37668Ah,he said,"look at my plums, my lord; will you be pleased to let me go up and eat my fill?"
37668Ah,said Magtelt,"must thou go so far away, Anne- Mie?"
37668Ah,said My Lord Jesus,"that is a great sin; but has he not repented of it?"
37668Ah,said the lovers to one another,"saw you that silvern armour and that flaming crest?
37668Ah,said the smith,"you come from the devil, Lord?"
37668Ah,she said,"I did ill not to obey thee; what must I do now, my man?"
37668Alas,she said, clinging to him and gazing into the forge,"wert thou alone there, my man?"
37668Alas,she said,"I can not understand what you are talking about, my man; have you gone mad?"
37668All this is ours?
37668And by virtue of what didst thou merit this rare and blessed favour?
37668And did this great saint appear to thee by especial miracle?
37668And have not come here to tell us temperance stories?
37668And this child whom I see naked,said Smetse,"does he not oftentimes suffer from the cold?"
37668And thou wilt dare to beat me as thou didst Jacob Hessels and my faithful duke?
37668And to drink also?
37668And what is the name,said Blaeskaek,"of this merry boy?"
37668And whence,said Blaeskaek,"hast thou gotten all this black melancholy?"
37668And who,quoth he,"has slain all these scoundrels in this wise?"
37668And why not, wife?
37668And why,said the Duke,"should they boil one of my good men of Uccle?"
37668And wilt tell me what they are?
37668And you are ready to defend them as best you can?
37668And your little daughters, so sweet and winsome?
37668And your sons?
37668And,said he,"art thou not chilled, riding thus in the snow?"
37668And,said he,"hast thou no fear, here at my side and on my own land, where no one dares to set foot?"
37668Art not lying again?
37668Art thou hungry?
37668Art thou not lying?
37668Art thou there,she said,"my man?"
37668Art thou,he said,"a maid?"
37668Aye, and if the priests learn of the statue, and call us both before the tribunal, and have us burnt as heretics and idolaters, what then?
37668Baes,said certain workmen,"is it not my lord Jacob Hessels, the Bloody Councillor, who is perched up there in thy plum- tree?"
37668Baes,said the workmen, who had returned from the smithy with hammers and iron bars,"here we are at your orders; what shall we do?"
37668Baes,said the workmen,"whence comes to thee this kindness beyond measure?
37668Baes,said they,"can we not help to bring him down?"
37668Brother,she said,"may I go to Halewyn?"
37668But if,said Pieter Gans,"the priests should get wind of this statue, so shamelessly set up for all to see?"
37668But thou,said he,"wilt thou eat nothing?"
37668But, my man,said she,"canst not explain to me somewhat of all these happenings?"
37668But, wife,said Smetse,"hast ever seen this gulf whereof thou speakest?"
37668But,asked the devil,"how did this sack come into thy hands?"
37668But,he said,"who art thou, riding in my land, singing and winding the horn, who bringest hither such insolent talk?"
37668But,said he,"is it with devil''s money thou wilt pay for this mass?"
37668But,said she,"if he had not gone up into the plum- tree, what wouldst thou have done, poor beggar- man?
37668Dost thou dare?
37668Ha, My Lord,said his brother, coming boldly up to him and speaking insolently,"will you not take some of this clauwaert to hearten yourself?
37668Ha,said the Sire,"and why does this chatterer not go and joust as well as I?
37668I go,she said,"but wilt thou not come also, my man?"
37668I?
37668In what place,said he,"does this carpenter dwell, and what is his name?"
37668Jesus- Maria,said the lady Gonde,"see these two sillies, what have they been doing to get themselves clothed in snow in this fashion?
37668Master,answered the smith,"will you be pleased to let me go down to earth for one night, so that I may see my good wife and look to my affairs?"
37668My Lord, Madam, and Sir,said Smetse,"will it please you that whosoever shall sit in this chair shall not be able to rise unless I so desire?"
37668My Lord,said Smetse in a most sorrowful manner,"whither would you take me?
37668My lord father,she said,"may I go to Halewyn?"
37668My soul?
37668Oh,said the devil,"why beat me so cruelly, without pity for my white hairs?"
37668Packed,he said,"and how does my packing concern thee, master bald- pate?"
37668See ye not,said she,"whence comes to these grannies so great a rage and such a thirst for vengeance?
