31133 | Can that be called a quarrel, piteously asks the man in''Juvenal,''where my enemy only beats and I am beaten? |
31133 | Can the purple and burning flames of genius ever float over the immaculate azure of a woman''s destiny?" |
31133 | Can we wonder that the students who crowded his lecture- room after he became a professor thought every other lecturer commonplace and dull? |
31133 | Can we wonder that those who crowded the table where he sat, lingered on till the daylight drove them from the board? |
31133 | Can you conceive my resentment, my wretchedness? |
31133 | Did the dread of assassination hover over her? |
31133 | Did you ever think of killing any one? |
31133 | Do boys persecute literary men with requests for a course of reading? |
31133 | Do people there write for autographs to those who have gained a little notoriety? |
31133 | Do we not all know the"Treadmill Song,"also, in practical life? |
31133 | Do we not all know"these crusaders sent from some infernal clime"? |
31133 | Do women there send letters asking for money? |
31133 | Do you know where you are?'' |
31133 | Do you see that? |
31133 | Dr. Holmes, too, has had his battle with the music- grinders, as who has not? |
31133 | Had she clung to her original determination not to marry him, would it have been better? |
31133 | Has not the force of genius its own exclusive and legitimate exactions, and does not the force of woman consist in the abdication of all exactions? |
31133 | Have I forgot, my only love, to love thee, Severed at last by Time''s all- severing wave? |
31133 | Have the boys outgrown"Ivanhoe"too? |
31133 | Have we not in this the key to all the sorrows of his domestic life? |
31133 | Have"Marmion,"and"The Lady of the Lake,"and the immortal"Lay"been superseded by the trivialities and inanities of modern poetasters? |
31133 | He saw everything in one light, she in another; what but disappointment and unrest could ensue? |
31133 | He says:--"Why did he not marry her at once? |
31133 | He writes thus to a friend in extreme old age:--"Is there a penny- post, do you think, in the world to come? |
31133 | Her eyes are not brilliant; has their fire gone out under frequent tears, or only in her writings? |
31133 | His brow is singular in shape, but not particularly large or prominent; where has nature expressed his majestic intellect? |
31133 | His head is small; how can it carry all he knows? |
31133 | How could I tread my hall again with such a diminished crest? |
31133 | How live a poor, indebted man, where I was once the wealthy, the honored? |
31133 | If a lovely wind- flower, fresh and fragrant as the breath of morning, was crushed in the arms of this god of thunder, what shall we say? |
31133 | If it seemed as bad as this to him, what did it seem to her, delicately reared and hating the disagreeables of life? |
31133 | If one or two of us at the present day open our eyes to a new light, is it not by a strange and unaccountable good Providence? |
31133 | Into what abysses shall we go and plunge ourselves, we three? |
31133 | Is any one dead?" |
31133 | Is it not sad to think of this?''" |
31133 | Is not the opinion of such men as these to be considered of weight in this matter? |
31133 | Is not this an accurate picture of what a poet''s childhood should be? |
31133 | Is there not in it a hint to the unsuccessful preachers of our time? |
31133 | It now beckons to me from one of my shelves, asking always,''When wilt thou have a cheerful, vacant day?''" |
31133 | On another occasion Sir David Dundas asked:--"''Macaulay, do you know your Popes?'' |
31133 | Shall we ever cease loving Mr. Jarndyce, even when the wind is in the east? |
31133 | Shall we ever weary of gentle Tom Pinch? |
31133 | Shall we not always touch our hats to Joe Gargery? |
31133 | Show us the path of Bernica, or the Lake of Sténio, or the glaciers of Jacques''?" |
31133 | Still can we ask of the English people:--"Do you hear the children weeping, O my brothers, Ere the sorrow comes with years? |
31133 | Thackeray wrote after Macaulay''s death:--"Now that wonderful tongue is to speak no more, will not many a man grieve that he no longer can listen? |
31133 | The common, impious, vulgar of this earth-- what has it to do with my life or me? |
31133 | The same friend writes:--"''What do you think of suicide?'' |
31133 | To another correspondent he writes:--"How is it in the world to come? |
31133 | To the day of Miss Bronté''s death, she would blaze with indignation at any mention of this school; and who can wonder? |
31133 | Was she the only one who found him"ill to live with"? |
31133 | Was this also true of Mrs. Dickens? |
31133 | What could be better for the youth of our land than such a pastime as this for their vacations? |
