People flock to the scene and begin licking up the wine from the ground. In the midst of this chaos a man bends down and with his finger writes on the wall the word “blood”. Symbolizing the blood that would soon cover those streets and the frightening reality of the threat that the common people brought. Dickens shows the desperation of the common people. Right after this scene, in a secret room a daughter is reunited with her ill father. He was imprisoned and the only thing that kept him from fully being overtaken by agony was, a few locks of his wife’s hair. Again, this reiterates the desperation of the peasants and poor and establishes the temperamental state of the country.
