45165	What, the real, salt sea-- the ocean-- with the ships upon it?
45165	What, then,said he, ruminating deeply,"is a noun?
45165	Where are you from?
45165	Who is that gentleman?
45165	Why did n''t you ask that afore? 45165 Yes, but the meeting- house?"
45165	Yes, but where is the centre of the place?
45165	Yes; but did he prove it?
45165	You regard the creature as a huge shell- fish, then?
45165	Again, a third time, she said,"What''s that?"
45165	And children know His A B C, As bees where flowers are set; Wouldst thou a skilful teacher be?
45165	And is God here in the field, all around me-- in every blade of grass, in every leaf, and stem, and flower?
45165	And the rest-- where are they?
45165	And what are we That hear the question of that voice sublime?
45165	And what is that life?
45165	And why so?''
45165	And yet, bold babbler, what art thou to Him Who drown''d a world, and heap''d the waters far Above its loftiest mountains?
45165	Are you not ashamed to say such things?
45165	As he left the throng he came near me, and I said, inquiringly,"Down with Louis Philippe?"
45165	At a dollar a time, that makes twenty- five dollars-- don''t it?"
45165	Brought up under such influences, how could I give up my heart to trade?
45165	But can it be compared-- I appeal to all unprejudiced infants-- with that first chapter of our Second Expedition?
45165	Can it be?
45165	Canning''s wit got the better of his reverence, and so he profanely suggested that, if his majesty was a Dog of Dogs, what must the queen be?
45165	Cur-- r- r- r- r- r?
45165	Did not children love truth?
45165	Did you ever see it, stranger?"
45165	Do n''t you like that, mother?
45165	Do n''t you think it pretty good?
45165	Do you not love to read these rhymes, even though they are silly?
45165	Do you remember that picture which served as the frontispiece of the_ Tales of the Stars_?
45165	Do you talk to me of dramatic effect, Aristarchus, in those tomes you are always maudling over?
45165	Dr. B----, sir?
45165	For myself, I felt rather serious, and asked a certain anxious feeling in my stomach,--"What''s to be done?"
45165	From leaf, from page to page, Guide thou thy pupil''s look; And when he says, with aspect sage,"Who made this wondrous book?"
45165	Has it life?
45165	How''ll you take it, Mr. Kellogg?
45165	I asked if Mr. H---- was in?
45165	I replied:"Why do n''t you tell me what it is?
45165	If so, was it necessary to feed them on fiction?
45165	If the child knew his letters, the"what''s that?"
45165	If you turn a thing that''s got water in it bottom up, the water''ll run out, wo n''t it?"
45165	In cash, or in my way-- say in''taters, pork, and other things?"
45165	Is it not Jenkins that I see in Asia, defending himself stoutly, in the midst of an arid plain, against a mounted Arab?
45165	Is not that a grand_ denouement_?
45165	Is there not a gulf as wide as eternity, between the human soul and animal instinct?
45165	It can not think; it can not walk; who makes it grow then?
45165	It was something different from the frank, familiar,"How are you, stranger?"
45165	It was the precise point at which Sydney Smith had uttered that bitter taunt in the Edinburgh Review--"Who reads an American book?"
45165	Kellogg?"
45165	Listen to what I say?
45165	Ought I to be ashamed to say any thing that I find in a pretty book you have given me?
45165	Placing herself directly in front of the speaker, she exclaimed,"Ward, what do you mean?"
45165	Pray who made it?"
45165	Shall I not be accused of penning truisms?
45165	The particular scene of the act which the delightful artist( what was_ his_ name?
45165	These are high titles; but what were they to the author of Waverley?
45165	Three men in a tub-- And how do you think they got there?
45165	Was ever a mortal in so dire an extremity?
45165	Was it not curious to see the most renowned personage in the three kingdoms sitting at the very feet of these men: they the court, and he the clerk?
45165	What can be the matter?
45165	What is the matter with you?''
45165	What makes it grow?
45165	What shall I du?"
45165	What will Deacon Benedict say?
45165	What will come next?
45165	What''s the matter with my eyes?
45165	Which of Peter Parley''s numerous writings did you give the preference to, my reader?
45165	Who is that sailor I see crouching on that bank?
45165	Who made this blade of grass?
45165	Who told you how to make poetry?
45165	Who, then, will be our helper?
45165	Why should I be?
45165	Why, then, do you give me such things to read?
45165	Would you like to know him?"
45165	Yea, what is all the riot man can make, In his short life, to thy unceasing roar?
45165	You say, Parson Goodrich, that the sun is fixed, and do n''t move?"
45165	_ Grows!_ What does that mean?
