six o'clock
Roger returned about one o'clock . He moved quietly , as if in order not to disturb his wife , but she heard the cautious closing of his door . She did not try or wish to sleep , but lay on her bed , waiting for day . After six o'clock Beverley could lie still no longer . She stole into her bathroom , and bathed in cold water . But she felt as utterly spent after her bath as before . This morning she did penance by putting on a tailor-made , white linen suit , of a slightly severe cut , and made her toilet without ringing for Léontine .
