5991You have got back much sooner than you expected, have you not?"
5991cried April, turning upon her with contempt,"do n''t you know they are_ lieber Gott''s_ little girls?"
27805--And how they''ve been and taken Toad Hall?
27805A shilling a leg?
27805Afraid?
27805And beyond the Wild Wood again?
27805And do you think,said the first swallow,"that the other call is not for us too, in its due season?
27805And that reminds me-- what''s that little door at the end of the passage? 27805 And what''s the weather like outside?
27805And where have you just come from?
27805And you really live by the river? 27805 Are n''t they-- aren''t they very_ nice_ people in there?"
27805Are you afraid?
27805Are you coming to help us, Toad?
27805Badger,said the Rat,"I feel like a brute; I wonder what_ you_ feel like?"
27805Bubbles? 27805 But do n''t you see what it_ means_, you-- you dull- witted animal?"
27805But is n''t it a bit dull at times?
27805But is n''t it very hot and stuffy, down in the-- hold, I think you call it?
27805But surely you do n''t_ do_ all that work yourself, ma''am?
27805But what I wanted to ask you was, wo n''t you take me to call on Mr. Toad? 27805 But what about Toad?"
27805But what do the words mean?
27805But what has become of them all?
27805But why should Otter choose to watch there?
27805But, no-- why should you? 27805 Clever?
27805Could n''t you ask him here-- dinner or something?
27805Could n''t you stop on for just this year?
27805Did I ever tell you that good story about Toad and the lock- keeper? 27805 Do you mean to tell me,"shouted the Rat, thumping with his little fist upon the table,"that you''ve heard nothing about the Stoats and Weasels?"
27805Do you really think so?
27805Do you suppose,asked the second one,"that you are the only living thing that craves with a hungry longing to hear the cuckoo''s note again?"
27805Do-- you-- mean-- to-- say,cried the excited Rat,"that this door- mat does n''t_ tell_ you anything?"
27805Fun?
27805Heard the news?
27805Heard what?
27805How are you to- day, old chap?
27805How many has he had?
27805How on earth, Badger,he said at last,"did you ever find time and strength to do all this?
27805I beg your pardon; what did you say, Rat?
27805I hope you''ve been very careful, Mole?
27805I wonder,he said to himself presently,"I wonder if this sort of car_ starts_ easily?"
27805Is it so nice as all that?
27805Is this, then, yet another of them?
27805Just you and the river, and no one else to pass a word with?
27805Let you steer?
27805Lost your money-- and ca n''t get home-- and got some kids, too, waiting for you, I dare say?
27805May n''t I sing them just one_ little_ song?
27805Nervous?
27805Nice? 27805 O yes, we know that,"explained a field- mouse rather shamefacedly;"but it''s always as well to be in good time, is n''t it?
27805O_ Moly_, how could you?
27805Old Toad?
27805Rat,he moaned,"how about your supper, you poor, cold, hungry, weary animal?
27805Shall we run away to- morrow morning, quite early--_very_ early-- and go back to our dear old hole on the river?
27805Smashes, or machines?
27805So you''re in the washing business, ma''am?
27805Stroll quietly down to Toad Hall?
27805Surely the brave Mr. Toad would n''t mind coming here by himself, would he?
27805That''s not so bad, is it, for a few minutes''work? 27805 That?
27805Then you do n''t promise,said the Badger,"never to touch a motor- car again?"
27805There, what did I tell you?
27805Toad Hall? 27805 Told you so, did n''t I?"
27805Well, and when they went at last, those people?
27805Well, suppose he is; why worry about it? 27805 Well, then, supposing we go and call on_ him_?"
27805Well,_ what_ did I tell you?
27805What are we to do with him?
27805What are you always nagging at Toad for?
27805What are you looking at?
27805What are you talking about? 27805 What did I tell you?"
27805What do you find to attract you in this poor drab little country?
27805What do you mean by talking like that to me? 27805 What hour?"
27805What is the meaning of this gross outrage? 27805 What lies over_ there_?"
27805What sort of games are you up to?
27805What''s a little wet to a Water Rat? 27805 What''s become of them, the dear fellows?
27805What''s inside it?
27805What''s the hurry? 27805 What''s the matter with his English?
27805What''s up, Ratty?
27805What, that child?
27805What, the Wild Wooders?
27805What?
27805What?
27805What_ have_ you found, Ratty?
27805Whatever are we doing? 27805 Where might your married daughter be living, ma''am?"
27805Wherever are you( hic) going to( hic), Ratty?
27805Who can tell?
27805Who comes there?
27805Why did n''t you invite me, Ratty?
27805Why do you ever come back, then, at all?
27805Why strive? 27805 Why, what do you mean?"
27805Why, what do you want a doctor for?
27805Why, where are you off to, Ratty?
27805Why, who_ should_ interfere with him?
27805Would you like to come over?
27805You do n''t seem to be having much luck to- day, do you? 27805 You see what it is?"
27805You stayed to supper, of course?
27805''Or any other time?''
27805''Run away?''
27805''Then why did n''t any of you_ do_ something?''
27805''Want any washing done to- day?''
27805''What,_ us_?''
27805All the same, how much might you be disposed to offer me for this beautiful young horse of mine?"
27805And are you_ very_ fond of washing?"
27805And how do you think I done it, Mole?
27805And it''s not such a very bad house, is it?
27805And then the food-- do you like shell- fish?
27805And what''s more, Mole''s going to stick to me and do as I do, are n''t you, Mole?"
27805Are n''t you ashamed of yourself?
27805As for the others-- you know that coach- house of his?
27805At last he said, very quietly and sympathetically,"What is it, old fellow?
27805At last he took refuge in the deep, dark hollow of an old beech tree, which offered shelter, concealment-- perhaps even safety, but who could tell?
27805Badger?"
27805Be a cripple, if you think it''s exciting; be a bankrupt, for a change, if you''ve set your mind on it: but why choose to be a convict?
27805But could n''t you fetch it along out here?
27805But first tell me how you are yourself, and the excellent Mole?"
27805But if you_ will_ be mixed up with them-- as you generally are, five minutes after you''ve started-- why_ steal_ them?
27805But meantime, how am I to get on with my washing?"
27805But supposing a fire breaks out-- where''s Toad?
27805Can we_ eat_ a door- mat?
27805Clerk, will you tell us, please, what is the very stiffest penalty we can impose for each of these offences?
27805Could he not squeeze under the seat of a carriage?
27805Did you stop there?
27805Do you mean to say you have n''t_ heard_?"
27805Do you suppose it''s any pleasure to me, for instance, to hear animals saying, as I go about, that I''m the chap that keeps company with gaol- birds?"
27805First, you are sorry for what you''ve done, and you see the folly of it all?"
27805Got any onions?"
27805He climbed down off his horse, and left it to graze, and sat down by the gipsy, and did sums on his fingers, and at last he said,"A shilling a leg?
27805How do you feel now, ma''am?"
27805How''s old Toad going on?"
27805How''s this passage of yours going to help us?"
27805I wonder what new fad he has taken up now?
27805I wonder which of us had better pack the luncheon- basket?"
27805If you''ve really nothing else on hand this morning, supposing we drop down the river together, and have a long day of it?"
27805Is that really you?"
27805Joy was hers in the morning!__ And then they heard the angels tell"Who were the first to cry_ Nowell_?
27805Just give me that ticket, will you, and I''ll send the money on to- morrow?
27805Lost your way in the snow, I suppose?"
27805Now what will you take?
27805Now, tell me, are there any shops open at this hour of the night?"
27805Now, wherever did you pick up those prints?
27805Of course, you will stop and take your mid- day meal with me?
27805Of_ Him_?
27805Or Kitchener?
27805Or sit on a door- mat and sledge home over the snow on it, you exasperating rodent?"
27805Or sleep under a door- mat?
27805Perhaps we badgers too, in our small way, helped a little-- who knows?
27805Poor Ratty did his best, by degrees, to explain things; but how could he put into cold words what had mostly been suggestion?
27805Presently the gipsy took his pipe out of his mouth and remarked in a careless way,"Want to sell that there horse of yours?"
27805So this is the parlour?
27805Supposing another Thing were to come along?"
27805Supposing the rooms are draughty-- I_ hate_ a draught myself-- where''s Toad?
27805Supposing tiles are blown off, or walls sink or crack, or windows get broken-- where''s Toad?
27805That your own bunk over on that side?
27805The engine- driver looked down upon him very sternly, and said,"Now tell the truth; what were you put in prison for?"
27805The sentries were on the look- out, of course, with their guns and their''Who comes there?''
27805The whole wood seemed running now, running hard, hunting, chasing, closing in round something or-- somebody?
27805They made the best fight they could, but what was the good?
27805They were unarmed, and taken by surprise, and what can two animals do against hundreds?
27805Was it in front or behind?
27805Was it the King?
27805Was n''t I_ funny_, Toad?"
27805Well, tell us,_ who''s_ out on the river?"
27805Well, what of it?
27805What do you think my last exploit was?
27805What do you think your father, my old friend, would have said if he had been here to- night, and had known of all your goings on?"
27805What have n''t I heard?"
27805What have they been doing?"
27805What of it?
27805What was to be done?
27805Whatever can be the matter?
27805When are you going to be sensible and think of your friends, and try and be a credit to them?
27805Where are you?
27805Where does the fun come in?
27805Where have you youngsters come from?
27805Where''s the amusement in that?
27805Who ever heard of a door- mat_ telling_ any one anything?
27805Who is it_ this_ time, disturbing people on such a night?
27805Who landed them all in a horse- pond?
27805Who managed to get on the front seat for the sake of fresh air?
27805Who persuaded them into letting him see if he could drive?
27805Who was it got them to give him a lift?
27805Who was it said,''There''s land ahead?''
27805Who was it steered it into a pond?
27805Who''s going to take the washing home to my customers every week?
27805Why dance jigs around a door- scraper?"
27805Why not stay on quietly here, like us, and be jolly?
27805Why this craving for change?
27805Will you overlook it this once and forgive me, and let things go on as before?"
27805Would you have him a common laughing- stock, mocked and jeered at by stoats and weasels?"
27805You know the place where the old ford used to be, in by- gone days before they built the bridge?"
27805You surely do n''t mean to stick to your dull fusty old river all your life, and just live in a hole in a bank, and_ boat_?
27805You will have heard of Constantinople, friend?
27805Your own idea, those little sleeping- bunks in the wall?
27805[ Illustration:_ It was the Water Rat_]"What?"
27805[ Illustration:_ Through the Wild Wood and the snow_]"Were n''t you at all-- er-- nervous?"
27805cried the Rat, open- mouthed:"Never been in a-- you never-- well I-- what have you been doing, then?"
27805do n''t I?''
27805he cried dismally,"why ever did I do it?
27805he merely said:''_ do_ something?
27805he said at last, rather severely;"of course you know I ca n''t do anything_ now_?"
27805he said,"me sell this beautiful young horse of mine?
27805said the engine- driver,"what''s the trouble?
27805us rabbits?''
27805we''re his friends-- oughtn''t we to do something?"
27805what am I saying?
27805who''s that_ handsome_ man?''
27805why struggle?"
2662''Twas rather a deep cut seemingly?
2662After school- hours this week? 2662 All the choir?"
2662And have you anything else you want to explain to me, Dewy?
2662And how did they sound?
2662And that when she sat for her certificate as Government teacher, she had the highest of the first class?
2662And the blue one only on Sunday?
2662And the saucer, if I like the cup?
2662And then he looked at me, and at last he said,''Are you in love with Dick Dewy?'' 2662 And we wo n''t sit down in his house;''twould be looking too familiar when only just reconciled?"
2662And what did mother say to you when you asked her?
2662And what was she like? 2662 And what''s think now, Dick?"
2662And when do you think you''ll have considered, father, and he may marry me?
2662And who''s that young man?
2662And you believed it?
2662And you''ll be my own wife?
2662And you''ll not call me Mr. Dewy any more?
2662And-- Dick too?
2662Apart from mine?
2662Are those all of them, father?
2662Better try over number seventy- eight before we start, I suppose?
2662But hers is n''t so soft, is it? 2662 But how?"
2662But is there anything in it?
2662But perhaps,she said, with assumed indifference,"it was only because no religion was going on just then?"
2662But surely you know?
2662But what d''ye think she really did mean?
2662By the way, Fancy, do you know why our quire is to be dismissed?
2662By the way,he continued in a fresher voice, and looking up,"that young crater, the schoolmis''ess, must be sung to to- night wi''the rest?
2662Close? 2662 Come to that, is it?
2662Coming along the road to- day then, I suppose?
2662D''ye know where?
2662D''ye know who I be- e- e- e- e- e?
2662Did Fred Shiner send the cask o''drink, Fancy?
2662Did n''t Dick and Fancy sound well when they were called home in church last Sunday?
2662Did ye hear that, souls?
2662Did you encourage him?
2662Do ye, Leaf?
2662Do you know how it came to be his wish?
2662Fancy, I have come to ask you if you will be my wife?
2662Fancy, why ca n''t you answer?
2662Fancy, you did n''t know me for a moment in my funeral clothes, did you?
2662Farmer Ledlow''s first?
2662Father here?
2662Father not in the humour for''t, hey?
2662Has she ever done more to thee?
2662Have the craters stung ye?
2662Have what?
2662Have ye carried up any dinner to her?
2662He do n''t want to go much; do ye, Thomas Leaf?
2662He looked at me, and I looked at him, and he said,''Will you let me show you how to catch bullfinches down here by the stream?'' 2662 How long is that?"
2662How long will you be putting on your bonnet, Fancy?
2662How long will you be?
2662How much?
2662How then?
2662How would that kind of love be taken?
2662How''s that?
2662Hurt who?
2662I hardly think Leaf had better go wi''us?
2662I may at any rate call you Fancy? 2662 I suppose you go straight on and up town?"
2662I wish you''d tell me how to put him in the humour for it?
2662Idd it cold inthide te hole?
2662Is all quite safe again?
2662Is it dangerous on the lip?
2662Is that all? 2662 Is that thee, young Dick Dewy?"
2662Is your grandson Dick in''ithin, William?
2662Neighbours, there''s time enough to drink a sight of drink now afore bedtime?
2662Never Geoffrey''s daughter Fancy?
2662Not any more than I am?
2662Not so much?
2662Now keep step again, will ye?
2662Now that''s a treat for you, is n''t it?
2662Now to Farmer Shiner''s, and then replenish our insides, father?
2662Now to my mind that woman is very romantical on the matter o''children?
2662Now, Fancy, will you be my wife?
2662O Dick,she sobbed out,"where have you been away from me?
2662O no; the hat is well enough; but it makes you look rather too-- you wo n''t mind me saying it, dear?
2662O, I know what you mean-- that the vicar will never let me wear muslin?
2662O, I wish!--How did you say she wore her hair?
2662O, how''s that?
2662O-- that you, Master Dewy?
2662Or that I care the least morsel of a bit for him?
2662Perhaps she''s jist come from some musical city, and sneers at our doings?
2662Really, you do n''t know? 2662 Really?
2662Remember the words of the prophet Jeremiah:''Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire?''
2662Shall anything saucier be found than united''ooman?
2662Strange, is n''t it, for her to be here Christmas night, Master Penny?
2662Suppose we must let en come? 2662 Th''st hauled her back, I suppose?"
2662Then why not stop for fellow- craters-- going to thy own father''s house too, as we be, and knowen us so well?
2662Then why not wear the gray one on Sunday as well? 2662 They have, have n''t they, Geoffrey?"
2662They seemed to be rather distant in manner last Sunday, I thought?
2662Till that time will ye lend me your hand?
2662Twice, I think you said?
2662Very much?
2662Very strange woman, is n''t she?
2662We have some mixed indoors; would you kindly run and get it for me?
2662We made a mistake I suppose then, sir? 2662 We''ve come to see''ee, sir, man and man, and no offence, I hope?"
2662Well, but how?
2662Well, how?
2662Well, what do you say, Missie?
2662Well, what is it?
2662Well, whoever would have thought such a thing?
2662Well, why should n''t she?
2662Well, why should n''t the man hang up her bird- cage? 2662 Well-- ay: what did she say?
2662What about he? 2662 What about her face?"
2662What are you in trouble about? 2662 What did I say?"
2662What did he say?
2662What have you heard?
2662What have you seen?
2662What in the name o''righteousness can have happened?
2662What might that ha''been?
2662What things can you have to think o''so mortal much?
2662What was his age when''a died?
2662What''s she doing now, Geoffrey?
2662What''s that?
2662What''s the matter, dear?
2662What''s the matter?
2662What''s the objection to the hat? 2662 What?
2662What?
2662What?
2662Whatever is father a- biding out in fuel- house so long for?
2662Whatever will the vicar say, Fancy?
2662Where be the boys?
2662Where is the path?
2662Where''s Dick?
2662Where''s my da''ter?
2662Which do you mean by that?
2662Which is head man?
2662Who was it?
2662Who''s to say she did n''t?
2662Why about-- between that young lady and me?
2662Why are you so silent?
2662Why ca n''t you exactly answer?
2662Why did you not tell me-- why did n''t you? 2662 Why do n''t your stap- mother come down, Fancy?"
2662Why go away?
2662Why n- o- o- o- o- ot?
2662Why not wear what you''ve got on?
2662Why not? 2662 Why not?
2662Why, Dick, is that thee? 2662 Why, Fancy?"
2662Why, father of me?
2662Why, we did when we were married, did n''t we, Ann?
2662Why, what? 2662 Why?"
2662Will it hurt him, poor thing?
2662Will you fetch down a bit of raw- mil''cheese from pantry- shelf?
2662Will you pass me some bread?
2662Wonder where your grandfather James is?
2662You see, Mr. Mayble, we''ve got-- do I keep you inconvenient long, sir?
2662You think I''ve been cruel to thee in saying that that penniless Dick o''thine sha''n''t marry thee, I suppose?
2662You wo n''t wear that old waistcoat, will you, Dick?
2662''Ann,''I said to her when I was oiling my working- day boots wi''my head hanging down,''Woot hae me?''
2662''D''ye do?''
2662--And only having a cup by itself?
2662A hat or a bonnet, which shall it be?
2662And how many will that make in all, four or five?"
2662And to save time I wo n''t wait till you have done, if you have no objection?"
2662And what came o''t?
2662And you know en very well too, do n''t ye, Fancy?"
2662And, Fancy, you do care for me?"
2662And, Mr. Mayble, I hope you''ll excuse my common way?"
2662And, Mr. Mayble, you be not offended?
2662At sight of him had the pink of her cheeks increased, lessened, or did it continue to cover its normal area of ground?
2662Because you only care how you look to me, do you, dear?
2662Brownjohn?"
2662But it seems-- it do seem there must have been more than that to set you up in such a dreadful taking?"
2662But no:''How d''ye do, Reuben?''
2662But we understood the young woman did n''t want to play particularly?"
2662But why disturb what is ordained, Richard and Reuben, and the company zhinerally?
2662But wo n''t ye step inside?
2662But you do love me a little, do n''t you?"
2662But-- I know you have never encouraged him?"
2662CHAPTER V: RETURNING HOME WARD"''A took it very well, then?"
2662D''ye know what her mother was?"
2662Day?"
2662Day?"
2662Dewy?"
2662Dewy?"
2662Dewy?"
2662Dewy?"
2662Did n''t you ever hear I was a witch?"
2662Did our party tell''ee?"
2662Did ye know that then she went to the training- school, and that her name stood first among the Queen''s scholars of her year?"
2662Did you remember,--I mean did n''t you remember about my going away to- day?"
2662Did you suppose I knew?
2662Do I look nice really?"
2662Do you mind dipping the tips of your fingers in the same?"
2662Do you take sugar?"
2662Does it make me look old?"
2662Doom?
2662Endorfield?"
2662Fancy had blushed;--was it with confusion?
2662Fancy looked interested, and Dick said,"No?"
2662Fancy, will you marry me?"
2662Ha''n''t I, Ann?"
2662Have ye come for anything else?"
2662He lowered his voice to a mysterious tone:"Neighbours, have ye noticed any sign of a scornful woman in his head, or suchlike?"
2662He went on, and what did he do?
2662Hey-- what did you say, my sonnies?"
2662Hey?"
2662How is it he''s left you?"
2662How is it your stap- mother is n''t here?"
2662How many times did you say he danced with her?"
2662I did n''t say in what way your thinking of me affected the question-- perhaps inversely, do n''t you see?
2662I hope you see our desire is reason?"
2662I just said, Did she care about me?"
2662I suppose th''st want to come wi''us?"
2662I''ve been thinking we must be almost the last left in the county of the old string players?
2662If the story- tellers could ha''got decency and good morals from true stories, who''d ha''troubled to invent parables?"
2662Is n''t that nature and reason for gentle and simple?
2662No one said"Know what?"
2662Now do ye think after this that you be good enough for her?"
2662Now is there anything else we want, Mr Dewy?"
2662Now, I hold that that was coming it very close, Reuben?"
2662Now, what I want to know is, what was the meaning of that speech?"
2662Or were you behind the pier?"
2662She dived into the hamper again, and at the end of two or three minutes looked up and said,"I suppose you do n''t mind if I ca n''t find a spoon?"
2662She was thinking-- of her lover Dick Dewy?
2662She''s never been stuffing into thy innocent heart that he''s in hove with her?
