3737I believe you''re a partner of Theodore Watling''s now are n''t you? 3737 If I love you, Maude?"
3737If you had made up your mind to do it, why did you tell me?
3737Is he thinking of doing all that?
3737Is it?
3737Is n''t that a rather one- sided view, too?
3737Is that all he objects to?
3737Is that you, Mr. Paret? 3737 It is n''t pleasant to think that there are such people as the politicians, is it?"
3737It''s Grierson, ai n''t it?
3737Jim voted for Bill 709 all right-- didn''t he?
3737Jim,asked the Colonel, gently,"did n''t I always take care of you?"

3737Say, Colonel,he demanded,"what''s this bill that went into the judiciary this morning?"
3737Say, you would n''t take me for a sentimental man, now, would you?
3737She is pretty, that Mrs. Durrett, and clever,--is it not so?
3737So you are Mrs. Hambleton Durrett?
3737So you think I ai n''t on?
3737That''s all very well, Fred,Dickinson objected presently,"but how are your prospective householders going to get out there?"
3737The young fellow in the grey suit? 3737 Then why, in heaven''s name, are you going to marry him?"
3737They talk about monopoly, those Populist senators, but I ask you what is a man in my place to do? 3737 This city?"

3737Want me, Colonel?
3737Was Krebs here?
3737Watling send you over here?
3737Well, Hugh, were you dreaming?
3737Well, Mr. Paret,he asked softly,"what''s up?"

3737Who is this man Krebs?
3737Who was he?
3737Who was the lawyer?
3737Why could n''t you have held fast to your faith? 3737 Why did n''t Miller Gorse let me know about it, instead of licking up a fuss after it''s all over?"...
3737Why did n''t somebody tell me?
3737Why did n''t you let me see that you still cared?
3737Why did n''t you tell me about it before?
3737Why do you say that?
3737Why not Paret?
3737Why not judge this bill by its face, without heeding a cock and bull story as to how it may have originated? 3737 Why not?"
3737Why not?
3737Why should any sensible man, a member of the legislature, take stock in that kind of gossip?
3737Why should n''t I marry him?
3737Why should n''t she let you?
3737Why should n''t you tell me, Hugh, if it''s so?
3737Why should you be-- even if there were anything to be jealous about? 3737 Why the deuce should she marry Ham?
3737Why, where''s Tom?
3737Wo n''t he-- listen to reason?
3737Would n''t you be accomplishing more,I inquired,"if you had n''t antagonized the Hutchinses?"
3737You are getting what you have always wanted, are n''t you?
3737You are right to come back to business, and after awhile you can have another honeymoon, eh? 3737 You did n''t see in the papers that he was nominated,--did you, Paret?"
3737You do like her?
3737You do n''t want to take it back?
3737You here?
3737You mean that he''s in the employ of the Ribblevale people?
3737You see what I have let you in for?
3737You think he''ll get elected-- do you?
3737You were going into the law, were n''t you?
3737You''d never guess what the inside was like, would you, Hugh?

3737You''ve never regretted going into law?
3737You-- you love him?
3737''By what means?''"
3737A man would lose his self- respect if he did n''t let out his mind at them hoss thieves, would n''t he?
3737After all, what could they prove?
3737And after all this time would n''t it seem like an intrusion?"
3737And after all, when we have good appetites and are fairly happy, why should we complain?"
3737And do you remember the time when you made the boat, and we went to Logan''s Pond, and you sank in her?"
3737And how long do you think was my first?
3737And was it not just this sustenance she could give that I needed?
3737And what was to be done about it?
3737And while I do not expect to be able to delay its passage much longer than the time I shall be on my feet--""Then why not sit down?"
3737And you''ll forgive me, wo n''t you, for being so horrid to- day, of all days?
3737And, since the Almighty did not limit the latter, why should man attempt to limit the former?
3737Are you going to the Club?"
3737But I''m not that any more,--I''m simply recalling that, do n''t you see?
3737But father could n''t run the mills at a loss-- could he?"
3737But for me?
3737But was I?
3737But what is it they do for me?
3737But what is the use of regrets?"
3737But why blame me for getting a franchise for a company in the only manner in which, under present conditions, a franchise can be got?
3737But why not?
3737But would she remain docile?
3737But-- did not he in his own person represent the triumph of that American creed of opportunity?
3737Ca n''t you see that she does n''t care for the things that amuse me, that make my life?"
3737Could I rise now to the ideal that had once been mine, thrust henceforth evil out of my life?
3737Could it be that she were enjoying my discomfiture?
3737Did I feel that loyalty towards a single human being?
3737Did I really care for her?
3737Did I really want her?
3737Did Nancy still care for me?
3737Did he inquire what the party worker thought of Mr. Watling for the Senate?
3737Did you like him?"
3737Did you notice how some of them stared at us, as though they were but half awake in the heat, with that glow on their faces?
3737Do they invite me to their houses, to their parties?"
3737Do you follow me?"
3737Do you see that fellow gettin''up to talk now?
3737Do you suppose it mattered to me whether you went to Harvard with the others?
3737Do you think Nancy would like them?"
3737Do you think the day will come when statesmanship will recognize this need?"
3737Do you think they would undermine you, and to me, behind your back?"
3737Do you want me to invite him to dinner?"
3737Do you want the city to stand still?
3737Five thousand dollars?
3737Good God, have n''t you got enough, Hugh,--enough success and enough money, without going into a thing like this Riverside scheme?"
3737Gorse gave you a letter to the Governor, did n''t he?"
3737Guess you had more to do with that bill than came out in the newspapers-- eh?"
3737Had he no memories of the terrors of that struggle?...
3737Had not the honest Americans and Germans become foremen and even presidents of corporations?
3737Has he accepted a pass from the Railroad?"
3737Has he ever made a study of the other side of the question-- the competition side?
3737He was in my class at Harvard.... Is he still here?"
3737Honeymoons can wait-- eh?"
3737How about a thousand apiece for five of us boys?"
3737How about it, Jim?"
3737How can you doubt their loyalty, and mine?
3737How did He, or It, like to be trifled with in this way?
3737How did it happen?"
3737How long is it, Billy?"
3737How much was it you paid Dr. Stickney, in New York, Adolf?
3737How was the Governor, Trulease?"
3737Hugh, was there anything the matter?
3737I believe in the young men, and I have already seen something of you-- so?"...
3737I did not pause to reflect that the Colonel''s attitude, from his point of view( yes, and from mine,--had I not adopted it?)
3737I never leave my good Democratic friends on the outside, do I?"
3737I reckon he is useful down there in Washington, but say, do you know what he always reminded me of?
3737If I were an enigma to them, what must they have thought of him?
3737If Nancy Durrett symbolized aristocracy, established order and prestige, what did Mrs. Scherer represent?
3737If you do n''t eat, somebody eats you-- is it not so?
3737In the absence of these, who were the opposition?
3737Is he in trouble?"
3737Is there a man so dead as not to feel a thrill at this achievement?
3737It is a good bill, or a bad bill?
3737It is not like it was but where is it all leading, my friend?
3737It may be asked why the Railroad should bother itself by lending its political organization to private corporations?
3737Just as soon as this is introduced we''ll have Gates and Armstrong down here-- they''re the Ribblevale attorneys, are n''t they?
3737Love forever, live always in this sanctuary she had made for me?
3737Now, provided the conditions are not as good as they might be, how are you going to improve them if you find yourself isolated here, as you say?"
3737Oh, why did you change?"
3737Only-- don''t you think you are a little too sensitive about yourself, when you are teased?"
3737Paret?"
3737Perhaps Mr. Paret would like to look about the grounds?"
3737Scherer?"
3737Shall I tell you the smartest thing you ever did?"
3737She lives in that place you''ve been going to so much, lately,--doesn''t she?"
3737She was not made for poverty-- and who so well as she was fitted for the social leadership of our community?
3737Sit down, wo n''t you?"
3737Suddenly, from the back of the hall, a voice called out:--"How about House Bill 709?"
3737Suppose there were a God after all?
3737Was I sure that I wanted her-- for life?
3737Was it not what I had desired?
3737Was it possible that she had felt nothing and I all?
3737Was it?"
3737Was n''t it understood, when that avenue was laid out, that it was to form part of the system of boulevards?"
3737Watling?"
3737What chance had a poor man against such a moloch as the railroad, even with a lawyer of such ability as had been exhibited by Hermann Krebs?
3737What do you know about him?"
3737What greater vindication for their philosophy could be desired?
3737What had I done?
3737What has got into the politicians, that they are indulging in such foolishness?"
3737What is left for us, Paret?"
3737What is left?
3737What is that but enterprise, and business foresight, and taking risks?
3737What other career is open to a woman?
3737What right had he to be contented with life?
3737What should I say?
3737What was Maude Hutchins to me?
3737What was the situation in this county and in that?
3737What''s that fellow''s name?"
3737When do you wish to have them for dinner?"
3737Who is he?
3737Why could n''t he have remained in Elkington?
3737Why did he have to follow me here, to make capital out of a case that might never have been heard of except for him?...
3737Why wo n''t you tell me more of what you are doing?
3737Why, indeed, was I not mad about all three of them?
3737Why, pray, should the people complain, when they had everything done for them?
3737Would I be happy with Nancy, after all?
3737Would Maude have relapsed into this senseless fit if she had realized how fortunate she was?
3737Would the public feel like that, if they only knew?...
3737Would the time come when I should feel a sense of bondage?...
3737You ought to know her well enough to understand how she''d feel if she discovered some of McAlery''s financial coups?
3737You understand?"
3737You want to be somebody,--isn''t that it?
3737You will forgive me for saying what I think to young men?"
3737You''ll have some tea, wo n''t you?"
3737and was it in her nature to take ultimately the position that was desirable for my wife?
3737or even towards Nancy?
3737or to cooperate with England in some undertaking for the world''s benefit because we contended that she ruled India with an iron hand?
3737or was it that my marriage had failed to satisfy and absorb me?
3737the national situation?
3737towards Maude herself-- my wife?
43071A crowd?
43071Alive? 43071 Alps?
43071And my shoes, sir,--I did not ask to have them polished, did I?
43071And-- and I_ may_ have a chance even now?
43071Are you Mr. Van Pycke?
43071Are you coming away with me?
43071Are you coming?
43071Are you dreadfully cut up about it?
43071Are you in earnest?
43071Are you jesting?
43071Are you quite sure you love her, dad?
43071Are you-- alive?
43071Are you-- are you sure that you are Mr. Van Pycke? 43071 Bellows, do you suppose there''s a dry pair of trousers in the house?