31133 | What do school boys and girls declaim now, we wonder, equal to the selections from Scott, which formed the greatest part of our stock in trade? |
31133 | What do you think she said aloud? |
31133 | What doth weigh on thee so sore? |
31133 | What hath thus from me estranged thee, That I know thee now no more? |
31133 | What have you gained by these unequal struggles, by these much- trumpeted duels of yours with Custom and Belief? |
31133 | What is the great literary guild anywhere but a mutual admiration society? |
31133 | What might he not have done in those earlier years could he have gone fresh and untired to his musings and his dreams? |
31133 | What was its foundation, what its outcome? |
31133 | What was poverty and obscurity and isolation unto these two souls, so complete in each other that nothing else was desired? |
31133 | What would years and cares and the commonplace of existence have done for such a love as this, we wonder? |
31133 | When the new spirit came, They asked him, drawing near,''Art thou become like us?'' |
31133 | Whence then came the unhappiness,--an unhappiness which, we think, has in some places been greatly exaggerated? |
31133 | Who can she be?" |
31133 | Who cares for the books of the year? |
31133 | Who that felt a love for the writer and the man could fail to rejoice that the end was quick and painless? |
31133 | Will little Nell''s friend, the old schoolmaster, ever cease to draw tears from our eyes? |
31133 | Would her nature have still asserted itself under the cap of the sister? |
31133 | Would the prayers and litanies, the penances and the fasts, have tamed her wild blood? |
31133 | Would we have this so? |
31133 | and are we not intensely weary of it sometimes? |
31133 | and have we not all felt with him the relief when"silence like a poultice comes to heal the blows of sound"? |
31133 | and that? |
31133 | how could''st thou come to this? |
31133 | of murdering your mother? |
31133 | or do the good old lines still hold their own? |
31133 | or setting rick- yards on fire?'' |
31133 | or that no man who had had him for a boon companion could ever be satisfied with another? |
31133 | was not this man a fit guest for any palace in the world, or a fit companion for any man or woman in it? |
31133 | who will have the patience to hear them? |
31133 | would she have led a revolt against authority within the church as she did without? |
41164 | A fine, handsome young fellow, was he not? |
41164 | And never heard of a statue or a monument to Mrs. Tighe, the poetess? |
41164 | And, pray, what family might he leave? |
41164 | Barbarous? |
41164 | But your potatoes, my friend? |
41164 | But, pray, what has become of this Mr. Shelley, then? |
41164 | Can you explain to me,I asked,"what it is that makes Burns such a favorite with you all in Scotland? |
41164 | Did ever muse''s hand so fair A glory round thy temple spread? 41164 Do you choose to deny that this is your composition?" |
41164 | How did you like the country? |
41164 | How long had he been there? |
41164 | How shall I know it? |
41164 | I was heartily tired, and posted to---- Park(_ q._ Bushy? 41164 If I''m designed yon lordling''s slave, By nature''s law designed, Why was an independent wish E''er planted in my mind? |
41164 | My friend,said I,"I fear you have had more than your share of hardship in this life?" |
41164 | Since''tis my doom, Love''s undershrieve, Why this reprieve? 41164 Was there no statue?" |
41164 | What is that? |
41164 | What needs my Shakspeare for his honor''d bones, The labor of an age in piled stones? 41164 What though, like commoners of air, We wander out we know not where, But either house or hall? |
41164 | Where couldst thou fix on mortal ground, Thy tender thoughts and high? 41164 Who is that who addresses you so familiarly?" |
41164 | Who was he? |
41164 | Why should I stay? 41164 Why?" |
41164 | Yet it could not be love, for I knew not the name-- What passion can dwell in the heart of a child? 41164 [ 3] Seven years have gone over since this was written, and what has been the effect? |
41164 | ''Have you, sir?'' |
41164 | ''What barley? |
41164 | ''Why,''returned the executioner,''you little rascal, what is that to you?'' |
41164 | 1598:''Occhi, stelle mortali, Ministre de miei mali-- Se chiusi m''uccidete, Aperti che farete?'' |
41164 | Among beneficed loungers, noli- episcoparian bishops, rakish old gentlemen, and more startling young ones, who are old in the folly of_ knowingness_? |
41164 | Among fox- hunters and their chaplains? |
41164 | Among licensed contradictions of all sorts? |
41164 | Among the Christian''s doctrines, and the worldly practices? |
41164 | And every man and woman, every trade- traveler and servant- maid says,"Where?" |
41164 | And is this all? |
