3 Put the parts of this text in the logical order to get a tale about King Arthur.
How the Round Table Began
1. The knights sat at the Round Table and in every seat was the name of the knight, written in letters of gold, but two seats were empty. After that young Gawain [???: we?n] came to the king and asked him to make him a knight on the day that he should wed Guinevere [??w?n?v??]. “That I will do gladly, ” replied the King, “for you are my sister’s son. ”
2. Merlin and a company of knights rode to the court of King Leodegrance [?li: ??d??r?ns] to tell him that King Arthur decided to wed his daughter. King Leodegrance was happy to hear this news as he had a lot of respect for King Arthur. He also gave Arthur the Round Table, where a hundred and fifty knights could sit at a time.
3. “Sir, ” replied the man, “my name is Aries [?e?ri: z] the cowherd. I have thirteen sons who help me, but this boy will do nothing but shoot or go to watch battles and look at knights. ”
“What is your name?” said Arthur, turning to the young man.
“Sir, my name is Tor. ”
“Where is your sword that I may knight you?” said the king.
“It is here, my lord. ” Then Tor jumped off his horse, pulled out his sword and knelt before the King, asking that he might be made a knight and a knight of the Round Table.
“I will make you a Knight, ” said Arthur, “but the further will show if you can become a knight of the Round Table. ”
4. After King Arthur had fought and conquered many enemies, he decided it was time for him to get married and asked Merlin for advice.
“It’s well, ” replied Merlin, “that you should take a wife, but is there a woman that you love better than another?”
“Yes, ” said Arthur, “I love Guinevere, daughter of Leodegrance, King of Cameliard [?k?mlj?: d]. This maiden is the fairest that I have ever seen or ever shall see. I want you to go to Cameliard and tell Guinevere’s father that I want to marry his daughter. ”
5. As he was speaking, a poor man entered the court bringing with him a young man about eighteen years old. The man went and stood before the King: “I have heard, King Arthur, that at the time of your marriage you would give any man the gift he should ask for. If it is true, please make my son a knight. ”
“It is the great gift to ask, ” answered the King.
6. Soon King Arthur heard that Merlin and the knights were coming back with Guinevere and the Round Table. He was filled with joy and ordered that Sir Lancelot should ride and meet the future Queen and bring her to him. The preparations for the marriage began. “Now, Merlin, ” said the King, “go and look about my kingdom and bring fifty of the bravest and most famous knights that can be found throughout the land. ” But no more than eight and twenty knights could Merlin find. With these Arthur had to be content.
