39598Is n''t it an ideal May- day, grandfather?
39598Now, Cora,interrupted the maternal critic,"you went and forgot to make your bow; and how many times have I told you about turning your toes out?

39598Why, Bud, there ai n''t no screw loose in Christmas, is there?

39598Would n''t he be as odd and old- fashioned as the lace valentines themselves? 39598 Would you mind telling me_ how_?"
39598''What''s it done?''
39598After all, how do we know that the things we cry out against_ are_ mistakes?
39598And what''s it doin''for us, now?''
39598Bowser?"
39598But what do we see when we change Presidents?
39598By the way, Miss Helen, have you heard Mrs. Mahone''s allegory of the United Pudding bag?
39598Chapter X"GUESS who''s come to board at the Widder Powers''s for the month of August?"
39598Did you ever think of it, Jim, that''s a mighty interesting way to earn your salt?

40408''And Miss Carruthers?''
40408''And did you like them?''
40408''And have you continued it, or part of it?''
40408''Are we all here?''
40408''Are you fond of dancing?''
40408''Are you ill?''
40408''But Lady Pierpoint?
40408''But are we really going to this ball?''
40408''But how are we to know Mrs. Loftus and Miss Pierpoint apart?''
40408''But why should we go?''
40408''Can I do anything for it?''
40408''Can you manage to walk to it?''
40408''Dark is the world to thee?
40408''Do you mean to tell me, now that we are married and it is too late to go back, that you are High Church?''
40408''Has Crack said anything unkind?''
40408''Have I, then?''
40408''Have you written lately to Lady Pierpoint?''
40408''How dare she think of him?''
40408''How dare you insult me?''
40408''How much shall I say?
40408''I suppose Lady Pierpoint is less well off now that you are married?''
40408''Is it half- mourning, do you suppose?''
40408''Is it the body that is ill, or is it the mind?''
40408''Is it the same nothing that troubled you the night of the ball?''
40408''It is n''t true what that man said in the next arch, that-- that Mr. Loftus married me out of pity?''
40408''It is n''t true, is it?
40408''It is n''t true, is it?''
40408''May I go in the dogcart if Sibyl does n''t want to?''
40408''May I have your salts?''
40408''May I walk up with you?''
40408''Oh, mummy, may I go in the dogcart_ now_?''
40408''Peggy,''said Lady Pierpoint,''shall I tell you a secret?
40408''Shall I take you to the cloak- room to leave your mask and domino?''
40408''Shall we go into the gallery,''said Doll,''and watch the unmasking from there?
40408''Then, my child, what is it?''
40408''Then, where is Sibyl?''
40408''Uncle George,''stammered the young man with sudden anger,''will you never, never understand?
40408''Well, then,''he added, correcting himself,''as one who cared for and understood you, and whose earnest wish was to see you happy?''
40408''What are you thinking of?''
40408''What do you take me for?''
40408''What is Doll to me?''
40408''What is it?
40408''What is n''t true?''
40408''What right have I to shirk the consequences of my own actions?
40408''Which are you?''
40408''Will Sibyl also pass away?''
40408''Would you like me to dance or not?''
40408''You have been so good to me,''he went on,''from the first day of our married life when I was ill. Do you remember?
40408''Your girls here?''
40408A thousand a year or fifteen hundred for her life?''
40408And yet in her heart of hearts, if she had such a thing, had she not partly guessed that fact long ago, and wilfully shut her eyes to it?
40408Are you ill?''
40408At last, all in a moment, the struggle ceased, and a light came into his fixed eyes of awe and thankfulness, and-- was it joy?
40408But would He grant it?
40408Could it be anything to do with Doll?
40408Does any woman ever really remain in ignorance if she is not loved, or if she has been married for other reasons than love?
40408Had he lost his head on the night of the ball?
40408Had she discovered that she and Doll were young?
40408Had she left him?
40408I feel ill.''''Wo n''t she have me?''
40408I think it is so much nicer, do n''t you?''
40408If it were that her health was threatened as it had been before her marriage, why should her affection towards himself have undergone this change?
40408If one loves anybody, does one forget the others?''
40408Is it possible that anything occurred to upset her?''
40408Is it so much to ask?''
40408Is that it?''
40408Is that why she did not mind going away from all of us a bit?
40408It had been on the tip of Doll''s tongue all the evening to say:''Why did you marry him?
40408Loftus?''
40408Loftus?''
40408Loftus?''
40408Oh, surely there is some mistake?
40408Quite a character, though, is n''t he?''
40408She looked older and grayer, and why was she alone?
40408The other day when I pressed him on the subject of the devil-- I know he is lax on the devil-- I said:"But, Mr. Loftus, do you not believe in him?"
40408Was it possible that she was afraid of him?
40408What could be troubling her that she, who did not know what reticence meant, could fear to tell him, which yet Doll knew?
40408What do the doctors say?''
40408What do_ you_ think?''
40408What have I done to deserve such a great devotion?''
40408What was a woman''s love and devotion to them when the first novelty had worn off?
40408What will become of her?
40408Who was this coming slowly towards her along the little path by the water''s edge?
40408Why had he sworn before the altar and the Bishop to love her, if he did not love her?
40408Why had she married Uncle George?
40408Why had she married Uncle George?
40408did Doll tell you?''
40408had she left him, as that other wife had left him in the half- forgotten past, buried beneath so many years?
40408he said, examining his metal teaspoon;''will not she be in London with you this season, with your own daughters?''
40408he said--''ill?
40408how dared you do it, how dared you swear to love me before God, if you did not, if you could not?
40408what is it?
40408what is it?''
40408what right to be a coward?
39802A friend of yours, eh?
39802Ah, but the motive?
39802Ah-- and the fellows who never get there?
39802Ah-- could you meet Tommy at 2.15?
39802Ah-- could you possibly meet the 2.15 to- morrow?
39802All right?
39802An''how she was derived from them, you know, an''all that?
39802And he knew?
39802And how do you do, my dear Lady Chantrey? 39802 And never realised?"
39802And the experiment-- how does it progress?
39802And then?
39802And therefore a cad?
39802And what, I wonder, to- morrow?
39802And who is this?
39802And will again, I suppose, eh?
39802Are you not well, sir?
39802Are you the browny whitey colonel''s son?
39802Been bathing?
39802Been fooling up the stream, I suppose?
39802Bees you there, eh?
39802But I can not take philosophy home to her mother-- she will most certainly require Madge-- and can you tell me where this path leads?
39802But is n''t it-- isn''t it a little embarrassing to be sought in matrimony by four or five ladies?
39802But it seems funny, and do n''t you think you''d find it rather slow?
39802Ca n''t a gentleman drink when he likes-- damn you?
39802Cad?
39802Can boys of that age undress themselves and brush their own teeth, do you suppose?
39802Dare n''t I?
39802Deserted the flocks, then?
39802Did he, by Jove-- which was it?
39802Did you know my father?
39802Did you-- did you have any converse with the boy?
39802Digitalis purpurea-- a drug, too, is it not?
39802Do n''t know anything about that-- got it from the agents for six years-- like to see the deed, heh?
39802Do you know young Morris, of Borcombe?
39802Eh?
39802Er-- does he-- can he undress himself and-- and all that, you know?
39802For instance?
39802Good gracious, where can the child have got to?
39802Have you enjoyed the morning?
39802How did you know the road you''re on, then?
39802How did you lose it?
39802How do you know I had two helps?
39802How do you like this?
39802How do you mean; why is n''t it altogether true?
39802How goes the experiment?
39802How-- how did you come to know all about it?
39802Hullo, what''s the matter?
39802Hullo,he said;"been picking flowers?"
39802I am not an expert, but he''ll do, wo n''t he?
39802I beg your pardon,he said, looking into a pair of blue eyes-- or were they grey, or hazel?
39802I say, if you''re going to the post- office with that will you buy me some elastic-- for my catty, you know?
39802I say, what was it that gipsy fellow said-- at the end, you know?
39802I say, wo n''t you come in?
39802I say; you do n''t mind, do you? 39802 I think it''s awful rot, thinking such a beastly lot about girls, and all that sort of thing, you know, do n''t you?"
39802I-- I was drunk last night, was n''t I?
39802I-- he''s all right, is n''t he?
39802I?
39802If God be only beyond the crest, how shall they fare?
39802In blindness, Jasper?
39802In sickness, Jasper?
39802Is n''t it jolly-- it must be a glad life these open- air folk lead, do n''t you think?
39802Is there not a method of procedure, by which one may call thrice?
39802Is-- is he better?
39802It is pretty, is n''t it?
39802Lucien and Angel--?
39802Made many runs this year, sir, d''ye know?
39802May I beg one foxglove for my coat?
39802May we search together-- you know the proverb about the heads?
39802My dear Madge, where_ have_ you been?
39802My stick down there?
39802Not after two helps of jam roll?
39802Not the poor colonel''s heir?
39802Of course there is-- would you like me to toss again?
39802Of what?
39802Oh-- then you dare n''t?
39802Please-- please do n''t fight-- why should you?
39802Really; how interesting-- how are you, my dear?
39802Seen Tommy?
39802Shall we-- er-- shall we toss-- draw lots, that is?
39802Shirty, eh? 39802 Sleepy?"
39802Surely I know you?
39802Surely not again a truant?
39802That is-- you-- you wo n''t hit anything, will you?
39802That young''awk, sir, as I sent him last week?
39802That''s quite poetical, is n''t it, even if it is a bit of a platitude?
39802The poet?
39802The poet?
39802Then you have noticed nothing else-- nothing in his demeanour or conversation-- or friends?
39802There,observed Tommy, with the proud air of a proprietor,"Did n''t I tell you?"
39802They ask you then, do they?
39802They''re jolly good-- but I say, who is she?
39802To feel inadequate is the beginning of wisdom; is it not so? 39802 To- morrow?
39802We''re just by the path now-- Isn''t it grand?
39802We''re wedded to sport-- no use for girls here, eh dad?
39802Well, and what did you think of it?
39802Well?
39802Wh-- what is your name?
39802What do you mean?
39802What do you mean?
39802What is his name?
39802What the dickens are you doing, Jake?
39802What''s that?
39802What''s the matter?
39802What-- always?
39802Whatever has happened to your hair? 39802 When does he return to school?"
39802Who could know better?
39802Who-- who are you?
39802Whom?
39802Why-- Tommy?
39802Why-- who says so?
39802Why?
