57975Page 55--omitted double closing quote added--"... Now you know all about Captain Kidd?"

27071Ah, my cousin, Mr. Dockerell,said Mrs. Manson,"you knew him, did you?
27071Am I? 27071 Are you going to the Humphreys to- morrow?"
27071But why ridiculous, Aunt Etta?
27071But, after all, what is that Teachers''Society that Hilda belongs to( Hilda was another niece)"but a Trade Union?

27071Ellen?
27071How are you getting on with your paper, dear? 27071 I just came to say, Why_ are_ you such an idiot?"
27071If there is any difficulty, could not my mother take one of you to- morrow night?
27071If you ca n''t remember, what does it matter?
27071Is it, dear?
27071Me?
27071Now you are happy, are n''t you, Miss Etta?
27071Oh, ca n''t you find anything better to do than that? 27071 Reading Italian, my dear?"
27071The lamp''m,said Annie;"but you do n''t want it for half an hour yet, do you,''m, it''s such a beautiful evening?"
27071Were they?
27071What is it?
27071Whatever I do, I fail; what is the use of my living? 27071 Who do you think has come to live here, Henrietta?"
27071Wo n''t they?
27071Yes, but I think we must leave them to judge what they like to wear; it is not our business really, is it? 27071 Yes, why do you lose your temper like that?
27071After the squalor of lodgings home was pleasant, and her father''s invitation was cordial:"Henrietta, why do n''t you stay with us?
27071And the canary, Miss Etta-- do you remember that?
27071As they said good- night, Louie whispered,"Have you forgiven me, Etty?"
27071Can I be of any help?"
27071Could n''t we call for you?
27071Do you remember Sarah?
27071Do you remember what you did for me in old days?

27071He was a commonplace young man, but what did that matter?
27071He''s dead, poor man, had you heard?
27071How can one be so foolish at nearly sixty?"
27071I crushed-- see, what did I crush?--a little teeny- tiny piece of flounce one terrible evening; did n''t I, Henrietta?
27071If her powers had already declined at forty, what was to happen in the twenty years of life that she might reasonably count upon as still before her?
27071If she did not go out to parties, what was she to do?
27071Nursing her mother?
27071Oh, how is it that we''ve got apart?"
27071One evening it came into her head, and she asked her sister,"By the by, who was Henrietta Symons?"
27071Shall I just scratch that out?
27071She was always saying,''Now, who shall we have to dinner?
27071She_ did_ want you so; every time there was a ring it was,''Is that from her?''
27071The first time this occurred Miranda opened her large eyes very wide and said,"What''s come over my young friend, has it got the hydrophobia?
27071The housekeeping?
27071Then, of course, she could not go alone, and who was to go with her?
27071They managed to construct a sentence for the priest, who was standing nodding by them:"Are there any pretty walks in the neighbourhood?"
27071We''ve always been special, we two, have n''t we, ever since I can remember?"
27071What was it you were going to say?"
27071What was the use of twelve years in which she had sincerely tried to do her best, if she had not built up some little memorial of affection?
27071What were they all so excited about?
27071When she could speak, she said:"Evelyn, do you ever think of our children?"
27071Where did she come from?
27071Where should she live?
27071Where was she to find relief?
27071Where would the church and the poor be without them?
27071Why had God sent her into the world, if she was not wanted?
27071Why should n''t she go for some visits?"
27071Why then, was she attending lectures on Aristotle?
27071Why was Evelyn to have everything and she nothing?
27071Why was I born?"
27071Why, when I was young we should never----""And you do n''t object to their joining Trade Unions?"
27071Why?
27071Would the English ladies and gentlemen care to go?
27071Would you care to talk them over with me after the class?"
27071You see my point, do n''t you?"
13522Advances? 13522 And how about Miss Quincey?"
13522And how is_ Sordello?_he asked, the tone of his inquiry suggesting that there was something seriously the matter with_ Sordello_.
13522And now,said she, pointing as she might have pointed to a monument,"will you kindly tell me the meaning of this?"
13522And when we''ve opened all the doors as wide as ever they''ll go, what then? 13522 And why not for you?
13522Are you sure you are perfectly well?
13522But women must do something-- surely you see the necessity?
13522Do n''t know_ me_, m''m,said Martha soothingly;"seems all of a white swoon, do n''t she?"
13522Do n''t you know me, Jooley dear?
13522Do you know what I would like to do with you, Miss Quincey?
13522Do you mean that you''ll go no further unless you know?
13522Do you mean the arsenic? 13522 Do you mean you are not going back to that place there?"
13522Do you mean-- me then? 13522 Do you not approve of educated women then?"
13522Do you not think the heart-- the heart is a little--?
13522Do you realize what this means? 13522 Equal chances?
13522Have you got a headache, Miss Quincey?
13522How could you have it--''out with him''?
13522How do you know?
13522How will he receive me?
13522Jooley-- Jooley-- don''t you_ know_ me?
13522Juliana-- you do n''t mean to tell me that he invited himself?
13522Nature?
13522Oh, I am sure-- Do you mean Miss Cursiter?
13522She? 13522 That''s hardly a thick enough wrap for this weather, is it?"
13522The future? 13522 The system?
13522Then is n''t it almost time that you should see one now?
13522Well,she asked,"it_ is_ overwork, is n''t it?"
13522What am I thinking of? 13522 What does that mean, Martha?"
13522What if I did? 13522 What indeed?
13522What should he come for?
13522What''s wrong?
13522What,said Miss Quincey,"do you not believe in equal chances for men and women?"
13522What? 13522 Why, Laura?"
13522Will you tell me the meaning of this? 13522 Will you-- will you want to see me again?"
13522Would you? 13522 You are not worrying about St. Sidwell''s-- about your work?"
13522You will look after her well, will you not?
13522You, dear child? 13522 _ Your_ invitation?
13522Again?
13522And do you always know a St. Sidwell''s woman when you see one?"
13522And do you feel it just here?"
13522And had the hint implied that for the future all accounts with him were closed?
13522And what if it were so?"
13522And when they''re faint and weary with their day''s work?"
13522Any system that unfits them for their proper functions--""And do we know-- have we decided-- yet-- what they are?"
13522Are you going to turn your back on us?"
13522But how was Juliana to know that?
13522Cautley?"
13522Did she know?
13522Did she not know, she too, that the dream is the reality?
13522Do n''t we give the same test papers to everybody?"
13522Do you have creeps all down your back?
13522Do you know what I''m going to be some day, when she''s married and gone away?
13522Do you see_ her_?"
13522Flighty?
13522Flighty?
13522Flighty?
13522Had her aunt carried out her dreadful threat of giving him a hint to send in his account?
13522Had n''t you better see"--she hesitated-- pausing with unwonted delicacy for her words--"a doctor?"
13522He was the sort of man that any woman-- But who would have thought it of Miss Quincey?
13522I thought you doctors were never happy until you''d found some mare''s nest in people''s constitutions?
13522I''m so tired of hogsheads; may n''t it be firkins this time?"
13522Is that the case?"
13522It_ is_ a half- holiday?"
13522Lost your self- respect, have you?
13522Miss Quincey-- so they had let her come to this among them all?
13522Miss Quincey-- when you like anything very much-- or any_body_--it does n''t matter which-- do you turn red all over?
13522Moon and been received with crushing hostility?
13522Moon observed suddenly one morning,"if that man is going to let his bill run on to the day of judgment?"
13522Moon seemed to be permanently displeased)--"whatever possessed you to make such an exhibition of yourself?
13522Not me?"
13522On a half- holiday?
13522Or had Martha permitted herself to say that she, Miss Quincey, was out when perhaps he knew for a positive fact that she was in?
13522She did n''t see my verses, did she?
13522She had, she was afraid that so much poison--"Poison?"
13522She remembered-- things that he had said to her-- did they mean that he had seen?
13522So he was coming again, was he?
13522Stirred by a faint_ esprit de corps_ Miss Quincey asked him if he did not believe in the open door for women?
13522Suppose you do away with it-- do away with every woman''s college in the kingdom-- have you anything to put in its place?"
13522The question for me is-- how long am I to let her hamper our future?"
13522Then when he met her again he would ask,"Have you been taking any more Browning, Miss Quincey?"
13522They''re to do it in their evenings, are they?
13522Too late?
13522Was it her fancy, or did his manner imply that he wanted to sink that humiliating episode of the tea- party and begin again where they had left off?
13522Was the system so far in accordance with Nature that it was careless of the single life?
13522Were they really, as Bastian Cautley put it, so engrossed in producing a new type that they had lost sight of the individual?
13522What did he say to Miss Vivian then?
13522What would my pupils do, and what would Miss Cursiter say?"
13522What, after all, had she done for that innocent whom she had made her friend?
13522Where are we going to?"
13522Who or what do we provide for, if it comes to that?
13522Why, what would a procession be like without Miss Quincey to enliven it?
13522You do n''t imagine he comes for the pleasure of seeing_ you_?"
13522You really are getting strong again, are n''t you?"
13522You''re just hysterical, and you just want--?"
13522You''re not overdoing it, I hope?"
13522You_ wo n''t_ let on that I wrote them?"
32135Does Willy really believe in love marriages?

32135Are we sick?
32135Are we troubled about meat and money matters?
32135Are ye not much better than they?"
32135Ask the majority of people"What is education?"
32135Before she was twelve years old she had become suspicious of the conduct of every woman, and when her teacher one day asked her,"Who was Moses?"
32135Besides, there are very likely to be two, three, four, or more daughters in a house; how could a man of moderate means save for all of them?
32135But how far love is to blame for these strange attractions, who can tell?
32135But if the one be a blank, will that prove the other a prize?
32135But if we are not sick, why should we take medicine?
32135But there is no necessity for this insane competition; and why provide an unusual and special remedy for what is purely optional?
32135But what right had she to expect that men would revere the treasure she herself left unguarded?
32135But who attempts to turn a horse in harness with one hand?
32135But why despise one of the grandest moral forces in the universe?
32135Can any time separate the name of Monica from that of her son Augustine?
32135Could they be parted without great sorrow and regrets?
32135Do we doubt His good- will toward us?
32135Do we fear death?
32135Do we fear that our work is beyond our strength?
32135Do we not even put our rulers through a course of hand- shaking in order to divest them of any respect the office might bring?
32135Do we think that God will not keep His word?
32135Doubtless Xanthippe was a good housekeeper,--women with sharp tempers usually have that compensation,--but who can keep house amiably upon nothing?
32135For actions speak louder than words, and what does such action say?
32135Have they found the battle of life any more ennobling in masculine professions than in their old feminine household ways?
32135Have they not many a secret between them that they only understand?
32135Have we some malignant enemy to fight?
32135He is almost compelled to look on his fellow- creatures with the eye of a slave- merchant, to consider: How can they profit me?
32135How is it that she has suddenly become"so self- opinionated"?
32135How is this?
32135How many snubs and heart- aches does she bear ere she comprehends the position?
32135How often does this poor mother go to see her child before she realizes she is a bore?
32135If her husband tolerates the pretty woman''s vagaries, what right have I, what right has any one, to say a word about her?"
32135If it were a matter of catechism, how many educated women would be capable of nursing good- naturedly for weeks a fretful, sick child not their own?
32135If she be not more than all the world to him, he has no right to marry her; and if she be, what can be added to a gift so precious?
32135In real life what are parents to do with a daughter whose romantic folly has made her marry their groom or their footman?
32135Is any girl sweeter or even safer for knowing about the under- current of filth below the glittering crust of gilded society?
32135Is love, then, in a state of decay?
32135Is that the best?
32135Is the worry not for ourselves, but for wife and children that will be left without support and protection?
32135Is there a more pathetic picture than that of Dickens''s study after his death?
32135Is there any one whose feelings and energies are not depressed by a cold, comfortless, untidy room?
32135Is work done in the world for strangers any less tiresome and monotonous than work done in the house for father and mother, husband and children?
32135It may seem but a small thing to do for charity''s sweet sake, but who shall measure the results?
32135Mission of Household Furniture Have wood and paper and upholstery really any moral and emotional agencies?
32135Need I point out to wives the wonderful sympathy between this disease and the dining- table?
32135Or, are they to be finely developed, sweetbreathed, clear- eyed, light- spirited mediums for divine aspirations and intellectual and material works?
32135Ought we to Wear Mourning?
32135Perhaps just as great a puzzle to a reflective mind is, What comes of all the promising boys?
32135Serious illnesses are full of instruction and resignation, but who thinks of being resigned to a cold, or of making a profitable use of it?
32135Shall our Daughters have Dowries?
32135Should she find it equally impossible to lift him to her level or to sink to his, what remains?
32135The Chinese quarter is a fact, yet is there a mother who would like her daughter to visit it?
32135Therefore I ask, if we must wear a distinct dress to typify our sorrow, why black?
32135What Christian wife would like that?
32135What can I gain by them?
32135What good can come of little children knowing the things which belong to maturity?
32135What is the bud to the perfect rose?
32135What makes him, a little later, accuse her of every domestic fault?
32135What remains for them then?
32135What, then, are we to do?
32135What, then, is to be done?
32135When He says that He will make all things work together for our good, is the Holy One lying to our sorrowful hearts?
32135Where is the improvement in transforming the womanly loveliness of Mary into Mollie?
32135Where is there a more discontented creature than a good watch- dog?
32135Who ever saw two children mentally alike?
32135Who shall deliver children from the unwise indulgences, fanciful theories, and inherited mistakes of their parents?
32135Who shall say now that woman''s domestic sphere is narrow, or unworthy of her highest powers?
32135Who then would build our churches, and endow our colleges?
32135Who would send out missionaries, and encourage science and inventions?
32135Who, therefore, needs strong and nutritious food more than children?
32135Why have we so many George Washingtons?
32135Why not?
32135Why should we despise good things because we do not possess them?
32135Why, indeed, should she?
32135Why, then, expect a virtue from servants which we do not practise in our own stations?
32135With the hopes of the young ladies we do not meddle; why then interfere about nurse and the policeman?
32135Woo''d and married and a'': An''is na she very weel aff That is woo''d and married and a''?"
32135Worried to Death To say"we are worried to death"is a common expression; but do we really comprehend the terrible truth of the remark?
32135Would Lamprocles have received the fatherly flogging and reproof as meekly as he did if he had not been sensible of his error?
32135Would Socrates have urged respect and obedience towards a mother unworthy of it?
32135Would any good woman wish to restore service to this condition?
32135Would it be the wonders of steam, electricity, and science; the tyranny of the working classes, or the autocracy of servants?
32135Yes, she has her freedom, and what does it mean?
32135Yet who shall say what events may arise from such a simple thing as the first impressions of an important visitor?
32135or,"Is it better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all?"
10548''Forgot? 10548 ''Is it quite open?''
10548A board?
10548A cartel?
10548Ah, Mademoiselle, what poet taught you that?
10548Ah, so that is what you two have been conspiring over? 10548 And that is--?"
10548And you really need me to point out how prettily those turtles were befooling you?
10548Anything wrong?
10548Are you quite sure last night did, not over- tire you? 10548 As you say,''to the dogs''hein?
10548But do n''t you see that we prisoners are-- forgive me-- just like women? 10548 But had he nothing to say at the time?"
10548But if you love me?
10548But why could n''t we?
10548But why could n''t we?
10548But why? 10548 But you?"
10548But, surely the note itself would not be called for?
10548But,urged Dorothea,"could n''t we tell the truth of what happened without anyone''s wanting to know more?
10548By the way,Dorothea asked, after a short pause,"what is happening at''The Dogs''tonight?
10548C''est son_ gilet_--his little Waistcoat-- Ã   chauffer la poitrine--"Des visiteurs, dit il? 10548 Can we see him?"
10548Can you guess who sent me that story?
10548Dead?
10548Dites donc, mon petit,--but the cheerful epithet he bestowed on Raoul is unquotable here--"Elle ne fume pas, votre Anglaise?
10548Do they suffer much in these winters?
10548Do you know him?
10548Do you know the air? 10548 Do you know?"
10548Do you think we can entertain at dinner next Wednesday? 10548 Do?
10548Eh? 10548 Eh?
10548Eh?
10548Eh?
10548Eh?
10548Eh?
10548For that poor fellow Raoul?
10548Forgot? 10548 Has anyone thought of sending for Doctor Ibbetson?
10548Have they sent for Mudge?
10548Have you burnt the note?
10548I am sure, sir, I could not guess, even if I possessed--"A board, for example?
10548I take, you must know, a somewhat broad view on such matters-- may I, without offence, term it a liberal one? 10548 I-- ah-- beg your pardon?"
10548In love--she smiled, but passing faintly--"it''s the little things, is it not?
10548Indeed, Miss?
10548Indeed? 10548 Is it highway robbery?
10548Is it that which has annoyed General Rochambeau?
10548Know him? 10548 May I ask you if you seriously propose to familiarise Axcester with all the orgies of a Continental Sabbath?
10548Miss Westcote is not dancing tonight?
10548My dear Dorothea, are you quite insane?
10548Next Wednesday?
10548Oh, what is that to me?
10548Really, after the request I was obliged to make to Narcissus last night-- you were present, I believe? 10548 So M. Raoul has been telling you all about us?"
10548So here is the source of your inspiration? 10548 The concert, for instance?"
10548The guests, do you mean?
10548Tired, Miss?
10548To whom were you talking?
10548To whom were you talking?
10548Was Zeally mounting guard tonight? 10548 Well,"demanded Narcissus, after exchange of greetings,"and what did he say about the drawings?"
10548Were you the gentleman she danced with, at''The Dogs,''the night of the snowstorm?
10548What does it mean?
10548What has happened? 10548 What was she saying?"
10548What will you do?
10548Will you remember your promise, Monsieur, and allow me to examine a little more closely? 10548 You do n''t mean to say that Zeally suspects you?"
10548You do not agree with my view?
10548You have made all arrangements, of course?
10548You have not seen it since the decorations began? 10548 You have not seen the Orange Room, Miss Dorothea?"
10548You know M. Raoul? 10548 You know, of course, sir,"Endymion Westcote addressed the prisoner coldly,"to what such a confession commits you?
10548You like it?
10548You prefer that he should be fetched at once?
10548You say my brother is at''The Dogs,''Monsieur? 10548 You will not help me, then?"
10548You wish, of course, to see him alone together?
10548_''Mais quel rapport y a- t- il? 10548 ''Bacchus and Ariadne''? 10548 --he gave Endymion his full title--My dear sir, this is indeed-- And Miss Westcote?"
10548After a pause she added:"I suppose you''d like me to go now?
10548Am I to show him in?"
10548An_ Ovid_?
10548And Dorothea?
10548And now, how about me?
10548And seeing your brother admired by all, so strong and prosperous and confident, can I ask that he should feel as we who have forfeited these things?"
10548And this next?
10548And to whom, General, are we indebted for this-- ah-- treat?"
10548And you wo n''t sit up late and set fire to the house?
10548Are you not dancing tonight?"
10548Before luncheon?
10548But had she been wholly wrong?
10548But how was I to guess?"
10548But my grandmother was a Frenchwoman, and that gives me a kind of-- sympathy, shall we say?
10548But what are you doing to the book?"
10548But what difference could its ending make?
10548But what then was it?
10548But why were they, all so darkly terrible?
10548But, as Shakespeare says,''What''s in a name?''
10548Can love( she had asked) draw near and pass and go its way unrecognised?
10548Come now-- as Commissary, what''ll you take to work it for us?
10548Could n''t the drawings be conveyed to him, in due form, through the Commandant of the Prison?
10548Could she not in some way add to their comfort, or their pleasure?
10548Did he talk of Avignon, for instance?
10548Did you tell it for me?"
10548Does one hear of any surviving?
10548Eh?
10548Endymion?"
10548For whom but my brother would these poor men have worked as they did upon the Orange Room-- and all to show their gratitude?
10548Forgot the drawings?
10548Forgot your_ parole?
10548Had she, being young, been afraid to die?
10548Have you brought the India- ink?"
10548He has not been complaining, I trust?"
10548He picks up a few shillings by painting portraits; but you English are shy of sitting-- I wonder why?
10548He rubbed his head, and added with a twinkle:"Why, what have you been doing?"
10548Her husband will have just ground for complaint, and it might-- I need not point out-- be a little awkward, eh?"
10548Here came the coach-- did it hold a letter for Raoul?
10548How could you do it?
10548How could you?
10548How could you?"
10548How it brings up old school- days At Winchester-- old swishings, too, General, hey?"
10548How many would you guess, now?"
10548I hope, by the way, you have brought a great- coat?"
10548I suppose, now, there was nothing between him and that girl Polly?
10548Is a poor lady''s heart to be in combustion for a while and then-- pf!--the flame expelled at a blast, with all that fed it?
10548Is he-- is M. Raoul outside?"
10548Is it possible that I failed to make plain my distaste?"
10548Is it wicked?"
10548My brother, sir,"she turned to Raoul,"has no conscience when once set going on his hobby; for, of course, you were discussing the pavement?"
10548No doubt, you and Miss Westcote would prefer to break the good news to him in private?
10548No?
10548Now if your sweetheart--""Who told you I had one?"
10548Of what?
10548Perhaps you can suggest a more suitable one?"
10548Raoul!--to M. Raoul?
10548Raoul?"
10548Still, that scarcely explains--""And you will be good, and take your meals regularly when Mudge beats the gong?
10548Time went on, repeating these assemblies; and the question became, Will they ever marry?
10548What are you doing?"
10548What became of his happy colonists in the end?
10548What does Milliton say?"
10548What have we here?
10548What have you been eating?"
10548What in the name of wonder could the fellow have to discuss with you at that hour?
10548What is it?"
10548What is that?
10548What so easy now as to suspect the two women who were never known to buy either bread or butcher''s meat?
10548What''s his name?"
10548What?
10548Who could have guessed that this quiet spinster, who, as a rule, held herself and walked so awkwardly, would prove the best partner in the room?
10548Why did he do it?"
10548Will you step into the surgery, Miss Westcote?"
10548Would you wish me to stay here, or to come with you?"
10548Would_ her_ letter never arrive?
10548Yes, it has happened to you; but why?
10548You do not know that we have a genius at work on the painting?"
10548You have come for a book?
10548You will, perhaps, wish to consult your brother though?"
10548You wo n''t be wanting your hair done to- night?"
10548You, a woman of thirty- eight( or is it thirty- nine?
10548_ Nom de tonnerre_, what had he done?
10548how?"
22047Am I called an Old Maid?
22047Baby loves her mother, does n''t she? 22047 But is this your view of what is right?"
22047Can you fall in love to order?
22047Can you tell me why such a bitter experience should have been sent to me so early in life?
22047Did you ever read such foolishness?
22047Did you love him then so much?
22047Do you suppose any of them withhold anything from such a fear?
22047Do you suppose it is possible for a man ever to thoroughly understand a woman?
22047Do you think so?
22047Do you think-- you know me better than any one else does-- do you think_ I_ could, if I gave my whole mind to it?
22047Honest and manly enough to confess myself a rascal? 22047 How came you to love such a weak man?"
22047I am honest,say they,"so you must not be offended, but is it true that your grandfather was hanged for being a pirate?"
22047I dare say you are right, but what am I to do?
22047I suppose you have heard the news, have n''t you?
22047I suppose you have tried to love your husband?
22047Is n''t it horribly immoral in me to sit here and talk in this way about a married man? 22047 Is n''t it strange to see the kind of men who love clever women like you?
22047Is that really so?
22047Look at his chin,said Rachel;"could a man be strong with a chin like that?"
22047My dear Pet,I exclaimed,"what is the matter?"
22047Noble? 22047 Now, what ailed them all?
22047Oh, Ruth, how could I?
22047Oh, must you go? 22047 Tell Louise?
22047Tried? 22047 Well, may I talk to you?
22047What are a man''s debts of honor?
22047What did I tell you?
22047What do you mean?
22047What if you should be run over and killed,she says,"or should faint away in church?
22047What''s the use of being engaged to a man that you can keep on hand without?
22047Why are n''t women the choosers?
22047Why ca n''t clever women marry, and make just as good wives as the others? 22047 Why do n''t you ask me why I said that?"
22047Why do n''t you talk this over with your husband?
22047Why mention blame in connection with yourself? 22047 Why, child, how old are you?"
22047Why, my dear Pet,I said in an unguarded moment,"which do you love?"
22047Why_ do n''t_ you marry somebody?
22047''Why do you shine so?''
22047''Why do you spit at me?''
22047( Query, but is it constancy where there is no temptation to be fickle?)
22047A pretty box, so that one who runs may read?
22047And did n''t Grace Beck''s airs with Mr. Whitehouse amuse you?
22047And whenever he said anything, I could look innocent and say,''Is that Platonic friendship?''
22047Are n''t girls queer?
22047Are you quite sure that foolish notion is out of your head too?
22047But I like honesty myself, do n''t you?"
22047But could you make her lover believe that?
22047But did you ever consider what an honor the love of such a man as your husband is?
22047But do you realize how I should insult her if I went to her?
22047But does n''t it seem to you that people marry from very mixed motives?
22047But he does n''t care, so why should I?
22047But how could I?
22047But why?
22047But, then, does n''t every one who marries at all, Jew or Gentile, black or white, bond or free, make an experiment?
22047But, with so many different kinds of women, how is a man to know anything?"
22047By the way, did you notice how red Frankie Taliaferro''s eyes were last night?
22047Can you form any idea of how I felt?
22047Can you picture the thing to yourself?
22047Could anybody under heaven be noble with such a name as Flossy?
22047Did you ever hear of such impertinence?
22047Did you ever notice, when he talks, how Rachel turns her head away?
22047Do I seem old to you, kitty?
22047Do I want to just sit still and watch myself turn?
22047Do n''t you consider him odd?
22047Do n''t you think I''m sensible?"
22047Do n''t you think it has a lonesome sound to- night?
22047Do n''t you think that was noble?
22047Do you imagine that Biology kills blushing in a woman?
22047Do you know how he is admired by great men?
22047Do you remember this, from Beaumont and Fletcher,"''Of all the paths that lead to woman''s love Pity''s the straightest''?
22047Do you suppose because I know Greek that I can not be in love?
22047Do you suppose because I went through higher mathematics that I never pressed a flower he gave me?
22047Do you suppose for an instant that you could continue to deceive her after you were married?
22047Fallen into it?
22047Frost, have n''t you?
22047God bless me, what have I done?
22047Has any trouble come between you?
22047How bored Asbury looked, did n''t he?
22047How can I tell her?"
22047How can any one be happy in looking back?
22047How can girls of my sort love so hopelessly beneath us?
22047How can you have the courage to shut out love?
22047How can you see the happiness of all your friends and not want a share of it yourself?
22047How could I?
22047How could anybody who knew all about it?
22047How could even Charlie Hardy so persistently misunderstand the grandeur of Louise King?
22047How dare men and women trifle with the Shekinah of their lives?
22047I am sorry for Brandt, too, for he honestly loved Alice and might have proved the hundredth man-- who knows?
22047I could love one I was proud of, or afraid of, but one I pitied?
22047I exclaimed, now really worried,"what is it?"
22047I read them, I fairly study them, so that it shall not escape me; but, if it does come out, what shall we do for Nellie?
22047I say, how can you not tell her?"
22047I suppose you can look back ages and ages and remember when you had lovers, ca n''t you?
22047I''d take it off and show it to you, only I think it would look rather pronounced, do n''t you?"
22047I?
22047If she did n''t want me I could come back, but what if she did want me and I was not there?
22047Is it strange that I like Percival?
22047Is n''t it rich?
22047Is n''t she the prettiest thing you ever saw?
22047Is n''t that sweet of her?
22047Is n''t your love sweeter and truer for having grown and expanded?
22047Is there some one you love?
22047May I tell you about it?
22047Most of all, why do I ever try to keep a secret?"
22047Mr. Norris Whitehouse is a great friend of yours, is n''t he?
22047Names?
22047Nice state of affairs, is n''t it?"
22047No?
22047No?
22047No?
22047No?
22047Now, which would you take?"
22047Oh, I am going too far, am I?
22047Or have you forgotten?
22047Rich, is n''t it?
22047Ruth, Ruth, what was the matter with it?"
22047Ruth, were you ever in love?"
22047Ruth, what is that woman made of?"
22047Sallie Cox?
22047Should_ you_ feel that way?
22047Sister says bad things to poor sick mamma, and mamma ca n''t love her, can she?
22047So when I met Payson, I said,''What do you say to a Platonic friendship?''
22047Still, how can they help it at times?"
22047Supposing she found out afterwards, then what?
22047Surely it must be for my husband?"
22047Tabby, did you ever hear me speak of Charlie Hardy?
22047Tabby, did you ever?
22047Tell me,_ do_ you know?"
22047That is high treason, is n''t it?
22047The next day the man wishes he were well out of it, I suppose?"
22047Then you do not blame me?"
22047Then, after she told me that she loved me, how could I tell her that, in spite of what I had said, I was engaged to another girl?
22047They are not all in the japanned box, are they?
22047They would have admired you in dumb silence, until they grew tired of feeling your superiority; after that-- what?"
22047This grieves her wofully, but leaves her with no mode of redress, for who dare offer balm to wounded vanity?
22047VI THE LONELY CHILDHOOD OF A CLEVER CHILD"Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood?...
22047Was he realizing that he had helped to shatter his ideals with his own hand?
22047Was it a weakness in him?
22047Was n''t Brian Beck dreadful, and did n''t you think you would go to sleep under Frank Mayo''s stories?
22047What am I talking about?
22047What boots it if the laughter is a trifle hollow?
22047What has she done to me?
22047What is his unworth compared with your worth?
22047What is it, Ruth?"
22047What news?"
22047What will such men have to answer for?
22047Whatever possessed him to say such a thing?
22047Who knows?
22047Who would think that that bright, saucy, clever little flirt, who rides on the crest of the wave always, could have such a heart history?
22047Why ca n''t people let me alone, and why do n''t I let them alone?
22047Why ca n''t you be satisfied to have some of them friends, and not all sweethearts?"
22047Why change?
22047Why do women of great intelligence, of intellect even, blush with pleasure at the implication of youth?
22047Why do you cry so, my dear?
22047Why have I never thought of it before?
22047Why is it that all the brightest men we know have selected girls who looked pretty and have coddled them?
22047Why is it that everybody gives mamma and the baby so much love, when they never cared for it, and I care so much and never get a single bit?
22047Why is it that men expect an old sweetheart to take an active interest in their bride- elect, and are so deadly sure that they will like each other?)
22047Will it hurt you?"
22047Would n''t she have thought I was a rascal?
22047Would you want it to?
22047Yes-- how- de- do, Miss Culpepper?
22047Yet how could such a glorious girl imagine herself in love with nice, weak, agreeable Charlie Hardy?
22047You can remember when Missis received love- letters, ca n''t you?
22047You have seen Sallie Cox, have n''t you?
22047You know the story of the Whitehouse money, do n''t you?
22047You know why she hates me, and understand why she treats me so abominably?
22047Your honor is involved in this, is it?
22047_ Are_ you poorer for having loved him?
22047_ Then_ who''ll help you out?"
22047and their letters-- must they too be destroyed?
22047she cried,"did I frighten you?
22047what is the matter?"
22047who would have suspected that she had such a worthy motive for her ball?
31266( ARTHUR_ goes briskly for the cane, and she hits the desk with it._) Arthur, surely that terrifies you?
31266( MISS SUSAN''S_ rapt face alarms her._) Oh, Susan, was he as dreadful as that?
31266( MISS SUSAN_ gathers her knitting, looks at_ PHOEBE,_ and is preparing to go._) You are not going, ma''am, before you know what it is?
31266(_ As if_ VALENTINE_ were present._) Oh, sir, how dare you look so pityingly at me?
31266(_ Breaking down._) Susan-- his arm-- have you seen?
31266(_ Brushes carpet._) Sergeant, I am wishful to scold you, but would you be so obliging as to stand on this paper while I do it?
31266(_ But he is very determined, and she is afraid of him._) Will you excuse me, sir, while I talk with Susan behind the door?
31266(_ But he knows, and he turns away his face._) Are you laughing, sir?
31266(_ Eagerly_) Now, Phoebe, what is it you have to tell me?
31266(_ Eagerly_) Sergeant, who?
31266(_ Passionately._) Sister, am I as changed as he says I am?
31266(_ Remembering how strange boys are._) Was it for the honour of the school?
31266(_ She has to ask him the ten years old question._) Do you opinion that this makes her action in allowing it less reprehensible?
31266(_ She reclines._) But tell me, is not Miss Phoebe to join us?
31266(_ What is it that_ MISS PHOEBE_ begins to see as she sits there so quietly, with her hands pressed together as if upon some treasure?
31266(_ Wistfully._) May I stand beside you, Miss Susan?
31266A bride?
31266A gentleman of this town enlisted?
31266A soldier?
31266Am I dashing, Miss Phoebe?
31266Am I not the ideal recruit, ma''am: a man without a wife or a mother or a sweetheart?
31266Am I then to understand that you had foreseen it all, Miss Phoebe?
31266Am I to understand, sir, that you are intimating disparagement of the moon?
31266And did-- did I amuse you also?
31266And how could you acquaint him with this poor sport?
31266And how do you find Miss Livvy, sir?
31266And if he refuses?
31266And my other friends, I hope I find them in health?
31266And that I am not a garden?
31266And who was Livvy?
31266And you and Miss Susan will write to me when occasion offers?
31266Are they paying you no attentions, my dear?
31266Are they the world, Susan, or is there anything beyond them?
31266Are we so disagreeable that no one will dance with us?
31266Are you angry with me, Miss Livvy?
31266Are you ashamed of yourself?
31266Are you implicating, ma''am, that I have a follower?
31266Are you laughing, sir?
31266Arthur, why did you fight with that street boy?
31266Because I have had to work so hard,--is it a crime when a woman works?
31266Because I have tried to be courageous-- have I been courageous, Susan?
31266Because your face was wet?
31266Both, ma''am?
31266But I do n''t, do I?
31266But oh, sister, I am sure they suspect, else why should they be here?
31266But she remembers, and how often do you think the shameful memory has made her face wet since?
31266But the gentleman recruit?
31266Can it be our old pupil-- Ensign Blades?
31266Cloak?
31266Dear Phoebe Throssel, will you be Phoebe Brown?
31266Did I?
31266Did Miss Phoebe say that?
31266Did his eyes flash fire?
31266Did you surmise it was something else?
31266Did you?
31266Do you foresee the cobwebs gathering and gathering, Miss Phoebe?
31266Do you propose making a long stay in Quality Street, ma''am?
31266Do you refer, Miss Susan, to V. B.?
31266Do you remember, Patty?
31266Do you think he was quizzing me?
31266Do you think so, Miss Phoebe?
31266Do you wish to be caned?
31266Father says, will you or wo n''t you?
31266Fifteen years, and still you are hopeful?
31266For King and Country, ma''am?
31266Going away?
31266Good God, ma''am, is it possible?
31266Good God; but why?
31266HARRIET_ has a moment''s hope._) How do you do, sir?
31266Have you ever seen a vivandiere, sir?
31266Have you one for me, Miss Susan?
31266He does not know?
31266He is infatuate----(_ She hesitates._) Sister, you are not partial to him still?
31266How do you do, sir?
31266How do you do, sir?
31266How do you do?
31266How do you do?
31266How do you find yourself, dear Miss Livvy?
31266How do you think she is looking?
31266How is Mary, Fanny?
31266I am exceedingly funny at times; am I not, Susan?
31266I ask your pardon?
31266I conceive it to be a nervous disorder?
31266I had not meant to speak of it, but why should not I?
31266I hear Miss Livvy is indisposed?
31266I never look at it but I say to myself,''Who is to be the lucky man?''
31266I suppose men are like that?
31266If he had really had one, think you I could have been so wicked as to personate her?
31266Is it sport to wish she may be my wife?
31266Is it that Miss Livvy is an obstacle?
31266Is it that you desire to make sport of me?
31266Is it true that the Corsican Ogre eats babies?
31266Is not that it?
31266Is she asleep?
31266Is she gone?
31266Is she very poorly, sir?
31266Is that what you think I am doing, Miss Willoughby?
31266Is that you, Aunt Susan?
31266Is there some mystery about Miss Livvy?
31266Is this right, Phoebe?
31266Latin-- shall we say algebra?''
31266Latin?
31266Lost?
31266Luck?
31266Ma''am, may I have the honour?
31266Ma''am, tell me, do you think there is any hope for me?
31266May I ask, ma''am, what you mean by an obstacle?
31266May I go in to see her?
31266May I say there are differences of opinion about it?
31266May I sit on this chair, Miss Phoebe?
31266May I solicit of you, Miss Susan, is Captain Brown Miss Livvy''s guardian; is he affianced to her?
31266May I solicit, sir, for how long you have been attached to Miss Phoebe?
31266May I take you to some very agreeable ladies?
31266Miss Livvy, do you think there is any hope for me?
31266Miss Livvy, ma''am, what is this about the moon?
31266Miss Livvy, you go to the ball?
31266Miss Livvy?
31266Miss Phoebe, it is you?
31266Miss Phoebe, what did you omit from your letters that you had such young blackguards as that to terrify you?
31266Miss Phoebe, when did you cease to care for me?
31266Miss Susan, I rejoice to find no change in you; and Miss Phoebe-- Miss Phoebe of the ringlets-- I hope there be as little change in her?
31266Miss Susan, can not we turn all these maps and horrors out till the vacation is over?
31266Miss Susan, do you mean that V. B. has declared?
31266Miss Susan, do you see who accompanies me?
31266Miss Susan, does she care for me still?
31266Miss Susan, how do you do, ma''am?
31266Mr. Brown, I wonder why you have been so kind to my sister and me?
31266Mr. Brown, is it a jest?
31266Mr. Brown, what is it you have to tell us?
31266My dear, it is hard for you, but have you any right to keep them apart?
31266My dear, what is to be done about her?
31266My love, has he offered?
31266My love, my dear, what terrible thing has he said to you?
31266My passion for Miss Livvy?
31266Nay, ma''am, how do you do?
31266No sweetheart?
31266Not even you?
31266Not to be able to tell him all, would it not be hard?
31266Not yet?
31266Noticing what, Miss Livvy?
31266Oh, Susan, what did he say?
31266Oh, Valentine Brown, how could you?
31266Oh, sir, do you think some pretty gentleman might be partial to me at the ball?
31266Oh, where are my pretty curls?''
31266Or Miss Phoebe?
31266Perhaps I may venture to present myself, Miss-- Miss----?
31266Phoebe, did you see who it is?
31266Phoebe, has Captain Brown been apprised of Miss Livvy''s illness?
31266Phoebe, how are we to live with the quartern loaf at one and tenpence?
31266Phoebe, how can you be so cruel?
31266Phoebe, how many are fourteen and seventeen?
31266Phoebe, how much have we left?
31266Phoebe, if a herring and a half cost three ha''pence, how many for elevenpence?
31266Phoebe, why not marry him?
31266Phoebe?
31266Please, ma''am, may I take it off now?
31266Sergeant, have you killed people?
31266Shall we draw up the advertisement for the reopening of the school?
31266She is not here?
31266Sir?
31266Sister, did his face change?
31266So I am dashing, Miss Susan?
31266So that he might offer to me out of pity, Susan?
31266Surely not Captain Brown?
31266Surely you remember little Livvy, Mary?
31266Susan, another offer[ Transcriber''s note: officer?]
31266Susan, what was it?
31266Susan, why does thirty seem so much more than twenty- nine?
31266The heroic Brown?
31266The money; why did you not let me tell him?
31266The picnics?
31266The recruiting sergeant?
31266The remark was humorous, was it not?
31266The spinet, ma''am, seems quite herself to- day; I trust the ottoman passed a good night?
31266Then by what right, ma''am, does he interfere?
31266Then why do you do it?
31266Then why fight him?
31266They-- they did not go in to see Livvy?
31266To begin with, what is Miss Livvy''s malady?
31266To spoil it?
31266To your sister?
31266To- day?
31266Under the shock, would he have surrendered his palm for punishment?
31266V. B.?
31266Was I born to be confined within these four walls?
31266Was he not most silent and gloomy when we said she was gone out?
31266We are not to see your niece?
31266We know not, sir, whether to offer you our felicitations?
31266What am I to do?
31266What book is it, Phoebe?
31266What can you mean?
31266What do you know of love?
31266What girls?
31266What has Thomas done?
31266What has happened?
31266What is algebra exactly; is it those three cornered things?
31266What is it?
31266What is that?
31266What is too horrible?
31266What will you do now?
31266Where am I?
31266Who is this happy man?
31266Who is to take off their wooden legs of an evening, Miss Susan?
31266Who would dare?
31266Why do they delay with the cordial?
31266Why do they not say Miss Livvy has gone home?
31266Why do you look at me so strangely?
31266Why has she done this?
31266Why has this deception been kept up so long?
31266Why have they departed so hurriedly, sir?
31266Why impossible?
31266Why is this trick being played upon me?
31266Why not, ma''am?
31266Why will they admit no physician into her presence?
31266Will you leave the army now?
31266William Smith says it is fifteen; and he is such a big boy, do you think I ought to contradict him?
31266Would it be seemly, Miss Fanny?
31266Would you like to see it?
31266Yes?
31266You are going to the wars?
31266You are not distraught, are you?
31266You are sure of that?
31266You are to take me?
31266You call this home?
31266You do not deny, ma''am, that you are Miss Phoebe?
31266You false woman, what do you mean?
31266You have come to recall old memories?
31266You have seen Miss Phoebe, sir?
31266You have summoned the apothecary at last, I trust, Phoebe?
31266You know everything?
31266You mean-- a follower-- in the kitchen?
31266You remember me, do n''t you?
31266You seem surprised?
31266You suggest our retiring, sir?
31266You think they did not see you?
31266You who are torturing me with every word, what have you done to Miss Phoebe?
31266You will wear it, my love, wo n''t you?
31266You, Miss Phoebe?
31266You, ma''am, or me?
31266You_ think_?
31266Your sweetheart?
31266_ Still_, ma''am?
31266sister, who am I?
63045And I shall give up everything?
63045And about the inscription?
63045And did you,asked Miss Mason grimly,"assist him?"
63045And has it all,she asked,"been just as delightful as I prophesied?"
63045And how are you? 63045 And how did you find out that the child''s real name was Philippa?"
63045And if I refuse?
63045And later?
63045And loving it like that you give it up?
63045And may I have a cup?
63045And may we accept this invitation wholesale?
63045And not attempt to see me-- you promise?
63045And now you''ll take one?
63045And now,she said,"are you ready for the metamorphosis-- to re- paint me as a blue lady?"
63045And so,he ended, smiling,"you mean to keep this waif?"
63045And till then?
63045And what, my dear,she said,"did you know of him?"
63045And when the artist is found,queried Christopher,"may I ask what are your intentions towards him?
63045And where is he now?
63045And where,he asked,"did you find the child?"
63045And who next?
63045And who,she asked,"is this?"
63045And why,asked the Duchessa,"is he not taking London by storm?"
63045And,said Barnabas, speaking in a low voice,"you brought us in here because of Pippa?"
63045Are you going to take an unfurnished studio? 63045 Are you-- content?"
63045Barnabas wo n''t mind, will you, Barnabas? 63045 Barnabas, is n''t it beautiful, but, oh, very beautiful?"
63045Because-- of what I said?
63045Been lonely, little girl?
63045But ca n''t one be mistaken in the belief that one can do something?
63045But what have you done with the picture?
63045But where does she live?
63045But you''re not lonely now?
63045But, Paul, dear,she said,"why did n''t you tell me long ago?"
63045But, dearest,he said, when she had ended,"do you realize what you are giving up?
63045But,asked Christopher,"you are not thinking of again entering the holy bonds of matrimony?"
63045But,she went on,"you do n''t understand the rest of my action?"
63045But-- but-- I simply couldn''t----"But, my dear, why not?
63045By the way,he said suddenly,"did you read the account of the exhibition of pictures at the Grafton Galleries?
63045By the way,said Barnabas,"what is your mistress''s name?"
63045Ca n''t you get out of it, though?
63045Can it be fairly said that one has been given the opportunity if it is truly impossible to accept it, which I imagine''too late''would signify?
63045Can the woolly jackets be put on one side, and may I fetch my palette?
63045Can we get a four- wheeler?
63045Can you understand it?
63045Christopher, darling,she cried,"is that you?
63045Christopher,said Sara, suddenly and quite seriously,"do you think I shall ever marry again?"
63045Could I see her for a moment?
63045Dear aunt,_ cui bono_? 63045 Did n''t you?"
63045Did you have a good time in Devonshire?
63045Did you see her eyes?
63045Do you count my love as little as that?
63045Do you do anything yourself in that way?
63045Do you ever notice my moods? 63045 Do you ever talk sense?"
63045Do you know the man?
63045Do you live here always?
63045Do you see it?
63045Do you think she might come?
63045Does n''t a likeness strike you?
63045Does n''t the opportunity sometimes arrive too late?
63045For me?
63045For the poor?
63045From a painter to a----?
63045God, why did n''t you let me die with my baby?
63045Going away?
63045Got a young man?
63045Had he got a violin?
63045Have you been lonely?
63045Have you,asked Miss Mason,"any idea where the child was left?"
63045He bought it, then?
63045Hope you did n''t overwalk to- day?
63045How can you live if I do n''t know where you are?
63045How did Jasper come to tell you our story?
63045How did you find out?
63045How did you know?
63045How do you know all this?
63045However, if you wo n''t go, where is my knitting? 63045 I only wanted to know if we were near the address I gave you?"
63045I suppose people will always laugh at me?
63045I suppose,she said slowly,"that Jasper told you our story-- it''s a sordid little story, is n''t it-- and you wanted to help?"
63045I wonder,she said quietly,"who was her mother?"
63045I?
63045In what way?
63045Is Mrs. Merton at home?
63045Is it not wonderful?
63045Is it the influence of the morning, the wings of a white butterfly, or the wild- rose face of that child?
63045Is n''t it?
63045Is n''t one ever too old? 63045 Is n''t that rather ridiculous?"
63045Is that a gentle reminder to me of my manners, or a query as to my health? 63045 Is there anything more I can do for you, ma''am?"
63045It''s hardly worth while to trouble, is it? 63045 May I further ask to whom the portrait is to be presented?"
63045May I keep it?
63045May I now give you my reasons and my excuse for my action? 63045 May I smoke?"
63045May I,said Barnabas,"say just how the situation strikes me?"
63045May she?
63045More beautiful than the others?
63045More than you care for me?
63045Mr. Treherne,she said,"are n''t you longing to say''I told you so''?"
63045My dear,said Miss Mason quietly,"are you sure he would n''t?
63045My dear,she then said suddenly,"what is the matter?"
63045No?
63045Paul and Michael?
63045Paul,she said steadily,"what is it?"
63045Paul?
63045Permanently?
63045Pippa lives in studio number seven with Miss Mason, do n''t you, Pippa? 63045 Pippa?"
63045Read the account of the wedding?
63045Ready?
63045Return or single, ma''am?
63045Sall I pose for you?
63045See who it is, will you?
63045Shall I be in the way?
63045Shall I go away?
63045Shall we paint this infant?
63045Shall we say Tuesday afternoon for our call?
63045She cared for him then?
63045She not paint se altogezzer?
63045So you saw the likeness too?
63045So you will come?
63045Studio let?
63045Sugar?
63045Tell me,said Bridget,"what Jasper told you?"
63045That you, Pippa?
63045The Benevolent refused it, did n''t they?
63045The Duchessa di Corleone at home?
63045The colour?
63045The question is, will you spare her?
63045The will?
63045Then she is unhappy, too?
63045Then the child,asked Barnabas,"is no relation of yours?"
63045Then where is it?
63045Then you are married?
63045Then you are prepared,he asked,"to tell your husband everything?
63045Then you''ll buy new things?
63045Then you''re not angry?
63045Then,she said,"it is the colour of the dress that is wrong?"
63045Then----?
63045There is n''t,she said with a note of anxiety in her voice,"anything wrong with Jasper?"
63045There was no entail on the estate?
63045They were going to Biarritz, were n''t they?
63045Think so?
63045Think so?
63045To find an artist for you?
63045Unaccustomed?
63045Was-- was I horrible?
63045We met-- when was it-- last May?
63045Well, Pippa,asked Sara,"and what do you think of my portrait?"
63045Well, why should n''t it be?
63045Well?
63045Well?
63045Well?
63045What am I to do?
63045What do you mean?
63045What do you mean?
63045What do you think of it?
63045What do you think?
63045What happened next?
63045What is he doing at the moment?
63045What is he like?
63045What is his name?
63045What is it, Kiddy?
63045What is to be the end of it?
63045What must we do?
63045What name shall I say,''m?
63045What was your idea when you came to me?
63045What would I have looked like if I''d been caught?
63045What''s funny?
63045What''s going on here?
63045What''s inside?
63045What''s to be done?
63045What, ze garden?
63045What?
63045When did you last have food?
63045Where did you learn to make curtsies, child? 63045 Where did you lose him?"
63045Where is she?
63045Where is yours?
63045Where on earth have you two been?
63045Where will you take your studio?
63045Where''ave you been?
63045Which would you value most-- my opinion or the opinion of those two girls?
63045Who did it?
63045Who is it?
63045Who is the portrait?
63045Who sent you to me?
63045Who''s taken the studio?
63045Who,she asked,"is Pippa?"
63045Who,she asked,"is that?"
63045Who,she asked,"was Stella?"
63045Why do n''t you get a new one,he said half irritably,"or at least cover it with a tea- cloth?
63045Why do n''t you go and see her?
63045Why do n''t you take her out of her surroundings then?
63045Why do you hope so, Christopher?
63045Why not?
63045Why not?
63045Will you come again and see me?
63045Will you come inside?
63045Will you have it,he asked,"in memory of your visit here?"
63045Will you have it?
63045Will you not,said the old man courteously,"follow Pippa''s example and enter the garden by the door?
63045Wo n''t the lady be a trifle overwhelmed?
63045Wonder why this has been sent?
63045Wot is it, mum?
63045Would you like to give your time to the work?
63045Would you like to see the place where he worked?
63045Yes, dear?
63045Yes, ma''am; but----"Does he live in London?
63045Yes?
63045Yes?
63045Yes?
63045Yes?
63045Yes?
63045You are sorry?
63045You do n''t mean to say Pippa climbed up here?
63045You do n''t often see it, do you?
63045You guessed?
63045You hate me?
63045You knew Philippe?
63045You know that oil- portrait that hangs by my mantelpiece?
63045You mean----?
63045You mean----?
63045You still remember our conversation long ago?
63045You think that after all there may be some advantage in her baptism?
63045You were thinkin''to offer the chance to me?
63045You will accept, Paul?
63045You''ll be meanin''----?
63045You''re cold?
63045You''ve sold this portrait, have n''t you?
63045You-- you could never care?
63045Your mistress at home?
63045Your mistress in?
63045_ Bien?_she queried.
63045_ Quel domage!_ You could n''t climb, ze wall ver''much too''igh?
63045''Where?''
63045And again, when painting some piece of flame- coloured drapery, he would hear the words:"How did you try to help me?
63045And now, little girl, how about bed?"
63045And once more I ask you, how can one attain to the distinction of portrait painter if one does not paint portraits?"
63045And then she added quietly,"and your wife died too?"
63045And then suddenly:"What is your name?"
63045And will you think me a pig if I run away for a little while and tell Paul?"
63045Anything I can get for you?
63045But did you ever see such a garden?"
63045By the way,"he went on,"no one has called to claim the ring yet, I suppose?"
63045CHAPTER XXIX SOME TWISTED THREADS"Barnabas,"said Miss Mason one day-- it was the fourteenth of October--"what''s the matter with Paul?"
63045Corner seat facing the engine, did you say?"
63045Did you ever know such a trying situation for a luxury- loving and curious woman in your life?"
63045Did you give her ze ring?"
63045Do the others know?"
63045Do you still care for your wife?"
63045Do you think I care what the world would say of me?"
63045Do you think creation is slither?
63045Ever made bread and milk in your life before?"
63045Had he left behind him this scrap of humanity, holding perhaps a spirit as poetical and intense as his own, to battle with the world?
63045Have you ever heard her?
63045Have you ever posed before?"
63045Have you stuck the Messonnier painting on an envelope in mistake for a postage stamp and put it in the pillar- box?
63045Higgins?"
63045I----""How did you try to help me?"
63045If it is not impertinent of me, may I congratulate you on it?"
63045If you believe as I do that we belong to each other for time and eternity, then how can you----?"
63045Is everything perfectly clear?"
63045Is he as nice as his name?"
63045Is it worth while to you, for your husband''s sake, to give me the pleasure of arranging it?"
63045Is n''t vat a nice story?"
63045Is not that enough?
63045Is there a good fire?
63045It does n''t make much difference to us, does it?"
63045It makes it difficult to believe in an over- ruling Providence, does n''t it?
63045It seemed forced from her:"Did you have a child?"
63045It''s odd, is n''t it?"
63045Luke did not know him?"
63045My dear, was I wrong?
63045Paper or anything?
63045Shall you be busy to- morrow?"
63045She is bound to have a studio somewhere if she wants to paint, and why not among us?
63045So he merely said lightly:"Where is she now?"
63045So the Jenkinses have gone, have they?
63045Suppose there''s room in that ridiculous kitchen for you both?"
63045The colour''s all right, but what on earth is the thing worth?
63045The question is whether you will be too bored with further sittings?"
63045Then she turned to Miss Mason"What sall I call you?"
63045There are a good many in Italy, are n''t there?"
63045Therefore, will you permit me, from the regions of the peaceful dead, to offer to you my felicitations?
63045What do you hope to find on this side?"
63045What does your work cost you?
63045What is yours?"
63045What name''m?"
63045What use else to write?
63045What was ze boy''s name?"
63045What were your plans?
63045What''s the trouble?
63045Where are the others?"
63045Where did you say the house was?"
63045Where was I before you interrupted?"
63045Which do you want most-- your child whom you have never seen or your husband?"
63045Who was he to sit in judgment on his fellow- men?
63045Who was he?"
63045Why make another representation of them?"
63045Why on earth did n''t your friend Shottover take the place?
63045Why should n''t you accept them now?"
63045Will you come inside''m?"
63045Will you come into the sitting- room?
63045Window up or down?
63045You do n''t understand what I mean?
63045You know he has lost a good bit of money?"
63045You shudder?
63045You will still let me come and see you?"
63045You wo n''t mind if we keep on the tour till the end of June, will you?
63045and will you have some of the furniture sent up from your old home?"
63045asked Alan,"or by the day?"
63045asked Barnabas, looking at Miss Mason,"or may I stay?"
63045little girl?"
63045said Paul, standing near the luncheon table while Pippa gazed upon the portrait,"what do you think of it?"
63045she asked, and her voice was truculent because her spirit was quaking,"and wot can I do for you, sir?"
63045what''s this?
41801A parson''s wife?
41801A professional nurse?
41801Along the road?
41801And she sent you here?
41801Are we?
41801Are you going to have a party?
41801Are you going to have baby brought down here this afternoon?
41801Are you willing I should have it?
41801Arrange, is it?
41801But do n''t you want me to finish the chapter?
41801But has anybody spoken to Deacon Richards?
41801But how should anybody know anything about his affairs?
41801But its mother?
41801But suppose she cries herself sick?
41801But supposing the baby cries?
41801But what about her?
41801But what can I do?
41801But what did she expect you to do?
41801But what for is ye tellin''me that, when ye do n''t belave it''s wrong?
41801But why do n''t you have a fire?
41801But why should she write to you?
41801But would she give the baby up?
41801But, Mrs. Webbe,I said as gently as I could,"do n''t you think the fact that baby has no mother, and must bear that, will make her need love more?"
41801By the town authorities?
41801Ca n''t you pick up the room a little while I feed the baby?
41801Ca n''t you see I am fighting for you? 41801 Cousin Mehitable?"
41801Deacon Richards,I said,"why do you freeze the people so in the vestry?"
41801Deacon Webbe,I said at last, when I could not bear the silence any longer,"what is the matter?"
41801Did he say why he was going?
41801Did she understand?
41801Did you ever hear of such foolishness?
41801Did you expect me to go down and nurse the girl?
41801Did you know Tom Webbe''s gone off?
41801Did you speak to her?
41801Do n''t you know about the Brownrigs that live in that little red house on the Rim Road?
41801Do n''t you see everybody else knew it was a case to be let alone?
41801Do n''t you think, Miss Ruth,she said to me yesterday,"that you could persuade your mother to see Mr. Saychase?
41801Do n''t you think, Mrs. Webbe,I asked, trying to look as sunny as a June day,"that baby is rather young to get harm from me or my heresies?
41801Do they train''em?
41801Do you believe that?
41801Do you feel set up because you have seen the West that so few of us have visited?
41801Do you know where he has gone?
41801Do you suppose after that I''d have her for my wife? 41801 Do you suppose that I should have come of myself?"
41801Do you suppose,he asked doggedly,"now I am free I''d consent to marry any woman but you?
41801Do you tell me not to marry her?
41801Do you think I could have ruined any man''s life for that? 41801 Do you think I want her to live?
