eleven
o'clock
Then in the morning how bright and light-hearted she was ! Anneli could not understand this change that had suddenly come over her young mistress . She said little , but there was a happy light on her face ; she sung `` Du Schwert an meiner Linken '' in snatches , as she was dressing her hair ; and she presented Anneli with a necklace of Turkish silver coins . She was down at South Kensington Museum considerably before eleven o'clock . She idly walked Anneli through the various rooms , pointing out to her this and that ; and as the little Dresden maid had not been in the Museum before , her eyes were wide open at the sight of such beautiful things . She was shown masses of rich tapestry and cases of Japanese lacquer-work ; she was shown collections of ancient jewellery and glass ; she went by sunny English landscapes , and was told the story of solemn cartoons . In the midst of it all George Brand appeared ; and the little German girl , of her own accord , and quite as deftly as Madame Potecki , devoted herself to the study of some screens of water-colors , just as if she were one of the Royal Academy pupils .
