4271or will they try to make me renounce my faith?
595353,000 of them?
59535All?
59535And how long does that last?
59535And if we''re not?
59535And what of the phenomena an individual scientist observes and evaluates? 59535 Any subversives among them?"
59535Anything else, Doc?
59535Can you be specific?
59535Can you justify what you have done to these people even from your own value judgement basis?
59535Can you tell when your baby is starting to wake up?
59535Do n''t you know your baby is all right?
59535Do n''t you realize that Huth can destroy all of you?
59535Do you have another nursery room, like the one we visited this morning?
59535Do you know the number of missing persons listed annually by the Los Angeles Police Department?
59535Do you mind telling me your name?
59535Do you now? 59535 Do you think we can do anything like that again?"
59535Do you think we''ll ever get back, Lucifer?
59535Does this begin to satisfy your laws of probability?
59535Dr. Brill, are you ready to share your primacy in psi research with the physicial scientist?
59535Dr. Brill,said Huth,"will you oblige us now?"
59535Enough for what?
59535Gentlemen, is there any limit to the power of a psi focus? 59535 Glad?"
59535Has anyone been here?
59535Hostage?
59535How could we try this thing, Doc?
59535How did you know that?
59535How did you know what was said in this room?
59535How do you do this thing?
59535How does anyone know they know anything?
59535How many children are there here now?
59535How''d things go today?
59535Huh?
59535I thought--"Does a child have to be awake to tell of its hunger?
59535I wonder where Earth is?
59535I''m from San Diego-- how about you?
59535If a psi focus is possible, we have our own world to win-- the frontiers of infinity to explore....Are you willing to try?"
59535If you do n''t mind, Dr. Brill-- just what in the hell are positive positives?
59535Is n''t it simply incredible that 3,000 people could disappear without causing a commotion?
59535Is something wrong with my baby?
59535Is that why your mind feels like a machine?
59535Is the baby usually crying when it is brought into the room?
59535Is this a laboratory big enough to challenge you?
59535Is this necessary?
59535Is your question philosophical or psychological, Miss Poteil?
59535Just what are you interested in? 59535 May I inquire as to the nature of your profession?"
59535Miss Poteil, have you any idea where we are?
59535Mr. Huth, how long have we, Dr. Brill and I, been here on Melus?
59535Mrs. Brill-- how would you propose to train a child so early?
59535Now tell me,Nina asked,"is your baby awake yet?"
59535Pull.... Oh, I had n''t realized.... What do you think you can do?
59535Shall we blast that ship before it opens up on us?
59535The girl with the blindfold?
59535Then what do you see in the future of this project?
59535Then why do you destroy it?
59535Then why in the hell is this important, anyway?
59535We''re going to pull that plug, remember?
59535Wha--?
59535What about the children?
59535What about you-- are you ever afraid, Nina?
59535What about your_ Goolies_?
59535What are you proving by this inferior duplication of our psi tests?
59535What do you think now, Dr. Brill? 59535 What if all the psi power here could be focused on one objective?
59535What is it?
59535What is unhappiness?
59535What is your last recollection prior to awakening?
59535What might that be?
59535What now, Doc?
59535What will we do?
59535What''s the matter,she cried,"do n''t you have faith in yourselves?
59535What-- what do you mean?
59535What?
59535When do you plan to do this?
59535When is the next feeding time?
59535When?--Where?--Who?
59535Where did you learn that name?
59535Where? 59535 Who or what was that creature?"
59535Will you try to feed her this time before she cries, when she first tells you that she is hungry?
59535Would 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?
59535Yes?
59535You both there?
59535You do n''t care what all this may mean?
59535You do n''t have to look to stop them, do you? 59535 You do n''t remember?
59535You got it all figured out?
59535You''re not going to do something to my baby?
59535***** What should he think?
59535A spaceship crushed?
59535An attacking force cut down like grass under an invisible mower?
59535And if the answer was framework, could there be truth?
59535And the next?
59535And the next?
59535Are you afraid to fight with a new weapon?"
59535Are you afraid, Lucifer?"
59535Are you still afraid?"
59535Are you?"
59535Brill...?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535Brill?"
59535But does a frontier of science have purpose other than to lead to an infinite succession of new frontiers?
59535But how could he share his indecision?
59535But what about the next frontier?
59535But what of Huth, and Mendel''s Planet?
59535But what use was it to go on confirming and re- confirming the existence of positives and positive positives if they just up and disappeared?
59535But, I mean... under social or professional circumstances?"
59535Can we work on them here today?"
59535Could Soviet agents have smuggled them out of the country?"
59535Could it be possible after all that the unorthodoxy of Earth''s parapsychology might have to be shaken from its own orthodoxy?"
59535Could n''t facts take form without credo?
59535Could you verify this with Dr. Thame?
59535Did facts shape the framework, or were they molded to conform to it?
59535Did n''t you feel what Dr. Brill meant by a psi focus?
59535Did you see what happened to the guard tower?"
59535Do you follow me, Sir?"
59535Do you trust me?"
59535Does that ease your mind?"
59535Einstein made truth relative to its own framework, but which came first-- the framework or the truth?
59535Good Lord, why not?
59535Had he remained too long on one frontier?
59535Have you ever thought how your science would appear to an extra- terrestrial mind?"
59535Having thus appraised and catalogued the woman, Lucifer asked,"May I have the privilege of making your acquaintance?"
59535He asked,"Do you have a sense of what may happen tomorrow?"
59535How could a professor of parapsychology, a professor who knew less about his subject than the youngest child on this planet, assail such peaks?
59535How could a psi focus be channeled and used constructively?
59535How could he, or any combination of men, offer leadership into such a future?
59535How could such children be controlled, educated, guided to maturity?
59535How do I know?"
59535How else do you suppose I happened to wake up in this bed?"
59535How had things gone?
59535However, in response to the first, may I inquire: Have you studied astronomy?"
59535If the project could survive against the return of Huth''s people, what would keep it from disintegrating and destroying itself?
59535If there were problem adolescents on Earth, what problems lay ahead with adolescents who could hotrod among the stars?
59535Instead of moving a chair across the room, making a table jump, levitating a person-- why could n''t a building be moved?
59535Is n''t it terrible to look at shadows?"
59535Is n''t that a wonderful thought?"
59535Is n''t that important?"
59535Nina, flushed with eagerness, asked:"How is the baby fed?"
59535Now consider this question: Have you looked into other cubicles of science for answers to psi?"
59535Now do you have faith in yourselves?
59535Now, are you going to feed your baby yourself this next time?"
59535Now, if you please....""Would you care to make another appointment for tomorrow?"
59535Quit shovin'', will ya''?
59535She whispered:"Can I stay here a little while?"
59535Was this forever to be the entrapment of science?
59535We''re set to pull the plug any time you say?"
59535What happened to non- positives on Melus?
59535What have you proved that Rhine did not prove twenty years ago?"
59535What is your specialization?"
59535What should he believe?
59535What should he believe?
59535What should he believe?
59535What should he do?
59535What would Nina say and feel when she learned that he had no psi talent to pass on to their child?
59535When he had collated his emotions, he asked in his customary tone,"Have we met?"
59535When would science learn to use genius without being smothered by it?
59535Where do you practice?"
59535White House asked tentatively,"What about the Russian angle?
59535White House asked:"What are we going to do about it?"
59535Why else would they be wasting their time with rockets, while another race was running around the universe, kidnapping positives?
59535Why?"
59535Wo n''t you come in?"
59535Would Fetzer and his men be able to contact everyone?
59535Would the people believe enough in their own power to make a serious attempt at focusing it on the guard tower?
59535Would you attack on horseback if you had a jet loaded with atom bombs?"
59535Would you be content to return to your old cubicle?"
59535what?"
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?
12398Again,''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?''
12398And are not the very devils, in Scripture, said to believe and tremble?
12398And didst thou not, on that occasion, heavily blame thyself?
12398And has she not forgiven me?--I am then in statu quo prius with her, am I not?
12398And how was this happy ending to be brought about?
12398And is she dead?--Indeed dead?
12398And let me ask what thou thinkest of it?
12398And must she not suffer dishonour in his dishonour?
12398And ought a man of a contrary character, for the sake of either of our reputations, to be plagued with me?
12398And shall not young ladies endeavour to make up for their defects in one part of education, by their excellence in another?''
12398And was not her aspect a benign proof of the observation?
12398And what are twenty, or thirty, or forty years to look back upon?
12398And what is the cause of his present concern, as to his own particular?
12398And what is there in one woman more than another, for matter of that?
12398And what, in effect, does my mother say?
12398And yet, engaged to enter into that state, as I am, how can I help myself?
12398And, who shall be proud of talents they give not to themselves?''
12398And, with these notions, let me repeat my question, Do you think I ought to marry at all?
12398Are not all the girls forewarned?
12398At another time,''Has not this accomplishment been a part of your education, my Nancy?
12398But are you, to whom the occasion is owing, entitled to rejoice in their distress?
12398But for thy HEART, Belford, who ever doubted the wickedness of that?
12398But if that happens to her which is likely to happen, wilt thou not tremble for what may befal the principal?
12398But is it not true, that those altercations are the foundation of the whole, and therefore a necessary part of the work?
12398But this was her answer;''I have my choice, who can wish for more?
12398But what is this, cousin Charlotte, said I, that is dearer to you than your life?
12398But what should I be the better for killing him?
12398But what title have I to call him to account, who intend not to have him?''
12398But why is death set in such shocking lights, when it is the universal lot?
12398But why, if such were his purpose, did he not let me know it before I left England?
12398But wilt thou write often, when I am gone?
12398But, 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?
12398Can a wise young lady be easy under such censure?
12398Could 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?
12398Could ever wilful hard- heartedness, the Colonel asks, be more severely punished?
12398Did not the lady herself once putt his very point home upon me?
12398Did not the surgeon tell me I might?
12398Do I not pay for it now?
12398Do the surgeons actually give her over?
12398Do you think you are among those who know not how to make allowances?
12398Does it not look as if your principal motive to oblige was to obtain applause?
12398For am I not her husband?
12398For is she not mine?
12398For, I suppose, Jack, it is no joke: she is certainly and bonâ fide dead: I''n''t she?
12398For, 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?
12398Had she no repinings?
12398Had the dear child no heart burnings?
12398Have 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?
12398Her sex, did I say?
12398How could she then forgive the wretch by whose premeditated villany she was entangled?
12398How often, with you, has impetuosity brought on abasement?
12398How then can I expect mercy any where else?
12398How, then, for your own honour, can we allow of your excuses?''
12398I came back to the bed- side when the surgeons had inspected the fracture; and asked them, If there were any expectation of her life?
12398I did not ask her, by whom reduced?
12398I must go down to this officious Peer-- Who the devil sent for him?
12398If I marry either a sordid or an imperious wretch, can I, do you think, live with him?
12398In half of any of these periods, what friends might not I have mourned for?
12398In such a case, my Cousin, where shall the evil stop?--And who shall avenge on you?--And who on your avenger?
12398Is not the man guilty of a high degree of injustice, who is more apt to give contradiction, than able to bear it?
12398Is not this Mr. Morden''s hand?
12398Justly, 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?
12398Let me consider, Lovelace-- Whose turn can be next?
12398Let 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?
12398May I recover?
12398Meantime, continued I, tell me, with temper and calmness, why was you so desirous to see me?
12398Mrs. Carter asked, To what purpose, if the operation would not save her?
12398Now, Lovelace, let me know if the word grace can be read from my pen without a sneer from thee and thy associates?
12398O my Aunt, said Arabella, no more of that!--Who would have thought that the dear creature had been such a penitent?
12398Once more then let me execrate-- but now violence and passion again predominate!--And how can it be otherwise?
12398Pray, do you never travel thirty or forty miles?
12398Shall we suppose, that you sing but indifferently?
12398She, no doubt, is happy: but who shall forgive for a whole family, in all its branches made miserable for their lives?
12398Sir, who is good?
12398Such exalted generosity!--Why didst thou put into my craving hands the copy of her will?
12398Supposing this excellent person absent, who, my dear, if your example spread, shall sing after you?
12398The CHILD so much a woman, what must the WOMAN be?
12398The conquest did not pay trouble; and what was there in one woman more than another?
12398They that have seen him shall say, Where is he?
12398Thou art a pretty fellow for this: For how wouldst thou have saved her?
12398Thou talkest of a wife, Jack: What thinkest you of our Charlotte?
12398To him who had been the cause that thou wert cut off in the bloom of youth?''
12398To 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?
12398Upon such despicable terms as these, think you that I could bear to live?
12398Upon the whole, Jack, had not the lady died, would there have been half so much said of it, as there is?
12398Was I the cause of her death?
12398Was he unable to work himself up to a resolution, till he knew me to be out of the kingdom?
12398Were 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?
12398What else signifies her forgiveness?
12398What great matters has she suffered, that grief should kill her thus?
12398What have Tourville and Mowbray to do, that they can not set out with you?
12398What mercy can I expect?
12398What methods didst thou take to save her?
12398What though I treated her like a villain?
12398What was the world to her, wringing her hands, now the child of her bosom, and of her heart, was no more?
12398Whence can this particularity arise?
12398Which is Mr. Belford''s?
12398Who can bear such reflections as these?
12398Who could forbear to do so?
12398Who knows but that those things, which will help to secure you in the way you are got into, may convert me?
12398Who, I?
12398Whose else can she be?
12398Why not?
12398Why sentest thou to me the posthumous letter?--What thou I was earnest to see the will?
12398Why should I oppress others, to gratify myself?
12398Why, he asks, did his mother bring him up to know no controul?
12398Why, then, should such cursed qualms take him?--Who would have thought he had been such poor blood?
12398Why, why did my mother bring me up to bear no controul?
12398Will amputation save her?
12398Will it avail you any thing?
12398Will those be an objection?
12398Will you not, dear Sir, favour us with your presence at this melancholy time?
12398Wilt thou then piece the thread where thou brokest it off?
12398Would she not have been mine had I not?
12398Would 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?
12398Yet who but must pity the unhappy mother?
12398Yet why he should, I can not see: for if she is gone, she is gone; and who can help it?
12398You hate them; and they would be gainers by his death; rejoicers in your''s-- And have you not done mischief enough already?
12398and, being forgiven by her, am I not the chosen of her heart?
12398as if I had never offended?--Whose then can she be but mine?
12398or could I help it?
12398preferable to the talent of singing?
12398said she, and is it come to this?--O my poor Nancy!--How shall I be able to break the matter to my Nancy?
12398said she, did you not tell me I might recover?
12398to 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?)
12398what temptations from worldly prosperity might I not have encountered with?
12398what will become of me?--Yet tell me,( for the surgeons have told you the truth, no doubt,) tell me, shall I do well again?
12398when, shall I know a joyful hour?
12398who dare call me to account?
12180( briskly) And by what arguments, Sir, do you propose to prevail upon me?
12180A fortnight, Sir?
12180A pretty character for thee, is it not?
12180A skilful physician?
12180Afraid of what, Doctor?
12180And 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?
12180And can indignities of any kind be properly pardoned till we have it in our power to punish them?
12180And can this be the act of penitence?
12180And did she send you such a letter?
12180And had he been pardoned, would he not then have been at liberty to do as much mischief as ever?
12180And how could Belton help that?
12180And indeed, either openly or secretly, who has not?
12180And now, Mrs. Smith, said I, where are your gloves?
12180And now, what ought I to say?
12180And should I think myself concerned for your fortune, and not for your honour?
12180And 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?
12180And then add:] But were they ever so favourably inclined to me now, what can they do for me?
12180And then recovering himself, with another stretch and a shake, What''s o''clock?
12180And then would my brother, or my cousin Morden, have been more secure than now?
12180And then, Sir, of what avail will be the''eulogies''you shall all, peradventure, join to give to her memory?
12180And to what may this indifference be owing?
12180And were you, Sir, thus earnest?
12180And what are those of the ladies?
12180And what do ye do, when called in, but nurse our distempers, till from pigmies you make giants of them?
12180And what farther, in your opinion, can be done?
12180And what follows?
12180And what have I, more than many others, to answer for on this account in the world''s eye?
12180And what is the difference of a few days to you, when I am gratified rather than discomposed by it?
12180And what is to be the end of your interrogatories?
12180And what must they be every time she turns her head towards it?
12180And what, after all, would this lady deserve, if she has deceived me in this case?
12180And what, pray, is the part I act, and my motives for it?
12180And 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?
12180And where dost think this was?
12180And who but ourselves can make out our characters, were you inclined to let any body see what passes between us?
12180And 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?
12180And who knows where it may yet end?
12180And who, pray, is in this room?
12180And why?
12180And will he come?
12180And will nothing make him serious?
12180And yet go out again this morning early?
12180And, as to you, Sir, she forgives you: she wishes you well; and happier than you will let her die in peace?
12180Are not my days few?
12180Are you not willing, Nephew, are you not most willing, to marry this lady, if she can be prevailed upon to have you?
12180Are you reconciled to them?
12180Are you sent for down?
12180As 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?
12180At last she broke silence, asking me, if you were really and indeed so ill as it was said you were?
12180Brand really seems to be?
12180Brother 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?
12180But I am not merry-- I am sad!--Hey- ho!--Where shall I find my dear Miss Harlowe?
12180But are there no hopes of her recovery?
12180But did my cousin come purposely to town to see me?
12180But 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?
12180But have you, Sir, that letter of his in which he gives you( as I suppose he does) the copy of mine?
12180But if he come, what shall I do about the screen?
12180But let me ask you, Mr. Lovelace, what is the name of your friend, who is admitted so easily into my cousin''s presence?
12180But my friends may possibly be better justified than the reporters-- For who knows what they may have heard?
12180But 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?
12180But then what is my tumbling over and over through the floor into a frightful hole, descending as she ascends?
12180But what accounting for it is necessary?
12180But what are the black sweeping mantles and robes of Lord M. thrown over my face?
12180But 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?
12180But what is the meaning I hear nothing from thee?
12180But what is this saying, when already I curse the whole world except her-- myself most?
12180But what need the doctor to ask her leave to write to her friends?
12180But what of that?
12180But whither am I running?
12180But who told this hard- hearted and death- pronouncing doctor that she will hold it no longer?
12180But who, that has so many ludicrous images raised in his mind by the awkward penitence, can forbear laughing at thee?
12180But whose is this?
12180But why delay I thus my messenger?
12180But why didst thou not comfort the poor man about the rencounter between him and that poltroon Metcalfe?
12180But with some, indeed, every thing she does must be good, every thing I do must be bad-- And why?
12180But, 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?
12180But, Sir, will you permit me to take with me these two letters?
12180But, if you leave me-- what is the world, or any thing in it, to your ANNA HOWE?
12180But, what shall we say?
12180By what warrant says he this?
12180Can 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?
12180Can you, Sir, remind me of any thing necessary to be done or said to make your office easy?
12180Col. Are you sure, Sir, that Mr. Belford is a man of honour?
12180Col. High language, Mr. Lovelace?
12180Col. Is it possible?
12180Col. 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?
12180Col. 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?
12180Col. What reason, Sir, may I ask, does she give, against listening to so powerful a mediation, and to such offers?
12180Col. Who are you, Sir?
12180Come, 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?
12180Confound me for a gaping puppy, how I yawn!--Where shall I begin?
12180Could he not have done it without letting her know any thing of the matter?
12180D----n the fellow, where''s thy penknife?
12180D----n the fellow, why dost struggle thus?
12180Dangerously ill, say you?
12180Dear Mrs. Lovick, tell me what is become of her?
12180Did you not see him?
12180Do n''t you remember the lines of Howard, which once you read to me in my ivy- bower?
12180Do 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?
12180Do you know Mr. Belford, friend?
12180Do you know me?
12180Do you know who I am?
12180Do you know your poor friend Belton?
12180Except indeed we look forward to the rewards of HEREAFTER, which, morally, she must be sure of, or who can?
12180For does she not brazen out her crime, even after detection?
12180For how is it that I am the enemy of her soul, when I love her both soul and body?
12180For may not the inclination my mother has given up be the effect of a too- fond indulgence, rather than that I merit the indulgence?
12180Had I not, Mrs. Smith?
12180Has any body been here from him?
12180Has he not destroyed my fame and my fortune?
12180Has he not punished me enough for my preference of him to all his sex?
12180Has repented of all his baseness: And will nothing do?
12180Has she had good attendance, Sir?
12180Hast thou?--Answer me, man: Hast thou, or not?
12180He was a fearless, cheerful fellow: who''d have thought all that should end in such dejected whimpering and terror?
12180Here, Andrew,[ to her footman,] you want a pair of gloves, do n''t you?
12180How can that be, widow?
12180How can you think of such a thing, Mr. Belford?
12180How could your accursed friend-- And how could her cruel parents?
12180How familiarly dost thou use the words, dying, dimness, tremor?
12180How long have I dozed?
12180How so?
12180How then can the fall of such a one create a proper distress, when all the circumstances of it are considered?
12180How would you like, my dear, to have any of these things said?
12180I am sure I should-- But pray, Sir, how did you leave them?
12180I asked, if I should write to her cousin, as he knew not how ill she was, to hasten up?
12180I asked, what it was they sold?
12180I asked, what was intended by your brother and sister?
12180I 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?
12180I demanded where their rappee was?
12180I do, Sir; and what can I say more?
12180I had but just dispatched your servant, and was asking her nurse if I might be again admitted?
12180I 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?
12180I hesitated: For how could I answer for such a man?
12180I 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?
12180I stept to him, and favoured his retreat; she only saying, Are you going, Mr. Belford?
12180I will pay thee a good price, man: do n''t struggle thus?
12180I would be glad to know how I am to take your''s?
12180If 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?
12180If she should die, how will all my pertnesses to her fly in my face!-- Why, why, did I ever vex her?
12180If, Madam, your cousin Morden should come, you would be glad to see him, I presume?
12180In which case, would not( on his acquittal, or pardon) resentments have been reciprocally heightened?
12180Is it any merit to admire more than ever a lady who can so exaltedly distinguish?
12180Is it because I was stung?
12180Is it not Belford, pray?
12180Is it not a little hard upon you, that these troubles should fall so thick to your lot?
12180Is it not because the latter allow themselves in any liberty, in order to carry a point?
12180Is it not just language?
12180Is it you?
12180Is my cousin come?
12180Is she within?
12180It is such a horrid thing to think of, that a man who had lived in such strict terms of-- what shall I call it?
12180It may one day, who knows how soon?
12180It opened with the dying man''s asking him, with melancholy earnestness, if nothing-- if nothing at all could be done for him?
12180John hereupon put on a serious, and a less respectful face-- Sir, this house is mine; and-- And what, friend?
12180Joseph, what said John to thee?
12180Just 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?
12180Let me, therefore, know( if you please) whether you are willing to appear to do yourself, and us, and your sex, this justice?
12180Lord M. But what is all this, but more sacks upon the mill?
12180Lord M. What the devil canst thou mean?
12180Lord M.( interposing again, as we were both for going out,) And what will this do, gentlemen?
12180Mowbray whispered me, What is the cause, Bobby?--Shall I take the gentleman to task for thee, my boy?
12180Mowbray, is this acting like a friend by me, to suppose me incapable of answering for myself?
12180Mrs. 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?
12180Must 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?
12180Nor ought you take it amiss, if you rightly weigh the matter: For, Sir, whom does a lady want protection against but her injurers?
12180Now 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?
12180Now, Jack, what can a man make of all this?
12180Or how will injuries be believed to grieve us, that are never honourably complained of?
12180Poor Lovelace!----What a devil ails thee?
12180Pray, Sir, did she return an answer to this letter?
12180Really, Sir, you take-- Great liberties I hope you would not say, Mrs. Smith?
12180Shall I give thee a faint picture of the horrible uneasiness with which my mind struggles?
12180Shall I go up, and see if Miss Harlowe be there, Mrs. Smith?
12180Shall I, Madam, send my servant post with it?
12180She asked, with great serenity, where you were?
12180She is to send me a letter after she is in Heaven, is she?
12180She said, Whither can I go, Mrs. Lovick?
12180Should not every body that has any thing to bequeath make their will?
12180Sir, replied the good woman, who should controul her?
12180Sir?
12180Smith.--Why should you?
12180So, old acquaintance, how do you now?
12180Suppose you kill one another, will the matter be bettered or worsted by that?
12180Ten days?--A week?--How long, Sir?
12180The Colonel, as Mrs. Smith told me afterwards, asked with great impatience, the moment he alighted, how Miss Harlowe was?
12180The gin, the snare, the net, mean matrimony, I suppose-- But is it a crime in me to wish to marry her?
12180The man whom once I could have loved, I have been enabled to despise: And shall not charity complete my triumph?
12180The question is, if your life is not in the fellow''s power?
12180The remedy I propose is a severe one: But what pain can be more severe than the injury?
12180Then, why do good people take upon themselves to censure, as they do, persons less scrupulous than themselves?
12180These the poets liken to''enamelling''--have you not read in the poets of''enamelled meads,''and so forth?
12180This letter is very different from her preceding one!--You returned an answer to it, Mr. Lovelace?
12180This made a trifling affair important: And what was the issue?
12180Thou, perhaps, wilt ask, what honest man is obliged to keep his promise with a highwayman?
12180Was I right, as to the first, Jack?
12180We all remaining silent, the women having their aprons at their eyes, Why this concern for nothing at all?
12180Well, and Mr. Belford wrote me word that she was exceeding ill. How then can she be gone out?
12180Well, but my good dear Mrs. Smith, where is the lady gone?
12180Well, with all my heart, said I:''tis not for us tradesmen to be saucy-- Is it, Mrs. Smith?
12180What a devil will it signify talking, if thus you are to blow one another up at every word?
12180What a step has he made me take to avoid him!--Who can touch pitch, and not be defiled?
12180What can I say?--But why should not you know the truth?
12180What can it be, Bob.?
12180What canst earn a- day, man?
12180What could Belford do for him?
12180What could I say to an inference so fairly drawn?
12180What do you sell, Sir?
12180What makes you put this question?
12180What must I save you from?
12180What rooms have you to let?
12180What say you, Mrs. Smith, to this?
12180What signifies this transitory eclipse?
12180What will that do for me?
12180What 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?
12180What''s the matter, my Lord?
12180What, I wonder, has again happened between you and Mr. Hickman?
12180What, but, as we go along, a life of apprehension, sometimes for our friends, oftener for ourselves?
12180Where are they, if a customer shall come in?
12180Where is her servant?
12180Where is this new face?
12180Where, where?
12180Who could be otherwise?
12180Who could have believe there could be parents so implacable?
12180Who knows what may arise from his arrival?
12180Who knows, as it would have come from an associate, and of an associate, it might have affected him?
12180Who the devil could have expected such consequences as these?
12180Whom do you guess me to be?
12180Why so, Mrs. Smith?
12180Why so, Sir?
12180Why so, Sir?
12180Why will he wish to interrupt me in my duty?
12180Why will ye break a leaf driven to and fro?
12180Why will ye pursue the dry stubble?
12180Why will ye write bitter words against me, and make me possess the iniquities of my youth?
12180Why, O why was she not before willing?
12180Why, father Smith, thy wife is a wit, man!--Didst thou ever find that out before?--But where is widow Lovick, dame Smith?
12180Will neither vows nor prayers save her?
12180Will the lady be made happier or unhappier, do you think, by either or both of your deaths?
12180Wilt thou forgive my troubling thee with such visionary stuff?
12180Would any other woman think it so?
12180Wouldst thou think that this varlet Mowbray is sorry that I am so near being happy with Miss Harlowe?
12180You do n''t know, do you, Colonel, that Mr. Lovelace, at all our requests, is disposed to marry the lady?
12180You 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?
12180You do n''t tell me where she is?
12180You have a young lady lodges here; Miss Harlowe, Madam: Is she above?
12180You have seen what I wrote, no doubt?
12180You never saw me before, did you?
12180Your Lordship has been in Italy, I presume?
12180Your intimacy, Sir, with Mr. Lovelace, and( may I say?)
12180and when will she return?
12180do I want wash- balls?
12180do n''t be afraid-- How long, Sir?
12180for the Lord hath rewarded thee: And why?
12180how can it be?
12180how would they set off one another, and be adorned by the wearer!-- Go to the devil!--I will write!--Can I do anything else?
12180is your''s the new face?
12180more coals upon the fire?
12180or is she gone with Miss Harlowe too?
12180said I, where''s thy pruning- knife?
12180said I; save you from what?
12180said he, what''s here?
12180said he, with his hands and eyes lifted up, can I see her?
12180said she; how kindly are you concerned for me!--Who says I am friendless?
12180so thou wouldst, if thou hadst it on: but thou never wearest thy hat in thy wife''s presence, I believe; dost thou?
12180turning his head this way and that; horror in his countenance; Did you not see him?
12180what will he then think of the poor transitory gratifications of sense, which now engage all his attention?
12180whither 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?
11889A blessing for what, sister Clary?
11889A shower falling, as she spoke,''What,''said she, looking up,''do the elements weep for me?''
11889Again--''Whether she and one of her nieces Montague were to go to town, on an old chancery suit?''
11889Am I not worthy an answer, Miss Harlowe?
11889An honour worth a king''s ransom; and what I would give-- what would I not give?
11889And after all,( methinks thou asked,) art thou still resolved to repair, if reparation be put into thy power?
11889And art thou not about to reform!--Won''t this consent of minds between thee and the widow,[ what age is she, Jack?
11889And can not you say?
11889And 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?
11889And have I half the obligation to her, that à � neas had to the Queen of Carthage?
11889And how do you, Mr. Lovelace?
11889And 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?
11889And is it fair to punish me for what is my misfortune, and not my fault?
11889And 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?
11889And must I still wait the return of another messenger?
11889And 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?
11889And now, Lord, what is my hope?
11889And thou art a pretty fellow, art thou not?
11889And what must you be, to be able to look her in the face?
11889And what, returned he, shall be my inducement to take what I do at your hands?--Hay, Sir?
11889And when I came to that sentence, praying for my reformation, perhaps-- Is that there?
11889And whether that family would not exult over me, were I to marry their daughter, as if I dared not to do otherwise?
11889And who can be entitled to this power, if YOU are not?
11889And why should more be asked for me than I can partake of?
11889And why?
11889And will you be so good as to tell me, if I may have any hopes?
11889And wo n''t you take it?
11889And would not every one be able to assign the reason why Clarissa Harlowe chose solitude, and to sequester herself from the world?
11889And would not my conscious eye confess my fault, whether the eyes of others accused me or not?
11889And would you, my dear, in the like case[ whispering her] have yielded to entreaty-- would you have meant no more by the like exclamations?
11889And yet you care not, as I see, to leave the house.--And so, you wo n''t go down, Miss Harlowe?
11889Are you not-- are you not Mr. Belford, Sir?
11889At last, I say; for whose heart have I hitherto moved?
11889Ay, Mr. Hickman, that''s the question: I want to know if the lady says she had?
11889But can there be a stronger instance in point than what the unaccountable resentments of such a lady as Miss Clarissa Harlowe afford us?
11889But canst thou suppose that this admirable woman is not all, is not every thing with me?
11889But dost thou not observe, what a strange, what an uncommon openness of heart reigns in this lady?
11889But have you no things to send for from thence?
11889But how does she know what love, in its flaming ardour, will stimulate men to do?
11889But how much must I write for?
11889But in that, must I not now sit brooding over my past afflictions, and mourning my faults till the hour of my release?
11889But now, what is to be the end of this disgraceful violence?
11889But recovering herself, Very well, said she-- why should not all be of a piece?--Why should not my wretchedness be complete?
11889But 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?
11889But what have you farther heard?
11889But what thinkest thou is the second request she had to make to me?
11889But who can supplant her?
11889But who would spare so very absurd a wrong- head, as should bestow tinsel to make his deformity the more conspicuous?
11889But why run I into length to such a poor thing?
11889But why so?
11889But why, said I, out of danger?--When can this be justly said of creatures, who hold by so uncertain a tenure?
11889But you say there is a third thing you blame the lady for: May I ask what that is?
11889But, Sir, had not the lady something given her to make her sleep?
11889But, Sir, if there be any truth in the story, what is he?
11889But, after all, it would be very whimsical, would it not, if all my plots and contrivances should end in wedlock?
11889But, after your letter, what can be said?
11889But, as you say, whom has it moved, that you wished to move?
11889But, dear Madam, why wo n''t you send to your lodgings?
11889But, in the letter you have, does she, without reserve, express her contrition?
11889But, was that the case?
11889Can I help her implacable spirit?
11889Can 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?
11889Can it be?
11889Can nobody, joined in another gentleman, be applied to, who will see that so fine a creature is not ill used?
11889Can she be any man''s but mine?
11889Can there be any atonement for her crime?
11889Can they by it purchase a sponge that will wipe out from the year the past fatal four months of my life?
11889Canst 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?
11889Charlotte asked if I did not still seem inclinable to do the lady justice, if she would accept of me?
11889Cot- 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?
11889Could I ever have thought that my doting- piece, as every one called you, would have done thus?
11889Dear 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?
11889Did ever comedy end more happily than this long trial?
11889Did the two ladies tell you who the gentleman was?--Or, did they say any more on the subject?
11889Do you come hither to persuade me to hate prudery, as you call it, as much as you do?
11889Do you flatter me, Sir?
11889Do you think you are to stay here as long as you live?
11889Do you use spectacles, Mr. Hickman?
11889Does this not show, that revenge has very little sway in her mind; though she can retain so much proper resentment?
11889Dost think she is not a little touched at times?
11889Excuse 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?
11889For who is it that would not give these two admirable persons to each other, were not his morals an objection?
11889Had she any money about her?
11889Has she in it no reflecting hints?
11889Have you heard of him?
11889Have you seen it, Sir?
11889He then turned to my mother, resolved to be even with her too: Where, good Madam, could Miss Howe get all this spirit?
11889Her late husband could not stand in the matrimonial contention of Who should?
11889Hickman!--Who can account for the workings and ways of a passionate and offended woman?
11889His whole broad face lifted up at me: Spectacles!--What makes you ask me such a question?
11889How came it over with you?
11889How did she like the people of the house?
11889How is it possible to imagine, that a woman, who has all these consolations to reflect upon, will die of a broken heart?
11889I am surprised, Sir!----Then, after all, you do n''t think of marrying Miss Harlowe!----After the hard usage---- What hard usage, Mr. Hickman?
11889I asked, if they thought the Harlowes deserved any consideration from me?
11889I hope, Mr. Hickman, nobody questions mine neither?
11889I 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?
11889I 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?
11889I think your name is Belford?
11889If she would give herself these airs in his life- time, what would she attempt to do after his death?
11889Indeed, I wish they had thought fit to take other measures with me: But who shall judge for them?
11889Is it not better that you make it up?
11889Is it not enough to be despised and rejected?
11889Is it possible she can do herself, her family, her friends, so much justice any other way, as by marrying me?
11889Is not my condition greatly mended?
11889Is your name Clarissa Harlowe, Madam?
11889It seems she was at first displeased; yet withdrew her objection: but, after a pause, asked them, What she should do?
