32875 | ("Is the Master Yusef alive?") |
32875 | ("Who are you?") |
32875 | Adlan answered:"What can I do? |
32875 | At this moment I received a kick in the ribs from Ahmed Wad Suleiman, who cried out,"Ask him how many guns are in possession of the unbelievers?" |
32875 | Besides, who could say what changes might not take place in a year in Omdurman, which might entirely frustrate our plans? |
32875 | For some moments we were so excited we could scarcely speak; but my first thought was,"Why is Bonomi only sent for?" |
32875 | For the sake of three people did not England undertake a costly and difficult war? |

32875 | Having arrived there he said,"Have you not seen my army?" |
32875 | He was sure they would come-- but when? |
32875 | His actual words were,"What prevents me now from throwing you into the river, and making you food for fishes?" |
32875 | His first question was,"Osta Yusef fi?" |
32875 | How could he attempt resistance with a feeble force of this description? |
32875 | How could people accustomed to ease and comfort bear up against such hardships? |
32875 | How long shall this condition of affairs continue? |
32875 | How should I explain Bonomi''s absence to the emir without saying anything which would implicate myself? |
32875 | How was it possible Gordon could be for an instant in doubt as to the inclinations and intentions of these men? |
32875 | I took him to my hut, and after the usual Arabic greetings, he said to me,"Here I am, are you coming?" |
32875 | Idris also added,"By what right should we be ruled by the Turks? |
32875 | Is not even a more worthy object the punishment of Abdullah and the delivery of the enslaved and decimated peoples? |
32875 | Negotiation with Abdullah is hopeless; that has been proved by many well- intentioned efforts, but shall savagery and desolation continue for ever? |

32875 | We trotted quietly on towards this village, when a man suddenly sprang out in front of us and cried,"Enta min?" |
32875 | What could Gordon do alone, against the now universally worshipped Mahdi? |

3233 | Are the other camels better or worse than that? |
3233 | Are they all dead? |
3233 | But,I replied,"why should you disturb the bones of those whom you have already buried, and expose them on the outskirts of the town?" |
3233 | Do you not know that there is a spirit within you different from flesh? 3233 Do you see no difference in good and bad actions?" |
3233 | Do you think man is like a beast, that dies and is ended? |
3233 | Do you think that a good man and a bad must share the same fate, and alike die, and end? |
3233 | Do you use whistles in your country? |
3233 | Does he sleep still? |
3233 | FOOD FOR THE VULTURES? |
3233 | Have you no belief in a future existence after death? 3233 Have you no idea of the existence of spirits superior to either man or beast? |
3233 | How do you bring it? 3233 I give them rain if they do n''t give me goats? |
3233 | Is not a man superior in sense to an ox? 3233 Mahomet, you rascal, why do n''t you answer?" |
3233 | Well,I replied,"you are the rain- maker; why do n''t you give your people rain?" |
3233 | What do you think of the English ladies? 3233 Where are you going?" |
3233 | Where does fire live? 3233 Where shall we go?" |
3233 | Who am I? |
3233 | Who can travel without a guide? 3233 Who wishes to go to Mecca?" |
3233 | Who wishes to remit money to his family, as I will send it and deduct it from his wages? |
3233 | Why has he brought so many men with him? |
3233 | Would the lady like to have a girrit( baboon)? |
3233 | Are they not lovely?" |
3233 | Are you a rain- maker?" |
3233 | As he came rapidly round toward us flourishing his coorbatch, I called to him,"Is that a nice hygeen for the Sit( lady), EL Baggar? |
3233 | But where was home? |
3233 | Can a dead man get out of his grave, unless we dig him out?" |
3233 | Can you explain what we frequently see at night when lost in the wilderness? |
3233 | Choose your course frankly, like a man-- friend or enemy?" |
3233 | Commoro( laughing)--"Well, how do YOU account for it? |
3233 | Commoro--"Where will the spirit live?" |
3233 | Commoro.--"Yes; what else can they do? |
3233 | Could they be Speke and Grant? |
3233 | Do you know, they have positively threatened to kill me unless I bring the rain? |
3233 | Do you not dream and wander in thought to distant places in your sleep? |
3233 | Eh, Mahomet?" |
3233 | Had I overrated the importance of the discovery? |
3233 | Had I really come from the Nile Sources? |
3233 | Has he not a mind to direct his actions?" |
3233 | Has not that fire, that lies harmless and unseen in the sticks, the power to consume the whole country? |
3233 | Have you no fear of evil except from bodily causes?" |
3233 | He asked,"What''s the use of the ammunition if you wo n''t give me your rifle?" |
3233 | He suddenly altered his tone, and asked,"Have you any rain in your country?" |
3233 | How can that be? |
3233 | How can they help dying? |
3233 | How do you account for this?" |
3233 | How many ages had the rains and the stream been at work to scoop out from the flat tableland this deep and broad valley? |
3233 | I begged him not to sing;"my wife had a headache-- I disliked the fiddle-- could He play anything else instead?" |
3233 | I even said to Speke,"Does not one leaf of the laurel remain for me?" |
3233 | I recalled to recollection the practical question of Commoro, the chief of Latooka,"Suppose you get to the great lake, what will you do with it? |
3233 | I said,"do you not see that the natives have no SHIELDS with them, but merely lances? |
3233 | I said:"Ibrahim, why should we be enemies in the midst of this hostile country? |
3233 | If you find that the large river does flow from it, what then?" |
3233 | If you leave no belief in a future state, WHY SHOULD A MAN BE GOOD? |
3233 | Is it very easy?" |
3233 | Is not some idea expressed in the act of exhuming the bones after the flesh is decayed?" |
3233 | It was your own fault; why did you not agree to fight Fowooka? |
3233 | My men were almost green with awe when I asked them solemnly,"Where are the men who deserted from me?" |
3233 | That which was music to our ears was discord to those of Mahomet, who with terror in his face came to us and exclaimed,"Master, what''s that? |
3233 | Then,"If you are not Kamrasi, pray who are you?" |
3233 | Was it possible that it was so near, and that to- morrow we could say,"The work is accomplished"? |
3233 | Was she to die? |
3233 | Was so terrible a sacrifice to be the result of my selfish exile? |
3233 | We believe in the same God; why should we quarrel in this land of heathens, who believe in no God? |
3233 | We had succeeded-- and what was the result? |
3233 | What do you think of the weather to- day?" |
3233 | What for master and the missus come to this bad country? |
3233 | What river- fiend answered to the summons? |
3233 | What was the reply? |
3233 | What were our feelings at that moment? |
3233 | What will be the good of it? |
3233 | Where was El Baggar? |
3233 | Where was the first lion? |
3233 | Where were all the crowded inhabitants of the pool? |
3233 | Where were my spare guns? |
3233 | Which is the stronger, the small stick that first PRODUCES the fire, or the fire itself? |
3233 | Why should he not be bad, if he can prosper by wickedness?" |
3233 | Would a boat be waiting for us with supplies and letters? |
3233 | Would they commence an attack without their shields? |
3233 | You want ivory; I am a simple traveller; why should we clash? |
3233 | and had I wasted some of the best years of my life to obtain a shadow? |
3233 | by rubbing two sticks together? |
3233 | eh, Richarn? |
3233 | said Taher Noor,"a couple of dollars? |
3233 | why he had not followed the Nile to the Luta N''zige lake, and from the lake to Gondokoro? |
41035 | Abdel Kader,said he, confidentially,"I look on you as one of us; tell me what do you think of this Frenchman?" |
41035 | Abdel Kader,said he, when he saw me standing in front of him,"are you submitting with resignation to your fate?" |
41035 | Abdel Kader,said he,"are you well?" |
41035 | All right,said I,"but how is he going to cure me?" |
41035 | All right,said I;"but tell me privately who sent you here, the Khalifa or Yakub?" |
41035 | Am I then known as a tyrant amongst the people,said he,"that the sound of my ombeÿa should always mean the death of some one?" |
41035 | And now, Abdel Kader, what have you to say? |
41035 | And what did you answer? |
41035 | And what else have you against the man? |
41035 | And what is the punishment for disobedience? |
41035 | And you,said he,"where do you wish to go; have you any one to take care of you?" |
41035 | And you? |
41035 | Are you a Mohammedan? |
41035 | Are you going to tell me where you have hidden your treasure? |
41035 | But how did it occur? 41035 But what is to be done?" |
41035 | But what should a Frenchman want with us, that he should come all that long distance? |
41035 | But,said I,"where are the camels carrying ammunition and rockets? |
41035 | Did he also order you to write what you did? |
41035 | Did he not tell you where his money was buried? |
41035 | Did you bring bread? |
41035 | Did you inform Yunes,said he,"that you are going to accompany him?" |
41035 | Do n''t you know our animals? 41035 Do you belong to the French race?" |
41035 | Do you go with me across the desert? |
41035 | Do you not know that he who falls fighting for his women and children goes straight to Paradise? |
41035 | Do you see the broad, gray band in front crossing from south to northwest? |
41035 | Do you speak French? |
41035 | Do you take me for an ordinary man? |
41035 | Do you think that your proposal will be accepted? |
41035 | Do you think,said the Khalifa,"that he will comply implicitly with my orders, and will come? |
41035 | Have I anything else to do? |
41035 | Have you any children? |
41035 | Have you forgotten that I am your master? |
41035 | How could I throw myself at his feet,said I,"and crave his pardon for a crime I never committed? |
41035 | How do you know that the man who has given evidence against you is a Dongolawi? |
41035 | How long a start have we got from our enemies? 41035 I hope,"said I,"that Hajji Mohammed has not suffered serious loss?" |
41035 | I was told that the names of Elias Pasha and Hajji Mohammed Abu Girga are mentioned; is this so? |
41035 | If you do not wish to fight for your wives and children, for what then will you fight? |
41035 | Is not this the head of your uncle the unbeliever? |
41035 | Is your wife of your own race? |
41035 | No; what medicine? |
41035 | Now, then,said the Khalifa, impatiently,"have you made out what it means?" |
41035 | Of what race are you? |
41035 | Perhaps,said Wad Ibrahim,"you are unwilling to fire on Gordon, who is said to be your uncle, and that is your reason for making these excuses?" |
41035 | Poison? |
41035 | Suppose that I now turned Mohammedan,said I,"would my men believe in me and hope for victory? |
41035 | Tell me now,said I, well knowing how jealous they were of each other,"to which of you should I hand over my arms and my horses?" |
41035 | Tell me, Isa, what was the end? |
41035 | That is very questionable,said I;"but have you left a family at home?" |
41035 | Then what does this telegram mean? |
41035 | Then you are for having the man killed? |
41035 | This drink,said he,"encourages one for the fight; and as for our wives and children, why should we leave them for our enemies? |
41035 | Very well,he said,"I believe you; and so you refuse to marry my cousin?" |
41035 | Well, my fine hero, where is your courage now? |
41035 | Well,said I,"you wish to retreat during the night; but what will you do with all our wounded comrades and brothers? |
41035 | What are you doing? |
41035 | What assistance? |
41035 | What business has he to compare affairs here with those of Egypt? |
41035 | What do you say? |
41035 | What have you to say to his words? |
41035 | What is the matter? |
41035 | What is this? |
41035 | What is your name? |
41035 | What must be the condition of an army,he remarked,"when even a European servant deserts to the enemy?" |
41035 | What news? |

41035 | What sort of man is the new Governor? |
41035 | Where are Kuku Agha and the soldiers? |
41035 | Where have you been? 41035 Where is Ibrahim Ali?" |
41035 | Where is Yusef? |
41035 | Where is the Gospel that has been sent to you? |
41035 | Who are you? |
41035 | Who knows? |
41035 | Why have you come here; and what do you want from us? |
41035 | Why on account of my faith? |
41035 | Why,said he, smiling,"did you not wait for me outside the camp, instead of entering without permission? |
41035 | Why? |
41035 | You are not tired? |
41035 | Zeki,said I,"did Mohammed give you the medicine?" |
41035 | ( Abdel Kader, are you well?). |
41035 | ( Where is your master, Zubeir? |
41035 | A wild discharge of fire- arms and cannon, and in a few minutes complete stillness? |
41035 | And after that what was to be our fate? |
41035 | And were not the troops composed mostly of the disbanded rabble of Arabi Pasha''s army, which had just been defeated by the British? |
41035 | And would this year come and go like the rest, leaving me still in his clutches? |
41035 | Are you going to write a letter to the Mahdi?" |
41035 | As most of the workmen in the dock- yard were killed during the siege of Khartum, I suppose you have had some difficulty in replacing them?" |
41035 | At length, the Khalifa approached my corner, and, with a friendly nod, said,"Abdel Kader, enta tayeb?" |
41035 | Besides, do you not think it is outrageous that an old woman like you should have married a young lad who might have been your grandson?" |
41035 | Besides, were there not now enrolled under the Mahdi''s banners thousands of regulars and irregulars who had been formerly in the Government service? |
41035 | But how long was I to continue in this wretched position? |
41035 | But tell me how goes it at Toweisha? |
41035 | But tell me, sir, frankly, why should I be detained?" |
41035 | But who was the originator of this movement which had already been so successful? |
41035 | But why should I worry myself with such thoughts? |
41035 | But, sire, how can I, your servant, take your own wife for myself? |
41035 | By- the- bye where is Mustafa? |
41035 | Can any one imagine that this was a pleasing prospect? |
41035 | Can you find the way alone, or shall I come back for you?" |
41035 | Could it be a letter from my relations, or from the Egyptian Government; and had the messenger who brought it been captured? |
41035 | Could it be that he had been befooled by the Mahdi''s doctrines and preaching? |
41035 | Could the rescuing army possibly arrive in time? |
41035 | Could they have been noticed by some Dervishes who had perhaps arrested them on suspicion? |
41035 | Could they have opposed the Mahdi, his forty thousand rifles, and his hosts of wild fanatics panting for blood and plunder? |
41035 | Could this possibly be the great attack on Khartum? |
41035 | Cutting his way through the first line of Bazingers, Ibrahim shouted,"Fein sidkum ez Zubeir?" |
41035 | Did he think that it was out of the question for an English expedition to be delayed? |
41035 | Did their commanders not know Khartum, and the lives of all in it, were hanging by a thread? |
41035 | Did they imagine for a moment that all these men, when the chance came, intended to desert and join Hicks? |
41035 | Did you not assert yesterday, Sergeant Mohammed, that you had almost two hundred men at your disposal? |
41035 | Do you agree to these conditions, and do you promise to put them into full effect?" |
41035 | Do you not recognise God''s power in this? |
41035 | Do you now expect to gather more riches?" |
41035 | Do you see that stone hillock about three miles away? |
41035 | Do you understand what I mean?" |
41035 | Do you want to leave them to the tender mercies of our enemies?" |
41035 | Had Gordon never been informed of the Mahdi''s proclamations, sent to all the tribes after the fall of El Obeid? |
41035 | Had I better send the horse I gave you after you, or shall I keep it here?" |
41035 | Had new difficulties arisen? |
41035 | Had they not conquered Bahr el Ghazal, and brought the proud Sultans of Darfur to submission? |
41035 | Had they not won victories on the White Nile at Duffilà ©? |
41035 | Hassan instantly turned to me, saying,"Do you still think you are Governor- General of Darfur and can say what you like?" |
41035 | Have they not been tried?" |
41035 | Have you any objection?" |
41035 | Have you forgotten the duties required of you from your position? |
41035 | He duly arrived the next day, and, seeing my three Black boys at the door, his first question was,"Are these boys free, or slaves?" |