41801Do you think then,I asked him, doing my best to keep back the tears,"that it can give any pleasure to a kind Heavenly Father?
41801Do you think,he said,"that I would have an illegitimate brat near you?
41801Do you write to Tom?
41801Does that mean that your life is regulated by the gossips? 41801 From Boston?"
41801George,I asked, entirely at random,"did n''t you say that the Miss West you met at Franklin is a cousin of the Watsons?"
41801Get by what?
41801Give it to her how?
41801Has anybody been to see you?
41801Has anything happened?
41801Has the Brownrig girl a child?
41801Have you thought, Miss Ruth,the Deacon asked at length in the growing dark,"what a responsibility you are taking upon yourself in having that baby?"
41801Her mother has gone off?
41801How dare you drag me about?
41801How did it happen?
41801How did you dare to say that my son was the father of your brat? 41801 How did you hear that?"
41801How did you know about it?
41801How do you dare to do it?
41801How do you like going out nursing?
41801How is your mother to- day?
41801How long is it that we have been engaged?
41801How long is it that we have been engaged?
41801How much is it for her father''s sake?
41801How should I know what time it went to bed?
41801I am fond of you and I am fond of baby; but if baby were big enough and talked this silly way about you, do you suppose I would allow it? 41801 I do n''t know, George,"was my reply,"what business it is of everybody''s; and if it were, why should I not be fond of Tom?"
41801I should have passed pretty quickly then; but what did Tom Webbe do?
41801I thank you, Ruth,he said,"but do n''t you see I had better not give folks any occasion to think of me at all just now?
41801If it has to bear a shame all its life, whose fault is it, its own or yours? 41801 If it is n''t your business,"she demanded sharply,"what are you here for?
41801Is he Overseer?
41801Is n''t it a glorious day?
41801Is n''t it a pleasure to see you?
41801Is she going to die?
41801Is the baby gone?
41801Is the favor to be a reward for the fault or for confessing it?
41801It is n''t my fault that I''m his son, is it?
41801It''s a pity, of course; but you would n''t have us so little interested in each other as not to notice the things we hear, would you?
41801It''s the business of the neighbors that she''s sure to ruin her husband if she keeps on with her extravagance, is n''t it? 41801 John Deland, that owns the smoke- houses?"
41801Judge Privet took you abroad several times, did n''t he?
41801Jule? 41801 Kathie,"I asked,"did you see Mr. Weston coming when you jumped in?"
41801Kathie,I said,"do you mind staying here with baby while I take a little walk?
41801Kathie,said I,"how much of that performance yesterday was real, and how much was humbug?
41801Keeping her?
41801Lawk- a- marcy, child,she said, coming up to the bed,"if you was dying do you think you''d have strength to holler like that?"
41801Look here, Ruth, what''s the good of pretending? 41801 Meaning that I can talk of nothing but books?"
41801Meant?
41801Miss Ruth,she burst out,"ai n''t you going to marry George Weston?"
41801No intention of marrying her?
41801No worse than to break one''s word, is it?
41801O Tom,I asked in despair,"why do n''t you help me?
41801Of course not; why should you?
41801Oh, Miss Ruth,she cried out, as soon as I turned,"oh, wo n''t you come out here?
41801Oh, Tom,I said,"are you quite sure this is what you ought to do?"
41801Oh, ca n''t you do something for me? 41801 Oh, ca n''t you pray and keep me from hell, Miss Ruth?"
41801Oh, dear,I asked,"what is it now?
41801Oh, here you are, are you?
41801Oh, where do such trash come from ever?
41801Oh, you ca n''t, ca n''t you?
41801Or do you only wish to believe it?
41801Pleases me?
41801Rosa,I said severely,"have you been walking Thomasine to sleep?
41801Rosa,I said,"do n''t you believe in your church?"
41801Ruth,he asked me at last, with an odd hoarseness in his voice,"do you want George Weston to marry that woman?"
41801Ruth,he cried out,"what''s the use of all this talk?
41801Ruth,the deacon asked, almost before we had shaken hands,"did you know Tom had gone away?"
41801Sent to Boston for a nurse for that creature? 41801 Sent you here?"
41801She has written to you about me?
41801She''ll get me well?
41801Sitting here alone?
41801So as not to follow it?
41801So he has taken advantage of your mothering his baby, has he?
41801Suppose the husband had lived?
41801That Brownrig girl?
41801The blacksmith?
41801Then I shall get well?
41801Then what for''s she all the time twitting me about Ranny Gargan?
41801Then why do you do it?
41801Then you do n''t write to him?
41801Then you do think it''s better for baby to be with me than with her grandmother?
41801Then you refuse to let me have her?
41801Think what was Miss West?
41801To blame me?
41801To know what?
41801To you?
41801Tom Webbe said that? 41801 Tom,"I asked him desperately,"are you never going to get over this bitter feeling?
41801Tom,I broke out at last, when I could endure it no longer,"did you know that Mrs. Weston is here, very ill?"
41801Tom?
41801Well?
41801Well?
41801What Brownrig girl?
41801What are you doing?
41801What are you knitting?
41801What can I do, Miss Charlotte?
41801What did Mrs. Weston say?
41801What did he say?
41801What did they do?
41801What do you know about how I feel?
41801What do you know about marrying anyhow, Hannah Elsmore? 41801 What do you mean?"
41801What do you mean?
41801What do you mean?
41801What do you want me to do?
41801What for do n''t I mean it?
41801What for would I have somebody making my marriage? 41801 What has Aunt Naomi sent you for now?"
41801What has happened?
41801What has she been doing?
41801What if she had?
41801What in the world do you mean?
41801What is before her?
41801What is it now?
41801What is it now?
41801What is it, Aunt Naomi?
41801What is it?
41801What is that?
41801What is the matter, Ruth?
41801What is the matter?
41801What made you think anything had happened?
41801What makes you think that it was Miss West?
41801What pleases you?
41801What pleases you?
41801What shall I do?
41801What was he doing there? 41801 What''s George Weston taking that West girl over to Canton for?"
41801What?
41801When you live in Boston,she said,"I shall"--"Suppose I should not live in Boston?"
41801Where do you keep yourself, Tom?
41801Where''s he gone?
41801Where''s the baby?
41801Which Deacon Daniel?
41801Who gave you a right to order me round, Ruth Privet? 41801 Who said anything had happened?"
41801Who''s wanting to have their own way, Miss Privet?
41801Why did n''t she come herself?
41801Why do n''t you have a fire in the vestry?
41801Why do n''t you put up a sign? 41801 Why not go down to his mill in broad daylight?"
41801Why not let somebody else take care of the vestry then, if you want a fire?
41801Why should n''t he beat his own wife when she deserved it,Rosa demanded,"and she nothing but a hateful, sharp- nosed pig?"
41801Why should n''t he take her?
41801Why, Kathie,I asked,"what is the matter?"
41801Why, Kathie,I said, amazed at her excitement,"what in the world are you saying?
41801Why, who ever thought of anything so preposterous?
41801Will she come in here?
41801Will they? 41801 Will you be quiet?"
41801Wo n''t remarry her?
41801Would Tom Webbe want to have anything to do with the child?
41801You are not afraid of wills, then?
41801You are not angry, Ruth?
41801You are willing to share her with her father even if you do adopt her?
41801You can keep the child if you are so determined,he said,"though why you should want to I ca n''t conceive; but why need you adopt it?
41801You did n''t mean for me to come, did you?
41801You do n''t call this living, do you? 41801 You do n''t mean,"I burst out before I thought,"that you would n''t have had Tom marry her?"
41801You do n''t mean,he pleaded piteously,"you''ve stopped caring for me?"
41801You do n''t suppose,was her response, with a chuckle,"that he''d give up the key to anybody else, do you?"
41801You have n''t any of you traveled in the West, have you?
41801You have no more business, have you, George?
41801You mean,I returned, full of fun and mischief,"that the idea of my offering myself to you was too horrible?
41801You what, Ruth?
41801You will keep her?
41801You wo n''t try to stop him?
41801You would n''t let her die with Mrs. Bagley, then?
41801Your own or somebody''s else?
41801About what sort?
41801After all, what was there to suspect?
41801Am I so changeable that if I had been his wife I should have tried him by my severe standards, and then judged him unworthy?
41801And yet-- What is the use of all this?
41801But then-- has he not been happy?
41801Ca n''t you save me?
41801Can you fool yourself into thinking that you have n''t had a lucky escape from a man that''s in every way your inferior?
41801Can you forgive me for being baby''s father?"
41801Could n''t the whole matter at least be left till she is old enough to know the meaning of words?"
41801Could n''t you persuade her she''s too young to think about such things?"
41801Cousin Mehitable is the only near relative I have in the world, and why should I not be with her?
41801Did you make a shroud or put on a dress?"
41801Do I mean that the time has come when George would not mind hurting my feelings?
41801Do n''t I know that for this ten years you and Aunt Martha have n''t spent half your income?
41801Do n''t you remember Maria Harmon used to say that to a pious soul a funeral was a heavenly picnic?"
41801Do you agree?"
41801Do you think I''d ever forgive her for dragging Tom into the mud?
41801Do you think I''ve no human feelings?
41801Do you think we had better call on her?"
41801Do you think you are doing a favor to Tom by keeping this disreputable thing alive?"
41801Do you want to kill her?"
41801Do you?"
41801Does she think any person with style would let her into the house?"
41801Does this mean that married love goes through such a change?
41801Even if I were convinced he would be happier and better with me,--and how can I tell that?--what is there I could do?
41801Father would say,"Why should we?"
41801Have you seen Aunt Naomi this week?
41801How can I run the risk of having another scene like the one on Friday?
41801How could one reason with her, or what was there to say?
41801How dare you decide what God will do?"
41801How do the skates work?"
41801How does she think I''d get anything better?
41801How long is it since you heard any music, or saw a picture, or went to the theatre, or had any society?"
41801How soon do you go to Franklin to the annual conference?"
41801I am ready to do anything I can do, but what is there?
41801I beg your pardon, Mr. Thurston, but does n''t what has happened prove she is too high- strung to be troubled with theology yet?
41801I had almost forgotten her yearly missionary effort, so that when she appeared I said with the utmost cheerfulness and unconcern,"What is it, Hannah?"
41801I have taken out this book to try to set down-- to set down what?
41801I hope you do n''t put her on a level with real folks, do you?"
41801I might bring back that other talk out of the dull blur of pain, but where would be the good?
41801I must do something; but what can I do?
41801I must work it out alone; but what can I say?
41801I remembered the question he asked me when he came back from Franklin after he had seen her:"How long have we been engaged?"
41801I was ashamed of him and ashamed of myself, and very angry; and when he said he''d make me marry him sometime, I told him"--"Well?"
41801I wonder if a woman can ever be entirely just to another woman who has been praised by the man she cares for?
41801I wonder if he had any notion of my feeling?
41801I wonder what I ought to do?
41801I wonder what I should do?
41801I wonder why it is that nature, which makes almost any other ruin picturesque, never succeeds in making the wreck of humanity anything but hideous?
41801I wonder-- Well, George has shown that he is not what I thought him, and do I care for him less?
41801I would have given anything I possessed to comfort him, but what could I say?
41801I''ll show you a daguerreotype some time; though, after all, what difference does it make?
41801If Providence is willing to take the creature out of the way, what are you trying to keep her alive for?"
41801If he should,--if by a pretty face he forgets all the years that we have belonged to each other, what is there to do?
41801Is it a boy or a girl?"
41801Is this your house?"
41801May I say something that may sound impertinent?"
41801Or is it that I have been so happy myself I have not realized how the long engagement was wearying him?
41801Shall I tell Julia you have come?"
41801The answer to the question in the New England Primer,''Who is the meekest man?''
41801The girl watched me with eager eyes, and at last, as I came near the bed, she asked suddenly,--"Did he send you?"
41801To that crowd?"
41801We certainly hail the thought of new experiences in the body; why not out of it?
41801What affair of yours is it, anyway?"
41801What can I do for her?
41801What can I do to influence George''s wife?
41801What can I say?
41801What could I say to a father mourning the sin and the disgrace of his only son?
41801What could there be?
41801What did he tell me that night?
41801What did you put on her?
41801What did you say to him?"
41801What do I know about it anyway?
41801What do I know of the intolerable life that has not self- respect, not even cleanliness of mind or body?
41801What does she know about it, anyway?"
41801What else should you do?"
41801What is the matter?"
41801What is there she can hope for?
41801What right have you to interfere?
41801What time has been settled on for the church fair?"
41801What tramp or beggar or clodhopper have you picked out?
41801What''s happened?"
41801When I had finished she lay quiet for some time, and then she said,--"May I say one thing, Ruth, about George?"
41801Where are all the Christians and church members?
41801Where did they come from?"
41801Where there are''many mansions,''do n''t you think there may be one even for those who did not see the truth, if they were honest in their blindness?"
41801Where''s that baby going to get any religious training from you, Ruth Privet?"
41801Whether I concealed anything from her or not I can not tell; but after all why should I care?
41801Why do n''t you ask Tom Webbe?"
41801Why do n''t you have a fire?"
41801Why should I want her alive?
41801Why should I write it?
41801Why should I?"
41801Why should he give his address to me?
41801Why should he know more about it than you do?
41801Why should he not like to talk of a pretty girl?
41801Why should it tease me so?
41801Why should n''t they?
41801Why should we be more ready to think of the unknown as dreadful than as delightful?
41801Why should we not be afraid?
41801Why, can you honestly think now for a moment of marrying him without feeling your backbone all gooseflesh?"
41801Will eight o''clock do?
41801Will he by and by have lived through his first love for his wife, and if so what will be left?
41801Yet what can I do to help it?
41801Yet why not put it down fearlessly, since I have begun?
41801You remember about that, do n''t you?
41801You would n''t let the girl die alone, would you?"
40735A long journey,I repeated;"and why not?"
40735A million of them?
40735And further_more_,said Mr. Shears, insinuatingly,"what I want to know is: why has she got them pitchers a- hanging around the school- room walls?
40735And if they do-- what then?
40735And the great stone of Iris- Iris?
40735And the subscription price?
40735And what did you prophesy, Uncle Weatherby?
40735And what was that?
40735And what was that?
40735And where,I ask,"was that?"
40735And who is Maggie?
40735And who_ was_ Michael the Angelo?
40735And why?
40735And yet,said the scientist,"you-- you are quite unattached, are you not?"
40735And you have already--?
40735Are they not?
40735Are you quite sure about it, Bertram?
40735At Rug--"What will visitors say? 40735 B- what?"
40735Been up the Statue of Liberty, I suppose?
40735Bertram,said my wife one evening as we sat together by the lamp,"what do you think Letitia says?"
40735But I mean-- don''t you think she may have loved him?
40735But are you sure they are primroses?
40735But do n''t you remember Robin Hood and his merry men?
40735But how did you do it?
40735But how?
40735But the cost?
40735But what are they for?
40735But when did you think of it?
40735But who will buy it?
40735But why do n''t you ask God to send you a little boy all your own, just four years old like me, so we could play together? 40735 But why, Bertram?"
40735But why?
40735But you''ll come, father?
40735But you?
40735But,I said,"do you trust--""Trust her?
40735Child,he said, looking her keenly in the eyes,"do you find it so hard to brave that lion?"
40735Come,I said,"have you no faith, Letitia?"
40735Daughter,she would say,"where is your hat?"
40735Dictionary''s handy, is n''t it?
40735Did Mr. Bob send them?
40735Did Mr. Bob send these Bombay papers?
40735Did anything famous happen there?
40735Did n''t you guess?
40735Did n''t you know?
40735Did she always tell you that?
40735Did she really remember you?
40735Did she tell you that?
40735Did what?
40735Did you guess where you were going?
40735Did you look in the P''s?
40735Did you notice any bobolinks?
40735Did you say Miss Peggy Neal, suh?
40735Did, hey? 40735 Do I look forlorn?
40735Do I look like an ogress?
40735Do they fill the box?
40735Do they smoke at your parties?
40735Do you know what I asked him?
40735Do you know what I asked that man?
40735Do you like''Sordello''?
40735Do you object,I asked,"to your aunt''s best Sunday hat?"
40735Do you remember how I called to you, and came running back?
40735Do you remember me?
40735Do you remember this ancient dame?
40735Do you remember when I went to school to you? 40735 Do you remember, Letitia, how you and Robin rested here?"
40735Do you suppose Tom put in his name like that?
40735Do you?
40735Doctor,he said,"how does a man perform some marvellous surgical feat, which no one had ever done, or dreamed of doing, before?
40735Doctor,said Peggy Neal, rising again,"you wo n''t mind waiting outside a moment?
40735Does he ever grumble at you?
40735Father,he said, doggedly,"it''s about-- it''s about--""Yes?"
40735Had you thought of that?
40735Have we not Sun Dial?
40735Have you cloth,she asked,"of the shade called Lincoln green?"
40735Hiram must be getting on then?
40735Hm-- what, father?
40735How cool_ are_ the moors?
40735How do you get on with your Latin?
40735How is it you''re here? 40735 How many did you swallow?"
40735How old are you?
40735How shall I know?
40735How shall we fill it?
40735How then shall you escape sadness and regret? 40735 I be the horsey?"
40735I beg pardon?
40735I dread the winter-- don''t you?
40735I thought my legs were so short?
40735I? 40735 I?"
40735If I may be permitted,he said,"to repeat my humble question-- may I ask, was it your money-- that bought-- the pictures?"
40735Indeed?
40735Is Miss Neal at home?
40735Is Mr. Hiram Ptolemy in?
40735Is it a battle- field?
40735Is it a castle?
40735Is it customary here, Peggy?
40735Is it just a town, then?
40735Is it thinking, then?
40735Is my father dead?
40735Is n''t it?
40735Is she--?
40735Is there another Mills Hotel?
40735It''s hard always trying to be-- dominant,she remarked,"is n''t it?"
40735Latin and Greek, of course?
40735Let''s see, that''s Poe, is n''t it?
40735Letitia was fond of Robin, was she not?
40735Letitia,I said, sharply,"what nonsense is this?"
40735Light green or dark green?
40735Loving no one in particular, I have had the time to love every one, do n''t you see? 40735 Might it not incite them to sling- shots?"
40735Miss Neal?
40735Miss who?
40735Mother,I said, coolly,"will you put up some sandwiches?
40735Mr. Butters, what kind of type is this?
40735Mr. Percival,I said, cordially, looking at my watch,"wo n''t you come to dinner?"
40735Must I give up all my fun because a mere girl''s coming?
40735Neal?
40735Never been up the--"What did he say?
40735New York is a great place, is n''t it?
40735No patients, doctor?
40735No?
40735Not much of a talker, though?
40735Now, if the idle young gentleman drawing_ pictures_--"_ Tertia vigilia eruptionem fecerunt_--oh, they did, did they?
40735Of course, of course,he interposed,"but did you ever take up ancient matters to any extent?"
40735Oh, Mr. St. John,she said, while we all sat listening,"I''ve wanted to ask you: how did you come to write_ Sleepington Fair_?"
40735Oh, what is the matter?
40735Oh, would it?
40735Oh,I said,"and did he go to Rugby, sir?"
40735Oh,said he,"is that you, father?"
40735Oh,she answered,"those?"
40735Old friends?
40735Only an hour? 40735 Only six slices, Bertram?
40735Peter, who''s that?
40735Print it, child? 40735 Regular jungles-- eh, father?"
40735Robin Saxeholm?
40735Robin told you?
40735Robin,I said one day, and as casually as I could make my tone,"did you want to tell me anything?
40735Rough?
40735Said? 40735 Say, what do you think I am?
40735Shall I nail the cover on?
40735Shall I write to Peggy?
40735So he lives at a Mills Hotel?
40735So long, father? 40735 So?"
40735Still hatching poems, I suppose?
40735Still,I insist,"you do not prefer it to your own?"
40735Suppose,said Dove,"it should be a girl who bears away sacred fire from your shelf, Letitia?"
40735Surprising?
40735Tavistock? 40735 Tavistock?"
40735Tell me,she urged,"did I presume too much?
40735Tell whom? 40735 The Doone Valley,"I remarked,"would be Devon, would n''t it?"
40735The figure? 40735 The grapes?"
40735Then shall you alter it?
40735Then why not stay?
40735This trip?
40735Those? 40735 To what, then,"piped Jimmy Gallows,"do you attribute your success?"
40735Unattached,he repeated,"by ties of-- the affections?"
40735Was it a conundrum?
40735Well, I rather hoped--"Yes?
40735Well, now, how did you guess it? 40735 Well,"he would say, stopping them as they walked together arm in arm,"if you seek Peter, look for Bertram-- eh?"
40735Well? 40735 Well?"
40735Well?
40735What about water?
40735What are the red lines, father?
40735What can I get for you, dear?
40735What can we do for you this morning?
40735What could he say, my love?
40735What did he say?
40735What did you ask, Bertram?
40735What do I want with a husband then?
40735What do you mean by the next name to Robin?
40735What do you think that little-- that man wants?
40735What do you want?
40735What does he want to choose_ our_ year for? 40735 What does my son care about Michael the Angelo?"
40735What for?
40735What good''11 it do to tell you? 40735 What have I done?"
40735What have_ I_ done?
40735What is wanted?
40735What luck, Bertram?
40735What made you do it?
40735What type?
40735What was the matter with him?
40735What was the promise she made you?
40735What would you like?
40735What''s the difference?
40735What,I asked,"is the figure meant for?"
40735What,he asked,"are drawin''-books_ for_?"
40735What,_ never_?
40735What?
40735When do we start?
40735When were you rough, Bertie?
40735When,I asked,"will it be out?"
40735Where Robin is?
40735Where have you been so long, Letitia?
40735Where is it, Bertram?
40735Where''s Tavistock?
40735Whiskers?
40735Who buys them?
40735Who is this woman?
40735Who knows, my boy? 40735 Who said I did n''t know how to spell it?"
40735Who told you that?
40735Who was Robin?
40735Who wrote them?
40735Who''s that, Peter?
40735Who''s there?
40735Who-- if I may be so bold--and here he raised his voice to the insinuating higher register--"who, may I inquire, paid for them?"
40735Who? 40735 Who_ is_ Miss Primrose?"
40735Who_ was_ this here Michael the Angelo?
40735Whom do we know in New York, Letitia?
40735Why I am going to New York?
40735Why not?
40735Why should you know one?
40735Why tell an idyl, when you can live one, little Chloe, little wild olive? 40735 Why, at Rugby, sir--""And what, pray, has Rugby, or a thousand Rugbys, to do with your wilful disobedience?"
40735Why, confound you, what do you mean by telling me I do n''t know my own business?
40735Why, darn your skin,said Colonel Shears,"why not?
40735Why, do n''t you remember Hiram Ptolemy and Peggy Neal?
40735Why, gentlemen? 40735 Why,"said his mother,"do n''t you know?
40735Will I die?
40735Will I? 40735 Will you come in, suh?"
40735Wouldst thou love God?
40735Yes,said Letitia,"did you know him, too?"
40735Yes?
40735Yes?
40735Yet in lieu of these,Dove once replied,"she has her day''s work and her church and books--""But are they enough for a woman, do you think?"
40735You are?
40735You did?
40735You have heard from him then?
40735You hear from her often, I suppose?
40735You here again?
40735You here, Bertram?
40735You will go, Letitia?
40735You will go?
40735You, Letitia?
40735Your own?
40735_ Did_ I?
40735_ I?_"You,I repeated.
40735_ I_ made you swallow them?
40735_ Rugby!_ And what of Rugby?
40735_ This_ June?
40735_ Us_, Letitia?
40735''You hear often, I suppose?''
40735''_ Are n''t_ you playing, Brown?''
40735Ablative of what?
40735And Mr. Ptolemy-- why can I never remember the name of his hotel?"
40735And if I refuse''em, why, then, they just naturally up and say,''Well, you printed Primrose''s; why not mine?''
40735And what d''I do it for?
40735And what did he say to that?"
40735And why not kiss me?
40735And, in conclusion, I want to ask right here: who''s a- payin''for them there decorations?"
40735Are you hurt?
40735Are you-- are you interested-- in science?"
40735Bob?"
40735Bob?"
40735Bob?"
40735Bob?"
40735But can you tell me, please, if Mr. Hiram De Lancey Percival lives here?"
40735But the addresses?"
40735Butters?"
40735Butters?"
40735Butters?"
40735Butters?"
40735Butters?"
40735Ca n''t you guess, my dear?
40735Ca n''t you speak?"
40735Can you remember that?"
40735D''you think I''ve got time to be talking to every young sprig like you?"
40735Did I not, my son?"
40735Did n''t you know?"
40735Did she never yearn for little old Grassy Ford again?
40735Did you never hear of the_ Vicar of Wakefield_?"
40735Did you see her dress?
40735Did you see the rings on her fingers?
40735Do I look so helpless?"
40735Do all Devonshire roads lead up to Tavistock?"
40735Do n''t you remember those books you left for us?--in our old school- room?--on the shelf?"
40735Do n''t you remember?
40735Do you remember where I sat-- there by the window?
40735Do you want to be speckled like your ugly old mother- hen?"
40735Do you wonder, Bertram?"
40735Does Aunt Letty know?"
40735Eh?
40735Eh?"
40735Good Lord, what hat?"
40735Had ever man so exasperating an antagonist?
40735Had she not spread that slice on Sun Dial, never to forget?
40735Had the modern schools produced an Abraham Lincoln, he wished to know?
40735Have you your grip with you?"
40735He said it was a pity you would never be knighted, and once he drew for you your escutcheon-- you do n''t remember?
40735How did she like New York?
40735How did you guess it?"
40735How had her health been?
40735How is my mother?"
40735How then should any one so coolly virtuous know trial or passion?
40735How''s that?"
40735How''s the old gentleman?"
40735If not quite dead, why were they kept so long a- dying there?
40735Is father home?"
40735Is the first number ready yet?"
40735It was a wonderful journey, I then admit, and I do not blame them for their pridefulness, but what, I ask, would they have done without my map?
40735It would teach them the beauty of manly-- Why do you laugh?"
40735It''s about-- father,_ you''ll_ tell her--""Tell her?"
40735It''s my old sermon of environment, I know; but why are you here?--and why am I?
40735Lord?"
40735Me she ignored at pleasure; could it be possible, I wondered, that she was determined to renounce the whole round world as well?
40735Meanwhile, wo n''t you be seated?"
40735Might not summer- boarders, Letitia asked, bear a surer, more golden harvest than those worn- out fields?
40735Mr. Bob in India?"
40735No school, Letitia?"
40735No?
40735Now what could be troubling the lad, I wondered?
40735Now, that''s nice, is n''t it?
40735Now, who in thunder cares a tinker''s damn for Theocritus, in Grassy Ford?
40735Percival?"
40735Percival?"
40735Percival?"
40735Question: how do authors get their books accepted?_""Yes-- how do they?"
40735Question: how do authors get their books accepted?_""Yes-- how do they?"
40735Remember how Velveteens caught Tom up a tree?"
40735Shall we go into the other room?"
40735She might, perhaps, make a tale or two of the Archer in Lincoln Green, but what is the romance of an archer without the lady in it?
40735Surely so young a saint could have no warm impetuous hours to remember, no sweet abandonment, no pretty idyls-- had she even a spring- time to recall?
40735Tell Aunt Letty what?"
40735Tell what?"
40735That night, when the last guest had departed, I asked Letitia,"Well, what do you think of the author?"
40735The brooks run on so gayly as before, and why not they as well?
40735Then may I ask when you_ made_ them a part of it, Miss Primrose?"
40735To leave at four o''clock, to return at nine and find one open which had been shut before!--is it not the gardener''s morning joy?
40735VI AN OLD FRIEND OF OURS"Oh, I know the town,"I had told them confidently-- had I not been there in 18--?
40735Was I wrong to ask her without consulting you?"
40735Was she quite happy?
40735What could this discord be?
40735What did I say?
40735What do girls talk so long about?
40735What do you say to a summer in England, boy?"
40735What had I to do with tombs?
40735What had they expected, he asked at home?
40735What have I done?
40735What is it?
40735What is it?"
40735What of that?...
40735What right had any one to assume that I had not long planned to go a- fishing that very morning?
40735What right have you to avoid the burdens your fellows bear?--to be in bliss, while they are suffering?
40735What was the lion roaring of so gently there?
40735What were the formulæ?
40735What were the rules and their exceptions?
40735What will your parents say if they come, as parents should, to see the property for which they pay a tribute to the state?"
40735Where are you?"
40735Where have I heard that name?
40735Where?"
40735Which one to- night, Suzanne?"
40735Who knows what befell the edition of that memorable_ Gazette_ which contained"Jerusalem,"set solid, a mighty column of Alexandrine lines?
40735Why ablative of time?
40735Why ca n''t he wait till next?"
40735Why do n''t you?"
40735Why does a fellow learn such stuff?
40735Why not hunt old friends?
40735Why, I asked, and as reproachfully as I could make the question-- why had she never told me?
40735Why, I wondered, had she been so curious about long journeys?
40735Why, always, did the whole school turn so knowingly to you?
40735Will you never grow up?"
40735With what balm of sympathy and cheer would the new Letitia heal those wounds?
40735Would Letitia be as mild, I wondered?
40735Would no kind, sunny soul in mercy free them from their pallid misery?
40735Would she not publish it, she was asked, pleadingly?
40735You admit it, then?
40735You''re so pale, Peggy-- and your eyes-- and your hair-- Peggy, what_ have_ you done to your hair?"
40735_ How_ does a fellow know_ eruptionem_?
40735_ You_ paid for them?"
40735we asked ourselves-- this strange impassiveness, this disapproval, as it seemed to us-- negative, but no less obvious for that?
40735whose little boy is this?"
10429''See,he said,"how long have they been married?"
10429A civil wedding? 10429 Ai n''t it nice with nobody home?"
10429Ai n''t you been to that big hotel in Savannah, Georgia?
10429An inheritance-- really? 10429 And Bobby Larkin?"
10429And get turned out of this house, as you would be?
10429And what instruments do you play?
10429And what of that? 10429 Anything about Lulu?"
10429Are you going to take Jenny and Bobby too?
10429Are you serious, Nin?
10429Bedtime,his wife elucidated, and added:"Lulu, will you take her to bed?
10429Bobby,said Di,"are you going to let her lead you home?"
10429But if we do n''t tell, what''ll they think then?
10429But is it him?
10429But then how can you tell what songs to order?
10429But why not?
10429But you''re not so very used----Oh, was n''t he?
10429But, Dwight-- is it_ nice?_from his Ina.
10429But, Lulu, do n''t you think it might be better to keep, well-- out of sight for a few days?
10429Ca n''t I make her a little milk toast?
10429Ca n''t you get mother to come out?
10429Ca n''t you remember?
10429Ca n''t you understand anything?
10429Can I sell you an upright?
10429Can we?
10429Can you imagine how such a ridiculous report started?
10429Could you give me the address of Mr. Ninian Deacon?
10429Could you risk it with me?
10429Could you tell me,she said timidly,"the name of the principal hotel in Millton?"
10429Di,she said,"if you and Bobby want to get married, why not let us get you up a nice wedding at home?"
10429Did n''t I just tell you?
10429Did n''t he write to you?
10429Did n''t it occur to you,said Dwight,"that he might have told you that because he did n''t want to have to go on with it?"
10429Do n''t I?
10429Do n''t I?
10429Do n''t you like ragtime?
10429Do you know of any job that I could get me? 10429 Do you know something?"
10429Do you know why you think that? 10429 Do you need this?"
10429Do you think I want everybody to know my brother did a thing like that?
10429Do you think you could possibly stay here with me?
10429Dwight darling, are you sure there''s no danger?
10429Dwight-- I thought if you would n''t mind if I opened it--"Opened it?
10429Eh, Lulu?
10429Filling teeth?
10429For pity sakes,she said,"do n''t you know how to do anything?"
10429Gave you your choice?
10429Had it up in the city, on expense?
10429Had n''t we all better get the four- thirty to Warbleton?
10429Have good weather?
10429Have you been buying flowers?
10429Her satchel?
10429How I do what?
10429How did you know?
10429How does it?
10429How long till another train?
10429How much is salmon the can now?
10429How the dickens did you think of pianos for a line?
10429How would it hurt Di?
10429How''s that, Lulu-- what are_ you_ wearing a bridal robe for-- eh?
10429Hungry_ now?_Mrs. Bett was hungry now.
10429I do n''t think you ought to-- holy things----what''s the_ matter_, Dwightie?
10429I?
10429If everything is over between you, why should you?
10429If there was anything I could do at any time, you''d let me know, would n''t you?
10429Ina,said Lulu,"first ca n''t we hear something about your visit?
10429Is he coming?
10429Is it Miss Lulu Bett?
10429Is it about getting work?
10429Is n''t he here? 10429 Is n''t he?"
10429Is n''t it a pretty city?
10429Is n''t it understood that my mail ca n''t wait like this?
10429Is n''t she coming to her supper?
10429Is n''t that like a woman?
10429Is that all you can think of?
10429Is that what it is, papa?
10429Is that why you made fun of me all the time?
10429It would mean running away, would n''t it?
10429It''s Ina, is n''t it?
10429It''s nothing to you that we have a brother who''s a bigamist?
10429Just a little? 10429 Last night?"
10429Leave your mother? 10429 Let''s see-- you mean Dwight Deacon, I guess?"
10429Letters-- documents of any sort? 10429 Look here,"Dwight went on persuasively,"had n''t you and he had some little tiff when he told you?"
10429Look here,said Dwight Herbert,"who is it sits home and has_ ice_ cream put in her lap, like a queen?"
10429Look here,said Ninian,"are n''t you going?"
10429Lulie, was your husband married?
10429Lulie,she said,"was his other wife-- was she_ there_?"
10429Lulu sing? 10429 Lulu,"said Dwight,"on Di''s account will you promise us to let this thing rest with us three?"
10429Lulu,said Dwight,"really?
10429Lulu?
10429Mamma,Di whispered then, like escaping steam,"is n''t Uncle Ninian coming too?"
10429Married?
10429Marrying folks, then?
10429Me too?
10429Me?
10429Mother,said Lulu,"when Di went away just now, was she carrying a satchel?"
10429My dear Lulu, now why revive anything? 10429 Nice?
10429Nothing else?
10429Nothing whatever?
10429Of course,said Lulu,"of course you won''t-- you wouldn''t--""Say anything?"
10429Oh, Bobby, will you pump while I hold this?
10429Oh, how''d you get along last night?
10429Oh,she said,"what will mamma say?"
10429Or Mrs.?
10429Proofs?
10429Really, darling?
10429See that? 10429 See them to talk to?"
10429See-- where were they then?
10429See? 10429 Shall I wait for the butter- woman or get some creamery?"
10429Should you, Miss Lulu?
10429So I can come in, ca n''t I?
10429Sue him? 10429 Suitors?"
10429Sure you liked it, Miss Lulu?
10429Sure?
10429That is very nearly salmoney, is n''t it?
10429That your apology?
10429Then what are you going to do?
10429Then you care nothing for our feelings in this matter?
10429They were?
10429They''re so-- so--"You have n''t had but two, have you?
10429To have a thing like that in the family? 10429 To the city?"
10429Truly, Lulu,said Ina,"would n''t that be best?
10429Vanilly or chocolate?
10429Was he-- about the letter, you know?
10429Was n''t she married when she thought she was?
10429Was n''t you expecting anybody to meet you?
10429Was there anything to prevent your speaking of that before?
10429Well then, what are you doing here?
10429Well, but he''s here with you, is n''t he?
10429Well, but mercy,said Ina,"could n''t he find out now?"
10429Well, ca n''t I tell Bobby and Jenny she''s here?
10429Well, then, why did n''t he say so here?
10429Well, what have we on the festive board to- night?
10429Well, where have_ you_ been?
10429Well, why do n''t you say what for?
10429Well,said Ina practically,"what does he say?"
10429Well--"I mean, did Ninian give you any money?
10429Well?
10429What about_ my_ pride?
10429What are you two whispering about? 10429 What can anybody be thinking of to call just at meal- time?"
10429What did they say?
10429What did you think it was? 10429 What did you wish to see me about?"
10429What difference does it make what they think?.
10429What do I think of him? 10429 What do people say to people,"she wondered,"when it''s like this?"
10429What do you mean?
10429What do you think I came for to- night?
10429What do you think I have to tell you?
10429What else?
10429What excuse have you to offer?
10429What if I brought him up to- night?
10429What if it was Di?
10429What is it, Lulu?
10429What made him conclude, by then, that you ought to be told?
10429What may we expect?
10429What next do you say?
10429What on earth did you do it for?
10429What say?
10429What time did you get home?
10429What would the folks think of me, going on so?
10429What would you have me do?
10429What you talking?
10429What''d he say?
10429What''s that to you?
10429What''s that?
10429What''s the use of finding fault with Inie? 10429 What''s them?"
10429What''s this?
10429What''s this?
10429What''s this?
10429What''s your name?
10429What?
10429Where did you get a wheel- chair, for mercy sakes?
10429Where did you go?
10429Where is little daughter to- night?
10429Where were you two-- since you make such a mystery?
10429Where you been mostly?
10429Where''d you have it?
10429Where''s Di?
10429Where''s Lulie?
10429Where''s my beautiful straw hat? 10429 Where''s your mother, Ina?"
10429Where?
10429Where?
10429Which kind of a Mr. are you?
10429Who said he''s here?
10429Who said we wanted to be married?
10429Who, me?
10429Who?
10429Whom did you see?
10429Whose Bert?
10429Why could n''t I have said that?
10429Why did he tell you at all, then?
10429Why did you do it?
10429Why do n''t she?
10429Why do n''t she?
10429Why not all walk down? 10429 Why not say the wedding service?"
10429Why not?
10429Why not?
10429Why set people wondering till we have to?
10429Why should I have anything to do about Lulu?
10429Why, Di,she said,"do you feel that way too?"
10429Why, not till you tell me I can,said Cornish,"but wo n''t everybody know now?"
10429Why, what would they think?
10429Why?
10429Why?
10429Will you be more careful of your grammar or shall I speak to you again?
10429Wo n''t you please write it down for me?
10429Would it, Ina? 10429 Would n''t it be fun to elope and surprise the whole school?"
10429Would you have done that?
10429Would you?
10429Yes, but, Dwight, what do you think of him?
10429Yes, but, Dwight, where has she gone? 10429 Yes-- well, what did he_ say_?"
10429You certainly did not so far forget us, Lulu, as to go on the street in that dress?
10429You do n''t mean just the cooking?
10429You do n''t? 10429 You dress for me; Ina, are n''t you jealous?
10429You folks expect me?
10429You know that, do n''t you?
10429You like sacred music?
10429You opened the letter?
10429You sure?
10429You tell me this: Do they know? 10429 You think that?"
10429You want me to promise what?
10429You were with her-- where in the world had you been? 10429 You will?"
10429You will?
10429You wo n''t give it to me?
10429You''ll be all right, mother?
10429You_ bought_ it?
10429You_ picked_ the flower on the plant?
10429Your feeling?
10429Your new one?
10429_ Di?_He had Lulu''s eyes now.
10429_ No_ salmon?
10429_ What''s_ this?
10429_ Where_ are you going?
10429***** When Di and Monona had been excused, Dwight asked:"Nothing new from the bride and groom?"
10429A very little?"
10429After waitin''so long?"
10429Ai n''t this Ina?"
10429And Ina?"
10429And Nin into-- say, Nin, what are you, anyway?"
10429And before they left Lulu said:"Dwight-- you ca n''t tell how long you''ll be gone?"
10429And he had n''t seen Dwight?
10429And how should she deal?
10429And of course I said,''What?''
10429And on hearing that Lulu had an errand, added still more sisterly;"Well, but mercy, what you so dressed up for?"
10429And some one"made up a likely story to soothe her own pride-- you know how they do that?"
10429And then cried rudely:"What are you here for?"
10429And was he not a magistrate?
10429And what did Lulu care what Ina liked?
10429And where did he really hope to get?
10429And whose disgrace is it, pray?"
10429And,"Whose dog?"
10429Any sort of assurance that he was speaking the truth?"
10429Are n''t_ you_ going to sing?"
10429Are you a little girl or are you our grown- up young lady?"
10429Assistant justice or assistant dentist-- which?
10429At length she was obliged to say,"Like me to- day?"
10429Bobby now first spoke:"Who''s glum?"
10429But I did n''t think--""You did n''t think what?"
10429But Ina said tensely:"_ Is_ it nonsense?
10429But at length she did say:"Why does n''t Di come?
10429But what else could I do?"
10429But what was she to_ do_?
10429But when all this had spent itself, what was she herself to do?
10429But why not let Dwight do it in his own way?
10429But_ how_ did she do that?"
10429Ca n''t we have a secret if we want one?"
10429Ca n''t you run up and slip on another dress?"
10429Come on and hear my prayers, why do n''t you?"
10429Cornish cried warmly,"then everything_ was n''t_ all right last night?"
10429Could Dwight and Ina come to her while she was still able to visit?
10429Could anything be more pleasant?"
10429Di had no answer save her furious flush, and Mrs. Bett went on:"Did n''t I tell you?
10429Did Di Deacon take that train?"
10429Did Mr. Cornish come to see you?"
10429Did he give you any proofs?"
10429Do n''t you ever go anywheres?"
10429Do n''t you think mamma knows best?"
10429Do n''t you want to?
10429Do you have to work like this all the time?
10429Do you like me?"
10429Do you?"
10429Dwight''s eyes narrowed:"My dear Lulu,"he said,"are you_ sure_ of that?"
10429Have n''t I been trying and trying to find out where the black satchel went?
10429Have n''t you noticed that?"
10429Have you no delicacy?"
10429He had found the house all right?
10429He said he thought about telling us right there in the restaurant, but of course that''d been hard-- wouldn''t it?
10429Her and Di?
10429Her first question was:"Who''s going to do your work?"
10429Her"Could you leave me another bottle of milk this morning?"
10429His whole manner was a mute testimony to his participation in the eternal query: How did I get into it?
10429How long was it?
10429How much, Dwight?"
10429How should I tell?"
10429How was she to go on?
10429I ca n''t....""You''d rather they''d know he fooled you, when he had another wife?"
10429I mean about your going after her?"
10429I mean that I''d know how to do?
10429I s''pose because I''m most thirty- four and new things ai n''t so easy any more-- but what have I got or what''ll I ever have?
10429I take it you do n''t intend to sue Ninian?"
10429I''ve often watched you there--""You have?"
10429III JUNE On a June morning Dwight Herbert Deacon looked at the sky, and said with his manner of originating it:"How about a picnic this afternoon?"
10429If it was Dwight-- and they did n''t know whether he had another wife, or not, and you wanted to ask him-- oh, do n''t you see?
10429If_ this_ was why Di was leaving home...."But, Di,"she cried,"do you love Bobby Larkin?"
10429In October he might be heard asking:"Where''s my beautiful fall coat?"
10429Ina''s conception of hostess- ship was definite: A volley of questions-- was his train on time?
10429Ina, with her blank, upward look, exclaimed:"To-_day?_""First class day, it looks like to me."
10429Is he?"
10429Is it all right?"
10429Is n''t everybody?"
10429Is n''t it?"
10429Is there anything to this absurd tale?"
10429It was as if the sound shattered a thousand filaments-- where?
10429Know what?"
10429Lulu said:"I thought it was Di that you--""Miss Di?
10429Lulu was thinking:"What shall I say?
10429Nature''s tonic-- eh?
10429Ninian made a great show of selecting a table, changed once, called the waiter"my man"and rubbed soft hands on"What do you say?
10429No good can come by--""But why should n''t I have his address?"
10429Oh, but wo n''t he bring up some songs some evening, for them to try over?
10429Oh, could he?
10429Oh, would Ina like that?
10429Or were her own eyes new?
10429Or,"W- well, it_ is n''t_ Lulu Bett any more, is it?
10429Say, why do n''t you send it to his brother?
10429Say, why in time do n''t you come in the other room?"
10429See?"
10429Shall it be lobster?"
10429She caught his speculative look-- he had heard a tale or two concerning her return, as who in Warbleton had not heard?
10429She cut a fresh cake, filled a plate, called to Di, saying:"Take some out to that Bobby Larkin, why do n''t you?"
10429She had been there but once, years ago-- how could she ever find anybody?
10429She heard Dwight''s concerned"Is that so?"
10429She put it to her sister fairly: Now, no matter what Dwight''s way was, would n''t that be better?
10429So at last Dwight said tentatively at lunch:"What if I brought that Neil Cornish up for supper, one of these nights?"
10429So that after all it was a relief to Lulu to hear Dwight ask casually:"By the way, Lulu, have n''t I got some mail somewhere about?"
10429Take off your hat, why do n''t you?"
10429Teasing her about him, were they?
10429The dog- kennel part-- wasn''t that the queerest thing?
10429The evening had been to her a light from heaven-- how could she find anything to say?
10429The less you say about it the better, for all our sakes--_you_ see that, do n''t you?"
10429Their progeny will not eat?
10429Then he found himself looking off the page, stabbed by a reflection which always stabbed him anew: Was he really getting anywhere with his law?
10429There, by Jove, now have we entertained you, or have n''t we?"
10429These details Dwight interrupted: Could n''t Lulu remember that he liked sage on the chops?
10429To Lulu he said kindly,"Do n''t you play, Miss--?"
10429To every one with whom they spoke in the aisle after church, Ina announced their news: Had they heard?
10429Was he not taking her to the city?
10429Was it possible that Di was suffering in the air of that home as she herself suffered?
10429We_ did n''t_ elope, did we?"
10429Well, but whom has she got to blame for it?"
10429Well, ca n''t you see how it''d hurt her?"
10429Well, what are you doing here?
10429Well, where you hiding that handsome husband of yours?
10429Well, why ca n''t they know the truth?"
10429Well, you are a funny....""You wanted me to lie?"
10429What am I going to do?"
10429What can be supplied?
10429What did it mean?
10429What do you s''pose?
10429What do you say, Ina-- considering Di and all?"
10429What has she done?"
10429What have you got that for?"
10429What is this?
10429What was one to think?
10429What was she going to do?
10429What was this, was their progeny hurt?
10429What you going to say to that?"
10429When Dwight inquired playfully,"Do n''t we look like company?"
10429When only strange names and strange writing presented themselves there, he said:"Tried the parlour?"
10429When they had gone on,"What do you mean by my having to put up with you?"
10429When was he coming and what was he coming for?
10429Where could she go?
10429Where had she gone, with whom had she talked, what had she told?
10429Where had you and Aunt Lulu been with mamma''s new bag?"
10429Where is he?"
10429Where were you both?"
10429Where were you?"
10429Where''d you been if she had n''t married?"
10429Which way did she go?"
10429Who was it that had lived in a boat throughout youth if not he?
10429Who would have thought it of her?
10429Why did n''t you tell them you''re not?"
10429Why do n''t I send her over a baked apple?
10429Why indeed?"
10429Why not be sensible and leave this alone?
10429Why, do n''t the disgrace--""What disgrace?"
10429Would Bobby consider taking charge of the grass?
10429Would it hurt Di?"
10429Would n''t that be better?"
10429Would she be adult if she were let alone?
10429Yes, it made a man feel a certain confidence...."_ Do n''t_ it?"
10429You ai n''t been and got married twice, have you?
10429You came to see me?"
10429You have it, have n''t you, Dwight?"
10429You hear him?
10429You know the kind of girl?"
10429You said I must n''t tell the truth till I had the proofs...""Tell who?"
10429You see that, do n''t you?"
10429You think the disgrace of bigamy in this family is something the whole town will have to know about?"
10429You wo n''t?
10429You would n''t mind if I did open it?"
10429You''d like that, would n''t you-- going South?"
10429You''ll be sure,"she added,"not to say anything about what was in the letter?"
10429You_ will_ have to tell now, wo n''t you?
10429_ Lulu_?"
10429_ To- night_?
32920Ah, what have I done? 32920 And Robert?
32920And am I the first? 32920 And for two whole years you propose to shut yourself up in a hospital?"
32920And never flirted, nor run after a pretty girl?
32920And pray, what did you talk about?
32920And so she is going to run away, a make- believe little journey of two or three hours? 32920 And why not?
32920And-- afterwards?
32920And-- when you_ do n''t_ marry? 32920 Are n''t you going to congratulate me, Jean?"
32920Are you by any chance a soldier?
32920But are you blissfully, ecstatically, unspeakably happy-- almost too happy to live?
32920But you do n''t believe, you ca n''t seriously believe that that is possible?
32920Ca n''t you, Miggles? 32920 Could n''t you contrive to reduce work while you are laid up, dear?
32920Dearest boy, I''m sorry-- dreadfully, dreadfully sorry for all those poor people; but you and I have not much to lose, have we? 32920 Did you,` tell things''to Aunt Mary?"
32920Do you mind? 32920 Doubt is forbidden, I suppose, with other repinings?
32920Fine or superfine?
32920Gloucester? 32920 Had n''t you better take some cooking lessons, or something?"
32920Have you come at last? 32920 Have you fallen in love with me for my looks?"
32920Have you really just arrived, or is that merely a figure of speech? 32920 Have you thought, dear; have you any idea what you will do?"
32920He admires her desperately, does n''t he? 32920 He had told you-- you knew?
32920How are you now, dear? 32920 How can I live, looking on, always looking on, having no part?
32920How can you be engaged? 32920 How could we not?
32920How did she help you, dear? 32920 How do you do, Miss Strangeways?
32920How do you do? 32920 How shall I bear it?"
32920I was not an elf then-- one of the number who was honoured by your attentions?
32920Is he_ sure_, dear? 32920 Is it a girl or a boy?"
32920Is it because you are--_tired_ of me, Piers?
32920Is it serious?
32920Is it?
32920Is n''t it lovely? 32920 Is n''t that partly physical, do n''t you think?
32920Is that all you have to say? 32920 May I ask what Piers has to say?"
32920May I give you some advice?
32920Miggles, how can you be so callous? 32920 Miggles, how would you like it if I came down to live with you at Seacliff?
32920Mrs Rendall? 32920 My Heart, why worry about Jean?
32920Not? 32920 Piers, my dear,"said Mrs Rendall primly,"will you ask a blessing?"
32920Robert, are you ill? 32920 Service in what capacity?
32920Shall I_ never_ feel?
32920Shall we?
32920Snake- charming, you mean, the boy in the basket, the mango trick? 32920 So you have pleasant anticipations concerning our glen?
32920The Happy Land?
32920Then why is she leaving town so suddenly?
32920Then, what do you say-- shall we go to the balcony? 32920 Tired?
32920Vanna helped you?
32920Vanna, you remember what I said to you about Miggles? 32920 Was I blind and deaf?
32920Was that_ you_ laughing just now? 32920 What did they want this time, Miggles?
32920What do you mean?
32920What do you take me for, Jean? 32920 What do you think it means to me?
32920What does it matter to me if every soul belonging to you were mad? 32920 What does it mean?"
32920What is it that makes the difference, the yawning, illimitable difference between just one person and all the rest of the world? 32920 What is it, dearie?
32920What is the matter with that girl?
32920What is the matter? 32920 What should I do without you, child?"
32920What time was that? 32920 What would you think if I asked the same promise of you?
32920What would_ you_ do if you were in our place? 32920 What, darling?
32920What_ is_ it?
32920When were you warned? 32920 When will lunch be ready, mother?
32920Where is he?
32920Where shall you go?
32920Who the dickens?
32920Why not? 32920 Why should I, dear child?
32920Why should you not? 32920 Why this fervour?
32920Will I write? 32920 Will you give it to me?
32920You are sure you want us? 32920 You did n''t like him, then?"
32920You refuse to be prudent in regard to the most important happening of your life?
32920You wo n''t take my advice?
32920You would find it easier to leave me?
32920_ How_ much do you love me?
32920_ To- day_?
32920_ What_ did you call me?
32920_ Why did we ever meet_?
32920------------------------------------------------------------------------ How does one live through the first days of an intolerable grief?
32920------------------------------------------------------------------------"The happiest moment of my wedding day?"
32920A day or two more or less-- what does it matter?
32920A female Piers?"
32920A good haul?"
32920A ring?
32920After all, would she have been more content if Piers had_ not_ rebelled?
32920Am I not more to thee than ten sons?"
32920Am I not right, sir?''
32920And Piers Rendall?
32920And if they did, is it all joy to be a father?
32920And if they''re matted,_ can_ they bloom?
32920And it''s always the same description:` do you mind if I bring a man home to dinner to- night?
32920And now?
32920And one day, Piers,_ you_ came along-- do you remember?
32920And when she queried blankly,"Her headache?"
32920And you really like it-- this buried- alive existence?
32920And you remember those dining- room curtains that I sent to be dyed?
32920And you went on playing?
32920And you''ll stay until it is over, wo n''t you, and keep house, and look after Robert, when I''m upstairs?
32920Are n''t you anxious; are n''t you curious?
32920Are n''t you pleased?
32920Are n''t you well?"
32920Are n''t you, dear?"
32920Are the stories true, for instance, that one hears of these native jugglers?"
32920Are you glad to be back in England; and how does it look to you after your long absence?
32920Are you going to stay at home?"
32920Are you quite sure that you can make her happy?
32920Are you sorry to leave India and settle at home?
32920Are you sure that the joy equals the pain?
32920Are you thinking of some one you know, some particular person who is included in this happy category?"
32920Are you tired, dear?
32920Better so than to run the risk of satiety, and the hastening of that day when the dread question might arise:"What next?"
32920But are you quite sure you wo n''t be bored?
32920But how to do it?"
32920But however-- what was I talking about?
32920But when it is only to bring a worse pain upon you, how can I help regretting?
32920But why?
32920But you-- if_ you_ hadn''t!--Robert, what should I have done?
32920Ca n''t we be content just to be together-- like this?
32920Ca n''t we be content to wait-- to suffer if it must be, in the hope of all that is to come?
32920Ca n''t we follow their example?
32920Ca n''t we lift our love above the ordinary human conception?
32920Ca n''t we manage it, somehow, Rob?
32920Ca n''t we stick to the truth?"
32920Ca n''t you give me credit for as much consistency as yourself?
32920Ca n''t you hear her requiem?
32920Ca n''t you hear?"
32920Ca n''t you trust me still?"
32920Can anything be more pitiful than the position of a woman who loves, and finds herself passed over in favour of a chosen friend?
32920Can ten and sixpence buy peace, while a continent perishes?
32920Can you believe it, Vanna;_ can_ you?
32920Can you deny it?"
32920Can you ever forget?
32920Can you ever forgive me?"
32920Can you imagine my suffering?"
32920Can you tell me about them?
32920Can you understand in the faintest degree that it is just because you have shown me what love can mean that I can not live my life alone?
32920Could I see you, and talk to you, and listen to your praises from far and near, and keep my head?
32920Could n''t we three go off together, and do something_ nice_?
32920Could she not bear to stand aside, and say"God speed"?
32920Could she not realise, and be consoled?
32920Could you fancy a nice cup of tea?"
32920Could you have discussed Robert with me while you were waiting?
32920Darling, can you be brave?"
32920Dear, good, kind little soul, why trouble yourself to find trouble?
32920Dearest, is any human being really content?
32920Did you ever try it with marmalade?
32920Do all engaged lovers marry and live happily ever after?
32920Do n''t you go about daily waiting to see what will happen?"
32920Do you believe that I shall really grow old?"
32920Do you despise me?
32920Do you despise soldiers so heartily?"
32920Do you find it a difficulty?
32920Do you imagine I shall give her up?"
32920Do you know in the least what you are like?
32920Do you know_ why_ I cried?
32920Do you need to ask?
32920Do you remember Jean when she was engaged?
32920Do you remember saying that it was little use to possess a Happy Land so far away that you could rarely see it?
32920Do you think I want to refuse?
32920Do you think it would not be bliss to me to give way too?
32920Do you think me a faithless hound?
32920Do you, can you, by any possible chance, belong to_ me_?"
32920Does a woman wait all those months to be cheated at the end?
32920Does he continue to smile through all the upsets, and forgettings, and domestic crises, such as you described to us at Seacliff?
32920Does it interest you at all?
32920Does n''t he look well?
32920Does one grow tired of the sun?"
32920Does she imagine that she can hide herself so easily?
32920Does she reign by merit or by chance?"
32920Does the girl expect to be immortal?
32920Engaged_ not_ to be married?
32920For how long?"
32920Grieving after Jean, and feeling lonely to be left without your friend?
32920Had anything been said to arouse her wrath?
32920Had she convinced him against his will?
32920Had she not already received her instructions-- that she was to feign an accident as an excuse for obliterating herself for the others''benefit?
32920Have my strings marked my neck?
32920Have we been here nearly an hour?
32920Have you any definite idea of what is to happen-- or when?"
32920Have you never loved any one before?"
32920Have you never noticed how one child in a family seems to have inherited all the weaknesses and failings, while the others get off scot free?
32920Have you seen a doctor?
32920Have you seen her lately?
32920Have you visited our glen in another incarnation, Miss Strangeways, that you remember its details so distinctly?"
32920He admired her, of course-- what man would not admire Jean?
