As Carton walked along the street thinking sadly of Lucie's new grief, he saw a man whose face and figure seemed familiar. Following, he soon recognized him as the English spy, Barsad, whose false testimony, years before in London, had come so near convicting Darnay when he was tried for treason. AS CARTON WALKED ALONG THE STREET THINKING SADLY OF LUCY'S NEW GRIEF HE SAW A MAN WHOSE FACE AND FIGURE SEEMED FAMILIAR FOLLOWING HE SOON RECOGNIZED HIM AS THE ENGLISH SPY BARSAD WHOSE FALSE TESTIMONY YEARS BEFORE IN LONDON HAD COME SO NEAR CONVINCING DARNAY WHEN HE WAS TRIED FOR TREASON
plauded it. When he was acquitted they were quite as pleased as if he had been condemned to be beheaded, and put him in a great chair and carried him home in triumph to Lucie. There was only one there, perhaps, who did not rejoice at the result, and that was the cold, cruel wife of the wine seller, Madame Defarge, who had knitted the name "Evrémonde" so many times into her knitting. III SYDNEY CARTON'S SACRIFICE That same night of his release all the happiness of Darnay and Lucie was suddenly broken. Soldiers came and again arrested him. Defarge and his wife were the accusers this time, and he was to be retried. The first one to bring this fresh piece of bad news to Mr. Lorry was Sydney Carton, the reckless and dissipated young lawyer. Probably he had heard, in London, of Lucie's trouble, and out of his love for her, which he always carried hidden in his heart, had come to Paris to try to aid her husband. He had arrived only to hear, at the same time, of the acquittal and the rearrest.
