11121''But did you not ask Cecilia about it?'' 11121 And how much does it cost?"
11121And is Louisa,said she to herself,"the only one who would stop to pity me?
11121And who is I?
11121And why do they hate it?
11121Are we friends?
11121Are you eating your early strawberries here all alone?
11121But why should it give her pain? 11121 But, dear Leonora, why should you lose it?"
11121But, my dear, how can Leonora tell whether your heart be good or bad? 11121 Could you let me look at it?"
11121Do n''t you perceive that, if you win it, you have nothing to do but to put the clasps a little further from the edge? 11121 Do you think, madam,"said she, with hesitation,"do you think, madam, that I have a bad heart?"
11121Have I not,said she to herself,"already won the prize of application, and can not the same application procure me a much higher prize?
11121How I should like to give this to Louisa,said she to herself; and at last breaking silence,"Did you promise it to the old lady?"
11121How can she be so happy?
11121I can not be surprised at this from you, Cecilia,said Leonora;"and do you then still love me as you used to do?"
11121Is this the same that I had before?
11121It is only a little box; would you like to have it? 11121 Must not this evening be given to the most amiable?
11121Nay, but why not? 11121 No, but am I not your friend?"
11121O no; I did n''t hear you come in; but what have you got there?
11121Then if it had been for the most amiable it would not have been for me?
11121Well, Louisa,said she, smiling,"will you promise me?"
11121Well, then, to begin with what you do understand, tell me, Cecilia, do you really think it possible to be wicked merely for the love of wickedness? 11121 Well, what do you want with me?"
11121What are you doing there, little one?
11121What are you doing with them-- can''t you answer then? 11121 What have I done?"
11121What is that?
11121What would you be pleased to want, Miss?
11121What?
11121Who is there?
11121Why should not I call you child?
11121Why, my dear, what is the matter?
11121Why, what keeps you here, my dear-- where are your companions? 11121 Yes, but,"said she, stopping herself,"how can I confess it?
11121Yes,said Cecilia,"and guess who it''s for?"
11121You do n''t, do n''t you?
11121At last,"Where is Leonora?"
11121But how can you, Cecilia, who feel such a strong sense of shame, and such an eager desire to improve, imagine that you have a bad heart?"
11121How shall I beg Leonora to forgive me?
11121I ca n''t unscrew it; will you try?"
11121I dare say, however, when your passion is over, and when you recollect yourself, you are very sorry for what you have done and said; are not you?"
11121I have now as good a chance as Leonora, perhaps a better; and must I give up all my hopes?
11121If I should not win the prize, how shall I confess what I have done?
11121Mrs. Villars, smiling--"Why, what do you think yourself, Cecilia?
11121Was that unjust?"
11121What are you about?"
11121Who sung so sweetly as Leonora?
11121Whose, then, will it be?"
11121Why, madam, because they have all left me, and----""And what, my dear?"
11121_ Can_ I?"
11121_ Can_ I?"
11121and what Leonora gave me?
11121and when it was broken, could I do more than promise her another?
11121called her impatient companions;"do n''t you hear us?
11121exclaimed Louisa,"this must be Cecilia''s box; look, do n''t you see a great L at the bottom of it?"
11121gone where?"
11121is this the evening?"
11121or who danced so nimbly as Louisa?
11121repeated Leonora;"what of Cecilia?"
11121said Cecilia, eagerly,"who begins?"
11121said she to herself,"is it possible that I have sold what I promised to keep for ever?
11121said she;"then I ca n''t have it-- where''s the mandarin?
11121what would Leonora, what would Louisa, what would every body think of me, if the truth were known?"
11121what''s its price?"
11121who would have thought that you had a bad heart?"
11121why, what put that into your head?"
11121will you never come?
11213About Reuben,returned Edward?
11213And pray under whose charge was he left?
11213Are you sure it was open, Reuben? 11213 But mamma,"asked Marten,"why do you fear for me?
11213How are they distinguished?
11213It was open, you say,replied the elder boy,"but how could that be?
11213Should you not like to see the large black dog?
11213Stop, stop, master Marten,replied nurse,"what is all this about?
11213That is enough, is it not?
11213There,exclaimed Jane,"what are you teasing the little one so for?
11213Was the door of the aviary open?
11213What are the principal of the arts?
11213What is meant by the terms art and science?
11213What makes the weight go down to the bottom of a clock?
11213What? 11213 When you open a door, what is the weight that you move?"
11213When you throw a ball, what becomes of it?
11213Whose doves are those, I say? 11213 Why Marten, old fellow, what are you doing here?"
11213Will you give it me again in a minute or two, as I come back,asked Marten?
11213Would you tell me if Reuben is content?
11213Your''s or mine, nurse? 11213 ca n''t the servants take care of him at home?
11213Am I ever obstinate or rebellious to you?
11213Am I not steady, mamma?
11213And are we not children of a large growth?
11213And supposing he does go with you, master Marten, who is to put the dear child to bed at nights?
11213Are you come to make an apology for your rudeness this morning?
11213Are you not a weary little fellow, darling?"
11213But observe the little one, what makes his cry of''Mamma, Mamma,''cease?
11213But why does little Reuben suddenly move his curls from off his cheek?
11213But, master Marten, how can you play or go about with master Jameson, and yet attend to this child too?"
11213Describe the remaining parts of the flower?"
11213Do not I like to do what you and papa tell me to do?
11213Do you dare?"
11213Has he left Reuben?"
11213Have you anything more you wish done, papa?"
11213Have you ever heard of a person who it is said once looked for a needle in a pottle of hay?
11213I have taken charge of Reuben whilst mamma is away, and what can I do about him?"
11213Imagine, then, ought passing these two children, which could pollute their persons, what would be their feelings?
11213Indeed, I am sure they would not, if they were at home, but what am I to do with Reuben?
11213Is he gone?
11213Let me then ask you, do you in any way follow this kind command when you so treat your teachers and governors?
11213Of what are tools made?"
11213Of what is clothing made?"
11213Of what is furniture made?"
11213Poor baby, what availed it then?
11213Though what could they, poor human creatures, have taught him?
11213Well for their happiness-- mistress will soon be at home to attend to them herself; but what are you going to do with the child, my own darling?
11213What are the marks distinguishing the convolvulus tribe?"
11213What are the objects of all manufactures?"
11213What are you come here for?
11213What cared he for that?
11213What do you mean, nurse?"
11213What mattered it to Reuben, that his kind friend in his joy at their meeting had absolutely overturned the child upon the ground?
11213Where can Marten be?
11213Whom do you want?
11213Wo n''t you come, Marten?
11213Wo n''t you, my pet?
11213am I to find them before I feed them, master Marten?"
11213and are not innocent pleasures and consolations put in the way of every child of God?
11213and why does a merry little laugh escape his lips?
11213are not our sorrows soothed and relieved by our Creator''s mercies?
11213are they your mother''s?
11213did Louisa desire a rival?
11213do you mean to say I would play tricks with my own brother?
11213have you let them loose-- Eh?"
11213it is you, is it?
11213or did you open it yourself?"
11213what did you want?
11213why does he listen, as he never listened before?
11213why not let him have his own way and come amongst us, if he will?"
11213your things and master Reuben''s, do you say, are to be got ready for two day''s visit-- and the doves fed?
5676And it was you all the time?
5676And what did you do with the clothes you took off her? 5676 But where are the flowers?"
5676But where is the wise woman?
5676But which is the real you?
5676Can not you rise, and walk down the hill, and through the wood?
5676Can there be such a city in the world?
