4925Shall I trust Aeneas to the chances of the weather and the winds?"
4925Shall OEneus rejoice in his victor son, while the house of Thestius is desolate?

4925Skirnir having reported the success of his errand, Frey exclaimed:"Long is one night, Long are two nights, But how shall I hold out three?

4925Suppose I should lend you the chariot, what would you do?
4925The Sphinx asked him,"What animal is that which in the morning gees on four feet, at noon on two, and in the evening upon three?"
4925The Trojans heard with joy and immediately began to ask one another,"Where is the spot intended by the oracle?"
4925The parents consent( how could they hesitate?)
4925The voice said,''Why do you fly, Arethusa?
4925They can not in the course of nature live much longer, and who can feel like them the call to rescue the life they gave from an untimely end?"
4925Thinks he by flight to escape us?
4925This is alluded to by Byron, where, addressing the modern Greeks, he says:"You have the letters Cadmus gave, Think you he meant them for a slave?"
4925To which question the river- god replied as follows:"Who likes to tell of his defeats?
4925What could Jupiter do?
4925What has become of them?"
4925What have I done that you should treat me so?
4925What have the cranes to do with him?"
4925What is this fighting about?
4925What shall he do?
4925What shall he do?--go home to seek the palace, or lie hid in the woods?
4925What should he do?
4925Where are you going to carry me?''
4925Where could we go to escape from Periander, if he should know that you had been robbed by us?
4925Where is that love of me that used to be uppermost in your thoughts?
4925While they hesitate, Laocoon, the priest of Neptune exclaims,"What madness, citizens, is this?
4925Who brought me here?
4925Who lived when thou wast such?
4925Why do you hang round my neck and still entreat me?
4925Why should Latona be honored with worship, and none be paid to me?
4925Why should any one hereafter tremble at the thought of offending Juno, when such rewards are the consequence of my displeasure?
4925Why should he alone escape?
4925Why will you not take a lesson from the tree and the vine, and consent to unite yourself with some one?
4925Will any one deny this?
4925Will you kill your father?"
4925Will you prefer to me this Latona, the Titan''s daughter, with her two children?
4925Would you rather have me away?"
4925Yet can ye relieve my grief?
4925Yet where is your triumph?
4925could not verse immortal save That breast imbued with such immortal fire?
4925did he say?"
4925haughty their array, Yet of their number no one dares to die?"
4925have you any wish ungratified?
4925he said;"have you any doubt of my love?
4925said Aeneas,"is it possible that any can be so in love with life as to wish to leave these tranquil seats for the upper world?"
4925she cried;"whither do you fly?
4925the cause?
4925through a marble wilderness?
4925to what deed am I borne along?
4925to whose immortal eyes The sufferings of mortality, Seen in their sad reality, Were not as things that gods despise; What was thy pity''s recompense?
4925was then the rumor true that you had perished?
3327But,she added,"thou hast not death''s hue on thee; why then ridest thou here on the way to Hel?"
3327Can it be possible that any will be so rash as to risk so much for a wife?

3327Hapless youth,he said,"what can I do for you worthy of your praise?

3327Have you heard anything of Arion?
3327Have you the head of Medusa?
3327Is it thus I find you restored to me?
3327Most undutiful and faithless of servants,said she,"do you at last remember that you really have a mistress?
3327O ruler of the gods, if I have deserved this treatment, and it is your will that I perish with fire, why withhold your thunderbolts? 3327 Oh, Pyramus,"she cried,"what has done this?
3327Shall such wickedness triumph?
3327Then Bacchus, for it was indeed he, as if shaking off his drowsiness, exclaimed,''What are you doing with me? 3327 Thine oracle, in vain to be, Oh, wherefore am I thus consigned, With eyes that every truth must see, Lone in the city of the blind?
3327Ungrateful man,she exclaimed,"is it thus you leave me?
3327What fault of mine, dearest husband, has turned your affection from me? 3327 What god can tempt one so young and handsome to throw himself away?
3327What heart had I left me, during all this, or what ought I to have had, except to hate life and wish to be with my dead subjects? 3327 What herb has such a power?"
3327What new trial hast thou to propose?
3327What,exclaimed the woman,"have all things sworn to spare Baldur?"
3327Whence came these stories? 3327 Who would not have been moved with these gentle words of the goddess?
3327Why should you wish to behold me?
3327Will nothing satisfy you but my life?
3327''What will love not discover?
3327''Why do you refuse me water?''
3327AEneas, horror- struck, inquired of his guide what crimes were those whose punishments produced the sounds he hear?
3327AEneas, wondering at the sight, asked the Sibyl,"Why this discrimination?
3327After having disobeyed my mother''s commands and made you my wife, will you think me a monster and cut off my head?
3327Alcinous says to Ulysses,"Say from what city, from what regions tossed, And what inhabitants those regions boast?
3327And can any other woman dare more than I?
3327And is Lorenzo''s salamander- heart Cold and untouched amid these sacred fires?"
3327And shall I let you go into such danger alone?
3327And what cowardice makes thee sink under this last danger, who hast been so miraculously supported in all thy former?"
3327Are there any birds perched on this tree?
3327Art thou awake, Thor?

3327But Psyche said,"Why, my dear parents, do you now lament me?
3327But a voice from the tower said to her,"Why, poor unlucky girl, dost thou design to put an end to thy days in so dreadful a manner?
3327But how to send Atlas away from his post, or bear up the heavens while he was gone?
3327But how?
3327But if I am unworthy of regard, what has my brother Ocean done to deserve such a fate?
3327But shall he then live, and triumph, and reign over Calydon, while you, my brothers, wander unavenged among the shades?
3327But what has become of my glove?"
3327But what if I offer him to yield up Helen and all her treasures and ample of our own beside?

3327But what was to attack this terrible and unapproachable monster?
3327But who can withstand Jupiter?
3327But why ask the gods to do it?
3327Could you keep your course while the sphere was revolving under you?
3327Cupid, beholding her as she lay in the dust, stopped his flight for an instant and said,"O foolish Psyche, is it thus you repay my love?
3327Did he fall by the hands of robbers, or did some private enemy slay him?
3327Do you ask me for proof that you are sprung from my blood?
3327Do you ask why?"
3327Do you not see that even in heaven some despise our power?
3327Dying now a second time she yet can not reproach her husband, for how can she blame his impatience to behold her?
3327Euryalus, all on fire with the love of adventure, replied,"Would you then, Nisus, refuse to share your enterprise with me?
3327For how could Achilles require the aid of celestial armor if he were invulnerable?)
3327Go home to seek the palace, or lie hid in the woods?
3327Had he lost there a father or brother, or any dear friend?
3327Has earth no more Such seeds within her breast, or Europe no such shore?"
3327Hast thou perchance seen him pass this way?"
3327Have I not cause for pride?
3327Have they a foundation in truth, or are they simply dreams of the imagination?"
3327Have you any wish ungratified?
3327Have you learned to feel easy in the absence of Halcyone?
3327Have you not learned enough of Grecian fraud to be on your guard against it?

3327How could Hercules take his place?
3327How extricate the youth?
3327How fares it with thee, Thor?"
3327How wilt thou now the fatal sisters move?
3327I only wished I might have died With my poor father; wherefore should I ask For longer life?
3327I think we shall be conquered; and if that must be the end of it, why should not love unbar the gates to him, instead of leaving it to be done by war?
3327Is it for this that I have supplied herbage for cattle, and fruits for men, and frankincense for your altars?
3327Is this the reward of my fertility, of my obedient service?

3327Men asked,"Why does not one of his parents do it?
3327Nisus said to his friend,"Do you perceive what confidence and carelessness the enemy display?
3327Oh, spare me one of so many?!"
3327One day the youth, being separated from his companions, shouted aloud,"Who''s here?"
3327Or have you rather come to see your sick husband, yet suffering from the wound given him by his loving wife?
3327Or would it be better to die with him?
3327Sadly needing help, how could he yet venture, naked as he was, to discover himself and make his wants known?
3327Shaking her ambrosial locks with indignation, she exclaimed,"Am I then to be eclipsed in my honors by a mortal girl?
3327Shall I trust AEneas to the chances of the weather and winds?"
3327Shall OEneus rejoice in his victor son, while the house of Thestius( Thestius was father of Toxeus, Phlexippus and Althea) is desolate?

3327To which question the river- god replied as follows:"Who likes to tell of his defeats?
3327To whose immortal eyes The sufferings of mortality, Seen in their sad reality, Were not as things that gods despise, What was thy pity''s recompense?
3327Was then the rumor true that you had perished?
3327What advantage to disclose it now?
3327What could Jupiter do?
3327What has become of them?"

3327Where could we go to escape from Periander, if he should know that you had been robbed by us?
3327Where is that love of me that used to be uppermost in your thoughts?

3327Why should Latona be honored with worship rather than I?

3327Why will you not take a lesson from the tree and the vine, and consent to unite yourself with some one?
3327Will any one deny this?
3327Will you kill your father?
3327Will you prefer to me this Latona, the Titan''s daughter, with her two children?
3327Woe; great Jove have pity, Listen to my sad entreaty, Yet for what can Hero pray?
3327Would you rather have me away?"
3327Yet can ye relieve my grief?
3327Yet where is your triumph?
3327did he say?"
3327said AEneas,"is it possible that any can be so in love with life, as to wish to leave these tranquil seats for the upper world?"
3327she cried;"whither do you fly?
14576& c. Or we find, What is the gold spun from one window to another?
14576''Any trick?''
14576''Are the God and his myth original or imported?
14576''Has the myth of Cronos the same sense?''
14576''Have we not,''he asks,''arrived both at the same conclusion?''
14576''We are told''--where, and by whom?
14576''We can but say"it may be so,"''but who could explain all the complex Perseus- saga as a statement about elemental phenomena?
14576''What century will it be when there will be scholars who know the dialects of the Australian blacks as well as we know the dialects of Greece?''
14576''Why should not all the gods of Egypt with their heads of bulls and apes and cats be survivals of totemisms?''

