有两种方法，使人们可以到达旧斯通米尔。一，从岔路由线而与草地，繁花似锦的银行蛇之间的围墙边的伤口，以及零零落落的淡褐色不规则的团块和蓝色的山毛榉，山茱萸和刺灌木，超越于1粮食侧领域延伸只是标题这项光明日上午，并在另一边的干草领域的混合提摩太和红三叶，颜色和香水，而沿蛇栅栏，直到它来到一个珀泰托帕奇跑慷慨长条形的，反过来，导致其中一个果园里开始下拉到米尔山谷。

    There were two ways by which one could get to the Old Stone Mill. One, from the sideroad by a lane which, edged with grassy, flower- decked banks, wound between snake fences, along which straggled irregular clumps of hazel and blue beech, dogwood and thorn bushes, and beyond which stretched on one side fields of grain just heading out this bright June morning, and on the other side a long strip of hay fields of mixed timothy and red clover, generous of colour and perfume, which ran along the snake fence till it came to a potato patch which, in turn, led to an orchard where the lane began to drop down to the Mill valley.
    At the crest of the hill travellers with even the merest embryonic aesthetic taste were forced to pause. For there the valley with its sweet loveliness lay in full view before them. Far away to the right, out of an angle in the woods, ran the Mill Creek to fill the pond which brimmed gleaming to the green bank of the dam. Beyond the pond a sloping grassy sward showed green under an open beech and maple woods. On the hither side of the pond an orchard ran down hill to the water's edge, and at the nearer corner of the dam, among a clump of ancient willows, stood the Old Stone Mill, with house attached, and across the mill yard the shed and barn, all neat as a tidy housewife's kitchen. To the left of the mill, with its green turf-clad dam and placid gleaming pond, wandered off green fields of many shading colours, through which ran the Mill Creek, foaming as if enraged that it should have been even for a brief space paused in its flow to serve another's will. Then, beyond the many-shaded fields, woods again, spruce and tamarack, where the stream entered, and maple and beech on the higher levels. That was one way to the mill, the way the farmers took with their grist or their oats for old Charley Boyle to grind.