2662Shiner?"
2662That sounds very well?
2662That you''ll clearly understand, Dewy?"
2662There was a terrible whispering piece of work in the congregation, was n''t there, neighbour Penny?"
2662There''s your brother Bob just as bad-- as fat as a porpoise-- wi''his low, mean,''How''st do, Ann?''
2662They do move his soul; do n''t''em, father?"
2662To reproach Dick?
2662Turk seize it all, what''s that got to do wi''it?
2662Was she a coquette?
2662We all know one another very well, do n''t we, neighbours?"
2662We always use kettle- holders; did n''t you learn housewifery as far as that, Mr. Dewy?
2662We shall form a very striking object walking along in rotation, good- now, neighbours?"
2662Well, she''s ready, I do n''t doubt?"
2662What b''st doing here?"
2662What have I done?"
2662Whatever could mother be thinking about?
2662Where have you lived all your life?"
2662Which do I look best in?"
2662Which is head man?"
2662Who d''ye think''s the bitter weed in our being turned out?
2662Who''s that?"
2662Whoever thinks of a towel till the hands are wet?"
2662Why not wear the one you wore at our party?"
2662Why, I ask, as far as that do go?"
2662Why, sonnies, a man''s not himself till he is fortified wi''a bit and a drop?
2662Why, what''s possessing your little soul?
2662Why, wherever could you have got it?"
2662Will ye come with me?"
2662Will ye just ask Dick if he''ll do me the kindness to step over to Yalbury to- morrow with my da''ter Fancy, if she''s well enough?
2662Will you, Fancy, marry me?"
2662Would you mind lifting the kettle off, that it may not boil dry?"
2662You do n''t think for a moment that I did, surely, do you?"
2662You knowed his daughter was in training?"
2662You live with your mother, I think, Leaf?"
2662You lively young mortals, how did you get inside there?
2662You used to know Johnson the dairyman, William?"
2662You''ve heard about me and-- Miss Day?"
2662cheese you said, Fancy?"
2662how shall I go through it?"
2662is her hair as soft and long as this?"
2662or a saucer by itself?"
2662what''s that?"
2662whatever dost thou do here?"
35474''Haena I tauld ye that I hae never seen his face sinsyne?'' 35474 ''How lost himself?
35474''In what respects, dotard?'' 35474 ''Is your name and influence, then, to perish for ever?''
35474''Tam Linton, what''s that you''re saying? 35474 ''Very well, sir,''says I--''what shall I bring?''
35474''What the devil are you lying gaping and braying at there?'' 35474 ''Where else would you have me to be at this hour of the night, old blockhead?''
35474Ah, master, what''s that you''re saying to my auld wife? 35474 Alas, my good friends, what is this?"
35474Allanson?--Mr Allanson? 35474 And am I to meet my Mary at Moffat?
35474And are you absolutely positive it was oats both years?
35474And did he give, or promise to give you, any reward for what you were to say?
35474And has he not broke every plate and dish on the whole dresser?
35474And how are you, good dame?
35474And is it really thought that this Laird made away wi''our auld master?
35474And shall I tell you what he said to me?
35474And were you certain the body was then deposited in the coffin?
35474And what are they, Jock?
35474And what for no, lad? 35474 And what is the visiting to gang for, then?
35474And whereon does that wise saw bear? 35474 And why should you decline telling this?"
35474And why so? 35474 And your aged neighbours,"rejoined she,"are they still alive and well?"
35474And, in order that you should do this, he paid you down fifteen pounds sterling?
35474Are ye for fighting, Rob Johnston?
35474Are ye really gaun to act the part of a devil, the day, Mr Adamson, and turn me and thae bairns out to the bare high- road, helpless as we are? 35474 Are ye sic a reprobate as to deny the words o''the Scripture, sir?
35474Are you conscious they were_ not_ the truth?
35474Are you quite conscious, now, that those things he brought to your remembrance were actually the truth?
35474Are you to hire, pretty maiden?
35474Are you waking, I say?
35474Are you wise enough, my dear father, to send such a message?
35474At what time will she be there?
35474Ay, but whilk o''your minds will ye tell me, Jock? 35474 But how think you the Earl of Hume would like to hear this?"
35474But you depone that he charged you to tell only the truth?
35474Can you mention any circumstance on which you rest your conclusions?
35474Can you repeat any thing to the Court that he desired you to say?
35474Could ye tak your oath on that, Johnnie Jardine?
35474Couldna she have said sae then, and that wad hae put it beyond a''doubt? 35474 Dear brother, I''m sure you are not going to drink your bottles here?
35474Dear daughter Matilda, where is the presumptuous being of the fallen race of Adam who can say, Here will I stand in my own strength? 35474 Dear sir, how could it be a dream?"
35474Dear sir, ye''re surely no yoursell the day? 35474 Dear, Mrs Jane, what objections can you have to Mr Francis Beattie, the most accomplished young gentleman of the whole country?"
35474Dear, dear, sirs, can nae ye eat away? 35474 Dear, what for, master?"
35474Did you ever drink with him?
35474Did you screw down the coffin- lid firmly then, as you do others of the same make?
35474Do ye want to hae a fight, lad? 35474 Does the horse- leech really cry that, Mrs Jane?
35474Dost thou call me a malevolent and dangerous person, sir? 35474 Eh?"
35474Fy, fy, Wattie, how can ye say sae? 35474 Gawin, can nae ye tak''the Minister ben the house, or the rest o''the clanjamphery come in?"
35474Gudeness preserve us a''in our right senses, Andrew Burnet, what''s the matter wi''you, Andrew Burnet?
35474Gudewife, am I waking? 35474 Had not you once a beautiful daughter, named Mary?"
35474Had ye never ony suspicions o''that kind, John?
35474Have the disordered senses been rallied in one moment? 35474 Have ye seen the news o''the day, kerlin?"
35474Have ye seen the news o''the day?
35474Have you any stomach for taking measure of a pair of boots this morning?
35474Have you felled your favourite John Thomson?
35474Have you heard any thing of the apparition which has been seen about Wineholm Place?
35474Hilloa, George,cried a voice close at his ear,"what''s the matter wi''ye?
35474How as we are?
35474How can I go and bring in the Lord President, when my coach is broken in pieces, my poor Dawtie lying with twa of her legs broken, and Duncan dead? 35474 How did ye find our poor bairn the day, titty Jean?
35474How did you find all at Gawin''s to- day, now when I have gotten time to speir?
35474How is this?
35474How long is it since you lost her?
35474How many daughters has Gawin?
35474How much did he give, or promise you, for answering as he directed you?
35474How''s this!--How''s this, sirs?
35474I am at a little loss, Gawin-- Has any change taken place in family circumstances since I was here?
35474I said so,said the dwarf,"and I say farther, dost thou know this token?
35474I think aunty''s unco parabolical the day,said Tibby to her grandmother;"what makes her that gate?"
35474I''ll say, sir, that ye''ll be there by twall o''clock;--will I, sir?
35474Indeed, sir, I hae muckle reason to be thankfu''--"For what?"
35474Is it my wellbeing alone over which your soul yearns? 35474 Is that little Missie?"
35474Is there any body in this moor district whom you ever heard blamed for the horrible crime of witchcraft?
35474Lord, now, what think ye o''that?
35474Mr Adamson, what are ye about?
35474My dear young friend, do I indeed see you thus?
35474My wages must be in kind; I work on no other conditions.--Pray, how are all the good people about Inverlawn?
35474Na, but I wadna wonder if something else were cuttit short,said Patie;"What will ye say an some o''your weazons be cuttit short?
35474Nay, but what is it about?
35474Nay?--Dare you say nay to me, sir? 35474 None in the least?
35474Now, do you consent to let me have them?
35474Now, pray let us hear from that sage tongue of yours, so full of sublime adages, what this doubtful being said to you?
35474O fy, Andrew, how can ye say sae? 35474 O, Maister Adamson, ye maunna turn my father and mother out o''their house and their farm; or what think ye is to come o''us?"
35474O, my poor Dawtie, where are a''your jinkings and prancings now, your moopings and your wincings? 35474 Oh, what can ye expect else of a Papish?"
35474Oogh? 35474 Oogh?"
35474Pray what have you lost, sir?
35474Pray, what is your name, ancient shepherd?
35474Remain in the room there, Burgess,said he.--"What, brother Frank, are you seeking here at this hour, armed capapee?
35474Sir,said Francis, whose passion could stay no farther parley,"dare you put it to the issue of the sword this moment?"
35474So he is then alive, you say?
35474So she was indeed there, whining and whimpering over her honourable lover?
35474So you are convinced, dearie, that it is nae dream?
35474So you got these at T----r, did you?
35474So you never saw nor heard tell of any apparition about Wineholm Place, lately?
35474That''s surely a very fine horse of yours, Jock?
35474The devil I will, sir?
35474Them? 35474 Then I suppose you shepherds expect to have century about with us, or so?
35474Then, it wad appear there is no doubt of it? 35474 Tut, gudeman, what does the sheep mind an auld creeping body like me?
35474Was he very much given to drinking of late?
35474Weel, gudeman, how''s a''wi''ye the day?
35474Well, John,said the Doctor,"what absurd lie is this that you are vending among your fellow servants, of having seen a ghost?"
35474Well, what is it? 35474 Were there any others that you think your master had marked down wrong?"
35474Were you long acquainted with the late Laird of Wineholm, James?
35474Were you present at the corpse- chesting?
35474Wha do ye ca''auld Papist dogs, Mr Adamson?--Wha is it that ye mean to denominate by that fine- sounding title?
35474Wha the devil bade you come into my house, and eat up the meat that was made for others?
35474Wha was it tauld you a''about it?
35474What became of her?
35474What can it be that is astir here to- day?
35474What do you wish to insinuate, sir? 35474 What gart ye let me lie sae lang?
35474What has set ye onna thae reflections the day, aunty?
35474What is the meaning of this? 35474 What is this I hear?"
35474What is this that beats the world, Mr Clinkum?
35474What of Mary?
35474What right have I to detain you, sir, say you? 35474 What song is that you were singing?"
35474What story?
35474What story?
35474What was it you said, daughter Matilda? 35474 What were your reasons for that?"
35474What''s a''this, Squire Tummas? 35474 What, then, are your wages to be?
35474What, ye auld profane wafer- eater, and worshipper of graven images, dare ye heave your pikit kent at me?
35474What,said she,"have you so soon forgot Mary Burnet of Kirkstyle?"
35474Where is my cloak, daughter Matilda?
35474Who was Rob Dodds? 35474 Why, Shusy, my dear, what has he done to you?"
35474Why, man, keep us not in this thrilling suspense.--Is our father well?
35474Why, sir, how can you laugh?
35474Will you hire with me?
35474Will you hire with me?
35474Would it suit your convenience to sing that last verse over again?
35474Wouldst thou like to see her again?
35474You have seen him, then?
35474You know what I told you before you went away? 35474 You must have seen him very drunk then?
35474You_ think_ he is? 35474 ''Do you not see the plight I am in, and why wo n''t you fly to succour me?'' 35474 ''Hae ye never seen Rob Dodds sin''that morning he gaed away wi''your wife?'' 35474 ''John Broadcast,''said he, with a deep and angry tone,--''John Broadcast, what the d-- l are you thinking about? 35474 ''Whaten way is he bad?'' 35474 --This will be a thrang day w''ye?
35474--''But, O man,''quo''the lad,''hae ye ony bit bread about your pouches; for I''m unco hungry?
35474Add a cipher to a ninth figure, and what does that make?
35474Allanson, being resolved to have this one at any wages, took her aside, and put the usual question:"Do you wish to hire, pretty maiden?"
35474And can not ye lift up your een, and see what region you are in now?''
35474And dear, dear, sir, how''s Miss Matty, sir?
35474And did ye never think that they wad be visited on your heads some day when ye couldna play paw to help yoursells?
35474And did ye never think there was an ear that heard, and an ee that saw, a''thae things?
35474And had not John Broadcast reason to be thankful that he was as he was?
35474And have you got all that valuable plate?"
35474And have you mourned for her all that while?"
35474And he said,''Ah, Tibby, Tibby, but wha can hain like you?''"
35474And how are all within?"
35474And how is it possible that you can pay three times the rent at lower prices of sheep?
35474And how was I assured that there was no mis- statement?
35474And she made a''its servants her enemies; and think you these good men''s prayers were a''to blaw away i''the wind, and be nae mair regarded?
35474And wha was''t that gae the poor precentor the whiskings, and reduced a''his sharps to downright flats?
35474And what say ye to this time nine years, gudeman?"
35474And what think you it turned out to be?
35474And where is it thought they have ta''en her to, Bessie?"
35474Andrew Burnet, are you waking?"
35474Are we to be habbled out o''house and hadding by this rapturous[B] young lawyer o''yours?
35474Are ye gane daft?
35474Are ye no gaun to rise to your wark the day?"
35474Are ye sure he hasna been drinking hard?"
35474Are you uncertain, then?"
35474At length, after a long pause, she looked over her shoulder, and said,--"Jeanie, warna ye speaking o''ganging ower to see our bairn the day?
35474Ay, but then put a cipher_ above_ a nine, and what does that make?
35474But I hope, as usual, you will take a family- dinner with me to- day?"
35474But are tou sure it is the auld wotch I''m to bring?
35474But could you think o''naething else to gie a body wha likes as weel to be paid aff- hand as to gie credit?
35474But did you never hear of her sending any living men_ to_ their graves?
35474But how wad she settle it then, Jock?
35474But tell me, you old sinner, how has your Maker been serving you this storm?
35474But then, where had it been?
35474But wha was''t that sat half a night at the side of a grey stane wi''a crazy cooper?
35474But what can folk help it?
35474But what could he do?
35474But what do I say?"
35474But what do you know about Inverlawn?"
35474But what way are we hoaxed?
35474But, subtleties aside, I ask you, as I did before, What became of your daughter?"
35474Can not ye lift up your voice and sing a stave wi''your auld crony?
35474Can you tell me what was the cause of such a complete overthrow of the farmers of that age?"
35474Come-- say?
35474D''ye ken it, Geordie?
35474Dear, dear, how are ye the day?
35474Did he say that it was by poison that he was taken off, or that he was strangled?"
35474Did she no tell ye ony thing?"
35474Did ye no hear that he had won the law- plea on his laird, whilk has been afore the Lords for mair than seven years?
35474Did you ever see him so drunk that he could not rise, for instance?"
35474Did you indeed kneel at my knee, and bathe my hand with your affectionate tears, without my once deigning to acknowledge you?
35474Did you say my Phemy was to have been there to- day?"
35474Didna she say, too, that''her sufferings had been beyond what flesh and blood could have endured?''
35474Didna that remark infer that she was something mair than a mortal creature?
35474Dinna ye mind that the morn is the day o''our solemnity?"
35474Dinna ye see that ye hae made the douce sonsy lad that he disna ken where to look?"
35474Do ye consider that ye hae been striking a poor orphan callant, wha has neither father nor mother to protect him, or to right his wrangs?
35474Do ye consider what ye hae been doing even now?
35474Do ye imagine I''m gaun to hae a''my clippers and grippers, buisters and binders, laid half idle, gaffing and giggling wi''you?"
35474Do you know where you are, sir?"
35474Do you no think there are siccan things in nature, as folk no coming fairly to their ends, John?"
35474Do you not know that his grace aboundeth to the chief of sinners?"
35474Do you say your master instructed you what to say?"
35474Do you suppose that I do not know my own father?"
35474Does any body say ten pounds for this excellent cow?
35474Eh?"
35474Five pounds-- only five pounds!--Nobody bids five pounds?
35474Good Gawin, why do you not give me your hand?
35474Good day.--Twelve o''clock to- morrow?"
35474Grand demand for boots there just now, I hear-- eh?
35474Gudeness guide us, mother, am I no up yet?"
35474Had the gentleman a whole regiment coming up, all of the same size, and the same measure of leg?
35474Hark ye, masters-- can a man be said to be in life when he is out of himself?"
35474Hasna an auld body as good a right to dream as a young ane?
35474Have our unworthy prayers indeed been heard at the throne of Omnipotence, and answered so suddenly?
35474Have the reavers come, and are our kye driven?"
35474He''s in fine taking, and that you''ll find; but whatfor do I stand here?
35474How are ye getting on wi''the clipping?"
35474How are ye?
35474How are you and auld granny coming on?"
35474How are you yourself?
35474How are you?"
35474How can human comprehension make any thing of this?"
35474How can ye doubt that it was in the Almighty''s name?"
35474How can ye gang to Moffat, man?
35474How can you do this, Jock, if you go as you were flying through the country?
35474How d''ye do, sir?
35474How do ye say about that?"
35474How do you think a flying one should gather it?"
35474How much corn does he eat in a year, this hunter of yours, Jock?"
35474How muckle is that?"
35474How wad ye like sir, an ony body were to guide a bairn o''yours that gate?
35474I appeal to your Lordships if such a farrago as this can be at all inferential or relevant?"
35474I conjure you to tell me your name?"
35474I hope you are not come to assassinate me in my bed?"
35474I hope you have taken Graham over the coals about Phemy?"
35474I would not wonder if he had cost you eighteen pounds, that greyhound of a creature?"
35474If the devil should have all, that is absolute-- Will that suffice?"
35474In the name of my destitute bairns I curse him; and does he think that a mother''s curse will sink fizzenless to the ground?
35474Ir ye dementit?"
35474Is it not mean and dastardly in you all to combine against an object that can not defend himself?"
35474Is it so soon to follow your master''s, the great Maxwell of the Dales, into utter oblivion?
35474Is it yourself?
35474Is not that strange?"
35474Is she living, or is she dead?"
35474Is that the gate o''t, Bessie?
35474Is this my dear young friend, Miss Mary Sibbet?"
35474Is yon the spot?"
35474It is to be hoped these little constitutional failings will not be laid to their charge.--So Gawin has but one daughter?"
35474Look at his shoulder; and see what limbs he has; and what a pastern!--How much do you suppose such a horse would be worth, now, uncle?"
35474Look, and see if thou dost?"
35474Nobody says ten pounds?
35474Now, do you insist on my reasons for asking such a question?"
35474Now, do you take me along with you?
35474Now, havena we reason to be thankfu''that we are as we are?
35474O dear, dear!--Blessed little creature, tell me how she is, and where she is?
35474O, thou unearthly- looking monitor, knowest thou aught of my darling child?
35474Or was he not rather an army agent, come to take specimens of the best workmen in the country?
35474Or what have ye to do at Moffat?
35474Or where could it borrow her claes, Jean?
35474Peace be wi''us, quo''I to myself, where am I now?
35474Perhaps our father may appear in the neighbourhood, and may be concealing himself for some secret purpose.--Did you tell him of our quarrel?"
35474Pray, may I ask your name?"
35474Satisfied, did I say?
35474Say, then, at once, what your message is: Is our father alive?"
35474She had nothing to give them that night, so what could she do?
35474Surely you are not desirous that this young man''s soul should perish?
35474Tam Beattie,''added she,''where is a''your courage now?
35474Tell me this, then-- did he not inform you what the truth was?"
35474Tell me, in truth, Mr Dobson, did you suffer him to call you_ Souter_ twice to your face without resenting it?"
35474Ten shillings for the cow-- ten shillings-- ten shillings-- Will nobody bid ten shillings to set the sale a- going?"
35474The grandest story yon, sir, I ever heard-- eh?--Needing a leg o''beef?--Better?
35474The querist went on--"What?
35474The sick young man, from what I heard, I fear, is incapable of spiritual conversation?"
35474Then a different voice asked--"What will_ she_ see, kerlin?"
35474They will a''turn back on your ain head; for what harm can the curses of a poor sinfu''worm do to our master?"
35474Though God withdraw his protecting arm from a fellow- creature for a time, are we to give all up for lost?
35474Tibby answered in the affirmative; on which granny said,"What has he been havering about sae lang the day?
35474Was it not strange that she could not get quit of this sole annoyance of her life?
35474Was there not a great loss on this farm once, when it was said the burn was so dammed up with dead carcasses that it changed its course?"
35474We had a gude deal o''speaking about it, and I said to John Edie,''What need we grumble?
35474Well, then, does any gentleman say five pounds to begin this excellent cow that gives twelve pints of milk daily?
35474What a d-- d lubberly way of dressing a horse is that?''
35474What are ye coming doiting up through amang the sheep that gate for, putting them a''tersyversy?"
35474What are ye gaun to do wi''siller the day?"
35474What are your wages to be?"
35474What care I for Tibby Tod, dame?
35474What could it mean?
35474What could she think of me, who neither named nor kissed her, but that I had cast her off and renounced her?
35474What d''ye think o''that, woman?
35474What did he say?
35474What do you mean?
35474What does it signify to sell your stock at a great price, merely for a boast, if you never get the money for it?
35474What does the ignorant clown mean by joining in this unnatural clamour?"
35474What else can cause such a bustle about a house where trouble has so long prevailed?
35474What ghost do you mean?"
35474What good can her life now do to her, or of what value is her life to any creature living?
35474What has befallen her-- whose breakfast cup did she drink?"
35474What has he to maintain a lady spouse with?
35474What hast thou to say to auld Andrew Burnet at this time o''night?"
35474What have you to say for yourself?"
35474What is it?"