32920He bit his lip, frowned, and demanded suddenly,"How long do you mean to stay?"
32920He is a fine man; I like him-- but for Edith?
32920He says,` What is the matter, dear?''
32920He--""Yes?"
32920Honestly-- we are both her devoted slaves-- but honestly, is it by any virtue of her own?
32920How are you feeling?"
32920How can I grumble after that?
32920How can it?
32920How can you be so cold, so cruel?
32920How can you insult me with such words?
32920How can you meet?
32920How can you talk about dying in that matter- of- fact way, as if it were a removal from one house to another?
32920How could she go on tending Miggles, sitting quietly in the house, separated from Piers, seeing him with another?
32920How could she realise the hunger of one who had stood continually outside the feast?
32920How could we be engaged when we can never marry?"
32920How could you explain?
32920How could_ she_ bear it for his sake?
32920How dare I shut them out?"
32920How did he look when he first saw you alone?"
32920How did the fishing go this morning?
32920How did you guess?
32920How did you know?
32920How do I look?
32920How do you feel?"
32920How do you manage to decide these knotty points?"
32920How has he come?"
32920How is he?
32920How is she looking?
32920How long are you going to stay this time?"
32920How long had she loved him?
32920How long must I wait?"
32920How long would Jean allow so unsatisfactory a state of affairs?
32920How many parents and children-- grown- up children-- do you find who live together in sympathy and understanding?
32920How many times have you visited your domain since we were here together in summer?"
32920How much of Miggles''s happiness did she owe to this blessed capacity for sympathy in the interests of others?
32920How shall I bear it?
32920How shall one dare to put a limit to what is possible even in material things?
32920How soon, and in what fashion would the dramatic meeting take place?
32920How would he bear it if there were no escape?
32920I am very grateful, but, but ca n''t you say you are_ glad_?
32920I have loved you, I have given you my life-- how can I be free?
32920I have too much sense of fitness to sport` Louis quinze''in country roads; but why do English bootmakers set their faces so sternly against insteps?
32920I''m sorry for parents; but why do they grow so old?
32920If Edith wished to appropriate this man for herself, why had she so hastened to bring him into the temptation of Jean Goring''s presence?
32920If I ask,` is he a gentleman, Robert?''
32920If Jean were like me, and you loved her, but could not marry?"
32920If he had fallen short of the ideal, was not she herself open to the same reproach?
32920If we can never marry, why did we ever meet?"
32920If you are contented to talk--""You mean it?
32920If you could have heard them talking when they were alone, you would have found that it was almost always about the future-- When shall we be married?
32920If you love me, how can you regret having given me the great joy of my life?"
32920India?"
32920Is he_ meant_ to be content?
32920Is it agreed?"
32920Is it possible that I could grow tired of_ you_?"
32920Is it really possible?"
32920Is n''t it wonderful?
32920Is n''t the present rich enough to content us?
32920Is that what is troubling you now?"
32920Is there much credit in being calm and resigned over a thing you do n''t_ feel_?
32920Is there no chance?"
32920Is_ that_ what you want?"
32920It is settled then?
32920It would be fun, would n''t it, dear?
32920It''s impossible that your life should be cold or bald--""Is it, Jean, is it?
32920It''s the spirit that matters, is n''t it, dear-- the spirit, not the letter?
32920It_ was_ you?"
32920Lately?
32920May I keep it?"
32920May I speak to you for a moment?"
32920Men are so fussy about capital... Vanna, do you realise that it is a whole year since I''ve seen you?
32920More, a thousand times more, than when we were married; but, Vanna, can you believe it?
32920Not Robert Gloucester?
32920Not if you try very hard?
32920Now are you content?"
32920Now what was this?
32920Of course every woman does not suffer as I have done; but then how many have a husband like Robert?
32920Of what avail to rail against fate, when the effort could only revert on one''s own head in weariness and remorse?
32920Of what use were sweet words if understanding were lacking?
32920Ought she not to be grateful too?
32920Our old landlord over at Sutton-- did you know the Dixons?
32920Perhaps-- who knows?
32920Piers and you?
32920Piers, how_ can_ you love me with that knowledge in your mind?
32920Piers, what have I done?
32920Piers?
32920Really absolutely settled?"
32920Really?
32920Really?
32920She knows?
32920She struggled with the oppression in her throat and breathed a breathless,"Where?"
32920She was silent, smiling mischievously to herself for several minutes, then burst out suddenly:"Can you imagine it, Vanna?
32920Should we think of each other any the less because we were at opposite ends of the world?
32920Since I was here last?
32920So you do n''t remember being here before, Vanna?
32920Such a beautiful thought, was it not?"
32920Surely Jean would not blame her, because when happiness had been placed into her hand she had not had strength to thrust it away?
32920Surely out of the riches of her own wealth she would rejoice that some crumbs had fallen to her friend?
32920Tell me, have you seen anything, had any extraordinary experiences?
32920Thank me for_ what_?
32920That you are attracted by her face, and her face alone?
32920That''s the very_ latest_ from Paris, I suppose, miss?"
32920The difference it makes-- the astounding difference--"_ What_ difference was it which her presence made?
32920The doctor came at twelve, and said Joyce was perfectly well, but I looked feverish; could n''t I lie down and rest?
32920The effect of that nap on the mossy ground?
32920The future was desolated; and the past?
32920The gravy was quite white... Why did the pudding fall to pieces?''
32920The half- hour, was n''t it-- half- past one?
32920The lesson of her death?
32920The poor fellow smiled and said:` ca n''t you hurry it on a bit?''
32920The question is,_ Am I justified_?
32920There will be moments when I shall be gnawed with envy, but perhaps, who knows?
32920There will be others..."But what woman fresh from her fiery trial can take comfort in that thought?
32920This climax of bliss-- what could it be but a presage of the end?
32920Those other lovers that you speak of, do they trouble their heads about marriage the first moment they are alone with their love?
32920To take her to that lonely place, away from all her friends: can it be right?
32920Vanna looked up at him, a wealth of devotion in the depths of her eloquent eyes, but her lips trembled over the words:"What can I say?
32920Vanna, is it so hard?"
32920Vanna, knowing the uncertainty of life, dare you,_ dare_ you refuse me my joy?
32920Vanna, what do you say to running off to the country to- morrow-- you and I?
32920Vanna-- do you think I am a beast?"
32920Was he about to take her at her word?
32920Was it not he who had first preached the beauty of a spiritual love?
32920Was it true?
32920Was it_ this_ you felt-- a foretaste of this joy-- when you walked into your kingdom and read its message?
32920Was not the glen dedicated to happy thoughts?
32920Was she by chance annoyed at this interruption to the visit?
32920Was she too beginning to realise the bearing of this week upon her own life?
32920Was that fair?
32920Was that just?
32920Was this the"little cry"which was to act as the prelude to the"nice cup of tea"?
32920We talked about our last meeting, and he said:"` You remember what that fellow said to me?
32920Well, what would_ you_ expect from that description?
32920Well-- flourishing-- giving satisfaction-- as nice as ever?"
32920Were n''t_ they_ gloriously happy?"
32920Were you bored?
32920What are you thinking about?"
32920What brought you away from the gay capital before the end of the season?"
32920What can you expect if they never get any attention?
32920What can you have been?
32920What can you say to comfort me?"
32920What can you say to me, Vanna?
32920What comfort had Vanna to offer?
32920What could be done?
32920What could he mean?
32920What could it be?
32920What could it be?
32920What could she do?
32920What could the future hold for her?
32920What could you say?
32920What did she say?"
32920What do you propose to_ do_?"
32920What do you say?"
32920What does it matter what country one does it in?
32920What for?
32920What form does it take-- this presentiment of yours?
32920What had he to say?
32920What has gone?
32920What has happened to her?"
32920What have I left if you cast me off?
32920What have we done to be cursed and set aside?
32920What have_ you_ left?
32920What is Jean to think?
32920What is it?
32920What is it?"
32920What is it?"
32920What is she like-- this mamma?
32920What is so funny about bulbs?"
32920What is the use of keeping up pretences-- you and I?
32920What is troubling you to- day?"
32920What must you think of me?
32920What right have you on our holy ground?"
32920What sort of heels are you wearing this afternoon, Jean?"
32920What then?
32920What was I saying, dear?
32920What was it to her if Piers Rendall loved and wedded another woman?
32920What was it?
32920What was she like?"
32920What words of comfort would she offer in her turn?
32920What would Jean have to say to her great news?
32920What would Robert say?
32920What would people think?"
32920What would she say?
32920What would she think?
32920What''s the good of sitting there like a mummy?
32920When did you see her?
32920When in the history of woman did she appreciate a service thus offered by a member of the opposite sex?
32920When shall we be alone?"
32920When?
32920Whence came this sudden tide of happiness; this swift rush of blood through the veins?
32920Whence had come the change?
32920Where could she live?
32920Where does that mean?
32920Where in the name of mystery did you evolve it?
32920Where is my baby?"
32920Where is that old oak, I wonder?
32920Where is your settled home?"
32920Where now was the peace and conquest on which she had congratulated herself during the last few months?
32920Where shall we go for our honeymoon?
32920Where shall we live?
32920Where will you live?
32920Where?
32920Who gave you that?"
32920Who was your partner, by the way?
32920Why ca n''t I take a leaf out of his book and be content and happy?
32920Why can every one be happy except us?
32920Why did he not use it?
32920Why do n''t you speak?
32920Why do we love each other like this?
32920Why dwell upon the picture of a soul in torment?
32920Why had Piers elected to stay on?
32920Why has not one thought of that before?
32920Why is he sure?
32920Why is it not in the room?"
32920Why not, if you wish it?
32920Why not?
32920Why not?
32920Why on earth could they not have introduced him to me, instead of to you?"
32920Why should I be sacrificed, a live woman, with all my powers strong within me, for the sake of problematic infants who may never arrive?
32920Why should I be?"
32920Why should I squander more weeks to satisfy a convention?
32920Why should she be beautiful, and strong, and happy, and adored, while I am lonely, and sad, and tainted by disease?
32920Why should such differences exist?
32920Why were you so bleak and crusty to Piers yesterday?
32920Why?
32920Why?"
32920Will you care to write to me still?
32920Will you come to see us sometimes, and let us do what we can to help your life?"
32920Will you graciously explain?"
32920Will you write to me when you are away?"
32920Women admired and loved her, and constantly asked of each other,"Why is she not married?"
32920Would I be able to keep her for an hour while she promenaded with Lorna?
32920Would I like to look at it?
32920Would Vanna be justified in marrying?
32920Would all the gratitude in the world cheer you if Robert went away?"
32920Would he pine?
32920Would it not, my dear?"
32920Would she understand?
32920Would you like to have me with you, dear?
32920Would you like to have me?"
32920Would you rather tell me now, or wait till later on?
32920Yet what shame can there be in the acknowledgment of a natural magnetic force?
32920You are engaged?
32920You are not_ sorry_ that she is happy?
32920You are so much better this afternoon-- what do you say?
32920You ca n''t get away-- Vanna, does it strike you that we are doing a wrong, a wicked thing?
32920You did not trouble about him; why should I give up everything for the sake of possible children?"
32920You do n''t grudge her her good fortune?
32920You feel that, do n''t you-- the absolute goodness and sincerity of the fellow?"
32920You have known all these months when you have been happy and gay?
32920You have never been here before?"
32920You have not been dancing at all?"
32920You have not been lonely?"
32920You have not changed your hair?"
32920You know my craze for furniture?
32920You mad creature, what do you mean?"
32920You will never understand, but ca n''t you believe me?
32920You wo n''t find it too lonely?"
32920You would n''t have me love you less?"
32920You_ mean_ it?
32920_ Was_ he in love with Jean?
32920_ What_ is in her face?"
32920_ Why have I not come home to you_?
32920_ Would_ she have me, I wonder?"
32920` Was n''t it wet?''
32920and how many coffers of gold did you squander in the purchase?"
32920and if so, how did it affect herself?
32920asked Vanna suddenly,"are you happy?"
32920he looks at me with his biggest eyes, and asks,` would I ask any one to meet_ you_, who was not?''
32920is n''t it sad?
32920what have you to say?
32920whispered Jean weakly,"where is my baby?"
23124Always providing that her husband was the chief consideration, and came before everything else?
23124And all this time you have heard nothing? 23124 And now?
23124And should Mr Edwards--(the innocent inquiry of my voice was growing more and more marked)--"was it his duty to have told you?"
23124And the settlement? 23124 And what about themselves?"
23124And what is your verdict, Mr Manners? 23124 And why would n''t I be liking him, Miss Evelyn?
23124And will Miss Wastneys keep on the house alone?
23124And will you allow me to wish you much happiness and prosperity in your beautiful home?
23124And you objected that I would wish to come first? 23124 And you?
23124Are you sorry to be here?
23124Billy''s father, I believe?
23124Bridget, do you really mean-- do you honestly mean that you like him, too?
23124But during those two weeks_ after_ you were married, he still seemed to--_care_? 23124 But he knows?
23124But why London?
23124But you couldn''t-- You were never tempted?
23124But-- but-- how_ could_ he be there? 23124 But-- what about the other people?
23124Charmion, are n''t you the least little bit inclined to be hard?
23124Could n''t you try that, Charmion? 23124 Delphine, would you like to have a run in the car for a couple of hours or so before dinner?"
23124Delphine?
23124Did she? 23124 Do you approve?"
23124Do you imagine that the landlord will be able to make children sleep beyond their usual hour?
23124Do you know the feeling? 23124 Do you think I deserve it?"
23124Do you think I should?
23124Does she intend to join Mrs Fane in America?
23124Does the same argument apply to local domestics?
23124Er-- what do you think of-- the other one?
23124Evelyn Wastneys, will you take this man to be your wedded husband?
23124Evelyn-- Miss Wastneys is your niece, I believe?
23124Even at twenty- six?
23124General, shall_ we_ go hunting-- you and I? 23124 Harding?"
23124Have n''t you a man friend who would take you away?
23124Have you enjoyed your drive?
23124Have you had enough reading for to- day, or would you care to hear one of the articles in this review?
23124He says to me,` Is Miss Harding at home?'' 23124 He-- he spoke of Mr Hallett''s wife--""And you were not aware that he had a wife?
23124He? 23124 His wife?
23124How are we going to manage it?
23124How could I? 23124 How much?"
23124How much?
23124How was the General when you saw him last?
23124How? 23124 I believe you and-- er-- Mrs Fane are strangers to this neighbourhood?"
23124I hope the tenants at` Pastimes''are well, and the Vicar and his wife-- that pretty little` Delphine''of whom Evelyn is so fond?
23124I keep asking myself,` In my place, what would Evelyn have done?'' 23124 I suppose,"he began tentatively,"you have had an easy life?"
23124Incomplete? 23124 Is he going to be ill?
23124Is there any necessity for them to shriek at the pitch of their voices?
23124Lend you Bess? 23124 May I ask if she has confided in you-- told you the history of our acquaintance?"
23124May I ask who gave you that information?
23124May I have a few minutes''conversation? 23124 Minus a maid and appliances?"
23124Miss Wastneys, would you care to see the picture we were talking about at dinner?
23124Mr Thorold, I believe?
23124My dear, has it ever occurred to you to think what you are going to_ do_?
23124My dear, what kind of joy_ can_ there be in such places?
23124Now that you''ve stayed here, and seen for yourself what it''s like, truthfully, are n''t you just a little sorry for me? 23124 Of course I can make no definite offer without consulting Mrs Fane, but-- would you like it if we lent our grounds for the fete?
23124Oh, Mr Maplestone, what is the use of arguing? 23124 Oh, has n''t he?
23124Oh, how did you guess?
23124Perhaps Miss Wastneys-- Is there any special place you would like to see?
23124Pray what makes you think so?
23124Pretty condemning, eh? 23124 Quite heroic, is n''t it?"
23124Really? 23124 Rich?
23124She needs change, does n''t she? 23124 She?"
23124Sure, d''ye reminder Miss Kathleen when she play- acted the ould lady, the last Christmas party?
23124Then, of course, under the circumstances, you will not be inclined to come with me to town?
23124This-- this reunion will make a difference to your life? 23124 Tired, dear, and-- cross?
23124Travers? 23124 Tried to find her?
23124Was Ralph civil? 23124 Was it necessary to wait until we had actually arrived, before letting us know that you had changed your mind?"
23124Was that your husband''s name?
23124We ought to strike a happy mean between us, eh, Evelyn? 23124 Well, and why not?
23124Well, dear little girl, if your present crack- brained mission is not working out to your satisfaction, if your neighbours in the` Mansions''(?) 23124 Well, young lady, and how are you to- day?
23124Well-- suppose we talk of the drawing- room walls? 23124 Well?"
23124What about General Underwood for` Pastimes''?
23124What about hers? 23124 What about that hat?
23124What are your faults?
23124What did he say, how did he look, when you told him about your money and the settlement? 23124 What did you talk about?
23124What do you mean? 23124 What exactly_ is_ forgiveness?
23124What have I to remember? 23124 What men?"
23124What sort of a gentleman is he? 23124 What was he like?"
23124What was it? 23124 What was-- is-- your favourite man''s name?"
23124What would be the good of minding? 23124 What''s forty- foive, but the proime of life?
23124What?
23124What?
23124Where shall I go? 23124 Where_ are_ the stairs?"
23124Which is?
23124Who spoke of blame? 23124 Who?
23124Who?
23124Why are you laughing, Miss Harding?
23124Why do you laugh?
23124Why do you smile?
23124Why not make it a general holiday? 23124 Why not-- both?
23124Why not? 23124 Why not?"
23124Why not?
23124Why should n''t_ I_ take the children out this afternoon, and let you go home and rest? 23124 Wo n''t your husband object?
23124Would it be likely, Kathie, in our very first talk?
23124You can really love me? 23124 You did not ask for estimates in advance?"
23124You do n''t deny, I suppose, that you joined with matron in abusing me as a monster of wickedness?
23124You do n''t recognise me in the latter_ role_?
23124You had n''t taken another place then? 23124 You have known all the time?
23124You have no-- er-- special link or attraction?
23124You like your own way, do n''t you? 23124 You mean-- about your husband?"
23124You refuse to show any consideration for an invalid returning home-- after many years?
23124You refuse to tell me where to find her?
23124You told him, of course, that you were in treaty with another tenant?
23124You understand that my cousin is an invalid, and that he has a special reason for wishing to live in this neighbourhood?
23124You would like that?
23124You? 23124 Your mother?"
23124_ Do_ I look the sort of person to wheel out prams, and give tea parties to widowers, and be looked upon as a prop and support by my neighbours?
23124_ What''s that_? 23124 _ What_ best things, for example?"
23124( So the Squire would"want,"would he?
23124--he glared at me reproachfully--"you are probably not aware that I have asked Miss Wastneys to be my wife?"
23124--she winced in irrepressible misery--"is it_ possible_--is it_ possible_ that any man could act so well?
23124... Did I tell him you were coming?"
23124A pretty hat apiece, and a frock, and stockings to match-- that would n''t break the bank, would it?
23124About us?
23124All that time?
23124Am I dreaming, or is this real life?
23124And besides,"added Bridget shrewdly,"wo n''t he be all the keener for doing without me a bit?"
23124And did n''t she look charming, too?
23124And he said lucidly:--"Well, there would have been more to catch, would n''t there?
23124And if there is no one else, why should I try?
23124And in my case, for instance, to whom would you suggest I should proceed to cling?"
23124And the prevailing colour?"
23124And what can he mean?
23124And what had Travers to say?
23124And what would she find?
23124And when we were settled, what should I find to say?
23124And you argued with him, you say?
23124And_ then_, Evelyn,_ then_ what are you going to do?
23124Approaching him on the unsheltered road, torn by the problem,"Will he bow?
23124Are you brave enough, strong enough, unselfish enough to give up all that has hitherto made your life, and to be satisfied with living through others?
23124Are you in love-- engaged?"
23124Are you shocked?"
23124Are you speaking figuratively, Mr Maplestone?
23124Ask her if she feels to me as she does towards other men?
23124Associations!--so precious, are n''t they, to a woman''s heart?
23124Aunt Eliza had some suggestion to make, then?
23124But at night?
23124But still--"Are you sorry, Charmion?
23124But what of the children who shriek, and have holes in their stockings?
23124But what?"
23124But-- what did you think about the life in this little place?"
23124But-- why should Mr Maplestone-- I gaped at him, and said:--"_ Why_?"
23124Ca n''t you evolve a_ real_ Miss Harding, who will look after me and my poor bairns?"
23124Ca n''t you imagine whom it is about?
23124Ca n''t you leave business, and just be` homey''with me for an hour or two, after all this time?"
23124Ca n''t you see how such an attitude must affect her character and development?"
23124Ca n''t_ you_--isn''t there something else?"
23124Can you do the same?
23124Can you find it now?"
23124Can you wonder that I am hard and cold-- that I have so little sympathy for outside troubles?
23124Can you_ hear_?"
23124Charmion, ca n''t you guess?
23124Could I banish the housekeeper, and introduce a variation by paying to take her place?"
23124Could I have helped doing so, when I was asked?
23124Could I sit still where I was?
23124Could I work in a visit to friends?
23124Could n''t you make it your home instead of the flat?
23124Could n''t you"--he looked at me apologetically--"carry on the same work in the country in your own name?
23124Could you ever respect yourself again if, having put your shoulder to the wheel, you drew back and lapsed into selfish indifference?"
23124Delphine, we shall meet at the Parish Room at twelve?"
23124Did he say anything about me?"
23124Did it begin--_soon_--Charmion?"
23124Did the Vicar know?
23124Did you keep it?
23124Do I look as if I had strength enough to push a pram?"
23124Do I look as if I would kidnap babies?
23124Do I think his perambulator gets damp in the basement store- room?
23124Do n''t you believe it is true?"
23124Do n''t you two--?"
23124Do we show it in our faces?"
23124Do women-- can women-- is it possible to-- to_ care_ at forty- five?"
23124Do you admire it?
23124Do you always forget so quickly?"
23124Do you consider yourself justified in acting in direct opposition to her wishes?"
23124Do you imagine, if I choose to look for you, you can hide yourself from ME?"
23124Do you realise that_ nothing_ is settled, and that nothing need be, unless you are absolutely, whole- heartedly_ sure_?"
23124Do you remember the old fairy story about the unfortunate king who had three iron bands clamped tightly round his heart?
23124Do you remember when you said you would give me my own way-- in reason?"
23124Do you suppose I could leave England without seeing you again?
23124Do you think any clergyman''s wife ever felt the same before?"
23124Do you think she will talk?"
23124Do you understand?
23124Does he draw that still?"
23124Does it make it better or worse, I wonder, that I am rich, and the question of money does not enter in?
23124Does n''t it strike you as wrong and dishonourable to show such a want of concern for other people''s convenience?"
23124Does n''t it worry you, Charmion, to feel yourself unjustly accused?"
23124Does n''t that seem queer?"
23124Does she think me an ugly brute?"
23124Does that mean anything wrong with the spine?
23124Does your head ache, dear?
23124Edward?
23124Evelyn, are n''t you the least little bit in the world inclined to wear your heart on your sleeve?"
23124Evelyn, did you notice that she never spoke of her husband?
23124Evelyn, do you imagine for one moment that I am going to let you go?"
23124Evelyn, do you think she suspected?
23124Evelyn, is n''t it strange how he dislikes you?"
23124For whom?"
23124From the very beginning?"
23124Good news from Switzerland, was n''t it?
23124HOSTILITIES?
23124Had I been to blame in the past?
23124Had I had bad news?
23124Had he heard from Delphine of my coming and rushed to town for the express purpose of returning in my company?
23124Had he noticed?
23124Had he seen?
23124Had the silly little thing ordered, and never_ asked_?
23124Hallett''s wife?
23124Have I ever seemed to pry into your affairs?"
23124Have you anything to suggest?"
23124Have you-- have you been making inquiries to find out what I am worth?"
23124He bowed too, and said:--"Miss Harding, I believe?"
23124He knows I am here?"
23124He opened his lips and spoke:--"Evelyn, will you be my wife?"
23124He recognised the name?"
23124He said,"Would I kindly specify one or two of the` heaps''?"
23124He says to me,` Is Miss Evelyn Wastneys at home?''
23124He was not at all rich-- did I tell you that?
23124How can I stay here, and let you go?
23124How can I turn round all in a moment and look upon you as a-- a lover?
23124How can I?
23124How can you care?
23124How can you possibly know that you would like me as a wife?"
23124How could I ever return to"Pastimes"?
23124How could you be so mad?"
23124How dare you attend to your own comfort at the expense of your neighbours overhead?
23124How did you do it?
23124How do I know?
23124How do I look?"
23124How do you come to know her?"
23124How do you find the small man, Miss Harding?"
23124How do you suppose_ he_ treated his wife?"
23124How does he seem now?"
23124How long has Mr Merrivale really been ill?"
23124How long is this tomfoolery to go on_?"
23124How much do you charge?"
23124How much will you take?"
23124How will it help him if its hair curls?
23124How will it work out, dear, after paying expenses?"
23124How would it be to drop some of the most boring duties and concentrate upon the things that you could do with all your heart?
23124How would you like to take that house with me for the next two or three years, and furnish it between us with our best` bits''?
23124How?"
23124I cried suddenly,"are n''t you_ thankful_ to be rich?"
23124I do n''t know if you are particular as to address?"
23124I drew back; but, before I had time to protest, he hurled another crisp, sharp question at my head:--"Do you love your niece?"
23124I felt for her hand and held it tight?
23124I imagined them talking together about me, and saying,"Have you seen the new lady in the basement?
23124I looked from one sulky face to another, and asked confidently:--"Now, which of you is the better cook?"
23124I said as much, and he said,"Certainly; but how?
23124I said faintly:--"Has he tried?"
23124I said, with an air of polite inquiry:--"And-- did you part good friends?"
23124I said,` What name shall I say, please?''
23124I see quite well how hard and bitter I am, but--""You ca n''t forgive?"
23124I shall see you again before you sail?"
23124I should be interested to know in what way you hold me responsible for Delphine''s shortcomings?"
23124I smiled, a slow, superior smile, and spoke in a forbearing voice:--"Do you think you-- er--_really_ understand very much about women?"
23124I think he was contemptible beyond words; but--_isn''t_ it possible that he has regretted, that he has not taken the money because he was_ ashamed_?"
23124I thought of the Vicar''s pensive"Darling, is n''t this very high?"
23124I turned to the Squire and asked solemnly,"_ Do_ I?"
23124I wanted to ask--_Whats the matter_?"
23124I was just wondering-- have you any engagement for the mornings?"
23124I wondered what Charmion was doing, I wondered how Delphine was faring, I wondered-- did he really care so much?
23124I_ ached_ to ask,"When?"
23124If I made a remark, he disagreed; if I was silent,"Was there_ no_ news?--_nothing_ going on to tell a poor wretch tied to his bed?"
23124If I really loved Evelyn, and cared for her welfare, how could I stand aside?
23124If forgiving seems beyond you for the moment, could n''t you take the first step?"
23124If it were to be done at all, why could it not have been done before?"
23124If my faults are so many and so obvious, why on earth does he--?
23124If so, would she be so very kind as to take Billie''s temperature, as he seemed restless and feverish?
23124If the ladies are across with the Squire, how''ll he take it if he hears my daughter''s in their service?
23124If there had been any possibility of doubt I would have gone straight to her, and demanded the truth, but-- what was the use?
23124If there seems no difference between us?
23124If this particular man was so much more understanding, why had she summoned me from town?
23124In the meantime, what about dinner?"
23124In the meantime, you''ll get a habit?"
23124In what possible way is Evelyn to blame?"
23124In what way has she` launched out''?"
23124Is Mrs Fane called Charmion?
23124Is it another man?"
23124Is it coincidence, Miss Harding?"
23124Is it his?"
23124Is it necessary to tell one''s whole life history to-- er-- an--""An acquaintance?
23124Is it possible?
23124Is n''t he the fine figure of a man, and as pleasant a way with him as if he''d been Irish himself?"
23124Is n''t it a duck?"
23124Is n''t it glorious?"
23124Is n''t that a little unreasonable?"
23124Is n''t that enough?
23124Is n''t there_ any_ room in the house you could have for your own, and furnish just exactly as you like?"
23124Is n''t this rather a dull corner for you?
23124Is that abuse?"
23124Is there any way in which I can help?
23124Is there anything in the world more depressing than a third- rate English suburb?
23124Is there_ anyone_, Evelyn, who may swoop down upon us at a moment''s notice, and carry you off to share_ his_ house?"
23124Is this a life for a girl of my age?"
23124Is your mother quite well?"
23124It all seemed so real-- so real--""Charmion, after you had read that letter and understood all that it meant, what did you do?"
23124It goes against the principles of any right- minded female to give away tawdry fineries, and yet-- and yet--_Could_ I bear to destroy them?
23124It is Jacky''s work-- his vocation; but for me, a girl of twenty- two, do you think it is quite_ fair_?"
23124It is not enough?
23124It was a wonderful letter, written straight from the heart--"I interrupted in breathless haste:--"Have you got it?
23124It was just--""What?"
23124It would be a relief to be rid of her, but-- who would take charge while she was away?
23124It''s so hard for you, is n''t it, dear, having no other brother or sister?
23124Later on-- after a blissful interlude-- I began to ask questions:--"What will your mother say?
23124Make the house a country resort for lame dogs who need a rest, for example?
23124May n''t they be hurt instead?"
23124Meantime you understand, do n''t you, Bridget, that they are not_ cheerful_ places that we are going to see?
23124Might n''t they like me better just because I_ am_ young and look nice?"
23124Mr Hallett, disappointed of a hoped- for holiday with his friend as companion, shrugged his shoulders, and inquired dismally:"What can you expect?
23124Mr Manners, may I say exactly what I think?"
23124Mr Thorold, will you answer just one question?
23124Mrs Merrivale paused and cocked an interrogative eye at me, and her husband said gently:--"Dear, are n''t you too ambitious?
23124Must I tell Charmion?
23124My brain seethed with curious questions, but there seemed only a moment''s pause before I spoke again:--"Have you been staying in town?"
23124Need we go on?"
23124Nice little flat, is n''t it?"
23124Nothing has happened?"
23124Now I suppose you are horribly shocked?"
23124Now what did she mean by that?
23124Now, are you coming, or are you not?"
23124Obviously the insinuation was meant to go home, but how and where had we been to blame?
23124Odd, is n''t it, that the season should affect` Weltham Mansions''?
23124Oh, but_ why_ did he pretend?
23124Ought she to lie down flat?
23124Pause to wonder if it might not be better to make a man happy rather than to live alone, even if one were not really in love?
23124Poor strugglers, clinging on to the fringe of society, squeezing out the extra pounds so badly needed for necessities, for-- what?
23124Probably it has-- well, it has made you bad- tempered, has n''t it?
23124Ralph"--she went to his side and stared eagerly in his face--"did you mean what you said the other day, about teaching me to ride?"
23124Several men wanted to marry me, but I never met anyone whom it was possible to think of as a husband until--""Your husband?"
23124Shall I pretend?"
23124Shall we leave it for another day?
23124Shall_ I_ bow?
23124She smiled at me in wan acknowledgment, and I said,"May I help?"
23124She thought it so queer to have your own Christian name printed on your cards--""Did she?"
23124Short of being absolutely brutal, what else could I say?
23124Should he tell her-- should he confess?
23124So all this time you have believed that I was a happy widow?"
23124Some girls would--""What?"
23124Still not enough?
23124Suppose I had cared, too?
23124Suppose he did n''t?
23124Suppose he did?
23124Suppose we hear your bird for a change?"
23124Tell me the truth?"
23124Thankful?
23124That committee?
23124That may all be quite true, but what on earth has it got to do with what we were talking of last?"
23124That''s the feeling, is n''t it?
23124That''s what you heard, I suppose?"
23124The disguise was good, but was it good enough?
23124The great, all- absorbing question is--_where_ and_ how_ to begin?
23124The money you made over to him?
23124Then Mr Maplestone turned to the valet, and roared at him:--"Why the dickens could n''t you_ come_, instead of hanging about all day?"
23124Then he turned to Mr Maplestone, and roared at him:--"What on earth did you_ mean_ by letting go?"
23124Then what was the urgent need?"
23124Then with an eagerness which could not be suppressed,"You know her?
23124There has some letters come--''He says,` When will Miss Harding be in?''
23124There''s no doubt but we''ve done good, but what I say is-- why not do it with your own face?"
23124They are so fond of you already; but--""Well?"
23124This is the letter:--"Evelyn, Dear,--How is it faring with you, I wonder, in your grey London world, while I laze beneath Italian skies?
23124This was all very well, but what next?
23124This week, to- morrow-- what are conventions to us?
23124To see those little white gloves shrivel up in the flames, the high heeled little slippers crumple and split?
23124Truly?
23124WHY NOT?
23124Was I ill?
23124Was I quite well?
23124Was it a deep and laborious plan?
23124Was it a disappointment like?
23124Was it chance?
23124Was it coincidence?
23124Was it fancy which read a note of reproach in her intonation?
23124Was it my fault for having given the address?
23124Was it possible that with his small stipend he could afford such extravagances?
23124Was n''t it your express desire to be sociable, and to know your neighbours?"
23124Was there anything he could do?
23124We grew intimate, comforting one another, waiting day after day--""You mentioned me?
23124Well, shall we go upstairs and see the bedrooms?"
23124What I want to know now is, why, with your temperament, did you come to marry a country parson?"
23124What about me?
23124What are you going to do, my dear, with your blank new life?"
23124What could I say?
23124What could I say?
23124What could be a finer testimony to Miss Harding''s verisimilitude than the blandishments of these sweet innocents?
23124What could he do to cut down expenses?
23124What did you expect?
23124What did_ I_ think?
23124What do you suppose?
23124What do you think of that?
23124What does he look like?"
23124What does it matter whether their hair curls or not?
23124What does she look like?
23124What does your husband say?"
23124What else could you expect?"
23124What had I done?
23124What is this` work''of which you talk?
23124What kind of a man can he have been to make a woman leave him in a month?"
23124What next?
23124What right had he to waste good canvas?
23124What sort of things were_ you_ thinking about?"
23124What was I to do in the future?
23124What was her Christian name?"
23124What was it_ possible_ to say?
23124What was the use of making a fuss?
23124What was there to say?
23124What was to happen when the half- hour was up, and Delphine went off to her library books and left us alone?
23124What were Miss Wastneys''plans for the summer?
23124What would you like?
23124What''s the matter?
23124What''s the trouble, Evelyn?"
23124What''s this nonsense of leaving no address?
23124What?
23124When are you coming again?"
23124When are you coming back to` Pastimes''?"
23124When shall you call?"
23124Where could the men sleep?"
23124Where did you buy your bonnet, Evelyn?
23124Where is she?
23124Where_ are_ your things, Charmion?"
23124Which way shall we go?"
23124Who abuses her?"
23124Who could compare a darkened life on earth with the perfected powers, the unimaginable glories of eternity?
23124Who else could I mean?"
23124Who has been talking about my affairs?
23124Who says I am rich?
23124Who?
23124Why and wherefore?
23124Why are you so sure the Squire does not?"
23124Why did I never marry?
23124Why did n''t I think of it before?
23124Why had he asked me?
23124Why not?
23124Why should I be cross?
23124Why should I distress myself about a man I have never seen?"
23124Why should I keep a name which was given to me under false pretences?
23124Why should I not wish to be reassured on my own account?
23124Why should I think of her any more?"
23124Why should a man stint his wife to give the money away to outsiders?
23124Why should it be wrong for me to force confidences, when she herself had led the way?
23124Why should it?
23124Why should n''t I settle a few of the bills for Billie''s illness and say nothing about it?"
23124Why should n''t I take a little flat in some unfashionable block, and play good fairy to my neighbours?
23124Why should we be so very hard on other people because theirs are a different brand from our own?"
23124Why waste it here?
23124Why would n''t I help him?
23124Why?
23124Why?
23124Why?
23124Why?
23124Will he pretend?
23124Will she be surprised?"
23124Will they be starving around us, Miss Evelyn, and the little children crying out for bread?"
23124Will you be on my side?"
23124Will you explain?"
23124Will you forgive me if I am perfectly frank and honest, and tell you exactly what is in my mind?"
23124Will you kindly listen to that?"
23124Will you really take the girls?
23124Will you really?"
23124With your looks--""What have my looks to do with it?"
23124Wo n''t the time come when nature will rebel, and demand a turn for yourself?
23124Worth more, I presume, than the entrance shilling?"
23124Would I be so very good as to stay to hear his verdict?
23124Would I go to Ireland?
23124Would I recommend sending the children to live in the country?
23124Would he ask me to change seats?
23124Would he expect me to suggest it?
23124Would he go on caring?
23124Would n''t I help him?
23124Would n''t he have been happier with one?"
23124Would n''t that first hour in the garden be glorious enough to repay you for all the exile?"
23124Would n''t to- morrow morning--?"
23124Would n''t you like to be moved?"
23124Would the time ever come, when I was really old, when I should sit by a lonely hearth and look back and regret?
23124Would you be an angel of meekness if you had to go through what I am bearing now?"
23124Would you be sorry?
23124Would you care to see our garden?
23124Would you do it yourself, Mr Maplestone-- for the sake of a stranger you had never seen?"
23124Would you do it?
23124Would you mind telling me exactly what it was?"
23124You agree?
23124You and I will have sunshine and light at Pastimes-- you wo n''t mind putting up with dullness for part of the year?"
23124You are Miss Harding?
23124You are n''t by any possibility going to marry Wenham Thorold?"
23124You are not--""What?"
23124You are sure you have told me everything, Delphine?
23124You believed in him still?"
23124You can really manage to care?"
23124You can surely pull yourself together for five minutes?"
23124You could n''t tell what it was like?"
23124You did n''t accept?"
23124You feel the same?
23124You have been cruelly treated, but-- do n''t be vexed-- aren''t you in the wrong, too, in feeling so bitter after all these years?"
23124You have met, and-- spoken?"
23124You have never been in love?"
23124You know what this means?"
23124You shared it together?
23124You think I dare?"
23124You understand, do n''t you, that it is only a loan?
23124You will allow me to sit down?"
23124You will speak honestly, and-- let me speak honestly to you?"
23124You would enjoy that?"
23124You yourself?
23124You-- you will go to your flat, Evelyn?"
23124You?
23124You_ did_ say so?"
23124You_ do_ want him, do n''t you, Miss Harding?"
23124Your husband?"
23124_ And_--the poor feet?"
23124_ Blood_?"
23124_ Care_--are you asking?
23124_ How could I manage to look old_?
23124_ Why_ did n''t he tell her that he knew about the money?"
23124_ Why_ did you do it?
23124_ Why_ will you speak of such things when I have begged you not?"
23124_ Why_?
23124_ You_ who are always talking of wanting to help--""But could I help him?
23124` Pastimes''is its name; is n''t it quaint and suggestive?
23124and"How?"
23124and"Where?"
23124but when I left, he asked,"When will you come again?"
23124what is it?
23124what should we ever find to say?
23124you have been getting into debt?"
33353''E ai n''t much good, is''e?
33353''E was n''t expecting me; but''e asked me the other night if I''d call in when I was passing, and as I was passing I called in, see?
33353''Ow''s that, me dear?
33353A cormorant?
33353A what?
33353Am I as tedious as that?
33353Am I your friend, Miss Brent?
33353Am I?
33353And Lady Meyfield, does she know?
33353And now what do you think of me?
33353And shall we all be asked to the wedding, Lord Bowen?
33353And what did you do?
33353And what did you do?
33353And what did you say?
33353And what do you think of Peggy''s whirlwind methods?
33353And where were you wounded?
33353And who is to receive these explanations?
33353And why was I not told, her sole surviving relative?
33353And why, may I ask?
33353And will you dine to- night, Pat?
33353And-- and--she concluded,"what do you think of me?"
33353Are n''t we a nuisance?
33353Are you a major?
33353Are you cold?
33353Are you going to be mean? 33353 Are you mad?"
33353Are you mad?
33353Are you playing the game, do you think?
33353Are you serious?
33353Are you sure, me dear?
33353Are you sure?
33353Are you-- are you sure it''s nothing else?
33353As your sole surviving relative it is my duty----"Do n''t you think,interrupted Patricia,"that just for once you could neglect your duty?
33353Busy with what?
33353But are n''t you going to open them?
33353But are n''t you pleased?
33353But ca n''t we----?
33353But do n''t you believe in love?
33353But do they?
33353But for how long, Tan?
33353But how much will that help us?
33353But how?
33353But if someone''s dress is awry, or their hair is not on straight, would you announce the fact to the whole table?
33353But is n''t it true, Miss Brent?
33353But is n''t it true?
33353But then, how do you----?
33353But what on earth have I to do with your singing in your bath?
33353But what will she think?
33353But what''as money got to do with it?
33353But why did n''t he----?
33353But why do you think I am lonely?
33353But why has she changed her mind?
33353But why,questioned Patricia,"were you going away if you knew that-- that everything would come all right?"
33353But why----?
33353But why?
33353But-- but-- that would leave_ The Morning Post_ announcement and P- Peter----"Do n''t you think they might both be left, just for the moment? 33353 Call him?"
33353Can not we agree to share Miss Brent?
33353Can not we go to your room?
33353Can you imagine Tan in love, Patricia?
33353Can you not see Godfrey choosing a wife?
33353Can you, Mrs. Morton, seriously regard marriage in this country as a success? 33353 Can you,"continued Lady Tanagra, who was in a wilful mood,"can you imagine Godfrey in love?
33353Caught what?
33353Colonel Bowen?
33353Could n''t you say I''ve been promoted?
33353D''you like it?
33353Did I look as bad as that?
33353Did I? 33353 Did he-- did he-- er-- tell you?"
33353Did n''t I?
33353Did n''t Jacob serve seven years for Rachel?
33353Did n''t he tell you he had seen me?
33353Did n''t you do that?
33353Did you get my message?
33353Did you know Colonel Bowen was coming?
33353Did you ring me up to ask after my health?
33353Did you say you were going there?
33353Did you tell her so?
33353Dining at the Quadrant?
33353Do I look as bad as all that?
33353Do n''t you see how horribly awkward it is? 33353 Do n''t you think he is a little like the Scotsman we were talking about just now?"
33353Do n''t you think that half the troubles of the world are due to people wanting to understand?
33353Do n''t you think we had better just talk the thing out? 33353 Do n''t you understand that nothing can possibly be built up on such a foundation as-- as----?"
33353Do you appreciate that you are talking in parables?
33353Do you appreciate that you''ve made me extremely ridiculous with your telegrams, messenger- boys, conservatories, and confectioner''s- shops? 33353 Do you know what I told''er?"
33353Do you know why I''ve come?
33353Do you like him?
33353Do you like them?
33353Do you really mean it?
33353Do you refer to Uncle or to me?
33353Do you regret it?
33353Do you think I would marry----?
33353Do you think I''m a cormorant, as well as an abandoned person?
33353Does Lady Tanagra know?
33353Does it make you feel particularly virtuous to be charitable with another''s money?
33353Does one reason with a woman, Peel?
33353Does she keep canaries then?
33353Does that imply that he is a drug upon the market?
33353Does that mean that he is a food or a stimulant?
33353Does the girl know that you are-- that I am to throw myself into the breach?
33353Ever hear that song''My Old Dutch''?
33353Finished?
33353Found whom?
33353Galvin House?
33353Going out?
33353Had the man suddenly gone mad?
33353Has it ever struck you what we shall look like when we grow very old?
33353Have I any engagements to- day?
33353Have I been here long?
33353Have n''t you seen_ The Morning Post_?
33353Have you ever been to Eastbourne, Peel?
33353Have you nothing to say?
33353How are you?
33353How can anyone be serious in this heat?
33353How can you prevent it?
33353How did they find out?
33353How did you get round here; did you bring the car?
33353How did you know?
33353How long have I known her?
33353How''s Patricia?
33353How?
33353How?
33353I beg pardon, my lord?
33353I do not think I am qualified to express an opinion, am I?
33353I repeat,proceeded Miss Brent,"where did you meet Colonel Bowen?"
33353I suppose you are a friend of the family?
33353I think,she said, indicating an old woman selling matches,"we''ll give her the shilling for the taxi, Peter, shall we?"
33353I wonder what you are thinking of me?
33353I wonder why I let him do that?
33353I''m very much at your mercy now, Peter, are n''t I? 33353 I-- I----""Jump in, wo n''t you?"
33353I----"Do n''t you think you''ve done enough mischief already, Aunt Adelaide?
33353Interested in politics?
33353Is Lord Peter Bowen in?
33353Is Lord Peter Bowen in?
33353Is he a first or a second lieutenant?
33353Is he steady?
33353Is his knapsack number 99?
33353Is it indiscreet to ask where you are taking me?
33353Is it true that you are engaged to Lord Peter Bowen?
33353Is it worth it?
33353Is it?
33353Is n''t he a darling?
33353Is n''t he a dear?
33353Is n''t that Godfrey all over?
33353Is n''t that just like a man?
33353Is that Lord Peter Bowen?
33353Is that an apology, or merely a statement of fact?
33353Is that you, Patricia?
33353Is what worth what?
33353Is your fiancé in the army?
33353It does n''t sound very respectable, does it?
33353It is my duty as your sole surviving relative,how Patricia deplored that word"surviving,"why had her Aunt Adelaide survived?
33353It is n''t what?
33353It was rather funny, was n''t it?
33353It''s difficult, is n''t it, Patricia?
33353Like it?
33353Look here, Daddy, if you steal my friends I shall----she paused, then turning to Elton she said,"What shall I do, Goddy?"
33353Love, me dear?
33353Made a what, me dear?
33353Married, me, Mr. Triggs? 33353 May I ask what it is?"
33353May I call?
33353May I come in, dear?
33353May I pay for the taxi?
33353May we smoke?
33353Mean by what?
33353Might I enquire who Aunt Adelaide is, please, Patricia?
33353Must you?
33353No room for her own son?
33353Not remember the number of the battalion in which your fiancé is?
33353Not say it?
33353Now you''ve spoiled it,cried Lady Tanagra,"and it was----""Spoiled what?"
33353Now, father,said Mrs. Bonsor,"will you come into the morning- room?
33353Off to- morrow?
33353Oh, Mr. Triggs, how could you?
33353Oh, but I ca n''t,said Patricia;"I-- I----""Why ca n''t you?"
33353On your side?
33353Only----"Only what?
33353Patricia, when did you-- care?
33353Patricia, where did you meet this Colonel Peter Bowen?
33353Patricia,continued Miss Brent,"I repeat, what is this I hear about your being engaged?"
33353Patricia,she demanded,"what is all this I hear?"
33353Please forgive me, I was rather a beast, was n''t I?
33353Please try and understand,she said,"and now will you drive me home?"
33353Quarrelled,''aven''t they?''
33353Rang who up, father?
33353Shall I come round?
33353Shall I want anything warmer than this?
33353Shall we put it in their tea?
33353Shall we say Friday?
33353Shall you be tired?
33353She is a little overpowering at first, is n''t she?
33353Sir?
33353Sir?
33353Sir?
33353Spoiled everything?
33353Tell him I''m busy, will you please?
33353Tell you what?
33353That one over there, see''i m eating a nut?
33353That the Quadrant Hotel?
33353That you asked who what?
33353That you, Patricia?
33353That''s delightful; but who is me?
33353The what?
33353Then I may forgive him, you think?
33353Then is n''t it true?
33353Then the letter to Peter would hurt him because-- you must forgive me-- it is rather brutal, is n''t it?
33353Then what on earth do you call him then?
33353Then you decline to tell me?
33353Thinking?
33353To the Zoo?
33353Understand what?
33353Was he?
33353Was n''t it strange we should see you to- night?
33353Was she annoyed?
33353Was she really too undressed?
33353Was the message undesirable?
33353We all have our weaknesses, do n''t you think?
33353Well, if he''s never been tiresome I''m sure you would n''t like to hurt him, would you?
33353Well, may I be the physician for to- day?
33353Well, me dear, how goes it?
33353Well, now, will you do something just to please me?
33353Well, where shall I see you?
33353Well, you see, Mr. Triggs, he''s rising, and you ca n''t rise and be risen at the same time, can you?
33353Well,continued Lady Tanagra,"what do you say if we destroy them both?"
33353Well,said Patricia gaily,"what are the old tabbies doing this afternoon?"
33353Were they getting full value for their money?
33353Were they not all lonely-- the left of God?
33353Were they----?
33353What am I to tell Aunt Adelaide at half- past five to- morrow evening?
33353What battalion?
33353What did you say?
33353What do you mean by it?
33353What do you mean? 33353 What do you mean?"
33353What do you mean?
33353What do you think of her, Goddy?
33353What do you think of it,''Ettie?
33353What do you want me to say?
33353What else should it be?
33353What else?
33353What have I got to fret about?
33353What have I to fret about?
33353What have you got to fret about?
33353What is it?
33353What on earth do you mean?
33353What will people think?
33353What will''Ettie say?
33353What work?
33353What would they think if they heard the man you''re engaged to call you Miss Brent?
33353What''ave I done?
33353What''ave I done?
33353What''s he in?
33353What''s that you say?
33353What''s that?
33353What''s the matter, me dear?
33353What''s the time, Peel?
33353What''s true?
33353What?
33353Whatever shall we do?
33353When does he go?
33353When is it to be, Lord Peter?
33353When shall we get married?
33353When?
33353When?
33353Where are you? 33353 Where did I meet him, Aunt Adelaide?"
33353Where to, sir?
33353Where will you have the flowers, Miss Brent?

33353Who, Patricia?
33353Who, Peter?
33353Who?
33353Who?
33353Why ai n''t you talking, me dear?
33353Why ca n''t they let potatoes grow without writing about them?
33353Why did she not reproach him, why did she thrill at his touch, why----?
33353Why did you come?
33353Why did you suddenly leave me all alone, Peter?
33353Why do you say that?
33353Why does n''t he live here?
33353Why had not Bowen written?
33353Why had she given the boy sixpence?
33353Why hesitate at the first step?
33353Why is it that we Englishmen dislike each other so at breakfast?
33353Why not ask her to lunch here to- morrow?
33353Why not tell her the truth?
33353Why not?
33353Why not?
33353Why on earth must the ridiculous people put it at the top of the column?
33353Why was she allowing him to do this?
33353Why, do n''t you see that you have implied that all the luck is on her side, and that will make her simply furious?
33353Why?
33353Why?
33353Why?
33353Why?
33353Will you dine with me?
33353Will you give him my message, please, Fellers?
33353Will you say that I''m engaged?
33353Will you take pity on me, Patricia? 33353 Will you?"
33353Wo n''t you and your friend share my table, Patricia?
33353Wo n''t you have some tea?
33353Working who too hard?
33353Would you mind telling me what you propose doing?
33353Yes, Aunt Adelaide?
33353Yes, I see him,said Patricia;"but who was just like him?"
33353Yes, are n''t I getting acid and spinsterish?
33353Yes, are n''t they? 33353 Yes, sir; but wot about my petrol?"
33353Yes, who is speaking?
33353You broke off the engagement with a nice young chap like''i m?
33353You do n''t approve of them?
33353You do n''t like it?
33353You going to marry''er?
33353You got the flowers?
33353You have been wounded?
33353You have n''t fainted, have you?
33353You heard, Gustave?
33353You insist?
33353You know Betty''s such a sport?
33353You know Lady Tanagra?
33353You know Lord Peter?
33353You know all about Colonel Bowen, do n''t you, dear? 33353 You think we should take happiness where we can find it?"
33353You told_ The Morning Post_ people that it was correct when you knew that it was wrong?
33353You will forgive me, wo n''t you?
33353You wo n''t be hard on us, will you?
33353You''ll explain to Mr. Bonsor that I''ve been kidnapped, will you not?
33353You''ll take champagne?
33353You''re Patricia Brent, are n''t you?
33353You''re not angry with me, Patricia, are you?
33353You''re not going to say you ca n''t both dine with me?
33353You''re not very gracious, Patricia, are you?
33353You?
33353Your fiancé?
33353Your petrol? 33353 --it had become with her a habit to address her reflection in the mirror--shall we carry an umbrella, or shall we not?"
33353After a moment''s silence he continued:"Been sowing wild oats there?"
33353After all, she would ask herself indifferently, what did it matter?
33353After his cheery"How goes it, me dear?"
33353Again he paused, then added with a gulp,"Could n''t I lend you some?"
33353Are you going to play the game?"
33353As for telling Patricia, could he immediately on meeting her blurt out,"I''m a lord?"
33353B., what''ave you got to say?"
33353Bonsor?"
33353But where are you going, and why all this splendour?"
33353By the way, where shall you be if I want to get at you?"
33353CHAPTER XI THE DEFECTION OF MR. TRIGGS"Well, me dear, how goes it?"
33353CHAPTER XV MR. TRIGGS TAKES TEA IN KENSINGTON GARDENS I"Well, me dear,''ow goes it?"
33353Ca n''t you share her with me, just for this evening?"
33353Can I see you?"
33353Come in a taxi or shall I come and fetch you?"
33353Could n''t we go somewhere else?"
33353Could she explain?
33353Could they lunch at the Carlton?
33353Did God make people in His own image and then leave the rest to them?
33353Did they ever get mixed?
33353Do n''t you like knowing Lord Peter and Lady Tanagra, Mr. Elton and all the rest of them?"
33353Do n''t you think so, Miss Wangle?"
33353Do you understand?"
33353Had Mr. Triggs told her?
33353Had he thought she would be dazzled?
33353Had she bathed?
33353Had she met any nice people?
33353Have n''t you got a whistle?"
33353Have you ever felt like that?"
33353He had promised to see her through; but how was he going to do it?
33353Her thoughts ran in a circle, coming back inevitably to the maddening question,"What does he really think of me?"
33353How did she know?
33353How had he classified her?
33353How is it you are dissipating in town?"
33353How many times had Bowen been down?
33353How would you like to live among them all?
33353I must be going to----""Have you got a luncheon engagement?"
33353I wonder what the major- man will think?"
33353I?"
33353If he were Lord Peter, why on earth had he not told her?
33353If it rained, did they think it would clear up?
33353If it were cloudy, did they think it would rain?
33353If it were fine, did they think it would last?
33353If she let Peter go?
33353If she made it the Friday night, would it arouse suspicion?
33353If there is anything I can do, you will tell me, wo n''t you?
33353Is he really Lord Peter?"
33353Is it worth it?"
33353Is n''t it absurd?"
33353Is n''t that so?"
33353Is that not so?"
33353Is that right?"
33353Is there a quiet corner where we shall not be overheard?"
33353It had been Patricia''s intention to go by bus but at the entrance of the lounge she saw Gustave who ingratiatingly enquired,"Taxi, mees?"
33353It was to escape such drab existences that girls went on the stage, or worse; and why not?
33353Lady Tanagra was getting them out of the tangle into which they had got themselves; but was she not involving them in a worse?
33353Miss Brent, are n''t you happy?"
33353Miss Brent,"she said, addressing Patricia,"would you not like to take your aunt into my boudoir?
33353Mr. Cordal, a heavy man who seldom spoke, but enjoyed his food with noisy gusto, actually exclaimed,"What?"
33353Now ca n''t we talk about something pleasant?"
33353Now if she''s in love with him she will want to hear about him, and----""But ai n''t she going to see''i m?"
33353Now shall we talk about something else?"
33353Now what are the old cats-- I beg your pardon, what have the-- lambs been saying?"
33353Of what use would her pride be then?
33353One day he had asked Patricia rather suddenly,"Why do n''t you get married, me dear?"
33353Our epidermises are too thick, or should it be epidermi?"
33353Patricia tore open the envelope and read:"DEAR PATRICIA,"Wo n''t you let me see you?
33353Patricia wondered was she lucky?
33353Perhaps he had already started for----"Who is that?"
33353Perhaps they would take tea with Mrs. Bonsor at the Ritz one afternoon?
33353See?
33353Shall I bring the car?"
33353Shall I run you down to Whitehall?"
33353Shall I tell you what I was thinking?"
33353Shall we drop the subject of Colonel Bowen for the time being?"
33353Shall we get on with the letters?"
33353She had not gone many steps when the big car slid silently up beside her, and she heard a voice say,"Ca n''t I give you a lift to Galvin House?"
33353She must see him, but how?
33353Should she go into the lounge, where she was sure Galvin House would be gathered in full force, or should she go straight to bed?
33353Should she or should she not enlarge the surface of exposure?
33353Somewhere at the back of her mind was the unuttered thought, What would Little Milstead think of such conversation?
33353Suppose Patricia were to marry her father?
33353That''s only fair, is n''t it?"
33353Then a moment after, drawing his cigarette- case from his pocket, he enquired,"Shall we smoke?"
33353Then back again her thoughts would rush to the inevitable question, what did he really think?
33353Then suddenly turning to Miss Wangle, she said,"Do you think I shall do, Miss Wangle, or do I look too wicked for a major?"
33353Then with a sudden change of mood she cried,"Was n''t it clever of me capturing you to- day?
33353Then with a sudden change she added,"But you will come, wo n''t you?
33353There were the"Haven''t- we- met- before?"