5676Could n''t you help me?
5676Did my pony hurt you?
5676Did you never see me before, Rosamond?
5676Has she more than two? 5676 Have n''t we given her every mortal thing she wanted?"
5676Have you got any in your lap? 5676 How can you tell that?"
5676How could you love such an ugly, ill- tempered, rude, hateful little wretch?
5676How did that ragged girl get in here? 5676 How is it that you make them grow?"
5676How should I know? 5676 I humbly beg your Majesty''s pardon,"said the soldier,"but what was I to do?
5676Is that something terrible?
5676Is there a picture of her anywhere in the palace?
5676MAY I try again?
5676Madam,said the shepherd,"may I not go with you now?"
5676My pet of pets?
5676Need I say any thing?
5676Or a thousand others?
5676Please your Majesty, what am I to do with her?
5676Surely,said the wise woman:"what else could have all but killed her?
5676Treated her badly?
5676WHAT princess?
5676Was that woman his mistress?
5676Was the lost princess so very beautiful?
5676What do you want?
5676What is the meaning of this?
5676What was she like?
5676Where are you hurt, child?
5676Where do you get them?
5676Where is Prince?
5676Where is my Ally?
5676Where''s your mother?
5676Who accuses me of crime?
5676Who can she be?
5676Why did n''t she take me with her?
5676Why did you not bring her at once to the palace,pursued the king,"whether you knew her to be a princess or not?
5676Why does she say her TWO arms?
5676Would you like to ride my pony?
5676You do n''t mind it, then?
5676You do n''t mind me having such a pony?
5676You know now the kind of thing you have to meet: are you ready to try again?
5676You will tell me what it is before it begins?
5676--there( would you believe it?)
5676And the little girl said,"Who are you?"
5676And what was Agnes doing all the time the wise woman was talking to her?
5676And who could tell but some of them might break from their covert and sweep like a shadow across the heath?
5676And yet( would you believe it?)
5676Are they not written in letters of gold upon the brazen gates of this palace?"
5676But the queen cried out,--"Get away, you great rude child!--Will nobody take her to the rack?"
5676Could any but a low creature be conceited of not being contemptible?
5676Did she not tell you the beasts would not touch you?"
5676Does Mistress Ogress fancy a princess will bear that?"
5676FREE was she, with that creature inside her?
5676For a moment she feared the old woman would be offended, but the next, there came a voice, saying,"Who is there?"
5676Have you forgotten how you kissed me this morning?"
5676He knew she was not one of his; but where could she come from, and where could she go to?
5676How could there be a universe in that case?
5676How did you become so sweet?"
5676If I had not loved you, do you think I would have carried you away in my cloak?"
5676Is there another?"
5676Is there treason in that?"
5676On the contrary, she thought she had a perfect right to be angry, for was she not most desperately ill used-- and a princess too?
5676Sell them?"
5676She might call and shout, But no one about Would ever call back,"Who''s there?"
5676She turned to the wise woman and said:"Will you forgive ALL my naughtiness, and ALL the trouble I have given you?"
5676Strange, was it not, that she should have been so long with the wise woman, and yet know NOTHING about that cottage?
5676The ugly creature whose presence had made her so miserable had indeed crept out of sight and mind too-- but where was she?
5676Then Agnes said,"Who are you?"
5676Then her mind collapsed to the thought-- had the pony grown too?
5676Then in her terror the princess grew angry, and saying to herself,"She must be somewhere in the place, else who was there to open the door to me?"
5676Then the princess knocked again, this time with her knuckles, and the voice came again, saying,"Who is there?"
5676Was he looking for her?
5676What could he be after?
5676What could it mean?
5676What could it mean?
5676What could the old woman have meant by telling her not to leave the cottage?
5676What else could there be?
5676What honest boy would pride himself on not picking pockets?
5676What is there to choose between a face distorted to hideousness by anger, and one distorted to silliness by self- complacency?
5676What is to be done?"
5676What would Prince think of her, if he knew?
5676Would you like a ride upon him?"
5676and again,-- She might call and shout, And no one about Would ever call back,"Who''s there?"
5676asked Rosamond;"this or that?"
5676cried the shepherdess,"how are we two to get home without you?"
5676have I a scullery- maid in my house born of such parents?
5676mind it?"
1195A great difference?
1195About Flora Saunt?
1195All alone?
1195And what does her husband think?
1195And what keeps you? 1195 And what may your opinion be?"
1195But does n''t he know? 1195 But from what cause?
1195But if that fellow is shocked at the precautions she does take?
1195But it''s a tremendous secret?
1195But what does it matter where or how, for the present, she lives? 1195 Condemned to what?
1195Could n''t something be got out of the people she has consulted? 1195 Could n''t_ you_ perhaps take her, independent, unencumbered as you are?"
1195Did she tell you how much the Hammond Synges have kindly left her to live on? 1195 Do you mean that Miss Saunt ought to sport such things?"
1195Do you mean there''s a danger of anything very bad?
1195Do you mean to say her eyesight''s going?
1195Does n''t she care for that?
1195Everything?
1195Has any rumour ever reached you of Miss Saunt''s having anything the matter with her eyes?
1195Has he seen her as she is now?
1195Has n''t she then married Lord Iffield?
1195Have you never guessed? 1195 Her husband?
1195How can I tell what passed between them? 1195 How can you?
1195How do you know what I would n''t do?
1195How should I know? 1195 How_ could_ we?
1195How_ does_ she take life? 1195 In spite of which you do n''t think she''ll be saved?"
1195Is it true, Miss Saunt,I suddenly demanded,"that you''re so unfortunate as to have had some warning about your beautiful eyes?"
1195Is there anything in it? 1195 Oh the glasses-- in her beauty?
1195Oh who knows?
1195Published-- already?
1195She did n''t write to you?
1195Stir him up?
1195Then what has become of him?
1195Then why did you tell me your story?
1195Then you do believe that she may be?
1195True? 1195 Use them?
1195Vous- en- etes la?
1195Was he rough with her?
1195What is it then?
1195What then did Mrs. Meldrum tell you?
1195What would become of Lord Iffield if she were suddenly to come out in them? 1195 What''s the matter with her eyes?"
1195Who in the world is her special adviser?
1195Whom will she marry?
1195Why did you never write to me of your marriage?
1195With whom should I go? 1195 Would you like to paint me now?"
1195Yet its attractions say nothing to Flora?
1195You already know?
1195You have n''t quarrelled with her?
1195You''ve already seen her and she has told you her wondrous tale? 1195 After a considerable interval, while I botched away, he suddenly said:Did they make a great difference?"
1195But when the deuce is she alone?
1195Condemned to perpetual nippers?
1195Did n''t I make the quick calculation that if he did n''t catch what Flora was doing I too might perhaps not catch it?
1195Did n''t he see on what flimsy ground the structure rested?
1195Had n''t he been a friend of one of her nephews at Oxford?
1195Has he given no sign?"
1195Have you got her for the rest of your life?"
1195He told me I made him see things: to begin with, had n''t I first made him see Flora Saunt?
1195How could she ever have got engaged if she had made herself a fright from the first?
1195How else can she have been condemned?"
1195How indeed could a person speak the truth who was always posturing and bragging?
1195How will any one ever look at her if she makes herself a fright?
1195I seemed somehow to see her go forth to her fate, and yet what should fill out this orb of a high destiny if not such beauty and such joy?
1195I''d go to- morrow if I hear she wants me; but what in the world can she ever want?
1195If he was smitten with Flora''s ghost what might n''t be the direct force of the luminary that could cast such a shadow?
