seven o'clock
This is as you say the most attractive room in the house , this is exclusively and especially mine ; but at all times , whether I am absent , or present , you must consider yourself thoroughly welcome , and recollect , all it contains in the book line is at your service . To-morrow I will talk with you about your studies , and examine you in some of your text-books . _ A propos ! _ I take my breakfast alone , before the other members of the family are up , and unless you choose to rise early and join me at the seven o'clock table , you need not be surprised if you do not see me until dinner , which is usually at half-past six . If you require anything that has not been supplied in your room , do not hesitate to ring and order it . Try to feel at home . '' `` Thank you , sir . ''
