Quiver
If a quaver is an eighth note,
a semiquaver is half of that—or double—a sixteenth note.
A demisemiquaver is a thirty-second note,
so a hemidemisemiquaver is a sixty-fourth note.
Line up a row of hemidemisemiquavers
and you truly have a quiver of the lips.
Hemidimisemiquivers if you will.
Now if a quiver is also a container
is a hemidemisemiquiver a slipcover
for a single arrow perhaps?