1195In that case how could she take life as she does?"
1195Meldrum''s?"
1195Meldrum''s?"
1195Meldrum?"
1195Meldrum?"
1195Only what did that prove?
1195Our incident had produced a certain awkwardness, and while I was thinking of what next to say she exclaimed irrelevantly:"Do n''t you know?
1195Que voulez- vous?
1195Was her reason that I had displeased her and that she wished to punish me?
1195Was she really now marching away from it?
1195What has become of her?"
1195What husband?"
1195What indeed would become of every one, what would become of everything?"
1195What was it that at last induced her to submit to him?"
1195What was the value of tributes to beauty by a hand that could so abase itself?
1195What were most of her friends-- what were all of them-- but repudiated idiots?
1195What, at any rate, if she does look queer?
1195Wherein after all does it concern you to know the truth?
1195Who in the world says so?"
1195Why, if you valued my peace of mind, did you let him the other day at Folkestone dawn upon my delighted eyes?
1195Wo n''t you come with me?"
1195_ Is_ her general health--?"
43134A girl in black-- at the Leslies''musical party? 43134 Accusing me vaguely of unworthy motives-- what_ could_ she mean?"
43134And that''s the best even you can say of me?
43134And what is wrong, then?
43134And you were falling in love with her? 43134 And--"she went on,"if all is satisfactory--""Well?"
43134Are you going to stay at home now, or are you going away again?
43134But if she likes to face it-- would not that bring out the best of you?
43134But why-- oh, why, if you care for me, though I can scarcely believe it, why let my horrible money come between us? 43134 But--"said Despard, puzzled by her manner,"he is surely able to help you?"
43134Can he know about her? 43134 Can you carry your memory back, let me see, nine, ten years?"
43134Come, now,he said again, in a different tone,"are you sure, Bessie?
43134Conrad, how_ can_ you be so unfeeling? 43134 Despard, is your head worse?"
43134Despard,she exclaimed breathlessly,"have you, can you, have fallen in love?"
43134Despard,she said after a little silence,"shall I try to find out all about her from Mrs Englewood?
43134Despard,she said,"what do you mean?"
43134Despard,she said,"why do you look like that?
43134Did n''t you know?
43134Do you mean am I sure she cares for me?
43134Do you mean by that that you will_ not_ take me downstairs?
43134Do you really mean it, dear?
43134Do you really?
43134Do you remember if at that time you spent a winter in London; or was London your home?
43134Even if I succeed in making him understand_ your_ side, and showing him how generously you regret having misjudged him?
43134Excuse me,he said,"do you know Lady Margaret-- by sight?
43134Has the letter gone, Maddie?
43134Have you travelled much?
43134He is going to play now at making me fall in love with him, is he? 43134 He looked so fearfully white,"she said;"do-- do men always look like that when girls refuse them, I wonder?"
43134How did he get me to come? 43134 How do you do, Mr Norreys?"
43134How do you do, Mr Norreys?
43134I have never given_ you_ reason to doubt it, surely, Maddie?
43134I wonder,said my sister,"if her face is as lovely as her hair?
43134If you do, I-- I will swallow_ my_ pride, too; shall I?
43134Indeed,she said; while"where?
43134Is she hitting at me again?
43134It does n''t matter,Despard replied, as he got into the carriage;"but did you not get my message?"
43134It is hot and glaring on the lawn, is it not? 43134 It is, I suppose, what we are standing up here for, is it not?"
43134Look,he said,"do you remember?
43134Maddie,he said,"do n''t you understand?
43134May I ask--?
43134May I-- will you not give me another dance?
43134Miss Ford,murmured young Leslie,"may I introduce Mr Norreys?"
43134My dear child,ejaculated her cousin,"what do you mean?"
43134Oh, dear yes-- didn''t you know? 43134 Oh,_ do_ you think so?"
43134One a week-- what''s that? 43134 Or, or any one very decidedly beneath you?"
43134Shall I?
43134So your husband is the laggard, in spite of his boasted punctuality, Mrs Greatrex?
43134That fellow I found in the grounds at that place, is it?
43134Then shall we go upstairs again?
43134There''s nothing the matter, is there? 43134 Touch of sunstroke-- eh?
43134We are always running against each other unexpectedly, are we not?
43134What is there so dreadful about it?
43134What was there remarkable about her? 43134 What-- you do n''t mind telling me-- what is her name?"
43134Where is she? 43134 Where?"
43134Who was it, Vic?
43134Who?
43134Why I ventured to disturb you?
43134Why, do you believe in that? 43134 Why, what''s the matter?"
43134Why, when one''s made up one''s mind to do a disagreeable thing, should everything conspire to make it more odious than it need be, I wonder? 43134 Why?"
43134Will you dance?
43134Wo n''t you tell me what you were going to say?
43134You do n''t care to stay any longer, I suppose?
43134You have seen Mrs Englewood? 43134 You proposed to her?"
43134You will go through with it?
43134Your father?
43134A queer, a very queer feeling had come over me, at that mention, by her husband, of Mrs Greatrex''s_ hair_--could it be?
43134And Despard?
43134And again he unaccountably hesitated-- what was the matter with him?
43134And is it so improbable that a girl would care for me?"
43134And not pretty, you say?"
43134Are you afraid of the draught?"
43134But of course if she did--""And you are sure she would?"
43134But what did it matter?
43134But what has made her judge me so cruelly?
43134But-- Maddie,"he added, half timidly,"you''ll write at once?"
43134Did n''t you notice this?"
43134Do n''t you see how lucky it was?"
43134Do you know who the young man was that gave me your message?"
43134Do you think she knows anything against the girl, or her family, or anything like that, and that she was afraid of it for you?"
43134Does he really imagine he can take me in?"
43134Had he met her before in some former existence?
43134Had the sunstroke affected his brain?
43134Has she passed this way?"
43134He glanced round; the whist party was all unconscious of the rest of the world still--"Will you not sit down for a moment, Lady Margaret?"
43134He was the last man''s cousin, you say?"
43134How do you mean?"
43134How in the world did you get Marrinder to come?"
43134How was it so?
43134How_ could_ the child have been spirited all the length of the station in that instant of time?
43134I am no hero-- but now-- you will forgive my hesitation and-- and reluctance, will you not?
43134I could not imagine Bronzie by that name-- my stately little maiden-- what if it_ were_ though?
43134I may hope some other time, perhaps, to do so?
43134I must never let her know how impossible I find it to resist drawing him out-- it surely is not wrong?
43134I shall be glad to be at home again; wo n''t you?
43134I think she was rather disappointed not to see the famous Despard Norreys, do you know?
43134I''ll wait for her at the old church, would you say?"
43134I_ was_ engaged for this dance-- the tenth, is n''t it?
43134If I had not been what you call` commonly civil,''would he have gone on talking to me?
43134Is he not delightful?"
43134Is there some one there we know?"
43134Isabel exclaimed;"whom are you speaking of?
43134Mrs Selby, of Markerslea, I suppose?
43134No girl can despise a man for the fact of his caring for her-- what can it be?
43134One of her great beauties is her hair; I wonder if you''ll like the way she--; what''s the matter?"
43134Only just tell me--"she added anxiously,"there is n''t anything wrong with your heart, is there?"
43134Supposing I heard she was married?"
43134Tell me, was that after?
43134Then I ca n''t be of any service?"
43134Till to- day-- has the change in her all come from what I said to- day?
43134Was he being taken in by a designing girl?
43134Was n''t it nice of her?
