Chapter 1
IN MOONFLEET VILLAGE
So sleeps the pride of former days
—More
The village of Moonfleet lies half a mile from the sea on the right or
west bank of the Fleet stream. This rivulet, which is so narrow as it
passes the houses that I have known a good jumper clear it without a
pole, broadens out into salt marshes below the village, and loses itself at
last in a lake of brackish water. The lake is good for nothing except seafowl,
herons, and oysters, and forms such a place as they call in the Indies
a lagoon