11889Ladies 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?
11889Lady S.| Ay, Sir, what say you to this?
11889Let me know what you have heard, Mr. Hickman?
11889Lord M. What say you, Sir, to this?
11889Miss D''Oily, upon his complimenting her, among a knot of ladies, asked him, in their hearing, how Miss Clarissa Harlowe did?
11889Miss SALLY ANDERSON,[ You have heard of her, no doubt?]
11889More than is absolutely necessary for my own peace?
11889Moreover, has she it not in her power to disappoint, as much as she has been disappointed?
11889My 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?
11889My 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?
11889O wretches; what a sex is your''s!--Have you all one dialect?
11889Only, as these consequences follow one another so closely, while they are new, how can I help being anew affected?
11889Or will she be here?
11889Pray read on, my Lord-- I told you how you would all admire her----or, shall I read?
11889Prison, friend!--What dost thou call thy house?
11889Prisoner, Sirs!--What-- How-- Why-- What have I done?
11889She asked how long it would be before they returned?
11889She asked if Mabell should attend her, till it were seen what her friends would do for her in discharge of the debt?
11889She asked if they knew Mr. Lovelace?
11889She asked, what was meant by this usage of her?
11889She seems to be a person of condition; and, ill as she is, a very fine woman.----A single lady, I presume?
11889She then spied thy villain-- O thou wretch, said she, where is thy vile master?--Am I again to be his prisoner?
11889Should I not have had a bill delivered me?
11889Should there not?
11889Should you like to be at liberty?
11889The divine Clarissa, Lovelace,--reduced to rejoice for a cup of cold water!--By whom reduced?
11889The latter placing a confidence, the former none, in her man?--Then, whom else have I robbed?
11889The 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?
11889Their 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?
11889Then there are broad freedoms( shall I call them?)
11889Then turning to the officer, Mr. Rowland I think your name is?
11889Then who can write of good persons, and of good subjects, and be capable of admiring them, and not be made serious for the time?
11889Then, if it were, Mr. Hickman, you think she would?
11889There is a widow who lodges in it[ have I not said so formerly?]
11889There, Jack!--Wilt thou, or wilt thou not, take this for a letter?
11889This looks like conscience; do n''t it, Belford?
11889This will save thy word; and, as to mine, can she think worse of me than she does at present?
11889Thou toldest me, that my punishments were but beginning-- Canst thou, O fatal prognosticator, cans thou tell me, where they will end?
11889Unthinking 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?
11889Was not her sin committed equally against warning and the light of her own knowledge?
11889Was she not a prisoner?
11889Was that the case?
11889Was the Doctor my friend?
11889We are told he would be glad to marry you: But why, then, did he abandon you?
11889Well, Madam, said I, with as much philosophy as I could assume; and may I ask-- Pray, what was your Ladyship''s answer?
11889Well, Madam; and pray, may I be favoured with the lady''s other letter?
11889Well, Sir, and I suppose what you have to charge me with is, that I was desirous to have all that, without marriage?
11889Well, Sir, and you have no objections to marriage, I presume, as the condition of that reconciliation?
11889Well, but after all, what need of her history to these women?
11889Well, but, Miss Harlowe, cried Sally, do you think these forlorn airs pretty?
11889Were it but in kindness to the people?
11889Were they civil to her?
11889What a punishment should this come out to be, upon myself too, that all this while I have been plundering my own treasury?
11889What a shame to talk at this rate!--Did the lady set up a contention with you?
11889What child could die in peace under a parent''s curse?
11889What could I have done with her in any other place?
11889What do you take our opinion of happiness to be?
11889What friends has the lady?
11889What has the lady said?
11889What have I to do with the world?
11889What heart, thinkest thou, can I have to write, when I have lost the only subject worth writing upon?
11889What is it she scruples, Mr. Hickman?
11889What is the light, what the air, what the town, what the country, what''s any thing, without thee?
11889What is the sum?
11889What once a woman hopes, in love matters, she always hopes, while there is room for hope: And are we not both single?
11889What reasons have you to fear this, Sir?
11889What signifies what the potations were, when the same end was in view?
11889What, Sir, said she, can I do?
11889What, pray, have you farther heard?
11889When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise?
11889When will the night be gone?
11889Where is that?
11889Wherefore is light given to her that is in misery; and life unto the bitter in soul?
11889Who 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?
11889Who can be admitted to a place in it after Miss Clarissa Harlowe?
11889Who does?
11889Who ever said an anchoret was poor?
11889Who longeth for death; but it cometh not; and diggeth for it more than for hid treasures?
11889Who will ridicule a personal imperfection in one that seems conscious, that it is an imperfection?
11889Whom else have I injured?
11889Why is light given to one whose way is hid; and whom God hath hedged in?
11889Why may not handsome fellows, thought I, like to be looked at, as well as handsome wenches?
11889Why now, Cousin Charlotte, chucking her under the chin, would you have me tell you all that has passed between the lady and me?
11889Why then should it not be the pious Lovelace, as well as the pious à � neas?
11889Why then, they asked, would she not write to her friends, to pay Mrs. Sinclair''s demand?
11889Why these double locks and bolts all on the outside, none on the in?
11889Why these iron- barred windows, then?
11889Why wo n''t you send to your lodgings for linen, at least?
11889Why, indeed, the people did not prove so good as they should be.--What farther have you heard?
11889Why, you do n''t think of tarrying here always?
11889Will I be any woman''s but her''s?
11889Will Miss Howe permit me to explain myself in person to her, Mr. Hickman?
11889Will not Mrs. Sinclair, proceeded she, think my clothes a security, till they can be sold?
11889Will this, Mr. Hickman, answer any part of the intention of this visit?
11889Will you give me leave, my dear, to close this subject with one remark?
11889Will you not write to any of your friends?
11889Will you then, Sir, compel me to be beholden to you?
11889Wo n''t it strike out an intimacy between ye, that may enable thee to gratify me in this particular?
11889Words are wind; but deeds are mind: What signifies your cursed quibbling, Bob?--Say plainly, if she will have you, will you have her?
11889Would I not repair the evils I have made her suffer?''
11889Would I pretend to say, I would now marry the lady, if she would have me?
11889Would not the look of every creature, who beheld me, appear as a reproach to me?
11889Would she accept of any money?
11889Would the pious à � neas, thinkest thou, have done such a piece of justice by Dido, had she lived?
11889Would you have me and Miss Horton dine in this filthy bed- room?
11889Yes, 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?
11889Yet do not honest protestants pronounce her pious too?--And call her particularly their Queen?
11889Yet to forbid you to love the dear naughty creature, who can?
11889You amaze me, Miss Martin!--What language do you talk in?--Bilk my lodgings?--What is that?
11889You say her heart is half- broken: Is it to be wondered at?
11889You see, Mr. Hickman, something of me.--Do you think I am in jest, or in earnest?
11889You 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?
11889You would therefore heighten their severity, and make yourself enemies besides, if you were to come to me-- Don''t you see you would?
11889Zounds, Jack, what shall I do now?
11889and could the cursed devils of her own sex, who visited this suffering angel, see her, and leave her, in so d----d a nook?
11889and 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?
11889and 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?''
11889and to refuse admittance to those I like not?
11889and would I not have re- instated myself in her favour upon her own terms, if I could?
11889and,''Whether they brought to town from thence the young creature whom they visited?''
11889can you truly say that he is?
11889for can they by their pity restore to me my lost reputation?
11889for so long a time as you were at Mrs. Sinclair''s?
11889had she those tricks already?
11889men, what mean you?
11889of encouraging another lover?
11889to engage to transcribe for her some parts of my letters written to thee in confidence?
11889was it not, my dear?
11889what a fine time of it would the heads of families have?
11889what would become of the peace of the world, if all women should take it into their heads to follow her example?
11889why didst thou not urge her to explain what she once hoped?
11889why push I so weak an adversary?
11889with 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?
9296A value that can have no merit with the unhappy object of it, because it is attended with effects so grievous to her?
9296A 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?
9296Again interrupted!--Am I to be questioned, and argued with?
9296Am not I to live with the man?
9296And do they not make use of your own generosity to oppress you?
9296And even in this point you must be mistaken: For, would a prudent man wish to marry one who has not a heart to give?
9296And have I any encouragement to follow too implicitly the example which my mother sets of meekness, and resignedness to the wills of others?
9296And have you not before now said, that nothing is so penetrating as the eye of a lover who has vanity?
9296And hence, Sir, retorted I, your unbrotherly reflections upon me?
9296And how shall I look upon my awful judges?
9296And how was this to be done, after such a declaration from both my uncles?
9296And is it not your right?
9296And is it you?
9296And now, my dear, let me ask you, Have I come up to your expectation?
9296And so I will, said she-- Did you not bewitch my grandfather?
9296And so in the royal style( for am I not likely to be thy king and thy emperor in the great affair before us?)
9296And so, Clary, it is nothing to him, or to me, is it, that our sister shall disgrace her whole family?
9296And this, said I, is all I have to hope for from my Mamma?
9296And what less did the world think of me now, he asked, than that I was confined that I might not?
9296And what my motive, dost thou ask?
9296And what was this, more than I had offered before?
9296And what, Clary, mean you by that?
9296And when that reason offers, is it not just to express one''s self accordingly?
9296And while he has any, can we be easy or free from his insults?
9296And who says Lovelace wants vanity?
9296And who, besides, can bear to be made the dupe of such low cunning, operating with such high and arrogant passions?
9296And why do n''t you go on, Clary?
9296And why may I not think that I am now put upon a proper exercise of it?
9296And why was it, do you think?
9296And why?
9296And will you give up nothing?
9296And yet, my dear, this may be his usual manner of behaviour to our sex; for had not my sister at first all his reverence?
9296And 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?
9296Are you in earnest?
9296As to your question, Why your elder sister may not be first provided for?
9296At last, I asked, if it were his pleasure that I should pour him out another dish?
9296At worst, will he confine me prisoner to my chamber?
9296Ay, Clary, put in my sister, what say you to Mr. Wyerley?
9296Bless me, said I to myself, what a sister have I!--How have I deserved this?
9296But I more wonder, how he came to have a notion of meeting me in this place?
9296But 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?
9296But are not these orders a tacit confession, that they think his own merit will not procure him respect?
9296But can it be, that such a lady, such a sister, such a wife, such a mother, has no influence in her own family?
9296But do you think I will rob my sister of her humble servant?
9296But does he not avow his passion?
9296But how can you expect, when there must be a concession on one side, that it should be on theirs?
9296But if I could not, how can you expect to prevail?
9296But 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?
9296But is it not a sad thing, I repeat, to be obliged to stand in opposition to the will of such a mother?
9296But 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?
9296But 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?
9296But pray, is not this estate our estate, as we may say?
9296But supposing it to be true that all his vacant nightly hours are employed in writing, what can be his subjects?
9296But that it could be for Solmes, how should it enter into my head?
9296But then recollecting myself, is there not more in it, said I, than the result of a vein so naturally lively?
9296But 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?
9296But was it not a little hard upon me, to be kept from blazing on a Sunday?--And to be hindered from my charitable ostentations?
9296But what call you dutiful?
9296But what is person, Clary, with one of your prudence, and your heart disengaged?
9296But what shall I do with this Lovelace?
9296But what then can I plead for a palliation to myself of my mother''s sufferings on my account?
9296But where is Hannah?
9296But whither roves my pen?
9296But who can be worthy of a Clarissa?
9296But whoever was in fault, self being judge?
9296But will it be just, will it be honest, to marry a man I can not endure?
9296But will not t''other man flame out, and roar most horribly, upon the snatching from his paws a prey he thought himself sure of?
9296But''tis a cursed deceiver; for it has many a time imposed upon its master-- Master, did I say?
9296But, Sir, if I am prepossessed, what has Mr. Solmes to hope for?--Why should he persevere?
9296But, 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?
9296But, to pass that by-- so much engaged!--How much, my dear?--Shall I infer?
9296But, 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?
9296Can I be honest, if I give a hope that I can not confirm?
9296Can not I speak with the poor girl?
9296Can you think such usage, and to such a young lady, is to be borne?
9296Can you wonder, then, that they should embrace the first opportunity that offered, to endeavour to bring you down to their level?
9296Contrive it, did I say?
9296Could any thing be pleasing to him, that you did not say or do?
9296Could you, my dear, have shewn more spirit?
9296Did not this deserve a severe return?
9296Did not your father himself some days ago tell you, he would be obeyed?
9296Did you think I could scold, my dear?
9296Do 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?
9296Do n''t you remember how he stared at the following trite observations, which every moralist could have furnished him with?
9296Do you hear, sister Clary?
9296Do you justify duelling at all?
9296Do you so understand the license you have, Miss?
9296Do you think they can use you worse than they do?
9296Does he believe, that the disgrace which I supper on his account, will give him a merit with me?
9296Does not his own sister live unhappily, for want of a little of his superfluities?
9296Does that( pert cousin) make it out that he does not love you?
9296Dreadful alternative-- But is not my sincerity, is not the integrity of my heart, concerned in the answer?
9296For did you ever give up any thing?
9296For me, do you mean, Clary?
9296For must not each of you, by the constitutions of your family, marry to be still richer?
9296Have I not made a very fair proposal as to Mr. Lovelace?
9296Have I not told you there is no receding; that the honour as well as the interest of the family is concerned?
9296Have we not all an interest in it, and a prior right, if right were to have taken place?
9296Have you not refused as many as have been offered to you?
9296Have you the least doubt about what must be the issue of this correspondence, if continued?
9296He an honest man?
9296He is allowed to be brave: Who ever knew a brave man, if a brave man of sense, an universally base man?
9296His a good mind, Madam?
9296How can I tell it you?
9296How can you tell me your heart is free?
9296How can your Anna Howe have such a thought?--What then shall we call it?
9296How comes this man to know so well all our foibles?
9296How dare a perverse girl take these liberties with relations so very respectable, and whom she highly respects?
9296How many hours in the twenty- four do you devote to your needle?
9296How many to letter- writing?
9296How many to your prayers?
9296How shall I stand the questions of some, the set surliness of others, the returning love of one or two?
9296How so, I asked him, when that can not wound without the application?
9296How then can she be so impenetrable?
9296I am afraid you will condemn my warmth: But does not the occasion require it?
9296I asked her once, if she were pleased with the tea?
9296I asked him, If he valued himself upon having a head better turned than theirs for such works, as he called them?
9296I besought her to stay: One favour, but one favour, dearest Madam, said I, give me leave to beg of you-- What would the girl?
9296I made no reply; for what could I say?
9296I 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?
9296I was moving to go up-- And will you go up, Clary?
9296I went on, supplicating for my mother''s favourable report: Nothing but invincible dislike, said I-- What would the girl be at, interrupted my mother?
9296If it were, to whom could I appeal with effect against a husband?
9296If you do, Madam, can you think confinement and ill usage is the way to prevent the apprehended rashness?
9296If 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?
9296If your estate is convenient for him, what then?
9296Is any body else?
9296Is it you, my meek sister Clary?
9296Is my presence an exception to the bold creature?
9296Is she not for ever obliged( as she was pleased to hint to me) to be of the forbearing side?
9296Is the want of reward, or the want even of a grateful acknowledgement, a reason for us to dispense with what we think our duty?
9296It 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?
9296It was rather a mark of his affection, than any advantage to me: For, do I either seek or wish to be independent?
9296It would be an affront to your own judgment, if you did not: For do you not ask my advice?
9296Let me ask you, child, if you will give your pretty proposal in writing?
9296May 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?''
9296May I not see the honest creature, and pay her her wages?
9296May I, Madam, be permitted to expostulate?-- To what purpose expostulate with me, Clarissa?
9296May not my everlasting happiness be the sacrifice?
9296May not this strange method rather harden than convince?
9296May not, however, so deep a sufferer be permitted to speak out?
9296My extravagancies, Bella!--But did my father ever give me any thing he did not give you?
9296No, not to Miss Howe, Madam, tauntingly: for have you not acknowledged, that Lovelace is a favourite there?
9296Norton!--[You may guess who said this] Will she, or will she not, comply with her parents''will?
9296Not to Miss Howe?
9296Now seest thou not, how many good ends this contrivance answers?
9296O Madam, what can I say to questions so indulgently put?
9296O 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?
9296Pray, 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?
9296Pretty mopsy- eyed soul!--was her expression!--And was it willing to think it had still a brother and sister?
9296Shall I conduct your Ladyship down?
9296Shall I not therefore be allowed to judge for myself, whether I can, or can not, live happily with him?
9296Shall I, Clary, said she, shall I tell your father that these prohibitions are as unnecessary as I hoped they would be?
9296She asked me, upon my turning from her, if she should not say any thing below of my compliances?
9296She desired to be informed, in the name of every body, was her word, what I was determined upon?
9296She 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?
9296She, kindly saluting me, said, Why this distance to your aunt, my dear, who loves you so well?
9296Should it be ever so unhappily, will it be prudence to complain or appeal?
9296Should not one fly the man who is but suspected of such a one?
9296Should not they make a common cause of it, as I may say, a cause of sex, on such occasions as the present?
9296So I shall suffer: And in what will the rash man have benefited himself, or mended his prospects?
9296So turning from me, she spoke with quickness, Whither now, Clary Harlowe?
9296So we think, whatever you think: and whose thoughts are to be preferred?
9296Solmes?--Rather than give me hope?
9296Solmes?--Will not that refusal be to give him hope?
9296Tell me why you call it a reflection?--What did I say?
9296Tell me, Bella, if my mamma will condescend to see me?
9296Tell me, Clary, and tell me truly-- Do you not continue to correspond with Mr. Lovelace?
9296That you know your duty, and will not offer to controvert his will?
9296The good woman asked, Whether she was permitted to expostulate with them upon the occasion, before she came up to me?
9296The object so meritorious, who can doubt the reality of his professions?
9296Then addressing himself to me: And how do you find it, Miss?
9296Then he will always be in expectation while you are single: and we are to live on at this rate( are we?)
9296Then you do n''t think him so?
9296This was not ungenerously said: But what will not these men say to obtain belief, and a power over one?
9296Thou art a provoking creature-- But what say you to two or three duels of that wretch''s?
9296Thou art curious to know, if I have not started a new game?
9296Thus 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?
9296Was not this very intimidating, my dear?
9296Was not this very spiteful, my dear?
9296We all, indeed, once thought your temper soft and amiable: but why was it?
9296Well but, methinks you say, what is all this to the purpose?
9296Were 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?
9296What a name have you got, at a less expense?
9296What an unhappy situation is that which obliges her, in her own defence as it were, to expose their failings?
9296What can I do, Madam?--What can I do?
9296What can I do?
9296What can I say?
9296What could I do but weep?
9296What did I think of Mr. Wyerley?
9296What did you do, that we did not endeavour to do?--And what was all this for?
9296What encouragement for duty is this?--Have I not loved her as well as ever you did?
9296What excuse can be made for his haughty and morose temper?
9296What is the matter with Hannah?
9296What is to follow?
9296What must have been her treatment, to be thus subjugated, as I may call it?
9296What must that cause be that will not bear being argued upon?
9296What must we think of any one of it, who would not promote the good of the whole?
9296What reason then, ungenerous girl, can you have for arguing with me thus, but because you think from my indulgence to you, you may?
9296What say you, my love?
9296What shall I get by it, let things go as they will?
9296What then is this narrow selfishness that reigns in us, but relationship remembered against relationship forgot?
9296What think you was the return?
9296What tho''his mighty soul his grief contains?
9296What will he say to it?
9296What would you say, were I to treat you as Miss Harlowe''s father and mother treat her?
9296What''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?
9296What, Madam, to give him hope?--To give hope to Mr. Solmes?
9296What, Miss, will you please to have for breakfast?
9296What, but ringing my changes upon the same bells, and neither receding nor advancing one tittle?
9296What, is this you?
9296What, my dear, if her meekness should not be rewarded?
9296What, think you, makes me bear Hickman near me, but that the man is humble, and knows and keeps his distance?
9296When I returned, my uncle Antony asked me, how I should like Mr. Lovelace?
9296When 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?
9296When 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?
9296Who can command or foresee events?
9296Who can not esteem him?
9296Who told you Mr. Solmes can not read and write?
9296Who, indeed, as you say, if this be so, would marry, that can live single?
9296Who, that has once trespassed with them, ever recovered his virtue?
9296Why not?
9296Why should I be deprived of all comfort, but that which the hope that it would be a very short one, would afford me?
9296Why should not there be something in blood in the human creature, as well as in the ignobler animals?
9296Why will these wise parents, by saying too much against the persons they dislike, put one upon defending them?
9296Why, I pray you, good Sir, should I be made miserable for life?
9296Why, 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?
9296Why, as I often say to myself, was such a man as this Solmes fixed upon?
9296Will he bear, do you think, to be thus dialogued with?
9296Will he deny me the visits of my dearest friend, and forbid me to correspond with her?
9296Will he set a servant over me, with license to insult me?
9296Will he take from me the mistressly management, which I had not faultily discharged?
9296Will not the least shadow of the hope you just now demanded from me, be driven into absolute and sudden certainty?
9296Will not what I have offered be accepted?
9296Will she, or will she not, be Mrs. Solmes?
9296Will 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?
9296Will you go down, and humble that stubborn spirit of yours to your mamma?
9296Would you have me, Madam, make him desperate?
9296Wyerley''s again?--or whose?
9296Yet tell me, are your affections engaged to this man?
9296Yet what did you say, that we could not have said?
9296Yet why should Shorey( except officiously to please her principals) make a report in his disfavour?
9296You are going to question me, I suppose, why your sister is not thought of for Mr. Solmes?
9296You ask, Why may not your brother be first engaged in wedlock?
9296You know your father has made it a point; and did he ever give up one he thought he had a right to carry?
9296Your 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?
9296let me repeat: Is that a small point, my dear Uncle, to give up?
9296my love!--But what shall we do about the terms Mr. Solmes offers?
9296not vouchsafe to answer me?
9296repeated my aunt-- So, Miss Clary, I see how it is-- I will go down--[Miss Harlowe, shall I follow you?]
9296that gave it you before us all?--Well then, ought we not to have a choice who shall have it in marriage with you?
9296turn your back upon me too!--Shall I bring up your mamma to you, love?
9296when I love you, as never woman loved another?
9296when your concerns are my concerns?
9296when your honour is my honour?
9296who 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?
9798A little interruption.--What is breakfast to the subject I am upon?
9798ANGRY!--What should I be angry for?
9798After what I had resolved upon, as by my former, what shall I write?
9798All this violence from you, Miss Clary?
9798And am I to appear before them all?
9798And from whom arises that subject, I pray you?
9798And has he not promised temper and acquiescence, on the supposition of a change in my mind?
9798And have I, but on your account, reason to value what they think?
9798And how do you now, Mr. Hickman?
9798And how must this insolence of his, aggravated as my brother is able to aggravate it, exasperate them against me?
9798And if not, whether she should not marry him as soon as possible?
9798And if not,''Whether I should not marry him as soon as possible?''
9798And if not,''Whether you should not marry him as soon as possible?''
9798And is a brother, an only brother, of so little consideration with you, as this comes to?
9798And is it worthy of your generosity[ I ask you, my dear, is it?]
9798And know you any of the particulars of those sad stories?
9798And my brother''s insolent question comes frequently in, Whether I am not writing a history of my sufferings?
9798And now, my dear, how is it with you?
9798And now, my dear, what shall I conclude upon?
9798And tell me, what argument can you urge, that this true declaration answers not before- hand?
9798And then he fared the better from her, as he always does, for faring worse from me: for there was, How do you now, Sir?
9798And this is your answer, Niece?
9798And 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?
9798And what concession she had gained from her dear child to merit this tenderness?
9798And what must that child be, who prefers the rake to a father?
9798And what need you care?
9798And what occasion for the promise, if he had not faults, and those very great ones, to reform?
9798And what then, Brother?
9798And what workman will throw away a sharp tool, because it may cut his fingers?
9798And when you are so well entitled to give them?
9798And who knows but they may have a still earlier day in their intention, than that which will too soon come?
9798And why do they blame her?--Why?
9798And will the pious Clarissa fib to her mamma?
9798And would not you bear with her?--Don''t you love her( what though with another sort of love?)
9798And would you not wish me to judge of your love for her by my own?
9798And 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?
9798And yet is there any other way than to do as I have done, if I would avoid Solmes?
9798And 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?
9798And, besides, can any thing worse be said of Mr. Lovelace, than I have heard said for several months past?
9798And, 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?
9798And, pray, do n''t I bear a great deal from her?--And why?
9798And, rally me as you will, pray tell me fairly, my dear, would it not have had such an effect upon you?
9798And, 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?
9798Are you, who refuse ever body''s advice, to prescribe a husband to your sister?
9798As how, Betty?
9798As how, Miss Dolly?--Did she not explain herself?--As how, my dear?
9798As it was-- Sir, said I, saw you not some of the servants?--Could not one of them have come in before you?
9798At his going away-- How can I leave you here by yourself, my dear?
9798At last, I asked him, if it were not thought strange I should be so long absent from church?
9798At my expense?--At the price of all my happiness, Sir?
9798Besides, What discredit have I to fear by such a step?
9798Besides, did I not reserve a power of receding, as I saw fit?
9798But for that, I know not what I might do: For who can tell what will come next?
9798But how can we resolve to see you?
9798But if a boisterous temper, when under obligation, is to be thus allowed for, what, when the tables are turned, will it expect?
9798But is not hers the disgrace, more than yours?
9798But is there not more danger from a sharp tool than from a blunt one?
9798But let this be as it will, shall I tell you, how, after all his offences, he may creep in with you again?
9798But tell me, if you can, Is it resolved that I shall be carried to my uncle Antony''s on Thursday?
9798But what a giddy creature shall I be thought, if I pursue the course to which this letter must lead me?
9798But what can be said in the case of an aversion so perfectly sincere?
9798But what condescensions, even from my father, can induce me to make such a sacrifice as is expected from me?
9798But what is the other, Madam?
9798But what would you have said at EIGHTEEN, is the question?
9798But when she was asked, What concession she had brought you to?
9798But who knows what may be the result of my being carried to my uncle Antony''s?
9798But 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?
9798But why should I, who have such real evils to contend with, regard imaginary ones?
9798But why should you, by the nobleness of your mind, throw reproaches upon the rest of the world?
9798But will it not exasperate he more against me?
9798But will you receive, shall you be permitted to receive my letters, after what I have done?
9798But would you expect favours, and grant none?
9798But you tell me, that, in order to gain time, I must palliate; that I must seem to compromise with my friends: But how palliate?
9798But, after all, should I, ought I to meet him?
9798But, how, on this revocation of my appointment, shall I be able to pacify him?
9798But, if it be a rash thing,[ returned she,] should she do it?
9798By whom, Betty?
9798By whose order?
9798Can not such purity in pursuit, in view, restrain him?
9798Can nothing be thought of?
9798Can you stand his displeasure, on first seeing the dear creature who has given him and all of us so much disturbance?
9798Did he learn this infamous practice of corrupting the servants of other families at the French court, where he resided a good while?
9798Did you ever hear of such perverseness, Madam?
9798Do n''t they already think that your non- compliance with their odious measures is owing a good deal to my advice?
9798Do n''t you know where it is written, That soft answers turn away wrath?
9798Do n''t you see how crooked some of my lines are?
9798Do n''t you see, my dear Miss Howe, how they are all determined?--Have I not reason to dread next Tuesday?
9798Do not use those freedoms naturally arise from the subject before us?
9798Do the servants, who, as you observe, see her skittish airs, disrespect you for them?
9798Do they not act in character?--And to whom?
9798Do they not, at such times, look concerned for you?
9798Do you beat me, Bella?
9798Do you call this beating you?
9798Do you then please that I shall hear it?
9798Do you think I could not be permitted to tarry one week longer?
9798Does it not, moreover, manifest a firmness of mind, in an unhappy person, to keep hope alive?
9798Does she suspect that your fervent friendship may lead you to a small indiscretion?
9798Does 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?
9798Either, said she, the lady must be thought to have very violent inclinations[ And what nice young creature would have that supposed?]
9798For God''s sake, what, Sir?--How came God''s sake, and your sake, I pray you, to be the same?
9798For have I given the man encouragement sufficient to ground these threats upon?
9798For 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?
9798For see you not how irresistible the waves of affliction come tumbling down upon me?
9798Go 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?
9798Has what he has said of me, Madam, convinced you of Mr. Lovelace''s baseness?
9798Have I, do you think, a desire to double and treble my own fault in the eye of the world?
9798Have I, or have I not, suffered or borne enough?
9798Have they not prohibited our correspondence upon that very surmise?
9798Have you any thing you are afraid should be seen by your mother?
9798Have you no eyes for this side of the chariot?
9798Have you no new fetch for your uncle Antony?
9798Have you not a Thomas a Kempis, Sister?
9798How 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?
9798How can I tell, Miss?
9798How can we, when you are resolved not to do what we are resolved you shall do?
9798How can you be so unmoved yourself, yet so able to move every body else?
9798How can you say advanced?
9798How could I avoid making these strong declarations, the man in presence?
9798How could you send such a letter to Mr. Solmes?
9798How do you now, as my mother says to Mr. Hickman, when her pert daughter has made him look sorrowful?
9798How much easier to bear the temporary persecutions I labour under, because temporary, than to resolve to be such a man''s for life?
9798How often, my dear, have you and I endeavoured to detect and censure this partial spirit in others?
9798How seem to compromise?
9798How shall I bear to hear such a creature talk of love to me?
9798How shall I know that?
9798How shall those beauties be valued, which can not be comprehended?
9798How they all gazed upon one another!--But could I be less peremptory before the man?
9798I asked if this was her own insolence, or her young mistress''s observation?
9798I asked my aunt, If it were necessary, that the gentleman should be present?
9798I asked what she would do, were she in my case?
9798I believe he is, Miss-- Would you have him sent for back?
9798I put it to her, in the most earnest manner, to tell me, whether I might not obtain the favour of a fortnight''s respite?
9798I think they seemed to be moving when Mr. Solmes gave me his orders.--But what answer shall I carry to the''squire?
9798I 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?
9798I to purchase their happiness by the forfeiture of my own?
9798I will hear all that I am to hear; that it may be over now and for ever.--You will go with me, Betty?
9798If I could, did I say?
9798If 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?
9798If persons pretending to principle, bear not their testimony against unprincipled actions, what check can they have?
9798If she be foolish-- what is that owing to?--Is it not to her wit?
9798If the world is unjust or rash, in one man''s case, why may it not be so in another''s?
9798If, 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?
9798In short, to make my sake God''s sake, in the sense of Mr. Solmes''s pitiful plea to me?
9798In 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?
9798Is Mr. Solmes gone, Betty?
9798Is it such a mighty matter for a young woman to give up her inclinations to oblige her friends?
9798Is 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?
9798Is not this usage enough to provoke a rashness never before thought of?
9798Is there, however, no medium?
9798It begins thus: Honoured Sir-- I beg your pardon, Sir, said I: but what, pray, is the intent of reading this letter to me?
9798It 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?
9798It will be farther tried; of that I am convinced; and what will be their next measure, who can divine?
9798LOVELACE?''
9798LOVELACE?''
9798Let me ask you, If something would have been done, had you been more gently used, than you seem to think you have been?
9798Madam!--How long are we to be at this distance, Clary?
9798Madam, and shaking your head so significantly?
9798Must I not be his, whatever,( on seeing him in a nearer light,) I should find him out to be?
9798Must I, my sweet Cousin?
9798My aunt looked in first; O my dear, said she, are you there?
9798My friends themselves, he says, expect that I will do myself what he calls, this justice: why else do they confine me?
9798My uncle came to me, looking up also to my face, and down to my feet: and is it possible this can be you?
9798Now it is, Why, Miss, do n''t you look up your things?
9798O my beloved creature!--But are not your very excuses confessions of excuses inexcusable?
9798Or shall I embark for Leghorn in my way to my cousin?
9798Pardon 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?
9798Questions whether she will not rather choose to go off with one of her own sex than with Lovelace?
9798See you not in her passiveness, what boisterous spirits can obtain from gentler, merely by teasing and ill- nature?
9798Shall I be a pedant, Miss, for this word?
9798Shall I tell you some of the matters charged against him?--shall I, my dear?
9798Shall I tell you-- but why should I?
9798She loves dearly to have weddings go forward!--Who knows, whose turn will be next?
9798She took notice of them-- Why these sighs, why these heavings here?
9798Solmes, why stand you thus humbly?--Why this distance, man?
9798Some 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?
9798Surely a week would?
9798That the greater their own cowardice, as it would be called in a man, the greater is their delight in subjects of heroism?
9798The ardour with which he vows and promises, I think the heart only can dictate: how else can one guess at a man''s heart?
9798The most admired of our moderns know nothing of this art: Why?
9798The vein is opened-- Shall I let it flow?
9798Then let not Mr. Solmes stay.--Why hold you me thus?
9798Then turning to my uncle, Do you hear, Sir?
9798They wo n''t kill me?
9798This makes me half- afraid to ask you, if you think you are not too cruel, too ungenerous shall I say?
9798This then is the case: They entreat, they pray, they beg, they supplicate( will either of these do, Miss Clary?)
9798To 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?
9798Upon the whole, Madam, said I, can you say, that the inveteracy lies not as much on our side, as on his?
9798Violent girl, however, he called me-- Who, said he, who would have thought it of her?
9798Was I not finely beset, my dear?
9798Was this my spiteful construction?
9798Were I to comply, must I not leave my relations, and go to him?
9798What an honour would it be to him to have such a wife?
9798What are riches, what are settlements, to happiness?
9798What can I advise you to do, my noble creature?
9798What can I do, my dearest Aunt Hervey?
9798What can I do?
9798What can I do?
9798What detriment?
9798What have I done, that I must be banished and confined thus disgracefully?
9798What have I to do with these headstrong spirits?
9798What have you done?--What have you written?
9798What hopes can there be, that a lady will ever esteem, as a husband, the man, whom, as a lover, she despises?
9798What is it, he asks, that he has promised, but reformation by my example?
9798What is there in it, says she, that all this bustle is about?
9798What mean you, Sir,[ struggling vehemently to get away,] to detain me thus against my will?
9798What say you, Mr. Solmes?
9798What say you?
9798What then!--I can but-- But what?
9798What though the contention will be between woman and woman?
9798What will they do, Betty?
9798What will they do?
9798What workman loves not a sharp tool to work with?
9798What 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?
9798What would you have of them?
9798What''s that for?
9798What, Madam, has the man dared to say of me?
9798What, Madam, is now to be done with me?
9798What, pray, Miss, are they?
9798What, taking my hand, can be the matter with you?--Why, my dear, tremble, tremble, tremble, at this rate?
9798Where, 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?
9798Whether I am willing or not willing, you mean, I suppose, Mrs. Betty?
9798Whither go you, Niece?
9798Who but pities you, and blames he?
9798Who can forbid tears?
9798Who commands my attendance, Miss?