41035 | He might well have employed a company of soldiers for this purpose; and who would have thought of questioning the advantage of protecting himself? |
41035 | He then asked me, abruptly,"Are you not a Mohammedan; where then did you leave your wives?" |
41035 | His extraordinary success has inclined your heart to him; have you forgotten all the favours you have reaped from Government? |
41035 | How do you feel after your long and tiring journey?" |
41035 | How is the chief of the district, Abo Bey el Bartawi?" |
41035 | How long did you take to come here?" |
41035 | How long was I to keep up this constant strain of always standing on the defensive; how much longer could my present relations with the Khalifa last? |
41035 | How much was I still to suffer before it came to my turn to enter into everlasting rest? |
41035 | I am ready to do so, but what shall I earn by the job?" |
41035 | I at once rushed up and begged him to allow me to do this for him, but he answered,''Why should I be ashamed of doing work? |
41035 | I confess to feeling a little mistrustful when I thought of what Ahmed had said; but then, after all, doctors in Europe speak, so why should not he? |
41035 | I have not seen him since we left Rahad?" |
41035 | I now raised my head, which hitherto I had kept closely bent down; and the Khalifa asked,"Well, what do the papers contain?" |
41035 | I will bring you an animal to ride, or do you feel strong enough to go on foot?" |
41035 | In another passage he wrote,"I make my notes and write my reports, but who is going to take them home?" |
41035 | In what direction are they going?" |
41035 | Is not this so?" |
41035 | Is she not pretty, or has she a bad character?" |
41035 | Is the house I am to have uninhabited?" |
41035 | Is this what they object to? |
41035 | It was now to be a case of my wits against those of my new masters,--who would win? |
41035 | Master, where is the heart without fear? |
41035 | Motioning us to be seated, he welcomed us, and, turning to me, said,"Are you satisfied?" |
41035 | Now may I ask you if, during your illness, the Mahdi paid any attention to you?" |
41035 | Now what had the Mahdi done, and wherein lay his power to revive a religion which had become so debased? |
41035 | Now, how was it possible for me in a bushy, trackless region, with heavily laden camels, to catch up a man flying on a horse? |
41035 | Now, in accordance with the Mahdi''s orders, I was out of harm''s way; but what was to be my fate? |
41035 | Now, tell me truly?" |
41035 | Of what use was the English army now? |
41035 | Once in the presence of the Khalifa, the latter said to me,"And what is your opinion?" |
41035 | Or do you not agree?" |
41035 | Poor Vizetelly made his sketches, and O''Donovan wrote his diary; but who was to send them home to those who were so anxiously awaiting them? |
41035 | Should we concur with your proposals, what do you consider we should do with him?" |
41035 | Sire, what have I done? |
41035 | Speak, is it not so?" |
41035 | Speaking generally to all present, I said to them,"Can any of you understand how it was we were defeated to- day?" |
41035 | Taking no notice of his question,"Where is your master the Mahdi?" |
41035 | Tell me now what is written on the paper?" |
41035 | Tell me now, truthfully, why you left the others?" |
41035 | Tell me what is the present condition of Khartum, and what are the population doing?" |
41035 | Tell me, how am I regarded personally by the men and the officers, excepting, of course, those who are selfishly seeking their own interests?" |
41035 | The delay was inexplicable; what could it mean? |
41035 | The sun was now rising red over the horizon; what would this day bring forth? |
41035 | Then what could be more cruel than his punishment of the Ashraf? |
41035 | Then what could have induced him to read that fatal notice, proclaiming far and wide that the Government intended to abandon the Sudan? |
41035 | Then why did they not send some Englishmen on board, no matter how few, and despatch them instantly to Khartum? |
41035 | These were the last words I ever heard him utter; but who could have imagined the fate that was in store for both of us? |
41035 | They will trust you implicitly; but will you change your faith from conviction?" |
41035 | This was evidently a most lucrative trade; but how were the establishments of these merchants to be taxed, and what action was I to take? |
41035 | To turn from generalisation to details, what do we find to be the present situation? |
41035 | Turning then to Lupton, he said,"And you, Abdullahi?" |
41035 | Was I to trust him, or not? |
41035 | Was it possible Sultan Harun had suddenly returned and was attacking my men? |
41035 | Was it possible the news was false? |
41035 | Was it to be that of Mohammed Pasha Said and Ali Bey Sherif? |
41035 | We have at once had the man imprisoned, for he formerly escaped from here; what have you to say in your defence?" |
41035 | What can they do of themselves against their despotic rulers? |
41035 | What change has come over me? |
41035 | What could have happened to our men? |
41035 | What could the Khalifa want of me at such an hour? |
41035 | What could this ill- armed and ignorant fiki do? |
41035 | What do those people care about good actions and kindnesses previously done to them? |
41035 | What have you to say to this?" |
41035 | What was I to do with horses, when I was not allowed to ride them? |
41035 | What was I to do? |
41035 | What was the nature of his teachings? |
41035 | What was the use of all these decorations now; what good were all their ranks and honours? |
41035 | What, therefore, could be his intentions? |
41035 | When may I come and take over your old house?" |
41035 | When one''s possessions have been seized by violence and carried off, are they likely to be given back? |
41035 | When will they miss you?" |
41035 | Where is my motto of"Never despair?" |
41035 | Whilst I was talking, Salama had tightened up the cloth round his chest and loins, and merely said,"Where are the letters?" |
41035 | Who can be nobler than the direct descendant of the Prophet?" |
41035 | Who could have induced him to believe that the Kuran which had been sent to me was the Gospel? |
41035 | Who, therefore, in the whole world holds so high a position as I? |
41035 | Why did he neglect to make a redoubt, or keep within the fortifications, the central point of which might well have been the Palace? |
41035 | Why did he not write to you himself, if he thinks well of you?" |
41035 | Why did the long expected steamers with the English troops not come? |
41035 | Why do n''t they let me stay with you?" |
41035 | Why do you not ask for mercy?" |
41035 | Why should such men as Yusef Pasha, Mohammed Bey, and Abu Sidr fear a starving crowd of sickly, half- famished, and almost naked Arabs? |
41035 | Will Egypt once more become the actual possessor of the country of which she was the legitimate owner? |
41035 | Would some unforeseen event frustrate this effort too? |
41035 | Would this attempt also fail like the others? |
41035 | Yet could it be possible the news was grossly exaggerated? |
41035 | You have the money on you?" |
41035 | You remember it, do you not, Abdel Kader? |
41035 | and where are all the merchants and their families who came to you for protection? |
41035 | and would that give them more confidence in me?" |
41035 | said I, in a tone of wonder,"how could heavily laden camels become separated from horsemen? |
41035 | said I;"how could I know of his intention to escape, and how could I tell you that he had done so? |
41035 | said he to me,"or are there different tribes in your country, as there are here with us in the Sudan?" |
41035 | said the Mahdi,"why should you have done this? |
18868 | ''And they lived?'' 18868 ''Are you, then, a hakim?'' |
18868 | ''Bimbashi,''they said,''what will be done about you? 18868 ''But what would be done if they had not that sleep medicine?'' |
18868 | ''Could you do that?'' 18868 ''Is there any place where I can put my horse?'' |
18868 | ''No,''I said;''who am I, that they should come to me? 18868 ''What are the knives for?'' |
18868 | ''What say you, Abu? 18868 ''You are still determined to go?'' |
18868 | ''You have been some time at Khartoum?'' 18868 ''You hear what my son says? |
18868 | ''You really think that would come of it?'' 18868 After you were cut off, I suppose?" |
18868 | Alexandria? |
18868 | And did you succeed in your search? |
18868 | And has any news been received of the whereabouts of the Khalifa? |
18868 | And if a man fails altogether, what is there open to him? |
18868 | And now, what about yourself, what would you like to do? |
18868 | And so you, too, leapt overboard to save a woman? |
18868 | And there are wells? |
18868 | And what are you going to do? |
18868 | And what became of that? |
18868 | And what was the illness you had, Mother? |
18868 | And where do you think the great fight is likely to take place? |
18868 | And where is the pocketbook, now? |
18868 | And you never heard of anything being hidden, before the British troops arrived? |
18868 | And you speak the language of the Nubian blacks? |
18868 | And you would, if necessary-- say, in the case of illness of one of my clerks-- be ready to help in the office? |
18868 | And you,Mahmud said, turning to Zaki,"you are a Jaalin, are you not?" |
18868 | And your mother, do they know anything of her? |
18868 | Are the Dervishes all gone? |
18868 | Are there any Dervishes about? |
18868 | Are we going to put on those Dervish dresses at once, master? 18868 Are you hurt, Zaki?" |
18868 | Are you hurt, master? |
18868 | As his eyes fell upon me, he said,''When are you going to begin?'' 18868 But I suppose he is really heir to it?" |
18868 | But I suppose he might be a doctor, a clergyman, or a lawyer? |
18868 | But I thought that they could not break in there? |
18868 | But the white officer-- what became of him? |
18868 | But there was no harm in that, Mother? |
18868 | But what are you going to do, Gregory? |
18868 | But what are you masquerading for, in this dress; and where have you come from? |
18868 | But why did n''t you go straight back, instead of coming down here? |
18868 | But will they not kill him? |
18868 | By the way, have you heard that Mahmud is captured? 18868 Can I speak to you for a few minutes, sir?" |
18868 | Can you give me references? |
18868 | Can you take me to the place? |
18868 | Can you use a pistol? |
18868 | Could we not go into the camp, my lord? |
18868 | Did he talk Arabic well? |
18868 | Did you hear of any other things being hidden? |
18868 | Did you know the father? |
18868 | Do we take everything with us? |
18868 | Do you give me your promise that you will no more fight against us? |
18868 | Do you know anything about it? |
18868 | Do you know if any remains of that expedition are still in existence? |
18868 | Do you know when your father left England? |
18868 | Do you know whether Mahmud''s army is in Metemmeh, or outside the town? |
18868 | Do you know whether any booty was hidden away, before the English came? |
18868 | Do you remember how long he arrived before the steamer started? |
18868 | Do you speak our tongue? |
18868 | Do you think you are fit to ride? |
18868 | Does he dress as a native? |
18868 | Had they any cannon with them? |
18868 | Has a party of infidels passed along here? |
18868 | Have I not sworn, Fatma,he said,"that I would slay every unbeliever who falls into my hands? |
18868 | Have you a written despatch? |
18868 | Have you been in this beastly country long? |
18868 | Have you come down from the front? |
18868 | Have you everything ready, Hilliard? |
18868 | How about your baggage? |
18868 | How can that be? |
18868 | How do you do it? |
18868 | How far do you think we are from the river now? 18868 How long do you think we shall be, on the way?" |
18868 | How long have you been here? |
18868 | How long is it since you lost her? |
18868 | How many more miles do you think we have to go, Zaki? |
18868 | How many were there of them? |
18868 | How much more is there left? |
18868 | How much water have you got in the bags? |
18868 | I hope you have quite shaken off the fever? |
18868 | I suppose most of the Arab tribes in the Soudan speak a dialect very much like the Baggara? |
18868 | I suppose you have no idea how long you will be away? |
18868 | I suppose you smoke? |
18868 | I suppose you think that the Dervishes mean fighting? |
18868 | Is it difficult to find the way? |
18868 | Is it easy for anyone who has been well educated, and who is a gentleman, to get employment there? 18868 Is it really you, Hilliard?" |
18868 | Is it you, Zaki? |
18868 | Is that all your kit? |
18868 | Is that you, my lord? |
18868 | Is there any chance of getting taken up to Merawi? 18868 Is there any great force at Abu Hamed?" |
18868 | Is there any news? |
18868 | Is there anything I can do for my lord? |
18868 | Is there anything else that you can think of? |
18868 | Is there anything to be done about it, sir? |
18868 | Is your message of a private character? |
18868 | Leslie,he shouted in English,"will you kindly call off your soldiers? |
18868 | Mahmud would do that, I am sure,one of them said,"if he had but his will; but how could we march without provisions? |
18868 | Many more? |
18868 | May I ask how that is? |
18868 | May I ask who you are, sir? |
18868 | May I ask why you put the question, Hilliard? 18868 May I ask, General, what is to be done with the women?" |
18868 | May I ask, to begin with, how it is that the advertisement has, for so many years, remained unanswered? |
18868 | May I speak with my master? |
18868 | My dear Aunts,he said,"what in the world am I to do? |
18868 | No one else, here, would know more about it than you do? |
18868 | Now, do you ride? 18868 Now, may I ask how you are situated, with regard to money? |
18868 | Now, sir, will you deliver your message to me? |
18868 | Shall I take my servant with me, sir? |
18868 | Shall we take the three months''pay and remain here, or shall we go back to England? |
18868 | She had a pension, had n''t she? |
18868 | So you say the Sirdar blew you up? 18868 That is to say, water will be found nearly every day?" |
18868 | The Baggara are mostly mounted, are they not? |
18868 | The question is, what should I do here? 18868 Then he escaped?" |
18868 | Then interest has nothing to do with it? |
18868 | Then we are going among the Dervishes, again? |
18868 | Then will you come in? |
18868 | Then you do not intend to remain in the Egyptian Army? |
18868 | Then you will not pursue, sir? |
18868 | There is no fear of their straying, I suppose, Zaki? |
18868 | To what tribe do you belong? |
18868 | To work on the railway, or in the transport? |
18868 | Well, will you sit down, Mr. Hilliard,the General said,"and give us a full account? |
18868 | What are they going to do? |
18868 | What can we do? 18868 What did you pay for the shovel, Zaki?" |
18868 | What do you make them out to be, Zaki? 18868 What do you think, Annie?" |
18868 | What do you think, yourself? |
18868 | What happened then? |
18868 | What is it, Gregory? |
18868 | What is that, Zaki? |
18868 | What is to be done now?'' 18868 What is your name?" |
18868 | What say you, Father? 18868 What shall I have to do, master?" |
18868 | What shall we take, master? |
18868 | What will be done with the men, sir? |
18868 | When do we go? |
18868 | When will you be at Abu Hamed, sir? |
18868 | When will you be ready, do you suppose? |
18868 | Where is Fadil and his army, that they thus allowed so small a force to march along, unmolested? |
18868 | Where is he, now? |
18868 | Where should I be most likely to meet the Dervishes first? |
18868 | Which of you is it? 18868 Who can they be?" |
18868 | Why ask questions? |
18868 | Why, what is the matter with you, Zaki? |
18868 | Will it be very hot, Gregory? |
18868 | Will the estates go with the title, Hartley? |
18868 | Will you be away long? |
18868 | Will you call again, in half an hour? 18868 Will you come with me?" |
18868 | Will you kindly report my capture to Colonel Wingate or General Hunter? 18868 Will you swim with us till I can touch the ground, and then leave us? |
18868 | Would you take me, my lord? |
18868 | You are a new arrival, I think, sir? |
18868 | You are satisfied with your horse? 18868 You brought your portmanteau with you, I hope?" |
18868 | You did not hear his name? |
18868 | You did not say whether we were to take the horses, Master; but I suppose you will do so? |
18868 | You do not mind in what capacity you go? |
18868 | You do not speak the Baggara language, I suppose? |
18868 | You have been up at the front before, sir? |
18868 | You have found nothing, my lord? |
18868 | You have got your horse? |
18868 | You have heard what has been said? 18868 You know the country, I suppose?" |
