neu_00000 | Hilda watched him with perplexity. | en | neutral | |
neu_00001 | She caught his handkerchief from her throat and thrust it at him without turning round. | en | neutral | |
neu_00002 | "Well, after we had been there for a long time, Hakon came in to the feast one night and said: | en | neutral | |
neu_00003 | What she wanted from us was neither our flowers nor our francs, but just our youth. | en | neutral | |
neu_00004 | "No, ma'am," he said eagerly; then glancing up toward the Cresswell fields, he saw two white men watching them. | en | neutral | |
neu_00005 | I did not even take the precaution of smoking up the chimney. | en | neutral | |
neu_00006 | All the more stress would be laid on this fact, as it would be an exceptional one; for I am informed by mr Denny that the most different kinds of dogs, fowls, and pigeons, in England, are infested by the same species of Pediculi or lice. | en | neutral | |
neu_00007 | Even some of the most strongly marked races cannot be identified with that degree of unanimity which might have been expected from what has been written on the subject. | en | neutral | |
neu_00008 | There I put the pilot's seat and a strong tiller for the rudder. | en | neutral | |
neu_00009 | Telephone wires hum along the white roads, which always run at right angles. | en | neutral | |
neu_00010 | The door opened softly. | en | neutral | |
neu_00011 | "Well, we are neither of us twenty now, you know. | en | neutral | |
neu_00012 | "Doctor of what?" asked mrs Carey. | en | neutral | |
neu_00013 | When they reached the house where Hilda lodged, Bartley went across the court with her, and up the dark old stairs to the third landing; and there he had kissed her for the first time. | en | neutral | |
neu_00014 | This service Plautus rendered, consciously or unconsciously, by making two Carthaginian soldiers talk Phoenician; that service Moliere rendered, by making so many of his characters talk Levantine and all sorts of dialects. | en | neutral | |
neu_00015 | His eyes lighted, for cotton was to him a very real and beautiful thing, and a life-long companion, yet not one whose friendship had been coarsened and killed by heavy toil. | en | neutral | |
neu_00016 | He lightly touches upon a few points,--the division of labour and distribution of the citizens into classes, the double nature and training of the guardians, the community of property and of women and children. | en | neutral | |
neu_00017 | "Do you think so?" she replied with indifference. | en | neutral | |
neu_00018 | "And yet," he said, "your majesty did not use this language some time ago, when the news about Belle Isle arrived, for instance." | en | neutral | |
neu_00019 | She seized it; she clung to it. | en | neutral | |
neu_00020 | In Germany, they generally "Hock the Kaiser." | en | neutral | |
neu_00021 | Some others, too; big cotton county." | en | neutral | |
neu_00022 | She groped for new ways to teach colored brains and marshal colored thoughts and the result was puzzling both to teacher and student. | en | neutral | |
neu_00023 | And here I am able to show you, fortunately, one of his works painted at this time of his most earnest thought; when his imagination was still freshly filled with the Greek mythology, and he saw for the first time with his own eyes the clouds come down upon the actual earth. | en | neutral | |
neu_00024 | 'In mind,' replied the priest, 'I mean to say that you are children; there is no opinion or tradition of knowledge among you which is white with age; and I will tell you why. | en | neutral | |
neu_00025 | "Oh, you know Annie!" She looked at the young man's bare arms. | en | neutral | |
neu_00026 | They first contrived the eyes, into which they conveyed a light akin to the light of day, making it flow through the pupils. | en | neutral | |
neu_00027 | The chapel lay full in view, where so many of the, strange and equivocal race, under whose ancient roof tree I then stood, were lying under their tombstones. | en | neutral | |
neu_00028 | "Ain't they the greatest?" murmured Lallie Joy, turning to her father, but he had disappeared from the group. | en | neutral | |
neu_00029 | I never dreamed it would be you, Bartley. | en | neutral | |
