three o'clock
I had not before heard the sound of Princess Amelia 's voice ; imagine , my friend , the sweetest , the most delicious , the most harmonious tones ; in fine , one of those accents which cause the most delicate chords of the soul to vibrate . `` I hope , my dear Henry , that you will remain some time with your aunt , to whom I am greatly attached . I respect her as a mother , as you know , '' said the grand duke kindly to me . `` Come often to see us , familiarly , in the morning , at three o'clock . If we are going out , you can join us in our walk ; you know I have always loved you , because you have one of the most noble hearts . '' `` I do not know how to express to your royal highness my gratitude for the kind reception you condescend to bestow on me . '' `` To prove to me your gratitude , then , '' said the prince , smiling , `` ask your cousin for the second contra-dance ; the first belongs of right to the archduke . ''
