midnight
` Come , we must find your mistress now . ' `` I walked quickly on , and she followed me in silence . Once I glanced back at her -- there was an expression on her face which puzzled me , yes , almost made me afraid . I could imagine Clytemnestra holding her midnight watch , with a face like that -- Lady Macbeth waiting for her husband 's return , with eyes like those -- oh , I had grown so fanciful and silly during those past days . `` We found Mr. James Harrington with his mother , who was just driving away in the carriage . `` When it came back , I saw him return to the Eatons , who seemed to occupy him entirely . Feeling myself completely unregarded , I wandered off by myself , interested in the strange people that surrounded me .
