Robin Hood! all over England it is a name of affection, heroism, and gladness. It is so even where the ballads about him have been long forgotton, and where no recollection of his history survives. But how is this? His history quite forgot ten, why should his name excite such feeling? It is because of the past; because of its having become a name of feeling. Just as love means affection, even with persons ignorant of the Saxon word of a thousand years ago, whence it is derived, so it is with the name of Robin Hood.