18868 | You quite understand, Mr. Hilliard, that you are taking your life in your hands? 18868 You speak Arabic, and the tongue of the Negro blacks, almost as well as English?" |
18868 | You speak both Arabic and the Negro dialect perfectly, I am told? |
18868 | You want to go up to the Soudan? |
18868 | You want to go up? |
18868 | You were engaged in the city during the siege, were you not? |
18868 | You will report well of us, I hope, to the great English commander? |
18868 | Your father fell with Hicks Pasha, I am told, and you have joined us with the object of obtaining news as to the manner in which he met his death? |
18868 | ''May I touch him?'' |
18868 | ''Why should you risk bringing on inflammation, merely for the sake of getting about a few days earlier?'' |
18868 | A look of surprise came over the merchant''s face, and he said:"Have you called on your own account?" |
18868 | Abu told me that his wife, of whom he was very fond, was suffering very great pain from a tooth-- could I cure her? |
18868 | And in the second, how you have learned it?" |
18868 | And secondly, which shall we like best? |
18868 | And that there is no possibility, whatever, of our doing anything for you, if you get into trouble?" |
18868 | Are there any among the bravest of the tribes who would have done the same?" |
18868 | Besides, has not Mudil saved my life, and so become my brother?'' |
18868 | Besides, you have been on Hunter''s staff, have you not?" |
18868 | Can I take him away at once?" |
18868 | Can he speak English?" |
18868 | Can not you let him go, too?" |
18868 | Can you borrow a shovel, or something of that sort, from one of the natives here? |
18868 | Can you tell me that?" |
18868 | Can you tell me the address of my aunts? |
18868 | Can you, Mudil?'' |
18868 | Do you decide to go on foot, or mounted?" |
18868 | Do you know the country between this and Metemmeh?" |
18868 | Do you know what their losses have been?" |
18868 | Do you think that I had better go mounted, or on foot?" |
18868 | Do you think that they would have remained so long in the town, if they had learned that there are but two hundred of us, and one steamer? |
18868 | Do you think there is any fear of the Dervishes following our tracks?" |
18868 | Do you want to draw any money?" |
18868 | First, which would be best for us? |
18868 | Had he been concealed, for months, in the hut of a friendly tribesman? |
18868 | Had he been enslaved, and was he still lingering on, in a wretched existence? |
18868 | Had he been killed, in trying to make his way down? |
18868 | Had he made off in disguise, only to be murdered by wandering bands? |
18868 | Have I your permission to ride forward, and call upon them to surrender?" |
18868 | Have you news of Mahmud?" |
18868 | Have you read your father''s diary, yet?" |
18868 | He may have fallen before they surrendered-- who can say? |
18868 | Hilliard?" |
18868 | Hilliard?" |
18868 | Hilliard?" |
18868 | How can I, a poor man, know how to do such things? |
18868 | How did you find them?" |
18868 | How far is it from the well to El Obeid?'' |
18868 | How is it that no one knows a man who rides with a slave?'' |
18868 | How long is it since you left?" |
18868 | How long will you be?" |
18868 | How many miles are we above its junction with the White Nile?" |
18868 | How would you sell it?" |
18868 | How, then, can I spare even one who has saved your life?" |
18868 | I fully share his feelings; for could I not, with my cavalry, sweep them before me into the river, even though no footmen came with me? |
18868 | I have pleased myself, have n''t I? |
18868 | I suppose General Hunter has told you how I proposed utilizing your services?" |
18868 | I suppose nothing more is known about it?" |
18868 | I suppose you have a horse?" |
18868 | I suppose you managed to give them the slip, somehow?" |
18868 | I suppose you threw up your appointment, as soon as you discovered that Geoffrey died, years ago, and that you had come into the title?" |
18868 | I suppose your horses are on board?" |
18868 | If Mahmud and the great emirs are all content to wait, why should we be impatient?" |
18868 | If so, what had become of him, all these years? |
18868 | If we are not to fight, why were we sent here? |
18868 | In the first place, what you have learned? |
18868 | Is it indiscreet to ask you if you know anything about your father''s family?" |
18868 | Is it not our duty to help one another? |
18868 | Is it wonderful that they should come to you and be faithful?" |
18868 | Is there any chance of it?" |
18868 | Is there anything more for you to do to him?'' |
18868 | It is agreed, then, that if I go on this expedition, you will accompany me?" |
18868 | May I ask a favour? |
18868 | May I ask if your father bore the same Christian names?" |
18868 | May your servant ask why you put these questions?" |
18868 | Murray?" |
18868 | Must we always be fighting? |
18868 | Must we always be ignorant? |
18868 | None will be spared on either side-- why should this man be spared? |
18868 | Now, where were you when this business took place?" |
18868 | Of course, you have your pass?" |
18868 | Of course, you will put on Dervish robes and badges?" |
18868 | Pearson?" |
18868 | People might say,''Who is this man? |
18868 | Presently Gregory caught the words:"How is it that this young fellow calls himself Bimbashi, which, I believe, means major?" |
18868 | Shall I bring them on board?" |
18868 | The Emirs say to Mahmud that you ought to be killed; their followers are well- nigh starving-- why should an infidel prisoner be eating? |
18868 | The Staffordshire regiment went down, directly the place was taken, did they not?" |
18868 | The leader said,"Where are my friends going and why do they halt?" |
18868 | This is your first experience in soldiering, I suppose?" |
18868 | Was it merely some Dervish scouts, who had come in contact with our pickets, or was it an attacking force? |
18868 | Well, have you heard anything about a move?" |
18868 | Were you to go to England, with the child, what chance would you have of obtaining employment there, without friends or references? |
18868 | What can I do for you?" |
18868 | What did it matter, so that he could save her life? |
18868 | What do you say to my coming and living with you, when he has gone? |
18868 | What do you think of it?" |
18868 | What follower of the Prophet could do more? |
18868 | What food have we got?" |
18868 | What had he been doing, since? |
18868 | What is a walk of a few miles? |
18868 | What is your name?" |
18868 | What news have you?" |
18868 | When do you wish me to sail? |
18868 | Whence do you come?'' |
18868 | Where did you spring from? |
18868 | Where does he come from? |
18868 | Which way do you think we had better turn?" |
18868 | Why did not your mother send his letter to us?" |
18868 | Why should we come thus far from Omdurman, if we are to go no farther?" |
18868 | Will the colour last?" |
18868 | Will you bring me the three men you speak of? |
18868 | Will you kindly tell me what I had better do?" |
18868 | Will you kindly tell me what I should have to do?" |
18868 | Will you sit down on that box? |
18868 | Will you swear to me that, if you are questioned, you will say you know nothing of my flight?'' |
18868 | Will you tell Mr. Hilliard that I authorize him to call himself Bimbashi? |
18868 | Will you want this chest carried?'' |
18868 | Would the Egyptian horsemen stand firm, or would they give way to panic? |
18868 | Would the present attack be repulsed in time for the position to be changed, to meet the coming storm? |
18868 | You are starting in three days, are you not? |
18868 | You are surely not going to be foolish enough to chuck it, with the idea of returning to England, and taking anything that may turn up?" |
18868 | You can never have ridden, much less walked, across the desert from Omdurman?" |
18868 | You do n''t know any more about his father than you have told me?" |
18868 | You have got some iodine from the doctor, have you not?" |
18868 | You have heard what this man says; what do you think?'' |
18868 | You have not been appointed to any particular battalion, have you?" |
18868 | You have not brought a servant up with you, I suppose?" |
18868 | You told me you had no remembrance of him?" |
18868 | You would not fight for the Mahdi?'' |
18868 | Your followers have surrendered?" |
21719 | A good plan, Jack,said Armstrong,"but what if it should come cloudy and blot out the stars?" |
21719 | Ah, who indeed? 21719 Ai n''t it good of''em?" |
21719 | Ai n''t it snug? 21719 An''_ he_ does n''t think much of himself, does he?" |
21719 | An''what for no? |
21719 | An''you promise to stick to it? |
21719 | And do you wish to go to Egypt? |
21719 | And is he married to that dear girl you wrote about? |
21719 | And was accepted? |
21719 | And what if I refuse to undress? |
21719 | And you know nothing about the others? |
21719 | And you would scorn to serve under the French flag, or the Turkish flag, or the Black flag, or any flag but the Union Jack, would n''t you? |
21719 | And your subjects, the Arabs-- are they obedient and loyal? |
21719 | Any luggage, ma''am? |
21719 | Are all that come here Blue Lights? |
21719 | Are the beds here pretty good? |
21719 | Are they really as wild and dangerous as they get credit for? |
21719 | Are ye sure o''that, mate? |
21719 | Are you all ready, Brown? |
21719 | Are you an officer? |
21719 | Are you married? |
21719 | Are you officer? |
21719 | Are you sure of this, friend? |
21719 | Are you very bad, corporal? |
21719 | Ask him,he said at once to the interpreter,"where are the Christian dogs who were captured with him?" |
21719 | At the Institute? |
21719 | Ay, that I would; did n''t I teach him every letter myself? 21719 Ay-- wot have you got to find fault wi''Miss Robinson?" |
21719 | Ay; do n''t you wish you were me? |
21719 | Bad is it? |
21719 | Bread an''cheese, sir? 21719 But am I to go in this costume, or rather in this half- naked state?" |
21719 | But are they engaged? |
21719 | But do you mean to tell me that the load you''ve bin carryin''is not too heavy for you? |
21719 | But do you really mean that all that groaning-- which I confess to have been surprised at-- was mere pretence? |
21719 | But how did you know we were here at all? |
21719 | But tell me,he added,"have you heard anything of our unfortunate comrades since we parted?" |
21719 | But what are we to do? |
21719 | But where do you get these supplies from? |
21719 | But why encourage hope? |
21719 | But why_ pretend_ to be fond of the Arabs? |
21719 | But you seem to have caught a cold-- eh? 21719 Can ye give me a cup o''tea?" |
21719 | Can you, old man? 21719 Comes like light in a dark place, do n''t it, comrade?" |
21719 | D''ee think we''re in for a brush to- night, lad? |
21719 | D''you feel better now, my poor fellow? |
21719 | Dare you refuse? |
21719 | Did I not leave you behind me at Portsmouth? |
21719 | Did I understand correctly that a troop- ship has just arrived? |
21719 | Did n''t I tell you, Sam, that you''d like it better than the native grog- shops? |
21719 | Did you hear me? |
21719 | Do n''t it stand to reason that the enemy must be between us an''Suakim? 21719 Do n''t they look weather- beaten?" |
21719 | Do n''t ye see the ships? |
21719 | Do n''t you believe that Sergeant Hardy is a good soldier? |
21719 | Do n''t you know,answered Marion, looking down, and a little confused,"that men can speak with their eyes as well as their lips? |
21719 | Do n''t you think he may be doing that to blind his followers as to his friendship? |
21719 | Do n''t you think that_ tongue_ is also essential? |
21719 | Do the nights vary much? |
21719 | Do you not know,resumed the Mahdi, turning again to Miles with a fierce expression,"that I have power to take your life?" |
21719 | Do you really mean, my dear fellow, that the monsters have been torturing you in this way? |
21719 | Do''ee speak from personal experience, Jack? |
21719 | Does the Mahdi accompany us? |
21719 | Driven to what? |
21719 | For nothin''? |
21719 | Four- wheeler, ma''am? |
21719 | From your wife, corporal? |
21719 | Got any wittles here? |
21719 | Have you any children? |
21719 | Have you anything to complain of? |
21719 | Have you ever been in Portsmouth before? |
21719 | Have you heard the n- news? |
21719 | Have you joined them, Willie? |
21719 | Have you many mines about? |
21719 | Have you seen or heard anything of Stevenson? |
21719 | Hooroo, Armstrong, where away now? |
21719 | How d''ee know that, Flynn? |
21719 | How did you guess it then? |
21719 | How did you know that I''ve been bathing? |
21719 | How do I know anything I''m towld but by belaivin''it? |
21719 | How do you know she is good, mother? |
21719 | How old are you? |
21719 | I do n''t mean` is that all the fortune?'' 21719 I saw you in the lobby of the Institute this morning, did I not?" |
21719 | I say, Fred Thorley, ai n''t it bang up? |
21719 | I suppose you mean prisoners? |
21719 | I suppose you mean that he is only a private, but what then? 21719 I''ve bin occupied wi''that question too-- namely, how thin may a man git widout losin''the power to howld up his clo''es?" |
21719 | Is it wrong to make such an admission to one''s own mother, when it is true? |
21719 | Is that the` Soldiers Friend?'' |
21719 | Is that you again? 21719 Is that you, Simkin, that''s breathin''like a grampus?" |
21719 | Is the cellar deep? |
21719 | Is the soup ready, Moses? |
21719 | Is this all? |
21719 | Know it? 21719 Know you not,"he continued,"that I have the power to torture you to death?" |
21719 | Marion, dear, will you part with your rose- bud to a wounded soldier? |
21719 | May I follow you, madam? |
21719 | Miss Robinson, then? |
21719 | Mr Miles,said the missionary, pausing a moment to wipe his brow in the midst of his labours,"will you fetch the butter now?" |
21719 | No, but really, Jack, what is it you''re laughing at? |
21719 | No; what''s up? |
21719 | Noo, serjeant, what div ye want me to pit doon? |
21719 | Now do n''t this feel homelike? |
21719 | Now tell me,said the little woman, after calming the baby and putting it in a crib;"have you brought Miles Milton home all safe?" |
21719 | Now, then, young fellow,said the guardian of the night;"d''you think you can take care of yourself?" |
21719 | Or some lobscouse? |
21719 | Osman again? |
21719 | Please, ma''am, can I''ave some coffee? |
21719 | Rather cold for bathin'', ai n''t it, sir? |
21719 | Recognise it? |
21719 | Shall I assist you? |
21719 | Shall I fetch you some soup? |
21719 | Shall I read the Bible to you, lad? |
21719 | She is not ill, is she? |
21719 | Sing Number 68,` Shall we gather at the river?'' 21719 Tell me, sir,"said Miles, rousing himself,"is-- is your daughter safe?" |
21719 | Tell me-- how many? |
21719 | That is strange news rather than bad, is it not? |
21719 | That was the right thing to do, an''I suppose they enjoyed theirselves? |
21719 | Then the_ Welcome_ is well patronised, I suppose? |
21719 | Vy, you ai n''t agoin''to pay for_ me_, are you? |
21719 | W''y do n''t you say what you mean, then, Willum, instead o''pitchin''into a poor chap as makes no pretence to be a purfessor? 21719 Weel, serjint, hoo are ye the day?" |
21719 | Well, does the thought of your respective wives an''children prevent your shooting or sticking each other when you get the chance? |
21719 | Well, then, Gaspard, will you sing me a song? 21719 Well, well, who''d ha''thowt it would ever come to this?" |
21719 | Well, what shall it be? |
21719 | Well, you remember Hardy''s will, which you put into my hands a few days ago? |
21719 | Well, you see, madam, I suppose it''s because they see that we soldiers and sailors likes it, an''it does a power o''good-- don''t you think? |
21719 | Well, you see,continued his friend,"as the affair was arranged in heaven, according to general belief, what was I that I should resist? |
21719 | Well, young man, an''did n''t I_ say_ the` Billy Rough''un''? 21719 What brought you here?" |
21719 | What brought_ you_ here? |
21719 | What d''ee call_ that_? |
21719 | What d''ee mean by that, you houtrageous willain? |
21719 | What d''ee think that queer cratur Flynn is doin''doon below? |
21719 | What for did ye that? |
21719 | What good would it do to send him to Ireland? |
21719 | What hae ye got there, sergeant? |
21719 | What if the Arabs should change their course and fall in with us again? |
21719 | What if we ca n''t find it? |
21719 | What is it, Flynn? |
21719 | What is it, then? |
21719 | What is it? |
21719 | What part of the sky did you drop from? 21719 What sort o''hole was that?" |
21719 | What sort of an Institute is that? |
21719 | What think ye now, Miles? |
21719 | What would be the use o''comin''here if we did n''t do that? 21719 What you see?" |
21719 | What''ll you drink? |
21719 | What''s that? 21719 What''s the use of my going?" |