41164 | And ladies from his own country, that is to say, the basket- women, suddenly began to interrogate him;''Now, I say, Pat, where have you been drinking? |
41164 | And of what were they impostors? |
41164 | And what did all these great friends do for him? |
41164 | And why should it? |
41164 | And yet, where are the homes and haunts of Shakspeare in London? |
41164 | And, indeed, how much longer? |
41164 | Are habits of indulging vanity, and of amusing one''s self with the affections and the happiness of others, to be thus coolly talked of? |
41164 | Are our nobility grown less literary, or our authors less aristocratic? |
41164 | Are these nothing? |
41164 | Between the still labors of a divine imagination, and the uproarious riot of a public feed when half- seas over? |
41164 | But are you sure you are fit for a school? |
41164 | But every thing that Milton promised he performed: who performed so much? |
41164 | But from the moment that he sets foot in London, what is there in all biography so heart- breaking to contemplate? |
41164 | But how does this at all remove the statements of Burleigh''s dislike of Spenser and reluctance to his promotion? |
41164 | But if this honor be not needed, what needs there for our Shakspeare, the still weaker witness of his name, of guzzling and gormandizing? |
41164 | But of what avail was all this renown? |
41164 | But what was the stern reality? |
41164 | But where were these? |
41164 | But, surely, he did not do such a thing?" |
41164 | Can a critic even read the passage without some compunction? |
41164 | Can this be the lady who had formerly held captive in her chains the gallant Earl of Chesterfield?" |
41164 | Can you lie three in a bed?" |
41164 | Christ left a glorious example to all time-- why is the Christian world blind to it? |
41164 | Could any suspicion of such a boy''s forgery of the document at first be entertained? |
41164 | Could he feel that he was a poet, and fit society for the wealthy, the refined, and the learned, and that he was not degraded? |
41164 | Could your dry and thirsting spirits receive nothing but this dry and musty fodder of sectarian disquisition? |
41164 | Did ever life''s ambrosial air Such perfume o''er thine altars shed?" |
41164 | Did it never reach Marlowe-- but thirty miles from London-- that sad story of his death, which created a sensation throughout the civilized world?" |
41164 | Did not Chatterton write equally Sly Dick and the tragedy of Ella? |
41164 | Did not John Gilpin and the loftiest strains of pious poetry proceed from that of Cowper? |
41164 | Did not the puns of Hood, and the sober ballad of Eugene Aram, and the Song of the Shirt, proceed from one and the same mind? |
41164 | Did the critics not protest that they were_ their own_? |
41164 | Do you know what a trick was played him by some wag?" |
41164 | Echo may answer-- where? |
41164 | Enow of such as for their bellies''sake Creep, and intrude, and climb into the fold? |
41164 | For that silence, and the thoughts that live in it, who would not have lived, and suffered, and been despised? |
41164 | Has he not honored himself sufficiently? |
41164 | Have you been bred apprentice to the business?" |
41164 | Have you got a good stomach?" |
41164 | Have you had the small- pox?" |
41164 | He declared a glorious doctrine on the treatment of unbelievers-- why is the world deaf to it? |
41164 | He had continually in his heart that cry which haunted Cowley:"What shall I do to be forever known?" |
41164 | He had had to work hard, but what poor man had not? |
41164 | He quickly mustered his laddish troop in a row, and said to me,''There now, sir, can you tell which is a Shakspeare?'' |
41164 | He was at one time at the Lakes on a pilgrimage to Southey, which, when Coleridge heard of, he said,"Why did he not come to me? |
41164 | How could a man with lands and a castle be in such necessity? |
41164 | How could they? |
41164 | How does it vindicate him from any such charge? |
41164 | I hear honest utilitarians asking, why? |
41164 | If houses are built, most likely cellars were dug to those houses; and then the bones of Chatterton-- where are they? |
41164 | If not, why am I subject to His cruelty and scorn? |
41164 | If thus, when shut, ye wound me, what must have proved the consequence had ye been open?" |
41164 | In Henry the Fifth, Shakspeare alludes to its shape and material:"Can this cockpit hold The vasty fields of France? |
41164 | In a word, your house is falling; but what of that? |
41164 | In short, among all those professed demands of what is right and noble, mixed with real inculcations of what is wrong and full of hypocrisy? |
41164 | Is it grateful to those who are the pride and boast of their country? |
41164 | Is not this vexatious? |