43071Bellows, is my nose frozen?
43071Bellows, who is in the drawing- room?
43071Bellows,hissed Mr. Van Pycke,"who instructed you to take my trousers out to press''em?"
43071Bite? 43071 Bosworth,"put in Mr. Van Pycke, in deadly tones,"where is your cab?"
43071By the way, why are you not in bed? 43071 By thunder, they_ do n''t_ fit him, do they?
43071Ca n''t we have a tree?
43071Ca n''t you see, dad? 43071 Ca n''t you tell me more about the wedding?"
43071Can it be that I am in the wrong house?
43071Can you keep a secret?
43071Celebrating what?
43071Changing it for what?
43071Coming- out party?
43071De Foe? 43071 Do I know them?"
43071Do it? 43071 Do n''t you ever_ buy_ cigarets, Sticky?"
43071Do n''t you recognize my voice?
43071Do n''t you remember me, Tobias?
43071Do they still hurt you?
43071Do what?
43071Do you call her Charlotte?
43071Do you know these gents, Miss Downing?
43071Do you know,he said, irrelevant but serious to the point of perplexing her,"I believe I''ve never had you out of my mind during all these years?
43071Do you like dogs, Mr. Van Pycke?
43071Do you mind being left alone with them for a few minutes?
43071Do you mind if I pick some of the cotton out of your hair?
43071Do you profess to be any better than the rest of them, Mr. Van Pycke? 43071 Do you really feel the need of that eyeglass, Mr. Van Pycke?"
43071Do you really have to marry some one, Buzzy? 43071 Do you remember her name?"
43071Do you suppose the Purdwells went out_ without_ thinking?
43071Do you think I''m going to stay all night?
43071Do-- do you mean to tell me you have n''t heard what I''ve been saying to you?
43071Do? 43071 Does that star signify anything, gents?
43071Eh?
43071Fishy?
43071Good heaven,he muttered,"where am I?
43071Good? 43071 Great fun?
43071Happy? 43071 Has everybody departed?"
43071Have I fallen in your estimation?
43071Have something, Knapp? 43071 Have you been down here all this time?"
43071Have you broken the news to your father?
43071Have you seen''em yet?
43071He is? 43071 Her gown?"
43071Hold the wire, Miss?
43071How about De Foe? 43071 How many of them are there?"
43071How should I know?
43071How the devil am I to see your number? 43071 How''s your husband?"
43071How-- how does he happen to be loose?
43071I beg pardon? 43071 I hear she is quite devoted to Chauncey De Foe,--or is it the other way?"
43071I know, Bosworth, dear,she said quaintly,"but would you mind taking a little care of me now?
43071I meant to say, are you the only live one in-- in the crowd?
43071I wonder what''s up?
43071If you''re what you say you are, why do n''t you call in the footman to identify you?
43071In the end?
43071Indeed?
43071Into the newspapers? 43071 Is he dangerous?"
43071Is n''t it nice, Mr. Van Pycke?
43071Is that why you are Mrs. De Foe''s secretary?
43071Is that you, Bosworth?
43071Is that you, Miss Downing?
43071Is the poor fellow naked?
43071Is what I hear true, Bosworth?
43071Is your mistress at home, Bellows?
43071Is your mistress engaged, Bellows?
43071It does seem too good to be true, does n''t it? 43071 It''s all come back to me--""Do n''t you think we''d better go in where the children are?"
43071It-- it ai n''t Mr. Van Pycke? 43071 It_ is_ droll, is n''t it?"
43071Know her?
43071Lost, sir? 43071 May I ask what you were representing?"
43071May I come in and get warm?
43071Me?
43071More or less scandal about her, is n''t there?
43071Moving? 43071 My room?"
43071No trains until this afternoon?
43071Not-- not a chorus girl?
43071Noticed them?
43071Oh, they do, do they?
43071Oh, you mean these freaks? 43071 On the train?"
43071On twelve thousand a year? 43071 Over night?"
43071Princeton? 43071 Rexford?
43071Say, Buzzy, what do you think of the waxies?
43071Say, did you fellers see that thing in the paper''s mor-- this morning about the party?
43071Scoville? 43071 Secretary?
43071See that man back there without trousers? 43071 She''s-- she''s gone and got married to Chauncey De Foe?"
43071Spilled something on it?
43071Terrible night, is n''t it, Blanche?
43071The old man did n''t come here without pants, did he? 43071 These confounded servants are so--""Wo n''t you sit down?"
43071Think I''m blind, Stockton? 43071 To see me?"
43071Used to be?
43071Van Pycke? 43071 Was her name Pembroke?"
43071Was it so plain as all that, Mr. Van Pycke?
43071Was n''t it fun?
43071Wha-- what did you do, sir?
43071What did you say?
43071What do you mean?
43071What has that to do with it?
43071What is all this leading up to?
43071What is he doing?
43071What is it?
43071What is it?
43071What party?
43071What station is this?
43071What the dev-- Ask who what?
43071What the devil amuses you?
43071What the devil does he mean by that, Bosworth?
43071What the devil is the meaning of all this, sir? 43071 What the devil''s the meaning of all this?"
43071What was that fellow saying to you?
43071What''s got into you, Buzzy? 43071 What''s the meaning of all this?"
43071What''s up? 43071 What?
43071When are you leaving?
43071Where are we?
43071Where are you, Bosworth?
43071Where are you?
43071Where the devil have you been?
43071Where''d you get them pants?
43071Where''s the groom?
43071Where''s your father, Buzzy?
43071Where_ has_ your father gone, Mr. Van Pycke?
43071Who is Miss Downing? 43071 Who is it?"
43071Who is she, dad?
43071Who''s this Rexford chap?
43071Who-- who is it, my boy? 43071 Why are you here, sir?"
43071Why did n''t you go out before?
43071Why do n''t you go upstairs and change''em?
43071Why not? 43071 Will he bite?"
43071Will you play bear for me?
43071Wo n''t you sit down? 43071 Would it be too much trouble for you to stop for me on your way down, Bosworth?"
43071You are a very good friend of Mrs. Sco-- Mrs. De Foe''s, are you not?
43071You do n''t think I''m as useless as the rest of''em think I am, do you, George?
43071You do?
43071You do?
43071You knew then?
43071You mean that to apply to yourself or to me?
43071You mean_ young_ Jim Scoville?
43071You''re a bit sarcastic, are n''t you? 43071 You''re not going to invite me to a dog dinner, are you?"
43071You''re not going?
43071You''ve never heard anything particularly terrible about me, have you?
43071You''ve noticed them?
43071You, sir? 43071 You-- to be a secretary?"
43071You-- you think it likely, Bellows? 43071 You?
43071You_ do_ think I''ll make good, do n''t you?
43071Your salary? 43071 ''Gad, sir, what do you think? 43071 A clock in the hall struck once, but how was he to know whether it signified one o''clock or half- past something else? 43071 A corrupse?
43071A four- wheeler?"
43071An old family?"
43071And he was going upstairs to-- by the virtue of all the saints, what_ did_ he mean?
43071And what are you going to do?
43071And you did n''t say anything about stopping in the middle of the block for the night, did you?
43071And-- I say, what time''s it getting to be?
43071Anything else?"
43071Are we lost?"
43071Are you lost?"
43071Are you ready to go?"
43071Are you so hard up as all that?"
43071As Mr. Krosson''s secretary, you would n''t think of discussing his affairs, would you?"
43071Beastly night, is n''t it?"
43071Beastly night, is n''t it?"
43071Billings?
43071But they are having a good time, are n''t they?"
43071By the way, Knapp, do you happen to know Jim Scoville''s widow?"
43071By the way, what train do you take in the morning?"
43071Ca n''t I give you a lift in my taxicab?
43071Can you be ready at half- past ten?"
43071Catch the point?
43071Come upstairs, wo n''t you, please?
43071Could this hobbling, ill- dressed person be the fastidious Van Dieman Van Pycke, of whom she had heard so much?
43071Demmit all, trousers do n''t grow on chandeliers, do they?
43071Did n''t you see in the papers that they played a new game between the Bridge and the pantry?
43071Do n''t tell the fellows, will you?
43071Do n''t you expect to dress for dinner, sir?"
43071Do what?"
43071Do you happen to know Agrippa?
43071Do you know her?"
43071Do you remember?"
43071Do you see?"
43071Do you suppose any one would give me a trial?"
43071Eight forty- five?
43071Ever try that fine old brandy, Knapp?"
43071Fine work, me lettin''you go upstairs, eh?
43071Gentlemen who go to work always do that, do n''t they, whether they''re qualified or not?"
43071Good heavens, you do n''t mean to say she''s going to let the papers in on this?"
43071Has n''t she?
43071Have you a notion, sir, as to the size?"
43071Have you ever read of Lily Bart?
43071He''s the bell- cow, is n''t he?"
43071He''s--""Agrippa?
43071Here?
43071His spots or his mind?"
43071How are you, Knapp?
43071How can you be insulted?
43071How could you know?
43071How do you happen to be here?
43071How-- how dare you?"
43071I can''t--""A clothing store model?"
43071I could n''t pick off a pair, à la Santa Claus, could I?
43071I look like a waxwork, do I?
43071I meant to speak to you about it in--""Will ten do, dad?
43071I say, Buzzy, are you listening?"
43071I say, who''s the girl talking to Tommy Rexford?"
43071I''ll have pneumonia anyhow, so what''s the sense of taking care of myself?
43071I-- I thought I let you out at Purdwell''s?"
43071I-- I was asked, was n''t I?"
43071I-- I--""Were you horribly frightened?"
43071I--""Mr. Van Pycke?
43071If you belong here, why ai n''t you out there eatin''with the rest of''em?"
43071In this house?
43071Is every one in bed?"
43071Is he in that crowd over there?"
43071Is it a barricade?"
43071Is n''t she too nice?"
43071Is that all right?"
43071Is that it, Mr. Van Pycke?"
43071It''s pretty rough, though, do n''t you think, Miss Downing?"
43071Lookin''for Buzzy?"
43071May I come down to Princeton for the afternoon and evening?"
43071May I inquire where your own home is, Miss Pembroke?"
43071Mr. Stockton volunteered:"Changing what?
43071People invite monkeys to dinner and the papers are not denied the facts, are they?
43071Please press that button for me, will you, Knapp?
43071Scoville''s?"
43071Scoville?"
43071See?
43071She looked at the young man with unmistakable interest-- or was it curiosity?
43071Shocking, you''d say?
