about ten o’clock
I learned that , after all , the woman 's was the stronger will . I was put to bed and declared to have a fever , and given sulphur and treacle , and kept out of the paternal paths for a mournful day of enforced rest . On the Monday following I went to school as usual , but not without fear of Dove . When we were all busy , about ten o'clock , I was amazed to hear my father 's voice . He stood before the desk , and addressed Master Dove in a loud voice , meaning , I suppose , to be heard by all of us . `` David Dove , '' he said , `` my son hath been guilty of disrespect to thee , and to thy office . I do not say he has lied , for it is my belief that thou art truly an unjust and cruel beast .