35474What is man that he should fret, or the son of man that he should repine, under the chastening hand of his Maker?"
35474What is the cost?"
35474What is the matter with you, man?"
35474What is this?
35474What news about Selkirk?
35474What or whom think you I met an hour ago on my way to the Crook of Glen- dearg to encounter you?"
35474What relation has that to the seeing of a ghost?
35474What then art thou?
35474What think you of this proposal, Rosy?"
35474What wad you think an she could get the Young Laird, his brother, wi''a blink o''her ee?"
35474What was she but flesh and blood?
35474What way is he gaun to get siccan great riches?
35474What were ye guffawing and laughing at?"
35474What will the best of us do, if left to ourselves, better than the erring, inexperienced being, whose turning aside you so bitterly censure?
35474What will we do?"
35474What will we do?"
35474What wilt thou try next?"
35474What''s that ye were saying?
35474What''s that you''re saying?"
35474When it came to Mr Turnbull, he held it up between him and the light,--"Keatie, whaten a niff- naff of a glass is this?
35474When will you be needing it?"
35474Where are they a''now?
35474Wherefore would you rather hear another man''s demonstration than mine?"
35474Whether will you or the deil win?"
35474Who are you that make such a demand here?
35474Who can trace the links of association in the human mind?
35474Why do n''t you give me my clothes?
35474Why not rather rouse into requisition the energies of the spirits that watch over human destinies?
35474Why not then hear her evidence to the end?
35474Why, Johnston, does thou know that measter hath lwost himself?''
35474Will it not, Jessy?"
35474Will you make the discovery for yourself by deciding in my favour?"
35474Wo n''t you have pity on me, and let me have a little peace for a short time?
35474Would he not take this, and refrain from that, and wear one part of dress in preference to another that he had on?
35474Would you infer, because I have three leisters, that therefore I am a breaker of the laws?
35474Ye''ll be cauld?"
35474Ye''re telling me what canna be true-- Do ye say that ye haena seen Rob Dodds sin''that day?''
35474Yonder''s Patie Maxwell''s curse coming rowing and reeling on ye already; and what will ye say an the curse of God be coming backing it?"
35474You certainly must be sensible that you made an advantageous bargain?"
35474You were not so unnatural as to forget your own flesh and blood, in communing with the man who has wronged her?"
35474Your daughter-- your dear beloved and only daughter, Mary--""What of Mary?"
35474about Phemy?"
35474and a''for naething, but a bit start o''natural affection?
35474and then the Laird proceeded with his provoking interrogatories-- How much did his nephew''s fine boots and spurs cost?
35474and they are shod wi''silver, and silver tassels round the top?
35474and what good could it do to him to mislead you?
35474are ye there wi''your dreams and your visions o''the night, Geordie?
35474but what a plague of a song is that you are singing?"
35474cried he vehemently--"Would I like to see her again, say''st thou?"
35474cried the Lady;"what right hast thou to intrude on thy mistress''s privacy?
35474dinna ye think that he has a''thae things merkit down in black and white?
35474exclaimed Patie Maxwell,"What is this?
35474has he not caused me to knock down John Thomson?
35474have ye heard what has happened at the ha''?
35474he cried;"I am feared that mad body has killed ye, and then what am I to do wanting ye?
35474he cried;"hae ye tint your reason a''thegither, that ye are gaun on rampauging like a madman that gate?
35474heard ever ony o''ye the like o''that?
35474how can I interfere,''said I,''at this distance?
35474or to be ushered into the very midst of those glorious realities which he hath hitherto treated as a fiction?
35474or what could have been the reasons for concealing it?
35474said Isaac to himself.--"Am I brought here to a funeral or corpse- chesting, without being apprised of the event?
35474said Isaac, after biting his lip, and making a long pause;"What did you say, daughter Matty?
35474said he;"and has it been your own lovely self who has been playing tricks on me this whole day?"
35474says I,''are you there?''
35474still in the same state of suffering?"
35474ten pounds-- ten pounds?
35474were you in with our honourable friend, Mr R---- of L----y?"
35474what ails you, my bairn?"
35474what is the matter wi''ye, Geordie?"
35474what think ye o''the auld beggar''s curse now?
35474what was his tailor''s bill yearly?
35474what''s that I hear ye saying, Tam Linton?''
35474what''s the lassie saying?"
35474whaten them?"
35474who told you to say that?
35474why should you ask after my name?"
16258''Taking advantage?'' 16258 A North- country man?"
16258All well- born men, Julius, all of them; are they not, Charlotte? 16258 Am I one of the family, or am I not?"
16258And Stephen Latrigg?
16258And have all my plans put out of the way?
16258And how could you live with her?
16258And so he asked you first, eh, Charley?
16258And uncle Launcelot, did she not fret for him?
16258And what became of the shepherd?
16258And you must go back to your regiment?
16258And you would not have him? 16258 Any news, mother?"
16258Are you going to rent your''walks''so soon? 16258 Are you going to see Harry?"
16258Are you sleepy Sophy?
16258Are you sure that your plans are the best plans?
16258Are you sure, even of that excuse? 16258 As how?"
16258But why did Julius take that trouble? 16258 But why go in the night, Julius?
16258But why?
16258Can I come and speak to you, mother?
16258Charlotte?
16258Cobweb tackle, eh, Charlotte? 16258 Cumberland born?"
16258Did they explain it to you, Julius?
16258Did you send for me, father?
16258Did you?
16258Do n''t you remember old Abraham, Sophy? 16258 Do n''t you think God made Italians as well as Englishmen?"
16258Do n''t you think so, sir?
16258Do what, Charlotte? 16258 Do you love Steve, Charlotte?
16258Do you mean that you wish me to go?
16258Do you want to tell me?
16258Do you wish me to be insulted by your sister Charlotte again? 16258 Does father like him?"
16258Does he think that being''top- shearer''gives him a right to make love to Charlotte Sandal?
16258Does she live here?
16258Does the squire know any thing about them?
16258Dreamed of him?
16258Eh, but he did!--Parson Sellafield, what do you say about that?
16258Eh? 16258 Eh?
16258Eh? 16258 Eh?
16258Father, have I not got some money of my own?
16258Father, why did you do that?
16258Father?
16258For good and all?
16258For what? 16258 Four letters?"
16258Has any one named thy father to thee?
16258Have I done justly and honorably by you?
16258He does not admire me, Harry; so how can I admire him?
16258He is alive, then?
16258He left you nothing?
16258How did you know it was I?
16258How is grandfather?
16258I am glad to get away from her a little while,he cried;"how can she be your sister, Sophia?"
16258I wonder why it is, father?
16258If he asks, will you tell him?
16258Is he going with you?
16258Is he gone?
16258Is he not handsome, Alice?
16258Is he sick?
16258Is he? 16258 Is it Harry, father?"
16258Is it not also in Charlotte''s palm? 16258 Is not Stephen at home?"
16258Is that what you think, Ducie? 16258 Is the interest sufficient?"
16258It does not then strike you as dishonorable to keep it?
16258It was on a summer day, Charlotte? 16258 Julius, would it not be better to try and get around Harry?
16258Julius?
16258Mother,he asked,"do you know what those papers are about?"
16258Object? 16258 Or a handsomer young man than her son?"
16258Really, you know?
16258Really? 16258 Show my face?"
16258Signor Lanza? 16258 Sir?"
16258Sold out? 16258 Sophia and Charlotte will go then?"
16258Stephen Sandal, mother?
16258Such as?
16258Suppose Julius had died six weeks ago, would you think of''cheering up,''Sophia?
16258The climate is wrong also? 16258 The eldest?
16258Then it is Steve Latrigg, eh? 16258 Then why go away?
16258Then, mother, then I am-- What am I, mother?
16258They? 16258 This Indian fellow, this Sandal of the Brahminical caste, what is he like, Charley?"
16258To see--"Harry?
16258To- day?
16258Was he well?
16258Was that all?
16258Was that all?
16258We shall be ready for church in a quarter of an hour, Julius; will you remain at home, or go with us?
16258We''ve had a goodish few together,--fishing secrets, and such like; but I must tell mother this one, eh? 16258 Well, squire, what want you?"
16258Well, where is the harm? 16258 What can it mean, Steve, Julius and Harry in correspondence?
16258What did Harry want? 16258 What did I say?
16258What do you mean?
16258What do you think of that, Alice? 16258 What does the squire think of Steve''s plans?
16258What does your brother and his wife say?
16258What has Julius to do with father''s money?
16258What has Julius to do with it?
16258What have you come to say, Sophia?
16258What is the matter with the squire, Charlotte? 16258 What is the matter, indeed?
16258What is the use of talking about Emily? 16258 What is to be done, mother?
16258What paper? 16258 What right have I to this one day''s more love?"
16258What shall I do? 16258 What value is there in such talk?"
16258When can you tell me?
16258When is he coming?
16258When my father was gone, then you came back to Up- Hill?
16258Where are you going? 16258 Where have you been, you and father, ever since daybreak?"
16258Who else?
16258Who is here to speak it? 16258 Who told you so, mother?"
16258Why did you not come also? 16258 Why did you not tell me all this before?"
16258Why should the sorrows of others darken her happy home?
16258Why should you, Julius? 16258 Why?"
16258Yes, really; why not?
16258You a North- country woman, Ducie,she said,"and yet going to bring snowdrops across the doorstone?
16258You are quite satisfied, Harry?
16258You are sure that you want to go, my dear? 16258 You have always heard that your father was drowned?
16258You mean, you have been writing to Tom about a marriage? 16258 _ Joke_, did you say?
16258''Father,''I asked,''whatever made you pull that?''
16258''How is Barf?''
16258--''Where is thy husband?''
16258Above all, turn down a leaf in your Bible where a fool once asked,''Who is my neighbor?''
16258An expression of angry purpose was in her wide- open eyes and firm mouth, as she asked,"Can you or Jamie, or any of the men, drive me to Kendal?"
16258And he is all for Sophia now, is he?
16258And he said,''When?''
16258And how can poor Julius defend himself against two ladies?
16258And how is Mrs. Sandal and Sophia?
16258And pray what allowance would my father make me, after the marriage I have contracted?"
16258And the wretched Esau, with the ten thousand pounds in his pocket?
16258And when his own love- affairs were pressing and important, how was it likely that he could care for those of Julius and Sophia?
16258And would it not be so, Miss Sandal?
16258And you have married her?
16258And you refused him?
16258Are there, father?"
16258Are we unvisited then?
16258Are you sure he was drowned?"
16258Are you sure?"
16258At Paris she had simply asked Julius,"What do_ you_ think of Paris?"
16258At last Joe asked him why ever he came so far up the fell for little bits of stone, when he might get so many down in the dales?
16258Be things at their usual, dear?"
16258But she is not your inferior?
16258But she lifted the nearest two, Barret''s"Maga,"and"The Veiled Prophet,"and rather dismally asked which it was to be?
16258But the disapproval only made Julius more determined to carry out his own views; and therefore, when the squire asked,"Where have you been?"
16258But what is success without you?
16258But what_ is_ the matter, Charlotte?
16258But who ever reasons with a superstition?
16258But why did you let the world think you loved a man beneath you?
16258Ca n''t you wait till events ripen naturally?"
16258Can I have the money soon?"
16258Can father?
16258Can we stop a moment at the rectory on our road?"
16258Can you be ready?"
16258Can you find me a sweeter or better soul?"
16258Can you spare us a couple of men?
16258Charlotte, dear, what shall I do?"
16258Could we climb the fell- breast, Charlotte?
16258Dare to show my face, eh?"
16258Did I not tell you that Beatrice could not live in this climate?
16258Did not the squire speak of it?"
16258Did you see the way he looked at you?
16258Did you send Steve away for a look?
16258Did you wish me to ruin and debase her?
16258Do n''t let Mrs. Sandal''take on''more than you can help;"and, as Stephen lifted the reins,"You think it best to bring all here?"
16258Do n''t you see, Alice?
16258Do you expect father to support you?
16258Do you imagine that I feel no sorrow in leaving father and my mother and you and the old home?
16258Do you know how it hampered him to do it?
16258Do you know me?"
16258Do you know what father paid for your commission?
16258Do you know what the trouble is?
16258Do you mind telling me about that refusal, Charlotte?
16258Do you notice with what ostentatious obedience and attention she devotes herself to your mother?"
16258Do you think I would ever marry Stephen against father''s wish, or to the injury or suffering of any one whom I love?
16258Do you think I would have the squire made heart- sick if I could make him heart- whole?
16258Do you think I would marry a stranger?"
16258Do you think that the dead see not?
16258Does any one imagine that such trials as these are small and insignificant?
16258Does he think that Stephen is n''t good enough to marry you?
16258Does she take proper care of herself, Charlotte?
16258Ducie had business that could not wait, and who but Stephen should drive her?
16258Eh, William?"
16258Eh, father?"
16258Eh?
16258Eh?
16258Eh?
16258Eh?
16258Eh?
16258Eh?

16258Eh?"
16258Eh?"
16258Eh?"
16258Eh?"
16258Eh?"
16258Fleeces?
16258Had I not better tell the truth?"
16258Had we not better go home?"
16258Harry was quite satisfied with the exchange, and what had other people to do with his affairs?
16258Has Harry written to you?"
16258Has he made any difference between you and me?
16258Have you heard a word about Steve''s father?
16258Have you told Charlotte?"
16258Have you told father?"
16258He considered the building of a mill so near his own property a great social wrong, and why should he thank Stephen Latrigg for not committing it?
16258He did not answer until they had walked some distance; then he asked meaningly,"Has it come to that?
16258How can I help?
16258How can a woman tell?"
16258How can they?
16258How can you treat me so?
16258How could Harry behave so shamefully to us all?"
16258How could I pray for him, if I forgot him?
16258How could I tell there was danger at Up- Hill?
16258How do I look?"
16258How do all at home do?"
16258How had it happened that Sophia had come to consider her welfare as apart from, and in opposition to, that of the general welfare of Seat- Sandal?
16258How is the lady at Up- Hill?"
16258How soon do you wish us to leave?"
16258However, if he was not making love to you at the shearing, wo n''t you find it a bit difficult to speak your mind?
16258I mean she is not uneducated or unladylike?"
16258I should like to hear about Joe and the_ what_?"
16258If Harry should come back-- what of Harry?
16258If I am not to encourage Stephen Latrigg, do you want me to marry Julius Sandal?"
16258If I see a man sleeping while the Devil rocks his cradle, have I not the right to say to him,''Wake up, you are in danger''?
16258If winter comes, can spring be far behind?''"
16258If your father dies, what will you do?"
16258In others?"
16258In the harvest- field, was it?
16258Is Ducie willing?"
16258Is Steve at home?"
16258Is a sin against a mother a less sin than one against a strange woman?
16258Is it a Scotch name?"
16258Is it fair, Sophia?
16258Is it to the lady whose picture you showed me?"
16258Is not my simple word, then, the best and the surest hope?"
16258Is she, then, an actress?"
16258Is that so?
16258Is the letter for you?"
16258Is there any more bad news?
16258Is there any wrong in loving you?
16258It is true they rather felt than understood; but when the soul has faith, what matters comprehension?
16258Julius, my dear one, can you find any thing fit to eat?"
16258Mostly he''s wandering up and down t''hills, talking his po- et- ry; but now and then he''ll say,"How do ye do, Nancy?"
16258Mother never heard tell of it?
16258Mother, why do n''t you cheer up and do something?
16258No time do you say?
16258Oh, do you hear the tinkling bells Of sheep that wander on the fells?
16258Or is your wife to sing in Italy?"
16258Ought not the money to go back to the estate, and you to make a fresh arrangement with father about your allowance?
16258Sandal?
16258Shall I stop?"
16258She stood upon the hearthstone while the servant rebolted the door, and then asked,--"Is dinner served, Noel?"
16258Sight, speech, feeling, where were they gone?
16258Sophia is happy in her own way, and we do not envy nor interfere with her happiness; but why should we permit her to make us unhappy?
16258Stephen, what is thy name?"
16258Suppose he was with a beautiful girl: is Julius the only young man entitled to such a privilege?
16258Suppose you selected some outlandish dress,--an Italian brigand''s, for instance,--what would the neighboring gentlemen think of you?
16258The affairs of the''walks''and the farms must be attended to, and what will they do on quarter- day?
16258The child is a boy, then?"
16258The kindest thing that is in your own heart say it to the dear old man for me; will you, Charlotte?"
16258The squire was silent a few minutes; then he asked in a slow, constrained voice,"What did you do?"
16258Then father would not have been squire of Sandal- Side if Launcelot had lived?"
16258Then she asked the question of all questions the most irritating,"What is the matter with you, squire?"
16258They may be in families, Ducie, who can tell?
16258They''ll have to be up before day- dawn to keep sidey with our Steve.--Steve, how many is thou ahead now?"
16258Thou, mother?"
16258Uncounselled?
16258Unfriended?
16258Was it not the failure of Cain''s attempted propitiation that kindled the flame of hate and murder in his heart?
16258We all think the most of what we have had a hand in ourselves, do n''t we Miss Sandal?
16258Were there no lovely English girls?
16258What are you and Sophia laughing at?
16258What can I do?
16258What can I do?
16258What can they refer to?
16258What did they do with it?"
16258What did they quarrel about?"
16258What do I care?"
16258What do I think?
16258What do you think of him, sir?"
16258What equivalent could he give you?"
16258What for Charley?"
16258What for?"
16258What have I done?"
16258What have you heard?
16258What is Calcutta?
16258What is Sandal- Side?
16258What is it?"
16258What is life itself, my own one?
16258What is the matter with you, Charlotte?
16258What kind of a person is an Italian?
16258What right had he to be discussing my family matters, or Sandal matters either, I wonder?
16258What right have you to spoil their lives, in order to give yourself a little pleasure?
16258What sin have they committed to be trodden under foot?
16258What terror is in my heart?
16258What were you going to say?"
16258What will he do with it?
16258What will people say?
16258What''s to do?"
16258What, Charlotte?"
16258What, Charlotte?"
16258What?
16258What?"

16258What?"
16258What?"
16258What?"
16258When did you get home?
16258When will you vacate?
16258Where are you going to live, then?"
16258Where did such thoughts and feelings spring from?
16258Where have you been?
16258Where is your mother?
16258Where shall we go?
16258Where?"
16258Which of you will go with me?
16258Who has been rating you?"
16258Who has not experienced these invasions of hostile natures?
16258Who is the some one else?"
16258Who?"
16258Why come at all now?"
16258Why did you give up the ways of your fathers?
16258Why did you not come home, and speak to me before it was too late?
16258Why had the lovers set themselves apart from the family, had secrets and consultations and interests they refused to share?
16258Why not leave the army?"
16258Why not wait until morning?"
16258Why should the villagers think that the sight of a letter from him would be so dreadful to his own people?"
16258Why should we waste our money?
16258Why were you having sad thoughts?"
16258Why, why?"
16258Will Satan care whether you be a peasant, or a star- and- garter gentleman?
16258Will you go, squire?"
16258Will you make up what is lacking, out of your interest money?
16258Will you say this Sophia, as I say it?"
16258Wo n''t you be missed?
16258Would you return there with Beatrice?"
16258You knew Nancy Butterworth, mother?"
16258You refused him?
16258You see what is coming to them?"
16258an uneducated shepherd like my reputed father?
16258asked Charlotte;"I''m not at all tired, and how can fresh air and sunshine make one melancholy?"
16258is there any thing I can do for you?"
16258know not?
16258no good English girls?
16258or I?
16258or mother?
16258said Joe;"and what should I show, then?
16258she cried,"does so lovely a woman really exist?"
16258that, in fact, he has never been quite easy about ready money since?"
16258what is the matter?
16258when the door is closed, and the windows darkened, who can tell what passes in the solemn temple of mortality?
16258where are her last letters?
11882''Where to?'' 11882 A good job?
11882A husband to love and cherish me?
11882A shilling, do you? 11882 Ah, Mr. Edward Cossey''s?
11882Ah, yes; then why did n''t you say so? 11882 All bones?"
11882All right,said the Squire;"are you going to take your wife with you?"
11882Am I not to be allowed a moment''s privacy in my own house? 11882 And if the engagement is not renewed the money will of course be called in?"
11882And that being so, sir, what is to be done?
11882And what did he do with it?
11882And what is his price?
11882And what is the place worth?
11882And what the devil business of yours is it, sir,asked Cossey,"what I have or have not done?
11882And where am I going to find thirty thousand pounds to take up a bundle of mortgages which will probably never pay a farthing of interest? 11882 And where is such a friend to be found?
11882And you think any means justifiable so long as you get it?
11882Any business?
11882Any passengers for Effry?
11882Are they?
11882Are you a good shot?
11882Are you acquainted with your grandfather''s handwriting?
11882Are you afraid?
11882Are you all right, George?
11882Are you all right?
11882Are you fond of shooting?
11882Are you satisfied, Mr. Cossey? 11882 Are you sure that he saw you, Mr. Cossey; he is very absent- minded sometimes?"
11882Are you sure?
11882Are you tired of me?
11882As I have said that I can not say''yes,''Colonel Quaritch, do you not think that I had better leave that question unanswered?
11882At what price will you agree to stay the action for ever?
11882Ay, it''s a fine old place, Colonel, is n''t it?
11882Bailiffs, marm?
11882But about the mortgages? 11882 But, Mr. Quest,"said Ida,"how can I ask such a favour of any man?
