47237Margaret-- Margaret Waring? 47237 May I have a cup of tea, Miss Chase?"

47237Nonsense, Mr. Laurence-- you are not jealous? 47237 Now, why ca n''t you be honest and say you are glad to see us start?"
47237Of what are you thinking?
47237Oh, I thought-- that is, from the way you spoke--"What did you think?
47237Oh, is n''t it? 47237 One of the gentlemen had a hurt--""Was the doctor here?"

47237Sybil, you have called yourself my friend; answer me: do you believe that Hinchley loves Margaret?
47237Sybil,said Laurence, in a grave, low voice,"is this thing true?"
47237Then what''s the use of talking about it,exclaimed Yates, angrily,"if he wo n''t drink or play?"
47237Then you did n''t speak to him?
47237Then you pity her for the misfortunes she has brought upon herself?
47237Think so?
47237This is Monday, is n''t it?
47237Well, you are not frightened, now it is all over?
47237Well?

47237What proof have you?
47237What''ll we do?
47237What''s the good of keeping this up? 47237 When shall I expect you?"
47237Where is Miss Waring?

47237Where''s Tom?
47237Which I am morally certain you will spill on the carpet-- won''t he, Miss Waring?
47237Who ever supposed it was any thing else?
47237Who has been here to- day?
47237Who is there?
47237Who then?
47237Who wrote the letter Mr. Laurence saw you give me?
47237Why are you here, sir, and who is that man?
47237Why did n''t you keep them?
47237Why did you not say to me frankly-- I detest this marriage?
47237Why have you come here?
47237Why?
47237Wife?
47237Will there never be an end? 47237 Will you go and sit with my uncle for a while, Miss Chase?"
47237Will you promise to conduct yourselves like men?
47237Yes; did you expect me?
47237You are certain?
47237You are very obliging--"Oh, she means to beat you unmercifully,interrupted Margaret;"do n''t you, Miss Chase?"
47237You do n''t feel afraid, Sybil? 47237 You have had no tea,"she said;"shall I order it brought up?"
47237You have n''t had any supper, Tom?
47237You have no business on hand?
47237You will not feel lonely if I go?
47237You would not care in what way; you would not mind the occupation?
47237Are you blaming Miss Waring or me?"
47237Are you fond of trout- fishing, Miss Chase?"
47237At the close he said:"When will he be at the diggings?"
47237But what is your news?"
47237Can you blame me for longing to have another home than this?"
47237Did I faint?"
47237Did you write to Hinchley?"
47237Do you consider that she conducts herself as an engaged person should?"
47237Do you know him?"
47237Does it desert you now?"
47237Had there been any?
47237Hinchley?"
47237I have got out of worse scrapes than this-- fudge, what''s this place compared to Australia?"
47237I know she tells you all her troubles freely enough; why should you refuse to listen to my part of the story?"
47237I say, California sheep get pretty tough, now do n''t they?"
47237I suppose every wife ought to be exceedingly careful; but then, is a woman to be deprived of every bit of sentiment or romance?"
47237Just now I want to know what brought that Laurence here?"
47237Miserable, cowardly girl, why did you not come frankly and tell me the truth?"
47237Miss Chase seated herself by the tray, while Laurence turned to Margaret:"Where is Hinchley?"
47237Now will you come?"
47237Shall we go down?"
47237She turned at the sound of his footstep, and demanded, angrily:"What do you wish more?
47237Sybil waved that claim to consideration carelessly aside, and went on:"There was a party of strangers at the house one night last week?"
47237Tell me: do you believe any woman who loved a man would act as she does?
47237There may be half a dozen robberies-- will one more make any great difference?"
47237They rode toward her; as they reached the spot, she rose and called again:"You are not hurt, Miss Waring?"
47237What did he want?
47237Who knows how many listeners we may have?"
47237Why did she tremble so violently in the first clasp of his arms?
47237Why do I weep for Thee?
47237Why should you always blame me?"
47237With all this, why was there so much pain left in her heart?
47237Yates?"
47237Yates?"
47237You was afraid I should kill him, eh?"
47237You will be back to dinner?"
47237You will be my friend; say, will you not try to help me?"
47237You wo n''t draw back?"
47237groaned Margaret, almost fainting from a sharp recoil of outraged feeling,"is there no man living who will avenge me on this libeler?"
47237tell man unsought that you loved him?
47237where the deuce are you, I say?"
41415Althea,she said,"do n''t you understand?
41415Am I to say that you are at home this afternoon, ma''am?
41415Am I?
41415Am I?
41415And am I never to see the children again?
41415And can you suggest to whom they were written, if not to yourself?
41415And do n''t you think I''m glad now?
41415And has no one ever guessed-- has no one ever known?
41415And have you no clue to what has happened? 41415 And have you thought,"he asked in a constrained voice,"what you are going to do?
41415And surely you think so, too?
41415And that worthless creature, Jack Hinton-- does he know too?
41415And what do you yourself think?
41415And what have you been doing since then?
41415And what will you do,asked Banfield in a very low voice,"if he fails?"
41415And why not, pray?
41415And why,he said impressively,"had that woman-- the nurse, I mean-- no mistress?
41415Are these pounds?
41415Bob Uvedale? 41415 But Mary, why do n''t you consult your priest?
41415But of course you received others?
41415But what would you have me do?
41415But where_ is_ Perceval?
41415But why?
41415But you''re not going to stay in, are you?
41415Can I just come in and speak to you, sir? 41415 Can I see Mr. Hinton?
41415Could you get at it without Dick''s knowing?
41415Crying?
41415Did n''t she come?
41415Did n''t you know that there was only Matilda Wellow coming?
41415Did you know that she was there? 41415 Did you not tell me this morning that you had never met Jarvice?"
41415Did you really come to ask me to do that, David, and that although you think so ill of me?
41415Do n''t you think I know that? 41415 Do n''t you?"
41415Do you contemplate leaving me for another man?
41415Do you know,she had said gravely,"exactly what your income is?"
41415Do you-- can you possibly mean----"--Matilda Wellow? 41415 Does Miss Rosaleen Tara live here?
41415Germaine''s an army chap, is n''t he?
41415Give you some heads? 41415 Gone back to London?"
41415Has he been like that long?
41415Has he? 41415 Have I anyone to suggest?"
41415Have you still that five thousand pounds Cousin Andrew left you?
41415He looks very bad, do n''t''e, ma''am?
41415Hinton?
41415How dare you insult me so?
41415How dare you insult me? 41415 How have you been living?"
41415How''s your fat friend?
41415I am sorry, very sorry, that I had to tell Wingfield,he said;"but, darling, why should you mind so much?
41415I do n''t suppose I need tell you, Matt, what has happened-- or what is just going to happen-- to our David and Tiddy Wellow?
41415I do n''t understand what you mean, Oliver? 41415 I know,"said her brother, wincing at the sound of his late wife''s name,"you mean Nat Bower?"
41415I say,he exclaimed, rather suddenly,"this is better than Bedford Park, eh?
41415I suppose Rosy is well? 41415 I suppose everyone at Market Dalling thinks I''m a bad woman?
41415I suppose the money Buck brought you to- day is included in this amount?
41415I suppose you mean to pay it all back? 41415 I suppose you will now admit that you know who wrote these letters?"
41415I suppose,he said brutally,"that you can always depend on getting help from your lover?"
41415I suppose,she said slowly,"that you have never thought, Dave, that there might be a simple way out of your difficulties?"
41415I was n''t unkind to you, was I? 41415 I wonder if I can take in the lamps now, Mr. Theodore?
41415Ill?
41415Is Mrs. Panfillen ill?
41415Is it invested in Dick''s name?
41415It is-- isn''t it?--poor Hinton?
41415James Tapster, Esquire?
41415Kate,said Matt,"are you awake?"
41415Matilda Wellow?
41415May Kate bring in the lamps, father?
41415Mrs. Germaine''s quite another sort of beauty, the pocket Venus style, is n''t she? 41415 My darling, surely you do not imagine-- that I am thinking... of leaving you?"
41415My dear Mrs. Scrope-- what is the matter? 41415 My lover?
41415Now, I should like you to tell me, if you do n''t mind doing so, where, when, and how this name and address came to be written?
41415Of course you can, Kate,he said quickly,"why not?
41415Peter Joliffe?
41415Rabbit? 41415 Rosaleen-- why?"
41415Rosy?
41415Shall I come with you?
41415Stop a moment, Theodore; do you really wish this discussion to take place before your father? 41415 Surely you think it''s the best thing that could happen to him?"
41415Then do I understand that you are acting for Mr. Hinton in the matter? 41415 Then you told him?
41415This is rather informal, is n''t it? 41415 Well?"
41415What I did to you?
41415What is it?
41415What is it?
41415Whatever made you behave so?
41415When did he begin to give you money?
41415Who it is?
41415Why did n''t you tell me then? 41415 Why did you come here, David, and frighten me like this?
41415Why did you tell me?
41415Why do n''t you say something?
41415Why should David go to London?
41415Why should I tell you?
41415Why should it be?
41415Why, how did you ever guess that?
41415Why, whatever has he done that for? 41415 With Fanny?"
41415Would you kindly witness my will? 41415 Yes, father?"
41415Yes?
41415You do n''t believe me?
41415You do n''t suppose I tell Dick everything?
41415You have n''t looked at the_ Post_ this morning? 41415 You mean that I might marry again?
41415You really believed that I should grow tired of you,--that I should wish to leave you?
41415You see the idea-- that of leasehold marriage? 41415 You sent for me to take him home-- dead?"
41415You wish everything to go to Louise? 41415 *****My dear boy, what_ is_ the matter?"
41415*****"What are you doing, Oliver?
4141515, Calthorpe Street?
414159?"
41415A great fear came into the son''s mind; he turned to Major Lane, and muttered in an urgent, agonised whisper,"Is it-- can it be a seizure?
41415A kindness?
41415ACCORDING TO MEREDITH 151 V. SHAMEFUL BEHAVIOUR?
41415After all, life does get smoothed out, does n''t it?
41415And yet----?
41415And yet?
41415And, after all, what harm had there been in the whole halcyon adventure-- what injury had it caused to any human being?
41415Are there any new developments?"
41415Are you alone, Althea?
41415Are you aware that if you were run over and killed on your way home to- day Louise would have no standing?
41415Are you quite mad?
41415Banfield?"
41415Bob Uvedale is really fond of you, Oliver,--do you honestly think he would make love to me?"
41415But here in town?
41415But how about Maud?
41415But now?
41415But stay, had Louise Dering proved herself so unpractical during the early years of her married life?
41415But what did he really know of either of them-- of their secret thoughts-- their deep desires and ambitions-- their shames and secret sins?
41415But what matters now what I then thought?
41415But what then?
41415But what was the constable saying-- speaking, as constables always do to the Mr. Tapsters of this world, in respectful and subdued tones?
41415But where am I to find the''nice, kind woman''?
41415But why torture himself uselessly?
41415But_ Bella_?
41415By the way, I suppose you were married in Denmark?"
41415Ca n''t you see the dreadful thing that has happened?"
41415Can I see her?"
41415Can you come now, at once?"
41415Can you hear what I say, Althea?"
41415Curle?"
41415D''you think that was pleasant?"
41415Dearth of real news is, I suppose, responsible for this?"
41415Dering?"
41415Did David write to you?"
41415Did a dim gleam of what he was feeling penetrate Bella''s brain?
41415Did you think he would see her?"
41415Do people run after her as much as that?"
41415Do you mean to say that when we first arranged matters you intended our-- our marriage to be, in any case, only a temporary union?"
41415Farningham?"
41415For the first two or three months of his widowerhood( how else could he term his present peculiar wifeless condition?)
41415Free?
41415Had he forgotten her?
41415Has Dering been able to give no explanation of this-- this-- horrible business?"
41415He said he could n''t spend the money he''d got----""How much have you had from him?"
41415He''s a friend of Carrie Lonsdale-- you remember her, David?
41415Hinton?"
41415How about William?
41415How about the very considerable expense to which he had been put in connection with the divorce proceedings?
41415How could I divine that you alone would be different from all the men of whom I had ever heard?
41415How could you possibly have told what was in the man''s mind?
41415How dare you say, how dare you_ think_, I have a lover?"
41415How had this young man, whom he took to be one of Hinton''s dissipated friends, learnt even this one fact concerning poor Dering''s affairs?
41415How long is this sort of thing to go on?"
41415How on earth could he have found out?
41415I fancy it is still owing?"
41415I mean, I suppose I may take it that that young fellow has gone and left you?"
41415I suppose a floor in one of these houses would cost us a tremendous lot; even beyond_ our_ means, Wingfield?"
41415I suppose you would like her taken upstairs, sir?"
41415I suppose"--her voice was trembling with self- pity--"that we shall have to go and live in the country now?"
41415I take it you have no one to suggest?"
41415I thought you meant sending the child in to see me to- day?"
41415I was Mr. Philip Dering''s oldest friend and solicitor----""Then-- then it was_ you_ who were making his will?"
41415I wonder if you remember"--he paused, and then went on firmly,"an interview you and I had many years ago?"
41415II MR. JARVICE''S WIFE I"About that letter of your uncle''s?
41415In what way are we, my father and myself, concerned in the Jarvice affair?
41415Is Rosy ill, or-- or dead?"
41415Is it possible that you do not realise that I am escaping a much worse fate-- that of having to live on?
41415It is n''t as if he knew about you and me, that would be something real to grumble at, would n''t it, darling?
41415Jarvice?"
41415Jealous of Joan Panfillen?
41415Joliffe-- Uvedale?"
41415Let me see, how long is it that you have been"--he hesitated awkwardly--"together?"
41415Mad?
41415Not educated?
41415Not if I gave you her address?"
41415Notes?
41415Now, should you have the misfortune to lose Louise, to whom would you wish to devise this fifteen thousand pounds?
41415Of course, I have no call to interfere, Mr. Dering; but if a large sum is involved might it not be better to wait?"