43071Some of''em came over in the Ark-- or was it the''Mayflower''?"
43071Some one coming down the chimney?
43071That suddenly?"
43071That would simplify matters, would n''t it?"
43071That''s what you mean?"
43071The bare- legged, bare- footed chap?
43071Then it is true?"
43071There''s a lot more I could tell, but-- what''s the use?
43071They have banquets for dogs and picnics for cats, do n''t they?
43071Understand?"
43071Up for three nights--""Do you recognize these trousers?"
43071Was he losing his senses?
43071Wha-- what are you doing here?"
43071What could I do?
43071What do you think I am?
43071What good have I done?
43071What the devil are you laughing at, sir?"
43071What the devil''s the meaning of all this?"
43071What time is it?
43071What was the sense in having a son if it were not to better the breed?
43071What were you saying?"
43071What would your poor mother say?
43071What you laughin''at?
43071What''s the matter with you?
43071What, in God''s name, are you doing here?
43071When did you come in here?"
43071Where are you?
43071Where have I seen her before?"
43071Where the deuce is the man?
43071Where the devil is Bos-- I say, Knapp, can you see the length of the room?
43071Where''d you get them pants, you?"
43071Who is it?"
43071Who is it?"
43071Who would have dreamed it?"
43071Who''d marry a secretary?"
43071Who''s he?"
43071Why did n''t you say so?"
43071Why did n''t you send in your card?"
43071Why do you set yourself above them?"
43071Why?"
43071Will you step inside?"
43071Will you wait, sir?"
43071You have never--""It''s an awful night, is n''t it, dad?
43071You knew her?
43071You really were?"
43071You really wo n''t mind dropping me up town, will you, Bosworth?
43071You say the Lackaday is back there in the next block?"
43071You?"
43071You_ do_ know her well enough to wish her happiness, do n''t you?"
3738A dummy company?
3738A surprise?
3738A threat?
3738After me? 3738 And Jason agrees?"
3738And are there, then, no''over- beliefs''?
3738And how did he strike you?
3738And leave here?
3738And what difference does it make? 3738 And what else have you been doing?"
3738And when they do?
3738And why should n''t we have the best?
3738And you,--you never married, did you?
3738And you?
3738And you?
3738And-- it was full?
3738And-- we shall turn?
3738Are n''t those rather modern sentiments, for you, Maude?
3738Are n''t we going to have a tree, father?
3738Are n''t you coming back-- ever?
3738Are n''t you pleased?
3738Are n''t you rather severe in your judgments?
3738Are you busy, Hugh?
3738Are you sure-- he is the best, Hugh?
3738Are you warm enough?
3738But ca n''t we work out our beliefs together?
3738But for me?
3738But if I think it wise?
3738But if the force drawing us together, that has always drawn us together, is God?
3738But if you care for me--?
3738But suppose you do n''t get what you want?
3738But the Church,I was moved by some untraced thought to ask,"you believe there is a future for the Church?"
3738But the sentiment-- come now-- the sentiment? 3738 But what''s to be done?"
3738But where do you intend to go in Europe?
3738But who is going to decree how much property, a man should have?
3738But why did n''t you drop me a line, let me know when you were coming?
3738But why-- why are you doing this?
3738But you are accusing me--"Of what?
3738But you''re not sorry?
3738But,I exclaimed, a little exasperated,"you did n''t expect to live here always, did you?
3738Did Krebs say that?
3738Did you have a good trip, Hugh?
3738Do n''t be banal.... What is the colour?
3738Do n''t you think you''ve overdrawn things, Maude exaggerated them? 3738 Do n''t you?"
3738Do you ever get back to Cambridge in these days?
3738Do you know how I feel sometimes? 3738 Do you live down here, in this part of the city?"
3738Do you mean to say you''ve fixed it?
3738Do you mean-- that we should renounce?
3738Do you mean--?
3738Do you mind going?
3738Do you remember the story of the Prodigal Son?
3738Do you think I could see him-- for a moment?
3738Do you think I have n''t suffered, too? 3738 Do you think I''d change it?
3738Do you think they increase your value to me, Hugh?
3738Doing what?
3738Dump it where?
3738Ever read Carlyle''s''French Revolution''?
3738For the summer?
3738Going away?
3738Have n''t I seen you some- wheres?
3738Have n''t you read the Pilot and the Mail and State?
3738Have you heard anything more?
3738He will recover?
3738Hello, Paret,he said"how is that telephone business getting along?"
3738How are the children?
3738How are we going to better it, Hugh, this way? 3738 How can I tell?
3738How did they take it?
3738How did you guess?
3738How do you know?
3738How long could the woman stand it?....
3738How long do you think you could stand it?
3738How many do you think?
3738How soon will your business let you?
3738How the deuce did you manage it?
3738How was she shocked, then?
3738Hugh, you will get up, wo n''t you? 3738 Hugh,"she asked,"what do you believe?
3738Is Dickinson in?
3738Is any of it news to you, Hughie, old boy?
3738Is n''t it fairly definite?
3738Is n''t it for a higher ideal of marriage that we are searching?
3738Is n''t she beautiful?
3738Is n''t this enough? 3738 Is that a threat?"
3738Is that you, Hugh?
3738Is there anything I can get for you in New York? 3738 It''s useless to expect you to understand.... Do you remember what I said to you about her?
3738Matthew,demanded his sister,"why did he want to go fighting with all those people?"
3738Myself? 3738 Nineteen twenty- six Fowler Street?"
3738Nothing''s worrying you, Hugh?
3738Now? 3738 Oh, why are we always having misunderstandings?
3738Paret, have you ever read any serious books on what you call socialism?
3738Reading them?
3738Say, is this your heap?
3738Shall I drive you back to the Club, sir?
3738She didn''t-- she did n''t mention--?
3738Since when did you begin to feel this?
3738Speculations?
3738Then the scientific point of view in your opinion has n''t done away with religion?
3738Then there''s no hope?
3738Then why do you accept it, if it is n''t you?
3738Then,I said,"you admit of no other faculty than reason?"
3738This stuff ai n''t no use to you, is it?
3738Was there a good audience?
3738Well, have you found a way out?
3738Well, how does it feel to be sent for by the great sultan?
3738Well, wo n''t you sit down and stay awhile?
3738Well, your campaign against Ennerly and Jackson fell through, did n''t it?
3738Well,I said,"how are you?"
3738Well,he asked,"what do you think of it?"
3738Well,he said, with one of his glances that were like flashes,"what you got up your sleeve?"
3738Well,said Mr. Watling,"mow that you''re a member of the royal council, what do you think of the King?"
3738Well-- what?
3738What are you doing here?
3738What became of it?
3738What can he say?
3738What can we give that is worth it?
3738What did Perry do?
3738What do I believe?
3738What do you mean by''too much''?
3738What do you mean?
3738What do you mean?
3738What does the doctor say?
3738What else did he say?
3738What in hell is this fellow driving at, Paret?
3738What is it,he asked,"that brought you here to me, to- day?"
3738What is it?
3738What is it?
3738What is socialism, then?
3738What is-- the trouble?
3738What kind of fruits?
3738What ought I to have been?
3738What sort of things did they say?
3738What then? 3738 What then?"
3738What was it, then?
3738What woman worth her salt does n''t regret it, does n''t want to live, even if she has to suffer for it? 3738 What''s the Ashuela willing to do?"
3738What''s the matter with him?
3738What''s the matter?
3738What?
3738When are you coming over, father?
3738When do you think of leaving?
3738When you was in college?
3738When?
3738Where did you get all these ideas?
3738Where is the place?
3738Who is speaking?
3738Who the hell is he?
3738Who was in the audience? 3738 Why do you resist me?"
3738Why do you stop?
3738Why do you want a tree?
3738Why do you want to deal with them when we''ve always been straight with you, when we''re ready to meet them and go one better? 3738 Why does n''t the government take him over?"
3738Why is it,she demanded,"that after all these centuries of certainty we should have to start out to find him again?
3738Why not?
3738Why should you have qualms?
3738Why was n''t he popular?
3738Why?
3738Why?
3738Why?
3738Will you be dining here, sir?
3738Wo n''t you trust me, trust our love for one another?
3738Work for it, Hugh?
3738Would n''t think I cared for such things, would you?
3738Yes-- but are n''t you confusing--?
3738You chose it for me?
3738You do love me, do n''t you?
3738You do n''t think that crowd''s going to win, do you?
3738You feel better?
3738You mean that she is going to leave you?
3738You mean that-- that Maude loves me? 3738 You mean, instead of his mines and railroads and other properties?"
3738You mean--?
3738You regret it?
3738You rely on something else besides reason?
3738You see a few people?
3738You think Greenhalge has a chance of being elected?
3738You think they will blow up?
3738You think we''ll have more trouble?
3738You will love me, always no matter what happens?
3738You will remain in the house this summer, as usual, I suppose?
3738You would n''t blame him if he did that,--would you?
3738You''ll come back to me?
3738You''ll smoke it?
3738You''re all right, sir?
3738You''re going to stay, father?
3738You''re going?
3738You''re willing to take me as I am,--to try?
3738You''ve been wishing to talk to me?
3738You''ve kept in touch with her?
3738You''ve really liked Paris?
3738You-- you''ve been talking to him?
3738Your interest in-- in plutocrats is charitable, then?
3738''What is it ye''d like to be, my son?''
3738Again he whispered, to what purpose had I gained my liberty, if now I renounced it?
3738Am I to get that part of you I love, and are you to get what you crave in me?
3738And did Maude suspect the closeness of that relationship?
3738And had it not been one of my dreams of marriage, this preparing for the children''s Christmas, remembering the fierce desires of my own childhood?
3738And if it was n''t"conscience,"what was it?
3738And is there no such thing as conscience-- even though it be only an intuition of happiness or unhappiness?
3738And then I added irresistibly:"Nancy, you''re not sorry?
3738And where was the saving in that?
3738And who so well as Matthew, sensitive yet brave, would respond to it?
3738And why could n''t this feeling last?
3738And would she accept this accident of Ham''s as such?
3738And would she agree with my point of view if she did permit me to stay?
3738And-- well, we''ve taken the baubles, can we reach out our hands and take-- this?
3738Anything?"
3738Are there no gods for those who ca n''t be supermen?
3738Between sensible and humane men, was n''t that the obvious way?
3738But can we find it this way, my dear?"
3738But could I go back?
3738But have you, in your secret soul, any religion at all?
3738But should I ever have had the courage to propose a separation?
3738But the question tortured me: would Maude wish it?
3738But what answer should I give to Dickinson and Gorse?
