4271 | Canna ye be content without that whining bairn?'' |
4271 | Could the natives have hidden themselves at sight of an armed vessel? |
4271 | Cut out your poor tongue, have they, the rascals, and made a dummy of you? |
4271 | Did you see a ruined fort on a promontory? |
4271 | Do they not dread the British flag?'' |

4271 | Hae na I dune enough for ye, Maister Arthur-- giving half my beasties, and more than half my silver? |
4271 | He understood and answered, but the imperfect language or his looks betrayed him, for Hadji Eseb demanded,''Thou art Frank, my son?'' |

4271 | Not"Prince Percinet and Princess Gracieuse?"'' |
4271 | Once again, young man, Issa Ben Mariam and slavery, or Mohammed and freedom?'' |
4271 | Once more Tam looked up, saying,''Ye''ll be good to puir Fareek;''and with a word more,''Oh, Christ: will He save such as I?'' |
4271 | Put yon sheyk down on the wharf at Eyemouth, and what wad he say to the Christian folk there?'' |
4271 | Runaways, eh? |
4271 | Should he ever be allowed to see poor little Ulysse again, or to speak to Yusuf, in whom lay their only faint hope of redemption? |
4271 | So what odds culd it mak, if I took up with the Prophet, and I was ower lang leggit to row in a galley? |
4271 | Suppose we brought all the tribe to come down and ask baptism, like as St. Nona did in the_ Lives of the Saints_?" |
4271 | Telemaque? |
4271 | The leddy, your mither, an''you hae been mair to me than a''beside that''s above ground, and what wad ye do wi''out the siller?'' |
4271 | The old nurse laughed heartily, but Victorine cried out,''Does Mademoiselle think I am going to follow naughty little girls who invent follies? |
4271 | Then drawing near to Arthur, he said,''Can ye gar yon wean keep a quiet sough, if we make him pass for the little black?'' |
4271 | Then, is my mamma alive and safe?'' |
4271 | There is good in you-- noble goodness, Tam; and who could have put it there but God, the Holy Spirit? |
4271 | Was he to be neglected and starved? |
4271 | Was he utterly forsaken? |
4271 | Was he washed overboard? |
4271 | Was she of kin to you?'' |
4271 | Was this all the relic that he should ever be able to take to her husband? |
4271 | What can be done with him? |
4271 | What could you do but lose your own?'' |
4271 | What do you think could harm us, Monsieur, when we are going to my dear papa?'' |
4271 | What? |
4271 | Where are the lady and the rest?'' |
4271 | Where are the rest?'' |
4271 | Where d''ye hail from?'' |
4271 | Where were the Cabeleyzes who had thus greeted them? |
4271 | Who are you, my little man? |
4271 | Why do not you speak to me?'' |
4271 | Why should I be called by so ugly a name? |
4271 | Will you count it?'' |
4271 | Would their strength and provisions hold out? |
4271 | Ye''ll never have heard tell of Partan Jeannie?'' |
4271 | Ye''ve thought better of it now?'' |
4271 | You see where I have placed our passports? |
4271 | an''have they made a haythen Moor of ye? |
4271 | and how many of you?'' |
4271 | and whom could ye be bound to serve barring Master Phelim, that''s lain in the same cradle with yees--''''Is not Victorine here, mother?'' |
4271 | but what do they care for that, the robbers? |
4271 | for which of my sins is it that after fifty voyages I should be condemned to lose my all?'' |
4271 | is it you? |
4271 | l''Abbe?'' |
4271 | my dear_ demoiselle_, what would my poor ladies say to see you sleeping on the bare ground in a filthy hut?'' |
4271 | or will they try to make me renounce my faith? |
59535 | 3,000 of them? |
59535 | All? |
59535 | And how long does that last? |
59535 | And if we''re not? |
59535 | And what of the phenomena an individual scientist observes and evaluates? 59535 Any subversives among them?" |
59535 | Anything else, Doc? |
59535 | Can you be specific? |
59535 | Can you justify what you have done to these people even from your own value judgement basis? |
59535 | Can you tell when your baby is starting to wake up? |
59535 | Do n''t you know your baby is all right? |
59535 | Do n''t you realize that Huth can destroy all of you? |
59535 | Do you have another nursery room, like the one we visited this morning? |
59535 | Do you know the number of missing persons listed annually by the Los Angeles Police Department? |
59535 | Do you mind telling me your name? |
59535 | Do you now? 59535 Do you think we can do anything like that again?" |
59535 | Do you think we''ll ever get back, Lucifer? |
59535 | Does this begin to satisfy your laws of probability? |
59535 | Dr. Brill, are you ready to share your primacy in psi research with the physicial scientist? |
59535 | Dr. Brill,said Huth,"will you oblige us now?" |
59535 | Enough for what? |
59535 | Gentlemen, is there any limit to the power of a psi focus? 59535 Glad?" |
59535 | Has anyone been here? |
59535 | Hostage? |
59535 | How could we try this thing, Doc? |
59535 | How did you know that? |
59535 | How did you know what was said in this room? |
59535 | How do you do this thing? |
59535 | How does anyone know they know anything? |
59535 | How many children are there here now? |
59535 | How''d things go today? |
59535 | Huh? |
59535 | I thought--"Does a child have to be awake to tell of its hunger? |
59535 | I wonder where Earth is? |
59535 | I''m from San Diego-- how about you? |
59535 | If a psi focus is possible, we have our own world to win-- the frontiers of infinity to explore....Are you willing to try?" |
59535 | If you do n''t mind, Dr. Brill-- just what in the hell are positive positives? |
59535 | Is n''t it simply incredible that 3,000 people could disappear without causing a commotion? |
59535 | Is something wrong with my baby? |
59535 | Is that why your mind feels like a machine? |
59535 | Is the baby usually crying when it is brought into the room? |
59535 | Is this a laboratory big enough to challenge you? |
59535 | Is this necessary? |
59535 | Is your question philosophical or psychological, Miss Poteil? |
59535 | Just what are you interested in? 59535 May I inquire as to the nature of your profession?" |
59535 | Miss Poteil, have you any idea where we are? |
59535 | Mr. Huth, how long have we, Dr. Brill and I, been here on Melus? |
59535 | Mrs. Brill-- how would you propose to train a child so early? |
59535 | Now tell me,Nina asked,"is your baby awake yet?" |
59535 | Pull.... Oh, I had n''t realized.... What do you think you can do? |
59535 | Shall we blast that ship before it opens up on us? |
59535 | The girl with the blindfold? |
59535 | Then what do you see in the future of this project? |
59535 | Then why do you destroy it? |
59535 | Then why in the hell is this important, anyway? |
59535 | We''re going to pull that plug, remember? |
59535 | Wha--? |
59535 | What about the children? |
59535 | What about you-- are you ever afraid, Nina? |
59535 | What about your_ Goolies_? |
59535 | What are you proving by this inferior duplication of our psi tests? |
59535 | What do you think now, Dr. Brill? 59535 What if all the psi power here could be focused on one objective? |
59535 | What is it? |
59535 | What is unhappiness? |
59535 | What is your last recollection prior to awakening? |
59535 | What might that be? |
59535 | What now, Doc? |
59535 | What will we do? |
59535 | What''s the matter,she cried,"do n''t you have faith in yourselves? |
59535 | What-- what do you mean? |
59535 | What? |
59535 | When do you plan to do this? |
59535 | When is the next feeding time? |
59535 | When?--Where?--Who? |
59535 | Where did you learn that name? |
59535 | Where? 59535 Who or what was that creature?" |
59535 | Will you try to feed her this time before she cries, when she first tells you that she is hungry? |
59535 | Would n''t that give us the force of three thousand generators-- fused into one unit? 59535 Would you fight with a knife if you had a machine gun? |
59535 | Yes? |
59535 | You both there? |
59535 | You do n''t care what all this may mean? |
59535 | You do n''t have to look to stop them, do you? 59535 You do n''t remember? |
59535 | You got it all figured out? |
59535 | You''re not going to do something to my baby? |
59535 | ***** What should he think? |
59535 | A spaceship crushed? |
59535 | An attacking force cut down like grass under an invisible mower? |
59535 | And if the answer was framework, could there be truth? |
59535 | And the next? |
59535 | And the next? |
59535 | Are you afraid to fight with a new weapon?" |
59535 | Are you afraid, Lucifer?" |
59535 | Are you still afraid?" |
59535 | Are you?" |
59535 | Brill...?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | Brill?" |
59535 | But does a frontier of science have purpose other than to lead to an infinite succession of new frontiers? |
59535 | But how could he share his indecision? |
59535 | But what about the next frontier? |
59535 | But what of Huth, and Mendel''s Planet? |
59535 | But what use was it to go on confirming and re- confirming the existence of positives and positive positives if they just up and disappeared? |
59535 | But, I mean... under social or professional circumstances?" |
59535 | Can we work on them here today?" |
59535 | Could Soviet agents have smuggled them out of the country?" |
59535 | Could it be possible after all that the unorthodoxy of Earth''s parapsychology might have to be shaken from its own orthodoxy?" |
59535 | Could n''t facts take form without credo? |
59535 | Could you verify this with Dr. Thame? |
59535 | Did facts shape the framework, or were they molded to conform to it? |
59535 | Did n''t you feel what Dr. Brill meant by a psi focus? |
59535 | Did you see what happened to the guard tower?" |
59535 | Do you follow me, Sir?" |
59535 | Do you trust me?" |
59535 | Does that ease your mind?" |
59535 | Einstein made truth relative to its own framework, but which came first-- the framework or the truth? |
59535 | Good Lord, why not? |
59535 | Had he remained too long on one frontier? |
59535 | Have you ever thought how your science would appear to an extra- terrestrial mind?" |
59535 | Having thus appraised and catalogued the woman, Lucifer asked,"May I have the privilege of making your acquaintance?" |
59535 | He asked,"Do you have a sense of what may happen tomorrow?" |
59535 | How could a professor of parapsychology, a professor who knew less about his subject than the youngest child on this planet, assail such peaks? |
59535 | How could a psi focus be channeled and used constructively? |
59535 | How could he, or any combination of men, offer leadership into such a future? |
59535 | How could such children be controlled, educated, guided to maturity? |
59535 | How do I know?" |
59535 | How else do you suppose I happened to wake up in this bed?" |
59535 | How had things gone? |
59535 | However, in response to the first, may I inquire: Have you studied astronomy?" |
59535 | If the project could survive against the return of Huth''s people, what would keep it from disintegrating and destroying itself? |
59535 | If there were problem adolescents on Earth, what problems lay ahead with adolescents who could hotrod among the stars? |
59535 | Instead of moving a chair across the room, making a table jump, levitating a person-- why could n''t a building be moved? |
59535 | Is n''t it terrible to look at shadows?" |
59535 | Is n''t that a wonderful thought?" |
59535 | Is n''t that important?" |
59535 | Nina, flushed with eagerness, asked:"How is the baby fed?" |
59535 | Now consider this question: Have you looked into other cubicles of science for answers to psi?" |
59535 | Now do you have faith in yourselves? |
59535 | Now, are you going to feed your baby yourself this next time?" |
59535 | Now, if you please....""Would you care to make another appointment for tomorrow?" |
59535 | Quit shovin'', will ya''? |
59535 | She whispered:"Can I stay here a little while?" |
59535 | Was this forever to be the entrapment of science? |
59535 | We''re set to pull the plug any time you say?" |
59535 | What happened to non- positives on Melus? |
59535 | What have you proved that Rhine did not prove twenty years ago?" |
59535 | What is your specialization?" |
59535 | What should he believe? |
59535 | What should he believe? |
59535 | What should he believe? |
59535 | What should he do? |
59535 | What would Nina say and feel when she learned that he had no psi talent to pass on to their child? |
59535 | When he had collated his emotions, he asked in his customary tone,"Have we met?" |
59535 | When would science learn to use genius without being smothered by it? |
59535 | Where do you practice?" |
59535 | White House asked tentatively,"What about the Russian angle? |
59535 | White House asked:"What are we going to do about it?" |
59535 | Why else would they be wasting their time with rockets, while another race was running around the universe, kidnapping positives? |
59535 | Why?" |
59535 | Wo n''t you come in?" |
59535 | Would Fetzer and his men be able to contact everyone? |
59535 | Would the people believe enough in their own power to make a serious attempt at focusing it on the guard tower? |
59535 | Would you attack on horseback if you had a jet loaded with atom bombs?" |
59535 | Would you be content to return to your old cubicle?" |
59535 | what?" |
12398 | ''And now, thou sorrowful monkey, what aileth thee?'' |
12398 | ''Who can be better, or more worthy, than they should be? |
12398 | * And did she not own to thee, that once she could have loved me; and, could she have made me good, would have made me happy? |
12398 | * Yet would I fain secure thy morals too, if matrimony will do it.--Let me see!--Now I have it.---- Has not the widow Lovick a daughter, or a niece? |
12398 | -- As how, Madam? |
12398 | --But do you think I can leave off, in the middle of a conversation, to run and set down what offers, and send it away piece- meal as I write? |
12398 | --If I could, must I not lose one half, while I put down the other? |
12398 | Again,''I know you will favour us by and by; and what do you by your excuses but raise our expectations, and enhance your own difficulties?'' |
12398 | And are not the very devils, in Scripture, said to believe and tremble? |
12398 | And didst thou not, on that occasion, heavily blame thyself? |
12398 | And has she not forgiven me?--I am then in statu quo prius with her, am I not? |
12398 | And how was this happy ending to be brought about? |
12398 | And is she dead?--Indeed dead? |
12398 | And let me ask what thou thinkest of it? |
12398 | And must she not suffer dishonour in his dishonour? |
12398 | And ought a man of a contrary character, for the sake of either of our reputations, to be plagued with me? |
12398 | And shall not young ladies endeavour to make up for their defects in one part of education, by their excellence in another?'' |
12398 | And was not her aspect a benign proof of the observation? |
12398 | And what are twenty, or thirty, or forty years to look back upon? |
12398 | And what is the cause of his present concern, as to his own particular? |
12398 | And what is there in one woman more than another, for matter of that? |
12398 | And what, in effect, does my mother say? |
12398 | And yet, engaged to enter into that state, as I am, how can I help myself? |
12398 | And, who shall be proud of talents they give not to themselves?'' |
12398 | And, with these notions, let me repeat my question, Do you think I ought to marry at all? |
12398 | Are not all the girls forewarned? |
12398 | At another time,''Has not this accomplishment been a part of your education, my Nancy? |
12398 | But are you, to whom the occasion is owing, entitled to rejoice in their distress? |
12398 | But for thy HEART, Belford, who ever doubted the wickedness of that? |
12398 | But if that happens to her which is likely to happen, wilt thou not tremble for what may befal the principal? |
12398 | But is it not true, that those altercations are the foundation of the whole, and therefore a necessary part of the work? |
12398 | But this was her answer;''I have my choice, who can wish for more? |
12398 | But what is this, cousin Charlotte, said I, that is dearer to you than your life? |
12398 | But what should I be the better for killing him? |
12398 | But what title have I to call him to account, who intend not to have him?'' |
12398 | But why is death set in such shocking lights, when it is the universal lot? |
12398 | But why, if such were his purpose, did he not let me know it before I left England? |
12398 | But wilt thou write often, when I am gone? |
12398 | But, with respect to the case put, how knew we, till the theft was committed, that the miser did actually set so romantic a value upon the treasure? |
12398 | Can a wise young lady be easy under such censure? |
12398 | Could I have been more than so at the end of what is called a happy life of twenty, or thirty, or forty years to come? |
12398 | Could ever wilful hard- heartedness, the Colonel asks, be more severely punished? |
12398 | Did not the lady herself once putt his very point home upon me? |
12398 | Did not the surgeon tell me I might? |
12398 | Do I not pay for it now? |
12398 | Do the surgeons actually give her over? |
12398 | Do you think you are among those who know not how to make allowances? |
12398 | Does it not look as if your principal motive to oblige was to obtain applause? |
12398 | For am I not her husband? |
12398 | For is she not mine? |
12398 | For, I suppose, Jack, it is no joke: she is certainly and bonâ fide dead: I''n''t she? |
12398 | For, as I shall make the worst figure in it myself, and have a right to treat myself as nobody else shall, who shall controul me? |
12398 | Had she no repinings? |
12398 | Had the dear child no heart burnings? |
12398 | Have I not earned her dearly?--Is not d----n----n likely to be the purchase to me, though a happy eternity will be her''s? |
12398 | Her sex, did I say? |
12398 | How could she then forgive the wretch by whose premeditated villany she was entangled? |
12398 | How often, with you, has impetuosity brought on abasement? |
12398 | How then can I expect mercy any where else? |
12398 | How, then, for your own honour, can we allow of your excuses?'' |
12398 | I came back to the bed- side when the surgeons had inspected the fracture; and asked them, If there were any expectation of her life? |
12398 | I did not ask her, by whom reduced? |
12398 | I must go down to this officious Peer-- Who the devil sent for him? |
12398 | If I marry either a sordid or an imperious wretch, can I, do you think, live with him? |
12398 | In half of any of these periods, what friends might not I have mourned for? |
12398 | In such a case, my Cousin, where shall the evil stop?--And who shall avenge on you?--And who on your avenger? |
12398 | Is not the man guilty of a high degree of injustice, who is more apt to give contradiction, than able to bear it? |
12398 | Is not this Mr. Morden''s hand? |
12398 | Justly, said she, does she call me so; for we had but one heart, but one soul, between us; and now my better half is torn from me-- What shall I do? |
12398 | Let me consider, Lovelace-- Whose turn can be next? |
12398 | Let me know, if the d----d mother be yet the subject of the devil''s own vengeance-- if the old wretch be dead or alive? |
12398 | May I recover? |
12398 | Meantime, continued I, tell me, with temper and calmness, why was you so desirous to see me? |
12398 | Mrs. Carter asked, To what purpose, if the operation would not save her? |
12398 | Now, Lovelace, let me know if the word grace can be read from my pen without a sneer from thee and thy associates? |
12398 | O my Aunt, said Arabella, no more of that!--Who would have thought that the dear creature had been such a penitent? |
12398 | Once more then let me execrate-- but now violence and passion again predominate!--And how can it be otherwise? |
12398 | Pray, do you never travel thirty or forty miles? |
12398 | Shall we suppose, that you sing but indifferently? |
12398 | She, no doubt, is happy: but who shall forgive for a whole family, in all its branches made miserable for their lives? |
12398 | Sir, who is good? |
12398 | Such exalted generosity!--Why didst thou put into my craving hands the copy of her will? |
12398 | Supposing this excellent person absent, who, my dear, if your example spread, shall sing after you? |
12398 | The CHILD so much a woman, what must the WOMAN be? |
12398 | The conquest did not pay trouble; and what was there in one woman more than another? |
12398 | They that have seen him shall say, Where is he? |
12398 | Thou art a pretty fellow for this: For how wouldst thou have saved her? |
12398 | Thou talkest of a wife, Jack: What thinkest you of our Charlotte? |
12398 | To him who had been the cause that thou wert cut off in the bloom of youth?'' |
12398 | To what purpose did the doctor write, if she was so near her end?--Why, as every body says, did he not send sooner?-- Or, Why at all? |
12398 | Upon such despicable terms as these, think you that I could bear to live? |
12398 | Upon the whole, Jack, had not the lady died, would there have been half so much said of it, as there is? |
12398 | Was I the cause of her death? |
12398 | Was he unable to work himself up to a resolution, till he knew me to be out of the kingdom? |
12398 | Were she a man, do you think, Sir, she, at this time, would have your advice to take upon such a subject as that upon which you write? |
12398 | What else signifies her forgiveness? |
12398 | What great matters has she suffered, that grief should kill her thus? |
12398 | What have Tourville and Mowbray to do, that they can not set out with you? |
12398 | What mercy can I expect? |
12398 | What methods didst thou take to save her? |
12398 | What though I treated her like a villain? |
12398 | What was the world to her, wringing her hands, now the child of her bosom, and of her heart, was no more? |
12398 | Whence can this particularity arise? |
12398 | Which is Mr. Belford''s? |
12398 | Who can bear such reflections as these? |
12398 | Who could forbear to do so? |
12398 | Who knows but that those things, which will help to secure you in the way you are got into, may convert me? |
12398 | Who, I? |
12398 | Whose else can she be? |
12398 | Why not? |
12398 | Why sentest thou to me the posthumous letter?--What thou I was earnest to see the will? |
12398 | Why should I oppress others, to gratify myself? |
12398 | Why, he asks, did his mother bring him up to know no controul? |
12398 | Why, then, should such cursed qualms take him?--Who would have thought he had been such poor blood? |
12398 | Why, why did my mother bring me up to bear no controul? |
12398 | Will amputation save her? |
12398 | Will it avail you any thing? |
12398 | Will those be an objection? |
12398 | Will you not, dear Sir, favour us with your presence at this melancholy time? |
12398 | Wilt thou then piece the thread where thou brokest it off? |
12398 | Would she not have been mine had I not? |
12398 | Would thy fond love his grace to her controul, And in these low abodes of sin and pain Her pure, exalted soul, Unjustly, for thy partial good detain? |
12398 | Yet who but must pity the unhappy mother? |
12398 | Yet why he should, I can not see: for if she is gone, she is gone; and who can help it? |
12398 | You hate them; and they would be gainers by his death; rejoicers in your''s-- And have you not done mischief enough already? |
12398 | and, being forgiven by her, am I not the chosen of her heart? |
12398 | as if I had never offended?--Whose then can she be but mine? |
12398 | or could I help it? |
12398 | preferable to the talent of singing? |
12398 | said she, and is it come to this?--O my poor Nancy!--How shall I be able to break the matter to my Nancy? |
12398 | said she, did you not tell me I might recover? |
12398 | to see him sit silent in a corner, when he has tired himself with his mock majesty, and with his argumentation,( Who so fond of arguing as he?) |
12398 | what temptations from worldly prosperity might I not have encountered with? |
12398 | what will become of me?--Yet tell me,( for the surgeons have told you the truth, no doubt,) tell me, shall I do well again? |
12398 | when, shall I know a joyful hour? |
12398 | who dare call me to account? |
12180 | ( briskly) And by what arguments, Sir, do you propose to prevail upon me? |
12180 | A fortnight, Sir? |
12180 | A pretty character for thee, is it not? |
12180 | A skilful physician? |
12180 | Afraid of what, Doctor? |
12180 | And I used to believe him too-- and yet, fond of life, and fearful of death, what do we do, when we are taken ill, but call ye in? |
12180 | And can indignities of any kind be properly pardoned till we have it in our power to punish them? |
12180 | And can this be the act of penitence? |
12180 | And did she send you such a letter? |
12180 | And had he been pardoned, would he not then have been at liberty to do as much mischief as ever? |
12180 | And how could Belton help that? |
12180 | And indeed, either openly or secretly, who has not? |
12180 | And now, Mrs. Smith, said I, where are your gloves? |
12180 | And now, what ought I to say? |
12180 | And should I think myself concerned for your fortune, and not for your honour? |
12180 | And then I read to them several passages in his letter, and asked what foundation she had for giving that fellow such impressions of either of us? |
12180 | And then add:] But were they ever so favourably inclined to me now, what can they do for me? |
12180 | And then recovering himself, with another stretch and a shake, What''s o''clock? |
12180 | And then would my brother, or my cousin Morden, have been more secure than now? |
12180 | And then, Sir, of what avail will be the''eulogies''you shall all, peradventure, join to give to her memory? |
12180 | And to what may this indifference be owing? |
12180 | And were you, Sir, thus earnest? |
12180 | And what are those of the ladies? |
12180 | And what do ye do, when called in, but nurse our distempers, till from pigmies you make giants of them? |
12180 | And what farther, in your opinion, can be done? |
12180 | And what follows? |
12180 | And what have I, more than many others, to answer for on this account in the world''s eye? |
12180 | And what is the difference of a few days to you, when I am gratified rather than discomposed by it? |
12180 | And what is to be the end of your interrogatories? |
12180 | And what must they be every time she turns her head towards it? |
12180 | And what, after all, would this lady deserve, if she has deceived me in this case? |
12180 | And what, pray, is the part I act, and my motives for it? |
12180 | And when he read to them that passage, where you ask Miss Howe,''What can be done for you now, were your friends to be ever so favourable? |
12180 | And where dost think this was? |
12180 | And who but ourselves can make out our characters, were you inclined to let any body see what passes between us? |
12180 | And who knows not that difficulty gives poignancy to our enjoyments; which are apt to lose their relish with us when they are over easily obtained? |
12180 | And who knows where it may yet end? |
12180 | And who, pray, is in this room? |
12180 | And why? |
12180 | And will he come? |
12180 | And will nothing make him serious? |
12180 | And yet go out again this morning early? |
12180 | And, as to you, Sir, she forgives you: she wishes you well; and happier than you will let her die in peace? |
12180 | Are not my days few? |
12180 | Are you not willing, Nephew, are you not most willing, to marry this lady, if she can be prevailed upon to have you? |
12180 | Are you reconciled to them? |
12180 | Are you sent for down? |
12180 | As soon as he discovers that that was only a stratagem to keep him away, he will come up, and who knows but even now he is upon the road? |
12180 | At last she broke silence, asking me, if you were really and indeed so ill as it was said you were? |
12180 | Brand really seems to be? |
12180 | Brother and sister so immovably fixed against the only means that could be taken to put all right with every body?--And what now can be done? |
12180 | But I am not merry-- I am sad!--Hey- ho!--Where shall I find my dear Miss Harlowe? |
12180 | But are there no hopes of her recovery? |
12180 | But did my cousin come purposely to town to see me? |
12180 | But do n''t you think there is something very favourable to my nephew in this letter-- something that looks as if the lady would comply at last? |
12180 | But have you, Sir, that letter of his in which he gives you( as I suppose he does) the copy of mine? |
12180 | But if he come, what shall I do about the screen? |
12180 | But let me ask you, Mr. Lovelace, what is the name of your friend, who is admitted so easily into my cousin''s presence? |
12180 | But my friends may possibly be better justified than the reporters-- For who knows what they may have heard? |
12180 | But since you are loth to answer my question directly, I will put it in other words-- You do n''t enjoin me to go into the air, Doctor, do you? |
12180 | But then what is my tumbling over and over through the floor into a frightful hole, descending as she ascends? |
12180 | But what accounting for it is necessary? |
12180 | But what are the black sweeping mantles and robes of Lord M. thrown over my face? |
12180 | But what do you bid me hope for, when you tell me that, if your mother''s health will permit, you will see me in town? |
12180 | But what is the meaning I hear nothing from thee? |
12180 | But what is this saying, when already I curse the whole world except her-- myself most? |
12180 | But what need the doctor to ask her leave to write to her friends? |
12180 | But what of that? |
12180 | But whither am I running? |
12180 | But who told this hard- hearted and death- pronouncing doctor that she will hold it no longer? |
12180 | But who, that has so many ludicrous images raised in his mind by the awkward penitence, can forbear laughing at thee? |
12180 | But whose is this? |
12180 | But why delay I thus my messenger? |
12180 | But why didst thou not comfort the poor man about the rencounter between him and that poltroon Metcalfe? |
12180 | But with some, indeed, every thing she does must be good, every thing I do must be bad-- And why? |
12180 | But, Jack, though thy uncle''s death has made thee a rich fellow, art thou sure that the making good of such a vow will not totally bankrupt thee? |
12180 | But, Sir, will you permit me to take with me these two letters? |
12180 | But, if you leave me-- what is the world, or any thing in it, to your ANNA HOWE? |
12180 | But, what shall we say? |
12180 | By what warrant says he this? |
12180 | Can I be above the man, Sir, to whom I shall give my hand and my vows, and with them a sanction to the most premeditated baseness? |
12180 | Can you, Sir, remind me of any thing necessary to be done or said to make your office easy? |
12180 | Col. Are you sure, Sir, that Mr. Belford is a man of honour? |
12180 | Col. High language, Mr. Lovelace? |
12180 | Col. Is it possible? |
12180 | Col. Let me put this question to you, Mr. Lovelace: Is it true, as I have heard it is, that you would marry my cousin, if she would have you? |
12180 | Col. Only this: that an officious pragmatical novice has been sent up to inquire into my cousin''s life and conversation: And, would you believe it? |
12180 | Col. What reason, Sir, may I ask, does she give, against listening to so powerful a mediation, and to such offers? |
12180 | Col. Who are you, Sir? |
12180 | Come, said she, what will you give me, and I''ll be as virtuous for a quarter of an hour, and mimic your Clarissa to the life? |
12180 | Confound me for a gaping puppy, how I yawn!--Where shall I begin? |
12180 | Could he not have done it without letting her know any thing of the matter? |
12180 | D----n the fellow, where''s thy penknife? |
12180 | D----n the fellow, why dost struggle thus? |
12180 | Dangerously ill, say you? |
12180 | Dear Mrs. Lovick, tell me what is become of her? |
12180 | Did you not see him? |
12180 | Do n''t you remember the lines of Howard, which once you read to me in my ivy- bower? |
12180 | Do not, my dear friend, be concerned that I call it my last stage; For what is even the long life which in high health we wish for? |
12180 | Do you know Mr. Belford, friend? |
12180 | Do you know me? |
12180 | Do you know who I am? |
12180 | Do you know your poor friend Belton? |
12180 | Except indeed we look forward to the rewards of HEREAFTER, which, morally, she must be sure of, or who can? |
12180 | For does she not brazen out her crime, even after detection? |
12180 | For how is it that I am the enemy of her soul, when I love her both soul and body? |
12180 | For may not the inclination my mother has given up be the effect of a too- fond indulgence, rather than that I merit the indulgence? |
12180 | Had I not, Mrs. Smith? |
12180 | Has any body been here from him? |
12180 | Has he not destroyed my fame and my fortune? |
12180 | Has he not punished me enough for my preference of him to all his sex? |
12180 | Has repented of all his baseness: And will nothing do? |
12180 | Has she had good attendance, Sir? |
12180 | Hast thou?--Answer me, man: Hast thou, or not? |
12180 | He was a fearless, cheerful fellow: who''d have thought all that should end in such dejected whimpering and terror? |
12180 | Here, Andrew,[ to her footman,] you want a pair of gloves, do n''t you? |
12180 | How can that be, widow? |
12180 | How can you think of such a thing, Mr. Belford? |
12180 | How could your accursed friend-- And how could her cruel parents? |
12180 | How familiarly dost thou use the words, dying, dimness, tremor? |
12180 | How long have I dozed? |
12180 | How so? |
12180 | How then can the fall of such a one create a proper distress, when all the circumstances of it are considered? |
12180 | How would you like, my dear, to have any of these things said? |
12180 | I am sure I should-- But pray, Sir, how did you leave them? |
12180 | I asked, if I should write to her cousin, as he knew not how ill she was, to hasten up? |
12180 | I asked, what it was they sold? |
12180 | I asked, what was intended by your brother and sister? |
12180 | I can not bear it!--What a dog, what a devil have I been to a goodness so superlative!--Why does she not inveigh against me? |
12180 | I demanded where their rappee was? |
12180 | I do, Sir; and what can I say more? |
12180 | I had but just dispatched your servant, and was asking her nurse if I might be again admitted? |
12180 | I have the honour to be nearly related to her.--Step up, pray, and let her know,( she is sensible, I hope,) that I am here-- Who is with her? |
12180 | I hesitated: For how could I answer for such a man? |
12180 | I looked about me, and above me; and told them I was very proud of my seat; asking, if John were ever permitted to fill this superb niche? |
12180 | I stept to him, and favoured his retreat; she only saying, Are you going, Mr. Belford? |
12180 | I will pay thee a good price, man: do n''t struggle thus? |
12180 | I would be glad to know how I am to take your''s? |
12180 | If he did not, I could not pass it over, though you have nearer relations; for, my dear Cousin, did not your grandfather leave me in trust for you? |
12180 | If she should die, how will all my pertnesses to her fly in my face!-- Why, why, did I ever vex her? |
12180 | If, Madam, your cousin Morden should come, you would be glad to see him, I presume? |
12180 | In which case, would not( on his acquittal, or pardon) resentments have been reciprocally heightened? |
12180 | Is it any merit to admire more than ever a lady who can so exaltedly distinguish? |
12180 | Is it because I was stung? |
12180 | Is it not Belford, pray? |
12180 | Is it not a little hard upon you, that these troubles should fall so thick to your lot? |
12180 | Is it not because the latter allow themselves in any liberty, in order to carry a point? |
12180 | Is it not just language? |
12180 | Is it you? |
12180 | Is my cousin come? |
12180 | Is she within? |
12180 | It is such a horrid thing to think of, that a man who had lived in such strict terms of-- what shall I call it? |
12180 | It may one day, who knows how soon? |
12180 | It opened with the dying man''s asking him, with melancholy earnestness, if nothing-- if nothing at all could be done for him? |
12180 | John hereupon put on a serious, and a less respectful face-- Sir, this house is mine; and-- And what, friend? |
12180 | Joseph, what said John to thee? |
12180 | Just then, turning my eye to the door, I saw a pretty, genteel lady, with a footman after her, peeping in with a What''s the matter, good folks? |
12180 | Let me, therefore, know( if you please) whether you are willing to appear to do yourself, and us, and your sex, this justice? |
12180 | Lord M. But what is all this, but more sacks upon the mill? |
12180 | Lord M. What the devil canst thou mean? |
12180 | Lord M.( interposing again, as we were both for going out,) And what will this do, gentlemen? |
12180 | Mowbray whispered me, What is the cause, Bobby?--Shall I take the gentleman to task for thee, my boy? |
12180 | Mowbray, is this acting like a friend by me, to suppose me incapable of answering for myself? |
12180 | Mrs. Smith standing next him, Why, said he, with great emotion, is my cousin suffered to indulge her sad reflections with such an object before her? |
12180 | Must bold creatures, and forward spirits, for ever, and by the best and wisest of us, as well as by the indiscreetest, be the most kindly treated? |
12180 | Nor ought you take it amiss, if you rightly weigh the matter: For, Sir, whom does a lady want protection against but her injurers? |
12180 | Now if he give you your life, does he not give, think you, a valuable consideration for the money you engage your honour to send him? |
12180 | Now, Jack, what can a man make of all this? |
12180 | Or how will injuries be believed to grieve us, that are never honourably complained of? |
12180 | Poor Lovelace!----What a devil ails thee? |
12180 | Pray, Sir, did she return an answer to this letter? |
12180 | Really, Sir, you take-- Great liberties I hope you would not say, Mrs. Smith? |
12180 | Shall I give thee a faint picture of the horrible uneasiness with which my mind struggles? |
12180 | Shall I go up, and see if Miss Harlowe be there, Mrs. Smith? |
12180 | Shall I, Madam, send my servant post with it? |
12180 | She asked, with great serenity, where you were? |
12180 | She is to send me a letter after she is in Heaven, is she? |
12180 | She said, Whither can I go, Mrs. Lovick? |
12180 | Should not every body that has any thing to bequeath make their will? |
12180 | Sir, replied the good woman, who should controul her? |
12180 | Sir? |
12180 | Smith.--Why should you? |
12180 | So, old acquaintance, how do you now? |
12180 | Suppose you kill one another, will the matter be bettered or worsted by that? |
12180 | Ten days?--A week?--How long, Sir? |
12180 | The Colonel, as Mrs. Smith told me afterwards, asked with great impatience, the moment he alighted, how Miss Harlowe was? |
12180 | The gin, the snare, the net, mean matrimony, I suppose-- But is it a crime in me to wish to marry her? |
12180 | The man whom once I could have loved, I have been enabled to despise: And shall not charity complete my triumph? |
12180 | The question is, if your life is not in the fellow''s power? |
12180 | The remedy I propose is a severe one: But what pain can be more severe than the injury? |
12180 | Then, why do good people take upon themselves to censure, as they do, persons less scrupulous than themselves? |
12180 | These the poets liken to''enamelling''--have you not read in the poets of''enamelled meads,''and so forth? |
12180 | This letter is very different from her preceding one!--You returned an answer to it, Mr. Lovelace? |
12180 | This made a trifling affair important: And what was the issue? |
12180 | Thou, perhaps, wilt ask, what honest man is obliged to keep his promise with a highwayman? |
12180 | Was I right, as to the first, Jack? |
12180 | We all remaining silent, the women having their aprons at their eyes, Why this concern for nothing at all? |
12180 | Well, and Mr. Belford wrote me word that she was exceeding ill. How then can she be gone out? |
12180 | Well, but my good dear Mrs. Smith, where is the lady gone? |
12180 | Well, with all my heart, said I:''tis not for us tradesmen to be saucy-- Is it, Mrs. Smith? |
12180 | What a devil will it signify talking, if thus you are to blow one another up at every word? |
12180 | What a step has he made me take to avoid him!--Who can touch pitch, and not be defiled? |
12180 | What can I say?--But why should not you know the truth? |
12180 | What can it be, Bob.? |
12180 | What canst earn a- day, man? |
12180 | What could Belford do for him? |
12180 | What could I say to an inference so fairly drawn? |
12180 | What do you sell, Sir? |
12180 | What makes you put this question? |
12180 | What must I save you from? |
12180 | What rooms have you to let? |
12180 | What say you, Mrs. Smith, to this? |
12180 | What signifies this transitory eclipse? |
12180 | What will that do for me? |
12180 | What would I give for one year of my past life?--only one year-- and to have the same sense of things that I now have? |
12180 | What''s the matter, my Lord? |
12180 | What, I wonder, has again happened between you and Mr. Hickman? |
12180 | What, but, as we go along, a life of apprehension, sometimes for our friends, oftener for ourselves? |
12180 | Where are they, if a customer shall come in? |
12180 | Where is her servant? |
12180 | Where is this new face? |
12180 | Where, where? |
12180 | Who could be otherwise? |
12180 | Who could have believe there could be parents so implacable? |
12180 | Who knows what may arise from his arrival? |
12180 | Who knows, as it would have come from an associate, and of an associate, it might have affected him? |
12180 | Who the devil could have expected such consequences as these? |
12180 | Whom do you guess me to be? |
12180 | Why so, Mrs. Smith? |
12180 | Why so, Sir? |
12180 | Why so, Sir? |
12180 | Why will he wish to interrupt me in my duty? |
12180 | Why will ye break a leaf driven to and fro? |
12180 | Why will ye pursue the dry stubble? |
12180 | Why will ye write bitter words against me, and make me possess the iniquities of my youth? |
12180 | Why, O why was she not before willing? |
12180 | Why, father Smith, thy wife is a wit, man!--Didst thou ever find that out before?--But where is widow Lovick, dame Smith? |
12180 | Will neither vows nor prayers save her? |
12180 | Will the lady be made happier or unhappier, do you think, by either or both of your deaths? |
12180 | Wilt thou forgive my troubling thee with such visionary stuff? |
12180 | Would any other woman think it so? |
12180 | Wouldst thou think that this varlet Mowbray is sorry that I am so near being happy with Miss Harlowe? |
12180 | You do n''t know, do you, Colonel, that Mr. Lovelace, at all our requests, is disposed to marry the lady? |
12180 | You do n''t look like a hard- hearted gentleman!--How can you thus hunt and persecute a poor lady, whom none of her relations will look upon? |
12180 | You do n''t tell me where she is? |
12180 | You have a young lady lodges here; Miss Harlowe, Madam: Is she above? |
12180 | You have seen what I wrote, no doubt? |
12180 | You never saw me before, did you? |
12180 | Your Lordship has been in Italy, I presume? |
12180 | Your intimacy, Sir, with Mr. Lovelace, and( may I say?) |
12180 | and when will she return? |
12180 | do I want wash- balls? |
12180 | do n''t be afraid-- How long, Sir? |
12180 | for the Lord hath rewarded thee: And why? |
12180 | how can it be? |
12180 | how would they set off one another, and be adorned by the wearer!-- Go to the devil!--I will write!--Can I do anything else? |
12180 | is your''s the new face? |
12180 | more coals upon the fire? |
12180 | or is she gone with Miss Harlowe too? |
12180 | said I, where''s thy pruning- knife? |
12180 | said I; save you from what? |
12180 | said he, what''s here? |
12180 | said he, with his hands and eyes lifted up, can I see her? |
12180 | said she; how kindly are you concerned for me!--Who says I am friendless? |
12180 | so thou wouldst, if thou hadst it on: but thou never wearest thy hat in thy wife''s presence, I believe; dost thou? |
12180 | turning his head this way and that; horror in his countenance; Did you not see him? |
12180 | what will he then think of the poor transitory gratifications of sense, which now engage all his attention? |
12180 | whither fled? |
11889 | ''Tis only, simply, a blessing I ask: a blessing to die with; not to lie with.--Do they know that? |
11889 | ''Tis true, by my soul!--Has she not hinted this to Miss Howe, do you think? |
11889 | ''What then, my dear and only friend, can I wish for but death?--And what, after all, is death? |
11889 | *** Again they asked her if they should send any word to her lodgings? |
11889 | -- And is this the cause of such a disgraceful insult upon me in the open streets? |
11889 | ----But am I to go with men only? |
11889 | --And,''Whether they actually did go to town accordingly, and to Hampstead afterwards?'' |
11889 | --Besides, dost think I shall grudge to replace, to three times the value, what she disposes of? |
11889 | --But is not the fact quite otherwise? |
11889 | --Have you ever read Prior''s Alma, Mr. Hickman? |
11889 | --May I not ask, if Miss Howe be here? |
11889 | --This I leave to your inquiry-- for-- your--[shall I call the man---- your?] |
11889 | --What say you to that, Sir- r? |
11889 | A blessing for what, sister Clary? |
11889 | A shower falling, as she spoke,''What,''said she, looking up,''do the elements weep for me?'' |
11889 | Again--''Whether she and one of her nieces Montague were to go to town, on an old chancery suit?'' |
11889 | Am I not worthy an answer, Miss Harlowe? |
11889 | An honour worth a king''s ransom; and what I would give-- what would I not give? |
11889 | And after all,( methinks thou asked,) art thou still resolved to repair, if reparation be put into thy power? |
11889 | And art thou not about to reform!--Won''t this consent of minds between thee and the widow,[ what age is she, Jack? |
11889 | And can not you say? |
11889 | And do you think, if she was thus thrown into a profound sleep, that she is the only lady that was ever taken at such an advantage? |
11889 | And have I half the obligation to her, that à � neas had to the Queen of Carthage? |
11889 | And how do you, Mr. Lovelace? |
11889 | And if no sake is dear enough to move her Harlowe- spirit in my favour, has she any title to the pity thou so pitifully art always bespeaking for her? |
11889 | And is it fair to punish me for what is my misfortune, and not my fault? |
11889 | And is she not answerable to God, to us, to you, and to all the world who knew her, for the abuse of such talents as she has abused? |
11889 | And must I still wait the return of another messenger? |
11889 | And never was bear so miserably baited as thy poor friend!--And for what?--why for the cruelty of Miss Harlowe: For have I committed any new offence? |
11889 | And now, Lord, what is my hope? |
11889 | And thou art a pretty fellow, art thou not? |
11889 | And what must you be, to be able to look her in the face? |
11889 | And what, returned he, shall be my inducement to take what I do at your hands?--Hay, Sir? |
11889 | And when I came to that sentence, praying for my reformation, perhaps-- Is that there? |
11889 | And whether that family would not exult over me, were I to marry their daughter, as if I dared not to do otherwise? |
11889 | And who can be entitled to this power, if YOU are not? |
11889 | And why should more be asked for me than I can partake of? |
11889 | And why? |
11889 | And will you be so good as to tell me, if I may have any hopes? |
11889 | And wo n''t you take it? |
11889 | And would not every one be able to assign the reason why Clarissa Harlowe chose solitude, and to sequester herself from the world? |
11889 | And would not my conscious eye confess my fault, whether the eyes of others accused me or not? |
11889 | And would you, my dear, in the like case[ whispering her] have yielded to entreaty-- would you have meant no more by the like exclamations? |
11889 | And yet you care not, as I see, to leave the house.--And so, you wo n''t go down, Miss Harlowe? |
11889 | Are you not-- are you not Mr. Belford, Sir? |
11889 | At last, I say; for whose heart have I hitherto moved? |
11889 | Ay, Mr. Hickman, that''s the question: I want to know if the lady says she had? |
11889 | But can there be a stronger instance in point than what the unaccountable resentments of such a lady as Miss Clarissa Harlowe afford us? |
11889 | But canst thou suppose that this admirable woman is not all, is not every thing with me? |
11889 | But dost thou not observe, what a strange, what an uncommon openness of heart reigns in this lady? |
11889 | But have you no things to send for from thence? |
11889 | But how does she know what love, in its flaming ardour, will stimulate men to do? |
11889 | But how much must I write for? |
11889 | But in that, must I not now sit brooding over my past afflictions, and mourning my faults till the hour of my release? |
11889 | But now, what is to be the end of this disgraceful violence? |
11889 | But recovering herself, Very well, said she-- why should not all be of a piece?--Why should not my wretchedness be complete? |
11889 | But say you, Sir, for I would not, methinks, have the wretch capable of this sordid baseness!--Say you, that he is innocent of this last wickedness? |
11889 | But what have you farther heard? |
11889 | But what thinkest thou is the second request she had to make to me? |
11889 | But who can supplant her? |
11889 | But who would spare so very absurd a wrong- head, as should bestow tinsel to make his deformity the more conspicuous? |
11889 | But why run I into length to such a poor thing? |
11889 | But why so? |
11889 | But why, said I, out of danger?--When can this be justly said of creatures, who hold by so uncertain a tenure? |
11889 | But you say there is a third thing you blame the lady for: May I ask what that is? |
11889 | But, Sir, had not the lady something given her to make her sleep? |
11889 | But, Sir, if there be any truth in the story, what is he? |
11889 | But, after all, it would be very whimsical, would it not, if all my plots and contrivances should end in wedlock? |
11889 | But, after your letter, what can be said? |
11889 | But, as you say, whom has it moved, that you wished to move? |
11889 | But, dear Madam, why wo n''t you send to your lodgings? |
11889 | But, in the letter you have, does she, without reserve, express her contrition? |
11889 | But, was that the case? |
11889 | Can I help her implacable spirit? |
11889 | Can I vow duty to one so wicked, and hazard my salvation by joining myself to so great a profligate, now I know him to be so? |
11889 | Can it be? |
11889 | Can nobody, joined in another gentleman, be applied to, who will see that so fine a creature is not ill used? |
11889 | Can she be any man''s but mine? |
11889 | Can there be any atonement for her crime? |
11889 | Can they by it purchase a sponge that will wipe out from the year the past fatal four months of my life? |
11889 | Canst thou not form some scheme to come at the copies of these letters, or the substance of them at least, and of that of her other correspondencies? |
11889 | Charlotte asked if I did not still seem inclinable to do the lady justice, if she would accept of me? |
11889 | Cot- so, Sir, I know you are deemed to be a man of wit: but may I not ask if these things sit not too light upon you? |
11889 | Could I ever have thought that my doting- piece, as every one called you, would have done thus? |
11889 | Dear Miss Lloyd, said he, with an air,( taking her hand as he quitted my mother''s,) tell me, tell me, is Miss Arabella Harlowe here? |
11889 | Did ever comedy end more happily than this long trial? |
11889 | Did the two ladies tell you who the gentleman was?--Or, did they say any more on the subject? |
11889 | Do you come hither to persuade me to hate prudery, as you call it, as much as you do? |
11889 | Do you flatter me, Sir? |
11889 | Do you think you are to stay here as long as you live? |
11889 | Do you use spectacles, Mr. Hickman? |
11889 | Does this not show, that revenge has very little sway in her mind; though she can retain so much proper resentment? |
11889 | Dost think she is not a little touched at times? |
11889 | Excuse me, Sir; but is it likely, that he who makes so free with his GOD, will scruple any thing that may serve his turn with his fellow creature? |
11889 | For who is it that would not give these two admirable persons to each other, were not his morals an objection? |
11889 | Had she any money about her? |
11889 | Has she in it no reflecting hints? |
11889 | Have you heard of him? |
11889 | Have you seen it, Sir? |
11889 | He then turned to my mother, resolved to be even with her too: Where, good Madam, could Miss Howe get all this spirit? |
11889 | Her late husband could not stand in the matrimonial contention of Who should? |
11889 | Hickman!--Who can account for the workings and ways of a passionate and offended woman? |