neu_00030 | To this his answer was prompt. | en | neutral | |
neu_00031 | "Sire, they were sent at the hour promised." | en | neutral | |
neu_00032 | Heaven!" he exclaimed, suddenly. | en | neutral | |
neu_00033 | When one kidney ceases to act from disease, the other increases in size, and does double work. | en | neutral | |
neu_00034 | I drink this to your health.' | en | neutral | |
neu_00035 | Bartley leaned over her shoulder, without touching her, and whispered in her ear: "You are giving me a chance?" | en | neutral | |
neu_00036 | We had only a few days, and your new play was just on, and you were so happy." | en | neutral | |
neu_00037 | He rode before a portmanteau, and called himself Ashburnham's servant. | en | neutral | |
neu_00038 | Up in the sick room Zora lay on the little white bed. | en | neutral | |
neu_00039 | Blinking up at the lights, Mainhall added in his luxurious, worldly way: "She's an elegant little person, and quite capable of an extravagant bit of sentiment like that. | en | neutral | |
neu_00040 | He keeps the thou shalt not commandments first rate, Hen Lord does! | en | neutral | |
neu_00041 | At least, tell me that you believe I thought I was making you happy." | en | neutral | |
neu_00042 | Once understand that, and you will see why Turner has put her death under this deep shade of trees, the sun withdrawing his last ray; and why he has put beside her the low type of an animal's pain, a dog licking its wounded paw. | en | neutral | |
neu_00043 | I wanted you to eat all the cakes and have them, too. | en | neutral | |
neu_00044 | He stood a little behind her, and tried to steady himself as he said: "It's soft and misty. | en | neutral | |
neu_00045 | The glimmering sea of delicate leaves whispered and murmured before her, stretching away to the Northward. She remembered that beyond this little world it stretched on and on-how far she did not know-but on and on in a great trembling sea, and the foam of its mighty waters would one time flood the ends of the earth. | en | neutral | |
neu_00046 | The applause continued so long that the comte had ample leisure to join the king. | en | neutral | |
neu_00047 | "Well then," I said, "just sit right down and begin." | en | neutral | |
neu_00048 | Besides, the king's heart was filled with two or three new ideas; he had just derived fresh inspiration from the eloquent glances of Madame. | en | neutral | |
neu_00049 | They set up a crane over the fire and hung the pot upon it, and we sat and watched it boil while we joked. | en | neutral | |
neu_00050 | Nancy's curly chestnut crop shone in the sun, and Olive's thick black plaits looked blacker by contrast. | en | neutral | |
neu_00051 | Her hand, so marvellously full of skill, had never held another's, and she was desperately self conscious; but magnetism flowed from Nancy as electric currents from a battery. | en | neutral | |
neu_00052 | "My men roared with laughter. | en | neutral | |
neu_00053 | A cold shiver passed through poor De Guiche; he was unprepared for such utter indifference, for he had neither seen nor been told of anything that had taken place, and consequently could guess nothing. | en | neutral | |
neu_00054 | I wish you therefore to begin your study of natural history and landscape by discerning the simple outlines and the pleasant colors of things; and to rest in them as long as you can. | en | neutral | |
neu_00055 | "Yes; but perhaps I frightened her." | en | neutral | |
neu_00056 | I carried it all lightly enough at first, but now I don't dare trifle with it. | en | neutral | |
neu_00057 | And Wylder laughed again, and began to whistle very low-not, I fancy, for want of thought, but as a sort of accompaniment thereto, for he suddenly said- | en | neutral | |
neu_00058 | I liked Naomi Colebrook at first sight; liked her pleasant smile; liked her hearty shake of the hand when we were presented to each other. | en | neutral | |
neu_00059 | Bartley, you're cowardly!" | en | neutral | |
neu_00060 | She, however, did not bestow a single glance upon him. | en | neutral | |
neu_00061 | "What about us, Bartley?" she asked in a thin voice. | en | neutral | |
neu_00062 | "I can't stand seeing you miserable." | en | neutral | |
neu_00063 | Alexander caught the agitation in her voice. | en | neutral | |
