DEAR Sia,—i was pleased to road that
"The Lesson of the Water Mill" had at last
been credited to the proper author, Miss
(Sarah Doudney. I render a copy of the poem
SSA Was first published eighteen years ago,
in the " Churchman's Fami,y Magazine. It
will be seen that the second verse (usually omit-
ted) makes the other verses more expressive.
I think, too, the poem,. as originally published,
showuue, that Mise Doudney., ter*. ggcod
Epglieb—a fact we might be inolined .4O 0,04
if we only had the words as they are- set to-
, Music or published in the newepapere.
Yours very truly,

The Rectory, Clint,m, March 11,
The Leaeon of the 1Vatei• Mill.
Liston to the water -mill '
Through the livelong day
How the clicking of its wheel
Wears the hours away !
Langtudly the autumn wind
Stirs the greenwood leaves;
Prom the fields the reapers sing
Binding up the sheaves,
And a proverb hauute my mind
As a spell is cast —
"The mill cannot grind
With the water that is past,"
2 Autumn leayes revive no more
Leaves that once are shed ;
And the sickle cannot reap
Corn once gathered.
And the ruffled stream flows ou,
Tranquil, deep, and still,
Never gliding back again
To the water -mill.
Truly speaks the proverb old,
With a meauing vast:
"The mill cannot grind
With the water that is past."
3 Take the lesson to thyself,
Loving heart and true;
Golden years are fleeting by
Youth is passing too.
Learn to make the most of life ;
Lose no happy day,
Time will never bring thee hack
Chances swept away.
Leave no tender word unsaid,
Love, while life shall last ;
"The mill cannot grind
With the water`that.is past."
4 Work while yet the daylight shines,
Man of strength and will ;
Never does the streamlet glide
Useless by the mill,
Wilt not till the morrow's sun
Beams upon thy way;
A11 that thou eanet call thine own
Lies in thy " to -day"
Power and intellect and health
May not always last;
"The mill cannot grind
With the water that is past.'''
6 Oh, the wasted hours of life
That have drifted by !
Ob, the good that migAht have been
Lost without a sigh;
Love that we might once have saved
By a single word,
Thoughts oonceived, but never panned,
Perishing unheard.
Take the proverb to•thine heart,
Take, and hold it fast
"The mill cannotgrend •
with the water that is past."