11889 | His whole broad face lifted up at me: Spectacles!--What makes you ask me such a question? |
11889 | How came it over with you? |
11889 | How did she like the people of the house? |
11889 | How is it possible to imagine, that a woman, who has all these consolations to reflect upon, will die of a broken heart? |
11889 | I am surprised, Sir!----Then, after all, you do n''t think of marrying Miss Harlowe!----After the hard usage---- What hard usage, Mr. Hickman? |
11889 | I asked, if they thought the Harlowes deserved any consideration from me? |
11889 | I hope, Mr. Hickman, nobody questions mine neither? |
11889 | I pity him at my heart; but can do him no good.--What consolation can I give him, either from his past life, or from his future prospects? |
11889 | I proceeded-- Have you no commission to employ me in; deserted as you are by all your friends; among strangers, though I doubt not, worthy people? |
11889 | I think your name is Belford? |
11889 | If she would give herself these airs in his life- time, what would she attempt to do after his death? |
11889 | Indeed, I wish they had thought fit to take other measures with me: But who shall judge for them? |
11889 | Is it not better that you make it up? |
11889 | Is it not enough to be despised and rejected? |
11889 | Is it possible she can do herself, her family, her friends, so much justice any other way, as by marrying me? |
11889 | Is not my condition greatly mended? |
11889 | Is your name Clarissa Harlowe, Madam? |
11889 | It seems she was at first displeased; yet withdrew her objection: but, after a pause, asked them, What she should do? |
11889 | Ladies may persuade themselves to any thing: but how can she answer for what other men would or would not have done in the same circumstances? |
11889 | Lady S.| Ay, Sir, what say you to this? |
11889 | Let me know what you have heard, Mr. Hickman? |
11889 | Lord M. What say you, Sir, to this? |
11889 | Miss D''Oily, upon his complimenting her, among a knot of ladies, asked him, in their hearing, how Miss Clarissa Harlowe did? |
11889 | Miss SALLY ANDERSON,[ You have heard of her, no doubt?] |
11889 | More than is absolutely necessary for my own peace? |
11889 | Moreover, has she it not in her power to disappoint, as much as she has been disappointed? |
11889 | My Lord told me, that he believed in his conscience there was not a viler fellow upon God''s earth than me.--What signifies mincing the matter? |
11889 | My sister''s letter, communicating this grace, is a severe one: but as she writes to me as from every body, how could I expect it to be otherwise? |
11889 | O wretches; what a sex is your''s!--Have you all one dialect? |
11889 | Only, as these consequences follow one another so closely, while they are new, how can I help being anew affected? |
11889 | Or will she be here? |
11889 | Pray read on, my Lord-- I told you how you would all admire her----or, shall I read? |
11889 | Prison, friend!--What dost thou call thy house? |
11889 | Prisoner, Sirs!--What-- How-- Why-- What have I done? |
11889 | She asked how long it would be before they returned? |
11889 | She asked if Mabell should attend her, till it were seen what her friends would do for her in discharge of the debt? |
11889 | She asked if they knew Mr. Lovelace? |
11889 | She asked, what was meant by this usage of her? |
11889 | She seems to be a person of condition; and, ill as she is, a very fine woman.----A single lady, I presume? |
11889 | She then spied thy villain-- O thou wretch, said she, where is thy vile master?--Am I again to be his prisoner? |
11889 | Should I not have had a bill delivered me? |
11889 | Should there not? |
11889 | Should you like to be at liberty? |
11889 | The divine Clarissa, Lovelace,--reduced to rejoice for a cup of cold water!--By whom reduced? |
11889 | The latter placing a confidence, the former none, in her man?--Then, whom else have I robbed? |
11889 | The matter now!----Why Lady Betty has two letters from Miss Harlowe, which have told us what''s the matter----Are all women alike with you? |
11889 | Their antiquity always made me reverence them: And how was it possible that thou couldest not, for that reason, if for no other, give them a perusal? |
11889 | Then there are broad freedoms( shall I call them?) |
11889 | Then turning to the officer, Mr. Rowland I think your name is? |
11889 | Then who can write of good persons, and of good subjects, and be capable of admiring them, and not be made serious for the time? |
11889 | Then, if it were, Mr. Hickman, you think she would? |
11889 | There is a widow who lodges in it[ have I not said so formerly?] |
11889 | There, Jack!--Wilt thou, or wilt thou not, take this for a letter? |
11889 | This looks like conscience; do n''t it, Belford? |
11889 | This will save thy word; and, as to mine, can she think worse of me than she does at present? |
11889 | Thou toldest me, that my punishments were but beginning-- Canst thou, O fatal prognosticator, cans thou tell me, where they will end? |
11889 | Unthinking eye- governed creatures!--Would not a little reflection teach us, that a man of merit must be a man of modesty, because a diffident one? |
11889 | Was not her sin committed equally against warning and the light of her own knowledge? |
11889 | Was she not a prisoner? |
11889 | Was that the case? |
11889 | Was the Doctor my friend? |
11889 | We are told he would be glad to marry you: But why, then, did he abandon you? |
11889 | Well, Madam, said I, with as much philosophy as I could assume; and may I ask-- Pray, what was your Ladyship''s answer? |
11889 | Well, Madam; and pray, may I be favoured with the lady''s other letter? |
11889 | Well, Sir, and I suppose what you have to charge me with is, that I was desirous to have all that, without marriage? |
11889 | Well, Sir, and you have no objections to marriage, I presume, as the condition of that reconciliation? |
11889 | Well, but after all, what need of her history to these women? |
11889 | Well, but, Miss Harlowe, cried Sally, do you think these forlorn airs pretty? |
11889 | Were it but in kindness to the people? |
11889 | Were they civil to her? |
11889 | What a punishment should this come out to be, upon myself too, that all this while I have been plundering my own treasury? |
11889 | What a shame to talk at this rate!--Did the lady set up a contention with you? |
11889 | What child could die in peace under a parent''s curse? |
11889 | What could I have done with her in any other place? |
11889 | What do you take our opinion of happiness to be? |
11889 | What friends has the lady? |
11889 | What has the lady said? |
11889 | What have I to do with the world? |
11889 | What heart, thinkest thou, can I have to write, when I have lost the only subject worth writing upon? |
11889 | What is it she scruples, Mr. Hickman? |
11889 | What is the light, what the air, what the town, what the country, what''s any thing, without thee? |
11889 | What is the sum? |
11889 | What once a woman hopes, in love matters, she always hopes, while there is room for hope: And are we not both single? |
11889 | What reasons have you to fear this, Sir? |
11889 | What signifies what the potations were, when the same end was in view? |
11889 | What, Sir, said she, can I do? |
11889 | What, pray, have you farther heard? |
11889 | When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise? |
11889 | When will the night be gone? |
11889 | Where is that? |
11889 | Wherefore is light given to her that is in misery; and life unto the bitter in soul? |
11889 | Who at this instant, ill as she is, not only encourages, but, in a manner, makes court to one of the most odious dogs that ever was seen? |
11889 | Who can be admitted to a place in it after Miss Clarissa Harlowe? |
11889 | Who does? |
11889 | Who ever said an anchoret was poor? |
11889 | Who longeth for death; but it cometh not; and diggeth for it more than for hid treasures? |
11889 | Who will ridicule a personal imperfection in one that seems conscious, that it is an imperfection? |
11889 | Whom else have I injured? |
11889 | Why is light given to one whose way is hid; and whom God hath hedged in? |
11889 | Why may not handsome fellows, thought I, like to be looked at, as well as handsome wenches? |
11889 | Why now, Cousin Charlotte, chucking her under the chin, would you have me tell you all that has passed between the lady and me? |
11889 | Why then should it not be the pious Lovelace, as well as the pious à � neas? |
11889 | Why then, they asked, would she not write to her friends, to pay Mrs. Sinclair''s demand? |
11889 | Why these double locks and bolts all on the outside, none on the in? |
11889 | Why these iron- barred windows, then? |
11889 | Why wo n''t you send to your lodgings for linen, at least? |
11889 | Why, indeed, the people did not prove so good as they should be.--What farther have you heard? |
11889 | Why, you do n''t think of tarrying here always? |
11889 | Will I be any woman''s but her''s? |
11889 | Will Miss Howe permit me to explain myself in person to her, Mr. Hickman? |
11889 | Will not Mrs. Sinclair, proceeded she, think my clothes a security, till they can be sold? |
11889 | Will this, Mr. Hickman, answer any part of the intention of this visit? |
11889 | Will you give me leave, my dear, to close this subject with one remark? |
11889 | Will you not write to any of your friends? |
11889 | Will you then, Sir, compel me to be beholden to you? |
11889 | Wo n''t it strike out an intimacy between ye, that may enable thee to gratify me in this particular? |
11889 | Words are wind; but deeds are mind: What signifies your cursed quibbling, Bob?--Say plainly, if she will have you, will you have her? |
11889 | Would I not repair the evils I have made her suffer?'' |
11889 | Would I pretend to say, I would now marry the lady, if she would have me? |
11889 | Would not the look of every creature, who beheld me, appear as a reproach to me? |
11889 | Would she accept of any money? |
11889 | Would the pious à � neas, thinkest thou, have done such a piece of justice by Dido, had she lived? |
11889 | Would you have me and Miss Horton dine in this filthy bed- room? |
11889 | Yes, yes, indeed, ready to sink, my name was Clarissa Harlowe:--but it is now Wretchedness!----Lord be merciful to me, what is to come next? |
11889 | Yet do not honest protestants pronounce her pious too?--And call her particularly their Queen? |
11889 | Yet to forbid you to love the dear naughty creature, who can? |
11889 | You amaze me, Miss Martin!--What language do you talk in?--Bilk my lodgings?--What is that? |
11889 | You say her heart is half- broken: Is it to be wondered at? |
11889 | You see, Mr. Hickman, something of me.--Do you think I am in jest, or in earnest? |
11889 | You will allow, that a very faulty person may see his errors; and when he does, and owns them, and repents, should he not be treated mercifully? |
11889 | You would therefore heighten their severity, and make yourself enemies besides, if you were to come to me-- Don''t you see you would? |
11889 | Zounds, Jack, what shall I do now? |
11889 | and could the cursed devils of her own sex, who visited this suffering angel, see her, and leave her, in so d----d a nook? |
11889 | and do they know that their unkindness will perhaps shorten my date; so that their favour, if ever they intend to grant it, may come too late? |
11889 | and how much reason have I to say, If I justify myself, mine own heart shall condemn me: if I say I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse?'' |
11889 | and to refuse admittance to those I like not? |
11889 | and would I not have re- instated myself in her favour upon her own terms, if I could? |
11889 | and,''Whether they brought to town from thence the young creature whom they visited?'' |
11889 | can you truly say that he is? |
11889 | for can they by their pity restore to me my lost reputation? |
11889 | for so long a time as you were at Mrs. Sinclair''s? |
11889 | had she those tricks already? |
11889 | men, what mean you? |
11889 | of encouraging another lover? |
11889 | to engage to transcribe for her some parts of my letters written to thee in confidence? |
11889 | was it not, my dear? |
11889 | what a fine time of it would the heads of families have? |
11889 | what would become of the peace of the world, if all women should take it into their heads to follow her example? |
11889 | why didst thou not urge her to explain what she once hoped? |
11889 | why push I so weak an adversary? |
11889 | with what indifference shall I look upon all the assembly at the Colonel''s, my beloved in my ideal eye, and engrossing my whole heart? |
9296 | ''But if she should be blameless, Madam, how does your own supposition condemn them?'' |
9296 | ''How will my son, how will my nephew, take this or that measure? |
9296 | ''Let me ask you, my dear, said she, how you now keep your account of the disposition of your time? |
9296 | ''What did the man mean, she wondered? |
9296 | ( But what have I done to myself, to make such a supposition?) |
9296 | ** What is it, as she says, that she has not sacrificed to peace?--Yet, has she by her sacrifices always found the peace she has deserved to find? |
9296 | --What could be the reading he has been said to be master of, to wonder, as he did, at these observations? |
9296 | --for who danced, who sung, who touched the string, whatever the instrument, with a better grace than thy friend? |
9296 | A value that can have no merit with the unhappy object of it, because it is attended with effects so grievous to her? |
9296 | A wrong head may be convinced, may have a right turn given it: but who is able to give a heart, if a heart be wanting? |
9296 | Again interrupted!--Am I to be questioned, and argued with? |
9296 | Am not I to live with the man? |
9296 | And do they not make use of your own generosity to oppress you? |
9296 | And even in this point you must be mistaken: For, would a prudent man wish to marry one who has not a heart to give? |
9296 | And have I any encouragement to follow too implicitly the example which my mother sets of meekness, and resignedness to the wills of others? |
9296 | And have you not before now said, that nothing is so penetrating as the eye of a lover who has vanity? |
9296 | And hence, Sir, retorted I, your unbrotherly reflections upon me? |
9296 | And how shall I look upon my awful judges? |
9296 | And how was this to be done, after such a declaration from both my uncles? |
9296 | And is it not your right? |
9296 | And is it you? |
9296 | And now, my dear, let me ask you, Have I come up to your expectation? |
9296 | And so I will, said she-- Did you not bewitch my grandfather? |
9296 | And so in the royal style( for am I not likely to be thy king and thy emperor in the great affair before us?) |
9296 | And so, Clary, it is nothing to him, or to me, is it, that our sister shall disgrace her whole family? |
9296 | And this, said I, is all I have to hope for from my Mamma? |
9296 | And what less did the world think of me now, he asked, than that I was confined that I might not? |
9296 | And what my motive, dost thou ask? |
9296 | And what was this, more than I had offered before? |
9296 | And what, Clary, mean you by that? |
9296 | And when that reason offers, is it not just to express one''s self accordingly? |
9296 | And while he has any, can we be easy or free from his insults? |
9296 | And who says Lovelace wants vanity? |
9296 | And who, besides, can bear to be made the dupe of such low cunning, operating with such high and arrogant passions? |
9296 | And why do n''t you go on, Clary? |
9296 | And why may I not think that I am now put upon a proper exercise of it? |
9296 | And why was it, do you think? |
9296 | And why? |
9296 | And will you give up nothing? |
9296 | And yet, my dear, this may be his usual manner of behaviour to our sex; for had not my sister at first all his reverence? |
9296 | And yet, why say I, I am half ashamed?--Is it not a glory to love her whom every one who sees her either loves, or reveres, or both? |
9296 | Are you in earnest? |
9296 | As to your question, Why your elder sister may not be first provided for? |
9296 | At last, I asked, if it were his pleasure that I should pour him out another dish? |
9296 | At worst, will he confine me prisoner to my chamber? |
9296 | Ay, Clary, put in my sister, what say you to Mr. Wyerley? |
9296 | Bless me, said I to myself, what a sister have I!--How have I deserved this? |
9296 | But I more wonder, how he came to have a notion of meeting me in this place? |
9296 | But I suppose then you will have no objection to see and converse, on a civil footing, with Mr. Solmes-- as your father''s friend, or so? |
9296 | But are not these orders a tacit confession, that they think his own merit will not procure him respect? |
9296 | But can it be, that such a lady, such a sister, such a wife, such a mother, has no influence in her own family? |
9296 | But do you think I will rob my sister of her humble servant? |
9296 | But does he not avow his passion? |
9296 | But how can you expect, when there must be a concession on one side, that it should be on theirs? |
9296 | But if I could not, how can you expect to prevail? |
9296 | But is it not a confounded thing to be in love with one, who is the daughter, the sister, the niece, of a family, I must eternally despise? |
9296 | But is it not a sad thing, I repeat, to be obliged to stand in opposition to the will of such a mother? |
9296 | But let me examine myself: Is not vanity, or secret love of praise, a principal motive with me at the bottom?--Ought I not to suspect my own heart? |
9296 | But now I think of it, suppose you are the reader at your pen than he-- You will make the more useful wife to him; wo n''t you? |
9296 | But pray, is not this estate our estate, as we may say? |
9296 | But supposing it to be true that all his vacant nightly hours are employed in writing, what can be his subjects? |
9296 | But that it could be for Solmes, how should it enter into my head? |
9296 | But then recollecting myself, is there not more in it, said I, than the result of a vein so naturally lively? |
9296 | But this is a point you will not permit me to expatiate upon: pardon me therefore, and I have done.--Yet, why should I say, pardon me? |
9296 | But was it not a little hard upon me, to be kept from blazing on a Sunday?--And to be hindered from my charitable ostentations? |
9296 | But what call you dutiful? |
9296 | But what is person, Clary, with one of your prudence, and your heart disengaged? |
9296 | But what shall I do with this Lovelace? |
9296 | But what then can I plead for a palliation to myself of my mother''s sufferings on my account? |
9296 | But where is Hannah? |
9296 | But whither roves my pen? |
9296 | But who can be worthy of a Clarissa? |
9296 | But whoever was in fault, self being judge? |
9296 | But will it be just, will it be honest, to marry a man I can not endure? |
9296 | But will not t''other man flame out, and roar most horribly, upon the snatching from his paws a prey he thought himself sure of? |
9296 | But''tis a cursed deceiver; for it has many a time imposed upon its master-- Master, did I say? |
9296 | But, Sir, if I am prepossessed, what has Mr. Solmes to hope for?--Why should he persevere? |
9296 | But, pray now-- is it saying so much, when one, who has no very particular regard to any man, says, there are some who are preferable to others? |
9296 | But, to pass that by-- so much engaged!--How much, my dear?--Shall I infer? |
9296 | But, why, dearest Madam, why am I, the youngest, to be precipitated into a state, that I am very far from wishing to enter into with any body? |
9296 | Can I be honest, if I give a hope that I can not confirm? |
9296 | Can not I speak with the poor girl? |
9296 | Can you think such usage, and to such a young lady, is to be borne? |
9296 | Can you wonder, then, that they should embrace the first opportunity that offered, to endeavour to bring you down to their level? |
9296 | Contrive it, did I say? |
9296 | Could any thing be pleasing to him, that you did not say or do? |
9296 | Could you, my dear, have shewn more spirit? |
9296 | Did not this deserve a severe return? |
9296 | Did not your father himself some days ago tell you, he would be obeyed? |
9296 | Did you think I could scold, my dear? |
9296 | Do I want any thing of any body for my own sake?--Does my brother John?--Well, then, Cousin Clary, what would you be at, as I may say? |
9296 | Do n''t you remember how he stared at the following trite observations, which every moralist could have furnished him with? |
9296 | Do you hear, sister Clary? |
9296 | Do you justify duelling at all? |
9296 | Do you so understand the license you have, Miss? |
9296 | Do you think they can use you worse than they do? |
9296 | Does he believe, that the disgrace which I supper on his account, will give him a merit with me? |
9296 | Does not his own sister live unhappily, for want of a little of his superfluities? |
9296 | Does that( pert cousin) make it out that he does not love you? |
9296 | Dreadful alternative-- But is not my sincerity, is not the integrity of my heart, concerned in the answer? |
9296 | For did you ever give up any thing? |
9296 | For me, do you mean, Clary? |
9296 | For must not each of you, by the constitutions of your family, marry to be still richer? |
9296 | Have I not made a very fair proposal as to Mr. Lovelace? |
9296 | Have I not told you there is no receding; that the honour as well as the interest of the family is concerned? |
9296 | Have we not all an interest in it, and a prior right, if right were to have taken place? |
9296 | Have you not refused as many as have been offered to you? |
9296 | Have you the least doubt about what must be the issue of this correspondence, if continued? |
9296 | He an honest man? |
9296 | He is allowed to be brave: Who ever knew a brave man, if a brave man of sense, an universally base man? |
9296 | His a good mind, Madam? |
9296 | How can I tell it you? |
9296 | How can you tell me your heart is free? |
9296 | How can your Anna Howe have such a thought?--What then shall we call it? |
9296 | How comes this man to know so well all our foibles? |
9296 | How dare a perverse girl take these liberties with relations so very respectable, and whom she highly respects? |
9296 | How many hours in the twenty- four do you devote to your needle? |
9296 | How many to letter- writing? |
9296 | How many to your prayers? |
9296 | How shall I stand the questions of some, the set surliness of others, the returning love of one or two? |
9296 | How so, I asked him, when that can not wound without the application? |
9296 | How then can she be so impenetrable? |
9296 | I am afraid you will condemn my warmth: But does not the occasion require it? |
9296 | I asked her once, if she were pleased with the tea? |
9296 | I asked him, If he valued himself upon having a head better turned than theirs for such works, as he called them? |
9296 | I besought her to stay: One favour, but one favour, dearest Madam, said I, give me leave to beg of you-- What would the girl? |
9296 | I made no reply; for what could I say? |
9296 | I must now go down, and make a report, that you are resolved never to have Mr. Solmes-- Must I?--Consider, my dear Miss Clary-- Must I? |
9296 | I was moving to go up-- And will you go up, Clary? |
9296 | I went on, supplicating for my mother''s favourable report: Nothing but invincible dislike, said I-- What would the girl be at, interrupted my mother? |
9296 | If it were, to whom could I appeal with effect against a husband? |
9296 | If you do, Madam, can you think confinement and ill usage is the way to prevent the apprehended rashness? |
9296 | If you really value me, as my friends would make me believe, and as you have declared you do, must it not be a mean and selfish value? |
9296 | If your estate is convenient for him, what then? |
9296 | Is any body else? |
9296 | Is it you, my meek sister Clary? |
9296 | Is my presence an exception to the bold creature? |
9296 | Is she not for ever obliged( as she was pleased to hint to me) to be of the forbearing side? |
9296 | Is the want of reward, or the want even of a grateful acknowledgement, a reason for us to dispense with what we think our duty? |
9296 | It is needless to say any thing to you, who have so sincere any antipathy to him, to strengthen your dislike: Yet, who can resist her own talents? |
9296 | It was rather a mark of his affection, than any advantage to me: For, do I either seek or wish to be independent? |
9296 | It would be an affront to your own judgment, if you did not: For do you not ask my advice? |
9296 | Let me ask you, child, if you will give your pretty proposal in writing? |
9296 | May I be permitted to mention an expedient?--''If I am to be watched, banished, and confined; suppose, Sir, it were to be at your house?'' |
9296 | May I not see the honest creature, and pay her her wages? |
9296 | May I, Madam, be permitted to expostulate?-- To what purpose expostulate with me, Clarissa? |
9296 | May not my everlasting happiness be the sacrifice? |
9296 | May not this strange method rather harden than convince? |
9296 | May not, however, so deep a sufferer be permitted to speak out? |
9296 | My extravagancies, Bella!--But did my father ever give me any thing he did not give you? |
9296 | No, not to Miss Howe, Madam, tauntingly: for have you not acknowledged, that Lovelace is a favourite there? |
9296 | Norton!--[You may guess who said this] Will she, or will she not, comply with her parents''will? |
9296 | Not to Miss Howe? |
9296 | Now seest thou not, how many good ends this contrivance answers? |
9296 | O Madam, what can I say to questions so indulgently put? |
9296 | O thou determined girl!--But say-- Speak out-- Are you resolved to stand in opposition to us all, in a point our hearts are set upon? |
9296 | Pray, my dear, be so good as to tell me, What man of a great and clear estate would think of that eldest sister, while the younger were single? |
9296 | Pretty mopsy- eyed soul!--was her expression!--And was it willing to think it had still a brother and sister? |
9296 | Shall I conduct your Ladyship down? |
9296 | Shall I not therefore be allowed to judge for myself, whether I can, or can not, live happily with him? |
9296 | Shall I, Clary, said she, shall I tell your father that these prohibitions are as unnecessary as I hoped they would be? |
9296 | She asked me, upon my turning from her, if she should not say any thing below of my compliances? |
9296 | She desired to be informed, in the name of every body, was her word, what I was determined upon? |
9296 | She owned, that the man was not the most desirable of men; and that he had not the happiest appearance: But what, said she, is person in a man? |
9296 | She, kindly saluting me, said, Why this distance to your aunt, my dear, who loves you so well? |
9296 | Should it be ever so unhappily, will it be prudence to complain or appeal? |
9296 | Should not one fly the man who is but suspected of such a one? |
9296 | Should not they make a common cause of it, as I may say, a cause of sex, on such occasions as the present? |
9296 | So I shall suffer: And in what will the rash man have benefited himself, or mended his prospects? |
9296 | So turning from me, she spoke with quickness, Whither now, Clary Harlowe? |
9296 | So we think, whatever you think: and whose thoughts are to be preferred? |
9296 | Solmes?--Rather than give me hope? |
9296 | Solmes?--Will not that refusal be to give him hope? |
9296 | Tell me why you call it a reflection?--What did I say? |
9296 | Tell me, Bella, if my mamma will condescend to see me? |
9296 | Tell me, Clary, and tell me truly-- Do you not continue to correspond with Mr. Lovelace? |
9296 | That you know your duty, and will not offer to controvert his will? |
9296 | The good woman asked, Whether she was permitted to expostulate with them upon the occasion, before she came up to me? |
9296 | The object so meritorious, who can doubt the reality of his professions? |
9296 | Then addressing himself to me: And how do you find it, Miss? |
9296 | Then he will always be in expectation while you are single: and we are to live on at this rate( are we?) |
9296 | Then you do n''t think him so? |
9296 | This was not ungenerously said: But what will not these men say to obtain belief, and a power over one? |
9296 | Thou art a provoking creature-- But what say you to two or three duels of that wretch''s? |
9296 | Thou art curious to know, if I have not started a new game? |
9296 | Thus are my imputed good qualities to be made my punishment; and I am to wedded to a monster--[ Astonishing!--Can this, Clarissa, be from you? |
9296 | Was not this very intimidating, my dear? |
9296 | Was not this very spiteful, my dear? |
9296 | We all, indeed, once thought your temper soft and amiable: but why was it? |
9296 | Well but, methinks you say, what is all this to the purpose? |
9296 | Were even your brother in fault, as that fault can not be conquered, is a sister to carry on a correspondence that shall endanger her brother? |
9296 | What a name have you got, at a less expense? |
9296 | What an unhappy situation is that which obliges her, in her own defence as it were, to expose their failings? |
9296 | What can I do, Madam?--What can I do? |
9296 | What can I do? |
9296 | What can I say? |
9296 | What could I do but weep? |
9296 | What did I think of Mr. Wyerley? |
9296 | What did you do, that we did not endeavour to do?--And what was all this for? |
9296 | What encouragement for duty is this?--Have I not loved her as well as ever you did? |
9296 | What excuse can be made for his haughty and morose temper? |
9296 | What is the matter with Hannah? |
9296 | What is to follow? |
9296 | What must have been her treatment, to be thus subjugated, as I may call it? |
9296 | What must that cause be that will not bear being argued upon? |
9296 | What must we think of any one of it, who would not promote the good of the whole? |
9296 | What reason then, ungenerous girl, can you have for arguing with me thus, but because you think from my indulgence to you, you may? |
9296 | What say you, my love? |
9296 | What shall I get by it, let things go as they will? |
9296 | What then is this narrow selfishness that reigns in us, but relationship remembered against relationship forgot? |
9296 | What think you was the return? |
9296 | What tho''his mighty soul his grief contains? |
9296 | What will he say to it? |
9296 | What would you say, were I to treat you as Miss Harlowe''s father and mother treat her? |
9296 | What''s all that to an estate in possession, and left you with such distinctions, as gave you a reputation of greater value than the estate itself? |
9296 | What, Madam, to give him hope?--To give hope to Mr. Solmes? |
9296 | What, Miss, will you please to have for breakfast? |
9296 | What, but ringing my changes upon the same bells, and neither receding nor advancing one tittle? |
9296 | What, is this you? |
9296 | What, my dear, if her meekness should not be rewarded? |
9296 | What, think you, makes me bear Hickman near me, but that the man is humble, and knows and keeps his distance? |
9296 | When I returned, my uncle Antony asked me, how I should like Mr. Lovelace? |
9296 | When so little ceremony is made with me, why should I not speak out?--Did he not seek to kill the other, if he could have done it? |
9296 | When your grandfather left his estate to you, though his three sons, and a grandson, and your elder sister, were in being, we all acquiesced: and why? |
9296 | Who can command or foresee events? |
9296 | Who can not esteem him? |
9296 | Who told you Mr. Solmes can not read and write? |
9296 | Who, indeed, as you say, if this be so, would marry, that can live single? |
9296 | Who, that has once trespassed with them, ever recovered his virtue? |
9296 | Why not? |
9296 | Why should I be deprived of all comfort, but that which the hope that it would be a very short one, would afford me? |
9296 | Why should not there be something in blood in the human creature, as well as in the ignobler animals? |
9296 | Why will these wise parents, by saying too much against the persons they dislike, put one upon defending them? |
9296 | Why, I pray you, good Sir, should I be made miserable for life? |
9296 | Why, Niece, if there be not any such hopes, I presume you do n''t think yourself absolved from the duty due from a child to her parents? |
9296 | Why, as I often say to myself, was such a man as this Solmes fixed upon? |
9296 | Will he bear, do you think, to be thus dialogued with? |
9296 | Will he deny me the visits of my dearest friend, and forbid me to correspond with her? |
9296 | Will he set a servant over me, with license to insult me? |
9296 | Will he take from me the mistressly management, which I had not faultily discharged? |
9296 | Will not the least shadow of the hope you just now demanded from me, be driven into absolute and sudden certainty? |
9296 | Will not what I have offered be accepted? |
9296 | Will she, or will she not, be Mrs. Solmes? |
9296 | Will you forgive me; and let me find a sister in you, as I am sorry, if you had reason to think me unsisterly in what I have said? |
9296 | Will you go down, and humble that stubborn spirit of yours to your mamma? |
9296 | Would you have me, Madam, make him desperate? |
9296 | Wyerley''s again?--or whose? |
9296 | Yet tell me, are your affections engaged to this man? |
9296 | Yet what did you say, that we could not have said? |
9296 | Yet why should Shorey( except officiously to please her principals) make a report in his disfavour? |
9296 | You are going to question me, I suppose, why your sister is not thought of for Mr. Solmes? |
9296 | You ask, Why may not your brother be first engaged in wedlock? |
9296 | You know your father has made it a point; and did he ever give up one he thought he had a right to carry? |
9296 | Your aunt Hervey, you say,* has told you: Why must I ask you to let me know them, when you condescend to ask my advice on the occasion? |
9296 | [ Are not all estates stewardships, my dear?] |
9296 | [ bristling up to me]--Tell me what you mean by that reflection? |
9296 | [ changing her sneering tone to an imperious one] But do you think you can humble yourself to go down to your mamma? |
9296 | [ following me, and taking my struggling hand] What? |
9296 | let me repeat: Is that a small point, my dear Uncle, to give up? |
9296 | my love!--But what shall we do about the terms Mr. Solmes offers? |
9296 | not vouchsafe to answer me? |
9296 | repeated my aunt-- So, Miss Clary, I see how it is-- I will go down--[Miss Harlowe, shall I follow you?] |
9296 | that gave it you before us all?--Well then, ought we not to have a choice who shall have it in marriage with you? |
9296 | turn your back upon me too!--Shall I bring up your mamma to you, love? |
9296 | when I love you, as never woman loved another? |
9296 | when your concerns are my concerns? |
9296 | when your honour is my honour? |
9296 | who can be patient under such treatment? |
9798 | ''As to my charge upon him of unpoliteness and uncontroulableness-- What[ he asks] can he say? |
9798 | ''What ails the perverse creature?'' |
9798 | ***** This man have more terror at seeing me, than I can have at seeing him!--How can that be? |
9798 | A little interruption.--What is breakfast to the subject I am upon? |
9798 | ANGRY!--What should I be angry for? |
9798 | After what I had resolved upon, as by my former, what shall I write? |
9798 | All this violence from you, Miss Clary? |
9798 | And am I to appear before them all? |
9798 | And from whom arises that subject, I pray you? |
9798 | And has he not promised temper and acquiescence, on the supposition of a change in my mind? |
9798 | And have I, but on your account, reason to value what they think? |
9798 | And how do you now, Mr. Hickman? |
9798 | And how must this insolence of his, aggravated as my brother is able to aggravate it, exasperate them against me? |
9798 | And if not, whether she should not marry him as soon as possible? |
9798 | And if not,''Whether I should not marry him as soon as possible?'' |
9798 | And if not,''Whether you should not marry him as soon as possible?'' |
9798 | And is a brother, an only brother, of so little consideration with you, as this comes to? |
9798 | And is it worthy of your generosity[ I ask you, my dear, is it?] |
9798 | And know you any of the particulars of those sad stories? |
9798 | And my brother''s insolent question comes frequently in, Whether I am not writing a history of my sufferings? |
9798 | And now, my dear, how is it with you? |
9798 | And now, my dear, what shall I conclude upon? |
9798 | And tell me, what argument can you urge, that this true declaration answers not before- hand? |
9798 | And then he fared the better from her, as he always does, for faring worse from me: for there was, How do you now, Sir? |
9798 | And this is your answer, Niece? |
9798 | And this, my dear, is all that Mr. Hickman could pick up about him: And is it not enough to determine such a mind as yours, if not already determined? |
9798 | And what concession she had gained from her dear child to merit this tenderness? |
9798 | And what must that child be, who prefers the rake to a father? |
9798 | And what need you care? |
9798 | And what occasion for the promise, if he had not faults, and those very great ones, to reform? |
9798 | And what then, Brother? |
9798 | And what workman will throw away a sharp tool, because it may cut his fingers? |
9798 | And when you are so well entitled to give them? |
9798 | And who knows but they may have a still earlier day in their intention, than that which will too soon come? |
9798 | And why do they blame her?--Why? |
9798 | And will the pious Clarissa fib to her mamma? |
9798 | And would not you bear with her?--Don''t you love her( what though with another sort of love?) |
9798 | And would you not wish me to judge of your love for her by my own? |
9798 | And would you, in resentment, shew her and the world, that you can voluntarily rush into the highest error that any of our sex can be guilty of? |
9798 | And yet is there any other way than to do as I have done, if I would avoid Solmes? |
9798 | And yet, why was I so affected; since I may be said to have been given up to the cruelty of my brother and sister for many days past? |
9798 | And, besides, can any thing worse be said of Mr. Lovelace, than I have heard said for several months past? |
9798 | And, depend upon it, he will not suffer them quietly to carry you to your uncle''s: And whose must you be, if he succeeds in taking you from them? |
9798 | And, pray, do n''t I bear a great deal from her?--And why? |
9798 | And, rally me as you will, pray tell me fairly, my dear, would it not have had such an effect upon you? |
9798 | And, to see how familiar these men- wretches grow upon a smile, what an awe they are struck into when we frown; who would not make them stand off? |
9798 | Are you, who refuse ever body''s advice, to prescribe a husband to your sister? |
9798 | As how, Betty? |
9798 | As how, Miss Dolly?--Did she not explain herself?--As how, my dear? |
9798 | As it was-- Sir, said I, saw you not some of the servants?--Could not one of them have come in before you? |
9798 | At his going away-- How can I leave you here by yourself, my dear? |
9798 | At last, I asked him, if it were not thought strange I should be so long absent from church? |
9798 | At my expense?--At the price of all my happiness, Sir? |
9798 | Besides, What discredit have I to fear by such a step? |
9798 | Besides, did I not reserve a power of receding, as I saw fit? |
9798 | But for that, I know not what I might do: For who can tell what will come next? |
9798 | But how can we resolve to see you? |
9798 | But if a boisterous temper, when under obligation, is to be thus allowed for, what, when the tables are turned, will it expect? |
9798 | But is not hers the disgrace, more than yours? |
9798 | But is there not more danger from a sharp tool than from a blunt one? |
9798 | But let this be as it will, shall I tell you, how, after all his offences, he may creep in with you again? |
9798 | But tell me, if you can, Is it resolved that I shall be carried to my uncle Antony''s on Thursday? |
9798 | But what a giddy creature shall I be thought, if I pursue the course to which this letter must lead me? |
9798 | But what can be said in the case of an aversion so perfectly sincere? |
9798 | But what condescensions, even from my father, can induce me to make such a sacrifice as is expected from me? |
9798 | But what is the other, Madam? |
9798 | But what would you have said at EIGHTEEN, is the question? |
9798 | But when she was asked, What concession she had brought you to? |
9798 | But who knows what may be the result of my being carried to my uncle Antony''s? |
9798 | But who would wish to drain off or dry up a refreshing current, because it now- and- then puts us to some little inconvenience by its over- flowings? |
9798 | But why should I, who have such real evils to contend with, regard imaginary ones? |
9798 | But why should you, by the nobleness of your mind, throw reproaches upon the rest of the world? |
9798 | But will it not exasperate he more against me? |
9798 | But will you receive, shall you be permitted to receive my letters, after what I have done? |
9798 | But would you expect favours, and grant none? |
9798 | But you tell me, that, in order to gain time, I must palliate; that I must seem to compromise with my friends: But how palliate? |
9798 | But, after all, should I, ought I to meet him? |
9798 | But, how, on this revocation of my appointment, shall I be able to pacify him? |
9798 | But, if it be a rash thing,[ returned she,] should she do it? |
9798 | By whom, Betty? |
9798 | By whose order? |
9798 | Can not such purity in pursuit, in view, restrain him? |
9798 | Can nothing be thought of? |
9798 | Can you stand his displeasure, on first seeing the dear creature who has given him and all of us so much disturbance? |
9798 | Did he learn this infamous practice of corrupting the servants of other families at the French court, where he resided a good while? |
9798 | Did you ever hear of such perverseness, Madam? |
9798 | Do n''t they already think that your non- compliance with their odious measures is owing a good deal to my advice? |
9798 | Do n''t you know where it is written, That soft answers turn away wrath? |
9798 | Do n''t you see how crooked some of my lines are? |
9798 | Do n''t you see, my dear Miss Howe, how they are all determined?--Have I not reason to dread next Tuesday? |
9798 | Do not use those freedoms naturally arise from the subject before us? |
9798 | Do the servants, who, as you observe, see her skittish airs, disrespect you for them? |
9798 | Do they not act in character?--And to whom? |
9798 | Do they not, at such times, look concerned for you? |
9798 | Do you beat me, Bella? |
9798 | Do you call this beating you? |
9798 | Do you then please that I shall hear it? |
9798 | Do you think I could not be permitted to tarry one week longer? |
9798 | Does it not, moreover, manifest a firmness of mind, in an unhappy person, to keep hope alive? |
9798 | Does she suspect that your fervent friendship may lead you to a small indiscretion? |
9798 | Does the man think he is so secure of me, that having appointed, he need not give himself any further concern about me till the very moment? |
9798 | Either, said she, the lady must be thought to have very violent inclinations[ And what nice young creature would have that supposed?] |
9798 | For God''s sake, what, Sir?--How came God''s sake, and your sake, I pray you, to be the same? |
9798 | For have I given the man encouragement sufficient to ground these threats upon? |
9798 | For is not this to suppose myself ever in the right; and all who do not act as I would have them act, perpetually in the wrong? |
9798 | For see you not how irresistible the waves of affliction come tumbling down upon me? |
9798 | Go in before me, child, said Bella,[ vexed to see her concern for me,] with thy sharp face like a new moon: What dost thou cry for? |
9798 | Has what he has said of me, Madam, convinced you of Mr. Lovelace''s baseness? |
9798 | Have I, do you think, a desire to double and treble my own fault in the eye of the world? |
9798 | Have I, or have I not, suffered or borne enough? |
9798 | Have they not prohibited our correspondence upon that very surmise? |
9798 | Have you any thing you are afraid should be seen by your mother? |
9798 | Have you no eyes for this side of the chariot? |
9798 | Have you no new fetch for your uncle Antony? |
9798 | Have you not a Thomas a Kempis, Sister? |
9798 | How can I consent to see him again, when yesterday''s interview was interpreted by you, Madam, as well as by every other, as an encouragement to him? |
9798 | How can I tell, Miss? |
9798 | How can we, when you are resolved not to do what we are resolved you shall do? |
9798 | How can you be so unmoved yourself, yet so able to move every body else? |
9798 | How can you say advanced? |
9798 | How could I avoid making these strong declarations, the man in presence? |
9798 | How could you send such a letter to Mr. Solmes? |
9798 | How do you now, as my mother says to Mr. Hickman, when her pert daughter has made him look sorrowful? |
9798 | How much easier to bear the temporary persecutions I labour under, because temporary, than to resolve to be such a man''s for life? |
9798 | How often, my dear, have you and I endeavoured to detect and censure this partial spirit in others? |
9798 | How seem to compromise? |
9798 | How shall I bear to hear such a creature talk of love to me? |
9798 | How shall I know that? |
9798 | How shall those beauties be valued, which can not be comprehended? |
9798 | How they all gazed upon one another!--But could I be less peremptory before the man? |
9798 | I asked if this was her own insolence, or her young mistress''s observation? |
9798 | I asked my aunt, If it were necessary, that the gentleman should be present? |
9798 | I asked what she would do, were she in my case? |
9798 | I believe he is, Miss-- Would you have him sent for back? |
9798 | I put it to her, in the most earnest manner, to tell me, whether I might not obtain the favour of a fortnight''s respite? |
9798 | I think they seemed to be moving when Mr. Solmes gave me his orders.--But what answer shall I carry to the''squire? |
9798 | I think you have answered Solmes''s letter, as I should have answered it.--Will you not compliment me and yourself at once, by saying, that was right? |
9798 | I to purchase their happiness by the forfeiture of my own? |
9798 | I will hear all that I am to hear; that it may be over now and for ever.--You will go with me, Betty? |
9798 | If I could, did I say? |
9798 | If not, what right have you to treat me thus; and to procure me to be treated as I have been for so long a time past? |
9798 | If persons pretending to principle, bear not their testimony against unprincipled actions, what check can they have? |
9798 | If she be foolish-- what is that owing to?--Is it not to her wit? |
9798 | If the world is unjust or rash, in one man''s case, why may it not be so in another''s? |
9798 | If, Sir, it be suspected, that I have set my heart upon any other, why is Mr. Solmes to give himself any further trouble about me? |
9798 | In short, to make my sake God''s sake, in the sense of Mr. Solmes''s pitiful plea to me? |
9798 | In the first place, let me ask you, my dear, supposing I were inclined to follow your advice, Whom have I to support me in my demand? |
9798 | Is Mr. Solmes gone, Betty? |
9798 | Is it such a mighty matter for a young woman to give up her inclinations to oblige her friends? |
9798 | Is not this cause enough for me to ground a resentment upon, sufficient to justify me for accompanying you; the friendship between us so well known? |
9798 | Is not this usage enough to provoke a rashness never before thought of? |
9798 | Is there, however, no medium? |
9798 | It begins thus: Honoured Sir-- I beg your pardon, Sir, said I: but what, pray, is the intent of reading this letter to me? |
9798 | It may be fancy only on her side; but parents look deeper: And will not Miss Clarissa Harlowe give up her fancy to her parents''judgment? |
9798 | It will be farther tried; of that I am convinced; and what will be their next measure, who can divine? |
9798 | LOVELACE?'' |
9798 | LOVELACE?'' |
9798 | Let me ask you, If something would have been done, had you been more gently used, than you seem to think you have been? |
9798 | Madam!--How long are we to be at this distance, Clary? |
9798 | Madam, and shaking your head so significantly? |
9798 | Must I not be his, whatever,( on seeing him in a nearer light,) I should find him out to be? |
9798 | Must I, my sweet Cousin? |
9798 | My aunt looked in first; O my dear, said she, are you there? |
9798 | My friends themselves, he says, expect that I will do myself what he calls, this justice: why else do they confine me? |
9798 | My uncle came to me, looking up also to my face, and down to my feet: and is it possible this can be you? |
9798 | Now it is, Why, Miss, do n''t you look up your things? |
9798 | O my beloved creature!--But are not your very excuses confessions of excuses inexcusable? |
9798 | Or shall I embark for Leghorn in my way to my cousin? |
9798 | Pardon me, Madam, I do n''t say you have a hand in it.--But, my dearest Aunt, tell me, Will not my mother be present at this dreaded interview? |
9798 | Questions whether she will not rather choose to go off with one of her own sex than with Lovelace? |
9798 | See you not in her passiveness, what boisterous spirits can obtain from gentler, merely by teasing and ill- nature? |
9798 | Shall I be a pedant, Miss, for this word? |
9798 | Shall I tell you some of the matters charged against him?--shall I, my dear? |
9798 | Shall I tell you-- but why should I? |
9798 | She loves dearly to have weddings go forward!--Who knows, whose turn will be next? |
9798 | She took notice of them-- Why these sighs, why these heavings here? |
9798 | Solmes, why stand you thus humbly?--Why this distance, man? |
9798 | Some of them have been afraid to see me, lest they should be moved in my favour: does not this give a reasonable hope that I may move them? |
9798 | Surely a week would? |
9798 | That the greater their own cowardice, as it would be called in a man, the greater is their delight in subjects of heroism? |
9798 | The ardour with which he vows and promises, I think the heart only can dictate: how else can one guess at a man''s heart? |
9798 | The most admired of our moderns know nothing of this art: Why? |
9798 | The vein is opened-- Shall I let it flow? |
9798 | Then let not Mr. Solmes stay.--Why hold you me thus? |
9798 | Then turning to my uncle, Do you hear, Sir? |
9798 | They wo n''t kill me? |
9798 | This makes me half- afraid to ask you, if you think you are not too cruel, too ungenerous shall I say? |
9798 | This then is the case: They entreat, they pray, they beg, they supplicate( will either of these do, Miss Clary?) |
9798 | To do evil, that good may come of it, is forbidden: And shall I do evil, yet know not whether good may come of it or not? |
9798 | Upon the whole, Madam, said I, can you say, that the inveteracy lies not as much on our side, as on his? |
9798 | Violent girl, however, he called me-- Who, said he, who would have thought it of her? |
9798 | Was I not finely beset, my dear? |
9798 | Was this my spiteful construction? |
9798 | Were I to comply, must I not leave my relations, and go to him? |
9798 | What an honour would it be to him to have such a wife? |
9798 | What are riches, what are settlements, to happiness? |
9798 | What can I advise you to do, my noble creature? |
9798 | What can I do, my dearest Aunt Hervey? |
9798 | What can I do? |
9798 | What can I do? |
9798 | What detriment? |
9798 | What have I done, that I must be banished and confined thus disgracefully? |
9798 | What have I to do with these headstrong spirits? |
9798 | What have you done?--What have you written? |
9798 | What hopes can there be, that a lady will ever esteem, as a husband, the man, whom, as a lover, she despises? |
9798 | What is it, he asks, that he has promised, but reformation by my example? |
9798 | What is there in it, says she, that all this bustle is about? |
9798 | What mean you, Sir,[ struggling vehemently to get away,] to detain me thus against my will? |
9798 | What say you, Mr. Solmes? |
9798 | What say you? |
9798 | What then!--I can but-- But what? |
9798 | What though the contention will be between woman and woman? |
9798 | What will they do, Betty? |
9798 | What will they do? |
9798 | What workman loves not a sharp tool to work with? |
9798 | What would you have had me say, my dear?--I wo n''t tell you what I did say: But had I not said what I did, who would have believed me? |
9798 | What would you have of them? |
9798 | What''s that for? |
9798 | What, Madam, has the man dared to say of me? |
9798 | What, Madam, is now to be done with me? |
9798 | What, pray, Miss, are they? |
9798 | What, taking my hand, can be the matter with you?--Why, my dear, tremble, tremble, tremble, at this rate? |