neu_00064 | "I can't tell you how glad I am to have you so pretty and comfortable here, and to hear every one saying such nice things about you. | en | neutral | |
neu_00065 | And so, howsoever reluctantly, she had gone. | en | neutral | |
neu_00066 | Bartley started when Hilda rang the little bell beside her. | en | neutral | |
neu_00067 | I see-to be sure-really, Wylder, it does your taste infinite credit.' | en | neutral | |
neu_00068 | The fact is, she's feeling rather seedy, poor child. | en | neutral | |
neu_00069 | They were both remembering what the woman had said when she took the money: "God give you a happy love!" | en | neutral | |
neu_00070 | But don't these very wise things sometimes turn out very foolishly? | en | neutral | |
neu_00071 | O! Cyril, there must be some better way of doing; I just draw the outline of an animal and then I put hairs or feathers on it. | en | neutral | |
neu_00072 | "We are not judges of what belongs to ourselves," he replied-"I am transported at the tidings you have revealed, and yet, perhaps, I had better never have heard them." | en | neutral | |
neu_00073 | "You do not know Louise, count," said Raoul. | en | neutral | |
neu_00074 | She sat with the ease that belongs to persons of an essentially happy nature, who can find a comfortable spot almost anywhere; who are supple, and quick in adapting themselves to circumstances. | en | neutral | |
neu_00075 | I was frightened at your prodigality." | en | neutral | |
neu_00076 | That spirit belongs to the blood of our strange race; all our women were so. | en | neutral | |
neu_00077 | What is slang? | en | neutral | |
neu_00078 | Every one at Lady Walford's was looking at it." | en | neutral | |
neu_00079 | Many men we found overburdened with gold. | en | neutral | |
neu_00080 | Always before she had been veiled from these folk: who had put the veil there? | en | neutral | |
neu_00081 | Its curtains were of thick and faded tapestry. | en | neutral | |
neu_00082 | "'You would not eat with us. | en | neutral | |
neu_00083 | Leif and Grim shall be the same kind of friends to your two sons.' | en | neutral | |
neu_00084 | There aren't many such left. | en | neutral | |
neu_00085 | And Wylder chuckled angrily, and the small change in his pocket tinkled fiercely, as his eye glanced on the graceful captain, who was entertaining the ladies, no doubt, very agreeably in the distance. | en | neutral | |
neu_00086 | American tours have spoiled them, I'm afraid. | en | neutral | |
neu_00087 | "I've got it!" she announced. | en | neutral | |
neu_00088 | He came down to her slowly, with fixed, hungry eyes, threading his way amid the Fleece. | en | neutral | |
neu_00089 | But Hilda Burgoyne's the hit of the piece. Hugh's written a delightful part for her, and she's quite inexpressible. It's been on only two weeks, and I've been half a dozen times already. I happen to have MacConnell's box for tonight or there'd be no chance of our getting places. | en | neutral | |
neu_00090 | But two terms must be united by a third, which is a mean between them; and had the earth been a surface only, one mean would have sufficed, but two means are required to unite solid bodies. | en | neutral | |
neu_00091 | Though Marie is clean-really clean, as the French are. | en | neutral | |
neu_00092 | These children were, by the strangest of chances for a man in his position-a lone man without the right sort of experience or a grain of patience-very heavily on his hands. | en | neutral | |
neu_00093 | Hilda shivered and sat still. | en | neutral | |
neu_00094 | "Quite true, and I believe you are right. | en | neutral | |
neu_00095 | Why aren't they up in the Catholic graveyard?" | en | neutral | |
neu_00096 | "You'll all meet me here?" | en | neutral | |
neu_00097 | Poor Douglas, before his death-when it was in sight-committed to me the manuscript that reached him on the third of these days and that, on the same spot, with immense effect, he began to read to our hushed little circle on the night of the fourth. | en | neutral | |
neu_00098 | The farmer crouched by the fire, afraid to move. | en | neutral | |
neu_00099 | "Well, if I don't know who she was in love with, I know who HE was." | en | neutral |
