A Tale of Two Cities
by Charles Dickens (adapted excerpt)
The story takes place during the time of the French Revolution, the storming of the Bastille in Paris. During the riots, Doctor Manette's daughter, Lucy
Darnay, learned thar the prison had been attacked and the political prisoners held there, including her husband, were in danger.
Here Doctor Manette had ascertained through the registers on the table that his son-in-law was among the detainees. He had pleaded hard to the
Tribunal, in which some members were asleep and some awake, for his life and freedom. In the first frantic greetings lavished on himself as a noted
sufferer under the overthrown system, it had been accorded to him to have Charles Darnay brought before the lawless Court, and examined. That
he seemed on the point of being at once released when the tide in his favor met with some unexplained check (not intelligible to the Doctor), which
led to a few words of secret conference. That, the man sitting as President had then informed Doctor Manette that the defendant must remain in
custody, but should, for his sake, be held blameless in safe custody.
Which two details in the text reveal to the reader that Doctor Manette has a good reputation with members of the Tribunal?
in the first frantic greetings lavished on himself as a noted sufferer under the overthrown
system
"Here Doctor Manette had ascertained through the registers on the table, that his son-in-law
was among the detainees
"But should, for his sake, be held blameless in safe custody"
Dit had been accorded to him to have Charles Darnay brought before the lawless Court
"He seemed on the point of being at once released, when the tide in his favor met with some
unexplained check
