49637 | May not this allow one to suppose that the coast had suffered considerable changes since the year 1762? |
49637 | Vaugondy, is imputed to the Russian geographers, in fixing the longitude of Kamtchatka? |
40691 | How was I to reach the land? 40691 ` Are the rest all lost, think you?'' |
40691 | ` Now,''I asked,` what have you got to say to me?'' 40691 But what does the Government say to the matter? 40691 ` What chance have we of getting away from the wreck? 32613 Are there any of the green sonsofbitches on the mainland? |
32613 | But why such an innocuous little fly if they mean business? |
32613 | Come to the isles, boy, and live!--Cordially, Fred***** May 26, 1956 Dear Ben: Now, are n''t you sorry you did n''t take my advice?!!!! |
32613 | He said,"Well, Fred, are you convinced now that we''ve been attacked?" |
32613 | He was deadly calm now, and when Honolulu finished he grabbed the mike from Sparks, cut in the TX and asked,"Are they landing discs on the mainlands?" |
32613 | I ca n''t explain the flying disc unless it''s extraterrestrial, but why would an invader choose an isolated spot like this to attack? |
32613 | What do you say?" |
32613 | Why these little flies?" |
21456 | All ready, there? |
21456 | And may I ask you in return where you come from, and what is the object of your voyage? |
21456 | Any chance of a breeze soon? |
21456 | Are we going the right way? |
21456 | Do you think, Platt, that, we shall be long delayed by this provoking calm? |
21456 | Dots, do you call them, young gentleman? |
21456 | Have you many of them, captain? |
21456 | Hillo, Dick Tilston, can that be you? |
21456 | Hillo, what are those dots out there? |
21456 | How far off is she? 21456 Is there much danger, do you think, Ned?" |
21456 | Is there no way to stop her from doing that? |
21456 | Is this all right, Mr Platt? |
21456 | Now, which of you would like to accompany me into the cavern? |
21456 | Shall we never get to the end of this terrible reef? |
21456 | Then could n''t we go over land, and warn my brother? |
21456 | What can that be, sir? |
21456 | What have you been trading in? |
21456 | What should we poor girls do all alone by ourselves in this little bakehouse? |
21456 | Where have you come from? 21456 Where''s the difficulty? |
21456 | Why, what has become of the soft green turf we saw? |
21456 | Why, what''s the matter? |
21456 | You do n''t happen to have any liquor aboard? |
21456 | Are you Charles Tilston?" |
21456 | At last he exclaimed--"Who are you? |
21456 | Day after day we sailed on without sighting land, and at last Emily exclaimed,"What has become of the islands we have heard so much about? |
21456 | Have you any message there?" |
21456 | How soon can we get there?" |
21456 | What are you about?" |
21456 | What brings you here?" |
21456 | What have you been about?" |
21456 | Who are you? |
21456 | said Harry;"but the question is, how are we to bell the cat, or rather, get hold of a chief?" |
21451 | Ah, among so many, what chance shall I have of finding Ned? |
21451 | Am I poorer? 21451 And so you have followed this plan of yours for some time, and have found it answer?" |
21451 | Did you ever hear speak of your brother Ned? |
21451 | How can you ask that? |
21451 | How is it that your friends are so great and powerful, while I am so poor and miserable? |
21451 | If the ship should sink, I may awake and find myself with Him; but why should I fear? 21451 Shall I go and call them, sir? |
21451 | What''s your name? |
21451 | Where are the rest? |
21451 | Why, boy Hadden, how comes it that you are left in the boat alone? |
21451 | Why, we think nothing of that sort of thing; what harm can come of it? |
21451 | You are always talking about doing right in this thing and that; but how do you know what is right? |
21451 | ` But our people may go on shore and amuse themselves?'' 21451 Am I more feeble, am I thinner, am I more sickly than my neighbours? 21451 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galileans_ were_ sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered such things? 21451 But are you indeed my brother Ned? 21451 But you''ve been to sea before, have n''t you? |
21451 | Can you tell me anything about him?" |
21451 | Did you ever learn how to read your Bible?" |
21451 | Even then, did these till lately savages curse their oppressors? |
21451 | He did not say, as some do,"I can read, and I can pray; and so why should I go away from my own home and own fireside to listen to another man?" |
21451 | He had been the first to see the iceberg, why should he not be the first to see land? |
21451 | He will help me to teach you; wo n''t you, Ben?" |
21451 | How can the people get on? |
21451 | How could they tell, though, that they were not to meet with the fate from which they had a few days before escaped? |
21451 | How do we act? |
21451 | How was he to light a fire, however? |
21451 | If they were savages, should he hide himself, and trust to their going away again? |
21451 | It is not his business to be saying, Why am I to do this? |
21451 | Neighbours often say to me,` How is it, John Hadden, that your sons are good steady young men, and do as you tell them?'' |
21451 | Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? |
21451 | Should darkness be down on them before they were clear of the reef, what hope of escape could they have? |
21451 | There are many other reasons, but that is one, is it not?" |
21451 | Were they savages? |
21451 | What do you say to it?" |
21451 | What does that verse mean? |
21451 | What mattered it to these wretches whether the islanders they proposed to enslave were Christians and civilised, or cannibal savages? |
21451 | What say you? |
21451 | What should you say if I was to tell you that I am Ned Hadden?" |
21451 | Where are the rest?" |
21451 | Whose wages are those gained by working on the Sabbath but his? |
21451 | Why am I to do that? |
21451 | Will you stay by my lads and me, and do the job?" |
21451 | Wo n''t you, there''s a good fellow?" |
21451 | Would he put his cocoa- nut on it? |
21451 | Yet, weak as he was, how could he climb up to the top of those trees? |
21451 | am I less able to work?" |
21451 | and does not God promise that He will hear our prayers, and send the Holy Spirit to guide us?" |
21451 | are my children worse educated? |
21451 | are they inferior in health, strength, or activity to the children of others in the hamlet?" |
21451 | how can they do their duty? |
21451 | is my cottage less comfortable? |
21451 | where can you be-- among savages, or killed? |
21451 | wherever did you learn such stuff?" |
21457 | And, Joseph, my friend, where would you now have been had you not been rescued by the hand of mercy from the jaws of death? |
21457 | Are they men or are they baboons? |
21457 | Art down- hearted, lad, because we have not been more successful in our traffic? 21457 But you will sell your cattle and poultry?" |
21457 | Christians? 21457 Does he mention the name of Joseph Bent?" |
21457 | Friend Golding, what do you now say of these pleasant- mannered, happy islanders? |
21457 | How could these black savages, who have never seen a book in their lives, understand the Bible, even if you gave it them? 21457 How far off are the canoes?" |
21457 | How long have you been a Christian? |
21457 | I suppose, father, that you are alluding to the labours of missionaries in foreign lands? |
21457 | Of what will the sacrifice consist? |
21457 | We have no chance of trading with such people; and if we were to kill a few, what would it matter? |
21457 | What say you, Mr Bent; would you like to make the attempt? |
21457 | What''s the harm? |
21457 | What, because the enemy begins the fight shall the soldier desert his standard? |
21457 | Who can this Bent really be? |
21457 | Why, O chiefs, did you come to attack my island and my people? |
21457 | Would you then selfishly deprive others of the blessings you enjoy? |
21457 | Would you, who know the gospel, keep back the instrument which brought it to you from presenting it to others? 21457 Yes,"was the quiet answer;"but all desire to hear the word, and why should any be excluded? |
21457 | Yet how is it to be avoided? |
21457 | A signal of distress is flying from a staff lashed to the main- mast; but, with the sea now running, what help can we render her hapless crew? |
21457 | After the usual salutations, the chief turned to the teachers and said,` Have you brought a fish spear?'' |
21457 | And why, it may be asked, was this congregation of natives in one place? |
21457 | Are such, too, the blessings which we Christian and civilised men distribute in our course round the globe? |
21457 | Are we more afraid of a fellow- creature than of the Maker and Judge of all the world? |
21457 | Are you constantly pointing out to each other the heavenward way? |
21457 | Are you each jealously watchful over every word and action which may lead the other into sin? |
21457 | But I will ask you, Do you expect to be saved by your works? |
21457 | But do you pray together, and pray aright? |
21457 | But where were our companions? |
21457 | Can one man owe a greater debt to another than I owe to him? |
21457 | Do I once more hear that dear voice,--do I once more kiss those sweet lips which have told me such holy truths? |
21457 | Do we value most the lips which tell us holy truths or those which speak to us pleasant words,--flattering words? |
21457 | Do we, with all our learning, and knowledge, and religious privileges, thus measure the value of our friends? |
21457 | Do you more earnestly desire each other''s salvation than all the wealth the world can give, than all earthly blessings? |
21457 | Do you read the Scriptures together? |
21457 | Have we not shot down the poor savages, who have been defending their own shores? |
21457 | Have you assured yourselves that you will meet together before the great white throne clothed in the bright robes of the Lamb? |
21457 | How can we dare to doubt how the gospel will in the end be received? |
21457 | How can we expect the heathen to become Christians, when those who call themselves so show so little regard to the religion of Christ? |
21457 | How comes it that we do not always bear that truth in mind? |
21457 | How many of our friends are our soul''s friends? |
21457 | Husbands and wives, do you watch over each other''s spiritual welfare? |
21457 | In what sort of amusements do you indulge? |
21457 | In what state do we find those vast territories of the New World conquered by Spain? |
21457 | Is it not possible that some of the customs I have mentioned, though barbarous and debased, may have been derived from ancient tradition? |
21457 | It at once occurred to me, would it prove a snare to him? |
21457 | Might he not also, after all, compel her to become the wife of the cannibal chief to whom she had been betrothed? |
21457 | Or-- I look through my glass-- has she been capsized by the breakers? |
21457 | Should I fight, or should I not? |
21457 | The interpreter then shouted out,"If the small gun of this little boat will do all this mischief, what would all the great guns of the big ship do?" |
21457 | The poor wretches have received punishment enough, and why thus slaughter them when our own safety does not sternly require us to kill? |
21457 | These people, we learn from Tony Hinks, who has before been on the coast( indeed where has he not been?) |
21457 | Was it the one I had climbed over, or was it one which had fallen after I had passed? |
21457 | Were we the only ones alive out of the whole party? |
21457 | What are they now? |
21457 | What could be the attraction? |
21457 | What does that mean, Mr Harvey?" |
21457 | What has been the fate of the rest? |
21457 | What means that longing for a better land far away in the east, entertained by the Marquesas islanders? |
21457 | What power can assuage such a flood of iniquity? |
21457 | What says the Bible? |
21457 | What should you suppose is the total expense of instructing, clothing, feeding, and lodging these most valuable missionaries? |
21457 | What sort of places do you prefer to visit? |
21457 | What, however, do we do? |
21457 | When I remarked that I now had reasonable hopes that he would succeed--"Who can doubt it?" |
21457 | When the priests you speak of come, will they tell us better?" |
21457 | Whence has sprung that strange expectation of the return of their long- lost god, Rona, to bring a blessing on their nation? |
21457 | Where, indeed, is it not to be found, if waited for with patience? |
21457 | Where, too, is her assurance that they will be reunited? |
21457 | Who among us dreams of expelling the Turks from Syria? |
21457 | Who is to decide then from what depths of moral degradation the power of God''s grace will fail to lift up a human being? |
21457 | Whose head would stand a single blow from one of them?" |
21457 | Why did you desire to do us harm?" |
21457 | Why keep back the men from firing? |
21457 | Why should I?" |
21457 | Why should we doubt? |
21457 | Why then be distracted by the glittering baubles which are held up to draw their attention from the real jewel-- the gem without price? |
21457 | Why this delay?'' |
21457 | Will this one be saved? |
21457 | With whom do you associate? |
21457 | Would it induce him to abandon his high and holy calling? |
21457 | Would the man of property be unwilling to remain the humble missionary? |
21457 | Yet I asked myself more than once, Why should I grieve? |
21457 | You find it a tough job? |
21457 | ` Is it right,''he asked, in a humble tone,` for me to say, in the language of Saint Paul,"I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course"? |
21457 | are you any relative to that devoted missionary, John Harvey?" |
21457 | go off at once, dear John, and leave us all?" |
21457 | were these taken in war?" |
21457 | why do you ask for that?'' |
21457 | why should I be anxious? |
31012 | ''And is this Case a man of a sanctified life?'' 31012 ''And who has been telling you about the Evil Eye?'' |
31012 | And I''m still to be tabooed for nothing? |
31012 | And after all, what for? |
31012 | And do you mean to tell me you can swallow a yarn like that? |
31012 | And in the name of God where are we? |
31012 | And now what am I to do for you? 31012 And now,"said I,"what is all this about?" |
31012 | And now,said the wizard,"what do you think about that concertina? |
31012 | And suppose I had come round after? |
31012 | And to Tamasese? |
31012 | And what became of the priest? |
31012 | And what can I do for you, Mr.----? |
31012 | And what is the profit to the local trader? |
31012 | And what kind of things does he make for him? |
31012 | And yet you talk of selling it yourself? |
31012 | And you mean to say you would have married him? |
31012 | And you, I suppose, are the new trader? |
31012 | Are he and the king in different places? |
31012 | Are you gone crazy, Case? 31012 Are you married yourself?" |
31012 | As one stranger to another, and as an old man to a young woman, will you help a daughter of Hawaii? |
31012 | But if a German man- of- war does it? |
31012 | But why are you so much concerned? 31012 But why should we not take your own, which is afloat already?" |
31012 | By the by,I said,"what sort of a party is that priest? |
31012 | Can this be true? |
31012 | Did you ever hear that Case had poisoned Johnny Adams? |
31012 | Do I look as if I was jesting? |
31012 | Do n''t you speak any English? |
31012 | Do you catch a bit of white there to the east''ard? |
31012 | Do you indeed? |
31012 | Do you mean they wo n''t take the taboo off? |
31012 | Do you not see the king? |
31012 | Ese no tell you? |
31012 | For,said she,"we must seem to be rich folks, or who will believe in the bottle?" |
31012 | Frightened? |
31012 | Good shooting here? |
31012 | Had not your uncle lands in Hawaii, in the district of Kaü? |
31012 | Have you any ammunition to fit that gun? |
31012 | Have you found out what''s the reason? |
31012 | Have you had enough? |
31012 | Have you had enough? |
31012 | Have you taken their heads? |
31012 | He like you too much? |
31012 | He want savvy if you hear devil sing? |
31012 | He want savvy if you no''fraid? |
31012 | He? |
31012 | How am I to know that this is all true? |
31012 | How comes it that I do not know you? |
31012 | How do you like this? |
31012 | How much did it cost you? |
31012 | How would you expect me to? 31012 How your hand he get hurt?" |
31012 | I am an old man,replied the other,"and too near the gate of the grave to take a favour from the devil.--But what is this? |
31012 | I think,said she, mighty solemn-- and then, presently--"Victoreea, he big chief?" |
31012 | I wonder if you''re dead? 31012 I_ am_ tabooed, then?" |
31012 | If he thought all that, why did he not help me? |
31012 | In short, you''re afraid? |
31012 | Is he far from Apia? |
31012 | Is he with the king? |
31012 | Is it long? |
31012 | Is it not a terrible thing to save oneself by the eternal ruin of another? 31012 Is that the steamer?" |
31012 | Is your husband near Apia? |
31012 | Look here, Wiltshire, do you think me a fool? |
31012 | Mate, I wonder are you making a fool of me? |
31012 | Mean? |
31012 | Mr. Tarleton, I believe? |
31012 | My God Almighty, Uma, is that you? |
31012 | Nobody he go there? |
31012 | Old man,said Kokua,"what do you here abroad in the cold night?" |
31012 | Shall we return to the beach? |
31012 | Sounds likely, do n''t it? |
31012 | Surely these white men on the beach are not great chiefs? |
31012 | The house? |
31012 | The priest? |
31012 | These lands will now be yours? |
31012 | They wo n''t go near me? 31012 This is the bottle,"said the man; and when Keawe laughed,"You do not believe me?" |
31012 | Three weeks? 31012 Uma, she devil?" |
31012 | Uma,says I, when I got back,"what does_ Tiapolo_ mean?" |
31012 | Was it thought to be the island? |
31012 | We''ve had an epidemic here; and Captain Randall takes gin for a prophylactic-- don''t you, Papa? |
31012 | Well, do you think it would better me to shoot you here, on this open beach? |
31012 | Well, is that all? |
31012 | Well, suppose it is; what''s she carrying on about? |
31012 | Well,I said, sneering,"and I suppose you thought Case''very pretty''and''liked too much''?" |
31012 | Well,asked Lopaka,"is it all as you designed?" |
31012 | Well,said I,"you''re frank and pleasant, ai n''t you? |
31012 | Well,said he,"what have you been doing?" |
31012 | Wha''s he want Uma for? 31012 What ails you,"said Lopaka,"that you stare in your chest?" |
31012 | What ails you? |
31012 | What are you doing? |
31012 | What can I do to serve you? |
31012 | What did he die of? |
31012 | What do you mean? |
31012 | What does fussy- ocky mean? |
31012 | What has become of the cartridge- belt? |
31012 | What is afoot now? |
31012 | What is this that you and the German commodore have decided on doing? |
31012 | What is this? |
31012 | What was this? |
31012 | What''s he been saying? |
31012 | What''s that you say? |
31012 | Where is he? |
31012 | Who the devil''s this? |
31012 | Who''s she? |
31012 | Whom did you find in Apia to tell you so much good of me? |
31012 | Why do n''t you let the dogs die? |
31012 | Why else should she be so cast down at my release? 31012 Why should I work,"thought he,"when I have a father- in- law who makes dollars of sea- shells?" |
31012 | Why would these islands all be chock full of them and none in Europe? |
31012 | Why you bring him? |
31012 | Why you talk big voice? 31012 Why, how many tons of copra may they make in this district?" |
31012 | Why,said Keola,"what is wrong with you now?" |
31012 | Will you do me a service? |
31012 | Would you not care to view the chambers? |
31012 | You ai n''t afraid of her? |
31012 | You are not deceiving me? |
31012 | You are there with the mat? |
31012 | You come alone? |
31012 | You do n''t tell me? |
31012 | You do not mean to say you are serious about that bottle? |
31012 | You have done this for me? |
31012 | You mean you wo n''t sell it? |
31012 | You mean you wo n''t? |
31012 | You no savvy? |
31012 | You no''fraid? |
31012 | You propose that the conference is to adjourn and not to be broken up? |
31012 | You shot him? |
31012 | You tell me true? 31012 You think me one devil?" |
31012 | _ Ifea Siamani?_ Which is the German? |
31012 | _ Ifea Siamani?_ Which is the German? |
31012 | ''Me bigoted? |
31012 | ''What would you do, old man?'' |