21719 | What''s the use,one of them asked,"of pullin''a long face over what you ca n''t change? |
21719 | What''s to be done? |
21719 | What_ is_ the use of that curious machine? |
21719 | Where did you spend the night? |
21719 | Where is he? |
21719 | Where is that regiment going? |
21719 | Where to, ma''am? |
21719 | Where to? |
21719 | Which one is that? |
21719 | Who are these? |
21719 | Who is he? |
21719 | Who is that, Miles? |
21719 | Who is that? |
21719 | Who is you, an''where you come fro? |
21719 | Who told you I was bad? |
21719 | Who will you trust? |
21719 | Why d''you think so? |
21719 | Why did n''t they go to the work''us? |
21719 | Why do n''t you say that_ drink_ is the cause of it-- straight out, like a man? |
21719 | Why do n''t you say` I told you so?'' |
21719 | Why, Mac, ye would n''t have me go_ inside_ of a horse, would ye? |
21719 | Why, what on earth do you mean? |
21719 | Why, what''s the matter with you, Jack? |
21719 | Why? |
21719 | Will you come with me up town? |
21719 | Will you tell me how many men you have in Suakim? |
21719 | Wo n''t it? |
21719 | Wo n''t some other relation look after her, Flynn? |
21719 | Wot captin''s that? |
21719 | Wot on airth''s all the noise about in that there corner? |
21719 | Would you kill a man that was smiling at you? |
21719 | Yes, Gaspard,was the eager reply,"can I do anything for you?" |
21719 | Yes, what do it recall, lad? |
21719 | Yes; what then? 21719 You do n''t mean that?" |
21719 | You do n''t mean that? |
21719 | You do n''t say so? |
21719 | You have got an unfinished letter, it seems? |
21719 | You have not recognised him yet, I suppose? |
21719 | You pride yourself on being a true- blue British tar, do n''t you? |
21719 | Young fellows are often in that state after joining, ai n''t they? |
21719 | ''Cause why? |
21719 | Am I dreaming?" |
21719 | An''p''r''aps you''ve bin a good deal under hatches since you come a- boord?" |
21719 | And is not every gentleman a blackguard who behaves as such?" |
21719 | And it swarms with foes, but what then? |
21719 | And now, Gaspard, what''s the news from England? |
21719 | And now, dear boy, are you prepared for bad news?" |
21719 | And the pretty daughter, what of her?" |
21719 | And was not love the highest duty? |
21719 | And will you do me a favour? |
21719 | Are ye leevin?" |
21719 | Are you married?" |
21719 | As for pain-- what was that to him? |
21719 | But did onybody iver hear o''a reg''ment gaun''oot to the wars an''comin''back jist as it went? |
21719 | But first, is there_ nothing_ left? |
21719 | But how is it that you, who seem to be free, do not use your opportunity to escape? |
21719 | But what brings you_ here_, lad? |
21719 | But what could I do? |
21719 | But what was you askin''about news bein''true? |
21719 | But where did you run off to?" |
21719 | But who among civilians,( save the informed), can imagine a barrack- room teapot? |
21719 | But, I say, what''s been the matter with Molloy? |
21719 | But, I say, what''s come o''the lobsters? |
21719 | But, I say,"continued Moses, while a look of anxiety came over his innocent face,"what can have become of our other comrades?" |
21719 | But, darling, is it not foolish in you to think so much about Miles?" |
21719 | But, father, are you sure that_ you_ are not hurt?" |
21719 | By the way, do you feel well enough to go to the lecture to- night? |
21719 | Can I direct you?" |
21719 | Can you come to- morrow morning?" |
21719 | Can you wonder that I grasped the treasure when within my reach?" |
21719 | Cause why? |
21719 | Could I?" |
21719 | D''ee think I''m any taller?" |
21719 | D''you know we run a chance of being late? |
21719 | D''you see?" |
21719 | D''you think I''ll ever believe it? |
21719 | D''you think that can be true?" |
21719 | Dead and buried in the sea? |
21719 | Did n''t I say he would be sorry? |
21719 | Did n''t I tell his father so? |
21719 | Did n''t he insist on making his down- strokes crooked? |
21719 | Did you hear of the case that occurred just two days ago? |
21719 | Do n''t ye see''i m? |
21719 | Do n''t you see?" |
21719 | Do the creditors take everything?" |
21719 | Do you t''ink dey will salute, and say,` Go in peace,''to de runner of de Mahdi when he is running away with his best horse?" |
21719 | Emmy,"interrupted the soldier reproachfully,"do you think I require to be_ kept in remembrance_ of that name? |
21719 | Finding no outlet there it rushes violently round the gulf--""Gits angry, no doubt, an''that''s what makes it hot?" |
21719 | Have I not heard of a Miss Weston, too, in connection with a work of some sort among sailors?" |
21719 | Have n''t ye got eyes, Moses?" |
21719 | Have not most of the great deeds of earth, been accomplished in the face of what seemed insurmountable difficulties? |
21719 | Have some beans and oil?" |
21719 | Have they been working you too hard, Jack?" |
21719 | Have you been sitting there since I left you?" |
21719 | Have you been wounded?" |
21719 | Have you_ all_ escaped? |
21719 | His heart sank as he thought of the word, for the Something within him became suddenly active, and whispered,"How about your duty to parents? |
21719 | How am I to know that you are not shamming friendship now?" |
21719 | How can you say you was n''t tired when you had fallen down only five minutes before, an''groaned heavily when you rose, and your legs trembled so? |
21719 | How comes it, then, that a man-- excuse me--`three sheets in the wind,''can gain admittance?" |
21719 | How could it be otherwise with sailors to cheer and soldiers to back them up? |
21719 | How d''ee s''pose the Portsmuth Institute could git along widout_ her_? |
21719 | How have they bin sarvin''you out since I last saw ye?" |
21719 | How were you led to suspect that he had come to Portsmouth?" |
21719 | I suppose you have heard what a grand occasion our opening day was?" |
21719 | I''ve often thought of you since, and of our first evening together in the-- the-- what was its name?" |
21719 | If he had done so, would I have delayed one minute in letting you know?" |
21719 | If this is praiseworthy in the sergeant, why should the talk of duty an''service an''honour to God be hypocrisy in the Christian? |
21719 | Is it really yourself? |
21719 | Is it true that a great many men of your regiment were killed and wounded at the battle fought by General McNeill?" |
21719 | Is it worthy of an intelligent man? |
21719 | Is not this unmanly-- childish-- humbug? |
21719 | Is that one in your hand?" |
21719 | Is your husband among them?" |
21719 | It ai n''t my fault if they become trustful, is it?" |
21719 | It was a generous but desperate act, for what could be expected of a double- weighted horse in such a region and with such a race before it? |
21719 | It''s true I burned''em sometimes a bit, but they''d hardly put a fellow in jail for that-- would they? |
21719 | John Miles, is that you? |
21719 | John, is it?" |
21719 | Marion-- how_ could_ you?" |
21719 | May I accompany you to this jetty to see the troops arrive, and this coffee business that you speak of?" |
21719 | May I ask what you would have me do?" |
21719 | May I speak to him?" |
21719 | May I venture to hope that you are friendly towards me?" |
21719 | Miles was somewhat interested in this, and asked,"How''s that?" |
21719 | Nae frien''s ava?" |
21719 | Need we say that this was Mrs Flynn? |
21719 | Now, as to advice: do you really want it?" |
21719 | Now, have you got it down?" |
21719 | Now, wo n''t it mend matters that I''ve got a dear girl over the sea to think about, and to say` God bless her, body and soul?''" |
21719 | Shall I give you both just now, or shall I wait?" |
21719 | Shall I go an''see?" |
21719 | Shall I''elp you?" |
21719 | Shall we deny to those men what we claim for ourselves-- love of hearth and home, of country, of freedom? |
21719 | Should he return? |
21719 | So you''ll help me?" |
21719 | So, you see, you have only got Craving to fight, and that''s encouraging, ai n''t it?" |
21719 | Talkin''o''comfort, what d''ee think has bin comfortin''me in a most wonderful way? |
21719 | Terence-- Terence Flynn, do n''t ye recognise yer owld mother? |
21719 | That''s how the place takes so well, d''ee see?" |
21719 | That''s patronisin'', ai n''t it? |
21719 | That''s what I call circumwentin'', d''ee see?" |
21719 | The wife o''the reverend gentleman as came out with us in the troop- ship?" |
21719 | Then there''s the-- But what''s your hurry?" |
21719 | To this Miles replied by a whistle of surprise, and then said,"Is that all?" |
21719 | W''ich way d''ee mean it?" |
21719 | Wan o''them was-- what is the smallest amount o''skin an''bone that''s capable of howldin''a thankful spirit?" |
21719 | Was it a long way hout of town as you was bathin''this forenoon, now?" |
21719 | Was there a great turn- out o''men?" |
21719 | What are you rubbing your eyes for?" |
21719 | What can the line be I see in the distance over there? |
21719 | What d''ee propose to try? |
21719 | What d''you think of McNeill''s brave defence being represented in the papers as a disaster?" |
21719 | What dishonour can exceed that of being leagued with the oppressor against the oppressed? |
21719 | What do you think, Mr Hardy?" |
21719 | What good would it do to kill half- a- dozen Arabs to accompany you into the next world? |
21719 | What have I to offer her except my worthless self?" |
21719 | What have you to tell?" |
21719 | What is his name?" |
21719 | What makes you cough and clear your throat so?" |
21719 | What mischief have''ee bin up to?" |
21719 | What more could we want?" |
21719 | What news?" |
21719 | What should he do? |
21719 | What territorial gain can make up for these lost lives-- the flower of the manhood of both parties?" |
21719 | What then?" |
21719 | What''ll you take to drink, mate?" |
21719 | Where away now?" |
21719 | Where shall I go to inquire? |
21719 | Who told you?" |
21719 | Why did you not jump on its back and fly?" |
21719 | Why, do n''t you know that she''s` The Soldiers''Friend''?" |
21719 | Why, it was there,( did I ever tell you?) |
21719 | Why, mate, where got ye all that larnin''?" |
21719 | Why, mate-- But what''s your name? |
21719 | Why, what ever is_ that_?" |
21719 | Why?" |
21719 | Will you accept this deliverance, my friend?" |
21719 | Will you go in for it, and promise to do as I bid you?" |
21719 | Will you promise?" |
21719 | Would she recognise his handwriting? |
21719 | You are quite sure, I suppose, that it was the_ Orontes_ in which your husband said he was coming?" |
21719 | You remember the Institoot? |
21719 | You remember the broad track, not half a mile off from where we now sit?" |
21719 | You wo n''t object to change hats wi''me?" |
21719 | You''re under it, ai n''t you? |
21719 | _ Ai n''t_ you Miles?" |
21719 | _ He_ was a Blue Light, was n''t he?" |
21719 | _ me_ go to a temperance meetin''?" |
21719 | a cheer?" |
21719 | ai n''t it nice?" |
21719 | and was n''t my heart almost broken over his square O''s?" |
21719 | are ye mad?" |
21719 | but he_ is_ a great jainius that Frenchman as tied the two says togither-- Lips-- Lisps-- what is it they calls him? |
21719 | but` is that all you have to say?''" |
21719 | cried Moses Pyne;"have the ladies been aboard?" |
21719 | exclaimed Miles, as the hearty tar wrung his hand,"who''d have expected to see_ you_ here?" |
21719 | gasped Marion, grasping his hand and looking furtively round,"is it possible? |
21719 | go down on my knees here before all them Arabs? |
21719 | have they got hold o''Rattling Bill?" |
21719 | have_ you_ joined the Blue Lights?" |
21719 | he said remonstratively,"who''d ever ha''thowt that I''d come to jerk about like that?" |
21719 | is it angered ye are at gittin''the worst o''the argiment?" |
21719 | made you cook o''the mess?" |
21719 | mother, how can you ask me? |
21719 | old man, how many heads are you goin''to give us in that there sermon?" |
21719 | retorted that pertinacious Something;"is not every private a gentleman who acts like one? |
21719 | still here? |
21719 | that your sweetheart?" |
21719 | the scoundrel that''s bin the cause o''all this kick- up?" |
21719 | thin, ye''ve got Irish whisky, have n''t ye?" |
21719 | what''ll she do now wid him gone an''me away at the wars?" |
21719 | what_ shall_ I do?" |
21719 | where-- where shall I drive to?" |
21719 | wo n''t you stop and have a cup of coffee with me?" |
21136 | A good many boats have them, have n''t they? |
21136 | Ah, Daireh, how do you do? |
21136 | Alive? |
21136 | Am I one of these extra superfines? |
21136 | Am I that, sir? 21136 And Gordon?" |
21136 | And am I to have you sucking me like a leech all my life? |
21136 | And are you going after him really? |
21136 | And did Sir Charles Napier fight them in square, sir? |
21136 | And did no one see him after that? |
21136 | And did you congratulate him? |
21136 | And do you think that I shall get one? |
21136 | And does it say what for? |
21136 | And for why not? |
21136 | And have you not noticed now, when folks laugh at an Irishman, he is mostly quite right if they had the understanding? 21136 And how about Richardson, your rear rank man, who got the same bullet which spoilt your bottle into his body, and died in pain that evening? |
21136 | And how is your prisoner getting on? 21136 And is that a fact now?" |
21136 | And is that so? 21136 And now we have recovered the will, uncle, how are we to send it to my mother?" |
21136 | And pick another to go with him, will you, sergeant? 21136 And the unaccountable disappearance of this will of uncle Richard''s, Kavanagh, has it put you in a very big hole?" |
21136 | And what are your wounds, Kavanagh? |
21136 | And what became of the varmint? |
21136 | And what is the camp for? 21136 And what will we want with reinforcements?" |
21136 | And when do you start? |
21136 | And when will we be after attacking Matammeh? |
21136 | And where did you run your Egyptian clerk to earth? |
21136 | And will ye plaze to get up? |
21136 | And would ye be after hanging a poor boy who never harmed ye in all his life? |
21136 | And you found your uncle who had turned wild man? |
21136 | And you have been to Egypt? 21136 And you heard where he was going?" |
21136 | And you need no interpreter? 21136 Any idiot knows that; but how do you make them into a pudding? |
21136 | Are these the right wills? |
21136 | Are they such cowards? |
21136 | Are you Strachan of the Blankshire? |
21136 | Are you growling or singing, Tarrant? |
21136 | Bad news from home? |
21136 | Burke, that was your name, mother; this uncle was your brother then? |
21136 | But I say,he added, as he looked in the other''s face,"is not your name Howard?" |
21136 | But do you suppose that the captain would have taken all this trouble without good information? |
21136 | But how shall we find this dog? |
21136 | But now, how about this silver watch? |
21136 | But suppose this fellow has not got the will, or has destroyed it, or has hidden it somewhere, and wo n''t tell? |
21136 | But they showed fight, and he took the place by storm, did he not, sir? |
21136 | But what is the row with your hand, Edwards? 21136 But what things do you allude to?" |
21136 | But when did you hear this? |
21136 | But you wo n''t tell, doctor? |
21136 | But your other friend, Forsyth, who went out to Egypt to find the man who was supposed to have the will-- has nothing been heard from him? |
21136 | Can I be of any use? |
21136 | Can the English dragoons or hussars do anything like that? |
21136 | Cavalry, I suppose; Lancers, Dragoons, or Hussars? |
21136 | Come out, you spalpeen, and drop that gun, will ye? |
21136 | Could I not have shot you from behind the rock? |
21136 | D''ye suppose I''listed as a soldier or a barge horse? |
21136 | Daireh, the money- lender, against whom I have had so many complaints, but who always manages to have the law on his side? |
21136 | Did I not take part in the defence when the Mahdi-- may his grave be defiled!--was driven from them with slaughter? |
21136 | Did n''t you hear? 21136 Do I look altered?" |
21136 | Do n''t you know me? |
21136 | Do n''t you remember Forsyth at Harton-- your fag? |
21136 | Do they remind you of Ireland, too? |
21136 | Do you believe that it rains sometimes in the Soudan, now? |
21136 | Do you know the Sheikh Burrachee? |
21136 | Do you know whether a man of his race, much younger, has joined him lately? |
21136 | Do you know, Green, you have done a very fine thing? |
21136 | Do you mind my speaking to you in English? |
21136 | Do you think they will fight? |
21136 | Do you think they will fight? |
21136 | Do you think we shall get on to- night, sir? |
21136 | Done what? |
21136 | Gladly; but would not that be difficult? |
21136 | Gordon''s four steamers arrived while you were at Abu Kru, the camp at Gubat, I think? |
