416 | You think that? 416 Your life is still bound up with the life of this town?" |
416 | And was he not our superior? |

416 | Now what is decay? |
416 | Now you quit it, do you hear?" |
416 | Only I guess you''ll have to wake up to do that too, eh?" |
416 | Or does he feel that he is sketching an inescapable human condition which makes all of us bear the burden of loneliness? |
416 | Or especially in Winesburg? |
416 | Shall I do it or shall I tell Nell to go to the devil? |
416 | Shall I marry and settle down? |
416 | Shall I put myself into the harness to be worn out like an old horse? |
416 | Something drove him to write, perhaps one of those shapeless hungers-- a need for self- expression? |

5991 | Well? |
5991 | What do I care what people think? |
5991 | What medicine was it? |
5991 | When was it out last? |
5991 | Who is it? |
5991 | Why, what is happening? |
5991 | Why, you most blessed of babies,I exclaimed, kneeling down and putting my arms round her,"what in the world is the matter?" |

5991 | _ Why_ would n''t they go? |
5991 | And here I feel constrained to inquire sternly who I am that I should talk in this unbecoming manner of Carlyle? |

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

16258 | Fleeces? |
16258 | Had I not better tell the truth?" |
16258 | Had we not better go home?" |
16258 | Harry was quite satisfied with the exchange, and what had other people to do with his affairs? |
16258 | Has Harry written to you?" |
16258 | Has he made any difference between you and me? |
16258 | Have you heard a word about Steve''s father? |
16258 | Have you told Charlotte?" |
16258 | Have you told father?" |
16258 | He 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? |
16258 | He did not answer until they had walked some distance; then he asked meaningly,"Has it come to that? |
16258 | How can I help? |
16258 | How can a woman tell?" |
16258 | How can they? |
16258 | How can you treat me so? |
16258 | How could Harry behave so shamefully to us all?" |
16258 | How could I pray for him, if I forgot him? |
16258 | How could I tell there was danger at Up- Hill? |
16258 | How do I look?" |
16258 | How do all at home do?" |
16258 | How 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? |
16258 | How is the lady at Up- Hill?" |
16258 | How soon do you wish us to leave?" |
16258 | However, if he was not making love to you at the shearing, wo n''t you find it a bit difficult to speak your mind? |
16258 | I mean she is not uneducated or unladylike?" |
16258 | I should like to hear about Joe and the_ what_?" |
16258 | If Harry should come back-- what of Harry? |
16258 | If I am not to encourage Stephen Latrigg, do you want me to marry Julius Sandal?" |
16258 | If 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''? |
16258 | If winter comes, can spring be far behind?''" |
16258 | If your father dies, what will you do?" |
16258 | In others?" |
16258 | In the harvest- field, was it? |
16258 | Is Ducie willing?" |
16258 | Is Steve at home?" |
16258 | Is a sin against a mother a less sin than one against a strange woman? |
16258 | Is it a Scotch name?" |
16258 | Is it fair, Sophia? |
16258 | Is it to the lady whose picture you showed me?" |
16258 | Is not my simple word, then, the best and the surest hope?" |
16258 | Is she, then, an actress?" |
16258 | Is that so? |
16258 | Is the letter for you?" |
16258 | Is there any more bad news? |
16258 | Is there any wrong in loving you? |
16258 | It is true they rather felt than understood; but when the soul has faith, what matters comprehension? |
16258 | Julius, my dear one, can you find any thing fit to eat?" |
16258 | Mostly 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?" |
16258 | Mother never heard tell of it? |
16258 | Mother, why do n''t you cheer up and do something? |
16258 | No time do you say? |
16258 | Oh, do you hear the tinkling bells Of sheep that wander on the fells? |
16258 | Or is your wife to sing in Italy?" |
16258 | Ought not the money to go back to the estate, and you to make a fresh arrangement with father about your allowance? |
16258 | Sandal? |
16258 | Shall I stop?" |
16258 | She stood upon the hearthstone while the servant rebolted the door, and then asked,--"Is dinner served, Noel?" |
16258 | Sight, speech, feeling, where were they gone? |
16258 | Sophia 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? |
16258 | Stephen, what is thy name?" |
16258 | Suppose he was with a beautiful girl: is Julius the only young man entitled to such a privilege? |
16258 | Suppose you selected some outlandish dress,--an Italian brigand''s, for instance,--what would the neighboring gentlemen think of you? |
16258 | The affairs of the''walks''and the farms must be attended to, and what will they do on quarter- day? |
16258 | The child is a boy, then?" |
16258 | The kindest thing that is in your own heart say it to the dear old man for me; will you, Charlotte?" |
16258 | The squire was silent a few minutes; then he asked in a slow, constrained voice,"What did you do?" |
16258 | Then father would not have been squire of Sandal- Side if Launcelot had lived?" |
16258 | Then she asked the question of all questions the most irritating,"What is the matter with you, squire?" |
16258 | They may be in families, Ducie, who can tell? |
16258 | They''ll have to be up before day- dawn to keep sidey with our Steve.--Steve, how many is thou ahead now?" |
16258 | Thou, mother?" |
16258 | Uncounselled? |
16258 | Unfriended? |
16258 | Was it not the failure of Cain''s attempted propitiation that kindled the flame of hate and murder in his heart? |
16258 | We all think the most of what we have had a hand in ourselves, do n''t we Miss Sandal? |
16258 | Were there no lovely English girls? |
16258 | What are you and Sophia laughing at? |
16258 | What can I do? |
16258 | What can I do? |
16258 | What can they refer to? |
16258 | What did they do with it?" |
16258 | What did they quarrel about?" |
16258 | What do I care?" |
16258 | What do I think? |
16258 | What do you think of him, sir?" |
16258 | What equivalent could he give you?" |
16258 | What for Charley?" |
16258 | What for?" |
16258 | What have I done?" |
16258 | What have you heard? |
16258 | What is Calcutta? |
16258 | What is Sandal- Side? |
16258 | What is it?" |
16258 | What is life itself, my own one? |
16258 | What is the matter with you, Charlotte? |
16258 | What kind of a person is an Italian? |
16258 | What right had he to be discussing my family matters, or Sandal matters either, I wonder? |
16258 | What right have you to spoil their lives, in order to give yourself a little pleasure? |
16258 | What sin have they committed to be trodden under foot? |
16258 | What terror is in my heart? |
16258 | What were you going to say?" |
16258 | What will he do with it? |
16258 | What will people say? |
16258 | What''s to do?" |
16258 | What, Charlotte?" |
16258 | What, Charlotte?" |

16258 | When did you get home? |
16258 | When will you vacate? |
16258 | Where are you going to live, then?" |
16258 | Where did such thoughts and feelings spring from? |
16258 | Where have you been? |
16258 | Where is your mother? |
16258 | Where shall we go? |
16258 | Where?" |
16258 | Which of you will go with me? |
16258 | Who has been rating you?" |
16258 | Who has not experienced these invasions of hostile natures? |
16258 | Who is the some one else?" |
16258 | Who?" |
16258 | Why come at all now?" |
16258 | Why did you give up the ways of your fathers? |
16258 | Why did you not come home, and speak to me before it was too late? |
16258 | Why had the lovers set themselves apart from the family, had secrets and consultations and interests they refused to share? |
16258 | Why not leave the army?" |
16258 | Why not wait until morning?" |
16258 | Why should the villagers think that the sight of a letter from him would be so dreadful to his own people?" |
16258 | Why should we waste our money? |
16258 | Why were you having sad thoughts?" |
16258 | Why, why?" |
16258 | Will Satan care whether you be a peasant, or a star- and- garter gentleman? |
16258 | Will you go, squire?" |
16258 | Will you make up what is lacking, out of your interest money? |
16258 | Will you say this Sophia, as I say it?" |
16258 | Wo n''t you be missed? |
16258 | Would you return there with Beatrice?" |
16258 | You knew Nancy Butterworth, mother?" |
16258 | You refused him? |
16258 | You see what is coming to them?" |
16258 | an uneducated shepherd like my reputed father? |
16258 | asked Charlotte;"I''m not at all tired, and how can fresh air and sunshine make one melancholy?" |
16258 | is there any thing I can do for you?" |
16258 | know not? |
16258 | no good English girls? |
16258 | or I? |
16258 | or mother? |
16258 | said Joe;"and what should I show, then? |
16258 | she cried,"does so lovely a woman really exist?" |
16258 | that, in fact, he has never been quite easy about ready money since?" |
16258 | what is the matter? |
16258 | when the door is closed, and the windows darkened, who can tell what passes in the solemn temple of mortality? |
16258 | where are her last letters? |
11882 | ''Where to?'' 11882 A good job? |
11882 | A husband to love and cherish me? |
11882 | A shilling, do you? 11882 Ah, Mr. Edward Cossey''s? |
11882 | Ah, yes; then why did n''t you say so? 11882 All bones?" |
11882 | All right,said the Squire;"are you going to take your wife with you?" |
11882 | Am 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?" |
11882 | And that being so, sir, what is to be done? |
11882 | And what did he do with it? |
11882 | And what is his price? |
11882 | And what is the place worth? |
11882 | And what the devil business of yours is it, sir,asked Cossey,"what I have or have not done? |
11882 | And 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? |
11882 | And you think any means justifiable so long as you get it? |
11882 | Any business? |
11882 | Any passengers for Effry? |
11882 | Are they? |
11882 | Are you a good shot? |
11882 | Are you acquainted with your grandfather''s handwriting? |
11882 | Are you afraid? |
11882 | Are you all right, George? |
11882 | Are you all right? |
11882 | Are you fond of shooting? |
11882 | Are you satisfied, Mr. Cossey? 11882 Are you sure that he saw you, Mr. Cossey; he is very absent- minded sometimes?" |
11882 | Are you sure? |
11882 | Are you tired of me? |
11882 | As I have said that I can not say''yes,''Colonel Quaritch, do you not think that I had better leave that question unanswered? |
11882 | At what price will you agree to stay the action for ever? |
11882 | Ay, it''s a fine old place, Colonel, is n''t it? |
11882 | Bailiffs, marm? |
11882 | But about the mortgages? 11882 But, Mr. Quest,"said Ida,"how can I ask such a favour of any man? |
11882 | By the way,said Edward, as they entered the study,"that''s queer about that fellow Quaritch, is n''t it? |
11882 | By the way,she went on,"I am sorry to have to talk of business, but this is a business matter, is it not? |
11882 | Ca n''t you take it in hand and farm it yourself? |
11882 | Can not the money be got anyhow? 11882 Can you find anyone who will?" |
11882 | Come from? 11882 Confound you,"roared the old gentleman,"why do n''t you stop when I call you?" |
11882 | D''Aubigne,growled the flashy man with an oath,"what do I care about d''Aubigne? |
11882 | Did he? |
11882 | Did she-- did she indeed? |
11882 | Did the Squire get my letter, Miss de la Molle? |
11882 | Digging, why where? |
11882 | Do I? 11882 Do I?" |
11882 | Do n''t you? |
11882 | Do you know the old man? |
11882 | Do you know, it is very feminine, but I would give anything to see you beat him? |
11882 | Do you mean to allow this man to marry your daughter for her money? |
11882 | Do you mean to allow this? |
11882 | Do you mean to suggest that I should fight a duel with you? |
11882 | Do you really care for me enough for that, Edward? |
11882 | Do you suppose that it is more pleasant to me to talk about it than it is for you? 11882 Do you want to know?" |
11882 | Do you wonder why I ask you this? |
11882 | Edward,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?" |
11882 | Father, what is the use of trying to shirk the thing just because it is disagreeable? |
11882 | Father,she said again,"will you give me ten days, that is, until Christmas Day? |
11882 | Father,she said,"do you wish me to marry that man?" |
11882 | Girls have no head for these things,he said,"so what is the use of talking about it?" |
11882 | Give him_ what?_"Why, kick him out, sir, for good and all, begging your pardon, sir. |
11882 | Going to do? 11882 Has my husband gone?" |
11882 | Have you got the ticket, Jones? |
11882 | Have you nursed me ever since the accident, Belle? |
11882 | Have you seen Mr. Cossey lately? |
11882 | Have you walked up? |
11882 | Here, George, where are you, George? |
11882 | Hev he got yew, Colonel? |
11882 | How can I take it in hand? 11882 How can I tell you what is to be done? |
11882 | How can a few people playing lawn tennis hurt you? 11882 How can a skeleton sit and air himself? |
11882 | How deep du it go? |
11882 | How did he take it? |
11882 | How did it happen? |
11882 | How do you do, Belle? |
11882 | How do you do, Colonel Quaritch? |
11882 | How do you do, Colonel Quaritch? |
11882 | How do you do, George? |
11882 | How do you do, Miss de la Molle? |
11882 | How do you do, Quest? |
11882 | How do you do, Quest? |
11882 | How do you do, Quest? |
11882 | How do you know that I am engaged? |
11882 | How do you know that I have been crying? 11882 How do you know that, Miss de la Molle?" |
11882 | How do you know that? |
11882 | How is he? |
11882 | Hullo, George, are you turning prophet in addition to your other occupations? |
11882 | Hullo, Quest, is that you? |
11882 | Hullo,said the Squire,"who shot the woodcock?" |
11882 | Hush,said Ida gently,"what right have I to judge you?" |
11882 | I do not believe it,he answered;"and what right have you to say that I am in love with Miss de la Molle? |
11882 | I suppose that you have heard nothing more from Janter, have you? |
11882 | I suppose,he stammered,"I suppose that you do not care for me? |
11882 | I wonder what curse there is laid upon us that we should be always doomed to seek what we can not find? |
11882 | I? |
11882 | If you please, sir, Mr. George----"There, what did I tell you? |
11882 | In Dead Man''s Mount? |
11882 | Indeed,said Edward indifferently,"what is it?" |
11882 | Indeed,said Edward, in a changed tone,"and how did she take it?" |
11882 | Indeed,said Mr. Quest;"well, he could hardly do less, could he? |
11882 | Indeed; when are you coming back? |
11882 | Is Mr. Cossey coming here to dinner? |
11882 | Is Mrs. d''Aubigne at home, Ellen? |
11882 | Is anything wrong up at the Castle, or is the cottage blown down? |
11882 | Is he one of the great banking family? |
11882 | Is he rich? |
11882 | Is that it? |
11882 | Is that the new gun, Colonel Quaritch? |
11882 | Is that you, father? 11882 Is the woman there still?" |
11882 | Is there no way of escape? |
11882 | Is there no way out of it? |
11882 | Is there nothing to be done? |
11882 | It is very curious,he said;"have you much of this, Mr. de la Molle?" |
11882 | Keeps his head? |
11882 | Leaving? 11882 May I kiss you before I go?" |
11882 | Meaning, marm? |
11882 | Miss de la Molle,he repeated,"perhaps you will remember a conversation that passed between us some weeks ago in the conservatory?" |
11882 | No,he answered;"what makes you ask such a question?" |
11882 | No,said Ida,"for if he was, what became of all the money? |
11882 | Not my father? |
11882 | Not-- not Miss de la Molle? |
11882 | Now what did he mean by that-- what the devil did he mean? |
11882 | Now, do you hear that, Colonel Quaritch? |
11882 | Now, where on earth have you been? |
11882 | Now? |
11882 | Oh, 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? |
11882 | Oh, there you are, are you? |
11882 | Oh, why not? |
11882 | Oh, yes,she said,"I am not going to dispute that, but what then? |
11882 | Oh,Johnnie was saying,"so Quest is his name, is it, and he lives in a city called Boisingham, does he? |
11882 | Playing a game, was he? |
