Is that his child?" said Madame Defarge, stopping in her work for the fust time, and pointing her knitting-needle at little Lucie as if it were the finger of Fate. ¡¡¡¡"Yes, madame," answered Mr. Lorry; "this is our poor prisoner's darling daughter, and only child." ¡¡¡¡The shadow attendant on Madame Defarge and her party seemed to fall so threatening and dark on the child, that her mother instinctively kneeled on the ground beside her, and held her to her breast.

At the break of the poop he reeled, raised one hand to his eyes with the familiar brushing gesture, and fell down the steps, still on his feet, to the main-deck, across which he staggered, falling and flinging his arms out for support. He regained his balance by the steerage companionway, and stood there dizzily for a space, when he suddenly crumpled up and collapsed, his legs bending under him as he sank to the deck.
