Do you know anything about the Knights of the Round Table?   This is about the chivalry of two knights from King Arthur\'s legends. This essay is to compare King Arthur and his son Mordred. According to me king Arthur is the most true to the code of chivalry.  

The first Knight I am going to tell you is not really a knight but a king, King Arthur.   King Arthur is the opposite of his son Mordred.   King Arthur was loyal to his country from beginning to end.   One of the times that   King Arthur showed chivalry is during the war with Lancelot, when he stopped the war when Lancelot gave up and didn’t continue even if he wanted.   Since King Arthur pulled out the sword in the stone he was loyal to his country land and people.  

Mordred is the evil of Camelot.   Everything he does is the opposite of a chivalrous knight. Him and Morgan La Fey were the ones who P{otted the downfall of Arthur.   When Arthur was in France Mordred tried to marry Guievere which is breaking the one of the codes that says Courtesy to all ladies and he also took over the thrown.   Mordred was the one who killed King Arthur right before he died which breaks the loyalty that a knight is support to show his King.    

The comparison is not really a comparison because the only way they are alike is blood.   If you think of all the good that Arthur did like use the powers of Excalibur to good and not evil, and serve his country with Liberality, Honor, Good Faith.   Then think of the opposite of King Arthur that and you get Mordred someone who doesn\'t respect for all worthy people, Protect the innocent or any of the Codes of Chivalry.  

I think King Arthur is the most true to the code of chivalry.   I hope you see the same but my comparisons.   Always do good evil will never really win in life. suzuki1