41415Of course, no one can answer for another, and yet, Kate, if anything happened to Matt, I do n''t see you marrying again----?"
41415Oh, my boy, what is the matter?"
41415Or is he next door?
41415Or was that change due to the art of the French dressmaker?
41415Scrope''s Egeria?
41415She added suspiciously,"But how did you learn what''s happened?
41415Surely it was worth almost anything in the way of self- sacrifice to have brought such a look to his sister''s face?
41415Then he also had come in by the park side of the house?
41415Then he turned, his whole voice altering and softening:"Father, perhaps you would not mind my asking Major Lane to go into the library with me?
41415Then she did n''t want him to go out?
41415Then, with sudden irritation, he asked himself why he, Philip Dering, should waste his short time for thought in sorrowing over this poor dead woman?
41415This being so, why think of her?
41415This, then, was her husband?
41415True, Uvedale had said to him,"Feeling a bit chippy, old chap?"
41415V SHAMEFUL BEHAVIOUR?
41415Very sorry for the lady, that is; as for the other-- well, I''m pretty sure he''ll cheat Broadmoor, and that without much delay, eh, doctor?
41415Was all that money to be wasted?
41415Was it possible that his mind, dwelling constantly on Flossy, had evoked her wraith?
41415What I really want to get at, old man, is whether my wife, if she became a widow, would have to give any actual legal proof of our marriage?
41415What answer, what denial could he make?
41415What business took him back to London, to- day?"
41415What chance had he, what memories had their common barren past, to fight this intangible appealing vision?
41415What could be the matter?
41415What could she be doing?
41415What does this mean?"
41415What had Flossy meant by asking him if he had ever been mad?
41415What had he, Oliver Germaine, been about, to allow his wife to become so intimate with two men, of whom he knew nothing?
41415What is it you want?"
41415What kindness could she, Althea Scrope, do Joan Panfillen?
41415What significance had she intended it to carry?
41415What was it he had heard about these people quite lately, in fact, that very day?
41415What was she to say, what story could she invent to tell those who would come and press her with quick eager questions?
41415What were Uvedale''s relations, his real relations, with Bella?
41415What you''ve been shown are only copies-- surely you understood that?
41415Where else were modern women to be found at once so practical and so cultivated, so pure- minded and so large- hearted?
41415Where was the use of his going out into the hall and catching Nurse on her way to the kitchen?
41415Which of the two men who had just left the house was she expecting to come back as soon as he, poor deluded fool, was safely out of the way?
41415Who-- what?"
41415Why did she ask whether he was going to stay in?
41415Why had n''t he thought of this simple test before,--before shaming himself and shaming his wife by base suspicions?
41415Why had n''t she said so at the time, then?
41415Why have n''t you taken them in before?"
41415Why have you come here at all after-- after what you did to me?"
41415Why indeed should she be still out when Mr. Bustard did come?
41415Why should I?
41415Why should he?
41415Why should she do this thing, why leave her house at Joan Panfillen''s bidding?
41415Why should such a thing not come to him as well as to another?
41415Why, what would the servants think, hearing the front door slam like that?
41415Will you read them to me?"
41415Would she be compelled, I mean, to show her''marriage lines''?"
41415Would you like me to go away-- or-- or can I be of any use?"
41415Yes?
41415You had a nice, comfortable home, had n''t you?"
41415You have thought it wise to make a provisional will?
41415You know that their marriage-- his and Althea''s-- took place from our house?"
41415You remember my little legacy?"
41415You want to know why I came here to- day?
41415You were n''t upset like this last year over that business in Angle Alley, and that was a sight worse than this, eh?"
41415Your sister, of course, always hoped that I was a bad woman?"
41415_ It would n''t do._""Would n''t it?"
41415and she pressed more closely to him,"surely, Matt, you do n''t doubt that Matilda Wellow will make him a good wife, and be kind to the child?"
41415he asked,"well, Rosaleen, shall we both forgive each other-- and make a fresh beginning?"
41415said Thomas Carden slowly;"am I so, Theodore?
41415she said,"who is it?
41415that she would not have a right to a penny of this money, or even to any of the furniture which is in your house?
41415who''s this coming now?"
41415why had he let her go?
2175( Again changing his tempo to say to Valentine, who is putting his stick down against the corner of the garden seat) If you''ll allow me, sir?
2175--or our father?
2175A father, too, perhaps, as well as a husband, Mr. Crampton?
2175A little more fish, miss?
2175A potman, eh?
2175After all what, Finch?
2175Am I howled at?
2175Am I inspiring?
2175Am I on time?
2175Am I to infer that you have omitted that indispensable part of your social equipment?
2175Am I to understand that you have engaged yourself to this young gentleman?
2175And a bad father?
2175And now had we not better go and see what Dolly is doing?
2175And now, Mr. Crampton, what can we do for you?
2175And pray why?
2175And so you advise me not to get married, Mr. Crampton?
2175And the other gentleman?
2175And this young gentleman?
2175And what right have you to choose your own father?
2175And you want to be more hardened, do you?
2175Any family?
2175Anything for you, ma''am?
2175Anything more, ma''am?
2175Anything special for you, sir?
2175Anything wrong?
2175Are my children overdressed?
2175Are they expensive?
2175Are those my children?
2175Are we like what you expected?
2175Are you Mr. Clandon?
2175Are you in love with my daughter?
2175Are you joking?
2175Are you quite sure Mrs. Clandon is coming back before lunch?
2175Are you quite sure?
2175Are you ready?
2175Are you resolved to quarrel?
2175Are you serious, Gloria?
2175As well as she does?
2175Been asking a lot of questions?
2175Better, eh?
2175Bread for the lady, sir?
2175But as I say to him, where''s the difference after all?
2175But was it altogether his fault?
2175But what about Dorothee- ee- a?
2175But what did you do that for?
2175But what did you expect, Finch?
2175But where is the counsel''s opinion to come from?
2175But why did I do it?
2175But why did you do such a thing, Dolly?
2175But why?
2175But you surely do not believe that these affairs-- mere jokes of the children''s-- were serious, Mr. Valentine?
2175But-- and now will you excuse my frankness?
2175But-- but-- oh, do n''t you see what you have set to work in my imagination?
2175C a n you dance?
2175Ca n''t you earn one?
2175Ca n''t you guess?
2175Ca n''t you remember someone whom you loved, or( shyly) at least liked in a childish way?
2175Can I get you anything else, sir?
2175Can we have dinner at seven instead of half- past?
2175Can you believe that?
2175Can you get us something to wear, waiter?
2175Can you pay me?
2175Can you procure a couple of dominos and false noses for my father and Mr. McComas?
2175Can you, in return, point out to me any way of inducting them to hold their tongues?
2175Cheese, sir; or would you like a cold sweet?
2175Claret cup, syphon, one Scotch and one Irish?
2175Cock- eyed Crampton, sir, of the Crooked Billet, is it?
2175Coffee, miss?
2175Come: shall I teach you something, Mrs. Clandon?
2175Crampton: I can depend on you, ca n''t I?
2175Crampton: do you know what''s been the matter with me to- day?
2175Damn them?--eh?
2175Did she allow it?
2175Did she?
2175Did that difficulty strike you, Dolly?
2175Did you ever feel that before-- for another woman?
2175Did you ever say that before?
2175Did you howl?
2175Did you observe?
2175Do I look like it?
2175Do I take your point rightly, Mr. McComas?
2175Do n''t usually lunch with his family, perhaps, sir?
2175Do n''t you find it rather nasty?
2175Do n''t you know me?
2175Do n''t you know?
2175Do n''t you remember me at all?
2175Do they do that in England, William?
2175Do you always go on like this?
2175Do you charge five shillings for everything?
2175Do you expect me to believe that you are the most beautiful woman in the world?
2175Do you expect my wife to live on what I earn?
2175Do you give up your objection to the dressing, or do you stick to it?
2175Do you go to the meetings of the Dialectical Society still?
2175Do you hear that?
2175Do you intend that we shall never know?
2175Do you know one Crampton, of this town?
2175Do you know that you changed the world for me this morning?
2175Do you know what is due to me as your father?
2175Do you like it?
2175Do you mean to say that you began practising on me?
2175Do you realize that I am your father?
2175Do you really mean what you are saying?
2175Do you really think it would make me beautiful?
2175Do you remember your father?
2175Do you suppose I choose their clothes for them?
2175Do you think I do n''t understand?
2175Do you think I need to be warned now?
2175Do you think that if you were to turn away in disgust from my weakness, I should sit down here and cry like a child?
2175Do you understand that my children have invited that man to lunch, and that he will be here in a few moments?
2175Do you understand that?
2175Do you want to drive me mad?
2175Do you wish to join them in insulting me?
2175Does he own that nice comfortable Bath chair?
2175Does nobody ask a blessing in this household?
2175Does she smoke?
2175Dolly, dear: do n''t you see Mr. McComas?
2175Dolly: are you sorry for your father-- the father with lots of money?
2175Dolly: may I--( offering himself as her partner)?
2175Dolly: whose tact were you noticing only this morning?
2175Dominos and noses, sir?
2175Eh?
2175Excuse me, Mr. Valentine; but had you not better go?
2175Fast?
2175Feel what?
2175Finch: do you realize what is happening?
2175Finch: does he keep a public house?
2175Finch: some crusted old port for you, as a respectable family solicitor, eh?
2175Five shillings, you said it would be?
2175For instance---?
2175Gay?
2175Gentlemen come yet, ma''am?
2175Gloria: are you satisfied?
2175Gloria?
2175Has Finch had a drink?
2175Has anything annoyed you, Mr. Valentine?
2175Has anything happened?
2175Has gunnery anything to do with Gloria?
2175Has he any money?
2175Has your mother never told you anything about me?
2175Have I done anything insulting?
2175Have I the honor of addressing Mrs. Clandon?
2175Have a six of Irish in it, Finch?
2175Have n''t you?
2175Have you a grandfather?
2175Have you any intention of getting married?
2175Have you begun again?
2175Have you ever studied the subject of gunnery-- artillery-- cannons and war- ships and so on?
2175Have you never--?
2175Have you ordered for seven?
2175Have you thought of choosing a profession yet?
2175Have you thought of that?
2175He looks at his watch as he continues) Not that yet, sir, is it?
2175He?
2175Helpless?
2175Her color rises a little; and she adds, with restrained anger) You do not believe me?
2175Hm?
2175Honest Injun?
2175How are you getting on, Crampton?
2175How can you think it pretty and not like it?
2175How dare you?
2175How did he take it?
2175How do you do, Mr. McComas?
2175How do you know that he is not nice?
2175How do you propose to alter that now?
2175How is a man to look dignified when he''s infatuated?
2175How is the toothache, Dolly?
2175How long do you think it would take me to learn to be a really smart waiter?
2175How long has he given you to pay?
2175How old are you, Mr. Crampton?
2175How old are you?
2175How old is he?
2175How so, pray?
2175How soon d''y''think you''ll be able to pay me if you have no better manners than to make game of your patients?
2175I am a free woman: why should I not tell you?
2175I beg your pardon?
2175I daresay he''d be delighted if-- er--?
2175I do not mean to be unsympathetic, Mr. Valentine; but what can I say?
2175I presume, sir, you are Master Philip( offering his hand)?
2175I suppose you have n''t been here long?
2175I''m a man, with the feelings of our common humanity: have I no rights, no claims?
2175I''m their father: do they deny that?
2175I''ve always cracked nuts with them: what else are they for?
2175If I may be allowed to change the subject, Miss Clandon, what is the established religion in Madeira?
2175If you''ve been here six weeks, and mine was your first tooth, the practice ca n''t be very large, can it?
2175In all these years who have I had round me?
2175In what way have I given you any reason to complain?
2175Indeed?
2175Indeed?
2175Irish for you, sir, I think, sir?
2175Is he gone?
2175Is he to have none-- not even pity-- from his own flesh and blood?
2175Is his name Crampton?
2175Is it pretty?
2175Is it true?
2175Is it you, sir?
2175Is n''t that rather fanciful?
2175Is that agreed?
2175Is that clear?
2175Is that true?
2175Is that your hat?
2175Is that your last word?
2175Is there anything else you would like to know?
2175Is there?
2175Is this our father, Mr. McComas?
2175Is this right?
2175Is your objection an objection to marriage as an institution, or merely an objection to marrying me personally?
2175Is your son a waiter, too, William?
2175It''s a curiously helpless sensation: is n''t it?
2175It''s the unexpected that always happens, is n''t it?
2175It''s true that I did n''t respect your old pride: why should I?
2175Loud?
2175MRS. CLANDON( incredulously, looking hard at him) Are you Finch McComas?
2175MRS. CLANDON}( all{ What do you mean?
2175Madam?
2175May I ask just this one question?
2175May I ask whom I have the pleasure of entertaining?
2175May I have a word?
2175May n''t I have just one dance with you?
2175Might I take the liberty of asking you to let her have it at once, sir?
2175Miss Clandon?
2175Miss Gloria, I presume?
2175Mother: is what Dolly told me true?
2175Mother: what right had you to do it?
2175Mr. Clandon?
2175Mr. Crampton, Sir?
2175Mr. McComas: this communication should be made, should it not, by a man of infinite tact?
2175Mr. Valentine: can you hold your tongue for a moment?
2175Mr. Valentine: do you think there is anything fast or loud about Phil and Dolly?
2175Mr. Valentine: will you take that side( indicating the side nearest the parapet) with Gloria?
2175Mrs. Clandon: have I said anything insulting?
2175My child: how can you expect me to like it or to approve of it?
2175My dear, good young friends, why on earth did n''t you tell me that before?
2175My dear: what is the matter?
2175My dearest, how can you be so rude?
2175My father was a witness of what passed to- day, was he not, Mrs. Clandon?
2175Need I explain it?
2175Nice morning, sir?
2175No, no: let me alone, ca n''t you?
2175Now look here, Crampton: are you at all ashamed of yourself?
2175Now look here, Dolly: am I going to conduct this business or are you?
2175Now may I ask, to begin with, have you ever been in an English seaside resort before?
