The Thames and tributary rills, + 

Here they do drive numerous mills, + 

Enabling millers to compete + 

To pay high price for oats and wheat. + 

Here streams do drive many a wheel + 

For to grind both flour and oatmeal, + 

And town will extend its boundaries + 

With its enterprising foundries. + 

For fine pianos town is famed + 

And highest rank for them is claimed, + 

And brighter days for it yet dawns + 

With its grand mansions and fine lawns, + 

And it has now the title grand + 

The capital of dairyland. + 
