Question
from a tale of two cities by charles dickens monseigneur, one of the great lords in power at the court, held his fortnightly reception in his grand hotel in paris. monseigneur was in his inner room, his sanctuary of sanctuaries, the holiest of holies to the crowd of worshippers in the suite of rooms without. monseigneur was about to take his chocolate. monseigneur could swallow a great many things with ease and was by some few sullen minds supposed to be rather rapidly swallowing france. but, his morning’s chocolate could not so much as get into the throat of monseigneur, without the aid of four strong men besides the cook. yes, it took four men, all four ablaze with gorgeous decoration, and the chief of them unable to exist with fewer than two gold watches in his pocket, emulative of the noble and chaste fashion set by monseigneur, to conduct the happy chocolate to monseigneur’s lips. one lacquey carried the chocolate pot into the sacred presence; a second, milled and frothed the chocolate; a third, presented the favoured napkin; a fourth (he of the two gold watches), poured the chocolate out. it was impossible for monseigneur to dispense with one of these attendants on the chocolate and hold his high place in the admiring heavens. deep would have been the blot upon his crest if his chocolate had been ignobly waited on by only three men; he must have fainted of two. drag each tile to the correct box. match each detail from the passage with the statement that best explains how it develops the character of the monseigneur in the cultural setting. \a third, presented the favoured napkin\ \one of the great lords in power at the court\ \monseigneur was about to take his chocolate.\ this detail reveals how the character expects to be treated. this detail reveals the character’s access to luxury items. this detail reveals the character’s social status.