11882 | Quaritch? |
11882 | Quest, I suppose? |
11882 | Say? 11882 Shall you be long away?" |
11882 | Sir,said George presently,"it''s Boisingham Quarter Sessions the day after to- morrow, ai n''t it?" |
11882 | So you thought that you were going to play it down low on me in that fashion, did you? 11882 So?" |
11882 | Something wrong with the Moat Farm? |
11882 | Stop and dine, wo n''t you, Quaritch? |
11882 | Ten o''clock? |
11882 | That''s all very well, you duffer,she said;"but how am I to get at him? |
11882 | The clerk says so, does he? |
11882 | Then am I to understand that you give your consent to our engagement? |
11882 | Then how can money be got if nobody will advance it? |
11882 | Then she did it on purpose-- I mean-- is he dead? |
11882 | Then what does the Squire propose to do-- take the land in hand? |
11882 | To what am I indebted for the pleasure? |
11882 | Um-- ah,said the Squire, dryly,"I have no doubt that it is beautiful, but is n''t the grass rather damp? |
11882 | Very queer, Mr. Cossey,said he,"but do you know, I almost think that there must be some mistake? |
11882 | Well, Colonel Quaritch,he answered,"have you quite done lecturing me? |
11882 | Well, George,he said,"what is it that brings you to Boisingham? |
11882 | Well, Quest,said the latter,"have you told the old man?" |
11882 | Well, and what did he marry you for-- your pretty face? |
11882 | Well, father, what is the matter? |
11882 | Well, if he is all this, why did you marry him? |
11882 | Well, sir,answered that lugubrious worthy, as he awkwardly took a seat,"the question is what is n''t it? |
11882 | Well, well,he said impatiently,"what of it?" |
11882 | Well, would you like to hear the end of the story about Sir James and his treasure? |
11882 | Well,he said,"and who the deuce are you? |
11882 | Well,said Harold,"and did Dofferleigh find the treasure?" |
11882 | Well,said Ida, looking up,"and where is all that sum to come from? |
11882 | Well,she said,"why do n''t you ring?" |
11882 | Well? |
11882 | What are you at there? |
11882 | What are you doing there? |
11882 | What are you going to do with that pistol? 11882 What are you going to do?" |
11882 | What are you going to do? |
11882 | What are you looking at? |
11882 | What are you making that noise about? |
11882 | What be you a- going to du now, Colonel? 11882 What business is it of yours? |
11882 | What did I tell you? |
11882 | What do you mean by that, George? |
11882 | What do you mean by that? |
11882 | What do you mean? |
11882 | What do you mean? |
11882 | What do you suggest should be done, Miss de la Molle? |
11882 | What do you take me for? |
11882 | What do you want me to blow the gaff for? |
11882 | What does he want money for? |
11882 | What does it matter? 11882 What does it matter?" |
11882 | What does it_ not_ matter? 11882 What has happened to him?" |
11882 | What have I to gain by fighting you except a very good chance of being shot? 11882 What have you been doing?" |
11882 | What is it now, father? |
11882 | What is it now? |
11882 | What is it to you what I am or what I am not? |
11882 | What is it, darling? |
11882 | What is it, dear, what is it? |
11882 | What is it, father? |
11882 | What is it? 11882 What is it?" |
11882 | What is it? |
11882 | What is it? |
11882 | What is it? |
11882 | What is it? |
11882 | What is such a promise as that? 11882 What is the amount?" |
11882 | What is the good of asking me that? 11882 What is the good of making excuses and telling me what is not true, Edward?" |
11882 | What is the meaning of all this, Belle? |
11882 | What is the sum? |
11882 | What is the use of my being cautious when you are so reckless? 11882 What is this?" |
11882 | What is to be done? |
11882 | What is to be done? |
11882 | What time does the next train go--7.15, does it not? |
11882 | What way? |
11882 | What would you do, Colonel Quaritch, if you had killed the only thing you loved in the whole world? |
11882 | What''s his game? |
11882 | What''s the matter? |
11882 | What, not gone to bed, Ida? |
11882 | What,broke in the Squire, in a voice of irritation,"more lawn tennis parties, Ida? |
11882 | What? |
11882 | When will that be? |
11882 | Where are the original letters? |
11882 | Where are you going? |
11882 | Where have you been this morning? |
11882 | Where is Cossey? |
11882 | Where is he? |
11882 | Where? 11882 Who by?" |
11882 | Who is it? 11882 Who said so?" |
11882 | Who''s there? |
11882 | Who? |
11882 | Why are you looking at me? |
11882 | Why are you looking so pale? |
11882 | Why did I marry him? |
11882 | Why did you frighten me so? |
11882 | Why do I tell you? 11882 Why has he done that, as an investment?" |
11882 | Why not? |
11882 | Why not? |
11882 | Why, Ida,he said in amaze,"what are you doing here, crying too?" |
11882 | Why, what is the matter? |
11882 | Why, what on arth hev you bin after, Colonel? |
11882 | Why, what on earth are you going to do in London? |
11882 | Why, where the dickens has he got to? |
11882 | Why? 11882 Why?" |
11882 | Why? |
11882 | Why? |
11882 | Will he die? |
11882 | Will he live? |
11882 | Will he live? |
11882 | Will you be off, sir? |
11882 | Will you be seated? |
11882 | Will you please give that note to Mr. Cossey,said Ida, as the door opened,"and ask him to send an answer?" |
11882 | Will you take a chair? |
11882 | Wish you to marry him? 11882 Would it not be better to let the place go out of cultivation, rather than risk so much money?" |
11882 | Would you? |
11882 | Yes, but that costs money, does it not? |
11882 | Yes, she is a spirited girl,answered Mr. Quest,"and what a splendid woman she looks, does n''t she? |
11882 | Yes, sir, yes, for sure we must; but how be we a- going to carry it? |
11882 | Yes, 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?" |
11882 | Yes,said Ida, moving impatiently,"but why do you tell me all this? |
11882 | Yes,said Ida,"what is it?" |
11882 | You are not going to kill me? |
11882 | You ca n''t come in now,roared the Squire;"do n''t you see that we are engaged?" |
11882 | You heard me, then why the dickens did n''t you answer? |
11882 | You know that Miss de la Molle will not marry him after all? |
11882 | You 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?" |
11882 | You''re going to give me a lift home, ai n''t you? |
11882 | You, what? |
11882 | You? |
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? |
11882 | A client of yours, eh? |
11882 | Abandon her love, desecrate herself and save her father and her house, or cling to her love and leave the rest to chance? |
11882 | Ah, wise resolutions of the quiet night, whither do you go in the garish light of day? |
11882 | And after all what could it matter to him? |
11882 | And how am I going to live till January? |
11882 | And if I am in love with her, how can you prevent me from marrying her if I choose?" |
11882 | And 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? |
11882 | And now one more thing, Mr. Cossey; I should like to know when you would wish this marriage to take place; not yet, I presume?" |
11882 | And now what is there left to say to you except good- bye? |
11882 | And now what was to be done? |
11882 | And now, by the way, are you going to the Castle this afternoon?" |
11882 | And now, marm, wo n''t you have another?" |
11882 | And then there''s Ida-- Miss de la Molle, I mean-- what would become of her? |
11882 | And what is the end of it? |
11882 | And what of that? |
11882 | And what was it-- a boundary hill, a natural formation, or, as its name implied, a funeral barrow? |
11882 | And where do you come from?" |
11882 | And who is the gentleman? |
11882 | And yet how can I in common fairness ask you to answer that question? |
11882 | And yet what was the meaning of that jointed skeleton sitting in the stone bath? |
11882 | And, besides, who is to look after the farms and all the business? |
11882 | And-- why do you wait? |
11882 | Are you not pleased?" |
11882 | As I was a saying to my friend Laryer Quest down at Boisingham yesterday----""Hullo, what''s that?" |
11882 | Because Cossey has gone away-- or have you quarrelled with him?" |
11882 | Besides,"he added, recollecting himself,"why should I interfere?" |
11882 | But I beg your pardon, I suppose that he is a friend of yours, Miss de la Molle?" |
11882 | But how did she know anything about Ida''s engagement to Edward Cossey? |
11882 | But if he had cause for trouble, how much more was it so with Ida? |
11882 | But look here, if he''s put in chokey, where''s the tin to come from?" |
11882 | But what did he care for the summer- house or the oaks now? |
11882 | But what will you have? |
11882 | But where was it to come from? |
11882 | But where was the lovely rounded form, and where the clustering golden curls? |
11882 | But where was the treasure? |
11882 | But, if this was so, whence came the un- cremated skeletons? |
11882 | By- the- way, I have a few people coming to play lawn tennis here to- morrow afternoon, will you come too?" |
11882 | By- the- way, you would like a glass of wine, would n''t you, George? |
11882 | CHAPTER III THE TALE OF SIR JAMES DE LA MOLLE"Is that you, father?" |
11882 | Can I come in?" |
11882 | Can not you let me have an answer now, yes or no?" |
11882 | Can you lend me your dogcart to drive up in? |
11882 | Colonel Quaritch?" |
11882 | Come, Squire, though you allus du say how as I''m a fule, what did I tell yer? |
11882 | Cossey?" |
11882 | Cossey?" |
11882 | Cossey?" |
11882 | Cossey?" |
11882 | Could he be sitting on the money? |
11882 | Could it be possible that she had died in Egypt? |
11882 | Could it be that the look was the look of a woman maddened by insult and jealousy, who was meditating some fearful crime? |
11882 | Could it be? |
11882 | Did 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? |
11882 | Did you say that you were going to see the Squire to- day?" |
11882 | Do n''t you know that when everything else in life has failed them women generally take to religion?" |
11882 | Do n''t you know that? |
11882 | Do you hear me, Ida?" |
11882 | Do you hear me? |
11882 | Do you know what it would cost to take over that farm?" |
11882 | Do you know what kind of man this is for whom you are giving up your life? |
11882 | Do you still intend to marry her?" |
11882 | Do you suppose such women as I am have any care for consequences? |
11882 | Do you suppose that I am going to consider you? |
11882 | Do you understand me? |
11882 | Do you understand me? |
11882 | Do you understand what I have said?" |
11882 | Do you understand?" |
11882 | Does n''t it fit well?" |
11882 | Fairest Edithia, what means this?" |
11882 | For had he not to stock the Moat Farm, and was not Michaelmas at hand? |
11882 | Forgive me, but are you engaged to be married to Edward Cossey?" |
11882 | George''to mind his? |
11882 | Had the news reached Belle? |
11882 | Have you done your catechism?" |
11882 | Have you made up your mind? |
11882 | He''s a lawyer and he might not freeze on to you; do n''t you understand?" |
11882 | Hev the gale blown it up?" |
11882 | Hev you a ladder here?" |
11882 | How can I do it? |
11882 | How can I help being jealous when I love you so? |
11882 | How can I leave Honham? |
11882 | How can I tell? |
11882 | How could that thing move its head? |
11882 | How did he find her? |
11882 | How did it go off? |
11882 | How much tin have you brought?" |
11882 | How was he to account for this great hole to his gardener on the following morning? |
11882 | How was it that he had not known those things that belonged to his peace? |
11882 | I have had to pay him thirty thousand pounds, do you know that? |
11882 | I may rely upon your discretion, may I not?" |
11882 | I suppose there will not be any public engagement at present, will there? |
11882 | I 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?" |
11882 | I thought perhaps that was what you had been crying about?" |
11882 | I want you to beat him if you can-- will you try?" |
11882 | If so, how was he to face her? |
11882 | If this was the case now, what, she wondered, would happen in the Spring, when steps were actually taken to sell the place? |
11882 | If you have no care for your good name, do you suppose that I am indifferent to mine?" |
11882 | If, therefore, this was so with her own father, how would it be with the rest of the world? |
11882 | In another few months he had expected to be able to leave this place a wealthy and respected man-- and now? |
11882 | In the second, he would be acting a lie, and the lie would sooner or later be discovered, and what then? |
11882 | Is he an off bird?" |
11882 | Is she a furriner?" |
11882 | Is that understood between us?" |
11882 | Is there no way out of this? |
11882 | Is there_ no_ way out of it?" |
11882 | Is there_ nothing_ to be done?" |
11882 | It must be all rubbish; how could he know anything about it?" |
11882 | It must be prevented at any price-- do you hear, Quest?" |
11882 | It was from Belle Quest, and ran thus:"Dear Mr. Cossey,--Will you come over and see me this afternoon about three o''clock? |
11882 | It''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? |
11882 | Just ring the bell, will you, and take a cigarette?" |
11882 | Laryer Quest? |
11882 | May I take a copy of that writing?" |
11882 | Money can make most paths smooth to the feet of the traveller, and why not this? |
11882 | Money-- honey, honey-- money, they rhyme, do n''t they? |
11882 | My dearest love, what can I say? |
11882 | Next 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?" |
11882 | Nonsense, Ida, how can you talk like that? |
11882 | Nor was he mistaken, for presently a well- remembered voice shrilled out:"Who''s skulking round outside there? |
11882 | Not only has he deserted you, but do you know how he has got hold of Ida de la Molle? |
11882 | Not that there is much need to warn you to be in time when you are going to see Miss de la Molle, is there? |
11882 | Now did you happen to see Ida in the course of your business?" |
11882 | Now look here, have you got that fat pony of yours in the yard?" |
11882 | Now, Colonel Quaritch, will you take my daughter? |
11882 | Oh, you are not going to kill me, are you?" |
11882 | Perhaps you would like to come up to dinner to- night?" |
11882 | Quaritch said he was coming back this evening, did n''t he? |
11882 | Queer place this, is n''t it?" |
11882 | Queer place to choose for a castle, though, was n''t it? |
11882 | Quest, perhaps; or was it something to do with Ida? |
11882 | Quest?" |
11882 | Quest?" |
11882 | Shall I go on?" |
11882 | Shall we say this time six months, that will be in May?" |
11882 | She could not sleep-- who could sleep on such a night, the herald of such a morrow? |
11882 | She started back, and her expression hardened-- then she stretched out her hand and said,"How do you do?" |
11882 | Shut up, ca n''t you? |
11882 | So you have been up there this morning?" |
11882 | Stop a minute, would you like a glass of port?" |
11882 | Suppose Ida was right and that it contained a cypher or cryptograph which would give a clue to the whereabouts of the treasure? |
11882 | Supposing I go to a magistrate and ask for a warrant? |
11882 | Take a seat, will you, will I look through it? |
11882 | The Squire? |
11882 | The question with him was, would she or would she not attempt to put her threat into execution? |
11882 | Then looking him in the eyes again,"Are you engaged to be married to Ida?" |
11882 | Was all this to be at the mercy of a girl''s whim? |
11882 | Was he anxious to get the estate for himself? |
11882 | Was he ever in the 105th Foot?" |
11882 | Was he put forward by somebody else? |
11882 | Was it a shroud, or what? |
11882 | Was it likely that it exploded of itself, or owing to an accidental touch of the trigger? |
11882 | Was there no way out of it, no possible way? |
11882 | Well, and what comes of it? |
11882 | Well, if it was after marriage, what would it matter? |
11882 | Well, what did your young man do? |
11882 | Were they, perhaps, directions as to the line to be taken to discover it? |
11882 | What am I to do? |
11882 | What am I to do? |