9798 | Where, asks she[ as you have been asked before], is the praise- worthiness of obedience, if it be only paid in instance where we give up nothing? |
9798 | Whether I am willing or not willing, you mean, I suppose, Mrs. Betty? |
9798 | Whither go you, Niece? |
9798 | Who but pities you, and blames he? |
9798 | Who can forbid tears? |
9798 | Who commands my attendance, Miss? |
9798 | Who is it, then, Madam, that so reluctant an interview on both sides, is to please? |
9798 | Who knows what Tuesday or Wednesday may produce? |
9798 | Who was the old Greek, that said, he governed Athens; his wife, him; and his son, her? |
9798 | Who would not enjoy a power, that is to be short- lived? |
9798 | Who, I, Sir, to find you bowels you naturally have not? |
9798 | Whom now, Clary, said my sister, do you reflect upon? |
9798 | Why should the poor girl be turned out of doors so suddenly, so disgracefully? |
9798 | Why will you send your servant empty- handed? |
9798 | Why, dear, good Sir, am I to be made unhappy in a point so concerning my happiness? |
9798 | Will nothing do, but to have a man who is the more disgustful to me, because he is unjust in the very articles he offers? |
9798 | Will she not so far favour me? |
9798 | Will you doubt, my dear, that my next trial will be the most affecting that I have yet had? |
9798 | Will you give me your hands? |
9798 | Will you go down, Miss Clary, or will you not? |
9798 | Will you see your father? |
9798 | Would a girl, modest as simple, above seventeen, be set a- singing at the pleasure of such a man as that? |
9798 | Would a week? |
9798 | Yet I will ask you, Have you, Miss, no more proposals to make? |
9798 | Yet a club will beat down a sword: And how can you expect that they who are hurt by you will not hurt you again? |
9798 | Yet what can I do?--I believe I shall take it back again the first thing in the morning-- Yet what can I do? |
9798 | Yet why should I be thus uneasy, since, should the letter go, I can but hear what Mr. Lovelace says to it? |
9798 | You are an ungrateful and unreasonable child: Must you have your way paramount to every body''s? |
9798 | You ask me, in a very unbrotherly manner, in the postscript to your letter, if I have not some new proposals to make? |
9798 | You see how determined-- But how can I expect your advice will come time enough to stand me in any stead? |
9798 | Your answer is required, whether you cheerfully consent to go? |
9798 | a stranger, and professedly in disguise!--Would her father and grandmother, if honest people, and careful of their simple girl, permit such freedoms? |
9798 | after this instance of you so lightly dispensing with your promise? |
9798 | and does this suspicion offend you? |
9798 | and that to be withdrawn, whenever I disoblige him? |
9798 | and when I am determined never to encourage him? |
9798 | as well as I do? |
9798 | because they think you merit better treatment at her hands: And is not this to your credit? |
9798 | could escape you penetrating eye? |
9798 | cries one:--''Is she love- sick?'' |
9798 | he asked-- Was this the interpretation I put upon his brotherly care of me, and concern for me, in order to prevent my ruining myself? |
9798 | how could my uncle Harlowe so dissemble?] |
9798 | in the eye of that world which, cruelly as I am used,( not knowing all,) would not acquit me? |
9798 | in your behaviour to a man who loves you so dearly, and is so worthy and so sincere a man? |
9798 | is it to make thy keen face look still keener? |
9798 | might not I be obliged with one week, without such a horrid condition as the last? |
9798 | no answer, my dear?--Why so much silent grief? |
9798 | nor how much nobler it is to forgive, and even how much more manly to despise, than to resent, an injury? |
9798 | not if your father or mother command it-- Girl? |
9798 | particularly, upon your own family-- and upon ours too? |
9798 | repeated I: and this from my aunt Hervey? |
9798 | said I-- Had not Mr. Solmes a view in this? |
9798 | said I-- Have you not been in tears, my dear? |
9798 | said my aunt-- Could I have thought a brother would have said this, to a gentleman, of a sister? |
9798 | said my uncle, withdrawing his hands from mine: Could I ever have thought of this from you? |
9798 | said she, patting my neck-- O my dear Niece, who would have thought so much natural sweetness could be so very unpersuadable? |
9798 | silent still?--But, Clary, wo n''t you have a velvet suit? |
9798 | that my cousin Morden-- But what signifies wishing? |
9798 | to think of taking so undutiful a step, because you believe your mother would be glad to receive you again? |
9798 | to what end, Sir?--Do I contend for any thing more than a mere negative? |
9798 | what can I? |
9798 | when I myself declared, that if I saw him a second time by my own consent, it might be so taken? |
9798 | who knows what? |
9798 | with a look of pity, as if she understood the meaning of my exclamation-- But must that necessarily be the case? |
11364 | ''Why was such a woman as this thrown into my way, whose very fall will be her glory, and, perhaps, not only my shame but my destruction? |
11364 | ''Yet already have I not gone too far? |
11364 | * And was not cohabitation ever my darling view? |
11364 | * But would I not have avoided it, if I could? |
11364 | *** And what is all this wild incoherence for? |
11364 | *** Where, Lovelace, can the poor lady be gone? |
11364 | --If I am in a violent passion upon the detection, is not passion an universally- allowed extenuator of violence? |
11364 | --In which I demonstrated the conveniencies, and obviated the inconveniencies, of changing the present mode to this? |
11364 | --Yet what name else can I? |
11364 | A stranger, as I hope to be saved, to the principal arts of your sex!-- Once more, what a devil has your heart to do in your eyes? |
11364 | Am I as hateful to you as the vile Solmes? |
11364 | Am I not ready to make you all the reparation that I can make you? |
11364 | And also, if you have heard of any journey, or intended journey, of my brother, in company with Captain Singleton and Mr. Solmes? |
11364 | And am I, Sir, to be thus beset?--Surrounded thus?--What have these women to do with me? |
11364 | And am not I a smuggler too? |
11364 | And are they not both every whit as culpable? |
11364 | And are you sure you are now out of his reach? |
11364 | And can I have taken all this pains for nothing? |
11364 | And can not our fraternity in an hundred instances give proof of the like predominance of vice over virtue? |
11364 | And do n''t you know who gave it to her? |
11364 | And do you think that I would have given my consent to my imprisonment in it? |
11364 | And does he not enjoin us works of mercy to one another, as the means to obtain his mercy? |
11364 | And for how long? |
11364 | And for what should her heart be broken? |
11364 | And from what? |
11364 | And have I any other resource left me? |
11364 | And her punishment, as she calls it, is over: but when mine will, or what it may be, who can tell? |
11364 | And how should we be convinced that any of them are proof till they are tried? |
11364 | And if I do think thee so, have I not cause? |
11364 | And if they were cheerful on the anniversary occasion? |
11364 | And imaginest thou, fairest, thought I, that this will go down with a Lovelace? |
11364 | And is this amiable doctrine the sum of religion? |
11364 | And is this the answer thou returnest me? |
11364 | And must not my next step be an irretrievable one, tend it which way it will? |
11364 | And need I go throw the sins of her cursed family into the too- weighty scale? |
11364 | And now what thinkest thou must become of the lady, whom LOVE itself gives up, and CONSCIENCE can not plead for? |
11364 | And that we have risked more to serve and promote the interests of the former, than ever a good man did to serve a good man or a good cause? |
11364 | And what dost thou think it is? |
11364 | And what is it that I demand, that I have not a right to, and from which it is an illegal violence to withhold me? |
11364 | And what is that injury which a church- rite will not at any time repair? |
11364 | And what sayest thou now to my dream? |
11364 | And what will be my subject thinkest thou? |
11364 | And what will withhold a jealous and already- ruined woman? |
11364 | And what, Madam, meant you by your promise? |
11364 | And what, Sir, said she, with an air of authority, would you commit errors, and expect to be rewarded for them? |
11364 | And who can describe the distress she must be in? |
11364 | And who, thinkest thou, is my cousin Montague? |
11364 | And will she not want the crown of her glory, the proof of her till now all- surpassing excellence, if I stop short of the ultimate trial? |
11364 | And wo n''t this be doing a kind thing by them? |
11364 | And yet why say I completed? |
11364 | Answer me, Madam-- Did you mean any thing in my favour by your promise? |
11364 | Are you recovered of your illness? |
11364 | Arriving here in an instant, the first word I asked, was, If the lady was safe? |
11364 | As to the man you have lost, is an union with such a perjured heart as his, with such an admirable one as your''s, to be wished for? |
11364 | Astonishing, my dear, that you should suspect them!--But, knowing your strange opinion of them, what can I say to be believed? |
11364 | At this rate of romancing, how many flourishing ruins dost thou, as well as I, know? |
11364 | But again let me ask, Does this lady do right to make herself ill, when she is not ill? |
11364 | But as to the arms and crest upon the coach and trappings? |
11364 | But do not physicians prescribe opiates in acute cases, where the violence of the disorder would be apt to throw the patient into a fever or delirium? |
11364 | But dost think, Jack, that I in the like case( and equally affected with the distress) should have acted thus? |
11364 | But for the time she should stay in these parts, she would come up every night-- What say you, niece Charlotte? |
11364 | But have you really and truly sold yourself to him? |
11364 | But how know I, that I have not made my own difficulties? |
11364 | But how was it possible, that even that florid countenance of his should enable him to command a blush at his pleasure? |
11364 | But if I should, Jack,( with the strongest antipathy to the state that ever man had,) what a figure shall I make in rakish annals? |
11364 | But if not, what shall I say severe enough, that you have not answered either of my last letters? |
11364 | But is Thursday, the 29th, her uncle''s anniversary, methinks thou askest? |
11364 | But is not that equivocation? |
11364 | But it is not so, I plainly see: For, who can acknowledge with more justice this dear creature''s merits, and his own errors, than I? |
11364 | But know you where my lady is? |
11364 | But say, are you really ill, as a vile, vile creature informs me you are? |
11364 | But seest thou not that I am under a necessity to continue her at Sinclair''s and to prohibit all her correspondencies? |
11364 | But tell me, of a truth, is Miss Howe really and truly ill?--Very ill?- And is not her illness poison? |
11364 | But that must all be forgotten now-- How do you, my Hannah? |
11364 | But thinkest thou that, after such a series of contrivance, I will lose this inimitable woman for want of a little more? |
11364 | But thinkest thou, that I will give a harlot niece to thy honourable uncle, and to thy real aunts; and a cousin to thy cousins from a brothel? |
11364 | But this must be the last debate on this subject; for is not her fate in a manner at its crisis? |
11364 | But thou hast-- and lain with her too; or fame does thee more credit than thou deservest-- Why, Jack, knowest thou not Lady Betty''s other name? |
11364 | But to no purpose.--May she not thank herself for all that may follow? |
11364 | But to what purpose have I gone thus far, if I pursue not my principal end? |
11364 | But what can I do? |
11364 | But what shall I do, if my father can not be prevailed upon to recall his malediction? |
11364 | But who would have thought there had been such a woman in the world? |
11364 | But woe be to them, if---- Yet what will vengeance do, after an insult committed? |
11364 | But, if she will keep back her hand, if she will make me hold out mine in vain, how can I help it? |
11364 | Can I have a better? |
11364 | Can this particular story, which this girl hints at, be that of Lucy Villars? |
11364 | Could not Morrison bring up the box? |
11364 | Could the divine SOCRATES, and the divine CLARISSA, otherwise have suffered? |
11364 | Could you have thought there was a woman in the world who could thus express herself, and yet be vile? |
11364 | Did I never show thee a scheme which I drew up on such a notion as this? |
11364 | Did Mr. Solmes ever do vilely by me? |
11364 | Did you mean any thing in my favour, Madam?--Did you intend that I should think you did? |
11364 | Do n''t you think him so, Madam? |
11364 | Do we not then see, that an honest prowling fellow is a necessary evil on many accounts? |
11364 | Do you come from Miss Howe? |
11364 | Do you expect any voluntary favour from one to whom you give not a free choice? |
11364 | Do you intend, Madam, to honour me with your hand, in your uncle''s presence, or do you not? |
11364 | Do you know, do you see, my dearest life, what appearances your causeless apprehensions have given you?--Do you know it is past eleven o''clock? |
11364 | Do you live with Miss Howe? |
11364 | Do you think yourself in my power, Madam? |
11364 | Do you think, Madam, that I fear the law? |
11364 | Does he not see that he has journeyed on to this stage, with one determined point in view from the first? |
11364 | Does she not show me that she can wilfully deceive, as well as I? |
11364 | Dost thou ask, What I meant by this promise? |
11364 | Dost thou know my right name, friend? |
11364 | Dost thou not know that a Blunt''s must supply her, while her own is new lining and repairing? |
11364 | Dost thou thus evade my question? |
11364 | Durst ever see a license, Jack? |
11364 | For have we not been prodigal of life and fortune? |
11364 | For here( wouldst thou have thought it?) |
11364 | For what an odd soul must she be who could not have her twelvemonth''s trial? |
11364 | For what? |
11364 | For whom has she to receive and protect her? |
11364 | For why? |
11364 | Forgive you, my dear!--Most cordially do I forgive you-- Will you forgive me for some sharp things I wrote in return to your''s of the 5th? |
11364 | Good Lovelace, let me go to Mrs. Leeson''s? |
11364 | HER''S, or MINE? |
11364 | Had they not, Jack? |
11364 | Have I not told you, that my beloved is a great observer of the eyes? |
11364 | Have I not tried every other method? |
11364 | Have I offered any new injury to you, my dearest life? |
11364 | Have you, Madam, any reliance upon my honour? |
11364 | He asked if she had any partiklar message? |
11364 | He pulled the string-- What need to have come this way? |
11364 | Here I made an hesitating effort to speak, laying down my pen: but she proceeded!--Hear me out, guilty wretch!--abandoned man!--Man, did I say? |
11364 | Hitherto she is all angel: and was not that the point which at setting out I proposed to try? |
11364 | How came the dear soul,( clothed as it is with such a silken vesture,) by all its steadiness? |
11364 | How came you here in this? |
11364 | How do you? |
11364 | How else can I leave you? |
11364 | How often have I known opposition not only cement friendship, but create love? |
11364 | How shall I satisfy you for this kind trouble? |
11364 | How the devil can this be? |
11364 | How then, as I asked her, could I comply, without resolving to lose her for ever? |
11364 | How will you trust to it, if you extort an answer to this question? |
11364 | I axed master, if soe bee he knowed sitch a man as one Captain Tomlinson? |
11364 | I do say, if she come fairly at her lights, at her clues, or what shall I call them? |
11364 | I have lost it again-- This foolish wench comes teasing me-- for what purpose should I eat? |
11364 | I hope Miss Howe is well? |
11364 | I know what you mean, Madam-- Am I then as hateful to you as the vile Solmes? |
11364 | I only asked, What was his business, and who he came from? |
11364 | I repeat, therefore, Am I now at liberty to dispose of myself as I please? |
11364 | I will study for it---- Suppose I suffer her to make an escape? |
11364 | If I go not down to Mr. Hall, Madam, you''ll have no scruple to stay here, I suppose, till Thursday is over? |
11364 | If it be not that,[ and yet what power should her guardian angel have over me?] |
11364 | If these postulata be granted me, who, I pray, can equal my charmer in all these? |
11364 | If thou sayest, it is, however, wrong to do so; I reply, that it is nevertheless human nature:--And wouldst thou not have me to be a man, Jack? |
11364 | If you are, do you choose to come and be with me? |
11364 | Indeed has not at all forgiven me? |
11364 | Is a fancied distress, sufficient to justify this lady for dispensing with her principles? |
11364 | Is her''s, I pray you, a right sort of love? |
11364 | Is it love at all? |
11364 | Is it not wonderful? |
11364 | Is not every man and woman obliged to excuse that fault in another, which at times they find attended with such ungovernable effects in themselves? |
11364 | Is not this the crisis for which I have been long waiting? |
11364 | Is she not? |
11364 | Is this, my dear, preparative to the conversation you led me to expect in the dining- room? |
11364 | It is this: Whether you know any such man as Captain Tomlinson? |
11364 | Let go my hand, Sir-- Take away your arm from about me,[ struggling, yet trembling,]--Why do you gaze upon me so? |
11364 | Let me ask you, Madam, What meant you, when you said,''that, were it not a sin, you would die before you gave me that assurance?'' |
11364 | Let me only know, Madam, if your promise to endeavour to wait with patience the event of next Thursday meant me favour? |
11364 | May I not be able to prevail upon him to leave me at my liberty? |
11364 | May I trust to it?--Say only may I trust to it? |
11364 | May not the evil I know be less than what I may fall into, if I can avoid farther villany? |
11364 | Moreover, what a multitude of domestic quarrels would be avoided, where such a scheme carried into execution? |
11364 | Mrs. Moore''s, Madam!--I have no objection to Mrs. Moore''s-- but will you give me your promise, to admit me there to your presence? |
11364 | Must she not live? |
11364 | My dearest creature, said the vile man, gasping, as it were for breath, you shall not alight-- Any letters for me, Dorcas? |
11364 | Nay, how should I know? |
11364 | Noblest of creatures!--And do you think I can leave you, and my interest in such an excellence, precarious? |
11364 | Now, Jack, what terms wouldst thou have me to keep with such a sweet corruptress? |
11364 | Once more I ask thee, Am I, or am I not, at my own liberty now? |
11364 | Or can you conveniently? |
11364 | Or, why was this singular one to fall to my lot? |
11364 | Other name!--Has she two? |
11364 | Pray acquaint me, if they have been there? |
11364 | Pray, Madam, whipping between her and the street- door, be pleased to let me know where you are going? |
11364 | Right sort of love!--A puppy!--But, with due regard to your deityship, said I, what merits has she with YOU, that you should be of her party? |
11364 | Say only, dearest creature, say only, may I trust to your favour, if you go to Hampstead? |
11364 | Seest thou not how she hates me? |
11364 | Seest thou not that she is resolved never to forgive me? |
11364 | Seest thou not, however, that she must disgrace herself in the eye of the world, if she actually should escape? |
11364 | Several weeks past, I should say; ever since I have been with thee? |
11364 | Shall I tell thee my project? |
11364 | She purposes to return to Hampstead as soon as I am gone-- My dear, will you not have a servant to attend you? |
11364 | She put it close to me, Whether I had not corresponded with you from the time of your going away? |
11364 | She refused me her hand!--Was she wise, Jack, to confirm to me, that nothing but terror would do? |
11364 | She so affrights me, when I see her!--Ever since-- when was it? |
11364 | Should he call the next day? |
11364 | Suppose Dorcas should drop the promissory note given her by her lady? |
11364 | Tell me, ungrateful devil, tell me who made the first advances? |
11364 | The brute, or the lady? |
11364 | The coachman stopped: his servant, who, with one of her''s was behind, alighted-- Ask, said he, if I have any letters? |
11364 | The red- hot iron she refuses to strike-- O why will she suffer the yielding wax to harden? |
11364 | The whole sex is indeed wounded by you: For, who but Miss Clarissa Harlowe was proposed by every father and mother for a pattern for their daughters? |
11364 | The would not the distinction be very pretty, Jack? |
11364 | Thou hast seen Lady Betty Lawrance several times-- hast thou not, Belford? |
11364 | To endeavour, Sir, to make myself easy-- were the words---- Till you saw what next Thursday would produce? |
11364 | To prostitute the characters of persons of honour of thy own family-- and all to delude a poor creature, whom thou oughtest-- But why talk I to thee? |
11364 | To what purpose did I ask her consent, if she had not a power over either her own person or actions? |
11364 | Wallis? |
11364 | Was he one of Lovelace''s creatures too!-- Could nobody come near me but that man''s confederates, either setting out so, or made so? |
11364 | Was it necessary to humble me down to the low level of thy baseness, before I could be a wife meet for thee? |
11364 | Was she not talking with you this moment? |
11364 | Was you ordered to wait for an answer? |
11364 | Well, but, after all[ how many after- all''s have I?] |
11364 | Were I to be sure that this foundation is laid[ And why may I not hope it is?] |
11364 | What a d--- l I moves you, to plead thus earnestly for a rebel, who despises your power? |
11364 | What amends can such a one as thou make to a person of spirit, or common sense, for the evils thou hast so inhumanely made me suffer? |
11364 | What answer, Mrs. Margaret, did you give the man, upon his asking for Mrs. Harriot Lucas? |
11364 | What can she do but rave and exclaim? |
11364 | What can this mean!--Who was the messenger you sent? |
11364 | What could I say to such a question? |
11364 | What defence, indeed, could there be against so determined a wretch, after you was in his power? |
11364 | What duration is your reign to have? |
11364 | What have I done to merit so much goodness, who never saw your Lordship in my life?] |
11364 | What have you to say to me? |
11364 | What is it she ought not to expect from an unchained Beelzebub, and a plotting villain? |
11364 | What is she afraid of? |
11364 | What is thy business? |
11364 | What is your business with me, friend? |
11364 | What is your business, friend, with Mrs. Harry Lucas? |
11364 | What nonsense then to suppose that such a mere notional violation as she has suffered should be able to cut asunder the strings of life? |
11364 | What redress lies for a perpetuated evil? |
11364 | What right have you to detain me here? |
11364 | What right have you to stop me, as you lately did; and to bring me up by force, my hands and arms bruised by your violence? |
11364 | What say you, cousin Lovelace? |
11364 | What though the presence of a fine lady would require a different behaviour, are you not of years to dispense with politeness? |
11364 | What vestigia, what remembrances, but such as will inspire abhorrence of the attempter? |
11364 | What will you do for clothes, Madam? |
11364 | What will you do for money, Madam? |
11364 | What, he asks, is the injury which a church- rite will not at any time repair? |
11364 | What, said she, would you have me do? |
11364 | When settest thou out for the Isle of Wight, love? |
11364 | Whence, Jack, can this be? |
11364 | Where will she mend herself? |
11364 | Wherefore then should grief sadden and distort such blythe, such jocund, features as mine? |
11364 | Whether her virtue be principle? |
11364 | Whether, if once subdued, she will not be always subdued? |
11364 | Whether, in a word, you intend to hinder me from going where my destiny shall lead me? |
11364 | Whither, Madam, do you design to go when you get out of this house? |
11364 | Who has a right to controul me? |
11364 | Who now shall provide the nuptial ornaments, which soften and divert the apprehensions of the fearful virgin? |
11364 | Who says that, sleeping and waking, I have not fine helps from somebody, some spirit rather, as thou''lt be apt to say? |
11364 | Who the devil could have expected such strange effects from a cause so common and so slight? |
11364 | Who therefore so fit for an example to the rest of her sex? |
11364 | Whose regret, at times, can be deeper than mine, for the injuries I have done her? |
11364 | Why all these exclamations? |
11364 | Why all this extravagant passion? |
11364 | Why am I to be thus detained against my will? |
11364 | Why did I not send for their coach, as I had intimated? |
11364 | Why do you call Mr. Solmes vile? |
11364 | Why hesitate you, Sir? |
11364 | Why should I seek to conceal that disgrace from others which I can not hide from myself? |
11364 | Why should I? |
11364 | Why then should this enervating pity unsteel my foolish heart? |
11364 | Why then were there not more examples of a virtue so immovable? |
11364 | Why this terror, my life? |
11364 | Why will she make it necessary for me to bring Lady Betty and my cousin to my assistance? |
11364 | Why, Mr. Lovelace, must I be determined by your motions?--Think you that I will voluntarily give a sanction to the imprisonment of my person? |
11364 | Why, why, thought I, as I did several times in this conversation, will she not generously forgive me? |
11364 | Will it not be rather surmised, that she may be apprehensive that some weakness, or lurking love, will appear upon the trial of the strange cause? |
11364 | Will not Col. Morden, as her trustee, put her in possession of it? |
11364 | Will not the consequence of your departure hence be that I shall lose you for ever, Madam?--And can I bear the thoughts of that? |
11364 | Will you eat, or drink, friend? |
11364 | Will you take Dorcas? |
11364 | With what face can I take upon me to reproach a want of prudence in her? |
11364 | Would I dare, she asked me, to offer at a palliation of my baseness? |
11364 | Would she be pleased to assure me that she would stay here only till Tuesday morning? |
11364 | Yet is she not haughty?] |
11364 | Yet what does even my success in my machinations bring me but regret, disgrace, repentance? |
11364 | You are Mrs. Harriot Lucas, I suppose, Madam? |
11364 | You persuade your lady to be afraid of alighting.--See you not that she is just fainting? |
11364 | You thought, Madam, you had given me room to hope your pardon by it? |
11364 | a- year, enable a man to do? |
11364 | and Dorcas whipt to the inner- hall door, and saw her; but, taking her for Mabell, Are you going far, Mabell? |
11364 | and have we not attempted rescues, and dared all things, only to extricate a pounded profligate? |
11364 | and how could you pass me unseen? |
11364 | and when a CLARISSA could not move me? |
11364 | and wherefore these agonizing apprehensions? |
11364 | and whether you bespoke your nephew''s attendance there on Sunday night the 11th? |
11364 | and will you acquit her whom that condemns? |
11364 | and, if you do, whether he be very intimate with my uncle Harlowe? |
11364 | at a time too, when, as it falls out, I have another very sensible disappointment to struggle with? |
11364 | have we not defied the civil magistrate upon occasion? |
11364 | knows not how to forgive with graciousness? |
11364 | one whom she knew to be a rake? |
11364 | or what malefactor ought to be hanged? |
11364 | said he-- But since we are, I will but ask a question-- My dearest life, why this apprehension? |
11364 | said she-- do you authorize these women-- what right have they, or you either, to stop me? |
11364 | what a hand have I made of it!--And all for what? |
11364 | what, in the mean time, shall I do with this admirable creature? |
11364 | when the will, the consent, is wanting-- and I have still views before me of obtaining that? |
11364 | when, of consequence, the affair is irretrievable? |
11364 | with the weapons thou brandishest so fearfully against him.--And to what purpose, when the mischief is done? |
10462 | ''*--What must that heart be that can triumph in a distress so deep, into which she has been plunged by thy elaborate arts and contrivances? |
10462 | ''If Mrs. Fretchville knows not her own mind, what is her house to me? |
10462 | ''Let me ask you, Madam, I beseech you tell me, what I have done to deserve this distant treatment? |
10462 | ''Whither can she fly to avoid me? |
10462 | *** And now, Belford, what dost think? |
10462 | *** And what must necessarily be the consequence of all this with regard to my beloved''s behaviour to me? |
10462 | ----And why did he not fall into this temptation? |
10462 | --And what if she could?--What could Hannah do for her in such a house as this? |
10462 | --Are women only to tease, I trow? |
10462 | --Can you so expect to narrow and confine such a passion as mine? |
10462 | --Could a Lovelace have allowed himself a greater license? |
10462 | --Is there any bearing this, Belford? |
10462 | --May I see the letter? |
10462 | --One favour, dearest creature-- Let me but know, whether Miss Howe approves or disapproves of my proposals? |
10462 | --What sayest thou to this, Belford? |
10462 | --Yet no harm done by me, nor so much as attempted? |
10462 | --creature if you be, forgive me!--forgive my inadvertencies!--forgive my inequalities!--pity my infirmities!--Who is equal to my Clarissa? |
10462 | Am I not a villain, a fool, a Beelzebub, with them already? |
10462 | Am I not obliged to deserve thy compliment? |
10462 | Am I not under a necessity, as it were, of quarrelling with him; at least every other time I see him? |
10462 | Am I not your general? |
10462 | And are not cautions against the perfidy of our sex a necessary part of the female education? |
10462 | And are not lovers''oaths a jest of hundreds of years''standing? |
10462 | And as it gives people the power of being mischievous, does it not require great virtue to forbear the use of that power? |
10462 | And did not Essex''s personal reflection on Queen Elizabeth, that she was old and crooked, contribute more to his ruin than his treason? |
10462 | And do you think, my worthy woman, do you think, that the wilful lapse of such a child is to be forgiven? |
10462 | And for what? |
10462 | And has, besides, overheard a conversation[ who would have thought she had been so near?] |
10462 | And have I so much as summoned this to surrender? |
10462 | And if I do her this justice, shall I not have a claim of her gratitude? |
10462 | And if I do, after prevailing( whether by surprise, or by reluctant consent) whom but myself shall I have injured? |
10462 | And is not the mind of a person strongly indicated by outward dress? |
10462 | And now, Jack, dost thou think she''ll attempt to get from me, do what I will? |
10462 | And so, Sir, taking all you say for granted, your cousin Montague can not come to Mrs. Sinclair''s? |
10462 | And that other great one, of fixing myself here night and day? |
10462 | And then it was with my hopes, and my hopes, and my hopes, that I should have been early admitted to-- What weather is it, Dorcas? |
10462 | And think you, my dear, that Scipio did not blush with indignation, when the charge was first communicated to him? |
10462 | And this will be a further proof of my love, and will demand a grateful return-- And what then, thou egregious contriver? |
10462 | And what a vulture of a man must he be, who souses upon his prey, and in the same moment trusses and devours? |
10462 | And what if she shows a great deal of concern? |
10462 | And what in saying this, and acting up to it, do I offer you, but the frits of a friendship your worth has created? |
10462 | And what shall deter an attempter? |
10462 | And what should it be but of the answer the truly admirable creature had intended to give to my written proposals in relation to settlements? |
10462 | And what the contents? |
10462 | And what were my four friends to her in her present circumstances? |
10462 | And what will being sick do for thee? |
10462 | And what will this do? |
10462 | And what woman answers affirmatively to the question? |
10462 | And who knows but that once indulgent uncle, who has very great weight in the family, may be induced to interpose in my behalf? |
10462 | And why do the sex love rakes, but because they know how to direct their uncertain wills, and manage them? |
10462 | And why sayest thou she loves me? |
10462 | And why shouldst thou punish me, for having more conscience and more remorse than thyself? |
10462 | And will not such a man as this engross all your solitudes? |
10462 | And will she not think herself the obliged, rather than the obliger? |
10462 | And would a man who has nothing but faults( for pray, Sir, what are your virtues?) |
10462 | And wouldst thou have me repent of a murder before I have committed it? |
10462 | And wouldst thou make her unhappy for her whole life, and thyself not happy for a single moment? |
10462 | And you say you have tried Mrs. Norton''s weight with my mother? |
10462 | And, indeed, what is a covetous man to be likened to so fitly, as to a dog in a wheel which roasts meat for others? |
10462 | Are there no pigeons and chickens in every poulterer''s shop? |
10462 | Are these sayings bad, Sir? |
10462 | Are they not now robbing his heirs?--What has thou to do, if the will be as thou''dst have it?--He sent for thee[ did he not?] |
10462 | Are we not children of this world? |
10462 | Are you not men born to considerable fortunes, although ye are not all of you men of parts? |
10462 | Art thou able to say half the things in her praise, that I have said, and am continually saying or writing? |
10462 | As the nymphs below ask, so do I, Why is night necessary? |
10462 | But after all, see you not, my dear, more and more, the mismatch that there is in our minds? |
10462 | But as for thy three brethren, they must do as I would have them: and so, indeed, must thou-- Else why am I your general? |
10462 | But can there be such apprehensions between them, yet the one advise her to stay, and the other resolve to wait my imperial motion for marriage? |
10462 | But didst ever hear who was the wisest woman? |
10462 | But do you call this odd soul''s letter[ no more will I call him old soul, if I can help it] a love- letter? |
10462 | But do you know the subject, Nancy? |
10462 | But here, Jack, what shall I do with my uncle and aunts, and all my loving cousins? |
10462 | But how shall I find this out; since her Dorcas knows no more of her dressing and undressing than her Lovelace? |
10462 | But in a play does not the principal entertainment lie in the first four acts? |
10462 | But is she, in the instance before us, more polite for a woman? |
10462 | But knowest thou not young Newcomb, honest Doleman''s newphew? |
10462 | But let me ask, Has it not been a constant maxim with us, that the greater the merit on the woman''s side, the nobler the victory on the man''s? |
10462 | But otherwise, he had seen as many contrite faces at the Royal Chapel, as any where else: and why not? |
10462 | But should she be so much grieved at this? |
10462 | But suppose a person of your talents were to marry a man of inferior talents; Who, in this case, can be so happy in herself as Miss Clarissa Harlowe? |
10462 | But thou wilt not drown the poor fellow; wilt thou? |
10462 | But what can you promise youself, as to perseverance in them, with an immoral husband? |
10462 | But what hinders you from leaving me?--Cannot I send to you? |
10462 | But what is become of Lord M. I trow, that he writes not to me, in answer to my invitation? |
10462 | But what is person with such a lady as I have the honour to be now writing to? |
10462 | But what is this saying, but that I must be first wiser? |
10462 | But what necessity can there be for hypocrisy, unless the generality of the sex were to refuse us for our immoralities? |
10462 | But what points will not perseverance carry? |
10462 | But what, said I, is the result of your inquiry? |
10462 | But why callest thou the lady innocent? |
10462 | But why do I translate these things for you? |
10462 | But why so, my dear? |
10462 | But why, now, when fairer prospects seem to open, why these melancholy reflections? |
10462 | But why, rather I should ask, will she fight against her stars? |
10462 | But why?--Do they think it so great a disgrace to be found out to be really what they are? |
10462 | But, after all, I am sorry, almost sorry( for how shall I do to be quite sorry, when it is not given to me to be so?) |
10462 | But, if not,[ was it his business, my dear, before I spoke( yet he seemed to be afraid of me) to say, if not?] |
10462 | But, if we are good- natured and humane: if the woman has art:[ and what woman wants it, who has fallen by art? |
10462 | Can a girl be degraded by trials, who is not overcome? |
10462 | Can not I find one yielding or but half- yielding moment, if she do not absolutely hate me? |
10462 | Can she herself think that she deserves not the severest punishment for the abuse of such talents as were intrusted to her? |
10462 | Can you hope, cousin, with such a man as this to be long so good as you now are? |
10462 | Canst thou doubt, that it was all complaisance next time she admitted me into her presence? |
10462 | Could a man act a weaker part, had he been really married; and were he sure he was going to separate from the mother of his own children? |
10462 | Could not the man have fallen into the subject without this parade? |
10462 | Could they expect, that a mother would not vindicate her authority? |
10462 | Courage whenever I assume, all is over: for, should she think of escaping from hence, whither can she fly to avoid me? |
10462 | D. Dear Madam, would you blame me, if to wish you not to marry Mr. Antony Harlowe, is to wish well to myself? |
10462 | D. From Mr. Antony Harlowe, I suppose, Madam? |
10462 | D. How can I expect, Madam, that you should refuse such terms? |
10462 | D. How, Madam, could I think of any body else? |
10462 | D. Then he is to come again, Madam? |
10462 | D. Will you forgive me, Madam? |
10462 | D. Without hearing the whole of the letter? |
10462 | Dear creature!--Did she never romp? |
10462 | Depend they not, generally, upon their fortunes, in the views they have upon us, more than on their merits? |
10462 | Did she never, from girlhood to now, hoyden? |
10462 | Didst thou ever know that a woman''s denial of any favour, whether the least or the greatest, that my heart was set upon, stood her in any stead? |
10462 | Do I what, Madam?--And why vile man? |
10462 | Do n''t you see that his very skin is a fortification of buff? |
10462 | Do n''t you think so, my dear? |
10462 | Do not girls of fortune adorn themselves on purpose to engage our attention? |
10462 | Do not the hunters of the noble game value the venison less than the sport? |
10462 | Do not the sex carry all their points with their men by the same methods? |
10462 | Do you defend these two gentlewomen, Sir, by reflections upon half the sex? |
10462 | Do you know how my poor Hannah does? |
10462 | Do you know, my dear, how this can be? |
10462 | Do you not think, my dear, that I have reason to be incensed at him, my situation considered? |
10462 | Does not the example you furnish, of having succeeded with her, give encouragement for others to attempt her likewise? |
10462 | Does not the keen fox- hunter endanger his neck and his bones in pursuit of a vermin, which, when killed, is neither fit food for men nor dogs? |
10462 | Dorcas is to be attached to her interest: my letters are to be come at by surprise or trick''-- What thinkest thou of this, Jack? |
10462 | Dost think I brought the dear creature hither for nothing? |
10462 | Even suppose the husband is in the wrong, will not this being so give the greater force to her expostulation? |
10462 | For what, with a mind so unequal as his, can be my best hope? |
10462 | For what? |
10462 | For why, in short, should not the work of bodies be left to mere bodies? |
10462 | For why, when they know they can not do good, may they not as well endeavour to gratify, as to nauseate, the patient''s palate? |
10462 | For why? |
10462 | God give us both comfort; and to the once dear-- the ever- dear creature( for can a mother forget her child?) |
10462 | Good!--But how wilt thou manage to bring up blood, and not hurt thyself? |
10462 | Has not she? |
10462 | Hast thou not observed, the charming gradations by which the ensnared volatile has been brought to bear with its new condition? |
10462 | Have I conversed with them so freely as I have done, and learnt nothing of them? |
10462 | Have I not always told thee so? |
10462 | Have I not called thine the plotting''st heart in the universe? |
10462 | Have I not said, that the honour of her sex is concerned that I should try? |
10462 | Have my uncles given their sanction, and made it a family act? |
10462 | Have you not been impoliticly shy of her? |
10462 | He is but an uncle, is he? |
10462 | He owns likewise that he has not the address of Mr. Lovelace: but what a mere personal advantage is a plausible address, without morals? |
10462 | He was full of excuses-- O my dear, what would you, even you, do with such a man as this; and in my situation? |
10462 | How can it be? |
10462 | How can she think to be a wife? |
10462 | How comes it to pass, that I can not help being pleased with this virago''s spirit, though I suffer by it? |
10462 | How could you brook to go backward, instead of forward, in those duties which you now so exemplarily perform? |
10462 | How dare I what, Madam? |
10462 | How dare I what? |
10462 | How dare you curse any body in my presence? |
10462 | How know I then, upon recollection, that my censures upon theirs are not too rash? |
10462 | How my indignation rises for this poor consolation in the courtship[ courtship must I call it?] |
10462 | How should I know, unless the dear creature had communicated them to me? |
10462 | Hudibras questions well,------What mad lover ever dy''d To gain a soft and easy bride? |
10462 | I am said, to doubt her love-- Have I not reason? |
10462 | I am sensible that my pleas and my reasoning may be easily answered, and perhaps justly censured; But by whom censured? |
10462 | I asked her, if she had had the small- pox? |
10462 | I find he was full of expectation that I should meet him with a very favourable, who knows but with a thankful, aspect? |
10462 | I need not bid you respect me mightily: your allegiance obliges you to that: And who that sees me, respects me not? |
10462 | I saw not, I said, begging her pardon, that she liked any body.--[Plain dealing for plain dealing, Jack!--Why then did she abuse my friends?] |
10462 | I took her reluctant hand, and pressed it to my lips.--Dearest, loveliest of creatures, why this distance? |
10462 | I would have flung from him in resentment; but he would not let me: and what could I do? |
10462 | If a woman suspects a rogue in an honest man, is it not enough to make the honest man who knows it a rogue? |
10462 | If he come, it will be in pursuance of that line, I presume? |
10462 | If now she has so little liking to his morals, has she not reason before to have as little? |
10462 | If such a man as Mr. Lovelace knows not this, who should? |
10462 | If they were faulty in some of the measures they took, while they themselves did not think so, who shall judge for them? |
10462 | If women have such things in their heads, why should not I in my heart? |
10462 | If you ask me, my dear, how this caution befits me? |
10462 | If your parents and you differ in sentiment on this important occasion, let me ask you, my dear cousin, who ought to give way? |
10462 | In what light am I to look upon you? |
10462 | Is he not? |
10462 | Is it he? |
10462 | Is it not generally agreed that he can not recover? |
10462 | Is it not plain, my dear, that he designs to vex and tease me? |
10462 | Is not all in a manner over when you come to the fifth? |
10462 | Is not the devil said to be the god of this world? |
10462 | Is not the world full of these deceptions? |
10462 | Is the devil in the girl? |
10462 | Is the passion you boast of to be thus shockingly demonstrated? |
10462 | Is this to be borne by a Lovelace? |
10462 | Knowest thou not, that I am a great name- father? |
10462 | M. And suppose he be? |
10462 | M. Old soul, Nancy!--And thus to call him for being a bachelor, not having a child!--Does this become you? |
10462 | M. That sum has your approbation then? |
10462 | M. What now would the pert one be at? |
10462 | M. What would the girl say? |
10462 | M.[ Lips drawn closer: eye raised] Why, my dear!--I can not but own-- But how, I wonder, could you think of Mr. Anthony Harlowe? |
10462 | May I be allowed to read his letter? |
10462 | Memorandum, To be considered of-- Whether, in order to complete my vengeance, I can not contrive to kidnap away either James Harlowe or Solmes? |
10462 | Mennell? |
10462 | Most confoundedly alarmed!--Lord, Sir, what do you think? |
10462 | Mrs. Sinclair came out at that instant, and asked me, if I did not choose a dish of chocolate? |
10462 | Must I not with such a man, says she, be wanting to myself, were I not jealous and vigilant? |
10462 | Must it not even rise strongest upon a thoughtful mind, when her hopes are the fairest? |
10462 | My cursed character, as I have often said, was against me at setting out--Yet is she not a woman? |
10462 | My dearest creature, need I to have mentioned any thing of this? |
10462 | My dearest life,[ taking her still folded hands in mine,] who can bear an invocation so affecting, though so passionate? |
10462 | My dearest love, are you well? |
10462 | My dearest, dearest creature, would you incur a maternal, as I have a paternal, malediction? |
10462 | Nor was my Rosebud the only girl I spared:--When my power was acknowledged, who more merciful than thy friend? |
10462 | Now, Belford, were I to go no farther than I have gone with my beloved Miss Harlowe, how shall I know the difference between her and another bird? |
10462 | Now, my dear, is not this a particular incident, either as I have made it, or as it was designed? |
10462 | O my beloved creature, will not this be agreeable to you? |
10462 | O my dearest life, said he, why will you banish me from your presence? |
10462 | On my return, meeting Dorcas on the stairs-- Your lady in her chamber, Dorcas? |
10462 | Or shall I roundly accost him, in the words, in the form, which you, my dear, prescribed? |
10462 | Or, for a lady tender- hearted, In purling streams, or hemp, departed? |
10462 | Rememebrest thou not this scene? |
10462 | Seek they not to draw us into their snares? |
10462 | Shall we deprive them of the benefit of their principal dependence?--Can I, in particular, marry every girl who wishes to obtain my notice? |
10462 | She asked, if she might take a copy of Miss Montague''s letter? |
10462 | She found, said he, that I was unable to determine about entering upon it; and now who knows when such a vapourish creature will come to a resolution? |
10462 | She is in my eye all mind: and were she to meet with a man all mind likewise, why should the charming qualities she is mistress of be endangered? |
10462 | She proceeded: What now remains, but that you pronounce me free of all obligation to you? |
10462 | Should she attempt to fly me upon it, can not I detain her? |
10462 | Sick!--Why sick? |
10462 | So likewise her father fears; her brother hears; and what can I do? |
10462 | Suppose I were to be unhappy, what, my dear, would this resolution of yours avail me? |
10462 | Tell me, Madam, I conjure you to tell me, this moment, without subterfuge or reserve, in what light am I to appear to you in future? |
10462 | The dear girl hoped that nothing had passed in her behaviour to give me dislike to her.--Should she bring her to me? |
10462 | The first word he asked Dorcas, was, If I had received a letter since he had been out? |
10462 | The more noble any one is, the more humble; so bear with me, if you would be thought noble.--Am I not your uncle? |
10462 | The women below say she hates me; she despises me!--And''tis true: she does; she must.--And why can not I take their advice? |
10462 | Then so sensual!--How will a young lady of your delicacy bear with so sensual a man? |
10462 | Then turning to him, I asked, if he kept me there his prisoner? |
10462 | There, Belford!--Worse off than Mercury!--Art thou not? |
10462 | They doubt not my generosity, they say: But why for my own sake, in Lord M.''s style, should I make so long a harvest of so little corn? |
10462 | Those, Mr. Belford, who most love, are least set by.--But who would expect velvet to be made out of a sow''s ear? |
10462 | To stand by, and see fair play between an old man and death? |
10462 | Was not this my motive for bringing her hither? |
10462 | Was not this plain speaking, think you, my dear? |
10462 | Well then, will he not be obliged to declare himself? |
10462 | Well, but shall we not be in danger of being hanged for three such enormous rapes, although Hickman should escape with only a bellyful of sea- water? |
10462 | Well, but to the letter-- Yet what need of further explanation after the hints in my former? |
10462 | Well, then, shall this poor privilege, that we may part with a woman if we will, be deemed a balance for the other inconveniencies? |
10462 | Were not hesitation, a self- felt glow, a downcast eye, encouragement more than enough? |
10462 | What a figure should I make in rakish annals, if at last I should be caught in my own gin? |
10462 | What a- devil shouldst thou be sick for? |
10462 | What could I say? |
10462 | What for? |
10462 | What is it, pray? |
10462 | What is the whole world to me, weighed against such a friend as you are? |
10462 | What is there in an easy conquest? |
10462 | What may happen next, whether a storm or a calm, with such a spirit as I have to deal with, who can tell? |
10462 | What room for delicacy now?--Or would you have me write to him? |
10462 | What sayest thou to this, Jack? |
10462 | What signifies her keeping me thus at a distance? |
10462 | What signifies power, if we do not exert it? |
10462 | What signifies thy tedious whining over thy departing relation? |
10462 | What therefore, upon the whole, do we get by treading in these crooked paths, but danger, disgrace, and a too- late repentance? |
10462 | What think you, my dear, of this expedient? |
10462 | What think you? |
10462 | What woulds''t thou more? |
10462 | What''s the matter now? |
10462 | What, in the first place, wilt thou ask, shall be done with Hickman? |
10462 | What, my dearest cousin, shall I plead first to you on this occasion? |
10462 | What, pray, Sir, can be pleaded for the condescension, as you call it? |
10462 | What, pray, is her objection to Mrs. Sinclair''s? |
10462 | What, says he, might have become of me, and of my projects, had not her father, and the rest of the implacables, stood my friends? |
10462 | Whither go, the evening advanced? |
10462 | Who can account for the workings of an apprehensive mind, when all that is dear and valuable to it is at stake? |
10462 | Who is it in this mortal life that wealth does not mislead? |
10462 | Who knows, but on that very Monday night I may be so unhappy as to give mortal offence to my beloved? |
10462 | Who knows, she says, but her dear friend was permitted to swerve, in order to bring about his reformation? |
10462 | Who so proper to assist in making new holding laws, as those whom no law in being could hold? |
10462 | Who, that hath such, will let''em be idle? |
10462 | Why can not I make every day equally happy? |
10462 | Why look you so solemn upon me? |
10462 | Why should I mince the matter? |
10462 | Why should he wish to expose his children to the scorn and insults of the rest of the world? |
10462 | Why should such an angel be plunged so low as into the vulgar offices of a domestic life? |
10462 | Why that word approbation? |
10462 | Why then I shall have the less remorse, if I am to use a little violence: for can she deserve compassion, who shows none? |
10462 | Why then do they keep tormenting him? |
10462 | Why then does my foolish fondness seek to establish for her the same merit in my heart, as if she avowed it? |
10462 | Why then should you hesitate a moment to confirm my happiness? |
10462 | Why, again I repeat, should he have been desirous to bring me into such company? |
10462 | Why, my dear, if you love me, will you not rather give another friend to one who has not two she is sure of? |
10462 | Why, once more, would you banish me from you? |
10462 | Why, why, my dear, will you fright me with your flaming love? |
10462 | Why? |
10462 | Will it not be kind in thee to put him out of his misery? |
