For her the bells toll

The bells at the local church chime at every hour all day and all night. Usually during the night I can ignore them, but they do a particularly loud and musical chime at 6 a.m.
It is the official wake up bell for the community.
I am looking forward to sleeping through it.

Equally loud, but significantly longer is the chime at 8 p.m. Historically, this was the time when all the girls in the village had to be home.
My guess is the long chime before the hour marks was to give the girls a chance to get home.
So the tradition has stayed in place, the bells sound amazing, but the girls get to ignore it.