11882 | What am I to do?" |
11882 | What can you do to keep me quiet?" |
11882 | What chance have I against her? |
11882 | What chance have such as he against the Quests of this polite era of political economy and penny papers? |
11882 | What could she do? |
11882 | What do you mean by that? |
11882 | What do you mean?" |
11882 | What followed? |
11882 | What had become of his fair prospect of quiet years sloping gently downwards, and warm with the sweet drowsy light of afternoon? |
11882 | What is it?" |
11882 | What is there that a man in his position can do? |
11882 | What right have you to come prying into the affairs of a poor lone woman?" |
11882 | What shall I say to Ida?" |
11882 | What should she do, what ought she to do? |
11882 | What should she do? |
11882 | What sort of a ghost?" |
11882 | What was he to do with himself? |
11882 | What was the matter with the thing? |
11882 | What will you give me if I find it out?" |
11882 | What would you give to such a friend?" |
11882 | What''s to become of me? |
11882 | When can you tear yourself away, and come and give your E---- a look? |
11882 | Where be those great moneys whereof you talk herein? |
11882 | Where did you find it?" |
11882 | Where for?" |
11882 | Where go the sympathies between the parent and the child, and where is the close old love of brother for his brother? |
11882 | Where on earth have you been?" |
11882 | Who can escape the consequence of sin, or even of the misfortune which led to sin? |
11882 | Who can say? |
11882 | Who knows? |
11882 | Who would ever think of looking for modern treasure in the burying place of the ancient dead? |
11882 | Why 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? |
11882 | Why 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? |
11882 | Why do you ask that? |
11882 | Why do you ask?" |
11882 | Why does one fall in love with worthless people? |
11882 | Why have you been crying? |
11882 | Why what the deuce was the man doing up a tree-- measuring it?" |
11882 | Why, what''s the matter with you, dear? |
11882 | Why?" |
11882 | Will you excuse me, Quaritch? |
11882 | Will you light the candles?" |
11882 | Will you not take money instead?" |
11882 | Will you step across with me and we can ask her?" |
11882 | Would the matches never light? |
11882 | You say that you detest him, why then do you marry him-- you are a free woman?" |
11882 | You think that you are wretched; how do you know that I am not fifty times as wretched? |
11882 | You wo n''t forget me, Harold, will you? |
11882 | You wo n''t go away from this place, Harold, will you? |
11882 | You''ve heard tell of the treasure that old Sir James de la Molle buried in the time of the Roundheads?" |
11882 | asked Harold in a voice tremulous with excitement, for was not his life''s fortune trembling on the turn? |
11882 | has there?" |
11882 | he said cheerily;"sit down; what is it?" |
11882 | he said, springing from his chair;"you tried to murder me?" |
11882 | he said,"what is the matter?" |
11882 | it''s Mr. Edward Cossey''s, is it?" |
11882 | mean? |
11882 | said his master, who was in high good humour,"did you find your man?" |
11882 | said the Squire;"why what are you going to do there? |
11882 | said the hag sharply,"and who the dickens are you? |
11882 | she answered with a gesture of contempt,"what have I to be afraid of? |
11882 | she answered,"and do you know who the clerk is? |
11882 | she asked, with some return of spirit;"do you think that I would injure a wounded man?" |
11882 | she broke in with a bitter little laugh,"shall I tell you why? |
11882 | she said aloud;"I wonder if he has given me the slip?" |
11882 | she said, opening her eyes widely;"who am I that I should judge you? |
11882 | the Sir James who hid the treasure?" |
11882 | there was but one way and that a golden one; but where was the money to come from? |
11882 | what did the woman mean when she asked what he would do if he had killed the only thing he loved in the world? |
11882 | what''s the matter?" |
11882 | who?" |
11882 | why?" |
11882 | would 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? |
482 | A plan for her not to marry well? |
482 | A quarrel? 482 A what? |
482 | About my getting to Exbury? |
482 | Ah-- how''s Little Hintock folk by now? |
482 | And how many can you make in a day? |
482 | And shall I see you again? |
482 | And the man she is talking to? |
482 | And then? |
482 | And those dreadful old French romances, with their horrid spellings of''filz''and''ung''and''ilz''and''mary''and''ma foy?'' |
482 | And what''s more wonderful than keeping your seat in a deep, slumbering sleep? 482 And why did n''t she marry him?" |
482 | And you know all that has happened? |
482 | And you wish to become better acquainted with her? 482 And-- not Great Hintock band, and dancing, surely?" |
482 | Anything else? |
482 | Are folk astir here yet? |
482 | Are n''t you glad to get back? 482 Are you dying, Edgar?" |
482 | Are you engaged to him? |
482 | Are you going to have out Darling this afternoon? |
482 | Are you hurt much-- much? |
482 | Are you rested? |
482 | Are you sure you have a snug place out there? |
482 | Are you sure-- about this new law? |
482 | At any rate she did not talk much about me? |
482 | Ay, ay, Giles-- what do I call ye? 482 Bad for me? |
482 | Because of the houses? |
482 | But can it be,said he, suddenly,"that you really were here?" |
482 | But can not you say? |
482 | But could it not be a quiet ceremony, even at church? |
482 | But father said it was ALMOST-- did he not? 482 But how can I meet him there? |
482 | But how could you learn to do it? 482 But how''s that? |
482 | But surely, ma''am, you know the truth better than I? |
482 | But there''s something wrong-- eh? |
482 | But what will my father think has become of me? 482 But who knows of the engagement as yet? |
482 | But why are you not there now? |
482 | But why do you persevere to make''em worse? 482 But you did n''t at last?" |
482 | But you had hardly ever seen me except in the dusk? |
482 | But you hate Hintock, and everybody and everything in it that you do n''t mean to take away with you? |
482 | But,said Fitzpiers, gloomily,"what have we done?" |
482 | But-- I suppose it is best to arrange like this? |
482 | Buying you!--how? |
482 | By whom? |
482 | Can I be a prophet in Israel? |
482 | Can I notice defects? 482 Can not you recollect at all what she said?" |
482 | Can you open it yourself? |
482 | Can you tell me the time? |
482 | Can you walk on with me till we are quite alone? |
482 | Dead-- SHE dead? |
482 | Dear me-- whereabouts are we? |
482 | Did Edgar tell you of this? |
482 | Did he tell you how she died? 482 Did he tell you what for?" |
482 | Did n''t you see me sitting there ever so long? |
482 | Did she do it in her husband''s time? |
482 | Did she walk lame? |
482 | Did you cry Halloo? |
482 | Did you ever hear anything of me from then till now? |
482 | Did you know where he lodged? |
482 | Did you say anything? |
482 | Did you tell anybody? |
482 | Different from friend Winterborne''s? |
482 | Do n''t you think you will ever be happy, Giles? |
482 | Do n''t you want to come in? 482 Do they?" |
482 | Do you agree? |
482 | Do you ever look at things philosophically instead of personally? |
482 | Do you feel better? |
482 | Do you keep up your lucubrations at Little Hintock? |
482 | Do you know anything of Mrs. Charmond''s past history? 482 Do you know if it is my daughter?" |
482 | Do you know the lady''s name? |
482 | Do you know the way? |
482 | Do you know, Robert,he said,"that she''s been accustomed to servants and everything superfine these many years? |
482 | Do you mean Marty? |
482 | Do you much mind that it was not? |
482 | Do you think I''d better? |
482 | Do you think it went off well, Creedle? |
482 | Edgar, is she very seriously hurt? |
482 | Father, what is the matter with him? |
482 | Father,she went on,"can Mrs. Charmond turn us out of our house if she''s minded to?" |
482 | For how long? |
482 | For no other reason at all? |
482 | Giles, why did n''t you come across to me? |
482 | Go to Mrs. Charmond-- what for? |
482 | Grace, my wife, my love, how is this-- what has happened? |
482 | Has he a wife? |
482 | Have n''t they a mill of their own? |
482 | Have you been kissing him during his illness? |
482 | Have you got the celery ready? |
482 | Have you lived here long? |
482 | Have you to sign a paper, or swear anything? 482 Having prophesied one thing, why did you alter it to another? |
482 | He was detained, I suppose, last night? |
482 | He was n''t alive, I suppose? |
482 | Hey? 482 Hey?" |
482 | Hey? |
482 | How be you going to wake at half- past three else? |
482 | How can I be married except at church, and with all my dear friends round me? |
482 | How can you be sorry for me, when you wilfully keep open the grave? |
482 | How can you speak so unjustly to me, Grace? |
482 | How can you think so much of that class of people? 482 How could that be?" |
482 | How could you want to quarrel with him? |
482 | How do you come here? |
482 | How do you do, Giles? |
482 | How do you know that, father? |
482 | How does she come there? |
482 | How far do you come from? |
482 | How is Grace? |
482 | How long has it been introduced? |
482 | How much do you get for making these spars? |
482 | How much do you get? |
482 | How the deuce did a snail get there? |
482 | How was that? |
482 | How-- what-- a remedy? |
482 | How? |
482 | I hope you do not feel over- much melancholy in being a prisoner? |
482 | I s''pose the time when you learned all these knowing things, Mr. Creedle, was when you was in the militia? |
482 | I think-- I heard that Mrs. Charmond had gone there to stay? |
482 | I want you to walk home with me-- will you? 482 I wonder if you ever will?" |
482 | I? 482 If you do n''t on your own account, can not you wish to on mine and hers? |
482 | Indeed; what for? 482 Is he dying-- is there any hope?" |
482 | Is he in great danger-- can you save him? |
482 | Is it not good of them to welcome me so warmly? |
482 | Is it part of a country doctor''s duties to learn that view of things, may I ask, sir? |
482 | Is she ill? |
482 | Is that blue vein still in my temple that used to show there? 482 Is that you, Grace? |
482 | Is there anything the matter? |
482 | Is there to be dancing? |
482 | Is this her carriage? |
482 | It is sure to be all right, I trust? |
482 | Just as we be? |
482 | Look at what? |
482 | Lost his houses? 482 Matter? |
482 | Miss Melbury,he said, suddenly,"I divine that this virtuous man you mention has been refused by you?" |
482 | Mrs. Charmond has asked you to come again-- when, did you say? |
482 | My darling, what is it? 482 Nevertheless, why should I repeat to you what you can easily divine?" |
482 | No-- hey? |
482 | No? |
482 | Nor the loss of one, either? |
482 | Not about me? |
482 | Now have pity, and tell me: will you try? |
482 | Now, honor bright, did you really think it was he? |
482 | Now, 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?" |
482 | Oh, I suppose,she stammered,"that I am really free?--that this is right? |
482 | Oh, Mr. Fitzpiers-- how can you ask? |
482 | Oh, why does not my father come home and explain,she sobbed,"and let me know clearly what I am? |
482 | Oh-- is it indeed you? 482 Oh-- you''ve had the doctor?" |
482 | On his lips? |
482 | Or do n''t you know? |
482 | Shall I come round to you? |
482 | Shall we take to the wood for privacy? |
482 | She is not staying at Hintock House? |
482 | She wants it to go abroad wi''? |
482 | Since his fevered state set in? |
482 | Sorry that you be going, after all, Suke? |
482 | Suppose my mother had not taken me away? |
482 | Suppose you talk over my head a little longer, Miss Grace Melbury? |
482 | Surely it is the most respectable thing to do? |
482 | That was it, was n''t it, Lucy? |
482 | The admirer? |
482 | The oil? |
482 | Then Giles did not tell you? |
482 | Then bain''t you coming home with us? |
482 | Then did you know I was here? |
482 | Then may I inquire why you came? |
482 | Then perhaps she is staying at one of the cottages, or farmhouses? |
482 | Then what brought you here? |
482 | Then why must you needs say that about apples and gate- posts? |
482 | Then why the d---- did n''t you, or get the old buffer to do it for you? |
482 | Then will you step in- doors, where your dear will soon jine''ee? 482 Then you have n''t given up smoking?" |
482 | Then you knew he was going to the House, Giles? |
482 | Then you would advise me not to communicate with him? |
482 | There''s folk left behind that you''d fain have with''ee, I reckon? |
482 | There,he said,"you see that plantation reaching over the hill like a great slug, and just behind the hill a particularly green sheltered bottom? |
482 | This muddling style of house- keeping is what you''ve not lately been used to, I suppose? |
482 | To love you again? |
482 | True-- WHY? |
482 | Turn us out? 482 WE met, do you say?" |
482 | Waiting for your dear husband? |
482 | Was he clutching her tight? |
482 | Was he really made for higher things, do you think? 482 Was it true?" |
482 | Was it? 482 We declare it, do we not, my dear Grace?" |
482 | We''ve been at Hintock as long as they''ve been at Buckbury; is it not so? 482 Well, I hope it is made up?" |
482 | Well, Mrs. Cox, what''s the best news? |
482 | Well, if you do, what then? 482 Well, then, why not give me a very little bit of your heart again?" |
482 | Well,''twas his native home, come to that; and where else could we expect him to be? 482 Well; can I do anything else?" |
482 | What are they? |
482 | What are you doing here? 482 What are you doing that for, Marty?" |
482 | What are you doing? |
482 | What are you looking at? |
482 | What are you thinking of that makes those lines come in your forehead? |
482 | What can a man of that sort find to interest him in Hintock? 482 What did he tell you? |
482 | What did my father say the solicitor had told him? |
482 | What difference can it make, if she''s only the tree your rainbow falls on? |
482 | What do you mean, my young friend? |
482 | What do you think that is? |
482 | What does it all mean? |
482 | What has happened? |
482 | What have I done-- what have I done for her? |
482 | What is his name? |
482 | What is it, father? |
482 | What is it? |
482 | What is reputation to me? |
482 | What maggot has the gaffer got in his head now? |
482 | What money? |
482 | What sets you in this mournful mood? |
482 | What shall we, shall we do? |
482 | What snail? |
482 | What were you almost in tears about just now? |
482 | What would you have me do? |
482 | What''s that? |
482 | What''s that? |
482 | What, 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? |
482 | What-- another student in that retreat? |
482 | What? |
482 | What? |
482 | When, then, were you betrothed to him, or engaged, as we common people say? |
482 | Where did you meet him? |
482 | Where, then, can it be? 482 Where?" |
482 | Who are you making them for? |
482 | Who can have made such nonsense of it? |
482 | Who did this? |
482 | Who have ye had talking to ye down- stairs? |
482 | Who is that young lady I see talking to the woodman yonder? |
482 | Who''s she? |
482 | Who, indeed? |
482 | Who-- Edgar? |
482 | Whom do you mean by Tim? |
482 | Why ca n''t the lady send to some other girl who do n''t value her hair-- not to me? |
482 | Why 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? |
482 | Why do you call me? |
482 | Why do you go to- night? |
482 | Why do you ruin yourself in that way? 482 Why do you say if?" |
482 | Why do you think that? |
482 | Why do you wear pattens, Marty? 482 Why him in particular?" |
482 | Why is it settled off- hand in this way? |
482 | Why need you not ask? |
482 | Why not let Giles fetch her by himself? 482 Why not?" |
482 | Why not? |
482 | Why not? |
482 | Why not? |
482 | Why not? |
482 | Why should she yawn? |
482 | Why should you repeat what we both know to be in our minds already? |
482 | Why the deuce do you sigh like that, Robert? |
482 | Why, you scamp, what''s this you''ve been doing? 482 Why-- don''t''ee want to be happier than you be at present?" |
