39392And wine, monsieur?
39392Are its palaces and pleasures Fantasies that fade? 39392 Are you all right, mister, now?"
39392But if you had to die,he insisted,"how would you prefer to go?"
39392Ca n''t ye be aisy out of respect for the dead?
39392How long have you been playing?
39392I''m an ugly blighter, are n''t I?
39392Is n''t it a shame?
39392Only sixteen shillings? 39392 Say_ something_, ca n''t you?"
39392Shall I?
39392Well?
39392Well?
39392Well?
39392Well?
39392Wh- what makes you all lau- lau- laugh so?
39392What are you doing here?
39392What do you pay?
39392What''s happened Harry?
39392What''s it like?
39392What,I asked him,"do you mean by that?"
39392Where''s the book?
39392Who are those for?
39392Who are you?
39392You did very well,they told me afterwards,"did n''t you hear the laughs?"
39392''Here, master,''she said,''who''s''e?''
39392''Is it?''
39392And the glory of its treasures Shadows of a shade?"
39392But where is the way of escape?
39392By Shelford Walsh[ Harrogate?]
39392Can it be improved in keeping with the spirit of genuine artistry?
39392Could he, as a means of thwarting his relative, be allowed to marry?
39392Do you know what you are doing?
39392For every young artist who comes for the first time before the footlights, may I bespeak always the same kindly feeling?
39392Frederic, even on Mabel''s entreaties, can not save him, for is he not himself a pirate again?
39392Hildebrand retorts,"If you enlist all women in your cause-- how is this posterity to be provided?"
39392How well I remember those lines:-- Second Demon( sepulchral and sinister): Who calls on me in this unfriendly way?
39392Is its beauty but a bubble, Bound to break ere long?"
39392Long after this it was Mr. Carte''s custom, when making enquiries as to my wife, to say dryly,"And how''s your sister, Lytton?"
39392Not once, but many times, I have been asked"Why do n''t you write your reminiscences, Lytton?"
39392One of the Japanese nobles asks,"Who are you?"
39392Only the night before he died, while we were in our dressing- room, he surprised me with the question,"How would you like to die, Harry?"
39392Or between his studies of the engaging and more than candid_ Lord Chancellor_ in"Iolanthe"and that pretentious humbug_ Bunthorne_ in"Patience"?
39392Others declare,"Is n''t he a marvel for sixty- five?"

39392Shall I say I was anxious to return to them?
39392Should an utter stranger be allowed to pay her pretty compliments?
39392This little chorus contains two exquisite verses--"Is it but a world of trouble Sadness set to song?
39392Watered them?
39392Were they so little moved by the closing scene of the piece that they were going out in indifference or in disgust?
39392What about Gilbert?
39392What did I want to be?
39392What had happened?
39392What is the secret?
39392What shall I do?"
39392What was he to do?
39392What was to be done?
39392What was wrong?
39392When at the close of"Yeomen"_ Elsie_ is wedded to_ Fairfax_, does_ Jack Point_ die of a broken heart, or does he merely swoon away?
39392Which of the two will be last to go-- The Gondoliers or the latest show?"
39392You will remember that in"The Yeomen"poor_ Jack Point_ puts his riddle,"Why is a cook''s brainpan like an overwound clock?"
39392are n''t they?"
39392he whispered anxiously, his nose still to the floor,"What have I done?"
39392she returned,''and who''s''e?''
15385And if his voice should prove to be what is wanted,continued the music- master, though with delicate hesitancy,"would he be-- free?
15385And so you sell papers?
15385And so your grandmother is your music teacher?
15385And so your mother takes pupils?
15385And where do you live?
15385And you are willing to come?
15385And you take your music lessons in one half?
15385Are you putting on the dress_ I_ like?
15385Are you, indeed? 15385 But you will come?"
15385Do I love music? 15385 Do n''t you want me to bring you a daffodil to wear at your throat?"
15385Do you mind telling me your name?
15385Do you recognize it?
15385Do you think you are poor?
15385Has any one heard you sing?
15385Have you ever been in the cathedral?
15385If he would n''t have me, you''d never want to see me any more, would you?
15385In what direction did you say that battery was pointed?
15385Oh, you have a piano, have you?
15385On a piano?
15385Then why did he try to call himself James the Greater? 15385 Well, Mister, you see the statue of Washington and Lafayette?"
15385What do you say when not selling papers and when you are at home?
15385What is the number?
15385Will you come in?
15385Will you, then, send him to- morrow and let me try his voice?
15385You_ do_ wish to come?
15385You_ will_ come?
15385A mention of it-- the usual story-- was in the papers, but who of us reads such things in the papers?
15385A shy appealing look came into his eyes as he asked his next question-- a grave question indeed:"_ Mister, do you love music?_""Do I love music?"
15385A shy appealing look came into his eyes as he asked his next question-- a grave question indeed:"_ Mister, do you love music?_""Do I love music?"
15385And if he amounted to nothing, then what?
15385And now the whole secret came out:"Do you know how boys get into the cathedral choir school?"
15385Are n''t you nearly ready?"
15385But has there not been a change even within that short time?
15385By the bedside she suddenly rocked to and fro, and then she bent over and said with a smile in her tone:"_ Do you hear?
15385Did not the medieval portrait- painters portray in their sitters great moods as no painter portrays them now?
15385Do n''t you do that way?"
15385Do you find portraits of either men or women who radiate the overwhelming passions, the vital moods, of our galled and soaring nature?
15385Do you hear them?_"He made a motion with his lips to speak but they hurt him too much.
15385Do you think that is showing proper respect to an apostle?"
15385Do you understand why?
15385Does anybody teach you?"
15385Having thus disposed of some of the lad''s words, he addressed a pointed question to the rest:"But how did you happen to call me mister?
15385He did not know this; but she knew it, knew by his look and by his only comment:"You had a perfectly splendid time, did n''t you?"
15385His inquiry was quite breathless:"Do you want a paper, Mister?
15385How could they hold services in the cathedral-- the usual services?
15385How many painters of to- day can find great moods in the faces of their sitters?
15385Mister, were_ you_ ever poor?"
15385Now he felt sure of his comrade, and he put to him a more searching question:"Do_ you_ know anything about the cathedral?"
15385Otherwise, how can your best emotions have full play in your work; and unless your best emotions enter into your work, what will your work be worth?
15385She addressed the janitor with anxious courtesy:"Will you ask him to come up?"
15385The man broke it with a grave surprised inquiry:"How did you happen to think of the cathedral?"
15385The man''s next question was put in a more guarded tone:"Does your mother pose as a model?"
15385Truesdale?"
15385Was anything like this now to become his own experience?
15385What did it all mean?
15385What had befallen her?
15385What is your name, and what kind of family do you come from, Mister?"
15385What paper do you want?
15385What''s the matter with you?
15385Where are your hands?
15385Why do n''t you put your arms around me?"
15385Why had anything else been talked of that day?
15385Why had not all of them heard?
15385Why had she not come back?
15385Why had they not heard?
15385Why not?"
15385Why was it not crowded to the doors with the clergy of all faiths and the laymen of every land, lifting one outcry against such destruction?
15385Why were they not all massed around the hospital doors, tearful with their sympathies?
15385Why were they not there at his bedside?
15385Would they ever know?
15385You see it now, do n''t you?
15385You see that house in the middle of the block, the little old one between the two big ones?"
33358But,persisted the young American,"_ Why did he go to the back before he sang?_""Oh!"
33358Is there one among them, for instance, who can enunciate her own language faultlessly; that is, as the stage demands? 33358 Who on earth have you been listening to?"
33358Why must I go to the back first?
33358A voice?
33358Before our national elections I am asked,"Which one of the candidates do you believe will make the best President?"
33358Blind imitation is, of course, bad, but how is the student to progress unless he has had an opportunity to hear the best singers of the day?
33358But how good must that voice be?
33358By practicing breathing exercises?
33358COMMON SENSE IN TRAINING AND PRESERVING THE VOICE DAME NELLIE MELBA HOW CAN A GOOD VOICE BE DETECTED?
33358Can I digress long enough to say that I think that everybody should sing?
33358Can any one who knows anything about the art of singing fail to realize how absurd this is?
33358Could not a shoemaker or a blacksmith take a few lessons and become a great singer?
33358Did you ever hear of any one forming a party for the express purpose of listening to the crowing of a rooster?
33358Do you wonder that I guard them carefully?
33358Do you wonder that I lay stress upon good health?
33358Does this not make the point clear?
33358ERNESTINE SCHUMANN- HEINK THE ARTIST''S RESPONSIBILITY Would you have me give the secret of my success at the very outstart?
33358Even in many of his piano pieces, such as_ Warum?_,_ Träumerei_ or the famous_ Slumber Song_, the lyric character is evident.
33358FLORENCE EASTON What is the open door to opera in America?
33358GERALDINE FARRAR What must I do to become a prima donna?
33358He asked,"Is there anything else she can do?"
33358He used to say, after accompanying himself in the aria of Cherubino the Page, from the 1st act,"Is n''t that Spring?
33358How can a girl breathe when she has squeezed her lungs to one- half their normal size?
33358How could I help profiting by such excellent experiences?
33358How do American women begin their studies?
33358How does a bird learn to sing?
33358How does the animal learn to cry?
33358How does the lion learn to roar?
33358How is she to determine this?
33358How is the student to know when he is straining the voice?
33358I began to ponder, why were some of my records poor and others good?
33358IS THE ART OF SINGING DYING OUT?
33358If I could do it one time-- why could n''t I do it all the time?
33358If they do not understand, why sing words at all?
33358In a blare and confusion of noises, like bedlam broken loose, what chance has a child to develop good taste?
33358Is n''t that the joy of life?
33358Is n''t that very simple?
33358Is n''t that youth?
33358Is there an open door, and if not, how can one be made?
33358It is perfectly easy for me, a contralto, to sing C in alt but do you suppose I sing it in my daily exercises?
33358JULIA CLAUSSEN WHY SWEDEN PRODUCES SO MANY SINGERS The question,"Why does Sweden produce so many singers?"
33358Need I say more than that I practice deep breathing every day of my life?
33358Once while we were performing_ Rosenkavalier_ he came behind the scenes and said:"Will this awfully_ long_ opera never end?
33358Or do they believe that the singing teacher must also provide a musical and general education?
33358Or the donkey learn to bray?
33358The director was amazed and blustered:"Why?
33358The girl who wants to sing in opera must have one thought and one thought only--"what will contribute to my musical, histrionic and artistic success?"
33358Then he came in the room and said to me,"How much do you get here for teaching and playing?"
33358They approach their work with the question,"Will this go?"
33358WHAT MUST I GO THROUGH TO BECOME A PRIMA DONNA?
33358WHAT MUST THE SINGER HAVE?
33358WHAT WORK SHOULD THE GIRL UNDER EIGHTEEN DO?
33358WHEN TO BEGIN The eternal question,"At what age shall I commence to study singing?"
33358What about the nineteen- twentieths?
33358What chance has the student?
33358What could be simpler than this?
33358What difference does it make whether I buy Castile soap in a huge Broadway store or a little country store, if the soap is the same?
33358What difference does it make whether you ruin your stomach, liver or kidneys by too much alcohol or too much roast beef?
33358What has become of them?
33358What is the first consideration of the singer?
33358What is the result?
33358What is the stroke of the glottis?
33358What might these men have been had they not been under the benign influence of music?
33358What must the singer have?
33358What should the girl starting singing avoid?
33358What then is"good singing"as the Italians understand it?
33358When you hold your hand out freely before you what is it that keeps it from falling at your side?
33358Where is musicianship needed more than in the case of the singer?
33358Who may go through that door and what are the terms of admission?
33358Who needs a sounder mind than the artist?
33358Whoever hears of Marietta von Leclair in these days?
33358Why does not some enthusiastic American leader take up a campaign for more opera in America?
33358Why does this dearth exist?
33358Why not be patient?
33358Why not vocalize the melodies upon some vowel?
33358Why not wait a little while?
33358Why should she wait a whole year with silly tones when she knows that she can sing a great aria with only a little more difficulty?
33358Why?
33358Why?
33358Why?
33358With a good teacher to keep watch over the breathing and the quality,"what more can one have?"
33358Would it not be better to do away with the speculator at the door and pay say$ 10.00 for a seat that now costs$ 7.00?
33358exclaimed the excited Italian;"Why he go back?
15446Again: I can think out the character and make a mental picture of it for myself, but how shall I project it for others to see? 15446 And have you a final message to the young singers who are struggling and longing to sing some day as wonderfully as you do?"
15446And now, do you think I have answered your questions about tone production, breath control and the rest? 15446 And what are these requirements?"
15446And what must the girl possess, who wishes to make a success with her singing?
15446And who is your teacher?
15446And you will surely rest when the arduous season is over?
15446But when all these are mastered, what then? 15446 But who can tell?
15446Do I always feel the emotions I express when singing a rôle? 15446 Do I prefer to sing in opera or concert, you ask?
15446Have you a message which may be carried to the young singers?
15446How could I stay away from America for such a length of time? 15446 How do I work?
15446How do you preserve your voice and your repertoire?
15446I hardly meant to say that in any sense the art of bel canto was lost; how could it be? 15446 In what way may I be of service to you?"
15446Indeed not, will you forget me?
15446My favorite operas? 15446 Shall you make a singer of the little lady?"
15446Should you ever care to become a dramatic singer?
15446Then the breathing, Madame, what would you say of that?
15446Voice culture, voice mastery, what is it? 15446 What message have you, Madame, for the young singer, who desires to make a career?"
15446Will you give some idea of the means by which you accomplish such results?
15446Will you tell me how you learn a song?
15446Would I rather appear in opera, recital or oratorio? 15446 You of course speak several languages?"
15446''Do you really like the music of_ Marouf_?''
15446''What, the Broken Tenor?''
15446ARE AMERICAN VOCAL STUDENTS SUPERFICIAL?
15446All this may be of interest as a matter of research, but must one go into such minutiae in order to teach singing?
15446And even if one is accepted''for small parts,''what hope is there of rising, when some of the greatest artists of the world hold the leading rôles?
15446And was this Farrar who stood before me, in the flush of vigorous womanhood, and who welcomed me so graciously?
15446And when the girl has prepared several rôles where shall she find the opportunity to try them out?
15446And why should not the executive artist reassure himself by having his music with him?
15446Before parting a final question was asked:"What, in your opinion, are the vital requisites necessary to become a singer?"
15446But what are they in your big country?
15446But when these are mastered, what then?
15446COLORATURA AND DRAMATIC"Would you be pleased,"I asked,"if later on your voice should develop into a dramatic soprano?"
15446COLORATURA OR DRAMATIC"Do I think the coloratura voice will ever become dramatic?
15446Can you comprehend the dense ignorance of many music students on these subjects?
15446Can you fancy a place where there had never even been a concert?
15446Can you give a little more light on this point?"
15446Can you imagine a vocal teacher who can not sing himself, who is so to say voiceless, unable to demonstrate what he teaches?
15446Can you think of a musician, especially a singer, without imagination?
15446DOES THE SINGER HEAR HIMSELF?
15446Does any one ever say to you--''How are you treating the world to- day?''
15446Does not then all come from thinking-- from thought?
15446Duval:"What is Vocal Mastery?
15446HALF OR FULL VOICE?
15446How can a singer expect the audience will take an interest in what she is doing, if they have no idea what it is all about?
15446How can any other person tell you how that is to be done?"
15446How can any other person tell you how that should be done?"
15446How do we make tones, sing an aria, impersonate a rôle?
15446How often people greet you with the words:''Well, how is the world treating you to- day?''
15446In answer to my first question,"What must one do to become a singer?"
15446In the face of the coming concert what did those people do?
15446In times gone by had we not discussed by the hour every phase of Maurel''s mastery of voice and action?
15446Indeed how can two people ever give out a phrase in the same way, when they each feel it differently?
15446Indeed what can be done without intelligence?
15446Indeed, can we ever rest satisfied, when there is so much to learn, and we can always improve?
15446Is it not the birthright of every Italian to have a voice?
15446Is not all done with the mind, with thought?
15446Is there an actor on any stage to- day who can portray both the grossness of Falstaff and the subtlety of Iago?
15446LEARNING A NEW RÔLE"How do I begin a new part?
15446MEMORIZING"How do I memorize?
15446Now, what is it I can tell you?
15446People talk of finishing their vocal technic; how can that ever be done?
15446Really of what use is backing anyway?
15446SELF- STUDY"How did I learn to know these things?
15446Shall the singer imagine she can pronounce a foreign tongue in any old way, and it will go-- in these days?
15446THE COLORATURA VOICE"You love the coloratura music, do you not, Madame?"
15446THE QUESTION OF HEALTH"And you would first know how I keep strong and well and always ready?
15446THE START IN OPERA"How did you start upon an operatic career?"
15446TONE PLACEMENT"Can you describe tone placement?"
