              <text>One of the most famous and unchanging Robin Hood ballads is the one that describes his untimely end at the hands of his arch-nemesis and his traitorous cousin, a prioress of Churchlees. In this ballad, the reader is confronted with some hard truths about Robin and his seemingly unblemished physical and mental faculties. The first lines of the piece immediately confirm our fears: &#13;
&#13;
When Robin Hood and Little John&#13;
&#13;
Down a down a down a down&#13;
&#13;
Went oer yon bank of broom,&#13;
&#13;
Said Robin Hood bold to Little John,&#13;
&#13;
"We have shot for many a pound.&#13;
&#13;
Hey, etc.&#13;
&#13;
 &#13;
&#13;
"But I am not able to shoot one shot more,&#13;
&#13;
My broad arrows will not fly;&#13;
&#13;
But I have a cousin lives down below,&#13;
&#13;
Please God, she will bleed me. (Knight, Ohlgren)&#13;
&#13;
The reader might, at first glance, assume that our outlaw hero is dealing with depression or another mood disorder like Bipolar, but based on other ballads this diagnosis seems inappropriate; an interesting alternative to this theory is one where Robin Hood is not depressed, but instead is unable to focus properly which manifests itself in extreme frustration. He is so deeply frustrated with his inability to focus on his craft that he wants to seek medical attention. To speak in general terms, people with depression and other mood disorders are often unable or unwilling to seek help for their syndrome due to debilitating lack of energy, so Robin’s assertive plea for help is likely not that of someone with such an illness. When we read further, the likelihood that Robin having ADHD becomes stronger:&#13;
&#13;
“I will never eate nor drinke," Robin Hood said,&#13;
&#13;
"Nor meate will doo me noe good,&#13;
&#13;
Till I have beene att merry Churchlees,&#13;
&#13;
My vaines for to let blood."&#13;
&#13;
 &#13;
&#13;
"That I reade not," said Will Scarllett,&#13;
&#13;
"Master, by the assente of me,&#13;
&#13;
Without halfe a hundred of your best bowmen&#13;
&#13;
You take to goe with yee.&#13;
&#13;
 &#13;
&#13;
"For there a good yeoman doth abide&#13;
&#13;
Will be sure to quarrell with thee,&#13;
&#13;
And if thou have need of us, master,&#13;
&#13;
In faith we will not flee."&#13;
&#13;
 &#13;
&#13;
"And thou be feard, thou William Scarlett,&#13;
&#13;
Att home I read thee bee." &#13;
&#13;
"And you be wrothe, my deare master,&#13;
&#13;
You shall never heare more of mee."(Knight, Ohlgren)&#13;
&#13;
In this section, Robin suggests that he go on a hunger strike until he is able to reach his destination; which may not seem like a stereotypical facet of ADHD, but it has been noted that people with this disorder, while unable to focus on pressing tasks to the point of danger/negligence, there is the flipside where patients will go into a sort of “hyper-focus” wherein they can focus in a manner which often exceeds the faculties of neuro-typical people. This hyper-focus is easily read within the aforementioned passage. Robin refuses to rest until he has been bled and also blatantly disregards any attempts at assistance that his men provide. This abandonment of aid is indicative of hyper-focus, as well as another facet of the disorder: inability to follow through with instruction/recklessness. The idea of recklessness is incredibly important to Robin’s diagnosis of ADHD versus some other mental or neurological disorder. The extreme carelessness and lack of attention Robin exhibits throughout the centuries of ballads is enough to square him firmly in the camp of those with ADHD.&#13;
&#13;
“You'st beare your bowe, master, your selfe,&#13;
&#13;
And shoote for a peny with mee."&#13;
&#13;
"To that I doe assent," Robin Hood sayd,&#13;
&#13;
"And soe, John, lett it bee."&#13;
&#13;
 &#13;
&#13;
They two bolde children shotten together,&#13;
&#13;
All day theire selfe in ranke,&#13;
&#13;
Until they came to blacke water,&#13;
&#13;
And over it laid a planke. (Knight, Ohlgren)&#13;
&#13;
Lastly, this excerpt is incredibly telling when it comes to Robin’s status as a person with ADHD. Incredibly, despite Robin’s complete inability to shoot tbat has led him on this fatal journey in the first place, he begins his trip to the priory by starting a shooting contest with Little John. A depressed person would likely be unable to muster the energy to feign competition with his friend, especially if he were ill enough to require medical attention; Robin, on the other hand, seems to have the ability to shoot, but only fleetingly. This fluctuation in ability is an obvious marker of the disorder that was unknown at the time of the historical/fictional Robin, as well as at the time these stories were published. Equally important is the line “The two bolde children shotten together,” because it is necessary to note that ADHD commonly afflicts children and adults with the disorder are left behind. Robin’s age is something of a mystery in most of the ballads, but since he’s trying to get bled it is unlikely he’s truly a child in this ballad, so this representation of childhood may be hinting at Robin’s “childish” nature—a common criticism of those with ADHD. Perhaps if Robin were aware of his disease he would have lived longer instead of trying to be treated for an unknown illness by his treacherous cousin who allowed him to be killed. Robin’s final run in with danger is one that clearly indicates his status as a person living with ADHD and by bringing awareness to this diagnosis, the ballad allows people with similar symptoms to feel validated and represented.</text>