10462 | Will you say, your merits, either with regard to them, or to myself, may? |
10462 | Will your indifference never be over? |
10462 | With whom, think you? |
10462 | Would I vouchsafe to say, whether I approved of his compliment to Lord M. or not? |
10462 | Would not a brave fellow choose to appear in court to such an arraignment, confronting women who would do credit to his attempt? |
10462 | Would not the world think there was an infection in my fault, if it were to be followed by Miss Howe? |
10462 | Would to heaven-- but what signifies wishing? |
10462 | Yes, to be sure, when caught-- But is there any likelihood of that?-- Besides, have we not been in danger before now for worse facts? |
10462 | Yet considers not that a woman so perfect can never be displeased with her husband but to his disgrace: For who will blame her? |
10462 | Yet do not her parents richly deserve to be in tears? |
10462 | Yet the former with a freer will than the latter; for how can I leave my goddess? |
10462 | Yet, how my soul thirsts for revenge upon both these ladies? |
10462 | You are sure, that you can go abroad when you please? |
10462 | You give yourself very free airs-- don''t you? |
10462 | You will believe I can not: for how shall I tell him that all his compliments are misbestowed? |
10462 | a man who makes a jest of his vows? |
10462 | all his warnings vain? |
10462 | and after sitting up with you, equally against my will, till a very late hour? |
10462 | and do I not design to be better to you than your father could be? |
10462 | and how do you know, if you once give way, where you shall be suffered, where you shall be able, to stop? |
10462 | and is it thus you would entrap me? |
10462 | and that even my highest expectation is to be the wife of that free- liver, whom he so pathetically warns me to shun? |
10462 | and that our correspondence is safe? |
10462 | and that you hinder me not from pursuing the destiny that shall be allotted me? |
10462 | and to whose precarious situation art is so necessary?] |
10462 | and why should he make them think themselves under obligation to every person of character, who will vouchsafe to visit them? |
10462 | and wouldst thou give operation and completion to that curse, which otherwise can not have effect? |
10462 | are they to be despised?--Well, then, why should I be despised for remembering them, and quoting them, as I love to do? |
10462 | as I have often said, can not you touch a lady''s heart without wounding her ear? |
10462 | betrayed by his own tenderness, and unused to female tears, would have been overcome? |
10462 | expect that I should show a value for him? |
10462 | for what relation has a lover''s heart to a rusty pair of hinges? |
10462 | if this be right to be done, how difficult is it, where modesty and self( or where pride, if you please) is concerned, to do that right? |
10462 | is it not enough that she is teased and tormented in person by me? |
10462 | or both? |
10462 | said I, can you think I have not some curiosity? |
10462 | said I.--If you are a man of honour, what need of all this strange obliquity? |
10462 | she may not yield to nightly surprises? |
10462 | that all his advice is thrown away? |
10462 | was it not, my dear? |
10462 | watchful as you are, what could have happened? |
10462 | when the greatest pride of all my family is, that of having the honour of so dear a creature for their relation? |
10462 | why comest thou not just now, while these black prospects are before me? |
10462 | why this displeasure?--How can you thus torture the faithfullest heart in the world? |
10462 | will my beloved friend ask of her Clarissa? |
10462 | with a trembling impatience, that seemed not affected-- What say you for to- morrow? |
10462 | wouldst thou not have me act in character? |
10799 | ''But has goody Moore any other lodgings to let?'' |
10799 | ''What are our affairs to him? |
10799 | ''Wife, Lovelace?'' |
10799 | * Might she be assured, she asked him, that her brother, with Singleton and Solmes, were actually in quest of her? |
10799 | * Was it not easy then, thinkest thou, to contrive a shorter letter out of a longer; and to copy the very words? |
10799 | ** and before Mrs. Sinclair, and her household, and Miss Partington? |
10799 | *** A gentleman to speak with me, Dorcas?--Who can want me thus early? |
10799 | *** Is all ready, Dorcas? |
10799 | *** Well, Jack!--And what thinkest thou of this last letter? |
10799 | ***--And yet why fly I from subjects that, duly considered, might tend to correct and purify my heart? |
10799 | **--And do not I know that it is? |
10799 | -- And what is there so very greatly amiss, AS THE WORLD GOES, in all this? |
10799 | --Was not this a bold put, Jack? |
10799 | --Whither does that path lead? |
10799 | --in this Tomlinson? |
10799 | >>> And thus situated, should he offer greater free- doms, must you not forgive him? |
10799 | >>> But can I think[ you will ask with indignant astonishment] that Lovelace can have designs upon your honour? |
10799 | Absolutely resolved, Madam? |
10799 | All sweetly blushing and confounded-- I know how she will look!--But why should she, the sufferer, be ashamed, when I, the trespasser, am not? |
10799 | And I am truly afraid, that his very generosity is more owing to his pride and his vanity, that that philanthropy( shall I call it?) |
10799 | And I thought I felt drops of scalding water[ could they be tears?] |
10799 | And are we not told, that in being well deceived consists the whole of human happiness? |
10799 | And as to trying her, is she not now in the height of her trial? |
10799 | And can not I, as I have often said, reward her when I will by marriage? |
10799 | And can there, after all, be a higher piece of justice, than to keep one smuggler in readiness to play against another? |
10799 | And can you refuse to ratify your own promise? |
10799 | And do not your sprightly ladies love your smart fellow, and your rakes? |
10799 | And does he imagine, said she, that I could be brought to countenance to them the report you have given out? |
10799 | And freely? |
10799 | And has not my own heart deceived me, when I thought it did not? |
10799 | And how can I receive a visit that must depress me more? |
10799 | And how could I do this better, than by dialoguing a little with him before them? |
10799 | And if she do, may she not forgive the last attempt?--Can she, in a word, resent that more than she does this? |
10799 | And if so, to whom shall I be accountable for what I do to them? |
10799 | And in the protection they offer you, if you are dissatisfied with mine? |
10799 | And is it not in my own power still, by the Divine favour, to secure the greatest stake of all? |
10799 | And is it not now fairly come to-- Who shall most deceive and cheat the other? |
10799 | And is not the widow Bevis my fast friend? |
10799 | And is not your friendship the pride of my life? |
10799 | And is not your friendship the pride of my life? |
10799 | And may not this very contrivance save a world of mischief? |
10799 | And now, Belford, was it not worth while to be sick? |
10799 | And pray, Sir, what is it? |
10799 | And shall such a sneaking passion as this, which can be so easily gratified by viler objects, be permitted to debase the noblest? |
10799 | And shall that of a Clarissa swell the guilty list? |
10799 | And should not my beloved, for her own sake, descend, by degrees, from goddess- hood into humanity? |
10799 | And should she not have charity for me, as I have for her? |
10799 | And that then she may assist privately at your nuptials? |
10799 | And the rather, as the maid told us, that the lady had asked her if such a gentleman[ describing him] was not in the parlour? |
10799 | And then, if there be as much flaming love between these girls as they pretend, will my charmer profit by her escape? |
10799 | And to her''s and to the honour of her sex, if I cannot?--Where then will be the hurt to either, to make the trial? |
10799 | And what dost think was the matter? |
10799 | And what have I to fear from my brother and sister? |
10799 | And what is the sum of the present argument; but that had I not been a villain in her sense of the word, she had not been such an angel? |
10799 | And what must be that love, that has not some degree of purity for its object? |
10799 | And what right has a petitioner to be angry at a repulse, if he has not a right to demand what he sues for as a debt? |
10799 | And what, Sir, said my mother? |
10799 | And what, pray, Captain, was your advice? |
10799 | And what, pray, must be the issue, when her uncle''s friend comes, although he seems to be a truly worthy man? |
10799 | And who knows but it may be the better for the lady the less she makes necessary? |
10799 | And who knows but she may? |
10799 | And whose property, I pray thee, shall I invade, if I pursue my schemes of love and vengeance? |
10799 | And why may it not rather be a servant of your cousin Morden, with notice of his arrival, and of his design to attend you? |
10799 | And why should it be thought strange, that I, who love them so dearly, and study them so much, should catch the infection of them? |
10799 | And why, dearest creature, said I, must every thing that happens, which we can not immediately account for, be what we least wish? |
10799 | And why? |
10799 | And will he not pursue his intentions in my favour, nor be himself reconciled to me, except I am married? |
10799 | And will it not look well to have a lodger who keeps his chariot? |
10799 | And will you be so good as to allow of this, Mr. Lovelace? |
10799 | And will you look upon me to- morrow as if nothing had passed? |
10799 | And wouldest thou think it? |
10799 | And, as the sting of this reflection will sharpen upon me, if I recover her not, how shall I ever be able to bear it? |
10799 | And, in either case, will not the remembrance of thy ever- during guilt, and transitory triumph, be a torment of torments to thee? |
10799 | Another of her feints, I suppose: for how, or with whom, could any thing of this sort have been concerted since yesterday morning? |
10799 | Are not all our engines in readiness? |
10799 | Are we to form our opinion of things by the romantic notions of a girl, who supposes that to be the greatest which is the slightest of evils? |
10799 | As to my spouse herself, has she not reason to be pleased with me for having permitted her to receive Miss Howe''s letter from Wilson''s? |
10799 | Briefly, whether you are actually, and bonâ fide, married to Miss Clarissa Harlowe? |
10799 | But I ask him, how he can already expect any mark of deference or politeness from you? |
10799 | But as to this letter, methinkest thou sayest, of Miss Howe? |
10799 | But did not I tell thee that I had provided for every thing? |
10799 | But did not the sweet soul deserve this turn upon her, for feloniously resolving to rob me of herself, had the application made by Hickman succeeded? |
10799 | But didst thou think, Jack, that there was so much-- What- shall- I- call- it? |
10799 | But if I answer that I am, what then? |
10799 | But if there be infection in that house, how has my beloved escaped it? |
10799 | But if this is so, what,[ it would be asked by an indifferent person,] has hitherto saved you? |
10799 | But let me ask you one previous question-- Do you know Colonel Morden, Sir? |
10799 | But let me see, shall I be angry or pleased when I am admitted to my beloved''s presence? |
10799 | But seest thou not that I have a claim of merit for a grace that every body hitherto had denied me? |
10799 | But suppose you desire to go out of town for the air, this sultry weather, and insist upon it? |
10799 | But this effect of her joy on such an occasion gives me a high notion of what that virtue must be[ What other name can I call it?] |
10799 | But this, indeed, may be said of all worldly delights.--And is not that a grave reflection from me? |
10799 | But was it improper to ask for copies of my proposals, and of her answer, in order to show them to his dear friend, her uncle? |
10799 | But what advantages do I give thee? |
10799 | But what am I about? |
10799 | But what indeed is an imperial crown itself when a man is used to it? |
10799 | But whither, whither, my dearest love, would you go!--Think you not that I will follow you, were it to the world''s end!--Whither would you go? |
10799 | But why must the faults of other people be laid at my door? |
10799 | But why, Jack, is this dear creature so lovely, yet so invincible?--Ever heardst thou before that the sweets of May blossomed in December? |
10799 | But why, my dear, should these men( for Mr. Lovelace is not singular in this) think themselves above giving these beautiful proofs of a feeling heart? |
10799 | But why? |
10799 | But would it not be better to show her uncle the draught of the settlements, when drawn? |
10799 | But, Madam, can not a body just peep into the other apartment; that I may be more particular to my wife in the furniture of it? |
10799 | But, my dear, will you be pleased to consider what answer half a dozen people whence you came, could give to your question? |
10799 | But, pray, Sir, to the immediate purpose of your present commission; since a commission it seems to be? |
10799 | But, to be insulted and defied by a rebel in one''s power, what prince can bear that? |
10799 | But, when I have no such hope, is it right[ you are a serious man, Sir] to make a venture that shall endanger my own morals? |
10799 | Can not I steal to some neighbouring house, where I may be concealed till I can get quite away? |
10799 | Can you take no pleasure in the promised visit of Lady Betty and my cousin Montague? |
10799 | Canst thou be more abandoned than they? |
10799 | Captain Devilson, what care I?--Do you see how you have disordered your lady? |
10799 | Captain Tomlinson, sayest thou? |
10799 | Could the dear creature put Dorcas upon telling this fib, yet want to save me one? |
10799 | Dear Ladies, is there no back- door for me to get out at while you hold him in talk? |
10799 | Devil, as these girls between them call me, what of devil am I, but in my contrivances? |
10799 | Did I court her at first with the allowance of her friends, her brother excepted? |
10799 | Did I not generously spare her, when in my power? |
10799 | Did you never go out by your- self, and discharge the coach or chair, and return>>> by another coach or chair? |
10799 | Didst thou imagine that such a fellow as that had bowels? |
10799 | Do I doubt, Sir, that you have not something to say for any thing you think fit to do? |
10799 | Do n''t I look devilishly down and concerned, Landlord? |
10799 | Do n''t you see, Madam, that your uncle wishes to find that we are married? |
10799 | Do not the lovers, when mutual consent awaits their wills, retire to coverts, and to darkness, to complete their wishes? |
10799 | Do they not both deserve it of me? |
10799 | Do you know anything of Colonel Morden, friend? |
10799 | Do you know such a man as Captain Tomlinson, my dearest life,[ aside,] your uncle''s friend? |
10799 | Do you think I may not insist upon her absolving me from this abominable oath? |
10799 | Does she not invade my province, thinkest thou? |
10799 | Dost think, Jack, that my face did not now also shine? |
10799 | Early riser as I am, how could he think to find me up thus early? |
10799 | For am I not a smart fellow, and a rake? |
10799 | For had not the dear creature already passed for my wife before no less than four worthy gentlemen of family and fortune? |
10799 | Good lack-- good lack!--What may be her story then, I pray? |
10799 | H.*** Now, Belford, what canst thou say in behalf of this sweet rogue of a lady? |
10799 | Habit, habit, Jack, seest thou not? |
10799 | Had I a rencounter with that brother? |
10799 | Had I not a cursed task of it? |
10799 | Had I not given a flagrant proof of this to the once most indulgent of parents? |
10799 | Had not that contrivance its effect at that time, for a procrastination? |
10799 | Had you not better see him? |
10799 | Has he not given you a flagrant specimen of what a man he is, and of what his is capable, by the disguises you saw him in? |
10799 | Has my beloved kept her word with me?--Whether are these billowy heavings owing more to love or to fear? |
10799 | Has she not broken her promise? |
10799 | Hast thou a mind tot see what it was I permitted Miss Howe to write to her lovely friend? |
10799 | Have I not enow of my own? |
10799 | Have I not often said, that human nature is a rogue? |
10799 | Have I not reason to think that she is coming about? |
10799 | Have I not said that human nature is a rogue? |
10799 | Have I not told thee our whole story? |
10799 | Have not those who have a right to her renounced that right? |
10799 | Have they not wilfully exposed her to dangers? |
10799 | Have you more to say than has been said? |
10799 | Have you no wish to see your uncle''s friend? |
10799 | Have you not been in the army? |
10799 | He has promised to keep from your uncle what has happened: but what will he think if he find you hold in this strange humour? |
10799 | He should have been quite angry-- For what gave I him the nod positive? |
10799 | Heartily? |
10799 | Her senses, thought I, are much livelier than mine.--What a devil have I done, that she should be so very implacable? |
10799 | How came she,( thought I, at the instant,) by all this penetration? |
10799 | How can that be? |
10799 | How did the dear creature look, Dorcas? |
10799 | How do you, Mr. Lovelace? |
10799 | How does she look? |
10799 | How goes it with thy uncle? |
10799 | How happy should I think myself to be admitted into their correspondence? |
10799 | How meanly must thou think of her, that thou couldst presume to be so guilty, and expect her to be so weak as to forgive thee? |
10799 | How oddly things come about!--But does any other of the Harlowes know where we are? |
10799 | How often, in the past twelve hours, have I wished that I could cry most confoundedly? |
10799 | I am loth to reproach myself, now the cruel creature has escaped me; For what would that do, but add to my torment? |
10799 | I asked, if she approved of the settlements? |
10799 | I begged excuse for sitting down, and asked, who was the minister of the place? |
10799 | I had a gentle reprimand for this light turn on so heavy an evil--''For what was the loss of beauty to the loss of a good husband?'' |
10799 | I hoped she had no objection to my bringing that lady and my cousin Montague up with me? |
10799 | I know the world; and will take the liberty to say, that if the young lady-- Captain Tomlinson, I think you are called? |
10799 | I started, and, in a haughty tone, is this, Sir, a question that must be answered before you can proceed in the business you have undertaken? |
10799 | I told thee, Belford, all I did: Was there any thing in it so very much amiss? |
10799 | I wait here only for a letter from Miss Howe-- that must determine me-- Determine you as to Mr. Lovelace, Madam? |
10799 | I was the affected with it, as I am afraid it was occasioned by the violent contentions between us.--But was I in fault? |
10799 | I was to mistrust myself, was I? |
10799 | If I have not your pardon before Captain Tomlinson comes to town, what shall I say to him? |
10799 | If he were a good preacher? |
10799 | If it be pride that restrains her, ought not that pride to be punished? |
10799 | If my advocate had nothing to say for me, what hope of carrying my cause? |
10799 | If shame, what a shame to be ashamed to communicate to her adorer''s sight the most admirable of her personal graces? |
10799 | If you are absolutely determined, be pleased to let me know what I shall say to your uncle? |
10799 | In what, then, am I so singularly vile? |
10799 | Indeed I heard him talking, thought not what he said, and am indifferent about it.--But what account does he give of himself? |
10799 | Indeed for all you have to spare-- For who knows what my spouse''s brother may attempt? |
10799 | Is it policy to show so open a resentment for innocent liberties, which, in her situation, she must so soon forgive? |
10799 | Is not one country as good to me as another, if I should be obliged to take another tour upon it? |
10799 | Is not thy uncle dead yet? |
10799 | Is she not an Harlowe? |
10799 | Is she not now yielding up her resentment for an attempt which she thinks she ought not to forgive? |
10799 | Is there no possibility of getting to a coach? |
10799 | Is this an answer to my question? |
10799 | Is this deified passion, in its greatest altitudes, fitted to stand the day? |
10799 | Is this the design of your flattering speeches? |
10799 | Is this the forgiveness that was the condition of my obedience? |
10799 | It is necessary that I should answer? |
10799 | It is not that I shall be of party against myself? |
10799 | Lay your hand upon your heart, and answer me, am I your wedded wife? |
10799 | Let me ask any rake in England, if, resolving to carry his point, he would have been so long about it? |
10799 | Let me beg of you-- What askest thou? |
10799 | May I not re- appeal this to your own breast, as well as to Captain Tomlinson''s treaty and letter? |
10799 | May not the ceremony be privately over, before his mediation can take place? |
10799 | Miss Howe''s answer to my last unreceived?--And shall I, Sir, be in such a HURRY, as if I thought my honour in danger if I delayed? |
10799 | Miss R. Give me leave to ask you, Madam, Is there no room to hope for accommodation? |
10799 | Mutual obligation is the very essence and soul of the social and commercial life:--Why should she be exempt from it? |
10799 | My dearest life!--Do you think that he would disapprove of the terms I have offered? |
10799 | My heart was perfectly easy, how could my stomach be otherwise? |
10799 | Need they know all that passes between my relations and you and me? |
10799 | No, Madam, that''s true, if she be good- humoured, as you say-- Has she been with you long, Madam? |
10799 | Not for my own sake, you know, did I wish you to take it; for what is it to me, if I am never reconciled to your family? |
10799 | Not in the way, said I!--Whither can the dogs be gone? |
10799 | Nothing can happen amiss, thou sorrowful dog!--What can happen amiss? |
10799 | Now- a- days!--A fool!--Have not her history- books told her that they were always so? |
10799 | O Jack, with such an invention, what occasion had I to carry my beloved to Mrs. Sinclair''s? |
10799 | O that I had not such a mixture of revenge and pride in my love, thought I!--But,( my old plea,) can not I make her amends at any time? |
10799 | Of Captain Singleton? |
10799 | Once again, why and for what all these convulsions? |
10799 | Once more wilt thou wonderingly question-- All this pains for a single girl? |
10799 | Or should Dorcas attend her for any of her commands on that head? |
10799 | Ought she not to be punished? |
10799 | Patience, puppy!--Canst thou not trust thy master? |
10799 | Perhaps, Sir, you would board, as well as lodge? |
10799 | Poor Miss Rawlins, thought I; and dost thou know how men go? |
10799 | Pr''ythee, Belford, forgive my nonsense, and my Vulcan- like metaphors-- Did I not tell thee, not that I am sick of love, but that I am mad with it? |
10799 | Pray, your Honour, said she, if I may be so bold, was madam ever a mamma? |
10799 | Saw you not how bad I was? |
10799 | Say, are we married, or are we not? |
10799 | See we not the natural bent of idiots and the crazed? |
10799 | See you not my Lord M. and Lady Sarah longing to bless you, for blessing me, and their whole family? |
10799 | Seest thou not that this unseasonable gravity is admitted to quell the palpitations of this unmanageable heart? |
10799 | Seest thou now how the raving girl threatens her mother? |
10799 | Shall I write to the Captain, and acquaint him, that we have no objection to it? |
10799 | She asked her if she would have bread and butter with her tea? |
10799 | She asked him if he thought Lady Betty and Miss Montague intended her a visit? |
10799 | She asked, if he thought I had hopes of prevailing on her to go back to town? |
10799 | She desired to know, if she would not breakfast? |
10799 | She paused-- then resuming-- and think you, Sir, that my uncle will refuse to receive a letter from me? |
10799 | She started, sighing-- Are you going, Sir? |
10799 | She talks of her father''s curse!--But have I not repaid him for it an hundred fold in the same coin? |
10799 | She then came up to me with a wrathful countenance: do you call your servant, Sir, to hinder me, between you, from going where I please? |
10799 | She then espied my new servant walking under the window, and asked if he were not one of mine? |
10799 | Silly fellow!--Did ever any man, thinkest thou, deceive a woman, but at the expense of his veracity; how, otherwise, can he be said to deceive? |
10799 | Sir, you must first allow me to repeat my question: Are you really, and bonâ fide, married to Miss Clarissa Harlowe? |
10799 | Specious seducer!--Only tell me if I can not get away from him by some back way? |
10799 | Surely he must deal with some fiend, or how could he have found me out? |
10799 | That I always took care to keep seals entire, and to preserve covers? |
10799 | That I am not at Sinclair''s? |
10799 | The Captain and I have agreed, that it shall be so insinuated occasionally-- And what''s thy opinion, Jack? |
10799 | The settlements still to be signed? |
10799 | The struggle only, Whether I am to have her in my own way, or in her''s? |
10799 | Then I fear her as much as I love her.--How shall my pride bear these reflections? |
10799 | Then pausing, Is that the way to Hendon? |
10799 | Then the busy Miss Rawlins fished on, to find out from her either a confirmation or disavowal of my story-- Was Lord M. my uncle? |
10799 | Then up from my seat stumped I-- what do you call these window- curtains, Madam? |
10799 | Then, Sir, you have no thoughts-- no thoughts--[looking still more sorrowfully,] of marrying this wonderful lady? |
10799 | Then, turning her face towards London, she seemed, by the motion of her handkerchief to her eyes, to weep; repenting[ who knows?] |
10799 | There''s no casting an eye upon her, is there, without her notice? |
10799 | Thinkest thou that I could bear to be outwitted? |
10799 | This must be all from education too-- Must it not, Belford? |
10799 | Thou knowest I never was a sordid villain to any of her inferiors-- Her inferiors, I may say-- For who is not her inferior? |
10799 | To what purpose brought I this angel( angel I must yet call her) to this hellish house?--And was I not meditating to do her deserved honour? |
10799 | To what purpose meet you? |
10799 | To what purpose should I meet you to- morrow morning? |
10799 | Tomlinson!--Why this undue condescension? |
10799 | Very true: How should she? |
10799 | Very well, Captain-- And was such a person employed on such an errand by her uncle? |
10799 | Was he really of opinion that Lady Betty would pay her a visit? |
10799 | Was it not crime enough to give occasion for those entreaties? |
10799 | Was she so persecuted in favour of a very disagreeable man, one Solmes, as to induce her to throw herself into my protection? |
10799 | Well but, Sir, have you then any commission to me from Mr. John Harlowe? |
10799 | Well observed-- Can''t you, Landlord, lend or sell me a pair of stockings, that will draw over these? |
10799 | Well, friend, what is your business with Mr. and Mrs. Lovelace? |
10799 | Well, my dearest life, what say you to your uncle''s expedient? |
10799 | Were it not for surprises now- and- then, how would an honest man know where to have them? |
10799 | What a triumph has her sex obtained in my thoughts by this trial, and this resistance? |
10799 | What can I have in view but peace and reconciliation? |
10799 | What can be still in his head, to endeavour to pass these stories upon strangers? |
10799 | What can you then think of Tomlinson''s declar- ing himself in favour of it upon inquiry? |
10799 | What canst thou say for her? |
10799 | What defence have I against a man, who, go where I will, can turn every one, even of the virtuous of my sex, in his favour?'' |
10799 | What had I to do to go out a license- hunting, at least till I had seen her, and made up matters with her? |
10799 | What hadst thou seen in the conduct of Clarissa Harlowe, that should encourage such an insult upon her as thou didst dare to make? |
10799 | What has my conduct been, that an insult of such a nature should be offered to me, and it would be a weakness in me to forgive? |
10799 | What have been her trials? |
10799 | What hinders, dearest Madam, what now hinders, but that Lady Betty Lawrance, when she comes, may be acquainted with the truth of every thing? |
10799 | What is his name? |
10799 | What is there in being enabled to boast, that I am worth more than I can use, or wish to use? |
10799 | What man or woman, who is covetous of power, or of making a right use of it? |
10799 | What need I( she asks me,) lock myself in,** if I am only reading past correspondencies? |
10799 | What pretence hast thou for tormenting me thus? |
10799 | What right, what title, have you to persecute me thus? |
10799 | What said my dear mother? |
10799 | What then but remorse can follow a forcible attempt? |
10799 | What was his conduct to you afterwards, that you should of a sudden change it? |
10799 | What widow, what servant, asks questions of a man with an equipage? |
10799 | What will the people below, who suppose us one as to the ceremony, think of so great a niceness? |
10799 | What would you have me answer? |
10799 | What''s the matter, Dorcas? |
10799 | What, my dear, would you have me say to the Captain to- morrow morning? |
10799 | What, pray, Sir, is your question? |
10799 | When, Sir, shall you want to come in? |
10799 | When, when was it to be? |
10799 | Whence, however, this strange rhapsody?--Is it owing to my being here? |
10799 | Where can a woman be safe, who has once entered the lists with a contriving and intrepid lover? |
10799 | Where is he? |
10799 | Where, Madam? |
10799 | Whither does that path lead, out yonder?--What is that town on the right hand called? |
10799 | Who can blame him? |
10799 | Who knows, thought I to myself, but more may come of this plot, than I had even promised myself? |
10799 | Who preached at the Chapel? |
10799 | Whom came you from? |
10799 | Why brought I such an angel into such a house? |
10799 | Why must I be thus pursued and haunted? |
10799 | Why not? |
10799 | Why now, Jack, were it not better, upon her own notions, that she seemed not so sensible as she will make herself to be, if she is very angry? |
10799 | Why then thy teasing impertinence? |
10799 | Why will these girls put me upon my master- strokes? |
10799 | Why, Sir, my business is only to know if your honour be here, and to be spoken with; or if you shall be here for any time? |
10799 | Why, Sir, should I be so much afraid of my brother? |
10799 | Will not these trembling fingers, which twice have refused to direct the pen, fail me in the arduous moment? |
10799 | Will you permit me to attend you in the morning, before I set out on my return? |
10799 | Will you, Madam, consent that things pass as before with the people below? |
10799 | With a face so unblushing, how darest thou appear in my presence? |
10799 | Would there have been a second of time difference, had you come up slowly? |
10799 | Wouldst thou make a merit to me, that thou didst not utterly ruin her whom thou oughtest to have protected? |
10799 | Yes, Jack-- But is not this girl a CLARISSA?--And who knows, but kind fortune, as a reward for my perseverance, may toss me in her charming friend? |
10799 | Yes, ride, Jack; for am I not lame? |
10799 | Yes, wife, for who knows what cautions the dear fugitive may have given in apprehension of me? |
10799 | Yet have I not always done her justice? |
10799 | Yet what mercy does she show me? |
10799 | You need not question his liberality; but one house can not hold us.--Why, if it would, did I fly from him, to seek refuge among strangers?'' |
10799 | You will not wonder that I am grave on this detection-- Detection, must I call it? |
10799 | You will then breakfast with me, Captain? |
10799 | Your servant, Sir,--Mr. Lovelace, I presume? |
10799 | [ But why do I now, when you seem to be in so good a train, puzzle and perplex you with my retrospections? |
10799 | [ Didst thou never hear the good folks talk of taking Heaven by storm?] |
10799 | [ I must write my free sentiments in this case; for have I not seen the angel?] |
10799 | and had I not then reason to fear, that the lady would find enough to make her dislike this house? |
10799 | and that I am not still further prepared to support my story? |
10799 | be not you the inflicter, who have been the cause of it: but spare me, I beseech you, spare me!--for how have I deserved this treatment from you? |
10799 | been my servant upwards of seven years? |
10799 | but can you think of force to such a fine creature? |
10799 | for disappointing me of a promised interview? |
10799 | for dost thou think I would have tamely given up the lady to Townsend''s tars? |
10799 | have I not told thee so twenty times over? |
10799 | hide me!--Is he gone? |
10799 | how can you put such a question? |
10799 | into such company?--And why do I not stop my ears to the sirens, who, knowing my aversion to wedlock, are perpetually touching that string? |
10799 | lie in the house? |
10799 | never, my angel!--Is this forgiveness? |
10799 | or are you not yet married? |
10799 | or have had so much compunction as I have had? |
10799 | said he, who can but pity him? |
10799 | said she, lifting up her lovely face, and clasped hands, what is at last to be my destiny? |
10799 | said she: the license still to be obtained? |
10799 | say.--Who knows, but that I may in time, in compliment to myself, bring her to think well of thee, Jack? |
10799 | so little a way?'' |
10799 | that thus far I rave against? |
10799 | thinkest thou that I will take all this roguish pains, and be so often called villain for nothing? |
10799 | who can say as you say? |
10799 | why beat you thus together? |
10799 | wouldst thou have me decline a trial that they make for the honour of a sex we all so dearly love? |
10799 | yet) glittering in the collected riches of his vast empire? |
9881 | ''And wilt thou, Lovelace, abuse that power which--''Which what, Belford? |
9881 | ''Are not provocations and temptations the tests of virtue? |
9881 | ''Do you incline to go to Florence to your cousin Morden? |
9881 | ''Forgive me, Madam-- I have just done-- Have I not, in your opinion, hazarded my life to redeem you from oppression? |
9881 | ''Is there but one Lovelace in the world? |
9881 | ''May not then the success of him, who could carry her thus far, be allowed to be an encouragement for him to try to carry her farther?'' |
9881 | ''Now, what were her inducements to this correspondence?'' |
9881 | ''That her regrets increase instead of diminish? |
9881 | ''That she shall not be easy while she is with me? |
9881 | ''Was a person of virtue to be prevailed upon to break through her apparent, her acknowledged duty, upon any consideration?'' |
9881 | ( methinks thou askest with surprise) Dost thou question this most admirable of women?--The virtue of a CLARISSA dost thou question? |
9881 | * Canst thou tell me, Jack, who says this? |
9881 | * Why should you not have permitted him to send for Lord M.''s chaplain? |
9881 | * Yet what means the man by foregoing the opportunities he has had to declare himself?--What mean his complaints of my restrictions to Mrs. Greme? |
9881 | *) make me unhappy, when novelty has lost its charms, and when, mind and person, she is all my own? |
9881 | ***** What can be done with a woman who is above flattery, and despises all praise but that which flows from the approbation of her own heart? |
9881 | -- But pray, Sir, interrupting him, how came you to apprehend that I should revoke my intention? |
9881 | A Clarissa!--Was your love for such a man above your reason? |
9881 | Above your resolution? |
9881 | All hands at work in preparation for London.--What makes my heart beat so strong? |
9881 | All this is mighty good, Sir: But to what does it tend? |
9881 | Am I already lord of the destiny of a Clarissa Harlowe? |
9881 | Am I already the reformed man thou resolvest I should be, before I had the least encouragement given me? |
9881 | And I verily think I should be inclined to spare her all further trial( and yet what trial has she had?) |
9881 | And again the wretch, instead of pressing his former question, asked me, If I forgave him for the humble suit he had made to me? |
9881 | And am I so reduced, as that, to save the poor remains of my reputation in the world''s eye, I must watch the gracious motion from this man''s lips? |
9881 | And as to this man, what can I do? |
9881 | And can I be a villain to such an angel!--I hope not-- But why, Belford, why, once more, puttest thou me in mind, that she may be overcome? |
9881 | And can she keep this love at bay? |
9881 | And can there be a necessity for me to answer this? |
9881 | And can you not think it is hard for a good parent to imagine herself under the unhappy necessity of so treating her woman- grown daughter? |
9881 | And do I not see that I shall need nothing but patience, in order to have all power with me? |
9881 | And do not her faults bring more disgrace upon a husband than even upon herself?'' |
9881 | And does this lady spare me? |
9881 | And for which her own family will not forgive her? |
9881 | And had not the rencounter then happened? |
9881 | And if he had, would not there have been an end of all his pretensions and hopes? |
9881 | And is her virtue founded in pride?--And, if the answer to these questions be affirmative, must she not then be a woman?'' |
9881 | And is not the man the most wicked of plotters? |
9881 | And is she capable of affectation? |
9881 | And may not such an apprehension give her an irreconcilable displeasure against me? |
9881 | And now I mention that letter, why dost thou not wish me joy, Jack? |
9881 | And now, Belford, what wilt thou say, if, like the fly buzzing about the bright taper, I had like to have singed the silken wings of my liberty? |
9881 | And now, let me tell thee, that never was joy so complete as mine!--But let me inquire, is not the angel flown away? |
9881 | And shall I marry a woman, who has given me reason to doubt the preference she has for me? |
9881 | And shall I not first see the issue of one application? |
9881 | And shall that necessary increase of care sit uneasy upon us, because we are grown up to stature and womanhood? |
9881 | And then I asked him, what he really, and in his most deliberate mind, would advise me to, in my present situation? |
9881 | And then for a little hint at reprisal-- am I not justified in my resolutions of trying her virtue, who is resolved, as I may say, to try mine? |
9881 | And then, did I ever make him any promises? |
9881 | And what can a lover say to his mistress, if she will neither let him lie nor swear? |
9881 | And what could the lady say to this? |
9881 | And what did you intend to do to Mr. Solmes? |
9881 | And what have you not borne from them? |
9881 | And what results?--''Is then the divine Clarissa capable of loving a man whom she ought not to love? |
9881 | And what was this? |
9881 | And what, Madam, will gaining time do? |
9881 | And what, at this rate, is the general conclusion to be drawn from the premises?--Is it not, That no man ought to be vain? |
9881 | And when our dangers multiply, both from within and without, do not our parents know, that their vigilance ought to be doubled? |
9881 | And whether she be to be a wife at the first or at the second hand? |
9881 | And who ever knew a rake stick at any thing? |
9881 | And who has a right to controul a father''s judgment in his own family, and in relation to his own child? |
9881 | And who knows what opportunities a man in love may have against himself? |
9881 | And who shall put her to this trial? |
9881 | And why is her own reliance on my honour so late and so reluctantly shown? |
9881 | And why shouldst thou tempt her virtue?--Why shouldst thou wish to try where there is no reason to doubt? |
9881 | And will not the reflections upon that wrong( what though it may be construed in my favour? |
9881 | And will you, will you thus ungenerously, Mr. Lovelace, take advantage of my fears? |
9881 | And wo n''t it be admirable, if, either through fear, fright, or good liking, we can get my beloved to accept of Dorcas Wykes for a bed- fellow? |
9881 | And yet, on second thoughts, am I not a rake, as it is called? |
9881 | And you will be honnerable and kind to my dearest young lady, God love her.--But who can be unkind to she? |
9881 | And, if not, was she to be so prevailed upon to prevent an apprehended evil only? |
9881 | And, indeed, for what now should she plot? |
9881 | Are you not gone off?--With a Lovelace too? |
9881 | But I am afraid that you was too scrupulous: for did he not resent that reference? |
9881 | But again, let me stop.--Is there not something wrong, has there not been something wrong, in this divine creature? |
9881 | But are not all rakes sad fellows?--And art not thou, to thy little power, as bad as any? |
9881 | But can it be your opinion, that he intends to humble me down to the level of his mean pride? |
9881 | But can the heart of man be so very vile? |
9881 | But do you think I might not be safe and private in London? |
9881 | But had he not been passive, as you call it, what would you have done to Mr. Solmes? |
9881 | But has she had the candour, the openness, to acknowledge that love? |
9881 | But has she not, as above, already taken steps, which she herself condemns? |
9881 | But here comes the widow with Dorcas Wykes in her hand, and I am to introduce them both to my fair- one? |
9881 | But how came it to pass, that one man could get out at the garden- door, and no more? |
9881 | But how shall I do to make my fair- one keep her temper on the intimation? |
9881 | But how wilt thou hinder the lady from apprizing her friend of the real name? |
9881 | But if she will not, what a selfishness would there be in my love to you, were I to wish you to forego your duty for my sake? |
9881 | But if you had not met him, you see that he was resolved to visit them, and well attended too: and what must have been the consequence? |
9881 | But in exercising that talent, chooses rather to turn its eye outward than inward? |
9881 | But is it not a confounded thing that I can not fasten an obligation upon this proud beauty? |
9881 | But is it not my duty to try for it? |
9881 | But is not that pride abated? |
9881 | But knowest thou not my aversion to the state of shackles?--And is she not IN MY POWER? |
9881 | But let me ask thee, Is not calamity the test of virtue? |
9881 | But let me ask you, Madam, What have you borne from me? |
9881 | But let me, in my turn, ask thee-- Is not, may not her virtue be founded rather in pride than in principle? |
9881 | But once more, consider, could you possibly obtain that delay which seems to be your only dependence, whether you may not be closer confined? |
9881 | But seest thou not now( as I think I do) the wind outstripping fair one flying from her love to her love? |
9881 | But since I can not, will you be so good as to tell me what you would wish to have done? |
9881 | But what could I say to this?--Extorted from him, as it seemed to me, rather as the effect of his compassion than his love? |
9881 | But what dost think Deb''s name is to be? |
9881 | But what, methinks thou askest, is to become of the lady if she fail? |
9881 | But why did not the man show me these letters last night? |
9881 | But why should she be more concerned for the safety of others than they were for their own? |
9881 | But why shoulde it? |
9881 | But why will this admirable creature urge her destiny? |
9881 | But why, as in the chariot, as in the inn, at alighting, all heart- bursting grief, my dearest creature? |
9881 | But why, but why unhappy, my dearest life? |
9881 | But you ask me, if I would treat Mr. Lovelace, were he to be in Mr. Hickman''s place, as I do Mr. Hickman? |
9881 | But you want to clear up things-- what can you clear up? |
9881 | But, once more, can it be? |
9881 | By all this, seest thou not how greatly preferable it is, on twenty accounts, to pursue a difficult rather than an easy chace? |
9881 | By such exalted qualities? |
9881 | Ca n''t you go on, Sir? |
9881 | Ca n''t you go on, Sir? |
9881 | Can I avoid concern, when those bickerings are on my account? |
9881 | Can he, dare he, mock the Almighty? |
9881 | Can she make him, who has been accustomed to triumph over other women, tremble? |
9881 | Can you expect to be happy? |
9881 | Can you think that Heaven will seal to the black passions of its depraved creatures? |
9881 | Common bruit!--Is virtue to be established by common bruit only?--Has her virtue ever been proved?--Who has dared to try her virtue? |
9881 | Did I ever profess a love for him? |
9881 | Did I ever wish for the continuance of his address? |
9881 | Did I not furnish you with stories enough, without hers, against myself, to augment your credit with your cunning masters? |
9881 | Did she ever receive him as a lover? |
9881 | Did she ever, she asks, make him any promises? |
9881 | Did she persist in it against parental prohibition? |
9881 | Did they not, at their own church, cluster together like bees, when they saw me enter it? |
9881 | Did you not do for the best at the time? |
9881 | Didst thou ever before hear of a man uttering solemn things by an involuntary impulse, in defiance of premeditation, and of all his proud schemes? |
9881 | Do n''t you remember his pragmatical triumph, as told you by your aunt, and prided in by that saucy Betty Barnes, from his own foolish mouth? |
9881 | Do not their grandmothers give them one easy rule-- Men are to ask-- Women are to deny? |
9881 | Do you propose, Sir, said I, to take up your lodgings in the house where I shall lodge? |
9881 | Do you think me the jay in the fable? |
9881 | Do you think that my unhappy circumstances will alter my notions of my own duty so far as I shall be enabled to perform it? |
9881 | Does not your brother''s project convince you more and more of this? |
9881 | Does she not outdo me at every fair weapon? |
9881 | Except your mother, who has no will of her own, have any of them common sense? |
9881 | For how should I have resisted a condescending, a kneeling father, had he been able to have kept his temper with me? |
9881 | For in that period do we not generally attract the eyes of the other sex, and become the subject of their addresses, and not seldom of their attempts? |
9881 | For is not a wife the keeper of a man''s honour? |
9881 | Grief so extreme: no pleasure in prospect, nor so much as in wish-- O my dear, who could think of entering into so solemn an engagement? |
9881 | Has not God commanded us to bless and curse not? |
9881 | Has not your family, Madam, some one tradesman they deal with, who has conveniences of this kind? |
9881 | Has she been capable of error? |
9881 | Has she not made me doubt her love? |
9881 | Has she not taken officious pains to declare that she was not averse to Solmes for any respect she had to me? |
9881 | Hast thou not been a witness of my ravings on this score? |
9881 | Hast thou not reason to think it so? |
9881 | Have I not had it in my heart to do some good that thou canst not remind me of? |
9881 | Have I not, in the height of them, vowed revenge upon the faithless charmer? |
9881 | Have I offered to defy the laws of society, as this brother of yours must do, if any thing be intended by this project? |
9881 | Have we not suffered in the same cause? |
9881 | Have you any acquaintance at Windsor? |
9881 | He asked me to give him leave to propose, whether I chose to set out next day to either of his aunts? |
9881 | He asked whether I would choose to lodge in the town of Windsor, or out of it? |
9881 | He asked, if I had considered whither to have them directed? |
9881 | He had the thought which I had not( for what had I to do with thinking, who had it not when I stood most in need of it?) |
9881 | He is not a bashful man.--But you say, I inspire people with an awe of me.--An awe, my dear!--As how? |
9881 | How can I obtain possession without litigation, and but by my trustees? |
9881 | How can a daughter of spirits bear such language; such looks too with the language; and not have a longing mind to disobey? |
9881 | How comes it about, I wonder, that a young lady so noted for predominating generosity, should not be uniformly generous? |
9881 | How could this man, with such powers of right thinking, be so far depraved by evil habits, as to disgrace his talents by wrong acting? |
9881 | How often, Mr. Lovelace, must I repeat, that I will not litigate with my father? |
9881 | How shall I take it? |
9881 | Humble a woman, and may she not be effectually humbled? |
9881 | I am accustomed to be preferred, let me tell thee, by thy equals in rank too, though thy inferiors in merit: But who is not so? |
9881 | I asked him( to hear what he would say) if he could recommend me to any particular place in London? |
9881 | I asked him, if he thought such enormities as these, such defiances of the laws of society, would have passed unpunished? |
9881 | I asked, in some confusion, what he would say? |
9881 | I do to every body; and why? |
9881 | I have but this one chance for it; for is not the day after to- morrow Wednesday? |
9881 | I intended, indeed, to have stood it: And, if I had, how know I by whose name I might now have been called? |
9881 | I may send to you, although you are forbid to write to me; may I not?--For that is not a correspondence( is it?) |
9881 | I now, my dear, began to revive into a little more warmth of attention.--''And all, Madam, for what?'' |
9881 | I shall have him[ Who knows?] |
9881 | I think you mentioned one to me, Sir-- Did you not? |
9881 | I told him I designed to do so, through you-- And shall I beg of you, my dear, to cause the honest creature to be sent to? |
9881 | If I can have her without marriage, who can blame me for trying? |
9881 | If all this is heavy, lay your hand to your heart, and ask yourself, why you have deserved it? |
9881 | If he has had any extraordinary trouble on my account, may he not thank himself for it? |
9881 | If his pretences to reformation are but pretences, what must be his intent? |
9881 | If impeccable, how came she by her impeccability? |
9881 | If mutual, does it not imply mutual trust, mutual confidence? |
9881 | If not what her niceness makes her think blameworthy, why does she blame herself? |
9881 | If not, what may be the consequence? |
9881 | If thou designest to be honest, methinkst thou sayest, Why should not Singleton''s plot be over with thee, as it is with her brother? |
9881 | If well, whose modesty is it he distresses, but that of his own wife? |
9881 | If you would have me rely upon your honour, why should you doubt of mine? |
9881 | In justice to the man I shall have, I have vowed this: for, my dear, must I not be miserable, if you are so? |
9881 | In what a strong light, then, must that error appear to her, that should so totally turn her heart against me, herself not a principal in the case? |
9881 | In what manner do you expect to confirm it? |
9881 | Indeed, my dear, I was very ill. And was I, moreover, to be as ready to accept his offer as if I were afraid he never would repeat it? |
9881 | Is every body to take advantage thus of the weakness of my temper? |
9881 | Is it in my power to take your advice, if I should think it ever so right to take it? |
9881 | Is it not dealing ingenuously? |
9881 | Is it now, my dear, a time for you to be afraid of being precipitated? |
9881 | Is it so hard for you, my dear, to be treated like a child? |
9881 | Is it thus, that the more thou knowest me, the less thou seest reason to approve of me?--And can art and design enter into a breast so celestial? |
9881 | Is not that seen every day, from the prince to the peasant? |
9881 | Is not the space from sixteen to twenty- one that which requires this care, more than at any time of a young woman''s life? |
9881 | Is not then the whole sex concerned that this trial should be made? |
9881 | Is this a time, Mr. Lovelace, is this a proper occasion taken, to give yourself these high airs to me, a young creature destitute of protection? |
9881 | It would be a miracle, as thou sayest, if this lady can save herself-- And having gone so far, how can I recede? |
9881 | It would be a pain to either to do so: What then is it in either''s approving of her own natural bias, but making a virtue of necessity? |
9881 | Jack, when I see my angel, when I am admitted to the presence of this radiant beauty, what will become of all this vapouring? |
9881 | James and Arabella may have their motives; but what can be said for a father acting as this father has acted? |
9881 | Joy, of what? |
9881 | Let LOVE then be the motive:--Love of whom? |
9881 | Let me go back, then-- let me, before it is too late, go back, that it may not be worse for both-- What mean you by this forcible treatment? |