31012 | ''s he come here for his health, anyway? |
31012 | --telegraphed direct home for instructions,"Is arrest of foreigners on foreign vessels legal?" |
31012 | A concertina? |
31012 | A third followed, a mere boy, with the end of his nose shot off:"Have you any painkiller? |
31012 | Am I so dull of spirit that never till now I have surmised my duty, or have I seen it before and turned aside? |
31012 | And all I want to know is just this: did you see Case''s figure- head about a week ago?" |
31012 | And he thought also,"Where are the grey mountains? |
31012 | And how do I know? |
31012 | And what do I want? |
31012 | And what should I do? |
31012 | And what was he smoking? |
31012 | And where is the high cliff with the hanging forest and the wheeling birds?" |
31012 | And who got the land? |
31012 | And who is to distinguish such a process from the state of war? |
31012 | And who''s to make''em? |
31012 | Are you strong enough to launch Pili''s boat?" |
31012 | But in that intricate affair who lost the money? |
31012 | But tell me, first of all, one thing: Are you married?" |
31012 | But the king, once elected and nominated, what does he become? |
31012 | But what other hope have I to cure my sickness or to we d Kokua? |
31012 | But what was I to do? |
31012 | But what would you have? |
31012 | But what wrong have I done, what sin lies upon my soul, that I should have encountered Kokua coming cool from the sea- water in the evening? |
31012 | But whether he was slain in the battle by the trees, or whether he is still kicking his heels upon the Isle of Voices, who shall say? |
31012 | But who was going to trust the match? |
31012 | But you do n''t mean to say you expect a law- obliging people to deal in your store whether they want to or not? |
31012 | But, Misi, is it not so that when David killed Goliath, he cut off his head and carried it before the king?" |
31012 | Did n''t you hear Maea-- that''s the young chief, the big one-- ripping out about''Vika''? |
31012 | Do you feel the point of that? |
31012 | Do you hesitate?" |
31012 | Do you think I am so base as that? |
31012 | Doubtless, as he had written long before, the consul alone was responsible"on the legal side"; but the captain began to ask himself,"What next?" |
31012 | Ever met Buncombe?" |
31012 | For why did the old reprobate require the bottle?" |
31012 | Had he no party, then? |
31012 | Had they a mind to attack? |
31012 | Have I lived to hear it from a jackanapes like you?'' |
31012 | Have you seen a child when he is all alone and has a wooden sword, and fights, leaping and hewing with the empty air? |
31012 | He is strongly conscious of his own position as the common milk- cow; and what is he to do? |
31012 | How can Case be Tiapolo?" |
31012 | How comes it, then, that you should be sighing?" |
31012 | How if this should be the doing of the bottle? |
31012 | How was I to find as good? |
31012 | I ca n''t reconcile my mind to their taking up with Kanakas, and I''d like to know where I''m to find the whites? |
31012 | I said,"how do you suppose we get along with our own_ aitus_ at home? |
31012 | If Brandeis were minded to deal fairly, where was the probability that he would be allowed? |
31012 | In addition to the old conundrum,"Who is the king?" |
31012 | Is that the position?" |
31012 | Is there anything wrong about the price?" |
31012 | Keola went up the beach, which was of shining sand and coral, strewn with singular shells; and he thought in his heart--"How do I not know this beach? |
31012 | My public- house? |
31012 | No?" |
31012 | Now, what would any man do in my place, if he was a man?" |
31012 | Of what help was the consul thinking? |
31012 | Or, if I ai n''t tabooed, what makes the folks afraid of me?" |
31012 | Own up now; you had word of this before?" |
31012 | She ate not a bite, but who was to observe it? |
31012 | The thing was a common conjuring trick which I have seen performed at home a score of times; but how was I to convince the villagers of that? |
31012 | The words of the German sailor must be regarded as imaginary: how was the poor lad to speak native, or the Samoan to understand German? |
31012 | This excellent, if ignominious, idea once entertained, why was it let drop? |
31012 | This time he was so pleased he had to try his English again:"You talk true?" |
31012 | To be sure it was; but who was Becker to be complaining of intrigue? |
31012 | Uma, when people began to leave you and your mother alone, what did Namu do?" |
31012 | Was it conceivable, then, that he meant it? |
31012 | Was it weapons or ammunition that Fletcher had supplied? |
31012 | Was she still proceeding on Mulinuu? |
31012 | Were they Germans or Tamaseses? |
31012 | Wha''''n hell''s he want Uma for?" |
31012 | What ailed them now? |
31012 | What ails me that I throw this cloud upon my husband?" |
31012 | What am I tabooed for, anyway? |
31012 | What are they frightened of?" |
31012 | What can a Samoan gather from the words,_ election? |
31012 | What chance had she to sell that bottle at two centimes? |
31012 | What do you mean by that? |
31012 | What else could be expected? |
31012 | What is the price by now?" |
31012 | What is this you say about a cent? |
31012 | What more natural, to the mind of a European, than that the Mataafas should fall upon the Germans in this hour of their disadvantage? |
31012 | What was the use of casting my pearls before her? |
31012 | What was their errand? |
31012 | What were the new- comers? |
31012 | What''ll you bet they ai n''t after gin? |
31012 | Where should I look for a better? |
31012 | Where, in all this, are we to find a corner of responsibility for the king of Samoa? |
31012 | Who are you?" |
31012 | Why do you not take the bottle? |
31012 | Why does it not hurt?" |
31012 | Why should I? |
31012 | Why should I? |
31012 | Why wo n''t they go near me?" |
31012 | Why, then, had he changed it? |
31012 | Will you know what was in his heart?'' |
31012 | Would it be possible for you three consuls to make Tamasese remove from German property? |
31012 | Would you like to see Galoshes?'' |
31012 | You do n''t mean to tell me you''ve got the gall for that? |
31012 | You do not know the price?" |
31012 | You have some money, I suppose?" |
31012 | You like me stop?" |
31012 | You my friend?" |
31012 | You thought you could make a cat''s- paw of me, did you?" |
31012 | and are you sure you would not rather have a flute? |
31012 | cried Keawe,"two cents? |
31012 | election of a king according to the laws and customs of Samoa_? |
31012 | election of a king? |
31012 | he cried,"except to leave me lonely till the time comes of my damnation?" |
31012 | he thought,"would I beard the devil once, only to get me a house, and not face him again to win Kokua?" |
31012 | is that you?" |
31012 | says I,"are you a Papist?" |
31012 | says I,"got- um plenty devil, that bush?" |
31012 | she cried,"what ails me? |
31012 | they had supplied a new one,"What is the vice- king?" |
31012 | you loved me, and gave your soul, and you think I will not die to save you in return?" |
31012 | you might die a hundred times, and what difference would that make?" |
10862 | After Edith Herndon? |
10862 | And did I pass muster? |
10862 | And food? |
10862 | And is it there that the Professor will conduct his search? |
10862 | And the captain? |
10862 | And they went over here? |
10862 | And who are you, sir? 10862 And you are not afraid?" |
10862 | And you do n''t know what they meant by their song about the white waterfall and Black Fernando''s hell? |
10862 | Are they there? |
10862 | Are we mad, Verslun? |
10862 | Are we saved? 10862 Are you Jack Verslun?" |
10862 | Are you coming? |
10862 | Are you hurt? |
10862 | Are you there? |
10862 | Barbara? |
10862 | But Soma? |
10862 | But Toni? |
10862 | But do you know the particular line we are after? |
10862 | But how are we to cross it? |
10862 | But how can we? |
10862 | But if Captain Newmarch orders you to stay with the yacht? |
10862 | But if he does n''t come this way? |
10862 | But it is true that you were quoting Bunyan on the wharf when Mr. Holman found you, is n''t it? |
10862 | But surely this test is not carried on at the present time? |
10862 | But the Professor? |
10862 | But the bare facts? |
10862 | But the girls? |
10862 | But the young ladies? |
10862 | But we should let the girls know something, should n''t we? 10862 But what are you doing aboard?" |
10862 | But what did the wizard men say? |
10862 | But what did we climb up here for? |
10862 | But what will happen to the girls? |
10862 | But where are they? 10862 But your impression?" |
10862 | By the way,he growled, as I fell upon the plate of tinned salmon which Edith Herndon handed to me,"who was doing the shooting this afternoon?" |
10862 | Ca n''t you tell the story over again? |
10862 | Can Verslun and I make the attempt and leave you three here? |
10862 | Did I kill him? |
10862 | Did n''t he say that this place was uninhabited? |
10862 | Did we come for the view alone? |
10862 | Did you hear anything? |
10862 | Did you pass it? 10862 Did you?" |
10862 | Do n''t you remember that the colour of the walls darkened rapidly below the Ledge of Death? |
10862 | Do n''t you remember where he threatened to put the five babies? |
10862 | Do n''t you? |
10862 | Do you expect them to go down on to that path? |
10862 | Do you hear me? 10862 Do you know Toni?" |
10862 | Do you know that nigger you rescued? |
10862 | Do you know what this is? |
10862 | Do you know what we''re after? |
10862 | Do you know? |
10862 | Do you remember much of it? |
10862 | Do you think he slipped down while I was climbing the tree? |
10862 | Do you think he was helped overboard? |
10862 | Do you think that Leith has made for the camp? |
10862 | Do you think we''ll put in anywhere in the Samoan Group? |
10862 | Dreaming? 10862 Five babies?" |
10862 | Gave you a shock, eh? |
10862 | Had n''t I better go with you? |
10862 | Have you been around the spot we are making for? |
10862 | How did you get out? |
10862 | How do you know? |
10862 | How far did we roll? |
10862 | How is that, Soma? |
10862 | How is that? |
10862 | How many paces? |
10862 | How many paces? |
10862 | How? |
10862 | How? |
10862 | I am stretching out my arm, Mr. Holman; will you come here to me and feel the direction I am pointing in? |
10862 | I counted right, did n''t I? |
10862 | I hope you slept well? |
10862 | I suppose the left side will be the one upon our left hand when facing the fall? |
10862 | I wonder who it is? |
10862 | If I go wrong, you put me right, will you? 10862 If we could catch this lunatic on the cliff?" |
10862 | Is it any good of attempting to convince the Professor? |
10862 | Is there any choice of direction? |
10862 | Is there anything in it about a white waterfall that is on the way to heaven out of Black Fernando''s hell? |
10862 | Mighty hot afternoon, is n''t it, boss? |
10862 | Native? |
10862 | Now who goes first? |
10862 | Oh, you are the new mate? |
10862 | Our best? |
10862 | Pleasant? |
10862 | Say,murmured Holman,"do you remember what the Professor said about this place the other night when he was speaking about sacrificial altars?" |
10862 | Say? |
10862 | See the streak of light through that split in the rock? |
10862 | Shall we go in? |
10862 | Sleepy? |
10862 | So it has been pleasant? |
10862 | Some one else upon the island? 10862 Sorry?" |
10862 | That''s so,I remarked,"but how are we to get up to the point where the signal came from?" |
10862 | The Isle of Tears? |
10862 | The captain thinks we are in for a spell of bad weather, Mr. Verslun,he drawled;"are you of the same opinion?" |
10862 | Then you want me to go? |
10862 | Then-- then there is another lady aboard? |
10862 | They said to the left, did n''t they? |
10862 | To the right, is n''t it? |
10862 | To the right? |
10862 | To the what? |
10862 | Toni? |
10862 | Verslun, did you hear? |
10862 | We mentioned? |
10862 | Well, what are we to do? |
10862 | Well? |
10862 | Well? |
10862 | Well? |
10862 | Well? |
10862 | What about Kaipi? |
10862 | What about him? |
10862 | What about the white waterfall? |
10862 | What are they doing? |
10862 | What are you hinting at? |
10862 | What can we do? |
10862 | What do you make of it? |
10862 | What do you make of it? |
10862 | What do you make of it? |
10862 | What do you mean? |
10862 | What do you think of Leith? |
10862 | What for? |
10862 | What for? |
10862 | What has Bunyan got to do with my business? |
10862 | What has this nonsense to do with me? |
10862 | What is all this about the white waterfall? |
10862 | What is it, Holman? |
10862 | What is it? |
10862 | What is it? |
10862 | What is it? |
10862 | What is it? |
10862 | What is it? |
10862 | What is it? |
10862 | What is it? |
10862 | What is that? |
10862 | What should we have done? |
10862 | What sort of a fool game are you up to? |
10862 | What the devil do you mean by trying to knife me? |
10862 | What the devil do you want to go for? |
10862 | What the devil is wrong? |
10862 | What time is it? |
10862 | What was that? |
10862 | What was that? |
10862 | What white waterfall, boss? |
10862 | What will we do? |
10862 | What''ll we do? |
10862 | What''ll we do? |
10862 | What''s that? |
10862 | What''s the grin for? |
10862 | What''s the matter with you? |
10862 | What''s the matter? |
10862 | What''s this? |
10862 | What''s up? |
10862 | What''s up? |
10862 | What''s up? |
10862 | What''s wrong now? 10862 What''s wrong with Leith?" |
10862 | What? 10862 What?" |
10862 | When was this wonderful custom in force? |
10862 | When? |
10862 | Where are they taking us? |
10862 | Where are we? 10862 Where are we?" |
10862 | Where are you bound? |
10862 | Where are you, Holman? 10862 Where did we lose her? |
10862 | Where has he gone? |
10862 | Where is he? |
10862 | Where is he? |
10862 | Where the dickens are we going? |
10862 | Where? |
10862 | Which way did they go? |
10862 | Who is it? |
10862 | Who is there? |
10862 | Who knifed him? |
10862 | Who says so? |
10862 | Who the devil gave you permission to come here? |
10862 | Who? |
10862 | Who? |
10862 | Why did n''t we wait at the door of that place till the brute came out? |
10862 | Why did you ask him that? |
10862 | Why did you let go of One Eye? 10862 Why did you throw that knife?" |
10862 | Why do you think that? |
10862 | Why not? |
10862 | Why would she give him a ring? 10862 Why-- what do you mean?" |
10862 | Why-- who-- how the devil did you get this? |
10862 | Why? |
10862 | Why? |
10862 | Why? |
10862 | Why? |
10862 | Why? |
10862 | Why? |
10862 | Why? |
10862 | Will our death prevent it? |
10862 | Yes,I muttered;"and what do his daughters say?" |
10862 | You do not dislike the idea of going? |
10862 | You have been a long while in the Islands? |
10862 | You say all the boys had to climb over there? |
10862 | You were n''t dreaming? |
10862 | You will stay with the yacht, I suppose? |
10862 | You''ll do what? |
10862 | You''re not sorry I found you on that pile of pearl shell? |
10862 | Are you dead, Verslun? |
10862 | Are you ready Edith? |
10862 | Are you ready? |
10862 | Are you willing?" |
10862 | But why had Toni been killed? |
10862 | But you have n''t met Mr. Verslun yet, have you?" |
10862 | By the way, what position do you hold in the expedition?" |
10862 | Do n''t you see? |
10862 | Do n''t you think she''s a jolly nice girl?" |
10862 | Do you hear me? |
10862 | Do you hear me? |
10862 | Do you hear?" |
10862 | Do you know that Barbara and I have n''t spoken a word during the last hour? |
10862 | Do you know what Soma told the Professor about the bad men falling into this infernal pit?" |
10862 | Do you know what he told me yesterday?" |
10862 | Do you know who I am?" |
10862 | Do you mean to say that he was ignorant of the fact that it was the Isle of Tears and not Penrose Island that we were making for?" |
10862 | Do you think they were?" |
10862 | Do you understand? |
10862 | Do you understand?" |
10862 | Do you want it?" |
10862 | Does it strike you that way?" |
10862 | Does your father intend to go far inland?" |
10862 | Has anything happened?" |
10862 | He''s a bad egg, do you hear? |
10862 | How much ammunition have you? |
10862 | I had seen light-- the light of what? |
10862 | I wonder if Maru and Kaipi came near it?" |
10862 | Leith?" |
10862 | Penrose Island?" |
10862 | Promise to help me, will you? |
10862 | Say,"I added,"did you ever read Pilgrim''s Progress''?" |
10862 | They always surround the ill- fated ship, do n''t they?" |
10862 | What do you think?" |
10862 | What way did we come?" |
10862 | What''s the use of taking me?" |
10862 | Where are my daughters?" |
10862 | Where are you, father?" |
10862 | Where are you?" |
10862 | Where has the devil put them?" |
10862 | Who said they were scientists?" |
10862 | Why did n''t we examine the cavern near the fire before chasing him? |
10862 | Why does n''t he hurry?" |
10862 | Why had Leith exhibited such curiosity about the song when he heard me relating the incident to the two sisters on board the yacht? |
10862 | You hear what Mr. Leith says? |
10862 | You know why?" |
12639 | Ah, I did n''t know you Americans went in much for family tombs? |
12639 | Ah, you would, would you? 12639 Always did think the chap a frightful bounder, do n''t you know? |
12639 | And the name of this influential person? |
12639 | And where is Captain Magnus? |
12639 | And you think he is in the conspiracy too? |
12639 | And you''ll go along as cabin- boy or something? |
12639 | Ask me? 12639 Because I wish to save my poor aunt from such a situation as this? |
12639 | Better not? |
12639 | Bitter, perhaps,I flung back,"but is it not true? |
12639 | But before I go further, kindly tell me whether you have had any-- ah-- visitors during your stay on the island? |
12639 | But the gold? |
12639 | Dead ones? 12639 Did you think o''rowin''the whole way round the dinged chunk o''rock?" |
12639 | Do n''t you see,I cried,"how ridiculous it all is? |
12639 | Do you forget that I owe you my life? |
12639 | Do you suppose I can loaf about the harbor here a- waitin''on your aunt''s fits? 12639 Fo''de Lawd''s sake, Miss Jinny,"he burst out at last,"am dat de ghos''-pig?" |
12639 | For-- for the island? |
12639 | Friends? |
12639 | Got away with it how? 12639 Got away with it?" |
12639 | How did you like Panama? 12639 How do you know, really, that he ever did leave the island?" |
12639 | However, we have the treasure-- the main point, is it not? 12639 I bet we do n''t put it over some on them original Argonaut fellers, hey?" |
12639 | I can, can I? |
12639 | I say,interposed one of the party nervously,"what''s the good of that kind of talk? |
12639 | I was jest telling you, was n''t I? |
12639 | I? 12639 In more detail?" |
12639 | It is an arm which is at your service for life-- but what am I to do with it now? 12639 It''s true the cave would be a likely and convenient place for hiding the chest; the question is: Would n''t it be too likely and convenient? |
12639 | It-- it do n''t happen to say in more deetail jest precisely where that cave might be looked for? |
12639 | Lad,he said quietly,"lend a hand below, will you? |
12639 | Lad,said the Scotchman in a suddenly harsh voice,"lend a hand with this rope, will you?" |
12639 | Lady drop anything? |
12639 | Learning to like what I do already, hey? |
12639 | Liked it? 12639 Looky here, darky, git busy dishin''up the grub, will you? |
12639 | Loose? 12639 Maybe not,"admitted Tony,"but suppose that feller died awful slow, and went on hollering and clutching at the bags? |
12639 | Miss Jane Harding? |
12639 | Miss Jinny, it mos''look lak yo''''bout to go perambulatin''in dese yere woods? |
12639 | Named your dog over again, Miss Jinny? |
12639 | Nap? 12639 Never guessed I was n''t here jest to do the shovel work, but might have my own little side- show to bring off, hey?" |
12639 | Not so dusty, eh? |
12639 | Oh, I say, are n''t you a bit rough on Miss Browne? 12639 Oh, I''m impert''nent, am I? |
12639 | Oh, really, now,argued the paragon earnestly,"I''m quite sure there''s no danger of that, do n''t you know? |
12639 | Oh-- listen-- didn''t you hear something? |
12639 | One of those chaps that backed Goliath against David, what? |
12639 | Only lady passenger, eh? 12639 Pray, Mr. Tubbs, what further detail could be required?" |