21136 | Gubbins, sir,said the sergeant;"is he not here? |
21136 | Haroun, how much? |
21136 | Harry,he said, using the English accent for the name, however,"you remember me?" |
21136 | Has he been telling your fortune? |
21136 | Has the cold wind made you hungry, or has the effort to understand that chorus in Euripides exhausted you? |
21136 | Have a pipe out of my baccy- box, just to show there''s no malice? |
21136 | Have we relieved the place after all, then? |
21136 | Have you been to Berber lately? 21136 Have you had it cauterised? |
21136 | Here, you chaps,was the cry which assailed them when they made their appearance,"can either of you make a plum- pudding?" |
21136 | How do I know,he said,"that you will not kill me when I am completely disarmed?" |
21136 | How is your_ fons ilium_, Green? |
21136 | How was it, umpire? |
21136 | How was it? 21136 How was that?" |
21136 | I ask your pardon, sir,said a sergeant to Strachan, as they tramped through the sand,"but do you happen to know what we are going to fight about? |
21136 | I fancy? 21136 I have drawn up a rough copy of what I want put into legal terms; it is very short and simple; we can get it done to- day, can we not?" |
21136 | I hope not,replied Fitzgerald;"I want something to eat, do n''t you? |
21136 | I returned from the land of exile to visit my home, hoping to share my hard- earned gains with my own people, when what did I find? 21136 I say, Gubbins,"said Davis,"we fought fairly well to- day I reckon; but do you think we should have stood against such a fire as that?" |
21136 | I say, do you remember Baum major? |
21136 | I say, sergeant, what am I to do with this campbel now? |
21136 | I wish we could go like this all the way, Hassib,he said to the Nubian sitting by him;"we should soon get home then, eh?" |
21136 | I wonder whether those Indian fellows fought as hard as these Arabs? |
21136 | I, sir? |
21136 | Is El Obeid in the Mahdi''s hands, then? |
21136 | Is Suakim an island? |
21136 | Is he at all-- a little-- that is, a trifle cracked, father? |
21136 | Is he not a foreigner to the Soudan? |
21136 | Is his regiment in the Soudan? |
21136 | Is it far? |
21136 | Is it not time that you had your jelly and glass of port wine? |
21136 | Is not Edwards in your battalion? |
21136 | Is that your photograph? |
21136 | Is there a human being here who is not a jabbering idiot? |
21136 | It sounds pretty right,said the first speaker, doubtfully;"but how do you know? |
21136 | It sounds rather like a sweeping assertion that, does n''t it? |
21136 | It''s easy to laugh at a chap,spluttered Gubbins,"but this stuff tastes awful; and however shall I clean myself for inspection?" |
21136 | Lately? |
21136 | Madrepore-- why, that is a sort of coral-- isn''t it? |
21136 | Mardi is the French for Tuesday, is it not, sir? |
21136 | Matammeh has not been carried? |
21136 | May I go back to look for Strachan, sir, if you please? |
21136 | May n''t I give them one back, sir? |
21136 | Meaning the camels? |
21136 | My eye, you have had a good bout, mate;one said to him,"but where is the other fellow?" |
21136 | My tutor wants to see me? 21136 No, it seems like fighting against lightning and thunderbolts, do n''t it?" |
21136 | Now there is a chance for you, Macintosh,said the captain;"above that bush, do you see? |
21136 | Oh, it is for the hair, then,observed Harry;"and what makes it look all frothy like that?" |
21136 | Only our company, corporal? |
21136 | Or are you only chaffing? 21136 Pretty nearly over, you think it, do you?" |
21136 | Shall we go on to Tokar to- night, do you think? |
21136 | Shall we shoot the cataract to- night? |
21136 | So you want me to be knocked on the head, do you, you young villain? |
21136 | Stebbings, is that you? |
21136 | That is it, sir? 21136 That was a real will, was it?" |
21136 | The Johnny who understands him wo n''t do nothing; may I lick him? |
21136 | Then you are not a hero worshipper, Ward? |
21136 | Then you do not think they are genuine in their welcome, sir? |
21136 | Was he badly treated by Government? 21136 Was he hit, sir?" |
21136 | We are not to make back to Gubat, then? |
21136 | We''ve got naither the medal nor the bar nor Khartoum yet, d''ye ken? |
21136 | Well, Charley, did you eat them all yesterday? |
21136 | Well, Strachan,he said,"how do you like this work? |
21136 | Well, Strachan,said Reece, coming up,"are you ready to pilot us to- night?" |
21136 | Well, Tarrant,said Kavanagh, when they had been plodding on for some two hours in dead silence,"have you not got a growl for us?" |
21136 | Well, but I believe it is easier through the Militia than direct into Sandhurst, is it not? 21136 Well, has the colonel given you leave to go?" |
21136 | Well, have you got the medal for alcaics? |
21136 | Well, now I have time to ask, how on earth did you come to choose this desert for a steeple- chase course, and our little zereba for a goal? |
21136 | Well, old fellow, and how did you sleep? |
21136 | Well, sir, might I ask to go too? 21136 Well, the materials have just come; how do you work them up?" |
21136 | Well? |
21136 | Were you not wounded at Tamai last spring? |
21136 | What are they going to do with you then? |
21136 | What d''ye come across my bows for, then? |
21136 | What do you ask? |
21136 | What do you mean? |
21136 | What do you think of your chance? |
21136 | What have I to do but to submit? 21136 What is it?" |
21136 | What made you come to Ireland, then? 21136 What makes you say that?" |
21136 | What sort of soldiers do these Egyptians make? 21136 What''s the matter?" |
21136 | What''s the use? |
21136 | What''s up? |
21136 | What, Tom Strachan, of the Blankshire? |
21136 | What_ are_ the boys coming to? |
21136 | Where are the wills you stole? |
21136 | Where''s Grady? |
21136 | Where''s Kavanagh? |
21136 | Which shall we believe, Green? |
21136 | Who commands the force, and what is it collected for? |
21136 | Who do you mean? |
21136 | Who is_ they_? 21136 Who saw him last?" |
21136 | Who''s that at the door? |
21136 | Why are you like King Duncan''s blood on Lady Macbeth''s hand, Edwards? |
21136 | Why did you not fire then, Macintosh? |
21136 | Why do n''t he come and take his camel? |
21136 | Why not? |
21136 | Why should I? |
21136 | Why wo n''t they fight now? |
21136 | Why, Grady, what have you been up to? |
21136 | Why, then, was he murdered? |
21136 | Why, what good would it do you to pull me in with you? |
21136 | Why, what have you been using it for, Sullivan? |
21136 | Why, what is the matter, Green; where and how are you hurt? |
21136 | Why? |
21136 | Will it kill him? |
21136 | Will you tell me something, Kavanagh, you that''s a real scholar now-- can a man be two things at the same time? |
21136 | Would it be too great a presumption to ask to see this portentous document? |
21136 | Yes, Gubbins, what then? |
21136 | Yes, he is; do you know him? |
21136 | Yes,replied Kavanagh;"that makes one feel God great and man little, does n''t it?" |
21136 | You are certain it was in the nullah that Mr Strachan killed the Arab who was on the top of you? |
21136 | You did n''t expect this kind of work when you thought, as a boy, how you would like to go into the army, eh? |
21136 | You do not remember me? |
21136 | You do? |
21136 | You speak the words of Sheytan, the father of lies,said the sheikh sternly;"where are the stolen documents?" |
21136 | You think so, my tear young man? 21136 ` What did you see that was curious, Jack?'' |
21136 | A detective? |
21136 | A week''s earlier start, a little more energy in some clerk, tailor, bootmaker, shipwright-- who knows? |
21136 | All turned to sand? |
21136 | And a camel rider, would you call him a horse soldier, now?" |
21136 | And all the time he was talking, Harry Forsyth kept thinking,"Where have I seen him? |
21136 | And did you ever undergo the operation, now, Macintosh?" |
21136 | And his own position, was that any better? |
21136 | And how about Strachan?" |
21136 | And how are you, old fellow? |
21136 | And how far in a paper- chase, with the hare to run down and other hounds to compete with? |
21136 | And soon Trinkitat was entirely abandoned, and since no natives lived there( how could they when they had no fresh water?) |
21136 | And that professed friendly sheikh, who had come in with his scratches and told such a plausible tale, was he to be trusted? |
21136 | And what are the pagans fit for but slaves, sons of pigs that they are? |
21136 | And what do you say makes a cataract in the Nile?" |
21136 | And what son of Sheytan is this who has traced them, and had my likeness in his pocket? |
21136 | And where has the family moved to?" |
21136 | And why are the two forts made to defend it instead of filling it up? |
21136 | And why had he sought out his uncle? |
21136 | And why is the gap left? |
21136 | And yours? |
21136 | And, by- the- by, why is the British soldier called"Tommy Atkins?" |
21136 | And_ got_ it?" |
21136 | Are my people there well?" |
21136 | Are not the finest men and the prettiest girls at all Irishmen? |
21136 | Are you not the same?" |
21136 | Are you willing to change them for a stout silver one which will keep as good time, and pay me something for the difference?" |
21136 | As for Gordon, had they not had a message from him? |
21136 | At length he asked--"Is he dead?" |
21136 | But had he not returned home since then? |
21136 | But he got up, and said, with a face of intense anxiety--"` Is the big drum safe?'' |
21136 | But how can it be managed? |
21136 | But how do you come to be here, and in that toggery?" |
21136 | But it was the will of the All- Powerful, and what can we avail against fate?" |
21136 | But the city, the fortifications, the minarets, the water, which were so distinct a minute ago, where were they? |
21136 | But what are you going to do now?" |
21136 | But what do brave men feel in the delirium of battle? |
21136 | But what is Dublin? |
21136 | But what operation are ye talking of? |
21136 | But what was that firing in their rear? |
21136 | But what''s the use of telling lies when there''s nothing to be got by it?" |
21136 | But you knew it all before? |
21136 | But, I say, do you call this being under fire? |
21136 | But, I say, this is a bad story for Kavanagh about this will being missing, is it not? |
21136 | Can you not give us till the day after to- morrow? |
21136 | Can you ride?" |
21136 | Did he, then, bear a charmed life? |
21136 | Did you ever make one?" |
21136 | Do n''t you remember that 19th Hussar chap who came up the last halt? |
21136 | Do n''t you remember?" |
21136 | Do you remember Kavanagh?" |
21136 | Do you remember you went in my diabeheeh from Berber home to Alexandria?" |
21136 | Do you want it over that you may begin fighting the Arabs?" |
21136 | Five minutes passed, and there again by the rock Kavanagh was certain he saw a figure move this time, and he, in his turn, called--"Who goes there?" |
21136 | Going to have a marble statty, old man?" |
21136 | Had I had quite a third of it? |
21136 | Had a body of Soudanese lain concealed somewhere? |
21136 | Had sudden blindness fallen upon him? |
21136 | Had they got away? |
21136 | Has Sheytan given them charmed lives?" |
21136 | Has any one seen Dodd?" |
21136 | Hassib was quite confident of the correctness of his information, and how could it be disproved, or, for that matter, why should it be? |
21136 | Have the Burkes best reason to love the English or to hate them?" |
21136 | Have you found that will yet?" |
21136 | Have you got the two hundred?" |
21136 | Have you got your coral still, Green?" |
21136 | Have you heard anything of the missing will, or Harry Forsyth?" |
21136 | Have you never heard me speak of your uncle Ralph?" |
21136 | Have you not come out to me alone, leaving home and friends? |
21136 | Have you not miraculously learned the language of the country to which destiny called you? |
21136 | Have you not traversed the desert without guide, still alone; and though struck down by an unknown hand, have we not met? |
21136 | He has not slipped away yet, has he?" |
21136 | He knew that he had wanted to trace his uncle; but why? |
21136 | He salaamed with a confident air, which expressed,"Who will find me tripping? |
21136 | He was not the sort of man to be taken alive, I think, was he?" |
21136 | His example? |
21136 | How can you be so cruel as to mention the word?" |
21136 | How do you know that it is not the Mahdi himself?" |
21136 | How far across country could you run alone for the mere sake of exercise? |
21136 | How many were now living, and what chance had they of getting clear if they had survived thus far? |
21136 | I do n''t think I bullied you much, did I? |
21136 | I say, by- the- by, have you had your sword sharpened?" |
21136 | I say, who was to know you dressed up like that? |
21136 | I suppose you are growling then-- what about?" |
21136 | If I find the will it will put him square; but what is he to do till then?" |
21136 | If the sun rose at six, why did not the troops march before eight? |
21136 | Is it not curious that the great river of a country that is so bad for the eyes should have cataracts itself in it? |
21136 | Is it you, Hump, old boy, come to do a bit of sentry- go? |
21136 | Is n''t he an illigant bird that? |
21136 | Is she coming?" |
21136 | Is there any truth in the notion of people having presentiments? |
21136 | Is there not sinse in that, now, Kavanagh?" |
21136 | Is your water- bottle full?" |
21136 | It is a weapon which will save your life a hundred times by its accuracy and the rapidity of its fire; and what says the wise man? |
21136 | Meantime, what am I to do with her, I wonder? |
21136 | Mr Burrows had already done that? |
21136 | No, no; surely at Simla, was it not?" |
21136 | Nothing yet; yes, those red ants, as they seem in the far distance, what are they? |
21136 | Now that would sound foolish to many people, but you, who are an Irishman, see the bearings of it, do n''t you now?" |
21136 | Now, have the dromedaries died out, do ye think? |
21136 | Of course, if he succeeds Kavanagh will be right enough, but what is he to do in the meantime? |
21136 | One day he,( Harry, not the poet) was puzzled by some round balls of a frothy appearance, which he could not make out; could it possibly be soap? |
21136 | Only when Grady, whom he credited with more sense, went on the same tack, he said,"Thank you, Paddy; did you ever see a codfish crimped?" |
21136 | Or are they more expensive, and is the War Office that mane it wo n''t afford them, but trates Christians like baggage?" |
21136 | Or had their dead come to life again? |
21136 | Poor, crack- brained visionary, he had gone to his account now, and what need was there to recount his treasonable vagaries? |
21136 | Presently he heard Dobbs cry,"Who goes there?" |
21136 | So kind and thoughtful of him, was it not? |
21136 | Still, we should not get on well without grub or cartridges, should we, sir?" |
21136 | Strachan rose and went to him, asking--"Are you hit, my lad?" |
21136 | Sure they give us green goggles, or we should get the-- what do you call it, Mr Corporal, sir, if you plaze?" |
21136 | The Arab might not improbably be in the same position some day, and would he not then require aid himself? |
21136 | The Bey smoked a little while in silence, and then said--"If these documents are of no use to him, why has he taken them?" |
21136 | Then the question arose-- Who could profit by its disappearance? |
21136 | Then you will not be surprised at this sudden blow having affected him very seriously?" |
21136 | Then, deliberately removing the amber tube which he held in his hand, he said--"And you are my sister''s son? |
21136 | There was no redeeming feature for the most persevering maker of the best of things to turn to Experience gained? |
21136 | There was something round and hard there-- a lozenge? |
21136 | Was he going in the right direction? |
21136 | Was it at the Rag? |
21136 | Was it good? |
21136 | Was it possible? |
21136 | Was there a chance of that? |
21136 | Well, and what are you up to? |
21136 | Well, we wo n''t do that if we can help it, will we, Green? |
21136 | Were not his parents of the same land and race? |
21136 | Were there not a signet- ring, and a paper in a silver case, and jewels of value which you gave me?" |
21136 | Were you not brought when found, to all appearance dead, to the fakir, Abdul Achmet, the one man of all others I would have directed you to? |
21136 | What are you doing here-- in private practice?" |
21136 | What are you shooting at, Smith-- a balloon? |
21136 | What circumstance does his face recall?" |
21136 | What could Fortune possibly have to do with the Soudan War? |
21136 | What earthly use could this old will be, when one of more recent date lay in that tin box? |
