When the hoot of the owl comes over the hill	A
At twelve o'clock when the night is still	A
And pale on the pools where the creek frogs croon	B
Glimmering gray is the light o' the moon	B
And under the willows where waters lie	C
The torch of the firefly wanders by	C
They say that the miller walks here walks here	D
All covered with chaff with his crooked staff	E
And his horrible hobble and hideous laugh	E
The old lame miller hung many a year	F
When the hoot of the owl comes over the hill	A
He walks alone by the rotting mill	A
	-
When the bark of the fox comes over the hill	A
At twelve o'clock when the night is shrill	A
And faint on the ways where the crickets creep	G
The starlight fails and the shadows sleep	G
And under the willows that toss and moan	H
The glow worm kindles its lanthorn lone	H
They say that a woman floats dead floats dead	I
In a weedy space that the lilies lace	J
A curse in her eyes and a smile on her face	J
The miller's young wife with a gash in her head	I
When the bark of the fox comes over the hill	A
She floats alone by the rotting mill	A
	-
When the howl of the hound comes over the hill	A
At twelve o'clock when the night is ill	A
And the thunder mutters and forests sob	K
And the fox fire glows like the lamp of a Lob	K
And under the willows that gloom and glance	L
The will o' the wisps hold a devils' dance	L
They say that that crime is re acted again	M
And each cranny and chink of the mill doth wink	N
With the light o' hell or the lightning's blink	N
And a woman's shrieks come wild through the rain	O
When the howl of the hound comes over the hill	A
That murder returns to the rotting mill	A
