Thompson	Whistling (36)	RE: Whistling	27 Mar 17
In a theatre? When does that happen? In Ireland, by the way, it's "A whistling woman and a crowing hen/ Will bring the Devil from his den." Crowing hens are common, especially if you don't have a cock in the flock, but also just generally. I wonder was the rhyme a general disapproval of feisty girls, or did witches whistle to bring Himself around.
