noon
I was instructed -LRB- and it is always far the best way -RRB- to tell as much truth as my story would possibly bear . When , for instance , he would ask me , ` What does the Chevalier do of a morning ? ' ` He goes to church regularly ' -LRB- he was very religious -RRB- , ` and after hearing mass comes home to breakfast . Then he takes an airing in his chariot till dinner , which is served at noon . After dinner he writes his letters , if he have any letters to write : but he has very little to do in this way . His letters are to the Austrian envoy , with whom he corresponds , but who does not acknowledge him ; and being written in English , of course I look over his shoulder . He generally writes for money .