9881 | Let me hear, said I,( willing to try if he had any particular view,) what you think most advisable? |
9881 | Lord have mercy upon me!--But can it be? |
9881 | Love you still!--How can I help it, if I would? |
9881 | Lovelace?--said I-- Would you thus expose yourself? |
9881 | Malice and ill- will, sitting in judgment upon my character, may not give sentence in my favour: But what of your own knowledge have you against me? |
9881 | May I send it safely by your old man? |
9881 | May not more Lovelaces be attracted by so fine a figure? |
9881 | May there not be other Lovelaces, thou askest, who, attracted by her beauty, may endeavour to prevail with her? |
9881 | Mean time, would I go to Lady Betty Lawrance''s( Lady Sarah was a melancholy woman)? |
9881 | More than a match? |
9881 | Must I never be at liberty to follow my own judgment? |
9881 | Must not all, the dreadful all follow, that is torture to my heart but to think of? |
9881 | My inducements to this are not owing to virtue: But if they were, what hope could I have of affecting thee by pleas arising from it? |
9881 | My maiden vow, as I may call it!--For did not the sex begin with me? |
9881 | My mind is, that you, Sir, should leave me out of hand-- How often must I tell you so? |
9881 | Nor ask thou, shall the man be guilty, yet expect the woman to be guiltless, and even unsuspectible? |
9881 | O Sir, do you want to be complimented into repentance and salvation? |
9881 | O my dearest creature, do these preparations mean only a trial? |
9881 | Of persisting in that error? |
9881 | One evil draws on another after it; and how knows she, or any body, where it may stop? |
9881 | Or is it Solomon?--King Solomon-- Thou remembrest to have read of such a king, dost thou not? |
9881 | Ought not a balance to be struck; and the credit carried to my account?--Yet I must own too, that I half grudge Johnny this blooming maiden? |
9881 | Shall I go and fetch the worthy woman myself? |
9881 | Shall I send? |
9881 | Shall not others as they please? |
9881 | She consented; and asked what security I expected? |
9881 | She must first know it herself, monkey, must she not? |
9881 | She would not see him in a dishabille for the world-- What can she mean by it? |
9881 | Shun not, therefore, my dear soul, further trials, nor hate me for making them.--''For what woman can be said to be virtuous till she has been tried? |
9881 | So lively the one, so vigilant, so prudent both, who would not wish to outwit such girls, and to be able to twirl them round his finger? |
9881 | So, Sir, you would have me employ a lawyer, would you, notwithstanding what I have ever declared as to litigating with my father? |
9881 | Steps, which the world and her own family did not think her capable of taking? |
9881 | Surely I am my own mistress: surely I need not ask your leave to make what terms I please for myself, so long as I break none with you? |
9881 | Tell me not of politeness; tell me not of generosity; tell me not of compassion-- Is she not a match for me? |
9881 | That I am not one who improve upon her in my conversation and address?'' |
9881 | That if I think she deserves the compliments I make her, I may pride myself in those arts, by which I have made a fool of so extraordinary a person? |
9881 | That she knows better than to value herself upon my volubility? |
9881 | That she shall never forgive herself for meeting me, nor me for seducing her away?'' |
9881 | That she will take care of herself; and, since her friends thing it not worth while to pursue her, she will be left to her own care? |
9881 | That they are raised( instigated shall I say?) |
9881 | That you are determined to have it in your power to favour or reject me totally, as you please?'' |
9881 | That your generosity should fail in an instance where policy, prudence, gratitude, would not permit it to fail? |
9881 | The man to be so bashful; the woman to want so much courting!--How shall two such come together-- no kind mediatress in the way? |
9881 | The wretch you are with, we are told, is every hour triumphing and defying-- Must not these informations aggravate? |
9881 | Then who says Miss Clarissa Harlowe is the paragon of virtue?--Is virtue itself? |
9881 | Then, what a triumph would it be to the Harlowe pride, were I now to marry this lady? |
9881 | Thou seest what bias here takes-- And wilt thou doubt that mine will be determined by it? |
9881 | To banish me from thee, to insist so rigorously upon my absence, in order to bring me closer to thee, and make the blessing dear? |
9881 | To be clamoured at for repairs studied for, rather than really wanted? |
9881 | To be denied a fox- chace, for breaking down a fence upon my own grounds? |
9881 | To leave you now, would be to lose you for ever-- Am I to be thus compelled? |
9881 | To my point--''What must that virtue be which will not stand a trial?--What that woman who would wish to shun it?'' |
9881 | To the test then, as I said, since now I have the question brought home to me, Whether I am to have a wife? |
9881 | Upon these principles, what had I to do but to construe her silence into contemptuous displeasure? |
9881 | Was a daughter ever known who had higher notions of the filial duty, of the parental authority? |
9881 | Was he afraid of giving me too much pleasure? |
9881 | Was he not called, by his very soldiers, on one of his triumphant entries into Rome, the bald- pated lecher? |
9881 | Was it Socrates? |
9881 | Was not the great Caesar a great rake as to women? |
9881 | Was there ever a giddier creature?--Yet this is the celebrated, the blazing Clarissa-- Clarissa what? |
9881 | We have had a charming dialogue-- She flung from me in a passion-- So-- What''s now to be done? |
9881 | Well, but how comes all this about? |
9881 | Well, but what in such a situation is to be done? |
9881 | Were not her faults, before this, numerous enough? |
9881 | Were not his objections as to the publicness of the place, I asked him, as strong now as before? |
9881 | What a wicked schemer you are, Sir!--Who shall avenge upon you the still greater evils which you have been guilty of? |
9881 | What an useful lesson would this afford, were it properly inculcated at the time that the tempted mind was balancing upon a doubtful adventure? |
9881 | What books can tell her more than she knows? |
9881 | What can one oppose but sullens, when it would be unpardonable so much as to think of lifting up a finger? |
9881 | What cause have I given you to treat me with so much severity and so little confidence? |
9881 | What could I say? |
9881 | What could he mean by letting slip such a one as that you mention? |
9881 | What do I keep fellows idling in the country for, but to fall in love, and even to marry those whom I would have them marry? |
9881 | What followed this execution? |
9881 | What for a mother? |
9881 | What for an aunt? |
9881 | What for uncles?--Who can have patience with such fellows and fellowesses? |
9881 | What had I to do but to try for a palliation of my confusion, since it served me not? |
9881 | What is that, Sir? |
9881 | What is the conclusion to be drawn from these premises? |
9881 | What is the love of a rakish heart? |
9881 | What likelihood of corrupting a man who has no hope, no ambition? |
9881 | What may not both men and women be brought to do in a mortified state? |
9881 | What mean you, Mr. Lovelace? |
9881 | What means he by it, she asks, yet forego such opportunities as he had? |
9881 | What mind is superior to calamity? |
9881 | What now sayest thou to me, Belford? |
9881 | What politeness can be expected from such a man? |
9881 | What say you, Mr. Lovelace? |
9881 | What sayest thou to the lady, Jack? |
9881 | What signifies wishing, my dear? |
9881 | What will signify expostulations against a ceremony performed? |
9881 | What, my dear, would you clear up? |
9881 | What?--Why will she not,''if once subdued, be always subdued?'' |
9881 | When a general must regulate himself by the motions of a watchful adversary, how can he say beforehand what he will, or what he will not, do? |
9881 | When has that been questionable? |
9881 | When we had got in the chariot, and it began to move, he asked me, whether I had any objection to go to Lord M.''s Hertfordshire seat? |
9881 | Whence can this be, but from a likeness in nature? |
9881 | Whence this change, Sir? |
9881 | Whether I chose to go to either of Lord M.''s seats; that of Berks, or that in the county we were in? |
9881 | Whether I chose to have private lodgings procured for me in either of those ladies''neighbourhood, as were once my thoughts? |
9881 | Whither, Sir, do you draw me?--Leave me this moment-- Do you seek to keep me till my return shall grow dangerous or impracticable? |
9881 | Who can avoid hesitating when he thinks of an offence against her? |
9881 | Who has declared that she will not marry me, till she has hopes of my reformation? |
9881 | Who knows what such a man may do? |
9881 | Who will be afraid of a trail for this divine creature? |
9881 | Who will dare to form plots and stratagems against my wife? |
9881 | Who, so unprepared, could seem to be so ready? |
9881 | Whose daughter is she?--And is she not a daughter? |
9881 | Why did you meet him then, chariot and six, horsemen, all prepared by him? |
9881 | Why mention you, my dear, the saving you from mortifications, who have gone off with a man? |
9881 | Why rises it to my throat in such half- choking flutters, when I think of what this removal may do for me? |
9881 | Why said he with a man, instead of with him? |
9881 | Why should I not, when it is as much the desire of my heart, as it is of thine, to prevent mischief? |
9881 | Why should narrowness run away with the praises due to a noble expansion of heart? |
9881 | Why should she hate the man who loves her upon proof? |
9881 | Why this squeamishness then, honest Joseph? |
9881 | Why to Windsor? |
9881 | Why will she defy the power she is absolutely dependent upon? |
9881 | Why will she deny me her company, till she makes me lose my patience, and lay myself open to her resentment? |
9881 | Why will she put me upon looking back? |
9881 | Why will she still wish to my face that she had never left her father''s house? |
9881 | Why would not the dear creature accept of me, when I so sincerely offered myself to her acceptance? |
9881 | Why, Sir, do n''t I neither use ceremony enough with you? |
9881 | Why, is she not here? |
9881 | Why, says he, did I not think of it before?--And snatching my hand, Shall I write, Madam? |
9881 | Why? |
9881 | Will the man you are with part willingly with you? |
9881 | Would I choose to go to London( for a very few days only) in order to furnish myself with clothes? |
9881 | Would she not have me think I have a precious soul, as well as she? |
9881 | Would she not, do you think, my dear, be prevailed upon to have the communication made to her, in confidence? |
9881 | Would you have me visit the owners of the borrowed dresses in their own clothes? |
9881 | Would you stay to be Solmes''s wife?--Can this be your determination at last? |
9881 | Would you thus expose me?--Is this your generosity? |
9881 | Would you, Mr. Lovelace, in earnest, advise me to think of going to London? |
9881 | Yet what stead has either your prudence or your duty stood you in, with people so strangely determined? |
9881 | Yet, in my disapprobation of that, I judge by that event only: for who would have divined it would have been concluded as it did? |
9881 | You would not surely wish, said he, to fall into your brother''s hands by such a violent measure as this? |
9881 | Your advice had great weight with me just then, as well as his reasons, and the consideration of my unhappy situation: But what could I say? |
9881 | Your merits, my dear, but aggravate your fault.--Something of fresh aggravation every hour.--How can any favour be expected? |
9881 | Your poor mother-- but why should I afflict you? |
9881 | Your sufferings then, if you please, Sir? |
9881 | Yourself being judge, I suppose, Sir? |
9881 | [ draw me not thus-- How dare you, Sir? |
9881 | and her sorrow for putting herself out of his reach, that is to say, for meeting me? |
9881 | and if thou pleadest honour, ought not honour to be mutual? |
9881 | and so soon? |
9881 | and warning given of him to the wives, as well as to the daughter of his fellow- citizens? |
9881 | are you so critical then? |
9881 | does she propose to reform me for? |
9881 | for he had the devil of a wife-- Or who? |
9881 | how, that that man kept aloof, as it were, and pursued us not; nor ran back to alarm the house? |
9881 | let me only know whether you intend to leave me; or whether I have only escaped from one confinement to another? |
9881 | methinks thou askest.--Thou, Lovelace, dealest in wonders, yet aimest not at the marvellous!--How did all this come about? |
9881 | of my wishes to prevent mischief? |
9881 | said I.--Know you of any convenient lodgings there? |
9881 | that I had nothing to fear from meeting with parents who so dearly loved me.-- How could I be complaisant, my dear, to such a man as this? |
9881 | thought I,[ but I charge thee, that thou let not any of the sex know my exultation,*] Is it so soon come to this? |
9881 | what had I to do to give him hope that I would personally acquaint him with the reason for my change of mind, if I did change it? |
9881 | yet how, as long as I am situated, can I put them right? |
61344 | ''Do you see this woman? 61344 A guardian?" |
61344 | About the whole thing, about this poor pitiful, pitiable human race that''s got itself into such an awful mess? |
61344 | Address? |
61344 | After you''ve left Harvard what are you going to be? |
61344 | And after your birthday was changed from the fifth of March--? |
61344 | And are you going to? |
61344 | And are you? |
61344 | And did he say how big a damn fool he was himself? |
61344 | And did he say how it had ended? |
61344 | And did you give it to her? |
61344 | And did you have, mudda? |
61344 | And did you never get any idea at all? |
61344 | And do you get it? |
61344 | And does she think I''d torture her? |
61344 | And for another? |
61344 | And has that certainty got anything to do with me? |
61344 | And have you any explanation why? |
61344 | And her parents''names? |
61344 | And if I see, would Hildred also see? |
61344 | And if you ca n''t find out pretty certainly whose son I am--? |
61344 | And is he coming back for you here? |
61344 | And is that what you''re going to do now? |
61344 | And that I...."Oh, Tom, you''ll be reasonable, wo n''t you? |
61344 | And then? |
61344 | And was he? |
61344 | And what about college? |
61344 | And what did she give you, Lord Ronald, my son? 61344 And what does he say to things now?" |
61344 | And when daytime comes could I go to the jail? |
61344 | And when''ll that be? |
61344 | And when? |
61344 | And who in hell gave you authority to do that? |
61344 | And you do n''t? |
61344 | And you really think he''s your father, Tom? |
61344 | And you were fond of her? |
61344 | And you_ don''t_--feel it there? |
61344 | Are you all right, darling? |
61344 | Are you awake, Tom? |
61344 | Are you sorry it happened, Tom? |
61344 | Are you, Kid? 61344 Ask me what?" |
61344 | At Harvard they call you the Whitelaw Baby, do n''t they? |
61344 | At any rate we know what to do about Tad, do n''t we? 61344 Because I''m the mother? |
61344 | Boy''s name? |
61344 | But had n''t you told them anything about it? |
61344 | But how did you know? |
61344 | But if I''m not? |
61344 | But if it''s to do them good? |
61344 | But ought we to do good to people against their wills? |
61344 | But what would you like better? |
61344 | But why not, if it was proved that--? |
61344 | But would n''t that be something like burglary? |
61344 | But would n''t you be arrested? |
61344 | But would you mind telling me, sir, something of what you''d expect from me? |
61344 | But you always love your wife when you''re married to her, do n''t you? |
61344 | But you raised an alarm? 61344 But you want me, do n''t you, mudda?" |
61344 | But you wo n''t go on doing it, not as far as I''m concerned? |
61344 | But you would n''t if I asked you not to, would you, ma? |
61344 | But, Mr. Honeybun, suppose someone took something from you? 61344 But,"the boy cried in alarm,"where can we go, if we do n''t?" |
61344 | Ca n''t I be-- what I''ve made myself? |
61344 | Ca n''t you do better than that? |
61344 | Call it off? 61344 Can I go to it?" |
61344 | Can I have a word with you in private? |
61344 | Can he make himself love you, ma? |
61344 | Can you beat it? 61344 Can you drive a car?" |
61344 | Changed toward us-- toward me? |
61344 | Could I see his nurse? |
61344 | Could n''t I be your son-- and make my home somewhere else? |
61344 | Did I have the same fadda what Gracie had? |
61344 | Did I say anything about letting a woman in on my game? |
61344 | Did I? |
61344 | Did he tell you what I said to him, that nothing would induce me to belong to the family that had produced him? |
61344 | Did n''t I tell you the last time I saw you that if you ever interfered with me again--? |
61344 | Did n''t your mother ever take you to see anyone? |
61344 | Did she ever say anything about it, about what kind of day it was, or anything at all that you can remember? |
61344 | Did she tell you so? |
61344 | Did she--he pulled himself together for the big words--"did she take cyanide of potassium?" |
61344 | Did you ever see Tad over there? |
61344 | Did you like it over there? |
61344 | Did you like it? |
61344 | Do I suppose she''s playin''the dooce with yer? 61344 Do about what?" |
61344 | Do n''t you ever go to the movies? |
61344 | Do we go straight across to the Pennsylvania Station, to take the train for Wilmington, or do we have to wait? |
61344 | Do yer suppose I dunno that? 61344 Do yer suppose I''ve come to where I am now without thinkin''them things out, when Gord give me a genius for doin''it? |
61344 | Do you care to go? |
61344 | Do you know what I call you? 61344 Do you know what I''m going to do with you?" |
61344 | Do you like him? |
61344 | Do you mean that you would n''t want to live with us? |
61344 | Do you mean to say that-- having the choice between-- that-- and me-- you choose-- that? |
61344 | Do you remember me? |
61344 | Do you suppose it_ ever_ could come true? |
61344 | Do you think he''ll die? |
61344 | Do you think you''re our son? |
61344 | Do you want to come and be introduced to a lot of people, or would you rather browse about by yourself? 61344 Do you?" |
61344 | Ever dance? |
61344 | Ever see a fellow named Thorne Carstairs? |
61344 | Fight? 61344 For goodness''sake, what''s putting this into your head? |
61344 | Friends? |
61344 | From whom? |
61344 | God''s up in the sky, is n''t He? |
61344 | Guy, for heaven''s sake, what''s that? |
61344 | Had n''t I better go, Mr. Whitelaw? 61344 Have I got to give you an answer, Maisie? |
61344 | Have n''t I said so time and again? 61344 Have one?" |
61344 | Have one? |
61344 | Have you got any tobacco? |
61344 | He has n''t done very well with you, has he? |
61344 | He looks more than that, does n''t he? |
61344 | He might as well stay, might n''t he? |
61344 | He''s a fine kid,the policeman commended, before going away,"and wo n''t give you no trouble, will you, sonny?" |
61344 | Heard the row, have n''t you? |
61344 | Hello? |
61344 | Hildred, do you really feel like that? |
61344 | How can I be yer next o''kin if I do n''t bring ye''up, a young boy like you? 61344 How can I tell how long? |
61344 | How could we? |
61344 | How d''ye do? 61344 How did he get that name?" |
61344 | How did you come to know the Ansleys so well? |
61344 | How do you know I do n''t? |
61344 | How do you know there wo n''t be? |
61344 | How do you know? |
61344 | How do you know? |
61344 | How do you think I live? |
61344 | How far back? |
61344 | How have you been getting along? |
61344 | How have you liked the job? |
61344 | How is he? |
61344 | How long have you been back? |
61344 | How much did you ever care about me? |
61344 | How old are you? |
61344 | How old are you? |
61344 | How old would that make him if he were living now? |
61344 | How would you know when you were sure? |
61344 | How''s ma? |
61344 | How''s ma? |
61344 | How''s ma? |
61344 | How- d''ye- do? 61344 How_ can_ I be convinced? |
61344 | Hurdles? 61344 I did n''t know myself till late last night, did I, Mrs. Whitelaw? |
61344 | I say, mate, what can I do for yer? |
61344 | I suppose he can sleep in the barn, ca n''t he? |
61344 | I think you''re a steady boy, are n''t you? |
61344 | I wonder if you''d mind telling us all about yourself that you know? 61344 If God loves you, and knows what you want, what''s the good of all this Now I lay me? |
61344 | If I wad Gracie I''d be a little girl, would n''t I? |
61344 | If I''ve got to go anywheres I can go without your tearing the clothes off my back, ca n''t I? |
61344 | If Whitelaw''s got to go, dear--"He has n''t got to go, have you, Tom? 61344 If he do n''t come back, why, you''ll come in for a good bit o''proputty, wo n''t yer? |
61344 | If he turned out a rotter would you care more than if it was anybody else? |
61344 | If he''s your second husband''s child why is he called by your first husband''s name? |
61344 | If it do n''t bite me none, why not let it go at that? |
61344 | If you had-- what? |
61344 | If your first stipulation is love...."Would n''t it be yours, Onora? |
61344 | Is Tad to be at home? |
61344 | Is anything the matter? |
61344 | Is he dead? |
61344 | Is it money? |
61344 | Is it, Hildred? 61344 Is n''t all this fuss what I''m tellin''yer? |
61344 | Is she-- dead? |
61344 | Is that because there was so much to be spent on me? |
61344 | Is that final, sir? |
61344 | Is that what a communist is, a fellow who''ll contend with two? |
61344 | Is that what you''re baking? |
61344 | Is there no way by which I can be taken as myself? |
61344 | It''s a kind of religion, is n''t it? |

61344 | Oh, you do, do you? 61344 Oh, you''ve got money in the bank, have you?" |
61344 | On what grounds? |
61344 | Over three years? |
61344 | Pilcher, I wonder if you''d mind helping me? |
61344 | Please, miss, what''s cyanide of potassium? |
61344 | Pretty soft, what? |
61344 | Putting yourself through? |

61344 | Say, are you balmy up here? |
61344 | Say, boy, what you think of a little trip down to Wilmington, Delaware, you and me? 61344 Say, boys, do n''t you think the fun''s gone far enough?" |
61344 | Say, kiddy, yer ai n''t asleep, are yer? 61344 Sent you over to fetch me-- in the machine? |
61344 | She could n''t die, and you have her here, now could she? 61344 She was married to Thomas Coburn before she was married to Theodore Whitelaw, your father?" |
61344 | Sit there, will you? |
61344 | So he''s sent you, has he? 61344 So she said that?" |
61344 | So that you have n''t taken a shine to me-- yet? |
61344 | Something-- like what? |
61344 | State ward, ai n''t he? |
61344 | Stick it out against what? |
61344 | Stop us from--? |
61344 | Suppose we do n''t bring that up just yet? 61344 Suppose we wait till the question arises? |
61344 | That it was you? 61344 That''s the big private school in Marlborough Street, is n''t it?" |
61344 | The name of the gentleman who left this afternoon? |
61344 | Then why do they seem to hate me so? |
61344 | Then why in thunder do you keep butting in--? |
61344 | Then you think the position would be a false one? |
61344 | They think what queer? |
61344 | Think of you-- what about? |
61344 | Till your father and mother die? |
61344 | Tom, are you? 61344 Too late? |
61344 | Wadn''t there never no Gracie, mudda? |
61344 | Wait-- for how long? |
61344 | Was it Hildred Ansley? |
61344 | Was n''t it awful living with that burglar? |
61344 | Well, I can try, ca n''t I? |
61344 | Well, I''ve had it to''and out, ai n''t I? |
61344 | Well, Tom, what''s your answer to my letter? |
61344 | Well, do n''t yer suppose it''s a damn sight''arder for me to be out''n a good thing than it is for you to see me out''n it? 61344 Well, do n''t you?" |
61344 | Well, do you think I would? |
61344 | Well, if you were going to do that-- what of it? |
61344 | Well, it wo n''t be you, will it? |
61344 | Well, then, did n''t anyone ever come to see her? |
61344 | Well, then-- what? |
61344 | Well, unreally then? |
61344 | Well, we''re going to Wilmington to- day, are n''t we? |
61344 | Well, what about it? |
61344 | Well, what about my grounds when I know to the contrary? |
61344 | Well, what can there be? |

61344 | What sort of things were they? |
61344 | What sort of things? |
61344 | What the devil do you want? 61344 What the hell business is it of yours?" |
61344 | What things? |
61344 | What was her name? |

61344 | What''s happened? 61344 What''s it now?" |
61344 | What''s it to you whether I''ve got sense or not? |
61344 | What''s not good enough? |
61344 | What''s that for? |
61344 | What''s the good of it anyhow? |
61344 | What''s the good of that line of talk? 61344 What''s the matter with her?" |
61344 | What''s the matter with them? |
61344 | What''s the matter, mudda? |
61344 | What''s the use of beginning if there''s nothing to go on with? |
61344 | What''s the use of damning college, when I''ve got to go? |
61344 | What''s this? |
61344 | What''s your guardian do? |
61344 | What''s your name? |
61344 | What_ do_ you know about your father? |
61344 | When and how? |
61344 | When did you come? 61344 When does he want me to come?" |
61344 | When you say that you do n''t want to, exactly what do you mean? |
61344 | Where do you live? |
61344 | Where do you live? |
61344 | Where have you been dining, Lord Ronald, my son? 61344 Where in thunder did you get that?" |
61344 | Where is she? |
61344 | Where were she and your father married? |
61344 | Where were you born? |
61344 | Where''d you live before that? |
61344 | Where''s he to sleep? |
61344 | Where? 61344 Who said anything about danger? |
61344 | Who said that? |
61344 | Who was that? |
61344 | Who''s Miss Lily? |
61344 | Who''s a crook? |
61344 | Who''s a cry- baby? |
61344 | Who''s that? |
61344 | Who''s the boy what his mother was put in jaaa- il? |
61344 | Who''s the boy what his mother was put in jail? |
61344 | Who? 61344 Why ca n''t we?" |
61344 | Why ca n''t you say_ Yep_, like anybody else? |
61344 | Why did n''t you do something about it then,Tad put in, peevishly,"if you were going to do anything at all?" |
61344 | Why do n''t we go home, dad? |
61344 | Why do n''t you get money where you got it before? |
61344 | Why do n''t you smoke? |
61344 | Why do they seem to hate me so? |
61344 | Why do you care? |
61344 | Why do you say this to me? |
61344 | Why not? 61344 Why not?" |
61344 | Why queer? |
61344 | Why should n''t he? 61344 Why should she have said that, when, if you were born in the Bronx, she and her baby were miles away?" |
61344 | Why, what have you been doing to yourself? 61344 Will they take her away in a long black box?" |
61344 | Will you come back a minute, please? |
61344 | Will you sit there, Whitelaw? |
61344 | Will you step in here, sir, and I''ll tell the master that you''ve come? |
61344 | Wo n''t you sit down? |
61344 | Wondering what? |
61344 | Would it be of any help if I were to withdraw? |
61344 | Would you go with him? |
61344 | Would you like to look at them? |
61344 | Would you rather that your little boy was found?--or that he was n''t found? |
61344 | Yer''d be arrested if yer did n''t look out; but what''s bein''arrested? 61344 Yes, Miss Ansley?" |
61344 | Yes, but could n''t you do that and be Harry Whitelaw-- if you_ are_ Harry Whitelaw-- at the same time? |
61344 | Yes, but how did you ever...? |
61344 | Yes, but what do you want to be like that for? 61344 Yes, but what''ll he do for money?" |
61344 | Yes, but you do n''t think the bigness ought to stop us, do you? |
61344 | Yes, dad? 61344 You do n''t mean this Tom, do you, old lady?" |
61344 | You do n''t want to do it, hey? |
61344 | You got a job? |
61344 | You have n''t, have you? |
61344 | You like the idea of going with Guy? |
61344 | You mean that Tad''s on probation? |
61344 | You mean that you do think I''m the lost Whitelaw baby? |
61344 | You mean that--? |
61344 | You remember your mother? |
61344 | You see what, Maisie? |
61344 | You''ll come over with me, wo n''t you? |
61344 | You''re brothers? |
61344 | You''re not going to say that it is n''t a real diamond? |
61344 | You''re sure of all that? |
61344 | You''re sure you wo n''t be lonesome, Honey? |
61344 | You''ve been in the army, have n''t you? |
61344 | You''ve been married since I saw you last, have n''t you? |
61344 | You''ve done--_what_? |
61344 | You''ve got a use for me? 61344 You''ve just arrived with Miss Ansley, have n''t you?" |
61344 | Your name is Whitelaw, too, is n''t it? |
61344 | _ What?_ You do n''t mean to say you''ve had another row with him! 61344 After that...."What''s your name? |
61344 | Ai n''t yer a Christian, Goody?" |
61344 | All the same, it''d be up to me, would n''t it, not to leave no razors layin''round the room, where yer could put yer''and on''em?" |
61344 | All the same--""Yes, Tom; all the same-- what?" |
61344 | And do n''t that belong to us? |
61344 | And if nobody else tries to find out, why should I, when he''s been so awful nice to me?" |
61344 | And if you saw it, could you miss it and pass it by? |
61344 | And what did she give you, my handsome young man?" |
61344 | And yer did spend the money a- takin''her about, now did n''t yer?" |
61344 | And you never heard anything more about her?" |
61344 | Are n''t there animals in this Park? |
61344 | Are we never going to be anything but fools?" |
61344 | Are yez puttin''a knife in him? |
61344 | At one o''clock?" |
61344 | Because-- what? |
61344 | But if they''re satisfied that you''re--""And if I''m not satisfied?" |
61344 | But they''re dead wrong, see? |
61344 | But time does avenge one, does n''t it?" |
61344 | But what could he do? |
61344 | But what''s a few months in chokey when you''re doin''it for yer feller creeters, to show''em what their rights is?" |
61344 | But what''s a man to do when he sees a beautiful young lady in danger o''bein''killed?" |
61344 | But what''s that to us? |
61344 | But what''s the use? |
61344 | But when you''ve a trunkful of letters simply burning with passion, simply_ burning_ with it, what good are they to you if you do n''t?... |
61344 | But you''d like first to go to your room, would n''t you? |
61344 | But, Lord, what''s a eye, even to a Socialist, when yer can do somethink for a feller creeter?" |
61344 | But, oh, Tom, what can we do about it that-- that would n''t seem quite mad?" |
61344 | Ca n''t you see it for yourself? |
61344 | Ca n''t you try to give him another of whom he wo n''t have to be ashamed?" |
61344 | Can I get you anything?" |
61344 | Could n''t you keep an eye on him, and tell me what she''s like?" |
61344 | Could she have meant what he thought she must have meant? |
61344 | Crewdson?" |
61344 | Did God have any part in it? |
61344 | Did n''t he own that market- garden place, out there on the edge of Connecticut?" |
61344 | Did nature send him into the world as an inferior, or did the world turn him into an inferior after he had come into it? |
61344 | Did she ever tell you why she selected that date?" |
61344 | Did you get your book? |
61344 | Did you know that?" |
61344 | Do n''t I call you son?" |
61344 | Do n''t I know? |
61344 | Do n''t blame him, do you, when he''s heard everyone gassing about the kid all through his life?" |
61344 | Do n''t you hear people talking? |
61344 | Do n''t you know even how to_ talk_ right?" |
61344 | Do n''t you read the papers? |
61344 | Do n''t you remember? |
61344 | Do you expect us to put up an arch?" |
61344 | Do you hear me?" |
61344 | Do you know that if we lead others astray God will call us to account for it?" |
61344 | Do you remember?" |
61344 | Do you suppose they''ll...?" |
61344 | Do you suppose...?" |
61344 | Do you understand what I mean?" |
61344 | Do you want to know what time it is? |
61344 | Does n''t he, Blanche? |
61344 | Funny it''d be, would n''t it, if you turned out to be the Whitelaw baby? |
61344 | Grover for? |
61344 | Had he any friends? |
61344 | Had he any relatives? |
61344 | Have you had your supper?" |
61344 | He can spare you for a few minutes, ca n''t he? |
61344 | He could barely breathe the words,"Would you care if I were?" |
61344 | He repeated the question he had put to Lily,"Would you care if I were your son?" |
61344 | He would n''t mind the humiliation if he could do any good; but would he? |
61344 | He''s got the same name as yours, has n''t he? |
61344 | Her tantalizing question was ringing in his ears: If he was going to take a shine to any girl-- what of it? |
61344 | Honey turned his head slightly to say:"Have I been asleep, Kid?" |
61344 | Honeybun?" |
61344 | Honeybun?" |
61344 | Honeybun?" |
61344 | How could he afford...? |
61344 | How could he forsake...? |
61344 | How could this injustice be endured? |
61344 | How could you tell it when you saw it? |
61344 | How did he, Tom Whitelaw, know that he was n''t his child? |
61344 | How do you know that you wo n''t damn well have to be?" |
61344 | How do you know you could n''t give him a peg up, and he''d be grateful to you all his life?" |
61344 | How long had they lived in that place? |
61344 | How long had they lived there? |
61344 | How much did you give?" |
61344 | How much of yer own master do yer expect to be, on the ten or twelve per yer''ll git to begin with--_if_ yer gits that?" |
61344 | How old are you?" |
61344 | How old are you?" |
61344 | How_ can_ I? |
61344 | I ca n''t tell yer both sides to onst, now can I?" |
61344 | I do n''t""Why do n''t you?" |
61344 | I saw ma-- just as plain as--"He recovered himself with a light laugh--"Wouldn''t it bust yer braces to''ear me sayin''ma? |
61344 | I sha n''t be hurting you, shall I? |
61344 | I suppose you know all about yourself-- your people-- where you began-- that sort of thing?" |
61344 | I suppose you live somewhere near us?" |
61344 | I swore that I''d give my life to trying to--""But what could you do when even the child''s father, with all his money, couldn''t--?" |
61344 | I think the crook in his face makes him look aristocratic, do n''t you?" |
61344 | I told him you''d punish him, and you will, wo n''t you, ma?" |
61344 | I want to get somewhere-- to a desert island perhaps-- where there wo n''t be any people--""None?" |
61344 | I''ll only say that she likes you, and that--""Was it Hildred Ansley?" |
61344 | I''m his wife, ai n''t I?" |
61344 | I''ve prayed as I do n''t think many people have ever prayed; and now I''ve come to where--""Where what?" |
61344 | I''ve said so to Dadd times without number, have n''t I, Dadd?" |
61344 | I_ am_ a sport; only-- only--"he was almost bursting into tears--"only the damn fat wo n''t let me get it out, see?" |
61344 | If Englishmen has to turn tail before Germans, well, what next?" |
61344 | If anyone tries hard enough to persuade you....""Has anyone tried to persuade you-- about me?" |
61344 | If nothink do n''t belong to nobody, then what about all your dough in the New York savin''s bank, and mine in the one in Brooklyn? |
61344 | If you ca n''t, or if you do n''t mean to, why make the threat? |
61344 | If you want to talk to someone who wishes you well, go and--""Did she put you up to this?" |
61344 | In thought he could hear Hildred singing, as she had sung when he stayed with them at Dublin in the spring,"Is she kind as she is fair? |
61344 | Is he your father?" |
61344 | Is n''t he a tease, Mr. Whitelaw? |
61344 | Is n''t that nice? |
61344 | Is that a bargain?" |
61344 | Is that it?" |
61344 | Just tell me that--""And what would you do?" |
61344 | Know what it is?" |
61344 | May I ask one question?" |
61344 | Me? |
61344 | Me?" |
61344 | Not to be that son made Tom sorry; but without a mother, how could he be? |
61344 | Now then, are you to put a spoke in the country''s wheel? |
61344 | Now, do n''t you want to say your prayers?" |
61344 | Oh, Tom, could n''t we make a little life for ourselves away from everyone, and from all this cheap vindictiveness? |
61344 | Oh, Tom, was there ever anybody else with you?" |
61344 | Oh, Tom, what can we do about it if we ever get home?" |
61344 | Once he heard a lady say, as she passed behind his back,"Well, he does look like the Whitelaws, does n''t he?" |
61344 | Only you''ll remember your promise, wo n''t you? |
61344 | Pity, I call it, after-- how many years is it?" |
61344 | Say, is it worth your while? |
61344 | Say, now, would she tempt you?" |
61344 | See how much he looks like Tad?" |
61344 | See? |
61344 | See?" |
61344 | Seen you before, have n''t I? |
61344 | She''s bottle- fed, ai n''t she? |
61344 | Slipping into the hallway, she said over her shoulder as he followed her:"How old are you?" |
61344 | So you''re here? |
61344 | Still pretty cold for April, is n''t it?" |
61344 | Suppose we just-- go on? |
61344 | Taking no notice of this, the man began to question him,"Where were you born?" |
61344 | That right, Pappa, ai n''t it?" |
61344 | That''d be so, kiddy, would n''t it?" |
61344 | That''s a good thought to go to sleep on, is n''t it? |
61344 | That''s what you were going to say, is n''t it? |
61344 | The crook?" |
61344 | The man''s only comment was to say,"And you never heard the name of Whitelaw in connection with yourself till you heard it on that evening?" |
61344 | The nearest he could get to it in language was to say:"I''m a little boy, ai n''t I?" |
61344 | The policeman answered, regretfully:"Do you think you must?" |
61344 | The same idea might have come to the older man, for looking up out of his reverie, he said, with no context:"What do you mean to be?" |
61344 | Then you''ll feel more like eating, wo n''t you?" |
61344 | They all hushed these things up, and he did as the rest; but what was the basic reason? |
61344 | They were more expressive than her tone when they tossed themselves wildly apart, as she cried:"What else could it be for me-- but compulsion?" |
61344 | This is the very bench on which Miss Nash and the other nurse were sitting--""When you were stolen?" |
61344 | V"Mudda, can I have a book and learn to read?" |
61344 | VI"It''s all right, mudda, is n''t it?" |
61344 | Want to come?" |
61344 | Was it God''s will that there should be a class system among mankind, with class animosities, class warfares? |
61344 | Was it possible that she did n''t like to see him in a situation something like a servant''s? |
61344 | Was n''t it everybody''s duty to try to right such a wrong? |
61344 | Was n''t it lucky that you came along? |
61344 | Was n''t that what He was doing now, and was n''t the angel taking Pilcher''s guise? |
61344 | Watches me like a cat, do n''t you see she does? |
61344 | We get away with it, do n''t we? |
61344 | We''re keepin''it agin yer goin''to college, ai n''t we? |
61344 | Well, it shows we were made for each other, does n''t it, because I never thought that anyone felt like that but me?" |
61344 | Well, that''s what we went for, is n''t it?" |
61344 | What about making the world safe for democracy?" |
61344 | What are you going to be yourself?" |
61344 | What are you standing on? |
61344 | What are_ you_ doing up here in New Hampshire?" |
61344 | What brought these differences about? |
61344 | What class do you expect to be in?" |
61344 | What did it matter if Hildred Ansley_ was_ opening the door out of pity? |
61344 | What did they portend? |
61344 | What did you come home for?" |
61344 | What did you think?" |
61344 | What did you-- what did you-- do with that powder?" |
61344 | What did your father do?" |
61344 | What difference does that make, when you''re a sport all right? |
61344 | What do you gain by being the rotten spot in the beam that may bring the whole shack about our ears? |
61344 | What do you remember about her?" |
61344 | What do you say?" |
61344 | What do you take me for?" |
61344 | What do you want me to do?" |
61344 | What does your father do?" |
61344 | What is there to convince me? |
61344 | What kind of hurdles?" |
61344 | What kind of job?" |
61344 | What made him so? |
61344 | What made you go to Boston before coming here?" |
61344 | What makes you so tall?" |
61344 | What school do you go to?" |
61344 | What then?" |
61344 | What was Tad Whitelaw to him? |
61344 | What was he to do? |
61344 | What was it in him that cried out, and pleaded not to be forsaken? |
61344 | What was it your name was?" |
61344 | What was it? |
61344 | What was it? |
61344 | What was to be done about it? |
61344 | What were the newspapers and the governments and the churches doing that they were n''t ringing with protests against this fundamental evil? |
61344 | What would you think?" |
61344 | What you thinking of? |
61344 | What''ll they say next? |
61344 | What''ll you will to your brither, my handsome young man?" |
61344 | What''ll you will to your mither, my handsome young man?" |
61344 | What''ll you will to your truelove, my handsome young man?" |
61344 | What''s the matter with him? |
61344 | What''s the weather like outside? |
61344 | What''s there to find? |
61344 | What''s up?" |
61344 | What''s your address in New York?" |
61344 | What''s your father do?" |
61344 | What''s your name?" |
61344 | What''s yours?" |
61344 | When she turned round in the dark part of the shop, and called out,"Are you all right, darling?" |
61344 | Where did they live? |
61344 | Where do you think I keep my eyes? |
61344 | Where do you think you''re going?" |
61344 | Where had they lived before that? |
61344 | Where have you been dining, my handsome young man?" |
61344 | Where is he?" |
61344 | Where was it? |
61344 | Where we going?" |
61344 | Where you been this ever so long?" |
61344 | While the night matron sat with him and helped him to porridge he asked, suddenly:"Will they let me go to jail and stay with my mudda to- morrow?" |
61344 | Whitelaw?" |
61344 | Whitelaw?" |
61344 | Who can prove a case of this kind-- after nearly twenty- three years?" |
61344 | Who do you think you are? |
61344 | Who sh''d buy yer a lunch if it was n''t me?" |
61344 | Who''s the boy what his mother was put in ja- aa- ail?" |
61344 | Who_ is_ that woman that he meets?" |
61344 | Why did n''t you let me know?" |
61344 | Why do n''t you call me that? |
61344 | Why do you ask?" |
61344 | Why do you pick on me?" |
61344 | Why do you say that?" |
61344 | Why go to all that trouble about opening your mind when here''s the job handed out to you? |
61344 | Why not let him believe it? |
61344 | Why not? |
61344 | Why not?" |
61344 | Why should a woman have uttered such a warning if she had not been afraid of a suspicion? |
61344 | Why should n''t you?" |
61344 | Why then did he hate the idea? |
61344 | Why there?" |
61344 | Why this specification? |
61344 | Why was he frightened in the one case, and in the other comforted? |
61344 | Why was one man inferior to another? |
61344 | Why, where''s the picture? |
61344 | Why?" |
61344 | Why_ ca n''t_ boys treat each other like gentlemen?" |
61344 | Without a turning of the head or a change in her languid intonation, she said, casually:"You''re our lost brother, are n''t you?" |
61344 | Would Tom be in Louisburg Square for reasons of importance at four that afternoon? |
61344 | Would that suit you?" |
61344 | Would there be anyone to do that now? |
61344 | Would they keep the peace? |
61344 | Would you do that-- to your own mother-- after she was dead?" |
61344 | Yale chap, is n''t he?" |
61344 | Ye''ll have heard tell o''that?" |
61344 | Yer ch''ice is between me and the State, and I''d be a lot better nor that, would n''t I? |
61344 | Yer''ve heard that there''s always two sides to a story, have n''t yer? |
61344 | You do n''t suppose I stole you, do you?" |
61344 | You do n''t suppose my mother stole me, do you? |
61344 | You know that, do n''t you?" |
61344 | You know what a orthodock is, do n''t yer?" |
61344 | You know what a socialist is, do n''t yer?" |
61344 | You know what telling the truth is, do n''t you?" |
61344 | You made a search?" |
61344 | You see that apple?" |
61344 | You see that, do n''t you?" |
61344 | You understand, do n''t you?" |
61344 | You wo n''t be late, will you?" |
61344 | You wo n''t teach him anything harmful?" |
61344 | You''ll be careful with them, wo n''t you? |
61344 | You''re not asleep, Kiddy, are you?" |
61344 | You''re the Whitelaw boy, are n''t you?" |
61344 | and me tellin''yer about the Whitelaw baby?" |
61344 | he whispered,"would n''t you like me to take the young gent for a bit of a walk like? |
61344 | how do we know he has n''t a wife somewheres else, when he goes off a year and more at a time, on his long business trips? |
12958 | ''And art thou not a married wretch? 12958 ''But what can I do with the little baggage?'' |
12958 | ''Is there no reason, think you,''said I,''to imagine that your acquaintance with me gives her uneasiness? 12958 ''Well, but after all, Sir Simon,''would I say, if I had been in presence at his peevish hour,''you are a fine gentleman, are you not? |
12958 | All in good time, Pamela!--But is this the best appearance you choose to make, to receive such guests? |
12958 | And are you in earnest, Pamela? |
12958 | And do you think, Sir, whether it be so or not, that it is equitable it should be so? |
12958 | And is her ladyship there, or in town? |
12958 | And must I, Sir, speak my mind on such a point, before so many better judges? |
12958 | And what is the result? |
12958 | And who can better instruct us to guard_ our hearts_, than a lady who has so well defended_ her own_? |
12958 | And will you, dearest lady, take under your own immediate protection, the poor unguilty infant? 12958 Are you angry, Widow?" |
12958 | As how, Sir? |
12958 | As how, my dear? |
12958 | Ay, Pamela,said Mr. B.,"what can you say to this? |
12958 | But do you yield it up cheerfully, my dear? |
12958 | But how came Mr. Adams, Polly, to know of this letter? |
12958 | But how can I help it?--Must I not connive at your proceedings, if I do not? 12958 But how does my Pamela? |
12958 | But how, brother baronet,said Sir Charles to Sir Jacob,"came_ you_ to be reconciled to her? |
12958 | But pray, dear Sir, what had you in view in all this? 12958 But then, Madam,"said Miss,"would Profusiana venture to play at public places? |
12958 | But what became of the naughty boys, and the naughty girl, mamma? |
12958 | But what can I do? |
12958 | But why ca n''t you bear with it a little longer, sister? 12958 But will not that be presumptuous, Sir?" |
12958 | But, after all, does happiness to a gentleman, a scholar, a philosopher, rest in a greater or lesser income? 12958 But, say, my Pamela, can you forgive my harshness?" |
12958 | But,said Lady Towers, very satirically,"whither, ladies, are we got? |
12958 | Butt cann you forgive me? 12958 Dear Sir, if I should tell you it is_ not_ Mr. Turner, you''ll guess at somebody else: and what avails all this to the matter in hand? |
12958 | Dear Sir,said I, almost as quick as he was,"why should I be moved? |
12958 | Do I want you, Confidence? 12958 Do n''t the Misses love you now, Miss Goodwin?" |
12958 | Does what I said concern Mr. Martin more than any other gentleman,returned Lady Towers,"that he is disposed to take offence at it?" |
12958 | For myself, what can I say? 12958 Has he given you money?" |
12958 | How came Mr. B.,thought I,"to tell_ you_ that, Madam? |
12958 | How can I enough,returned I, and kissed her hand,"acknowledge your ladyship''s polite goodness in this compliment? |
12958 | How do you do, niece? |
12958 | How dost thou know what wits_ should_ or should_ not_ do? 12958 How often must I chide you for calling me any thing but your Pamela, when we are alone together?" |
12958 | I asked if it were not owing to some alteration in his own temper? 12958 I hope, friend, thou art prepared with a father for the light within thee?" |
12958 | I know it, Polly; and are you not of opinion he loves you a little? |
12958 | I need not dress otherwise than I am? |
12958 | I see( might he not have said? |
12958 | I''ll tell you, truly, Pamela: I said to her,''Well, now your ladyship has seen my Pamela-- Is she not the charmingest girl in the world?'' 12958 I_ am_, and what then?--Must the consequence be crime enough to warrant your jealousy?" |
12958 | Is it not descending too much, my ladies, as to the company? |
12958 | Is that it? 12958 Is this wit?" |
12958 | It is so then? |
12958 | Madam,said he to the countess,"Lord Davers, Lady Davers, do we want any titles, think you, to make us happy but what we can confer upon ourselves?" |
12958 | Mr. Williams, how do you do? |
12958 | Nay, now you talk of treating,said Sir Charles,"when, ladies, will you treat our sex with the politeness which you shew to one another?" |
12958 | O my good lady,said he,"who can forbear following such an example as you set? |
12958 | O, Madam, what can you mean? 12958 Right or wrong, Sir Jacob?" |
12958 | She has; and what then? |
12958 | Sir-- Sir,hesitated I,"as you please-- I can''t-- I ca n''t be displeased--""_ Displeased?_"interrupted he:"why that word? |
12958 | Sir-- Sir,hesitated I,"as you please-- I can''t-- I ca n''t be displeased--""_ Displeased?_"interrupted he:"why that word? |
12958 | So, Pamela!--How do you do now? |
12958 | So, my dear love,says he,"how do you?" |
12958 | That''s very true,replied he:"But would you expect I should give you a_ reason_ for an attempt that appears to you so very shocking?" |
12958 | The very mention of the word, dear Sir, is a security to me; I want no other; I can not doubt: but if you speak short to me, how shall I bear that? |
12958 | Then what occasion have I for it, if that be the case, Madam? |
12958 | Then you do n''t approve of them, Pamela? |
12958 | Then, dear Sir,said I,"must I not be a strange creature? |
12958 | They are certainly in the right-- But were you not a dear perverse creature, to give me all this trouble about your saucy scruples? |
12958 | Upon this, my mother said,''Do n''t you think Pamela writes a pretty hand, son?'' 12958 Was not my girl a little inquisitive upon me just now?" |
12958 | Was the gentleman a man of wit, Madam? 12958 Well, Pamela,"said he, a little seriously,"what say the worthy pair?" |
12958 | Well, but then, Sir, as to the expression to her uncle, that she had rather have been a certain gentleman''s second wife? |
12958 | Well, but then, dear Sir, there is nothing at all amiss, at this rate, in the correspondence between my lady and you? |
12958 | Well, but, mamma, we will all be good:-Won''t we, Master Davers? |
12958 | Well, for my part,said Lady Davers,"thou art a strange girl: where, as my brother once said, gottest thou all this?" |
12958 | Well, my dear,said Mr. B.,"but what would you advise in this case? |
12958 | Well, my strange dear!--But sure your head is a little turned!--What is your question? |
12958 | Well, so, this is your bar, is it? 12958 Well, then, my dearest,"said he,"we will forgive one another? |
12958 | Well; but may I not ask, whether, if the mountain can not come to Mahomet, Mahomet will not come to the mountain? 12958 What a happy thing is it,"thought I,"that good nature generally accompanies this character; else, how would some people be supportable?" |
12958 | What ails the little fool? |
12958 | What answer did my Lord S. make to it? |
12958 | What foolishness is this on both sides!--But are you willing to be released from this bargain? |
12958 | What have I done? 12958 What is your boast, dearest Sir? |
12958 | What is your proposal, my dear? 12958 What mean you, Sir?--Who are you, Sir?--What mean you?" |
12958 | What means all this parade, my dear? 12958 What means my dearest?" |
12958 | What now,with some little impatience,"would the pretty fool be at?" |
12958 | What say_ you_, Sir? |
12958 | What should you be vexed at, my dear? |
12958 | What then, does he pass his time_ with you_, Polly? |
12958 | What''s the matter, my love? |
12958 | What, all this while, is poor Profusiana doing? 12958 What, dost think I shall look through_ his_ foolish eyes? |
12958 | What_ means_ the dear creature? 12958 When, Sir, am I to come upon my trial? |
12958 | Whence this insolence? 12958 Where''s Pamela?" |
12958 | Whether, Sir, the Nun-- I speak boldly; the cause requires it-- who followed you at the Masquerade every where, is not the Countess of--? |
12958 | Who is to be judge of that? |
12958 | Who would not be good? |
12958 | Who''s that? |
12958 | Why have I wept the distresses of the injured Hermione? |
12958 | Why so? |
12958 | Why this,continued the countess,"must be_ born_ dignity--_born_ discretion-- Education can not give it:--if it could, why should not_ we_ have it?" |
12958 | Will not a penitent Nun make a good third with a mournful Widow, and a prim Quaker? |
12958 | Will not my friends be welcome, Pamela? |
12958 | Will you be pleased, Madam, to have a chair? 12958 Will you favour us with your company home, my old acquaintance?" |
12958 | Will you give Master to my arms, one moment, Madam? |
12958 | Will you give me leave, my dear,said he,"to break the seal?" |
12958 | Will you suffer me, Sir, to attend you? 12958 Will your ladyship see him now?" |
12958 | Would you have me dress better? |
12958 | Yet I fancy, Madam, the wind is a little too high for you.--Won''t you catch cold? |