15446That is all very well; but what about the chest, the larynx, the throat, the head and all the rest of the anatomy?
15446That is human nature, is n''t it?"
15446The audiences are blamed for their apathy or indifference, but how can they be warmed when the singer does not kindle them into life?
15446The test will be; do you feel rested and ready for work each morning?
15446Then why are there so few American singers who are properly prepared for a career?
15446VOCAL MASTERY As we stood at the close of the conference, I asked the supreme question-- What do you understand by Vocal Mastery?
15446VOCAL MASTERY"What do I understand by Vocal Mastery?
15446VOCAL MASTERY"What do I understand by vocal mastery?
15446VOCAL MASTERY"What is Vocal Mastery?
15446WHAT ARE THE ASSETS FOR A CAREER?
15446WHAT BRANCHES OF STUDY MUST BE TAKEN UP?
15446WHEN TO PRACTICE"No doubt you do much practice-- or is that now necessary?"
15446Was there ever a more elegant courtly Don, a greater Falstaff, a more intriguing Iago?
15446What are mere notes and signs compared to the thoughts expressed through them?
15446What can be done without a musical nature?
15446What can be done without it?
15446What can even a whole hour''s talk reveal of the deep undercurrents of an artist''s thought?
15446What do you consider the most important and necessary subject for the young singer, or any one who wishes to enter the profession, to consider?"
15446What is the impression-- can it be defined?
15446What then happens?
15446What, in your opinion, goes into the acquiring of Vocal Mastery?"
15446Where shall we find his like to- day?"
15446Whether I have a little more voice, or less voice, what does it matter?
15446Who is equal to the task?"
15446Why do we hear of so few who make good and amount to something?
15446Why should it take the singer such a long time to master the material of his equipment?
15446Why should we not expect it?
15446Will you believe we had to make over two thousand in order to secure the one hundred needed for the present series?
15446Without these, plus musical reputation, how is one to succeed in one of the two opera houses of the land?
15446You remember Lilli Lehmann''s talks about the''long scale''?
15446You think my voice sounds something like Patti''s?
38023''Well, Mr. Fields,''she said, with great impressiveness,''what have you new in literature to- day? 38023 About the American''twang''?
38023Did n''t I tell you so?
38023Did you see the advertisement?
38023Do n''t you know why everything on the stage has been going so badly to- night?
38023Do you remember,he said, laughing,"how embarrassed I was when you kissed me?
38023For heaven''s sake, Behrens,said I,"what''s the public going to do while we stand there?
38023Heavens, Louise,they exclaimed,"what do you do in this opera anyway?
38023How can I tell?
38023How did you do it?
38023How did you manage to reach the Czar?
38023How do you know that?
38023I have never heard her-- do I know that she can sing? 38023 I''ve come,"said she in a soft, small voice,"to ask you if you would please kiss me?"
38023Indeed? 38023 My dear,"she exclaimed,"tell me what are''buttered nuts''?"
38023My pin is upside- down, is n''t it?
38023Oh, Miss,she cried in a tone of awe and curtseying to his name,"you do n''t mean''i m that wrote_ Tell me not in mournful numbers_?
38023Sing where?
38023Sing?
38023Then I do n''t sing wrong?
38023Was all that gossip about disputes and jealousies between Kellogg and Gary last season a managerial dodge for notoriety?
38023Well,remarked that gentleman casually, winking at Jarrett,"can she sing?"
38023What are you going to do about it?
38023What are you going to wear?
38023What do you expect me to do?
38023What do you expect,I demanded, in my old- fashioned yet childish way, being at the time eighteen,"what do you expect of a person of my age?"
38023What do you mean,he demanded,"by taking liberties with the music like that?"
38023What do you think it is worth?
38023What do you think of Americans as an opera- going people?
38023What do you wear it that way for?
38023What have we done?
38023What is all this talk I hear about a lot of rich men coming to the front in New York to support Mapleson''s operatic ventures with their money?
38023What is your song?
38023Where are you bound for?
38023Who is she,they would demand indignantly,"to come and take the bread out of our mouths?"
38023Why did n''t you say so in the first place?
38023Why did n''t you say so?
38023Why on earth,cried the publisher,"do n''t you get a new hat?"
38023Will you bet?
38023You sang that for me in Washington, did n''t you, Miss Kellogg?
38023You would n''t expect me to sing?
38023You-- don''t think that she will be offended if I send her this message-- now-- do you?
38023_ Nichts?_he repeats.
38023_ That?_ I would n''t sing like that for anything! 38023 _ Was hast du gesehen?_"says he.
38023A tenor?
38023After another lovely thing which he played for us, I was so impressed by the rare tone of his instrument that I asked:"Is that a Böhm flute?"
38023Although one woman did write,"who ever saw more simplicity on the stage?"
38023And how, often and often, it is then that victory comes?
38023And then he asked,"How would you like to sing?"
38023And, my dear Miss Kellogg, who_ was_ Tennyson?"
38023Are you not crying for the moon in union with your Emersons and Longfellows-- with your La Farges and your Gilders?
38023Are you not yourself the_ Spirit Nightingale of the West_?
38023Besides, what rivalry could there possibly be between a soprano and a contralto?
38023But did she ever give a double a chance to lead her battle charge?
38023But what do they care for the twilight of the Valley?
38023But why, O why, the eternal_ Soldiers''Chorus_?
38023CHAPTER XXXII GOOD- BYE TO RUSSIA-- AND THEN?
38023Can we hold their interest for so long while nothing is happening?"
38023Clara Louise Kellogg, eh?
38023Colonel Stebbins, who was anxious, said to Maretzek:"Do n''t you think she had better have a German coach in the part?"
38023Could anything be more delicious than the taste of black birch?
38023Could anything be more entertaining than this naïve fashion of making a date in Heaven?
38023Did they grasp the moon in the waters and at last disturb the image?
38023Did you hear that''la''in the second act?
38023Do I make myself understood, I wonder?
38023Do n''t you know how, after striving and straining for something, you at last relax and let some inner part of your brain carry on the battle?
38023Do n''t you notice the difference?
38023Do they speak English in America?"
38023Do you find your artists difficult to manage?
38023Do you think I''d better do my bicycle act next?"
38023Everyone in the front of the house is asking''where''s the_ prima donna_?''"
38023GOOD- BYE TO RUSSIA-- AND THEN?
38023Has she the means for experimenting, or does she have to earn her living in some way meanwhile?
38023Have I mentioned her name?
38023He idly struck a note and asked my mother:"What note is that I am striking?
38023He would come panting into the house, his round face beaming, and gasp:"Any new American jokes?
38023He?
38023How am I going to do it?_"I sang around in circles until I was able to give the Contessa the correct note.
38023How could it have been otherwise, considering the care she has always taken of herself?
38023How do you do it?"
38023How does he breathe?
38023How many people know that Miss Cushman had studied singing and had a very fine_ baritone_ contralto voice?
38023I carry away America in your voice; and what better token can your nation offer?
38023I cried from the next room,"do n''t you know what note that is?"
38023I explained volubly and eagerly,"she was of the well- to- do class-- the burghers-- don''t you remember?
38023I gasped,"what is she doing?
38023I gazed with horror at the brown liquid in my tumbler, and then said faintly to the waiter:"Ca n''t you get me some clear water, please?"
38023I imagine it is because you do n''t mind putting yourselves under obligations, is n''t it?"
38023I remember Jenny Lind sang:"Birdling, why sing''st thou in the forest wild?
38023I sometimes wonder if other singers do the same with obdurate auditors?
38023I suppose you''ve seen one before, Miss Kellogg?"
38023I wonder how many people to- day know even the name of Fanny Elssler, the dancer who captivated the young King of Rome and lived with him for so long?
38023I wonder if anybody besides singers get such an extraordinary sense of contact and connection with members of their audiences?
38023I wonder if such mad, national excitement could come to people to- day?
38023If Gary was n''t pleased with her treatment last year, why should she engage with us again?
38023In Rostand''s play, they ask Chanticleer:"What is your life?"
38023Is it because all civilisations are destined to have their days and nights of Brahma?
38023Is n''t this a masterpiece?
38023Is this believable?
38023It became quite a joke with them to cry out suddenly, at any sort of sound-- a whistle, or a bell:"Now, what note is that?
38023Lucca came to me laughing and said that some one had asked her:"How do you dare to sing on the same bill with Miss Kellogg, the American favourite?"
38023Next day every one was rushing about demanding,"Who was her teacher?
38023Nilsson, even, was too-- shall I say,_ knowing_?
38023Now how does he do it?"
38023Now, suppose you go on and find that you can''t-- what will you do then?
38023Odd?
38023Or am I mistaken?
38023Or was the principle that organised the European nations itself a false one?
38023Past the back of Taurus, away among the Pleiades, whither dost thou go?
38023Shall my soul return, or-- never?)
38023She has often brought me a book of poetry, pointed out the best thing in it, and said in her soft way:"Do n''t you think this is nice?
38023So I said to my young Connecticut friend:"My dear, you are trying to support yourself and your mother, are n''t you?
38023The thing that one has chosen for one''s life work in the world:--what labour could be too great for it, or what too minute?
38023To each I brought a clearer vision, a surer touch, a more flexible method, a finer( how shall I say it in English?)
38023What are you fitted for?
38023What can you turn your hand to?
38023What do you think this jewelry is really worth?"
38023What have you acquired?
38023What is the use of diadems and coronets if the owner does not wear them?
38023What key was that in, Miss Kellogg?"
38023When the girl had finished, I said:"My dear, have you read those words?"
38023When?
38023Where is the future of music to be?
38023Who gave her this wonderful style and tone?"
38023Who is this Miss Kellogg anyway?"
38023Who was it said"the world goes round with revolutions"?
38023Who wrote them?"
38023Why did n''t these rich men that want opera in New York give me any money?
38023Why this everlasting, tedious march,_ when there are so many excellent band pieces on the market that would fit the occasion better_?"
38023Why?
38023Why?
38023Why_ did_ we choose that day of all others on which to begin a journey?
38023Will you allow me to do so?
38023Will you also condescend to write to me at your leisure?
38023Will you not favour me by writing again?
38023[ Illustration:= Carl Strakosch= From a photograph by H. W. Barnett] The last time I saw Patti I said to her:"Adelina, have you got through singing?"
38023and the Israelite climbed down exclaiming in crestfallen accents:"How did you know it?"
38023and then--"I wonder--_could_ it also be the crazy woman who wanted me to kiss her?"
38023exclaimed the landlord, in a new tone,"you will pay_ extra_ for the dinner, if we are willing to serve it for you now?"
38023he cried,"did you ever see anything so splendid?
38023where''s your music?"
22244A door mat?
22244A door- mat?
22244Am I all right to go down just as I am?
22244And why not?
22244Are either of you going down to dinner now? 22244 Are you actually in earnest?"
22244Are you really so very young as all that?
22244Are you sure?
22244Are you the new girl?
22244Are you the new pupil?
22244Bad dreams?
22244Been associating with the song- birds in the upper air, Miss Pat? 22244 Been here today?"
22244Bruce Hayden, when did these come?
22244But is Milano in town?
22244But tell me, Miss Pat, was that all that Milano said? 22244 Constance is getting on with them, is she?
22244Could n''t you have sent for me, even if you did n''t want to come yourself? 22244 Did n''t your sister know what she meant?"
22244Did you hear me put it to her?
22244Did you indeed?
22244Do you have to keep it?
22244Do you know I was dreadfully afraid of you that day at Tancredi''s?
22244Do you think it a good plan?
22244Do you think so?
22244Do you want to hear every scrap, just as it happened,she asked,"from beginning to end?"
22244Does your aunt still object to your living here?
22244Felice Vanding?
22244First day?
22244Going to be married, Fair Rosamond, or is it merely preparation for the dance next week?
22244Have n''t they told you yet?
22244Have you anyone yet?
22244Have you broken the news to the future prima donna?
22244Have you notified Miss Ardsley? 22244 Have you seen the place, Elinor?"
22244Hope you have n''t been wandering about in this frosty burg too long?
22244How about when they are being shaped? 22244 How did you hear it?
22244How in creation did you unearth them?
22244Hullo, all alone?
22244Humph, listen to that, will you?
22244I know it is n''t time for the puncture you requested, but would it bother you if I asked when our own Miss Pat is coming back? 22244 I wonder why I never met her before?"
22244Is Miss Merton in?
22244Is n''t it a perfect duck of a place?
22244Is n''t it a stunning big room?
22244Is n''t it queer how soon you get used to places? 22244 Is n''t that Doris Leighton at the tea- table?
22244Is she really very rich?
22244Is she sort of stiff and dried- up?
22244Is she suffering much?
22244Is the fair Rosamond under the weather again?
22244Is there anything else you want me to do?
22244It says the seventeenth, does n''t it? 22244 It seems queer that she should have gone out to Rockham with her cousin to stay at Red Top, does n''t it?"
22244It sounds true, does n''t it?
22244It would be jolly enough, but how about the cost?
22244It''s too splendid, is n''t it?
22244May I break my rules and use your phone?
22244Must she be very old?
22244Mysteries, and with your late rival in the hen- yard?
22244Nice?
22244Not care for him?
22244Oh, Judy, wo n''t it be fine?
22244Oh, am I, indeed?
22244Oh, are you doing some panels for her?
22244Ought I put on a hat or something?
22244Pupil of Tancredi?
22244S-- shall I try it again?
22244Shall I bother you if I move out?
22244Shall I tell Miss Ardsley before I phone to the doctor?
22244She''ll be feeling better after a by, wo n''t you, Rosamond?
22244Should you be very cross with me if it were n''t all a dream, Miss Pat?
22244Small Sister Pat, may I tell you how glad I am?
22244Sure you do n''t mind, Ju?
22244Tell her, will you, Elinor, when she comes in that she must come tomorrow?
22244There''s a hint for me, is it? 22244 Was Elinor wearing her gray furs?"
22244Was it the musical set, or social?
22244Was she at all interested?
22244We''ll try to put up with being a failure as a martyr, wo n''t we, my dear?
22244What are you trying to tell me?
22244What color is it to be?
22244What did she say at that?
22244What do you mean, Judith?
22244What has Elinor to do with tea- rooms and the like?
22244What is it, Bruce?
22244What is it, Judy- pudy?
22244What''s that about me?
22244What''s that you''re talking about?
22244When did it happen?
22244When did she tell you?
22244Who''s playing?
22244Who''s requesting the pleasure of my society?
22244Why in the world did she and her mother come to see him then? 22244 Why should n''t one see all the wonderful places and things in the world?"
22244Why should you go at all?
22244Why would n''t you consent to Patricia having the little room until there is a vacancy?
22244Will it disappoint you, Judy?
22244With a big nose?
22244Wo n''t Rosamond be surprised?
22244You do n''t mind, do you?
22244You unbelieving little wretch, what right had you to make yourself miserable without telling us about it?
22244You''ll do beautifully in her place, wo n''t you?
22244You''ll want me to come over and help you move?
22244You''re awfully meek now, are n''t you?
22244Your altar- piece, Constance?
22244Am I to go alone?
22244And how was anyone to know what Rosamond Merton might think of such swift intimacies?
22244And what time am I to come?"
22244Are you going to make the salad in here?
22244Art mongers and singers and a few chaperones that know their business----"Patricia broke in with puzzled wonder:"What are you talking about, Ted?"
22244As she sat down again she thought she heard the door open and she asked,"Is that you, Constance?"
22244But you''ll help me, wo n''t you?
22244CHAPTER V ROSAMOND INSISTS"What is it, Norn?"
22244CHAPTER VI PATRICIA MAKES ANOTHER FRIEND"Is n''t it really lovely and cozy?"
22244Can you honestly say that you know anyone who has n''t been the better for a little hammering?"
22244Constance Fellows had been with her and Miss Tatten has just gone up----""Miss Tatten?"
22244Did she know I''d been with Pancri in Rome and Martona in Paris?
22244Did she say that Tancredi had spoken of me?"
22244Did she tell you anything about Miss Ardsley, the new directress?"
22244Do n''t you think I might do with less, Norn?
22244Do you know Tancredi?"
22244Do you mind getting out my night things?
22244Do you think you could look her up and tell her we''re all sure that she wants to see us as much as we want to see her?"
22244Does Elinor know?
22244Ever been away from home before?"
22244Funny, is n''t it, that she could n''t have known me for herself?"
22244Had the end come so swiftly?
22244Has a physician been called?"
22244Have you a studio, or are you studying at one of the schools?"
22244Have you been fearfully homesick?"
22244Have you been quite comfortable?
22244Have you known Merton long?"
22244How can you do it, when you''re so young?
22244How did you guess it?"
22244How did you recognize the hall- marks?
22244How do you like her?
22244How many of the selfish, pampered ones amount to a row of pins?
22244I thought you were vocal and Tancredi?"
22244I wonder what she is phoning to Mrs. Blakely for?
22244I wonder what she meant by caviar?"
22244I wonder why she''s taken such an aversion to Rosamond lately?
