Light vs dark

          He uses light and dark to set the tone hopeful on Lucie and Dr. Manette's relationship. In A Tale of Two Citties Dr. Manette says,"You can bear a little more light"(Dickens, 30). He says this b/c the light is Mr. Lorry and Lucie when they walk in brightening his mood. This also shows that the future will be better. The narrator says,"He turned her full to the light, and looked at her"(Dickens, 33). The narrator says this b/c he wants to show how he loves her and she loves him. Finally, In the book Lucie says,"O sir, at another time you shall know my name . . . Kiss me, Kiss me"(Dickens, 34). This shows how she loves him and how she wants it to work. That is how he sets the tone hopeful.