12639 | Ready, Miss Harding? 12639 Say, are you a human iceberg, to talk that cool before a man''s own face? |
12639 | Say,he remarked to me in a confidential undertone, though pitched quite loud enough for Miss Browne''s ears,"is it real? |
12639 | Say,he said harshly,"hold back that dog, will you? |
12639 | Scolding you? 12639 Then I suppose you consider that he was inveigled too?" |
12639 | Then why are you scolding me? |
12639 | Then why leave her strewn about on the rocks? 12639 They would n''t leave that for a scarecrow, would they?" |
12639 | Treachery? 12639 Turn around, is it, turn around?" |
12639 | War am Cap''n now? |
12639 | Well, chickabiddies, we ai n''t treated you harsh, I hope? 12639 Well?" |
12639 | What in the world do you suppose brought such a mite of a thing to this unheard- of spot? |
12639 | What say, boys? 12639 What was it, Cookie?" |
12639 | What was the good o''digging up jest these here couple o''bag''s and quitting? |
12639 | What was the point in not digging''em all up while you was about it? |
12639 | What would he want with her? 12639 What''s in a name?" |
12639 | What''s the matter? 12639 What''s this mean? |
12639 | What''s wrong? |
12639 | What''s your hurry? |
12639 | What? |
12639 | Where are they, where are they? |
12639 | Who ever heard of a pirate''s treasure that was n''t moonshine? 12639 Who-- the copra chap? |
12639 | Why did n''t you stay by the fire and have your nap out? |
12639 | Why do n''t you believe it? |
12639 | Why not send''em down to their chums the way we do the eats? |
12639 | Why the devil should you think I''ve got your aunt? |
12639 | Why, what else can it be? |
12639 | Yes, auntie? |
12639 | Yo''think I scared of any ghos''what lower hissel to be a live white mong''ol dog? 12639 You are the American and English party who landed here some weeks ago from the_ Rufus Smith_?" |
12639 | You mean_ the_ chest-- the chest that held the Spanish doubloons-- that lies under the sand in the sloop? |
12639 | You wo n''t say nothin''to git Cookie in a rumpus? |
12639 | Your aunt? 12639 Your aunt?" |
12639 | _ You have found it_? |
12639 | Ai n''t I goin''to have a chance to get square?" |
12639 | Ai n''t you always a- strayin''off with the Honorable? |
12639 | All alone, did I say? |
12639 | And besides"--here the puzzle of Crusoe recurred to me and seemed to link itself with this--"then how did he get away himself?" |
12639 | And how much more, when it is a question of treasure-- of a very large treasure, Senor?" |
12639 | And let them murder me too?" |
12639 | And of course you feel quite sure that on your side you thoroughly understand-- Miss Higglesby- Browne?" |
12639 | And who knew how much more of crime and blood and violence we should send forth into the world with the long- buried treasure? |
12639 | And yet, suppose he thought that like the rest I had wished another in his place? |
12639 | Are even the most valiant adventurers invariably honest? |
12639 | Are maybe even the men of us to be set by the ears through the bickering of women?" |
12639 | Are we to be divided from the beginning by quarrels? |
12639 | As to my being married, if you were betting just now on anybody''s chances they would have to be Captain Magnus''s, would n''t they?" |
12639 | Besides, what right had he to care if I was drowned, anyhow? |
12639 | But as you represent His Excellency the President of the Republic of Santa Marina I suppose you come on business, Senior Gonzales?" |
12639 | But how quell the creature with my eye when I could not see it? |
12639 | But oh, Dugald, had ever a girl such a wonderful bride''s chest as this? |
12639 | But then, what of those whom we had left in camp? |
12639 | But what about the pirates who were still in the cave and would shortly be returning from it? |
12639 | But what was the mysterious fate of Peter? |
12639 | But who that had loved a dog enough to make it the companion of his solitude would go away and leave it? |
12639 | Can I say without hard feelin''s that jest now H. H. was not handled right? |
12639 | Captors and captives forgot all else but the great, the burning question-- had the treasure been discovered? |
12639 | Could I ask Cuthbert Vane to do it, too? |
12639 | Could we leave them undefended to the vengeance of Captain Magnus? |
12639 | Did I come intentionally at all, or because I was shanghaied and could n''t help myself? |
12639 | Did I thank him? |
12639 | Did he think that-- could he, with the memory of my arms about his neck? |
12639 | Did n''t the old chap risk his neck a dozen times a day while this Christopher Columbus stayed high and dry ashore? |
12639 | Did the gold carry with it some deadly influence? |
12639 | Do n''t you suppose it hurt me too?" |
12639 | Do you think I came along with people who did n''t want me, and have turned my own aunt against me, for the sake of filthy lucre? |
12639 | Do you think that for all the treasure ever buried by a pirate I would miss the spectacle of Aunt Jane and Miss Browne arriving? |
12639 | Eh?" |
12639 | Empty? |
12639 | Every last drop gone down somebody''s greedy gullet? |
12639 | Evidently the hermit had got away, so why concern one''s self about the method? |
12639 | First o''that I see, its a dose o''cold lead for youse, savvy?" |
12639 | For business is a cold, usually a disagreeable affair, is it not so? |
12639 | For where was the Tubbs of yesterday-- the honey- tongued, the suave, the anxiously obsequious Tubbs? |
12639 | Had he ever reached the cave to bring away the last of the doubloons? |
12639 | Had he fallen victim to some extraordinary mischance on the way back to the_ Island Queen_? |
12639 | Had he fallen, overboard from the sloop and been drowned? |
12639 | Had he preferred to say that he had taken the wrong ammunition rather than admit that he could get no bag? |
12639 | Had he returned to the cave-- and was he there still? |
12639 | Had n''t he endured the equivalent of Chris''s present sufferings for weeks? |
12639 | Had n''t he grown very tired of pork, and did n''t his soul to this day revolt at a ham sandwich? |
12639 | Had somebody else heard the story of the_ Bonny Lass_ and come after the doubloons, unknowing that we were beforehand with them? |
12639 | Has she been kicking- up a bit? |
12639 | Have you grown so sordid and grasping that you can think of nothing but this blood- stained pirate gold?" |
12639 | He gave me a swift glance which said,_ Shall I spring_? |
12639 | He said Dissenters were so apt to be peculiar, do n''t you know? |
12639 | He sure did n''t leave the island with it, did he? |
12639 | He was showing faint symptoms of revival, and had got as far as"I say--?" |
12639 | How about me? |
12639 | How come you git ashore all dry lak you is? |
12639 | How had I forgotten it, that deadly thing, muttering to itself out there, ready to spring back like an unleashed beast? |
12639 | How, in the first place, had he found them? |
12639 | How, without going into the terrifying place alone, should I find out what was there? |
12639 | I knew what it was not, but what it was I could not, as I stood there rooted, even guess, Would it attack me, or should I only die of fright? |
12639 | I think it is a little severe for my type of face, do n''t you? |
12639 | I thought it just the thing, but Miss Browne said no, helmets were always worn-- Coffee? |
12639 | I wonder if he is pleased that I, a stranger, have come into possession of his secret hoard at last? |
12639 | I wonder what they are all doing at home? |
12639 | I''m far too great a duffer to convert her, but perhaps you might, do n''t you know?" |
12639 | If so, must we do battle for our rights? |
12639 | If, on the other hand, I merely tried to free the prisoners and Captain Magnus woke, what then? |
12639 | In every port we have gold to fling, And what care we though the end is to swing? |
12639 | In the same instant the voice of Cookie, raised to a sharp note of alarm, rang through the camp:"_ My Gawd, what all dis yere mean_?" |
12639 | Indeed, how many human hopes have been bolstered up with arguments no sounder? |
12639 | Is his name ancient? |
12639 | Is my helmet on straight, dear? |
12639 | It was, this remarkable episode, altogether a thing without precedent-- and what was that but another name for the impossible? |
12639 | It''s the doubloons all right-- where''s the rest of''em?" |
12639 | Knew well enough you could n''t get along without the old man, did n''t you? |
12639 | Last but not least, did not his heart and conscience, if he by chance possessed them, ache horribly at the thought of the forsaken Crusoe? |
12639 | Liked to wound Cuthbert--_Cuthbert_? |
12639 | Miss Harding, you do n''t think it''s that-- that the thing''s all moonshine?" |
12639 | More than this, had he not most specifically made over to me the_ Island Queen_ and all that it contained? |
12639 | My love, would I grudge you a_ monument_--all white marble-- little angels--''From her heart- broken aunt''? |
12639 | No matter, it can be easily repaired-- crack? |
12639 | No, he did n''t want spring water, which Cookie obsequiously tendered him; he wanted a_ drink_--wouldn''t anybody but a fool nigger know that? |
12639 | Of course-- haven''t we been eating them?" |
12639 | Oh, who''s, who''s with me at Fortune''s call to wander? |
12639 | Oh, who''s, who''s with me for the free life of a rover? |
12639 | Oh, who''s, who''s with me for to sail the broad seas over? |
12639 | Oh, why, why are we not safe at home together? |
12639 | Or perhaps accept a little stingy present of a few? |
12639 | Ours? |
12639 | Outwardly calm, I replied,"Yes, its too bad, but then who ever dreamed that Aunt Jane would go adventuring at her time of life? |
12639 | Rather fancy you had it in your head that we were a band of cutthroats, eh? |
12639 | Shall we ship old Washtubs on the schooner and let him have his fling along with us? |
12639 | Shaw and I can find the cave quite on our own, ca n''t we, Shaw?" |
12639 | Sho''now, how yo''got de heart to stick de knife in him, Mistah Tubbs?" |
12639 | Should I pretend to have accidentally discovered the grave, lead the party to it, and then-- again accidentally-- discover the tunnel? |
12639 | Skirts is thicker''n herring in every port, ai n''t they?" |
12639 | Somewhere close at hand was the mouth of the cave-- but where? |
12639 | Speaking of Crusoe, where was he? |
12639 | The only question is, is n''t it indicated too clearly? |
12639 | The point is, can you indicate with any degree of exactness the whereabouts of the chest? |
12639 | Then how had Crusoe got away, Crusoe, who feared the waves so, and would bark at them and then turn tail and run? |
12639 | There was n''t any liquor, so what was the good of making an adjective row? |
12639 | Through chance-- by following some authentic clue? |
12639 | Tubbs?" |
12639 | Tubbs?" |
12639 | Virginia, why could n''t you love him?" |
12639 | Was he a bad shot and ashamed of it? |
12639 | Was it another pirate? |
12639 | Was it merely my being so distrait, or was it quite another reason, that led him to open up so suddenly about his Kentish home? |
12639 | Was one of these the_ Rufus Smith_, and would I reach her-- or him-- before the thin gray feather became a thick black plume? |
12639 | We''ll stand by old Shaw, wo n''t we, Magnus?" |
12639 | Well, that cave would n''t be a pleasant place to stay in, would it? |
12639 | Well, when I meets a little skirt that takes my eyes there ai n''t no harm in lettin''her know it, is there? |
12639 | Well, why else was the cabin cleared out so carefully-- no clothes left about or anything?" |
12639 | Were they still waiting there unclaimed? |
12639 | What abominable nonsense I had been talking-- was there a miasma about that old grave that affected one? |
12639 | What do you want aboard my ship?" |
12639 | What had befallen him? |
12639 | What had he to do, the writer of this journal, what had he to do with the_ Bonny Lass_? |
12639 | What happened to the writer of the diary on that last trip to the cave? |
12639 | What if the island had its wild creatures after all? |
12639 | What ironic stroke of fate had cut him down in the very moment of his triumph? |
12639 | What possible errand could bring a steamer to this remote, unvisited, all but forgotten little island? |
12639 | What right you got to be asleep at the switch?" |
12639 | What though swift death is the rover''s lot? |
12639 | What was the matter?" |
12639 | What was this he was saying? |
12639 | What will she do if she meets a cannibal and he tries to eat her?" |
12639 | What would he say if he ever discovered that he might have brought away a harvest of gold instead of copra from the island? |
12639 | Whatever you know, you''ll come through with it and come quick, or it''ll be the worse for your hide, see?" |
12639 | Where did it go? |
12639 | Where was the bottle or two that had been rooted out last night from the medical stores? |
12639 | Which o''them guys has the line on the stuff, Magnus?" |
12639 | Who knew-- and, ah, me, who cared? |
12639 | Who knows but that he, too, was bent on treasure- seeking? |
12639 | Why did n''t the captain sail right up to the island as she had expected and put us ashore? |
12639 | Why had Captain Magnus been at pains to invent a lie about so trivial a matter? |
12639 | Why had n''t they sent the adjective nigger back for more? |
12639 | Why had they, with incredible lack of forethought, brought along nothing but their pocket flasks? |
12639 | Why not surprise them in the cave, and make them stay there? |
12639 | Why should the frequent and natural phenomena of tears produce such panic in the male breast? |
12639 | Why was I lured away to wander about the world with perfect strangers? |
12639 | Why? |
12639 | Would he do so-- on my bare word? |
12639 | Would he of dug it up from one place jest to bury it in another? |
12639 | Would it be riven quite in twain? |
12639 | Would it have bendable j''ints, now, same as you and me?" |
12639 | Would you mind putting up a little headstone-- it need n''t cost much-- in the family plot, with just''Virginia''on it? |
12639 | _ Aunt Jane_: You thoughtless child, where have you been? |
12639 | _ What will Aunt Jane do_? |
12639 | _ What''s his game_? |
12639 | because they had lived on an island, had n''t they? |
12639 | cackled Mr. Tubbs hysterically,"you boys will have your little joke, eh? |
12639 | he exclaimed sympathetically,"not hurt, are you? |
21489 | A document? |
21489 | A voyage? |
21489 | Alone? |
21489 | Already? |
21489 | And Mr Herbert? |
21489 | And before hunting them mercilessly, you would not wait until they had committed some fresh act of hostility against us? |
21489 | And besides,thought Pencroft,"why should it be impossible to refloat the brig? |
21489 | And can you guess, Pencroft,asked the reporter,"how it happened, or what can have occasioned the explosion?" |
21489 | And have they not been seen again? |
21489 | And how many months would be required to build a vessel of from 250 to 300 tons? |
21489 | And our vessel? |
21489 | And who has struck the blow? |
21489 | And who put the torpedo there? |
21489 | And why, my dear Spilett,answered Cyrus Harding,"should it not follow the road naturally traced out for it?" |
21489 | And yet, if it had been necessary to operate,said Harding one day to him,"you would not have hesitated?" |
21489 | And you, Ayrton? |
21489 | Are the guns ready? |
21489 | Are they numerous? 21489 Are you comfortable, Herbert?" |
21489 | Are you ready? |
21489 | But Ayrton--answered the engineer, hesitating,"you will risk your life--""Why not, sir?" |
21489 | But Mr Spilett and Neb? |
21489 | But Neb? |
21489 | But Neb? |
21489 | But by hauling her up on the sand, to the foot of the Chimneys? |
21489 | But can nothing be done? |
21489 | But do you know,returned Pencroft,"that it will take at least five or six months to build a vessel of from thirty to forty tons?" |
21489 | But do you-- do you know who I am? |
21489 | But how was it we did not see the_ Bonadventure_ pass in sight of the island? |
21489 | But if an eruption of Mount Franklin occurred,asked Spilett,"would there not be some danger to Lincoln Island?" |
21489 | But if any one seizes it in our absence? |
21489 | But if, uneasy at our absence, he would venture to come? |
21489 | But is he equal to five? |
21489 | But of what is he dying? |
21489 | But suppose she does come there? |
21489 | But suppose she had run against this piece of iron? |
21489 | But the heart? |
21489 | But the willow bark? |
21489 | But then, Captain Harding,asked Herbert,"why does Lincoln Island appear to escape the common law?" |
21489 | But what are we going to do with all this? |
21489 | But what did the captain say? |
21489 | But what has happened? |
21489 | But who do you think it is? |
21489 | But why, if you please, captain,asked Pencroft, knitting his brows,"why should our hemisphere, as you say, be so badly divided? |
21489 | But with what weapon? |
21489 | But, Captain Harding,he added,"since I was imprisoned in that cavern, how is it that I find myself in the corral?" |
21489 | But, Pencroft,asked Ayrton,"how do you intend to make this voyage?" |
21489 | But,said Herbert,"perhaps some accident had happened to the telegraphic apparatus, so that it works no longer?" |
21489 | Can it be the_ Duncan_? |
21489 | Can the cannon support the shock of the pyroxile? |
21489 | Did you doubt it? |
21489 | Do not you feel a certain vibration of the soil? |
21489 | Do not you think, Cyrus, that the violence of the eruption has somewhat lessened? 21489 Do you hope, then, Pencroft, that the villains have spared him?" |
21489 | Do you know that the brig is a mile and a quarter from the shore? |
21489 | Do you think that is useful? |
21489 | Do you think they would risk themselves in a boat of such small tonnage? |
21489 | Does that astonish you, my boy? |
21489 | For what, my friend? |
21489 | Have we any chance of escape, captain? |
21489 | Have we been deceived by an illusion? |
21489 | Have you formed any plan, Cyrus? |
21489 | He lives,said he;"but he must be carried--""To Granite House? |
21489 | Herbert,said the sailor,"you will never abandon Lincoln Island?" |
21489 | How could you be aware of the existence of Lincoln Island? |
21489 | How is it that the convicts are lying yonder dead, in the middle of the enclosure? |
21489 | How long will it be, my dear Spilett, before you think Herbert may be carried to Granite House? |
21489 | How so, my dear Cyrus? |
21489 | I do,answered Cyrus Harding,"and also that of this wonderful submarine vessel--""The_ Nautilus_?" |
21489 | I have your promise, gentlemen? |
21489 | In that case,replied Pencroft, folding his arms and stamping his foot,"what''s the use of working any longer on the vessel?" |
21489 | In the house? |
21489 | Is it possible that he can have lived at the bottom of the sea? 21489 Is n''t what they have done already enough?" |
21489 | Is she coming here? |
21489 | Is that your opinion, Pencroft? |
21489 | Is the fracture recent? |
21489 | Is there really no way of warning him? |
21489 | It is there, then? |
21489 | Master,asked Neb, a few days later,"do you think all this could have happened if Captain Nemo had been still alive?" |
21489 | My companions and myself? |
21489 | My friends,resumed Harding,"you remember that before she foundered the brig rose on the summit of a regular water- spout?" |
21489 | Neb, perhaps? |
21489 | Nevertheless,continued the reporter,"would not the greatest misfortune which could happen to us be an earthquake which would overturn the island? |
21489 | No doubt,replied Herbert;"but what can two rifles do against the brig''s guns?" |
21489 | Or Ayrton? |
21489 | Pencroft,said the engineer,"you have always shown much deference to my advice; will you, in this matter, yield to me?" |
21489 | Shall we leave the cart in the wood? |
21489 | Shall we light a fire, so as to signal our presence, on the coast? |
21489 | Shall we stay at the corral? |
21489 | That? |
21489 | The Frenchman who was cast on board my vessel by chance sixteen years since? |
21489 | The convicts discovered her in her little harbour only eight days ago, they put to sea in her, and--"And? |
21489 | Then can the convicts have been on board? |
21489 | Then the volcano is not totally extinct? |
21489 | Then, Pencroft,said Herbert,"would it not be wisest to bring the_ Bonadventure_ off to Granite House?" |