14576A selection of such explanations I offer in tabular form:-- Cronos was God of Time(?)
14576A similar dubious adhesion may be given by us in the case of Castor and Polydeuces( Morning and Evening Stars?
14576Am I wrong?
14576And have the lessons taught to De Brosses by his witty contemporaries been quite forgotten?
14576And if[ Greek], why not clad in bear- skins, and all the rest?
14576And what in the name of Eleusis have dialects to do with the circumstance that savages, like Greeks, use Rhombi in their mysteries?
14576And who denies it?
14576And why had he done that?
14576And, if they do n''t, how do we know that kobongs and pacarissas were developed out of sign- boards?
14576Apollo_ may_ once have been the sun, but why did he make love as a dog?
14576Are these theftuous birds and beasts to be explained as Fire- gods?
14576Aryan Totems(?)
14576As to the Holy Cross qua fetish, why discuss such free- thinking credulities?
14576But how did this mental condition, this early sort of false metaphysics, come into existence?
14576But how does the unscientific conduct attributed to De Brosses implicate the modern anthropologist?
14576But how does this explain the problem?
14576But if the savages tell us about totems, are they not then''casual native informants''?
14576But need that somebody have been originally the sun, as Mr. Max Muller and Dr. Tylor think in the cases of Yama and Maui?
14576But still, why Tuna?
14576But surely his name, even so, might have been carried to the Greeks?
14576But the question I tried to answer was,''Why did the Greeks, of all people, tell such a disgusting story?''
14576But what was the origin of sign- boards?
14576But where, all this time, is there a reference by Mannhardt to''the general principles of comparative philology''?
14576But why was the story told, and why of Tuna?
14576But why, on this score, should a man be afraid to make love to a woman of the same nagual?
14576But_ whence come the names of eponymous heroes_?
14576But_ why_ conceived as''masculine or feminine''?
14576Can we explain an American institution, a fairly world- wide institution, totemism, by the local peculiarities of belief in isolated Australia?
14576Could a classical scholar do more?
14576Death said to the gods,''What hath become of him who created us?''
14576Did I, then, tell anybody that''originally the she- bear was the goddess''?
14576Did a kind of linguistic measles affect all tongues alike, from Sanskrit to Choctaw, and everywhere produce the same ugly scars in religion and myth?
14576Did anybody doubt that the Greeks, nay even the Hindus, were uncivilised or savages, before they became civilised or tamed?
14576Did anybody?
14576Did not this idea reach the Mincopie mind from the same quarter as the stone house, especially as Puluga''s wife is''a green shrimp or an eel''?
14576Did they really appear?
14576Do these other scholars criticise your equations not''seriously''?
14576Do they apply to these as strictly as to ordinary words?
14576Do we make it?
14576Do_ we_ not try to find out, and really succeed sometimes in finding out,_ why_ a savage cherishes this or that scrap as a''fetish''?
14576Does Mr. Frazer think so?
14576Does Mr. Max Muller, so strict about evidence, boggle at the stone house, the only son, the shrimp?
14576Does Professor Tiele now grasp my meaning( saisir)?
14576Does he know why?
14576Does he point out that one anthropologist has asked for caution in weighing what the Mincopies told Mr. Man?
14576For Us or Against Us?
14576Granting Chkai to be the sun, does that explain why he punishes people who bake bread on Friday?
14576Had Mannhardt quite cashiered''the corn- spirit,''who, perhaps, had previously threatened to''become everything''?
14576Has not even Plato done this?
14576Have I incurred Dr. Codrington''s feud?
14576Have Red Indian_ women_ any naguals?
14576Have the objections ceased?
14576He says:''In ancient languages every one of these words''( sky, earth, sea, rain)''had necessarily''( why necessarily?)
14576He tells the unseemly tale, and asks why the Earth goddess became a mare?
14576How can comparisons be demonstrated before they are made?
14576How could it be otherwise?''
14576How could the moon love an eel, except on my own general principle of savage''levelling up''of all life in all nature?
14576How could the sun catch the sun in a snare, and beat him so as to make him lame?
14576How did it come?
14576How is this, may I ask, to account for the story of Daphne?
14576How will you explain these hauts faits de l''extase religieuse?
14576How, asks Mr. Lefebure, did men come to attribute this vis vivida to persons and things?
14576How, then, does the explanation of a hypothetical Dawn- myth apply to the Earth?
14576I ask Professor Tiele,''Do you, sir, create light when you open your window- shutters in the morning?
14576If evidence can not be trusted about a living and distinguished British subject, how can it be accepted about hallucinations?
14576In what questions did I not expect to find reason?
14576Is Athene from a Zend root( Benfey), a Greek root( Curtius), or to be interpreted by Sanskrit Ahana( Max Muller)?
14576Is Loki a corn- spirit?
14576Is Samoa in Melanesia, par exemple?
14576May we not decide on the_ logic_ of scholars?
14576Mr. Max Muller thinks that he is right, but, till scholars agree, what can we do but wait?
14576Mr. McLennan would be, I think, rather surprised at this remark; but what would he do?
14576My Crime Now, what important questions was I gliding over?
14576Now, can it be by accident that Saranyu in the Veda is Erinnys in Greek?
14576Now, except that the bird which laughed sings at sunset, what is there''solar''in all this?
14576Or are you ignorant of the names of their works?
14576Or does[ Greek] suggest aqua, Achelous the River?
14576Perhaps, instead of''the Dark One,''a peasant would say,''What is the Rooky One?''
14576Psychical Research But how is the Fire- walk done?
14576Secondly, what does it help us to know that people in Mangaia believed in the change of human beings into trees, if we do not know the reason why?
14576Shall we say that he meant''most myths,''''a good many myths,''''a myth or two here and there''?
14576So far, what is there''solar''about Maui?
14576That I explained the myth of Daphne by the myth of Tuna?
14576The Greek Mouse- totem?
14576The Indians were, we learn, divided into[ local?]
14576The general problem is this: Has language-- especially language in a state of''disease,''been the great source of the mythology of the world?
14576They were Arkades, and why not[ Greek]( bears)?''
14576Thus Geistiblindr asks, What is the Dark One That goes over the earth, Swallows water and wood, But is afraid of the wind?
14576To this''equation,''as we saw, Mannhardt demurred in 1877. Who was Saranyu?
14576Very likely; quis negavit?
14576Was Dr. Codrington_ not_ a missionary?
14576We might answer,''Why tell you what you know very well?''
14576Well, why is the world- wide tale of the Cyclops told about Odysseus?
14576Were the myths, say the myths of Daphne, really solar?
14576What accident?
14576What anthropologist believes such nonsense?
14576What anthropologist of mark accepts as gospel any casual traveller''s tale?
14576What can Mr. Max Muller possibly mean?
14576What is there new in comparing the customs and myths of the Greeks with those of the barbarians?
14576What missionaries?
14576What was_ that_ method?
14576Where does he accept''the omnipresent Sun and the inevitable Dawn''?
14576Who are the''others''who speak of a Greek''culture- hero''by the impossibly fantastic name of''a fire totem''?
14576Who does?
14576Who says that they do?
14576Why Tuna more than Rangoa, or anyone else?''
14576Why not, indeed, if prehistoric Greeks were in touch with India?
14576Why not, indeed?
14576Why should not a Vedic or Sanskrit goddess of India supply the first germs of a Greek goddess?
14576Why should''Attic''and the qualifying phrase be omitted?
14576Why, then, should we not rejoice when we find the allusion in Rig Veda?''
14576Will Mr. Frazer give the Arcadian bear''the benefit of the doubt''?
14576You can not imagine several generations asking each other-- What is the Rooky One that swallows?
14576You would not amuse a rural audience by asking''What is the mist that swallows wood and water?''
14576[ Who has not?]
14576_ How does this help philological mythology_?
14576a totem?''
14576placed by Zeus, her lover, in the sky''as the Bear?
14576why not?''
14576{ 139b} Is this''large term''too vague?
14576{ 195c} How did Prometheus steal fire?
14576{ 27} Allies or Not?
14576{ 29a} And is it my fault that, even in this matter, the Pythonesses utter such strangely discrepant oracles?
14576{ 32b} What is the myth of Cronos?
14576{ 48} After examining the facts we examine the words, and ask,''Why Burley or Burry men?''
14576{ 79} Why not refer, then, to the results of their discriminating efforts?
3623''So you went to Ka- thlu- el- lon, did you?'' 3623 And do tell me,"she said,"are you quite immortal?
3623Can anything be plainer,he might say,"than that I light my twopenny candle on earth and that the sun then kindles his great fire in heaven?
3623For why, say they, should they commit an act of aggression, when he and his kindred can so easily repay them? 3623 Of what was he guilty?
3623Well,says she,"and where is your death?
3623Whither will you send her?
3623--"Whose is she?"
3623?\ it in the grass by the wayside.
3623Again, though the sun may be said to die daily, in what sense can he be said to be torn in pieces?
3623An old woman tended her; and when the girl was grown to maidenhood she asked the old woman,"Where do you go so often?"
3623And are you too great an enchanter ever to feel human suffering?"
3623And how does he think it may be guarded against?
3623And is this the return you make to me?"
3623And she meditated in her heart, saying,"Can not I by virtue of the great name of Ra make myself a goddess and reign like him in heaven and earth?"
3623And the company of gods cried,"What aileth thee?"
3623And who so well fitted to perform the ceremony as the king, the living representative of the sky- god?
3623And why, before doing so, had he to pluck the Golden Bough?
3623Are the other effigies, which are burned in the spring and midsummer bonfires, susceptible of the same explanation?