45165	_ M._[_ Aside._] Dear, dear, what shall I do?
45165	_ Mother._ Your poetry, my son?
45165	_ T._ Absurd?
45165	_ T._ And"Doodledy, doodledy, dan"--mayn''t I say that?
45165	_ T._ Ashamed?
45165	_ T._ But, mother, what''s the use of understanding you?
45165	_ T._ Dear me, what shall I do?
45165	_ T._ Do you call them sensible things?
45165	_ T._ Ma''am?
45165	_ T._ Nor"Hey, diddle, diddle?"
45165	_ T._ Such as what?
45165	_ T.__ Sense?_ Who ever thought of_ sense_, in poetry?
45165	_ T.__ Sense?_ Who ever thought of_ sense_, in poetry?
45165	very soon ran on thus:--"What''s that?"
45165	what are all the notes that ever rung From war''s vain trumpet by thy thundering side?
45165	which are his pictures in the National Gallery?)
45165	who goes there?"
13660	Dost know me, friend? 13660 Has not Mr. Carey paid you?"
13660	Old Fogeyand"Amiable Kuss"?
13660	Then has he not paid Carlyle directly?
13660	* A small hatchet- faced, gray- eyed, good- humored Inspector, who came with a Translated Lafontaine; and took his survey not without satisfaction?
13660	** Cromwell-- Cromwell?
13660	--------- And how many were"printed,"thinks Mr. Phillips?
13660	--------- Did you receive a Dumfries Newspaper with a criticism in it?
13660	---------- And poor Miss Fuller, was there any_ Life_ ever published of her?
13660	All people are in a sort of joy- dom over the new French Republic, which has descended suddenly( or shall we say,_ ascended_ alas?)
13660	And if so, I should say, Why not come at once, even as the Editor surmises?
13660	And who knows but I may come one day?
13660	And you ought to come and look at it, beyond doubt; and say to this land,"Old Mother, how are you getting on at all?"
13660	Are English of this day incapable of a great sentiment?
13660	Are you a physician, and will you come?
13660	Are you bound by your Arabian bounty to a largess whenever you think of your friend?
13660	But I hope you are to be at home tomorrow, for if I prosper, I shall come and beg a dinner with you,--is it not at five o''clock?
13660	But he is a good man, and, do you know it?
13660	But since you are all bounty and care for me, where are the new volumes of the Library Edition of Carlyle?
13660	But there is no more time in this late night-- and what need?
13660	But what can I?
13660	But what can be said?
13660	But what do I read in our Boston Newspapers twice in the last three days?
13660	But what had I, dear wise man, to tell you?
13660	By some refraction which new lenses or else steamships shall operate, shall I not yet one day see again the disk of benign Phosphorus?
13660	By the bye, do you know a"Massachusetts Historical Society,"and a James Bowdoin, seemingly of Boston?
13660	Can I ever forget, or think otherwise than lovingly of the man Emerson?
13660	Can you remember and tell me?
13660	Carlyle to Emerson Chelsea, 8 July, 1851 Dear Emerson,--Don''t you still remember very well that there is such a man?
13660	Clark( is not that the name?)
13660	Did you find kings and priests?
13660	Did you mean to show us that you could not be old, but immortally young?
13660	Do not I very well understand all that you say about"apathized moods,"& c.?
13660	Do you bethink you of Craigenputtock, and the still evening there?
13660	Do you know Beriah Green?
13660	Do you know Browning at all?
13660	Emerson to Carlyle* Concord, May[?
13660	Enough, enough; there will be all Eternity to rest in, as Arnauld said:"Why in such a fuss, little sir?"
13660	Ever yours, T. Carlyle We returned from Hampshire exactly a week ago; never passed six so totally idle weeks in our lives.--Better in health a little?
13660	For example, you must tell Mr. Thoreau( is that the exact name?
13660	For the years that remain, I suppose we must continue to grumble out some occasional utterance of that kind: what can we do, at this late stage?
13660	From Mr. Everett I learn that your Boston Lectures have been attended with renown enough: when are the Lectures themselves to get to print?