22244Is anyone coming?"
22244Is it a surprise?
22244Is it so gorgeous as the peacock panels that Constance Fellows is doing for you?"
22244Is n''t it stupid to have to call up Tatten every time one wants a tray in one''s room?
22244Is that the best you can do for me?
22244Is your stained glass window done, Norn, and has Marty been behaving as well as ever?
22244It gets you, does n''t it?
22244It''s queer, is n''t it, how she makes you feel?
22244Just remind me about it when I''m getting top- lofty, will you, please?
22244My word, Patricia Kendall, ca n''t you see it?
22244Nat?"
22244Pretty great for the Fair Rosamond, is n''t it?
22244She''s not ill, is she?
22244Something nice usually happens when she rushes in, all laughing and sparkly, does n''t it, Elinor?"
22244That''s going some, is n''t it?"
22244Was her mother there?"
22244Was she being told that she could not study?
22244What are you going to do to liven her dragging days?"
22244What did anything else matter?
22244What do you think of it?"
22244What have we here?"
22244What was it the Woods girl had said about Rosamond entertaining Madame Milano at luncheon last week?
22244What''s that?"
22244What''s up?
22244What''s your name?"
22244When did you do it?
22244Where did you learn to make such lovely things?"
22244Where is it now?"
22244Who''s to bring the chaperone for these festivities?"
22244Why did n''t you tell me about it sooner?
22244Why do n''t you sing like you used to?"
22244Why should n''t He look triumphant when He''d opened the door so wide?"
22244Will you come and stay with me for a month?"
22244Will you let me see them?
22244You are n''t studying with Tancredi, are you?"
22244You did n''t think it was in the Bandbox or the Comique, did you?"
22244You''ll keep me remembering how much we''ve always despised conceited, stuck- up people?
22244You''re about the happiest girl in the world just now, are n''t you?"
22244You''re with Tancredi, too, are n''t you?"
58876Am I right?
58876And you will not breathe it to any living soul?
58876And--she coloured a little---"you''ll come and see my bird''s nest in the field?"
58876Andrew, you just make out the appointment, will you? 58876 Andrew,"she whispered,"will you be good to me?"
58876Are you better now?
58876Are you pleased?
58876Are you ready?
58876Are you?
58876Baking?
58876Ca n''t I help?
58876Ca n''t you do anything to bring her to? 58876 Certain?"
58876Could I come over?
58876Did Mr. Morris tell you that?
58876Did you get the shoes off her?
58876Did you hear that the school- teacher leaves next week?
58876Did you meet Andrew Cutler? 58876 Did you save her tail to make a fly brush?"
58876Did you skin her?
58876Did you skin her?
58876Did you? 58876 Do n''t you want to rest?"
58876Do you keep them in the store?
58876Do you keep them?
58876Do you know what Mrs. Browning says of such a tree?
58876Do you know what the frogs say?
58876Do you know who I am?
58876Do you think any bad luck will come of it?
58876Does your aunt visit the Morrises?
58876Forgiveness is worth that, is n''t it?
58876Free of water?
58876Going to church?
58876Going to rain in three days?
58876How d''ye like the blind horse, Mr. Symmons? 58876 How do you know?"
58876How does the clearing look?
58876I say, Andrew, ca n''t you do it? 58876 Is Miss Moore alive?"
58876Is it your cat? 58876 Is n''t that a new idea?"
58876Is n''t that plant pretty?
58876Is she dead?
58876Man or woman?
58876May I come back and take you to see some birds''nests nearer the ground?
58876May I take some of those big earthen jars out there?
58876Meeting over, Mr. Braddon? 58876 Mr. Cutler,"said Judith,"did people know what the frogs said before they found out that the miller stole?"
58876Mr. Cutler,she said hastily,"you do n''t think I gave you sorrow?"
58876No; what?
58876Now, Sam,said Green, impressively,"did you give her a''Black''s Condition Powder''?"
58876Oh, Mr. Cutler,said Judith,"do you think I''ve given you sorrow?"
58876Oh, Mrs. Slick is owing, is she?
58876Oh, is it on that side? 58876 Oh, so a rumour has gone abroad in the land?
58876Oh, will you?
58876Sam,said Hiram Green, slowly,"have you tried Epsom salts?
58876Say where In upper air Dost hope to find fulfilment of thy dream? 58876 Say, be you never coming back?"
58876Suppose I send my aunt over to see you?
58876The way to old man Morris''? 58876 The''Aaron''s Beard''or the''Jacob''s Ladder''?"
58876There''s the orchard field to plough and I''m behindhand already, but--his old pride forbidding him to accept too eagerly--"don''t you need him?"
58876Tommy,she said,"you like me, do n''t you?
58876Trouble? 58876 Was it very awful to liken crab blooms to salmon?
58876Well, Os?
58876Well, father?
58876Well, it''s a lonely place to choose, is n''t it?
58876What have you been doing to- day?
58876What is it?
58876What is the sweetest time in all the world?
58876What shall I sing?
58876What''s she here for, anyhow?
58876What''s this I hear about your mare?
58876What''s wrong?
58876What?
58876Which?
58876Who could wonder then that she wants to talk a bit?
58876Who is the girl you''ve got boarding with you?
58876Why in the world do you wear shoes like these?
58876Will you forgive me?
58876Will you give me some water?
58876Wo n''t you sing to us, Miss Moore?
58876Wot are you making, Miss Suse?
58876Would you like me to sing to you?
58876Yes, lovely,said Andrew, fervently:"but do n''t you think you ought to get well before you do all this?
58876You are not angry?
58876You will come back?
58876You''ll tell Suse, wo n''t you, Mr. Symmons, that her appointment is in the mails?
58876Your aunt?
58876A simple dream this?
58876A voice-- then whence?
58876And Judith?
58876And Judith?
58876And meanwhile, Judith was learning that"Face joy''s a costly mask to wear,"and asking wearily of each day that dawned,"_ Is not my destiny complete?
58876And should it be denied him?
58876And surely Death did not come garbed in shabby, smoky velveteen, nor bend above his victims a brown passionate face wet with tears?
58876And their talk?
58876And were Death''s arms ever so sustaining, so tender, so warm as these?
58876And you like Andrew Cutler?
58876And you stood by and never said a word?
58876Bathe her face, or something?"
58876Been dyeing?"
58876Being she''s a woman, do n''t you think you could fix it so''s she''d chop the wood for winter?
58876But the lilies would bloom in good time-- and the heart?
58876But what matter for the Pipe, so that the world, when it has time to listen, may hear sweet singing?
58876Come hither, for have we not found it?
58876Could any man forgive the perfidy of which she had been guilty?
58876Cutler?"
58876Dearest, you do n''t think I would be bad to you?"
58876Did an Ovidian attend a funeral?
58876Did an Ovidian hear a more than usually spicy piece of gossip?
58876Did she intend to throw it away?
58876Did she try to burn it?
58876Did you hear any noise when Tommy passed?
58876Did you see anything of it?"
58876Do n''t you know?
58876Do you mind?"
58876Does it not seem that in time I might make it up?
58876Get us into trouble?
58876Have I not lived?
58876Have I not loved?
58876He would have made any reparation he could, but how on earth was he to find the yokel she was in love with?
58876How do I get over?"
58876Is not that a great reward for which to fast, and thirst, and labour?
58876Judith, dear little girl, you wo n''t make me wait too long?"
58876Meeting over?"
58876Morris?"
58876Morris?"
58876Now, what did she do?
58876Now, will you do something for me that no one else in the world can do?"
58876On what far peak seest thou a morning gleam?
58876Pen, wot keeps the dairy farm, he came along, and says,''Wot''ll you take for the mare?''
58876Pen-- him wot I worked for as has the dairy farm-- he came along, and he says to Mr. Pierson, says he,''Wot''ll you take for the mare?''
58876Recognizing this; what tenderness should not be felt towards such women, what gratitude accorded them for the good gift they have rendered up?
58876Run away and yowl?
58876So, will you set me free?
58876That letter is S.""Oh, is it?"
58876That means in three days it will storm-- of course, rain-- you''d hardly expect snow, would you?"
58876The"Great God Pan"was all unconscious of his cruelty, was he not, when he fashioned the pipe out of a river reed?
58876Then, persuasively,"Do n''t you want to come and see a bird''s nest?"
58876They walked on a few moments in silence; then Andrew said:"Will you sing in church?"
58876To be the husband of such a woman, could man desire a better fate?
58876True, he trembled at her voice and touch now-- but then, after?
58876Was a subject upon which he could not, or would not, give a direct opinion under discussion?
58876Weighed the paper with the cheese?
58876Well--"Dreams are true whilst they last And do we not live in dreams?"
58876What did you call me?"
58876What did you call''em?"
58876What does England''s greatest woman poet say?
58876What else?"
58876What manner of woman was this?
58876What more?_"And the time for her American_ début_ drew on.
58876What''s he I wonder?
58876Whatever be these dogs a- yelping at?
58876When do you think your aunt will come?"
58876When this chorus subsided, Mr. Horne, who had just entered, said:"What do you think of that concession, Os, out back of Braddon''s?"
58876Where was she?
58876Who is he?"
58876Why needst thou mount to sing?
58876Why seek the sun''s fierce- tempered glow and glare?
58876Why shall a soulless impulse prompt thy wing?"
58876Why shall the stars still blind thee unaware?
58876Why, do n''t you see, I like to scold as much as you like to eat; so if you enjoy the one, why may n''t I the other?"
58876Why?"
58876Why?"
58876Will you help pay it?
58876Will you let me stay here?
58876Will you let me stop singing and be forgotten?
58876Will you sit down?"
58876Wo n''t take off your things?
58876and asafoetida?
58876and bled her?
58876and ginger?
58876and given her a bran- mash?
58876and now you wo n''t consider this?''
58876and rye?
58876and saltpetre?
58876and sweet spirits of nitre?
58876and tried turpentine and salt?"
58876did you not swear to see justice done?
58876is that you?"
58876the spring had brought her-- would the summer give her to him?
58876was n''t it hot in town to- day, Andrew?"
17495A dance led, so to speak, by the elusive Monsieur Chatelard?
17495Again, may one ask why?
17495Agatha Redmond, will you marry me?
17495Ah, hello, Chamberlain, that you?
17495And are you much better now?
17495And he remembers?
17495And how did he''disappear instantly?'' 17495 And if I refuse to return?"
17495And if I should not consult my cousin?
17495And is that your tree out there?
17495And may I go with you?
17495And pray, where should I get a bouquet?
17495And that message is--?
17495And that scamp walked right into your hands and you let him go?
17495And the other inn you spoke of-- where is that?
17495And to whom, pray, shall I have the honor to say farewell, at the auspicious moment when I jump overboard?
17495And what day is to- day?
17495And what--?
17495And where are our patients?
17495And you escaped?
17495And you followed to rescue me if you could?
17495Any more kinks in this story? 17495 Anybody ready to take me down to the_ Sea Gull_ in the car?"
17495Are n''t we all symbols for you-- if not of hope, then of your success as a host? 17495 Are these the relatives you were visiting, Miss Redmond?"
17495Are you His mouthpiece?
17495Are you going to get me a meal, or must I tramp over these confounded hills all day before I can eat?
17495Are you going to marry that man you have been living with these many days?
17495Are you ready to turn this bijou dream into a laboratory smelling of alcohol and fish? 17495 Are you sure?
17495Are you very cold?
17495But are n''t you tired already? 17495 But could I really go there?
17495But could you not find out more? 17495 But even suppose we are within a mile or two, say, of the shore, could you ever swim two miles in this heavy sea?"
17495But my dear Miss Agatha Redmond, where_ did_ you intend to go?
17495But now that you are assured that I''m not a ghost, will you sit down? 17495 But please, Mrs. Stoddard, will you not reconsider your decision?
17495But suppose we should decide not to go home at all?
17495But were you hiding, Miss Redmond?
17495But why should I tell him, as you suggest?
17495Can I do anything for you, Mademoiselle?
17495Can I see the lady, Miss Redmond? 17495 Can I see the lady, or either of the gentlemen, who recently arrived here from the yacht, the_ Jeanne D''Arc_?"
17495Can you think where he would be likely to go? 17495 Come to get a marriage license?"
17495Comes from N''York?
17495Did Chatelard go off in that machine?
17495Did he have a good night?
17495Did he visit you on board the yacht?
17495Did n''t you know there were a hundred chances to one the yacht would n''t pick you up?
17495Did that bloomin''sheriff let that bloomin''rascal get away?
17495Did what, dear friend?
17495Did you come off without any serious injury? 17495 Did you find out where they were going, or who was back of their scheme?"
17495Did-- did the papers have much to say about my leaving town?
17495Do what, my friend?
17495Do you agree to that, my lady?
17495Do you always take such-- such venturesome holidays?
17495Do you know also that if I marry out of my rank and without the consent of Duke Stephen, I shall forfeit all my fortune?
17495Do you know who this man is?
17495Do you remember how we used to talk, when we were kiddies, about keeping our ideals? 17495 Do you wish to go home, Auntie, or is it that you think I ought to go?"
17495Doctor Thayer,she urged,"do you want that woman to come here to take care of Mr. Hambleton?
17495Does n''t it make you want to sing?
17495Dynamite, is it? 17495 Er-- Andy-- couldn''t you get me some kind of a tie?
17495For once you were caught, eh? 17495 Go to the old red house-- to stay?"
17495Had n''t I better drive you over to see Susan myself?
17495Had you ever seen the man Chatelard before?
17495Have a pear?
17495Have you anything there to do that is more important than listening to me for fifteen minutes?
17495Have you got on a hat?
17495Have you guessed who I am, then? 17495 Have you seen Sister Susan?"
17495He had nothing to do with it?
17495Hold on, young man; you''re not going to do anything out of reason, as one might say?
17495Honest true, cross your heart?
17495How can yon say, Mrs. Stoddard,''that work is not for me,''when there is suffering you can relieve, sickness that you can cure? 17495 How did you happen to be on the_ Jeanne D''Arc_?"
17495How did you know?
17495How did you make out with Susan?
17495How do you do, Miss Redmond?
17495How''d you know? 17495 How-- picked up?"
17495I fancy it is the same-- James Hambleton of Lynn?
17495I said, are you wearing a hat? 17495 If she is being kidnapped, why does n''t she make somebody hear?
17495Ilion, then, was once your home?
17495Is it true? 17495 Is this the Red House?"
17495Is your amiable cousin''s henchman a man to be scared off by our recent little encounter, do you think?
17495Is your cousin, then, such a tyrant?
17495Is your patient any better?
17495It seems that you know this man, MÃ © lanie?
17495It''s dark, but it''s better than it was that other night, is n''t it?
17495James, dear, will you forgive me for this afternoon?
17495Lord, why did n''t you tell me?
17495Mademoiselle?
17495May I call to- morrow, Miss Reynier, at about twelve?
17495May one ask why?
17495Monsieur Chatelard?
17495Morning? 17495 My dear young woman--"( Why is it that when a person is particularly out of temper, he is constrained to say My_ Dear_ So and So?)
17495No? 17495 No?
17495Nor Chatelards?
17495Of course, we''ve broken down?
17495Oh, I say,put in Jones,"all of you come to luncheon with me at the Little Gray Fox-- will you?
17495Oh, tell me,she cried impulsively,"is it possible that you knew Hercules Thayer?
17495Oo avay- voo cashay mon money- belt?
17495Or are you, perhaps, hungry? 17495 Or-- what?''
17495Perhaps there is,she said at last,"but who can guess where that limit is?
17495Should the servants of the Lord falter in doing His work?
17495Tell me,he begged,"is this your house, really''n truly?"
17495That''s me, then, is n''t it? 17495 That''s right, is it?
17495The Red House? 17495 The_ Jeanne D''Arc_, was it?"
17495Then how did you get off?
17495Though,she added,"here in the dark, who can tell whether I have rosy cheeks or not?"
17495Tow her home and fill her up and she''ll be all right, eh?
17495Want to buy some land?
17495Was there any other message, Miss Redmond? 17495 Well, how''d he take that?"
17495Well, what do you think is the exact result Duke Stephen wants, in this case?
17495Well, what''s this? 17495 Well, what''s to be done?
17495What d''you know about that chauffeur- nurse and general roustabout that''s taking care of your young gentleman up- stairs?
17495What did I tell you?
17495What do you know of him?
17495What do you think death means? 17495 What for?"
17495What for?
17495What game are you up to, anyway, in this disgusting country?
17495What good would that do?
17495What is the matter? 17495 What on earth is it?"
17495What on earth, man, is the matter with you?
17495What sort of excitement?
17495What were you in the water for?
17495What were you on the tug for?
17495What''d he kidnap you for-- ransom?
17495What''d you do?
17495What''s that?
17495Where are you from, anyway?
17495Where did you learn to swim?
17495Where is he? 17495 Where''d you get all your good clothes, I''d like to know?"
