Hi again,
I'm unsure about two things again.
In Bulfinch's book it asks, "What thing is it which women most desire?" and the reply is "...ALL WOMEN WOULD HAVE THEIR WILL, This is their chief desire." Is it possible for you to put this reply in other words? Does it mean that they want to get what they want?
And one from Chaucer:
"With so high reverence and observance,
As well in speeche as in countenance,
That Gawain, with his olde curtesie,
Though he were come agen out of faerie,
Ne coude him not amenden with a word."
I cannot be sure about the last two lines, I guess Gawain must be under spell that makes him older, but what about the last line then?
Thank you very much.