482 | Why? 482 Why? |
482 | Why? 482 Why? |
482 | Why? |
482 | Why? |
482 | Why? |
482 | Why? |
482 | Why? |
482 | Will He dance with She? |
482 | Will you leave me to myself? |
482 | Will you pour it out, please? 482 Will you promise to leave me quite free as to seeing you or not seeing you?" |
482 | Wo n''t money do anything,he said,"if you''ve promising material to work upon? |
482 | Would 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?" |
482 | Would you act upon what I gave? |
482 | Wronged his father? |
482 | Yes, what is it? |
482 | Yes-- why not? 482 You HAVE?" |
482 | You are a native of this place? |
482 | You come from far, seemingly? |
482 | You do n''t think he would do it for me? |
482 | You do n''t wish me to stay any longer? |
482 | You have been to the house? |
482 | You have n''t been reading them, Grace? |
482 | You have never had one drawn? |
482 | You have no wife, sir? |
482 | You have-- got to know her? |
482 | You 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?" |
482 | You mean Mrs. Charmond? 482 You mean, to lead him on to marry me?" |
482 | You shall know all I know-- you have a perfect right to know-- who can have a better than either of you? |
482 | You were caught in a man- trap? |
482 | You wo n''t go away from me? |
482 | You would like to have more honor, if it pleases me? |
482 | You''ll be, then, ready, Giles? |
482 | You''ll wait till you hear what I think of him, I suppose? |
482 | Your 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?'' |
482 | Alas!--old Jones was seven miles off; Giles was possibly dying-- what else could she do? |
482 | Am I to draw from that the obvious, the extremest inference?" |
482 | Ambition? |
482 | And so the question remained for him still: how should he remedy this perilous state of things? |
482 | And the question is, where would you advise me to send her?" |
482 | And those other books-- those piles of old plays-- what good are they to a medical man?" |
482 | Another inquiry or two, and Grace said,"Did she ask for me?" |
482 | Anything else?'' |
482 | Are you coming with me to what was once your home?" |
482 | Are you not ill? |
482 | Are you very tired?" |
482 | As she did not reply, he added, with a gentler inflection,"You know why the mare was called that?" |
482 | As soon as he came a little out of his fit, he gasped,"Oh, it is gone!--where?--where?" |
482 | At a church in town?" |
482 | At any rate she would take his arm? |
482 | At last she said,"Well, sir, what excuse for this disobedience?" |
482 | At last she said,"Who has been so kind as to ask me to ride?" |
482 | At the top she gently approached a bedroom, and without entering, said,"Father, do you want anything?" |
482 | Bawtree?" |
482 | Between ourselves, I am losing my practice here; and why? |
482 | But I have mentioned as much to your father, who has made no objection; and why should you?" |
482 | But could he find it in his heart-- as he found it clearly enough in his conscience-- to go away? |
482 | But could he go away, remembering what had just passed? |
482 | But could she order this genuinely grieved woman away? |
482 | But 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? |
482 | But how do I know what Grace''s notions may be? |
482 | But how does this awful thing come here?" |
482 | But is there a yet greater humiliation in store for me? |
482 | But life, what was it, and who was she? |
482 | But oh, Grammer, how can you think to do it? |
482 | But the scheme; I think it an enchanting notion, do n''t you, Giles?" |
482 | But we can act honestly, and yet you can be my friend for one little hour? |
482 | But when he paused she said,"Mr. Winterborne, can I run down the lane and back to warm my feet?" |
482 | But where is Grace? |
482 | But you are not going to refuse me now I''ve come all the way from Sherton o''purpose?" |
482 | But, my dear Miss Melbury, now that he is gone, may I draw near?" |
482 | By what right do you ask?" |
482 | Can he live?" |
482 | Can not you go without?" |
482 | Can you come and see if you can persuade him out of his notion? |
482 | Can you deny that you felt out of place at The Three Tuns?" |
482 | Can you hide me till I am well? |
482 | Charmond''s?" |
482 | Could he have seen her write on the wall? |
482 | Could he really be dying? |
482 | Could it be that she might make of him a true and worthy husband yet? |
482 | Could she call to her presence the very cause of all her foregoing troubles? |
482 | Could she have been mistaken about his health? |
482 | Could she order Suke Damson down- stairs and out of the house? |
482 | Could you do that also, Felice?" |
482 | Creedle?" |
482 | Did ye ever hear anything about her character before she came to Hintock?" |
482 | Do n''t you feel it a triumph?" |
482 | Do you hear? |
482 | Do you know anything about the new law that makes these things so easy?" |
482 | Do you smoke? |
482 | Do you suppose I do n''t see the trouble in your face every day? |
482 | Do you suppose you''ll be in my way?" |
482 | Family? |
482 | Fitzpiers?" |
482 | Fitzpiers?" |
482 | For 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? |
482 | For how could a woman, brought up delicately as you have been, bear the roughness of a life with him?" |
482 | For they''ll all be yours, you know; who have I got to leave''em to but you? |
482 | Giles 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? |
482 | Grace did not say"Why?" |
482 | Grace waited an interval before she went on:"Did Mr. Fitzpiers take the way to Middleton?" |
482 | Grace, shall I tell you the secret of it? |
482 | Grace, unlike most of these companions of hers, instead of gasping and writhing, said in a trembling voice,"Mr. Fitzpiers, will you let me go?" |
482 | Grammer whispered again to Marty:"Why did n''t ye go and try your luck with the rest of the maids?" |
482 | Have I given any ground for you to doubt my first promise in that respect?" |
482 | Have n''t I educated you for it?" |
482 | Have you forgot all that, or have n''t you?" |
482 | Have you found everything you want? |
482 | Have you seen him?" |
482 | He added with hesitation,"You know, I suppose, sir, that Mrs. Charmond is not at home?" |
482 | He continued looking at the imprint, while he added,"Suppose she should be dying, and never make a track on this path any more?" |
482 | He went up to her and said,"Marty, why did you write that on my wall last night? |
482 | He''ll come down upon us and squat us dead; and what will ye do when the life on your property is taken away?" |
482 | Her fortune has been told by men of science-- what do you call''em? |
482 | Her husband might be brought in at any moment, and what would happen? |
482 | His love- making had been brief as it was sweet; but would he on reflection contemn her for forwardness? |
482 | How came he to do that?" |
482 | How can any woman who is not a mere man''s creature join him after what has taken place?" |
482 | How can he be clever? |
482 | How can it be?" |
482 | How can ye live in such a one- eyed place? |
482 | How comes he to have a daughter of that stamp?" |
482 | How could I?" |
482 | How could he have dreamed of kissing her? |
482 | How could she have expected any other kind of accommodation in present circumstances than such as Giles had provided? |
482 | How 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? |
482 | How could she so trust her father''s conjectures? |
482 | How could they all have been so simple as to suppose this thing could be done? |
482 | How do you like her house and her?" |
482 | How does he come here? |
482 | How does she happen to be riding there?" |
482 | How long has he complained of the tree?" |
482 | How should I know what folk mean if they do n''t say? |
482 | How, then, could she stand our ways?" |
482 | I am in hopes of having some good news to tell you soon, and then do you think you could-- come to me again?" |
482 | I 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?" |
482 | I do n''t doubt but that she will be all right soon.... I wonder how she is this evening?" |
482 | I have admired her infinitely, and I was coming to ask you if I may become better acquainted with her-- pay my addresses to her?" |
482 | I have brought the money back-- will you please return to her the agreement she signed?" |
482 | I hear that you lost your life- holds by the death of South?" |
482 | I mean, is he clever?" |
482 | I picked them up, and then--""Well?" |
482 | I saw him go out; where is he gone?" |
482 | I say, we''ll have a mossel and a drop o''summat to strengthen our nerves afore we vamp all the way back again? |
482 | I suppose it is of no use, but I ask, can not you hope to-- find a little love in your heart for me again?" |
482 | I wonder if it means anything?" |
482 | If it were Winterborne''s, he must be near her; why, then, had he not visited her? |
482 | If she encourages him, what can you wish for more?" |
482 | If so, why ca n''t I see him-- would it be so very wrong?" |
482 | If you did--""Would you give it to me?" |
482 | In half a minute the window was opened, and a voice said"Yes?" |
482 | In the evening her father, who knew that the note had come, said,"Why be ye not sitting down to answer your letter? |
482 | In the haste of his project he had not calculated upon a cry; but if one, why not more? |
482 | Is he dead? |
482 | Is he dead? |
482 | Is he here? |
482 | Is he hurted very bad? |
482 | Is he-- killed?" |
482 | Is it something like that?" |
482 | Is it to be a secret-- or do you mean war?" |
482 | Is she almost ready?" |
482 | Is there REALLY a new law? |
482 | Is there not a path to it across here?" |
482 | Lord, why ca n''t''em turn their plates bottom upward for pudding, as they used to do in former days?" |
482 | Melbury wanted to ask her a dozen questions-- did she not feel jealous? |
482 | Melbury, his heart throbbing against the other''s backbone, and his brain on fire with indignation, ventured to mutter huskily,"Why?" |
482 | Mr. Melbury, sir, as a man''s that put by money, why not retire and live here, and see something of the world?" |
482 | Mrs. Melbury said,"And is she quiet?" |
482 | Must I tell verbatim, you simple child? |
482 | My pure, pure Grace, modest as a turtledove, how came I ever to possess you? |
482 | Not Melbury?" |
482 | Now, 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?" |
482 | Now, darling, you will accompany me there-- will you not? |
482 | Now, my dear one-- as I MUST call you-- I put it to you: will you see me a little oftener as the spring advances?" |
482 | Now, shall we come in, or shall we go home and come back along in a couple of hours?" |
482 | ONLY days and days? |
482 | Perhaps you are deeply engaged?" |
482 | Perhaps you are now?" |
482 | Perhaps you do n''t know that we''ve a doctor living here now-- Mr. Fitzpiers by name?" |
482 | Perhaps you''ve noticed that she''s got a pretty side to her face as well as a plain one?" |
482 | Shall I do it for you?" |
482 | Shall I tell you all about Bath or Cheltenham, or places on the Continent that I visited last summer?" |
482 | Shall 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? |
482 | Shall we read a psalm over him?" |
482 | She added, playfully,"Man- traps are of rather ominous significance where a person of our sex lives, are they not?" |
482 | She had married him; there was no getting over that; and ought she any longer to keep him at a distance? |
482 | She had reached a gate, whereon she had leaned sadly, and whispered to herself,"What shall I do?" |
482 | She must be somebody staying at Hintock House? |
482 | She reddened a little and said,"How can you be so profane, Giles Winterborne?" |
482 | She, reproachfully:"What, call Mr. Winterborne a fellow, Edgar? |
482 | Should I tell more plainly?" |
482 | Should she tell? |
482 | So 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?" |
482 | Surely he has done it? |
482 | The look of his face-- what had there been about his face which seemed different from its appearance as of yore? |
482 | The question was, where should she get a medical man, competent and near? |
482 | The weather is almost all they have to think of, is n''t it, Mr. Winterborne? |
482 | Then another said,"What the devil is the matter with the horse?" |
482 | Then why should you, by a piece of perverseness, bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave?" |
482 | There was a dead silence of half a minute or so, till Suke said,"Why do n''t ye speak? |
482 | There was a stillness as of death, till Winterborne asked,"You mean this, Grace-- that I am to help you to get away?" |
482 | Unable 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? |
482 | Upjohn?" |
482 | Upjohn?" |
482 | Was it at Delborough?" |
482 | Was it not thinner, less rich in hue, less like that of ripe autumn''s brother to whom she had formerly compared him? |
482 | Was it really Mrs. Charmond speaking to her thus? |
482 | Was it worth while to go farther? |
482 | Was that after the fall seen by the boy?" |
482 | Well, how are you?" |
482 | Well, where are we? |
482 | What are you doing there?" |
482 | What are you going to do?" |
482 | What besides?" |
482 | What could be the cause of it? |
482 | What d''ye say so''s?" |
482 | What did you think of the inside of Hintock House the other day?" |
482 | What did your father say in that last letter?" |
482 | What do you know about life and what it can bring forth, and how you ought to act to lead up to best ends? |
482 | What good can you do to Giles by staying here with him? |
482 | What in the world can a woman that does nothing be cock- watching out here at this time o''day for? |
482 | What should he do-- appeal to Mrs. Charmond himself, since Grace would not? |
482 | What so likely as that she is not yet quite well, and does n''t care to let another doctor come near her?" |
482 | What terrible position am I in?" |
482 | What was the use of his rushing back to Hintock? |
482 | What will not women do on such devoted occasions? |
482 | What''s the matter?" |
482 | What, have you forgotten my voice?" |
482 | What, my dear, and have you got home safe? |
482 | What, then, had become of him? |
482 | What-- am I in the saddle?" |
482 | What-- cannot my father conclude it there and now? |
482 | When 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?'' |
482 | When are you going to enter on your new practice, and leave Hintock behind forever, with your pretty wife on your arm?" |
482 | When do we go, Edgar?" |
482 | Where are you? |
482 | Where is she-- Grace, I mean?" |
482 | Where to?" |
482 | Where were now her discreet plans for sundering their lives forever? |
482 | Who could have expected it? |
482 | Who is she, then?" |
482 | Who says I have won your daughter''s husband away from her? |
482 | Who was Felice? |
482 | Who would have thought such a business matter could have nettled my own heart like this? |
482 | Who''d ha''thought it? |
482 | Who''d ha''thought they''d ha''come so soon?" |
482 | Whose could that emotional face be? |
482 | Why could he not have proposed to walk with her part of the way? |
482 | Why could n''t she ha''bode with her father, and been faithful?" |
482 | Why did you come? |
482 | Why do you pursue me? |
482 | Why do you-- say that when you know better? |
482 | Why had he carried out this impulse-- taken such wild trouble to effect a probable injury to his own and his young wife''s prospects? |
482 | Why is that?" |
482 | Why not make inquiries? |
482 | Why should Death only lend what Life is compelled to borrow-- rest? |
482 | Why should I not speak out? |
482 | Why should he go farther into the world than where he was? |
482 | Why was this neglected? |
482 | Why, Marty!--whatever has happened to your head? |
482 | Will you help me? |
482 | Will you let him know this, that there may be no mistake?" |
482 | Will you promise?" |
482 | Will you think it over, and ask your parents if they are willing?" |
482 | Winterborne?" |
482 | Winterborne?" |
482 | Winterborne?" |
482 | Would it make you angry to know that I have been along this path at dusk three or four times since our last meeting? |