37668Smetse,he said,"hast packed thy bundle?"
37668Smetse,replied the fellow in a harsh voice,"hast forgotten thy restored fortunes, and the good times thou hast enjoyed, and the black paper?"
37668Smetse,said she,"will you in good truth do me no hurt?"
37668Smetse,said she,"wilt thou verily tell me nothing?"
37668Smetse,she said,"is it thou, my man?"
37668Smith,asked the devil,"are these Flemings laughing at me?"
37668Smith,said the devil, looking at Smetse with great contempt,"thou wouldst not dare beat me, I think?"
37668Then why,said she,"knowing this, hast thou not more faith in me?
37668This is good, Smetse, but didst thou persist in this fair conduct?
37668This is good, Smetse,said My Lord Jesus;"but hast thou no other merit in thy favour?"
37668This sack?
37668This, my man,she said,"is all very well, but will Master St. Peter give thee permission to set up at the gates of Paradise such a tavern?"
37668Thou wilt not?
37668Toon,cried the lady Gonde,"where is Magtelt?"
37668Toon,said she,"where is she?
37668We rich?
37668Well then, smith,said the voice,"to riches thou preferest beggary?
37668Well then,said he,"why art thou so afraid?
37668Well, mother,said he,"what didst think of our dance?
37668Well, then,asked Blaeskaek,"what must we do now?"
37668Well, wives,said he,"what brings you here with all this greenwood?"
37668Well,said Blaeskaek,"do you please to come in?"
37668Well,said Smetse,"dost find the bruinbier to thy liking; is it not the best in all the land of Flanders?
37668Well,said the Duke when he had done,"who would have thought it of these good wives?
37668What ails thee?
37668What ails thee?
37668What are they saying, smith?
37668What happenings, wife?
37668What is his name?
37668What is this thou''rt telling me?
37668What is this?
37668What wilt thou, Smetse?
37668Whence comes all this noise?
37668Who art thou?
37668Who is a better man than I? 37668 Why is that?"
37668Why,said Sir Roel,"was my son so presumptuous as to attack the Invincible?"
37668Why,said the voice,"dost not dare answer him who wishes thee naught but well?
37668Wicked son, how couldst thou think to send the little bird to the hawk, the virgin to the enemy of virgins?
37668Wife, wife,said the smith,"wilt thou never learn to hold thy tongue?"
37668Wife,said Smetse, trying to escape the wetting,"what art thou at?"
37668Wife,said Smetse,"didst see no smiths?"
37668Wife,said the smith in friendly tones,"is it thus that thou givest greeting and welcome to thy poor husband, after the long time he has been away?
37668Wilt thou or wilt thou not, smith?
37668Wilt try it?
37668Women,said the drinkers,"you wish to join us?"
37668Yes, that may be,she said, while the thirty- first porter was going past,"but''tis very strange, I can not hear their footfalls, my man?"
37668Yes, yes,said she,"for who is the well- being and joy of this house?
37668Ah, presumptuous one, must thou then go to his castle to brave the Invincible?"
37668Ah, will you not make me whole, will you not save me?
37668Alas, hast forgot our old comradeship and union?"
37668And Magtelt had great sorrow in her heart, and wept, and made lament, crying:"Anne- Mie, where art thou?
37668And crying out at the top of her voice:"Masters, you are at Smetse''s, do you not understand?
37668And dost know what manner of gulf this is, my man?
37668And he heard at the same instant a strange and scoffing voice saying:"Where goest thou, Smetse?"
37668And he said to himself:"Are they going to denounce me to the priests?"
37668And his brother said:"Where is your lordly bearing, My Lord Siewert Halewyn the elder, descendant of the Crow with the great beak?
37668And his sister said:"Welcome, my fair brother, what news do you bring?
37668And over the fine bodice?
37668And she said:"My good man, do you hear the storm raging furiously in the forest?"
37668And the damosel said:"Beautiful maid, riding so fast, hast seen my brother Halewyn?"
37668And the ladies, gentlewomen and maidens of the town, seeing him pass by on his black horse, said among themselves:"Who is this fair horseman?"
37668And the old man said:"Beautiful maid, riding so fast, hast seen my son Halewyn?"
37668And the old woman said:"Beautiful maid, riding so fast, hast seen my son Halewyn?"