39802Why?
39802Will you''ave it up''ere or down yon, young man?
39802Yes-- why not?
39802You are expecting a parcel?
39802You are the poet, are you not?
39802You came out to gather flowers?
39802You do n''t mind, do you?
39802You have lost some one?
39802You have n''t seen the vicar?
39802You have n''t thought much about these things?
39802You have saved, then?
39802You know him?
39802You love nature, dear boy-- the sights and sounds and mysteries of the hedgerow and the stream-- is it not so?
39802You see what I mean?
39802You think my writings lack the ring of conviction?
39802You understand, sir?
39802You would bid him ask?
39802You would have Tommy march, then, for the clouds?
39802You''re a native, are you?
39802You-- you never told him?
39802You-- you would bid him never speak?
39802''Could he help her?
39802*****"Hullo, Tommy,"said I, on my return that night, from the doctor''s study,"Enjoyed the evening?"
39802After all, it is n''t much good looking for a child in a wood, is it?"
39802Ah, who knows?"
39802An''look''ee''ere, sir, money''s easy spent along o''they gals, sir, ben''t it, onst they gets their''ands on it?"
39802And had they not quarrelled so deeply that repair was almost an impossibility?
39802Are you in trouble?
39802Are you listless and discouraged?
39802Bad livin''in they big schools, sir, ben''t it?"
39802Can not you aim at-- at inanimate objects?"
39802Chundle?"
39802Could it be that my rule of life was based on a fallacy?
39802Did the rat scent danger?
39802Do you not see how it might----?"
39802For a few minutes they sat in silence, then,"Where do you go to school?"
39802For was not its legend of H. M. S. Daring, and must not the honour of Britain''s navy be manfully maintained?
39802I did n''t want none o''''er forty pounds, sir, an''you bees got to stick to''em wen you marries''em, ben''t''ee, sir?"
39802I have long felt that our poet was getting too solitary and remote-- too self- centred, shall I say?
39802I was silent, and, indeed, what was there to say?
39802Is n''t it too hot for anything?
39802It was true that his offences had been great, but then, was not forgiveness divine?
39802Miss Gerald bent over a foxglove rising gracefully over the bracken:"Are n''t they lovely?"
39802Mrs. Berrill gave me a huge tea the other day, Mrs. Chundle-- awful good cake she makes, do n''t you, Mrs. Berrill?
39802Presently,"You belong to Camslove Grange, do n''t you?"
39802Said a voice from behind the hedge:"Girl in it?"
39802Says Jasper the gipsy:"Life is very sweet, brother; who would wish to die?"
39802The stranger smoked a minute or two in silence, then:"Where is the crest?"
39802Then he remembered a question he had meant to ask her,"I say, Lady Chantrey, who''s living at the Grange?"
39802Then she remembered that it must not be answered-- for was not Tommy in disgrace-- at any rate, as far as she was concerned?
39802Then turning, apologetically, to the colonel,"It''s better to make_ quite_ sure, do n''t you think?"
39802Then,"Good- bye, old chap-- meet again somewhere, perhaps-- and, I say, about the road, shall it be the upland road for both of us?"
39802There''s a- many''ave noticed it; do n''t let''i m get friends wi''----""With whom?"
39802Thomas''s?"
39802To whom is he to go first?"
39802Up''ere or down yon?"
39802Was it not written in fair characters in her last copy- book?
39802Was there anybody near who could save Tommy from a probable and violent death?''
39802We do n''t seem to agree about things much, do we?
39802What''s that got to do with it?"
39802Why should there be war anywhere in the world?
39802Wouldst a song o''shepherding, out upon the down, Splendid days o''summer- time, an''roaring days o''spring?
39802You-- ought you to smoke, if you''re-- if your constitution''s rocky, you know?"
16186''How''s the professor?''
16186A hint?
16186A whole month, is n''t it?
16186A youngish man?
16186About what?
16186About?
16186Am I--faintly--"nothing to you?
16186And Miss Wynter, will you suit_ her_ well enough?
16186And all you said?
16186And she?
16186And yet-- yet you would_ like_ to dance?
16186And you are her guardian, you know, and----"Why not propose to her yourself?
16186And you are my guardian, are n''t you?
16186And----?
16186Anything new?
16186Are you sure?
16186Are you_ sure? 16186 At her house?"
16186At her receptions?
16186At this hour?
16186But I may depend upon you--anxiously--"you will do what you can for me?"
16186But a concert_ is n''t_ like a ball, is it?
16186But what about tea?
16186But what is that?
16186But-- it_ is_ soon, is n''t it?
16186Can you ask?
16186Clothes?
16186Decision?
16186Did he himself? 16186 Do n''t you?"
16186Do you forbid me then to lay before you-- this name-- that I----?
16186Do you imagine I do not know why you plead his cause so eloquently? 16186 Do you imagine that_--_--?"
16186Do you know that you and Aunt Jane are the only two people in all London whom I know?
16186Do you mean,says the girl,"that I have broken yours?
16186Do you think I am not saying all this for your good? 16186 Do you think I want to marry your brother?"
16186Do you think I want you to_ lie_ to me? 16186 Do you think one should go_ nowhere_ when wearing black?"
16186Do you think so?
16186Do you think that one should not go to a concert when----"Yes?
16186Do? 16186 Eh?"
16186Eh?
16186Eh?
16186Have you come to see me or Aunt Jane?
16186Have you no relation to whom you could send her?
16186Have you read''Alas?'' 16186 Have you then forgotten?"
16186He thinks so, too, of course?
16186How could you hurt her so? 16186 How do you know?"
16186I am talking to you about my_ name._ You understand that, do n''t you?
16186I am to propose to her-- I?
16186I said,''Is Mr. Curzon at home?'' 16186 I see no reason why she should n''t be,"says the professor calmly-- is there a faint suspicion of hauteur in his tone?
16186I think,anxiously,"you once told me you did not care for Sir----""Did I?
16186I wonder when that would be?
16186If you spoke to her again, when she was in a better temper, do n''t you think she would let you take me to the theatre some night?
16186If you will not dance with me, then may I hope that you will give me the few too short moments that this waltz may contain?
16186Impossible to leave Aunt Jane?
16186Is he?
16186Is it-- I am not much in your or her world, you know-- is it a very marked thing for a girl to sit out three waltzes with one man?
16186Is it?
16186Is_ this_ the big, strong, noisy girl of his imaginings? 16186 It is about her?"
16186It is what is_ she_ going to do?
16186It is you, Mr. Curzon, is it not?
16186Kind? 16186 Like what?"
16186Mad? 16186 Married?"
16186May I ask how you knew I_ had_ a ward?
16186May I ask, Mr. Curzon,says she, with great dignity and more temper,"what may be the meanin''of all this?"
16186Mr. Curzon''s? 16186 Nobody?"
16186Not come again? 16186 Not till then?
16186Of what else?
16186Only what he used to call me--_Doatie!_ I suppose,wistfully,"you could n''t call me that?"
16186Ought I not?
16186Perpetua-- is it not?
16186Seen what?
16186Shall I order them to stop?
16186Shall I take you to Gwendoline?
16186Shall I take you to Lady Baring?
16186Shall I take you to Lady Baring?
16186She? 16186 She?"
16186Should I not? 16186 Should one?"
16186Some old lady? 16186 Students?"
16186Tell me?
16186Than enjoyment?
16186There''s lots of room here, is n''t there?
16186They said----_"What?
16186They''ll cut_ her_, and they''ll cut me, and-- what the_ deuce_ did Wynter mean by leaving me his daughter? 16186 To plead his cause afresh?"
16186To_ stay._ Have n''t I told you? 16186 Was n''t it fortunate I found you?"
16186We were talking of what?
16186Well,_ she_ is the point, is n''t she? 16186 Well?"
16186Were you going to cut me?
16186What d''ye mean, woman?
16186What do_ you_ mean, damn you?
16186What has a title got to do with esteem?--and what has esteem got to do with love?
16186What has happened?
16186What have_ I_ to do with it? 16186 What is it,"asks she,"that best part?"
16186What is it?
16186What is it?
16186What on earth am I to do with a girl of seventeen? 16186 What on earth has brought her here at all?"
16186What were you going to tell me about him?
16186What''s that?
16186What''s the matter with Mr. Hardinge,asks Perpetua,"that he ca n''t come here himself?
16186Where is she now?
16186Where''s your head, man? 16186 Who are_ you?
16186Who can tell the age of any man in this degenerate age? 16186 Who is it to whom you propose to marry Miss Wynter?"
16186Who opened the door for you?
16186Who told you that I hated you?
16186Who told you that?
16186Who was that, dear?
16186Who''s mad? 16186 Whose then?
16186Why ca n''t I?
16186Why do n''t you take her home again, back to the old aunt?
16186Why give me this terrible task? 16186 Why have you come to- day?"
16186Why not send her to you sister then?
16186Why not?
16186Why not?
16186Why should I not listen? 16186 Why should they not be?
16186Why that gesture, Mr. Curzon? 16186 Why?
16186Will Miss Wynter like_ her? 16186 Will she like Per---- Miss Wynter?"
16186Will you then_ compel_ me to marry him?
16186Wo n''t you sit down?
16186Would he?
16186Would that be nonsense?
16186Yes? 16186 Yes?
16186Yes? 16186 Yes?
16186Yes?
16186Yes?
16186Yes?
16186You are a_ rara avis,_ do you know? 16186 You dismiss me?"
16186You do n''t like him?
16186You have nothing to say, then?
16186You have_ some_ friends surely?
16186You know my sister, then?
16186You mean to say you really_ like_ Perpetua?
16186You mean----?
16186You mean----?
16186You mean----?
16186You mean?
16186You refuse then to go with me in this matter?
16186You teach them? 16186 You think I shall lead him a very bad life?"
16186You think then-- that I-- am a trouble to him?
16186You want me to deny it then?
16186You want me?
16186You were saying?
16186You will come soon again?
16186You will forward my cause rather than your brother''s, will you not? 16186 You--_you_ would n''t ask her something, would you, Hardinge?"
16186Your ward? 16186 _ I_ am?"
16186_Must you go?
16186_Why?
16186''Say a good word for me''to her; that is the old way of putting it, is n''t it?
16186A poor, sad outcast like me?"
16186After all, what can the bravest man do with an angry old woman, except to get away from her as quickly as possible?
16186An aunt, for example?"
16186An''where to, sir, dear?