11882By the way,said Edward, as they entered the study,"that''s queer about that fellow Quaritch, is n''t it?
11882By the way,she went on,"I am sorry to have to talk of business, but this is a business matter, is it not?
11882Ca n''t you take it in hand and farm it yourself?
11882Can not the money be got anyhow? 11882 Can you find anyone who will?"
11882Come from? 11882 Confound you,"roared the old gentleman,"why do n''t you stop when I call you?"
11882D''Aubigne,growled the flashy man with an oath,"what do I care about d''Aubigne?
11882Did he?
11882Did she-- did she indeed?
11882Did the Squire get my letter, Miss de la Molle?
11882Digging, why where?
11882Do I? 11882 Do I?"
11882Do n''t you?
11882Do you know the old man?
11882Do you know, it is very feminine, but I would give anything to see you beat him?
11882Do you mean to allow this man to marry your daughter for her money?
11882Do you mean to allow this?
11882Do you mean to suggest that I should fight a duel with you?
11882Do you really care for me enough for that, Edward?
11882Do you suppose that it is more pleasant to me to talk about it than it is for you? 11882 Do you want to know?"
11882Do you wonder why I ask you this?
11882Edward,she said, in a strained whisper, for her breath came thick,"Edward-- I am going for ever-- have you_ no_ kind word-- to say to me?"
11882Father, what is the use of trying to shirk the thing just because it is disagreeable?
11882Father,she said again,"will you give me ten days, that is, until Christmas Day?
11882Father,she said,"do you wish me to marry that man?"
11882Girls have no head for these things,he said,"so what is the use of talking about it?"
11882Give him_ what?_"Why, kick him out, sir, for good and all, begging your pardon, sir.
11882Going to do? 11882 Has my husband gone?"
11882Have you got the ticket, Jones?
11882Have you nursed me ever since the accident, Belle?
11882Have you seen Mr. Cossey lately?
11882Have you walked up?
11882Here, George, where are you, George?
11882Hev he got yew, Colonel?
11882How can I take it in hand? 11882 How can I tell you what is to be done?
11882How can a few people playing lawn tennis hurt you? 11882 How can a skeleton sit and air himself?
11882How deep du it go?
11882How did he take it?
11882How did it happen?
11882How do you do, Belle?
11882How do you do, Colonel Quaritch?
11882How do you do, Colonel Quaritch?
11882How do you do, George?
11882How do you do, Miss de la Molle?
11882How do you do, Quest?
11882How do you do, Quest?
11882How do you do, Quest?
11882How do you know that I am engaged?
11882How do you know that I have been crying? 11882 How do you know that, Miss de la Molle?"
11882How do you know that?
11882How is he?
11882Hullo, George, are you turning prophet in addition to your other occupations?
11882Hullo, Quest, is that you?
11882Hullo,said the Squire,"who shot the woodcock?"
11882Hush,said Ida gently,"what right have I to judge you?"
11882I do not believe it,he answered;"and what right have you to say that I am in love with Miss de la Molle?
11882I suppose that you have heard nothing more from Janter, have you?
11882I suppose,he stammered,"I suppose that you do not care for me?
11882I wonder what curse there is laid upon us that we should be always doomed to seek what we can not find?
11882I?
11882If you please, sir, Mr. George----"There, what did I tell you?
11882In Dead Man''s Mount?
11882Indeed,said Edward indifferently,"what is it?"
11882Indeed,said Edward, in a changed tone,"and how did she take it?"
11882Indeed,said Mr. Quest;"well, he could hardly do less, could he?
11882Indeed; when are you coming back?
11882Is Mr. Cossey coming here to dinner?
11882Is Mrs. d''Aubigne at home, Ellen?
11882Is anything wrong up at the Castle, or is the cottage blown down?
11882Is he one of the great banking family?
11882Is he rich?
11882Is that it?
11882Is that the new gun, Colonel Quaritch?
11882Is that you, father? 11882 Is the woman there still?"
11882Is there no way of escape?
11882Is there no way out of it?
11882Is there nothing to be done?
11882It is very curious,he said;"have you much of this, Mr. de la Molle?"
11882Keeps his head?
11882Leaving? 11882 May I kiss you before I go?"
11882Meaning, marm?
11882Miss de la Molle,he repeated,"perhaps you will remember a conversation that passed between us some weeks ago in the conservatory?"
11882No,he answered;"what makes you ask such a question?"
11882No,said Ida,"for if he was, what became of all the money?
11882Not my father?
11882Not-- not Miss de la Molle?
11882Now what did he mean by that-- what the devil did he mean?
11882Now, do you hear that, Colonel Quaritch?
11882Now, where on earth have you been?
11882Now?
11882Oh, Edward,she said, catching him by the arm and turning her tear- stained face up towards his own,"you are not angry with me, are you?
11882Oh, there you are, are you?
11882Oh, why not?
11882Oh, yes,she said,"I am not going to dispute that, but what then?
11882Oh,Johnnie was saying,"so Quest is his name, is it, and he lives in a city called Boisingham, does he?
11882Playing a game, was he?
11882Quaritch?
11882Quest, I suppose?
11882Say? 11882 Shall you be long away?"
11882Sir,said George presently,"it''s Boisingham Quarter Sessions the day after to- morrow, ai n''t it?"
11882So you thought that you were going to play it down low on me in that fashion, did you? 11882 So?"
11882Something wrong with the Moat Farm?
11882Stop and dine, wo n''t you, Quaritch?
11882Ten o''clock?
11882That''s all very well, you duffer,she said;"but how am I to get at him?
11882The clerk says so, does he?
11882Then am I to understand that you give your consent to our engagement?
11882Then how can money be got if nobody will advance it?
11882Then she did it on purpose-- I mean-- is he dead?
11882Then what does the Squire propose to do-- take the land in hand?
11882To what am I indebted for the pleasure?
11882Um-- ah,said the Squire, dryly,"I have no doubt that it is beautiful, but is n''t the grass rather damp?
11882Very queer, Mr. Cossey,said he,"but do you know, I almost think that there must be some mistake?
11882Well, Colonel Quaritch,he answered,"have you quite done lecturing me?
11882Well, George,he said,"what is it that brings you to Boisingham?
11882Well, Quest,said the latter,"have you told the old man?"
11882Well, and what did he marry you for-- your pretty face?
11882Well, father, what is the matter?
11882Well, if he is all this, why did you marry him?
11882Well, sir,answered that lugubrious worthy, as he awkwardly took a seat,"the question is what is n''t it?
11882Well, well,he said impatiently,"what of it?"
11882Well, would you like to hear the end of the story about Sir James and his treasure?
11882Well,he said,"and who the deuce are you?
11882Well,said Harold,"and did Dofferleigh find the treasure?"
11882Well,said Ida, looking up,"and where is all that sum to come from?
11882Well,she said,"why do n''t you ring?"
11882Well?
11882What are you at there?
11882What are you doing there?
11882What are you going to do with that pistol? 11882 What are you going to do?"
11882What are you going to do?
11882What are you looking at?
11882What are you making that noise about?
11882What be you a- going to du now, Colonel? 11882 What business is it of yours?
11882What did I tell you?
11882What do you mean by that, George?
11882What do you mean by that?
11882What do you mean?
11882What do you mean?
11882What do you suggest should be done, Miss de la Molle?
11882What do you take me for?
11882What do you want me to blow the gaff for?
11882What does he want money for?
11882What does it matter? 11882 What does it matter?"
11882What does it_ not_ matter? 11882 What has happened to him?"
11882What have I to gain by fighting you except a very good chance of being shot? 11882 What have you been doing?"
11882What is it now, father?
11882What is it now?
11882What is it to you what I am or what I am not?
11882What is it, darling?
11882What is it, dear, what is it?
11882What is it, father?
11882What is it? 11882 What is it?"
11882What is it?
11882What is it?
11882What is it?
11882What is it?
11882What is such a promise as that? 11882 What is the amount?"
11882What is the good of asking me that? 11882 What is the good of making excuses and telling me what is not true, Edward?"
11882What is the meaning of all this, Belle?
11882What is the sum?
11882What is the use of my being cautious when you are so reckless? 11882 What is this?"
11882What is to be done?
11882What is to be done?
11882What time does the next train go--7.15, does it not?
11882What way?
11882What would you do, Colonel Quaritch, if you had killed the only thing you loved in the whole world?
11882What''s his game?
11882What''s the matter?
11882What, not gone to bed, Ida?
11882What,broke in the Squire, in a voice of irritation,"more lawn tennis parties, Ida?
11882What?
11882When will that be?
11882Where are the original letters?
11882Where are you going?
11882Where have you been this morning?
11882Where is Cossey?
11882Where is he?
11882Where? 11882 Who by?"
11882Who is it? 11882 Who said so?"
11882Who''s there?
11882Who?
11882Why are you looking at me?
11882Why are you looking so pale?
11882Why did I marry him?
11882Why did you frighten me so?
11882Why do I tell you? 11882 Why has he done that, as an investment?"
11882Why not?
11882Why not?
11882Why, Ida,he said in amaze,"what are you doing here, crying too?"
11882Why, what is the matter?
11882Why, what on arth hev you bin after, Colonel?
11882Why, what on earth are you going to do in London?
11882Why, where the dickens has he got to?
11882Why? 11882 Why?"
11882Why?
11882Why?
11882Will he die?
11882Will he live?
11882Will he live?
11882Will you be off, sir?
11882Will you be seated?
11882Will you please give that note to Mr. Cossey,said Ida, as the door opened,"and ask him to send an answer?"
11882Will you take a chair?
11882Wish you to marry him? 11882 Would it not be better to let the place go out of cultivation, rather than risk so much money?"
11882Would you?
11882Yes, but that costs money, does it not?
11882Yes, she is a spirited girl,answered Mr. Quest,"and what a splendid woman she looks, does n''t she?
11882Yes, sir, yes, for sure we must; but how be we a- going to carry it?
11882Yes, yes, I know, a matter of four thousand more or less, but where is it to come from, that''s the question? 11882 Yes,"he answered, looking her full in the face,"I did see her, what about it?"
11882Yes,said Ida, moving impatiently,"but why do you tell me all this?
11882Yes,said Ida,"what is it?"
11882You are not going to kill me?
11882You ca n''t come in now,roared the Squire;"do n''t you see that we are engaged?"
11882You heard me, then why the dickens did n''t you answer?
11882You know that Miss de la Molle will not marry him after all?
11882You never saw a masterer, that''s what you were going to say, was n''t it? 11882 You wo n''t believe me, wo n''t you?"
11882You''re going to give me a lift home, ai n''t you?
11882You, what?
11882You?
11882_ What?_he asked.
11882''Will you reveal where the treasure lies, or will you choose to die?''
11882( fortissimo),"where on earth is the boy?
11882A client of yours, eh?
11882Abandon her love, desecrate herself and save her father and her house, or cling to her love and leave the rest to chance?
11882Ah, wise resolutions of the quiet night, whither do you go in the garish light of day?
11882And after all what could it matter to him?
11882And how am I going to live till January?
11882And if I am in love with her, how can you prevent me from marrying her if I choose?"
11882And now it is late and I am tired, and what is there more that a woman can say to the man she loves-- and whom she must leave for ever?
11882And now one more thing, Mr. Cossey; I should like to know when you would wish this marriage to take place; not yet, I presume?"
11882And now what is there left to say to you except good- bye?
11882And now what was to be done?
11882And now, by the way, are you going to the Castle this afternoon?"
11882And now, marm, wo n''t you have another?"
11882And then there''s Ida-- Miss de la Molle, I mean-- what would become of her?
11882And what is the end of it?
11882And what of that?
11882And what was it-- a boundary hill, a natural formation, or, as its name implied, a funeral barrow?
11882And where do you come from?"
11882And who is the gentleman?
11882And yet how can I in common fairness ask you to answer that question?
11882And yet what was the meaning of that jointed skeleton sitting in the stone bath?
11882And, besides, who is to look after the farms and all the business?
11882And-- why do you wait?
11882Are you not pleased?"
11882As I was a saying to my friend Laryer Quest down at Boisingham yesterday----""Hullo, what''s that?"
11882Because Cossey has gone away-- or have you quarrelled with him?"
11882Besides,"he added, recollecting himself,"why should I interfere?"
11882But I beg your pardon, I suppose that he is a friend of yours, Miss de la Molle?"
11882But how did she know anything about Ida''s engagement to Edward Cossey?
11882But if he had cause for trouble, how much more was it so with Ida?
11882But look here, if he''s put in chokey, where''s the tin to come from?"
11882But what did he care for the summer- house or the oaks now?
11882But what will you have?
11882But where was it to come from?
11882But where was the lovely rounded form, and where the clustering golden curls?
11882But where was the treasure?
11882But, if this was so, whence came the un- cremated skeletons?
11882By- the- way, I have a few people coming to play lawn tennis here to- morrow afternoon, will you come too?"
11882By- the- way, you would like a glass of wine, would n''t you, George?
11882CHAPTER III THE TALE OF SIR JAMES DE LA MOLLE"Is that you, father?"
11882Can I come in?"
11882Can not you let me have an answer now, yes or no?"
11882Can you lend me your dogcart to drive up in?
11882Colonel Quaritch?"
11882Come, Squire, though you allus du say how as I''m a fule, what did I tell yer?
11882Cossey?"
11882Cossey?"
11882Cossey?"
11882Cossey?"
11882Could he be sitting on the money?
11882Could it be possible that she had died in Egypt?
11882Could it be that the look was the look of a woman maddened by insult and jealousy, who was meditating some fearful crime?
11882Could it be?
11882Did n''t I tell yer that Prowidence were n''t a- going to let this place go to any laryers or bankers or thim sort?
11882Did you say that you were going to see the Squire to- day?"
11882Do n''t you know that when everything else in life has failed them women generally take to religion?"
11882Do n''t you know that?
11882Do you hear me, Ida?"
11882Do you hear me?
11882Do you know what it would cost to take over that farm?"
11882Do you know what kind of man this is for whom you are giving up your life?
11882Do you still intend to marry her?"
11882Do you suppose such women as I am have any care for consequences?
11882Do you suppose that I am going to consider you?
11882Do you understand me?
11882Do you understand me?
11882Do you understand what I have said?"
11882Do you understand?"
11882Does n''t it fit well?"
11882Fairest Edithia, what means this?"
11882For had he not to stock the Moat Farm, and was not Michaelmas at hand?
11882Forgive me, but are you engaged to be married to Edward Cossey?"
11882George''to mind his?
11882Had the news reached Belle?
11882Have you done your catechism?"
11882Have you made up your mind?
11882He''s a lawyer and he might not freeze on to you; do n''t you understand?"
11882Hev the gale blown it up?"
11882Hev you a ladder here?"
11882How can I do it?
11882How can I help being jealous when I love you so?
11882How can I leave Honham?
11882How can I tell?
11882How could that thing move its head?
11882How did he find her?
11882How did it go off?
11882How much tin have you brought?"
11882How was he to account for this great hole to his gardener on the following morning?
11882How was it that he had not known those things that belonged to his peace?
11882I have had to pay him thirty thousand pounds, do you know that?
11882I may rely upon your discretion, may I not?"
11882I suppose there will not be any public engagement at present, will there?
11882I tell you I''m afraid of him, and even if I were n''t, I have n''t a cent to travel with, and if I got there what am I to do?"
11882I thought perhaps that was what you had been crying about?"
11882I want you to beat him if you can-- will you try?"
11882If so, how was he to face her?
11882If this was the case now, what, she wondered, would happen in the Spring, when steps were actually taken to sell the place?
11882If you have no care for your good name, do you suppose that I am indifferent to mine?"
11882If, therefore, this was so with her own father, how would it be with the rest of the world?
11882In another few months he had expected to be able to leave this place a wealthy and respected man-- and now?
11882In the second, he would be acting a lie, and the lie would sooner or later be discovered, and what then?
11882Is he an off bird?"
11882Is she a furriner?"
11882Is that understood between us?"
11882Is there no way out of this?
11882Is there_ no_ way out of it?"
11882Is there_ nothing_ to be done?"
11882It must be all rubbish; how could he know anything about it?"
11882It must be prevented at any price-- do you hear, Quest?"
11882It was from Belle Quest, and ran thus:"Dear Mr. Cossey,--Will you come over and see me this afternoon about three o''clock?
11882It''s all very well for Ida to go in for her tennis parties, but how can I think of such things with all this worry on my hands?
11882Just ring the bell, will you, and take a cigarette?"
11882Laryer Quest?
11882May I take a copy of that writing?"
11882Money can make most paths smooth to the feet of the traveller, and why not this?
11882Money-- honey, honey-- money, they rhyme, do n''t they?
11882My dearest love, what can I say?
11882Next minute he heard a voice, which he knew only too well, a loud high voice say from the cab,"Well, open the door, stupid, ca n''t you?"
11882Nonsense, Ida, how can you talk like that?
11882Nor was he mistaken, for presently a well- remembered voice shrilled out:"Who''s skulking round outside there?
11882Not only has he deserted you, but do you know how he has got hold of Ida de la Molle?
11882Not that there is much need to warn you to be in time when you are going to see Miss de la Molle, is there?
11882Now did you happen to see Ida in the course of your business?"
11882Now look here, have you got that fat pony of yours in the yard?"
11882Now, Colonel Quaritch, will you take my daughter?
11882Oh, you are not going to kill me, are you?"
11882Perhaps you would like to come up to dinner to- night?"
11882Quaritch said he was coming back this evening, did n''t he?
11882Queer place this, is n''t it?"
11882Queer place to choose for a castle, though, was n''t it?
11882Quest, perhaps; or was it something to do with Ida?
11882Quest?"
11882Quest?"
11882Shall I go on?"
11882Shall we say this time six months, that will be in May?"
11882She could not sleep-- who could sleep on such a night, the herald of such a morrow?
11882She started back, and her expression hardened-- then she stretched out her hand and said,"How do you do?"
11882Shut up, ca n''t you?
11882So you have been up there this morning?"
11882Stop a minute, would you like a glass of port?"
11882Suppose Ida was right and that it contained a cypher or cryptograph which would give a clue to the whereabouts of the treasure?
11882Supposing I go to a magistrate and ask for a warrant?
11882Take a seat, will you, will I look through it?
11882The Squire?
11882The question with him was, would she or would she not attempt to put her threat into execution?
11882Then looking him in the eyes again,"Are you engaged to be married to Ida?"
11882Was all this to be at the mercy of a girl''s whim?
11882Was he anxious to get the estate for himself?
11882Was he ever in the 105th Foot?"
11882Was he put forward by somebody else?
11882Was it a shroud, or what?
11882Was it likely that it exploded of itself, or owing to an accidental touch of the trigger?
11882Was there no way out of it, no possible way?
11882Well, and what comes of it?
11882Well, if it was after marriage, what would it matter?
11882Well, what did your young man do?
11882Were they, perhaps, directions as to the line to be taken to discover it?
11882What am I to do?
11882What am I to do?
11882What am I to do?"
11882What can you do to keep me quiet?"
11882What chance have I against her?
11882What chance have such as he against the Quests of this polite era of political economy and penny papers?
11882What could she do?
11882What do you mean by that?
11882What do you mean?"
11882What followed?
11882What had become of his fair prospect of quiet years sloping gently downwards, and warm with the sweet drowsy light of afternoon?
11882What is it?"
11882What is there that a man in his position can do?
11882What right have you to come prying into the affairs of a poor lone woman?"
11882What shall I say to Ida?"
11882What should she do, what ought she to do?
11882What should she do?
11882What sort of a ghost?"
11882What was he to do with himself?
11882What was the matter with the thing?
11882What will you give me if I find it out?"
11882What would you give to such a friend?"
11882What''s to become of me?
11882When can you tear yourself away, and come and give your E---- a look?
11882Where be those great moneys whereof you talk herein?
11882Where did you find it?"
11882Where for?"
11882Where go the sympathies between the parent and the child, and where is the close old love of brother for his brother?
11882Where on earth have you been?"
11882Who can escape the consequence of sin, or even of the misfortune which led to sin?
11882Who can say?
11882Who knows?
11882Who would ever think of looking for modern treasure in the burying place of the ancient dead?
11882Why did the brave old man wish that his Bible should be sent to his son, and why did he write that somewhat peculiar message in it?
11882Why did you come here at all this morning, just when I wanted to get you out of my head for an hour or two and think about my garden?
11882Why do you ask that?
11882Why do you ask?"
11882Why does one fall in love with worthless people?
11882Why have you been crying?
11882Why what the deuce was the man doing up a tree-- measuring it?"
11882Why, what''s the matter with you, dear?
11882Why?"
11882Will you excuse me, Quaritch?
11882Will you light the candles?"
11882Will you not take money instead?"
11882Will you step across with me and we can ask her?"
11882Would the matches never light?
11882You say that you detest him, why then do you marry him-- you are a free woman?"
11882You think that you are wretched; how do you know that I am not fifty times as wretched?
11882You wo n''t forget me, Harold, will you?
11882You wo n''t go away from this place, Harold, will you?
11882You''ve heard tell of the treasure that old Sir James de la Molle buried in the time of the Roundheads?"
11882asked Harold in a voice tremulous with excitement, for was not his life''s fortune trembling on the turn?
11882has there?"
