  3  2,3|          read every thought in Van Baerle's mind, and every sentiment
  4  2,3|            repeat to you, that Van Baerle is not aware of the nature
  5  2,3|           why that?" ~"Because Van Baerle will neither give up the
  6  5,1|             rara avis, was Dr. van Baerle, the godson of Cornelius
  7  5,1|            were born. ~Mynheer van Baerle the father had amassed in
  8  5,1|        guilders, which Mynheer van Baerle the son, at the death of
  9  5,1|          they were guilders of Van Baerle the father and of Van Baerle
 10  5,1|       Baerle the father and of Van Baerle the grandfather; but we
 11  5,1|           purse, for Cornelius van Baerle, the hero of this story,
 12  5,1|             the worthy Mynheer van Baerle died, to the intense grief
 13  5,2|       began to talk of Mynheer van Baerle's tulips; and his beds,
 14  5,2| illustrious Roman travellers. ~Van Baerle began by expending his yearly
 15  5,2|         after his mother; the "Van Baerle," after his father; and
 16  5,2|            political passions, Van Baerle had gained the affections
 17  5,2|           cultivating tulips. ~Van Baerle was truly beloved by his
 18  5,2|        mankind, that Cornelius van Baerle, without being aware of
 19  5,2|            time when Cornelius van Baerle began to devote himself
 20  5,3|            of being rich, like Van Baerle. He had therefore, with
 21  5,3|         All at once, Cornelius van Baerle, who, after all his learned
 22  5,3|          no great consequence. Van Baerle was but a painter, a sort
 23  5,3|          in the right. Mynheer van Baerle was a painter, as Mynheer
 24  5,3|       tulips. ~The law was for Van Baerle, and Boxtel had to abide
 25  5,3|          grateful to Cornelius van Baerle for having given him a screen
 26  5,3|      extent of his misfortune. Van Baerle was known to be fond of
 27  5,3|          that of his neighbour Van Baerle, he convinced himself that
 28  5,3|            not be a doubt that Van Baerle had become a tulip-grower. ~
 29  5,3|            for real ones, that Van Baerle took from him half a degree
 30  5,3|            of warmth. And thus Van Baerle was to have the most admirably
 31  5,3|         conqueror. ~And now if Van Baerle produced a new tulip, and
 32  6,1|      source of misery to him. ~Van Baerle, as may easily be imagined,
 33  6,1|          Boxtel, though he was Van Baerle's deadly foe, would have
 34  6,1|      banner with him. ~Mynheer van Baerle and his tulips, therefore,
 35  6,1|       represented by Cornelius van Baerle, the modest and inoffensive
 36  6,1|       planting, and gathering, Van Baerle, caressed by the whole fraternity
 37  6,1|           during the period of Van Baerle's successes. Whilst Cornelius
 38  6,1|            content with seeing Van Baerle. He wanted to see his flowers,
 39  6,1|      jealous man to observe in Van Baerle's beds tulips which dazzled
 40  6,1|    mattered so very much. ~Yet Van Baerle made such progress in the
 41  6,2|        white house opened, and Van Baerle made his appearance, approaching
 42  6,2|        bulbs: how gladly would Van Baerle have redeemed that precious
 43  6,2|          was enough to console Van Baerle, and enough to fan the rage
 44  6,2|            committed in vain. ~Van Baerle could not imagine the cause
 45  6,2|          of French tradition. ~Van Baerle was one of the tulip-growers
 46  6,2|        light of a speculation. Van Baerle, as soon as the idea had
 47  6,2|         else but the doings at Van Baerle's. He breathed through the
 48  6,2|          through the stalks of Van Baerle's tulips, quenched his thirst
 49  6,2|            in the morning when Van Baerle went up to his laboratory,
 50  6,2|     Sometimes, whilst covering Van Baerle with his telescope, he deluded
 51  7,1|          his godson, Cornelius van Baerle, one evening in the month
 52  7,1|       father to a son, visited Van Baerle's treasures, the crowd gathered
 53  7,1|           warmth of the stove. Van Baerle, therefore, passed the whole
 54  7,1|         said in a low voice to Van Baerle, - ~"My dear son, send these
 55  7,1|        near the table on which Van Baerle had placed the taper. ~In
 56  7,1|         import be intrusted to Van Baerle, who not only was, but also
 57  7,1|        well not to expect that Van Baerle would not have lost one
 58  7,1|       turned towards the door, Van Baerle seizing the candlestick,
 59  7,1|           deposit intrusted to Van Baerle, and carefully locked up
 60  7,1|           it in his name. ~And Van Baerle, as we have seen, locked
 61  7,1|       hatred of his neighbour, Van Baerle had proceeded step by step
 62  7,2|          the name of Cornelius van Baerle for ever illustrious. ~"
 63  7,2|            order of the day." ~Van Baerle raised his eyes to heaven
 64  7,2|              After its grower, Van Baerle,' will be the answer. - '
 65  7,2|                And who is this Van Baerle?' - 'It is the same who
 66  7,2|            my tulip has flowered," Baerle continued in his soliloquy, "
 67  7,2|            rather be Cornelius van Baerle than Alexander, Caesar,
 68  7,2|         household of Cornelius van Baerle, that the latter, at the
 69  7,2|        bulb which he already held, Baerle went to the fireplace, knelt
 70  7,3|     meaning of all this?" said Van Baerle, grasping in his hands the
 71  7,3|           escape, nurse?" said Van Baerle. ~"Jump out of the window." ~"

