Reading edition
The title-page of this curious poem is lost, but the passage alluded to, is as follows:—
"There hath beene great sale and utterance of wine, Besides beere and ale, and ipocras fine, In every country, region, and nation; Chefely at Billingsgate, at the Salutation, And Bores Head, neere London Stone, The Swan at Dowgate, a taverne well knowne, The Miter in Cheape, and then the Bull Head, And many like places that make noses red; The Bores Head in old Fish-street, three Cranes in the Vintree, And now of late St. Martin's in the Sentree; The Wind-mill in Lothburry, the Ship at the Exchange, King's Head in New Fish-streete, where roysters do range; The Mermaid in Cornhill, Red Lion in the Strand, Three Tuns Newgate Market, Old Fish-street at the Swan."