2175Now what happens in the duel of sex?
2175Now you, Mr. Crampton: what point in this business have you most at heart?
2175Now, once for all, Crampton, did your promises of good behavior only mean that you wo n''t complain if there''s nothing to complain of?
2175Number 413 for my mother and Miss Gloria as before; and--( turning enquiringly to Crampton) Eh?
2175Oh, Miss Clandon, Miss Clandon: how could you?
2175Oh, come, what do you know about it?
2175Oh, may n''t I see her before I go?
2175Oh, there''s a solicitor with them, is there?
2175Oh, what did I always say, Phil?
2175Oh, why not?
2175Oh, will you understand, if I tell you the truth, that I am not making an advance to you?
2175On your honor, Mr. Valentine, are you in earnest?
2175Our appearance?
2175Our manners?
2175PHILIP}{ What happened to you?
2175Phil: can you believe such a horrible thing as that about our father-- what mother said just now?
2175Please, who are you?
2175Pray which sort?
2175Quite sure you do n''t mean your daughter?
2175Seven, ma''am?
2175Shall I come?
2175Shall I ring?
2175Sir?
2175Sit down, wo n''t you?
2175Sit down, wo n''t you?
2175So do you, Miss Clandon?
2175So you want to know my age, do you?
2175Sounds rheumaticky, does n''t it?
2175Stone ginger, miss?
2175Surely you did not want to accept it?
2175Thank you-- er-- if you do n''t mind-- I mean if you will be so kind--(to the parlor maid testily) What is it?
2175Thank you; but wo n''t this young lady--(indicating Gloria, who is close to the chair)?
2175That''s a come down, is n''t it?
2175That''s odd, is n''t it?
2175That''s touching: is n''t it?
2175That''s what you mean, eh?
2175The Church, perhaps?
2175Then Mr. Clandon has not yet arrived?
2175Then there is a Mrs. Crampton?
2175Then why did you come back?
2175Then, Mr. Bohun, you do n''t think this match an unwise one?
2175Thick or clear, sir?
2175This is the younger lady, is it?
2175This was what you rang for, ma''am, I hope?
2175Those are not your enthusiasms and passions, I take it?
2175To ask him his intentions?
2175Tooth bad?
2175Turbot, sir?
2175Under such a circumstance, is it fair to ask me to lunch with you when you do n''t know your own father?
2175Valentine--?
2175Was it mine?
2175Was it?
2175Was-- was it you, sir?
2175We can begin now, I suppose?
2175Well come, Dolly: how do you know you''re not?
2175Well, children?
2175Well, daughter?
2175Well, father?
2175Well, have I done so?
2175Well, that was to be expected, sooner or later, sir, was n''t it?
2175Well, what did the man do?
2175Well, why not, if the Cause of Humanity is the only thing worth being serious about?
2175Well: shall we run away?
2175Well?
2175Well?
2175Well?
2175Well?
2175Well???
2175Well???
2175Well???
2175What about the children?
2175What about your father-- the lonely old man with the tender aching heart?
2175What am I?
2175What are the hearts of this generation like?
2175What are we discussing now, pray?
2175What are you driving at, Mrs. Clandon?
2175What are you looking at me so hard for?
2175What cheer, Finch?
2175What d''y''mean?
2175What d''y''mean?
2175What d''y''mean?
2175What d''ye mean, boy?
2175What did she tell you, dear?
2175What did you say to him?
2175What did you think of her sister?
2175What difference does it make to you?
2175What do I care for anything in you but your weakness, as you call it?
2175What do you bet that I do n''t get that tooth out without your feeling it?
2175What do you expect us to feel for you-- to do for you?
2175What do you mean?
2175What do you mean?
2175What do you object to in the present circumstances of the children?
2175What do you say?
2175What do you want us to do?
2175What does it matter?
2175What for?
2175What gifts were you born with, pray?
2175What harm will it do, just for once, McComas?
2175What has happened to you, my child?
2175What have I done?
2175What have you to keep a wife on?
2175What is his name?
2175What is it you want?
2175What is it, dear?
2175What is it?
2175What is the matter with you?
2175What is the use of being weak?
2175What name, sir?
2175What on earth are they going to do?
2175What proofs?
2175What right have they to talk to me like that?
2175What the devil is that to you?
2175What was that?
2175What will they think of you?
2175What will your daughter think of me for having brought you here?
2175What''s that heavy thing?
2175What''s that?
2175What''s the matter?
2175What''s the subscription?
2175What''s the time?
2175What''s this place?
2175What''s wrong with Miss Clandon''s dress?
2175What''s your name?
2175What?
2175When did she say that?
2175When the great moment came, who was awakened?
2175Where are the flowing locks?
2175Where does he live?
2175Where is he?
2175Where the beard?--the cloak?--the poetic exterior?
2175Where''s Bohun?
2175Where''s Crampton?
2175Where''s Finch?
2175Where''s Gloria?
2175Where''s McComas?
2175Where''s your beard?
2175Which of us is to tell him the truth?
2175Which was it, Phil?
2175Who did she say that to?
2175Who from?
2175Who is"we"?
2175Who wants to marry her?
2175Who?
2175Who?
2175Whose fault is it that I am a boy?
2175Why are you less civil to us than other people are?
2175Why did Mr. Valentine go away so suddenly, I wonder?
2175Why did n''t you educate me properly?
2175Why did n''t you let me give you gas?
2175Why did n''t you wait till we''d seen you?
2175Why did you never get married, Mr. Crampton?
2175Why do you crack nuts with them?
2175Why do you think it a good sign?
2175Why have you made me come down here?
2175Why not here?
2175Why not?
2175Why not?
2175Why should n''t you?
2175Why should you, pray?
2175Why soap?
2175Why was I tempted?
2175Why?
2175Will nine o''clock suit you?
2175Will that satisfy you?
2175Will you excuse me?
2175Will you excuse these barbarian children of mine, Mr. Valentine?
2175William: what mean you?
2175William: you remember my request to you to regard me as your son?
2175Would Lager be considered vulgar?
2175Would it be too much to ask you to wait five minutes while I get rid of my landlord downstairs?
2175Would one of them have spoken to me as that girl spoke?--would one of them have laughed at me as that boy was laughing at me all the time?
2175Would you blame my sister''s family for objecting to this?
2175Would you employ a solicitor with a beard?
2175Would you employ a solicitor with a sombrero?
2175Would you remember that, do you think?
2175Y o u wish to put self aside, Mrs. Clandon?
2175Yes: it''s embarrassing, is n''t it?
2175Yes: you''ve heard of the duel of sex, have n''t you?
2175Yes?
2175You are evidently not very fond of us-- why should you be?
2175You are not going to question me, are you?
2175You are not sure?
2175You both know what''s going on, do n''t you?
2175You do n''t agree with me, eh?
2175You do n''t happen to have such a thing as a son, yourself, have you?
2175You do n''t like her?
2175You do n''t own the whole house, do you?
2175You do n''t suppose, do you, that I''m in the habit of playing such tricks on my patients as I played on you?
2175You do n''t think that, do you?
2175You hold to your old opinions still?
2175You like them, do you?
2175You liked her better, eh?
2175You mean your mother?
2175You''ll tell us, wo n''t you, Mr. Valentine?
2175Your furniture is n''t quite the latest thing, is it?
2175Your real father, sir?
2175in whom did the depths break up?
2175number three or number five?
2175someone who let you stay in his study and look at his toy boats, as you thought them?
2175what would you do?
2175who ever thought that he would rise to wear a silk gown, sir?
2175who was stirred?
2175you feel it, too?
2542Saved?
2542A lie--?
2542A school friend of my wife''s, I presume?
2542A wonderful thing?
2542After what happened?
2542Afterwards?
2542All over!--Nora, shall you never think of me again?
2542All that large sum?
2542All these things?
2542Already?
2542Am I not your husband--?
2542Am I to understand that you can pay the balance that is owing?
2542And I-- how am I fitted to bring up the children?
2542And I?
2542And can you tell me what I have done to forfeit your love?
2542And comes here everyday?
2542And did your husband never get to know from your father that the money had not come from him?
2542And died soon afterwards?
2542And do you believe that I did it with a light heart?
2542And do you know what they think of me here?
2542And has no one to provide for?
2542And have had some experience of book- keeping?
2542And he is standing waiting in the kitchen?
2542And he left you nothing?
2542And if I asked you now for a--?
2542And in spite of that have you the courage to--?
2542And is it absolutely necessary that it should be here?
2542And is it with a clear and certain mind that you forsake your husband and your children?
2542And may I congratulate you on the result?
2542And no children?
2542And oysters too, I suppose?
2542And since then have you never told your secret to your husband?
2542And then you went off to Italy?
2542And to tell me a lie into the bargain?
2542And what if it did?
2542And what is in this parcel?
2542And what other nice things am I to be allowed to see?
2542And yet--?
2542And you are proud to think of what you have done for your brothers?
2542And you were to appear to do it of your own accord; you were to conceal from me the fact of his having been here; did n''t he beg that of you too?
2542And you?
2542And your husband came back quite well?
2542And your husband keeps the key?
2542Are n''t they darlings?
2542Are n''t they lovely?
2542Are n''t you very tired, Torvald?
2542Are the Helmers really at a dance tonight?
2542Are they not your duties to your husband and your children?
2542Are you aware that is a dangerous confession?
2542Are you content now?
2542Are you going to work tonight?
2542Are you going too, Christine?
2542Are you mad?
2542Are you out of your senses?
2542Are you really so afraid of it, dear?
2542Are you sure of that?
2542Are you sure of that?
2542Are you trying on your dress?
2542Are you very busy, Torvald?
2542Are you?
2542As much of it as you can?
2542At the lock--?
2542Behind your husband''s back?
2542Besides, what use would it be?
2542Bought, did you say?
2542But ca n''t we live here like brother and sister--?
2542But ca n''t you tell us what you will be?
2542But deeds you must believe in?
2542But did it never occur to you that you were committing a fraud on me?
2542But did n''t you tell him no one was in?
2542But do n''t you think it is nice of me, too, to do as you wish?
2542But do you suppose you are any the less dear to me, because you do n''t understand how to act on your own responsibility?
2542But do you think it would--?
2542But how can this well- bred man be so tactless?
2542But it did n''t bite you?
2542But it was often very hard on me, Christine-- because it is delightful to be really well dressed, is n''t it?
2542But matters of business-- such business as you and I have had together-- do you think I do n''t understand that?
2542But now tell me, you extravagant little person, what would you like for yourself?
2542But now that you know it, are you not going to give it up to me?
2542But perhaps I had better go-- for ever?
2542But some day, Nora-- some day?
2542But tell me this-- is he perfectly sincere?
2542But tell me, is Doctor Rank always as depressed as he was yesterday?
2542But what do you refer to?
2542But what is it?
2542But what is this?
2542But what then?
2542But what would my assurances have been worth against yours?
2542But where did you get it from, then?
2542But, Christine, is that possible?
2542But, Nora, how could you possibly do it?
2542But, Nora, would it not be possible to fill it up?
2542But, bah!--once in a way-- That''s so, is n''t it, Doctor Rank?
2542But, dearest Nora, would it have been any good to you?
2542But, do you know, it strikes me that you are looking rather-- what shall I say-- rather uneasy today?
2542But, my dear Nora-- who could the man be?
2542But, my dearest Nora, how do you know anything about such things?
2542But, tell me, was it really something very bad that this Krogstad was guilty of?
2542But, tell me, was n''t it for that very purpose that you asked me to meet you here?
2542But-- the doctor?
2542But-- to come back to the matter in hand-- that must have been a very trying time for you, Mrs. Helmer?
2542By us two-- by us two, who have loved you better than anyone else in the world?
2542Can he--?
2542Can he--?
2542Can the worst--?
2542Can we two have anything to talk about?
2542Can you explain it to me?
2542Can you not understand your place in your own home?
2542Can you suppose I should ever think of such a thing as repudiating you, or even reproaching you?
2542Certainly-- why not?
2542Certainty?
2542Christine, are you saying this deliberately?
2542Christine--?
2542Come, come, what is this?
2542Could n''t I?
2542Could you really do it?
2542Deprave my little children?
2542Did a big dog run after you?
2542Did he go straight into my room?
2542Did he?
2542Did he?
2542Did n''t I tell you so?
2542Did n''t you say so yourself a little while ago-- that you dare not trust me to bring them up?
2542Did n''t you tell me no one had been here?
2542Did n''t you?
2542Did you hear--?
2542Did you know--?
2542Did you notice what good spirits Rank was in this evening?
2542Did you remember to invite Doctor Rank?
2542Did you win a prize in the Lottery?
2542Did you?
2542Do I look as if I were?
2542Do I need to tell you that?
2542Do I?
2542Do n''t you think they will fit me?
2542Do n''t you?
2542Do they ask much for me?
2542Do you ask me to believe that you were brave enough to run a risk to save your wife''s life?
2542Do you believe I am as absolutely heartless as all that?
2542Do you believe that?
2542Do you hear me, Torvald?
2542Do you hear them up there?
2542Do you hear?
2542Do you know anything about it?
2542Do you know the man?
2542Do you know we have just had a great piece of good luck?
2542Do you know what is in this letter?
2542Do you mean never to tell him about it?
2542Do you mean that you gave me a thought?
2542Do you mean that you will--?
2542Do you mind going in to the children for the present?
2542Do you realise what a horribly painful position that would be?
2542Do you remember last Christmas?
2542Do you remember that?
2542Do you see that letter?
2542Do you see?
2542Do you still think I am of no use?
2542Do you suppose I did n''t try, first of all, to get what I wanted as if it were for myself?
2542Do you suppose I do n''t guess who lent you the two hundred and fifty pounds?
2542Do you think I am narrow- minded?
2542Do you think I do n''t know what a lot is wanted for housekeeping at Christmas- time?
2542Do you think I was going to let her remain there after that, and spoil the effect?
2542Do you think so?
2542Do you think they would forget their mother if she went away altogether?
