Erec and Enide Day 2

We finally see Enide's character in the second part of the text as someone who is so devoted to the other people in her life. Its obvious that she is very much in love with Erec and tries to do right by him. She met him as a noble brave knight and wants him to stay that way. She is finally named at her wedding because without her name she isn't truly married. For a moment I thought that Erec was going to fo from calling her "maiden" to calling her "wife." She tries to do right by Erec because she doesn't want anything bad to him nor does she want anyone to speak badly about him, especially if its her fault. In my opinion, she does truly love Erec. Erec, on the other hand, needs to learn how to appreciate Enide, because he's taking her for granted. Everything that she did was to save his life and yet he kept on threatening her. She's not just a beautiful face; Enide is in every way devoted to Erec and he needs to see that.