17495Which one, as they stand there now, do you take to be Miss Redmond?
17495Who can tell? 17495 Who said anything about its being bad?
17495Who''s got away?
17495Whom did he kidnap?
17495Why did you do it, Mademoiselle?
17495Why did you raise the top?
17495Why do n''t you run after him and get your money?
17495Why not let me go? 17495 Why not?
17495Why not?
17495Why should I answer your questions, Mr. Hand, when you so persistently ignore mine?
17495Why should he come here? 17495 Why?
17495Why?
17495Will you come in?
17495Will you please give those to Miss Redmond?
17495Will you tell me what-- what remuneration you were receiving as chauffeur?
17495Would Mrs. Stoddard come, if it were not for what you said-- about me?
17495Would you like New York and a bishop and a big church better than the old red house and the Charlesport minister?
17495You are not hurt badly?
17495You mean it?
17495You mean to say that you were picked up and drugged in broad daylight in New York?
17495You mean you heard me call for help, there on the hill?
17495You were quite exhausted, I think; and we feared you might be ill."And Handy Andy got my job?
17495You''ll stay on in the old red house?
17495You''re a little better now, are n''t you, after your sleep? 17495 You''ve heard from Mr. Straker, of course, Miss Redmond?"
17495_ Did_ he jump overboard, honest- true, hanging on to that spike?
17495''Ow''d you make out?"
17495''Why not?''
17495A family party?
17495A moment''s hesitation, and then the lady turned away with a short,"You will wait?"
17495And I hope my presence here is not too great a burden?"
17495And I like it here better than in Egypt, do n''t you?
17495And are we in the neighborhood of Ilion?"
17495And how did Jim happen to be aboard the_ Jeanne D''Arc_?"
17495And it''s glorious, is n''t it, Miss Redmond?"
17495And now will you do me another kindness?"
17495And presently,"Where does Hand come in?
17495And sometime you must come to see me at the red house; will you?"
17495And stay; have you any money?"
17495And then he asked, very slowly,"Where is''here''?"
17495And then what''ll you do?"
17495And this forest temple-- isn''t it wonderful?"
17495And what is the name, if I may ask, of the young man who is so ill?"
17495And who can blame them for their fear?
17495And your name is--?"
17495Anything else to do?"
17495Are n''t you, Madame?"
17495Are you here, by me, to stay?"
17495Are you ready to spend hours wading in mudbanks after specimens, or scratching in the sand under the broiling sun?
17495Are you there?"
17495Are you?"
17495At last he said:"I guess I have n''t been much good-- for a while-- have I?"
17495But I certainly misunderstood your violent remark a moment ago, did I not?
17495But beyond this, what sort of man was he?
17495But did he say nothing more-- where he was going, and why he changed his plans?"
17495But do you think Miss Redmond would see me, at least for a few minutes?"
17495But how much rope would the duke give him, do you think, on a pinch?"
17495But then,_ you_ wo n''t talk about your hobby; and if I have no one to inform me, how can I be exact?
17495But what about Tom, Dick and Harry all over this place-- casting eyes at a man?"
17495But what is it all about?"
17495But what is the''accident''likely to be?"
17495But why?"
17495But, of course-- there must be many boats by that name, are there not?
17495But--""But what?
17495But--""But-- what?"

17495Can I see him now?"
17495Can you overtake it?"
17495Can you swim a little faster?
17495Can you swim?"
17495Can you undertake to do a job for me?"
17495Clairvoyance?"
17495Could I have done anything?
17495Could n''t you sleep any longer?"
17495Did he come again?"
17495Did you leave the_ Jeanne D''Arc_ when the others did-- when I fell into the water?"
17495Do n''t they know enough to go in out of the rain?"
17495Do n''t you feel a little stronger?"
17495Do n''t you know me well enough to know that?"
17495Do n''t you remember?"
17495Do n''t you think this apartment jolly?"
17495Do you believe that it counts-- for good?"
17495Do you know of a boat named the_ Jeanne D''Arc_?"
17495Do you know the man-- can you identify him?"
17495Do you look like yourself, strong and rosy- cheeked again?"
17495Do you really mean now to stay by me?"
17495Do you remember it?
17495Do you s''pose I''m paying hotel bills all this time at The Larue?"
17495Do you want anything?"
17495Does Mr. Lloyd- Jones''lucre seem more alluring than my little wriggly beasts, Miss Reynier?"
17495First, are you quite recovered from the trouble-- that night''s awful trouble?"
17495Got another of those pears you offered me this morning?"
17495Got any pockets?"
17495Had she not even prayed, with all her concentration of mind and will?
17495Hambleton?"
17495Hambleton?"
17495Hand?"
17495Hand?"
17495Hand?"
17495Handy Andy and I are going out to kill a moose and eat it-- eh, Andy?"
17495Have you been into the house?"
17495He is not an opera singer-- of that I am convinced--"Susan Stoddard here interpolated a stern"Do n''t you know?"
17495He recovered his temper enough to add, quite pleasantly, considering the circumstances,"Unless Madame Reynier will take my part?"
17495He thought likewise of her, it appeared; for when he next spoke it was in a careful whisper:"Are you still awake, Agatha Redmond?"
17495He turned to Hand, who had come in and was adjusting the shades, and asked him:"Do_ you_ believe he''s asleep?"
17495He was not niggardly by nature; and had he given stintingly of his affection to this woman who was to him the best?
17495How could she know that he had risked his neck twice, now, to follow the Vision?
17495How far were they from shore?
17495How''d you know they''d stolen Miss Redmond?"
17495How_ did_ you know it?"
17495I suppose you are come from my excellent cousin to find me, eh?
17495If hopelessly distant from shore, were they in the course of passing steamers?
17495If one can not be exact, why talk at all?"
17495If you''ll be so good as to take it to her?"
17495If you''re Agatha Redmond, it''s yours, is n''t it?
17495In her reverent voice, so suited to exhortation, she demanded:"And what will you do with your life, now that you have been saved by the hand of God?
17495In here?"
17495In the meantime, what is your name, young woman?"
17495Is it a bargain, Miss Reynier?"
17495Is it a case for the law?
17495Is it not so?"
17495Is it simply because I have inherited the money and the house?
17495Is my meaning clear?"
17495Is n''t he?"
17495Is n''t there any one else in this whole countryside who can nurse a sick man?
17495Is not that a heaven- inspired act?"
17495Is that the case?"
17495Is there any evidence to be had?"
17495Is this place a hotel, or is n''t it?"
17495Jimmy smiled his ingenuous smile as he suavely asked,"And do n''t you-- er-- like the idea?"
17495Like to buy?"
17495Meanwhile, what are you going to do without your companion?"
17495Mr. Hand is in Mr. Hambleton''s room, I know, but where are the others?"
17495No?
17495No?
17495Or Sallie would ask, as if her fate depended on the answer,"Did he eat that nice piece er chicken, Aunt Susan?"
17495Or had they hidden her in some secret part of the ship where he could not find her?
17495Or shall I perhaps follow slowly along the drive?"
17495Or, if he wishes to die, why should we thwart him?''
17495Presently he asked, and his voice was full of awe:"Have you ever seen the dawn-- a dawn like this-- before?"
17495Presently he began once more:"I want to know, too, if you were n''t surprised that I knew your name?"
17495Princess who?
17495Quick, you understand?
17495Redmond?"
17495Rest and respite from excruciating effort were to be had for the taking-- why had he withstood them so long?
17495Shall we be we to- morrow, say, provided we ca n''t keep afloat?"
17495Shall we walk back to the house?"
17495Some word for me, which the clerk forgot to deliver?"
17495Stoddard?"
17495Straker?"
17495That he was your brother?
17495That is,"he added with belated punctiliousness,"if the ladies will permit?"
17495That she is mean enough to condemn me without knowing the first thing about this awful accident?
17495That she thinks I was out in a boat alone with two men?
17495That''s it, is n''t it?"
17495The Hillside, you say, is in this direction?"
17495The message was this:"Can you give me any information concerning my cousin, James Hambleton, who was thought to be aboard the_ Jeanne D''Arc_?"
17495Then deliberately:"Why do n''t you go up to the old red house?
17495Then he felt the plunging and rising of the boat, and came to life sufficiently to utter the stereotyped words,"Where am I?"
17495Then why in Heaven''s name do n''t you hurry?"
17495Then, after a long silence,"Where is he?"
17495Think they''re put on in a walking part, eh?
17495This soft shirt business does n''t look very fit, does it, without a tie?"
17495This whole outfit here-- what are they doing?
17495Was he mistaken, after all?
17495Was he not also tasting freedom-- a lord of the earth?
17495Was he to die, now, here on her hands, after the worst of their struggle was over?
17495Was it possible they were absolutely leaving them behind?
17495Was she gay?
17495Was she thoughtful?
17495Was there also a hat?
17495Were n''t you frightened?"
17495Were the pumps working?
17495Were you told that he is better?"
17495What became of the man that was marooned?"
17495What can be done?"
17495What could he do here?"
17495What d''you want now-- an opera hat?"
17495What did the scoundrel want with her?"
17495What did you wish to say?"
17495What do you know of my life, or of him who is sick over at the red house?
17495What is this fool saying?"
17495What night was that?"
17495What then?"
17495What''s the meaning of it all?"
17495When''s he coming back?"
17495When''s she coming?"
17495Where can we go?"
17495Where does she live?"
17495Where from?
17495Where is he?"
17495Where is he?"
17495Where is she?
17495Where is she?"
17495Where would you go?"
17495Where''s Miss Redmond?"
17495Which is the princess?''
17495Which way did he go?
17495Which way is it-- along the path that goes through the churchyard?"
17495Which way is the yacht?
17495Who are you, to sit in judgment upon us?"
17495Why did you do it?"
17495Why do n''t you do the same thing yourself?
17495Why do n''t you open up and get some light?
17495Why have dust and noise and elbowing people, when they might be cutting through the blue waters with the wind fresh in their faces?
17495Why not?
17495Why should one failure in getting one''s desires crush the spirit?
17495Why should you want her, of all people, when she feels so toward us?"
17495Why?
17495Why?"
17495Will that do?"
17495Will you come in?
17495Will you come?"
17495Will you dedicate it to Him, whose child you are?"
17495Will you do it again?"
17495Will you stay here, Doctor Thayer, with Mr. Hambleton, while I go to see your sister?"
17495Will you tell him?"
17495Will you tell me, sir?"
17495Will you tell me?"
17495Will you think me very ungrateful if I say now I wish it had been water?"
17495Would any one look after Miss Redmond''s safety?
17495Would it be all right?
17495Would it not be better to submit to him in friendship, rather than to incur his enmity?
17495Would mademoiselle be so good as to direct me?"
17495You ai n''t the new minister either, now, are you?"
17495You and Madame Reynier are going on a cruise with me; will you?
17495You ca n''t say now, dear, that you care nothing for me-- can you?"
17495You do n''t happen to want a good hotel, do you?"
17495You know it wasn''t--""Then, what was it?"
17495You take this money and be sure to get the message to Mr. Van Camp, will you?
17495You worked for the slippery Mounseer?"
17495You''ll help me to take care of this dear old place-- yes?"
17495You''re free?
17495You''re not--"he searched for the word that suited his mood--"you''re not plighted?"
26593A bunch of daisies?
26593A hundred francs, for something I was sent to tell you?
26593A note?
26593Abby, old man, how are you?
26593Afraid of what?
26593Afraid? 26593 Ah, you know her?"
26593Am I host here or not?
26593Am I making you miss this dance?
26593And I have accomplished this amazing thing?
26593And am I to have no redress? 26593 And break your word to me?"
26593And have a fisticuff which would appear in every newspaper in the world? 26593 And have him following at my heels?"
26593And have him wandering about with that black eye? 26593 And his daughter?"
26593And if I do not?
26593And if I get the invitation?
26593And if I refuse?
26593And now, will you not take me over to your friends?
26593And now...."Yes, and now?
26593And she has disappointed Monsieur?
26593And the other side?
26593And what in mercy''s name is the matter with his heart? 26593 And where is this man now?"
26593And where the dickens did you come from? 26593 And why not?
26593And you remember?
26593And you?
26593And you?
26593And, pray, how?
26593Any one else know?
26593Apologize? 26593 Are you Dick Courtlandt''s boy?"
26593Are you driver for Madame da Toscana?
26593Are you going to be ass enough to pop your gun in the air?
26593Are you in her employ directly, or do you come from the garage?
26593Are you in your right mind? 26593 Are you telling me to leave Bellaggio to- morrow morning?"
26593At the Villa Rosa? 26593 But an errand of mercy, the strange automobile which can not be found?
26593But the pup and the cigar box?
26593But what I want to know is, who the devil is this mysterious blond stranger?
26593But what do you think of Germany?
26593But what earthly chance have I?
26593Can you not cast it out wholly?
26593Chess? 26593 Climb any?"
26593Comfortable?
26593Confess what?
26593Courtlandt? 26593 Dem it, why did n''t the young fool tell me?"
26593Did he say that you were a fool?
26593Did the colonel really propose to you?
26593Did you ever see two finer specimens of man?
26593Difference what makes, James?
26593Do you care for him still?
26593Do you feel that you could make a confidant of me?
26593Do you go to the dancing at Cadenabbia to- night?
26593Do you know what you have done?
26593Do you know who I am?
26593Do you know, Mr. Harrigan, Miss Harrigan is not herself? 26593 Do you mean to stand there and tell me that you have important business?"
26593Do you not think, Madame, that you owe me something?
26593Do you play chess?
26593Do you think I have a chance? 26593 Do you understand?
26593Do you want it?
26593Do you-- er-- think they could whip us?
26593Does it strike you strangely?
26593Done?
26593Ever read this?
26593Five hundred francs? 26593 Followed you?"
26593For me to read?
26593For the love of glory, what are you driving at?
26593For what?
26593For whom have I been mistaken?
26593Forgive you, Nora?
26593Free? 26593 Fritz, Fritz; where are you?"
26593From where?
26593Going to start out to find her? 26593 Going to stay long?"
26593Going, Nora?
26593Great stuff; eh, Barone?
26593Has he given up?
26593Has he...?
26593Have I not said that she is too cold? 26593 Have you read the_ Herald_ this morning?"
26593Have you thought what this means? 26593 He has had no affair?"
26593He is very rich?
26593He wrote you?
26593Heard about him in Paris?
26593Herr Rosen?
26593How long have you known her?
26593How old is he?
26593How, Monsieur?
26593Huh?
26593I may count on you, then?
26593I said that I was a Dutchman?
26593I say, Ted,called out the artist,"what did you mean by saying that you were a Dutchman?"
26593I say, you little Dutchman, what''s the row? 26593 I wonder if I made any breaks?
26593I wonder what new devilment is at work in your mind?
26593I?
26593I?
26593In brief, an alibi?
26593In what way?
26593Is Mr. Abbott going with us?
26593Is her voice really gone?
26593Is it because we have wronged somebody?
26593Is it jealousy? 26593 Is it not glorious?"
26593Is it possible that now I can pay my debt to you?
26593Is n''t she afraid sometimes?
26593Is not that enough?
26593Is she not beautiful?
26593Is that the end of the yarn?
26593Is the comparison favorable to me?
26593Is there another?
26593Is there anything I can do for you, dad?
26593Is there not always a woman?
26593Is this the Signorina Desimone?
26593It is Vesuv'', is it not, on a cloudy day?
26593It was you?
26593It''s a daisy, ai n''t it, Molly?
26593James, where did you get that black eye?
26593Knew what?
26593May I ask who made this request?
26593May I have a dance?
26593Me? 26593 Me?"
26593Molly, what ails you?
26593Monsieur Courtlandt, you will give me your word of honor not to annoy Mademoiselle again?
26593Monsieur comes here frequently, then?
26593Monsieur is certain about the taxicab?
26593Mother,said Nora,"why ca n''t you let him be?"
26593Musical comedies?
26593Never had any serious affair?
26593Never showed any signs of being a woman- hater?
26593No?
26593Noah?
26593Nor a Frenchman?
26593Nora, are you there?
26593Nora, who was that?
26593Now, then, Mr. Courtlandt,said Harrigan, his eyes blue and cold as ice,"perhaps you will explain?"
26593Now, what''s stung the boy?
26593Oh, he did?
26593Oh, those two? 26593 One of the big guns?"
26593One would say that I had been in hiding?
26593Or because somebody has wronged us?
26593Or misjudged us, by us have been misjudged?
26593Oriental, eh? 26593 Out of love for me?"
26593Over there?
26593Paris, Capri, Taormina, Ostend; I marvel if ever you will be content to stay in one place long enough for me to get my breath?
26593Perhaps you think the fellow was her press- agent?
26593Pretty?
26593Rather is he not tall, blond, and young?
26593Refused to singe his wings?
26593Request? 26593 Rumpus?"
26593Saw what?
26593Say, do you know what I think?
26593Shall I challenge him?
26593Shall I tell you? 26593 She looked at him, huh?"