12958 | You answer me not,continued I;"and may I not fairly presume you can not as I wish to be answered? |
12958 | You are ruined if you do!--And I wish-- But tell me, Polly, are you not ruined as it is? |
12958 | You talk to me, my dearest life, as if all you had heard against me was true; and you would have me answer you,( would you?) 12958 You talked, Madam,"said she,"when I saw you before, that I should come and live with you-- Will you let me, Madam? |
12958 | _ There_--and what then? |
12958 | ''And will you,''said I,''ingenuously acquaint me with the issue of your inquiries? |
12958 | ''This is her writing, is it?'' |
12958 | ''Tis not unusual with our vain sex,"observed he,"to construe even reproaches to our advantage,")''is the lady here, whose shackles thou wearest?'' |
12958 | ''s hands, since you have such testimonies,_ both_ of you, of the rectitude of her thinking and acting?" |
12958 | ''s in this particular? |
12958 | ''s place in her absence?" |
12958 | ( for I honour the slut with too much of my notice),"Where''s Polly?" |
12958 | ( who is since dead), I could not but notice her fondness for her, and said,''What do you design, Madam, to do_ with_ or_ for_, this Pamela of yours? |
12958 | ( who knows?) |
12958 | ),"let me offer but one thing: do n''t you think Sir Simon himself would be loth to be thought a reformed gentleman? |
12958 | --"And what could he say?" |
12958 | --"Are they so?" |
12958 | --"As how?--As what?--In what way?--How faulty?" |
12958 | --"But where,"said Lady Davers,"collectedst thou all this good sense, and fine spirit in thy devotion?" |
12958 | --"Do I, Sir?" |
12958 | --"Dost thou,"said she,"hate shackles? |
12958 | --"For what, Lady Davers?" |
12958 | --"For what, Madam? |
12958 | --"I had consented--"--"To what?" |
12958 | --"I hope not too, Polly!--But you know he was free enough with you, to make you say''_ Fie!_''And what might have been the case, who knows? |
12958 | --"No, Madam, but--"--"But what?--Say, but what?" |
12958 | --"Or in me?" |
12958 | --"Rather,"whispered she,"what is become of the Spaniard?" |
12958 | --"Well pray, Sir, go on.--What was next?" |
12958 | --"Well then, shall I go up, and oblige Pamela to sup by herself, and persuade Lady Jenny to come down to us?" |
12958 | --"What is it I hear? |
12958 | --"What proposals?" |
12958 | --"Why, dost believe, Goodman Andrews,"said he,"that I would do such a thing? |
12958 | --"With all my heart, Madam,"replied Mr. Williams;"and I shall be proud of such a direction,"--"What say_ you_, brother? |
12958 | --"With all my heart,"replied he.--"But, uncle,"said Mr. B.,"have you really no desire, no curiosity to see the girl I have married?" |
12958 | --"With me, Sir Jacob?" |
12958 | --"Yet, what is that virtue,"said the dean,"which can not stand the test?" |
12958 | --"You speak to your knowledge, I doubt not, Sir Jacob?" |
12958 | --''Is it not?'' |
12958 | --(Did she say?) |
12958 | --For just then, the chariot brought me into the court- yard--"Who''s this? |
12958 | --Lady Davers then turning herself to Mrs. Jervis--"How do you, good woman?" |
12958 | --She was silent.--"Tell me, Polly( for I am really greatly concerned for you), what you think_ yourself_; do you_ hope_ he will marry you?" |
12958 | --She was silent.--"Tell me, Polly, if he does?" |
12958 | --Was not this, my ladies, a triumph of triumphs to the late miserable, now exalted, Pamela!--could I do less than pardon her? |
12958 | --could resolve as she resolved, and act as she acted? |
12958 | Again and again, I say( for what can I say else or more-- since I ca n''t find words to speak all I think? |
12958 | All her courtship was sometimes a hasty snatch of the hand, a black and blue gripe of the arm, and--"Whither now?" |
12958 | All my resolution fails me; what shall I do? |
12958 | And I rung and rung, and"Where''s Polly?" |
12958 | And I was getting away as fast as I could: but he arose and took my hand,"Why is my charmer so soon frightened?" |
12958 | And being told, came up to me:--"What ails the good woman below, my dear?" |
12958 | And can we propose ourselves, for the government of our children, a better example than that of the Creator? |
12958 | And did her ladyship so answer?" |
12958 | And do n''t you remember, when we were at Bath, in what a hurry I once passed by some knots of genteel people, and you asked what those were doing? |
12958 | And having declared that I did so, was I not to shew the sincerity of my declaration? |
12958 | And how could I forbear repeating these kind things to you, that you may see how well every thing is taken that you do? |
12958 | And how did she bring it about?" |
12958 | And if the dear gentleman had two or three thousand less, might he be less happy on that account? |
12958 | And if you had intended to have gone without taking leave of me?" |
12958 | And is it so great a praise, that you think fit to own for a sister so deserving a girl as this, whom I take pride in calling my wife?" |
12958 | And let us know your opinion, whether my brother himself does right, to comply with such an unreasonable distaste?" |
12958 | And now, my dear parents, do you not rejoice with me in this charming, charming appearance? |
12958 | And rising up--"Will you excuse me, Sir, that I can not attend at all to such a subject as this? |
12958 | And should you care to try? |
12958 | And so we shew how little we deserve what we have been so long coveting; and yet covet on: for what? |
12958 | And then looking up at his face, and down at his feet, three or four times successively,"Are you my brother''s son? |
12958 | And what did you design should come of it?" |
12958 | And what do you think the free gentleman said upon it? |
12958 | And what have_ you_ to do but to rejoice? |
12958 | And what is the instruction that can be gathered from such pieces, for the conduct of common life? |
12958 | And what is the_ honour_ you swear by? |
12958 | And what punishment does not such a seducer deserve?" |
12958 | And what was the consequence? |
12958 | And when once I asked myself, to what this conversation might tend at last? |
12958 | And where''s your lord? |
12958 | And who can then be so blest as your Pamela? |
12958 | And why should it not be so? |
12958 | And why this wry face? |
12958 | And will it be right then to say, you are uneasy under such( at least as to your wills) returned and discharged obligations? |
12958 | And will ladies so disgrace their characters, and their sex, as to pursue this pernicious diversion in public?" |
12958 | And will not the man of_ mind_ bestow his principal care in improving that mind? |
12958 | And wo n''t that be an ugly foible overcome? |
12958 | Are you not?" |
12958 | At last, up he got, and swore a sad oath:"And am I thus tricked and bamboozled,"that was his word;"am I? |
12958 | B. come up again? |
12958 | B. said,"Why are you not full- dressed, my dear?" |
12958 | B.--"O why,"as Deborah makes the mother of Sisera say,"is his chariot so long in coming? |
12958 | B.?" |
12958 | B.?" |
12958 | B.?" |
12958 | B.?" |
12958 | B.?" |
12958 | B.?" |
12958 | B.?" |
12958 | Believing the Countess was desirous of being alone with me, I said,"My dear Miss Goodwin, wo n''t you go to your little nursery, my love?" |
12958 | But Achilles could be touched only in his heel; and if he was to die by an enemy''s hands, must not the arrow find out that only vulnerable place? |
12958 | But I have no notion of_ mere_ formalities of this kind"--(How unpolite this, my dear, in your friend?) |
12958 | But after a pause, she said,"Well, then, brother, will you let Pamela decide upon this point?" |
12958 | But are we not all apt to argue for a practice we make our own, because we_ do_ make it our own, rather than from the reason of the thing?" |
12958 | But ca n''t we talk of any other subject? |
12958 | But did she not ask you who you were?" |
12958 | But do n''t you observe what a dear good lady I had? |
12958 | But do you think I will call all these things my own?--Do you think I would live rent- free? |
12958 | But does Mr. B. think it must be so in_ every_ matrimony? |
12958 | But hark- ye- me, my sweet girl, what have I done, that you wo n''t write yourself_ sister_ to me? |
12958 | But have you no other objection, if one could find a genteely- descended young Master? |
12958 | But if she has been accustomed to grant him little favours, can she easily recal them? |
12958 | But is such a Narcissus!--But this between ourselves, for his uncle is wrapt up in the fellow-- And why? |
12958 | But pray, Sir, may I ask, what have you determined to do?" |
12958 | But pray, Sir, what is the earl''s living valued at?" |
12958 | But tell me what you would say? |
12958 | But tell me, truly, Pamela, are you not a little sullen? |
12958 | But tell me, what you think of''em?" |
12958 | But this I see plainly, that he will have his own way; and if I can not get over my scruples, what shall I do? |
12958 | But what a preamble is here? |
12958 | But what are the princes of the earth, look at them in every nation, and what they have been for ages past, compared to this lady? |
12958 | But what can I do? |
12958 | But what foolishness is this!--What consideration has he made you?" |
12958 | But what shall we say? |
12958 | But what will become of the naughty boys? |
12958 | But what, pray, Mr. Williams, do you propose to allow to your curate? |
12958 | But where is such a gentleman as Mr. B. to be met with? |
12958 | But who knows, when the time comes, whether it may not be proper to dispense with this duty, as you deem it, on other accounts? |
12958 | But who was your_ first_ informant?--Was that by letter or personally? |
12958 | But will you pardon me, if I ask, whither you go so soon? |
12958 | But wo n''t you oblige me with the sequel of your letter to your father? |
12958 | But you next require of me an instance, where, in complaisance to_ my_ will, he has receded from_ his own?_ I do n''t know what to say to this. |
12958 | But, dear Sir, will you be pleased, to satisfy me about that affecting information, of your intention and my lady''s to live at Tunbridge together?" |
12958 | But, indeed, how should she? |
12958 | But, my dear friend, are you not in danger of falling into a too thoughtful and gloomy way? |
12958 | But, would you believe it, Sir Simon? |
12958 | But-- but--"staring at me,"Are you married, Madam?" |
12958 | Can I have a will that is not his? |
12958 | Can not you defend me from this charge? |
12958 | Can people merit by doing their duty? |
12958 | Can the affections be so highly raised as mine are on these occasions, and the thoughts creep grovelling like one''s ordinary self? |
12958 | Can the gluttonous father expect a self- denying son? |
12958 | Can the profuse father, who is squandering away the fortunes of his children, expect to be regarded in a lesson of frugality? |
12958 | Colbrand?" |
12958 | Could you ever have thought, my dear, that husbands have a dispensing power over their wives, which kings are not allowed over the laws? |
12958 | Did he not look displeased? |
12958 | Did she go my way? |
12958 | Did you intend to carry this matter, at first, as far as ever you could?" |
12958 | Did you not disdain me at that moment?" |
12958 | Did you think that could be? |
12958 | Do n''t you know how much I interest myself in every thing that makes for my brother''s happiness and your''s? |
12958 | Do n''t you remember it, dear Sir? |
12958 | Do n''t you see his delight, when speaking of his former pranks, as if sorry he could not play them over again? |
12958 | Do n''t you think me, my dear, insufferably vain? |
12958 | Do these instances come up to your questions, my dear? |
12958 | Do they come up to your first question? |
12958 | Do you ever hear Miss Goodwin say a naughty word? |
12958 | Do you think I can bear to hear my friend so freely treated?" |
12958 | Do you think I did not look very silly? |
12958 | Do you think they do?--And if you hope to emulate my good fortune, do you think_ this_ is the way?" |
12958 | Do, dear Miss, be so free as to forbid me to send you any more long journals, but common letters only, of how you do? |
12958 | Does any thing provoke you_ now_"( with a sly leer and affected drawl)"that did not_ formerly?_""Provoke me!--What should provoke me? |
12958 | Does any thing provoke you_ now_"( with a sly leer and affected drawl)"that did not_ formerly?_""Provoke me!--What should provoke me? |
12958 | Does he pretend that he will marry you?" |
12958 | Does not God himself, by rewards and punishments, make it our interest, as well as our duty, to obey him? |
12958 | Does not this shew, that her virtue has made her more conspicuous than my fortune has made me? |
12958 | Else how would it have been forgiveness? |
12958 | For he will have me then reveal my intelligencer: and what may be the case between them? |
12958 | For how, when you, and my good ladies, are continually giving me such charming examples, can I do a wrong thing?" |
12958 | For is it not a sad thing, that the church should be profaned by such actions, and such thoughts, as ought not to be brought into it? |
12958 | For must they not have implements to work with? |
12958 | For since such is your will, and seem to be your engagements, what avails it to me to oppose them? |
12958 | For what may not be feared from so early inculcating the use of dice and gaming, upon the minds of children? |
12958 | For when the mind is elevated, ought not the sense we have of our happiness to make our expressions soar equally? |
12958 | For, dear Sir, is there no doubt, that the tutor should lay himself open to the aversion of the child, whose manners he is to form? |
12958 | From two such extremes, how was it possible I could presently hit the medium? |
12958 | Go to, honest heart, I love thee dearly; but can Mr. B. do too much for his lady, think''st thou? |
12958 | H.?" |
12958 | Has not the Countess taken a house or lodgings at Tunbridge?" |
12958 | Hast thou nothing at all to say for thyself?" |
12958 | Have you any notion, that your lady will have so much power over us?" |
12958 | Have you forgot that?" |
12958 | Have you got her mother with you? |
12958 | He gave me a gentle tap on the neck:"Let me beat my beloved sauce- box,"said he:"is it thus you rally my watchful care over you for your own good? |
12958 | He looked at me with sternness,"Do you doubt my honour, Madam?" |
12958 | He says, that he_ must_, and therefore he_ will_ be virtuous: and is a man for ever to hear the faults of his youth, when so willing to forget them?" |
12958 | He smiled, and said,"Would you, my good Miss Darnford, look so silly, after such a length of time, with a husband you need not be ashamed of?" |
12958 | He was pleased to ask me, when they were gone, how I liked his two lawyers? |
12958 | Hold him fast, and play over all thy monkey tricks with him, with all my heart; who knows but it may engage him more? |
12958 | How happy shall we be!--But how long will you be permitted to stay, though? |
12958 | How know you, but he has found a way to your wife''s ear, as he has done to my uncle''s, and to all my friends''? |
12958 | How shall I acknowledge your inexpressible goodness to me? |
12958 | How should_ she_ be able to reflect, who knows not what reflection is, except of the spiteful sort? |
12958 | How will a parent, whose hands are seldom without cards, or dice in them, be observed in lessons against the pernicious vice of gaming? |
12958 | How, in a word, shall_ they_ come by their knowledge? |
12958 | I asked, if I might not be excused writing, only making my observations, here and there, to himself, as I found occasion? |
12958 | I began as follows:"Will you be pleased, Sir, to favour me with the continuation of our last subject?" |
12958 | I believe you did feel the weight of my hand: but what was that? |
12958 | I bowed my head to the Countess; but my tears being ready to start, I kissed my Billy:"Dearest baby,"said I,"you are not going to cry, are you?" |
12958 | I doubt not, you are soon to return to Tunbridge?" |
12958 | I fear you have sprained your foot.--Shall I help you to a chair?" |
12958 | I had them in my pocket, and read them to my lady; who asked me, if her brother had seen them? |
12958 | I hope you have a better opinion of me than--""Than what, Pamela?--What would you say? |
12958 | I hope, niece, he locks up his baby, while you''re here? |
12958 | I looked, it seems, a little grave; and Mr. B. said,"What have you to offer, Pamela?--What have I said amiss?" |
12958 | I might have been_ drawne__ in_ to do strange foolish things, and been ruin''d at the long run; for who knows where this thing mought have ended? |
12958 | I never saw one before though, in Mr. H.--What''s the matter, Sir?" |
12958 | I repeat my demand: shall it be as Mrs. B. lays it out, or not?" |
12958 | I said softly,"Dear Miss Darnford"( for Mr. B. and the Nun were out of sight in a moment),"what is become of that Nun?" |
12958 | I shall never forget your looks, nor your words neither!--they were severe speeches, were they not, Sir?" |
12958 | I took the charmer in my arms, and kissed her three or four times, as she deserved; for was not this very pretty in the child? |
12958 | I''ll-- But who comes here?" |
12958 | If I were as good as I_ ought_ to be, and as some_ think_ me, must they wish to make me bad for that reason?" |
12958 | If my Pamela is safe, the boy is welcome, welcome, indeed!--But when may I go up to thank my jewel?" |
12958 | If the fountain- head be polluted, how shall the under- currents run clear? |
12958 | If this goodness makes him know no mean in giving, shall I be so greedy as to know none in receiving? |
12958 | If this, Sir, be the case, does not this excellent author recommend a scheme that is rendered in a manner impracticable from this difficulty? |
12958 | If you might not be uneasy at our acquaintance, and at his frequent absence from you, and the like? |
12958 | Is it for this? |
12958 | Is it not a proof of weakness? |
12958 | Is it not a random shot? |
12958 | Is it''cause thou''rt affected_ most_ with thy own case? |
12958 | Is it?" |
12958 | Is not such a poor creature to be pitied? |
12958 | Is_ she_ like to do well?" |
12958 | Is_ she_ safe? |
12958 | It has been an expence to you rather, which you will not presently get up: do you propose an early marriage, Sir? |
12958 | Jervis asked me on Saturday evening, if I would be concerned to see a larger congregation in the lesser hall next morning than usual? |
12958 | Jervis?" |
12958 | Jervis?" |
12958 | Jervis?'' |
12958 | LETTER LXIX Why do n''t I subscribe Sister? |
12958 | LETTER LXVIII Why does not my sweet girl subscribe_ Sister_, as usual? |
12958 | LETTER V MY DEAREST DAUGHTER, How shall I do to answer, as they deserve, your two last letters? |
12958 | LETTER X_ From the same._ And so, Pamela, you are solicitous to know, if the gentlemen have seen every part of your papers? |
12958 | Lady Davers keeps me in countenance in this my notion; and who doubts her politeness? |
12958 | Longman?" |
12958 | Lord Davers-- what merit_ would_ you assume? |
12958 | Madam, I could speak any one distinct sentence? |
12958 | Madam--_ought_ I-- if this be the case? |
12958 | Madam.--But where''s my nephew, Lady Davers? |
12958 | May I not know your subject?" |
12958 | May we hope to be favoured now and then with a letter from you, my dear child, like some of your former, to let us know how you go on? |
12958 | Miss Darnford was addressed by the name of the Sprightly Widow: another asked, how long she intended to wear those weeds? |
12958 | Mr. B. asks me how I relish Mr. Locke''s_ Treatise on Education_? |
12958 | Mr. B. coming up just as I had concluded my letter, asked me what was my subject? |
12958 | Mr. B. looked as if he still expected I should say something.--"Won''t you, Sir, dispense with me?" |
12958 | Mr. B. said,"Observe you not, Lady Davers, that you used a word( to avoid that) which had twice the hissing in it that_ sister_ has? |
12958 | Mr. B. said,"Wo n''t it be better to sit over- against her, uncle?" |
12958 | Mr. H. putting his handkerchief to his eyes, his aunt said,"What''s the matter, Jackey?" |
12958 | Mrs. B. reflects upon me for making her blush formerly, and saying things before my daughters, that, truly, I ought to be ashamed of? |
12958 | Must not such a lady as this, dear Madam, have as much merit as many even of those, who, having not had her temptations, have not fallen? |
12958 | My Lady Davers followed us:"Where is my angelic sister?" |
12958 | My Lord Davers sat next me, and Sir Jacob said,"Shall I beg a favour of you, my lord, to let me sit next to Lady Jenny?" |
12958 | My brother was not disturbed at them, was he?" |
12958 | No, to what purpose should I speak? |
12958 | O Mores!_ What will this world come to?" |
12958 | O my dear parents, how can you, as in your_ postscript_, say,"May we not be_ favoured_ now- and- then with a letter?" |
12958 | O when shall I see you? |
12958 | O, my dear, these gentlemen are strange creatures!--What can they think of themselves? |
12958 | Of such a prerogative in a husband? |
12958 | On the contrary, is it not oftener to be found in a happy competency or mediocrity? |
12958 | Or did you intend to induce him to go to town with us?" |
12958 | Or is it, that thy hour is not yet come?" |
12958 | Or is not what I have said, a full answer, were I to say no more, to_ all_ your enquiries? |
12958 | Or were it not better to suspend your intentions of that sort for a year or two more?" |
12958 | Or what words shall be found to embody air? |
12958 | Or would it be excusable if I_ had?_ All little matters I cheerfully give up: great ones have not yet occurred between us, and I hope never will. |
12958 | Or,''Why should Sally have this or that, any more than I?'' |
12958 | Pray, Madam"( to me),"have you ever been at all conversant in such writers?" |
12958 | Pray-- have you shewn Jewkes''s letter to your good friend?--Lady Betty wants to know( if you_ have_) what he could say to it? |
12958 | Put on an angrier brow, or how shall I retain my purpose? |
12958 | See you not,"and I pressed his hand with my lips,"they are all gone already?" |
12958 | Shall I call her in?'' |
12958 | Shall I engage her to visit you? |
12958 | Shall I present you with a curiosity? |
12958 | Shall such a girl as this awe me by her rigid virtue? |
12958 | She asked me, pretty dear, just now, If I think there is such a happy girl in the world as she is? |
12958 | She returned, with an affected laugh,"Smartly said!--But art thou come hither, friend, to make thy light shine before men or women?" |
12958 | She says you can play on the harpsichord, and sing too; will you let a body have a tune or so? |
12958 | Sir, dispense with me on this occasion? |
12958 | Sir, what then was there on_ your_ side, in that matter, that made you give me so patient and so kind a hearing?" |
12958 | Sir, you had rather it were a girl than a boy?" |
12958 | Sir; it is you that part with me: and tell me, Sir, tell me but what you had intended should become of me?" |
12958 | Sir? |
12958 | Sir? |
12958 | Sir?" |
12958 | Sir?" |
12958 | Suppose my dear Mr. B. had five thousand pounds a year added to his present large income, would that increase his happiness? |
12958 | Tell me, how it is possible for me, in my situation, to avoid it?" |
12958 | That is to say, how a young lady ought to guard against and overcome the first favourable impressions?" |
12958 | That it would add to his cares, is no question; but could it give him one single comfort which he has not already? |
12958 | The business is, if Miss Darnford could love him well enough for a husband? |
12958 | The gentlemen laughed:"Is it shooting flying, Sir Jacob,"returned Sir Charles,"to praise that lady?" |
12958 | Then she must make a brighter appearance by far, and a more pleasing one too: for why? |
12958 | Then why this complaining? |
12958 | They are all living, I hope?" |
12958 | They have taken their house, I suppose: but what need they, when they''ll have one in Bedfordshire, and one in Lincolnshire? |
12958 | This frighted them both: Mr. H. swore, and said,"Who can that be?--Your lady''s gone with them, is n''t she?" |
12958 | This is it: I put it in my bosom, when he came up: he saw me do so:"Are you writing, my dear, what I must not see?" |
12958 | Thou married to a lord, and thy brother to a-- Can''st tell me what, Barbara? |
12958 | Thus( could your ladyship have thought it?) |
12958 | To whom were you directing your favours now? |
12958 | Towers,"may one ask, what particular subject was at this time your employment?" |
12958 | Towers,"whenever you censure any indiscretion, you seldom fail to give cautions how to avoid it; and pray let us know what is to be done in this case? |
12958 | Upon which my lady said, a little tartly,"Yes, and for a very good reason, I doubt not; for who cares to condemn himself?" |
12958 | Was the lady a woman of taste?" |
12958 | We being alone, after supper, I took the liberty to ask him, who was of his party to Oxford? |
12958 | Well, but what shall I say more? |
12958 | What a plague has this little witch done to you all? |
12958 | What ails you, Pamela?" |
12958 | What are they, my lord?" |
12958 | What can one do?--Did you ever hear of such a notion, before? |
12958 | What can one say to all things? |
12958 | What can two such ladies write, that I may not see?" |
12958 | What do you see of freedom in me?" |
12958 | What have I said now?" |
12958 | What made me such a fool, I wonder? |
12958 | What means that heaving sob? |
12958 | What new thing shall I have?" |
12958 | What occasion is there for it? |
12958 | What say you to these things, my dear? |
12958 | What think you, Mr. B.? |
12958 | What vexes me is, that when the noble uncle of this vile lady--(why do n''t you call her so as well as I?) |
12958 | What would I not do, in short, to procure to myself the inexpressible pleasure that I should have in your company and conversation? |
12958 | What would_ you_ advise, my dear?" |
12958 | What, I say, had I to do, to take upon me lady- airs, and to resent? |
12958 | What, I warrant, you would not be too much beholden to his honour, would you?" |
12958 | What, and make you cry''_ Fie!_''-or do you intend to trust your honour to his mercy, rather than to your own discretion?" |
12958 | What, indeed, does not such a deceiver deserve?" |
12958 | What, may I ask, came next? |
12958 | What_ can_ I say for Polly Barlow? |
12958 | What_ means my_ Pamela? |
12958 | When Mr. B. is all tenderness and indulgence, and requires of me nothing, that I can have a material objection to, ought I_ not_ to oblige him? |
12958 | Where have you been these two hours, that you never came near me, when you knew''twas my time to have my foot rubbed, which gives me mortal pain?" |
12958 | Which side are you of?" |
12958 | Who knows but we may find out some cousin or friend of Mr. Murray''s between us, that we may persuade to address you? |
12958 | Who''s housekeeper now? |
12958 | Who, that knows these things of him, would wish him to be hers, with all his advantages of person, mind, and fortune?" |
12958 | Why should I thus sadden all your gaudy prospects? |
12958 | Why starts this precious pearl?" |
12958 | Why tarry the wheels of his chariot?" |
12958 | Why the plague,"whispered he,"could you not have pitched your tent here? |
12958 | Why the word_ foolish_, aunt? |
12958 | Why then all this emotion?" |
12958 | Why, she is not to sit at table, is she? |
12958 | Will ladies game, Madam? |
12958 | Will my dear papa grant it, do you think, if you were to lay the highest obligation upon your dutiful daughter, and petition for me? |
12958 | Will that please you, Sir?" |
12958 | Will this instance, my dear, come up to your demand for one, where he recedes from his own will, in complaisance to mine? |
12958 | Will you excuse me, my dear, all this seeming vanity, for the sake of repeating exactly what passed? |
12958 | Will you excuse me, my dear? |
12958 | With how ill a grace must a man who will often be disguised in liquor, preach sobriety? |
12958 | Wo n''t it look like intolerable vanity in me, to find fault with such a genius as Mr. Locke? |
12958 | Wo n''t there be a fine twinkling and sparkling, think you, when the greater and lesser bear- stars are joined together? |
12958 | Would Miss Goodwin, think you, have done so or so?" |
12958 | Would he not have thought the humble cottager as capable of insolence, and vengeance too, in her turn, as the better born? |
12958 | Would it not be inevitable ruin to her to leave me? |
12958 | Would not his honour think if I hid one thing from him, I might hide another? |
12958 | Would you care to subscribe to it? |
12958 | Writing, I dare say? |
12958 | Yet what could he have done? |
12958 | Yet, how much better is it to suffer one''s self, than to be the cause of another''s sufferings? |
12958 | You are to suppose the living in your own hands again; will you leave the whole matter to my_ sister_ here?" |
12958 | You desire to know, my honoured papa, how Mr. B. passes his time, and whether it be in his lady''s chamber? |
12958 | You do n''t keep her company, do you?" |
12958 | You have had instances of the vile arts of men against poor maidens: have you any notion that Mr. H. intends to do honourably by you?" |
12958 | You''re the Countess of C.''s youngest daughter Jenny-- That''s your cue."--"Ah? |
12958 | _ Am_ I mistaken?" |
12958 | _ Common decency_, did you say? |
12958 | a passionate man, patience? |
12958 | added he:"Have you not a son worthy of such an alliance?" |
12958 | an irreligious man, piety? |
12958 | and that she wanted but the power, to shew the like unrelenting temper, by which she had so grievously suffered? |
12958 | and where the pleasure each seemed to take in the other''s, might possibly end? |
12958 | and whether you expected an answer from me to your last? |
12958 | and why that hesitation in your answer? |
12958 | as you do, what ails Mrs. Jervis? |
12958 | but tell me, who will part with their child, think you? |
12958 | coming to me, and folding me in his arms over the chair''s back, the seat of which supported my trembling knees,"Can you so easily part with me?" |
12958 | did I betray any impatience of speech or action, or any discomposure? |
12958 | fear you not an instant punishment for this appeal? |
12958 | goes?" |
12958 | hadst thou been born a fool, or a raw greenhead, or a doating greyhead--"--"What then, Sir Jacob?" |
12958 | how can you speak such a word? |
12958 | let it take its course!--How barbarously, methinks, I speak!--He ought to_ feel_ the lash, first, because he_ deserves_ it, poor little soul? |
12958 | might I not well be grave, knowing what I knew?) |
12958 | my dear lady, what could I do? |
12958 | my dear,"said I;"what is beauty, if she be not a good girl? |
12958 | my dear,"said he,"no papa and mamma!--Did they not send you a pretty black boy to wait upon you, a while ago? |
12958 | or do they not? |
12958 | rob me of heaven too? |
12958 | said I;"and is it thus, by_ repeating_ your fault, that you_ atone_ for it? |
12958 | said he, and stamped--"Who can choose but bless you? |
12958 | said he:"I hope you and she have had no words?" |
12958 | said she,''whither can she go, to be so happy as with me? |
12958 | said she:"how could you help it? |
12958 | said the silly girl--"yet that was like her voice!--Me''m, are you in your closet, Me''m?" |
12958 | that I should have been what I am?" |
12958 | we condemn every man who dresses well, and is not a sloven, as a fop or a coxcomb?" |
12958 | what wilt thou do? |
12958 | whistled he, with a wild stare:"and how is it with you, youngster?" |
12958 | who is she?" |
35784 | A bottle of your best brandy-- the French cognac? |
35784 | Always? |
35784 | Am I myself? 35784 Among the invited, Le Capitaine Ryecroft, I presume?" |
35784 | Amongst them did ye include forgin''? |
35784 | An otter, then? |
35784 | And I hope worthy of Olympe Renault? |
35784 | And all ready for starting? |
35784 | And comes down the river by boat, does n''t he? |
35784 | And has there been no search yet? |
35784 | And how am I to bring it home to them? 35784 And my saying that the man who had just got out of it, and gone inside, resembled a priest I''d seen but a day or two before?" |
35784 | And suppose we do that to- day? |
35784 | And supposing her to be alive,he asks,"where do you think she is now? |
35784 | And surer with a heavier one, as yourself, for instance? |
35784 | And the waterman too? |
35784 | And what after? |
35784 | And what did you hear? |
35784 | And where am I to bring it? |
35784 | And where has she slept? |
35784 | And who do you suspect besides? |
35784 | And why did n''t you, Gibbons? 35784 And without committing"--he fears to speak the ugly English word, but expresses the idea in French--"_cette dernier coup_?" |
35784 | And ye found them in the cubbert too? |
35784 | And you do think he has gone for good? |
35784 | And you really think she has n''t slept in her room? |
35784 | And you''d like to be a rich one? |
35784 | And you''re quite sure she has not slept in her room? |
35784 | And, supposing him identified, what follows? |
35784 | Are they there still? |
35784 | Are you quite sure, sir? 35784 Are you sure of it? |
35784 | As who? |
35784 | At what? |
35784 | Attending to culinary matters, I presume? 35784 Be there anythin''amiss?" |
35784 | Be what? |
35784 | Business-- wi''me? |
35784 | But ai n''t he stayin''in the neighbourhood longer than he first spoke of doin''? |
35784 | But could you as you are now, with clothes on, boots, and everything? |
35784 | But have you ever known of a boat being moored in there? |
35784 | But how can that concern any one save myself? |
35784 | But how gone? 35784 But how is it to be avoided?" |
35784 | But is there still? |
35784 | But not when he leaves at a late hour-- as, for instance, when he dines at the Court; which I know he has done several times? |
35784 | But then she was drowned also? 35784 But there be new people there now, ye sayed?" |
35784 | But what do you advise my doing,_ Père_? 35784 But what do you make of all that?" |
35784 | But what made ye go there, Jack? |
35784 | But what sort of man is he? 35784 But what''s to be the upshot? |
35784 | But why are you looking so often below? 35784 But why ca n''t it be done?" |
35784 | But why do you think he means fight? 35784 But why should she assist in such a dangerous deception-- at risk of her daughter''s life?" |
35784 | But why should we? |
35784 | But why, Jack? 35784 But why, madame?" |
35784 | But why? |
35784 | But yaw do n''t think he''s an adventuwer? |
35784 | But you are not recommending it now-- in this little convent matter? |
35784 | But you saw her in her coffin? 35784 But, shawly, that is n''t how the gentleman yondaw made acquaintance with the fair Gwendoline?" |
35784 | But,continues the Major, greatly moved,"you''ll forgive me, old fellow, for being so inquisitive? |
35784 | Can it be he? |
35784 | Can you wonder at that? |
35784 | Certainly? |
35784 | Do you mean to say you''re not aware of what''s happened? |
35784 | Do you suppose, Miss Lees, I have n''t penetrated your secret long ago? 35784 Do you think they''ll be out long?" |
35784 | Does what mean? |
35784 | Dressing, may be? 35784 Drowned? |
35784 | Fear of what? |
35784 | Frightened o''what? 35784 From the cold he caught that night, I suppose?" |
35784 | Had n''t we better keep on, an''make sure? |
35784 | Hansom, sir? |
35784 | Has any letter reached Llangorren Court? |
35784 | Have you a through ticket? |
35784 | Have you any idea whose? |
35784 | He visits often at the Court of late? |
35784 | He''s a gentleman, is he? |
35784 | He''s dying, then? |
35784 | He''s gone then? |
35784 | He''s out too, then? |
35784 | Head and shoulders? 35784 Her name?" |
35784 | How can I help thinkin''it? 35784 How can he, Jack?" |
35784 | How can it give you a belief in the girl being still alive? 35784 How far did the man say? |
35784 | How is it, Jack, that you, living but a short league above, do n''t know all about these people? |
35784 | How long is it since she went off? |
35784 | How long since they went off-- may I know, Miss Linton? |
35784 | How should I know, my son? 35784 How soon do you think? |
35784 | How then? |
35784 | How was he introduced? |
35784 | How would you like to live in that over yonder? |
35784 | How would you like, somebody else being with you in it--_if made worth your while_? |
35784 | How''d I like it, your Reverence? 35784 How''m I to help it, Miss Gwen? |
35784 | How,_ Pére_? |
35784 | How-- where? |
35784 | I mean for Miss Wynn, since the night of that ball? |
35784 | I see-- what of it? |
35784 | I wonder where the place is? 35784 In a worldly sense you mean? |
35784 | In that case, why did n''t you bring him in? |
35784 | In what direction did you hear them? |
35784 | In what respect? 35784 In what way could I?" |
35784 | In what way? 35784 In what way? |
35784 | In what way? |
35784 | Is it likely they will, Miss Linton? |
35784 | Is it strange, Ellen? |
35784 | Is it yourself? 35784 Is n''t it a beautiful creature?" |
35784 | Is that any reason we should n''t now? |
35784 | Is that so? |
35784 | Is there any landing- place there for a boat? |
35784 | Is what true? |
35784 | It is a love secret, then? 35784 It is your place to look after the letters, I believe?" |
35784 | It may as well be written now-- may it not? |
35784 | It''s very kind of you, Mahon; but that must depend on----"On what? |
35784 | Let him-- as many as he likes; you do n''t suppose I''ll believe them? |
35784 | Let me have a squint at it? |
35784 | Llangorren Court? |
35784 | May I have a hint o''what it is? |
35784 | May I know who that one is, Father Rogier? |
35784 | Meanin''o''what, sir? |
35784 | Mr. George Shenstone? |
35784 | Murdock is married, then? |
35784 | My wife? |
35784 | Nay, I am sure,continues Miss Linton, with provoking coolness,"they would have been glad to go riding with you; delighted--""But why ca n''t they?" |
35784 | Not here? |
35784 | Oh, mother, what did you dream about them? |
35784 | Old acquaintance; friend, I presume? 35784 Only whether-- whether she-- Miss Gwen, I mean-- said anything about riding to- day?" |
35784 | Ormeston Hall? 35784 Perhaps you''d prefer it being boots? |
35784 | Quite turn it upside down-- as your old truckle, eh? |
35784 | Richard--_le braconnier_--you''re thinking of? |
35784 | Rogue''s Ferry? 35784 Shall I read it to you?" |
35784 | Shall I turn the boat back? |
35784 | So you think he have a notion o''her, Jack? |
35784 | Somethin''to do wi''the coracle, have it? |
35784 | Still, it_ is_ strange, her not calling me, nor requiring my attendance? |
35784 | Sure, then, the Captain han''t been to visit them? |
35784 | Surely he will not be so stupid-- so insane? 35784 That all he said?" |
35784 | That you, Mary? |
35784 | That''s to be on Thursday, ye sayed? |
35784 | The canwyll corph? |
35784 | The heequall? |
35784 | The moon? |
35784 | Then there''s no trouble between you? |
35784 | Then what''s been a scarin''ye, mother? |
35784 | There ha''something happened? |
35784 | They did so? |
35784 | They mean mischief,mutters Wingate;"what''d we best do, Captain? |
35784 | To your great annoyance, no doubt, if it did not make you dreadfully jealous? |
35784 | Too late for what? 35784 True, how? |
35784 | True; and, availing myself of that, I might have been gone long since, as you supposed, but for----"For what? |
35784 | True; but does that bear upon our affair? |
35784 | True; but, then, there may come a fare the morrow, an''what if there do? 35784 Two hours ago they got off, you say?" |
35784 | WHERE''S GWEN? |
35784 | WHERE''S GWEN? |
35784 | Well, and what after? |
35784 | Well, did it strike you as a cry that would come from one falling over the cliff-- by accident, or otherwise? |
35784 | Well, what of it? |
35784 | Well; an''what if''t be? |
35784 | Well; what of him? |
35784 | Well? |
35784 | What are they? 35784 What are they? |
35784 | What article? |
35784 | What be there so odd in that? |
35784 | What can Jack be coming after? 35784 What can all that mean? |
35784 | What can it mean? |
35784 | What could be more ridiculous? |
35784 | What do you mean, Wingate? 35784 What do you think it was?" |
35784 | What fellow? |
35784 | What had he to say about me? |
35784 | What have you done with those addressed to Miss Wynn? |
35784 | What have you heard, mother? |
35784 | What have you? |
35784 | What hour? |
35784 | What is it, Wingate? |
35784 | What is it? |
35784 | What is it? |
35784 | What is it? |
35784 | What is it? |
35784 | What is it? |
35784 | What is it? |
35784 | What is there''specially repulsive about him? |
35784 | What makes you suppose she is there? |
35784 | What makes you think I''m lookin''that way? |
35784 | What may it be, your Reverence? |
35784 | What may that be, Father Rogier? |
35784 | What mean you, Gregoire? |
35784 | What more? |
35784 | What more? |
35784 | What news? |
35784 | What other respects? |
35784 | What other thing? |
35784 | What reasons? |
35784 | What say you, gentlemen? |
35784 | What sort of a man? |
35784 | What sort of anodyne? |
35784 | What then? |
35784 | What thing, pway? |
35784 | What thing? |
35784 | What train? |
35784 | What was it? 35784 What''s strangest?" |
35784 | What''s that for? |
35784 | What''s the meaning of all this, Joe? |
35784 | What, Gregoire? |
35784 | What, may I ask? |
35784 | What, then? |
35784 | What? |
35784 | What? |
35784 | What? |
35784 | What? |
35784 | What? |
35784 | What? |
35784 | Whatever be the matter wi''ye, Jack? |
35784 | Whatever ha''kep''ye, Jack? 35784 When is this horror to have an end? |
35784 | When might you want it, your Reverence? |
35784 | Where are they? |
35784 | Where are you going, Gwen? |
35784 | Where be the poor man abidin''now? |
35784 | Where can Gregoire have gone? |
35784 | Where did you find them? |
35784 | Where do they weesh the boat to be took? 35784 Where ha''ye heerd all this, Jack?" |
35784 | Where may that be? |
35784 | Where? 35784 Where?" |
35784 | Where? |
35784 | Where? |
35784 | Where? |
35784 | Which of us do you propose staying here? 35784 Which?" |
35784 | Who can be asking for me? |
35784 | Who could help liking it? |
35784 | Who is that young lady? |
35784 | Who is this other? |
35784 | Who the deuce is he? |
35784 | Who then? |
35784 | Who''s gone away? 35784 Who''s his endawser? |
35784 | Who? 35784 Who?" |
35784 | Who? |
35784 | Who? |
35784 | Whose is it, Jack? |
35784 | Why all this emotion about such a_ misérable_? 35784 Why d''yaw say that, Jawge?" |
35784 | Why do you say so, Captain Ryecroft? |
35784 | Why do you think that? 35784 Why must you? |
35784 | Why odd? |
35784 | Why should I? 35784 Why should it?" |
35784 | Why so? |
35784 | Why too well? |
35784 | Why wo n''t it do in the mornin''? |
35784 | Why, George; where else could they go rowing? 35784 Why, Ryecroft, you''re surely joking?" |
35784 | Wi''who? |
35784 | Will you take it neat, or mixed wi''a drop o''water? |
35784 | Wish to do what? |
35784 | With safety? |
35784 | Would it greatly surprise you if to- night your husband did n''t come home to you? |
35784 | Wynn, eh? 35784 Ye ha''been into the chapel buryin''groun'', then?" |
35784 | Ye had a big time last night at Llangorren? |
35784 | Ye say ye know him better than ye did? 35784 Ye suspect somebody, then?" |
35784 | Ye''re to see him the morrow, then? |
35784 | Yes; well? |
35784 | You advise my going over to Llangorren? |
35784 | You can write, Jack, ca n''t you? |
35784 | You do n''t think it was Dick and his coracle, then? |
35784 | You have n''t yet told me his name? |
35784 | You mean the tongue of_ le braconnier_? |
35784 | You mean----? |
35784 | You said nothing of this at the inquest? |
35784 | You say you''ve brought them along? |
35784 | You see something? |
35784 | You think only_ days_? |
35784 | You think there were others? |
35784 | You''re not going to Paris now-- not this night? |
35784 | You''re quite sure of that,_ ma fille_? |
35784 | You''re quite sure there was a boat, Wingate? |
35784 | You''re sure you''ll be able? |
35784 | You''ve been to the Ferry, then? |
35784 | You''ve done something to keep him quiet? |
35784 | Your waterman, sir, Wingate, says he''d like to see you, if convenient? |
35784 | _ Chat maudit!_ But what has that to do with your daughter''s going to the Ferry? |
35784 | _ Comment?_ Explain! |
35784 | _ Le bagage bien arrangé?_"_ Parfaitement_; or, as we say in English, neat as a trivet. 35784 _ Moi aussi!_ Who,_ Père_? |
35784 | _ Oui, m''ssieu; oui._"When is it to be? |
35784 | _ Oui._"When? |
35784 | _ Quelque chose à tort?_"More than that. 35784 _ Vraiment!_ I ask you again-- have you thought of anything, Gregoire?" |
35784 | A gentle tapping at the door tells him the triangle is touched; and, responding to the signal, he calls out,--"That you, Jack Wingate? |
35784 | A nate thing, and a close shave, was n''t it? |
35784 | Above all, who are the men in it? |
35784 | Above all, why her distraught look, with the sigh accompanying it, as the baronet''s son went galloping out of the gate? |
35784 | After a sip, he resumes speech with the remark,--"If I mistake not, you are a poor man, Monsieur Dempsey?" |
35784 | After a time it occurs to him he has been spoken to, and asks,--"What did you observe, Wingate?" |
35784 | After a time, he again observes,--"You''ve said you do n''t know the ladies we''ve helped out of their little trouble?" |
35784 | After all, what do it matter-- only a bit o''weed?" |
35784 | All I said was, that somebody thinks so; and that is n''t I. Shall I tell you who it is?" |
35784 | All that can be said is, she disappeared on the night of the ball, without telling any one; no trace left behind-- except----""Except what?" |
35784 | Am I not right? |
35784 | Am I, indeed, to pass the remainder of my days within this dismal cell? |
35784 | An''if I an''t astray, he be the one your Reverence thinks would not be any the worse o''a wettin''?" |
35784 | An''t she a bewty? |
35784 | An''t she?" |
35784 | An''what d''ye want wi''me?" |
35784 | And a pretty sight it is, is n''t it? |
35784 | And d''y''spose I did n''t obsarve them glances exchanged twixt you and the salmon fisher-- sly, but, for all that, hot as streaks o''fire? |
35784 | And d''ye think I did n''t see Mr. Whitecap going down, afore ye thought o''a row yerself? |
35784 | And did not thy limpid waters bathe the feet of Fair Rosamond, in childhood''s days, when she herself was pure? |
35784 | And having gone so, the questions are, why, and whither? |
35784 | And how is she to give it, with least pain to him? |
35784 | And if other, what its business? |
35784 | And if suicide, why? |
35784 | And is it not for him they are there; risking liberty-- it may be life? |
35784 | And the cry heard so soon after? |
35784 | And the quarrel-- how did it end? |
35784 | And this very day, what meant Mr. Shenstone by that sudden and abrupt departure? |
35784 | And was in the water some time?" |
35784 | And what but the body of Gwendoline Wynn? |
35784 | And what can be keeping_ her_? |
35784 | And who?" |
35784 | And why am I to rejoice?" |
35784 | And why should n''t she, Père Rogier? |
35784 | And you think she will be able to obtain the information, without in any way compromising herself?" |
35784 | Anyhow, he''ll want her to go down to them grand doin''s at Llangorren Court?" |
35784 | Are you sure of that, Father Rogier?" |
35784 | As he is not questioned about these, why should he? |
35784 | As he stands with eyes glaring upon them, he is again accosted by his inquisitive acquaintance, who asks:"What''s the matter, Jawge? |
35784 | Be''t anybody ha''stoled the things out o''the boat? |
35784 | Bean''t there somethin''amiss?" |
35784 | Beast, bird, or fish?" |
35784 | Being so observant, I wonder if this everybody has also observed how I receive them?" |
35784 | Besides, is he not back there-- come of his own accord-- to confront his accusers, if any there still be? |
35784 | Brought up under the_ regimé_ of Louis and trained in the school of Eugenie, why need she fear either social slight or exclusion? |
35784 | But Mahon, drawing them for himself, says searchingly--"Then you have a suspicion there''s been what''s commonly called foul play?" |
35784 | But can it be the priest who is in it? |
35784 | But has she been borne off by force, or went she willingly? |
35784 | But have you any thoughts as to how we should proceed?" |
35784 | But how came I to it? |
35784 | But how could she think that? |
35784 | But how does it corrupt them?" |
35784 | But how have I come into it? |
35784 | But how is it to be hindered?" |
35784 | But how, your Reverence? |
35784 | But if only one, and that her, what of himself? |
35784 | But speaking seriously, Ryecroft, as you say you''re on business, may I know its nature?" |
35784 | But the Cognac? |
35784 | But the latter-- is it still alive and flourishing? |
35784 | But the time? |
35784 | But what am I thinkin''o''? |
35784 | But what do you conclude from its not having been?" |
35784 | But what is beauty to her with all these adjuncts? |
35784 | But what its width or depth, compared with that other something between? |
35784 | But what led ye to think he ha''been also in the housebreakin''line?" |
35784 | But what matters it? |
35784 | But what''s brought you to Boulogne?" |
35784 | But what''s the use of talking of a thing not likely to happen?" |
35784 | But what''s your argument?" |
35784 | But where are they? |
35784 | But where is the other, the false one? |
35784 | But whither?" |
35784 | But who in the deuce is the gentleman? |
35784 | But whom do you suspect?" |
35784 | But why be you so partic''lar about my goin''out-- this night more''n any other?" |
35784 | But why do ye ask? |
35784 | But why on each and every occasion has he found a gentleman there-- the same every time-- George Shenstone by name? |
35784 | But you surely do n''t suppose I could think of him as a sweetheart? |
35784 | But, maybe, I make too free, asking your business in Boulogne?" |
35784 | By the way, I hear you''re about to have grand doings at the Court-- a ball, and what not?" |
35784 | By the way, have I got my purse with me?" |
35784 | By the way, what have you got in that black jack?" |
35784 | Can I?" |
35784 | Can she be English? |
35784 | Can the chasm which angry words have created be bridged over? |
35784 | Can you?" |
35784 | Controlling it, the other asks, with diminished interest, still earnestly,--"What leads you to think that way, Wingate? |
35784 | D''d ye hear that, Captain?" |
35784 | Did n''t I, your Reverence? |
35784 | Did n''t it strike you so, Nelly?" |
35784 | Do n''t you think so?" |
35784 | Do you chance to know him?" |
35784 | Do you know where you can borrow such, or hire it?" |
35784 | Do you really mean that, Captain Ryecroft?" |
35784 | Does any one know who was his boatman?" |
35784 | Does he live at Llangorren? |
35784 | Does n''t it?" |
35784 | Dreaming? |
35784 | Dropped, of course; but under what circumstances? |
35784 | Dropping egg and cup, in stark astonishment, she demands:"What do you mean, Gibbons?" |
35784 | Dublin is his native place; but what would or could he now do there? |
35784 | Even if it were, you seem to forget that her mother, father-- all of them-- must have been cognizant of these facts-- if facts?" |
35784 | Fell from a foot plank, you told me? |
35784 | Flirting while engaged-- what might she do when married? |
35784 | For himself? |
35784 | For its solution he appeals to Ryecroft, asking,--"How about the moon?" |
35784 | For what are either now to him? |
35784 | George Shenstone? |
35784 | Giving the lurcher a kick to quiet the animal, he pulls back the bolt, and draws open the door, as he does so asking,"That you, Father Rogier?" |
35784 | Ha''the thing been cut off, or pulled up?" |
35784 | Ha''ye larned anythin''''bout him o''late?" |
35784 | Has any occurred to you, Gregoire?" |
35784 | Has it indeed carried away Gwen Wynn? |
35784 | Have I hit the nail upon the head?" |
35784 | Have I not played it to perfection?" |
35784 | Have you a reason?" |
35784 | Have you any idea of the reason, Nelly?" |
35784 | Have you any idea?" |
35784 | Have you?" |
35784 | He does not wait for her to speak; but asks excitedly:--"What''s the matter, mother?" |
35784 | He does so, asking:"But, Miss Gwen, what will your aunt say to it? |
35784 | He is himself interrogated the instant after, thus,--"You see that shadowed spot under the bank-- by the wall?" |
35784 | He''s shown the white feather?" |
35784 | He, however, has no doubt of it, muttering to himself,--"Wonder whose boat can be on the river this time o''night-- mornin'', I ought to say? |
35784 | Her face in the glass-- what the expression upon it? |
35784 | Her reflection followed by the inquiry, called out--"_ C''est vous, mon mari?_""Of course it is. |
35784 | His name, of course; but what the destination? |
35784 | His name?" |
35784 | His reverence is a Frenchman, is he?" |
35784 | How are the other twenty being spent? |
35784 | How are they to be occupied? |
35784 | How came he intwoduced at Llangowen?" |
35784 | How can she expect him to have resisted, or that his heart is still whole? |
