章节摘录
The obscurity was so difficult to penetratethat Mr Lorry, picking his way over the well-wornTurkey carpet, supposed Miss Manette to be, for themoment, in some adjacent room, until, having gotpast the two tall candles, he saw to receive him by thetable between them and the young lady of not morethan seventeen, in a riding-cloak, and still holding herstraw travelling-hat by its ribbon in her hand. As his eyes rested on a short, slight, pretty figure, a quantityof golden hair, a pair of blue eyes that met his ownwith an inquiring look, and a forehead with a singularcapacity (remembering how young and smooth it was),of lifting and knitting itself into an expression that wasnot quite one of perplexity, or wonder, or alarm ormerely of a bright fixed attention, though is includedall the four expressions——as his eyes rested on thesethings, a sudden vivid likeness passed before him, ofa child whom he had held in his arms on the passageacross that very Channel, one cold time, when thehail drifted heavily and the sea ran high. The likenesspassed away, like a breath along the surface of thegaunt pier-glass behind her, on the frame of which, a hospital procession of negro cupids, several head-lessand all cripples, were offering black baskets of DeadSea fruit to black divinities of the feminine gender ——and he made his formal bow to Miss Manette. "Pray take a seat, sir." In a very clear andpleasant young voice; a little foreign in its accent, but avery little indeed. "I kiss your hand, miss," said Mr. Lorry, withthe manners of an earlier date, as he made his formalbow again, and took his seat.
