The happy party returned to Redmead. When the evening came on, the blinds drawn, the lamps lit, and the friends were all together, Paul could not help thinking there was just one thing missing to complete the day's experience.
"When I came here that night and listened at the door, you were singing," he said.
"Singing what?" asked Mrs. Moncrief.
"'Now the day is over.'"
"Happy thought! Let us have it again!" exclaimed Mr. Moncrief.
Mrs. Moncrief went to the piano, and heartily they sang:
"Now the day is over, Night is drawing nigh, Shadows of the evening Steal across the sky.
Through the long night watches, May Thine angels spread Their white wings above me, Watching round my bed."
Of a surety that fervent appeal had been answered. G.o.d had indeed guarded the boys through the "long night watches" at school, and through much trial and temptation had brought them safely together under the same hospitable roof.
