16 2 | opinion!" replied Porthos. ~"Say no more about it! PESTE!
17 2 | and tell us today, "Let us say no more about it.'" ~"Well,

36 5 | duels could have nothing to say. ~Athos, who still suffered
37 5 | guarded, it would be known, I say, that we were to fight,
38 5 | quite astonished. ~Let us say in passing that he had changed

48 6 | will believe what he will say." ~M. de la Tremouille reflected
49 6 | courtiers to a window and say, "Monsieur So-and-so, let

56 6 | Monsieur de la Tremouille shall say?" ~"Yes, sire." ~"You will

67 8 | to pay me my rent--as, I say, I have not tormented you
68 8 | you; and as I was about to say, by the word of Bonacieux,

77 11 | lives in that house?" ~"I say so, and I repeat it for
78 11 | hers, "well: I will not say as much as you do; what

82 12 | were not queen! Madame, say that you would love me then!

84 13 | perplexing; "that is to say, I HAD one." ~"What, you '
85 13 | recognize him among a thousand, say you?" continued he. ~"That
86 13 | continued he. ~"That is to say," cried Bonacieux, who saw

90 14 | exactly what I was going to say, if your Eminence had let
91 14 | not have the least word to say. Pardon you, monseigneur!

106 16 | What say you, Duke?" ~"I say, sire, that my health is
107 16 | these never-ending labors. I say that according to all probability

109 16 | I should be the first to say, 'No grace, sire--no grace
110 17 | and that is all I had to say to you." ~"But on what day
111 17 | these studs?" ~"That is to say, madame--" ~"It was he,
112 17 | Is that what you would say?" ~"He has some, but he
113 17 | imprudent man?" ~"Well, I can't say I had much choice of going

146 25 | intelligent fellow. And you say in his leisure moments the

148 25 | wine, and without prejudice say what you think of it?" ~"
149 26 | devotedness; but let us hasten to say that this sadness possessed
150 26 | happened to him; that is to say, the sudden disappearance
151 26 | of the inn, he could not say that Aramis was absent,
152 26 | and as a proof of what I say, permit me to declare I

156 26 | will Monsieur de Treville say? They will treat you as

161 26 | coronet." ~"What do you say?" ~"Hold! I must have lost
162 27 | la Valette, what do you say of him? He is a cardinal
163 27 | said he. ~"Yes, I dare say; verses perfumed with the

165 27 | quality, and not coiners--say?" ~"Yes, monsieur, you are
166 27 | courteous fashion." ~"God? Say the devil!" ~"My dear friend,"
167 27 | mischief is as great as you say." ~"Oh, gentlemen," said
168 27 | hesitation. ~"Come hither, I say, and don't be afraid," continued
169 28 | himself again--that is to say, the most shrewd and impenetrable
170 28 | word with my friend." ~"Say on." ~Athos drew d'Artagnan
171 28 | Artagnan. ~"Oh, we can scarcely say. We have made our calculations
172 29 | one another, as much as to say, "Have you found anything?" ~
173 29 | minutes? I have something to say to you." ~"Certainly, madame,"
174 29 | Porthos; "for I, madame, I may say I was your victim, when
175 29 | said Porthos, "let us say no more upon the subject,
176 29 | more melancholy. ~"Rather say that you have a new love." ~"
177 30 | constantly. ~"That is to say, you are in love with this
178 30 | an Englishman. We might say that was his dream. ~They
179 31 | women. Milady is fair, you say?" ~"She has the most beautiful

183 33 | imaginable. ~"I wish to say three words to you, Monsieur
184 33 | Impossible! That which I have to say is too long, and above all,
185 33 | She will not hear what we say; she never goes to bed before
186 33 | she. ~"Oh, more than I can say, Kitty! I am mad for her!" ~
187 33 | agreeable." ~"That is to say, you don't believe what
188 33 | Artagnan believed it right to say that vengeance is the pleasure
189 33 | only she believed she could say she was not dead. ~As to
190 34 | protects?" ~"That is to say, I visit an Englishwoman--
191 34 | had nothing important to say to each other, and follow
192 34 | Aramis, that's all I can say." ~"How, monsieur?" cried
193 34 | Pray," said the lackey, "say nothing about it, monsieur;
194 36 | suspect something; who could say how far the vengeance of
195 36 | me, tell me, tell me, I say," repeated Milady, "how
196 37 | reassured her. ~We cannot say how long the night seemed
197 37 | you love me as much as you say," replied d'Artagnan, "do
198 38 | poultices?" ~"Yes." ~"But you say she is English?" ~"She is
199 38 | She will not dare to say anything; that would be
200 38 | you, but I believe all you say to be true. Let us return
201 38 | something very important to say to him." ~"I understand,"
202 38 | make his report, and to say that all the pigeons are
203 38 | How much did the Jew say he would give for the sapphire
204 38 | pistoles." ~"That is to say, two hundred more--a hundred
205 39 | what his Eminence had to say to him. Nothing could turn
206 40 | understanding. Now, what would you say to an ensign's commission
207 40 | Then, I will presume to say that all my friends are
208 40 | sell myself." ~"That is to say, you refuse to serve me,
209 40 | if I shall be able to say to you at another time what
210 41 | necessary that we should say a few words about it, particularly
211 41 | That we are not able to say; but at all events, we have
212 41 | the cardinal; that is to say, of a man before whom trembled
213 41 | trod under his feet. ~We say the gravel he trod under
214 41 | you, as I have heard him say." ~"But how did you become
215 42 | wine?" ~"No! And yet you say he has sent you some as
216 42 | I, wretch? What do you say?" ~"I say that it was you
217 42 | wretch? What do you say?" ~"I say that it was you who gave
218 42 | who gave me the wine; I say that it was you who desired
219 42 | desired me to drink it. I say you wished to avenge yourself
220 42 | avenge yourself on me, and I say that it is horrible!" ~"
221 42 | an explanation with her. Say to her: 'Peace or war! My

