But oh ! said bold Robin, how sweet would it be,
If Clorinda would be my bride !
She blusht at the motion ; yet, after a pause,
Said, Yes, sir, and with all my heart.
Then let us send for a priest, said Robin Hood,
And be married before we do part.
But she said, It may not be so, gentle sir,
For I must be at Titbury feast ;
And if Robin Hood will go thither with me,
I’ll make him the most welcome guest.