11882he said cheerily;"sit down; what is it?"
11882he said, springing from his chair;"you tried to murder me?"
11882he said,"what is the matter?"
11882it''s Mr. Edward Cossey''s, is it?"
11882mean?
11882said his master, who was in high good humour,"did you find your man?"
11882said the Squire;"why what are you going to do there?
11882said the hag sharply,"and who the dickens are you?
11882she answered with a gesture of contempt,"what have I to be afraid of?
11882she answered,"and do you know who the clerk is?
11882she asked, with some return of spirit;"do you think that I would injure a wounded man?"
11882she broke in with a bitter little laugh,"shall I tell you why?
11882she said aloud;"I wonder if he has given me the slip?"
11882she said, opening her eyes widely;"who am I that I should judge you?
11882the Sir James who hid the treasure?"
11882there was but one way and that a golden one; but where was the money to come from?
11882what did the woman mean when she asked what he would do if he had killed the only thing he loved in the world?
11882what''s the matter?"
11882who?"
11882why?"
11882would you?"
482''Tis Mrs. Charmond''s tree, and I suppose we must get permission?
482''Tis natural, is n''t it, when one is going away?
482A plan for her not to marry well?
482A quarrel? 482 A what?
482About my getting to Exbury?
482Ah-- how''s Little Hintock folk by now?
482And how many can you make in a day?
482And shall I see you again?
482And the man she is talking to?
482And then?
482And those dreadful old French romances, with their horrid spellings of''filz''and''ung''and''ilz''and''mary''and''ma foy?''
482And what''s more wonderful than keeping your seat in a deep, slumbering sleep? 482 And why did n''t she marry him?"
482And you know all that has happened?
482And you wish to become better acquainted with her? 482 And-- not Great Hintock band, and dancing, surely?"
482Anything else?
482Are folk astir here yet?
482Are n''t you glad to get back? 482 Are you dying, Edgar?"
482Are you engaged to him?
482Are you going to have out Darling this afternoon?
482Are you hurt much-- much?
482Are you rested?
482Are you sure you have a snug place out there?
482Are you sure-- about this new law?
482At any rate she did not talk much about me?
482Ay, ay, Giles-- what do I call ye? 482 Bad for me?
482Because of the houses?
482But can it be,said he, suddenly,"that you really were here?"
482But can not you say?
482But could it not be a quiet ceremony, even at church?
482But father said it was ALMOST-- did he not? 482 But how can I meet him there?
482But how could you learn to do it? 482 But how''s that?
482But surely, ma''am, you know the truth better than I?
482But there''s something wrong-- eh?
482But what will my father think has become of me? 482 But who knows of the engagement as yet?
482But why are you not there now?
482But why do you persevere to make''em worse? 482 But you did n''t at last?"
482But you had hardly ever seen me except in the dusk?
482But you hate Hintock, and everybody and everything in it that you do n''t mean to take away with you?
482But,said Fitzpiers, gloomily,"what have we done?"
482But-- I suppose it is best to arrange like this?
482Buying you!--how?
482By whom?
482Can I be a prophet in Israel?
482Can I notice defects? 482 Can not you recollect at all what she said?"
482Can you open it yourself?
482Can you tell me the time?
482Can you walk on with me till we are quite alone?
482Dead-- SHE dead?
482Dear me-- whereabouts are we?
482Did Edgar tell you of this?
482Did he tell you how she died? 482 Did he tell you what for?"
482Did n''t you see me sitting there ever so long?
482Did she do it in her husband''s time?
482Did she walk lame?
482Did you cry Halloo?
482Did you ever hear anything of me from then till now?
482Did you know where he lodged?
482Did you say anything?
482Did you tell anybody?
482Different from friend Winterborne''s?
482Do n''t you think you will ever be happy, Giles?
482Do n''t you want to come in? 482 Do they?"
482Do you agree?
482Do you ever look at things philosophically instead of personally?
482Do you feel better?
482Do you keep up your lucubrations at Little Hintock?
482Do you know anything of Mrs. Charmond''s past history? 482 Do you know if it is my daughter?"
482Do you know the lady''s name?
482Do you know the way?
482Do you know, Robert,he said,"that she''s been accustomed to servants and everything superfine these many years?
482Do you mean Marty?
482Do you much mind that it was not?
482Do you think I''d better?
482Do you think it went off well, Creedle?
482Edgar, is she very seriously hurt?
482Father, what is the matter with him?
482Father,she went on,"can Mrs. Charmond turn us out of our house if she''s minded to?"
482For how long?
482For no other reason at all?
482Giles, why did n''t you come across to me?
482Go to Mrs. Charmond-- what for?
482Grace, my wife, my love, how is this-- what has happened?
482Has he a wife?
482Have n''t they a mill of their own?
482Have you been kissing him during his illness?
482Have you got the celery ready?
482Have you lived here long?
482Have you to sign a paper, or swear anything? 482 Having prophesied one thing, why did you alter it to another?
482He was detained, I suppose, last night?
482He was n''t alive, I suppose?
482Hey? 482 Hey?"
482Hey?
482How be you going to wake at half- past three else?
482How can I be married except at church, and with all my dear friends round me?
482How can you be sorry for me, when you wilfully keep open the grave?
482How can you speak so unjustly to me, Grace?
482How can you think so much of that class of people? 482 How could that be?"
482How could you want to quarrel with him?
482How do you come here?
482How do you do, Giles?
482How do you know that, father?
482How does she come there?
482How far do you come from?
482How is Grace?
482How long has it been introduced?
482How much do you get for making these spars?
482How much do you get?
482How the deuce did a snail get there?
482How was that?
482How-- what-- a remedy?
482How?
482I hope you do not feel over- much melancholy in being a prisoner?
482I s''pose the time when you learned all these knowing things, Mr. Creedle, was when you was in the militia?
482I think-- I heard that Mrs. Charmond had gone there to stay?
482I want you to walk home with me-- will you? 482 I wonder if you ever will?"
482I? 482 If you do n''t on your own account, can not you wish to on mine and hers?
482Indeed; what for? 482 Is he dying-- is there any hope?"
482Is he in great danger-- can you save him?
482Is it not good of them to welcome me so warmly?
482Is it part of a country doctor''s duties to learn that view of things, may I ask, sir?
482Is she ill?
482Is that blue vein still in my temple that used to show there? 482 Is that you, Grace?
482Is there anything the matter?
482Is there to be dancing?
482Is this her carriage?
482It is sure to be all right, I trust?
482Just as we be?
482Look at what?
482Lost his houses? 482 Matter?
482Miss Melbury,he said, suddenly,"I divine that this virtuous man you mention has been refused by you?"
482Mrs. Charmond has asked you to come again-- when, did you say?
482My darling, what is it? 482 Nevertheless, why should I repeat to you what you can easily divine?"
482No-- hey?
482No?
482Nor the loss of one, either?
482Not about me?
482Now have pity, and tell me: will you try?
482Now, honor bright, did you really think it was he?
482Now, why the name did n''t ye tell us''twas going to be a serious kind of thing before? 482 Oh no-- only that--""You mean that it must BE settled, since my father is coming home?"
482Oh, I suppose,she stammered,"that I am really free?--that this is right?
482Oh, Mr. Fitzpiers-- how can you ask?
482Oh, why does not my father come home and explain,she sobbed,"and let me know clearly what I am?
482Oh-- is it indeed you? 482 Oh-- you''ve had the doctor?"
482On his lips?
482Or do n''t you know?
482Shall I come round to you?
482Shall we take to the wood for privacy?
482She is not staying at Hintock House?
482She wants it to go abroad wi''?
482Since his fevered state set in?
482Sorry that you be going, after all, Suke?
482Suppose my mother had not taken me away?
482Suppose you talk over my head a little longer, Miss Grace Melbury?
482Surely it is the most respectable thing to do?
482That was it, was n''t it, Lucy?
482The admirer?
482The oil?
482Then Giles did not tell you?
482Then bain''t you coming home with us?
482Then did you know I was here?
482Then may I inquire why you came?
482Then perhaps she is staying at one of the cottages, or farmhouses?
482Then what brought you here?
482Then why must you needs say that about apples and gate- posts?
482Then why the d---- did n''t you, or get the old buffer to do it for you?
482Then will you step in- doors, where your dear will soon jine''ee? 482 Then you have n''t given up smoking?"
482Then you knew he was going to the House, Giles?
482Then you would advise me not to communicate with him?
482There''s folk left behind that you''d fain have with''ee, I reckon?
482There,he said,"you see that plantation reaching over the hill like a great slug, and just behind the hill a particularly green sheltered bottom?
482This muddling style of house- keeping is what you''ve not lately been used to, I suppose?
482To love you again?
482True-- WHY?
482Turn us out? 482 WE met, do you say?"
482Waiting for your dear husband?
482Was he clutching her tight?
482Was he really made for higher things, do you think? 482 Was it true?"
482Was it? 482 We declare it, do we not, my dear Grace?"
482We''ve been at Hintock as long as they''ve been at Buckbury; is it not so? 482 Well, I hope it is made up?"
482Well, Mrs. Cox, what''s the best news?
482Well, if you do, what then? 482 Well, then, why not give me a very little bit of your heart again?"
482Well,''twas his native home, come to that; and where else could we expect him to be? 482 Well; can I do anything else?"
482What are they?
482What are you doing here? 482 What are you doing that for, Marty?"
482What are you doing?
482What are you looking at?
482What are you thinking of that makes those lines come in your forehead?
482What can a man of that sort find to interest him in Hintock? 482 What did he tell you?
482What did my father say the solicitor had told him?
482What difference can it make, if she''s only the tree your rainbow falls on?
482What do you mean, my young friend?
482What do you think that is?
482What does it all mean?
482What has happened?
482What have I done-- what have I done for her?
482What is his name?
482What is it, father?
482What is it?
482What is reputation to me?
482What maggot has the gaffer got in his head now?
482What money?
482What sets you in this mournful mood?
482What shall we, shall we do?
482What snail?
482What were you almost in tears about just now?
482What would you have me do?
482What''s that?
482What''s that?
482What, and would you like to have grown up as we be here in Hintock-- knowing no more, and with no more chance of seeing good life than we have here?
482What-- another student in that retreat?
482What?
482What?
482When, then, were you betrothed to him, or engaged, as we common people say?
482Where did you meet him?
482Where, then, can it be? 482 Where?"
482Who are you making them for?
482Who can have made such nonsense of it?
482Who did this?
482Who have ye had talking to ye down- stairs?
482Who is that young lady I see talking to the woodman yonder?
482Who''s she?
482Who, indeed?
482Who-- Edgar?
482Whom do you mean by Tim?
482Why ca n''t the lady send to some other girl who do n''t value her hair-- not to me?
482Why could he not have had more principle, so as to turn his great talents to good account? 482 Why could you not let him come home quietly if he were inclined to?
482Why do you call me?
482Why do you go to- night?
482Why do you ruin yourself in that way? 482 Why do you say if?"
482Why do you think that?
482Why do you wear pattens, Marty? 482 Why him in particular?"
482Why is it settled off- hand in this way?
482Why need you not ask?
482Why not let Giles fetch her by himself? 482 Why not?"
482Why not?
482Why not?
482Why not?
482Why not?
482Why should she yawn?
482Why should you repeat what we both know to be in our minds already?
482Why the deuce do you sigh like that, Robert?
482Why, you scamp, what''s this you''ve been doing? 482 Why-- don''t''ee want to be happier than you be at present?"
482Why? 482 Why?
482Why? 482 Why?
482Why?
482Why?
482Why?
482Why?
482Why?
482Will He dance with She?
482Will you leave me to myself?
482Will you pour it out, please? 482 Will you promise to leave me quite free as to seeing you or not seeing you?"
482Wo n''t money do anything,he said,"if you''ve promising material to work upon?
482Would it startle you to hear,he said, as if he hardly had breath to utter the words,"that she who was to me what he was to you is dead also?"
482Would you act upon what I gave?
482Wronged his father?
482Yes, what is it?
482Yes-- why not? 482 You HAVE?"
482You are a native of this place?
482You come from far, seemingly?
482You do n''t think he would do it for me?
482You do n''t wish me to stay any longer?
482You have been to the house?
482You have n''t been reading them, Grace?
482You have never had one drawn?
482You have no wife, sir?
482You have-- got to know her?
482You know the tree I mean, Mr. Winterborne? 482 You know why I do n''t ask for him so often as I might, I suppose?"
482You mean Mrs. Charmond? 482 You mean, to lead him on to marry me?"
482You shall know all I know-- you have a perfect right to know-- who can have a better than either of you?
482You were caught in a man- trap?
482You wo n''t go away from me?
482You would like to have more honor, if it pleases me?
482You''ll be, then, ready, Giles?
482You''ll wait till you hear what I think of him, I suppose?
482Your father has not been too ill to work after all, then?
482''Do n''t know as I have,''says he;''have you?''
482''Well,''says she,''have ye got any news?''
482''What difference is it to you what becomes of ye when the breath''s out of your body?''
482Alas!--old Jones was seven miles off; Giles was possibly dying-- what else could she do?
482Am I to draw from that the obvious, the extremest inference?"
482Ambition?
482And so the question remained for him still: how should he remedy this perilous state of things?
482And the question is, where would you advise me to send her?"
482And those other books-- those piles of old plays-- what good are they to a medical man?"
482Another inquiry or two, and Grace said,"Did she ask for me?"
482Anything else?''
482Are you coming with me to what was once your home?"
482Are you not ill?
482Are you very tired?"
482As she did not reply, he added, with a gentler inflection,"You know why the mare was called that?"
482As soon as he came a little out of his fit, he gasped,"Oh, it is gone!--where?--where?"
482At a church in town?"
482At any rate she would take his arm?
482At last she said,"Well, sir, what excuse for this disobedience?"
482At last she said,"Who has been so kind as to ask me to ride?"
482At the top she gently approached a bedroom, and without entering, said,"Father, do you want anything?"
482Bawtree?"
482Between ourselves, I am losing my practice here; and why?
482But I have mentioned as much to your father, who has made no objection; and why should you?"
482But could he find it in his heart-- as he found it clearly enough in his conscience-- to go away?
482But could he go away, remembering what had just passed?
482But could she order this genuinely grieved woman away?
482But has n''t it cost me near a hundred a year to lift you out of all that, so as to show an example to the neighborhood of what a woman can be?
482But how do I know what Grace''s notions may be?
482But how does this awful thing come here?"
482But is there a yet greater humiliation in store for me?
482But life, what was it, and who was she?
482But oh, Grammer, how can you think to do it?
482But the scheme; I think it an enchanting notion, do n''t you, Giles?"
482But we can act honestly, and yet you can be my friend for one little hour?
482But when he paused she said,"Mr. Winterborne, can I run down the lane and back to warm my feet?"
482But where is Grace?
482But you are not going to refuse me now I''ve come all the way from Sherton o''purpose?"
482But, my dear Miss Melbury, now that he is gone, may I draw near?"
482By what right do you ask?"
482Can he live?"
482Can not you go without?"
482Can you come and see if you can persuade him out of his notion?
482Can you deny that you felt out of place at The Three Tuns?"
482Can you hide me till I am well?
482Charmond''s?"
482Could he have seen her write on the wall?
482Could he really be dying?
482Could it be that she might make of him a true and worthy husband yet?
482Could she call to her presence the very cause of all her foregoing troubles?
482Could she have been mistaken about his health?
482Could she order Suke Damson down- stairs and out of the house?
482Could you do that also, Felice?"
482Creedle?"
482Did ye ever hear anything about her character before she came to Hintock?"
482Do n''t you feel it a triumph?"
482Do you hear?
482Do you know anything about the new law that makes these things so easy?"
482Do you smoke?
482Do you suppose I do n''t see the trouble in your face every day?
482Do you suppose you''ll be in my way?"
482Family?
482Fitzpiers?"
482Fitzpiers?"
482For how can I go and appeal to the forbearance of a woman in this matter who has made cross- loves and crooked entanglements her trade for years?
482For how could a woman, brought up delicately as you have been, bear the roughness of a life with him?"
482For they''ll all be yours, you know; who have I got to leave''em to but you?
482Giles walked behind the timber, and just as he had got past the yet stationary carriages he heard a soft voice say,"Who is that rude man?
482Grace did not say"Why?"
482Grace waited an interval before she went on:"Did Mr. Fitzpiers take the way to Middleton?"
482Grace, shall I tell you the secret of it?
482Grace, unlike most of these companions of hers, instead of gasping and writhing, said in a trembling voice,"Mr. Fitzpiers, will you let me go?"
482Grammer whispered again to Marty:"Why did n''t ye go and try your luck with the rest of the maids?"
482Have I given any ground for you to doubt my first promise in that respect?"
482Have n''t I educated you for it?"
482Have you forgot all that, or have n''t you?"
482Have you found everything you want?
482Have you seen him?"
482He added with hesitation,"You know, I suppose, sir, that Mrs. Charmond is not at home?"
482He continued looking at the imprint, while he added,"Suppose she should be dying, and never make a track on this path any more?"
482He went up to her and said,"Marty, why did you write that on my wall last night?
482He''ll come down upon us and squat us dead; and what will ye do when the life on your property is taken away?"
482Her fortune has been told by men of science-- what do you call''em?
482Her husband might be brought in at any moment, and what would happen?
482His love- making had been brief as it was sweet; but would he on reflection contemn her for forwardness?
482How came he to do that?"
482How can any woman who is not a mere man''s creature join him after what has taken place?"
482How can he be clever?
482How can it be?"
482How can ye live in such a one- eyed place?
482How comes he to have a daughter of that stamp?"
482How could I?"
482How could he have dreamed of kissing her?
482How could she have expected any other kind of accommodation in present circumstances than such as Giles had provided?
482How could she know that he had just crawled out from the straw of the shelter hard by; and that the heat of his hand was feverishness?
482How could she so trust her father''s conjectures?
482How could they all have been so simple as to suppose this thing could be done?
482How do you like her house and her?"
482How does he come here?
482How does she happen to be riding there?"
482How long has he complained of the tree?"
482How should I know what folk mean if they do n''t say?
482How, then, could she stand our ways?"
482I am in hopes of having some good news to tell you soon, and then do you think you could-- come to me again?"
482I covered it up when she was gone; and when I come here and look at it, I ask myself again, why should she be sacrificed to a poor man?"
482I do n''t doubt but that she will be all right soon.... I wonder how she is this evening?"
482I have admired her infinitely, and I was coming to ask you if I may become better acquainted with her-- pay my addresses to her?"
482I have brought the money back-- will you please return to her the agreement she signed?"
482I hear that you lost your life- holds by the death of South?"
482I mean, is he clever?"
482I picked them up, and then--""Well?"
482I saw him go out; where is he gone?"
482I say, we''ll have a mossel and a drop o''summat to strengthen our nerves afore we vamp all the way back again?
482I suppose it is of no use, but I ask, can not you hope to-- find a little love in your heart for me again?"
482I wonder if it means anything?"
482If it were Winterborne''s, he must be near her; why, then, had he not visited her?
482If she encourages him, what can you wish for more?"
482If so, why ca n''t I see him-- would it be so very wrong?"
482If you did--""Would you give it to me?"
482In half a minute the window was opened, and a voice said"Yes?"
482In the evening her father, who knew that the note had come, said,"Why be ye not sitting down to answer your letter?
482In the haste of his project he had not calculated upon a cry; but if one, why not more?
482Is he dead?
482Is he dead?
482Is he here?
482Is he hurted very bad?
482Is he-- killed?"
482Is it something like that?"
482Is it to be a secret-- or do you mean war?"
482Is she almost ready?"
482Is there REALLY a new law?
482Is there not a path to it across here?"
482Lord, why ca n''t''em turn their plates bottom upward for pudding, as they used to do in former days?"
482Melbury wanted to ask her a dozen questions-- did she not feel jealous?
482Melbury, his heart throbbing against the other''s backbone, and his brain on fire with indignation, ventured to mutter huskily,"Why?"
482Mr. Melbury, sir, as a man''s that put by money, why not retire and live here, and see something of the world?"
482Mrs. Melbury said,"And is she quiet?"
482Must I tell verbatim, you simple child?
482My pure, pure Grace, modest as a turtledove, how came I ever to possess you?
482Not Melbury?"
482Now, Giles, as you are going to Sherton market to- day with your apple- trees, why not join me and Grace there, and we''ll drive home all together?"
482Now, darling, you will accompany me there-- will you not?
482Now, my dear one-- as I MUST call you-- I put it to you: will you see me a little oftener as the spring advances?"
482Now, shall we come in, or shall we go home and come back along in a couple of hours?"
482ONLY days and days?
482Perhaps you are deeply engaged?"
482Perhaps you are now?"
482Perhaps you do n''t know that we''ve a doctor living here now-- Mr. Fitzpiers by name?"
482Perhaps you''ve noticed that she''s got a pretty side to her face as well as a plain one?"
482Shall I do it for you?"
482Shall I tell you all about Bath or Cheltenham, or places on the Continent that I visited last summer?"
482Shall we not go out from here now, as it may seem rather fast of me-- our being so long together, I mean-- if anybody were to see us?
482Shall we read a psalm over him?"
482She added, playfully,"Man- traps are of rather ominous significance where a person of our sex lives, are they not?"
482She had married him; there was no getting over that; and ought she any longer to keep him at a distance?