33353This gentleman,"he looked at the card,"Mr. Triggs, is----""Oh, Mr. Triggs, how do you do?"
33353Triggs?"
33353Triggs?"
33353Triggs?"
33353Triggs?"
33353Triggs?"
33353Turning to Patricia she demanded,"Can you imagine Godfrey in love?"
33353Turning to Patricia she said:"Do you think it would matter if you put off what you are doing until to- morrow, Miss Brent?"
33353Uncle, how are you?"
33353Was Betty pretty?
33353Was Mr. Triggs expected?
33353Was ever man so persistent?
33353Was it really, as Aunt Adelaide had told her, because the heart missed a beat?
33353Was it true that the costumes of the women were disgraceful?
33353Was she always to be a drudge to the Bonsors, a victim of the Wangles and a target for the Boltons of life?
33353Was she going to faint?
33353Was she going to faint?
33353Was she really the sort of girl who might be taken for an inveterate old maid?
33353Was that where free will came in?"
33353Was the chair really moving away from her?
33353Was there no escape?
33353Was this all that life held for her?
33353We never give special invitations to the friends we want, do we, Peggy?
33353Well, Uncle, how''s the wound?"
33353Were the dresses pretty?
33353Were they----?
33353What St. George would rescue her from this dragon of----?
33353What am I writing?"
33353What could it mean?
33353What could she say?
33353What did he think of her for being there?
33353What did it hold for her?
33353What do you say, Patricia?"
33353What had happened?
33353What had happened?
33353What had she been dreaming of to make her cry?
33353What had she done?
33353What if he thought her different from what she actually was?
33353What must he be thinking?
33353What must he think of her?
33353What on earth could she tell her aunt?
33353What then?"
33353What time does she leave Eaton Square?"
33353What was Bowen going to do to save the situation?
33353What was happening to her?
33353What was he thinking of Galvin House refinement?
33353What was pride?
33353What was she going to do or say?
33353What was she to do?
33353What was she to do?
33353What were her plans?
33353What would Mr. Triggs say?
33353What would Peel do?
33353What would happen that afternoon?
33353What would you do?
33353What would you do?"
33353What would your poor dear father have said?"
33353When they had been served and both were smoking, Bowen remarked casually,"Got any engagement for this afternoon, Tan?"
33353When was she likely to get married?
33353Where did she propose to get her trousseau?
33353Where had she been?
33353Where had she heard it?
33353Where was the wedding to take place?
33353Where?"
33353Wherever did you learn so much?"
33353Who was to provide the wedding- cake?
33353Why above all things could n''t women be reasonable?
33353Why could n''t Patricia be sensible?
33353Why did guns sound exactly as if large plank were being dropped?
33353Why did not she accept the opening of escape that now presented itself and marry Bowen?
33353Why did people faint?
33353Why did silly women expect every girl to marry?
33353Why did the report seem as if something were bouncing?
33353Why did you do it?"
33353Why did you?"
33353Why had Fate been so unkind as to undermine a possible friendship with that damning introduction?
33353Why had an undiscriminating Providence given her an Aunt Adelaide at all?
33353Why had he not written after what had occurred?
33353Why had it not bestowed this inestimable treasure upon someone more deserving?
33353Why had she not met these people in a conventional way so that she might preserve their friendship?
33353Why had she not written to him instead of endeavouring to express verbally what she knew she would fail to convey?
33353Why must she take up this absurd attitude, contorting every action of his into a covert insult?
33353Why on earth do we know so many people, Goddy?
33353Why should people lose all sense of dignity and proportion at a set period of the year?
33353Why should she be made ridiculous in this fashion?
33353Why was he behaving like a schoolboy?
33353Why was it assumed because a woman did not marry that no one wanted to marry her?
33353Why was she hurrying home?
33353Why was she there?
33353Why?
33353Why?"
33353Will half- past eight do?"
33353Will you dine with me to- night and when may I take you to Grosvenor Square?
33353Will you tell us about-- about----?"
33353Wo n''t you let me pick you up?
33353Would he be content with his dismissal?
33353Would her knees play her false and cheat her?
33353Would it never end?
33353Would n''t we, Goddy?"
33353Would not Miss Brent bring Lady Tanagra to tea or to luncheon one day?
33353Would she go abroad for her honeymoon?
33353Would the King and Queen be present at the wedding?
33353Would you tell them?"
33353Yes, he''s quite a decent- looking old thing, and he''s given Galvin House something to talk about, has n''t he?"
33353You will forgive me, dearest, wo n''t you?"
33353You wo n''t let me ever regret it, will you?"
33353You wo n''t think me inquisitive, will you?"
33353have you seen your beautiful presents?"
33353how can you suggest such a thing?"
33353said Elton with a smile,"shall we continue our talk over lunch, if you have no engagement?"
33353said Patricia, light dawning upon her and turning to Tanagra with a smile,"Then you''re the solution?"
33353she added,"that''s almost legal in its ambiguity, is n''t it?"
33353simpered Miss Sikkum,"are n''t you going to say good night to him?"
33353what are you thinking of me?
33353what do you mean?"
33353what is the matter?"
33353what would''Ettie say if she knew?"
33353whatever is the matter?
33353where are my manners?"
33353why will you persist in being a cold douche?
33353you wo n''t do it again, will you?"
284A flirtation? 284 A great deal more?
284A great deal of money? 284 A quarter past ten?
284A-- hem-- nothing of this, eh, Selden? 284 ARE you, though, Lily-- to the point of rejecting my offer?"
284Ah, but I do n''t suppose that: have n''t I told you that your genius lies in converting impulses into intentions?
284Ah, is that George''s version? 284 Ah, you are as bad as the other sectarians,"she exclaimed;"why do you call your republic a republic?
284Ah-- but will he find you in the end? 284 Alone--?
284An hotel-- HERE-- that you can go to alone? 284 And Americana are horribly dull, I suppose?"
284And Americana-- do you collect Americana?
284And at this hour of the day I do n''t suppose you''ve a single one left, have you, Lily?
284And having to work-- do you mind that?
284And how,she said, leaning forward,"are you getting on with your Americana?"
284And supposing I wo n''t ring for one-- what''ll you do then?
284And that nice little balcony is yours? 284 And yet they fetch fabulous prices, do n''t they?
284And you have come to it now?
284Angry with you? 284 Another dividend?"
284Are you ill?
284At seven?
284Be able to manage it? 284 Been up to town for a little shopping, I suppose?"
284Bertha never turned up at all? 284 Borrow-- easy for me to borrow?"
284Bridge? 284 But do n''t you want me to see you to the station?"
284But do you mind enough-- to marry to get out of it?
284But have n''t I?
284But how am I to get home? 284 But in what capacity?
284But is n''t it possible that, if I had the opportunities of these people, I might make a better use of them? 284 But see here-- if that''s the case, it cleans you out altogether?"
284But there must be some one----"Some one to whom I can go? 284 But what IS your story, Lily?
284But what can they do-- the Miss Silvertons? 284 But why are you going?
284But why ca n''t we be friends-- why not, when I''ve repented in dust and ashes? 284 But you belittle ME, do n''t you,"she returned gently,"in being so sure they are the only things I care for?"
284Buy the dirty sheet? 284 By Jove,--but is n''t she about somewhere?"
284By not having the superhuman cleverness to discover you in that frightful rush for the train? 284 Can they cook terrapin?
284Cards-- you''ve played cards for money? 284 Come off-- you ai n''t serious, are you?"
284DENOUEMENT-- isn''t that too big a word for such a small incident? 284 Dear me, am I late?"
284Dearest Lily,it ran,"if it is not too much of a bore to be down by ten, will you come to my sitting- room to help me with some tiresome things?"
284Did n''t he intend to, Judy? 284 Did she?
284Did you notice the women? 284 Did you really come to Bellomont to see me?"
284Disappointed? 284 Do I look ill?
284Do n''t I just? 284 Do n''t they always go from bad to worse?
284Do n''t you ever mind,she asked suddenly,"not being rich enough to buy all the books you want?"
284Do n''t you see that I wish to go by? 284 Do you know of a quiet hotel?
284Do you know,she exclaimed after a long pause,"I believe I''ll call up Lawrence on the telephone and tell him he simply MUST come?"
284Do you mean that I owe you money?
284Do you mean that Judy is not in the house-- not in town?
284Do you mean to say that Judy''s not well enough to see me? 284 Do you mean, like Gerty Farish, to recommend the unfailing panacea of''a good man''s love''?"
284Do you remember what you said to me once? 284 Do you see him often?"
284Do you think I am uncomplimentary? 284 Do you wish to see me?"
284Dreadful things-- what things?
284Either? 284 Every one heard, of course, that there had been some disagreement-- some misunderstanding----""Did she hear that Bertha turned me off the yacht?"
284Freedom? 284 From the beginning?"
284Furious with you? 284 Gambling debts?
284George Dorset? 284 Gerty, are people going to cut me?"
284Good Lord-- YOU? 284 Gus Trenor?--Lily and Gus Trenor?"
284Hallo, Selden, going too? 284 Have I time?
284He went to find me? 284 Hints-- from me to you?"
284How can you talk so, Lily? 284 How do you know the other women do n''t go to my dress- maker?"
284How do you know what I should be doing if you were not here?
284How on earth could Judy think you would do such a thing? 284 I do n''t understand; if this parcel is not mine, why have you asked for me?"
284I hope you''ve managed to make yourself comfortable, dear? 284 I wonder if you''ll cry out just as loud if I say-- Sim Rosedale?"
284I''m afraid I have n''t any cream, you know-- shall you mind a slice of lemon instead?
284I''m dying for tea-- but is n''t there a quieter place?
284If they are not true,she said,"does n''t THAT alter the situation?"
284Including ME?
284Is it quite right-- I have n''t made it too strong?
284Is it so very bad?
284Is it-- need it be? 284 Is n''t everything beautifully done?"
284Is n''t marriage your vocation? 284 Is that the name of this building?"
284Is that what you would do in such an emergency?
284Is the feeling so rare with you?
284Is there any final test of genius but success? 284 It does n''t sound very amusing, does it?
284It''s charming of you to remember me, dear; but really----"You''re already so well provided for?
284It''s over, then? 284 It''s understood, then?"
284Keeping together? 284 Late for what?"
284Lecture you-- I? 284 Lily!----PERCY?
284Lily, dear, if you''ve nothing special to do, may I tell Carry Fisher that you intend to drive to the station and fetch Gus? 284 Lily-- can''t I help you?"
284Lily-- what is it?
284Lily? 284 Look here, Lily: wo n''t you give me five minutes of your own accord?"
284Lose her?
284Making love to me without asking me to marry you?
284May I come in and smoke a cigarette over your fire? 284 Me?"
284Miss Bart!--You''ll shake hands, wo n''t you? 284 Miss Bart?
284Mrs. Fisher''s? 284 My dear Gerty, you would n''t have me let the head- waiter see that I''ve nothing to live on but Aunt Julia''s legacy?
284My dear, you do n''t mean to say you''re still in town? 284 My genius?"
284My idea of it? 284 No; but the being tied down: the routine-- don''t you ever want to get away, to see new places and people?"
284Not a drop of brandy or whiskey first? 284 Not for luncheon, certainly-- but perhaps you had an earlier engagement?"
284Not yet up? 284 Not your fault that Bertha did n''t turn up?
284Nothing will, I am sure; but while there''s even a doubt left, how can you think I would leave Bertha?
284Nothing? 284 Now what on earth does that mean?
284Of course you''ve heard that he''s perfectly devoted to Evie Van Osburgh? 284 Oh, Lily-- are you going to Bellomont?
284Oh, Mr. Gryce, is it you? 284 Oh, Mr. Rosedale-- how are you?"
284Oh, is she, though? 284 Other things being equal, I think I should prefer a half- husband: who is he?"
284Out of spirits? 284 Owe it?
284PEAS?
284Pay up?
284Pays her bills-- her bills?
284People ca n''t marry you if they do n''t see you-- and how can they see you in these holes where we''re stuck?
284Really? 284 Ruined----?"
284Shall we go over to Sherry''s for a cup of tea?
284Six dozen what?
284So soon? 284 Success-- what is success?
284Success?
284That rests with you, does n''t it? 284 That''s what Bertha means, is n''t it?"
284The Benedick?
284The Trenors''?
284The afternoon is so perfect-- don''t you want to drive me a little farther? 284 The privilege of driving me home?
284The reason for what?
284The whole truth?
284Then the best you can say for me is, that after struggling to get them I probably sha n''t like them?
284Then why do we never see each other? 284 Then why go?"
284Then you have come now because you think you can be of use to me?
284This is n''t the place? 284 To leave--?
284To stop here? 284 To support themselves?
284To take me out of my friends''way, you mean?
284Twelve dollars-- twelve dollars a day for flowers? 284 Unhappy at being with the Gormers?"
284Waited for the one- horse cab? 284 Waiting for me, I hope?"
284Walking? 284 Was it?
284Was n''t it a soft berth?
284Was n''t it dear of Lily to get me an invitation? 284 Was n''t she too beautiful, Lawrence?
284Well, is n''t that a tribute? 284 Well, then----?"
284Well, what''s the use of mincing matters? 284 Well, why not, dear?
284Well, why not? 284 Well,"he said,"did it make you want to see more?
284Well-- have you never foreseen it for yourself?
284Well-- why should n''t you hear my reasons for doing it, then? 284 Well----?"
284Well? 284 Were you serious?"
284What IS, then? 284 What are you thinking of, you incorrigible missionary?"
284What do you mean by her gambling debts?
284What happened-- an accident to the train?
284What is it that you wish?
284What is the matter, Hudson? 284 What is truth?
284What is your idea of being good friends?
284What more have you to say?
284What on earth have you been buying? 284 What sort of things do they say?
284What things? 284 What''s become of Dillworth?"
284What?
284Whatever happens? 284 When I was Judy''s friend?
284When is Lady Cressida going?
284When may I come to you?
284Whereas, in reality, you think I can never even get my foot across the threshold? 284 Which are your windows?
284Which way are you going? 284 Who are one''s friends at such a time?
284Who told you that my niece played cards for money?
284Who''s that? 284 Why did n''t she look me up herself, then?"
284Why do we call all our generous ideas illusions, and the mean ones truths? 284 Why do you do this to me?"
284Why do you make the things I have chosen seem hateful to me, if you have nothing to give me instead?
284Why do you talk of saying goodbye? 284 Why limited?
284Why must you go, I should like to know? 284 Why not Selden?
284Why not? 284 Why not?
284Why not? 284 Why not?"
284Why should I have come, unless I thought I could be of use to you? 284 Why such unnatural abstinence?
284Why, do n''t you smoke? 284 Why, what''s the matter, Miss Lily?
284Why?
284Will you let her stay with you?
284Would n''t it be too lovely for anything if she could grow up to be just like you? 284 YOU in trouble?
284Yes, that''s the name: I believe it''s an old word for bachelor, is n''t it? 284 You collect, do n''t you-- you know about first editions and things?"
284You did n''t know Jack had become our social censor?
284You do n''t mean--? 284 You do n''t sleep at night?
284You do see, do n''t you? 284 You do?"
284You have found something belonging to me?
284You have something to tell me-- do you mean to marry?
284You heard I had gone to her as her secretary?
284You know Mrs. Hatch, I think? 284 You mean that she''d shock him and he''d bore her?
284You mean to say that I''m not as desirable a match as you thought me?
284You missed us? 284 You play cards on Sunday?"
284You show such an intimate acquaintance with my affairs that I suppose you mean-- till my aunt''s legacy is paid?
284You stupid dear, why do you say such odious things to me? 284 You think me horribly sordid, do n''t you?
284You understand what the doctor has gone for? 284 You were as kind as possible; but I have had to get a few things since----""What kind of things?
284You will do as I tell you? 284 You''ll let me stay?
284You''re quite sure,she added solicitously, as the latter extricated herself,"that you would n''t like me to telephone for Lawrence Selden?"
284You''re sure you wo n''t let me warm up a drop of coffee for you, Miss Bart? 284 You''re wondering how I found out about''em?"
284Your FRIENDS, Lily-- how can you think it?
284Your coat''s a little shabby-- but who cares? 284 Your engagement to go to church with Muriel and Hilda?"
284Your street? 284 After all, Grace could come any other day; why should she mind being put off? 284 After all, this was an unexpectedly easy way of acquitting her debt; and had she not reasons of her own for wishing to be civil to Mr. Rosedale? 284 After all, what did he know of her life? 284 After that she had a right to retaliate-- why on earth did you interfere with her? 284 Ah, in New York, is she? 284 Ai n''t we going to be good friends all the same?
284All this in confidence, of course?
284Almost at once he answered quite simply:"But you do care for them, do n''t you?
284Am I not her friend still?
284And Aunt Julia--?"
284And I suppose most of the owners of Americana are not historians either?"
284And Lord Hubert has promised to tell us who all the awful people are at the other place-- hasn''t he, Carry?
284And again:"Be good to her, Gerty, wo n''t you?"
284And besides, I suppose she''ll be off herself before long-- the first of August, you say?
284And besides, what was there to go home to?
284And even could it have been found, how were the ladies on whose approval she depended to be induced to give her their patronage?
284And is the other person coming home this way?"
284And so why not take the plunge and have it over?"
284And so you gave him the sack, and that''s the reason why he lit out by the first train this morning?"
284And then what can I do-- how on earth am I to keep myself alive?
284And to divert her companion''s attention she added, with an attempt at lightness:"And your second candidate?
284And to what degree was her dread of a catastrophe intensified by the sense of being fatally involved in it?
284And was he to be there for a whole week?
284And was it her fault that the purely decorative mission is less easily and harmoniously fulfilled among social beings than in the world of nature?
284And was not Dorset, to whom his glance had passed by a natural transition, too jerkily wavering between the same extremes?
284And what hand but hers could drag him up again to a footing of sanity and self- respect?
284And who could consent to be bored on such a morning?
284And who else is there?
284And why should Bertha Dorset have turned into an enemy at the very moment when she so obviously needed the support of her sex?
284Are there actually two?"
284Are they so hard up?"
284Are you going to become one of us?"
284Are you ill?"
284As she handed back the reins, she said sympathetically:"Did you have such a lot of tiresome things to do?"
284At sight of Lily the glow deepened to an embarrassed red, and she said with a slight laugh:"Did you see my visitor?
284Between my niece and a married man?
284But I thought Mr. Gryce was to stay for the rest of the week?"
284But WERE such apparitions unwonted on Selden''s stairs?
284But ca n''t I at least appeal to your pity?
284But could photography capture that light?
284But for her, what ear would have been open to his cries?
284But he remained mutely resistant, and she added:"What are you going to do?
284But he''s horribly shy, and easily shocked, and-- and----""Why do n''t you say it, Judy?
284But how could she trust herself to keep her footing?
284But how destroy them so effectually that there should be no second risk of their falling in such hands?
284But if anything should, why be in the way of it?"
284But it''s usually the other way round, is n''t it?
284But meanwhile, what do you say to putting a few things in a trunk and coming down with me to the Sam Gormers''tonight?"
284But of course I won''t-- why did n''t you give me a hint last night?
284But sometimes she was forgetful-- and sometimes, could it be that she was proud?
284But there''s such a thing as fair play-- and interest on one''s money-- and hang me if I''ve had as much as a look from you----""Your money?
284But were n''t you sure that I should come?"
284But what HAVE you done to her, Lily?
284But what did she intend to do with its contents?
284But what did that matter, now that a new day had come?
284But what for?
284But what manner of life would it be?
284But what was there that Rosedale did not hear?
284But whose fault was it?
284But why ai n''t you straight with me-- why do you put up that kind of bluff?
284But why had she failed?
284But wo n''t you eat something?
284But you could n''t, eh?
284Ca n''t I move you if I ask you to think of me as a prisoner-- a prisoner you alone can set free?"
284Ca n''t some one be put somewhere else?
284Can you imagine looking into your glass some morning and seeing a disfigurement-- some hideous change that has come to you while you slept?
284Clothes?
284Could Selden picture her in such an interior?
284Could it be that her aunt suspected anything?
284Could one never do the simplest, the most harmless thing, without subjecting one''s self to some odious conjecture?
284DO you say so, Miss Lily?"
284Did I tell you that Lily had given us three hundred dollars?
284Did Judy really think you could bring yourself to marry that portentous little ass?
284Did he really mean to ask her to marry him?
284Did she think that only the payment of the legacies had been delayed?
284Did the cheque to Trenor explain the mystery or deepen it?
284Did you ever see such jewels?
284Did you ever taste anything more delicious than that MOUSSE of lobster with champagne sauce?
284Did you ever watch Trenor eat?
284Dining here?
284Do n''t you feel strong enough to walk on a little ways now?"
284Do n''t you like her best in that simple dress?
284Do n''t you see how beautifully it would work out for you both?"
284Do people say he''s in love with her?"
284Do you dislike him so much?"
284Do you know at what time she came on board?
284Do you know if he found him?"
284Do you know, Lily, he told me he had never seen a girl play cards for money till he saw you doing it the other night?
284Do you live here?"
284Do you mean to say you''ve actually done it?"
284Do you owe two?
284Do you see where I''m coming out?
284Do you take me for a saint on a pillar?"
284Does he mind bridge, too?
284Does my face show it?"
284Does n''t she want me to go upstairs?"
284Does n''t this room look as if it was waiting for the body to be brought down?
284Does one go to Caliban for a judgment on Miranda?
284EVIE VAN OSBURGH?
284Especially if he marries my clever cousin----"Selden dashed in with the query:"And the Wellington Brys''?
284Ever forget, and feel as they did before?"
284Ever try orangeine?"
284Every one knows, as you say, that Lily is too handsome and-- and charming-- to devote herself to a man like Gus Trenor unless--""Unless?"
284Every sleepless night leaves a new one-- and how can I sleep, when I have such dreadful things to think about?"
284Evie Van Osburgh and Percy Gryce?
284Freedom from worries?"
284Gerty cried in a strange voice,"how could you get here so quickly?"
284Goddesses?
284Grotesque?
284HAS it started, do you know?"
284Had he returned to the Sabrina?
284Had it been produced, she wondered, by her chance meeting with Selden?
284Had she gone to bed?
284Had she lacked patience, pliancy and dissimulation?
284Had she shown an undue eagerness for victory?
284Had you known her before?"
284Have you a fire?"
284Have you noticed that ALL the husbands like her?
284Have you seen Evie?
284He DIDN''T lose?
284He added tentatively, after pausing to grope for a cigarette:"Miss Bart''s an old friend of yours, I believe?
284He''s a lawyer is n''t he?
284He''s such a nice boy-- I wonder what drove him away?
284Her voice sank to a whisper:"And if she refuses?"
284How about the irreclaimable ones, though?
284How could he lift Lily to a freer vision of life, if his own view of her was to be coloured by any mind in which he saw her reflected?
284How do they mean to support themselves?"
284How many have you broken for me?"
284How much did he know of what was going on, and how much, for his purpose, was still worth finding out?
284How much have you spent?
284How much of it was owing to the spell of the perfect afternoon, the scent of the fading woods, the thought of the dulness she had fled from?
284How should she have distrusted her powers?
284How then would he use his power when her expression of contempt had dispelled his one motive for restraint?
284How''d I know?
284How, moreover, can a young woman who has never been ignored measure the pang which this injury inflicts?
284I did n''t tell you I had a baby, did I?
284I do so enjoy the quiet-- don''t you, Lily?
284I have n''t kept you up too late, Gerty?
284I have the reputation of being on the hunt for a rich husband?"
284I sha n''t mind when daylight comes-- Is it late?
284I was punished enough at the time-- is there to be no respite for me?"
284I''ll be there sharp, remember; you wo n''t go back on me, Lily?"
284IF SHE DID NOT MARRY HIM?
284If her aunt turned such a stony ear to the fiction of the gambling debts, in what spirit would she receive the terrible avowal of the truth?
284If the girl was afraid, was she afraid for herself or for her friends?
284If you really want to see me, why should n''t we take a walk in the Park some afternoon?
284In fact, people are inclined to excuse her on that account----""To excuse her for what?"
284In this house?"
284Is it a celibate order?"
284Is n''t it a jolly little house?
284Is n''t it a sufficient condemnation of society to find one''s self accepting such phraseology?
284Is n''t it fairer to look at them both as opportunities, which may be used either stupidly or intelligently, according to the capacity of the user?"
284Is n''t it hard that you should condemn me to suffer for the falseness, the treachery of others?
284Is n''t it what you''re all brought up for?"
284Is n''t that what she told Gwen Stepney?"
284Is n''t that your idea of it?"
284Is that any excuse?
284Is that the last creation of the dress- maker you go to see at the Benedick?
284Is the night nearly over?
284Is there any one else?
284Is your last box of Doucet dresses a failure, or did Judy rook you out of everything at bridge last night?"
284It was Rosedale, fur- coated, glossy and prosperous-- but why did she seem to see him so far off, and as if through a mist of splintered crystals?
284It was a hateful fate-- but how escape from it?
284It was her turn to look at him with surprise; and after a moment--"Do you want to marry me?"
284It would scarcely have carried the four of us, do you think?"
284It''s settled?
284It''s too late to walk there, you say?
284Jewelry?
284Let me light a cigar, will you?
284Lily flushed at the suddenness of the attack; then she stiffened under it and said coldly:"And may I ask where you mean me to go?"
284Lily''s glance fell on a word here and there-- then she said in a low voice:"What do you wish me to pay you?"
284Lily''s inward start betrayed itself in a quick blush: was it possible that this was really the sense of Carry Fisher''s adumbrations?
284Lily?"
284Lily?"
284Limited by luncheon?"
284Look me straight in the face, Gerty, and tell me: am I perfectly frightful?"
284Luckily I had foreseen the risk I was taking----""So that you really did n''t care----?"
284Mattie Gormer told me that Morpeth wanted to paint you-- why do n''t you let him?"
284May n''t I tell the florist to send a few every day?"
284Might n''t there be circumstances----?"
284Mrs. Dorset, examining her between lowered lids, met this with the immediate query:"Who told you that?"
284Not so bad for a beginner, eh?
284Now did n''t she?"
284Now, what has changed in the interval?
284Now, what have you got to say against that?"
284Of course-- any number-- but at THIS hour?
284Oh, by Jove-- you do n''t mean Gryce?
284Oh, how do you do, Mr. Gryce?
284Oh, my dear, did you ever see such pearls?"
284Oh-- the reason they chucked Sicily and rushed back?
284One sits out a cotillion-- why not sit out a train?
284Only, with such a doom impending, why waste time in these childish efforts to avert it?
284Or could Bertha-- the dread alternative sprang on her suddenly-- could Bertha, left to herself, have gone ashore to rejoin him?
284Or would he pity me, and understand me, and save me from loathing myself?"
284Percy Gryce?
284Perhaps I am in the way, then?
284Rather clever of its kind, do n''t you think?"
284Rather original of them, do n''t you think so?
284Shall we walk a bit?"
284She could bear it-- yes, she could bear it; but what strength would be left her the next day?
284She felt a thrill of vexation: what right had he to touch her?
284She had been fashioned to adorn and delight; to what other end does nature round the rose- leaf and paint the humming- bird''s breast?
284She had been so contented, life had seemed so simple and sufficient-- why had he come to trouble her with new hopes?
284She had heard of my break with the Dorsets?"
284She had made the caramel custard with her own hands?
284She paused, and went on, dropping her glance from Lily''s:"He would n''t stay with her ten minutes if he KNEW----""Knew----?"
284She was too self- engrossed to penetrate the recesses of his shyness, and besides, why should she care to give herself the trouble?
284Since when have you given it up?
284Since when?"
284Something has happened-- an accident?
284Something has happened-- can''t you tell me?"
284Stay for supper?
284Talk of jewels-- what''s a woman want with jewels when she''s got herself to show?
284Tell me-- do they ever pick themselves up?
284That Farish boy?
284That he means to get a divorce and marry her?"
284That it is apt to be hampered by material necessities or complicated by moral scruples?
284That man is a perfect barometer-- he always knows when Bertha is going to----""To fall?"
284That you could help me only by loving me?
284The Trenors are at Bellomont, of course?
284The lines in her face came out terribly-- she looked old; and when a girl looks old to herself, how does she look to other people?
284The one with the green Paradise?
284The puerility of the attempt disarmed Lily''s indignation: did it not prove how horribly the poor creature was frightened?
284The whole ten thousand?"
284The words rang out on a note of contempt-- was it possibly of contempt for himself?
284Then how on earth did she get back?"
284Then she had been planning to marry Percy Gryce-- what was it she was planning now?
284Then you ca n''t let me have your seat, I suppose?
284Then you thought you could do better; now----""You think you can?"
284There would be a perilous moment, perhaps: but could she not trust to her beauty to bridge it over, to land her safe in the shelter of his devotion?
284There''s a lad just setting out to discover the universe: is n''t it a pity he should end by finding it in Mrs. Fisher''s drawing- room?"
284There''s nothing grimmer than the tragedy that wears a comic mask.... Where was he?
284Think it''s funny I should say that?
284Thinner--?
284This vast mysterious Wall Street world of"tips"and"deals"--might she not find in it the means of escape from her dreary predicament?
284Those with the awnings down?"
284Was it a growing distaste for her task, or actual physical disability?
284Was it her own fault or that of destiny?
284Was it love, she wondered, or a mere fortuitous combination of happy thoughts and sensations?
284Was it mad with mommer for getting its supper so late?
284Was it merely the expression of her displeasure at Miss Bart''s neglect, or had disquieting rumours reached her?
284Was it only ten years since she had wavered in imagination between the English earl and the Italian prince?
284Was it possible that her old beast of an aunt had actually cut her off?
284Was it possible that she belonged to the same race?
284Was it possible, after all, that he had come for Bertha Dorset?
284Was it to see herself or Bertha Dorset?
284Was n''t it splendid of her?
284Was n''t she wonderful last night?"
284Was she not, indeed, too free, too fluent, for perfect naturalness?
284Was there not a promise of rescue in his love?
284Well, what''s the harm?
284Well-- what had brought him there but the quest of her?
284What WILL happen?"
284What am I to do with you?"
284What are you chucking it away for?"
284What can one do when one finds that one only fits into one hole?
284What chance could such a simpleton have against her if she chose to exert herself?
284What choice had she?
284What debt did she owe to a social order which had condemned and banished her without trial?
284What did he mean by looking at her in that way?
284What did the creature suppose?
284What do you mean?
284What do you mean?
284What do you think he said to me after her TABLEAU?
284What does that matter, when it''s so light and alive?
284What else is there?"
284What had brought her to this pass?
284What has happened?"
284What have I to do with your money?
284What if she made him marry her for love, now that he had no other reason for marrying her?
284What if she now chose to exert the power which, even in its passive state, he had felt so strongly?
284What if the effect of the drug should gradually fail, as all narcotics were said to fail?
284What is going to happen?"
284What is the name?
284What made her so much more clumsy than usual?
284What more have you done than any friend might do, or any one accept from a friend?"
284What prevented her from saying:"He is like other men?"
284What right had she to dream the dreams of loveliness?
284What sweet shall we have today, dear-- COUPE JACQUES or PECHES A LA MELBA?"
284What was the use of living if one had to live like a pig?
284What was this outpouring of senseless bitterness but the tracked creature''s attempt to cloud the medium through which it was fleeing?
284What weakness had placed her so abominably at her enemy''s mercy?
284What will she think?"
284What wind of folly had driven her out again on those dark seas?
284What''s on tonight?
284What, that horrid man?
284What, then, if the passion persisted, though the other motive had ceased to sustain it?
284What-- you do?
284What-- you never---- And you do n''t either, Mr. Gryce?
284When had Lily ever really felt, or pitied, or understood?
284When he was with us?"
284When it was you who seized the first opportunity to rush off with the Duchess and her friends?
284When, in such matters, are a woman''s perceptions at fault?
284Where was Lily to find such support?
284Where was she going, by the way?
284Where was the drug that could still this legion of insurgent nerves?
284Who but Selden could thus miraculously combine the skill to save Bertha with the obligation of doing so?
284Who can have given it?"
284Who said she was in town, by the way?
284Who wants a dingy woman?
284Who, but you, you poor trustful darling?
284Why ca n''t we be friends?
284Why ca n''t you come back to Bellomont this evening?
284Why could one never do a natural thing without having to screen it behind a structure of artifice?
284Why did n''t you call on me to share your vigil?"
284Why do n''t you come oftener?"
284Why do n''t you tell me frankly that I''m a wreck?
284Why else did you ask me to let you off bridge, and to keep away Carry and Kate Corby?
284Why else had she suddenly grown interested in Selden?
284Why had he come?
284Why had she been writing to Trenor-- writing, presumably, just after their parting of the previous evening?
284Why must a girl pay so dearly for her least escape from routine?
284Why on earth should you ever be out of spirits?
284Why should I mind saying I want to get into society?
284Why should she have been angry?
284Why wo n''t you sit down and let me make you comfortable?"
284Why, do n''t you like it?
284Why, what on earth are you doing?"
284Why?
284Why?"
284Will you come tomorrow?
284Will you join us on a cruise in Mediterranean?"
284Would she still reject them if they were offered?
284Yes-- but what if the letter to Trenor had been written afterward?
284You can frighten her fast enough-- but how are you going to keep her frightened?
284You do n''t mean that you wo n''t help me?"
284You do n''t want to keep me bound fast in hell, do you?
284You have been frightened-- what has frightened you?
284You remember what fun Lady Skiddaw was?
284You saw it, then?"
284You say she was dining there?
284You understand?
284You waited for us at the station?"
284You wo n''t take a drop, just for sociability?
284You''re sure?"
284You''ve known Lawrence Selden for years-- why did you behave as if you had just discovered him?
284and:"She has it in her to become whatever she is believed to be-- you''ll help her by believing the best of her?"
284he exclaimed; and to her murmur of"Ah, we do NOW,"he retorted with a sudden burst of violence:"I suppose it''s because the letters are to HIM, then?
284what could I do-- wasn''t I powerless?
284what has happened?
284you know the noise of their wings-- alone, at night, in the dark?
41646''"In what way, Sir?"
41646''"Is it news from Jamaica then?
41646''A cold?''
41646''Ah, tell me, my sister, what hopes are there that Emmeline will pardon me?
41646''Alive and well?''
41646''And Lord Montreville?''
41646''And are all the family there?''
41646''And did he not object,''enquired Lady Adelina,''to your quitting England, since he is himself returned to it?''
41646''And do you mean that we should begin our journey to- morrow?''
41646''And does he tell you no news,''asked Lady Montreville?
41646''And from thence to East Cliff?''
41646''And from whence,''enquired Emmeline,''did he come?''
41646''And has she not preferred a request to you?''
41646''And he had every assistance?''
41646''And he has brought you, I fear, some ill news of your family?''
41646''And how happened you to be where he found you, Miss Mowbray?''
41646''And how long do you think,''said she, again recurring to Delamere--''how long may he linger before the event will be known?''
41646''And how,''enquired Godolphin,''did you accomplish it?''
41646''And if Bellozane should enquire whither you are going?
41646''And is Adelina so thin and pale,''asked her Ladyship,''as she is here represented?''
41646''And is it anger and resentment only have raised in your heart this decided enmity to my poor brother?
41646''And is it possible you are ignorant of his having left London this morning, immediately after he returned from visiting you?''
41646''And not one word,''cried he,''not one parting good wish to your little_ protegà ©_--to my poor William?''
41646''And shall he who has wounded it,''slowly and sternly replied Godolphin--''shall he who has wounded it so basely, escape me?''
41646''And what business could Sir Richard Crofts possibly have with you?''
41646''And what has a man to answer for, who thus comes to insult his victim, and to rob her of the little tranquillity time may have restored to her?''
41646''And when are they expected?''
41646''And where do you expect to get money?''
41646''And where is Mr. Delamere wandering to?''
41646''And whither would you go, Miss Mowbray?''
41646''And who, Madam, has said that I dare not own her?
41646''And why not to herself?
41646''And why not?
41646''And why not?''
41646''And will you leave me, then, Emmeline?--leave me too in anger?''
41646''And will you not write to my sister?''
41646''And you allow me, then, to go instantly to Lord Montreville?''
41646''And you dine alone, and will allow me the happiness of dining with you?''
41646''And you will allow me to see you safe thither?''
41646''And_ is_ he,''enquired Lady Westhaven,''so_ very_ charming as his brother and his family represent him?''
41646''Are they all well?''
41646''Are you acquainted then with Miss Mowbray, Sir?''
41646''Are you acquainted with her?''
41646''Are you going immediately to London?''
41646''Are you going then, Sir, before my Lord and Lady?''
41646''As what, Sir, should I remember you, but as my persecutor?
41646''At Woodfield, Sir?''
41646''Before I am sure he desires it?''
41646''But Lord Delamere, Sir?''
41646''But how do you know, Barret, that your lady employs herself in writing verses about her own unhappiness?''
41646''But it is very cold,''remarked he:''had not you better take a cloak?''
41646''But may he not immediately return thither from Geneva or any other place?
41646''But since you are so tenderly disposed towards your own family, would it not be well if you were to enquire after my mother?
41646''But they are well, Sir?''
41646''But what-- what is to be done, Sir?''
41646''But whence comes it that you sail only to- night, if your friend was so much hurried?''
41646''But you will come with us, brother?--Surely you will now come home?''
41646''But, Sir, when may they be expected in England?''
41646''But, Sir,''enquired Mr. Lawson,''after what you have told me of your father, have you no apprehension of a pursuit?''
41646''By way of Paris?''
41646''Can nothing be done for these poor creatures?''
41646''Can you then suppose I will leave her?
41646''Crofts''wife?''
41646''Delamere, still on his knees, looked sorrowfully up, as if to enquire what reparation he could make?
41646''Delamere,''said she, in a low and tremulous voice,''Delamere, why is all this?
41646''Did I not hear him groan, and see him die?
41646''Did it?
41646''Did you answer it?''
41646''Did you not tell me he was in tolerable health?''
41646''Did you observe,''said Emmeline,''the phaeton which drove in just now?''
41646''Do n''t tell me of Mrs. Ashwood-- but tell me where is my son?
41646''Do not, Emmeline-- do not, I conjure you, refuse me this favour?''
41646''Do you know whether they have ever corresponded?''
41646''Do you know,''said the Chevalier, addressing himself to Emmeline,''that I have had some trouble, my fair friend, to find you?''
41646''Do you suspect that he wavers then?''
41646''Do you then hope, Sir,''said Emmeline,''that I shall patiently become the victim of your rashness?
41646''Do you think I can assist you home?''
41646''Do you think she is a French woman?''
41646''Do you,''reassumed Mrs. Stafford--''do you not recollect the voice?''
41646''Does Miss Mowbray go with my sister?''
41646''Engagements with Mr. Maloney, my Lord?
41646''For London, my Lord?''
41646''For impertinence?''
41646''For mercy''s sake tell me,''Godolphin, as he took the cold and trembling hands of Emmeline in his--''for mercy''s sake tell me what all this means?
41646''For what purpose?''
41646''Has Adelina had any previous knowledge of the proposals Fitz- Edward intends to make?''
41646''Has my Lord, Sir,''said Emmeline to Delamere,--''has my Lord Montreville been so good as to honour me with any commands?''
41646''Has she not written to you?''
41646''Has, then, any thing happened?''
41646''Have I deserved to be your uncle?
41646''Have I then found you, my lovely cousin?''
41646''Have you cleaned and loaded my pistols?''
41646''Have you found-- Delamere?''
41646''Have you seen Mr. Delamere, Sir?''
41646''Have you then a portrait of Adelina,''enquired Lady Clancarryl,''and have not yet shewn it me?''
41646''Have you, in one little week,''said the faultering Emmeline,''occasion to ask that question?''
41646''He is dead then?''
41646''How can I refuse him?''
41646''How can I, dearest Madam-- how can I, with any propriety, go where Lord Delamere is?
41646''How do you, Madam?''
41646''How is Adelina, my dearest Miss Mowbray?''
41646''How is the young lady you was so good as to assist on shore, Sir?''
41646''I do promise then,''said he,''to take you to Mrs. Stafford''s; but''----''But what?''
41646''I enquired after the unhappy Trelawny?
41646''I hope not,''answered Emmeline, without knowing what she said--''Surely you do not mean it?''
41646''I hope, however, you, my Lord, have had no dispute on my account with the Marquis?''
41646''I should be glad to know( if it were worth my while to enquire) what business Bellozane has with_ her_?''
41646''Impossible!--Surely you can not have made such a resolution?''
41646''Is he not in London then?--is he not married?''
41646''Is he not one of the best creatures in the world?''
41646''Is it not possible to listen?''
41646''Is it not remarkable,''said Mrs. Stafford,''that you should voluntarily have conducted us to France, and by chance escort us home?''
41646''Is it then probable any one can forget her?
41646''Is my Lord or Mr. Delamere arrived?''
41646''Is she a young lady?''
41646''It snows too much,''said he,''for a comfortable conference, unless you will give me leave to sit by you; where are you going to?''
41646''Let him-- Of what consequence is it to us what such a puppy thinks?
41646''Let me then, thus encouraged, go farther-- and ask if I have a place in your esteem?''
41646''Lord Delamere is, I conclude, much better?''
41646''Lord, Miss,''cried the servant,''did you ring?
41646''Loveliest Miss Mowbray, how thoughtlessly have I alarmed you!--Can you forgive me?''
41646''Merciful Heaven, what can be done?
41646''Miss Mowbray is fatigued with her voyage,''said he, tenderly approaching her--''The night air I am afraid has affected her health?''
41646''My dear boy here?''
41646''My-- love to them both, Sir?''
41646''No death, I hope?''
41646''No message-- no letter-- not one kind word,''said he, gently detaining her,''to poor Adelina?
41646''No, no, child,''said her mother,''I shall not send you, indeed-- but Crofts, do you think we should be able to make it out?''
41646''No-- what was there remarkable about it?''
41646''No-- why do you ask?''
41646''Not part with it?
41646''Of what nature is it?''
41646''Of which nation is she, Le Limosin?''
41646''Of whose death, dear Madam?''
41646''Oh, yes,''said he,''I saw them all at Paris, and asked them if they had any commands to you?
41646''Oh, your name is Mounseer, is it?''
41646''Only-- are you known at Bath?''
41646''Pray who is Miss Mowbray?''
41646''Pray, Sir,''said the bar maid to Elkerton,''who is that young gentleman?''
41646''Pray, do you know where he now is?''
41646''Shall I answer for Lord Montreville,''said a voice behind them,''as his immediate representative?''
41646''Shall I bring up a gentleman to see you who I am assured is able in his profession?
41646''Shall I send one of the carriages for her?''
41646''Shall I speak to him?''
41646''Shall I take him from you, Ma''am?''
41646''Shall we then see Lady Adelina in town?''
41646''Shall you return again to London, Sir, before you proceed into Hampshire?''
41646''Should I take Master, Sir?''
41646''Sir, I hope you, and my Lord and Lady Montreville, have been well since I had last the honour of seeing you?''
41646''Sir,''said he,''have you seen Miss Mowbray to- day?''
41646''Steady!--Has your Lordship forgotten Miss Otley?''
41646''Stupid dog!--why should you care whether you meet him or no?''
41646''Surely he will not attempt it?''
41646''Surely,''cried Emmeline, alarmed,''you have heard nothing unpleasant from France?''
41646''Surely,''said he,''surely she knows I am here?''
41646''Tell me, Emmeline, have I really only dreamed, or was a stranger here yesterday?
41646''Tell me, Miss Mowbray-- will she after a proper time refuse, do you think, her consent to see me?
41646''Tell me, colonel, what ought I to do?''
41646''Tell me, first, whether your journey remains fixed for Thursday?--whether you still hold your generous resolution of going to Adelina?''
41646''Tell me,''said she,''before I die with terror-- tell me with what intention you come to- morrow?''
41646''That he has a fortunate rival?''
41646''Then you know, perhaps----But you are undoubtedly well acquainted with Colonel Fitz- Edward?''
41646''To drive him to despair?
41646''To her father, puppy?''
41646''To his family?''
41646''To his fortune?''
41646''To kill you?''
41646''Was you even then thus indifferent?
41646''Well, my Lord,''continued she, addressing herself to her husband,''what do you intend to do about this unhappy, infatuated boy?''
41646''Were it not best to enquire after her?''
41646''Were not all preparations for your marriage in great forwardness, Sir, when you left England?
41646''What answer do you mean to give it?
41646''What can I do with her?''
41646''What can I refuse you?''
41646''What can be the meaning of this?''
41646''What designs, Lord Delamere?''
41646''What disturbs Miss Mowbray?''
41646''What does she say, Fanny?''
41646''What information, Sir?''
41646''What is it?''
41646''What is that, my Lord?''
41646''What say_ your_ letters from England, my fairest cousin?''
41646''What then does she do?''
41646''What then?''
41646''What will you say, my dear Adelina, if I bring you the best news you can possibly hear?''
41646''What would you have me do?
41646''What would you have me do?''
41646''What, Sir, can I say?''
41646''What, brother?--what are you speaking of?''
41646''What?''
41646''Whatever it is Sir,''said his Lordship impatiently,''let me hear it at once.--Is it a dismission from my office?''
41646''When was he expected?''
41646''When?''
41646''Whence is it,''said she, after a pause of some moments, that I see you here?
41646''Whence then, these tears?''
41646''Where does she live?''
41646''Where have I on earth such a friend but in my Emmeline?
41646''Where is he then?''
41646''Where is she?''
41646''Where is she?''
41646''Where, then, is he?''
41646''Who is so good as to recollect me?''
41646''Who is this young person, Sir?''
41646''Who told you I have done so-- Godolphin?''
41646''Who, my Lord?''
41646''Whose sweet little boy are you, my love?''
41646''Why distress yourself in this manner, Miss Mowbray?
41646''Why do_ you_ not speak to him, Emmeline?''
41646''Why does Mr. Delamere certainly return in March?''
41646''Why should I be unhappy?
41646''Why so, pray?''
41646''Why stop?''
41646''Why then do you not quit it?''
41646''Why this terror?
41646''Why will he not come in, then?''
41646''Why, my dear Emmeline, how is this?
41646''Why, my dear Miss Mowbray, do you suffer this man''s folly to affect you?
41646''Why, where in the world can she be?''
41646''Will it content you if I promise you_ not_ to write to Lord Montreville, nor to cause him to be written to; and to see you again?''
41646''Will you dine with us, Delamere?''
41646''Will you do me the honour to peruse them, my Lord?''
41646''With whom?''
41646''Would you go then,''answered Mrs. Stafford,''to confirm her fears and to drive her to deeper desperation?
41646''Yes; and wherefore are you terrified?''
41646''Yet one thing, Captain Godolphin, allow me to entreat of you?''
41646''You are acquainted, Sir, with a lady of the name of Ashwood, who lives at Clapham?''
41646''You are ill, Emmeline?''
41646''You dread it!--and why dread it?''
41646''You have heard no unfavourable news, I hope, of Lady Adelina or your little boy?''
41646''You have not, then, been with her?''
41646''You intend then,''said James Crofts, unable entirely to conceal his chagrin--''you intend to begin a suit with my Lord Montreville?''
41646''You promise me then?''
41646''You then positively reject the overtures of Maloney?''
41646''_ Comment?
41646''_ If_ it ever takes place at all?''
41646( advancing towards her)''is it thus you fulfil the promise you gave me?
41646A man''s voice asked who it was?
41646A smartish piece of goods upon my word for Pembrokeshire; quite a London lady, eh, Miss?''
41646After a long pause, Emmeline, in faultering accents, asked''if the situation of Lord Delamere was absolutely desperate?''
41646After remaining a few moments, she came out again, and asked Mrs. Stafford if she wanted the woman of the house?
41646After the separation which has now so decidedly and irrevocably taken place between us, shall I intrude again on his Lordship''s sight?
41646Alpin?''
41646Alpin?]
41646And are not they enough?
41646And do you suppose I mean to sacrifice the happiness of my whole life to the narrow policy or selfish ambition of my father?''
41646And if Mr. Godolphin refuses----''''What, if he refuses?''
41646And in that event how was she herself to act?
41646And is it thus you intend to atone for all the insults of your family which you have so repeatedly protested you would never forgive?
41646And to what could such an extraordinary change be owing, if not to his attachment to Emmeline Mowbray?
41646And will she refuse to come to me?
41646And you, Mr. Delamere-- do you still obstinately persist in this ridiculous, this unworthy attachment?''
41646Are you not now nearly as independant as you will be then?''
41646Ask her whether she can divest herself of all regard for me?
41646At dinner, Delamere enquired''whether his charming cousin was always to remain a prisoner in her own room?''
41646At length Fitz- Edward stopped, and said--''At what hour to- morrow, Sir, may I have the honour of some conversation with you?''
41646Avarice asked whether he could depend on modesty, reserve, and a retired turn, in a girl not yet eighteen?
41646Besides, my sweet coz, pray consider a moment, what else can you do?
41646But avarice enquired how he could offer to marry a woman without a shilling?
41646But how could she determine to become an inmate at the house of Godolphin, even tho''he was himself to be absent from it?
41646But how happens it that he knew not, Sir, of your return?
41646But if you continue to harden your heart against me, of what advantage will it be to them?
41646But if you please I will enquire of him?''
41646But pray what relation to them can this Miss Mowbray be?''
41646But pray where is she?''
41646But prithee, my old friend, is this young lady your ward?''
41646But tell me, Emmeline, do you think if I apply to Lord Montreville he will allow you to pass some time with me?''
41646But tell me,''continued he,''what I am to say to poor Maloney?''
41646But to what do we owe the happiness of seeing you here, when we thought you on the point of sailing for France by another route?''
41646But what is all this to the purpose?
41646But what is it to me?
41646But what shall we do with Adelina?''
41646But what would you receive in the widow of Trelawny?
41646But when he found he could not avoid him, he turned fiercely towards him--''Why do you follow me, Sir?
41646But whence comes it that I find you, Madam, here?
41646But wherefore that air of defiance which Mr. Fitz- Edward thought it necessary to assume?
41646But who is it?
41646But why did you indulge her in this melancholy taste?''
41646But will he not carry it too far, if now that his sister is released from her detested marriage he still persists in dividing us?''
41646But, but''added he, as if recollecting himself,''may I not apply for information on that head to her physician?''
41646Can you quit at pleasure the affluent and high- born heiress as you quitted the deserted and solitary orphan?''
41646Can you yourself be happy under such circumstances?
41646Can your Lordship again fly from your promises?
41646Colonel Fitz- Edward, would it not be better for you now to leave us?''
41646Could she go where he was, and conceal her partiality?
41646Could you hereafter have any dependance on one, who holds her integrity so lightly?
41646Crofts, my Lord; Mr. Crofts is, I find, married--''''To_ my_ daughter, Sir Richard.--Is it not so?''
41646Crofts?
41646Delamere is here, Madam, and begs to know whether he may see you?''
41646Delamere is your near relation?''
41646Delamere, very much alarmed at her altered looks, anxiously enquired the cause?
41646Delamere?''
41646Delamere?''
41646Delamere?''
41646Delamere?--what of my son?''
41646Did I not come hither on the assurance you gave me that you would long be detained in or near London by the business of your sister?''
41646Did he not abandon me to my destiny?
41646Do me the favour to say from whom you apprehend she may receive such treatment?''
41646Do n''t you think he was, Bellozane?''
41646Do n''t you think so, George?''
41646Do you design to kill me?''
41646Do you know all?
41646Do you think that a rebellious and unfeeling son is likely to make a good husband, a good father?''
41646Does not the same blood run in our veins?
41646Emmeline flew to the stairs--''Is it Lord Delamere?''
41646Emmeline soon satisfied Lady Adelina on that head, who then asked when she heard of Delamere?
41646Emmeline, white and faint, leaned on Godolphin--''Where is he, where is my brother?''
41646Fitz- Edward gone to France?''
41646Fitz- Edward,''cried Godolphin,''will you walk with me into another room?''
41646Forgive, Sir, if I ask what particular circumstance has been the cause of the uneasiness under which she appears to labour?
41646Give me a moment''s time to consider; if indeed the young lady could''--''What, Sir?
41646God!--but what?''
41646Godolphin too!--whither would Godolphin go?
41646Godolphin, is it not?''
41646Godolphin, with a countenance paler than death, caught her in his arms--''Whither would you go?''
41646Godolphin?''
41646Godolphin?''
41646Had I no place in your heart, Madam, when you would have given me your hand?''
41646Had you not better quit us?''
41646Has she proper advice?''
41646Have I offended beyond all hopes of pardon?''
41646Have I taken any medicine that has confused my head, or how happens it that I appear to have been in a long and most uneasy dream?
41646Have you no salts?
41646Have you nothing to give her?''
41646He blushed deeply, and his voice faultering with anxiety, he cried--''What?--who, Sir?--a young lady?--what young lady?''
41646He checked his horse, and said, somewhat sternly,''So, Sir, where have you been?''
41646He has only a fever?''
41646He read them twice over in silence; then looking with astonishment at Emmeline, he asked her from whence she had these papers?
41646He started up, and said fiercely to Crofts--''Well, Sir!--have you any commands here?''
41646He then asked her,''whether, if the consent of Lord and Lady Montreville could be obtained, she would continue averse to him?''
41646He then left the room, desiring Emmeline to comfort and compose his sister, who soon afterwards asked hastily what was become of him?
41646He therefore asked Lady Montreville, whether she really wished to see Miss Mowbray, and when?
41646His Lordship, ever anxious for his son, gazed eagerly at it while Fitz- Edward read it; and trembling, asked from whom it came?
41646How could Emmeline account for one without revealing the other?
41646How long has she been gone?''
41646How_ could_ you be so cruel, so inconsiderate?''
41646I asked what was the matter?
41646I can not imagine, my Lord, what you have been saying to her?''
41646I hope the person who now fills her place has supplied it to your satisfaction?''
41646I spoke to the man, and asked him from whence he brought it?
41646I was told you were alone: may I beg the favour of a few minutes conversation?''
41646If you do not marry this rich city- man, what do you think is to become of you?''
41646In this distress( the first she had ever known) how should she act?
41646Is he not a perfect character?''
41646Is he not at your Lordship''s house?''
41646Is it not enough that you have broken through the ties of honour and friendship in betraying me to my father?
41646Is it possible?''
41646Is my sister, Lady Westhaven, to be present at the ceremony?''
41646Is my sister, my poor Adelina dead?''
41646Is she not now at liberty?
41646Is she not worthy, from her personal merit, of a throne if I had a throne to offer her?
41646Is she then out of danger?
41646Is this the protection you have so often told me I should find from you?
41646Is this the respect you have sworn ever to observe towards me?
41646Lady Montreville observed him, and then said--''Surely, Frederic, you are not well?''
41646Lady Montreville, you hear what your son engages for; do you agree to the terms?"
41646Lady Westhaven, your''s are, I presume, from Berkley- square?''
41646Madam,''cried the woman,''what is the matter with the young gentleman?''
41646May I ask her name?''
41646May I ask, are you quite determined?''
41646May I dare enquire whether she is yet to be moved in my favour?''
41646Milor Mowbray?_''''_ Oui Milor-- regardez s''il vous plait.
41646Milor croit''il qu''on peut subsister dans cette espece d''enfer?
41646Miss Mowbray; such a lad as that is but an indifferent guardian; pray where does his father live?''
41646Mrs. Stafford gave him her hand, saying--''Have you then forgotten your friends?''
41646Mrs. Stafford gave it to her, saying--''From France, by the post mark?''
41646My dear brother, do you then pardon and pity the poor Adelina?''
41646My poor sister-- my unhappy, devoted Adelina!--have I then found you only to destroy you?
41646Nothing to your little_ protegà ©_?''
41646Of what else, indeed, could she speak, in a solitude where his goodness made all her consolation and his conversation all her pleasure?
41646Ought I then to repine?
41646Our little boy-- do you not long to embrace him?
41646Pray Sir, does Lady Montreville know of this marriage?''
41646Pray how d''ye like our new housekeeper?
41646Pray how does he do?''
41646Pray what amends can you ever hope to make to my Lord, and me, for the trouble you have been the cause of?''
41646Pray what was your master''s name?''
41646Prithee, dear boy, whither are you going?--perhaps we are travelling the same road?''
41646Shall I tell you what he has said to me?
41646Shall we go towards home?''
41646She answered his enquiries-- and then desired to hear what news Sir Richard or his other correspondents had sent him?
41646She asked herself, however, whether it was possible to be insensible of the merit of Godolphin?
41646She determined then to open the window and speak to him: yet if it should not be Fitz- Edward?
41646She observed it; and asked if they knew him?
41646She seemed happy to see them; and desiring her to sit down by the bed side, said--''Tell me truly what has happened?
41646She sighed deeply; and seeing the doctor still sitting by her, she asked if he would still perform his promise, and let her see her son?
41646She then enquired why he had concealed himself from his father, and where he had been?
41646She then returned to the parlour, and very reluctantly delivered the answer to Mr. Delamere; who asked if Emmeline was really ill?
41646Since you can form no decided objection; since you have undoubtedly allowed me to hope; why do you thus cruelly prolong my sufferings?
