M. Parker ‘The Fayre Warning’ in Chappell Roxburghe Ballads (1871) I 372: If thou see a whoremonger passing at leisure, / Halfe fearfull his legs will drop off by the knees, / When every justle may do him displeasure, / He hath been so stung with the Turnbull-street bees: / when thou seest his case, beware of the place.
