five minutes to five
What a name to be elegantly engraved upon two glazed cards , tied together with a piece of white satin ribbon ! ` The Honourable Mrs. Augustus Fitz-Edward Fitz-John Fitz-Osborne ! ' The thought was transport . ` It 's five minutes to five , ' said Mr. Malderton , looking at his watch : ` I hope he 's not going to disappoint us . ' ` There he is ! ' exclaimed Miss Teresa , as a loud double-knock was heard at the door . Everybody endeavoured to look -- as people when they particularly expect a visitor always do -- as if they were perfectly unsuspicious of the approach of anybody .