41646Sir,''cried he at length,''what would you have me do?''
41646Sir,''exclaimed Emmeline,''why will you thus persist in distressing me?
41646So here you are?
41646Somebody opened the door.--But there was no light; and Emmeline retiring a step from it, the person again asked who it was?
41646Stafford?''
41646Such complicated and incurable misery must overwhelm me, and then-- what will become of my children?''
41646Suddenly, however, awakening from his reverie, he said--''Does your Lordship think Miss Mowbray_ ought_ to go to meet Lord Delamere?''
41646Suppose we go together, if your destination is the Winchester road?''
41646Surely he could never assert that I have ever formed engagements with him?''
41646Surely it can not be Miss Mowbray, that allows me such happiness?''
41646Surely you do not, you can not mean finally to refuse and desert me, after having permitted me so long to speak to you of my passion?''
41646Tell me then, dearest and loveliest Emmeline, may I venture to hope that tender bosom is not wholly insensible?
41646Tell me, I conjure you tell me, what you have met with, and to what is owing the extraordinary appearance of Mr. Fitz- Edward here?''
41646Tell me, does this picture resemble him?''
41646Tell me, how is your sister Augusta?''
41646Tell me, how long in that month may Adelina direct to Miss Mowbray?''
41646Tell me, madam-- what do you wish Mr. Delamere to say?"
41646Tell me-- could you ever be reconciled to yourself if you should be the cause of a catastrophe equally fatal?''
41646The fiery Frenchman recovering his footing, turned fiercely to Delamere, and asked, in French, what he meant?
41646The man stopped, and asked if she wanted a coach?
41646Then addressing herself to her, she said--''Lady Adelina, are you better?''
41646This then is what I have to propose-- You are acquainted with Mr. Rochely, the great banker?''
41646To the question, from the maid,''how she did?''
41646To this he again repeated, that his opinions he would correct; his residence should be settled by herself.--''Had she any objection to his person?''
41646To whom can I then appeal?
41646Torn-- torn for ever from this outraged heart-- never, never shall this sight blast me again!--But what?''
41646Watkins?''
41646What am I to fear?
41646What am I to suppose?''
41646What can I do?''
41646What excess of madness and folly has tempted you to violate the retirement of Miss Mowbray?''
41646What has he been saying to you?''
41646What should Emmeline now do?
41646What you was coy?
41646What?
41646When did she go?
41646When they were alone, he conjured Mr. Lawson to tell him what he thought of the lady?
41646Where is Delamere?''
41646Where is Delamere?''
41646Where is he now?''
41646Wherefore traverse the garden of a night, and suffer appearances to be so much against you, and what is yet worse, against Lady Adelina?''
41646While he was indulging these sanguine and delicious hopes, he heard a bell ring, and flew to enquire if it was that of Emmeline?
41646Why do you think so?''
41646Why not stay at least to see the event?''
41646Why should I deceive you?
41646Why should the Chevalier de Bellozane stay here?''
41646Why should your Lordship now suppose me guilty of it?
41646Will my Emmeline, generous and gentle as she is to others, be inexorable only to him?
41646Will no penitence, no sufferings obtain your pity?''
41646Will you assure me you will not seek it?''
41646Will you dine with me?''
41646Will you hear me with patience, and even with pity?''
41646Will you refuse once more to bless and relieve, by your presence, my unhappy sister?''
41646William!--and are_ you_ grown cruel?
41646Would you please I should call him?''
41646Yet could she submit to the appearance of seeking a man who had so lately renounced her for ever, with coldness, contempt, and insult?
41646Yet if you suffer me to believe my attachment not disagreeable to you, how shall I wholly conceal it?
41646You are a clever fellow; can not you contrive for us a private meeting?]
41646You certainly would not wish to stay here?
41646You go then?''
41646You know, I suppose, how very ill she is; how much worse''tis feared she may be?''
41646You remember him, to be sure?''
41646You will not, then, leave me?--You will see my poor brother?''
41646You, on whom I depended for pity and protection?''
41646Your father''s memorandum says that he had forwarded a duplicate of it to Francis Williamson; do you know whether that person is yet living?''
41646[ Footnote 13: Why not stay there?]
41646[ Footnote 20: Your name?]
41646[ Footnote 6: How?
41646[ Footnote 8: Do you speak English, my friend?]
41646and have you no blood to answer for, on my account?
41646and having reason to believe you have yourself formed those that are very different?''
41646and is that all the praise you allow to such a man?
41646and must not your consent have been previously obtained before Lord Montreville would have made them?
41646and not yet enchained by that villainous fellow Hymen?
41646and said,''Would you have her sit down, Madam?''
41646and shall I suffer any other consideration to come in competition with your peace?''
41646and should you not with great reason suspect that with her, falsehood and deception might become habitual?''
41646and solicit a return of that regard with which I most sincerely wish he had forborne to honour me?''
41646and what is there so extraordinary in that?
41646and what would become of my dear little boy?''
41646answered he familiarly,''what are you the lady''s Cicisbeo?
41646answered he,''since you refuse to hear me?''
41646answered she--''Aye, I thought so-- What would you please to have, Mounseer?''
41646are you ill?--have I then terrified and alarmed you?
41646are you then well acquainted with the English?]
41646ask her whether she can condemn me to eternal regret and despair?''
41646asked Mrs. Stafford,''or are you disposed to hear more poetry?
41646by what right do you insult and detain me?''
41646can I not speak to you, but in the presence of a third person?''
41646can tranquil nature give_ me_ rest, Or scenes of beauty, soothe me to repose?
41646can you, Emmeline, persist in such cruelty?''
41646comment?_''answered his Lordship--''_comment?
41646comment?_''answered his Lordship--''_comment?
41646continued he, speaking with more quickness,''what?
41646continued he, with looks that encreased her confusion--''what obligation does not our little boy-- do we not all owe you?''
41646cried Delamere, unable to express his anxiety--''at Woodfield!--And what does he say of Woodfield?''
41646cried Godolphin, turning angrily towards him--''Do you come hither to tell me your crimes, or to triumph in their consequence?''
41646cried Lord Montreville, hastily interrupting him.--''Is Delamere married?''
41646cried he, hastily interrupting her--''Speak, Madam-- is it not so?''
41646cried he--''You allow me, then, to hope?''
41646cried she, disengaging herself from his support--''how came you here, and from whence?''
41646cried she, trying to rise,''what shall I say to Lady Westhaven?--How disclose to her such intelligence as this?''
41646did he leave me nothing-- not even his forgiveness?''
41646did he not plunge headlong into follies from which he resented even an effort to save him?
41646did he not wish to see his misjudging father?
41646did not he tell me, I know not what, of my Lord Westhaven?
41646eagerly answered Delamere,''you have been crying-- who was the person who called on you yesterday?''
41646exclaimed Emmeline; trembling,''am I to meet my uncle on Monday on this business?''
41646exclaimed Godolphin in a transport--''Is then the safety of Godolphin so dear to that angelic bosom?''
41646exclaimed Godolphin,''what can have made her talk in this manner?''
41646exclaimed Lady Westhaven,''what will become of him when he hears this?''
41646exclaimed he, breaking suddenly from his discourse and rising--''Good God, what can I do?''
41646exclaimed he--''Is it indeed Miss Mowbray?''
41646exclaimed his mother--''Why then do you not go to bed?''
41646exclaimed the officious landlady,''what can you mean now by that?
41646for of you I may ask and be forgiven-- has he seen his son?''
41646go for to refuse seeing such an handsome young man, who is a Lord, and the like of that?
41646has a father no right to decide to whom he will entrust the happiness of his son, and the honour of his posterity?
41646how appear as not_ daring_ to avow that, which is the glory and happiness of my life?
41646how are you?
41646impossible!--but is she really so very ill?''
41646it might have been worth preserving had I----But wherefore presume I to trouble you on a subject so hopeless?
41646loudly exclaimed Lady Westhaven, with a dreadful shriek--''Who shall dare to announce these tidings to you?''
41646must you still persecute me with your insidious friendship?''
41646my Lord?''
41646my dear madam,''said she, sobbing,''what will now become of me?
41646no!--Does not Lord Montreville depend upon my honour?--can I betray a trust reposed in me?''
41646no,''answered Rochely,''how came you to think she was?''
41646or carry her back by the same road, where it is probable he will meet me?
41646or how does it happen that you have left my brother and sister, and the happy Delamere?''
41646or what was the family and what the fortune of the person who now occupied most of his time and a great portion of his thoughts?
41646que voudriez vous avec vos pistolets?_''''Shoot_ you_ perhaps, you blockhead!''
41646repeated Emmeline--''has he a fever then?''
41646repeated Lady Adelina--''Does then any doubt remain of it?''
41646said Emmeline, with quickness;''for then,''continued she, hesitating and blushing,''what would poor Lady Adelina do?
41646said he, addressing himself to Mrs. Stafford,''rather than with his mother?''
41646sly little prude-- who would think that you, who always seem so cold and so cruel, made an excuse only to stay at home to meet Fitz- Edward?
41646tell me, if on that esteem I may presume to build those hopes which alone can give value to the rest of my life?''
41646tell me, then, where?--how?''
41646thought Emmeline,''what can have prevented his writing to me all this time?''
41646to be driven into the arms of Rochely?
41646unfeeling!--am I then_ so_ worthless,_ so_ detestable in your eyes?''
41646vehemently continued the Chevalier--''what then, charming Emmeline, occasions this long reserve, this barbarous coldness?
41646what am I to expect from a preface so cold and cruel?
41646what is bodily health when the mind is ill at ease?
41646what is it I am to know?''
41646what is it I hear?''
41646what is it you expect of me?''
41646what_ can_ be done?
41646when I see him, and when he tells me that you are well; and that affluence, and with it, I hope, happiness will be your''s?
41646when?--where?--how?''
41646where shall I find words to thank you as I ought?''
41646wherefore did you leave him?
41646wherefore is it then that you look thus?
41646wherefore should she refuse it?
41646who is this?''
41646why are there such unhappy impediments to your being really so?
41646why this haste?''
41646why would you come hither?
41646why would you do this, Sir?''
41646will you not there hear me?
41646will you still refuse to hear and to forgive me?
41646will_ you_, my lovely friend, undertake to plead for me?
41646would you strike him again?
45623''A what?"
45623''An estimate of the profits?"
45623''Are you a lunatic?"
45623''Are you an idiot?
45623''But how can they estimate the profits?"
45623''But what profits?
45623''But what will''Olotutu''be?"
45623''But who_ is_ going to manufacture''Olotutu''then?"
45623''Do you mean to say----?"
45623''Have what?"
45623''How?
45623''Oh, I see you will get the syndicate to do it?"
45623''Then you refuse half the profits?"
45623''What for?"
45623''And what would_ you_ do under this beautiful scheme?'' 45623 ''But look at the position you will be in?''
45623''Can you wonder, then, that I was born with a congenital craving for springing mysteries upon the public? 45623 ''Does it give his address?''
45623''Hang- ho: Out, Fu- sia, does your mother know you are? 45623 ''How dare you say that?''
45623''How do you mean?'' 45623 ''How?''
45623''Is n''t it wonderful the news should be in London before me?'' 45623 ''Is there need to prolong the story?
45623''Is this true?'' 45623 ''Oh, you would like me to, would you?''
45623''That you may flee the country?'' 45623 ''Were you waiting for me?''
45623''What for? 45623 ''What is it?
45623''What is the matter?'' 45623 ''What is this?''
45623''What would be the good of that? 45623 ''What''s that?''
45623''Where?'' 45623 ''Who is"dearest"?''
45623''You will submit to being taken by the police?'' 45623 A memorial brass then?"
45623A patent medicine, a tobacco, a soap, a mine, a comic paper, a beverage, a tooth- powder, a hair- restorer?
45623A what?
45623About my discovery in the algebra of love?
45623Ah, have you heard of that? 45623 Ah, then you''re not a novelist yourself?"
45623Ah, then, there is some regularity about the time of day at least?
45623Algebra of love?
45623An unhappy ending?
45623And do you agree with him?
45623And he has always this nervous air?
45623And how do you know this is false sentiment?
45623And if neither succeed?
45623And must I talk to them?
45623And must this be the end?
45623And so she wishes to be an object lesson in female celibacy, does she?
45623And so you did not dare marry the composer?
45623And still you do not intend to marry?
45623And then you will marry me?
45623And vat vould you haf done in--_was sagt man_--in my shoes?
45623And what became of Richard?
45623And what did he do when he learnt it?
45623And what have you heard of it?
45623And what was in the note?
45623And what will be the subscription?
45623And what would you like me to be?
45623And when is your lordship''s next book coming out?
45623And where is the Old Maids''Club?
45623And who elects her?
45623And who put you into that position, I should like to know?
45623And why not?
45623And why not?
45623And why?
45623And you have decided to enroll in our ranks?
45623And you have not been able to discover anything about him, though he has given it you in twelve?
45623And you really love me?
45623And you will give up your bad habits?
45623Another love- song to Chloe?
45623Any relation to the Mendozas of Highbury?
45623Are there any Old Maids here?
45623Are you a widow?
45623Are you an English Sephardi or a native Sephardi?
45623Are you sure_ you_ do?
45623Are you, then, a painter or a musician?
45623As a visitor? 45623 Ay, but what shall it be?"
45623Because you are not what I should like you to be?
45623But could you never learn to love me?
45623But do you propose to accept Wee Winnie?
45623But do you want to join us?
45623But how can you be a member of the Junior Widows''?
45623But how have you remembered him from year to year?
45623But how shall I know the result?
45623But how----?
45623But how?
45623But if you join us, had n''t you better go back to your maiden name?
45623But is n''t the outside in need of renovation?
45623But is n''t there any improvement that you would like?
45623But is n''t there-- I mean there is-- such a thing obtainable as a dumb wife?
45623But is there no hope for me?
45623But is there no way of getting a wife with a gift of categorical conversation?
45623But of course you_ have_ had your romance?
45623But suppose we both succeed?
45623But surely he wants the world to enjoy his work?
45623But surely_ you_ have nothing to complain of in the way of loveliness?
45623But what does that matter? 45623 But what is it you object to in me?"
45623But what right have we to take away their lives? 45623 But what, I wonder, has caused this tide of applications?"
45623But where are you going? 45623 But why should he exist at all?"
45623But why take the words in their natural meaning?
45623But would you have had me defy the probabilities?
45623But would you, if you could?
45623But you have n''t yet told me how it is done?
45623But you love me a little, too?
45623But you never lived in Tartary?
45623But you will never believe that again, when I tell you mine?
45623But you will not carry out your threat? 45623 But you would not love me more, if I were a great writer?"
45623But, sir, how can we inaugurate a Club which has never had any members?
45623By the way, you did not come across Mr. Fladpick in Tartary?
45623By what right, sir,said Mr. Wilkins, who had been struggling with an attack of speechlessness,"do you persecute me like this?
45623Can you doubt it?
45623Can you give me a copy of the song?
45623D- do you m- m- ean,asked Lord Arthur,"''how happy could I be with either, were t''other dear charmer away?''"
45623Dead?
45623Dearest?
45623Diana?
45623Did I hear aright?
45623Did n''t they withdraw their custom from you instanter?
45623Did n''t we lift you up into it on the point of our pens?
45623Did you catch any Tartars?
45623Did you ever really love that actress?
45623Did you like the play?
45623Did you see her? 45623 Do n''t you remember Wilkins, the_ Moon_-man that I was up in a balloon with?
45623Do n''t you see I''m busy?
45623Do you call that charity?
45623Do you dare to say that you saw my poor father, who was righteousness itself, breaking his fast in a restaurant on the Day of Atonement? 45623 Do you mean here-- this afternoon?"
45623Do you mean to say,he said at last,"that because you love a man, he ca n''t love you?"
45623Do you not feel the perfect pathos of those two lines, the infiniteness of incisive significance? 45623 Do you not see it is impossible?
45623Do you see anything strange in my appearance?
45623Do you see anything, Princess?
45623Do you see anything, Princess?
45623Do you suppose the syndicate will have any capital? 45623 Do you think so?
45623Do you too hold that false theory that womanliness consists in childishness?
45623Does he always come on the same date?
45623Does he always slink out if anybody sits down opposite to him?
45623Does n''t it want anything done to it?
45623Eh? 45623 Figure you to yourself that I speak at the foot of the letter?
45623Flirt?
45623Frank, is this true?
45623Good gracious, father, have n''t you gone?
45623Has he been dead long?
45623Have I the pleasure of speaking to Miss Dulcimer?
45623Have I the pleasure of speaking to Miss Dulcimer?
45623Have they given good reasons for their refusal to marry their lovers?
45623Have you it with you?
45623Have you never been to a circus? 45623 Have you no faith and trust in me?"
45623Have you nothing better than this to say to me, after I have shown you my inmost soul?
45623Have you read Mr. Gladstone''s latest?
45623Have you seen it, Lord Silverdale?
45623How about a reredos?
45623How are you, everybody? 45623 How can anybody write as well as yourself?
45623How can you talk so irreligiously? 45623 How could I?
45623How did you know that?
45623How do you climb?
45623How do you expect me to amuse myself in the library?
45623How do you expect me to bother about details? 45623 How do you know?"
45623How do you mean?
45623How long ago was it?
45623How many will you be?
45623How should I know it?
45623How so?
45623How so?
45623How so?
45623How then?
45623How? 45623 How_ do_ you get it?"
45623I-- I am-- I-- that is to say, Fladpick-- oh how can I explain what I mean?
45623I-- I----?
45623If I told you, you would try to become it?
45623If you have n''t read it, why should you abuse it?
45623If you know, why should I tell you?
45623In a restaurant?
45623In bad taste, is it?
45623Indeed? 45623 Indeed?
45623Indeed?
45623Is he as careful to conceal his body as his soul?
45623Is he gone already?
45623Is it not obvious?
45623Is it not?
45623Is it to join the Old Maids''Club that you have called?
45623Is it true that your lordship has been converted to Catholicism?
45623Is it worth while saying such commonplace things?
45623Is it yours?
45623Is n''t it rather_ vice versâ_? 45623 Is not that a place in nature to be vain of?
45623Is she also beautiful?
45623Is she really beautiful, et cetera?
45623Is she? 45623 Is that a joke?
45623Is there any way of finding out?
45623Is there no way over the difficulty?
45623Is there none on the church?
45623Is this the time-- when I am busy feeling the pulse of the Bazaar?
45623Is this the way all match- games are played?
45623Is this woman going to be a success?
45623It''s a lot of sentimental rot, is n''t it? 45623 Knocked you, old man, this time, eh?"
45623Libel the dead? 45623 Lillie, what''s this I see in the_ Moon_ about Clorinda Bell joining your Club?"
45623Mad-- when you love me?
45623Madly in love with you?
45623May I ask if that is to be the uniform of the Old Maids''Club?
45623May I come in?
45623May I send you in a hundred- weight of chocolate creams?
45623Miscalculated them?
45623Miss Sybil Hotspur?
45623Miss Winifred Woodpecker?
45623My dear Fanny, what in Heaven''s name is it?
45623My father did n''t tell you?
45623N- n- no, y- y- y- y----"What is it, Captain Athelstan?
45623No, why John P. Smith? 45623 No,"he said;"has Mr. Gladstone ever a latest?"
45623No-- what did you-- I mean you did think what?
45623No? 45623 Not of any kind?"
45623Oh, Frank, this is no cruel jest?
45623Oh, by the way, have you seen anything of that-- that-- the man in the Ironed Mask, I think they call him?
45623Oh, is there a leader?
45623Oh, then you are of the school of Addiper?
45623Oh, where did you spring from?
45623Oh,_ warum_ was n''t the Club founded before I married?
45623Once a year?
45623Original composer?
45623P- p- p- rincess what?
45623Pretty well, thank you; how''s yourself?
45623Rather taking an unfair rise out of your partner, is n''t it?
45623Shall I have time? 45623 Shall I show him in?"
45623Shall you be present at the trials?
45623So_ this_ is your mother?
45623Tell me what?
45623That is all a heap of galimatias,replied the Parisienne with the flaming hair"If I kiss a man, I, surely he may call me Alice without demanding it?
45623The English Shakespeare? 45623 The English Shakespeare?"
45623The Princess''s compliments,he was told to say,"and how is it to- day?"
45623The Sunday School Fund-- how is that?
45623The rules will not allow it, will they, Miss Dulcimer? 45623 The song or the singing?"
45623Then I did not hear aright before?
45623Then how does your lordship account for the rumor?
45623Then to- day is the first time he has behaved so strangely?
45623Then what''s to be done?
45623Then why do you neglect him?
45623Then why do you say it?
45623Then why does he object to me, when he does n''t object to anybody else?
45623Then why give her two by contradicting it?
45623Then why object to servants?
45623Then you_ will_ marry him?
45623Thinking of the little fishes-- or of the gods?
45623This is not one of the cliques of the shrieking sisterhood?
45623This is not one of your teasing jokes?
45623This year?
45623Too sweet for you?
45623Was Ellaline the girl who has just gone?
45623Well, Lillie,he said,"when are you going to give the_ soirée_ to celebrate the foundation of the Club?
45623Well, but,put in Harry Robinson,"if none of us is to be the English Shakespeare, why should we give over the appointment to an outsider?
45623Well, have you seen this Fanny Radowski?
45623Well, what in the name of angels or devils is your objection then?
45623Well, what is it you do n''t like? 45623 Well,"I said, unimpressed and uncomprehending,"and what of it?"
45623Well? 45623 Well?"
45623Were you ever really simple enough to suspect me of having a mother?
45623What about that actress you are painting now?
45623What are you telling me there?
45623What book is that you are reading?
45623What can I do for you?
45623What do I think?
45623What do you say, Lord Silverdale?
45623What do you suggest then?
45623What do you think of my stepmother?
45623What do you want?
45623What do_ you_ think? 45623 What does it matter now, dearest?"
45623What does it matter?
45623What have I to do with science? 45623 What have you been doing to yourself, Princess?"
45623What is fame, reputation, weighed against love? 45623 What is it, dearest?"
45623What is its name?
45623What is that?
45623What is that?
45623What is the matter with the bells?
45623What is the matter?
45623What is the matter?
45623What is the use of my trying the candidates if you''re going to admit the plucked?
45623What is this woman''s name?
45623What is your lordship''s opinion of the best fifty books for the working man''s library?
45623What name?
45623What of it?
45623What question?
45623What reply would you make to that, Miss Nimrod?
45623What runs in the family?
45623What''s my being married got to do with it?
45623What''s that-- the belief of old maids that they''ll get married?
45623What''s that? 45623 What''s that?
45623What''s the matter?
45623What''s the matter?
45623What''s the piece like?
45623What''s the time- limit?
45623What''s this?
45623What-- smoking?
45623What_ are_ you talking about? 45623 When are you going to lend me your face?"
45623When do you propose to be proposed to by him?
45623When you have n''t read it?
45623Where are we to get the capital from?
45623Where is the Shakespearean quality?
45623Where''s the harm?
45623Where?
45623Who is he?
45623Why can you not explain what you mean?
45623Why do I want to join you?
45623Why do you call me Rainbow?
45623Why have sunstroke in India?
45623Why not a competition?
45623Why not? 45623 Why not?
45623Why not? 45623 Why not?"
45623Why not?
45623Why not?
45623Why should I embrace a profession to which I feel no call? 45623 Why should you be afraid?"
45623Why so? 45623 Why, are you a member of that?
45623Why, are you allowed to have men?
45623Why, did the hieroglyphists use to brag?
45623Why, do you believe in a future state?
45623Why, has he done anything strange before to- day?
45623Why, have you any difficulty about getting enough? 45623 Why, is this the candidate you were telling me about?"
45623Why, what is this, father?
45623Why? 45623 Why?
45623Why?
45623Why?
45623Why?
45623Why?
45623Why?
45623Why?
45623Why?
45623Wilkins? 45623 Will all your Old Maids be young?"
45623Will it be poetry or prose?
45623Will you back your incredulity with a pair of gloves?
45623With whom?
45623Wo n''t you come and talk it over, whatever it is, another time?
45623Would n''t you like a colored window to somebody?
45623Would you have love a Burlesque? 45623 Yes or no?"
45623Yes, but what am_ I_ to call you, dearest?
45623Yes, but why does n''t he speak?
45623Yes, have you read it?
45623Yes, miss; who shall I say, miss?
45623Yes, wo n''t it be awful fun?
45623Yes, wo n''t it be fun to run her to earth?
45623Yes-- do you think the Old Maids''is the only one in London? 45623 You are Fladpick?"
45623You are not yourself married?
45623You do n''t?
45623You envy them?
45623You got my letter, I suppose?
45623You got my verses this morning, Rainbow mine?
45623You know not his name even?
45623You know one romance per head is our charge for admission?
45623You mean the great dramatic critic''s? 45623 You suspect her, then, of being herself responsible for the statement that she was going to join the Club?"
45623You thought what?
45623You threaten?
45623You want us to commit suicide together?
45623You what?
45623You will have a little refreshment before you go?
45623You?
45623_ He!_ What?
45623_ Mine?_}"Dead heat,"I murmured, and fell back in a dead faint.
45623_ Which?_"_ Leave you to guess_,answered the electric current.
45623_ Wife?_} the two travellers exclaimed together.
45623_ You_ are not a literary man?
45623''Ah, but where should I find a man of like mind, a man to whom leisure for the cultivation of his soul was the one great necessity of life?''
45623''Am I really the only woman you ever loved?''
45623''But how am I to take it?''
45623''Can not you see that, as my future wife, you will also suffer?''
45623''Goodness gracious, Silverplume,''I said,''is this the way you poets go on?''"
45623''How can you say that?
45623''How should you?
45623''W-- w-- here did you get that from?''
45623''What can you do?''
45623''What for?''
45623''What is this?''
45623''Why not rather keep a mistress?
45623''Why?''
45623''Why_ must_ you keep a servant?''
45623''Wo n''t you say"yes"and make me the happiest man alive?
45623*****"Have you seen Patrick Boyle''s poem in the_ Playgoers''Review_?"
45623A Cassandra at sea- trip and_ soirée_, Or Proserpina visiting earth?
45623A good mortgage, perhaps?"
45623After so decisive an avowal from the essence of candor, what remained to be said?
45623Ah, what Harpy pursued her as quarry To strangle so mirth?
45623Ah, why I call you"Rainbow,"sweet?
45623Aloud she said:"Under the circumstances may I venture to ask you to see my mother at the house?
45623Am I to risk ruining three- fourths of my life, in defiance of the unerring dogmas of the Doctrine of Chances?
45623And am I to give up all this, merely because I love you?"
45623And are you sure it is admiration?"
45623And art thou-- here''s my last, if not my stiffest-- As good a bouncer as the hieroglyphist?
45623And do n''t you see that, as I love him, the odds are that he does n''t love me?"
45623And how about grub?"
45623And now may I see your mother?
45623And several people had known it all along, for what but fraternal interest had taken him so often to the_ Lymarket_?
45623And so I sadly turn away: How_ can_ I love a clod of clay, Doomed to grow earthlier day by day?
45623And so, Miss Woodpecker, you have thought about joining our institution for elevating female celibacy into a fine art?"
45623And their owner, was she A Swinburnian Lady Dolores, Or a sprite from some shadowy sea?
45623And was I to depart like the rest, doomed to cudgel my brains till they ached like caned schoolboys?
45623And yet what are you but another Helmer?
45623And yet what can be more evident than that the art of criticism was never in such a critical condition?
45623And yet, was this to be the end of all that sweet idyllic interlude, a jarring note and then silence for evermore?
45623And yet-- what was the meaning of that significant invitation:"_ We are waiting only for you?_""I thought you were a stranger,"he replied.
45623And you still wish to cry off?"
45623Anyhow I resolved to know what_ I_ had been summoned for?
45623Are n''t there plenty of candidates without them?
45623Are old maids a sacred subject?"
45623Are the members of the Savage Club savages, of the Garrick Garricks, of the Supper Club suppers?"
45623Are there any more candidates to- day?"
45623Are they on view?"
45623Are you going to poke and pry into the concerns of the very journalist?
45623Are you sure it is love you feel, not admiration?"
45623But about this appointment?"
45623But are you sure you are willing to renounce all mankind because you find one man unsatisfactory?"
45623But did anyone grumble?
45623But do you really think you would be happy if you lost her?"
45623But may I ask, Miss Nimrod, why you did not enrich the book with more sketches?
45623But then according to the story she does n''t know he''s a Catholic?"
45623But then would n''t it be the truth?"
45623But was it too late?
45623But were we created merely to gratify man''s vanity?"
45623But what are these weighed against the cramping of her individuality?
45623But what had I come to do in that galley?
45623But what of Paul Horace?''"
45623But what then?"
45623But whom can we discover?"
45623But why are you so concerned about my church?"
45623But why not have told_ me_ that you were Fladpick?"
45623CRITICUS IN STABULIS(?).
45623Can you still disbelieve that I suffer from an hereditary tendency to advertise in the agony column?
45623Come now, would you give up your genius, your reputation, just to marry me?"
45623Could n''t you call again to- morrow?"
45623Could n''t you lean against something else?"
45623Damn it all, sir, is there to be nothing private?
45623Dead?
45623Did I, though you had just called me a modern Buddhist with the soul of an ancient Greek and the radiant fragrance of a Cingalese tea- planter?
45623Did Robinson, though the edition was sold out the day after?
45623Did n''t I tell you I had the story from her own mouth, though I have put it into Mendoza''s?"
45623Did she not love John Beveridge?
45623Did the stern Priesthood strive thy cult to smother, Or wast thou worshipped, like thy purring brother?
45623Do many people give charity except to advertise themselves?
45623Do n''t you know that a combination of maid and mother is the newest thing in actresses''wardrobes?
45623Do n''t you see that there is a fortune in''Olotutu''?"
45623Do n''t you think it would be unfair to him to take my vows without giving him a chance?"
45623Do n''t you understand that Miss Bell was good enough to engage me as mother and travelling companion when you left me to starve?
45623Do n''t you understand that your charm to me is your being just yourself-- your simple, honest, manly self?
45623Do n''t you understand?
45623Do we ever complain when you call us cataclysmic, creative, esemplastic, or even epicene?
45623Do you expect him?"
45623Do you know me so little as to consider me capable of flippancy?
45623Do you know of any?
45623Do you know that you could be prosecuted?''
45623Do you like it?"
45623Do you mean to say there''s any bad taste about that?"
45623Do you think I could peep at him from the wing?"
45623Do you think I would hoax you thus-- to dash you to earth again?"
45623Do you think there is still a danger of her marrying to get someone to advertise her?"
45623Does n''t he ride or dance well?"
45623Does she hope to achieve recognition by it, I wonder?"
45623Does she long to be of service in the world?"
45623Doth he frisk in glee In Aahlu, or lives he, transmigrated, The lower life Osiris did decree, Of fowl, or fly, or fish, or fox, or flea?
45623Equally aghast and excited, Lillie wired back,"_ How?_"and prepaid the reply.
45623Every now and again she asked,"Do you see anything, Princess?"
45623For what but to forget the wiles and treacheries of women of the town had he buried himself here?
45623Good looks?
45623Great heavens, can it be?"
45623Had I not still to discover for what end we were leagued together?
45623Have you anything worthy of you in your pocket to- day?"
45623Have you had a desirable proposal of marriage?"
45623Have you heard anything to her disadvantage?"
45623He comes not always on the same date of the month, but he comes, perhaps, on the same day of the week, eh?"
45623He says:''Miss Leroux-- Alice; may I call you Alice?''"
45623Her father?
45623Ho, some brandy-- is it handy?
45623How can I, the President of the Old Maid''s Club, be the first recreant?"
45623How can we face Wee Winnie?"
45623How can you say so?
45623How could I now explain that it was her father who was the renegade, not I?
45623How did even these know that what they saw_ was_ the Emperor?
45623How does it run?
45623How few persons actually saw the Emperor?
45623How is it Boyle managed to crack up our plays without being driven to any of this new- fangled nonsense?"
45623How is the old gentleman?
45623How many girls do you suppose Silverdale has met in his varied career?"
45623How stands the account with the new young womanhood?
45623How was he to explain to this fair young thing that she loved nobody and could never hope to marry him?
45623How?"
45623How?"
45623However, if Miss Woodpecker feels these fine ethical shades, wo n''t she be ineligible?"
45623I asked Guy if he would have a chop with me at the club this evening, and what do you think?
45623I become your sister by rejecting you, do I not?"
45623I beg your pardon?"
45623I forgot the sardines must be caught first, before they are tinned, must n''t they?"
45623I had sundry valuables about my person, but then they included a loaded revolver, so why refuse the adventure?
45623I presume you know all about Miss Dulcimer''s scheme?"
45623I say, how will you get them to wear stuff gowns?"
45623I went to him and I said:"How is the church?"
45623I wonder,"he added irrelevantly,"why the number nine always goes with cats-- nine lives, nine tails, nine muses?"
45623I wondered whether perhaps he could be teething-- or should I say, tusking?
45623If this is so before marriage, what will it be after, when her opportunities of buttonholing me will be necessarily more frequent?"
45623Is he too modest, too timid?"
45623Is n''t he here?"
45623Is n''t it awful?
45623Is n''t it better to take the bull by the horns?"
45623Is n''t one of the rules that candidates shall not believe in Women''s Rights?
45623Is n''t that a lovely face?"
45623Is that easier?"
45623Is that the logic?
45623Is that the_ Saturday Slasher_ you have there?''
45623Is there any entrance fee?"
45623Is there anything in that passage in the least calculated to bring a blush to the cheek of the young person?"
45623It makes me miserable, but what can I do?
45623It was lucky he was not in a bank; for he had only a moderate income, and who knows to what he might have been driven?
45623It would require a genius to really prove such a connection, and as he would, on his own theory, be a lunatic, what becomes of his theory?"
45623It''s by that new woman who came out last year and calls herself Andrew Dibdin, is n''t it?"
45623Know you not the idioms of your own barbarian tongue?
45623Leave me, I pray you; or, must I ring the bell?"
45623Let me see, was it Campbell or Belfort who shot himself?
45623May I ask what are the peculiar experiences you speak of?"
45623May I ask what it is?''
45623May I trust it is now re- established, and that"Olotutu"has washed away the apparent stain on my character?
45623May I wait to see Clorinda?"
45623Meantime as it is getting very late, and as I have finished my lemonade, I will bid you good afternoon-- have you used''Olotutu?''"
45623Might I have another egg?''
45623Mine is the Lady Travellers''--do you know it, Miss Dulcimer?"
45623Moreover, was he not responsible for Fladpick''s being, and thus for all the evil done by his Frankenstein?
45623Must they not be true of herself?
45623Need we feel a less genuine passion Because we{ shall} live in May- fair?
45623Oh, when are they going to make that tunnel?"
45623On page 112, a quotation mark was removed after"then silence any more?".
45623On page 23, a double quotation mark was added after"What do men think?"
45623On third thoughts I went on in my best English,"May I in return be favored with the pleasure of knowing your name?"
45623Once we begin to break the law where are we to stop?
45623Or shall we say the 11- 15 from Paddington, Popsy?''
45623Or was it some deeper impulse?
45623Or why not get a music- master or a professor of painting?"
45623Or would you like some lemonade?"
45623Or, fallen deeper, is he politician, Stumping the land, his country''s quack physician?
45623Original, is n''t it, to have your hero hungry in the first chapter?
45623Ought I to entertain that?"
45623Out of a sack containing three thousand coins, what are the odds that a man will draw the one marked coin?"
45623Presently she murmured:"But think what you are asking me to do?
45623Say, when thy popularity shall fade?
45623Shall I tell it you?"
45623Shall I write you a recommendation?"
45623Shall we say 11.15 from Paddington since the sea will not give up its dead?
45623She rolled up the MS."But,"said Lillie excitedly, breaking in for the first time,"what is the way you want them to come?"
45623Should I tell him my real name?
45623Smythe?"
45623So I shall not need to try Miss Radowski?"
45623So why should I suffer for the sins of my predecessors?
45623Still can it ever be a serious success?
45623Suppose I had never been born?"
45623The first words of love comes from his mouth-- and what think you that he say?
45623The retiring candidate does not state_ what_ Providence has granted, does she?"
45623The twenty- fourth of October, did you say?"
45623Then there is no chance at all for me on your paper?''
45623Then you will come to- morrow and tell me your final decision?"
45623To pepper them with pellets of platitude?"
45623To which, Lillie,"Why do you say such obvious things?
45623True, it was a heavy burden to sustain, but what will a man not dare or suffer for the woman he loves?
45623Truly, was there ever an age which had so much light and so little sweetness?
45623Under such circumstances is not marriage a contract entered into under false pretences?
45623Unless he is in need of money, why should he concern himself with the outside universe?
45623Vain, vain the hope from Fate to flee, What special Providence for me?
45623Vill you, in return, take_ mein frau_ into de Old Maids''Club?"
45623Was I not saved by one?
45623Was he to let the woman he loved fret herself to death for a shadow?
45623Was it not imprudent for him to alienate the leading critic by marrying her?
45623Was it that Ellaline was all these things incarnate?
45623Was it that I resembled someone this man knew?
45623Was n''t it invented in the States?
45623Was she the unwilling accomplice of their discreditable designs?
45623Was this to be the end of all my beautiful visions?
45623Watchman, what of the night?
45623Well, what will you wager?"
45623Were it not better to possess my soul in peace and to cultivate it nobly and wisely and become a shining light of the higher spinsterhood?"
45623Were n''t you in the accident?''
45623Were they human at all, these dusk glories Of eyes?
45623What are you saying?"
45623What are you talking about?"
45623What certainty was there my singer was a hunchback?
45623What do you conclude?"
45623What else have you written?"
45623What had they been doing to bring suffering to this fair girl, before whom all bowed in mock homage?
45623What had they been plotting?
45623What hands, now tinct with substances balsamic, Have set thee leaping like the sportive kids, What time the passers- by did close their lids?
45623What in the name of all the saints could he possibly want with me?
45623What is a social lion?
45623What is a successful reception?
45623What is it for which people barter health, happiness, even honor?
45623What is it to be on the World''s lips, if the lips we love are to be taken away?"
45623What is social ambition?
45623What is the glory of doing compared with the glory of being?
45623What is this terrible mystery?
45623What makes you ask?"
45623What next, sir?
45623What other attraction have I?
45623What part had I been playing in these uncanny transactions?
45623What pleasure is there in such a conquest?
45623What was the use of marrying a milksop like that?
45623What?
45623What_ do_ men think?"
45623When are you going to let me have_ your_ face to paint?"
45623When he comes home and finds Little Dolly is an old maid, wo n''t he be sorry, poor Philip?
45623When is the wedding to be?"
45623When you come to analyze it, what more does the greatest author do?
45623Where do you hope to find this man?"
45623Where from?"
45623Where is the Shakespearean quality of this, which is, you say, the whole of Act Thirteen?
45623Where is the youth by whom thou wast created And tipped profusely?
45623Where would be the fun of a union without mutual recriminations and sweet reconciliations?
45623Where?"
45623Which are they?"
45623Which of the jaws would touch me first?
45623Who are these people?"
45623Who but herself knew that she was not?"
45623Why are you so pale and agitated?
45623Why can you no longer think of me?"
45623Why does your lordship ask?"
45623Why indeed?
45623Why should I allow myself to be viewed in the refracting medium of alien ink?
45623Why should I expect immunity from the general fate?
45623Why should I marry to gratify a man''s vanity, his cravings after cheap quixotism?"
45623Why should he not become"the English Shakespeare?"
45623Why should he show the cloven hoof just to- day?
45623Why should weddings have a monopoly of presents?
45623Why simply if she acquired an enamelled complexion, it might be the salvation of her, do n''t you see?
45623Why, a question lies at the very threshold of marriage--''Wilt thou have this woman to be thy wedded wife?''
45623Will you be mine?"
45623Will you promise to read the book if I lend it you?"
45623Will you tell me, Miss Jack, what marriage has to offer to a woman like me?"
45623Will you, or will you not, become Honorary Trier of the Old Maids''Club?"
45623With young and beautiful girls?"
45623Wo n''t you come to tea to- morrow?"
45623Wo n''t you have a chocolate cream before you commence?"
45623Wo n''t you sit down?"
45623Would you be so good as to epitomize your scheme in twenty words?
45623Would you sacrifice these things to your love for me?"
45623Wretched woman, what have you done?''
45623Yes, why not?
45623You agree with me?"
45623You are there-- and there you_ are_, do n''t you know?
45623You remember that book you liked so much--_The Cherub That Sits Up Aloft_?"
45623You smile in your superior way, A Rainbow has no feet, you say?
45623You will believe that, dearest?"
45623You would n''t like her to be indifferent to what you were doing, saying, feeling?"
45623You''re selling''Olotutu''to me, are n''t you?
45623You, a plunderer of the dead, a harpy, a ghoul, ask what for?''
45623[ Illustration:"_ Is that the uniform of the Old Maids''Club?_"]"Is it to me you are referring as an unconventional female?"
45623[ Illustration:"_ Is that the uniform of the Old Maids''Club?_"]"Is it to me you are referring as an unconventional female?"
45623[ Illustration:"_ Knocked you, old man, this time, eh?_"]"Yes, all to pieces!"
45623[ Illustration:_ Driven to Drink._]"And have you then finally decided to abandon Platonics?"
45623[ Illustration:_ He was willing to become a Mormon._]"And what was your reply?"
45623[ Illustration:_ I encircle him with my arms and speak with my lips._]"I love you?"
45623[ Illustration:_ I pulled the paper from the dead hand._]"Died?"
45623[ Illustration:_ The Old Maid arrives._]"Then he said in low tones:''Maggie, can I never become anything to you but a stranger?''
45623[ Illustration:_ The office boy edits the paper._]"Why?
45623_ De mortuis nil nisi bonum._ Why reveal his breach of etiquette to the world?
45623_ No!_ Will it be believed that( such is the heart of woman) I felt a sensation of relief on finding the issue still postponed?
45623_ You_ reading_ Threepenny Bits_?"
45623cried Lord Silverdale,"do you mean to say this is why you were so cold to me all those long weary months?"
45623here it is--"The pocket- book contained letters addressed to Josiah Twaddon, Esquire, and----"''"''Twaddon, did you say?''
45623shrieked the_ Moon_-man, as the balloon began to free itself on its upward flight,"How far off is it?"
45623to your baseness?
45623what do you suppose they''re chartered for?
45623who told you she was going to join?"
45623why not?
45623why should he not sacrifice himself to save this delicate creature from a premature tomb?
45623you will nevermore eat fish?"
4313''A hymn?''
4313''A month?
4313''A partner in your activity?''
4313''A private gentleman?''
4313''A walk?
4313''After all this, what have you to say to me, Rhoda?''
4313''After all, that is_ not_ your ideal?''
4313''After all, what ambition should he have?''
4313''After all, you doubt of your love for me?''
4313''Ah, that kind of person, is she?''
4313''Ah, you went to Seascale, did you?''
4313''Alice?
4313''Alice?
4313''Am I anything like this to_ you_?
4313''Am I never to advise?''
4313''Am I right or not?
4313''And all''s well?''
4313''And do you dread the voyage back?''
4313''And do you feel better?''
4313''And do you suppose,''asked Everard, with a smile of indulgence,''that I could marry on four hundred and fifty a year?''
4313''And how is it likely to turn out?''
4313''And how long have you been in London?''
4313''And if you are sent for shall you go?''
4313''And in London you will be alone too?''
4313''And is it my business to discover that explanation?''
4313''And it did n''t occur to you that it would be a kindness, not inconsistent with your dignity, to make me in some way acquainted with this fact?''
4313''And now you will make up to me for it, Monica?''
4313''And that was the immediate cause of his father''s leaving him poorly provided for?''
4313''And we stand as when we quitted each other that night-- do we?''
4313''And what can the old bear do to show that he''s sorry?''
4313''And what did happen?
4313''And what did you tell her about me?''
4313''And what did_ he_ say, when you''d said that?''
4313''And what is the appointment you have got?''
4313''And what is your latest paradox, Miss Nunn?''
4313''And what''--she laughed a little--''are the sure signs of worthiness?
4313''And what,''was her question at length,''would you be thinking of paying?''
4313''And what_ has_ been the result?''
4313''And where is your sister?''
4313''And will you tell me where you are going to live?''
4313''And you can still behave to me with indignation?
4313''And you did really speak about me?
4313''And you resolutely class yourself with them?''
4313''And you seriously think, Miss Nunn, that by persuading as many women as possible to abstain from marriage you will improve the character of men?''
4313''And you will let me see you again before long?
4313''And you wo n''t talk about being kept a prisoner?''
4313''And you would ask me to wait on and on for one of these wonderful chances?''
4313''And_ still_ you believe her innocent?''
4313''Another cup of tea, Everard?''
4313''Any difficulty of that point?''
4313''Are we friends?''
4313''Are we to part to- day, and never again see each other?''
4313''Are we travelling the same way?''
4313''Are you afraid I shall be robbed or murdered?''
4313''Are you at leisure, Mrs. Conisbee?
4313''Are you quite sure about the distances?''
4313''Are you really so ill- tempered?''
4313''Are you so very tired?
4313''Are you sure she prefers it?''
4313''Are you telling me the truth?''
4313''At your age?''
4313''Away?''
4313''Axbridge?
4313''Back already?''
4313''Because you are too proud, or because the mystery is still a mystery?''
4313''Before or after that news came?''
4313''Bevis?
4313''But do n''t you employ yourself in any way?''
4313''But how long does it take?''
4313''But how?''
4313''But suppose marriage in no way interfered with your work?''
4313''But surely you find no pleasure in that kind of thing, Miss Nunn?''
4313''But surely you grant the force of what I say?''
4313''But surely, Miss Nunn,''cried the widow, turning to Rhoda,''we work for the abolition of all unjust privilege?
4313''But was there anything gross in the proceeding?''
4313''But what are our arrangements?
4313''But what did he say about_ me_, dear?''
4313''But what do you understand by enjoyment?''
4313''But what have I done that you should love me less, dearest?''
4313''But what_ have_ you told me?
4313''But who is she?''
4313''But why not send a message, and ask her to come here?''
4313''But why will she offer no explanation?''
4313''But why?''
4313''But you ca n''t honestly praise it?''
4313''But you do n''t care for the thought?''
4313''But you of course select the girls whom you instruct or employ?''
4313''But you would not make it a mere deception?''
4313''But, after all,_ is_ Mary wrong?
4313''But, putting love aside,''went on the other, very gravely,''what do you really know of Mr. Widdowson?
4313''But,''he urged,''if we became acquaintances in the ordinary way, and knew each other''s friends, would n''t that be most satisfactory to you?''
4313''But,''urged his wife,''do you mean to break with her altogether?
4313''But-- didn''t it bring you friends as well as comfort?''
4313''But-- do we speak the same language?''
4313''But-- you do n''t think she could deceive him?''
4313''But--''the girl hesitated--''don''t you approve of any one marrying?''
4313''By the Orient Express?''
4313''By the inquest?''
4313''By- the- bye, under the head of detestable habit you would put love of children?''
4313''Can I speak to you, please, miss?''
4313''Can it be mine?''
4313''Can it be--?
4313''Can you gratify my not unnatural curiosity?''
4313''Can you honestly repeat to me what Barfoot was saying to- day, when you were on the seat together?''
4313''Can you love me in return?''
4313''Can you wait and take me with you?''
4313''Come and see me, will you?''
4313''Come on Sunday, will you?
4313''Convince you?
4313''Could n''t you have found some other example?''
4313''Dare I?
4313''Dare you-- dare you do that?''
4313''Despise you?''
4313''Did he offer to go away?''
4313''Did n''t I always use to be alone?''
4313''Did n''t he behave gruffly last night to his little girl?''
4313''Did n''t you know that?''
4313''Did she give you any reason for the separation from her husband?''
4313''Did the fog keep our guest away?''
4313''Did you believe him when he denied--''''But what does it matter whether I believed him or not?''
4313''Did you ever read any of Ouida''s novels?''
4313''Did you know me before I happened to look round?''
4313''Did you know that poor girl?''
4313''Did you quarrel much?''
4313''Did you see the light of sunset on the mountains?''
4313''Did you?
4313''Did you?''
4313''Dislike?
4313''Do I?''
4313''Do allow me to go a short way with you?''
4313''Do come next Saturday-- could you?''
4313''Do n''t you blame the institution of marriage with what is chargeable to human fate?
4313''Do n''t you like the scent of burning peat from that cottage?''
4313''Do n''t you think it best that we should take some step before our happiness is irretrievably ruined?''
4313''Do n''t you think we might go out for half an hour?''
4313''Do you feel any impulse to try for it?''
4313''Do you know anything about Arromanches?
4313''Do you know my son, Mrs. Widdowson?
4313''Do you like Miss Nunn?''
4313''Do you like this neighbourhood, Miss Madden?''
4313''Do you live in Guernsey?''
4313''Do you love me any the less, Everard?''
4313''Do you love me?
4313''Do you mean,''she said,''that Miss Nunn seems to disguise her feelings?''
4313''Do you need a life of excitement?''
4313''Do you play?''
4313''Do you pretend you are innocent of any crime against me?''
4313''Do you remember my saying in the letter how I hungered to taste your lips?
4313''Do you seriously think of leaving the shop?''
4313''Do you smoke here-- in this room?''
4313''Do you think I can leave you?''
4313''Do you think he will really cane his sister- in- law?''
4313''Do you think she has any acquaintance that he dislikes?''
4313''Do you think she smoked?''
4313''Do you think so?''
4313''Do you think you can?
4313''Do you think,''asked the visitor,''that she regrets the step I persuaded her to take?''
4313''Do you, by chance, know the Hodgson Bulls?''
4313''Do you?
4313''Do you?''
4313''Do you_ wish_ me to leave you?''
4313''Does Mrs. Widdowson come to see you?''
4313''Does he aim at nothing whatever?''
4313''Does he complain about his wife?''
4313''Does he?
4313''Does n''t it strike you that you take an advantage of me, as you did once before?
4313''Does she consent to go?''
4313''Does she think of going into business?''
4313''Does that really meet the case?''
4313''Doing?
4313''Edmund, suppose you go home, and let me come back by myself?
4313''Edmund,''she said to him one evening, as they talked by the fireside,''do n''t you think you take life rather too gravely?''
4313''Encouragement to refuse marriage?''
4313''Even to inspiring the girls with zeal for an independent life?''
4313''Everard, dearest--''Was that Rhoda''s voice, so low, tender, caressing?
4313''Everard, do you know Somerset at all?''
4313''Evil?
4313''Excitement?
4313''Expense?
4313''Faithful to you?''
4313''Fiction?''
4313''For how many weeks, for how many months, have you been dishonouring me and yourself?''
4313''Freedom?''
4313''Freedom?''
4313''Gravely?
4313''Had a long talk with Virginia, I suppose?''
4313''Had you rather I did n''t come?''
4313''Had your brother any children?''
4313''Happened?
4313''Hard- hearted?
4313''Harm?
4313''Has Mr. Widdowson given her any cause for disliking him?''
4313''Has he behaved brutally to you, dearest?''
4313''Has he done so?''
4313''Has it been going on for very long?''
4313''Has n''t he wished to appeal to_ me_?''
4313''Has she any one capable of taking your place?''
4313''Have I ever denied the force of such feelings?
4313''Have n''t they made up their mind yet about the school?
4313''Have you a formal society, with rules and so on?''
4313''Have you accepted Mrs. Luke''s invitation to dinner?''
4313''Have you been here often?''
4313''Have you been into the country?''
4313''Have you been out this afternoon?''
4313''Have you enjoyed your drive?''
4313''Have you had bad news-- in the City?''
4313''Have you no love for me?
4313''Have you planned a route after your stay at Seascale?''
4313''Have you seen Everard since you went away?''
4313''Have you still to dine?''
4313''Have you undertaken to save him the expense of private detectives?
4313''Have you?
4313''He came?
4313''He declared that he was n''t to blame?''
4313''He did n''t think of staying for my return?''
4313''He has written to you?''
4313''He informs you of that?''
4313''He went there and told them everything?''
4313''He''s often there, then?''
4313''Her husband knows of this, of course-- of what you have told me?''
4313''Hid?
4313''How about worship in a parochial sense?''
4313''How about your new algebra?''
4313''How am I to prove it?''
4313''How are you to do that?''
4313''How can I help thinking so?''
4313''How can it matter?''
4313''How can we help her, Monica?
4313''How can you ask such a question?''
4313''How could I help?
4313''How did Miss Nunn look?
4313''How did you find this out?''
4313''How did you make this lady''s acquaintance?''
4313''How do you know that she is wrong?''
4313''How do you suppose I got the thing published?''
4313''How does Mary get on without you?''
4313''How does the day stand with you?''
4313''How is she?''
4313''How is your patient?''
4313''How long do you want to stay here?''
4313''How shall I entreat you?
4313''How shall I put it?''
4313''How was he to see that?''
4313''How would it be possible for you to support a wife?''
4313''How would that affect Mr. Micklethwaite''s betrothed?''
4313''How,''asked Virginia timidly,''did the news first of all reach you?''
4313''How?''
4313''How?''
4313''How_ could_ I think of marrying any one of that kind?''
4313''I do n''t understand-- why has Alice come to- night?--what''s the time?''
4313''I may write to you,''said Widdowson, his face set in an expression of anxiety,''and make an appointment, if possible, for the Sunday after next?''
4313''I spoke rather exultantly, did n''t I?
4313''I suppose you would never have written to me?''
4313''I thought you expressed a conviction that I was in the right?''
4313''I?
4313''I?
4313''I?
4313''If I go to Rutland Street,''said Monica, without heeding this admonition,''could n''t you leave me there for an hour?''
4313''If you ca n''t explain this letter, who can?''
4313''In other words, then, you have ceased to love me?''
4313''In plain words, Mr. Widdowson thinks he has cause for jealousy?''
4313''In the day time?''
4313''In the first proposal?
4313''In your own life, you mean?''
4313''Indeed, mum?''
4313''Indeed?
4313''Indeed?''
4313''Is Miss Madden awake?''
4313''Is Miss Nunn really such a determined enemy of marriage?''
4313''Is Mr. Widdowson at home?''
4313''Is emancipation getting as far as that?
4313''Is it a good place?''
4313''Is it all in vain?
4313''Is it long since you went to live apart from them?''
4313''Is it over?''
4313''Is it possible that I can be of any service to you?''
4313''Is it possible?''
4313''Is it so bad as that?
4313''Is it too late?''
4313''Is it-- is it possible--?''
4313''Is mine as agreeable to you?''
4313''Is n''t it allowed me to disapprove of what your conscience dictates?''
4313''Is n''t it better?''
4313''Is n''t it enough to be free oneself?''
4313''Is n''t it true?
4313''Is n''t the spectacle of existence quite enough to occupy one through a lifetime?
4313''Is she an educated person?''
4313''Is she well?''
4313''Is she?''
4313''Is such a life worthy of the name?''
4313''Is that really true?''
4313''Is there anything very good in the new Gilbert and Sullivan opera?''
4313''It is possible she even thinks me a liar?''
4313''It''s the child she''s anxious about?''
4313''Just because I had to stand at a counter?''
4313''Legal marriage,''she said, glancing at him,''has acquired some new sanction for you since then?''
4313''MY DEAREST MONICA,''--the missive began--''Why have you not written before this?
4313''Married?''
4313''Mary was fond of this girl?''
4313''May I not hope to see you some day, when you are walking?
4313''May n''t I take her a word of forgiveness?''
4313''Misled?
4313''Miss Madden is better to- day, I hope?''
4313''Miss Nunn not at home?''
4313''Miss Nunn?''
4313''Miss Royston had a certain cleverness, I grant; but do you think I did n''t know that she would never become what you hoped?
4313''Monica!--what is there before us?
4313''Monica--''''Well?''
4313''Must you really know?''
4313''My own darling, think what it would mean if our secret were discovered--''''Discovered?
4313''Need we talk of it?''
4313''Need you answer?''
4313''No matter at whose expense?''
4313''No one writes to you?''
4313''No, not since?''
4313''No?
4313''Nobody that I know, I suppose?''
4313''Nor even to work together?''
4313''Not at home this evening?''
4313''Not at home--?
4313''Not if I beseech you to, Monica?
4313''Not much difference?
4313''Not quite serious?
4313''Not that?
4313''Not very well?
4313''Not worth while?''
4313''Nothing else-- you are sure?''
4313''Now that''s rather a strange thing-- isn''t it?
4313''Now, what do you really want?
4313''Now, when are_ you_ going to marry?''
4313''Now, why ca n''t we always live like this?
4313''Now, wo n''t you be glad?
4313''Of course you have no doubt of her guilt?''
4313''Of the lower classes, then?''
4313''Of what?''
4313''Oh, but that''s among the foreigners, is n''t it?''
4313''Oh, do you think she would?''
4313''Oh, is it_ you_, Edmund?
4313''Oh, is she?''
4313''Oh, well, if you''re going to be narsty?''
4313''Oh, what does it matter?
4313''Oh, who knows?
4313''Oh, why not?
4313''Oh, why not?''