              <text>When Robin Hood and Little John Down a down a down a down Went over yon bank of broom, Said Robin Hood bold to Little John, "We have shot for many a pound. Hey, etc.  "But I am not able to shoot one shot more, My broad arrows will not fly; But I have a cousin lives down below, Please God, she will bleed me.  "I will never eat nor drink," Robin Hood said, "Nor meat will do me any good, Till I have been at merry Churchlees, My veins for to let blood."  "That I read not," said Will Scarllett, "Master, I advise thee, Without half a hundred of your best bowmen You take to go with yee.  "For there a good yeoman doth abide Will be sure to quarrel with thee, And if thou have need of us, master, In faith we will not flee."  "And thou be feared, thou William Scarlett, At home I read thee bee." "And you be angry, my dear master, You shall never hear more of me."  "For there shall no man with me go, Nor man with me ride, And Little John shall be my man, And bear my bent-bow by my side."  "You must bear your bow, master, yourself, And shoot for a penny with me." "To that I do assent," Robin Hood said, "And so, John, let it be."  They two bold children shot together, All day their self in rank, Until they came to black water, And over it laid a plank.  Upon it there kneeled an old woman, Was banning Robin Hood; "Why dost thou bann Robin Hood?" said Robin, "Knowst thou of him no good?"  "We women have no blessing To give to Robin Hood; Wee weep for his dear body, That this day must be let blood."  "The dame prior is my aunts daughter, And nie unto my kin; I know she would do me no harm this day, For all the world to win."  Forth then shot these children two, And they did never lin, Until they came to merry Churchlees, To merry Churchlees with-in.  And when they came to merry Churchlees, They knocked upon a pin; Up then rose dame prioress, And let good Robin in.  Then Robin gave to dame prioress Twenty pound in gold, And bad her spend while that would last, And she should have more when shee wold.  And down then came dame prioress, Down she came in that ilke, With a pair of blood-irons in her hands, Were wrapped all in silk.  "Sett a chaffing-dish to the fire," said dame prioress, "And strip thou up thy sleeve." I hold him but an unwise man That will no warning leave.  She laid the blood-irons to Robin Hoods vein, Alacke, the more pity! And pierced the vein, and let out the blood, That full red was to see.  And first it bled, the thick, thick blood, And afterwards the thin, And well then knew good Robin Hood, Treason there was within.  He then bethought him of a casement there, Thinking for to get down, But was so weak he could not leap, He could not get him down.  He then bethought him of his bugle-horn, Which hung low down to his knee; He set his horn unto his mouth, And blew out weak blasts three.  Then Little John, when hearing him, As he sat under a tree: "I fear my master is now near dead, He blows so wearily."  Then Little John to fair Churchlees is gone, As fast as he can be; But when he came to Churchlees-hall, He broke locks two or three.  "What cheer my master?" said Little John; "In faith, John, little good. My cousin and Red Roger, Between them let my blood."  "I have upon a gown of green, Is cut short by my knee, And in my hand a bright brown brand That will well bite for thee."  But before then of a shot-window Good Robin Hood he could glide, Red Roger, with a sharpened-sword, Thrust him through the milk-white side.  But Robin was light and nimble of foot, And thought to abate his pride, For betwixt his head and his shoulders He made a wound full wide.  Says, "Lie there, lie there, Red Roger, The dogs they must thee eat; For I may have my last rites," he said, "For I may both go and speak."  "Now give me mood," Robin said to Little John, "Give me mood with thy hand; I trust to God in heaven so high My confession will me bestand."  "Now give me leave, give me leave, master," he said, "For Christ’s love give leave to me, To set a fire within this hall, And to burn up all Churchlee."  "That I read not," said Robin Hood then, "Little John, for it may not be; If I should do any widow hurt, at my latter end, God," he said, "would blame me.  "I never hurt fair maid in all my time, Nor at mine end shall it be, But give me my bent bow in my hand, And a broad arrow I'll let flee; And where this arrow is taken up, There shall my grave digged be.  "Lay me a green sod under my head, And another at my feet; And lay my bent bow by my side, Which was my music sweet; And make my grave of gravel and green, Which is most right and meet.  "Let me have length and breadth enough, With a green sod under my head; That they may say, when I am dead Here lies bold Robin Hood."  These words they readily granted him, Which did bold Robin please: And there they buried bold Robin Hood, Within the fair Churchlees.&#13;