9798Who is it, then, Madam, that so reluctant an interview on both sides, is to please?
9798Who knows what Tuesday or Wednesday may produce?
9798Who was the old Greek, that said, he governed Athens; his wife, him; and his son, her?
9798Who would not enjoy a power, that is to be short- lived?
9798Who, I, Sir, to find you bowels you naturally have not?
9798Whom now, Clary, said my sister, do you reflect upon?
9798Why should the poor girl be turned out of doors so suddenly, so disgracefully?
9798Why will you send your servant empty- handed?
9798Why, dear, good Sir, am I to be made unhappy in a point so concerning my happiness?
9798Will nothing do, but to have a man who is the more disgustful to me, because he is unjust in the very articles he offers?
9798Will she not so far favour me?
9798Will you doubt, my dear, that my next trial will be the most affecting that I have yet had?
9798Will you give me your hands?
9798Will you go down, Miss Clary, or will you not?
9798Will you see your father?
9798Would a girl, modest as simple, above seventeen, be set a- singing at the pleasure of such a man as that?
9798Would a week?
9798Yet I will ask you, Have you, Miss, no more proposals to make?
9798Yet a club will beat down a sword: And how can you expect that they who are hurt by you will not hurt you again?
9798Yet what can I do?--I believe I shall take it back again the first thing in the morning-- Yet what can I do?
9798Yet why should I be thus uneasy, since, should the letter go, I can but hear what Mr. Lovelace says to it?
9798You are an ungrateful and unreasonable child: Must you have your way paramount to every body''s?
9798You ask me, in a very unbrotherly manner, in the postscript to your letter, if I have not some new proposals to make?
9798You see how determined-- But how can I expect your advice will come time enough to stand me in any stead?
9798Your answer is required, whether you cheerfully consent to go?
9798a stranger, and professedly in disguise!--Would her father and grandmother, if honest people, and careful of their simple girl, permit such freedoms?
9798after this instance of you so lightly dispensing with your promise?
9798and does this suspicion offend you?
9798and that to be withdrawn, whenever I disoblige him?
9798and when I am determined never to encourage him?
9798as well as I do?
9798because they think you merit better treatment at her hands: And is not this to your credit?
9798could escape you penetrating eye?
9798cries one:--''Is she love- sick?''
9798he asked-- Was this the interpretation I put upon his brotherly care of me, and concern for me, in order to prevent my ruining myself?
9798how could my uncle Harlowe so dissemble?]
9798in the eye of that world which, cruelly as I am used,( not knowing all,) would not acquit me?
9798in your behaviour to a man who loves you so dearly, and is so worthy and so sincere a man?
9798is it to make thy keen face look still keener?
9798might not I be obliged with one week, without such a horrid condition as the last?
9798no answer, my dear?--Why so much silent grief?
9798nor how much nobler it is to forgive, and even how much more manly to despise, than to resent, an injury?
9798not if your father or mother command it-- Girl?
9798particularly, upon your own family-- and upon ours too?
9798repeated I: and this from my aunt Hervey?
9798said I-- Had not Mr. Solmes a view in this?
9798said I-- Have you not been in tears, my dear?
9798said my aunt-- Could I have thought a brother would have said this, to a gentleman, of a sister?
9798said my uncle, withdrawing his hands from mine: Could I ever have thought of this from you?
9798said she, patting my neck-- O my dear Niece, who would have thought so much natural sweetness could be so very unpersuadable?
9798silent still?--But, Clary, wo n''t you have a velvet suit?
9798that my cousin Morden-- But what signifies wishing?
9798to think of taking so undutiful a step, because you believe your mother would be glad to receive you again?
9798to what end, Sir?--Do I contend for any thing more than a mere negative?
9798what can I?
9798when I myself declared, that if I saw him a second time by my own consent, it might be so taken?
9798who knows what?
9798with 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?
11364A 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?
11364Am I as hateful to you as the vile Solmes?
11364Am I not ready to make you all the reparation that I can make you?
11364And also, if you have heard of any journey, or intended journey, of my brother, in company with Captain Singleton and Mr. Solmes?
11364And am I, Sir, to be thus beset?--Surrounded thus?--What have these women to do with me?
11364And am not I a smuggler too?
11364And are they not both every whit as culpable?
11364And are you sure you are now out of his reach?
11364And can I have taken all this pains for nothing?
11364And can not our fraternity in an hundred instances give proof of the like predominance of vice over virtue?
11364And do n''t you know who gave it to her?
11364And do you think that I would have given my consent to my imprisonment in it?
11364And does he not enjoin us works of mercy to one another, as the means to obtain his mercy?
11364And for how long?
11364And for what should her heart be broken?
11364And from what?
11364And have I any other resource left me?
11364And her punishment, as she calls it, is over: but when mine will, or what it may be, who can tell?
11364And how should we be convinced that any of them are proof till they are tried?
11364And if I do think thee so, have I not cause?
11364And if they were cheerful on the anniversary occasion?
11364And imaginest thou, fairest, thought I, that this will go down with a Lovelace?
11364And is this amiable doctrine the sum of religion?
11364And is this the answer thou returnest me?
11364And must not my next step be an irretrievable one, tend it which way it will?
11364And need I go throw the sins of her cursed family into the too- weighty scale?
11364And now what thinkest thou must become of the lady, whom LOVE itself gives up, and CONSCIENCE can not plead for?
11364And 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?
11364And what dost thou think it is?
11364And what is it that I demand, that I have not a right to, and from which it is an illegal violence to withhold me?
11364And what is that injury which a church- rite will not at any time repair?
11364And what sayest thou now to my dream?
11364And what will be my subject thinkest thou?
11364And what will withhold a jealous and already- ruined woman?
11364And what, Madam, meant you by your promise?
11364And what, Sir, said she, with an air of authority, would you commit errors, and expect to be rewarded for them?
11364And who can describe the distress she must be in?
11364And who, thinkest thou, is my cousin Montague?
11364And 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?
11364And wo n''t this be doing a kind thing by them?
11364And yet why say I completed?
11364Answer me, Madam-- Did you mean any thing in my favour by your promise?
11364Are you recovered of your illness?
11364Arriving here in an instant, the first word I asked, was, If the lady was safe?
11364As 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?
11364Astonishing, my dear, that you should suspect them!--But, knowing your strange opinion of them, what can I say to be believed?
11364At this rate of romancing, how many flourishing ruins dost thou, as well as I, know?
11364But again let me ask, Does this lady do right to make herself ill, when she is not ill?
11364But as to the arms and crest upon the coach and trappings?
11364But 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?
11364But dost think, Jack, that I in the like case( and equally affected with the distress) should have acted thus?
11364But for the time she should stay in these parts, she would come up every night-- What say you, niece Charlotte?
11364But have you really and truly sold yourself to him?
11364But how know I, that I have not made my own difficulties?
11364But how was it possible, that even that florid countenance of his should enable him to command a blush at his pleasure?
11364But if I should, Jack,( with the strongest antipathy to the state that ever man had,) what a figure shall I make in rakish annals?
11364But if not, what shall I say severe enough, that you have not answered either of my last letters?
11364But is Thursday, the 29th, her uncle''s anniversary, methinks thou askest?
11364But is not that equivocation?
11364But 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?
11364But know you where my lady is?
11364But say, are you really ill, as a vile, vile creature informs me you are?
11364But seest thou not that I am under a necessity to continue her at Sinclair''s and to prohibit all her correspondencies?
11364But tell me, of a truth, is Miss Howe really and truly ill?--Very ill?- And is not her illness poison?
11364But that must all be forgotten now-- How do you, my Hannah?
11364But thinkest thou that, after such a series of contrivance, I will lose this inimitable woman for want of a little more?
11364But 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?
11364But this must be the last debate on this subject; for is not her fate in a manner at its crisis?
11364But 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?
11364But to no purpose.--May she not thank herself for all that may follow?
11364But to what purpose have I gone thus far, if I pursue not my principal end?
11364But what can I do?
11364But what shall I do, if my father can not be prevailed upon to recall his malediction?
11364But who would have thought there had been such a woman in the world?
11364But woe be to them, if---- Yet what will vengeance do, after an insult committed?
11364But, if she will keep back her hand, if she will make me hold out mine in vain, how can I help it?
11364Can I have a better?
11364Can this particular story, which this girl hints at, be that of Lucy Villars?
11364Could not Morrison bring up the box?
11364Could the divine SOCRATES, and the divine CLARISSA, otherwise have suffered?
11364Could you have thought there was a woman in the world who could thus express herself, and yet be vile?
11364Did I never show thee a scheme which I drew up on such a notion as this?
11364Did Mr. Solmes ever do vilely by me?
11364Did you mean any thing in my favour, Madam?--Did you intend that I should think you did?
11364Do n''t you think him so, Madam?
11364Do we not then see, that an honest prowling fellow is a necessary evil on many accounts?
11364Do you come from Miss Howe?
11364Do you expect any voluntary favour from one to whom you give not a free choice?
11364Do you intend, Madam, to honour me with your hand, in your uncle''s presence, or do you not?
11364Do 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?
11364Do you live with Miss Howe?
11364Do you think yourself in my power, Madam?
11364Do you think, Madam, that I fear the law?
11364Does he not see that he has journeyed on to this stage, with one determined point in view from the first?
11364Does she not show me that she can wilfully deceive, as well as I?
11364Dost thou ask, What I meant by this promise?
11364Dost thou know my right name, friend?
11364Dost thou not know that a Blunt''s must supply her, while her own is new lining and repairing?
11364Dost thou thus evade my question?
11364Durst ever see a license, Jack?
11364For have we not been prodigal of life and fortune?
11364For here( wouldst thou have thought it?)
11364For what an odd soul must she be who could not have her twelvemonth''s trial?
11364For what?
11364For whom has she to receive and protect her?
11364For why?
11364Forgive 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?
11364Good Lovelace, let me go to Mrs. Leeson''s?
11364HER''S, or MINE?
11364Had they not, Jack?
11364Have I not told you, that my beloved is a great observer of the eyes?
11364Have I not tried every other method?
11364Have I offered any new injury to you, my dearest life?
11364Have you, Madam, any reliance upon my honour?
11364He asked if she had any partiklar message?
11364He pulled the string-- What need to have come this way?
11364Here 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?
11364Hitherto she is all angel: and was not that the point which at setting out I proposed to try?
11364How came the dear soul,( clothed as it is with such a silken vesture,) by all its steadiness?
11364How came you here in this?
11364How do you?
11364How else can I leave you?
11364How often have I known opposition not only cement friendship, but create love?
11364How shall I satisfy you for this kind trouble?
11364How the devil can this be?
11364How then, as I asked her, could I comply, without resolving to lose her for ever?
11364How will you trust to it, if you extort an answer to this question?
11364I axed master, if soe bee he knowed sitch a man as one Captain Tomlinson?
11364I do say, if she come fairly at her lights, at her clues, or what shall I call them?
11364I have lost it again-- This foolish wench comes teasing me-- for what purpose should I eat?
11364I hope Miss Howe is well?
11364I know what you mean, Madam-- Am I then as hateful to you as the vile Solmes?
11364I only asked, What was his business, and who he came from?
11364I repeat, therefore, Am I now at liberty to dispose of myself as I please?
11364I will study for it---- Suppose I suffer her to make an escape?
11364If I go not down to Mr. Hall, Madam, you''ll have no scruple to stay here, I suppose, till Thursday is over?
11364If it be not that,[ and yet what power should her guardian angel have over me?]
11364If these postulata be granted me, who, I pray, can equal my charmer in all these?
11364If 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?
11364If you are, do you choose to come and be with me?
11364Indeed has not at all forgiven me?
11364Is a fancied distress, sufficient to justify this lady for dispensing with her principles?
11364Is her''s, I pray you, a right sort of love?
11364Is it love at all?
11364Is it not wonderful?
11364Is not every man and woman obliged to excuse that fault in another, which at times they find attended with such ungovernable effects in themselves?
11364Is not this the crisis for which I have been long waiting?
11364Is she not?
11364Is this, my dear, preparative to the conversation you led me to expect in the dining- room?
11364It is this: Whether you know any such man as Captain Tomlinson?
11364Let go my hand, Sir-- Take away your arm from about me,[ struggling, yet trembling,]--Why do you gaze upon me so?
11364Let 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?''
11364Let me only know, Madam, if your promise to endeavour to wait with patience the event of next Thursday meant me favour?
11364May I not be able to prevail upon him to leave me at my liberty?
11364May I trust to it?--Say only may I trust to it?
11364May not the evil I know be less than what I may fall into, if I can avoid farther villany?
11364Moreover, what a multitude of domestic quarrels would be avoided, where such a scheme carried into execution?
11364Mrs. 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?
11364Must she not live?
11364My dearest creature, said the vile man, gasping, as it were for breath, you shall not alight-- Any letters for me, Dorcas?
11364Nay, how should I know?
11364Noblest of creatures!--And do you think I can leave you, and my interest in such an excellence, precarious?
11364Now, Jack, what terms wouldst thou have me to keep with such a sweet corruptress?
11364Once more I ask thee, Am I, or am I not, at my own liberty now?
11364Or can you conveniently?
11364Or, why was this singular one to fall to my lot?
11364Other name!--Has she two?
11364Pray acquaint me, if they have been there?
11364Pray, Madam, whipping between her and the street- door, be pleased to let me know where you are going?
11364Right 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?
11364Say only, dearest creature, say only, may I trust to your favour, if you go to Hampstead?
11364Seest thou not how she hates me?
11364Seest thou not that she is resolved never to forgive me?
11364Seest thou not, however, that she must disgrace herself in the eye of the world, if she actually should escape?
11364Several weeks past, I should say; ever since I have been with thee?
11364Shall I tell thee my project?
11364She purposes to return to Hampstead as soon as I am gone-- My dear, will you not have a servant to attend you?
11364She put it close to me, Whether I had not corresponded with you from the time of your going away?
11364She refused me her hand!--Was she wise, Jack, to confirm to me, that nothing but terror would do?
11364She so affrights me, when I see her!--Ever since-- when was it?
11364Should he call the next day?
11364Suppose Dorcas should drop the promissory note given her by her lady?
11364Tell me, ungrateful devil, tell me who made the first advances?
11364The brute, or the lady?
11364The coachman stopped: his servant, who, with one of her''s was behind, alighted-- Ask, said he, if I have any letters?
11364The red- hot iron she refuses to strike-- O why will she suffer the yielding wax to harden?
11364The 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?
11364The would not the distinction be very pretty, Jack?
11364Thou hast seen Lady Betty Lawrance several times-- hast thou not, Belford?
11364To endeavour, Sir, to make myself easy-- were the words---- Till you saw what next Thursday would produce?
11364To 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?
11364To what purpose did I ask her consent, if she had not a power over either her own person or actions?
11364Wallis?
11364Was he one of Lovelace''s creatures too!-- Could nobody come near me but that man''s confederates, either setting out so, or made so?
11364Was it necessary to humble me down to the low level of thy baseness, before I could be a wife meet for thee?
11364Was she not talking with you this moment?
11364Was you ordered to wait for an answer?
11364Well, but, after all[ how many after- all''s have I?]
11364Were I to be sure that this foundation is laid[ And why may I not hope it is?]
11364What a d--- l I moves you, to plead thus earnestly for a rebel, who despises your power?
11364What 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?
11364What answer, Mrs. Margaret, did you give the man, upon his asking for Mrs. Harriot Lucas?
11364What can she do but rave and exclaim?
11364What can this mean!--Who was the messenger you sent?
11364What could I say to such a question?
11364What defence, indeed, could there be against so determined a wretch, after you was in his power?
11364What duration is your reign to have?
11364What have I done to merit so much goodness, who never saw your Lordship in my life?]
11364What have you to say to me?
11364What is it she ought not to expect from an unchained Beelzebub, and a plotting villain?
11364What is she afraid of?
11364What is thy business?
11364What is your business with me, friend?
11364What is your business, friend, with Mrs. Harry Lucas?
11364What nonsense then to suppose that such a mere notional violation as she has suffered should be able to cut asunder the strings of life?
11364What redress lies for a perpetuated evil?
11364What right have you to detain me here?
11364What 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?
11364What say you, cousin Lovelace?
11364What though the presence of a fine lady would require a different behaviour, are you not of years to dispense with politeness?
11364What vestigia, what remembrances, but such as will inspire abhorrence of the attempter?
11364What will you do for clothes, Madam?
11364What will you do for money, Madam?
11364What, he asks, is the injury which a church- rite will not at any time repair?
11364What, said she, would you have me do?
11364When settest thou out for the Isle of Wight, love?
11364Whence, Jack, can this be?
11364Where will she mend herself?
11364Wherefore then should grief sadden and distort such blythe, such jocund, features as mine?
11364Whether her virtue be principle?
11364Whether, if once subdued, she will not be always subdued?
11364Whether, in a word, you intend to hinder me from going where my destiny shall lead me?
11364Whither, Madam, do you design to go when you get out of this house?
11364Who has a right to controul me?
11364Who now shall provide the nuptial ornaments, which soften and divert the apprehensions of the fearful virgin?
11364Who says that, sleeping and waking, I have not fine helps from somebody, some spirit rather, as thou''lt be apt to say?
11364Who the devil could have expected such strange effects from a cause so common and so slight?
11364Who therefore so fit for an example to the rest of her sex?
11364Whose regret, at times, can be deeper than mine, for the injuries I have done her?
11364Why all these exclamations?
11364Why all this extravagant passion?
11364Why am I to be thus detained against my will?
11364Why did I not send for their coach, as I had intimated?
11364Why do you call Mr. Solmes vile?
11364Why hesitate you, Sir?
11364Why should I seek to conceal that disgrace from others which I can not hide from myself?
11364Why should I?
11364Why then should this enervating pity unsteel my foolish heart?
11364Why then were there not more examples of a virtue so immovable?
11364Why this terror, my life?
11364Why will she make it necessary for me to bring Lady Betty and my cousin to my assistance?
11364Why, Mr. Lovelace, must I be determined by your motions?--Think you that I will voluntarily give a sanction to the imprisonment of my person?
11364Why, why, thought I, as I did several times in this conversation, will she not generously forgive me?
11364Will 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?
11364Will not Col. Morden, as her trustee, put her in possession of it?
11364Will not the consequence of your departure hence be that I shall lose you for ever, Madam?--And can I bear the thoughts of that?
11364Will you eat, or drink, friend?
11364Will you take Dorcas?
11364With what face can I take upon me to reproach a want of prudence in her?
11364Would I dare, she asked me, to offer at a palliation of my baseness?
11364Would she be pleased to assure me that she would stay here only till Tuesday morning?
11364Yet is she not haughty?]
11364Yet what does even my success in my machinations bring me but regret, disgrace, repentance?
11364You are Mrs. Harriot Lucas, I suppose, Madam?
11364You persuade your lady to be afraid of alighting.--See you not that she is just fainting?
11364You thought, Madam, you had given me room to hope your pardon by it?
11364a- year, enable a man to do?
11364and Dorcas whipt to the inner- hall door, and saw her; but, taking her for Mabell, Are you going far, Mabell?
11364and have we not attempted rescues, and dared all things, only to extricate a pounded profligate?
11364and how could you pass me unseen?
11364and when a CLARISSA could not move me?
11364and wherefore these agonizing apprehensions?
11364and whether you bespoke your nephew''s attendance there on Sunday night the 11th?
11364and will you acquit her whom that condemns?
11364and, if you do, whether he be very intimate with my uncle Harlowe?
11364at a time too, when, as it falls out, I have another very sensible disappointment to struggle with?
11364have we not defied the civil magistrate upon occasion?
11364knows not how to forgive with graciousness?
11364one whom she knew to be a rake?
11364or what malefactor ought to be hanged?
11364said he-- But since we are, I will but ask a question-- My dearest life, why this apprehension?
11364said she-- do you authorize these women-- what right have they, or you either, to stop me?
11364what a hand have I made of it!--And all for what?
11364what, in the mean time, shall I do with this admirable creature?
11364when the will, the consent, is wanting-- and I have still views before me of obtaining that?
11364when, of consequence, the affair is irretrievable?
11364with 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?
10462Am I not a villain, a fool, a Beelzebub, with them already?
10462Am I not obliged to deserve thy compliment?
10462Am I not under a necessity, as it were, of quarrelling with him; at least every other time I see him?
10462Am I not your general?
10462And are not cautions against the perfidy of our sex a necessary part of the female education?
10462And are not lovers''oaths a jest of hundreds of years''standing?
10462And as it gives people the power of being mischievous, does it not require great virtue to forbear the use of that power?
10462And did not Essex''s personal reflection on Queen Elizabeth, that she was old and crooked, contribute more to his ruin than his treason?
10462And do you think, my worthy woman, do you think, that the wilful lapse of such a child is to be forgiven?
10462And for what?
10462And has, besides, overheard a conversation[ who would have thought she had been so near?]
10462And have I so much as summoned this to surrender?
10462And if I do her this justice, shall I not have a claim of her gratitude?
10462And if I do, after prevailing( whether by surprise, or by reluctant consent) whom but myself shall I have injured?
10462And is not the mind of a person strongly indicated by outward dress?
10462And now, Jack, dost thou think she''ll attempt to get from me, do what I will?
10462And so, Sir, taking all you say for granted, your cousin Montague can not come to Mrs. Sinclair''s?
10462And that other great one, of fixing myself here night and day?
10462And 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?
10462And think you, my dear, that Scipio did not blush with indignation, when the charge was first communicated to him?
10462And this will be a further proof of my love, and will demand a grateful return-- And what then, thou egregious contriver?
10462And what a vulture of a man must he be, who souses upon his prey, and in the same moment trusses and devours?
10462And what if she shows a great deal of concern?
10462And what in saying this, and acting up to it, do I offer you, but the frits of a friendship your worth has created?
10462And what shall deter an attempter?
10462And what should it be but of the answer the truly admirable creature had intended to give to my written proposals in relation to settlements?
10462And what the contents?
10462And what were my four friends to her in her present circumstances?
10462And what will being sick do for thee?
10462And what will this do?
10462And what woman answers affirmatively to the question?
10462And who knows but that once indulgent uncle, who has very great weight in the family, may be induced to interpose in my behalf?
10462And why do the sex love rakes, but because they know how to direct their uncertain wills, and manage them?
10462And why sayest thou she loves me?
10462And why shouldst thou punish me, for having more conscience and more remorse than thyself?
10462And will not such a man as this engross all your solitudes?
10462And will she not think herself the obliged, rather than the obliger?
10462And would a man who has nothing but faults( for pray, Sir, what are your virtues?)
10462And wouldst thou have me repent of a murder before I have committed it?
10462And wouldst thou make her unhappy for her whole life, and thyself not happy for a single moment?
10462And you say you have tried Mrs. Norton''s weight with my mother?
10462And, indeed, what is a covetous man to be likened to so fitly, as to a dog in a wheel which roasts meat for others?
10462Are there no pigeons and chickens in every poulterer''s shop?
10462Are these sayings bad, Sir?
10462Are 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?]
10462Are we not children of this world?
10462Are you not men born to considerable fortunes, although ye are not all of you men of parts?
10462Art thou able to say half the things in her praise, that I have said, and am continually saying or writing?
10462As the nymphs below ask, so do I, Why is night necessary?
10462But after all, see you not, my dear, more and more, the mismatch that there is in our minds?
10462But as for thy three brethren, they must do as I would have them: and so, indeed, must thou-- Else why am I your general?
10462But 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?
10462But didst ever hear who was the wisest woman?
10462But do you call this odd soul''s letter[ no more will I call him old soul, if I can help it] a love- letter?
10462But do you know the subject, Nancy?
10462But here, Jack, what shall I do with my uncle and aunts, and all my loving cousins?
10462But how shall I find this out; since her Dorcas knows no more of her dressing and undressing than her Lovelace?
10462But in a play does not the principal entertainment lie in the first four acts?
10462But is she, in the instance before us, more polite for a woman?
10462But knowest thou not young Newcomb, honest Doleman''s newphew?
10462But 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?
10462But otherwise, he had seen as many contrite faces at the Royal Chapel, as any where else: and why not?
10462But should she be so much grieved at this?
10462But 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?
10462But thou wilt not drown the poor fellow; wilt thou?
10462But what can you promise youself, as to perseverance in them, with an immoral husband?
10462But what hinders you from leaving me?--Cannot I send to you?
10462But what is become of Lord M. I trow, that he writes not to me, in answer to my invitation?
10462But what is person with such a lady as I have the honour to be now writing to?
10462But what is this saying, but that I must be first wiser?
10462But what necessity can there be for hypocrisy, unless the generality of the sex were to refuse us for our immoralities?
10462But what points will not perseverance carry?
10462But what, said I, is the result of your inquiry?
10462But why callest thou the lady innocent?
10462But why do I translate these things for you?
10462But why so, my dear?
10462But why, now, when fairer prospects seem to open, why these melancholy reflections?
10462But why, rather I should ask, will she fight against her stars?
10462But why?--Do they think it so great a disgrace to be found out to be really what they are?
10462But, 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?)
10462But, if not,[ was it his business, my dear, before I spoke( yet he seemed to be afraid of me) to say, if not?]
10462But, if we are good- natured and humane: if the woman has art:[ and what woman wants it, who has fallen by art?
10462Can a girl be degraded by trials, who is not overcome?
10462Can not I find one yielding or but half- yielding moment, if she do not absolutely hate me?
10462Can she herself think that she deserves not the severest punishment for the abuse of such talents as were intrusted to her?
10462Can you hope, cousin, with such a man as this to be long so good as you now are?
10462Canst thou doubt, that it was all complaisance next time she admitted me into her presence?
10462Could 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?
10462Could not the man have fallen into the subject without this parade?
10462Could they expect, that a mother would not vindicate her authority?
10462Courage whenever I assume, all is over: for, should she think of escaping from hence, whither can she fly to avoid me?
10462D. Dear Madam, would you blame me, if to wish you not to marry Mr. Antony Harlowe, is to wish well to myself?
10462D. From Mr. Antony Harlowe, I suppose, Madam?
10462D. How can I expect, Madam, that you should refuse such terms?
10462D. How, Madam, could I think of any body else?
10462D. Then he is to come again, Madam?
10462D. Will you forgive me, Madam?
10462D. Without hearing the whole of the letter?
10462Dear creature!--Did she never romp?
10462Depend they not, generally, upon their fortunes, in the views they have upon us, more than on their merits?
10462Did she never, from girlhood to now, hoyden?
10462Didst 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?
10462Do I what, Madam?--And why vile man?
10462Do n''t you see that his very skin is a fortification of buff?
10462Do n''t you think so, my dear?
10462Do not girls of fortune adorn themselves on purpose to engage our attention?
10462Do not the hunters of the noble game value the venison less than the sport?
10462Do not the sex carry all their points with their men by the same methods?
10462Do you defend these two gentlewomen, Sir, by reflections upon half the sex?
10462Do you know how my poor Hannah does?
10462Do you know, my dear, how this can be?
10462Do you not think, my dear, that I have reason to be incensed at him, my situation considered?
10462Does not the example you furnish, of having succeeded with her, give encouragement for others to attempt her likewise?
10462Does 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?
10462Dorcas is to be attached to her interest: my letters are to be come at by surprise or trick''-- What thinkest thou of this, Jack?
10462Dost think I brought the dear creature hither for nothing?
10462Even suppose the husband is in the wrong, will not this being so give the greater force to her expostulation?
10462For what, with a mind so unequal as his, can be my best hope?
10462For what?
10462For why, in short, should not the work of bodies be left to mere bodies?
10462For why, when they know they can not do good, may they not as well endeavour to gratify, as to nauseate, the patient''s palate?
10462For why?
10462God give us both comfort; and to the once dear-- the ever- dear creature( for can a mother forget her child?)
10462Good!--But how wilt thou manage to bring up blood, and not hurt thyself?
10462Has not she?
10462Hast thou not observed, the charming gradations by which the ensnared volatile has been brought to bear with its new condition?
10462Have I conversed with them so freely as I have done, and learnt nothing of them?
10462Have I not always told thee so?
10462Have I not called thine the plotting''st heart in the universe?
10462Have I not said, that the honour of her sex is concerned that I should try?
10462Have my uncles given their sanction, and made it a family act?
10462Have you not been impoliticly shy of her?
10462He is but an uncle, is he?
10462He owns likewise that he has not the address of Mr. Lovelace: but what a mere personal advantage is a plausible address, without morals?
10462He was full of excuses-- O my dear, what would you, even you, do with such a man as this; and in my situation?
10462How can it be?
10462How can she think to be a wife?
10462How comes it to pass, that I can not help being pleased with this virago''s spirit, though I suffer by it?
10462How could you brook to go backward, instead of forward, in those duties which you now so exemplarily perform?
10462How dare I what, Madam?
10462How dare I what?
10462How dare you curse any body in my presence?
10462How know I then, upon recollection, that my censures upon theirs are not too rash?
10462How my indignation rises for this poor consolation in the courtship[ courtship must I call it?]
10462How should I know, unless the dear creature had communicated them to me?
10462Hudibras questions well,------What mad lover ever dy''d To gain a soft and easy bride?
10462I am said, to doubt her love-- Have I not reason?
10462I am sensible that my pleas and my reasoning may be easily answered, and perhaps justly censured; But by whom censured?
10462I asked her, if she had had the small- pox?
10462I find he was full of expectation that I should meet him with a very favourable, who knows but with a thankful, aspect?
10462I need not bid you respect me mightily: your allegiance obliges you to that: And who that sees me, respects me not?
10462I 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?]
10462I took her reluctant hand, and pressed it to my lips.--Dearest, loveliest of creatures, why this distance?
10462I would have flung from him in resentment; but he would not let me: and what could I do?
10462If a woman suspects a rogue in an honest man, is it not enough to make the honest man who knows it a rogue?
10462If he come, it will be in pursuance of that line, I presume?
10462If now she has so little liking to his morals, has she not reason before to have as little?
10462If such a man as Mr. Lovelace knows not this, who should?
10462If they were faulty in some of the measures they took, while they themselves did not think so, who shall judge for them?
10462If women have such things in their heads, why should not I in my heart?
10462If you ask me, my dear, how this caution befits me?
10462If your parents and you differ in sentiment on this important occasion, let me ask you, my dear cousin, who ought to give way?
10462In what light am I to look upon you?
10462Is he not?
10462Is it he?
10462Is it not generally agreed that he can not recover?
10462Is it not plain, my dear, that he designs to vex and tease me?
10462Is not all in a manner over when you come to the fifth?
10462Is not the devil said to be the god of this world?
10462Is not the world full of these deceptions?
10462Is the devil in the girl?
10462Is the passion you boast of to be thus shockingly demonstrated?
10462Is this to be borne by a Lovelace?
10462Knowest thou not, that I am a great name- father?
10462M. And suppose he be?
10462M. Old soul, Nancy!--And thus to call him for being a bachelor, not having a child!--Does this become you?
10462M. That sum has your approbation then?
10462M. What now would the pert one be at?
10462M. What would the girl say?
10462M.[ Lips drawn closer: eye raised] Why, my dear!--I can not but own-- But how, I wonder, could you think of Mr. Anthony Harlowe?
10462May I be allowed to read his letter?
10462Memorandum, To be considered of-- Whether, in order to complete my vengeance, I can not contrive to kidnap away either James Harlowe or Solmes?
10462Mennell?
10462Most confoundedly alarmed!--Lord, Sir, what do you think?
10462Mrs. Sinclair came out at that instant, and asked me, if I did not choose a dish of chocolate?
10462Must I not with such a man, says she, be wanting to myself, were I not jealous and vigilant?
10462Must it not even rise strongest upon a thoughtful mind, when her hopes are the fairest?
10462My cursed character, as I have often said, was against me at setting out--Yet is she not a woman?
10462My dearest creature, need I to have mentioned any thing of this?
10462My dearest life,[ taking her still folded hands in mine,] who can bear an invocation so affecting, though so passionate?
10462My dearest love, are you well?
10462My dearest, dearest creature, would you incur a maternal, as I have a paternal, malediction?
10462Nor was my Rosebud the only girl I spared:--When my power was acknowledged, who more merciful than thy friend?
10462Now, 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?
10462Now, my dear, is not this a particular incident, either as I have made it, or as it was designed?
10462O my beloved creature, will not this be agreeable to you?
10462O my dearest life, said he, why will you banish me from your presence?
10462On my return, meeting Dorcas on the stairs-- Your lady in her chamber, Dorcas?
10462Or shall I roundly accost him, in the words, in the form, which you, my dear, prescribed?
10462Or, for a lady tender- hearted, In purling streams, or hemp, departed?
10462Rememebrest thou not this scene?
10462Seek they not to draw us into their snares?
10462Shall we deprive them of the benefit of their principal dependence?--Can I, in particular, marry every girl who wishes to obtain my notice?
10462She asked, if she might take a copy of Miss Montague''s letter?
10462She 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?
10462She 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?
10462She proceeded: What now remains, but that you pronounce me free of all obligation to you?
10462Should she attempt to fly me upon it, can not I detain her?
10462Sick!--Why sick?
10462So likewise her father fears; her brother hears; and what can I do?
10462Suppose I were to be unhappy, what, my dear, would this resolution of yours avail me?
10462Tell 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?
10462The dear girl hoped that nothing had passed in her behaviour to give me dislike to her.--Should she bring her to me?
10462The first word he asked Dorcas, was, If I had received a letter since he had been out?
10462The more noble any one is, the more humble; so bear with me, if you would be thought noble.--Am I not your uncle?
10462The women below say she hates me; she despises me!--And''tis true: she does; she must.--And why can not I take their advice?
10462Then so sensual!--How will a young lady of your delicacy bear with so sensual a man?
10462Then turning to him, I asked, if he kept me there his prisoner?
10462There, Belford!--Worse off than Mercury!--Art thou not?
10462They 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?
10462Those, Mr. Belford, who most love, are least set by.--But who would expect velvet to be made out of a sow''s ear?
10462To stand by, and see fair play between an old man and death?
10462Was not this my motive for bringing her hither?
10462Was not this plain speaking, think you, my dear?
10462Well then, will he not be obliged to declare himself?
10462Well, 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?
10462Well, but to the letter-- Yet what need of further explanation after the hints in my former?
10462Well, then, shall this poor privilege, that we may part with a woman if we will, be deemed a balance for the other inconveniencies?
10462Were not hesitation, a self- felt glow, a downcast eye, encouragement more than enough?
10462What a figure should I make in rakish annals, if at last I should be caught in my own gin?
10462What a- devil shouldst thou be sick for?
10462What could I say?
10462What for?
10462What is it, pray?
10462What is the whole world to me, weighed against such a friend as you are?
10462What is there in an easy conquest?
10462What may happen next, whether a storm or a calm, with such a spirit as I have to deal with, who can tell?
10462What room for delicacy now?--Or would you have me write to him?
10462What sayest thou to this, Jack?
10462What signifies her keeping me thus at a distance?
10462What signifies power, if we do not exert it?
10462What signifies thy tedious whining over thy departing relation?