4313''Oh-- why?
4313''Oh?
4313''On Saturday?
4313''Or are you doubtful of your own love?''
4313''Or do you just tolerate me out of good- nature?''
4313''Ought they?
4313''Plainly-- you will tell me nothing?''
4313''Poppleton?
4313''Practically, his father disinherited him?''
4313''Pray, did you go to the Savoy?''
4313''Pray, who ever distinguished in such a case between reason and inclination?''
4313''Quite well?''
4313''Really?
4313''Really?
4313''Rhoda, what comfort have you for the poor in spirit?''
4313''Scoundrel enough?
4313''Sent for?
4313''Seriously ill, do you mean?''
4313''Shall I ask the landlady to help me up with the luggage?''
4313''Shall I be a burden to you?''
4313''Shall I find a lodging for you till Tuesday?''
4313''Shall I leave you to your meditations?''
4313''Shall we go home again?''
4313''Shall you go first, or shall I?''
4313''Shall you stay here all the week?''
4313''Shall you take me to see her?''
4313''She came to your wedding?
4313''She consented?''
4313''She has a very striking face-- don''t you think so?''
4313''She has never been there before?''
4313''She has said so?''
4313''She knows you sent for me?''
4313''Should you think me a poor creature if I resented any kind of unfaithfulness?--whether love, in any noble sense, had part in it or not?''
4313''So it is your birthday?
4313''So long as that?
4313''So there''s an end of our misery-- isn''t it, darling?
4313''So you have come after all?''
4313''So young?
4313''So your brother always refused to help you?''
4313''So,''he proceeded,''Miss Nunn regards me as a proved scoundrel?''
4313''Some one you have been in correspondence with?''
4313''Something that has been troubling you since morning, is n''t it?''
4313''Something that''s going wrong?''
4313''Something to do?
4313''Sorry?
4313''Speaking as a woman, should you say that Rhoda had reason on her side-- in the first instance?''
4313''Stay with my-- my husband?''
4313''Summer holidays are unknown to you, I suppose?''
4313''Surprised you?
4313''Tell me-- I have every right to ask-- what you most fear?''
4313''Tell me-- do you think it right for me to live with my husband when I ca n''t even regard him as a friend?''
4313''That affair you told me about some years ago?''
4313''That comes as a surprise?''
4313''That is by no means impossible for you, I think?''
4313''That letter you wrote to me at Ostend-- did it represent Rhoda''s mind as well as your own?''
4313''That was why you could n''t see me?''
4313''That was your purpose--?''
4313''The lady took it ill?''
4313''The reason.--Because you have no faith in me?''
4313''The school?
4313''Then how can you ask me to believe your assurance that she is n''t guilty?''
4313''Then how could you have hoped to see me?''
4313''Then what is the difference?''
4313''Then why did you insist upon it?''
4313''Then why not ask her?
4313''Then why were you so particular to forbid me, Monica?''
4313''Then will you let me ask you a rude question?''
4313''Then your sisters will go to Guernsey?''
4313''Then, please, how is she to judge her acquaintances?''
4313''They compelled her to?''
4313''This is your birthday?''
4313''To Cumberland?''
4313''To be used in the next world?''
4313''To do?
4313''To hear about her?
4313''To hear what?''
4313''To part?
4313''To shop work again?''
4313''To- morrow we go to Coniston?''
4313''To- morrow you leave here?''
4313''Tom?
4313''Was he a swell?''
4313''Was it really moral censure that kept you from writing to him?''
4313''Was it?
4313''Was there anything you wished particularly to speak about?''
4313''We shall go to her, of course?''
4313''Wednesday is the forbidden evening, is it not?''
4313''Well, do n''t you think you''ve had about enough of it-- experience and all?''
4313''Well, what has that to do with money- making?''
4313''Well,''he continued,''what have you to say to me?''
4313''Westward?''
4313''What about your holiday this year?''
4313''What are you going to do?''
4313''What are you talking about?''
4313''What can have caused this?
4313''What can this letter mean?
4313''What can we possibly do for the older ones?''
4313''What chance is there that this girl will marry suitably?''
4313''What comparison is there?
4313''What could you possibly say that would offend me?''
4313''What did Virginia say?
4313''What do I care?
4313''What do the words matter?''
4313''What do you advise?''
4313''What do you mean by that?''
4313''What do you mean?
4313''What do you mean?''
4313''What happened them?''
4313''What happened?''
4313''What harm in my holding your glove?
4313''What has happened?''
4313''What have I said or done to put you in such a state?
4313''What have you been doing, Virgie?''
4313''What have you heard?''
4313''What if I did?
4313''What in the world am I to do?''
4313''What is it, dear?''
4313''What is it,''she asked,''that you most fear?''
4313''What is it?''
4313''What is the matter?
4313''What is the use of such questions?''
4313''What is your objection?''
4313''What law do you mean?''
4313''What man lives in celibacy?
4313''What possible harm is there in Mr. Barfoot, when he meets me by chance in a public place, having a conversation with me?
4313''What reasonable hope have you?''
4313''What rent should you ask?''
4313''What shall I do, Miss Nunn?
4313''What sort of life have you imagined for me?
4313''What time would it be?''
4313''What tone?
4313''What?
4313''What?
4313''What_ could_ have been better?''
4313''What_ do_ you think?
4313''What_ is_ your work?
4313''What_ might_ that be, I wonder?''
4313''What_ was_ it?''
4313''Whatever she tells me-- how can I believe it?
4313''When are you silly young people coming to an end of your honeymoon?
4313''When did you see me?''
4313''When did your lies begin?
4313''When you say that,''Monica answered,''do you ever ask yourself whether you try to make me love you?
4313''When your letter came, could I very well have acted otherwise than I did?
4313''When, in fact, it had happened?''
4313''Where are you going?''
4313''Where are you going?''
4313''Where did you meet him?''
4313''Where does he appear from?''
4313''Where is Monica employed?''
4313''Where is Mrs. Widdowson living?''
4313''Where is the impossibility?
4313''Where were you?
4313''Whereabouts?''
4313''Who can that be?''
4313''Who can this be from, Alice?''
4313''Who first used the word, Rhoda?''
4313''Who is the source of your information about me?''
4313''Who knows any one well enough to say that a charge_ must_ be unfounded?''
4313''Who knows?
4313''Who knows?
4313''Who''s that?''
4313''Who-- who is it?''
4313''Why are you here at this time?''
4313''Why are you so cruel to me?''
4313''Why are you talking in this tone?''
4313''Why did n''t you speak of it before we left home?
4313''Why do n''t you go as well?''
4313''Why do you encourage that fear of your life coming to an end?''
4313''Why do you say that?''
4313''Why do you want me to repeat exactly what I said?''
4313''Why does n''t she aim at some better position?''
4313''Why have you come to- night?''
4313''Why have you come?
4313''Why have you not been to see me before this?''
4313''Why have you thought of it?''
4313''Why not?
4313''Why not?
4313''Why not?''
4313''Why not?''
4313''Why not?''
4313''Why not?''
4313''Why not?''
4313''Why should mother say what she does n''t mean?''
4313''Why should you ask that?
4313''Why should you doubt it?''
4313''Why should you wish to tell_ me_?''
4313''Why will men marry fools?''
4313''Why"of course"?
4313''Why, indeed?''
4313''Why?
4313''Why?
4313''Why?
4313''Will it do?''
4313''Will you allow me to walk a little way with you?''
4313''Will you answer me a question with perfect truthfulness?''
4313''Will you ask her to come and see me?''
4313''Will you cease coming to look for me when I do n''t know of it?''
4313''Will you come and see Miss Barfoot?''
4313''Will you give me a few minutes now?''
4313''Will you give me the piece of music?''
4313''Will you go with me to Mrs. Cosgrove''s this evening?''
4313''Will you have the kindness to tell me,''he said more gravely,''whether my cousin was suffering only from that cause?''
4313''Will you hear what I have to say, Miss Nunn?
4313''Will you kiss me?''
4313''Will you let me shake hands with you?''
4313''Will you marry me?''
4313''Will you please to give me your cousin''s letter?''
4313''Will you please to tell me,''he asked''whether Mrs. Widdowson is here?''
4313''Will you tell me about them?''
4313''Will you tell me in plain terms what it was that your cousin did when he disgraced himself?''
4313''Will you tell me something more about the"experience"you are getting?
4313''Will you tell me, Miss Nunn, why you behave so coldly to me?''
4313''Will you?
4313''Will you?''
4313''With Mr. Bullivant?
4313''Without sympathy, of course?''
4313''Wo n''t it make our life so much simpler and happier?''
4313''Wo n''t you come out again after supper?''
4313''Work?
4313''Would it be possible?
4313''Would it be right if I ceased to care for every one else?
4313''Would n''t it be better still if you left me?''
4313''Would n''t you like to smoke a cigar before we start again?''
4313''Would you be willing to pay five and sixpence?''
4313''Would you have received us?''
4313''Yes, but I can not think-- isn''t that just a little narrow?''
4313''Yielding in one point that did n''t matter to you at all?
4313''You always take coffee, I think?''
4313''You are Miss Vesper?''
4313''You are absolutely sure that this is the case?''
4313''You are conscious of no difference?''
4313''You are going?''
4313''You are leaving?
4313''You are on friendly terms with such people?''
4313''You are resolved never to marry?''
4313''You are returning to him?''
4313''You are still doubtful of me, Rhoda?''
4313''You are sure you can leave home to- morrow-- without being suspected?''
4313''You are sure you have n''t exaggerated Mr. Barfoot''s failings?''
4313''You are-- really?''
4313''You are?''
4313''You ca n''t say that you love me?''
4313''You confess it?
4313''You could hardly believe it, I dare say?
4313''You could n''t imagine Miss Nunn in such a costume?''
4313''You dare not face Mary?''
4313''You do n''t find them very pleasant company?''
4313''You do n''t think it would be an improvement?''
4313''You do pardon me, Miss Nunn?''
4313''You expect me to believe you?''
4313''You go on Monday?''
4313''You go to her house sometimes?''
4313''You had quite lost sight of her, had n''t you?''
4313''You hate it?''
4313''You have been away-- out of England?''
4313''You have left the shop?''
4313''You have n''t been waiting here long, I hope?''
4313''You have n''t had dinner?''
4313''You have n''t made Mr. Barfoot''s acquaintance yet?''
4313''You have n''t seen each other?''
4313''You have n''t seen him more than once before?''
4313''You have never been there?''
4313''You have no inclination to study now?''
4313''You have seen him then?''
4313''You have?''
4313''You knew he was going to Cumberland?''
4313''You know that Miss Nunn has gone down into Cumberland?''
4313''You know we could n''t go on living like this-- don''t you, Monica?''
4313''You left this morning, and have only just returned?''
4313''You love me?''
4313''You mean about the school?''
4313''You mean that he has task enough in striving to be an honourable man?''
4313''You mean that we are to go through the lakes together-- as we have been to- day?''
4313''You mean that you believe everything Mr. Widdowson has said?''
4313''You mean that?''
4313''You mean_ him_?''
4313''You must feel rather lonely in your lodgings sometimes?''
4313''You notice it?
4313''You prefer driving?''
4313''You promise faithfully?
4313''You really have?''
4313''You regret that it is n''t done?''
4313''You say you were never at that man''s rooms before to- day?''
4313''You talked to him, did n''t you?''
4313''You think I have behaved rather badly-- let us say, harshly?''
4313''You think it natural?
4313''You think the person at Southend wo n''t write again?''
4313''You thoroughly approve all this, Miss Nunn?''
4313''You went when Miss Nunn was there?''
4313''You were at the Savoy?''
4313''You were born at Cheddar?''
4313''You will bring this girl back, and continue teaching her as before?''
4313''You will forgive me?''
4313''You will have it?''
4313''You will take me away with you?''
4313''You wish me to?''
4313''You wish to know still more of me, personally?''
4313''You wo n''t be hard upon a starving man?''
4313''You would n''t allow him to?''
4313''You would n''t care to tell me about-- anything?
4313''You would n''t mind telling me what your married name may be?''
4313''You?
4313''Your sisters are not here to- day?''
4313''Your sisters are older than yourself?''
4313''Your view of the fitness of things is that I should request her to wait upon you for that purpose?''
4313''Your work?
4313''_ A propos_,''said Everard,''did you ever read"The City of Dreadful Night"?''
4313*** Arromanches, in Normandy--?
4313After a week of convalescence, she said one morning,--''Could n''t we go away somewhere?
4313After all, was he not behaving in the very way she ought to desire?
4313After glancing at her once or twice, he said reprovingly,--''Have you finished your Sunday book?''
4313All days and times are the same to me; but I am afraid it is only on Sunday that you are at leisure?''
4313Am I not your father in mathematics?''
4313Am I to make my bow, and abandon in resignation the one chance of perfecting my life?''
4313And Rhoda Nunn?
4313And because you were disappointed, did n''t you wait about, and go there a second time?''
4313And do you really feel better?''
4313And have you really taken a house there, Edmund?
4313And how can I blame him?
4313And how long did it take you to write this little book?''
4313And how would it result?
4313And if for him it became earnest, why what did he seek but strong experiences?
4313And is your work as successful as ever?''
4313And it is really your birthday?
4313And may I smoke?''
4313And might not an avowal of the whole truth elicit from her counsel of gratitude-- some solace, some guidance?
4313And now we may really be friends, I hope?''
4313And take lodgings, you mean?
4313And were you quite serious in_ anything_ you said?''
4313And when are you coming to see them again?''
4313And why had she consented?
4313And why should this love ever have an end?
4313And wore a wedding garment?''
4313And yet we_ were_ happy, were n''t we, my beautiful?
4313And you will meet me a little oftener?''
4313And your sisters?''
4313Are female teachers to be vowed to celibacy?''
4313Are they still the same?''
4313Are you alone?''
4313Are you going far?''
4313Are you here for the whole winter?''
4313Are you in bed yet?''
4313Are you living quite alone?''
4313Are you married?''
4313Are you obliged to go anywhere?''
4313Are you really sorry?
4313Are you so blind as to imagine that any good will ever come of such a person?
4313As you have always spoken with pleasure of your old home, Clevedon, suppose we give up this house and go and live there?''
4313As you have no particular engagement, Mr. Bullivant, would n''t it be kind to--?''
4313At this moment, was she not contending with herself?
4313Barfoot wo n''t leave before ten, I suppose?''
4313Barfoot would think so?
4313Barfoot?''
4313Barfoot?''
4313Barfoot?''
4313Barfoot?''
4313Barfoot?''
4313Bending slightly forward, with an anxious expression, she said in confidential tones--''Can you help to put my mind at rest about Monica?
4313Bevis?''
4313Bullivant?''
4313Bullivant?''
4313Bullivant?''
4313But come now, is n''t there any way in which I could help?''
4313But could n''t I see her for a moment?''
4313But could n''t one open a preparatory school, for instance?
4313But do you know that there are half a million more women than men in this happy country of ours?''
4313But for what?
4313But had she really the least chance of marrying a man whom she could respect-- not to say love?
4313But how can we think of that?
4313But how do you develop and fortify yourself?''
4313But how if Everard resisted such tendencies?
4313But how would it affect his thought of her?
4313But how?
4313But if I write a line to you, say on Friday, would you let me know whether you can come?''
4313But if his intellectual sympathy became tinged with passion-- and did he discern no possibility of that?
4313But is n''t it true that your health has a graver importance than if you yourself only were concerned?''
4313But might I not change your views of it-- in some respects?''
4313But must not Everard''s conception of her have suffered?
4313But of course I shall see you again before the end of July?
4313But since then?
4313But suppose she still meets me with the remark that things are just as they were-- that nothing has been explained?''
4313But was there anything more-- any new power?
4313But what about the great number of girls who are claimed by domestic duties?
4313But what can a man do, unless he has genius?''
4313But what is_ your_ love worth?''
4313But when we get back again, how will it be?
4313But why should n''t you respect and love a girl who belongs to good society?''
4313But why were you sure about it?''
4313But will you assist us to find a suitable place?''
4313But would n''t it be possible to make a better use of that money?
4313But you would hardly dream of taking her back again?''
4313But, Miss Madden, may I not be on terms of friendship with you?''
4313But, by- the- bye, how did it come about?''
4313But-- were you thinking of abroad?''
4313But--''''But?''
4313Can not I persuade you, dear?
4313Can you explain Monica''s behaviour-- not only on that one occasion, but the deceit she practised at other times?
4313Can you give me certainty?
4313Can you remember?''
4313Carr?''
4313Conisbee?''
4313Constraining him to legal marriage, would she not lower herself in his estimation, and make the endurance of his love less probable?
4313Copying with a type- machine, and teaching others to do the same-- isn''t that it?''
4313Could I have a little conversation with you?''
4313Could he be right in the interpretation which at once suggested itself to his mind-- or perhaps to his vanity?
4313Could he not even now retrace his steps?
4313Could it be that this man reciprocated, and more than reciprocated, her complex feeling?
4313Could n''t they have a talk at the place in Great Portland Street, when no one else was there?
4313Could n''t you help us, dear Miss Nunn?
4313Could she even think of it?
4313Could such a marriage as this be judged a marriage at all, in any true sense of the word?
4313Could we not agree upon terms within my-- within my power?''
4313Could you have imagined anything so disgraceful?''
4313Did I frighten you with those joking confessions in my letters?
4313Did I understand you to say that you go away tomorrow?
4313Did he not love her?
4313Did it matter what he might think?
4313Did it signify mere jealousy, or a profounder view of things?
4313Did n''t the day''s perfection end before there was any word of marriage?''
4313Did n''t you go to that man Barfoot''s door and knock there?
4313Did she herself do any kind of artistic work?
4313Did she say anything, or give any sign, that might make one really uneasy on her account?''
4313Did she take enough exercise?
4313Did she tell you anything about her wonderful son?''
4313Did you come to keep me in sight?''
4313Did you ever have piano lessons?''
4313Did you expect me?''
4313Did you seriously wish me to know him?''
4313Did you?''
4313Do I seem to you a shallow optimist?''
4313Do ladies enter into that kind of union?''
4313Do n''t I seem to enjoy myself?''
4313Do n''t you envy her, Monica?
4313Do n''t you feel ever so little regret that your severe logic prevailed?''
4313Do n''t you know, my dear boy, that there are heaps of ladies, real ladies, waiting the first decent man who offers them five or six hundred a year?
4313Do n''t you know, sir, that my invitations are like those of Royalty-- polite commands?''
4313Do n''t you love me enough to face whatever may happen?''
4313Do n''t you regret giving me permission to call upon you?
4313Do they give you any summer holiday?''
4313Do you abandon them, with a helpless sigh, to be moping and mawkish and unhealthy?''
4313Do you advocate polygamy?
4313Do you care for books?''
4313Do you know any man that would dream of marrying her?''
4313Do you know it?''
4313Do you know that he has taken a house at Clevedon-- a beautiful house?
4313Do you know what it is to be in love?''
4313Do you really love me?''
4313Do you remember the name of Micklethwaite-- a man who used to cram me with mathematics?
4313Do you say it with the ordinary meaning?''
4313Do you sit here day after day and call each other pretty names?
4313Do you still intend--''''Intend?
4313Do you suppose I drink?
4313Do you think now that we know one single girl who in her heart believes it is better never to love and never to marry?''
4313Do you think of me as your servant, Edmund?''
4313Do you think of me with less friendliness than when we had our evening on the river?''
4313Do you think she is sorry?''
4313Do you wonder that I would walk the diameter of the globe to win her love?''
4313Does any one suspect--?''
4313Does he interest you?''
4313Does it strike you as so very bad?''
4313Does she ever speak of me?''
4313Does that name convey anything to you?
4313Does that please you?''
4313During the past month-- the past three months-- have you made profession of love-- have you even pretended love-- to any woman?''
4313Eight hundred pounds is, to be sure, a sum of money; but how, in these circumstances, was it to be applied?
4313Even if her strength sufficed for simulating a natural manner, could she consent to play so base a part?
4313For instance, what time is given you for meals?''
4313Had she been suffering long?
4313Had she ever loved him?
4313Had she not anguish enough to endure without the addition of frantic jealousy?
4313Had she or not a vein of sentiment in her character?
4313Had she wholesome variety of occupation?
4313Had the new revelation prepared itself?
4313Had the patient any mental disquietude?
4313Had the poor little woman-- doubtless miserable with her husband-- actually let herself fall in love with him?
4313Has it, or has it not, occurred to you to see Mrs. Widdowson herself?
4313Has n''t he cause for jealousy?
4313Has she come to a decision?''
4313Has she spoken to you of any?''
4313Have n''t you an early- closing day?''
4313Have n''t you broken the understanding three or four times?''
4313Have n''t you known it?''
4313Have the girls told you that there''s a nightingale in Mr. Williams''s orchard?''
4313Have you any doubt of me?''
4313Have you bathed?''
4313Have you been followed?
4313Have you begun to hate me?''
4313Have you ever been in love with any man?''
4313Have you never thought of employing it in some practical enterprise?''
4313Have you promised never to let me go out of your sight?''
4313Have you still the same pleasure in living there?''
4313Have you told her any scandal about me?''
4313Have you-- have you ventured to tell her?''
4313Having lost one purpose in life, dignified, absorbing, likely to extend its sphere as time went on, what other could she hope to substitute for it?
4313He added, in an undertone,''I hope I may include you, Miss Nunn?''
4313He asked you to marry him?''
4313He believed she had been a pupil of Miss Barfoot''s at one time?
4313He did not look round, but said carelessly,--''So you are back?''
4313He refused to say more, and what am I to believe?''
4313He seemed to be reproving himself for a blunder, and after a short silence asked in a tone of kindness,--''Do you prefer the town?''
4313He smiled constrainedly, and said in a low voice,--''You wish for that old, idle form--?''
4313Houghton?''
4313How can I go back there, with your kisses on my lips?
4313How can I help them so effectually as by living among them, one of them, and showing that my life is anything but weariness and lamentation?
4313How can I leave you?''
4313How can I live until--?
4313How can we hope that any one will take her as a companion?
4313How can you doubt it?''
4313How can you think Monica--?
4313How can you think of such a thing?
4313How could she expect to find him?
4313How could she have got the address?''
4313How did he meet the charge Mr. Widdowson made against him?''
4313How did she speak?''
4313How do you understand it?
4313How else can I behave to_ you_--conscious of my innocence, yet in the nature of things unable to prove it?''
4313How had this stiff, stern fellow with the grizzled beard won such a wife?
4313How have you spoken of me to Miss Nunn?''
4313How is he going on?''
4313How is my cousin to- day?''
4313How many hours''genuine happiness of soul had that love afforded him?
4313How many marriages were anything more than mutual forbearance?
4313How old are you, Monica?''
4313How old might he be?
4313How shall we go home?''
4313How to get at the secrets of this woman''s heart?
4313How would such practical heresy affect Everard''s position?
4313How, indeed, was he to defend himself?
4313How_ could_ you?''
4313How_ dare_ I remain with a man I hate?''
4313I am sure you will sit down with me?''
4313I ca n''t live without you--''''But, if that is true, why have n''t you the courage to let every one know it?
4313I ca n''t talk--''''And you do n''t really know nothing about_ him_?''
4313I do n''t know how I have refrained so long--''''What is your love worth?''
4313I may perhaps come to feel you as a girl ought to when she marries, and how else can I tell unless I meet you and talk with you?
4313I mean, what woman above the level of a petted pussy- cat?''
4313I myself do n''t think it was very delicate, but have n''t you worried me to say something of the kind?''
4313I repeat what I said then: Rhoda, will you marry me?''
4313I spoke without thinking--''''But_ why_ should you speak like that?
4313I suppose he is in some profession?''
4313I think-- will you permit me to sit down?
4313I told her that there was no truth in--''''But how did she look?''
4313I wonder what she is doing?
4313If I am so unhappy as to fail, how would you be anything but quite free?''
4313If I have not perfect trust in you what will become of me?''
4313If Micklethwaite''s Algebra got accepted in all the schools, what would that mean to Mick?
4313If Monica persisted, what means had he of confining her to the house-- short of carrying her by main force to an upper room and there locking her in?
4313If a man merely travelled, could he possibly exhaust all the beauties and magnificences that are offered to him in every country?
4313If any such connection existed, might it not help to explain Bevis''s half- heartedness?
4313If it damaged his prospects and sundered him from his relatives, how could she hope that his love of her, the cause of it all, would long endure?
4313If she discerned any serious change, any grave indication of disappointment-- What was her life to be?
4313If she rejected his proposal of a free union, was he prepared to marry her in legal form?
4313If the eagerness were simple and honest, would she not have accepted his suggestion and have gone in the morning?
4313If the elder woman could fall into this degradation, might there not be possibilities in Monica''s character such as he had refused to contemplate?
4313If this was to be his experience of matrimonial engagement-- What rubbish had Mary been communicating?
4313If you ca n''t and wo n''t trust me, how can I possibly love you?''
4313If you would only just tell me, darling, when you were first introduced?''
4313In real life, how many men and women_ fall in love_?
4313In winning her had he obtained the woman of his desire?
4313Indeed, we shall both be better for the exertion of such an undertaking-- don''t you think so?''
4313Is it published?''
4313Is it the result of her being falsely accused?''
4313Is n''t Miss Nunn able to rejoin us?''
4313Is n''t he still there?''
4313Is n''t it account- book morning?''
4313Is n''t it for you to decide?''
4313Is n''t it fortunate?''
4313Is n''t it natural that Mary should repent of having been guided by you, and perhaps say rather severe things?''
4313Is n''t there anywhere you could go, and meet me afterwards?''
4313Is not this a strange, a brutal thing?''
4313Is that lady an old acquaintance?''
4313Is this the result of Mary''s talk?''
4313It is eight hundred pounds, I think?
4313It is_ your_ birthday?''
4313It sounds incredible, does n''t it?
4313It was n''t very cheerful, was it?
4313It was time for Virginia to make herself ready, and here arose a new perturbation; what had she suitable for wear under such circumstances?
4313It would be a great kindness to us--''''Does she declare that she will never return to her husband?''
4313It would be enjoyable, would n''t it?''
4313Kind of him, was n''t it?
4313May I remind you that you promised me some flowers from Cheddar?''
4313Micklethwaite?''
4313Might he not reasonably count on ten or fifteen more years of activity?
4313Might it not be true that he was a changed man in certain respects, and that a genuine emotion at length had control of him?
4313Miss Barfoot angry with_ you_?''
4313Monica, we are not saying good- bye for ever?''
4313More decidedly one of the new women than you yourself-- isn''t she?''
4313Mr.--what was the name?''
4313My darling, how shall I ever believe it?
4313My love-- what is my love?
4313Need he entertain that worst of fears-- the dread that his independence might fail him, subdued by his wife''s will?
4313Neither spoke until they were in the shelter of the streets; then Widdowson asked suddenly,--''Who_ is_ that person?''
4313No sitting down behind the counter, I suppose?''
4313Now if any one speaks to you about_ me_, when I have left England, will you find some nice word?
4313Now it has occurred to me, Mrs. Conisbee, that-- that I would ask you whether you would have any objection to her sharing my room with me?
4313Now, why did n''t you come and ask me to find you a wife?
4313Now, would you have done the same, or not?''
4313Obstinate?
4313Of course she has told you all about it?''
4313Of course you will let your friends make inquiries for you?''
4313Oh, and have you given notice, darling?''
4313Oh, and what did Monica decide about-- about-- really, what_ was_ I going to ask?
4313Oh, but I wanted to ask you, Do you think women ought to sit in Parliament?''
4313Or so old?
4313Or would his strong instinct of lordship urge him to direct his wife as a dependent, to impose upon her his own view of things?
4313Or, if there are insuperable objections, why not see Miss Madden?
4313Or, loving ardently, would she renounce a desired happiness from dread of female smiles and whispers?
4313Ought she, did she dare, to return home at all?
4313Pathetic, do n''t you think?
4313Perhaps it rather upset her?''
4313Perhaps she will refuse to admit me?''
4313Perhaps you aim at an income equal to my own?''
4313Perhaps, if I went at once to Mrs. Cosgrove''s, I might be fortunate enough to find her still there?''
4313Poppleton?''
4313Poppleton?''
4313Pray, what do you wish to hear?''
4313Rather than that, would it not be preferable to break with her husband, and openly live apart from him, alone?
4313Really?
4313Rhoda looked into her teacup for a second or two, then said with a smile,--''You also are a reformer?''
4313Rhoda moved her eyebrows, and asked calmly,--''Are you serious?''
4313Seriously desiring her aid, he looked at her with a grave smile, and asked,--''Do you believe her capable of falling in love?''
4313Shall I ask them to try and get you a cab?''
4313Shall I run down to Sheffield to see you, or is there any chance of the holidays bringing you this way?
4313Shall I tell you what happened when I went to Seascale?''
4313Shall we go quickly-- some distance, or only just a little quicker than the tide would float us?''
4313Shall we walk this way?''
4313Shall you be able to do so?''
4313Shall you not henceforth be at leisure on other days besides Sunday?
4313Shall_ you_ be?''
4313She does n''t wish me to go to her?''
4313She found they had left Herne Hill; if this letter reached him, would not Edmund come and see her at her house in Wimpole Street?
4313She had determined on making a confession to Rhoda; but would she benefit by it?
4313She had great qualities; but was there not much in her that he must subdue, reform, if they were really to spend their lives together?
4313She had lied to him so resolutely before; was she not capable of elaborate falsehood to save her reputation and protect her child?
4313She had money, but how to obtain possession of it?
4313She has forbidden me to say anything-- and how could I, Miss Nunn?
4313She has sowed her wild oats-- why should n''t a woman as well as a man?
4313She has the honesty to say what she is, but you-- Where were you yesterday when you were not at your sister''s?
4313She says that she will take the pledge of total abstinence, and I encouraged her to do so; it may be some use, do n''t you think?''
4313She shunned him purposely beyond a doubt, and did not that denote a fear of him justified by her inclination?
4313She wishes me to ask you--''''What?''
4313Should you fear for her prudence?''
4313Show me over the premises, will you?''
4313So you did n''t come straight home from Japan?''
4313So, if I disapprove of your becoming the kind of woman that acknowledges no law, you will cease to love me?''
4313Some day,''his voice was all but extinguished,''some day-- who knows?''
4313Some whimsey?
4313Still, I hope you were not-- displeased?''
4313Still, under the circumstances-- surely she ought to return to him?''
4313Suppose he pushed his joke to the very point of asking her to marry him?
4313Suppose we have that walk to- morrow?
4313Supposing her incapable of bowing before him, of kissing his feet, could he not be content to make of her a loyal friend, a delightful companion?
4313Tell me then-- is there at this moment any woman living who has a claim upon you-- a moral claim?''
4313Ten years hence, would she have subdued her soul to a life of weary insignificance, if not of dishonour?
4313That sounds shameless to you?
4313That takes one''s breath away.--Are many of the girls ladies?''
4313That''s all very well for a matter- of- fact person like cousin Mary, but_ I_ have a strong vein of poetry; you must have noticed it?''
4313The air of Walworth Road is pure and invigorating about midnight; why should the reposeful ramble be hurried by consideration for weary domestics?
4313The girl brought her face near, and snarled in the true voice of the pavement--''Is it a name as you''re ashamed to let out?''
4313The music was nice, was n''t it?''
4313The perfect day-- wasn''t it?''
4313The question is-- Will you accept my word?''
4313The usual kind of drudgery, was it?''
4313Then how did you get away at last?''
4313Then you are really under the impression that there''s some one she-- prefers to her husband?''
4313Then you have heard the accusation he makes?''
4313Then-- Surely that was a knock at her door?
4313This was asking much of nature and civilization; did he grossly deceive himself in thinking he had found the paragon?
4313To give him the lifelong reflection that, for love of him, a woman excelled by few in qualities of brain and heart had died like a rat?
4313To make it up?''
4313To steam the back of the envelope-- would it not leave marks, a rumpling or discoloration?
4313To think that I missed you when you called and left that note-- for it was you yourself, was it not?
4313To us, is not a woman a woman?''
4313To what end?
4313To- morrow, and back on Saturday?''
4313Under cover of independent thought, of serious moral theories, did he conceal mere profligacy and heartlessness?
4313Unless you have come to defend yourself against a false accusation, is there any profit in our talking of these things?''
4313Was Rhoda doing this on purpose?
4313Was Rhoda generous enough to appreciate her motives?
4313Was flawless faith possible to Everard Barfoot?
4313Was he in truth capable of respecting her individuality?
4313Was he not helping her to hate him?
4313Was he worse than she had imagined?
4313Was it a bad sign that he carried neither gloves nor walking- stick?
4313Was it conceivable that Monica had taken advantage of the liberty he had of late allowed her?
4313Was it impossible to move her as other women are moved?
4313Was it not a bad beginning to rule him against his conscience?
4313Was it possible that he had heard her?
4313Was it possible?
4313Was it too bold a thought?
4313Was it when you told me you had been to hear Miss Barfoot''s lecture, and never went there at all?''
4313Was n''t Alice here?''
4313Was not her honesty, her dignity, struggling against the impulses of her heart?
4313Was not that a beginning of evil augury?
4313Was she capable of the love which defies all humiliation?
4313Was she not an intimate friend of Miss Nunn?
4313Was she not getting to be a very lax- minded girl?
4313Was such revival of disheartened love a likely or a possible thing?
4313Was there not terrible reason for mistrusting her?
4313Was this the first time that he had come to look at the place where she lived-- possibly to spy upon her?
4313Was trouble of any kind( the doctor smiled) weighing upon her?
4313Was_ she_ not in danger of forgetting these watchwords, which had guided her life out of youth into maturity?
4313Was_ she_ responsible for this?
4313We are separated, and perhaps shall never see each other again, but may not our hearts remain for ever true?
4313We fall in love it is true; but do we really deceive ourselves about the future?
4313We have to ask ourselves: What course of training will wake women up, make them conscious of their souls, startle them into healthy activity?''
4313We must n''t travel together, but you shall come-- when I am settled there--''''Why ca n''t I go with you?''
4313Well, have you seen him?''
4313Well, what does the word mean?
4313What I wish to know is, whether you can still employ me with any satisfaction?''
4313What are you doing here?''
4313What are you going to do, child?''
4313What became of the girl?''
4313What better opportunity, if he had not dismissed her memory from his thoughts?
4313What business has he to desert his wife and children?''
4313What can be expected?
4313What can possibly have happened?
4313What change would you make?''
4313What contemptible woman''s folly was this?
4313What could be more proper?''
4313What could he do to show how he appreciated Monica''s self- denial on his behalf?
4313What could he do?
4313What could he or I do but patiently give ear?
4313What could possibly have been more villainous?
4313What courage is needed?
4313What did she mean by her message to Virginia?
4313What does it mean?''
4313What earthly prospect was there of my being able to marry?''
4313What else was I to do?''
4313What has happened since we parted this morning?''
4313What has he said?
4313What have we to do with other people?
4313What have you to say to it?''
4313What if Mr. Barfoot happened to encounter her as she ascended the stairs?
4313What if she took an interest in other men, perchance more her equals than he?
4313What interest have you in learning my name?''
4313What is Mary doing at Faversham?''
4313What is it that will last?
4313What is its importance to you?''
4313What is more vulgar than the ideal of novelists?
4313What is the address?
4313What is the sanction for this judgment?''
4313What is your word worth?
4313What kind of work?
4313What matter that they were alone?
4313What motive could he possibly have for playing a part?
4313What now?
4313What other motive have you?''
4313What path of spiritual health was discoverable?
4313What plans have you for to- day?''
4313What redemption could there be for her?
4313What right have I to ask anything of the kind?
4313What should we gain?
4313What temptation?
4313What the deuce do you mean?
4313What was Rhoda Nunn doing?
4313What was the hour?
4313What woman is?
4313What would become of him?
4313What would become of the encouragement I am able to offer our girls?''
4313What would he do?
4313What would your answer be?''
4313What wrong was she committing?
4313What''s four hundred and fifty?
4313What''s the matter?''
4313What, she asked herself again, would be the end of it all?
4313What_ can_ you have to tell me, Monica?''
4313What_ does_ it all mean?
4313What_ does_ it mean?
4313What_ will_ Alice say?
4313When I reach there I shall be met at the station by one of our people, and-- just think, how could we manage?
4313When a few minutes had passed in silence, he asked,--''Do you feel that I am no longer quite a stranger to you, Miss Madden?''
4313When do you wish to be home?''
4313When once a woman has lied how can she ever again be believed?
4313When quite close to her, he exclaimed,--''Well, Rhoda?''
4313When she was gone, Rhoda looked steadily at Barfoot, and asked--''Have you really been out of town?''
4313When they shook hands,--''You will really bring me the flowers?''
4313When would you like to have dinner?''
4313Where did you get them, I wonder?''
4313Where did you go with Mr. Bullivant this morning?''
4313Where do you come from?''
4313Where have you been all the time?''
4313Where shall I live till Tuesday?''
4313Where was her holiday to be spent?
4313Where were those hours spent?
4313Where were you this afternoon?
4313Where were you this afternoon?''
4313Where''s Alice?
4313Whether she can ever break herself of it, who knows?
4313Which do you like best, the Savoy operas or the burlesques at the Gaiety?''
4313Which part of the theatre do you prefer?''
4313Which?''
4313Who else bears herself as you do-- with splendid disdain of common mortals?''
4313Who is this gentleman?
4313Who knows?
4313Who knows?
4313Who knows?''
4313Who was the young lady you did n''t introduce me to?''
4313Why are you so unreasonable?
4313Why could n''t she stay with us, and keep her liberty?
4313Why did n''t he help you?''
4313Why did n''t he take a train back at once?''
4313Why did you come and interfere with me?
4313Why did you ever come to such a place?''
4313Why do n''t I encourage girls to become governesses, hospital nurses, and so on?
4313Why do n''t I marry?
4313Why do n''t we confine ourselves to this ground?
4313Why do you ask?''
4313Why do you say what you know is disagreeable to me?
4313Why do you stay at such a place, Monica?''
4313Why do you tell me this?''
4313Why do you wish to know?''
4313Why does it mean disgrace?''
4313Why had she left him in despondency, in doubt whether he would ever again see her?
4313Why had they not thought of this long ago?
4313Why has his wife left him?''
4313Why have n''t you made another appointment?
4313Why have n''t you used the opportunities that you knew I could put in your way?''
4313Why is it anti- social?''
4313Why is the man who toils more meritorious than he who enjoys?
4313Why may n''t I tell you that you interest me very much, and that I am afraid to trust only to chance for another meeting?
4313Why not ask her simply to be his wife, and so remove one element of difficulty from his pursuit?
4313Why not take her away to some place where only foreigners and strangers would be about them?
4313Why not?''
4313Why scoundrel?''
4313Why should he hide?''
4313Why should he hold by a resolve of which he did not absolutely approve the motive?
4313Why should it?''
4313Why should n''t I?''
4313Why should n''t Miss Nunn and I go to the theatre?''
4313Why should she go to your rooms?''
4313Why should she live here in lodgings, when a comfortable house is at the disposal of you all?
4313Why should you fancy that?''
4313Why should you say_ allow_?
4313Why should you waste your time?
4313Why this spirit of avarice all at once?''
4313Why was she not more politic?
4313Why, Edmund?
4313Why, had he not just been thinking of another woman, reflecting that she, or one like her, would have made him a more suitable wife than Monica?
4313Why?''
4313Why_ would_ he attempt the impossible?
4313Widdowson gazed at the pleasure- boats lying below on the strand, and said diffidently,--''Would you care to go on the river?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Widdowson?''
4313Will it bear putting into words?''
4313Will you allow me to be very frank with you?''
4313Will you allow me to call at some hour when I could speak to you in private?
4313Will you allow me to keep silence about your call, Mrs. Widdowson?
4313Will you allow me to meet some friend of yours whom you trust?''
4313Will you believe me?''
4313Will you come and give your help?''
4313Will you come for a drive?''
4313Will you come in?''
4313Will you give me the opportunity of making things between us more regular?
4313Will you hear it as a friend?
4313Will you take this chair, Mrs. Widdowson?
4313Will you tell me how that unpleasantness came to an end?''
4313Will you tell me if there is anything I can say or do to make your consent possible?
4313Will you tell me something about yours?''
4313Will you think quietly over it all?
4313Will you write to me?''
4313With more kisses?
4313With nothing but references to past employers, what can one expect?
4313With salary continued?
4313Wo n''t it be better in every way?''
4313Wo n''t you come for that drive with me next Sunday?
4313Wo n''t you let me be of use?''
4313Wo n''t you make a sacrifice for the poor girl''s sake?
4313Would Miss Barfoot be able to get back at all?
4313Would he not have been a much happier man if he had married a girl distinctly his inferior in mind and station?
4313Would he write again?
4313Would it not be well if she spent an hour a day in sewing or fancy work?
4313Would it not have been possible to gratify him, and yet to gain his consent to legal marriage?
4313Would it profit her to make confession and be humbled before him?
4313Would n''t you like to go to church, dear?
4313Would she have the courage to urge one grave difficulty that he left aside?
4313Would you be willing to make her acquaintance?''
4313Would you care to come back and dine with us at half- past seven?''
4313Would you object to my doing so in this room?
4313Would you rather that I came to your lodgings or you to mine?
4313Yet how did he think of that obligation?
4313Yet how was she to utter this?
4313Yet is n''t it your duty to live as though some hope were before you?''
4313Yet why might she not have been in Bevis''s flat when he himself was absent?
4313Yet would not an offer of marriage be too commonplace?
4313You admit that, I dare say?''
4313You are going to be married, Monica?
4313You are going to get married?''
4313You are very friendly with me nowadays, but I suppose your estimate of my character remains very much the same as years ago?''
4313You ca n''t regard me with any respect?''
4313You ca n''t, I am sure, repent of having done me that kindness--?''
4313You deliberately intend to waste your life?''
4313You do n''t feel that my company would be enough for you?''
4313You do n''t mind the expense, do you, Edmund?''
4313You do n''t think it would make your mind easier?''
4313You go time after time to the private chambers of an unmarried man-- a man such as that-- and it means no harm?''
4313You have decided to make the change you spoke of?''
4313You have discovered what it all meant?''
4313You have n''t seen her?''
4313You have n''t seen my wife lately?''
4313You know, by- the- bye, that my relatives consider me a blackguard?''
4313You know-- of course you know what has happened?''
4313You mean, how do I propose to employ myself?
4313You never suspected me of that, I dare say?''
4313You permit me to call upon you now and then?''
4313You play, I hope?''
4313You really did n''t care in the least how much I suffered?''
4313You really have n''t been yet?''
4313You remember Tennyson''s lines about the old church at Clevedon?
4313You remember my mentioning in a letter his horse- accident?
4313You remember?''
4313You say you have not the least love for me; if you had, should I like you to confess it instantly?
4313You spoke so strangely--''''Did I?
4313You will come some other afternoon?''
4313You will come?''
4313You will leave Seascale to- morrow week?''
4313You will make yourself unutterably wretched, and all for what?''
4313You will not oblige me to take all sorts of trouble merely to avoid useless and painful conversations?''
4313You will really make the attempt?''
4313You wo n''t be angry with me?
4313You would n''t mind, for once?
4313You, at all events, agree with me, Winifred?''
4313Your headache soon went away, I hope?
4313do n''t you love me?''
4313would it be possible?
35587A brain fever upon him-- delirious?
35587A brother, I suppose? 35587 A coquette, I suppose?"
35587A glass of whisky and water, if you please?
35587A hossback?
35587A letter carrier, you think? 35587 A mustang trap?"
35587A mustanger?
35587A separation?
35587A shot?
35587A slight service, you call it? 35587 A troop of their_ rangers_ scouring the country for Comanches, I suppose?
35587A young lady?
35587About Loo? 35587 About what?"
35587Accepted, do you suppose?
35587Admire them? 35587 After that?"
35587After what, Mr Stump?
35587Ah-- why? 35587 Ai n''t thar though?"
35587Ai n''t ye riddy, surgint?
35587Ai n''t yur master inside, too? 35587 Alone?
35587Alone?
35587Am I dead, or living?
35587Am I too old? 35587 Among trees, and picturesque?"
35587An American lady!--out here? 35587 An American lady?"
35587An Indian trick?
35587An''what shed I mean?
35587An''yur young Master Henry-- air he gone too?
35587And Wild Cat himself-- what of him?
35587And could you have done it sooner?
35587And has been very kind to Mr Maurice Gerald?
35587And has n''t he done murder?
35587And if I had, what would it have mattered? 35587 And if there_ was_ a quarrel,"argued the officer of infantry,"what then?
35587And the body, too; where can_ it_ be?
35587And the money with which you paid him?
35587And the woman?
35587And to stay there?
35587And what for a signal?
35587And what of that? 35587 And who do you suppose_ he_ is?"
35587And why not now, uncle?
35587And why not, Mr Stump? 35587 And why not?
35587And why not?
35587And why, major?
35587And you are now the most skilled in all Texas?
35587And you have?
35587And you, sir? 35587 And you, sir?"
35587And-- and-- Henry?
35587Anyhow; who the devil could find his way out of an ashpit like this? 35587 Are you speaking the truth, sir?
35587Are you sure, Mr Gerald, that your modesty is not prompting_ you_ to overrate your rivals? 35587 Are you sure?"
35587Are your mules doing their best?
35587Aristocracy?
35587Arrah, now, how could I be mistaken?
35587Asleep?
35587At your orders, s''norita?
35587At your orders, s''norita?
35587Beside himself?
35587Besides, his own shindy with the same man is suggestive of suspicion-- is it not?
35587Besides, why had the head been cut off? 35587 Bitten you, you say-- where?"
35587Burn my throat, ye say? 35587 But are you sure you can sit her over it?"
35587But before your brother came upon the ground, was there not some one else in your company?
35587But fwhat diz it all mane?
35587But how, and why? 35587 But how-- when-- you''ve not told me?"
35587But how?
35587But much prettier, of course? 35587 But the mowstanger?
35587But to- day-- when you left-- was there any fresh news in the Settlement? 35587 But whar''s he now?
35587But what did they have a difficulty about?
35587But what is it?
35587But what then? 35587 But what''s cut the hole in the door, an why''s the tother broken out at the back?
35587But what_ does_ it mean? 35587 But where did you see this, Mr O''Neal?"
35587But where is he?
35587But which woman, I wonder? 35587 But who could have betrayed us?
35587But who could have fired it? 35587 But who?--what others?"
35587But whom?
35587But why should the stranger have deceived us?
35587But why, senor? 35587 But why, sir?"
35587But you are sure, sir, he is not badly injured? 35587 But your father?
35587But, Captain Calhoun,protested the overseer, in response to the gentleman who had reproached him in such chaste terms;"how air we to find the way?"
35587But, Cassius: if we should lose our way?
35587But, Miss Poindexter,stammered the guide, still doubting the powers of the spotted mustang,"suppose she can not?
35587But, Misther Stump, did n''t yez till me to do it? 35587 But, Mr Gerald; why should we not ride off at once, in the opposite direction?"
35587But, senor; surely I can see him?
35587But,said he, after a speechless pause,"you do n''t mean to say that you could have controlled-- that the mustang was not running away with you?
35587But-- but, how came_ you_ to be here?
35587By what authority do you command me? 35587 By whom fired, do you think?"
35587By whom?
35587Can you speak French, mademoiselle?
35587Can_ you_ tell us, miss?
35587Come, Zeb; what''s the use of talking about my going back by myself? 35587 Cyan_ you_ give them, Misther Cashius Calhoun?"
35587Dan Marryshow, yez say? 35587 Dead?"
35587Did n''t I see Masther Maurice, as plain as I see yourself at this minnit? 35587 Did n''t yez heear somethin''?
35587Did you follow us any farther?
35587Did you know the man?
35587Did you notice Calhoun as he came back?
35587Did you notice whether repeated strokes had been given? 35587 Did_ you_ leap it?"
35587Div yez think they waren''t Indyins, afther all?
35587Div yez? 35587 Do n''t ye see that the shod tracks air kivered by them o''the maars?
35587Do you intend us to start now?
35587Do you mean this, Maurice Gerald? 35587 Do you remember her name?"
35587Do you suppose it likely that there''s one of them would condescend to speak to the person you''ve named?
35587Do you think it''s an Indian in disguise?
35587Do you think she can do it?
35587Do you wish me, Maurice?
35587Does n''t that bate Banagher?
35587Dreaming, or awake? 35587 Durn it, then, who ked a tuk him out?
35587Durn you, nigger, do n''t ye remember me? 35587 Except the mansion?"
35587Except the-- the--"Exceptin''the man- wuman, ye mane?
35587Fwhare''s the tother-- the young chap, or lady, or wuman-- whichsomiver she art? 35587 Fwhat is it, Gertrude?"
35587Fwhat rayzun? 35587 Going out for a ride, Louise?"
35587Good day, Miss Poindexter?
35587Had we not better silence_ him_?
35587Had you any suspicion why, or by whom, the foul deed had been done?
35587Hain''t I, though?
35587Have I done so?
35587Have they any other weapons?
35587Have you come direct from there?
35587Have you met, or seen, any one, miss-- out here, I mean?
35587He did look rather unhappy,replied the major;"but surely, Captain Sloman, you do n''t attribute it to--?"
35587He has been here, then?
35587He has recovered from his wounds?
35587He is ill? 35587 He may be dangerously wounded-- perhaps even to death?"
35587He moutn''t have the mateerils riddy? 35587 He must be dead not to have heard us?"
35587He''s coming this way, is he not?
35587His horse at the gate? 35587 His name?"
35587How are we to get him back? 35587 How can you tell that?"
35587How could I help it?
35587How do you know they have escaped it?
35587How is Phaylum Onale to know that? 35587 How long ago was that?"
35587How long have I been lying here? 35587 How long?
35587How long?
35587How should I know, cousin Cash? 35587 How should I know?"
35587How was that?
35587How, sir?
35587I hope, sir, you will favour us with your name?
35587I ought to have asked him his name?
35587I suppose you are determined upon fighting?
35587I wonder if I could ever learn to fling it?
35587I wonder if coaxing would do any good?
35587I wonder what puts such nonsense into my head?
35587I wonder who''s brought the beast here?
35587I wonder,muttered he, on re- entering the_ patio_,"whether the blubbering baby be in earnest?
35587I? 35587 If I killed her, what would it avail?
35587If a contrivance, why and to what end? 35587 If the lady be as attractive as you say, I suppose we''ll have Captain Cassius out here also, before long?"
35587Impossible?
35587In that case, ye know whar ye air?
35587In what way can it concern you, Don Miguel Diaz?
35587In what way?
35587In your opinion, was the shot sufficient to have caused death, without the mutilation that, you think, must have been done afterwards?
35587Is he asleep?
35587Is he at home? 35587 Is it modesty?"
35587Is that renegade Indian to be trusted, who appears to be as much an enemy to the whites as to the people of his own race?
35587Is that the danger of which you have been speaking?
35587Is that why the guards have been doubled? 35587 Is the major sure of the Indians being up?
35587Is there a danger?
35587Is there no chance of escape?
35587Is there no chance of shaking him off? 35587 Isidora?"
35587It appears to be a man? 35587 It frightened the others off, you think, and they followed no further?"
35587It might be somebody I would n''t care to encounter? 35587 It might be-- who knows?"
35587It mout be a man?
35587It was the same, then, who visited the jacale at night-- the same Phalim saw?
35587It will kill me, if I stay here?
35587It_ should_ be somethin''of that kind: for what else_ can_ it be? 35587 Judging by your frankness, Miss Poindexter, you will not refuse to inform the Court who that person was?"
35587Kicked?
35587Let me hear it? 35587 Let me look at that card, Henry?"
35587Like?--like?
35587Louises what means this? 35587 Mass Poindex''er, sar?
35587Mass''Tump, you it hab mix wif water?
35587May I ask if this meeting was accidental, or by appointment?
35587May I ask the name of the individual?
35587May I ask where you live?
35587May I ask, if on that night you went into the garden?
35587Maybe the sound of a man''s voice would bring the animal to a stand? 35587 Me pay?"
35587Monongahela? 35587 Mr Poindexter, you mean?"
35587My horse?
35587Na, now; you know what dis chile mean?
35587Name? 35587 Need I tell you that I took that hand?
35587Neither of you can object?
35587No use waiting for that beauty to go to bed? 35587 No, kan''t ye?
35587Now dear old Zeb, you will take this to Mr Gerald? 35587 O''what night air ye palaverin'', Plute?"
35587Odd he should always make back there?
35587Of her, and him? 35587 Of what young fellow do you speak?"
35587Of what, sir?
35587Of whom are you speaking?
35587Of whom do you speak? 35587 Oh, Mr Zebulon Stump, is it you?"
35587Oh; some vaqueros have seen it?
35587On foot, Mr Stump, as usual?
35587On horseback, then?
35587On second thoughts-- perhaps-- better not have him taken? 35587 On the Rio Grande, senor?"
35587On what charge?
35587On your hospitality, perhaps? 35587 Only Phelim you expect to meet?
35587Or is this man mocking me? 35587 Part of it there was some one with you?"
35587Perhaps he is not well waited upon? 35587 Perhaps you are anxious to get back to your party?"
35587Perhaps you will be good enough to inform the Court at what hour?
35587Perhaps,said he,"I might manage to hobble a bit, if I only had a crutch?
35587Poindexter?
35587Prandy und pitters, you calls for, Mishter Calhoun?
35587Prom whom?
35587Ready for what?
35587Save you from what?
35587She''s outside, you say? 35587 Should we not be trespassing on the patience of your people?"
35587Sign?
35587Size?
35587So soon? 35587 Some decoy to draw us into an ambuscade?"
35587Some other danger? 35587 Standing solitary?"
35587Surely I can see him?
35587Surely he is not abed till this hour? 35587 Surely it ca n''t be that?
35587Surely you are jesting, Mr Stump?
35587Surely,said Poindexter, after making an examination of the captured mustang,"this must be the animal of which old Zeb Stump has been telling me?"
35587Tell me, dear Zeb,said she, after directing her maid to withdraw,"why have they arrested this Mexican-- Miguel Diaz I mean?
35587The Lafourche ball? 35587 The aristocratic father, then?
35587The colour?
35587The other?
35587The other?
35587The others?
35587The same? 35587 Then you think the fellow may have killed Poindexter in a fair fight?"
35587Then you''ve come from his place, direct? 35587 Then, no doubt, you have heard that there has been a-- murder-- committed?"
35587There can be no harm in our seeing how the_ Irlandes_ has housed himself out here?
35587There have been Indians, then?
35587There was a reconciliation, then?
35587There''s too many of them fellows coming after-- some that can track, too? 35587 They appear to have made a circuit, and come round again?"
35587They may have crossed at some other place, and continued the pursuit?
35587Three or four mile? 35587 Thur air sommeat amiss?
35587Thur''s jest a posserbillity the skunk mout sneak out i''the night?
35587To whom does it belong-- this_ jacale_?
35587To whom?
35587Trath, yez may;--but how Misther Stump? 35587 Two-- who were they?"
35587Unpleasant news, papa?
35587Upon what?
35587Wal, ye see thet ere prickly cacktis plant growin''cloast to the edge o''the openin''?
35587Wal-- don''t ye see they air kivered wi''them o''the mowstanger''s hoss?
35587Wal; do you remember ever to hev seed it afore? 35587 Was he still in the same temper?
35587Was it a clean out-- as if done by a sharp- edged weapon?
35587Was it she who has done this?
35587Was there a snake at all?
35587Waterspouts?
35587We had better go inside, and make sure?
35587We keep our distance, do n''t we?
35587Well, Spangler, my good fellow; what do you make of it?
35587Well, that-- some of the boys here think there''s been a struggle between him and--"Atween him an who?
35587Well; since you think me so worthless, it wo n''t, I suppose, better your opinion of me, when I tell you what I''m going to do with you?
35587Were you alone?
35587Wha night? 35587 Whar?"
35587What am I to do? 35587 What are we to do?"
35587What are we to do?
35587What are we to do?
35587What can it mean?
35587What can papa have heard? 35587 What can the major have written to him?
35587What can the man be after?
35587What can the masther mane? 35587 What d''ye call this?"
35587What did you do, after making the observations you have described?
35587What did you hear, Mr Calhoun?
35587What div I mane? 35587 What do the fellows mean by their gibberish?"
35587What do ye call this?
35587What do you mean by that?
35587What do you mean, Mr Stump?
35587What do you mean, girl?
35587What do you want, Pluto?
35587What does it all mean?
35587What dress?
35587What durned tom- foolery''s this, boys?
35587What evidence of the generosity you are so good as to ascribe to me?
35587What facts?
35587What fear of them? 35587 What fellur air ye talkin''o''?
35587What game?
35587What have I done? 35587 What have you done with it, sirrah?"
35587What have you seen, that you talk so loudly?
35587What hev ye been hearin''?
35587What hoss?
35587What if I lose sight of her? 35587 What insinuation, sir?"
35587What is causing the commotion?
35587What is it for?
35587What is it, Cash?
35587What is it, Crespino?
35587What is it, Loo?
35587What is it, Mr Sansom?