3738But what are they?
3738But why discuss it?
3738But-- if I gave it to Matthew, what was there for Moreton?
3738By what right-- he seemed to ask-- had I nourished him all these years if now I meant to starve him?
3738Ca n''t we go into the schoolroom?
3738Ca n''t you hear her?"
3738Can we just seize happiness?
3738Could any cause survive it?
3738Could it be possible after all that had happened that Maude still loved me?
3738Could it be that I, Hugh Paret, who had always been so positive, had made a mess of my life?
3738Could it be that it was only the night before I had made a speech against him and his associates?
3738Could you recommend a work on biology?"
3738Did it possess the power to save me?
3738Did she feel a little the need of me as I felt the need of her?
3738Did she intend, ultimately, to get a divorce?
3738Did they call names?"
3738Do n''t you remember you said something of the kind the night of the election, years ago?
3738Do you ever think about it?
3738Do you get me?
3738Do you know why?
3738Do you perceive any hint of emptiness-- despair?"
3738Do you remember my asking you about God?--the first day this began?
3738Do you remember my telling you I did n''t agree with them?
3738Fierce and tenacious, steel in the cruelty of his desires, fearful in the havoc he had wrought, could he be subdued?
3738Had I done the wisest thing after all?
3738Had I remained a child, since my idea of pleasure was still that of youth?
3738Had I, Hugh Paret, fallen to this, that I could stand by consenting to an act which was worse than assassination?
3738Had any dire calamities overtaken the modern Macbeths, of whose personal lives we happened to know something?
3738Had he, for instance, let fall any opinions, prognostications on the political and financial situation?
3738Had not these great ones broken with impunity all the laws of traditional morality?
3738Had she been looking all along for a sign-- a sign of wrath?
3738Had she had a presentiment, all along, that something would occur to separate us?
3738Had she really changed?
3738Had she taken my gift as a sign that my indifference was melting?
3738Had something happened?
3738Have n''t you any clew?
3738Have you anyone else in mind?"
3738Have you discovered, too, the emptiness of it all?"
3738Have you seen him lately?"
3738He had begun to think.. What did he think of me?
3738Her voice sank:"Could it be God?"
3738Here with me?"
3738How I appealed to you when you married to try to appreciate her?"
3738How can a man in our time find out what he does want unless he takes something and gives it a trial?"
3738How can we assert that-- this is not merely a continuation of it?"
3738How can you bear to part with them?"
3738How can you doubt it?"
3738How could I turn traitor?
3738How does he seem?"
3738How is one to handle an opponent who praises one with a delightful irony?
3738I could n''t let our first citizen build a modern Rhine castle, could I?
3738I do care for you, I do love you--""Then why not let that suffice?"
3738I had believed in divorce then-- why not now?
3738I had gained something, in truth, but had I not also missed something?
3738I had spent my days in mastering an inadequate and archaic code-- why?
3738I made an effort to achieve the frame of mind she suggested: since she took it so calmly, why should I be tortured by the tragedy of it?
3738I repeated it fervently...."No matter what happens?"
3738I was boss of that ward myself when I was twenty- six.... How''d you like that cigar?"
3738If he thinks so much of us, and the way we run the town, what''s he squawking about?"
3738Is n''t it in us, too,--in you?
3738Is n''t it, after all, the most sensible, the only way out of a situation that has become impossible?
3738Is n''t life more than that?
3738Is n''t there any voice in you, anywhere, deep down, that can tell me?
3738Is there no god but the superman''s god, which is himself?
3738Is there no god, anywhere, but this force we feel, restlessly creating only to destroy?
3738It ought to be so-- oughtn''t it?
3738It''ll do a lot of good, but how in hell are you going to handle Judd?...."
3738It''s because they give me a certain protection,--do you see?
3738It''s because we want the morning stars, do n''t you see?"
3738It''s human nature to want to get on top-- ain''t it?"
3738Looking up and catching her eye just as she was about to withdraw, I was suddenly impelled to ask:--"Well, what did you think of it?"
3738Might not both, physical and social, be due to the influence of the same invisible, experimenting, creating Hand?
3738My being cried out for it, and in the world in which I lived we took what we wanted-- why not this?
3738Paret?"
3738Paret?"
3738Paret?"
3738Pound''s church, and Mrs. Ewan taught us?
3738Save me from what?
3738Say, did you see that smile?
3738Should we deliver these heirlooms to the mob?
3738Suppose Maude could not help loving me, in spite of my weaknesses and faults, even as I loved Nancy in spite of hers?
3738Suppose one does n''t become a superman?
3738That relieves, your aldermen of all responsibility, does n''t it?"
3738That she is jealous?"
3738The story''s so exciting, is n''t it, Matthew?"
3738Then I heard the chauffeur ask:--"Where do you wish to go, sir?"
3738There was the slightest unsteadiness in her voice as she replied:--"Is it necessary to go into that, Hugh?
3738Under that damned new charter the franchise has got to be bid for-- hasn''t it?
3738Was I not trying to do that very thing now?
3738Was any cause worth it?
3738Was it a trick of the artist?
3738Was it in reality Nancy who had brought about this crisis?
3738Was it not just possible that I should have to revise my idea of him, acknowledge that he might become more formidable than I had thought?
3738Was it too late to make that effort?....
3738Was it, as she said, weakness, lack of courage to take life when it was offered her?....
3738Was she glad to see me?
3738Was the house empty, after all?
3738Was there in me a grain of doubt of my ability to respond to such a high call?
3738Was there something lacking in me?
3738Was this a sudden resolution of mine, forced by events, precipitated by a failure to achieve what of all things on earth I had most desired?
3738Was this composure a controlled one or had she indeed attained to the self- sufficiency her manner and presence implied?
3738Was this equivocating?
3738Was this knowledge acquired at such cost of labour and life and love by my fellow- men of so little worth to me that I could ignore it?
3738What are you trying to say?"
3738What did I care for the senatorship anyway-- if I had her?
3738What did I know of life?
3738What did I know of the insect and the flower, of the laws that moved the planets and made incandescent the suns?
3738What did I know?
3738What did I mean by this?
3738What did Matthew and Moreton want?
3738What did Maude want?
3738What did he want with you, Hugh?"
3738What did our instructors at Harvard know about the age that was dawning?
3738What do you think of Mr. Scherer''s palace?"
3738What do you think of it?"
3738What effect would it have on him when it should be revealed to him?....
3738What else was there in the world more worth having than this conquering sense?
3738What if I went to her now?
3738What is it Browning says?
3738What restless, fiendish element in me prevented my enjoying that?
3738What right had she to leave me?
3738What then?
3738What was I going to do?
3738What was his life?
3738What was it I felt?
3738What was it he was talking about?
3738What was the use of amassing money, when happiness was to be had so simply?
3738What were his beliefs?
3738What were his potentialities?
3738What''s the matter with his houses?"
3738What''s the matter?"
3738What''s the matter?"
3738What''s to happen to one?
3738Where are your gods then?
3738Where, then, would be your power?
3738Who else is there?
3738Who the deuce was this man Krebs?
3738Why are you so sad to- night?"
3738Why could n''t I appreciate these joys when I had them?
3738Why not include yourself?"
3738Why should I?
3738Why was I flinging it all away?
3738Why was n''t there more track?
3738Why was not this Thing ever present, to chasten and sober me?
3738Why, then, did she allow the words of love to pass?
3738Will it not elude us just as much as though we believed firmly in the ten commandments?"
3738Will you tell me your name?"
3738Wo n''t we be punished for it, frightfully punished?"
3738Would it be fair to her if she did not?
3738Would n''t I get more track?
3738Would n''t it be useless as well as a little painful?
3738Would not the attempt to cut loose from the consequences of that mistake in my individual case have been futile?
3738Would she mention Nancy?
3738Would that intimacy ever be renewed?
3738You do see, do n''t you?"
3738You have children, have n''t you?"
3738You have striven and striven, you have done extraordinary things, but have they made you any happier?
3738You never can tell, in these days, can you?"
3738You-- you still--?"
3738Your cousin Robert Breck; and that son- in- law of his-- what''s his name?
3738and does n''t it promise-- all?"
3738and had I not been a fool to accept the presentment she had given me?
3738and how draw the line between caresses?
3738and little Biddy?
3738and what would be the object?
3738and whether you had a god?
3738anyone you ever heard of?"
3738declare that it had no significance for me?
3738did anyone really change?
3738give me a hint?
3738had he seen what I saw, or thought I saw?
3738have you got what you want?"
3738in order that I might learn how to evade it?
3738just a little one?"
3738no bearing on my life and conduct?
3738of the human body, of the human soul and its instincts?
3738of the shining universe that surrounded me?
3738or a superwoman?
3738or for those who may refuse to be supermen?"
3738or was it the inevitable result of the development of the Hugh Paret of earlier days, who was not meant for that kind of power?
3738revenge?
3738she cried, and her voice pierced me with pain,"are we to be lost, overpowered, engulfed, swept down its stream, to come up below drifting-- wreckage?
3738something a different home would have embodied?
3738that I do n''t suffer?"
3738what did anybody know?
3738what excuse for declining such an offer?
15714''Cause do-- do_ nice_ people like pigs?
15714''Cause-- isn''t this a rain- drop on your face?
15714''Fraid to go barefoot?
15714A bird?
15714A once- upon- a- time story?
15714A solution?
15714A-- a walk?
15714Ah?
15714Ai n''t it to your likin''?
15714All I_ want_ to?
15714Am I seeing this, or is it just Pretend?
15714Ambitious?
15714And Potter, Madam?
15714And after the Den, what do we pass?
15714And cake,_ too?_ Splendid! 15714 And have a doctor come?"
15714And he?
15714And what is my daughter going to say about the rabbit in the cabbage?
15714And where''d you git''em?
15714And which little bird is it that tells things to-- to people?
15714And you ask me that, Miss? 15714 And, Rosa--""Yes, Madam?"
15714And, Thomas,went on the governess,"when would_ you_ like an hour?"
15714And, oh, Jane, some day may I go over to the brick house?
15714And-- and after we go by the Big Rock?
15714And_ what_ does Thomas say, darlin''?
15714And_ where_ do you think you''ll go?
15714Are n''t there kidnapers in the country, too?
15714Are there bears?
15714Are there doctors?
15714Are there p''liceman in these woods?
15714Are these Christmas trees?
15714Are-- are kidnapers worse than doctors?
15714Are-- are kidnapers worse than el''phunts?
15714Are-- are_ you_ grown- up?