21136 | What else?'' |
21136 | What is his chance of passing?" |
21136 | What is it made of, doctor?" |
21136 | What is the use of having a tropical sun if you do not make it do some fire- work for you beyond nearly roasting you to death? |
21136 | What motive could he have? |
21136 | What on earth about, I wonder?" |
21136 | What sale could there be for such an article? |
21136 | What sort of hand do you write?" |
21136 | What to do next? |
21136 | What was his life, what was the life of any man, of a million of men, compared with defeat? |
21136 | What was that? |
21136 | What was the matter with him? |
21136 | What was to happen next? |
21136 | What were those black figures moving along the side of yonder dune? |
21136 | What, in eight miles and at night- time? |
21136 | What_ do_ you mean?" |
21136 | When this had been going on a little time Strachan called out--"Where''s Gubbins?" |
21136 | Where are those papers about the Ballyhoonish Estates? |
21136 | Where are you staying?" |
21136 | Where can he have got to? |
21136 | Where could poor Tom Strachan have got to? |
21136 | Where did you last see him?" |
21136 | Where was Abu Klea? |
21136 | Where was it though?" |
21136 | Whereon earth had he ever heard the word Burrachee? |
21136 | Which is it, I wonder? |
21136 | Who to send? |
21136 | Why detail the scene? |
21136 | Why did he quit the zereba? |
21136 | Why did they not use their artillery? |
21136 | Why disturb the ashes of the buried past?" |
21136 | Why make two bites of a cherry? |
21136 | Why, then, what were they fighting for? |
21136 | Why?" |
21136 | Will Hicks Pasha be bothered with me?" |
21136 | Will you drop it in for her?" |
21136 | Will you have a drop?" |
21136 | Will you have it as a memorial from a fellow to whom you have been uncommonly kind? |
21136 | With an army at Khartoum in front, and the army here in our rear, we should be between two fires, do n''t ye see? |
21136 | Wo n''t you give me a chance, and pay me nothing till I am useful?" |
21136 | You are journeying there now?" |
21136 | You are no use at all, Strachan; why do n''t you make your section reserve their fire? |
21136 | You call your bad puns wit, do you?" |
21136 | You know, I suppose, that you can not get your company until you have done that?" |
21136 | You may have known that?" |
21136 | You remember the sham fights we used to have at Aldershot? |
21136 | You see that rocky hill, with trees, out to the north?" |
21136 | You seem to be a bit of a military critic; what do you think of them, and how do you like their mounts?" |
21136 | Your mother was in it, was she not?" |
21136 | _ Apropos_ of dinner, who do you think is coming to feed with us this evening, Kavanagh?" |
21136 | ` The property of a gentleman, having no further use for it,''eh? |
21136 | ` What else, Jack?'' |
21136 | asked Grady;"have n''t we bate the inimy into fiddle- strings already?" |
21136 | exclaimed Macintosh,"ye would na go past it and leave all these thousands of heathens in our rear, would ye? |
21136 | exclaimed the new- comer,"I beg your pardon if I am wrong, but is not your name Reece?" |
21136 | he said,"however were you passed for the army? |
21136 | said Kavanagh, severely,"do you know what Louis the Fourteenth of France said when his carriage drew up, as he stepped outside his front door?" |
30365 | --As I already know that he is there, can I see him to- night? |
30365 | About the kites? |
30365 | Ah, Idris and Gebhr? 30365 An elephant?" |
30365 | And Kali? |
30365 | And Saba? |
30365 | And after that who will succeed? |
30365 | And am I such a lady? |
30365 | And before you? |
30365 | And do they live in water? |
30365 | And does he permit her to sleep? |
30365 | And everything which each one possesses and will possess? |
30365 | And how shall we find them among the sand- hills? |
30365 | And may I pluck just those flowers? |
30365 | And shall we ride long? |
30365 | And that one shall not pilfer from the other? |
30365 | And that there should not be between you falsehood, nor treachery, nor hatred? |
30365 | And that you shall be brethren? |
30365 | And the hands and the spears and the cows? |
30365 | And these men? |
30365 | And this camp? |
30365 | And those negroes? |
30365 | And to Abyssinia? |
30365 | And what am I to do afterwards, and where shall I go? |
30365 | And what do you intend to do? |
30365 | And what does she eat during that time? |
30365 | And what is a knight- errant? |
30365 | And what of it? |
30365 | And what then? |
30365 | And what will you do? |
30365 | And who lives beyond the Samburus? |
30365 | And who was Hannibal? |
30365 | And why did England permit the Mahdi to occupy so much territory? |
30365 | And will you, Nur el- Tadhil, leave us? |
30365 | And would they obey? |
30365 | And would you be able to cope with them? |
30365 | And you already understand this? 30365 And you wanted to kill him?" |
30365 | And you, Stas? |
30365 | And you-- and Mea and Kali? 30365 Are there a river and waterfall ahead of us?" |
30365 | Are we already stopping for the night? |
30365 | Are you cold? |
30365 | Are you delighted that you came to me? |
30365 | Are you not a slave? |
30365 | Are you sure that he was a sentinel? |
30365 | But can all their money open for us the gates of paradise which only the blessing of the Mahdi can do? |
30365 | But how can the Sudânese fly across the desert? 30365 But how?" |
30365 | But if he should do it? |
30365 | But if there is a great explosion, will he not get scared? |
30365 | But if you caught one and took him along with us to the ocean? |
30365 | But they awoke? |
30365 | But we will not ride back on camels? |
30365 | But what am I to do and where shall I stay until the time of the afternoon prayer? |
30365 | But what could shake it? |
30365 | But what good are Fatma and her children to the Government? |
30365 | But what makes you think so? |
30365 | But what will the tribesmen of the ill- omened prophet do with them? 30365 But when alone are we not allowed to make an excursion, even though such a tiny bit of a one?" |
30365 | But where shall we seek them? |
30365 | But why should they chase after him? 30365 But why so many?" |
30365 | But you prefer the blessing of the Mahdi? |
30365 | Can they advance as far as Egypt? |
30365 | Could the children chance upon a similar spring? |
30365 | Did any one see you? |
30365 | Did he go long ago? |
30365 | Did he look long? |
30365 | Did those Englishmen return? |
30365 | Did you conjure it to appear before us? |
30365 | Did you ever in your life see a Mzimu? |
30365 | Did you not fear in the night that you would meet a lion or a panther? |
30365 | Did you not learn anything on Mount Linde, and are you not a Christian? |
30365 | Did you order the fetish- men to go with us? |
30365 | Did you order them to be killed? |
30365 | Did you see him? |
30365 | Did you see the snake? |
30365 | Do the lower classes in Egypt really favor the Mahdi? |
30365 | Do they jolt much? |
30365 | Do you desire that the heart of Kali should be the heart of M''Rua and the heart of M''Rua the heart of Kali? |
30365 | Do you desire to accept my doctrines? |
30365 | Do you know what Kali is? |
30365 | Do you know, Kali,he asked a certain day,"that after twenty days on horseback we could reach your country?" |
30365 | Do you see any one any one standing there before me? |
30365 | Do you think that I am not one? 30365 Do you think that another snake is hiding in the tree?" |
30365 | Even unloaded? |
30365 | For what would I then have to do? |
30365 | Get angry, get angry, but who will free the elephant? |
30365 | Have not the Wahimas killed any of these men dressed in white? |
30365 | Have you good camels? |
30365 | How do you feel, little one? |
30365 | How do you know it is far? |
30365 | How do you know that she has permitted it? |
30365 | How does the gentleman know this? |
30365 | How far is Luela from here? |
30365 | How is that water called? |
30365 | How many are there? |
30365 | How will he carry the cartridges, if very few of them remain? |
30365 | How will they find Smain? |
30365 | How? 30365 I wanted to call you, and-- I could not-- but--""But what?" |
30365 | I was awake before then and even wanted to come out of the tent, but--"But what? |
30365 | I? 30365 I? |
30365 | I? |
30365 | If, however, the Egyptian troops are completely routed? |
30365 | Is he the greatest of caliphs? 30365 Is that a great nation?" |
30365 | Is that country like this? |
30365 | Is that so? |
30365 | Is there no help for them? |
30365 | Is there no more on the kite? |
30365 | Kali, did the sick negro hear of the war? |
30365 | Kali, what is the name of your people? |
30365 | Kali,Stas asked in a low tone,"do the Wahimas hunt lions?" |
30365 | Kites? |
30365 | Nonsense,said Stas,"look at this one; is he not well slain?" |
30365 | Quiet them? |
30365 | Shall we at that late hour be able to obtain food and fodder? 30365 Slain?" |
30365 | So he may reward us? |
30365 | So orders came to capture us? |
30365 | So the faithful do not see the prophet? |
30365 | Some evil is brewing? |
30365 | Stas, the lion will not attack us, will he? |
30365 | Stas, what has happened? |
30365 | Stas, why are we flying so? |
30365 | Stas, wo n''t he harm himself? |
30365 | Such as Sahara? |
30365 | Such as you used to send up in Port Said? 30365 Tell me how it was? |
30365 | Tell us how you finished with the boy? |
30365 | That is well, but where shall I find shelter? |
30365 | The Mahdi is not living? |
30365 | Then I shall ask you why your wisdom did not leave them at home? |
30365 | Then I shall be in the geographies? |
30365 | Then Smain is a good man? |
30365 | Then my father and Mr. Rawlinson are not in Benisueif but in El- Gharak? |
30365 | Then what is to be done? |
30365 | Then what is to be done? |
30365 | Then what shall we do? |
30365 | Then you like to be idle? |
30365 | They are sleeping and will not awaken any more? |
30365 | They will not come here? |
30365 | To a drug store? |
30365 | Wahima? 30365 Water- elephants?" |
30365 | Well, what am I to do, and where shall I go with Nell? |
30365 | Well, what are you going to do with me? |
30365 | Well, what will happen? 30365 What am I to do?" |
30365 | What are you doing there, and where are you going? |
30365 | What are you doing? |
30365 | What are you doing? |
30365 | What are you saying, Nell? |
30365 | What are you saying, Nell? |
30365 | What are you talking about, Nell? |
30365 | What do you then do? |
30365 | What do you think could have happened? |
30365 | What do you want? |
30365 | What do you want? |
30365 | What does that mean? |
30365 | What for? |
30365 | What happened? |
30365 | What has happened, Stas? |
30365 | What has happened? |
30365 | What is a Mzimu? |
30365 | What is a siafu? 30365 What is it, dear?" |
30365 | What is it? |
30365 | What is it? |
30365 | What is it? |
30365 | What is it? |
30365 | What is that? |
30365 | What is the matter with you? |
30365 | What is this? 30365 What is this?" |
30365 | What is this? |
30365 | What is this? |
30365 | What is your father? |
30365 | What is''Luela''? |
30365 | What of it? 30365 What shall we do now, Stas?" |
30365 | What would you do if we met the Wahimas, and what would they do? |
30365 | What, Stas? |
30365 | What, do you think? |
30365 | When shall we leave? |
30365 | When will they overtake us? |
30365 | Where are we going? |
30365 | Where is the fetish- man? 30365 Where is the fetish- man?" |
30365 | Where,he finally asked,"are Fumba''s warriors whom the Samburus dispersed?" |
30365 | Where? |
30365 | Where? |
30365 | Who is there? |
30365 | Who knows but that we may find a despatch in the hotel? |
30365 | Who would have prevented you from remaining a Christian in your soul? |
30365 | Who? |
30365 | Why are you giving me that? |
30365 | Why are you looking so? |
30365 | Why do n''t you answer? |
30365 | Why do you want me to give you the rifle? |
30365 | Why do you want to go with us? |
30365 | Why do you want to kill the dog? 30365 Why does the daughter of the moon weep?" |
30365 | Why not? |
30365 | Why should that concern you? |
30365 | Why should you be so anxious? |
30365 | Why should you want to shoot at them? |
30365 | Why, Stas? |
30365 | Why, Stas? |
30365 | Why,she asked in a broken voice,"do Gebhr and Chamis walk around the tree and peer at me?" |
30365 | Why? |
30365 | Why? |
30365 | Why? |
30365 | Why? |
30365 | Why? |
30365 | Why? |
30365 | Why? |
30365 | Would you like to see your father? |
30365 | Yes, but you will kill every ugly beast? |
30365 | You are not afraid, now? |
30365 | You could not? 30365 You say then that we will remain in Omdurmân?" |
30365 | Yours, little viper? |
30365 | ( A bird? |
30365 | A bird?) |
30365 | After which he asked further:"What were you thinking of at that moment?" |
30365 | After which he began to ask further:"Are you going to transport us to- morrow to Omdurmân?" |
30365 | Again resounded the feverish interrogations:"What is to be done?" |
30365 | Akuna ndege? |
30365 | And Chamis? |
30365 | And Idris asked:"How do you know that we are driving away from the Nile, since the banks can not be seen from here?" |
30365 | And Nell continued in a scarcely audible, dreamy voice:"And papa will come and you will come sometime, will you not?" |
30365 | And after that, what? |
30365 | And she began to call to him:"Elephant, dear elephant, is n''t it true you would not do any harm to us?" |
30365 | And that is death,--do you understand? |
30365 | And what says Kali, the son of the king of Wahima? |
30365 | And why did they not obey his commands? |
30365 | Arabs from the eastern coast? |
30365 | Are there two of you above me? |
30365 | Are you anxious that we should join his detachment?" |
30365 | Are you anxious that your faith should be professed by cowards and base people?" |
30365 | Are you there?" |
30365 | As if I had how many years?" |
30365 | As to judgment, were you judicious at his age?" |
30365 | At this the other officer turned quickly around and asked:"Rawlinson? |
30365 | At you?" |
30365 | Besides, do you know what would have happened if they did not find Smain? |
30365 | Besides, do you think that on the river there are no secret friends of the Mahdi? |
30365 | Buffaloes, perhaps? |
30365 | But I am glad that I did not do that, as the men would perish on the way, and, even if they reached the coast, why should we awaken vain hopes?" |
30365 | But Stas, at the very thought of whipping the"bibi,"jumped as if scalded and shouted in anger:"Fool, do you know who the''bibi''is?" |
30365 | But after a moment he asked:"But what of Chamis?" |
30365 | But do n''t you feel sick?" |
30365 | But he propounded to himself the question, who in such case will carry Nell''s tent and on what will she herself ride? |
30365 | But how will you name this possession?" |
30365 | But what could it be? |
30365 | But what shall Kali do with Faru and with the Samburus who killed Fumba?" |
30365 | But what will become of your kingdom and who will govern the Wahimas in your place?" |
30365 | But when would that happen, and what would they encounter before that time? |
30365 | But who knows who is destined to die first? |
30365 | But why did you climb the tree, and what are you doing there?" |
30365 | But why do they not allow Fatma to leave Port Said?" |
30365 | But why do you not sleep?" |
30365 | By what miracle through long months of journey did they not die from starvation, or become the prey of wild animals? |
30365 | Did n''t you hear him? |
30365 | Did their hoof- beats awaken you?" |
30365 | Did you hear him draw near?" |
30365 | Did you speak of some sick girl? |
30365 | Do you hear the waterfall?" |
30365 | Do you hear?" |
30365 | Do you know that you almost ruined me? |
30365 | Do you know what that means? |
30365 | Do you know where you are at present?" |
30365 | Do you remember, Glenn, the little one''s angelic countenance?" |
30365 | Do you see that opening? |
30365 | Do you see? |
30365 | Do you understand, you fool?" |
30365 | Do you understand? |
30365 | Do you understand?" |
30365 | Do you understand?" |
30365 | Do you understand?" |
30365 | Do you want him to blow it away-- oh, men?" |
30365 | Do you want to drink at that fountain?" |
30365 | Do you want to have plenty of food and milk-- oh, men?" |
30365 | Does Madame know how far it is from Medinet to Khartûm?" |
30365 | Finally Nell, finding herself on her own feet, began to gaze in Pan Tarkowski''s eyes:"Pan Tarkowski--""What is it, Nell?" |
30365 | Finally she asked:"Honestly, Stas, is n''t he wise?" |
30365 | Finally, who could guarantee that Stas would not die after such an operation? |
30365 | For appearances, for a few words, which at the same time you may disavow in your soul? |
30365 | For some time they rode in silence; after which Idris again asked:"How soon shall we arrive at Khartûm?" |
