six in the morning
Nobody thought she was ill as she said nothing about it herself , but lay pale and placid , giving no trouble to anybody . Christening day came at last and it was as lovely as the Prince himself . All the people in the Palace were beautifully dressed in the clothes which the Queen had given them . By six in the morning all the royal household had dressed itself in its very best ; and then the little Prince was dressed in his magnificent christening robe ; which he did not like at all , but kicked and screamed like any common baby . When he had calmed down , they carried him to the bed where the Queen lay . She kissed and blessed him , and then she gave him up with a gentle smile , saying she `` hoped he would be very good , that it would be a very nice christening , and all the guests would enjoy themselves , '' and turned peacefully over on her bed . She was a very uncomplaining person -- the Queen , and her name was Dolorez .
