ten o'clock
Nancy was used to having her own way , and for years she had been used to going off with Edward , ratting , rabbiting , catching salmon down at Fordingbridge , district-visiting of the sort that Edward indulged in , or calling on the tenants . And at Nauheim she and Edward had always gone up to the Casino alone in the evenings -- at any rate , whenever Florence did not call for his attendance . It shows the obviously innocent nature of the regard of those two that even Florence had never had any idea of jealousy . Leonora had cultivated the habit of going to bed at ten o'clock . I do n't know how she managed it , but , for all the time they were at Nauheim , she contrived never to let those two be alone together , except in broad daylight , in very crowded places . If a Protestant had done that it would no doubt have awakened a self-consciousness in the girl . But Catholics , who have always reservations and queer spots of secrecy , can manage these things better .
