JEMMIBULLERO: A fragment of an ode of Orpheus;
Freely translated from the original tongue, and adapted to
British music. By Peter Minim, Esq;. . .
I.
And Jemmy is a silly dog, and Jemmy is a tool,
And Jemmy is a stupid cur, and Jemmy is a fool,
And Jemmy is a madman, and Jemmy is an ass,
And Jemmy has a leaden head, & forehead spread with brass.
+ Sing titiuniti, tumtititi, tititumti, tee,
And tumtititi, titiuti, tumtiprosodee.
. . . [12 more verses, with refrains]
