Young Jemmy: or, The princely shepherd Being a most pleasant and delightful new song. In blest Arcadia where each shepherd feeds, his numerous flocks, and tunes on slender reeds; his song of love, while the fair nimphs trip round, the chief amongst 'um was young Jemmy found: for he with glances could enslave each heart, but fond ambition made him to depart; the fields to court, led on by such as sought to blast his vertues, which much sorrow brought. To a pleasant new play-house tune. Or, in January last, or, The gowlin. |

| Notes |
There are two versions of this work with the same publication date on EEBO. 1. has 5 woodcuts, 2. has 4 woodcuts. Both of these versions include "6 additional stanzas by another hand" (Worldcat). Additonal titles are "Princely Shepard," "In January Last," and "Gowlin." There is another edition (same publication year) entitled "A most excellent new ballad: to a most excellent new tune, called Young Jamey" which includes only the 4 stanzas written by Behn. Worldcat also has two listings of this work with the publication date "1683?," but there do not appear to be any accessible digital copies of this possible publication (print book listed at the British Library). |