2542Do you understand now what it is you have done for me?
2542Do you understand what you have done?
2542Do you understand what you have done?
2542Doctor Rank, what do you say to a macaroon?
2542Doctor Rank-- are you fond of fancy- dress balls?
2542Does Doctor Rank come here everyday?
2542Does it not occur to you that this is the first time we two, you and I, husband and wife, have had a serious conversation?
2542Does my little Nora acknowledge that at last?
2542Does n''t she look remarkably pretty?
2542Does your husband love you so little, then?
2542Down into the cold, coal- black water?
2542For myself?
2542For what?
2542Good gracious, ca n''t you understand?
2542Good heavens!--went away altogether?
2542Has anyone been here?
2542Has he said anything to you?
2542Has my little spendthrift been wasting money again?
2542Has n''t Miss Sweet Tooth been breaking rules in town today?
2542Has n''t she paid a visit to the confectioner''s?
2542Have n''t I your confidence?
2542Have n''t you been a little bit imprudent?
2542Have n''t you?
2542Have you and your husband thought of mine?
2542Have you any idea what that means?
2542Have you any notion what Society really is?
2542Have you been practising too much?
2542Have you been sitting here waiting for me?
2542Have you been snowballing?
2542Have you changed your things?
2542Have you ever noticed anything of the sort in me?
2542Have you forgotten that it is I who have the keeping of your reputation?
2542Have you had great fun?
2542Have you no knowledge of such laws-- you who are a lawyer?
2542Have you not a reliable guide in such matters as that?--have you no religion?
2542Have you not been happy here?
2542Have you really the courage to open up that question again?
2542Have you really the courage, then--?
2542He is a widower now, is n''t he?
2542He was rich at that time, then?
2542He wo n''t go away?
2542He?
2542Here?
2542Hide and Seek?
2542His father was a horrible man who committed all sorts of excesses; and that is why his son was sickly from childhood, do you understand?
2542Hm!--suppose I were to tell him?
2542How am I to thank you?
2542How are the children?
2542How can I tell?
2542How can you suppose that he has any knowledge of the sort?
2542How could I help the cat''s going in and tearing everything to pieces?
2542How could you know that?
2542How could you think so?
2542How did you know I had thought of that?
2542How do you do, Nora?
2542How much have you been able to pay off in that way?
2542How much?
2542How should I know--?
2542How should you understand it?
2542How will you be able to prevent it?
2542How?
2542How?
2542Hullo!--are we going to have a banquet?
2542I asked you if it was only a disagreeable scene at home that you were afraid of?
2542I know so little of them?
2542I mean, is n''t he the kind of man that is very anxious to make himself agreeable?
2542I presume you are a widow, Mrs. Linde?
2542I presume you can give me a moment?
2542I suppose there is nothing-- she is not expecting anything?
2542I suppose you have some moral sense?
2542I suppose you mean that he was too partial to asparagus and pate de foie gras, do n''t you?
2542I think I passed you on the stairs when I arrived, Mrs. Linde?
2542I thought your maid said the gentleman who arrived here just as I did, was the doctor?
2542I--?
2542If it has to happen, it is best it should be without a word-- don''t you think so, Torvald?
2542If it were as you say, why did you write to me as you did at the time?
2542If you are well enough?
2542If your little squirrel were to ask you for something very, very prettily--?
2542In the Lottery?
2542In this horrible weather?
2542In what way?
2542Is Doctor Rank a man of means?
2542Is a daughter not to be allowed to spare her dying father anxiety and care?
2542Is a wife not to be allowed to save her husband''s life?
2542Is anything likely to happen?
2542Is he hesitating?
2542Is it about yourself?
2542Is it imprudent to save your husband''s life?
2542Is it my little squirrel bustling about?
2542Is it really you?
2542Is it so long since we met?
2542Is it too late now?
2542Is my little squirrel out of temper?
2542Is n''t it an insult to think that I should be afraid of a starving quill- driver''s vengeance?
2542Is n''t it possible that he was driven to do it by necessity?
2542Is n''t she charming, Mrs. Linde?
2542Is n''t there one thing that strikes you as strange in our sitting here like this?
2542Is that a clear and certain conviction too?
2542Is that a good cure for overwork?
2542Is that it?
2542Is that it?
2542Is that my little lark twittering out there?
2542Is that not so?
2542Is that what it all means?--that you want to save your friend at any cost?
2542Is that what you find so extremely amusing?
2542Is there any justice in that?
2542Is there anything written on them?
2542Is there anything wrong?
2542Is this true, that I read here?
2542Is this yours, this knitting?
2542It all depends on the signature of the name; and that is genuine, I suppose, Mrs. Helmer?
2542It is a discrepancy, is n''t it?
2542It was just about that time that he died, was n''t it?
2542It was your father himself who signed his name here?
2542It will be splendid to have heaps of money and not need to have any anxiety, wo n''t it?
2542It''s delightful to think of, is n''t it?
2542Just arrived in town?
2542Let me ask you a question; why did you not send the paper to your father?
2542Little featherbrain!--are you thinking of the next already?
2542May I come in for a moment?
2542May I make so bold as to ask if it was a Mrs. Linde?
2542May I venture at last to come into my own room again?
2542May I write to you, Nora?
2542Mine, or the children''s?
2542Miserable creature-- what have you done?
2542Must I hide?
2542My goodness, ca n''t you understand that?
2542Narrow- minded?
2542Needle and thread?
2542Nice?--because you do as your husband wishes?
2542Nils, did you really think that?
2542Nils, how would it be if we two shipwrecked people could join forces?
2542No, mother; but will you come and play again?
2542No, that''s it, is n''t it-- you had n''t the courage either?
2542No, what is it?
2542No, you would n''t, would you, Torvald?
2542No; what makes you think that?
2542No?
2542Nor sleepy?
2542Nora!--and you can say that?
2542Nora, Nora, and you would be a party to that sort of thing?
2542Nora, Nora, have n''t you learned sense yet?
2542Nora, what do I hear you saying?
2542Nora, what do you think I have got here?
2542Nora, what is it?
2542Nora-- Mrs. Helmer-- tell me, had you any idea of this?
2542Nora-- can I never be anything more than a stranger to you?
2542Nora-- do you think he is the only one--?
2542Nora-- what is this?--this cold, set face?
2542Nora-- who was that man?
2542Nora-- you surely do n''t mean that request you made to me this morning?
2542Not been nibbling sweets?
2542Not even taken a bite at a macaroon or two?
2542Not gone to bed?
2542Nothing more than that?
2542Now, what do you think of my great secret, Christine?
2542Nurse, I want you to tell me something I have often wondered about-- how could you have the heart to put your own child out among strangers?
2542Of Doctor Rank''s?
2542Oh, how do I know whether I had or whether I had n''t?
2542Oh, what does he want now?
2542Oh, what''s that?
2542Oho!--you do n''t mean to say you are jealous of poor Christine?
2542Only disagreeable?
2542Or perhaps that you have some expedient for raising the money soon?
2542Or-- answer me-- am I to think you have none?
2542Poison my home?
2542Punishment--?
2542Really?
2542Really?
2542Really?
2542Shall I get you anything else?
2542She is a great friend of yours, is n''t she?
2542Shocking?
2542Should?
2542So changed that--?
2542So how could Doctor Rank--?
2542So it has all had to come out of your own necessaries of life, poor Nora?
2542So was n''t I entitled to make a merry evening of it after that?
2542So wo n''t you speak out?
2542So you knit?
2542So you noticed that too?
2542Still, suppose that happened,--what then?
2542Tell me, Doctor Rank, are all the people who are employed in the Bank dependent on Torvald now?
2542Tell me, is it really true that you did not love your husband?
2542Tell me-- do you know all about my past life?
2542Tell me-- what shall we two wear at the next?
2542Telling him everything?
2542That is a very sensible plan, is n''t it?
2542That is so, is n''t it?
2542That too?
2542That''s a lot, is n''t it?
2542The important thing?
2542The most wonderful thing of all--?
2542The only one--?
2542Then I can ask you, without beating about the bush-- is Mrs. Linde to have an appointment in the Bank?
2542Then I suppose you have come to town to amuse yourself with our entertainments?
2542Then it really is n''t he?
2542There is a big black hat-- have you never heard of hats that make you invisible?
2542There is no one else out there, is there?
2542They?
2542To have any talk with a man like that, and give him any sort of promise?
2542To have loved you as much as anyone else does?
2542Today?
2542Torvald, I am sure you will be able to do something for Christine, for my sake, wo n''t you?
2542Torvald, could n''t you take me in hand and decide what I shall go as, and what sort of a dress I shall wear?
2542Torvald-- what was that letter?
2542True?
2542Twenty- four and seven?
2542Under the ice, perhaps?
2542Was he?
2542Was it favourable, then?
2542Was it likely that I would be continually and forever telling you about worries that you could not help me to bear?
2542Was n''t that a happy thought of mine, now?
2542Was that horrid?
2542Was that the dressmaker?
2542Was there anything else to understand except what was obvious to all the world-- a heartless woman jilts a man when a more lucrative chance turns up?
2542We two?
2542Well spent?
2542Well, Mrs. Linde, have you admired her?
2542Well, Torvald dear, have you got rid of him?
2542Well, does that alarm you?
2542Well, have n''t I been paying it off regularly?
2542Well, what is that?
2542Well, what now?
2542Well, why ca n''t you say it?
2542Well, why should one not enjoy a merry evening after a well- spent day?
2542Well?
2542Well?
2542Well?
2542Well?
2542Well?
2542What am I to--?
2542What are all those papers?
2542What are little people called that are always wasting money?
2542What are they?
2542What are we to do with her?
2542What are you doing in there?
2542What are you going to do there?
2542What are you going to do?
2542What are you saying?
2542What are you saying?
2542What are you saying?
2542What can it mean?
2542What did I tell you?
2542What did I tell you?
2542What did he want to speak to Torvald about?
2542What did that Mrs. Linde want here last night?
2542What discrepancy?
2542What do I care about tiresome Society?
2542What do you consider my most sacred duties?
2542What do you mean by serious?
2542What do you mean by that?
2542What do you mean by that?
2542What do you mean by that?
2542What do you mean by that?
2542What do you mean by that?
2542What do you mean, Nora?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you mean?
2542What do you say?
2542What do you say?
2542What do you suppose brought me to town?
2542What do you think of that?
2542What do you want here, then?
2542What do you want of me?
2542What do you want to see my husband about?
2542What do you want, then?
2542What do you want?
2542What doctor?
2542What does this mean?
2542What duties could those be?
2542What good would it be to me if you were out of the way, as you say?
2542What have you found out?
2542What is it that you are waiting for?
2542What is it you want of me?
2542What is it you would so much like to say if Torvald could hear you?
2542What is it?
2542What is it?
2542What is it?
2542What is it?
2542What is that?
2542What is that?
2542What is that?
2542What is that?
2542What is that?
2542What is the matter with you?
2542What is this?
2542What is this?
2542What is this?
2542What is what, dear?
2542What makes you think that?
2542What on earth is that?
2542What ought I to make an end of?
2542What shall we play at?
2542What should make you think I have any influence of that kind with my husband?
2542What sort of an expression is that to use about our marriage?
2542What then?
2542What then?
2542What''s that?
2542What, already?
2542What, macaroons?
2542What, out again?
2542What, when I was going to get such a good place by it?
2542What?
2542What?
2542What?
2542What?
2542Whatever is that?
2542When did my squirrel come home?
2542When you pay off a debt you get your bond back, do n''t you?
2542Where are you going?
2542Where does he live?
2542Where shall I put it, ma''am?
2542Where''s my little skylark?
2542Who else?
2542Who has influence?
2542Who is it?
2542Who is it?
2542Who proposes to take your post away from you?
2542Who was it?
2542Who will form new ties?
2542Who would bother about them?
2542Whom do you mean?
2542Whose lessons?
2542Why are you looking so critical?
2542Why did you marry him?
2542Why did you smile?
2542Why do you laugh at that?
2542Why do you only say-- mother?
2542Why do you pay any heed to that?
2542Why not?
2542Why not?
2542Why not?
2542Why should n''t I look at my dearest treasure?--at all the beauty that is mine, all my very own?
2542Why should n''t I?
2542Why?
2542Why?
2542Will you promise, Torvald dear?
2542With death stalking beside me?--To have to pay this penalty for another man''s sin?
2542Would n''t that be fun?
2542Would you do it?
2542Would you like to try it on--?
2542Would you really make me so happy for once?
2542Yes, Torvald, we may be a wee bit more reckless now, may n''t we?
2542Yes, but how could you be willing to do it?
2542Yes, but what about the people who had lent it?
2542Yes, but what do you suggest as an appropriate costume for that?
2542Yes, but you?
2542Yes, what then?--when I had exposed my wife to shame and disgrace?
2542Yes, why not?
2542Yes, yes-- but how can you suppose--?
2542Yes, you could-- couldn''t you?
2542Yes?
2542You are a nice sort of man, Doctor Rank!--don''t you feel ashamed of yourself, now the lamp has come?
2542You are proud, are n''t you, of having worked so hard and so long for your mother?
2542You do n''t mean that you will tell my husband that I owe you money?
2542You here, so late, Mrs. Linde?
2542You know Torvald left his office when we were married?
2542You mean that I would never have accepted such a sacrifice on your part?
2542You spent a whole year in Italy, did n''t you?
2542You too?
2542You want to speak to me?
2542You won''t-- you wo n''t?
2542You?
2542You?
2542You?
2542You?
2542Your father was very ill, was n''t he?
2542Your husband?
2542Your witness?
2542are you back already?
2542so my obstinate little woman is obliged to get someone to come to her rescue?
2542some slight internal weakness?
2542what are you going to do there?
2542what do you want?
15492Saved?
15492(_ Looks in._) What are you doing in there?
15492(_ Opens the door by degrees._) What is that?
15492(_ Puts his arm round her waist._) That is so, is n''t it?
15492(_ She takes the children into the room on the left, and shuts the door after them._) You want to speak to me?
