1 On the homeward way was he, j And across the dike while the sun was up i An hour above the sea. J He was stopping now to gather flowers, ' Now listening to the sound, : As the angry waters dashed themselves j Against their narrow bound. ] "Ah! well for us, " said Peter, j "That the gates are good and strong, I And my father tends them carefully, j Or they would not hold you long! ' You're a wicked sea, " said Peter; ■ "I know why you fret and chafe; You would like to spoil our lands and homes...; ; But our sluices keep you safe!" But hark! Through the noise of waters i Comes a low, clear, trickling sound; i And the child's face pales with terror, i And his blossoms drop to the ground. J He is up the bank in a moment, j And, stealing through the sand, ] He sees a stream not yet so large ; As his slender, childish hand. | 'T is a leak in the dike ! He is but a boy, j Unused to fearful scenes; j But, young as he is, he has learned to know, 1 The dreadful thing that means. ! 234 Historical Legends and Stories A leak in the dike !