41164 | Is there any the remotest connection between the achievements of pure intellect and seven- gallon barrel stomachs of anniversary topers? |
41164 | Is this just to these individuals? |
41164 | It has been said, how could this be? |
41164 | It is a pity this should not be true, yet how can it? |
41164 | Long filléd with the miseries of need, Where from the hailstone could the almer[16] fly? |
41164 | Need we ask why his mother bound him to such a man? |
41164 | No answer was given; but the master loudly and angrily repeated,"Are you the author of this book?" |
41164 | Of what were they thieves? |
41164 | Oh for what sorrow must I now exchange you? |
41164 | Oh, who so well could sing Love''s joys and pains? |
41164 | Or may we cram Within this_ wooden_ O the very casques That did affright the air at Agincourt?" |
41164 | Or that his hallowed reliques should be hid Under a star- ypointing pyramid? |
41164 | Or why has man the will and power To make his fellow mourn? |
41164 | Shall the heroes of the pen, those far nobler and diviner heroes, be treated with a penniless contempt? |
41164 | Shall the heroes of the sword alone be rewarded? |
41164 | Shelley?" |
41164 | Silence ensued for a full hour, after which Lintot stopped short, and broke out,"Well, sir, how far have you gone?" |
41164 | Somewhere, and some time before, he had most likely seen this Mary Powell-- where, and how long before, who shall now say? |
41164 | Spite of great names, is that a literary tribunal from which much good was to be hoped? |
41164 | Such was the treatment which all ladies who manifested an attachment to Swift received at his hands; is it any wonder that such a man went mad? |
41164 | The parlor splendors? |
41164 | Then why, my soul, dost thou complain? |
41164 | Titles, carriages, gay garments, great houses, what are they but the things which_ the man_ had gathered about him for his pride or his comfort? |
41164 | To sell thyself dost thou intend By candle''s end; And hold the contract thus in doubt, Life''s taper out? |
41164 | To whom_ can_ the poor bind their children? |
41164 | Was there no picture of Mrs. Tighe, the poetess, that I might be allowed to see?" |
41164 | Were not the poems_ real_? |
41164 | Were not the treasures which they came dragging into the literary bank of England genuine treasures? |
41164 | Were they not genuine, and of the true Titanic stamp? |
41164 | What acuteness of genius is like the acuteness of a sharp experience, after all? |
41164 | What are all the works of Johnson-- and we are inclined to give them their fullest due-- when compared with those of Milton, and their consequences? |
41164 | What are the reasons assigned by the biographer for doubting the story? |
41164 | What are you?" |
41164 | What became of them and their claim on the property? |
41164 | What cares he, in his seventh heaven of glory and of poetry, for their guzzlings? |
41164 | What do you call very good? |
41164 | What have they to do with him or his honor? |
41164 | What have you had?'' |
41164 | What if you amused yourself in turning an ode till we mount again? |
41164 | What is it? |
41164 | What means,"To have thy prince''s grace, yet want his peeres''?" |
41164 | What need they? |
41164 | What need''st thou such weak witness of thy name? |
41164 | What recks it them? |
41164 | What says John Milton, another glorious son of the Muse? |
41164 | What those lines at the close of the sixth book of the Faërie Queene? |
41164 | What was won by it, except the empty glory itself? |
41164 | What, then, was their strange crime? |
41164 | When was the property of Kilcolman lost to the poet''s descendants? |
41164 | Where are the censorious zealots who can show like deeds? |
41164 | Where does he find the nut- brown ale? |
41164 | Where is the man in ten millions that, with such errors on one side of the account, can place the same talents and virtues on the other? |
41164 | Who can say, after this, that glass is frail, when it is not half so perishable as human beauty or glory? |
41164 | Who in future days will not pray that he might have been as one of these? |
41164 | Who in the public breach devoted stood, And for his country''s cause been prodigal of blood? |
41164 | Who shall say that because Chaucer casually mentions only one son, that he might not have half a dozen? |
41164 | Who shall say that with a nature equally igneous and combustible, his delinquencies would not be far greater? |
41164 | Who shall say what misfortunes may have visited his old age? |
41164 | Who then had scorned his care for others''good? |
41164 | Who then had toiled rapacious men to tame? |
41164 | Who would now willingly wade through pages of such doggerel as this? |
41164 | Why doth she my advowson fly, Incumbency? |
