It was still raining as we left the marsh village, the drops pattering on the reeds and dappling the pools, but it lifted within the hour and gradually a wan, milky moon glowed dimly behind the thinning clouds that scudded from the west Our path crossed black ditches on plank bridges, passed by the intricate woven wickerwork of willow eel traps, and snaked incomprehensibly across blank shining morasses where our guide would mutter incantations against the marsh spirits.
Aún llovía cuando salimos del pueblo del pantano, las gotas golpeaban los juncos y moteaban los charcos pero, al cabo de una hora cesó y, poco a poco, la luna, lechosa y lánguida, empezó a brillar tenuemente tras las nubes ligeras que la brisa arrastraba desde poniente. Nuestro camino cruzaba negras zanjas sobre puentes de tablones, pasaba por las intrincadas urdimbres de mimbre de las trampas para anguilas y serpenteaba incomprensiblemente entre relucientes ciénagas donde el guía musitaba encantamientos contra los espíritus del pantano.
