misty passage from the question

answer :

the best summary of this reading passage from "a tale of two cities" by charles dickens is "yet, monseigneur had slowly found that vulgar embarrassments crept into his affairs, both private and public; and he had, as to both classes of affairs, allied himself perforce with a farmer-general." it describes that state of private and public affairs of the monseigneur perfectly.