482She had reached a gate, whereon she had leaned sadly, and whispered to herself,"What shall I do?"
482She must be somebody staying at Hintock House?
482She reddened a little and said,"How can you be so profane, Giles Winterborne?"
482She, reproachfully:"What, call Mr. Winterborne a fellow, Edgar?
482Should I tell more plainly?"
482Should she tell?
482So they went on, the leaf- shadows running in their usual quick succession over the forms of the pedestrians, till the stranger said,"Is it far?"
482Surely he has done it?
482The look of his face-- what had there been about his face which seemed different from its appearance as of yore?
482The question was, where should she get a medical man, competent and near?
482The weather is almost all they have to think of, is n''t it, Mr. Winterborne?
482Then another said,"What the devil is the matter with the horse?"
482Then why should you, by a piece of perverseness, bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave?"
482There was a dead silence of half a minute or so, till Suke said,"Why do n''t ye speak?
482There was a stillness as of death, till Winterborne asked,"You mean this, Grace-- that I am to help you to get away?"
482Unable to withstand her impulse, she knelt down beside him, kissed his hands and his face and his hair, exclaiming, in a low voice,"How could I?
482Upjohn?"
482Upjohn?"
482Was it at Delborough?"
482Was it not thinner, less rich in hue, less like that of ripe autumn''s brother to whom she had formerly compared him?
482Was it really Mrs. Charmond speaking to her thus?
482Was it worth while to go farther?
482Was that after the fall seen by the boy?"
482Well, how are you?"
482Well, where are we?
482What are you doing there?"
482What are you going to do?"
482What besides?"
482What could be the cause of it?
482What d''ye say so''s?"
482What did you think of the inside of Hintock House the other day?"
482What did your father say in that last letter?"
482What do you know about life and what it can bring forth, and how you ought to act to lead up to best ends?
482What good can you do to Giles by staying here with him?
482What in the world can a woman that does nothing be cock- watching out here at this time o''day for?
482What should he do-- appeal to Mrs. Charmond himself, since Grace would not?
482What so likely as that she is not yet quite well, and does n''t care to let another doctor come near her?"
482What terrible position am I in?"
482What was the use of his rushing back to Hintock?
482What will not women do on such devoted occasions?
482What''s the matter?"
482What, have you forgotten my voice?"
482What, my dear, and have you got home safe?
482What, then, had become of him?
482What-- am I in the saddle?"
482What-- cannot my father conclude it there and now?
482When I was a boy, another boy-- the pa''son''s son-- along with a lot of others, asked me''Who dragged Whom round the walls of What?''
482When are you going to enter on your new practice, and leave Hintock behind forever, with your pretty wife on your arm?"
482When do we go, Edgar?"
482Where are you?
482Where is she-- Grace, I mean?"
482Where to?"
482Where were now her discreet plans for sundering their lives forever?
482Who could have expected it?
482Who is she, then?"
482Who says I have won your daughter''s husband away from her?
482Who was Felice?
482Who would have thought such a business matter could have nettled my own heart like this?
482Who''d ha''thought it?
482Who''d ha''thought they''d ha''come so soon?"
482Whose could that emotional face be?
482Why could he not have proposed to walk with her part of the way?
482Why could n''t she ha''bode with her father, and been faithful?"
482Why did you come?
482Why do you pursue me?
482Why do you-- say that when you know better?
482Why had he carried out this impulse-- taken such wild trouble to effect a probable injury to his own and his young wife''s prospects?
482Why is that?"
482Why not make inquiries?
482Why should Death only lend what Life is compelled to borrow-- rest?
482Why should I not speak out?
482Why should he go farther into the world than where he was?
482Why was this neglected?
482Why, Marty!--whatever has happened to your head?
482Will you help me?
482Will you let him know this, that there may be no mistake?"
482Will you promise?"
482Will you think it over, and ask your parents if they are willing?"
482Winterborne?"
482Winterborne?"
482Winterborne?"
482Would it make you angry to know that I have been along this path at dusk three or four times since our last meeting?
482Would you like to undertake it?
482Would you think that each of these pieces of paper is worth two hundred pounds?"
482Yes?
482You are an Italian, or Spanish, or French gentleman, perhaps?"
482You can help me, I dare say?"
482You know what it means?
482You mean with a view to marriage-- of course that is what you mean?"
482You think there was something very fiendish in the compact, do you not, Miss Melbury?
482You wish me to come and see her at once?"
482You, so well read and cultivated-- how could he expect ye to know what tom- boy field- folk are in the habit of doing?
482Your father does not know that you are here, so I suppose I shall be bound to tell him?"
482Your husband used always to take you to the Earl of Wessex, did he not?"
482have n''t you told her before?"
482how can breaking it disgrace you?"
482me dear-- what''s the matter?"
482was she not indignant?
482what did you do that for, Creedle?"
482who hath bound the waters in a garment?"
482why did he not ride up to the house in an honest way?"
482why were we given hungry hearts and wild desires if we have to live in a world like this?
39238''And what has he done it for?'' 39238 ''Is_ that_ all?''
39238''Who?'' 39238 A Negro woman?"
39238A contest on Orlean''s place? 39238 A sense of humor?"
39238A son?
39238A sort of cabaret?
39238A suit-- want to obtain a judgment?
39238A-- ah-- how are you?
39238Ah-- ha-- who-- who-- who is th- is?
39238Ai n''t I done outlined it right?
39238And I venture to say that you have just about raised yourself?
39238And did you wonder at my calling your name that night?
39238And for that, for all that I have sacrificed, what am I given? 39238 And how about the women?
39238And how are the crops?
39238And how did you come to meet him, daughter?
39238And how is Orlean?
39238And how is everybody?
39238And how is everything about the home, my son?
39238And how long have you been here?
39238And how''s hubby?
39238And is it not a fact that Mrs. Pruitt as well as your daughter, explained it all at the time with satisfaction to you?
39238And last summer you recall how it rained?
39238And my plans are that you go over there, and see her?
39238And she paid for it out of her own money?
39238And since you have asked me, may I explain?
39238And so you are sued for ten thousand dollars,said the attorney,"and by your son- in- law?"
39238And the name?
39238And the rest of the family?
39238And then, forsooth, it must have been your daughter''s husband who was instrumental in saving the place for her?
39238And what did I do to him?
39238And what do you mean? 39238 And what do you think of him, my dear?"
39238And what followed?
39238And when you arrived you found her dead near the door, while your father lay murdered in the bed?
39238And when you arrived, what happened? 39238 And when_ did_ you receive my letter?
39238And where is my friend, Baptiste?
39238And you are not worth ten thousand?
39238And you can not possibly wait until next week?
39238And you could not pay it?
39238And you have me here and are caring for me?
39238And you would like to see this Jean Baptiste?
39238And you-- you have noticed it yourself?
39238And you?
39238And you?
39238And yours?
39238And, why, mama, do the preachers have no time for little boys? 39238 And-- ah, would it be possible for me to see and consult with him?"
39238And-- and-- you have no more to report?
39238And-- can''t you understand it, either?
39238And-- you-- you-- have just come?
39238Another beer, Cap''n?
39238Any coal?
39238Any evidence of a struggle?
39238Anything else?
39238Are n''t you coming down to supper, Orlean?
39238Because what, dear?
39238But I do n''t see the joke?
39238But I have guessed correctly, have n''t I?
39238But how came you with money? 39238 But how could you have missed the train so often?"
39238But is that the fault of protestantism?
39238But it was-- er, rather-- a little irregular, was it not? 39238 But we do n''t understand?"
39238But what-- what became of their mother?
39238But why did n''t you explain that Bill could stay home?
39238But you are going away, dear, and will surely need money?
39238But you did n''t come from there today-- this afternoon? 39238 But you have n''t answered my question?"
39238But you''re engaged?
39238But you_ did n''t_ see him come out of the house?
39238But, Agnes, how came you here? 39238 But, mama, why?"
39238But-- Agnes,_ why_?
39238But-- but-- why-- for_ me_?
39238By the way, Jean, why do n''t you marry my sister?
39238Ca n''t you loan the old man the money?
39238Can your father not understand, Orlean,he complained, with a deep frown,"that I can not accept his charity?
39238Come to what?
39238Could n''t dissuade him, eh?
39238Did he give reasons?
39238Did he say I could get up soon?
39238Did he?
39238Did it last until after you had left your bed?
39238Did n''t I say hush? 39238 Did you crawl through all that storm?"
39238Did you ever know a Negro preacher that was worth such an amount?
39238Did you exchange any words with him when you met him? 39238 Did you have any conversation with Baptiste after the trial in which he sued your father- in- law?"
39238Did you hear how he abused your father?
39238Did you hear me, Aggie?
39238Did you hear that, daughter?
39238Did you hear the news?
39238Did you love the man you were engaged to?
39238Did you understand the words or any words he muttered?
39238Do I look all right, mama?
39238Do I think so?
39238Do n''t they?
39238Do n''t what?
39238Do n''t you know that I have longed to see you, and that it has not been just right that I could not?
39238Do you believe these statements?
39238Do you happen to be acquainted with a family here by the name of McCarthy?
39238Do you love me, Orlean?
39238Do you recall it?
39238Do you recall the day when I forgot, dear,_ The Custom of the Country-- and its law_?
39238Do you recall, Mrs. Glavis, whether she screamed long, or whether it was brief?
39238Do you reckon your father understood the love that was between us?
39238Do you recognize my voice?
39238Do you think so?
39238Ever heard of State Street?
39238Expression?
39238For me?
39238From your father, you mean?
39238Granting that he secured a judgment?
39238Has a doctor been here?
39238Has she told you what I have been doing to her?
39238Has some one come between you?
39238Have I spoken rightly?
39238Have I, now, really?
39238Have truly forgotten that you are_ an Ethiopian_, and_ must share_ what is Ethiopia''s?
39238Have you ever considered the outcome in case he should get a judgment against you? 39238 Have you heard the rest of it?"
39238Have you rented your place yet?
39238Have you tried elsewhere, father?
39238He farms with his parents?
39238He was?
39238Her? 39238 His grandmother?
39238How are you, anyhow?
39238How could I forget it?
39238How did they come to extend the note, father?
39238How did you come to discover it, lady?
39238How did you come to get kicked, Jean?
39238How did_ you_ know it had just been committed?
39238How do you account for him having done so-- if so?
39238How do you feel? 39238 How do you like it in our country?"
39238How do you like it?
39238How is everything back home?
39238How is she?
39238How is that-- did you say that you_ drank_?
39238How long after Baptiste left was it, before you followed?
39238How long after the door slammed was it before your husband came?
39238How long after you heard her scream was it before you came out of the room-- your room?
39238How many of them?
39238How shall we explain in regards to Bill?...
39238How so?
39238How so?
39238How''s Doc?
39238How''s that?
39238How''s your neighbors across the road? 39238 How-- what kind of animal is it?"
39238Hurt?
39238I ask what you are doing at my house?
39238I can not understand?
39238I do n''t quite understand?
39238I have never lied to you, have I?
39238I have?
39238I think you have met him, have you not?
39238I wonder what he is doing here?
39238I wonder what he''s been saying to Orlean?
39238If it is quite fair, may I ask where or how your father came by such a name?
39238In New York?
39238In fact she was screaming still when you arrived at the door of the room, no doubt?
39238In what position, Orlean?
39238Is Miss Irene at home?
39238Is it not possible that when you heard the door slam, that it was your husband coming in?
39238Is it so, Jean? 39238 Is it-- it-- a_ woman_?"
39238Is it_ you_?
39238Is n''t it beautiful, Agnes? 39238 Is n''t it the truth, oh, my God, how can those people be so mean?"
39238Is n''t it warm tonight?
39238Is that all she received?
39238Is that so?
39238Is that so?
39238Is this the Greys home?
39238Is this you?
39238Is_ that all_ you saw?
39238Is_ this_ a fact?
39238It is not so?
39238It was not you?
39238Jean?
39238M- m. Was that the first time you had seen him?
39238M- m. You say this was your daughter''s place entirely?
39238M- m."How much do you plan seeding this season?
39238M- m."How old is he-- a young man?
39238M- m?
39238May I consult with your wife?
39238May I take your hat?
39238McCarthy?
39238Me?
39238Me?
39238Meaning that since she had gone and taken the land, you were morally bound to look into and consider the matter favorably?
39238Mother?
39238My folks?
39238My wheat?
39238Now I wish you would explain how you could be at fault for this contest upon your place, and why your husband accuses you of such?
39238Now Mrs. Glavis, do you recall having ever heard your sister scream before in a like manner?
39238Now there must be something?
39238Now where is your sister- in- law?
39238Now, look here, Reverend McCarthy,he said and his tone revealed his feelings,"what kind of a''stunt''are you pulling off with my wife?"
39238Now, young man,his mother said to him the following morning,"you will get into clean clothes and stay clean, do you understand?"
39238Now_ who_ do you reckon it was that interceded for me?
39238Of course not, now that I recall it; but did you tell him about it?
39238Of what?
39238Oh, Pearl.... How is Pearl?
39238Oh, baching? 39238 Oh, do you think so?"
39238Oh, is that so?
39238Oh, is that so?
39238Our race?
39238Out here, you mean?
39238Out where?
39238Papa,she said in her usual, but sleepy- like voice,"Is that you?"
39238Play you a game of Casino?
39238Say, Brookings,he opened,"what kind of deal is the old Scotchman up against out there?
39238See who?
39238Shall I hire a lawyer, Jean? 39238 So I do n''t guess I have it?"
39238So it came that you sacrificed the real love to be loyal to the race we belong to?
39238So that is how you came here?
39238So you serve drinks here, then?
39238So?
39238So?
39238So?
39238So?
39238Still single...."Thought she was engaged to be married when I was here last year?
39238That would please me if you would condescend?
39238The Watson place? 39238 The doctor, eh?"
39238The joke?
39238The wind?
39238Then how? 39238 Then we can contest it?"
39238Then what about their half brother in East St. Louis, eh? 39238 Then why do n''t you come on out here?"
39238Then why not you and I get together on this proposition before the trial is called?
39238Then you will?
39238Then, how can you expect their followers to be?
39238Then, when, Agnes?
39238Then_ what_?
39238Thinking? 39238 This is-- er-- rather unusual, do n''t you think?"
39238This physician attended the girl while she was confined?
39238Until you had left the room you were in?
39238Was Baptiste aware that such a knife was in the room?
39238Was it providence, or was it God that brought you that night and saved me from the slow death that was coming over me, Agnes?
39238Was it_ I_ who brought all this?
39238We have just become acquainted, but papa has told me of her, and the family, and I''m sure we will be the best of friends, wo n''t we?
39238Well, Jean,she said now more soberly,"just what shall I do?"
39238Well, are they as a whole?
39238Well, dear? 39238 Well, how''s Chicago?"
39238Well, how''s everything over home?
39238Well, now, coming to think of it, it would, would n''t it?
39238Well, now, to be frank, Duval,said Crook,"What do you think of it anyhow?"
39238Well, the house where he stops is just a few doors-- about a half dozen-- up the street--"On the same side or the opposite?
39238Well, what did they say?
39238Well?
39238Well?
39238Well?
39238Well?
39238Well?
39238Were those your folks I seen driving into town a while ago?
39238Wh-- at a-- re yo-- u do- i- ng a-- t m- y h- o- u- s- e?
39238What are you doing in here?
39238What are you talking about?
39238What are your plans, Jean?
39238What did he say to it?
39238What did he seem to think of it?
39238What did you do with your little wife?
39238What did you tell her?
39238What do you mean?
39238What do you think of it?
39238What do you think of protestantism?
39238What has been the matter with my little girl?
39238What have you been doing to my child?
39238What have you discovered?
39238What is it, dear?
39238What is it, dear?
39238What is singular?
39238What is the matter, Glavis?
39238What is the matter, Jean?
39238What is the matter?
39238What is there to understand about this wilderness?
39238What is this place?
39238What is this?
39238What kind of weeds are those?
39238What was the conversation?
39238What was the matter?
39238What ways, please?
39238What''ll you do with your horses?
39238What''s he calling to see Orlean for?
39238What''s her name-- this Negress? 39238 What''s the matter with lots of these nigga''men''round Chicago?
39238What''s the matter, Mother Mary?
39238What''s the matter, dear?
39238What''s the matter?
39238What, papa?
39238What-- what is the matter with him, Glavis? 39238 What-- why-- what''s the matter?"
39238What?
39238When did you discover this, madam?
39238When did you leave home?
39238When do they look for the Reverend in?
39238When you happen to think of it; will you try never to allow yourself to resume that expression--_that_ expression again?
39238When you left the hotel, where did you go?
39238When, to your knowledge, was Baptiste last in the house?
39238When?
39238Where am I?
39238Where are you?
39238Where did you meet him?
39238Where do you live?
39238Where had you been, and what time did you return home?
39238Where is Orlean?
39238Where is Orlean?
39238Where is he?
39238Where is my husband?
39238Where is the family and how many are there of you?
39238Where is your father today?
39238Where were they murdered?
39238Where would you like to go?
39238Where''s the governor?
39238Where?
39238Which way do you live from town?
39238Whiskey?
39238Who are you?
39238Who are you?
39238Who bought your daughter''s place, my dear Elder? 39238 Who else?"
39238Who has been murdered, and why am I accused?
39238Who holds the place, did you say?
39238Who is it out there?
39238Who? 39238 Why are you laughing?"
39238Why does he never ride in the daytime?
39238Why have_ you_ waited so long to take such action, Glavis? 39238 Why is it so?"
39238Why is it, dear?
39238Why must this be so?
39238Why not just go to one?
39238Why not, Orlean?
39238Why should I have done so when I did n''t feel to?
39238Why should it please you?
39238Why should n''t I? 39238 Why so?
39238Why so?
39238Why will he partake of the fuel he brought to keep from freezing, then?
39238Why would you want to do that?
39238Why would_ you_ want to see him?
39238Why, Orlean, what has come over you?
39238Why, my child, this-- this is rather sudden, is it not? 39238 Why, really-- when?"
39238Why,he suddenly exclaimed, his eyes widening,"what is the matter?"
39238Why-- Jean-- the man is-- drunk, is he not?
39238Why-- what''s the matter?
39238Why-- you have met my daughter?
39238Why?
39238Will Agnes tell me what has kept her so busy and away, I know not where?
39238Will they not leave one?
39238Will you kindly state to the court just what you overheard and know regarding this affair?
39238With what were they murdered?
39238Wo n''t you tell it to_ me_?
39238Wo n''t you tell me what the matter is, mother?
39238Won''t-- ah-- won''t you be seated?
39238Wonder why he does n''t marry?
39238Would n''t that be all right?
39238Would n''t you like to go to town, papa?
39238Would you care for it?
39238Would you like to walk down by the river?
39238Yes, what do you think of that?
39238Yes?
39238Yes?
39238Yes?
39238Yes?
39238Yesterday?
39238You admit to this, then, my dear Reverend?
39238You are going back home with me tomorrow, dear?
39238You are_ honestly_ happy, dear?
39238You did n''t?
39238You discovered this tragedy, madam?
39238You do n''t live here?
39238You have money?
39238You have not traveled far?
39238You have?
39238You have?
39238You infer that I have forgotten my troubles?
39238You mean, I--"Yes,she said slowly,"you-- we understand each other and everything that has concerned each other, do n''t we, Jean?"
39238You mean,she said, straightening curiously,"that you loved an Indian up there?
39238You met him coming out of the house upon your arrival?
39238You refer to me?
39238You refer to that case on Vernon Avenue, madam?
39238You saw this Baptiste leave the hotel?
39238You say you saw him going north of town?
39238You say, madame, that after you heard your sister scream you rushed from your room and to where she was?
39238You think so?
39238You want to do what?
39238You will awaken me early tomorrow-- say, six o''clock?
39238You will go back with me, and be mine, all mine and love me forever?
39238You will grant that the individual in the controversy would likely be able to judge more correctly with regard to values?
39238You will not go back today-- rather tonight?
39238You''ve agreed to forget it, father...."I agree again; but it''s outrageous that he should say what he did about Jean Baptiste, now is n''t it?
39238You? 39238 You_ think_ so?"
39238You_ think_ you heard a door slam? 39238 Your mother is dead?"
39238Your wife, perhaps?
39238_ Agnes!_"Well,_ why_ not?
39238_ Call this same number in about ten minutes, understand?_ Yes. 39238 _ Me?_""But I waited for your letter.
39238_ Perhaps_ fifteen minutes; but you are not positive?
39238_ Why would I want to do that?_ Humph! 39238 ''I just could n''t live out there in that wilderness, it was too lonesome,''''Oh, Orlean,''I said disgustingly,''do you expect me to believe that? 39238 ''What''s the rip? 39238 ''Who''re those girls living near the church?'' 39238 ''Why do you live apart from him, the man you married? 39238 *****What is this?"
39238A white man or a Negro?
39238After what Orlean said?
39238Am I speaking correctly?"
39238And how are you today?"
39238And how do you happen to be down here in the spring?"
39238And if even I believed you, how could I respect you?''
39238And it is not too much if one takes into consideration what you have done for-- I''ll be glad to go....""Done for what?"
39238And now that she was away, to his mind first came the question,_ why_ was she away?
39238And say, Brother McCarthy, what is this I read in the paper about your son- in- law coming in here and suing you for breaking up Orlean and he?"
