"1400-50; late Middle English hempi made of hemp (see hemp, -y1); hence, fit for hanging by a hemp rope, and, by attenuation, mischievous"

ha, great word, fit for hanging, I can see your need to use it. I know someone who'll probably give me an opportunity to use use it, can't wait. Smile

I just read a bunch of versions of Lord Randall and listened to a few. Thanks for the fun.

Your poem: you said it short and sweet, well done, hempy.
