One day Robin Hood was walking through the forest with his men and saw a young man. The young man was dressed in a very beautiful red coat and was singing merrily. The next morning Robin Hood saw the same young man without his fine coat. The young man looked very sad. Robin Hood sent Little John to fetch the young man. When the young man approached Robin Hood, he asked him, " What is your name?" The young man replied that his name was Allan-a-Dale. Then Robin Hood asked:"Do you have any money?" - I have only five shillings and a ring that I have kept for seven years. I wanted to marry a nice young girl. I was going to marry her yesterday, but her father is against it. He wants to marry her off to a rich old man. Now I'm unhappy."

Robin Hood asked the young man, " What will you give me and my merry people if we help you get your girl back?" Allan-a-Dale had no money or gold, but he promised to be a faithful servant of Robin Hood. So Robin Hood decided to help Allan-a-Dale, and they all went to the town where the girl lived. When they arrived in the city, they saw the girl that Allan loved. She was going to church with a rich old man. Robin Hood and his men entered the church and asked the priest to marry the girl to Allan-a-Dale.

When the priest refused, Robin Hood took off his coat and put it on little John. So Little John married the young men, and they returned together to jolly Greenwood.
