38128 | Count Rantzow enquired whether I wished to appeal against it? |
38128 | Count Rantzow said to the General and the Chancellor,''I think it is a fortnight ago since the sentence was published?'' |
38128 | Count Rantzow said,''You know, I suppose, who came to him oftenest?'' |
38128 | Count Rantzow said:''Supposing the pieces were still forthcoming?'' |
38128 | Creeping along the wall to the door, he said,''I should like to know two things: one is, who will be prison governor after me? |
38128 | Did you visit my sister in Paris the last time you were there?'' |
38128 | Do not fear: Thou must not hold all too dear; Thou art free-- a captive solely; Can no tower Have the power Thee to fetter wholly? |
38128 | Do you hear that, good people?'' |
38128 | Do you imagine that I will not have something from him for the support of my child?'' |
38128 | Do you lose anything by it? |
38128 | Do you not understand that he is afraid I shall let the things be seen? |
38128 | Do you venture to swear a falsehood by the Sacrament, and to say it in my presence, when I know that it is the prison governor''s thread? |
38128 | Does he not say that we shall get into trouble if he gets the scissors and knife back again? |
38128 | Does he want to make a priest of himself? |
38128 | Does it not ring every day?'' |
38128 | Fifthly, Who visited my husband in Bruges? |
38128 | For how would it have been possible for me to resist such great, sudden, and unexpected misfortunes, had not His spirit imparted to me strength? |
38128 | For who should have locked the tower- door again after the imprisoned thief, had not one of these done so? |
38128 | For whom should I spin?'' |
38128 | Fourthly, Who had been in England with me? |
38128 | Hath God forgotten to be gracious? |
38128 | Hath He in anger shut up his tender mercies?'' |
38128 | He answered ironically,''What is that to you? |
38128 | He asked again with the same words, adding''Do you not hear?'' |
38128 | He asked further, Whether I had more jewels with me than those he had seen? |
38128 | He asked her whether she had acted rightly? |
38128 | He asked her whether she was with child? |
38128 | He asked,''Why another?'' |
38128 | He could not go up a few steps of the stairs without resting to get his breath; how should he, then, undertake a work of such labour? |
38128 | He is weak; what if she were now to run out and take the knife which is lying on the table outside, and were to stab him? |
38128 | He laughed, and said,"Who will cut them out?" |
38128 | He picked up the knife, saying,''You are probably not hungry? |
38128 | He said to the woman,''My Karen, will you dance? |
38128 | He said,''Well, shall we part now?'' |
38128 | He said,''You have plenty of hope; you think perhaps if the King died, you would be free?'' |
38128 | He took off his hat and made me a bow, and said,''Your ladyship desires nothing else?'' |
38128 | His friends asked,''As a prey to birds and wild beasts?'' |
38128 | How can you speak so?'' |
38128 | How can you talk so?'' |
38128 | How could the servant, then, say that I had done it? |
38128 | How should others know?'' |
38128 | I accosted her and said,''How is it? |
38128 | I answered him with a question,''Can widows tell the state of all affairs?'' |
38128 | I answered,''Perhaps you know of one?'' |
38128 | I asked her why she grudged my sleeping? |
38128 | I asked her why? |
38128 | I asked her, at last, in what the Lord''s Supper consisted? |
38128 | I asked him what had become of Solomon''s temple? |
38128 | I asked him whether I had ever desired to know anything from him? |
38128 | I asked him, en passant, what was the matter? |
38128 | I asked if still worse misfortunes were in store for me for which I was to live? |
38128 | I asked,''How was that?'' |
38128 | I asked,''Whom does your worship mean, then?'' |
38128 | I asked:''Why for the last time?'' |
38128 | I bought two pounds of it, and he retained a pound, saying,''I suppose the woman can make me a pair of stockings with it?'' |
38128 | I can strangle the strongest fellow with my bare hands, if I can seize him unawares, and what more could happen to me than is happening? |