21489 | Then, how did it happen? |
21489 | To return, Pencroft? |
21489 | Was it the devil who rang it? |
21489 | We have neither Peruvian bark, nor sulphate of quinine? |
21489 | Well, captain,exclaimed Pencroft, whose cheers might have rivalled the reports themselves,"what do you say of our battery? |
21489 | Well, sir? |
21489 | Well, would you like to know what occasioned that water- spout? 21489 Well,"said Pencroft,"suppose this vessel comes and anchors there a few cables- lengths from our island, what shall we do?" |
21489 | Well,said the sailor,"what ought to be done with regard to those six villains who are roaming about the island? |
21489 | Well? |
21489 | What about those six convicts who disembarked on the right bank of the Mercy? |
21489 | What are you doing here? |
21489 | What are you doing here? |
21489 | What do you mean? |
21489 | What do you say now? |
21489 | What does that mean? |
21489 | What is it? |
21489 | What is that? |
21489 | What is the matter, Pencroft? |
21489 | What is to be done? |
21489 | What o''clock is it? |
21489 | What shall we do when night comes on? |
21489 | What would be the use of that, Pencroft? |
21489 | What''s the matter? |
21489 | What, it was not you? |
21489 | Where am I? |
21489 | Who came here the last time? |
21489 | Who knows? |
21489 | Who knows? |
21489 | Who? |
21489 | Who? |
21489 | Why do you not think so? |
21489 | Why have they not done so? |
21489 | Why not,observed Neb,"if there are rocks in the channel?" |
21489 | Why, captain,said Pencroft,"you do n''t suppose that the_ Speedy_ simply foundered like a ship which has struck on a rock?" |
21489 | Will you go to the ship in the boat? |
21489 | Would you not wish, captain, that Ayrton and I should remain here? |
21489 | You have some last wish to transmit,said the engineer with emotion,"some souvenir to send to those friends you have left in the mountains of India?" |
21489 | You know the name I formerly bore, sir? |
21489 | A few moments of silence ensued; then the captain demanded--"What think you of my life, gentlemen?" |
21489 | All these questions presented themselves simultaneously to the minds of the colonists, but how could they be answered? |
21489 | And now, did the colonists possess an efficacious agent to act against the inflammation which might occur? |
21489 | And there, in the bright moonlight, what did they see? |
21489 | And what had the colonists of Lincoln Island to reply to the pirates''guns? |
21489 | And what would become of him without his vessel?" |
21489 | And who knows but that they had conceived the impossible hope of bringing back Ayrton to themselves? |
21489 | And, besides, in what situation were the inhabitants of the corral themselves? |
21489 | But Cyrus Harding, after some moments''thought, replied in the calm tone which was usual to him--"What we shall do, my friends? |
21489 | But after that? |
21489 | But could he be sure that this was all that was to be said about this enigma, and that he should never arrive at a solution? |
21489 | But do you not think that the best thing to be done now is to openly give chase to these wretches?" |
21489 | But how had he been able to penetrate during the night into Granite House? |
21489 | But how happened it that Cyrus Harding had recognised Captain Nemo? |
21489 | But how was this information to be obtained? |
21489 | But how? |
21489 | But might not a time come when all their science would be at fault? |
21489 | But to what nation did she belong? |
21489 | But was flight still possible? |
21489 | But was resistance and, in the last place, victory possible? |
21489 | But we could not prevent it, could we? |
21489 | But what can I do? |
21489 | But what had been the incidents of this terrible war? |
21489 | But what mischief had the ball committed in its passage? |
21489 | But what was he to do there? |
21489 | But what was it to be? |
21489 | But why was that flag hoisted at the brig''s peak? |
21489 | But why was this ship coming there? |
21489 | But would she pass on, or would she put into port? |
21489 | But would the subterranean fires provoke any violent eruption? |
21489 | By what means could inflammation be prevented? |
21489 | Can he leave the island if he likes? |
21489 | Could he be certain that some conjuncture would not occur which would bring the mysterious personage on the scene? |
21489 | Could they go to the corral in this dark night? |
21489 | Cyrus Harding understood what was passing in Ayrton''s mind, and going to him--"And you, Ayrton,"he asked,"what will you do?" |
21489 | Did he come here voluntarily? |
21489 | Did not the penitent yet feel himself pardoned, either in his own eyes or in the eyes of others? |
21489 | Did not twelve years''solitude on a desert island appear to him a sufficient expiation? |
21489 | Did she scour the Pacific, competing with the Malay proas which still infest it? |
21489 | Did the cavern which the settlers were now exploring extend to the centre of the island? |
21489 | Did there exist in the as yet unexplored parts some accomplice ready to enter into communication with them? |
21489 | Do you still doubt his honesty?" |
21489 | During the night the ship might disappear and leave for ever, and, this ship gone, would another ever return to the waters of Lincoln Island? |
21489 | For what had she come to look at the shores of Lincoln Island? |
21489 | From whence, then, came this prostration? |
21489 | Had Neb any means by which to warn his master? |
21489 | Had he been able to swim to shore? |
21489 | Had he in his turn succumbed? |
21489 | Had he resisted, and been overcome in the struggle? |
21489 | Had his design really been to blow up the brig, as Bob Harvey had thought? |
21489 | Had she come to find on the coast a sheltered port for the winter months? |
21489 | Had the engineer, then, been right in his presentiments? |
21489 | Had the inhabitants fled into the interior? |
21489 | Had the unhappy man been dragged away by his former accomplices? |
21489 | Had they formerly invaded it, so that certain unaccountable peculiarities might be explained in this way? |
21489 | Had this meteor any relation to the phenomena going on in the bowels of the earth? |
21489 | Had this mysterious being, whatever he was, whose existence could not be denied, abandoned the island? |
21489 | Harding went to the apparatus, and sent this question to the corral:--"What do you want?" |
21489 | Have the convicts appeared in the neighbourhood? |
21489 | How could they then prevent the pirates from landing? |
21489 | How had it happened? |
21489 | How many of their friends must have fallen in the struggle? |
21489 | How much blood had it not cost? |
21489 | How prevent the devastations with which the convicts threatened the plateau? |
21489 | If he is a simple castaway, why should he conceal himself? |
21489 | If they themselves were killed, what would become of Harding, Neb, and Herbert? |
21489 | Is he here still? |
21489 | Is it he who is in secret communication with us by the well in Granite House, and has he thus a knowledge of all our plans? |
21489 | Let''s see: in these seas, what do we generally meet with? |
21489 | Look here, captain, to speak candidly, do you mean to say that there is anything marvellous in the occurrence?" |
21489 | Might his life, if not saved, be prolonged for some days? |
21489 | Must they then plunge beneath the water and seek there for some submarine cavern? |
21489 | Now, what stiptics, what antiphlogistics ought to be employed? |
21489 | Now, what was the use of these two manoeuvres, unless the vessel had been employed in some expedition? |
21489 | Ought they not to fly to the help of Ayrton and Pencroft? |
21489 | She was nearer, but in what direction was she sailing? |
21489 | That a vessel should appear in sight off the rock? |
21489 | The old man''s breast swelled with emotion, and raising his hand to heaven--"Was I wrong, or in the right?" |
21489 | The question, then, is, ought we to respect the_ incognito_ of this generous being, or ought we to do everything to find him out? |
21489 | Then Ayrton, approaching the engineer, said simply,"Where should this coffer be deposited?" |
21489 | Then in a calmer tone,"Do you know, Captain Harding,"said he,"what the ball is which I have rammed into my gun?" |
21489 | Then, falling back amid the pillows of the divan--"After all, what matters now?" |
21489 | Then--""Well, Captain Harding?" |
21489 | To shut themselves up in Granite House, to be besieged there, to remain there for weeks, for months even, since they had an abundance of provisions? |
21489 | Under these circumstances was it possible for them to retain even the shadow of a hope? |
21489 | Was Ayrton no longer at the corral, or if he was still there, had he no longer control over his movements? |
21489 | Was it Ayrton? |
21489 | Was it he who threw Top out of the lake, and killed the dugong? |
21489 | Was it he who threw us that bottle, when the vessel made her first cruise? |
21489 | Was it impossible to place the mattress on which Herbert was lying in it, and to advance with so much care than any jolt should be avoided? |
21489 | Was it not a direct menace against the work which he and his companions had till now conducted so successfully? |
21489 | Was it not their interest in the situation in which they found themselves to begin a new life? |
21489 | Was it possible to render any aid to the dying man? |
21489 | Was it to them an unknown island, ready to become a magazine for stolen cargoes? |
21489 | Was not his country that where his master was? |
21489 | Was the brig about to penetrate far into the bay? |
21489 | Was the islet invaded? |
21489 | Was the settler''s honest domain destined to be transformed into an infamous refuge-- the headquarters of the piracy of the Pacific? |
21489 | Was there any connection between the commotion of the atmosphere and that of the interior of the earth? |
21489 | Was this a pirate vessel? |
21489 | Were the convicts in the corral when Pencroft and the reporter made their reconnaissance? |
21489 | Were these the first blows aimed by adverse fortune at the colonists? |
21489 | Were they still there, or had one of their number just gone out? |
21489 | Were they to find him struck down by the hands of those of whom he was formerly the leader? |
21489 | What can they do against these rocks? |
21489 | What could it now avail to sow, to reap, to hunt, to increase the stores of Granite House? |
21489 | What do you think of it, now?" |
21489 | What do you think, Ayrton?" |
21489 | What do you think?" |
21489 | What had been his object? |
21489 | What had happened? |
21489 | What important organs had been reached? |
21489 | What is your opinion on the matter?" |
21489 | What pen could describe the marvellous horror of this scene-- what pencil could depict it? |
21489 | What was he to do? |
21489 | What was that shot fired for? |
21489 | What was the thickness of this wall? |
21489 | What was their sole remaining chance? |
21489 | What were they to do? |
21489 | What''s a ball through the chest? |
21489 | When once in the bay, would she anchor there? |
21489 | Whence did he come? |
21489 | Where, then, did he seek that liberty denied him upon the inhabited earth? |
21489 | Whilst the engineer thought, his eyes fell on Top, who, going backwards and forwards, seemed to say--"Am not I here?" |
21489 | Who can say that they may not take a new course? |
21489 | Who could foresee what the future would then have in store for the colonists? |
21489 | Who could have believed it possible?" |
21489 | Who could tell that it might not prove some day their only refuge? |
21489 | Who could tell what the future might have in reserve? |
21489 | Who had killed the convicts? |
21489 | Who knows if it is not already too late?" |
21489 | Who then can have betrayed my secret?" |
21489 | Why had the latter so suddenly risen on hearing this name uttered, a name which he had believed known to none? |
21489 | Why was Herbert so much worse? |
21489 | Will he remain any longer?" |
21489 | Will it not then be best to build a ship which, if necessary, could take us either to the Polynesian Archipelago or to New Zealand? |
21489 | Without that how are we to know to what distance we can send one of those pretty shot with which we are provided?" |
21489 | Would he live until the next day, until that third attack which must infallibly carry him off? |
21489 | Would it not be best to let Cyrus Harding judge of what he ought to do, and to warn him, at least, of the danger which threatened him? |
21489 | Would she not content herself with only surveying the coast, and stand out to sea again without landing her crew? |
21489 | Would the island hold together till then? |
21489 | Would the removal prove fatal to him by causing some internal injury? |
21489 | Would they be right in the future? |
21489 | Would they not, on the contrary, by employing the cart leave every arm free? |
21489 | You desire to leave it?" |
21489 | ca n''t we carry him to Granite House?" |
21489 | cried Pencroft, with a shout of laughter;"and you''ll undertake the job, no doubt?" |
21489 | cried the engineer,"you are not wounded?" |
21489 | exclaimed Pencroft,"who in the world can he be? |
21489 | he cried,"you?" |
21489 | how many inhabitants could it support? |
21489 | said Pencroft,"are we not going back to work? |
21489 | where to-- to Tabor Island?" |
21489 | who knows?" |
21489 | without counting--""Who?" |
21489 | you suppose that Ayrton, finding his old companions, forgetting all that he owes us--""Who knows?" |
6897 | ''But who''he asked,''was to be the ambassador from so stupendous a Power to these barbarous states? 6897 ''Do you think then that we are in danger?'' |
6897 | ''Has my husband caught any fish, do you know, Jackson?'' 6897 ''How can I tell?'' |
6897 | ''Not there?'' 6897 ''Why so, my dear?'' |
6897 | A Christian,said I,"what is that?" |
6897 | Am I not blind-- how can I teach you? |
6897 | And how could it be otherwise? 6897 And my chest, and my seal?" |
6897 | And now, I say, where do you hold out? 6897 And what is grateful?" |
6897 | And what is that? |
6897 | And when do you think of leaving this island? |
6897 | And you say that God will give us all that we ask for in our prayers? |
6897 | And your father? |
6897 | Are these all the birds that you have for food? |
6897 | Are you much hurt, Frank Henniker? |
6897 | Are you quite well? |
6897 | Are you there, Frank? |
6897 | Are you? 6897 Blind, what is blind?" |
6897 | Bring me some more water, do you hear? |
6897 | But are not you always? |
6897 | But are we only to think of ourselves in this world, and not of others? |
6897 | But did they never come into collision with the wild natives of the country? |
6897 | But do you mean to say that you really like to drink that stuff? |
6897 | But how can we do that, it is so thick and heavy? |
6897 | But what are we to do with the potatoes? |
6897 | But who is God? 6897 But who was Jesus Christ?" |
6897 | But why did he so? |
6897 | But will it never be understood then by anybody? |
6897 | But wo n''t it make it cold at night? |
6897 | But,said I,"this round glass-- what is that for?" |
6897 | Ca n''t you see me? |
6897 | Can you eat any dinner? 6897 Charity and mercy,"said I,"what are they? |
6897 | Die? |
6897 | Do I like to drink it? 6897 Do they still hold possession of it?" |
6897 | Do you feel easier? |
6897 | Do you know if they left anything behind them, Frank? |
6897 | Do you think you could get to the cabin, if I helped you? |
6897 | Do you think, then, that God prevented our going with them on purpose that we might not share their fate? |
6897 | Do you think, then, that we shall starve? |
6897 | Do you understand it yourself? |
6897 | Do you want anything else? |
6897 | Do you want anything? |
6897 | Does he know, Frank? |
6897 | Eat? 6897 Frank Henniker, did you speak?" |
6897 | Frank Henniker, do you know that rock? |
6897 | Had I not better run home and get arms? |
6897 | Has England then completely lost the country she colonised? |
6897 | Has God abandoned us? |
6897 | Have you brought any with you? |
6897 | Have you called long? |
6897 | Have you never been able to call your own mother to your memory? |
6897 | Have you no light at hand? |
6897 | Have you no wish then, to leave this island? |
6897 | Have you used all the potatoes you brought up? |
6897 | He was a good man, was he not? |
6897 | Here,said I,"what is this?" |
6897 | How are you this morning? |
6897 | How could he be equal with God, if, as you said yesterday, God sent him down to be killed? |
6897 | How did he die? |
6897 | How did he die? |
6897 | How is it possible? |
6897 | How long have you been on this island? |
6897 | How shall we manage it? |
6897 | How? |
6897 | I brought all this earth from there, and there is plenty of it; but what is the good of planting them? |
6897 | I do not like interrupting you,I here observed,"but I certainly should like to know what is meant by the word lovers?" |
6897 | I know that,replied he;"but what do I care now?" |
6897 | I know what children are, as Jackson represented to me that I was the child of my father and mother, but what makes children, parish children? |
6897 | I say, boy, have you a good stock of them dried chickens of yours? |
6897 | I suppose,I here observed,"that the people who lived there, were deeply impressed with their good fortune in finding such an asylum?" |
6897 | I want to know the whole story of how we came to this island, who my father and mother were, and why you said that you hated me and my name? |
6897 | If you take all the provision, of course you will take the lad with you? |
6897 | Is she alive? |
6897 | Is she sending a boat, boy? |
6897 | Is that all you have gained by reading your Bible? |
6897 | Is that you, Frank? |
6897 | Is there anything else? |
6897 | Is there no way? |
6897 | Is there, my hearty,--where? |
6897 | It must be alive,thought I;"is it a fish or a bird?" |
6897 | Jackson,said I, kneeling down by him,"are you much hurt?" |
6897 | Let me feel them? |
6897 | Lucky for me, do you mean, Frank? |
6897 | No one can drink this-- what can it be? |
6897 | No!--yes!--can it be possible? 6897 Now what shall I bring in?" |
6897 | Now, what have you brought this time? |
6897 | Now, what is this? |
6897 | Of course I do; why should I not be? |
6897 | Perhaps not,replied Jackson;"his foot may have slipped, who knows? |
6897 | Shall I read to you? |
6897 | Shall I take Nero with me? |
6897 | Shall I wake them? |
6897 | Shall this go in? |
6897 | Shall we have the mizen? |
6897 | Then why have you not been kind to me? 6897 Then you killed him for love of his wife, and hate of himself?" |
6897 | Then you will be punished when you die, will you not? |
6897 | There''s the shovel,said I,"and the boat''s sail-- must I bring them down?" |
6897 | To what republic do you allude? |
6897 | Well, but we can get more, ca n''t we? |
6897 | Were the immediate results of so large an addition to geographical knowledge, as beneficial to the entire human race as they ought to have been? |
6897 | Were you born without a mother? |
6897 | What are brushes and combs and scissors? |
6897 | What are miracles? |
6897 | What are parish children? |
6897 | What are souls? |
6897 | What can I do? |
6897 | What did I sing to you last night? |
6897 | What did you do? |
6897 | What does he do there? |
6897 | What had become of your mother? |
6897 | What is I thank you? |
6897 | What is a Bible, and what is a Prayer- book? |
6897 | What is a parish clerk? |
6897 | What is faith? 6897 What is there in it?" |
6897 | What temptations are we not free from here? |
6897 | What then, it has eyes? 6897 What use can we make of that long line which they have left?" |
6897 | What was that? |
6897 | What''s a boat? |
6897 | What''s a lady? |
6897 | What''s a missionary? |
6897 | What''s a mystery? |
6897 | What''s an alphabet? |
6897 | What''s the matter, master? |
6897 | What, the diamonds? |
6897 | What? |
6897 | Where am I? |
6897 | Where are they? |
6897 | Where did you get that linen? |
6897 | Where is South America? |
6897 | Who are you? |
6897 | Who is Nero? |
6897 | Who spoke? |
6897 | Who taught you to read? |
6897 | Who''s there? |
6897 | Who''s there? |
6897 | Who? |
6897 | Why am I to do that, mother? |
6897 | Why did God keep the Jews apart from the Egyptians, and have them thrown in bondage? |