13660	Had I kept silence so very long?
13660	Hammond l''Estrange says,"Who ever heard of a stammering man that was a fool?"
13660	Has your head grown grayish?
13660	Have I not a Friend, and Friends, though they too are in sorrow?
13660	Have you a physician that can?
13660	Have you got proper_ spectacles_ for your eyes?
13660	He is abstruse, but worth knowing.--And what of the_ Discourse on England_ by a certain man?
13660	He was even a little stern on his nearest relatives when they came to him: Do I need your help to die?
13660	How can you explain men to Apes by the Dead Sea?
13660	How shall Queen Victoria read this?
13660	I fear you wo n''t see Brigham Young, however?
13660	I know not what your engagements are; but I say to myself, Why not come at once, and rest a little from your sea- changes, before going farther?
13660	I shall think there, a fortnight might bring you from London to Walden Pond.--Life wears on, and do you say the gray hairs appear?
13660	In fact I felt punished;--and who knows, if the case were seen into, whether I deserve it?
13660	In short, I am willing, I am willing; and so let us not waste another drop of ink on it at present!--On the whole, are not you a strange fellow?
13660	Is Frederic recreated?
13660	Is Frederic the Great?
13660	Is it likely we shall meet in"Oregon,"think you?
13660	Is not Henry James in London?
13660	Is not this the most illustrious of all"ages"; making progress of the species at a grand rate indeed?
13660	It is said: here, that you work upon Frederick the Great??
13660	It is said: here, that you work upon Frederick the Great??
13660	Macaulay''s_ History_ is also out, running through the fourth edition: did I tell you last time that I had read it,--with wonder and amazement?
13660	Meanwhile, patience; for us there is nothing else appointed.--Tell me, however, what has become of your Book on England?
13660	Never dream of such a thing nay, whom_ did_ you send?
13660	Now please to read these things to the wise and kind ears of Jane Carlyle, and ask her if I have done wrong in giving my friend a letter to her?
13660	Or is the case already irremediable?
13660	Or possibly I do the poor man wrong by misremembrance?
13660	Regrets for old days.--Not left town.--A new top story.--Miss Bacon, her Quixotic enterprise.--Clough.--Thackeray.--To Concord?
13660	Shall I believe you, this time?
13660	Tell me what is become of_ Frederic,_ for whose appearance I have watched every week for months?
13660	The common impious vulgar of this earth, what has it to do with my life or me?
13660	The man looks brilliant and noble to me; but how_ love_ him, or the sad wreck he lived and worked in?
13660	This is the fact: what more can I say?
13660	This war has been conducted over the heads of all the actors in it; and the foolish terrors,"What shall we do with the negro?"
13660	To which the Mother will answer,"Thankee, young son, and you?"
13660	Very well: could I help it?
13660	Was I not once promised a visit?
13660	Watchman, what sayest thou, then?
13660	What are you doing?
13660	What can I tell you better?
13660	What do I care for his fame?
13660	What have we to do with old age?
13660	What news of Naseby and Worcester?
13660	What to tell you of my coop and byre?
13660	What would I not give for a head of Shakespeare by the same artist?
13660	What, you scorn all this?
13660	When shall I show him to you?
13660	Where all writing is such a caricature of the subject, what signifies whether the form is a little more or less ornate and luxurious?
13660	Who can say what he yet is and will be to me?
13660	Who is he that can trust himself in the fray?
13660	Who knows but I may have adventures-- I who had never one, as I have just had occasion to write to Mrs. Howitt, who inquired what mine were?
13660	Why should I plague poor Clark with them, if it be any plague to him?
13660	Why should I regret that I see you not, when you are forced thus intimately to discover yourself beyond the intimacy of conversation?
13660	Will this do?
13660	Will you come in Winter then, next Winter,--or when?
13660	Will your next Letter tell us the_ when?_ O my Friend!
13660	You are sending me a book, and Chapman''s Homer it is?
13660	You promise us a new Book soon?
13660	You remember Charles Buller, to whom I brought you over that night at the Barings''in Stanhope Street?
13660	You say not a word of your own affairs: I have vaguely been taught to look for some Book shortly;--what of it?
13660	_ Ach Gott!_ Is not Anarchy, and parliamentary eloquence instead of work, continued for half a century everywhere, a beautiful piece of business?
13660	_ Altum Silentium,_ what else can I reply to it at present?
