There are two or three more things I wish you would procure for me.

I want a man's coat and cap, rough ones, such as a burglar might wear.

You see, if by any chance I am met by those women going downstairs, or returning to my room, I must give them a start.

Dressed up like that, and with a piece of crape over my face, I should be taken for a burglar.

I don't think Miss Penfold is very easily frightened; but at the same time I fancy I might alarm her into returning to her room, and should be able to get back to mine before the house was roused.
