Synopsis

James Augustus St. John (1795-1875) was a British journalist, author and traveller.  Born in Wales, the son of a shoemaker, he began his career as a journalist writing for various newspapers in London. He lived some years on the Continent. His books, Journal of a Residence in Normandy and Lives of Celebrated Travellers (3 vols.) were published in 1830. In 1832 he visited Egypt and Nubia, resulting in travel books, published under the titles, Egypt and Mohammed Ali, or Travels in the Valley of the Nile (2 vols., 1834), Egypt and Nubia (1844), and Isis, an Egyptian Pilgrimage (2 vols., 1853). Returning to London, he wrote for the Daily Telegraph under the pseudonym of Greville Brooke and wrote numerous books of history and biography, including a 1868 biography of Sir Walter Raleigh, based on his researches in Madrid and elsewhere.

    Out in the valley of Pink Painted Plums 
    Live the Hum Dinger Doblins, who love sucking thumbs. 
    They love it so much, they get carried away, 
    and sometimes suck thumbs for 10 hours a day. 
    But no, oh no, when they suck on their thumbs 
    It causes them to always sit on on their bums. 
    When they sit on their bums, they don’t do their jobs, 
    So no one’s out pruning with their thingamabobs. 
    This causes the ecosystem to all fall apart, 
    So tune in to learn how they make a fresh start!
