The Sad Tale Of Robin Hood
Robin Hood lay dying, and all the faithful gathered round.
With his weak and fading breath, Robin asked Marion to bring him the best arrow from the quiver beside his bed, and then asked Little John to bring him his bow.
He put the arrow to the bow and aimed through the open window into the generous green sward of Sherwood Forest beyond which he loved so much. He asked of Friar Tuck, “Promise me that wherever the arrow falls, there you will bury me.”
And when Tuck had sworn, Robin Hood demanded the same of the others. Then with his last strength he drew on the bow and let the arrow fly.
And then he died, smiling. And next day, they did as they had promised, they buried Robin Hood.
On top of his wardrobe.