10462What therefore, upon the whole, do we get by treading in these crooked paths, but danger, disgrace, and a too- late repentance?
10462What think you, my dear, of this expedient?
10462What think you?
10462What woulds''t thou more?
10462What''s the matter now?
10462What, in the first place, wilt thou ask, shall be done with Hickman?
10462What, my dearest cousin, shall I plead first to you on this occasion?
10462What, pray, Sir, can be pleaded for the condescension, as you call it?
10462What, pray, is her objection to Mrs. Sinclair''s?
10462What, says he, might have become of me, and of my projects, had not her father, and the rest of the implacables, stood my friends?
10462Whither go, the evening advanced?
10462Who can account for the workings of an apprehensive mind, when all that is dear and valuable to it is at stake?
10462Who is it in this mortal life that wealth does not mislead?
10462Who knows, but on that very Monday night I may be so unhappy as to give mortal offence to my beloved?
10462Who knows, she says, but her dear friend was permitted to swerve, in order to bring about his reformation?
10462Who so proper to assist in making new holding laws, as those whom no law in being could hold?
10462Who, that hath such, will let''em be idle?
10462Why can not I make every day equally happy?
10462Why look you so solemn upon me?
10462Why should I mince the matter?
10462Why should he wish to expose his children to the scorn and insults of the rest of the world?
10462Why should such an angel be plunged so low as into the vulgar offices of a domestic life?
10462Why that word approbation?
10462Why then I shall have the less remorse, if I am to use a little violence: for can she deserve compassion, who shows none?
10462Why then do they keep tormenting him?
10462Why then does my foolish fondness seek to establish for her the same merit in my heart, as if she avowed it?
10462Why then should you hesitate a moment to confirm my happiness?
10462Why, again I repeat, should he have been desirous to bring me into such company?
10462Why, my dear, if you love me, will you not rather give another friend to one who has not two she is sure of?
10462Why, once more, would you banish me from you?
10462Why, why, my dear, will you fright me with your flaming love?
10462Why?
10462Will it not be kind in thee to put him out of his misery?
10462Will you say, your merits, either with regard to them, or to myself, may?
10462Will your indifference never be over?
10462With whom, think you?
10462Would I vouchsafe to say, whether I approved of his compliment to Lord M. or not?
10462Would not a brave fellow choose to appear in court to such an arraignment, confronting women who would do credit to his attempt?
10462Would not the world think there was an infection in my fault, if it were to be followed by Miss Howe?
10462Would to heaven-- but what signifies wishing?
10462Yes, to be sure, when caught-- But is there any likelihood of that?-- Besides, have we not been in danger before now for worse facts?
10462Yet considers not that a woman so perfect can never be displeased with her husband but to his disgrace: For who will blame her?
10462Yet do not her parents richly deserve to be in tears?
10462Yet the former with a freer will than the latter; for how can I leave my goddess?
10462Yet, how my soul thirsts for revenge upon both these ladies?
10462You are sure, that you can go abroad when you please?
10462You give yourself very free airs-- don''t you?
10462You will believe I can not: for how shall I tell him that all his compliments are misbestowed?
10462a man who makes a jest of his vows?
10462all his warnings vain?
10462and after sitting up with you, equally against my will, till a very late hour?
10462and do I not design to be better to you than your father could be?
10462and how do you know, if you once give way, where you shall be suffered, where you shall be able, to stop?
10462and is it thus you would entrap me?
10462and that even my highest expectation is to be the wife of that free- liver, whom he so pathetically warns me to shun?
10462and that our correspondence is safe?
10462and that you hinder me not from pursuing the destiny that shall be allotted me?
10462and to whose precarious situation art is so necessary?]
10462and why should he make them think themselves under obligation to every person of character, who will vouchsafe to visit them?
10462and wouldst thou give operation and completion to that curse, which otherwise can not have effect?
10462are they to be despised?--Well, then, why should I be despised for remembering them, and quoting them, as I love to do?
10462as I have often said, can not you touch a lady''s heart without wounding her ear?
10462betrayed by his own tenderness, and unused to female tears, would have been overcome?
10462expect that I should show a value for him?
10462for what relation has a lover''s heart to a rusty pair of hinges?
10462if 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?
10462is it not enough that she is teased and tormented in person by me?
10462or both?
10462said I, can you think I have not some curiosity?
10462said I.--If you are a man of honour, what need of all this strange obliquity?
10462she may not yield to nightly surprises?
10462that all his advice is thrown away?
10462was it not, my dear?
10462watchful as you are, what could have happened?
10462when the greatest pride of all my family is, that of having the honour of so dear a creature for their relation?
10462why comest thou not just now, while these black prospects are before me?
10462why this displeasure?--How can you thus torture the faithfullest heart in the world?
10462will my beloved friend ask of her Clarissa?
10462with a trembling impatience, that seemed not affected-- What say you for to- morrow?
10462wouldst 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?
10799Absolutely resolved, Madam?
10799All sweetly blushing and confounded-- I know how she will look!--But why should she, the sufferer, be ashamed, when I, the trespasser, am not?
10799And I am truly afraid, that his very generosity is more owing to his pride and his vanity, that that philanthropy( shall I call it?)
10799And I thought I felt drops of scalding water[ could they be tears?]
10799And are we not told, that in being well deceived consists the whole of human happiness?
10799And as to trying her, is she not now in the height of her trial?
10799And can not I, as I have often said, reward her when I will by marriage?
10799And can there, after all, be a higher piece of justice, than to keep one smuggler in readiness to play against another?
10799And can you refuse to ratify your own promise?
10799And do not your sprightly ladies love your smart fellow, and your rakes?
10799And does he imagine, said she, that I could be brought to countenance to them the report you have given out?
10799And freely?
10799And has not my own heart deceived me, when I thought it did not?
10799And how can I receive a visit that must depress me more?
10799And how could I do this better, than by dialoguing a little with him before them?
10799And if she do, may she not forgive the last attempt?--Can she, in a word, resent that more than she does this?
10799And if so, to whom shall I be accountable for what I do to them?
10799And in the protection they offer you, if you are dissatisfied with mine?
10799And is it not in my own power still, by the Divine favour, to secure the greatest stake of all?
10799And is it not now fairly come to-- Who shall most deceive and cheat the other?
10799And is not the widow Bevis my fast friend?
10799And is not your friendship the pride of my life?
10799And is not your friendship the pride of my life?
10799And may not this very contrivance save a world of mischief?
10799And now, Belford, was it not worth while to be sick?
10799And pray, Sir, what is it?
10799And shall such a sneaking passion as this, which can be so easily gratified by viler objects, be permitted to debase the noblest?
10799And shall that of a Clarissa swell the guilty list?
10799And should not my beloved, for her own sake, descend, by degrees, from goddess- hood into humanity?
10799And should she not have charity for me, as I have for her?
10799And that then she may assist privately at your nuptials?
10799And the rather, as the maid told us, that the lady had asked her if such a gentleman[ describing him] was not in the parlour?
10799And then, if there be as much flaming love between these girls as they pretend, will my charmer profit by her escape?
10799And 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?
10799And what dost think was the matter?
10799And what have I to fear from my brother and sister?
10799And 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?
10799And what must be that love, that has not some degree of purity for its object?
10799And 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?
10799And what, Sir, said my mother?
10799And what, pray, Captain, was your advice?
10799And what, pray, must be the issue, when her uncle''s friend comes, although he seems to be a truly worthy man?
10799And who knows but it may be the better for the lady the less she makes necessary?
10799And who knows but she may?
10799And whose property, I pray thee, shall I invade, if I pursue my schemes of love and vengeance?
10799And why may it not rather be a servant of your cousin Morden, with notice of his arrival, and of his design to attend you?
10799And why should it be thought strange, that I, who love them so dearly, and study them so much, should catch the infection of them?
10799And why, dearest creature, said I, must every thing that happens, which we can not immediately account for, be what we least wish?
10799And why?
10799And will he not pursue his intentions in my favour, nor be himself reconciled to me, except I am married?
10799And will it not look well to have a lodger who keeps his chariot?
10799And will you be so good as to allow of this, Mr. Lovelace?
10799And will you look upon me to- morrow as if nothing had passed?
10799And wouldest thou think it?
10799And, as the sting of this reflection will sharpen upon me, if I recover her not, how shall I ever be able to bear it?
10799And, in either case, will not the remembrance of thy ever- during guilt, and transitory triumph, be a torment of torments to thee?
10799Another of her feints, I suppose: for how, or with whom, could any thing of this sort have been concerted since yesterday morning?
10799Are not all our engines in readiness?
10799Are 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?
10799As 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?
10799Briefly, whether you are actually, and bonâ fide, married to Miss Clarissa Harlowe?
10799But I ask him, how he can already expect any mark of deference or politeness from you?
10799But as to this letter, methinkest thou sayest, of Miss Howe?
10799But did not I tell thee that I had provided for every thing?
10799But 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?
10799But didst thou think, Jack, that there was so much-- What- shall- I- call- it?
10799But if I answer that I am, what then?
10799But if there be infection in that house, how has my beloved escaped it?
10799But if this is so, what,[ it would be asked by an indifferent person,] has hitherto saved you?
10799But let me ask you one previous question-- Do you know Colonel Morden, Sir?
10799But let me see, shall I be angry or pleased when I am admitted to my beloved''s presence?
10799But seest thou not that I have a claim of merit for a grace that every body hitherto had denied me?
10799But suppose you desire to go out of town for the air, this sultry weather, and insist upon it?
10799But 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?]
10799But this, indeed, may be said of all worldly delights.--And is not that a grave reflection from me?
10799But 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?
10799But what advantages do I give thee?
10799But what am I about?
10799But what indeed is an imperial crown itself when a man is used to it?
10799But 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?
10799But why must the faults of other people be laid at my door?
10799But why, Jack, is this dear creature so lovely, yet so invincible?--Ever heardst thou before that the sweets of May blossomed in December?
10799But 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?
10799But why?
10799But would it not be better to show her uncle the draught of the settlements, when drawn?
10799But, 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?
10799But, my dear, will you be pleased to consider what answer half a dozen people whence you came, could give to your question?
10799But, pray, Sir, to the immediate purpose of your present commission; since a commission it seems to be?
10799But, to be insulted and defied by a rebel in one''s power, what prince can bear that?
10799But, 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?
10799Can not I steal to some neighbouring house, where I may be concealed till I can get quite away?
10799Can you take no pleasure in the promised visit of Lady Betty and my cousin Montague?
10799Canst thou be more abandoned than they?
10799Captain Devilson, what care I?--Do you see how you have disordered your lady?
10799Captain Tomlinson, sayest thou?
10799Could the dear creature put Dorcas upon telling this fib, yet want to save me one?
10799Dear Ladies, is there no back- door for me to get out at while you hold him in talk?
10799Devil, as these girls between them call me, what of devil am I, but in my contrivances?
10799Did I court her at first with the allowance of her friends, her brother excepted?
10799Did I not generously spare her, when in my power?
10799Did you never go out by your- self, and discharge the coach or chair, and return>>> by another coach or chair?
10799Didst thou imagine that such a fellow as that had bowels?
10799Do I doubt, Sir, that you have not something to say for any thing you think fit to do?
10799Do n''t I look devilishly down and concerned, Landlord?
10799Do n''t you see, Madam, that your uncle wishes to find that we are married?
10799Do not the lovers, when mutual consent awaits their wills, retire to coverts, and to darkness, to complete their wishes?
10799Do they not both deserve it of me?
10799Do you know anything of Colonel Morden, friend?
10799Do you know such a man as Captain Tomlinson, my dearest life,[ aside,] your uncle''s friend?
10799Do you think I may not insist upon her absolving me from this abominable oath?
10799Does she not invade my province, thinkest thou?
10799Dost think, Jack, that my face did not now also shine?
10799Early riser as I am, how could he think to find me up thus early?
10799For am I not a smart fellow, and a rake?
10799For had not the dear creature already passed for my wife before no less than four worthy gentlemen of family and fortune?
10799Good lack-- good lack!--What may be her story then, I pray?
10799H.*** Now, Belford, what canst thou say in behalf of this sweet rogue of a lady?
10799Habit, habit, Jack, seest thou not?
10799Had I a rencounter with that brother?
10799Had I not a cursed task of it?
10799Had I not given a flagrant proof of this to the once most indulgent of parents?
10799Had not that contrivance its effect at that time, for a procrastination?
10799Had you not better see him?
10799Has 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?
10799Has my beloved kept her word with me?--Whether are these billowy heavings owing more to love or to fear?
10799Has she not broken her promise?
10799Hast thou a mind tot see what it was I permitted Miss Howe to write to her lovely friend?
10799Have I not enow of my own?
10799Have I not often said, that human nature is a rogue?
10799Have I not reason to think that she is coming about?
10799Have I not said that human nature is a rogue?
10799Have I not told thee our whole story?
10799Have not those who have a right to her renounced that right?
10799Have they not wilfully exposed her to dangers?
10799Have you more to say than has been said?
10799Have you no wish to see your uncle''s friend?
10799Have you not been in the army?
10799He has promised to keep from your uncle what has happened: but what will he think if he find you hold in this strange humour?
10799He should have been quite angry-- For what gave I him the nod positive?
10799Heartily?
10799Her senses, thought I, are much livelier than mine.--What a devil have I done, that she should be so very implacable?
10799How came she,( thought I, at the instant,) by all this penetration?
10799How can that be?
10799How did the dear creature look, Dorcas?
10799How do you, Mr. Lovelace?
10799How does she look?
10799How goes it with thy uncle?
10799How happy should I think myself to be admitted into their correspondence?
10799How 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?
10799How oddly things come about!--But does any other of the Harlowes know where we are?
10799How often, in the past twelve hours, have I wished that I could cry most confoundedly?
10799I am loth to reproach myself, now the cruel creature has escaped me; For what would that do, but add to my torment?
10799I asked, if she approved of the settlements?
10799I begged excuse for sitting down, and asked, who was the minister of the place?
10799I 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?''
10799I hoped she had no objection to my bringing that lady and my cousin Montague up with me?
10799I know the world; and will take the liberty to say, that if the young lady-- Captain Tomlinson, I think you are called?
10799I 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?
10799I told thee, Belford, all I did: Was there any thing in it so very much amiss?
10799I wait here only for a letter from Miss Howe-- that must determine me-- Determine you as to Mr. Lovelace, Madam?
10799I was the affected with it, as I am afraid it was occasioned by the violent contentions between us.--But was I in fault?
10799I was to mistrust myself, was I?
10799If I have not your pardon before Captain Tomlinson comes to town, what shall I say to him?
10799If he were a good preacher?
10799If it be pride that restrains her, ought not that pride to be punished?
10799If my advocate had nothing to say for me, what hope of carrying my cause?
10799If shame, what a shame to be ashamed to communicate to her adorer''s sight the most admirable of her personal graces?
10799If you are absolutely determined, be pleased to let me know what I shall say to your uncle?
10799In what, then, am I so singularly vile?
10799Indeed I heard him talking, thought not what he said, and am indifferent about it.--But what account does he give of himself?
10799Indeed for all you have to spare-- For who knows what my spouse''s brother may attempt?
10799Is it policy to show so open a resentment for innocent liberties, which, in her situation, she must so soon forgive?
10799Is not one country as good to me as another, if I should be obliged to take another tour upon it?
10799Is not thy uncle dead yet?
10799Is she not an Harlowe?
10799Is she not now yielding up her resentment for an attempt which she thinks she ought not to forgive?
10799Is there no possibility of getting to a coach?
10799Is this an answer to my question?
10799Is this deified passion, in its greatest altitudes, fitted to stand the day?
10799Is this the design of your flattering speeches?
10799Is this the forgiveness that was the condition of my obedience?
10799It is necessary that I should answer?
10799It is not that I shall be of party against myself?
10799Lay your hand upon your heart, and answer me, am I your wedded wife?
10799Let me ask any rake in England, if, resolving to carry his point, he would have been so long about it?
10799Let me beg of you-- What askest thou?
10799May I not re- appeal this to your own breast, as well as to Captain Tomlinson''s treaty and letter?
10799May not the ceremony be privately over, before his mediation can take place?
10799Miss 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?
10799Miss R. Give me leave to ask you, Madam, Is there no room to hope for accommodation?
10799Mutual obligation is the very essence and soul of the social and commercial life:--Why should she be exempt from it?
10799My dearest life!--Do you think that he would disapprove of the terms I have offered?
10799My heart was perfectly easy, how could my stomach be otherwise?
10799Need they know all that passes between my relations and you and me?
10799No, Madam, that''s true, if she be good- humoured, as you say-- Has she been with you long, Madam?
10799Not 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?
10799Not in the way, said I!--Whither can the dogs be gone?
10799Nothing can happen amiss, thou sorrowful dog!--What can happen amiss?
10799Now- a- days!--A fool!--Have not her history- books told her that they were always so?
10799O Jack, with such an invention, what occasion had I to carry my beloved to Mrs. Sinclair''s?
10799O 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?
10799Of Captain Singleton?
10799Once again, why and for what all these convulsions?
10799Once more wilt thou wonderingly question-- All this pains for a single girl?
10799Or should Dorcas attend her for any of her commands on that head?
10799Ought she not to be punished?
10799Patience, puppy!--Canst thou not trust thy master?
10799Perhaps, Sir, you would board, as well as lodge?
10799Poor Miss Rawlins, thought I; and dost thou know how men go?
10799Pr''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?
10799Pray, your Honour, said she, if I may be so bold, was madam ever a mamma?
10799Saw you not how bad I was?
10799Say, are we married, or are we not?
10799See we not the natural bent of idiots and the crazed?
10799See you not my Lord M. and Lady Sarah longing to bless you, for blessing me, and their whole family?
10799Seest thou not that this unseasonable gravity is admitted to quell the palpitations of this unmanageable heart?
10799Seest thou now how the raving girl threatens her mother?
10799Shall I write to the Captain, and acquaint him, that we have no objection to it?
10799She asked her if she would have bread and butter with her tea?
10799She asked him if he thought Lady Betty and Miss Montague intended her a visit?
10799She asked, if he thought I had hopes of prevailing on her to go back to town?
10799She desired to know, if she would not breakfast?
10799She paused-- then resuming-- and think you, Sir, that my uncle will refuse to receive a letter from me?
10799She started, sighing-- Are you going, Sir?
10799She talks of her father''s curse!--But have I not repaid him for it an hundred fold in the same coin?
10799She 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?
10799She then espied my new servant walking under the window, and asked if he were not one of mine?
10799Silly 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?
10799Sir, you must first allow me to repeat my question: Are you really, and bonâ fide, married to Miss Clarissa Harlowe?
10799Specious seducer!--Only tell me if I can not get away from him by some back way?
10799Surely he must deal with some fiend, or how could he have found me out?
10799That I always took care to keep seals entire, and to preserve covers?
10799That I am not at Sinclair''s?
10799The Captain and I have agreed, that it shall be so insinuated occasionally-- And what''s thy opinion, Jack?
10799The settlements still to be signed?
10799The struggle only, Whether I am to have her in my own way, or in her''s?
10799Then I fear her as much as I love her.--How shall my pride bear these reflections?
10799Then pausing, Is that the way to Hendon?
10799Then the busy Miss Rawlins fished on, to find out from her either a confirmation or disavowal of my story-- Was Lord M. my uncle?
10799Then up from my seat stumped I-- what do you call these window- curtains, Madam?
10799Then, Sir, you have no thoughts-- no thoughts--[looking still more sorrowfully,] of marrying this wonderful lady?
10799Then, turning her face towards London, she seemed, by the motion of her handkerchief to her eyes, to weep; repenting[ who knows?]
10799There''s no casting an eye upon her, is there, without her notice?
10799Thinkest thou that I could bear to be outwitted?
10799This must be all from education too-- Must it not, Belford?
10799Thou knowest I never was a sordid villain to any of her inferiors-- Her inferiors, I may say-- For who is not her inferior?
10799To 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?
10799To what purpose meet you?
10799To what purpose should I meet you to- morrow morning?
10799Tomlinson!--Why this undue condescension?
10799Very true: How should she?
10799Very well, Captain-- And was such a person employed on such an errand by her uncle?
10799Was he really of opinion that Lady Betty would pay her a visit?
10799Was it not crime enough to give occasion for those entreaties?
10799Was she so persecuted in favour of a very disagreeable man, one Solmes, as to induce her to throw herself into my protection?
10799Well but, Sir, have you then any commission to me from Mr. John Harlowe?
10799Well observed-- Can''t you, Landlord, lend or sell me a pair of stockings, that will draw over these?
10799Well, friend, what is your business with Mr. and Mrs. Lovelace?
10799Well, my dearest life, what say you to your uncle''s expedient?
10799Were it not for surprises now- and- then, how would an honest man know where to have them?
10799What a triumph has her sex obtained in my thoughts by this trial, and this resistance?
10799What can I have in view but peace and reconciliation?
10799What can be still in his head, to endeavour to pass these stories upon strangers?
10799What can you then think of Tomlinson''s declar- ing himself in favour of it upon inquiry?
10799What canst thou say for her?
10799What 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?''
10799What had I to do to go out a license- hunting, at least till I had seen her, and made up matters with her?
10799What hadst thou seen in the conduct of Clarissa Harlowe, that should encourage such an insult upon her as thou didst dare to make?
10799What 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?
10799What have been her trials?
10799What hinders, dearest Madam, what now hinders, but that Lady Betty Lawrance, when she comes, may be acquainted with the truth of every thing?
10799What is his name?
10799What is there in being enabled to boast, that I am worth more than I can use, or wish to use?
10799What man or woman, who is covetous of power, or of making a right use of it?
10799What need I( she asks me,) lock myself in,** if I am only reading past correspondencies?
10799What pretence hast thou for tormenting me thus?
10799What right, what title, have you to persecute me thus?
10799What said my dear mother?
10799What then but remorse can follow a forcible attempt?
10799What was his conduct to you afterwards, that you should of a sudden change it?
10799What widow, what servant, asks questions of a man with an equipage?
10799What will the people below, who suppose us one as to the ceremony, think of so great a niceness?
10799What would you have me answer?
10799What''s the matter, Dorcas?
10799What, my dear, would you have me say to the Captain to- morrow morning?
10799What, pray, Sir, is your question?
10799When, Sir, shall you want to come in?
10799When, when was it to be?
10799Whence, however, this strange rhapsody?--Is it owing to my being here?
10799Where can a woman be safe, who has once entered the lists with a contriving and intrepid lover?
10799Where is he?
10799Where, Madam?
10799Whither does that path lead, out yonder?--What is that town on the right hand called?
10799Who can blame him?
10799Who knows, thought I to myself, but more may come of this plot, than I had even promised myself?
10799Who preached at the Chapel?
10799Whom came you from?
10799Why brought I such an angel into such a house?
10799Why must I be thus pursued and haunted?
10799Why not?
10799Why 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?
10799Why then thy teasing impertinence?
10799Why will these girls put me upon my master- strokes?
10799Why, 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?
10799Why, Sir, should I be so much afraid of my brother?
10799Will not these trembling fingers, which twice have refused to direct the pen, fail me in the arduous moment?
10799Will you permit me to attend you in the morning, before I set out on my return?
10799Will you, Madam, consent that things pass as before with the people below?
10799With a face so unblushing, how darest thou appear in my presence?
10799Would there have been a second of time difference, had you come up slowly?
10799Wouldst thou make a merit to me, that thou didst not utterly ruin her whom thou oughtest to have protected?
10799Yes, 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?
10799Yes, ride, Jack; for am I not lame?
10799Yes, wife, for who knows what cautions the dear fugitive may have given in apprehension of me?
10799Yet have I not always done her justice?
10799Yet what mercy does she show me?
10799You 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?''
10799You will not wonder that I am grave on this detection-- Detection, must I call it?
10799You will then breakfast with me, Captain?
10799Your 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?]
10799and had I not then reason to fear, that the lady would find enough to make her dislike this house?
10799and that I am not still further prepared to support my story?
10799be 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?
10799been my servant upwards of seven years?
10799but can you think of force to such a fine creature?
10799for disappointing me of a promised interview?
10799for dost thou think I would have tamely given up the lady to Townsend''s tars?
10799have I not told thee so twenty times over?
10799hide me!--Is he gone?
10799how can you put such a question?
10799into such company?--And why do I not stop my ears to the sirens, who, knowing my aversion to wedlock, are perpetually touching that string?
10799lie in the house?
10799never, my angel!--Is this forgiveness?
10799or are you not yet married?
10799or have had so much compunction as I have had?
10799said he, who can but pity him?
10799said she, lifting up her lovely face, and clasped hands, what is at last to be my destiny?
10799said she: the license still to be obtained?
10799say.--Who knows, but that I may in time, in compliment to myself, bring her to think well of thee, Jack?
10799so little a way?''
10799that thus far I rave against?
10799thinkest thou that I will take all this roguish pains, and be so often called villain for nothing?
10799who can say as you say?
10799why beat you thus together?
10799wouldst thou have me decline a trial that they make for the honour of a sex we all so dearly love?
10799yet) 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?
9881A Clarissa!--Was your love for such a man above your reason?
9881Above your resolution?
9881All hands at work in preparation for London.--What makes my heart beat so strong?
9881All this is mighty good, Sir: But to what does it tend?
9881Am I already lord of the destiny of a Clarissa Harlowe?
9881Am I already the reformed man thou resolvest I should be, before I had the least encouragement given me?
9881And I verily think I should be inclined to spare her all further trial( and yet what trial has she had?)
9881And again the wretch, instead of pressing his former question, asked me, If I forgave him for the humble suit he had made to me?
9881And 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?
9881And as to this man, what can I do?
9881And 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?
9881And can she keep this love at bay?
9881And can there be a necessity for me to answer this?
9881And 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?
9881And do I not see that I shall need nothing but patience, in order to have all power with me?
9881And do not her faults bring more disgrace upon a husband than even upon herself?''
9881And does this lady spare me?
9881And for which her own family will not forgive her?
9881And had not the rencounter then happened?
9881And if he had, would not there have been an end of all his pretensions and hopes?
9881And is her virtue founded in pride?--And, if the answer to these questions be affirmative, must she not then be a woman?''
9881And is not the man the most wicked of plotters?
9881And is she capable of affectation?
9881And may not such an apprehension give her an irreconcilable displeasure against me?
9881And now I mention that letter, why dost thou not wish me joy, Jack?
9881And 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?
9881And now, let me tell thee, that never was joy so complete as mine!--But let me inquire, is not the angel flown away?
9881And shall I marry a woman, who has given me reason to doubt the preference she has for me?
9881And shall I not first see the issue of one application?
9881And shall that necessary increase of care sit uneasy upon us, because we are grown up to stature and womanhood?
9881And then I asked him, what he really, and in his most deliberate mind, would advise me to, in my present situation?
9881And 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?
9881And then, did I ever make him any promises?
9881And what can a lover say to his mistress, if she will neither let him lie nor swear?
9881And what could the lady say to this?
9881And what did you intend to do to Mr. Solmes?
9881And what have you not borne from them?
9881And what results?--''Is then the divine Clarissa capable of loving a man whom she ought not to love?
9881And what was this?
9881And what, Madam, will gaining time do?
9881And what, at this rate, is the general conclusion to be drawn from the premises?--Is it not, That no man ought to be vain?
9881And when our dangers multiply, both from within and without, do not our parents know, that their vigilance ought to be doubled?
9881And whether she be to be a wife at the first or at the second hand?
9881And who ever knew a rake stick at any thing?
9881And who has a right to controul a father''s judgment in his own family, and in relation to his own child?
9881And who knows what opportunities a man in love may have against himself?
9881And who shall put her to this trial?
9881And why is her own reliance on my honour so late and so reluctantly shown?
9881And why shouldst thou tempt her virtue?--Why shouldst thou wish to try where there is no reason to doubt?
9881And will not the reflections upon that wrong( what though it may be construed in my favour?
9881And will you, will you thus ungenerously, Mr. Lovelace, take advantage of my fears?
9881And 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?
9881And yet, on second thoughts, am I not a rake, as it is called?
9881And you will be honnerable and kind to my dearest young lady, God love her.--But who can be unkind to she?
9881And, if not, was she to be so prevailed upon to prevent an apprehended evil only?
9881And, indeed, for what now should she plot?
9881Are you not gone off?--With a Lovelace too?
9881But I am afraid that you was too scrupulous: for did he not resent that reference?
9881But again, let me stop.--Is there not something wrong, has there not been something wrong, in this divine creature?
9881But are not all rakes sad fellows?--And art not thou, to thy little power, as bad as any?
9881But can it be your opinion, that he intends to humble me down to the level of his mean pride?
9881But can the heart of man be so very vile?
9881But do you think I might not be safe and private in London?
9881But had he not been passive, as you call it, what would you have done to Mr. Solmes?
9881But has she had the candour, the openness, to acknowledge that love?
9881But has she not, as above, already taken steps, which she herself condemns?
9881But here comes the widow with Dorcas Wykes in her hand, and I am to introduce them both to my fair- one?
9881But how came it to pass, that one man could get out at the garden- door, and no more?
9881But how shall I do to make my fair- one keep her temper on the intimation?
9881But how wilt thou hinder the lady from apprizing her friend of the real name?
9881But 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?
9881But 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?
9881But in exercising that talent, chooses rather to turn its eye outward than inward?
9881But is it not a confounded thing that I can not fasten an obligation upon this proud beauty?
9881But is it not my duty to try for it?
9881But is not that pride abated?
9881But knowest thou not my aversion to the state of shackles?--And is she not IN MY POWER?
9881But let me ask thee, Is not calamity the test of virtue?
9881But let me ask you, Madam, What have you borne from me?
9881But let me, in my turn, ask thee-- Is not, may not her virtue be founded rather in pride than in principle?
9881But once more, consider, could you possibly obtain that delay which seems to be your only dependence, whether you may not be closer confined?
9881But seest thou not now( as I think I do) the wind outstripping fair one flying from her love to her love?
9881But since I can not, will you be so good as to tell me what you would wish to have done?
9881But what could I say to this?--Extorted from him, as it seemed to me, rather as the effect of his compassion than his love?
9881But what dost think Deb''s name is to be?
9881But what, methinks thou askest, is to become of the lady if she fail?
9881But why did not the man show me these letters last night?
9881But why should she be more concerned for the safety of others than they were for their own?
9881But why shoulde it?
9881But why will this admirable creature urge her destiny?
9881But why, as in the chariot, as in the inn, at alighting, all heart- bursting grief, my dearest creature?
9881But why, but why unhappy, my dearest life?
9881But you ask me, if I would treat Mr. Lovelace, were he to be in Mr. Hickman''s place, as I do Mr. Hickman?
9881But you want to clear up things-- what can you clear up?
9881But, once more, can it be?
9881By all this, seest thou not how greatly preferable it is, on twenty accounts, to pursue a difficult rather than an easy chace?
9881By such exalted qualities?
9881Ca n''t you go on, Sir?
9881Ca n''t you go on, Sir?
9881Can I avoid concern, when those bickerings are on my account?
9881Can he, dare he, mock the Almighty?
9881Can she make him, who has been accustomed to triumph over other women, tremble?
9881Can you expect to be happy?
9881Can you think that Heaven will seal to the black passions of its depraved creatures?
9881Common bruit!--Is virtue to be established by common bruit only?--Has her virtue ever been proved?--Who has dared to try her virtue?
9881Did I ever profess a love for him?
9881Did I ever wish for the continuance of his address?
9881Did I not furnish you with stories enough, without hers, against myself, to augment your credit with your cunning masters?
9881Did she ever receive him as a lover?
9881Did she ever, she asks, make him any promises?
9881Did she persist in it against parental prohibition?
9881Did they not, at their own church, cluster together like bees, when they saw me enter it?
9881Did you not do for the best at the time?
9881Didst thou ever before hear of a man uttering solemn things by an involuntary impulse, in defiance of premeditation, and of all his proud schemes?
9881Do 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?
9881Do not their grandmothers give them one easy rule-- Men are to ask-- Women are to deny?
9881Do you propose, Sir, said I, to take up your lodgings in the house where I shall lodge?
9881Do you think me the jay in the fable?
9881Do you think that my unhappy circumstances will alter my notions of my own duty so far as I shall be enabled to perform it?
9881Does not your brother''s project convince you more and more of this?
9881Does she not outdo me at every fair weapon?
9881Except your mother, who has no will of her own, have any of them common sense?
9881For how should I have resisted a condescending, a kneeling father, had he been able to have kept his temper with me?
9881For 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?
9881For is not a wife the keeper of a man''s honour?
9881Grief 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?
9881Has not God commanded us to bless and curse not?
9881Has not your family, Madam, some one tradesman they deal with, who has conveniences of this kind?
9881Has she been capable of error?
9881Has she not made me doubt her love?
9881Has she not taken officious pains to declare that she was not averse to Solmes for any respect she had to me?
9881Hast thou not been a witness of my ravings on this score?
9881Hast thou not reason to think it so?
9881Have I not had it in my heart to do some good that thou canst not remind me of?
9881Have I not, in the height of them, vowed revenge upon the faithless charmer?
9881Have I offered to defy the laws of society, as this brother of yours must do, if any thing be intended by this project?
9881Have we not suffered in the same cause?
9881Have you any acquaintance at Windsor?
9881He asked me to give him leave to propose, whether I chose to set out next day to either of his aunts?
9881He asked whether I would choose to lodge in the town of Windsor, or out of it?
9881He asked, if I had considered whither to have them directed?
9881He 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?)
9881He is not a bashful man.--But you say, I inspire people with an awe of me.--An awe, my dear!--As how?
9881How can I obtain possession without litigation, and but by my trustees?
9881How can a daughter of spirits bear such language; such looks too with the language; and not have a longing mind to disobey?
9881How comes it about, I wonder, that a young lady so noted for predominating generosity, should not be uniformly generous?
9881How could this man, with such powers of right thinking, be so far depraved by evil habits, as to disgrace his talents by wrong acting?
9881How often, Mr. Lovelace, must I repeat, that I will not litigate with my father?
9881How shall I take it?
9881Humble a woman, and may she not be effectually humbled?
9881I 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?
9881I asked him( to hear what he would say) if he could recommend me to any particular place in London?
9881I asked him, if he thought such enormities as these, such defiances of the laws of society, would have passed unpunished?
9881I asked, in some confusion, what he would say?
9881I do to every body; and why?
9881I have but this one chance for it; for is not the day after to- morrow Wednesday?
9881I intended, indeed, to have stood it: And, if I had, how know I by whose name I might now have been called?
9881I may send to you, although you are forbid to write to me; may I not?--For that is not a correspondence( is it?)
9881I now, my dear, began to revive into a little more warmth of attention.--''And all, Madam, for what?''
9881I shall have him[ Who knows?]
9881I think you mentioned one to me, Sir-- Did you not?
9881I 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?
9881If I can have her without marriage, who can blame me for trying?
9881If all this is heavy, lay your hand to your heart, and ask yourself, why you have deserved it?
9881If he has had any extraordinary trouble on my account, may he not thank himself for it?