15714Aren''t-- aren''t you afraid of him?
15714As much as that? 15714 Asia?
15714Bad as that?
15714Bears?
15714But do little_ birds_ ever talk?
15714But do you know who you_ are?_( The round eyes were full of tears!)
15714But why did n''t you turn the tables at first? 15714 But you wo n''t mind,_ will_ you, dear Gwendolyn?"
15714But, Jane,whispered Gwendolyn back,"which_ is_ my best foot?"
15714But, oh,breathed Gwendolyn, her bosom heaving,"why do n''t you feel_ her_ pulse?"
15714But,she began;"--but which_ is_ my sweet tooth?"
15714But-- but is n''t Johnnie coming with_ me?_she asked.
15714Ca n''t I even look out of the window?
15714Ca n''t I have a gentleman friend?
15714Ca n''t guess?
15714Ca n''t we run now?
15714Ca n''t you drive him away?
15714Ca n''t you let your feet come down? 15714 Ca n''t you_ never_ remember your manners?"
15714Call that a''English tongue?
15714Can you mend him?
15714Come?
15714Could n''t I take forty- one?
15714Did he have a bumpy forehead? 15714 Did n''t you know that?"
15714Did she ask?
15714Did you ask to go down to the library?
15714Did you do as I said?
15714Did you do errands for my fath- er?
15714Did you ever_ hear_ such a question?
15714Did your dolls like the merry- go- round?
15714Difference?
15714Do I have to play that old piece?
15714Do I have to take it now?
15714Do n''t you think I know that policeman''s heels over head?
15714Do n''t you think you''d better go and lie down for a while, and have a little rest?
15714Do we have to turn it?
15714Do we_ have_ to go that road?
15714Do you mean the soda- water They?
15714Do you think I''m goin''to trapse over the hard pavements on my poor, tired feet just because_ you_ take your notions?
15714Do you want me to send for a great black bear?
15714Do_ you_ know him?
15714Does she speak French?
15714Eh?
15714Eh?
15714Er-- why?
15714Excuse me,she said apologetically,"but are n''t you losing your pocket handkerchief?"
15714Funny?
15714Get rid of Thomas?
15714Go_ barefoot?_she repeated, small face flushing to a pleased pink.
15714Gwendolyn dear,said she,"you can have such a_ lovely_ long pretend- game between now and supper,_ ca n''t_ you?"
15714Gwendolyn?
15714Had n''t we better be st- starting?
15714Have the bears ever frightened_ you?_she asked, her voice trembling.
15714Have we any more of that quietin''medicine?
15714Honest?
15714How are you?
15714How can I help_ that?_demanded Jane.
15714How do you do?
15714How much of it did Jane give you? 15714 How was that?"
15714How would a glass of soda- water do?
15714How''s a body to git a child asleep with that old wheeze of yours goin''?
15714How''s the pulse now?
15714How-- how--?
15714How_ could_ you?
15714I s''pose that''s part of a mouth?
15714I think it''s the office, dear,he explained; and into the transmitter--"Yes?...
15714I wanted more, but Thomas held it''way up, and--"Do you want to be sick?
15714I was wondering has anybody scribbled on the General''s horse?--with chalk?
15714I''m not treatin''you fair? 15714 I?
15714If I had n''t one,answered the Policeman with dignity,"would I be able to stand up comfortably in this remarkable manner?"
15714If she stopped dancin''where would I come in?
15714If we want to save her--"Am I_ her?_interrupted Gwendolyn.
15714If-- if Thomas walked along with us,she began,"could-- could anybody steal me then?"
15714In the whole, whole big world?
15714Is Jane about, Miss Gwendolyn?
15714Is he coming?
15714Is it a sweet tooth that makes a face sweet?
15714Is it a_ rubber- plant?_Gwendolyn looked.
15714Is it far?
15714Is that the chewing kind?
15714Is the sun up?
15714Is there something wrong?
15714Is-- is always the same piece of Heaven right there through the window?
15714Is-- is he praying?
15714Is-- is this the Park?
15714Is_ that_ fair? 15714 Is_ that_ where my father is?"
15714Jane, what is a tongue- lashing?
15714Jane?
15714Jane?
15714Just where are we goin'', anyhow?
15714Made the money fly?
15714Mademoiselle,she began,"what kind of a bird owned these feathers?"
15714May I, Jane?
15714May we go into the Zoo, please?
15714Miss Royle, will you take Gwendolyn?
15714Most in the whole_ world?_she asked.
15714Moth- er,she half- whispered,"does the Doctor mean_ Johnnie Blake''s?_"The Doctor assented energetically.
15714Mr. Man- Who- Makes- Faces,she began timidly,"do you mean the Piper that everybody has to pay?"
15714Need any sharpening?
15714Now, Gwendolyn,she interrupted severely,"are you going to begin your usual silly, silly questions?"
15714Now, whatever do you think I was talkin''about?
15714Now,_ did_ you?
15714Of course the tables are turned,said Gwendolyn;"but what diff''rence''ll_ that_ make?"
15714Oh!--What''s it full of, please?
15714Oh, Jane,cried Gwendolyn,"when I blow like that,_ where_ do all the little lights go?"
15714Oh, but how''ll these help?
15714Oh, can a snake crawl backwards?
15714Oh, do you mean we need a_ Doctor?_Puffy was trembling weakly.
15714Oh, must you?
15714Oh, will she die?
15714Oh, you''ll pardon my having to desert you,_ wo n''t_ you?
15714Oh, you''re going to tell us how you got the lump?
15714Oh,_ wo n''t_ you stay?
15714Oh?
15714Oh?
15714Oh?
15714On_ week_-days?
15714Or-- or the woods across the River?
15714Please, who are They? 15714 Please,"she began, pointing a small finger,"what is this place?"
15714Policeman? 15714 Right_ away?_ Before I''m eight?"
15714Right_ away?_ Before I''m eight?
15714Robin Hood''s Barn?
15714Say, Miss Gwendolyn,he began,"_ you_ like old Thomas, do n''t you?"
15714See the h''s?
15714Seven?
15714Shall I fetch the cake?
15714Shall I fetch you?
15714Shall I telephone for--?
15714Shall I tell you?
15714She''s six, is n''t she, my dear?
15714She_ frightened_ you?
15714Singin''a duet with yourself?
15714So me and Thomas are to be thrown out of our jobs, are we?
15714So old Royle up and outed, did she?
15714So you''re goin''out?
15714So?
15714Some collecting on hand?
15714That? 15714 The King''s English?
15714Then he''s flown?
15714Then is n''t there a hill to climb?
15714Then,--advancing an eager step--"why do n''t_ you?_"He mopped his forehead.
15714They?
15714This? 15714 Trade?
15714Trade?
15714Trying to make some Club?
15714Was there something else my little girl wanted?
15714Well, Mr. Piper,she cried out,"what_ do_ They say?"
15714Well, how does our sharp little patient feel now?
15714Well, little daughter?
15714Well, then, what shall I do?
15714Well, what would you_ like?_queried Jane, catching up the small package and shaking it.
15714Well, who is it that tells people things?
15714Well--?
15714Well? 15714 Were they nice ones?"
15714What do you mean?
15714What has that got to do with it? 15714 What kind are those?"
15714What kind of a bird is it?
15714What makes his club shine so?
15714What other?
15714What wicked men?
15714What would kidnapers care about_ Thomas?_she demanded contemptuously.
15714What would the kidnapers do?
15714What''re you eatin''?
15714What''s likely to come out? 15714 What''s the Piper got beside him?"
15714What''s the matter?
15714What''s the trouble?
15714What''s true?
15714When did I come by_ this?_he demanded.
15714When did you come out from town?
15714Where am I going, Jane?
15714Where am I?
15714Where does he come?
15714Where?
15714Which is your best foot?
15714Which route, I wonder, had we better take?
15714Which?
15714Who are They''?
15714Who are''They''? 15714 Who is she, anyhow?"
15714Who is''he''?
15714Who knows?
15714Who told you about the bears, Gwendolyn?
15714Who told you where she was?
15714Who told you?
15714Who''ll help her?
15714Who?
15714Why do you always say forty?
15714Why, what were you doing there, darling?
15714Why,--why,she began hesitatingly,"is n''t it a_ bonnet?_"A bonnet it was-- a plain, cheap- looking piece of millinery.
15714Will a pebble- size do?
15714Will he be there now?
15714Will these--?
15714Will you come back?
15714Will you like that?
15714With the hand- organ man, too, fath- er? 15714 Wo n''t they be hunting_ you?_ Well, keep out of their clutches, I say.
15714Wo n''t_ you_ eat it?
15714Worse than a-- a p''liceman?
15714Worse than-- than bears?
15714Would another eye help me to find him?
15714Would n''t you like,said he,"to have a look at my establishment?"
15714Would you like to see the sky?
15714Would you mind just turning around for a moment?
15714Would you mind telling me what that is?
15714Yes, darling?
15714Yes, darling?
15714Yes, darling?
15714Yes, dear?
15714Yes, what?
15714Yes?
15714Yes?
15714Yes?
15714You dance, do n''t you, at Monsoor Tellegen''s, of a Saturday afternoon? 15714 You do n''t think your pig had anything to do with it?"
15714You have n''t heard the latest about him?
15714You mean the_ Bird?_Jane''s front face broke into a pleased grin.
15714You mean you have a solution?
15714You mean you''ve made plans?
15714You protect old people, eh? 15714 You protect''em?"
15714You see it''s this way:"Can you tell it like a story, fath- er?
15714You wo n''t mind if we do n''t start for a minute or two, will you?
15714You''ll help_ me_ to find my fath- er and moth- er, wo n''t you?
15714You''re going to walk?
15714You''re speakin''of-- er--?
15714You''ve heard of Hobson''s choice?
15714You''ve read that bees are busy little things, have n''t you?
15714You''ve seen stones in rings, have n''t you? 15714 You''ve_ seen_ him?"
15714You_ will_ go with me?
15714_ Afraid?_he echoed, surprised.
15714_ Ai n''t_ displeased?
15714_ All_ the time?
15714_ Attendez!_"Mademoiselle,persisted Gwendolyn, twining and untwining,"if I do my French fast will you tell me something?
15714_ Grows?_"Well, it''s where_ candle_-light grows.
15714_ Gwendolyn?_Jane held her with doubting eyes.
15714_ He?_she questioned.
15714_ How_ did he make faces, Jane?
15714_ Now_ who?
15714_ Now_, who''s goin''to pay?
15714_ Parlez- vous Francais?_"_ Oh, oui! 15714 _ Truly?_"Jane made big eyes.