15492(_ The children all talk at once while she speaks to them._) Have you had great fun?
15492A lie--?
15492A school friend of my wife''s, I presume?
15492A wonderful thing?
15492After what happened?
15492Afterwards?
15492All over!--Nora, shall you never think of me again?
15492All that large sum?
15492All these things?
15492Already?
15492Am I not your husband--?
15492Am I to understand that you can pay the balance that is owing?
15492And I-- how am I fitted to bring up the children?
15492And can you tell me what I have done to forfeit your love?
15492And comes here every day?
15492And did your husband never get to know from your father that the money had not come from him?
15492And died soon afterwards?
15492And do you believe that I did it with a light heart?
15492And do you know what they think of me here?
15492And has no one to provide for?
15492And have had some experience of bookkeeping?
15492And he is standing waiting in the kitchen?
15492And he left you nothing?
15492And if I asked you now for a--?
15492And in spite of that have you the courage to--?
15492And is it absolutely necessary that it should be here?
15492And is it with a clear and certain mind that you forsake your husband and your children?
15492And may I congratulate you on the result?
15492And no children?
15492And oysters too, I suppose?
15492And since then have you never told your secret to your husband?
15492And then you went off to Italy?
15492And to tell me a lie into the bargain?
15492And what if it did?
15492And what is in this parcel?
15492And what other nice things am I to be allowed to see?
15492And when I came to live with you--_ Helmer._ What sort of an expression is that to use about our marriage?
15492And yet--?
15492And you were to appear to do it of your own accord; you were to conceal from me the fact of his having been here; did n''t he beg that of you too?
15492And you?
15492And your husband came back quite well?
15492And your husband keeps the key?
15492Answer me?
15492Are n''t they darlings?
15492Are n''t they lovely?
15492Are n''t you very tired, Torvald?
15492Are the Helmers really at a dance tonight?
15492Are they not your duties to your husband and your children?
15492Are you aware that is a dangerous confession?
15492Are you content now?
15492Are you going too, Christine?
15492Are you mad?
15492Are you out of your senses?
15492Are you really so afraid of it, dear?
15492Are you sure of that?
15492Are you sure of that?
15492Are you trying on your dress?
15492Are you very busy, Torvald?
15492Are you?
15492At the lock?
15492Behind your husband''s back?
15492Besides, what use would it be?
15492Bought, did you say?
15492But ca n''t we live here like brother and sister--?
15492But ca n''t you tell us what you will be?
15492But deeds you must believe in?
15492But did it never occur to you that you were committing a fraud on me?
15492But did n''t you tell him no one was in?
15492But do n''t you think it is nice of me, too, to do as you wish?
15492But do you suppose you are any the less dear to me, because you do n''t understand how to act on your own responsibility?
15492But do you think it would--?
15492But how can this well- bred man be so tactless?
15492But it did n''t bite you?
15492But it was often very hard on me, Christine-- because it is delightful to be really well dressed, is n''t it?
15492But matters of business-- such business as you and I have had together-- do you think I do n''t understand that?
15492But now tell me, you extravagant little person, what would you like for yourself?
15492But now that you know it, are you not going to give it up to me?
15492But perhaps I had better go-- forever?
15492But some day, Nora-- some day?
15492But tell me this-- is he perfectly sincere?
15492But tell me, is Doctor Rank always as depressed as he was yesterday?
15492But what do you refer to?
15492But what is it?
15492But what is this?
15492But what then?
15492But what would my assurances have been worth against yours?
15492But where did you get it from, then?
15492But, Christine, is that possible?
15492But, Nora, how could you possibly do it?
15492But, Nora, would it not be possible to fill it up?
15492But, bah!--once in a way-- That''s so, is n''t it, Doctor Rank?
15492But, do you know, it strikes me that you are looking rather-- what shall I say-- rather uneasy today?
15492But, my dear Nora-- who could the man be?
15492But, my dearest Nora, how do you know anything about such things?
15492But, tell me, was it really something very bad that this Krogstad was guilty of?
15492But-- the doctor?
15492But-- to come back to the matter in hand-- that must have been a very trying time for you, Mrs. Helmer?
15492By us two-- by us two, who have loved you better than anyone else in in the world?
15492Can he--?
15492Can he--?
15492Can the worst--?
15492Can we two have anything to talk about?
15492Can you explain it to me?
15492Can you not understand your place in your own home?
15492Can you suppose I should ever think of such a thing as repudiating you, or even reproaching you?
15492Certainly-- why not?
15492Certainty?
15492Christine, are you saying this deliberately?
15492Christine--?
15492Come, come, what is this?
15492Could n''t I?
15492Could you really do it?
15492Deprave my little children?
15492Did a big dog run after you?
15492Did he go straight into my room?
15492Did he?
15492Did he?
15492Did n''t I tell you so?
15492Did n''t you say so yourself a little while ago-- that you dare not trust me to bring them up?
15492Did n''t you tell me no one had been here?
15492Did n''t you?
15492Did you hear--?
15492Did you know--?
15492Did you notice what good spirits Rank was in this evening?
15492Did you remember to invite Doctor Rank?
15492Did you win a prize in the Lottery?
15492Did you?
15492Do I look as if I were?
15492Do I need to tell you that?
15492Do I?
15492Do n''t you think they will fit me?
15492Do n''t you?
15492Do they ask much for me?
15492Do you believe I am as absolutely heartless as all that?
15492Do you believe that?
15492Do you hear me, Torvald?
15492Do you hear them up there?
15492Do you hear?
15492Do you know anything about it?
15492Do you know the man?
15492Do you know we have just had a great piece of good luck?
15492Do you know what is in this letter?
15492Do you know, you ought to embroider?
15492Do you mean never to tell him about it?
15492Do you mean that you gave me a thought?
15492Do you mean that you will--?
15492Do you mind going in to the children for the present?
15492Do you realise what a horribly painful position that would be?
15492Do you remember last Christmas?
15492Do you remember that?
15492Do you see that letter?
15492Do you see?
15492Do you still think I am of no use?
15492Do you suppose I did n''t try, first of all, to get what I wanted as if it were for myself?
15492Do you think I am narrow- minded?
15492Do you think I do n''t know what a lot is wanted for housekeeping at Christmas- time?
15492Do you think I was going to let her remain there after that, and spoil the effect?
15492Do you think so?
15492Do you think they would forget their mother if she went away altogether?
15492Do you understand now what it is you have done for me?
15492Do you understand what you have done?
15492Do you understand what you have done?
15492Doctor Rank, what do you say to a macaroon?
15492Doctor Rank-- are you fond of fancy- dress balls?
15492Does Doctor Rank come here every day?
15492Does it not occur to you that this is the first time we two, you and I, husband and wife, have had a serious conversation?
15492Does my little Nora acknowledge that at last?
15492Does n''t she look remarkably pretty?
15492Does your husband love you so little, then?
15492Down into the cold, coal- black water?
15492For myself?
15492For what?
15492Good gracious, ca n''t you understand?
15492Good heavens!--went away altogether?
15492Has anyone been here?
15492Has he said anything to you?
15492Has my little spendthrift been wasting money again?
15492Has n''t Miss Sweet- Tooth been breaking rules in town today?
15492Has n''t she paid a visit to the confectioner''s?
15492Have n''t I your confidence?
15492Have n''t you been a little bit imprudent?
15492Have n''t you?
15492Have you and your husband thought of mine?
15492Have you any idea what that means?
15492Have you any notion what Society really is?
15492Have you been practising too much?
15492Have you been sitting here waiting for me?
15492Have you been snow- balling?
15492Have you changed your things?
15492Have you ever noticed anything of the sort in me?
15492Have you forgot that it is I who have the keeping of your reputation?
15492Have you no knowledge of such laws-- you who are a lawyer?
15492Have you not a reliable guide in such matters as that?--have you no religion?
15492Have you not been happy here?
15492Have you really the courage to open up that question again?
15492Have you really the courage, then--?
15492He is a widower now, is n''t he?
15492He was rich at that time, then?
15492He wo n''t go away?
15492He?
15492Here?
15492Hide and Seek?
15492His father was a horrible man who committed all sorts of excesses; and that is why his son was sickly from childhood, do you understand?
15492Hm!--suppose I were to tell him?
15492How am I to thank you?
15492How are the children?
15492How can I tell?
15492How can you suppose that he has any knowledge of the sort?
15492How could I help the cat''s going in and tearing everything to pieces?
15492How could you know that?
15492How could you think so?
15492How did you know I had thought of_ that?__ Krogstad_.
15492How do you do, Nora?
15492How much have you been able to pay off in that way?
15492How much?
15492How should I know--?
15492How should you understand it?
15492How will you be able to prevent it?
15492How?
15492How?
15492Hullo!--are we going to have a banquet?
15492I asked you if it was only a disagreeable scene at home that you were afraid of?
15492I know so little of them?
15492I mean, is n''t he the kind of a man that is very anxious to make himself agreeable?
15492I presume you are a widow, Mrs. Linde?
15492I presume you can give me a moment?
15492I suppose there is nothing-- she is not expecting anything?
15492I suppose you have some moral sense?
15492I suppose you mean that he was too partial to asparagus and pate de foie gras, do n''t you?
15492I think I passed you on the stairs when I arrived, Mrs. Linde?
15492I thought your maid said the gentleman who arrived here just as I did, was the doctor?
15492I--?
15492If it were as you say, why did you write to me as you did at the time?
15492If you are well enough?
15492If your little squirrel were to ask you for something very, very prettily--?
15492In the Lottery?
15492In this horrible weather?
15492In what way?
15492Is Doctor Rank a man of means?
15492Is a daughter not to be allowed to spare her dying father anxiety and care?
15492Is a wife not to be allowed to save her husband''s life?
15492Is anything likely to happen?
15492Is he hesitating?
15492Is it about yourself?
15492Is it imprudent to save your husband''s life?
15492Is it my little squirrel bustling about?
15492Is it really you?
15492Is it so long since we met?
15492Is it too late now?
15492Is my little squirrel out of temper?
15492Is n''t it an insult to think that I should be afraid of a starving quill- driver''s vengeance?
15492Is n''t it possible that he was driven to do it by necessity?
15492Is n''t she charming, Mrs. Linde?
15492Is n''t there one thing that strikes you as strange in our sitting here like this?
15492Is that a clear and certain conviction too?
15492Is that a good cure for overwork?
15492Is that it?
15492Is that it?
15492Is that my little lark twittering out there?
15492Is that not so?
15492Is that what it all means?--that you want to save your friend at any cost?
15492Is that what you find so extremely amusing?
15492Is there any justice in that?
15492Is there anything wrong?
15492Is this true, that I read here?
15492Is this yours, this knitting?
15492It all depends on the signature of the name; and_ that_ is genuine, I suppose, Mrs. Helmer?
15492It is a discrepancy, is n''t it?
15492It was just about that time that he died, was n''t it?
15492It was your father himself who signed his name here?
15492It will be splendid to have heaps of money and not need to have any anxiety, wo n''t it?
15492It''s delightful to think of, is n''t it?
15492Just arrived in town?
15492Let me ask you a question; why did you not send the paper to your father?
15492Little featherbrain!--are you thinking of the next already?
15492May I come in for a moment?
15492May I make so bold as to ask if it was a Mrs. Linde?
15492May I venture at last to come into my own room again?
15492May I write to you, Nora?
15492Mine, or the children''s?
15492Must I hide?
15492My goodness, ca n''t you understand that?
15492Narrow- minded?
15492Needle and thread?
15492Nice?--because you do as your husband wishes?
15492Nils, did you really think that?
15492Nils, how would it be if we two shipwrecked people could join forces?
15492No you would n''t, would you, Torvald?
15492No, mother; but will you come and play again?
15492No, that''s it, is n''t it-- you had n''t the courage either?
15492No, what is it?
15492No; what makes you think that?
15492No?
15492Nor sleepy?
15492Nora!--and you can say that?
15492Nora, Nora, and you would be a party to that sort of thing?
15492Nora, Nora, have n''t you learnt sense yet?
15492Nora, what do you think I have got here?
15492Nora, what is it?
15492Nora-- Mrs. Helmer-- tell me, had you any idea of this?
15492Nora-- can I never be anything more than a stranger to you?
15492Nora-- do you think he is the only one--?
15492Nora-- who was that man?
15492Nora-- you surely do n''t mean that request you made of me this morning?
15492Not been nibbling sweets?
15492Not even taken a bite at a macaroon or two?
15492Not gone to bed?
15492Nothing at all, then?
15492Nothing more than that?
15492Now, what do you think of my great secret, Christine?
15492Nurse, I want you to tell me something I have often wondered about-- how could you have the heart to put your own child out among strangers?
15492Oh, what does he want now?
15492Oh, what''s that?
15492Oho!--you do n''t mean to say you are jealous of poor Christine?
15492Only disagreeable?
15492Or perhaps that you have some expedient for raising the money soon?
15492Or-- answer me-- am I to think you have none?
15492Poison my home?
15492Punishment--?
15492Really?
15492Really?
15492Really?
15492Shall I get you anything else?
15492She is a great friend of yours, is n''t she?
15492Shocking?
15492Should?
15492So changed that--?
15492So how could Doctor Rank--?
15492So it has all had to come out of your own necessaries of life, poor Nora?
15492So was n''t I entitled to make a merry evening of it after that?
15492So wo n''t you speak out?
15492So you knit?
15492So you noticed that too?
15492Still, suppose that happened,--what then?
15492Tell me, Doctor Rank, are all the people who are employed in the Bank dependent on Torvald now?
15492Tell me, is it really true that you did not love your husband?
15492Tell me-- do you know all about my past life?
15492Tell me-- what shall we two wear at the next?
15492Tell me?
15492Telling him everything?
15492That is a very sensible plan, is n''t it?
15492That too?
15492That''s a lot, is n''t it?
15492The important thing?
15492The most wonderful thing of all--?
15492The only one--?
15492Then I can ask you, without beating about the bush-- is Mrs. Linde to have an appointment in the Bank?