13660	and having kept us all murmuring at your satires and sharp homilies, will now melt us with this manly and heart- warming embrace?
13660	and how the poor?
13660	how the Colleges?
13660	how the Lords?
13660	how the Primate and Bishops of England?
13660	how the rich?
13660	of Demosthenes?
13660	of Plato?
13660	or is any competent hand engaged on it?
13660	this with the announcement of the Title as given above?
13660	why he does not_ give_ us that little Book on England he has promised so long?
2647	And pray, Sir, what right have you to leave out two letters? 2647 Aye, but in the House of Lords?"
2647	Do n''t you know?
2647	Do you remember the making of it?
2647	How stands the case? 2647 Was there ever a more appropriate quotation?
2647	Well, Vernon, what are they doing?
2647	''In spirits, Ma''am?
2647	''What did you say to him?''
2647	( Do you know that delicious sensation?)
2647	( in passing I may be allowed to ask what that means?)
2647	After I had lounged a short time in the dining- room, I heard a gruff good- natured voice asking,"Where is Mr. Macaulay?
2647	And do you not remember how, on behalf of your sex, you resented the imputation?
2647	And have they forgotten all the transactions of the succeeding year?
2647	And how is that?
2647	And how was this change effected?
2647	And, as St. John was writing Greek, and to Greeks, is it not likely that he would use the Greek rather than the Arabic notation?"
2647	And, if you do not read novels, what do you read?
2647	Are they foolish, and wicked, and wayward in the use of their faculties?
2647	Are they ungrateful to you for your kindnesses?
2647	At midnight I walked away with George Lamb, and went-- where for a ducat?
2647	Away I went from Brooks''s-- but whither?
2647	But before we had got five feet from where we were standing, who should meet us face to face but Old Basil Montagu?
2647	But do you not remember how I told you that much of the love of women depended on the eminence of men?
2647	But what are they all to the great Athenian?
2647	But what is the line of defence taken by its advocates?
2647	But what shall I feel?
2647	But why plague ourselves about politics when we have so much pleasanter things to talk of?
2647	But why should I go on preaching to you out of Ecclesiastes?
2647	By the bye, why do not you translate him?
2647	By what strange fascination is it that ambition and resentment exercise such power over minds which ought to be superior to them?
2647	By whom, I ask, has the Reform Bill been carried?
2647	Can I possibly look forward to anything happier?
2647	Can anything be so bad as the living bush which bleeds and talks, or the Harpies who befoul Aeneas''s dinner?
2647	Did I tell you that I dined at the Duchess of Kent''s, and sate next that loveliest of women, Mrs. Littleton?
2647	Did not Lady Holland tell me of some good novels?
2647	Did you begin from the beginning?
2647	Did you ever read Athenaeus through?
2647	Do n''t you think vase will do?
2647	Do they wait for that last and most dreadful paroxysm of popular rage, for that last and most cruel test of military fidelity?
2647	Do you know, by the bye, Clarendon''s life of himself?
2647	Do you mean to insult me?
2647	Do you read any novels at Liverpool?
2647	Do you remember it?
2647	Does it satisfy you?"
2647	Does not wealth confer power?
2647	Est- ce qu''il y''ait quelque chose qui vous ait diverti?
2647	First Footman.--Sir, may I venture to demand your name?
2647	For what is it that he submits, day after day, to see the morning break over the Thames, and then totters home, with bursting temples, to his bed?
2647	Gentlemen, is it your wish that those persons who are thought worthy of the public confidence should never possess the confidence of the King?
2647	Have I nothing to do but to be your novel- taster?
2647	Have they forgotten how the spirit of liberty in Ireland, debarred from its natural outlet, found a vent by forbidden passages?
2647	Have they obliterated from their minds-- gladly, perhaps, would some among them obliterate from their minds-- the transactions of that year?
2647	Have you ever read it?
2647	Have you seen what the author of the"Young Duke"says about me: how rabid I am, and how certain I am to rat?
2647	How are we to permit all the consequences of that wealth but one?
2647	How can his ambitious mind support it?
2647	How do all the rest of mankind live?
2647	How do you know that I am not writing a billet doux to a lady?
2647	How do you make it out?"
2647	How does Schiller go on?
2647	How does it proceed?
2647	However, if one of the Ministry says to me,"Why walk you here all the day idle?"
2647	I called a cabriolet, and the first thing the driver asked was,"Is the Bill carried?"
2647	I said:"M. de Saint- Aulaire est beau- pere de M. le duc de Cazes, n''est- ce pas?"
2647	I sit like a king, with my writing- desk before me; for,( would you believe it?)
2647	If it is fit to administer justice to the great body of the people, why should we exempt a mere handful of settlers from its jurisdiction?
