The origin of the term John Bulr
is thus explained by a London journal:
DIR. John Bull was the first Gresham
professor Of music, organist Of Here
ford cathedral and composer to Queen
Elizabeth. John, like true English
man, Travelled for Improvement, and
having heard Of famous musician at
st. Omer he placed himself under him
as a novice. but circumstance very
soon convinced the master that he was
inferior to the scholar. The musician
showed John song which he had COM
posed In forty parts. telling him at the
same time that he defied all the world
to produce person capable Of adding
another part to his composition. Bull
desired to be left alone and to be in
dulged for short time with pen and
ink. In less than three hours he added
forty parts more to the song, upon
which the Frenchman was 90 much
surprised that he swore In great ecstasy
he must be either the devil or John
Bull. which has ever since been pro-
verbal In England.
