    RE: Madame DeFarge

    (Meaning no impertinence here)

    People! Henceforth, when Mme sweeps into the room and settles

    HERSELF into her most comfortable armchair, gathers her lace

    and veils around her, surveying all, WE ARE TO LISTEN.

    I know I will. And when she utters words of support for

    He, Whose Name Must Not Be Spoken------------

    We turn discreetly away. And allow Mme DeFarge to

    compose HERSELF again.

    So mote it be.