10095''Did I not tell you so? 10095 ''Hast thou come,''said I,''to solicit me to abet thee in any new imposture?
10095''How knewest thou this, my son?'' 10095 ''How many?''
10095''I would not have taken fifty bezants for that shield, and what good is it now?'' 10095 ''O Abdallah,''I exclaimed,''wherefore this atrocity?''
10095''O Abdallah,''I inquired,''where is thy beard?'' 10095 ''Or helmets?''
10095''Pythagoras, then,''said Euphronius addressing me,''did not resort to India to be instructed by the Gymnosophists?'' 10095 ''Surely,''said he,''thou would''st not take away her husband without giving her another in his stead?''
10095''Think you I can not pass through a stone wall?'' 10095 ''Well,''said Euphronius in a disdainful tone,''and what about this vaunted wisdom of the Indians?''
10095''Whence are these weals and scars?'' 10095 ''Whence this sleekness of body, my son?''
10095A bishop, then,inquired Gaddo,"may be guilty of any enormity sooner than wedlock, which money itself can not expiate?"
10095According to you, then,said Euphronius,"the fates of men are not spun for them by Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos, but by their predecessors?"
10095Am I not the modern Coriolanus? 10095 Am I,"he questioned,"ending where Polyphemus began?"
10095An enemy of Zeus, then?
10095And Liberty?

10095And how are the people taking it?
10095And how did the Bee learn, do you suppose, unless by imbuing her mind with the elementary principles of mathematics? 10095 And now, mistress, what further?
10095And that is?
10095And the citizens are really ready for this?
10095And the gold?
10095And therefore your Holiness has brought these rats upon us, enlisted, I nothing doubt, in the infernal regions?
10095And this palace is?
10095And what becomes of us while this prodigious moonshine is concocting?
10095And what can they want with an amphitheatre?

10095But, Pan, how can any one think thoughts without something to think them with? 10095 By what process are these merits acquired?"
10095By whom?
10095Call you chess an amusement?
10095Can a God feel hunger and thirst?
10095Can the source of his being originate in himself?
10095Can this indeed be but a trance?
10095Can you possibly be plunged into such utter oblivion of your embryonic antecedents?
10095Canst thou balance our city upon an egg?
10095Could n''t we leave him to mind himself? 10095 D''ye think I''m not a thousand times more afraid of your mistress than of all the saints in the calendar?
10095Daniel,said the Lord,"what answerest thou?"
10095Dear friend,said the Princess,"thou dost not imagine that I have part or lot in these odious imputations?

10095Deems your Highness that Bishop Addo will send another cupful, once he is assured of my death?

