1.  The animal(s) the lord hunts are symbolic of Sir Gawain.  Please attempt to depict or present the symbolic connection(s) between Gawain and the Fox.  You may do this any way you like, but make the connection obvious with explanations and copious textual references.  Copious textual references means you should provide either quoted moments of chapter 3 or write the lines that show this moment.  

2.  Read chapter 4 of Sir Gawain-one is attached below.

3. There will be a quiz on Friday. The quiz will be mostly reading and comprehension questions over chapter 4, but there will be a few questions about Gawain's knighthood and character.  Please read and look over the notes about the middle age romance.