43134Was she playing him off?
43134What can have happened at the evening party?
43134What else could he do?
43134What had I done, what was I that you should have thought any good of me?
43134What has changed you?
43134What has disappointed you?"
43134What in the matter, dear Despard?
43134What then caused his sudden misgiving?
43134What were you going to say?"
43134What''s the matter, Despard, for that there is something the matter I am convinced?"
43134Where in Heaven''s name has Gertrude Englewood unearthed her from?
43134Who is she?"
43134Why did all about her seem at once strange and yet familiar?
43134Why did n''t you tell us before?"
43134Will you ask her to dance?
43134Will you be so awfully good as to take her down for an ice or something?"
43134Will you, Mr Norreys?"
43134Would I-- tell me, is it likely that_ I_ would take to a girl so utterly devoid of delicacy as your words sound?
43134You are generous I know, and my frankness will not injure me with you, will it?
43134You are not going to say that now, because she is an heiress-- just because of_ money_,"with a tone of supreme contempt,"that you will give it up?
43134You did n''t say anything about me to him, I hope?"
43134You do n''t know where Miss Ford is at present?"
43134You will believe that I loved you almost from the first, though I could not all at once make up my mind to marrying on small means?
43134You will let me know what you hear?"
43134You''d never guess what I''ve gone and done-- at least, Maddie,_ can_ you guess?"
43134You''ve not hurt yourself-- or anything?
43134and a coat of grey, too, some kind of velvet, I think, trimmed with dark fur?"
43134and my dream to end thus?
43134oh, do me a good turn, will you?
43134she exclaimed,"how did you get on with Despard?
43134when?
44123And are you truly sorry, Gracie?
44123And we''ll ask mamma and Aunt Annie, wo n''t we, Maggie?
44123And what color besides is he?
44123And you have said all this to Miss Ashton, perhaps?
44123Are not Maggie and Bessie to try with us too?
44123Are you going to beg her pardon?
44123Are you mad with me?
44123Are you not going to let me come out, then, mamma?
44123Better than any one else?
44123Black or white?
44123But ca n''t people like children and be glad they are going to have a nice time, even if they do n''t have any in their own homes?
44123But tell us, Fanny,said Lily Norris,"why do n''t you like her so very much?"
44123But what then?
44123But,said Dora,"if people give you money, why do n''t you take that to buy your materials?"
44123Ca n''t your mamma? 44123 Can I ask Gracie once again?"
44123Can he talk?
44123Can you not tell me what it is? 44123 Did Hattie bring you any message from Miss Ashton?"
44123Did n''t you like him?
44123Did she say so?
44123Did you find you had undertaken too much, Maggie, my dear?
44123Do n''t I know history better than any of you?
44123Do n''t I know what Fanny said to me? 44123 Do n''t that make you mad?"
44123Do n''t you think it was so very wicked in me then?
44123Do n''t you try to cut off little girls''hair?
44123Do you mean He would want you to tell it?
44123Does he eat hay?
44123Does he have four feets?
44123Does he live in the stable?
44123Does something provoke you or trouble you, Maggie, dear?
44123Fanny did not act as if she thought we''d like her cousin Hattie very much, did she?
44123For what?
44123Gracie and Bessie,she said,"are you here?
44123Gracie, dear,she said, coming closer to her little friend and putting her arms about her neck,"something does trouble you, does n''t it?
44123Gracie,said her mother,"can you remember exactly what you said about Maggie?"
44123Has she finished her education, and is she never going to school any more?
44123Hattie,said Gracie, drawing her"intimate friend"into a corner during recess,"did you tell Maggie Bradford what I said about her being Queen twice?"
44123Hattie,said Nellie suddenly, fixing her eyes searchingly on the little girl she addressed,"what put that idea of the fair into your head?"
44123Have n''t you to pay your missionary money to our box yet?
44123Have you seen her mat?
44123Have you told a story?
44123He is a nice, pleasant gentleman, is he not?
44123How are you, Polly?
44123How is Miss Ashton unjust?
44123How long is she going to keep you up here?
44123How many of you,continued the old lady,"are able to do worsted work nicely?"
44123How sober you look, Maggie; what are you thinking about?
44123I did n''t,pouted Hattie again;"and we did talk about it together, did n''t we, Maggie?"
44123I will, mamma,said Gracie;"but-- but-- I suppose Nellie and the other children must be told?"
44123I?
44123In this city?
44123Is he blat or white?
44123Is he good or bad?
44123Is n''t she lovely? 44123 Is she alive now?"
44123Is she nice?
44123Is that your Jessie?
44123Is there any thing especially wrong just now, Gracie?
44123Is your mother going to make you something for the fair?
44123Maggie again?
44123Maggie is used to it, and she makes the prettiest queen, so we''d rather have her; would n''t we, girls?
44123Maggie,said Belle,"you do n''t seem very interested; why do n''t you talk about the fair and give us new ideas, as you''most always do?"
44123Male or female?
44123Male or female?
44123Mamma,said Gracie, in a tone of some offence,"you''d never think that Hattie could make_ me_ learn to tell stories, do you?
44123Miss Ashton, do you think you could let us do it?
44123Old or young?
44123Polly, where is the naughty child?
44123Shall you ever be able to forgive me, mamma?
44123That was good of her,said Gracie;"did she get all the money she wanted for him?"
44123Then you think Gracie is conceited and thinks a great deal of herself, do you?
44123Was everybody saying ugly things about me to- day, and talking as if I was as wicked as a murderer?
44123Was she good or bad, Maggie?
44123Was the little boy frightened?
44123Well,said Dora,"we''ll speak to Mrs. Howard about it, and see what she says: wo n''t we, Gracie?"
44123What did Fanny say?
44123What does Polly want?
44123What is it? 44123 What is it?
44123What is it?
44123What is it?
44123What is the matter, Belle?
44123What is this, my little girls; what is the trouble?
44123What of that? 44123 What shall I do?
44123What shall we play now?
44123What things?
44123What was she celebrated for?
44123What was that?
44123What will she do, I wonder,she said to herself;"will she tell mamma?
44123What would you do if you had, Bessie?
44123What would you do, Bessie?
44123What_ have_ I done?
44123What_ shall_ I do, Bessie?
44123Where could we have it?
44123Where did she live?
44123Where does he live?
44123Where''s that ink- spot? 44123 Where''s your master, Polly?"
44123Who do you love, Polly?
44123Who do you think_ is_ the best child in all the school?
44123Who then?
44123Who''s that gentleman, Lily?
44123Who?
44123Why did ye all run that way? 44123 Why did you not stop for me this morning?"
44123Why do n''t we make some one else May Queen this year?
44123Why is she going away?
44123Why is she going?
44123Why, do n''t you see?
44123Why?
44123Would n''t it be too cold to have the fair on the piazza?
44123Would you do an old man a kindness, and give him his stick, little Miss?
44123Would you like to do one of the mats?
44123Would you like to take this also, Maggie, dear?
44123All agreed and Nellie asked,--"Was she celebrated for her beauty and her misfortunes?"
44123And Gracie; was she not just as bad, perhaps even worse?
44123And the question arose and was eagerly discussed, who was to be the munificent purchaser?
44123Bound for a frolic?
44123But could she with this uncertainty of how much or how little mamma knew?
44123But where was Bessie?
44123Can we call her to you?"
44123Could n''t ye stop a minute to help an old man?"
44123Could n''t you tell me what it is, and let me see if I could comfort you?
44123Did n''t Bessie come?"
44123Did n''t I give you a fright, though?"
