cccx And there dwelt that gentle Knight,
Sir Richard at the Lee, That Robin hadde lent his good,
Under the green-wood tree.

Welcome art thou to me ,

And of thy courtesy, And of thy great kindness,

So much as I do thee ; For all the proud Sheriff of Nottingham,
Right here shalt thou be.

And let no man come in, And arm you well, and make you ready,
And to the walls ye win.
cccxv ' For one thing, Robin, I thee behote,
I swear by Saint Quintin, These twelve days thou wonest with me,
To sup, eat, and dine.'