6897 | Why do n''t you keep up with the lady? 6897 Why do n''t you wear some of them?" |
6897 | Why is it called the Lord''s Prayer? |
6897 | Why should he object to receive what he so much stands in need of? |
6897 | Why should you have thought that? |
6897 | Why, did you not say that you were born on the island, boy? |
6897 | Why, do n''t you know that you''re blind, Jackson? |
6897 | Why, where have you been all your life? |
6897 | Why, you did n''t expect a regular hotel when you landed, did you, mate? |
6897 | Will God hear you? 6897 Will you bring me some water for my eyes? |
6897 | Will you come with me? |
6897 | Will you? 6897 Wo n''t you have something to eat?" |
6897 | Wo n''t you tell it to me? |
6897 | Would you rather stay on the island with Nero, than go away without him? |
6897 | Yes,replied I;"but is it not injuries to ourselves? |
6897 | You called me, master? |
6897 | You like songs, do you? 6897 You wo n''t be afraid of the seal,"said I,"will you? |
6897 | ''Had he caught any fish when you were with him?'' |
6897 | ''Shall I leave Jackson with you?'' |
6897 | After a while he recommenced--"Who can ever prove that they were Henniker''s diamonds?" |
6897 | After we had eaten our dinner, she said to me--"How could you contrive to live on this island, if you had no dried birds?" |
6897 | And that no one could prove they were his-- this implied that Jackson had no right to them; indeed how could he have? |
6897 | Are you afraid of him?" |
6897 | Are you going to bed now?" |
6897 | Are your clothes wet?" |
6897 | As I looked at him, and recalled to mind his words,"Am not I an object of pity?" |
6897 | As we sat at our meal, I said,"Dear mother, what are we to do next?" |
6897 | As your father undressed, your mother said,''Does not that belt worry you a great deal, my dear?'' |
6897 | Besides, I have only two lines, and I might lose them both-- then what would become of me? |
6897 | Bob, you fool, why could n''t you leave the animal alone? |
6897 | But I asked myself how was this desirable object to be effected? |
6897 | But where was he? |
6897 | But where? |
6897 | But, I repeat, that we must study the whole of the Bible with faith, and not be continually asking ourselves,''Why was this done?'' |
6897 | But, are we to suppose that, because we, in our foolishness, can not comprehend his reasons, that therefore they must be cavilled at? |
6897 | Can you do that?" |
6897 | Can you explain to me yourself? |
6897 | Can you feel resentment against one in my wretched state? |
6897 | Can you tell me? |
6897 | Can you tell? |
6897 | Come, boy, what have you got for our breakfast? |
6897 | Did I ever prevent you from having water?" |
6897 | Did I make much noise last night?" |
6897 | Did you plant all these flowers and creepers which grow over the cabin?" |
6897 | Do you ever pray to him?" |
6897 | Do you know what for? |
6897 | Do you not understand in what spirit the Bible should be read?" |
6897 | Do you recollect?" |
6897 | Do you think that you could walk to your bed- place?" |
6897 | Do you understand how it is that that plant keeps alive-- grows every year-- every year throws out a large blue flower? |
6897 | Do you understand me, Frank?" |
6897 | Do you understand me? |
6897 | Do you understand me?" |
6897 | Do you understand?" |
6897 | Does he know that we are starving?" |
6897 | Does it mind the wind?" |
6897 | Does not the commandment say,''Thou shalt not kill?''" |
6897 | Had not the murder been already avenged? |
6897 | Have you a hut or a cave to live in?" |
6897 | Have you ever tried to sing?" |
6897 | Have you put the belt on?" |
6897 | He paused, as if he did not know my voice, and then said:"But I ca n''t see anything; how''s this?" |
6897 | How am I to plant them?" |
6897 | How big did you say that the cask was?" |
6897 | How could I have learnt deceit? |
6897 | How is it that the bird is covered with feathers, and has the power to fly? |
6897 | How is it that the inside of an egg is changed into a bird? |
6897 | How old do you think you are now?" |
6897 | How?" |
6897 | I ask you again, am I not an object of pity and commiseration?" |
6897 | I asked my companion,"or has He forgotten that two of his creatures are in the deepest peril of their lives, from which He alone can save them?" |
6897 | I confessed that he was, and then I asked myself the question, Can you forgive him who was the murderer of your father? |
6897 | I could soon tell it you if it were not for the last question,--why I hated your name? |
6897 | I pushed him for some time without success; but, at last he opened his eyes, and said:"My watch already?" |
6897 | I say, boy, where did you leave your trousers?" |
6897 | I suppose you expect to be very happy if ever you get back to England?" |
6897 | I was about to go up to the cabin for some birds, when another man called out--"I say-- can you get us any water?" |
6897 | I went to him and examined him-- was he asleep, or was he dead? |
6897 | I wonder if they would run up my cabin? |
6897 | In short, I read in darkness; and I may say that I almost knew the Bible by heart without understanding it.--How could I? |
6897 | Is it not nearly daylight?" |
6897 | Is it not so?" |
6897 | Is there anything in the pannikin?" |
6897 | Isolated as I had been, must it not have been innate? |
6897 | It was on the third morning that he said,--"I can talk to you now; what do you want to know?" |
6897 | Looking into the wound, my desire of information induced me to say,"What are these little white cords, which are cut through?" |
6897 | Most truly was the question put by me,"Charity and mercy-- what are they?" |
6897 | Now do you understand?" |
6897 | Now look, Frank; is the next letter to O the shape of this?" |
6897 | Now, John Gough, what do you intend to do?" |
6897 | Now, can you forgive me? |
6897 | Now, do you understand what I want?" |
6897 | On my return, I found Jackson in his bed- place; he heard me come in, and asked me, in a quiet tone, whether I would bring him some water? |
6897 | See the judgment of God-- am I not now precisely in his position, lying battered and crushed as he was? |
6897 | Shall I kill him while he sleeps?" |
6897 | Shall I pray now for both of us?" |
6897 | Shall I wear the belt myself, or shall I put it in the bundle? |
6897 | Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it,''Why hast thou made me thus?'' |
6897 | She examined the cabin and the bed- places, and then said,"Where do you sleep?" |
6897 | Tell me now, yourself, what do you prefer and set most value upon, your belt of diamonds, or the iron kettle?" |
6897 | The one addressed did so, and the man put it into my hands, saying,"Bring us that pail, boy, will you?" |
6897 | The question is, will you give me the price, or will you not? |
6897 | The reader may inquire how it was that I knew the exact time of the arrival of the birds? |
6897 | Then perhaps you''ll tell us how to get something to eat, my hearty?" |
6897 | There he was, apparently a gentlemen of property and consideration; and I, what was I? |
6897 | There they are, do you choose to buy them?" |
6897 | Was he not already punished? |
6897 | Was there no man,''he again asked,''great enough and bold enough to undertake a mission of such vast importance, attended by such terrible risks? |
6897 | Well, what of Captain James, eh?" |
6897 | What can they expect from him in the way of mercy when they have shewn none? |
6897 | What do the Proverbs say? |
6897 | What is your name? |
6897 | What is your name?" |
6897 | What next, O Lord of Heaven?" |
6897 | What then was I to do? |
6897 | What then, shall I tax him with it when he is awake, and then kill him?" |
6897 | What trouble would you take for me, if I were blind now, and not you? |
6897 | What was it that you said just before I forgot everything this morning?" |
6897 | What was it? |
6897 | What was your reason then?" |
6897 | What will you do?" |
6897 | When I had answered the question, I said to her--"I have brought up more of the potatoes, as you call them; what am I to do with them?" |
6897 | When I had told her all, I said--"Now, as they talk of not taking my chest, what shall I do? |
6897 | Where could we be? |
6897 | Where did I come by them? |
6897 | Where is she?" |
6897 | Where now could be the island I, though long so anxious to quit, now was a thousand times more desirous of beholding? |
6897 | Where''s John Gough? |
6897 | Where''s all on''em?" |
6897 | Where''s the captain? |
6897 | Who are you that have guessed that? |
6897 | Who are you? |
6897 | Who left you on shore to get all ready for us?" |
6897 | Who shall I begin with-- with my husband or with myself?" |
6897 | Who would venture to be a messenger of peace and comfort to a cruel and savage nation? |
6897 | Why did you thank God for the seamen having left us here, instead of taking us with them?" |
6897 | Why does he feel so angry at my name? |
6897 | Why should it do so? |
6897 | Will you come again? |
6897 | Will you do this for me?" |
6897 | Will you take Nero with you?" |
6897 | You ca n''t tell why or how or what causes produce these effects-- can you?" |
6897 | You have read the history of Joseph and his brethren?" |
6897 | You know which book I told you was the Prayer- book?" |
6897 | You see me now-- are they not all avenged?" |
6897 | You see, you know that it does do so; but can you tell me what makes it do so?" |
6897 | You understand now?" |
6897 | and has not His vengeance fallen upon me even in this world? |
6897 | and whence comes that beautiful colour? |
6897 | and''God damn''--but who is he?" |
6897 | exclaimed he,"how shall I escape?" |
6897 | in that cask? |
6897 | inquired I; and then after a little thought, I said,"You do n''t mean Nero, mother?" |
6897 | or will you believe that I''m master?" |
6897 | or will you wear it for me, as my mother would have done, if she had been alive?" |
6897 | said one of the men, addressing me,"and how many of you are there here?" |
6897 | very well; and my name?" |
6897 | what birds?" |
6897 | what do you mean?" |
6897 | what is the meaning of Henniker, I wonder? |
6897 | why should the flower always be blue? |
33516 | ''Who are you?'' 33516 A document?" |
33516 | A pipe, then? |
33516 | A steam machine? |
33516 | About what age is he? |
33516 | All the same, captain,said the sailor,"if we ever decide to leave the island, it wo n''t be in a balloon, will it? |
33516 | An important island? |
33516 | An island? |
33516 | And Jup be growling like that? |
33516 | And are they good? |
33516 | And if you are caught in a hurricane? |
33516 | And now that you know us,added Cyrus Harding,"will you give us your hand?" |
33516 | And now, what shall we do with our prize? |
33516 | And shall we eat bread? |
33516 | And the tide was low at the time? |
33516 | And they do n''t happen to do for smoking? |
33516 | And we have lost an opportunity to get back to our country? |
33516 | And what distance is it to the Cape, captain? |
33516 | And what is that? |
33516 | And what is this tree which resembles a little palm? |
33516 | And what shall we make of him, now we''ve got him? |
33516 | And what will they burn instead of coal? |
33516 | And who made this discovery? |
33516 | And why should we have done it? |
33516 | And why? |
33516 | And you are quite certain of having seen this fire? |
33516 | And you have brought him? |
33516 | And you will be satisfied with no other wages than your food? |
33516 | And you, my friend? |
33516 | Are you quite sure that this is a man, or that he has ever been one? |
33516 | At what distance are we from Granite House? |
33516 | At what distance from the sea did you leave this turtle? |
33516 | Because they give fevers? |
33516 | Besides, how do you know that the bottle which enclosed the document may not have taken several years to come from Tabor Island to Lincoln Island? |
33516 | But has Ayrton told the truth? |
33516 | But is n''t there any mark or direction on these instruments, tools, or books, which would tell us something about them? |
33516 | But the boat? |
33516 | But then,observed Pencroft,"why did he entreat the help of his fellow- creatures? |
33516 | But was it not a star? |
33516 | But what are these beasts? |
33516 | But what will they find? |
33516 | But what''s in this chest? |
33516 | But who is it that has played us this cool trick? |
33516 | But who was it? |
33516 | But who? |
33516 | But, at any rate, is the water deep enough? |
33516 | But, captain,asked Herbert,"what leads you to think that the brutishness of the unfortunate man began only a few months back?" |
33516 | But, master,said Neb,"are you serious? |
33516 | But,said Gideon Spilett,"can we hope that he will not escape, if once set at liberty?" |
33516 | Can it be possible that our island is supernatural? |
33516 | Can you guess, captain? |
33516 | Come now, captain,exclaimed Pencroft,"what does that mean? |
33516 | Could she not float in the river? |
33516 | Curious? |
33516 | Do n''t you know that the sea turned it over? |
33516 | Do you by chance happen to think of establishing a telegraph? |
33516 | Do you know what this plant is? |
33516 | Do you think I could have a bullet in my jaw for five or six months without finding it out? 33516 Does not this appear strange to you?" |
33516 | Electric? |
33516 | Five days,cried Neb,"to build a boat?" |
33516 | For how long a time? |
33516 | Have you noticed, Mr. Spilett, how deeply sunk his eyes are? |
33516 | Have you understood how our dog was so strangely thrown up out of the waters of the lake, after his struggle with the dugong? |
33516 | However,resumed Gideon Spilett,"you do not deny that some day the coal will be entirely consumed?" |
33516 | I thought, captain,said Herbert,"that turtles, once placed on their backs, could not regain their feet, especially when they are of a large size?" |
33516 | Is it not rather far? |
33516 | Is it tobacco? |
33516 | Is she not safe at the mouth of the Mercy? |
33516 | Is that all? |
33516 | Is that your opinion, captain? |
33516 | It is, then, the bread- tree? |
33516 | It must then be admitted that the document has already a distant date? |
33516 | It will be you then, Mr. Spilett, who will help me? |
33516 | Living? |
33516 | Living? |
33516 | Might it not have been a long time already on the coast of the island? |
33516 | Nothing will be easier; but is this a really useful thing? |
33516 | Of wood? |
33516 | Our boat? |
33516 | Pardon this rascal? |
33516 | Pencroft,said he,"can you restrain your impatience for one hour only?" |
33516 | Shall we leave him bound? |
33516 | Shall, we go on? |
33516 | Should you be surprised to hear him beginning to speak to us some day? |
33516 | Sir,said he to Harding,"your companions and you, are you English?" |
33516 | Snow at this time? |
33516 | So you think that these people have already quitted the island? |
33516 | So, Pencroft,asked the engineer,"if a ship has been wrecked on these banks, is it not astonishing that there is now no trace of her remaining?" |
33516 | The idea is good,replied the reporter;"but could you climb to the top of those giants?" |
33516 | The name of this creek, my friends? 33516 Then how did it manage?" |
33516 | Then this must be the castaway? |
33516 | Then what conclusion may be drawn? |
33516 | Then why venture there? |
33516 | Then, if I understand you right, captain,said Herbert,"the vessel has left again?" |
33516 | There are whalers in these quarters, then? |
33516 | To- morrow? |
33516 | Valuable? |
33516 | We? |
33516 | Well a cup of coffee, my friend? |
33516 | Well now, and the ladder,cried the sailor;"who can the gentleman have been who sent us that down?" |
33516 | Well, Captain Harding,asked Pencroft,"what do you think of our vessel?" |
33516 | Well, Pencroft,asked Cyrus Harding,"can you not anchor off the Cape?" |
33516 | Well, is not the captain the best engineer in his profession? 33516 Well, where would you put her, Pencroft?" |
33516 | Well, who knows,returned the reporter,"who knows but that we may be much nearer inhabited land than we think?" |
33516 | Well? |
33516 | What are they? |
33516 | What are you thinking of, captain? 33516 What can Top be barking in that way for?" |
33516 | What do you recognise? |
33516 | What do you want to say, Neb? |
33516 | What is it, captain? |
33516 | What is it? |
33516 | What is it? |
33516 | What is it? |
33516 | What is the good? |
33516 | What is the matter, Top? |
33516 | What o''clock is it? |
33516 | What voyage, Pencroft? |
33516 | What will you do then? |
33516 | What would be the use of that? |
33516 | What would you have? |
33516 | What year? |
33516 | What''s in this chest? 33516 What''s the matter now?" |
33516 | What''s the matter,replied the sailor,"a rock?" |
33516 | What''s the matter? |
33516 | What''s the matter? |
33516 | What? |
33516 | What? |
33516 | When you were returning from Tabor Island, Pencroft,continued the engineer,"you said that a fire appeared on Lincoln Island?" |
33516 | When? |
33516 | Where can they have crossed? |
33516 | Where is he going to? |
33516 | Where is he? 33516 Who but the hunter who fired the bullet?" |
33516 | Who is that? |
33516 | Who knows? |
33516 | Who knows? |
33516 | Who was it? 33516 Why not donkeys?" |
33516 | Why so? |
33516 | Why? 33516 Why?" |
33516 | Will it not be better to wait until we have explored it to its mouth? |
33516 | Will you give me your hand? |
33516 | Will you live with us? |
33516 | With this we could go round--"The world? |
33516 | Wolves, jaguars, or apes? |
33516 | Would you not, in that case, Pencroft, attempt the adventure? |
33516 | You also, Herbert? |
33516 | You are going to enter the service of Captain Cyrus Harding? |
33516 | You do n''t mean to say, captain,interrupted Pencroft,"that we burn diamonds in our stoves in the shape of coal?" |
33516 | You have found the castaway? |
33516 | You hope, then, Cyrus, to succeed in reforming the man? |
33516 | You know the value which castaways set on such articles as these, the last remains of a wreck? 33516 You once spoke of an apparatus which would take the place of the long ladders at Granite House, captain,"said he;"wo n''t you make it some day?" |
33516 | You think that he has quitted the island? |
33516 | You think that he will recover his senses? |
33516 | You wish to join the colony? |
33516 | You, Herbert, no doubt? |
33516 | 165"POOR FELLOW,"MURMURED THE ENGINEER 169 THE EXPERIMENT 175"WHO ARE YOU?" |
33516 | All at once, the lad, who had strolled by the river, came running back, and, pointing up the Mercy, exclaimed,--"What is floating there?" |
33516 | And by what?" |
33516 | And do you think now that she could undertake a voyage of some extent?" |
33516 | And how long would it take to do this? |
33516 | And now you will be our companion?" |
33516 | And now, whence had this chest come? |
33516 | And then, no wages, do you hear, my boy? |
33516 | And what did they see? |
33516 | And what''s that?" |
33516 | And who knows what will become of the survivor of us after a long solitude on this island? |
33516 | And who told you that I was not abandoned there-- that I was not condemned to die there?... |
33516 | Are we going to take him as a servant?" |
33516 | At last he folded his arms, then, in a hollow voice,--"Who are you?" |
33516 | At what distance are we from this Tabor Island?" |
33516 | Besides, would he be content to exchange his prison for another? |
33516 | But did it not appear as if Providence had wished to reward them by sending them these productions of human industry? |
33516 | But did there not exist in the island some animal which might supply the place of the horse, ass, or ox? |
33516 | But how were they to be got at? |
33516 | But was he himself convinced of the accuracy of this explanation? |
33516 | But was not his calm only apparent? |
33516 | But where will he touch? |
33516 | But--""But what?" |
33516 | By what right have you dragged me from my islet?... |
33516 | Come now, is there no way of getting at them?" |
33516 | Could there be some being hidden in its profoundest recesses? |
33516 | Did a brighter light burn in the depths of that obscured mind? |
33516 | Did it spread towards other parts of the island? |
33516 | Did n''t you see?" |
33516 | Did some recollection of his former calling return to him? |
33516 | Did these men arrive here voluntarily or involuntarily, by disembarking on the shore or by being wrecked? |