35587What is it, Pheelum? 35587 What is it, anyhow?"
35587What is it, father?
35587What is it, you confounded fellow?
35587What is it?
35587What is it?
35587What is it?
35587What is it?
35587What is it?
35587What is that? 35587 What is the woman going to do?"
35587What is to be done?
35587What makes her a_ maar_? 35587 What makes ye think he travelled two hunder mile?"
35587What man? 35587 What mattered that?
35587What matters it, if we know he''s guilty? 35587 What matters that?
35587What mean you, Cash?
35587What means this, Don Miguel Diaz?
35587What means this?
35587What means those things I''ve heard-- myself seen? 35587 What news?"
35587What of all that?
35587What of yourself?
35587What proof have you of what you say? 35587 What proof?"
35587What reason did he give for saying that I should pay? 35587 What reason have you to think they were Mexicans?"
35587What sort of a lady?
35587What sort of weapon would you say?
35587What sum?
35587What the deuce is the matter with your heels-- to- day of all others? 35587 What the devil are you talking about?
35587What the devil can that mean?
35587What the devil has got into you, Phelim? 35587 What then?"
35587What varmints, Misther Stump? 35587 What war it?"
35587What would you do for_ him_?
35587What young fellow?
35587What''s a pity?
35587What''s been a doin''hyur? 35587 What''s that you''ve been saying?
35587What''s the use, Sam Manly? 35587 What''s to be did?
35587What''s to be done? 35587 What''s up anyhow?
35587What''s your explanation, Mr Stump?
35587What, then?
35587What?
35587What_ do_ you make of it, gentlemen?
35587What_ kin_ it be?
35587When is it to take place?
35587Where are you going?
35587Where can the boy be?
35587Where did it take place?
35587Where did you meet the lady you speak of?
35587Where is he?
35587Where is it? 35587 Where is my horse?"
35587Where is she?
35587Where is the horse? 35587 Where were you, Miss Poindexter, on the night when your brother was last seen?"
35587Where, Henry-- where?
35587Where? 35587 Where?"
35587Where?
35587Whet sort o''a mustang?
35587Which on''em shed I foller fust? 35587 Which way was she going?
35587Which? 35587 Who can that woman be?"
35587Who cares whether Mr Cassius Calhoun be a dangerous man, or a harmless one? 35587 Who could have helped liking him?
35587Who did you then think it might be?
35587Who does the shoein''o''yur cattle? 35587 Who ever heard of Comanches playing cards?"
35587Who had him out thet night?
35587Who has been heeur?
35587Who has been here since then?
35587Who knows but the cause of quarrel-- if there''s been one-- might not be this splendid senorita so much talked about? 35587 Who knows?"
35587Who then ked it be; unless it war the owner o''the hoss hisself? 35587 Who wants me?"
35587Who war it, then? 35587 Who''s inside the shanty?"
35587Who''s insoide? 35587 Who, then, is the black beast, or what is it-- if not a human?"
35587Who? 35587 Who?
35587Who?
35587Who?
35587Who?
35587Who_ can_ she be?

35587Why do ye weesh that? 35587 Why do you ask that, Loo?
35587Why do you ask the question, Louise?
35587Why do you think so, papa? 35587 Why do you think that?"
35587Why have you brought it forth?
35587Why have you thus armed yourself?
35587Why not?
35587Why should I not do the same with the body of Henry Poindexter? 35587 Why should I?
35587Why should I? 35587 Why the hell do n''t you haul?"
35587Why you be go''way in dat big hurry? 35587 Why, Major Ringwood?

35587You admire these wild scenes, Miss Poindexter?
35587You appear impatient to go forward? 35587 You are jesting, Don Miguel?"
35587You are perhaps not aware, Mr Stump,rejoins the Regulator Chief, in a calm voice,"of what we''ve just been hearing?"
35587You are sure he is dead, then?
35587You are sure of it?
35587You changed your mind about its being Indians?
35587You do n''t know her? 35587 You do n''t suppose they leaped it?"
35587You do n''t tink, Pluto, he been gone kill Massa Henry?
35587You expect to be pursued?
35587You hain''t seed nuthin''o''the young lady, hev ye, Mister Calhoun?
35587You have been to his room?
35587You have one?
35587You know my reasons, nephew?
35587You know the old hacienda has a flat roof, I suppose? 35587 You know the spot of open ground at the top of the hill-- where the three roads meet?"
35587You mean the place where some blood was found?
35587You mean the storm of that name?
35587You mean to say my daughter has been here?
35587You meant--?
35587You must ha''been dreemin?
35587You never hunt on horseback, I believe?
35587You promise it?
35587You said you could easily do it, if there was any Indian trouble going on?
35587You saw me, then?
35587You saw the body?
35587You saw the chase then?
35587You say none ob dem gen''l''m you care for? 35587 You see that, major?"
35587You see, gentlemen, the ball is still in the animal''s body? 35587 You think that he and my cousin crossed here together?"
35587You think you might discover some traces?
35587You think, with my hair upon your head, you would be invincible among the men?
35587You use it with great skill? 35587 You wanted to be alone?"
35587You will not marry me then?
35587You will not refuse me now?
35587You wish me to speak further?
35587You''ll admit,rejoined Crossman, of the Rifles,"that the circumstances are strong against him?
35587You''ll have something to eat? 35587 You''re not afraid, ai n''t you?"
35587You''ve lost the way, Cash?
35587You''ve lost the way, nephew?
35587You, major?
35587You,_ alannah_? 35587 You?"
35587You?
35587You_ air_ in a hurry? 35587 Your father may be alarmed by your long absence?
35587Your fellow tenant of the jacale might not like being intruded upon by visitors-- more especially a stranger?
35587Your foster- brother?
35587Yur good to keep a seecret, Maje? 35587 _ Have you anything to say why sentence of death should not be pronounced upon you_?"
35587_ Is_ it the masther? 35587 _ Quien sabe_?"
35587_ Quien sabe_?
35587_ Quien sale_? 35587 _ Si, senor-- si_--yes, of Don Mauricio Zyerral, this the-- house?"
35587` Yis''again? 35587 ''Tain''t so durnation eezy to kill turkey gobbler arter sun- up, wi''a clamjamferry like this comin''clost upon a fellur''s heels? 35587 ''Tis the third time I''ve seen her passing within this week? 35587 ''Twas a trick got up to try us!--perhaps himself in sight, a witness of our disgraceful flight? 35587 ''tain''t Mass''Tump--''t use to fotch de ven''son an de turkey gobbla to de ole plantashun? 35587 A real rude hut, you say?
35587A simple promise would scarce be sufficient in a crisis like that?
35587A solicitude like that shown for him by the Mexican senora, could scarce spring from simple friendship?
35587A thief?"
35587After all he might have been misinformed?
35587After all, what can Zeb Stump say, or do?
35587After that, where should the assassins be sought for?
35587Ah, then; what would life be to me?
35587Air ye in airnest, nigger?"
35587Alone?"
35587Am I right, senora?
35587Am I to be turned adrift upon the prairie, or shut up in a convent?
35587Am I to take it as a type of this still untraced destiny?"
35587Am I to tell the old gentleman what I think o''t?"
35587Am I to tell_ him_?"
35587An fwhat''s afther them?
35587An fwhere is she now?"
35587An unexpected sight: who could have looked for human being in such a place?
35587An''fwhat div yez think I''ve heerd Owld Duffer talkin''about below?"
35587An''now, as ye know it, what air to hinder you from ridin''past it agin; and follering the trail o''the maars back''ard?
35587An''supposin''I wuz to say yis, fwhat ud yez be afther wantin''wid him?"
35587An''where cyan the masther be, if it was n''t him?
35587An''why air the big gate shet an barred-- in the middle o''breakfist time?
35587An''why shed he have dud it?
35587An''yit, who knows?
35587And after all, there may be nothing to be known?
35587And did n''t he forget to take it?
35587And the woman-- this Mexican-- Isidora?
35587And then what must follow?
35587And then-- what then?
35587And this you call justice?
35587And were you able to tell by that?"
35587And where, and when, did you hear it?"
35587And where, may I ask?"
35587And who could this man be?
35587And why not?"
35587And why should she have interposed to save him-- him, the murderer of my son-- her own brother?
35587And why this?"
35587And why was she riding at such a perilous pace?
35587And why, pray, do you grieve about that?"
35587And why?
35587And will God permit this red- handed ruffian to escape?
35587Another letter?"
35587Anywhere near where we''ve been to- day?"
35587Are his wounds of a dangerous nature?"
35587Are not the Comanches_ en paz_ at present?
35587Are they still continuing on?
35587Are they to be pursued?
35587Are ye ready?"
35587Are ye riddy?"
35587Are you desirous of hearing them?"
35587Arrah now me honey; fwhat ud be the use av consalin''it?
35587Arrah, now, fhwat''s the use av yer stayin''here, wastin''the best part av yer days in doin''nothin''?
35587Arrah, now;_ you_ would n''t be afther havin''a little flask upon yer sweet silf?
35587At this hour?
35587At this season they herd together, and keep apart from the horses; unless when--""When what?"
35587Av coorse they hav, else fwhy is it not in its place?
35587Being up there, how could I avoid seeing you as you passed-- that is, so long as you were not under_ the shade of the acacias_?"
35587Besides fwhat ud be the use?
35587Besides, it wudn''t be raal honest av me to take it widout lave-- wud it, Tara?"
35587Besides, what can I say myself-- the only witness?
35587But did you follow them to-- to-- how far did you follow them?"
35587But did you say you have heard of the animal-- I mean since you left us?"
35587But how did you know of this place?
35587But if he_ should_ come at that time,_ you_ detain him-- won''t you?"
35587But tell me what has caused it?
35587But the man-- the rider?
35587But the man-- what was he doing?
35587But the mare?
35587But to what end?
35587But to what purpose?
35587But true: I think I''ve heard you say you prefer that sort of thing?"
35587But what could that thing have meant?
35587But what of that?
35587But what signify ten miles?
35587But what were you going to say?
35587But what would you have me do?"
35587But when?
35587But who air the young gen''leman yur speakin''o''?
35587But who could have done it?
35587But who do ye_ think_ it war?
35587But who is the lucky individual who accomplished the capture?"
35587But why is Louise Poindexter there-- alone-- unaccompanied by white or black, by relative or slave?
35587But why is he still absent?
35587But why shed it temp him to the killin''o''her brother?
35587But why should Henry Poindexter have been excited too?
35587But your mount?
35587But, Miss Poindexter, may I ask how you knew that I have been this way at all?"
35587By keeping to the former, he might find out much; but by changing to the latter he might learn more?
35587By my faith, I''m in a serious scrape?
35587By whom?"
35587Can I?"
35587Can any one have told him?
35587Can any one suggest what it is to be?"
35587Can it be that she is taken?
35587Can it be the red- skinned marauders?
35587Can it be, that she has been overtaken and captured?
35587Can the charge be true?
35587Can we do nothing to avoid it?"
35587Can we do so?"
35587Can you explain, Louise?"
35587Clinging to her tail?
35587Could it be Louise Poindexter?
35587Could it be the young Creole-- the cousin of his direst enemy as well as his reputed sweetheart?
35587Could the lady have ridden out to meet him, or Maurice gone in?
35587Could there be a doubt of it?
35587D''you s''pose any man o''sense believes in sech varmint as them?
35587Dan Marryshow?
35587Daylight?
35587De ole massr, or de young''un?"
35587Dear Zeb, you promise me?"
35587Did I not tell you to go home?
35587Did any one know where the horse- hunter had his home?
35587Did he tell ye o''nothin''else he seed hyur?"
35587Did he wish to show his zeal by going alone?
35587Did n''t I cut the pisen out, soon''s I killed the critter, by cuttin''off o''its head?"
35587Did n''t I fill it for Masther Maurice to take wid him the last time he went to the sittlements?
35587Did n''t I tell yez there was another snake?
35587Did n''t yez save her life into the bargain?"
35587Did n''t yez see nothin''av a wuman, Miss Pointdixther?"
35587Did some one say, name?
35587Did you ever see anything so beautiful as she is, Phelim-- I mean in the way of horseflesh?"
35587Did you hear him state any?"
35587Did you?"
35587Did your vaqueros get close enough to know what it was?"
35587Div yez mane a rattle- snake?"
35587Div yez mane is for the same now?
35587Div yez mane that it''s dangerous?"
35587Do n''t I till ye that the masther''s in bid?"
35587Do n''t ye see them thur bruises on the grass?"
35587Do n''t ye see thur toe- marks, both on this side an the t''other?
35587Do n''t yez think so, Tara?"
35587Do n''t yez, misthress?"
35587Do n''t you see a coal- black cloud spreading over the sky?
35587Do n''t you think so, Miss Poindexter?"
35587Do not tell me that he is ill?"
35587Do you expect to meet any one there?"
35587Do you know if she has often visited him?"
35587Do you know that we''ve been chased by a drove of wild steeds, and had actually to ride for our lives?"
35587Do you mean it?"
35587Do you mean to say that the despatch- rider-- if he be one-- is leading us into-- into an ambuscade?"
35587Do you not know me?
35587Do you see anything there?"
35587Do you speak the truth,_ nor capitan_?"
35587Do you think she can carry you over--""Over what, sir?"
35587Do you wish me to intercede, and make up your quarrel with Pluto?"
35587Do you?"
35587Does he knew that we have met?"
35587Drunk, or dreaming?
35587Entiende, V_?"
35587Even if going in the direction of the doubtful streamlet, he might never succeed in reaching it?
35587Even if he should not succeed in concealing himself within the thicket, who is there to overtake him?
35587Father of fifty years old, why reason in this foolish fashion?
35587Fetch them to your feet?
35587Fetch whom?"
35587Fo what you ask, Mass Tump?"
35587For the latter, who ever really loved that cared a straw for class, or caste?
35587For what div yez want me to do that?"
35587For what do you ask forgiveness?"
35587For what purpose?
35587For what reason should the young fellow be leading us astray?"
35587For what reason?"
35587For what reezun?
35587For what, nephew?"
35587For what?"
35587For what?"
35587Freshly killed, he appears?
35587Further proofs?"
35587Fust place what do ye make o''the young fellur bein''wownded hisself?
35587Ghost it could not be; flesh and bones I grasped myself; so did Vicente on the other side?
35587Go to slape agane?
35587Gone, yez say?
35587Gratitude do n''t get out of its bed in the middle of the night-- to keep appointments at the bottom of a garden?
35587Grief-- fear-- jealousy-- what must be the state of the soul in which these emotions are co- existent?
35587Had he been only restrained by the presence of his sister from attacking me?
35587Had she grown fonder of the society of her Texan relatives-- fonder as they grew older?
35587Had they killed one another?
35587Hain''t ye seed thet afore, ye greenhorn?
35587Hain''t yo forgot to fetch yur head wi ye?"
35587Has any one else been to this place?"
35587Has he taken advantage of your-- your-- unfortunate passion?"
35587Has it bitten him?"
35587Has it left any, I wonder?"
35587Has met with some misfortune?
35587Has she who addressed it succumbed to the pursuer?
35587Has some other had the offer, and earned the thousand dollars?
35587Has the whole day been a dream?
35587Has there been a quarrel with any one?"
35587Have I spoken like one who jests?"
35587Have a little sugar, or honey, along with it?"
35587Have n''t you met a woman astride a grey horse?"
35587Have you any names here?
35587Have you ever been in a hunting- field, at home, with riding habits trailing the sward, and plumed hats proudly nodding around you?
35587Have you got any?"
35587Have you heard anything of the pretty creature?"
35587Have you heard anything, miss?"
35587Have you made any discovery in this queer affair?
35587Have you nothing more to communicate?"
35587Have you seen a ghost?"
35587Have_ you_ a house?"
35587He could not be sure of their not burning his fingers-- those queer cards?
35587He is riding at the rate of twenty to the hour; and in half an hour he may find shelter in the chapparal?
35587He looks as if you had been riding a long race-- like ourselves?"
35587He may be in some poor place-- perhaps uncourteously treated-- perhaps neglected?
35587He may have ridden out again?
35587He may not come?
35587He may not have any delicacies-- such as an invalid stands in need of?
35587He might capture the Headless Horseman, and ascertain from_ him_ the why and wherefore of his wild wanderings?
35587He might not be going in the right direction?
35587He rud out somewhar, and the hoss kim back''ithout him?
35587He s a snake bit ye?"
35587He saw me in company with-- Can it be that?
35587He sed, that his life moight depend upon it?
35587He sees them; but what of that?
35587He''s at home, ai n''t he?"
35587He''s near enough for your_ escopette_, is he not?"
35587He''s only the girl''s cousin, you say?"
35587He_ is_ in earnest, else why that row in the stable?
35587He_ may_ be in his room?
35587Henry thrown from his horse?
35587Her beauty may have lost some of its bloom?"
35587Her father-- can he?
35587Her name is--""Is?"
35587Here goes?"
35587Hev they gone that way agin?"
35587His case might not be so hopeless?
35587His fingers were fearfully lacerated in the act; but what mattered that, when weighed against the life of his beloved master?
35587His head cut off?"
35587His rival will soon be no more; but what matters it?
35587His wounds-- they are not dangerous?"
35587His''n I serpose?
35587Hiv yez any about ye?"
35587How air it to be done?
35587How am I to git his feet up?"
35587How am I to lit yez know, if you''re beyant hearin''av me voice?
35587How are they to find their way?
35587How are we to live, if the gun goes?"
35587How came I into it?
35587How came the cousin of Louise Poindexter to be astir at that late hour of the night, or, as it was now, the earliest of the morning?
35587How come you to be here?
35587How could I have remained in ignorance of it?
35587How could it be otherwise, with such a sorrow at her heart?
35587How do you live?
35587How fur d''ye reck''n?"
35587How had El Coyote got hold of it?
35587How is he?
35587How is she to know that their intent is not hostile?
35587How long do it take him to put on a kupple?"
35587How long since I saw it first?
35587How long was it to continue?
35587How long''s it since he shod any o''yourn?"
35587How much did Don Miguel pay you for your treason?"
35587How on earth can you know all that?"
35587How shall I explain it?
35587How the hell could they have come into the possession of the other?"
35587How then should he have prepared such an infernal surprise?
35587How thin?"
35587How was it to terminate?
35587How was the engagement to be given?
35587How, Zeb?"
35587How, Zeb?"
35587How?
35587How?"
35587I can speak to you in Spanish, if you prefer it; but I dare say you will understand me better in English: which, I presume, is your native tongue?"
35587I do n''t see him nowhar''beout the premises; an I reck''n he ai n''t rud out, seein''as the sorrel''s hyur?"
35587I fear you are taking leave of your senses, or have left them behind you in Louisiana?
35587I have no longer a son?"
35587I hope there''s nothing--""The matther wid him, yez wur goin''to say?
35587I hope they hain''t--""Have n''t what?"
35587I hope thur hain''t nuthin''gone astray?"
35587I know not how I shall ever be able to reciprocate your kindness?"
35587I know the worthless wretch that''s driven you to this denial--""Who?"
35587I liked him from the first-- you know I did?
35587I mean it-- before this time_ to- morrow_, you shall stand in the witness- box?"
35587I must have been aslape, an dhramin?
35587I never told you I did-- did I?"
35587I presume I have guessed aright: you meant the Indians?"
35587I reckon we can cross a piece of scorched prairie, without wheel- marks to guide us?
35587I said brown sherry, did n''t I?"
35587I suppose a man must n''t fight, however much aggrieved, without first obtaining a licence from Major Ringwood?
35587I suppose the horse has his head upon him?
35587I suppose there is a question about that?"
35587I suppose we can travel over a black prairie, as safely as a green one?
35587I suppose you understand me?"
35587I think I saw a jar inside, that''s intended to go?"
35587I think you said you would prefer whisky?"
35587I was beginning to be alarmed about--""About what, sir?"
35587I wonder if he hev left any o''the licker?
35587I wonder what has become of Zeb Stump?"
35587I wondher now if them Indyins has come acrass av the dimmyjan?
35587I''ve been told that the Mexicans commence almost in childhood; that that is why they attain to such wonderful skill?"
35587If I kill him?
35587If he could but overhear what they were saying?
35587If it be he, why should he be going that way?"
35587If not she, who else could it be?
35587If not, what was her motive?
35587If not, what was it?
35587If she has caused humiliation to the woman she hates, along with it she may have brought ruin upon the man whom she loves?
35587If the former, was Don Silvio aware of it?
35587If the latter, was he at home-- an approving party to the assignation?
35587If there has, owld dog, fwhat''ud become av you an me?
35587If there was that--""You have not heard the news, then?"
35587If there''s anything asthray wid me imaginashun, fhwat is it that''s gone wrong wid your own?
35587If these_ men_--_Los Reguladores_--the dreaded judges I''ve heard of-- if they should find him guilty, where may it end?
35587If you have any doubts, had you not better abandon her?
35587In all likelihood it stayed not where it was sent, but was lost in the secret recesses of the chapparal?
35587In coorse he hated yur cousin Cash-- an who does n''t, I shed like to know?
35587In doubt she advanced to address him:"I may have made a mistake?"
35587In either case, it might be days before he could use the limb; and what, meanwhile, was he to do?
35587In fact I did so: you saw it?"
35587In other words, was he an eavesdropper by accident, or a spy acting upon information previously communicated to him?
35587In the strife, whose sounds had indistinctly reached her, there may have been a third party-- Maurice Gerald?
35587In what direction?
35587In what way?"
35587Indians?
35587Into the corral, wid the others?"
35587Is he about to unburden his conscience of the weight that must be on it?
35587Is he at home?
35587Is he dead, or is it a_ ruse_ to get me near?
35587Is he inside?"
35587Is it a Mexican word?
35587Is it but his suspicions?
35587Is it fear?
35587Is it from training; or does a horse run faster when ridden?
35587Is it he-- Henry?"
35587Is it imperative you should go?"
35587Is it man, or demon, that mocks me?
35587Is it mockery, this seeming contempt of court?
35587Is it on fire_ now_?"
35587Is it so, Mr Gerald?"
35587Is it so?"
35587Is it something to be alarmed about?"
35587Is it surprising that in such a land women should be found, endowed with those qualities that have been ascribed to Isidora?
35587Is it the hand of God that directs this enemy on his track?
35587Is it the mere instinct of the animal, giving way to a blind unreasoning effort at impossible escape?
35587Is it the way he is wanted to go?
35587Is it to be an acknowledgment of guilt?
35587Is it to prove so again?
35587Is it true that your brother parted in anger with the prisoner at the bar?"
35587Is it true, Gerald?
35587Is it yours?
35587Is n''t there the smell av swate fingers about it?
35587Is she straying?
35587Is she there of her own accord-- by her own free will?
35587Is she willing to have you?
35587Is that all you know about it?
35587Is that beauteous form in the embrace of a paint- bedaubed savage?
35587Is that so, girl?"
35587Is that so?
35587Is that to be the law of the land?"
35587Is the macho coming on?"
35587Is the old maje really afraid of his getting out of the guard- house?"
35587Is the trial to be further postponed?
35587Is there a boding in the behaviour of the birds?
35587Is there a dead body?"
35587Is there any house on the other side?"
35587Is this the thought that sustains him?
35587It accounts for his cold indifference to me?
35587It air the hoss''s throat ye mean, I s''pose?"
35587It could not be a man?
35587It could not be anything relating to young Poindexter''s sister?"
35587It could scarce be caused by the absence of her brother from the breakfast- table?
35587It cyan''t be smothered up in the blankyet?
35587It cyant be yersilf, Miss Pointdixther?
35587It is broken by the formalised interrogatory of the judge?
35587It is his?
35587It might be the individual whose form had just faded out of sight?
35587It might be there again?
35587It seemed a most unpropitious place for playing eavesdropper; and yet there might be a chance?
35587It ud do it no good; nayther cyan it do him any harm to spake about it?
35587Kin ye promise me three days?"
35587Know ye not that some must suffer-- must work and starve-- that others may enjoy the luxury of idleness?
35587Know you where you are, sir?
35587Lazoed in his saddle and dragged to the earth?
35587Let me enter, and watch over him?
35587Let me see?
35587Like themselves, it could only be going towards the Leona: perhaps some government convoy on its way to Fort Inge?
35587Listened she to the voices of the birds, from garden and grove swelling harmoniously around her?
35587Masther Maurice?
35587Maurice Gerald never--""Did the deed, you are going to say?
35587May I ask what it was, Mr Gerald?"
35587May I have your permission to introduce this Hibernian fashion into the settlements of Texas?"
35587May be it''ll be comin''this way in purshoot av them?"
35587Maybe he was about to commit_ murder_?
35587Maybe the overseer?
35587Maybe yez do n''t know that the whisky''s on the idge of bein''out?
35587Mexicano_?"
35587Might there not remain some trace of that clandestine correspondence in the place where it had been carried on?
35587Miss Looey, you so''peak?"
35587Mout it be thet ere individooal yur inquirin''abeout?"
35587Much more might the thief?
35587My cousin, a young lady, betrayed by a common scamp-- a horse, trader-- who would have said a word against it?
35587No doubt you can identify it at some distance?"
35587No, they are not near?
35587Not at the tavern, I hope?"
35587Not in his sleeping- room, I suppose?"
35587Not me, I hope?"
35587Nothin''happened to yur young mistress, I hope?
35587Now, sir, I hope you are satisfied?"
35587Now, sir, will that be agreeable to you?"
35587O blissed Mother, what will become av me?
35587O, sir, tell me, what is the nature of his illness-- what has caused it?"
35587One o''two things it air boun''to be: eyther a bunnel o''rags, or ole Harry from hell?"
35587One who can keep my secret-- who?
35587Only a mile you say?"
35587Only him?"
35587Only say ye''ll streetch a pint, an gi''me three days?"
35587Only the Comanches could have been so cruel?
35587Only the hoss comin''home wi''some rid spots on the seddle?"
35587Or am I mad-- mad-- mad?"
35587Or go on and brave the dark storm that is fast gathering around him?
35587Or had Diaz met him on the way, and forced the letter from him?
35587Or had she become conscious of playing a part open to the suspicion of being unfeminine?
35587Or had the severance been effected by a single cut?"
35587Or how heartily I pressed it?
35587Or is it his tail that is missing?"
35587Or is it the breathing of the horse?
35587Or it may have been the bud of a young love, blighted ere it reached blooming-- by absence, oft fatal to such tender plants of passion?
35587Or was it another chapter of incongruous impossibilities, like that still fresh before his mind?
35587Or, is it only me imaginayshin that''s desavin''me?
35587Or, perhaps, it was but a casual thing-- the encounter of which he had been told, between his daughter and Maurice the mustanger?
35587Or, was it the whisky that did it?
35587Perceiving it, the planter approached, and accosted him with the inquiry:"Is there still a danger?"
35587Perhaps Phelim along with him?
35587Perhaps a second day and night-- or longer-- who can tell how long?
35587Perhaps he''ll repeat his visit, when he thinks I''m in a proper state to receive him?
35587Perhaps it can only be answered by God and himself?"
35587Perhaps it may be a prison?"
35587Perhaps they may have been successful?
35587Perhaps you are yourself interested in Miss Poindexter, notwithstanding your pretensions to be considered a Joseph?
35587Perhaps you do not live_ alone_?
35587Perhaps you will still further assist me by helping me into the saddle?
35587Perhaps you''d like to ride off along with that swaggering fellow?
35587Poindexter to one of the party, who understands Spanish:"_ A jacale_?"
35587Preehaps ye want to see the master o''t?"
35587Pwhat wud the blue- eyed colleen say, if she knew yez were in such danger heeur?"
35587Relieved of this, had he come after me to demand satisfaction for the injury he supposed her to have sustained?
35587S''norita_, who''d have expected to find your ladyship in this lonely place-- wasting your sweetness on the thorny chapparal?"
35587Saint Patrick presarve us, whare is it?
35587Sant Pathrick and all the others to boot, fwhat am I talkin''about?
35587Sant Pathrick protict me, but fwhat was it thin?
35587Sartin the lead struck agin somethin''solid; an I reck''n thur''s nothin''solid in the karkidge o''a ghost?"
35587Senor, what name?"
35587Shall I go back, and dare her to deadly strife?"
35587Shall he plunge back into the thicket, and hide himself from the eyes of men?
35587Shall we move forr''ad, major?"
35587She may yet kick against the traces, if she find the harness not to her liking; and then what am I to do-- poor I?"
35587She was here scarce two weeks ago, was she not?
35587Should he continue along the trail he was already deciphering; or forsake it for that of the steed that had just swept by?
35587Should she make a retreat through that, undignified as it might be?
35587Shure now it cyant?"
35587Shure now, it is n''t wan av them Mixikin girls--_mowchachas_, as they call them?
35587Shure now, yez wudn''t till upon me, if I gave yez a thrifle av a kiss?
35587Shure thare''s somethin''detainin''him?
35587Shure yez do n''t make more than a bare livin''by the horse- catchin''; an if yez did, what mathers it?
35587Shure yez wo n''t object to my doin''that?"
35587Shurly ye know what a maar is?"
35587Snakes, div yez mane?"
35587So-- you''ve let him off?"
35587Some closer tie must have been established between them?
35587Some grand senora, I suppose?
35587Some other shares your-- jacale-- as you call it?"
35587Somebody''s promised him his costs?
35587Something passed between them?"
35587Surely he is breathing?"
35587Surely he would n''t object to a quartering with the Hancocks?"
35587Surely it ca n''t be?
35587Surely it can not be human_?"
35587Surely it could not be human?
35587Surely it could not be human?
35587Surely it could not be human?
35587Surely it is sufficient if he be allowed to proceed with his_ very plausible tale_?"
35587Surely it was?
35587Surely the crisis had come?
35587Surely there''s no danger of his making an attempt to steal out of his prison?"
35587Surely they would n''t have molested me, gallant fellows as they are?
35587Surely to God he do n''t intend making his way across into the garden?
35587Surely you are joking?"
35587Surely you can_ convince_ her?"
35587Surely you have n''t allowed them to get away?
35587Surely you know her-- Louise?
35587Surely you will allow me to give you something better?"
35587Surely''tis as much so as archery, or skating?
35587Surely, gentlemen, this ca n''t be the man we''re in search of?"
35587Surely_ she_ should know-- she who had penned the appointment, and spoken so confidently of his keeping it?
35587Taken with his stylish dress, I suppose?
35587Tara had returned?
35587Tell me, miss; have you seen anybody out here-- that is-- have you met any one, riding about, or camped, or halted anywhere?"
35587Tell me-- is he in great danger?"
35587Texan justice?
35587Thar do n''t''pear to be anythin''arter him?
35587Thar''s none under the blanket, is thar?"
35587Thars some o''the hands air a smith, I reck''n?"
35587That some must be slaves, that others may be free?"
35587That uncourteous start could scarce be an intention-- except on the part of the spotted mustang?
35587That was the danger to be dreaded?"
35587That''s it, ai n''t it?"
35587That''s it, is it?
35587The Comanches have done it?"
35587The Dona Isidora here?--on the Leona, I mean?"
35587The Indians are not here?
35587The Indians?
35587The cause?
35587The cyabin div yez mane?"
35587The dress-- but why need we describe it?
35587The faithful creature could not transport him from the spot; and to stay there would be to die of hunger-- perhaps of the wounds he had received?
35587The head?
35587The horses you mean?"
35587The invalid that lay below, almost under her feet, in a chamber of the hacienda-- her cousin Cassius Calhoun?
35587The mare, standing saddled by his side, might still have betrayed him?
35587The mustanger must be mad?
35587The neighing of her steed has betrayed it?
35587The prisoner is asked, according to the usual formality,--"_Guilty, or not guilty_?"
35587The river must be on the other side?
35587The tongue of scandal takes delight in torturing; and he may have been chosen as one of its victims?
35587There can be little harm in it: since he has gone astray in good company?"
35587There can not be?"
35587There is no certainty that the backwoodsman knows anything of the circumstance that is troubling him?
35587There might have been nothing in it, beyond the simple acknowledgment of her gratitude?
35587There was an interruption to the nocturnal chorus; but that might have been caused by the howling of the hound?
35587There''s but a patch of this, I suppose?
35587Therefore, I move we postpone the trial, till--""What''s the use of postponing it?"
35587They all belong to that cuss arready; an why shed he want to get shot o''the cousin?
35587They are changed, and why?
35587They may be riding to get round her-- in order to advance from different sides, and make sure of her capture?
35587They may be the rear- guard of four hundred?
35587They may have discovered her position?
35587They may have met by accident in the chapparal?
35587They might belong to the devil?
35587They must engage not to begin firing till we have got out of their way?"
35587They''d find his carcase, sure,--maybe hear the shot?
35587Thim I saw too, but was n''t shure about eyedintifycashin; for who kud till a face all covered over wid rid blood?
35587Three long hours, and then what would be the use of him?
35587Thus did they speak to each other, the lady taking the initiative:--"To- morrow night you will meet me again-- to- morrow night, dearest Maurice?"
35587To the question,"Who has done this?"
35587To what was he indebted for his strange deliverance?
35587To whom did he belong?
35587To you, however, it is not so solitary, I presume?"
35587Too well dressed for those ragged_ vagabundos_?
35587Trath have I. Besoides, if I had been the worse for the liquor, why am I not so still?
35587Traveller through the Southern States of America you; can not fail to remember him?
35587Unless that little tell- tale be discovered, he has nothing to fear; and what chance of its being discovered?
35587Upon the instant?
35587Urged by affection, was he going forth to trace the mystery of the murder, by finding the body of the murdered man?
35587Wal, air ye riddy to take the back track?"
35587War it him d''ye think?"
35587Was I really so?"
35587Was he dead?
35587Was her servant a traitor?
35587Was it a change for the better upon the estate of Casa del Corvo?
35587Was it a phantom?
35587Was it a phantom?
35587Was it a phantom?
35587Was it an accident?
35587Was it in correspondence with the form?
35587Was it quite severed from the body?"
35587Was it seen by human eyes in this fresh phase-- with the wolves below, and the vultures above?
35587Was it such as to secure the love of a man so much master of his passions, as the mustanger appeared to be?
35587Was it the Irlandes himself, dead, decapitated, carrying his head in his hand?
35587Was it the sight of the disabled arm, or the pallid face: for the glass had enabled her to distinguish both?
35587Was it the thought that she had been acting wrongly in keeping her father, her brother, and friends in suspense about her safety?
35587Was it this that was stirring them to such excited action-- apparently making them mad?
35587Was it this?
35587Was it, that he feared humiliation by disclosing the part he had himself played?
35587Was she herself happy?
35587Was she looking at a landscape, that could scarce fail to challenge admiration?
35587Was the man dead?
35587Was the scene real?
35587Was the sleeping, or awake?
35587Was there another, who has gone away with the woman?
35587Was this, too, a fancy?
35587We have n''t lost it-- have we?"
35587We may have been seen, and our purpose suspected?
35587We rode close past it while in pursuit of the wild mares?"
35587We''d better keep on arter them?"
35587We''ve come more than five miles-- six, I should say-- and where''s the tree?
35587Well, taking this for granted, you would n''t hang a man without first hearing what he''s got to say for himself?
35587Well; who else was likely to have done it?
35587Well?"
35587Were both dead?
35587Were they at that moment in the woods, or within the walls of the house?
35587Were they listening for that fatal formulary:--One-- two-- fire?
35587Wha power on earth can be appealed to after this?
35587Whar air he?"
35587Whar kin I find Miss Lewaze?"
35587Whar''s he boun''for now?
35587Whar''s_ she_ comin''from?"
35587What air any dung- hill fowl to compare wi''a wild turkey o''the purayra; an how am I to shoot one, arter the sun hev clomb ten mile up the sky?
35587What am I thinkin''o''?
35587What am I to do?"
35587What are them divvils afther?
35587What are they?"
35587What are you now?
35587What are you raving about?
35587What because?
35587What can four Comanche Indians want with Maurice the mustanger?
35587What could be the interpretation of such a tableau?
35587What could be the motive?
35587What could be the purpose of the strange proceeding?
35587What could have caused their scampering?
35587What could have frightened them off?
35587What could have taken her there-- twenty miles across the country-- alone-- in the hut of a common horse- trader-- standing by his bedside?
35587What could it be but Indian jargon?
35587What could it be?
35587What could it be?
35587What could they have quarrelled about?"
35587What did you hear?
35587What do I put the rope roun''me for?
35587What do it say for hisself?"
35587What do yez think it is?"
35587What do you mean, Phelim?"
35587What do_ you_ make o''it, Mister Cash Calhoun?"
35587What do_ you_ make o''it, Sam Manly?"
35587What does he say, uncle?"
35587What does it mane, Tara?"
35587What does it mean, Captain Sloman-- you who know so much of this fellow and his affairs?
35587What does that prove?"
35587What else but keep straight on?
35587What else could he be after?
35587What else could it be?
35587What had all this to do with the question before the council?
35587What had caused_ it_?
35587What had he carried off?
35587What happened this mornin''to change yur tune?"
35587What has challenged the stag to such protracted scrutiny?
35587What have I to fear?"
35587What have you got in the larder?"
35587What have you heard me say?"
35587What have you learnt?"
35587What he did say was:--"You''re not in earnest, Loo?"
35587What if I were to take to it myself?
35587What if he be hunting it?
35587What if he should catch it?
35587What if we stop here a while, and let her have a little rest?
35587What is it he has been saying?"
35587What is it you have to say?"
35587What is it your business, we''d like to know?
35587What is it, sir?
35587What is it?
35587What is it?
35587What is that, Mr Stump?
35587What is this purpose?
35587What is this shadow hanging over him?"
35587What is to be my destiny?
35587What is''t to you what I''m speakin''beout?
35587What is''t, nigger?
35587What it may be,_ quien sabe_?"
35587What ked that mean?
35587What kin he ha''been doin''wi''them?
35587What kin they be?
35587What makes this mustang a ma- a- r?"
35587What makes you think there is?"
35587What man?
35587What matters-- so long as it is innocent, and gives one a gratification?"
35587What mean you, Cassius?
35587What more do you want to show that the skunk''s guilty?
35587What name?"
35587What next?
35587What of her?"
35587What of that?
35587What on earth can he be after?"
35587What proof hez been found?
35587What protection could there be in a shut door, barred and bolted besides, against that which was not earthly?
35587What say ye to examinin''_ him_?"
35587What say you, Miss Poindexter?"
35587What say you?"
35587What signified his shape, so long as it wanted that portion most essential to existence?
35587What sort of person?
35587What the old Scratch can be his intention?
35587What then?"
35587What time air he expected hum?
35587What was bringing her back?
35587What was it you saw?"
35587What was it?
35587What was she like?"
35587What was she to think of that sudden desertion?
35587What was the meaning of that?
35587What was the next step to be taken?
35587What will Florinda say?
35587What will you eat, Mr Stump?"
35587What woman?
35587What would you prefer-- port, sherry, claret?
35587What''s kim over ye now?"
35587What''s to be done?
35587What''s to be dud now?"
35587What''s tuk him thur?
35587What''s wrong?
35587What''s your opinion of it, Spangler?"
35587What, then, hinders him from sinking under despair, and at once resigning himself to what must be his ultimate destiny?
35587What, then, was the_ punctilio_ that restrained him?
35587When?
35587When?"
35587Whence came that horse?
35587Whence come they?
35587Where air_ he_?"
35587Where am I?"
35587Where can he have gone?
35587Where did the girl gallop to?"
35587Where is Zeb Stump?
35587Where is she now?
35587Where is the niece of Don Silvio Mortimez?
35587Where is this?
35587Where was he to find it?
35587Where was the body to be found?
35587Where went Cassius Calhoun?
35587Where will yez hiv her phut, masther?
35587Where would you expect me to have been?
35587Where''s father, and Harry, and the rest of the people?"
35587Where?"
35587Which him, Miss Lewaze?"
35587Which is it?
35587Which o''the brutes kicked ye?"
35587Which of the two was entitled to the credit of the successful shot?
35587Whither go they?
35587Whither next?
35587Whither was he bound?
35587Whither, but to visit Dona Isidora Covarubio de los Llanos?
35587Whither, if not to meet Dona Isidora Covarubio de los Llanos?
35587Whither?
35587Who air the individooal that objecks?"
35587Who are they?
35587Who believes it?"
35587Who but Indians could have spilled such innocent blood?
35587Who but Maurice the mustanger?
35587Who but she could protect him?
35587Who can describe the sweetness of such embrace-- strange to say, sweeter from being stolen?
35587Who can he be?
35587Who can paint the delicious emotions experienced at such a moment-- too sacred to be touched by the pen?
35587Who can say that this is not something of the same sort?"
35587Who can show this, to satisfy the jury?
35587Who can unravel it?"
35587Who care fo''dat?
35587Who cares to play carnival on the prairies-- except myself, and my camarados?
35587Who could blame him if he has?
35587Who could have foretold such an interruption as that occasioned by the encounter between Cassius Calhoun and Isidora Covarubio de los Llanos?
35587Who could help noticing it?"
35587Who could it be?
35587Who div yez think he was, masther?"
35587Who do you say she is?"
35587Who do you suppose she is?"
35587Who else shed I?
35587Who guided you?
35587Who had ever heard of a phenomenon so unnatural?
35587Who has done this?"
35587Who in ole Nick''s name kin be huntin''out thur-- whar theer ai n''t game enuf to pay for the powder an shet?
35587Who is to gainsay them?
35587Who is?
35587Who last saw Henry Poindexter?
35587Who on earth had ever witnessed such a spectacle-- a man mounted upon horseback, and carrying his head in his hand?
35587Who the hell kin_ he_ be?
35587Who was it?
35587Who was the object of this solicitude so hypothetically expressed?
35587Who would not have felt fear at the approach of a destroyer so declaring itself?
35587Who''d a surposed that the cowardly varmints would a had the owdacity to attakt a human critter?
35587Who''d have expected to see you?
35587Who''s along wi''him?"
35587Who''s goin''to hurt ye?
35587Who, Gertrude?"
35587Who, or what is it?
35587Who, then, can come up with him?
35587Why are you not free to say it?"
35587Why did I not ask him the name?
35587Why did he refrain from giving a narration of that garden scene to which he had been witness?
35587Why did n''t they go thar?
35587Why did you fill me with false hopes?
35587Why did you not use them as I told you?
35587Why did you not write?"
35587Why do you talk thus?
35587Why has she thus deviated from her route?
35587Why have I missed it?
35587Why hev ye stopped hyur?"
35587Why is it not carried out?
35587Why moutn''t I git cloaster to_ it_?
35587Why not address yourself to them?"
35587Why not the imperious confidence, that should spring from a knowledge of possession?
35587Why should Cassius Calhoun have killed his own cousin?
35587Why should I be angry with you, child?
35587Why should I conceal it from you-- you up here, who know everything that''s down there?
35587Why should I fear_ you_?
35587Why should his fair companion wish to linger there with him?
35587Why should she?
35587Why should they?
35587Why should_ he_ skulk from a visionary danger, that did not deter a man in Mexican garb?
35587Why that anguished utterance?
35587Why that hanging back, as if the thong of horse- hide was a venomous snake, that none dares to touch?
35587Why that took of spiteful hatred?
35587Why was Calhoun concealing what had really occurred?
35587Why wish to watch the_ iodons_, engaged in their aquatic cotillon-- amorous at that time of the year?
35587Why you no let her fill her belly wif de corn?
35587Why, then, had he done the"deal?"
35587Why, then, this antipathy against the respited prisoner, for the second time surging up?
35587Why?
35587Why?
35587Why?"
35587Will God permit the red- handed ruffian to escape?
35587Will He not stretch forth His almighty arm, and stay the assassin in his flight?
35587Will He not stretch forth His almighty arm, and stay the assassin in his flight?

35587can it be true?
35587cried his master, without waiting for him to speak,"is he there?"
35587cried she, removing her hands, and confronting the stalwart hunter with an air of earnest entreaty,"promise me, you will keep my secret?
35587cried the lady, betraying more of pique than surprise;"you there?
35587d''ye call me, Mass''Woodley?
35587do n''t I?
35587do n''t you see them?"
35587echoed Calhoun, chagrined at the slight effect his speeches had produced;"I suppose you understand me?"
35587exclaimed he in the corduroys, fraternally interrogating the hound;"had n''t yez weesh now to be back in Ballyballagh?
35587exclaimed the black,"what am de matter wif de ole hoss?

35587he continued, with his eye measuring the mustanger from head to foot,"you an Irishman?
35587he cried out in a tone of surprise in which pleasure was perceptible--"you here?"
35587he cried, in a quivering voice,"what can it mean?
35587he exclaimed, dropping both snake and tomahawk, and opening his eyes as wide as the lids would allow them;"Shure I must be dhramin?

35587rejoined Louise, her colour going and coming as she spoke,"how could I help knowing it?
35587says she, pointing over the plain;"you see that black spot on the horizon?
35587she continued,"what is this threat?

35587you''re not going to be scared from your duty by such swagger as this?
35587you''re not going to sleep outside?"
35587you, cousin Cash?
26156''A Mameluke rushed in with a scimitar streaming with blood, and--''''Take care; do you want help over this fence?''
26156''A merry- andrew?''
26156''A new set of faculties called into play?''
26156''About the picture?
26156''All very well by the river, but there''s no beauty in things out of place, like your Louis in Egypt-- well, what was the end of this predicament?''
26156''Alone with Rashe?''
26156''Alone?''
26156''Am I humbled enough?''
26156''Am I in disgrace with you, too, Phoebe?
26156''Am I likely to be in play?''
26156''Am I not humbled enough?''
26156''Am I to spend my life as a steward?
26156''And Humfrey Charlecote has never married?''
26156''And I suppose you have been reading all manner of books?''
26156''And Mervyn was brought up to it--''''That is not my concern,''said Robert, too much in the tone of''Am I my brother''s keeper?''
26156''And Robert?''
26156''And all that grieves Robin and Miss Charlecote must be shocking, eh?
26156''And are you about to head the mission?''
26156''And are you certain that you would find Miss Charlecote in town?
26156''And be all the stiffer to- morrow?
26156''And did you see Robert?''
26156''And for all I never intended to do?''
26156''And have you seen me eating worms?''
26156''And he tells you?''
26156''And how is this to change my opinion,''asked Robert,''except by showing me that no right- minded woman could trust herself with him?''
26156''And how was it no one ever missed you?''
26156''And in the meantime?
26156''And it was to avoid countenancing my vagaries that you stayed away?''
26156''And little Elizabeth?''
26156''And may I have them?''
26156''And me?''
26156''And pray how is that to be helped?
26156''And pray who pays for them?
26156''And prayed?''
26156''And shall you?''
26156''And she has liked no one since?''
26156''And that was the offence?''
26156''And the family are aware of the attachment?''
26156''And then shall we go home?''
26156''And this was all?
26156''And to those that are?''
26156''And was not he very wise, mamma?''
26156''And what did she do?''
26156''And what did you do, then?
26156''And what has he said to you?
26156''And what is bright Cynthia doing?
26156''And what is to explain my absence?
26156''And what will your husband say to that?''
26156''And when is that?''
26156''And where are you going?''
26156''And where is he?
26156''And where was the window where you saw the horse and cart?
26156''And who is to be at the cost of this?''
26156''And would these have made you content to be a backwoodsman all your life?''
26156''And you are not going to lead Phoebe to believe that you think it indifferent whether those observances be Christian or Pagan?''
26156''And you could not feel sure of your Sweet Honey''s welcome?''
26156''And you liked him?''
26156''And you think I can do that by fortifying myself with Miss Charlecote?
26156''And you went on when he was there?''
26156''And you went to sleep?''
26156''And you will write to me-- even when I go back to the Ottawa?''
26156''And, Robert, may we stay here?''
26156''Another-- another servant?''
26156''Are not you going to have an interview?''
26156''Are not you going to play to- night, my dears?''
26156''Are not you satisfied, Phoebe?''
26156''Are the Fulmorts doing a great deal?''
26156''Are these your sentiments, Phoebe?''
26156''Are they coming in?''
26156''Are we highly educated women?''
26156''Are you certain it is so, Rashe?''
26156''Are you crazy, Phoebe?
26156''Are you insane, Cilly?
26156''Are you sure?''
26156''Are you the lady?
26156''As he thinks?''
26156''As your chief ambition?''
26156''Beautiful ruddy gold?''
26156''Because a stranger asked who we were?''
26156''Before you act spy on me, I should like to know who paid for your fine salmon- fly gown, and all the rest of it?''
26156''Bertha,''he began,''Bertha, I have sent for you, Bertha-- it is not possible-- What''s that?''
26156''Bertha?
26156''Besides, having been told my wits would go, how did I know but that they were a symptom of my second childhood?''
26156''Betting?''
26156''Betting?''
26156''Bless me, Phoebe, what could have put that into your head?
26156''Bless them, mother,''said Robert, bending over her, and she evidently accepted this as what she wanted; but''How-- what?''
26156''Boil soup in the coppers; bake loaves in the furnaces?
26156''But about my going to London?''
26156''But all ladies do not seem willing to believe as much, shame on them,''said Honor;''and, tell me, Phoebe, have people called on you?''
26156''But ca n''t I wear a red coat too?''
26156''But did n''t you want to feel like a lady?''
26156''But did you not see how little he was surprised, and how much preoccupied?''
26156''But do you indeed mean that you could think of it?''
26156''But how am I to be strict when poor little Owen never does anything wrong?''
26156''But how can I think of filling up Mrs. Charteris''s house, without the least acquaintance?''
26156''But how is it, Cilla: ca n''t you make him forgive?''
26156''But how was I to know it?''
26156''But is that the motive Miss Fennimore puts before you?''
26156''But it is true?''
26156''But the others?''
26156''But what can I do?''
26156''But what?
26156''But where''s Miss Phoebe?''
26156''But who was here?
26156''But why not?
26156''But why should you think of deserting her?''
26156''But why-- what do you mean?''
26156''But you will write to us now?
26156''But, Bertha, how could you ever see him or speak to him?''
26156''But, Lucy, what can you mean?
26156''But, you go?''
26156''But,''he objected,''what is the use of building new churches in the City, when there is no filling those you have?''
26156''But-- but how can you tell that he would be caught and pinned?''
26156''Ca n''t I make up for it?''
26156''Ca n''t you conceive that a man may have reasons for wishing to be put in possession of the family place when he can enjoy it, and she ca n''t?
26156''Ca n''t you stay?
26156''Can I be of use?''
26156''Can I help you find your party?''
26156''Can not you tell me what was the matter without being sure so often?''
26156''Can that wretched little Cilly have been teasing him?
26156''Can you let us hope that this whole affair came from an affection of the brain?''
26156''Cawthorne?
26156''Cecily?
26156''Certainly not; but pray how does Peter mean to avoid the new field of duty, if he be sure of turning out on the Dean''s death?
26156''Child as you are, Phoebe, had you not sense to know, that no woman could endure to have that said, which should scarcely be implied?
26156''Cilla, Cilla, how can I answer how it will be brought up?''
26156''Cilla, how can you?''
26156''Cilla,''said Mr. Prendergast, at the window,''can I have a word with you?''
26156''Come to see me and my children?''
26156''Coming?
26156''Could Honor treat me the same after that?
26156''Could I not obtain some advice for Miss Charteris?''
26156''Could he really have meant it all in play?''
26156''Could you have believed, Owen,''said Rashe, plaintively,''that she was so absurd as never even to tell him to inquire for our boxes?''
26156''Could you reach the moral without the religious?''
26156''Dear Owen?''
26156''Did Honor make such a liberal remark?
26156''Did Honor tell him so, Phoebe?''
26156''Did I ever say so?''
26156''Did I not hear he was some sort of relation?''
26156''Did Robert consent to Maria''s going to Hampstead?''
26156''Did he leave his card?''
26156''Did he seem in tolerable spirits?''
26156''Did he tell you so?''
26156''Did mamma see her?''
26156''Did n''t I tell you she spoilt the taste of every other transaction of the sort?
26156''Did n''t I tell you the young lady was with her, and the brother?''
26156''Did n''t you hear me, Owen?
26156''Did n''t you sting your fingers?''
26156''Did the angels come and sing to you?''
26156''Did you always live at Lakeville?''
26156''Did you ever know me have any?''
26156''Did you ever play at bagatelle?''
26156''Did you ever see her before, so as to observe the little hesitation in her speech?''
26156''Did you keep him?
26156''Did you know us at first?''
26156''Did you never hear of the_ Merchant of Venice_?''
26156''Did you never see the ball go joggling about before it could settle into its hole, and yet abiding there very steadily at last?
26156''Did you not see the currant wine?''
26156''Did you say anything there?''
26156''Did you say she was in the garden?
26156''Did you try to call?''
26156''Do I belong to you now?''
26156''Do n''t I?''
26156''Do n''t he wish he may get it?
26156''Do n''t they?
26156''Do n''t you know I have the good luck to be a minor?''
26156''Do n''t you think you may, Peter?''
26156''Do not you understand?
26156''Do what?
26156''Do you call that a real experience?''
26156''Do you call that preparation?''
26156''Do you expect that he will wish you to go out with him?''
26156''Do you know anything of this?''
26156''Do you know him, Lucy?''
26156''Do you know what Owen intends?''
26156''Do you mean that Mervyn wants to employ him?''
26156''Do you mean that she has offered it to Robert?''
26156''Do you mean that you have not observed how ill she is looking?''
26156''Do you mean to say that this was the case with yourself, my dear?
26156''Do you never talk about grievances?''
26156''Do you really think so?
26156''Do you remember the hideous muddles of last summer?
26156''Do you remember what she said about the two wills contending?''
26156''Do you take early walks still, Humfrey?''
26156''Do you think I have nerves of brass?''
26156''Do you think her strong enough for the risks of a hurried journey, with perhaps a worse shock awaiting her when the steamer comes in?
26156''Do you think that throwing aside Phoebe''s little services will make you fitter to go among the little children?''
26156''Do you think they will not?''
26156''Do you want it?''
26156''Do you want to try your pistols on me?
26156''Do you wish to see him?
26156''Do you, Robert?
26156''Do your friends arrive to- night?''
26156''Does Dr. Martyn attend you?
26156''Does Lucy know this?''
26156''Does he go to London, at all events?''
26156''Does mamma know it?''
26156''Does she think seriously?''
26156''Does the little boy amuse him?''
26156''Doubt?''
26156''Drowned in the fountain?''
26156''Edie and Reggie want to know if she is the lady that put out the light?''
26156''Eh?
26156''Eh?''
26156''Eh?''
26156''Ever since when?''
26156''For my sake, or theirs?''
26156''For us all?''
26156''Forgive_ you_?''
26156''Going away?''
26156''Going on well, I trust?
26156''Going out as a governess?
26156''Going to do it out of sight?''
26156''Ha?''
26156''Had the man been written to?''
26156''Had you not heard?
26156''Happy wife?''
26156''Harm?
26156''Has Robert, then?''
26156''Has he any expectations?''
26156''Has he had advice?''
26156''Has it been a comfort to her?
26156''Has no one thought it worth while to tell you?''
26156''Has she never been sensible?''
26156''Hastings must have learnt by some means that the speculation was not what he had imagined; for though he met her at Paddington--''''He did?''
26156''Have n''t I?
26156''Have you a subscription list?''
26156''Have you been awake long?''
26156''Have you been playing any tricks?''
26156''Have you brought the pig''s wool?''
26156''Have you called?''
26156''Have you considered?
26156''Have you ever seen anything in London?''
26156''Have you got through your shopping?''
26156''Have you made out how she passed the last two days?''
26156''Have you not been telling this young lady that a gentleman has been asking after us, and desiring to be informed what route we intended to take?''
26156''Have you not learnt that whatever he dislikes she forwards?''
26156''Have you seen her?''
26156''Have you spoken to her?''
26156''He call Derval to account for all the tricks of his fiddlers and singers?
26156''He did n''t tell you he had taken a vow of celibacy?''
26156''He does not expect them to give him the living?
26156''He has told you?
26156''He is a very excellent man,''began bewildered Honor;''but I can not understand--''''His oddity?
26156''He says nothing of a change?''
26156''Her decision of what you are to be?''
26156''Her spirits?''
26156''Hit off at last, is n''t it, aunt?
26156''Home?
26156''Honey, Honeypots,''and a pull at her hand when she did not immediately attend,''why do n''t the little crabs get black legs like mine?''
26156''How am I to speak, Lucy,''said Honora,''if you come with the avowed intention of disregarding what I say?''
26156''How can I help it, when I see you throwing away happiness-- welfare-- the good opinion of all your friends?''
26156''How can that be?
26156''How can you be so silly?
26156''How can you expect trust when you go beyond the bounds of discretion?''
26156''How can you, on such a day as this, with the air, as it were, loaded with cheiranthus smell?
26156''How could any one have been so cruel as to utter such a horrible presage?''
26156''How could you bear it?''
26156''How could you know it?''
26156''How could you tell that?''
26156''How could you think of anything else?''
26156''How could you?
26156''How did he manage to give no suspicion?
26156''How did you come to think of it?''
26156''How did you get on with the backwoodsman, Phoebe?''
26156''How did you spend the evening?''
26156''How do I know what he thinks?''
