two in the morning
Phoebe got up to her mistress 's room safely enough . There , her instructions were to wait until the house was quiet for the night , and then to steal up to her own room . While she was waiting , the girl fell asleep . She only awoke at two in the morning , or later . It did n't much matter , as she thought . She stole out on tiptoe , and closed the door behind her . Before she was at the end of the corridor , she fancied she heard something .