 75  8,1|          Cornelius de Witt and Van Baerle had escaped him. He had,
 76  8,1|          importance, as he saw Van Baerle so carefully secreting the
 77  8,1|          accomplice, Cornelius van Baerle, is no less a bad citizen
 78  8,1|       inform against Cornelius van Baerle." ~Specious as this mode
 79  8,1|          of the progress which Van Baerle had made towards producing
 80  8,1|         certainty of Cornelius van Baerle that caused the fever which
 81  8,1|            he also, instead of Van Baerle, would have the prize of
 82  8,1|      assembled, and decided on Van Baerle's arrest, placing the order
 83  8,1|      mishap which had befallen Van Baerle, he was announcing agreeable
 84  8,1|            neighbour Cornelius van Baerle is arrested for high treason." ~"
 85  8,1|             How so?" ~"Mynheer van Baerle is arrested, and has been
 86  8,2|            against the wall of Van Baerle's house, where it just reached
 87  8,2|         seeds and bulbs, which Van Baerle kept in duplicate, if possible
 88  8,2|        before, the unfortunate Van Baerle had so leisurely, and with
 89  9,1|       about midnight when poor Van Baerle was locked up in the prison
 90  9,1|        stead: it was Cornelius van Baerle whom they were bringing. ~
 91  9,1|          unexpected arrival of Van Baerle. ~It would have made a fine
 92 11  |                  11. Cornelius Van Baerle's Will~
 93 11,1|         the trial of Cornelius van Baerle. The examination, however,
 94 11,1|          of those two martyrs, Van Baerle had no longer any reason
 95 11,1|          de Witt and Cornelius van Baerle. ~The honest doctor did
 96 11,1|         the whole household of Van Baerle; and that consequently he
 97 11,1|           my house." ~This was Van Baerle's whole defence; after which
 98 11,1|               Either Cornelius van Baerle is a great lover of tulips,
 99 11,1|         the case. As Cornelius van Baerle was concerned in the growing
100 11,1|   pronounced against Cornelius van Baerle, as being arraigned, and
101 11,2|            aforesaid Cornelius van Baerle should be led from the prison
102 11,2|           the Recorder saluted Van Baerle with all that consideration
103 11,3|         long life! ~"Cornelius van Baerle." ~The prisoner then, giving
104 11,3|           few lines, which, if Van Baerle had read them, would undoubtedly
105 12,1|            and where Cornelius van Baerle was about to be murdered
106 12,1|      notwithstanding all this, Van Baerle mounted the scaffold not
107 12,1|            raising his sword. ~Van Baerle bade farewell to the great
108 12,1|            him. ~Then suddenly Van Baerle felt gentle hands raising
109 12,1|            the streets below. ~Van Baerle began to be sensible to
110 12,1|        very likely afraid that Van Baerle's blood would turn the scale

