eight o'clock
Six quiet years -LRB- I find I am saying it for the second time -RRB- I had passed at Greenleaf , seeing in those around me , as it might be in a looking-glass , every stage of my own growth and change there , when , one November morning , I received this letter . I omit the date . Old Square , Lincoln 's Inn Madam , Jarndyce and Jarndyce Our clt Mr. Jarndyce being abt to rece into his house , under an Order of the Ct of Chy , a Ward of the Ct in this cause , for whom he wishes to secure an elgble compn , directs us to inform you that he will be glad of your serces in the afsd capacity . We have arrngd for your being forded , carriage free , pr eight o'clock coach from Reading , on Monday morning next , to White Horse Cellar , Piccadilly , London , where one of our clks will be in waiting to convey you to our offe as above . We are , Madam , Your obedt Servts , Kenge and Carboy Miss Esther Summerson Oh , never , never , never shall I forget the emotion this letter caused in the house ! It was so tender in them to care so much for me , it was so gracious in that father who had not forgotten me to have made my orphan way so smooth and easy and to have inclined so many youthful natures towards me , that I could hardly bear it . Not that I would have had them less sorry -- I am afraid not ; but the pleasure of it , and the pain of it , and the pride and joy of it , and the humble regret of it were so blended that my heart seemed almost breaking while it was full of rapture .
