two in the morning
There was Dexter -- so like him ! -- hopping about on his hands -LRB- did you ever see it ? the most grotesquely horrible exhibition you can imagine ! -RRB- -- there was Dexter , hopping about , and looking through keyholes , evidently in search of the person who had left her room at two in the morning ; and no doubt taking Phoebe for her mistress , seeing that she had forgotten to take her mistress 's cloak off her shoulders . The next morning , early , Helena came back in a hired carriage from Edinburgh , with a hat and mantle borrowed from her English friends . She left the carriage in the road , and got into the house by way of the garden -- without being discovered , this time , by Dexter or by anybody . Clever and daring , was n't it ?