10095Good monk,said the fiend,"what dost thou here?"
10095Has not my immortality been one of pain?
10095Hast thou never heard of the priest Eubulides?
10095Hast thou sacrificed thy mother and sister to the infernal powers?
10095Hast thou swallowed the ninety- nine poisons?
10095Hast thou undergone the seven probations?
10095Hast thou wedded a Salamander, and divorced her?
10095Heavens,exclaimed Mnesitheus and Rufus,"can the life of a man suffice to study all this?"
10095How a beginning?
10095How can I feel, if I have no feeling? 10095 How can I other?
10095How could I compromise Epimetheus, Prometheus?
10095How else should François Rabelais have affirmed it?
10095How has it all come about?
10095How many gladiators, said you?
10095How shall this be accomplished?
10095How shall we henceforth exchange the sweet tokens of our undying affection, my Otto?
10095How so, father?
10095How so? 10095 How so?
10095How so?
10095I am not happy,rejoined the Firefly;"what am I, after all, but a flying beetle with a candle in my tail?
10095I can have the blood of a goat?
10095Indeed?
10095Is Man, then, the maker of Deity?
10095Is the Lady Adeliza''s loveliness in sooth so transcendent?
10095Is there nought else?
10095Is this indeed sooth?
10095Is this no sorrow to thee?
10095It is true, then?
10095It seems likely to rain,he said,"have you an umbrella?"
10095Look here, what do you call this?
10095May I,inquired Ananda of the fiend he had before addressed,"presume to ask the signification of Kammuragha and Damburanana?"
10095May we not,said one at last,"may we not cast lots, and each take a phial in succession, as destiny may appoint?"
10095Miraculously kept alive to this day?
10095Must we then part?
10095Nay, sister, or sister- in- law,responded Prometheus,"if it comes to that, where were you while I was on Caucasus?
10095Needs it not that I should renounce my baptism? 10095 No?
10095No?
10095Nonnus,said Phoebus, passing noiselessly through the unresisting wall,"the tale of thy apostasy is then true?"
10095Not even in consideration of the benefit which will accrue to thee by this event?
10095Not if I know it,sharply replied Madam Lucifer,"You ca n''t bear to part with her, ca n''t you?
10095Nothing?
10095Now, how go things in the city?
10095O Emperor,he murmured, deeply abashed,"what can I urge?
10095O King,urged Mithridata,"how could this countenance do thy son any good?
10095O Majesty,said his wisest counsellor,"is there any sect in thy dominions that possesses the secret of perpetual youth?"
10095O dear master,remonstrated Porphyry,"thou didst not deem that philosophers could be induced to settle in a spot devoid of these necessaries?
10095Of course,said the student,"Hast thou attestations of all these circumstances under the hands and seals of a thousand and one demons?"
10095Of what nature are these?
10095Oh, father,urged they,"savoureth not this of vaingloriousness?
10095Or I, until I have had speech of the man in the moon?
10095Or in the irregularity of my deportment?
10095People say,she continued--"What say they?"
10095Peradventure,hesitatingly interrogated the youth,"peradventure you are_ he_?"
10095That aged crone thy daughter, daughter to thee so youthful and so fresh? 10095 The conclusion of the whole matter, then,"summed up the sage,"is that not one of you will make a venture for the cup of immortality?"
10095The most notorious character in Rome, who, finding her charms on the wane, has lately betaken herself to philosophy?
10095Then why does the Plato of our age hesitate to welcome his Diotima?
10095Then will not the crops be burned up? 10095 There?
10095This, at least,asked the student,"is not devoid of virtue?"
10095Thou didst bear away the tincture? 10095 Thou didst elude them?
10095Thou didst leave it this morning a heathen?
10095Thou hast discovered that, my son?
10095Thou hast obtained it?
10095Thou returnest a Christian?
10095Thou wert the priestess of this temple?
10095Thy predecessor?
10095To my utility to mankind?
10095To what cause do they attribute the public calamity?
10095To what condition were you pleased to allude?
10095To what then?
10095To whom belongeth it then?
10095To whose service, Phoebus?
10095Tortured, of course?
10095Well,demanded Aboniel at length, with real or assumed surprise,"wherefore tarry ye thus?
10095Well,rejoined the Governor,"what say you to the twenty- second?"
10095Were it not better to circumcise me?
10095What ails thee, child?
10095What caldron?
10095What does the man mean?
10095What else should I speak?
10095What else? 10095 What fear you?"
10095What have ye found so exceedingly reprehensible in the Emperor''s conduct?
10095What have you, Pan?
10095What is that?
10095What is the occasion of thy imprisonment?
10095What is winter?
10095What manner of woman was thy mother?
10095What may these virtues be?
10095What meanest thou?
10095What means all this, Porphyry?
10095What of her?
10095What of quarter- day?
10095What seest thou here?
10095What shall be done with him, mistress?
10095What the guy dickens be a concatrenation, Geoffrey?
10095What trash have we here?
10095What was that, my Lord?
10095What was the impediment?
10095What would you be?
10095What''s o''clock?
10095What''s this? 10095 Whatever will happen next?"
10095Whence comest thou to be ignorant of that?
10095Where dwells Louis the Disesteemed?
10095Where shall I find another great king?
10095Wherefore not to- day?
10095Wherefore?
10095Wherefore?
10095Wherein, then,demanded the agonized apostle,"doth the path of safety lie?"
10095Which be they?
10095Who art thou, thou pantaloonless one?
10095Who art thou?
10095Who art thou?
10095Who but we?
10095Who could have believed it?
10095Who is Homer? 10095 Who is that person?"
10095Who is thy daughter?
10095Who then has persuaded thee to renounce Apollo?
10095Who was with thee just now?
10095Who would have thought it?
10095Who?
10095Whose book is this?
10095Whose virtue then?
10095Why not consult Manto, the alchemist''s daughter, our prophetess, our Sibyl?
10095Why not, indeed?
10095Why not?
10095Why not?
10095Why should I harm you? 10095 Why tarries Cardinal Barbadico thus?"
10095Why the devil, if I may so express myself,pursued Anno,"did not your Holiness inform us that you_ were_ the devil?
10095Why,he exclaimed,"why was I ever an apostle?
10095Will it ever rain again?
10095Wilt thou then first be healed, and moreover become the instrument of converting the entire realm of Magadha?
10095Would have outraged my daughter, would he?
10095Ye would learn the secret of my celebrated dilemma,said he,"which no sophist can elude?
10095You probably refer to my agility,suggested the Caterpillar;"or perhaps to my abstemiousness?"
10095You?
10095A further and more awkward question arose, how on earth was he to get back to Paradise?
10095A tremendous stroke caught him on the hand; his blade dropped to the earth; why did not the fingers follow?
10095About your age, I think?"
10095Am I inferior to Aspasia in beauty?"
10095Am I to lose the reward of my incredible sufferings?"
10095An early martyr, doubtless?"
10095And as the amazed priest preserved silence, she pursued:"Can aught be more shameful in a religious man than ignorance of the very nature of religion?
10095And fair female forms came veiled with drooping heads, and murmured,"We are thy virtues, and would be rewarded-- would''st thou cheat us?"
10095And he said,"Against what wilt thou write first, Daniel?"
10095And how knowest thou,"added he, striving to soothe her,"that I will not give thee to drink of the miraculous potion?"
10095And know I not that even if I would accept the boon, thou would''st never give it?"
10095And now I ask thee, art thou yet minded to go forth as a missionary of the truth?"
10095And now, Holy Father, your Holiness''s resolution?
10095And others said,"We are thy memories-- wilt thou live on till we are all withered in thy heart?"
10095And others said,"We are thy strength and thy beauty, thy memory and thy wit-- canst thou live, knowing thou wilt never see us more?"
10095And the man in black reasoned with Daniel, and said,"Thou seest this multitude of people, but which of them shall deliver thee out of my hand?
10095And this other?
10095And were you ignorant that whatever one says in the blue chamber is heard in the green?"
10095And who will feed_ you_?"
10095And, it being a red mouse as it indubitably was, to what end fancy it a tawny- throated nightingale?"
10095Are there no means by which the course of study may be accelerated?"
10095Are they not withering already?
10095Are your intentions really honourable?"
10095As soon as the room was clear, he repeated:"What_ does_ the man mean?"
10095At length the youngest exclaimed:"O Emperor, how can we tell thee, unless we know what thou thinkest thyself?"
10095Burned you?
10095But a sorcerer hath arisen, saying,"Why follow ye Abdallah, seeing that he breathes not fire out of his mouth and nostrils?"
10095But how?"
10095But if I can feel no pain, how can I feel any pleasure?
10095But indeed, why few?
10095But where was it?
10095But who was to profit by his communicativeness?
10095Can I consent to lay it down ere I have sounded the seas of the seven climates?"
10095Canst thou counterfeit her signature?"
10095Could it be the ticking of watches?
10095Could the Muses speak with their own voices as they had spoken by Sappho''s?
10095Dared men believe that their shadows were actually lengthening?
10095Daughter Truth, is this a befitting manner of presenting yourself before your divine father?
10095Deemest thou that I will brook being thus cheated of my dear- bought talisman?
10095Did I ever promise any disciple any recompense for his enlightenment and good deeds, save flogging, starvation, and burning?''
10095Did I understand you to mention my name in connection with those flutterers?"
10095Did Narses experience blacker ingratitude than I?
10095Do I not hear that that creature Pannychis has obtained the freedom of the philosophers''city, and the right to study therein?"
10095Do you pretend not to know that the hussey forsook Olympus ten years ago, and has turned Christian?"
10095Do you really mean to say that you do not know me?"
10095Even could I deem them true, should I not think charitably of thee, but yesterday a heathen, and educated in impiety by a foul sorcerer?
10095For what saith the Scripture?
10095From whom save thee, since I closed my father''s eyes, have I heard the tongue of Homer and Plato?"
10095Gallienus was often cruel, but could he intend such a revolting massacre?
10095Had she really nothing else to do?
10095Has not his skin already peeled off his body?
10095Has your Holiness forgotten your Rabelais?"
10095Hast thou peradventure any subtleties in perfumery?
10095Hearest thou not the moaning and pelting of the rising storm, and the muttering and scraping of my imprisoned goblins?
10095How am I to live without anything alive about me?
10095How did she acquire her sting, think you?
10095How indeed was he to prove to them that he_ was_ Euschemon?
10095How shall it be dedicated to Desmotes in Desmotes''lifetime?
10095How shall this be accomplished?"
10095How should this be, seeing that there is no such person?
10095How so?"
10095How to choose the new consuls?"
10095How would my own skin appear in the temple of Jupiter Capitolinus?
10095How, then, shall she be terrible as an army with banners?
10095I deemed it had been determined long ago in favour of Aspasia?"
10095I did but even now open his sacred volume at hazard, and on what did my eye first fall?
10095I exclaimed,''hast thou dared to espouse more wives than one?
10095I see, indeed, people looking up from the earth by night towards me, but how do I know that they are looking at me?"
10095If I think with nothing, and about nothing, is that thinking, do you think?"
10095If the oracle of Dorylà ¦ um was an imposture, hadst thou no oracle in thine own bosom?
10095If the voice of Religion was no longer breathed from the tripod, were the winds and waters silent, or had aught quenched the everlasting stars?
10095If there was no power to impose its mandates from without, couldst thou be unconscious of a power within?
10095If they existed, would they tolerate this vile mockery?
10095If thou hadst nothing to reveal unto men, mightest thou not have found somewhat to propound unto them?
10095If you take away my hands, and my heart, and my brains, and my eyes, and my ears, and above all my tongue, what is left me to live in Elysium?"
10095Is he not suffering from the effects of seventy- two poisons?"
10095Is he not tormented by incessant gripes and vomitings?"
10095Is it a bargain?
10095Is it error or malignity?
10095Is it not thence manifest that the virtue resides solely in the bell of the blessed Euschemon?"
10095Is it possible that the accounts connected with the installation of a few abstemious lovers of wisdom can have swollen to such a prodigous bulk?
10095Is man more conceited than woman, or more confiding?
10095Is not his flesh in a state of deliquescence?
10095Is not the ideal of creation impersonated in me already?"
10095Is the Church to frame herself after the prescriptions of heathen philosophers and profane jurists?
10095Is the storming column ready?"
10095Is there another judge of morals than the Pope speaking_ ex cathedra_, as I always did?
10095Is there indeed no hope?"
10095John?"
10095Know you not that no good man can enter my dominions?
10095Knowest thou not that the inestimable blessings of religion are of an inward and spiritual nature?
10095Legions of little black imps surrounded him crying,"We are thy sins, and would be punished-- would''st thou by living for ever deprive us of our due?"
10095Must I not subscribe an infernal compact?"
10095Needs there, peradventure, any greater miracle for the decipherment of these epistles than a hot needle?
10095No?
10095O Majesty, whence these republican and revolutionary pantaloons?"
10095Otto''s blood ran chill, but he mustered sufficient courage to inquire hoarsely:"What of its further virtues?"
10095Plotinus, how can you?
10095Rememberest thou not what is written in the Book of the prophet Ad?''
10095Said I not so?"
10095Seest thou these scrolls?
10095Shall I look on and see him murdered?
10095Shall I, an innocent proprietor, be mulcted of my right by thy fraud and covin?
10095Shall I, having first unwittingly done my friend the most grievous injury, proceed further to betray her, and doom her to a cruel death?
10095Shall matter prevail over mind?
10095Shall medicine, the most uncertain of sciences, override law, the perfection of human reason?
10095Shall we not appear like foxes, vilipending the grapes that we can not reach?
10095Should he execrate her, or her venerable grandmother, or some unknown person?
10095THE DEMON POPE"So you wo n''t sell me your soul?"
10095That enormous serpents infested her cradle, licking her face and twining around her limbs?
10095That her tiny fingers patted scorpions?
10095That muffled sound from the vast, silent multitude was, doubtless, the quick beating of innumerable hearts; but that sharper note?
10095The city of the Emperor Apollyon?
10095Thou art surely yet a votary of Zeus?"
10095Thou desirest to gather all sorts of philosophers around thee, but to what end, if they are restrained from manifesting their characteristic tenets?
10095Thou hast done some bishoping in thy time, peradventure?"
10095Thou hast never practised riding a broomstick?
10095Thou hast no evidence but her threats, I suppose?
10095Thou hast not caught her tampering with poisons?
10095Thou preferrest the mitre to the laurel chaplet, and the hymns of Gregory to the epics of Homer?"
10095To be misjudged and haply reviled by thy fellows for failing to do what it is not given thee to do?
10095To pine with fruitless longings for good?
10095Was Aurelia deceiver or deceived?
10095Was he about to use it?
10095Was the sun''s rim really drawing nigh yonder great edifice?
10095Were it not a most blissful and appropriate coincidence if the day of the consecration were that of the saint''s migration to a better world?
10095Were it not therefore fitting that thou shouldst encounter the first risk in my stead?"
10095What Deity could die for Olympus, as Leonidas had for Greece?
10095What boots it to describe Otto''s feelings upon this revelation of Aurelia''s sentiments?
10095What could the bishop do but salute them?
10095What did they?
10095What else can Heaven render?
10095What is her name?
10095What name bears she?
10095What of wells and rivers, and the mighty sea itself?
10095What passed?
10095What reply did he vouchsafe to these admonitions?
10095What room hath she for more?
10095What said you to them?
10095What say ye?"
10095What say you to this?"
10095What should she do now?
10095What then?
10095What will the vulgar think when they see the sty of Epicurus sumptuously adorned, and the porch of Zeno shabby and bare?
10095What wonder if they suspect your Holiness of familiarity with Beelzebub, the patron of vermin, and earnestly desire that he would take you to himself?
10095What''s this?
10095Whence this mistrust of your faithful Anno, who has served you so loyally and zealously these many years?"
10095Whence, in the name of the Naiads, do you come?

10095Why can not you store up honey, as she does?"
10095Will the fair Euphronia also have undergone fifteen transmigrations, and will her charms have continued unimpaired?"
10095Will the fruits mature?
10095Will they not deem that the Epicureans are highly respected and the Stoics made of little account?

10095You are going to marry that poor young fellow''s betrothed, are you?
10095You are not really such an ass as to imagine that your virtue has anything to do with the virtue of this bell?"
10095You can catch our rats, can you?
10095You have committed sundry rascalities, no doubt?
10095You probably next addressed yourself to the middling orders of society?
10095You returned, then, to the latter with this design?
10095You want a patent or a privilege for your ratsbane?
10095You would intrigue with her under my nose, would you?

10095asked the Emperor,"is not that a name dear to those misguided creatures?"
10095exclaimed Ananda, weeping bitterly,"and is all the work undone, and all by my fault and folly?"
10095exclaimed Ananda,"whither shall I fly?"
10095exclaimed Chrysostomus,"is this thy grief for thy daughter?"
10095exclaimed Eubulides,"how was that?"
10095exclaimed he in extreme perturbation,"whither shall I turn?

