They cut them down the summer shrubs
Which grew both under a briar,
And set them three score rods in twain,
To shoot the pricks full near.

"Lead on, good fellow," said Sir Guy,
"Lead on, I do bid thee."
"Nay, by my faith," quoth Robin Hood,
"The leader thou shalt be."

The first good shoot that Robin led
Did not shoot an inch from the center of the target;
Guy was an archer good enough,
But he could never shoot so.

The second shot Sir Guy shot,
He shot within the garland;
But Robin Hood shot it better than he,
For he clove the good target-wand.
