31. After the fight, where does Arthur go? Why does he leave Cameliard?
- He went into the forest where some wood cutters were cutting down some trees the trees. He left Cameliard and went into the forest because he knew that he was not yet finished in his fight against Mordaunt and wanted to keep his horse and his armor somewhere safe, where people wouldn’t find it. He needed a place to change back into his gardener’s boy disguise. P.121~122
32. How does Arthur react to all the excitement, cheering, and rejoicing over his defeat of Mordaunt?
He ignored it and simply kept his back turned away from all the cheering and excitement. (122)
33. On page 122, what is the way that the author wishes his reader to be like King Arthur when it comes to their victories?
He wants his readers to be strong like Arthur and to stay focused and full of determination no matter what their situation is— if the reader has a victory, Pyle wants his readers to stay calm and humble and not be overtaken with joy or pride in what they’ve done. If they have challenges or failures, he doesn’t want the reader to be overcome with sorrow or despair. (122)
34. According to the author, what does a true king of men say to himself after he wins a victory?
Howard Pyle says that a true king of men does not focus on his past or present victories and the praise that comes from them, but instead, stays humble and only focuses on the things that should be done in the future. He does not say to himself “I deserve praise” but instead asks himself “What else can I do to make the world a better place?” (122)
