What a Wicked Lady!

Oh, the treachery this woman attempts on her good husband! It is truly a vile obsession this lady has with good Sir Gawain, who thankfully is righteous and virtuous enough to refrain from fulfilling her fantasies of him! I pity her husband, who trusts her most adamently! It is a shame that she attempts to gratify her unclean desires in her husband's absence. It is even an insult that she thinks Gawain will give in to her desires! Clearly, she must not know how virtuous and good he is - even though she claims she knows this well! Maybe she is just incapable of understanding such good qualities as honesty and respect! It truly pleases me that Gawain of Arthur's court upholds his duty as a virtuous and trustworthy knight, respecting the lord who gives him lodging during his journey to find the Green Knight. Arthur would also be pleased to hear about Gawain's strength against the wishes of this lady, as Gawain does find her to be the most beautiful lady he's ever laid eyes upon. It takes a real man to resist temptation of this sort, especially when one feels this strong of an attraction. May Gawain continue to be as virtuous and true as always, and may this wicked lady know not the kindness of God's love until she repents for her unclean desires and attempts at dishonoring her husband.

Well said, fair lady! Gawain is truly one of the greatest knights to ever have drawn breath, and his ability to remain dedicated and loving to such an undesirable woman are true marks of his incredible worth as a knight. And though Sir Gawain wins himself a beautiful and lovely wife at the end of his ordeal, the fact that he went to such great lengths for this woman with no knowledge of any sort of payoff speak volumes towards his incredible courage and honor.