10095exclaimed the Emperor;"but wherewithal shall it be executed?"
10095exclaimed the Lamp,"am I not shining by my own light?"
10095exclaimed the youth,"was Abdallah the Adite thy disciple?"
10095he gasped, as audibly as she would let him,"is this the way it welcomes its own Lucy- pucy?"
10095or but the wanton freak of an idle imagination?"
10095or here?"
10095or is it rather that none can set bounds to the licence of romancers?

10095she exclaimed;"who cares?

10095that, were such a thing possible, my empire would become intolerable to me, and I should be compelled to abdicate?"
10095thou hast it now?"
10095what am I to do?"
10095what''s that?"
10095whence this forlorn semblance?
10095whence this osseous condition?"
10095wherefore?"
10095why didst thou not disclose that thou wert a Jogi?
4928Ah, Tristram''far away from me, Art thou from restless anguish free? 4928 Ah, lady,"said Geraint,"what hath befallen thee?"
4928Am I on earth,he exclaimed,"or am I in Paradise?
4928Am I, then,said Sacripant,"of so little esteem with you that you doubt my power to defend you?
4928And art thou certain that if that knight knew all this, he would come to thy rescue?
4928And how can I do that?
4928And is it thus they have done with a maiden such as she, and moreover my sister, bestowing her without my consent? 4928 And what dost thou here?"
4928And what has Gan been plotting with Marsilius?
4928And what may that be?
4928And what weapon hast thou,said he,"if thy lance fail thee?"
4928And who is he?
4928And who was it that slew them?
4928And you, wherefore come you?
4928But,she added,"thou hast not death''s hue on thee; why then ridest thou here on the way to Hel?"
4928By what means will that be?
4928Can it be possible that any will be so rash as to risk so much for a wife?
4928Cruel wall,they said,"why do you keep two lovers apart?
4928Damsel,said Sir Perceval,"who hath disinherited you?
4928Did he meet with thee?
4928Did you hear the horn as I heard it?
4928Didst thou hear what Llywarch sung, The intrepid and brave old man? 4928 Didst thou inquire of them if they possessed any art?"
4928Do you do this as one of the best knights?
4928Do you hear that?
4928Dost thou know him?
4928Dost thou know how much I owe thee?
4928Fair brother, when came ye hither?
4928Fair damsel,said Sir Launcelot,"know ye in this country any adventures?"
4928Fair knight,said he,"how is it with you?"
4928Geraint,said Guenever,"knowest thou the name of that tall knight yonder?"
4928Hapless youth,he said,"what can I do for you worthy of your praise?
4928Has he not given it before the presence of these nobles?
4928Hast thou heard what Avaon sung, The son of Taliesin, of the recording verse? 4928 Hast thou heard what Garselit sung, The Irishman whom it is safe to follow?
4928Hast thou heard what Llenleawg sung, The noble chief wearing the golden torques? 4928 Hast thou hope of being released for gold or for silver, or for any gifts of wealth, or through battle and fighting?"
4928Hast thou not received all thou didst ask?
4928Have you any tidings?
4928Have you come at last,said he,"long expected, and do I behold you after such perils past?
4928Have you heard anything of Arion?
4928Heaven prosper thee, Geraint,said she;"and why didst thou not go with thy lord to hunt?"
4928How can a fool have such strength?
4928How know you that?
4928How now, Thor?
4928How now, cousin,cried Orlando,"have you too gone over to the enemy?"
4928How shall I need them,said Rinaldo,"since I have lost my horse?"
4928I come, lord, from singing in England; and wherefore dost thou inquire?
4928I put the case,said Palamedes,"that you were well armed, and I naked as ye be; what would you do to me now, by your true knighthood?"
4928I stand in need of counsel,he answered,"and what may that counsel be?"
4928I will gladly,said he;"and in which direction dost thou intend to go?"
4928In the name of Heaven,said Manawyddan,"where are they of the court, and all my host beside?
4928Is it known,said Arthur,"where she is?"
4928Is it thus I find you restored to me?
4928Is it time for us to go to meat?
4928Is not that a mouse that I see in thy hand?
4928Is that the horse they presume to match with Marchevallee, the best steed that ever fed in the vales of Mount Atlas?
4928Is this, then,she said,"the fruit of all my labors?
4928Journeying on from break of day, Feel you not fatigued, my fair? 4928 Know ye,"said Arthur,"who is the knight with the long spear that stands by the brook up yonder?"
4928Knowest thou his name?
4928Lady,he said,"wilt thou tell me aught concerning thy purpose?"
4928Lady,said he,"knowest thou where our horses are?"
4928Lady,said they,"what thinkest thou that this is?"
4928Lord,said Kicva,"wherefore should this be borne from these boors?"
4928Lord,said she,"didst thou hear the words of those men concerning thee?"
4928Lord,said she,"what craft wilt thou follow?
4928Most undutiful and faithless of servants,said she,"do you at last remember that you really have a mistress?
4928My men,said Pwyll,"is there any among you who knows yonder lady?"
4928My son,said she,"desirest thou to ride forth?"
4928My soul,said Gawl,"will thy bag ever be full?"
4928My soul,said Pwyll,"what is the boon thou askest?"
4928Now where did he overtake thee?
4928Now, fellow,said King Arthur,"canst thou bring me there where this giant haunteth?"
4928Now,quoth Owain,"would it not be well to go and endeavor to discover that place?"
4928Now,said Arthur,"where is the maiden for whom I heard thou didst give challenge?"
4928O Bujaforte,said he,"I loved him indeed; but what does his son do here fighting against his friends?"
4928O Pyramus,she cried,"what has done this?
4928O my friend,said he,"must then the body of our prince be the prey of wolves and ravens?
4928O my lord,said she,"what dost thou here?"
4928Say ye so?
4928Seest thou yonder red tilled ground?
4928Shall I not believe my own eyes and ears?
4928Shall such wickedness triumph?
4928Sir knight,said Arthur,"for what cause abidest thou here?"
4928Sir, what penance shall I do?
4928Sir,said Geraint,"what is thy counsel to me concerning this knight, on account of the insult which the maiden of Guenever received from the dwarf?"
4928Sir,said Sir Bedivere,"what man is there buried that ye pray so near unto?"
4928Sir,said Sir Bohort,"but how know ye that I shall sit there?"
4928Sir,said Sir Galahad,"can you tell me the marvel of the shield?"
4928Sir,said she,"when thinkest thou that Geraint will be here?"
4928Sir,said the king,"is it your will to alight and partake of our cheer?"
4928Sirs,said Sir Galahad,"what adventure brought you hither?"
4928Suppose they will not trust themselves with me?
4928Tell me, I pray you,he said,"what benefit will accrue to him who shall get the better in this contest?
4928Tell me, good lad,said one of them,"sawest thou a knight pass this way either today or yesterday?"
4928Tell me, tall man,said Perceval,"is that Arthur yonder?"
4928Tell me,said Sir Bohort,"knowest thou of any adventure?"
4928Tell me,said the knight,"didst thou see any one coming after me from the court?"
4928That will I not, by Heaven,she said;"yonder man was the first to whom my faith was ever pledged; and shall I prove inconstant to him?"
4928Then Bacchus( for it was indeed he), as if shaking off his drowsiness, exclaimed,''What are you doing with me? 4928 Then Perceval told him his name, and said,"Who art thou?"
4928There is; wherefore dost thou call?
4928They are already united by mutual vows,she said,"and in the sight of Heaven what more is necessary?"
4928This is indeed a marvel,said he;"saw you aught else?"
4928This will I do gladly; and who art thou?
4928Traitor knight,said Queen Guenever,"what wilt thou do?
4928Truly,said Pwyll,"this is to me the most pleasing quest on which thou couldst have come; and wilt thou tell me who thou art?"
4928Verily,said she,"what thinkest thou to do?"
4928Well,cried the hero,"what news?"
4928What are we to do,said he,"now that daylight has left us?"
4928What are ye?
4928What discourse,said Guenever,"do I hear between you?
4928What doth my knight the while? 4928 What fault of mine, dearest husband, has turned your affection from me?
4928What god can tempt one so young and handsome to throw himself away? 4928 What harm is there in that, lady?"
4928What has become,said they,"of Caradoc, the son of Bran, and the seven men who were left with him in this island?"
4928What hast thou there, lord?
4928What have ye seen?
4928What heart had I left me, during all this, or what ought I to have had, except to hate life and wish to be with my dead subjects? 4928 What herb has such a power?"
4928What is the forest that is seen upon the sea?
4928What is the lofty ridge, with the lake on each side thereof?
4928What is the meaning of this?
4928What is there about him,asked Arthur,"that thou never yet didst see his like?"
4928What is this?
4928What is thy craft?
4928What is your lord''s name?
4928What is your name?
4928What is your name?
4928What kind of a thief may it be, lord, that thou couldst put into thy glove?
4928What knight is he that thou hatest so above others?
4928What manner of thief is that?
4928What manner of thief, lord?
4928What new trial hast thou to propose?
4928What sawest thou there?
4928What sawest thou there?
4928What say ye to this adventure,said Sir Gawain,"that one spear hath felled us all four?"
4928What saying was that?
4928What sort of meal?
4928What then wouldst thou?
4928What thinkest thou that we should do concerning this?
4928What treatment is there for guests and strangers that alight in that castle?
4928What was that?
4928What wight art thou,the lady said,"that will not speak to me?
4928What wilt thou more?
4928What work art thou upon?
4928What wouldst thou with Arthur?
4928What,exclaimed the woman,"have all things sworn to spare Baldur?"
4928Whence came these stories? 4928 Where are my pages and my servants?
4928Where is Cuchulain?
4928Where is he that seeks my daughter? 4928 Where is the Earl Ynywl,"said Geraint,"and his wife and his daughter?"
4928Where,said she,"are thy companion and thy dogs?"
4928Wherefore came she to me?
4928Wherefore comes he?
4928Wherefore not?
4928Wherefore not?
4928Wherefore wilt thou not?
4928Wherefore,said Evnissyen,"comes not my nephew, the son of my sister, unto me?
4928Which way went they hence?
4928Who is the loser now?
4928Who may he be?
4928Who would not have been moved with these gentle words of the goddess? 4928 Whose are the sheep that thou dost keep, and to whom does yonder castle belong?"
4928Why dost thou ask my name?
4928Why should I not prove adventures?
4928Why should you wish to behold me?
4928Why withdrawest thou, false traitor?
4928Why, who is he?
4928Why,said Sir Lionel,"will ye stay me?
4928Why?
4928Will nothing satisfy you but my life?
4928Will she come here if she is sent to?
4928Will this please thee?
4928Willest thou this, lord?
4928Wilt thou follow my counsel,said the youth,"and take thy meal from me?"
4928Wilt thou follow the counsel of another?
4928Yes, in truth,said she;"and who art thou?"
4928''What hope for us,''resumed the king,''if he brings with him a greater host than that?''
4928''Why do you refuse me water?''
4928A prince of the house of Guienne, must he not blush at the cowardly abandonment of the faith of his fathers?"
4928Aeneas, horror- struck, inquired of his guide what crimes were those whose punishments produced the sounds he heard?
4928Aeneas, wondering at the sight, asked the Sibyl,"Why this discrimination?"
4928After having disobeyed my mother''s commands and made you my wife, will you think me a monster and cut off my head?
4928Ah, noble sir,"he added,"tell me, I beseech you, of what country and race you come?"
4928Alcinous says to Ulysses:"Say from what city, from what regions tossed, And what inhabitants those regions boast?
4928And Arthur said to him,"Hast thou news from the gate?"
4928And Gawain was much grieved to see Arthur in his state, and he questioned him, saying,"O my lord, what has befallen thee?"
4928And Gwernach said to him,"O man, is it true that is reported of thee, that thou knowest how to burnish swords?"
4928And Kilwich said to Yspadaden Penkawr,"Is thy daughter mine now?"
4928And Sir Launcelot heard him say,"O sweet Lord, when shall this sorrow leave me, and when shall the holy vessel come by me whereby I shall be healed?"
4928And after twenty- four days he opened his eyes; and when he saw folk he made great sorrow, and said,"Why have ye wakened me?
4928And as they came in, every one of Pwyll''s knights struck a blow upon the bag, and asked,"What is here?"
4928And can any other woman dare more than I?
4928And his father inquired of him,"What has come over thee, my son, and what aileth thee?"
4928And is Lorenzo''s salamander- heart Cold and untouched amid these sacred fires?"
4928And now, wilt thou come to guide me out of the town?"
4928And shall I let you go into such danger alone?
4928And share with him-- the unforgiven-- His vulture and his rock?"
4928And the earl said to Enid,"Alas, lady, what hath befallen thee?"
4928And the maiden bent down towards her, and said,"What aileth thee, that thou answereth no one to- day?"
4928And the queen said,"Ah, dear brother, why have ye tarried so long?
4928And the woman asked them,"Upon what errand come you here?"
4928And then he said to the man,"Canst thou tell me the way to some chapel, where I may bury this body?"
4928And they spoke unto him, and said,"O man, whose castle is that?"
4928And they went up to the mound whereon the herdsman was, and they said to him,"How dost thou fare, herdsman?"
4928And thinking that he knew him, he inquired of him,"Art thou Edeyrn, the son of Nudd?"
4928And what cowardice makes thee sink under this last danger who hast been so miraculously supported in all thy former?"
4928And what is it, pray, that brings you into these parts?
4928And what work art thou upon, lord?"
4928And what, lord, art thou doing?"
4928And when meat was ended, Pwyll said,"Where are the hosts that went yesterday to the top of the mound?"
4928And whence dost thou come, scholar?"
4928And who will proceed with thee, since thou art not strong enough to traverse the land of Loegyr alone?"
4928And with this they put questions one to another, Who had braver men?
4928And ye also, who are ye?"
4928And, by the way, pray tell me, are you not that Orlando who makes such a noise in the world?
4928Are there any birds perched on this tree?
4928Art thou awake, Thor?
4928As no one came, Narcissus called again,"Why do you shun me?"
4928Asked Gwyddno,"Art thou able to speak, and thou so little?"
4928Bethink thee how thou art a king''s son, and a knight of the Table Round, and how thou art about to dishonor all knighthood and thyself?"
4928Bradamante, addressing the host, said,"Could you furnish me a guide to conduct me to the castle of this enchanter?"
4928But Alardo said,"Brother, let Bayard live a little longer; who knows what God may do for us?"
4928But Psyche said,"Why, my dear parents, do you now lament me?
4928But a voice from the tower said to her,"Why, poor unlucky girl, dost thou design to put an end to thy days in so dreadful a manner?
4928But how is mythology to be taught to one who does not learn it through the medium of the languages of Greece and Rome?

