five o'clock
Such a happy afternoon followed ! The Domine was in a delightful mood , Jamie recited for the first time `` How Horatio Kept the Bridge , '' and Margot was as busy as her weak , old fingers would let her be . With the Domine 's approval , Christine showed her letter to Roberta , and they , too , held a little triumph over the good , clever girl , for it was not vanity that induced her confidence , it was that desire for human sympathy , which even Divinity feels , or He would not ask it , and Himself prompt its offering . Soon after five o'clock they had a cup of tea together , and Roberta 's cab was waiting , and the fortunate day was over . Roberta was sorry to go away . She said she had had one of the happiest days of her life . She left her own little silk crochet bag with Margot , and gave her gladly her pretty silver hook with its ivory handle , and the cotton she had with her .
