ten o'clock
She slept . Outside , in the dusky dark , was one who padded up and down the grass on noiseless feet , passing and repassing the window , with an eye for the narrow chink of light . She slept for a very short time . Towards ten o'clock she awoke . Collecting herself luxuriously , she was seen to face her facts again . Evidently they held her eyes waking ; they were dreadfully there , still unresolved or still unpalatable . Before them now she plainly quailed .
