The Desription of Guy of Gisborne from the Ballad of Robin Hood and Guy of Gisborne

I posted this on my tumblr page earlier in the week that is known as FanstRAvaganza 4 and I have been trying to decide if I should repost it here and as you have probably figured out, I'm posting it here as well.



THE DESCRIPTION of GUY of GISBORNE   

A sword and dagger he wore by his side,
Of mayne a man the bane;
And he was clad in capull-hyde (capull-hyde = horse hide) 
Topp and tayle and mayne

''I dwell by dale and downe" quothe hee,
"And Robin to take I am sworne;
And when I am called by my right name
I am Guy of good Gisborne"
