Rihana: Hetiha-ye Diha-fe 8

From:John Leland <lelandconlang@...>
Date:Friday, June 4, 2004, 1:22
NOTE:Obviously this installment was influenced by the modern story (not in
the original
Robin Hood ballads) about Robin Hood collecting money for Richard
Lionheart'sransom.
This is also connected to other material about Pitibada in Hemana (Jasas)
which is not in the Hetiha-ye Diha series.