16186An''who is to give away the poor dear, sir, askin''yer pardon?"
16186And I shall grow more, is n''t it?"
16186And bad people,"slowly,"are not known, are they?"
16186And is this to be the end of it all?
16186And look here, Curzon, why are n''t you of our world?
16186And what was it you said of Mr. Hardinge?
16186And where is she to sleep?
16186And why do you call yourself an outcast?
16186And will Hardinge be here presently to plead his cause in person?
16186And yet again, should a little brilliant face like that know sadness?
16186And you?"
16186And----?"
16186And_ why?
16186Another suitor, maybe?
16186Are his social duties now so numerous that he has forgotten he has a ward?
16186Are they_ all_ new-- or some sweet, fresher memory of a picture well beloved?
16186Are you going now, Mr. Curzon?
16186Are you thinking of reserving the prize for your own special benefit?
16186Because you order me?"
16186Besides, you forget Sir Hastings is Lady Baring''s brother too, and-- you have n''t anything to say against_ her,_ have you?
16186But have ye thought o''yer clothes, me dear?"
16186But in the meantime, whilst sitting on a milestone of life waiting for that grim friend, what is to be done with her?
16186But little girls like you are good to everyone, are you not?
16186But that---- Why not call Thursday-- or even Wednesday?
16186But will she?"
16186But, after all, how could she know that?
16186Come now, who was it?"
16186Deuced pretty little girl, is n''t she, and good form too?
16186Did I not_ tell_ you you were in a hurry to get rid of me?"
16186Did ever anxious student ask him question so difficult of answer as this one-- that this small maiden has propounded?
16186Did you notice nothing in his manner last night?"
16186Do n''t I know you?
16186Do you imagine I have not been thinking?"
16186Do you remember the talk we had that last day you came to Aunt Jane''s?
16186Do you think I ca n''t see through your game?"
16186Do you think you could make it out whilst I count forty?"
16186Do-- do_ you_ think----?"
16186Does he think----?
16186Eh?
16186Go,_ at once!_ D''ye see?
16186Going_ so soon?_""I have classes,"says the professor.
16186Had he-- had she-- what_ was_ it he meant?
16186Hardinge pauses, and turns to the professor--"Has she?"
16186Hardinge,"desperately,"what_ am_ I to do?"
16186Hardinge?"
16186Has he been kind to old Wynter''s child?
16186Has he been true to his trust?
16186Has not the great world claimed her now, and presently will she not belong to it?
16186Has she no common sense-- no knowledge of the things that be?
16186Have you noticed it?
16186He has forgotten youth for many days, has youth in revenge forgotten him?
16186He-- he does n''t like me, I''m afraid?"
16186He----""Why think of him?"
16186He_ is_ your brother, is n''t he?
16186Her dead father left her to my care, and am I to sell her to you, that her money may redeem our name from the slough into which_ you_ have flung it?
16186His wrathful eyes are on his brother rather than on her when he says:"You are tired?"
16186How could I put it all on paper?
16186How is it I have never seen you there?"
16186How kind?"
16186How many to- morrows is she going to remain here?
16186How soon must this unpleasant interview take place?
16186I ca n''t explain it to her-- you-- don''t think_ you_ could, do you, Hardinge?"
16186I can lend you some books, easy ones at first, and----""I could n''t read_ your_ books,"says she;"and-- you have n''t any novels, I suppose?"
16186I do n''t like Perpetua, do you?"
16186I have known girls do it often, but she is not like other girls, is she?"
16186I mean nothing offensive--_so far_--sir, but it behoves me to be careful, and behind those glasses, who can tell what demon lurks?
16186I suppose you know you have the best man in all the world for your guardian?
16186Is enjoyment nothing to you?"
16186Is he angry?
16186Is innocence to be sacrificed that vice may ride abroad again?
16186Is it child or woman, this fair vision?
16186Is it possible she is going to ask him to call her by that familiar-- almost affectionate-- name?
16186Is n''t it?"
16186Is she any longer his?
16186Is that her name?
16186Is that small action of his unseen?
16186Is this pallor, this unmistakable trepidation, caused only by his dislike to hear his brother''s real character exposed?
16186Is this really the professor?
16186Is_ this_ the professor''s troublesome ward?
16186It is an intent gaze that seldom wanders, and in truth why should it?
16186It is true, is it not?"
16186It''s a little rude of you, do you know?
16186Miss Wynter?"
16186Mrs. Mulcahy he can trust, but she-- awful thought-- will she trust him?
16186Need I say what follows?
16186Not to thim rascally sthudents, I do thrust?"
16186Nothing serious, I hope?"
16186Perhaps, who knows?
16186See?"
16186See?"
16186She had come to him because she_ wanted_ him, because he might be of use to her, not because-- What had Hastings been saying to her?
16186She has come nearer,= silently corrected as= do n''t you think she would let you take me to the theatre some night?"
16186She is at this moment asking herself, who is it he is like?
16186She might so easily have made it your lip-- or your nose-- or----"_"What_ is there in Everett''s cupboard besides the beer?"
16186She reveres you, even if----""If what?"
16186She?
16186Simple loneliness, or misery downright?
16186Sometimes?"
16186Surely that was something?
16186That?"
16186The bouncing creature with untidy hair, and her clothes pitchforked on to her?"
16186The professor hesitates a moment, and then:"What do you want me to do?"
16186Then why do n''t you take me away from it?"
16186They-- surely they will call; they will see you-- they----""Will take an overwhelming fancy to me?
16186This little Australian girl, is she_ laughing_ at him?
16186This lovely child has created it, yet why, or how?
16186To call upon this ward of his is a thing that must be done sooner of later, then why not sooner?
16186Too warm?
16186Was ever guardian mastered by a ward before?
16186We all hate ourselves sometimes, do n''t we?"
16186Well, Thaddeus-- hardly expected to see_ me_ here, eh?"
16186Well, we are together now, are n''t we?
16186Well-- haven''t you a cousin then?--or something?"
16186Well-- what else?"
16186Well----"What do_ you_ think?"
16186What a peculiar one?
16186What are his thoughts of her at all hours, all seasons?
16186What are you going to do, eh?"
16186What are you then?"
16186What can you mean?"
16186What day is this?
16186What had she meant-- what?
16186What has he_ done_ that the Fates should so visit him?
16186What have I done then that yours should be broken?"
16186What if he should make a mistake?
16186What is his name?"
16186What is it?
16186What is she like?"
16186What is she thinking now?
16186What is she to me?"
16186What is the name of this man you want to marry?"
16186What more would you be?"
16186What of your father?"
16186What was it--_what?_ Shall he never have the courage to find out?
16186What was it--_what?_ Shall he never have the courage to find out?
16186What was the sum?
16186What will the landlady say?
16186What''s that in your glass?"
16186What,"throwing out her hands expressively,"is a guardian_ for,_ if it is n''t to take care of people?"
16186What?"
16186What_ are_ they?
16186Where are the glasses that until now hid his eyes?
16186Where is any other thing as good to look at as this small, fair creature, with the eyes, and the hair, and the lips that belong to her?
16186Where is that old, old coat?
16186Who could harm the like of ye?
16186Who was the_ first_ person she had expected?
16186Who''d live with a woman like that?
16186Who_ is_ Curzon?
16186Who_ is_ he like?
16186Why go so soon?"
16186Why indeed?
16186Why not arrange another marriage for her, before this affair with Sir Hastings goes too far?"
16186Why not at once?
16186Why on earth had n''t he read it_ first?_ So the girl is to be sent to live with her aunt after all-- an old lady-- maiden lady.
16186Why should you malign yourself like that?
16186Why should you mind that awful old woman?"
16186Why,"coming closer to him and pressing five soft little fingers in an almost feverish fashion upon his arm,"why ca n''t_ you_ take me away?"
16186Why?"
16186Why?"
16186Will you see to_ that?_""Of course,"says the professor gravely.
16186You ca n''t stay in this house, d''ye_ hear?_ I ca n''t permit it.
16186You could be good to even a scapegrace, eh?
16186You remember that last evening?"
16186You think, then, that last night Miss Wynter gave you-- encouragement?"
16186You were going to say----?"
16186You would-- wouldn''t you?"
16186You-- you could n''t let me make you a cup of tea, could you?
16186You--"doubtfully, and mindful of his last speech--"Haven''t you seen him?"
16186You_ will_ help me, wo n''t you?
16186Yours?
16186_ Did_ she raise her hands as if to hold them out to him?
16186_ My_ name now?
16186_ You_ think of my happiness?"
16186_ Yours?_ Have I been so bad as that?
16186_ Yours?_ Have I been so bad as that?
16186_ why_ did n''t poor papa send me to live with you?"
16186_"Always_ studying?"
16186_"I?
16186_"No?_ Why?"
16186_"No?_ Why?"
16186_"Was_ it nothing?
16186_"We?
16186_"Why_ do n''t you like your Aunt Jane?"
16186_"Your_ mission?"
16186and what is age after all?
16186asks she, with admirable courage,"of names, was it not?
16186cries he, just as impulsively, and decidedly very foolishly; but the sight of her small mortified face has proved too much for him,"Only----""Only?"
16186cries she, flashing round at him,"will you deny that I have been a trouble to you, that you would have been thankful had you never heard my name?"
16186do you think me only a silly useless creature?
16186he can laugh then?"
16186says she; and then suddenly, as if not caring for the answer she has demanded,"You mean that he---- You_ too_ think that he dislikes me?"
16186was I not right?
16186what am I to do?"
16186what is there to tell you?
16186with a sudden lovely smile,"you, Sir Hastings?"
55039''Aff a quid?
55039''Air cut, sir?
55039''What lady?'' 55039 ''Where''s the flowers?''
55039A hundred- pound note; can you do it?
55039About the attack of youth?
55039Am I? 55039 An authoress?"
55039And that money in the safe?
55039And the car?
55039And the dear old lady is her mother, I suppose?
55039And what did you say?
55039Are they not charming?
55039Are they?
55039Are you angry?
55039Are you down here for long?
55039Are you in love with him, Cerise?
55039Are you staying at the Charing Cross?
55039As you say, fresh-- but I want to know, was that an optical illusion? 55039 Bobby has told you, then?"
55039But if he''s like that, where''s the use of finding him?
55039But if that is so what am I to do?
55039But look here,said the other,"do you believe it?
55039But suppose he do n''t know me?
55039But surely your sudden disappearance must have caused alarm? 55039 Can I see her?"