35784 | How comes it to have been there in the summer- house? |
35784 | How could I expect or hope he would? |
35784 | How could he help? |
35784 | How could he otherwise? |
35784 | How could he while his young mistress lived? |
35784 | How could he, while so keenly suffering it for her? |
35784 | How could it be otherwise? |
35784 | How could she have lived throughout all that? |
35784 | How could there, since the younger addresses the older as"uncle"; himself in return being styled"nevvy"? |
35784 | How could there? |
35784 | How could there?" |
35784 | How could they otherwise? |
35784 | How could they? |
35784 | How else is her disappearance to be accounted for? |
35784 | How far?" |
35784 | How has she been taking it?" |
35784 | How is it you have n''t gone?" |
35784 | How is the odd time being spent by him? |
35784 | I han''t heerd her name; what be it?" |
35784 | I intend starting off within the hour, and, expecting a letter of some importance, may I ask you to glance over them again?" |
35784 | I merely wished to knaw who Mr. White Cap is?" |
35784 | I suppose leverets are plentiful just now, and easily caught, since they can no longer retreat to the standing corn?" |
35784 | I suppose she thought I''d gone to my room, and did n''t wish to disturb me? |
35784 | I suppose the train will be starting in a few minutes?" |
35784 | I suppose you''ve heard?" |
35784 | I take it they''re sufficient for reaching either bank of this river, supposing the skiff to get capsized, and you in it?" |
35784 | I think you told me she often accompanies him down to the boat stair at his departure?" |
35784 | I was only wondering why Miss Gwen-- that is, I am a little astonished-- but-- perhaps you''ll think it impertinent of me to ask another question?" |
35784 | If I mistake not, you can swim like a fish?" |
35784 | If I''ve been rightly informed, Miss Wynn, it belongs to a relative of yours?" |
35784 | If questioned about these commodities, what answer is he to make? |
35784 | If you do n''t expect pleasure there, for what should you be in such haste to reach it? |
35784 | In what does Mrs. Murdock differ from the rest of your Herefordshire fair?" |
35784 | In what way? |
35784 | Indirectly, then? |
35784 | Instead, it but adds to her bewilderment, and she once more exclaims, almost repeating herself,--"Am I myself? |
35784 | Instead, why not in angry spite fling it off-- as it has me? |
35784 | Instead, with simulated calmness, he says:"Suppose I step out and see whether she be near at hand?" |
35784 | Into France, too; for surely am I there? |
35784 | Is it a dream? |
35784 | Is it a sin? |
35784 | Is it growing? |
35784 | Is it hare?" |
35784 | Is it labelled?" |
35784 | Is it possible-- so early?" |
35784 | Is it possible?" |
35784 | Is it so, my son? |
35784 | Is it true?" |
35784 | Is n''t that so?" |
35784 | Is that true, Gwendoline? |
35784 | Is the priest jesting? |
35784 | Is there any harm in it?" |
35784 | Is there anything else you think of?" |
35784 | Is there thought of it in her heart-- for him? |
35784 | It is Miss Wynn who has commenced it, saying,--"You''ll come up to the house, and let me introduce you to my aunt?" |
35784 | It is all gone?" |
35784 | It is of him the priest speaks as king,--"Has he signed the will?" |
35784 | It is the lady who speaks first:--"I understand you''ve been but a short while resident in our neighbourhood, Captain Ryecroft?" |
35784 | It is to"blight his life''s bloom,"leaving him"an age all winters?" |
35784 | It''s but natural I should love our beautiful Wye-- I, born on its banks, brought up on them, and, I suppose, likely to----""What?" |
35784 | Jack?" |
35784 | Knaw him?" |
35784 | Less from observing his abstraction, than the slow, negligent movements of his knife and fork, the mother asks--"What''s the matter with ye, Jack? |
35784 | Let me see-- was it? |
35784 | Let me see; when will that be?" |
35784 | Madame la Chatelaine oblivious, I apprehend; in the midst of her afternoon nap?" |
35784 | May I ask what it is?" |
35784 | May I ask who is this_ she_ you''re soliloquising about? |
35784 | May I know them?" |
35784 | Maybe,"he continues, in a tone of confidential suggestion,"there be somebody as you think ought to get a duckin''beside myself?" |
35784 | Might_ he_ be a cousin?" |
35784 | Miss Wynn?" |
35784 | Mr. Murdock''s a character, then?" |
35784 | Murdock has himself come easily by it, and why should he not be made as easily to part with it? |
35784 | Murdock?" |
35784 | Musgrave?" |
35784 | Musgrave?" |
35784 | Need I tell you who sent it, Richard Dempsey?" |
35784 | No enemy, I hope?" |
35784 | Not Monsieur Shenstone, after all?" |
35784 | Not alone, I take it?" |
35784 | Not much in the manner, I should say; but altogether the contrary,"she laughs, adding--"And how do you like our Wye?" |
35784 | Not on the sick list, I hope?" |
35784 | Not receiving immediate answer, Ellen again asked--"Is there any danger you fear?" |
35784 | Not the Captain?" |
35784 | Now, Captain, what do ye think o''the whole thing?" |
35784 | Now, Jack, whose boat could that be if it wa''nt your''n?" |
35784 | Now, Monsieur, do you comprehend me?" |
35784 | Odd succession of events, is it not?" |
35784 | Of course you''ll stay, gentlemen? |
35784 | Only with my life? |
35784 | Only, who these redemptionists are that take such interest in my spiritual welfare, and how I have come to be here, surely I may know?" |
35784 | Or am I mad? |
35784 | Or am I to wait for''em here?" |
35784 | Or have my senses indeed forsaken me?" |
35784 | Or in that face, dark and disfigured, who could recognise the once radiant countenance of Llangorren''s young heiress? |
35784 | Or is it insanity?" |
35784 | Or is there yet a chance of reconciliation? |
35784 | Or would ye rather be took on up to the town? |
35784 | Or, stepping off, does he spurn the boat with angry heel, as in angry speech he has done her whose name it bears? |
35784 | Out at this hour?" |
35784 | Perhaps in Paris? |
35784 | Perhaps you''ll extend it, and favour me with the lady''s name? |
35784 | Rang no bell? |
35784 | Ryecroft smiles, further interrogating:--"What have you heard of her?" |
35784 | S''pose we gie''em a capsize?" |
35784 | S''pose we slide after, and see where she hangs out?" |
35784 | Sadness, or joy? |
35784 | Saying which, she slips several shillings into his hand, adding, as she notes the effect--"Do you think it sufficiently heavy? |
35784 | Shall I call him in?" |
35784 | Shall I run down to the boat- dock and see?" |
35784 | She mayent like you young ladies to go rowin''by yourselves? |
35784 | She''s at home, is n''t she?" |
35784 | Shenstone?" |
35784 | Shenstone?" |
35784 | Shenstone?" |
35784 | Should ye like take a drop o''somethin''''fores you lie down?" |
35784 | Sidling up to the girl, he asks, in a tone which tells of lovers_ en rapport_, mutually, unmistakably--"When, Mary?" |
35784 | So, my boy, you perceive the necessity of our acting with caution in this business, whatever trouble or time it may take-- don''t you?" |
35784 | Some business?" |
35784 | Some of your old English_ bonnes amies_, I suppose?" |
35784 | Something happened between you, eh?" |
35784 | Something wrong?" |
35784 | Soon again he resumes his conjectured soliloquy:--"''Tan''t possible she ha''been to the Ferry, an''goed back again? |
35784 | Suppose I write a note requesting his presence, with explanations?" |
35784 | Suppose hers should some day go to the bottom, she being in it?" |
35784 | Suppose we do?" |
35784 | Surely I''d have heard it? |
35784 | Surely it can not come from any of the sisters? |
35784 | Surely our oaks, elms, and poplars can not be compared with the tall palms and graceful tree ferns of the tropics?" |
35784 | Surely she has been found?" |
35784 | Surely the Captain is not going to call on Mr. Lewin Murdock-- in amicable intercourse? |
35784 | Surely you arn''t goin''out again the night?" |
35784 | Surely, not a pleasure excursion, at such an unreasonable hour-- night just drawing down? |
35784 | Taking her seat, she asks:"Where''s Gwen?" |
35784 | Tell me why I am here?" |
35784 | That appears too early for the after event? |
35784 | The balin''pan, or that bit o''cushion in the stern?" |
35784 | The boat coming back? |
35784 | The first is,--"You''re not afraid of water, are you, Dick?" |
35784 | The longer before fishing the thing up, the better it will be for our purposes: you comprehend?" |
35784 | The same name, you''re sure?" |
35784 | Then adding, as he observes a young man leap down from the box where he has had seat beside the driver,"Part of your belongings, is n''t he?" |
35784 | Then succeeds inquiry as to how the death has been brought about; whether it be a case of suicide or assassination? |
35784 | Then why be ye looking so black?" |
35784 | There han''t been nobody to the house-- has there?" |
35784 | They hold their_ téte- à- téte_ there at times, do they?" |
35784 | They may not know where I am? |
35784 | Three of them-- that at least in curious correspondence? |
35784 | To the first,''How?'' |
35784 | True there will be four against two; but what of it? |
35784 | True, your Wye is subject to sudden floods; might it have aught to do with them?" |
35784 | Turning savagely on Ryecroft, he stammers out--"Hic-- ic-- who the blazes be you, Mr. White Cap? |
35784 | Upon what do you base them?" |
35784 | WHAT DOES HE WANT? |
35784 | WHAT DOES HE WANT? |
35784 | Waked for two days, as I understood you; then laid in her grave? |
35784 | Was n''t it a little strange?" |
35784 | Was n''t it,_ chèrie_?" |
35784 | Was the girl good looking?" |
35784 | Well, what''d I best do? |
35784 | What answer did you gie to the man?" |
35784 | What are your own thoughts about it, Jack?" |
35784 | What are your reasons for doubting it?" |
35784 | What boat could have been there but his own? |
35784 | What can I remember? |
35784 | What can he be doing down there? |
35784 | What care I?" |
35784 | What could it mean? |
35784 | What could it mean?" |
35784 | What did the sarvint say?" |
35784 | What difference whether he find the grave of his griefs in Paris or Boulogne-- if find it he can? |
35784 | What do I care?" |
35784 | What do you know of_ him_?" |
35784 | What for could have been angry words? |
35784 | What ha''become o''they?" |
35784 | What have you done with them?" |
35784 | What have you got to reward me for it?" |
35784 | What if there be some one on the road, or the river''s bank, and be seen in the act of capsizing his own boat? |
35784 | What is it? |
35784 | What is it?" |
35784 | What is such a man doing in Herefordshire? |
35784 | What is this barometer you seem to place such confidence in? |
35784 | What is to compare with that to come? |
35784 | What makes ye think he ha''been a forger?" |
35784 | What man in love, profoundly, passionately as he, could believe his last chance eliminated, or have his ultimate hope extinguished? |
35784 | What matter? |
35784 | What mean you?" |
35784 | What say you, Nell?" |
35784 | What say you, Wingate?" |
35784 | What should be my first pretence? |
35784 | What should we do to''em, Captain?" |
35784 | What sort of fellow is he?" |
35784 | What sort of place is it? |
35784 | What sort of sound?" |
35784 | What step do you wish me to take first?" |
35784 | What then? |
35784 | What then? |
35784 | What was it, pray?" |
35784 | What will_ they_ do?--and think? |
35784 | What would ye think o''my predecessor here bein''a burglar as well as smasher?" |
35784 | What''s cheerin''him? |
35784 | What''s that? |
35784 | What''s the hour now? |
35784 | What''s your idea, Mahon?" |
35784 | What, after all, if his suspicions prove groundless, and it turn out that Captain Ryecroft is entirely innocent? |
35784 | What, in Protestant England? |
35784 | What_ has_ occurred there?" |
35784 | What_ jeu d''esprit_ has he been perpetrating?" |
35784 | When I left the ferry, he was in the Welsh Harp, as I was told, tossing sovereigns upon its bar counter,''Heads and tails, who wins?'' |
35784 | When seated at the table, the Major asks,--"What on earth has delayed you, Vivian? |
35784 | When will it be over?" |
35784 | When, and where?" |
35784 | When? |
35784 | Whence all this plenty, within walls where of late and for so long has been such scarcity? |
35784 | Where do you suppose, mother?" |
35784 | Where is he who has both to be relied upon? |
35784 | Where is the beautiful woman, by both beloved, fondly, passionately? |
35784 | Where is the man who would not feel flattered, gratified, to be the shrine of such sacrifice, and from such a worshipper? |
35784 | Where is the man who would not rather know his sweetheart dead than see her in the arms of a rival? |
35784 | Where, and how, is one to be had? |
35784 | Where?" |
35784 | Where?" |
35784 | Where?" |
35784 | Whether in the country, or in a town among houses? |
35784 | Which did she go by-- the path or the lane? |
35784 | Which is she to take? |
35784 | Which quarter is she in? |
35784 | Which way did you come, Father Rogier-- the path or the lane?" |
35784 | Whither then? |
35784 | Who could fail to observe that pretty hand play, when you two were twining the ivy around the altar- rail? |
35784 | Who could''a carried it across the river-- that night especial, wi''a flood lippin''full up to the banks? |
35784 | Who dreams of that? |
35784 | Who else could it be? |
35784 | Who has brought me? |
35784 | Who is to do this? |
35784 | Who knows but that in a fit of drunken bravado he may stake the whole estate on a single turn of cards or cast of dice? |
35784 | Who says I do?" |
35784 | Who so circumstanced ever does? |
35784 | Who would n''t with such laws-- unrighteous, oppressive to the poor? |
35784 | Who, Père?" |
35784 | Who, then, is the owner of the brooch, bracelets, and other bijouterie? |
35784 | Who-- what is he?" |
35784 | Who?" |
35784 | Why all this? |
35784 | Why did I ever leave you?" |
35784 | Why did he not start earlier? |
35784 | Why do you wish that?" |
35784 | Why has it stopped there? |
35784 | Why is he not here? |
35784 | Why is it staying? |
35784 | Why not, Miss Wynn?" |
35784 | Why not?" |
35784 | Why should I not dissemble? |
35784 | Why should I?" |
35784 | Why should I?" |
35784 | Why should it? |
35784 | Why should she have gone outside? |
35784 | Why should that attract the attention of the young Herefordshire squire, causing him to start, as it first catches his eye? |
35784 | Why then should I cling to it? |
35784 | Why, may I ask? |
35784 | Why? |
35784 | Will ye let me wake her up? |
35784 | Will your Reverence enlighten me?" |
35784 | Within a mile of their own home, and still within the boundary of the Llangorren land, how could they think of danger such as is threatening? |
35784 | Wonder what it means? |
35784 | Wonder why she did n''t wake me up? |
35784 | Would you desire that?" |
35784 | Wyquoft-- Wyquoft, you say?" |
35784 | Ye remember my tellin''you, mother?" |
35784 | Ye see what comes o''sich as they humbuggin''about in a boat?" |
35784 | Ye understand me, mother?" |
35784 | Ye''ll remember the night we come up from the ball, my tellin''ye I had an engagement the next day to take the young Powells down the river?" |
35784 | Yet, would you believe it, Nelly, notwithstanding all, I sometimes have a strange fear upon me?" |
35784 | You comprehend?" |
35784 | You comprehend?" |
35784 | You do n''t expect the Father, our only visitor, to- night? |
35784 | You have it in the house, I hope?" |
35784 | You know his name?" |
35784 | You know the place-- you know the ring, too?" |
35784 | You mean Captain Ryecroft?" |
35784 | You really admire it?" |
35784 | You see that big poplar standing on the bank there?" |
35784 | You see that building below?" |
35784 | You see that?" |
35784 | You will, wo n''t you?" |
35784 | You''ll stand by me, Mahon?" |
35784 | You''ll stay to dinner with us, Father Rogier?" |
35784 | You''ll stay? |
35784 | _ Comprenez- vous, chèrie?_""_ Parfaitement!_ But how is it to be brought to a termination. |
35784 | a pleasure trip, I suppose?" |
35784 | an''t he, Jack?" |
35784 | and the men in it those whose names he had mentioned? |
35784 | cry both gentlemen in a breath, seeming alike vexed by the intelligence, Shenstone mechanically interrogating:"On the river?" |
35784 | ejaculated the Major, struck by the words, and their despondent tone,"what''s this, old fellow? |
35784 | groans the young girl in despair, flinging herself along the pallet, and for the third time interrogating,"Am I myself, and dreaming? |
35784 | he repeats, with a look of blank astonishment--"What the deuce does it mean?" |
35784 | nigh on the stroke o''eleven? |
35784 | she exclaims involuntarily, adding, in a timid whisper,"Was it, Gregoire?" |
35784 | she exclaims, as if pricked by a pin,"Mademoiselle to be married?" |
35784 | she exclaims, in feigned astonishment,"ye bean''t a comin''from the Ferry that way?" |
35784 | she exclaims,"what are we to do? |
35784 | the Morgans?" |
35784 | this time you_ have_ an errand? |
35784 | what d''ye mean?" |
35784 | what do it mean?" |
35784 | what is to become of me? |
35784 | what shall we do?" |
35784 | what way?" |
35784 | what''s going on at Llangorren?" |
35784 | where am I to find this means?" |
35784 | where?" |
35784 | who can tell? |
35784 | why did I not know it before?" |
35784 | would n''t you like to be sellin''her a pair of kids-- Jouvin''s best-- helpin''her draw them on, eh?" |
35784 | yonder''s a very different sort of pedestrian approaching it? |
35784 | you have learnt something since?" |
35784 | you know it?" |
35784 | you''ll break your journey here, and stay a few days with me? |
35196 | A bottle of your best brandy-- the French cognac? |
35196 | Addicted to dipsomania? |
35196 | Always? |
35196 | Am I myself? 35196 Among the invited Le Capitaine Ryecroft, I presume?" |
35196 | Amongst them did ye include forgin''? |
35196 | An otter, then? |
35196 | And I hope worthy of Olympe Renault? |
35196 | And all ready for starting? |
35196 | And has there been no search yet? |
35196 | And how am I to bring it home to them? 35196 And my saying that the man who had just got out of it, and gone inside, resembled a priest I''d seen but a day or two before?" |
35196 | And suppose we do that to- day? |
35196 | And supposing her to be alive,he asks,"where do you think she is now? |
35196 | And surer with a heavier one, as yourself, for instance? |
35196 | And the waterman, too? |
35196 | And what after? |
35196 | And what did you hear? |
35196 | And where am I to bring it? |
35196 | And where has she slept? |
35196 | And who do you suspect besides? |
35196 | And why did n''t you, Gibbons? 35196 And without committing,"--he fears to speak the ugly English word, but expresses the idea in French--"_cette dernier coup_?" |
35196 | And ye found them in the cubbert too? |
35196 | And you do think he has gone for good? |
35196 | And you really think she has n''t slept in her room? |
35196 | And you''d like to be a rich one? |
35196 | And you''re quite sure she has not slept in her room? |
35196 | And, supposing him identified, what follows? |
35196 | Are they there still? |
35196 | Are you quite sure, sir? 35196 Are you sure of it? |
35196 | As who? |
35196 | At what? |
35196 | Attending to culinary matters, I presume? 35196 Be there anythin''amiss?" |
35196 | Be what? |
35196 | Business-- wi''me? |
35196 | But ai n''t he stayin''in the neighbourhood longer than he first spoke of doin''? |
35196 | But could you as you are now-- with clothes on, boots, and everything? |
35196 | But have you ever known of a boat being moored in there? |
35196 | But he''s very good- looking? |
35196 | But how can that concern any one save myself? |
35196 | But how gone? 35196 But how is it to be avoided?" |
35196 | But is there still? |
35196 | But not when he leaves at a late hour-- as, for instance, when he dines at the Court; which I know he has done several times? |
35196 | But surely it is not so? 35196 But then she was drowned also? |
35196 | But there be new people there now, ye sayed? |
35196 | But what do you advise my doing,_ Pere_? 35196 But what do you make of all that?" |
35196 | But what made ye go there, Jack? |
35196 | But what sort of man is he? 35196 But what''s to be the upshot? |
35196 | But why are you looking so often below? 35196 But why ca n''t it be done?" |
35196 | But why do you think he means fight? 35196 But why should she assist in such a dangerous deception-- at risk of her daughter''s life?" |
35196 | But why should we? |
35196 | But why, Jack? 35196 But why, madame?" |
35196 | But why? |
35196 | But yaw do n''t think he''s an adventuwer? |
35196 | But you are not recommending it, now-- in this little convent matter? |
35196 | But you saw her in her coffin? 35196 But, shawly, that is n''t how the gentleman yondaw made acquaintance with the fair Gwendoline?" |
35196 | But,continues the Major, greatly moved,"you''ll forgive me, old fellow, for being so inquisitive? |
35196 | Can it be he? |
35196 | Can you wonder at that? |
35196 | Come, Captain Ryecroft; you know what I allude to? |
35196 | Do n''t yield the_ Sassenach_ an inch? |
35196 | Do you mean to say you''re not aware of what''s happened? |
35196 | Do you suppose, Miss Lees, I have n''t penetrated your secret long ago? 35196 Do you think they''ll be out long?" |
35196 | Does what mean? |
35196 | Dressing, may be? 35196 Drowned? |
35196 | Fear of what? |
35196 | Frightened o''what? 35196 From the cold he caught that night, I suppose?" |
35196 | Had n''t we better keep on, an''make sure? |
35196 | Hansom, sir? |
35196 | Has any letter reached Llangorren Court? |
35196 | Have you a through ticket? |
35196 | Have you any idea whose? |
35196 | He visits often at the Court of late? |
35196 | He with the vewy peculya head gear? 35196 He''s a gentleman, is he?" |
35196 | He''s dying, then? |
35196 | He''s gone then? |
35196 | He''s out too, then? |
35196 | Her name? |
35196 | How can I help thinkin''it? 35196 How can he, Jack?" |
35196 | How can it give you a belief in the girl being still alive? 35196 How far did the man say? |
35196 | How long is it since she went off? |
35196 | How long since they went off-- may I know, Miss Linton? |
35196 | How should I know, my son? 35196 How soon do you think? |
35196 | How then? |
35196 | How was he introduced? |
35196 | How would you like to live in that over yonder? |
35196 | How would you like, somebody else being with you in it--_if made worth your while_? |
35196 | How''d I like it, your Reverence? 35196 How''m I to help it, Miss Gwen? |
35196 | How,_ Pere_? |
35196 | How-- where? |
35196 | I can understand all that; still I do n''t quite see its application, or how the English Foreign Minister can be interested in those you allude to? |
35196 | I mean for Miss Wynn-- since the night of that ball? |
35196 | I wonder where the place is? 35196 In a worldly sense, you mean? |
35196 | In that case, why did n''t you bring him in? |
35196 | In what direction did you hear them? |
35196 | In what respect? 35196 In what way could I?" |
35196 | In what way? 35196 In what way? |
35196 | In what way? |
35196 | Is it likely they will, Miss Linton? |
35196 | Is it strange, Ellen? |
35196 | Is it yourself? 35196 Is n''t it a beautiful creature?" |
35196 | Is that any reason we should n''t now? |
35196 | Is that so? |
35196 | Is there any landing- place there for a boat? |
35196 | Is what true? |
35196 | It be a bird, Captain? 35196 It is a love secret, then? |
35196 | It is your place to look after the letters, I believe? |
35196 | It may as well be written now-- may it not? |
35196 | It''s very kind of you, Mahon; but that must depend on--"On what? |
35196 | Let him-- as many as he likes; you do n''t suppose I''ll believe them? |
35196 | Let me have a squint at it? |
35196 | Let me hear it, Mahon? |
35196 | Llangowen Court? |
35196 | May I have a hint o''what it is? |
35196 | May I know who that one is, Father Rogier? |
35196 | Meanin''o''what, sir? |
35196 | Mr George Shenstone? |
35196 | Murdock is married, then? |
35196 | My wife? |
35196 | Nay, I am sure,continues Miss Linton, with provoking coolness,"they would have been glad to go riding with you; delighted--""But why ca n''t they?" |
35196 | No, Mahon; instead, proved himself as brave a fellow as ever stood before sword point, or dared pistol bullet? |
35196 | Not here? |
35196 | Oh, mother, what did you dream about them? |
35196 | Old acquaintance; friend, I presume? 35196 Only whether-- whether she-- Miss Gwen, I mean-- said anything about riding to- day?" |
35196 | Ormeston Hall? 35196 Perhaps you''d prefer it being boots? |
35196 | Quite turn it upside down-- as your old truckle, eh? |
35196 | Richard--_le braconnier_--you''re thinking of? |
35196 | Rogue''s Ferry? 35196 Shall I read it to you?" |
35196 | Shall I turn the boat back? |
35196 | Sharp fellow? |
35196 | So you think he have a notion o''her, Jack? |
35196 | Somethin''to do wi''the coracle, have it? |
35196 | Specify, Jack? |
35196 | Starve on them, you mean? |
35196 | Sure, then, the Captain han''t been to visit them? |
35196 | Surely he will not be so stupid-- so insane? 35196 That all he said?" |
35196 | That you, Mary? |
35196 | That''s to be on Thursday, ye sayed? |
35196 | The canwyll corph? |
35196 | The heequall? |
35196 | The man''s wife must know all about it? |
35196 | The moon? |
35196 | Then there''s no trouble between you? |
35196 | Then what''s been a scarin''ye, mother? |
35196 | There ha''something happened? |
35196 | They did so? |
35196 | They mean mischief,mutters Wingate;"what''d we best do, Captain? |
35196 | To your great annoyance, no doubt; if it did not make you dreadfully jealous? |
35196 | Too late for what? 35196 True, but does that bear upon our affair?" |
35196 | True, how? 35196 True; and, availing myself of that, I might have been gone long since, as you supposed, but for--""For what?" |
35196 | True; but, then, there may come a fare the morrow, an''what if there do? 35196 Two hours ago they got off, you say?" |
35196 | WHERE''S GWEN? |
35196 | Well, and what after? |
35196 | Well; an''what if''t be? |
35196 | Well; did it strike you as a cry that would come from one falling over the cliff-- by accident or otherwise? |
35196 | Well; what of him? |
35196 | Well; what of it? |
35196 | Well? |
35196 | What are they? 35196 What are they? |
35196 | What article? |
35196 | What be there so odd in that? |
35196 | What can Jack be coming after? 35196 What can all that mean? |
35196 | What can it mean? |
35196 | What could be more ridiculous? |
35196 | What do you mean, Wingate? 35196 What do you think it was?" |
35196 | What fellow? |
35196 | What had he to say about me? |
35196 | What have you done with those addressed to Miss Wynn? |
35196 | What have you heard, mother? |
35196 | What have you? |
35196 | What hour? |
35196 | What is it, Wingate? |
35196 | What is it? |
35196 | What is it? |
35196 | What is it? |
35196 | What is it? |
35196 | What is it? |
35196 | What is it? |
35196 | What is there specially repulsive about him? |
35196 | What makes you suppose she is there? |
35196 | What makes you think I''m lookin''that way? |
35196 | What may it be, your Reverence? |
35196 | What may that be, Father Rogier? |
35196 | What mean you, Gregoire? |
35196 | What more? |
35196 | What more? |
35196 | What news? |
35196 | What other respects? |
35196 | What other thing? |
35196 | What reasons? |
35196 | What say you, gentlemen? |
35196 | What sort of a man? |
35196 | What sort of anodyne? |
35196 | What then? |
35196 | What then? |
35196 | What thing, pway? |
35196 | What thing? |
35196 | What train? |
35196 | What was it? 35196 What''s strangest?" |
35196 | What''s that for? |
35196 | What''s the meaning of all this, Joe? |
35196 | What, Gregoire? |
35196 | What, may I ask? |
35196 | What? |
35196 | What? |
35196 | What? |
35196 | What? |
35196 | What? |
35196 | What? |
35196 | Whatever be the matter wi''ye, Jack? |
35196 | Whatever ha kep''ye, Jack? 35196 When is it to be?" |
35196 | When is this horror to have an end? 35196 When might you want it, your Reverence?" |
35196 | When? |
35196 | Where are they? |
35196 | Where are you going, Gwen? |
35196 | Where be the poor man abidin''now? |
35196 | Where can Gregoire have gone? |
35196 | Where did you find them? |
35196 | Where do they weesh the boat to be took? 35196 Where ha''ye heerd all this, Jack?" |
35196 | Where may that be? |
35196 | Where? 35196 Where?" |
35196 | Where? |
35196 | Where? |
35196 | Where? |
35196 | Which of us do you propose staying here? 35196 Which?" |
35196 | Who can be asking for me? |
35196 | Who could help liking it? |
35196 | Who is Mr Shenstone? |
35196 | Who is that young lady? |
35196 | Who is this other? |
35196 | Who the deuce is he? |
35196 | Who then? |
35196 | Who''s his endawser? 35196 Who? |
35196 | Who? |
35196 | Who? |
35196 | Who? |
35196 | Whose is it, Jack? |
35196 | Why all this emotion about such a_ miserable_? 35196 Why d''y aw say that, Jawge?" |
35196 | Why do you say so, Captain Ryecroft? |
35196 | Why do you think that? 35196 Why must you? |
35196 | Why odd? |
35196 | Why should I? 35196 Why should it?" |
35196 | Why so? |
35196 | Why too well? |
35196 | Why wo n''t it do in the mornin''? |
35196 | Why, Ryecroft, you''re surely joking? |
35196 | Wi''who? |
35196 | Will you take it neat, or mixed wi''a drop o''water? |
35196 | Wish to do what? |
35196 | With safety? |
35196 | Would it greatly surprise you, if to- night your husband did n''t come home to you? |
35196 | Wynn, eh? 35196 Ye ha''been into the chapel buryin''groun''then?" |
35196 | Ye had a big time last night at Llangorren? |
35196 | Ye say ye know him better than ye did? 35196 Ye suspect somebody, then?" |
35196 | Ye''re to see him the morrow, then? |
35196 | Yes; well? |
35196 | Yes? |
35196 | You advise my going over to Llangorren? |
35196 | You can write, Jack-- can''t you? |
35196 | You do n''t think it was Dick and his coracle, then? |
35196 | You have n''t yet told me his name? |
35196 | You mean Mr Murdock? |
35196 | You mean the tongue of_ le braconnier_? |
35196 | You mean--? |
35196 | You said nothing of this at the inquest? |
35196 | You say you''ve brought them along? |
35196 | You see something? |
35196 | You think only_ days_? |
35196 | You think there were others? |
35196 | You''ll come up to the house, and let me introduce you to my aunt? |
35196 | You''re not going to Paris now-- not this night? |
35196 | You''re quite sure of that,_ ma fille_? |
35196 | You''re quite sure there was a boat, Wingate? |
35196 | You''re sure you''ll be able? |
35196 | You''ve been to the Ferry, then? |
35196 | You''ve done something to keep him quiet? |
35196 | Your waterman, sir, Wingate, says he''d like to see you, if convenient? |
35196 | _ Comment_? 35196 _ Le bagage bien arrange_?" |
35196 | _ No_? |
35196 | --were her husband present it would be"Pere;"but she is alone--"Who''s gone away? |
35196 | A gentle tapping at the door tells him the trigger is touched; and, responding to the signal, he calls out--"That you, Jack Wingate? |
35196 | A man guilty of aught illegal-- much more one who has committed a capital crime-- would not be acting thus? |
35196 | A nate thing, and a close shave, was n''t it? |
35196 | Above all, who are the men in it? |
35196 | Above all, why her distraught look, with the sigh accompanying it, as the baronet''s son went galloping out of the gate? |
35196 | After a sip, he resumes speech with the remark:"If I mistake not, you are a poor man, Monsieur Dempsey?" |
35196 | After a time it occurs to him he has been spoken to and asks--"What did you observe, Wingate?" |
35196 | After a time, he again observes:--"You''ve said you do n''t know the ladies we''ve helped out of their little trouble?" |
35196 | After all, what do it matter-- only a bit o''weed?" |
35196 | All I said was, that somebody thinks so; and that is n''t I. Shall I tell you who it is?" |
35196 | All that can be said is, she disappeared on the night of the ball, without telling any one-- no trace left behind-- except--""Except what?" |
35196 | Am I not right? |
35196 | Am I, indeed, to pass the remainder of my days within this dismal cell? |
35196 | An''if I an''t astray, he be the one your Reverence thinks would not be any the worse o''a wettin''?" |
35196 | An''t she a bewty? |
35196 | An''t she?" |
35196 | An''what d''ye want wi''me?" |
35196 | And a pretty sight it is, is n''t it? |
35196 | And d''y''spose I did n''t obsarve them glances exchanged twixt you and the salmon fisher-- sly, but for all that, hot as streaks o''fire? |
35196 | And having gone so, the questions are, why and whither? |
35196 | And how is she to give it, with least pain to him? |
35196 | And if other, what its business? |
35196 | And if suicide, why? |
35196 | And is it not for him they are there; risking liberty-- it may be life? |
35196 | And the cry heard so soon after? |
35196 | And the men in it those whose names he has mentioned? |
35196 | And the quarrel; how did it end? |
35196 | And this very day, what meant Mr Shenstone by that sudden and abrupt departure? |
35196 | And was in the water some time?" |
35196 | And what but the body of Gwendoline Wynn? |
35196 | And what can be keeping_ her_? |
35196 | And who?" |
35196 | And why am I to rejoice?" |
35196 | And why should n''t she, Pere Rogier? |
35196 | And you think she will be able to obtain the information, without in any way compromising herself?" |
35196 | Anyhow, he''ll want her to go down to them grand doin''s at Llangowen Court?" |
35196 | Are they not, Mr Musgrave?" |
35196 | As he is not questioned about these, why should he? |
35196 | As he joins her going out, she asks,_ sotto voce_:--"_ C''est arrange_?" |
35196 | As he stands with eyes glaring upon them, he is again accosted by his inquisitive acquaintance, who asks:"What''s the matter, Jawge? |
35196 | Be''t anybody ha''stoled the things out o''the boat? |
35196 | Bean''t there somethin''amiss?" |
35196 | Beast, bird, or fish?" |
35196 | Being so observant, I wonder if this everybody has also observed how I receive them?" |
35196 | Besides, is he not back there-- come of his own accord-- to confront his accusers, if any there still be? |
35196 | Brought up under the_ regime_ of Louis and trained in the school of Eugenie, why need she fear either social slight or exclusion? |
35196 | But Mahon, drawing them for himself, says searchingly--"Then you have a suspicion there''s been what''s commonly called foul play?" |
35196 | But can it be the priest who is in it? |
35196 | But has she been borne off by force, or went she willingly? |
35196 | But have you any thoughts as to how we should proceed?" |
35196 | But how came I to it? |
35196 | But how could she think that? |
35196 | But how does it corrupt them?" |
35196 | But how have I come into it? |
35196 | But how is it to be hindered?" |
35196 | But how, your Reverence? |
35196 | But possibly better not? |
35196 | But speaking seriously, Ryecroft, as you say you''re on business, may I know its nature?" |
35196 | But the Cognac? |
35196 | But the latter-- is it still alive and flourishing? |
35196 | But the throe passing, she again pursues her soliloquy, now in more conjectural strain:--"Strange that no friend has come after me? |
35196 | But the time? |
35196 | But what am I thinkin''o''? |
35196 | But what do you conclude from its not having been?" |
35196 | But what has that to do with your daughter''s going to the Ferry?" |
35196 | But what is beauty to her with all these adjuncts? |
35196 | But what its width or depth, compared with that other something between? |
35196 | But what led ye to think he ha''been also in the housebreaking line?" |
35196 | But what matters it? |
35196 | But what''s the use of talking of a thing not likely to happen?" |
35196 | But what''s your argument?" |
35196 | But where are they? |
35196 | But where is the other, the false one? |
35196 | But whither?" |
35196 | But who do you suspect?" |
35196 | But who the deuce is the gentleman? |
35196 | But why be you so partic''lar about my goin''out-- this night more''n any other?" |
35196 | But why do ye ask? |
35196 | But why on each and every occasion has he found a gentleman there-- the same every time-- George Shenstone by name? |
35196 | But you surely do n''t suppose I could think of him as a sweetheart? |
35196 | But''s what brought you to Boulogne?" |
35196 | But, maybe, I make too free, asking your business in Boulogne?" |
35196 | By the way, I hear you''re about to have grand doings at the Court-- a ball, and what not?" |
35196 | By the way, have I got my purse with me?" |
35196 | By the way, what have you got in that black jack?" |
35196 | Ca n''t a been anybody else? |
35196 | Ca n''t be a brother? |
35196 | Can I take the liberty of asking him into your house, Mahon?" |
35196 | Can I?" |
35196 | Can it be possible, that what they are looking upon is she who once was Gwendoline Wynn? |
35196 | Can she be English? |
35196 | Can the chasm which angry words have created be bridged over? |
35196 | Can you?" |
35196 | Controlling it, the other asks, with diminished interest, still earnestly:--"What leads you to think that way, Wingate? |
35196 | Did n''t I, your Reverence? |
35196 | Did n''t it strike you so, Nelly?" |
35196 | Did ye hear that, Captain?" |
35196 | Do n''t you think so?" |
35196 | Do you chance to know him?" |
35196 | Do you know where you can borrow such, or hire it?" |
35196 | Do you really mean that, Captain Ryecroft?" |
35196 | Does anyone know who was his boatman?" |
35196 | Does he live at Llangorren? |
35196 | Does n''t it?" |
35196 | Dreaming? |
35196 | Dropped, of course; but under what circumstances? |
35196 | Dropping egg and cup, in stark astonishment, she demands:"What do you mean, Gibbons?" |
35196 | Dublin is his native place; but what would or could he now do there? |
35196 | Even if it were, you seem to forget that her mother, father-- all of them-- must have been cognisant of these facts-- if facts?" |
35196 | Fell from a foot plank, you told me? |
35196 | Flirting while engaged-- what might she do when married? |
35196 | For himself? |
35196 | For its solution he appeals to Ryecroft, asking:--"How about the moon?" |
35196 | For what are either now to him? |
35196 | George Shenstone? |
35196 | Giving the lurcher a kick to quiet the animal, he pulls back the bolt, and draws open the door, as he does so asking,"That you, Father Rogier?" |
35196 | Ha''the thing been cut off, or pulled up?" |
35196 | Ha''ye larned anythin''''bout him o''late?" |
35196 | Has any occurred to you, Gregoire?" |
35196 | Has it indeed carried away Gwen Wynn? |
35196 | Have I hit the nail upon the head?" |
35196 | Have I not played it to perfection?" |
35196 | Have been up to that famous catching place by the Ferry, and are on the way home downward-- to Rock Weir, no doubt? |
35196 | Have you a reason?" |
35196 | Have you any idea of the reason, Nelly?" |
35196 | Have you any idea?" |
35196 | Have you put down the date? |
35196 | Have you?" |
35196 | He does not wait for her to speak, but asks excitedly:--"What''s the matter, mother?" |
35196 | He does so, asking:"But, Miss Gwen; what will your aunt say to it? |
35196 | He is himself interrogated the instant after-- thus:--"You see that shadowed spot under the bank-- by the wall?" |
35196 | He seeks an explanation:--"How is it, Jack, that you, living but a short league above, do n''t know all about these people?" |
35196 | He''s shown the white feather?" |
35196 | He, however, has no doubt of it, muttering to himself--"Wonder whose boat can be on the river this time o''night-- mornin'', I ought to say? |
35196 | Her face in the glass-- what the expression upon it? |
35196 | Her reflection followed by the inquiry, called out--"_ C''est vous, mon mari_?" |
35196 | His name of course, but what the destination? |
35196 | His name?" |
35196 | His reverence is a Frenchman, is he?" |
35196 | Holding out the card Ryecroft says interrogatively--"Is this meant for me, Mr Shenstone?" |
35196 | How are the other twenty being spent? |
35196 | How are they to be occupied? |
35196 | How came he intwoduced at Llangowen?" |
35196 | How can she expect him to have resisted, or that his heart is still whole? |
35196 | How comes it to have been there in the summer- house? |
35196 | How could I expect, or hope, he would? |
35196 | How could he help? |
35196 | How could he otherwise? |
35196 | How could he while his young mistress lived? |
35196 | How could it be otherwise? |
35196 | How could she have lived throughout all that? |
35196 | How could there, since the younger addresses the older as"uncle"; himself in return being styled"nevvy?" |
35196 | How could there? |
35196 | How could there?" |
35196 | How could they otherwise? |
35196 | How could they? |
35196 | How else is her disappearance to be accounted for? |
35196 | How far?" |
35196 | How has she been taking it?" |
35196 | How is it you have n''t gone?" |
35196 | How is the odd time being spent by him? |
35196 | I ask you again-- have you thought of anything, Gregoire?" |
35196 | I han''t heerd her name; what be it?" |
35196 | I intend starting off within the hour, and expecting a letter of some importance, may I ask you to glance over them again?" |
35196 | I may be wronging them all-- friends-- relatives-- even him? |
35196 | I merely wished to know who Mr White Cap is?" |
35196 | I suppose leverets are plentiful just now, and easily caught, since they can no longer retreat to the standing corn?" |
35196 | I suppose she thought I''d gone to my room, and did n''t wish to disturb me? |
35196 | I suppose the train will be starting in a few minutes?" |
35196 | I suppose you''ve heard?" |
35196 | I take it they''re sufficient for reaching either bank of this river, supposing the skiff to get capsized and you in it?" |
35196 | I think, you told me she often accompanies him down to the boat stair, at his departure?" |
35196 | I was only wondering why Miss Gwen-- that is, I am a little astonished-- but-- perhaps you''ll think it impertinent of me to ask another question?" |
35196 | If I mistake not, you can swim like a fish?" |
35196 | If I''ve been rightly informed, Miss Wynn, it belongs to a relative of yours?" |
35196 | If he has gone to the Ferry first, and sets to drinking in the Harp? |
35196 | If questioned about these commodities, what answer is he to make? |
35196 | If you do n''t expect pleasure there, for what should you be in such haste to reach it? |
35196 | In other words, was it suicide, accident, or murder? |
35196 | In what does Mrs Murdock differ from the rest of your Herefordshire fair?" |
35196 | In what way? |
35196 | Indirectly, then? |
35196 | Instead, it but adds to her bewilderment, and she once more exclaims, almost repeating herself:"Am I myself? |
35196 | Instead, with simulated calmness, he says:"Suppose I step out and see whether she be near at hand?" |
35196 | Into France, too; for surely am I there? |
35196 | Is it a dream? |
35196 | Is it a sin? |
35196 | Is it growing? |
35196 | Is it hare?" |
35196 | Is it labelled?" |
35196 | Is it possible-- so early?" |
35196 | Is it possible?" |
35196 | Is it so, my son? |
35196 | Is it to"blight his life''s bloom,"leaving him"an age all winters?" |
35196 | Is it true?" |
35196 | Is n''t that so?" |
35196 | Is that true, Gwendoline? |
35196 | Is the priest jesting? |
35196 | Is there any harm in it?" |
35196 | Is there thought of it in her heart-- for him? |
35196 | It can not be the boat she has seen rowing off above? |
35196 | It is all gone?" |
35196 | It is of him the priest speaks as king:--"Has he signed the will?" |
35196 | It is the lady who speaks first:--"I understand you''ve been but a short while resident in our neighbourhood, Captain Ryecroft?" |
35196 | It''s but natural I should love our beautiful Wye-- I, born on its banks, brought up on them, and, I suppose, likely to--""What?" |
35196 | It''s the voice of a girl? |
35196 | Jack?" |
35196 | Knaw him?" |
35196 | Less from observing his abstraction, than the slow, negligent movements of his knife and fork, the mother asks--"What''s the matter with ye, Jack? |
35196 | Let me see-- was it? |
35196 | Let me see; when will that be?" |
35196 | Madame la Chatelaine oblivious, I apprehend; in the midst of her afternoon nap?" |
35196 | May I ask what it is?" |
35196 | May I ask who is this_ she_ you''re soliloquising about? |
35196 | May I know them?" |
35196 | Maybe,"he continues in tone of confidential suggestion,"there be somebody as you think ought to get a duckin''beside myself?" |
35196 | Might_ he_ be a cousin?" |
35196 | Miss Wynn?" |
35196 | Mr Murdock''s a character, then?" |
35196 | Murdock has himself come easily by it, and why should he not be made as easily to part with it? |
35196 | Need I tell you who sent it, Richard Dempsey?" |
35196 | Nigh on the stroke o''eleven? |
35196 | No enemy, I hope?" |
35196 | Not Monsieur Shenstone, after all?" |
35196 | Not alone, I take it?" |
35196 | Not much in the manner, I should say; but altogether the contrary,"she laughs, adding--"And how do you like our Wye?" |
35196 | Not on the sick list, I hope?" |
35196 | Not receiving immediate answer, Ellen again asks--"Is there any danger you fear?" |
35196 | Not the Captain?" |
35196 | Nothing to surprise him that? |
35196 | Now, Captain, what do ye think o''the whole thing?" |
35196 | Now, Jack, whose boat could that be if it wa''nt your''n?" |
35196 | Now, Monsieur, do you comprehend me?" |
35196 | Odd succession of events, is it not?" |
35196 | Of course you''ll stay, gentlemen? |
35196 | Oh, no; I noticed nothin''o''all that, not I? |
35196 | Only with my life? |
35196 | Only, who these redemptionists are that take such interest in my spiritual welfare, and how I have come to be here, surely I may know?" |
35196 | Or am I mad? |
35196 | Or am I to wait for''em here?" |
35196 | Or have my senses indeed forsaken me?" |
35196 | Or in that face, dark and disfigured, who could recognise the once radiant countenance of Llangorren''s young heiress? |
35196 | Or is there yet a chance of reconciliation? |
35196 | Or would ye rather be took on up to the town? |
35196 | Or, is it insanity?" |
35196 | Or, stepping off, does he spurn the boat with angry heel, as in angry speech he has done her whose name it bears? |
35196 | Out at this hour?" |
35196 | Perhaps in Paris? |
35196 | Perhaps you''ll extend it, and favour me with the lady''s name? |
35196 | Perhaps, better it were so? |
35196 | Rang no bell? |
35196 | Ryecroft smiles, further interrogating:--"What have you heard of her?" |
35196 | S''pose we gie''em a capsize?" |
35196 | S''pose we slide after, and see where she hangs out?" |
35196 | Sadness, or joy? |
35196 | Saying which, she slips several shillings into his hand, adding, as she notes the effect,--"Do you think it sufficiently heavy? |
35196 | Shall I call him in?" |
35196 | Shall I run down to the boat- dock and see?" |
35196 | Shall we, Mr Musgrave?" |
35196 | She knows he has conceived some scheme to disembarrass her of a husband, she no longer care? |
35196 | She knows how Shenstone suffers-- how could she help knowing? |
35196 | She mayent like you young ladies to go rowin''by yourselves? |
35196 | She''s at home, is n''t she?" |
35196 | Should ye like take a drop o''somethin''''fores you lie down?" |
35196 | Sidling up to the girl, he asks in a tone which tells of lovers_ en rapport_, mutually, unmistakably--"When, Mary?" |
35196 | So shall I; the blackest in all the convent''s wardrobe if they wish it-- aye, crape if they insist on it? |
35196 | So, my boy, you perceive the necessity of our acting with caution in this business, whatever trouble or time it may take-- do n''t you?" |
35196 | Some business?" |
35196 | Some of your old English_ bonnes amies_, I suppose?" |
35196 | Somethin''crooked''s come between''em at the ball-- bit o''jealousy, maybe? |
35196 | Something happened between you, eh?" |
35196 | Something wrong?" |
35196 | Soon again he resumes his conjectured soliloquy:--"''Tan''t possible she ha''been to the Ferry, an''goed back again? |
35196 | Suppose I write a note requesting his presence, with explanations?" |
35196 | Suppose hers should some day go to the bottom she being in it?" |
35196 | Suppose we do?" |
35196 | Surely I''d have heard it? |
35196 | Surely it can not be? |
35196 | Surely it can not come from any of the sisters? |
35196 | Surely our oaks, elms, and poplars can not be compared with the tall palms and graceful tree ferns of the tropics?" |
35196 | Surely she has been found?" |
35196 | Surely the Captain is not going to call on Mr Lewin Murdock-- in amicable intercourse? |
35196 | Surely you arn''t goin''out again the night?" |
35196 | Surely, not a pleasure excursion, at such an unreasonable hour-- night just drawing down? |
35196 | Taking her seat, she asks:"Where''s Gwen?" |
35196 | Tell me something of its nature?" |
35196 | Tell me why I am here?" |
35196 | That appears too early for the after event? |
35196 | The balin''pan, or that bit o''cushion in the stern?" |
35196 | The boat coming back? |
35196 | The first is--"You''re not afraid of water, are you, Dick?" |
35196 | The longer before fishing the thing up, the better it will be for our purposes: you comprehend?" |
35196 | The which, my amiable Joseph, you''ll not do-- I''m sure you will not?" |
35196 | Then adding, as he observes a young man leap down from the box where he has had seat beside the driver,"Part of your belongings, is n''t he?" |
35196 | Then succeeds inquiry as to how the death has been brought about; whether it be a case of suicide or assassination? |
35196 | Then why be ye looking so black?" |
35196 | There han''t been nobody to the house-- has there?" |
35196 | They hold their_ tete- a- tete_ there at times; do they?" |
35196 | They may have ate it up?" |
35196 | They may not know where I am? |
35196 | To the first,` How?'' |
35196 | True there will be four against two; but what of it? |
35196 | True, your Wye is subject to sudden floods; might it have ought to do with them?" |
35196 | Upon what do you base them?" |
35196 | WHAT DOES HE WANT? |
35196 | Waked for two days, as I understood you; then laid in her grave? |
35196 | Was n''t it a little strange?" |
35196 | Was n''t it,_ cherie_?" |
35196 | Was the girl good looking?" |
35196 | Well, what''d I best do? |
35196 | What answer did you gie to the man?" |
35196 | What are your own thoughts about it, Jack?" |
35196 | What are your reasons for doubting it?" |
35196 | What boat could have been there but his own? |
35196 | What can I remember? |
35196 | What can he be doing down there? |
35196 | What care I?" |
35196 | What could it mean?" |
35196 | What did the sarvint say?" |
35196 | What difference whether he find the grave of his griefs in Paris or Boulogne-- if find it he can? |
35196 | What do I care?" |
35196 | What do you know of_ him_?" |
35196 | What for could have been the angry words? |
35196 | What ha''become o''they?" |
35196 | What have you done with them?" |
35196 | What have you got to reward me for it?" |
35196 | What if there be some one on the road, or the river''s bank, and be seen in the act of capsizing his own boat? |
35196 | What is it? |
35196 | What is it?" |
35196 | What is such a man doing in Herefordshire? |
35196 | What is this barometer you seem to place such confidence in? |
35196 | What is to compare with that to come? |
35196 | What makes ye think he a''been a forger?" |
35196 | What man in love, profoundly, passionately as he, could believe his last chance eliminated; or have his ultimate hope extinguished? |
35196 | What matter? |
35196 | What mean you?" |
35196 | What say you, Nell?" |
35196 | What say you, Wingate?" |
35196 | What should be my first pretence? |
35196 | What should we do to''em, Captain?" |
35196 | What sort of fellow is he?" |
35196 | What sort of place is it? |
35196 | What sort of sound?" |
35196 | What step do you wish me to take, first?" |
35196 | What then? |
35196 | What then? |
35196 | What was it, pray?" |
35196 | What will_ they_ do?--and think? |
35196 | What would ye think o''my predecessor here bein''a burglar as well as smasher?" |
35196 | What''s cheerin''him? |
35196 | What''s that? |
35196 | What''s the hour now? |
35196 | What''s your idea, Mahon?" |
35196 | What, after all, if his suspicions prove groundless, and it turn out that Captain Ryecroft is entirely innocent? |
35196 | What, in Protestant England? |
35196 | What_ has_ occurred there?" |
35196 | What_ jeu d''esprit_ has he been perpetrating?" |
35196 | When I left the Ferry he was in the Welsh Harp, as I was told, tossing sovereigns upon its bar counter,` Heads and tails, who wins?'' |
35196 | When seated at the table, the Major asks--"What on earth has delayed you, Vivian? |
35196 | When will it be over?" |
35196 | When, and where?" |
35196 | When? |
35196 | Whence all this plenty, within walls where of late and for so long, has been such scarcity? |
35196 | Where do you suppose, mother?" |
35196 | Where is he who has both to be relied upon? |
35196 | Where is the beautiful woman, by both beloved, fondly, passionately? |
35196 | Where is the man who would not feel flattered, gratified, to be the shrine of such sacrifice, and from such a worshipper? |