9881If his pretences to reformation are but pretences, what must be his intent?
9881If impeccable, how came she by her impeccability?
9881If mutual, does it not imply mutual trust, mutual confidence?
9881If not what her niceness makes her think blameworthy, why does she blame herself?
9881If not, what may be the consequence?
9881If thou designest to be honest, methinkst thou sayest, Why should not Singleton''s plot be over with thee, as it is with her brother?
9881If well, whose modesty is it he distresses, but that of his own wife?
9881If you would have me rely upon your honour, why should you doubt of mine?
9881In justice to the man I shall have, I have vowed this: for, my dear, must I not be miserable, if you are so?
9881In 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?
9881In what manner do you expect to confirm it?
9881Indeed, 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?
9881Is every body to take advantage thus of the weakness of my temper?
9881Is it in my power to take your advice, if I should think it ever so right to take it?
9881Is it not dealing ingenuously?
9881Is it now, my dear, a time for you to be afraid of being precipitated?
9881Is it so hard for you, my dear, to be treated like a child?
9881Is 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?
9881Is not that seen every day, from the prince to the peasant?
9881Is not the space from sixteen to twenty- one that which requires this care, more than at any time of a young woman''s life?
9881Is not then the whole sex concerned that this trial should be made?
9881Is 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?
9881It would be a miracle, as thou sayest, if this lady can save herself-- And having gone so far, how can I recede?
9881It 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?
9881Jack, when I see my angel, when I am admitted to the presence of this radiant beauty, what will become of all this vapouring?
9881James and Arabella may have their motives; but what can be said for a father acting as this father has acted?
9881Joy, of what?
9881Let LOVE then be the motive:--Love of whom?
9881Let 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?
9881Let me hear, said I,( willing to try if he had any particular view,) what you think most advisable?
9881Lord have mercy upon me!--But can it be?
9881Love you still!--How can I help it, if I would?
9881Lovelace?--said I-- Would you thus expose yourself?
9881Malice 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?
9881May I send it safely by your old man?
9881May not more Lovelaces be attracted by so fine a figure?
9881May there not be other Lovelaces, thou askest, who, attracted by her beauty, may endeavour to prevail with her?
9881Mean time, would I go to Lady Betty Lawrance''s( Lady Sarah was a melancholy woman)?
9881More than a match?
9881Must I never be at liberty to follow my own judgment?
9881Must not all, the dreadful all follow, that is torture to my heart but to think of?
9881My 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?
9881My maiden vow, as I may call it!--For did not the sex begin with me?
9881My mind is, that you, Sir, should leave me out of hand-- How often must I tell you so?
9881Nor ask thou, shall the man be guilty, yet expect the woman to be guiltless, and even unsuspectible?
9881O Sir, do you want to be complimented into repentance and salvation?
9881O my dearest creature, do these preparations mean only a trial?
9881Of persisting in that error?
9881One evil draws on another after it; and how knows she, or any body, where it may stop?
9881Or is it Solomon?--King Solomon-- Thou remembrest to have read of such a king, dost thou not?
9881Ought 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?
9881Shall I go and fetch the worthy woman myself?
9881Shall I send?
9881Shall not others as they please?
9881She consented; and asked what security I expected?
9881She must first know it herself, monkey, must she not?
9881She would not see him in a dishabille for the world-- What can she mean by it?
9881Shun 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?
9881So 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?
9881So, Sir, you would have me employ a lawyer, would you, notwithstanding what I have ever declared as to litigating with my father?
9881Steps, which the world and her own family did not think her capable of taking?
9881Surely 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?
9881Tell me not of politeness; tell me not of generosity; tell me not of compassion-- Is she not a match for me?
9881That I am not one who improve upon her in my conversation and address?''
9881That 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?
9881That she knows better than to value herself upon my volubility?
9881That she shall never forgive herself for meeting me, nor me for seducing her away?''
9881That 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?
9881That they are raised( instigated shall I say?)
9881That you are determined to have it in your power to favour or reject me totally, as you please?''
9881That your generosity should fail in an instance where policy, prudence, gratitude, would not permit it to fail?
9881The man to be so bashful; the woman to want so much courting!--How shall two such come together-- no kind mediatress in the way?
9881The wretch you are with, we are told, is every hour triumphing and defying-- Must not these informations aggravate?
9881Then who says Miss Clarissa Harlowe is the paragon of virtue?--Is virtue itself?
9881Then, what a triumph would it be to the Harlowe pride, were I now to marry this lady?
9881Thou seest what bias here takes-- And wilt thou doubt that mine will be determined by it?
9881To banish me from thee, to insist so rigorously upon my absence, in order to bring me closer to thee, and make the blessing dear?
9881To be clamoured at for repairs studied for, rather than really wanted?
9881To be denied a fox- chace, for breaking down a fence upon my own grounds?
9881To leave you now, would be to lose you for ever-- Am I to be thus compelled?
9881To my point--''What must that virtue be which will not stand a trial?--What that woman who would wish to shun it?''
9881To the test then, as I said, since now I have the question brought home to me, Whether I am to have a wife?
9881Upon these principles, what had I to do but to construe her silence into contemptuous displeasure?
9881Was a daughter ever known who had higher notions of the filial duty, of the parental authority?
9881Was he afraid of giving me too much pleasure?
9881Was he not called, by his very soldiers, on one of his triumphant entries into Rome, the bald- pated lecher?
9881Was it Socrates?
9881Was not the great Caesar a great rake as to women?
9881Was there ever a giddier creature?--Yet this is the celebrated, the blazing Clarissa-- Clarissa what?
9881We have had a charming dialogue-- She flung from me in a passion-- So-- What''s now to be done?
9881Well, but how comes all this about?
9881Well, but what in such a situation is to be done?
9881Were not her faults, before this, numerous enough?
9881Were not his objections as to the publicness of the place, I asked him, as strong now as before?
9881What a wicked schemer you are, Sir!--Who shall avenge upon you the still greater evils which you have been guilty of?
9881What an useful lesson would this afford, were it properly inculcated at the time that the tempted mind was balancing upon a doubtful adventure?
9881What books can tell her more than she knows?
9881What can one oppose but sullens, when it would be unpardonable so much as to think of lifting up a finger?
9881What cause have I given you to treat me with so much severity and so little confidence?
9881What could I say?
9881What could he mean by letting slip such a one as that you mention?
9881What 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?
9881What followed this execution?
9881What for a mother?
9881What for an aunt?
9881What for uncles?--Who can have patience with such fellows and fellowesses?
9881What had I to do but to try for a palliation of my confusion, since it served me not?
9881What is that, Sir?
9881What is the conclusion to be drawn from these premises?
9881What is the love of a rakish heart?
9881What likelihood of corrupting a man who has no hope, no ambition?
9881What may not both men and women be brought to do in a mortified state?
9881What mean you, Mr. Lovelace?
9881What means he by it, she asks, yet forego such opportunities as he had?
9881What mind is superior to calamity?
9881What now sayest thou to me, Belford?
9881What politeness can be expected from such a man?
9881What say you, Mr. Lovelace?
9881What sayest thou to the lady, Jack?
9881What signifies wishing, my dear?
9881What will signify expostulations against a ceremony performed?
9881What, my dear, would you clear up?
9881What?--Why will she not,''if once subdued, be always subdued?''
9881When 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?
9881When has that been questionable?
9881When 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?
9881Whence can this be, but from a likeness in nature?
9881Whence this change, Sir?
9881Whether I chose to go to either of Lord M.''s seats; that of Berks, or that in the county we were in?
9881Whether I chose to have private lodgings procured for me in either of those ladies''neighbourhood, as were once my thoughts?
9881Whither, Sir, do you draw me?--Leave me this moment-- Do you seek to keep me till my return shall grow dangerous or impracticable?
9881Who can avoid hesitating when he thinks of an offence against her?
9881Who has declared that she will not marry me, till she has hopes of my reformation?
9881Who knows what such a man may do?
9881Who will be afraid of a trail for this divine creature?
9881Who will dare to form plots and stratagems against my wife?
9881Who, so unprepared, could seem to be so ready?
9881Whose daughter is she?--And is she not a daughter?
9881Why did you meet him then, chariot and six, horsemen, all prepared by him?
9881Why mention you, my dear, the saving you from mortifications, who have gone off with a man?
9881Why rises it to my throat in such half- choking flutters, when I think of what this removal may do for me?
9881Why said he with a man, instead of with him?
9881Why should I not, when it is as much the desire of my heart, as it is of thine, to prevent mischief?
9881Why should narrowness run away with the praises due to a noble expansion of heart?
9881Why should she hate the man who loves her upon proof?
9881Why this squeamishness then, honest Joseph?
9881Why to Windsor?
9881Why will she defy the power she is absolutely dependent upon?
9881Why will she deny me her company, till she makes me lose my patience, and lay myself open to her resentment?
9881Why will she put me upon looking back?
9881Why will she still wish to my face that she had never left her father''s house?
9881Why would not the dear creature accept of me, when I so sincerely offered myself to her acceptance?
9881Why, Sir, do n''t I neither use ceremony enough with you?
9881Why, is she not here?
9881Why, says he, did I not think of it before?--And snatching my hand, Shall I write, Madam?
9881Why?
9881Will the man you are with part willingly with you?
9881Would I choose to go to London( for a very few days only) in order to furnish myself with clothes?
9881Would she not have me think I have a precious soul, as well as she?
9881Would she not, do you think, my dear, be prevailed upon to have the communication made to her, in confidence?
9881Would you have me visit the owners of the borrowed dresses in their own clothes?
9881Would you stay to be Solmes''s wife?--Can this be your determination at last?
9881Would you thus expose me?--Is this your generosity?
9881Would you, Mr. Lovelace, in earnest, advise me to think of going to London?
9881Yet what stead has either your prudence or your duty stood you in, with people so strangely determined?
9881Yet, in my disapprobation of that, I judge by that event only: for who would have divined it would have been concluded as it did?
9881You would not surely wish, said he, to fall into your brother''s hands by such a violent measure as this?
9881Your 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?
9881Your merits, my dear, but aggravate your fault.--Something of fresh aggravation every hour.--How can any favour be expected?
9881Your poor mother-- but why should I afflict you?
9881Your sufferings then, if you please, Sir?
9881Yourself being judge, I suppose, Sir?
9881[ draw me not thus-- How dare you, Sir?
9881and her sorrow for putting herself out of his reach, that is to say, for meeting me?
9881and if thou pleadest honour, ought not honour to be mutual?
9881and so soon?
9881and warning given of him to the wives, as well as to the daughter of his fellow- citizens?
9881are you so critical then?
9881does she propose to reform me for?
9881for he had the devil of a wife-- Or who?
9881how, that that man kept aloof, as it were, and pursued us not; nor ran back to alarm the house?
9881let me only know whether you intend to leave me; or whether I have only escaped from one confinement to another?
9881methinks thou askest.--Thou, Lovelace, dealest in wonders, yet aimest not at the marvellous!--How did all this come about?
9881of my wishes to prevent mischief?
9881said I.--Know you of any convenient lodgings there?
9881that 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?
9881thought I,[ but I charge thee, that thou let not any of the sex know my exultation,*] Is it so soon come to this?
9881what 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?
9881yet how, as long as I am situated, can I put them right?
61344''Do you see this woman? 61344 A guardian?"
61344About the whole thing, about this poor pitiful, pitiable human race that''s got itself into such an awful mess?
61344Address?
61344After you''ve left Harvard what are you going to be?
61344And after your birthday was changed from the fifth of March--?
61344And are you going to?
61344And are you?
61344And did he say how big a damn fool he was himself?
61344And did he say how it had ended?
61344And did you give it to her?
61344And did you have, mudda?
61344And did you never get any idea at all?
61344And do you get it?
61344And does she think I''d torture her?
61344And for another?
61344And has that certainty got anything to do with me?
61344And have you any explanation why?
61344And her parents''names?
61344And if I see, would Hildred also see?
61344And if you ca n''t find out pretty certainly whose son I am--?
61344And is he coming back for you here?
61344And is that what you''re going to do now?
61344And that I...."Oh, Tom, you''ll be reasonable, wo n''t you?
61344And then?
61344And was he?
61344And what about college?
61344And what did she give you, Lord Ronald, my son? 61344 And what does he say to things now?"
61344And when daytime comes could I go to the jail?
61344And when''ll that be?
61344And when?
61344And who in hell gave you authority to do that?
61344And you do n''t?
61344And you really think he''s your father, Tom?
61344And you were fond of her?
61344And you_ don''t_--feel it there?
61344Are you all right, darling?
61344Are you awake, Tom?
61344Are you sorry it happened, Tom?
61344Are you, Kid? 61344 Ask me what?"
61344At Harvard they call you the Whitelaw Baby, do n''t they?
61344At any rate we know what to do about Tad, do n''t we? 61344 Because I''m the mother?
61344Boy''s name?
61344But had n''t you told them anything about it?
61344But how did you know?
61344But if I''m not?
61344But if it''s to do them good?
61344But ought we to do good to people against their wills?
61344But what would you like better?
61344But why not, if it was proved that--?
61344But would n''t that be something like burglary?
61344But would n''t you be arrested?
61344But would you mind telling me, sir, something of what you''d expect from me?
61344But you always love your wife when you''re married to her, do n''t you?
61344But you raised an alarm? 61344 But you want me, do n''t you, mudda?"
61344But you wo n''t go on doing it, not as far as I''m concerned?
61344But you would n''t if I asked you not to, would you, ma?
61344But, Mr. Honeybun, suppose someone took something from you? 61344 But,"the boy cried in alarm,"where can we go, if we do n''t?"
61344Ca n''t I be-- what I''ve made myself?
61344Ca n''t you do better than that?
61344Call it off? 61344 Can I go to it?"
61344Can I have a word with you in private?
61344Can he make himself love you, ma?
61344Can you beat it? 61344 Can you drive a car?"
61344Changed toward us-- toward me?
61344Could I see his nurse?
61344Could n''t I be your son-- and make my home somewhere else?
61344Did I have the same fadda what Gracie had?
61344Did I say anything about letting a woman in on my game?
61344Did I?
61344Did he tell you what I said to him, that nothing would induce me to belong to the family that had produced him?
61344Did n''t I tell you the last time I saw you that if you ever interfered with me again--?
61344Did n''t your mother ever take you to see anyone?
61344Did she ever say anything about it, about what kind of day it was, or anything at all that you can remember?
61344Did she tell you so?
61344Did she--he pulled himself together for the big words--"did she take cyanide of potassium?"
61344Did you ever see Tad over there?
61344Did you like it over there?
61344Did you like it?
61344Do I suppose she''s playin''the dooce with yer? 61344 Do about what?"
61344Do n''t you ever go to the movies?
61344Do we go straight across to the Pennsylvania Station, to take the train for Wilmington, or do we have to wait?
61344Do 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?
61344Do you care to go?
61344Do you know what I call you? 61344 Do you know what I''m going to do with you?"
61344Do you like him?
61344Do you mean that you would n''t want to live with us?
61344Do you mean to say that-- having the choice between-- that-- and me-- you choose-- that?
61344Do you remember me?
61344Do you suppose it_ ever_ could come true?
61344Do you think he''ll die?
61344Do you think you''re our son?
61344Do you want to come and be introduced to a lot of people, or would you rather browse about by yourself? 61344 Do you?"
61344Ever dance?
61344Ever see a fellow named Thorne Carstairs?
61344Fight? 61344 For goodness''sake, what''s putting this into your head?
61344Friends?
61344From whom?
61344God''s up in the sky, is n''t He?
61344Guy, for heaven''s sake, what''s that?
61344Had n''t I better go, Mr. Whitelaw? 61344 Have I got to give you an answer, Maisie?
61344Have n''t I said so time and again? 61344 Have one?"
61344Have one?
61344Have you got any tobacco?
61344He has n''t done very well with you, has he?
61344He looks more than that, does n''t he?
61344He might as well stay, might n''t he?
61344He''s a fine kid,the policeman commended, before going away,"and wo n''t give you no trouble, will you, sonny?"
61344Heard the row, have n''t you?
61344Hello?
61344Hildred, do you really feel like that?
61344How 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?
61344How could we?
61344How d''ye do? 61344 How did he get that name?"
61344How did you come to know the Ansleys so well?

61344How long have you been back?
61344How much did you ever care about me?
61344How old are you?
61344How old are you?
61344How old would that make him if he were living now?
61344How would you know when you were sure?
61344How''s ma?
61344How''s ma?
61344How''s ma?
61344How- d''ye- do? 61344 How_ can_ I be convinced?
61344Hurdles? 61344 I did n''t know myself till late last night, did I, Mrs. Whitelaw?
61344I say, mate, what can I do for yer?
61344I suppose he can sleep in the barn, ca n''t he?
61344I think you''re a steady boy, are n''t you?
61344I 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?
61344If I wad Gracie I''d be a little girl, would n''t I?
61344If I''ve got to go anywheres I can go without your tearing the clothes off my back, ca n''t I?
61344If 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?
61344If he turned out a rotter would you care more than if it was anybody else?
61344If he''s your second husband''s child why is he called by your first husband''s name?
61344If it do n''t bite me none, why not let it go at that?
61344If you had-- what?
61344If your first stipulation is love...."Would n''t it be yours, Onora?
61344Is Tad to be at home?
61344Is anything the matter?
61344Is he dead?
61344Is it money?
61344Is it, Hildred? 61344 Is n''t all this fuss what I''m tellin''yer?
61344Is she-- dead?
61344Is that because there was so much to be spent on me?
61344Is that final, sir?
61344Is that what a communist is, a fellow who''ll contend with two?
61344Is that what you''re baking?
61344Is there no way by which I can be taken as myself?
61344It''s a kind of religion, is n''t it?
61344Lived there all your life?
61344Loot pretty good?
61344Lord love yer, Kiddy, what''s bitin''yer now?

61344Mrs. Whitelaw wo n''t mind, will you, Mrs. Whitelaw? 61344 Mudda, did Gracie have a fadda?"

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

61344She 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?"
61344Sit there, will you?
61344So he''s sent you, has he? 61344 So she said that?"
61344So that you have n''t taken a shine to me-- yet?
61344Something-- like what?
61344State ward, ai n''t he?

61344Stop us from--?
61344Suppose we do n''t bring that up just yet? 61344 Suppose we wait till the question arises?
61344That it was you? 61344 That''s the big private school in Marlborough Street, is n''t it?"
61344The name of the gentleman who left this afternoon?
61344Then why do they seem to hate me so?
61344Then why in thunder do you keep butting in--?
61344Then you think the position would be a false one?
61344They think what queer?
61344Think of you-- what about?
61344Till your father and mother die?
61344Tom, are you? 61344 Too late?
61344Wadn''t there never no Gracie, mudda?
61344Wait-- for how long?
61344Was it Hildred Ansley?

61344Well, Tom, what''s your answer to my letter?
61344Well, 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?"
61344Well, do you think I would?
61344Well, if you were going to do that-- what of it?
61344Well, it wo n''t be you, will it?
61344Well, then, did n''t anyone ever come to see her?

61344What would be the use of my caring if papa was satisfied?
61344What''d a clergyman know about_ my_ soul? 61344 What''ll I sing, Troublesome?"

61344What''ll you will to your truelove, Lord Ronald, my son? 61344 What''s a stevedore?
61344What''s changed?
61344What''s happened? 61344 What''s it now?"
61344What''s it to you whether I''ve got sense or not?
61344What''s not good enough?
61344What''s that for?
61344What''s the good of it anyhow?
61344What''s the good of that line of talk? 61344 What''s the matter with her?"
61344What''s the matter with them?
61344What''s the matter, mudda?
61344What''s the use of beginning if there''s nothing to go on with?

61344What''s your guardian do?
61344What''s your name?
61344What_ do_ you know about your father?
61344When and how?
61344When did you come? 61344 When does he want me to come?"
61344When you say that you do n''t want to, exactly what do you mean?
61344Where do you live?
61344Where do you live?
61344Where have you been dining, Lord Ronald, my son? 61344 Where in thunder did you get that?"
61344Where is she?
61344Where were she and your father married?
61344Where were you born?
61344Where''d you live before that?
61344Where''s he to sleep?
61344Where? 61344 Who said anything about danger?
61344Who said that?
61344Who was that?
61344Who''s Miss Lily?
61344Who''s a crook?
61344Who''s a cry- baby?
61344Who''s that?
61344Who''s the boy what his mother was put in jaaa- il?
61344Who''s the boy what his mother was put in jail?
61344Who? 61344 Why ca n''t we?"
61344Why ca n''t you say_ Yep_, like anybody else?
61344Why did n''t you do something about it then,Tad put in, peevishly,"if you were going to do anything at all?"
61344Why do n''t we go home, dad?
61344Why do n''t you get money where you got it before?
61344Why do n''t you smoke?

61344Why queer?
61344Why 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?"
61344Why, what have you been doing to yourself? 61344 Will they take her away in a long black box?"
61344Will you come back a minute, please?
61344Will you sit there, Whitelaw?
61344Will you step in here, sir, and I''ll tell the master that you''ve come?
61344Wo n''t you sit down?
61344Wondering what?
61344Would it be of any help if I were to withdraw?
61344Would you go with him?
61344Would you like to look at them?
61344Would you rather that your little boy was found?--or that he was n''t found?
61344Yer''d be arrested if yer did n''t look out; but what''s bein''arrested? 61344 Yes, Miss Ansley?"
61344Yes, but could n''t you do that and be Harry Whitelaw-- if you_ are_ Harry Whitelaw-- at the same time?
61344Yes, but how did you ever...?
61344Yes, but what do you want to be like that for? 61344 Yes, but what''ll he do for money?"
61344Yes, but you do n''t think the bigness ought to stop us, do you?
61344Yes, dad? 61344 You do n''t mean this Tom, do you, old lady?"
61344You do n''t want to do it, hey?
61344You got a job?
61344You have n''t, have you?
61344You like the idea of going with Guy?
61344You mean that Tad''s on probation?
61344You mean that you do think I''m the lost Whitelaw baby?
61344You mean that--?
61344You remember your mother?
61344You see what, Maisie?
61344You''ll come over with me, wo n''t you?
61344You''re brothers?
61344You''re not going to say that it is n''t a real diamond?
61344You''re sure of all that?
61344You''re sure you wo n''t be lonesome, Honey?
61344You''ve been in the army, have n''t you?
61344You''ve been married since I saw you last, have n''t you?
61344You''ve done--_what_?
61344You''ve got a use for me? 61344 You''ve just arrived with Miss Ansley, have n''t you?"
61344Your 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?
61344Ai n''t yer a Christian, Goody?"
61344All 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?"
61344All the same--""Yes, Tom; all the same-- what?"
61344And do n''t that belong to us?
61344And if nobody else tries to find out, why should I, when he''s been so awful nice to me?"
61344And if you saw it, could you miss it and pass it by?
61344And what did she give you, my handsome young man?"
61344And yer did spend the money a- takin''her about, now did n''t yer?"
61344And you never heard anything more about her?"
61344Are n''t there animals in this Park?
61344Are we never going to be anything but fools?"
61344Are yez puttin''a knife in him?
61344At one o''clock?"
61344Because-- what?
61344But if they''re satisfied that you''re--""And if I''m not satisfied?"
61344But they''re dead wrong, see?
61344But time does avenge one, does n''t it?"
61344But what could he do?
61344But what''s a few months in chokey when you''re doin''it for yer feller creeters, to show''em what their rights is?"
61344But what''s a man to do when he sees a beautiful young lady in danger o''bein''killed?"
61344But what''s that to us?
61344But what''s the use?
61344But 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?...
61344But you''d like first to go to your room, would n''t you?
61344But, Lord, what''s a eye, even to a Socialist, when yer can do somethink for a feller creeter?"
61344But, oh, Tom, what can we do about it that-- that would n''t seem quite mad?"
61344Ca n''t you see it for yourself?
61344Ca n''t you try to give him another of whom he wo n''t have to be ashamed?"
61344Can I get you anything?"
61344Could n''t you keep an eye on him, and tell me what she''s like?"
61344Could she have meant what he thought she must have meant?
61344Crewdson?"
61344Did God have any part in it?
61344Did n''t he own that market- garden place, out there on the edge of Connecticut?"
61344Did nature send him into the world as an inferior, or did the world turn him into an inferior after he had come into it?
61344Did she ever tell you why she selected that date?"
61344Did you get your book?
61344Did you know that?"
61344Do n''t I call you son?"
61344Do n''t I know?
61344Do n''t blame him, do you, when he''s heard everyone gassing about the kid all through his life?"
61344Do n''t you hear people talking?
61344Do n''t you know even how to_ talk_ right?"
61344Do n''t you read the papers?
61344Do n''t you remember?
61344Do you expect us to put up an arch?"
61344Do you hear me?"
61344Do you know that if we lead others astray God will call us to account for it?"
61344Do you remember?"
61344Do you suppose they''ll...?"
61344Do you suppose...?"
61344Do you understand what I mean?"
61344Do you want to know what time it is?
61344Does n''t he, Blanche?
61344Funny it''d be, would n''t it, if you turned out to be the Whitelaw baby?
61344Grover for?
61344Had he any friends?
61344Had he any relatives?
61344Have you had your supper?"
61344He can spare you for a few minutes, ca n''t he?
61344He could barely breathe the words,"Would you care if I were?"
61344He repeated the question he had put to Lily,"Would you care if I were your son?"
61344He would n''t mind the humiliation if he could do any good; but would he?
61344He''s got the same name as yours, has n''t he?
61344Her tantalizing question was ringing in his ears: If he was going to take a shine to any girl-- what of it?
61344Honey turned his head slightly to say:"Have I been asleep, Kid?"
61344Honeybun?"
61344Honeybun?"
61344Honeybun?"
61344How could he afford...?
61344How could he forsake...?
61344How could this injustice be endured?
61344How could you tell it when you saw it?
61344How did he, Tom Whitelaw, know that he was n''t his child?
61344How do you know that you wo n''t damn well have to be?"
61344How do you know you could n''t give him a peg up, and he''d be grateful to you all his life?"
61344How long had they lived in that place?
61344How long had they lived there?
61344How much did you give?"
61344How 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?"
61344How old are you?"
61344How old are you?"
61344How_ can_ I?
61344I ca n''t tell yer both sides to onst, now can I?"
61344I do n''t""Why do n''t you?"
61344I saw ma-- just as plain as--"He recovered himself with a light laugh--"Wouldn''t it bust yer braces to''ear me sayin''ma?
61344I sha n''t be hurting you, shall I?
61344I suppose you know all about yourself-- your people-- where you began-- that sort of thing?"
61344I suppose you live somewhere near us?"
61344I 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--?"
61344I think the crook in his face makes him look aristocratic, do n''t you?"
61344I told him you''d punish him, and you will, wo n''t you, ma?"
61344I want to get somewhere-- to a desert island perhaps-- where there wo n''t be any people--""None?"
61344I''ll only say that she likes you, and that--""Was it Hildred Ansley?"
61344I''m his wife, ai n''t I?"
61344I''ve prayed as I do n''t think many people have ever prayed; and now I''ve come to where--""Where what?"
61344I''ve said so to Dadd times without number, have n''t I, Dadd?"
61344I_ am_ a sport; only-- only--"he was almost bursting into tears--"only the damn fat wo n''t let me get it out, see?"
61344If Englishmen has to turn tail before Germans, well, what next?"
61344If anyone tries hard enough to persuade you....""Has anyone tried to persuade you-- about me?"
61344If 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?
61344If you ca n''t, or if you do n''t mean to, why make the threat?
61344If you want to talk to someone who wishes you well, go and--""Did she put you up to this?"
61344In 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?
61344Is he your father?"
61344Is n''t he a tease, Mr. Whitelaw?
61344Is n''t that nice?
61344Is that a bargain?"
61344Is that it?"
61344Just tell me that--""And what would you do?"
61344Know what it is?"
61344May I ask one question?"
61344Me?
61344Me?"
61344Not to be that son made Tom sorry; but without a mother, how could he be?
61344Now then, are you to put a spoke in the country''s wheel?
61344Now, do n''t you want to say your prayers?"
61344Oh, Tom, could n''t we make a little life for ourselves away from everyone, and from all this cheap vindictiveness?
61344Oh, Tom, was there ever anybody else with you?"
61344Oh, Tom, what can we do about it if we ever get home?"
61344Once he heard a lady say, as she passed behind his back,"Well, he does look like the Whitelaws, does n''t he?"
61344Only you''ll remember your promise, wo n''t you?
61344Pity, I call it, after-- how many years is it?"
61344Say, is it worth your while?
61344Say, now, would she tempt you?"
61344See how much he looks like Tad?"
61344See?
61344See?"
61344Seen you before, have n''t I?
61344She''s bottle- fed, ai n''t she?
61344Slipping into the hallway, she said over her shoulder as he followed her:"How old are you?"
61344So you''re here?
61344Still pretty cold for April, is n''t it?"
61344Suppose we just-- go on?
61344Taking no notice of this, the man began to question him,"Where were you born?"
61344That right, Pappa, ai n''t it?"
61344That''d be so, kiddy, would n''t it?"
61344That''s a good thought to go to sleep on, is n''t it?
61344That''s what you were going to say, is n''t it?
61344The crook?"
61344The 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?"
61344The nearest he could get to it in language was to say:"I''m a little boy, ai n''t I?"
61344The policeman answered, regretfully:"Do you think you must?"
61344The 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?"
61344Then you''ll feel more like eating, wo n''t you?"
61344They all hushed these things up, and he did as the rest; but what was the basic reason?
61344They were more expressive than her tone when they tossed themselves wildly apart, as she cried:"What else could it be for me-- but compulsion?"
61344This is the very bench on which Miss Nash and the other nurse were sitting--""When you were stolen?"
61344V"Mudda, can I have a book and learn to read?"
61344VI"It''s all right, mudda, is n''t it?"
61344Want to come?"
61344Was it God''s will that there should be a class system among mankind, with class animosities, class warfares?
61344Was it possible that she did n''t like to see him in a situation something like a servant''s?
61344Was n''t it everybody''s duty to try to right such a wrong?
61344Was n''t it lucky that you came along?
61344Was n''t that what He was doing now, and was n''t the angel taking Pilcher''s guise?
61344Watches me like a cat, do n''t you see she does?
61344We get away with it, do n''t we?
61344We''re keepin''it agin yer goin''to college, ai n''t we?
61344Well, it shows we were made for each other, does n''t it, because I never thought that anyone felt like that but me?"
61344Well, that''s what we went for, is n''t it?"
61344What about making the world safe for democracy?"
61344What are you going to be yourself?"
61344What are you standing on?
61344What are_ you_ doing up here in New Hampshire?"
61344What brought these differences about?
61344What class do you expect to be in?"
61344What did it matter if Hildred Ansley_ was_ opening the door out of pity?
61344What did they portend?
61344What did you come home for?"
61344What did you think?"
61344What did you-- what did you-- do with that powder?"
61344What did your father do?"
61344What difference does that make, when you''re a sport all right?
61344What do you gain by being the rotten spot in the beam that may bring the whole shack about our ears?
61344What do you remember about her?"
61344What do you say?"
61344What do you take me for?"
61344What do you want me to do?"
61344What does your father do?"
61344What is there to convince me?
61344What kind of hurdles?"
61344What kind of job?"
61344What made him so?
61344What made you go to Boston before coming here?"
61344What makes you so tall?"
61344What school do you go to?"
61344What then?"
61344What was Tad Whitelaw to him?
61344What was he to do?
61344What was it in him that cried out, and pleaded not to be forsaken?
61344What was it your name was?"
61344What was it?
61344What was it?
61344What was to be done about it?
61344What were the newspapers and the governments and the churches doing that they were n''t ringing with protests against this fundamental evil?
61344What would you think?"
61344What you thinking of?
61344What''ll they say next?
61344What''ll you will to your brither, my handsome young man?"
61344What''ll you will to your mither, my handsome young man?"
61344What''ll you will to your truelove, my handsome young man?"
61344What''s the matter with him?
61344What''s the weather like outside?
61344What''s there to find?
61344What''s up?"
61344What''s your address in New York?"
61344What''s your father do?"
61344What''s your name?"
61344What''s yours?"
61344When she turned round in the dark part of the shop, and called out,"Are you all right, darling?"
61344Where did they live?
61344Where do you think I keep my eyes?
61344Where do you think you''re going?"
61344Where had they lived before that?
61344Where have you been dining, my handsome young man?"
61344Where is he?"
61344Where was it?
61344Where we going?"
61344Where you been this ever so long?"
61344While 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?"
61344Whitelaw?"
61344Whitelaw?"
61344Who can prove a case of this kind-- after nearly twenty- three years?"
61344Who do you think you are?
61344Who sh''d buy yer a lunch if it was n''t me?"
61344Who''s the boy what his mother was put in ja- aa- ail?"
61344Who_ is_ that woman that he meets?"
61344Why did n''t you let me know?"
61344Why do n''t you call me that?
61344Why do you ask?"
61344Why do you pick on me?"
61344Why do you say that?"
61344Why go to all that trouble about opening your mind when here''s the job handed out to you?
61344Why not let him believe it?
61344Why not?
61344Why not?"
61344Why should a woman have uttered such a warning if she had not been afraid of a suspicion?
61344Why should n''t you?"
61344Why then did he hate the idea?
61344Why there?"
61344Why this specification?
61344Why was he frightened in the one case, and in the other comforted?
61344Why was one man inferior to another?
61344Why, where''s the picture?
61344Why?"
61344Why_ ca n''t_ boys treat each other like gentlemen?"
61344Without a turning of the head or a change in her languid intonation, she said, casually:"You''re our lost brother, are n''t you?"
61344Would Tom be in Louisburg Square for reasons of importance at four that afternoon?
61344Would that suit you?"
61344Would there be anyone to do that now?
61344Would they keep the peace?
61344Would you do that-- to your own mother-- after she was dead?"
61344Yale chap, is n''t he?"
61344Ye''ll have heard tell o''that?"
61344Yer ch''ice is between me and the State, and I''d be a lot better nor that, would n''t I?
61344Yer''ve heard that there''s always two sides to a story, have n''t yer?
61344You do n''t suppose I stole you, do you?"
61344You do n''t suppose my mother stole me, do you?
61344You know that, do n''t you?"
61344You know what a orthodock is, do n''t yer?"
61344You know what a socialist is, do n''t yer?"
61344You know what telling the truth is, do n''t you?"
61344You made a search?"
61344You see that apple?"
61344You see that, do n''t you?"
61344You understand, do n''t you?"
61344You wo n''t be late, will you?"
61344You wo n''t teach him anything harmful?"
61344You''ll be careful with them, wo n''t you?
61344You''re not asleep, Kiddy, are you?"
61344You''re the Whitelaw boy, are n''t you?"
61344and me tellin''yer about the Whitelaw baby?"
61344he whispered,"would n''t you like me to take the young gent for a bit of a walk like?
61344how 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?
12958All in good time, Pamela!--But is this the best appearance you choose to make, to receive such guests?
