And Little John kild a hart of Greece,

Five hundreth foot him fro.

Gods blessing on thy heart, said Robin Hood,

That hath such a shot for me ;

I would ride my horse a hundred miles,

To find one could match thee.

That caused Will Scadlòcke to laugh,

He laught full heartily :

“There lives a curtall fryer in Fountaines-Abbey

Will beate both him and thee. {211}
