midnight
You would still have had faith in me had I remained there . And it was easy to do ; it was all planned . You know the old tower by the spring , to which we walked the other day . I was to send Hugo at midnight to M. de la Chatre , with word to have his men hidden there to-morrow at sunset . To-morrow I was to go off into the forest with Jeannotte , and at sunset she was to come to you , saying that I was at the tower grievously injured . You would have gone , monsieur , without waiting to call any of your men ; you would have come at my summons on the instant , to the end of the world -- '' `` You knew that ? Truly , the heart of man is an open page to women ! ''