15492Then I suppose you have come to town to amuse yourself with our entertainments?
15492Then it really is n''t he?
15492There is a big black hat-- have you never heard of hats that make you invisible?
15492There is no one else out there, is there?
15492They?
15492To have any talk with a man like that, and give him any sort of promise?
15492To have loved you as much as anyone else does?
15492Today?
15492Torvald, could n''t you take me in hand and decide what I shall go as, and what sort of a dress I shall wear?
15492Torvald-- what was that letter?
15492True?
15492Twenty- four and seven?
15492Under the ice, perhaps?
15492Wait a minute?
15492Was he?
15492Was n''t that a happy thought of mine, now?
15492Was that horrid?
15492Was that the dressmaker?
15492We two?
15492Well spent?
15492Well, Mrs. Linde, have you admired her?
15492Well, Torvald dear, have you got rid of him?
15492Well, does that alarm you?
15492Well, have n''t I been paying it off regularly?
15492Well, what is that?
15492Well, what now?
15492Well, why ca n''t you say it?
15492Well, why should one not enjoy a merry evening after a well- spent day?
15492Well?
15492Well?
15492Well?
15492Well?
15492Well?
15492What am I to--?
15492What are all those papers?
15492What are little people called that are always wasting money?
15492What are they?
15492What are we to do with her?
15492What are you going to do there?
15492What are you going to do?
15492What are you saying?
15492What are you saying?
15492What are you saying?
15492What can it mean?
15492What did I tell you?
15492What did I tell you?
15492What did he want to speak to Torvald about?
15492What did that Mrs. Linde want here last night?
15492What discrepancy?
15492What do I care about tiresome Society?
15492What do you consider my most sacred duties?
15492What do you mean by that?
15492What do you mean by that?
15492What do you mean by that?
15492What do you mean by that?
15492What do you mean, Nora?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you mean?
15492What do you say?
15492What do you say?
15492What do you suppose brought me to town?
15492What do you think of that?
15492What do you want here, then?
15492What do you want of me?
15492What do you want to see my husband about?
15492What do you want, then?
15492What do you want?
15492What do you want?
15492What doctor?
15492What does this mean?
15492What duties could those be?
15492What good would it be to me if you were out of the way, as you say?
15492What have you found out?
15492What is it that you are waiting for?
15492What is it you want of me?
15492What is it you would so much like to say if Torvald could hear you?
15492What is it?
15492What is it?
15492What is it?
15492What is it?
15492What is that?
15492What is that?
15492What is that?
15492What is the matter with you?
15492What is this?
15492What is this?
15492What is what, dear?
15492What makes you think that?
15492What on earth is that?
15492What ought I to make an end of?
15492What shall we play at?
15492What should make you think I have any influence of that kind with my husband?
15492What then?
15492What then?
15492What''s that?
15492What, already?
15492What, macaroons?
15492What, out again?
15492What, when I was going to get such a good place by it?
15492What?
15492What?
15492What?
15492Whatever is that?
15492When did my squirrel come home?
15492When you pay off a debt you get your bond back, do n''t you?
15492Where are you going?
15492Where does he live?
15492Where shall I put it, ma''am?
15492Where''s my little skylark?
15492Who else?
15492Who has influence?
15492Who is it?
15492Who is it?
15492Who proposes to take your post away from you?
15492Who was it?
15492Who will form new ties?
15492Who would bother about them?
15492Whom do you mean?
15492Whose lessons?
15492Why are you looking so critical?
15492Why did you marry him?
15492Why did you smile?
15492Why do you laugh at that?
15492Why do you only say-- mother?
15492Why do you pay any heed to that?
15492Why not?
15492Why not?
15492Why not?
15492Why should n''t I look at my dearest treasure?--at all the beauty that is mine, all my very own?
15492Why should n''t I?
15492Why?
15492Why?
15492Will you promise, Torvald dear?
15492Would n''t that be fun?
15492Would you do it?
15492Would you like to try it on--?
15492Would you really make me so happy for once?
15492Yes, Torvald, we may be a wee bit more reckless now, may n''t we?
15492Yes, but how could you be willing to do it?
15492Yes, but what about the people who had lent it?
15492Yes, but what do you suggest as an appropriate costume for that?
15492Yes, but you?
15492Yes, what then?--when I had exposed my wife to shame and disgrace?
15492Yes, why not?
15492Yes, yes-- but how can you suppose--?
15492Yes, you could-- couldn''t you?
15492Yes?
15492You are a nice sort of man, Doctor Rank!--don''t you feel ashamed of yourself, now the lamp has come?
15492You are proud, are n''t you, of having- worked so hard and so long for your mother?
15492You do n''t mean that you will tell my husband that I owe you money?
15492You here, so late, Mrs. Linde?
15492You know Torvald left his office when we were married?
15492You mean that I would never have accepted such a sacrifice on your part?
15492You spent a whole year in Italy, did n''t you?
15492You too?
15492You won''t-- you wo n''t?
15492You?
15492You?
15492You?
15492You?
15492Your father was very ill, was n''t he?
15492Your husband?
15492_ Helmer._ But, dearest Nora, would it have been any good to you?
15492_ Helmer._ Miserable creature-- what have you done?
15492_ Helmer._ Nora, what do I hear you saying?
15492_ Helmer._ Nora-- what is this?--this cold, set face?
15492_ Helmer._ Was it likely that I would be continually and forever telling you about worries that you could not help me to bear?
15492_ Helmer._ What do you mean by serious?
15492_ Helmer._ What do you mean by that?
15492_ Helmer._ What is that?
15492_ Helmer._ What?
15492_ Krogstad._ But, tell me, was n''t it for that very purpose that you asked me to meet you here?
15492_ Nora._ Ah!--_ Helmer._ What is this?
15492_ Nora._ And I?
15492_ Nora._ Are you going to work to- night?
15492_ Nora._ If it has to happen, it is best it should be without a word-- don''t you think so, Torvald?
15492_ Nora._ Is there anything written on them?
15492_ Nora._ Of Doctor Rank''s?
15492_ Nora._ What do you mean?
15492are you back already?
15492so my obstinate little woman is obliged to get someone to come to her rescue?
15492some slight internal weakness?
15492what are you going to do there?
15492what do you want?
26316Ai n''t you coming in?
26316Ai n''t you dressed yet?
26316Ai n''t you gwineter git''i m away, Marster?
26316Almost as beautiful as your mother, and she grows lovelier every day that she lives, does n''t she?
26316Am I all right, mother? 26316 Am I all right?"
26316An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth-- that''s the law of God, ai n''t it?
26316And I am to go with you, am I not? 26316 And I''ll have enough clothes to last me for years, sha n''t I, mother?"
26316And does Oliver feel that, too?
26316And leave the children, Jinny?
26316And may I stop learning my letters?
26316And the other one,''The Home''--when is the first night of that?
26316And what about Harry? 26316 And why ca n''t he say it and have it over?"
26316And you declined absolutely?
26316And you know already just what you are going to do? 26316 And you love Oliver, do n''t you, mother?"
26316And you really mean that you ca n''t get rid of her? 26316 And you''ll let her go to college?"
26316And you''ll promise not to go away until I''m fast asleep?--you''ll promise, mamma?
26316And you''ll write to me once a week, Harry?
26316Any chance of a breeze springing up?
26316Are n''t you coming, Virginia?
26316Are n''t you going to have something too?
26316Are n''t you going, Virginia?
26316Are n''t you nearly through, mother?
26316Are the children well?
26316Are there any plain ones? 26316 Are you all right?"
26316Are you busy with your sermon, dear?
26316Are you going back to New York soon, father?
26316Are you going there?
26316Are you going to her garden party on Wednesday?
26316Are you going to take any medicine?
26316Are you obliged to go to New York next week, Oliver?
26316Are you ready?
26316Are you sure it is n''t poetry?
26316Are you sure you would n''t rather I''d go to market, Lucy?
26316Are you sure your coat is warm enough, dear?
26316As long as that-- for a year?
26316Beastly cold, is n''t it?
26316But I could n''t help that, could I?
26316But I have to be up with Harry when he is ill. How in the world could I help it?
26316But I suppose Susan has brought you your supper?
26316But are n''t you tired, mother? 26316 But at my time of life, dear?
26316But do n''t you think you might try to see things a little more rationally? 26316 But do n''t you want to fill your card?
26316But how can he possibly feel as strongly about a wrong conviction as we do about a right one?
26316But how can you tell whether the fright makes him sick or sickness brings on the fright? 26316 But how will you live, Oliver?"
26316But if she goes, will you be able to send Harry?
26316But not serious, doctor? 26316 But there''s Miss Willy-- what has she ever got out of life?"
26316But what about Henry''s son? 26316 But what are we to do with Oliver?"
26316But what could possibly happen? 26316 But what do you do besides-- what do you do, I mean, for a living?"
26316But what does he say?
26316But what else could they do, Jenny? 26316 But what in the world are you going to do?
26316But what is the matter, dear? 26316 But what on earth can they say, mother?
26316But what would James say about it?
26316But where is he going? 26316 But why ca n''t I have a cake without a birthday, mamma?"
26316But you do n''t mean that you are going for good?--that you''ll never come back to see Susan and me again?
26316But you saw her off the stage, did n''t you?
26316But you will not do it, darling? 26316 But you''ll let me come back?
26316But, Jinny, how can you? 26316 But, Jinny, the children?"
26316But, Lucy, my child, are you doing right to submit to impertinence? 26316 But, was I ever in danger?
26316Ca n''t I have another birthday soon, mamma?
26316Ca n''t they rehearse''The Beaten Road''just as well without you?
26316Ca n''t you go to England to see him in the summer?
26316Ca n''t you make him careful, Susan?
26316Ca n''t you see for yourself that he''s perfectly well?
26316Cheapened himself?
26316Convictions about what?
26316Could n''t you find room enough without them?
26316Could you find room for my blue flannel bath robe? 26316 Did I?
26316Did he mention Harry''s birthday?
26316Did he say anything about his work? 26316 Did she seem at all feverish?"
26316Did you see Oliver when you came in?
26316Did you think I came just for the rose?
26316Do I? 26316 Do n''t I always come when you send for me?"
26316Do n''t you see? 26316 Do n''t you think we might get some of these things out of the way?"
26316Do n''t you think you might get them to bed earlier? 26316 Do n''t you want to fix your hair over?"
26316Do n''t you want your poor mother to have some supper, Harry?
26316Do they really like it? 26316 Do you come here every day?"
26316Do you honestly mean to imply that I could break her heart if I tried to?
26316Do you mean going to college?
26316Do you really think it''s too late to stop it?
26316Do you remember that we used to call him an incurable Don Quixote?
26316Do you think any good will come of your going?
26316Do you think he wants to do that?
26316Do you think he''ll be able to swallow any of it?
26316Do you think that the new play is as good as''Pretty Fanny''?
26316Do you think you could ever care for me, Susan?
26316Do you want anything, mother darling? 26316 Do you want to be there to welcome Jinny?"
26316Do you want to put anything else in this trunk before I lock it, Lucy?
26316Do you wish to stay here to- night?
26316Do you work on Sunday?
26316Do-- do you want her so much?
26316Does Abby bounce?
26316Does Miss Oldcastle take the leading part?
26316Does anything hurt you, Harry?
26316Does n''t mother look sweet?
26316Everything is finished but this, is n''t it, Miss Willy?
26316For Harry''s sake? 26316 Four is n''t big, is it?"
26316Geniuses are always different from other people, are n''t they?
26316Getting along pretty well, then?
26316Had I a right to risk my life when the children are so young that they need me every minute? 26316 Had it?
26316Had n''t you suspected it before?
26316Harry will never be just four years old again, will you, little man?
26316Has anything happened?
26316Has it got into the papers?
26316Has she changed much? 26316 Have you any idea what it means?
26316Have you been to market, dear? 26316 Have you done anything about Jones''s place in the bank?"
26316Have you had anything to eat?
26316Have you heard from them recently?
26316Have you seen any of the accounts of Oliver''s play, Jinny?
26316Have you seen dear Miss Priscilla?
26316He could n''t bear to hurt poor mamma, could he?
26316He does look well, but I''d hardly call him fat, would you?
26316He is better, doctor, is n''t he? 26316 He was in earnest, then, about wanting you to give up writing?"
26316Heard from George lately?
26316How can I help it? 26316 How did you know?"
26316How do I look, father? 26316 How do you think he looks, Marthy?
26316How on earth am I to get back again?
26316How on earth are you going to fall in love and marry, if you have n''t any money to keep a wife? 26316 How on earth could he get on with Uncle Cyrus?"
26316How on earth could she go out sewing by the day if she did n''t have her religious convictions?
26316How would you like to give him something to do on the road? 26316 I am going to him now-- at once-- when does the train leave, mother?"
26316I came up to ask if you would n''t eat something, dear?
26316I hope you brought something beautiful to wear to- morrow, Jenny?
26316I knew you were here,she answered,"because John Henry Pendleton"( was it his imagination or did the faintest blush tinge her face?)
26316I shall see you soon?
26316I suppose you read all about it in the papers?
26316I suppose you will never tell me why you did that?
26316I was beautiful, too, but how did it help me?
26316I wonder if Lucy has anything else she wants to go into this trunk? 26316 I wonder if he sees how absurd and unnecessary all the things are that he does day after day, year after year, like the rest of us?
26316I wonder if it is really that? 26316 I wonder if it is true that he has n''t made his money honestly?"
26316I wonder if she can be getting to know things?
26316I wonder if you would mind going on to Bolingbroke Street, so I may speak to Belinda Treadwell a minute?
26316I wonder what has brought him here?
26316I wonder what he thinks about it all?
26316I wonder what makes Harry so afraid of the dark?
26316I wonder what''s the matter?
26316I wonder why he keeps his mouth shut so tight when he is alone?
26316I wonder why in the world mother does n''t hold up her skirt?
26316I wonder?
26316I''d have known him anywhere from Susan''s description,she thought, and added suspiciously,"I wonder why he peered so long around that corner?