44123Did n''t I play you two geese a nice trick, though?
44123Did n''t he try to take your hair?
44123Did you ever see such a doll?"
44123Did you take me for_ that_ fellow?
44123Do n''t you remember, Gracie, that time you lost your prize composition and we found it in the drawer of the hall- table?"
44123Do n''t you think we could arrange it so, Gracie?
44123Do you know any reason why she should have done so?"
44123Gracie started, partly in astonishment, partly in dismay; for what must she do now?
44123Gracie, did Miss Ashton send word to your mother and ask her to punish you?"
44123Has Gracie been saying any thing unkind to you?"
44123How could she lower herself so in the eyes of her schoolmates?
44123How dare you do it?"
44123How do you know what Fanny said to me?"
44123How is that?"
44123Howard?"
44123Indeed, how should she?
44123Let''s see; Gracie has only two more rows done than Nellie; no, Nellie has two more done than Gracie-- oh!--why-- this is Gracie''s, is n''t it?
44123Maggie, will you have one?"
44123Mamma would not have allowed her to see Hattie, she knew, if she had been at home; and must she send her away?
44123Mrs. Howard thought it probable they would have"a rush"of customers, and who should know better than she?
44123My little lady, they have him fast in jail, as he deserves; but how did you ever think I would do a thing like that?"
44123Now this was seemingly a most innocent conversation; was it not?
44123Oh, Hattie, did you take it out?
44123She felt as if she could not bear this any longer, as if she must tell, must confess what she had done; and yet-- how?
44123Then Belle turned, and exclaimed,--"Where''s Bessie?
44123Then tiny feet pattered along the hall, and little May''s voice sounded through her closed door,--"Am oo dood now, Dacie?
44123This was seconded by Lily''s voice calling from without,"Why do n''t you make haste?
44123Was it possible?
44123Was the old man really in trouble, and unable to reach his stick?
44123Was there really such a difference between her work and Nellie''s that it was so easily detected?
44123Was this the character her self- love was earning for her?
44123We''m doin out, Dacie; am oo most dood?
44123What did you say to Miss Ashton?"
44123What has happened?
44123What is it?"
44123What was his name?"
44123What will mamma say, and papa too?"
44123What would mamma say, what would all say if they only knew?
44123Where''s Bessie?"
44123Where''s my Bessie?"
44123Who was it, I say?"
44123Who''ll go out?"
44123Will you not come down and have some supper, Gracie?"
44123Would Hattie have done as much for her or for any one else?
44123Would n''t you feel awfully, Bessie, if you had done it?"
44123Would n''t you, Maggie?"
44123You have not let any one help you with it, have you?"
44123_ A GUILTY CONSCIENCE._ If Gracie had been an unhappy and miserable child before, what was she now with all this load upon her conscience?
44123_ JESSIE AND HER GRANDFATHER._ Where was Bessie?
44123answered the old man surprised;"and why would I do that?
44123asked Bessie, while at the same moment Dora said,--"Why do n''t you find some work and earn money that way?"
44123can we go and see him?"
44123could she really hope that the note had not been one of complaint of her conduct?
44123did n''t I take you in?
44123exclaimed Lily, indignation taking the place of her alarm,"were you tricking us?
44123said Gracie,"how did you come up here?
44123said Lily,"what do you talk to that proudy about it for?
44123she asked, coming up the stairs to them; then, seeing Belle''s still distressed and tear- stained face she inquired,"Belle, darling, what is wrong?"
44123she thought, or was this only a trap to catch her, and deprive her of her curls?
44123what is the matter?"
44123what shall I do?
44123what shall I do?
44123who, the fortunate possessor?
31252''What grieves you, boy?'' 31252 A fact, also, that his thoughts are so wrapped up in the moccasins that he has none left for his prayers?"
31252A fact, too, that he had no thanks in his heart for the beautiful moccasins, which his kindest of fathers gave him one night last week?
31252A particular friend of yours sent you a pair of red moccasins one night last week-- did your father deliver them to you?
31252All right?
31252And did he beg you to get him a pair while you were gone to the land of Pocahontas?
31252And did you ask permission of your father or mother, sir?
31252And did you obtain their permission?
31252And for why?
31252And how long shall I have to wait for the day?
31252And is your name Ben Logan?
31252And that little girl there, at the foot of my bed, is her name Bertha?
31252And the fat, young bear we brought you the day before yesterday?
31252And the fat, young buck we brought you the day before that?
31252And these two pretty people here, are they my father and mother, really, now?
31252And this place, where we all are, is it really grandpap''s house, and no mistake?
31252And wear your red moccasins?
31252And what can Jervis Whitney do for Nick of the Woods?
31252And what did you tell her? 31252 And what did your mam say to you, as you were climbing the fence?"
31252And who said it was n''t?
31252And who would carry your feet?
31252And why do you wish to go to grandpap''s house?
31252And would n''t you like for me to go and see how they are?
31252And you wo n''t kick up, and rear up and cut capers, like a horse?
31252And you wo n''t scratch me with your long, sharp claws?
31252And you wo n''t, like the bull and the cat and the wolf, go a- jumping over there, at that steep place in the hill?
31252Are we not beautiful things for the feet, Sprigg? 31252 But Sprigg, have you so soon forgotten what pap was telling us last night of his adventures between here and our old home?
31252But come, now, Nick; you ca n''t stand there and tell me that Sprigg is as bad a boy as Jack Bean- Stalk?
31252But may we not postpone the trial for a season, till he be stronger to endure it?
31252But, Sprigg, why not the boots, which I have been promising you for a year or more? 31252 But, bethink you, how much it lacks of being wholly his own fault?
31252But, while we shall be doing so much to please the whim of your son Manitou- Echo, what shall we be doing to please or benefit my son Sprigg?
31252But, who are these?
31252Ca n''t you give your poor pap some little sign of welcome first?
31252Can you ride a bear?
31252Did any one see you as you were taking your departure?
31252Did he pray?
31252Did he pray?
31252Did he pray?
31252Did he swear?
31252Did he swear?
31252Did he swear?
31252Did you have them on when you left home?
31252Ding- dong bell, when the fools are all dead, Then we will have plenty of butter and bread, wo n''t we, Pow- wow?
31252Do like the bull and the cat and the wolf? 31252 Do you not see how it hurts the poor boy to be laughed at?
31252Funny enough to make a dog laugh, is n''t it, Pow- wow?
31252Has Friar''s lantern lighted the hypocrite''s feet to the quicksands?
31252Has Jack- o''-Lantern lighted the bad boy''s feet to the frog- pond?
31252Has he not teased you much of late for a pair of red moccasins?
31252Have you worn them to- day?
31252Have you worn them yet?
31252How came I here?
31252I say, what''s wrong about my moonshine? 31252 I was longing to ask if-- what''s his name?"
31252Is that an English name, or Indian name?
31252Is that terrible ordeal his only chance?
31252Kick up, and rear up and cut capers, like a horse? 31252 My name is Sprigg, then, sure enough?"
31252Now, what did I tell you? 31252 Pow- wow, is it really you, old pard, and no mistake?
31252Some folks ought to be told what fools they are, ought n''t they, Pow- wow?
31252Some folks think they are monstrous smart, do n''t they, Pow- wow?
31252Sprigg,said Elster, in a grieved and reproachful voice,"are all your thanks for the dog?
31252Then he must have swum?
31252Then why do n''t you, and prove it?
31252Well, and how is my son Sprigg to run this race with your son Manitou- Echo?
31252Well, then, if not to church, to grandmam''s quilting?
