There was no one bidden to the marriage but Mr. Lorry; there was

even to be no bridesmaid but the gaunt Miss Pross. The marriage

was to make no change in their place of residence; they had been

able to extend it, by taking to themselves the upper rooms

formerly belonging to the apocryphal invisible lodger, and they

desired nothing more.

Doctor Manette was very cheerful at the little supper. They were

only three at table, and Miss Pross made the third. He regretted

that Charles was not there; was more than half disposed to object

to the loving little plot that kept him away; and drank to him

affectionately.

So, the time came for him to bid Lucie good night, and they

separated. But, in the stillness of the third hour of the

morning, Lucie came downstairs again, and stole into his room;

not free from unshaped fears, beforehand.
