ten o'clock
It was folly to spoil his enjoyment of country such as this by dreaming impossible opportunities . The Warricombes could be nothing to him ; to meet with Buckland would only revive the shame long ago outlived . After resting for a few minutes he turned back , passed the silent house again , delighted himself with the wide view , and so into the city once more , where he began to seek the remnants of its old walls . The next morning was Sunday , and he had planned to go by the Plymouth train to a station whence he could reach Start Point ; but his mood was become so unsettled that ten o'clock , when already he should have been on his journey , found him straying about the Cathedral Close . A mere half-purpose , a vague wavering intention , which might at any moment be scattered by common sense , drew his steps to the door of the Cathedral , where people were entering for morning service ; he moved idly within sight of the carriages which drew up . Several had discharged their freightage of tailoring and millinery , when two vehicles , which seemed companions , stopped at the edge of the pavement , and from the second alighted the young ladies whom Godwin had yesterday observed ; their male companion , however , was different . The carriage in advance also contained four persons : a gentleman of sixty , his wife , a young girl , and the youth of yesterday .
