::::That it does, but I'm not sure how that ties into homeschooling in the way the article is written. The way the paragraph is written, it sounds like a rant. And I'm talking about historically speaking, it wasnt expected that it be followed to the letter. [[User:TalosRising|TalosRising]] 17:50, 11 May 2012 (EDT)

here are some descriptions of ideal knights, we could perhaps work some of this into the text.  Here is what Chaucer has to say about the Knight, and the explanations that my version gives: 'A Knight ther was, and that a worthy man,/ That fro the time that he first bigan/ To riden out, he loved chivalrie (same meaning as now, basically with more emphasis on military skill),/Trouthe(steadfastness, loyalty ie.: 'troth') and honour(honourable behaviour and speech)/ fredom (liberality, generosity) and curteisie(gentle manners, concern for others).

And this is from 'Gawain and the Green Knight' with the explanation that Brian Stone gives: Fraunchise: magnanimity, 'free-hearted generosity appropriate a noble'; fala*schyp: love of fellow men, lovingkindness ('*' stands for a letter I don't know); clannes: purity, chastity; cortaysye: courtesy; pité: piety, pity. He translates the whole phrase in the text as: 'Liberality and Lovingkindness... Continence and Courtesy... And Piety' I just thought that these were cool.
