Two o'clock on Sunday
Mr. Snaffle , at the club meeting , made the very same proposal to Mr. Woolsey that the perfumer had made ; and stated that as Eglantine was going to ride Hemperor , Woolsey , at least , ought to mount too . But he was met by the same modest refusal on the tailor 's part , who stated that he had never mounted a horse yet , and preferred greatly the use of a coach . Eglantine 's character as a `` swell '' rose greatly with the club that evening . Two o'clock on Sunday came : the two beaux arrived punctually at the door to receive the two smiling ladies . `` Bless us , Mr. Eglantine ! '' said Miss Crump , quite struck by him , `` I never saw you look so handsome in your life . '' He could have flung his arms around her neck at the compliment .
