noon
It is good to know that he is not jealous of my great fortune . To-night we spared each other the parting words . But to-morrow they must be spoken , when Aunt Mary and Beatrice come to see me sail away on the French liner . The ship leaves at noon , and ten days later I shall be in Havre . Ye gods , to think that in ten days I shall see Paris ! And then , the Mediterranean , the Suez Canal , the Indian Ocean , Singapore , and , at last , the yellow flags and black dragons of the enemy . It can not last long , this row .
