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. The air was entered by Andrew Adam in Glasgow in the earliest part of Margaret Sinkler's Music Book (1710). 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”, around the same time the Irish version was published in Dublin, Ireland, by the Neals. 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 (2)"), notes David McGuinness

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.
