Micah Clarke
Authorship not stated
You are Micah Clarke, fishing off the Isle of Wight when a Dutch brig fires on a drowning man; you and Reuben haul him aboard. He is Decimus Saxon, carrying sealed letters for Monmouth's rebellion against King James, and he talks his way into your father's cottage at Havant under a hail of suspicion. The letter proves three days old, urging supporters to horse, and sets your father's old wound against your mother's fear. Before Saxon's invitation can be settled, a rider brings word that Monmouth has landed at Lyme.