482 | Would you like to undertake it? |
482 | Would you think that each of these pieces of paper is worth two hundred pounds?" |
482 | Yes? |
482 | You are an Italian, or Spanish, or French gentleman, perhaps?" |
482 | You can help me, I dare say?" |
482 | You know what it means? |
482 | You mean with a view to marriage-- of course that is what you mean?" |
482 | You think there was something very fiendish in the compact, do you not, Miss Melbury? |
482 | You wish me to come and see her at once?" |
482 | You, so well read and cultivated-- how could he expect ye to know what tom- boy field- folk are in the habit of doing? |
482 | Your father does not know that you are here, so I suppose I shall be bound to tell him?" |
482 | Your husband used always to take you to the Earl of Wessex, did he not?" |
482 | have n''t you told her before?" |
482 | how can breaking it disgrace you?" |
482 | me dear-- what''s the matter?" |
482 | was she not indignant? |
482 | what did you do that for, Creedle?" |
482 | who hath bound the waters in a garment?" |
482 | why did he not ride up to the house in an honest way?" |
482 | why 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?" |
39238 | A contest on Orlean''s place? 39238 A sense of humor?" |
39238 | A son? |
39238 | A sort of cabaret? |
39238 | A suit-- want to obtain a judgment? |
39238 | A-- ah-- how are you? |
39238 | Ah-- ha-- who-- who-- who is th- is? |
39238 | Ai n''t I done outlined it right? |
39238 | And I venture to say that you have just about raised yourself? |
39238 | And did you wonder at my calling your name that night? |
39238 | And for that, for all that I have sacrificed, what am I given? 39238 And how about the women? |
39238 | And how are the crops? |
39238 | And how did you come to meet him, daughter? |
39238 | And how is Orlean? |
39238 | And how is everybody? |
39238 | And how is everything about the home, my son? |
39238 | And how long have you been here? |
39238 | And how''s hubby? |
39238 | And is it not a fact that Mrs. Pruitt as well as your daughter, explained it all at the time with satisfaction to you? |
39238 | And last summer you recall how it rained? |
39238 | And my plans are that you go over there, and see her? |
39238 | And she paid for it out of her own money? |
39238 | And since you have asked me, may I explain? |
39238 | And so you are sued for ten thousand dollars,said the attorney,"and by your son- in- law?" |
39238 | And the name? |
39238 | And the rest of the family? |
39238 | And then, forsooth, it must have been your daughter''s husband who was instrumental in saving the place for her? |
39238 | And what did I do to him? |
39238 | And what do you mean? 39238 And what do you think of him, my dear?" |
39238 | And what followed? |
39238 | And when you arrived you found her dead near the door, while your father lay murdered in the bed? |
39238 | And when you arrived, what happened? 39238 And when_ did_ you receive my letter? |
39238 | And where is my friend, Baptiste? |
39238 | And you are not worth ten thousand? |
39238 | And you can not possibly wait until next week? |
39238 | And you could not pay it? |
39238 | And you have me here and are caring for me? |
39238 | And you would like to see this Jean Baptiste? |
39238 | And you-- you have noticed it yourself? |
39238 | And you? |
39238 | And you? |
39238 | And yours? |
39238 | And, 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?" |
39238 | And-- and-- you have no more to report? |
39238 | And-- can''t you understand it, either? |
39238 | And-- you-- you-- have just come? |
39238 | Another beer, Cap''n? |
39238 | Any coal? |
39238 | Any evidence of a struggle? |
39238 | Anything else? |
39238 | Are n''t you coming down to supper, Orlean? |
39238 | Because what, dear? |
39238 | But I do n''t see the joke? |
39238 | But I have guessed correctly, have n''t I? |
39238 | But how came you with money? 39238 But how could you have missed the train so often?" |
39238 | But is that the fault of protestantism? |
39238 | But it was-- er, rather-- a little irregular, was it not? 39238 But we do n''t understand?" |
39238 | But what-- what became of their mother? |
39238 | But why did n''t you explain that Bill could stay home? |
39238 | But you are going away, dear, and will surely need money? |
39238 | But you did n''t come from there today-- this afternoon? 39238 But you have n''t answered my question?" |
39238 | But you''re engaged? |
39238 | But you_ did n''t_ see him come out of the house? |
39238 | But, Agnes, how came you here? 39238 But, mama, why?" |
39238 | But-- Agnes,_ why_? |
39238 | But-- but-- why-- for_ me_? |
39238 | By the way, Jean, why do n''t you marry my sister? |
39238 | Ca n''t you loan the old man the money? |
39238 | Can your father not understand, Orlean,he complained, with a deep frown,"that I can not accept his charity? |
39238 | Come to what? |
39238 | Could n''t dissuade him, eh? |
39238 | Did he give reasons? |
39238 | Did he say I could get up soon? |
39238 | Did he? |
39238 | Did it last until after you had left your bed? |
39238 | Did n''t I say hush? 39238 Did you crawl through all that storm?" |
39238 | Did you ever know a Negro preacher that was worth such an amount? |
39238 | Did 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?" |
39238 | Did you hear how he abused your father? |
39238 | Did you hear me, Aggie? |
39238 | Did you hear that, daughter? |
39238 | Did you hear the news? |
39238 | Did you love the man you were engaged to? |
39238 | Did you understand the words or any words he muttered? |
39238 | Do I look all right, mama? |
39238 | Do I think so? |
39238 | Do n''t they? |
39238 | Do n''t what? |
39238 | Do n''t you know that I have longed to see you, and that it has not been just right that I could not? |
39238 | Do you believe these statements? |
39238 | Do you happen to be acquainted with a family here by the name of McCarthy? |
39238 | Do you love me, Orlean? |
39238 | Do you recall it? |
39238 | Do you recall the day when I forgot, dear,_ The Custom of the Country-- and its law_? |
39238 | Do you recall, Mrs. Glavis, whether she screamed long, or whether it was brief? |
39238 | Do you reckon your father understood the love that was between us? |
39238 | Do you recognize my voice? |
39238 | Do you think so? |
39238 | Ever heard of State Street? |
39238 | Expression? |
39238 | For me? |
39238 | From your father, you mean? |
39238 | Granting that he secured a judgment? |
39238 | Has a doctor been here? |
39238 | Has she told you what I have been doing to her? |
39238 | Has some one come between you? |
39238 | Have I spoken rightly? |
39238 | Have I, now, really? |
39238 | Have truly forgotten that you are_ an Ethiopian_, and_ must share_ what is Ethiopia''s? |
39238 | Have you ever considered the outcome in case he should get a judgment against you? 39238 Have you heard the rest of it?" |
39238 | Have you rented your place yet? |
39238 | Have you tried elsewhere, father? |
39238 | He farms with his parents? |
39238 | He was? |
39238 | Her? 39238 His grandmother? |
39238 | How are you, anyhow? |
39238 | How could I forget it? |
39238 | How did they come to extend the note, father? |
39238 | How did you come to discover it, lady? |
39238 | How did you come to get kicked, Jean? |
39238 | How did_ you_ know it had just been committed? |
39238 | How do you account for him having done so-- if so? |
39238 | How do you feel? 39238 How do you like it in our country?" |
39238 | How do you like it? |
39238 | How is everything back home? |
39238 | How is she? |
39238 | How is that-- did you say that you_ drank_? |
39238 | How long after Baptiste left was it, before you followed? |
39238 | How long after the door slammed was it before your husband came? |
39238 | How long after you heard her scream was it before you came out of the room-- your room? |
39238 | How many of them? |
39238 | How shall we explain in regards to Bill?... |
39238 | How so? |
39238 | How so? |
39238 | How''s Doc? |
39238 | How''s that? |
39238 | How''s your neighbors across the road? 39238 How-- what kind of animal is it?" |
39238 | Hurt? |
39238 | I ask what you are doing at my house? |
39238 | I can not understand? |
39238 | I do n''t quite understand? |
39238 | I have never lied to you, have I? |
39238 | I have? |
39238 | I think you have met him, have you not? |
39238 | I wonder what he is doing here? |
39238 | I wonder what he''s been saying to Orlean? |
39238 | If it is quite fair, may I ask where or how your father came by such a name? |
39238 | In New York? |
39238 | In fact she was screaming still when you arrived at the door of the room, no doubt? |
39238 | In what position, Orlean? |
39238 | Is Miss Irene at home? |
39238 | Is it not possible that when you heard the door slam, that it was your husband coming in? |
39238 | Is it so, Jean? 39238 Is it-- it-- a_ woman_?" |
39238 | Is it_ you_? |
39238 | Is n''t it beautiful, Agnes? 39238 Is n''t it the truth, oh, my God, how can those people be so mean?" |
39238 | Is n''t it warm tonight? |
39238 | Is that all she received? |
39238 | Is that so? |
39238 | Is that so? |
39238 | Is this the Greys home? |
39238 | Is this you? |
39238 | Is_ that all_ you saw? |
39238 | Is_ this_ a fact? |
39238 | It is not so? |
39238 | It was not you? |
39238 | Jean? |
39238 | M- m. Was that the first time you had seen him? |
39238 | M- m. You say this was your daughter''s place entirely? |
39238 | M- m."How much do you plan seeding this season? |
39238 | M- m."How old is he-- a young man? |
39238 | M- m? |
39238 | May I consult with your wife? |
39238 | May I take your hat? |
39238 | McCarthy? |
39238 | Me? |
39238 | Me? |
39238 | Meaning that since she had gone and taken the land, you were morally bound to look into and consider the matter favorably? |
39238 | Mother? |
39238 | My folks? |
39238 | My wheat? |
39238 | Now 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? |
39238 | Now Mrs. Glavis, do you recall having ever heard your sister scream before in a like manner? |
39238 | Now there must be something? |
39238 | Now where is your sister- in- law? |
39238 | Now, look here, Reverend McCarthy,he said and his tone revealed his feelings,"what kind of a''stunt''are you pulling off with my wife?" |
39238 | Now, young man,his mother said to him the following morning,"you will get into clean clothes and stay clean, do you understand?" |
39238 | Now_ who_ do you reckon it was that interceded for me? |
39238 | Of course not, now that I recall it; but did you tell him about it? |
39238 | Of what? |
39238 | Oh, Pearl.... How is Pearl? |
39238 | Oh, baching? 39238 Oh, do you think so?" |
39238 | Oh, is that so? |
39238 | Oh, is that so? |
39238 | Our race? |
39238 | Out here, you mean? |
39238 | Out where? |
39238 | Papa,she said in her usual, but sleepy- like voice,"Is that you?" |
39238 | Play you a game of Casino? |
39238 | Say, Brookings,he opened,"what kind of deal is the old Scotchman up against out there? |
39238 | See who? |
39238 | Shall I hire a lawyer, Jean? 39238 So I do n''t guess I have it?" |
39238 | So it came that you sacrificed the real love to be loyal to the race we belong to? |
39238 | So that is how you came here? |
39238 | So you serve drinks here, then? |
39238 | So? |
39238 | So? |
39238 | So? |
39238 | So? |
39238 | Still single...."Thought she was engaged to be married when I was here last year? |
39238 | That would please me if you would condescend? |
39238 | The Watson place? 39238 The doctor, eh?" |
39238 | The joke? |
39238 | The wind? |
39238 | Then how? 39238 Then we can contest it?" |
39238 | Then what about their half brother in East St. Louis, eh? 39238 Then why do n''t you come on out here?" |
39238 | Then why not you and I get together on this proposition before the trial is called? |
39238 | Then you will? |
39238 | Then, how can you expect their followers to be? |
39238 | Then, when, Agnes? |
39238 | Then_ what_? |
39238 | Thinking? 39238 This is-- er-- rather unusual, do n''t you think?" |
39238 | This physician attended the girl while she was confined? |
39238 | Until you had left the room you were in? |
39238 | Was Baptiste aware that such a knife was in the room? |
39238 | Was it providence, or was it God that brought you that night and saved me from the slow death that was coming over me, Agnes? |
39238 | Was it_ I_ who brought all this? |
39238 | We 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? |
39238 | Well, Jean,she said now more soberly,"just what shall I do?" |
39238 | Well, are they as a whole? |
39238 | Well, dear? 39238 Well, how''s Chicago?" |
39238 | Well, how''s everything over home? |
39238 | Well, now, coming to think of it, it would, would n''t it? |
39238 | Well, now, to be frank, Duval,said Crook,"What do you think of it anyhow?" |
39238 | Well, the house where he stops is just a few doors-- about a half dozen-- up the street--"On the same side or the opposite? |
39238 | Well, what did they say? |
39238 | Well? |
39238 | Well? |
39238 | Well? |
39238 | Well? |
39238 | Well? |
39238 | Were those your folks I seen driving into town a while ago? |
39238 | Wh-- at a-- re yo-- u do- i- ng a-- t m- y h- o- u- s- e? |
39238 | What are you doing in here? |
39238 | What are you talking about? |
39238 | What are your plans, Jean? |
39238 | What did he say to it? |
39238 | What did he seem to think of it? |
39238 | What did you do with your little wife? |
39238 | What did you tell her? |
39238 | What do you mean? |
39238 | What do you think of it? |

39238 | What, papa? |
39238 | What-- what is the matter with him, Glavis? 39238 What-- why-- what''s the matter?" |
39238 | What? |
39238 | When did you discover this, madam? |
39238 | When did you leave home? |
39238 | When do they look for the Reverend in? |
39238 | When you happen to think of it; will you try never to allow yourself to resume that expression--_that_ expression again? |
39238 | When you left the hotel, where did you go? |
39238 | When, to your knowledge, was Baptiste last in the house? |
39238 | When? |
39238 | Where am I? |
39238 | Where are you? |

39238 | Which way do you live from town? |
39238 | Whiskey? |
39238 | Who are you? |
39238 | Who are you? |
39238 | Who bought your daughter''s place, my dear Elder? 39238 Who else?" |
39238 | Who has been murdered, and why am I accused? |
39238 | Who holds the place, did you say? |
39238 | Who is it out there? |
39238 | Who? 39238 Why are you laughing?" |
39238 | Why does he never ride in the daytime? |
39238 | Why have_ you_ waited so long to take such action, Glavis? 39238 Why is it so?" |
39238 | Why is it, dear? |
39238 | Why must this be so? |
39238 | Why not just go to one? |
39238 | Why not, Orlean? |
39238 | Why should I have done so when I did n''t feel to? |
39238 | Why should it please you? |
39238 | Why should n''t I? 39238 Why so? |
39238 | Why so? |
39238 | Why will he partake of the fuel he brought to keep from freezing, then? |
39238 | Why would you want to do that? |
39238 | Why would_ you_ want to see him? |
39238 | Why, Orlean, what has come over you? |
39238 | Why, my child, this-- this is rather sudden, is it not? 39238 Why, really-- when?" |
39238 | Why,he suddenly exclaimed, his eyes widening,"what is the matter?" |
39238 | Why-- Jean-- the man is-- drunk, is he not? |
39238 | Why-- what''s the matter? |
39238 | Why-- you have met my daughter? |
39238 | Why? |
39238 | Will Agnes tell me what has kept her so busy and away, I know not where? |
39238 | Will they not leave one? |
39238 | Will you kindly state to the court just what you overheard and know regarding this affair? |
39238 | With what were they murdered? |
39238 | Wo n''t you tell it to_ me_? |
39238 | Wo n''t you tell me what the matter is, mother? |
39238 | Won''t-- ah-- won''t you be seated? |
39238 | Wonder why he does n''t marry? |
39238 | Would n''t that be all right? |
39238 | Would n''t you like to go to town, papa? |
39238 | Would you care for it? |
39238 | Would you like to walk down by the river? |
39238 | Yes, what do you think of that? |
39238 | Yes? |
39238 | Yes? |
39238 | Yes? |
39238 | Yes? |
39238 | Yesterday? |