41164 | Why should that house-- just that house and its family, be destined to produce great Quakers, ending in great walkers and great brewers? |
41164 | Why, drooping, seek the dark recess? |
41164 | Will our very philosophical utilitarian tell us why this should be? |
41164 | With what feelings is truth to open its eyes upon this world, among the most respectable of our mere party gentry? |
41164 | Would any feelings but those of wonder and curiosity be excited? |
41164 | _ 1st Man._"But Coila is well drawn, is not she? |
41164 | _ 3d Man._"Why, where is the button?" |

41164 | and if they were found not to have, indeed, dug them out of the rubbish of the ruined temple of antiquity, were they not_ their own_? |
41164 | and marched away without helping him-- did not these proceed from the same mind? |
41164 | and the swilling of mere herds of literary swine? |
41164 | and who shall again repeat the stale sophism that unkind criticism never extinguished genuine poetry? |
41164 | are you there? |
41164 | but,"said Goldsmith,"how many of these would reach to the moon?" |
41164 | can you then thus waste in shameful wise Your few important days of trial here? |
41164 | did you never hear? |
41164 | does Mr. Tighe think I am come all the way from England to see his grounds, when ten thousand country squires could show much finer? |
41164 | exclaimed the bishop,''is that the hawthorn bush? |
41164 | he did no bad actions that I ever heard of, but, on the contrary, he was uncommonly good to the poor; but then--""But then, what?" |
41164 | his Civil Power in Ecclesiastical Cases? |
41164 | his State Letters, written at the command of Cromwell and the Parliament? |
41164 | his Tenure of Kings and Magistrates? |
41164 | his Treatise on the Means of Removing Hirelings out of the Church? |
41164 | his_ Defensio Populi_? |
41164 | his_ Defensio Secunda_? |
41164 | his_ Eiconoclastes_? |
41164 | inquired the astonished Irishman; and his ragged friends instantly pressed round him with,''Where is the hamper, Paddy?'' |
41164 | said I,"are you not the squire here? |
41164 | was that all?" |
41164 | what bad actions did he do?" |
41164 | why should he not have been able to go there as the honest British farmer, and not as the exciseman? |
45887 | ''Think you, mid all this mighty sum Of things forever speaking, That nothing of itself will come, But we must still be seeking? 45887 ''Where are your books? |
45887 | A great man, did he say? 45887 A poet?" |
45887 | And, indeed,asked he, very gravely,"what may be your object in making this inquiry?" |
45887 | As if but yesterday departed, Thou, too, art gone before; yet why For ripe fruit, seasonably gathered, Should frail survivors heave a sigh? 45887 Ay, but what farmhouse, that''s the thing? |
45887 | But you know what a ballad singer is? |
45887 | Can I but relive in sadness? 45887 Can there be any doubt,"we asked,"that Scott is the author of Waverley?" |
45887 | Clara, Clara Vere de Vere, If time be heavy on your hands, Are there no beggars at your gate, Nor any poor about your lands? 45887 Could he tell us of any other part of the city where Campbell had lived?" |
45887 | Could it possibly be any body else? |
45887 | D''ye think so? |
45887 | Did she seem quite well here? |
45887 | Did you see that? |
45887 | Do n''t you know what a poet is? |
45887 | Do you know what that is? |
45887 | Do you think,said the general,"you can run a Frenchman through the body?" |
45887 | Have those horrible reports,she eagerly inquired,"got into the papers, Miss Roberts?" |
45887 | How do you like it? 45887 In what house?" |
45887 | Is that a linden? 45887 Is that an inn?" |
45887 | Lives there a reptile baser than the slave? 45887 Oh, I have been puzzling my brain to invent a new sleeve; pray how do you like it?" |
45887 | Shall men for whom our age Unbaffled powers of vision hath prepared, To explore the world without, and world within, Be joyless as the blind? 45887 Silas, was n''t he a Cornish man? |
45887 | Spirit all- limitless, Where is thy dwelling- place? 45887 Well, but has not Mr. Wordsworth written against the railroads?" |
45887 | Well, what did the man say? |
45887 | What are your Sir Robert Peels, your Grahams, and your Stanleys good for, if they can not stop the steam? |
45887 | What could the bonny girl mean by being so urgent that I should take some of her whisky? |
45887 | What do you come here for? |
45887 | What, then, have you been doing with yourself this last month? |
45887 | Who could forgive this? 45887 Who in the world could ever cut down a linden, or dare, in his senses, to break a twig off one? |
45887 | Who is it?--Did he give his name? |
45887 | Who is that? 45887 Why art thou so far from me, O my Lord? |
45887 | Why should he not? |
45887 | Why, who is that? |
