two o’clock in the morning
`` If you mean your plan to succeed , do not let her see you in that carriage . This evening I will give my niece a little laudanum , and while she sleeps , we will dress her in such clothes as she wore at Studzianka , and put her in your traveling-carriage . I will follow you in a berline . '' Soon after two o'clock in the morning , the young Countess was lifted into the carriage , laid on the cushions , and wrapped in a coarse blanket . A few peasants held torches while this strange elopement was arranged . A sudden cry rang through the silence of night , and Philip and the doctor , turning , saw Genevieve . She had come out half-dressed from the low room where she slept .