26593She''s getting her voice back all right; eh?
26593Since Eve, has that not been woman''s part in the human comedy?
26593Sing that, Padre?
26593So big that he could n''t have married my girl even if he loved her?
26593So you are Miss Harrigan''s confessor?
26593So you''re Edward Courtlandt? 26593 Supper?"
26593Supposing you let me pilot you over?
26593Tell me, what is it you wish? 26593 That you, Nora?"
26593That''s final?
26593The Opera?
26593The duchess?
26593The old plaint disturbs you?
26593Then there is a political side to it?
26593Then you have met Miss Harrigan?
26593Then you know where the Calabrian lives? 26593 There is a woman?"
26593Think of whom?
26593To see her?
26593To which lady do you refer?
26593To- morrow?
26593Tragedy? 26593 Upon Nora?"
26593Was I bitter? 26593 Was it so unpleasant?"
26593We''d look fine drinking tea, would n''t we, old scout?
26593Well, can you?
26593Well, then, why did you do so foolish a thing? 26593 Well, what do you think of that?
26593Well, what do you think of that?
26593Well, what is it you wish?
26593Well, who can blame him? 26593 Well, why do n''t you marry him?"
26593Well, why should n''t he travel around if he wants to?
26593Well?
26593What am I going to do, Celeste? 26593 What are you doing here?"
26593What brand is that, Colonel?
26593What did I say, Abbott? 26593 What do you call making a fool of myself?"
26593What do you imply by that?
26593What do you say to going down to the hotel and having a game of_ bazzica_, as they call billiards here?
26593What do you say to that?
26593What do you think of him, Nora?
26593What do you want, one for each meal?
26593What has happened? 26593 What has that to do with it?
26593What in the world can have happened?
26593What is he doing here? 26593 What is it, François?"
26593What is it?
26593What is it?
26593What is it?
26593What is it?
26593What is old age?
26593What is the gentleman to you?
26593What is?
26593What part of the lake; the Villa d''Este, Cadenabbia?
26593What produces that condition of mind?
26593What the devil makes_ you_ so bitter?
26593What time do you go over?
26593What was that?
26593What''s on your mind this morning? 26593 What''s the matter now?"
26593What''s the matter with''em? 26593 What''s the odds?
26593What''s the trouble? 26593 What''s your hurry?
26593What, boxes?
26593What? 26593 What?"
26593What?
26593What?
26593When did you come?
26593When you went around the world on your own?
26593Where is he?
26593Who but Monsieur Champeaux''s wife, Mademoiselle, who is not in her right mind?
26593Who cares? 26593 Who in life knows what the end of anything is?
26593Who is that?
26593Who is that?
26593Who knows?
26593Who sent it? 26593 Who was who?"
26593Who''s Fournier?
26593Why did n''t she come to me, if she wanted to ask questions?
26593Why do you think I am lonely, Mademoiselle?
26593Why not speak to your father?
26593Why the devil do n''t you join the Trappist monks, Abbott? 26593 Why?"
26593Why?
26593Will you be here long?
26593Will you describe this Monsieur Champeaux to me?
26593Will you forgive me?
26593Will you forgive me?
26593Will you marry me? 26593 Will you never come, so that I may tell you how base and vile you are?"
26593With the good old padre there? 26593 Wo n''t you come along with me to the colonel''s?"
26593Women beat the devil, do n''t they? 26593 Wonder how he guessed I was from the States?"
26593Wonder how she got here?
26593Words? 26593 Would it relieve your eye any?"
26593Would you know him again?
26593Would you like me if I were a tame cat?
26593Would you like to make five hundred francs?
26593Would you mind telling Mr. Harrigan that I wish to see him?
26593Would you spare me a glass of wine? 26593 You are n''t a suitor, are you?
26593You are on the stage?
26593You are really going to start a search?
26593You are studying for the opera, perhaps?
26593You believe in the tenets of Christianity?
26593You called?
26593You do n''t mean to say that you are going to settle down and get married?
26593You do not wish to see me spattered over the beautiful isle?
26593You gave him my address?
26593You recognize the gentleman?
26593You say bah?
26593You suggested it to some one else?
26593You take two lumps?
26593You, too, Abby?
26593Your friend, then, is quite a hero?
26593Your hat, Monsieur?
26593_ Pouf!_ For ten minutes?
26593_ Verdampt!_ Do I believe my ears?
26593*****"Am I all right?"
26593... perhaps gladly?
26593A little green pebble like this?"
26593Abduction?
26593Afraid of women?"
26593Ah, Nora, Nora, who have everything to give and yet give nothing, why do you play so heartless a game?
26593Ah, but had she been happy?
26593Ah, can you forgive me?"
26593Ah, he thought: then she was n''t so sure?
26593Ah, why did you run away?
26593Am I making myself clear?"
26593An accepted suitor?"
26593An adventure?
26593And but for the cowardice of the man, who knows what might have happened?
26593And now that my identity is established, who are you and what do you want at this time of night?"
26593And now, will you please tell Carlos to bring my dinner to my room?"
26593And say, what do you think?
26593And who was he?
26593And why not?
26593And you are not afraid to let me go?"
26593Are my clothes laid out?
26593Are you really in trouble?
26593Are your associates all loyal to you?
26593At luncheon Harrigan innocently threw a bomb into camp by inquiring:"Say, Nora, who''s this chump Herr Rosen?
26593At whose bidding had she followed him?
26593Before all the world?
26593Besides, of what use was friendship if not to be tried?
26593Break her spirit?
26593But I have your word that you are in nowise concerned?
26593But from where?"
26593But on the stage you are still Flora Desimone?"
26593But two years?
26593But what are we going to do?
26593But what of the pretty woman in the Taverne Royale?
26593But what the deuce_ is_ the matter with this foreground?"
26593But who can help loving Nora?"
26593But who could this blond stranger be who appeared so sinisterly in the two scenes?
26593But who was this fellow in the Bavarian hat, who patrolled the sidewalk?
26593But, I say; recall the argument we had before you went to Paris?"
26593CHAPTER II THERE IS A WOMAN?
26593CHAPTER XVII THE BALL AT THE VILLA"Do you know the Duchessa?"
26593Came the voice again:"Will you give me her address, please?
26593Can you beat it?
26593Can you beat it?
26593Celeste Fournier''s statement?
26593Come, come; what do you care?
26593Come, now, Celeste; does he look dissipated?"
26593Could it be true?
26593Courtlandt?"
26593Did Nora see him?
26593Did he know?
26593Did he understand?
26593Did she send you after me?
26593Did you see her?"
26593Did you see the way he hiked by me when I let him in?
26593Did you throw some flowers out of the window?"
26593Do n''t you know that you ca n''t go on whipping every man you take a dislike to?"
26593Do n''t you know, mother mine, that every rung is sawn by envy and greed, and that those who climb highest fall farthest?"
26593Do n''t you remember how you used to write them on blue paper?
26593Do you know that your French is very good?"
26593Do you mean to tell me that you have come here to arrange a duel?"
26593Eh, what?"
26593From where had he come?
26593Get me?"
26593Go to bed, to turn and roll till dawn?
26593Guns shipshape?
26593Had Nora forgotten to inquire?
26593Had the artist tried his luck and lost?
26593Hang the picture; what am I going to do with it?"
26593Have they been after you?"
26593Have you not read the scandalous innuendoes in the newspapers?
26593Have you read the article in the newspapers regarding the disappearance of Signorina da Toscana, the singer?"
26593Have you realized the annoyances, the embarrassments, you have thrust upon me by your pursuit?
26593Having a good time?"
26593He questioned, rather amusedly, what would have happened had he gone down to the main hall that night in Paris?
26593He should have fought every inch of the way...."Monsieur is lonely?"
26593How about a little peg, as the colonel says?"
26593How do I know that you are not a gentlemanly thief?
26593How does he keep his beard combed that way?"
26593How long has this infatuation been going on?"
26593How long have you known the Harrigans?"
26593How many times had the old man called out to him to wake up and move?
26593How then should he pass the night, since none of his schemes could possibly be put into operation?
26593How''s that?"
26593Huh?"
26593I thought you were in the Orient?"
26593I wonder why she never sings_ Carmen_?"
26593If you throw that cup, my tigress....""Well?"
26593In heaven''s name, why ca n''t they let me be?"
26593In other words, you believe our chances equal?"
26593In the present instance, how was he to know that his tigress had found in the man below something to play with?
26593Is it possible that Nora may care a little for me?"
26593Is it true?"
26593Is it your suggestion that I drop the investigation?"
26593Is my English getting away from you?"
26593Is there any jealousy?"
26593Is there anything I can do... barring the taxicab?"
26593Is there no one who might wish you worry and inconvenience?
26593It''s a great world, is n''t it, where they toss us around like dice?
26593Jealousy?
26593Know what I think?
26593Luggage attended to?
26593Nearly every one had heard of his exploits; but who among them knew anything of the real man, so adroitly hidden under unruffled externals?
26593No news from Paris?"
26593No?
26593Nora had sent her to follow him; why then all this bitterness, since she had not been told where he had gone?
26593Now, how could he send away Herr Rosen if that gentleman had really preferred to stay?"
26593Now, how in the old Harry am I going to get across without killing some one?"
26593Now, where have I seen his phiz before?
26593Old Silenus offend you?"
26593Only one bit of puzzlement: why had n''t the blond stranger appeared?
26593Or was it some one she knew and against whom she did not wish to bring any charges?
26593Return to his hotel and smoke himself headachy?
26593Rumpus is another word for abduction?
26593See that Indian, passing the cakes?
26593She will never approach your Carmen....""You praise her to me?"
26593So that was Edward Courtlandt?
26593So that was it?
26593So this was Nora''s father?
26593So you have found that out?"
26593So, how was a man to know the right approach to her variant moods?
26593Some of your dusky princesses give you the go- by?"
26593Supposing you and I run back after dinner and hide in the card- room, which is right across from the dining- room?
26593Take him over, into the enemy''s camp?
26593Tea at the colonel''s?
26593The engagement to dine with the Barone?
26593The sentiment in you which should be developed....""Is mercy?"
26593There Is a Woman?
26593There was a catch in the laugh which followed, but Harrigan''s ear was not trained for these subtleties of sound,"How are you making out?"
26593They talked of the daring of the American woman: who but a Frenchwoman would have dared what she had this night?
26593Think; have you not some enemy?
26593To hide in the car?
26593To which do you refer?"
26593To whom do you belong?"
26593Try to become interested in a novel?
26593Want me to bring up the checkers?"
26593Was I not abducted in the heart of Paris?
26593Was he not his own master?
26593Was he one of those mad fools who had fallen in love with her, and had become desperate?
26593Was his attitude pretense or innocence?
26593Was it possible that he had roused her enmity simply because he had made it evident that her charms did not interest him?
26593Was n''t he just dreaming?
26593Was n''t it all a nightmare out of which he would presently awake?
26593Was there some one else?
26593Well, why not?
26593Were you ever hunted by money?"
26593What about her?
26593What did he care?
26593What did she want of him?
26593What do I know about you?
26593What do you care what strangers think or say?
26593What do you make of that?"
26593What do you think I found?"
26593What do you think?
26593What had kept him away that long?
26593What has he been saying to you?"
26593What if the father had been a fighter for prizes?
26593What if the mother was possessed with a misguided desire to shine socially?
26593What in heaven''s name made you come?"
26593What is loneliness?"
26593What is wrong?"
26593What mattered it if her own heart ached so she might soothe the hurt in his?
26593What might this mean?
26593What mischief are you plotting now?"
26593What more could the agent say?
26593What plans have you made in regard to the search?"
26593What was going to happen to the peace of this bucolic spot?
26593What was he like?"
26593What was it?
26593What was it?
26593What was the matter with Nora''s voice?
26593What were you doing down there?"
26593What were you glooming about?
26593What would you say it was worth?"
26593What''ll we do with the other beggar?"
26593What''s it about?"
26593What''s the answer?"
26593What''s the matter with sicking the Barone on him?
26593What''s the name of that book?"
26593What''s the use of beating about the bush?
26593What''s your plan?"
26593When you kissed me... did n''t you know that I kissed you back?
26593Where are you now?"
26593Where did you pick him up?"
26593Where did you pick up the grouch?
26593Where had her father met him, and what diabolical stroke of fate had made him bring this man up here?
26593Where the dickens did it come from?"
26593Where was this going to end, and what was it all about?
26593Where''s the colonel to- night?
26593Who are you?
26593Who cared?
26593Who knows?"
26593Who was he, in truth, and what had been his game?
26593Who was he?"
26593Who would be the stronger, Nora or this provoking man?
26593Who would n''t be, after such an experience?"
26593Who''s his second; Courtlandt?"
26593Who''s the Italian?"
26593Who?"
26593Why did n''t you call the police?"
26593Why did you not pursue me, importune me until I wearied?
26593Why do n''t you go home and settle down and marry?--and keep that phiz of yours out of the newspapers?
26593Why do n''t you hire a private secretary to handle your affairs?"
26593Why had Nora refused to explain about the pistol- shot?
26593Why have n''t they moved?
26593Why hurt those who can no more help loving you than the earth can help whirling around the calm dispassionate sun?
26593Why not put aside your brushes for a week?"
26593Why not?
26593Why on earth did she want this execrable daub?
26593Why the deuce was n''t he himself big and strong, silent and purposeful, instead of being a dawdling fool of an artist?
26593Why was n''t he going?
26593Why, then, had he not spoken at the photographer''s?
26593Why?"
26593Will Mademoiselle be pleased to remember that we have treated her with the utmost courtesy?"
26593Will you let me use your pad and pen for a minute?"
26593Will you make me your wife legally?
26593Will you risk the anger and the iron hand of your father for my sake?"
26593Will you surrender, for the sake of this love you profess, your right to a great inheritance?
26593Wonder how this news will harness up with her social bug?"
26593Would Monsieur like anything to eat?
26593You exercise?"
26593You have n''t gone and made a fool of yourself, have you?"
26593You were talking of Da Toscana?
26593You will not hinder me if I walk through that door?"
26593You would n''t mind going back to the ballroom alone, would you?
26593You''re Mr. Harrigan, are n''t you?"
26593You''re at the Grand?"
26593Your dance?
26593_ Benedicite?_"smiling.
26593_ Mon Dieu_, what is it?"
26593_ Peste!_ Who cares for words no one really ever understands?
26593while they are dancing?"
26593wild?"
26593would you see frost grow upon the toreador''s mustache?
40844''A friend of mine?''
40844''About you?''
40844''Ah?
40844''All right?''
40844''Am I to proceed to Venice at once, sir?''
40844''Am I?
40844''An hour?''
40844''And Lady Maud?''
40844''And what will become of Spiro?''
40844''And what would happen if I told you not to follow me, but to go home and lie down in your kennel?''
40844''And you like her, do n''t you?''
40844''Any heads broken?''
40844''Are they really?''
40844''Are they?
40844''Are you a lunatic?''
40844''Are you going on Mr. Van Torp''s yacht?''
40844''Are you ill, dear?''
40844''Are you ill, dear?''"
40844''Are you ill, dear?''"]
40844''Are you in earnest?''
40844''Are you publishing the bans?
40844''Are you quite, quite sure you did not pay for it?''
40844''Are you trying to quarrel with me?''
40844''Are you very thirsty yet?''
40844''As it might be, at the telephone?''
40844''Auto-- what did you say?''
40844''Beg pardon, ma''am?''
40844''Brushing up what?
40844''But I can''t----''''She''s a nice girl, is n''t she?''
40844''But about myself-- if Leven is alive, what is my position-- I mean-- I do n''t really quite know where I am, do I?''
40844''But how do you know that is my window?''
40844''But how do you know, sir?''
40844''But how in the world do you expect to get one now?
40844''But if he will not be my husband, what can I do, if I do not kill him?''
40844''But what in the world is the use of knowing it?
40844''But you had n''t examined mine thoroughly before it was stolen, had you?
40844''But you will dine, sir?''
40844''By the way,''said Mr. Van Torp without apparent interest,''I hope Madame Cordova is quite well?
40844''Can I?''
40844''Can you describe her?''
40844''Can you tell me,''she asked,''whose motor car it was that passed about ten minutes ago, and made so much noise?''
40844''Cook''s office?
40844''Dead?
40844''Did I frighten you?
40844''Did I not know you for a man of little faith?''
40844''Did Potts not tell you, my dear?
40844''Did n''t I hear four bells go just after you called me?''
40844''Did she mention his name to you?''
40844''Did you ever kill anybody, Miss Fanny?''
40844''Did you ever meet Lady Maud?''
40844''Did you ever read a fairy story about a mouse that could turn into a tiger when it liked?''
40844''Did you ever see that done better?''
40844''Did you get anything decent to eat?''
40844''Did you notice anything unusual about Lady Maud when you saw her?''
40844''Did you really?
40844''Did you see any one else on the yacht?''
