38128''But how can you?''
38128''But what then,''was his reply,''concern the attacks of the wild beasts me, when I do n''t feel them?''
38128''Do you mean,''I replied,''that if anyone is in favour at court, it is because their lips are full of lies?
38128''Do you think I could not do anything to anyone if I chose, just as well as then, if anyone behaved to me in a manner that I could not endure?
38128''Do you think so, my dear lady?''
38128''Does the Herr Mag, then,''I said,''mean that I desired D. Hans Læt in order to hear news of him?''
38128''Have you not?''
38128''How do you know that?''
38128''How so?''
38128''In God''s name,''I answered,''am I, therefore, at liberty to put on again my bracelets and rings?''
38128''In the licence,''I said,''you are spoken of as a married woman, and not as a spinster; have you, then, been seduced?''
38128''Is she thoroughly angry?''
38128''It is heavy,''she said,''even to me; what must it not be to you?
38128''Perhaps,''I said,''the cats were not both black?''
38128''Then I hope, dear heart,''said Maren,''that you will not kill yourself; then you shall have needles and thread; but what will you sew?''
38128''Under foot?''
38128''What do you mean?''
38128''What do you mean?''
38128''What more?''
38128''What reason have you for speaking thus?''
38128''What sin could there be,''she said,''when the child was always sickly, and the husband angry in consequence?''
38128''What sort of spirit is that?''
38128''What,''he answered,''was I to remain at their dirty work?''
38128''What?''
38128''Where, then?''
38128''Why did you do so?''
38128''Why does she throw herself, then, on her bare knees, and curse herself if she should think of returning to you?''
38128''Why so?''
38128''Why then do you think,''said she,''that she is so much in favour at court?''
38128''Why will you, then,''she went on to say,''let yourself be tormented for others, and not say what you know of them?''
38128''Why, then,''I asked,''have you given yourself out as sickly?''
38128''Why, then,''I said,''did you go by in your stockings?''
38128''Yes,''said he,''but how will it fare with me then?''
38128''Yes,''said he,''but with what pleasure?''
38128''Yes,''she said,''is it not all one how one dies?''
38128''You,''said she, in a somewhat haughty tone,''who are you?
38128''[ 71]''How do you know that?''
38128After having repeated this remark several times, she said to me,''Is it not true, my lady?''
38128Afterwards Dreyer spoke to her, and she asked him why she was treated thus?
38128And I said,''Do you think that such light words are not a sin, and that God will not punish you for them?''
38128And as he was growing angry, I became more composed and I asked gently why so, and from what could he infer it?
38128And what have I done, that things should go worse with me?''
38128Anna said angrily to her,''Catharina, do you know what you are saying?
38128Anna, who was very officious, asked me,''Does my lady wish for anything?

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