Hi Mnemosyne,
Hurrah !!
Cock-Robin it is,
I met the merry travellers,
tale-weaving ravellers,
Quote:

Merry, Pippin and Sam sat at their ease, laughing, talking and singing

On word of the deceivers,
lying, spying reivers.

There's a few as does spy-work..... "Ah, so that's how you had news of us"
|
Took them with no tumult,
just ridicule and insult.

Calling your Chief Names, Wishing to punch his pimply face etc

Questioned by an old friend,
hope they'll bring it to an end.

Hey, come here Robin Smallburrow

If we all got angry together something might be done

Next day all marching,
footsore, hot and parching.

At the Three-Farthing stone they gave it up

Missing the old Dragon's lair,
days of old without a care.

If I steal off like a cat,
I'll go home and change my hat.
OK, this is the speculative bit, Robin disliked the Chief etc and the Shirrifs later took off their hat-feathers and joined the revolt.
Your turn now Mnem...