55039Can he have gone to see that girl? 55039 Can you change me a penny, please?"
55039Could n''t that doctor man take care of him?
55039Crossin''the meadows, they kept to the river, me after them----"How far behind?
55039Dear old thing.... Is that cushion comfy?... 55039 Did I ever dream I''d see this day?"
55039Did he make resistance?
55039Did he recognise you this morning?
55039Did n''t he? 55039 Did you?"
55039Do you wish to make out a case of_ non compos mentis_?
55039Does Miss Rosinol live here?
55039Does it not seem like a dream,_ ma fée_?
55039Does one eat one''s grandmother? 55039 Does the Duke of Cu- cu- cumberland live here?"
55039Evans''s? 55039 Feeling all right this morning?"
55039Five pounds?
55039God bless my soul, what''s the matter with the man?
55039Gone to the country?
55039Good heavens, Julia,cried Bobby, the vision of gnus emulating zebras rising before him,"you ca n''t mean to paint him?"
55039H''are you?
55039H''are you?
55039Has he gone there to live?
55039Has the chap a licence for a barrel- organ?
55039Have a drink?
55039Have they gone to Upton- on- Hill, do you know?
55039Have you any more money anywhere about?
55039Have you any near and trustworthy relatives?
55039Have you seen an old gentleman-- I mean a youngish- looking gentleman-- in a straw hat?
55039Have you told her the state he''s in?
55039He could n''t have taken it out with him to- day, do you think?
55039He was called away, was he not?
55039He was very rich; he wanted to marry Cerise, did he not, Cerise?
55039He''s not hurt, is he?
55039He''s not mad, is he?
55039Hello, Mr. Mudd,said the other;"going courting?"
55039How can I wait?
55039How could a little thing like that spoil friendship?
55039How d''you mean?
55039How d''you mean?
55039How did you find out?
55039How did you guess that?
55039How do you make that out?
55039How do you mean-- a family party?
55039How much are you in love with him, Cerise?
55039How much?
55039How much?
55039How old is he?
55039How so?
55039How would it be if I were to see her?
55039How would you like to marry uncle?
55039How''s he going on?
55039How''s that?
55039How''s the novel going on?
55039How?
55039How?
55039I beg your pardon, a what?
55039I beg your pardon?
55039I can speak confidentially?
55039I do n''t know,said Tozer,"but I believe he can-- and he seems to be doing it, do n''t he?"
55039I say, Mudd, he must have been busy yesterday-- upon_ my_ soul----"Question is, what am I to do?
55039I say,said he,"do n''t you think this may be a bit too much for uncle?"
55039I think we are almost mutual acquaintances,said he;"wo n''t you come in?
55039If you''re wanting to see a bit of sport maybe you''d like to jine me?
55039In which direction?
55039Is Mr. Pettigrew in this hotel?
55039Is Mr. Ravenshaw at home?
55039Is a Mr. Pettigrew here?
55039Is he mad?
55039Is he not charming?
55039Is his wife present?
55039Is n''t it?
55039Is not Mr. Pettigrew in?
55039Is she staying at the hotel?
55039Is there any fear of those women getting hold of him?
55039Is there any money in the pockets?
55039Is your master in, Mudd?
55039Is, then, Monsieur Pattigrew your oncle?
55039It is a letter?
55039It''s the French girl?
55039Julia, can you keep a secret?
55039Look here,, said the unfortunate, at last,"was n''t there a girl you told me of last night you wanted to send flowers to?
55039Look here,said he,"what''s the good of staying in London a glorious day like this?
55039Mad?
55039Make money?
55039May I ask----"Yes?
55039Miss Delyse? 55039 Miss Rossignol?"
55039Mr. Pettigrew,said Tidd,"where are my papers-- the papers in the case of Renshaw?"
55039Mrs. Jukes,said Brownlow,"can you give me Mr. Pettigrew''s present address?"
55039Mudd,said Bobby, when they were in the hall again,"what is it?"
55039Never can feel grateful enough to you either-- you''ve nothing special to do, have you? 55039 No old gentleman?"
55039Not back? 55039 Put myself in a mad- house?"
55039Relations?
55039Saved her?
55039Shall I send for the doctor right off, sir?
55039Shall I send for you, doctor, if he gets worse?
55039Shall I tell her he''s off his head and that maybe she''ll have the law on her if she goes on fooling with him?
55039Sir?
55039So? 55039 Staying here with him?"
55039Suppose this thing lets me in for another five thousand, and Lord knows what else? 55039 Tell me,"said Oppenshaw suddenly,"why did you come to me to- day to tell me all this?"
55039Tell me,said Oppenshaw,"has he been buying new clothes?"
55039Tell me,said Simon,"is this confounded disease, or whatever it is, recurrent?"
55039Ten thousand what?
55039That all?
55039That gentleman you came with?
55039That this drawing of another ten thousand, unknown to yourself, is only the first act in a similar drama, or shall we say comedy?
55039That''s all very well,said he,"but where am I to go?
55039The one you told me of that fired you out and cut you off with a shilling?
55039There was no old gentleman in the car?
55039Tipsy?
55039Trailing after him?
55039Uncle?
55039Used you to write verses when you were young?
55039W''ere to?
55039Wach you mean givin''wrong address? 55039 Was Randall there?"
55039Was there anyone with me?
55039Well, Mudd,said Bobby,"has n''t he turned up yet?"
55039Well, how''s Uncle Simon?
55039Well, that''s two ladies, is n''t it?
55039Well, what is it now?
55039Well, what luck?
55039Well, why do n''t you tell the relative and make it up?
55039Well?
55039What ails you, Ravenshaw?
55039What am I to do?
55039What am I to do?
55039What are you doing with those clothes?
55039What are you going to do now?
55039What are you up to?
55039What are you up to?
55039What at?
55039What can I have done with him?
55039What disease did you say?
55039What do you mean?
55039What do you want?
55039What girl?
55039What happened to him?
55039What have we done foolish?
55039What have you been doing?
55039What is it now?
55039What is it, Mudd?
55039What is it, sir?
55039What is the young lady like?
55039What made him go back on you?
55039What o''clock did I come home?
55039What o''clock is it?
55039What on earth do you mean?
55039What on earth for?
55039What put that into your head, Mr. Meyer? 55039 What sort of fix?"
55039What sort of note?
55039What sort of relative?
55039What the devil do you want?
55039What was the horse?
55039What women?
55039What''ll you have?
55039What''s he been a- doing of?
55039What''s her name?
55039What''s its name?
55039What''s that?
55039What''s the good of talking of the impracticable?
55039What''s the hurry?
55039What''s the matter now?
55039What''s the matter with my uncle, Mudd?
55039What''s the matter with your old rooms? 55039 What''s the name of it?"
55039What''s wrong with you?
55039What?
55039When do you think he will be in?
55039When is he likely to return?
55039When''s he back?
55039When?
55039Where am I?
55039Where are you going to?
55039Where are you going?
55039Where are you off to now?
55039Where is he?
55039Where is he?
55039Where on earth can he be?
55039Where to, sir?
55039Where to, sir?
55039Where''s he gone?
55039Where''s my hat? 55039 Where''s my hat?"
55039Where''s that chap that put his head through the window?
55039Which Evanses did you say, sir?
55039Which one?
55039Which uncle?
55039Which way?
55039Who could help?
55039Who''s that?
55039Who?
55039Why did n''t you wire me that day,said She,"that you were going off so soon?
55039Why, Bobby, what is the matter with you?
55039Why, how do you know he loves other girls?
55039Will he by any chance have left his address at his private house?
55039With Miss Rossignol?
55039With all London before you?
55039Would he be at his house, do you think?
55039Yes, sir, glorious weather, is n''t it? 55039 Yes?"
55039Yes?
55039Yes?
55039You are going to put him in a book?
55039You are in charge of my case?
55039You ca n''t wait?
55039You mean is there any fear that your old self-- or, rather, your young self-- is preparing for another outbreak?
55039You mean to say you do n''t care for me any more?
55039You remember what I said to you about them night lines?
55039You were full of the joy of living?
55039You will promise me surely, most surely, you will never tell my little secret?
55039You wired?
55039You''ve lost?
55039Your uncle?
55039''See here, Brownlow,''said he,''did you put these in my safe?''
55039A ten?
55039And are you all staying here together?"
55039And how am I to write stories tied like this?"
55039And how are you off for''air brushes, sir?
55039And look at that fender-- sure you put the chain on the hall door last night?"
55039And yet can all wisdom give one the pleasure of one''s first ball- dress, of the young man''s brand- new suit?
55039Anywhere I can drive you to?"
55039Ask him which Evans''s?"
55039Balls,"said Brownlow with a spasmodic attempt at a wink,"can you not get Mr. Pettigrew''s present address?"
55039Besides, he''s to be humoured, so the doctor said, did n''t he?"
55039Bitter, or just herself?
55039Bobby, have you forgotten yesterday?"
55039Brownlow?"
55039Brownlow?"
55039But perhaps it''s for the best; she''s a good woman and will look after him, and he''ll_ have_ to finish the business, wo n''t he?"
55039But see here, Mudd, where does he get his money from?"
55039But the question is, where shall we take him?
55039But why did he want to be alone?
55039CHAPTER VI TIDD AND RENSHAW Did he mind?
55039Can a man get young again and forget everything and go on like this?"
55039Can you let me have two halfpence for a penny, please?"
55039Could it be possible that this pleasant- faced, jovial- looking gentleman, so well- dressed and_ à la mode_, was Uncle Simon?
55039Could it be possible that this was the truth?
55039Could it be?...
55039Could the policeman be bribed?
55039Did he stick to beer?"
55039Did not Mr. Justice Thurlow marry his cook?
55039Do I look as though I were a dreamer or creature of fancies?"
55039Do n''t you know that the_ Wessex Chronicle_ will publish yards about it, to say nothing of the local rag?
55039Do you fish?"
55039Do you know what these old magistrates are like?
55039Do you remember, was this Hastings or Bognor?
55039Ever tried face massage, sir?
55039Ever try a Gillette razor, sir?
55039For how long?"
55039Had Uncle Simon added burglary to knocker- snatching, broken into a jeweller''s and disposed of his takings to a"fence,"committed robbery?
55039Had breakfast?"
55039Have n''t the girls no hands?
55039Have they kicked you out?"
55039Have you ever lived in the country?
55039Have you had breakfast?"