113 12,1|       Meuse, opposite Gorcum. ~Van Baerle was sufficiently versed
114 12,1|            stivers. ~"I," said Van Baerle to himself, "I am worth
115 13,1|       horses, who soon carried Van Baerle away from among the shouts
116 13,1|            the spectators whom Van Baerle's execution had attracted
117 13,1|          bulbs which Cornelius van Baerle must be supposed to conceal,
118 13,2|      surveyed the movements of Van Baerle. How would he place himself
119 13,2|            been able to get at Van Baerle, he would have pounced upon
120 14,1|           honour for Cornelius van Baerle to be confined in the same
121 14,1|         sent the tulip-fancier Van Baerle there. ~~The cell had a
122 14,1|       other hand, it seemed to Van Baerle an auspicious omen that
123 14,1|    Loewestein. ~These pigeons, Van Baerle said to himself, are coming
124 14,1|            days of captivity. ~Van Baerle, from whose thoughts the
125 14,1|            the great grief, of Van Baerle. ~On the sixteenth day,
126 14,1|         came back without it. ~Van Baerle had addressed it to his
127 14,1|            enclosed for Rosa. ~Van Baerle's nurse had received the
128 14,1|           to that of Cornelius van Baerle. ~The nurse was a kind-hearted
129 14,2|          willed that Cornelius van Baerle should happen to hit upon
130 14,2|          Waal and the Meuse, - Van Baerle's letter would have fallen
131 14,2|         have said, had reached Van Baerle's nurse. ~And also it came
132 15,1|            that's you, Mynheer van Baerle," said Gryphus. "That's
133 15,1|       Master Gryphus," replied Van Baerle, "that if I have entertained
134 15,1|         Master Gryphus," cried Van Baerle, turning away his head to
135 15,1|    consolation to the heart of Van Baerle. ~Gryphus stepped towards
136 15,2|            the nest. This gave Van Baerle time to run to the door,
137 16,1|         times a day he entered Van Baerle's cell, expecting to find
138 16,1|             however, to engage Van Baerle in a conversation from the
139 16,1|          astonishment of Rosa, Van Baerle pushed back her white hand
140 16,1|         right. And, moreover," Van Baerle, having become mistrustful
141 16,2|             And as the lips of Van Baerle approached the grating with
142 16,2|           her father. ~Indeed, Van Baerle's happiness depended on
143 17,2|             What is it?" asked Van Baerle. "I thought I heard something." ~"
144 17,2|       secrets of the prisoner. Van Baerle, therefore, had devised
145 17,2|            and which Cornelius van Baerle had set so well, grasped
146 17,2|          Master Gryphus," said Van Baerle, imploringly, and anxious

148 17,2|        quite black; and whilst Van Baerle, quite happy to have saved
149 17,2|         under his heavy shoe. ~Van Baerle saw the work of destruction,
150 18,1|       value. This poor Mynheer van Baerle amused himself with this
151 18,2|           And even," continued Van Baerle, warming more and more with
152 19,1|         last will of Cornelius van Baerle was written. ~"Alas!" she
153 19,2|           it came back again. ~Van Baerle passed the night in an agony
154 19,2|      gloomy as, involuntarily, Van Baerle mixed up with it the thought
155 20,1|             at the usual hour, Van Baerle heard some one scratch at
156 21,1|            And why not?" asked Van Baerle. ~"The conspiracy seems
157 21,1|        which Rosa had given to Van Baerle, this was the only trophy

161 24,2|               Gryphus!" roared Van Baerle. "Oh, you villain!" ~Old
162 25,1|  fulfilment of which Cornelius van Baerle had rested his ambition
163 25,1|         went up in his fury to Van Baerle, abused him, threatened
164 27,1|          His name is Cornelius van Baerle," said Boxtel, "and he is

175 29,1|         the prisoner Cornelius van Baerle?" ~"Exactly, Captain." ~"
176 29,2|          You are Dr. Cornelius van Baerle?" asked he, this time addressing
177 29,2|        orders, he whispered to Van Baerle, - ~"Condemned prisoners
