Set against the backdrop of Bridgewater, the story follows Peter Blood, a bachelor with a medical background, as he observes the bustling street below. The townspeople, energized by a recent sermon from the Duke's chaplain, gather for a potentially tumultuous event at Castle Field. Armed with an array of makeshift weapons, including clubs and scythes, these men, adorned with green boughs, hint at a brewing unrest. The narrative captures a moment of tension and the absurdity of their preparations, reflecting the political climate of the time.
