THE OLD MILL,

roof
And the moss Oh its rottng caves.

And the rushing waters sounds.
Ana see the black floats rise and fall
As the wheel goes slowly round
RODE there often when ! was young,
with my grist on the horse before,
And talked with Nelly, the millers girl,
As ] waited my turn at the door,
And while she tossed her ringlets brown
And flrted and chatted so free.
The wheel might stop or the wheel
might go,
II was all the same to me.
TVS twenty years since last stood
on the spot where | stand today
And Nelly is wed. and the miller is dead
And the mill and I are gray
But both I'LL We fall into ruin and wreck.
To our fortune OF toll are bound
Ana the man goes aud the stream flows.
And the wheel moves slowly round