55039Have you talked to him much?"
55039He questioned himself, asking himself were he a cad or not, had he trifled with Julia?
55039He seemed to have accepted Mudd now as a personal servant-- hired when?
55039How can I stop it?"
55039How can she be happy with a chap like that, without a cent to his name and a pile of debts?
55039How did you manage to get home?"
55039How is he?"
55039I have n''t a touch of the jim- jams, have I, Higgs?"
55039I humoured him, did I not, Cerise?
55039I mean in mind and conduct?"
55039I mean to say, it''s absurd.... What were you saying?
55039I say, old thing, where do you hang out in London?"
55039If it was n''t an optical illusion I want to know what has become of the old gentleman?
55039Infernal, is n''t it?"
55039Is Mr. Pettigrew here or is he not?
55039Is it not like a little tale of Madame Perichon''s or a little play of Monsieur Baree?
55039Is that the car, Higgs?
55039Is this Hastings or Bognor?
55039Leaning forward in his chair, he suddenly asked, apropos of nothing:"Did you ever hear of a disease called Lethmann''s disease?"
55039Look here, Julia----""Yes?"
55039Might he not just have come in as in one of those?
55039Mr. Robert, what are you doing here?"
55039Mudd?"
55039No, of course he was n''t ill, never better in his life; what on earth put that idea into Brownlow''s head?
55039Now, tell me, when you came to, you could remember all your actions in Paris; how far back did that memory go?"
55039Oppenshaw,"wheeling suddenly,"is nothing to be done?
55039Poor Monsieur Pattigrew----""He ai n''t dead?"
55039Robert?"
55039Robert?"
55039Said Cerise:"Shall I tell you a little secret?"
55039Shine, do n''t they?
55039Should she die, what would happen to Cerise?
55039Staying in the Charing Cross''Otel?
55039Suppose this disease were to recur often and at shorter intervals, or become chronic?
55039That affair of last year, when Simon had departed and returned in new strange clothes, might have been the courting, this the real thing?
55039The locked portmanteau might contain it, but where was the key?
55039Then to Tidd,"You see how I am placed?"
55039Then, after a pause:"Will you telephone to his house to see?"
55039Then, heartened by this evidently good opinion of her work, she had gone to another publisher?
55039This is it, sir-- one guinea-- shines like silver, do n''t it?
55039Was Simon ill?
55039Was she jesting with him or in earnest?
55039Was that an omen?
55039We caught her at the station, fortunately, just in time-- but how did you find out that you gave Mudd those instructions?"
55039Well, now, when you came to your old self in Paris, what did you do?"
55039Well, that was the third of May, and when and where do you think I found myself next?"
55039What are you doing to- day?"
55039What can have happened to him, Mudd?"
55039What had become of the money?
55039What is his conversation like?
55039What made him, in his state, able to remember them?"
55039What made you bring him here, Mr. Brownlow-- now, of all times?"
55039What the devil was the matter with them all?
55039What time do you start?"
55039What were you like when you were young?
55039What''s her address?"
55039What''s his name?"
55039What''s the matter with London?"
55039What''s the number of his room?"
55039What''s the time?"
55039What''ve you been doin''?"
55039What_ you_ say, old chap?"
55039When you came to, did you remember your actions during the month of aberration?"
55039Where am I?
55039Where does it lay?"
55039Where would we be then?
55039Which Evans''s?
55039Who told you about it?"
55039Why not make a story about-- Billy?
55039Why not say so?"
55039Will you convey to him our deepest respects and our thanks?"
55039Will you not take a seat, monsieur?"
55039Will you, or wo n''t you?"
55039Wo n''t you come in?"
55039Y''know the Ditchin''ham road?"
55039You do n''t mind my smoking?"
55039You have heard of double personalities, of which a great deal of nonsense has been written?
55039You said you sent her those flowers?
55039You will get all profits if it is a success, understand me?"
55039You''ve never seen Randall drive?
55039do you call this stuff asparagus?
55039if Cerise could have seen the Marquis de Grandcourt now!--or was it Madame who raised him to the peerage of France?
55039maman?
55039said Bobby,"do you think I can add literary work to my other distractions?
19175''How''s the professor?''
19175A hint?
19175A whole month, is n''t it?
19175A youngish man?
19175About what?
19175About?
19175Am I--faintly--"nothing to you?
19175And Miss Wynter, will you suit_ her_ well enough?
19175And all you said?
19175And she?
19175And yet-- yet you would_ like_ to dance?
19175And you are her guardian, you know, and----"Why not propose to her yourself?
19175And you are my guardian, are n''t you?
19175And----?
19175Anything new?
19175Are you sure?
19175Are you_ sure_?
19175At her house?
19175At her receptions?
19175At this hour?
19175But I may depend upon you--anxiously--"you will do what you can for me?"
19175But a concert_ is n''t_ like a ball, is it?
19175But what about tea?
19175But what is that?
19175But-- it_ is_ soon, is n''t it?
19175Can you ask?
19175Clothes?
19175Decision?
19175Did he himself? 19175 Do n''t you?"
19175Do you forbid me then to lay before you-- this name-- that I----?
19175Do you imagine I do not know why you plead his cause so eloquently? 19175 Do you imagine that I----?"
19175Do you know that you and Aunt Jane are the only two people in all London whom I know?
19175Do you mean,says the girl,"that I have broken yours?
19175Do you think I am not saying all this for your good? 19175 Do you think I want to marry your brother?"
19175Do you think I want you to_ lie_ to me? 19175 Do you think one should go_ nowhere_ when wearing black?"
19175Do you think so?
19175Do you think that one should not go to a concert when----"Yes?
19175Do? 19175 Eh?"
19175Eh?
19175Eh?
19175Have you come to see me or Aunt Jane?
19175Have you no relation to whom you could send her?
19175Have you read''Alas?'' 19175 Have you then forgotten?"
19175He thinks so, too, of course?
19175How could you hurt her so? 19175 How do you know?"
19175I am to propose to her-- I?
19175I said,''Is Mr. Curzon at home?'' 19175 I see no reason why she should n''t be,"says the professor calmly-- is there a faint suspicion of hauteur in his tone?
19175I think,anxiously,"you once told me you did not care for Sir----""Did I?
19175I wonder when that would be?
19175If you spoke to her again, when she was in a better temper, do n''t you think she would let you take me to the theatre some night?
19175If you will not dance with me, then may I hope that you will give me the few too short moments that this waltz may contain?
19175Impossible to leave Aunt Jane?
19175Is he?
19175Is it-- I am not much in your or her world, you know-- is it a very marked thing for a girl to sit out three waltzes with one man?
19175Is it?
19175It is about her?
19175It is what is_ she_ going to do?
19175It is you; Mr. Curzon, is it not?
19175Kind? 19175 Like what?"
19175Mad? 19175 Married?"
19175May I ask how you knew I_ had_ a ward?
19175May I ask, Mr. Curzon,says she, with great dignity and more temper,"what may be the meanin''of all this?"
19175May I?
19175Mr. Curzon''s? 19175 Must you go?
19175Nobody?
19175Not come again? 19175 Not till then?
19175Of what else?
19175Only----"Only?
19175Ought I not?
19175Perpetua-- is it not?
19175Seen what?
19175Shall I order them to stop?
19175Shall I take you to Gwendoline?
19175Shall I take you to Lady Baring?
19175Shall I take you to Lady Baring?
19175She? 19175 She?"
19175Should I not? 19175 Should one?"
19175Some old lady? 19175 Students?"
19175Tell me?
19175Than enjoyment?
19175There''s lots of room here, is n''t there?
19175They said----"_ What?_demands the professor, almost fiercely.
19175They''ll_ cut_ her, and they''ll cut me, and-- what the_ deuce_ did Wynter mean by leaving me his daughter? 19175 To plead his cause afresh?"
19175Was n''t it fortunate I found you?
19175We were talking of what?
19175Well,_ she_ is the point, is n''t she? 19175 Well?"
19175Were you going to cut me?
19175What are you going to tell me about him?
19175What d''ye mean, woman?
19175What do_ you_ mean, damn you?
19175What has a title got to do with esteem?--and what has esteem got to do with love?
19175What has happened?
19175What have_ I_ to do with it? 19175 What is it,"asks she,"that best part?"
19175What is it?
19175What is it?
19175What on earth am I to do with a girl of seventeen? 19175 What on earth has brought her here at all?"
19175What''s that?
19175What''s the matter with Mr. Hardinge,asks Perpetua,"that he ca n''t come here himself?
19175Where is she now?
19175Where''s your head, man? 19175 Who are_ you_?"
19175Who can tell the age of any man in this degenerate age? 19175 Who is it to whom you propose to marry Miss Wynter?"
19175Who opened the door for you?
19175Who told you that I hated you?
19175Who told you that?
19175Who was that, dear?
19175Who''s mad? 19175 Whose then?
19175Why ca n''t I?
19175Why do n''t you take her home again, back to the old aunt?
19175Why give me this terrible task? 19175 Why have you come to- day?"
19175Why not send her to your sister then?
19175Why not?
19175Why not?
19175Why should I not listen? 19175 Why should they not be?
19175Why that gesture, Mr. Curzon? 19175 Why?
19175Why? 19175 Why?"
19175Will Miss Wynter like_ her_?
19175Will she like Per----Miss Wynter?
19175Will you then_ compel_ me to marry him?
19175Wo n''t you sit down?
19175Would he?
19175Would that be nonsense?
19175Yes? 19175 Yes?
19175Yes? 19175 Yes?
19175Yes?
19175Yes?
19175Yes?
19175You are a_ rara avis_, do you know? 19175 You dismiss me?"
19175You do n''t like him?
19175You have nothing to say, then?
19175You have_ some_ friends surely?
19175You know my sister, then?
19175You mean that he----You,_ too_, think that he dislikes me?
19175You mean to say you really_ like_ Perpetua?
19175You mean----?
19175You mean----?
19175You mean----?
19175You mean----?
19175You mean?
19175You refuse then to go with me in this matter?
19175You teach them? 19175 You think I shall lead him a very bad life?"
19175You think then-- that I-- am a trouble to him?
19175You want me to deny it then?
19175You want me?
19175You were saying?
19175You will come soon again?
19175You will forward my cause rather than your brother''s, will you not? 19175 You--_you_ would n''t ask her for something, would you, Hardinge?"
19175Your ward? 19175 _ Always_ studying?"
19175_ I_ am?
