On the day when Charles Darnay was at last called for his trial,Lucie and Dr Manette hurried to Tellson's Bank to tell Mr Lorry. As theyarrived, a man got up and disappeared into another room. They did not see whoit was, but in fact it was Sydney Carton, just arrived from London.
There were five judges in the Tribunal, and the trials were shortand simple. The voices of truth, honesty, and calm reason were never heard atthese trials, and most of the prisoners were sent to the Guillotine, whichpleased the noisy crowds. Fifteen prisoners were called before Darnay that day,and in no more than an hour and a half, all of them had been condemned todeath.
'Charles Evrémonde, who is called Darnay. '
As Darnay walked in front of the judges, he tried to remember thecareful advice that Dr Manette had given him.
在查尔斯•代尔那最终被审讯的那天,路茜和马内特医生匆忙到台尔森银行告诉了劳里先生。他们到达时,有一个人站起身来消失在另一个房间里。他们没有看清那是谁,但实际上他是西得尼•卡登,他刚从伦敦来。
审判团由5名法官组成,审判很简短。在这些审判中,真实、诚实、合理的申辩根本不被听取,因而大多数罪犯都被送上了断头台,以取悦那些吵吵嚷嚷的人们。那天在代尔那之前已有15个人被审讯,在不到一个半小时的时间中,他们便都被判处了死刑。
“查尔斯•埃弗蒙,那个称作代尔那的人。”
在走到法官面前时,代尔那尽力去回想马内特医生给他的周详的忠告。
