Answer:
his ballad is something of a re-write of the earlier and longer ballad Robin Hood and the Potter. To read that earlier ballad (the surviving copy is currently believed to have been written in the 1460s) please visit The Robin Hood Project at the University of Rochester .
As with Robin Hood's Death, I am presenting two versions of this ballad. The more modern Version B appears before the older (and sadly incomplete) Version A. One thing not in version B at all (and largely occuring in a missing part of version A) is the fight between Robin and the Butcher. This fight takes up a larger part of the Potter ballad (and all of the May Games play based on the Potter tale) and is an early example of what Stephen Knight calls "Robin Hood meets his match". Similar fights take place in a lot of the later ballads, including Robin Hood and the Curtal Friar, Robin Hood and Little John and Robin Hood and Maid Marian.
The trick of luring the sheriff of Nottingham into the greenwood on the pretence of finding some beasts resembles a trick that Little John played on the sheriff in A Gest of Robyn Hode, another early ballad. In Robin Hood and the Potter, Robin outshoots the sheriff's men in a small archery contest. The disguised Robin tells the sheriff that he has often shot with Robin Hood, and the sheriff -- led by the fake potter -- goes into the greenwood hoping to trap the outlaw.
The Butcher ballads and their Potter predcessor continue to be a popular Robin Hood story, retold in many children's books.]