19175_ No?_ Why?
19175_ No?_ Why?
19175_ Was_ it nothing? 19175 _ What?_"says the professor aghast.
19175_ Why_ do n''t you like your Aunt Jane?
19175_ Your_ mission?
19175''Say a good word for me''to her; that is the old way of putting it, is n''t it?
19175A poor, sad outcast like me?"
19175After all, what can the bravest man do with an angry old woman, except to get away from her as quickly as possible?
19175An aunt, for example?"
19175An''where to, sir, dear?
19175An''who is to give away the poor dear, sir, askin''yer pardon?"
19175And I shall grow more, sha n''t I?"
19175And bad people,"slowly,"are not known, are they?"
19175And is this to be the end of it all?
19175And look here, Curzon, why are n''t you of our world?
19175And what was it you said of Mr. Hardinge?
19175And where is she to sleep?
19175And why do you call yourself an outcast?
19175And will Hardinge be here presently to plead his cause in person?
19175And yet again, should a little brilliant face like that know sadness?
19175And you?"
19175And----?"
19175And_ why_?"
19175Another suitor, maybe?
19175Are his social duties now so numerous that he has forgotten he has a ward?
19175Are they_ all_ new-- or some sweet, fresher memory of a picture well beloved?
19175Are you going now, Mr. Curzon?
19175Are you thinking of reserving the prize for your own special benefit?
19175Because you order me?"
19175Besides, you forget Sir Hastings is Lady Baring''s brother too, and-- you have n''t anything to say against_ her_, have you?
19175But have ye thought o''yer clothes, me dear?"
19175But in the meantime, whilst sitting on a milestone of life waiting for that grim friend, what is to be done with her?
19175But little girls like you are good to everyone, are you not?
19175But that---- Why not call Thursday-- or even Wednesday?
19175But will she?"
19175But, after all, how could she know that?
19175Come now, who was it?"
19175D''ye see?
19175Deuced pretty little girl, is n''t she, and good form too?
19175Did I not_ tell_ you you were in a hurry to get rid of me?"
19175Did ever anxious student ask him question so difficult of answer as this one-- that this small maiden has propounded?
19175Did you notice nothing in his manner last night?"
19175Do n''t I know you?
19175Do you imagine I have not been thinking?"
19175Do you remember the talk we had that last day you came to Aunt Jane''s?
19175Do you think I ca n''t see through your game?"
19175Do you think you could make it out whilst I count forty?"
19175Do-- do_ you_ think----?"
19175Does he think----?
19175Eh?
19175Going_ so soon_?"
19175Had she-- had she-- what_ was_ it he meant?
19175Hardinge pauses, and turns to the professor--"Has she?"
19175Hardinge,"desperately,"what_ am_ I to do?"
19175Hardinge?"
19175Has he been kind to old Wynter''s child?
19175Has he been true to his trust?
19175Has not the great world claimed her now, and presently will she not belong to it?
19175Has she no common- sense-- no knowledge of the things that be?
19175Have n''t I told you?
19175Have you noticed it?
19175He has forgotten youth for many days, has youth in revenge forgotten him?
19175He-- he does n''t like me, I''m afraid?"
19175He----""Why think of him?"
19175He_ is_ your brother, is n''t he?
19175Her dead father left her to my care, and I am to sell her to you, that her money may redeem our name from the slough into which_ you_ have flung it?
19175His wrathful eyes are on his brother rather than on her when he says:"You are tired?"
19175How could I put it all on paper?
19175How is it I have never seen you there?"
19175How kind?"
19175How many to- morrows is she going to remain here?
19175How soon must this unpleasant interview take place?
19175I ca n''t explain it to her-- you-- don''t think_ you_ could, do you, Hardinge?"
19175I can lend you some books, easy ones at first, and----""I could n''t read_ your_ books,"says she;"and-- you have n''t any novels, I suppose?"
19175I do n''t like Perpetua, do you?"
19175I have known girls do it often, but she is not like other girls, is she?"
19175I mean nothing offensive--_so far_--sir, but it behoves me to be careful, and behind those glasses, who can tell what demon lurks?
19175I suppose you know you have the best man in all the world for your guardian?
19175I suppose,"wistfully,"you could n''t call me that?"
19175In_ this_ the professor''s troublesome ward?
19175Is enjoyment nothing to you?"
19175Is he angry?
19175Is innocence to be sacrificed that vice may ride abroad again?
19175Is it child or woman, this fair vision?
19175Is it possible she is going to ask him to call her by that familiar-- almost affectionate-- name?
19175Is n''t it?"
19175Is she any longer his?
19175Is that her name?
19175Is that small action of his unseen?
19175Is this really the professor?
19175Is_ this_ the big, strong, noisy girl of his imaginings?
19175It is an intent gaze that seldom wanders, and in truth why should it?
19175It is true, is it not?"
19175It''s a little rude of you, do you know?
19175LAVIOLETTE& NELSON, Druggists,_ AGENTS OF FRENCH PATENTS._ 16O5 Notre Dame St.***** Have you Teeth?
19175Miss Wynter?"
19175Mrs. Mulcahy he can trust, but she-- awful thought-- will she trust him?
19175Need I say what follows?
19175Not to thim rascally sthudents, I do thrust?"
19175Nothing serious, I hope?"
19175Perhaps, who knows?
19175See?"
19175See?"
19175Shall he ever have the courage to find out?
19175She had come to him because she_ wanted_ him, because he might be of use to her, not because.... What had Hastings been saying to her?
19175She is at this moment asking herself, who is it he is like?
19175She might so easily have made it your lip-- or your nose-- or----""_ What_ is there in Everett''s cupboard besides the beer?"
19175She reveres you, even if----""If what?"
19175She?
19175Simple loneliness, or misery downright?
19175Sometimes?"
19175Surely that was something?
19175The bouncing creature with untidy hair, and her clothes pitchforked on to her?
19175The professor hesitates a moment, and then:"What do you want me to do?"
19175Then why do n''t you take me away from it?"
19175They-- surely they will call; they will see you-- they----""Will take an overwhelming fancy to me?
19175This little Australian girl, is she_ laughing_ at him?
19175This lovely child has created it, yet why, or how?
19175To call upon this ward of his is a thing that must be done sooner or later, then why not sooner?
19175Too warm?
19175Was ever guardian mastered by a ward before?
19175We all hate ourselves sometimes, do n''t we?"
19175Well, Thaddeus-- hardly expected to see_ me_ here, eh?"
19175Well, we are together now, are n''t we?
19175Well-- haven''t you a cousin then?--or something?"
19175Well-- what else?"
19175Well----"What do_ you_ think?"
19175What I am to do?"
19175What a peculiar one?
19175What are his thoughts of her at all hours, all seasons?
19175What are you going to do, eh?"
19175What are you then?"
19175What day is this?
19175What do you mean?"
19175What had she meant-- what?
19175What has he_ done_ that the Fates should so visit him?
19175What have I done then that yours should be broken?"
19175What if he should make a mistake?
19175What is his name?"
19175What is it?
19175What is she like?"
19175What is she thinking now?
19175What is she to me?"
19175What is the name of this man you want to marry?"
19175What more would you be?"
19175What of your father?"
19175What was it--_what_?
19175What was the sum?
19175What will the landlady say?
19175What''s that in your glass?"
19175What,"throwing out her hands expressively,"is a guardian_ for_, if it is n''t to take care of people?"
19175What?"
19175What_ are_ they?
19175Where are the glasses that until now hid his eyes?
19175Where is any other thing as good to look at as this small, fair creature, with the eyes, and the hair, and the lips that belong to her?
19175Where is that old, old coat?
19175Who could harm the likes of ye?
19175Who was the_ first_ person she has expected?
19175Who''d live with a woman like that?
19175Who_ is_ Curzon?
19175Who_ is_ he like?
19175Why go so soon?"
19175Why indeed?
19175Why not at once?
19175Why on earth had n''t he read it_ first_?
19175Why should you malign yourself like that?
19175Why should you mind that awful old woman?"
19175Why,"coming closer to him and pressing five soft little fingers in an almost feverish fashion upon his arm,"why ca n''t_ you_ take me away?"
19175Why?"
19175Why?"
19175Will you see to_ that_?"
19175You ca n''t stay in this house, d''ye_ hear_?
19175You could be good to even a scapegrace, eh?
19175You remember that last evening?"
19175You think, then, that last night Miss Wynter gave you-- encouragement?"
19175You understand that, do n''t you?"
19175You were going to say----?"
19175You would-- wouldn''t you?"
19175You-- you could n''t let me make you a cup of tea, could you?
19175You--"doubtfully, and mindful of his last speech--"Haven''t you seen him?"
19175You_ will_ help me, wo n''t you?
19175Yours?
19175_ Did_ she raise her hands as if to hold them out to him?
19175_ My_ name now?
19175_ You_ think of my happiness?"
19175_ Yours?_ Have I been so bad as that?
19175_ Yours?_ Have I been so bad as that?
19175_ why_ did n''t poor papa send me to live with you?"
19175_"We?
19175and what is age after all?
19175asks she, with admirable courage,"of names, was it not?
19175cries she, flashing round at him,"will you deny that I have been a trouble to you, that you would have been thankful had you never heard my name?"
19175do you think me only a silly useless creature?
19175he can laugh then?"
19175was I not right?
19175what is there to tell you?
19175with a sudden lovely smile,"you, Sir Hastings?"
20979''Injury''? 20979 ''Sneeze''?
20979A Ballet?
20979A what?
20979A_ what_?
20979Ah, Brother Copas? 20979 Ah, but suppose our young men will not?
20979Ah?
20979Alberic de Blanchminster?
20979Am I to take this for an invitation?
20979And Mr. Isidore does n''t let the grass grow under his feet, hey?
20979And about Bonaday? 20979 And again-- as nowadays interpreted by whom?
20979And does he keep a dwarf, same as they used to?
20979And how many to- day, Brother Manby?
20979And is King Alfred really up there?--the one that burnt the cakes?-- and if so, which?
20979And so you really think we Protestants are going to win?
20979And the date--1643? 20979 And why not mine, sir?"
20979And you ask no further question?
20979Another?
20979Are we all to get cold dinner when these two old fools have done wrangling?
20979Are you going to lock me in?
20979Are you ill? 20979 Are you related to her?"
20979Are you telling me that you spent the forenoon drinking beer in the porter''s lodge?