33516 | Did you meet with any accident?" |
33516 | Do you know my past?... |
33516 | Do you know what they are called in Australia and New Zealand?" |
33516 | Do you know who I am-- what I have done-- why I was there-- alone? |
33516 | Do you take our vessel for a wreck and us for porpoises?" |
33516 | Do you think there could be any tie between you and me?... |
33516 | During the first days passed by the stranger in Granite House, had he already given them reason to think that his savage nature was becoming tamed? |
33516 | Elm or fir, both of which abounded in the island? |
33516 | Ha, ha, Mr Spilett, what do you say to an island where shirts grow on the trees?" |
33516 | Had he found in some corner of his brain a fleeting remembrance which recalled him to humanity? |
33516 | Had the animals discovered that they were about to be attacked from another direction? |
33516 | Had this well branches besides the communication with the sea? |
33516 | Have you understood how Top was able to discover your retreat five miles from the cave in which I was lying?" |
33516 | Herbert?" |
33516 | How did he know where chance might one day cast his companions and himself in the event of their leaving their domain? |
33516 | How many of them remain?" |
33516 | However, there was no doubt that there had been a wreck Perhaps this incident was connected with that of the bullet? |
33516 | If free, would he attempt to fly, or would he remain? |
33516 | In fact, this bullet must have issued from a firearm, and who but a human being could have used such a weapon? |
33516 | In short, was the soul returning to the body? |
33516 | Is it air or is it water which is thus driven out? |
33516 | It appeared so, as soon he was heard to express himself in these incoherent sentences:--"Why am I here?... |
33516 | It was certain that the settlers would end by reinstating themselves in their domicile and driving out the intruders, but when and how? |
33516 | Now should they undertake it immediately, and devote this day to it? |
33516 | Now, should they seize them with violence and master them by force? |
33516 | Now, what will happen if a hungry animal swallows one of these baits? |
33516 | Now, who were these men? |
33516 | Perhaps some cave, which it would be advisable to explore, existed there? |
33516 | Perhaps strangers had landed on another part of the island? |
33516 | Perhaps they were still there? |
33516 | Should the island be inhabited after all, and should some one have taken possession of her? |
33516 | Should they be in time to save him? |
33516 | Since it was your intention to live alone, why did you throw into the sea the document which put us on your track?" |
33516 | Spilett?" |
33516 | Spilett?" |
33516 | The bottle must go somewhere, and why not here as well as anywhere else?" |
33516 | The reporter broke off one or two of these stalks and returned to the lad, to whom he said,--"What can this be, Herbert?" |
33516 | Then, passing one moment close to Herbert, he stopped, and in a stifled voice,--"What month?" |
33516 | This led Neb to say,--"Why, friend Pencroft, what more do you expect?" |
33516 | Was he overwhelmed by the presence of men whose fellow he had once been? |
33516 | Was he pining for his former savage life? |
33516 | Was he weary of this return to a civilised mode of existence? |
33516 | Was it not a partial eruption of the volcano, or perhaps some meteor?" |
33516 | Was it remorse that overwhelmed him thus? |
33516 | Was not his sadness only the result of his seclusion? |
33516 | Was the sight of his fellow- creatures insupportable to him? |
33516 | Well, captain-- and you, Mr. Spilett; and you, Herbert; and you, Neb-- aren''t you coming to try our new vessel? |
33516 | Were they near Tabor Island? |
33516 | What did they see? |
33516 | What do you think about it, Cyrus?" |
33516 | What was now happening in their country? |
33516 | What was the matter with him? |
33516 | What was the mystery of his life? |
33516 | What was the result of the War of Secession? |
33516 | What wood should be employed? |
33516 | Where could it be hidden?" |
33516 | Who is he?" |
33516 | Who was it then?" |
33516 | Who was this man? |
33516 | Why did Jup join Top in a sort of common anxiety? |
33516 | Why did he throw that paper into the sea?" |
33516 | Will you allow me to live there with them?" |
33516 | Wo n''t he be pleased? |
33516 | Would not his presence disturb the little colony till then so united? |
33516 | Would the stranger one day speak of it? |
33516 | Your rescue, the case stranded on the sand, Top''s adventure, and lastly this bottle.... Shall we never have the answer to these enigmas?" |
33516 | [ Illustration: HE SAW NOTHING SUSPICIOUS] Why did Top so often run round this opening? |
33516 | [ Illustration: IS IT TOBACCO?] |
33516 | [ Illustration:"WHO ARE YOU?" |
33516 | cried Neb;"but are they good for anything?" |
33516 | cried Pencroft"But what in the world can there be in it?" |
33516 | cried Pencroft,"where is Jup?" |
33516 | he asked,"and what do you claim to be to me?" |
33516 | he asked,"how are you?" |
33516 | he exclaimed;"one word only-- am I free?" |
33516 | how are you going to manage that, captain?" |
33516 | is it--?" |
33516 | murmured the stranger"What is that worth? |
33516 | or rather, to employ a word, which would be exactly applicable to him, was he not becoming tamed, like an animal in company with his master? |
33516 | replied Herbert;"but you are not afraid that it will shut upon us, are you?" |
33516 | said Neb,"these beasts can turn themselves over, then?" |
33516 | said Neb;"but how are we to catch it?" |
33516 | then you admit, Cyrus, that she was swallowed up without leaving any trace?" |
33516 | was n''t it Ayrton who threw that bottle into the sea? |
33516 | would he ever be a convalescent? |
37652 | A dozen? |
37652 | A picnic? |
37652 | A prisoner? 37652 A what? |
37652 | A what? |
37652 | After all, where does it matter, so long as he receives Christian burial? |
37652 | All quiet, I suppose? 37652 All ready, pater?" |
37652 | Alone? |
37652 | And Quexo? |
37652 | And are there fish or marine animals in the bed of the ocean? |
37652 | And how do you feel to- day? |
37652 | And our boat; how shall we be able to leave the island now? |
37652 | And water? |
37652 | And where''s the canoe? 37652 Any luck?" |
37652 | Any need to keep watch to- night, pater? |
37652 | Any sign of the boat? |
37652 | Any signs of the crew? |
37652 | Anyone hurt? |
37652 | Anything wrong? |
37652 | Are n''t you nearly ready? |
37652 | Are they doing anything for''ard? |
37652 | Are you all right, sir? |
37652 | Are you fit for a dash? |
37652 | Are you hurt? |
37652 | Are you making another trip to- day? |
37652 | Are you ready to start? |
37652 | Are you sure you are all right, dad? |
37652 | Armed, of course? |
37652 | Ask him whether we have plenty of sea room-- whether there is any danger of running ashore during the next hour or so? |
37652 | Between whom? |
37652 | But are we going straight to Ahii? |
37652 | But do you expect another crowd of savages? |
37652 | But how are we to get the gear up there-- including the useless lump of animated clay in the shape of myself? |
37652 | But how are you going to stop the wheel? 37652 But how is she behaving?" |
37652 | But what is the weight of the boat? |
37652 | But where? 37652 But, I say, is n''t everything quiet?" |
37652 | But,objected Ellerton,"what''s the use? |
37652 | By the by, do you ever go to Tahiti? |
37652 | By the tunnel? |
37652 | Ca n''t we go back for her? |
37652 | Ca n''t we go on deck? |
37652 | Ca n''t you see what it is? 37652 Coming ashore, boss?" |
37652 | Could n''t the boss bring over the rest of your pals and settle our score with those niggers? |
37652 | Could n''t we smash the door with an axe? |
37652 | Dead? |
37652 | Did you leave the door open? |
37652 | Do n''t you think we could rig up an electric alarm? |
37652 | Do you hear that, Quexo? |
37652 | Do you know its name, sir? |
37652 | Do you know, Ellerton? |
37652 | Do you think she''ll stay there? |
37652 | Do you think that Terence and you can manage by yourselves? |
37652 | Do you think there will be much of a struggle? |
37652 | Dynamite? |
37652 | Fine, is n''t it? |
37652 | Finished it, then, pater? |
37652 | Firearms? |
37652 | Glass-- telescope-- see? |
37652 | Going to start the motor? |
37652 | Had n''t we better get Quexo ashore before it gets dark? |
37652 | Had n''t we better see about baling her out? |
37652 | Has n''t the other? |
37652 | Have you ever tried to make a blaze that way? |
37652 | Hoppy''s bull? |
37652 | How are we going to get the brute on deck? |
37652 | How are we to manage when the hull is brought close in shore? |
37652 | How are you going to manage it? |
37652 | How are you going to throw them? |
37652 | How can we stop them taking to their canoes? |
37652 | How deep is it here? |
37652 | How did you get out of it? |
37652 | How do you propose to do it? |
37652 | How do you propose to get the cutter over the side? |
37652 | How do you think you''ll stop two hundred natives if they set their minds on landing here? 37652 How far are we from Ni Atong?" |
37652 | How far away is the stream-- I think you mentioned there was a stream in the bay? |
37652 | How inclose it? |
37652 | How is Quexo getting on? |
37652 | How is the glass, Captain? |
37652 | How? |
37652 | Hurt? 37652 Hurt?" |
37652 | I bet you never bought her at Hilo? |
37652 | I do n''t want unnecessary violence; besides, if their canoes are destroyed, how can they leave the island? 37652 I hope you do n''t mean to show the white feather, Andy?" |
37652 | I suppose we can not launch one of the canoes, provision her, and make a dash for safety? |
37652 | I was in a hurry to tell you, and what does it matter now that the man has escaped? |
37652 | I wonder what Hoppy is doing? |
37652 | I wonder what''s up? 37652 If we can use the stuff to no better purpose, why not set a time- fuse, and give them another surprise?" |
37652 | Is he asleep, or is he dead? |
37652 | Is it always calm in the Doldrums? |
37652 | Is it because the tide is falling? |
37652 | Is n''t it awful, this gale? |
37652 | Is n''t it superb? |
37652 | Is n''t the heat oppressive? |
37652 | Is n''t there a rift or a hole in the floor where we could bury him? |
37652 | Is she really done for? |
37652 | Is there one left? |
37652 | Left behind? 37652 Make a bomb and roll it over the cliff?" |
37652 | No sign of any canoes? |
37652 | No; has it one? |
37652 | Not a bad shot, eh, boss? |
37652 | Now the question is, what is to be done with the stuff? |
37652 | Now who''s right, sir? |
37652 | Now, Ellerton, how''s your nerve? |
37652 | Pleasant, is n''t it? |
37652 | Quexo missing? 37652 Quite so; but where is the power required to turn the winches to come from? |
37652 | Say, Andy,exclaimed Terence,"is n''t it about time I had a spell ashore?" |
37652 | Say, boss? |
37652 | Say, why? 37652 Say, why?" |
37652 | See, our pursuers are gaining; you are quite sure the motor is thoroughly tuned up, I hope? |
37652 | Seen anything of Blight? |
37652 | Shall I give you a tow? |
37652 | Shall I lend you four or five hands to work the sweeps? |
37652 | Shall we go back for our axes? |
37652 | Shall we let our men loose? |
37652 | Shall we make a bolt for it? 37652 Shall we place some others in the gorge when it is dark?" |
37652 | Strike me; wot''s this? |
37652 | Terence, keep the light steady for a moment, will you? |
37652 | That will, of course, come in handy; but wo n''t we require it on board? |
37652 | The island''s free, I guess? |
37652 | The ox? |
37652 | Then we must arm ourselves? |
37652 | Then we must have passed them? |
37652 | Then what happened? |
37652 | Then what happens to me? |
37652 | Then what is it? 37652 Then what''s to be done?" |
37652 | Then where does it lead to? |
37652 | Then you advise me to get away from the island as soon as I can, and never return to it? |
37652 | Then you do n''t want these fellows to have a set- to? |
37652 | Then, how in the name of goodness, do you expect to get back? |
37652 | They are willing to let the brutes free if you promise that your power''ll keep off the-- the-- you know what I mean, boss, the----"Evil eye?'' |
37652 | They wo n''t injure the boat? |
37652 | Thick, is n''t it? |
37652 | Thinking what, my boy? |
37652 | Thirty feet, do you call it? |
37652 | This is a present, is n''t it, boss? |
37652 | Time? |
37652 | Treasure, eh? 37652 Trouble in store?" |
37652 | We must set watches to- night, I suppose? |
37652 | Well, Quexo,said Andy, on the mulatto''s return,"what did the white man say?" |
37652 | Well, lads,he exclaimed,"what do you think of our allies?" |
37652 | Well, what can I do for you? |
37652 | Well, where is he? 37652 Well? |
37652 | Well? |
37652 | Well? |
37652 | What are they up to, pater? |
37652 | What did you bring ashore? |
37652 | What do they say? |
37652 | What do you propose to do? |
37652 | What do you think of that, sir? |
37652 | What fellow is that? |
37652 | What for? |
37652 | What have we here? |
37652 | What is it? |
37652 | What is the matter with my nerves? |
37652 | What is the value of the treasure? |
37652 | What is to prevent us from digging a shallow trench and conducting the water right to the entrance to the tunnel? |
37652 | What pals?'' |
37652 | What suspicions, sir? |
37652 | What''s her length, do you think? |
37652 | What''s that? |
37652 | What''s that? |
37652 | What''s the use? 37652 What''s to be done now? |
37652 | What''s up, Terence? |
37652 | What''s up? |
37652 | What''s up? |
37652 | What''s your business, might I ask? |
37652 | What''s your game? |
37652 | What''s yours? |
37652 | What, these natives? |
37652 | What? |
37652 | Whatever can be done to save it? |
37652 | When shall we be able to land, do you think? |
37652 | When shall we start? |
37652 | Where shall I make fast to? |
37652 | Where to? |
37652 | Where''s Blight? |
37652 | Where''s his lamp? 37652 Where''s the searchlight?" |
37652 | Why do n''t you want to let that chap Blight know we''ve a motor? |
37652 | Why not get aboard the canoes, and let this''ere packet go? |
37652 | Why not to- day? 37652 Why, sir?" |
37652 | Why? 37652 Why?" |
37652 | Will it hold? |
37652 | Will she do it, I wonder? |
37652 | Wo n''t we be able to have some bathes? |
37652 | Would n''t a sewing machine be better? |
37652 | You ai n''t going to shoot me? |
37652 | You are not going to throw away your life, are you? |
37652 | You are not hurt? |
37652 | You are quite sure you can unshackle the thing easily? |
37652 | You did? |
37652 | You know him? |
37652 | You know the course? 37652 You locked the door in the fence?" |
37652 | You see the second terrace? 37652 You told him?" |
37652 | You understand, Andy? |
37652 | You-- Why, what''s the matter with the lad? |
37652 | Afterwards the winning side secure those who are only stunned and----""And what?" |
37652 | Already several of them, laden with spoil, were descending the cliff- path to their canoes; were the white men to be left unmolested? |
37652 | And after? |
37652 | And how?" |
37652 | And you, Terence, would you not like to return to''Our Lady of the Snows''?" |
37652 | Andy, will you please take Quexo with you and bring up a couple of barricoes of water?" |
37652 | Are you ill?" |
37652 | Are you ready? |
37652 | Are you willing to go, lads? |
37652 | At all events, Mr. McKay and his party were still in a position to offer resistance, but against what odds? |
37652 | But I am awfully anxious to see, so what do you say to another turn at the winch?" |
37652 | But can you lend me a revolver, cap''n? |
37652 | But did n''t we give them a good licking when they pursued us in their canoes? |
37652 | But how about a drink? |
37652 | But how about a light? |
37652 | But now, how about Blight? |
37652 | But what are they up to now?" |
37652 | But what do you say? |
37652 | But what''s that I can see for''ard?" |
37652 | But----""What?" |
37652 | By the by, what was that noise we heard last night?" |
37652 | CHAPTER II AGROUND For a brief instant Ellerton hesitated; ought he to return to his friends or make his way for''ard? |
37652 | CHAPTER XIX THE PRISONER''S ESCAPE"Do you think they will ever return?" |
37652 | Can we get over the reef, do you think, Hoppy?" |
37652 | Can we land?" |
37652 | Could you manage to come down here, do you think?" |
37652 | Dare the pursuer use his revolver and stop this headlong flight? |
37652 | Did you find any signs of the island having been inhabited?" |
37652 | Do you think we might spare Blight a lamb, Andy?" |
37652 | Each sheet is ten feet in height, is it not?" |
37652 | Ellerton, you''re feeling fit, I hope? |
37652 | Everything is ready, I suppose?" |
37652 | Had his comrades searched in vain and had they abandoned their quest and left him to his fate? |
37652 | Had n''t we better unload the boat?" |
37652 | Has anyone any matches?" |
37652 | Has anything gone wrong?" |
37652 | Have you any matches?" |
37652 | Have you anything to say?" |
37652 | How are we to pass a sling round the brute''s body?" |
37652 | How did these get here?" |
37652 | How did you descend?" |
37652 | How far did you fall?" |
37652 | How long had he been in this hideous deathtrap? |
37652 | How''s Terence?" |
37652 | Hullo, Quexo, tired, eh?" |
37652 | I must stay here-- what do you say, lads?" |
37652 | I suppose Captain Perez is steering to the south''ard to try and avoid the main path of the hurricane?" |
37652 | I suppose you do n''t object to being landed there?" |
37652 | I wonder where they keep the fodder?" |
37652 | In the meantime, lads, what do you say to a kind of picnic?" |
37652 | Is Andy still on the beach?" |
37652 | Is that so?" |
37652 | McKay?" |
37652 | Now will you please empty that case of biscuits? |
37652 | One would have thought that your unpleasant experiences in connection with the_ Sea Belle_----""What d''ye mean?" |
37652 | Say, are you traders?" |
37652 | See yon hills?" |
37652 | See?" |
37652 | Shall I tell our men to push right in and burn their blessed canoes?" |
37652 | Suppose that rogue has got the upper hand? |
37652 | Terence, there''s a pencil and paper close to your elbow; will you please sketch a plan of a Union Jack?" |
37652 | Terence, will you go back to the house and bring three or four spades? |
37652 | Terence, will you please hand me over that signalling flag from the for''ard port locker?" |
37652 | The rock afforded but a slender hold: either the fabric might become loosened, or his hand might be unable to keep up the strain, and then----? |
37652 | Their allies were being driven back; but where were the white men? |
37652 | Then came the question, how were they going to transport the crippled Mr. McKay to the shore? |
37652 | Then:"What have you fellows been up to?" |
37652 | This was done, but then came the difficulty: how were they to release the animal from the stall and drag it to the hatchway? |
37652 | Understand?" |
37652 | Was it a night, or many days and nights? |
37652 | Were his companions at length overwhelmed by dint of numbers? |
37652 | What chance do you think these fellows will have?" |
37652 | What could be easier? |
37652 | What did it mean? |
37652 | What for? |
37652 | What had happened? |
37652 | What is the interior like?" |
37652 | What lay behind it? |
37652 | What noise, boss?" |
37652 | What secret did it guard so well? |
37652 | What your massa name is?'' |
37652 | What''s that?" |
37652 | What''s your experience of these, Ellerton?" |
37652 | When do you set sail for your own island?" |
37652 | Where are you?" |
37652 | Where''s a machine to be had?" |
37652 | Where''s the wind?" |
37652 | Who fired it?" |
37652 | Why do you ask?" |
37652 | Why do you ask?" |
37652 | Why not come back to Ahii with us, and make those chaps from Teku clear off back to their own island? |
37652 | Why should we chuck away our chance for a wounded nigger?" |
37652 | Why, whatever is the matter with you, Andy? |
37652 | Would it hold? |
37652 | Would it not be well to carry a supply of provisions with us and store them in the cave? |
37652 | Would the natives be content with their success, and re- embark with their booty? |
37652 | You brought the signal flags, I hope?" |
37652 | You do n''t imagine I''m afraid to tackle an unarmed man, do you? |
37652 | You have plenty of ammunition?" |