2647	If not, for what would they have us wait?
2647	If the people of Shelford be as bad as you represent them in your letters, what are they but an epitome of the world at large?
2647	If we take pains to show that we distrust our highest courts, how can we expect that the natives of the country will place confidence in them?
2647	If, as I expect, this offer shall be made to me, will you go with me?
2647	In January 1825 he says in a letter to a friend in London:"Can you not lay your hands on some clever young man who would write for us?
2647	Indeed, what colouring is there which would not look tame when placed side by side with the magnificent light, and the terrible shade, of Thucydides?
2647	Is it for fame?
2647	Is it possible that gentlemen long versed in high political affairs can not read these signs?
2647	Is it possible that they can really believe that the Representative system of England, such as it now is, will last to the year 1860?
2647	Is it your wish that no men should be Ministers but those whom no populous places will take as their representatives?
2647	Is not this an exquisite specimen of legislative wisdom?
2647	Is the"Young Duke"worth reading?
2647	Johnson''s Hebrides, or Walton''s Lives, unless you would like a neat edition of Cowper''s poems or Paradise Lost for your own eating?
2647	My Darling,--Why am I such a fool as to write to a gypsey at Liverpool, who fancies that none is so good as she if she sends one letter for my three?
2647	My dear N.,--What mortal could ever dream of cutting out the least particle of this precious work, to make it fit better into your Review?
2647	My dear Sister,--Do you want to hear all the compliments that are paid to me?
2647	Or, rather, how many dozen have you finished?
2647	Pourquoi riez- vous?
2647	Pray, sir, what is it called?"
2647	Quando ullum invenient parem?
2647	Second Footman.--And art thou come to breakfast with our Lord?
2647	Shall I buy"Dunallan"for you?
2647	Shall I tell you the news in rhyme?
2647	Sir J. G. Whom are you writing to, that you laugh so much over your letter?
2647	The King immediately addressed him in French:''Eh, mais, Monsieur l''Envoye d''Angleterre, qu''avez- vous done?
2647	The Parson''s Daughter; do n''t you like the Parson''s Daughter?
2647	The first touch which came home to him was Jingle''s"Handsome Englishman?"
2647	There I found an Englishman who, without any preface, accosted me thus:"Pray, Mr. Macaulay, do not you think that Buonaparte was the Beast?"
2647	To whom but the Good Old King?
2647	To whom, for a ducat?
2647	Very kind of the old man, is it not?
2647	Was he a special messenger from London?
2647	Was he on the circuit?
2647	Was it for good or evil?
2647	What are those pretty lines of Shelley?
2647	What can I say more?
2647	What can be imagined more absurd than his keeping up an angry correspondence with Jeffrey about articles he has never read?
2647	What can he have to say to me?
2647	What do you think he says that I am?
2647	What do you think of my taste?
2647	What do you think of the old fellow?
2647	What else have you to do?
2647	What have I to tell you?
2647	What have people like him to do, except to eulogise people like me?"
2647	What is all this but what we ourselves are guilty of every day?
2647	What is this fascination which makes us cling to existence in spite of present sufferings and of religious hopes?
2647	What is to become of the slaves?
2647	What is to become of the tea- trade?
2647	What novel have you commenced?
2647	What on earth have I to do with P--?
2647	What say you to a little good prose?
2647	What say you to"Destiny"?
2647	What though now opposed I be?
2647	What?
2647	When shall you be in London?
2647	Where have you put him?"
2647	Who calls Macaulay?
2647	Who ever composed with greater spirit and elegance because he could define an oxymoron or an aposiopesis?
2647	Who ever reasoned better for having been taught the difference between a syllogism and an enthymeme?
2647	Who hath not dreamed that even the skylark''s throat Hails that sweet morning with a gentler note?
2647	Who have raised Leeds into the situation to return members to Parliament?
2647	Who shall say?
2647	Who would compare the fame of Charles Townshend to that of Hume, that of Lord North to that of Gibbon, that of Lord Chatham to that of Johnson?
