Five o’clock
` In one hundred years , ' Monsieur Ferelius quotes him as saying , ` my doctrine will guide the _ Church _ . ' He predicted the day and hour of his death . On that day , Sunday , March 29 , 1772 , hearing the clock strike , he asked what time it was . ` Five o'clock ' was the answer . ` It is well , ' he answered ; ` thank you , God bless you . ' Ten minutes later he tranquilly departed , breathing a gentle sigh . Simplicity , moderation , and solitude were the features of his life .
