midnight
I knew that you and I should be friends . ' ` But -- ' ` Not a word further . I will not hear a word further . If you talk till midnight , you can not improve what you have said . ' ` But Madame Neroni , Mrs Bold -- ' ` I will not hear a word about Mrs Bold . Dread thoughts of strychnine did pass across my brain , but she is welcome to the second place . ' ` Her place -- ' ` I wo n't hear anything about her or her place .
