'The King! The King!', 1932. '...the abbot's hood had fallen back and revealed his features clearly. The men were suddenly startled by their leader's cry, "The King! the King" God save the King!" and Robin fell to his knee pleading for mercy and pardon for himself and his company. "We are rough fellows", said he, "but our hearts are true to you and 'Merrie England'". "Get up, Robin", commanded the King...your petition is granted...'. From "Robin Hood and His Life in the Merry Greenwood", by Rose Yeatman Woolf, illustrated by Howard Davie. [Raphael Tuck & Sons Ltd, London, 1932]
