Gently Jemmy
SIR JAMES MACKINTOSH invited Dr. Parr to take a drive in his gig. The
horse became restive. Gently, Jemmy, says the doctor, don't irritate
him; always soothe your horse, Jemmy. You'll do better without me. Let
me down, Jemmy. Once on terra-firma, the doctor's view of the case
was changed. Now, Jemmy, touch him up. Never let a horse get the better
of you. Touch him up, conquer him, don't spare him; and now, I'll leave
you to manage him--I'll walk back.
