twenty o'clock
`` Him _ were _ up till ten o'clock on Kissmass , '' said Herr Baby , brightening up . `` Him were up _ dedful _ late , till , till , p ` raps till near twenty o'clock . '' Auntie would have liked to laugh , but she took care not , for when Baby was in this sort of humour there was no telling whether other people 's laughing might not make him take to crying , so she just said , `` Indeed ! That must have been _ very _ late ; well , go to sleep now , and sleep till twenty o'clock to-morrow morning , if you like . We do n't need to start early , '' she added , turning to Lisa ; and I think poor Lisa was not sorry to hear it ! If I were to go on telling you , bit by bit , all about the journey , and everything that happened big and little , it would take a good while , and I do n't know that you would find it very interesting . Perhaps it is better to take a jump , as people do in real big story books , and to go on with Herr Baby 's adventures a few days later , when he , and Denny , and Fritz , and Celia , and Lisa , and mother , and auntie , and grandfather , and the `` bully , '' and the `` calanies , '' and Tim , and Peepy-Snoozle , and Linley , mother 's maid , and Peters , grandfather 's man , and I forget if there was any one else , but I think not ; and all the boxes and carpet-bags , and railway-rugs , were safely arrived at Santino , the pretty little town with mountains on one side and the sea on the other , where they were all going to spend the winter .