12958And are you in earnest, Pamela?
12958And do you think, Sir, whether it be so or not, that it is equitable it should be so?
12958And is her ladyship there, or in town?
12958And must I, Sir, speak my mind on such a point, before so many better judges?
12958And what is the result?
12958And who can better instruct us to guard_ our hearts_, than a lady who has so well defended_ her own_?
12958And will you, dearest lady, take under your own immediate protection, the poor unguilty infant? 12958 Are you angry, Widow?"
12958As how, Sir?
12958As how, my dear?
12958Ay, Pamela,said Mr. B.,"what can you say to this?
12958But do you yield it up cheerfully, my dear?
12958But how came Mr. Adams, Polly, to know of this letter?
12958But how can I help it?--Must I not connive at your proceedings, if I do not? 12958 But how does my Pamela?
12958But how, brother baronet,said Sir Charles to Sir Jacob,"came_ you_ to be reconciled to her?
12958But 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?
12958But what became of the naughty boys, and the naughty girl, mamma?
12958But what can I do?
12958But why ca n''t you bear with it a little longer, sister? 12958 But will not that be presumptuous, Sir?"
12958But, 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?"
12958But,said Lady Towers, very satirically,"whither, ladies, are we got?
12958Butt 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?
12958Dear Sir,said I, almost as quick as he was,"why should I be moved?
12958Do I want you, Confidence? 12958 Do n''t the Misses love you now, Miss Goodwin?"
12958Does what I said concern Mr. Martin more than any other gentleman,returned Lady Towers,"that he is disposed to take offence at it?"
12958For myself, what can I say? 12958 Has he given you money?"
12958How came Mr. B.,thought I,"to tell_ you_ that, Madam?
12958How can I enough,returned I, and kissed her hand,"acknowledge your ladyship''s polite goodness in this compliment?
12958How do you do, niece?
12958How 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?"
12958I 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?"
12958I know it, Polly; and are you not of opinion he loves you a little?
12958I need not dress otherwise than I am?
12958I see( might he not have said?
12958I''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?"
12958Is it not descending too much, my ladies, as to the company?
12958Is that it? 12958 Is this wit?"
12958It is so then?
12958Madam,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?"
12958Mr. Williams, how do you do?
12958Nay, now you talk of treating,said Sir Charles,"when, ladies, will you treat our sex with the politeness which you shew to one another?"
12958O my good lady,said he,"who can forbear following such an example as you set?
12958O, Madam, what can you mean? 12958 Right or wrong, Sir Jacob?"
12958She has; and what then?
12958Sir-- Sir,hesitated I,"as you please-- I can''t-- I ca n''t be displeased--""_ Displeased?_"interrupted he:"why that word?
12958Sir-- Sir,hesitated I,"as you please-- I can''t-- I ca n''t be displeased--""_ Displeased?_"interrupted he:"why that word?
12958So, Pamela!--How do you do now?
12958So, my dear love,says he,"how do you?"
12958That''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?"
12958The 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?
12958Then what occasion have I for it, if that be the case, Madam?
12958Then you do n''t approve of them, Pamela?
12958Then, dear Sir,said I,"must I not be a strange creature?
12958They are certainly in the right-- But were you not a dear perverse creature, to give me all this trouble about your saucy scruples?
12958Upon 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?"
12958Was the gentleman a man of wit, Madam? 12958 Well, Pamela,"said he, a little seriously,"what say the worthy pair?"
12958Well, but then, Sir, as to the expression to her uncle, that she had rather have been a certain gentleman''s second wife?
12958Well, but then, dear Sir, there is nothing at all amiss, at this rate, in the correspondence between my lady and you?
12958Well, but, mamma, we will all be good:-Won''t we, Master Davers?
12958Well, for my part,said Lady Davers,"thou art a strange girl: where, as my brother once said, gottest thou all this?"
12958Well, my dear,said Mr. B.,"but what would you advise in this case?
12958Well, my strange dear!--But sure your head is a little turned!--What is your question?
12958Well, so, this is your bar, is it? 12958 Well, then, my dearest,"said he,"we will forgive one another?
12958Well; 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?"
12958What ails the little fool?
12958What answer did my Lord S. make to it?
12958What foolishness is this on both sides!--But are you willing to be released from this bargain?
12958What have I done? 12958 What is your boast, dearest Sir?
12958What is your proposal, my dear? 12958 What mean you, Sir?--Who are you, Sir?--What mean you?"
12958What means all this parade, my dear? 12958 What means my dearest?"
12958What now,with some little impatience,"would the pretty fool be at?"
12958What say_ you_, Sir?
12958What should you be vexed at, my dear?
12958What then, does he pass his time_ with you_, Polly?
12958What''s the matter, my love?
12958What, all this while, is poor Profusiana doing? 12958 What, dost think I shall look through_ his_ foolish eyes?
12958What_ means_ the dear creature? 12958 When, Sir, am I to come upon my trial?
12958Whence this insolence? 12958 Where''s Pamela?"
12958Whether, Sir, the Nun-- I speak boldly; the cause requires it-- who followed you at the Masquerade every where, is not the Countess of--?
12958Who is to be judge of that?
12958Who would not be good?
12958Who''s that?
12958Why have I wept the distresses of the injured Hermione?
12958Why so?
12958Why this,continued the countess,"must be_ born_ dignity--_born_ discretion-- Education can not give it:--if it could, why should not_ we_ have it?"
12958Will not a penitent Nun make a good third with a mournful Widow, and a prim Quaker?
12958Will not my friends be welcome, Pamela?
12958Will you be pleased, Madam, to have a chair? 12958 Will you favour us with your company home, my old acquaintance?"
12958Will you give Master to my arms, one moment, Madam?
12958Will you give me leave, my dear,said he,"to break the seal?"
12958Will you suffer me, Sir, to attend you? 12958 Will your ladyship see him now?"
12958Would you have me dress better?
12958Yet I fancy, Madam, the wind is a little too high for you.--Won''t you catch cold?
12958You answer me not,continued I;"and may I not fairly presume you can not as I wish to be answered?
12958You are ruined if you do!--And I wish-- But tell me, Polly, are you not ruined as it is?
12958You 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?
12958Again and again, I say( for what can I say else or more-- since I ca n''t find words to speak all I think?
12958All her courtship was sometimes a hasty snatch of the hand, a black and blue gripe of the arm, and--"Whither now?"
12958All my resolution fails me; what shall I do?
12958And I rung and rung, and"Where''s Polly?"
12958And I was getting away as fast as I could: but he arose and took my hand,"Why is my charmer so soon frightened?"
12958And being told, came up to me:--"What ails the good woman below, my dear?"
12958And can we propose ourselves, for the government of our children, a better example than that of the Creator?
12958And did her ladyship so answer?"
12958And 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?
12958And having declared that I did so, was I not to shew the sincerity of my declaration?
12958And how could I forbear repeating these kind things to you, that you may see how well every thing is taken that you do?
12958And how did she bring it about?"
12958And if the dear gentleman had two or three thousand less, might he be less happy on that account?
12958And if you had intended to have gone without taking leave of me?"
12958And 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?"
12958And let us know your opinion, whether my brother himself does right, to comply with such an unreasonable distaste?"
12958And now, my dear parents, do you not rejoice with me in this charming, charming appearance?
12958And rising up--"Will you excuse me, Sir, that I can not attend at all to such a subject as this?
12958And should you care to try?
12958And so we shew how little we deserve what we have been so long coveting; and yet covet on: for what?
12958And then looking up at his face, and down at his feet, three or four times successively,"Are you my brother''s son?
12958And what did you design should come of it?"
12958And what do you think the free gentleman said upon it?
12958And what have_ you_ to do but to rejoice?
12958And what is the instruction that can be gathered from such pieces, for the conduct of common life?
12958And what is the_ honour_ you swear by?
12958And what punishment does not such a seducer deserve?"
12958And what was the consequence?
12958And when once I asked myself, to what this conversation might tend at last?
12958And where''s your lord?
12958And who can then be so blest as your Pamela?
12958And why should it not be so?
12958And why this wry face?
12958And will it be right then to say, you are uneasy under such( at least as to your wills) returned and discharged obligations?
12958And will ladies so disgrace their characters, and their sex, as to pursue this pernicious diversion in public?"
12958And will not the man of_ mind_ bestow his principal care in improving that mind?
12958And wo n''t that be an ugly foible overcome?
12958Are you not?"
12958At last, up he got, and swore a sad oath:"And am I thus tricked and bamboozled,"that was his word;"am I?
12958B. come up again?
12958B. said,"Why are you not full- dressed, my dear?"
12958B.--"O why,"as Deborah makes the mother of Sisera say,"is his chariot so long in coming?
12958B.?"
12958B.?"
12958B.?"
12958B.?"
12958B.?"
12958B.?"
12958B.?"
12958Believing 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?"
12958But 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?
12958But I have no notion of_ mere_ formalities of this kind"--(How unpolite this, my dear, in your friend?)
12958But after a pause, she said,"Well, then, brother, will you let Pamela decide upon this point?"
12958But 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?"
12958But ca n''t we talk of any other subject?
12958But did she not ask you who you were?"
12958But do n''t you observe what a dear good lady I had?
12958But do you think I will call all these things my own?--Do you think I would live rent- free?
12958But does Mr. B. think it must be so in_ every_ matrimony?
12958But hark- ye- me, my sweet girl, what have I done, that you wo n''t write yourself_ sister_ to me?
12958But have you no other objection, if one could find a genteely- descended young Master?
12958But if she has been accustomed to grant him little favours, can she easily recal them?
12958But is such a Narcissus!--But this between ourselves, for his uncle is wrapt up in the fellow-- And why?
12958But pray, Sir, may I ask, what have you determined to do?"
12958But pray, Sir, what is the earl''s living valued at?"
12958But tell me what you would say?
12958But tell me, truly, Pamela, are you not a little sullen?
12958But tell me, what you think of''em?"
12958But this I see plainly, that he will have his own way; and if I can not get over my scruples, what shall I do?
12958But what a preamble is here?
12958But 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?
12958But what can I do?
12958But what foolishness is this!--What consideration has he made you?"
12958But what shall we say?
12958But what will become of the naughty boys?
12958But what, pray, Mr. Williams, do you propose to allow to your curate?
12958But where is such a gentleman as Mr. B. to be met with?
12958But who knows, when the time comes, whether it may not be proper to dispense with this duty, as you deem it, on other accounts?
12958But who was your_ first_ informant?--Was that by letter or personally?
12958But will you pardon me, if I ask, whither you go so soon?
12958But wo n''t you oblige me with the sequel of your letter to your father?
12958But 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.
12958But, 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?"
12958But, indeed, how should she?
12958But, my dear friend, are you not in danger of falling into a too thoughtful and gloomy way?
12958But, would you believe it, Sir Simon?
12958But-- but--"staring at me,"Are you married, Madam?"
12958Can I have a will that is not his?
12958Can not you defend me from this charge?
12958Can people merit by doing their duty?
12958Can the affections be so highly raised as mine are on these occasions, and the thoughts creep grovelling like one''s ordinary self?
12958Can the gluttonous father expect a self- denying son?
12958Can the profuse father, who is squandering away the fortunes of his children, expect to be regarded in a lesson of frugality?
12958Colbrand?"
12958Could you ever have thought, my dear, that husbands have a dispensing power over their wives, which kings are not allowed over the laws?
12958Did he not look displeased?
12958Did she go my way?
12958Did you intend to carry this matter, at first, as far as ever you could?"
12958Did you not disdain me at that moment?"
12958Did you think that could be?
12958Do n''t you know how much I interest myself in every thing that makes for my brother''s happiness and your''s?
12958Do n''t you remember it, dear Sir?
12958Do n''t you see his delight, when speaking of his former pranks, as if sorry he could not play them over again?
12958Do n''t you think me, my dear, insufferably vain?
12958Do these instances come up to your questions, my dear?
12958Do they come up to your first question?
12958Do you ever hear Miss Goodwin say a naughty word?
12958Do you think I can bear to hear my friend so freely treated?"
12958Do you think I did not look very silly?
12958Do you think they do?--And if you hope to emulate my good fortune, do you think_ this_ is the way?"
12958Do, dear Miss, be so free as to forbid me to send you any more long journals, but common letters only, of how you do?
12958Does any thing provoke you_ now_"( with a sly leer and affected drawl)"that did not_ formerly?_""Provoke me!--What should provoke me?
12958Does any thing provoke you_ now_"( with a sly leer and affected drawl)"that did not_ formerly?_""Provoke me!--What should provoke me?
12958Does he pretend that he will marry you?"
12958Does not God himself, by rewards and punishments, make it our interest, as well as our duty, to obey him?
12958Does not this shew, that her virtue has made her more conspicuous than my fortune has made me?
12958Else how would it have been forgiveness?
12958For he will have me then reveal my intelligencer: and what may be the case between them?
12958For how, when you, and my good ladies, are continually giving me such charming examples, can I do a wrong thing?"
12958For 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?
12958For must they not have implements to work with?
12958For since such is your will, and seem to be your engagements, what avails it to me to oppose them?
12958For what may not be feared from so early inculcating the use of dice and gaming, upon the minds of children?
12958For when the mind is elevated, ought not the sense we have of our happiness to make our expressions soar equally?
12958For, 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?
12958From two such extremes, how was it possible I could presently hit the medium?
12958Go to, honest heart, I love thee dearly; but can Mr. B. do too much for his lady, think''st thou?
12958H.?"
12958Has not the Countess taken a house or lodgings at Tunbridge?"
12958Hast thou nothing at all to say for thyself?"
12958Have you any notion, that your lady will have so much power over us?"
12958Have you forgot that?"
12958Have you got her mother with you?
12958He 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?
12958He looked at me with sternness,"Do you doubt my honour, Madam?"
12958He 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?"
12958He 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?"
12958He was pleased to ask me, when they were gone, how I liked his two lawyers?
12958Hold him fast, and play over all thy monkey tricks with him, with all my heart; who knows but it may engage him more?
12958How happy shall we be!--But how long will you be permitted to stay, though?
12958How 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''?
12958How shall I acknowledge your inexpressible goodness to me?
12958How should_ she_ be able to reflect, who knows not what reflection is, except of the spiteful sort?
12958How will a parent, whose hands are seldom without cards, or dice in them, be observed in lessons against the pernicious vice of gaming?
12958How, in a word, shall_ they_ come by their knowledge?
12958I asked, if I might not be excused writing, only making my observations, here and there, to himself, as I found occasion?
12958I began as follows:"Will you be pleased, Sir, to favour me with the continuation of our last subject?"
12958I believe you did feel the weight of my hand: but what was that?
12958I 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?"
12958I doubt not, you are soon to return to Tunbridge?"
12958I fear you have sprained your foot.--Shall I help you to a chair?"
12958I had them in my pocket, and read them to my lady; who asked me, if her brother had seen them?
12958I hope you have a better opinion of me than--""Than what, Pamela?--What would you say?
12958I hope, niece, he locks up his baby, while you''re here?
12958I looked, it seems, a little grave; and Mr. B. said,"What have you to offer, Pamela?--What have I said amiss?"
12958I 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?
12958I never saw one before though, in Mr. H.--What''s the matter, Sir?"
12958I repeat my demand: shall it be as Mrs. B. lays it out, or not?"
12958I said softly,"Dear Miss Darnford"( for Mr. B. and the Nun were out of sight in a moment),"what is become of that Nun?"
12958I shall never forget your looks, nor your words neither!--they were severe speeches, were they not, Sir?"
12958I 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?
12958I''ll-- But who comes here?"
12958If I were as good as I_ ought_ to be, and as some_ think_ me, must they wish to make me bad for that reason?"
12958If my Pamela is safe, the boy is welcome, welcome, indeed!--But when may I go up to thank my jewel?"
12958If the fountain- head be polluted, how shall the under- currents run clear?
12958If this goodness makes him know no mean in giving, shall I be so greedy as to know none in receiving?
12958If this, Sir, be the case, does not this excellent author recommend a scheme that is rendered in a manner impracticable from this difficulty?
12958If you might not be uneasy at our acquaintance, and at his frequent absence from you, and the like?
12958Is it for this?
12958Is it not a proof of weakness?
12958Is it not a random shot?
12958Is it''cause thou''rt affected_ most_ with thy own case?
12958Is it?"
12958Is not such a poor creature to be pitied?
12958Is_ she_ like to do well?"
12958Is_ she_ safe?
12958It has been an expence to you rather, which you will not presently get up: do you propose an early marriage, Sir?
12958Jervis asked me on Saturday evening, if I would be concerned to see a larger congregation in the lesser hall next morning than usual?
12958Jervis?"
12958Jervis?"
12958Jervis?''
12958LETTER LXIX Why do n''t I subscribe Sister?
12958LETTER LXVIII Why does not my sweet girl subscribe_ Sister_, as usual?
12958LETTER V MY DEAREST DAUGHTER, How shall I do to answer, as they deserve, your two last letters?
12958LETTER X_ From the same._ And so, Pamela, you are solicitous to know, if the gentlemen have seen every part of your papers?
12958Lady Davers keeps me in countenance in this my notion; and who doubts her politeness?
12958Longman?"
12958Lord Davers-- what merit_ would_ you assume?
12958Madam, I could speak any one distinct sentence?
12958Madam--_ought_ I-- if this be the case?
12958Madam.--But where''s my nephew, Lady Davers?
12958May I not know your subject?"
12958May 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?
12958Miss Darnford was addressed by the name of the Sprightly Widow: another asked, how long she intended to wear those weeds?
12958Mr. B. asks me how I relish Mr. Locke''s_ Treatise on Education_?
12958Mr. B. coming up just as I had concluded my letter, asked me what was my subject?
12958Mr. B. looked as if he still expected I should say something.--"Won''t you, Sir, dispense with me?"
12958Mr. 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?
12958Mr. B. said,"Wo n''t it be better to sit over- against her, uncle?"
12958Mr. H. putting his handkerchief to his eyes, his aunt said,"What''s the matter, Jackey?"
12958Mrs. B. reflects upon me for making her blush formerly, and saying things before my daughters, that, truly, I ought to be ashamed of?
12958Must 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?
12958My Lady Davers followed us:"Where is my angelic sister?"
12958My 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?"
12958My brother was not disturbed at them, was he?"
12958No, to what purpose should I speak?
12958O Mores!_ What will this world come to?"
12958O my dear parents, how can you, as in your_ postscript_, say,"May we not be_ favoured_ now- and- then with a letter?"
12958O when shall I see you?
12958O, my dear, these gentlemen are strange creatures!--What can they think of themselves?
12958Of such a prerogative in a husband?
12958On the contrary, is it not oftener to be found in a happy competency or mediocrity?
12958Or did you intend to induce him to go to town with us?"
12958Or is it, that thy hour is not yet come?"
12958Or is not what I have said, a full answer, were I to say no more, to_ all_ your enquiries?
12958Or were it not better to suspend your intentions of that sort for a year or two more?"
12958Or what words shall be found to embody air?
12958Or 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.
12958Or,''Why should Sally have this or that, any more than I?''
12958Pray, Madam"( to me),"have you ever been at all conversant in such writers?"
12958Pray-- have you shewn Jewkes''s letter to your good friend?--Lady Betty wants to know( if you_ have_) what he could say to it?
12958Put on an angrier brow, or how shall I retain my purpose?
12958See you not,"and I pressed his hand with my lips,"they are all gone already?"
12958Shall I call her in?''
12958Shall I engage her to visit you?
12958Shall I present you with a curiosity?
12958Shall such a girl as this awe me by her rigid virtue?
12958She asked me, pretty dear, just now, If I think there is such a happy girl in the world as she is?
12958She returned, with an affected laugh,"Smartly said!--But art thou come hither, friend, to make thy light shine before men or women?"
12958She says you can play on the harpsichord, and sing too; will you let a body have a tune or so?
12958Sir, dispense with me on this occasion?
12958Sir, what then was there on_ your_ side, in that matter, that made you give me so patient and so kind a hearing?"
12958Sir, you had rather it were a girl than a boy?"
12958Sir; it is you that part with me: and tell me, Sir, tell me but what you had intended should become of me?"
12958Sir?
12958Sir?
12958Sir?"
12958Sir?"
12958Suppose my dear Mr. B. had five thousand pounds a year added to his present large income, would that increase his happiness?
12958Tell me, how it is possible for me, in my situation, to avoid it?"
12958That is to say, how a young lady ought to guard against and overcome the first favourable impressions?"
12958That it would add to his cares, is no question; but could it give him one single comfort which he has not already?
12958The business is, if Miss Darnford could love him well enough for a husband?
12958The gentlemen laughed:"Is it shooting flying, Sir Jacob,"returned Sir Charles,"to praise that lady?"
12958Then she must make a brighter appearance by far, and a more pleasing one too: for why?
12958Then why this complaining?
12958They are all living, I hope?"
12958They have taken their house, I suppose: but what need they, when they''ll have one in Bedfordshire, and one in Lincolnshire?
12958This frighted them both: Mr. H. swore, and said,"Who can that be?--Your lady''s gone with them, is n''t she?"
12958This 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?"
12958Thou married to a lord, and thy brother to a-- Can''st tell me what, Barbara?
12958Thus( could your ladyship have thought it?)
12958To whom were you directing your favours now?
12958Towers,"may one ask, what particular subject was at this time your employment?"
12958Towers,"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?
12958Upon which my lady said, a little tartly,"Yes, and for a very good reason, I doubt not; for who cares to condemn himself?"
12958Was the lady a woman of taste?"
12958We being alone, after supper, I took the liberty to ask him, who was of his party to Oxford?
12958Well, but what shall I say more?
12958What a plague has this little witch done to you all?
12958What ails you, Pamela?"
12958What are they, my lord?"
12958What can one do?--Did you ever hear of such a notion, before?
12958What can one say to all things?
12958What can two such ladies write, that I may not see?"
12958What do you see of freedom in me?"
12958What have I said now?"
12958What made me such a fool, I wonder?
12958What means that heaving sob?
12958What new thing shall I have?"
12958What occasion is there for it?
12958What say you to these things, my dear?
12958What think you, Mr. B.?
12958What vexes me is, that when the noble uncle of this vile lady--(why do n''t you call her so as well as I?)
12958What would I not do, in short, to procure to myself the inexpressible pleasure that I should have in your company and conversation?
12958What would_ you_ advise, my dear?"
12958What, I say, had I to do, to take upon me lady- airs, and to resent?
12958What, I warrant, you would not be too much beholden to his honour, would you?"
12958What, and make you cry''_ Fie!_''-or do you intend to trust your honour to his mercy, rather than to your own discretion?"
12958What, indeed, does not such a deceiver deserve?"
12958What, may I ask, came next?
12958What_ can_ I say for Polly Barlow?
12958What_ means my_ Pamela?
12958When 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?
12958Where 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?"
12958Which side are you of?"
12958Who knows but we may find out some cousin or friend of Mr. Murray''s between us, that we may persuade to address you?
12958Who''s housekeeper now?
12958Who, that knows these things of him, would wish him to be hers, with all his advantages of person, mind, and fortune?"
12958Why should I thus sadden all your gaudy prospects?
12958Why starts this precious pearl?"
12958Why tarry the wheels of his chariot?"
12958Why the plague,"whispered he,"could you not have pitched your tent here?
12958Why the word_ foolish_, aunt?
12958Why then all this emotion?"
12958Why, she is not to sit at table, is she?
12958Will ladies game, Madam?
12958Will my dear papa grant it, do you think, if you were to lay the highest obligation upon your dutiful daughter, and petition for me?
12958Will that please you, Sir?"
12958Will this instance, my dear, come up to your demand for one, where he recedes from his own will, in complaisance to mine?
12958Will you excuse me, my dear, all this seeming vanity, for the sake of repeating exactly what passed?
12958Will you excuse me, my dear?
12958With how ill a grace must a man who will often be disguised in liquor, preach sobriety?
12958Wo n''t it look like intolerable vanity in me, to find fault with such a genius as Mr. Locke?
12958Wo n''t there be a fine twinkling and sparkling, think you, when the greater and lesser bear- stars are joined together?
12958Would Miss Goodwin, think you, have done so or so?"
12958Would he not have thought the humble cottager as capable of insolence, and vengeance too, in her turn, as the better born?
12958Would it not be inevitable ruin to her to leave me?
12958Would not his honour think if I hid one thing from him, I might hide another?
12958Would you care to subscribe to it?
12958Writing, I dare say?
12958Yet what could he have done?
12958Yet, how much better is it to suffer one''s self, than to be the cause of another''s sufferings?
12958You are to suppose the living in your own hands again; will you leave the whole matter to my_ sister_ here?"
12958You desire to know, my honoured papa, how Mr. B. passes his time, and whether it be in his lady''s chamber?
12958You do n''t keep her company, do you?"
12958You 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?"
12958You''re the Countess of C.''s youngest daughter Jenny-- That''s your cue."--"Ah?
12958_ Am_ I mistaken?"
12958_ Common decency_, did you say?
12958a passionate man, patience?
12958added he:"Have you not a son worthy of such an alliance?"
12958an irreligious man, piety?
12958and that she wanted but the power, to shew the like unrelenting temper, by which she had so grievously suffered?
12958and where the pleasure each seemed to take in the other''s, might possibly end?
12958and whether you expected an answer from me to your last?
12958and why that hesitation in your answer?
12958as you do, what ails Mrs. Jervis?
12958but tell me, who will part with their child, think you?
12958coming 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?"
12958did I betray any impatience of speech or action, or any discomposure?
12958fear you not an instant punishment for this appeal?
12958goes?"
12958hadst thou been born a fool, or a raw greenhead, or a doating greyhead--"--"What then, Sir Jacob?"
12958how can you speak such a word?
12958let it take its course!--How barbarously, methinks, I speak!--He ought to_ feel_ the lash, first, because he_ deserves_ it, poor little soul?
12958might I not well be grave, knowing what I knew?)
12958my dear lady, what could I do?
12958my dear,"said I;"what is beauty, if she be not a good girl?
12958my dear,"said he,"no papa and mamma!--Did they not send you a pretty black boy to wait upon you, a while ago?
12958or do they not?
12958rob me of heaven too?
12958said I;"and is it thus, by_ repeating_ your fault, that you_ atone_ for it?
12958said he, and stamped--"Who can choose but bless you?
12958said he:"I hope you and she have had no words?"
12958said she,''whither can she go, to be so happy as with me?
12958said she:"how could you help it?
12958said the silly girl--"yet that was like her voice!--Me''m, are you in your closet, Me''m?"
12958that I should have been what I am?"
12958we condemn every man who dresses well, and is not a sloven, as a fop or a coxcomb?"
12958what wilt thou do?
12958whistled he, with a wild stare:"and how is it with you, youngster?"
12958who is she?"
35784A bottle of your best brandy-- the French cognac?
35784Always?
35784Am I myself? 35784 Among the invited, Le Capitaine Ryecroft, I presume?"
35784Amongst them did ye include forgin''?
35784An otter, then?
35784And I hope worthy of Olympe Renault?
35784And all ready for starting?
35784And comes down the river by boat, does n''t he?
35784And has there been no search yet?
35784And 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?"
35784And suppose we do that to- day?
35784And supposing her to be alive,he asks,"where do you think she is now?
35784And surer with a heavier one, as yourself, for instance?
35784And the waterman too?
35784And what after?
35784And what did you hear?
35784And where am I to bring it?
35784And where has she slept?
35784And who do you suspect besides?
35784And 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_?"
35784And ye found them in the cubbert too?
35784And you do think he has gone for good?
35784And you really think she has n''t slept in her room?
35784And you''d like to be a rich one?
35784And you''re quite sure she has not slept in her room?
35784And, supposing him identified, what follows?
35784Are they there still?
35784Are you quite sure, sir? 35784 Are you sure of it?
35784As who?
35784At what?
35784Attending to culinary matters, I presume? 35784 Be there anythin''amiss?"
35784Be what?
35784Business-- wi''me?
35784But ai n''t he stayin''in the neighbourhood longer than he first spoke of doin''?
35784But could you as you are now, with clothes on, boots, and everything?
35784But have you ever known of a boat being moored in there?
35784But how can that concern any one save myself?
35784But how gone? 35784 But how is it to be avoided?"
35784But is there still?
35784But 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?
35784But then she was drowned also? 35784 But there be new people there now, ye sayed?"
35784But what do you advise my doing,_ Père_? 35784 But what do you make of all that?"
35784But what made ye go there, Jack?
35784But what sort of man is he? 35784 But what''s to be the upshot?
35784But why are you looking so often below? 35784 But why ca n''t it be done?"
35784But 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?"
35784But why should we?
35784But why, Jack? 35784 But why, madame?"
35784But why?
35784But yaw do n''t think he''s an adventuwer?
35784But you are not recommending it now-- in this little convent matter?
35784But you saw her in her coffin? 35784 But, shawly, that is n''t how the gentleman yondaw made acquaintance with the fair Gwendoline?"
35784But,continues the Major, greatly moved,"you''ll forgive me, old fellow, for being so inquisitive?
35784Can it be he?
35784Can you wonder at that?
35784Certainly?
35784Do you mean to say you''re not aware of what''s happened?
35784Do you suppose, Miss Lees, I have n''t penetrated your secret long ago? 35784 Do you think they''ll be out long?"
35784Does what mean?
35784Dressing, may be? 35784 Drowned?
35784Fear of what?
35784Frightened o''what? 35784 From the cold he caught that night, I suppose?"
35784Had n''t we better keep on, an''make sure?
35784Hansom, sir?
35784Has any letter reached Llangorren Court?
35784Have you a through ticket?
35784Have you any idea whose?
35784He visits often at the Court of late?
35784He''s a gentleman, is he?
35784He''s dying, then?
35784He''s gone then?
35784He''s out too, then?
35784Head and shoulders? 35784 Her name?"
35784How can I help thinkin''it? 35784 How can he, Jack?"
35784How can it give you a belief in the girl being still alive? 35784 How far did the man say?
35784How is it, Jack, that you, living but a short league above, do n''t know all about these people?
35784How long is it since she went off?
35784How long since they went off-- may I know, Miss Linton?
35784How should I know, my son? 35784 How soon do you think?
35784How then?
35784How was he introduced?
35784How would you like to live in that over yonder?
35784How would you like, somebody else being with you in it--_if made worth your while_?
35784How''d I like it, your Reverence? 35784 How''m I to help it, Miss Gwen?
35784How,_ Pére_?
35784How-- where?
35784I mean for Miss Wynn, since the night of that ball?
35784I see-- what of it?
35784I wonder where the place is? 35784 In a worldly sense you mean?
35784In that case, why did n''t you bring him in?
35784In what direction did you hear them?
35784In what respect? 35784 In what way could I?"
35784In what way? 35784 In what way?
35784In what way?
35784Is it likely they will, Miss Linton?
35784Is it strange, Ellen?
35784Is it yourself? 35784 Is n''t it a beautiful creature?"
35784Is that any reason we should n''t now?
35784Is that so?
35784Is there any landing- place there for a boat?
35784Is what true?
35784It is a love secret, then? 35784 It is your place to look after the letters, I believe?"
35784It may as well be written now-- may it not?
35784It''s very kind of you, Mahon; but that must depend on----"On what?
35784Let him-- as many as he likes; you do n''t suppose I''ll believe them?
35784Let me have a squint at it?
35784Llangorren Court?
35784May I have a hint o''what it is?
35784May I know who that one is, Father Rogier?
35784Meanin''o''what, sir?
35784Mr. George Shenstone?
35784Murdock is married, then?
35784My wife?
35784Nay, 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?"
35784Not here?
35784Oh, mother, what did you dream about them?
35784Old acquaintance; friend, I presume? 35784 Only whether-- whether she-- Miss Gwen, I mean-- said anything about riding to- day?"
35784Ormeston Hall? 35784 Perhaps you''d prefer it being boots?
35784Quite turn it upside down-- as your old truckle, eh?
35784Richard--_le braconnier_--you''re thinking of?
35784Rogue''s Ferry? 35784 Shall I read it to you?"
35784Shall I turn the boat back?
35784So you think he have a notion o''her, Jack?
35784Somethin''to do wi''the coracle, have it?
35784Still, it_ is_ strange, her not calling me, nor requiring my attendance?
35784Sure, then, the Captain han''t been to visit them?
35784Surely he will not be so stupid-- so insane? 35784 That all he said?"
35784That you, Mary?
35784That''s to be on Thursday, ye sayed?
35784The canwyll corph?
35784The heequall?
35784The moon?
35784Then there''s no trouble between you?
35784Then what''s been a scarin''ye, mother?
35784There ha''something happened?
35784They did so?
35784They mean mischief,mutters Wingate;"what''d we best do, Captain?
35784To your great annoyance, no doubt, if it did not make you dreadfully jealous?
35784Too late for what? 35784 True, how?
35784True; and, availing myself of that, I might have been gone long since, as you supposed, but for----"For what?
35784True; but does that bear upon our affair?
35784True; but, then, there may come a fare the morrow, an''what if there do? 35784 Two hours ago they got off, you say?"
35784WHERE''S GWEN?
35784WHERE''S GWEN?
35784Well, and what after?
35784Well, did it strike you as a cry that would come from one falling over the cliff-- by accident, or otherwise?
35784Well, what of it?
35784Well; an''what if''t be?
35784Well; what of him?
35784Well?
35784What are they? 35784 What are they?
35784What article?
35784What be there so odd in that?
35784What can Jack be coming after? 35784 What can all that mean?
35784What can it mean?
35784What could be more ridiculous?
35784What do you mean, Wingate? 35784 What do you think it was?"
35784What fellow?
35784What had he to say about me?
35784What have you done with those addressed to Miss Wynn?
35784What have you heard, mother?
35784What have you?
35784What hour?
35784What is it, Wingate?
35784What is it?
35784What is it?
35784What is it?
35784What is it?
35784What is it?
35784What is it?
35784What is there''specially repulsive about him?
35784What makes you suppose she is there?
35784What makes you think I''m lookin''that way?
35784What may it be, your Reverence?
35784What may that be, Father Rogier?
35784What mean you, Gregoire?
35784What more?
35784What more?
35784What news?
35784What other respects?
35784What other thing?
35784What reasons?
35784What say you, gentlemen?
35784What sort of a man?
35784What sort of anodyne?
35784What then?
35784What thing, pway?
35784What thing?
35784What train?
35784What was it? 35784 What''s strangest?"
35784What''s that for?
35784What''s the meaning of all this, Joe?
35784What, Gregoire?
35784What, may I ask?
35784What, then?
35784What?
35784What?
35784What?
35784What?
35784What?
35784What?
35784Whatever be the matter wi''ye, Jack?
35784Whatever ha''kep''ye, Jack? 35784 When is this horror to have an end?
35784When might you want it, your Reverence?
35784Where are they?
35784Where are you going, Gwen?
35784Where be the poor man abidin''now?
35784Where can Gregoire have gone?
35784Where did you find them?
35784Where do they weesh the boat to be took? 35784 Where ha''ye heerd all this, Jack?"
35784Where may that be?
