Question

What was the real reason King Mark wanted to make La Belle his bride? Multiple choice

Answer 1

Now King Mark said all this by reason of his craft and treachery. He had heard how Sir Tristram had
been full of the praises of La Belle Isoude, while yet, as he had learned, Sir Tristram had not
promised himself in love to her. By his crafty speech King Mark had hoped to make Sir Tristram
promise to go to Ireland to obtain her, not for himself, but for King Mark. So, therefore, if the king
5 married La Belle Isoude, this would cause some grief and hurt to Sir Tristram.
But King Mark cared not overmuch whether he wedded La Belle Isoude or not. He believed that Sir
Tristram would of a surety be slain by the kin of Sir Marhaus in Ireland, and, if so, King Mark's plotwould succeed to the full.