30365 | For what reason did the boy not attempt to fly with his little companion to Abyssinia? |
30365 | For with what will I hunt, with what will I defend you in case of an attack? |
30365 | From these dreams he was awakened by Idris who, pointing at Stas carrying the sleeping girl, asked:"What shall we do with that hornet and that fly?" |
30365 | From whence did Stas get the information about him? |
30365 | Has not some sickness taken hold of me?" |
30365 | Have you ever heard of the Mahdi?" |
30365 | Have you not had enough in the journey from Fayûm to Khartûm? |
30365 | He never in his life saw either Gebhr or the Bedouins; he knew only Chamis, but what was Chamis to him? |
30365 | He restrained himself, however, and, turning to the little girl, asked:"Do you fear, Nell?" |
30365 | Help? |
30365 | Here the Greek broke off and asked:"Do any of these men understand English?" |
30365 | How can you think that she can endure such a journey? |
30365 | How could you do this?" |
30365 | How shall we get through the Samburu country?" |
30365 | How will you be able to slip through?" |
30365 | I do not know whether we can hold out from hunger until the hour of prayer, and who will feed us later?" |
30365 | If she should die, I also will die, and then with what will you come to the Mahdi?" |
30365 | If that really was Fayûm, would they gaze upon it so indifferently? |
30365 | If the slave- hunt is successful, he will take the slaves to the cities to sell them--""What is to be done?" |
30365 | If, however, it should be a division of Smain''s forces who, having encountered the corpses in the ravine, are pursuing the murderers? |
30365 | If, slipping out with the weapon and hiding among the rocks, he should kill not the men but shoot the camels? |
30365 | In Fashoda even adult Europeans die of the fever like flies, and what of such a child? |
30365 | In the meantime the Mahdi replaced the gourd and asked:"So, you reject my doctrines?" |
30365 | In what had she, ill- fated woman, offended the Government or the Khedive? |
30365 | In what manner did they succeed in escaping from the hands of the guards? |
30365 | Is Dinah to go with you?" |
30365 | Is he not one of the directors of the Canal and has he not a brother in Bombay?" |
30365 | Is it so?" |
30365 | Is it worse than a lion?" |
30365 | Is there another king and nation as stupid in the world? |
30365 | Is your father a sorcerer?" |
30365 | It is the duty of man to preserve life and it would be madness, and even a sin, to jeopardize it-- for what? |
30365 | It would be too bad and a sad ending for the innocent animals;--that is true, but what was to be done? |
30365 | Ndege?" |
30365 | Nell, do you see that fragment? |
30365 | Nell, pleased with the praise, propped her little nose on his arm; after which she asked:"When shall we start on our fifth journey?" |
30365 | Not a bird? |
30365 | Perhaps a pair of rhinoceroses seeking an exit from the ravine? |
30365 | Perhaps that snake was Mzimu?" |
30365 | Shall I ride to them?" |
30365 | She, on the other hand, asked:"But if you catch the fever?" |
30365 | Smain will not be hard to find--""Will they, however, overtake him?" |
30365 | So he stopped them and asked:"Who ordered you to go?" |
30365 | So where did it come from?" |
30365 | Stas approached the giant tree, whose trunk, hollowed through decay near the ground, looked like a tower, and asked:"What do you want?" |
30365 | Stas did not know which would be better-- a sudden death or new captivity? |
30365 | Stas himself threw brushwood onto the fire, after which he shook the negress and asked:"Where is Kali?" |
30365 | Stas looked more and more sternly:"What of it?" |
30365 | Stas raised one of the jars towards the fire- pot and asked with pride and joy:"And what is this?" |
30365 | Stas rubbed his perspiring forehead with his hand; after which he said:"And M''Kunje and M''Pua?" |
30365 | Stas waited for some time, but as the negro did not return, he involuntarily propounded to himself the question:"Did he run away?" |
30365 | Stas''curiosity was so aroused that he forgot that he had determined not to speak to Idris any more and asked:"Sands? |
30365 | Stas, behind Idris, leaned towards Nell and asked:"Do you feel cold?" |
30365 | Take a horse also; you will return sooner to your patient-- how old is she?" |
30365 | The Mahdi smiled at him with his thick lips, asking:"Do you want to drink at the spring of truth?" |
30365 | Then at the camp- fire began the following conversation:"Can we start?" |
30365 | Then he shouted to Kali:"Kali, did you see them?" |
30365 | Then what did it mean? |
30365 | They fought with giants and dragons, and do you know that each one had his lady, whom he protected and defended?" |
30365 | To- day the weather is fine; you see, however, that the clouds are gathering thicker and thicker and who knows whether it will not pour before night? |
30365 | Truly, did you say that you had escaped from dervish captivity and are hiding in the jungle? |
30365 | Upon what tribes would he yet chance, into what regions would he enter, and how much travel still remained? |
30365 | Was it her fault or could she be held accountable because she was the relative of the dervish, Mohammed Ahmed? |
30365 | Was the pursuing party already approaching? |
30365 | Well then, what later? |
30365 | Well, what is it?" |
30365 | Well?" |
30365 | What are you doing?" |
30365 | What could this be? |
30365 | What creatures are these which have come to us, and what awaits us at their hands?" |
30365 | What do you intend to do with him?" |
30365 | What do you intend to do?" |
30365 | What do you want of me?" |
30365 | What do you want?" |
30365 | What does it mean?" |
30365 | What dreadful misfortune awaited them among the savage hordes intoxicated with blood? |
30365 | What hand could snatch from it and save two small, defenseless children? |
30365 | What happened?" |
30365 | What is it? |
30365 | What is this, their Mzimu? |
30365 | What lion would dare to hunt there where the sound of the King reaches?" |
30365 | What meant the blood of such wretches beside the life of Nell, and could any one in such a situation hesitate? |
30365 | What, after all, would it have availed him to shoot in such darkness? |
30365 | What? |
30365 | Where are his charms? |
30365 | Where did the children get the paper for the kite? |
30365 | Where did they hide? |
30365 | Where is Kamba?" |
30365 | Where is his power? |
30365 | Where is the fetish- man? |
30365 | While he replied:"And to whom am I to be kind? |
30365 | While she asked uneasily:"But you will return to Port Said?" |
30365 | Who knows whether he does not feel a little gratitude towards us? |
30365 | Who knows whether he has not run away? |
30365 | Who knows whether it will not be the longest journey?" |
30365 | Who knows why? |
30365 | Whom would he see below? |
30365 | Why are you crying? |
30365 | Why are you flying like that about the fire?" |
30365 | Why are you staring at me like at a green cat? |
30365 | Why did the dervishes send them east of the Nile into an unknown region? |
30365 | Why did you kill them?" |
30365 | Why does not any wicked Mzimu roar in his defense? |
30365 | Why were they not killed by savages? |
30365 | With what will you defend yourself, if wild animals or brigands attack you?" |
30365 | Would Nell be able to endure all these fatigues and privations? |
30365 | Would he come to them, and would he travel along with them? |
30365 | Would he find death, or slavery, or salvation for Nell? |
30365 | Would it not be proper for him to satisfy himself upon this point? |
30365 | Would they find the children or would they not? |
30365 | XXI"Nell, can you enumerate our journeys from Fayûm?" |
30365 | XXI"Stas, why are we riding and speeding and have not yet reached Smain?" |
30365 | Yes, but if they should not give him time to make such a promise and should kill him in the first transports of rage? |
30365 | You have no hope?" |
30365 | brought that dog here,"exclaimed Gebhr,"but in what manner did he find the children, since they came to Gharak by rail?" |
30365 | cried Nell from below,"but how will you get down now?" |
30365 | exclaimed Stas,"and what is a good one?" |
30365 | what did you do afterwards?" |
30365 | what have you done? |
18883 | A mere sunstroke? 18883 A stuffy place Suakin, eh, Sutch?" |
18883 | A token? |
18883 | A well? |
18883 | Abou Fatma,said Willoughby, slowly,"one of the Hadendoas?" |
18883 | Abou Fatma? |
18883 | About Gordon''s letters and the wall of a house in Berber? 18883 After all, why are you here?" |
18883 | After we had gone? |
18883 | Ah, but did you consider it? 18883 An escape?" |
18883 | And Colonel Trench too? |
18883 | And Durrance left no message? |
18883 | And Miss Eustace? |
18883 | And after the song was ended? |
18883 | And all that you have told me happened in the spring? |
18883 | And all this-- all that you have told to me,she exclaimed suddenly, with her face very stern,"you would have hidden from me? |
18883 | And is this all? |
18883 | And it''s all you know? |
18883 | And that is all? |
18883 | And the letter still remains in the wall? 18883 And the open country?" |
18883 | And was that all I told you? |
18883 | And when was that? |
18883 | And where does Miss Eustace live now? |
18883 | And you bring it to me? |
18883 | And you gave no sign? |
18883 | And you go back there? |
18883 | Any news? |
18883 | Anything more? |
18883 | Are the Effendi tired? |
18883 | Are you blind? |
18883 | Are you quite sure, Ethne,said Mrs. Adair,"that the two lives will not be more surely spoilt by this way of yours-- the way of marriage? |
18883 | Are you quite sure? |
18883 | Are you so glad of the change? |
18883 | Are you sure? |
18883 | Are you sure? |
18883 | But anything else? 18883 But how does Miss Eustace know?" |
18883 | But is he alive? |
18883 | But must you and I wait? |
18883 | But need you subscribe to it, Feversham? |
18883 | But since I know,he protested,"what does it matter how I know? |
18883 | Can a sunstroke destroy the optic nerve? |
18883 | Can we muster a tableful, do you think? |
18883 | Can you see her now in the garden? |
18883 | Can you? |
18883 | Castleton? |
18883 | Compensations of what kind? |
18883 | Could the stranger be Harry Feversham? |
18883 | Could you find the house again? |
18883 | Did I? |
18883 | Did he tell you of a fourth white feather? |
18883 | Did n''t I hear, Durrance,he said with an air of carelessness,"that you were engaged to Miss Eustace?" |
18883 | Did she make a mistake five years ago? 18883 Did you cause that trouble?" |
18883 | Did you ever read''Hamlet''? |
18883 | Did you never inquire whom Durrance talked with at Tewfikieh on that night? |
18883 | Did you not ask him? 18883 Did you?" |
18883 | Do I hurt you? |
18883 | Do you ever see Durrance? |
18883 | Do you hear our ombeyehs? 18883 Do you hear, Kaffir?" |
18883 | Do you hear? 18883 Do you know what I was thinking when I stopped you?" |
18883 | Do you mind? |
18883 | Do you remember that? |
18883 | Do you remember, Harry? |
18883 | Do you want me so very much? |
18883 | Do you wonder that I am glad? 18883 Does Colonel Durrance know that I am in the club?" |
18883 | Does it mean death? |
18883 | Does my story account for it? |
18883 | Ethne, where do you think I heard that overture last played? |
18883 | For whom do you come? |
18883 | For yourself? 18883 From Dongola?" |
18883 | From Lieutenant Calder, saying that Colonel Durrance had gone blind? |
18883 | From Metemneh? 18883 From Ramelton?" |
18883 | From him? |
18883 | Had you anything of mine with you? |
18883 | Harry is still in the Soudan? |
18883 | Have n''t you noticed how quick he has grown and is growing? 18883 Have you ever suffered an injury in the head?" |
18883 | Have you forgotten the yarn he told you? |
18883 | Have you no friends? |
18883 | Have you noticed the date of the month, Sutch? |
18883 | Have you seen Ethne? |
18883 | He did not tell you that? |
18883 | He gave you a hope? |
18883 | He left Halfa eight weeks ago, eh? |
18883 | He will wait? |
18883 | He wishes you to chuck your commission? |
18883 | Hit? |
18883 | How can I help it? 18883 How did he look?" |
18883 | How did it happen? |
18883 | How did it happen? |
18883 | How did you know? 18883 How do you do?" |
18883 | How do you do? |
18883 | How do you know that I was present? |
18883 | How do you know? |
18883 | How do you know? |
18883 | How long have I lain ill? |
18883 | How long shall you stay at Wiesbaden? |
18883 | How should he? 18883 How should one forget?" |
18883 | How soon will that be? 18883 How would you have taken it if I had?" |
18883 | How''s the leg? |
18883 | How? |
18883 | I am very sorry,said Ethne, with a smile;"but why have you been put to this trouble?" |
18883 | I may write? |
18883 | I saw your light that morning... you put it out suddenly... did you hear my step on the gravel?... 18883 I spoke brutally, did n''t I?" |
18883 | I thought that I would speak to you, because-- do you remember, a long time ago you gave me your card? 18883 I told him that too?" |
18883 | I was always pretty bad at appreciating music, was n''t I? 18883 I wonder why you did n''t go to the station and meet Colonel Durrance?" |
18883 | If you had not been engaged to me, you would still have sent in your papers? |
18883 | Impossible? |
18883 | Indeed? |
18883 | Into the desert? |
18883 | Is Durrance here? |
18883 | Is he dead? |
18883 | Is it a man or woman? |
18883 | Is it true? |
18883 | Is she not in the little garden by the water? |
18883 | It is Abou Fatma? |
18883 | It is nothing,he repeated in a sort of passionate obstinacy; but in his mind there ran another question,"Will the men with the camels wait?" |
18883 | It was Effendi Feversham, then? |
18883 | It was Mrs. Adair, I imagine, who proposed this plan that I should come home to Guessens and that you should stay with her here across the fields? |
18883 | It was a melody from this overture? |
18883 | It would not please you, then, to know where Harry Feversham has been, and how he has lived during the last five years? |
18883 | It''s a bit of a muddle, is n''t it? |
18883 | Just before I left England three years ago? |
18883 | Killed? |
18883 | Major Castleton is dead? |
18883 | May I come back? |
18883 | Mine? |
18883 | Mr. Feversham remained at Wadi Halfa, then? 18883 Must I go, father?" |
18883 | News of Harry Feversham? 18883 No? |
18883 | Nor on what business he has been engaged? |
18883 | Not you? |
18883 | Now,she said,"will you tell me, if you please, why the feathers have been sent?" |
18883 | Now? |
18883 | Now? |
18883 | Now? |
18883 | Of course, what? |
18883 | Of what are you thinking? |
18883 | Of what are you thinking? |
18883 | Of what? 18883 Oh, when, when?" |
18883 | Oh,observed Sutch,"and whom do you propose to visit?" |
18883 | Part company, you and I-- after the year in Omdurman, the weeks of flight? |
18883 | Possible? 18883 Ramelton, that was the name? |
18883 | Really? 18883 Shall I be able to keep up the pretence when we are married, when we are always together?" |
18883 | Shall I see you? |
18883 | She has married since? |
18883 | She refused you? |
18883 | So Miss Eustace told you the story,he said,"and showed you the feather?" |
18883 | So she has lost everything? |
18883 | So soon? |
18883 | So you never knew what brought Mr. Feversham to Halfa? |
18883 | So you never saw Mr. Feversham again? |
18883 | Something rather important? |
18883 | Suppose that Durrance had sat down on the top of us? |
18883 | Suppose that you had never met her, would you still have sent in your papers? |
18883 | That night? |
18883 | That''s rough luck, is n''t it? |
18883 | The arms? |
18883 | The go- between? |
18883 | The golden blot, eh, very low down? |
18883 | The man on the bedstead? |
18883 | The new camels are here? |
18883 | The oculist at Wiesbaden? |
18883 | Then do you bring more than friendship? |
18883 | Then how did you find out? |
18883 | Then how did you learn the story? |
18883 | Then how do you know Captain Willoughby brought good news of Harry Feversham? |
18883 | Then she is still at Ramelton? |
18883 | Then there is a chance? |
18883 | Then there is no hope? |
18883 | Then what in the world makes you think that there''s no chance? |
18883 | There is ammunition? |
18883 | There is no one to bring you food? |
18883 | There is something, then, to be concealed from him? |
18883 | They are good camels? |
18883 | They will be married soon? |
18883 | This overture? |
18883 | Three? |
18883 | To Dublin? 18883 To whom? |
18883 | To whom? |
18883 | Too late? 18883 Too late?" |
18883 | Was it about the feathers? |
18883 | Was the name Ethne? 18883 Was there?" |
18883 | We agreed, did n''t we, that no foolish misunderstandings should ever come between us? 18883 Well, well?" |
18883 | Well, what did he say? |