39238And what did_ you see_ when you came out?"
39238And what do you think she had the nerve to say to me?
39238And where may I see you-- say, tomorrow?"
39238And yet, why was his wife in Chicago without even a letter from her to him; or one from him to her?
39238And-- when will that be?"
39238Another fence: who would furnish that two hundred and fifty dollars and secure him for the remainder?
39238Any knowledge of what kind of bill was rendered by him?"
39238Are the winters here as a rule as cold as this one has been?"
39238Are you here on-- on your_ wedding trip_?"
39238Are you in love with this man?"
39238At where I board?"
39238Baptiste?"
39238Baptiste?"
39238Baptiste?"
39238Baptiste?"
39238Besides, how did you know it?
39238Besides, what would he do with the books when he had them?
39238Besides,''I went on,''Why?''
39238Bill, however, not the least perturbed over his apparent breach of impropriety, became reseated, and resumed:"Well?"
39238Blanche''s mother?"
39238But Jean, do you want me to?"
39238But did that stop her mouth?
39238But did the Reverend?
39238But here we are, compelled to be apart, and by whom?"
39238But if he_ was awake, what was it he saw_?
39238But is it not a fact that Mrs. Pruitt, with whom you are well acquainted, accompanied your daughter on this trip?"
39238But it seems rather odd, does n''t it?
39238But maybe I am entitled to hear it?"
39238But the fact that others cultivate and heed such is no reason, dear, do you feel, that we should?"
39238But was freedom all?
39238But was she?
39238But what can be done?"
39238But what did he know of such?
39238But why was there no evidence of a struggle?
39238But you will do this favor which I ask of you?"
39238But, sweet one, when are you going to become my own?"
39238But_ could_ she?
39238CHAPTER X"YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS WAY BEFORE"When Agnes Stewart found her father and they were ready to return home, she inquired:"Did he see you?"
39238Ca n''t you take a joke?"
39238Christine was not there, he knew, unless she had come that day, which was not likely.... Then_ who rode the horse_?
39238Credit?
39238Did he speak to you on the street?"
39238Did n''t stop on the way anywhere?"
39238Did the editor not have a conversation with you before the article appeared?"
39238Did you meet anybody on the way?"
39238Did you stop and talk?"
39238Do I love you?
39238Do n''t you think that if I secured a good detective to look into it-- this case, it would be the proper thing?"
39238Do you realize, Agnes, had it not been for you, I-- I-- would not be sitting here now?
39238Do you recall of having ever heard your daughter or any one say what deeded land in that section sold for?"
39238Do you understand?"
39238Does your head pain you much?"
39238Duty?
39238Even had he been blind he could have known he was among them, for was not there the usual noise; the old laugh, and all that went with it?
39238Everything O.K.?''
39238Finally he heard himself speaking, and in a voice that seemed to come from far away:"Ah-- well-- did my wife have-- attention?"
39238For what more could he have wished?
39238Glavis glared at him as if to say,"Well, what business have you here, now?"
39238Glavis?"
39238Guess I may depend on you to be ready that day?"
39238Had n''t you heard about it?"
39238Had_ he_, done that, too?
39238Has any one ever observed the fact before?"
39238Has something happened?
39238Have you a''phone?"
39238Have you any idea who the plaintiff is going to use as witnesses?"
39238Have you any knowledge as to how many visits this doctor made to the bedside of this girl when she was sick?
39238Have you never heard of Jean Baptiste?
39238Have you never seen a woman who never changed her mind-- especially when there was a man in the case?"
39238Have you really not seen a colored girl in a whole year?"
39238Have you sent him word when he could?"
39238He caught his breath and held his hand over his heart, as he heard her voice:"Papa, is that you?
39238He lowered his eyes in thought as his lips muttered:"Wonder where he is?"
39238He petted her a moment and then, placing his hand under her chin, raised her head and said:"Well, now, my dear, what is the matter?"
39238He raised his hand to his head and was thoughtful, before saying:"Why were you so disturbed over me seeing the letter, Orlean?
39238He said-- well, I ca n''t quite explain, but he-- he wants to marry me, mama, and you know-- well, mama, you understand, do n''t you?"
39238He was not injured, she was relieved to see; but_ what was_ the matter?
39238He was succeeding in the game of reform(?)
39238He will be there over Sunday you say?...
39238How can it be your fault when you have sacrificed the nice home in Chicago for this wilderness?"
39238How could I get married?
39238How could I?
39238How did you make him understand?"
39238How do you account for or explain that?"
39238How far is that?"
39238How long would it take for her to be his mate again at this rate?
39238How should I know?
39238How were you impressed with him when you met him later at this friend''s house?"
39238How would he be able to face these friends if they failed to accept the book?
39238I almost beseeched you, because-- oh, do n''t you understand what is in me, that I am as all men, weak?
39238I hear they are parted?''
39238I said:''I do n''t understand you?''
39238I suppose I can count you as witness to the fact?"
39238I think it''s in your eyes; but I_ do_ understand that whatever it is it is something good-- it could n''t be otherwise, could it?"
39238I understand.... What do I want with him?
39238I wonder if he could board me?"
39238I wonder whether she will testify that she overheard your father- in- law abusing this Baptiste to his wife?"
39238I-- would like to speak to you?"
39238If he is still here, I will say:''this is the wrong number,''Get it?"
39238If not, then, where might I find her?"
39238If so then what would he write?
39238In hell and its tortures did you say?
39238Is it not reasonable to suppose that he would not know where the preacher slept if he had not been in the house for three years?"
39238Is it not so?"
39238Is she a single woman or married?"
39238Is that quite true?"
39238Is this it?"
39238It does n''t stop here; but you catch it and go to the station above here, do you understand?"
39238It does not seem reasonable to suppose that he granted her the privilege to sign his name to checks to secure money with which to leave him?"
39238It was rather singular, however, he now thought; for if such had happened, and he had seen it, then why had he not stopped the robber?
39238M- m. Then who purchased it for her, Reverend?"
39238M- m._ Your father_ had it cashed for you?"
39238McCarthy?"
39238McCarthy_?
39238Merley''s?"
39238Merley?"
39238My God, how could I be after what you have done to me, my life.... Why did n''t I come to the house?...
39238Not away down on that farm southeast?"
39238Now what would it all come to?
39238Now, supposin''you married a white woman and brought her here to Chicago, who would you associate with?
39238Now, what am I to do?
39238Now, what am I to do?
39238Now,_ are those girls_ straight?''
39238Now-- a-- who solicited that write- up?
39238Or was it her presence?
39238Perhaps it just happened so?
39238Presently he said:"How much do you have to have to go down there?"
39238Presently she said in a low voice:"Do you feel hurt badly, Jean?"
39238Pruitt?"
39238She called him:"Father?"
39238She had been trained not to...."Now where did you meet Mr. Baptiste, my dear?"
39238She says:''Is she sick physically, or mentally?''
39238She to her sewing, and Jean Baptiste to his thoughts.... CHAPTER II WHICH?
39238She turned to him, and said:"What are you doing here?"
39238Shortly she felt his hand upon her shoulder and she turned to hear him say:"Wo n''t you come back into the parlor?
39238Should he confess?
39238So he had arisen, that was sure; but why had he not come for his meal?
39238So you are home to dinner?"
39238Some you have bought since you have been married?"
39238Soon she heard him, as she clung to his arm, allowing her body to rest against his shoulder:"How much for, Orlean?"
39238Soon she said:"Do you play?"
39238Tell them that it had been rejected as unavailable?
39238That I shall return later in the day?"
39238That much money?"
39238That would be the first thing to do, would n''t it, Jean?"
39238That, I recall is the home of the Sioux?"
39238The melting smile she bestowed him with was quite sufficient, so seeing, he continued:"And do you wish to become his wife?"
39238The old fellow who moved out here recently from Indiana?"
39238The only question was, would E.M. Glavis have the courage to go through with it?
39238The question is--""Are they worth anything?"
39238The station I refer to is only four miles above this, and when you get off there, catch another train that comes in a few minutes back this way, see?"
39238Then why did not he, Jean Baptiste, act?
39238Then why should it be?
39238Then, to whom?
39238Then:"Are you married yet?"
39238There is nothing wrong between us-- never has been, nor between you and I now either, is there?"
39238Therefore, can I be forgiven if I say to you; if I ask you, Miss McCarthy,"and so saying, he turned to her, his face serious,"to become my wife?"
39238Thinking of what?"
39238This, this, do you hear?
39238Throw up my hands and quit, or try to see Orlean and get her around to reason?
39238To have her to talk to; her to tell the truth to and share what little happiness there was to be had in life, he became overly anxious?
39238Wanta go long?"
39238Was he aware also that the preacher occupied this particular room?
39238Was it all because Jean Baptiste loved his wife?
39238Was_ he_ the cause of what he saw in this girl''s face?
39238Was_ this_ a proposal or was it a play?
39238Well, here''s what it was, and I_ hope_ she said it:''Why, Ethel, how is Orlean?''
39238Were they not little boys once themselves?"
39238What about this?
39238What becomes of women who are deceived?
39238What did he pay for the place?"
39238What did it mean?
39238What do you say to it?"
39238What does she know about it?"
39238What does that mean?"
39238What happened next?"
39238What is there between love and duty?
39238What is your opinion, having been on the property, of its actual worth?"
39238What part of Indiana do you come from?"
39238What was it?
39238What was passing in her mind?
39238What was the nature of the land?
39238What you want to ask me such a question for?
39238When he had drunk deeply and lay back weakly upon the pillow, he heard:"How do you feel, Jean?"
39238When shall I bring her?"
39238When she met my eyes she sighed, and then said:''Do you think he can hurt papa, Mildred?
39238When will your father- in- law be in?"
39238When would the railroad be extended out of Bonesteel westward?
39238Where did she sleep?"
39238Where did you go, sweet one?
39238Where is Speed, and the wife of his you ruined?
39238Where is your sense of duty?''
39238Where shall we find him?"
39238Where would they sit?
39238Where?
39238Where?
39238Which?
39238Which?
39238Which?
39238Who could keep from liking you?"
39238Why ask me?
39238Why did he contest the place, my dear Reverend?"
39238Why do you not wear some of your summer dresses?
39238Why do young men call to see any young ladies?"
39238Why should I come to your house, when the last time I was there I was kicked out, virtually kicked out, do you hear?_""You get away from here!"
39238Why should he be seen?
39238Why should they be separated?
39238Why should we be keeping this a secret from him-- rather, why should I?
39238Why was it that they understood each other so well?
39238Why, why,_ why_?
39238Why?"
39238Why_ would n''t_ you be welcome?
39238Will that be all right, dear?"
39238Will that be alright?"
39238Will you-- can you_ prove_ it?"
39238With Jean?
39238With sudden impulse, she turned to Mrs. Reynolds who had not interrupted:"It will be nice, now, wo n''t it?"
39238Would it be worth while?
39238Would you like to look forward and feel that you had to go through all your life what your mother has endured?"
39238Yes, and where are my brothers?
39238You are hurt, do you understand?"
39238You are perhaps, then, newcomers here?"
39238You are positive Jean Baptiste, here, killed your sister, also your father?
39238You have come and, oh, I am glad, for I have waited for you so long._""How did he know my name and come to say what he did?"
39238You have her, is she not enough?
39238You have her, is that not enough?
39238You loved none of us, perhaps, and it was because you had not had the opportunity, maybe?"
39238You might have heard that Blanche is married?"
39238You never, I suppose, informed her husband regarding the_ transaction_ after the deal was closed?"
39238You''ll be so kind as to wait until then, will you not?"
39238You_ did n''t_ kill him, you_ did n''t_ kill_ her_--_you did n''t kill anybody, did you, Jean_?"
39238_ Me_, for murder?"
39238_ When the proper time comes._""The_ proper_ time?
39238_ Who was this man_ that he should call her name and say that_ he_ had waited?
39238_ Why had they left her?_ She looked at the photographs she held--_and understood_.
39238_ Why was she away?_ Oh, the agony this question gave the man of our story.
27A good few twins, too, I hear?
27A large farm?
27A strange vagary, this of hers, is n''t it, Oak?
27A stranger?
27A woman farmer?
27About Baily Pennyways?
27Affliction-- what affliction?
27After that, do you think I could marry you? 27 Ah, neighbour Oak-- how''st know?"
27Ah, when? 27 All I wanted to ask was, if anything had been heard of Fanny Robin?"
27Although he made believe''tis only keeping up o''Christmas?
27And did any of you know Miss Everdene''s- father and mother?
27And do n''t victuals spring up as well as drink?
27And have they done it as you wished?
27And hope to obtain you?
27And how Farmer James would cuss, and call thee a fool, would n''t he, Joseph, when''a seed his name looking so inside- out- like?
27And how is she getting on without a baily?
27And how was the old place at Norcombe, when ye went for your dog? 27 And it shall be the beginning of a pleasant secret courtship of six years, with a wedding at the end?"
27And must you go? 27 And now you are entirely at leisure?"
27And others thought so, too?
27And shall I put up the banns in my parish, and will you in yours?
27And she do n''t even let ye have the skins of the dead lambs, I hear?
27And so you used to do''em the wrong way, like this, did n''t ye, Joseph?
27And that story of the black man, who murdered his wife Desdemona? 27 And was that all?"
27And were you indeed?
27And what are the ties?
27And what are you?
27And what shall I do without you? 27 And what then?"
27And what''s the news?
27And you blamed me for it?
27And you do n''t believe he is?
27And you would n''t have him?
27And, dear miss, you wont harry me and storm at me, will you?
27Are any of my men among you?
27Are you a woman?
27Are you going across to the church, ma''am?
27Are you going in?
27Are you quite sure?
27At any rate, the large ones upon the stone staddles?
27Bain''t ye going to answer the man?
27Bathsheba-- darling-- is it final indeed?
27Beating people down? 27 Boldwood?"
27But I thought it was I who had to call you?
27But I--"Do you hear? 27 But about Fanny?"
27But besides that?
27But how can it give you pleasure to speak to me?
27But how could you chop off a curl of my hair with a sword that has no edge?
27But how was we to know, if you left no account of your doings?
27But is it right? 27 But is it safe, ma''am, after what''s been said?"
27But just now you saidties;"and then-- that woman we met?"
27But soon is perhaps never?
27But surely you will name the time, or there''s nothing in the promise at all?
27But there is?
27But they''re not gone to any war?
27But why? 27 But why?"
27But you ca n''t really care for a word from me? 27 But you know they think so?"
27But you might at some future time of your life?
27But you will leave off that, surely, ma''am? 27 But you''ll promise me not to go to Budmouth second meeting, wo n''t you?"
27But, Mr. Boldwood-- six years--"Do you want to be the wife of any other man?
27But, what are you going away for else?
27But-- Miss Everdene-- you do forgive me?
27Ca n''t you guess at all?
27Can ye go on?
27Can you ask Miss Everdene-- knowing as you do-- what my offence is based on?
27Can you do it? 27 Can you get me a lodging?"
27Can you jest when I am so wretchedly in earnest? 27 Coggan, suppose we keep this night''s work as quiet as we can?"
27Coggan, you can ride bare- backed? 27 Come at last, is it?"
27Come, madam, do you hear what I say?
27D''ye think the barn is safe, Jan Coggan?
27Dark as a hedge, to- night, is n''t it? 27 Dear me-- Casterbridge Union-- and is Fanny come to this?"
27Deceived? 27 Did any one tell you to speak to me like this?"
27Did anybody ever want to marry you miss?
27Did anything seem upon his mind whilst he was speaking to you about this?
27Did she walk along our turnpike- road?
27Did the men think it odd?
27Did ye ever go into the world to try and stop it, Joseph Poorgrass?
27Did ye ever hear such onreasonable woman as that? 27 Did ye notice my lord judge''s face?"
27Did you come by the carrier? 27 Did you hear the strange noise from the church yard?"
27Did you notice Mr. Boldwood''s doings in church this morning, miss? 27 Do I?"
27Do n''t any of the others know?
27Do n''t you see, it altered all the chances? 27 Do we?
27Do ye think he REALLY was out of his mind when he did it?
27Do you know her?
27Do you know his name?
27Do you know how late they keep open the Buck''s Head Inn?
27Do you know what they mean?
27Do you know where he is?
27Do you know who that woman was?
27Do you know?
27Do you like me, or do you respect me?
27Do you now?
27Do you now?
27Do you remember when I carried you fainting in my arms into the King''s Arms, in Casterbridge? 27 Do you think the barn is safe?"
27Farmer Boldwood?
27Farmer Oak-- and nobody else? 27 Father''s so old that''a ca n''t mind his age, can ye, father?"
27Fearful, did you say?
27Frank, dearest, is that you?
27Gabriel, will you stay on with me?
27Go, indeed-- what folly will you say next? 27 Got a pianner?"
27Has William Smallbury returned?
27Has n''t William Smallbury been to Casterbridge?
27Have I hurt you, mate?
27Have n''t I?
27Have ye heard any more about that?
27Have ye heard the news that''s all over parish?
27Have you any money?
27Have you been to ask them?
27Have you brought your flute?
27Have you done anything?
27Have you heard a different story at all?'' 27 Have''em again?"
27He got so much better, that he was quite godly in his later years, was n''t he, Jan?
27He saidWhere are you going, my little man?''"
27He''s an interesting man-- do n''t you think so?
27Hear it? 27 Her young man was a soldier, was he not?"
27How are you this morning, sir?
27How can I help pushing ye when the folk behind push me?
27How can I thank''ee?
27How did Cain come by such a name?
27How did you find me?
27How did you get here from Weatherbury?
27How did you know?
27How do you know that?
27How do you know?
27How do you mean which?
27How far is Shottsford?
27How far is it to Weatherbury?
27How long is it since you have been so afflicted with strong feeling, then?
27How long would it take you to make a shepherd''s crook?
27How long, miss?
27How many more times must I tell you to keep from running so fast when you be eating? 27 How much do I owe you-- that man in the corner-- what''s your name?"
27How much to you?
27How much?
27How old is he?
27How on earth did you come here? 27 How should I know her name?"
27How will you?
27How''s that?
27How-- indeed?
27How?
27I am not, upon the honour of a soldier"But why is it so? 27 I am nothing to either of them, and why should I keep her hair?"
27I beg yer pardon, but had she any young man court- ing her in the parish, ma''am?
27I believe she did.... Ma''am, shall I call Liddy? 27 I ca n''t do what I think would be-- would be----""Right?"
27I do n''t often cry, do I, Lidd? 27 I do n''t throw you off-- indeed, how can I?
27I hope I am not a bold sort of maid-- mannish?
27I hope you do n''t mind that young man''s bad manners in naming your features?
27I may speak to you again on the subject?
27I may think of you?
27I shall not be your mistress much longer, shall I Gabriel?
27I suppose you thought that when I galloped away to Bath that night it was on purpose to be married?
27I suppose you''ve been speaking against her?
27I think God likes us to be good friends, do n''t you?
27I wanted to ask you if the men made any observa- tions on my going behind the sedge with Mr. Boldwood yesterday?
27I wonder if I should have died?
27I wonder what a farmer- woman can want with a harpsichord, dulcimer, pianner, or whatever''tis they d''call it?
27I wonder who that is?
27I''ll thank you to tell me if I''m in the way for Warren''s Malthouse?
27I''m not so sure of that.... She''s a handsome woman, Pennyways, is she not? 27 I?
27I? 27 If I wait that time, will you marry me?
27If she''s-- that,-- what-- am I?
27Is Fanny taken away?
27Is it Sergeant Troy?
27Is it hers, then?
27Is it necessary? 27 Is it she?"
27Is it true that Dicky Hill''s wooden cider- house is pulled down?
27Is she alive?
27Is she altered much?
27Is she downstairs?
27Is she married yet?
27Is she pretty?
27Is that a dark lantern you have? 27 Is that the law?"
27Is that you, Laban?
27Is that you, ma''am?
27Is that you?
27Is the sWord very sharp?
27Just arrived from up the country, I think? 27 Laban?"
27Lots ofem, i daresay.?"
27Made up my mind? 27 Married?"
27Matthew Mark, did you say? 27 Matthew just said----""Matthew Moon, what have you been saying?"
27Miss Everdene and the soldier were walking about together, you say?
27Never mind-- do you agree to my arrangement?
27News? 27 Nor the little one by the stile?
27Now just suppose Mr. Boldwood should ask you-- only just suppose it-- to run away with him, what would you do, ma''am?
27Now, ma''am, and no offence I hope, I ask what dance you would like next?
27O no, ma''am, You the cause of it, ma''am?
27O, Frank, whose is that?
27O, Frank-- do n''t you know me?
27O, Troy, if you like her best, why then did you step in here and injure my happiness?
27O, must I? 27 O-- how is it?
27O-- what''s the matter, what''s the matter, Henery?
27Of course not-- what footsteps are those I hear?
27Oh, how can she be saved now, unless I marry her?
27Oh, is it Gabriel?
27One o''clock this morning?
27Please, sir, do you know at what time Casterbridge Union- house closes at night?
27Really, do ye?
27Rooted? 27 Sergeant Troy?"
27Shall I get you another cup before you start, ma''am?
27Shall I get you something to eat, and something else to put over your head besides that little shawl?
27Shall I tell her I have come to give her up and can not marry her?
