The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Dracula by Bram Stoker: which either of them was to sound in case of any emergency.
When they had retired, Quincey, Godalming, and I arranged
that we should sit up, dividing the night between us,
and watch over the safety of the poor stricken lady.
The first watch falls to Quincey, so the rest of us shall
be off to bed as soon as we can.
Godalming has already turned in, for his is the second watch.
Now that my work is done I, too, shall go to bed.