26156''How do you get on with them?''
26156''How do you know what good use I may make of my opportunities?''
26156''How is she?--where is she?''
26156''How long has this been going on?''
26156''How much do you think I have touched of that?
26156''How now?''
26156''How old is he?''
26156''How old is he?''
26156''How old is your daughter?''
26156''How on earth did you know about them?''
26156''How recently?''
26156''How shall I convince you?''
26156''How should I?''
26156''How soon shall you be sufficiently repaired for a start, Ratia?''
26156''How was he?''
26156''How was it, my dear?''
26156''How?''
26156''Humfrey Charlecote, my dear?
26156''I am afraid your colonial education translated that into pounds s. d.''''Then you are not poor?''
26156''I beg your pardon, a sign of what?''
26156''I believe you know,''she said,''that I have no nearer relation than yourself?''
26156''I have heard Lolly plays as deeply as Charles, does not she?
26156''I honour your motives; but would n''t it be for the convenience of all parties, if you took_ Punch''s_ celebrated advice--"don''t"?''
26156''I know you''ll oblige me; eh, Fanny Blake?''
26156''I mean, whether, as the person whose decision has the most worth in this family, you are satisfied to leave your sisters under my charge?
26156''I say, Robert, where''s the Bannerman carriage?
26156''I say,''he hoarsely cried,''what''s all this?
26156''I should be delighted-- but is it not arranged?''
26156''I should hate the business myself,''said the baronet;''but do n''t you see it in a strong light?''
26156''I suppose all English houses can scarcely be like this?''
26156''I thought the reverse was clearly understood?''
26156''I thought you called him Randolf?''
26156''I thought--''she said, apologetically,''Did my servant say Miss Sandbrook?''
26156''I wish I may; but, bless me, Phoebe, she is a perfect little nun, and what is she to do with a graceless dog like me?''
26156''I wo n''t miss them,''said Robert, eagerly; then, with a sudden, puzzled look--''Did he send you?''
26156''I wonder if those were ball- room manners?
26156''I wonder whether the Charterises will take any notice of Phoebe?''
26156''I-- I?''
26156''I?
26156''I?
26156''If I am not trusted, what''s the good of affection?''
26156''If I knew it willed to the County Hospital, should n''t I wish as much to be with her as before?
26156''If it be all my bad management, can not it be set right?''
26156''If it is too smart, ca n''t you give her a hint?''
26156''If she had, do you think that I should go back?''
26156''If so, why the secrecy?''
26156''If you did not know it, why did you call me_ that_?''
26156''If you know that letter is for me, why did you meddle with it?''
26156''In London?''
26156''In spite of the obloquy of a poor man paying court to wealth?''
26156''In the time of the Indians?''
26156''In there?
26156''Indeed?''
26156''Into whose?''
26156''Ireland?''
26156''Is Hiltonbury bigger than the castle?''
26156''Is Miss Charlecote aware of-- what has been going wrong?''
26156''Is Mr. Henderson still alive?''
26156''Is Sandbrook at the Holt?''
26156''Is he quite sensible?''
26156''Is he there?''
26156''Is it Owen''s wish?''
26156''Is it Wrapworth, nursey?''
26156''Is it not enough to have one''s throat cut, but must one do it with one''s own hands?
26156''Is it possible that you did not know what I have been doing all this week?''
26156''Is it quite well judged, unless it were his strong desire?
26156''Is it to be at that place in Cicely Row?''
26156''Is it true that you understand me, and are willing to be-- to be my own-- darling charge?''
26156''Is it true, then?''
26156''Is it?''
26156''Is n''t it their work to make people more good?''
26156''Is not this more shame than sullenness?''
26156''Is she come down?''
26156''Is she demented?''
26156''Is she very pretty-- prettier than Lucilla Sandbrook?''
26156''Is that any reason you should go ramping about, prying into people''s affairs?''
26156''Is that the mistress?
26156''Is there an end of all these mysteries?''
26156''Is there nothing I can do for you?''
26156''Is there nothing more that I can do for you?''
26156''Is there to be dancing?''
26156''It is no concern of mine, I know; but what is to become of the business if you go giving away the houses?''
26156''It is not about Ireland?''
26156''It is settled, then?''
26156''It is too generous to be talked of, and these are not matters of choice, but duty; but is it not possible to make some compensation?''
26156''It is very good in you; but have you not troubles enough already?
26156''It must have been a great mortification--''''To Owen?
26156''It will be very cruel to you, and to the poor people, if he will not,''said Phoebe, warmly;''what will papa and Mervyn say?''
26156''Let me ask one question-- why was this explanation never offered before to those who had more right to decide?''
26156''Let me see-- was he the one that won the steeple- chase?
26156''Let the house?
26156''Like a grown- up lady, like mamma and my sisters?''
26156''Like it?
26156''Liked the nasty genie?''
26156''Little Cilly left behind, to serve for food to the Rouge Dragon?
26156''Lucilla, are you distracted, or is it your object to make me so?''
26156''Lucy, have you no pity?''
26156''Lucy; how could you know?
26156''May I come home?''
26156''May I come to see you?''
26156''May I dare to tell you what you are to me?
26156''May I go in there?''
26156''May I go on?''
26156''May I have some white mice?
26156''May it not be to his better feelings like sunshine to morning dew?''
26156''May not I be unhappy if I like, with my brother in this state?''
26156''Mean it?
26156''Mercy, what have I gone and said?''
26156''Mervyn, how can I go?
26156''Mervyn, what do you mean?
26156''Miss Charlecote, how are you?
26156''Miss Charlecote, is he talking in earnest?''
26156''Miss Charteris, is not that a little too strong?''
26156''Must I not sketch, then?''
26156''Must she be told?''
26156''My Phoebe,''he said tenderly,''how are you?
26156''My dear, am I disturbing you?''
26156''My dear, what shall I do with the others without you?
26156''My dear, you noticed the mark on his hand,''said Honora;''you do not know the cause?''
26156''My mallard''s tail hat is odd"go to meeting"head- gear,''said Cilla,''but one can not lapse into heathenism; so where, Rashe?''
26156''My news from Paris?''
26156''My sisters do not,''said Phoebe;''but he told me, when-- when he hoped--''''And now you will help me?''
26156''My thoughts?
26156''Nay, dearest, is not the new one instituted by Heaven?
26156''Never?''
26156''No explanation, Phoebe; what''s the use?
26156''No objection on your side, certainly, so I perceive; but suppose there were no desire on the other?''
26156''No, indeed; you did n''t?''
26156''No, my dear; clergymen do n''t go out hunting; or how could they teach the poor little children?''
26156''No?
26156''No?
26156''None?''
26156''Nor for that of the three flaxen- haired princesses, with religious opinions to be accommodated to those of the crowned heads they may marry?''
26156''Nor this?''
26156''Nor this?''
26156''Not Hastings?
26156''Not Sandbrook?''
26156''Not before?''
26156''Not even the old beech that was scathed with lightning?
26156''Not fully_ best_ yet, is it?''
26156''Not like Sally Page?
26156''Not one message to me?''
26156''Not right for Owen to make full compensation?
26156''Not to be a Mahometan?''
26156''Not without your consent?''
26156''Not?''
26156''Nothing can clear me but an appeal to the fountain,''said Owen;''will you come and look in, Phoebe?
26156''Now my pa is come, sha n''t I be a gentleman, and ride in a carriage?''
26156''Now who told you that?
26156''Now, Owen, are you sure?''
26156''O Robin, how can he be so hard?''
26156''O no, no, I could not leave papa and mamma; but some time or other--''''Is this arranged?
26156''O, Cilla, what would your father feel?''
26156''O, why was not I at home?
26156''Of Moorcroft?''
26156''Oh, are you come home, Phoebe?''
26156''Oh, is she going to help you on?''
26156''Oh, very well; and pray when does he summon you from among the ungodly?
26156''Oh, you silly, silly person, why could n''t you come here?''
26156''Old woman''( his favourite name for her),''do you know what a spectacle I have been witnessing?''
26156''One moment, Robert-- the child?''
26156''One thing more,''said Charles, in his character of head of the family;''should n''t you look up Miss Charlecote, Cilly?
26156''Only one thing I must ask,''she said, presently;''is he well?''
26156''Or did he only make them learning and ornament, instead of a joy and devotion?''
26156''Or if their Ladyships thought otherwise,''he said, with a twinkle in his eye,''why did they not come down themselves?''
26156''Owen, for instance?''
26156''Owen, where have you hidden yourself?
26156''Owen?
26156''Phoebe, are you crazy?''
26156''Phoebe, how do you like all this?''
26156''Phoebe, my dear, are you here?''
26156''Phoebe,''he said, turning with her into her room,''what is the matter with Lucy?''
26156''Poor Cecily, what will she do?
26156''Poor lad, is he much cut up?''
26156''Poor little fellow,''she said, rocking him, as she sat on the step and folded her shawl round him,''have you been here all night?
26156''Pray where did this scene take place?''
26156''Pray, Phoebe, how came you to tamper with people''s letters?''
26156''Pray, in which class do you reckon the Sandbrooks?''
26156''Proposed by deputy?''
26156''Quite right, Miss Charlecote; private pupils are a delusion?
26156''Refused Laneham!--that capital college living!--with no better dependence than his fellowship, and such a curacy as Wrapworth?''
26156''Right?
26156''Robert, where are you?''
26156''Robert-- what has he to do with it?
26156''Robert?
26156''Safe, my child?
26156''Sha n''t I, then?''
26156''Shall I do?''
26156''Shall I try whether he can see you?''
26156''Shall I?''
26156''Shall we come here in the early morning, and set it to rights?''
26156''Shall you sleep?''
26156''Shall you tell her?''
26156''She is all kindness and forgiveness, and what can it be but my old vixen spirit that makes this hard to bear?''
26156''She is coming home, then?''
26156''She wants you to finish Smith''s_ Wealth of Nations_, eh?''
26156''Should not I have patience to wait while he is at his real glorious labour?
26156''Should you live in London?''
26156''Sir John''s daughter?''
26156''So he will get his reduction?''
26156''So that it ca n''t expand to your grand intellect?''
26156''So they hunt you out to be bullied by Juliana, or slaved to death by Augusta, which is it to be?
26156''So you are a great admirer of dear old Charlecote, Phoebe: you ca n''t remember him?''
26156''So you are not grown wiser?''
26156''So you mean to leave me here alone?''
26156''So you were not aware of the dissent?''
26156''So, Phoebe, it is all right, and you are satisfied?''
26156''Spanish place?
26156''Still after your out- of- doors life of bodily exercise, do you not find it hard to be always shut up in London?''
26156''Suppose it were Calthorp himself?''
26156''Taking you at your word?''
26156''Terribly hot here,''he said, restlessly;''suffocating, are n''t you, Honor?
26156''Thank you,''said Phoebe; then turning to her brother,''Mervyn, do you, too, cast off poor Maria?''
26156''Thank you,''she said;''have I made a fuss--?''
26156''That enabled you to think and act?''
26156''That is not required; it is your fate, Phoebe; why do n''t you speak, or are you under an embargo from any of the wicked enchanters?
26156''That woman?''
26156''That you are Humfrey''s ward?--my legacy from him?
26156''The Fulmorts?
26156''The facts?
26156''The goggle or the squint?''
26156''The matter?''
26156''The old lady wanting you to make her will?''
26156''The parsonage?''
26156''The prisoner?''
26156''The rest?''
26156''The what?''
26156''The witch for the lost children?
26156''Then are not you a Charlecote?''
26156''Then had n''t you better not?''
26156''Then he did not give his name?''
26156''Then if you are so uncertain of her movements, do you not think you had better let me learn them before you start?
26156''Then if you have an afternoon to spare, could not we take Mr. Randolf to the Tower?''
26156''Then is it my doing?
26156''Then it is an engagement?''
26156''Then it was a bite, Uncle Kit?''
26156''Then must we lose you,''said Phoebe,''when you are doing Bertha so much good?''
26156''Then she is very good?''
26156''Then what brought you here?
26156''Then what could you do with such a child as my Owen if it were all to come over again?
26156''Then what is to be done?
26156''Then what''s the use of having thirty thousand pounds?''
26156''Then where did you see her?''
26156''Then why did n''t he take me?''
26156''Then would n''t it be using her ill to disappoint her now?
26156''Then you are distressed about him?''
26156''Then you are not obliged?''
26156''Then you can bear with me?
26156''Then you can not come with us?''
26156''Then you could not gain consent to it?''
26156''Then you did not care for him?''
26156''Then you do know something?''
26156''Then you do n''t mean it?''
26156''Then you do not come from her?''
26156''Then you have been unwell?''
26156''Then you know that she cares for you?''
26156''Then you saw Mervyn?''
26156''Then you think he is shaken out of it?''
26156''Then you think he ought not to change his mind?''
26156''Then you think it all nonsense?''
26156''Then your past misfortunes have not given you a distaste to farming?''
26156''Then, my child, you never traced my unsettled faith?--my habit of testing mystery by reason never perplexed you?''
26156''Then, what gentleman has been here, making inquiries about us?''
26156''Then,''with some sulkiness,''you wo n''t be content without beggaring me of my trumpery twenty- five hundred as soon as I am of age?''
26156''There''s still time,''said Owen, with his hand on the check- string;''which do you patronize?
26156''They-- not you?''
26156''This is the reason you tell me?''
26156''This to be sold?''
26156''Thought what?
26156''To diffuse the widest amount of happiness?''
26156''To look at a living?''
26156''To take Owen to sea?
26156''To what point, dear Lucy?''
26156''To- morrow?
26156''Turning you out?''
26156''Was Mr. Charlecote fond of natural history?''
26156''Was he at Winchester?''
26156''Was he like this?''
26156''Was it from his master?''
26156''Was it?
26156''Was n''t it that which your mother disapproved, Fanny, because it was worshipping idols to sing about great Diana of the Ephesians?''
26156''Was n''t it very tiresome?''
26156''Was she alone?''
26156''Was that Phoebe?''
26156''Was that why he was so good?''
26156''Well, Curlylocks, how much mischief did you do yesterday?''
26156''Well, Edna, how are you getting on?
26156''Well, Humfrey,''she said, after some pause,''do you think I am fit to be trusted with my two poor children?''
26156''Well, Phoebe, how do you like it?''
26156''Well, Phoebe, how''s Bertha?
26156''Well, according to your theory, what is her name?''
26156''Well, and is not it more respectful?''
26156''Well, at what?''
26156''Well, but who is the fellow?
26156''Well, but who is the shy man?
26156''Well, we never thought to meet in such a place, did we?
26156''Well, what do you think of him?''
26156''Well, what do you want me to do?''
26156''Well, what do you want?''
26156''Well, what is it?''
26156''Well, what now?''
26156''Well, what then?
26156''Well, what would you do?''
26156''Well, what?''
26156''Well, why not, when she has not had one_ real_ experience?''
26156''Well, you were not wanted to nurse the sick man, were you?
26156''Well; what is it?''
26156''Well?''
26156''Well?''
26156''Well?''
26156''Well?''
26156''Were you not preparing a house for your brother?''
26156''What about her?''
26156''What are we to do if both brothers turn us out?''
26156''What are you doing?
26156''What are you going to do to- day, Phoebe?''
26156''What are you going to sketch, Phoebe?''
26156''What are you listening to, Lucy?''
26156''What are you looking for, Mervyn?''
26156''What are you shaking your head for, Owen?
26156''What are you thanking me for?''
26156''What bet will you take, Lord William, that, maiden aunts and all, I appear on the 3rd, in a dress of salmon- flies?''
26156''What bet will you take, Miss Sandbrook?''
26156''What can have happened to him?''
26156''What can you have been doing then?''
26156''What could I do with such a drain upon me; the old woman for ever clamouring for money, and threatening exposure?
26156''What did mamma say?''
26156''What do you mean by that, Horatia?''
26156''What do you mean, Bertha, by such a correspondence as this?''
26156''What do you mean?''
26156''What do you take me for, Cilla?
26156''What do you think of doing?''
26156''What do you think, then?''
26156''What does Phoebe say?''
26156''What does it matter to me who comes or goes?
26156''What gentleman?''
26156''What had they to do with my cornfields?
26156''What have I done that you should refuse to believe in the feelings that prompted me?''
26156''What have you done?''
26156''What is it for?
26156''What is odd?''
26156''What is the difference?''
26156''What is the matter?''
26156''What is the matter?''
26156''What is the result of your reflection now?''
26156''What is the use of telling such things, Acton?''
26156''What is this harm, Robin?''
26156''What is your letter, Phoebe?''
26156''What kind of impressions?''
26156''What kind of things?''
26156''What of that, little one?''
26156''What of that?''
26156''What of that?''
26156''What should I do with him?''
26156''What should an old distiller know of landed property?''
26156''What sort of scrape?''
26156''What was it?''
26156''What was only a dream?''
26156''What was that duet I heard you practising?''
26156''What was that?
26156''What was the name, ma''am, if you please?''
26156''What were you doing here?''
26156''What were you waiting for?''
26156''What would Honor''s feelings be?''
26156''What would you do if I told you not?''
26156''What would you do if you did not find her?''
26156''What young lady, Edna?
26156''What''s that you are writing?''
26156''What''s that?''
26156''What''s the matter now?''
26156''What''s the matter?''
26156''What''s this?
26156''What, Robert?''
26156''What, all her sanctimonious ways?
26156''What, not to give pleasure at home, and profit by opportunities?''
26156''What, that I was made a fool of?''
26156''What, when you do n''t know what you are talking of, and are still trembling all over?''
26156''What, you pretend to deny?
26156''What-- what-- what''s the matter?''
26156''What?
26156''What?
26156''What?''
26156''What?''
26156''What?''
26156''What?''
26156''What?''
26156''What?''
26156''What_ did_ she say?''
26156''When I knew that before, why may I not know that there are others not in the same case?''
26156''When can she?''
26156''When did you come?''
26156''When may I come?''
26156''When she speaks in that way, can you still--?
26156''Where are they?''
26156''Where are they?''
26156''Where are you, stewardess?
26156''Where did you get that, Phoebe?''
26156''Where does Mr. Hastings lodge, sir?''
26156''Where have you been, you Robin?
26156''Where is your friend?''
26156''Where shall I find one?''
26156''Where shall we go?
26156''Where?''
26156''Where?''
26156''Where?''
26156''Whether what is?''
26156''Which way is he gone?''
26156''Which?''
26156''White comes out hideous,''said Lucilla;''I suppose you would not have a copy, if I took one off for you?''
26156''Who could have forgotten you?''
26156''Who do you think is here?''
26156''Who is it that ca n''t wait?''
26156''Who is it?
26156''Who is taking care of the parish?''
26156''Who told you so?''
26156''Who told you that I did?
26156''Who was it?''
26156''Who, Sir John?''
26156''Who?
26156''Who?''
26156''Who?''
26156''Who?''
26156''Who?''
26156''Who?--why, who should it be?
26156''Whom has he married?''
26156''Whom have you here for mistress?''
26156''Whom were you with?''
26156''Whose voice was that?''
26156''Whose writing is this?''
26156''Whose?
26156''Why ca n''t he come here?''
26156''Why could he not have told me?''
26156''Why did I let it out, and make him think me a vixen?
26156''Why did he not come out to find me?
26156''Why did you never tell me so?''
26156''Why do you call me poor?''
26156''Why do you stand there laughing?''
26156''Why not, poor fellow?
26156''Why not?''
26156''Why not?''
26156''Why not?''
26156''Why so?''
26156''Why were you not at dinner?''
26156''Why, Phoebe,''cried Robert, as the door closed,''how could you not tell me this?''
26156''Why, are not you coming in?''
26156''Why, what do you call it?''
26156''Why, what do you think I found?
26156''Why, what does the child mean?
26156''Why, what has she taught you but the ologies and the Rights of Women?''
26156''Why, what would become of you?
26156''Why?''
26156''Why?''
26156''Will He give me His own goodness?''
26156''Will fifty do?
26156''Will he get it?''
26156''Will it not annoy your cousins?''
26156''Will the man be satisfied with the two hundred?''
26156''Will the young lady take my hand?
26156''Will there be a pony to ride on?''
26156''Will you help me to carry home this poor invalid warrior, Owen?''
26156''Will you look at this letter?''
26156''Will you tell me your name, my dear?''
26156''Without seeing her?''
26156''Wo n''t you look into school, and see how we go on?
26156''Would n''t it be fun to look into a Roman Catholic affair?''
26156''Would n''t it have been naughty?''
26156''Would n''t she, though?''
26156''Would you like anything before breakfast?''
26156''Would you like for me to do so?''
26156''Wrapworth?
26156''Yes, I am; what am I good for but such things?
26156''Yes, my dear; did you not know?
26156''Yes, that''s it, and it''s not fair,''cried the poor child again;''why could n''t he tell me?
26156''You are content, my unselfish one?''
26156''You are glad?''
26156''You are going to Sutton?''
26156''You are going to recommend me?''
26156''You are not frantic enough to want to do it out of your own money?
26156''You are quite sure she prefers it?''
26156''You are sure it is not too far for you?''
26156''You can not leave her to me?
26156''You can not return to your profession?''
26156''You did n''t?''
26156''You do n''t mean that we are going to be ruined?''
26156''You do n''t mean that you did n''t know what she went with the Merivales for?--five thousand a year and a baronetcy, eh?''
26156''You do n''t mean that you do n''t know wheat stubble?''
26156''You do n''t mean that you''ve seen him?''
26156''You do not mean to wait for years?''
26156''You do not really mean it?''
26156''You had advice?''
26156''You have not heard?
26156''You have not proposed sending him to her?''
26156''You here, Cilla?
26156''You here?''
26156''You know the alternative?''
26156''You larking, Phoebe?
26156''You like your cousins better than you expected?''
26156''You long for it?''
26156''You never guessed?''
26156''You show it, do n''t you?''
26156''You think Mr. Randolf like him?''
26156''You think it will be a bad illness?''
26156''You think well of Bertha?''
26156''You went up to see him skate?''
26156''You were married then?''
26156''You will not be of those, my Phoebe, who suffer and are worn by a long engagement?''
26156''You would rather she did it than I?''
26156''You''ll write?
26156''You''ve done it?''
26156''You, Owen?''
26156''You, too?
26156''You?
26156''You?
26156''You?''
26156''Your boxes?
26156''Your cloth?
26156''Your little boy?''
26156(''Does he not?
26156(''Have I?
26156(''Where did she find that grand sentence?'')
26156--in a whisper, not unheard by Phoebe, and affording her so much satisfaction that she only said, in a grave, puzzled voice,''The hooks?''
26156?
26156A few months ago, how could I have borne it?''
26156A governess?
26156A little happiness might have patched me up, but--''''The symptoms are recurring?
26156Acting for my mother, as you will have to do, how are you to deal with the servants?''
26156After all, it could not be, or why should Owen have been bent on returning, and be so independent of her?
26156After having miserably infused my own temper of rationalism, how could I, as a novice and learner, fitly train that poor child?
26156Ai n''t I wretched enough already to please you?''
26156Alarmed perhaps, but certainly not confounded, Bertha put her hands before her, and demurely said--''What do you mean?''
26156All alone?''
26156Alone as she stood, without a tie, was not she marked out to take such an office of mere pity and charity?
26156Am I actually in a room 360 years old?''
26156Am I not talking Fennimorically, Phoebe?''
26156Am I to give away girl, land, and all to the fellow I raked out of his swamps?
26156Am I to pester poor Honey if she does prefer the child she bred up to a stranger?
26156And Honor Charlecote?
26156And as Phoebe hesitated, with cheeks trebly beneficial to the Londoners, he kindly added,''Well, what is it?
26156And did she?
26156And even so, would not this be very soon?''
26156And how about this lad?
26156And how was the spiritual to be brought before her?
26156And may I have a whale?''
26156And must my trumpery thousand a year stand in the way?
26156And now, Phoebe, is there anything you want to do?
26156And now, if poor Lucy come, and it be not too late--''''Did he say anything?''
26156And now, what remains?
26156And pray how do you prove this?''
26156And pray what more am I to do?
26156And then the thought grew on her, why, since they were so thoroughly each other''s, why should they not marry, and be together to the last?
26156And verily, but that Cilly takes it so easily, I should imagine it was her singing prodigy-- eh?
26156And what am I going to do now?
26156And what are you after next?''
26156And what did you do?''
26156And whenever you want me, let me be your son?
26156And where was Mervyn himself?
26156And who could quarrel with that fairy vision?
26156And why are you to be saddled with Maria?''
26156And will you take me to Cilly and the sea?
26156And yet, after this, what right have I to say I_ know_?
26156And you like her the better?''
26156And you never spoke to one, did you, Phoebe?''
26156Another verse, and she read:''Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols?''
26156Answer me, will that content you?
26156Are n''t they inordinately clever?''
26156Are you come to fetch us because any one is ill?''
26156Are you going to join the_ menage_, and teach the A B C?''
26156Are you greatly displeased with me, Phoebe?''
26156Are you mad?''
26156Are you satisfied now?''
26156Are you such a worldling base as to depend for your respectability on a paltry leathern trunk?''
26156Are you sure there was no drowning in the lake?''
26156Are you sure whether he went by Bray?''
26156Are you wet?
26156As it is, my bond is-- what is it for, Lucy?''
26156As to Robert''s folly, have not I given up all that any rational being could stick at?
26156At least he was the child of many prayers, and had not Lucilla returned to her changed beyond her hopes?
26156Augusta, has Miss Charlecote been here this morning?''
26156Ay, but might not, said caution, her assumption of the charge lead their father to look on her as willing to become their mother?
26156Bertha had waited for her sister, and clinging round her, said,''Well, Phoebe, are n''t you glad of us?
26156Bertha, who slept in the same room with Phoebe, awoke her in the morning with the question,''What do you think is Miss Holmby''s name?''
26156But conveyance from the station for nearly two thousand?
26156But do not you remember his carrying you into Woolstone- lane?
26156But first, how are we to put off that fellow Fenton?
26156But how are the two to live together when there is no natural conformity-- only undeserved benefits on one side and gratitude on the other?''
26156But how could he have guessed that she had rather not?
26156But how good of you to come, Humfrey: where are you?''
26156But is Phoebe to go?''
26156But knowing this, and thinking it possible that an undoubting believer might have influenced Bertha, are you willing to trust your sisters to me?''
26156But the three days''fast--''''Two days, was it not?''
26156But what said cool morning?
26156But what were you saying about the Holt?''
26156But what will become of the children?''
26156But what would that entail?
26156But who dried Ponto''s?''
26156But who have they got with them?''
26156But wo n''t that best be done by minding your sister?
26156But, Miss Charlecote, is Lucilla coming home for the Horticultural Show?''
26156But, Phoebe, how could you be so stupid as to go and do all this heap?
26156But, will you go?
26156By the bye, how is the old thing?''
26156By the bye, what do you think of this Irish scheme?''
26156CHAPTER XXIX Have you seen but a bright lily grow, Before rude hands have touched it?
26156CHAPTER XXVII When will you marry?
26156Ca n''t I tell him to catch a chaperon for me?
26156Ca n''t you do it?
26156Ca n''t you see how it is a part of the general disbelief in me to suppose that I come here only for London seasons, and such like?
26156Call it January?
26156Calthorp?''
26156Can you bear to talk of her when you know how you are treating her?''
26156Can you make her understand that Owen is far too ill to see them to- night?
26156Can you not stay with me?''
26156Cecily at last spoke,''When will he come?''
26156Charlecote was his godfather, was he not?''
26156Charlecote?''
26156Conscience?
26156Could he be ageing?
26156Could he be unwell?
26156Could not the estate be charged with an annuity to him?''
26156Could she have mortified him, or displeased him?
26156Could she have refused him?
26156Could that man, who looked so like Humfrey, be thinking how those firs would cut up into sleepers?
26156Could the nameless one be Robert Fulmort?
26156Could we not let him do the same by his lot at Beauchamp?''
26156Could you find out nothing, or did you not think it worth while to look?''
26156Could you possibly have been called Augusta, and did not Katherine quite pervade Miss Fennimore?''
26156Dear Miss Charlecote, do n''t you think, if the worst had been the marriage, you would have tried everything to comfort him?
26156Dear little thing-- won''t you come to me?''
26156Depend upon it, every house in Wrapworth rings with it; and wo n''t it be more improving to have the poor thing''s grave to point the moral?''
26156Did ever a more innocent mischief- maker exist?
26156Did he feel himself lonely?
26156Did he underrate the Holt, the wretch, or was it civility?
26156Did n''t I row them for using you so abominably?
26156Did n''t I tell you I''ve got them here?''
26156Did n''t you get up into the pulpit?''
26156Did n''t you tell us that you had been to see the old party on business, and had spied the hackles walking about in his yard?''
26156Did not the case cry out to her to follow the promptings of her heart?
26156Did she ask you?''
26156Did she know how completely her whole spirit and soul were surrendered to the worship of that devotion?
26156Did you ever hear of anything so preposterous as this Irish business?''
26156Did you go and condemn any of my pets?''
26156Did you hear, Rashe?
26156Did you know that I had been a fast young lady?''
26156Did you meet him?''
26156Did you mention the vacancy at Hiltonbury?''
26156Did you not know that he married my next neighbour, Augusta Mervyn, and that our properties touch?
26156Did you not understand that we set up housekeeping separately upon his marriage?''
26156Did you see her face at the station?''
26156Did you tell him I was close by?''
26156Do n''t you feel yourself in Ireland, Rashe?
26156Do n''t you know I''m the ninth, instead of the nineteenth- century man, under your wing?
26156Do n''t you know how your uncle only wants to do him good, and to make him get well?''
26156Do n''t you remember her darling at Wrapworth?
26156Do n''t you see?
26156Do n''t you see?''
26156Do n''t you think it enough?''
26156Do n''t you think that''s a sign, Miss Fennimore?''
26156Do n''t you wish you may get it?
26156Do not you think with me, Nora?''
26156Do you know anything of those, Miss Sandbrook?
26156Do you know it, Humfrey?''
26156Do you know what we are?
26156Do you mean that you could come out with me?''
26156Do you mean that you have been ferreting out some old scrape of mine?''
26156Do you not like him to make a sacrifice?''
26156Do you not see how names impress their own individuality?
26156Do you remember what a swamp it was?''
26156Do you think I can help loving the creatures?''
26156Do you think I did not hear Mervyn storming like a lion?''
26156Do you think I do n''t know my way to Hiltonbury, or that I should not get welcome enough-- ay, and too much-- there?''
26156Do you think Miss Charlecote''s society will appreciate me, Phoebe?''
26156Do you think anything will happen to me?''
26156Do you think he ought?
26156Do you think there is any hope for us?''
26156Do you think those foreign wines would bring me down a little, or that they would make me low and sinking?''
26156Does Mrs. Prendergast hold the prejudice against pretty governesses?''
26156Does Robin like it?''
26156Does he guess?''
26156Does not Robert say so?''
26156Does not that prove what it costs me?''
26156Does your father know it?''
26156Eh, Juliana, what''s that?''
26156Fickle to her, or a falterer to my higher pledge?
26156First or second?
26156Five o''clock, Saturday?''
26156Fulmort, how are you?''
26156Giving a constrained smile, he asked,''Well, what next?''
26156Go on, Rashe; what were you saying?''
26156Great harm I have done this creature, eh?''
26156Grown old?
26156Had he been taken with a fit of diffidence, and been less precipitate than he intended?
26156Had she been infected by Bertha''s hesitation?
26156Had she encouraged deceit by credulous trust?
26156Had she lived to hear Humfrey''s new barn, with the verge boards conceded to her taste, called ramshackle?
26156Had she never been tired before, that her heart should sink in this unaccountable way?
26156Had the line snapped?
26156Had you time for yours, Bertha?''
26156Has Mr. Calthorp been calling here?''
26156Has Robert mentioned her?''
26156Has a Mr. Calthorp been inquiring for us to- day?''
26156Has any one been putting things in your head?''
26156Has any one surmised who it can be?''
26156Has it made her very grim?''
26156Has n''t Owen turned up?
26156Has the Fennimore got to her old tricks?''
26156Hastings?''
26156Have I brought a tremendous host to invade you?
26156Have I made mischief between you, and put you apart?''
26156Have I not had enough to tame me?''
26156Have Mervyn and Cecily been there all the time of the evening service?
26156Have n''t you seen how Cilly has run restive from babyhood?
26156Have you a watch?''
26156Have you been washing your hands all this time after the murder?''
26156Have you brought the pig''s wool?
26156Have you considered the feelings of Mr. Prendergast or your relations?''
26156Have you forgotten what it is to be under twenty- five?''
26156Have you seen F---?''
26156Have you seen a living creature?''
26156He did not seem to hear, and she demanded,''Is anything the matter?
26156He offered himself to go to meet Owen, but Honor could not quite forgive the''_ Is that all_?''
26156He particularly dislikes--''''What?''
26156He stopped her with''Going to bed, eh?
26156He was too ill to say much afterwards?''
26156He, the unworthy one?
26156Highly proper in the old girl, is n''t it?
26156Honor Charlecote?''
26156Honor to write up and say"the specimen is tame"?
26156Honora sighed, but playfully said,''In which case he would have stayed?''
26156How about the endowment?''
26156How came it to be devised?
26156How can I be wishing such things when I have promised to devote myself to Maria?
26156How can you be such an ass, Charles?
26156How could she, when her misery had been inflicted by such hands?
26156How d''ye do, Miss Fulmort?
26156How did he achieve it?''
26156How did it occur?''
26156How did you find her?''
26156How do you know?
26156How has it been, my dear?''
26156How have you heard it?''
26156How is any one to believe in her fortune if she dresses in that twopenny- halfpenny fashion?
26156How is the old dame, this summer?''
26156How much do you want?
26156How was it with that inmost shrine where dwelt her heart and soul?
26156How was the awaking to be managed?
26156Humfrey Charlecote a wise man?
26156Humfrey, how could you bring me to see such havoc?
26156I am not so conceited as--''''As what?''
26156I have not slept into to- morrow, have I?
26156I longed after it when it was out of reach, but now--''''What, my dear?''
26156I may tell her?''
26156I might have gone in for rank or fortune, as I liked; and how did I know that I was such a fool that I could not forget her?
26156I only did not ask you, because I thought you had not hit it off with Rashe, or have you made it up?''
26156I say, Phoebe, can you bear the burden of a secret?
26156I say, Phoebe, would you object to my taking Brown and Clay-- my two head boys?
26156I say, Robin, shall you be man enough to read the service over me, just where we stood at poor Edna''s funeral?''
26156I say, what''s this about Miss Charlecote; will she do anything for him?''
26156I say,''she added at the door,''housemaids always come to be hired minus crinoline and flowers, is it the same with governesses?''
26156I suspect the principal parties settled it on that snowy Twelfth- day--''''But which of them, Owen?''
26156I want to know if Owen Sandbrook did n''t call you little Miss Precision?''
26156I wonder if I made too light of the line he took; yet what difference could I have made?
26156If the secrets of every guest at a_ fete_ were told, would any be found unmixedly happy?
26156If they cared for each other one rush, would not they have floated to bliss even on streams of gin?''
26156If you cast aside esteem and reliance, how can you expect to retain the affection you sometimes seem to prize?''
26156If you have erred, as I can not but fear, will you not let me try and smooth the way back?''
26156If you would not come and tell us, what could we do?''
26156Is Honor here?''
26156Is it all gossip?''
26156Is it my chastisement, or is it my training?
26156Is it that you want a home, Lucy?
26156Is it the little Henniker, who used to look as if he would dive under the table when you brought him from Westminster?''
26156Is it you?''
26156Is it your brother''s thought?''
26156Is n''t he a beauty?''
26156Is n''t it fun?''
26156Is not something visible behind the broad smooth bole of yonder beech tree?
26156Is that all?''
26156Is that it?''
26156Is that rascal not paying his rent?''
26156Is that the carriage?
26156Is that too far for you?
26156Is there any harm in that?
26156Is this weak?
26156Is your sister quite well again?
26156It is only second best, to be sure; but do n''t you see your own emancipation?''
26156It is settled?''
26156It is very uncharitable of me, but why will he look at me as if he were asking my pardon?
26156It looks on the Thames?''
26156It was true, then?
26156It was, then?''
26156It will be right--''''But''( and a very different but it was this time)''what am I thinking about?
26156L.?''
26156Let''s hear all, Cilly-- how, when, and where?''
26156Lucilla, laying her hand on the victim''s arm, said,''Come, do n''t be nervous, or what will you do to- morrow?
26156Matter enough, is n''t it?
26156Matthew''s?''
26156May I come for them at five o''clock?''
26156May I take him for a little while to my brother?
26156May I?''
26156May we not stay till that time, and spend our Christmas together?''
26156Mervyn, how could you?''
26156Miss Charlecote is not going away?''
26156Miss Fennimore says it is the safest way--''''Where is it?''
26156Miss Honora, when will it be convenient to you to take my account of the plate?''
26156Miss Sandbrook, do you class me among your ordinary acquaintance?''
26156Miss Sandbrook, shall you be far away from me?''
26156Mr. Prendergast, why did you not come sooner?''
26156Mrs. Jones?
26156Music?
26156Must your brothers be consulted?''
26156My allowance?
26156My father''s?''
26156My throat is like a turnpike road?
26156Nay, what does it contain that I have a right to care for now?
26156Nay, who could tell what was best for him after all?
26156Never mind that-- let me hear of Honor-- are you with her?''
26156No one else?''
26156No; lovers were inexplicable people, and after all, what could she say?
26156No?
26156Not dead?''
26156Not given up the old fashion?''
26156Not the married sisters, I suppose?
26156Not the one with the auburn hair?''
26156Not-- Lucy?''
26156Nothing?
26156Now, I put it to you, Phoebe, has she any right to be cast off in this fashion?''
26156Now, Robert, on your honour, has not the mother been working on you?''
26156Now, ca n''t you see that I may want the house to myself?''
26156Now, seriously, my good cousin Honor, do you candidly expect any harm to befall us?''
26156O Robin, can you bear it?''
26156O what is the matter with poor Maria?''
26156Of course he will be honourable about it-- and-- and perhaps never dare to say another word till he has made his fortune-- and when will that ever be?
26156Oh, why did I go?
26156Oh, will you bear with me again, though I do n''t deserve it?''
26156On the very platform, in that moment of bustle, Phoebe conscientiously and reasonably began,''Will you tell me how much you mean by that?''
26156Once Phoebe inquired in a low, awe- struck voice,''Shall I be put on oath?''
26156One of their wild notions, is not it?
26156Or suppose he had forgotten his cover, and then should think the absence of a letter her fault?
26156Or was it a plot of Lady Acton''s malevolence for hunting Phoebe away from her home?
26156Ought I to give you a specimen of my pronunciation?''
26156Owen dear, come back, do n''t you see the mud?
26156Owen stepped back to judge of the paleness, and Robert contrived to say,''Can not you grant me a few words, Lucy?''
26156Owen, what should you think of managing the property for me?''
26156Papa?''
26156Parsons?''
26156Pendys?''
26156Perhaps I had better make it Mrs. Honora Charlecote at once, and get a high cap, a rod, and a pair of spectacles, eh?
26156Perhaps you can bear it, but does not your mind ache, as if it had been held down all this time?''
26156Phoebe gave a faint smile, and said,''What was Mr. Charlecote like, mamma, whose brass was put up the day Robert was locked into the church?''
26156Phoebe, do you still think me as hateful as I used to be?''
26156Phoebe, till we come to the infinite, how shall the finite pronounce what is wrong?''
26156Phoebe, what interloper have you caught?
26156Phoebe?
26156Pilate''s question,''What is truth?''
26156Poor Mr. Prendergast humbly apologized for his betrayal; but had not Owen been told of the engagement?
26156Poor child, how am I to tell her?''
26156Pray what may be the occupation of your more serious moments?''
26156Pray, what would Augusta say to you?''
26156Prendergast?''
26156Ready to leave this hot- vapour- bath of a hole?''
26156Robert pressed her to him and kissed her fervently, and she found voice to say,''What is it?
26156Robert, were you displeased with me?''
26156Robert, when dancing would be one chance?''
26156Robin, do you think we could have dear Miss Fennimore again?''
26156Robin, is it not delightful?''
26156Sandbrook?''
26156Seriously, what damage did you anticipate from a little civility?''
26156Set my heart on them?
26156Shall I advance your September allowance?''
26156Shall I feel as if he would laugh at me for my shrinking, or approve me for my resolution?''
26156Shall I go to Miss Charlecote?
26156Shall I leave a message as I go home?''
26156Shall I meet him at the beginning of the vacation, and see what he can do with Lucy?
26156Shall I tell Miss Fennimore?
26156Shall you dislike looking on?''
26156She flirted with him all the winter; but I fancy she did n''t give you much trouble when he came to the point, eh, sir?''
26156She gave it up at last, and contented herself with asking,''And where do you come from?''
26156She had met the Baronet in the passage, and was accosted by him with,''Do you ever do such a thing as take a turn on that terrace?''
26156She had nearly given up listening in despair, when she heard,''Pistols?
26156She lets lodgings, does not she?''
26156She longed for a sight of St. Matthew''s; and what would it not have been to see the two brothers there like brothers indeed?
26156She must feel that, Phoebe, must not she?
26156She says I sha n''t be afraid when the time comes; but oh!--so many, many faces-- all their eyes looking; and where is he?--why does n''t he look?
26156She turned her words into''Do you think I am doing so-- in a wrong way?''
26156She was sure that his attention was far away from Rashe''s long story, and she abruptly interrupted it with,''How came you here, Owen?''
26156Should she venture a letter to him?
26156Should you like to see it?''
26156Should you object to tell me under what circumstances?''
26156Shouting and waving of hats will never cease, the gentlemen are as crazy as the boys, and what will become of the train?
26156So Miss Charlecote has taken a fancy to you, has she?
26156So when the waiter came up, Miss Charteris demanded,''Has Mr. Calthorp been calling here?''
26156So you had my telegram?''
26156Some of her misery was for Owen, but would the sting have been so acute had Robert Fulmort been more than the true friend?
26156St. Cecilia''s?
26156Still, did the test of idolatry lie here?
26156Strangely enough, the question,''What would Mr. Charlecote have thought?''
26156Surely, having a right to think about you can not do so?''
26156Take away that Robin, will you, Owen?''
26156Taken at once from the heavenly Feast on earth to the glory above, could this be called sudden death?
26156Tell me, is not my brain softening or weakening?
26156That Robin has not flown to Wrapworth and back since three o''clock?''
26156That cousin Horatia, to whom she is so much attached, losing both her parents, how could she do otherwise than be with her?''
26156That the others should be written to?
26156That was what made her stay so quietly, was it?''
26156The balance must not be weighted by a woman''s hand, when ready enough to incline to her side; and why should she add to his pain, if he must refuse?
26156The poor man''s sallowness had become almost livid, and in half- sobbing words he exclaimed--''Is it so?
26156The repentance was proving itself true by its fruits, and who could be anxious because the gladness of forgiveness overpowered the pain of contrition?
26156The wearisome visit was drawing to a close when Captain Charteris began--''Well, Miss Charlecote, have you thought over my proposal?''
26156Then I am afraid it must have been--''''What?''
26156Then Maria, who was unusually demonstrative, put another question--''Are you ill?
26156Then you are not satisfied?
26156Then you did not know he was with us?''
26156Then, after a longer stammer than usual,''How should you like a French sister- in- law?''
26156Then, as he made no reply,''Tell me, do you think my acquiescence did harm?''
26156Then, if I am asked out anywhere, may I go?''
26156There was a silence, broken by this strange girl saying,''Well, what are you going to do to me?''
26156There, help Miss Charlecote in; where can Owen be dawdling?
26156There, sir, are you satisfied?''
26156There; are you satisfied?''
26156They both laughed, and turning to him, she said,''Now, could I?
26156They were man and woman, and what availed his muscles against her will?
26156They''ve cut you?''
26156This is my bonny little housekeeper,''he added,''and here''s a sturdy fellow for four years old, is not he?''
26156To Mary Cranford''s?
26156To Wrapworth?
26156To keep us all?''
26156Very sagacious-- eh, Pheebe?''
26156Vineyards?
26156Virtue or vice?''
26156Was Lucy ever bent upon a naughty trick without being doubly incited by the pleasure of showing that she cared not for her younger brother?''
26156Was he not very glad?''
26156Was he repenting at the sight of what he had done?
26156Was it Colonel Cawthorne, of the Royal Hussars, ma''am?
26156Was it a misfortune to Phoebe to have been so much refined by education as to be grated on by the vulgar tone of those nearest to her?
26156Was it a relief to that irreflective nature to believe the die irrevocably cast, and the responsibility of decision over?
26156Was it a shark or a mad dog?''
26156Was it a very affecting parting, Phoebe?''
26156Was it all poor Honor''s tender softening that took off the edge to our imaginations?''
26156Was it coming?
26156Was it for this that she had risked the love that had been her own from childhood, and broken with the friend to whom her father had commended her?
26156Was it real improvement?
26156Was it the mere effect on her sympathies that bore in on her mind that Truth existed, and was grasped by the mother and daughter?
26156Was it true that they had packed up all the liqueurs?''
26156Was it wrong to feel so ungrateful to a person exclusively devoted to her entertainment for that entire evening?
26156Was not she one made to learn; to lean; to admire; to support; to enhance every joy; to soften every sorrow of the object of her devotion?
26156Was not some chaff going on one day about the heiresses boxed up in the west wing?
26156Was not that enough to go to Ireland and write a witty tour for?
26156Was she humbled enough?
26156Was she only good- humoured because nothing touched her?
26156Was she only making Miss Charlecote an excuse?
26156Was she still unforgiving for Mervyn''s rejection, or had she a feeling against visiting those who had not taken notice of her family before?
26156Was she studying''come- out''life as she watched her sisters surrounded by the gentlemen who presently herded round the piano?
26156Was the letter to be answered?
26156Was this courting him?
26156Was this forgiving Cecily really fancying that her sorrows had been nothing worse than those incidental to a long attachment?
26156Was this what he had sacrificed everything for?
26156We like to be magnanimous, do n''t we?
26156Well, at least you dried them?
26156Well, but the Honor-- the old sweet Honey-- is she her very self?''
26156Well, did you not think of the bells?''
26156Well, what''s the use of having a governess, if you do n''t know how to write a letter?''
26156Were there not thoughts and prayers for another bride, elsewhere kneeling?
26156Were they lilies of the valley for little Mary?''
26156Were they not given us for better uses?''
26156Were you afraid?''
26156What are the Fulmorts?
26156What are you going to do to- morrow?
26156What are you looking at?''
26156What are you talking of?
26156What became of her?
26156What can Mr. Saville mean?--The supplies?
26156What can be the matter with me?''
26156What can she have to say?''
26156What could he do?
26156What could that imply?
26156What could this encounter have done to her?
26156What did he say?
26156What did he think of us for coming here?''
26156What did she say?''
26156What do you advise me to do, Miss Fennimore?
26156What do you know?
26156What do you mean should become of you?
26156What do you think Owen did?''
26156What do you think of Howth and Ireland''s Eye, the place where Kirwan murdered his wife?''
26156What do you think of an invitation to Castle Blanch?''
26156What do you think, Phoebe?''
26156What does that mean?
26156What had she been about?
26156What has Rashe been doing to herself?
26156What has brought you back?''
26156What have you to say for yourself?''
26156What if she had delayed till too late?
26156What is it?
26156What is the matter with her?''
26156What is time to trust?''
26156What is your name?''
26156What made Owen raise his eyes at that moment, just so that she met them?
26156What made every one seem so dull and stupid, and the comings and goings so oppressive, as if everything would be hateful till Christmas?
26156What made you go out in that strange manner?''
26156What made you think so?''
26156What may not be passing even now?
26156What more is there to do?''
26156What next?''
26156What now, what frightens you?''
26156What o''clock is it?''
26156What reasonable person heeded what a young man might have done when he was sowing his wild oats?
26156What right has she to be pining and complaining after him?
26156What shall I do when you have left?''
26156What shall I do with it?
26156What shall you want for the journey?''
26156What use is it to see her as undisciplined-- as unfit as ever?
26156What was it?''
26156What was so natural as for her to go at once to talk over the two weddings with her dear old friend?
26156What was the use of a wise man, if he were not to be let alone to make up his mind?
26156What was the use of thinking?
26156What was the use of trying to disguise from her the witchery of her piquant prettiness?
26156What was there in those faltering accents that impressed her with reality?
26156What was this one doing wool- gathering in Egypt?''
26156What will come of it?''
26156What would St. Dunstan have been minus the black gentleman''s nose, or St. Kevin but for Kathleen?
26156What would become of his wild scholars without him, and who would superintend his buildings?
26156What would have become of me if I had been left to the poor Castle Blanch people?
26156What would she gain by it?''
26156What would the Miss Berrilees have said, where I was at school at Bath, if one of their young ladies had talked of wanting to marry a wise man?''
26156What''s all this, coming in at the omnibus windows?
26156What''s all this?''
26156What''s become of Rashe?''
26156What''s come to me, that I ca n''t go on so contentedly?
26156What''s that worth?
26156What''s the harm?
26156What''s the matter?
26156What''s the post- mark?
26156What, Fulmort, not quite grilled in the Wulstonian oven?''
26156What, Phoebe, taking it to heart?
26156What, have n''t you done that, yet?''
26156What, not now?
26156What, tired and giving in?''
26156What, where poor Anne Acton was boarded?
26156What, you came for the sake of a brown study?
26156What, you, the preacher of sacrifice, wishing to see your best pupil throw up your pet work for the sake of a little trumpery crushed fire- fly?''
26156What_ is_ truth?
26156When am I to be trotted out for inspection?''
26156When are you coming again?''
26156When shall I come back?''
26156When the sounds ceased, Owen looked up to listen, and Robert said,''Still no consciousness?''
26156When will that be?
26156Where are those ivy- leaves you had yesterday-- real, were n''t they?''
26156Where are you?''
26156Where can she be?
26156Where could it have been?''
26156Where did Juliana tell me she had heard of Lucy Sandbrook?''
26156Where do you draw an obvious border line?
26156Where had erst the image of Owen Sandbrook stood?
26156Where has he been all this time?
26156Where is she?''
26156Where should he go?
26156Where was I?
26156Where was now the image of the boy?
26156Where was the heart that could fail of being touched by so long a course of forbearance and consideration?
26156Where''s my little niece?''
26156Which is it?''
26156Which of you two ladies am I to believe?''
26156Which part did you inhabit?''
26156Who but my wise sister and Rashe?
26156Who can be of use here?
26156Who can have telegraphed about Augusta?''
26156Who can it be?''
26156Who could it have been?''
26156Who has been telling infamous tales of my house?''
26156Who is doing it?
26156Who is going to take you?
26156Who is going?
26156Who told you otherwise?''
26156Who would have thought you would be so heedless of her?''
26156Who?''
26156Whom is she expecting?''
26156Why ca n''t I help it?
26156Why ca n''t people let girls dress dolls and trundle hoops, as they used to do?''
26156Why could she not be more glad that her sisters were coming home, and dear Miss Fennimore?
26156Why could she not have stayed away, instead of meddling where she was not wanted?
26156Why did I never find it out before?
26156Why did Lucilla repeat those words so often?
26156Why did you not tell us before?''
26156Why do I believe it only too late?
26156Why do n''t they ask me to go to Paris with them?
26156Why do n''t you build a model farm- house, and let me make the design?''
26156Why had not my father the sense to have married her?
26156Why had she not written a note about that hideous hearth- rug?
26156Why is this trial sent me, since I am bound to the scheme that precludes my marriage?
26156Why should he be left to his solitude for this final year?
26156Why should you deprive me of that satisfaction?
26156Why should you now?''
26156Why, have you no individuality, Phoebe?''
26156Why, of all her many instructors, had none touched her like poor, ignorant, feeble- minded Mrs. Fulmort?
26156Why, otherwise, did he seem so sorry I was not poor?
26156Why, where''s the boy gone?
26156Will Miss Fennimore kindly let you have a walk with me this evening?''
26156Will not she go, Charles?''
26156Will not you be the same?''
26156Will nothing else satisfy her?''
26156Will that do, Phoebe?''
26156Will the next train be soon enough?''
26156Will you be mine, too, and let me help you, if I can?
26156Will you be so very kind?
26156Will you come and show me what to do?
26156Will you come with us, Lucy?''
26156Will you find out what it shall be, and let me know?
26156Will you give me the addresses where I may inquire, sir?''
26156Will you let me go alone?
26156Will you not credit the anxiety that irresistibly impelled me to be ever at hand in case you should need a protector?''
26156Will you not help me?
26156Will you not let me?''
26156Will you oblige me with her name?''
26156Will you stay and keep house for me at home, or be Augusta''s companion?
26156Will you tell Phoebe?''
26156Wo n''t I soon have him repenting of his outbreak?'')
26156Wo n''t you shake hands, and tell me you are sorry for me?''
26156Wo n''t you, Phoebe?
26156Worship?
26156Worthy man, did he think that Wrapworth needed that sight to assure them of what each tongue had wagged about for many a day?
26156Would I have him give up his aims, and settle down in the loveliest village in England?
26156Would Robert?''
26156Would it announce an engagement, or would it promise a visit on which her fate would turn, or would it be only a business letter on her money matters?
26156Would it be Sabbath- breaking to perpetrate a sketch?''
26156Would it be dutiful, so young as I am?''
26156Would n''t Miss Charlecote see it so?''
26156Would no one stand up for him?
26156Wulstan''s?''
26156Yes, but did her dear old friend want her, when these two young men had put an end to her solitude?
26156Yes, you see I know that story; which was your window?''
26156Yet do I repent?
26156Yet how could you forgive his declaration from so unequal a position?''
26156Yet it was at the words of Moses that the king''s heart was hardened; and what was the end?
26156Yet what costly gift could have fulfilled its mission like that one?
26156Yet who would have suspected that rosy, honest apple face of any grievance, save that her partner was missing?
26156Yet, will it be believed?
26156You appreciated his self- denial, I thought?
26156You are both come to tea?''
26156You are coming home with me?''
26156You are doing so, returning me good for-- shall I say evil?''
26156You are not vexed?''
26156You coming?''
26156You did not know that my aunt Holmby is my mother''s sister?
26156You do n''t favour it, Phoebe?
26156You do n''t mean that you exist without pale ale?''
26156You do n''t mean that?
26156You do n''t think God will be hard with me, do you?
26156You do not mean to imply that I have not his perfect confidence, or do you think I have managed him wrongly?
26156You have all the power and consequence here, and are fully master of all; but why should not poor mamma live in her own house?''
26156You have not consented to this Hampstead scheme?''
26156You little simpleton, do you imagine that we distil the juices of little babies?''
26156You made no arrangement for her getting home last night?''
26156You must have advantages, or how are you to marry?''
26156You never listened to him?''
26156You saw that it was earnest, Phoebe?''
26156You see everything, I know; but has Miss Fennimore guessed?''
26156You think you have the whip- hand of me, do you?
26156You were not going to London to- night?''
26156You will give me holidays here, wo n''t you?
26156You will let her be your friend?''
26156You will not desert Bertha?
26156You''ll go?''
26156You''re not getting wet, I hope?''
26156Your brothers?''
26156Your first quadrille is promised to Owen, is it not?''
26156Your friends go to- day, do n''t they?
26156Your nosegay, is it?
26156_ Idylls of the King_''Can you come and take a turn in the Temple- gardens, Phoebe?''
26156a family council, or Honor Charlecote?''
26156and if your papa and mamma give leave, come and see me, and play with the little girl and boy who live with me?''
26156are you cold?''
26156asked Phoebe;''why have you not been to her?
26156because it is not exactly a pretty flower?''
26156but did not I tell you all about him-- your cousin, Honor?
26156but ere she had made three bounds towards him, his face brought her to a pause, and, in an awe- struck voice, she asked,''Robert, what is it?''
26156but if it be his work to try?
26156but she still shivered; then striving to catch hold of the broken threads of her philosophy,''How one''s imagination is a prey to-- to-- what is it?
26156but, Phoebe, if I''m to grieve nobody, what''s to become of poor Rashe, you little selfish woman?''
26156can this be falling in love?
26156continued Mr. Fulmort, puzzling, as he held the letter far off--''engagement to dear-- dear Devil, does she say?''
26156could that have come to anything?''
26156cried Bertha, petulantly,''believe what?''
26156cried Phoebe;''what put that into your head?''
26156did I ever teach you it was not?''
26156did they make you cry?
26156did you not know the living was in Miss Charlecote''s gift?''
26156do n''t you know the feeling of wanting to have one''s treasure all to oneself for a little moment before showing it?
26156eh?''
26156from you who know all about it; but did n''t I tell her plenty about Mervyn''s kindness to me?
26156had she got well?''
26156he is a child whom it is a privilege to train, and I do n''t think I have spoilt him yet, do you?''
26156how came you to think of it?''
26156how did I miss him?''
26156how does he get on?
26156is Lolly really moving before I have softened down the edge of my ingratitude?''
26156is it childish indifference?
26156it''s you, is it?''
26156may I tell Bertha?''