37652 | You quite understand?" |
37652 | You understand? |
37652 | You understand?" |
37652 | _ Bounty_, for instance, did he not successfully accomplish a voyage of 4000 miles in an open boat in forty- one days? |
37652 | asked Mr. McKay cheerfully; then realising that his son looked ill, he exclaimed:"What have you been doing, Andy?" |
21551 | A Christian,said I,"what is that?" |
21551 | Am I not blind-- how can I teach you? |
21551 | And how could it be otherwise? 21551 And my chest, and my seal?" |
21551 | And now, I say, where do you hold out? 21551 And what is grateful?" |
21551 | And what is that? |
21551 | And when do you think of leaving this island? |
21551 | And you say that God will give us all that we ask for in our prayers? |
21551 | And your father? |
21551 | Are these all the birds that you have for food? |
21551 | Are you much hurt, Frank Henniker? |
21551 | Are you quite well? |
21551 | Are you there, Frank? |
21551 | Are you? 21551 Blind, what is blind?" |
21551 | Bring me some more water, do you hear? |
21551 | But are not you always? |
21551 | But are we only to think of ourselves in this world, and not of others? |
21551 | But did they never come into collision with the wild natives of the country? |
21551 | But do you mean to say that you really like to drink that stuff? |
21551 | But how can we do that, it is so thick and heavy? |
21551 | But what are we to do with the potatoes? |
21551 | But who is God? 21551 But who was Jesus Christ?" |
21551 | But why did he so? |
21551 | But will it never be understood then by anybody? |
21551 | But wo n''t it make it cold at night? |
21551 | But,said I,"this round glass-- what is that for?" |
21551 | Ca n''t you see me? |
21551 | Can you eat any dinner? 21551 Charity and mercy,"said I,"what are they? |
21551 | Die? |
21551 | Do I like to drink it? 21551 Do they still hold possession of it?" |
21551 | Do you feel easier? |
21551 | Do you know if they left anything behind them, Frank? |
21551 | Do you think you could get to the cabin, if I helped you? |
21551 | Do you think, then, that God prevented our going with them on purpose that we might not share their fate? |
21551 | Do you think, then, that we shall starve? |
21551 | Do you understand it yourself? |
21551 | Do you want anything else? |
21551 | Do you want anything? |
21551 | Does He know, Frank? |
21551 | Eat? 21551 Frank Henniker, did you speak?" |
21551 | Frank Henniker, do you know that rock? |
21551 | Had I not better run home and get arms? |
21551 | Has England then completely lost the country she colonised? |
21551 | Has God abandoned us? |
21551 | Have you brought any with you? |
21551 | Have you called long? |
21551 | Have you never been able to call your own mother to your memory? |
21551 | Have you no light at hand? |
21551 | Have you no wish, then, to leave this island? |
21551 | Have you used all the potatoes you brought up? |
21551 | He was a good man, was he not? |
21551 | Here,said I,"what is this?" |
21551 | How are you this morning? |
21551 | How could he be equal with God, if, as you said yesterday, God sent him down to be killed? |
21551 | How did he die? |
21551 | How did he die? |
21551 | How is it possible? |
21551 | How long have you been on this island? |
21551 | How shall we manage it? |
21551 | How? |
21551 | I brought all this earth from there, and there is plenty of it; but what is the good of planting them? |
21551 | I do not like interrupting you,I here observed,"but I certainly should like to know what is meant by the word lovers?" |
21551 | I know that,replied he;"but what do I care now?" |
21551 | I know what children are, as Jackson represented to me that I was the child of my father and mother-- but what makes children parish children? |
21551 | I say, boy, have you a good stock of them dried chickens of yours? |
21551 | I suppose,I here observed,"that the people who lived there were deeply impressed with their good fortune in finding such an asylum?" |
21551 | I want to know the whole story of how we came to this island, who my father and mother were, and why you said that you hated me and my name? |
21551 | If you take all the provision, of course you will take the lad with you? |
21551 | Is she alive? |
21551 | Is she sending a boat, boy? |
21551 | Is that all you have gained by reading your Bible? |
21551 | Is that you, Frank? |
21551 | Is there anything else? |
21551 | Is there no way? |
21551 | Is there, my hearty,--where? |
21551 | It must be alive,thought I;"is it a fish or a bird?" |
21551 | Jackson,said I, kneeling down by him,"are you much hurt?" |
21551 | Lucky for me, do you mean, Frank? |
21551 | No one can drink this-- what can it be? |
21551 | No!--yes!--can it be possible? 21551 Now what shall I bring in?" |
21551 | Now, what have you brought this time? |
21551 | Now, what is this? |
21551 | Of course I do; why should I not be? |
21551 | Perhaps not,replied Jackson;"his foot may have slipped, who knows? |
21551 | Shall I read to you? |
21551 | Shall I take Nero with me? |
21551 | Shall I wake them? |
21551 | Shall this go in? |
21551 | Shall we have the mizen? |
21551 | Then why have you not been kind to me? 21551 Then you killed him for love of his wife, and hate of himself?" |
21551 | Then you will be punished when you die, will you not? |
21551 | There''s the shovel,said I,"and the boat''s sail-- must I bring them down?" |
21551 | To what republic do you allude? |
21551 | Well, but we can get more, ca n''t we? |
21551 | Were the immediate results of so large an addition to geographical knowledge, as beneficial to the entire human race as they ought to have been? |
21551 | Were you born without a mother? |
21551 | What are brushes and combs and scissors? |
21551 | What are miracles? |
21551 | What are parish children? |
21551 | What are souls? |
21551 | What can I do? |
21551 | What did I sing to you last night? |
21551 | What did you do? |
21551 | What does he do there? |
21551 | What does the Bible say-- that not a sparrow falls to the ground without His knowledge; and of how much more worth are you than many sparrows? 21551 What had become of your mother?" |
21551 | What is a Bible, and what is a Prayer- book? |
21551 | What is a parish clerk? |
21551 | What is faith? 21551 What is there in it?" |
21551 | What is, I thank you? |
21551 | What temptations are we not free from here? |
21551 | What then, it has eyes? 21551 What use can we make of that long line which they have left?" |
21551 | What was that? |
21551 | What''s a boat? |
21551 | What''s a lady? |
21551 | What''s a missionary? |
21551 | What''s a mystery? |
21551 | What''s an alphabet? |
21551 | What''s the matter, master? |
21551 | What, the diamonds? |
21551 | What,said he,"and share their fate?" |
21551 | What? |
21551 | Where am I? |
21551 | Where are they? |
21551 | Where did you get that linen? |
21551 | Where is South America? |
21551 | Who are you? |
21551 | Who is Nero? |
21551 | Who spoke? |
21551 | Who taught you to read? |
21551 | Who''s there? |
21551 | Who''s there? |
21551 | Who? |
21551 | Why am I to do that, mother? |
21551 | Why did God keep the Jews apart from the Egyptians, and have them thrown in bondage? |
21551 | Why do n''t you keep up with the lady? 21551 Why do n''t you wear some of them?" |
21551 | Why is it called the Lord''s Prayer? |
21551 | Why should he object to receive what he so much stands in need of? |
21551 | Why should you have thought that? |
21551 | Why, did you not say that you were born on this island, boy? |
21551 | Why, do n''t you know that you''re blind, Jackson? |
21551 | Why, where have you been all your life? |
21551 | Why, you did n''t expect a regular hotel when you landed, did you, mate? |
21551 | Will God hear you? 21551 Will you bring me some water for my eyes? |
21551 | Will you come with me? |
21551 | Will you? 21551 Wo n''t you have something to eat?" |
21551 | Wo n''t you tell it to me? |
21551 | Would you rather stay on the island with Nero, than go away without him? |
21551 | Yes,replied I;"but is it not injuries to ourselves? |
21551 | You called me, master? |
21551 | You like songs, do you? 21551 You wo n''t be afraid of the seal,"said I,"will you? |
21551 | ` But who,''he asked,` was to be the ambassador from so stupendous a Power to these barbarous states? 21551 ` Do you think then that we are in danger?'' |
21551 | ` Has my husband caught any fish, do you know, Jackson?'' 21551 ` How can I tell?'' |
21551 | ` Not there?'' 21551 ` Why so, my dear?'' |
21551 | After a while he recommenced--"Who can ever prove that they were Henniker''s diamonds?" |
21551 | After we had eaten our dinner, she said to me--"How could you contrive to live on this island, if you had no dried birds?" |
21551 | And that no one could prove they were his-- this implied that Jackson had no right to them; indeed how could he have? |
21551 | And whence comes that beautiful colour? |
21551 | Are you afraid of him?" |
21551 | Are you going to bed now?" |
21551 | Are your clothes wet?" |
21551 | As I looked at him, and recalled to mind his words,"Am not I an object of pity?" |
21551 | As we sat at our meal, I said,"Dear mother, what are we to do next?" |
21551 | As your father undressed, your mother said,` Does not that belt worry you a great deal, my dear?'' |
21551 | Besides, I have only two lines, and I might lose them both-- then what would become of me? |
21551 | Bob, you fool, why could n''t you leave the animal alone? |
21551 | But I asked myself how was this desirable object to be effected? |
21551 | But are we to suppose that, because we, in our foolishness, can not comprehend His reasons, that therefore they must be cavilled at? |
21551 | But can you tell me what makes it do so?" |
21551 | But where was he? |
21551 | But where? |
21551 | But, I repeat, that we must study the whole of the Bible with faith, and not be continually asking ourselves,` Why was this done?'' |
21551 | Can you do that?" |
21551 | Can you explain to me yourself? |
21551 | Can you feel resentment against one in my wretched state? |
21551 | Can you tell me? |
21551 | Can you tell? |
21551 | Come, boy, what have you got for our breakfast? |
21551 | Did I ever prevent you from having water?" |
21551 | Did I make much noise last night?" |
21551 | Did you plant all these flowers and creepers which grow over the cabin?" |
21551 | Do you ever pray to Him?" |
21551 | Do you know what for? |
21551 | Do you not say in the Lord''s Prayer,` Our Father which art in heaven?'' |
21551 | Do you now understand in what spirit the Bible should be read?" |
21551 | Do you recollect?" |
21551 | Do you think that you could walk to your bed- place?" |
21551 | Do you understand how it is that that plant keeps alive-- grows every year-- every year throws out a large blue flower? |
21551 | Do you understand me, Frank?" |
21551 | Do you understand me? |
21551 | Do you understand me?" |
21551 | Do you understand?" |
21551 | Does he know that we are starving?" |
21551 | Does it mind the wind?" |
21551 | Does not the commandment say,` Thou shalt not kill?''" |
21551 | Had not the murder been already avenged? |
21551 | Have you a hut or a cave to live in?" |
21551 | Have you ever tried to sing?" |
21551 | Have you put the belt on?" |
21551 | He paused, as if he did not know my voice, and then said:"But I ca n''t see anything; how''s this?" |
21551 | How am I to plant them?" |
21551 | How big did you say that the cask was?" |
21551 | How could I have learnt deceit? |
21551 | How is it that the inside of an egg is changed into bird? |
21551 | How is that the bird is covered with feathers, and has the power to fly? |
21551 | How old do you think you are now?" |
21551 | How?" |
21551 | I ask you again, am I not an object of pity and commiseration?" |
21551 | I asked my companion;"or has He forgotten that two of His creatures are in the deepest peril of their lives, from which He alone can save them?" |
21551 | I confessed that he was, and then I asked myself the question, Can you forgive him who was the murderer of your father? |
21551 | I could soon tell it you, if it were not for the last question,-- why I hated your name? |
21551 | I pushed him for some time without success; but, at last, he opened his eyes, and said:"My watch already?" |
21551 | I say, boy, where did you leave your trousers?" |
21551 | I suppose you expect to be very happy if ever you get back to England?" |
21551 | I was about to go up to the cabin for some birds, when another man called out:--"I say-- can you get us any water?" |
21551 | I went to him and examined him-- was he asleep; or was he dead? |
21551 | I wonder if they would run up my cabin? |
21551 | In short, I read in darkness; and I may say that I almost knew the Bible by heart without understanding it.--How could I? |
21551 | In that cask? |
21551 | Is it not nearly daylight?" |
21551 | Is it not so?" |
21551 | Is there anything in the pannikin?" |
21551 | Isolated as I had been, must it not have been innate? |
21551 | It was on the third morning that he said--"I can talk to you now; what do you want to know?" |
21551 | Looking into the wound, my desire of information induced me to say,"What are these little white cords which are cut through?" |
21551 | Most truly was the question put by me,"Charity and mercy-- what are they?" |
21551 | My little chap? |
21551 | Now do you understand?" |
21551 | Now look, Frank; is the next letter to O the shape of this?" |
21551 | Now, John Gough, what do you intend to do?" |
21551 | Now, can you forgive me? |
21551 | Now, do you understand what I want?" |
21551 | Or will you believe that I am master?" |
21551 | Or will you wear it for me, as my mother would have done, if she had been alive?" |
21551 | See the judgment of God-- am I not now precisely in his position, lying battered and crushed as he was? |
21551 | Shall I kill him while he sleeps?" |
21551 | Shall I pray now for both of us?" |
21551 | Shall I wear the belt myself, or shall I put it in the bundle? |
21551 | Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it,` Why hast thou made me thus?'' |
21551 | She examined the cabin and the bed- places, and then said:"Where do you sleep?" |
21551 | Tell me now, yourself, what do you prefer and set most value upon, your belt of diamonds, or the iron kettle?" |
21551 | The one addressed did so, and the man put it into my hands, saying,"Bring us that pail, boy, will you?" |
21551 | The question is, will you give me the price, or will you not? |
21551 | The reader may inquire how it was that I knew the exact time of the arrival of the birds? |
21551 | Then perhaps you''ll tell us how to get something to eat, my hearty?" |
21551 | There he was, apparently a gentleman of property and consideration; and I, what was I? |
21551 | There they are, do you choose to buy them?" |
21551 | Very well; and my name?" |
21551 | Was he not already punished? |
21551 | Was there no man,''he again asked,` great enough and bold enough to undertake a mission of such vast importance, attended by such terrible risks? |
21551 | Well, what of Captain James, eh?" |
21551 | What birds?" |
21551 | What can they expect from Him in the way of mercy when they have shown none? |
21551 | What do the Proverbs say? |
21551 | What do you mean?" |
21551 | What is the meaning of Henniker, I wonder? |
21551 | What is your name? |
21551 | What is your name?" |
21551 | What next, O Lord of Heaven?" |
21551 | What then was I to do? |
21551 | What then, shall I tax him with it when he is awake, and then kill him?" |
21551 | What trouble would you take for me, if I were blind now and not you? |
21551 | What was it that you said just before I forgot everything this morning?" |
21551 | What was it? |
21551 | What was your reason then?" |
21551 | What will you do?" |
21551 | When I had answered the question, I said to her--"I have brought up more of the potatoes, as you call them; what am I to do with them?" |
21551 | When I had told her all, I said--"Now, as they talk of not taking my chest, what shall I do? |
21551 | Where could we be? |
21551 | Where did I come by them? |
21551 | Where is she?" |
21551 | Where now could be the island I, though long so anxious to quit, now was a thousand times more desirous of beholding? |
21551 | Where''s John Gough? |
21551 | Where''s all on''em?" |
21551 | Where''s the Captain? |
21551 | Who are you that have guessed that? |
21551 | Who are you? |
21551 | Who left you on shore to get all ready for us?" |
21551 | Who shall I begin with-- with my husband or with myself?" |
21551 | Who would venture to be a messenger of peace and comfort to a cruel and savage nation? |
21551 | Why did you thank God for the seamen having left us here, instead of taking us with them?" |
21551 | Why does he feel so angry at my name? |
21551 | Why should it do so? |
21551 | Why should the flower always be blue? |
21551 | Will you come again? |
21551 | Will you do this for me?" |
21551 | Will you take Nero with you?" |
21551 | You ca n''t tell why, or how, or what causes produce these effects-- can you?" |
21551 | You have read the history of Joseph and his brethren?" |
21551 | You know which book I told you was the Prayer- book?" |
21551 | You see me now-- are they not all avenged?" |
21551 | You understand now?" |
21551 | ` Had he caught any fish when you were with him?'' |
21551 | ` Shall I leave Jackson with you?'' |
21551 | and has not his vengeance fallen upon me even in this world? |
21551 | and` God damn''-- but who is he?" |
21551 | exclaimed he,"how shall I escape?" |
21551 | inquired I; and then after a little thought I said,"You do n''t mean Nero, mother?" |
21551 | replied I,"not until the birds come again, and that will not be for these next five moons?" |
21551 | said one of the men, addressing me,"and how many of you are there here?" |
29462 | A sailor''s head tells me that there is a road from here to the reef; is that true? |
29462 | An American girl? |
29462 | And how do you know,cries Peter back to them,"how do you know that we''ve water for ourselves?" |
29462 | And our own, Jasper,says she,"is our own less? |
29462 | And why not? |
29462 | And why, Mister Jacob-- why do you say that? |
29462 | And, reading it, you will ask Edmond to help you? |
29462 | Are there not women to save in this house? |
29462 | Are you hungry, Dolly, lad? |
29462 | Better leave me? 29462 But what-- aren''t you afraid, man?" |
29462 | Captain,says he,"what notions can I have which would n''t be in any sane head? |
29462 | Did you hear that? |
29462 | Do you like the island, do you like living here? |
29462 | Do you see any road, Peter Bligh? |
29462 | Do you see anything, captain? |
29462 | Does Mister Gray say that? |
29462 | Does he fear for the engine? |
29462 | Fog out of your lungs, eh? |
29462 | God be good to me-- saw man ever such a sight? 29462 Halloa, popguns,"cries Peter Bligh, in his Irish way;"what for now would any man be firing popguns at this time of the morning?" |
29462 | Have you took it furnished, or are there neighbours, sir? 29462 Hold your tongue,"says I, in a whisper;"are you afraid of two young women, then?" |
29462 | Hold, hold,shouts he;"is it you, Bob Williams?" |
29462 | If a man told such a thing ashore, who''d believe him? 29462 If she is not unhappy, why have you come here, Monsieur Captain? |
29462 | If you cry out like that, you''ll ruin your beautiful voice,said I;"has n''t any one ever asked you to sing hymns in a choir? |
29462 | Is it fireflies or lanterns? |
29462 | Is it you-- is it you yourself, Mr. Begg? 29462 Is the house struck, or am I dreaming it, doctor? |
29462 | Is there any more up there? |
29462 | It''s to ask after your health, Peter,said I, when we''d listened awhile,"what else should a man be firing after, unless he takes you for a rabbit? |
29462 | Jasper,says she of a sudden,"have you read what I wrote in the book?" |
29462 | Jasper,she asked, with something of a smile,"do you remember when I was married?" |
29462 | Jasper,she said, her hand still on the switch of the lamp,"what miracle brings you to this place?" |
29462 | Let them come, let them come,said I;"how''s the dark to help them? |
29462 | March 3d.--If Jasper Begg should come to me, how would they receive him? 29462 Mean?" |
29462 | Miss Ruth,said I,"how shall one man judge another? |
29462 | Mistress,I said,"the ship''s there-- shall we go or stay?" |