39238 | You admit to this, then, my dear Reverend? |
39238 | You are going back home with me tomorrow, dear? |
39238 | You are_ honestly_ happy, dear? |
39238 | You did n''t? |
39238 | You discovered this tragedy, madam? |
39238 | You do n''t live here? |
39238 | You have money? |
39238 | You have not traveled far? |
39238 | You have? |
39238 | You have? |
39238 | You infer that I have forgotten my troubles? |
39238 | You mean, I--"Yes,she said slowly,"you-- we understand each other and everything that has concerned each other, do n''t we, Jean?" |
39238 | You mean,she said, straightening curiously,"that you loved an Indian up there? |
39238 | You met him coming out of the house upon your arrival? |
39238 | You refer to me? |
39238 | You refer to that case on Vernon Avenue, madam? |
39238 | You saw this Baptiste leave the hotel? |
39238 | You say you saw him going north of town? |
39238 | You say, madame, that after you heard your sister scream you rushed from your room and to where she was? |
39238 | You think so? |
39238 | You want to do what? |
39238 | You will awaken me early tomorrow-- say, six o''clock? |
39238 | You will go back with me, and be mine, all mine and love me forever? |
39238 | You will grant that the individual in the controversy would likely be able to judge more correctly with regard to values? |
39238 | You will not go back today-- rather tonight? |
39238 | You''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? |
39238 | You? 39238 You_ think_ so?" |
39238 | You_ think_ you heard a door slam? 39238 Your mother is dead?" |
39238 | Your 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?" |
39238 | A white man or a Negro? |
39238 | After what Orlean said? |
39238 | Am I speaking correctly?" |
39238 | And how are you today?" |
39238 | And how do you happen to be down here in the spring?" |
39238 | And if even I believed you, how could I respect you?'' |
39238 | And it is not too much if one takes into consideration what you have done for-- I''ll be glad to go....""Done for what?" |
39238 | And now that she was away, to his mind first came the question,_ why_ was she away? |
39238 | And 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?" |
39238 | And what did_ you see_ when you came out?" |
39238 | And what do you think she had the nerve to say to me? |
39238 | And where may I see you-- say, tomorrow?" |
39238 | And yet, why was his wife in Chicago without even a letter from her to him; or one from him to her? |
39238 | And-- when will that be?" |
39238 | Another fence: who would furnish that two hundred and fifty dollars and secure him for the remainder? |
39238 | Any knowledge of what kind of bill was rendered by him?" |
39238 | Are the winters here as a rule as cold as this one has been?" |
39238 | Are you here on-- on your_ wedding trip_?" |
39238 | Are you in love with this man?" |
39238 | At where I board?" |
39238 | Baptiste?" |
39238 | Baptiste?" |
39238 | Baptiste?" |
39238 | Baptiste?" |
39238 | Besides, how did you know it? |
39238 | Besides, what would he do with the books when he had them? |
39238 | Besides,''I went on,''Why?'' |
39238 | Bill, however, not the least perturbed over his apparent breach of impropriety, became reseated, and resumed:"Well?" |
39238 | Blanche''s mother?" |
39238 | But Jean, do you want me to?" |
39238 | But did that stop her mouth? |
39238 | But did the Reverend? |
39238 | But here we are, compelled to be apart, and by whom?" |
39238 | But if he_ was awake, what was it he saw_? |
39238 | But is it not a fact that Mrs. Pruitt, with whom you are well acquainted, accompanied your daughter on this trip?" |
39238 | But it seems rather odd, does n''t it? |
39238 | But maybe I am entitled to hear it?" |
39238 | But the fact that others cultivate and heed such is no reason, dear, do you feel, that we should?" |
39238 | But was freedom all? |
39238 | But was she? |
39238 | But what can be done?" |
39238 | But what did he know of such? |
39238 | But why was there no evidence of a struggle? |
39238 | But you will do this favor which I ask of you?" |
39238 | But, sweet one, when are you going to become my own?" |
39238 | But_ could_ she? |
39238 | CHAPTER 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?" |
39238 | Ca n''t you take a joke?" |
39238 | Christine was not there, he knew, unless she had come that day, which was not likely.... Then_ who rode the horse_? |
39238 | Credit? |
39238 | Did he speak to you on the street?" |
39238 | Did n''t stop on the way anywhere?" |
39238 | Did the editor not have a conversation with you before the article appeared?" |
39238 | Did you meet anybody on the way?" |
39238 | Did you stop and talk?" |
39238 | Do I love you? |
39238 | Do n''t you think that if I secured a good detective to look into it-- this case, it would be the proper thing?" |
39238 | Do you realize, Agnes, had it not been for you, I-- I-- would not be sitting here now? |
39238 | Do you recall of having ever heard your daughter or any one say what deeded land in that section sold for?" |
39238 | Do you understand?" |
39238 | Does your head pain you much?" |
39238 | Duty? |
39238 | Even 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? |
39238 | Everything O.K.?'' |
39238 | Finally he heard himself speaking, and in a voice that seemed to come from far away:"Ah-- well-- did my wife have-- attention?" |
39238 | For what more could he have wished? |
39238 | Glavis glared at him as if to say,"Well, what business have you here, now?" |
39238 | Glavis?" |
39238 | Guess I may depend on you to be ready that day?" |
39238 | Had n''t you heard about it?" |
39238 | Had_ he_, done that, too? |
39238 | Has any one ever observed the fact before?" |
39238 | Has something happened? |
39238 | Have you a''phone?" |
39238 | Have you any idea who the plaintiff is going to use as witnesses?" |
39238 | Have you any knowledge as to how many visits this doctor made to the bedside of this girl when she was sick? |
39238 | Have you never heard of Jean Baptiste? |
39238 | Have you never seen a woman who never changed her mind-- especially when there was a man in the case?" |
39238 | Have you really not seen a colored girl in a whole year?" |
39238 | Have you sent him word when he could?" |
39238 | He caught his breath and held his hand over his heart, as he heard her voice:"Papa, is that you? |
39238 | He lowered his eyes in thought as his lips muttered:"Wonder where he is?" |
39238 | He 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?" |
39238 | He raised his hand to his head and was thoughtful, before saying:"Why were you so disturbed over me seeing the letter, Orlean? |
39238 | He 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?" |
39238 | He was not injured, she was relieved to see; but_ what was_ the matter? |
39238 | He was succeeding in the game of reform(?) |
39238 | He will be there over Sunday you say?... |
39238 | How can it be your fault when you have sacrificed the nice home in Chicago for this wilderness?" |
39238 | How could I get married? |
39238 | How could I? |
39238 | How did you make him understand?" |
39238 | How do you account for or explain that?" |
39238 | How far is that?" |
39238 | How long would it take for her to be his mate again at this rate? |
39238 | How should I know? |
39238 | How were you impressed with him when you met him later at this friend''s house?" |
39238 | How would he be able to face these friends if they failed to accept the book? |
39238 | I almost beseeched you, because-- oh, do n''t you understand what is in me, that I am as all men, weak? |
39238 | I hear they are parted?'' |
39238 | I said:''I do n''t understand you?'' |
39238 | I suppose I can count you as witness to the fact?" |
39238 | I 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?" |
39238 | I understand.... What do I want with him? |
39238 | I wonder if he could board me?" |
39238 | I wonder whether she will testify that she overheard your father- in- law abusing this Baptiste to his wife?" |
39238 | I-- would like to speak to you?" |
39238 | If he is still here, I will say:''this is the wrong number,''Get it?" |
39238 | If not, then, where might I find her?" |
39238 | If so then what would he write? |
39238 | In hell and its tortures did you say? |
39238 | Is 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?" |
39238 | Is it not so?" |
39238 | Is she a single woman or married?" |
39238 | Is that quite true?" |
39238 | Is this it?" |
39238 | It does n''t stop here; but you catch it and go to the station above here, do you understand?" |
39238 | It 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?" |
39238 | It 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? |
39238 | M- m. Then who purchased it for her, Reverend?" |
39238 | M- m._ Your father_ had it cashed for you?" |
39238 | McCarthy?" |
39238 | McCarthy_? |
39238 | Merley''s?" |
39238 | Merley?" |
39238 | My God, how could I be after what you have done to me, my life.... Why did n''t I come to the house?... |
39238 | Not away down on that farm southeast?" |
39238 | Now what would it all come to? |
39238 | Now, supposin''you married a white woman and brought her here to Chicago, who would you associate with? |
39238 | Now, what am I to do? |
39238 | Now, what am I to do? |
39238 | Now,_ are those girls_ straight?'' |
39238 | Now-- a-- who solicited that write- up? |
39238 | Or was it her presence? |
39238 | Perhaps it just happened so? |
39238 | Presently he said:"How much do you have to have to go down there?" |
39238 | Presently she said in a low voice:"Do you feel hurt badly, Jean?" |
39238 | Pruitt?" |
39238 | She called him:"Father?" |
39238 | She had been trained not to...."Now where did you meet Mr. Baptiste, my dear?" |
39238 | She says:''Is she sick physically, or mentally?'' |
39238 | She to her sewing, and Jean Baptiste to his thoughts.... CHAPTER II WHICH? |
39238 | She turned to him, and said:"What are you doing here?" |
39238 | Shortly she felt his hand upon her shoulder and she turned to hear him say:"Wo n''t you come back into the parlor? |
39238 | Should he confess? |
39238 | So he had arisen, that was sure; but why had he not come for his meal? |
39238 | So you are home to dinner?" |
39238 | Some you have bought since you have been married?" |
39238 | Soon she heard him, as she clung to his arm, allowing her body to rest against his shoulder:"How much for, Orlean?" |
39238 | Soon she said:"Do you play?" |
39238 | Tell them that it had been rejected as unavailable? |
39238 | That I shall return later in the day?" |
39238 | That much money?" |
39238 | That would be the first thing to do, would n''t it, Jean?" |
39238 | That, I recall is the home of the Sioux?" |
39238 | The melting smile she bestowed him with was quite sufficient, so seeing, he continued:"And do you wish to become his wife?" |
39238 | The old fellow who moved out here recently from Indiana?" |
39238 | The only question was, would E.M. Glavis have the courage to go through with it? |
39238 | The question is--""Are they worth anything?" |
39238 | The 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?" |
39238 | Then why did not he, Jean Baptiste, act? |
39238 | Then why should it be? |
39238 | Then, to whom? |
39238 | Then:"Are you married yet?" |
39238 | There is nothing wrong between us-- never has been, nor between you and I now either, is there?" |
39238 | Therefore, 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?" |
39238 | Thinking of what?" |
39238 | This, this, do you hear? |
39238 | Throw up my hands and quit, or try to see Orlean and get her around to reason? |
39238 | To 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? |
39238 | Wanta go long?" |
39238 | Was he aware also that the preacher occupied this particular room? |
39238 | Was it all because Jean Baptiste loved his wife? |
39238 | Was_ he_ the cause of what he saw in this girl''s face? |
39238 | Was_ this_ a proposal or was it a play? |
39238 | Well, here''s what it was, and I_ hope_ she said it:''Why, Ethel, how is Orlean?'' |
39238 | Were they not little boys once themselves?" |
39238 | What about this? |
39238 | What becomes of women who are deceived? |
39238 | What did he pay for the place?" |
39238 | What did it mean? |
39238 | What do you say to it?" |
39238 | What does she know about it?" |
39238 | What does that mean?" |
39238 | What happened next?" |
39238 | What is there between love and duty? |
39238 | What is your opinion, having been on the property, of its actual worth?" |
39238 | What part of Indiana do you come from?" |
39238 | What was it? |
39238 | What was passing in her mind? |
39238 | What was the nature of the land? |
39238 | What you want to ask me such a question for? |
39238 | When he had drunk deeply and lay back weakly upon the pillow, he heard:"How do you feel, Jean?" |
39238 | When shall I bring her?" |
39238 | When she met my eyes she sighed, and then said:''Do you think he can hurt papa, Mildred? |
39238 | When will your father- in- law be in?" |
39238 | When would the railroad be extended out of Bonesteel westward? |
39238 | Where did she sleep?" |
39238 | Where did you go, sweet one? |
39238 | Where is Speed, and the wife of his you ruined? |
39238 | Where is your sense of duty?'' |
39238 | Where shall we find him?" |
39238 | Where would they sit? |
39238 | Where? |
39238 | Where? |
39238 | Which? |
39238 | Which? |
39238 | Which? |
39238 | Who could keep from liking you?" |
39238 | Why ask me? |
39238 | Why did he contest the place, my dear Reverend?" |
39238 | Why do you not wear some of your summer dresses? |
39238 | Why do young men call to see any young ladies?" |
39238 | Why 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!" |
39238 | Why should he be seen? |
39238 | Why should they be separated? |
39238 | Why should we be keeping this a secret from him-- rather, why should I? |
39238 | Why was it that they understood each other so well? |
39238 | Why, why,_ why_? |
39238 | Why?" |
39238 | Why_ would n''t_ you be welcome? |
39238 | Will that be all right, dear?" |
39238 | Will that be alright?" |
39238 | Will you-- can you_ prove_ it?" |
39238 | With Jean? |
39238 | With sudden impulse, she turned to Mrs. Reynolds who had not interrupted:"It will be nice, now, wo n''t it?" |
39238 | Would it be worth while? |
39238 | Would you like to look forward and feel that you had to go through all your life what your mother has endured?" |
39238 | Yes, and where are my brothers? |
39238 | You are hurt, do you understand?" |
39238 | You are perhaps, then, newcomers here?" |
39238 | You are positive Jean Baptiste, here, killed your sister, also your father? |
39238 | You 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?" |
39238 | You have her, is she not enough? |
39238 | You have her, is that not enough? |
39238 | You loved none of us, perhaps, and it was because you had not had the opportunity, maybe?" |
39238 | You might have heard that Blanche is married?" |
39238 | You never, I suppose, informed her husband regarding the_ transaction_ after the deal was closed?" |
39238 | You''ll be so kind as to wait until then, will you not?" |
39238 | You_ 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. |
27 | A good few twins, too, I hear? |
27 | A large farm? |
27 | A strange vagary, this of hers, is n''t it, Oak? |
27 | A stranger? |
27 | A woman farmer? |
27 | About Baily Pennyways? |
27 | Affliction-- what affliction? |
27 | After that, do you think I could marry you? 27 Ah, neighbour Oak-- how''st know?" |
27 | Ah, when? 27 All I wanted to ask was, if anything had been heard of Fanny Robin?" |
27 | Although he made believe''tis only keeping up o''Christmas? |
27 | And did any of you know Miss Everdene''s- father and mother? |
27 | And do n''t victuals spring up as well as drink? |
27 | And have they done it as you wished? |
27 | And hope to obtain you? |
27 | And 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? |
27 | And how is she getting on without a baily? |
27 | And 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?" |
27 | And must you go? 27 And now you are entirely at leisure?" |
27 | And others thought so, too? |