15714_ What_ do you think I''ve got for you?
15714_ Who_ are Law and Order?
15714_ Wicked men?_Her mother suddenly straightened.
15714_ Would_ you, moth-- er?
15714_ You_ wo n''t mind showing me the way?
15714( Did he suspicion anything?)
15714( Or was it green?)
15714A fine crop?
15714A level head?
15714After a moment,"Recollect my speaking of the Piper?"
15714And I want_ you_, my precious baby.... How much do you love me, moth- er?...
15714And a- course, she does.... Jane, ai n''t it near twelve?"
15714And how many are there of''em?"
15714And how will you travel, darling?
15714And keep a''eye out, will you, to see that there''s nobody layin''in wait for us out in front?"
15714And later on, I suppose, Greek and Latin?"
15714And stones to roll--?"
15714And was the plaid gingham with the patch- pocket now hanging in the wardrobe?
15714And what do They look like?
15714And why did n''t we stay here?
15714And-- what are you here for_ anyhow?_"At the very boldness of it, Jane''s manner completely changed.
15714And_ why_ would Thomas not get through it?
15714Are n''t you always saying things?"
15714Are n''t_ they_ pebble- size?"
15714Are_ you?_"Somehow, she felt ashamed.
15714Better, are n''t we?"
15714Brave he might be, but what help was the General_ now?_ When Jane was ready for the drive, Gwendolyn took a firm hold of one thick thumb.
15714But now a voice-- her father''s-- broke in upon her happy chatter:"Without your_ mother?_"She had been sitting down.
15714But now, with herself hidden, was there not a likelihood of plain speech?
15714But she was in no mood to make herself agreeable to visiting friends of Miss Royle''s-- and who else could this be?
15714But was he ill to- night?
15714But what of the remainder of that visitor''s never- to- be- forgotten declaration of scorn?
15714But"a certain party"--"Leave?"
15714But-- would it help?"
15714But_ where?_""I do n''t know,"--in a flutter.
15714CHAPTER XIV Why had Miss Royle, sly reptile that she was, scuttled away without so much as a good- by?
15714Ca n''t we think of some way to get rid of her?"
15714Can you remember?"
15714Dear moth- er, may I eat at the grown- up table?...
15714Did it mean that he was in danger?
15714Did she dare?
15714Do n''t the rest of us get a smile?"
15714Do n''t you want to help dig worms?"
15714Do you hear that?"
15714Do you_ hear?_""But she takes care of a rich little girl.
15714Does a child get food that is simple and nourishing, and enough of it?
15714Finally,"Moth- er,"she plead,"will you please sing?"
15714For-- how''ll you ever find your father?"
15714Had he_ dared_ to harm her soldier with the scarlet coat?
15714Had_ Jane_ just heard?
15714Have n''t you heard what''s the matter with her?"
15714Hello?...
15714How did you manage it?"
15714In your sweet car?"
15714Instead,"Has anyone ever told you about that street, Gwennie?"
15714Is all exercise taken in the open?
15714Is it far?"
15714Is this the Doctor speakin''?...
15714Jane began to argue, throwing out both hands:"How was_ I_ to know to- day was her birthday?
15714May I look out at the Down- Town roofs?"
15714Murder?
15714Nice day,_ is n''t_ it?"
15714Now just let me ask you another question:_ Why are there bars on the basement windows?_"Gwendolyn''s lips parted to reply.
15714Now, what can I give you?"
15714Oh, where''s some money?
15714Oh, you like him,_ do n''t_ you?
15714Oh,_ why_ were the Zoo bears in her father''s street?
15714Oh?
15714Really?"
15714Recollect the Policeman?"
15714She lifted a face tense with earnestness"Is it_ true?_"she asked hoarsely.
15714So far had anything been really unexpected?
15714Still--"But-- but where could we-- er-- find-- a-- a--?"
15714The children!--_he?_"But,"she interrupted,"Jane''s always told me that you grab little boys and girls_ and carry''em off_."
15714The voice went on:"This is the first time you''ve met the mother, is n''t it?"
15714Then drawing the pink- frocked figure close,"And you_ did n''t_ tell him what them two ladies had to say?"
15714Then that musical voice began again:"Where do you suppose that young one is?"
15714Then to Gwendolyn:"You do n''t mind, do you, dearie, if Jane has a taste of gum as we go along?"
15714Then turning upon the Policeman,"Off your beat, ai n''t you?"
15714Then why do n''t you take her out with you?
15714Then, catching at the delicate square of linen in Gwendolyn''s hand,"How''d you git ink smeared over your handkerchief?
15714Then, making scared eyes,"What has that_ got to do_,"she demanded,"_ with the wicked men that keep watch of this house?_"Gwendolyn swallowed.
15714Then, plucking crossly at a muslin sleeve,"Well, what do you want?
15714Then, seeing that Gwendolyn was alone,"Would you mind tellin''her when she comes that I''m out takin''the Madam''s dogs for a walk?"
15714Then,"I''m thirsty,"he declared"Where''s--?"
15714Then,"Well-- er--""Is n''t it a fath- er- and- moth- er question?"
15714Then,"What_ about_ the nurse- maid, dearie?"
15714Then,"Why_ not?_"asked Gwendolyn, back against the door.
15714Then,"You do n''t mind telling me who''s going to have that?"
15714Then,"_ Sprechen Sie Deutsch?_""I-- er-- read it fairly well."
15714Was the speaker referring to_ her?_ Clasping her hands tight, she leaned forward a little, straining to catch every syllable.
15714We''ll help her get rid of it!--_if!_""If?"
15714Well, I have to have my money, do n''t I?
15714Well, ever hear of a sweet tooth?"
15714Well, how about old_ organ- grinders?_""You ought to know,"answered the Officer promptly.
15714Well?"
15714Were there not trees there?
15714What did Jane mean?
15714What do you suppose your mamma''d say if she was to come upon it?
15714What do you think you''re doin''?"
15714What do_ you_ guess, Gwendolyn?"
15714What does_ nouveaux riches_ mean?"
15714Where did it come from?
15714Where_ are_ you?"
15714Who was it got caught spyin''yesterday?"
15714Why had she not been asked to the great dining- room?
15714Why not make certain inquiries of Mademoiselle?
15714Why so much satisfaction all at once?
15714Why, if anybody was to steal the dogs what good would it do''em?
15714Why?"
15714Will I see him?"
15714With kidnapers about, was_ he_ a fit guardian for the front door?
15714Wo n''t you eat it?"
15714Would_ she_ ever let a young charge fall over a cliff?"
15714Yes, where?"
15714Yet-- was it not too good to last?
15714Your French doll?
15714_ The society bee in her bonnet?_"Ah!"
15714_ What_ Gate?
15714_ What_ difference?
15714_ What_ street?
15714_ Would_ we, Thomas?"
15714_ Yes!_""Than the p''liceman that''s-- that''s always hanging around here?"
15714_ You- know- what?_ Gwendolyn was troubled.
15714_ You_ have n''t boosted her, dear?"
15714and a lumpy tail?"
15714and rocks?
15714and,"Moth- er, have you_ really_ got a bee in your bonnet?"
15714continued the Doctor,"with your hat down your back on a string?
15714or hurt?
15714repeated Jane,"Who with?
15714said Gwendolyn;"which side are_ you_ on?"
15714she asked huskily;"my fath- er?"
15714she asked;"and hide?"
15714she cried;"did They make me that pocket?
15714the glade through which it flowed?
15714the shingled cottage among the trees?
15714what''s the price of that big braid?"
15714where was that stream?
3621''PET''?
3621''What are yer doin''here at all?'' 3621 A CHICHESTER TEACH?"
3621A FRIEND is it?
3621A YOUNG LADY, sir? 3621 A book, eh?"

3621A child is coming to us?
3621A child of her age?

3621All ye learned as a child and we talked of since ye grew to a girl?
3621Am I like her, at all, father?
3621Am I to tell him that every tutor I''ve engaged for her resigned? 3621 Am I?
3621Am I?
3621Amusing? 3621 An''a baby?"
3621An''the music comin''across the lawn?

3621And how is our little protegee?
3621And if I get fresh tutors for you, will you try to keep them?
3621And it WAS a joke, Peg, was n''t it?
3621And may I ask what that intention is?
3621And not a word of me?
3621And now,beamed the lawyer, happy at the fortunate outcome of a situation that a few moments before seemed so strained,"where is your bell?"
3621And the darling child?
3621And the sweet child?
3621And we wo n''t separate any more, Peg, will we?

3621But what was the use of bringing her over when Mr. Kingsnorth was dead?
3621But ye''ll go?

3621A will?"
3621After a little pause Peg said:"Ye loved her very much, father, did n''t ye?"
3621After a little while Peg whispered:"Jerry?"
3621After a moment he whispered softly:"What do you say-- dear cousin?"
3621After a pause he went on:"Who are you?"
3621After all, suppose she did want to dance?
3621After all, who were they to intimidate her?
3621Again he followed her:"And will you look on me as your friend?"
3621Alaric arose in anger:"My mother?"
3621Alaric turned quickly to her:"And may I ask WHY that''Ha!''?
3621Alaric watched him curiously:"Want a sandwich or something?"
3621Alaric, unable to curb his curiosity, burst out with:"How did the old boy split it up?"
3621All forgotten?"
3621All right?
3621Am I to tell him THAT?"
3621Amputate me?"
3621An''afther all ye''re only a farmer, are n''t ye?"
3621An''can ye see far enough into the future to realise what THAT will do?
3621An''dressed like THAT?
3621An''if the change is for the betther, where''s the harm?
3621An''kapin''the roof over ye?
3621An''may I have the twenty pounds?"
3621An''no creepin''back afther it all like a thief in the night?"
3621An''with all yer fine advantages ye''re not a bit happy, are ye?
3621An''with that BAG?
3621An''yer DAILY BREAD?
3621An''yer nothin''o''the kind, are ye?"
3621And I am?
3621And after all, is there not an element of selfishness in every nature?
3621And even if they had been, why should Peg have been their accuser?
3621And he caught Ethel as she was about to disappear:"Or you, Ethel?"
3621And indignation was in her tone when she replied:"Surely, she has sufficient example here, sir?"
3621And pray where did you learn all that, Miss?"
3621And was she not improving herself?
3621And what ARE such marriages?
3621And what did you mean by those signs you were making?"
3621And what did_ I_ realise?
3621And what had all the days to come in store for her with memory searching back to the days that were?
3621And what is HIS?
