Description
The relationship between the apprentices and their masters is the theme of this text. In 16th-century, two young lads were ousted by their eldest brother, or by his cranky partner. John succeeded their father’s position in the New Forest as a verdurer, but what about his younger brothers, Ambrose and Stephen? Are they going to go ask help from their old and ill uncle who receives endowment from serving the military, or to find their maternal uncle who has made his riches in the king’s court?The three lads lost their father, leaving a small allocation which is stated in the testament. But John is cruel, he has no plans of giving his brothers their shares. Since they were casted out from their home, Stephen thought that may be their brother and his wife will let them stay for a month, but Ambrose is much more willing to leave and seek their own luck.John despised his two younger brothers because they were the sons of his father’s mistress, to whom his father married subsequently after John’s mother knew about the affair. Ambrose is a risk taker, courageous, and willful while Stephen is the complete opposite, soft, naïve, and imaginative. Despite of being totally dissimilar, the two young boys seek for one aim. John wanted them to stay and make up to his cranky wife. Ambrose did not like the idea, he wants to move out along with his brother.The Birkenholt family are established verdurers of the New Forest who were keen in maintaining the woods green and alive, their sanctuary was held for many years. With John’s transition to uphold the New Forest.When Ambrose and Stephen left, tagging along their dog, they are still confused on whom to go first. The armourer’s prentices are believed to be the two young boys, Ambrose and Stephen.
