IRHB comments
This text also includes an allusion to Robin Hood. Bond[2] notes that though ostensibly taking place in the Roman empire, Misogonus is entirely English in tone and atmosphere and as regards characters' names and allusions. He cites the alluions to Robin Hood and Maid Marian among his examples.
Maid Marian, the "smurkinge wenche", is a character connected with entertainments in popular festivals. The Robin Hood allusion in Misogonus also clearly suggests a festival context.
