one..... What is in here?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ not too much at his ease_) I am never frightened.... MYTYL I say, are the dead wicked?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ pointing to_ LIGHT,_ who, discreetly, has drawn a little to one side_) She brought me.... MATERNAL LOVE Who is she?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ suddenly quieted and frightened_) What''s that?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ surprised_) Why are you crying?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ surprised_) Why, do you know me?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ taking his knife from his pocket_) Is it me he''s after, that old one, with his big stick?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ taking the key and climbing the first steps_) Let us begin here.... What is behind this bronze door?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ to the_ CAT) What is the matter with them?... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ to the_ FAIRY) Who is this gentleman with the dog''s head?.... |
| 8606 | TYLTYL(_ to_ LIGHT) What is that?... |
| 8606 | That is my hat.... Have you no hat?... |
| 8606 | That''s different?... |
| 8606 | That''s for the invention which I shall make on earth.... TYLTYL What invention?... |
| 8606 | That''s too silly; there''s no fun in dolls.... MYTYL And what''s that all round the table?.... |
| 8606 | The Cat tells me that you have come here to look for the Blue Bird.... TYLTYL Yes, ma''am, if you will allow me.... Will you tell me where he is?... |
| 8606 | The Living are so stupid when they speak of the Others.... TYLTYL Do you sleep all the time?... |
| 8606 | The last time you were here, let me see, when was it?... |
| 8606 | The one on the left is the child who will bring pure joy to the globe.... TYLTYL How?... |
| 8606 | The whole table''s full.... Are they going to eat them?... |
| 8606 | The_ CAT,_ aside, to_ TYLTYL,_ taking him apart_) But why have you brought the Dog?... |
| 8606 | Then it presses a bump which nobody knows of and which opens your eyes.... TYLTYL Does n''t it hurt?... |
| 8606 | There are only twelve wanted; there is no need for more; the days of Theocritus and Virgil are past.... More doctors?... |
| 8606 | There are too many already; they are grumbling about it on earth.... And where are the engineers?... |
| 8606 | There they are, on the chair.... TYLTYL Is that what I did on the journey?... |
| 8606 | There, is that better?... |
| 8606 | They are good, are n''t they?... |
| 8606 | They are playing at being happy.... TYLTYL I liked Light best of all.... Where''s her lamp?... |
| 8606 | They are very nice.... NIGHT This is Sleep.... TYLTYL Why is he so fat?... |
| 8606 | They did not invite me.... TYLTYL Which way are we to go?... |
| 8606 | They do n''t know yet.... Do they never learn anything?... |
| 8606 | They do not recognise their own hands.... TYLTYL Who is dreaming?... |
| 8606 | They must have slept in the moonbeams.... My little girl, who is very ill, is often like that.... MUMMY TYL By the way, how is your little girl?... |
| 8606 | They sha''n''t see me.... Shall I beg?... |
| 8606 | They sing, they dance, they laugh, but they do not talk yet.... TYLTYL(_ skipping about_) How do you do? |
| 8606 | They spend the day looking into each other''s eyes, kissing and bidding each other farewell.... TYLTYL Why?... |
| 8606 | They want an honest man, only one, as a phenomenon.... Where is the honest man?... |
| 8606 | They were all seated like monsters without eyes.... Who was the giant who tried to seize me?... |
| 8606 | They will probably invite you to dinner.... Do not accept, do not accept anything, lest you should forget your mission.... TYLTYL What? |
| 8606 | They''re little girls.... MYTYL They''ve got knickerbockers.... TYLTYL What do you know?... |
| 8606 | This door is closed to us and I must leave you.... TYLTYL Where will you go all alone?... |
| 8606 | This is a darker one.... What is here? |
| 8606 | This is the hour when the children who are to be born to- day go down to earth.... TYLTYL How will they go down?... |