2647	Whom do you think?
2647	Whom have I on earth but thee?
2647	Why begin to build without counting the cost of finishing?
2647	Why can not P-- be apprenticed to some hatter or tailor?
2647	Why did not Price speak?
2647	Why did they not think of all this earlier?
2647	Why do you not send me longer letters?
2647	Why not keep a journal, and minute down in it all that you see and hear?
2647	Why put their hand to the plough, and look back?
2647	Why raise the public appetite, and then baulk it?
2647	Why was it that, when neighbouring capitals were perishing in the flames, our own was illuminated only for triumphs?
2647	Why, Sir, if he was not the Beast, who was?"
2647	Will our merchants consent to have the trade with China, which has just been offered to them, snatched away?
2647	Will the negroes, after receiving the Resolutions of the House of Commons promising them liberty, submit to the cart- whip?
2647	Would they have us wait till the whole tragicomedy of 1827 has been acted over again?
2647	Would they have us wait, merely that we may show to all the world how little we have profited by our own recent experience?
2647	Would they have us wait, that we may once again hit the exact point where we can neither refuse with authority, nor concede with grace?
2647	Would you think it?
2647	Yesterday, as he was sitting in the Athenaeum, a gentleman called out:''Waiter, is there a copy of the Pilgrim''s Progress in the library?''
2647	and what do you think of"Laurie Todd"?
2647	for Canterbury; and Rich, the author of"What will the Lords do?"
2647	said young Hopeful,"are you going yet?"
13583	Mes enfans,said a French gentleman to the cherubs in the Picture,"Mes enfans, asseyez- vous?"
13583	What care I for the house? 13583 Why?
13583	( Did you get those two Newspapers?)
13583	* How do you like it?
13583	* Shall I say then,"In the mouth of two witnesses"?
13583	----------_"Forgotten you?
13583	--R. Waldo Emerson May I trouble you with a commission when you are in the City?
13583	A cassock?
13583	A sore calamity has fallen on us, or rather has fallen on my poor Wife( for what am I but like a spectator in comparison?
13583	A_ disjectum membrum;_ cut off from relations with men?
13583	After all, why should not Letters be on business too?
13583	All the world cries out, Why_ do you_ publish with Fraser?
13583	Always excepting my wonderful Professor, who among the living has thrown any memorable truths into circulation?
13583	And can not you renew and confirm your suggestion touching your appearance in this continent?
13583	And must not we say that Drunkenness is a virtue rather than that Cato has erred?
13583	And now the Heterodox, the Heterodox, where is that?
13583	And now why do not_ you_ write to me?
13583	And now will you not tell me what you read and write?
13583	And see Miss Martineau in the last_ Westminster Review:_--these things you are old enough to stand?
13583	And then, How?
13583	And what more can a man ask of his writing fellow- man?
13583	And yet did ever wise and philanthropic author use so defying a diction?
13583	And yet, as you will say, why not even of dollars?
13583	Are all these things interesting to you?
13583	As you know my whereabout, will you throw a little light on your own?
13583	But after all, will it suit America to print an_ unequal_ number of your two pairs of volumes?
13583	But has literature any parallel to the oddity of the vehicle chosen to convey this treasure?
13583	But now first as to this question, What I mean?
13583	But on the whole are we not the_ formalest_ people ever created under this Sun?
13583	But the way to find that word?
13583	But then where?
13583	But what avail any commendations of the form, until I know that the man is alive and well?
13583	But what makes the priest?
13583	By the by, have you not learned to read German now?
13583	By the bye, will you tell me some time or other in_ what_ American funds it is that your funded money, you once gave me note of, now lies?
13583	Can they not see the necessity of your coming to look after your American interests?
13583	Can you have the generosity to write,_ without_ an answer?
13583	Can you not have some_ Sartors_ sent?
13583	Can you tell me?
13583	Carlyle to Emerson Chelsea, London, 13 April, 1839 My Dear Emerson,--Has anything gone wrong with you?
13583	Could you send me two copies of the American_ Life of Schiller,_ if the thing is fit for making a present of, and easy to be got?
13583	Could you send us out a part of your edition at American prices, and at the same time to your advantage?
13583	Couldst not wait a little?
13583	Did I tell you that we hope shortly to send you some American verses and prose of good intent?
13583	Did he ever write to you?
13583	Did the Upholsterer make this Universe?
13583	Did you ever see such a vacant turnip- lantern as that Walsingham Goethe?
13583	Did you not tell me, Mr. Thomas Carlyle, sitting upon one of your broad hills, that it was Jesus Christ built Dunscore Kirk yonder?
