midnight
Lady Glencora , as we know , could talk with imprudent vehemence by the hour together if she liked her companion ; but the other lady seldom committed herself by more words than she had uttered now , -- unless it was to her tirewoman . `` How very well you are looking , '' said the Duchess . `` And I heard you had been so ill . '' Of that midnight escapade among the ruins it was fated that Lady Glencora should never hear the last . `` How d'ye do , Lady Glencowrer ? '' sounded in her ear , and there was a great red paw stuck out for her to take . But after what had passed between Lady Glencora and her husband to-day about Mr. Bott , she was determined that she would not take Mr. Bott 's hand .