20979Aye? 20979 Brother Copas assures me--""But is Brother Copas an entirely credible witness?"
20979Brother Copas-- you were saying--?
20979Brother Copas--?
20979But Windsor Castle is a mighty big place?
20979But how does he do it?
20979But how,asked Brother Masseo,"can one speak of treasure when there is such lack of all things needful?
20979But suppose that I have been thinking about it already-- thinking about it hard?
20979But surely you''ve heard?
20979But up against Colt-- what''s the use? 20979 But what are you saying about supper?"
20979But what is it all about?
20979But what on earth does it all mean?
20979But why in the world? 20979 But why, dear?"
20979But why?
20979But why?
20979But, uncle, you wo n''t mind my asking a question? 20979 But- but how do we manage when it''s bedtime?"
20979Can not you get to sleep, little maid?
20979Canaries?
20979Clerihew said Manby was in the kitchen, did he? 20979 Colt?
20979Come, come-- as to a friend, if you wo n''t as to a priest? 20979 Could n''t we make new clothes for Timmy, and surprise him with them at the same time?"
20979Daddy, why_ do n''t_ you write a play?
20979Did I not tell you I have been thinking about all this? 20979 Did I say that?
20979Did I show myself so reluctant?
20979Did it?
20979Did n''t a certain small missy make an appointment with me to be shown the laundry and its wonders? 20979 Did the child tell you all this?"
20979Did you ever know me spread tales?
20979Did you ever know your friend Tarbolt patronise this institution before?
20979Did you tell her?
20979Did you, too, find me somewhat prolix this afternoon?
20979Do people blow upon organs?
20979Do they whip girls?
20979Do you know, Uncle Copas,she asked suddenly,"why I have dragged you out here to- day?"
20979Do you mean to say that you have simply ignored it?
20979Does daddy live there? 20979 Does it matter?"
20979Eh, Master?
20979Eh? 20979 Eh?
20979Eh? 20979 Eh?
20979Eh? 20979 Eh?
20979Eh? 20979 Eh?
20979Eh? 20979 Eh?"
20979Eh?
20979For a look at the dear Bishop, think you?
20979Good men or bad,persisted Mr. Simeon,"what_ can_ the Christian religion do but make them both better?"
20979Had he so poor a trust in me, after these years?
20979Has he offered to pay you?
20979Have I?
20979Have n''t anything on your conscience, hey?
20979Have n''t you ever felt you''ve got something inside, and how awful good it is to confess and get it off your chest?
20979He ruled the boys by kindness, I suppose?
20979Hey?
20979Hey?
20979Hey?
20979Hey?
20979Home-- in an hour?
20979Home?
20979Honest Indian? 20979 How can you gainsay it-- nay, or begin to doubt it-- if only you will be honest with yourself?
20979How can you say such a thing?
20979How did you find that out?
20979I beg your pardon, sir?
20979I beg your pardon--?
20979I do n''t understand,he said;"but if you believe so little in punishment, why are we proposing to punish Corona?"
20979I hope, sir,was his rebuke,"I have not wholly forfeited the title of Brother?"
20979I know more than you guessed, eh? 20979 I wonder why?"
20979I''m English-- amn''t I, Daddy?
20979I-- I beg your pardon, my dear?
20979In what way?
20979Indecent?
20979Indeed?
20979Indeed?
20979Is it peace, you two?
20979Is it possible that Bamberger has become twins? 20979 Is it possible, sir, that you recognised the style?
20979Is it true what I hear?
20979Is that a cabbage you are hiding under your gown?
20979Is that indeed the reason?
20979Is that still going forward?
20979Is that what you were translating?
20979Is that you, Daddy?
20979Is that you, daddy?
20979It was enough, surely? 20979 It was_ zere_ lay ze future of Englandt,_ hein_?"
20979Leave you?
20979Lord, what shall I sing?
20979Master, can you doubt?
20979May I be allowed to compare the two letters? 20979 May I burn it?"
20979No offence, no offence, I hope?
20979No-- o. I suppose they look after these things in America?
20979No?
20979Now I wonder how she gets at that?
20979Now what in the world can he want?
20979Pardon me, but he has some reason, of course?
20979Prejudice?
20979See that train just pulling out of the station? 20979 Seems?"
20979Shall we?
20979So I said,she went on,"that I came from America too, and it was a long way, and please would he hurry up with the bread and beer?
20979So? 20979 So?
20979Sobscribtions? 20979 Some affair of discipline?"
20979Sure? 20979 Surely not about Bonaday, Master?"
20979Surely you must have observed my elation?
20979Talk about what?
20979That was a pretty good one, eh?
20979That''s pretty well calculated to annoy, eh? 20979 The Greycoats?"
20979The Greycoats?
20979The countersign?
20979The deuce you do?
20979The facts, if you please?
20979The moral?
20979Then what was his secret?
20979Then why the devil start by offending that old chap as you did?
20979Then you_ have_ made some investigations? 20979 Timothy?"
20979Tired, child? 20979 Too serious, perhaps?"
20979Tut-- tut-- my good Warboise, what''s the meaning of this?
20979Uncle Copas, whatever are you doing?
20979Warboise? 20979 Was that all?"
20979Well, and suppose I am?
20979Well, but why?
20979Well?
20979Whad did I not tell you?
20979What devil''s game have you been playing here?
20979What does that mean?
20979What folly is this,he mused,"that I, who have always scoffed at translations, sit here trying to translate this most untranslatable thing?
20979What if he refuses?
20979What is it?
20979What should such creatures as I do, crawling between earth and heaven?
20979What then?
20979What would you do?
20979What''s this? 20979 Whatever was Brother Warboise doing just now?"
20979When is your birthday, little one?
20979Where are you going this afternoon?
20979Where is the child?
20979Who is he?
20979Why can not he be always the fool he looks?
20979Why do I translate this stuff? 20979 Why exclude priests?"
20979Why not let me help you?
20979Why should Bonaday back out?
20979Why should I have troubled to tell? 20979 Why should it not last?"
20979Why should n''t they attract more?
20979Why should you? 20979 Why, is he dangerous?"
20979Why, what else was I arguing?
20979Why, what has Corona been doing?
20979Why, what is the matter, little maid? 20979 Why, who should know better?
20979Why?
20979Why?
20979Why?
20979Wonderful how it seems to link us up, eh?
20979Would I not? 20979 Would he like me to learn it?"
20979Would snails--"Eh?
20979Yes, Uncle Copas?
20979Yet you wrote out and signed the Petition, and, if I may hazard again, composed it?
20979You are learning bad temper from a book?
20979You are not telling me a fib, I hope, about keeping up a clear fire?
20979You are sure it will take but a few minutes?
20979You are sure the letter was written by a woman?
20979You consent to the truce, at any rate?
20979You disapprove of National Service?
20979You guess, no doubt, why I sent for you?
20979You haf old men dressed like_ zat_? 20979 You have some message for me?"
20979You have spoken to Warboise?
20979You have spoken to the Master?
20979You make nothing of it, then?
20979You think it has spoilt the Master''s dinner?
20979You want me to make a change of garments for him?
20979You wasn''sarchin''for flowers, was you? 20979 You would risk appearances?"
20979You''ll excuse me? 20979 You''re_ sure_?"
20979You''ve not heard? 20979 _ Amavit?_""Perfect, active, third person singular--''he has loved.''"
20979_ Hein_? 20979 _ Nunquam?_""''Never''--I know that too."
20979_ Quare fremuerunt gentes?_intone the choristers''voices below, Mr. Simeon''s weak but accurate tenor among them.
20979_ Which_ Christian religion? 20979 _ You?_""Your accent is so little flattering, Warboise, that I hardly dare to add the condition.
20979os meden echontes-- my good Simeon, is it possible? 20979 ''So- and- so,''did you say? 20979 ''Why was not Brother Bonaday among the signatories?'' 20979 ''_ Aloft and established in blue_''--is that better?
20979''_ Bloody end to the Pope!_''is it not?"
20979--"Which you are not at liberty to tell me?"
20979--and when I told him, he said,''Ow''s anyone to know_ that_?''
20979--with a start--"Is it Simeon?
20979?''"
20979A few realistic pictures of the diversions of the upper classes--""Hawking was one, I believe?"
20979A fool like Colt-- for at bottom, between ourselves, Colt is a fool-- says''Reformation?
20979Ah, loitering Summer, say when For me shall be broken the charm, that I chirp with the swallow again?
20979All goodly sport For my comfort Who shall me let?"
20979All he said was that if these old walls could speak what a tale might they not unfold?
20979Am I mistaken?"
20979An eccentric?"
20979And Maseppa was a man, was n''t he?"
20979And do you think, Mr. Simeon, any man in England could for ever resist that appeal?
20979And if not for Rome, for what in the world_ are_ you heading?''
20979And is he so very old, then?"
20979And is n''t this Tuesday-- ironing day?"
20979And now shall we talk of something else?"
20979And she, meanwhile?
20979And what( do you suppose) did Corona seek in the kitchen garden?
20979And where''s his backing?
20979And you really do n''t want to leave us, just yet?"
20979And you, Mr. Isidore?
20979Anglican or Nonconformist?
20979Are you disengaged?"
20979Are you fetching me to Daddy?"
20979Bless me, is that the quarter chiming?
20979Brother-- er-- Copas?
20979But I never told you that-- did I?"
20979But I see at what you are driving-- that we of St. Hospital are too old to taste its benefit?
20979But I suppose that conveys nothing to you?"
20979But before I try to answer it, may I deal with a sentence or two which( pardon me) seemed less relevant than the rest?
20979But if you''ve been looking after yourself properly, why did you sneeze just now?"
20979But is n''t that Warboise coming along the path?
20979But it was all just like_ Jorinda and Jorindel_; and if she''s not a witch, and does n''t turn them into canaries, why does she keep all those cages?"
20979But one night-- you know that big stone by the gate of the home- park?
20979But ought we to be too particular when the cause is at stake, and heaven knows how soon the Germans will be invading us?"
20979But since you have freely parted with it, may I keep it?
20979But what was your question?"
20979But where do we begin?"
20979But who''s the tall one next to him?
20979But why are you puckering up your eyes so?"
20979But why ask such a question?"
20979But you are responsible for Timothy in a way, are n''t you?"
20979But-- disappointed, are you?"
20979But-- excuse me-- for what purpose are these two parcelling out the Castle Meadow?"
20979By what boat is she coming?"
