Tom Hayley as Robin Goodfellow
 | 1789: The Tate Collection, London
|
When house or harth doth sluttish lye,
I pinch the maidens black and blue;
The bed-clothes from the bedd pull I,
And lay them naked all to view.
'Twixt sleep and wake,
I do them take,
And on the key-cold floor them throw.
If out they cry
Then forth I fly,
And loudly laugh out, ho, ho, ho !
Reliques of Ancient English Poetry
Thomas Percy
1765
