Canadian Thames Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFG HHIG| Westward it winds past each town | A |
| Growing broader as it flows down | A |
| Onward it glides never weary | B |
| Meandering so soft and cheery | B |
| - | |
| The sunbeams on the waters glance | C |
| Skipping about in silvery dance | C |
| From morn till eve the cattle feed | D |
| 'Neath lofty elms along the mead | D |
| - | |
| And on its banks in warrior pride | E |
| The brave Tecumseh fought and died | E |
| Peace and prosperity now reigns | F |
| Along the fertile vale of Thames | G |
| - | |
| Now soon the waters meet and pair | H |
| With the wavelets of St Clair | H |
| As maids when wed do lose their names | I |
| No longer is it called the Thames | G |
