    The first incident that Dickens has portrayed to show the power of love was, Lucie restored love and life to Dr. Manette, who has suffered a lot from his 18 years imprisonment. The quote which showed how lovingly was Lucie to her father and how her father was comforted by her were with hands which were extending towards him, trembling with eagerness to lay the spectral face upon her warm young breast, and love it back to life and hope and his cold white head mingled with her radiant hair, which warmed and lighted it as though it were the light of Freedom shining on him. After 18 years of darkness, Doctor Manette was restored to life by her daughter, Lucie. With her love, it enabled him to regain his confidents and hope, and it became significantly important later when Lucie met Darnay and fell in love with him.…
