On the slope of the hill
Stands the old water mill
Win it's rafters decadent and rotten.
Now an idle old shed,
The wheel, listless and dead,
And the men who once ran 1t forgotten.
o, the flowers l knew, how graAdly they
grew
By the old water mill
On the slope Of the hill
Here the choiresters sung
AS they merrily swung
With the swish and the sway Of tho
breeze;
And the wind that blew
On the flowers I knew
Shook silvery songs from the boushs Of
the trees.
But the songs are all old, the tales are
all told,
There is naught but the mill
On the slope Of the hill.
When the death wind blows
On the red flaming rose
Waving here with its petals Of gladnss.,
Flaring here in the sun,
A red emblem Of fun,
And the symbol Of mirth and its madness,
Put me here by the brook, in a cool shady
nook,
On the slope of the hill
By the old water mill.