4928Do you forget the battle of Albracca, and how, in your defence, I fought single- handed against Agrican and all his knights?"
4928Do you not see that even in heaven some despise our power?
4928Do you prefer to rob me of my ring rather than receive it as a gift?
4928Does she ever come hither, so that she may be seen?"
4928Dost thou bring any new tidings?"

15202But, my dear sister, who ever heard of violets blooming in the snow?

15202Friend,she said to the countryman,"tell me where is he who gave thee this ring?"
15202Hallo, where are you?
15202Hast thou any horned beasts, the Sheriff then said, Good fellow, to sell to me? 15202 Have I been dreaming?"
15202Have I not?
15202Have you left your liver behind you?

15202How now, little lady,he said,"pray what is the matter with you this morning?"
15202I am not obliged to tell you, old graybeard; what business is it of yours?
15202I beseech thee, noble knight,said the King,"tell me why thou hast journeyed to this our royal city?"
15202I should love to go,said the monkey,"but how am I to cross the water?
15202I want to know,replied Odin,"for whom Hela is making ready that gilded couch in Helheim?"
15202I wonder if it will be the same at dinner,he thought,"and if so, how am I going to live if all my food is to be turned into gold?"
15202I wonder what he will do next? 15202 I wonder,"said he,"how I must do it?
15202If only you could capture one of those monkeys?
15202Is it a he or a she?
15202Is it much further,she asked,"and will you carry me back when I have seen your palace?"
15202Is it now the time to fight with staves? 15202 Is it so beautiful as all that?"
15202Is that your boy?
15202Is there something alive in the box? 15202 Is this eaten or not?"
15202Law, law?
15202Men of God, may I warm myself at your fire? 15202 Men of God, may I warm myself at your fire?
15202Mother, what do you want?
15202Mr. Monkey, tell me, have you such a thing as a liver with you?
15202Must I leave my home and my people?
15202Must you really go? 15202 My child,"she said,"did you taste any food while you were in King Pluto''s palace?"
15202My father?
15202My friend, my Roland, who shall now lead my army? 15202 My lord,"said Tell, turning pale,"you do not mean that?
15202No, no,he said,"why should I want to look at you?"
15202No,said Tom,"my mother did not teach me that wit: who would be fool then?"
15202No,was the reply, with his usual deceit;"how do you think_ he_ could get to this place?
15202Noko,said he,"what is the matter?"
15202Nothing,Hiawatha replied;"but can you tell me whether any one lives in this lake, and what brings you here yourself?"
15202Now mother, why will you not let me sleep?
15202Now tell me honestly,said he to Thor,"what do you think of your success?"
15202Now, young man, when can I see these horned beasts of yours?
15202O Frithiof why hast thou come hither to steal an old man''s bride?
15202O father, where are you going?
15202O master dear, what has happened?
15202O my sweet purple violets, shall I ever see you again?
15202Oh, may I? 15202 Oh, where is my dear child?"
15202Poor little orphan,he said sadly,"what will become of thee without a mother''s care?"
15202Pray who are you, kind fairy?
15202Pray, my young friend, what is your name?
15202Proserpina, Proserpina did you call her?
15202Seest thou the fairest of the band,cried the King,"she who is clad in a white garment?
15202Shall the pawn save the king?
15202Sir Siegfried,he said,"wilt thou help me to win the matchless maiden Brunhild for my queen?"
15202Sir,said the monster,"who gave you permission to come this way?
15202Sire,he said,"hast thou forgotten thy promise, that when Brunhild entered the royal city thy lady sister should be my bride?"
15202Son of Satan,said the keeper,"why do you let your horse stray in the cornfields?"
15202Star of day,she replied,"whom could I have here that you would not see sooner than I?
15202Strangers, who are ye?
15202Tell me what it is you want for the Queen?
15202Tell me, Sire,he said,"what grief oppresseth thee?"
15202Tell me, do you really wish to get rid of your fatal gift?
15202Tell me, have you seen him pass?
15202Tell,he said at last,"that was a fine shot, but for what was the other arrow?"
15202Tell?
15202That is the most important thing of all,said the stupid jellyfish,"so as soon as I recollected it, I asked you if you had yours with you?"
15202The archbishop, where is he? 15202 The way is long,"said Rustem;"how shall I go?"
15202Then why did you not bring more?
15202Then you are not satisfied?
15202There is Ogier the Dane,said Ganelon quickly,"who better?"
15202This is not the season for violets; dost thou not see the snow everywhere?
15202This is the river Lethe,said King Pluto;"do you not think it a very pleasant stream?"
15202This is the strangest thing I have ever known,said Pandora, rather frightened,"What will Epimetheus say?
15202To the house of Dède- Vsévède? 15202 Very miserable, are you?"
15202Well, friend Midas,he said,"pray how are you enjoying your new power?"
15202Well, how high? 15202 Well,"said Loki to himself,"if this is the sport of Asgard, what must that of Jötunheim be?
15202Well,said the wolf,"whom do you think is the fastest of the boys?
15202What adventure has brought you here?
15202What ails thee, Polyphemus?
15202What can I do?

