11379	I have n''t seen any reason to change, have you?
11379	If I could do my part as well as you do yours, we would n''t fail so often, would we, old man?"

11379	Is anything wrong with Ruth?
11379	Is he badly, hurt?
11379	Is it decided that he will go?"
11379	Is it the same that made a dignified gentleman, like David, dance-- as those fanatics are doing down there-- till he became a laughing- stock?
11379	Is it the same that made a sensible man like Saul join his faith to a witch and believe that he saw visions?

11379	Is n''t it good?"
11379	Is n''t it like a chime of fairy bells, heard in a dream?
11379	Is n''t it ready?"
11379	Is she your sister?
11379	Is there anything in the science of your profession to explain it?
11379	It would n''t be possible for you to do that, would it?"
11379	Looking upward toward his own reward, even this bitter, black winter''s night became as nothing; but Toby-- what was there for Toby?
11379	May I ask, sir, if you can tell me the precise date of the attorney- general''s departure-- for the seat of war, I mean-- for Tippecanoe?"
11379	May I read it now?
11379	Oh-- why-- don''t you come to me?
11379	Ruth must know sooner or later, and, knowing, would she still love him?
11379	See-- was there ever anything so lovely?"
11379	So that he now plunged in without any address at all:"I say-- who pays for them there youngsters, yonder?"
11379	The question is-- How?
11379	The very trees, the very leaves on the trees, seemed to be singing together and praising God.... Will you share this divine peace with me?
11379	Then flashing round on him in her impetuous way:"Why do n''t you say that you feel his heart beat?
11379	There is no reason, is there, to think that she does n''t love the young man?
11379	Was he going with the attorney- general to Tippecanoe?
11379	We are all proud of him-- hey, judge?"
11379	We''ve gone over all that-- and more than once-- haven''t we?

11379	What do you make of it all?
11379	What do you mean by reading anything so tiresome out of that foolish book?
11379	What do you mean by speaking so to my uncle Robert?
11379	What do you think it could have been?

11379	What have you allowed to happen to her?
11379	What have you done with the child?

11379	Which way did they go?
11379	Who are they?"
11379	Who are you that come here putting your hand on my niece, and ordering the family about?
11379	Who could blame the girl?
11379	Who ever heard of such a thing before?
11379	Who is that?"
11379	Who is with him?"
11379	Who knows?
11379	Who that has known the horse at his best can have failed to observe and recognize and be moved by this fact?

11379	Will you give it to me now, sir?
11379	Will you never come?
11379	Would she never reach it?
11379	You are out of place here; as Uncle Philip Alston says--""Then why did he put me here?"
11379	You do see, do n''t you?"
11379	You remembered, did n''t you, to tell him that the latch- string of Cedar House always hangs on the outside?
11379	You will remember-- and tell her?"
11379	You wo n''t mind stopping to tell Ruth, doctor?
11379	and what were you doing?