31252Were n''t you terribly frightened, Ben?
31252What particular place did you have in your mind, as your journey''s end, when you set out from home?
31252Where am I?
31252Whither, dear Elster?
31252Who calls Jervis Whitney?
31252Who plies her loom, with shuttle and beam, and sings at her work with so blithe a heart? 31252 Who sits here at this late hour on Manitou hill, hiding himself from my moonshine?
31252Who, I say?
31252Will he be less of a thief for the pit- fall?
31252Will he be the less of a rogue for the frog- pond?
31252Will he be the less of a scamp for the quicksands?
31252Will- o''-the- Wisp, have you lighted the robber''s feet to the pit- fall?
31252You could bark tip a tree and do better than that, could n''t you, Pow- wow?
31252You wo n''t bite me with your long, sharp teeth, will you?
31252A gaunt- ribbed wolf, with teeth so long and sharp?
31252A shaggy- coated bear, with claws so long and sharp?
31252And are we all alive and here at grandpap''s house, and no dreaming about it?
31252And now, Sprigg, do n''t you see that with these red moccasins on your feet you are as swift as a young wild goose, if not swifter?
31252And the bright sun?
31252And who was little Bertha?
31252And why did he fumble so long at the moccasin latches?
31252And why?
31252And why?
31252And why?
31252And why?
31252And why?
31252And, Sprigg, would you like to be called a monkey?
31252And, after all, why deplore it?
31252But before we proceed any further, you may as well tell me how you like the looks of the bull and the cat and the wolf-- as well as do you mine?"
31252But granting it to be as we say, how does the circumstance interest Nick of the Woods?"
31252But his pursuers, who and where are they?
31252But is n''t he fine?
31252But now they were on, why was the boy not up and away?
31252But where is the fence, and the trees-- where are they?
31252But why so trembled his hands?
31252But wo n''t he, though?
31252But, Jervis Whitney-- now, where did I ever hear that name?
31252CHAPTER V. Who Gave Sprigg The Red Moccasins?
31252Can not?
31252Can you tell us that?"
31252Could it be possible that he had climbed it without conscious effort?
31252Did the eye see that?
31252Does he not mourn to think of the pain and distress which, by his most undutiful conduct, he is causing his dear father and his dear, dear mother?"
31252Fresh and spry?
31252Have you none for pap?
31252He Has Them-- What Shall He Do With Them?
31252His name''s Sprigg, is it?
31252How could such shadows be cast?
31252How is this case to be treated?"
31252If a lock of hair is good for keeping one''s mind on a friend, why not as good for keeping his body there, too?"
31252Is not turkey- cock just as proud of his homely feathers as peacock of his magnificent plumes?
31252May not these plead for him?"
31252Meg,"Not to leave out his secret designs on young Ben Logan and little Bertha Bryant?
31252Not to leave out those secret designs on-- what did Manitou- Echo call them-- the boy and the girl?"
31252Not yet?
31252Now, after a somewhat longer pause than before, he put the startling question:"Ben, did you ever see Nick of the Woods?"
31252Now, how is this to be brought about?
31252Now, sir, as you are getting a little glib, will you go still further and tell us how old you are?"
31252Now, sir, out with it-- straight as an arrow, plump as a bullet-- what did you tell your mother, as you were climbing the fence?"
31252Now, sir, what''s your name?"
31252Pow- wow, did Nick of the Woods ever give you a pair of red moccasins?
31252Pow- wow, were you ever chased by the Manitous?
31252Tell us-- me and Pow- wow-- how you liked the buffalo we brought home for you yesterday?"
31252That is the way, I think; or why should they keep on calling me for him?
31252The bear paused for a moment; then, in a voice quite soft and gentle for him, said:"But you mourn in your heart for having done this thing?"
31252Then, what can catch you?
31252Was that yesterday, or the moment gone but now?
31252Well, suppose if a civilized white boy should happen to have a pair of red moccasins, what could he do with them?"
31252What can hurt you?
31252What could it have been?
31252What did you tell your mother?"
31252What do you see in the coals?"
31252What else could we do?
31252What found he there?
31252What is it, my dove?"
31252What is that?
31252What manner of disappearance might this be?
31252What manner of disappearance might this be?
31252What might this mean?
31252What think you Sprigg saw there, in the wild and lonesome woods?
31252What was it he saw?
31252What''s to hinder?
31252What''s wrong about my moonshine?"
31252What, though, does this signify to us Manitous?
31252Where were the red moccasins?
31252Where''s the use of a feller''s always waiting?"
31252Who could have thought it?
31252Who roams the forest, with dog and gun, and follows the chase with heart so bold?
31252Who said our Sprigg was not a brave boy?
31252Who said our Sprigg was not a brave boy?
31252Who said our Sprigg was not a brave boy?
31252Who said our Sprigg was not a brave boy?
31252Who said we could n''t take Sprigg to grandpap''s house?
31252Who said we could n''t take Sprigg to pretty little Bertha''s house?
31252Who said we could n''t take Sprigg to young Ben Logan''s house?
31252Who, with pretty, young eyes overflowing with soft, sweet tears, stood gazing at Sprigg and his mother, where they lay side by side together?
31252Whose fault?
31252Why did you not cast off the terrible moccasins then and there?
31252Why did you not get him the boots you have been promising him?
31252Why trembled he so all over?
31252Why, Nick, he is as bad as Robinson Crusoe, is he not?"
31252Will he be warned?
31252Will they do so still?
31252Will you please enlighten me, sir, with a few more gleams of your moonshine?"
31252Yet what assurance had he that these things also were not dreams?
31252You may not know every crook and turn of it as well as you do of the other, that is true; but we do, so what''s the difference?
31252and is''Sir''all a boy has to say for himself, who dodged my moonshine?
31252frightened, my brave old fellow?
31252growled the bear; and then in a mocking tone added:"Oh, he is trying to dodge me, is he?
31252the moccasins!--where are my red moccasins?"
31252who would have thought it?
31252wo n''t you get me a pair of red moccasins while you are gone, please?"
43147''Oo better now?
43147And can you tell me-- but of course you know-- you are one of the young ladies who live here, eh?
43147And may I take out my little ummabella( umbrella), case it might wain?
43147And shall I have a railed- in division and a panel of my own?
43147And she is very ill."What of?
43147And who is Nan, my dear?
43147And who is going there?
43147And you believe in me?
43147And you know nothing about it?
43147And you love your own poor old nurse, too?
43147And your love, too?
43147And, perhaps,continued her governess,"in this quiet and beautiful and sacred place, my dear pupil has also prayed?"
43147Are you our principal teacher, then?
43147But how is she, sir-- how is she?
43147But where is the use of regretting what is done?
43147But why have you sent for_ me_?
43147But, please, sir, how is she? 43147 By the way, Dora, dear, how goes the river now?-- has it lost itself in the arms of mother ocean yet?"
43147Can you tell me the best way to get from here to the long acre field?
43147Cross the road, and come to the stile, mother,said the energetic Peggy--"oh, there she be a- creeping along-- oh, ai n''t she a take- in?"
43147Danger? 43147 Dere,"she said triumphantly,"will dat do?"
43147Do n''t you think, Mrs Willis,said Cecil,"that Annie made rather a brave confession this morning?"
43147Do you know where Miss Nan is, Alice? 43147 Do you mind repeating to me exactly what you said to your governess?"
43147Do you say this because you have faith?
43147Do you see this baize door, dear?
43147Eh, dear-- and is that you, my pretty Missy?
43147Eh, my dear?