37668And the young man said:"Beautiful maid, riding so fast, hast seen my brother Halewyn?"
37668And what if he will not let himself fall a second time into thy snare as he did to- day?"
37668And while he was fastening up the beast, paring his hoof and fitting the shoe, he said to the man:"Whence come you, with this woman and this ass?"
37668And while he was struggling with might and main, making a thousand vain efforts, the good smith cried joyously:"Would your highness get up?
37668And why,"said he,"if thou knowest me, wilt not come to me and touch me?"
37668Are those good greenwood staves you have brought?"
37668Are you not better than they, and will you not keep us also from the snares of the enemy?
37668Are you not thirsty, my brother, with the thirst of a baron, of a victor, I will not say of a villein?
37668Art not glad of it?"
37668Art thou angry at the loss of thy customers, Smetse?
37668Art thou become the housewife?
37668Art thou then become such a delicate feeder that thou must have cakes, fine cheeses, and full barrels?
37668Blaeskaek, where art thou, my good friend?
37668Brother, may I go to Halewyn?"
37668But I, Master, I, a poor king, who pray to you, do you disdain to make me whole also, and to save me as you would have saved him?
37668But Sir Roel to Toon:"Son, dost thou not know where she is?"
37668But are you not being well tormented in turn by my stick?
37668But hast thou no meritorious deed to tell me, to mitigate this great sin?"
37668But her mother said to her:"Where is Anne- Mie?"
37668But is it yet the appointed time?
37668But look ye, is it to male or female that belongs properly the right of command in all matters?
37668But seeing Smetse''s feet below the hem of the skirt:"This wicked smith,"he cried,"will he always be making fun of me?
37668But the Miserable:"What brings thee,"he said,"into my lands?"
37668But what is your meat and drink while you are travelling in this manner?"
37668But where is the wreath of the ladies?"
37668But who was this man who showed thee this sack with such kindness, and who gave me this terrible great blow?"
37668By this argument am I not doing my best to soften your heart to my piteous case?
37668Canst not see him in his cavern, awaiting passers- by, and devouring poor maids?"
37668Canst not see how light my heart has grown?
37668Canst not see such a one coming?"
37668Canst not smell the savoury odour of beans and good beef broiled with spices?
37668Canst see no pilgrim or wandering friar on the road?"
37668Canst thou not be content with bread and water got honestly with thy two hands?
37668Chattering magpie, wilt never learn to hold thy tongue?
37668Dear fellows, do you wish to find us dead by morning?
37668Do I not know what is in our chest?
37668Do I not say it loud enough?
37668Do not these respectful taps tell your lordly cheeks how happy, joyous, and well- liking I should be during those seven years?
37668Do you love these husbands of yours?"
37668Do you not know that the noise of their hooves troubles these three ladies in their prayers?"
37668Does he think he is cracking eggs, the faint- heart?
37668Dost not know thy man''s fat face, his round paunch, and the voice which in former days sang so readily hereabout?"
37668Dost verily think that, being freed of devils, thou hast for thine own the chattels that come from them?
37668Going in, he met on the bridge his lady mother, who said to him:"Where goest thou, Miserable, with this child?"
37668Hast ever put thy nose in to see, any more than in the bread- pan?
37668Hast no fear, maid?"
37668Hast no pennies to get drink?
37668Hast not already to- night been admonished sharply enough?
37668Have I verily gotten my good forge back again?
37668He has come to marry us, I suppose.--Who would have him, for four castles, as many manors, ten thousand peasants and half the gold in the province?
37668Ho,"said he to the cat, who was arching her back in annoyance,"hast heard, listened, and understood, devil cat?
37668How is thy fine face?
37668In the morning, at noon, and at vesper- time, at all hours and all moments, do we not have you in our minds?
37668Is he another devil, think you?
37668Is he not in Paradise, thy good man?"
37668Is it not payment enough that he should die sixteen times?
37668Is that not so, Smetse?"
37668Is the fashion coming to Ghent by and by?"
37668Is there any dust on it?
37668Knowest thou not that like him thou hast but little longer to sing?"
37668Lads,"said the smith to his workmen,"will you be pleased to hold converse with My Lord?"
37668Let come what may, armies, lightning, thunder, tempest; who can stand but I?"
37668Must thou have more telling?"
