two in the morning
But it was more likely that this man was an English sentry . I crept nearer still , and the man stopped in front of the lighted window , so that I could see him . No ; it was no soldier , but a priest . I wondered what such a man could be doing there at two in the morning . Was he French or English ? If he were one of the household I might take him into my confidence . If he were English he might ruin all my plans .