15202What can that be?
15202What causes these cries?
15202What delightful milk, Mother Baucis,said Mercury,"may I have some more?
15202What did you see?
15202What did you see?
15202What do you want, mother?
15202What does the man mean,thought the old farmer,"calling this largely populated city a cemetery?"
15202What does this mean?
15202What dost thou demand of my master?
15202What god can tempt one so young and handsome to throw himself away? 15202 What has brought thee here?
15202What has she got to love? 15202 What have you in that box, Epimetheus?"

15202What shall I do, then?
15202What towers are these?
15202What was it, mother?
15202What was the old woman like?
15202What were they doing?
15202What will you call your castle?
15202What would satisfy you?
15202When our lord and King gave us swords and armor,he cried,"did we not promise to follow him in battle whenever he had need?
15202Whence sail ye over the watery ways? 15202 Where are my wife and my children?"

15202You kill me by saying so,cried Mother Ceres, almost ready to faint;"where was the sound, and which way did it seem to go?"
15202You''re not going yet, are you?
15202Yours is a kind welcome, very different from the one we got in the village; pray why do you live in such a bad place?
15202After a while his heart began to fail him, and he sighed and said within himself,"What if my father have other sons around him, whom he loves?
15202After a while, as he was thus musing, there appeared before him one in white garments, who said unto him,"Sleepest thou or wakest thou, Rodrigo?"
15202Alas, my little child, what will become of thee when I am gone?"
15202All at once he cried out, with a loud and terrified voice,"What is that behind you?"
15202Am I one to whom you can say,''Come down from your throne, and present yourself before me?''
15202And Medeia said slowly,"Why should you die?
15202And besides, who would dare to attack Roland?
15202And he asked him,"Will you leave your mountains, Orpheus, my playfellow in old times, and sail with the heroes to bring home the Golden Fleece?
15202And how do you know my name?"
15202And how shall I slay her, if her scales be iron and brass?"
15202And if I give command of the rear to Roland, who, then, shall lead the van?"
15202And if it be the will of Heaven that you should fall by the hand of the White Genius, who can change the ordering of destiny?
15202And now must I go out again, to the ends of all the earth, far away into the misty darkness?
15202And she asked,"Do you see the land beyond?"
15202And she whispered to Medeia, her sister,"Why should all these brave men die?
15202And the herald asked in wonder,"Fair youth, do you know whither you are going?"
15202And then, what do you think happened?
15202And they asked,"How shall we set your spirit free?"
15202And to what end?
15202And what do you think he saw?
15202And what was the Golden Fleece?
15202And who will show me the way?
15202And will you charm for us all men and all monsters with your magic harp and song?"
15202And will you stay with us,"asked Epimetheus,"for ever and ever?"
15202Are they not a beautiful color?
15202Are they not fine and fat?
15202Are ye merchants?
15202Are you careless of your life?
15202Are you not dreadfully hungry, is there nothing I can get you to eat?"
15202Are you stronger than your uncle Pelias the Terrible?"
15202As high as the snow- mountains?"
15202As soon as the pole was set up a herald stepped out, blew his trumpet and cried,"Se ye this cap here set up?
15202As these butchers had nothing to do, they began to talk among themselves and say,"Who is this man?
15202As you have never seen the palace of the Dragon King, wo n''t you avail yourself of this splendid opportunity by coming with me?
15202At first Marouckla was afraid, but after a while her courage returned and drawing near she said:"Men of God, may I warm myself at your fire?
15202At last he said,"Now, Will, do n''t you think that is enough?"
15202At last, however, he found voice to ask,"What is your name?"
15202At length his grandmother asked him,"Hiawatha, what is the matter with you?"
15202At the head?
15202At this she grew very angry and said,"How couldst_ thou_ see in darkness?
15202Aulad said to him,"Who are you?
15202But Aietes thought,"Who is this, who is proof against all magic?
15202But Odin asked very gravely,"Is the shadow gone out of our son''s heart, or is it still there?"
15202But Theseus wept,"Shall I leave you, O my mother?"
15202But after a moment Pelias spoke gently,"Why so rash, my son?
15202But am I not superior to them in courage, in power and wealth?
15202But are you not Hiawatha himself?"
15202But each man''s neighbor whispered in return,"His shoulders are broad; will you rise and put him out?"
15202But he said hastily,"Do you not know who this Theseus is?
15202But how shall I cross the seas without a ship?
15202But how was it to be done?
15202But in whom does he trust for help?"
15202But now what can I do?
15202But perhaps, as you are a tiger, when I have made you well, you will eat me?"
15202But soon he looked at Pelias, and when he saw that he still wept, he said,"Why do you look so sad, my uncle?"
15202But still she sighed and said,"Why will you die, young as you are?
15202But tell me where thou didst leave thy good ship?
15202But tell me, do the serpents ever appear?
15202But when spring had come, a herald stood in the market- place and cried,"O people and King of Athens, where is your yearly tribute?"
15202But where are we most likely to find a monkey?"
15202But where is my brother?
15202But who can tell us where among them is hid the Golden Fleece?"
15202But why cometh he within our borders?
15202Cadmus thought,"or did I really hear a voice?"
15202Can not you get me a wife?"
15202Can you give me a plan, Jason, by which I can rid myself of that man?"
15202Can you guess who I am?
15202Can you tell by the jumps they take?"
15202Can you tell me what has become of my little daughter Proserpina?"
15202Cheiron sighed and said,"Will you go to Iolcos by the sea?
15202Could this be his long lost sister Europa coming to make him happy after all these weary years of searching and wandering?
15202Could you, good mother, put me on the right road?"
15202Dare you brave Medusa the Gorgon?"
15202Did Guy, I wonder, or some other, in days of loneliness and despair, carve these words?
15202Do not you care what you do?
15202Do you dare to disobey me?"
15202Do you mock at poor old souls like me?"
15202Do you not know how I make all stand in fear of me?
15202Do you not think that these diamonds which I have had dug out of the mine for you are far prettier than violets?"
15202Do you see this lovely crown on my head?
15202Do you want to buy some?"
15202Dost thou not see how many thousand heads hang upon yonder tree-- heads of those who have offended against my laws?
15202Dost thou take him for an enemy?
15202Europa was very frightened, and she started up from among the tulips and lilies and cried out,"Cadmus, brother Cadmus, where are you?
15202For how much longer must this poor old man continue to row?"
15202For what man might tell which from that fight should come forth victorious?
15202From whence didst thou get it?"
15202Good Phoebus, will you come with me to demand my daughter from this wicked Pluto?"
15202Had Eurydice really followed his steps, or had she turned back, and was all his toil in vain?
15202Had they such warriors as you, and Rustem your son?
15202Has an adventure come to me already?"
15202Has everything sworn then?"
15202Has he been vanquished by the warrior- queen?
15202Has not the old world perished, and all that was in it?"
15202Hath she picked up a shipwrecked stranger, or is this one of the gods who has come to make her his wife?''
15202He checked his horse and, gazing angrily round the crowd,"What is this rioting?"
15202He cried out,"Tyau, why do you strike me, you old dog?"
15202He robs people, he-- do you think we will meet him?"
15202He said:"Oh, tongue, what is this that you have done through your greediness?
15202He stopped for a moment, but then said to himself,"What have I to lose?
15202Hippomenes, not daunted by this result, fixing his eyes on the virgin, said,"Why boast of beating those laggards?
15202His wife, seeing him, exclaimed in great surprise,"What has happened to you?"
15202How can I cut that thick tree- trunk in two with a wax hatchet?"
15202How can I do this?"
15202How can I ever do that?"
15202How can I possibly tie it up again?"
15202How can I trust thee?"
15202How much do you want for it?
15202How say you?
15202How then will you do it?"
15202I am very poor, no one cares for me, I have not even a fire in my cottage; will you let me warm myself at yours?"
15202I looked at that spot only a moment ago; why did I not see the flowers?"
15202I pray you, good shepherds, tell me where they may be found?"
15202I see you have been gathering flowers?
15202I wonder what Father Odin and Mother Frigga would say if they were here?"
15202III HOW THEY BUILT THE SHIP ARGO So the heralds went out and cried to all the heroes,"Who dare come to the adventures of the Golden Fleece?"
15202If he die, where shall I find such another?"
15202If you had fallen under his claws, how should I have carried to Mazanderan this cuirass and helmet, this lasso, my bow and my sword?"
15202In the midst of his trouble he met an old woman who said,"Where are you going, Plavacek?
15202Is Baldur going to Helheim?"
15202Is n''t it a lovely day?"
15202Is there any knight among you who will fight this giant?
15202Is there no more corn, that men can not make bread and give us?
15202It is a bargain, is n''t it?"
15202Luckless wretch, what brings you to this mountain?"
15202May I, mother?"
15202Meanwhile the Blind Man called out to his friend:"Where am I?
15202Medeia''s heart pitied the heroes, and Jason most of all, and she answered,"Our father is stern and terrible, and who can win the Golden Fleece?"
15202Oh my Emperor, my friend, alas, why wert thou not here?
15202Oliver, my brother, how shall we speed him now our mournful news?"
15202Oliver, where art thou?"
15202One observed,"Why do n''t you attend the sick, and not sit there making such a noise?"
15202Pandora sobbed:"No, no, I am afraid; there are so many troubles with stings flying about that we do not want any more?"
15202Rustem said to Aulad,"What mean these fires that are blazing up to right and left of us?"
15202Shall I slay the Gorgon?"
15202Skrymner half opened the eye nearest to Thor, and said in a very sleepy voice,"Why will the leaves drop off the trees?"
15202So she called out,"Father Cobra, father Cobra, my husband has come to fetch me; will you let me go?"
15202So the mighty army passed onward through the vale of Roncesvalles without doubt or dread, for did not Roland the brave guard the rear?
