He was always kind to the poor, and he often sent help to them and for that reason the common people looked upon him as their friend. Robin never allowed his men to harm anybody but the rich men who lived in great houses and did no work. He then divided it fairly among them, giving to each man his just share. ![]() When-ever they had taken anything, it was brought and laid at the feet of Robin Hood, whom they called their king. They were dressed in suits of green, and armed with bows and arrows and sometimes they carried long wooden lances and broad-swords, which they knew how to handle well. There were nearly a hundred of these outlaws, and their leader was a bold fellow called Robin Hood. There they spent their time in roaming about among the trees, in hunting the king's deer, and in robbing rich travelers that came that way. They had done something that was against the laws of the land, and had been forced to hide themselves in the woods to save their lives. In this forest there lived a band of daring men called out-laws. ![]() The most famous of these was Sherwood forest, where the king often went to hunt deer. In the rude days of King Richard and King John there were many great woods in England. ![]()
