Traitor! Traitor!
Sir Gawayne.
[Stopping short.] Now by the Four Evangelists.... [He takes a sudden decision, and goes toward his bride.] Lady, love is free in himself, and never will be bound, but I shall be your servant and knight in right and wrong, and I shall never fail you to do as much as a knight may do, and I promise you faithfully that I shall be all the days of my life your knight!
Déliveré.
Coward!
“Look, Sir Knight! Behold the visage of your bride!”
Sir Gawayne.
Not so, Sir Déliveré, for, God wot, I have chosen the more perilous part!
