four o’clock
Then I could be permitted to prove my fidelity to you . I now see that I was a fool . Yet in parting I will still beg of you to avoid the unfavorable impression of this dinner . The bill of exchange will be presented at four o'clock , and the bearer will not be satisfied with the excuse of your non-payment on account of dinner-company . You will be obliged to settle at once or be arrested . I have learned this from your chief creditor , and I begged him to have forbearance for you . I shall now justify him in showing you none , as you do not deserve it !
