Great Great changes changes had had fallen fallen in this this time time ; ; for for King King Henry Henry had had died died and and King Richard Richard had had come come to to the the crown crown that that fitted fitted him him so so well well through through many many hard hard trials trials , , and and through through adventures adventures as stirring stirring as as any any that that ever ever befell befell Robin Robin Hood Hood . . But though great changes came , they did not reach to Sherwood 's shades , for there Robin Hood and his men dwelled as merrily as they had ever done , with hunting and feasting and singing and blithe woodland sports ; for it was little the outside striving of the world troubled them .
За это время произошли большие перемены, ибо король Генрих умер, и король Ричард пришел к короне, которая так хорошо подходила ему, пройдя через множество тяжелых испытаний и через приключения, столь же волнующие, как и все, что когда-либо случалось с Робин Гудом. Но хотя наступили великие перемены, они не достигли теней Шервуда, ибо там Робин Гуд и его люди жили так же весело, как и прежде, с охотой, пирами, пением и веселыми лесными забавами; ибо их мало беспокоили внешние стремления мира.