27Shall it be to- morrow, Frank?
27She-- who?
27Shepherd would like to hear the pedigree of yer life, father-- would n''t ye, shepherd? 27 Show myself a man of spirit?
27Some of them?
27Some of your uncle''s old ones, ma''am?
27Sure of what?
27Surely you might? 27 Tells you all her affairs?"
27Ten and twopence halfpenny is the sum put down to you, I see?
27That sum to include everything?
27The next matter is, have you heard anything of Fanny?
27The spree is all in her honour, is n''t it-- hey?
27Them under the hedge?
27Then they think I am in my bedroom?
27There will hardly be time, ma''am, will there?
27There''s a chance yet; but I could n''t stay in town any longer-- after seeing him too, So Laban-- Laban is here, is n''t he?
27This is the second time you have pretended to dismiss me; and what''s the use o''it?
27This may be called Fort meeting Feeble, hey, Boldwood?
27Try to think him a good man, wo n''t you, dear Liddy?
27Very well then, Cainey Ball to be under- shepherd And you quite understand your duties? 27 Well, Laban, will you stay on?"
27Well, Shepherd Oak, and how''s lambing this year, if I mid say it?
27Well, have you seen him?
27Well, suppose I do want it for races?
27Well, what about Fanny?
27Well, what besides?
27Well, what did you see besides?
27Well, what do you mean?
27Well, what is it, Liddy?
27Well, what''s the message, Joseph?
27Well-- what have you come for?
27Well-- what?
27Well-- who gave it you, Teddy?
27Well?
27Well?
27What about?
27What did he do?
27What did he say?
27What did she die from?
27What did they say?
27What do you do on the farm?
27What do you mean?
27What do you say, Samway?
27What do you see?
27What does this mean? 27 What for?"
27What has been done?
27What have you been doing?
27What have you been saying about her?
27What have you to say as your reason?
27What is her name?
27What is it for?
27What is it makes you cry so, ma''am; has anything hurt you?
27What is it you are in doubt about, men?
27What is it? 27 What is it?"
27What is it?
27What is the matter?
27What kind of a person is he?
27What makes you think he has gone there?
27What may your age be, malter?
27What must I say?
27What shall I put?
27What sort of a man is this Sergeant Troy?
27What sort of a place is this to live at, and what sort of a mis''ess is she to work under?
27What way? 27 What woman is that?"
27What''s a- brewing, Henrey?
27What''s the matter, in God''s name? 27 What''s the matter?"
27What''s to be done?
27What''s yer hurry then, Laban?
27What, Beauty, and drag you after me? 27 What, did you think I should break in?"
27What, found out stealing anything?
27What, have n''t you a watch, miss?
27What, then?
27What-- that about Sergeant Troy being seen, d''ye mean, souls?
27What?
27What?
27What?
27What?
27What?
27Whatever IS going on, ma''am?
27Whatever is the matter, men?
27Whatever is the matter?
27When are you going from here?
27When did you say we must be at the door-- three o''clock?
27Where be ye trading o''t to to- day, then, Joseph?
27Where did you find''em?
27Where is Oak staying?
27Where is he gone? 27 Where is she?"
27Where is your master the farmer?
27Where''s the woman?
27Where?
27Where?
27Which pair?
27Which way have they gone, I wonder?
27Which, poor Fanny?
27Which?
27White as a lily? 27 Who are you speaking of?"
27Who are you, then, who can so well afford to despise opinion?
27Who did you try?
27Who has?
27Who is he? 27 Who is she?"
27Who is there?
27Who''s been telling you I''m clever?
27Who''s farm were you upon last?
27Who''s t''other man, then?
27Who''s there?
27Who, mem?
27Whose shepherd is he?
27Whose sweetheart did you say, Joseph?
27Why could you think such a thing necessary?
27Why did Troy not leave my treasure alone?
27Why did n''t you say so afore, then?
27Why did the base- players finish their game so suddenly?
27Why do n''t I?
27Why does n''t Mrs. Coggan go to the door?
27Why not ask him softer like? 27 Why not write to her?
27Why not, ma''am?
27Why should he inquire about Fanny?
27Why should he?
27Why should it be over so soon? 27 Why should we, miss?"
27Why wo n''t you have me?
27Why, pray?
27Why, ye''ve hardly had strength of eye enough to look in our young mis''ess''s face, so I hear, Joseph?
27Why? 27 Why?"
27Why?
27Why?
27Why?
27Why?
27Will you confine your words to that one point? 27 Will you tell Miss Everdene that somebody would be glad to speak to her?"
27Will you turn, Gabriel, and let me hold the shears?
27Would you be good enough to untie me and let me out? 27 Yes""To- morrow?"
27Yes, eight years-- and is it wrong?
27You are Farmer Oak, are you not?
27You are not a Weatherbury man?
27You do give it?
27You have the permission of the officers?
27You knew I should, did you not?
27You know perhaps what I long to say?
27You saw there were no other tracks?
27You see the artfulness? 27 You''ll marry me between five and six years hence?"
27Your ricks are all covered before this time?
27knitting?
27where''s the key of the granary?
27''And you''ll not-- press me-- about anything more-- if I say in five or six years?"
27-- Hullo, who''s that?"
27-- Shall I hear every word you say?"
27-- You want some more sheaves?"
27-- and are you?
27-- and how did she come to die?''
27-- it is, when shall we be married, Frank?"
27-- really?"
27-- then she has not been staying there as a regular inmate?"
27-- you I mean, Gabriel Oak?"
27-- you two alone?"
27... Just eye my features, and see if the tell- tale blood overheats me much, neighbours?"
27A man came from the gate and said through the fog, which hung between them like blown flour--"Is that Poorgrass with the corpse?"
27After all, how could a cheerful wearer of skirts be permanently offended with the man?
27Am I any worse for breaking the third of that Terrible Ten than you for breaking the ninth?"
27And Frank, when will it be?"
27And a good many others do n''t; for we should surely have been told more about it if it had been true-- do n''t you think so, ma''am?"
27And did you love him, miss?"
27And do n''t you know that a woman who loves at all thinks nothing of perjury when it is balanced against her love?
27And how do she play?"
27And how is it with you to- day, malter?"
27And is he really come home, miss?"
27And they say that she''ve not so much as spoke to him since they were at Greenhill Fair: but what can folk believe o''t?
27And where be ye trading o''t to now, shepherd?"
27And why then did you come here again?"
27And will you speak to me for these few weeks of my stay?"
27And you can mind the old well that used to be in the middle of the place?
27Anybody married or engaged, born or dead?"
27Are they satisfactory women?"
27Are you a woman yourself?"
27At length Oak said, I''ve not seen you- i mean spoken to you-- since ever so long, have I?"
27Ay, another time ye were lost by Lambing- Down Gate, were n''t ye, Joseph?"
27Ay,"How do you know?"
27Bathsheba burst out:"O Liddy, are you such a simpleton?
27Bathsheba did not speak, and he mechanically repeated in an abashed and sad voice,--"Do you want a shepherd, ma''am?"
27Bathsheba was decidedly disconcerted,"Well, then, why did you come and disturb me?"
27Bathsheba, suppose you had real complete proof that you are what, in fact, you are-- a widow-- would you repair the old wrong to me by marrying me?"
27Be ye any of Boldwood''s workfolk?"
27Besides, we are not engaged in the usual sense, are we?
27Boldwood added, after an interval of silence:"What did you ask, Oak?"
27Boldwood approached Gabriel, and as Oak tied the neckerchief the farmer went on feverishly--"Does a woman keep her promise, Gabriel?"
27Boldwood mistook his confusion: sensitive persons are always ready with their"Is it I?"
27Boldwood?"
27Boldwood?"
27Boldwood?"
27Boldwood?"
27But could she go on to Liddy''s and leave things to take their course?
27But do n''t talk of it-- seven or six years-- where may we all be by that time?"
27But he feared to bring distress- ing memories back, and interrupted himself with:"Were you going into church?"
27But is it wrong?
27But not a man of spirit?
27But since the case is so sad and oddlike, why do n''t ye give the conditional promise?
27But since we do n''t exactly know what he is, why not behave as if he MIGHT be bad, simply for your own safety?
27But surely you must have been told by everybody of what everybody notices?
27But what''s yer hurry, Joseph?
27But why should such a fair and dutiful girl have such an aversion to her father''s sex?"
27But would n''t it have been different, or should n''t I have heard more, or would n''t they have found him, Liddy?
27CHAPTER XLIII FANNY''S REVENGE"DO you want me any longer ma''am?"
27Ca n''t my hair be brushed down a little flatter?
27Ca n''t you read riddles?
27Ca n''t you see?
27Can I do anything to help?
27Can I?"
27Can a man fooled to utter heart- burning find a reason for being merry> If I have lost, how can I be as if I had won?
27Can you deny it-- I ask, can you deny it?"
27Can you still go on re- minding me?"
27Casterbridge Union?"
27Concerning the flock?
27Could it be that of the only venturesome woman in the parish-- Bathsheba?
27Could she have been entrapped?
27D''ye know if she''s got any other young man hanging about her at all?"
27D''ye think I''d turn after that?
27Dark?
27Dialogues followed, more or lessin the subjoined for:--"Where do you come from?"
27Did n''t you think it might be me?"
27Did ye know''en, shepherd-- a bachelor- man?"
27Do Ye know of anybody who wants one?"
27Do n''t deny me the happiness of wearing it for my sake?
27Do n''t you yet know enough of me to see through that miserable denial of mine?
27Do not quite refuse?"
27Do ye foller me?"
27Do you hear?"
27Do you hear?"
27Do you hear?"
27Do you heed me, neighbours?
27Do you know at all who he could be?"
27Do you know?
27Do you think of going there to- night?"
27Do you understand me?
27Father, what sort of people were mis''ess''father and mother?"
27Fifteen months nearly have passed since he vanished, and is there anything so wonderful in an engagement of little more than five years?"
27For ye see, shepherd, though''tis very well for a woman, dang it all,''tis awkward for a man like him, poor feller?"
27Gabriel shouted in his ear,"where''s your thatching- beetle and rick- stick and spars?"
27Going in?"
27Had he a moustache-- no whiskers or beard?"
27Had he done this intentionally, yet contrived to make his death appear like an accident?
27Had n''t I the first place beside you?
27Has there been any change in mistress this afternoon?"
27Have I ever allowed the toe of pride to be lifted against my hinder parts without groaning manfully that I question the right to do so?
27Have n''t you been almost mine once already?
27Have you ever seen the play of"Turpin''s Ride to York?"
27Have you found out whether she has encouraged him?"
27Have you run me through?
27Have you the registrar''s certificate?"
27He carelessly said,"And am I to have anything now?"
27He fur- tively said to a neighbour,"Is Miss Everdene considered handsome?"
27He picked it up-- surely it could not be one of the primroses he had planted?
27He said mechanically,"Ah, why?"
27He smoked on awhile, and then added,"How did she look when you passed by yesterday?"
27Henery said,"and Shepherd Oak do n''t mind his youth?"
27Her mouth-- were the lips red or pale, plump or creased?
27How came he to say that?"
27How can I expect more?
27How can you have the cruel heart to repeat what they say?
27How come you to leave your last farm?"
27How did she get here?"
27How did this remarkable reappearance effect itself when he was supposed by many to be at the bottom of the sea?
27How do you know it would suit me?
27How long has she lived there?"
27How much is that?"
27How shall I get you to see how advan- tageous it will be to you to secure her at once?"
27How was I to know that what is a pastime to all other men was death to you?
27How would the farm go on with nobody to mind it but a woman?
27How?"
27However, does a woman keep a promise, not to marry, but to enter on an engagement to marry at some time?
27However, my son William must have knowed the very man afore us-- did n''t ye, Billy, afore ye left Norcombe?"
27I am so distressed about it-- can we save it any- how?
27I fancy I heard his voice late last night; and so, knowing something was wrong----""Is he at home?"
27I have never done you a single kindness, and why should you be so kind to me?"
27I inquire that query boldly?"
27I lived through the summers, did n''t I?
27I suppose ye''ll say next I be no age at all to speak of?"
27If she were to go to him now at once and say no more than these few words,!What is the truth of the story?"
27In the course of the afternoon she said to Liddy, Who had been informed of the occurrence,"What was the colour of poor Fanny Robin''s hair?
27In the evening Troy said, suddenly--"Bathsheba, could you let me have twenty pounds?"
27Indeed it is; how can you tell such a story, Liddy?
27Is he with you?"
27Is it true?"
27Is n''t it, Joseph?"
27Is that she there?"
27Is there any late knot in fashion, Oak?"
27It ought to be something extraordinary, ought it not, Liddy?
27Jacob had served twice seven years for Rachel: what were six for such a woman as this?
27Laban Tall, you''ll stay on working for me?"
27Let''s look into Warren''s for a few minutes first, shall us, neighbours?"
27Liddy looking at it said,--"Did you ever find out, miss, who you are going to marry by means of the Bible and key?,"Do n''t be so foolish, Liddy.
27Liddy then ventured to add:"You said when I first found you that you might never go home again-- you did n''t mean it, ma''am?"
27May I ask what dreadful thing it is that has happened between you and him?"
27May I call in the evening, or will you walk along with me o''Sundays?
27Might I not?"
27Now after that revelation of how the land lies with Bathsheba,''twould be a mistake to kill me, would it not?"
27Now whose was it?
27Now you are not afraid, are you?
27Now, before all the work- folk here assembled, can you swear to your words as the shep- herd asks ye?"
27Now, dear Frank, when shall it be?"
27Now, do you see the matter in a new light?"
27Now, is n''t it preposterous, Gabriel?
27Now, will you do this?"
27O my darling, my darling, why do you keep me in suspense like this?"
27O sir, will you not kindly forgive me, and look at it cheerfully?"
27Oak is head man still, is n''t he?"
27Oak?"
27Oak?"
27Pennyways snuffed the candle, and then looked up and deliberately inspected Troy"You''ve made up your mind to go then?"
27Perhaps it is improper?
27Really forgotten?
27Rich and gentlemanly, what does he care?"
27Said that, did he?"
27Samway whispered,"have ye heard this strange tale?"
27Seeing she made no reply, he said,"Do you read French?"
27Seeing she turned a little aside, he said,"What, are you afraid of me?"
27Shall I beg to a man who has begged to me?"
27Shall I go and say you''ve come?"
27She breathed; and then said mournfully:"O what shall I do?
27She fleed at him like a cat-- never such a tomboy as she is-- of course I speak with closed doors?"
27She interrupted with--"l wonder if Fanny is gone by this time?"
27She said more distinctly,"Will you leave me alone now?
27She suddenly exclaimed in an impulsive and excited whisper, Have you heard anything strange said of Fanny?"
27She then broke out--"I may ask, I suppose, where in particular my unworthiness lies?
27She was no otherwise than a girl mind, and how could she tell what the man was made of?
27Should he go on, and care nothing?
27Suppose we walk about in this wood?"
27Surely I can do something?"
27Surely you can say to me as much as this, you will have me back again should circumstances permit?
27Tall appeared, and joined them"Well?"
27Temperance Miller-- oh, here''s another, Soberness-- both women I suppose?"
27That was n''t too strong for her, say?"
27That''s it, is it not?
27The dialogue went on:"How did you come here?"
27The door opened, and a deep voice said--"Is Miss Everdene at home?"
27The poor woman is dead, is n''t she, and what''s your hurry?"
27The question of which was right being tacitly waived by the company, Jan went on meditatively:--"And he''s the fearfullest man, bain''t ye, Joseph?
27The woman''s past us-- time spent upon her is throwed away: why should we hurry to do what''s not required?
27Then how had Troy got there?
27There''s nothing remarkable in my saying so, is there?
27Those of the farmers with whom she had no dealings by far the greater part) were continually asking each other,"Who is she?"
27To speak like a book I once read, wet weather is the narrative, and fine days are the episodes, of our country''s history; now, is n''t that true?"
27Troy been in to- night?"
27Troy says so?
27Troy, you will marry again some day?"
27Troy-- you are not going?"
27Troy?
27Troy?
27Troy?"
27Troy?"
27Turpin was a real man, was he not?"
27Twenty pounds?
27Understand?
27V"How do I look to- night, Liddy?"
27VII"How does this cover me?"
27Was he mad-- had there been a quarrel?
27Was his life so valuable to him after all?
27Was she really beautiful?
27Well, he''s turned out neck and crop, and my question is, who''s going to be baily now?"
27Well, now then"-- she looked into the book--"Joseph Poorgrass, are you there?"
27Well, what is there besides?
27Well, will you let me work in your fields?"
27Were n''t I stale in wedlock afore ye were out of arms?
27What are they?"
27What are you doing?
27What did it matter about her not knowing it?
27What did you say that for?"
27What difference does it make whose sweetheart she is, since she ca n''t be yours?"
27What do you think I have to say, then?
27What does that mean?"
27What girl are you?"
27What had become of Boldwood?
27What is it like?
27What is it to me what he is?
27What put that into your head?"
27What shall I do to pass the heavy time away?"
27What should she do now?
27What then?"
27What was the colour of Fanny Robin''s hair?"
27What was this the light revealed to him?
27What were his prospects that he should be so chary of running risk, when important and urgent labour could not be carried on without such risk?
27What will ye say next?"
27What''s that prancing?
27What''s this?
27What''s to be done?"
27What, then, were you following me?"
27Whatever shall I do?"
27When did she pass Weatherbury?"
27Where are you going to- night?
27Where are your pleasant words all gone-- your earnest hope to be able to love me?
27Where could she find such a friend?
27Where does he get his airs?
27Where had he come from?
27Where is your firm conviction that you would get to care for me very much?
27Which seal shall we use?
27Whither should he go?"
27Who am I, then, to be treated like that?
27Who can he have?"
27Who sent you-- anybody?"
27Who''s the fool now?"
27Who?"
27Whose should it be?
27Why could n''t you have passed by me that night, and said nothing?
27Why did n''t he stop at the gate?
27Why did n''t you write to me?"
27Why did''t he win you away before, when nobody would have been grieved?
27Why do n''t you sit upstairs, ma''am?"
27Why do you say that?"
27Why had it been so mysteriously managed?
27Why is it?"
27Why must you meet her?"
27Why should I read dismal books, indeed?
27Why should she have done that strange thing?
27Why should she have imagined him?
27Why should you say that?"
27Why ye know I would n''t harm a worm-- no, not one underground worm?"
27Why, Gabriel, what are you going to do that for?"
27Why, my boy Jacob there and your father were sworn brothers-- that they were sure-- were n''t ye, Jacob?"
27Will it be by banns or license?"
27Will you come and see me to- morrow, at Mrs. Twills''s, in North Street?
27Will you come to the house?"
27Will you kindly show me how to fix them properly?"
27Will you let the matter rest now?
27Will you marry me?
27Will you now return, please?"
27Will you read this a moment?
27Will you sit down, please?
27Would Miss Everdene sing to them the song she always sang so charmingly--"The Banks of Allan Water"-- before they went home?
27Would you have had me a woman of clay when you paid me that furthest, highest compliment a man can pay a woman-- telling her he loves her?
27Would you mind going on and leaving me?
27Yer teeth bain''t half gone yet; and what''s a old man''s standing if se be his teeth bain''t gone?
27Yielding women?"
27You all know, neighbours, what a man I be, and how I come down with my powerful words when my pride is boiling wi''scarn?"
27You are glad to see me, Frank?"
27You are quite sure you will not hurt me?"
27You are sure''twas she?
27You bain''t well, ma''am, surely?
27You can mind, Jacob?
27You do n''t repent because you already love somebody better than you love me, do you?"
27You have got quite cynical lately-- how is it?
27You have never seen it played, I suppose?"
27You know''em, Jan?
27You''ll burn it, wo n''t you, Frank?"
27and I said,"To Miss Everdene''s please,"and he said,"She is a staid woman, is n''t she, my little man?"
27and will you shake them in for me?"
27attested Jan must have a wonderful talented constitution to be able to live so long, must n''t he, neighbours?"
27do you?"
27exclaimed she, disconcerted,"how long have you been here?"
27he added, making move- ments associated with states of mind rather than body;"we wish we were, do n''t we, neighbours?"
27he said, with unreal carelessness,"if you know whose writing this is?"
27is it kind to me to throw my mistake in my face?
27is it?"
27must n''t a lady move an inch from her door without being dogged like a thief?"
27said Gabriel restlessly,"can you swear in the most awful form that the woman you saw was Miss Everdene?"
27said Gabriel, impatiently,"what did you see, Cain?"
27said Gabriel,"that I only stepped ath''art to say that a heavy rain is sure to fall soon, and that something should be done to protect the ricks?"
27said Oak, sternly,"why will you run so fast and lose your breath so?
27said Troy, as if inspired by a recollec- tion"do you know if insanity has ever appeared in Mr. Boldwood''s family?"
27said she, though with- out pulling it away"But I suppose you are thinking you would like to kiss it?
27said she,"will you move again, please, and let Mr. Boldwood come there?"
27she inquired quietly,"where are you going?"
27she said, quickly"What do you regret?"
27take it careless- like, shepherd and your time will come tired?"
27what do you want here?"
27what have you been doing bringing trouble upon me in this way?
27what in the name of fortune did you pretend to be Laban for?"
27who for, miss?"
27who''s dead?"
27would you like to?"