3621And who was the nephew that came into it?"
3621And why?
3621And why?
3621And with me, eh?
3621And you are angry, are n''t you?
3621And, all things considered, is not selfishness a thoroughly human and entirely natural feeling?
3621Angela turned on him:"So, it''s YOU who are sending him to prison?"
3621Angela went on"Yes, father; is that all you know about the Irish?"
3621Answer me that?
3621Answer me that?"
3621Answer me that?"
3621Answer me that?"
3621Answer me?"
3621Are YOU Sir Gerald Adair?"
3621Are n''t ye me model?
3621Are n''t you?"
3621Are ye goin''to dance the extra ones ye would n''t take me back for?"
3621Are ye men of Ireland so craven that aliens can rule ye as they once ruled the negro?"
3621Are ye, Ethel?"
3621Are ye?"
3621Are yez satisfied with this?"
3621Are yez still angry with me?
3621Are you ever going to learn how to behave?"
3621Are you goin''to bed now?"
3621Are you just sorry for yourself?"
3621As he watched the worn, patient face, his heart full to bursting, the thought flashed through him-- what could have happened to cause this collapse?
3621As they disappeared through the door, the old lady said appealingly to her children:"Where IS she?"
3621At times there would flash through Peg''s mind-- what would her future in America be-- with her father?
3621Because I''m ignorant?
3621Brent sat beside her and said softly:"Then I''ve come in time?"
3621Bring her up English?
3621Burke?"
3621But Jerry stroked her hair, and looked into her eyes and smiled down at her lovingly, as he asked:"What will your father say?"
3621But by the time she is of age--""Of age?"
3621But the old rebellious spirit came uppermost, and she looked at him defiantly and cried:"Are you goin''to propose to me, too?"
3621But where is he?
3621But would ye mind very much if the BAD little somethin''had one more SPURT before I killed it altogether?
3621CHAPTER XVI THE CHIEF EXECUTOR, APPEARS UPON THE SCENE"Why, how do you do, Sir Gerald?"
3621Ca n''t you see how upset the mater is?
3621Ca n''t you think?"
3621Can I tell him THAT?"
3621Can I?"
3621Can one?"
3621Can you suggest anything that might make her stay?
3621Chichester?"
3621Chichester?"
3621Chichester?"
3621Could it be possible--?
3621Could it be true?
3621Could it?
3621Could n''t do more than that, could I?"
3621Could n''t we try and comfort each other?"
3621Could she now?
3621Could the break ever be healed?
3621Could the trouble have arisen from THAT?
3621D''ye mind if I stay up for another hour?
3621D''ye mind?
3621DOES she LOVE me?"
3621Did n''t ye hear that?"
3621Did n''t ye say he was a GINTLEMAN?"
3621Did n''t you think so?"
3621Did this man come back from the mists of memory BECAUSE he loved her?
3621Did ye think I would?"
3621Did ye?
3621Did you see her strike me?"
3621Do n''t I own land there?"
3621Do n''t ye see it?
3621Do n''t ye see what a disadvantage I''d be at with girls without half me intelligence if I do n''t?
3621Do n''t ye?"
3621Do n''t you think you could?"
3621Do yez like hearin''about me father?"
3621Do you LIKE her?"
3621Do you hear me?"
3621Do you know I am going to do something now I''ve never done before?"
3621Do you know Marjory Fairbanks?"
3621Do you know you have grown into a most attractive young lady?
3621Do you like speeches?"
3621Do you remember it, Peg?"
3621Do you understand what I mean?"
3621Do you?"
3621Does it matter?"
3621Does n''t he want to lave the woman now that he swore to cherish at the altar of God?
3621Does she see many people?"
3621During all that long month ye were there did ye meet one Englishman that ever saw a joke?"
3621Eh, Ethel?"
3621Eh, Ethel?"
3621Eh, Jerry?
3621Eh, mater?
3621Eh?
3621Eh?
3621Eh?
3621Eh?"
3621Eh?"
3621Ethel again turned to the perplexed Brent:"Eh?"
3621Ethel asked him very quietly:"Do you mean that you are a sinner, a thief, and a liar?"
3621Ethel followed her:"What are you doing here?"
3621Ethel looked at her inquiringly:"How do you know this?"
3621Ethel looked coldly at him, ignored the extended hands and asked:"Why did she run away?"
3621Ethel looked understandingly at him:"IS she?"
3621Ethel loves babies, do n''t you, dear?"
3621Ethel said quite calmly:"Is it?
3621Ethel smiled as she looked right through him:"So did I, did n''t I?"
3621Ethel smiled her most enigmatical smile:"No?
3621Ethel turned: she was now at bay:"YOU WATCH ME?"
3621Ethel went slowly over to Peg and looked into her eyes:"What am I?"
3621Ethel''s jewels?"
3621Finally she asked Mrs. Chichester the following amazing question:"Where''s her husband?"
3621Finally she asked:"What did you mean by dancing in that disgraceful way?
3621Finally, when the hysterical outburst had somewhat abated, he asked coldly:"Am I to consider that a refusal?"
3621From her father''s side Angela asked quietly:"Have you ever been in Ireland, father?"
3621GLAD?"
3621Go on now, does it?
3621Had the great Message of Life come to his little Peg?
3621Has it, Peg?"
3621Have I ever been''rough an''crude''in me manner to you, Peg?"
3621Have n''t ye ever felt like that, Ethel?"
3621Have n''t you done enough in killing and maiming those unfortunate people?"
3621Have n''t you got any feelings?
3621Have you ever seen a young man free of the trammels of college, dash into a NET?
3621Having satisfactorily introduced everyone he said to Ethel:"See if the mater''s well enough to come down, like a dear, will ye?
3621Hawkes?"
3621Hawkes?"
3621Hawkes?"
3621Hawkes?"
3621He answered with a half- laugh, half- sob:"Thinkin''about, is it?
3621He followed her:"May I call to- morrow?"
3621He forced one of his old time, hearty laughs, but there was a hollow ring in it:"What is that yer sayin''at all?
3621He is being hounded to prison for what?
3621He leaned across to her:"Would you risk it?"
3621He looked at her in open bewilderment and repeated:"Michael?"
3621He looked so tremendously in earnest about something What in the world was it?
3621He paused:"Will you?"
3621He picked up a copy of the local newspaper and read a headline from one of the columns:"I see you have agitators even here?"
3621He said in a whisper:"And you''ll go with me?"
3621He sat beside her, waited a moment, then, with some sense of misgiving, asked:"Everything going well, I hope?"
3621He turned to Ethel:"Eh?"
3621He was shot down by soldiers-- for what?
3621Her eyes winked as she said:"DID ye?
3621Her voice trembled as she spoke:"What do you want?"
3621How could I consent to her going?
3621How could the poor soldiers help hittin''ye?
3621How dare that brat let her mongrel touch the aristocratic poodle?
3621How did we become owners of this miserable piece of land?
3621How did ye know THAT?"
3621How has she behaved?"
3621How long had she been in the room?
3621How on earth did that creature get there without their hearing or seeing her?
3621How would he receive her?
3621How would she feel toward her home when she contrasted it with what she had just left?
3621I came in through those windows and I saw, her and her husband, she was--""What in heaven''s name does she mean?"
3621I hope there is no, harm done?"
3621I know how much is at stake for the family, and YOU realise how much is at stake for ME, do n''t you?"
3621I love my father and-- I-- I--""WILL-- YOU-- STOP?"
3621I mean about Margaret?"
3621I tell you I''m going--""So ye''d break yer mother''s heart an''his wife''s just to satisfy yer own selfish pleasure?
3621I wonder if it would be possible to see you in London?
3621I would say:''Were ye borrn there?''
3621I''d be more worthy of--""WHAT?
3621I''ve disgraced ye, have I?
3621If I''d known it I''d never have stayed with ye a minnit Who are YOU, I''d like to know, to bring me up any betther than me father?
3621If a boy looks at a girl twice, what do ye do?
3621If he had n''t he could n''t do it, could he?"
3621If neither Alaric nor Mr. Hawkes could deter her, what would become of them?
3621If they take so long to free a whole country how long do ye suppose it''ll take them to free a whole sex-- and the female one at that?"
3621In a moment he was kneeling at her side:"What is it, dear?"
3621In that one rude, foolish, unnecessary question,"Are you goin''to propose too?"
3621In the Cause of Ireland, eh?"
3621Instead, he nodded in the direction Peg had gone and questioned:"What does she mean-- going in a few minutes?"
3621Is THAT it?"
3621Is he a gentleman?"
3621Is it HER ye''ve come to see?"
3621Is it THAT?"
3621Is it a crime?
3621Is it by any chance about the BANK?"
3621Is it serious?
3621Is it the truth ye''re tellin''me?"
3621Is n''t it stupid?"
3621Is that ME?"
3621Is that a crime?
3621Is that all?"
3621Is that conduct becoming your name?
3621Is that understood?"
3621Is that what''s throublin''ye?"
3621Is that where they put''MICHAEL''?"
3621Is the angel wife all well?"
3621Is there any good fortune like what ye''ve just told me?
3621Is there any position of prominence today in England that is n''t filled by Irishmen?
3621Is there, mater?"
3621It just shows, mater, does n''t it?"
3621It''s a cool thousand, you know?
3621Jarvis looked reproachfully at Mrs. Chichester as much as to say:"What did I tell you?"
3621Jerry looked at her a moment, walked over to her and asked her:"What''s the matter?"
3621Jerry returned Alaric''s smile as he asked:"YOU offered to marry her?"
3621Jerry?"
3621Just a month?"
3621Just a month?"
3621Just married, were n''t you?
3621Kingsnorth?"
3621MARRIAGE-- isn''t it?"
3621ME?
3621May I see her?"
3621May I study for just one more hour?"
3621May I?"
3621Meanwhile, that young gentleman had greeted Peg:"And how is Miss Peg this evening?"
3621Mrs. Chichester ejaculated:"What?"
3621Mrs. Chichester greeted Brent courteously:"How do you do, Mr. Brent?
3621Mrs. Chichester looked fondly at her only son and answered:"How could she be NEAR you for the last month and NOT love you?"
3621Mrs. Chichester rose in astonishment:"I?"
3621Mrs. Chichester said in astonishment:"Her HUSBAND?"
3621Mrs. Chichester turned to her daughter:"Ethel?"
3621Mrs. Chichester went on:"Am I to tell him that no maid will stay with her?
3621NOW?"
3621No?
3621No?
3621Nor ME?
3621Not to their landlord?"
3621Now, what could ye give me instead of him?"