38128 | I consoled myself with God and a good conscience; I was conscious of nothing wrong, and I asked who she was, and whom she served? |
38128 | I enumerated everything that I had innocently suffered and endured during my life, and I enquired of God whether I had deviated from my duty? |
38128 | I have never murdered anyone( I thought, we know not what);[100] why should I die? |
38128 | I have spent much money on my son to have him taught to read, and see, is he not dead?'' |
38128 | I imagine that the clergyman[99] was well informed by Chresten of all that concerned her, as he put to her so many questions: where she was born? |
38128 | I inquired''For what reason?'' |
38128 | I ought to beg pardon too? |
38128 | I replied with a question:''What may it arise from that the Major- General endeavours to cheer me? |
38128 | I replied,''Can you help her in it?'' |
38128 | I replied,''How am I to appeal against a judicial decree? |
38128 | I replied:''It would be no good for her to sit with me in prison; it would only destroy her own happiness; for who knows how long I may live?'' |
38128 | I reproved her and said:''If he now knew that you were cursing him in this way, do you not think he would bring it about that you must do penitence? |
38128 | I said afterwards:''What does it matter to you that the prison governor asks me for my friendship? |
38128 | I said''Will you keep what you have promised me?'' |
38128 | I said,''Maren Block has obtained the royal licence for you by lies, and has brought you to me by lies; what, then, can I expect from your service?'' |
38128 | I said,''No one may be his own judge, either by the law of God or man; and what does the fifth commandment teach us? |
38128 | I said,''What am I to say? |
38128 | I said:''What is the matter with you? |
38128 | I was still lying down, and I asked her if I should be her maid, and should do it for her? |
38128 | II Why then shouldst thou thus fret thee, Anxiously, Ever sighing, mournfully? |
38128 | IV Is the body captive here? |
38128 | Is his mercy clean gone for ever? |
38128 | Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands?'' |
38128 | Is it not so?'' |
38128 | Is not that a pity, my dear lady?'' |
38128 | Is there any, small or grand, Who can payment duly hand At the creditor''s demand? |
38128 | Martin?'' |
38128 | Might I not see the documents?'' |
38128 | Now I will only ask if from to- day I strive The evil to avoid and henceforth good to live, Will this not bring success? |
38128 | Now, is not that enough?'' |
38128 | One day he said to the woman,''What do you think the prison governor would say if he knew that you give the prisoners some of his food to eat?'' |
38128 | Our lady asked him of what she was accused; he replied,''Will you ask that? |
38128 | She adhered to it, and said,''Who else could have taken it? |
38128 | She asked,''Do I do anything to you?'' |
38128 | She assumed an air of authority, and said,''Is the thread of any consequence? |
38128 | She replied with a question:''Why did she tell her a thing as a secret, which she herself did not believe to be a secret to her? |
38128 | She replied,''To whom had I need to say that the King is my brother? |
38128 | She rubbed her eyes again, and( as she is rather hasty with her words) she pointed quickly to an O, and said,''Is not that an O?'' |
38128 | She said further,''Then you have had a bad dream?'' |
38128 | She said still further:"What does he imagine? |
38128 | She said,''Did you not know why? |
38128 | She swore with a solemn oath, asking how it was to be got here? |
38128 | She threw the book on her bed, sat down to her work, and said,''What do I need to learn to read in a book? |
38128 | Sixthly the Chancellor asked, With whom I had corresponded here in the country? |
38128 | So I now answered him thus:''Well, and what does that signify? |
38128 | Some days after, she asked him if he had made up his mind? |
38128 | The Queen Dowager enquired''Why?'' |
38128 | The keys of the prisons lay by his side, and the principal key close by( did he not take good care of his prisoners?). |
38128 | The other is, who is to to have my Tyrelyre?'' |
38128 | The prison governor came up, took the knitting in his hand, and said to Inger,''Is this another pair of stockings for me?'' |
