Nine o'clock
`` No indeed ! What time is it ? '' asked Fritz , opening his eyes sleepily . `` Nine o'clock and I thought you wished to start at six . '' `` Up , you sleepers ! '' cried the boy , as he sprang out of bed . The others obeyed promptly and commenced dressing , and in a short time appeared with clean hands , faces and teeth , at the good breakfast provided for them , their hair neatly brushed , and their spirits refreshed from a sound sleep in comfortable beds .
