five o'clock on Sunday afternoons
At five he went to bed and slept like a top . `` The City chaffed him , and Bayswater shook its head over him , but that he did not mind . The only thing that really troubled him was loss of spiritual communion . At five o'clock on Sunday afternoons he felt he wanted chapel , but had to do without it . At seven he ate his simple mid - day meal . At eleven he had tea and muffins , and at midnight he began to crave again for hymns and sermons . At three he had a bread-and-cheese supper , and retired early at four a.m. , feeling sad and unsatisfied .
