 +Thomas D'​Urfey printed it as the vehicle for a ribald song in his Wit and Mirth, or Pills to Purge Melancholy, vol. 4 (1719-1720). It begins:
 +<​code>​
 +On Enfield Common, I met a Woman,
 +A bringing North Hall Water to the Town;
 +Said I, fair Maiden, you're heavily laden,
 +I'll light and give you ease in a Green Gown;
 +Says she, 'tis good Sir, to stir the Blood, Sir,
 +For the Green-sickness,​ Friend, will make me like it;
 +Then in a Minute I left my Gennett,
 +And went aside with her into a Thicket:
 +Then with her leave there, a Dose I gave her,
 +She straight confess'​d her Sickness I did nick it.</​code>​
