"
And
what
follows
if
you
guess
truly
,
good
yeoman
?
"
replied
the
knight
.
"
I
should
in
that
case
hold
you
,
"
replied
the
yeoman
,
"
a
friend
to
the
weaker
party
.
"
"
Such
is
the
duty
of
a
true
knight
at
least
,
"
replied
the
Black
Champion
;
"
and
I
would
not
willingly
that
there
were
reason
to
think
otherwise
of
me
.
"
"
But
for
my
purpose
,
"
said
the
yeoman
,
"
thou
shouldst
be
as
well
a
good
Englishman
as
a
good
knight
;
for
that
,
which
I
have
to
speak
of
,
concerns
,
indeed
,
the
duty
of
every
honest
man
,
but
is
more
especially
that
of
a
true-born
native
of
England
.
"
"
You
can
speak
to
no
one
,
"
replied
the
knight
,
"
to
whom
England
,
and
the
life
of
every
Englishman
,
can
be
dearer
than
to
me
.
"
"
I
would
willingly
believe
so
,
"
said
the
woodsman
,
"
for
never
had
this
country
such
need
to
be
supported
by
those
who
love
her
.
Hear
me
,
and
I
will
tell
thee
of
an
enterprise
,
in
which
,
if
thou
be
's
t
really
that
which
thou
seemest
,
thou
mayst
take
an
honourable
part
.
A
band
of
villains
,
in
the
disguise
of
better
men
than
themselves
,
have
made
themselves
master
of
the
person
of
a
noble
Englishman
,
called
Cedric
the
Saxon
,
together
with
his
ward
,
and
his
friend
Athelstane
of
Coningsburgh
,
and
have
transported
them
to
a
castle
in
this
forest
,
called
Torquilstone
.
I
ask
of
thee
,
as
a
good
knight
and
a
good
Englishman
,
wilt
thou
aid
in
their
rescue
?
"
"
I
am
bound
by
my
vow
to
do
so
,
"
replied
the
knight
;
"
but
I
would
willingly
know
who
you
are
,
who
request
my
assistance
in
their
behalf
?
"
"
I
am
,
"
said
the
forester
,
"
a
nameless
man
;
but
I
am
the
friend
of
my
country
,
and
of
my
country
's
friends
--
With
this
account
of
me
you
must
for
the
present
remain
satisfied
,
the
more
especially
since
you
yourself
desire
to
continue
unknown
.
Believe
,
however
,
that
my
word
,
when
pledged
,
is
as
inviolate
as
if
I
wore
golden
spurs
.
"
"
I
willingly
believe
it
,
"
said
the
knight
;
"
I
have
been
accustomed
to
study
men
's
countenances
,
and
I
can
read
in
thine
honesty
and
resolution
.
I
will
,
therefore
,
ask
thee
no
further
questions
,
but
aid
thee
in
setting
at
freedom
these
oppressed
captives
;
which
done
,
I
trust
we
shall
part
better
acquainted
,
and
well
satisfied
with
each
other
.
"
"
So
,
"
said
Wamba
to
Gurth
,
--
for
the
friar
being
now
fully
equipped
,
the
Jester
,
having
approached
to
the
other
side
of
the
hut
,
had
heard
the
conclusion
of
the
conversation
,
--
"
So
we
have
got
a
new
ally
?
--
l
trust
the
valour
of
the
knight
will
be
truer
metal
than
the
religion
of
the
hermit
,
or
the
honesty
of
the
yeoman
;
for
this
Locksley
looks
like
a
born
deer-stealer
,
and
the
priest
like
a
lusty
hypocrite
.