27 | And shall I put up the banns in my parish, and will you in yours? |
27 | And she do n''t even let ye have the skins of the dead lambs, I hear? |
27 | And so you used to do''em the wrong way, like this, did n''t ye, Joseph? |
27 | And that story of the black man, who murdered his wife Desdemona? 27 And was that all?" |
27 | And were you indeed? |
27 | And what are the ties? |
27 | And what are you? |
27 | And what shall I do without you? 27 And what then?" |
27 | And what''s the news? |
27 | And you blamed me for it? |
27 | And you do n''t believe he is? |
27 | And you would n''t have him? |
27 | And, dear miss, you wont harry me and storm at me, will you? |
27 | Are any of my men among you? |
27 | Are you a woman? |
27 | Are you going across to the church, ma''am? |
27 | Are you going in? |
27 | Are you quite sure? |
27 | At any rate, the large ones upon the stone staddles? |
27 | Bain''t ye going to answer the man? |
27 | Bathsheba-- darling-- is it final indeed? |
27 | Beating people down? 27 Boldwood?" |
27 | But I thought it was I who had to call you? |
27 | But I--"Do you hear? 27 But about Fanny?" |
27 | But besides that? |
27 | But how can it give you pleasure to speak to me? |
27 | But how could you chop off a curl of my hair with a sword that has no edge? |
27 | But how was we to know, if you left no account of your doings? |
27 | But is it right? 27 But is it safe, ma''am, after what''s been said?" |
27 | But just now you saidties;"and then-- that woman we met?" |
27 | But soon is perhaps never? |
27 | But surely you will name the time, or there''s nothing in the promise at all? |
27 | But there is? |
27 | But they''re not gone to any war? |
27 | But why? 27 But why?" |
27 | But you ca n''t really care for a word from me? 27 But you know they think so?" |
27 | But you might at some future time of your life? |
27 | But 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?" |
27 | But, Mr. Boldwood-- six years--"Do you want to be the wife of any other man? |
27 | But, what are you going away for else? |
27 | But-- Miss Everdene-- you do forgive me? |
27 | Ca n''t you guess at all? |
27 | Can ye go on? |
27 | Can you ask Miss Everdene-- knowing as you do-- what my offence is based on? |
27 | Can you do it? 27 Can you get me a lodging?" |
27 | Can you jest when I am so wretchedly in earnest? 27 Coggan, suppose we keep this night''s work as quiet as we can?" |
27 | Coggan, you can ride bare- backed? 27 Come at last, is it?" |
27 | Come, madam, do you hear what I say? |
27 | D''ye think the barn is safe, Jan Coggan? |
27 | Dark as a hedge, to- night, is n''t it? 27 Dear me-- Casterbridge Union-- and is Fanny come to this?" |
27 | Deceived? 27 Did any one tell you to speak to me like this?" |
27 | Did anybody ever want to marry you miss? |
27 | Did anything seem upon his mind whilst he was speaking to you about this? |
27 | Did she walk along our turnpike- road? |
27 | Did the men think it odd? |
27 | Did ye ever go into the world to try and stop it, Joseph Poorgrass? |
27 | Did ye ever hear such onreasonable woman as that? 27 Did ye notice my lord judge''s face?" |
27 | Did you come by the carrier? 27 Did you hear the strange noise from the church yard?" |
27 | Did you notice Mr. Boldwood''s doings in church this morning, miss? 27 Do I?" |
27 | Do n''t any of the others know? |
27 | Do n''t you see, it altered all the chances? 27 Do we? |
27 | Do ye think he REALLY was out of his mind when he did it? |
27 | Do you know her? |
27 | Do you know his name? |
27 | Do you know how late they keep open the Buck''s Head Inn? |
27 | Do you know what they mean? |
27 | Do you know where he is? |
27 | Do you know who that woman was? |
27 | Do you know? |
27 | Do you like me, or do you respect me? |
27 | Do you now? |
27 | Do you now? |
27 | Do 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?" |
27 | Farmer Boldwood? |
27 | Farmer Oak-- and nobody else? 27 Father''s so old that''a ca n''t mind his age, can ye, father?" |
27 | Fearful, did you say? |
27 | Frank, dearest, is that you? |
27 | Gabriel, will you stay on with me? |
27 | Go, indeed-- what folly will you say next? 27 Got a pianner?" |
27 | Has William Smallbury returned? |
27 | Has n''t William Smallbury been to Casterbridge? |
27 | Have I hurt you, mate? |
27 | Have n''t I? |
27 | Have ye heard any more about that? |
27 | Have ye heard the news that''s all over parish? |
27 | Have you any money? |
27 | Have you been to ask them? |
27 | Have you brought your flute? |
27 | Have you done anything? |
27 | Have you heard a different story at all?'' 27 Have''em again?" |
27 | He got so much better, that he was quite godly in his later years, was n''t he, Jan? |
27 | He saidWhere are you going, my little man?''" |
27 | He''s an interesting man-- do n''t you think so? |
27 | Hear it? 27 Her young man was a soldier, was he not?" |
27 | How are you this morning, sir? |
27 | How can I help pushing ye when the folk behind push me? |
27 | How can I thank''ee? |
27 | How did Cain come by such a name? |
27 | How did you find me? |
27 | How did you get here from Weatherbury? |
27 | How did you know? |
27 | How do you know that? |
27 | How do you know? |
27 | How do you mean which? |
27 | How far is Shottsford? |
27 | How far is it to Weatherbury? |
27 | How long is it since you have been so afflicted with strong feeling, then? |
27 | How long would it take you to make a shepherd''s crook? |
27 | How long, miss? |
27 | How 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?" |
27 | How much to you? |
27 | How much? |
27 | How old is he? |
27 | How on earth did you come here? 27 How should I know her name?" |
27 | How will you? |
27 | How''s that? |
27 | How-- indeed? |
27 | How? |
27 | I 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?" |
27 | I beg yer pardon, but had she any young man court- ing her in the parish, ma''am? |
27 | I believe she did.... Ma''am, shall I call Liddy? 27 I ca n''t do what I think would be-- would be----""Right?" |
27 | I do n''t often cry, do I, Lidd? 27 I do n''t throw you off-- indeed, how can I? |
27 | I hope I am not a bold sort of maid-- mannish? |
27 | I hope you do n''t mind that young man''s bad manners in naming your features? |
27 | I may speak to you again on the subject? |
27 | I may think of you? |
27 | I shall not be your mistress much longer, shall I Gabriel? |
27 | I suppose you thought that when I galloped away to Bath that night it was on purpose to be married? |
27 | I suppose you''ve been speaking against her? |
27 | I think God likes us to be good friends, do n''t you? |
27 | I wanted to ask you if the men made any observa- tions on my going behind the sedge with Mr. Boldwood yesterday? |
27 | I wonder if I should have died? |
27 | I wonder what a farmer- woman can want with a harpsichord, dulcimer, pianner, or whatever''tis they d''call it? |
27 | I wonder who that is? |
27 | I''ll thank you to tell me if I''m in the way for Warren''s Malthouse? |
27 | I''m not so sure of that.... She''s a handsome woman, Pennyways, is she not? 27 I? |
27 | I? 27 If I wait that time, will you marry me? |
27 | If she''s-- that,-- what-- am I? |
27 | Is Fanny taken away? |
27 | Is it Sergeant Troy? |
27 | Is it hers, then? |
27 | Is it necessary? 27 Is it she?" |
27 | Is it true that Dicky Hill''s wooden cider- house is pulled down? |
27 | Is she alive? |
27 | Is she altered much? |
27 | Is she downstairs? |
27 | Is she married yet? |
27 | Is she pretty? |
27 | Is that a dark lantern you have? 27 Is that the law?" |
27 | Is that you, Laban? |
27 | Is that you, ma''am? |
27 | Is that you? |
27 | Is the sWord very sharp? |
27 | Just arrived from up the country, I think? 27 Laban?" |
27 | Lots ofem, i daresay.?" |
27 | Made up my mind? 27 Married?" |
27 | Matthew Mark, did you say? 27 Matthew just said----""Matthew Moon, what have you been saying?" |
27 | Miss Everdene and the soldier were walking about together, you say? |
27 | Never mind-- do you agree to my arrangement? |
27 | News? 27 Nor the little one by the stile? |
27 | Now just suppose Mr. Boldwood should ask you-- only just suppose it-- to run away with him, what would you do, ma''am? |
27 | Now, ma''am, and no offence I hope, I ask what dance you would like next? |
27 | O no, ma''am, You the cause of it, ma''am? |
27 | O, Frank, whose is that? |
27 | O, Frank-- do n''t you know me? |
27 | O, Troy, if you like her best, why then did you step in here and injure my happiness? |
27 | O, must I? 27 O-- how is it? |
27 | O-- what''s the matter, what''s the matter, Henery? |
27 | Of course not-- what footsteps are those I hear? |
27 | Oh, how can she be saved now, unless I marry her? |
27 | Oh, is it Gabriel? |
27 | One o''clock this morning? |
27 | Please, sir, do you know at what time Casterbridge Union- house closes at night? |
27 | Really, do ye? |
27 | Rooted? 27 Sergeant Troy?" |
27 | Shall I get you another cup before you start, ma''am? |
27 | Shall I get you something to eat, and something else to put over your head besides that little shawl? |
27 | Shall I tell her I have come to give her up and can not marry her? |
27 | Shall it be to- morrow, Frank? |
27 | She-- who? |
27 | Shepherd would like to hear the pedigree of yer life, father-- would n''t ye, shepherd? 27 Show myself a man of spirit? |
27 | Some of them? |
27 | Some of your uncle''s old ones, ma''am? |
27 | Sure of what? |
27 | Surely you might? 27 Tells you all her affairs?" |
27 | Ten and twopence halfpenny is the sum put down to you, I see? |
27 | That sum to include everything? |
27 | The next matter is, have you heard anything of Fanny? |
27 | The spree is all in her honour, is n''t it-- hey? |
27 | Them under the hedge? |
27 | Then they think I am in my bedroom? |
27 | There will hardly be time, ma''am, will there? |
27 | There''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? |
27 | This is the second time you have pretended to dismiss me; and what''s the use o''it? |
27 | This may be called Fort meeting Feeble, hey, Boldwood? |
27 | Try to think him a good man, wo n''t you, dear Liddy? |
27 | Very well then, Cainey Ball to be under- shepherd And you quite understand your duties? 27 Well, Laban, will you stay on?" |
27 | Well, Shepherd Oak, and how''s lambing this year, if I mid say it? |
27 | Well, have you seen him? |
27 | Well, suppose I do want it for races? |
27 | Well, what about Fanny? |
27 | Well, what besides? |
27 | Well, what did you see besides? |
27 | Well, what do you mean? |
27 | Well, what is it, Liddy? |
27 | Well, what''s the message, Joseph? |
27 | Well-- what have you come for? |
27 | Well-- what? |
27 | Well-- who gave it you, Teddy? |
27 | Well? |
27 | Well? |
27 | What about? |
27 | What did he do? |
27 | What did he say? |
27 | What did she die from? |
27 | What did they say? |
27 | What do you do on the farm? |
27 | What do you mean? |
27 | What do you say, Samway? |
27 | What do you see? |
27 | What does this mean? 27 What for?" |
27 | What has been done? |
27 | What have you been doing? |
27 | What have you been saying about her? |
27 | What have you to say as your reason? |
27 | What is her name? |
27 | What is it for? |
27 | What is it makes you cry so, ma''am; has anything hurt you? |
27 | What is it you are in doubt about, men? |
27 | What is it? 27 What is it?" |
27 | What is it? |
27 | What is the matter? |
27 | What kind of a person is he? |
27 | What makes you think he has gone there? |
27 | What may your age be, malter? |
27 | What must I say? |
27 | What shall I put? |
27 | What sort of a man is this Sergeant Troy? |
27 | What sort of a place is this to live at, and what sort of a mis''ess is she to work under? |
27 | What way? 27 What woman is that?" |
27 | What''s a- brewing, Henrey? |
27 | What''s the matter, in God''s name? 27 What''s the matter?" |
27 | What''s to be done? |
27 | What''s yer hurry then, Laban? |
27 | What, Beauty, and drag you after me? 27 What, did you think I should break in?" |
27 | What, found out stealing anything? |
27 | What, have n''t you a watch, miss? |
27 | What, then? |
27 | What-- that about Sergeant Troy being seen, d''ye mean, souls? |
27 | What? |
27 | What? |
27 | What? |
27 | What? |
27 | What? |
27 | Whatever IS going on, ma''am? |
27 | Whatever is the matter, men? |
27 | Whatever is the matter? |
27 | When are you going from here? |
27 | When did you say we must be at the door-- three o''clock? |
27 | Where be ye trading o''t to to- day, then, Joseph? |
27 | Where did you find''em? |
27 | Where is Oak staying? |
27 | Where is he gone? 27 Where is she?" |
27 | Where is your master the farmer? |
27 | Where''s the woman? |
27 | Where? |
27 | Where? |
27 | Which pair? |
27 | Which way have they gone, I wonder? |
27 | Which, poor Fanny? |
27 | Which? |
27 | White as a lily? 27 Who are you speaking of?" |
27 | Who are you, then, who can so well afford to despise opinion? |
27 | Who did you try? |
27 | Who has? |
27 | Who is he? 27 Who is she?" |
27 | Who is there? |
27 | Who''s been telling you I''m clever? |
27 | Who''s farm were you upon last? |
27 | Who''s t''other man, then? |
27 | Who''s there? |
27 | Who, mem? |
27 | Whose shepherd is he? |
27 | Whose sweetheart did you say, Joseph? |
27 | Why could you think such a thing necessary? |
27 | Why did Troy not leave my treasure alone? |
27 | Why did n''t you say so afore, then? |
27 | Why did the base- players finish their game so suddenly? |
27 | Why do n''t I? |
27 | Why does n''t Mrs. Coggan go to the door? |
27 | Why not ask him softer like? 27 Why not write to her? |
27 | Why not, ma''am? |
27 | Why should he inquire about Fanny? |
27 | Why should he? |
27 | Why should it be over so soon? 27 Why should we, miss?" |
27 | Why wo n''t you have me? |
27 | Why, pray? |
27 | Why, ye''ve hardly had strength of eye enough to look in our young mis''ess''s face, so I hear, Joseph? |
27 | Why? 27 Why?" |
27 | Why? |
27 | Why? |
27 | Why? |
27 | Why? |
27 | Will you confine your words to that one point? 27 Will you tell Miss Everdene that somebody would be glad to speak to her?" |
27 | Will you turn, Gabriel, and let me hold the shears? |
27 | Would you be good enough to untie me and let me out? 27 Yes""To- morrow?" |
27 | Yes, eight years-- and is it wrong? |
27 | You are Farmer Oak, are you not? |
27 | You are not a Weatherbury man? |
27 | You do give it? |
27 | You have the permission of the officers? |
27 | You knew I should, did you not? |
27 | You know perhaps what I long to say? |
27 | You saw there were no other tracks? |
27 | You see the artfulness? 27 You''ll marry me between five and six years hence?" |
27 | Your ricks are all covered before this time? |
27 | knitting? |
27 | where''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?" |
27 | A man came from the gate and said through the fog, which hung between them like blown flour--"Is that Poorgrass with the corpse?" |
27 | After all, how could a cheerful wearer of skirts be permanently offended with the man? |
27 | Am I any worse for breaking the third of that Terrible Ten than you for breaking the ninth?" |
27 | And Frank, when will it be?" |
27 | And 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?" |
27 | And did you love him, miss?" |
27 | And do n''t you know that a woman who loves at all thinks nothing of perjury when it is balanced against her love? |
27 | And how do she play?" |
27 | And how is it with you to- day, malter?" |
27 | And is he really come home, miss?" |
27 | And 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? |
27 | And where be ye trading o''t to now, shepherd?" |
27 | And why then did you come here again?" |
27 | And will you speak to me for these few weeks of my stay?" |
27 | And you can mind the old well that used to be in the middle of the place? |
27 | Anybody married or engaged, born or dead?" |
27 | Are they satisfactory women?" |
27 | Are you a woman yourself?" |
27 | At length Oak said, I''ve not seen you- i mean spoken to you-- since ever so long, have I?" |
27 | Ay, another time ye were lost by Lambing- Down Gate, were n''t ye, Joseph?" |
27 | Ay,"How do you know?" |
27 | Bathsheba burst out:"O Liddy, are you such a simpleton? |