40844''Did you tell him that Mrs. Rushmore and I would come?''
40844''Do you feel faint?
40844''Do you know of any reason why the marriage should not take place?''
40844''Do you mean me?''
40844''Do you mean the trouble you were in last spring?''
40844''Do you mean to say that you have settled all that between you already?''
40844''Do you mean to say that you would like a show wedding in Hanover Square?''
40844''Do you mean to say that-- that there is any hope?''
40844''Do you mean to say,''asked the surprised jeweller,''that you had bought it without thoroughly examining it, sir-- you who are an expert?''
40844''Do you really not know what that music is?''
40844''Do you really think you can deceive me any longer?''
40844''Do you really, really, really mean it?''
40844''Do you see any harm in that?
40844''Do you see anything?''
40844''Do you suppose you could stick it on fresh every day, the way they do for the stage?''
40844''Do you think you could possibly be mistaken about a voice, if you did n''t see the person who was speaking?''
40844''Do you want me to go away if she arrives?''
40844''Does she really?''
40844''Dreadful?
40844''Eh?
40844''Even if"home"is a bachelor establishment?''
40844''Feel better now?''
40844''Form?
40844''Got any like that, young man?
40844''Got her?''
40844''Harm?
40844''Has anything happened?''
40844''Has he found lodgings, or is he going to sleep in his motor?''
40844''Has he left no address?
40844''Has she offended you?''
40844''Have I done anything you do n''t like?''
40844''Have I wings?
40844''Have I?''
40844''Have you a good seat?''
40844''Have you forgotten it already?''
40844''Have you really seen the girl?''
40844''Have you really sold out all your interest in it?''
40844''Have you really?''
40844''He is not in London?''
40844''He was the gentleman with the big fair beard, I suppose?
40844''Here?''
40844''Hot water?
40844''How are you?''
40844''How can I do this before you?''
40844''How did you find out she was a girl?''
40844''How did you know that I love roses above all other flowers?''
40844''How long?''
40844''I have n''t got such a thing, have I?
40844''I mean his form-- or her form----''''Oh, her figure?
40844''I mean, do you think you could take a man''s voice for a woman''s at a distance?''
40844''I mean,''said Van Torp, when he was already fastening his collar,''are you sea- sick nowadays?''
40844''I mean,''she asked after some time,''shall we be there to- morrow?
40844''I presume that you had my letter?
40844''I say, Mr. Johnson,''he asked,''have we got a barber- shop on board this ship?''
40844''I suppose Lady Maud will come, wo n''t she?''
40844''I suppose you''re ready at any moment, Captain?''
40844''I suppose, though, that when you put them out they did n''t exactly want to go, did they?''
40844''I wonder what on earth you''re up to, young lady?''
40844''I''ve almost persuaded them all to run down to Venice, and I want to know why you wo n''t come too?''
40844''I?''
40844''I?''
40844''I?''
40844''If I do n''t give any reason, am I ever afterwards to hold my peace?''
40844''If you find him, what shall you say to him?''
40844''In what way, ma''am?''
40844''Indeed?
40844''Indeed?''
40844''Is it so hard to believe?''
40844''Is it time?''
40844''Is it?''
40844''Is she really very pretty?''
40844''Is she tall?''
40844''Is she very dreadful?''
40844''Is she, now?
40844''Is that fair?''
40844''Is that the place?''
40844''Is that the_ Erinna_, Captain?''
40844''Is that what you call her?''
40844''Is that your teacher?''
40844''Is this sea always so still?''
40844''It wants a name, does n''t it?''
40844''It''s not really quite so bad as that, is it?''
40844''Lions?''
40844''Margaret, why did you never tell me of this?
40844''May I ask whether, as Miss Donne''s oldest friend, you would look favourably on my proposal, supposing she were free?''
40844''May I present Count Kralinsky?''
40844''May I speak quite frankly, though we hardly know each other?''
40844''My dear child,''she asked,''what in the world is the matter?
40844''My own name?
40844''Nice voice, has n''t she?''
40844''Not feeling very well?''
40844''Now what did they say, if it is n''t a rude question?''
40844''Now, see here, have I done anything you consider unfair to make this happen?
40844''Oh, he does, does he?''
40844''Oh, he is, is he?''
40844''Oh, he''s George, is he?
40844''Oh, no,''answered Lady Maud, who was used to Mr. Van Torp''s familiar vocabulary,''why need there be any trouble?
40844''Oh, they''ve turned us out, have they?
40844''Oh,''mused Mr. Van Torp,''is that so?
40844''Oh-- was that the way it happened?''
40844''Or was it five?''
40844''Perhaps,''she said,''you would rather not go out just yet, my dear?''
40844''Potts,''she began again at last,''you are not very imaginative, are you?''
40844''Pray, is"learning Tartar"a matter of business?''
40844''Really, really?''
40844''Really?
40844''Really?
40844''Really?
40844''Really?
40844''Really?
40844''Reporter?''
40844''Seems a long time, does n''t it?''
40844''Shall I get you some more hot toast, sir?''
40844''Shall I sign first?''
40844''Shall I speak as a Frank?
40844''Shall I?
40844''Shall we keep some tea for Countess Leven?''
40844''Shall we shake hands on it?''
40844''Six, sir?''
40844''So you''re a friend of Mr. Logotheti''s, and he advised you to come to me?
40844''Sold the Nickel Trust?''
40844''Stemp, where have you put the Count?
40844''Stemp,''he asked, as he threw off his coat and kicked off his dusty shoes,''were you ever sea- sick?''
40844''Stemp,''he said, before leaving the cabin,''have you heard from the Count?''
40844''Stemp,''he said,''is this the correct thing?
40844''Stomach upset?''
40844''Sure?''
40844''Take his beard off, sir, you mean?''
40844''Tell me,''he said after a time,''if it were the portion of Kralinsky to be gathered to his fathers before you saw him, what would you do?''
40844''That ruby, now-- I suppose it''s to be cut for you, is n''t it?''
40844''The girl is in London, you say?''
40844''The_ Sea- Mew_?''
40844''Then if-- if he should call this afternoon, or even to- morrow-- may I tell them to say that you are out?''
40844''Then why did you tell the Tartar girl that your name was George?''
40844''Then you''d really be in a bad fix, would n''t you?
40844''There, Margaret,''said Mrs. Rushmore triumphantly,''what did I tell you?
40844''This is purely a matter of business between us,''she said,''you understand that?
40844''Toast?
40844''Told you?
40844''Truly?
40844''Venice, you say?
40844''Venice?''
40844''Well, if there were?
40844''Well, now, do you suppose you can get anything to eat in Italy?''
40844''Well, why should you?
40844''Well,''he said, advancing the last step after that momentary pause, and taking the white hand in both his own,''how have you been?
40844''Well,''he said, standing still and looking into the beautiful imploring eyes,''what on earth do you want now, Miss Barrack?
40844''Well?''
40844''Were you ever told that you looked like him?''
40844''What are you thinking about?''
40844''What became of Count Kralinsky?
40844''What became of him?''
40844''What can I do to help you?''
40844''What comedy?
40844''What do you advise me to do?''
40844''What do you mean?''
40844''What do you suppose that fellow wants, now, Stemp?
40844''What happened next?
40844''What happened?''
40844''What has happened?''
40844''What if Mrs. Rushmore comes in just as we are signing it?''
40844''What in the world has got into you?''
40844''What is it?
40844''What is it?''
40844''What is it?''
40844''What is it?''
40844''What is the gentleman''s name?''
40844''What is the oath, that I may swear it?
40844''What is this thing, anyway?
40844''What made you say what you did to Mrs. Rushmore yesterday afternoon?''
40844''What sort of voice has your brother?
40844''What were you called?''
40844''What will you eat, and what will you drink?''
40844''What''s the matter with you anyhow?''
40844''What''s the nearest sea- port to Bayreuth, Bavaria?''
40844''What?''
40844''What?''
40844''When shall I come back, sir?''
40844''When shall we reach that place?''
40844''Where are we bound, sir?''
40844''Where are we going?''
40844''Where is Ivan?''
40844''Where is the man?''
40844''Whereabouts is port, right or left?''
40844''Which Lady Maud?''
40844''Which way?''
40844''Who has seen mines of rubies?
40844''Who is she?
40844''Why a pity?
40844''Why did you come out again, if you were in fear?''
40844''Why did you run to the mouth of the cave when you saw me, if the man is dead?''
40844''Why do n''t you come and take dinner with me some night?''
40844''Why do you ask me this?
40844''Why do you laugh?''
40844''Why do you laugh?''
40844''Why should I?
40844''Why should any one be afraid of me?''
40844''Why?''
40844''Will you join us?''
40844''Will you kindly give a message to Miss Donne from me?''
40844''Wo n''t you go in and get a biscuit, or a sandwich?''
40844''Wo n''t you let me send for something?
40844''Wo n''t you take it now?''
40844''Would that be too little, do you think?''
40844''Yes, ma''am?''
40844''You could do quite a great deal of good with that, could n''t you?''
40844''You do n''t mean to say you''ve come right through?''
40844''You do n''t think Mr. Van Torp drinks, do you, my dear?''
40844''You have sold the Nickel Trust?''
40844''You know it?''
40844''You know our friend Monsieur Logotheti, I believe?''
40844''You marked it, sir?
40844''You say you knew the late Count Leven?''
40844''You say you make noises you like?''
40844''You want my blessing, do you, Miss Barrack?
40844''You''d like to have his address, would you, Miss Barrack?
40844''You''re not joking?
40844A good useful dog generally is, is n''t he?
40844About that?
40844Allow that?''
40844Already?''
40844Am I an evil sight in a man''s eyes?
40844Am I an evil sight, or poor, that I should go down to the grave childless?
40844Am I crooked, am I blinded by the smallpox, or have I six fingers on both hands and a hump on my shoulder like the Witch of Altai?
40844And coffee too?
40844And if they do have terrible fits of temper now and then, who shall blame them?
40844And now, tell me,''he lowered his voice a little more,''is that man Leven, or not?''
40844And what''s his dead brother''s name again, please?''
40844And you think that my father''s daughter would open her heart''s treasure to one of her servants?
40844And, please, what is"stock"in such a case?''
40844Any other question?
40844Anyhow, as it''s a mere matter of business connected with your career, you wo n''t mind my explaining it to you, will you?''
40844Anyhow, will you come if they do?
40844Anything else to- day?''
40844Are you equally sure that she would be miserable with me?
40844Are you going to have a regular knock- down- and- drag- out smash at St. George''s?
40844Are you sure of that?''
40844At all low- down?''
40844Beg pardon, sir, but do you think it would cost a great deal?''
40844Besides, supposing that the language was really Tartar-- were there not Russians who spoke it?
40844But I''m not defending myself-- how could I?
40844But if such a thing happened, should you wish to go back to your own people?
40844But there might be a fairy story about that, might n''t there?''
40844But this is certainly the man you met in New York and who sold you the stone you gave me, is he not?''
40844But what was that compared with the pedigree of the little thing in a blue serge frock?
40844Did you buy anything of her?''
40844Did you think I was in America?
40844Do I know her?''
40844Do I look like a human being again?''
40844Do n''t think me too awfully cheeky, will you?''
40844Do n''t you know that the seats for_ Parsifal_ are all taken months beforehand?''
40844Do n''t you understand?
40844Do n''t you want to go with me?''
40844Do you believe it is possible to have all that?''
40844Do you believe she''ll be miserable with Logotheti or not?''
40844Do you feel as if you were going to have a fit?
40844Do you happen to know anything about a yacht called the_ Erinna_, belonging to a Mr. Logotheti, a Greek gentleman who lives in Paris?''
40844Do you know anything about her?''
40844Do you know the colour of Alderney cream when it''s ready to be skimmed?
40844Do you know what I mean?''
40844Do you mean only Margaret and that nice old friend of hers-- Mrs. Patmore, is n''t she?
40844Do you mean that?''
40844Do you mean to say you understand her language?''
40844Do you mind telling me how old she is?''
40844Do you mind very much if I go to bed?
40844Do you mind?''
40844Do you never look at your face in the mirror?
40844Do you not forward his letters to him?''
40844Do you not see why I want him for a husband?
40844Do you see?
40844Do you sing at all?''
40844Do you suppose he thinks I speak his heathen language?
40844Do you think I am afraid to meet him?''
40844Do you think I could be as bad as that?
40844Do you think you can read my writing?
40844Do you think you could steer a boat now?
40844Do you think you might?''
40844Do you understand all these things?''
40844Do you understand me?
40844Do you understand me?
40844Do you understand?''
40844Do you understand?''
40844Even teeth?''
40844Ever been in a first- class dairy?
40844Ever hear that name?''
40844Fair to middling?
40844Far from here?
40844Find anything good to eat?
40844Formality?
40844Good scheme, is n''t it?''
40844Got any more like this?
40844Had Logotheti established any claim on her but that of constancy?
40844Had the captain of the cutter seen or heard of English yacht_ Erinna_?''
40844Had you any reason for not telling me?''
40844Has she nice hair?
40844Has she nice hands?''
40844Have I not come across the world from the Altai, by Samarkand and Tiflis, as far as England, to find him and marry him?
40844Have the women another religion than the men?
40844Have you a voice too?
40844Have you any entanglement with another woman from which you feel that you''re not perfectly free?
40844Have you been out this afternoon, Miss Donne?''
40844Have you got a new railway in Brazil, or an overland route to the other side of beyond?''
40844Have you got another?''
40844Have you heard from Monsieur Logotheti to- day?''
40844Have you known many Greeks, may I ask?''
40844Have you thought of anything else?''
40844Have you written your telegram?
40844He never asked about the principle on which any invention was founded; his first and only question was,''Will it work?''
40844Her hair?
40844How about chickens?''
40844How can I tell?
40844How can you deny it?
40844How could he be sure that one customer might like another to know about a ring ordered for a lady?
40844How could he tell but that she had brought him to an ambush where he was to be murdered for the sake of his money and his good weapon?
40844How could nature''s meaning be put into words?
40844How could she be sure that it was not modern Greek, or Turkish?
40844How could they know the difference in a London Police Court?
40844How does it strike you?
40844How does that strike you?
40844How is Margaret?''
40844How is Mrs. Rushmore?
40844How long do you count on being in London this time?
40844How long does it take to grow a beard like Count Kralinsky''s?''
40844How long will it take, Captain?''
40844How old is he?''
40844How the dickens should I know where they are, madam?
40844How''s that?
40844I came by Boulogne-- decent of me, was n''t it?
40844I do n''t suppose you''re going to get up in church and forbid the banns, are you?''
40844I do not call that very frank, do you?''
40844I have suffered all these things to find him, and if I come to him at last, and he will not be my husband, shall he live and take another woman?
40844I hope you do n''t mind my telling you?''
40844I hope you''re not offended?''
40844I see no land on this side; is there any on the other?''
40844I suppose he ca n''t run away from us now, can he?''
40844I suppose he really is, is n''t he?''
40844I suppose we can send the naphtha launch for him if we stop, ca n''t we?''
40844I suppose you''ll let me say that I''ve got the business ability, wo n''t you?''
40844I will spend a thousand pounds or two-- is that enough?
40844I wonder what would happen if I asked him about Miss Barrack?''
40844I''m certain he''s not old Levi Longlegs, and if he''s not Leven, who on earth is he?
40844I''m not a very nervous person, you know, am I?
40844If Margaret marries you, shall you want her to leave the stage?''
40844If that is not caprice, what is it?''
40844If we''re not mistaken, what can I do to help you?
40844If you drop your parasol towards her you can get the letters out, ca n''t you?
40844If you were forced to choose one of us yourself, which would you take?
40844Is it a very solemn oath?''
40844Is it because he is dead, and you are afraid to tell me?''
40844Is it not like the tusk of a young elephant?
40844Is it nothing that I have done, a Tartar girl alone, with no friend but a bag of precious stones that any strong thief might have taken from me?
40844Is it nothing that I have gone about like a shameless one, with my face uncovered, dressed in a man''s clothes?
40844Is n''t he, Maud?''
40844Is n''t that enough to marry on when there''s everything else?
40844Is n''t that so?''
40844Is that correct, do you think?''
40844Is that it?''
40844Is that right?''
40844Is that so?''
40844Is the danger nothing?
40844Is there anything I can say or do?
40844It means nothing else?''
40844It was driven through somebody else''s hat on the other side of the street, was n''t it, Miss Donne?
40844It was mean of me, was n''t it?
40844It wo n''t be hard for you to look at it in that light, will it?
40844Let me see-- there''s a thing you move----''''The rudder?''
40844Margaret, what do you suppose Mr. Van Torp wants hot water for at this extraordinary hour?''
40844Mowle?''
40844No fault in that line of reasoning, is there?''
40844No?
40844Not the thin mud- broth of the Franks?''
40844Nothing serious, I trust?''
40844Or as they speak in Constantinople?''
40844Or is there any reproach upon me?
40844Or my stage name?''