20979Can this world show the like of it, for comfort of eye and heart?
20979Can you wonder that he loses his temper, sometimes inelegantly?
20979Catholic or Protestant?
20979Colt in regimentals?
20979Colt?"
20979Could ever an Anglo- Saxon have built_ that_, think you?"
20979D''ye reckon Colt has told him about Warboise?"
20979Did n''t I tell you I was wasting my time?
20979Did you know that?"
20979Did you leave the child with her father?"
20979Did you, now?"
20979Do I know him?"
20979Do I read in your eye that you desire a similar literary restraint in your Episode of King Hal?"
20979Do you believe, for example, that an unchristened infant goes wailing forth from the threshold of life into an eternity of punishment?
20979Do you mean it seriously-- that our Brethren, just now, are not dwelling in concord?"
20979Do you suppose that this nation will ever forget Hounslow Heath?"
20979Does Nurse Turner, by the way, happen to start her W''s with a small curly flourish?"
20979Does a girl need to learn much beyond that?
20979Does ever anyone-- did she, your own daughter, for example-- come into this world fortuitously?"
20979Does it contain a man whose ancestor ever saw Agincourt?
20979Eh, Master?
20979Eh, Master?--these old pensioners of yours-- in a procession?
20979Eh, Mrs. Dasent?
20979Eh, ma''am?"
20979Eh?
20979Even if I learnt cookery and let down my skirts, who''s going to engage me for a cook- general at_ my_ time of life?"
20979Fine rugged fiddlestick-- have you ever read_ Beowulf_?"
20979For the moment you''ll allow it to be every man''s duty, as a citizen, to carry arms for his country?"
20979For what else am I here but to helb you to increase it?"
20979For where but in the story of Merchester can be found the earliest inspiration of those countless deeds which won the Empire?"
20979For why?
20979Funny sort of accident, hey?
20979Has it occurred to you that they were never so phenomenally active in building and rebuilding as on the very eve of the Reformation crash?
20979Have you found it profitable in later life?"
20979Have you never observed, my good Bonaday, how fatally miracles come home to roost?
20979Have you told him?"
20979He began by asking''Well, and oo''s child might_ you_ be?''
20979How can so foul a thing confer any right?"
20979However do they find the time for it?"
20979I beg your pardon?"
20979I do n''t think it''s safe for me to go to school any more, do you?"
20979I saw one at Warwick Castle-- was it last year or the year before?
20979I should have said, Whose authoritative interpretation of Christ''s authority?"
20979I suppose I ought not to show you this; the fire is its only proper receptacle--""Poison?"
20979I will haf her and no ozzer-- you onderstandt?"
20979If I may ascort you?
20979If by any chance we could, in English, find the right way to translate Homer, why should we waste it on translating him?
20979If fire must purify, If tribulation search thee, shall I plead_ Not in my time, O Lord_?
20979Impulse?
20979Is it now?''
20979Is it to the Archbishop of Canterbury?
20979Is n''t it time to speak up, when a rogue''s caught cheating?"
20979Is that all, Uncle Copas?"
20979Is that the sort of thing--''Fair Rosamund goes a- hawking with King, er, Whoever- he- was?''"
20979It does not rankle, I hope?"
20979It says-- this ignorant herd--''If these fellows are not heading for Rome, then where the dickens_ are_ they heading?''
20979Jonah spends three days and three nights in the whale''s belly-- why?
20979Just conceivable, hey?
20979Late for what?"
20979Make room, Woolcombe, if you please, and take your elbow out of my ribs-- don''t I know the old trick?
20979Master, do you believe in miracles?"
20979May I ask what part you have chosen?"
20979Mayor?"
20979Mediaeval he looks, does n''t he?
20979More abominations?"
20979My book?
20979Nor grandparent?"
20979Nothing wrong, I hope?"
20979Oh, I know what you would say if your politeness allowed:''Why, if bad temper''s my object, did I leave the Liberal Club and come here?''
20979Or again:"Am I a dog to be bozzered by your General Committees or your influential batrons?
20979Or to your own Diocesan?"
20979Or why, if it aims to be unworldly, must it always overshoot its mark and be merely inhuman?"
20979Or would you,"added this wise woman,"just like to sit still and look out of window and take it all in for a while?"
20979Or, again, supposing that she holds out until he has undressed and gone to bed?
20979Paralysed, I think you said?
20979Pardon my curiosity: but is that also a cabbage you are hiding under your cloak?"
20979Shall I run and call them up at the Nunnery?"
20979Shall I tell you what I told the Master?
20979Shall we glance over his screed?
20979Shall we say a prayer together, Brother?"
20979Simeon, which was I?"
20979Simeon?"
20979So long as I have to account for the discipline of St. Hospital I can scarcely ignore such a scandal, hey?"
20979So the ignorant herd comes back on you with two questions, which in effect are one:''If not mere anarchists, what authority own you?
20979So you called on him with it and bullied him into another attack of_ angina pectoris_?
20979Some thousands of times his eyes had rested on it, yet how could it ever stale?
20979Some were in Beauchamp gowns and others in Blanchminster-- but all children, you understand?
20979The Bishop showed it to you, then?"
20979The Master?
20979The child must not be suffered to grow up into a termagant-- you will admit that, I hope?
20979The hereditary-- principle, did you say?
20979The meeting was held every four years; and what d''ye suppose was the top prize, answerin'', as you may say, to the Championship Cup?
20979The question is, Which of us will undertake it?
20979Then who can say But mirth and play Is best of all?"
20979Through whose mouth?
20979To the King?--Parliament?--the Court of Arches, or any other Court?
20979To whom, may I ask?"
20979To whom, then, do you appeal?
20979Warboise?
20979Was it he that dropped the hint to Nurse Branscome?
20979Was not this, or something like it, in your mind, sir?"
20979We are old poor men-- what business have we, any longer, with aspiration?
20979We must run no risks, Nurse, after his illness?"
20979We will further suppose a Conservative Government in power, and confronted with a devastating strike-- shall we say a railwaymen''s strike?
20979Well, now, why not tell me the whole truth?"
20979Well, where do we begin?"
20979Well?"
20979Whad is your name?"
20979What brings you back here at this hour?
20979What could one do with a dear old gentleman who, when informed of the latest, most dangerous promotion to a bishopric, but responded with"Eh?
20979What do you say, ladies?"
20979What does it matter?
20979What flame can he shoot without arrow or bow?''
20979What is it all about, Uncle Copas?"
20979What is it?"
20979What more easy than to call out one- half of the strikers on service and oblige them, under pain of treason, to coerce the other half?
20979What part is the humbug sustaining, that so depends on the weather?"
20979What the devil has it to do with the claims of old descent?
20979What was she but a child?
20979What''s it going to be?"
20979What''s the child''s name, by the by?
20979What''s the effect, upon any Diocesan Conference?
20979What''s the sense of asking to go to heaven when you do n''t particularly want to?"
20979What''s your idea?"
20979Where is Warboise, by the way?"
20979Where now were all their emotions?
20979While if I hide it from him, and he grants the favour, and then next day or the day after I declare for Warboise, it will look like treachery, eh?"
20979Who has been frightening you?"
20979Who is it?
20979Who is this-- er, what- d''-ye- call- him?
20979Who''s the man, anywhere, to take you by the scruff of the neck and chastise you for an error?"
20979Whose, then, do you accept?"
20979Why again?
20979Why are you studying Liddell and Scott, by the way?"
20979Why could not these young men leave old men alone?
20979Why did n''t you remind me?"
20979Why did you not tell me all this to begin with?"
20979Why had he not bethought him to cite Caedmon, at any rate, against that sweeping disparagement?
20979Why should she be afraid of this comic little man?
20979Why this haste, then, in passing given points?
20979Why, but for the sake of a child who will never see it-- who if she read it, would not understand a word?"
20979Why, what in the world are you doing-- at this hour-- and here, of all places?"
20979Why- ever did n''t we think of it before?"
20979Why?"
20979Will the Master consent to this?"
20979Will you bid him come closer, Mr. Major, zat I may study ze costume in its detail?"
20979Will you dare to use these arguments to the Master, for instance?"
20979Will you forgive me, Master, if I repeat very respectfully the suggestion I made at the beginning?
20979Will you show me the letter?"
20979With what result?"
20979Within a week"Are you Pageantising?"
20979Wo n''t you give me that on your plate?"
20979Would you mind drawing back that curtain?
20979Yet I should have thought that even in age it might bring comfort to some; and, if so, why should the others complain?"
20979Yet is my plea so irrelevant?
20979You are not afraid of me,_ hein_?"
20979You are not the child''s parent, you say?
20979You deny the supreme authority of the Pope?
20979You do n''t happen to know if she''s been christened, by the way?"
20979You do n''t surely suppose that St. Hospital will continue to suffer this scandal in its midst?"
20979You have been a stranger to us for some weeks, unless I mistake?"
20979You notice how the swallows are flying, both high and low, Brother Woolcombe?
20979You ought to be ashamed of yourself, out of bed at-- what_ is_ the time?"
20979You overheard us, just now?"
20979You permit me?"
20979You remember the day I asked you to send him to me for a talk about the Petition?
20979You see the fix?
20979You take me?"
20979You wandt a Bageant,_ hein?_ Var''y well, I brovide it: It is I will mek a sogcess.
20979You''re not proposing to_ whip_ her?"
20979Zat old man in ze red purple_ poncho_--haf ze berformers already begon to aszemble zemselves?
20979_ Had Zimri peace, who slew his Master?_""I do not understand."
20979_ Hein_?
20979_ Qui?_""''Who.''"
20979_ What hast thou to do with peace?
20979_ Would_ you, by the way,_ very_ much object if I fetched Timothy out of the basket?
20979an appeal( shall I say?)
20979and thou shy?
20979and, excuse me, but was not that a fish over yonder?
20979but ca n''t you see him, Branny, with his long legs crossed?"
20979cry the maidens,''What trust is in Love Keeping holiday too, while he weareth his archery, tools of his trade?''
20979had_ he_ in all these years interpreted his rule by the letter, and not rather and constantly by the spirit?
20979is that all?
20979or did she herself scent the discovery and give over attending on you?"
20979or, in more condensed slang,"Do you Padge?"
20979said the Bishop, as they emerged upon the great quadrangle,"what in the world is going on yonder?"
20979the one Uncle Copas calls the Hepping- stone, and says the great Cardinal used to climb on to his horse from it when he went hunting?"