27 | Bathsheba did not speak, and he mechanically repeated in an abashed and sad voice,--"Do you want a shepherd, ma''am?" |
27 | Bathsheba was decidedly disconcerted,"Well, then, why did you come and disturb me?" |
27 | Bathsheba, 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?" |
27 | Be ye any of Boldwood''s workfolk?" |
27 | Besides, we are not engaged in the usual sense, are we? |
27 | Boldwood added, after an interval of silence:"What did you ask, Oak?" |
27 | Boldwood approached Gabriel, and as Oak tied the neckerchief the farmer went on feverishly--"Does a woman keep her promise, Gabriel?" |
27 | Boldwood mistook his confusion: sensitive persons are always ready with their"Is it I?" |
27 | Boldwood?" |
27 | Boldwood?" |
27 | Boldwood?" |
27 | Boldwood?" |
27 | But could she go on to Liddy''s and leave things to take their course? |
27 | But do n''t talk of it-- seven or six years-- where may we all be by that time?" |
27 | But he feared to bring distress- ing memories back, and interrupted himself with:"Were you going into church?" |
27 | But is it wrong? |
27 | But not a man of spirit? |
27 | But since the case is so sad and oddlike, why do n''t ye give the conditional promise? |
27 | But since we do n''t exactly know what he is, why not behave as if he MIGHT be bad, simply for your own safety? |
27 | But surely you must have been told by everybody of what everybody notices? |
27 | But what''s yer hurry, Joseph? |
27 | But why should such a fair and dutiful girl have such an aversion to her father''s sex?" |
27 | But would n''t it have been different, or should n''t I have heard more, or would n''t they have found him, Liddy? |
27 | CHAPTER XLIII FANNY''S REVENGE"DO you want me any longer ma''am?" |
27 | Ca n''t my hair be brushed down a little flatter? |
27 | Ca n''t you read riddles? |
27 | Ca n''t you see? |
27 | Can I do anything to help? |
27 | Can I?" |
27 | Can 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? |
27 | Can you deny it-- I ask, can you deny it?" |
27 | Can you still go on re- minding me?" |
27 | Casterbridge Union?" |
27 | Concerning the flock? |
27 | Could it be that of the only venturesome woman in the parish-- Bathsheba? |
27 | Could she have been entrapped? |
27 | D''ye know if she''s got any other young man hanging about her at all?" |
27 | D''ye think I''d turn after that? |
27 | Dark? |
27 | Dialogues followed, more or lessin the subjoined for:--"Where do you come from?" |
27 | Did n''t you think it might be me?" |
27 | Did ye know''en, shepherd-- a bachelor- man?" |
27 | Do Ye know of anybody who wants one?" |
27 | Do n''t deny me the happiness of wearing it for my sake? |
27 | Do n''t you yet know enough of me to see through that miserable denial of mine? |
27 | Do not quite refuse?" |
27 | Do ye foller me?" |
27 | Do you hear?" |
27 | Do you hear?" |
27 | Do you hear?" |
27 | Do you heed me, neighbours? |
27 | Do you know at all who he could be?" |
27 | Do you know? |
27 | Do you think of going there to- night?" |
27 | Do you understand me? |
27 | Father, what sort of people were mis''ess''father and mother?" |
27 | Fifteen months nearly have passed since he vanished, and is there anything so wonderful in an engagement of little more than five years?" |
27 | For ye see, shepherd, though''tis very well for a woman, dang it all,''tis awkward for a man like him, poor feller?" |
27 | Gabriel shouted in his ear,"where''s your thatching- beetle and rick- stick and spars?" |
27 | Going in?" |
27 | Had he a moustache-- no whiskers or beard?" |
27 | Had he done this intentionally, yet contrived to make his death appear like an accident? |
27 | Had n''t I the first place beside you? |
27 | Has there been any change in mistress this afternoon?" |
27 | Have 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? |
27 | Have n''t you been almost mine once already? |
27 | Have you ever seen the play of"Turpin''s Ride to York?" |
27 | Have you found out whether she has encouraged him?" |
27 | Have you run me through? |
27 | Have you the registrar''s certificate?" |
27 | He carelessly said,"And am I to have anything now?" |
27 | He fur- tively said to a neighbour,"Is Miss Everdene considered handsome?" |
27 | He picked it up-- surely it could not be one of the primroses he had planted? |
27 | He said mechanically,"Ah, why?" |
27 | He smoked on awhile, and then added,"How did she look when you passed by yesterday?" |
27 | Henery said,"and Shepherd Oak do n''t mind his youth?" |
27 | Her mouth-- were the lips red or pale, plump or creased? |
27 | How came he to say that?" |
27 | How can I expect more? |
27 | How can you have the cruel heart to repeat what they say? |
27 | How come you to leave your last farm?" |
27 | How did she get here?" |
27 | How did this remarkable reappearance effect itself when he was supposed by many to be at the bottom of the sea? |
27 | How do you know it would suit me? |
27 | How long has she lived there?" |
27 | How much is that?" |
27 | How shall I get you to see how advan- tageous it will be to you to secure her at once?" |
27 | How was I to know that what is a pastime to all other men was death to you? |
27 | How would the farm go on with nobody to mind it but a woman? |
27 | How?" |
27 | However, does a woman keep a promise, not to marry, but to enter on an engagement to marry at some time? |
27 | However, my son William must have knowed the very man afore us-- did n''t ye, Billy, afore ye left Norcombe?" |
27 | I am so distressed about it-- can we save it any- how? |
27 | I fancy I heard his voice late last night; and so, knowing something was wrong----""Is he at home?" |
27 | I have never done you a single kindness, and why should you be so kind to me?" |
27 | I inquire that query boldly?" |
27 | I lived through the summers, did n''t I? |
27 | I suppose ye''ll say next I be no age at all to speak of?" |
27 | If she were to go to him now at once and say no more than these few words,!What is the truth of the story?" |
27 | In 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? |
27 | In the evening Troy said, suddenly--"Bathsheba, could you let me have twenty pounds?" |
27 | Indeed it is; how can you tell such a story, Liddy? |
27 | Is he with you?" |
27 | Is it true?" |
27 | Is n''t it, Joseph?" |
27 | Is that she there?" |
27 | Is there any late knot in fashion, Oak?" |
27 | It ought to be something extraordinary, ought it not, Liddy? |
27 | Jacob had served twice seven years for Rachel: what were six for such a woman as this? |
27 | Laban Tall, you''ll stay on working for me?" |
27 | Let''s look into Warren''s for a few minutes first, shall us, neighbours?" |
27 | Liddy 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. |
27 | Liddy 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?" |
27 | May I ask what dreadful thing it is that has happened between you and him?" |
27 | May I call in the evening, or will you walk along with me o''Sundays? |
27 | Might I not?" |
27 | Now after that revelation of how the land lies with Bathsheba,''twould be a mistake to kill me, would it not?" |
27 | Now whose was it? |
27 | Now you are not afraid, are you? |
27 | Now, before all the work- folk here assembled, can you swear to your words as the shep- herd asks ye?" |
27 | Now, dear Frank, when shall it be?" |
27 | Now, do you see the matter in a new light?" |
27 | Now, is n''t it preposterous, Gabriel? |
27 | Now, will you do this?" |
27 | O my darling, my darling, why do you keep me in suspense like this?" |
27 | O sir, will you not kindly forgive me, and look at it cheerfully?" |
27 | Oak is head man still, is n''t he?" |
27 | Oak?" |
27 | Oak?" |
27 | Pennyways snuffed the candle, and then looked up and deliberately inspected Troy"You''ve made up your mind to go then?" |
27 | Perhaps it is improper? |
27 | Really forgotten? |
27 | Rich and gentlemanly, what does he care?" |
27 | Said that, did he?" |
27 | Samway whispered,"have ye heard this strange tale?" |
27 | Seeing she made no reply, he said,"Do you read French?" |
27 | Seeing she turned a little aside, he said,"What, are you afraid of me?" |
27 | Shall I beg to a man who has begged to me?" |
27 | Shall I go and say you''ve come?" |
27 | She breathed; and then said mournfully:"O what shall I do? |
27 | She fleed at him like a cat-- never such a tomboy as she is-- of course I speak with closed doors?" |
27 | She interrupted with--"l wonder if Fanny is gone by this time?" |
27 | She said more distinctly,"Will you leave me alone now? |
27 | She suddenly exclaimed in an impulsive and excited whisper, Have you heard anything strange said of Fanny?" |
27 | She then broke out--"I may ask, I suppose, where in particular my unworthiness lies? |
27 | She was no otherwise than a girl mind, and how could she tell what the man was made of? |
27 | Should he go on, and care nothing? |
27 | Suppose we walk about in this wood?" |
27 | Surely I can do something?" |
27 | Surely you can say to me as much as this, you will have me back again should circumstances permit? |
27 | Tall appeared, and joined them"Well?" |
27 | Temperance Miller-- oh, here''s another, Soberness-- both women I suppose?" |
27 | That was n''t too strong for her, say?" |
27 | That''s it, is it not? |
27 | The dialogue went on:"How did you come here?" |
27 | The door opened, and a deep voice said--"Is Miss Everdene at home?" |
27 | The poor woman is dead, is n''t she, and what''s your hurry?" |
27 | The 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? |
27 | The woman''s past us-- time spent upon her is throwed away: why should we hurry to do what''s not required? |
27 | Then how had Troy got there? |
27 | There''s nothing remarkable in my saying so, is there? |
27 | Those of the farmers with whom she had no dealings by far the greater part) were continually asking each other,"Who is she?" |
27 | To 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?" |
27 | Troy been in to- night?" |
27 | Troy says so? |
27 | Troy, you will marry again some day?" |
27 | Troy-- you are not going?" |
27 | Troy? |
27 | Troy? |
27 | Troy?" |
27 | Troy?" |
27 | Turpin was a real man, was he not?" |
27 | Twenty pounds? |
27 | Understand? |
27 | V"How do I look to- night, Liddy?" |
27 | VII"How does this cover me?" |
27 | Was he mad-- had there been a quarrel? |
27 | Was his life so valuable to him after all? |
27 | Was she really beautiful? |
27 | Well, he''s turned out neck and crop, and my question is, who''s going to be baily now?" |
27 | Well, now then"-- she looked into the book--"Joseph Poorgrass, are you there?" |
27 | Well, what is there besides? |
27 | Well, will you let me work in your fields?" |
27 | Were n''t I stale in wedlock afore ye were out of arms? |
27 | What are they?" |
27 | What are you doing? |
27 | What did it matter about her not knowing it? |
27 | What did you say that for?" |
27 | What difference does it make whose sweetheart she is, since she ca n''t be yours?" |
27 | What do you think I have to say, then? |
27 | What does that mean?" |
27 | What girl are you?" |
27 | What had become of Boldwood? |
27 | What is it like? |
27 | What is it to me what he is? |
27 | What put that into your head?" |
27 | What shall I do to pass the heavy time away?" |
27 | What should she do now? |
27 | What then?" |
27 | What was the colour of Fanny Robin''s hair?" |
27 | What was this the light revealed to him? |
27 | What 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? |
27 | What will ye say next?" |
27 | What''s that prancing? |
27 | What''s this? |
27 | What''s to be done?" |
27 | What, then, were you following me?" |
27 | Whatever shall I do?" |
27 | When did she pass Weatherbury?" |
27 | Where are you going to- night? |
27 | Where are your pleasant words all gone-- your earnest hope to be able to love me? |
27 | Where could she find such a friend? |
27 | Where does he get his airs? |
27 | Where had he come from? |
27 | Where is your firm conviction that you would get to care for me very much? |
27 | Which seal shall we use? |
27 | Whither should he go?" |
27 | Who am I, then, to be treated like that? |
27 | Who can he have?" |
27 | Who sent you-- anybody?" |
27 | Who''s the fool now?" |
27 | Who?" |
27 | Whose should it be? |
27 | Why could n''t you have passed by me that night, and said nothing? |
27 | Why did n''t he stop at the gate? |
27 | Why did n''t you write to me?" |
27 | Why did''t he win you away before, when nobody would have been grieved? |
27 | Why do n''t you sit upstairs, ma''am?" |
27 | Why do you say that?" |
27 | Why had it been so mysteriously managed? |
27 | Why is it?" |
27 | Why must you meet her?" |
27 | Why should I read dismal books, indeed? |
27 | Why should she have done that strange thing? |
27 | Why should she have imagined him? |
27 | Why should you say that?" |
27 | Why ye know I would n''t harm a worm-- no, not one underground worm?" |
27 | Why, Gabriel, what are you going to do that for?" |
27 | Why, my boy Jacob there and your father were sworn brothers-- that they were sure-- were n''t ye, Jacob?" |
27 | Will it be by banns or license?" |
27 | Will you come and see me to- morrow, at Mrs. Twills''s, in North Street? |
27 | Will you come to the house?" |
27 | Will you kindly show me how to fix them properly?" |
27 | Will you let the matter rest now? |
27 | Will you marry me? |
27 | Will you now return, please?" |
27 | Will you read this a moment? |
27 | Will you sit down, please? |
27 | Would Miss Everdene sing to them the song she always sang so charmingly--"The Banks of Allan Water"-- before they went home? |
27 | Would 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? |
27 | Would you mind going on and leaving me? |
27 | Yer teeth bain''t half gone yet; and what''s a old man''s standing if se be his teeth bain''t gone? |
27 | Yielding women?" |
27 | You all know, neighbours, what a man I be, and how I come down with my powerful words when my pride is boiling wi''scarn?" |
27 | You are glad to see me, Frank?" |
27 | You are quite sure you will not hurt me?" |
27 | You are sure''twas she? |
27 | You bain''t well, ma''am, surely? |
27 | You can mind, Jacob? |
27 | You do n''t repent because you already love somebody better than you love me, do you?" |
27 | You have got quite cynical lately-- how is it? |
27 | You have never seen it played, I suppose?" |
27 | You know''em, Jan? |
27 | You''ll burn it, wo n''t you, Frank?" |
27 | and I said,"To Miss Everdene''s please,"and he said,"She is a staid woman, is n''t she, my little man?" |
27 | and will you shake them in for me?" |
27 | attested Jan must have a wonderful talented constitution to be able to live so long, must n''t he, neighbours?" |
27 | do you?" |
27 | exclaimed she, disconcerted,"how long have you been here?" |
27 | he added, making move- ments associated with states of mind rather than body;"we wish we were, do n''t we, neighbours?" |
27 | he said, with unreal carelessness,"if you know whose writing this is?" |
27 | is it kind to me to throw my mistake in my face? |
27 | is it?" |
27 | must n''t a lady move an inch from her door without being dogged like a thief?" |
27 | said Gabriel restlessly,"can you swear in the most awful form that the woman you saw was Miss Everdene?" |
27 | said Gabriel, impatiently,"what did you see, Cain?" |
27 | said 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?" |
27 | said Oak, sternly,"why will you run so fast and lose your breath so? |
27 | said Troy, as if inspired by a recollec- tion"do you know if insanity has ever appeared in Mr. Boldwood''s family?" |
27 | said she, though with- out pulling it away"But I suppose you are thinking you would like to kiss it? |
27 | said she,"will you move again, please, and let Mr. Boldwood come there?" |
27 | she inquired quietly,"where are you going?" |
27 | she said, quickly"What do you regret?" |
27 | take it careless- like, shepherd and your time will come tired?" |
27 | what do you want here?" |
27 | what have you been doing bringing trouble upon me in this way? |
27 | what in the name of fortune did you pretend to be Laban for?" |
27 | who for, miss?" |
27 | who''s dead?" |
27 | would you like to?" |
