The seamstress (A Tale of Two Cities)
The seamstress is a fictional character in Charles Dickens's ''A Tale of Two Cities.''
==Overview==
The seamstress is an unnamed twenty-year-old woman featured as a desperately poor peasant accused of plotting against the French Republic by Robespierre's Committee of Public Safety during the Terror of the French Revolution in 1793.〔Dickens 2003, p. 365 (Book 3, Chapter 13)〕
Found guilty of this imaginary crime, she was condemned to death by beheading. She became acquainted with Charles Darnay during their imprisonments in La Force Prison, and was the only person to recognize Sydney Carton as an imposter as the two of them rode to their execution together.〔〔Dickens 2003, p. 366 (Book 3, Chapter 13)〕
She spends her last moments conversing with Carton noting that he provides strength to her. The Republic executes her as the 22nd of fifty-two to be killed that day. Sydney Carton dies directly after her.〔Dickens 2003, p.385 (Book 3, Chapter 15)〕