26316I''d love to do it, darling-- but you''ve never spent a night away from one of them since Lucy was born, have you?
26316I''m a little too thin for a princess gown, do n''t you think? 26316 I''m jolly glad, but what will you do about the children?"
26316If he has given up the old spiritual standards, what has he in place of them?
26316If you mean come to your way of looking at things-- then I have n''t,replied Oliver, and added in a more courteous tone,"Wo n''t you sit down?"
26316Is Aunt Belinda just the same?
26316Is dat you, Marse Gabriel? 26316 Is he obliged to stay that long?"
26316Is he really trying to unsettle Miss Willy''s mind?
26316Is it any better, dear?
26316Is n''t it beautiful that her marriage has turned out so well?
26316Is n''t it too dark for you to go alone? 26316 Is n''t she going?"
26316Is she Abby''s mother?
26316Is she coming back? 26316 Is she dark or fair?"
26316Is she in her room, and who is with her?
26316Is that right, mother? 26316 Is that you, Susan?"
26316Is your neuralgia better, Virginia?
26316Is-- is it true that Oliver has left you? 26316 It has n''t changed much, I suppose?"
26316It is n''t the black man now, darling, is it? 26316 It is so hard to keep them nice,"she said; but her heart cried,"What do my hands matter when it is for your sake that I have spoiled them?"
26316It looks nice on me, does n''t it?
26316It seems a pity for you to go to any expense about shelves, does n''t it?
26316It''s a jolly view of the town, is n''t it?
26316It''s natural, is n''t it?
26316Jenny ought to have been here,he said, and asked suddenly, as if it were a relief to him to change the subject:"Have you had news of Harry?"
26316Jinny, if I come by for you to- morrow, will you go with me to a board meeting or two? 26316 Less serious?
26316Looks as if we were in for a scorching summer, does n''t it?
26316Love is the only thing that really matters, is n''t it, mother?
26316Love? 26316 May I stay away from school while you''re away, mamma?"
26316May we come back soon, mamma?
26316Mother, have you the change to pay the driver?
26316My pet, what is the matter?
26316Now there''s Abby Goode-- Susan, what do you honestly think of Abby?
26316Of course I''ll help you-- but, oh, Oliver, what in the world are you going to do?
26316Of course you do, do n''t you, Oliver?
26316Oh, Jinny, where have you been hiding? 26316 Oh, Oliver, how can you, when all the papers spoke so admiringly of it?"
26316Oh, mother, we thought you''d gone away never to come back,sobbed Lucy, throwing herself into her arms,"and what would little Jenny have done?"
26316Oliver?
26316Ought I to have gone on the hunt yesterday?
26316Poor fellow, it''s dreadfully hard on him, is n''t it?
26316Poor little fellow, he fell on a pile of bricks,she added,"but he''s such a hero he never even whimpered, did he, darling?"
26316Saint James''Church is only a few minutes''walk from here; but I suppose you are a Presbyterian, like your uncle?
26316Serious?
26316Shall I fix some bread and preserves for them?
26316Shall I get you something for it?
26316She knows I never liked Craven,he said,"but after all what are we going to do about it?
26316So Lucy is going to marry that old rotter, is she?
26316So you ai n''t hungry yet?
26316So you''ll go on just the same and wait until they''re ready for you?
26316Stand what?
26316Take your mother away?
26316That''s Treadwell over there-- a good- looking man, is n''t he?--but have you seen the dowdy, middle- aged woman he is married to? 26316 That''s the daughter of old Gabriel, ai nt it?"
26316That''s the only sensible way to take it, is n''t it, Oliver?
26316The old law, yes-- but why not quote the law of Christ instead?
26316Then it-- it is not all a dream?
26316Then why does n''t he go about it in a proper way, if he is n''t ashamed of it?
26316Then you are going?
26316Then you''ll marry me? 26316 There was enough chicken salad and ice cream left for supper, was n''t there, Wotan?"
26316They expect to take it off at once, and-- and Oliver is not well-- he is ill in the hotel----"Ill?
26316They''ve come home for a snack, I suppose?
26316Try to pay some calls every afternoon, wo n''t you, dear?
26316Views? 26316 Virginia, are n''t you going to Atlantic City with us to- morrow?"
26316Virginia,he said suddenly,"you''ve set your heart on going to- morrow, have n''t you?"
26316W- what''s He done for me?
26316Was it because of him, then?
26316We wo n''t waste any more time, will we, Susan?
26316We''ll do everything that we can, of course,and she added timidly,"Have you money enough?"
26316Well, I wonder what his ideal is?
26316Well, if he is in love, as you say, whom is he in love with?
26316Well, she does n''t expect me to interfere, does she?
26316Well, those days are over, and you say it''s business that you''ve come about?
26316What are those you''re putting on the mantelpiece? 26316 What are you afraid of?
26316What arrangements would you make about your mother? 26316 What do you mean?
26316What good would it do,she asked,"to hold him to me when he wishes to be free?"
26316What in thunder has he got to say to me?
26316What in thunder, Virginia?
26316What is it, mother? 26316 What is it, my lamb?
26316What is the use?
26316What kind of feeling, mother? 26316 What on earth can it matter to him?"
26316What things?
26316What were you saying, Oliver?
26316What? 26316 Whatever happens, Virginia, will you believe that I never wanted to hurt you?"
26316When will Oliver''s play be put on in New York?
26316When would you want to start?
26316When you married father? 26316 Where does it hurt you, darling?
26316Where have you been all this time? 26316 Where in the world have you been, Virginia?"
26316Where is Harry?
26316Who''d have thought she''d get them here so soon?
26316Why ca n''t I go, mother?
26316Why ca n''t I take the message for you, Aunt Lucy? 26316 Why ca n''t we have cake like that, mamma?"
26316Why could n''t you come too, Jinny?
26316Why did he shoot a policeman? 26316 Why did n''t you make me see it?"
26316Why did n''t you telegraph me?
26316Why do n''t you buy a dress there, Virginia? 26316 Why do n''t you go to James?
26316Why in heaven''s name, should you worry about me? 26316 Why not?"
26316Why on earth do n''t you get rid of some of them?
26316Why should n''t they? 26316 Why should they when they give such splendid shade?
26316Why, mother, what in the world is the matter?
26316Why, mother, what on earth has happened?
26316Why, of course, but wo n''t you let me fetch it?
26316Why, what in the world does she see in John Henry?
26316Why, what in the world possessed them?
26316Why, what is it, Jinny?
26316Why, where on earth would you take her?
26316Will Virginia Pendleton be at the party?
26316Will you bind up his foot with some arnica?
26316Will you come into the summer- house and sit out this dance?
26316Will you engage my berth back to Dinwiddie for to- night?
26316Will you open your mouth wide, then, and let mamma mop your throat with turpentine?
26316Will you sit by me and tell me a story?
26316Will you stay here all night?
26316Wo n''t you let me do even that?
26316Wo n''t you take a little something to eat before you go?
26316Would n''t it be possible, my dear?
26316Would n''t you like me to do that, dear?
26316Would n''t you like to wear my furs? 26316 Would you ever have believed she was as pretty as that?"
26316You are coming up to welcome Jinny, are n''t you, Susan?
26316You are very comfortable now, ai n''t you? 26316 You ca n''t help me straighten up, I suppose?
26316You came the year our son Henry died, did n''t you? 26316 You do n''t mean the son of your uncle Henry, who went out to Australia?
26316You do n''t mean to tell me you brought all those books with you, Oliver?
26316You do n''t think he is seriously sick, do you, doctor? 26316 You have a good view of the low- grounds, Aunt Mehitable,"he said aloud, and added immediately,"What''s that noise in the road?
26316You have n''t changed your mind since you last spoke to me, eh?
26316You have n''t forgotten Henry?
26316You mean it''s different from your others? 26316 You mean that something must happen-- that there will be a break between us?"
26316You mean that you''ll still give me the job if I stop writing plays?
26316You mean you think she may have changed? 26316 You mean you''ve decided not to do what father asks no matter what happens?"
26316You wo n''t object to my putting shelves around the walls?
26316You''d forgotten it? 26316 You''ll go down in a carriage, wo n''t you?"
26316You''ll keep it up now, wo n''t you?
26316You''ll never, never cheapen yourself, Oliver?
26316You''re not thinking about getting married, then, I reckon?
26316You''ve taken that little house in Prince Street for them, where old Miss Franklin used to live, have n''t you? 26316 Your cousin is downstairs, but I did n''t know whether you wanted me to bring her up here or not?"
26316A clerk?
26316A dull wonder stirred in her mind amid her suffering-- a vague questioning as to why this thing, of all things, should have happened?
26316A man who wo n''t starve for his ambition is n''t worth his salt, is he?
26316A travelling salesman?
26316Above all, why did love and sacrifice so often work their own punishment?
26316After all, it could n''t be so very bad, could it?
26316All alone?
26316Am I not what you have made me?
26316Am I pretty?"
26316And now what about Lucy?
26316And suppose God had not stopped her in time-- suppose she had gone to Atlantic City as Oliver had begged her to do?
26316And what becomes of them?"
26316And what had she done with him?
26316And what has become of him?
26316And yet why did this face, which had in it none of the charms of the seductress, disturb her so profoundly?
26316And you''ve been abroad?
26316And, what do you think?
26316Are n''t two nights almost forever?"
26316Are you better to- day?"
26316Are you going to see Jinny this evening?"
26316Are you going to the theatre?"
26316Are you ready?"
26316Are you the same old dear I left behind me?"
26316Are you tired waiting?"
26316As Virginia drifted off in John Henry''s arms for the first dance, which she had promised him, she thought:"I wonder if he will not come after all?"
26316As a man he may not have been impressive, but as a defeating force who could say that he had not attained his fulfilment?
26316Ask grandpa to pray that he will be well soon, wo n''t you?"
26316Been about too much in the sun?"
26316Besides, it is so important to keep regular hours with her, is n''t it?
26316Bessie is just six, is n''t she?"
26316Better men have done worse things, have n''t they?
26316Burden, had n''t I?"
26316But how can I when I''ve worn the same things ever since my marriage, besides making the baby''s clothes out of my old ones?
26316But only women are like that?
26316But surely you do n''t think it is right to make your children afraid of you?"
26316But why ca n''t you and Susan come in and sit a while?"
26316But,"she looked at him a little doubtfully,"do n''t you think he will get over it?"
26316By the way, Virginia, why did you never tell me what a good rider you are?
26316By the way, could you have a bushel of cornmeal sent to me from Dinwiddie?
26316By the way, why ca n''t you run on with me for the first night, Virginia?
26316Ca n''t you come upstairs to the nursery with us, mother?"
26316Ca n''t you find an interest?
26316Ca n''t you make her go to bed, father?"
26316Ca n''t you tell me?"
26316Can it be true that she already loves me?"
26316Can you take the children out this afternoon so Marthy can help me?"
26316Can you understand how a person can both admire and disapprove of a thing?
26316Could it all have been a dream?
26316Could n''t they go on just as well without him?"
26316Could n''t we send some one-- John Henry would go, I know-- in your place?"
26316Could n''t you possibly take an interest in some charity?"
26316Could there be a deeper pathos, after all, than simply being funny?
26316Did he say when he was going to take you back with him?"
26316Did he tell you?"
26316Did n''t you realize that Nature intended you to do it?"
26316Did she already love him?
26316Did the future hold this for Virginia also?
26316Did you ever see an absolutely happy man before?
26316Do n''t you ever get tired?"
26316Do n''t you feel well?
26316Do n''t you know me?"
26316Do n''t you know that she would n''t stay away from her precious boy?"
26316Do n''t you know that you are guilty of an immoral act when you work overtime?"
26316Do n''t you notice that he struggles less when he breathes?"
26316Do n''t you remember the time when you used to be afraid of things?"
26316Do n''t you remember the time you woke me in the night and sent me after Doctor Fraser because Jenny had a bad attack of the hiccoughs?"
26316Do n''t you think Marthy might feed him upstairs again?"
26316Do n''t you think she is the living image of our Saint Memin portrait of great- grandmamma?"
26316Do n''t you think that Daisy treated me very badly considering how kind I had been to her?
26316Do n''t you want poor papa to have somebody with him?"
26316Do you hear it?"
26316Do you know what it is to be willing to give your life if only you can speak out the thing that is inside of you?"
26316Do you know what that means, Susan?
26316Do you know whether John Henry ever goes to the Treadwell''s or not?
26316Do you really know how to make up a bed?
26316Do you suppose I''ll be able to work again now that I''ve seen you?
26316Do you think Aunt Docia could show me how to iron?"
26316Do you think I might curve it a little more in front?"
26316Do you think it will go hard with her after the first year?
26316Do you think that poor Susan will marry John Henry now?"
26316Do you think that will be as much as I''ll need?"
26316Do you think you can do it?"
26316Do you use safety pins to fasten them with?
26316Do you want any more water in the kettle, ma''am?"
26316Does anything hurt you?"
26316Does he feel quite so hot to you?
26316Does your throat hurt you?"
26316Does your throat really hurt you?"
26316Even Virginia had ceased to make her first question when she met Susan,"How is your mother?"
26316Everybody comes begging to you, I suppose?"
26316Father was never that way about his sermons, was he?"
26316Had he conquered by a look the exquisite modesty of her soul?
26316Had he not said a hundred times that she had succeeded in making his plays popular without making them at the same time ridiculous?
26316Had n''t I better have it made like that black poplin which everybody thought looked so well on me?"
26316Had n''t you better wait?"
26316Had what?
26316Harry, why wo n''t you let me go on to New York to see you off?"
26316Harry,"she concluded sternly,"do n''t you understand that it is naughty of you to behave this way and keep mamma away from poor little Jenny?"
26316Has Oliver paid the driver, mother?
26316Has anything else happened?"
26316Has it really been two weeks since I wrote to you?
26316Has mother been here this afternoon?"
26316Have I not been what you wanted?
26316Have n''t you seen from the beginning?"
26316Have you any money?"
