midnight
The Professor moved over beside Jarvis , and the wander tales began . Bambi fluttered about like a scarlet tanager , tantalizing Jarvis with a desire to catch her in his hand and hold her still . At eleven the Professor said good night . Immediately Bambi led the talk to their proposed work , and held it there , firmly , until midnight chimed . Jarvis told her of the sale of the `` Street Songs '' to Strong 's magazine , and announced that one hundred dollars of it was to be set down in the Black Maria account . She laughed and congratulated him . Finally she rose .
