So Robin took the forty pounds, and gave half to his men. Then he told the King he might go on his way.
羅賓漢拿了這40磅，將一半給了同伴，之后他告訴國王你可以走了。
I thank you, said the King, but I would have you know that our ruler has bid me give you his seal and pray you to come to Nottingham.
國王說我謝謝你，但我要讓你直到的是，我們的統(tǒng)治者要求我給你他的印章，并祈望你前往諾丁漢。
At this message Robin bent his knee. I love no man in all the world, So well as I do my King, he cried.
在得到訊息后羅賓漢跪了下來，他叫嚷道，我從沒有像愛戴國王一樣愛戴過世界上任何一個人。
For your tidings, Sir Abbot, which fill my heart with joy, today you shall dine with me, for love of my King.
主持先生，你的這個訊息讓我的心充滿了歡樂，你今天可以和我一起用餐，為了對國王的愛。
Then Robin led the King into an open place, and took a horn and blew it loud. At its blast seven score of young men came speedily.
之后羅賓漢帶領(lǐng)國王進入空曠地區(qū)，拿起號角大聲吹了起來，隨著號角聲，一百四十多人迅速趕來。
They are quicker to do his bidding than my men are to do mine, said the King to himself.
國王對自己說，他們服從命令的速度比我的人要快。
Speedily the foresters set out the dinner, roasts of venison and loaves of white bread; then Robin and Little John served the King.
森林中的人迅速地準(zhǔn)備好餐品，烤鹿肉，白面包，之后羅賓漢和小約翰接待國王。
Make good cheer, said Robin. And then, Abbot, you shall see what sort of life we lead, so that you may tell our King.
羅賓漢說一定要吃得盡興，男主持，你可以看到我們過著什么樣的生活，你可以告訴我們的國王。
When all had finished eating, the archers took their bows and hung rose-garlands up with a string,
當(dāng)所有人用餐完畢后，弓箭手拿起弓，把玫瑰花環(huán)掛在繩子上，
for every man was to shoot through the garland. If he failed, he should have a blow on the head from Robin.
所有人都需要用箭穿過花環(huán)，如果他失敗了，羅賓漢將向他的頭打去。
Good bowmen as they were, few could stand the test. Little John and Will Scarlett shot wide of the mark.
盡管他們是好的自耕農(nóng)，但很少可以經(jīng)受測試，小約翰和威爾偏離目標(biāo)很遠(yuǎn)。
At length no one was left in but Robin himself and Gilbert of the Wide Hand. Then Robin fired his last arrow,
最終沒人成功，除了羅賓漢自己還有寬手吉伯，之后羅賓漢射了最后一箭，
and it fell three fingers from the garland. Master, said Gilbert, you have lost; stand forth and take your punishment,
但離花環(huán)還有三個手指的距離處掉落，吉伯說主人，你失敗了，站出來接受懲罰。
as was agreed. I will take it, answered Robin, but, Sir Abbot, I pray you that I may receive the blow at your hands.
這是我們都同意的，羅賓漢說我將接受懲罰，但是男主持，我期望是你給我懲罰。
