First line:
It did not take Lil-Umbra long with her fifteen-year-old legs and her slender figure to scamper down the quarter-of-mile avenue of over-arching elms that led due eastward from the Fortress of Roque, where she lived, to the ancient circle of Druidic stones that had come to be known as "Castrum Sanctum".
The author is a descendant of the poet William Cowper.
The author's father was vicar of Montacute, Somerset for 32 years.