38128 | The prison governor said to me,''Eat, Leonora; will you not eat?'' |
38128 | The woman said,''There is certainly a prisoner there; who can it be?'' |
38128 | Then she said,"Why should I give it to him? |
38128 | Then the prison governor came in with his hat on, and said,''Leonora, why have you concealed your things?'' |
38128 | Then, What my husband was doing there? |
38128 | There he sat like a fool, saying to himself:''Should I go to the door? |
38128 | Thirdly, What I had purposed doing in England? |
38128 | This softened her a little, and she said,''How should he know it, unless you tell him?'' |
38128 | Upon this the Landgravine said,''You do not know her?'' |
38128 | What good does it do me? |
38128 | What have I for all my money? |
38128 | What is all our labour here, The servitude and yoke we bear? |
38128 | What is this our mortal life Otherwise than daily strife? |
38128 | When he had received the sacrament, he said,''Now your Majesties have had your desire; but what is the good of it?'' |
38128 | When he said to her,''Woman, what do you want?'' |
38128 | When it was nearly three o''clock, the woman said,''My stomach is quite shrunk up; when shall we have dinner?'' |
38128 | When the woman told him this, he thought a little, and then asked,''Does she say so?'' |
38128 | When this was nearly done, the woman said one day,''What will you do now when this is finished?'' |
38128 | Whether I ought to have done less for my husband than I had done? |
38128 | Whether I was to be now tortured, tormented, and scorned for this? |
38128 | Whether the present was my recompense for not having left him in his adversity? |
38128 | Whether there was any affliction on earth to be compared to mine? |
38128 | While I had often said with David,''Will the Lord cast off for ever? |
38128 | Why does not Peder so arrange it that it is forbidden? |
38128 | Why should a purpose fail, Altho''on this day made? |
38128 | Why, then, dost thou boldly fight The phantoms vain that mock thy sight? |
38128 | Why, then, is thy anxious breast Filled with trouble? |
38128 | Will you lick him in return, and that with a switch on his back?'' |
38128 | With what authority do you speak thus?'' |
38128 | Yet why should I thus sport with Memory''s truth, And harrow up the fairer soil of youth? |
38128 | You know well what God''s Word says of those who receive Christ''s body and blood unworthily and have trodden under foot his body?'' |
38128 | [ 72] Did not this accord well with the statement that my lord had offered the kingdom of Denmark to two potentates? |
38128 | _ August 1_?--Account( proposed to be sent to the Gazette?) |
38128 | a nod, which she did not at once understand; so the Mistress of the Robes said:''Do you not remember your orders?'' |
38128 | and more of the same kind, and finally, whether she had her certificate of confession, and how long it was since she had received the Lord''s Supper? |
38128 | and will he be favourable no more? |
38128 | answered Anna;''would the King do as he is doing without knowing for certain that it is true? |
38128 | are you in your senses? |
38128 | dear lady, what ails you? |
38128 | do you abuse me as a Pharisee?'' |
38128 | doth his promise fail for evermore? |
38128 | have you drank all the wine?'' |
38128 | how could you say such words? |
38128 | said she angrily,''will you suffer that? |
38128 | she answered,''shall I spin? |
38128 | that is not the way to get out of Borringholm; do you know that you have said the King is your brother? |
38128 | the Queen did not catch sight of it, but the King saw it directly and said,"So you are now bringing me petitions from Leonora?" |
38128 | what ailed her? |
38128 | whether I had slept? |
38128 | whether Maren had watched well? |
38128 | whether it consisted in candlesticks and candles? |
38128 | whether she could withhold from him what he requested? |
38128 | who is so ignorant in Denmark as not to know that? |
38128 | who was Trolle? |
38128 | whom she had served? |
38128 | why should it not prevail? |
38128 | you have had a breakfast to- day which has satisfied you, have you not? |
38128 | you wish perhaps to have something to communicate to the prison governor?'' |
