The knights of the round table were bound by the code of chivalry that called for loyalty to king, god, and lady. in which lines of this excerpt from sir gawain and the green knight does sir gawain describe upholding this code? as you promised in presence of these proud knights. to the green chapel come, i charge you, to take such a dint as you have dealt--you have well deserved. . and the loss of my life would be least of any; that i have you for uncle is my only praise; my body, but for your blood, is barren of worth; and for that this folly befits not a king, and 'tis i that have asked it, it ought to be mine,. . by heaven, i would hold me the happiest of men if by word or by work i once might aspire to the prize of your praise--'twere a pure joy! '. . "behold , sir," said he, and handles the belt, "this is the blazon of the blemish that i bear on my neck; this is the sign of sore loss that i have suffered there; for the cowardice and coveting that i came to there; this is the badge of false faith that i was found in there,

And the loss of my life would be least of any; That I have you for uncle is my only praise; My body, but for your blood, is barren of worth; And for that this folly befits not a king, And 'tis I that have asked it, it ought to be mine,

Explanation:

This is the section of the passage that best describes how Sir Gawain upholds this code. We know that the code of chivalry is to be loyal to king, God and lady. In this excerpt, Sir Gawain tells us that he is willing to lose his life for loyalty to his uncle. He also tells us that he considers his body to be worthless except for his blood, as he shares his blood with his uncle. All of these statements show that Sir Gawain is extremely loyal to his uncle.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