13583	Do not the two together make one work?
13583	Do you know English Puseyism?
13583	Do you know what I think of doing with it?
13583	Do you not believe that the fields and woods have their proper virtue, and that there are good and great things which will not be spoken in the city?
13583	Do you read German or not?
13583	Do you read Landor, or know him, O seeing man?
13583	Do you remember Fraser''s Magazine for October, 1832, and a Translation there, with Notes, of a thing called Goethe''s Mahrchen?
13583	Emerson What manner of person is Heraud?
13583	Far, far better seems to me the unpopularity of this Philosophical Poem( shall I call it?)
13583	Fear not that!--Do you attend at all to this new_ Laudism_ of ours?
13583	For the sake of America will she not try the trip to Leith again?
13583	For which last Evangel, the confirmation and rehabilitation of all other Evangels whatsoever, how can I be too grateful?
13583	Gustave d''Eichthal( did you hear?)
13583	Has the heterodoxy arrived in Chelsea, and quite destroyed us even in the charity of our friend?
13583	Has the_ Meister_ ever arrived?
13583	Have I involved you in double postage by this loquacity?
13583	Have you received a letter from me with a pamphlet sent in December?
13583	How can I speak of them on a miserable scrap of blue paper?
13583	How do I know what is good for_ you,_ what authentically makes your own heart glad to work in it?
13583	How is it that you do not write to me?
13583	How should he be so poor?
13583	I am getting on with some studies of mine prosperously for me, have got three essays nearly done, and who knows but in the autumn I shall have a book?
13583	I am weary of hearing it said,"We love the Americans,""We wish well,"& c.,& c. What in God''s name should we do else?
13583	I ask constantly of all men whether life may not be poetic as well as stupid?
13583	I declare, I am ashamed of my intolerance:--and yet you have ceased to be a Teacher of theirs, have you not?
13583	I have seen some other Lions, and Lion''s-_providers;_ but consider them a worthless species.--When will you write, then?
13583	I know not what he will make of it;-- perhaps wry faces at it?
13583	I rejoice rather in my laziness; proving that I_ can_ sit.--But, after all, ought I not to be thankful?
13583	I sometimes ask myself rather earnestly, What is the duty of a citizen?
13583	I will not love them.--And yet, what am I saying?
13583	If it be not His will,--then is it not better so?
13583	If you in America wanted more also--?
13583	In any case what signifies it much?
13583	In this number what say you to the_ Elegy_ written by a youth who grew up in this town and lives near me,--Henry Thoreau?
13583	Is he now a preacher?
13583	Is it Cromwell still?
13583	Is lecturing and noise the way to get at that?
13583	Is not all that very morbid,--unworthy the children of Odin, not to speak of Luther, Knox, and the other Brave?
13583	Is there, at bottom, in the world or out of it, anything one would like so well, with one''s whole heart_ well,_ as PEACE?
13583	It seems then this Mahomet was not a quack?
13583	John Sterling scolds and kisses it( as the manner of the man is), and concludes by inquiring, whether there is any procurable Likeness of Emerson?
13583	Little and James Brown, 112 Washington St.), or is not this the right way?
13583	May I not call it temporary?
13583	Meanwhile, however, is it not pitiable?
13583	Milnes did get your Letter: I told you?
13583	More than one inquires of me, Has that Emerson of yours written nothing else?
13583	My copy of the_ Oration_ has never come: how is this?
13583	Norton* surely is a chimera; but what has the whole business they are jarring about become?
13583	Now, what does your question point at in reference to your new edition, asking"if we want more"?
13583	Or are you perhaps writing a Book?
13583	Or do you ever mean to learn it?
13583	Or perhaps it is not a whit worse; only rougher, more substantial; on the whole better?
13583	Or the power( and thence the call) to teach man''s duties as they flow from the Superhuman?
13583	Or who knows but Mahomet may go to the mountain?
13583	Patience;--and yet who can be patient?
13583	People cry over it:"Whitherward?
13583	Perhaps in some late number of the_ Zeitgenossen_ there may be something?
13583	Probably, there is no chance before the middle of March or so?
13583	Read the article_ Simonides_ by him in the_ London and Westminster_--brilliant prose, translations-- wooden?
13583	Says not the sarcasm,"Truth hath the plague in his house"?
13583	Shall it be Switzerland, shall it be Scotland, nay, shall it be America and Concord?
13583	Shall we have anthracite coal or wood in your chamber?
13583	Suppose you and I promulgate a treatise next,"How to see"?
13583	Tell me of the author''s health and welfare; or, will not he love me so much as to write me a letter with his own hand?
