o'clock
`` I do n't think I 'll go to sleep , '' said Dick . `` I 'm going to keep the fire piled high , so that it will light up as it 's doing now . '' `` Then I 'll turn in right away , '' answered the guide . `` It 's eight o'clock . You call me at two , and that will be givin ' you a fair nap afore daybreak . '' And so it was agreed . It did not take John Barrow long to settle himself , and soon he was snoring as peacefully as though lying in his bed at home .