35784Where? 35784 Where?"
35784Where?
35784Where?
35784Where?
35784Which of us do you propose staying here? 35784 Which?"
35784Who can be asking for me?
35784Who could help liking it?
35784Who is that young lady?
35784Who is this other?
35784Who the deuce is he?
35784Who then?
35784Who''s gone away? 35784 Who''s his endawser?
35784Who? 35784 Who?"
35784Who?
35784Who?
35784Whose is it, Jack?
35784Why all this emotion about such a_ misérable_? 35784 Why d''yaw say that, Jawge?"
35784Why do you say so, Captain Ryecroft?
35784Why do you think that? 35784 Why must you?
35784Why odd?
35784Why should I? 35784 Why should it?"
35784Why so?
35784Why too well?
35784Why wo n''t it do in the mornin''?
35784Why, George; where else could they go rowing? 35784 Why, Ryecroft, you''re surely joking?"
35784Wi''who?
35784Will you take it neat, or mixed wi''a drop o''water?
35784Wish to do what?
35784With safety?
35784Would it greatly surprise you if to- night your husband did n''t come home to you?
35784Wynn, eh? 35784 Ye ha''been into the chapel buryin''groun'', then?"
35784Ye had a big time last night at Llangorren?
35784Ye say ye know him better than ye did? 35784 Ye suspect somebody, then?"
35784Ye''re to see him the morrow, then?
35784Yes; well?
35784You advise my going over to Llangorren?
35784You can write, Jack, ca n''t you?
35784You do n''t think it was Dick and his coracle, then?
35784You have n''t yet told me his name?
35784You mean the tongue of_ le braconnier_?
35784You mean----?
35784You said nothing of this at the inquest?
35784You say you''ve brought them along?
35784You see something?
35784You think only_ days_?
35784You think there were others?
35784You''re not going to Paris now-- not this night?
35784You''re quite sure of that,_ ma fille_?
35784You''re quite sure there was a boat, Wingate?
35784You''re sure you''ll be able?
35784You''ve been to the Ferry, then?
35784You''ve done something to keep him quiet?
35784Your 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?"
35784A gentle tapping at the door tells him the triangle is touched; and, responding to the signal, he calls out,--"That you, Jack Wingate?
35784A nate thing, and a close shave, was n''t it?
35784Above all, who are the men in it?
35784Above all, why her distraught look, with the sigh accompanying it, as the baronet''s son went galloping out of the gate?
35784After a sip, he resumes speech with the remark,--"If I mistake not, you are a poor man, Monsieur Dempsey?"
35784After a time it occurs to him he has been spoken to, and asks,--"What did you observe, Wingate?"
35784After a time, he again observes,--"You''ve said you do n''t know the ladies we''ve helped out of their little trouble?"
35784After all, what do it matter-- only a bit o''weed?"
35784All I said was, that somebody thinks so; and that is n''t I. Shall I tell you who it is?"
35784All that can be said is, she disappeared on the night of the ball, without telling any one; no trace left behind-- except----""Except what?"
35784Am I not right?
35784Am I, indeed, to pass the remainder of my days within this dismal cell?
35784An''if I an''t astray, he be the one your Reverence thinks would not be any the worse o''a wettin''?"
35784An''t she a bewty?
35784An''t she?"
35784An''what d''ye want wi''me?"
35784And a pretty sight it is, is n''t it?
35784And 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?
35784And d''ye think I did n''t see Mr. Whitecap going down, afore ye thought o''a row yerself?
35784And did not thy limpid waters bathe the feet of Fair Rosamond, in childhood''s days, when she herself was pure?
35784And having gone so, the questions are, why, and whither?
35784And how is she to give it, with least pain to him?
35784And if other, what its business?
35784And if suicide, why?
35784And is it not for him they are there; risking liberty-- it may be life?
35784And the cry heard so soon after?
35784And the quarrel-- how did it end?
35784And this very day, what meant Mr. Shenstone by that sudden and abrupt departure?
35784And was in the water some time?"
35784And what but the body of Gwendoline Wynn?
35784And what can be keeping_ her_?
35784And who?"
35784And why am I to rejoice?"
35784And why should n''t she, Père Rogier?
35784And you think she will be able to obtain the information, without in any way compromising herself?"
35784Anyhow, he''ll want her to go down to them grand doin''s at Llangorren Court?"
35784Are you sure of that, Father Rogier?"
35784As he is not questioned about these, why should he?
35784As he stands with eyes glaring upon them, he is again accosted by his inquisitive acquaintance, who asks:"What''s the matter, Jawge?
35784Be''t anybody ha''stoled the things out o''the boat?
35784Bean''t there somethin''amiss?"
35784Beast, bird, or fish?"
35784Being so observant, I wonder if this everybody has also observed how I receive them?"
35784Besides, is he not back there-- come of his own accord-- to confront his accusers, if any there still be?
35784Brought up under the_ regimé_ of Louis and trained in the school of Eugenie, why need she fear either social slight or exclusion?
35784But Mahon, drawing them for himself, says searchingly--"Then you have a suspicion there''s been what''s commonly called foul play?"
35784But can it be the priest who is in it?
35784But has she been borne off by force, or went she willingly?
35784But have you any thoughts as to how we should proceed?"
35784But how came I to it?
35784But how could she think that?
35784But how does it corrupt them?"
35784But how have I come into it?
35784But how is it to be hindered?"
35784But how, your Reverence?
35784But if only one, and that her, what of himself?
35784But speaking seriously, Ryecroft, as you say you''re on business, may I know its nature?"
35784But the Cognac?
35784But the latter-- is it still alive and flourishing?
35784But the time?
35784But what am I thinkin''o''?
35784But what do you conclude from its not having been?"
35784But what is beauty to her with all these adjuncts?
35784But what its width or depth, compared with that other something between?
35784But what led ye to think he ha''been also in the housebreakin''line?"
35784But what matters it?
35784But what''s brought you to Boulogne?"
35784But what''s the use of talking of a thing not likely to happen?"
35784But what''s your argument?"
35784But where are they?
35784But where is the other, the false one?
35784But whither?"
35784But who in the deuce is the gentleman?
35784But whom do you suspect?"
35784But why be you so partic''lar about my goin''out-- this night more''n any other?"
35784But why do ye ask?
35784But why on each and every occasion has he found a gentleman there-- the same every time-- George Shenstone by name?
35784But you surely do n''t suppose I could think of him as a sweetheart?
35784But, maybe, I make too free, asking your business in Boulogne?"
35784By the way, I hear you''re about to have grand doings at the Court-- a ball, and what not?"
35784By the way, have I got my purse with me?"
35784By the way, what have you got in that black jack?"
35784Can I?"
35784Can she be English?
35784Can the chasm which angry words have created be bridged over?
35784Can you?"
35784Controlling it, the other asks, with diminished interest, still earnestly,--"What leads you to think that way, Wingate?
35784D''d ye hear that, Captain?"
35784Did n''t I, your Reverence?
35784Did n''t it strike you so, Nelly?"
35784Do n''t you think so?"
35784Do you chance to know him?"
35784Do you know where you can borrow such, or hire it?"
35784Do you really mean that, Captain Ryecroft?"
35784Does any one know who was his boatman?"
35784Does he live at Llangorren?
35784Does n''t it?"
35784Dreaming?
35784Dropped, of course; but under what circumstances?
35784Dropping egg and cup, in stark astonishment, she demands:"What do you mean, Gibbons?"
35784Dublin is his native place; but what would or could he now do there?
35784Even if it were, you seem to forget that her mother, father-- all of them-- must have been cognizant of these facts-- if facts?"
35784Fell from a foot plank, you told me?
35784Flirting while engaged-- what might she do when married?
35784For himself?
35784For its solution he appeals to Ryecroft, asking,--"How about the moon?"
35784For what are either now to him?
35784George Shenstone?
35784Giving 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?"
35784Ha''the thing been cut off, or pulled up?"
35784Ha''ye larned anythin''''bout him o''late?"
35784Has any occurred to you, Gregoire?"
35784Has it indeed carried away Gwen Wynn?
35784Have I hit the nail upon the head?"
35784Have I not played it to perfection?"
35784Have you a reason?"
35784Have you any idea of the reason, Nelly?"
35784Have you any idea?"
35784Have you?"
35784He does not wait for her to speak; but asks excitedly:--"What''s the matter, mother?"
35784He does so, asking:"But, Miss Gwen, what will your aunt say to it?
35784He is himself interrogated the instant after, thus,--"You see that shadowed spot under the bank-- by the wall?"
35784He''s shown the white feather?"
35784He, 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?
35784Her face in the glass-- what the expression upon it?
35784Her reflection followed by the inquiry, called out--"_ C''est vous, mon mari?_""Of course it is.
35784His name, of course; but what the destination?
35784His name?"
35784His reverence is a Frenchman, is he?"
35784How are the other twenty being spent?
35784How are they to be occupied?
35784How came he intwoduced at Llangowen?"
35784How can she expect him to have resisted, or that his heart is still whole?
35784How comes it to have been there in the summer- house?
35784How could I expect or hope he would?
35784How could he help?
35784How could he otherwise?
35784How could he while his young mistress lived?
35784How could he, while so keenly suffering it for her?
35784How could it be otherwise?
35784How could she have lived throughout all that?
35784How could there, since the younger addresses the older as"uncle"; himself in return being styled"nevvy"?
35784How could there?
35784How could there?"
35784How could they otherwise?
35784How could they?
35784How else is her disappearance to be accounted for?
35784How far?"
35784How has she been taking it?"
35784How is it you have n''t gone?"
35784How is the odd time being spent by him?
35784I han''t heerd her name; what be it?"
35784I intend starting off within the hour, and, expecting a letter of some importance, may I ask you to glance over them again?"
35784I merely wished to knaw who Mr. White Cap is?"
35784I suppose leverets are plentiful just now, and easily caught, since they can no longer retreat to the standing corn?"
35784I suppose she thought I''d gone to my room, and did n''t wish to disturb me?
35784I suppose the train will be starting in a few minutes?"
35784I suppose you''ve heard?"
35784I take it they''re sufficient for reaching either bank of this river, supposing the skiff to get capsized, and you in it?"
35784I think you told me she often accompanies him down to the boat stair at his departure?"
35784I 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?"
35784If I mistake not, you can swim like a fish?"
35784If I''ve been rightly informed, Miss Wynn, it belongs to a relative of yours?"
35784If questioned about these commodities, what answer is he to make?
35784If you do n''t expect pleasure there, for what should you be in such haste to reach it?
35784In what does Mrs. Murdock differ from the rest of your Herefordshire fair?"
35784In what way?
35784Indirectly, then?
35784Instead, it but adds to her bewilderment, and she once more exclaims, almost repeating herself,--"Am I myself?
35784Instead, why not in angry spite fling it off-- as it has me?
35784Instead, with simulated calmness, he says:"Suppose I step out and see whether she be near at hand?"
35784Into France, too; for surely am I there?
35784Is it a dream?
35784Is it a sin?
35784Is it growing?
35784Is it hare?"
35784Is it labelled?"
35784Is it possible-- so early?"
35784Is it possible?"
35784Is it so, my son?
35784Is it true?"
35784Is n''t that so?"
35784Is that true, Gwendoline?
35784Is the priest jesting?
35784Is there any harm in it?"
35784Is there anything else you think of?"
35784Is there thought of it in her heart-- for him?
35784It is Miss Wynn who has commenced it, saying,--"You''ll come up to the house, and let me introduce you to my aunt?"
35784It is all gone?"
35784It is of him the priest speaks as king,--"Has he signed the will?"
35784It is the lady who speaks first:--"I understand you''ve been but a short while resident in our neighbourhood, Captain Ryecroft?"
35784It is to"blight his life''s bloom,"leaving him"an age all winters?"
35784It''s but natural I should love our beautiful Wye-- I, born on its banks, brought up on them, and, I suppose, likely to----""What?"
35784Jack?"
35784Knaw him?"
35784Less from observing his abstraction, than the slow, negligent movements of his knife and fork, the mother asks--"What''s the matter with ye, Jack?
35784Let me see-- was it?
35784Let me see; when will that be?"
35784Madame la Chatelaine oblivious, I apprehend; in the midst of her afternoon nap?"
35784May I ask what it is?"
35784May I ask who is this_ she_ you''re soliloquising about?
35784May I know them?"
35784Maybe,"he continues, in a tone of confidential suggestion,"there be somebody as you think ought to get a duckin''beside myself?"
35784Might_ he_ be a cousin?"
35784Miss Wynn?"
35784Mr. Murdock''s a character, then?"
35784Murdock has himself come easily by it, and why should he not be made as easily to part with it?
35784Murdock?"
35784Musgrave?"
35784Musgrave?"
35784Need I tell you who sent it, Richard Dempsey?"
35784No enemy, I hope?"
35784Not Monsieur Shenstone, after all?"
35784Not alone, I take it?"
35784Not much in the manner, I should say; but altogether the contrary,"she laughs, adding--"And how do you like our Wye?"
35784Not on the sick list, I hope?"
35784Not receiving immediate answer, Ellen again asked--"Is there any danger you fear?"
35784Not the Captain?"
35784Now, Captain, what do ye think o''the whole thing?"
35784Now, Jack, whose boat could that be if it wa''nt your''n?"
35784Now, Monsieur, do you comprehend me?"
35784Odd succession of events, is it not?"
35784Of course you''ll stay, gentlemen?
35784Only with my life?
35784Only, who these redemptionists are that take such interest in my spiritual welfare, and how I have come to be here, surely I may know?"
35784Or am I mad?
35784Or am I to wait for''em here?"
35784Or have my senses indeed forsaken me?"
35784Or in that face, dark and disfigured, who could recognise the once radiant countenance of Llangorren''s young heiress?
35784Or is it insanity?"
35784Or is there yet a chance of reconciliation?
35784Or would ye rather be took on up to the town?
35784Or, stepping off, does he spurn the boat with angry heel, as in angry speech he has done her whose name it bears?
35784Out at this hour?"
35784Perhaps in Paris?
35784Perhaps you''ll extend it, and favour me with the lady''s name?
35784Rang no bell?
35784Ryecroft smiles, further interrogating:--"What have you heard of her?"
35784S''pose we gie''em a capsize?"
35784S''pose we slide after, and see where she hangs out?"
35784Sadness, or joy?
35784Saying which, she slips several shillings into his hand, adding, as she notes the effect--"Do you think it sufficiently heavy?
35784Shall I call him in?"
35784Shall I run down to the boat- dock and see?"
35784She mayent like you young ladies to go rowin''by yourselves?
35784She''s at home, is n''t she?"
35784Shenstone?"
35784Shenstone?"
35784Shenstone?"
35784Should ye like take a drop o''somethin''''fores you lie down?"
35784Sidling up to the girl, he asks, in a tone which tells of lovers_ en rapport_, mutually, unmistakably--"When, Mary?"
35784So, my boy, you perceive the necessity of our acting with caution in this business, whatever trouble or time it may take-- don''t you?"
35784Some business?"
35784Some of your old English_ bonnes amies_, I suppose?"
35784Something happened between you, eh?"
35784Something wrong?"
35784Soon again he resumes his conjectured soliloquy:--"''Tan''t possible she ha''been to the Ferry, an''goed back again?
35784Suppose I write a note requesting his presence, with explanations?"
35784Suppose hers should some day go to the bottom, she being in it?"
35784Suppose we do?"
35784Surely I''d have heard it?
35784Surely it can not come from any of the sisters?
35784Surely our oaks, elms, and poplars can not be compared with the tall palms and graceful tree ferns of the tropics?"
35784Surely she has been found?"
35784Surely the Captain is not going to call on Mr. Lewin Murdock-- in amicable intercourse?
35784Surely you arn''t goin''out again the night?"
35784Surely, not a pleasure excursion, at such an unreasonable hour-- night just drawing down?
35784Taking her seat, she asks:"Where''s Gwen?"
35784Tell me why I am here?"
35784That appears too early for the after event?
35784The balin''pan, or that bit o''cushion in the stern?"
35784The boat coming back?
35784The first is,--"You''re not afraid of water, are you, Dick?"
35784The longer before fishing the thing up, the better it will be for our purposes: you comprehend?"
35784The same name, you''re sure?"
35784Then 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?"
35784Then succeeds inquiry as to how the death has been brought about; whether it be a case of suicide or assassination?
35784Then why be ye looking so black?"
35784There han''t been nobody to the house-- has there?"
35784They hold their_ téte- à- téte_ there at times, do they?"
35784They may not know where I am?
35784Three of them-- that at least in curious correspondence?
35784To the first,''How?''
35784True there will be four against two; but what of it?
35784True, your Wye is subject to sudden floods; might it have aught to do with them?"
35784Turning savagely on Ryecroft, he stammers out--"Hic-- ic-- who the blazes be you, Mr. White Cap?
35784Upon what do you base them?"
35784WHAT DOES HE WANT?
35784WHAT DOES HE WANT?
35784Waked for two days, as I understood you; then laid in her grave?
35784Was n''t it a little strange?"
35784Was n''t it,_ chèrie_?"
35784Was the girl good looking?"
35784Well, what''d I best do?
35784What answer did you gie to the man?"
35784What are your own thoughts about it, Jack?"
35784What are your reasons for doubting it?"
35784What boat could have been there but his own?
35784What can I remember?
35784What can he be doing down there?
35784What care I?"
35784What could it mean?
35784What could it mean?"
35784What did the sarvint say?"
35784What difference whether he find the grave of his griefs in Paris or Boulogne-- if find it he can?
35784What do I care?"
35784What do you know of_ him_?"
35784What for could have been angry words?
35784What ha''become o''they?"
35784What have you done with them?"
35784What have you got to reward me for it?"
35784What if there be some one on the road, or the river''s bank, and be seen in the act of capsizing his own boat?
35784What is it?
35784What is it?"
35784What is such a man doing in Herefordshire?
35784What is this barometer you seem to place such confidence in?
35784What is to compare with that to come?
35784What makes ye think he ha''been a forger?"
35784What man in love, profoundly, passionately as he, could believe his last chance eliminated, or have his ultimate hope extinguished?
35784What matter?
35784What mean you?"
35784What say you, Nell?"
35784What say you, Wingate?"
35784What should be my first pretence?
35784What should we do to''em, Captain?"
35784What sort of fellow is he?"
35784What sort of place is it?
35784What sort of sound?"
35784What step do you wish me to take first?"
35784What then?
35784What then?
35784What was it, pray?"
35784What will_ they_ do?--and think?
35784What would ye think o''my predecessor here bein''a burglar as well as smasher?"
35784What''s cheerin''him?
35784What''s that?
35784What''s the hour now?
35784What''s your idea, Mahon?"
35784What, after all, if his suspicions prove groundless, and it turn out that Captain Ryecroft is entirely innocent?
35784What, in Protestant England?
35784What_ has_ occurred there?"
35784What_ jeu d''esprit_ has he been perpetrating?"
35784When 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?''
35784When seated at the table, the Major asks,--"What on earth has delayed you, Vivian?
35784When will it be over?"
35784When, and where?"
35784When?
35784Whence all this plenty, within walls where of late and for so long has been such scarcity?
35784Where do you suppose, mother?"
35784Where is he who has both to be relied upon?
35784Where is the beautiful woman, by both beloved, fondly, passionately?
35784Where is the man who would not feel flattered, gratified, to be the shrine of such sacrifice, and from such a worshipper?
35784Where is the man who would not rather know his sweetheart dead than see her in the arms of a rival?
35784Where, and how, is one to be had?
35784Where?"
35784Where?"
35784Where?"
35784Whether in the country, or in a town among houses?
35784Which did she go by-- the path or the lane?
35784Which is she to take?
35784Which quarter is she in?
35784Which way did you come, Father Rogier-- the path or the lane?"
35784Whither then?
35784Who could fail to observe that pretty hand play, when you two were twining the ivy around the altar- rail?
35784Who could''a carried it across the river-- that night especial, wi''a flood lippin''full up to the banks?
35784Who dreams of that?
35784Who else could it be?
35784Who has brought me?
35784Who is to do this?
35784Who 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?
35784Who says I do?"
35784Who so circumstanced ever does?
35784Who would n''t with such laws-- unrighteous, oppressive to the poor?
35784Who, Père?"
35784Who, then, is the owner of the brooch, bracelets, and other bijouterie?
35784Who-- what is he?"
35784Who?"
35784Why all this?
35784Why did I ever leave you?"
35784Why did he not start earlier?
35784Why do you wish that?"
35784Why has it stopped there?
35784Why is he not here?
35784Why is it staying?
35784Why not, Miss Wynn?"
35784Why not?"
35784Why should I not dissemble?
35784Why should I?"
35784Why should I?"
35784Why should it?
35784Why should she have gone outside?
35784Why should that attract the attention of the young Herefordshire squire, causing him to start, as it first catches his eye?
35784Why then should I cling to it?
35784Why, may I ask?
35784Why?
35784Will ye let me wake her up?
35784Will your Reverence enlighten me?"
35784Within 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?
35784Wonder what it means?
35784Wonder why she did n''t wake me up?
35784Would you desire that?"
35784Wyquoft-- Wyquoft, you say?"
35784Ye remember my tellin''you, mother?"
35784Ye see what comes o''sich as they humbuggin''about in a boat?"
35784Ye understand me, mother?"
35784Ye''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?"
35784Yet, would you believe it, Nelly, notwithstanding all, I sometimes have a strange fear upon me?"
35784You comprehend?"
35784You comprehend?"
35784You do n''t expect the Father, our only visitor, to- night?
35784You have it in the house, I hope?"
35784You know his name?"
35784You know the place-- you know the ring, too?"
35784You mean Captain Ryecroft?"
35784You really admire it?"
35784You see that big poplar standing on the bank there?"
35784You see that building below?"
35784You see that?"
35784You will, wo n''t you?"
35784You''ll stand by me, Mahon?"
35784You''ll stay to dinner with us, Father Rogier?"
35784You''ll stay?
35784_ Comprenez- vous, chèrie?_""_ Parfaitement!_ But how is it to be brought to a termination.
35784a pleasure trip, I suppose?"
35784an''t he, Jack?"
35784and the men in it those whose names he had mentioned?
35784cry both gentlemen in a breath, seeming alike vexed by the intelligence, Shenstone mechanically interrogating:"On the river?"
35784ejaculated the Major, struck by the words, and their despondent tone,"what''s this, old fellow?
35784groans the young girl in despair, flinging herself along the pallet, and for the third time interrogating,"Am I myself, and dreaming?
35784he repeats, with a look of blank astonishment--"What the deuce does it mean?"
35784nigh on the stroke o''eleven?
35784she exclaims involuntarily, adding, in a timid whisper,"Was it, Gregoire?"
35784she exclaims, as if pricked by a pin,"Mademoiselle to be married?"
35784she exclaims, in feigned astonishment,"ye bean''t a comin''from the Ferry that way?"
35784she exclaims,"what are we to do?
35784the Morgans?"
35784this time you_ have_ an errand?
35784what d''ye mean?"
35784what do it mean?"
35784what is to become of me?
35784what shall we do?"
35784what way?"
35784what''s going on at Llangorren?"
35784where am I to find this means?"
35784where?"
35784who can tell?
35784why did I not know it before?"
35784would n''t you like to be sellin''her a pair of kids-- Jouvin''s best-- helpin''her draw them on, eh?"
35784yonder''s a very different sort of pedestrian approaching it?
35784you have learnt something since?"
35784you know it?"
35784you''ll break your journey here, and stay a few days with me?
35196A bottle of your best brandy-- the French cognac?
35196Addicted to dipsomania?
35196Always?
35196Am I myself? 35196 Among the invited Le Capitaine Ryecroft, I presume?"
35196Amongst them did ye include forgin''?
35196An otter, then?
35196And I hope worthy of Olympe Renault?
35196And all ready for starting?
35196And has there been no search yet?
35196And 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?"
35196And suppose we do that to- day?
35196And supposing her to be alive,he asks,"where do you think she is now?
35196And surer with a heavier one, as yourself, for instance?
35196And the waterman, too?
35196And what after?
35196And what did you hear?
35196And where am I to bring it?
35196And where has she slept?
35196And who do you suspect besides?
35196And 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_?"
35196And ye found them in the cubbert too?
35196And you do think he has gone for good?
35196And you really think she has n''t slept in her room?
35196And you''d like to be a rich one?
35196And you''re quite sure she has not slept in her room?
35196And, supposing him identified, what follows?
35196Are they there still?
35196Are you quite sure, sir? 35196 Are you sure of it?
35196As who?
35196At what?
35196Attending to culinary matters, I presume? 35196 Be there anythin''amiss?"
35196Be what?
35196Business-- wi''me?
35196But ai n''t he stayin''in the neighbourhood longer than he first spoke of doin''?
35196But could you as you are now-- with clothes on, boots, and everything?
35196But have you ever known of a boat being moored in there?
35196But he''s very good- looking?
35196But how can that concern any one save myself?
35196But how gone? 35196 But how is it to be avoided?"
35196But is there still?
35196But 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?
35196But surely it is not so? 35196 But then she was drowned also?
35196But there be new people there now, ye sayed?
35196But what do you advise my doing,_ Pere_? 35196 But what do you make of all that?"
35196But what made ye go there, Jack?
35196But what sort of man is he? 35196 But what''s to be the upshot?
35196But why are you looking so often below? 35196 But why ca n''t it be done?"
35196But 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?"
35196But why should we?
35196But why, Jack? 35196 But why, madame?"
35196But why?
35196But yaw do n''t think he''s an adventuwer?
35196But you are not recommending it, now-- in this little convent matter?
35196But you saw her in her coffin? 35196 But, shawly, that is n''t how the gentleman yondaw made acquaintance with the fair Gwendoline?"
35196But,continues the Major, greatly moved,"you''ll forgive me, old fellow, for being so inquisitive?
35196Can it be he?
35196Can you wonder at that?
35196Come, Captain Ryecroft; you know what I allude to?
35196Do n''t yield the_ Sassenach_ an inch?
35196Do you mean to say you''re not aware of what''s happened?
35196Do you suppose, Miss Lees, I have n''t penetrated your secret long ago? 35196 Do you think they''ll be out long?"
35196Does what mean?
35196Dressing, may be? 35196 Drowned?
35196Fear of what?
35196Frightened o''what? 35196 From the cold he caught that night, I suppose?"
35196Had n''t we better keep on, an''make sure?
35196Hansom, sir?
35196Has any letter reached Llangorren Court?
35196Have you a through ticket?
35196Have you any idea whose?
35196He visits often at the Court of late?
35196He with the vewy peculya head gear? 35196 He''s a gentleman, is he?"
35196He''s dying, then?
35196He''s gone then?
35196He''s out too, then?
35196Her name?
35196How can I help thinkin''it? 35196 How can he, Jack?"
35196How can it give you a belief in the girl being still alive? 35196 How far did the man say?
35196How long is it since she went off?
35196How long since they went off-- may I know, Miss Linton?
35196How should I know, my son? 35196 How soon do you think?
35196How then?
35196How was he introduced?
35196How would you like to live in that over yonder?
35196How would you like, somebody else being with you in it--_if made worth your while_?
35196How''d I like it, your Reverence? 35196 How''m I to help it, Miss Gwen?
35196How,_ Pere_?
35196How-- where?
35196I 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?
35196I mean for Miss Wynn-- since the night of that ball?
35196I wonder where the place is? 35196 In a worldly sense, you mean?
35196In that case, why did n''t you bring him in?
35196In what direction did you hear them?
35196In what respect? 35196 In what way could I?"
35196In what way? 35196 In what way?
35196In what way?
35196Is it likely they will, Miss Linton?
35196Is it strange, Ellen?
35196Is it yourself? 35196 Is n''t it a beautiful creature?"
35196Is that any reason we should n''t now?
35196Is that so?
35196Is there any landing- place there for a boat?
35196Is what true?
35196It be a bird, Captain? 35196 It is a love secret, then?
35196It is your place to look after the letters, I believe?
35196It may as well be written now-- may it not?
35196It''s very kind of you, Mahon; but that must depend on--"On what?
35196Let him-- as many as he likes; you do n''t suppose I''ll believe them?
35196Let me have a squint at it?
35196Let me hear it, Mahon?
35196Llangowen Court?
35196May I have a hint o''what it is?
35196May I know who that one is, Father Rogier?
35196Meanin''o''what, sir?
35196Mr George Shenstone?
35196Murdock is married, then?
35196My wife?
35196Nay, 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?"
35196No, Mahon; instead, proved himself as brave a fellow as ever stood before sword point, or dared pistol bullet?
35196Not here?
35196Oh, mother, what did you dream about them?
35196Old acquaintance; friend, I presume? 35196 Only whether-- whether she-- Miss Gwen, I mean-- said anything about riding to- day?"
35196Ormeston Hall? 35196 Perhaps you''d prefer it being boots?
35196Quite turn it upside down-- as your old truckle, eh?
35196Richard--_le braconnier_--you''re thinking of?
35196Rogue''s Ferry? 35196 Shall I read it to you?"
35196Shall I turn the boat back?
35196Sharp fellow?
35196So you think he have a notion o''her, Jack?
35196Somethin''to do wi''the coracle, have it?
35196Specify, Jack?
35196Starve on them, you mean?
35196Sure, then, the Captain han''t been to visit them?
35196Surely he will not be so stupid-- so insane? 35196 That all he said?"
35196That you, Mary?
35196That''s to be on Thursday, ye sayed?
35196The canwyll corph?
35196The heequall?
35196The man''s wife must know all about it?
35196The moon?
35196Then there''s no trouble between you?
35196Then what''s been a scarin''ye, mother?
35196There ha''something happened?
35196They did so?
35196They mean mischief,mutters Wingate;"what''d we best do, Captain?
35196To your great annoyance, no doubt; if it did not make you dreadfully jealous?
35196Too late for what? 35196 True, but does that bear upon our affair?"
35196True, how? 35196 True; and, availing myself of that, I might have been gone long since, as you supposed, but for--""For what?"
35196True; but, then, there may come a fare the morrow, an''what if there do? 35196 Two hours ago they got off, you say?"
35196WHERE''S GWEN?
35196Well, and what after?
35196Well; an''what if''t be?
35196Well; did it strike you as a cry that would come from one falling over the cliff-- by accident or otherwise?
35196Well; what of him?
35196Well; what of it?
35196Well?
35196What are they? 35196 What are they?
35196What article?
35196What be there so odd in that?
35196What can Jack be coming after? 35196 What can all that mean?
35196What can it mean?
35196What could be more ridiculous?
35196What do you mean, Wingate? 35196 What do you think it was?"
35196What fellow?
35196What had he to say about me?
35196What have you done with those addressed to Miss Wynn?
35196What have you heard, mother?
35196What have you?
35196What hour?
35196What is it, Wingate?
35196What is it?
35196What is it?
35196What is it?
35196What is it?
35196What is it?
35196What is it?
35196What is there specially repulsive about him?
35196What makes you suppose she is there?
35196What makes you think I''m lookin''that way?
35196What may it be, your Reverence?
35196What may that be, Father Rogier?
35196What mean you, Gregoire?
35196What more?
35196What more?
35196What news?
35196What other respects?
35196What other thing?
35196What reasons?
35196What say you, gentlemen?
35196What sort of a man?
35196What sort of anodyne?
35196What then?
35196What then?
35196What thing, pway?
35196What thing?
35196What train?
35196What was it? 35196 What''s strangest?"
35196What''s that for?
35196What''s the meaning of all this, Joe?
35196What, Gregoire?
35196What, may I ask?
35196What?
35196What?
35196What?
35196What?
35196What?
35196What?
35196Whatever be the matter wi''ye, Jack?
35196Whatever ha kep''ye, Jack? 35196 When is it to be?"
35196When is this horror to have an end? 35196 When might you want it, your Reverence?"
35196When?
35196Where are they?
35196Where are you going, Gwen?
35196Where be the poor man abidin''now?
35196Where can Gregoire have gone?
35196Where did you find them?
35196Where do they weesh the boat to be took? 35196 Where ha''ye heerd all this, Jack?"
35196Where may that be?
35196Where? 35196 Where?"
35196Where?
35196Where?
35196Where?
35196Which of us do you propose staying here? 35196 Which?"
35196Who can be asking for me?
35196Who could help liking it?
35196Who is Mr Shenstone?
35196Who is that young lady?
35196Who is this other?
35196Who the deuce is he?
35196Who then?
35196Who''s his endawser? 35196 Who?
35196Who?
35196Who?
35196Who?
35196Whose is it, Jack?
35196Why all this emotion about such a_ miserable_? 35196 Why d''y aw say that, Jawge?"
35196Why do you say so, Captain Ryecroft?
35196Why do you think that? 35196 Why must you?
35196Why odd?
35196Why should I? 35196 Why should it?"
35196Why so?
35196Why too well?
35196Why wo n''t it do in the mornin''?
35196Why, Ryecroft, you''re surely joking?
35196Wi''who?
35196Will you take it neat, or mixed wi''a drop o''water?
35196Wish to do what?
35196With safety?
35196Would it greatly surprise you, if to- night your husband did n''t come home to you?
35196Wynn, eh? 35196 Ye ha''been into the chapel buryin''groun''then?"
35196Ye had a big time last night at Llangorren?
35196Ye say ye know him better than ye did? 35196 Ye suspect somebody, then?"
35196Ye''re to see him the morrow, then?
35196Yes; well?
35196Yes?
35196You advise my going over to Llangorren?
35196You can write, Jack-- can''t you?
35196You do n''t think it was Dick and his coracle, then?
35196You have n''t yet told me his name?
35196You mean Mr Murdock?
35196You mean the tongue of_ le braconnier_?
35196You mean--?
35196You said nothing of this at the inquest?
35196You say you''ve brought them along?
35196You see something?
35196You think only_ days_?
35196You think there were others?
35196You''ll come up to the house, and let me introduce you to my aunt?
35196You''re not going to Paris now-- not this night?
35196You''re quite sure of that,_ ma fille_?
35196You''re quite sure there was a boat, Wingate?
35196You''re sure you''ll be able?
35196You''ve been to the Ferry, then?
35196You''ve done something to keep him quiet?
35196Your 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?
35196A gentle tapping at the door tells him the trigger is touched; and, responding to the signal, he calls out--"That you, Jack Wingate?
35196A man guilty of aught illegal-- much more one who has committed a capital crime-- would not be acting thus?
35196A nate thing, and a close shave, was n''t it?
35196Above all, who are the men in it?
35196Above all, why her distraught look, with the sigh accompanying it, as the baronet''s son went galloping out of the gate?
35196After a sip, he resumes speech with the remark:"If I mistake not, you are a poor man, Monsieur Dempsey?"
35196After a time it occurs to him he has been spoken to and asks--"What did you observe, Wingate?"
35196After a time, he again observes:--"You''ve said you do n''t know the ladies we''ve helped out of their little trouble?"
35196After all, what do it matter-- only a bit o''weed?"
35196All I said was, that somebody thinks so; and that is n''t I. Shall I tell you who it is?"