29462 | My God,I said,"what does it mean?" |
29462 | Not so fast, not so fast,cried he;"do you know that this is private land, and you''ve no business ashore here?" |
29462 | Peter,said I, suddenly, for I wished to turn their thoughts away from it,"are you forgetting it''s dinner- time?" |
29462 | Regnarte,I said, upon an impulse,"you have guns in this house?" |
29462 | Return it, sir,says he;"but are n''t you going aboard?" |
29462 | Sleep- time and sun- time, is it fable or truth? 29462 The iron ladder by which the men come in,"I asked of the Italian, suddenly,"where is that, Regnarte?" |
29462 | The ship that came ashore last night, Jasper? |
29462 | They''re sleeping, aye, and what''s the waking to be? 29462 Those devils ashore are shooting the crew,"cried I;"did man ever hear such bloody work? |
29462 | To the devil yourself,said I;"what''s that to do with you, and what may your name happen to be?" |
29462 | Was that a rifle- shot or a stone from the hills? |
29462 | We walking on the sea, the likes of which the parson talks about? |
29462 | What are they saying, Peter-- what do you make of it? |
29462 | What does he mean by sleep- time, lad? |
29462 | What have they done to the ship? |
29462 | What have you seen, Dolly Venn-- be quick, lad, for we ca n''t linger? |
29462 | What is it, Clair- de- Lune? 29462 What kept you from the shelter?" |
29462 | What news of the foot, sir? |
29462 | What next? |
29462 | What place is this, and where is the best parlour? |
29462 | What shall we do, Jasper? |
29462 | Where are the others? |
29462 | Where is your old friend, the Frenchman? |
29462 | Who, in thunder, are you? |
29462 | Why do you compel me to speak? |
29462 | Why not, doctor? |
29462 | Why should n''t a man sleep on Ken''s Island? 29462 Why,"says I,"have n''t we come ashore to see you, my beauty, and does n''t the spectacle reward us? |
29462 | Will you lie in the pool, then? 29462 Yonder,"cried he, in a voice grown deep and husky;"yonder, captain, what do you make of that? |
29462 | You are not angry with me for being here, Jasper? |
29462 | You wo n''t go alone, sir? |
29462 | You''ll be Jasper Begg that sailed the lady''s yacht Manhattan? |
29462 | Your friend has come,Edmond says;"but why am I not to know of it? |
29462 | A year ago-- but what shall it profit to remember a year ago? |
29462 | Ah, were you so blind that you have not known it from the first?" |
29462 | And come,"says I, chaffing him,"are there any girls in this bit of a paradise? |
29462 | And could we hold it against, it might be one, it might be three hundred men? |
29462 | And if this truth was present in my mind, how should it be absent from the minds of the others? |
29462 | And oh?" |
29462 | And the poor people aboard-- what of them now? |
29462 | And what am I going to do upon that, gentlemen? |
29462 | And what now?" |
29462 | And what of little Ruth then? |
29462 | And what port d''you think you''re making for?" |
29462 | And what prevents me-- the voices I have heard on the reef; or is it because I know-- I know? |
29462 | And what sort of a port is Ken''s Island in the sleep- time for any Christian man? |
29462 | And where would you be from, and what would you be wanting here?" |
29462 | And who blames her for that? |
29462 | And who should ask them to accept it without a last supreme attempt, a final assault, which should mend all or end all? |
29462 | And you at my wedding, too-- is it really not more than twelve long months ago?" |
29462 | Are you game for that, Dolly-- are you game, my boy?" |
29462 | Are you going ashore to Ken''s Island or will you swim awhile? |
29462 | Are you sure that the cavern below is empty, or do you still count men in it?" |
29462 | Are you sure that your husband has any part in it-- are you sure he''s as bad as you think him?" |
29462 | Aye, Peter, is n''t that so? |
29462 | Aye, the three in the engine- house, how came I to forget them? |
29462 | Aye, you''ll stand by Mister Jacob, lads, I may tell him that?" |
29462 | But Miss Ruth, who had always been one for the towns and cities and the bright things of life-- what did she think of it? |
29462 | But should we-- could we? |
29462 | But what of Jasper, my friend; what of him? |
29462 | But where to now-- aye, that''s the question; where to?" |
29462 | But why do you ask, Monsieur Captain? |
29462 | But, supposing I can not go away-- what then? |
29462 | Can you get as far, captain?" |
29462 | Can you range them, Dolly, or must you wait? |
29462 | Could they believe such good fortune, those who seemed to have but minutes to live? |
29462 | Czerny ask you here?" |
29462 | Czerny said it because you are her friend? |
29462 | Czerny, then?" |
29462 | Czerny, young lady?" |
29462 | Did man ever hear of such a villainy-- to fire a good ship in her misfortune? |
29462 | Did ye see the hair of him, captain-- did ye see the hair?" |
29462 | Did you ever hear that I was a bit of a strong man, Dolly? |
29462 | Do n''t you know me?" |
29462 | Do n''t you know that she''s his wife, doctor-- his wife?" |
29462 | Do n''t you think as he''d better be getting aboard again?" |
29462 | Do we look like highwaymen or honest fellows? |
29462 | Do you believe, Jasper, that a man can fill his house with gold as this is filled-- this wild house so far from the world-- and fill it honestly? |
29462 | Do you blame a woman''s weakness? |
29462 | Do you hear any sound?" |
29462 | Do you hear me, Seth Barker-- do you hear me?" |
29462 | Do you say there are two of them?" |
29462 | Do you suppose I''m the one to die up here like a rat in a trap? |
29462 | Do you take a plain word or do you not, Mister Begg?" |
29462 | Do you wonder that I laughed at them and treated it as any sane man, not given to fables, would have done? |
29462 | Does anything occur to you?" |
29462 | Does he, I wonder, so think of me? |
29462 | Does that put heart into you, Peter, or does it not? |
29462 | Eh, Dolly, lad,"said I to him,"you could make love every day, could n''t you?" |
29462 | Eh, Peter, are you, too, of Jacob''s mind? |
29462 | For how could we know that the Southern Cross would be at the bottom of the sea, a thousand fathoms down, before the week was run? |
29462 | For how should I know what long days must pass before I was to leave Ken''s Island again? |
29462 | For if Czerny must hold his house against the world, how should he hold it with one door of two open to the sea? |
29462 | For so the shadow was lifted from us that for a little while our eyes could not see the light; and, unbelieving, we asked,"Is this the truth?" |
29462 | For what does a man do when he sees some one in a house and the front door''s slammed in his face? |
29462 | For why should two men let three pass up and raise no alarm when alarm might mean so much? |
29462 | For why should we call false sorrow upon that bright hour? |
29462 | Fortune has strange chances, but who would have named such a chance as this? |
29462 | Grunt? |
29462 | Had it been told to me under any other circumstances, my reply would have been:"Dolly, my lad, since when have you taken to sleep- walking?" |
29462 | He paused for a little while, and then he said quietly:"You would be friends of the Princess''s, no doubt?" |
29462 | He''ll give them food to- day; but how long will they drift like cattle for the rain to beat on? |
29462 | Help me and I''ll tell you-- and oh, Mister Begg, do n''t you see that this gun was put here to cover that very place?" |
29462 | How can I believe it, Jasper? |
29462 | How can you think of coming here-- oh, how can you do it?" |
29462 | How could I, when I knew the folks that were abroad on Ken''s Island? |
29462 | How could he help me? |
29462 | How could they know what anxious ears and itching hands waited for their reply? |
29462 | How does the sleep- time concern me?" |
29462 | How many do you expect to find below? |
29462 | How many more in this place now, Benno Regnarte?" |
29462 | How may a woman go when a hundred watch her every hour? |
29462 | How should a man forget a thing like that?" |
29462 | How will it fare with Captain Nepeen?" |
29462 | I asked her on an impulse;"what part of this queer house does he sling his hammock in?" |
29462 | I asked him;"how are you feeling now?" |
29462 | I could wonder no longer that they called the truce; and yet, knowing why they called it, what was I to do? |
29462 | I cried,"you do n''t mean that Clair- de- Lune? |
29462 | I did not ask him, as others might have asked him,''What has your life been? |
29462 | I did not know the truth; what woman would have guessed it?" |
29462 | I heard that you were starving in the hills; but how could I help-- how could I, Jasper? |
29462 | I never answered little Dolly Venn when he asked me,"Do you think there''s danger, sir?" |
29462 | I thought that I heard a sound in the shadows, and imagining it to be one of the servants, I asked,"Who is there?" |
29462 | I wonder where all the people are? |
29462 | I''m not taking any, lad-- my features is n''t regular, as my poor----""Peter, Peter,"said I, bringing him to,"so it''s top- side to- day? |
29462 | If there are houses there, and stores for the sun- time, who will shut them to this horde of desperadoes? |
29462 | If they can go through with it, why not we-- great men that have the sea''s good health in them? |
29462 | If they would know all about us, what''s to prevent them? |
29462 | Is he devil or man that he refuses them food and drink? |
29462 | Is it Christianity to rob an honest man of his victuals? |
29462 | Is it all real or did I dream it? |
29462 | Is it living men or dead, or do my eyes deceive me?" |
29462 | Is it over, Peter? |
29462 | Is it really Jasper Begg?" |
29462 | Is it sea or shore, a glass in my cabin or what the natives will sell you in the log- cabins over yonder?" |
29462 | Is it the madhouse or the ground? |
29462 | Is it true or false?" |
29462 | Is n''t that a sight to keep a man up? |
29462 | Is the young lady coming aboard, sir? |
29462 | Is the young lady deaf that you want to bawl like a harbour- master? |
29462 | It is the water I am thinking of, captain; what are we going to do for water?" |
29462 | Jasper, what shall we do-- what shall we do next?" |
29462 | Let the fog drift from Ken''s Island, the woods awake, life stir again, and how stood we-- where was our benefit? |
29462 | May- be you find yourself a bit peckish, captain?" |
29462 | Mr. Denton, will you please to tell them that Captain Begg lunches with me-- as soon as possible?" |
29462 | Of whom?" |
29462 | Oh, how can you know, how can you guess the things I fear and dread in this awful place? |
29462 | Presently he said:"Captain, a man does n''t shoot with his foot, does he?" |
29462 | Reader of a plain seaman''s story, can you come with me on such a journey as I and four stout hearts made on that unforgotten day? |
29462 | Rob them of food and drink, and what security have we that they will continue at the task? |
29462 | Saw any one such a thing as that?" |
29462 | Shall I say that he is a good man because sometimes, when he has ceased to kill and torture those who serve him, he acts as other men? |
29462 | Shall I say,''Yes, I have misjudged him,''the man who has shot my servant here in this room and left me with the dead? |
29462 | Shall I tell it to the winds and the waves? |
29462 | Shall I tell this party he''d better be getting aboard again, eh, ma''am? |
29462 | Shall we see our home again-- you and I? |
29462 | She spoke of the madhouse, and who''ll deny, with reason? |
29462 | Should we say the same of them when daylight came? |
29462 | That he is kind, cruel; that we love him, hate him? |
29462 | That she was truly alarmed, and rightly so, I knew well; but what could I do? |
29462 | The comrades at my side ask again and again,"Do you see anything, captain?" |
29462 | The fog will fill it in five minutes, and what then? |
29462 | The keys-- where lay the keys? |
29462 | The men that the dark patches harboured, where were they? |
29462 | The story gripped them like a vice-- and who shall wonder at that? |
29462 | The talk pleased her, but giving her no time to think about it, I went on:"Mister Czerny, now, he would be living by here, I suppose?" |
29462 | The thing that remained to tell was, had we the strength and the breath to reach it? |
29462 | Then what of the engine- room? |
29462 | There is a ladder there, and-- oh, Jasper, what do you mean?" |
29462 | There is a ship on the Caskets-- a ship, do you hear?" |
29462 | This sea would best the biggest boat that ever a ship carried-- it will blow harder in an hour, and what then? |
29462 | This was but an interlude in which man could ask of man,"What next?" |
29462 | To the daughters of my master I give the artiste''s name-- why not? |
29462 | Was I wrong to believe that you would forget the promise?" |
29462 | Was it a boast for a man to stake all on a throw at such an hour? |
29462 | Was it chance or madness that I should pass it by? |
29462 | Was it the flag which friend or foe had raised? |
29462 | Was it well with the ship or ill? |
29462 | Was not the world before us, the awakening glory of Ken''s Island at our feet? |
29462 | Was she above or below the sea? |
29462 | Was the key on Czerny''s person or here in one of the drawers about? |
29462 | Was there ever such a story? |
29462 | We can not go down to the island, for does n''t she say it''s death to be caught there? |
29462 | We have food for three week-- month; but what come after? |
29462 | We lay all together in the turret, and very methodically, as seamen will, we stanched our wounds and asked,"What next?" |
29462 | We were going into the unknown; and we went with timorous steps, each asking himself,"Shall I live to see the day again?" |
29462 | What chance or miracle would show me those? |
29462 | What else you look for? |
29462 | What escape from the island? |
29462 | What escape was there from that place? |
29462 | What eyes would they have for us when their salvation lay aboard the yacht? |
29462 | What for they fight? |
29462 | What genius had pitched upon such a house under the waves? |
29462 | What good the key when men have guns?" |
29462 | What had become of the ship? |
29462 | What harbour, then, is open to them? |
29462 | What haven may they look for?" |
29462 | What hope for her or for me, I ask again? |
29462 | What hope of mercy had we from such a man? |
29462 | What is Edmond Czerny here for? |
29462 | What is to become of Jasper, my friend-- who will help him? |
29462 | What man would n''t have held his tongue at such a time, or argued with himself that it might end badly, and he never see the sun again? |
29462 | What more can I do?" |
29462 | What nonsense will he talk next?" |
29462 | What other man, I ask, would have let go his hold of the rocks when hold meant so much to him and that fish swam below? |
29462 | What other need could we think of? |
29462 | What shall I tell you about him? |
29462 | What should I say, then, to the mutineers, how answer them? |
29462 | What should a man remember then but those who counted upon him? |
29462 | What sort of a man is he, and where does he happen to be at this particular moment? |
29462 | What sort of men did you say that they were?" |
29462 | What spirit of evil breathed upon this dreadful place? |
29462 | What then? |
29462 | What time do you put her about to go ashore, sir?" |
29462 | What will be the end of it all? |
29462 | What would you say now to an Irish stew with a bit of bacon in it, and a glass of whisky to wash it down? |
29462 | What''s behind that door, now, and where may you have come from? |
29462 | When he has spoken it will be time enough to ask, What next?" |
29462 | When should we see her again? |
29462 | Whence out of the night shall the danger come? |
29462 | Where are they, man, where are they?" |
29462 | Where are they, then, and what keeps them?" |
29462 | Where did she lie? |
29462 | Where''s Seth Barker-- why does n''t he come down? |
29462 | Where''s your courage, man? |
29462 | Whereby did you hitch up names like those?" |
29462 | Who else but the cleverest would have thought of this place, and come here like a human vulture to feed upon ships and men? |
29462 | Who else will listen? |
29462 | Who finds the money for another steamer? |
29462 | Who knows? |
29462 | Who was to befriend little Ruth Bellenden now? |
29462 | Who was to help us in our plight? |
29462 | Who''ll gainsay that it was an unnatural thing? |
29462 | Who''s to feed them, who''s to house them? |
29462 | Who, in the agony of waiting, ever thinks aright or draws the truthful picture? |
29462 | Why are they firing?" |
29462 | Why did he do it, you ask? |
29462 | Why do you love me?'' |
29462 | Why does he skulk like a thief? |
29462 | Why go home, messieurs, if you not have any? |
29462 | Why is he frightened of me? |
29462 | Why shall he not come, captain?" |
29462 | Why shall they not take the house? |
29462 | Why should a man leave his shipmates if it is n''t by an accident? |
29462 | Why should she be unhappy?" |
29462 | Why should the rogues hide their beautiful faces? |
29462 | Why should they notice me when there were a hundred such in Czerny''s house? |
29462 | Why should they wait? |
29462 | Why, look at it-- what was the only word she had the time or the chance to say? |
29462 | Why, what would the master have to say, he coming home from foreign parts and you not ashore to meet him? |
29462 | Why, where''s your commissariat? |
29462 | Will any hear it? |
29462 | Will he be talking any more?" |
29462 | Will he tell them, I wonder, that Ruth Bellenden is dead? |
29462 | Will it be forever? |
29462 | Will the day bring waiting? |
29462 | Will the night never speak to us? |
29462 | Will they live a day in the fogs we know of? |
29462 | Will you go there or hold back? |
29462 | Will you run down and thank him kindly?" |
29462 | Will you see them die before our very eyes?" |
29462 | Will you stop her, sir, or shall we go dead slow?" |
29462 | Would any man, I ask, have believed that he could walk into such a trap and get out of it unharmed? |
29462 | Would fogs turn you back?" |
29462 | Would the light never come; would that breaking East never speed its joyous day? |
29462 | Would the ship ever come back? |
29462 | Would the sleep- time endure long, and should we live through it? |
29462 | Would they not look to us for the satisfaction the chief rogue denied to them? |
29462 | Would you shoot the sea? |
29462 | Would you starve your crew and think nothing of it? |
29462 | You are brave men, and you have all a woman''s trust and gratitude; but, Jasper, when my husband comes, what will you say to him? |
29462 | You are her friend, perhaps; you would know that she is unhappy?" |
29462 | You are n''t afraid of them, surely?" |
29462 | You will go away before the sleep- time, monsieur?" |
29462 | You will help me to do that, Peter?" |
29462 | You''ll be here, doctor, no doubt, to ascertain the truth of it? |
29462 | You''ll do that, sir?" |
29462 | Your party will be more than that?" |
29462 | Your ship gone? |
29462 | added Peter Bligh;"aye, that''s it, captain, where''s the dinner to come from?" |
29462 | asked I at last;"is it true, doctor?" |
29462 | asked I, for my breath was coming short now;"do you see any road, man?" |
29462 | cried I, in astonishment,"not heard of her-- why, what shore do you hail from, then? |
29462 | cried I, the seaman''s habit coming to me at the dreadful spectacle,"was ever such a thing heard of? |
29462 | cried I;"do n''t you see there''s water ahead?" |
29462 | cried she;"why do you come alone? |
29462 | cries Peter, as though in amazement;"did I say things that ought n''t to be said? |
29462 | cries he all at once, bringing out the words like a pump might have done;"yonder on the hillside, shipmates-- is it fireflies or lanterns?" |
29462 | cries he,"and what may you be wanting, my hearties, and what flag do you sail under?" |
29462 | for what right have I to serve you before him? |
29462 | is it real? |
29462 | said I,"if this is it-- if this is it----"And why should it not have been? |
29462 | said she, between her sobs; and what could I do, what could any man do who would kiss the ground a woman walks upon but has no right or title to? |
29462 | she exclaimed,"what are you going to do, Jasper?" |
29462 | she kept on saying,"what shall we do next? |
29462 | what did I not see? |
29462 | who could tell? |