18883 | Well? 18883 Well?" |
18883 | Well? |
18883 | Well? |
18883 | Well? |
18883 | Well? |
18883 | Well? |
18883 | Well? |
18883 | Well? |
18883 | Were they justly sent? |
18883 | Were you afraid, too, of disgracing me? 18883 Were you ever thrown from your horse? |
18883 | What am I to do? |
18883 | What are they digging? |
18883 | What are you thinking about? |
18883 | What became of Mr. Feversham after he had given you that feather? |
18883 | What did he say? |
18883 | What do you mean? |
18883 | What do you mean? |
18883 | What does he want with us? 18883 What does it matter now?" |
18883 | What does it mean? |
18883 | What does it mean? |
18883 | What if I could compel Trench, Castleton, and Willoughby to take back from me, each in his turn, the feather he sent? 18883 What is your second item?" |
18883 | What plan? |
18883 | What shall I play to you? |
18883 | What should I do if I were crippled? |
18883 | What was I doing on the fifteenth? 18883 What will happen to him?" |
18883 | What will you do now? |
18883 | What will you have? |
18883 | What? |
18883 | When did you get back? |
18883 | When was that letter written? |
18883 | When was this? |
18883 | When? |
18883 | Where did you learn them? |
18883 | Where do you come from? |
18883 | Where has she gone? |
18883 | Which way will you go? |
18883 | Who knows of the feathers? 18883 Who knows? |
18883 | Who of you three first thought of sending the feathers? |
18883 | Who sent them? |
18883 | Who told her? 18883 Who told you of any fourth feather?" |
18883 | Why did n''t I speak that night? |
18883 | Why did you hide? |
18883 | Why in the world do you wish to see him? |
18883 | Why not? |
18883 | Why of course? |
18883 | Why should n''t we start the Crimean nights again? |
18883 | Why should they? |
18883 | Why suppose, since he did not? |
18883 | Why, then? |
18883 | Why? 18883 Why?" |
18883 | Why? |
18883 | Why? |
18883 | Why? |
18883 | Will he recover? |
18883 | Will she wait, do you think? |
18883 | Will they stop and eat? 18883 Will this make any difference?" |
18883 | Will you be good enough to give orders about my horse? |
18883 | Will you give it me, please? |
18883 | Will you go on? |
18883 | Will you repeat what you said? |
18883 | Will you smoke? |
18883 | Will you take it back? |
18883 | Will you take yours back? |
18883 | Will you tell me it? |
18883 | Will you tell me? |
18883 | Would he travel up to town so often to see his oculist if he had none? |
18883 | Yes, how did you find out? |
18883 | Yes, we must have a talk, must n''t we? |
18883 | Yes,said Feversham, briskly;"ibex, eh?" |
18883 | Yes? |
18883 | Yes? |
18883 | Yes? |
18883 | Yes? |
18883 | Yet you are glad that he is dead? |
18883 | You agree with that? 18883 You are disappointed? |
18883 | You are going? 18883 You are recommended to go?" |
18883 | You are still in Hill Street? |
18883 | You are sure-- quite sure? |
18883 | You are sure? |
18883 | You are sure? |
18883 | You disliked Major Castleton so much? |
18883 | You distrust me? |
18883 | You do not know Mrs. Adair, I think? |
18883 | You gave the feathers back into Feversham''s hand--"He told you that himself? |
18883 | You give him nothing to eat or drink? |
18883 | You have actually seen him? |
18883 | You have forgotten me? |
18883 | You have heard nothing of it? |
18883 | You have kept them? |
18883 | You have never come across him, I suppose? |
18883 | You have news for me? |
18883 | You have noticed the change in her to- night? |
18883 | You have played upon it? 18883 You have seen him?" |
18883 | You have spoken to him? 18883 You have them? |
18883 | You have told me everything? |
18883 | You know Castleton''s address? |
18883 | You know him? |
18883 | You know that? |
18883 | You mean the Arab who can come and go between Omdurman and the Egyptian frontier? |
18883 | You mean, shall I leave the service? |
18883 | You mean-- one must look to the brain? |
18883 | You received my telegram in time, then? |
18883 | You remember that last reconnaissance we made from Suakin? |
18883 | You remember the telegram I showed to you? |
18883 | You return to Dublin, I suppose? |
18883 | You saw us? |
18883 | You saw your oculist yesterday? |
18883 | You spoke to him? |
18883 | You understand English? |
18883 | You were helping some one to escape? 18883 You were in the church, then? |
18883 | You were wounded there? 18883 You will come back, sir, to- night?" |
18883 | You will live there alone? |
18883 | You will promise? |
18883 | You will write from Wiesbaden? 18883 You?" |
18883 | Yours, too, I hope,Mrs. Adair answered, and she exclaimed:"How could I go on keeping silence? |
18883 | ''Am I a coward?'' |
18883 | A weary, trying life, do n''t you think? |
18883 | Adair?" |
18883 | Adair?" |
18883 | After all, what did it matter whether Durrance knew, whether every man knew, from the South Pole to the North, since she, Ethne, knew? |
18883 | After the third visit Durrance said to her:--"Do you remember that I once mentioned a famous oculist at Wiesbaden? |
18883 | Am I a coward? |
18883 | And Ethne?... |
18883 | And he asked,"Who is Sutch?" |
18883 | And he to you? |
18883 | And then he cast up his arms and cried aloud:"Will they never come up the Nile, the gunboats and the soldiers? |
18883 | And then you come whom I greatly value, and you say quietly,''Will you please spoil my career too?''" |
18883 | And then, Ethne? |
18883 | And what''s friendship worth?" |
18883 | And why? |
18883 | And will one be perpetually on one''s guard? |
18883 | And you?" |
18883 | Any little thing which I had given you in the other days?" |
18883 | Are you curious, Willoughby? |
18883 | Are you going?" |
18883 | At Berber? |
18883 | Breaks my pate across? |
18883 | But can this soldier find work so suitable? |
18883 | But how did you find out? |
18883 | But it would n''t make life easier for a wife, would it? |
18883 | But put it this way: Women look backwards, we look ahead; so misfortune hits them harder, eh?" |
18883 | But the pines?" |
18883 | But to each question Feversham replied:--"How should a Greek know of these matters?" |
18883 | But was there really more misunderstanding than wrong? |
18883 | But what in the world should I do if I had to sit in a chair all my days? |
18883 | But what should I do if I had to sit in a chair all my days?" |
18883 | But what was he doing at Wadi Halfa, masquerading with this itinerant troupe? |
18883 | But what when we came to live under the same roof, and there were no visits to the oculist, when we saw each other every hour of every day? |
18883 | But why? |
18883 | But you do not know?" |
18883 | But, my gentleman, did you know me for yours?" |
18883 | By choosing which of them could she fulfil her determination? |
18883 | By what means was that possibility to be avoided? |
18883 | Ca n''t you imagine him, then, picking it out sedulously and laboriously on the strings? |
18883 | Can you read the riddle of that feather?" |
18883 | Can you tell me if this house is called The Pool?" |
18883 | Captain Willoughby was in peril, and Harry came to his aid?" |
18883 | Curious that, eh? |
18883 | Did he guess that her letter was sent out of pity? |
18883 | Did he know enough to be able so to refer to him? |
18883 | Did he know of the telegram? |
18883 | Did he need money?" |
18883 | Did he suspect, she asked herself? |
18883 | Did she misjudge him? |
18883 | Did you ever come across an Arab called Abou Fatma?" |
18883 | Did you ever hear of a constable called Bastable?" |
18883 | Did you ever see his house in Warwickshire? |
18883 | Did you take back your feather? |
18883 | Did you?" |
18883 | Do n''t you see that? |
18883 | Do n''t you think so, too? |
18883 | Do n''t you think that you will come to feel Colonel Durrance, in spite of your will, something of a hindrance and a drag? |
18883 | Do n''t you understand?" |
18883 | Do these two men understand English?" |
18883 | Do you know the camel''s way? |
18883 | Do you know the little back streets in a manufacturing town? |
18883 | Do you know these men?" |
18883 | Do you know when the ducks start quacking in St. James''s Park?" |
18883 | Do you remember the day? |
18883 | Do you remember the lines? |
18883 | Do you remember what you said when the morning came through the blinds? |
18883 | Does he say where?" |
18883 | Does n''t it seem strange to you, too? |
18883 | Does n''t that help you to understand?" |
18883 | Durrance answered her quite gently:--"Have I no reason to distrust you? |
18883 | Durrance had never in his life paid him a friendly visit before, and why should he go out of his way to do so now? |
18883 | Durrance put another question:--"How did you find out?" |
18883 | El Kaimakam Trench? |
18883 | Else why should I be here?" |
18883 | Ethne? |
18883 | Feversham had spoken his words with difficulty, not looking at his companion, and he continued with his eyes still averted:--"Do you understand? |
18883 | For a while they lay side by side in silence, breathing the cool night air, and then Trench said:--"Are you awake?" |
18883 | For if she failed, what had this friend of his any longer left? |
18883 | From Berber? |
18883 | From Omdurman? |
18883 | Harry, why did n''t you let me speak? |
18883 | Has she to- day learnt that she misjudged him?" |
18883 | Have I not?" |
18883 | Have they forgotten us in England? |
18883 | Have you anything to tell me?" |
18883 | He gave up the attempt and asked:--"Are Harry Feversham and his wife in town?" |
18883 | He had schooled himself in the tongue, he had lived in the bazaars, to no end? |
18883 | He is dead?" |
18883 | He said to the landlady who waited upon him:--"So Lennon House has been burned down? |
18883 | He saw the fanatical faces crowding fiercely about him... were not mutilations practised?... |
18883 | He turned again to the centre of the room and asked abruptly:--"You are going back to Glenalla?" |
18883 | He turned back to his letter and again Sutch asked:--"Anything more?" |
18883 | He was still the craven who had sent in his papers? |
18883 | How dare he sit in judgment upon the meanest of his fellows, let alone Harry Feversham? |
18883 | How did he know that I was here?" |
18883 | How long before they discover you are gone?" |
18883 | How many people?" |
18883 | How was he to re- create his life? |
18883 | How was the secret of his disgrace to be most easily concealed? |
18883 | I can get about, ca n''t I? |
18883 | I do n''t understand that, do you? |
18883 | I should not have asked him,''Where is Harry Feversham?'' |
18883 | I think we met-- let me see-- where was it? |
18883 | Is n''t it possible that he may come to feel that too? |
18883 | Is that the man?" |
18883 | Is this the end?" |
18883 | It occurred to Durrance that it was not a natural place at which to stop; Willoughby might have been expected to add,"Why do you ask me?" |
18883 | It seemed to Sutch that they uttered a question, and, rightly or wrongly, he interpreted the question into words:--"Are you blind?" |
18883 | It was horrible, do n''t you think?" |
18883 | Laura, have n''t you noticed? |
18883 | May I trespass upon you for a night''s lodging?" |
18883 | Now you are going back to the Soudan, Willoughby?" |
18883 | Of whom do you think he spoke?" |
18883 | Oh, to Harry?" |
18883 | Once his attention was diverted by a word from Feversham, and he answered without turning his head:--"What is it?" |
18883 | Or more than one white feather? |
18883 | Or was it merely by chance that his words were so strikingly apposite? |
18883 | Or you heard us upon the steps? |
18883 | Or you met-- him as he rode away?" |
18883 | Perhaps you have business with her?" |
18883 | Perhaps you spoke to him?" |
18883 | Perhaps you will be wanting to see her?" |
18883 | Plucks off my beard, and blows it in my face? |
18883 | Relief will be given at all events; but more? |
18883 | Shall I give you an instance? |
18883 | Shall I open them?" |
18883 | Shall I tell you why? |
18883 | She saw Harry Feversham bending over his zither, and at once she asked herself,"What was he doing with that troupe?" |
18883 | Six months,--what are they?" |
18883 | Suppose that a white feather had been forwarded to Lennon House, and had been opened in Ethne''s presence? |
18883 | Suppose the face in the crowd is a mask, what then? |
18883 | That is so, is n''t it?" |
18883 | That seems cruel? |
18883 | That some accident happened to Colonel Durrance yesterday in London?" |
18883 | That''s it?" |
18883 | The fourth one?" |
18883 | The middle of the month, was n''t it? |
18883 | The story is curious, eh?" |
18883 | Then she asked:--"You have that letter with you?" |
18883 | Then she said:--"I wonder whether you have forgotten our drive from Ramelton to our house when I came to fetch you from the quay? |
18883 | Then she said:--"You belong to Colonel Durrance''s regiment, perhaps?" |
18883 | Then the man in the blue gown has gone?" |
18883 | Then you knew?" |
18883 | There still remained the question, what was Harry Feversham, disgraced and ruined, now to do? |
18883 | These four years of anticipation were as nothing, then? |
18883 | They were sent to you in jest? |
18883 | Was I in any way the cause that you resigned?" |
18883 | Was it Feversham? |
18883 | Was it right, he began to ask, that a man should even try? |
18883 | Was it? |
18883 | Was it?" |
18883 | Was that the reason why you went away?" |
18883 | Was the whole thing a lure to which we have not the clue? |
18883 | Was the woman''s name Ethne? |
18883 | Well?" |
18883 | Were you wounded?" |
18883 | What can I say to him?" |
18883 | What can have been his business with Durrance? |
18883 | What cruelties might not be practised? |
18883 | What did these persistent questions matter, since the feathers had come, since her ring lay flickering and winking on the table? |
18883 | What has become of Harry?" |
18883 | What then? |
18883 | What was I doing?" |
18883 | What was it playing? |
18883 | What were the first words?" |
18883 | What will you do with them?" |
18883 | What would it have mattered? |
18883 | What''s the object?" |
18883 | When I was delirious in the prison there, I said nothing of it, I breathed no word of it? |
18883 | When I was in the drawing- room alone and you came to the window, how much did you hear? |
18883 | When do you leave for Ireland?" |
18883 | When she said that she needed to be assured that she had sure friends, did she not mean that she needed their companionship? |
18883 | When was that?" |
18883 | When?" |
18883 | Where are they?" |
18883 | Where is he now?" |
18883 | Where then? |
18883 | Whereas now--""Whereas now?" |
18883 | Which way did Ethne go?" |
18883 | Who calls me villain? |
18883 | Who could this visitor have been whom he meets in the street of Tewfikieh, and who must come so secretly to Wadi Halfa? |
18883 | Who else?" |
18883 | Who is paying?" |
18883 | Who knows when a chance of escape may come?" |
18883 | Who knows? |
18883 | Who? |
18883 | Why did it never take place?" |
18883 | Why did n''t you? |
18883 | Why did you interfere?" |
18883 | Why did you not bring this feather to me last summer?" |
18883 | Why did you tell me of Captain Willoughby''s coming? |
18883 | Why have you come?" |
18883 | Why was his engagement with Miss Eustace broken off? |
18883 | Why? |
18883 | Why?" |
18883 | Why?" |
18883 | Will you give it to me, please?" |
18883 | Will you give me your arm?" |
18883 | Will you take them, please?" |
18883 | Will you, if you please, take back your ring?" |
18883 | Would friendship speak from it or the something more than friendship? |
18883 | Would the girl, he wondered, understand as clearly? |
18883 | Would the woman over in Ireland understand? |
18883 | Yet what more could he do? |
18883 | Yet when the moment of action comes sharp and immediate, does he fail?" |
18883 | Yet when the moment of action comes, sharp and immediate, does he fail? |
18883 | You are going back at once to Kingsbridge? |
18883 | You are surprised that I was clever enough to find out the truth by the exercise of my own wits?" |
18883 | You have a plan of escape?" |
18883 | You have money?" |
18883 | You have seen, I suppose?" |
18883 | You have the particulars? |
18883 | You know, Jack?" |
18883 | You remember Mather, I suppose? |
18883 | You remember the night before he started?" |
18883 | You remember?" |
18883 | You were in prison at Omdurman and escaped? |
18883 | You will go to- morrow?" |
18883 | You would have married me and hidden it, had not these three feathers come?" |
18883 | You wrote to him?" |
18883 | and he shouted aloud to his neighbour-- for in that clamour nothing less than a shout was audible--"Is it you, Ibrahim?" |
18883 | have they forgotten us?" |
18883 | said Dawson,"and who was the visitor?" |
18883 | said Durrance, suddenly; and immediately upon the question he asked another,"What makes you jump?" |