43147Eh?--what?
43147Had not you better get dressed?
43147Have I ever seen you before, my dear?
43147Have you been praying about it, Cecil?
43147Hester,he said,"you here?
43147How could you?
43147I ask you frankly, Cecil,replied Mrs Willis,"can perfect love exist without perfect confidence?
43147I do n''t know what loneliness means now, so how can I describe it?
43147I do think Miss Danesbury cuts the bread and butter too thick-- don''t you, Annie? 43147 I may go now, I suppose, Hester?
43147I-- eh?--what?
43147I? 43147 If-- if she dies-- may I see her first?"
43147Is Annie one of the maids?
43147Is it about your lessons?
43147Is it meant for a parody?
43147Is n''t it pretty? 43147 Is that really you?"
43147Is that you, father? 43147 Is this Lavender House, little girl?"
43147Left them?
43147Let me go,said Annie a little contemptuously;"you do n''t suppose I am afraid?"
43147May I read your essay, please, Dora?
43147My dear,said Miss Jane, turning to her sister,"did you notice the extraordinary likeness that little gipsy girl bore to Annie Forest?"
43147My dear-- what can I say?
43147My little darling is all right, is she not?
43147My sister Agnes has got some delicious queen- cakes in her basket-- will you eat one?
43147Never was there so much written and printed,she was often heard to say;"but can anyone show me a book with thoughts in it?
43147No one to- night, then?
43147Now, is the coast clear? 43147 Of course, dear; need you ask?"
43147Oh, Annie, oh, love, suppose he seizes on you, and knocks you down-- oh, dare you venture?
43147Oh, Betty, are you ill?
43147Oh, I am so sorry?
43147Oh, Nan,she said at last piteously,"have you not got your own Annie?
43147Oh, please, may I sit near you?
43147Oh, please,said Hester suddenly,"may Nan come with me, Miss Good?
43147Oh, so you are going to take that horrid girl''s part now? 43147 Oh, then she is worse?"
43147Oh, wo n''t they tell themselves?
43147Perhaps,she said at last in a slightly timid tone,"you have not seen her since this morning?"
43147Please may I go to little Nan?
43147Please, Mother Rachel, what are you doing here?
43147Save whom?
43147She''s not in danger?
43147Sick, is she?
43147So you are my new room- mate?
43147Suppose I never see her again?
43147Susan and I have got something to say, and we must say it here, now at once?
43147Thank you-- being sorry for one does not do a great deal of good, does it?
43147The cake- woman?
43147This narrative of Hester Thornton''s is, of course, quite true, Miss Drummond?
43147We are hungry, Tiger, and we want something to eat, and you''d like a bone, would n''t you?
43147We''ll light a fire in the wood, Nan, and hang a kettle over it, and make tea-- such good tea; wo n''t it be nice?
43147Well, my dear child,said the head- mistress in her kindest voice,"where are you running to?
43147What did you do with this basket?
43147What do you mean, Alice? 43147 What do you say, Susy?"
43147What for?
43147What have I escaped from?
43147What have you come into my room for? 43147 What is it, Hester?"
43147What is it, Miss Danesbury?
43147What is that, my child?
43147What is the matter, Susan?
43147What is the matter? 43147 What matter?"
43147What subject did you select, dear?
43147What were you going to say? 43147 What''s Coventry?"
43147What?
43147What?
43147What_ are_ you doing on the floor, Susan?
43147What_ are_ you doing?
43147What_ is_ to be done? 43147 When did you discover this?"
43147Where are they?
43147Where dat pitty toy?
43147Where was your picnic?
43147Where''oo s''oes?
43147Who is she, dear?
43147Who will be exposed?
43147Why did she ever make a caricature of one who has been as a mother to her? 43147 Why did you keep it in your desk-- were you reading it during preparation?"
43147Why do you call me that?
43147Why do you say that?
43147Why do you try for it, Dora?
43147Why ky?
43147Why should everyone throw mud at a girl when she is down? 43147 Why should we try to conceal the thing?"
43147Why should you put yourself out just for a sick lass? 43147 Why, Dora, what is the matter?"
43147Why, Susy, where have you been?
43147Will you believe me?
43147Will you now repeat in the presence of the school, and in a loud enough voice to be heard by all here, exactly what was done?
43147Will you please come and see something in my desk, Miss Good?
43147Will you please to get into your own?
43147Yes, and she''s too clever by half; eh, poor old Muddy Stream?
43147Yes, you little treasure, and you''ll try to love me, wo n''t you?
43147You are awake, miss?
43147You are going to Annie?
43147You are her father?
43147You are really sorry for me?
43147You concealed your knowledge, did n''t you? 43147 You deliberately disobey me, Cecil?"
43147You do hate them, do n''t you?
43147You do n''t mean it, surely?
43147You do n''t mind the fact that Mrs Willis and all your school- fellows must know of this, and must-- must judge you accordingly?
43147You have seen her mother,said Mrs Willis--"Do you remember your favourite pupil, Helen Anstey, of long ago?"
43147You kept it to yourself?
43147You know my pet copy of Mrs Browning''s poems, do n''t you, Annie?
43147You know nothing about it do you, Annie?
43147You shall have the toy for your very own, Nan, if you will do something for me?
43147You will tell exactly what Mrs Willis said, darling heroine?
43147You will, perhaps, prefer a cake, my dear?
43147You''re one of the gipsies, my dear?
43147Your desk has also been tampered with, you say?
43147` This lock has not been picked,''Mrs Willis said,` and what is that little piece of white paper sticking out of the private drawer?'' 43147 ` What am I to believe now, Annie?''
43147` You have got your keys now?'' 43147 Above all things, if_ she_ did not do it, who did?
43147After all, why should she tell on us?
43147Ah, Susy, here''s a place for you-- oh, what_ is_ the matter with Phyllis?
43147Am I not right, my dear?"
43147And are you her child, little one?"
43147And do I indulge in flourishes?
43147And pray what affair is this of yours?
43147Annie, ca n''t you guess what I am going to say?"
43147Are you going into a fit of hysterics?
43147Are you going to be long away from her, love?"
43147Are you not glad she is coming?"
43147At the farther end Nan suddenly tightened her clasp, drew herself up, ceased to laugh, and said with some fright in her voice--"Who dat?"
43147At what time?"
43147But I suppose I must not ask; you are, of course, one of the busy and secret conclave in the South Parlour?"
43147But what do you think Mrs Willis does, Hester?
43147But what is to become of the basket?"
43147But, as her eyes rested on the first lines, she turned to her companion, and said--"Did you not tell me that your essay was called` The River''?"
43147Can anyone show me, unless as a rare exception, a book which will live?
43147Can you get your say over in that time?"
43147Can you tell me anything about it?"
43147Cecil, dear, can you do anything about fetching a waggonette round to the stile at the entrance of the wood?
43147Could she-- could she bear to look at Annie''s dying face?
43147Could the gypsy- mother have already betrayed them all?
43147Did you not hear me say that my lesson to- day was in outline?
43147Did you see the little thing now, how she flew to her?
43147Do I understand, Miss Russell, that` Jane Eyre''is yours?"
43147Do n''t you remember how you made me cry over that picture of little Alice, the over- worked factory girl?
43147Do you know anything of the handwriting?"
43147Do you mind putting my muddy boots outside the door, and folding up my stockings?
43147Do you mind throwing a little cold water over my face and head?
43147Do you not know, my dear Cecil, that you are doing the falsest, cruellest thing by dear Annie in trying to hide her sin from me?
43147Do you understand me?"