35196 | Where is the man who would not rather know his sweetheart dead than see her in the arms of a rival? |
35196 | Where, and how, is one to be had? |
35196 | Where?" |
35196 | Where?" |
35196 | Where?" |
35196 | Whether in the country, or in a town among houses? |
35196 | Which did she go by-- the path or the lane? |
35196 | Which is she to take? |
35196 | Which quarter is she in? |
35196 | Which way did you come, Father Rogier-- the path or the lane?" |
35196 | Whither then? |
35196 | Who Pere?" |
35196 | Who could fail to observe that pretty hand play, when you two were twining the ivy around the altar- rail? |
35196 | Who could''a carried it across the river-- that night especial, wi''a flood lippin''full up to the banks? |
35196 | Who dreams of that? |
35196 | Who else could it be? |
35196 | Who has brought me? |
35196 | Who is to do this? |
35196 | Who knows but that in a fit of drunken bravado he may stake the whole estate on a single turn of cards or cast of dice? |
35196 | Who says I do?" |
35196 | Who so circumstanced ever does? |
35196 | Who would n''t with such laws-- unrighteous-- oppressive to the poor? |
35196 | Who, then, is the owner of the brooch, bracelets, and other bijouterie? |
35196 | Who,_ Pere_? |
35196 | Who-- what is he?" |
35196 | Who?" |
35196 | Why all this? |
35196 | Why did I ever leave you?" |
35196 | Why did he not start earlier? |
35196 | Why do you wish that?" |
35196 | Why examining those things, he already knows all about, as she herself? |
35196 | Why has it stopped there? |
35196 | Why is he not here? |
35196 | Why is it staying? |
35196 | Why not, Miss Wynn?" |
35196 | Why not?" |
35196 | Why should I not dissemble? |
35196 | Why should I?" |
35196 | Why should I?" |
35196 | Why should it? |
35196 | Why should she have gone outside? |
35196 | Why should that attract the attention of the young Herefordshire squire, causing him to start, as it first catches his eye? |
35196 | Why, may I ask? |
35196 | Why? |
35196 | Will ye let me wake her up? |
35196 | Will your Reverence enlighten me?" |
35196 | Within a mile of their own home, and still within the boundary of the Llangorren land, how could they think of danger such as is threatening? |
35196 | Wonder why she did n''t wake me up? |
35196 | Would n''t be a tourist party-- starting off so early? |
35196 | Would you desire that?" |
35196 | Wyquoft-- Wyquoft, you say?" |
35196 | Ye remember my tellin''you, mother?" |
35196 | Ye see what comes o''sich as they humbuggin''about in a boat?" |
35196 | Ye understand me, mother?" |
35196 | Ye''ll let me row you up the river-- leastways for a couple o''miles further? |
35196 | Ye''ll remember the night we come up from the ball, my tellin''ye I had an engagement the next day to take the young Powells down the river?" |
35196 | Yet, would you believe it, Nelly, notwithstanding all, I sometimes have a strange fear upon me?" |
35196 | You comprehend?" |
35196 | You comprehend?" |
35196 | You do n''t expect the Father, our only visitor, to- night? |
35196 | You have it in the house, I hope?" |
35196 | You have learnt something since?" |
35196 | You know his name?" |
35196 | You know the place-- you know the ring too?" |
35196 | You mean Captain Ryecroft?" |
35196 | You really admire it?" |
35196 | You remember my sayin''so, Captain; and that I took it to be some o''the sarvint girls shoutin''up there?" |
35196 | You see that big poplar standing on the bank there?" |
35196 | You see that building below?" |
35196 | You see that?" |
35196 | You will, wo n''t you?" |
35196 | You''ll stand by me, Mahon?" |
35196 | You''ll stay to dinner with us, Father Rogier?" |
35196 | You''ll stay? |
35196 | You''re her maid-- you undressed her?" |
35196 | _ Comprenez- vous, cherie_?" |
35196 | an''t he, Jack?" |
35196 | are you sure of that, Father Rogier?" |
35196 | cry both gentlemen in a breath, seeming alike vexed by the intelligence, Shenstone mechanically interrogating:"On the river?" |
35196 | ejaculated the Major, struck by the words, and their despondent tone,"what''s this, old fellow? |
35196 | groans the young girl in despair, flinging herself along the pallet, and for the third time interrogating,"am I myself, and dreaming? |
35196 | he repeats with a look of blank astonishment--"What the deuce does it mean?" |
35196 | he says, going on in conjectural chain;"and that French priest-- he probably the instigator of it? |
35196 | possibly had a hand in the deed itself? |
35196 | she asks, soon as he has mounted up to her,"_ Quelque chose a tort_?" |
35196 | she exclaims involuntarily, adding, in a timid whisper,"Was it, Gregoire?" |
35196 | she exclaims, as if pricked by a pin,"Mademoiselle to be married?" |
35196 | she exclaims, in feigned astonishment,"ye beant a comin''from the Ferry that way?" |
35196 | she exclaims,"what are we to do? |
35196 | the Morgans?" |
35196 | this time you_ have_ an errand? |
35196 | vite- vite_?" |
35196 | what d''ye mean?" |
35196 | what do it mean?" |
35196 | what is to become of me? |
35196 | what shall we do?" |
35196 | what way?" |
35196 | what''s going on at Llangorren?" |
35196 | where am I to find this means?" |
35196 | where?" |
35196 | who can tell? |
35196 | why did I not know it before?" |
35196 | would n''t you like to be sellin''her a pair of kids-- Jouvin''s best-- helpin''her draw them on, eh?" |
35196 | yonder''s a very different sort of pedestrian approaching it? |
35196 | you know it?" |
35196 | you''ll break your journey here, and stay a few days with me? |
730 | Have you? |
730 | ''"Somebody,"I says,"is forcing of a door, or window; what''s to be done? |
730 | ''''Cause it is n''t on the rec- ord, is it?'' |
730 | ''A fear of what?'' |
730 | ''A little fancy work?'' |
730 | ''A little of the wine?'' |
730 | ''A word from me would have done it; would n''t it, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''About his losses, maybe; or the little retirement in the country that he''s just left, eh? |
730 | ''About the crib at Chertsey, Bill?'' |
730 | ''Ah, to be sure,''said the Jew;''when is it to be done, Bill?'' |
730 | ''Ah, what?'' |
730 | ''Ai n''t you afraid of it, sir? |
730 | ''Am I to go with you?'' |
730 | ''Am I, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''Am I?'' |
730 | ''An old woman?'' |
730 | ''An''t yer fond of oysters?'' |
730 | ''And Bet?'' |
730 | ''And Brittles has been gone upwards of an hour, has he?'' |
730 | ''And Mr. Crackit is a heavy swell; an''t he, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''And about what I was saying, my dear?'' |
730 | ''And he_ will_ be a sweep, will he?'' |
730 | ''And his master, too, I think you said, Noah?'' |
730 | ''And if it is not?'' |
730 | ''And it is a creditable thing to have his acquaintance; an''t it, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''And make your fortun''out of hand?'' |
730 | ''And no news of Barney?'' |
730 | ''And now you do see me,''said Monks, rising boldly,''what then? |
730 | ''And the windows too?'' |
730 | ''And this is all?'' |
730 | ''And this man that''s to be his master-- you, sir-- you''ll treat him well, and feed him, and do all that sort of thing, will you?'' |
730 | ''And what about the other fortnight?'' |
730 | ''And what are_ you_, boy?'' |
730 | ''And what be that stoof? |
730 | ''And what good would that do?'' |
730 | ''And what have you got, my dear?'' |
730 | ''And what may that be?'' |
730 | ''And what occurred then?'' |
730 | ''And what the devil''s a put- up thing?'' |
730 | ''And what''s the prerogative of a woman, in the name of Goodness?'' |
730 | ''And when are you going to hear a full, true, and particular account of the life and adventures of Oliver Twist?'' |
730 | ''And which is Oliver?'' |
730 | ''And who can wonder if it be so, mother?'' |
730 | ''And you ARE a beadle, are you not?'' |
730 | ''And your reasons, Rose,''he said, at length, in a low voice;''your reasons for this decision?'' |
730 | ''And, translating the word yokel for the benefit of the ladies, I apprehend your meaning to be, that this attempt was not made by a countryman?'' |
730 | ''And-- and-- good?'' |
730 | ''Any news?'' |
730 | ''Anybody here?'' |
730 | ''Anything new up in town, Ben?'' |
730 | ''Appears against the boy, does he?'' |
730 | ''Are there any witnesses?'' |
730 | ''Are you fond of pictures, dear?'' |
730 | ''Are you going to Halliford?'' |
730 | ''Are you going to sit snoring there, all day?'' |
730 | ''Are you going up to the Cripples, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''Are you going?'' |
730 | ''Are you mad enough to leave this house? |
730 | ''Are you sure?'' |
730 | ''Are you the party that''s been robbed, sir?'' |
730 | ''At the Cripples?'' |
730 | ''Ay?'' |
730 | ''Aye?'' |
730 | ''Bet will go; wo n''t you, my dear?'' |
730 | ''But I did n''t blab it; did I, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''But do n''t you think out- of- door relief a very bad thing, any way, Mr. Bumble? |
730 | ''But do you mean to say, my dear,''remonstrated the Jew,''that the women ca n''t be got over?'' |
730 | ''But what can I do?'' |
730 | ''But what do you want with me?'' |
730 | ''But what is this?--of whom do you speak?'' |
730 | ''But what''s the consequence; what''s the ungrateful behaviour of these rebels, sir? |
730 | ''But where can I find you again when it is necessary?'' |
730 | ''But why,''said the young man,''why run the chance of that occurring which so nearly happened? |
730 | ''But wo n''t you take one look at him, first, miss?'' |
730 | ''But wot?'' |
730 | ''By the bye,''said Mr. Bumble,''you do n''t know anybody who wants a boy, do you? |
730 | ''By what authority am I kidnapped in the street, and brought here by these dogs?'' |
730 | ''By whom?'' |
730 | ''Ca n''t you look at the gentleman, you obstinate boy?'' |
730 | ''Can I help you? |
730 | ''Come in, d''ye hear?'' |
730 | ''Could n''t you hear the noise?'' |
730 | ''Could you give my boy and me a lift as far as there?'' |
730 | ''Crape, keys, centre- bits, darkies-- nothing forgotten?'' |
730 | ''D''ye hear, Work''us?'' |
730 | ''Damn that''ere bag,''said the guard;''are you gone to sleep in there?'' |
730 | ''Did I keep it?'' |
730 | ''Did he awake before you returned?'' |
730 | ''Did he come quiet?'' |
730 | ''Did she drink the hot wine the doctor said she was to have?'' |
730 | ''Did she say any more, Anny dear, while I was gone?'' |
730 | ''Did you ever know a man come out to do either, in a chariot and pair, you ridiculous old vampire?'' |
730 | ''Did you know that before, Oliver?'' |
730 | ''Did you mind me, dear?'' |
730 | ''Did you redress yourself to me, my man?'' |
730 | ''Did you see any of these pretty things, my dear?'' |
730 | ''Did you want a coffin, sir?'' |
730 | ''Did your worship speak to me?'' |
730 | ''Do n''t know?'' |
730 | ''Do n''t they holler out a good deal, and scratch sometimes?'' |
730 | ''Do n''t you-- don''t you know me?'' |
730 | ''Do n''t you?'' |
730 | ''Do what?'' |
730 | ''Do you hear his worship ask if you''ve anything to say?'' |
730 | ''Do you hear me call? |
730 | ''Do you hear me, some of you? |
730 | ''Do you hear me?'' |
730 | ''Do you hear the gentleman, Charlotte?'' |
730 | ''Do you hear?'' |
730 | ''Do you hear?'' |
730 | ''Do you know this here voice, Oliver?'' |
730 | ''Do you live in London?'' |
730 | ''Do you mean to say anything, you young shaver?'' |
730 | ''Do you mean to state what your complaint against this boy is, man, or do you not? |
730 | ''Do you mean to tell me, Bill,''said the Jew: softening as the other grew heated:''that neither of the two men in the house can be got over?'' |
730 | ''Do you see anything-- hear anything-- feel anything-- eh?'' |
730 | ''Do you see her now?'' |
730 | ''Do you see that old cove at the book- stall?'' |
730 | ''Do you still suppose that I am a boy ignorant of my own mind, and mistaking the impulses of my own soul?'' |
730 | ''Do you think I do n''t know what''s good for you? |
730 | ''Do you want to be grabbed, stupid?'' |
730 | ''Even if it had been the right place, and the right fellows had been there, what could I have done, single- handed? |
730 | ''Fagin,''said Mr. Brownlow;''what of him?'' |
730 | ''Fagin,''said Sikes, abruptly breaking the stillness that prevailed;''is it worth fifty shiners extra, if it''s safely done from the outside?'' |
730 | ''First and foremost, Faguey,''said the housebreaker,''how''s Bill?'' |
730 | ''Following me?'' |
730 | ''For business?'' |
730 | ''For what purpose?'' |
730 | ''For what?'' |
730 | ''From the country, I see, sir?'' |
730 | ''Go on, go on-- yes-- what of it? |
730 | ''Going to London?'' |
730 | ''Got any lodgings?'' |
730 | ''Hallo, what''s that?'' |
730 | ''Halloa?'' |
730 | ''Hard- hearted, ma''am?'' |
730 | ''Hard?'' |
730 | ''Harry? |
730 | ''Has anything happened?'' |
730 | ''Has he any parents?'' |
730 | ''Has he, ma''am?'' |
730 | ''Has his housekeeper gone too?'' |
730 | ''Has it long gone the half- hour?'' |
730 | ''Has nobody been, Toby?'' |
730 | ''Has the boy ever been here before?'' |
730 | ''Has this man been a- drinking, sir?'' |
730 | ''Have I the lady''s promise for that?'' |
730 | ''Have n''t you done it, with other boys, scores of times? |
730 | ''Have they done work, sir?'' |
730 | ''Have you anything to ask this witness, boy?'' |
730 | ''Have you anything to say at all?'' |
730 | ''Have you given him any nourishment, Bedwin? |
730 | ''Have you got anything in my line to- night?'' |
730 | ''Have you made up your mind?'' |
730 | ''Have you nothing else to ask him, sir?'' |
730 | ''Have you nothing to say to me?'' |
730 | ''Have you shot anything particular, lately, Giles?'' |
730 | ''He is a nice- looking boy, is he not?'' |
730 | ''He is not in danger, I hope?'' |
730 | ''He knows what I mean, Nancy; do n''t he?'' |
730 | ''He''ll come to be scragged, wo n''t he?'' |
730 | ''Hold your tongue, will you?'' |
730 | ''Honour, eh?'' |
730 | ''How are you, Faguey?'' |
730 | ''How are you, boy?'' |
730 | ''How came that dog here?'' |
730 | ''How can I find her?'' |
730 | ''How dare you mention such a thing, sir? |
730 | ''How dare you say this of me?'' |
730 | ''How dare you urge me to it, young man?'' |
730 | ''How do yer see that?'' |
730 | ''How do you do, sir? |
730 | ''How do you feel to- night, Bill?'' |
730 | ''How do you propose to deal with the case, sir?'' |
730 | ''How is the patient to- night, sir?'' |
730 | ''How old are yer?'' |
730 | ''How should I know, my dear?'' |
730 | ''How should I know?'' |
730 | ''How should you?'' |
730 | ''How then?'' |
730 | ''How''s this?'' |
730 | ''How,''thought Fagin, as he crept homeward,''can I increase my influence with her? |
730 | ''How?'' |
730 | ''I ask you again,''thundered the doctor,''are you, on your solemn oaths, able to identify that boy?'' |
730 | ''I beg your pardon, sir,''said Oliver at length: seeing that no other visitor made his appearance;''did you knock?'' |
730 | ''I ca n''t keep her alive, can I?'' |
730 | ''I could have told you that,''rejoined Mr. Brownlow;''but put on your glasses, and see if you ca n''t find out what you were wanted for, will you?'' |
730 | ''I do n''t know what it is; I ca n''t describe it; but I feel--''''Not ill, my love?'' |
730 | ''I do not seek to know where these dreadful people live, but where will you be walking or passing at any settled period from this time?'' |
730 | ''I have seen you before, I think?'' |
730 | ''I hope the gentleman will understand that it is n''t my fault, sir?'' |
730 | ''I hope you are not angry with me, sir?'' |
730 | ''I hope,''said Oliver, when Mrs. Maylie returned,''that nothing is the matter? |
730 | ''I might have got clear off, if I''d split upon her; might n''t I, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''I shall see you again to- night?'' |
730 | ''I suppose he''d better not wear his best clothes tomorrow, Fagin, had he?'' |
730 | ''I suppose yer the new boy, ai n''t yer?'' |
730 | ''I suppose you do n''t even know what a prig is?'' |
730 | ''I suppose you want some place to sleep in to- night, do n''t you?'' |
730 | ''I suppose,''said the Jew, fixing his eyes on Oliver,''you want to know what you''re going to Bill''s for--- eh, my dear?'' |
730 | ''I think she''s got a touch of that fever in her blood yet, and it wo n''t come out-- eh?'' |
730 | ''I''m an Englishman, ai n''t I?'' |
730 | ''If you flung a man''s body down there, where would it be to- morrow morning?'' |
730 | ''If you was to like my friend, could you do better than join him?'' |
730 | ''In life?'' |
730 | ''In what way?'' |
730 | ''Is Mr. Brownlow at home?'' |
730 | ''Is Oliver a- bed? |
730 | ''Is all paid, Becky?'' |
730 | ''Is any one up?'' |
730 | ''Is anybody here, Barney?'' |
730 | ''Is he coming up?'' |
730 | ''Is he to be kidnapped to the other ken, Nancy says?'' |
730 | ''Is is a bargain?'' |
730 | ''Is it a bargain?'' |
730 | ''Is it for Chertsey, too, ma''am?'' |
730 | ''Is it gone?'' |
730 | ''Is it much farther?'' |
730 | ''Is it paid for?'' |
730 | ''Is it possible,''cried Rose,''that for such a man as this, you can resign every future hope, and the certainty of immediate rescue? |
730 | ''Is it you, Giles?'' |
730 | ''Is n''t that boy no better?'' |
730 | ''Is n''t there any help for it?'' |
730 | ''Is that the man?'' |
730 | ''Is that the woman?'' |
730 | ''Is that what you expected to get from me?'' |
730 | ''Is that your boy?'' |
730 | ''Is the downstairs door fast?'' |
730 | ''Is the old''un here?'' |
730 | ''Is the young gentleman to come too, sir?'' |
730 | ''Is there a little boy here?'' |
730 | ''Is there no help wanted, but yours and Toby''s?'' |
730 | ''Is there--''demanded Monks with a faltering tongue,--''is there-- no middle course?'' |
730 | ''Is this the Three Cripples?'' |
730 | ''Is-- is that a likeness, ma''am?'' |
730 | ''It is, is it, sir?'' |
730 | ''It is, that I may endeavour to deserve you; it is, dear Rose?'' |
730 | ''It make you nervous, Bill,--reminds you of being nabbed, does it?'' |
730 | ''It''s a the--; you''re one, are you not?'' |
730 | ''It''s all arranged about bringing off the swag, is it?'' |
730 | ''It''s naughty, ai n''t it, Oliver?'' |
730 | ''Just send somebody out to relieve my mate, will you, young man?'' |
730 | ''Just to have the pleasure of knowing them, if they''re respectable people, eh? |
730 | ''Keep quiet, ca n''t you?'' |
730 | ''Known what?'' |
730 | ''Lend a hand to the girl, ca n''t you?'' |
730 | ''Like what, sir, eh?'' |
730 | ''Lined?'' |
730 | ''Man or woman, pray, sir?'' |
730 | ''Master Oliver, my dear, you remember the blessed gentleman in the white waistcoat? |
730 | ''May I accompany you?'' |
730 | ''Money?'' |
730 | ''Monks would never learn how you knew what you do?'' |
730 | ''Monks, do you mean?'' |
730 | ''My dear love,''said the elder lady, as she folded the weeping girl to her bosom,''do you think I would harm a hair of his head?'' |
730 | ''Nancy, my dear,''said the Jew in a soothing manner,''what do YOU say?'' |
730 | ''Never mind the year,''said the impatient auditor;''what about her?'' |
730 | ''No, shall he though?'' |
730 | ''Nobody?'' |
730 | ''Nolly, dear?'' |
730 | ''Nor business?'' |
730 | ''Nor catching any thieves, nor identifying any house- breakers?'' |
730 | ''Nor heard anything about him?'' |
730 | ''Nor sold him anything, perhaps?'' |
730 | ''Not by flash Toby Crackit?'' |
730 | ''Not one little peep, miss?'' |
730 | ''Not run away; he has n''t run away, has he, Noah?'' |
730 | ''Nothing bad, I hope?'' |
730 | ''Nothing more?'' |
730 | ''Now stop quietly where you are, will you?'' |
730 | ''Now then, where are the witnesses?'' |
730 | ''Now, first: do you know wot this is?'' |
730 | ''Now, man, what have you got to say?'' |
730 | ''Now, my boy, which house is it?'' |
730 | ''Now, what do you think?'' |
730 | ''Now, what is this, about this here boy that the servants are a- talking on?'' |
730 | ''Now, you are a nice young fellow, ai n''t you?'' |
730 | ''Now,''said Fang,''what''s the charge against this boy? |
730 | ''Number and date taken, I suppose? |
730 | ''Of course the lady knows that, do n''t she?'' |
730 | ''Of what use, then, is the communication you have made?'' |
730 | ''Officer, what''s his name?'' |
730 | ''Officers, do you hear? |
730 | ''Oh, he wo n''t speak out, wo n''t he?'' |
730 | ''Oh, is this the boy?'' |
730 | ''Oh, that book, eh?'' |
730 | ''Oh, you have n''t, have n''t you?'' |
730 | ''Oliver, my child,''said Mrs. Maylie,''where have you been, and why do you look so sad? |
730 | ''Oliver, what''s the news? |
730 | ''Oliver,''said Mr. Brownlow;''Oliver what? |
730 | ''Open the door, will yer?'' |
730 | ''Pay attention to the reply, constable, will you?'' |
730 | ''Perhaps I was,''rejoined Tom, looking round;''and if I was, what''s to laugh at, in that; eh, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''Perhaps_ you_ do n''t?'' |
730 | ''Plainly?'' |
730 | ''Proud, eh?'' |
730 | ''Regarding this boy, my dear?'' |
730 | ''Regular town- maders?'' |
730 | ''Set your hand to a statement of truth and facts, and repeat it before witnesses?'' |
730 | ''Shall I go downstairs, sir?'' |
730 | ''Shall I go?'' |
730 | ''Shall I shut the door, ma''am?'' |
730 | ''Shall it go, ma''am?'' |
730 | ''She has formed no other attachment?'' |
730 | ''She sold it,''cried Monks, with desperate eagerness;''did she sell it? |
730 | ''She took it, did she?'' |
730 | ''She''s kept tolerably well under, ai n''t she?'' |
730 | ''Should I have to hand over?'' |
730 | ''Show us the tap, and give us a bit of cold meat and a drop of beer while yer inquiring, will yer?'' |
730 | ''Sikes is not, I suppose?'' |
730 | ''So you wanted to get away, my dear, did you?'' |
730 | ''So you wo n''t let me have him, gen''l''men?'' |
730 | ''So, you''re going on to Lower Halliford, are you?'' |
730 | ''Stole what, for God''s sake?'' |
730 | ''Strange?'' |
730 | ''Suppose he did all this, what then?'' |
730 | ''Surely there is no danger of anything so dreadful?'' |
730 | ''Sweet? |
730 | ''Take a seat, will you?'' |
730 | ''Take it up for her, Joe; ca n''t you?'' |
730 | ''Tell me why?'' |
730 | ''Tell yer what?'' |
730 | ''Tell your governor that Blathers and Duff is here, will you?'' |
730 | ''That was something in this way, warn''t it?'' |
730 | ''That''s a pleasant life, is n''t it? |
730 | ''That''s the boy, is it?'' |
730 | ''The book- stall keeper, sir?'' |
730 | ''The boy''s name?'' |
730 | ''The cutting away when there''s anything wrong, and the eating all the wittles when there''s everything right; is that his branch?'' |
730 | ''The first is, what may the communication be worth?'' |
730 | ''The first question is, of what nature was her communication?'' |
730 | ''The gold I stole was--''''Yes, yes-- what?'' |
730 | ''The jury brought it in,"Died from exposure to the cold, and want of the common necessaries of life,"did n''t they?'' |
730 | ''The little word?'' |
730 | ''The locket and ring?'' |
730 | ''The lying- in room, I suppose?'' |
730 | ''The murderer?'' |
730 | ''The old gentleman over the way?'' |
730 | ''The one little, little, little word, my blessed Corney?'' |
730 | ''The other question?'' |
730 | ''The panels-- are they strong?'' |
730 | ''The persuaders?'' |
730 | ''The prosecutor was reading, was he?'' |
730 | ''The room- door is open, is it?'' |
730 | ''The what?'' |
730 | ''Then keep quiet, will you?'' |
730 | ''Then what do you talk of?'' |
730 | ''Then what the devil is to be done?'' |
730 | ''Then why do n''t you send this new cove?'' |
730 | ''Then why inflict it on yourself?'' |
730 | ''Then you return my love?'' |
730 | ''There are a good many books, are there not, my boy?'' |
730 | ''They took this way?'' |
730 | ''Think it''s the same boy, Stupid- head?'' |
730 | ''Think so?'' |
730 | ''Think what, now?'' |
730 | ''This is all about the robbery, is it?'' |
730 | ''This is all, is it?'' |
730 | ''This is hardly fair, Bill; hardly fair, is it, Nancy?'' |
730 | ''This is the woman, is it?'' |
730 | ''This mystery must be investigated, or how will its disclosure to me, benefit Oliver, whom you are anxious to serve?'' |
730 | ''Thought it was what boy?'' |
730 | ''To London Bridge?'' |
730 | ''To what use can I turn this communication without you? |
730 | ''To whom?'' |
730 | ''To yourself?'' |
730 | ''To-- to-- stop there, sir?'' |
730 | ''Toby,''said the boy falling back, as Sikes turned his eyes towards him,''why did n''t you tell me this, downstairs?'' |
730 | ''Upon your what?'' |
730 | ''Very particular?'' |
730 | ''Vice,''said the surgeon, replacing the curtain,''takes up her abode in many temples; and who can say that a fair outside shell not enshrine her?'' |
730 | ''Wanted to get assistance; called for the police; did you?'' |
730 | ''Was it, sir?'' |
730 | ''Was there no one by?'' |
730 | ''We must put it to the vote,''replied Mr. Brownlow,''who may he be?'' |
730 | ''Well, I''ve heerd that complaint of it, once or twice before,''replied the trader;''but it soon cools down again; do n''t you find it so?'' |
730 | ''Well, Oliver,''said Sowerberry, as they walked home,''how do you like it?'' |
730 | ''Well, and what if he did, you little ungrateful wretch?'' |
730 | ''Well, but I shall know him, I hope; do n''t yer think so?'' |
730 | ''Well, they were separated,''said Monks,''and what of that?'' |
730 | ''Well, what DO you know of him?'' |
730 | ''Well, what have you got to say to me?'' |
730 | ''Well, what''s that to me?'' |
730 | ''Well,''said the Jew, glancing slyly at Oliver, and addressing himself to the Dodger,''I hope you''ve been at work this morning, my dears?'' |
730 | ''Well,''said the old gentleman,''I suppose he''s fond of chimney- sweeping?'' |
730 | ''Well; and what''s come of it?'' |
730 | ''Well? |
730 | ''Well?'' |
730 | ''Were you looking for me,''he said,''when you peered in at the window?'' |
730 | ''What a pity it is, a number of''em should ever make you feel uncomfortable; is n''t it, Charlotte?'' |
730 | ''What about him?'' |
730 | ''What about the other fortnight that you''ve left me lying here, like a sick rat in his hole?'' |
730 | ''What advantage would it be to me to be anything else?'' |
730 | ''What am I to do?'' |
730 | ''What answer''s that?'' |
730 | ''What are the circumstances?'' |
730 | ''What are you crying for?'' |
730 | ''What are you up to? |
730 | ''What business is it of yours?'' |
730 | ''What business is it of yours?'' |
730 | ''What can this mean?'' |
730 | ''What did Jem Spyers say?'' |
730 | ''What did she die of, Work''us?'' |
730 | ''What did they say, about last Sunday?'' |
730 | ''What did you say?'' |
730 | ''What direction did he take?'' |
730 | ''What do yer talk about such things for?'' |
730 | ''What do you mean by ca n''t be? |
730 | ''What do you mean by lagging and a lifer?'' |
730 | ''What do you mean by that?'' |
730 | ''What do you mean by this?'' |

730 | ''What do you mean?'' |
730 | ''What do you propose to do with it? |
730 | ''What do you think he''s thinking of, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''What do you think now?'' |
730 | ''What do you think of the old ladies?'' |
730 | ''What do you think would suit me now? |
730 | ''What do you think, then?'' |
730 | ''What do you think?'' |
730 | ''What do you want, then?'' |
730 | ''What do you want?'' |
730 | ''What do you watch me for? |
730 | ''What do_ you_ do here?'' |
730 | ''What do_ you_ say, Charley?'' |
730 | ''What fancy have you got in your head now?'' |
730 | ''What foolery are you up to, now, again? |
730 | ''What foolery is this?'' |
730 | ''What for?'' |
730 | ''What for?'' |
730 | ''What has become of Mr. Brownlow, who used to live in the adjoining house, do you know?'' |
730 | ''What has the name to do with it?'' |
730 | ''What have you done?'' |
730 | ''What have you got to say for yourself, you withered old fence, eh?'' |
730 | ''What have you got, Dodger?'' |
730 | ''What if I pay it for nothing?'' |
730 | ''What if he turns against the others?'' |
730 | ''What is all this?'' |
730 | ''What is it, Nancy, dear?'' |
730 | ''What is it? |
730 | ''What is it?'' |
730 | ''What is it?'' |
730 | ''What is the name to me?'' |
730 | ''What is this? |
730 | ''What is this? |
730 | ''What is this?'' |
730 | ''What lady?'' |
730 | ''What made you tell the magistrate your name was White?'' |
730 | ''What makes you look so flurried?'' |
730 | ''What mill?'' |
730 | ''What more of him?'' |
730 | ''What more of the man she had told them of before? |
730 | ''What more?'' |
730 | ''What name am I to ask for?'' |
730 | ''What name am I to say?'' |
730 | ''What now?'' |
730 | ''What now?'' |
730 | ''What object?'' |
730 | ''What of Rose?'' |
730 | ''What of him?'' |
730 | ''What of the house, my man; eh?'' |
730 | ''What of the letter?'' |
730 | ''What room is this? |
730 | ''What shall it be?'' |
730 | ''What should he have to mind?'' |
730 | ''What should he say?'' |
730 | ''What sort of a noise?'' |
730 | ''What the devil do you come in between me and my dog for?'' |
730 | ''What the devil made you stand lingering there, in the wet?'' |
730 | ''What the devil''s this?'' |
730 | ''What the devil''s this?'' |
730 | ''What then?'' |
730 | ''What time to- morrow shall we say?'' |
730 | ''What was that?'' |
730 | ''What was the fate of the other-- the child?'' |
730 | ''What''ll Fagin say?'' |
730 | ''What''ll be over?'' |
730 | ''What''ll yer give me?'' |
730 | ''What''s become of the boy?'' |
730 | ''What''s it to be?'' |
730 | ''What''s it worth to you?'' |
730 | ''What''s set you a snivelling now?'' |
730 | ''What''s that, sir?'' |
730 | ''What''s that?'' |
730 | ''What''s that?'' |
730 | ''What''s that?'' |
730 | ''What''s the good of talking in that way to me; why do n''t yer speak so as I can understand yer?'' |
730 | ''What''s the good?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter here, my dear?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter here?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter now?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter with the boy?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter with the-- eh?--Why-- Brittles-- look here-- don''t you know?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter with you, porochial Dick?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter? |
730 | ''What''s the matter?'' |
730 | ''What''s the matter?'' |
730 | ''What''s the meaning of this?'' |
730 | ''What''s the wages?'' |
730 | ''What''s this to me?'' |
730 | ''What''s your name, boy?'' |
730 | ''What''s your name, you hardened scoundrel?'' |
730 | ''What?'' |
730 | ''What?'' |
730 | ''What?'' |
730 | ''What?'' |
730 | ''When could I see him?'' |
730 | ''When is it to be done?'' |
730 | ''When?'' |
730 | ''Where are my priwileges?'' |
730 | ''Where are they? |
730 | ''Where are they? |
730 | ''Where did he come from?'' |
730 | ''Where do you mean to stop for the night, Noah?'' |
730 | ''Where do you think the gentleman has come from, Oliver?'' |
730 | ''Where is he? |
730 | ''Where is he?'' |
730 | ''Where is he?'' |
730 | ''Where is he?'' |
730 | ''Where is it now?'' |
730 | ''Where is it? |
730 | ''Where is she? |
730 | ''Where is she?'' |
730 | ''Where s?'' |
730 | ''Where''s Charlotte?'' |
730 | ''Where''s the boy?'' |
730 | ''Where''s the gentleman?'' |
730 | ''Where? |
730 | ''Where?'' |
730 | ''Where?'' |
730 | ''Where?'' |
730 | ''Which is that, Bill?'' |
730 | ''Whining are you?'' |
730 | ''Who are you that''s not to be told? |
730 | ''Who are you?'' |
730 | ''Who is she?'' |
730 | ''Who is the boy? |
730 | ''Who is this fellow?'' |
730 | ''Who pitched that''ere at me? |
730 | ''Who the devil can tell that, without knowing of what kind it is?'' |
730 | ''Who was the other?'' |
730 | ''Who''s that?'' |
730 | ''Who''s that?'' |
730 | ''Who''s the t''other one?'' |
730 | ''Who''s there?'' |
730 | ''Who''s there?'' |
730 | ''Whose turn would that have served, my dear?'' |
730 | ''Whose, ma''am?'' |
730 | ''Why are we brought here to answer to such nonsense as this?'' |
730 | ''Why did n''t you come here before?'' |
730 | ''Why did n''t you come in afore?'' |
730 | ''Why did n''t you send? |
730 | ''Why do n''t you put yourself under Fagin, Oliver?'' |
730 | ''Why have they taken it away?'' |
730 | ''Why not?'' |
730 | ''Why not?'' |
730 | ''Why not?'' |
730 | ''Why not?'' |
730 | ''Why should you be?'' |
730 | ''Why, do you mean to say you could n''t have done it, if you had chosen?'' |
730 | ''Why, do you think?'' |
730 | ''Why, for what,''said the gentleman in a kinder tone,''for what purpose can you have brought us to this strange place? |
730 | ''Why, how''s this?'' |
730 | ''Why, sure you''re not afraid of it?'' |
730 | ''Why, what does the boy mean?'' |
730 | ''Why, what evil wind has blowed you here?'' |
730 | ''Why, what should he say?'' |
730 | ''Why, where''s your spirit?'' |
730 | ''Why, you do n''t mind the old girl, do you, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''Why,''whispered Sikes,''as you cross the lawn--''''Yes?'' |
730 | ''Why-- why? |
730 | ''Why?'' |
730 | ''Why?'' |
730 | ''Will she be buried to- morrow, or next day, or to- night? |
730 | ''Will she go with me?'' |
730 | ''Will ten do?'' |
730 | ''Will you disclose the whole?'' |
730 | ''Will you go along with me, Oliver?'' |
730 | ''Will you speak?'' |
730 | ''Will you take yourself off, before I do you a mischief? |
730 | ''Will you?'' |
730 | ''Will_ he_ be here to- night?'' |
730 | ''With a little persuasion,''thought Fagin,''what more likely than that she would consent to poison him? |
730 | ''Without saying more?'' |
730 | ''Wo n''t you join us? |
730 | ''Wo n''t you tell your own B.?'' |
730 | ''Work''us,''said Noah,''how''s your mother?'' |
730 | ''Wot d''ye mean?'' |
730 | ''Wot department has he got, Fagin?'' |
730 | ''Wot did she take it into her head to go out to- night for, do you think?'' |
730 | ''Wot do they keep such ugly things above the ground for?--Who''s that knocking?'' |
730 | ''Wot do you look at a man so for?'' |
730 | ''Wot now?'' |
730 | ''Wot''s come of young Bates?'' |
730 | ''Would n''t you like to come and look at him, miss, in case he should?'' |
730 | ''Would you like to see the pawnbroker himself?'' |
730 | ''Yer do n''t know who I am, I suppose, Work''us?'' |
730 | ''Yer doubtful of her, are yer?'' |
730 | ''Yes, I know you are,''said the gentleman:''You''re hungry too, an''t you?'' |
730 | ''Yes; well, what of it? |
730 | ''You are on the scent, are you, Nancy?'' |
730 | ''You are quite certain? |
730 | ''You are sure?'' |
730 | ''You believe it, surely?'' |
730 | ''You can talk as you eat, ca n''t you?'' |
730 | ''You can write well now?'' |
730 | ''You did, did you? |
730 | ''You do n''t happen to know any good of him, do you?'' |
730 | ''You do n''t mean to deny that, I suppose?'' |
730 | ''You do n''t mean to go yourself, I suppose?'' |
730 | ''You do n''t mean to say he died?'' |
730 | ''You do n''t mean to say that''s the boy who had the fever, I hope?'' |
730 | ''You do n''t suppose the young lady will see such as her; do you?'' |
730 | ''You do not mean,''said Rose, turning very pale,''to tell me that this was said in earnest?'' |
730 | ''You feel sleepy, do n''t you, my dear?'' |
730 | ''You followed her?'' |
730 | ''You have n''t opened the parcel and swallowed one or two as you come along, have you?'' |
730 | ''You have the same eye to your own interest, that you always had, I doubt not?'' |
730 | ''You know that Mr. Slout is worse to- night, my fascinator?'' |
730 | ''You know you''ve got no father or mother, and that you were brought up by the parish, do n''t you?'' |
730 | ''You never had, perhaps, a certain gold locket and ring?'' |
730 | ''You see the stairs afore you?'' |
730 | ''You see?'' |
730 | ''You that keep this house,''said Sikes, turning his face to Crackit,''do you mean to sell me, or to let me lie here till this hunt is over?'' |
730 | ''You think women never can keep secrets, I suppose?'' |
730 | ''You understand?'' |
730 | ''You were not awake an hour ago?'' |
730 | ''You were not suspected of holding any communication with anybody on the subject which has brought us here to- night, I hope?'' |
730 | ''You will not press these overstrained opinions of yours, so far, as to throw any obstacle in my way?'' |
730 | ''You will not?'' |
730 | ''You will tell her I am here?'' |
730 | ''You wo n''t be-- too-- violent, Bill?'' |
730 | ''You would n''t mind it again, Tom, would you,''asked the Dodger, winking upon Charley and the Jew,''if Bet was all right?'' |
730 | ''You would, would you?'' |
730 | ''You would?'' |
730 | ''You''d like to be able to make pocket- handkerchiefs as easy as Charley Bates, would n''t you, my dear?'' |
730 | ''You''ll keep a quiet tongue in your head, will you?'' |
730 | ''You''re a- going to accommodate us, and wot''s to prevent my standing treat for a pint or so, in return?'' |
730 | ''You''re getting too proud to own me afore company, are you? |
730 | ''You, Martha, tell me; has she been in this way before?'' |
730 | ''You-- you-- will be secret with me?'' |
730 | ''You_ are_ a great deal better, are you not, my dear?'' |
730 | ''Your father walks rather too quick for you, do n''t he, my man?'' |
730 | ''_ Was_ he frightened?'' |
730 | ''_ You_ thought they were talking too much?'' |
730 | A porochial''prentis, who is at present a dead- weight; a millstone, as I may say, round the porochial throat? |
730 | Ai n''t it beautiful?'' |
730 | Ai n''t there any other line open?'' |
730 | Ai n''t you a- trembling while I speak, sir?'' |
730 | Allow me-- Miss Rose, will you permit me? |
730 | And do n''t he know me? |
730 | And how dare you encourage him, you insolent minx? |
730 | And what''s six weeks of it? |
730 | And why should they? |
730 | Any slops, eh?'' |
730 | Are you Nancy?'' |
730 | Are you a man?'' |
730 | Are you any fresher now, or do you want the iron candlestick to wake you thoroughly?'' |
730 | Are you aweer, Mrs. Mann, that you are, as I may say, a porochial delegate, and a stipendiary?'' |
730 | Are you going to take upon yourselves to swear, that that boy upstairs is the boy that was put through the little window last night? |
730 | Are you?'' |
730 | At length she said,''You''re going by coach, sir? |
730 | Bad people have fevers sometimes; have n''t they, eh? |
730 | Beak''s order, eh? |
730 | Brownlow, I believe, sir?'' |
730 | Bumble?'' |
730 | Bumble?'' |
730 | Bumble?'' |
730 | Bumble?'' |
730 | Bumble?'' |
730 | Bumble?'' |
730 | Bumble?'' |
730 | But I can go and earn some more, when I like; ca n''t I, Fagin?'' |
730 | But I may ask you two questions, may I?'' |
730 | But, to speak seriously, Harry; has any communication from the great nobs produced this sudden anxiety on your part to be gone?'' |
730 | CHAPTER XLIII WHEREIN IS SHOWN HOW THE ARTFUL DODGER GOT INTO TROUBLE''And so it was you that was your own friend, was it?'' |
730 | CHAPTER XXXI INVOLVES A CRITICAL POSITION''Who''s that?'' |
730 | Can I have a word or two with you in private, if you please?'' |
730 | Can it be used against me?'' |
730 | Corney,''said Mr. Bumble, stooping over the matron,''what is this, ma''am? |
730 | Corney?'' |
730 | Corney?'' |
730 | Corney?'' |
730 | Corney?'' |
730 | Corney?'' |
730 | D''ye hear me?'' |
730 | D''ye hear me?'' |
730 | D''ye hear?'' |
730 | D''ye hear?'' |
730 | Day? |
730 | Do I understand that he asked for more, after he had eaten the supper allotted by the dietary?'' |
730 | Do n''t keep him too warm, ma''am; but be careful that you do n''t let him be too cold; will you have the goodness?'' |
730 | Do n''t you know it? |
730 | Do n''t you know it?'' |
730 | Do n''t you know the devil when he''s got a great- coat on?'' |
730 | Do n''t you see all this?'' |
730 | Do n''t you take any pride out of yourself? |
730 | Do you guess that I have come to remind you of a promise?'' |
730 | Do you hear me?'' |
730 | Do you hear me?'' |
730 | Do you hear me?'' |
730 | Do you hear sir? |
730 | Do you hear, somebody?'' |
730 | Do you hear?'' |
730 | Do you know a man named Monks?'' |
730 | Do you know this young lady, sir?'' |
730 | Do you know what you''re doing?'' |
730 | Do you know who you are, and what you are?'' |
730 | Do you mind that time when Conkey was robbed of his money, though? |
730 | Do you think so now?'' |
730 | Do you understand me?'' |
730 | Do you understand, mistress?'' |
730 | Do you want to rob me, or to murder me? |
730 | Eh, Charlotte? |
730 | Eh? |
730 | Eh?'' |
730 | Fagin?'' |
730 | Fevers are not peculiar to good people; are they? |
730 | Giles, are you a Protestant?'' |
730 | Good to eat, Harry?'' |
730 | Grimwig, will you leave us for a few minutes?'' |
730 | Hand over, will you?'' |
730 | Has anything happened, ma''am? |
730 | Have you any objection to see him in my presence?'' |
730 | Have you got a coach''us here, that you could put it up in, for five or ten minutes?'' |
730 | Have you seen the thief?'' |
730 | He could scarcely stand: and if he were in full possession of all the best powers of his slight and youthful frame, whither could he fly? |
730 | He did n''t drop out of the clouds, did he, master?'' |
730 | He inquired, as he pointed to Monks,''Do you know that person?'' |
730 | He put on his hat, and, pausing by the bed- side on his way to the door, added,''She was a good- looking girl, too; where did she come from?'' |
730 | He was interesting, was n''t he? |
730 | He''ll be a great man himself, and will make you one too, if you take pattern by him.--Is my handkerchief hanging out of my pocket, my dear?'' |
730 | He''s your husband, eh?'' |
730 | How do you feel, my dear?'' |
730 | How long before?'' |
730 | How should he, when their possessors so seldom know themselves? |
730 | How should you like to grow up a clever man, and write books, eh?'' |
730 | How will he stand in the Newgate Calendar? |
730 | I am a very little boy, sir; and it is so-- so--''''So what?'' |
730 | I dare say the boy is n''t too dainty to eat''em-- are you, boy?'' |
730 | I have not told you all, have I?'' |
730 | I need not tell you he was snared away before I knew his history--''''Why not?'' |
730 | I say, how the Artful would bother''em would n''t he?'' |
730 | If they shot him dead, I was not the cause; do you hear me? |
730 | If you buried him fifty feet deep, and took me across his grave, I fancy I should know, if there was n''t a mark above it, that he lay buried there?'' |
730 | If you had had patience for a twelvemonth, at most, could n''t you have got him convicted, and sent safely out of the kingdom; perhaps for life?'' |
730 | Ill- treating the boys, you covetous, avaricious, in- sa- ti- a- ble old fence?'' |
730 | Ingenious workman, ai n''t he, Oliver?'' |
730 | Is Fagin upstairs?'' |
730 | Is he grateful, ma''am? |
730 | Is he grateful? |
730 | Is it true, or a lie?'' |
730 | Is n''t that enough for the old wretch, without blows?'' |
730 | Is n''t there anybody here,''she said, looking round,''that will see a simple message carried for a poor wretch like me?'' |
730 | Is she dozing, old lady?'' |
730 | Is that it, my dear?'' |
730 | Is that you, Mr. Bumble, sir?'' |
730 | Is the poor creature much hurt?'' |
730 | Is-- is-- that door shut?'' |
730 | It must come, some time or another, and why not in the winter time when you do n''t want to go out a- walking so much; eh, Fagin?'' |
730 | It was very dark; why did n''t they bring a light? |
730 | Just step into this corner a moment, will you?'' |
730 | Liberal terms, Mr. Sowerberry, liberal terms?'' |
730 | Mann?'' |
730 | Master Bates felt it so; and again said,''What do you mean?'' |
730 | Maylie?'' |
730 | Maylie?'' |
730 | Mr. Brownlow gently shook his head to impose silence on his friend, and resumed:''Do you know where this poor boy is now?'' |
730 | Mr. Gamfield''s countenance brightened, as, with a quick step, he returned to the table, and said,''What''ll you give, gen''l''men? |
730 | Mrs. Mann raised her hands in astonishment; but added, after a moment''s reflection,''How comes he to have any name at all, then?'' |
730 | Must I go back to events which cast a shade upon the memory of your parent, or will you spare it, and disclose to me the truth?'' |
730 | My dear child, what distresses you?'' |
730 | No one who could hear, and might, by possibility, understand?'' |
730 | Now, Nolly, dear, are you ready?'' |
730 | Now, my dear, about that crib at Chertsey; when is it to be done, Bill, eh? |
730 | Now, policeman, what is this?'' |
730 | Now, the question is, whether these men are justified by the fact; if not, in what situation do they place themselves?'' |
730 | Oliver White, eh?'' |
730 | Or has my probable advancement to riches and honour, given this scruple birth?'' |
730 | Or how could she postpone the journey without exciting suspicion? |
730 | Payment stopped at the Bank? |
730 | Pray, how is Brittles?'' |
730 | Said he wanted to, did he, my boy?'' |
730 | Send him out with the Dodger and Charley? |
730 | Shall us, Oliver, eh? |
730 | Shall we have some bread, dear?'' |
730 | She told it all every word without a threat, without a murmur-- she did-- did she not?'' |
730 | So like Mr. Grannett, was n''t it?'' |
730 | Sowerberry, will you have the goodness to come here a moment, my dear?'' |
730 | Spyers loses sight of him a minute as he turns a corner; shoots round; sees a little crowd; dives in;"Which is the man?" |
730 | Strip the bishop of his apron, or the beadle of his hat and lace; what are they? |
730 | That''s the little window that he got in at, eh? |
730 | The Jew shook his head impatiently, and said in a whisper,''Is_ he_ here?'' |
730 | The laced coat, and the cocked hat; where were they? |
730 | The woman know what it is, does she?'' |
730 | There are a good many of''em, ai n''t there? |
730 | There is no possibility of any mistake on your part, my boy, is there?'' |
730 | To this inquiry the girl returned the not uncommon, but rather evasive reply of''I do n''t know; where do you come from?'' |
730 | To whom? |
730 | Too bad, is n''t it, Oliver?'' |
730 | Was it that as frightened you, love?'' |
730 | Was you never on the mill?'' |
730 | What DO you know of him?'' |
730 | What account does he give of himself? |
730 | What am I to dodge her for? |
730 | What are yer made for?'' |
730 | What are yer talking about? |
730 | What are you doing here?'' |
730 | What are you now?'' |
730 | What are you stopping me for?'' |
730 | What are you thinking of?'' |
730 | What availed the noise and bustle of cheerful morning, which penetrated even there, to him? |
730 | What books are these? |
730 | What can I do to save him, sir?'' |
730 | What can I do to serve you?'' |
730 | What could I do? |
730 | What could Mr. Bumble do? |
730 | What course of action could she determine upon, which could be adopted in eight- and- forty hours? |
730 | What do you look at me so hard for?'' |
730 | What do you mean by leaving a man in this state, three weeks and more, you false- hearted wagabond?'' |
730 | What do you mean by this noise, you hussies?'' |
730 | What do you mean? |
730 | What do you think of that?'' |
730 | What do you think?'' |
730 | What fascination is it that can take you back, and make you cling to wickedness and misery? |
730 | What gentleman?'' |
730 | What have paupers to do with soul or spirit? |
730 | What have you been doing to yourself?'' |
730 | What have you got to say, sir?'' |
730 | What have you seen? |
730 | What is he, after all, they would say? |
730 | What is he? |
730 | What is the matter?'' |
730 | What is the matter?'' |
730 | What new power can I acquire?'' |
730 | What odds in that?'' |
730 | What of that? |
730 | What right have they to butcher me?'' |
730 | What then?'' |
730 | What would he do with coals? |
730 | What''ll you give?'' |
730 | What''s amiss now, eh?'' |
730 | What''s that?'' |
730 | What''s the matter?'' |
730 | What''s the name of the house-- t- h- r-- three what?'' |
730 | What''s the odds where it comes from? |
730 | What''s the row?'' |
730 | What''s the row?'' |
730 | What''s your name?'' |
730 | What?'' |
730 | What_ could_ the boy be crying for? |
730 | When is it to be done? |
730 | When is it to come off?'' |
730 | When there are two parties to a bargain, it is only reasonable that the interests of both should be consulted; is it, my good friend?'' |
730 | When was it?'' |
730 | When? |
730 | Where am I to go?'' |
730 | Where am I to wait for her? |
730 | Where are they hiding? |
730 | Where are they? |

730 | Where does he live?'' |
730 | Where have I been brought to?'' |
730 | Where have they been? |
730 | Where have you been, this long, long while? |

730 | Where''s the gal going to at this time of night?'' |
730 | Where''s the policeman? |
730 | Where''s the third? |
730 | Where? |
730 | Which is it?'' |
730 | Which way have they taken?'' |
730 | Who but poor ould Fagin was the means of your having such a handy girl about you?'' |
730 | Who is he? |
730 | Who is it? |
730 | Who is this? |
730 | Who was the mother? |
730 | Who''ll say as much as that, I should like to know; eh, Fagin?'' |
730 | Why are you awake? |
730 | Why ca n''t I lie by for a week or so, and, forcing blunt from Fagin, get abroad to France? |
730 | Why did n''t you take my advise in the beginning; you would if he had n''t had a fever, I suppose, eh? |
730 | Why did n''t you write, my dear, and say you were coming? |
730 | Why do n''t you let the boy alone?'' |
730 | Why do you talk to me of brothers? |
730 | Why do you wish to return to companions you paint in such terrible colors? |
730 | Why have they not been here?'' |
730 | Why not have kept him here among the rest, and made a sneaking, snivelling pickpocket of him at once?'' |
730 | Will you return to this gang of robbers, and to this man, when a word can save you? |
730 | Will you stand upon your legs, you young devil?'' |
730 | Will you?'' |
730 | Wo n''t he be glad to see you? |
730 | Wot about it?'' |
730 | Wot d''ye mean?'' |
730 | Wot does it mean?'' |
730 | Wot is it?'' |
730 | Wot is this here business? |
730 | Wot''s it all about, Fagin? |
730 | Would n''t they, Tom White, eh?'' |
730 | Would you go and be dependent on your friends?'' |
730 | You do n''t mind sleeping among the coffins, I suppose? |
730 | You do n''t object to that?'' |
730 | You know you''re an orphan, I suppose?'' |
730 | You like it so, I suppose?'' |
730 | You must pardon my finding fault with you,--but why not have brought him?'' |
730 | You understand me?'' |
730 | You were beadle here, once; were you not?'' |
730 | You will not refuse to do this, mother?'' |
730 | You wo n''t, wo n''t you? |
730 | You would like, first, to see the place where the thieves made their attempt, I suppose?'' |
730 | You''d never have me anything else, if you had your will, except now;--the humour does n''t suit you, does n''t it?'' |
730 | You''re afraid of our getting the better of you, are you?'' |
730 | You''ve been a stealing''em, have you? |
730 | _ Can_ he be innocent? |
730 | asked Monks, in the same hollow whisper;''No sick wretch or idiot in some other bed? |
730 | can you really believe that this delicate boy has been the voluntary associate of the worst outcasts of society?'' |
730 | cried Mr. Bumble, with ill- feigned enthusiasm,''or is that little Oliver? |
730 | cried Oliver,''What is it?'' |
730 | cried the Jew,''alone?'' |
730 | cried the gentleman,''Better or worse?'' |
730 | demanded Harry:''are you sure?'' |
730 | exclaimed Mr. Bumble;''who has dared to--? |
730 | he said, hastily concealing the key in his breast;''who''s that? |
730 | interposed Mr. Mann,''I suppose you''re going to say that you DO want for something, now? |
730 | laughed Master Bates,''what a lark that would be, would n''t it, Fagin? |
730 | murmured Nancy in a gentle voice;''Nolly?'' |
730 | muttered the Jew: changing countenance;''only two of''em? |
730 | replied Fagin angrily;''what are you blubbering for?'' |
730 | said Monks significantly, and with a look of eager inquiry;''there may be money''s worth to get, eh?'' |
730 | said Mr. Fang, throwing the paper on one side,''what''s this fellow charged with?'' |
730 | said Noah:''Oliver, sir,--Oliver has--''''What? |
730 | said a smartly- dressed female, looking out from a door behind her,''who do you want here?'' |
730 | said the Jew, taking up a jagged and knotted club which law in a corner of the fireplace;''eh?'' |
730 | said the hump- backed man, who had watched him keenly,''what do you mean by coming into my house, in this violent way? |
730 | said the undertaker, glancing over it with a lively countenance;''an order for a coffin, eh?'' |
730 | said the undertaker; looking up from the book, and pausing in the middle of a word;''is that you, Bumble?'' |
730 | says the ungrateful villain,"what''s the use of_ this_ to me? |
730 | she added, disengaging her hand,''why should we prolong this painful interview? |
730 | that''s the boy, is it?'' |
730 | the other man seemed to answer;''could I mistake him, think you? |
730 | then it''s a panel, eh?'' |
730 | what is to be done?'' |
730 | what''s this? |
730 | whispered the young man;''why did you not write before?'' |
730 | why did they send for these people?'' |
730 | would n''t you like to be a book- writer?'' |
730 | you know me, do you?'' |
730 | you really expect him to come back, do you?'' |
730 | you''ve thought better of it, have you?'' |