40844Or something iced?
40844Or to quote torrents of Pindar''s deep- mouthed song, if you had not the constancy to run one little race to the end without swerving aside?
40844Or would you learn to speak the Frank and live in Europe?''
40844Progress works both ways, up and down, does n''t it?
40844Real coffee?
40844Really, that would be rather smart, would n''t it?''
40844Rushmore?''
40844Rushmore?''
40844See his walk?
40844See how he turns his toes in?
40844See what I mean?''
40844See?
40844See?
40844See?
40844See?''
40844See?''
40844See?''
40844Seen the cook?''
40844Settled that yet?''
40844Shall I betray him?''
40844Shall I go in?''
40844Shall I have it mounted for you?''
40844Shall I prick my hand and let the drops fall into your two hands that you may drink them?
40844Shall I take Allah, and the Prophet, and the Angel Israfil to witness that I will keep my word?
40844Shall I tell my heart to my handmaid, and my secret thoughts to a hired man?
40844Shall I throw him out, sir?''
40844Shall we?''
40844She is some one from Constantinople, is n''t she?
40844Sounds Polish, does n''t it?''
40844Tea?
40844Tell me more about yourself, wo n''t you?''
40844That I have been called a thief?
40844That I have been in an English prison?
40844That I have cut my hair, my beautiful black hair, is that as nothing too?
40844That is n''t"exercising undue influence,"I suppose?''
40844That stone I gave you, I swear I do n''t know that it''s not glass-- anyhow, that stone, does it look at all like the one that was stolen?''
40844That would not help you to rest, would it?''
40844The travel nothing?
40844The usual thing?''
40844Then do you think that their King would not have been glad if I had given him the ruby as a gift?
40844There''s no other explanation, and it''s not a very flattering one, is it?''
40844They say that because the Trojans had to work so hard to get over the Alps coming down into Italy, do n''t they?''
40844They told her that ladies with champagne hair were not always good ladies; but what did that matter?
40844They want us to come up with them, do you see?''
40844Three or four days, maybe?''
40844Two, three, four, twenty-- what did it matter?
40844Understand, Captain?''
40844Understand?
40844Understand?
40844Was it so very unlikely that some charming compatriot of his should have come from Constantinople to spend a few weeks in Paris?
40844Was my portion a cotton shift, one brass bangle and a horn comb for my hair?
40844Was not the affair of the Ascot Cup, a much more difficult and dangerous theft, still fresh in every one''s memory?
40844Was she not her own mistress?
40844We shall be quite a party, sha n''t we?
40844Well, now, that''s a funny sort of a rule for a hotel, is n''t it?''
40844What about that?''
40844What availed it to possess in memory the passionate love- roses of Sappho''s heart, if you would not follow her to the Leucadian cliff?
40844What can anybody find to do in London at this time of year?''
40844What did you once tell me was the name of his yacht?''
40844What do you say?''
40844What does he come bothering me for?
40844What had any one to say, if she chose to change her mind and take the stronger man, supposing that she took either?
40844What happened?''
40844What in the world shall you do with yourself?''
40844What is he doing?
40844What is it?
40844What of it?''
40844What shall I do and say?
40844What sort of work are you doing?
40844What was the life of a wild hill- girl compared with his?
40844What was the thing you were going to ask?''
40844What was the''interpretation''of a storm, of an earthquake, or of winter and summer?
40844What were small refinements of speech and culture, compared with wide- reaching power?
40844What will he say?''
40844What would they say in the street if they saw me now, as a woman?
40844What''s the good?''
40844What''s the matter with you, anyway?
40844What?''
40844When is it to be?
40844When would the young lady try on the things?
40844When you found out she was a girl, how did she strike you?''
40844Where did you get her, and what is her name?
40844Where in the world did you learn it?
40844Where is the Pastor going to sleep, now that the philanthropist has bought him out?''
40844Where is the telegraph?
40844Where shall I have it taken, sir?''
40844Where''s she hiding from you?''
40844Where?
40844Which of us will make the best husband for an English girl?
40844Who is E. Sharp, anyway?
40844Who is this Eastern woman?
40844Why did he not desire me for his wife?
40844Why did you never tell me?''
40844Why do n''t we build a theatre together?
40844Why do you ask?
40844Why do you laugh at me?
40844Why do you look so surprised?
40844Why do you talk?
40844Why in the world do you want to take them there?''
40844Why is this?
40844Why not"teapot,"or"rocking- horse,"or anything else that''s appropriate?''
40844Why should I say it again?
40844Why should I still live, then?''
40844Why should n''t you stay?''
40844Why should she walk mile upon mile like that?
40844Why should they speak when they can hold their peace?
40844Why should you ever meet a Tartar?
40844Why should you?
40844Why?''
40844Will Gula know how to fasten the fine dresses at the back, do you think?''
40844Will that do?
40844Will that do?''
40844Will that do?''
40844Will there be any more ladies and gentlemen, sir?''
40844Will you do that?
40844Will you go if I do?
40844Will you kindly have me put ashore before you start again?
40844Will you kindly tell me where he is?''
40844Will you take it?''
40844Will you tell her that?''
40844Will you?''
40844Will you?''
40844Will you?''
40844With the man who speaks English for him, I suppose, sir?''
40844Wo n''t you answer me?''
40844Wo n''t you let me hear the tune that irritated your neighbour the pianist?
40844Would Monsieur Logotheti stay to dinner?
40844Would that be enough?
40844Would you be sea- sick on a steam yacht?''
40844Would you rather I had n''t?''
40844You can go on to the Mediterranean without coaling, can you not?''
40844You do n''t think it was unfair to offer to build a theatre and call it after her, do you?
40844You just attend to that, will you?
40844You mean that I used to be very disagreeable, do n''t you?''
40844You merely guessed it was a girl in boy''s clothes?''
40844You only had that one look at him, through the window, is that so?''
40844You really will help me with my gown, wo n''t you?
40844You see, I did n''t know anything about all this, and that makes it meaner still, does n''t it?''
40844You take an interest in her, I suppose, Mr. Logotheti?
40844You taught me to say"better,"did n''t you?''
40844You went for a little walk to get some air?''
40844You wo n''t, will you?''
40844You''re not laughing at me?''
40844You''re sure you''re right, I suppose?
40844You''ve not promised yet, any more than you did last night when he was there and we talked about it, so how could I?
40844[ Illustration:"''What has happened?''
40844[ Illustration:"''You want my blessing, do you, Miss Barrack?''"]
40844and if you know where they are, why should you show them to me?
40844or are we thinking of the same thing?''
40844or the next day?
40844she cried in great distress,''what have you done?''
16427''Rather nice''?
16427Adrienne? 16427 All right?"
16427Am I late? 16427 Am I taking too much from you, Diana?
16427An enemy? 16427 And I suppose it had n''t occurred to you that this is a spring tide?"
16427And I?
16427And did you persuade your-- fellow angel-- to sing to you?
16427And do you regret it? 16427 And have I no claim?
16427And his moods vary considerably, do n''t they?
16427And must he, too, reap your sowing? 16427 And must you?
16427And one you can not answer?
16427And was he pleased at the prospect?
16427And what exactly did you think my object was?
16427And what has our-- supposititious-- unhappiness to do with you, Signor Baroni?
16427And whom have I to thank for that? 16427 And why not pamper them a bit, poor souls?
16427And why not?
16427And why-- why have you come to me-- now?
16427And would n''t Diana, too, be silent for your sake?
16427And you expect me still to feel the same towards you, I suppose? 16427 And you think it right to let her marry you in ignorance?"
16427And you wish to add Mees Quentin to the list?
16427And you-- what is it you want?
16427And''if''you_ can not_ remain in England, if you haf to go back--_there_? 16427 And-- and Adrienne?
16427And-- and must you see so much of her now? 16427 Any one from this part of the world?"
16427Are you Miss Quentin--_the_ Miss Quentin? 16427 Are you busy, Max?"
16427Are you going''parishing''this morning?
16427Are you hurt? 16427 Are you implying now that Max is going about under a false name?
16427Are you ready?
16427Are you sure it will be quite all right? 16427 Are you surprised to see me?"
16427Are you-- angry with me?
16427At Baroni''s?
16427Better now?
16427Better? 16427 Brutton Square?"
16427But I thought that your people had plenty of money?
16427But am I to regard you as an enemy to my marriage, too? 16427 But do you then call yourself an_ artiste_?"
16427But supposing I did n''t wake at the right time?
16427But surely-- won''t they go to Red Gables?
16427But what haf you been doing during the holidays?
16427But what shall we do? 16427 But why you?
16427But why-- why do you tell me this?
16427But why? 16427 But why?
16427But you see the difficulty? 16427 But you wo n''t commit yourself so far as to say that I have your approval-- even once?"
16427But-- about Max and Diana?
16427But-- but why?
16427Ca n''t I help, Di?
16427Ca n''t I help?
16427Ca n''t keep it?
16427Ca n''t we-- be friends?
16427Ca n''t we-- can''t we do anything? 16427 Ca n''t you believe it?"
16427Ca n''t you call on them, Pobs?
16427Ca n''t you understand?
16427Ca n''t you-- can''t you banish the shadow?
16427Can I trust you?
16427Childish?
16427Content?
16427Could n''t you-- ask the others to release you?
16427Crailing?
16427Dear, must one understand-- to love? 16427 Diana"--he spoke again, still in the same toneless voice--"am I to be forbidden even the outskirts of your life now?"
16427Diana--his voice deepened a little--"am I responsible for any of the weeds in your garden?"
16427Diana--his voice vibrated--"won''t you trust me?"
16427Diana--there was a note of strain in his voice--"which is it?
16427Diana, what has come to you? 16427 Diana,"he said tensely,"must it always remain-- the hell of memory?"
16427Did you remind him that you had met before?
16427Did you see?
16427Did you want me to sit still and do nothing while-- while that is going on just below?
16427Did you want me?
16427Did you, indeed?
16427Do I understand that you-- you actually measured the amount it contains?
16427Do n''t you think that the time for pretence and hypocrisy has gone by? 16427 Do n''t you trust her then-- the woman you''re asking to be your wife?"
16427Do n''t you want my credentials?
16427Do n''t you?
16427Do you believe that husbands and wives should have no secrets from one another?
16427Do you forget the shadow? 16427 Do you hear?"
16427Do you know him personally at all?
16427Do you live there?
16427Do you mean that you wo n''t go back now-- now that you know he has never failed you as you thought he had? 16427 Do you mean that?"
16427Do you mean this?
16427Do you mean--Diana''s eyes were suddenly apprehensive--"do you mean that he has done anything wrong-- dishonourable?"
16427Do you mean-- do you mean that Adrienne, your name, everything, is all part of-- of what you ca n''t tell me? 16427 Do you not think it strange of him?"
16427Do you really think so?
16427Do you remember I once told you I thought''The Hell of Memory''would be a more appropriate title? 16427 Do you suppose-- even if he forgave me-- that he could ever believe in me again?
16427Do you think Diana could have been offended because he came down afterwards to please Miss Gervais?
16427Do you think I''m going to stand quietly by and see our happiness wrecked?
16427Do you think-- just one-- would hurt my voice?
16427Does he propose to have any other than this one?
16427Does my unhappiness count for nothing? 16427 Drown myself?"
16427Fame?
16427Find rooms?
16427For God''s sake, what do you mean? 16427 Fretting?
16427Go back to him?
16427Has Miss Lermontof been here to- day?
16427Has he, indeed? 16427 Has n''t he ever told you anything?"
16427Has the time, then, seemed so long?
16427Have you an appointment?
16427Have you and Adrienne quarrelled?
16427Have you been back in town long, Miss Quentin?
16427Have you been to see Diana?
16427Have you felt-- anything of what that paragraph suggests?
16427Have you forgotten we''re giving a big reception here next Wednesday?
16427Have you lost your child?
16427He does n''t approve, I suppose?
16427He''s rather a mysterious person, do n''t you think?
16427He-- he must go back to the desert?
16427Heart''s dearest, have you realised that it will be very hard sometimes? 16427 How can I?"
16427How can she ever be happy-- as your wife?
16427How could I-- when the sea does n''t come up within a dozen yards of the cliff except at spring tide?
16427How could I? 16427 How d''you do?
16427How d''you do?
16427How dare you?
16427How do you do? 16427 How far on are they?"
16427How much do they know? 16427 How''s that?
16427I believe we have met before, have n''t we?
16427I shall, too, may I?--And oh, why have n''t you brought two cups? 16427 I suppose I''m damned beyond forgiveness after this?"
16427I suppose he is n''t a Russian by any chance?
16427I suppose we shall have to call on these new people at Red Gables, Dad?
16427I suppose--laughingly--"you come to congratulate me?"
16427I suppose, then, you''re a very busy person?
16427I suppose,he said slowly,"you would n''t believe me if I told you that I''m sorry-- that I''d uproot them if I could?"
16427I suppose,she said slowly,"you want me to go?"
16427I suppose-- did Max give you any further particulars?
16427I wonder if-- if a man can understand how a woman can be so cruel to what she loves?
16427I wonder--he regarded her with an expression of amused curiosity--"I wonder whether you would stoop to pick up my flower if I threw one?
16427I-- not like Miss Quentin? 16427 I?
16427I? 16427 I?
16427I? 16427 I?"
16427If I ever loved you?
16427If my voice is not even pretty-- if it is no good--"_ No good_?
16427Is champagne the cure for a heartache, then,_ Maestro_?
16427Is he a professional pianist?
16427Is it really so good?
16427Is n''t Adrienne simply wonderful?
16427Is that so? 16427 Is that the only reason, Diana?"
16427Is there, madam? 16427 Is there, madam?"
16427Is this the child? 16427 It was deliberate?"
16427It will be much more amusing than waiting in solitude, wo n''t it?
16427It''s rather absurd, is n''t it?
16427Leave home?
16427Max?
16427Max?
16427May I know the-- other reasons?
16427May I?
16427Mees de Gervais? 16427 Mees de Gervais?
16427Might n''t you reverse that, Pobs, and say that he would trust_ me_--if he loves me?
16427My dear, do you love him?
16427Nadine Mazaroff?
16427Nadine?
16427Nervous?
16427Never-- together again?
16427No other way?
16427No, not really?
16427No? 16427 Not want to?"
16427Not-- not Max?
16427Now, go on, Jerry, what plans of yours have been upset?
16427Of what are you thinking?
16427Oh, Jerry, is it you?
16427Oh, are you going?
16427Oh, are you? 16427 Oh, do you know him?"
16427Oh, do you play?
16427Oh, is that you, Max? 16427 Oh, then you have n''t forgotten?"
16427Oh, was he? 16427 Oh, why do you say such things?
16427Olga, you are unreasonable--"Unreasonable, am I? 16427 Or for my happiness?
16427Perfectly frank with me?
16427Perhaps a gallant rescuer was added to the experience, eh?
16427Quarrelled?
16427Quite warm now?
16427See, my dear, I am a cross- grained, ugly old man, am I not?
16427Shall you be warm enough?
16427Shall you require me with you, madam?
16427Sing to you?
16427So he has not told you?
16427So it''s that? 16427 So the young man yielded to_ force majeure_ and allowed you to travel with him?"
16427So this is the voice you bring me to cultivate?
16427So you approve of me-- for once?
16427So you''ve decided to make a friend of Miss de Gervais after all?
16427So you-- you, too, are against me?
16427Sounds like it, does n''t it?
16427Speak, ca n''t you?
16427Supposing I should fail?
16427Surely it was obvious?
16427Surely we must be almost at the Rectory by now?
16427Surely--bending forward to peer into Diana''s face--"surely you are not going to keep Max waiting while you--_rehearse_?"
16427Table for two?
16427Tell me what I can do, Max?
16427Tell me, how are the Rector and-- and Miss Stair?
16427That goes better,_ hein_? 16427 That is your idea, then-- to shout, and yell, and bellow your love like a caged bull?
16427That is, if Miss Quentin permits? 16427 That you, Dad?"
16427That''s the biggest thing in the world-- our love-- isn''t it? 16427 The gentleman who chisels out decay?
16427The newspapers?
16427The waste of time?
16427Then I''ll drive you, shall I? 16427 Then it''s true?"
16427Then she''s asked you?
16427Then that-- that was what Baroni meant when, he told me a time would come when your wife could no longer sing in public?
16427Then we may talk? 16427 Then we ought to pal up together, ought n''t we?"
16427Then what had?
16427Then why trouble? 16427 Then why were you there?
16427Then why-- why do you talk of sending me away?
16427Then you meant it?
16427Then you will sing?
16427Then you''re not a member of our Church?
16427Then-- if it came to a choice-- you would actually sacrifice Diana?
16427Then-- then you can not take me as a pupil?
16427Then-- then--her voice trembled--"you mean you wo n''t tell me anything more?"
16427There''s some mistake, is n''t there? 16427 This is a very serious thing about Miss de Gervais, is n''t it?"
