eleven
o'clock at night
said Jost , `` well , I speak for that kind of work ; sitting in a chaise behind a horse . It 's another part of speech to have to work with one 's hands , as we do . '' `` The doctor has to work with his hands too , I 'm sure of that . And besides , we have our evenings to ourselves , while he may be kept at it till eleven o'clock at night , as he is this evening , and later . '' `` Oh drop all this stupid talk and give us an answer ; yes or no . Will you be a fool and go on pricking your fingers over your work , or will you join me and have things comfortable without working at all ? Anybody but you would be grateful to me for the chance I offer you .