13583	Tell me whether you dislike it less; what you do think of it?
13583	That he is a better Christian, with his"bastard Christianity,"than the most of us shovel- hatted?
13583	That is the right way, is it not?
13583	The Cat- Raphael?
13583	The Printer is slack and lazy as Printers are; and you do not wish to write till you can send some news of him?
13583	The cost of a copy in sheets or"folded"( if that means somewhat more?)
13583	The second volume was just closing; shall it live for a third year?
13583	The way to speak it when found?"
13583	The"Lectures on the Times"are even now in progress?
13583	Then again I think it is perhaps better so; who knows?
13583	These voices of yours which I likened to unembodied souls, and censure sometimes for having no body,--how can they have a body?
13583	They are delivering Orations about him, and emitting other kinds of froth,_ ut mos est._ What hurt can it do?
13583	They are even of benefit?
13583	They ask, What shall be done?
13583	To fly in the teeth of English Puseyism, and risk such shrill welcome as I am pretty sure of, is questionable: yet at bottom why not?
13583	To what use, surely?
13583	Varnhagen himself will not bring up your fourth volume to the right size; hardly beyond 380 pages, I should think; yet what more can be done?
13583	Very saucy, was it not?
13583	Were you created by the Tailor?
13583	What am I to do?
13583	What can we say in these cases?
13583	What could Homer, Socrates, or St. Paul say that can not be said here?
13583	What does he at Clifton?
13583	What has life better to offer than such tidings?
13583	What have you to do with Italy?
13583	What help, O James?
13583	What is to hinder huge London from being to universal Saxondom what small Mycale was to the Tribes of Greece,--a place to hold your[ Greek] in?
13583	What news, my dear friend, from your study?
13583	What she is to write I know not, except it be what she has said, holding up the pamphlet,"Is it not a noble thing?
13583	What would it avail to tell you anecdotes of a sweet and wonderful boy, such as we solace and sadden ourselves with at home every morning and evening?
13583	What, What?"
13583	When will you come and redeem your pledge?
13583	Wherefore, putting all things together, can not I feel that I have washed my hands of this business in a quite tolerable manner?
13583	Why may you not give the reins to your wit, your pathos, your philosophy, and become that good despot which the virtuous orator is?
13583	Why not you come over, since I can not?
13583	Why will not this_ Appendix_ do, these_ Appendixes,_ to hang to the skirts of Volume Four as well?
13583	Will it ever reach him?
13583	Will not that do?
13583	Will this_ Appendix_ do, then?
13583	Will you say to him that he sent me some books two or three years ago without any account of prices annexed?
13583	Yet I work better under this base necessity, and then I have a certain delight( base also?)
13583	Yet how is it that I do not hear?
13583	Yet it was to fulfil my duty, finish my mission, not with much hope of gratifying him,--in the spirit of"If I love you, what is that to you?"
13583	Yet perhaps it is the proper place after all, seeing all places are improper: who knows?
13583	You can not believe it?
13583	You of course read his sublime"article"?
13583	You, friend Emerson, are to be a Farmer, you say, and dig Earth for your living?
13583	_ Varnhagen_ may be printed I think without offence, since there is need of it: if that will make up your fourth volume to a due size, why not?
13583	and WHEREFORE?
13583	and_ Mirabeau_ and_ Macaulay?_ Stearns Wheeler is very faithful in his loving labor,--has taken a world of pains with the sweetest smile.
13583	canst thou not make a pulpit by simply_ inverting the nearest tub?_"yet, alas!
13583	he has to fly again.--Did you get his letter?
13583	in the whole circle of History is there the parallel of that,--a true worship rising at this hour of the day for Bands and the Shovel- hat?
13583	my horror of_ Lecturing_ continues great; and what else is there for me to do there?
13583	or What is your American rule?
13583	was it you that defalcated?
13583	what designs ripened or executed?
13583	what hopes?
13583	what thoughts?