16427This that sounds like the rumblings of a subterranean earthquake? 16427 This, then, is how you travel in haste to Paris?"
16427To Art? 16427 To Ruvania?"
16427To give her up?
16427To rehearse? 16427 To what am I indebted?"
16427Too late? 16427 Trust you?
16427Twice? 16427 Unless--""Unless what?
16427Unsay that-- take it back? 16427 Was I?"
16427Was he so very bad?
16427Was it likely that I should feel anything but gratitude-- and liking for any one who had done as much for me as you had?
16427Wednesday, is it? 16427 Weeds?
16427Well, I did, did n''t I?
16427Well, I think you did make yourself-- very useful-- last night, did n''t you?
16427Well, if it does-- I ask you, can she then continue her life as an artiste?
16427Well, then, why on earth does n''t he tell her about it, whatever it is?
16427Well, what about them?
16427Well, what did I tell you?
16427Well? 16427 Well?"
16427Well?
16427Well?
16427Well?
16427Well?
16427What I''m doing?
16427What am I doing?
16427What did I tell you? 16427 What do you mean?
16427What do you mean? 16427 What do you mean?"
16427What do you mean?
16427What do you mean?
16427What do you see?
16427What do you suppose?
16427What else can I think?
16427What had you been saying to upset that dear little person?
16427What has gone wrong, Max? 16427 What if they had?
16427What if they had?
16427What in the name of heaven and earth are you doing here?
16427What in the world are you doing?
16427What is it? 16427 What is it?"
16427What is it?
16427What is the matter?
16427What on earth do your people mean by letting you roam about by yourself like this? 16427 What right have I to ask them to trust an Englishwoman with their secret-- just for my pleasure?"
16427What shall I do?
16427What shall it be?
16427What should we quarrel about? 16427 What steps are you taking to trace the man?"
16427What steps are you taking?
16427What will Baroni say?
16427What would Baroni say to your smoking?
16427What''s happened? 16427 What''s he done to her?"
16427What''s the message?
16427What?
16427Where did you find a voice like that? 16427 Where do you want to get out?"
16427Where will you sit? 16427 Where''s Max?"
16427Where''s he been?
16427Who has been talking to you?
16427Who is Nadine Mazaroff?
16427Who is it that is such an enemy of hers?
16427Who was he?
16427Who''s going to pick up that music?
16427Why did n''t you tell me? 16427 Why do n''t you say''I told you so''at once?"
16427Why do you want to know more?
16427Why has the good God given you eyes and a mouth? 16427 Why not?
16427Why not?
16427Why this_ nil admirari_ attitude?
16427Why-- why are you always so unkind to me?
16427Why-- why did you do it?
16427Why-- why-- what do you mean?
16427Why? 16427 Why?
16427Will you allow me to take your place?
16427Will you have it up here-- or in the dining- room with the other boarders in half an hour''s time?
16427Will you smoke?
16427Will you spare me a few minutes in my study?
16427Will you trust me with the accompaniments?
16427With the same sized teapot?
16427Wo n''t you give me an old friend''s right to ask impertinent questions?
16427Wo n''t you say how do you do to me, Miss Quentin? 16427 Wo n''t you-- wish us luck, Baroni?"
16427Would it be-- a punishment?
16427Would you do that? 16427 Would you?"
16427Wur be''ee? 16427 Yet what is there to make her keep faith with us?"
16427Yon thank God? 16427 You are not serious?"
16427You did n''t mind my talking to you this afternoon, did you, Miss Quentin? 16427 You haf brought some songs?"
16427You know that?
16427You mean Paris-- Vienna?
16427You mean that the garden of memory may have several aspects-- like a house? 16427 You mean you want me to read this?"
16427You mean-- Adrienne?
16427You theenk I was too severe with him?
16427You wo n''t go back?
16427You wo n''t send me away again-- not now?
16427You''ll go away from Crailing?
16427You''re hurt--?
16427You''re the only child, are n''t you?
16427You''re thinking I do n''t look the part? 16427 You-- can''t-- go-- back?"
16427You-- in Ruvania?
16427You?
16427Yours, Jerry?
16427_ Does she know-- everything_?
16427_ Does she sing_? 16427 _ Then it''s true_?"
16427_ Trust you_?
16427_ Who he is_?
16427_ Who he is_?
16427_ Wo n''t I_?
16427_ Would n''t_?
16427_ You_--you know his secret?
16427_ Your_ father?
16427_ Your_ unhappiness? 16427 --a sudden ring of passion in his tones--Must I give up everything?
16427--scornfully--"I''m to be content with my husband''s secretary, I suppose, so that my husband himself can dance attendance on Adrienne de Gervais?"
16427After a pause, she asked:"I suppose Olga told you that I know-- everything?"
16427After all"--with bitter mockery--"what are a handful of nettles in the garden of a_ prima donna_?
16427Aloud he merely said:--"Will you have a taxi?"
16427Always to be a tool and never live an individual man''s life of my own?"
16427Am I to have nothing in the world?
16427And Adrienne de Gervais?
16427And did you force your way into his reserved compartment, may I ask?"
16427And how could a man know a woman''s soul so well unless-- unless it were the soul of the woman he loved?
16427And how goes it with the voice?"
16427And now-- where will it all end?
16427And now-- who are you?
16427And what had Bunty done to deserve so poor a lot?
16427And what was the reward of my misdeeds?
16427Apparently he did not hear her, for he asked abruptly:--"Are you prepared to give up everything-- everything in the world for art?
16427Are her wishes, then, of so much more importance than mine?"
16427Are you going to hang your wife''s happiness upon an''if''?"
16427Are you prepared for this?"
16427Are you so particularly anxious to get quit of this world?"
16427Are you trying to make mischief for me with my wife?"
16427As we''re all going to meet again at dinner we can bear to be separated for an hour or so-- even Jerry and Joan, I suppose?"
16427At last, after a pause--"But why-- why do you not want to know me?"
16427Because I grudge paying for the sins of others?
16427Because-- don''t you see, dear?"
16427But can you imagine any agent they may have put upon our track surprising her knowledge out of Olga?"
16427But hers?
16427But if the papers had got hold of it sooner--""Well?"
16427But is that all that there is between you-- this play?"
16427But still, as they have come to our church and are strangers in the district, it would perhaps be neighbourly to call, would n''t it?"
16427But surely there_ will_ come a time when I shall be free to live my own life?"
16427But this other is a debt of honour, and you would n''t want me to shirk that, would you, sweet?
16427But what could I do?
16427But what''s this?"
16427But why?
16427But would she speak?
16427But"--looking at Diana pleasantly--"we are neighbours, surely?
16427But-- but you go to see Adrienne rather often now, do n''t you?
16427By the fire?"
16427CHAPTER XXIX SACRIFICE"_ Did you mean it?_"Errington''s voice broke harshly through the silence of the little anteroom where Diana waited alone.
16427Ca n''t you have faith?"
16427Can you honestly say she has n''t chosen the better part?"
16427Can your wife still appear as a public singer?"
16427Come to tea one day, will you?"
16427Could it be-- was it conceivable, that he was already married?
16427Could n''t you get some one else to accompany you?"
16427Diana poured herself out a second cup of tea before she asked negligently:--"When''s your''boss''returning?
16427Diana tried to speak, failed, then, moistening her lips, jerked out the words:--"Signor Baroni?"
16427Diana-- beloved-- can''t you trust me over this one thing?
16427Did he get out at Craiford?"
16427Did you ever love him, I wonder, that you''re too proud to ask his forgiveness now-- now when you know what you''ve done?"
16427Do n''t you see that I must, Diana?
16427Do n''t you see what you''re doing?"
16427Do n''t you see,_ Maestro_, it kind of squares things the tiniest bit?"
16427Do n''t you think it would look rather unfriendly on the part of you girls?
16427Do n''t you-- care-- any longer?"
16427Do you hear?"
16427Do you hear?"
16427Do you know it at all?
16427Do you remember Our great love''s pure unfolding, The troth you gave, And prayed for God''s upholding, Long and long ago?
16427Do you remember Our great love''s pure unfolding, The troth you gave, And prayed, for God''s upholding, Long and long ago?
16427Do you still care for me-- like that?"
16427Do you suppose that-- that having failed him when he asked me to believe in him, I could go back to him now-- now that I know everything?
16427Do you think I ought not to be friends with her?"
16427Do you think it''s been easy?"
16427Do you"--sharply--"think that?"
16427Do-- do all dramatists have to consult so much with the leading actress in the play?"
16427Does n''t Max play the devoted husband satisfactorily?"
16427Does n''t your love count at all?"
16427Does she sing?"
16427Errington?"
16427Everything must go on just the same?"
16427First, you will take no more engagements, and now-- what is it?
16427For how long?
16427Four years old and wearing a little red coat, did you say?
16427Have n''t you guessed it?"
16427Have the"--he made an infinitesimal pause, regarding her the while with quizzical eyes--"events of the afternoon robbed you of your voice?"
16427Have you any objection?"
16427Have you ever asked him"--she paused significantly--"who he is?"
16427Have you no confidence in his judgment?"
16427He made no answer, and Diana, suddenly nervous and puzzled, continued a little breathlessly:--"Have I-- have I offended you?
16427He paused, and Diana whispered stammeringly:"Not-- not the Grand Duchess?"
16427He''ll have to be consulted in the matter, wo n''t he?"
16427How can I make you see it?
16427How can I?
16427How can I?"
16427How could I be?
16427How could she?
16427How many lives are going to be darkened by the same shadow?
16427How too late?"
16427I hope her rooms are quite ready?"
16427I never do mean anything, do I?
16427I sometimes wonder,"she added slowly,"if you ever loved me?"
16427I suppose you''ve still got Tommy and the ralli- cart?"
16427I thought you had rooms somewhere?"
16427I wanted you to have tea with me-- if you''ve time, that is?"
16427I was carrying some music, and it all blew away up the street and you helped me to collect it again?"
16427I was wrong, was I?
16427I wonder, now, if we was lost long enough, eh, Billy?"
16427If he loved her and had confidence in her, why could n''t he trust her with his secret?
16427If it would be a punishment, why were you so anxious to take it out of my hands?
16427If she had but fulfilled her womanhood, what might not her unshaken faith have meant to a man fighting a battle against such bitter odds?
16427If this were the only sort of voice Baroni condescended to train, what chance had she?
16427If you ca n''t, do you know what it looks like?"
16427Is it not so?"
16427Is it, Joan?"
16427Is n''t your love strong enough for that?"
16427Is she, by any chance, a friend of yours?"
16427Is that her name-- Nadine Mazaroff?
16427Is your trust big enough-- great enough for this?"
16427Joan"--he made a dive for her hand, but she eluded him with the skill of frequent practice--"how much longer are you going to keep me on tenterhooks?
16427Jolly good programme, is n''t it?"
16427Lawrence?"
16427Like that,_ nicht wahr_?"
16427Max, are n''t you English after all?"
16427Mr. Errington"--and as she turned to him he saw that her eyes were brimming with tears--"why ca n''t we be friends?
16427My God, are you hurt?"
16427My God, are you hurt?"
16427No good, did you say?
16427No way out?"
16427Nothing-- nothing that need come between us?"
16427Now that we are married?"
16427Oh by the way, what''s your important message?
16427Oh, why am I not a millionaire?
16427Or had God worked a miracle?
16427Or, is it your idea of punishment, perhaps-- to wreck my happiness?"
16427Part of-- the shadow?"
16427Perhaps that will wake you up,_ hein_?"
16427Pobs, I wonder who my man in the train was?"
16427Rather snubby, eh?"
16427Rehearse?"
16427Shall we say Thursday?"
16427She has been teaching you, is n''t it so?"
16427She made no answer, but after a moment asked abruptly:--"Does this-- this secret concern only you?"
16427She sprang to her feet, and switching on the light, called out sharply:--"Who is it?"
16427So that is your idea of a humble suitor, is it?"
16427So what''s the use of jibing at the price?"
16427Surely not?
16427Talk to them?"
16427That they may express nothing-- nothing at all?
16427That you are to be married?
16427The affair had been pre- arranged between him and Adrienne all the time?
16427The concert will be in the afternoon, wo n''t it?"
16427The one thing over which I asked your faith?"
16427Then I may tell Miss de Gervais that you''ll sing for her?"
16427Then it was you"--with a sudden, inspiration--"who put these lovely daffodils here, was n''t it?
16427Then once more the maddening doubt assailed her-- were they but a bitter humiliation which she would remember for the rest of her life?
16427Then she asked with apparent irrelevance:--"Is Mr. Errington married?"
16427Then she said suddenly:--"Pobs, what am I to do?"
16427Then, after a moment, with sudden, womanish curiosity:"How did you know I was singing here to- night?"
16427Then, after a pause,"Will you go?
16427Then, aloud, she said gently:"Tell me-- how much do you know?"
16427Then, turning the subject adroitly, he went on:"So now you are on your way home for a well- earned holiday?
16427Then, turning towards the accompanist, he continued:"How does your hand feel now, Miss Lermontof?"
16427Then-- then it_ was_ you-- in Grellingham Place that day?"
16427Then-- then"--Diana''s breath came unevenly--"she''s not Max''s sister?"
16427To behave as though nothing had come between us?"
16427Turning abruptly to Errington she continued:"Will you play instead?"
16427Was he really going to stay-- to accept the invitation-- after all that had occurred?
16427Was it conceivable that Adrienne de Gervais was the daughter?
16427Was the explanation of all that had so mystified her to be found in the fact that Max was a political exile?
16427We conversed together as though we had known each other all our lives, shared the same table for dinner--""You did n''t?"
16427Well, why not ask Joan to stay with you for a time-- to counterbalance matters?"
16427What about Pobs?
16427What am I to do, dear, if you wo n''t let me go with you?
16427What can a woman do unaided when the nations are fighting for supremacy?
16427What could be the cause of it?
16427What did Olga Lermontof mean when she bade me ask your name?
16427What did it mean?
16427What did you leave behind?"
16427What do they say?
16427What do you think I''m made of?"
16427What does Signor Baroni say about it?"
16427What has she to do with you?"
16427What is his name?"
16427What is it called?"
16427What is it you wish to say to me?"
16427What is the matter?"
16427What is this you tell me?
16427What is your real name?
16427What new mystery was this at which the other was hinting?
16427What part did she play in this strange medley?
16427What shall I do with all the love that is in my heart-- if you wo n''t take it?"
16427What shall we do?"
16427What was it Olga had said?
16427What would Signor Baroni say to this afternoon''s exploit?"
16427What''s happened?
16427What''s happened?"
16427What''s the matter?"
16427What, then, was Adrienne to Max?
16427What-- what are you saying?
16427When she sees daily under her eyes things that she can not explain, unaccountable things, how long will she remain satisfied, I ask you?
16427When will the play be on?"
16427Where did you leave his mother?"
16427Where is your voice?"
16427Where''s the key?"
16427Who are you?
16427Who could help her-- tell her the truth-- set at rest this new fear which had assailed her?
16427Who is it?"
16427Who planted them there?"
16427Why ca n''t I come to Ruvania with you?"
16427Why did n''t you stay where I told you to?"
16427Why did n''t you tell me?"
16427Why do n''t you dry yourself when you take a bath, Pobs dear?
16427Why need you go?
16427Why not another?"
16427Why should I, and you, and Diana-- all of us-- be sacrificed for Adrienne?"
16427Why should the mere mention of Max''s name have roused the old_ maestro_ to such a fever of indignation?
16427Why, then, with that clue in her hands, did she refuse to prosecute?
16427Why-- Ruvania?"
16427Why-- why did you ask me?"
16427Will he be back for Adrienne''s reception?"
16427Will you send Jerry to me-- do you mind, dearest?"
16427Will you tell her, please, that I''ve gone back to Brutton Square?"
16427Wo n''t you come and see me one day?"
16427Would n''t''The_ Hell_ of Memory''be more appropriate-- more true to life?"
16427Would she reveal the truth?
16427Would you be willing, now, to give up your career as a_ prima donna_--and all that it means?"
16427Wur be''ee?"
16427Yes-- or no?"
16427You do n''t want me-- this morning?"
16427You haf come back from your visit to the country?
16427You remember the attack which was made on her outside the theatre?"
16427You set me aside for Adrienne de Gervais, and then you ask me to--_trust_ you?
16427You think that, too, do n''t you?
16427You will drink a glass of champagne-- now, at once,"he insisted, adding persuasively as she shook her head,"To please me, is it not so?"
16427Your people must be looking forward to seeing you after so long a time-- you have been away a year, did n''t you say?"
16427_ What do you mean_?
16427_ You_?"
16427all this?
16427almost as though I were an enemy?"
16427are you going to cut me again?
16427like this?"
16427secret?"
16427the little glass of wine in my room, is it not?"
16427the warm colour dyed her face from chin to brow--"Could I love you if I did n''t trust you?"
16427too much to ask?"
16427was it still only the dream, the memory of long ago?