3621Now, why should ye want to dhrive it all away from me?"
3621Now-- tell me-- what is her character?
3621Now-- will you undertake the training of the young lady?"
3621Oh, my darlin'', what is it?
3621Oh, my dear, my dear, ca n''t you guess?
3621Oh, ye wo n''t tell me aunt, will ye?
3621Our going back?
3621PRIVATE?"
3621Patting"Michael"on the head she said to the footman:"Ye wo n''t hurt him, will ye?"
3621Peg followed her and called up to her:"May I talk to ye?"
3621Peg grasped the full meaning of Ethel''s words:"And will ye have nothin''if I go away?"
3621Peg held her resolutely:"What d''ye mane by INSULT?
3621Peg imitated the young man''s well- bred, polished tone:"Wah ye bawn theah?"
3621Peg looked at her doubtfully a moment then turned to Hawkes and asked him:"Where''s me uncle?"
3621Peg looked at him in whimsical astonishment:"You''d be?
3621Peg o''your heart?
3621Peg persisted:"Tell me-- are ye ralely dependin''on ME?
3621Peg whispered:"Did ye know about that five thousand pounds when I''m twenty- one?"
3621Perhaps-- and then--?
3621Poor, staunch, loyal, honest, true little Peg, going alone to-- what?
3621Presently he felt her small hand creep into his:"Father,"said Peg;"are yez ralely ashamed of me when I''m frightened like that?"
3621Presently she relieved the silence by asking him:"What happened last night?"
3621ROT?"
3621Ralely?"
3621Really?"
3621Rest""REST, is it?
3621Roche paused, looked shrewdly, at Kingsnorth and asked him:"What do you intend doing with this estate?"
3621See where I''m comin''?"
3621See?"
3621See?"
3621See?"
3621Send her away?
3621Send me a message, will you?
3621Shall that debt be unpaid?"
3621Shall we?"
3621She chuckled to herself as she turned back to Mrs. Chichester:"Is she me cousin?"
3621She gave an impatient ejaculation and turned back to Peg quickly:"You say you have only been here a minute?"
3621She looked coolly at him as he hesitated and said:"It IS a difficult little word at times, is n''t it?"
3621She looked half- shyly at Ethel and asked her quietly:"Do n''t you like men?"
3621She looked happily up at him and answered:"Do you know one of the first things me father taught me when I was just a little child?"
3621She looked so frail and worn, so desperately ill. After all she was his sister, and again, had she not been punished?
3621She looked up at him, her eyes dancing with mischief:"Misther Jerry, will ye take me all the same if me aunt does n''t consent?"
3621She looked up at him, quizzically:"Suppose we generate poison?
3621She met his look quite frankly and astonished him with the question:"Well?
3621She smiled at the astonished Jerry and asked him:"Do ye know what that is?"
3621She turned back to Jerry:"Did he know about the five thousand?
3621She turned to Jerry and asked:"Does she get a thousand a year for abusin''me?"
3621She turned to the maid:"When did you see my niece last?"
3621She''s with an aunt o''hers bein''educated an''the like""Is it English ye''re goin''to bring her up?"
3621So it''s a wealthy man ye are now, docthor, eh?"
3621Some of the people are quite willing to work--""ARE they?
3621Something forbidden?"
3621Still, I was wondherin''--""What would I be doin''forgettin''the things ye taught me?"
3621Strange in a cabman, eh?"
3621Suddenly a quick flash of jealousy startled through her:"Are ye goin''back to the dance?
3621Suddenly she took Ethel by the shoulders and asked in a voice so low that none of the others heard her:"Was that the reason ye were goin''last night?"
3621Suppose he has n''t any money?
3621Suppose such a thing should really happen?
3621Sure, how was I to know?
3621Tell me it is n''t serious?"
3621Tell me-- Jerry-- yer mother and yer sisters-- they were n''t ashamed o''me, were they?"
3621That she mimics and angers her teachers, refuses to study and plays impish tricks like some mischievous little elf?
3621That she shows no desire to improve?
3621The COLD places"She paused, then asked"Going alone?"
3621The Chichesters beggars?
3621The FIRST?
3621The dear wife well too?"
3621The funeral--?"
3621The imp?
3621The little devil?
3621The old lady straightened it:"Can you not keep your hair out of your eyes?
3621The one thought that beat through her quick brain was:"Will Jerry come back for me?"
3621The one thought that was passing through her mind was:"How much did that girl hear Brent say and how much did she see Mr. Brent do?"
3621The poor lady looked at Peg through misty eyes and said reproachfully:"WHY that dress?
3621Then he said eagerly:"Do you suppose your mother would allow Miss Margaret to go?"
3621Then he spoke to the others:"Now, may I have a few moments alone with my ward?"
3621Then out of the embarrassing silence Jerry remarked:"Just coming from the dance?
3621Then she asked him:"What do you intend doing?"
3621Then the thought came to her,--were the Chichesters really selfish?
3621Then why did not"Jerry"do the same?
3621There was a look of half- triumph on his face as much as to say:"Now who would not make a mistake like that?
3621There was a pathetic catch in his voice as he turned to Ethel and said reproachfully:"You think me purely selfish?"
3621There was indignation, surprise and anger in Ethel''s question:"How long have you been here?"
3621This sudden craving for your father?"
3621To YOU?"
3621WHAT?"
3621WHOM?"
3621WHY, I ask you?
3621WHY?"
3621Wait for good fortune?
3621Was Peg herself entirely immune?
3621Was all her misery to end?
3621Was it fair to her husband?
3621Was it just?
3621Was it not for her father?
3621Was it not largely her own fault if they had been?
3621Was it possible that this creature was her sister Angela''s child?
3621Was she coming back to him-- transformed by the magic wand of association-- a great lady?
3621Was the condition he saw due to English injustice or Irish dishonesty?
3621We ARE friends, are n''t we?"
3621Well, had he not taken from the English one of her fairest daughters as his wife?
3621Well?"
3621Were ye?"
3621Were you in-- danger?"
3621What are ye ravin''about at all?"
3621What are ye sayin'', dear?"
3621What are ye talkin''about?
3621What are you thinking?"
3621What can I tell him?"
3621What could this grave, dignified- looking man want with them?
3621What course would Mrs. Chichester take?
3621What d''ye suppose ye''d be goin''to?
3621What do ye do with yer spare time?"
3621What do ye suppose he''d do to one he took no oath with at all?
3621What do ye think I''ve become?
3621What do ye think, eh?"
3621What do you know about her?
3621What do you say?"
3621What do you think will become of you?"
3621What do you think?"
3621What does it mane?
3621What for, I''d like to know?"
3621What good can this meetin''do?
3621What has my a here been?
3621What has yer money an''yer breedin''done for you?
3621What has your name meant?
3621What in the world had become of her?
3621What is it?
3621What is it?"
3621What is it?"
3621What is it?"
3621What is yer great cure for vice?
3621What is yours?"
3621What must Sir Gerald think of her?
3621What must you think of me?"
3621What new mood was this?
3621What of it?
3621What right had it to CLOSE''em?
3621What right had she to condemn people wholesale for feeling and practising it?
3621What right?"
3621What sentence is he likely to get?"
3621What then?"
3621What training is better than MARRIAGE?"
3621What was she doing there, she, the sister of their, till now, absentee landlord?
3621What was she to do?
3621What was this odd little fellow trying to tell her?
3621What was to be done with this barbarian?
3621What would be the outcome?
3621What would befall her if he were taken from her?
3621What would happen?
3621What would she be doing shut up in a little white- and- gold room all day?
3621What would you do?
3621What would_ I_ be doin'', marryin''the likes of you?
3621What''s got into yer head about goin''?"
3621What''s the use of fussing?
3621What''s up?"
3621What?"
3621When I''m twenty- one?"
3621When did ye find it out?"
3621When she was little more than half way up Alaric, who had been watching her nervously, called to her:"Where are you off to, Ethel?"
3621Whenever he would speak of marriage Peg would laugh scornfully:"Who would I be of AFTHER marryin''I''d like to know?
3621Where are ye goin''?"
3621Where did you get this?"
3621Where else would I go?"
3621Where in the wurrld would I find a man like you?"
3621Where is she at all?"
3621Where would she be?
3621Where''s the good that would be doin''me?
3621While she is waiting for admission we will return to the fortunes of the rudely- disturbed LOVERS(?).
3621Who WAS he?
3621Who are they I''d like to know that I must n''t speak his name in their presence?
3621Who could tell this girl was your niece?"
3621Who in the wide world can YOU teach?"
3621Who in the world does she mean?"
3621Who is it?"
3621Who was she?
3621Who was this extraordinary little person?
3621Who will put money into a country that is ridden by these scoundrels?
3621Why ca n''t it always be like this?
3621Why did he let her play and romp and joke and banter with him as though they had been children and equals?
3621Why did n''t ye tell me ye had a title?"
3621Why did n''t ye tell me ye were a gentleman?
3621Why do n''t ye sit down beside her sometimes and find out what she, thinks and who she sees?
3621Why does n''t he kiss me AUNT''S hand as well?"
3621Why had he insisted on her going?
3621Why had he not told her?
3621Why have them batthered and shot down by the soldiers?"
3621Why not forget the whole thing and let''s all settle down into nice, cosy, jolly little pals, eh?"
3621Why not one of the dresses I gave you?"
3621Why should I?
3621Why should I?
3621Why should YOU be proud of ME?"
3621Why should it be the lot of our people-- men and women born to a birthright of freedom?
3621Why should n''t girls be taught to be honest with each other?
3621Why should n''t we discuss events of national importance?
3621Why should n''t we just laugh and dance our way through it all?"
3621Why should this affliction be thrust upon her?
3621Why was n''t I told?"
3621Why, not be truthful about ourselves sometimes?
3621Why, ye like yer dog betther than you do ME, do n''t ye?"
3621Why-- should-- it?"
3621Why?
3621Why?
3621Why?"
3621Will ye put him to bed for me like a good boy?"
3621Will you allow her to go to a dance at the Assembly Rooms tonight?"
3621Will you ever think of me?"

3621With all the throuble in the wurrld beatin''in me brain and throbbin''in me heart?"
3621Without waiting for Ethel to reply he hurried on:"And talkin''of BABIES, have you seen MARGARET anywhere?"
3621Wo n''t ye make friends with me?"
3621Wo n''t ye say I''good night''?
3621Would he be disappointed?
3621Would n''t ye like to have a child of yer own, Ethel?"
3621Would she be the same Peg?
3621Would ye like to hear some of them?"
