PAST ONE O'CLOCK. AKA and see “Chami/Cha mi ma chattle,” "Cold Frosty Morning (2)," “Táim i mo Chodladh,” "I Am Asleep and Don't Waken Me (2)," "Thamama Hulla." Irish, Air (3/4 time). A Major (Holden): G Mixolydian (Stuart): G Major (Moffat, Thumoth, Wright). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Holden, Moffat, Wright), AABBCCDD. O’Farrell marks the tune “slow” and says the tune is Irish; sometimes the song burden is in Irish. Allan Ramsay used the tune for a song entitled "Love Inviting Reason" in his Tea Table Miscellany (c. 1724, p. 335[1], and an instrumental version of the air was printed in Musick for Allan Ramsay’s Collection of Scots Songs, Book III (c. 1725) as “Chami/Cha mi ma chattle.” It is the only one of Ramsays songs to be set to an Irish melody, "Tá mé i mo chodladh ’s ná dúisigh mé" (I am asleep, and don’t waken me), notes David McGuinness<ref>Booklet to recording "Shepherds and Tea Tables: Songs of Allan Ramsay" (2023) <ref>
It was printed in Coffey’s Dublin-staged ballad opera The Beggar’s Wedding (1729, Act ii, Air x), and in the ballad-opera Flora (1732) as “Past one o’clock, on a cold and frosty morning,” and in Burk Thumoth’s 1742 collection (pp. 30-31) as “Past One O’Clock.” See notes for "I Am Asleep and Don't Waken Me (2)" and "Cold Frosty Morning (2)" for more.
