Jeejeebhoy Jamsetji in a English boat/ In a spirit of enterprise/ around the chinese coast they tossed/ till he no longer felt very wise

Their stomachs compelled the crew to retire/ They did, all but one man/ Who painted a competitive storm/ With considerable elan

Jamesetji forgot his stomach and said/ "Teach at my school of art/ My city has gale enough to fill/

Your oil painterly heart"

The painter agreed, the storm abated They sailed till "Land Ahoy"/ Walking down, this story, then brought / More glory to Jeejeebhoy