224 42 | said Athos. "Don't you say, dear d'Artagnan, that it
225 43 | believe everything ministers say, nor everything their enemies
226 43 | everything their enemies say. ~These attempts did not
227 43 | I do not doubt what you say, Monsieur Athos, I do not
228 44 | Instantly! That is to say, when you have received
229 44 | the things he was about to say, and to engrave them in
230 44 | fact, that is all. Only I say that if I were named Madame
231 44 | the torture may make him say things he remembers, and
232 44 | Monseigneur will permit me to say a few words to him of mine?" ~"

234 44 | road is not safe. I will say two words about it to the
235 45 | part of Athos. She might say that Athos had hanged her;
236 46 | fish at a seaport?" ~"They say," said Aramis, resuming
237 46 | Artagnan said?" ~"What did he say?" demanded Porthos. ~"d'
238 47 | friend." ~"Judge not rashly, say the gospel and the cardinal,"
239 47 | Athos, "God is great, as say the followers of Mohammed,
240 47 | passed into mine; I will not say without trouble, for if
241 47 | asked Athos, quietly. ~"I say I am entirely of Porthos'
242 47 | very important things to say; and the third, that it
243 47 | Athos, "I have nothing to say against a retreat. We bet
244 47 | us sell the diamond, and say no more about it." ~The
245 48 | for the masters, we may say. Are our lackeys sufficiently
246 48 | Well, perhaps. I will say, then, Monsieur, quite short." ~"
247 48 | quite short." ~"You may even say, My Lord," replied Athos,
248 48 | this is what you have to say," said d'Artagnan: "My Lord,
249 48 | blushing, "what must I say?" ~"Oh, that's simple enough!"
250 48 | I will even venture to say that I am certain M. de
251 48 | at his friends, as if to say, "Well, what did I tell
252 48 | We will not venture to say whether it was from terror

256 48 | of Athos. ~"You mean to say we have lost," said Athos,
257 50 | out. "What do you mean to say? Is there any secret meaning
258 50 | just confirmed--that is to say, with what view you have
259 50 | had taken. You came, you say, to see me?" ~"Yes." ~"Well,
260 50 | make him speak. What do you say of him? Could a statue of
261 50 | hands. Well, I call you, and say to you: Friend Felton, John,
262 51 | inhabitant of La Rochelle, we say, entered the city, coming
263 51 | Inseparables; that is to say, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. ~
264 51 | to other men; one would say he had never had to do with
265 51 | often as you can; that is to say, as often as you can with
266 52 | as her guards; that is to say, soldiers. ~Felton's orders
267 53 | who became impatient, "say yourself, madame, what treatment
268 53 | mean, sir!" ~"I mean to say that since we last met you
269 54 | see all; perhaps he would say nothing, but he would see. ~
270 54 | knowest whether I am guilty! Say I am condemned, sir, if
271 54 | offering to God." ~"What do you say? Oh, you do not understand
272 54 | for the signature, and you say to yourself: 'All is not
273 54 | madame. That is all I had to say to you." ~"And I reply to
274 55 | becomes martyrdom." ~"You say either too much or too little;
275 55 | cannot believe what you say!" ~"Let me act as I please,
276 55 | aside at will; that is to say, beauty, meekness, and tears--
277 55 | Be not alarmed at what I say; I want to be convinced.
278 56 | this order was signed, we say, the baron would make her

284 57 | fortunately, we ought to say skillfully, come in contact
285 58 | then; that is all I have to say today. Tomorrow I will see
286 58 | with you; that is all I can say to you." ~"Silence!" cried
287 59 | That which I have to say of her can only be heard
288 59 | too far!" ~"What do you say? God pardon me!" cried Buckingham, "
289 59 | Lord, I still plead. And I say to you: one drop of water
290 59 | Have you nothing else to say to me by the living voice,

296 61 | friends, Monsieur d'Artagnan, say a great deal about them." ~"
297 62 | What did the cardinal say about me?" ~"I was to take
298 62 | conduct you to me." ~"And you say you will wait for me at
299 62 | touch the convent garden. Say that I am permitted to walk
300 65 | heaven. If you know a prayer, say it--for you are condemned,
