Sir Gawain and the Green Knight
Storyboard Tekst
- 'So at Christmas in this court I lay down a challenge: if a person here present, within these premises, is big or bold or red blooded enough to strike me one stroke and be struck in return, I shall give him as a gift this gigantic cleaver and the axe shall be his to handle how he likes' (Fitt I, 39, L. 284-289).
- Who is this guy...?
- Who shall step up to the challenge!?
- Fitt IThe Green Knight's Challenge
- ''Furthermore,' said the master, 'let's make a pact. Here's a wager: what I win in the woods will be yours, and what you gain while I'm gone you will give to me. Young sir, let's swap, and strike a bond, let a bargain be a bargain, for better or worse' (Fitt II, 95, L. 1105-1109).
- Why don't we play a little game of exchange? I give you what I get from hunting, and you give me whatever you get during your time here.
- Sure, I'll play along to this game of yours. It sounds quite fun.

- 'And I know of your courtesies, and conduct, and kisses, and the wooing of my wife--for it was all my work! I sent her to test you--and in truth it turns out you're by far the most faultless fellow on earth...But a little thing more--it was loyalty that you lacked: not because you're wicked, or a womanizer, or worse, but you loved your own life; so I blame you less' (Fitt IV, 179, L. 2360-2368).
- Remember the guy that you had that bargain with? Yeah, that's me. I know about the girdle and how you lied to me. I have to say, though, that you are, indeed, a very honorable knight, despite that last action.
- I see...Well, I shall take blame for this act of cowardice. Is there anything I can do to make up for it?