35196All that can be said is, she disappeared on the night of the ball, without telling any one-- no trace left behind-- except--""Except what?"
35196Am I not right?
35196Am I, indeed, to pass the remainder of my days within this dismal cell?
35196An''if I an''t astray, he be the one your Reverence thinks would not be any the worse o''a wettin''?"
35196An''t she a bewty?
35196An''t she?"
35196An''what d''ye want wi''me?"
35196And a pretty sight it is, is n''t it?
35196And 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?
35196And having gone so, the questions are, why and whither?
35196And how is she to give it, with least pain to him?
35196And if other, what its business?
35196And if suicide, why?
35196And is it not for him they are there; risking liberty-- it may be life?
35196And the cry heard so soon after?
35196And the men in it those whose names he has mentioned?
35196And the quarrel; how did it end?
35196And this very day, what meant Mr Shenstone by that sudden and abrupt departure?
35196And was in the water some time?"
35196And what but the body of Gwendoline Wynn?
35196And what can be keeping_ her_?
35196And who?"
35196And why am I to rejoice?"
35196And why should n''t she, Pere Rogier?
35196And you think she will be able to obtain the information, without in any way compromising herself?"
35196Anyhow, he''ll want her to go down to them grand doin''s at Llangowen Court?"
35196Are they not, Mr Musgrave?"
35196As he is not questioned about these, why should he?
35196As he joins her going out, she asks,_ sotto voce_:--"_ C''est arrange_?"
35196As he stands with eyes glaring upon them, he is again accosted by his inquisitive acquaintance, who asks:"What''s the matter, Jawge?
35196Be''t anybody ha''stoled the things out o''the boat?
35196Bean''t there somethin''amiss?"
35196Beast, bird, or fish?"
35196Being so observant, I wonder if this everybody has also observed how I receive them?"
35196Besides, is he not back there-- come of his own accord-- to confront his accusers, if any there still be?
35196Brought up under the_ regime_ of Louis and trained in the school of Eugenie, why need she fear either social slight or exclusion?
35196But Mahon, drawing them for himself, says searchingly--"Then you have a suspicion there''s been what''s commonly called foul play?"
35196But can it be the priest who is in it?
35196But has she been borne off by force, or went she willingly?
35196But have you any thoughts as to how we should proceed?"
35196But how came I to it?
35196But how could she think that?
35196But how does it corrupt them?"
35196But how have I come into it?
35196But how is it to be hindered?"
35196But how, your Reverence?
35196But possibly better not?
35196But speaking seriously, Ryecroft, as you say you''re on business, may I know its nature?"
35196But the Cognac?
35196But the latter-- is it still alive and flourishing?
35196But the throe passing, she again pursues her soliloquy, now in more conjectural strain:--"Strange that no friend has come after me?
35196But the time?
35196But what am I thinkin''o''?
35196But what do you conclude from its not having been?"
35196But what has that to do with your daughter''s going to the Ferry?"
35196But what is beauty to her with all these adjuncts?
35196But what its width or depth, compared with that other something between?
35196But what led ye to think he ha''been also in the housebreaking line?"
35196But what matters it?
35196But what''s the use of talking of a thing not likely to happen?"
35196But what''s your argument?"
35196But where are they?
35196But where is the other, the false one?
35196But whither?"
35196But who do you suspect?"
35196But who the deuce is the gentleman?
35196But why be you so partic''lar about my goin''out-- this night more''n any other?"
35196But why do ye ask?
35196But why on each and every occasion has he found a gentleman there-- the same every time-- George Shenstone by name?
35196But you surely do n''t suppose I could think of him as a sweetheart?
35196But''s what brought you to Boulogne?"
35196But, maybe, I make too free, asking your business in Boulogne?"
35196By the way, I hear you''re about to have grand doings at the Court-- a ball, and what not?"
35196By the way, have I got my purse with me?"
35196By the way, what have you got in that black jack?"
35196Ca n''t a been anybody else?
35196Ca n''t be a brother?
35196Can I take the liberty of asking him into your house, Mahon?"
35196Can I?"
35196Can it be possible, that what they are looking upon is she who once was Gwendoline Wynn?
35196Can she be English?
35196Can the chasm which angry words have created be bridged over?
35196Can you?"
35196Controlling it, the other asks, with diminished interest, still earnestly:--"What leads you to think that way, Wingate?
35196Did n''t I, your Reverence?
35196Did n''t it strike you so, Nelly?"
35196Did ye hear that, Captain?"
35196Do n''t you think so?"
35196Do you chance to know him?"
35196Do you know where you can borrow such, or hire it?"
35196Do you really mean that, Captain Ryecroft?"
35196Does anyone know who was his boatman?"
35196Does he live at Llangorren?
35196Does n''t it?"
35196Dreaming?
35196Dropped, of course; but under what circumstances?
35196Dropping egg and cup, in stark astonishment, she demands:"What do you mean, Gibbons?"
35196Dublin is his native place; but what would or could he now do there?
35196Even if it were, you seem to forget that her mother, father-- all of them-- must have been cognisant of these facts-- if facts?"
35196Fell from a foot plank, you told me?
35196Flirting while engaged-- what might she do when married?
35196For himself?
35196For its solution he appeals to Ryecroft, asking:--"How about the moon?"
35196For what are either now to him?
35196George Shenstone?
35196Giving 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?"
35196Ha''the thing been cut off, or pulled up?"
35196Ha''ye larned anythin''''bout him o''late?"
35196Has any occurred to you, Gregoire?"
35196Has it indeed carried away Gwen Wynn?
35196Have I hit the nail upon the head?"
35196Have I not played it to perfection?"
35196Have been up to that famous catching place by the Ferry, and are on the way home downward-- to Rock Weir, no doubt?
35196Have you a reason?"
35196Have you any idea of the reason, Nelly?"
35196Have you any idea?"
35196Have you put down the date?
35196Have you?"
35196He does not wait for her to speak, but asks excitedly:--"What''s the matter, mother?"
35196He does so, asking:"But, Miss Gwen; what will your aunt say to it?
35196He is himself interrogated the instant after-- thus:--"You see that shadowed spot under the bank-- by the wall?"
35196He seeks an explanation:--"How is it, Jack, that you, living but a short league above, do n''t know all about these people?"
35196He''s shown the white feather?"
35196He, 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?
35196Her face in the glass-- what the expression upon it?
35196Her reflection followed by the inquiry, called out--"_ C''est vous, mon mari_?"
35196His name of course, but what the destination?
35196His name?"
35196His reverence is a Frenchman, is he?"
35196Holding out the card Ryecroft says interrogatively--"Is this meant for me, Mr Shenstone?"
35196How are the other twenty being spent?
35196How are they to be occupied?
35196How came he intwoduced at Llangowen?"
35196How can she expect him to have resisted, or that his heart is still whole?
35196How comes it to have been there in the summer- house?
35196How could I expect, or hope, he would?
35196How could he help?
35196How could he otherwise?
35196How could he while his young mistress lived?
35196How could it be otherwise?
35196How could she have lived throughout all that?
35196How could there, since the younger addresses the older as"uncle"; himself in return being styled"nevvy?"
35196How could there?
35196How could there?"
35196How could they otherwise?
35196How could they?
35196How else is her disappearance to be accounted for?
35196How far?"
35196How has she been taking it?"
35196How is it you have n''t gone?"
35196How is the odd time being spent by him?
35196I ask you again-- have you thought of anything, Gregoire?"
35196I han''t heerd her name; what be it?"
35196I intend starting off within the hour, and expecting a letter of some importance, may I ask you to glance over them again?"
35196I may be wronging them all-- friends-- relatives-- even him?
35196I merely wished to know who Mr White Cap is?"
35196I suppose leverets are plentiful just now, and easily caught, since they can no longer retreat to the standing corn?"
35196I suppose she thought I''d gone to my room, and did n''t wish to disturb me?
35196I suppose the train will be starting in a few minutes?"
35196I suppose you''ve heard?"
35196I take it they''re sufficient for reaching either bank of this river, supposing the skiff to get capsized and you in it?"
35196I think, you told me she often accompanies him down to the boat stair, at his departure?"
35196I 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?"
35196If I mistake not, you can swim like a fish?"
35196If I''ve been rightly informed, Miss Wynn, it belongs to a relative of yours?"
35196If he has gone to the Ferry first, and sets to drinking in the Harp?
35196If questioned about these commodities, what answer is he to make?
35196If you do n''t expect pleasure there, for what should you be in such haste to reach it?
35196In other words, was it suicide, accident, or murder?
35196In what does Mrs Murdock differ from the rest of your Herefordshire fair?"
35196In what way?
35196Indirectly, then?
35196Instead, it but adds to her bewilderment, and she once more exclaims, almost repeating herself:"Am I myself?
35196Instead, with simulated calmness, he says:"Suppose I step out and see whether she be near at hand?"
35196Into France, too; for surely am I there?
35196Is it a dream?
35196Is it a sin?
35196Is it growing?
35196Is it hare?"
35196Is it labelled?"
35196Is it possible-- so early?"
35196Is it possible?"
35196Is it so, my son?
35196Is it to"blight his life''s bloom,"leaving him"an age all winters?"
35196Is it true?"
35196Is n''t that so?"
35196Is that true, Gwendoline?
35196Is the priest jesting?
35196Is there any harm in it?"
35196Is there thought of it in her heart-- for him?
35196It can not be the boat she has seen rowing off above?
35196It is all gone?"
35196It is of him the priest speaks as king:--"Has he signed the will?"
35196It is the lady who speaks first:--"I understand you''ve been but a short while resident in our neighbourhood, Captain Ryecroft?"
35196It''s but natural I should love our beautiful Wye-- I, born on its banks, brought up on them, and, I suppose, likely to--""What?"
35196It''s the voice of a girl?
35196Jack?"
35196Knaw him?"
35196Less from observing his abstraction, than the slow, negligent movements of his knife and fork, the mother asks--"What''s the matter with ye, Jack?
35196Let me see-- was it?
35196Let me see; when will that be?"
35196Madame la Chatelaine oblivious, I apprehend; in the midst of her afternoon nap?"
35196May I ask what it is?"
35196May I ask who is this_ she_ you''re soliloquising about?
35196May I know them?"
35196Maybe,"he continues in tone of confidential suggestion,"there be somebody as you think ought to get a duckin''beside myself?"
35196Might_ he_ be a cousin?"
35196Miss Wynn?"
35196Mr Murdock''s a character, then?"
35196Murdock has himself come easily by it, and why should he not be made as easily to part with it?
35196Need I tell you who sent it, Richard Dempsey?"
35196Nigh on the stroke o''eleven?
35196No enemy, I hope?"
35196Not Monsieur Shenstone, after all?"
35196Not alone, I take it?"
35196Not much in the manner, I should say; but altogether the contrary,"she laughs, adding--"And how do you like our Wye?"
35196Not on the sick list, I hope?"
35196Not receiving immediate answer, Ellen again asks--"Is there any danger you fear?"
35196Not the Captain?"
35196Nothing to surprise him that?
35196Now, Captain, what do ye think o''the whole thing?"
35196Now, Jack, whose boat could that be if it wa''nt your''n?"
35196Now, Monsieur, do you comprehend me?"
35196Odd succession of events, is it not?"
35196Of course you''ll stay, gentlemen?
35196Oh, no; I noticed nothin''o''all that, not I?
35196Only with my life?
35196Only, who these redemptionists are that take such interest in my spiritual welfare, and how I have come to be here, surely I may know?"
35196Or am I mad?
35196Or am I to wait for''em here?"
35196Or have my senses indeed forsaken me?"
35196Or in that face, dark and disfigured, who could recognise the once radiant countenance of Llangorren''s young heiress?
35196Or is there yet a chance of reconciliation?
35196Or would ye rather be took on up to the town?
35196Or, is it insanity?"
35196Or, stepping off, does he spurn the boat with angry heel, as in angry speech he has done her whose name it bears?
35196Out at this hour?"
35196Perhaps in Paris?
35196Perhaps you''ll extend it, and favour me with the lady''s name?
35196Perhaps, better it were so?
35196Rang no bell?
35196Ryecroft smiles, further interrogating:--"What have you heard of her?"
35196S''pose we gie''em a capsize?"
35196S''pose we slide after, and see where she hangs out?"
35196Sadness, or joy?
35196Saying which, she slips several shillings into his hand, adding, as she notes the effect,--"Do you think it sufficiently heavy?
35196Shall I call him in?"
35196Shall I run down to the boat- dock and see?"
35196Shall we, Mr Musgrave?"
35196She knows he has conceived some scheme to disembarrass her of a husband, she no longer care?
35196She knows how Shenstone suffers-- how could she help knowing?
35196She mayent like you young ladies to go rowin''by yourselves?
35196She''s at home, is n''t she?"
35196Should ye like take a drop o''somethin''''fores you lie down?"
35196Sidling up to the girl, he asks in a tone which tells of lovers_ en rapport_, mutually, unmistakably--"When, Mary?"
35196So shall I; the blackest in all the convent''s wardrobe if they wish it-- aye, crape if they insist on it?
35196So, 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?"
35196Some business?"
35196Some of your old English_ bonnes amies_, I suppose?"
35196Somethin''crooked''s come between''em at the ball-- bit o''jealousy, maybe?
35196Something happened between you, eh?"
35196Something wrong?"
35196Soon again he resumes his conjectured soliloquy:--"''Tan''t possible she ha''been to the Ferry, an''goed back again?
35196Suppose I write a note requesting his presence, with explanations?"
35196Suppose hers should some day go to the bottom she being in it?"
35196Suppose we do?"
35196Surely I''d have heard it?
35196Surely it can not be?
35196Surely it can not come from any of the sisters?
35196Surely our oaks, elms, and poplars can not be compared with the tall palms and graceful tree ferns of the tropics?"
35196Surely she has been found?"
35196Surely the Captain is not going to call on Mr Lewin Murdock-- in amicable intercourse?
35196Surely you arn''t goin''out again the night?"
35196Surely, not a pleasure excursion, at such an unreasonable hour-- night just drawing down?
35196Taking her seat, she asks:"Where''s Gwen?"
35196Tell me something of its nature?"
35196Tell me why I am here?"
35196That appears too early for the after event?
35196The balin''pan, or that bit o''cushion in the stern?"
35196The boat coming back?
35196The first is--"You''re not afraid of water, are you, Dick?"
35196The longer before fishing the thing up, the better it will be for our purposes: you comprehend?"
35196The which, my amiable Joseph, you''ll not do-- I''m sure you will not?"
35196Then 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?"
35196Then succeeds inquiry as to how the death has been brought about; whether it be a case of suicide or assassination?
35196Then why be ye looking so black?"
35196There han''t been nobody to the house-- has there?"
35196They hold their_ tete- a- tete_ there at times; do they?"
35196They may have ate it up?"
35196They may not know where I am?
35196To the first,` How?''
35196True there will be four against two; but what of it?
35196True, your Wye is subject to sudden floods; might it have ought to do with them?"
35196Upon what do you base them?"
35196WHAT DOES HE WANT?
35196Waked for two days, as I understood you; then laid in her grave?
35196Was n''t it a little strange?"
35196Was n''t it,_ cherie_?"
35196Was the girl good looking?"
35196Well, what''d I best do?
35196What answer did you gie to the man?"
35196What are your own thoughts about it, Jack?"
35196What are your reasons for doubting it?"
35196What boat could have been there but his own?
35196What can I remember?
35196What can he be doing down there?
35196What care I?"
35196What could it mean?"
35196What did the sarvint say?"
35196What difference whether he find the grave of his griefs in Paris or Boulogne-- if find it he can?
35196What do I care?"
35196What do you know of_ him_?"
35196What for could have been the angry words?
35196What ha''become o''they?"
35196What have you done with them?"
35196What have you got to reward me for it?"
35196What if there be some one on the road, or the river''s bank, and be seen in the act of capsizing his own boat?
35196What is it?
35196What is it?"
35196What is such a man doing in Herefordshire?
35196What is this barometer you seem to place such confidence in?
35196What is to compare with that to come?
35196What makes ye think he a''been a forger?"
35196What man in love, profoundly, passionately as he, could believe his last chance eliminated; or have his ultimate hope extinguished?
35196What matter?
35196What mean you?"
35196What say you, Nell?"
35196What say you, Wingate?"
35196What should be my first pretence?
35196What should we do to''em, Captain?"
35196What sort of fellow is he?"
35196What sort of place is it?
35196What sort of sound?"
35196What step do you wish me to take, first?"
35196What then?
35196What then?
35196What was it, pray?"
35196What will_ they_ do?--and think?
35196What would ye think o''my predecessor here bein''a burglar as well as smasher?"
35196What''s cheerin''him?
35196What''s that?
35196What''s the hour now?
35196What''s your idea, Mahon?"
35196What, after all, if his suspicions prove groundless, and it turn out that Captain Ryecroft is entirely innocent?
35196What, in Protestant England?
35196What_ has_ occurred there?"
35196What_ jeu d''esprit_ has he been perpetrating?"
35196When 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?''
35196When seated at the table, the Major asks--"What on earth has delayed you, Vivian?
35196When will it be over?"
35196When, and where?"
35196When?
35196Whence all this plenty, within walls where of late and for so long, has been such scarcity?
35196Where do you suppose, mother?"
35196Where is he who has both to be relied upon?
35196Where is the beautiful woman, by both beloved, fondly, passionately?
35196Where is the man who would not feel flattered, gratified, to be the shrine of such sacrifice, and from such a worshipper?
35196Where is the man who would not rather know his sweetheart dead than see her in the arms of a rival?
35196Where, and how, is one to be had?
35196Where?"
35196Where?"
35196Where?"
35196Whether in the country, or in a town among houses?
35196Which did she go by-- the path or the lane?
35196Which is she to take?
35196Which quarter is she in?
35196Which way did you come, Father Rogier-- the path or the lane?"
35196Whither then?
35196Who Pere?"
35196Who could fail to observe that pretty hand play, when you two were twining the ivy around the altar- rail?
35196Who could''a carried it across the river-- that night especial, wi''a flood lippin''full up to the banks?
35196Who dreams of that?
35196Who else could it be?
35196Who has brought me?
35196Who is to do this?
35196Who 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?
35196Who says I do?"
35196Who so circumstanced ever does?
35196Who would n''t with such laws-- unrighteous-- oppressive to the poor?
35196Who, then, is the owner of the brooch, bracelets, and other bijouterie?
35196Who,_ Pere_?
35196Who-- what is he?"
35196Who?"
35196Why all this?
35196Why did I ever leave you?"
35196Why did he not start earlier?
35196Why do you wish that?"
35196Why examining those things, he already knows all about, as she herself?
35196Why has it stopped there?
35196Why is he not here?
35196Why is it staying?
35196Why not, Miss Wynn?"
35196Why not?"
35196Why should I not dissemble?
35196Why should I?"
35196Why should I?"
35196Why should it?
35196Why should she have gone outside?
35196Why should that attract the attention of the young Herefordshire squire, causing him to start, as it first catches his eye?
35196Why, may I ask?
35196Why?
35196Will ye let me wake her up?
35196Will your Reverence enlighten me?"
35196Within 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?
35196Wonder why she did n''t wake me up?
35196Would n''t be a tourist party-- starting off so early?
35196Would you desire that?"
35196Wyquoft-- Wyquoft, you say?"
35196Ye remember my tellin''you, mother?"
35196Ye see what comes o''sich as they humbuggin''about in a boat?"
35196Ye understand me, mother?"
35196Ye''ll let me row you up the river-- leastways for a couple o''miles further?
35196Ye''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?"
35196Yet, would you believe it, Nelly, notwithstanding all, I sometimes have a strange fear upon me?"
35196You comprehend?"
35196You comprehend?"
35196You do n''t expect the Father, our only visitor, to- night?
35196You have it in the house, I hope?"
35196You have learnt something since?"
35196You know his name?"
35196You know the place-- you know the ring too?"
35196You mean Captain Ryecroft?"
35196You really admire it?"
35196You remember my sayin''so, Captain; and that I took it to be some o''the sarvint girls shoutin''up there?"
35196You see that big poplar standing on the bank there?"
35196You see that building below?"
35196You see that?"
35196You will, wo n''t you?"
35196You''ll stand by me, Mahon?"
35196You''ll stay to dinner with us, Father Rogier?"
35196You''ll stay?
35196You''re her maid-- you undressed her?"
35196_ Comprenez- vous, cherie_?"
35196an''t he, Jack?"
35196are you sure of that, Father Rogier?"
35196cry both gentlemen in a breath, seeming alike vexed by the intelligence, Shenstone mechanically interrogating:"On the river?"
35196ejaculated the Major, struck by the words, and their despondent tone,"what''s this, old fellow?
35196groans the young girl in despair, flinging herself along the pallet, and for the third time interrogating,"am I myself, and dreaming?
35196he repeats with a look of blank astonishment--"What the deuce does it mean?"
35196he says, going on in conjectural chain;"and that French priest-- he probably the instigator of it?
35196possibly had a hand in the deed itself?
35196she asks, soon as he has mounted up to her,"_ Quelque chose a tort_?"
35196she exclaims involuntarily, adding, in a timid whisper,"Was it, Gregoire?"
35196she exclaims, as if pricked by a pin,"Mademoiselle to be married?"
35196she exclaims, in feigned astonishment,"ye beant a comin''from the Ferry that way?"
35196she exclaims,"what are we to do?
35196the Morgans?"
35196this time you_ have_ an errand?
35196vite- vite_?"
35196what d''ye mean?"
35196what do it mean?"
35196what is to become of me?
35196what shall we do?"
35196what way?"
35196what''s going on at Llangorren?"
35196where am I to find this means?"
35196where?"
35196who can tell?
35196why did I not know it before?"
35196would n''t you like to be sellin''her a pair of kids-- Jouvin''s best-- helpin''her draw them on, eh?"
35196yonder''s a very different sort of pedestrian approaching it?
35196you know it?"
35196you''ll break your journey here, and stay a few days with me?
730Have 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, Bill?
730''What do you mean, sir?''
730''What do you mean?''
730''What do you mean?''
730''What do you mean?''
730''What do you mean?''
730''What do you mean?''
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?''
730A porochial''prentis, who is at present a dead- weight; a millstone, as I may say, round the porochial throat?
730Ai n''t it beautiful?''
730Ai n''t there any other line open?''
730Ai n''t you a- trembling while I speak, sir?''
730Allow me-- Miss Rose, will you permit me?
730And do n''t he know me?
730And how dare you encourage him, you insolent minx?
730And what''s six weeks of it?
730And why should they?
730Any slops, eh?''
730Are you Nancy?''
730Are you a man?''
730Are you any fresher now, or do you want the iron candlestick to wake you thoroughly?''
730Are you aweer, Mrs. Mann, that you are, as I may say, a porochial delegate, and a stipendiary?''
730Are you going to take upon yourselves to swear, that that boy upstairs is the boy that was put through the little window last night?
730Are you?''
730At length she said,''You''re going by coach, sir?
730Bad people have fevers sometimes; have n''t they, eh?
730Beak''s order, eh?
730Brownlow, I believe, sir?''
730Bumble?''
730Bumble?''
730Bumble?''
730Bumble?''
730Bumble?''
730Bumble?''
730Bumble?''
730But I can go and earn some more, when I like; ca n''t I, Fagin?''
730But I may ask you two questions, may I?''
730But, to speak seriously, Harry; has any communication from the great nobs produced this sudden anxiety on your part to be gone?''
730CHAPTER XLIII WHEREIN IS SHOWN HOW THE ARTFUL DODGER GOT INTO TROUBLE''And so it was you that was your own friend, was it?''
730CHAPTER XXXI INVOLVES A CRITICAL POSITION''Who''s that?''
730Can I have a word or two with you in private, if you please?''
730Can it be used against me?''
730Corney,''said Mr. Bumble, stooping over the matron,''what is this, ma''am?
730Corney?''
730Corney?''
730Corney?''
730Corney?''
730Corney?''
730D''ye hear me?''
730D''ye hear me?''
730D''ye hear?''
730D''ye hear?''
730Day?
730Do I understand that he asked for more, after he had eaten the supper allotted by the dietary?''
730Do 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?''
730Do n''t you know it?
730Do n''t you know it?''
730Do n''t you know the devil when he''s got a great- coat on?''
730Do n''t you see all this?''
730Do n''t you take any pride out of yourself?
730Do you guess that I have come to remind you of a promise?''
730Do you hear me?''
730Do you hear me?''
730Do you hear me?''
730Do you hear sir?
730Do you hear, somebody?''
730Do you hear?''
730Do you know a man named Monks?''
730Do you know this young lady, sir?''
730Do you know what you''re doing?''
730Do you know who you are, and what you are?''
730Do you mind that time when Conkey was robbed of his money, though?
730Do you think so now?''
730Do you understand me?''
730Do you understand, mistress?''
730Do you want to rob me, or to murder me?
730Eh, Charlotte?
730Eh?
730Eh?''
730Fagin?''
730Fevers are not peculiar to good people; are they?
730Giles, are you a Protestant?''
730Good to eat, Harry?''
730Grimwig, will you leave us for a few minutes?''
730Hand over, will you?''
730Has anything happened, ma''am?
730Have you any objection to see him in my presence?''
730Have you got a coach''us here, that you could put it up in, for five or ten minutes?''
730Have you seen the thief?''
730He 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?
730He did n''t drop out of the clouds, did he, master?''
730He inquired, as he pointed to Monks,''Do you know that person?''
730He 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?''
730He was interesting, was n''t he?
730He''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?''
730He''s your husband, eh?''
730How do you feel, my dear?''
730How long before?''
730How should he, when their possessors so seldom know themselves?
730How should you like to grow up a clever man, and write books, eh?''
730How will he stand in the Newgate Calendar?
730I am a very little boy, sir; and it is so-- so--''''So what?''
730I dare say the boy is n''t too dainty to eat''em-- are you, boy?''
730I have not told you all, have I?''
730I need not tell you he was snared away before I knew his history--''''Why not?''
730I say, how the Artful would bother''em would n''t he?''
730If they shot him dead, I was not the cause; do you hear me?
730If 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?''
730If 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?''
730Ill- treating the boys, you covetous, avaricious, in- sa- ti- a- ble old fence?''
730Ingenious workman, ai n''t he, Oliver?''
730Is Fagin upstairs?''
730Is he grateful, ma''am?
730Is he grateful?
730Is it true, or a lie?''
730Is n''t that enough for the old wretch, without blows?''
730Is n''t there anybody here,''she said, looking round,''that will see a simple message carried for a poor wretch like me?''
730Is she dozing, old lady?''
730Is that it, my dear?''
730Is that you, Mr. Bumble, sir?''
730Is the poor creature much hurt?''
730Is-- is-- that door shut?''
730It 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?''
730It was very dark; why did n''t they bring a light?
730Just step into this corner a moment, will you?''
730Liberal terms, Mr. Sowerberry, liberal terms?''
730Mann?''
730Master Bates felt it so; and again said,''What do you mean?''
730Maylie?''
730Maylie?''
730Mr. Brownlow gently shook his head to impose silence on his friend, and resumed:''Do you know where this poor boy is now?''
730Mr. Gamfield''s countenance brightened, as, with a quick step, he returned to the table, and said,''What''ll you give, gen''l''men?
730Mrs. Mann raised her hands in astonishment; but added, after a moment''s reflection,''How comes he to have any name at all, then?''
730Must 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?''
730My dear child, what distresses you?''
730No one who could hear, and might, by possibility, understand?''
730Now, Nolly, dear, are you ready?''
730Now, my dear, about that crib at Chertsey; when is it to be done, Bill, eh?
730Now, policeman, what is this?''
730Now, the question is, whether these men are justified by the fact; if not, in what situation do they place themselves?''
730Oliver White, eh?''
730Or has my probable advancement to riches and honour, given this scruple birth?''
730Or how could she postpone the journey without exciting suspicion?
730Payment stopped at the Bank?
730Pray, how is Brittles?''
730Said he wanted to, did he, my boy?''
730Send him out with the Dodger and Charley?
730Shall us, Oliver, eh?
730Shall we have some bread, dear?''
730She told it all every word without a threat, without a murmur-- she did-- did she not?''
730So like Mr. Grannett, was n''t it?''
730Sowerberry, will you have the goodness to come here a moment, my dear?''
730Spyers loses sight of him a minute as he turns a corner; shoots round; sees a little crowd; dives in;"Which is the man?"
730Strip the bishop of his apron, or the beadle of his hat and lace; what are they?
730That''s the little window that he got in at, eh?
730The Jew shook his head impatiently, and said in a whisper,''Is_ he_ here?''
730The laced coat, and the cocked hat; where were they?
730The woman know what it is, does she?''
730There are a good many of''em, ai n''t there?
730There is no possibility of any mistake on your part, my boy, is there?''
730To this inquiry the girl returned the not uncommon, but rather evasive reply of''I do n''t know; where do you come from?''
730To whom?
730Too bad, is n''t it, Oliver?''
730Was it that as frightened you, love?''
730Was you never on the mill?''
730What DO you know of him?''
730What account does he give of himself?
730What am I to dodge her for?
730What are yer made for?''
730What are yer talking about?
730What are you doing here?''
730What are you now?''
730What are you stopping me for?''
730What are you thinking of?''
730What availed the noise and bustle of cheerful morning, which penetrated even there, to him?
730What books are these?
730What can I do to save him, sir?''
730What can I do to serve you?''
730What could I do?
730What could Mr. Bumble do?
730What course of action could she determine upon, which could be adopted in eight- and- forty hours?
730What do you look at me so hard for?''
730What do you mean by leaving a man in this state, three weeks and more, you false- hearted wagabond?''
730What do you mean by this noise, you hussies?''
730What do you mean?
730What do you think of that?''
730What do you think?''
730What fascination is it that can take you back, and make you cling to wickedness and misery?
730What gentleman?''
730What have paupers to do with soul or spirit?
730What have you been doing to yourself?''
730What have you got to say, sir?''
730What have you seen?
730What is he, after all, they would say?
730What is he?
730What is the matter?''
730What is the matter?''
730What new power can I acquire?''
730What odds in that?''
730What of that?
730What right have they to butcher me?''
730What then?''
730What would he do with coals?
730What''ll you give?''
730What''s amiss now, eh?''
730What''s that?''
730What''s the matter?''
730What''s the name of the house-- t- h- r-- three what?''
730What''s the odds where it comes from?
730What''s the row?''
730What''s the row?''
730What''s your name?''
730What?''
730What_ could_ the boy be crying for?
730When is it to be done?
730When is it to come off?''
730When there are two parties to a bargain, it is only reasonable that the interests of both should be consulted; is it, my good friend?''
730When was it?''
730When?
730Where am I to go?''
730Where am I to wait for her?
730Where are they hiding?
730Where are they?
730Where are those papers?''
730Where could he go, that was near and not too public, to get some meat and drink?
730Where did he come from?
730Where does he live?''
730Where have I been brought to?''
730Where have they been?
730Where have you been, this long, long while?
730Where is she?''
730Where the devil have you been?''
730Where''s Sikes, you thief?''
730Where''s the gal going to at this time of night?''
730Where''s the policeman?
730Where''s the third?
730Where?
730Which is it?''
730Which way have they taken?''
730Who but poor ould Fagin was the means of your having such a handy girl about you?''
730Who is he?
730Who is it?
730Who is this?
730Who was the mother?
730Who''ll say as much as that, I should like to know; eh, Fagin?''
730Why are you awake?
730Why ca n''t I lie by for a week or so, and, forcing blunt from Fagin, get abroad to France?
730Why did n''t you take my advise in the beginning; you would if he had n''t had a fever, I suppose, eh?
730Why did n''t you write, my dear, and say you were coming?
730Why do n''t you let the boy alone?''
730Why do you talk to me of brothers?
730Why do you wish to return to companions you paint in such terrible colors?
730Why have they not been here?''
730Why not have kept him here among the rest, and made a sneaking, snivelling pickpocket of him at once?''
730Will you return to this gang of robbers, and to this man, when a word can save you?
730Will you stand upon your legs, you young devil?''
730Will you?''
730Wo n''t he be glad to see you?
730Wot about it?''
730Wot d''ye mean?''
730Wot does it mean?''
730Wot is it?''
730Wot is this here business?
730Wot''s it all about, Fagin?
730Would n''t they, Tom White, eh?''
730Would you go and be dependent on your friends?''
730You do n''t mind sleeping among the coffins, I suppose?
730You do n''t object to that?''
730You know you''re an orphan, I suppose?''
730You like it so, I suppose?''
730You must pardon my finding fault with you,--but why not have brought him?''
730You understand me?''
730You were beadle here, once; were you not?''
730You will not refuse to do this, mother?''
730You wo n''t, wo n''t you?
730You would like, first, to see the place where the thieves made their attempt, I suppose?''
730You''d never have me anything else, if you had your will, except now;--the humour does n''t suit you, does n''t it?''
730You''re afraid of our getting the better of you, are you?''
730You''ve been a stealing''em, have you?
730_ Can_ he be innocent?
730asked Monks, in the same hollow whisper;''No sick wretch or idiot in some other bed?
730can you really believe that this delicate boy has been the voluntary associate of the worst outcasts of society?''
730cried Mr. Bumble, with ill- feigned enthusiasm,''or is that little Oliver?
730cried Oliver,''What is it?''
730cried the Jew,''alone?''
730cried the gentleman,''Better or worse?''
730demanded Harry:''are you sure?''
730exclaimed Mr. Bumble;''who has dared to--?
730he said, hastily concealing the key in his breast;''who''s that?
730interposed Mr. Mann,''I suppose you''re going to say that you DO want for something, now?
730laughed Master Bates,''what a lark that would be, would n''t it, Fagin?
730murmured Nancy in a gentle voice;''Nolly?''
730muttered the Jew: changing countenance;''only two of''em?
730replied Fagin angrily;''what are you blubbering for?''
730said Monks significantly, and with a look of eager inquiry;''there may be money''s worth to get, eh?''
730said Mr. Fang, throwing the paper on one side,''what''s this fellow charged with?''
730said Noah:''Oliver, sir,--Oliver has--''''What?
730said a smartly- dressed female, looking out from a door behind her,''who do you want here?''
730said the Jew, taking up a jagged and knotted club which law in a corner of the fireplace;''eh?''
730said the hump- backed man, who had watched him keenly,''what do you mean by coming into my house, in this violent way?
730said the undertaker, glancing over it with a lively countenance;''an order for a coffin, eh?''
730said the undertaker; looking up from the book, and pausing in the middle of a word;''is that you, Bumble?''
730says the ungrateful villain,"what''s the use of_ this_ to me?
730she added, disengaging her hand,''why should we prolong this painful interview?
730that''s the boy, is it?''
730the other man seemed to answer;''could I mistake him, think you?
730then it''s a panel, eh?''
730what is to be done?''
730what''s this?
730whispered the young man;''why did you not write before?''
730why did they send for these people?''
730would n''t you like to be a book- writer?''
730you know me, do you?''
730you really expect him to come back, do you?''
730you''ve thought better of it, have you?''
