by Unknown

That ye shall mete with good Robyn,

On lyve yf that he be,

Or ye come to Notyngham,

With eyen ye shall hym se.

Full hastly our kynge was dyght,

So were his knyghtes fyve,

Everych of them in monkes wede,

And hasted them thyder blyth.

Our kynge was grete above his cole,

A brode hat on his crowne,