| 8606 | Turn the diamond.... TYLTYL Where shall I stand?... |
| 8606 | Tyltyl, are n''t you laughing?... |
| 8606 | Tylô''s also?... |
| 8606 | WATER I am loving and gentle; I am kind to human beings.... FIRE What about those you drown?... |
| 8606 | Was it in the cupboard of which Daddy has the key?... |
| 8606 | Was it mummy who washed you?... |
| 8606 | We are only waiting for you.... Do you hear all the revellers calling and shouting for you?... |
| 8606 | We shall see them come out of the ground; or else we shall see those who do not come out lying in their tombs.... TYLTYL Will they not be angry?... |
| 8606 | We will go out this way and the children that.... TYLTYL(_ rather anxiously_) Are we to go all alone?... |
| 8606 | Well, answer me, will you? |
| 8606 | Well, what is it?... |
| 8606 | Well, what''s the matter with you?... |
| 8606 | Well?... |
| 8606 | Were they mad?... |
| 8606 | What are they doing?... |
| 8606 | What are they?... |
| 8606 | What are you doing here?... |
| 8606 | What are you doing in that corner?... |
| 8606 | What are you doing there, without permission? |
| 8606 | What are you interfering with?... |
| 8606 | What are you waiting for?... |
| 8606 | What can his age be?... |
| 8606 | What did I tell you?... |
| 8606 | What did you say?... |
| 8606 | What do I look like?... |
| 8606 | What do you mean?... |
| 8606 | What do you say?... |
| 8606 | What do you think of this? |
| 8606 | What does it matter?... |
| 8606 | What does she say?... |
| 8606 | What has happened?... |
| 8606 | What has happened?... |
| 8606 | What has happened?... |
| 8606 | What have I done?... |
| 8606 | What have they done to them?... |
| 8606 | What is he driving at?... |
| 8606 | What is he saying?... |
| 8606 | What is his name?... |
| 8606 | What is it, Light?... |
| 8606 | What is it?... |
| 8606 | What is that?... |
| 8606 | What was the matter with them?... |
| 8606 | What would Light say?... |
| 8606 | What would you be without me?... |
| 8606 | What''s that shining in the cockade?... |
| 8606 | What''s that?... |
| 8606 | What''s the matter with you?... |
| 8606 | What''s the matter?... |
| 8606 | What, do I find you here?... |
| 8606 | When I am on earth, I shall have to invent the thing that gives happiness.... TYLTYL Is it good to eat?... |
| 8606 | When bidding them farewell, with all the grief and all the fondness which a mutual esteem.... TYLTYL What?... |
| 8606 | When can I have the Blue Bird?... |
| 8606 | Where are they going?... |
| 8606 | Where are they?... |
| 8606 | Where are we?... |
| 8606 | Where are your father and mother?.... |
| 8606 | Where do they come from, who are they?... |
| 8606 | Where do they come from?... |
| 8606 | Where does the little monster think he is?... |
| 8606 | Where is Sugar?... |
| 8606 | Where is he?... |
| 8606 | Where is he?... |
| 8606 | Where is it?... |
| 8606 | Where is she?... |
| 8606 | Where is the Cat?... |
| 8606 | Where is the bird?... |
| 8606 | Where used you to hide it?... |
| 8606 | Where were you?... |
| 8606 | Which one is it?... |
| 8606 | Who are they?... |
| 8606 | Who are you?... |
| 8606 | Who are you?... |
| 8606 | Who asked your opinions?... |
| 8606 | Who is speaking?... |
| 8606 | Who killed them?... |
| 8606 | Who''s holding me back?... |
| 8606 | Who''s taken my little green hat?... |
| 8606 | Who?... |
| 8606 | Why are they not laughing?... |
| 8606 | Why are they standing aside?... |
| 8606 | Why are you not blue?... |
| 8606 | Why do n''t you wake up?... |
| 8606 | Why does he veil his face?... Is he ill?... |
| 8606 | Why not?... |
| 8606 | Why, look at me: are these not my eyes, my lips, my arms?... |
| 8606 | Why, what''s come over you?... |
| 8606 | Why? |
| 8606 | Why?... |
| 8606 | Will that do?... |
| 8606 | Will the Fairy be angry and what will she say?... |
| 8606 | Will they give any away?... |
| 8606 | Will you know me again?... |
| 8606 | Wo n''t you answer?... |
| 8606 | Would you like me to kiss the Cat?... |
| 8606 | Would you like to see me walk on my front paws or dance on my hind- legs?... |
| 8606 | Would you rather that I tore you with my teeth or knocked you down with a kick?... |
