eleven o'clock
Quick ! ' Noah started up without saying a word ; for the Jew was in a state of such intense excitement that it infected him . They left the house stealthily , and hurrying through a labyrinth of streets , arrived at length before a public-house , which Noah recognised as the same in which he had slept , on the night of his arrival in London . It was past eleven o'clock , and the door was closed . It opened softly on its hinges as Fagin gave a low whistle . They entered , without noise ; and the door was closed behind them . Scarcely venturing to whisper , but substituting dumb show for words , Fagin , and the young Jew who had admitted them , pointed out the pane of glass to Noah , and signed to him to climb up and observe the person in the adjoining room .
