A
Hubert
!
a
Hubert
!
"
shouted
the
populace
,
more
interested
in
a
known
person
than
in
a
stranger
.
"
In
the
clout
!
--
in
the
clout
!
--
a
Hubert
for
ever
!
"
"
Thou
canst
not
mend
that
shot
,
Locksley
,
"
said
the
Prince
,
with
an
insulting
smile
.
"
I
will
notch
his
shaft
for
him
,
however
,
"
replied
Locksley
.
And
letting
fly
his
arrow
with
a
little
more
precaution
than
before
,
it
lighted
right
upon
that
of
his
competitor
,
which
it
split
to
shivers
.
The
people
who
stood
around
were
so
astonished
at
his
wonderful
dexterity
,
that
they
could
not
even
give
vent
to
their
surprise
in
their
usual
clamour
.
"
This
must
be
the
devil
,
and
no
man
of
flesh
and
blood
,
"
whispered
the
yeomen
to
each
other
;
"
such
archery
was
never
seen
since
a
bow
was
first
bent
in
Britain
.
"
"
And
now
,
"
said
Locksley
,
"
I
will
crave
your
Grace
's
permission
to
plant
such
a
mark
as
is
used
in
the
North
Country
;
and
welcome
every
brave
yeoman
who
shall
try
a
shot
at
it
to
win
a
smile
from
the
bonny
lass
he
loves
best
.
"
He
then
turned
to
leave
the
lists
.
"
Let
your
guards
attend
me
,
"
he
said
,
"
if
you
please
--
I
go
but
to
cut
a
rod
from
the
next
willow-bush
.
"
Prince
John
made
a
signal
that
some
attendants
should
follow
him
in
case
of
his
escape
:
but
the
cry
of
"
Shame
!
shame
!
"
which
burst
from
the
multitude
,
induced
him
to
alter
his
ungenerous
purpose
.
Locksley
returned
almost
instantly
with
a
willow
wand
about
six
feet
in
length
,
perfectly
straight
,
and
rather
thicker
than
a
man
's
thumb
.
He
began
to
peel
this
with
great
composure
,
observing
at
the
same
time
,
that
to
ask
a
good
woodsman
to
shoot
at
a
target
so
broad
as
had
hitherto
been
used
,
was
to
put
shame
upon
his
skill
.
"
For
his
own
part
,
"
he
said
,
"
and
in
the
land
where
he
was
bred
,
men
would
as
soon
take
for
their
mark
King
Arthur
's
round-table
,
which
held
sixty
knights
around
it
.
A
child
of
seven
years
old
,
"
he
said
,
"
might
hit
yonder
target
with
a
headless
shaft
;
but
,
"
added
he
,
walking
deliberately
to
the
other
end
of
the
lists
,
and
sticking
the
willow
wand
upright
in
the
ground
,
"
he
that
hits
that
rod
at
five-score
yards
,
I
call
him
an
archer
fit
to
bear
both
bow
and
quiver
before
a
king
,
an
it
were
the
stout
King
Richard
himself
.
"
"
My
grandsire
,
"
said
Hubert
,
"
drew
a
good
bow
at
the
battle
of
Hastings
,
and
never
shot
at
such
a
mark
in
his
life
--
and
neither
will
I
.
If
this
yeoman
can
cleave
that
rod
,
I
give
him
the
bucklers
--
or
rather
,
I
yield
to
the
devil
that
is
in
his
jerkin
,
and
not
to
any
human
skill
;
a
man
can
but
do
his
best
,
and
I
will
not
shoot
where
I
am
sure
to
miss
.