26316Have you any shopping that you would like to do this morning?"
26316Have you decided where you will send him to college?"
26316Have you ever seen Jinny in white organdie?
26316Have you had any worries that you have n''t told me?"
26316Have you made up your mind whether you''ll have it princess or a separate waist and skirt?"
26316Have you quite got over your headache?"
26316Have you some cake around anywhere?"
26316Have you spoken to her?"
26316He had had his day; he had fought his fight; he had helped to make the history of battles-- and now what remained to him?
26316He seems to breathe a little better, does n''t he?"
26316He''s a promising chap, is n''t he?"
26316Henry and George both went out to Australia to open the tobacco market, and Henry died poor while George lived and got rich, I believe?"
26316How are you going to live if he does n''t provide for you?"
26316How can I keep it forever?"
26316How can you say such a cruel thing to me?"
26316How can you say such an unkind thing to me?"
26316How could he break away from her if she were only to weep and to cling to him?
26316How could one fight that sinister power which had removed him to an illimitable distance while he was still in her arms?
26316How did Abby happen to be there?"
26316How long ago was hit I done fust come yer ter you all?"
26316How many had let love lead them where it would without butting their brains forever against the damned wall of expediency?
26316How many had married young and faced the future on less than twelve hundred dollars a year?
26316How many writers-- great writers, too-- would have jumped at a job on a railroad to insure them against starvation?
26316I ca n''t get lost if I go perfectly straight up the street, can I?"
26316I ca n''t imagine Virginia with three children, can you?
26316I could n''t possibly need but this one dress, could I?
26316I do n''t suppose a man ever realizes how a woman looks at these things, but you will understand, wo n''t you, mother?
26316I hope it has n''t been too much for you?"
26316I like his hair being grey, do n''t you?
26316I never imagined it would be like this,"she thought, and the next minute:"I wonder why no one has ever told me that it would happen?
26316I suppose you cling to it because of your mother, and then things are really so much dearer uptown, do n''t you think so?"
26316I suppose you know the names of the shops you want to go to?"
26316I thought your father had washed his hands of him because he had started play- acting or something?"
26316I was just asking mother why she let Lucy marry that old rotter?"
26316I wonder if Oliver would mind my letting her take them back to Bryn Mawr after the holidays?"
26316I wonder if he ever revolts with this unspeakable weariness from waiting on other people and watching them eat?"
26316I wonder if it can be my time of life that makes me so nervous and apprehensive?"
26316I wonder if it has ever really happened before, just like this, since the world began?
26316I wonder if it is work that keeps her so young and brisk?
26316I wonder if mother could run a tuck in them?"
26316I wonder if they wo n''t revolt some time?"
26316I wonder what my dear father would have thought of her?"
26316I''d rather starve than live under a petty tyranny like that?"
26316I''ve been in hell for a year-- don''t you see it?"
26316If I did n''t, do you think I''d stick at this starvation business another fortnight?
26316If he is going to write, why on earth does n''t he sit straight down and do it?
26316If his play goes over to London, he''ll have to be there, wo n''t he?"
26316If the medical profession would begin calling it something else, he wondered if the unmitigated terror of it would n''t partially subside?
26316If we''ve got to be cannibals, why in Heaven''s name make a show and a parade of it?"
26316In that case you will be here in less than two months, wo n''t you?
26316Is n''t Darwin the name of the man who said we were all descended from monkeys?"
26316Is n''t it funny that Oliver wo n''t take any interest in the baby at all?
26316Is n''t it time for supper?"
26316Is n''t that absurd?
26316Is n''t that exactly like Lucy?
26316Is n''t that too absurd?
26316Is she obliged to break off with him now?"
26316Is she still satisfied with Craven?"
26316Is the rose right in my hair?"
26316Is there any need to be alarmed?"
26316Is there any reason why I should n''t?"
26316Is there anything I can help you about, mother?"
26316Is there anything you can think of that you would like?"
26316Is your wife still in the mountains?"
26316It has n''t put a roof on, has it?"
26316It is doubtful if she had ever stopped once in the thirty years of her marriage to ask herself the questions:"Is this what I want to do?"
26316It is n''t anything serious?"
26316It is n''t as if I were going for good, is it?
26316It makes me feel badly to think of it-- but I do n''t see what I could do about it, do you?
26316It was so nice of him to send them, was n''t it?"
26316It''s a dreadful spot-- don''t you think so?
26316It''s all right, then, is n''t it?"
26316It''s just, ai n''t it?"
26316It''s less serious?"
26316It''s queer, is n''t it, how the savage seems to sleep in the most peaceable of men?
26316Jinny, are you sure it''s wise?
26316Might not Harry''s illness, indeed, have been sent to punish her for her neglect?
26316Of course I would n''t put my own health before his comfort, but I am obliged to think first of the baby, am I not?
26316Of his struggle, his sacrifice-- of his art even-- what was the use?
26316Oh, Harry, wo n''t you please hush and let poor mamma dress?
26316Oh, Susan, how will she stand it?"
26316Oh, doctor-- not-- diphtheria?"
26316Oh, mother, are n''t you delighted that the baby is a girl, after all?
26316Oh, you do n''t mean-- you ca n''t really mean that you think I''m not doing the best for my child, Oliver?"
26316Once or twice the kneeling seamstress had glanced up at the girl and thought:"I wonder how it feels to be as lovely as that?"
26316Or did Susan, forsaking the ancient tradition of love, care about him merely because he was good?
26316Or was it merely that he had drifted into that"depressing view"of existence against which he so earnestly warned his parishioners?
26316Or was there somewhere on the earth that stainless happiness which she had once believed her marriage would bring to her?
26316Perhaps one of the numerous indigent gentlewomen that formed so large and so important a part of the population of Dinwiddie?
26316Poor little day, have I hurt its feelings?"
26316Put him under Borrows, for instance, and let him learn a bit about freight?"
26316Seeing that he was waiting for a response, she made a violent endeavour to think of one, and uttered almost inaudibly:"But do n''t they like it?"
26316Shall I close the window, or, like myself, are you a worshipper of the sun?"
26316Shall I ring for fresh?"
26316She could be humble enough, but what good did that do when she was, as he told himself irritably,"as stubborn as a mule"?
26316She glanced in a helpless way at Harry, and he said suddenly:"Do n''t you think Jenny ought to come home to be with mother after Lucy marries?
26316She had abased herself in the dust before God-- she had offered all her life to Him if He would spare her child-- and had He not answered?
26316She has enough flirtations for her age, has n''t she?"
26316She was very pitiable, but after all, what can one do for a negro that shoots a policeman?
26316She''d make a great mother, would n''t she?
26316She''s Gabriel Pendleton''s girl, is n''t she?"
26316Suppose he_ had_ used his railroad to make a fortune-- well, but for him where would the Dinwiddie and Central be to- day if not in the junk shop?
26316Suppose nothing was wrong, after all?
26316Suppose, as Oliver had said, she was merely"sensational"?
26316Surely you do n''t suppose-- she has n''t said anything----""You do n''t imagine that Jinny is the kind of girl who would say anything, do you?"
26316Susan, have you spoken to Oliver?"
26316That was only a teeny- weeny time ago, was n''t it?"
26316That''s splendid, is n''t it?"
26316That''s your namesake, is n''t it?"
26316The children made up for much-- they ought to have made up for everything-- and yet did they?
26316The generous impulses, the high heart for adventure, the enthusiasm of youth, and youth''s white rage for perfection-- where were these?
26316The man who sat next to me always said"he do n''t"and"I ai n''t feeling good to- day"and once even"I done it"--can you imagine such a thing?
26316The play is a great success, is n''t it?"
26316The play will be a great success-- even a greater one than the last, wo n''t it, dear?"
26316The word"success"( and what was success except another name for the universal Treadwell spirit?)
26316Then he opened his lips for a crushing rejoinder, but thinking better of his impulse, merely repeated dryly,"His heart?"
26316Then turning to Virginia, he asked suddenly:"What''s the matter, little cousin?
26316Then, as he made no answer except to flick at John Henry''s bay mare with his whip, she asked daringly,"Are you writing again, Oliver?"
26316Then, as she turned towards the step, he added hastily,"Wo n''t you let me walk home with you?"
26316Then, unable to bear the strain any longer, she cried out sharply:"Oh, Oliver, wo n''t you tell me what is the matter?"
26316They are becoming rather a nuisance, are n''t they?"
26316Think as he would he met always the haunting doubt--"What did she mean?
26316Virginia had started to answer, when a hearty voice called,"May I come in?"
26316Was I as ill as Harry?"
26316Was father like that?
26316Was he in reality the failure that Cyrus believed him to be?
26316Was it all waiting-- waiting, as it had been while battles were fought and armies were marching?
26316Was it much crumpled?"
26316Was it only women, after all, who were in subjection to particulars?
26316Was it possible that John Henry was not so simple, after all?
26316Was it possible that her passionate defence of Abby had been but a beautiful pretence?
26316Was it possible that she could ever look at him with that angelic expression of weakness and surrender?
26316Was it possible that she had imagined herself unhappy thirty- six hours ago-- thirty- six hours ago when her child was not threatened?
26316Was it possible that there was truth in the wildest imaginings of his vanity?
26316Was it possible, after all, that there was"more in it"than she had let appear in her words?
26316Was it the wan, smoky light of the dusk?--Susan wondered, or was Virginia really beginning to break so soon?
26316Was it thought or the absence of thought that produced her wonderful courage?
26316Was n''t it lovely how everything came just as we wanted it to-- a girl, born on father''s birthday, with blue eyes, and named Lucy?
26316Was n''t it too dear of Miss Priscilla to give me that beautiful tea- set?
26316Was n''t that dreadful?"
26316Was that a woman''s life, after all?
26316Was there some dreadful mistake?
26316Was this"something missing"merely one of the necessary conditions of mortal existence?
26316Well, is there any other news?
26316Were her own but a single pair in that chain of pathetic hands that had worked in the exacting service of Love?
26316Were you coming to see me?"
26316What are you doing with him?"
26316What are you going to do with yourself?"
26316What can I do for you?"
26316What could be more beautiful or more sacred than to be"given"to Oliver-- to belong to him as utterly as she had belonged to her father?
26316What could make her happier than the knowledge that she must surrender her will to his from the day of her wedding until the day of her death?
26316What did Cyrus Treadwell''s stinginess matter when his only relation to life consisted in his being the uncle of Oliver?
26316What did Susan have to say?"
26316What did all this tittle- tattle about a great man prove anyhow except his greatness?
26316What did it matter-- what did anything matter to her now?
26316What do anybody''s views matter who ca n''t make a living?
26316What do you mean?"
26316What does father say about it?"
26316What good has it done, anyway?
26316What had she meant?
26316What have you done to your hands?
26316What he wants to do, I mean?"
26316What in God''s name was that boy thinking of?"
26316What in thunder was the matter with the woman?
26316What is she like?"
26316What is the matter?"
26316What remained of their gallant ship to- day except a stark and battered hulk wrecked on the pitiless rocks of the actuality?
26316What was it about the rascal that rubbed him the wrong way only to look at him?
26316What were her good intentions-- what was her love, even, worth-- when her intentions and her love alike had been so lacking in wisdom?
26316What will you do about it?"
26316What would the neighbours think?"
26316What''s he ever done, anyhow, that''s great,"he asked almost angrily,"except accumulate money?
26316When she had gone, Virginia lingered over her wedding dress, while she wondered what the wise Susan could see in the simple John Henry?
26316Where are the others?"
26316Where is Harry, Marthy?"
26316Where would the lumber market be?
26316Who had lived here before him?
26316Why did beauty fade?
26316Why did youth grow middle- aged?
26316Why do n''t you wear the swishy blue silk I always liked on you?"
26316Why do you choke that way?
26316Why do you think that it is only friendship and that he is n''t in love with her?
26316Why is one generation left so absolutely at the mercy of the other?"
26316Why should I?"
26316Why should n''t they be pretty?"
26316Why should you make yourself old by dressing as if you were eighty simply because your grandmother did so?"
26316Will you be here for luncheon?"
26316Will you keep an eye on Harry while I run up and see?"
26316Will you please wipe Harry''s feet while I try to get on my clothes?"
26316Will you send supper up to me?
26316Will you trust me with other people''s souls, but not with your china?"
26316Without these two things, or at least one of these two, what was life worth to a woman?
26316Wo n''t you sit here in the sunshine?
26316Would life yield nothing more to that radiant girl than it had yielded to her or to the other women whom she had known?
26316Would n''t that be dreadful?
26316Would she presently discover that she had imagined that night of useless agony through which she had passed?
26316Would you scallop this oilcloth, mother, or leave it plain?"
26316Years afterwards he asked himself if this was why his admiration for her had never warmed into love?
26316Yes, Abby did look young-- amazingly young-- but, then, what else had she to think of?
26316You ai n''t done furgit dat, is you?"
26316You do n''t suppose I could cut it, do you?
26316You read about it in the paper, did n''t you?"
26316You said twenty- ninth, did n''t you, Gabriel?"
26316You want sister Lucy to have one, do n''t you?
26316You wo n''t forget, mother, that I give Lucy a teaspoonful of cod- liver oil after each meal, will you?
26316You''ll let me spend the night with you, Jinny?"
26316You''ll marry me, my beautiful?"
26316You''re all right, are n''t you, Harry?"
26316Your mother can look after the babies for a couple of days, ca n''t she?"
26316and dear little Jenny?"
26316exclaimed Jenny still sweetly,"whoever heard of a man of that generation stepping back to make room for anybody?"
26316or have they been throwing dust in our eyes through the centuries?"
26316or"Does this make me happy?"
26316she cried, and again,"Oh, Oliver, wo n''t you let me help you?"
26316she exclaimed to Oliver, as they stepped out into the hall; but he merely replied indifferently:"Was she?
26316the cotton market?
26316the tobacco market?
26316was Cyrus''s rejoinder, and then:"Well, what about my nephew, madam?"
26316was there ever a girl so happy as I am?"