43147Do_ you_ suspect me, Mrs Willis?"
43147Had I ever left my desk unlocked?
43147Had I ever parted with my keys?
43147Has Annie come back?"
43147Has any other girl suffered injury-- has any other girl''s desk been touched?"
43147Has she told you, Cecil darling, what I did in her behalf?
43147Have you anything in particular to say to me?"
43147Have you got a pair of scissors?"
43147Have you got any news of little Nan?
43147Hester, there has been plenty of favouritism in this school, but do you suppose I shall allow such a thing as this to pass over unsearched into?
43147Hester, why do n''t you speak-- why do you stare at me like this?"
43147How I ventured beyond the sacred precincts of the baize door and hid inside the porter''s room?
43147How can I put myself in your friend Annie''s place?
43147How could she sleep in those hot, common, close houses?
43147How is it you are not with the rest of them, child?"
43147How long have you known all this about me, pray?"
43147How many of the girls in Lavender House are going to tell me a lie this morning?"
43147How old are you?"
43147How should she occupy herself?
43147How soon would Hester be summoned?
43147I call it prison, but father says I am going to school-- you ca n''t wonder that I am crying, can you?
43147I gave you a shaded piece to copy in outline-- did you not understand?"
43147I hope my department will be close to yours, Miss?"
43147I know you do n''t believe me, Cecil; but do you think I would really do anything so mean about one whom I love?
43147I need not make her my friend, need I?"
43147I wonder if chocolate- creams would sweeten that little temper?"
43147IS SHE STILL GUILTY?
43147If I can convince you that you are doing wrong in concealing what you know from me, will you act as I wish in the matter?"
43147If Mr Everard and Mrs Willis says she is innocent, is not that enough?
43147If she made one caricature, could she not make another?
43147If you suspect Annie Forest, why should not I?
43147Is anything wrong there, dear?"
43147Is n''t Annie sweet with children?"
43147Is not it just like the darlingest little drawing- room?
43147Is not that the tea- gong?
43147Is that you, Hester Thornton?
43147Is that you, Mary?"
43147May I go into the garden, Mrs Willis?"
43147Miss Conway, you are at the head of the school, will you set the example?"
43147Miss Good, will you ask Michael to step for a moment into the school- room?"
43147Miss Good, will you take Miss Temple to the chapel?
43147Miss Russell drew back her curtain, and asked very sharply,"Who is there?"
43147Mrs Willis seems so ladylike herself, but-- Oh, I beg your pardon, what''s the matter?"
43147Nan, look me in the face-- here, sit steady on my knee; you lose me, do n''t you Nan?"
43147Now the puzzle is, who is to take care of the rest of the little children?
43147Now then, what next?
43147Now, do I look like a real, real gipsy?"
43147Now, my dear, come along-- why, surely you are not frightened?"
43147Now, tell me, have you made any acquaintances as yet among the girls?"
43147Now, tell me, love, what had you for breakfast yesterday?"
43147Now, will you go to your room?
43147Oakley is some miles from here?"
43147Of course we are devoured with curiosity to know what it means; are n''t we, Flo?"
43147Oh, Susy, wo n''t you go and tell Mrs Willis the truth?"
43147Oh, do be tender to her, and-- forgive me-- may I go away now?"
43147Oh, my child, I can not repay her; but will you try?"
43147One by one the girls of the head class stepped up to their teacher, and of each one she asked the same question--"Are you guilty?"
43147Pardonnez- moi, you know not the French?
43147Phyllis, how often she has talked to us about gipsies, and what a lot she knows about them?"
43147Shall we be chums for this evening?"
43147She was supposed to be lying down in a darkened room, she was supposed to be very ill-- what was she doing here?
43147She was turning away when Hester compelled herself to remark--"Is there any message with the flowers?"
43147She-- she-- she is not in danger?"
43147Should she trust to a charm she knew she possessed, and venture into the encampment?
43147So I''m back at this horrid, detestable school again?"
43147Suppose Mother Rachel proved unfaithful, notwithstanding the sixpences?
43147Surely Captain Forest, who had gone into the sick- room with Nan in his arms, would quickly return?
43147Surely Mr Everard would come for her in a moment?
43147Was Annie, indeed, all bad?
43147Was it possible that the old woman was ill?
43147What about the book, Cecil?"
43147What ailed her?
43147What cottage did you say this Moses lived in?"
43147What could she be doing here?
43147What have we here?
43147What is in this parcel?
43147What is it, Cecil?
43147What more could I do then?"
43147What should she do?
43147What''s the basket put hiding here for, and who does it belong to?"
43147Where should she go?
43147Where_ is_ my little girl?"
43147Which would conquer?
43147Who wants sweeties from the fairy queen?"
43147Why from the very first had she turned from her and misjudged her, and misrepresented her?
43147Why had she so deceived Annie?
43147Why should I trouble myself to injure her?
43147Why should we make Mrs Willis a present?"
43147Why wo n''t you be brave?
43147Why, Hester, are you going to faint?"
43147Why, my dear Cecil, what is the matter?
43147Will Nan give her own Hetty one kiss?"
43147Will any one join me?"
43147Will you come indoors, and have tea with me in my drawing- room, Hester?"
43147Will you come to the chapel now?
43147Will you give me your clothes, if I give you mine?
43147Will you have them?
43147Will you please just stand up in your place in class and answer me without a moment''s hesitation?"
43147Wo n''t you tell me all about it, Cecil?"
43147Would you like to come with me to- night?
43147Yes, Miss Danesbury-- what is it?"
43147You agree with me, do n''t you, Hester?
43147You are not quite determined to make a fool of me, are you?"
43147You are sure that the caricature you drew is not to be found in your desk?''
43147You believe in her at last, do n''t you?"
43147You could not, could you, Hester?
43147You do not know, perhaps, that I am Nan''s godmother?"
43147You do suspect her, do you not, Cecil?"
43147You have never seen an attempt at this kind of drawing amongst your school- fellows, or amongst any of the teachers?''
43147You know I_ always_ loop them; and do I make a capital B in this fashion?
43147You know that I am the only girl in the school who can draw caricatures, but did you suppose that I would show_ her_ dishonour?
43147You know these rules, Miss Russell?"
43147You surely know nothing about this?"
43147You will think of me, and love me too; wo n''t you, Nan?"
43147You''ll be with your own Hetty all day long-- your own Hetty; wo n''t you be glad?"
43147You''re sure that it was not buttered scones?
43147Your doubts have been removed, Cecil; you can now speak fully to me; can you not, dear?"
43147are you calling me?"
43147can you ever forget our happy days at school?"
43147how could she get home?
43147is that you?"
43147must you speak in the middle of the night?"
43147replied the girl;"is Nan very bad?"
43147said Mrs Willis, in a tone half of pain, half of relief,"have you come to your senses at last?"
43147said the gypsy;"do you think I''d work you any harm-- you, and the seven other dear little ladies?
43147second, could she throw any light on the subject?
43147she exclaimed;"how am I to live without ever going home-- how am I to endure life without seeing my little Nan?"
43147she said, looking up with imploring eyes:"oh, surely not your love as well?"
43147she said, raising her round face to Annie''s;"some one did buy dat toy, and it''s vedy pitty, and me wants it-- where''s dat toy?"
43147she said--"What''s your name?"
43147should she?
43147what for?
43147what is it, Cecil, darling?"
43147what is the matter?"
43147where was she?
43147why should I even take the pains to parody her words and copy her handwriting?
43147you were very firm, were n''t you?
43147young lady?"
