midnight
We were lodged with the citizens , who were afraid of us and gave us all we asked . The Twenty-seventh returned in the evening and was quartered in the old chateau . We were very tired . After smoking two or three pipes together , chatting about our glory , Zébédé , Klipfel and I went together to the shop of a joiner and slept on a heap of shavings , and remained there until midnight , when they beat the reveille . We rose ; the joiner gave us some brandy , and we went out . The rain was falling in torrents . That night the battalion went to bivouac before the village of Clépen , two hours ' march from Weissenfels .