15202Sternly Aietes looked at the heroes, and sternly he spoke and loud,"Who are you, and what want you here that you come to our shore?
15202Still Theseus came steadily on, and he asked,"And what is your name, bold spider, and where are your spider''s fangs?"
15202Surely no one stealeth thy flocks?
15202Swiftly then the Prince drew his sword, well tempered as he knew, for had not he himself wrought it in the forge of Mimer the blacksmith?
15202THE SUN; OR, THE THREE GOLDEN HAIRS OF THE OLD MAN VSÉVÈDE ADAPTED BY ALEXANDER CHODSKO Can this be a true story?
15202Tell me, for pity''s sake, have you seen my poor child Proserpina pass by the mouth of your cave?"
15202Tell me, how did it happen?"
15202Tell me, then, why you come?"
15202The King looked at him attentively, then turning to the fisherman, said,"That is a good- looking lad; is he your son?"
15202The King saw the crown, set with precious stones, and said,"To what end bring ye hither this crown?"
15202The Prince showed him the mustard seed, and said to him,"How can I crush the oil out of all this mustard seed in one day?
15202The Rajah''s son asked some men he saw,"Whose country is this?"
15202The Sheriff''s house was close to the town hall, so as dinner was not quite ready all the butchers went to say"How do you do?"
15202The bird inquired,"What are you doing here?"
15202The devils in great surprise jumped up, saying,"Who is this?"
15202The great Setchène raised his head and answered:"What brings thee here, my daughter?
15202The great Setchène raised his head and asked:"Why comest thou here?
15202The people crowded round and asked them,"Who are you, that you sit weeping here?"
15202The young wolves were in the act of running off, when Hiawatha cried out,"My grandchildren, where are you going?
15202Then Circe cried to Medeia,"Ah, wretched girl, have you forgotten your sins that you come hither, where the flowers bloom all the year round?
15202Then Earl Eric, Hakon''s son, who loved brave men, said,"Vagn, wilt thou accept life?"
15202Then Orpheus sighed,"Have I not had enough of toil and of weary wandering far and wide, since I lived in Cheiron''s cave, above Iolcos by the sea?
15202Then Theseus laughed and said,"Am I not safe enough now?"
15202Then Theseus shouted to him,"Holla, thou valiant Pine- bender, hast thou two fir- trees left for me?"
15202Then he asked them,"By what road shall I go homeward again?"
15202Then he clasped her in his arms, and cried,"Where are these sea- gods, cruel and unjust, who doom fair maids to death?
15202Then he cried to Athene,"Shall I never see my mother more, and the blue ripple of the sea and the sunny hills of Hellas?"
15202Then he looked down through the cloud and said,"Are you all weeping?"
15202Then he said to him again,"Good bangle- seller, I would see these strange people of whom you speak; can not you take me there?"
15202Then he said to the parrots,"Who is the Princess Labam?
15202Then he said,"And will you now come home with me?"
15202Then he sighed and asked,"Is it true what the heroes tell me-- that I am heir of that fair land?"
15202Then he thought of his tiger: and the tiger and his wife came to him and said,"Why are you so sad?"
15202Then if it is not so, when will he cease his wars?"
15202Then recovering himself he got down from his horse and said:"I want a trusty messenger to take a message to the palace, could you send him with it?"
15202Then said Cincinnatus, being not a little astonished,"Is all well?"
15202Then said Odysseus:"How can I be at peace with thee, Circe?
15202Then she loved him all the more and said,"But when you have killed him, how will you find your way out of the labyrinth?"
15202Then the king died, and there was great dismay in the city, for where would they find a good ruler to sit on the throne?
15202These he put on the tigers to make them beautiful, and he took them to the King, and said to him,"May these tigers fight your demons for me?"
15202Theseus walked on steadily, and made no answer, but he thought,"Is this some robber?
15202They saw Theseus and called to him,"Holla, tall stranger at the door, what is your will to- day?"
15202They went outside the sacred wall and looked down over the bright blue sea, and Aithra said,"Do you see the land at our feet?"
15202This Cobra was a very wise animal, and seeing the maiden, he put his head out of his hole, and said to her:"Little girl, why do you cry?"
15202This time the brother was in a better temper, so he lent what was asked of him, but said mockingly,"What can such beggars as you have to measure?"
15202This time they gathered with less fear and less secrecy, for was not the dreaded governor dead?
15202Three days he kept Ferbad as his guest, and then sent back by him this answer:"Shall the water of the sea be equal to wine?
15202To her maidens then she called:"Why do ye run away at the sight of a man?
15202To what have my English come that I may not find one knight among them bold enough to do battle for his King and country?
15202To whom therefore shall I trust the rear- guard that we may march in surety?"
15202V WEEPING"Well, Hermod, what did she say?"
15202Was it a saint who kneeled, or was it the Lord Himself?
15202Was it near here, or at the far end of the island?"
15202Was it not splendid?"
15202Was the King''s wonderful palace falling to pieces?
15202Were ever any so divinely beautiful?
15202Were not these sandals to lead me in the right road?"
15202Were peasants ever more unruly and discontented?
15202Were you made of iron, could you venture to deal alone with these sons of Satan?"
15202What ails you that you tarry here, doing no thing?"
15202What are all these splendors if she has no one to care for?
15202What are you doing here?
15202What can be done to make it fruitful?"
15202What can be the matter?"
15202What can this one do?"
15202What can we do?"
15202What cruel men have bound you?
15202What did he care for danger?
15202What do you think of my horned beasts?"
15202What dost thou seek?"
15202What dost thou seek?"
15202What dost thou seek?"
15202What dost thou seek?"
15202What has happened?
15202What have you in your saddle- bags, then?"
15202What if he will not receive me?
15202What if there be another noble deed to be done before I see the sunny hills of Hellas?"
15202What is all this crying about?"
15202What is it for?"
15202What is the matter with them?
15202What is the present to be?"
15202What must be done to restore the flow of water?"
15202What need have these peasants for great houses?"
15202What nonsense is this?
15202What people?"
15202What think ye?"
15202What would you do, Theseus, if you were king of such a land?"
15202When King Kaoüs came up with his warriors, he said to Rustem,"What is it?
15202When Rustem awoke and saw the dead lion, which indeed was of a monstrous size, he said to Raksh,"Wise beast, who bade you fight with a lion?
15202When he got to the pine- tree he raised his voice and said:"How do you do, Mr. Monkey?
15202When she saw Jason, she spoke, whining,"Who will carry me across the flood?"
15202When they saw him they trembled and said,"Are you come to rob our garden and carry off our golden fruit?"
15202When?
15202Whence art thou?"
15202Where am I?
15202Where am I?"
15202Where are you going?"
15202Where are you going?"
15202Where are you going?"
15202Where are you going?"
15202Where can I find the monster?"
15202Where could he have come from?
15202Where does she live?"
15202Where have you come from and what is your name?"
15202Where is thy sword called Hauteclere with its crystal pommel and golden guard?"
15202Where is your aged father, and the brother whom you killed?
15202Where?
15202Who are you, and whence?
15202Who are you?
15202Who knows if we shall see Pelion again?
15202Who so bold?
15202Who was it?"
15202Who would be the victor, who the vanquished?
15202Who would guard the treasure now, and who would warn his master that a strong man had found his way to Nibelheim?
15202Why did I not think of him sooner?
15202Why did you pluck off my keeper''s ears and let your horse feed in the cornfields?"
15202Why do you come to my room?"
15202Why does not my father give up the fleece, that my husband''s spirit may have rest?"
15202Why halt?
15202Why left he us not in peace?"
15202Why should I fear?
15202Why should he welcome me now?"
15202Why, then, do you ride on the way to Helheim?"
15202Will it please you to listen to me?
15202Will you ask Dède- Vsévède the cause of it?"
15202Will you pass the night under our roof?
15202Will you shake hands and be friends with me?"
15202Without these Apples of Idun, Asgard itself would have lost its charm; for what would heaven be without youth and beauty forever shining through it?
15202Would he see the light that was brighter than any sunbeam again?
15202Would his adventures bring him at last to the Holy Grail?
15202Would they not have found the Sacred Cup one day if they had stayed with their King and helped to clear the country of its enemies?
15202Would you like to come?"
15202Yet what could they do?
15202You naughty Pandora, why did you open this wicked box?"
15202You remember that Mercury''s staff was leaning against the cottage wall?
15202and he answered and said,"I do not sleep: but who art thou that bringest with thee such brightness and so sweet an odor?"
15202and not buy any horned cattle?
15202asked Pandora,"and where did it come from?"
15202called King Marsil to his treasurer,"are my gifts for the Emperor ready?"
15202cried he to himself,"some men have got in here, have they?
15202exclaimed Loki, eagerly;"what is that you say?
15202have you found it more easy to promise than to fulfil?"
15202have you found me again?"
15202he cried out;"why do you come here?"
15202he said;"what will become of us in the cottage?
15202how can that be?
15202how can you think so?"
15202is that all?"
15202is that it?"
15202is this thy mercy to strangers and widows?
15202or are ye sea- robbers who rove over the sea, risking your own lives and bringing evil to other men?"
15202or why are ye thus come at the bidding of your master, King Porsenna, to rob others of the freedom that ye care not to have for yourselves?"
15202said Perseus;"will she not freeze me too?"
15202said Philemon;"and your friend, what is he called?"
15202said Tom,"have you drunk of my strong beer already?"
15202said he, placidly, after he had got by,"how do you like my exploit?"
15202said the poor Queen, weeping,"Europa is lost, and if I should lose my three sons as well, what would become of me?
15202she asked;"tell me, have you taken her to your home under the sea?"
15202they all cried, together;"can he tell us about Earl Hakon?"
15202what had he done?
15202what has become of our poor neighbors?"
15202why did you dirty my hook by taking it in your mouth?
15202why do you laugh at me?
15202would you not like to ride a little way with me in my beautiful chariot?"
15202Ægeus cried,"What have you done?"