37668On the stair he met his brother, just returned from boar- hunting, who said, in mocking wise:"Ah, is the Miserable about to get us a bastard?"
37668Poor little man, my good comrade, dost know what there is in store for thee?
37668Seeing her come in and fall on her knees before him, he said:"What wilt thou, little one?"
37668Shall I not be so always?
37668Sir Roel said that he knew nothing of it; and speaking to the Silent:"Son,"said he,"dost thou know where thy sister has gone?"
37668Sorely troubled, and falling on his knees, Halewyn said:"Alas, is the spell then impotent?
37668Suddenly he said, lifting his head arrogantly:"Am I not truly the Invincible, the Beautiful, the Strong?
37668Suddenly shaking himself:"This devil,"said he,"was he not making fun of me after all?
37668Suddenly the Miserable heard a sad voice saying:"Wilt thou seek strength and beauty in death, blood, and tears?"
37668Suddenly the voice spoke with anger:"Smith, wilt thou pay us in such ape''s coin?
37668The lady Gonde, going to him, said:"My son, why do you not come into the hall to bid good evening to the lord your father?"
37668Then Smetse feigned great anger and said to his workmen:"Do ye not hear?
37668This made the good woman more than ever put out, and she grew angry:"I tell you,"she exclaimed,"you have made a mistake; do you not hear me?
37668Toon, do you not know?"
37668Was it not a merry one?
37668Wast thou verily as sick as I?"
37668We never see thee now at vespers in the inn of Pensaert; why, Smetse?
37668Well, My Lord the Invincible, dost think thou shalt win invincibly the five- and- twenty bezants, the helm of my head, and the trappings of my horse?"
37668What did the fair maid put on her white body?
37668What had the fair maid on her beautiful shoulders?
37668What had the fair maid on her proud head?
37668What held she in her little hand?
37668What is he doing here?
37668What is it makes the flame glow in her clear brown eyes?
37668What is it so swells her breast?
37668What is the reason for it?
37668What of thy triumphant bearing, my lord the Invincible?
37668What would you have me do now, Lord Prince of the Stones?
37668When the lady Gonde turned her head, Magtelt fell on her knees before her:"Mother,"said she,"may I go to Halewyn?"
37668Where are barrels, kegs, flagons and bottles, tankards, mugs, and goblets?
37668Where are cauldrons, pots, and frying- pans?
37668Where are hams and sausages, whales''tongues, and loins of beef, meat of the air, meat of the waters, and meat of the fields?
37668Where goest thou, Smetse?"
37668Where got you this one?
37668Where is clauwaert simple and double?
37668Where is old wine and new wine?
37668Where?
37668Wherewith did the fair maid bind in her slender waist?
37668Which is she?"
37668While they were on their way:"Well, comrade,"said Gans to Blaeskaek,"what is thy opinion of this apothecary?"
37668Who is my equal?
37668Who will dare to live peaceably in this house from now on?
37668Who will pay you nothing: do you hear me?
37668Whose is that feeble arm down there, tapping with his hammer so gently?
37668Why does she carry so straight her head and her crown?
37668Why dost thou not now caper as a kid, or fly away as a bird, Siewert the enchanted?"
37668Why hold so long and fair parley with this fellow?
37668Will you be pleased to come into my kitchen, and try a slice of fat ham, taste a pot of good bruinbier, and sip a bottle of wine?
37668Will you be pleased to try them?
37668Will you please to love us also a little, for you alone are our comfort and joy in this sad world, Jesus?
37668Will your highness deign to be seated?"
37668Wilt kiss me, though I be old?"
37668Wilt not do likewise?
37668Wilt thou fight with me?"
37668Wilt thou have masses said?
37668Would it not be a criminal act to break off in this sudden fashion so close a partnership?
37668cried Pieter Gans,"what is this, dear Jesus?
37668cried Smetse, much frightened at these words,"do you think to eat me down there?
37668cried he, in his great joyous voice,"where are cooks and kitchen- maids?
37668said Smetse,"''tis the only thing I have; would you not, My Lord Devil, make me rich at a less price?"
37668said the devil,"it makes my mouth water; why dost not throw me down some of these marvellous plums?"
37668the blockheads, can ye''not see that the noble duke is standing?"
37668what are drums, cymbals, fifes, viols, and bagpipes worth?
37668what is this now?
